        "raw_content": "How The Best Wyoming April Fools\u2019 Joke Began + 10 More\nRich Ferguson via YouTube\nIt was a Cinderella story about the Wyoming State Porcupines basketball team going undefeated for the 3rd year in a row. It had cred, coming out of NBC\u2019s Dick Engberg and Al McGuire, complete with television graphics to make it look official. No one questioned the story, even though the team never made it to March Madness.\n\u201cHey, look at this. Here\u2019s a new entry, Wyoming State. We don\u2019t know a lot about the Porcupines, but they haven\u2019t lost a game in three years.\u201d\n- NBC\u2019s Dick Enberg April Fools\u2019 joke\nWyoming made it to national attention with that April Fools\u2019 joke, thanks to the power of network television. For you and me, we put Saran Wrap under the toilet seat or sugar in the salt shaker for April Fool\u2019s Day. But how did it start?\nThe History Channel speculates it dates back to 1582 in France when the people were making the change from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar which saw start of the new year moved to January 1 instead of the last week of March through April 1. They became the butt of jokes and hoaxes. They list other possible origins as well.\nWhat\u2019s your best joke or prank?\nFiled Under: Best, History, prank, Wyoming",

He was the son of Abu''l-Fadl al-Bal''ami (also called Bal''am-i Buzurg; \u201cBal''ami the Elder\u201d). Muhammad was appointed vizier during the late reign of Abd al-Malik I (r. 954-961) and he kept holding the office under Abd al-Malik''s successor Mansur I (r. 961-976). According to Gardizi, Muhammad died in March 974 while serving in office, but according to the Persian historian al-Utbi, he was later removed the vizierate office, but was reappointed as the vizier of Nuh II (r. 976-997), but later retired in 992, and later died at an unknown between his retirement to 997.\nMuhammad''s most famous work is Tarikh-e Bal''ami, which is a translation of Tabari''s History of the Prophets and Kings. It contains supplementary material, some of which is found nowhere else. Having been written in 963, it is the oldest New Persian prose work after the preface of the Shah-nama by Abu Mansur Muhammad.\nTags:Balami, History of the Prophets and Kings, Marv, Persian, Samanid, Shah, Tabari, Wikipedia\nAdd definition or comments on Balami\nUpon approval, your definition will be listed under: Balami",

The event which helps to raise awareness and funds for one of the world\u2019s biggest killers (cancer) has pledged an astonishing $111 million with the help of this star-studded event. Academy award winner Bradley Cooper, who executive produced the show has a special place in his heart for this particular cause as unfortunately he lost his father to lung cancer and Celine Dion who also lost her beloved husband and brother within days of each other earlier this year.\nSome of the other celebrity guests and performers included, Keith Urban, Charlie Puth and Little Big Town as well as attendees, Marcia Cross, Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson and Ben Affleck, to name a few. The Stand Up To Cancer event helps to assist the funding and approach to translational research, as well as the crucial delivery of new therapy for patients. Stand Up To Cancer is a way of bringing together scientists from different areas and institutions to work together in finding the best and latest research. By having so many famous famous faces behind such an important cause to raise awareness, all of the donations that are received from people all over the world contribute directly to cancer research programs.\nIf you missed the live telecast of the show which was both emotional, inspirational and amazing, it is now available for live streaming on Hulu. For more information on the event and to continue donating to this worthy cause, be sure to go to the official website at: www.su2cshow.org and keep spreading awareness of the importance to help this worldwide issue receive the coverage it deserves.

Unfortunately one of them has died so I won't be getting anything off that. The other one however has turned up some gems from my past. I'm not done sorting yet, but I took some time out to package up an old project I found so I could release it.\nSalamander Control Suite (SCS) is a utility I wrote a few years back to help out the tech support guys. At that point it was called VNC Manager but it turns out that already exists, so before I could release it I had to rename it. Can't remember where Salamander came from - I'm sure it's not a great story!\nAnyhoo, I left the company I was working for at the time about 3 years back and since then I've had no interaction with VNC at all so the project holds very little interest for me these days. So I decided to package it up and release the code in case it's of any use to anyone.\nLicense-wise I feel no need to control this source in any way, so I'm putting it into the public domain. However, if you use it I'd really love it if you could drop me an email at stuart -at- stut.net. Enjoy.\n\u00ab The end of PHP 4 is nigh!\nInconsiderate shared hosting customers \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "I am REALLY starting to like this guy. Here he speaks not only of the origins of the elite fabricating non-existent barriers between the races, he implores us to rise above the facade. \"The people united, will never be defeated\"!! \"The people united, will never be defeated\"!!\nFrom the DVD:The Pathology of Privilege Racism, White Denial & the Costs of Inequality\nFor years, acclaimed author and speaker Tim Wise has been electrifying audiences on the college lecture circuit with his deeply personal take on whiteness and white privilege. In this spellbinding lecture, the author of White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son offers a unique, inside-out view of race and racism in America. Expertly overcoming the defensiveness that often surrounds these issues, Wise provides a non-confrontational explanation of white privilege and the damage it does not only to people of color, but to white people as well. This is an invaluable classroom resource: an ideal introduction to the social construction of racial identities, and a critical new tool for exploring the often invoked - but seldom explained - concept of white privilege.\nYou may view this and related videos at this YouTube link: WHITE PRIVILEGE\nPosted by Servant2All at 12:34 AM\nLabels: racism, Tim Wise, white privilege",

Prince talk to some fans who snuck in for a moment - The Beautiful Ones (short instr. )\nUniondale's most extreme moment came near the end, at which time Prince climbed some stairs on the stage with the deliberation, fear and awe of Moses approaching the burning bush. His destination: A giant purple tub. \u201cDo you wanna spend the night? Do you wanna take a bath with me?\u201d he chortled as he raised his hips heavenward.\nHis opening song, \u201cLet\u2019s Go Crazy,\u201d began with an intonation that is perhaps the clearest explanation of his philosophy. \u201cDearly beloved,\u201d he recited, as a church organ moaned, \u201cwe are gathered here today to get through this thing called life . . . this life thing\u2019s much harder than in the afterworld . . . and if the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy.\u201d\nHe did, too, with James Brown splits and Jackie Wilson knee-dives, with Jimi Hendrix-inspired guitar sweeps: Traditional show business at a high level of execution. The first run of songs was manic, peak-experience stuff, seemingly impossible to sustain. The message was in the titles: \u201cLet\u2019s Go Crazy,\u201d \u201cDelirious,\u201d \u201c1999\u201d (with its organ introduction borrowed cleverly from The Band\u2019s 1968 \u201cChest Fever\u201d), \u201cLittle Red Corvette\u201d and \u201cTake Me With U.\u201d Quoth Prince: \u201cYou ain\u2019t seen nuthin yet.\u201d\nHe was almost right. The set didn\u2019t falter until almost the end. The three-keyboard treatment of \u201cThe Beautiful Ones\u201d seemed marginal, and the guitar introduction to the finale, \u201cPurple Rain,\u201d lasted longer than the song. But \u201cBaby, I\u2019m a Star,\u201d with Jerome Benton leading a conga line of dancers across the stage, gave zip to the final phase, while Wendy Melvoin\u2019s guitar solo on \u201cWhen Doves Cry\u201d was the embodiment of the set \u2014 muscular, passionate and soaring.",

This has allowed them to start an additional rock cut and begin bridge construction at the Horseshoe curve during this winter\u2019s full closure, but there is a still a lot of work to go after the canyon opens.\nOn Oct. 17, 2016, the canyon closed to all through-traffic in order to maintain public safety during heavy rock blasting work. Since then, noticeable progress has been made, allowing for work originally scheduled for later this year to begin early. Kiewit has blasted approximately 180,000 cubic yards of rock and hauled over 225,000 cubic yards \u2013 for comparison that\u2019s the equivalent volume of 15,000 concrete mixer trucks \u2013 of material, since closing the highway.\nJust prior to the Memorial Day weekend, US 34 will open for everyone to travel, and the project team is committed to keeping the canyon open for travel this summer. The canyon remains closed to through-traffic until then. The businesses in the canyon remain open.\nSource: Highway 34 to Open in Big Thompson Canyon Before Memorial Day\nFiled Under: Highway 34",

It\u2019s time to find the perfect home!\nTogether, we will sit down to discuss your list of needs, as well as your list of wants. I will then begin a search in the MLS\u00ae system to send you all of the listings that fit your criteria. I will also continue to send you new listings as they come on the market. These listings will be sent to you in a custom Client Portal where you\u2019ll have the ability to Favorite or Trash listings, you\u2019ll also be able to mark them as Possibilities or leave comments or questions for me regarding specific listings.\nhome style \u2013 condo apartment, condo townhouse, single family home\nfeatures \u2013 garage, yard, basement suite\ninclusions \u2013 appliances,\nIt\u2019s a good idea to make a list of your needs and your wants so you can better focus your search. What are you must-haves? What are you willing to do without?\nProperty size is one common primary consideration for buyers. Your real estate professional is going to talk to you about property size, and the Residential Measurement Standard (RMS) in Alberta. Real estate professionals in Alberta must use the RMS when describing a residential property\u2019s size.\nThe RMS offers a consistent means of representing the property\u2019s above grade space, and it sets out what parts of a property can be included in its measured-area. If property size is important to you, tell your representative, and take steps to verify the size rather than relying on the seller\u2019s representation.\nKeep in mind, though, that a property\u2019s size isn\u2019t the only thing sellers are using to set a listing price for their home. Two homes, with the exact same measurements, are unlikely to sell at the same price. The price of a home also depends on location features, d\u00e9cor, and upkeep.\nBeyond the size, location, and specific features of a home \u2013 there are additional things to think about and ask about as you look at properties: material latent defects and stigmatized properties.\nMaterial latent defects are defects a person cannot discover with reasonable care during an inspection. They include defects that:\nYou may also want to discuss stigmatized properties with your real estate professional. The term \u201cstigmatized\u201d means an unfavourable quality in a property or one that may make the property less attractive or unattractive to some buyers. Buyers may avoid stigmatized properties for reasons that are unrelated to the physical condition or features. Stigmas may include:\nIf there are certain stigmas that matter to you, you need to talk to your real estate professional about them. Because these type of stigma are not material latent defects, the seller is not required to answer your questions, but if they choose to answer \u2013 they must do so honestly. If they refuse to answer, you\u2019ll have to decide if you\u2019re comfortable proceeding without the information.\nSpecial Listing Situations\nSome listings may say \u201cas-is, where-is\u201d or \u201cjudicial sale/foreclosure.\u201d\nIn an as-is, where-is sale, there is no guarantee as to the property\u2019s condition. There can be a significant amount of risk in buying an as-is, where-is listing.\nA judicial sale is the sale of real property under the authority and supervision of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench. The property may be offered at a lower than expected price, but there will be conditions attached to the home\u2019s sale. For example:\nyou may not have access to condominium documents\nyour purchase may require approval through the Courts, which can significantly delay it proceeding \u2013 if at all\nthere may be a set minimum deposit\nit\u2019s possible in a foreclosure situation, right up until possession day, that the sale can fall through\nYou\u2019ll need to carefully weigh these restrictions against the fact the property may look like a good deal.",

She was author of \u2018Awakening the Mind: A Guide to Harnessing the Power of Your Brainwaves\u2018 (Tarcher Putnam 2002) and \u2018The High Performance Mind \u2013 Mastering Brainwaves for Insight, Healing, and Creativity\u2018 (Tarcher Putnam 1995, 2nd. edition 2004).\nAnna was a Founding Board Member of the European Association for Humanistic Psychology based in Geneva, Switzerland. She was also an internationally recognized workshop leader in Europe, and a Director of The Natural Dance Workshop in London from 1975-1981, with James MacRitchie. In 1981 Anna returned to Boulder, Colorado, with Jim, where they were Co-Directors of The Evolving Institute.\nAnna was a contributing author of The Art of Survival \u2013 A Guide to Yoga Therapy (Unwin Hyman Ltd. 1987) with her chapter \u201cBiofeedback Meditation and the Awakened Mind,\u201d where she first published her groundbreaking new material which included identifying alpha brainwaves as the bridge between the conscious and the subconscious mind. She also recognized that it is the interrelationship of the peak frequencies of beta, alpha, theta, and delta that distinguishes the awakened mind. By understanding and working with the importance of the relationship between the state and the content of consciousness, she developed her protocol for brainwave training that forms the basis of her work. In 1981, she began her Awakened Mind\u2122 program in the United States. In 1988 she founded The Anna Wise Center, moved to San Francisco and finally settling in Marin County. In 2007, she relocated to Berkeley, CA.\nOver the next decade, Anna created her curriculum for training others to be practitioners, and refined her understanding of mastery, traveling throughout the world studying the brainwaves of masters. She created numerous CDs of guided meditations, including a set of recordings of meditations from her books, and music with binaural beat frequencies for meditation, healing and awakening, and was one of the premier artists in the new field of frequency composition.\nShe held Diplomates in Neurotherapy and Peak Performance, and her M.A. was in Humanistic Psychology. She was an early member of the Academy of Certified Neurotherapists. She wrote, lectured, worked as a consultant and enjoyed leading seminars at Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California. Anna taught biofeedback meditation and brainwave training for three decades and led workshops and seminars throughout the United States, and in Europe, South America, and Asia.",

        "title": "The Right Kind of Environmentalism - The Archives: Eternity Bible College",
        "raw_content": "The environment can be a polarizing issue. Talk too much about caring for the earth and you risk being branded a liberal, as though recycling is the equivalent of compromising the gospel. I have heard well-known Christian leaders that I respect advocate depleting the earth\u2019s resources and polluting with gusto because God is going to destroy the world anyway.\nA college student once asked me after a church service if the church recycled its bulletins. I explained to her that, no, we don\u2019t recycle the bulletins, and that we don\u2019t need to go crazy caring for the environment because we know that the world will end when Jesus returns. I wish I could have those words back.\nThe simple truth is that our stewardship of creation matters. Francis Schaeffer used to explain that environmentalists were misguided in appealing to pantheism in supporting their cause. Why? Because they really should be appealing to the Christian worldview!\nPantheism would seem to be a good foundation for environmentalism. If everything is God, then we honor the divine by treating the grass, trees, and animals well. But Schaeffer explains that pantheism is an impersonal religion. If everything is God, then God is nothing more than an impersonal force. So why try to appease an impersonal force? There is no motivation to adjust our actions based on the existence of an impersonal entity.\nChristianity, on the other hand, teaches us that this world was created by God. Every leaf, every ant, every drop of water was lovingly crafted by the Maker himself. And having created it all, he declared our world \u201cvery good.\u201d Sure, it has been stained by sin, but sin is just that: a stain, not the fabric itself. In fact, Paul explains that the creation is groaning under the weight of sin and longs for the redemption that will come at Christ\u2019s return (see Rom. 8). So the stain of sin is no reason to treat the environment badly any more than it is a reason to treat unredeemed people badly.\nIf you\u2019re not convinced that God\u2019s creation is still worth caring about, take a lesson from the incarnation. By taking on flesh and becoming a human being, Jesus was again validating the essential goodness of creation. If creation had become evil at the fall, then Jesus could not have become a part of it. So Jesus affirmed the goodness of creation and made clear his intention to redeem it.\nIf Christians are going to care for the environment, then we have to subscribe to the right kind of environmentalism. Some pursue a biocentric environmentalism, in which the natural world is said to have intrinsic value and therefore is to be protected. Others go for an anthropocentric environmentalism, in which the environment is protected and/or utilized in whichever ways best serve human ends. But neither of these approaches should satisfy the Christian. Rather, we should go with a theocentric environmentalism, in which we view the natural world as the good creation of God and therefore steward it appropriately to his glory.\nNot only did God create a good world, but he specifically placed human beings in the midst of it and tasked them \u201cto work it and keep it\u201d (Gen. 2:5, 15). If part of God\u2019s intention in creating humanity was to have an under-ruler who could care for his world, then we\u2019re missing the point pretty badly by trashing his world rather than stewarding it. So let\u2019s be environmentalists. But let\u2019s also make sure we\u2019re being the right kind of environmentalists.\nPrevious articleA Christian Response to a Finished Election\nNext articleBob Dylan & the Search for Meaning\nChristian Pacifism November 8, 2012 at 7:35 am\nThe sad case shown in your opening example stands along side its opposite in those evangelical leaders that have been swept along by the hysteria about global warming. There has been a new resurgence of this with the all the propaganda that has come out relating it to hurricane Sandy.http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204840504578089413659452702.html?mod=googlenews_wsj\nhttp://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/11/07/job-candidate-tells-bloomberg-to-take-this-job-and-over-global-warming-cover/\nI do happen to care about the environment. I am an organic farmer. But too many Christians have been taken in by the global warming propaganda. They need to stop reading the bulletins of Minitrue and read actual climate scientists like MIT\u2019s Richard LIndzen, and our fellow Christians who are outstanding in the climate field like Dr. John Christy and Dr. Roy Spencer.\nMarkBeuving November 8, 2012 at 9:18 pm\nGood caution. It\u2019s also important that we don\u2019t let our God-centered concern for his creation become an idol in our lives. I\u2019ve seen that happen as well.",

        "raw_content": "Professional Development, SEI, Visual Resources Association (VRA)\nWritten by courtneylbaron on February 12th, 2018 December 19th, 2018 . Leave a comment\nAre you a student or new professional interested in art librarianship, visual resources, or digital humanities? If so, you should consider attending the Summer Educational Institute (SEI) for Visual Resources and Image Management in Albuquerque, NM on June 5-8, 2018. This annual workshop, a joint project of the Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) and the Visual Resources Association Foundation (VRAF), provides information professionals with the latest technologies and tools to be successful in the rapidly changing field of visual resources. This year the curriculum includes intellectual property rights, digitization standards and process monitoring, metadata, digital preservation, digital curation, and digital humanities. The skills you gain from attending a workshop like SEI will supplement your library school coursework and can help you land a job in this field.\nHere\u2019s what two former attendees have to say about their experience:\n\u201cSEI was an invaluable experience for me, particularly as a newcomer to the Visual/Digital Resources field. I attended SEI in 2017, having just recently been hired as the Visual Resources Librarian at the University of New Hampshire. The curriculum was just what I needed. In my day-to-day work, I now find myself constantly referring back to things I learned at SEI, from best practices in digitization, to copyright issues, to implementing and managing Digital Humanities projects. In addition to the practical knowledge I gained at SEI, I also met an amazing group of colleagues from across the country. It was comforting to know that others in my position are dealing with the same challenges I face, especially as the Visual Resources and Digital Resources fields continue to evolve and change at such a rapid pace. I was also deeply impressed by everyone\u2019s enthusiasm and commitment to their profession, from the instructors and participants, to the organizers. I recommend SEI to anyone wishing to enhance their skills and connect with dedicated colleagues. My belief in SEI\u2019s core mission and values is such, that I volunteered to take on the role of webmaster for SEI 2018. Take a look at the website for detailed information on the curriculum, instructors, and our new venue at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. And feel free to contact me (otto.luna@unh.edu) should you have any questions about attending SEI.\u201d\nOtto Luna, University of New Hampshire\n\u201cMany of my goals and expectations were met or exceeded. The professionals brought in to instruct us were great at imparting their expertise and experience to us through presentations, activities and Q&A. While I was not able to connect with everyone at SEI, there was a community atmosphere developed between attendees, organizers and instructors. It was especially helpful for me, as someone new to the VR sector of librarianship. The most surprising aspect of SEI, for me, was the reassurance that I felt building during my time there. I went in with imposter syndrome, feeling like I was inexperienced and that was the cause of how overwhelmed I felt. I learned a lot about the challenges of my specific position, such as its broad scope. I realized that the breadth of the knowledge that I needed to do my job was a benefit and a challenge. I found that I should be more confident, because I know more have a better understanding of my work than I give myself credit for. While there is no replacement for practical experience, there is a lot to be said for having confidence in the work you do and in decisions you make. SEI provided me with an invaluable experience and one that I will recall often when I am presented with challenges throughout my career. Additionally, because of connections that I made at SEI, I was offered the opportunity to become the Publicity Specialist with the SEI Implementation team.\u201d\nChelsea Stone, Sacred Heart University\nLibrary & Archives Intern (paid) at Toledo Museum of Art",

There will be 10 canvases I'm painting for the inside (not counting the cover, back, etc.) and each canvas has two sides, so there are 20 individual images. I'm done with three canvases now and hope to complete three more by March 1 so I will be almost done for our March 15 deadline. They are fun to do, with similar color palettes and themes -- it's really quite a wonderful idea! It wasn't my idea, but I am happy to be illustrating it. :)\nThis is why I haven't had a chance to post other new art lately, because I've been very involved with this, but I have other stuff brewing as well...and with winter on the way out, the great outdoors beckon soon!...\nLabels: angels, art, books, illustrations, painting\nI usually just do colorful things but I do have a long history of doodling in notebooks to fall back on when I don't want to make a big colorful mess. I'm trying to do more of this in between other projects. Above is with a soft, thick sort of pencil lead. Cheap ones, of course. Lots of smudges.\nI like things that are hiding or veiled, and this started out as a batwing kind of thing like the one in the background on the top sketch. I could do these all day. When I don't have colors, I tend to go with line weirdness and textures, since they kind of seem like colors to me. Certain types of shading or cross hatching...sort of look like colors to me...sort of a synaesthesia thing I guess.\nThis one is the crowd pleaser. A bird or a butterfly or a fish or a peacock.

The 2006-07 season was the most successful for McFerrin, with AU advancing to the Patriot League championship with wins over Navy and Colgate in the first two rounds of the conference tournament. In its eight point loss to Holy Cross, American fell just short in its quest for a first-ever trip to the NCAA Division I Tournament. Last season's championship run marked the first time since the 2004 season that the Eagles advanced to the title game. Mcferrin's squad finished the season 13-19 overall, with a 6-8 conference record, with her 13 wins being the most posted in a season during her reign at American University. McFerrin is now 32-56 overall. McFerrin's first recruiting class continue to prove themselves as successful. Junior transfer Liz Hayes (Easton, Pa./Easton) was named Patriot League Scholar Athlete of the Year this past season, while also earning Second Team All-Patriot League. Hayes and sophomore Nicole Ryan (Safety Harbor, Fla./Clearwater) represented the Eagles on the Patriot League All-Tournament Team, while Sahar Nusseibeh (Uniontown, Ohio/North Canton Hoover) was named to the All-Patriot League Rookie Team in 2005-06. In her second season with the Eagles, McFerrin's squad had a 7-21 overall record, posting a 4-9 record in the Patriot League. In her first season with the squad, AU women's basketball earned a 12-16 overall record, tying McFerrin for most wins by a first year head coach in AU history. American went 7-7 in the Patriot League, earning the fourth seed in the 2005 PL Tournament. No stranger to success, McFerrin has championship experience at both the college and professional level. As an assistant coach she led Ohio State and Minnesota to the Final Four in 1993 and 2004, respectively. The Golden Gophers also reached the Sweet 16 in 2003, with McFerrin as part of the coaching staff. In 1997, she helped guide the New York Liberty to the WNBA Finals. McFerrin came to American in 2004 from the University of Minnesota, where she was an associate head coach for the previous two seasons and was responsible for coordinating the Golden Gophers' offense and recruiting efforts. During her two-year tenure, McFerrin helped the UM teams to a combined 50-15 record and a trip to the NCAA Sweet 16 in 2003 and the Final Four in 2004. Both of McFerrin's recruiting classes were ranked top-20 nationally. Furthermore, McFerrin mentored Lindsay Whalen and Janel McCarville, both of whom earned All Big Ten honors and were named Kodak All-Americans. McFerrin spent five seasons in the WNBA ranks prior to her time at Minnesota, beginning as an assistant coach with the New York Liberty. In her inaugural season in New York, McFerrin helped guide the Liberty to a runner-up showing. Washington, D.C., is not unfamiliar territory for McFerrin. She spent three seasons with the Washington Mystics, including her final two seasons as general manager. In McFerrin's first season as GM, the Mystics made their first-ever appearancein the WNBA playoffs. McFerrin has experienced success at every coaching stop. She spent seven years as an assistant at Ohio State University, during which time her 1993 squad won the Big Ten and finished as national runner up. McFerrin's 1992 recruiting class was ranked the top incoming freshmen class in the nation, and her six other recruiting classes were tabbed in the top-20 nationally. In six seasons as an assistant at Central Michigan University, McFerrin helped guide the Chippewas to 95 wins and the 1985 Mid-American Conference championship. During her time at CMU, she earned a master's degree in physical education. A native of Cassville, Mo., McFerrin was a four-year letterwinner and a starting point guard for the University of Missouri between 1979 and 1983. She led the Tigers to a 88-37 record in her four years and a Big Eight Tournament championship and subsequent NCAA Tournament appearance in her senior season. In 1982, her Tiger squad made it to the NCAA Sweet 16. McFerrin graduated cum laude with a bachelor of science in secondary education. An accomplished public speaker, McFerrin has addressed governmental organizations, athletic administrators and business executives, as well as making numerous public appearances to raise funds and promote ticket sales. McFerrin is also an 18-year member of the Women's Basketball Coaches Association and has served on the USA Basketball National Team Selection Committee.",

        "raw_content": "Would it be enough to give up your job and retire on? A million was a fortune when I was young, but you seem to need a billion now to be rich. Many family homes in some parts of the UK cost a million these days. In the town I live in, a home costing half a million isn\u2019t usual and this is a deprived area, according to the people who made it deprived\u2026\nThe Bank of England constantly increases the money supply, effectively devaluing money. It has been worse in the past few years, with it\u2019s 375 billion of quantitative easing (printing money). they say they are trying to keep inflation down, but we see commodities like energy (gas and electricity), water bills and petrol keep going up. Inflation has been up to 5%, effectively devaluing money by 5% a year. You would need to invest your money well to retire on even a modest inflation proof income. There would be no point in having a savings account at a bank paying less than inflation.\nI think with a million pounds, I would invest it. It would be reasonable to spend a little of the money and invest the rest. What would you invest it in though? I think property would be a wise investment. That could simply be a house to live in or a property for a business. It could be a house to live in and a property to rent out for a small income. That would take care of a couple of hundred thousand for me. I don\u2019t need a mansion. It would take too many cleaners to keep it nice!\nI would also invest on the stock market. That would be difficult. Many blue chip companies are now safe harbours and their share price is too high. I would definitely think carefully about investing in shares. I do have some experience investing in shares. Bonds can be a safe bet, but interest rates are very low and bond prices high. I think I would buy some corporate bonds, just so I was diversifying. I am a fan of social lending and so would probably put at least 50,000 into peer-to-peer lending like Zopa and Funding Circle.\nWith your million being devalued by up to a 1,000 pounds a week, it wouldn\u2019t be easy finding suitable things to invest in. At one time, government and local government bonds were a good bet, but now you can\u2019t trust governments. It would be easier and less risky, if you had a billion to invest, then you have some power too.\nI would spend a little of the money rather than invest it all. I would definitely have a new camera. I\u2019m not sure about a new car, I like the one I have. I could have it customised! Many people tend to feel a sense of excitement when they go shopping and gain some sort sense of prestige from it. I don\u2019t much like shopping and so perhaps that would protect me from excessive spending! I could spend a fortune shopping on the internet though. I would like a really expensive camera to take pictures for my blogs. I would probably have a new laptop too. My biggest expenditure would be on my garden I think, I would have it landscaped and made easy for a gardener to maintain. No, I still wouldn\u2019t do it! So, I would be happy spending a few thousand and investing the rest. What sort of income could I hope for after I had taken inflation into account? Assuming I had 800,000 invested. I would have more than enough from investments to keep me happy.\nWhat do you think? Would you consider yourself rich if you were a millionaire? What would you spend money on? Would you invest for the future or spend, spend, spend? There is a Euro millions rollover draw on Friday and another Lotto draw on Saturday, I suppose someone has to win. Why not me?\nThis entry was posted on November 8, 2012.

        "raw_content": "Browse > Home / Headlines, Letters to the Editor, Life, Opinion, Politics / LETTER: City Of Burien\u2019s \u2018Propaganda Machine Is Trying To Spin\u2019 Berk Report\nLETTER: City Of Burien\u2019s \u2018Propaganda Machine Is Trying To Spin\u2019 Berk Report\nHow interesting to read the rosy interpretation of the BERK report in the Burien City News (Sept. 2011) and how it differs from the full report. It is surprising the city propaganda machine is trying to spin the newest BERK report to suggest that Burien really can afford to annex White Center. In their 2007 report, BERK made it clear that Burien could not afford to annex White Center. In the most current report BERK suggests that with a possible infusion of millions of dollars through sales tax credits (that lasts only ten years) Burien could afford to manage White Center for 10 years. However Burien will not receive funding to fix the Proposed Annexation Area\u2019s crumbling infrastructure which will cost anywhere from $46 million to $77 million to repair. The BERK report also states that at the end of the 10th year, Burien will have a -24% deficit in its budget and there is no explanation of how White Center\u2019s infrastructure deficit will ever be paid for. In addition, without the excess sales tax monies, Burien will be in the same financial position that was pointed out in the 2007 BERK report which showed the city could not afford to annex White Center.\nIt really makes one wonder why the City Manager and the City Council refuse to accept the negative side of the report. Perhaps it is because the City Manager has tried to convince the City Council for two years, that everything is just great with the Burien budget. This new BERK report suggests this position is not true and has not been true for the last couple of years. Could it be the City Manager sees the promised sales tax credit as a way to get some monies to cover the shortfall in the city\u2019s budget, without having to face the hard issues? (Like no more salary increases for staff, reducing staff, cutting monies from the less important and less urgent projects in the city or raising taxes) Before the city takes on any more debt or further annexations, now seems to be the sensible time to table annexation and instead discuss bringing the city budget in line with the revenues it is taking in. No way will annexation of the PAA fix Burien\u2019s budget problems. Should they proceed with the annexation, the actual city deficit dollars will be significantly larger at the end of 10 years.\n\u2013 Robert C Howell\nPosted by Scott Schaefer on Sunday, September 4, 2011 at 11:23 am\nFiled under Headlines, Letters to the Editor, Life, Opinion, Politics \u00b7 Tagged with Annexation, berk report, Burien, City Council, letter to the editor, news, Opinion, Politics\n16 Responses to \u201cLETTER: City Of Burien\u2019s \u2018Propaganda Machine Is Trying To Spin\u2019 Berk Report\u201d\nWhat do you think about annexation and the Berk Report? You can discuss this issue in our online forum at the following URL:\nWhat\u2019s your opinion of the proposed White Center Annexation?\nGinger B says:\nI would like to know why only the residents of the proposed annexation area and not the current residents of Burien get to vote on this matter if our council members decide to go forward with this plan.\nWe (Burien citizens) should have a voice in whether we want this or not.\nAny one else agree?\nAbsolutely agree, Ginger!\nMarian H says:\nAbsolutely agree \u2013 isn\u2019t that a form of taxation without representation? We, the current taxpayer citizens, have this forced on us without being able to vote on it.\nHere is the answer to your question Ginger:\nElection method \u2014 Conduct of election.\nAn annexation election shall be held in accordance with the general election laws of the state, and only registered voters who have resided in the area proposed to be annexed for ninety days immediately preceding the election shall be allowed to vote therein.\nIn other words, until the Legislature changes it, it\u2019s the law.\nSo, other than petitioning our 34th district legislators, Sharon Nelson, Eileen Cody and Joe Fitzgibbons, there\u2019s really nothing that we can do about changing the law? At best, the legislature may entertain the idea of maybe considering looking into blah, blah blah\u2026, meanwhile, we are powerless to do anything about getting our opinions conveyed.\nIt seems the only other option that we have is to make our Burien City Council members aware of our dis-pleasure, which might make us feel better temporarily, but ultimately, It seems that the majority of the members, along with City Manager Mike Martin, already have their minds made up. Obviously, there\u2019s something going on that we are not privy to.\nI\u2019m feeling pretty helpless here.\nHas it occurred to you that opposition to annexation might be a minority position?\nYawn\u2026And the annexation saga continues\u2026.how long has this been going on now? For over eight years.\nMy prediction: This next annexation (if it actually goes to a vote) will not pass.\nNext topic please\u2026\nWhether you\u2019re for or against annexation I urge you to show up at the next City Council meeting. Please assume that the Council does NOT read the b-townblog or your comments (Sorry Scott!) and show up and raise your concerns. I\u2019ve had meetings with some of them and can tell you that they DO listen to citizen comments and take them all seriously.\nAt the August 22nd special session on annexation I think 5 or 6 citizens spoke (including me) and if you ONLY went with the questions/comments from citizens you\u2019d figure it\u2019s a 50/50 split on the pro/anti camp. So if there is an overwhelming majority against (or for) annexation it is not being heard.\nFormer Candidate \u2013 Burien City Council position 4\nYes, Joey is right \u2013 we DO need to let our council members know how we feel about annexation, whether for or against. Too bad there isn\u2019t a better forum than attendance at City Council meetings, which make it difficult to hear from more than a handful of people. Even though the Council members may not read the Burien Blog, perhaps an on-line poll on the subject might give an indication of how the citizens of Burien feel. It may or may not be statistically valid, but at least it would be an indicator. Sadly, in the end, it looks like it is up to the City Council and the citizens of the area in question to decide for us.\n@Bonnie:\n\u201cSadly,\u201d in the end? Pardon me if I have a tough time understanding your reaction. Council members are elected and they can be unelected. That is the key to representative democracy. If you have a position that your elected representatives do not share, then if you think that is sufficient reason to oppose their re-election, by all means you should do so.\nIf you are unsuccessful, then you can by and large assume that the majority of the voters did not share your position. That is how our political system works. Are you \u201csad\u201d that this is the case, or only \u201csad\u201d because your agenda might be denied?\nIn the case of annexation, it is clear to me that six of the present seven council members have concluded that annexation is favored by the majority, and that it is in the best long-term interests of the City of Burien. You might not get that impression from reading the comment threads of B-Town Blog, but opponents of annexation have not yet presented very much evidence that they represent a majority position.\nNow if Krakowiak is re-elected, and if Shaw and Robison are defeated, then it would be reasonable to assume that opposition to annexation was a more viable, representative position than it appears to be right now. So if you don\u2019t want annexation to proceed, then get to work in this election campaign.\nIt seems to me that Bob Edgar\u2019s strong showing as a \u201cnon candidate\u201d and Lucy\u2019s win in the primary, is a strong indication of the majority of the Burien voters\u2019 views on annexation.\nMaybe it is. But remember that the general election turnout is always a lot higher.\nThaHammer says:\n\u201cIf you are unsuccessful, then you can by and large assume that the majority of the voters did not share your position.\u201d\nPoliticians are often put into office by 1) a small vocal minority 2) a small vocal minority that harasses and bullies their constituents to vote as they do 3) offices are bought and paid for 4) and very often voter fraud.\nJust because a person holds and office doesn\u2019t mean that they should be there.\nUnqualified incumbents kept in office over the past 10 years has put our nation in the grim situations that it is in now. Party hacks like Ivan are the reason that these unqualified people stay in office. They care more about power plays than helping their neighbors or communities. I\u2019m \u201csad\u201d everytime I read this cranks posts.\n@ThaHammer:\nIf \u201cparty hacks like Ivan are the reason that these unqualified people stay in office,\u201d it\u2019s because we work at politics and government, and the likes of you don\u2019t. So if and when you outwork us, then you can reap the benefits of your labor. Until such time, you can continue to amuse us.\nRobert Howell says:\nIf you have something to say to the city council, an emai to is an easy and effective way to reach them. Your comments will also become a part of the records but they want to know your name and address.",

        "raw_content": "Cocoa PowderDavid Wallace2018-12-19T11:01:51+00:00\nAlso known as dried cocoa, cacao, or natural cocoa powder\nCocoa powder is an ingredient that remains from chocolate liquor manufacturing typically used in baking to add color and flavoring to consumer products. It can be found in baked goods, icings, fudges, sauces and beverages.\nCocoa powder\u2014alternatively spelled \u201ccacao\u201d\u2014is a substance produced from the seed of the cocoa tree. The Aztecs roasted and ground cocoa beans to make a drink called xocoatl. Other pre-conquest civilizations, including the Maya and Pipil\u2013Nicarao, were also said to have used cocoa.\nThis fruit-bearing tree grows large fleshy fruits continuously throughout the year along its trunk. The location of the seed pods on the trees, each containing 30 to 50 seeds, make it an easy product to harvest by hand. In fact, it is estimated that during harvest, a worker can pick around 650 pods per day, which is an amount sufficient to make roughly 65 pounds of chocolate.\nTo make cocoa powder, the beans are thoroughly cleaned, typically a mechanical process, prior to roasting. At this stage, the beans need to be of uniform size to ensure even roasting. Once this process is complete, the shells and germ are removed and the nibs extracted. Then, the beans are ground into chocolate liquor and processed into powder.1\nThe powder is milled from the residue remaining from the cocoa butter extraction process. The fat content ranges of cocoa powder vary from 8 to 24 percent. Typical fat content ranges are:1\n\u201cMost cocoa powder is alkalized during processing to make the chocolate flavor and colors more pronounced,\u201d according to Michael Suas and Frank Wing in Advanced Bread and Pastry: A professional Approach. This process was originally used to prevent powder from lumping or sinking during beverage making, but is now used to modify flavor and color. The process typically involves the use of compounds such as sodium or potassium carbonate or bicarbonate solutions, although manufacturers may use other chemicals. Alkalization has been shown to reduce the number of and antioxidant activity of polyphenols in cocoa powder. 1,2,3\nAlthough cacao is not yet genetically modified, many of the ingredients typically used in conjunction with it to make chocolate items are. With the cacao\u2019s notoriously slow maturity and fruiting rate, work toward developing plants that are disease resistant and high yielding as well as flavorful may eventually involve genetic manipulation.4\n\u201cMost of the cocoa powder produced is sold as an ingredient to other food manufacturers,\u201d according to the Encyclopedia of Food Sciences and Nutrition. It is used in desserts, chocolate milk, and various pastries. \u201cSuch a product should have the necessary quality aspects to meet the needs of the user, regarding microbiology, consistency, purity, and other factors. In the case of cocoa powder this can only be fulfilled when maintaining strict good manufacturing practices.\u201d Product quality is a concern as contaminants including salmonella and other bacteria may be introduced during processing that could persist.5\nIn baked goods, it is typically used at between 5 to 10 percent of flour weight. It may also be used in icing confectionery, sauces, and beverages.\nSince it is a powder, it should be stored in a dry, cool environment.\nCacao products sold in the United States are subject to standards in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations Part 163. The fat content, based on the standard, should have less than 22 percent, but not less than 10 percent fat by weight.6,7\nSuas, M., and F.

        "raw_content": "I've been contemplating this expansion for a while, but I have finally decided to make the leap: today, I opened a Baring The Aegis Tumblr. For those of you who don't know what a Tumblr is... well, there is really no use explaining, is there, but here goes anyway: Tumblr is a microblogging platform and social networking website founded by David Karp and owned by Yahoo! Inc. The service allows users to post multimedia and other content to a short-form blog. The idea is to post and reblog content to form your own page. Social interaction is made easy by the possibility to reply to blog posts, reblog them to add your own commentary, or to contact the blogger directly through a multitude of forms.\nQuite a few of you find this blog through blog posts by Tumblr users, and I quite enjoy that. I'm on Tumblr with a personal blog (and seeing as it's personal and completely non-Hellenic, you aren't getting the link to that) and figured the added work of running a Hellenic Tumblr blog would be offset quite easily by Tumblr's easy blogging features. So, while I have not yet decided how, exactly, this will work, the Tumblr page is up for you to follow.\nAs far as I can figure now, the blog will feature links to the blog itself, reblogs of others when appropriate, and will serve as a way for you to get in touch with me easily. The good thing about Tumblr is that it allows anonymous messaging, so if you've always wanted to ask me something you were a little nervous about, here is your chance. I've opened up all messaging types, so you should even be able to contact me anonimously even if you don't have a Tumblr yourself.\nLabels: personal, tumblr",

It ran for 27 episodes on the Fox network starting in the 1993\u201394 season. Set in the American West of 1893, the series follows its title character, a Harvard-educated lawyer-turned-bounty hunter hired by a group of wealthy industrialists to track and capture outlaw John Bly and his gang. Bruce Campbell plays Brisco, who is joined by a colorful group of supporting characters, including Julius Carry as fellow bounty hunter Lord Bowler and Christian Clemenson as stick-in-the-mud lawyer Socrates Poole. While ostensibly a Western, the series routinely includes elements of the science fiction and steampunk genres. Humor is a large part of the show; the writers attempted to keep the jokes and situations \"just under over-the-top\". A large number of episodes involve the Orb, a powerful device from the future. John Astin plays Professor Wickwire, an inventor who assists Brisco with anachronistic technology including diving suits, motorcycles, rockets, and airships. The search for new technology and progressive ideas, what the writers of the show called \"The Coming Thing\", is a central theme throughout the series.\nAll The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. seasons free streaming\nComments on free The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. episodes on KeckTV",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Truth Behind the Lies\nJon Bostic Didn\u2019t Fit the \u201cBear Player Profile\u201d \u2192\nWith Jared Allen Gone One Way or the Other Willie Young Is the Next Man Up\nBrad Biggs at the Chicago Tribune gives 10 thoughts on Seattle\u2019s win over the Bears. He addresses the fact that linebacker Willie Young was a healthy scratch for the game:\n\u201cYoung was on the field for 19 of the defense\u2019s 57 snaps in Week 2 against the Cardinals and got 21 of 60 in the opener vs. Green Bay, so he had been on the field for 34.2 percent of the snaps. Given the success of the pass rush against the Seahawks, it will be interesting to see how the Bears play the numbers game building the 46-man game-day roster for the Raiders. Clearly some decisions need to be based on special teams.\u201d\nThis article was written before the Bears sold Jared Allen to the Carolina Panthers. The pass rush was, indeed, improved but Allen didn\u2019t have much of a part in that.\nThe Bears hope that Young will continue to get better as he recovers from a torn Achilles tendon injury from last season. Getting him and Lamarr Houston, who is gradually coming back from his own injury, playing time was an issue that they obviously wanted to solve. Like Young, Allen didn\u2019t play special teams and its now evident that one reason the Bears made this trade was to get him onto the active roster.\nAllen\u2019s trade was obviously the beginning of a fire sale for the Bears and there is a lot of speculation that Young, who also doesn\u2019t appear to fit the base 3-4 scheme that the team runs, will be next on the trading block. But for now at least one alternative is that the Allen trade was an effort to get Young more involved. Assuming Young is still here to see the Raiders come to town, the odds are good that we will at least see him in place of Allen as a defensive end in the 4-3 nickel defense that the Bears run. Whether he stays or not might largely depend upon his performance.\nThis entry was posted in Chicago Bears, Oakland Raiders. Bookmark the permalink.",

        "raw_content": "-- Edmund Hillary\nI watched Batman Begins tonight. Love the quote:\nWhy do we fall? So we can learn to pick ourselves up.\nSometimes, in pain we run to escape the shit of our lives. We drown it, ignore it, mask it. But in so doing, we miss the true message.\nWhen a baby that is learning to walk falls down, its natural instinct is to rise and try again. The child seems to know that its true purpose is to walk and to explore all of its rightful abilities. And so the child rises, indefatiguable, and works at it until walking is as obvious and easy as breathing. The best part about this line from the movie is that it captures the middle aspect of this: between falling and walking is learning to pick ourselves up.\nAction comes before behavior. To change ourselves, we start by taking the action to do what we should, and putting ourselves in the location to do that. It starts with a step. Commitment and follow-through and success will come later. A baby succeeds by standing up so that it's in position to walk again.\nAnother line in the movie is:\nIt\u2019s not who you are underneath, but what you do that defines you.\nOr, as I like to say it, it's not the noun of who we want to be, but the verb of who we are. Again, action is everything.\nIf we have an inward goal in our soul to be something we're not yet, or if we want to attain something we don't yet have, we first have to step toward the place that will allow us to get what we want. Then we're in position, childlike, to begin again.\nSomeone once told me that it's not success or failure that defines us, but the effort.\nI read earlier in Creating Minds that creativity is tied at the hip with being childlike. In it, I read that Einstein said:\nHow did it come to pass that I was the one to develop the theory of relativity? The reason, I think, is that a normal adult never stops to think about the problems of space and time. These are things which he has thought of as a child. But my intellectual development was retarded, as a result of which I began to wonder about space and time only when I had already grown up. Naturally, I could go deeper in the problem than a child with normal abilities.\nTo remain as a child while an adult leads to creativity and discovery.\nThe problem is that too often we're cowed by the opinions and judgments of others and we disallow any childlike wonder or childish questions to break free and find air. Instead, we squelch that in ourselves.\nIt has been, for me, in the past two months that I've allowed myself to be shaped by the opinions of others and I've changed some of what I am. No longer. I know who I am. I know what I want to be for myself.\nNow, juxtapose that last paragraph with my decision to paint a heart, which is not something I would do. It seems trivial to think of it, but it's not, really. At what point do we draw the boundary between what is influence by others and what is true of ourselves?\nI think the line is demarcated by the desire for acceptance. If we seek validation from others and change who we are or what we might do to gain approval and be accepted, it's crossing the line. But if we're unconcerned with the approval of others and do it simply to explore, no matter what anyone thinks of the outcome and as long as it doesn't violate our core principles, then it's just trying something new.\nChildren explore and ask questions. Children try new things. In the first attempt, they will fail, and then they laugh at themselves. If they want to succeed at the activity, they'll begin again and they don't worry how foolish they look in the attempt. This is how creativity happens. This is where solutions are born.\nTomorrow, I will call on several retailers with whom I met tonight. Lori, Rich, Patti, Greg, and Jan will all hear from me tomorrow. And I've spoken with a bookstore about carrying my cards. It's a national chain and there's a possibility that they might carry my cards. Lots of good comments from those who saw them.\nI pulled back on my heart card. I can do better. I don't disagree with the heart as a card, but I don't like the design I made. I have something better in mind.\nThe goal: seven retailers by the end of May. I should also have 20 cards by the end of May, although I'm going for 22. The more I talk to people, the more I hear what people like and don't like in a card. \"Less people\" is a strong trend. And with this being Iowa, I need some Iowa-ish cards. Pigs, cows, farmer/field, tractor, etc. Fair enough. I can do that. So those and the heart card take me to 20.\nWell, I'm learning because the market is speaking to me and I'm listening as best I can.\nLesson #1: My market is retailers, not individuals.\nCards with people might be endearing and \"Awwww...\"-inspiring, but they don't sell. Unless the person depicted on the card looks familiar to the one buying it, the card will sit idle - in the land of misfit cards. No \"Charlie-on-the-card.\"\nIf the retailer is from Iowa, they're proud to be an Iowan and they want some cards to reflect Iowa. Bring on the pigs, cows, farms, covered bridges, and so on. I need to paint \"Iowa.\" Heck, I'm even thinking of doing a Hawkeyes card and a Cyclones card. But Iowa sells - in Iowa. Note to self: think regional. Minneapolis will want Vikings, for example.\nSometimes, text in the card will be necessary to sell it to the retailer. I had a woman actually say to me today: \"My market isn't smart enough to fill up a blank card.\" So, the poet/English major in me gets to take a crack at this. Fortunately, my cards are intentionally letter-sized when unfolded and therefore it's easy to print on the inside of them. Text...\nI need to be able to go corporate. I have some trips in my future to sit in front of the buyers for major retailers. Michael's, for example, does this. To sell my cards at Michael's, I would need to get 15 minutes in front of their buyer and pitch my wares.\nI know why the Heart card didn't work for me: I wouldn't frame it to hang in my living room. My goal is not to paint greeting cards, but to paint frameable art.\nAnd finally, I need to change up the style of my painting and do some contemporary designs. My work thus far is more traditional. I missed a couple of retailers today because of this.\nAll good lessons, to which I'm listening and now steering my work. I'm doing some things right, and I'm doing some things wrong. I'm tweaking the wrong toward rightness.\nIn my favor:\nUniversally, the cards are regarded as beautiful and classy.\nThe size of the cards is a seller.\nThe price of the cards is seen as very reasonable.\nWhen compared to other cards in stores, the employees believe that my cards are better than what they currently sell, and they're pretty frank about saying so - to other employees and to management.\nI picked up another retailer today and perhaps a couple more locations. Tomorrow, I drive to Minneapolis for a meeting and on the way there and back, I'll have my camera for taking pictures of rural Iowa and Minnesota.\nIt just occurred to me that I have someone with whom I need to meet. I personally know the guy who runs the local zoo. I might show him my cards and see if he's open to me painting some \"zoo\" cards and selling them there. If so, Terry might have some other ideas for me - he's a top-notch marketer. Plus, he's involved with Iowa's biggest event: the Iowa State Fair. Someone suggested to me today that I paint some State Fair cards. I get that. I may do that. Event cards?? Ragbrai, anyone?\nI realized today that I'm selling not just cards, but my brand. Whether the cards sell in droves - or not - may be immaterial. By simply having my brand in various locations around town, I drive up the value of my work. The more broad the reach (think \"multi-city\"), the higher the value and the more wide the spread and the bigger my audience. Therefore, if I wanted to get a gallery interested in selling my work, the pitch is easier. I'm thankful that I have a logo for my work.\nI suspect that this story will turn out different than I expected, but with persistence I will achieve what I wanted: financial independence and making my living by my art. That's the goal. The path to get there is the adventure, and I'm having a great time of it. Pretty scenic!\nThe Fear of Competition\nSo as I visit various retailers, a theme continues to pop-up: exclusive contracts with other greeting card vendors. Of course, Hallmark is the most notorious and most ubiquitous, but I've encountered this with other vendors as well.\nIt's as though they fear competition.\nNow I'm a pretty determined guy, so obstacles don't faze me much. As I learn from the market about what they want, I'm adjusting. This morning, I asked my display rack supplier if they could fashion a custom rack for me that is smaller and would allow me to display a smaller number of niched cards for retailers. So for coffee merchants, coffee cards; for wine merchants, grape and wine cards; and so on.\nAnd I have other alternatives. Borders was considering my cards, and would have displayed them but for the exclusive contract they have with Marshall Sherman, a greeting card vendor. But that contract is up at the end of the year. Will their next vendor insist on an exclusive arrangement? Not if I can help it. Here comes my letter-writing campaign.\nAn exclusive contract is counter-productive for the merchant: what if another vendor could provide cards that sold in greater volume than their current vendor? Why limit their opportunity to sell? I think that retailers should remain flexible to market conditions and keep their options open with vendors. That certainly seems healthy.\nThis is America, after all. It's a land of choice, where competition abounds. So I'll keep pecking my way out of this egg.\n2 vendors down; 10,998 to go.\nPermission to Engage\nOn the recommendation of a friend, I watched \"Sliding Doors\" tonight. Good movie.\nI started watching it because I was cleaning my desk in search of my ruler, which couldn't be found. I use the ruler to measure out my paintings into 25 cm by 15 cm, which is perfect for my cards. It wasn't until the end of the movie that I looked at my son, Nick, and he looked perplexed.\n\"I thought you were going to paint.\"\n\"I was, but I couldn't find my ruler.\"\n\"Ah...\" and with that, he got up and disappeared and then returned with my ruler.\n\"Thank you! Where was it?\"\n\"In the toy box in the living room. I saw it yesterday.\"\nOf course. The toy box. I should have known.\nDo you ever wonder if there's a reason that certain people appear in our lives as they do? Do you wonder if such things are inevitable?\nI'm no longer much for believing in God's interaction in my life, but I do find it amazing at the timeliness of certain people. James addresses this in the movie as he takes Helen \"out\" for an ice cream.\n\"Helen, listen. Sometimes we are thrown into people's lives when they just need to be cheered up and reassured and it turns out that it's your job. I don't know why. In your case, it's my job. But, I'll be honest, the fact that I find you moderately attractive just makes the job easier on my part.\"\nHe then asserts that his intentions are completely honorable. And he then asks her if she prefers diamonds or sapphires.\nFunny how we weave in and out of each other's lives.\nDestiny is an odd concept. It involves an orchestrated and predetermined course of events over which we have no control. It is fate, and fate is, by definition, unavoidable.\nPersonally, I think that's horseshit. The rugged individualist in me wants to believe that I choose my own way. And I do, in most circumstances. But there was once a time in my life when I almost married a woman who couldn't have been a worse choice for me. As captain of my own ship, I would have married her, but for the fact that not one but two pastors refused to marry us. At that time, a friend asked me, \"Are you getting the drift, yet?\" We didn't marry, and in hindsight, my children and I are deeply grateful for dodging that bullet. I don't think they would have ever forgiven me for the damage that she would have done to them by an ill choice that I made for my own selfish desire.\nWas that divine intervention? I'm not smart enough to know God or to think that I could ever hope to understand God. I think it's pretty arrogant to think that a person could fathom God. I have a hard enough time understanding women, much greater the creator of the heavens and the earth.\n\"Want\" is a dangerous thing. Or at least it's powerful stuff. It drives us to achieve the impossible. It propels us forward. Those are both good things, but there comes a time when \"want\" is simply out of place.\nThat's why I think an agenda is often limiting. It blinds us to the potential of the moment because we stare myopically at the object of our desire. We miss the true opportunity, and seldom realize it, and focus instead on what we think is best for us.\nWater is the best substance I know. Water has no desire. It doesn't have to burrow through an impassable barrier in a certain way; it slowly finds a way around it. It's patient and waits for opportunity. Amazing stuff, water.\nDestiny, as best I can reconcile it, is our patient and aware recognition of the right path and then walking upon that right path. I don't know if it's predetermined, but I do think it makes itself known if we're paying attention. A person is never \"destiny;\" though walking with a person for a time might be destiny, if you will.\nThe older I get, the more cautious I become of what I want. \"Want\" can get me into trouble, whereas if I actually wait for the pieces of the puzzle to fall into place, life is easier. Like water.\nFor an impatient soul like me, that's tough.\nI love life. Every day is full of surprises and each day I learn so much. It's wonderful and yummy... life makes me want more of it.\nI was able to listen to the dreams of two people today. One is an entrepreneur who is successful in his business. It's been a long struggle to get to where he is, but he has 12 employees and he's going through some changes in his business. He's about to re-consider his branding, and his web site, and he's both eager for the possibilities and a bit unsure. He wants to choose the right direction.\nWe had lunch and though he was weary from the day's business, it's so obvious that he does what he loves. His story is a good one, and he's a good guy. We talked about his marketing and how he could maneuver his marketing to his strengths. I left the conversation excited for him, and I offered to help him in any way that I could.\nThe second conversation came later with a co-worker over dinner. She's a woman of tremendous gifts who's going through a bit of a re-tooling in her corporate life. She's got a good husband and lots of people around her who believe in her, but incredibly, few of them really know what she wants to truly do. As we talked, she told me what her passion is. I won't tell you, but I will say that it's a very selfless and heartwarming vision. Those who've heard of this in the past have told her that it would never become a living for her. But I heard it, and knowing her abilities and knowing what's possible, I thought that with her energy for this, she could bring it together. I told her that I would be glad to help her as I could in achieving her dream. And upon saying this, she just gushed on for a while about how deeply she wants this during her lifetime. It was beautiful.\nTapping into a person's deepest passions makes listening so completely worthwhile. Helping them see how it could come together and take them further toward their goal is satisfying beyond description.\nNow, a funny. I went to work today, and I noticed that I forgot to iron my shirt. I usually don't anyway, but today I looked like I was shot with the wrinkle gun. It just never occurred to me to give it the iron - I didn't notice. I live in my head quite often, thinking of what might be and how to achieve it. I forget that I often look like Columbo.\nSo as I sat across the table, my co-worker says, \"My friend, can I tell you something? I'm a good judge of people, and I think you have quite a future in front of you. You'll be very successful. I know this, and I'm damn good in a casino. Just do me one favor. Press the shirt now and then.\"\nYeah... I get that often. I need to remember to do that. I'd hate to have my shirt put a damper on my own dreams.\nWent on a long bike ride with Tamara and Tom today and it's been a while since I biked that far. I about coughed my lungs up afterward on the drive home. It was good for me :)\nHaven't painted in this, my long weekend, yet. I did, however, create some pages on my ArtByBrett site for me to record expenses. My own version of an accounting package. I'm excited about this because it's on the web, so it's accessible to me from anywhere. And this will allow me to see exactly how much I'm spending in this endeavor, by category. That's always a good thing.\nTomorrow, I turn the boys over to Jackie and so I'll have Sunday and Monday to myself. Through this evening, I'll be working up designs for the contemporary/worded cards and then turn out a few in the next two days. Kinda fun...\nI started watching \"Shopgirl\" last night, but stopped in the middle of it. I need to finish, but there's this at the end...\nAs Ray Porter watches Mirabelle walk away, he feels a loss. How is it possible, he thinks, to miss a woman whom he kept at a distance, so that when she was gone, he would not miss her. Only then does he realize how wanting part of her - and not all of her - had hurt them both. And that he cannot justify his actions except that, well, it was life.\nLife is not managed; life is best lived - and fully at that. Ray tried to manage the relationship on his own terms instead of embracing it, and lost what he truly most wanted.\nETC: Watched the rest of the movie, and it went a couple of places I didn't expect it to go. I also watched the \"Making of...\" bonus feature. In it, Steve Martin, who wrote the script and the novella from which the movie is made, talks of the individual perspectives people have in relationships and the \"frivolity\" that sometimes occurs in casual but intimate relationships. Best if that frivolity is understood by both people, but I think that's hard to do.\nA woman once asked me, if I could go anywhere in the world, where I would like to go. For her, it was Cancun. She lived for Cancun, and could go there often, as she owned a travel agency. At the time we were seeing each other, and she couldn't have been more unprepared for my answer.\n\"The most poverty-stricken place on the planet. India... Africa. Wherever that might be. A lot of people respect the sheer effort of the successful, and that's justified, but how much more courageous is it to wake up in the morning and know that life is going to suck and be hard and yet they face the day anyway and just live. To see that bravery in person would be astounding.\"\nIf I remember correctly, she recoiled in horror. It was a weenie-shrinker for her. I'd say that it was the turning point in the relationship. What was weird though was that she never broke it off with me. She wanted casual and intimate at the same time. When I did break it off, she was quite ugly about it. She wanted me in part, but not fully. And there've been times when I've wanted someone in part, but not fully. It's unfair when that happens.\nI don't think there can be a frivolity with the heart.\nMy standing floor rack holds 24, and I now have 18 painted. You can see all of the cards here:\nhttp://www.artbybrett.com/\n6 more, and the rack is full.\nI'm still missing a birthday card, and I need to do an \"Iowa\" card or two. I'm working on the friendship card at the moment. I want to do a couple of contemporary designs. I could wrap up all 6 by the end of the month, which would put me on track to have 60 by the end of the year (5 cards a month).\nPresidential Groove\nI have a program on my computer that allows me to make animated content. This is my first attempt.\nBut it also allows me to make Flash content, so in theory, I could make cartoons of sorts, with sound and such.\nI think that might be useful during election years.\nAustin's Art Work\nMy son, Austin, gave me this today. He made it.\nI love that boy :)\nI watched the film, United 93, today.\nI think everyone should watch it. Except for the 2-year-old who sat six seats down from me in the theater. What kind of horrific mother brings her toddler to such a violent and emotional movie?\nAbout 20 minutes into the movie, I found my heart racing. Throughout the film, I learned a few things that I didn't otherwise know about what happened that day. Ultimately, this was a film about three things:\nZealotry. Islamic religious zealots who gave no care to the lives of others, but instead thought only of their cause. There is a difference between zealous and zest. The difference is selfishness, and the zealot is focused obsessively on one thing, regardless of who or what stands in the way and regardless of what others might want for themselves. There is no other way but the zealot's, even at the expense of the lives of others.\nBuffoonery. The government screwed up in so many ways. It occurred to me that we are unfathomably lucky that we did not get hit by a larger entity of more than 20 terrorists that day. Had this been a full-out attack by, say, China, we'd all be speaking Chinese today. Government is never an answer to any problem. Its myriad levels of bureaucracy and bloated inefficiency can never be trusted for timely decisions. This film shows that truth in all its glory, which reinforces my firm belief: good government is small government.\nIndividualism. The heroes of the film are the individuals who made hard decisions without trying to commit it to a vote. They didn't wait for authority or approval - they just did what made sense. And most notably, the passengers. With a dire situation and sketchy details by phone, they ran rings around the government's Pony-Express-speed answer, and saved Washington another hit with their sacrifice. The individual should never be fettered by anyone to move ahead and make a decision and act upon it.\nA truly well-made movie that was hard to watch, but critical to see.\nAs I came out of the theater and into the lobby again, the first thing I saw was a poster for Oliver Stone's \"World Trade Center.\" I shuddered. He'd better not mess with something so sacred as that day. Thankfully, \"United 93\" honored it by just telling the story, and used several of the very people involved in key roles that day in the movie itself. I can see why the families of the passengers agreed to the film. I'll buy the DVD when it comes out. I'll show it to my grandkids someday.\nBooks can be an embarrassment. The ones we show on our shelves can reveal a great deal of who we are and subject us to the preconceived notions of others. I have several versions of the bible, for example. The New English, the Revised Standard, the New International, the King James and the New King James, the Moffatt translation, and so on and so forth. Fancy me a Christian? Why, you just might, if you saw my books.\nBut the truth is that I'm not. At least not any more. Onions have layers, Shrek tells us. Onions also make you cry as you peel them apart, and us people, in getting to know us, can cause the same reaction. It's conflicting and difficult to learn someone as you dive more deeply into them. We learn about others by their actions and their words and the books they have and by those who know them.\nOn the advice of a friend, I stayed up late to watch Bridget Jones' Diary. I'm in a movie mode lately... a sign of lots of thinking going on... and I'm buying books. These are both signs that I'm craving input as I'm trying to figure something out.\nBridget felt it was time to avoid being a spinster, and so she was off man-shopping. She found such a guy, but he was an absolute cad, though he was smooth and great in bed. Later, she found the right guy - the one who wanted her for exactly who she was. He knew her imperfections and spoke honestly to them - he saw them outright - but their presence had no impact on him. He wanted her just as she was. Although she didn't see that he was the right one until it was almost too late.\nThe reading material that we have lying about can cause such trouble. It certainly did for Bridget and she ran half-naked through the streets because of it. I have a copy of Dr. Laura's book, The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands. That book has caused me no less than eight arguments with women. How condescending the title, I hear from most of them. Or I hear that Laura is hideous. How can you stand her, they ask. But I like her. She's honest, which is the quality I admire most in people.\nI also like the bible, despite its imperfections. Just as I don't agree with Laura on everything that she says, I also don't agree with the bible about everything that it says. But I feel that you would be hard-pressed to find a deeper book. A lot of wisdom in there. The same is true about Laura.\nA great attractiveness about Bridget, I think, was that she didn't try much to hide her flaws. She knew that they would be exposed. She even kind of embraced them. Because perfection doesn't exist. I sometimes say things that I don't mean, or I say it wrong for the audience to whom I intended it. Or I say it at the wrong moment. No matter how much I try - and I do try very hard - my communication is probably fumbled in delivery as often as it succeeds. And I'll also hear things incorrectly from others for the same reasons and make assumptions about what they're saying.\nStephen Covey's \"Seek to understand before you seek to be understood\" is most appropriate here. Questions are a salvation. You know, it's hard to remember to ask the right questions in the midst of a conversation. Things happen so fast. I heard Laura address this one night on the air with a couple. As they got into bed, the husband made a comment. The wife got out of bed. He assumed that she was pissed, and so he reacted to that, when in fact, she got out of bed to ensure that their child was truly asleep so that they could talk. But instead, they got into a very long fight over a silly miscommunication. Had the husband asked why she got out of bed, the fight could have been averted. Had the wife commented what she was doing as she got up instead of saying nothing, the fight could have been averted.\nImperfection is beautiful when it's embraced. It makes us humble. It renders us soft in a difficult discussion and easy in a complicated relationship. Acknowledged imperfection allows us to laugh at ourselves, as Bridget often did. Being unafraid to see imperfection also makes forgiveness possible. It's indispensable, really. It encourages us to accept one another - just as we are.\nMoney Come Running\nThose who know me and talk with me regularly know that I've been following prosper.com and zopa.com closely. These two companies have started p2p (person-to-person) lending web sites for unsecured loans.\nI read this yesterday:\nMost intriguing are both companies' plans to introduce APIs [application programming interfaces] so programmers can integrate social finance with social networking. Members of Yahoo Groups and MySpace would be able to participate in peer-to-peer finance through groups already established at other services. Groups could even be set up to view financial data and perform administrative functions from sites other than Prosper or Zopa.\nI expect that Prosper and Zopa will offer finder's fees for either lenders or borrowers who come together to do business through third-party blogs. Today, about the only way that people can make money blogging is by placing advertising on their blogs - most popularly, Google's AdSense. What's coming are companies willing to dillute their brand by spreading the company skunk works across tens and hundreds of thousands of blogs through APIs that allow the average blogger to make money. To some degree, this happens today, but I expect p2p lending to be a better model of income for bloggers.\nQuestion of the day: what happens when this moves beyond lending?\nToss 'Em Overboard\nVia Drudge and ABC, I read that Dennis Hastert is subject to a criminal probe.\nThis is after he suggests that those in Congress shouldn't be subject to FBI raids and shows his support for House member Jefferson from Louisiana, who was taped accepting a bribe. Of course Hastert's protecting the backside of Jefferson - Hastert might be on the take as well.\nCorruption is all over the place in Washington, both in Republican and Democratic circles. Scout 'em all out. Jail the guilty.\nETC: The DOJ denies that Hastert is under investigation. But for being an idiot and suggesting that Congress-folk shouldn't be searched like the rest of us are when there is ample evidence that we've taken bribes, he should still be tossed overboard.\nI'm so tired of politicians. Small government is good government.\nNick's Painting\nNick's last homework assignment for art was an acrylic painting - his first.\nEvery once in a while, I notice some synchronicity in my life, and though I don't attach great meaning to it, I do see it as an opportunity to mull over the meme.\nAnger is the current meme.\nI attended a class entitled, \"Children in the Middle,\" last night. It's a mandatory class put on for all those in Iowa going through a divorce. Good class, and they go over many aspects of how to carry on with your ex-spouse without eroding the kids and their need for each parent's love. They talked of communication and feelings and the growth stages of children. I thought of my interpersonal relationships class in college and my first marriage and my second and my time learning of Piaget in child development and of my own kids... all good.\nThere was a point though in the conversation where we talked of the stages of grief. Of course, anger is one of those. Anger has a negative connotation, but anger also provides us with energy, says our instructor. \"Don't try to bury your anger. It not only hurts you from the inside, but it also keeps you from tapping a source of energy that might just help you get on with your life and start off in new directions.\"\nThat's pretty sage. So I grooved on that for part of the evening.\nI come in this morning and browsed Tom Peters' latest slideshow on innovation. 23 slides in, I read this:\n\"Innovation's 'Secrets' Revealed: Get mad. Do something about it. Now.\"\nI've never tied anger to innovation, but in the same perspective of anger spurring someone in new directions, anger spurs you to action - it is energy. Which is either wasted or used well.\nA businessowner always has to ask: does what I offer alleviate the consumer's pain so much that they're willing to part with their hard-earned money to obtain it? In other words, am I mad enough about a consumer's pain that I'm willing to do anything to resolve it?\nTom quotes a new book in his slides that I've not seen before. Paul Arden's \"Whatever You Think, Think the Opposite.\"\n\"ARE YOU BEING REASONABLE? Most people are reasonable; that's why they only do reasonably well.\"\n\"TRAPPED. It's not because you are making the wrong decisions. It's because you are making the right ones. We try to make sensible decisions based on the facts in front of us. The problem with making sensible decisions is that so is everybody else.\"\n\"Making the safe decision is dull, predictable and leads nowhere new. The unsafe decision causes you to think and respond in a way you hadn't thought of. And that thought will lead to other thoughts which will help you achieve what you want. Start taking bad decisions and it will take you to a place where others only dream of being.\"\n\"The best piece of advice ever given was by the art director of Harper's Bazaar, Alexey Brodovitch, to the young Richard Avedon, destined to become one of the world's great photographers. The advice was simple: 'ASTONISH ME.' Bear these words in mind, and whatever you do will be creative.\"\nAnd then he quotes an anonymous source:\n\"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body - but rather a skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow, what a ride!'\"\nChaos is a good thing. It's change. It's angry and roiled. It's unpredictable.\n\"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed - and produced Michelangelo, da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce - the cuckoo clock.\"\n- Source: Orson Welles, as Harry Lime, in The Third Man\nQuiet and peaceful doesn't resolve a damn thing.\nShake shit up. Get pissed off. Innovate. Change the world.\nI think my little calculator at the top left of my web site gives you the wrong number. As opposed to showing you how many days you've been alive, it should show you how many days you have left. And if that doesn't spur you to action to make the most of each day, then you might as well end it all now.\nSpunknabulous\n\"Spunknabulous\" is a word that I conjured up a few months back... I think it's best summed up as everything in which I believe and have any passion for.\nI'll be working on this for the next couple of years in the background...\nThankfully, The Last Stand\nOnly a quick post - just got back from seeing X-Men: The Last Stand. Key points:\nBrett Ratner's direction was ponderous.\nJohn Powell's music for the movie was unbelievably over-the-top and simply bad.\nThe special effects and the acting were good, as expected.\nAs a result, I look forward to Bryan Singer's Superman movie that comes out this summer. He knows what he's doing.",

The song appears in the documentary film 'Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me,' for which cameras followed the legendary singer on his final tour as his disease progressed.\nThe video for the song provides a look inside Campbell's final recording session, but he never got the opportunity to perform the song live. So Shannon Campbell set up in the attic of Campbell's home in Nashville and performed the song as a tribute to his dad, who now resides in a care facility.\nHis touching rendition demonstrates that the young musician -- who performed onstage with his father on tour -- inherited Campbell's musical ability. Accompanied by a simple violin and light percussion, he delivers the haunting tune in an acoustic guitar and vocal arrangement that is fittingly true to the original recording.\nLearn Country Stars' Real Names\nSource: Glen Campbell\u2019s Son Pays Tribute to His Father in Family\u2019s Attic [Watch]",

The band swelled along with her voice in the verses before bursting into an upbeat, powerful chorus, and if their cheers are any indication, the audience loved every second.\nAs with the rest of the covers at each show thus far, the song was fan-requested, and Clarkson says she was so excited to perform this one. \u201cWe haven\u2019t had, I don\u2019t think, a country one yet,\u201d she comments to the band and audience. \"I love it, too, because she\u2019s bluesy country, which is my favorite.\u201d\nClarkson has been on the Piece by Piece tour around the country, which continues through the end of October. She\u2019s been leaving behind unforgettable moments in every city, it seems, charming audiences not just with unique covers but down-to-earth fan interactions, including stopping singing her hit \u201cBreakaway\" entirely simply to hold a fan\u2019s adorable baby. Her latest single \u201cInvincible\u201d is gaining momentum in radio and climbing the charts after the success of \u201cHeartbeat Song.\"\nKelly Clarkson and Other Stars' Yearbook Pics\nNext: Kelly Clarkson's Incredible Miley Cover\nSource: Kelly Clarkson Nails Wynonna Judd\u2019s \u2018No One Else on Earth\u2019 [Watch]",

        "title": "Interview with Ben Coccio, Director/Writer of \"Zero Day\"",
        "raw_content": "Interview with Ben Coccio, Director/Writer of \"Zero Day\"\nAccording to his production company's website (Professor Bright Films-- http://www.professorbright.com), Ben Coccio has been making short films since he was twelve years old. He has directed several short films with Dave Shuff at Professor Bright Films, including commercials and shorts for MTV and IBN, and the cult classic 5:45 AM, which has aired on the Independent Film Channel (IFC). This September, I was lucky to see one of the first screenings of his brilliant first feature film, Zero Day,, at the Boston Film Festival. Zero Day is a film about two high school students who plan a school shooting, and is filmed in an experimental, \"Blair Witch\"-esque way, as if the film were the video diary of the two main characters. Since the Boston Film Festival, the film has gone on to win awards from many film festivals across the country, including \"Best Feature\" awards at the New Haven and Empire State film festivals. Recently, I had the privilege of being able to talk with him about his remarkable debut feature.\nEvan Spigelman: Describe \"Zero Day\" for someone who has never seen it.\nBen Coccio: I guess I would describe it, in all honesty, as a movie about a school shooting. I would also say, if you're going to put it in a genre or something like that, I think it would be a thriller or maybe a suspenseful movie, but it's also... this may sound kind of perverse, but it's also kind of a buddy film. I think half the reason people who like the movie, who enjoy watching it (if you want to use the word \"enjoy\"), is because their relationship as friends is compelling, and I think, realistic. I think there are times when it's just enjoyable to watch them together.\nES: What inspired you to make a film about a school shooting?\nBC: I think Columbine is clearly the factual inspiration. It's also a metaphysical inspiration too, but this isn't a movie about Columbine. There are obviously a lot of similarities, but Columbine was Columbine, and this is a movie (laughs). I just remember thinking that this was the ultimate event for describing a lot of things that people may feel in high school. I don't know if that makes any sense, but the idea that it seems like what happened to me was (and I'm not exactly proud of this thought), but I was surprised it hadn't happened sooner. That made me think, \"why did I think that?\"; it was just a fascinating event. Being clinical about it, the fact that it was also a terrible event, but it was also fascinating; the thought of these two people committing to doing something like this and then actually following through on it. I found it rather compelling dramatically and I was trying to think I mean, I don't have any connections, I don't have anyone in the industry who's going to help me get a lot of attention, but if I'm going to try and make a feature and get it out on the festival circuit, I should probably gamble on something that at the very least can get attention to begin with. You know, you can either have a big star in your movie or make the subject matter the star to some degree, depending on when you do it, so all those things sort of culminated in deciding to do this.\nES: How did you start to develop your idea into what we see onscreen?\nBC: That's a good question. I did a lot of research. The funny thing is, everyone does some research when doing a work of fiction based on something that they think is in some way realistic, but at the same time I felt like I shouldn't do research because I wanted it to be my own thing. I think the main reason I did the research was to confirm what I thought about these characters and what I thought about this arc of their story, to see if real events kind of confirmed that to some degree. And of course, when doing research I got a lot of ideas I didn't have before, so that was the first step, and then while I was writing I was casting; I was trying to get types of actors and whatnot; then I just jumped into it.\nES: How were some of the more improvisational bits in the film handled?\nBC: The cool thing about that was, for instance: there's a scene towards the end of the movie where they break into Andre's Cousin's house and steal guns from it. Basically what we did was we set up everything in the house as we wanted it and I told them exactly what they had to do and what they should stress and what they should hit, and said \"Alright guys, do it,\" and just followed along as they did it. So there's a lot of scenes in the film where they would actually just do what they were supposed to do. It was unpredictable and fun, and we would get what we wanted but we would also get really excited and really nervous; you really felt like you were breaking into their house! There was a lot of stuff like that that was just unique in a moviemaking experience. We had a lot of control, but we also left a lot to chance, I think in a good way.\nES: How did you ever find a school that would let you film that last scene?\nBC: (Laughs) I never did. I basically asked all the schools that I got in touch with in Connecticut and nobody wanted to touch it. Every superintendent in every school basically explained to me that if they ever let anything like that be filmed in their school they'd be fired. So I went with a college, actually. The State University of New York, which is about an hour north of New York City. It's this very strange looking place that looks actually a lot like a high school and they didn't really care about the subject matter because it's a college, so that didn't faze them too much; they were more concerned about the technical aspects: you know, would there be any danger to their equipment, would anything get broken, would anybody get hurt, and that kind of stuff. I had insurance, so it just came down to that and convincing them that we were going to be professional and nothing bad would happen to their facility. No high school in their right mind would ever (laughs) unless it was like, Quentin Tarantino or Steven Spielberg or something, it would be very difficult to convince a high school to allow that to be filmed in it.\nES: Why did you decide to have Cal and Andre use their real names and have their real parents be actors in the film?\nBC: I wanted to use their real parents; I didn't necessarily think it would work out, and if it did work out I didn't think it would work so well, but I wanted to use as many non-actors as possible in all ways and in all scenes. As many as possible; just fill it with non-actors and make it seem as real as I possibly could. That was the thing that I was striving for all the time, to make it feel real to the viewer. And it's a challenge because when you go into a movie theater and you watch a movie, it's very hard to pull one over on an audience anymore, and I mean, I think I came close. You know, there are scenes when I cringe, but using their real names and their real families was just a device, just like having them actually brake into the house. It was a delight to get them into it and to get their family into it, and to get everybody around them into it. Nobody had to remember some fake name or anything like that, and it was actually very easy for them to be natural around each other because the only \"wall\" up was this camera, which was, for all intents and purposes, it looked like the kind of camera you'd have for home footage. So, I did everything I could to keep it real, and I think using non-actors and using the real families was sort of an essential part of it. It would've been OK if I wouldn't have been able to do that, but I really wanted to do it.\nES: Again, for someone who hasn't seen the film, why would Cal and Andre film all of this?\nBC: That's a great question. To me, I know this is a polarizing and hard to ignore subject matter, and whenever someone talks about the film (like critics or someone), the first thing they always talk about is the subject matter, and of course they're going to. Well unfortunately, I think sometimes this makes some people miss out on the fact that it's a movie! And I'm trying to do a lot of things with the structure of a movie, and calling to question and playing with scenes in movies that I think we all sort of take for granted. I think first of all that Andre and Cal use the camera as an audience. To them, the most important thing is to not let on to anyone that they're planning to do this awful thing, but they've got to have an outlet; they've got to tell somebody, they've got to brag, and the camera is someone to brag to. But the funny thing is, is how when they're directing the camera, Andre and Cal's characters will switch back and forth between conspiratory, where they're talking to the camera and you're along for the ride and \"We're letting you in on this secret,\" and adversarial, as if the people on the other side of the camera are the target. Like, there will be times when Andre will be teaching you how to put together a gun or a bomb or something and you'll be his friend, you'll be his confidant, you'll be someone who's going through a similar thing. Then there'll be times when he'll say, \"I'm going to come and get you; it will only take me 45 seconds to find you; we're going to leave you all behind.\" Then, he's talking to you as if you're his target. So I think the reason that Andre and Cal are doing this (as characters) is that it's a way to record and document what they're doing for posterity, and to brag to someone and let someone know what they're doing without letting anyone know what they're doing. I think the nice thing that works within the movie is that it creates this kind of tension where you as the audience end up being both along for the ride and a target of the eventual assault, and I like that tension.\nES: Do you think there's a leader between Cal and Andre?\nBC: I think that's one of those things that I purposely engineered to be unanswerable, and I think if anything I would love people to come out of the movie and go to a diner and have a debate about which one they think is the leader. Because I think that there's evidence to say that either one is in control, and theres evidence to say that they're equal. I think we definitely set up the character arc in such a way so that in the beginning Andre really appears to be the one in control; he's the one who seems to be setting the tone. But by the poetry reading scene (I don't know if you remember that scene where they go to this poetry reading, and at the end Cal is telling Andre to drive with his eyes closed), you start to realize that Cal has a lot of power in this relationship as well. I think you can definitely look at the character arcs, and they're intertwining along the way; they're going in and out and really intertwined in a nice way... I would never say to anyone, \"no, you're wrong\" if someone said \"oh, I think Andre's the leader\"; I wouldn't refuse it, but I think it's one of those things where I purposefully engineered it to be vague.\nOn to page 2---->",

        "title": "Dark Buzz: Maybe no mathematical double of the universe",
        "raw_content": "Peter Woit trashes a new book by physicist Lee Smolin, and quotes Smolin saying:\nThe most radical suggestion arising from this direction of thought is the insistence on the reality of the present moment and, beyond that, the principle that all that is real is so in the present moment. To the extent that this is a fruitful idea, physics can no longer be understood as the search for a precisely identical mathematical double of the universe. That dream must be seen now as a metaphysical fantasy that may have inspired generations of theorists but is now blocking the path to further progress. Mathematics will continue to be a handmaiden to science, but she can no longer be the Queen.\nI doubt that I will agree with Smolin's main claims, but I do agree that it is a mistake to believe that physics should be a precisely identical mathematical double of the universe. My FQXi essay explains why.\nAn Amazon review says:\nBut it was much worse than that when I realized that the author was leading up to a type of \"hidden variables\" interpretation of Quantum Mechanics (QM). If you don't know what that term means, don't worry about it, it is just physics jargon for theories that try to replace QM by deterministic approaches that avoid the probabilistic interpretation of it. Based on personal philosophy and even religion, countless people (many of them very prominent physicists themselves) objected to the standard probabilistic interpretation of QM in the last 90 years. Hundreds of alternative deterministic approaches were proposed to replace QM. These theories are termed \"hidden variable theories.\" The better ones actually reproduce most of the predictions of QM. But no hidden variable theory has ever produced identical results to QM for all test cases. When the differences arose in predictions, the experiments backed the predictions by QM irrefutably. As of today, there is not one single hidden variable theory that produces the same results as QM for all experiments. It may yet happen some day, but based on how hard some of the smartest people on Earth have tried and failed for 90 years (including most notably Albert Einstein) to make hidden variable theories work, the prospects are rather dim.\nAs if that was not bad enough, in the last few chapters the author rejects the concept of \"identical particles\" in QM.\nI haven't seen the book, but pursuit of hidden variable theories is severely misguided, as I have argued here, and criticized Smolin here.\nLubos Motl calls the book An incredible pile of unscientific gibberish. Motl also trashes Aaronson's book here and here, and if you just read those posts, you would get the impression that Motl has a very low opinion of Aaronson. See also the comments, which did not display in my preferred browsers. No, those posts are only mild criticisms compared to the venom for Smolin.\nAaronson is really a smart theoretical computer scientist with a warped view of physics. I am sure that his book is mostly correct, even if it is over-enthusiastic about some ideas. But Smolin subscribes to a philosophy that is antagonistic to modern science. Smolin once gave this definition of science:\nScience is not about what's true, or what might be true. Science is about what people with originally diverse viewpoints can be forced to believe by the weight of public evidence.",

        "raw_content": "A reader sends this BBC story:\nA senior scientist who said physics \"was invented and built by men\" has been suspended with immediate effect from working with the European nuclear research centre Cern.\nProf Alessandro Strumia, of Pisa University, made the comments during a presentation organised by the group.\nHe said, in comments first reported by the BBC's Pallab Ghosh, that physics was \"becoming sexist against men\".\nCern said on Monday it was suspending Prof Strumia pending an investigation.\nIt stated that his presentation was \"unacceptable\".\nLuMo compares this to persecuting Galileo here and here.\nNo woman would be fired for pushing the accomplishments of women or for whining about men. This man was fired for presenting some facts and opinions about men. So his firing proved his point -- physics is sexist against men.\nI thought that his punishment was potentially justifiable because he was injecting political opinions into a scientific context. But his talk was to a gender politics workshop where all the other opinions complained about male oppression. They will never get to the truth as long as contrary views are censored.\nThe Galileo analogy is a little silly. Galileo was allowed to publish his arguments about the Earth going around the Sun.

This is a historical fact (whether you like it or not)that really has no wiggle room for debate unless you are going to invoke an alternate universe where men an women inexplicably make identical career choices. There have been some female physicists of course...but the field is still in fact overwhelmingly male. This will only change when more women decide for themselves (not because someone tells them to) to take more of an interest in physics.",

        "raw_content": "Impact of the tax reform on the compensation of employees and senior managers\nby Tax Department \u00b7 2 December, 2014\nAs is stated in the preamble to the Law amending the Spanish Personal Income Tax (PIT) Law (35/2006 of November 28, 2006), the objective of the tax reform recently published in the Official State Gazette is: (i) to offer a generalised reduction of the tax charge borne by taxpayers, through measures which will lessen the taxes they are required to pay and increase their net disposable income, as is the case with the new tax rate applicable to the general component of net taxable income for 2015 and 2016; and (ii) to progress towards a situation of greater equity, by eliminating or restricting the application of certain tax incentives which reduced the taxable income, such as the exemption applicable to the recipients of dividends.\nThe tax reform includes measures which affect, among other questions, the taxation of severance pay for redundancy or dismissal, the reduction applicable to income generated over more than two years, the tax regime applicable to retirement savings schemes (life insurance, pension plans and the newly-defined concept of the long-term savings plan) and the tax benefits applicable to workers posted to Spanish territory, in addition to the taxation of capital gains generated by ownership interests in any kind of entity which arise upon a change of residence.\nIn relation to the reduction applicable to income generated over more than two years (\u201cmultiyear income\u201d) regulated in Article 18.2 of the PIT Law, which applies, among others, to income deriving from medium and long-term compensation schemes, the main changes introduced by the tax reform are:\nThe reduction percentage has gone from 40% to 30%.\nIncome generated over more than two years is required to be allocated to a single tax period, with the special apportionment rule having been eliminated, except in the case of severance payments for the termination of an employment relationship.\nThe condition that such income cannot be obtained periodically or on a recurrent basis has been done eliminated.\nThe reduction does not apply to income generated over more than two years where, in the five tax periods preceding that in which it becomes claimable, the taxpayer has obtained other income generated over more than two years to which the reduction has been applied.\nThe rule whereby the reduction between Euros 700,000 and 1.000.000 is lost in the case of severance payments or indemnities for dismissal or termination of an employment or mercantile relationship continues to apply.\nThe specific rule which applied to stock options has been eliminated, and these options will now be taxed in the same way as any other salary income classed as \u201cmultiyear\u201d, with a transitional regime being established for salary income deriving from the exercise of stock options granted prior to January 1, 2015.\nThese changes in the tax regime applicable to compensation schemes benefitting employees and senior manager mean that the design of medium and long-term compensation schemes implemented by companies will need to be reviewed.\nGarrigues Tax and Human Capital Services Departments\nTags: compensationemployeesemployment relationshipsincometax reformtaxation\nNext story How to prevent a trademark from lapsing through lack of use\nPrevious story The EU General Court annuls the first two decisions of the Commission",

I did read Scott's The Bride of Lammermoor, though. Does that count? At the end of the novel Edgar rides his horse into the bog and disappears into a pool of quicksand. I love that.\nThere was no quicksand at the opera, but there was the heather on the hill. Two operas set in Scotland in one week is pretty strange. The production for Ariodante did not hint at Scotland at all, though one of the characters was the king of Scotland.\nThere was a serious attempt to suggest a Scottish landscape with a lot of stubby little plants. Lucia lives her real life romance there and her insanity imagined romance there. There were tartans, the essential Scottish object, but no one wore kilts.\nGiuseppe Filianoti, the tenor Edgardo, would have looked great in a kilt. He fulfilled all the hunky requirements for the romantic lead. He sang with a distinctly Italian style and technique but couldn't quite keep it up. This role seemed a struggle for him. I can't imagine why he thinks he is ready to sing Don Carlo.\nGabriele Viviani, the Italian baritone who sang the evil brother, I liked a lot better.\nOnce again I believed in Natalie Dessay, in her youth, in her love, in her madness. It was a pleasure.\nAlmost every note of the soprano part is recorded on various sopranos' aria albums, but I'd never heard the tenor's stuff before.\nLabels: +70, Bel canto, Donizetti, Italian, Lucia, Natalie Dessay, Northern California, Opera Only, OperaUS, Review Performance, San Francisco Opera, SF Bay Area, United States\nMy absolute favorite \"Lucia\" on CD features Anna Moffo and Carlo Bergonzi. It's one of those RCA Italia studio recordings from the 1960s. Tons of people rave about Sutherland's Lucia, but I've always believed her voice was too heavy for the role -- especially after hearing Moffo's light-as-air rendition.\nI am so sorry for your opinion about my Edgardo. Please, don't write nothing about me and my future performances. Especially for Don Carlo. Thanks for your help.\nI won^tbe seeing the Don Carlo. I only write about what I hear. I think he is a great talent which needs greater consistency.",

        "raw_content": "Oakland institutions\nCarlos Avila Gonzalez\nThere's a nice article on SFGate about my barber. Rocky has not only been cutting hair longer than I've been alive, he's been cutting Raiders owner Al Davis' hair longer than I've been alive. He's a what-you-see-is-what-you-get, rough-around-the-edges kind of guy, and he's an institution in Montclair.\nOver on Piedmont Avenue, fresh on the balloon strings of some publicity from Pixar's Up!, Fentons is celebrating its 115th year. It's boggling to think of all the ice cream that has been served over the generations (at least 3 in my family.) I'm looking forward to my youngest nephew turning 6 so he's old enough to go on the Arctic Tour.\nAs the new kid on the block at only 40, the Oakland Museum is taking a break to spruce things up a bit. It will re-open in May 2010 after reconfiguring the History and Art Galleries, and upgrading the common areas. There will still be special events at various Oakland venues during the closure.\nPrior to the Oakland Museum of California opening in 1969, the Oakland Public Museum was at Camron-Stanford House on the shore of Lake Merritt. The first and last of the great Victorians that once stood near the lake, it was almost lost to decay after the museum moved out. A dedicated group saved it, and it was restored and opened as a museum in 1987.\nLabels: food, history, Lake Merritt, Montclair, Piedmont Avenue, Raiders\nIncidentally, we're Oakland Museum members, and when we got our renewal a couple of weeks ago, it noted that members will have reciprocal memberships to a bunch of other East Bay museums and attractions while the museum is closed for then next nine months---I can't remember everything on the list, but several spots we hadn't yet been to. So in spite of it seeming like an odd year to become a member, it might actually be a great year to join for first-time members---you get to use your membership all over the place *and* you get the first peek at the new museum when it opens next spring!\nWas it the same list as the NARM list (North American Reciprocal Program) on the site, which normally applies to members at the $125 (or higher) level? There's some great museums all around California and the country on those lists.\nNo, although we do belong at the membership level that gives us access to those (mostly b/c the deYoung, Asian Art, and a few other SF museums are included), and really enjoy that too. This list was in the letter about the closure, though, and was primarily Oakland & Berkeley museums and attractions. I'll keep hunting and see if I can find it---the info doesn't seem to be up on their website yet, but I remember the letter noted that they were still building the full list and would send an update when it was complete.\nQuick followup, as the museum finally sent out an email with the details---members get free admission or discounts at Chabot, the zoo, the Berkeley Art Museum, and MOCHA. (I thought there were more on the original list; ah well!) A new twist, though: members also get discounts at a number of Oakland restaurants (mostly in Montclair and Lakeshore) and at a couple of art galleries in town.\nCool -- thanks for the follow up.\nsigns: Foster Printing\nsigns: the other Acme Fire Extinguisher sign\nsign: This Buds For You\nsigns: Vale 1 Hour Cleaners\nsigns: Harrison Hotel\nhistory: Mt.

I did laundry, I rode the stationary bike, I finally worked on a task for the new mets board, I thought about sewing, and I did some sketches to decide what to sew next.\nYes, to my surprise, I felt almost like a \"normal\" person today. I could have done a lot more - the living room and my creating table both need tidying. I've been feeling like I need to create something but it's too messy over there and in the rest of the room to even think about starting a new project.\nIn case you were wondering, I was doing the sketches because I currently weigh... too much... and if I'm not careful, I could make something that is decidedly unflattering. I've done it before, after all :) So I drew a little croquis of myself and sketched different styles over it. It turns out - and I'm sure Ian could tell you this - that I can't wear things that don't have a clearly-defined waist. Making the waist look smaller makes the rest of me look comparatively smaller, as long as the design doesn't emphasize my hips or butt\nHopefully I'll get a design figured out tomorrow.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Response: 'Beautiful' Moments in Teaching 'Overshadow the Difficult Ones' | Main | Response: Students Share Their Best School Experiences and What We Can Learn From Them \u00bb\nAuthor Interview: 'Deep Learning: Engage the World, Change the World'\nBy Larry Ferlazzo on January 23, 2018 7:44 PM\nMichael Fullan, Joanne Quinn, and Joanne McEachen agreed to answer a few questions about their new book, Deep Learning: Engage The World, Change The World.\nMichael Fullan is Professor Emeritus at OISE/UT, and Policy Adviser to the Premier, and to the Minister of Education of Ontario.\nJoanne Quinn is Global Director of New Pedagogies for Deep Learning (NPDL) and leads an international consultancy focused on whole system change.\nJoanne McEachen is CEO of The Learner First and serves as Global New Measures Director for New Pedagogies for Deep Learning (NPDL).\nLF: This is probably not a fair question, but can you summarize what \"deep learning\" is and why you think it's important?\nMichael Fullan, Joanne Quinn & Joanne McEachen:\nDeep learning is quality learning that 'sticks' with you for the rest of your life; it increases student engagement through personalization and ownership; it connects students to the 'real world'; it resonates with spiritual values; it builds skills, knowledge, self-confidence, and self-efficacy; it builds new relationships with and between the learner, their teachers, families and communities; and it deepens the human desire to connect with others to do good. In terms of outcomes deep learning focuses on specific global competencies that we call the 6Cs: character, citizenship, collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking.\nIn terms of pedagogy we have built learning around four elements: learning partnerships, pedagogical practices, learning environments, and leveraging digital. The whole set is fueled by collaborative inquiry. We have tools\u2014ideas, rubrics, and progressions\u2014to support development and implementation.\nThe other key factor for us is that we go from practice to theory. Over the past three years - with over 1000 schools in clusters in seven countries - we have established a 'living laboratory' of plan, do, reflect, extract key examples and learn; then do some more as we learn from each other and share with the world.\nLF: Your books shared a number of specific examples of \"deep learning,\" but very few were from schools in the United States. Is that because you feel that most U.S. schools are not implementing that kind of instruction and that other countries are \"ahead\" of us, or because you wanted to be intentional about sharing a global focus? If it's the former, why do you think that's the case? If it's the latter, what are some examples you can talk about in this country?\nYou are correct that we wanted to be intentional about our global focus in the book and thus used examples from each of the seven countries. The majority of examples we used in the book were drawn from schools that had joined in 2014 and were in their second or third year of engagement. The U.S. clusters from Washington state, California, Michigan and Connecticut began their work with us in August of 2016 and had only been engaged a few months when the book was written. We are now able to highlight strong progress emerging in Birmingham District as part of Oakland Schools in Michigan, NWESD189 and Puget Sound ESD from Washington state. That said it is the case that the uptake for deep learning in other countries like Canada, Australia, Finland, and the like is greater than in the U.S.. which is hung up on the basics in literacy, numeracy, and high school graduation. We agree that the latter are essential but think that they are best pursued through deep learning. Maybe it is just a lag, and that once it gets started that it will take off - what we call 'go slow to go fast.'\nLF: You talk about how deep learning could \"engage the disconnected\" and \"be a force for reversing the damaging effects of concentrated, intergenerational poverty and racism.\" Can you elaborate on how that would work?\nWe are blunt in the book: \"There is no reason for the majority of students to take conventional schooling seriously.\" This also applies to students who are doing okay on tests. To put it rhetorically, 'Is it possible for a student to do well on tests all the way through school including graduation and still not be good at life?' Deep learning with its focus on the 6Cs produces students who are 'good at life.' This applies to all students, but what we started to notice was that students who are most disconnected from regular schooling are the ones who respond best to the new way. They do this because deep learning is 'hands on,' applied to real life, inquiry based, relevant to practical immersion and so on. This development is especially noteworthy because we did not anticipate such dramatic impact\u2014it emerged naturally from the work.\nDisconnected students find schooling less relevant, but also they do not have a sense of 'belonging'. Moreover their lives might be in disarray: safety, shelter, food, health may all be problematic. Deep learning cannot do everything, but it can encompass this wider array of issues in the context of learning and development. Because deep learning is hands on and immediately relevant to personal lives it has a chance of developing a strong sense of efficacy, confidence, and competence. If deep learning can help disconnected students come out of the rut they find themselves in they can actually 'take off' more than other students. Beyond their own situation such students come to see their own worth and their ability to contribute to the world. Peers and teachers notice that they contribute and find their place. We have many examples in the book of students who encountered such transformation. The bigger point is that all students gain. In a real sense we think that deep learning has a chance to help reduce inequity in education, which as we know is an ever-increasing trend with dangerous consequences for society as well as for individuals.\nFinally, it is important to note that our work focused on the public education system. There are few things as crucial and as potentially uplifting as transforming the current system.\nLF: If I wanted to begin to implement \"deep learning\" in my classroom tomorrow, what are some steps you would suggest I take?\nEvery teacher finds their own entry point and that is the strength of this approach. Many teachers would begin by giving students greater voice and choice and ways in which you can increase student choice and voice. Once we give students more choice and voice it naturally leads to greater communication and collaboration between and among students and teachers. Next, teachers tend think about the learning environment and how to be more intentional in learning designs that foster deep learning (the development of the global competencies). The explicitness of the tools supports teacher in each step and builds clarity and precision.\nFrom a change process perspective our biggest message is that our only chance is to pursue deep learning through collaborative networks that work together, learn from each other, consolidate what is being learned, spread the word and do more. We have seen that our deep learning has the characteristics of a social movement. It is built on positive contagion. Sorry for the slick language, but we are talking about system change that occurs through a dynamic process of 'exploit upward, and liberate downward'. This means that the 'system' needs to frame the direction, and whatever they do, the other layers have to be proactive upward. The very good news is that teachers and students as individuals and groups become liberated around deep learning as forces for system change. This is potentially revolutionary because teachers and students en masse are powerful change agents. We have not yet found student who is too young to be a change agent.\nLF: What would you say to educators who might hear about \"deep learning\" and, with a sigh, wonder if this is just another education fad that will fade away in time to be replaced by another one?\nDeep learning is a fad in the same way that climate change is a fad! Some people are slow to realize how essential it is, and how necessary it will be to engage in the phenomenon. We are hoping our book, and the action on the ground, will generate some irresistible shift. The 6C competencies have been around for many years and valued, but have never been actioned in a clear, consistent and accessible way. We are finding that character, citizenship, and creativity are catalytic Cs in that they cause all 6 to flourish. In any case we are finding that these competencies are hidden in curricula across the world, and thus can be made explicit as a set. The early results show big shifts in student engagement and improved learning as students contribute to the local and global context to solve problems that are important to them and others. Furthermore we know that employers, parents and the broader community value these competencies. So these are lifelong skills and deep learning has put the spotlight on how to foster them. Under supportive conditions deep learning can take off rapidly and result in substantial uptake and learning.\nStill, we are the first ones to say that the transformation we are engaged in is precarious. Many forces favor the status quo, not to mention inertia itself. We don't think the current system can be maintained. It could implode in favor of individualistic, and random networked interaction. We are doing our part to foster innovation and focus in a way that will make public education and associated learning exciting and up to the massive challenge of functioning in a world more complex than we have ever experienced. The world will only grow in complexity, and as we say, we can only hope that deep learners will inherit the world.\nLF: Is there anything I haven't asked that you'd like to share?\nPerhaps one thing that we should make more explicit. Technology is wildly unpredictable. We cannot even speculate what might happen. Our own view is that built-in deep learning is the only way to cope and take advantage of the future unknown. Our well-being and humanity as a species is dynamically at stake. We still like Paulo Freire's stance, which we quote and use in the book: \"The role of education is to act upon and transform the world [in order to] move towards ever new possibilities of a fuller and richer life individually and collectively\". That to us is the promise of deep learning!\nLF: Thanks!",

        "title": "Human development accounting | Let's Talk Development",
        "raw_content": "Human development accounting\nSubmitted by Youssouf Kiendrebeogo\tOn Thu, 06/22/2017\nThe rate of change in human development outcomes varies considerably across countries over long periods of time, as reflected in the two histograms below (Figure 1). For 78 countries in the period 1980-2014, the percentage decline in child mortality was 3.39% on average, with a standard deviation of 1.36%, a smallest rate of 0.89% (Central African Republic) and a highest rate of 8.07% (Maldives). The average percentage increase in school enrollment was 3.35%, with a standard deviation 3.54%, a minimum of 0.37% (Georgia) and a maximum of 19.68% (Maldives). Similar patterns of cross-country variation are found when using alternative proxies for health and education outcomes.\nSuch variations in rates of change in child mortality and school enrollment reflect important cross-country differences in human development achievements. Understanding the sources of these variations is a central issue for economic policy in that it can help us draw lessons from the best-performing countries for lagging countries. Even though exogenous forces such as technological change may play a role, most of these variations are tied to development policies.\nIn a recent paper, we identify five main explaining factors using a wide variety of empirical specifications: public spending on human capital; economic growth; nutrition; population density and conditional convergence. Holding constant the starting levels of child mortality and school enrollment, countries with higher levels of public spending on health or education, faster growth rates of GDP per capita, and lower levels of undernourishment experienced faster reductions in child mortality and faster increases in school enrollment. Consistent with the neoclassical growth framework, there is a tendency for countries to have faster improvements in health/education outcomes when they start with worse outcomes, relative to their \u201csteady-state\u201d position. The rates of convergence are 1.53% per year and 4.14% per year, respectively, for child mortality and school enrollment.\nWe then conduct a \u201chuman development accounting\u201d in the spirit of the \u201cgrowth accounting\u201d literature. While the paper focuses on oil-rich countries, this exercise considers a broader perspective by focusing on the highest and lowest deciles of rates of change in human development outcomes. The idea is to look at the extent to which each explanatory factor contributed to the fitted rates of decline in child mortality and of increase in school enrollment (as deviations from sample means). Much of the variation in the actual rates of change in human development outcomes is captured by the fitted values. The correlations between actual and fitted rates of change are 0.54 and 0.80, respectively for child mortality and school enrollment. For child mortality, on average, the difference in the fitted rates of decline between the highest and lowest deciles is 2.74 percentage points per year. The corresponding difference in the fitted rate of increase in school enrollment is 10.20 percentage points per year. What are the main factors influencing the probability that a given country belongs to the top or bottom decile of the distribution of rates of change in human development outcomes?\nIn Table 1, the fitted rate of decline in child mortality is broken down into the contributions of each statistically significant regressor, for each country group. For the highest decile, the positive value of the fitted rate of decline in child mortality reflects the contributions from strong conditional convergence, high public spending, low undernourishment, faster growth and high population density. For the lowest decile, although the convergence effect is stronger, its positive contribution is cancelled out by the negative contributions of public spending, undernourishment, GDP per capita growth, and population density. With regard to school enrollment, for the bottom decile, the contribution of conditional convergence turns out to be negative, that is, these countries did not manage to catch up (Table 2). This country group experienced a positive contribution from high public spending, which was cancelled out by the negative contributions of conditional convergence, undernourishment and GDP per capita growth. For the top decile, the positive value of the fitted rate of increase in school enrollment is the result of the contributions from strong conditional convergence and faster GDP per capita growth.\nTo sum up, differences in undernourishment, public spending on human capital and the speed of convergence were the main sources of cross-country variations in the rate of decline in child mortality, as conditional convergence played an important for both country groups. With regards to school enrollment, conditional convergence and, to a lesser extent, GDP per capita growth, were the main driving forces of the probability that a country belongs to the highest/lowest decile. But in both cases, the extent of the contribution of each factor to human development achievements varied from country to country. Although the fitted values explain a substantial part of observed cross-country variations in human development achievements, the residual errors remain important in some cases. More research is therefore needed to further investigate the drivers of cross-country variations in human development achievements.",

I realize I\u2019m happy when I feel surrounded by so many small but beautiful things. When I laugh, I know I\u2019m happy. There\u2019s nothing better than being able to laugh and enjoy just about everything there is to enjoy\u2026it makes life so much easier when you can look at it this way, when you can detach yourself from the parts you don\u2019t like about who you are\u2026when you can look at the time and know you\u2019ve spent it well and you\u2019ve had your fun\u2026when you can think of tomorrow as a day to go back to what you absolutely love to do\u2026when you can smile even if it rained and nothing happened\u2026when I\u2019m happy, I love everything about me, myself, and I\u2026\nI don\u2019t know who I am anymore. I have lost my place once again. I can\u2019t quite figure out why or where I went wrong. The road is ahead of me and I am way behind, blocks away and every time I try to catch up I fall behind once again\u2026There are so many things I could have done by now but I didn\u2019t and I don\u2019t know what stopped me\u2026It\u2019s not good enough to have dreams I\u2019ve learned. It\u2019s not good enough to me\u2026I want more for myself\u2026 I want to break free from all the people I depend on. I depend on too many people. I am always waiting for someone to tell me what to do or where to go, I am always waiting for someone to call me back or leave a message on my phone\u2026 I want to do things my own way, I want to draw my own map of life, not someone else\u2019s\u2026I need to get out of here and start living for myself because I can\u2019t live like this, it\u2019s causing too much pain for me\u2026\nWhat was once satisfying for me is no longer satisfying, not even close\u2026There are feelings inside of me that I am tired of trying to explain\u2026\nI didn\u2019t have a single happy day this week\u2026I tried to find a way out\u2026but just couldn\u2019t\u2026\nMy land, My Iran: Why I Have to Vote\nIran was always a great country in my childhood eyes. I left Iran at the age of 11. It was not until I went back to Iran at 15 that I saw with my own eyes what Iran didn\u2019t have. There was no democracy. Walking on the streets of Tehran brought back so many memories, but I couldn\u2019t imagine myself walking those streets for the rest of my life. It was nothing compared to walking outside on a street in Virginia or anywhere else in the U.S. I felt guilty as I watched people because I knew I was free and they were not.\nAnother election has arrived for Iran and I am thinking\u2026are they really going to get what they deserve? Are they really going to get their freedom, their democracy? What can I do for them? The only thing I can do, as I am sitting here, on my comfortable bed, reading a magazine on Hollywood gossip, while Iranian women are protesting for equal rights, is to vote. As an Iranian I feel obliged to vote because I am Iranian too. I could have been living there, among them, seeing what they see, going through their problems. But now that I am here, it is my duty to vote so that hopefully they too could have what anyone, in any country or in any nation embraces\u2026freedom.\nIt tore me to pieces when I realized that I have a Farsi (my mother tongue) vocabulary of a 5th grader. It crushed my ego; I lost all hope of ever being able to write in Farsi as an adult would. I am so frustrated; I feel trapped between two incomplete languages. Sometimes I think it would have been easier if I only knew Farsi and lived in Iran and minded my own business. Except things didn\u2019t turn out that way, that would have been too easy. I mistakenly thought I would be an expert at both. I had laid bags of hope in my heart, all which are now torn open, slowly being washed away\u2026piece by piece\u2026There is a price to pay for being a bilingual. It is not impossible to strengthen both languages, it just requires time and patience. But I can\u2019t explain how heavy the weight of not knowing everything feels, it\u2019s like you want to have everything, see everything and learn, but you just can\u2019t keep up. Even in my own house I am sometimes an outsider because there are things I don\u2019t understand, not just in the language, but cultural and political facts about Iran. It tears me into pieces but there\u2019s not much I can do\u2026I just have to accept the fact or look at it another way\u2026\nAt The Heart of Washington D.C.\nMaybe you think the heart of D.C. is the monument in Washington Mall or you might think it is the Congress or the White House. But I think the heart of D.C. is not just one place, I think it covers all the busy streets that spell out life. It is the crowd of people who walk through Wisconsin Avenue and shop endlessly beneath the warm summer sun. It is the busy streets that are blocked by traffic and are filled with important people, people who live their lives right by the capital. The heart of D.C. beats by those who live around it and walk by it everyday. The people of D.C. are what make the heart beat, whether they\u2019re the homeless, who perform and make music, or the interns who attend jobs while studying at GWU, or the bus drivers who drive through the city everyday, life beats because of everyday people who live there.\nI\u2019ve walked through D.C. on many occasions. I love walking over Key Bridge and looking down below at the Potomac River, watching boats pass by and the water below my feet; icy when it\u2019s winter and fresh and warm when summer arrives. Although I may be a foreigner, I also grew up in a city. I did not live in a city where freedom rings; I lived in Tehran where people constantly demonstrate for freedom. But no matter what culture or what nation you come from, if you\u2019re a city lover like me, you probably know where the heart beats\u2026\nThe wind goes through my hair, it makes me feel beautiful and carefree, each blow of the wind goes through me, inside my veins, I feel the blood running; the wind is inside me, I feel powerful, young, fresh, free from the polluted air and all the nonessential elements\u2026It is a purity beyond no other\u2026A safety, a guard against reckless days and malicious thoughts, thoughts that keep you up all night and make you become someone you never dared of becoming\u2026it\u2019s a safety against danger and fear\u2026the wind carries so much, yet when it passes through you, you feel as if it were weightless\u2026\nI\u2019m on a journey, a journey to self-discovery, no, that would be a lie. I\u2019m on a journey to find a purpose in my life, to make one dream come true at least. Sometimes that purpose gets lost in my mind. When you\u2019re a kid, you think you can just take a scratch sheet of paper, write down the goals you want to reach by the age of your desire, and then you\u2019ll be set. It doesn\u2019t work that way. Some days will have no purpose at all. You could just be going through pages of a memory book for one whole afternoon.\nMaybe it\u2019s okay not to have a purpose\u2026just go through life blindly, see what direction the wind will take you.\nHappy at this moment\nI am standing on a road, a road that doesn\u2019t really divide in two, meaning that it makes it even harder for me to choose paths\u2026\nlife is going by pretty fast, the faster it goes, the scarier it becomes, the options, the choices, the decisions\u2026all exciting though, don\u2019t get me wrong.\ni am realizing now that i\u2019m just happy\u2026and that\u2019s what matters to me right now, not what\u2019s going to happen tomorrow, or whether i\u2019ll have to go to New York city\u2026just this moment\u2026i\u2019m happy to be where i am\nalthough i still fantasize and dream about things i want to do and see, life is just good sometimes even when it\u2019s really simple\nit\u2019s important to enjoy simple things too\u2026i don\u2019t remember where i heard this, probably in a movie or something, but anyway\u2026\nThe weather changes everyday, no day is the same. One day it\u2019s sunny, the next day rain is pouring. I think change is good, even though I love sunny days. But one thing remains the same here in Virginia, the quietness and the languid air\u2026everything is so simple and austere, there are no crowds, no busy roads, no busy sidewalks\u2026\ni would have liked a busy city-life because people make me happy\u2026\ni would have liked a city full of life and energy\u2026\nthat\u2019s my life\u2026that\u2019s the way i would like my life to be\u2026\nTrapped in High School\nHigh school seemed like a prison at first, well it still feels like that, but now I realize that i actually learned a lot in these three years that I spent countless hours (maximum of 6 hrs + after school activities on occasion)in classrooms, gym, locker rooms, cafeteria, etc\u2026 Now that it\u2019s almost over, it\u2019s actually a bit scary because you know that once you\u2019re out, you\u2019re out, as in more responsibilities, more people, just more of everything i guess. But high school is really a big stage of life that everyone needs to go through. It\u2019s where you meet \u201creal\u201d friends, maybe even have real relationships, it\u2019s where you learn to time yourself and see how much challenge you can take. Some friends you keep until forever, some you forget, and some you just let go of\u2026\nIt\u2019s a weird place, it\u2019s frightening at first, there\u2019s a lot of pressure, but for the most part, it\u2019s an experience that sort of prepares you for later\u2026",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Against All Enemies | | Haroun & the Sea of Stories \u00bb\nShadow Puppets - Orson Scott Card\nThis is the third in the Ender's Shadow series. By this point in the story, Peter Wiggins is the Hegemon but has little real power and Achilles has been exploiting contacts and created a situation where China is establishing an empire. In one major subplot, Peter attempts to use Achilles to his own advantage, despite all the warnings that everyone who's tried to do that in the past has failed miserably. There's also plenty of strategizing and maneuvering, mostly centered around China.\nFinally, there's a subplot about Bean, who finally gives in to having children with Petra despite the fear that they'll inherit his genetic condition. Along the way, various characters express some not-so-subtle opinions about sanctity of life, the universal desire for marriage and children, and so on. It's something there was a small hint of in Shadow of the Hegemon, but here it's a much larger portion of the plot. It does, however, feel a little out of place, and you're not entirely sure if the philosophy discussions sprung from the plot, or if the plot was created to promote the philosophy. It's not so much that I disagree with all the opinions, but they just didn't quite seem to fit.\nI was curious to continue following the stories of Bean, Petra, Peter, etc. but I still didn't enjoy this one as much as some of the earlier books in the Ender series. Like the last book, this one also involved too many people who were too smart, resulting in somewhat arbitrary decisions about who gets fooled. I'm the sort of person who really wants to finish out a series, but if you're not, this one isn't necessarily one of the best.",

        "raw_content": "In a few weeks I\u2019m off to Pittsburgh again to participate in SARP III.\nThe focus of SARP III is to study the stability of clinical and molecular phenotypes of severe Asthma. Basically they\u2019re looking for the bio signature of certain mast cells in the serum and plasma and whether they are maintained over the long term, which would help validate their hypothesis that persistent signature determines short and long term outcomes through interactions with lung and inflammatory cells. ( hope I\u2019m saying this correctly)\nAs a study subject my role is pretty much the same as it was when I did SARP II, ie submitting blood and sputum, allergy testing, CT scans, PFTs, Bronchoscopy, etc. For precautionary reasons I have to spend 2 nights in the hospital following the bronchoscopy plus an additional day near the hospital before I\u2019m allowed to fly home, making this SARP visit a full 6 days in length. There\u2019s also a steroid injection involved this time and a follow up visit 3 weeks later, which I\u2019ll do at the UCSF SARP site in San Francisco. After that, there are 2 annual follow up visits back in Pittsburgh.\nAt the suggestion of one of my readers (thank you Jonathan), I pre screened for the Sanofi Phase II clinical trials for the new drug Dupilumab, which has now expanded to include non-eosinphilic type asthmatics , but I came up short on the required FEV1 criteria of 40% or greater. I could have probably blown an acceptable FEV1 on a repeat test, but I learned that I can\u2019t be in two studies at the same time anyway. My commitment to SARP is 3 years, so that pretty much excludes me from doing any other clinical trials until after that period, unless I drop out of SARP early.\nIn addition to the SARP testing, I also have a clinic visit with Dr Wenzel, whom I haven\u2019t seen in person since the ATS convention in San Francisco last year. Among other things, the topic of lung transplant is likely to come up again.\nSo a very busy month on the science front. Which is OK, because rather than taking from the system, this time I\u2019m giving a little something back. I encourage others with this disease to do the same.

        "raw_content": "chronic bronchitis symptoms - Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Bronchitis - A Deadly Attack\n3. Female smokers are more likely to get COPD than men are. 4. If you are a victim of air pollution, second hand smoke, or have a history of infections of the respiratory system, you have an increased risk of getting COPD.\nTo start with, acute bronchitis symptoms can be really intense. However, these symptoms fade away within a few days time. In case, this type of bronchitis is cause by infection with viruses, it will go on itself. You don't require any medical treatment. However, in case bronchitis symptoms tend to persist and get intense, you must seek the advice of your health care practitioner.\nHere are some facts you should know about chronic bronchitis. 1. COPD claims some 122,000 deaths each year in the US, as claimed by a study done in 2003. It is one of the leading causes of death.\nThose that suffer from chronic symptoms of bronchitis often develop asthma because of it. This is caused by the long term inflammation of your air passageways. In any case, it is essential that you get help from your doctor in dealing with your condition. Those that are suffering from chronic bronchitis have a very serious illness to consider.\nBad news: This disease can be a real health problem and pain in the neck making it very difficulty to cope up with daily activities of life. Good news: This respiratory disease can be easily treated when detected on time.\nDuring your initial bouts of chronic bronchitis, your symptoms are the same as those that a person with acute bronchitis will face. There is a heavy discharge of mucus from your coughing and the cough itself is a tell tale sign of chronic bronchitis.\nSo, if you want to find out more about bronchitis symptom and especially about bronchitis treatment please follow this link. You will find one of the best bronchitis informational websites.\nWhen you have a bronchitis bout, your bronchial tubes become inflamed and swollen. Each time that this happens, the lining of those tubes becomes scarred. Over time, the more irritation that happens the more excessive mucus production will become. Your tubes lining will become thickened because of the scarring.\nIf you are experiencing wheezing and coughing, then it is likely you have acute bronchitis. You can tell by listening to your breathing, can you hear a wheezing sound every time you take a breath. Your bronchial tubes may be constricted which is causing the wheezing and coughing. Just make sure you take lots of fluids and rest, the disorder will usually clear up within a few days.\nRemember that you don't have to smoke yourself to be a victim of what smoke can do. Just being exposed to it over long periods of time puts you at risk.\n'Is There A Treatment For Chronic Bronchitis' this question is nagging you when there is uncertainty and doubt. For some individuals, bronchitis happens often. This is what is called chronic bronchitis. In these individuals, the bronchitis may not go away, but may lessen in its severity. When this happens, individuals need to be aware of it and seek the help that's needed as soon as possible.\nFor more information about bronchitis, please refer to my website http://www.bronchitisguide.com or you can get the detailed guide from http://www.beyantryatt.com/bronchitis\nc)\tStep three: The lungs would emit out some abnormal sounds. The doctor will be in a position to confirm this once he or she listens to the breathing of the patient carefully with the help of a stethoscope.\nWhen it comes to chronic bronchitis, the symptoms are of moderate intensity. However, these are persistent and possess what is known as recidivating character. When compared to acute bronchitis, this type is infectious and certainly requires expert and specific medical attention. The treatment should not be interrupted in any way until directed by the doctor.\n2. The largest risk factor in patients that get COPD is that of smoking. 80 to 90 percent of those that suffer from this condition will be smokers. 90 percent of them will die from it because they smoked.\nIf your doctor determines that you have asthma, or that your chronic condition is likely to develop asthma, then he or she may recommend additional treatment for your condition. Those that are diagnosised with asthma will need an inhaler and sometimes additional asthma medications.\n5. 19 percent of those that suffer from COPD will get it from their work environment. Those that suffer from chronic bronchitis start by having an inflammation of their bronchial tubes. These are your air passageways, remember and therefore are very important to be clear so that air can move easily in and out of them allowing you to breathe.\nIt is very important to pay attention to bronchitis symptoms. Left untreated, both chronic bronchitis and acute bronchitis (when caused by bacteria) can lead to serious complications. However, any form of self-medication is not advised. By taking random left-over medicines you can only cause yourself harm. If bronchitis symptoms ease up in a few days, it is a sign that the illness is caused by airborne irritants or by viruses, in which case no medical treatment is required. However, if you experience an aggravation of bronchitis symptoms, you should see a doctor right away.\nDon't stop the treatment even if you see some relief in the symptoms. Medical experts believe that interrupted the treatment would support reoccurrence of the disease as well as the bronchitis symptoms to become more intense.\nThose that suffer from chronic bronchitis start by having an inflammation of their bronchial tubes. These are your air passageways, remember and therefore are very important to be clear so that air can move easily in and out of them allowing you to breathe.\nNow, the question is how to recognize the potential bronchitis symptoms (acute or chronic) in order to seek immediate medical attention. Here is a detailed guide in this regard to help you:\nChronic bronchitis is often caused by smoking, but its not the only time that you can get it. You can also get chronic bronchitis from air pollution that is severe or toxic gasses that are in the area in which you work.\nChronic bronchitis is a serious health condition that can lead to or even tell you that there is something else wrong with the body. For example, chronic bronchitis can be an indication that you are suffering from asthma or lung disorders. In fact, those that do suffer from chronic bronchitis are more likely to end up with lung cancer than those that do not. Lung cancer is one of the leader's in death among people that smoke for long periods of time.\nchronic bronchitis symptoms | chronic bronchitis sputum | chronic bronchitis statistics | chronic bronchitis supplements | chronic bronchitis symptom |\nContact Us | About Us | Privacy Policy | RSS Feed | chronic bronchitis symptoms",

        "title": "Amazon Kindle Accessibility: What?! | The BudCast",
        "raw_content": "Amazon Kindle Accessibility: What?!\nThis week, the blind and visually impaired community got a surprise, one that we\u2019ve been waiting for for a long time, and one that, it\u2019s safe to say, most of us weren\u2019t expecting. (This would be why it was a surprise, right?) Amazon announced that its Kindle app for iOS now had new accessibility features, thus making the app usable by blind and visually impaired iPhone users. They also promise improvements to accessibility on their other platforms. You can read about it at this link. I downloaded the app, with a great deal of excitement and anticipation I might add, and it appears to be everything they say it is, with access to not only the reading of books, but also highlighting, Emailing excerpts, notes, looking up words in the dictionary, and searches. In short, this app seems to have done it right, rather than doing it fast.\nThe day after Amazon\u2019s announcement, I got an Email from this press release. I thought I was responding to an Email list\u2013it was early still, and I was still waking up, but I instead seem to have Emailed instead to either the NFB\u2019s other PR person or to the guy that runs iBooks and the Nook reader from Barnes and Noble. I think, though haven\u2019t looked in a while, that it may well be better than KNFB\u2019s own Blio, which should probably embarrass somebody. So, specifically, what improvements would we suggest?\nIn this Email, I neglected to mention Kobo or Google Play books, both of which have at least some access features, or at least, work to some extent with commending of a far inferior implementation in 2009, this current press release almost sounds angry that Amazon did anything about the problem.\nI\u2019ve played a bit with this newly accessible Kindle app, and it\u2019s good. It was done right. Where\u2019s the acknowledgement of that? Why commend a half-baked effort that is unsuitable for more than the most casual reading on one hand, but practically spit at a stellar example of what can be done on the other? Could it be because Amazon did it without asking for the NFB\u2019s blessing or input first? In fact, it looks like they may not have asked for anyone\u2019s input, as this came as a real bombshell of an announcement with no leaks.\nReally, those of y\u2019all in the national office, would a \u201cGood work, guys, thanks\u201d and virtual pat on the back really be that difficult? Would it hurt you so much? It would certainly do a lot to raise your PR standing in the community. Absolutely do not back away from the stance that access to Kindle on other platforms is necessary, even vital. Please don\u2019t. Such access is critical, and we should not rest until we have it. I have no quarrel with that. But would some recognition of a good effort in which you did not have a hand really be so bad?\nBy way of full disclosure, I am an active member of the National Federation of the Blind. I have been one for over 20 years. Until a more effective membership organization that mirrors my own philosophy of blindness comes along, I expect to continue to be thus affiliated. That said, I fully expect that this post will not make me very popular among the leadership.\nUpdate: The NFB\u2019s technology center has published a review of the Kindle app, which you can read on the center\u2019s blog. I think that the justifications for grading are fair, and I also believe the criticisms are equally fair. As I haven\u2019t tested all these features myself, I have no reason to argue with their findings. I may well have weighted things differently, and I might have been a bit more forgiving for this being their first run at it. I may not, too. At any rate, I have no quarrel with the review, and if Amazon endeavors to improve the accessibility features they\u2019ve implemented, we\u2019ll all be better for it. Watch this space, I guess.\nEven so, I stand by my opinion that the tone of the press release could have been more positive and supportive of these initial efforts on the iOS platform, long time in coming though they are.\nUpdate #2: 05/07/2013:\nHere\u2019s a link to a different take on how Amazon did with implementing accessibility features. This review is much more positive, and it doesn\u2019t seem to have run into the same problems that the NFB technology center did in their review. While some might say I\u2019m waffling, I also have no quarrel with this review, think its points are also valid, and believe that it was conducted in good faith and as objectively as possible, excitement over access to over a million titles notwithstanding. It\u2019s certainly possible that the reading experience differs between iPad and iPhone, where bugs may exist in one and not the other, and there may also be problems with braille display driver implementations or conflicts. I think all of us will be interested to see how more hardware combinations do with the new Kindle app.\nThis entry was posted in Assistive Technology, Computing, Opinion and tagged accessibility, Amazon, computers, ebooks, Kindle, NFB.\n3 thoughts on \u201cAmazon Kindle Accessibility: What?!\u201d\nrecoveringlawyer says:\nMonday, 6 May 2013 at 5:24 am\nIt is important to remember that Amazon is aggressively pushing Kindle devices and ebooks as a solution for schools. Specifically the company is promoting WhisperCast, which allows teachers and administrators to push Kindle content to many devices, including those using Apple\u2019s iOS. This was the focus of the demonstration by the National federation of the Blind outside Amazon\u2019s headquarters in December and of the concerns we raise at http://www.nfb.org/kindle-books. Whatever the merits of the new Kindle iOS app, its accessibility features are not robust enough for use by blind students.\nSeroTalk Podcast 153: Scan My Brain | SeroTalk says:\n[\u2026] Amazon Kindle Accessibility: What?!

        "raw_content": "Anand Singh, Manager in Life Sciences Advisory Group at Sathguru Management Consultants.\nAgricultural Transformation in the Making in India\nA number of path-breaking technologies are transforming agriculture regionally and globally like precision agriculture, stress tolerancecrops (transgenics), novel delivery mechanisms for agri-inputs, Root Zone Optimization (ROOTS) etc.\n23 December, 2017 by Anand Singh\nIndianagriculture is still primarily manual and use of technologies for removing inefficiencies across value chains have been few and far between. However, nearly a decade and half in to the 21st century, agriculture is poised to take a leap. Under the umbrella of Information and Communication Technology (ICT)tools different technologies and platforms will create linkages across the agricultural value chain bridging the gap of information access about technology, services and marketing of crop produce etc. This is expected to be driven by innovative entrepreneurs in the startup ecosystem and MNCs through HYV, novel delivery mechanisms of agri-inputs, protective seed coatings, biotic &abiotic stress tolerances, supply chain optimizations etc. Some of these technologies are already in use, positively impacting lives of stakeholders,whereas some others are in early stages of development, implementation and are expected to transform agriculture step-by-step in next couple of years. Some of the path-breaking changes happening in agri-technology in India are discussed here.\nThe biggest transformation will happen via e-commerce platforms, helping farmers sell their produce at the farm gate and having the cascading effect on the supply chain. Some successful models are already transforming the lives of farmers and other stakeholders. The government is also focused on creating an integrated trading portal by linking all Agricultural Produce Marketing Committees(APMCs) in the different parts of the country. Such platforms will create a uniform marketing system in the country not only for the crop produce but also for agri-inputs and will help farmers in receiving better remuneration for their agricultural commodities.\nApplications associated with \u201cDigital Farming\u201d are in practice for some time now and expected to be in the forefront of changing dynamics in agriculture with the help of increased mobile penetration and better internet connectivity. The wider adoption of Digital Farming assisting farmers (in irrigation techniques, agriculture practices, disease forecasting and management, rainfall forecasts and suitable solutions)is expected to qualitatively enhance information delivery of technical know-how to farmers through e-updates and other innovative ways through affordable agricultural platforms increasing agricultural productivity leading to higher economic profit. The corporate tie-ups with the mobile technology providers and start up ecosystem will bring a sea-change in the way farming and associated activities are being done in the country.\nAnother path -breaking service for the small landholding farmers will be the platforms for \u201clast-mile delivery\u201d of the key products(seeds, pesticides, fertilizers etc.) and services (mechanized farm activities like ploughing, harvesting, irrigation etc.) through ICT tools and Internet of things (IoT). There are several startups in Indian ecosystem that have deployed suitable platforms and deliver quality services to farmers at their doorstep in specific geographies to improve efficiencies in agriculture.\nA number of path-breaking technologies are transforming agriculture regionally and globally like precision agriculture, stress tolerancecrops (transgenics), novel delivery mechanisms for agri-inputs, Root Zone Optimization (ROOTS) etc. Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in agriculture especially for delivery of various products and services, like pesticides and fertilizers and optimizing the costs by targeted delivery to specific fields and even plants, both for crops and weeds is a developing platform and is expected to gather momentum once government\u2019s regulation towards civil use of UAVs are in place.\nThe transformational impact of these technologies in India will be a factor of establishing and strengthening the innovation ecosystem ably supported by encouraging policy environment in both the conventional and modern agricultural systems like water \u220btrogen use efficiency, transgenic crops, biologicals (pesticides, fertilizers, stimulants and seed coats), UAVs, satellite imaging, big data analytics and precision agriculture etc.",

        "raw_content": "Running back Lorenzo Lingard is one of the top hurdlers and sprinters in the Southeast U.S. (247Sports)\n[Mark Richt, Miami agree to contract extension]\nMiami sees Lorenzo Lingard becoming one of the ACC\u2019s top running backs.\nFor now, he\u2019s running track.\nThe five-star true freshman made his college debut at the National Relay Championships last weekend, hosted by the University of Arkansas, and it went well.\nLingard stepped in and ran the anchor leg of Miami\u2019s 4\u00d7100 relay team, along with sophomore McKinly Brown, junior Myles Valentine and junior Isaiah Taylor. The Hurricanes finished eighth of nine teams, but Lingard helped them to a season-best finish of 40.44 seconds.\nMiami\u2019s plan for Lingard, according to a school spokesman, is to run the 110-meter hurdles for the rest of the spring.\nLingard, who would be competing against high-schoolers this spring if he didn\u2019t enroll early at Miami, was a high school junior when he ran his personal best of 13.94 seconds in the 110 hurdles. That would place him among this season\u2019s national collegiate leaders.\nLingard, 6-feet and 195 pounds, could in time become a 215-pound tailback with breakaway speed. Rated No. 2 among running backs in the recruiting class of 2018, he spent the spring as No. 3 on Miami\u2019s depth chart behind junior-to-be Travis Homer (5-11, 200) and sophomore DeeJay Dallas (5-10, 220).\nLingard is expected to make his home track debut next Thursday through Saturday, when Miami hosts the ACC Championships. The NCAA East Preliminary is May 24-26 in Tampa. The NCAA Championships are June 6-9 in Eugene, Ore.\nUM\u2019s Greentree (football) and Cobb (track and soccer) fields are adjacent, and plenty of athletes have bounced between the two. According to UM, 14 track school records are held by football players. Names in the record book include Randal Hill, Bennie Blades, Horace Copeland, Ed Reed, Santana Moss and Vince Wilfork. The most recent two-sport star was cornerback Artie Burns, who broke a 38-year-old American junior record in the 60-meter hurdles in 2014. He is preparing for his third season with the Pittsburgh Steelers.\nBurns\u2019 brother, Thomas, was last year\u2019s national leader in the 300 meter hurdles (35.25) and is second this year (36.56). He has committed to run track at Miami.\nMiami extends Mark Richt's contract through 2023\nN\u2019Kosi Perry honors Miami Hurricanes teammate Malek Young with tattoo",

I'll post a list of my july favorites and some of what I consider the best frames. Sometimes they give me ideas and get me thinking about new projects I might want to start to work on.\nI really liked the whole film but specially the final credits that perfectly fit the sad ending to this love story. Photographs of the characters are interrupted by the sparks of the fireworks playing to the music of Grizzly Bear. I thought it was so simple but stunning.\nI was looking forward to watch this film and it didn't let me down. For me it was like the Am\u00e9lie of the English but in a much funnier way that only English know how to do it. A welch teenage boy tries to find love and also himself. With the 70's on the background it has the best of vintage and lovely music by Alex Turner.\nThere is nothing wrong with a teenager sucking his thumb while he searches for answers in this world. Perfect timing in both opening and ending credits with music of The Polyphonic Spree.\nIt's such a cliche to love Audrey Hepburn, but I think is inevitable because most of her films are really good and she always looks amazing. In this one we see a couple going through different stages of their relationship, only to see how close they are to be separated forever despite of always shared a big passion for each other. I think everyone can identify with the characters and they're problems and situations. Me, I identify with her outfits...",

        "title": "C.A. Seward 1884 - 1939",
        "raw_content": "Shortly after establishing his freelance commercial design studio in Wichita, Seward began a collaboration with another tenant of the Butts Building H.R. (Henry R. - Fannie) Schmidt. To date records document that Schmidt in 1911 established himself as a wholesaler and retailer as well as publisher of post cards. Schmidt\u2019s first known location was in suite 416-421 of the Butts Building at the Southwest corner of 1st Street and North Lawrence (Broadway). Seward\u2019s first design studio, opened in 1909, also occupied space in the the original Butts building at 125 South Lawrence. This postcard design venture demonstrates the wide range of Seward\u2019s skill as a commercial artist.\nIn 1911, Seward received a commission from the Kansas Development Association and created the design for a commemorative, promotional postcard for the 50th Anniversary of the State of Kansas\u2019 admission into statehood. The next year, in 1912 he was again commissioned to create a promotional postcard to celebrate Kansas Day 1913. This second design of 1912 included a blank area in which local merchants could insert their own advertising copy. H.R. Schmidt company published and promoted both of these postcards.\nThis same year, 1911, Seward and Schmidt also collaborated on two series of cartoon character postcards. The first was a series of eight known as \u201cHans and Gretchen.\u201d The second was called the \u201cSeward Kids\u201d and it was also a series of eight cards. Both of these series are signed by Seward and copyrighted by H.R. Schimidt & Co. but they are not imprinted with a date or location for the publisher. By 1912 research indicates that the H.R. Schmidt Company also had a location in Denver, Colorado although until 1923 Schmidt can be documented in Wichita. Research shows that in 1917 Schmidt had established a retail post card shop located at 106 North Main, in the Schweiter Building. By 1923 he appears to have sold or just closed his postcard business and become a full time realtor.\nAnother group of known postcards was a series of portraits of Native Americans. None of these images are signed or dated. Some have handwritten notations about the subject of the portrait. In a letter to his friend, western author, Stanely Vestal (aka, Walter Stanley Campbell) Seward mentions his photographs of these Native Americans.\nThe final group consists of images that are reproductions of prints and sculpture by Seward. Each card includes the image with a title and notation that the work is by C.A. Seward. These appear to have been used by Seward in his correspondence with other artists. In the Seward Family collection there is a postcard of Seward\u2019s lithograph Taos Gate with a note to printmaker, Louis Lozowick.\nKansas Day Postcards\nSeward Kids\nSeries of 8 published in 1911copyrighted H.R.S. & Co. printed in black on buff paper\nsigned by Seward\nSeries of 8 published in 1911 copyrighted, H.R.S. & Co.\nSeries of 8 published about 1909-1916\nunsigned and not documented\nVarious other postcard format reproductions of Seward\u2019s prints and sculpture also exist. None are signed dated or copyrighted. It is assumed that these may also have been published by H.R. Schmidt.\nSeward - postcards",

For clarity and to help you out too, go to this website so you will have an idea on the various things involved in procuring a roofing company.

On this, you can opt to read more here.\nSince such a situation happens greatly, it is up to you to do the job of wisely hiring a contractor to carry out the activity. For you to assume that all your roofing issues will be tended to, it is important that you, yourself, can already guarantee that what you are getting for your rooftop service is a considerable and reliable level of administration unlike any other.

It would be better if the roofing company you go with would allow full payment once the work is done, otherwise opt for the one that would require only at the very least, a partial payment for them to fully commence with the project. Some of the telltale signs that you would notice if this company you are dealing with is not really the right one, includes them asking for monetary installments even if the work has not been done, as well as the need to carry out the activity under the table too. Overall, go for the one company who can explain the entire process in simple and easy-to-understand terms which you are bound to agree with. Hence, the bottom line here is for you to know more about the commercial roofing company you go with before anything else.\nPrevious PostPrev Article What No One Knows About Improvements\nNext PostNext Article Lifestyle \u2013 Getting Started & Next Steps",

With a number of prestigious building construction projects to its account, the client is known for its specialized services for industrial, institutional, and commercial properties. As an integral service provider, the client has carved a niche for itself by delivering cost-effective services within the stipulated time to its growing list of clients. With more than 600 top buildings to its name, the client focuses on safety and sustainability of the buildings through centralized service provisioning with BIM.\nThe client wanted help in creating a bill of quantity (BoQ) for a proposed extension to an existing building. The client wanted to understand the contractual requirements of the proposed extension in a professional way which adhered to the international codes and standards. They provided the drawings of the existing building as well as the proposed extension for BoQ generation. The requirement involved conducting a thorough material take out (MTO) for tasks including masonry, concrete works, excavation work, etc. The outputs needed to follow the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) format to ensure international standards and guidelines are cross-checked while deriving the BoQ.\nThe challenges included difficulty in understanding and analyzing the building drawings as everything was written in Spanish.

There\u2019s a Web Audio Slack\nAlright friends, welcome back to JS Party. You know that we love music around here; we like those BMC beats. You know we\u2019ve known to do bad rapping even, and we like music\u2026 We aren\u2019t good at music, but we enjoy it, and we thought we\u2019d bring on some folks who are actually good at music, and Javascript music\u2026 But first of all, let me introduce my co-host today, Suz Hinton. Suz, how are you doing?\nHey! It\u2019s really good to be back. I\u2019ve not been at JS Party for a while and I miss you all so much.\nMissing you as well. Suz, are you a musical person? Do you sing any songs, do you play any instruments?\nNo. I played keyboard for a while when I was a kid and I was good at that, and then I tried violin for two years and just never really progressed. [laughs] So I definitely leave it to the experts these days.\nAs do I, besides my bad rapping. That\u2019s about all I do. I played clarinet in the fifth grade, switched to percussion, because I thought drums were cool, and then I just switched completely away and have not touched many instruments since then, expect to break them, or something. So I\u2019m not musical myself, but a huge appreciator of music, probably more so because I\u2019m so bad at it, you can appreciate the skill involved.\nToday we have a couple of super-special guests, two-thirds of a band called Nested Loops. We\u2019re joined by Jan Monschke and Kahlil Lechelt. Guys, thanks for joining us on JS Party.\nKahlil Lechelt\nJan Monschke\nHey! Thanks for having us.\nLet\u2019s give a shout-out to the silent party here, the silent member, @bonotes on Twitter. Bo couldn\u2019t be on the show today, but definitely a huge contributing part to the band.\nDefinitely. And we\u2019ll definitely talk about him.\nWe have to talk about him, yeah.\nSo for the loyal JS Party listeners, you\u2019ll probably remember that I mentioned Nested Loops off the cuff a couple weeks back on the show with Safia and team, talking about documentation. I did a real-life retweet of Kahlil, who had mentioned something funny on Twitter about documentation, and I thought it was poignant and completely relevant to that conversation. And I mentioned, Kahlil, that you\u2019re in a band called Nested Loops\u2026 And I was just speaking off the cuff; I called it a reggae band, which was really silly to say that. I knew it was more of an electronic, like rap, like EDM with rap and Javascript band, but the reason why I said reggae is because when you actually come in and do your rapping, you have kind of a reggae style or Jamaican (I don\u2019t know) accent to your rapping. Is that fair to say, at least?\n[00:04:11.07] So did I offend you by calling you guys a reggae band?\n[laughs] No, not at all. I thought it was funny. But yeah, it\u2019s really electronic music that is kind of mixing hip-hop, electronic music, and this Jamaican genre of music called dancehall; it kind of comes from reggae, but \u2013 it\u2019s similar(ish) maybe to reggae, but it has a very different pace. It\u2019s actually more like hip-hop, I would say, that actually reggae.\nYeah, absolutely. So we can describe it all day, and one of the hardest things for me to do is describe genres of music, especially with so much immersion and blending that is happening\u2026 But we could also just play it, since we\u2019re all here with our ears, right? We have one of your tracks set up to go, and I\u2019m supposed to say \u201cDJ, lay it down!\u201d, or I can\u2019t remember what else to say\u2026 Play that funky music, white boy! [laughter] So go ahead, DJ. Let\u2019s hear some Nested Loops.\nNested Loops Song Sample\nSo there\u2019s a little taste. If you wanna hear more of this, we\u2019ll link up to their Soundcloud in the show notes. If it sounds familiar to you, it\u2019s potentially because you were at JSConf EU last year, where this was performed live on stage. Suz, you were there.\nI was. I\u2019ve actually seen Nested Loops perform live twice, and both times I\u2019ve been both blown away by the music, the effects, the fact that it\u2019s all run live, but also just seeing my friends and speakers I look up to being sampled in that way\u2026 So unexpected. I really think that that is so much fun. It\u2019s the best opener to a conference that I\u2019ve ever seen.\nHeeey! Awesome! [laughter]\nHigh praise, high praise\u2026\nI think that the music by itself stands alone very well, but when you\u2019re immersed in things like projection mapping, and CSS-driven lights - and I realize that I\u2019m spoiling part of this episode, but\u2026 It\u2019s just so exciting!\nGood job, guys! Well, I was not there, but I remember seeing this on YouTube, and having the extremest form of FOMO ever, thinking \u201cOh, this is legit! This is like a concert, this is amazing!\u201d and hilarious at the same time to see all these non-sequiturs or these out of context talks getting pulled into a song that a) actually sounds like good music, and then b) makes you laugh when you hear the content of the things. The JSON payload is just hilarious, like \u201cWhat is in there\u2026?!\u201d Because we\u2019ve all thought that like \u201cOkay, I got this JSON, but now I have to go figure out what the crap is inside.\u201d Tell us about the start of Nested Loops\u2026 Did it come together for JSConf? Was this a band that pre-existed? Give us a little bit of you guys\u2019 background.\n[00:08:23.15] Well, this band started in \u2013 I think it was 2014\u2026 No, it was 2015. I had a talk at JSConf 2014, which was about web audio and my master\u2019s thesis about collaborative audio production in a browser, and I had this idea to take this a step further and not just produce music in your browser, but actually perform in your browser. Then the organizers of JSConf EU asked me to perform the next year, because they already had musical performances to start the conference.\nThen I came across Kahlil on Twitter. I\u2019m not sure why I was following him; I think he was on another podcast actually, and he was tweeting about him being a musician in his pre-developer life\u2026 And then he shared a video and I was just blown away by his performance. He\u2019s a pretty good rapper, and I really like the style. So when JSConf asked me to put together a performance, I was like \u201cYeah, I have to talk to Kahlil about this.\u201d That\u2019s kind of how it started.\nKahlil, how about from your perspective? Do you have a history? Were you in rap? Were you a musician previously? Were you in other bands? Tell us about yourself.\nYeah, I mean I\u2019ve been in bands since high school. At the beginning it was rock bands, or indie rock bands, or grunge\u2026 And at some point I got into rapping. At the end of high school I teamed up with some friends, we had this multicultural rap group - German rap, and French rap, and Arabian rap\u2026 It was kind of cool. We worked on an album for a couple years, and then did some contest and won it, and that was really cool.\nThen everybody just dispersed into different directions because people had to go study, and stuff. I was one of the only ones that stuck with music a little bit as a hobby, and I went to go study\u2026 But then I really got into dancehall, and there was kind of like a dancehall/reggae kind of hype going on in Germany. In every city you had sound systems playing that kind of music; it was at the beginning of the 2000\u2019s, it was a really big hype. So I really got into that.\nI had a gig with my hip-hop band back then, and there was this dancehall sound system that was playing after us, and I really loved the music, and we linked up. So I really got deep into that music, and I just kind of gravitated to the energy of that music very strongly\u2026 And I still love it. And I just wanted to do it. I saw these artists perform on stage, on videos on YouTube and stuff like that, and I was like \u201cThat\u2019s kind of what I wanna do, so I\u2019m gonna try to get into this.\u201d I got into the language - or accent, or whatever you wanna call it [unintelligible 00:11:52.01] and then I got kind of serious about it. I recorded a demo, I sent it to labels, and there was actually a label in Germany that took me on, wanted to mentor me and manage me, and we did\u2026\n[00:12:11.13] After my studies I was just doing that for like four years. I was living in Leipzig (Germany), where that label was, and I was really stoked to be with that label because back in the day they were the only German kind of label that was releasing really good music in that genre\u2026 At least that was my opinion at the time. [unintelligible 00:12:38.17] to start to work with them, and then I started working with them and we recorded a lot of singles and released a lot of stuff digitally. I was touring in Europe a lot during those four years, and it went kind of well. It was pretty undergroundy, the whole scene\u2026 It did okay.\nOne of the most exciting things was that there was a Japanese label that wanted to do an album with me and we went to Japan for a week to promote it, and stuff like that. That was really cool.\nYeah, hanging out in Tokyo for a week\u2026 That was really awesome. So that was just part of my life, or was my life, for a long time. Then I just made the decision to go back into development after a while, because it didn\u2019t really work out financially for me, and also, the team that I was surrounded by was not a really good fit in the end\u2026 And development was always a passion of mine too, and it was fun to get back into that as well. But I also met my now wife, I needed some stability, so I started working as a developer again, and then that became my main life\u2026 But I was always doing music somehow in the background. I\u2019m always doing music somehow, a little bit, here or there.\nThen this happened, where Jan saw \u2013 for some reason, I felt like tweeting out this video because nobody really\u2026 Because on Twitter people know me as this Javascript developer and nobody knows me from back then, so I tweeted out that video - which is this video we made in Japan, in the streets, and I was performing that song from that album - just to kind of shock people\u2026 [laughter] And just to have fun. Then Jan responded to that, and that was kind of how it came together. He was like, \u201cDo you wanna do this performance with me?\u201d and I said \u201cYeah, sure. Let\u2019s figure something out.\u201d That\u2019s basically how it started.\nSo Jan would be the technical part, I would be the rapping part, and there was somebody else who was supposed to be the music part, so somebody who produces the music\u2026 And we had no idea what we were actually going to do back then. It was just like \u201cHey, Jan does all this stuff in the browser and make sure that Javascript takes care of playing the music\u201d at least, right? Or you can manipulate the music, or something like that. There was this vague idea.\nThen there was this other guy who was into producing, and I was (like I said) a rapper, and we were then brainstorming in the Slack channel and we were trying to come up with a musical style that we could all agree upon. I think the styles that me and Jan wanted to do weren\u2019t really a good fit for our then third person\u2026 Is that fair, Jan?\nYeah, definitely. There were band problems before we actually started. [laughter]\nYeah, you\u2019ve gotta have band problems, right?\nWe had to split up before we started\u2026\nIt\u2019s a must-have. [laughter]\n[00:16:08.22] Yeah\u2026 So that didn\u2019t work out. My brother, Boris, who is @bonotes on Twitter - he is a really great producer\u2026 I mean, in my opinion. [laughs] He makes great electronic music, and he\u2019s been doing it for many years, too. And he had just all these really cool beats lying around on his computer, so I was like \u201cHey, let\u2019s just bring in Boris\u201d, because we didn\u2019t really have tons of time left; we had like a couple months or three months, and we had nothing, so we needed to figure something out. And we had kind of \u2013 at least I had really kind of a high\u2026 What do you call \u2013 I only know the German word; I just wanted high quality when it comes to the music.\nOh, having like high standards.\nYeah, when it comes to the quality of the music I wanted to have something that I would really like. But in order to have that quality, then you have to produce a track, and then everybody has to agree on it, and stuff like that\u2026 And producing something like that, that has the quality that we wanted, takes a long time, and we only had these 2-3 months. So I suggested that we just get Boris on board and just review some of his beats that he has lying around.\nWe did that, and luckily, we found something that Jan also liked, and I liked, and Boris likes his music of course, and Boris was on board, he was happy to help\u2026 So he did some more production work on that, and I started to write some lyrics, and then Jan was working on getting the music to play in the browser, as well as also video snippets. But Jan, I don\u2019t remember how that idea then came up\u2026 That was also still very vague, I think; we wanted to take talks and then cut them up, and we really didn\u2019t know how we would do that\u2026 Do you remember?\nYeah, so the general idea is of course not an original idea. I saw this TED talk by Mark Ronson, who\u2019s a pretty well-known music producer\u2026\nHe had this talk about how sampling changed the music industry, or something\u2026 And it was this amazing TED talk where he remixed TED talks (in a TED talk) and it was hilarious.\nVery well-produced. It\u2019s pretty good. I still listen to it from time to time. And yeah, I kind of wanted to do the same. The cool thing was Kahlil\u2019s tweet, where he talked about his musician life, came at the right time, because for a very long time it was just me having this idea and not knowing how to execute, because my musical background is rather shaky\u2026 So finding musicians on Twitter that also liked Javascript was like \u201cWhat are the odds\u2026?!\u201d, so that had to happen. So I think it was this TED talk that influenced this entire thing.\nThat\u2019s right, that\u2019s right. That was the original idea. Then we thought, okay, we can take Javascript talks from people that we admire, and then try to cut that together to something, to a message of some sort, or something like that. Then what we started to do is just download all these talks that we thought were funny or interesting \u2013 well, not funny, but mostly interesting\u2026\n[00:19:51.04] Some of them were also funny\u2026 And we tried to identify segments in those talks, or little snippets that we could take out of context and then put together with other snippets in order to produce something that would be compelling in some way.\nAnd how long did that process take? You had to sit and watch talks, and take notes, and do timestamps, and things like that\u2026 How long was that process, given that you were starting to get close to the deadline?\nThe deadline also was, like Kahlil said, three months away, so we didn\u2019t have that much time. I think we met at your place in Stuttgart. The three of us - we had never met in person\u2026 And then we just downloaded all these videos and we were literally for two and a half days watching videos, taking notes, and then kind of sticking it together, or something.\nI guess we still did more on weekends after that, but it was definitely dozens of talks we watched.\nAt JSConf were the organizers aware of what the final output was gonna be, or were they giving you any guidance? Or was there sort of like complete silence and then you presented them with this thing?\nWe checked back every now and then, just to feel out \u201cIs this okay? We wanna do this\u2026\u201d, and basically they just said \u201cYeah, go ahead and do this\u201d, and we just did it.\nWe never showed them the final thing though.\nThey were also not sure what was going to happen.\nYeah, exactly. Especially for the first time, we showed them the final thing, of course, and then \u2013 because we would not just show up and do something that they never saw before\u2026 That\u2019d be crazy. But we didn\u2019t really know until like almost the last day how it would actually come out.\nWhat also came into that \u2013 we did not only take the audio snippets, we also took the video snippets, and then those had to be also presented in some cool way, right? Because they come from different videos, of different quality, and they should all kind of look cohesive and be branded in a JSConf kind of manner\u2026 So Boris also came up with a way to put a filter on the videos and make them all look pixelated, and then have the talkers kind of be silhouettes, in kind of the JSConf colors, and then Jan figured out some hack to actually play those videos in the browser, so that we can trigger them on the beat, live, and they\u2019d just play without a lag. So that was also like a really hacky kind of thing. Jan, maybe you wanna talk about that.\n[00:23:35.25] This is like the first time we did this, and since it was a short deadline, we just had to make something work, so I\u2019m very not proud of the software stack there. The problem is if you wanna press a button on your computer or like a media controller and then want to have your browser play a video and sound without much delay - because in music you only have a couple of milliseconds to be on point - we had to use very obscure hacks to get videos to play right on time. You have to preload all the videos, transform them, get their data URL, and then keep all these videos in memory, and then they would play okay, but from like a 5-second video snippet, that would generate 200 megabytes of RAM. I think at some point I used 3 GB of RAM with these 20 buttons that we were supposed to press. It was pretty much like put everything into RAM in an obscure way, and then it\u2019s fast enough.\nAnd it all came together.\nYeah, it all came together. And we ended up just playing around with the snippets on top of the beat at my place on one weekend when we were meeting all together, and that\u2019s when actually the story of how the snippets play off of each other came together. It just was funny\u2026 We just tried to talk about Javascript and about its quirks, or let the speakers talk about Javascript and its quirks, and what Javascript is or isn\u2019t, in a funny way where these snippets are taken out of context\u2026 And because they play off of each other, they then make you laugh. That\u2019s kind of the recipe that worked for us the best, and it was the easiest to come with that and play around with that - just take them completely out of context and see what happens\u2026 But also kind of pick up on subjects of the last year of Javascript world, for instance functional programming, or React, or virtual DOM.\nI think our first track that we did for JSConf had a whole bunch of \u201cVirtual DOM, virtual DOM\u201d, in the first iteration\u2026 [laughter] Just \u201cVirtual DOM, virtual DOM, virtual DOM\u2026\u201d It sounded funny, and it was such a big topic\u2026 Yeah, so we were playing with actual big topics, and these snippets out of context. It was funny, and it was fun.\nYeah, I especially liked that we make Crockford say that he loves classes. [laughter] That was amazing. There\u2019s a smirk on my face when I listen to that line. [laughter]\nCan you give us a few more technical details around the tools you used? You\u2019ve sort of alluded to having some challenges when it came to trying to drive this whole thing with Javascript, but can you maybe just break down the pieces at a high-level, so we can sort of drill down on a deeper level for some of the other parts?\nYou have your MIDI, but then is that connected to Javascript? And then you have your videos, and is that playing in a browser? What kind of tools did you use that are standard for this sort of industry, and then where did you have to get creative when it came to Javascript, such as having three gigs of RAM?\nYeah, so there are two iterations of the software. There\u2019s the one that is a good piece of software that I did for the last two years, the last two performances, and then there\u2019s this obscure hack. But essentially, it\u2019s this - you have a MIDI instrument, and it has a bunch of buttons. Midi is just a standard of like a messaging format that is used for mainly music hall devices. Let\u2019s say I press a button on this thing that is connected to my computer, and then the browser registers that through the Web MIDI API. There\u2019s actually an API that lets you connect and talk with these big music MIDI controllers.\n[00:28:02.24] Essentially, what you do is you press a button, you get this message in your browser, and then you need to have some sort of system that knows \u201cOkay, if I press this button, then I play this video\u201d, and it should do that with the least amount of delay as possible. That\u2019s kind of the basics. That\u2019s pretty much what was the first iteration. It was like, I press a button, and then it does a thing.\nThen what becomes tricky - the MIDI thingy is very real-time, so I press this button and it actually plays the video\u2026 But as we\u2019re all just humans and maybe not perfect in timing, usually music software has this thing built in where it kind of quantizes (I think the word is \u201cquantizing\u201d, but I think I shouldn\u2019t use this word), so it\u2019s like I press this button and the music software knows when I actually should play this. I\u2019m actually a bit too early, so they will schedule it to be 12 milliseconds later, to perfectly match the background beat that is playing. The first iteration of the software didn\u2019t have that at all, and then in the second iteration we built this whole thing around this that had like a scheduler in it, and it\u2019s like \u201cOkay, I know I\u2019m at beat X, bar Y, and then I know now I have to play this, what you just pressed.\u201d\nThere were some glitches in the first performance, that probably nobody who\u2019s not really listening to if there are quirks and glitches hears, but as a performer you definitely hear these things. The second iteration had this whole scheduling built into it.\nSo yeah, the first one was only a plain Javascript HTML website, and it had a Canvas element\u2026 Let me go back one second. The video had all the audio in it, so you would play the video with your MIDI device, you would trigger that, and then there was a Canvas that was connected to the Web Audio API, which is another set of API, that would analyze the audio of the video and then would show waveforms as a visualization of what they are talking about, and we would use that. It would also use the Web Audio API to actually route the audio of that video to your external speakers, and all that stuff. It was very bare bones. Does that make sense?\nYes, it totally made sense.\nI really liked that you talked about the scheduler, too. I\u2019ve definitely written a sequencer before in Javascript, and because I\u2019m so bad at music, I just said \u201cWhichever beat it\u2019s closest to, just schedule it for that next time.\u201d [laughs]\nSo there were other parts to this as well, right?\nFor this one not so much, actually. The first iteration didn\u2019t really have it. The creative process was Boris, the producer - he would tell me which samples he wanted to use, and then I would go to GitHub and edit this and then send it back to him\u2026 Because I don\u2019t think we\u2019ve mentioned this, but Boris is actually not a developer.\nYeah, but not a software architect\u2026 [laughter]\nThat\u2019s a common misconception\u2026\nThat\u2019s the question that everybody asked at JSConf\u2026 [laughs]\nHe draws pictures of buildings, right? [laughter]\nYeah, yeah. So the way this worked was he would tell me the samples and I would implement this in this website, and then I had to deploy this\u2026 So there was a huge roundtrip time for getting the song together, and it hindered him in his creative process a lot. So in the second iteration of the software I built an Electron app that had this software built in where you can load all your samples in, and you can kind of like define the setup of your MIDI controller in there\u2026 And then I wanna press this button, and it\u2019s like a visual representation of your MIDI controller, you click on it, and you select \u201cOh, this button should play this video, this audio, these effects\u201d and all that stuff.\n[00:32:27.21] I built this software so that we could work much more efficiently on future songs\u2026 So I wouldn\u2019t have to deploy a new version of the website when he had an idea, to implement different parts of the song. So that was a much bigger production around this in the second iteration.\nWhenever there was a bug, he would just send me his zip file form this Electron app, or that exported format that I came up with, and then I would debug this, and send it back, and all these things. That was really fun. My first Electron app.\nThat\u2019s a very cool collaboration.\nYeah, it\u2019s so cool that you can do that with Javascript, that you can make a desktop app and implement something with drag and drop, or upload those snippets in there and stuff, so he could use it very easily. That was really awesome. It\u2019s actually a really good, very cool piece of software. If you wanna do this sort of thing, it\u2019s all on GitHub.\nDid you say that you did it in Electron as well?\nElectron is kind of like the host for all of this. It has the Web MIDI support, so it supports two kinds of controllers only. One is a really cheap one that I have two of, and then there\u2019s a really expensive one that I had to borrow, but Boris really likes\u2026 So it does that, and then it does all the scheduling, and the drag and drop of files, videos, audio, all that stuff, scheduling\u2026 And effects, and also video effects; that\u2019s something that we added later on.\nThis whole thing has a live mode; when you press TAB, it goes into this live mode that is rendering all the videos with a WebGL-shader-enhanced representation of the snippet that you wanna play. That was done by Martin, who is the permanent guest in the Nested Loops. [laughs] He\u2019s the visual part of this group.\nSo yeah, in the second iteration, this was built into the software as well, and because we already spoke MIDI, I added a little thing just right before the second time we performed\u2026 That was like a MIDI controller where you could control parameters of the WebGL experience. So I can live-change the size of the dots, and opacity, and all that stuff. That\u2019s the big second iteration of that software.\nSo that\u2019s out there, people can use it, you can give us the GitHub link and we\u2019ll share it in the show notes?\nThat\u2019s spectacular. I did not know that.\nIt\u2019s all open source.\nSo I know that Martin is not here, but can you tell us a little bit about the fact that it wasn\u2019t just the music in the video, but there was a lot of other stuff going on, such as the lights in the actual room as well\u2026? I might be remembering this incorrectly, but were they controlled basically with a CSS translation protocol?\nYes. This is all Martin\u2019s work, so I\u2019m not taking any credit here. He had this idea, and when Martin has an idea, that\u2019s always a good sign; then he gets really obsessed with this. He\u2019s like \u201cSo we have this amazing venue, and it has these lights, and we can control these lights\u2026\u201d Because all these lights in all venues - they also have a protocol that they all speak. It\u2019s like MIDI for these music instruments, they speak DMX, which is a similar kind of protocol. And he\u2019s like \u201cWell, I don\u2019t like programming DMX.\u201d\n[00:36:13.26] He could control all these lights, rotations, color changes with Javascript, but he\u2019s like \u201cThere has to be a descriptive way of doing this\u201d, so he built his own CSS light editor. It\u2019s like a superset of CSS that he can punch into this editor, and then he changes the lights in the venue. That blew my mind. It\u2019s like, you type some CSS, and then all of a sudden that spotlight there is grey, or white, and then it turns blue; he\u2019s like, \u201cYeah, yeah, I can do that.\u201d\nThen he also built in transitions. [unintelligible 00:36:57.12] Of course, CSS is animations, so of course his light programming thingy also needs to have animations, so he\u2019s like, \u201cOkay, let me animate the rotation\u201d, and then all of a sudden all the lights in the venue were just spinning, and it\u2019s all done in this CSS editor that he built\u2026 It\u2019s like, \u201cWhat is going on?!\u201d I was so blown away when he did that. I\u2019m not sure if that\u2019s open source.\nWe should get him to open-source it.\nOne more note\u2026 He also had a second iteration of that, and that was he built like a 3D model of the actual venue, and then he could \u2013 sorry, Martin, if it\u2019s wrong, but there\u2019s something-something, he built a 3D model, and then he could trigger CSS classes on spotlights, and that would turn them on and off as well. The way this was done was also his own object model that had classes built in, and then depending if you add or remove classes, it would change the light in the venue.\nWe also gave a talk at JSConf - not the last one, but the one before - where we kind of presented how we did it, and I think one of the best parts was definitely Martin describing his process and what he built. It\u2019s definitely worth a look; it\u2019s on YouTube, I\u2019ll put it in the show notes. He blew everybody\u2019s mind, because when he shows his 3D model there \u2013 because he was basically just saying \u201cYou know, I couldn\u2019t practice/rehearse at the venue because the venue was closed. I could only rehearse on the day, a few hours before it starts, so I just created a 3D model/thing for my CSS lights\u2026\u201d So he did that with (I don\u2019t know) some library. He used a bunch of libraries to put together\u2013\nThree.js yeah.\nThree.js, exactly. Because he also has a background in 3D stuff, I think, so he did that and he showed that, and everybody was like, \u201cWow\u2026\u201d Much applause. So cool.\nI don\u2019t know about you, Suz, but all this makes me feel kind of like a worthless excuse for a developer over here\u2026 [laughter] Like, \u201cMan, I\u2019m a non-contributing zero. This stuff is amazing! What have I ever done\u2026?\u201d\n[laughs] There were just so many pieces that came together, and on top of that it\u2019s all Javascript and open web technologies. It\u2019s so many combinations of wonderful things that even just hearing you talk about it without actually being there - you can imagine all the different pieces coming together. It\u2019s incredible.\nSo we mentioned the visuals - amazing technical feats pulling this all together. Suz, I think we know why we said it actually sounds like legit music - because we have legitimate musicians putting this thing together. You heard a little bit of the track; if you haven\u2019t watched the YouTube video, you have to see it in action. We\u2019ll put that in the show notes, as well.\nGuys, I wanna go big-picture for a minute and talk about maybe an emerging trend of programming-focused or based software development music, and if that\u2019s something that can actually become a sustainable \u2013 not a genre, because we know that you mix genres, but a growing trend. I was just reading through some of the YouTube comments on this video as we chat, and people are legitimately excited about these songs. Somebody\u2019s saying \u201cI need this on my Spotify\u201d, somebody [unintelligible 00:42:32.04] Lots of comments alerting this music is wonderful; of course, all the nerds come out, and we do our console logs in our alerts, but\u2026 [laughter] Genuine praise, genuine enjoyment\u2026 I know that when this particular track first came out, it made me laugh, but then after a while I just put it on loop and put it in the background while I was programming.\nI\u2019m curious what your guys\u2019 thoughts are \u2013 I know you\u2019ve done these three performances; Nested Loops seems to kind of exist around and for JSConf, but is this something that could potentially become its own mini-movement? Or maybe it is and I just don\u2019t know about it.\nGood question. I\u2019m not sure. I only know of us and JS Live Network, which they also really \u2013 their contribution last year for JSConf was also really amazing. They\u2019re also combining visuals with music, but they just have way more gadgets than we do, everything is kind of driven by Javascript\u2026 And I\u2019m not really aware of any other program or bands. Have you seen any more around, or\u2026?\nWell, in the pre-party Jan mentioned that there\u2019s multiple Javascript bands, so I was interested to hear about what that means.\nYeah, I don\u2019t think Kahlil remembers my other Javascript bands\u2026\nOh, the Semi-Colons!\nThe Semi-Colons, oh my god!\nThe sibling conference of JSConf was Reject.JS, and the host band was called The Rejects, so that was another one. These two bands were literally created for these \u2013 oh my god, yeah, The Semi-Colons\u2026 I completely forgot the name of my own band. Yeah, The Rejects was the song name and not the name of the band. Oh, my god\u2026 Thanks, David in Slack.\nSo straight us out\u2026 What was the name of the band and what\u2019s the name of the son?\nThe name of the band is The Semi-Colons, and the name of the song was called \u201cWe are the rejects.\u201d\nBut these are catered towards these two conferences, but I happen to be the organizer of the Web Audio Conference, and in the Web Audio\u2019s scene there are many people that are actually live-performing music with web technology. They don\u2019t necessarily refer to Javascript in the lyrics or anything, it\u2019s like legit musicians. There\u2019s some people \u2013 there\u2019s Matt Mckegg, with an awesome\u2026 It\u2019s called Loop Drop. It\u2019s an Electron-based music production environment, and he has been performing at festivals with that, with this Electron app. But he is also struggling with that, because Javascript and Electron - they have all these quirks where they might just crash. The browser is not yet ready for like a live set of 1.5 hours of heavy music performance.\nBut there are definitely people out there, people that do live-coding environments, and that is pretty cool. I think Javascript is ready for primetime in a sense, but I haven\u2019t seen major acts using it yet.\n[00:46:11.20] When you look at these things, I guess maybe from a business level perspective, or maybe analytical, you look at communities growing or shrinking, and in terms of your potential listener base as a Javascript-focused band, or Javascript-based band, or whatever it is, it\u2019s something that is growing leaps and bounds. The programmer community at large is growing leaps and bounds, and then Javascript inside that. Only Python is growing at a faster rate of adoption than Javascript right now, and I think that\u2019s mostly due to a lot of the machine learning tooling around Python; other reasons, of course, but I think that\u2019s a major factor.\nIt\u2019s a community that\u2019s getting bigger and bigger, and so you have people that are more and more interested, where you could make music that not just reaches them in a musical sense, but also intellectually tickles their Javascript or programmer/nerd things that you\u2019re already doing. I think there\u2019s some potential there.\nOh, I see. Now I see where you\u2019re getting at, yeah.\n[laughs] Yeah, I\u2019m sure that there would be potential there. What interferes with it is that everybody, of course, has their own musical taste. If that music is not your thing, if that specific flavor of music is not your thing, then it\u2019s not gonna \u2013 so you can only reach a subset of those people\u2026\n\u2026but Jan, it might be interesting. If one could do it on a regular basis \u2013 I think in order to gain an audience that is gonna be loyal or that really sticks with you, you need to have a lot of releases throughout the year. That\u2019s kind of how musicians nowadays do it, I think, especially up and coming musicians. So you would have to write a track every month, or something like that, and then keep pushing it out and really hustle. But it could be, definitely.\nNerd audiences are, I think, a really cool target audience. I remember there was this one musician - I\u2019m sorry, I have totally no idea what his name was - that was pretty big on Twitter, especially amongst nerds, because his lyrics are just very funny, about dinosaurs, or comic figures, and stuff like that.\nI know who you\u2019re talking about and I can\u2019t think of his name right now either. I was about to say \u201cThis is his name!\u201d and it just [unintelligible 00:48:44.25] my tongue.\nSee, you know him, too!\nYeah. He\u2019s so good\u2026 He\u2019s so good he\u2019s anonymous. [laughter]\nBut I honestly think that there are enough topics only in Javascript land that can be like a muse. If you look at only things in React land right now\u2026 Whenever there is like a big announcement from the React team, you can make a song out of that. [laughter]\nWe could make a Nested Loops song just with two talks about that.\nReally, this is like a perfect setup.\nI think you\u2019re right, and I think especially if you focus on the lyrics\u2026 Kahlil, maybe more in your category of like rapping. I think if you had \u2013 and I\u2019ve joked around with Adam about this, because I\u2019m a terrible rapper, but I joke about being a programmer rapper\u2026 I come up with ridiculous things that aren\u2019t good. But if you\u2019re actually skilled at such things and you can apply that into a space where there\u2019s really nobody creating musical culture for us - to us and for us, and by us, so to speak - there\u2019s just tons of stuff that you could do in the rap game around these things, which I think would resonate with a lot of people. Or maybe that\u2019s easier than coming up with brand new music all the time; just a little rap, maybe even just sample the music and come up with lyrics.\nJump on some beats. You can get some instrumentals from iTunes, or whatever, and then just jump on that. But of course, writing those lyrics is definitely some effort. [laughter]\n[00:50:20.16] Oh, of course. I\u2019m not looking for a get-rich-quick plan here. [laughter] I just feel like we\u2019re coming to a point where the critical mass \u2013 I mean, Robert Tables in our chat has been talking about \u201cHow do you even keep up with the Javascript community, let alone the technology?\u201d The technologies are far-reaching and fast-moving, but the community is everywhere.\nSuz, you\u2019re out there in the community all the time, and you can\u2019t be on the podcast because you\u2019re always at a conference, so there\u2019s just so much going on that I feel like we\u2019re a growing group.\nYeah. I now know what we actually need\u2026 Every time the TC39 comes together and meets, we need to have some kind of rap song musical summary of exactly what went down; so if someone could take the minutes of the meeting and actually turn that into a song, we could be all caught up in like 3.5 minutes. [laughter]\nI think we\u2019re onto something here. So this Loop Drop tool is cool; I got that in the show notes as well, loopjs.com. Suz and I are not in this space creatively very much, so we were wondering if you guys have knowledge of, or can point people towards tooling in the web technologies or in the Javascript space, beyond the ones you\u2019ve mentioned already, that people can use to create either generative music, or this kind of thing\u2026 What kind of tools are out there, or what\u2019s missing in the community where [unintelligible 00:51:40.10] make music?\nI think for a lot of people it\u2019s missing the basics of what music making means. I include myself in that group as well, because I don\u2019t have a musical background per se, but\u2026 There are some amazing web-based tools to learn how to make music and then also to get into making that yourself. Ableton, who is the producer of one of the biggest music production softwares in the world, and they have this website called learningmusic.ableton.com; it\u2019s a web audio app that pretty much teaches you everything you need to know to get started in making music, and how music fundamentally works, how the timing works, what the different genres are, and how to make a nice drum line, and all these things.\nThen you can go one step further and look into \u201cOkay, the Web Audio API is out there\u2026 How does it work?\u201d The Web Audio School is a great tool. It\u2019s written by Matt Mckegg, and it\u2019s an amazing tutorial that shows you how to get into audio programming\u2026 Because it\u2019s a very different field from our general web development, and I think that\u2019s the first hurdle for most people.\nDo you know also if there are any communities that people could try and get in touch with? Whether there\u2019s almost like a demo scene for live music production, or anything like that? Because this whole thing just reminds me of the [unintelligible 00:53:30.00] but it\u2019s music\u2026 But I really don\u2019t know anything about this stuff\n[00:53:35.23] Yeah, definitely. There\u2019s the Web Audio Slack. I think it\u2019s web-audio-slacking.herokuapp.com. The implementers of the Web Audio API do hang out there as well. If you just wanna get into working with Web Audio API, you can ask all your questions there, and you might get the [unintelligible 00:53:57.15] from the Chrome team, answering your very beginner questions. They\u2019re happy to do that there. I think that\u2019s the perfect place. There are a lot of people there that work on production websites that use Web Audio, or our performance.\nAwesome stuff, guys. Thanks so much. All links will be in the show notes. Any final, parting thoughts? Suz, any more questions for you? I\u2019d love to know what the future of Nested Loops is, that would be my last question, but beyond that, any other final words for us and for our audience?\nYeah, I really wanna know if you are coming back for JSConf EU next year, because I saw that the CFP was open.\nThere are conversations going on\u2026 That\u2019s all I can say for now.\n[laughs] You heard it first on JS Party, \u201cThere are conversations.\u201d\n\u201cThere are conversations\u2026\u201d [laughter] Well, let me also add, if you guys ever want to debut a new track, you have JS Party as a launchpad for your new music. If you\u2019d like to debut any time, come back, play some brand new music on JS Party. We would absolutely love that.\nWell, maybe we should actually use snippets from podcast episodes in that case\u2026\nUuuh\u2026 Now you\u2019re talking our language. [laughter] We\u2019ve got some great stuff for you.\nWell, if you can do some prefiltering for us, that would be very helpful\u2026 Maybe we can do something.\nOh yeah, that would be great.\nSo do some samples, and that way you don\u2019t have to watch hours of video - yeah, that makes sense\u2026 Or podcasts. [laughter]\nYeah, listen to hundreds of years of podcasts.\nWe have some very funny outtakes that we\u2019ve already filtered out, so we might actually be a bit ahead.\nAlright, so\u2026 Coming to headphones near you, potentially; \u201cthere\u2019s conversations\u201d about a potential JS Party Nested Loops collaboration. Stay tuned for that\u2026 That\u2019s super-exciting. Also, if you enjoyed this episode, go back and listened to the conversation I had with Feross a couple weeks back, all about BitMidi, which is another really cool music-focused, web-based Javascript application, and all the nitty-gritty on that. That was a fun one, so go back and listen to that.\nThat\u2019s our show for today. Thanks so much for the Nested Loops gang being here, and hey, you never know, you might be hearing them again soon. We\u2019ll see you all next week!",

        "title": "CRB | The Perversity of Diversity, by Thomas Sowell",
        "raw_content": "The Perversity of Diversity\nA review of Mismatch: How Affirmative Action Hurts Students It's Intended to Help, and Why Universities Won't Admit It, by Richard Sander and Stuart Taylor, Jr.\nnyone who follows public policy issues can easily think of policies that help one group at the expense of some other group. What is rarer, however, is a policy that on net balance harms all groups concerned, even if in very different ways. Affirmative action policies in the academic world can claim that rare distinction.\nMany among the liberal intelligentsia dismiss criticisms of affirmative action as coming from \"angry white males,\" who are presumably just upset at losing places in colleges or elsewhere to either women or minorities. But if that was the real reason, the question then is why white males are not angry at Asian Americans, who have displaced more white males at many elite academic institutions than have blacks or Hispanics. But, as an old song once said, \"It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it.\" The way Asian Americans have done it is by outperforming others, and most of us still recognize that as legitimate, even in these excessively egalitarian times.\nWe can probably all agree that affirmative action has an adverse effect on the admissions prospects of white males. What may seem more controversial is the proposition that affirmative action imposes serious handicaps on black and other minority students. There have been critics (including me) who have been saying that for some time. However, the devastating new book Mismatch, by Richard H. Sander and Stuart Taylor, Jr., has so much overwhelming evidence on the harm done to students who are black, Hispanic, or from other \"under-represented\" minorities, that it will be hard for anyone with pretensions of honesty to be able to deny that painful fact.\nDoes this mean that academics and others will finally have a fact-based debate over this contentious issue? Not necessarily. Indeed, not likely. Another highly successful strategy used by academic administrators and other defenders of racial preferences in higher education has been to simply ignore any and all evidence that goes against their policies or the assumptions behind those policies. Where academics or foundations control data sources, they often simply refuse to release the data to those with differing views. However, this latter strategy will now be like locking the barn door after the horses are gone. Sander and Taylor already have a decisive quantity and quality of hard data in their book.\nThe book is titled Mismatch because the fundamental problem created for black and other minority students admitted to elite colleges and postgraduate programs under affirmative action preferences is not that those students are \"unqualified\" to be in colleges and universities, but that they are far too often mismatched with the particular colleges and universities that admit them under standards lowered to get a desired racial body count, whether expressed as \"goals\" or \"quotas.\"\nAs Sander and Taylor point out, the late Professor Clyde Summers of the Yale Law School was the first person to explain, back in 1968, why preferential admissions policies for minorities were so often damaging to those minority students' education. Summers, incidentally, had years earlier published a landmark article that criticized labor unions' discrimination against blacks, so he could hardly be dismissed as an \"angry white male\" opposed to minorities' advancement. Professor Summers explained that admitting black students to top-tier institutions, when they had academic qualifications that were at a level that fit second-tier institutions, meant that second-tier institutions now had a reduced pool of suitable black applicants and would have to dip into the pool of black students whose qualifications fit the third tier\u2014and so on down the line.\nThe net result would be a systematic mismatching of black students with institutions up and down the ranks of academic institutions. This in turn would mean unnecessary academic failures among black students who were qualified to be successes, though not at the particular institutions where they were admitted under lowered standards for the sake of demographic representation.\nBy contrast with Professor Summers's analysis, the prevailing theory of affirmative action is that admitting black and other minority students to institutions they might otherwise not qualify for is giving them a much-needed avenue to upward mobility. But what are the facts?\nWhat a wide variety of empirical evidence in Mismatch shows is that, when black and other minority students are admitted to colleges and universities where the other students have substantially stronger academic backgrounds, the minority students fail to graduate as often as other students and\u2014a crucial fact\u2014they graduate less often than other black students with the same level of academic credentials as themselves, but who attend other academic institutions where their preparation is more similar to that of the other students at those institutions. What Clyde Summers predicted back in 1968 is repeatedly confirmed by data from academic institutions across the country today.\nThe reason is not hard to understand. As Sander and Taylor point out, professors tend to pitch their courses to the level of the students they have. If the black students at an elite college score at the 75th percentile on tests used nationwide, most would undoubtedly do very well at the average American college, or at a somewhat above-average American college. But, if they are admitted to a top college where the other students score at the 99th percentile, the courses they take are likely to move at a pace that is too fast for their reading speed or their mathematical skills. These minority students may be perfectly capable of mastering the same material in these courses, if they were at an institution where the courses moved at a pace, and on a level of complexity, geared to students with a similar level of academic preparation as themselves.\nAs Sander and Taylor put it, \"A freshman physics class at Dartmouth would presume that students were comfortable with calculus and fairly complex, realistic models of natural phenomenon, a freshman class at Fisk\u2014or at the University of Tennessee\u2014would probably start with algebraic approaches to more classical concepts.\" Certainly when I taught introductory economics to engineering students at Cornell University, and came to the concept of \"marginal revenue,\" I would simply say that marginal revenue was the first derivative of total revenue, and keep moving, knowing that all the engineering students know calculus and would understand what that meant. But, when introducing \"marginal revenue\" in an introductory economics course at Howard University, I prepared numerical examples that would get across the same concept.\nWhat is the practical consequence of all this?\nThe empirical data presented in Mismatch shows that black students admitted to colleges and universities where the other students have higher academic qualifications do not graduate as often, graduate with much lower grades, and, when they start out trying to major in difficult subjects like mathematics, the natural sciences, engineering, or economics, they end up majoring in much easier subjects with much less of a payoff in terms of their careers in later life. Moreover, black students with very similar academic qualifications who attend predominantly black colleges succeed in graduating with degrees in the natural sciences, mathematics, engineering, and economics far more often. Nor is this simply a matter of their being granted college degrees while having less knowledge of their subjects. Predominantly black colleges are 17 of the top 21 colleges whose black graduates go on to receive Ph.D.s in scientific, mathematical, and technical fields.\nIt is not that black students who attend predominantly white colleges avoid majoring in science, mathematics, or engineering. Initially they choose such majors more often than white students at the same institutions. It is just that black students subsequently abandon these fields in large numbers in institutions where they are academically mismatched. As a professor at one of the black colleges put it, the predominantly white schools are \"wasting\" well-qualified black students who \"wind up majoring in sociology or recreation or get wiped out altogether.\"\nIn the field of law, there is another external criterion for the success or failure of the education of students admitted under lower academic standards. That is the ability to pass the bar examination. Black students admitted to George Mason University Law School with lower academic qualifications than the other students there had \"roughly a 30 percent chance\" of graduating and passing the bar exam on the first attempt, according to Sander and Taylor. But \"students at the historically black Howard University Law School, only a few miles away, had academic indices very similar to blacks at GMU Law but had a graduation-and-first-time-bar-passage rate of about 57 percent, nearly twice as high.\"\nIn short, black and other minority students seem to learn better at institutions where the other students are similar in academic qualifications. The same conclusion is implied in data on what happened after affirmative action in admissions was outlawed in the University of California system. When racial preferences were banned by the voters in California, there were dire predictions that this would mean the virtual disappearance of black and Hispanic students from the University of California system. What in fact happened was a 2% decline in their enrollment in the University of California system as a whole, but an increase in the number of black and Hispanic students graduating, including an increase of 55% in the number graduating in four years and an increase of 63% in the number graduating in four years with a grade point average of 3.5 or higher.\nInstead of the predicted drastic decline in enrollment in the system as a whole, there was a drastic redistribution of black and Hispanic students within the University of California system. Their enrollment dropped at the two most elite campuses, Berkeley and UCLA\u2014by 42% at the former and 33% at the latter. But their enrollment rose by 22% at the Irvine campus, 18% at the Santa Cruz campus, and 65% at the University of California at Riverside. After this redistribution, the number of black and Hispanic students who graduated with degrees in science, mathematics, and engineering \"rose by nearly 50 percent,\" according to Sander and Taylor. The number of doctorates earned by black and Hispanic students in the system rose by about 20%.\nIn short, the problems created by the mismatching brought on by affirmative action gave way to significant improvements in the academic performances of black and Hispanic students in the University of California system after those preferences were banned. In purely intellectual terms, these results might seem to vindicate what had been long said by critics of race preferences in college admission, and lead to some rethinking on the subject. But no such thing happened. On the contrary, new and more clever ways of evading the ban on affirmative action were created, even by academic administrators who privately admitted that affirmative action had the bad effects that were found\u2014and this not just in California but in the academic world more generally. \"Diversity\" had become a sacred cause, and sacred causes are seldom defeated by statistics.\nSander and Taylor have written an outstanding book that deserves to be read and pondered in many places for many years. They have performed a major service for all those who have an open mind on affirmative action, however modest the number of such people may be\u2014and a still more important service for those who think that black students on campus should be there to advance their own education and lives, not to serve in a role much like that of movie extras, whose presence enhances the scene for others.\nThe authors of Mismatch draw policy conclusions from their work. The most obvious conclusion might seem to be that group preferences in academic admissions should be ended. But Professor Sander and Mr. Taylor see that as a virtually impossible thing to achieve, and indeed see a beneficial role for \"a race-neutral system of smaller, socioeconomic preferences\" focused on increasing the enrollment of people from lower income backgrounds, whether such people are black or white or whatever. They apparently see a role for thoughtful statesmanship toward that end by the Supreme Court, which is now considering academic affirmative action issues yet again, after having tried judicial statesmanship before, in earlier decades.\nI could not disagree more with the distinguished authors of this outstanding study. It was precisely by trying to be judicious social engineers and statesmanlike legislators that Supreme Court Justices have left affirmative action a bleeding sore on the body politic that will not heal, but which only produced polarizing bitterness on all sides. The time is long overdue for them to carry out their judicial function and recognize that the 14th Amendment means what it plainly says about \"equal protection of the laws.\"\nNor is it at all obvious why college and university administrators should be entrusted with the God-like role of fine-tuning society. Neither their past record of counterproductive results for people they claimed to be helping nor their many disingenuous tactics in promoting failed policies that they seem hell-bent to continue, inspire any such confidence. It seems plain, after all these years, that they are not going to stop unless they get stopped.\nAn unequivocal legal ban on the use of race in college admissions seems to me a necessary, though not a sufficient, step toward putting an end to this educationally and socially pernicious practice. To say that race can be just \"one factor\" in college admissions decisions is to made a judicious compromise in rhetoric while keeping the floodgates wide open in reality. From my own research for my book Affirmative Action Around the World (2004), I know that attempted restrictions on group preferences in other countries that leave the decision-makers wiggle room to factor in subjective considerations virtually guarantee that those subjective considerations will be used to offset objective differences in qualifications, in order to end up with the group numbers desired.\nIf and when there is an outright ban on using race in college and university admissions decisions, the next step should be a return to the once common practice of forbidding the submission of photographs or other things that permit racial identification. Some examination papers, as well as articles submitted to academic journals, are already being judged without any identifying information, in order to get unbiased decisions. There is no reason why the same practice cannot be followed with applications for college or university admissions. Affirmative action has already turned too many minority students with the potential for success into induced failures, because they were mismatched, quite aside from the racial polarization and academic corruption spawned by these programs.\nCheer up, conservatives. Election night was gruesome, but it produced neither a landslide for President Obama nor a wipeout of the GOP.

REUTERS/Steve Parsons/POOL\nSara Thornton, head of the National Police Chiefs' Council since 2015, will take up the role later this year\nLONDON, Feb 3 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - One of Britain's most senior police officers is set to be appointed the country's new anti-slavery chief almost nine months after the inaugural commissioner resigned citing government interference, the Times newspaper said on Sunday.\nSara Thornton, head of the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) since 2015, will take up the role later this year, the British newspaper reported.\nBritain's Home Office (interior ministry) said it could not confirm the appointment, and that a candidate would be \"announced shortly\". Thornton could not be reached for comment.\nA source with knowledge of the situation told the Thomson Reuters Foundation on Sunday that Thornton's name had been \"heard on the grapevine\" but no appointment has been confirmed.\nKevin Hyland was appointed as the inaugural independent anti-slavery commissioner in 2014 as part of Britain's landmark Modern Slavery Act, but he resigned last May and left the post in August, saying he had been frustrated by government meddling.\nHyland was widely hailed for helping to champion the world-first law and pushing the United Nations to adopt a target to end slavery by 2030 among a set of global goals agreed in 2015.\nBritain's push to be the world leader in tackling slavery has been \"thwarted\" by the delay in replacing Hyland, which has hindered policy advances and scrutiny of the government, sources told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in December.\nThe Home Office has advertised twice for the role - a three-year contract with a salary of up to 140,000 pounds ($178,000).\nBritain was in December urged by lawmakers to scrap its search for a new anti-slavery chief and address concerns about the independence of the role before readvertising.\nIn a government-ordered review of the law, three politicians said they were worried by reports that Hyland had not been free to criticise Britain's anti-slavery efforts and the job advert for his successor raised doubts about the role's independence.\nBritain announced in July it would review its 2015 law amid criticism that it is not being used fully to jail traffickers, drive big businesses to stop forced labour, or support victims.\nCampaigners said the new anti-slavery chief should ensure Britain's approach to tackling modern slavery and human trafficking goes far beyond just relying on law enforcement.\n\"Finding victims should be the last step. Stopping people becoming them in the first place should be the core part of any sensible anti-slavery plan,\" said Emily Kenway, a senior advisor for the charity Focus on Labour Exploitation (FLEX).\n\"This means reducing outsourcing, ensuring migrant workers have access to public money, introducing joint liability which makes the top of a supply chain responsible for the abuse lower down,\" said Kenway, formerly a staffer with Hyland's office.\nBritain is home to at least 136,000 modern slaves, according to the Global Slavery Index by rights group Walk Free Foundation - a figure 10 times higher than a government estimate from 2013.

In the middle of this confrontation is a warrior named Kaim Argonar. He has tons of moves and is able to block almost all incoming attacks, and is the central character in the story. Unfortunately for both sides, a meteor inexplicably drops on top of them, clearing the battlefield of life. Well, except for one Kaim Argonar. He is Immortal. and he is not alone.\nOk enough of the highlander rip but if you\u2019re a Highlander fan, many of the same themes such as the pain and joys of being an immortal will be prominently displayed in Kaim\u2019s Journey.\nLost Odyssey is a beautiful game. Sure, it has some rough spots but overall it looks very pretty with detailed faces and superb surroundings. It also has an interesting combat system that reminds me of the one in Shadow Hearts. But the real star/s for me are Kaim\u2019s Dreams or recollections of the past. These are triggered by certain events or action within the game and are just fascinating to read because it allows you to connect splendidly with Kaim\u2019s character.\nImagine being able to live for hundreds or thousands of years\u2026 What pain, joy, anguish, happiness, grief, and other memories will you be able to hold on to. Which ones will you remember the most? Did you have kids? Wives? Family? Imagine yourself not growing old and see them wither right before your eyes. Fascinating stuff. This is what makes Lost Odyssey stand apart from the mass of Japanese RPG\u2019s.\nMore later once i get a few hours in\u2026..\nMicrosoft offers $44.6 Billion for Yahoo!",

        "raw_content": "The Commission heard this matter on October 31, 2011, at the City of Littleton Council Chambers, 2255 West Berry Avenue, Littleton, Colorado 80120 upon application for an order to establish one approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit within Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M., Weld County, and authorize one horizontal well within the unit for development and production of oil, gas, and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation.\n5. On February 19, 1992, the Commission issued Order No. 407-87 (amended August 20, 1993), which among other things, established 80-acre drilling and spacing units for the production of oil and/or gas from the Codell and Niobrara Formations underlying certain lands, including Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M., with the permitted well locations in accordance with the provisions of Order No. 407-1. On December 19, 1983, the Commission issued Order No. 407-1 (amended on March 29, 2000 in accordance with Order No. 407-17, entered November 18, 1985), which among other things, established 80-acre drilling and spacing units for the production of oil and/or gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Codell Formation underlying certain lands, including the above-described lands, with the drilling and spacing unit to be designated by the operator drilling the first well in the quarter section, (or the Director, if the operator fails to designate). The permitted well shall be located in the center of either 40-acre tract within the drilling and spacing unit with a tolerance of 200 feet in any direction. The operator shall have the option to drill an additional well on the undrilled 40-acre tract in each 80-acre drilling and spacing unit.\n6. On April 27, 1998, the Commission adopted Rule 318A., which, among other things, allowed certain drilling locations to be utilized to drill or twin a well, deepen a well or recomplete a well and to commingle any or all of the Cretaceous Age Formations from the base of the Dakota Formation to the surface. Pursuant to Rule 318A.j., Rule 318A. supersedes all prior Commission drilling and spacing orders affecting well location and density requirements of Greater Wattenberg Area wells. Rule 318A.d. provides that an operator may allocate production to any drilling and spacing unit with respect to a particular Cretaceous Age Formation consistent with the provisions of Rule 318A. Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M. is subject to Rule 318A., for the production of oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation.\n7. On May 23, 2011, the Commission issued Order No. 407-403, which among other things, established an approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit and approved one horizontal well within the unit for the production of oil and/or gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation underlying certain lands, which included the W\u00bd SW\u00bc, Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M.\n8. On May 23, 2011, the Commission issued Order No. 407-404, which among other things, established an approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit and approved one horizontal well within the unit for the production of oil and/or gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation underlying certain lands, which included the N\u00bd N\u00bd, Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M.\n9. On May 23, 2011, the Commission issued Order No. 407-415, which among other things, established an approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit and approved one horizontal well within the unit for the production of oil and/or gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation underlying certain lands, which included the S\u00bd N\u00bd, Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M.\n10. On August 31, 2011, Noble, by its attorneys, filed with the Commission a verified application (\u201cApplication\u201d) for an order to: 1) establish an approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit for the below-listed lands (\u201cApplication Lands\u201d); and 2) approve one horizontal well within the unit to accommodate the planned Sandy Hills PC C17-67HN Well, for the production of oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation, with the treated interval of the wellbore to be located no closer than 460 feet from the boundary of the unit, without exception being granted by the Director of the Commission:\nNoble states that it is not changing the established 80-acre drilling and spacing units for any existing vertical Niobrara Formation wells. Noble further states that it is not changing the established distribution of proceeds for any existing vertical Niobrara Formation wells subject to Order No. 407-87. Noble will allocate and distribute proceeds from the Well on a 320-acre basis.\n11. On October 18, 2011, Noble, by its attorney, filed with the Commission a written request to approve the Application based on the merits of the verified Application and the supporting exhibits. Sworn written testimony and exhibits were submitted in support of the Application.\n12. Land testimony and exhibits submitted in support of the Application by Julie Jenkins, Land Manager for Noble, showed: 1) Noble is a leaseholder of the Application Lands; 2) Noble has entered into a surface use agreement with the surface owner; and 3) Noble is not changing the established 80-acre drilling and spacing units for any existing vertical Niobrara Formation wells.\n13. Geology testimony and exhibits submitted in support of the Application by Ron Pritchett, Senior Geologist for Noble, showed: 1) the Niobrara Formation has a regional dip of less than \u00bd degree to the west in the application area; 2) total thickness ranges from approximately 272 to 298 feet under the Application Lands; 3) the proposed well is estimated to encounter a total Niobrara thickness greater than 275 feet through most of the wellbore; and 4) the Niobrara Formation thins across a portion of the Application Lands.\n14. Engineering testimony and exhibits submitted in support of the Application by Ryan Sullivan, Operations Engineer for Noble, showed: 1) by targeting the Niobrara Formation horizontally, the planned wells will efficiently develop resources in the Niobrara;(2) horizontal wells in the area recover resources that would not otherwise be recovered; 3) correlative rights will be protected; and 4) the proposed well is economic.\n18. Based on the facts stated in the verified Application, having received no protests, and based on the Hearing Officer review of the Application under Rule 511., the Commission should enter an order to establish one approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit within Section 17, Township 4 North, Range 64 West, 6th P.M., Weld County, and authorize one horizontal well within the unit for development and production of oil, gas, and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation.\nNOW, THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED, that an approximate 320-acre wellbore spacing unit, is hereby established, for the below-listed lands, and one horizontal well within the unit is hereby approved, to accommodate the planned Sandy Hills PC C17-67HN Well, for the production of oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Niobrara Formation, with the treated interval of the wellbore to be located no closer than 460 feet from the boundary of the unit, without exception being granted by the Director of the Commission:\nIT IS FURTHER ORDERED, this Order shall not change of any established 80-acre drilling and spacing units or the established distribution of proceeds for any existing vertical Niobrara Formation wells. Noble shall allocate and distribute proceeds from the horizontal well on a 320-acre basis.",

        "raw_content": "Company Name: Frimark Keller & Associates\nAddress: 1920 Thoreau Dr N #114, Schaumburg, IL 60173\nCommercial Truck Financing In: Illinois, Schaumburg\nCompany Name: Geico Finance\nAddress: 670 S Roselle Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60193\nCompany Name: Tim Mackey \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent\nAddress: 2303 W Schaumburg Road, Schaumburg, IL 60194\nMany companies have to manage large vehicles like trucks for company functions and many other day-to-day operations. There are specific concerns and demands which can be significant if you\u2019re taking these automobiles into consideration. The first and the most important thing is commercial truck insurance. It is really essential for your own business and the process to get one is similar to any automobile insurance. Nonetheless, it can be a little complex as compared to other kinds of insurance. You can get your commercial truck insurance from any insurance company. You can also hire an agent if you believe you do not desire to finish all the processes on your own. Nonetheless, you should consider or take into account certain factors that are significant while trying to get insurance. Let us see the needed information and variables that will be crucial while applying for the necessary procedure.\nYou need to have specific technical information regarding the truck. Note down information like model number, mileage and year of production of the vehicle. Additionally take down the vehicle number and id. You must consider all these things before applying for the insurance. It is possible to locate these details in areas like the dash or near the windshield. The next thing that has to be contemplated is the companies that provide commercial insurance for vehicles. It\u2019s accurate you will find many insurance companies in the market. Nevertheless, you must keep in mind that all the insurance companies do not offer commercial insurance. Thus, this really is something which you will need to research about to see which companies offer this type of insurance before taking the next step.\nYou can find many online companies that also offer good rates and insurance policies. Nevertheless, you have to be mindful while opting for these kinds of insurance because it truly is more complex than the other kinds of vehicle insurance. You need to study the website of the business and read the terms and conditions very carefully. Occasionally you might not get all the info through the company web site and consequently, you are going to need to contact them in case you might have any query or need additional information. If you desire you can contact many companies and ask them for their quotes and coverages. You can then later determine which firm satisfies you the best and is more favorable for you. After you determine which company is the best it is possible to proceed with the application process. The sales broker of the business will guide you through the entire procedure. It\u2019s possible for you to inform the broker about your business background and what kind of coverage is necessary. The most important thing is budget. You will also need to keep your budget in mind before opting for any policy. Different coverages supply different kinds of coverage and have different rates and prices. You need to pick the best plan on your own. Therefore, this was some vital details about commercial truck insurance and a few of the factors that must be considered before selecting one.\nHarvey Adams \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent\nAim Auto Finance Services\nEimers Finance\nA to Z Finance, Income Tax and Financial Services",

The fund aims to achieve lasting change and improve lives for disadvantaged people.\nIn April 2017, the Scottish Government commissioned EKOS Ltd and Avril Blamey and Associates to undertake a research study exploring the co-production process and its results.\nFor this purpose they applied some of the key principles of Realist Evaluation but also other evaluation techniques working directly with 12 PCF funded projects.\nThe following two videos show some of the approaches that were used to assess the co-productive approaches in local communities:\nResearch confirmed that the implementation theory and the logic model of the PCF Programme worked. The findings showed that provided a person-focused approach is used, co-production really can work to great effect.\nPCF funding provided the space and time for community-based organisations to attend to the personal development needs of their communities and to work in close partnership with other partners.\nNot all approaches of how co-production can be evaluated were presented.

Tax legislation has brought, though, with some delay, a legal leverage to compensate for the net loss in salaries of these categories of employees, under certain conditions.\nThe provisions governing the exemption from corporate tax were introduced in the Romanian Tax Code in January 2017, but the implementation rules have not been issued yet, therefore it cannot be applied.\nFrom a corporate tax perspective, although a large proportion of taxpayers working in this field know the tax benefits, most of them are still in the process of analysing the eligibility, with no clear implementation phase, the study states. This is largely because the lack in consulting the R&D Expert Registry, as it is not functional, although the law provides that the employer, employee or tax authorities may request expert reports prepared by experts enrolled in the Register of experts in domains of research and development, for the validation in the classification of R&D activities.\nThe 10-year tax exemption facility cannot be applied, as there are no implementation rules and taxpayers have a justifiable fear that this measure can be categorized as State aid.\nEtichete: EY study, global competition, investments, research and development, tax incentives",

        "raw_content": "Magnetic bearings do not wear and have virtually no friction. The consequences of their usually unstable equilibrium of forces have to be corrected by feedback control loops. In general five such loops are required. In each control loop the difference between the displacement measured by a sensor and the desired displacement is converted into a control current through the coils of the magnetic circuit for generating the load-carrying capacity. With a suitable magnetic geometry it is possible to manage with a smaller number of control loops, but this has the disadvantage of reducing the load-carrying capacity and stiffness corresponding to the non-controlled degrees of freedom. This disadvantage can to some extent be overcome by including concentric grooves in the pole pieces. The load-carrying capacity can be calculated fairly easily from Maxwell's equations in vector notation, by expressing the force density at an enclosed surface in terms of the magnetic-flux-density vector. The ratio of the forces in the radial and axial directions of the magnetic bearings investigated, which had grooved pole pieces and one or three control loops, can be calculated from the same equation for the density of forces. The stability of two control methods, one using displacement feedback and the other velocity feedback, is demonstrated with the aid of Nyquist diagrams. The advantage of control with velocity feedback is that less heat is dissipated in the control coils. If a limiting speed is exceeded the magnetically supported rotor is dynamically unstable. This instability is comparable with the 'half-omega whirl' that can occur in hydrodynamic bearings.",

        "raw_content": "Righter: It\u2019s time for state government to get out of the pension business\nLegislation to stop pension costs from draining critical state taxpayer resources away from schools, universities, and important programs is being sponsored by State. Sen. Dale Righter. Righter\u2019s Senate Bill 1012 would require any new employee hired after July 1, 2018 receive a 401(k) style plan and not a defined-benefit plan with guaranteed annual increases. This includes state workers, teachers, university employees, judges, and members of the General Assembly.\n\u201cIt\u2019s no secret Illinois\u2019 pension costs are draining tax dollars from high-priority areas,\u201d Righter said. \u201cBut I don\u2019t think people realize just how bad it is. For example, pension costs in both higher education and K-12 education consume approximately 50 percent of all state spending in these areas. That\u2019s billions of dollars that can\u2019t be spent on bettering our classrooms, hiring more teachers and staff, funding important programs, reducing tuition costs to students, constructing new buildings, or reimbursing our education system on time. Taxpayers are being forced to subsidize a pension system that we simply cannot afford. Pension reform must be a top priority if we\u2019re serious about our future.\u201d\nRighter noted a handful of facts demonstrating this issue:\n\u00b7 Spending on pensions now consumes almost 25 percent of the state budget.\n\u00b7 From 1996 to 2017, taxpayers have put more than $75 billion toward pensions, $23.7 billion more than the 1994 Gov. Jim Edgar plan called for over the same period; yet, the pension funds are only 38 percent funded.\n\u00b7 Between 2003 and 2015, Illinois pension liabilities grew at 7.1 percent a year, contrasted to Indiana at five percent, Missouri at 4.5 percent, and Wisconsin at three percent.\n\u00b7 If Illinois\u2019 liabilities grew at Missouri\u2019s rate, our pension funds would overfunded by 25 percent.\n\u201cHere\u2019s what these number mean to our students,\u201d Righter said. \u201cFor 2015, the most recent year for which number are available, approximately 47 percent of all state taxpayer support for K-12 education went to pay for pensions. Even worse, for higher education, over 50% went to pensions. The state simply cannot offer to both pay for the current pension system and put the money we should into classrooms.\n\u201cIt\u2019s now a question of priorities; do we care more about preserving an unaffordable pension system than shifting those dollars into schools? The answer must be \u2018no,\u2019 and the system must change.\u201d\nRight now, employees in the State University Retirement System are the only employees who can choose a 401(k) style retirement package instead of a pension. About 21,000 employees choose that option.\nEighteen states have enacted some 401(k) style plan for state workers.\nPublic support for offering state employees the option to enroll in a 401(k) style plan is overwhelmingly high at 78 percent according to a recent poll done by Fabrizio, Lee & Associates.",

However, the role played by the spaces in which these activities unfold is seldom examined or considered to the same degree.\nThe manner in which the meanings of printed texts can be determined or modified by their reading or performance within differing architectural environments or spaces is of particular interest to me. I work towards artworks which convey the moment or moments when a text, a performance and an environment come together in ink, paint or clay to become a visual metaphor for the experience of reading a text or hearing a piece of music in a specific space.\nThe viewer will see that my artworks are created by the application or removal of overlapping transparent or opaque marks, surfaces or forms to create multilayered objects. In some, my strategies or improvisations suggest or identify meanings employing representations and relationships between objects and spaces. In others, disparate visual elements, layered and folded towards or away from the viewer, are employed. The tensions between these frontiers of meanings, I believe, have much in common with the manner in which printed texts in literature and music can be constructed, as well as read.",

        "raw_content": "GOP Senator blames John McCain\u2019s brain tumor for his no-vote on Obamacare repeal\nSpeaking on a radio program this Tuesday, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) said that he thinks John McCain\u2019s brain cancer coupled with the early morning hours may have contributed to his no-vote on the GOP\u2019s Obamacare repeal bill.\nMcCain voted no on the GOP\u2019s so-called \u201cskinny repeal\u201d because he disagreed with the process and the fact there was not an immediate replacement available. McCain\u2019s vote came just after he underwent surgery for a brain tumor. According to Johnson, the brain tumor may have had something to do with McCain going against his own party.\n\u201cWe did get a call from [Paul Ryan] and he assured us that skinny repeal was not going to pass the House, it would have to go to conference,\u201d Johnson said on AM560\u2019s Chicago\u2019s Morning Answer.\n\u201cAgain, I\u2019m not gonna speak for John McCain \u2014 he has a brain tumor right now \u2014 that vote occurred at 1:30 in the morning, some of that might have factored in,\u201d he added.\n\u201cReally?\u201d the radio host responded, seemingly taken aback by the remark. \u201cDo you really think that played a factor in his judgement call?\u201d\nAgain \u2014 I don\u2019t know exactly what \u2014 we really thought \u2014 and again I don\u2019t want speak for any senator,\u201d Johnson replied. \u201cI really thought John was going to vote yes to send that to conference at 10:30 at night. By about 1, 1:30, he voted no. So you have talk to John in terms what was on his mind.\u201d\nThis Wednesday, Johnson walked back his remark, saying, \u201cI\u2019m disappointed I didn\u2019t more eloquently express my sympathy for what Sen. McCain is going through. I have nothing but respect for him and the vote came at the end of a long day for everyone.\u201d\nJohnson\u2019s comments obviously didn\u2019t go over well in the McCain camp. A spokesperson for McCain said in a statement to CNN that Johnson\u2019s comments were \u201cbizarre and deeply unfortunate.\u201d\n\u201cIt is bizarre and deeply unfortunate that Senator Johnson would question the judgment of a colleague and friend. Senator McCain has been very open and clear about the reasons for his vote,\u201d McCain spokesperson Julie Tarallo said.\nRelated Items:Brain Tumor, John McCain, Obamacare Repeal, Paul Ryan, Ron Johnson\nRepublicans are willing to let America burn just so they can win\nPro-Trump author: John McCain was secretly executed by a military tribunal\nMeghan McCain rebukes Trump during father\u2019s eulogy: \u2018John McCain\u2019s America has no need to be made great again\u2019",

That deal focuses on training armed forces in the CAR.\nRussian President Vladimir Putin, right, shakes hands with Central African Republic President Faustin-Archange Touad\u00e9ra, in St. Petersburg, Russia, Wednesday, May 23, 2018.\nFor Eritrea, a deepening Russia alliance is the latest sign that decades of isolation may be ending, after a historic peace deal in July with neighboring Ethiopia. Since that agreement was signed, Eritrea\u2019s president, Isaias Afwerki, has met with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Somalia and South Sudan. He\u2019s also received delegations from Japan and Germany.\nEritrea's Delegation met with Russian Foreign Minister in Sochi today. Foreign Minister Lavarov stated that Russia-Eritrea bilateral ties are on track and set to flourish. He further stated that Russia is ready and working to expand trade and investment ties with Eritrea pic.twitter.com/WYsoT8TxlQ\n\u2014 Yemane G. Meskel (@hawelti) August 31, 2018\nFor Friday\u2019s meeting, Eritrea sent a delegation led by Foreign Minister Osman Saleh and Yemane Ghebreab, a senior presidential advisor, to Sochi, Russia, about 3,100 kilometers north of the Eritrean capital, Asmara. It\u2019s the latest get-together in the countries\u2019 25-year diplomatic relationship.\nEritrea\u2019s two ports, in Massawa and Assab, occupy strategic points along the Red Sea. Access to those ports is one benefit Ethiopia, a landlocked country, may reap from the peace deal.\nEthiopia and Eritrea began talks about the possibility of joint port development immediately following the deal. Such a cooperation could involve an existing facility or one that hasn\u2019t yet been conceived.\nMeanwhile, specifics on the purpose of the planned Russian logistics facility haven\u2019t been announced, but Russian and Eritrean leaders said the project would invigorate trade and business deals between the countries.\nNoteworthy that #Eritrea and Russia are beginning to talk about business deals. US and France should hurry to lift UN sanctions against Eritrea or they will lose out on good investment opportunities in the Red Sea nation.\n\u2014 Herman J. Cohen (@CohenOnAfrica) August 31, 2018\nIf Russia follows through on its plans for a logistics center, it won\u2019t be the first time a foreign player has set up shop in Eritrea.\nAssab is already home to a United Arab Emirates naval base, and Eritrea has allowed the U.A.E. to launch planes from Assab to fight Houthi rebels in Yemen. The port, at the mouth of the Red Sea, has a particularly strategic location less than 200 kilometers north of an array of international military bases in Djibouti.\nDecades earlier, in the 1940s, the United States established a military and logistics base at Kagnew Station in Asmara for reconnaissance missions in Word War II and the Cold War.\nLast year, U.S. Congressman Dana Rohrabacher called for renewed military ties with Eritrea in the fight against terrorism.\nSanctions next?\nEritrea faces U.N. sanctions against specific individuals, along with an arms embargo. It\u2019s hoping to use evolving diplomatic relationships to build momentum to remove the penalties.\nTalk of lifting the sanctions has accelerated since the peace deal with Ethiopia, but Eritrea\u2019s sanctions, in place since 2009, were imposed not because of that conflict, but rather separate concerns with other regional neighbors, including alleged support of al-Shabab in Somalia and a border dispute with Djibouti.\nThe al-Shabab issue is all but settled, with the United Nations deciding last November to disband the monitoring group that was tasked with investigating Eritrea\u2019s links to the armed extremist group, after years of inquiries produced no evidence of ties.\nFILE - Djibouti\u2019s ambassador to the United Nations, Mohamed Siad Doualeh.\nObjections over the border with Djibouti, however, have persisted, with Mohamed Siad Doualeh, Djibouti\u2019s ambassador to the United Nations, writing a forceful letter to the U.N. Security Council in late July outlining his country\u2019s grievances, which include occupation of Djiboutian land and prisoners of war who have not been accounted for or returned.\nLifting sanctions will require nine of 15 Security Council votes, including the support of all five permanent members \u2014 China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States.\nLavrov said Friday that sanctions against Eritrea should be lifted, according to TASS, a Russian state-owned news agency.\nIt\u2019s the first time a permanent member of the Security Council has addressed the sanctions issue since the peace deal with Ethiopia and, backed by aspirations for bilateral business deals, increases Eritrea\u2019s odds before a potential vote.\nThis Sunday, June 24, 2018 photo released by the Libyan Coast Guard shows migrants on a ship intercepted offshore near the town of Gohneima, east of the capital, Tripoli.\nThe U.N. refugee agency says people smugglers are taking greater risks to ferry their human cargo toward Europe as Libya\u2019s coast guard intercepts more and more boats carrying migrants, increasing the likelihood that those on board may die during the Mediterranean journeys.\nThat\u2019s one of the key findings from the latest UNHCR report about efforts to reach Europe. The report, released early Monday and titled \u201cDesperate Journeys,\u201d says that even though the number of crossings and deaths has plunged compared to recent years, the voyage is more deadly in percentage terms for those who venture across.\nThe report says 2,276 people died last year while trying to cross, or one death for every 42 arrivals.\nThis year, it\u2019s 1,095 deaths, or one out of every 18 arrivals. In June alone, the proportion hit one death for every seven arrivals.\nOn the Central Mediterranean route so far this year, there have been 10 separate incidents in which 50 or more people died \u2014 most after departing from Libya. Seven of those incidents have been since June alone, UNHCR said.\n\u201cThe reason the traffic has become more deadly is that the traffickers are taking more risk, because there is more surveillance exercised by the Libyan coast guards,\u201d said Vincent Cochetel, UNHCR\u2019s special envoy for the central Mediterranean. \u201cThey are trying to cut the costs: It costs them more to keep those people here longer in their warehouses, under captivity.\u201d\nLibyan authorities intercepted or rescued 18,400 people between August last year and July this year \u2014 a 38-percent increase from the same period of 2016 and 2017. Arrivals by sea from Libya to Europe plummeted 82 percent in those comparable periods, to 30,800 in the more recent one.\nUNHCR says a growing worry these days is deaths on land by people trying to get to Libya in the first place, or getting stuck in squalid, overcrowded detention centers: Many get returned there after failing to cross by sea to Europe.\n\u201cThe problems after disembarkation (is that) those people are sent back to detention centers, and many disappear,\u201d Cochetel said. \u201cMany are sold to militias, and to traffickers, and people employing them without paying them.\u201d\nHe said the drop in departures means that traffickers attempt to \u201cmonetize their investment, which means they have to exploit more people. That results in more cases of slavery, forced labor, prostitution of those people \u2014 because they (smugglers) want to make money on those people.\u201d\nWould-be workers and migrants are still pouring into Libya: Some are fleeing injustice, abuse or autocrats in their home countries further south in Africa. Others are looking for work in the oil industry or agriculture.\n\u201cI think you have more deaths on land,\u201d Cochetel said, referring to treks across the desert in Sudan, Algeria, Chad and Niger. \u201cMany people in Libya are reporting having seeing people dead in the desert on the way to Libya.\u201d\nIn Libya, instability continues even seven years after the fall of Moammar Gadhafi. French medical aid group Doctors Without Borders said Friday that fighting between rival militias in Tripoli, the capital, has endangered the lives of people trapped there and worsened humanitarian needs \u2014 especially at migrant detention centers.\nCochetel said Europe \u2014 where some countries have shown \u201cappalling\u201d squabbles about who would take in rescue ships carrying migrants \u2014 should look at the root causes of such journeys. European populations need to shun anti-migrant rhetoric and realize that figures are down sharply, and migrant flows are clearly manageable at current levels, he said.\n\u201cEurope has to show the lead, has to be exemplary in its response, but it\u2019s quite clear that it\u2019s already too late when the people are in Libya,\u201d he said. \u201cWe need to work downstream in country of first asylum, in country of origin, and that takes time.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The Democrat newspaper exlores the burning issues about the St. Kitts infamous electoral reforms:\n\"It is a commonly held view that democracy is about government for the people, by the people, and of the people. Such an ideal can only be achieved under a fair and transparent electoral system where there is one man, one vote. This is not the case in St. Kitts.\nThe results of the past three General Elections clearly indicate that our electoral system was cleverly manipulated by a Labour Party administration that wanted political power at all costs. Successive Reports by the Commonwealth Election Observers have made recommendations for the urgent reform of our electoral system but the government remains determined to either drag its feet or implement its own reforms.\nIt is very difficult to understand how the Labour government can preach democracy to its OECS neighbours without adhering to the fundamental principles for free and fair elections in its own backyard. For example, there exists Voter ID cards in most Caribbean countries but our government has refused to implement same in spite of its election promise to the electorate.\nThe Commonwealth has recommended a clear path for electoral reform but the government does not intend to follow it. Therefore, it is incumbent that OECS leaders recognize that the future of OECS and development depends to a large extent on the type of democratic governance structures that exist in each territory. The scant regard that is being paid to free and fair elections, accountability, transparency, and consensus, will ultimately undermine the gains that the OECS has made over the past 25 years.\"",

        "title": "The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong: Cornet Chop Suey",
        "raw_content": "We've reached the third song of Louis Armstrong's doozy of a session on February 26, 1926 and this one is a bona fide masterpiece. Louis started the date by jiving around with his wife Lil on the blues \"Georgia Grind,\" followed by creating the scat solo heard around the world on \"Heebie Jeebies.\" But to this point, the Armstrong horn hadn't had much to do.\nWell, that all changed with the third song written that day \"Cornet Chop Suey.\" This is a piece that has gotten writers breathless for decades and I don't know how much I can add. You want to know what made Louis Armstrong such a revolutionary musician in the 1920s? Well, it's all right here for you. He's in complete command of his horn, playing almost clarinet figures his trumpet (or cornet). The melody of \"Cornet Chop Suey,\" which he wrote, is very forward-thinking, a harbinger of snake-like melodies that would come later on in the bop era (Scott Robinson recorded a wonderful updated take on this tune in recent years, but I'd love to hear a bebop front line of trumpet and alto tear through this melody in unison...wouldn't sound out-of-date for a second).\nAnd then there's that stop-time solo, every note so perfectly placed and swinging, it's almost as if he wrote it out beforehand. But that could never happen, not in these righteous days of pure jazz, when, if you weren't improvising, well, you might as well be playing dance band music with Vincent Lopez. Right? Hello? Bueller?\nOf course, some of you might not know where I'm heading, but here's the straight dope: every note of \"Cornet Chop Suey\" was written down by Louis Armstrong and registered at the Library of Congress on JANUARY 24, 1924! Two years before he recorded it!\nDon't believe me? Well, I don't know how good this is going to work, but Lawrence Gushee wrote a defintive piece on Louis and improvisation that now appears in the book \"In the Course of Performance.\" That book is available on Google Books and you can scroll to page 300 to see a copy of it, right in Louis's hand. Here's a link.\nThis is not new news. The Library of Congress deposits were discovered in the 80s and have been writen about often since. In fact, when I was a member of the Master's program in Jazz History and Research at Rutgers, when we got to the subject of Armstrong in our Jazz Historiography class, our professor, Lewis Porter, passed this around to make the point that improvisation in the early days wasn't exactly a given. Soloists such as Louis and Kid Ory and King Oliver worked on their solos and once they had it down perfect, well, why in the hell mess with it? They were playing for dancers and making records for a quick buck, never thinking that students at universities would be analyzing their every eighth-note rest.\nLouis himself admitted as much. I don't have the quotes at hand (but--plug alert--they're in my book), but he talked about it with Richard Meryman in the 1960s, basically saying that everything he played was improvised at one point. But once he got it down, that's it, only change a few notes here and there, as long as they fit. He made sure to stress that's how it was in the old days, when everybody was supposedly improvising.\nSo here's \"Cornet Chop Suey\" two years before it got waxed, and it's all there: that incredible introduction, the melody and even every note of the stop-time chorus, marked by Louis as the \"Patter\" section. Now should this change anyone's opinion of \"Cornet Chop Suey\"? I should hope not. If so, if you really need every note of your jazz to be freshly minted from the tortured artist's brain, I feel sorry for you. Because me, I can admire what Louis put into composing this work and how he must have worked on it until it sounded like perfection. He probably didn't play it with King Oliver or Fletcher Henderson, but he probably did play it with Lil on piano at their Chicago home (her solo, while not an all-time classic, is one of her best ones, in my opinion).\nYesterday, I shared a Voice of America interview with Louis where he introduced and discussed \"Heebie Jeebies.\" From that same session, he did the same thing with \"Cornet Chop Suey.\" Here he is talking about it in 1956, downplaying it as just an unpublished compisition, recorded to make some quick money to go to the cabarets, with no thoughts about royalties or anything like that.\nSo with Louis serving as our disc-jockey, let's dig into the original \"Cornet Chop Suey\":\nRight off the bat, for some of you who may have enjoyed this song for 85 years, it might sound a little different. That's because I went with the version of the song in the key of F, as included in Phil Schaap's \"Complete Hot Fives and Sevens\" box set of about a decade ago. In his own notes, Schaap mentioned that authorities like Randy Sandke and James Charillo believed it to be in Eb. That's how Bobby Hackett played it and that's how John R. T. Davies mastered it in his JSP set.\nBut Louis wrote it down in F and the three subsequent versions he made of the song (which we'll get to in a bit), were each in F. That's good enough for me, but Norman Field really did the fieldwork in 2005 and published his results here. Check that out and you'll be listening to this version for good.\nAnd then there's the matter of \"cornet vs. trumpet.\" Everyone asks when did Louis switch and why? I can't give an exact date for the switch but it was around this time when Louis joined Erskine Tate's orchestra at the Vendome Theater. Thus, it's possible that \"Cornet Chop Suey\" was played on a trumpet! Here's Louis on the Voice of America again, right after playing \"Cornet Chop Suey,\" discussing the difference between the two instruments and why he made the switch:\nSo there you have it, again, straight from the man himself. One final note: many writers have said Louis titled it this way because exotic material was usually associated with Asia back then (see \"Oriental Strut\" from this same session). But I don't hear anyting exotic about \"Cornet Chop Suey\"; I think the title is a play on \"Clarinet Marmalade\" that works in Louis's love of Chinese food, something that started as a kid and continued until the end of his life.\nI've said very little about the playing on \"Cornet Chop Suey\" but I think the record speaks for itself. It's a masterpiece of the 20th century and was one of those recordings that pretty much said, \"Jazz...follow me!\" And it did, but Louis seems to have left \"Cornet Chop Suey\" behind. I have never seen any mentions of him playing it for the next 20 years of life but the next time he dug it out, stand back!\nThe occasion was the historic Town Hall concert in May 1947. This concert plays a crucial role in the beginning of the book and I center on \"Cornet Chop Suey\" as the start of things to come. Thus, I'm not going to run my mouth about the subject for long, other than to say, dig it:\nThat, to me, is just an amazing performance. It's Louis with just a rhythm section with Dick Cary on piano, Bob Haggart on bass and Big Sid Catlett on drums. This concert was supposed to throw Louis back into his \"old\" styles, all at a time when the dixieland revival had trad bands trying to recreate 1920s recordings with painstaking details.\nAnd here comes Louis and not for one second does he treat it like 1926. That rhythm section SWINGS, Catlett dropping subtle bombs and all sorts of accents. And perhaps because he hadn't played it in so long, Louis is completely free. He makes plenty of allusions to the original, but makes enough changes to keep it fresh, right up to that giant high note at the end, all 1947. Definitely a magical performance that helped usher in the later years of Louis's career.\nConcert programs from the early days of the All Stars listed \"Cornet Chop Suey\" as part of the repertoire but I have never come across a live performance of broadcast of it. Instead, it would be ten more years before Louis would take another crack at it and once again, he came through with flying colors. Like \"Heebie Jeebies\" and \"Georgia Grind,\" Louis revisited it on \"Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography.\"\nThe Hot Five and Hot Seven recreations were arranged by Bob Haggart, who transcribed every note of the original recordings. Louis was well rested and had plenty of time to rehearse during these sessions, so his playing is note-perfect, but perhaps not quite as free as the Town Hall version.\nRegardless, Haggart has some neat ideas, such as having George Barnes's guitar double Louis's acrobatic introduction. Louis sounds in command and the rest of the band is equally enthusiastic (though the Barrett Deems Drum Machine 2000 is too rigid; not his fault, Haggart wrote in the arrangements \"closed hi-hat\" on Deems's parts, keeping him locked down for some reason). Everyone gets a solo but of course, the spotlight is on Louis for the stop-time bit and he nails it, though he passes the ball to Trummy for a half-chorus, probably to give his 56-year-old chops a bit of a breather before the rideout, which has a new ending. Louis's crazy spiraling bit from the original is gone, replaced with the raw power of the 1950s Armstrong. Enough from me, give it a listen:\nAlas, my final version of \"Cornet Chop Suey\" is a bit of a letdown. It's from only two years later, but different circumstances lead to different recordings. This time around, Louis did \"Cornet Chop Suey\" with the Dukes of Dixieland. First off, the session was only weeks after Louis's heart attack in Spoleto, Italy, which didn't have any major effects on his trumpet playing, but did seem to affect his ability to execute fast runs on the horn, something that especially became noticable in the mid-1960s.\nAlso, this session was the Dukes seems like it was just thrown together, without any prepartion or rehearsal. In fact, they just did a lot of songs Louis was already performing live and/or had just recorded for Decca. Because of that, Decca stepped in and didn't allow the recordins to be released until theirs had been on the market for a certain period of time. Armstrong and the Dukes got their act together and recorded fresh material for a fantastic album in 1960 but this 1959 meeting flew under the radar for years.\nAfter recording so many familiar songs--\"Back O'Town Blues,\" \"Someday,\" \"Struttin' with Some Barbecue\"--and some different material with basic routines--\"Dippermouth Blues\" \"Riverside Blues,\" \"Bill Bailey\"--someone in the Dukes probably suggested \"Cornet Chop Suey.\" This was the kind of material the Dukes ate up (Dukes trumpeter Frank Assunto takes the melody in the first chorus) but Louis hadn't played it regularly for years and when he recorded it for the \"Autobiography,\" he had an arrangement in front of him.\nThus, judged solely on itself, this recording features some fine, powerhouse playing by the 1959 Armstrong. But you can hear his memory trying to conjure up those phrases and then you can feel the execution slowing down tremendously since the 1957 project. Like an aging fastball pitcher, Louis still has the knowhow to throw enough offspeed stuff to strike the batter out. In fact, for a longtime, I winced when I heard this stop-time solo until I learned to just listen to it on its own. And you know what? It's grown on me until I think it's pretty terrific, with lots of new ideas to make up for what old ideas he couldn't execute anymore. Still, it's a different ballgame from those 1947 and 1957 versions. And the whole thing is over in 2 minutes and 15 seconds so it's like everyone just wanted to get it over with. Anyway, here it is:\nI doubt Louis ever performed \"Cornet Chop Suey\" again after this recording (there's an alternate from this session but it's very similar and I don't think worth sharing). I enjoy each of these versions but really, that first one, recorded 85 years ago this week, is the one that changed history. The next song recorded that day, didn't exactly do that, but it's still worth remembering. Stay tuned for my next installment on \"Oriental Strut.\"\nThanks for this post about one of the true gems of the early jazz (the 1926 version).\nBut besides this, the 1947 Town Hall version is the real suprise. The Town Hall 2-LP was my second Armstrong album (after the 1928 Hot Fives) as young jazz collector. And every time I hear these recordings again, I'm more surprised about the quality and the style of this Armstrong unit (which to me is somewhat different to nearly anything the All Stars did after the Boston Symphony concert). Just the quartet numbers like 'Cornet Shop Suey' (with Catlett, Haggart and the wonderful Dick Cary at the piano) or interpretations of 'Pennies from Heaven', 'Sunny Side' or \"Do you know what it means\" resemble to the early long play recordings that the ones like Rex Stewart, Barney Bigard, George Wettling and others made during the second half of the 40s for minor labels, with more swing-oriented interpretations of jazz standards (which in some way paved the way for Norman Granz' productions of the 50s). These recordings were tremendous influential, especially in Europe after WWII. It's a pity that Satchmo didn't record more in that vein and didn't make studio recordings in loose ensembles only with rhythm group or with sax and 2nd trumpet. So there is only Town Hall, and the earlierer Metronome/Esquire concerts.\nThe Cornet Shop Suey 1947 version is gigantic, just like the Ain't misbehavin' version of the same concert, but even more astonishing - because he never recorded or played (?) the tune in the mean time.\nThis interpretation illustrates something which Gene Anderson pointed out in his Sourcebook - that there were real ensemble numbers in the Hot Five repertoire (like Muskrat Ramble or My Heart) and tunes like Cornet Shop Suey among others (and a lot of the 1928 Hit Five numbers) where the New Orleans ensemble work was only a framework for the trumpet/cornet, which also could go for itself (like it did in 1947).\nPS: I like the 1956/57 Autobiography sessions, but in this case the 1957 version could not compare to both of the earlier versions (even inspite of Edmond Hall). But the new coda is very strong and energetic.\nSebastian (from Berlin/Germany)\nDo you know if the composition has anything to do with the food \"chop suey\"?\nHi Evelyn! Indeed, Louis was a big fan of chinese food so he was probably referring to the cuisine chop suey when he wrote this piece. The title is also a parody of a popular song by the Original Dixieland Jazz Band, \"Clarinet Marmalade.\" Louis probably wanted to write a song with a \"cornet\" in the title and needing a food, picked one of his favorite Chinese dishes. Hopes this helps!\nMike Vax said...\nI have known about your work for a long time and really respect your dedication to the great Louis Armstrong. I don't know if you are aware that my TRPTS group (four trumpets and rhythm) has recorded some of Louis' materiel in four part harmony, sort of like Supersax did with Charlie Parker. We actually do solos by many of the trumpet greats and other music from jazz trumpet history. We have recorded Wild Man Blues and one I call \"Louis meets the Bird\" with Donna Lee and Indiana played together and a voiced out solo by Louis in the middle. We have also published these arrangements and others by the band. The latest to come out is Cornet Chop Suey.",

        "raw_content": "Water is very essential to life. Man can survive without food for days but weakens if he has no water to drink. Aside from hydration purposes, it is also used for cooking, cleaning, bathing, watering the plants and so many other purposes.\nToday, drinking water coolers are popular for homes, schools, and offices. Having safe and potable water is very important and it is even more enjoyable when it is served cold.\nWall Mounted Water Cooler\nA wall-mounted water cooler, which is also called a drinking fountain, uses the house or building\u2019s tap water supply and come with a button or a valve. When pressed, the chilled water spouts up and stops when the button is released. The spout must allow a water flow of at least four inches high. A wall-mounted water cooler is ideal for large households or for homes with disabled persons. The height requirement of the water fountain is 36 inches from the ground so that kids and people in wheelchairs can maneuver it easily.\nFreestanding Water Cooler\nThe second type, which is the freestanding water cooler, is a new innovation. A freestanding water cooler is often used in houses or offices where tap water is not considered safe for drinking. The water is sourced from water bottling companies and this type of drinking water cooler generally has two taps, one for cold water and another one for hot water. It is plugged into an electric outlet to change the water temperature. Unplugging the water cooler keeps the water at room temperature.\nThe bottle for this type of water cooler holds up to five gallons of water. You can change the empty water bottle yourself, or you can wait for the deliveryman to do it for you. Just make sure that the water bottle is clean before placing it. A porcelain water cooler is also available, and even if it is not electric, the water is still kept at a cool temperature because of the 100% vitrified porcelain crock that it is built with.\nWater Cooler Maintenance\nIt is important to ensure the cleanliness of drinking water coolers. Regular cleaning of the water cooler eliminates the growth of bacteria. There is no need to clean the wall-mounted fountain often but you may need to regularly clean a freestanding water cooler because it is susceptible to the contamination of germs and bacteria.\nHere are some tips you can use in maintaining and cleaning your drinking water coolers:\nA bleach solution is ideal for cleaning a freestanding water cooler. Just dilute a tablespoon of bleach per gallon of water. Before cleaning the water cooler, make sure it is unplugged from the electrical outlet, and then begin to wipe the water dispenser and let the solution stand for a few minutes. This removes any build up in the unit.\nThe removable dip tray can be cleaned using a mild detergent.\nThe replacement water bottle should always be wiped clean before being placed it into the water cooler.",

        "raw_content": "How Tariffs Affect the US Economy\nThe topic of tariffs may appear in the news a great deal these days, but these types of taxes are nothing new. Congress passed many tariffs into law over the past several decades. Foreign countries and their governments also levy these duties against the United States and other nations. Today, the United States shifted its policy to collect a wide range of tariffs against various countries. Some of these countries are long-time allies. What motivated the tariffs? Essentially, concerns over trade imbalances pushed the decision. Economists generally don\u2019t support these duties. So, questions arise about the impact of tariffs on the U.S. economy. Will the effect be a positive or negative one?\nDefining Tariffs\nThe first step to understanding the impact of tariffs involves defining them. As noted, tariffs are taxes on imports. The fees can also be punitive. Often, the purpose of a tariff involves an attempt at changing another country\u2019s behavior. If a nation known for unfair trade practices chooses to import a product into the United States, a tariff could attempt to sway the country into changing those practices. Many countries around the world impose tariffs as a protectionist measure. That is, they use tariff fees to dissuade imports to protect domestic products. Such a plan can be fraught with risk though.\nConsumer Concerns Over Tariffs\nTariffs create a ripple effect throughout the economy. The impact isn\u2019t always positive. While the goal may be to change behavior or open foreign markets, problems arise when the costs of goods and services increase. Essentially, businesses transfer the cost of tariffs to the consumer.\nIf the cost of goods increases due to the imposition of tariffs, people must spend more money to purchase something at its new price. Of course, consumers retain the option of not purchasing a product at all. Think of the effect this can have on the automobile industry. The increased price of a particular model of a car could lead consumers to abandon the manufacturer.\nThe consumer isn\u2019t alone regarding the adverse cost effects. Price increases derive from a manufacturer paying more for parts or other necessary items. Scaling back on production may become unavoidable. All these issues create woes that spin through the economy as a whole.\nThe Economy Suffers\nThe economy experiences undesirable effects due to the presence of tariffs. Customers who spend more money on one product end up with less money to spend on other things. They also can\u2019t put the spent funds towards investments or additional savings. In short, money gets sucked into the tariff quagmire.\nIf consumers choose not to spend money, then businesses suffer decreased profits. Businesses also experience other problems such as a reduced stock price valuation. Investors won\u2019t be thrilled to see their portfolio lose value.\nWill a country stand by and accept the imposition of tariffs without taking action? Usually, a country responds by issuing tariffs as a retaliatory measure. Now, the cost of exporting materials and products into another country becomes costly. At this point, the United States finds itself in a trade war with other nations. Trade wars can prove disastrous if lost. Honestly, evening winning a trade war might come with financial costs.\nWhen losing money, companies cut their losses. A business cannot stay in operation if costs become too high. A company may take the immediate steps to layoff workers. In other situations, a business may relocate overseas to escape the tariff situation. Either way, the United States\u2019 workers lose their jobs due to the imposition of tariffs. Unemployment is hardly beneficial to the U.S. economy. Although tariffs may exist with the intention of helping the American worker, the worker may find him/herself harmed significantly.\nEventually, all the negatives associated with tariffs can add up to a recession. Both productivity and the gross domestic product decline. The economy drags as a result.\nA Possible Upside\nThe U.S. could win a trade war with its tariffs. Foreign countries may open their markets. Existing trade imbalances might change and even out. All these reflect possible outcomes. Unfortunately, no guarantees exist for a positive end to a trade war. No one knows how things may turn out. The United States\u2019 economy could suffer severely from tariff-imposed disasters.\n4 Questions to Ask your Mortgage Consultant\n5 Most Important Pieces of Lab Equipment\n8 Smart Ways to Incorporate Refurbished Furniture in Your Home\nhttp://eblogin.com/how-tariffs-affect-the-us-economy\">",

Taking her fate into her own hands, she flees to the Gyre, a floating continent of garbage and scrap in the Pacific Ocean, in this thrilling, surprising, and thought-provoking debut novel that will appeal to fans of Across the Universe, by Beth Revis, and The Handmaid's Tale, by Margaret Atwood.\nI had pretty high expectations for Salvage, partly because of the beautiful cover and partly because I adore sci-fi and I loved Beth Revis's Across the Universe series. Let me tell you now that the books are nothing alike, apart from the fact that both have space settings. I found myself disappointed with this book overall, but there were definitely parts that I enjoyed.\nAva lives on the Parastrata, the ship where she was born and has been living her whole life. But when it's time for her to get married, Ava makes a life-altering mistake, and as a result she's cast out. She escapes imminent death, taking refuge on Earth, or 'groundside', where she's never set foot before. Ava has to learn to fit in and take care of herself while simultaneously trying to find out what happened to Luck, the boy she's in love with and was supposed to marry.\nIt was really hard for me to get into this novel, mostly due to the unusual way the characters spoke on the ship. The phrasing was odd, even in the narration, since it's in first person from Ava's point of view. It took a while to get accustomed to that. Also, I found that nothing really happened for a long time, and I ended up skimming occasionally through the first half. The book is divided into two parts, and it only started getting really good in Part 2. Since this is about halfway in, I'm just proud I managed to plow through the bits I couldn't enjoy.\nI think the world-building is really great, and we get to see exactly how lives are led on the Parastrata. The people have a really sexist attitude, though. It seemed to me like they were living in ancient times rather than a futuristic one. The women only cleaned, took care of the livestock, and had babies. The men were the ones doing mechanical work and trading with other ships. Also, the polygamy was a little unsettling as well, though interesting. Most men of power have several wives, and they cast off the previous ones like they're nothing. The Parastrata really doesn't seem like a nice place to live in, and I'm glad Ava got the hell out of there.\nI loved that Part 2 is set in Mumbai! Well, because I'm from there. Anyway, I liked that the author has done her research pretty well, and the Hindi phrases included were definitely a nice touch. Like I said, the world-building is done really well, so we get to see what kind of city the Mumbai she visited was. It's not much different from what it currently is, which was a bit of a letdown because I was expecting more advanced things since they have regular space travel and all. But regardless, it was awesome reading about my city and the people in it.\nWe don't get to know much about any character apart from Ava, because the book focuses on her development. I really liked her, though. Ava's different from her crewe because she's part-human, and also because her mind is sort of on a different wavelength. She doesn't conform to the stifling norm of the women on the ship, and she's rebellious. Ava's also really passionate, and though naive, she has a heart of gold. I honestly didn't find any faults with her - she's an amazing protagonist to read about.\nThere isn't too much romance in this book, so you'd find it surprising that there's sort of a love triangle, right? Well, there are two love interests anyway - Luck and Rushil. Luck is the guy Ava wanted to marry, and they had a serious case of insta-love. It was crazy - they'd met each other once before, and the second time they meet? Totally in love. I did like Luck, though. He seemed like he really cared for Ava. But I rooted for Rushil - a guy Ava meets in Mumbai. He's kind to her, takes her in and helps her find a job. Ava's suspicious at first, but grows to trust him. Rushil is extremely kind, and he's light-hearted as well. I think the two of them were good together.\nNot much really happens throughout, since the book is mainly Ava's journey - mental as well as physical. She searches within herself to find what she truly wants, and who she wants to be. I thought the ending was quite abrupt, for a supposed standalone. This book is really long, so maybe more pages should have been dedicated towards sorting out the ending at a slower pace rather than the overload of descriptions in the beginning. Salvage definitely wasn't what I was expecting, so if you're looking for something like Across the Universe, you'll be disappointed. But this is still a book I'd recommend, if you're looking for a unique read about a different sort of culture.\nLabels: Alexandra Duncan, ARC, Salvage, Young Adult\nIt's pretty cool that the author was able to keep the authenticity of your culture. Though it's too bad that you were not able to fully enjoy this book. I'm not a fan of slow reads myself, so I can understand your sentiments.\nGreat review, Richa. :)",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Health News \u00bb Researchers discover how sleep can fight infection\nResearchers in Germany have discovered why sleep can sometimes be the best medicine. Sleep improves the potential ability of some of the body\u2019s immune cells to attach to their targets, according to a new study that will be published February 12 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine. The study, led by Stoyan Dimitrov and Luciana Besedovsky at the University of T\u00fcbingen, helps explain how sleep can fight off an infection, whereas other conditions, such as chronic stress, can make the body more susceptible to illness.\nT cells are a type of white blood cell that are critical to the body\u2019s immune response. When T cells recognize a specific target, such as a cell infected with a virus, they activate sticky proteins known as integrins that allow them to attach to their target and, in the case of a virally infected cell, kill it. While much is known about the signals that activate integrins, signals that might dampen the ability of T cells to attach to their targets are less well understood.\nStoyan Dimitrov and colleagues at the University of T\u00fcbingen decided to investigate the effects of a diverse group of signaling molecules known as G\u03b1s-coupled receptor agonists. Many of these molecules can suppress the immune system, but whether they inhibit the ability of T cells to activate their integrins and attach to target cells was unknown.\nDimitrov and colleagues found that certain G\u03b1s-coupled receptor agonists, including the hormones adrenaline and noradrenaline, the proinflammatory molecules prostaglandin E2 and D2, and the neuromodulator adenosine, prevented T cells from activating their integrins after recognizing their target. \u201cThe levels of these molecules needed to inhibit integrin activation are observed in many pathological conditions, such as tumor growth, malaria infection, hypoxia, and stress,\u201d says Dimitrov. \u201cThis pathway may therefore contribute to the immune suppression associated with these pathologies.\u201d\nAdrenaline and prostaglandin levels dip while the body is asleep. Dimitrov and colleagues compared T cells taken from healthy volunteers while they slept or stayed awake all night. T cells taken from sleeping volunteers showed significantly higher levels of integrin activation than T cells taken from wakeful subjects. The researchers were able to confirm that the beneficial effect of sleep on T cell integrin activation was due to the decrease in G\u03b1s-coupled receptor activation.\n\u201cOur findings show that sleep has the potential to enhance the efficiency of T cell responses, which is especially relevant in light of the high prevalence of sleep disorders and conditions characterized by impaired sleep, such as depression, chronic stress, aging, and shift work,\u201d says last author Luciana Besedovsky.\nCould Chinese takeaways help fight dementia?\n\u2018Christmas brain\u2019 can give you long-term health problems, experts warn\nHealth News\tcan, discover, fight, how, infection, researchers, sleep\n\u00ab Doctors call for low-calorie diet study on teenagers to be abandoned\nWarfarin diet: 19 foods to avoid \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Health Problems \u00bb Self-harm and social media: A knee-jerk ban on content could actually harm young people\nInstagram has announced it will ban graphic self-harm images from the platform. The social media company has been under pressure from the UK government and health professionals \u2013 including Dame Sally Davies, England\u2019s chief medical officer, who recently argued that social media companies have a duty of care to keep children safe.\nThere is growing concern that such content \u201chas the effect of grooming people to take their own lives\u201d, according to Jackie Doyle-Price, the government\u2019s undersecretary for mental health, inequalities and suicide prevention.\nMuch of this concern hinges on the assumption that self-harm content causes, encourages or glorifies acts such as self-cutting and burning. But participants in our ongoing Wellcome Trust study at the University of Birmingham have challenged us to reconsider this. Ignoring their words could lead to politicians or platforms introducing safeguarding measures that unintentionally cause harm.\nIt\u2019s key to recognise that young people who search for self-harm discussions and imagery online are likely to be harming themselves already. As this research participant suggests: \u201cI started to self-harm at the age of 14, it began as a nervous habit of mine, when I was stressed. Someone noticed me scratching my hand up, which I didn\u2019t know was self-harm at the time, and this person told me that a pencil sharpener blade worked better. I couldn\u2019t get it out of my head, so I googled it and it was a spiral from there.\u201d\nSeeking understanding and support for their self-harm is a key reason why a young person may turn to social media, as another participant told us: \u201cAs a teenager I spent all my free time searching for help and support online because I just didn\u2019t have a healthy outlet or anyone to talk to. I was desperate to find people who could explain what was going on and tell me what I needed to do because I felt so lost and had no idea.\u201d\nFor a young person in distress, posting a seemingly \u201cgraphic\u201d photograph of their cut or burnt arm can be a way of reaching out for help and understanding. Friends and strangers respond with offers to talk or keep the person company, and with requests for updates on how they are.\nWhen young people express a need to harm themselves on social media, this is often met with advice on how to resist such urges, and offers of alternative coping strategies alongside \u201chugs and love\u201d. Participants may also congratulate one another for not self-harming and encourage each other to \u201cremain clean\u201d.\nThere is evidence which shows that self-harm functions as a way to cope with ongoing distress. In this case, social media can offer non-judgemental understanding.\nThe darker places\nResearch into mental health has long acknowledged the internet\u2019s potential to offer support, including in relation to self-harm. For example, analyses of pro-anorexia websites have explored the complex ways that the internet can be a \u201csanctuary\u201d for those in distress \u2013 but it also has the potential to normalise such behaviours, in a way that can stop people from seeking help offline.\nWhile this is a clear danger of content about self-harm, it\u2019s crucial to distinguish between continuation and causation, as our participant suggests: \u201cI think there\u2019s a misconception that people will get into self-harm because they see these pictures\u2026 But I think it can make it worse\u2026 There\u2019s a lot of things about social media that are really helpful and it\u2019s often the only place that people can go to talk about what they\u2019re experiencing and to get support for. But there\u2019s also some pretty dark places online.\u201d\nIt is important to note that both supportive content and \u201cgraphic\u201d self-harm content are attached to the same hashtags, or found within the same online spaces. So Instagram\u2019s jump to ban such content could be dangerous. For example, Instagram has recently altered its search engine so that it is no longer possible to search for hashtags relating to self-harm. This means that currently searching for #selfharmsupport also returns no results.\nIt\u2019s crucial to consider how to improve young people\u2019s online safety, without pushing them further towards \u201cdarker places\u201d in their search for support. Self-harm content on social media must be considered in context \u2013 and decision makers need to recognise how it relates to what\u2019s going on in society.\nAlthough our research prompts us to question the assumption that engaging with self-harm imagery or discussions can cause a young person to harm themselves, it does echo other research which suggests that cyberbullying and trolling contribute to the development of mental health problems, including self-harm.\nIf politicians and health professionals adopt a narrow focus on self-harm content, they could lose sight of the more pernicious but widespread dangers of social media. What\u2019s more, they risk overlooking the fact that young people can be propelled towards online spaces by encountering stigma and misunderstanding when they attempt to talk about self-harm with people in their lives offline. \u201cI reject the idea that it [social media] holds the blame for self-harm or related behaviour or illnesses. The real responsibility lies with what attitudes, decisions and opinions we put out into society, which we have been doing long before social media.\u201d\n\u00ab New pool pod to improve accessibility at Peterborough Sport and Wellness Centre\nIn the case of desire for children folic acid to take \u00bb",

For other species of wolf and other uses, see Wolf (disambiguation).\n\"Grey Wolf\" and \"Gray Wolf\" redirect here. For other uses, see Grey Wolf (disambiguation).\nTemporal range: Middle Pleistocene \u2013 present (810,000\u20130 years BP[1])\nEurasian wolf (Canis lupus lupus).\nrefer Subspecies of Canis lupus\nHistorical (red + green) and modern (green) range of wild subspecies of C. lupus\nThe wolf (Canis lupus),[a] also known as the grey/gray wolf or timber wolf,[4][5] is a canine native to the wilderness and remote areas of Eurasia and North America. It is the largest extant member of its family, with males averaging 43\u201345 kg (95\u201399 lb) and females 36\u201338.5 kg (79\u201385 lb).[6] It is distinguished from other Canis species by its larger size and less pointed features, particularly on the ears and muzzle.[7] Its winter fur is long and bushy and predominantly a mottled gray in color, although nearly pure white, red, and brown to black also occur.[5] Mammal Species of the World (3rd ed., 2005), a standard reference work in zoology, recognises 38 subspecies of C. lupus.[8]\nThe gray wolf is the second most specialized member of the genus Canis, after the Ethiopian wolf, as demonstrated by its morphological adaptations to hunting large prey, its more gregarious nature,[9] and its highly advanced expressive behavior.[10][11] It is nonetheless closely related enough to smaller Canis species, such as the coyote,[12] and golden jackal,[13][14] to produce fertile hybrids. It is the only species of Canis to have a range encompassing both the Old and New Worlds,[15] and originated in Eurasia during the Pleistocene, colonizing North America on at least three separate occasions during the Rancholabrean.[15] It is a social animal, travelling in nuclear families consisting of a mated pair, accompanied by the pair's adult offspring.[16] The gray wolf is typically an apex predator throughout its range, with only humans and tigers[9][17][18][19] posing a serious threat to it. It feeds primarily on large ungulates, though it also eats smaller animals, livestock, carrion, and garbage.[5] A seven-year-old wolf is considered to be relatively old, and the maximum lifespan is about 16 years.[20]\nThe global gray wolf population is estimated to be 300,000.[21] The gray wolf is one of the world's best-known and most-researched animals, with probably more books written about it than any other wildlife species.[22] It has a long history of association with humans, having been despised and hunted in most pastoral communities because of its attacks on livestock, while conversely being respected in some agrarian and hunter-gatherer societies.[23] Although the fear of wolves is pervasive in many human societies, the majority of recorded attacks on people have been attributed to animals suffering from rabies. Non-rabid wolves have attacked and killed people, mainly children, but this is rare, as wolves are relatively few, live away from people, and have developed a fear of humans from hunters and shepherds.[24]\n2.3 Population structure\n2.4 Hybridization with other Canis\n3.1 Anatomy and dimensions\n3.2 Skull and dentition\n4.1 Social and territorial behaviors\n4.2 Reproduction and development\n4.3 Hunting and feeding behaviors\n5.2 Auditory\n5.3 Olfactory\n6.3 Enemies and competitors\n7 Range and conservation\n7.2.1 Historical range and decline\n7.2.2 Modern range\n8 Diseases and parasites\n8.1 Viral and bacterial infections\n8.2 Parasitic infections\n9.1.1 In personal names\n9.1.2 In folklore, religion and mythology\n9.1.3 In fable and literature\n9.1.4 In heraldry and symbolism\n9.2.1 Wolf predation on livestock\n9.2.2 Conflicts with dogs\n9.2.3 Wolf predation on humans\n9.2.4 Human predation on wolves\n9.3 As pets and working animals\nThe English 'wolf' stems from the Old English wulf, which is itself thought to be derived from the Proto-Germanic *wulfaz. The Latin lupus is a Sabine loanword.[23] Both derive from the Proto-Indo-European root *wlqwos or *lukwos.[25]\nMain article: Subspecies of Canis lupus\nThe species Canis lupus was first recorded by Carl Linnaeus in his publication Systema Naturae in 1758,[3] with the Latin classification translating into the English words \"dog wolf\". The thirty-seven subspecies of Canis lupus are listed under the designated common name of \"wolf\" in Mammal Species of the World third edition that was published in 2005.[8] The nominate subspecies is the Eurasian wolf (Canis lupus lupus), also known as the common wolf.[26] The subspecies includes the domestic dog, dingo, eastern wolf and red wolf, but lists C. l. italicusas a synonym of C. l. lupus.[8] However, the classification of several as either species or subspecies has recently been challenged.\nMain article: Evolution of the wolf\nArtist's impression of a Beringian wolf\nThe evolution of the wolf occurred over a geologic time scale of at least 300 thousand years. The gray wolf Canis lupus is a highly adaptable species that is able to exist in a range of environments and which possesses a wide distribution across the Holarctic. Studies of modern gray wolves have identified distinct sub-populations that live in close proximity to each other.[27][28] This variation in sub-populations is closely linked to differences in habitat \u2013 precipitation, temperature, vegetation, and prey specialization \u2013 which affect cranio-dental plasticity.[29][30][31][32]\nThe archaeological and paleontological records show gray wolf continuous presence for at least the last 300,000 years.[33] This continuous presence contrasts with genomic analyses, which suggest that all modern wolves and dogs descend from a common ancestral wolf population[34][35][36] that existed as recently as 20,000 years ago.[34] These analyses indicate a population bottleneck, followed by a rapid radiation from an ancestral population at a time during, or just after, the Last Glacial Maximum. However, the geographic origin of this radiation is not known.\nIn 2018, whole genome sequencing was used to compare members of genus Canis, along with the dhole (Cuon alpinus) and the African hunting dog (Lycaon pictus). There is evidence of gene flow between African golden wolves, golden jackals, and gray wolves. One African golden wolf from the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula showed high admixture with the Middle Eastern gray wolves and dogs, highlighting the role of the land bridge between the African and Eurasian continents in canid evolution. There was evidence of gene flow between golden jackals and Middle Eastern wolves, less so with European and Asian wolves, and least with North American wolves. The study proposes that the golden jackal ancestry found in North American wolves may have occurred before the divergence of the Eurasian and North American gray wolves. The study indicates that the common ancestor of the coyote and gray wolf has genetically admixed with a ghost population of an extinct unidentified canid. The canid is genetically close to the dhole and has evolved after the divergence of the African hunting dog from the other canid species. The basal position of the coyote compared to the wolf is proposed to be due to the coyote retaining more of the mitochondrial genome of this unknown canid.[37]\nIn 2013, a genetic study found that the wolf population in Europe was divided along a north-south axis and formed five major clusters. Three clusters were identified occupying southern and central Europe in Italy, the Dinaric-Balkans, the Carpathians. Another two clusters were identified occupying north-central Europe and the Ukrainian steppe. The Italian wolf consisted of an isolated population with low genetic diversity. Wolves from Croatia, Bulgaria, and Greece formed the Dinaric-Balkans cluster. Wolves from Finland, Latvia, Belarus, Poland and Russia formed the north-central Europe cluster, with wolves from the Carpathians cluster coming from a mixture of wolves from the north-central cluster and the Dinaric-Balkans cluster. The wolves from the Carpathians were more similar to the wolves from the Pontic-Caspian Steppe than they were to wolves from north-central Europe. These clusters may have been the result of expansion from glacial refugia, an adaptation to local environments, and landscape fragmentation and the killing of wolves in some areas by humans.[38]\nIn 2016, two genetic studies of North American gray wolves found that they formed six ecotypes \u2013 genetically and ecologically distinct populations separated from other populations by their different type of habitat. These six wolf ecotypes were named West Forest, Boreal Forest, Arctic, High Arctic, Baffin, and British Columbia. The studies found that precipitation and mean diurnal temperature range were the most influential variables.[28][39] These findings were in accord with previous studies that precipitation influenced morphology and that vegetation and habitat type influenced wolf differences.[39] The local adaptation of a wolf ecotype most likely reflects a wolf's preference to remain in the type of habitat that it was born into.[28]\nHybridization with other Canis\nMain article: Canid hybrid\nF1 wolf-dog hybrids from Wildlife Park Kadzidlowo, Poland. The first is the product of a male wolf and a female spaniel, while the latter comes from a female wolf and a male West Siberian Laika\nIt was once thought that dogs and gray wolves did not voluntarily interbreed in the wild, though they can produce fertile wolf-dog offspring.[40] In 2010, a study of 74 Italian wolf male lineages found that 5 of them originated from dog ancestry, indicating that female wolves will breed with stray male dogs in the wild.[41] In North America, black colored wolves acquired their coloration from wolf-dog hybridization, which occurred 10,000\u201315,000 years ago.[42] Like pure wolves, hybrids breed once annually, though their mating season occurs three months earlier, with pups mostly being born in the winter period, thus lessening their chances of survival.[40] However, one genetic study undertaken in the Caucasus Mountains showed that as many as 10% of dogs in the area, including livestock guardian dogs, are first generation hybrids.[43] The captive breeding of wolf-dog hybrids has proliferated in the United States, where there is an estimated population of 300,000.[44]\nThe gray wolf does not readily interbreed with coyotes.[15] Nevertheless, In 2018, a study looked at the genomic structure and admixture of North American wolves, coyotes, and other wolf-like canids using specimens from across their entire range that mapped the largest dataset of nuclear genome sequences and compared these against the wolf reference genome. The study supports the findings of previous studies that North American gray wolves and other wolf-like canids were the result of complex gray wolf and coyote mixing. A polar wolf from Greenland and a coyote from Mexico represented the purest specimens. The coyotes from Alaska, California, Alabama, and Quebec show almost no wolf ancestry. Coyotes from Missouri, Illinois, and Florida exhibit 5\u201310% wolf ancestry. There was 40%:60% wolf to coyote ancestry in red wolves, 60%:40% in eastern wolves from Ontario, and 75%:25% in wolves in the Great Lakes region. There was 10% coyote ancestry in Mexican wolves, 5% in Pacific Coast and Yellowstone wolves, and less than 3% in Canadian archipelago wolves.[45] The study indicates that the genomic ancestry of red, eastern and Great Lakes wolves were the result of admixture between modern gray wolves and modern coyotes. This was then followed by development into local populations. Individuals within each group showed consistent levels of coyote to wolf inheritance, indicating that this was the result of relatively ancient admixture. The eastern wolf (Angonquin Provincial Park) is genetically closely related to the Great Lakes wolf (Minnisota, Isle Royale National Park). If a third canid had been involved in the admixture of the North American wolf-like canids then its genetic signature would have been found in coyotes and wolves, which it has not.[45]\nAdditionally, coyote genetic markers have been found in some wild isolated gray wolf populations in the southern United States. Gray wolf Y-chromosomes have also been found in Texan coyote haplotypes.[46] In tests performed on a Texan canid of ambiguous species, mtDNA analysis showed that it was a coyote, though subsequent tests revealed that it was a coyote\u2013gray wolf hybrid sired by a male Mexican gray wolf.[47] In 2013, a captive breeding experiment in Utah between gray wolves and western coyotes produced six hybrids through artificial insemination, making this the first hybridization case between pure coyotes and northwestern wolves. At six months of age, the hybrids were closely monitored and were shown to display both physical and behavioral characteristics from both species.[12]\nAlthough hybridization between wolves and golden jackals has never been observed, evidence of such occurrences was discovered through mtDNA analysis on jackals in Bulgaria.[14] Although there is no genetic evidence of gray wolf-jackal hybridization in the Caucasus Mountains, there have been cases where otherwise genetically pure golden jackals have displayed remarkably gray wolf-like phenotypes, to the point of being mistaken for wolves by trained biologists.[43]\nAnatomy and dimensions\nDifferences between gray wolf and coyote\nGray wolf skeleton\nWolf mandible diagram showing the names and positions of the teeth.\nThe gray wolf is the largest extant member of the Canidae, excepting certain large breeds of domestic dog.[48] Gray wolf weight and size can vary greatly worldwide, tending to increase proportionally with latitude as predicted by Bergmann's Rule,[9] with the large wolves of Alaska and Canada sometimes weighing 3\u20136 times more than their Middle Eastern and South Asian cousins.[49] On average, adult wolves measure 105\u2013160 cm (41\u201363 in) in length and 80\u201385 cm (31\u201333 in) in shoulder height.[9] The tail measures 29\u201350 cm (11\u201320 in) in length. The ears are 90\u2013110 mm (3.5\u20134.3 in) in height, and the hind feet are 220\u2013250 mm (8.7\u20139.8 in).[9] The mean body mass of the extant gray wolf is 40 kg (88 lb), with the smallest specimen recorded at 12 kg (26 lb) and the largest at 79.4 kg (175 lb).[50][51][52][53][54] Gray wolf weight varies geographically; on average, European wolves may weigh 38.5 kg (85 lb), North American wolves 36 kg (79 lb) and Indian and Arabian wolves 25 kg (55 lb).[55] Females in any given wolf population typically weigh 5\u201310 lb (2.3\u20134.5 kg) less than males.[56] Wolves weighing over 54 kg (119 lb) are uncommon, though exceptionally large individuals have been recorded in Alaska, Canada,[56] and the forests of western Russia.[9] The heaviest recorded gray wolf in North America was killed on 70 Mile River in east-central Alaska on July 12, 1939 and weighed 79.4 kg (175 lb).[57]\nCompared to its closest wild cousins (the coyote and golden jackal), the gray wolf is larger and heavier, with a broader snout, shorter ears, a shorter torso and longer tail.[9][13][48] It is a slender, powerfully built animal with a large, deeply descending ribcage, a sloping back and a heavily muscled neck.[9] The wolf's legs are moderately longer than those of other canids, which enables the animal to move swiftly, and allows it to overcome the deep snow that covers most of its geographical range.[58] The ears are relatively small and triangular.[9] Females tend to have narrower muzzles and foreheads, thinner necks, slightly shorter legs and less massive shoulders than males.[59]\nThe gray wolf usually carries its head at the same level as the back, raising it only when alert.[9] It usually travels at a loping pace, placing its paws one directly in front of the other. This gait can be maintained for hours at a rate of 8\u20139 km/h (5.0\u20135.6 mph),[60] and allows the wolf to cover great distances. On bare paths, a wolf can quickly achieve speeds of 50\u201360 km/h (31\u201337 mph). The gray wolf has a running gait of 55\u201370 km/h (34\u201343 mph), can leap 5 m (16 ft) horizontally in a single bound, and can maintain rapid pursuit for at least 20 minutes.[61]\nGenerally, wolves have a high heart weight of 0.93%\u20131.07% total body mass compared to the average mammal at 0.59% total body mass.[62] Wolves have a decreased heart rate suggesting cardiac enlargement and hypertrophy. Tibetan gray wolves, which occupy territories up to 3,000 above sea level, have evolved hearts that withstand the low oxygen levels.[63] Specifically, these wolves have a strong selection for RYR2, a gene that initiates cardiac excitation.\nSkull and dentition\nThe gray wolf's head is large and heavy, with a wide forehead, strong jaws and a long, blunt muzzle.[9] The skull averages 230\u2013280 mm (9.1\u201311.0 in) in length, and 130\u2013150 mm (5.1\u20135.9 in) wide.[64] The teeth are heavy and large, being better suited to crushing bone than those of other extant canids, though not as specialised as those found in hyenas.[65][66] Its molars have a flat chewing surface, but not to the same extent as the coyote, whose diet contains more vegetable matter.[4] The gray wolf's jaws can exert a crushing pressure of perhaps 10,340 kPa (1,500 psi) compared to 5,200 kPa (750 psi) for a German shepherd. This force is sufficient to break open most bones.[67] A study of the estimated bite force at the canine teeth of a large sample of living and fossil mammalian predators when adjusted for the body mass found that for placental mammals, the bite force at the canines (in Newtons/kilogram of body weight) was greatest in the extinct dire wolf (163), then followed among the extant canids by the four hypercarnivores that often prey on animals larger than themselves: the African hunting dog (142), the gray wolf (136), the dhole (112), and the dingo (108). A similar trend was found with the carnassial tooth bite force, but with the extinct dire wolf and gray wolf both measuring (141), then followed by the African hunting dog (136), the dhole (114), and the dingo (113).[68]\nSee also: Dog anatomy\nBlack and white-furred Northwestern wolves\nThe gray wolf has very dense and fluffy winter fur, with short underfur and long, coarse guard hairs.[9] Most of the underfur and some of the guard hairs are shed in the spring and grow back in the autumn period.[55] The longest hairs occur on the back, particularly on the front quarters and neck. Especially long hairs are on the shoulders, and almost form a crest on the upper part of the neck. The hairs on the cheeks are elongated and form tufts. The ears are covered in short hairs, which strongly project from the fur. Short, elastic and closely adjacent hairs are present on the limbs from the elbows down to the calcaneal tendons.[9] The winter fur is highly resistant to cold; wolves in northern climates can rest comfortably in open areas at \u221240\u00b0 by placing their muzzles between the rear legs and covering their faces with their tail. Wolf fur provides better insulation than dog fur, and does not collect ice when warm breath is condensed against it.[55] In warm climates, the fur is coarser and scarcer than in northern wolves.[9] Female wolves tend to have smoother furred limbs than males, and generally develop the smoothest overall coats as they age. Older wolves generally have more white hairs in the tip of the tail, along the nose and on the forehead. The winter fur is retained longest in lactating females, though with some hair loss around their nipples.[59] Hair length on the middle of the back is 60\u201370 mm (2.4\u20132.8 in). Hair length of the guard hairs on the shoulders generally does not exceed 90 mm (3.5 in), but can reach 110\u2013130 mm (4.3\u20135.1 in).[9]\nCoat color ranges from almost pure white through various shades of blond, cream, and ochre to grays, browns, and blacks,[69] with variation in fur color tending to increase in higher latitudes.[70] Differences in coat color between sexes are largely absent,[9] though females may have redder tones.[71] Black-colored wolves in North America inherited the Kb allele responsible for melanism from past interbreeding with dogs,[42] while the mutation was found to be naturally occurring in wolves from Iran.[72] Black specimens are more common in North America than in Eurasia, with about half the wolves in Yellowstone National Park being black.[42]\nSee also: Dog behavior\nSocial and territorial behaviors\nItalian wolf pack\nThe gray wolf is a social animal, whose basic social unit consists of a mated pair, accompanied by the pair's adult offspring.[b] The average pack consists of a family of 5\u201311 animals (1\u20132 adults, 3\u20136 juveniles and 1\u20133 yearlings),[9] or sometimes two or three such families,[4] with exceptionally large packs consisting of up to 42 wolves being known.[74] In ideal conditions, the mated pair produces pups every year, with such offspring typically staying in the pack for 10\u201354 months before dispersing.[16] Triggers for dispersal include the onset of sexual maturity and competition within the pack for food.[75] The distance travelled by dispersing wolves varies widely; some stay in the vicinity of the parental group, while other individuals may travel great distances of 206 km (128 mi), 390 km (240 mi), and 670 km (420 mi) from their natal packs.[61] A new pack is usually founded by an unrelated dispersing male and female, travelling together in search of an area devoid of other hostile packs.[76] Wolf packs rarely adopt other wolves into their fold, and typically kill them. In the rare cases where other wolves are adopted, the adoptee is almost invariably an immature animal (1\u20133 years of age) unlikely to compete for breeding rights with the mated pair. In some cases, a lone wolf is adopted into a pack to replace a deceased breeder.[74] During times of ungulate abundance (migration, calving etc.), different wolf packs may temporarily join forces.[9] Studies of wolves' cortisol levels show that they rise significantly when a pack member dies, indicating the presence of stress.[77]\nWolves are highly territorial animals, and generally establish territories far larger than they require to survive in order to assure a steady supply of prey. Territory size depends largely on the amount of prey available and the age of the pack's pups, tending to increase in size in areas with low prey populations[78] or when the pups reach the age of 6 months, thus having the same nutritional needs as adults.[79] Wolf packs travel constantly in search of prey, covering roughly 9% of their territory per day (average 25 km/d (16 mi/d)). The core of their territory is on average 35 km2 (14 sq mi), in which they spend 50% of their time.[78] Prey density tends to be much higher in the territory's surrounding areas, though wolves tend to avoid hunting in the fringes of their range unless desperate, because of the possibility of fatal encounters with neighboring packs.[80] The smallest territory on record was held by a pack of six wolves in northeastern Minnesota, which occupied an estimated 33 km2 (13 sq mi), while the largest was held by an Alaskan pack of ten wolves encompassing a 6,272 km2 (2,422 sq mi) area.[79] Wolf packs are typically settled, and usually only leave their accustomed ranges during severe food shortages.[9]\nWolves defend their territories from other packs through a combination of scent marking, direct attacks and howling (see Communication). Scent marking is used for territorial advertisement, and involves urination, defecation and ground scratching.[81][82][83][84][85] Scent marks are generally left every 240 m (260 yd) throughout the territory on regular travelways and junctions. Such markers can last for 2\u20133 weeks,[79] and are typically placed near rocks, boulders, trees, or the skeletons of large animals.[9] Territorial fights are among the principal causes of wolf mortality, with one study concluding that 14\u201365% of wolf deaths in Minnesota and the Denali National Park and Preserve were due to predation by other wolves.[86]\nSee also: Canine reproduction\nGray wolves mating\nThe gray wolf is generally monogamous,[87] with mated pairs usually remaining together for life. Upon the death of one mated wolf, pairs are quickly re-established. Since males often predominate in any given wolf population, unpaired females are a rarity.[9] If a dispersing male gray wolf is unable to establish a territory or find a mate, he mates with the daughters of already established breeding pairs from other packs. Such gray wolves are termed \"Casanova wolves\" and, unlike males from established packs, they do not form pair bonds with the females they mate with. Some gray wolf packs may have multiple breeding females this way, as is the case in Yellowstone National Park.[88] Gray wolves also practice alloparental care, in which a wolf pair may adopt the pup or pups of another. This might take place if the original parents die or are for some reason separated from them.[89] In addition to heterosexual behavior, homosexual behavior has been observed in gray wolves.[90] Male gray wolves often mount each other when the highest ranking female in the pack comes into heat.[91]\nIllustrated growth stages of the Northwestern wolf: newborn, three weeks old, two months old, and a one-year-old adult wolf\nThe age of first breeding in gray wolves depends largely on environmental factors: when food is plentiful, or when wolf populations are heavily managed, wolves can rear pups at younger ages in order to better exploit abundant resources. This is further demonstrated by the fact that captive wolves have been known to breed as soon as they reach 9\u201310 months, while the youngest recorded breeding wolves in the wild were 2 years old. Females are capable of producing pups every year, with one litter annually being the average. Unlike the coyote, the gray wolf never reaches reproductive senescence.[92] Estrus typically occurs in late winter, with older, multiparous females entering estrus 2\u20133 weeks earlier than younger females.[9] During pregnancy, female wolves remain in a den located away from the peripheral zone of their territories, where violent encounters with other packs are more likely.[93] Old females usually whelp in the den of their previous litter, while younger females typically den near their birthplace. The gestation period lasts 62\u201375 days, with pups usually being born in the summer period.[9]\nWolves bear relatively large pups in small litters compared to other canid species.[94] The average litter consists of 5\u20136 pups,[95] with litter sizes tending to increase in areas where prey is abundant,[95] though exceptionally large litters of 14\u201317 pups occur only 1% of the time.[96] Pups are usually born in spring, coinciding with a corresponding increase in prey populations.[93] Pups are born blind and deaf, and are covered in short soft grayish-brown fur. They weigh 300\u2013500 g (11\u201318 oz) at birth, and begin to see after 9\u201312 days. The milk canines erupt after one month. Pups first leave the den after 3 weeks. At 1.5 months of age, they are agile enough to flee from danger. Mother wolves do not leave the den for the first few weeks, relying on the fathers to provide food for them and their young. Pups begin to eat solid food at the age of 3\u20134 weeks. Pups have a fast growth rate during their first four months of life: during this period, a pup's weight can increase nearly 30 times.[9][94] Wolf pups begin play fighting at the age of 3 weeks, though unlike young foxes and coyotes, their bites are inhibited. Actual fights to establish hierarchy usually occur at 5\u20138 weeks of age. This is in contrast to young foxes and coyotes, which may begin fighting even before the onset of play behavior.[10] By autumn, the pups are mature enough to accompany adults on hunts for large prey.[93]\nHunting and feeding behaviors\nAmerican bison standing its ground, increasing its chance of survival\nGray wolf trotting. The gray wolf generally places its hind paws in the tracks made by the front paws.[58]\nAlthough social animals, single wolves or mated pairs typically have higher success rates in hunting than do large packs, with single wolves having occasionally been observed to kill large prey such as moose, bison and muskoxen unaided.[97] The gray wolf's sense of smell is relatively weakly developed when compared to that of some hunting dog breeds, being able to detect carrion upwind no farther than 2\u20133 kilometres (1.2\u20131.9 mi). Because of this, it rarely manages to capture hidden hares or birds, though it can easily follow fresh tracks. Its auditory perception is acute enough to be able to hear up to a frequency of 26 kHz,[98] which is sufficient to register the fall of leaves in the autumn period.[9] A gray wolf hunt can be divided into five stages:\nLocating prey: The wolves travel in search of prey through their power of scent, chance encounter, and tracking. Wolves typically locate their prey by scent, though they must usually be directly downwind of it. When a breeze carrying the prey's scent is located, the wolves stand alert, and point their eyes, ears and nose towards their target. In open areas, wolves may precede the hunt with group ceremonies involving standing nose-to-nose and wagging their tails. Once concluded, the wolves head towards their prey.[99]\nThe stalk: The wolves attempt to conceal themselves as they approach.[100] As the gap between the wolves and their prey closes, the wolves quicken their pace, wag their tails, and peer intently, getting as close to their quarry as possible without making it flee.[101]\nThe encounter: Once the prey detects the wolves, it can either approach the wolves, stand its ground, or flee. Large prey, such as moose, elk, and muskoxen, usually stand their ground. Should this occur, the wolves hold back, as they require the stimulus of a running animal to proceed with an attack.[102] If the targeted animal stands its ground, the wolves either ignore it, or try to intimidate it into running.[97]\nThe rush: If the prey attempts to flee, the wolves immediately pursue it. This is the most critical stage of the hunt, as wolves may never catch up with prey running at top speed.[103] If their prey is travelling in a group, the wolves either attempt to break up the herd, or isolate one or two animals from it.[100]\nThe chase: A continuation of the rush, the wolves attempt to catch up with their prey and kill it.[104] When chasing small prey, wolves attempt to catch up with their prey as soon as possible, while with larger animals, the chase is prolonged, in order to wear the selected prey out. Wolves usually give up chases after 1\u20132 km (0.62\u20131.3 mi), though one wolf was recorded to chase a deer for 21 km (13 mi).[97] Both Russian and North American wolves have been observed to drive prey onto crusted ice, precipices, ravines, slopes and steep banks to slow them down.[105]\nKilling a moose in typical fashion: biting the hindquarters\nThe actual killing method varies according to prey species. With large prey, mature wolves usually avoid attacking frontally, instead focusing on the rear and sides of the animal. Large prey, such as moose, is killed by biting large chunks of flesh from the soft perineum area, causing massive blood loss. Such bites can cause wounds 10\u201315 cm (3.9\u20135.9 in) in length, with three such bites to the perineum usually being sufficient to bring down a large deer in optimum health.[105] With medium-sized prey such as roe deer or sheep, wolves kill by biting the throat, severing nerve tracks and the carotid artery, thus causing the animal to die within a few seconds to a minute. With small, mouse-like prey, wolves leap in a high arc and immobilize it with their forepaws.[106] When prey is vulnerable and abundant, wolves may occasionally surplus kill. Such instances are common in domestic animals, but rare in the wild. In the wild, surplus killing primarily occurs during late winter or spring, when snow is unusually deep (thus impeding the movements of prey)[107] or during the denning period, when wolves require a ready supply of meat when denbound.[108] Medium-sized prey are especially vulnerable to surplus killing, as the swift throat-biting method by which they are killed allows wolves to quickly kill one animal and move on to another.[106]\nTwo gray wolves eating a white-tailed deer\nOnce prey is brought down, wolves begin to feed excitedly, ripping and tugging at the carcass in all directions, and bolting down large chunks of it.[109] The breeding pair typically monopolizes food in order to continue producing pups. When food is scarce, this is done at the expense of other family members, especially non-pups.[110] The breeding pair typically eats first, though as it is they who usually work the hardest in killing prey, they may rest after a long hunt and allow the rest of the family to eat unmolested. Once the breeding pair has finished eating, the rest of the family tears off pieces of the carcass and transport them to secluded areas where they can eat in peace. Wolves typically commence feeding by consuming the larger internal organs of their prey, such as the heart, liver, lungs and stomach lining. The kidneys and spleen are eaten once they are exposed, followed by the muscles.[111] A single wolf can eat 15\u201319% of its body weight in a single feeding.[112]\nSee also: Dog communication\nThe gray wolf's expressive behavior is more complex than that of the coyote and golden jackal, as necessitated by its group living and hunting habits. While less gregarious canids generally possess simple repertoires of visual signals, wolves have more varied signals that subtly inter grade in intensity.[10][11] When neutral, the legs are not stiffened, the tail hangs down loosely, the face is smooth, the lips untensed, and the ears point in no particular direction.[113] Postural communication in wolves consists of a variety of facial expressions, tail positions and piloerection.[98] Aggressive, or self-assertive wolves are characterized by their slow and deliberate movements, high body posture and raised hackles, while submissive ones carry their bodies low, sleeken their fur and lower their ears and tail.[114] When a breeding male encounters a subordinate family member, it may stare at it, standing erect and still with the tails horizontal to its spine.[115] Two forms of submissive behavior are recognized: passive and active. Passive submission usually occurs as a reaction to the approach of a dominant animal, and consists of the submissive wolf lying partly on its back and allowing the dominant wolf to sniff its anogenital area. Active submission occurs often as a form of greeting, and involves the submissive wolf approaching another in a low posture, and licking the other wolf's face.[116] When wolves are together, they commonly indulge in behaviors such as nose pushing, jaw wrestling, cheek rubbing and facial licking. The mouthing of each other's muzzles is a friendly gesture, while clamping on the muzzle with bared teeth is a dominance display.[117]\nSimilar to humans, gray wolves have facial color patterns in which the gaze direction can be easily identified, although this is often not the case in other canid species. In 2014, a study compared the facial color pattern across 25 canid species. The results suggested that the facial color pattern of canid species is related to their gaze communication, and that especially gray wolves use the gaze signal in conspecific communication.[118]\nFacial expressions (Konrad Lorenz, 1952). Bottom to top: increasing fear (ears back); left to right: increasing aggression (snarl); top right: maximum of both.\nExpressive characteristics of visual features\nused during social interactions in wolves[114]\nEyes Direct stare\nOpen wide Looking away\nClosed to slits\nEars Erect and forward Flattened and turned down to side\nLips Horizontal contraction\n(\"agonistic pucker\") Horizontal retraction (\"submissive grin\")\nMouth Opened Closed\nTeeth Canines bared Canines covered\nTongue Retracted Extended (\"lick intention\")\nNose Shortened (skin folded) Lengthened (skin smoothed)\nForehead Contracted (bulging over eyes) Stretched (smoothed)\nHead Held high Lowered\nNeck Arched Extended\nHair Erect (bristled) Sleeked\nBody Erect, tall Crouched, low\nQuivering Tucked under body\nGray wolves howl to assemble the pack (usually before and after hunts), to pass on an alarm (particularly at a den site), to locate each other during a storm or unfamiliar territory and to communicate across great distances.[119] Wolf howls can under certain conditions be heard over areas of up to 130 km2 (50 sq mi).[4] Wolf howls are generally indistinguishable from those of large dogs.[120] Male wolves give voice through an octave, passing to a deep bass with a stress on \"O\", while females produce a modulated nasal baritone with stress on \"U\". Pups almost never howl, while yearling wolves produce howls ending in a series of dog-like yelps.[9] Howling consists of a fundamental frequency that may lie between 150 and 780 Hz, and consists of up to 12 harmonically related overtones. The pitch usually remains constant or varies smoothly, and may change direction as many as four or five times.[48] Howls used for calling pack mates to a kill are long, smooth sounds similar to the beginning of the cry of a horned owl. When pursuing prey, they emit a higher pitched howl, vibrating on two notes. When closing in on their prey, they emit a combination of a short bark and a howl.[120] When howling together, wolves harmonize rather than chorus on the same note, thus creating the illusion of there being more wolves than there actually are.[119] Lone wolves typically avoid howling in areas where other packs are present.[121] Wolves from different geographic locations may howl in different fashions: the howls of European wolves are much more protracted and melodious than those of North American wolves, whose howls are louder and have a stronger emphasis on the first syllable. The two are however mutually intelligible, as North American wolves have been recorded to respond to European-style howls made by biologists.[122]\nOther vocalisations of wolves are usually divided into three categories: growls, barks and whines.[123] Barking has a fundamental frequency between 320\u2013904 Hz,[48] and is usually emitted by startled wolves. Wolves do not bark as loudly or continuously as dogs do, but bark a few times and retreat from perceived danger.[123] Growling has a fundamental frequency of 380\u2013450 Hz,[48] and is usually emitted during food challenges. Pups commonly growl when playing. One variation of the howl is accompanied by a high pitched whine, which precedes a lunging attack.[119] Whining is associated with situations of anxiety, curiosity, inquiry and intimacy such as greeting, feeding pups and playing.[123]\nGray wolf marking its territory with urine\nOlfaction is probably the wolf's most acute sense, and plays a fundamental role in communication. The wolf has a large number of apocrine sweat glands on the face, lips, back, and between the toes. The odor produced by these glands varies according to the individual wolf's microflora and diet, giving each a distinct \"odor fingerprint\". A combination of apocrine and eccrine sweat glands on the feet allows the wolf to deposit its scent whilst scratching the ground, which usually occurs after urine marking and defecation during the breeding season. The follicles present on the guard hairs from the wolf's back have clusters of apocrine and sebaceous glands at their bases. As the skin on the back is usually folded, this provides a microclimate for bacterial propagation around the glands. During piloerection, the guard hairs on the back are raised and the skin folds spread, thus releasing scent.[124]\nThe pre-caudal scent glands may play a role in expressing aggression, as combative wolves raise the base of their tails whilst drooping the tip, thus positioning the scent glands at the highest point.[120] The wolf possesses a pair of anal sacs beneath the rectum, which contain both apocrine and sebaceous glands. The components of anal sac secretions vary according to season and gender, thus indicating that the secretions provide information related to gender and reproductive state. The secretions of the preputial glands may advertise hormonal condition or social position, as dominant wolves have been observed to stand over subordinates, apparently presenting the genital area for investigation,[124] which may include genital licking.[125]\nDuring the breeding season, female wolves secrete substances from the vagina, which communicate the females' reproductive state, and can be detected by males from long distances. Urine marking is the best-studied means of olfactory communication in wolves. Its exact function is debated, though most researchers agree that its primary purpose is to establish boundaries. Wolves urine mark more frequently and vigorously in unfamiliar areas, or areas of intrusion, where the scent of other wolves or canids is present. So-called raised leg urination (RLU) is more common in male wolves than in females, and may serve the purpose of maximizing the possibility of detection by conspecifics, as well as reflect the height of the marking wolf. Only dominant wolves typically use RLU, with subordinate males continuing to use the juvenile standing posture throughout adulthood.[124] RLU is considered to be one of the most important forms of scent communication in the wolf, making up 60\u201380% of all scent marks observed.[126]\nGray wolf carrying caribou hindquarter, Denali National Park\nThe gray wolf is a habitat generalist, and can occur in deserts, grasslands, forests and arctic tundras. Habitat use by gray wolves is strongly correlated with the abundance of prey, snow conditions, absence or low livestock densities, road densities, human presence and topography.[4] In cold climates, the gray wolf can reduce the flow of blood near its skin to conserve body heat. The warmth of the footpads is regulated independently of the rest of the body, and is maintained at just above tissue-freezing point where the pads come in contact with ice and snow.[127] Gray wolves use different places for their diurnal rest: places with cover are preferred during cold, damp and windy weather, while wolves in dry, calm and warm weather readily rest in the open. During the autumn-spring period, when wolves are more active, they willingly lie out in the open, whatever their location. Actual dens are usually constructed for pups during the summer period. When building dens, females make use of natural shelters such as fissures in rocks, cliffs overhanging riverbanks and holes thickly covered by vegetation. Sometimes, the den is the appropriated burrow of smaller animals such as foxes, badgers or marmots. An appropriated den is often widened and partly remade. On rare occasions, female wolves dig burrows themselves, which are usually small and short with 1\u20133 openings. The den is usually constructed not more than 500 m (550 yd) away from a water source,[9] and typically faces southwards, thus ensuring enough sunlight exposure, keeping the denning area relatively snow free.[4] Resting places, play areas for the pups and food remains are commonly found around wolf dens. The odour of urine and rotting food emanating from the denning area often attracts scavenging birds such as magpies and ravens. As there are few convenient places for burrows, wolf dens are usually occupied by animals of the same family. Though they mostly avoid areas within human sight, wolves have been known to nest near domiciles, paved roads and railways.[9]\nA wolf by Jan Fyt, c. 1655\nGlobally, gray wolf diet is predominantly composed of large (240\u2013650 kg (530\u20131,430 lb)) and medium-sized (23\u2013130 kg (51\u2013287 lb)) wild ungulates, with local population variations due to the mix of wild ungulates, smaller prey and domestic species consumed.[128] All terrestrial mammalian social predators feed predominantly on terrestrial herbivorous mammals that have a body mass similar to that of the combined mass of the social group members.[129][130] The gray wolf generally specializes in preying on the vulnerable individuals of large prey,[4] with pack of timber wolves capable of bringing down a 500 kg (1,100 lb) moose.[53][131] Digestion only takes a few hours, thus wolves can feed several times in one day, making quick use of large quantities of meat.[132]\nAlthough wolves primarily feed on medium to large sized ungulates, they are not fussy eaters. Smaller sized animals that may supplement the diet of wolves include marmots, hares, badgers, foxes, weasels, ground squirrels, mice, hamsters, voles and other rodents, as well as insectivores. They frequently eat waterfowl and their eggs. When such foods are insufficient, they prey on lizards, snakes, frogs, rarely toads and large insects as available. In times of scarcity, wolves readily eat carrion, visiting cattle burial grounds and slaughter houses.[9] Cannibalism is not uncommon in wolves: during harsh winters, packs often attack weak or injured wolves, and may eat the bodies of dead pack members.[9][133][134] Wolf packs in Astrakhan hunt Caspian seals on the Caspian Sea coastline[135] and some wolf packs in Alaska and Western Canada have been observed to feed on salmon.[136] Wolves in northern Minnesota have also been observed hunting northern pike in freshwater streams.[137] Humans are rarely, but occasionally preyed upon.[9][24] Other primates occasionally taken by wolves include grey langurs in Nepal[138] and hamadryas baboons in Saudi Arabia.[139]\nIn Eurasia, many gray wolf populations are forced to subsist largely on livestock and garbage in areas with dense human activity, though wild ungulates such as moose, red deer, roe deer and wild boar are still the most important food sources in Russia and the more mountainous regions of Eastern Europe. Other prey species include reindeer, argali, mouflon, wisent, saiga, ibex, chamois, wild goats, fallow deer and musk deer.[140] The prey animals of North American wolves have largely continued to occupy suitable habitats with low human density, and cases of wolves subsisting largely on garbage or livestock are exceptional. Animals preferred as prey by North American wolves include moose, white-tailed deer, elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, Dall's sheep, American bison, muskox and caribou.[141]\nWolves supplement their diet with fruit and vegetable matter. They willingly eat the berries of mountain ash, lily of the valley, bilberries, blueberries and cowberry. Other fruits include nightshade, apples and pears. They readily visit melon fields during the summer months.[9] A well-fed wolf stores fat under the skin, around the heart, intestines, kidneys, and bone marrow, particularly during the autumn and winter.[112]\nEnemies and competitors\nGray wolves attacking brown bear with cubs\nGray wolves confronting coyotes over pronghorn carcass (1919), Louis Agassiz Fuertes\nGray wolves typically dominate other canid species in areas where they both occur. In North America, incidents of gray wolves killing coyotes are common, particularly in winter, when coyotes feed on wolf kills. Wolves may attack coyote den sites, digging out and killing their pups, though rarely eating them. There are no records of coyotes killing wolves, though coyotes may chase wolves if they outnumber them.[142][143] Near identical interactions have been observed in Eurasia between gray wolves and golden jackals, with the latter's numbers being comparatively small in areas with high wolf densities.[9][142][144] Gray wolves are the most important predator of raccoon dogs, killing large numbers of them in the spring and summer periods.[9] Wolves also kill red, arctic and corsac foxes, usually in disputes over carcasses, sometimes eating them.[9][145] In Asia, they may compete with dholes,[9] though there is at least one record of a lone wolf associating with a pair of dholes in Debrigarh Wildlife Sanctuary.[146]\nBrown bears typically dominate wolf packs in disputes over carcasses, while wolf packs mostly prevail against bears when defending their den sites. Both species kill each other's young. Wolves eat the brown bears they kill, while brown bears seem to only eat young wolves.[147] Wolf interactions with American black bears are much rarer than with brown bears, because of differences in habitat preferences. The majority of black bear encounters with wolves occur in the species' northern range, with no interactions being recorded in Mexico. Wolves have been recorded on numerous occasions to actively seek out black bears in their dens and kill them without eating them. Unlike brown bears, black bears frequently lose against wolves in disputes over kills.[148] While encounters with brown and black bears appear to be common, polar bears are rarely encountered by wolves, though there are two records of wolf packs killing polar bear cubs.[149] Wolves also kill the cubs of Asian black bears.[9]\nWolves may encounter striped hyenas in Israel, Central Asia and India, usually in disputes over carcasses. Striped hyenas feed extensively on wolf-killed carcasses in areas where the two species interact. One-to-one, hyenas dominate wolves, and may prey on them,[150] but wolf packs can drive off single or outnumbered hyenas.[151][152] However, there was a case of a female striped hyena dominating 12 Arabian wolves.[153] Two cases are known however from southern Israel, where wolves and striped hyenas associated closely with each other in an apparently amicable way.[154]\nLarge wolf populations limit the numbers of small to medium-sized felines. Wolves encounter cougars along portions of the Rocky Mountains and adjacent mountain ranges. Wolves and cougars typically avoid encountering each other by hunting on different elevations. In winter, however, when snow accumulation forces their prey into valleys, interactions between the two species become more likely. Wolves in packs usually dominate cougars and can steal kills. They have been reported killing mothers and their kittens.[155][156] Wolves hunt steppe cats, and may scavenge from snow leopard kills.[157][158] Wolves may also reduce Eurasian lynx populations. Wolves may kill lynxes by running them down, or killing them before they can escape into trees.[159] Similar reports of encounters between wolves and bobcats have been documented.[160]\nLeftovers of wolf kills are sometimes scavenged by wolverines. Wolverines usually wait until the wolves are done feeding, but have been known to drive away wolves from kills. However, there have been confirmed reports of wolf packs killing wolverines.[161]\nOther than humans, tigers appear to be the only serious predators of wolves.[9][17][18][19][157] Wolf and tiger interactions are well documented in Sikhote-Alin, where tigers depress wolf numbers, either to the point of localized extinction or to such low numbers as to make them a functionally insignificant component of the ecosystem. Wolves appear capable of escaping competitive exclusion from tigers only when human persecution decreases tiger numbers. Proven cases of tigers killing wolves are rare and attacks appear to be competitive rather than predatory in nature, with at least four proven records of tigers killing wolves without consuming them.[162]\nRange and conservation\nMain article: List of gray wolf populations by country\nSee also: History of wolves in Yellowstone, Wolves in Great Britain, and Wolves in Ireland\nThe gray wolf was once one of the world's most widely distributed mammals, living throughout the northern hemisphere north of 15\u00b0N latitude in North America and 12\u00b0N in India. However, deliberate human persecution has reduced the species' range to about one third, because of livestock predation and fear of attacks on humans. The species is now extinct in much of Western Europe, in Mexico and much of the United States. In modern times, the gray wolf occurs mostly in wilderness and remote areas, particularly in Canada, Alaska and northern USA, Europe, and Asia from about 75\u00b0N to 12\u00b0N. Wolf population declines have been arrested since the 1970s, and have fostered recolonization and reintroduction in parts of its former range, due to legal protection, changes in land-use and rural human population shifts to cities. Competition with humans for livestock and game species, concerns over the danger posed by wolves to people, and habitat fragmentation pose a continued threat to the species. Despite these threats, because of the gray wolf's relatively widespread range and stable population, it is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.[2]\nPolychrome cave painting of a gray wolf, Font-de-Gaume, France\nIn Europe, the oldest gray wolf remains were found in France and date to 400,000\u2013350,000 years ago.[163] Wolf populations strongly declined across Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries largely due to human persecution, and by the end of the Second World War they had been eradicated from all of Central Europe and almost all of Northern Europe.[164]\nThe extermination of Northern Europe's wolves first became an organized effort during the Middle Ages, and continued until the late 19th century. In England, wolf eradication was enforced by legislation, and the last wolf was killed in the early sixteenth century during the reign of Henry VII. Wolves lasted longer in Scotland, where they sheltered in vast tracts of forest, which were subsequently burned down. Wolves managed to survive in the forests of Braemar and Sutherland until 1684. The extirpation of wolves in Ireland followed a similar course, with the last wolf believed to have been killed in 1786.[165] A wolf bounty was introduced in Sweden in 1647, after the extermination of moose and reindeer forced wolves to feed on livestock. The Sami extirpated wolves in northern Sweden in organized drives. By 1960, few wolves remained in Sweden, because of the use of snowmobiles in hunting them, with the last specimen being killed in 1966. The gray wolf was exterminated in Denmark in 1772 and Norway's last wolf was killed in 1973. The species was decimated in 20th century Finland, despite regular dispersals from Russia. The gray wolf was only present in the eastern and northern parts of Finland by 1900, though its numbers increased after World War II.[166]\nIn Central Europe, wolves were dramatically reduced in number during the early nineteenth century, because of organized hunts and reductions in ungulate populations. In Bavaria, the last wolf was killed in 1847, and had disappeared from the Rhine regions by 1899.[166] In Switzerland, wolves were extinct in the twentieth century; they are naturally coming back from Italy since the 1990s.[167] In 1934, Nazi Germany became the first state in modern history to place the wolf under protection, though the species was already extirpated in Germany at this point.[168] The last free-living wolf to be killed on the soil of present-day Germany before 1945 was the so-called \"Tiger of Sabrodt\", which was shot near Hoyerswerda, Lusatia (then Lower Silesia) in 1904. Today, wolves have returned to the area.[169] Wolf hunting in France was first institutionalized by Charlemagne between 800\u2013813, when he established the louveterie, a special corps of wolf hunters. The louveterie was abolished after the French Revolution in 1789, but was re-established in 1814. In 1883, up to 1,386 wolves were killed, with many more by poison.[166]\nLast wolf to be killed in central Finland (Karstula, 1911)\nIn Eastern Europe, wolves were never fully exterminated, because of the area's contiguity with Asia and its large forested areas. However, Eastern European wolf populations were reduced to very low numbers by the late nineteenth century. Wolves were extirpated in Slovakia during the first decade of the twentieth century and, by the mid-twentieth century, could only be found in a few forested areas in eastern Poland. Wolves in the eastern Balkans benefitted from the region's contiguity with the former Soviet Union and large areas of plains, mountains and farmlands. Wolves in Hungary occurred in only half the country around the start of the 20th century, and were largely restricted to the Carpathian Basin. Wolf populations in Romania remained largely substantial, with an average of 2,800 wolves being killed annually out of a population of 4,600 from 1955\u20131965. An all-time low was reached in 1967, when the population was reduced to 1,550 animals. The extermination of wolves in Bulgaria was relatively recent, as a previous population of about 1,000 animals in 1955 was reduced to about 100\u2013200 in 1964. In Greece, the species disappeared from the southern Peloponnese in 1930. Despite periods of intense hunting during the eighteenth century, wolves never disappeared in the western Balkans, from Albania to the former Yugoslavia. Organized persecution of wolves began in Yugoslavia in 1923, with the setting up of the Wolf Extermination Committee (WEC) in Kocevje, Slovenia. The WEC was successful in reducing wolf numbers in the Dinaric Alps.[166]\nIn Southern Europe, wolf extermination was not as complete as in Northern Europe, because of greater cultural tolerance of the species. Wolf populations only began declining in the Iberian Peninsula in the early 19th-century, and was reduced by a half of its original size by 1900. Wolf bounties were regularly paid in Italy as late as 1950. Wolves were exterminated in the Alps by 1800, and numbered only 100 by 1973, inhabiting only 3\u20135% of their former Italian range.[166]\nPresent range of Canis lupus subspecies in Eurasia\nThe recovery of European wolf populations began after the 1950s, when traditional pastoral and rural economies declined and thus removed the need to heavily persecute wolves. By the 1980s, small and isolated wolf populations expanded in the wake of decreased human density in rural areas and the recovery of wild prey populations.[170]\nThe gray wolf has been fully protected in Italy since 1976, and now holds a population of over 1,269\u20131,800.[171] Italian wolves entered France's Mercantour National Park in 1993, and at least fifty wolves were discovered in the western Alps in 2000. By 2013 the 250 wolves in the Western Alps imposed a significant burden on traditional sheep and goat husbandry with a loss of over 5,000 animals in 2012.[172] There are approximately 2,000 wolves inhabiting the Iberian Peninsula, of which 150 reside in northeastern Portugal. In Spain, the species occurs in Galicia, Leon, and Asturias. Although hundreds of Iberian wolves are illegally killed annually, the population has expanded south across the river Duero and east to the Asturias and Pyrenees Mountains.[170]\nEuropean wolf in Bavarian Forest National Park, Germany\nIn 1978, wolves began recolonising central Sweden after a twelve-year absence, and have since expanded into southern Norway. As of 2005, the total number of Swedish and Norwegian wolves is estimated to be at least one hundred, including eleven breeding pairs. The gray wolf is fully protected in Sweden and partially controlled in Norway. The Scandinavian wolf populations owe their continued existence to neighbouring Finland's contiguity with the Republic of Karelia, which houses a large population of wolves. Wolves in Finland are protected only in the southern third of the country, and can be hunted in other areas during specific seasons,[170] though poaching remains common, with 90% of young wolf deaths being due to human predation, and the number of wolves killed exceeds the number of hunting licenses, in some areas by a factor of two. Furthermore, the decline in the moose populations has reduced the wolf's food supply.[173][174] Since 2011, the Netherlands, Belgium and Denmark have also reported wolf sightings presumably by natural migration from adjacent countries.[175][176] In 2016, a female wolf tracked 550 kilometers from a region southwest of Berlin to settle in Jutland, Denmark where male wolves had been reported in 2012 for the first time in 200 years.[177] Wolves have also commenced breeding in Lower Austria's Waldviertel region for the first time in over 130 years.[178]\nWolf populations in Poland have increased to about 800\u2013900 individuals since being classified as a game species in 1976. Poland plays a fundamental role in providing routes of expansion into neighbouring Central European countries. In the east, its range overlaps with populations in Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, and Slovakia. A population in western Poland expanded into eastern Germany and in 2000 the first pups were born on German territory.[179] In 2012, an estimated 14 wolf packs were living in Germany (mostly in the east and north) and a pack with pups has been sighted within 15 miles of Berlin;[180] the number increased to 46 packs in 2016.[181] The gray wolf is protected in Slovakia, though an exception is made for wolves killing livestock. A few Slovakian wolves disperse into the Czech Republic, where they are afforded full protection. Wolves in Slovakia, Ukraine and Croatia may disperse into Hungary, where the lack of cover hinders the buildup of an autonomous population. Although wolves have special status in Hungary, they may be hunted with a year-round permit if they cause problems.[170]\nRomania has a large population of wolves, numbering 2,500 animals. The wolf has been a protected animal in Romania since 1996, although the law is not enforced. The number of wolves in Albania and Macedonia is largely unknown, despite the importance the two countries have in linking wolf populations from Greece to those of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. Although protected, sometimes wolves are still illegally killed in Greece, and their future is uncertain. Wolf numbers have declined in Bosnia and Herzegovina since 1986, while the species is fully protected in neighbouring Croatia and Slovenia.[170]\nAlthough wolf-dog hybridization in Europe has raised concern among conservation groups fearing for the gray wolf's purity, genetic tests show that introgression of dog genes into European gray wolf populations does not pose a significant threat. Also, as wolf and dog mating seasons do not fully coincide, the likelihood of wild wolves and dogs mating and producing surviving offspring is small.[182]\nHistorical range and decline\nMonument to the last Japanese gray wolf, Nara Prefecture, Japan\nDuring the 19th century, gray wolves were widespread in many parts of the Holy Land east and west of the Jordan River. However, they decreased considerably in number between 1964 and 1980, largely because of persecution by farmers.[183] The species was not considered common in northern and central Saudi Arabia during the 19th century, with most early publications involving animals either from southwestern Asir, northern rocky areas bordering Jordan, or areas surrounding Riyadh.[184]\nThe gray wolf's range in the Soviet Union encompassed nearly the entire territory of the country, being absent only on the Solovetsky Islands, Franz-Josef Land, Severnaya Zemlya, and the Karagin, Commander and Shantar Islands. The species was exterminated twice in Crimea, once after the Russian Civil War, and again after World War II.[9] Following the two world wars, Soviet wolf populations peaked twice. 30,000 wolves were harvested annually out of a population of 200,000 during the 1940s, with 40,000\u201350,000 harvested during peak years. Soviet wolf populations reached a low around 1970, disappearing over much of European Russia. The population increased again by 1980 to about 75,000, with 32,000 being killed in 1979.[185] Wolf populations in northern inner Mongolia declined during the 1940s, primarily because of poaching of gazelles, the wolf's main prey.[186] In British-ruled India, wolves were heavily persecuted because of their attacks on sheep, goats and children. In 1876, 2,825 wolves were bountied in the North-Western Provinces (NWP) and Bihar. By the 1920s, wolf extermination remained a priority in the NWP and Awadh. Overall, over 100,000 wolves were killed for bounties in British India between 1871 and 1916.[187]\nWolves in Japan became extinct during the Meiji restoration period, an extermination known as \u014dkami no kujo. The wolf was deemed a threat to ranching, which the Meiji government promoted at the time, and targeted via a bounty system and a direct chemical extermination campaign inspired by the similar contemporary American campaign. The last Japanese wolf was a male killed on January 23, 1905 near Washikaguchi (now called Higashi Yoshiro).[188] The now extinct Japanese wolves were descended from large Siberian wolves, which colonized the Korean Peninsula and Japan, before it separated from mainland Asia, 20,000 years ago during the Pleistocene. During the Holocene, the Tsugaru Strait widened and isolated Honshu from Hokkaid\u014d, thus causing climatic changes leading to the extinction of most large bodied ungulates inhabiting the archipelago. Japanese wolves likely underwent a process of island dwarfism 7,000\u201313,000 years ago in response to these climatological and ecological pressures. C. l. hattai (formerly native to Hokkaid\u014d) was significantly larger than its southern cousin C. l. hodophilax, as it inhabited higher elevations and had access to larger prey, as well as a continuing genetic interaction with dispersing wolves from Siberia.[189]\nIndian Wolf at Velavadar (Blackbuck National Park, Gujarat)\nGray wolf near Ardahan, Turkey. Although Turkish wolves have no legal protection, they may number about 7000 individuals.[190]\nThere is little reliable data on the status of wolves in the Middle East, save for those in Israel and Saudi Arabia, though their numbers appear to be stable, and are likely to remain so. Israel's conservation policies and effective law enforcement maintain a moderately sized wolf population, which radiates into neighbouring countries, while Saudi Arabia has vast tracts of desert, where about 300\u2013600 wolves live undisturbed.[191] The wolf survives throughout most of its historical range in Saudi Arabia, probably because of a lack of pastoralism and abundant human waste.[184] Turkey may play an important role in maintaining wolves in the region, because of its contiguity with Central Asia. The mountains of Turkey have served as a refuge for the few wolves remaining in Syria. A small wolf population occurs in the Golan Heights, and is well protected by the military activities there. Wolves living in the southern Negev desert are contiguous with populations living in the Egyptian Sinai and Jordan. Throughout the Middle East, the species is only protected in Israel. Elsewhere, it can be hunted year-round by Bedouins.[191]\nLittle is known of current wolf populations in Iran, which once occurred throughout the country in low densities during the mid-1970s. The northern regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan are important strongholds for the wolf. It has been estimated that there are about 300 wolves in approximately 60,000 km2 (23,000 sq mi) of Jammu and Kashmir in northern India, and 50 more in Himachal Pradesh. Overall, India supports about 800-3,000 wolves, scattered among several remnant populations. Although protected since 1972, Indian wolves are classed as endangered, with many populations lingering in low numbers or living in areas increasingly used by humans. Although present in Nepal and Bhutan, there is no information of wolves occurring there.[185]\nWolf populations throughout Northern and Central Asia are largely unknown, but are estimated in the hundreds of thousands based on annual harvests. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, continent-wide extermination of wolves has ceased, and wolf populations have increased to about 25,000\u201330,000 animals throughout the former Soviet Union. In China and Mongolia, wolves are only protected in reserves. Mongolian populations have been estimated at 10,000\u201330,000, while the status of wolves in China is more fragmentary. The north has a declining population of an estimated 400 wolves, while Xinjiang and Tibet hold about 10,000 and 2,000 respectively.[192] In 2008, an authoritative reference stated that the gray wolf could be found across mainland China.[193] In 2017, a comprehensive study found that the gray wolf was present across all of mainland China, both in the past and today. It exists in southern China, which refutes claims made by some researchers in the Western world that the wolf had never existed in southern China.[194][195]\nHistorical and present range of gray wolf subspecies in North America[needs update]\n100 lb (45 kg) gray wolf killed in Montana, 1928. Before they were extirpated around 1930, Montana's wolves could be very large. Wolves recolonized the state from Canada beginning in the 1970s.\nOriginally, the gray wolf occupied all of North America north of about 20\u00b0N. It occurred all over the mainland, save for the southeastern United States, California west of the Sierra Nevada, and the tropical and subtropical areas of Mexico. Large continental islands occupied by wolves included Newfoundland, Vancouver Island, southeastern Alaskan islands, and throughout the Arctic Archipelago and Greenland.[4] While Lohr and Ballard postulated that the gray wolf had never been present on Prince Edward Island,[196][197]:392 analysis of references to the island's native fauna in unpublished and published historical records has found that gray wolves were resident there at the time of the first French settlement in 1720. In his November 6, 1721 letter to the French Minister of the Marine, Louis Denys de La Ronde reported that the island was home to wolves \"of a prodigious size\", and sent a wolf pelt back to France to substantiate his claim. As the island was cleared for settlement, the gray wolf population may have been extirpated, or relocated to the mainland across the winter ice: the few subsequent wolf reports date from the mid-nineteenth century and describe the creatures as transient visitors from across the Northumberland Strait.[197]:386\nThe decline of North American wolf populations coincided with increasing human populations and the expansion of agriculture. By the start of the 20th century, the species had almost disappeared from the eastern USA, excepting some areas of the Appalachians and the northwestern Great Lakes Region. In Canada, the gray wolf was extirpated in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia between 1870 and 1921, and in Newfoundland around 1911. It vanished from the southern regions of Quebec and Ontario between 1850 and 1900. The gray wolf's decline in the prairies began with the extermination of the American bison and other ungulates in the 1860s\u201370s. From 1900\u20131930, the gray wolf was virtually eliminated from the western USA and adjoining parts of Canada, because of intensive predator control programs aimed at eradicating the species. The gray wolf was exterminated by federal and state governments from all of the USA by 1960, except in Alaska and northern Minnesota. The decline in North American wolf populations was reversed from the 1930s to the early 1950s, particularly in southwestern Canada, because of expanding ungulate populations resulting from improved regulation of big game hunting. This increase triggered a resumption of wolf control in western and northern Canada. Thousands of wolves were killed from the early 1950s to the early 1960s, mostly by poisoning. This campaign was halted and wolf populations increased again by the mid-1970s.[4]\nCaptive Mexican gray wolf\nThe species' modern range in North America is mostly confined to Alaska and Canada, with populations also occurring in northern Minnesota, northern and central Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, and small portions of Washington, Idaho, northern Oregon, and Montana. A functional wolf population should exist in California by 2024 according to estimates by state wildlife officials.[198] Canadian wolves began to naturally re-colonize northern Montana around Glacier National Park in 1979, and the first wolf den in the western U.S. in over half a century was documented there in 1986.[199] The wolf population in northwest Montana initially grew as a result of natural reproduction and dispersal to about 48 wolves by the end of 1994.[200] From 1995\u20131996, wolves from Alberta and British Columbia were relocated to Yellowstone National Park and Idaho. In addition, the Mexican wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) was reintroduced to Arizona and New Mexico in 1998. The gray wolf is found in approximately 80% of its historical range in Canada, thus making it an important stronghold for the species.[4]\nCanada is home to about 52,000\u201360,000 wolves, whose legal status varies according to province and territory. First Nations residents may hunt wolves without restriction, and some provinces require licenses for residents to hunt wolves while others do not. In Alberta, wolves on private land may be baited and hunted by the landowner without requiring a license, and in some areas, wolf hunting bounty programs exist.[201][202] Large-scale wolf population control through poisoning, trapping and aerial hunting is also presently conducted by government-mandated programs in order to support populations of endangered prey species such as woodland caribou.[203]\nIn Alaska, the gray wolf population is estimated at 6,000\u20137,000, and can be legally harvested during hunting and trapping seasons, with bag limits and other restrictions. As of 2002, there are 250 wolves in 28 packs in Yellowstone, and 260 wolves in 25 packs in Idaho. The gray wolf received Endangered Species Act (ESA) protection in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan in 1974, and was re-classed from endangered to threatened in 2003. Reintroduced Mexican wolves in Arizona and New Mexico are protected under the ESA and, as of late 2002, number 28 individuals in eight packs.[204] A female wolf shot in 2013 in Hart County, Kentucky by a hunter was the first gray wolf seen in Kentucky in modern times. DNA analysis by Fish and Wildlife laboratories showed genetic characteristics similar to those of wolves in the Great Lakes Region.[205]\nFootage of a gray wolf taken from Abruzzo Natural Park showing advanced signs of canine distemper\nViral diseases carried by wolves include rabies, canine distemper, canine parvovirus, infectious canine hepatitis, papillomatosis, canine coronavirus,[206] and foot and mouth disease.[207] Wolves are a major host for rabies in Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq and India.[207] In wolves, the incubation period is 8\u201321 days, and results in the host becoming agitated, deserting its pack, and travelling up to 80 kilometres (50 mi) a day, thus increasing the risk of infecting other wolves. Infected wolves do not show any fear of humans, with most documented wolf attacks on people being attributed to rabid animals. Although canine distemper is lethal in dogs, it has not been recorded to kill wolves, except in Canada and Alaska. The canine parvovirus, which causes death by dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and endotoxic shock or sepsis, is largely survivable in wolves, but can be lethal to pups. Wolves may catch infectious canine hepatitis from dogs, though there are no records of wolves dying from it. Papillomatosis has been recorded only once in wolves, and likely doesn't cause serious illness or death, though it may alter feeding behaviors. The canine coronavirus has been recorded in Alaskan wolves, with infections being most prevalent in winter months.[206]\nBacterial diseases carried by wolves include brucellosis, lyme disease, leptospirosis, tularemia, bovine tuberculosis,[208] listeriosis and anthrax.[207] Wolves can catch Brucella suis from wild and domestic reindeer. While adult wolves tend not to show any clinical signs, it can severely weaken the pups of infected females. Although lyme disease can debilitate individual wolves, it does not appear to have any significant effect on wolf populations. Leptospirosis can be contracted through contact with infected prey or urine, and can cause fever, anorexia, vomiting, anemia, hematuria, icterus, and death. Wolves living near farms are more vulnerable to the disease than those living in the wilderness, probably because of prolonged contact with infected domestic animal waste. Wolves may catch tularemia from lagomorph prey, though its effect on wolves is unknown. Although bovine tuberculosis is not considered a major threat to wolves, it has been recorded to have once killed two wolf pups in Canada.[208]\nWolves carry ectoparasites and endoparasites, with wolves in the former Soviet Union having been recorded to carry at least 50 species.[207] Most of these parasites infect wolves without adverse effects, though the effects may become more serious in sick or malnourished specimens.[209] Parasitic infection in wolves is of particular concern to people, as wolves can spread them to dogs, which in turn can carry the parasites to humans. In areas where wolves inhabit pastoral areas, the parasites can be spread to livestock.[207]\nWolves are often infested with a variety of arthropod exoparasites, including fleas, ticks, lice, and mites. The most harmful to wolves, particularly pups, is Sarcoptes scabiei (or mange mite),[209] though they rarely develop full blown mange, unlike foxes.[9] Lice, such as Trichodectes canis, may cause sickness in wolves, but rarely death. Ticks of the genus Ixodes can infect wolves with Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever.[209] The tick Dermacentor pictus also infests wolves. Other ectoparasites include biting lice, sucking lice and the fleas Pulex irritans and Ctenocephalides canis.[9]\nEndoparasites known to infect wolves include protozoans and helminths (flukes, tapeworms, roundworms and thorny-headed worms). Of 30,000 protozoan species, only a few have been recorded to infect wolves: Isospora, Toxoplasma, Sarcocystis, Babesia, and Giardia.[209] Wolves may carry Neospora caninum, which is of particular concern to farmers, as the disease can be spread to livestock, with infected animals being 3\u201313 times more likely to miscarry than those not infected.[210][211] Among flukes, the most common in North American wolves is Alaria, which infects small rodents and amphibians that are eaten by wolves. Upon reaching maturity, Alaria migrates to the wolf's intestine, but harms it little. Metorchis conjunctus, which enters wolves through eating fish, infects the wolf's liver or gall bladder, causing liver disease, inflammation of the pancreas, and emaciation. Most other fluke species reside in the wolf's intestine, though Paragonimus westermani lives in the lungs. Tapeworms are commonly found in wolves, as their primary hosts are ungulates, small mammals, and fish, which wolves feed upon. Tapeworms generally cause little harm in wolves, though this depends on the number and size of the parasites, and the sensitivity of the host. Symptoms often include constipation, toxic and allergic reactions, irritation of the intestinal mucosa, and malnutrition. Infections by the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus in ungulate populations tend to increase in areas with high wolf densities, as wolves can shed Echinoccocus eggs in their feces onto grazing areas. Wolves can carry over 30 roundworm species, though most roundworm infections appear benign, depending on the number of worms and the age of the host. Ancylostoma caninum attaches itself on the intestinal wall to feed on the host's blood, and can cause hyperchromic anemia, emaciation, diarrhea, and possibly death. Toxocara canis, a hookworm known to infect wolf pups in utero, can cause intestinal irritation, bloating, vomiting, and diarrhea. Wolves may catch Dioctophyma renale from minks, which infects the kidneys, and can grow to lengths of 100 cm. D. renale causes the complete destruction of the kidney's functional tissue, and can be fatal if both kidneys are infected. Wolves can tolerate low levels of Dirofilaria immitis for many years without showing any ill effects, though high levels can kill wolves through cardiac enlargement and congestive hepatopathy. Wolves probably become infected with Trichinella spiralis by eating infected ungulates. Although T. spiralis isn't known to produce clinical signs in wolves, it can cause emaciation, salivation, and crippling muscle pains in dogs.[209] Thorny-headed worms rarely infect wolves, though three species have been identified in Russian wolves: Nicolla skrjabini, Macrocantorhynchus catulinus, and Moniliformis moniliformis.[209]\nHuman presence appears to stress wolves, as seen by increased cortisol levels in instances such as snowmobiling near their territory.[212]\nIn personal names\nOld English literature contains several instances of Anglo-Saxon kings and warriors taking on wulf as a prefix or suffix in their names. Examples include Wulfhere, Cynewulf, Ceonwulf, Wulfheard, Earnwulf, Wulfm\u01e3r, Wulfst\u0101n and \u00c6thelwulf. Wolf-related names were also common among pre-Christian Germanic warriors: Wolfhroc (Wolf-Frock), Wolfhetan (Wolf Hide), Isangrim (Grey Mask), Scrutolf (Garb Wolf), Wolfgang (Wolf Gait) and Wolfdregil (Wolf Runner).[213]\nAncient Greek literature is similar: Autolycus (\"the wolf itself\"), Lycurgus (\"wolf-work\")[citation needed].\nThe Latin for \"female prostitute\" is lupa, and the most famous brothel in Pompeii was the Lupanar.[citation needed]\nIn folklore, religion and mythology\nMain article: Wolves in folklore, religion and mythology\nCapitoline Wolf, sculpture of the mythical she-wolf feeding the twins Romulus and Remus, from the legend of the founding of Rome, Italy.\nThe wolf is a common motif in the foundational mythologies and cosmologies of peoples throughout Eurasia and North America (corresponding to the historical extent of the habitat of the gray wolf). The obvious attribute of the wolf is its nature of a predator, and correspondingly it is strongly associated with danger and destruction, making it the symbol of the warrior on one hand, and that of the devil on the other. The modern trope of the Big Bad Wolf is a development of this. The wolf holds great importance in the cultures and religions of the nomadic peoples, both of the Eurasian steppe and of the North American Plains. In many cultures, the identification of the warrior with the wolf (totemism) gave rise to the notion of Lycanthropy, the mythical or ritual identification of man and wolf.\nIn fable and literature\nLittle Red Riding Hood (1883), Gustave Dor\u00e9\nAesop featured wolves in several of his fables, playing on the concerns of Ancient Greece's settled, sheep-herding world. His most famous is the fable of The Boy Who Cried Wolf, which is directed at those who knowingly raise false alarms, and from which the idiomatic phrase \"to cry wolf\" is derived. Some of his other fables concentrate on maintaining the trust between shepherds and guard dogs in their vigilance against wolves, as well as anxieties over the close relationship between wolves and dogs. Although Aesop used wolves to warn, criticize and moralize about human behavior, his portrayals added to the wolf's image as a deceitful and dangerous animal.[214] Isengrim the wolf, a character first appearing in the 12th-century Latin poem Ysengrimus, is a major character in the Reynard Cycle, where he stands for the low nobility, whilst his adversary, Reynard the fox, represents the peasant hero. Although portrayed as loyal, honest and moral, Isengrim is forever the victim of Reynard's wit and cruelty, often dying at the end of each story.[215]\nThe tale of Little Red Riding Hood, first written in 1697 by Charles Perrault, is largely considered to have had more influence than any other source of literature in forging the wolf's negative reputation in the western world. The wolf in this story is portrayed as a potential rapist, capable of imitating human speech.[216] The hunting of wolves, and their attacks on humans and livestock feature prominently in Russian literature, and are included in the works of Tolstoy, Chekhov, Nekrasov, Bunin, Sabaneyev, and others. Tolstoy's War and Peace and Chekhov's Peasants both feature scenes in which wolves are hunted with hounds and borzois.[217] Farley Mowat's largely fictional 1963 memoir Never Cry Wolf was the first positive portrayal of wolves in popular literature, and is largely considered to be the most popular book on wolves, having been adapted into a Hollywood film and taught in several schools decades after its publication. Although credited with having changed popular perceptions on wolves by portraying them as loving, cooperative and noble, it has been criticized for its idealization of wolves and its factual inaccuracies.[218][219][220]\nIn heraldry and symbolism\nMain article: Wolves in heraldry\nCoat of arms of the Elvange family, featuring a wolf charge rampant\nThe wolf is a frequent charge in English armory. It is illustrated as a supporter on the shields of Lord Welby, Rendel, and Viscount Wolseley, and can be found on the coat of arms of Lovett and the vast majority of the Wilsons and Lows. The demi-wolf is a common crest, appearing in the arms and crests of members of many families, including that of the Wolfes, whose crest depicts a demi-wolf holding a crown in its paws, in reference to the assistance the family gave to Charles II during the battle of Worcester. Wolf heads are common in Scottish heraldry, particularly in the coats of Clan Robertson and Skene. The wolf is the most common animal in Spanish heraldry, and is often depicted as carrying a lamb in its mouth, or across its back.[221] The wolf is featured on the flags of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin and the Pawnee.[222] In modern times, the wolf is widely used as an emblem for military and paramilitary groups. It is the unofficial symbol of the spetsnaz, and serves as the logo of the Turkish Grey Wolves. During the Yugoslav Wars, several Serb paramilitary units adopted the wolf as their symbol, including the White Wolves and the Wolves of Vu\u010djak.[223]\nWaiting for a Chinook (c. 1900), Charles Marion Russell\nWolf predation on livestock\nLivestock depredation has been one of the primary reasons for hunting wolves, and can pose a severe problem for wolf conservation: as well as causing economic losses, the threat of wolf predation causes great stress on livestock producers, and no foolproof solution of preventing such attacks short of exterminating wolves has been found.[224] Some nations help offset economic losses to wolves through compensation programmes or state insurance.[225] Domesticated animals are easy prey for wolves, as they have evolved under constant human protection, and are thus unable to defend themselves very well.[226] Wolves typically resort to attacking livestock when wild prey is depleted: in Eurasia, a large part of the diet of some wolf populations consists of livestock, while such incidents are rare in North America, where healthy populations of wild prey have been largely restored.[224] The majority of losses occur during the summer grazing period, with untended livestock in remote pastures being the most vulnerable to wolf predation.[227] The most frequently targeted livestock species are sheep (Europe), domestic reindeer (northern Scandinavia), goats (India), horses (Mongolia), cattle and turkeys (North America).[224] The number of animals killed in single attacks varies according to species: most attacks on cattle and horses result in one death, while turkeys, sheep and domestic reindeer may be killed in surplus.[228] Wolves mainly attack livestock when the animals are grazing, though they occasionally break into fenced enclosures.[105] In some cases, wolves do not need to physically attack livestock to negatively affect it: the stress livestock experiences in being vigilant for wolves may result in miscarriages, weight loss and a decrease in meat quality.[210]\nConflicts with dogs\nBeing the most abundant carnivores, free-ranging dogs have the greatest potential to compete with wolves. A review of the studies in the competitive effects of dogs on sympatric carnivores did not mention any research on competition between dogs and wolves.[229][230] Competition would favor the wolf, which is known to kill dogs, however wolves tend to live in pairs or in small packs in areas where they are highly persecuted, giving them a disadvantage facing large groups of dogs.[230][231]\nWolves kill dogs on occasion, with some wolf populations relying on dogs as an important food source.[224] In Croatia, wolves kill more dogs than sheep, and wolves in Russia appear to limit stray dog populations. Wolves may display unusually bold behavior when attacking dogs accompanied by people, sometimes ignoring nearby humans.[224] Wolf attacks on dogs may occur both in house yards and in forests.[232] Wolf attacks on hunting dogs are considered a major problem in Scandinavia and Wisconsin.[224][232] The most frequently killed hunting breeds in Scandinavia are harriers, with older animals being most at risk, likely because they are less timid than younger animals, and react to the presence of wolves differently. Large hunting dogs such as Swedish elkhounds are more likely to survive wolf attacks because of their better ability to defend themselves.[232]\nAlthough the numbers of dogs killed each year are relatively low, it induces a fear of wolves entering villages and farmyards to take dogs. In many cultures, there are strong social and emotional bonds between humans and their dogs that can be seen as family members or working team members. The loss of a dog can lead to strong emotional responses with demands for more liberal wolf hunting regulations.[230]\nDogs that are employed to guard sheep help to mitigate human\u2013wolf conflicts, and are often proposed as one of the non-lethal tools in the conservation of wolves.[230][233] Shepherd dogs are not particularly aggressive, but they can disrupt potential wolf predation by displaying what is to the wolf ambiguous behaviors, such as barking, social greeting, invitation to play or aggression.[230][234] The historical use of shepherd dogs across Eurasia has been effective against wolf predation,[230][234] especially when confining sheep in the presence of several livestock-guarding dogs.[230][235] However, shepherd dogs are sometimes killed by wolves.[230][236]\nWolf predation on humans\nMain articles: Wolf attacks on humans and List of wolf attacks\nChild snatched by a wolf (1914), Le Petit Journal\nThe fear of wolves has been pervasive in many societies, though humans are not part of the wolf's natural prey.[24] How wolves react to humans depends largely on their prior experience with people: wolves lacking any negative experience of humans, or which are food-conditioned, may show little fear of people.[237] Although wolves may react aggressively under provocation, such attacks are mostly limited to quick bites on extremities, and the attacks are not pressed. Predatory attacks (attacks by wolves treating humans as food) may be preceded by a long period of habituation, in which wolves gradually lose their fear of humans. The victims are repeatedly bitten on the head and face, and are then dragged off and consumed, unless the wolves are driven off. Such attacks typically occur only locally, and do not stop until the wolves involved are eliminated. Predatory attacks can occur at any time of the year, with a peak in the June\u2013August period, when the chances of people entering forested areas (for livestock grazing or berry and mushroom picking) increase,[24] though cases of non-rabid wolf attacks in winter have been recorded in Belarus, Kirov and Irkutsk oblasts, Karelia and Ukraine.[9] Also, wolves with pups experience greater food stresses during this period.[9]\nThe majority of victims of predatory wolf attacks are children under the age of 18 and, in the rare cases where adults are killed, the victims are almost always women. Cases of rabid wolves are low when compared to other species, as wolves do not serve as primary reservoirs of the disease, but can be infected by animals such as dogs, jackals and foxes. Incidents of rabies in wolves are very rare in North America, though numerous in the eastern Mediterranean, Middle East and Central Asia. Wolves apparently develop the \"furious\" phase of rabies to a very high degree which, coupled with their size and strength, makes rabid wolves perhaps the most dangerous of rabid animals,[24] with bites from rabid wolves being 15 times more dangerous than those of rabid dogs.[9] Rabid wolves usually act alone, travelling large distances and often biting large numbers of people and domestic animals. Most rabid wolf attacks occur in the spring and autumn periods. Unlike with predatory attacks, the victims of rabid wolves are not eaten, and the attacks generally only occur on a single day. The victims are chosen at random, though the majority of cases involve adult men. During the 50 years to 2002, there were eight fatal attacks in Europe and Russia, and more than 200 in south Asia.[24] Between 2005\u20132010, two people were killed in North America.[238][239]\nHuman predation on wolves\nMain articles: Wolf hunting and Wolf hunting with dogs\nCarcasses of hunted wolves in Russia\nWolves are difficult to hunt because of their elusiveness, sharp senses, high endurance, and ability to quickly incapacitate and kill hunting dogs.[240] Historic methods include killing of spring-born litters in their dens, coursing with dogs (usually combinations of sighthounds, bloodhounds and fox terriers), poisoning with strychnine, and trapping.[241][242][243] A popular method of wolf hunting in Russia involves trapping a pack within a small area by encircling it with fladry poles carrying a human scent. This method relies heavily on the wolf's fear of human scents, though it can lose its effectiveness when wolves become accustomed to the smell.[243] Some hunters are able to lure wolves by imitating their calls.[243] In Kazakhstan and Mongolia, wolves are traditionally hunted with eagles and falcons, though this practise is declining, as experienced falconers are becoming few in number.[243] Shooting wolves from aircraft is highly effective, due to increased visibility and direct lines of fire,[243] but is controversial.[244] Several types of dog, including like the Borzoi, Irish wolfhound, and Kyrgyz Tajgan, have been specifically bred for wolf hunting.[230]\nSee also: Human uses of hunted wolves\nAs pets and working animals\nMain article: Wolves as pets and working animals\nGray wolves and coyotes used as draught animals in northern Ontario, 1923\nWild wolves are sometimes kept as exotic pets and, in some rarer occasions, as working animals. Although closely related to domesticated dogs, wolves do not show the same tractability as dogs in living alongside humans, and generally, much more work is required in order to obtain the same amount of reliability. Wolves also need much more space than dogs, about 26\u201339 square kilometres (10\u201315 sq mi), so they can exercise.[245]\nCuster wolf\nOR-7, a gray wolf being electronically tracked in the northwest United States\n^ The species Canis lupus also includes the domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) and the dingo (Canis lupus dingo), both of which are regarded as man-made variants. However, neither dogs nor dingoes are referred to as gray wolves. Throughout this article, the term \"wolf\" will be used to refer collectively to naturally occurring subspecies, especially the nominate subspecies, Canis lupus lupus.\n^ In the past, the prevailing view on gray wolf packs was that they consisted of individuals vying with each other for dominance, with dominant gray wolves being referred to as the \"alpha\" male and female, and the subordinates as \"beta\" and \"omega\" wolves. This terminology was first used in 1947 by Rudolf Schenkel of the University of Basel, who based his findings on researching the behavior of captive gray wolves. This view on gray wolf pack dynamics was later popularized by L. David Mech in his 1970 book The Wolf. He formally disavowed this terminology in 1999, explaining that it was heavily based on the behavior of captive packs consisting of unrelated individuals, an error reflecting the once prevailing view that wild pack formation occurred in winter among independent gray wolves. Later research on wild gray wolves revealed that the pack is usually a family consisting of a breeding pair and its offspring of the previous 1\u20133 years.[73]\n^ Tedford, Richard H.; Wang, Xiaoming; Taylor, Beryl E.

        "raw_content": "Emil Bjornson, Linkoping University\nMassive MIMO is an antenna technology that is considered the most promising for future superfast 5G networks, although researchers have until now believed that there is an upper limit for how much data can be transferred. Emil Bj\u00f6rnson, associate professor at Link\u00f6ping University, has together with colleagues, shown that there is no such limit.\n\u201cWe can show that massive MIMO has unlimited capacity, both mathematically and with the aid of simulations,\u201d says Emil Bj\u00f6rnson, associate professor in communication systems at Link\u00f6ping University.\nThe massive MIMO technology aroused the interest of 5G researchers at an early stage. However, during the past five to ten years the research community has agreed that there is an upper limit to how much data can be transferred wirelessly per second, given a certain bandwidth and within a certain area. The limiting factor has been a type of disturbance that arises when measuring how the wireless signals travel, known by researchers as \u201cpilot contamination\u201d.\n\u201cThis conclusion is the result of us using a model that was far too focused on reseach tractability and a method that was too simple,\u201d says Emil Bj\u00f6rnson.\nBy deploying more antennas and processing the signals that are transmitted and received from them in the right way, we can create a system in which there is no upper limit for how much data can be transferred.\nHe has presented the evidence for this in collaboration with colleagues in France and Italy in an article that has been published both in the open service Arxiv and in the IEEE digital service Xplore. The simulation code is also freely available at Github for anyone who doubts the results and wants to validate them.\nMIMO is an acronym for \u201cMultiple Input, Multiple Output\u201d and the technology involves connecting hundreds of small antennas, each with a power of around 10 mW, either in something that can resemble a large computer monitor or distributed across the fa\u00e7ade of a building.\nAll the antennas send a few tens of signals with carefully determined delays. The delays are chosen so that the copies of a signal arrive at the intended receivers at exactly the same instant, but at slightly different times at all other receivers. This gives a strong signal at the intended receiver and only a slight disturbance at all the others. Pilot contamination arises when the delays are to be estimated using signals known as \u201cpilots\u201d.\nOne hundred antennas each of 10 mW gives a power of 1 W, which is distributed among the users. This is considerably less than the 40 W that current antennas use. The low power is enough, since each signal is given in a specified direction. Massive MIMO thus provides a combination of low output power, high energy efficiency and superior capacity, since many receivers can receive signals at the same time. What the new calculations and simulations have shown is that the capacity is infinite.\n\u201cThe consequence is that we can continue to deploy increasing numbers of antennas, as people consume ever increasing amounts of wireless data, and in this way satisfy the demand,\u201d says Emil Bj\u00f6rnson.\nEmil Bjornson et al.

        "raw_content": "Hazrat Inayat Khan on the mystery of body and spirit\nHafiz, our great and wonderful poet of Persia, says: \u201cMany say that life entered the human body by the help of music, but the truth is that life itself is music.\u201d I should like to tell you what made him say this. There exists in the East a legend which relates that God made a statue of clay in His own image, and asked the soul to enter into it. But the soul refused to enter into this prison, for its nature is to fly about freely, and not be limited and bound to any sort of captivity. The soul did not wish in the least to enter this prison. Then God asked the angels to play their music and, as the angels played, the soul was moved to ecstasy. Through that ecstasy\u2014in order to make this music more clear to itself\u2014it entered this body.\nIt is a beautiful legend, and much more so is its mystery. The interpretation of this legend explains to us two great laws. One is that freedom is the nature of the soul, and for the soul the whole tragedy of life is the absence of that freedom which belongs to its original nature. The next mystery that this legend reveals to us is that the only reason why the soul has entered the body of clay or matter is to experience the music of life, and to make this music clear to itself. And when we sum up these two great mysteries, the third mystery, which is the mystery of all mysteries, comes to our mind: that the unlimited part of ourselves becomes limited and earthbound for the purpose of making this life, which is the outward life, more intelligible. Therefore there is one loss and one gain. The loss is the loss of freedom, and the gain is the experience of life which is fully gained by coming to this limitation of life which we call the life of an individual.\n\u2014 Hazrat Inayat Khan in The Mysticism of Sound and Music, (Boston: Shambhala, 1996), p. 11.

Geeta is now on the trail of her enemy, determined to take her daughter back and bring death and havoc to the lives of those who have done this to her. Her search has led her to Void City.\nA strong, individualistic woman, she is well trained in kickboxing and martial arts, preferring to use her hands and feet to fight, but also very proficient with a number of weapons. She never shies away from confrontation, but also knows how to win with subtlety, using her wits and beauty to her advantage.\nHer daughter's name is Star, which is why she always wears the t shirt with a star graphic on it, as a constant reminder of who she is fighting for.\nSoon after entering Void City, she followed her first lead to a local arms dealer, where she also encountered Jessie Valley, a vigilante who was there to apprehend the same. After an emotional conflict, she got one name: Markus, who allegedly facilitated the Kidnapping.\nMarkus turned out to be a trader who dealt with dangerous materials. Geeta crossed paths with Hugen Das, an inter-dimensional magician, who helped her take down the unstable Markus. With Hugen's help she discovered that her daughter is still alive, although she still has a long way to go.\nAfter a year of searching, she was contacted by Jessie Valley once again, who introduced her to Paavo Lawson, a werewolf who used his heightened sense of smell to find Geeta's daughter.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb News \u00bb An Allegiance to the Tropics: New Mentor, Researcher Takes Lead at TRI\nAn Allegiance to the Tropics: New\nMentor, Researcher Takes Lead at TRI\nThis summer, Simon Queenborough took over leadership as Musser Director of the Tropical Resources Institute (TRI), where he will manage one of the School\u2019s most far-reaching and accomplished programs, and mentor the master\u2019s and doctoral students in the Institute\u2019s successful Fellowship program. He will also serve as a lecturer and research scientist at F&ES.\nQueenborough, who comes to F&ES from Ohio State University, has studied the ecology of plants in tropical systems, especially the biodiverse forests of the Amazonian Ecuador. He also has extensive field experience working with native peoples, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration with sociologists, economics, physicists, and farmers.\nIn an interview, he describes what drew him into the field of tropical forestry, the greatest challenges facing the planet\u2019s tropical areas, and how TRI can make a difference.\nWhat attracted you to the field of tropical forestry?\nI started life as an avid birder, was given my first binoculars at age 6, and went up to Cambridge University intending to study penguins in Antarctica. However, after some inspiring and eye-opening (and heavily-bearded) lecturers in the botany department and summer expeditions to South Africa and Panama, I switched allegiance to plants. They are easier to find than animals, don\u2019t run away or squeal when tagged, and offer a wholly different worldview for thinking about some of the most complex questions in biology.\nI sought further training opportunities with exciting and inspiring teachers \u2014 Edinburgh, one of the great botanical gardens, followed by Aberdeen, one of the most northerly universities in the UK. I think you find more tropical scientists the farther north you go! Most of the researchers I admire had spent long periods in the field, so I followed their example, with a summer working in Belize, several years in Ecuador (and establishing a long-term continuing project), followed by a combination of rigorous quantitative training and more fieldwork for two post-docs.\nBeing Director of TRI is the perfect combination of my research and teaching interests. As an assistant professor at The Ohio State University, I found teaching undergraduates and mentoring graduate students tremendously rewarding. In F&ES, having the opportunity to mentor students through the entire research process, from idea, to grant proposal, to published manuscript, is exciting and I am very much looking forward to meeting the returning TRI Fellows and encouraging new ones in the autumn.\nWhat has been your major focus of study?\nMost of my work focuses on how individuals, species, and communities (including humans) interact over ecological and evolutionary time. Over the past 15 years, I have spent long periods in the field in Latin America and Europe, carrying out long-term research on plant population dynamics in old-growth tropical forests and managed arable farming communities. My current research interests include understanding mechanisms of diversity, breeding systems and resource allocation, and quantitative methods in population dynamics. My current teaching interests include tropical field courses, statistical analyses in the software R, and the graphical presentation of data.\nWhat do you see as the greatest threats facing the world\u2019s tropical forests, particularly in the Amazonian Ecuador? And what are the best hopes for protecting them?\nThe situation in Ecuador is extremely complex with many competing interests, as I am sure F&ES faculty and students are all too well aware. Ecuador has a number of large and very diverse national parks. My main field site, in Yasuni National Park, is among the most diverse places on the planet. Most of the indirect threats to these forests come from illegal logging, and petroleum exploration and exploitation.\nWhile the technology to extract petroleum in an environmentally low-impact manner is available, it is expensive, and so access roads remain the default option, opening the way for local people to move in along them and settle, cutting forest to grow crops. (Many of the soils of Ecuador are extremely fertile, a result of volcanic ash blowing down from the Andes). On the western slopes of the Andes, very little humid forest remains \u2014 only small pockets amidst banana and cacao plantations.\nThe indigenous population in Amazonian Ecuador adds several other hues to the picture: on their land, they can do as they wish, often leading to localized over-hunting around settlements; however, several groups remain uncontacted and violently repel outsiders, leading to official \u201cintangible zones\u201d that have never been visited by anyone else and are purposefully left so. In such wilderness areas as this, it is theoretically possible to maintain relatively pristine environments if the reserve is large enough and settlers are excluded.\nIn other parks in more developed areas with easier access, the coexistence of reserve and people is obviously more of an issue. Recently, the ambitious Yasuni-ITT Initiative to compensate Ecuador for leaving petroleum in the ground sadly failed to gain enough support.\nWhat role can TRI play in protecting these critical regions?\nScientists requesting permits, visiting, and working in these areas shows governments that there are other active interests besides national economies and GDP. While in some senses, the biological questions of reserves are easy \u2014 protect as large an area as possible connected with as many other large areas as possible \u2014 many questions still remain, in terms of how populations persist and how large they need to be. Further, fundamental questions do remain, such as how many species there are \u2014 we are not even sure what we share the planet with.\nApart from primary forest, secondary forest is increasing in many parts of the world as more people move to cities and fields are abandoned: does this forest ever return to its primary state, and does it have to? The role of a multi-disciplinary institute such as TRI, and F&ES more generally, is key in not only answering the questions of how the biology works, but also the knotty problem of how the biology interacts and can coexist with humans over the long-term, because many of the solutions to biological problems are social and political.\nDo you have any specific goals for TRI?\nThe mission of TRU is to support interdisciplinary, problem-oriented student research on the most complex challenges confronting the conservation and management of tropical environments and natural resources worldwide. The 30th anniversary of TRI and the influx of new faculty in F&ES studying tropical forests is the perfect time to raise the profile of TRI, and seek to expand our funding of students and other activities.\nAre there new things you\u2019d like to try? New partnerships you'd like to explore?\nWe will be thinking how we can expand the \u201cresources\u201d part of our name to develop wider educational opportunities for a broader student base, as well as other resources that are useful to students and workers in tropical countries. This is going to be an exciting year for TRI and F&ES, so watch this space!",

Oxford Journal of Law and Religion, 4 (1). pp. 57-74. ISSN 2047-0789\nIdentification Number: 10.1093/ojlr/rwu065\nOver the past 20 years the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has evolved into a conspicuous, often contentious, force in the multilevel battles over the place of religion in the European public sphere. In the light of scholarly debates, questioning the direct effects of courts on the issues they address, this article explores how the nature and extent of European juridical influence on religious pluralism are better understood through developments taking place \u2018in the shadow\u2019 of the Court. Specifically, what is the aftermath of the Court\u2019s religion jurisprudence in terms of its applications at the grassroots level? And how might legal and political elites operating at the national and international levels influence the Court\u2019s engagement with religion? These questions are important because ECtHR case law will shape, to a large extent, both local and national case law and\u2014less conspicuously but no less importantly\u2014grassroots-level developments in the promotion of or resistance to religious pluralism, which will, in turn, influence the future of the ECtHR caseload.\nhttps://academic.oup.com/ojlr",

Food Price Inflation and a Possible PBOC Policy Shock:\u201d\nFirst, at the same time that pork prices have driven August CPI growth to 6.5%, China has also been ravaged by unusually harsh floods in the south and droughts in the north. As a result, the autumn harvest, which comprises around 70% of total annual grain output, could produce a significant negative surprise, accelerating the rapid rise in food prices. At the same time, global food prices and futures continue to trend higher based on a series of bad harvests around the world, just as China may need to increase imports to supplement its own supplies. Secondly, signs of weakness in the housing sector spilling over into U.S. consumption are developing, and this could have consequences for China\u2019s exports, which have been a critical engine of China\u2019s growth and a safety valve for domestic overcapacity in several industries. Third, and perhaps most significantly, inflation is more salient politically in China than in other nations, because of its tendency to produce social unrest that challenges the legitimacy of the Chinese Communist Party\u2019s rule. Support for the CCP depends heavily upon improving standards of living for Chinese citizens. This means that the Chinese government is very likely to react quickly and strongly in response to a potential threat of escalating inflation.\nLONDON, Sept 28 (Reuters) \u2013 Record high coal prices and tight supply are piling the pressure on electricity generators already hit by soaring oil markets and high gas prices, industry players say.\nCoal fuels about 40 pct of global power generation. Physical coal prices for delivery into Europe have risen by over 50 percent this year.\nHigh freight rates are tightening the screws on prices and utilities and cement producers, also big coal users, may be forced to scale down operations.\n\u201cThe market is having to adapt to coal prices, to freights, which we\u2019ve never seen before,\u201d a trader said.\n\u201cI do believe that before the end of the year it\u2019s possible that some generators in Asia will have to look at turning off their plants because they won\u2019t have enough coal,\u201d said a coal producer.\nThis from Bloomberg\u2026\nSept. 28 (Bloomberg) \u2014 Commodities had the biggest monthly gain in 32 years, led by wheat, crude oil and gold, as the dollar\u2019s slump enhanced the appeal of energy, grains and precious metals as a hedge against inflation.\nThe 19-commodity Reuters/Jefferies CRB Index was up 8.1 percent this month, the most since July 1975. Wheat climbed to a record in September amid a global grain shortfall, boosting corn and soybeans. Oil also hit a record, and gold reached a 27-year high. The Federal Reserve cut borrowing costs to bolster the U.S. economy, sending the dollar tumbling.\nRising prices and surging demand for the crops that supply half of the world\u2019s calories are producing the biggest changes in global food markets in 30 years, altering the economic landscape for everyone from consumers and farmers to corporate giants and the world\u2019s poor.\n\u201cThe days of cheap grain are gone,\u201d says Dan Basse, president of AgResource Co., a Chicago commodity forecasting concern.\nThis year the prices of Illinois corn and soybeans are up 40% and 75%, respectively, from a year ago. Kansas wheat is up 70% or more. And a growing number of economists and agribusiness executives think the run-ups could last as long as a decade, raising the cost of all kinds of food.\nIn the past, such increases have been caused by temporary supply disruptions. Following a poor harvest, farmers would rush to capitalize on higher crop prices by planting more of that crop the next season, sending prices back down. But the current rally, which started a year ago in the corn-futures trading pit at the Chicago Board of Trade, is different.\nNot only have prices remained high, but the rally has swept up other commodities such as barley, sorghum, eggs, cheese, oats, rice, peas, sunflower and lentils. In Georgia, the nation\u2019s No. 1 poultry-producing state, slaughterhouses are charging a record wholesale price for three-pound chickens, up 15% from a year ago.\nPosted in Front Page, Money\t| 2 Replies\nHow to properly shut down a bank\nEvery once in a while, I am reminded why it is good to be American. We still do some things right in this country.\nThis particular thought occurred to me as I was reading the FDIC notice regarding the shutdown today of NetBank. Unlike the British regulators who at first lied and then had to cave in to what the market already knew, the FDIC seems to have spotted this problem before it became widely known. And when they spotted the problem they did not mess around. They just shut the whole operation down.\nThis is part of their press release\u2026\u2026\nThe Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) today approved the assumption of the insured deposits of NetBank, Alpharetta, Georgia, by ING Bank, fsb, Wilmington, Delaware.\nNetBank, with $2.5 billion in total assets and $2.3 billion in total deposits as of June 30, was closed today by the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the FDIC was named receiver.\nThe failed bank was an Internet bank and did not have any physical branches. Depositors of NetBank will automatically become depositors of ING Bank.\nOver the weekend, customers can access their money by writing checks, or by using their debit or ATM cards. Checks drawn on the bank that did not clear before today will be honored up to the insured limit. Starting on the morning of Monday, October 1, customers will have full access to their insured deposits via the Internet and for the foreseeable future should continue to utilize NetBank\u2019s current Website to transact banking business.\nING Bank has agreed to assume $1.5 billion of the failed bank\u2019s insured non-brokered deposits for a one percent premium and will purchase $724 million of assets. NetBank had approximately $109 million in 1,500 deposit accounts that exceeded the federal deposit insurance limit. While these customers will have access to their insured deposits, they will become creditors of the receivership for the amount of their uninsured funds.\nThis is the right way to shut down a bank. By shutting down the weak institutions and giving their money to the strong institutions, you can keep the problem from spreading.\nAs a side note, I found the fact that the FDIC was sending NetBank\u2019s deposits over to ING interesting. On one hand, the FDIC had no choice but to send NetBank\u2019s money to another internet bank so it would make sense to chose ING. On the other hand, there are a lot other internet banks out there beside ING.\nBut I have long thought that ING was the only internet bank that was worth anything. I wonder if the FDIC agrees with me.\nPosted on September 26, 2007 by Myth Maker\nThis can be found on a number of websites\u2026..\nSome time back there was a major disaster at The State\u2019s Technology Services Division.

        "raw_content": "\"America's Fragile Experiment\" & Early Patriots\nThe Presidential campaign is so discouraging with both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton opposed by a majority of Americans that I recommend the reading of a new book, America's Fragile Experiment (Amazon, $18.99) about the 10 most important patriots of 1800-1865.\nQuick question: who were those most important leaders? Can you name three of them?\nAuthor Roger Turner gives this succinct description of them: \"John Marshall, the third Chief Justice of the United States, John Quincy Adams, our sixth President, Andrew Jackson, our seventh President, former Senator and Secretary of State Daniel Webster, James K. Polk, our tenth President, General Winfield Scott, one of America's most brilliant military commanders, the great novelist Harriet Beecher Stowe, Frederick Douglas and Harriet Tubman, former slaves and President Abraham Lincoln, our iconic sixteenth President.\"\nEach one were driven by what Turner calls \"intense political idealism, morality and religious belief.\"\nWhat were the great contributions of these patriots to the \"Fragile Experiment\" inspired by the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution?\nJohn Marshall was named Chief Justice by President John Adams in 1801 and served 34 years. He swore in his cousin and political foe, Thomas Jefferson, as the third President. He established the Supreme Court as the sole interpreter of the Constitution, which could rule acts of Congress unconstitutional. In effect, he established the judiciary as the third branch of government.\nJohn Quincy Adams, son of John Adams, a Founding Father who urged his son to possess \"the great virtue of temperance, justice, magnanimity, honor and generosity.\" When his father was named an emissary to France during the Revolution, John Quincy joined him, learned French and was a favorite of Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson who negotiated American Independence.\nHe was the U.S. emissary to Russia and was named Secretary of State in 1821, where he persuaded President Monroe to issue the \"Monroe Doctrine\" which announced that North and South America are \"free and independent\" and are \"henceforth not to be considered as subject for future colonization by any European power.\" He read through the entire Bible annually.\nAndrew Jackson made his national reputation by defeating British troops, who outnumbered Americans by 2-1 in New Orleans in the War of 1812. Had he been defeated, America would have lost the entire Louisiana territory.\nBefore he was orphaned at age 13, his mother instilled in him the importance of honesty, self-control, the need for friendship and of believing in himself. He read three chapters of the Bible nightly. When elected President in 1828, he was the first \"man of the people.\" His predecessors were educated landed aristocrats. His election \"reinforced the belief that all men, regardless of station in life, could aspire to greater things,\" even being President.\nDaniel Webster was a spell-binding orator with a magnificent voice, who closed one Senate speech against South Carolina's threat to nullify federal legislation by saying, \"Liberty and union, now and forever, one and inseparable.\" He bought some slaves to set them free. He translated the entire New Testament from its original Greek.\nWebster negotiated a compromise that admitted California as a free state and allowed New Mexico and Utah to decide the slavery issue but strengthened the Fugitive Slave Law, making it easier for the South to gain return of escaped slaves. In doing so, he angered his constituents and lost the opportunity to be President.\nJames Polk is considered one of the ten best Presidents because he extended America's borders to the Pacific, enlarging the nation by nearly 40%. How? By defeating Mexico in a war, making the Rio Grande the border, and purchasing California and New Mexico for $15 million. He also finalized U.S. control over the Oregon Territory that had been claimed by the British.\nGeneral Winfield Scott captured Mexico City in 1847. He defeated a British-Canadian force in the War of 1812. Equally important, he made the U.S. Army a professional fighting force. He also led U.S. troops who forced the Cherokee Indians to move from Florida to west of the Mississippi, in the \"Trail of Tears.\" Finally, in his 80s, Scott advised Lincoln how to defeat the South.\nHarriet Beecher Stowe wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin that had a transformative impact on America. She depicted the horrors of slavery so powerfully, the book sold two million copies and ended America's seeming indifference to slavery. Former slaves Frederick Douglas and Harriet Tubman were powerful speakers who won Northern hearts.\nHowever, it was the Civil War, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation and the 13th Amendment that ended slavery. As Lincoln put it, \"This nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom and shall not perish from the earth.\"\nWhy don't we have leaders like these?",

(Nov. 4, 2011) \u2013 ETM Manufacturing, the trusted partner for highly customized, high quality sheet metal manufacturing and supply chain solutions, will more than quadruple the size of its New England-based operations, opening a state-of-the-art, environmentally friendly facility in Littleton, Mass. in early 2012. The company today announced that it has begun a $500,000 renovation on a 43,000-square foot facility, vacant since 2009, in response to the demand for a local partner that can meet the needs of New England-based original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).\nETM Manufacturing, which has delivered 200% growth in recent years, provides sheet metal fabrication, machining and assembly with customized supply chain solutions to OEMs in dozens of industries, including computing giant EMC2 Corporation and solar mounting system leader, Panel Claw.\nIts new facility will provide a broader range of services and solutions, including expanded kitting, mechanical assembly and inventory management capability. The operation will provide:\n\u201cWhat ETM Manufacturing provides is a total supply chain solution \u2013 from design assistance and raw material procurement to delivering the finished product right to the customer. Your end-to-end solution saves time and money,\u201d said to Phil Orlando, Director of Supply Chain at Panel Claw.\nFor New England OEMs who need small- and medium-size production runs of highly customized sheet metal-based products such as enclosures, panels and mechanical assemblies, ETM Manufacturing provides a local partner for cost-effective supply chain solutions that accelerate time-to-market. With government incentives designed to bring manufacturing \u2013 and manufacturing jobs \u2013 back into the U.S., ETM Manufacturing is investing in its operations to ensure that as New England OEMs find new reasons to adopt near-shoring strategies for design, production and distribution, it is positioned to meet those needs.\nSmall Business Incentives Fuel Opportunity for Growth\nAs the economy revives in fits and starts, there continues to be a belief that a full-blown recovery is highly dependent on small businesses. As a participant in the Small Business Administration\u2019s 504 plan, ETM Manufacturing secured below-market financing from Middlesex Savings Bank and the Granite State Development Corp. to purchase the former location of Curtiss-Wright Controls Division, bring the facility back online, and re-establish a manufacturing center in the heart of New England. The company currently has 24 employees and is immediately hiring for positions in manufacturing, customer service and supply chain consulting to meet the expanded demand for its solutions.\n\u201cWe believe there\u2019s a great opportunity for manufacturing right here in New England, with a highly skilled workforce and some of the world\u2019s most innovative thinking about how to improve supply chain efficiency,\u201d said Rob Olney, president. \u201cWe are extremely excited about the potential to help OEMS from Maine to Connecticut drive continuous innovation in their supply chains for better customer, shareholder and partner results.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The amount that you spend on inventory and the amount that you have sitting around in your warehouses actually really does matter. Those who feel that this is something that is unimportant to the operation of their business are only fooling themselves.\nEveryone realizes that it is the job of the business owner to maintain full control over how much inventory he has as well as how much is going out, and at what price. This is a job that can obviously be a little difficult to do, and that is why the inventory management system on excel exists.\nWhat Is The Inventory Management System?\nThe excel program can be used for a great many things, not the least of which is your inventory management. Although you may not realize it, the inventory that you have can be kept track of rather easily. You just need to have a program that can help you keep tabs on everything that is going on in your warehouses. The excel program is perfect for this because you can just enter in all of the information that you need from the warehouses into the program and keep a record of everything this way.\nWhy an Inventory Management System Matters\nThe plain and simple reason why you need to be concerned with this is straightforward. You need to be concerned with how much inventory you have versus how much is going out the door because you need to be able to stay accountable to yourself for these types of things.\nMany people do not feel that they are able to do this unless they have a program such as the inventory system that can help them to make it happen. Therefore, it is never surprising when someone says that they are feeling much better having used this program.\nInventory System Comparison\nTime limit is exhausted.

He conquered the eastern Iranian lands, modern Afghanistan, and the northwestern Indian subcontinent (modern Pakistan) from 997 to his death in 1030. Mahmud turned the former provincial city of Ghazna into the wealthy capital of an extensive empire that covered most of today's Afghanistan, eastern Iran, and Pakistan, by looting the riches and wealth from the then Indian subcontinent.[2][3] He was the first ruler to hold the title Sultan (\"authority\"), signifying the extent of his power while at the same time preserving an ideological link to the suzerainty of the Abbasid Caliphate. During his rule, he invaded and plundered parts of the Indian subcontinent (east of the Indus River) seventeen times.[3][4]\nThe National Register of Citizens (NRC) is a list of Indian citizens of Assam. National Register of Citizens India. It's the logo of the state of Assam NRC work. The first NRC was prepared in 1951,[1][2] 1951 Census of India.[3] The NRC Update of 2014\u20132016 across Assam includes the names of those people (or of their descendants) who appear in the NRC 1951, or in any of the Electoral Rolls[4] up to the midnight of 24 March 1971[5] or in any one of the other admissible documents issued up to the midnight of 24 March 1971, which would prove their presence in Assam on or before 24 March 1971. The NRC (1951) and the Electoral Rolls up to the midnight of 24 March 1971 together are collectively called Legacy Data.[6] On 30th July, 2018, the final draft of NRC was released.[7][8] Names of 40 lakh (4 million) people were still left out in the final draft.\nAshoka (English: /\u0259\u02c8\u0283o\u028ak\u0259/; Sanskritized as IAST: A\u015boka), or in contemporary Prakrit Asoka,[6] sometimes Ashoka the Great, was an Indian emperor of the Maurya Dynasty, who ruled almost all of the Indian subcontinent from c.\u2009268 to 232 BCE.[7][8] The grandson of the founder of the Maurya Dynasty, Chandragupta Maurya, Ashoka promoted the spread of Buddhism. One of India's greatest emperors,[according to whom?] Ashoka expanded Chandragupta's empire to reign over a realm stretching from present-day Afghanistan in the west to Bangladesh in the east. It covered the entire Indian subcontinent except for parts of present-day Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Kerala. The empire's capital was Pataliputra (in Magadha, present-day Patna), with provincial capitals at Taxila and Ujjain. Ashoka waged a destructive war against the state of Kalinga (modern Odisha),[9] which he conquered in about 260 BCE.[10] In about 263 BCE, he converted to Buddhism[9] after witnessing the mass deaths of the Kalinga War, which he had waged out of a desire for conquest and which reportedly directly resulted in more than 100,000 deaths and 150,000 deportations and led to around 200,000 deaths.[11] He is remembered for the Ashoka pillars and edicts, for sending Buddhist monks to Sri Lanka and Central Asia, and for establishing monuments marking several significant sites in the life of Gautama Buddha.[12] Beyond the Edicts of Ashoka, biographical information about him relies on legends written centuries later, such as the 2nd-century CE Ashokavadana (\"Narrative of Ashoka\", a part of the Divyavadana), and in the Sri Lankan text Mahavamsa (\"Great Chronicle\"). The emblem of the modern Republic of India is an adaptation of the Lion Capital of Ashoka. His Sanskrit name \"A\u015boka\" means \"painless, without sorrow\" (the a privativum and \u015boka, \"pain, distress\"). In his edicts, he is referred to as Dev\u0101n\u0101mpriya (Pali Dev\u0101na\u1e43piya or \"the Beloved of the Gods\"), and Priyadar\u015bin (Pali Piyadas\u012b or \"He who regards everyone with affection\"). His fondness for his name's connection to the Saraca asoca tree, or \"Ashoka tree\", is also referenced in the Ashokavadana. In The Outline of History, H.G. Wells wrote, \"Amidst the tens of thousands of names of monarchs that crowd the columns of history, their majesties and graciousnesses and serenities and royal highnesses and the like, the name of Ashoka shines, and shines, almost alone, a star.\"[13]\nMuhi-ud-Din Muhammad[3] (Persian: \u0645\u062d\u064a \u0627\u0644\u062f\u064a\u0646 \u0645\u062d\u0645\u062f\u200e) (3 November 1618 \u2013 3 March 1707),[1] commonly known by the sobriquet Aurangzeb (Urdu: \u0627\u064e\u0648\u0631\u0646\u06af\u0632\u06cc\u0628 \u202c\u200e), (Persian: \u0627\u0648\u0631\u0646\u06af\u200c\u0632\u06cc\u0628\u200e \"Ornament of the Throne\")[3] or by his regnal title Alamgir (Urdu: \u0639\u0627\u0644\u0645\u06af\u0650\u06cc\u0631 \u202c\u200e), (Persian: \u0639\u0627\u0644\u0645\u06af\u064a\u0631\u200e \"Conqueror of the World\"),[4] was the sixth Mughal emperor. Widely considered the last effective emperor, his reign lasted for 49 years from 1658 until his death in 1707.[5][6] Aurangzeb was a notable expansionist during his reign, the Mughal Empire reached its greatest extent, ruling over nearly all of the Indian subcontinent.[7] During his lifetime, victories in the south expanded the Mughal Empire to 4 million square kilometres,[8] and he ruled over a population estimated to be over 158 million subjects,[7] with an annual yearly revenue of $450 million (more than ten times that of his contemporary Louis XIV of France),[9] or \u00a338,624,680 (2,879,469,894 rupees) in 1690.[10] Under his reign, the Mughal Empire surpassed China to become the world's largest economy, worth over $90 billion, nearly a quarter of world GDP in 1700.[11] Aurangzeb has been subject to controversy and criticism[12] for his policies that abandoned his predecessors' legacy of pluralism and religious tolerance, citing his introduction of the Jizya tax, destruction of Hindu temples, execution or forced conversion of his non-Muslim subjects to Islam and execution of the ninth Sikh guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur. [13][14][a]. Various historians question the historicity of the claims of his critics, arguing that his destruction of temples has been exaggerated,[15][12] and noting that he also built temples,[16] also destroyed Islamic mosques, paid for the maintenance of temples,[17] employed significantly more Hindus in his imperial bureaucracy than his predecessors did, and opposed bigotry against Hindus and Shia Muslims.[18] At the end of his reign that the downfall of the Mughal Empire began due to his policy of religious intolerance. Rebellions and wars eventually led to the exhaustion of the imperial Mughal treasury and army. He was a strong-handed authoritarian ruler, and following his death the expansionary period of the Mughal Empire came to an end. Nevertheless, the contiguous territory of the Mughal Empire still remained intact more or less until the reign of Muhammad Shah.[citation needed]\nAbu'l-Fath Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar [7] \u062c\u0644\u0627\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062f\u06cc\u0646 \u0645\u062d\u0645\u062f \u0627\u06a9\u0628\u0631\u202c (15 October 1542[a]\u2013 27 October 1605[10][11]), popularly known as Akbar I (IPA: [\u0259kb\u0259r]),[12] also as Akbar the Great[13][14][15][16] (Akbar-i-azam \u0627\u06a9\u0628\u0631 \u0627\u0639\u0638\u0645\u202c), was the third Mughal emperor, who reigned from 1556 to 1605. Akbar succeeded his father, Humayun, under a regent, Bairam Khan, who helped the young emperor expand and consolidate Mughal domains in India. A strong personality and a successful general, Akbar gradually enlarged the Mughal Empire to include nearly all of the Indian Subcontinent north of the Godavari river. His power and influence, however, extended over the entire country because of Mughal military, political, cultural, and economic dominance. To unify the vast Mughal state, Akbar established a centralised system of administration throughout his empire and adopted a policy of conciliating conquered rulers through marriage and diplomacy. To preserve peace and order in a religiously and culturally diverse empire, he adopted policies that won him the support of his non-Muslim subjects. Eschewing tribal bonds and Islamic state identity, Akbar strove to unite far-flung lands of his realm through loyalty, expressed through an Indo-Persian culture, to himself as an emperor who had near-divine status. Mughal India developed a strong and stable economy, leading to commercial expansion and greater patronage of culture. Akbar himself was a patron of art and culture. He was fond of literature, and created a library of over 24,000 volumes written in Sanskrit, Urdu, Persian, Greek, Latin, Arabic and Kashmiri, staffed by many scholars, translators, artists, calligraphers, scribes, bookbinders and readers. Akbar also established the library of Fatehpur Sikri exclusively for women,[17] and he decreed that schools for the education of both Muslims and Hindus should be established throughout the realm. Holy men of many faiths, poets, architects, and artisans adorned his court from all over the world for study and discussion. Akbar's courts at Delhi, Agra, and Fatehpur Sikri became centres of the arts, letters, and learning. Perso-Islamic culture began to merge and blend with indigenous Indian elements, and a distinct Indo-Persian culture emerged characterized by Mughal style arts, painting, and architecture. Disillusioned with orthodox Islam and perhaps hoping to bring about religious unity within his empire, Akbar promulgated Din-i-Ilahi, a syncretic creed derived mainly from Islam and Hinduism as well as some parts of Zoroastrianism and Christianity. A simple, monotheistic cult, tolerant in outlook, it centered on Akbar as a prophet, for which he drew the ire of the ulema and orthodox Muslims. Many of his courtiers followed Din-i-Ilahi as their religion as well, as many believed that Akbar was a prophet. One famous courtier who followed this blended religion was Birbal.[citation needed] Akbar's reign significantly influenced the course of Indian history. During his rule, the Mughal empire tripled in size and wealth. He created a powerful military system and instituted effective political and social reforms. By abolishing the sectarian tax on non-Muslims and appointing them to high civil and military posts, he was the first Mughal ruler to win the trust and loyalty of the native subjects. He had Sanskrit literature translated, participated in native festivals, realising that a stable empire depended on the co-operation and good-will of his subjects. Thus, the foundations for a multicultural empire under Mughal rule were laid during his reign. Akbar was succeeded as emperor by his son, Prince Salim, later known as Jahangir.\nShivaji Bhonsle (Marathi [\u0283i\u028ba\u02d1\u025fi\u02d1 b\u02b1o\u02d1s(\u0259)le\u02d1]; c. 1627/1630 \u2013 3 April 1680) was an Indian warrior king and a member of the Bhonsle Maratha clan. Shivaji carved out an enclave from the declining Adilshahi sultanate of Bijapur that formed the genesis of the Maratha Empire. In 1674, he was formally crowned as the chhatrapati (monarch) of his realm at Raigad. Over the course of his life, Shivaji engaged in both alliances and hostilities with the Mughal Empire, Sultanate of Golkonda, and Sultanate of Bijapur, as well as the English, Portuguese, and French colonial powers.[citation needed] Shivaji's military forces expanded the Maratha sphere of influence, capturing and building forts, and forming a Maratha navy. Shivaji established a competent and progressive civil rule with well-structured administrative organisations. He revived ancient Hindu political traditions and court conventions and promoted the usage of Marathi and Sanskrit, rather than Persian, in court and administration. Shivaji's legacy was to vary by observer and time but he began to take on increased importance with the emergence of the Indian independence movement, as many elevated him as a proto-nationalist and hero of the Hindus.[3] Particularly in Maharashtra, debates over his history and role have engendered great passion and sometimes even violence as disparate groups have sought to characterise him and his legacy.\nTerrorism in India, according to the Home Ministry, poses a significant threat to the people of India. Terrorism found in India includes ethno-nationalist terrorism, religious terrorism, left wing terrorism and narco terrorism. A common definition of terrorism is the systematic use or threatened use of violence to intimidate a population or government for political, religious, or ideological goals.[8][9] The regions with long term terrorist activities have been Jammu and Kashmir, east-central and south-central India (Naxalism) and the Seven Sister States. In August 2008, National Security Advisor M K Narayanan has said that there are as many as 800 terrorist cells operating in the country.[10] As of 2013, 205 of the country\u2019s 608 districts were affected by terrorist activity.[11] Terror attacks caused 231 civilian deaths in 2012 in India, compared to 11,098 terror-caused deaths worldwide, according to the State Department of the United States; or about 2% of global terror fatalities while it accounts for 17.5% of global population.\nIn India, where cows are venerated by a large segment of the population, cow vigilante violence involving mob attacks in the name of \"cow protection,\" but targeting mostly Muslims, has swelled since 2014.Cattle slaughter is banned in most states of India,[4] Recently emerged cow vigilante groups, claiming to be protecting cattle, have accused some Indian Muslims and Dalits of cattle theft or slaughter, and targeted violence against them, leading to a number of deaths. Cow-protection groups see themselves as preventing theft, protecting the cow or upholding the law in an Indian state which bans cow slaughter. There has been a rise in the number of incidents of cow vigilantism since the election of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to the Indian central government in 2014. The frequency and severity of cow vigilante violence has been described as \"unprecedented\".[5] Human Rights Watch has reported that there has been a surge in cow vigilante violence since 2015.[6] The surge is attributed to the recent rise in Hindu nationalism in India.[5][7] Many vigilante groups say they feel \"empowered\" by the victory of the Hindu nationalist BJP in the 2014 election.[8][9] However, in a major setback for cow vigilantism, the Supreme Court of India in September 2017 ruled that each state should appoint a police officer in each district as a nodal officer to take strict action against cow vigilantism.\nThe Bombay Riots usually refers to the riots in Mumbai, in December 1992 and January 1993, in which around 900 people died.[1][2] The riots were mainly due to escalations of hostilities after large scale protests (which were initially peaceful, but eventually turned violent) by Muslims in reaction to the 1992 Babri Masjid Demolition by Hindu Karsevaks in Ayodhya. The 1993 Bombay bombings were a series of 12 bomb explosions that took place in Mumbai, India, then known as Bombay, on 12 March 1993.[3] The coordinated attacks, carried out in revenge for earlier riots that killed many people,[4] were the most-destructive bomb explosions in Indian history.[5] These were the first serial-bomb-blasts of their kind in the world. The single-day attacks resulted in 257 fatalities and 713 injuries.[6][7] The then-Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Sharad Pawar, announced that there had been thirteen blasts, including a fictitious bomb in a Muslim quarter of the city, to prevent the events from taking on a communal hue.The 2008 Mumbai attacks (also referred to as 26/11)[10][a] were a group of terrorist attacks that took place in November 2008, when 10 members of Lashkar-e-Taiba, an Islamic terrorist organisation based in Pakistan, carried out a series of 12 coordinated shooting and bombing attacks lasting four days across Mumbai. The attacks, which drew widespread global condemnation, began on Wednesday, 26 November and lasted until Saturday, 29 November 2008. 164 people died and 308 were wounded.\nThe burning of a train in Godhra on 27 February 2002, which caused the deaths of 58 Hindu pilgrims karsevaks returning from Ayodhya, is cited as having instigated the violence. According to official figures, the riots ended with 1,044 dead, 223 missing, and 2,500 injured. Of the dead, 790 were Muslim and 254 Hindu,The 2002 Gujarat riots, also known as the 2002 Gujarat violence and the Gujarat pogrom,[4][5][6][7] was a three-day period of inter-communal violence in the western Indian state of Gujarat. Following the initial incident there were further outbreaks of violence in Ahmedabad for three months; statewide, there were further outbreaks of violence against the minority Muslim population ! by Dr Ram Puniyani .\nDevelopment Of India After Independence Nehru's Message to Nation. 15th August 1947: India after Partition is declared Independent of British Rule. 26 January was Declared as Purna Swaraj Day.

        "raw_content": "Thor\u2019s Well is interesting, albeit treacherous, feature of the wild Oregon coast.\nSome call it a \u201cgaping sinkhole,\u201d the \u201cdrainpipe of the Pacific\u201d even a \u201cgate to hell.\u201d It\u2019s known as a bucket list item for any thrill-seeking photographer.\nSitting on the edge of the Oregon coast is what appears to be a gaping sinkhole that never seems to fill despite the unbroken stream of sea water that drains into it, but Thor\u2019s Well, as the natural wonder is known, is not bottomless, but it is very dangerous.\nAlso known as the drainpipe of the Pacific, the well is actually a hole in the rock that only appears to drain water from the ocean. In reality the huge hole is likely only around 20 feet deep. Even if the well is not quite as magic as it seems, it still manages to produce amazing sights, but is not for the faint of heart.\nThor\u2019s Well is a bowl-shaped hole carved out of the rough basalt shoreline. Likely started out as a sea cave dug out by the waves before the roof eventually collapsed, leaving openings at the top and bottom through which the ocean surges and sprays. Circular shape aside, it\u2019s not so different from the other features around it but its shape and location, right against the Pacific Ocean, result in some pretty unusual behavior.\nThe site is said to be most spectacular at high tide, or during storms. At high tide, the waves roll underneath the bowl, filling it from the bottom until it bubbles out the top or bursts up in violent spray. The water then rolls back into the hole, making Thor\u2019s Well appear to fill and drain endlessly. It\u2019s fun to watch when the ocean is high, but return at low tide to see the mechanisms at work.\nNobody can never tell when an unexpectedly ginormous wave will come surging past the well, knocking down anyone who might be in the way and dragging them out to sea.\nDuring these sudden torrents, unsuspecting visitors to the site run the risk of being swept right into the maelstrom. Despite its reputation, Thor\u2019s Well isn\u2019t particularly dangerous, all people who have been hit by sneaker waves while looking at the feature. They didn\u2019t get sucked into the hole, but got plenty of scrapes and cuts against the sharp volcanic rock.\nSource: atlasobscura.com, oregonlive.com & roadtrippers.com",

        "raw_content": "FOUNDER'S DIRECTING AWARD\nAn Evening with Francis Walter Salles\nWalter Salles will receive the Founder\u00eds Directing Award at the 53rd San Francisco International Film Festival. The onstage tribute at the Sundance Kabuki Cinemas will include a clip reel of career highlights, an onstage interview and a special screening of In Search of On the Road (a Work in Progress), an hour-long edit prepared specifically for the Festival of a documentary about Salles\u00eds effort to make a documentary about Jack Kerouac, the seminal novel On the Road and the Beat Generation.\nRelated screening: Linha de Passe\nDIR: Walter Salles, Daniela Thomas (Brazil 2008, 110 min)\nPresented with support from the Consulate General of Brazil in San Francisco.\nDreaming Identity\nBy Margarita Landazurri\n\"Cinema is, first and foremost, the projection of a cultural identity which comes to life on the screen,\" Walter Salles wrote in his foreword to The Cinema of Latin America (2003). \"It mirrors or should mirror this identity. But that is not all. It should also dream it. Or make it flesh and blood, with all its contradictions.\" In dreaming and exploring his own cultural identity as a Brazilian, a Latin American and a citizen of the world, Salles has contributed his unique perspective and in so doing significantly enriched international cinema.\nThe son of a banker/diplomat, Salles had a peripatetic childhood spent partly in Europe. \"I had a better knowledge of Italian neorealism and the French New Wave than I did of the cinematic currents in Latin America,\" he recalled. Returning to Brazil as an adolescent, he discovered both Cinema N\u00f4vo, Brazil's politicized independent cinema of the 1960s (itself influenced by European cinema), and one of the masterpieces of Brazilian silent film, M\u00e1rio Peixoto's avant-garde Limite (1931). He studied at the University of Southern California, and began making documentaries and commercials in the mid-1980s. \"I think I turned to documentary filmmaking very early on as a way to know a little bit more about my country and my roots,\" Salles has said. One of his award-winning documentaries was Life Somewhere Else (1995), a touching account of the correspondence between women's prison inmate Socorro Nobre and the Polish-born artist and Holocaust survivor Franz Krajcberg. Salles has said Nobre's personality inspired the character of Dora in his highly regarded third feature, Central Station (1998).\nBy the time Salles began making feature films in the early 1990s, the Brazilian film industry had been decimated. In 1990, the government shut down Embrafilme, the state-financed company that had supported filmmaking for more than 20 years. Salles's first feature, Exposure (1991)\u2014an American-style thriller whose international cast included Peter Coyote and Tch\u00e9ky Karyo\u2014relied on non-Brazilian backing. With the change of regime in 1994, the industry began recovering. Salles's second feature, Foreign Land (1995), was well received in Brazil and beyond. But it was his next, Central Station, that earned worldwide acclaim and awards. His documentary background is evident in Central Station's images of the sert\u00e3o, the arid region of northeast Brazil where Dora and Josu\u00e9 search for the boy's father, and in the use of non-actors in some roles.\nBoth the documentary influence and theme of a journey of identity would recur in Salles's subsequent films, notably his biggest international success, The Motorcycle Diaries (2004), based on the pre-revolutionary life of Ernesto \"Che\" Guevara and traveling companion Alberto Granado, and starring Gael Garc\u00eda Bernal and Rodrigo de la Serna. Many of the locals the two friends meet across the length of South America were played by real people. The film earned numerous awards at international film festivals. Salles's now trademark semi-documentary style and sense of place return in his most recent film, Linha de Passe (2008), codirected with Daniela Thomas. The film explores the lives of four brothers living with their mother in the teeming slums of S\u00e3o Paulo. Non-actors play three of the brothers, while Vin\u00edcius de Oliveira, playing the fourth, only became an actor after being cast as Josu\u00e9 in Central Station.\nSalles's international success has led him to expand his cinematic horizons. He is preparing the film version of Jack Kerouac's On the Road. In 2008, Salles and a film crew traveled the route Kerouac took while writing the book, interviewing Beat poets and other people who inspired the novel's characters for a documentary. (Material from this documentary will be shown as a work-in-progress on Wednesday, April 28.) Along with his Motorcycle Diaries cowriter, Salles also is developing a screenplay for American Rust, based on the novel by Philipp Meyer.\nHis youthful discovery of Limite has taken Salles far beyond simple appreciation of the film. Director M\u00e1rio Peixoto was only 21 when he made the film, and never made another. Salles supported Peixoto in his last years, until his death in 1992. In 1996, Salles founded the M\u00e1rio Peixoto Archives to house Peixoto's papers, and currently is involved in restoring Limite. It's one of the projects of the World Cinema Foundation, created by Martin Scorsese to save endangered masterpieces. Salles serves on the Foundation's filmmakers' board.\nWith his own career booming, Salles has assumed two additional responsibilities: helping and mentoring the next generation of filmmakers, and preserving the legacy of earlier generations. He has produced or executive-produced several films by emerging Latin American directors, including Karim Ainouz's feature debut Madame Sat\u00e3 (SFIFF 2002), Fernando Meirelles's acclaimed City of God (2002) and Pablo Trapero's Lion's Den (2008). His own success, he says, \"reinforced my need to be part of Latin American cinema. . . . Basically it reinforced my desire to produce the films of young filmmakers in Brazil and to help other people in Latin America to do their films and talk about what they see.\"\nWalter Salles's journey of cultural identity continues to evolve, but he has refused to be pigeonholed into what he considers \"colonial\" notions of what his films should be. \"We make films that are like the melting pot that characterizes our cultures: impure, imperfect and plural.\"\nMargarita Landazuri writes about film history for the San Francisco Silent Film Festival and the Turner Classic Movies Web site. Her work has appeared in various publications, including International Documentary and Release Print.\nWalter Salles selected Filmography\n2008 Linha de Passe (codirector)\n2006 Paris je t\u2019aime (contributing director)\n2004 The Motorcycle Diaries\n1998 Central Station\n1995 Foreign Land (codirector)\n2009 Francis Ford Coppola\n2008\tMike Leigh\n2007\tSpike Lee\n2006 Werner Herzog\n2005 Taylor Hackford\n2004 Milos Forman\n2003 Robert Altman\nPreviously Known as Akira Kurosawa Award\n2001 Clint Eastwood\n2000 Abbas Kiarostami\n1999 Arturo Ripstein\n1998 Im Kwon-Taek\n1997 Francesco Rosi\n1996 Arthur Penn\n1994 Manoel De Oliveira\n1993 Ousmane Semb\u00e8ne\n1991 Marcel Carn\u00e8\n1990 Jir\u00ed Menzel\n1988 Robert Bresson\n1987 Michael Powell\n1986 Akira Kurosawa",

        "raw_content": "Starting today, I am kicking off my first 100 days of fall blogging.\nI\u2019ve just finished the summer of swim parenting. We\u2019ve driven over 3000 miles crisscrossing the southwest to attend three out-of-town meets in the past three months. Couple that with three more in-town meets, thirteen practices per week, and other non-swimming activities and it\u2019s been difficult to focus on much else. But the swim season has ended. The kids are back in school. And I\u2019m ready to ramp up my blogging activity.\nBut before I go into details about my blogging plans, I wanted to share a little historical information that I discovered about the term, \u201cfirst 100 days.\u201d\nThe expression first became popular with President Franklin D. Roosevelt. President Roosevelt wanted to use his first few days in office to begin pulling the country out of the Great Depression. As Roosevelt took office, the country was in turmoil with the stock market having lost 85% of its value, a quarter of the workforce unemployed, and the banking system teetering on failure due to cash hoarding.\nDuring his first week in office, Roosevelt jumped in with both feet, making changes to secure the banking system and laying the groundwork for what would become his \u201cNew Deal.\u201d By the middle of 1933, the term, \u201cfirst 100 days\u201d would be forever linked with the beginning of the Roosevelt presidency and would thereafter be used to measure the effectiveness of all future Presidents to follow.\nWhat Will You Do in Your First 100 Days?\nBut no matter what your endeavor, the first 100 days are critical. This period represents not just a time of learning, but also a chance to set your tone for the future. It is during this time that expectations are often low giving you the opportunity to shine and possibly catch others off guard.\nI am such a believer in starting off on the right foot that when interviewing potential new hires, I often ask the question, \u201cWhat will you do in your first 100 days?\u201d\nAnd while having detailed specific plans isn\u2019t always necessary, I do want to know that the candidate has thought about what life will be like working in the role.\nI hire people who are self-motivated, forward-thinking, and well-prepared. How they answer the question about their first 100 days tells me much about how they will perform in the job.\nFor most new hires, I am looking for a response that addresses the three aspects of any role that you need to master \u2013 people, technical, and culture.\nPeople. Companies are run by people. To get anything done, you need to know who to go to. Learning who does what and building relationships with people is critical to your success. Depending on your role, the people you need to know include supervisors and above, subordinates and below, and most importantly, your peers. Unless you\u2019re the CEO, you will have peers.\nTechnical. This refers to the skills needed to succeed at your job. Technical attributes can include programming, analytical skills, sales ability, or many others. When you start a new role, you may already have a solid foundation in the technical aspects of the job. As you move up, this will become more of a hiring requirement. But just having the technical skills doesn\u2019t mean you are ready. You will need to apply those skills to your new company and new position.\nCulture. This aspect of you new job will be a significant determinant of your satisfaction in your new role. Culture spans both the entire organization and your specific area within the company. If the culture in either area is misaligned with your own goals, you will struggle to feel comfortable.\nMy First 100 Days of Fall Blogging\nI like to find opportunities to create little motivational incentives. Setting up a number of goals for the first 100 days of fall blogging does just that.\nPlus, I do better with checklists. When I organize everything into a nice, neat spreadsheet, I know what I need to get done and I can track how successful I am completing those items.\nI created the following goals to guide me over the first 100 days of fall blogging:\nPost 4 articles per week. This will be a monumental task. I\u2019ve struggled with consistency in posting and this drives me crazy. I generally write when I\u2019m inspired without much regard for sticking to an editorial calendar. This creates periods of writer\u2019s block. I have also noticed that the more often I write, the easier it becomes. When I go for longer stretches (as in the period between this post and the prior one), it becomes more difficult to get the words out. A concern about writing and posting daily is keeping up the quality. In general, I\u2019ve been able to maintain a pretty high quality standard up to this point, and I don\u2019t want that to change. I am going to use the next 100 days as a test period to determine if I can post more frequently and maintain the high quality.\nRespond to comments within 24 hours. I am so appreciative when readers not only take the time to visit the site and read the articles, but when they go through the effort of leaving a comment as well. Comments are motivating. They help you realize that the page view stats you see are real people (at least some of them). I love the interaction and commit to respond to comments within 24 hours.\nVisit and actively participate on 10 sites per week. This actually seems too low. There are so many great sites, the harder part is not spending all your time reading articles online. But by setting a specific target, I can measure my success in achieving that target. And there\u2019s nothing to say that I can\u2019t exceed the target. It\u2019s smart to set reasonable expectations and then try to beat them.\nTake off Saturday or Sunday. We all need time away. After the latest swim meet, my family rented a house in the mountains for a few days before returning back home. It was truly remarkable. Nestled on a steep slope facing the ski area, we spent many hours sitting outside enjoying the scenery and each other\u2019s company. I am a big believer in being proactive. And that means scheduling time away from the site. As I am a solo operation at the moment, it\u2019s difficult to get away for more than a day (and still respond to comments within 24 hours), but I can (and need to) get away for at least one day per week.\nYou may notice that all of the above goals are things that I can control. As I\u2019ve mentioned before, focus on the inputs and let the outputs take care of themselves.\nReaders, thanks for hanging in there with me over the summer of swim parenting. Please let me know what you think about my goals for the first 100 days of fall blogging. And share your goals for the next 100 days (or whatever time frame you prefer).\nPrevious Post: \u00ab David Eagleman \u2013 Simplifying the Complex\nNext Post: Half Marathon Training Begins Today \u00bb\nGreat article, and good luck with the 4 articles posted per week. I would be interested to know whether you site down each day to write, or do you do several posts and simply schedule their publication? For myself, I need to set aside time, each day, or it is a scramble to get something out. Is the referenced \u201csite participation\u201d generally a personal commentary on someone else\u2019s blog post, or do you contribute guest articles etc.?\nI am referring to reading and commenting on other sites.\nAs far as writing, I tend to work on one post at a time. While I have many drafts and ideas written down, typically I don\u2019t pull it into final form until the day it gets posted.\nGoing forward, my goal is to write nearly every day. As I said, I find the writng process works better the more iften I write.\nI think you\u2019ve set some great goals. I totally get the swim parenting \u2013 (and I was a swimmer too!) I\u2019m not sure I could manage four posts a week at all. I have to work hard to get two done. I do the same thing you do in terms of writing though \u2013 I have a bunch of ideas, but I find it really hard to write more than one post at a time. Good luck and look forward to your progress!\nI too have struggled to even write two posts per week. But by targeting a higher output, I am hoping to get a little extra kick in the form of developing a good habit of daily writing.\nFS, I commend you on your ambitious yet achievable goals. They\u2019re clear, concise and numerical \u2013 making it very easy to know if you can do it or not. 4 posts a week is quite a tall order, as you\u2019ll have to post on consecutive days to make them fit in some calendar weeks. Having a clear plan about what your topics will be about, will help a lot (otherwise you may run out of ideas).\nI also like that you\u2019ve specifically stated you\u2019ll take a day off as well, this is important \u2013 or you may become overworked mentally \ud83d\ude42\nI am a little worried about running out of ideas. Recently, I\u2019ve been spending more time just brainstorming and writing down ideas and drafts.\nI haven\u2019t figured out exactly how to structure the four posts per week, but that will come with time. I do have a few thoughts that will keep the content ideas flowing.\nThanks, Thias.\nOver the past two months or so, I have also fallen off with my participation on other sites (and my own for that matter). I remember hearing from other bloggers who had been doing this a while that summer tended to be a slower time. And now I see why. It\u2019s tough to find the time.\nBut now that things are slowing down, I\u2019m looking forward to getting back out there.",

        "raw_content": "K.I.T.T's Weapon Systems\nK.I.T.T's Primary Directive is to protect human life. Sometimes, that calls for incapacitating those that would harm others, particularly his Driver. It has been hard-wired into every inch of K.I.T.T that under no circumstances must he intentionally take a life. As such he has been equipped with several Compliance Weapons, also known as \"Less-Lethal Weapons\".\nK.I.T.T's Dazzler is a type of a directed-energy weapon employing intense visible light, generated by a DPSS laser with green light output at 532 nm, essentially a greater-intensity version of the green laser pointer. The advantage of 532 nm wavelength lies in its ability to interact with the human eye in both daylight and reduced light conditions. It is a non-lethal weapon intended to cause temporary blindness or disorientation\nK.I.T.T is equipped with two light machine guns that fire wax bullets.

        "raw_content": "How \u201960s V\u00e9rit\u00e9 Transformed American Cinema\nAn NYC retrospective and revival run spotlight how the formal advances of '60s non-fiction informed '70s fiction.\nWhen we talk about the \u201cNew Hollywood\u201d movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s \u2013 that glorious moment in which the lunatics took over the asylum, producing enduring works like The Godfather, Chinatown, Bonnie & Clyde, American Graffiti, and their ilk \u2013 we tend settle on a handful of causes and symptoms. First and foremost was the end of the studio system, an extended death rattle than began with the divestiture of studio-owned theaters and ended up dismantling the assembly-line of creative and craftspeople that made the movies, a methodology that was rendered further obsolete by the loud and pricey failures of a series of big-budget, big-studio pictures in the mid-to-late 1960s. Also important, especially early on, was the influence of a lively and rule-breaking foreign cinema, with particular focus on the innovations of the French New Wave. And lip service is usually paid to early American underground filmmakers \u2013 names as aesthetically and thematically diverse as Kenneth Anger, Andy Warhol, and John Cassavetes \u2013 who prompted, at least among their sophisticated audiences, a reevaluation of what cinema was, and what it could be.\nBut not much is said of the documentarians of the 1960s, whose works are typically classified as cin\u00e9ma v\u00e9rit\u00e9 or, more specifically, \u201cdirect cinema.\u201d These filmmakers \u2013 chief among them Jean Rouch in France and, in America, a loose crew consisting of Richard Leacock, D.A. Pennebaker, the Maysles brothers, Robert Drew, and their collaborators \u2013 reinvented documentary cinema, which up to that time had consisted primarily of drab pastiches of archival footage, \u201cvoice of God\u201d narration, and talking heads. They tossed those conventions in favor of a more observational style, capturing events as they happened, thanks to new lightweight cameras and sync-sound recording equipment that enabled them to follow their subjects anywhere they wanted to go. (Those same cameras quickly became the weapon of choice for French New Wavers like Jean-Luc Godard and Francois Truffaut.)\nSixty-plus v\u00e9rit\u00e9 films of the \u201860s are screening in a two-and-a-half week series at New York\u2019s Film Forum, which begins Friday; one film noticeably absent from that series, Salesman (directed by Albert Maysles, David Maysles, and Charlotte Zwerin) begins a one-week restoration/revival run the following Friday at New York\u2019s Metrograph theater. Taken together, they shed some much-needed light on the often understated influence of this non-fiction style on the fiction films that followed them. The series includes a handful of narrative efforts that clearly convey that influence (like Faces and Cleo from 5 to 7), but said influence goes beyond copping the handheld, run-and-gun aesthetic. These films explored a naturalism in staging (and often even with traditional editing) that would, at long last, match the naturalism in acting that was practiced by Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, Warren Beatty, and other students of Method acting, yet was often stifled by the stiffness of the studio style.\nSalesman is particularly telling when viewed through this lens \u2013 functioning, as it does, as a kind of non-fiction Death of a Salesman (or, to put it into a broader historical perspective, as the missing link between Death and Glengarry Glen Ross). The picture features a group of busted out, cigarette-pounding hard cases who sell door-to-door for the Mid-American Bible Co. They can be sorted into familiar dramatic types: the young hotshot, the desperate old-timer on a bad streak, etc. And their conversation often sounds like Miller\u2019s or Mamet\u2019s dialogue: \u201cNo action! I can\u2019t get any action! I can\u2019t see no deals here.\u201d\nThey spend their nights hanging out in motel rooms, trading shop talk and war stories; the camera tags along during the day for their \u201csits,\u201d which are often genuinely uncomfortable, as they practice a methodology that seems a cross between a hard sell and straight-up connery, pitching ornate family bibles to people who clearly can\u2019t afford them. In those living rooms, which function as their little stages, they offer up small talk and bromides (\u201cWhere there\u2019s a will there\u2019s a way, that\u2019s what Charlie Gipper says\u201d). But that confidence falls away in private, and the closing moments of Salesman are, in their own quiet way, a devastating expression of outright despair.\nBut these films are full of private moments like that. Robert Drew\u2019s The Chair tick-tocks the days leading up to a parole board hearing for convicted murderer Paul Crump (who was also the subject of the documentary The People vs. Paul Crump, one of French Connection and Exorcist director William Friedkin\u2019s first films), and details that hearing, making it something of a real-life courtroom drama. But what\u2019s memorable isn\u2019t the lawyers\u2019 speeches, or even the outcome; it\u2019s the moment when defense attorney Donald Moore hangs up the phone, after a priest promises to speak on his client\u2019s behalf, and the lawyer breaks down in tears of relief and exhaustion. That is good drama.\nAnd Drew\u2019s cameras were lucky enough to catch it. From surveying these films, it seems much of a director\u2019s gift comes from simply being invisible \u2013 no one more than the great Frederick Wiseman, who genuinely seems to just walk into his locations and start shooting. In his 1968 feature High School (one of five Wiseman films screening at Film Forum), he\u2019s merely observing the day-to-day comings and goings at Philadelphia\u2019s Northeast High; he\u2019s not following a new teacher through their first year, or whatever structural device a lesser filmmaker might\u2019ve leaned on. Because he\u2019s not looking for anything in particular, he\u2019s open to everything, from sex ed lectures mired in \u201850s morality (\u201cThe more girls or fellas a person gets into bed with, the higher the rate of divorce\u201d) to background acknowledgments of a trickier present, like a classroom collage titled \u201cOUR TROUBLED WORLD.\u201d And, by just being around, he happens to be there on the day of Martin Luther King Jr.\u2019s assassination, capturing the raw, no-holds-barred discussions it prompts between students and teachers.\nSimilar luck befell Pennebaker when he chose to profile Jane Fonda for his 1962 film Jane, which documents the rehearsals, previews, and quick closing of her Broadway debut, a sex farce called The Fun Couple \u2013 a run ended by a nasty (and casually sexist) pan by New York theater critic Walter Kerr, which Fonda helpfully reads aloud as she first lays eyes upon it. \u201cBoy that is depressing,\u201d she notes, midway through; as she thinks about it after, she adds \u201cOh, God, it really is like needles.\u201d And his cameras are there before the curtain, when their stage manager informs the company, \u201cWe\u2019re gonna close tonight, after the performance.\u201d (HAVE A GOOD SHOW, EVERYBODY!!) It\u2019s rather a shocking turn of events, and a reminder of the power of a good documentary \u2013 because you couldn\u2019t stage this kind of drama convincingly.\nJane\u2019s private moments, again, are the most telling \u2013 though perhaps in a different way than The Chair or Salesman\u2019s. We see her in her dressing room, battling nerves, chattering about this or that, unguarded in a way that seems like she forgot the camera was there- but the things is, she almost certainly didn\u2019t. This is a performer, after all, and one of the most fascinating elements of these films is the manner in which their celebrity subjects choose to present themselves to the documentary camera (other films in the series profile Muhammad Ali, Truman Capote, Marlon Brando, James Baldwin, Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus, Bob Dylan, Buster Keaton, and more).\nThat\u2019s what makes Shirley Clarke\u2019s 1967 film Portrait of Jason so revelatory. Aside from the content \u2013 the candid confessions of its only interview subject, a hustler, houseboy, bullshitter, and raconteur named Jason Holliday, who is explicit about homosexuality in a way mainstream and narrative cinema couldn\u2019t be at the time \u2013 it is very much about the line between persona and person. It is, for much of its 105 minute running time, a performance, complete with requests (\u201cHey, Jason, tell the cop story,\u201d \u201cTell me the story about the old man\u201d). But as Jason drinks, and gets progressively slurrier, he seems to run out of prepared material. And then it gets really interesting, transforming from an interview to a therapy session, an iron-clad guard finally, truly coming down. (I think.)\nIt\u2019s also a film acutely aware of its own filminess. Clarke opens with the ephemera most movies discard: slating, off-screen chatter, Holiday introducing himself (and then welcoming himself to another take). As each reel runs out, and the long night of filming continues, Clarke leaves in the new slates, and allows the screen to go black when the image runs out before the audio, cutting out in mid-song, mid-sentence, even mid-word. Portrait of Jason ends up not only deconstructing the interview process, but that of moviemaking itself.\nWhich brings us, as it must, to 1PM, initially intended as a Jean-Luc Godard-directed snapshot of America\u2019s imminent revolution, to be shot by Leacock and Pennebaker. But when the revolution didn\u2019t happen, Godard abandoned the film \u2013 leaving Pennebaker to cut it into something perhaps more noteworthy. It opens with Godard in their office, laying out his plan: to shoot real events and interviews with counterculture figures, and then reenact them with actors and actresses, often in continuous takes. Pennebaker then includes those free-flowing observational scenes, some staged, some clearly and uncomfortably not, but as Leacock\u2019s camera was capturing what Godard wanted, Pennebaker\u2019s was capturing Godard himself, directing the action, viewing footage, coaching the actors. He ends up with, in effect, a deconstruction of a deconstruction.\nThe closing credits of 1PM are telling, using as they do the credit \u201cFilmed by Jean-Luc Godard / Richard Leacock / D.A. Pennebaker,\u201d rather than the traditional \u201cdirected by.\u201d Other films of the era are similarly non-proprietary; often we\u2019ll merely see the phrase \u201cFilmmakers,\u201d followed by a list of names. It doesn\u2019t seem like false modesty; they simply did not see themselves as directors, who orchestrated events, but rather as observers who filmed them. Of course, that\u2019s rubbish; they were making choices all the time, from what person or event or movement they were going to shoot to where they were going to put and point the camera when they got there to how much (if any) they\u2019d use in the editing room. They made those decisions together, in those collaborative and cooperative units, and they became a style, an aesthetic, that would inform nothing less than the rest of cinema.\n\u201c\u201960s V\u00e9rit\u00e9\u201d runs January 19 through February 6 at Film Forum in New York City. \u201cSalesman\u201d runs January 26 through February 1 at NYC\u2019s Metrograph.\nAlbert Maysles Cinema Verite D.

        "raw_content": "A Master\u2019s Degree in Business Administration (MBA) has long been recognized as prerequisite for advancing up the business and corporate ladder. While two-year MBA programs have traditionally been the norm in North America, Europe\u2019s long time and popular accelerated format for earning an MBA has gained wide acceptance and popularity in Canada and the United States. These programs allow students to complete their MBA in as little as 12 months at a significantly lower tuition cost.\nWhat is An Accelerated Master\u2019s in Business Administration?\nAn accelerated MBA program works best for those students who intend to stay in the same industry and need to increase their depth of knowledge and skills in their chosen field. A student who chooses an accelerated program must have a strong background and understanding of business administration fundamentals to successfully complete the program. Schedules for accelerated programs vary from five days a week or alternating weekends. All of the programs are intense.\nSurveys of MBA students and alumni who entered an accelerated MBA alternative reveal a strong drive to get into a program, complete it and return to the work force in the shortest time possible. In fact, 82 percent of those surveyed in 2012 agreed that this was their intent because they realized that an MBA would increase their earning power. A 2009 review of pre-MBA salaries indicated an average yearly salary of $55,000. A post-MBA salary rose to $95, 000. There was clearly a long time return on investment.\nEnrollment in an accelerated program requires commitment and discipline to studies. Students report that 15 hours of outside classroom study is the weekly norm. The classroom environment is fast paced and, as one student noted, \u201cexhausting.\u201d The work is worth it.\nThe downside to most accelerated programs is that there is no time for an internship that is typically part of a two-year program. Students often rely on an internship as an opportunity for real world experience and a possible job when they graduate.\nThe Wilfrid Laurier University School of Business and Economics Accelerated MBA Program\nLaurier University was founded in 1911 and has grown to become one of the best and most respected universities in Canada. Laurier\u2019s School of Business & Economics introduced its accelerated MBA option at the Waterloo campus in 1986. It is one of the few schools to offer a 12-month program. The growth of Laurier University\u2019s MBA program has been due, in part, to the reduction of foreign students being allowed to enter the United States on student visas and is seen as an excellent graduate program alternative to studying in their home country.\nThe core program is structured to meet five days a week from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM \u2014 for 12 months. During terms 2 and 3 electives are offered from 8:30 AM to 9:50 PM. The program attracts older, already employed students who have an undergraduate business degree and want to advance in their careers, as well as students fresh from undergraduate studies.\n4 Tips for Picking Promotional Flash Drives",

        "raw_content": "Van's Random Thoughts\nI have come to realize that I have a lot of random thoughts. I have a lot of opinions, ideas, reflections and advice. Most of this stuff is pretty useless, but I feel that I should write it down because you never know what might happen. If one of the things I think of turns out to be worth something...and you steal it, I will sue your ass.\nI feel sorry for fat people because the hip-hop community has made wearing baggy pants so popular. All the stores are probably sold out, thus preventing fat people from finding jeans that fit. This is disturbing because we don't want fat people walking around without pants on.\nAttention attractive young white chicks: If you are considering getting a tattoo, just get a couple of small ones. You don't need to be ruining yourself with big ugly ass tattoos. But, if for some reason you absolutely must get a big one, get \"Property of VAN AMMONS\" tattooed in big letters on your ass. That would be pretty cool.\nAlso, stay away from ugly ass body piercings! Getting your ears, tongue, navel, and pussy pierced is cool...but not your eye brows, lips or nose. Remember, you're not running around in the jungles of Africa, so stay away from the ugly stuff.\nI don't understand why some people get so excited about Cell Phones, Palm Pilots and BlackBerrys.. Some people even walk around with them prominently displayed on their belts. It's as if they think it's some sort of status symbol or something. Well, it's definitely a symbol - a symbol that the person might (just might) be a dork. If you don't believe me, just take a look at Algore. (aka \"L. Ron Algore\"). If you're not an \"Algore\" then don't take offense!\nI think that retarded kids are more creative that the rest of us. Leave it up to a retarded kid to fall his ass off The Drop Zone at Paramount's Great America near San Francisco. I've been on that ride several times, and even if I wanted to fall out, I'm not creative enough to figure out a way to do it. That takes some real ingenuity!\nAnyone who knows anything about biology knows that attractive face genes are in every cell of a hot chick's body. Every cell. This also means that ugly face genes are in every cell of an ugly chick's body. This is the reason why the \"It doesn't matter what she looks like when the lights are off\" theory and the \"Just put a bag over her head\" theory are both bogus. Even with the lights off or when the bag is on her head, you're still going to be touching her and those ugly face genes are all through her body. You sure don't want to be doing that now do you?\nI'm not as big a fan of huge breast implants as you might think. Don't get me wrong, I think it's fine for chicks to get real big tits, but if I'm really interested in a chick because she has an awesome face, ass and legs, I wouldn't necessarily ask her to get them. I mean, if she's really that good looking you can probably overlook small tits.\nI would make the worst pimp ever. I have really high standards, so I'd only want really hot chicks in my stable. After all, who wants to employ ugly chicks? Anyway, since my girls would be so hot, I wouldn't want any other guys doing them for less than $1,000. And because I wouldn't let my girls sleep with other guys for less than a grand, my little enterprise wouldn't generate much cash since most guys couldn't afford it...and that's no way to run a business.\nI'm pretty sure that lesbians are born genetically the way they are. Let's face it, most of those lesbians look like dudes and they couldn't ever hope to look feminine. That's what leads me to believe that they are genetically fucked up. This, however, is no excuse for being ugly, and people should treat lesbians like the ugly ass women that they are.\nOn the other hand, I'm not completely sure about all the \"bi-sexual\" stuff with women these days. If the girl looks like a dude, she is a lesbian. If she's \"Hot Looking\" there is a good chance she is probably straight. I think the main reason that so many good looking women engage in \"bi-sexual\" activity is because it's trendy and it gets them lots of attention from guys. I must stress though, that I have no problem whatsoever with watching two hot chicks eat each other. Watching chicks fuck each other seems pretty normal to me!\nI would really like to see Britney Spears get into an all-out cat fight with Christina Aguilera. Either that, or I'd like to watch them eat each other. I guess I really don't care one way or the other.\nIsn't it about time that Jennifer Lopez and Christina Aguilera got their big ugly noses fixed? And why in the world doesn't someone tell Jennifer (J-HO) to start working on that big fat butt of hers? Or should I say...start working OFF that big fat butt of hers. Her ass is fucking huge and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Who knows, with her nose fixed and a smaller ass she might find something other than black guys and a few stupid white guys that want to fuck her.\nSpeaking of big ugly noses, what about Barbara Streisand? That is one ugly ass woman! She always has been! She is paying poor James Brolin ten million dollars just for marrying her. The kicker to the deal is that he has to stick it out for ten years to collect. He definitely got the bad end of that deal getting only a million a year to be with that obnoxious ugly ass bitch!\nIf you have ever listened to Jennifer Lopez, Barbara Streisand, Pink, Madona, Jewel or Julia Roberts attempt to carry on an intelligent conversation you would definitely conclude that they aren't the brightest bulbs on the tree.. That's too bad. Barbara and Julia appear to easily be the least intelligent in that group. They both babble a lot.\nHave you noticed that no one ever seems to get very close to Jewel, Pink or Courtney Love? I wonder if it's because they always look like they smell and need a bath?\nI don't understand why people watch award shows. Most of those people are real obnoxious, so why do you want to sit around, watch a boring ceremony, and witness huge golden statues being handed over to these people?\nNobody has ever experienced \"400 years of oppression.\" You know who you are so stop whining and get over it.\nImportant Things I've Learned From Watching TV And Movies\nLarge loft apartments in New York City are plentiful and affordable, even if the tenants are unemployed.\nOne of a pair of identical twins is always evil.\nAll bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they are going to blow up and kill you.\nShould you decide to defuse a bomb, don't worry about which wire to cut...because you will always choose the right one.\nIt doesn't matter if you are greatly outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts. Your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one... dancing around in a threatening manner until you have dispatched their predecessors.\nWhen you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your bedroom will still be clearly visible but slightly blue.\nOn TV it's possible to be a world-famous expert on nuclear fission, dinosaurs, heiroglyphics and international law, all by the age of 22...but only if you are blonde, good looking and have big tits.\nHonest and hard-working policemen are usually gunned down a day or two before retirement.\nRather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their enemies using complex machinery involving fuses, deadly gasses, lasers, buzz saws and hungry sharks, all of which will give their captives at least 20 minutes to escape.\nDuring all crime investigations it is always necessary to visit at least one strip club.\nAll beds have special L-shaped covers that go all the way up to a womans tits but only reach the waist of the man lying beside her.\nMost grocery shopping bags contain at least one French bread and one bunch of carrots with leaf tops.\nIt's easy to land a jet plane, providing there is someone in the control tower to talk you down.\nIf a girl is beautiful, her makeup never rubs off, even while scuba-diving or fighting aliens...however, if she is fat, her mascara will automatically run and her lipstick will smear.\nThe ventilation system of any building is the perfect hiding place. No one will ever think of looking for you in there, and you can travel to any other part of the building without difficulty.\nYou're very likely to survive any battle in any war unless you make the mistake of showing someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.\nShould you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it is not necessary to speak the language. A German accent will do.\nA man will show no pain while taking the most horrific beating, but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds.\nWhen staying in a haunted house, women must investigate any strange noises in their most diaphanous underwear, which is what they happened to be wearing when the car broke down.\nIf someone says \"I'll be right back\", they won't.\nEven when driving down a perfectly straight road, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel from side to side.\nA police detective can only solve a case after he has been suspended from duty.\nIf you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone around you will be able to mirror all the steps you come up with, and hear the music that's playing in your head.\nPolice departments give their officers personality tests to make sure each is assigned a partner who is their total opposite.\nWhen they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other.\nThat's all for now...watch for more later!",

        "title": "Fraternal Thoughts: A Future Without Fraternity Houses",
        "raw_content": "A Future Without Fraternity Houses\nWhat if we, as fraternities and sororities, decided to no longer be in the housing business?\nBefore you fight back, I\u2019m only wondering at this point. Although, the more I wonder, the more I think the next era of fraternity may feature fewer and fewer houses. Or none at all.\nI am a product of a fraternity house. I lived in one all of my college years except for my freshman year. Beyond some great memories, the experience of living in a house taught me a lot about relationships, leadership, and life. The house taught us all responsibility, including the importance of keeping it clean.\nWe didn\u2019t do a very good job at that. My mom cried every August when her and dad would leave me behind at the house. It was a shipwreck. A shipwreck that I loved. It\u2019s hard for me at times to separate my fraternity experience from my fraternity house experience.\nBut despite my love for my house experience, I\u2019m fairly certain that if given a chance to establish a brand new fraternity system on a given campus, I would opt away from houses. Why? Risk and liability mostly. No stairs, balconies, flammable couches, or overloaded electrical outlets that I would be responsible for.\nFinancial reasons also play a role. If you build a house, you have to fill it. Students these days are not as likely as I was to put up with bare-bones amenities and communal living. For instance, a growing number of residence hall rooms are singles or suites that have private bathrooms.\nThere was NOTHING private about the bathroom in my fraternity house.\nThis trend shows itself on so many campuses. How many fraternities on your campus, for example, can only get their freshmen/sophomores to live in the house? How many have had to institute mandatory live-in policies or a penalty fee if members choose to live \u201cout-of-house?\u201d\nSpeaking of on-campus residence halls, how can we continue to compete with those? Colleges and universities are pouring big dollars into their lodging options in order to stay competitive. Most campuses have new shiny buildings that make parents temporarily crazy enough to pay exorbitant fees for their sons or daughters to live there. Keeping up with the Jones\u2019s may bankrupt us.\nMany of our houses nationwide were built during our boom years of the 70's and 80's. That's a lot of wear and tear, and a major period of repairs, upgrades, and rebuilding is upon us. Are the tens of millions of dollars worth it?\nThe work of a fraternity house corporation is getting harder and harder. I have to think many of them would find private relief in boarding up the house and having members make other arrangements versus trying to keep the place running.\nI have to think fraternity headquarters and boards would also find some relief, especially on the insurance side.\nSome campuses have handed over the fraternity dwellings to the university entirely. They are now owned and operated by the host institutions, which means they set the rules and could change their mind any given year. I don\u2019t see this as an ideal solution either. We might as well just move on.\nBefore you argue against the idea of no more houses, you have to answer the question: is a fraternity house essential for a fraternity experience. I conducted an unscientific poll on this question a couple of years ago on this blog, and the highest percentage by far said a house wasn\u2019t critical.\nIf a house is essential, why are so many brand-new fraternities and sororities (including colonies) some of our highest-performing? They are likely to meet in a classroom on campus and then live scattered in many halls, apartments, and houses.\nHouses weren\u2019t written into our Rituals, or into our constitutions from the beginning. Every fraternity in America has chapters that do not have houses, yet consider them equal brothers or sisters in every way.\nSo why would there even be a debate? It hardly seems worth it to have a house these days. Well, there is a very believable theory that members who have the house experience have a deeper fraternity connection and thus are more engaged with the fraternity as alumni. The invention of the fraternity house may have been a big reason for our sustained success over time. Maybe the solution is MORE houses, not fewer.\nFraternities still need a place for fellowship and to conduct their business. But does that require a house? Meeting lodges - which some campuses already have - could be a good option. If we put our money and attention towards fraternity spaces, and not fraternity dwellings, then maybe we would have a lot fewer headaches and a strategy to meet the future.\nCan you imagine a future without houses for fraternities and sororities? Despite the fact that woke up and went to bed in one for three great years, I can.\nNot only can I imagine it, I lived it. No fraternity houses on my campus. We still accomplished great things.\nSusan DuMont October 17, 2012 at 12:08 PM\nThose of us who didn't live in a house but had an incredible Greek Experiences can absolutely imagine a future without houses. A future where members who live together over the years do it entirely by choice or members of one chapter live with members of another chapter, gasp! Members in communities without greek housing eat in a dining hall with unaffiliated students, study in public spaces, and are able to select members on qualities that do not include their interest or willingness to move in.\nI joined at a small campus and my chapter was generally small (under 50 members). Thinking about one semester, I can name at least 4 campus suites that had a member of multiple chapters living together and I'm sure if I thought hard I could come up with many, many more. That is such a valuable experience and can really help make a 'system' a true Greek Community.\nAs a consultant I visited a lot of housed chapters and while most members would echo your sentiment of loving their housed experience, I also saw how damning a house could be in recruitment and how much the physical structure impacts the general chapter health.\nAs a campus based professional with a community that is not housed now, when members here talk about wanting housing I can't help but groan internally. They have such a great, well rounded community experience that includes members interacting very often, not only with members from other chapters, but with members in other chapters from other councils because they eat together, study together, meet in the same classrooms at night, and therefore then partner for service events and mixers. In my mind that interaction is one of the characteristics of the future of relevant Fraternity & Sorority Communities. We must support and enhance diverse interactions and when our chapters are separated by their physical structures those interactions are limited to the artificially created moments or social events.\nLike you said, a lack of housing does present some campus challenges for meetings, recruitment spaces, locations for chapter retreats and initiations. I watch the students I work with creatively problem solve, share share meeting spaces, work out issues when their reservations conflict, and partner with local community organizations for space. I think that those problem solving and planning skills are as useful down the road as the skill of decorating a bulletin board to schedule the house chores.\nNathaniel Dreyfuss October 17, 2012 at 9:04 PM\nIs any Fraternity house perfect? Of course not. They will always be beset by risk management issues; house chores that are skipped; expensive maintenance and repairs. But what the Author fails to realize is that the University arms race to build \u201cperfect,\u201d isolated, and sterile communities in the Dorms is exactly the type of Balkanization of young lives that Fraternities ought to stand against.\nBy living together, we become better brothers and sisters, more engaged with our chapters, our alumni, and our university. Brothers are forced into roles of responsibility available nowhere else. They are forced to hold each other accountable, to look out for each other, and to care for a legacy that has physical embodiment. We become closer precisely because we are bound together by not just an organization and creed, but a place.\nThus, this article could not be more fundamentally wrong. A Fraternity House is more than mere real property and tort liability. It is better described as a Home. My Fraternity House was the defining location for four years of my life. My best friends were made In that house; my best memories Still reside there. When I return to my campus in fifty years, that house will still stand, a testament to the people who live and have lived there, who work and donate and care for her every day.\nbachstrad2010 October 17, 2012 at 10:28 PM\nI started at a chapter without a house and then transferred to a school where the chapter did have a house. Both can work. Living in a house has brought me closer to my brothers. As house manager, I have developed skills that will no doubt be of use when I graduate. Living in a house without the watchful eye of Residential Life is a great way to transition into learning how to live on your own. Paying bills on time, keeping a clean house, cooking your own food all are part of growing up and fraternity houses definitely provide a benefit to those who choose to live in them.\nChad Ellsworth October 18, 2012 at 9:06 AM\nI have a somewhat unique experience as a member of an organization that lost its chapter house for financial reasons. Once the financial albatross of the chapter house was no longer around our necks (and, I admit, we also compromised our standards for membership to some degree because we were trying to \"fill the house\"), we became much closer as friends and brothers.\nJeff Pelletier October 18, 2012 at 3:50 PM\nThis topic came up somewhat tangentially in a meeting yesterday about, of all things, hazing prevention. I'm sure there's an argument to be made that the existence of a chapter facility makes members more prone to subject their new members hazing, under the guise of tradition. It gives them a central location to conduct such operations, conceivably hidden from the University or Central Headquarters eyes.\nInterestingly, the comment came from a NPHC member, who did not come of age in a chapter facility, and who advises her chapter here without a house. To some, the house represents a marker, a home base, a physical place to identify as a cohesive unit. And, one would assume, a place of safety and refuge from the underhanded hazing that may still go on. I don't know that there's evidence that points to more or less hazing that occurs at chapters with or without a facility, but it made me wonder. If we all knew where each chapter congregated, wouldn't we be better equipped to identify who's acting in accordance with their values (and those of the campus), and who isn't?\nPhysical space on campus is a crucial part of students' development. A recent study through the Association of College Unions International http://en.calameo.com/read/000001840eb27a81e0a9c offers some more thoughts on that topic. To our members, the chapter house may be a \"third space\" for them to exist between home (the residence hall or their apartment) and their work (the classroom) - so the impact of this discussion affects the whole chapter, not just the ones who are living in.\nCan I see a future without housing? Sure. I'm an advisor and house corporation member, so I can see many ways that makes my life easier, and perhaps creates time I can give back to my men in another way. Is that the \"right\" future? Call me undecided at this point.\nDean Eiden October 18, 2012 at 10:52 PM\nPart of the reason you want to become a member of a fraternity is because you enjoy the company of the other members. Living together helps strengthen the bonds of friendship and creates many lasting memories that brothers carry with them forever.\nA fraternity starts with FRIENDSHIP. And where is a better place to build brotherhood, share ideas AND work together as a team then in the chapter house? It comes down to FIDELITY. Being faithful and loyal to your brothers that you share a house with.\nMarc Dumas October 19, 2012 at 1:32 PM\nI went to a school with no Chapter Housing. I helped found my Chapter some 20 years ago. Every so often someone comes back from a road trip or a National meeting pining for a Chapter House. I remind them that it's not a House, but the Chapter that makes your experience great. Granted we are in an urban area (Chicago) where housing would be past insanely expensive, but to my chapter (where I'm no the Chapter Advisor) our motto is \"no house, no problem.\" They are still the biggest chapter on campus, turn in the most commjunity service hours, raise the most money, get decent grades and have the most fun. We win national awards for the things we do and were finalist for the Outstanding Chapter. Housing isn't what you need to be great, good members are what get you to great.\nJohn Bloom October 30, 2012 at 10:56 AM\nJohn and I were Greeks on the same campus, although decades apart and I may be the oldest (67) to reply thus far. Have times changed, you bet. Are houses both a liability and an asset, you bet. Are houses PROBABLY more a liability than an asset for the reasons John and others have mentioned, you bet.\nHere are some additional points to consider. For those alums used to living in a house, whether 27 or 67, the house was a central, easily located, meeting place. When returning to campus for homecoming (possibly also a dinosaur of the past), where do alums meet and greet? For an alum to meet an undergrad f-t-f, he could use Facebook, Tweet, I-Phones, but how many of my generation are adept at doing so?\nHmmm, that makes me wonder why it is important to keep alums involved. I know, I know. We are not Greeks for four years but for a lifetime, but in the past we needed to keep in touch with alums so that they would step forward when we needed their financial support to remodel the house or build a new one, right?\nAnd on my campus the guys had fraternity houses and the women had sorority suites in the residence halls (formerly known as dorms). Was it the guys or the gals who had more expense when it came to upkeep of their facilities? After all, there were no beer blasts in or around the residence halls, was there? And how many times did a sorority order a truckload of sand delivered to a suite in order to have a beach party?\nAnd another thing that is passe. Food service. Not only are fraternity house managers mostly unemployed but so is the kitchen crew. In our fast food, eat any time you want night or day, world few fraternity houses still provide food service, so the kitchen itself is also a dinosaur in a house that is a dinosaur.\nJust more food for thought!\nGeorge Horstmann October 31, 2012 at 12:15 PM\nI am part of the Greek life at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and we have a fraternity house. I could not imagine being in a fraternity without a fraternity house. I have lived in the house for two years now and I would say my experience of fraternity life would be less than half of what it is now if we did not have a house. Living at the house I have learned brotherhood, faith, friendship, and respect. With fraternities these days having so much money I really don't think houses will disappear. If anything they will get bigger and more will be built. When you have a house its like your part of more. Like you are part of it and have a place to call your own. When you have a house there is always somewhere to hang out and party.\nAllissabeth Dunbar October 31, 2012 at 3:27 PM\nI don't think it would be a good idea to rid of the houses because personally I think it is a place where Greeks can come together and bond. Ridding of these houses would take away an important part of what we, as a Greek community, belong to.\nAllissabeth Dunbar\nUniversity of Louisiana @ Lafayette\nLori Lapoint October 31, 2012 at 3:36 PM\nI personally do not think they should get rid of the fraternity houses. Being a member of a sorority at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, I understand how much the houses can bring everyone together and closer as friends. We use our houses for everything, such as meetings, fundraisers, study time, bonding, etc. Without our house, we would be lost; therefore, I'm sure the frat boys would feel the same way without their house.\nLori Lapoint\nsam barnes October 31, 2012 at 3:53 PM\nI go to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and I am part of the great Greek community we have there. I believe having a house is a huge necessity for a fraternity. It is the central spot where we have meetings to handle business and also to party. Members of our fraternity are always there and I think that is a big part in keeping the brotherhood is always being around each other. This is why i couldn't imagine not having a fraternity house.\nComing from a campus tt has off campus housing for the fraternities but not the sororities, I sometimes find myself being jealous ofother campuses that allow the girls to live in their houses. All the sororities on my campus have houses, but we do not have living quarters. I feel if we were allowed to live in our houses, we would have a stronger sisterhood.\nJen Whipple\nUniversity of Louisiana at Lafayette, Greek Community\nI am a student at The University of Louisiana and coming from someone who lost their fraternity house, living in a house is a lot better than to not have a house. Having a house makes it easy for everyone in the chapter to come together and have a place to hang out. The fraternity house is always a fun place to be and it helps bring brothers closer together. Not having a house is hard on the entire chapter and can cause a lack of participation from the chapter.\n-Brennan Delahoussaye\nLogan J. Skew November 6, 2012 at 1:22 AM\nhii!! thats a great blog\nOff Campus Housing in US\nFraternity without a house is more like a social club than a place where you develop lifelong friendships and bonds. The sororities at my alma mater have over 120 members and only sophomores live in. Most seniors and some juniors never meet, let alone become friends with, their younger sisters.\nLaser Patent December 14, 2012 at 4:59 AM\nNorman Jacob April 9, 2013 at 12:44 AM\nSome interesting and challenging thoughts on this. It's important to remember first and foremost the role that chapter houses have traditionally played in the history of the Greek community in America. After all, at some schools, the question is still asked, \"What house did you pledge?\" For many chapters at many schools, \"the house\" isn't just a part of the chapter, it IS the chapter.\nBringing up chapters that have been founded in the last 5-10 years and are currently unhoused as an example of why houses are no longer needed is totally irrelevant. You may say they are \"performing better\", but by what metric is this even being measured? GPA? Retention? The process of starting a chapter is arguably so different now than it was even 30 or 40 years ago that while two chapters may share the same letters and brotherhood, you will find the dynamics of a chapter founded in 1907 and a chapter founded in 2007 to be so opposite that they're not even comparable. New chapters now are \"colonies\", chapters 40 years ago were \"founding locals\" that became active chapters after several years of independent operation. New chapters now are made up of members carefully handpicked by HQ expansion directors and persuaded to join with \"scholarship incentives\" - no wonder their GPAs may be a little higher. Older chapters don't have that particular benefit, but what we do have is an established chapter culture that gives us our unique identity, something that a 5 year old chapter won't have a for a long time. For many established chapters, that identity revolves around their house.\nIt's been said that a house without a family is not a home. The bottom line is that this applies to fraternities too. While establishing the \"family\" certainly comes before finding the \"home\", having a house is an opportunity no chapter should be without. The fraternity house is an establishment of the Greek culture in the United States, and for many chapters, the house has become an expression of their very brotherhood itself.\nA Fraternity is Like Facebook",

        "raw_content": "The malign US interference in Venezuela goes back more than a century. For decades the idea of \u201cVenezuelan democracy\u201d was a US-inflected oxymoron. When Venezuela somehow elected Hugo Ch\u00e1vezpresident in 1999 \u2013 legitimately \u2013 turnout was 63%, and Ch\u00e1vez won 56% of the vote (both better numbers than the 2016 US presidential election). Ch\u00e1vez was a leader of failed coups in 1992 that tried to topple the corrupt kleptocracy of then-president Carlos Andr\u00e9s P\u00e9rez, who had been elected promising to resist US meddling, only to become a corrupt tool of it (and impeached in 1993). The US responded to the democratic process in Venezuela with at least one coup attempt in 2002 and chronic economic warfare for two decades. Despite its oil, Venezuela has not prospered and remains a country of about 31 million people, one in five of whom are poor.\nIn 1983, Abrams supported the US invasion of Grenada. He also pushed for a full-scale invasion of Nicaragua, where he was already involved in the support of the terrorist Contras against the Sandinista government. When Congress cut off support to the Contras, Abrams was involved in the criminal activities of the so-called Iran-Contra operation that included selling drugs to support the Contras and shipping arms to Iran to support the Contras. Abrams escaped serious consequences for his crimes, pleading guilty in 1991 to two counts of lying to Congress. Without remorse, Abrams wrote what he thought of his prosecutors: \u201cYou miserable filthy bastards, you bloodsuckers.\u201d The first President Bush pardoned himand five other Iran-Contra criminals on Christmas Eve 1992. (These pardons were supported by current attorney-general nominee William Barr.)\nOriginal Post: https://readersupportednews.org/opinion2/277-75/54818-rsn-career-war-criminal-elliott-abrams-to-lead-us-on-venezuela",

Amen.\nListen to me, O coastlands, pay attention, you peoples from far away! The LORD called me before I was born, while I was in my mother's womb he named me. He made my mouth like a sharp sword, in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me a polished arrow, in his quiver he hid me away. And he said to me, \"You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.\" But I said, \"I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity; yet surely my cause is with the LORD, and my reward with my God.\" And now the LORD says, who formed me in the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob back to him, and that Israel might be gathered to him, for I am honoured in the sight of the LORD, and my God has become my strength -- he says, \"It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the survivors of Israel; I will give you as a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.\" Thus says the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel and his Holy One, to one deeply despised, abhorred by the nations, the slave of rulers, \"Kings shall see and stand up, princes, and they shall prostrate themselves, because of the LORD, who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.\"\n1. I waited patiently for the LORD:\n2. He brought me up from the pit of roaring waters, out of the mire and clay:\nand set my feet upon a rock, and made firm my foothold.\n3. And he has put a new song in my mouth:\neven a song of thanksgiving to our God.\n4. Many shall see it and fear:\nand shall put their trust in the LORD.\n5. Blessed are those who have made the LORD their hope:\nwho have not turned to the proud, or to those who wander in deceit.\n14. O LORD, do not withhold your mercy from me:\nlet your loving - kindness and your truth ever preserve me.\nPaul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes, To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, together with all those who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that has been given you in Christ Jesus, for in every way you have been enriched in him, in speech and knowledge of every kind -- just as the testimony of Christ has been strengthened among you -- so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ. He will also strengthen you to the end, so that you may be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful; by him you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.\nJohn 1:29-42 ... Glory to you Lord Jesus Christ.\nThe next day John the Baptist saw Jesus coming toward him and declared, \"Here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me because he was before me.' I myself did not know him; but I came baptising with water for this reason, that he might be revealed to Israel.\" And John testified, \"I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him. I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptise with water said to me, 'He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain is the one who baptises with the Holy Spirit.' And I myself have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.\" The next day John again was standing with two of his disciples, and as he watched Jesus walk by, he exclaimed, \"Look, here is the Lamb of God!\" The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus. When Jesus turned and saw them following, he said to them, \"What are you looking for?\" They said to him, \"Rabbi\" (which translated means Teacher), \"where are you staying?\" He said to them, \"Come and see.\" They came and saw where he was staying, and they remained with him that day. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon. One of the two who heard John speak and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. He first found his brother Simon and said to him, \"We have found the Messiah\" (which is translated Anointed). He brought Simon to Jesus, who looked at him and said, \"You are Simon son of John. You are to be called Cephas\" (which is translated Peter). For the Gospel of the Lord, praise to you Lord Jesus Christ.",

And prophetic voices have been declaring that it is time for the Church (i.e. Christ-followers) in South Africa to lead society in this season so that the nation can fulfil its divine destiny to impact the continent.\nOlanipekun\u2019s book, Nation Building \u2014 A Biblical Perspective, offers a wealth of revelation and practical guidance on the subject, amply-backed by Scriptural references, making it a valuable \u2014 and challenging \u2014 resource for the growing company of Kingdom nation builders.\nThe author was called into ministry in the land of his birth, Nigeria, at the age of 19, with a focus on nations. Over a period of more than three decades he has pioneered prayer schools in Nigeria and Kenya, as well as marketplace initiatives including the Pretoria-based Institute for Christian Leadership Development, the Africa Leadership Summit (a biennial leadership summit in Jerusalem), and the Africa-Israel Chamber of Commerce.\nThe book provides a biblical basis for nation building \u2014 going back to the Abrahamic Covenant and God\u2019s original and enduring model for a great nation \u2014 the nation of Israel. Holistically and systematically it discusses the key elements of a great nation (family, church, leaders, institutions and more); the role of the Church, the Holy Spirit and prayer in nation building; spirit systems that weaken nations and godly systems for transforming weak nations into great nations; and the redeeming of nations.\nHere are a few excerpts from the book to whet your appetite:\nGod\u2019s purposes on earth are not limited to the salvation of souls, great churches and great businesses to support great churches, but God actually seeks great nations.\nWe need to progress from \u201cmoaning over Saul\u201d to anointing the Davids in every city and every sphere of society. We need to progress from corrupt, deluded fathers of modern democracies to real fathers who are clothed in Abrahamic mantles, able to lay a solid foundation for society, and also able to reflect our Heavenly Father to society. This is the journey that God is inviting the church to undertake by the leading of the Holy Spirit and illumination of Scripture in this season.\nBeing biblical in nation building does not amount to discrimination against non-believers in Christ, being biblical means to give to the unbeliever and the nation the benefit of our knowledge and experience of the truth and to protect our common heritage.\nNation Building \u2014 A Biblical Perspective can be purchased as an ebook from https://www.smashwords.com.

Living in the forest. Coming out at night trying to get food. Or do whatever damage they could to the Germans. The Nazis. Basically shooting, you know. I mean just regular battles. And then going back into hiding.\nMy father said that a lot of what they did is they tried to derail a lot of the transportation aspects of the Nazis coming into Germany. They would blow up some bridges. They would blow up train tracks. They would start fires. Forest fires in front of them. Again, coming out at night with whatever weapons and ammunition that they had.\nFor two and a half years they-- my parents-- did live in the caves [and] come out at night. My mother was very badly wounded in a skirmish one evening. This I believe happened in September of 1941 where she was wounded in the upper right leg. And my father felt that she was about to lose her leg, and wanted to get her medical attention. At that point he actually left me with his friends. I mean this was a very, very close knit group. A lot of them actually escaped together out of Russia after the war.\nThis group of friends took care of me for about nine weeks, while my father took my mother for medical attention. Where he took her, he never did tell me, but he came back. I was still there. I was, according to them, very, very ill. I had bad dysentery\u2026diphtheria, but I was still alive, and I survived all my illnesses.

NDTV delivers reliable information across all platforms: TV, Internet and Mobile. The court made it clear that the new cases would be heard once a decision is given during the day on the review petitions. After the orders on the review petitions, we will deal with these writ petitions. The Kerala government on the other hand which has vowed to implement the verdict said that it has not yet decided on what to do.\nA plea filed by National Ayyappa Devotees Association (NADA), which has sought review of the verdict, had said that \"the notion that the judgment under review is revolutionary, one which removes the stigma or the concept of dirt or pollution associated with menstruation, is unfounded\". Legal experts also said that since no stay has been clamped on the operation of the earlier verdict, it was up to the government to decide whether to allow women entry into the shrine pending a final order.\nAs pointed out by If Not Now (dot org) Creative Director Rafael Shimunov, the video appeared first in the Twitter feed of P.J. When the White House accused one of your peers of \"placing his hands\" on a White House intern, how did you react? .\nThree fresh writ petitions on the issue filed by G Vijayakumar, S Jaya Raj Kumar and Shylaja Vijayan were also scheduled to be heard by a bench comprising of Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi, J Sanjay Kishan Kaul and J KM Joseph in the Court of the CJI at 10 AM on Tuesday.\nLast month, when two women came in the vicinity of the entrance to the temple, the tantri threatened to close the shrine. There are around 50 petitions seeking review of the judgement.\nBoth the Congress and the BJP said they will continue their protests and oppose any move to flout temple customs. The question remains whether Justice Khanwilkar, with no strong views of his own on the matter, is likely to be persuaded to change his views during the open hearing on January 22.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Articles \u00bb Senior Life Insurance is a Worthwhile Investment\nThe one thing most seniors forget to do is secure life insurance. It\u2019s also the most important thing to include when formulating a financial plan for the senior years and it doesn\u2019t have to be difficult. It\u2019s actually really easy to secure the right coverage at the right price.\nThere is a life insurance policy for everyone. It all depends on how much coverage is needed and how much the coverage will cost. With a budget in mind and a needs analysis in place, then securing life insurance can be easy.\nIt\u2019s easy to get overwhelmed when researching life insurance companies and their life insurance products. Remember to keep it simple. Typically seniors want a policy that won\u2019t be canceled because of increasing age. Finding a policy that doesn\u2019t require a medical exam is also possible. Many companies only require a simple application.\nMost seniors want a life insurance policy that will at the very least cover the expenses of a funeral and burial. The cost of funerals can be high, depending on location and all the different options that may be available. Funerals are among the most expensive purchases seniors can make. Funeral costs can average over $6,500 and Social Security only provides a death benefit of $225. Most families struggle to come up with that much money quickly in a time of grief.\nOther expenses many seniors don\u2019t think about include things like medical bills or other outstanding debts that have to be addressed immediately. Regardless of any savings in the bank, life insurance is key. It allows family members to get money fast and not wait on money that may be tied up. Even if there\u2019s money in an estate, getting that money can take time. No one should have to wait to bury a loved one because the money just isn\u2019t there.\nSecuring life insurance now is essential to protect savings and protect loved ones from the financial burden of debt, medical bills and funeral costs. A benefit for seniors securing more life insurance is that there are no restrictions on how the proceeds from the life insurance policy are used. That means that if there is any money left over after final expenses are paid, that money can go towards helping family with anything they may need. The money is typically paid tax-free within weeks and can be used for any extra expenses.\nFinancial planning for seniors should always include life insurance. It\u2019s easier than many seniors realize, and it can often be secured online or over the phone. Securing life insurance now can help ensure seniors and their families are covered and money is there when it\u2019s really needed.",

        "raw_content": "Great Britain Goalball Bring Home Gold and Silver from Portugal\nBetween the 4th to the 8th October the GB Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s Goalball Squads were in Portugal for the 2016 IBSA Goalball European B Championships. It\u2019s fair to say that it was a historic five days for Great British Goalball which ended with both squads gaining promotion to the highest level of elite goalball competition, as well as winning the Silver and Gold medal respectively.\nMike Reilly, CEO of Goalball UK, said: \u201cWe went to Portugal hoping for promotion so to leave with Gold, Silver and three of the highest scoring players in the tournament \u2013 Adam Knott, Dan Roper and Laura Perry \u2013 is above and beyond what we expected.\u201d\nThis is especially significant for the Great Britain Men who have never before played in the European A League. It was only last year that they were promoted to the European B League after winning the European C Championships in February of 2015. This this something that very few have done; securing a successive promotion!\nFaye Dale, Head Coach of the Men\u2019s squad, added: \u201cThere are some incredibly tough teams in the European B League but the squad remained un-fazed throughout, taking out the likes of Russia 15-5.\n\u201cIf this success is an indicator of what\u2019s to come for GB Goalball, I\u2019d expect to see Goalball UK on the podium in Tokyo.\u201d\nThe GB Women\u2019s team won the European B Championships in spectacular fashion! Over the course of the 7 games they scored 64 goals yet only conceded 9, winning all 7 seeing them being crowned undefeated champions. In their 4 games building up to the final they won all 4 in the form of a \u2018mercy stoppage\u2019. This is when a game is stopped early due to a team being ahead by 10 goals. They will be looking to continue this incredible form on to the European A Championships in September 2017.\nAaron Ford, head coach of the Women\u2019s squad, said: \u201cThis is undoubtedly one of the strongest teams we have ever had. To end the tournament undefeated, with several games won before half-time, shows just how confident and skilled the squad has become.\n\u201cHaving missed out on a place in Rio by a single goal, their achievements in Portugal are a testament to their tenacity and potential.\u201d\nThe support for Great Britain was overwhelming, throughout the tournament members of the goalball community expressed their support on social media. The event organisers arranged a Live Stream for all the games during the tournament which allowed fans to watch and back GB in all their games, and they did so in numbers! Every time GB played, the \u2018Live Stream Viewers\u2019 would rise significantly, in some cases even double. It seemed that no matter where people were, they would make sure to tune in to all the games. Goalball UK discovered that were people watching the streams whilst walking the dog, working out in the gym, on the train, at a hotel in New York, on a beach in Cyprus, and even at a music concert!\nGoalball UK would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that took time out of their day to support GB Goalball, it is great to see so many people so passionate about this incredible sport!\nPhotos can be found on the Event Facebook Page and the Goalball UK Facebook page.",

And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.\u201d Luke 1:16-17\nThe words of Gabriel to Zacharias echo the Word of the Lord recorded by Malachi the prophet: \u201cBehold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: and he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse\u201d (Mal. 4:5-6). And, as we prepare for the second advent of the LORD, our Lord Jesus Christ, we carry on the ministry of John the Baptist in calling all to repentance and pointing them to Christ Jesus and His atoning sacrifice on the cross for the sins of all (cf. John 1:29).\nWhile many think lightly of Christ\u2019s return and the final judgment and see no need for repentance, it is indeed a serious matter. If the LORD judges us according to His law, who can stand (cf. Mal. 3:2ff.; 4:1,6; Ps. 130:3ff.)? Indeed, none of us, for we have all sinned and come short of what God, in His law, demands (cf. Rom. 3:19-20,23). It is for that reason that John the Baptist came, to call upon sinners to repent and look to Christ the Lamb of God for pardon and forgiveness (cf. Luke 3:2ff.; Ps. 130:4ff.). And the Church, through its ministers, still preaches the same message today (cf. Luke 24:46-47; John 20:20-23; Acts 3:19ff.).\nBoth John and the Church seek to \u201cturn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.\u201d\nThrough the preaching of God\u2019s Word, the fathers and their descendants are united again in the true fear of the LORD. Those who were disobedient to the true faith are awakened to their sinfulness by God\u2019s Spirit and turned to the wisdom of the just \u2013 to the wisdom of those who acknowledge and repent of their sinful ways and look in faith to the LORD God for mercy and forgiveness for the sake of the promised Messiah and His redeeming work.\nThe only way for you and me, or for anyone, to be ready for the Lord\u2019s return and to escape the curse and condemnation of God\u2019s holy law is to repent and trust in the holy life and innocent sufferings and death of Christ Jesus for the sins of the world (cf. Gal. 3:10,13; Acts. 4:12).\nO LORD God, we have sinned and come short of the righteousness your law demands. We are guilty and justly stand condemned. Have mercy upon us and forgive us our sins for the sake of the holy life and innocent sufferings and death of Christ Jesus, Your Son and our crucified and risen Savior, that we might be found in Him just and holy and acceptable in Your sight on that day when Christ returns to judge the living and the dead. Amen.\n[Scripture quotations are taken from the King James Version of the Bible.]",

        "title": "GORENOGRAPHY: FRIDAY 13th PART 2 (1981)",
        "raw_content": "It's Friday the 13th here in Australia, so what better way to celebrate the occasion by watching a Friday the 13th movie? Friday the 13th (along with Halloween) set the standard for all slasher flicks to follow ... So how does part 2 stack up? To be honest I can't really remember, it was so long since I've seen this one, but it was great to pull out the box set and relive the follow up that I watched so long ago.\nIf you haven't seen the original I strongly recommend you do so as it is a classic but not necessary to enjoy this film in my opinion. Either way whatever you decide to do It's pretty easy to follow this film (though this following review could ruin the plot for you if you're one of the few horror fiends on the planet that still haven't seen it.)\nPart 2 opens up with a dream sequence recap of the first movie through the mind of the lone surviving teenager, Alice (which makes it easy for newcomers to follow the plot) who is obviously messed up from the whole affair and 5 years after the event is still having nightmares regarding Mrs. Vorhees and the boy in the lake which she's sure she's seen. Meanwhile, camp Crystal Lake has reopened for a new bunch of teenagers to experience the joys of the great outdoors.\nWhilst obviously Mrs. Voorhees had been decapitated in the first film it turns out the body of her supposedly drowned son had never been found, or confirmed dead. Somehow he'd been surviving in the woods on his own (no mean feat for a mentally disabled lad... not really what I'd call a plot hole, but the only hard to swallow aspect in an otherwise quite reasonable plot sequence) and wants revenge for the death of his mother and begins to take it out on the camp inhabitants one by one starting with the death of the old crazy dude from the first film\nWhilst the first film was an all time classic this is a more than worthy follow up and definitely worth watching as it is really here that the legend of Jason Vorhees really starts to develop. Overall it's not really that much of a thinker, but more of a genuine slasher film which can be enjoyed on your own or with friends but either way its great fun and a cool watch!",

        "title": "GRAZIA TANTA: Evolution of the world population 1950/2050 - The case of Europe",
        "raw_content": "Evolution of the world population 1950/2050 - The case of Europe\nIn History there have always been regions more attractive to the life of the peoples and others that repelled them, due to different constraints. The dimension of humanity and the deep inequalities in its territorial distribution are not so much related to the conditions of habitability and resources but to the model of social organization that dramatically accentuates them.\nIn the specific case of Europe, the existing and worsening demographic inequalities correspond to the failure of the model of coexistence and (absence) of solidarity among its peoples.\n1 - The world population is increasingly Asian or African\n2 - Europe's geopolitical areas and their demographic profiles\n2.1 - Eastern Mediterranean\n2.2 - Western Mediterranean\n2.3 - Central Europe\n2.4 - Western Europe\n2.5 - Eastern Europe\n0000000000 ||||| 0000000000\nFirst of all, we will proceed to the very general distribution of the world population by continent, before separating it by geopolitical areas built around history, cultural, ethnic and economic affinities; and then applying that same classification to other approaches to each of these geopolitical areas.\nUnderlying the graph we have to underline:\n\u00b7 The African population is the only one whose representativeness grows in a century, considering the predictions for 2050. This figure rises from 9% to 16.4% in 2016, allowing a doubling of its population between 2016 and 2050. By 2016 the African population was more of the quintuple of the registered one in 1950 hoping that, in one century, multiplies by eleven. Comparatively high fertility rates as well as substantial gains in life expectancy will justify this evolution.\n\u00b7 Asia is always the most populous continent, with more than half of the human population, rising from 54.3% in 1950 to 59.8% of the total in 2016, maintaining stable indicators at that level since 1980 and expecting a decrease in its weight relative to the large population growth forecast for Africa.\n\u00b7 Europe emerges as a negative image of Africa. With about a quarter of the world's population in 1950 (22.7 per cent), it declined steadily, even in terms of the projections for 2050. The decline was more abrupt in 2000 since after the breakup of the USSR, the Asian republics that incorporated it became integrated in Asia and not in Europe, where the whole population of the USSR was incorporated into the bloc; so, between 1990 and 2000 the population of Europe fell from 790 M to 730 M. This, however, only accentuates the declining trend of the weight of the European population throughout the period; leading to an expectation of absolute loss by 2050. The very low birth rate is not significantly offset by migratory influxes; a population that does not reproduce and is obliged to resort to immigration shows a diseased political, economic and cultural system.\n\u00b7 The population of the American continent peaked in the world total in 1970 (14%), declining slowly in the following decades to reach 13.3% in 2016. The projection for 2050 points to a decline to 12.4% of the total, with a loss also referred to Asia and Europe.\n\u00b7 As for Oceania, its population is small compared to other continents - 13 M and 40 M, respectively in 1950 and 2016 - showing a growth similar to that observed for Asia. After Africa is the macro-region where it is predicted a greater population growth between 2016 and 2050 (42%).\n\u00b7 The average annual growth for each period and on each continent shows a general reduction, with exceptions for Africa in the period 1970-2010. On the other hand, the beginning of the present century reveals much more modest rates of population growth, the forecasts for 2050 being much more optimistic, except for Europe.\nThis profile of the territorial distribution of the world's population, as early as 1950, revealed the enormous imbalances arising from the historical dominance of Europe in the world in a process begun in the sixteenth century; but was moving to the United States as the process of decolonization and the affirmation of the dollar advanced. The transition from the sceptre of power to the US led to the creation of the OECD in 1948 with only European countries and Turkey to manage the Marshall Plan which would become, under the OECD designation the club of rich countries, in 1961, 1964 and 1971/73, respectively, from the USA and Canada, Japan and Australia and New Zealand, among other European countries, Asian and Latin American integrated later on.\nOver time colonization has almost come to an end, although there are small countries, especially in the Caribbean and Oceania whose independence has little meaning, serving only as an interface of parking or capital passage, in acts of tax evasion or laundering of mafia activities .\nThis predominance of the US would be evidenced in the military sphere, with NATO (1949), which, constructed after Soviet extinction, became a tool for Western military intervention in Western Asia, North Africa and the Sahel in the name of a \"fight against terrorism\".\nThis \"struggle\" over Afghanistan has proved to be an obvious failure - as it had once been with Britain in the nineteenth century and with the USSR in the 1980s. The US is holding a containment war there in order to avoid a repetition of Vietnamese humiliation ... while Chinese and Indians settle economically. Some successes have shown restraint in the fight against al-Qaeda, but it remains active in the Sahel (AQIM), Somalia (al-Shabaab), Pakistan and Libya. One of his creatures, the ISIS / Daesh presented as a confessional (Sunni) instrument, failed to limit Iranian influence in the region and to bring Syria and Lebanon to Western influence.\nThere is a strengthening of Iran's role, Turkey's unstable geopolitical position, al-Sissi's low profile of Egypt, the protagonist of a coup supported by Obama against the former president, Morsi, who was elected in the framework of the sacred principles of market democracy. In this region, the US can rely only on its Zionist fortress and the Saudi monarchy to play a role in the region; while the \"international community\" is silent on the barbarous intervention of the Arab monarchies in Yemen.\nThe \"fight against terrorism\" subsequently gives way to the direct confrontation with whom the US perceives itself threatened. China's trade threat is evident; after the emergence of the euro and gradually the yuan as global currencies, the dollar tends to reduce its use, causing many countries to withdraw their gold deposited in Fort Knox (Germany, Turkey, the Netherlands, Venezuela...) knowing there is no gold there that supports the huge circulation of dollars. Meanwhile China and Russia increase their reserves and Iran does not accept dollars in their transactions, which is provoking the US reaction as it had been against Saddam or Libya from Kadhafi.\nBased on its military logistical device (80 military bases scattered throughout the world), the United States intends to conclude its strategy by directly confronting its opponents - Russia and China - with a cordon corresponding to the EU's eastern border and another in the China Sea involving especially Japan and South Korea. Since Russia and China meanwhile created the OCX in 2001, there is a dispute, with the use of ancient enmities, all over South Asia.\nThe Europe-America binomial has increased from 36.2% of the global population in 1950 to 23.3% in 2016, even though it is seen in this aggregate form - above all in America - with a composition that includes many inequalities. This loss of relevance in the demographic chess indicates that its supremacy, economic, political and military, is weakening, as seen in the various friction scenarios, in Western and Eastern Asia or in Europe; such as the US measures to create customs duties and sanctions in full reprisal for the defense of free trade, competition, the objectives that the West defended to promote the old WTO GATT. The traditional values \u200b\u200bof capitalism, free markets and free competition are yielding to the conveniences of its main advocates in recent decades. Is the refusal of major treaties or the relevance of climate change by the US a denial of capitalist globalization?\nThe distribution of the population in a more limited space, taking into account the various geopolitical areas of the continent[1] , presents great divergences as shown in the graph below.\nIn the period 1970-90 there has been a steady growth in all areas, albeit with some differences, which are not very pronounced but which have been brutally accentuated ever since, far beyond the political changes - break-up of the USSR and Czechoslovakia in addition to that in Yugoslavia , following conflicts, war and massive population movements.\nIn this case, during the 1990s, the Yugoslav separatist wars, animated initially by Germany and the Vatican and, in the final part, by the US bombings, led to a demographic regression that continued in the following decades, with no prospect for 2050, despite the integration of a number of countries in the region into the EU and NATO. As a sequel to these actions, Bosnia and Herzegovina remain in limbo as a composite unit; and Kosovo is something that resembles a \"thing\" that serves as the basis for the Boldsteen American base - aimed at military oversight of the Balkans - and as a platform for various Mafia trades, still receiving the EU's essential financial support.\nIn summary, we register the population variations among the various national entities of the area:\n\u00b7 Albania reached its peak population in 1990, declining since then by 2050 reaching the population of ... 1980. All the countries of the former Yugoslavia had a maximum reached in 1990, lost 16% of the population then, until 2016 and the outlook for 2050 is that the combined population should be at the same level as a century ago;\n\u00b7 Compared with 2000, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Serbia / Montenegro, which have since become autonomous, have lost between 5% and 7% of their population by 2016. Only Slovenia and Macedonia increase their population in the former Yugoslavia, in the same period, respectively 4.5 and 2.3%. However, the outlook for 2050 is negative for all countries, with extreme figures for Croatia (-18%) and Serbia (-16%) and less dramatic cases for Slovenia and Macedonia (-7% for both countries). At the end of this text, a map of Europe contemplates the global situation, individualizing each country;\n\u00b7 Lastly, it should be noted that Cyprus is the only country in the region whose population has grown uniformly since the 1980s, as well as the only one where, throughout the Eastern European Mediterranean region, population growth is projected to reach in 2050. Greece had a population growth in all the decades of 1950 to 2010 but has lost about 240 thousand inhabitants until 2016, immolated in the salvation of the global financial system; and, of course, by 2050, a fall of 11% compared to 2016 is allowed;\n\u00b7 If population dynamics are seen as central to mirroring a community's level of well-being, it is not excessive to say that the wars in the Balkans, the collapse of Yugoslavia, the integration in the EU of most of the Balkan countries were not a happiness factor of the people. Happy people do not reduce birth rates, nor do they migrate; on the contrary, they fraternize and make children.\nAs can be seen in the description of the composition of the European geopolitical areas that accompany the chart, in this area there are four countries and four territories that are essentially offshores, referring to one of these being a neighborhood of Rome that serves as the headquarters of one religious institution and the other one is an English colony.\nIn this area, population growth is above the global average in the period that ended in 2010. In the present decade, the effects of the crisis of the financial system fell heavily on Spain, Italy and Portugal, leading to the exit of immigrants, in some cases or entry of hundreds of thousands of immigrants and refugees in Italy; and also a strong emigration of people fleeing unemployment and the degradation of the quality of life that went to Central or Western Europe. The outlook for 2050, with emigration, low birth rates, a greater precariousness in life, more financial crises and the obvious fascization of the so-called market democracies is quite probable; in this area as in other European geopolitical areas.\n\u00b7 Offshore residents have grown in the period, except in Andorra after 2010 and the Vatican, whose small number of residents (you cannot call a population that does not contain women, children and families) has remained stable. For Gibraltar and S. Marino population growth is forecast for 2050. The flow of capital from Portugal to offshore has recently been treated here;\n\u00b7 There has been a steady population growth in all countries in the period 1950/2010, which ceased to occur in 2010/16 except in Malta. For the four countries, in those sixty years the population has grown 67% in Spain, 28% in Italy, 33% in Malta and 27% in Portugal, in the latter case, as a sign of the growing peripheralization and relative impoverishment within the peninsula. we have recently observed, here and here ;\n\u00b7 In the last hexennium, the inhabitants decreased 300,000 in Italy, 280,000 in Portugal and 440,000 in Spain. These figures, which are not very far apart in absolute terms, have a different meaning in relative terms - 3% of the population in Portugal and 1% for the other two countries in just six years. The violence of the action of the Portuguese political class, as a performer of the impositions of the troika, is evidenced in demographic terms , in an action in reducing the purchasing power and the rights of the plebs, in taming the protests, in order to safeguard the interests of the financial capital;\n\u00b7 Under the CNUCED / UNCTAD 2050 forecast, population declines of 7 per cent for Italy, 13 per cent for Portugal and 4 per cent for Spain, attesting the demographic regression in the Western Mediterranean, with particular emphasis on Portugal. In the same vein, the Portuguese INE has projections of a population of 8.6 M in 2060 and 7.5 M in 2080 , although the temporal distance for these epochs allows for all political, economic and demographic changes.\nThis area, the old Mittel Europe, roughly encompasses, besides the Swiss treasure chest, the territories of the former Prussian and Austro-Hungarian empires; in the most up-to-date way, we have Switzerland, Germany, and its ever-desired Drang nach Osten, as near land for the installation of large German industry, working cheaply, without the import of Gastarbeiter; a process that began well before German reunification, both in the Federal Republic and in the former DDR / GDR.\nAs it is known, the impact of the crisis that began in 2008 was not dramatic, as in southern Europe, and therefore it has not been reflected in demography, since the influx of immigrants compensated for the low birth rate. The population, although stagnant, does not fall back until 2016, although future prospects are declining.\n\u00b7 There is a clear distinction between the demographic increase in Switzerland in 1950/2010 (68%) or Poland (54%) and the remaining, much more modest, with the highlight being Hungary (6%) and Germany (16%). Restricting this analysis to the hexennium ended in 2016, it shows a substantial annual increase in population in Austria (0.6% vs. 0.35% in the 60 years initially considered), small breaks in Germany and Switzerland, and population reductions in Poland and Hungary ;\n\u00b7 As in other geopolitical areas, there are great differences in demographic dynamics, revealing economic and social fractures that are not in line with the discourses of the Brussels or national mandarins on European cohesion. Thus the predictions for 2050 point to population declines of 15% for Hungary and Poland, 9% for Slovakia and 3% for Germany, which may change with the policy of Angela Merkel to accept hundreds of thousands of refugees of the Middle East, disregarding a large segment of the population that surrendered to AfD's xenophobic charms. Only Austria and especially Switzerland (18%) are expected to increase population by 2050.\nThis area encompasses almost the entire Atlantic coastline, from the Bidasoa to the Arctic, beyond Sweden and Iceland. Its anchor are the ancient colonial empires, especially France and the United Kingdom, still little understood by their regional profile, when they disguise this situation by offering themselves as bridesmaids from the USA (Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria). France tries to stay in the Sahel to forget the defeats in Indochina and Algeria, and Britain maintains the policy set by Harold Wilson, to settle west of the Suez, although it has the well-populated planet of offshores, certainly involved in business of the City.\nThey all have a high standard of living and the Long Depression, which comes from 2008, touched them much more lightly than the Mediterranean countries. Its consistent homogeneity and well-being, together with some policies to support refugees and immigrants, show the regular and strong population growth throughout the period and still in expectations for 2050.\n\u00b7 Population growth is constant for all countries in the period 1950/2010, with the dynamism of Iceland (125%) or Luxembourg (72%) and lower in Great Britain (25%) and Belgium ( 30%);\n\u00b7 The situation is different if only the six years ending in 2016 are considered. Luxembourg has a rate of 2.2% annual population growth, followed by Sweden (0.8%), Great Britain and Belgium (0.65% 0.64%). Immigration of people from South Europe, Africa and Asia, many of them refugees, will not be uncommon. These influxes have reinforced the audience of the xenophobic Farage or Boris Johnson speeches that led to the English referendum that led to Brexit, producing similar drifts in other countries. The situations of lower demographic dynamism are observed in the Netherlands (0.3%) and in Ireland;\n\u00b7 When facing a scenario by 2050, the best outlook for population growth vis-a-vis 2016 lies in Luxembourg (38%), Norway (29%) and Ireland (23%) and the lowest in the Netherlands (3%) and Belgium or France (10%).\nIt encompasses, in addition to Finland, the most western of the former Soviet republics, the present Russian Federation and Romania. In demographic terms these former Soviet republics have their population contained in all the years considered in this geopolitical area, isolated since 2000 or in the USSR total before that year. From 2000 onwards the former Soviet republics of Central Asia and the Caucasus, integrated into the total population of the USSR, are no longer in the Russian Federation, thus justifying the great fall of the population of this geopolitical area between 1990 and 2000; but little affecting the huge population of the Asian continent.\nAs for 2010, its demographic evolution is similar to that verified and expected for the Western Mediterranean. This reveals the accentuation of the peripheral character of the whole of the Mediterranean basin of Europe and of the East, compared to the western strip of the continent as we have pointed out in greater detail here, here and here.\n\u00b7 Finland and Romania are the only cases in which demographic developments can be assessed from 1950; and show a population growth of 34 and 26% respectively. There is, however, a striking difference; the evolution observed in Finland is observed throughout the period and, on the contrary, in Romania the population begins to decrease from 2000 (700 thousand people compared to ten years before), 1.7 M in the following decade and 660 thousand in the completed hexennium in 2016. The change of regime and integration in the EU were not a factor of well-being for Romanians, well represented in the emigration destinations in Western, Central and Western Europe:\n\u00b7 For the 2000/16 period for which data are compatible for all countries, all show population declines except for Finland with a 3% increase. For the remainder, there are population declines in the period ranging from 1% and 2% for Estonia and the Russian Federation to 11% for Latvia and Lithuania, which joined the EU in 2004;\n\u00b7 Projections for 2050 are very negative compared to 2016. Finland again emerges as the only country with a population growth forecast (7%). On the other hand, the forecast for demographic losses for Latvia (23%) and around 17/19% for Lithuania, Moldova, Romania and Ukraine is very marked;\n\u00b7 Finally, the Russian Federation itself is likely to reduce its population by 8%, which is undoubtedly a fragility for a power that intends to take a leading role in Eastern Europe and Central and Western Asia and will not want to increase the degree of subalternity towards China, within the Euro-Asian continent. It is recalled that in these data, do not consider the 2 M of people who became members of the Russian Federation and not Ukraine.\nWhat has been mentioned above, in the chapter of expectations for 2050 can be seen, graphically below:\nEvolution of the European population in 2050 compared to 2016\nFrom a political point of view, it is a continent where the anti-democratic tendency in the EU, in forming a center and several peripheries, promotes enormous inequalities, accentuates xenophobia and falls far short of an internationalist and solidarity project as a union of peoples from Europe which, of course, the political classes and the oligarchies of capital do not subscribe to. The geopolitical decline of a fragmented Europe, politically, economically and socially, with enormous areas of poverty, tends to make it, in the global context, an Asian peninsula of a tricontinental space, like a return from Gondwana, where the role of China, with its economic and demographic power will impose itself. Is Rotterdam in the future only the final station of the Silk Road railway line, led by China?\nThis fragmentation, as Brexit demonstrates, exacerbates the most radical logic within NATO, linked to the imperial and fastidious drift of the United States, by countries on the Atlantic coast, such as Norway, the Netherlands and Portugal, to beyond the already captured Great Britain; or, in Eastern Europe, where anti-Russian phobia is evident in the Baltic States or Poland, happy harbouring NATO troops on its borders.\nA Europe of solidarity corresponds to the disappearance of nation states, rooted to their borders and stories of heroes, as if they were not to vanish in time. Instead of the destruction and construction of nation-states, which reminds us of a huge flow of war and hatred, wouldn\u2019t it be more interesting a network of self-managed regional bodies and articulated to the pursuit of common projects of mutual interest? As a matter of urgency, a broad social movement is required to form a network of regional entities with autonomous and sovereign structures, without submission to superior oligarchic bodies , with members chosen by their inhabitants, without prerogatives of perenniality such as those in the current classes policies are arrogated , with guaranteed rotation, without privileges, with functions at any moment ceased by popular will, in a context of total transparency when the decision processes and their contents.\nIn the specific case of the EEC / EU, the evolution of the population (in millions) of the member countries, in several moments from the time before its creation, is observed in aggregate form:\nFounders - Germany, Belgium, France, Holland, Italy and Luxembourg\nA - Denmark, Great Britain and Ireland, with GB excluded in 2050\nB - Spain, Greece and Portugal\nC -Austria, Finland, Sweden\nD - Cyprus, Slovakia, Slovenia, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Czech Republic\nE - Bulgaria, Romania\nF - Croatia\n\u00b7 Generalized population increases are observed for the various groups of integrated countries by 2010. The crisis of the so-called Long Depression is revealed in 2016, but in an asymmetrical way, reaching the peripheral countries on the Mediterranean and the East, which lose population (groups B , D, E and F). Saving precisely the richest, who were able to impute to the rest the costs of financial drift and the incapacities of the global capitalist model\n\u00b7 As for 2050, there are only population increases between the founders, the hard core and, in the rich countries of the second enlargement (C). Large population reductions - 16 to 19% - are to be noted in the Eastern and Eastern Mediterranean countries, which have been the protagonists of the last three enlargements. For the second enlargement countries - Spain, Greece and Portugal - it is considered a possible 7% reduction of the population in the period 2016/2050. Finally, the departure of Britain, beyond its political significance, has a significant weight in total, the demographic reduction admissible.\n[1] Central Europe - Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Switzerland and Czechoslovakia (data up to 1990)\nWestern Europe - Belgium, Denmark, France, Holland, Faroer Islands, Ireland, Iceland, Luxembourg, Norway, United Kingdom, Sweden\nEastern Europe - Belarus, Estonia, Russian Federation (from 2000), Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Romania, Ukraine and the USSR (data up to 1990)\nWestern Mediterranean - Andorra, (as of 2010), Spain, Gibraltar, Italy, Malta, Portugal, S.

Featured on the digital single, and the CD1 and CD2 single for Holiday.\nClean Radio Edit\nA radio edit from the American Holiday single. Backmasked the word 'fag,' and retains the fade ending.\nSay! Hey!\nHear the sound of the falling rain,\nComing down like an Armageddon flame,\nThe shame,\nThe ones who died without a name,\nHear the dogs howling out of key,\nTo a hymn called \"Faith and Misery\",\nAnd bleed,\nthe company lost the war today\nI beg to dream and differ,\nFrom the hollow lies,\nHear the drum pounding out of time,\nAnother protester has crossed the line,\nTo find, the money's on the other side,\nCan I get another Amen? (AMEN)\nThere's a flag wrapped around a score of men,\nA gag,\nA plastic bag on a monument\nThe representative from California has the floor\nSieg Heil to the President Gasman,\nBombs away is your punishment,\nPulverize the Eiffel Towers,\nWho criticize your government,\nBang, Bang goes the broken glass, and\nill all the fags that don't agree,\nTrials by fire setting fire,\nIs not a way that's meant for me,\nJust cause,\nJust cause because we're outlaws, yeah!\nThis is the dawning of the rest of our lives,\nRetrieved from \"http://greenday.wikia.com/wiki/Holiday?oldid=6796\"",

I really think I could.\nI could hang out, dressed in my Sunday robes and beanie, like el rey del mundo, and make the occasional proclamation. I could handle the Basilica San Pietro being my local art gallery. I have to think the food\u2019s probably pretty good.\nI\u2019m just as capable as the next guy of perpetuating 14th-century attitudes toward women. I could express \u201cconcern\u201d over sex-abusing priests.\nI could say things like, \u201cI condemn thee most strongly,\u201d and be like really stern, and I could make sure the priests and the high priests who cover for \u2018em never get too uncomfortable.\nI could do Pope. Not a lot of deep thought involved.\nThe conclave called my current day job for references, and apparently my bosses gave me bad marks \u2026 I\u2019m pretty sure it\u2019s so I\u2019d stick around and they wouldn\u2019t lose me to the Vatican.\nIn the end, I understand, it came down to a little-known, rarely applied provision in the bylaws for picking a Pope. It seems the guy they select (there\u2019s another of my qualifications \u2013 I\u2019m a guy) must cause there to be an affirmative answer to a particular question.\nI didn\u2019t know it was a deal-breaker.\nThe only right answer is, \u201cLike, duh.\u201d\nWhich used to be the easy answer, right about this time of year, to the question, \u201cIs Tiger Woods the favorite to win The Masters?\u201d\nDecent player. Had some success in the game. Two wins already this year. He\u2019ll play next on tour at Bay Hill, where the old king Arnie hosts a tournament every year, and where Tiger has won seven times.\nHe was made to feel uncomfortable, and it showed in his game. Now, he\u2019s acting like el rey del golfo mundo all over again.\nHe\u2019s not a nice guy, and not overly worried about it. The killer instinct, it seems, is back.\nSo: Is Tiger the favorite to win the Master\u2019s?",

        "raw_content": "What is HAIW?\nOver the years of providing technical support to customers in different businesses from cable services to accessing medical benefits on the internet, I think I have noticed is a lot of people don\u2019t have basic computer knowledge. Even more so, a large population of people, do not have access to a computer accept in their home. To get the basic job nowadays you need to have the basic knowledge on how to use a computer and its tools and applications.\nTo take a computer training class, costs start at $2800. The cost many not be an issue for some but most people would rather go without computer knowledge or learn whenever they need to learn it. There are free online courses but if you don\u2019t have a computer or know how to use one, it would not be helpful. With these things in mind, I decided to start a organization HAIW (HE alone is worthy). With this organization, I hope to be able to give those who lack the knowledge for the computer, the opportunity to gain it at zero cost to them.\nThe first 12 months of starting HAIW will be spent setting the foundations needed to become a successful operation by finding churches and community centers who would like sponsor HAIW in providing free computer to their surrounding communities. Also during this time I would be advertising the services that HAIW is providing.\nThe next 2 to 3 years, I would like to increase my locations to the point where HAIW would be providing the computer training, at the most, 6 days a week. Hopefully HAIW will have a brick and mortar location or center to provide the training services to the community. With the increased community traffic, HAIW hopefully would acquire investors, sponsors, and / or funding to be able to expand the operation, possibly be able to hire a few people and offer more free services to the community.\nAfter 3 years, HAIW will be running seminars out of my own facility where we would be providing a free business center. This center would provide services to assist people in securing employment such as a computer room for job searching, resume creation assistance, and interview training.\nFor those how are taking the course, we would provide a box lunch prior to the class starting, it is hard to learn on an empty stomach! Those who complete the basic computer training and show 100% improvement and a willingness to learn, HAIW would give them a basic refurbished desktop or laptop so they can keep exercising their newly acquired skills in preparation for their a new position in the workplace.\nHAIW would also like to provide a donation center storage. I have found out that different places who take donations, after the event is over, if the things aren\u2019t picked up by a certain time, they are disposed of. We would like to be able to get the things to the people who need them.\nFrom the United States Census Bureau regarding Indianapolis population estimates as of July 1, 2017, 85.5% are high school graduate or higher making $43,101 annually. 20.9% for the population is in poverty. HAIW\u2019s goal is to reach the lower income community. The need for individuals who have the basic knowledge of computer usage and the ability to use Windows Office applications in the workplace are in high demand. Majority of the jobs on the market require some basic computer knowledge of a computer.\nStart-up cost\nBuilding or facility \u2013 $3000 / mo (depending on location)\n11 desktops \u2013 $11,000\n11 keyboards and mice \u2013 $440\n3 power strips \u2013 $96\nRouter switch \u2013 $250\n5 banquet tables \u2013 $600\nBusiness broadband internet \u2013 $ 80 / mo\nWebsite \u2013 $300 / mo\nAccountant services \u2013 $3200 / mo\nSalary \u2013 $3200 / mo",

        "raw_content": "Hamilton Bike Share\nCitizens For A Bike Share Program in Hamilton, ON\nFact - Hamilton's Bike Share system will be running early summer 2014.\nThis is a huge win for Hamilton! Check out the official bike share website for Hamilton for more information.\nFact - On Dec 11, 2013, Hamilton's Bike Share project was approved by Council\nWhat does that mean? Well it means that we are slated to have a bike share system in Hamilton early summer 2014!\nSocial Bicycles (aka SoBi) has been chosen as the operator of the system. Their bicycles and stations are a bit different from BIXI hardware, as the bikes themselves will house all the hardware necessary to rent them. This means that the bikes won't have to be locked up at dedicated stations - you can find a bike online, unlock it, and then lock it up wherever is convenient for you.\nFor more information on Hamilton's Bike Share program, check out raisethehammer.org's amazing coverage.\nFact - the bike share system will be built at no cost to Hamilton taxpayers\nAccording to the business plan created by Hamilton Transportation staff, the start-up and capital funding of $1.6 million will be secured from the Metrolinx quick wins program. This will allow the city to install 35 bike share locations with 300 bikes between them (you can see a list of the proposed bike share locations in the business plan).\nThe Metrolinx quick wins funds were granted to the City of Hamilton in 2008, and are earmarked for capital costs to increase ridership to the A-Line and B-Line bus corridors. The bike sharing proposal is one of many other improvements being brought to Rapid Transit in Hamilton, and in this context is being built to allow more people to utilize Hamilton's Rapid Transit.\nFact - a bike sharing system will have a direct economic impact on our city\nBike sharing is a new form of public transit, and the economic impacts of transit systems are well documented. Adding transit to neighbourhoods typically increases property values and sales activity, along with a host of other benefits.\nBike sharing networks will hopefully also 'fill the gap' between our current transit routes. The business plan explains how the stops have been strategically placed to increase access to some of Hamilton's current Bus Rapid Transit corridors, the A-line and the B-line. If the idea works, we will hopefully see a boost to ridership on the HSR, which could go a long way to improving service.\nFinally, a McGill study discusses the fact that bike share systems increase the amount of cyclists in the City. This is great news, as the City has committed to building 75km of new bike infrastructure by 2016 (according to their Transportation Master Plan). Bike infrastructure has been linked with higher rents and sales activity where it is present - more cyclists means that the City will be getting more efficiency out of its existing investment in infrastructure.\nFact - Hamilton has a unique opportunity for a bike sharing program\nThe capital costs of the bike share system will be covered by the Metrolinx quick wins money, which means that the operator will not have to pay interest on a capital loan as part of their operating costs. This is important because it removes barriers from the program's success.\nOther municipalities where bike share was implemented have had to guarantee operator loans or revenues, which is a risk. It also meant higher number of users were needed for the system to be self-sustaining. Hamilton's unique situation gives us a much better chance of the program being a success, and reduces the risk to taxpayers.\nFact - the system could become profitable with only 4300 yearly memberships\nThat's less than 1% of Hamilton's population, according to the 2011 census! This figure doesn't even count the potential revenues from daily and monthly subscriptions, as well as sponsors and advertising. This means that it would realistically take less than 4300 yearly subscribers to make bike sharing in Hamilton a profitable business.\nYearly memberships would cost $79, and would allow subscribers to take unlimited 30-minute trips around the city. These memberships would be most useful to people who used bicycles for short trips, such as commuting to work or school, or going to the grocery store or laundry.\nCities with similar population and density to Hamilton have installed bike sharing systems with success. Ottawa's bike sharing system was installed in 2011 and able to break even on its operating costs the same year. Minneapolis was actually even able to exceed its operating costs in its first year (2012), with 75% of the population of Hamilton, and twice as many bikes installed!\nFact - bike sharing systems are cool, convenient and could make the City of Hamilton a better place\nIt's easy to get lost in a sea of facts, but it's really important to note the best part about a bike sharing system is that it will make our city a better place to live, work and play. All you have to do is go to any city with a bike sharing network to see how convenient they are, and how they add to your general quality of life.\nWe have a chance right now to increase the quality of our lives - we MUST take advantage of this opportunity!",

With some 86% of its 260 million people estimated to be Muslim, it has the largest Islamic population of any country. About 10% of Indonesians are Christian. Indonesians have lived by the principle of gotong royong which is to live in \u2018solidarity and by collaboration\u2019, regarding all Indonesians as brothers and sisters.\nBut gotong royong sits ill at ease with the neo-liberal approach to economics that has led to economic growth, and corruption infecting politics and business, often with devastating effects on the environment. Meanwhile those who are supposed to promote justice and protect the weak fail to do so. As a consequence, a country rich in resources bears the burden of many people living in poverty. Particular ethnic and religious groups are often associated with wealth in ways that have fed tensions. The Christians of Indonesia found that the words of Deuteronomy, \u2018Justice, and only justice, you shall pursue\u2026'(see Deut. 16:18-20) spoke powerfully to their situation.\nEach year Christian Aid provides the Go and Do action points for each of the daily reflections \u2013 linking into the important work of Christian Aid in the relief of poverty and advocacy of justice.\nShow your support for Christian Unity by posting unity messages and details of your events to our Week of Prayer for Christian Unity Twitter wall \u2013 simply add the #wpcuwall hashtag to your Twitter post (note they take 15 minutes to appear). You can also find updates about the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity on Twitter by following the #wpcu2019 hashtag.\nFrom ctbi.org.uk/weekofprayer",

        "raw_content": "New Acute Care Hospital Awards SKANSKA Large Contract\nSeptember 11, 2018 Roxanne Squires 268 Views Acute Care Hospital, CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center, NICU, SKANSKA\nLOS ANGELES \u2013 Construction and development firm SKANSKA announced it has been granted a $188.3 million contract from CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center (HPMC) to begin work on the new Acute Care Hospital Building at HPMC in Hollywood, Calif.\nThis is a part of CHA HPMC\u2019s Campus upgrade aimed to better serve healthcare needs in their community while completing state seismic requirements. KMD architects broke ground on the latest phase of the $350 million project May 2018.\nThe complete project involves a 175,000-square-foot, five-story building and replacing the existing emergency department and kitchen, including medical/surgical patient unit, labor and delivery department, NICU, clinical lab, morgue and information technology services. The replacement runs at an estimated cost of $291 million, according to a press release.\nIn addition to this, demolition and upgrades will be made to existing structures to support the new tower including remodeling approximately 20,000-square-feet of the adjacent patient tower currently standing. Further work includes the revamp of the current courtyard and lobby, building a new ramp for the existing parking structure and repositioning of existing site utilities.\nThe new patient tower will include a doubled-in-size emergency department in comparison to the current emergency department \u2013 with 20 exam rooms along with a private exam room for women\u2019s services, and over 26,000-square-feet of space.\nThe new department will also include a chest pain observation area and detox area. Furthermore, a new maternity and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) with 13 labor/delivery/recovery rooms, three surgical suites and 19 NICU beds will allow it to become one of the largest birthing departments in Los Angeles.\nLastly, the tower will contain a new medical/surgical unit with private rooms and a floor consisting of seven operating rooms, 20 pre-operative and recovery beds, a cardiac catheterization laboratory, and an electrophysiology laboratory.\nConstruction is slated for completion in late 2020 and the emergency department intends to be available for 2020 occupancy.\n$300 million of this project is being funded through a federal government loan and financial institutions.\nReports from KMD architects and Business Newswire contributed to this story.\n\u2190 Jenni Eschner\nNew High-Tech Surgery Center Opens at Lucile Packard Children\u2019s Hospital \u2192",

        "title": "Spinal Cord Injury - Health For Free Spinal Cord Injury",
        "raw_content": "Home/Health Tips/Spinal Cord Injury\nYour spinal cord is made up of bundles of nerves and nerve cells. These carry messages from your brain to the different parts of your body. Your spinal cord runs from the base of your brain to your waist. It is protected by your backbone, or spinal column. The backbone is made up of bony rings in your back called vertebrae.\nSymptoms of a spinal cord injury\nSymptoms of a spinal cord injury (SCI) vary. They depend on the type, location, and severity of the injury. An entire loss of muscle control and feeling is called a complete SCI. Some muscle control and sensation is called an incomplete SCI. Injuries that occur higher up the spinal cord usually result in more severe symptoms.\nParalysis is a common symptom of spinal cord injuries. It is a loss of movement in part of your body. When this happens, there may be some or no feeling in the paralyzed area. Damaged vertebrae in your neck can paralyze your arms, chest, and legs. It also can affect the muscles that control breathing. Damaged vertebrae in your upper or lower back areas can paralyze your chest and legs.\nImmediate signs of an SCI include:\nnumbness, tingling, or loss of feeling\nloss of muscle function (paralysis)\nIn addition to these symptoms, ongoing issues may be:\nspasticity (spasms).\nIf you think someone has an injury to their head, neck, or back, you should:\nnot move them (in case of injury)\nroll up blankets or towels and place them on either side of the person\u2019s head. This helps keep the person\u2019s head and neck in place.\nperform any first aid, if needed, such as giving CPR or putting pressure on a wound. Again, be sure to keep the person\u2019s head and neck in place.\nWhat causes a spinal cord injury?\nThere are two main causes of a spinal cord injury. The first is a blow to the spinal column. It can damage your spinal cord or the nearby vertebrae or tissue, which can pinch the cord. This can result from a car accident, sports injury, fall, or assault, such as a gunshot or knife wound. Additional damage can occur in the following days. Bleeding, swelling, and fluid buildup can put pressure on your spinal cord.\nDisease also can cause a spinal cord injury. Examples include arthritis and polio. Osteoporosis and aging are risk factors. These can weaken your spinal column and make you more prone to SCIs. Spina bifida (\u201csplit spine\u201d) is a birth defect that can act like an SCI.\nHow is a spinal cord injury diagnosed?\nA doctor will diagnose your spinal cord injury. They will keep you immobile (still) during tests at the hospital. Possible tests are an X-ray, computerized tomography (CT) scan, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These tests take pictures of the vertebrae to show if there is any damage. Your doctor also will perform a neurological exam. This helps them determine how severe the injury is. They will see how much muscle control you have and whether or not you can feel sensations. All of these tests diagnose the level and completeness of your injury.\nCan a spinal cord injury be prevented or avoided?\nSince SCIs occur from disease or accidents, you can prevent them.\nA team of doctors will decide the best treatment for your spinal cord injury. In the short-term, medicine can help reduce swelling of the SCI. Methylprednisolone is a cortisone or steroid medicine. If it is given right away, it can reduce damage to your nerve cells. You may need surgery to stabilize your spine or remove bone or tissue that is pressing on your spinal cord. Your doctor will put you in traction to keep your head and body still during surgery.\nLong-term treatment options have several benefits. They help prevent blood clots, muscle shrinkage, calcium loss, and thinning of your skin. Treatments include:\nMedicine. Certain medicines and injections can help control some SCI symptoms. For example, botulinum toxin regulates arm spasms. Talk to your doctor about what works best for your type of injury and symptoms. Medicine also helps manage pain.\nPhysical therapy. In some cases, physical therapy can help with muscle function. It consists of stretching, strengthening, and muscle training. It can provide flexibility, control, coordination, and strength.\nOccupational therapy. This type of therapy can help you relearn daily tasks, such as bathing, dressing, cooking, and writing. Your body may have forgotten how to do these tasks since the injury. It also provides education to prevent future health problems.\nExperimental treatments. Researchers are working to find a cure for spinal cord injuries. Talk to your doctor about new treatments that may be available.\nYour recovery depends on how severe your injury is. In most cases, improvement occurs within the first 6 months of injury. However, some people continue to make progress beyond that. There is no cure for SCIs, so you will need ongoing treatment.\nPeople who have spinal cord injuries can live full, happy lives. They can work, get married, and have children. Some can go to events, play sports, and drive cars. Continued research focuses on finding a cure and providing new treatment options.\nWill my spinal cord injury improve over time?\nHow much movement and feeling can I expect to recover?\nHow will my spinal cord injury affect my other health? Does it put me at risk of other issues?\nWhat experimental treatments are available for me?\nCan you recommend a support group for people with spinal cord injuries?",

        "raw_content": "Earl Anthony, 1979\nEarl Roderick Anthony\nBowling Information\n43 PBA Tour (10 majors)\nEarl Roderick Anthony (April 27, 1938 \u2013 August 14, 2001) was a left-handed American professional bowler who amassed records of 43 titles and six Player of the Year awards on the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) Tour. For over two decades, his career title count was listed as 41. The count was amended to 43 in 2008, when the PBA chose to retroactively award PBA titles for ABC Masters championships if won by a PBA member at the time.[1] He is widely credited (along with Dick Weber) for having increased bowling's popularity in the United States. He was the first bowler to earn over $100,000 in a season (1975), and the first to reach $1,000,000 in lifetime PBA earnings (1982). His ten professional major titles\u2014six PBA National Championships, two Firestone Tournament of Champions titles, and two ABC Masters (now USBC Masters) titles\u2014are tied with Pete Weber and Jason Belmonte for the most by any bowler.[2][3] Anthony is considered the greatest bowler in PBA history.\nNever brash or flashy in a crew-cut and plastic-frame \"marshwood\" style eyewear (which he abandoned for more modern frames later in his career), Anthony was dubbed \"Square Earl\" by fellow pro bowlers.[4]\n1 PBA career\nPBA career\nAnthony's bowling career began when he hesitantly joined his company's bowling league, West Coast Grocery, after serving in the United States Air Force. After his first season bowling, Earl achieved his first official league bowling average of 165. By his third season, his average had surged to 217. In 1963, he bowled three PBA summer tournaments in the Pacific Northwest to get a feel for what it would take to successfully compete on the tour. Though he did not cash in any of the three events, he had succeeded in learning how much he would need to improve before he could entertain any idea of going out on the PBA Tour full-time. In order to prepare himself for the tour Anthony practiced between 300-350 games a week, up to eight hours day, and often without any pins (in order to save money). After six years of diligent practice Anthony began his professional bowling career in January 1970, leading the tournament going into the televised finals at Crestview Bowl in Wichita, Kansas. He lost the championship match to Skee Foremsky, finishing in second place. [5]\nAnthony won the first of his 43 PBA titles on June 7, 1970, when he defeated Allie Clarke at the Heidelberg Open in Seattle, Washington. His final PBA title was a major \u2014 the 1983 Toledo Trust PBA National Championship. Six of his titles were achieved by a pair of improbable \"three-peats\" in the PBA National Championship, the first three from 1973\u201375 and the other three from 1981\u201383. Earl also finished runner-up to fellow lefty Mike Aulby in the 1979 PBA National Championship.\nAfter a nine-month layoff, Anthony won his second ABC Masters tournament in 1984, which at the time was not part of the PBA Tour.[6] Anthony had also won the Masters in 1977. The PBA later added ABC Masters titles as PBA titles, giving Anthony at least one PBA title in 15 consecutive seasons (1970\u201384). He joined the Senior Tour in 1988 and accumulated another seven titles there.[4]\nBy 1988 Anthony had 25 career 300 games.[7] Sadly, not one was on television in the United States; he did, however, bowl two televised 299 games, leaving a solid 9-pin on the last shot in one and a 6-pin on the other. Although he didn't drop to the floor like Don Johnson, Anthony would remark about the 9-pin on a PBA telecast years later, saying, \"to this day, I can't believe that pin stood.\" Earl Anthony did shoot a televised 300 game on national TV in a PBA Tournament in Japan in front of over 50 million viewers.\nPhoto of Earl Anthony holding trophy for shooting 300 on live TV in Japan PBA Tournament\nAfter retiring, Anthony moved to the broadcast booth as a color commentator[8] and operated a bowling center in Dublin, California.[4]\nAnthony was born in Tacoma, Washington. He was a minor league baseball pitcher with the Baltimore Orioles organization before his days as a professional bowler. He was also an excellent golfer, achieving a near-scratch handicap at the age of 60. He once set the course record at Crow Canyon Country Club in Danville, California with a scratch score of 64.[citation needed]\nSigned and attested scratch 64 golf score by Earl Anthony\nHe was married to Susie Anthony; and had a son, Mike, and two daughters, Tracy and Jeri.[9]\nAnthony missed some time on the PBA Tour during the 1978 season after suffering a heart attack in June of that year. Less than three months later he was back on Tour, finishing third in the Waukegan (IL) Open.[6]\nEarl Anthony died in 2001, succumbing to head injuries suffered after falling down a flight of stairs at his friend Ed Baur's home in New Berlin, Wisconsin. He was 63 years old.[4][10]\nThe \"Earl Anthony Memorial Scholarship Fund\" was established through funding by the ABC Championship Tournament, in order to provide scholarships to young bowlers. It is now administrated by the Bowling Foundation.\nIn January 2002, the PBA began the year with a tournament named after Anthony, \"The Earl Anthony Memorial Classic.\" It was first held at TechCity Bowl in Kirkland, Washington. It was won by left-handed pro bowler Parker Bohn III, who beat Patrick Healey, Jr. in the final match 235 to 215. It later moved to Medford, Oregon and re-titled as \"The Earl Anthony Medford Classic.\" In 2010 and 2011, the event took place in Dublin, California and was titled the Earl Anthony Memorial.\nAnthony was voted into the PBA Hall of Fame in 1981 and the ABC Hall of Fame in 1986.[11] In 2000 he was voted \"Master of the Millennium\" by a wide margin in a nationwide vote conducted by Bowling Magazine.[12] In a Sports Illustrated Magazine national vote he was named the 2nd Greatest Athlete in the history of the State of Washington (behind only former NBA star John Stockton).[13]\nThe late bowling legend Dick Weber dubbed Anthony \"the greatest speed-control bowler ever.\"[4] When Anthony won the 1978 Tournament of Champions to become the first bowler to ever reach 30 titles, Weber was in the broadcast booth and proclaimed Anthony to be \"the undisputed King of Bowling.\"[14] Earl's record of 41 titles stood for 23 years before it was broken by Walter Ray Williams Jr. in 2006,[15] though it increased to 43 in 2008 when the PBA started including ABC Masters titles if they were won by a PBA member.[16] In 14 seasons, Anthony made the top five for the televised final round a record 144 times. Said Bowlers Journal editor Jim Dressel, \"When Earl was in the house, everybody else knew there were only four other spots for TV.\"[6]\nIn 2008, the PBA celebrated fifty years in existence by commissioning a panel of experts to rank the \"50 Greatest Bowlers of the Last 50 Years.\" Anthony was ranked #1 on the list over Weber, despite the fact that Weber had broken many of Anthony's records. However, Weber himself said, \"I feel Earl's record is better than mine because it was more condensed. Earl bowled 14 years and 400 or so events. I\u2019ve bowled well over 600 by now, maybe 700.\"[17] Weber also added, \"When Earl Anthony retired, he didn't have anyone to push him. He probably would have kept going to 50 if that were the case. It's hard to say what would've happened then.\"[18]\nSix-time BWAA Bowler of the Year (1974\u201376 and 1981\u201383)\nSix-time PBA Player of the Year (1974\u201376 and 1981\u201383)[7]\nTwelve-time First Team All-American (1972-83)\nFive-time George Young High Average award winner (1973\u201375, 1980, 1983)\nEstablished a record for most consecutive PBA seasons winning at least one tournament (15), which stood until 2008 when it was broken by Walter Ray Ray Williams Jr.\nHolds PBA record of 15 televised finals appearances in one season (1975, 1981)\nHolds the PBA and Professional Bowling record with 10 major tournament titles (tied with Pete Weber)\nInducted into PBA Hall of Fame, 1981\nInducted into ABC (now USBC) Hall of Fame, 1986\nVoted \"Bowler of the Millennium\" in a 2000 poll conducted by Bowling Digest[19]\nVoted the greatest PBA player ever, when the PBA announced its \"50 Greatest Players of the Last 50 Years\" list in the 2008-09 season.\n^ All-time title leaders at www.pba.com\n^ Goldstein, Richard (16 August 2001). \"Earl Anthony, 63, Bowling's First $1 Million Man, Dies\".

It is bordered by Filwood Park to the west, Brislington to the east, Whitchurch and Hengrove to the south and Totterdown to the north. The settlement was mentioned in the Domesday Book as Canole.[2] Knowle comes from the old English word for hillock, which means a little hill.\nBroadwalk shopping centre provides the majority of the shopping facilities. The Wells Road runs through Knowle from Totterdown to Whitchurch. Broadwalk is a tree lined boulevard that heads westwards towards Filwood.\nRedcatch Park is the main green space with football pitches, children's play area, a MUGA (Multi Games Area), tennis courts and a croquet club. This is supported by The Friends of Redcatch Park, a group of local residents who help Bristol City Council enhance and protect the space and who organise events in the park. The library is within Broadwalk shopping centre.\nCommunity groups operate in and around the Knowle area. Redcatch Community Association run the Redcatch Centre in Redcatch Road, on the boundary of Redcatch Park \u2013 a resource for community groups and private and public events. Clubs and groups include the Knowle and Totterdown Local History Group, Redcatch Rollers (Short Mat Bowling), Redcatch Tea Dance, and Redcatch Art Club who all meet at Redcatch Community Centre. Knowle Community Association run a community centre in The Square, Knowle Park, with activities including Knowle East Youth Club. Other organisations are Broad Walk Neighbourhood Watch, which acts as a portal for the local community of Knowle and those in and around Broad Walk, and the St John Ambulance Knowle & Totterdown Division (www.sja.org.uk/kt).\nThere are good views of the city just above Perrett's Park, along Sylvia Avenue which is lined by Victorian terraces.\n^ \"Knowle\" (PDF). 2011 Census Ward Information Sheet.

        "title": "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on Minimal polynomial (linear algebra)",
        "raw_content": "Minimal polynomial (linear algebra)\nFor the minimal polynomial of an algebraic element of a field, see Minimal polynomial (field theory).\nIn linear algebra, the minimal polynomial \u03bcA of an n \u00d7 n matrix A over a field F is the monic polynomial P over F of least degree such that P(A) = 0. Any other polynomial Q with Q(A) = 0 is a (polynomial) multiple of \u03bcA.\nThe following three statements are equivalent:\n\u03bb is a root of \u03bcA,\n\u03bb is a root of the characteristic polynomial \u03c7A of A,\n\u03bb is an eigenvalue of matrix A.\nThe multiplicity of a root \u03bb of \u03bcA is the largest power m such that Ker((A \u2212 \u03bbIn)m) strictly contains Ker((A \u2212 \u03bbIn)m\u22121). In other words, increasing the exponent up to m will give ever larger kernels, but further increasing the exponent beyond m will just give the same kernel.\nIf the field F is not algebraically closed, then the minimal and characteristic polynomials need not factor according to their roots (in F) alone, in other words they may have irreducible polynomial factors of degree greater than 1. For irreducible polynomials P one has similar equivalences:\nP divides \u03bcA,\nP divides \u03c7A,\nthe kernel of P(A) has dimension at least 1.\nthe kernel of P(A) has dimension at least deg(P).\nLike the characteristic polynomial, the minimal polynomial does not depend on the base field, in other words considering the matrix as one with coefficients in a larger field does not change the minimal polynomial. The reason is somewhat different from for the characteristic polynomial (where it is immediate from the definition of determinants), namely the fact that the minimal polynomial is determined by the relations of linear dependence between the powers of A: extending the base field will not introduce any new such relations (nor of course will it remove existing ones).\nThe minimal polynomial is often the same as the characteristic polynomial, but not always. For example, if A is a multiple aIn of the identity matrix, then its minimal polynomial is X \u2212 a since the kernel of aIn \u2212 A = 0 is already the entire space; on the other hand its characteristic polynomial is (X \u2212 a)n (the only eigenvalue is a, and the degree of the characteristic polynomial is always equal to the dimension of the space). The minimal polynomial always divides the characteristic polynomial, which is one way of formulating the Cayley\u2013Hamilton theorem (for the case of matrices over a field).\nGiven an endomorphism T on a finite-dimensional vector space V over a field F, let IT be the set defined as\nI T = { p \u2208 F [ t ] | p ( T ) = 0 } {\\displaystyle {\\mathit {I}}_{T}=\\{p\\in \\mathbf {F} [t]\\;|\\;p(T)=0\\}}\nwhere F[t] is the space of all polynomials over the field F. IT is a proper ideal of F[t]. Since F is a field, F[t] is a principal ideal domain, thus any ideal is generated by a single polynomial, which is unique up to units in F. A particular choice among the generators can be made, since precisely one of the generators is monic. The minimal polynomial is thus defined to be the monic polynomial which generates IT. It is the monic polynomial of least degree in IT.\nAn endomorphism \u03c6 of a finite dimensional vector space over a field F is diagonalizable if and only if its minimal polynomial factors completely over F into distinct linear factors. The fact that there is only one factor X \u2212 \u03bb for every eigenvalue \u03bb means that the generalized eigenspace for \u03bb is the same as the eigenspace for \u03bb: every Jordan block has size 1. More generally, if \u03c6 satisfies a polynomial equation P(\u03c6) = 0 where P factors into distinct linear factors over F, then it will be diagonalizable: its minimal polynomial is a divisor of P and therefore also factors into distinct linear factors. In particular one has:\nP = X\u2009k \u2212 1: finite order endomorphisms of complex vector spaces are diagonalizable. For the special case k = 2 of involutions, this is even true for endomorphisms of vector spaces over any field of characteristic other than 2, since X\u20092 \u2212 1 = (X \u2212 1)(X + 1) is a factorization into distinct factors over such a field. This is a part of representation theory of cyclic groups.\nP = X\u20092 \u2212 X = X(X \u2212 1): endomorphisms satisfying \u03c62 = \u03c6 are called projections, and are always diagonalizable (moreover their only eigenvalues are 0 and 1).\nBy contrast if \u03bc\u03c6 = X\u2009k with k \u2265 2 then \u03c6 (a nilpotent endomorphism) is not necessarily diagonalizable, since X\u2009k has a repeated root 0.\nThese cases can also be proved directly, but the minimal polynomial gives a unified perspective and proof.\nFor a vector v in V define:\nI T , v = { p \u2208 F [ t ] | p ( T ) ( v ) = 0 } . {\\displaystyle {\\mathit {I}}_{T,v}=\\{p\\in \\mathbf {F} [t]\\;|\\;p(T)(v)=0\\}.}\nThis definition satisfies the properties of a proper ideal. Let \u03bcT,v be the monic polynomial which generates it.\nSince IT,v contains the minimal polynomial \u03bcT, the latter is divisible by \u03bcT,v.\nIf d is the least natural number such that v, T(v), ..., Td(v) are linearly dependent, then there exist unique a0, a1, ..., ad\u22121 in F, not all zero, such that\na 0 v + a 1 T ( v ) + \u22ef + a d \u2212 1 T d \u2212 1 ( v ) + T d ( v ) = 0 {\\displaystyle a_{0}v+a_{1}T(v)+\\cdots +a_{d-1}T^{d-1}(v)+T^{d}(v)=0}\nand for these coefficients one has\n\u03bc T , v ( t ) = a 0 + a 1 t + \u2026 + a d \u2212 1 t d \u2212 1 + t d . {\\displaystyle \\mu _{T,v}(t)=a_{0}+a_{1}t+\\ldots +a_{d-1}t^{d-1}+t^{d}.}\nLet the subspace W be the image of \u03bcT,v(T), which is T-stable. Since \u03bcT,v(T) annihilates at least the vectors v, T(v), ..., Td-1(v), the codimension of W is at least d.\nThe minimal polynomial \u03bcT is the product of \u03bcT,v and the minimal polynomial Q of the restriction of T to W. In the (likely) case that W has dimension 0 one has Q = 1 and therefore \u03bcT = \u03bcT,v; otherwise a recursive computation of Q suffices to find \u03bcT.\nDefine T to be the endomorphism of R3 with matrix, on the canonical basis,\n( 1 \u2212 1 \u2212 1 1 \u2212 2 1 0 1 \u2212 3 ) . {\\displaystyle {\\begin{pmatrix}1&-1&-1\\\\1&-2&1\\\\0&1&-3\\end{pmatrix}}.}\nTaking the first canonical basis vector e1 and its repeated images by T one obtains\ne 1 = [ 1 0 0 ] , T \u22c5 e 1 = [ 1 1 0 ] . T 2 \u22c5 e 1 = [ 0 \u2212 1 1 ] and T 3 \u22c5 e 1 = [ 0 3 \u2212 4 ] {\\displaystyle e_{1}={\\begin{bmatrix}1\\\\0\\\\0\\end{bmatrix}},\\quad T\\cdot e_{1}={\\begin{bmatrix}1\\\\1\\\\0\\end{bmatrix}}.\\quad T^{2}\\cdot e_{1}={\\begin{bmatrix}0\\\\-1\\\\1\\end{bmatrix}}{\\mbox{ and}}\\quad T^{3}\\cdot e_{1}={\\begin{bmatrix}0\\\\3\\\\-4\\end{bmatrix}}}\nof which the first three are easily seen to be linearly independent, and therefore span all of R3. The last one then necessarily is a linear combination of the first three, in fact\nT\u20093\u22c5e1 = \u22124T\u20092\u22c5e1 \u2212 T\u22c5e1 + e1,\n\u03bcT,e1 = X\u20093 + 4X\u20092 + X \u2212 I.\nThis is in fact also the minimal polynomial \u03bcT and the characteristic polynomial \u03c7T: indeed \u03bcT,e1 divides \u03bcT which divides \u03c7T, and since the first and last are of degree 3 and all are monic, they must all be the same. Another reason is that in general if any polynomial in T annihilates a vector v, then it also annihilates T\u22c5v (just apply T to the equation that says that it annihilates v), and therefore by iteration it annihilates the entire space generated by the iterated images by T of v; in the current case we have seen that for v = e1 that space is all of R3, so \u03bcT,e1(T) = 0. Indeed one verifies for the full matrix that T\u20093 + 4T\u20092 + T \u2212 I3 is the null matrix:\n[ 0 1 \u2212 3 3 \u2212 13 23 \u2212 4 19 \u2212 36 ] + 4 [ 0 0 1 \u2212 1 4 \u2212 6 1 \u2212 5 10 ] + [ 1 \u2212 1 \u2212 1 1 \u2212 2 1 0 1 \u2212 3 ] + [ \u2212 1 0 0 0 \u2212 1 0 0 0 \u2212 1 ] = [ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ] {\\displaystyle {\\begin{bmatrix}0&1&-3\\\\3&-13&23\\\\-4&19&-36\\end{bmatrix}}+4{\\begin{bmatrix}0&0&1\\\\-1&4&-6\\\\1&-5&10\\end{bmatrix}}+{\\begin{bmatrix}1&-1&-1\\\\1&-2&1\\\\0&1&-3\\end{bmatrix}}+{\\begin{bmatrix}-1&0&0\\\\0&-1&0\\\\0&0&-1\\end{bmatrix}}={\\begin{bmatrix}0&0&0\\\\0&0&0\\\\0&0&0\\end{bmatrix}}}\nLang, Serge (2002), Algebra, Graduate Texts in Mathematics, 211 (Revised third ed.), New York: Springer-Verlag, ISBN 978-0-387-95385-4, MR 1878556\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Minimal_polynomial_(linear_algebra)&oldid=783940131\"\nThis content was retrieved from Wikipedia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_polynomial_(linear_algebra)\nThis page is based on the copyrighted Wikipedia article \"Minimal polynomial (linear algebra)\"; it is used under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License (CC-BY-SA).

We will tally all events and be able to submit the total numbers of Canadians participating in events to the IIHF,\u201d said Mandi Duhamel, manager of female development at Hockey Canada.\nLast year there were 471 events in 42 countries on six continents and the IIHF is hoping for even more success this year. From Australia and South Africa to the Northwest Territories, events were held from come and try sessions, meet and greets with national team players and exhibition matches.\nIn Canada the game will be celebrated coat to coast through grassroots programming that is led by local communities, minor hockey association\u2019s and families.\n\u201cTogether, the International Ice Hockey Federation and Hockey Canada are striving to grow the game of female hockey on an National and International Level, now you are helping us achieve this,\u201d said Duhamel.\nThis will be the seventh edition of the recruitment event to help grow women\u2019s hockey around the world and spread the sport to new regions both in established hockey countries and new ones. The first event, held in 2011 saw almost 165 events in 20 countries and four continents.\nFrom small girls to adult women, the World Girls Ice Hockey Weekend is an opportunity to try out the sport in an organized event for beginners and to simply to have fun in a safe environment.\nThe IIHF asks those involved to follow their tracker during the weekend on social media to see photos or search the hashtag #WGIIHW and use it when posting yourself.\nHot Ticket Event\nWorld Girls Hockey Weekend came from the success of World Girls Hockey Day, which was launched by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) in 2011. The following year, the event exploded to span a full weekend with double the amount of events. The 2013 WGHW featured the first long game, now a core part of the program. Canada\u2019s long game kicks off in Newfoundland and Labrador in the morning and concludes in the evening in British Columbia. Typically, the Long Game pits Team Red vs. Team White in Atom, Peewee, Bantam, Midget, and Senior matches, resulting in a cumulative score of games nationwide.\nHere is a look at participation numbers for the last six events, from IIHF:\n2011 (World Girls Hockey Day):\nWickenheiser, Girls Hockey Calgary Vying to Bring Indian Team to Wickfest 2018\nEach morning during the winter in -30 C temperatures, a hockey...\nKeywords: Female Minor Hockey",

        "raw_content": "Two days ago, Hillary Clinton blew up at a Bernie Sanders supporter who accused her of accepting money from the fossil fuel industry. Ms. Clinton\u2019s exact words:\n\u201cI do not have \u2013 I have money from people who work for fossil fuel companies. I am so sick \u2013 I am so sick of the Sanders campaign lying about me. I\u2019m sick of it\u201d\nLet\u2019s stop here and see if she\u2019s right.\nFrom Nolan McCaskill\u2019s article at politico.com:\nAccording to a fact check, it is true that Clinton\u2019s campaign hasn\u2019t accepted donations directly from the industry \u2014 doing so would violate campaign law \u2014 and she hadn\u2019t gotten contributions from PACs affiliated with the industry, either. But she has received more than $330,000 from oil and gas industry employees.\nSanders\u2019 campaign said Thursday evening that Clinton has relied heavily on donations from oil and gas lobbyists and again called on her to accept Sanders\u2019 proposal to debate in New York ahead of its April 19 primary.\n\u201cIt\u2019s no wonder that back in December Clinton refused to agree to stop accepting money from the fossil fuel industry when pressed at a town hall, saying, \u2018I\u2019m not going to do a litmus test on them,\u2019\u201d Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs said in a statement. \u201cIf Secretary Clinton wants to discuss this and other important issues she should stop stalling and agree to a debate in New York before the April 19 primary election.\u201d\nIn other words, if you want to get really technical, Ms. Clinton is right. If you want to talk real, she is doing what she seems to do best\u2026lying to our faces.\nAnd how is Bernie Sanders reacting to this insult?\nFrom Elizabeth Landers\u2019 article at cnn.com:\nIn an unusually direct move, Sen. Bernie Sanders on Friday called on Hillary Clinton to apologize to him for saying that his campaign is lying about her relationship with fossil fuel money.\n\u201cSecretary Clinton owes us an apology. We were not lying. We were telling the truth,\u201d the Vermont senator said during a standard section of his stump speech here.\n\u201cThe truth is that Secretary Clinton has relied heavily on funds from lobbyists working for the oil, gas and coal industry. According to an analysis done by Greenpeace, Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign and her super PAC have received more than $4.5 million from the fossil fuel industry,\u201d he said.\nOk, what do we have here?\nHillary Clinton says she gets nothing from the fossil fuel industry and calls Sanders\u2019 people liars.\nFactcheck (usually pretty Democrat friendly, in my opinion) says she is sidestepping the truth and has gotten more than $330,000.\nSanders says that when you add in the lobbyists, that soars to $4.5 million dollars.\nRemember how friendly the competition was between Hillary Clintona and Bernie Sanders\u2026when Hillary didn\u2019t think Sanders had any chance of winning?\nFunny how that changed when it became competitive. Now she\u2019s angrily name-calling, and he\u2019s demanding apologies.\nRemind you of any other political party in the news recently?\nAll one of them needs to do now is dye his or her hair blonde/orange, and comb it over a few times\u2026.(of the two, I prefer Bernie \u2013 he\u2019d look funnier\u2026besides, Hillary, with Trump-length blonde hair, is part of the way there already).\nI don\u2019t see the lie here, she says\n\u201cI have money from people who work for fossil fuel companies.\u201d.\nfree \u2013 if a Bernie Sanders supporter on a meet-and-greet line can fluster her that badly, what do you suppose she will sound like when it\u2019s Vladimir Putin?\nKen, i would think it would be even worse than the video of the reset button moment. She is an awful person, but i still don\u2019t see where she lied about the oil money.\nfree \u2013 one of two things appears to be true: either she misspoke and meant to say \u201cI do not have \u2013 I don\u2019t have money\u2026\u201d, or she meant it as stated, to suggest that the only fossil fuel money she has is from individuals who, by coincidence, work for such companies\u2026.(really? $330,000 worth, that coincidentally comes from people whose livelihood depends on these companies, and they all \u201cknow\u201d how little she thinks of their employers?).\nRegardless of which it is, if Sanders is even partly correct, is a disingenuous, fraudulent response.\nTo tell you the truth, I\u2019m having a lot of trouble finding the positive part of what she said.",

        "raw_content": "Golden Nugget Proposed Merger With Caesars\nGolden Nugget owner Tilman Fertitta has approached Caesars Entertainment about a possible merger, according to industry reports. Fertitta\u2019s proposal values Caesars at $13 per share, 27 percent more than where the company\u2019s stock is currently trading.\nNothing official is going on, as far as we know, but if this were to happen, it would be a \u201creverse merger.\u201d Caesars is larger than Landry\u2019s Inc., Fertitta\u2019s company which owns Golden Nugget, and would actually be the company to acquire its smaller rival. Landry\u2019s is also a private company; shares in Landry\u2019s would be exchanged for those of the publicly traded Caesars. As Fertitta is the sole shareholder of Landry\u2019s, he would become the largest shareholder of Caesars. In his proposal, he would also become Chairman and CEO.\nThough Landry\u2019s owns the Golden Nugget properties, it is perhaps best known for its restaurant chains which include Rainforest Caf\u00e9, Morton\u2019s The Steakhouse, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., and McCormick & Schmick\u2019s Seafood & Steaks.\nPokerStars Unveils SECOOP for Portugal, Spain, France\nNext Sunday, PokerStars will launch a new Championship of Online Poker tournament series exclusively for players in Portugal, Spain, and France, the Southern Europe Championship of Online Poker (SECOOP). It will run from October 28th through November 12th, will consist of 149 events, and will feature more than \u20ac10 million in guaranteed prizes.\n\u201cWe are happy to transform our renowned COOP series into a COOP specifically for our players in Southern Europe that will allow them to compete for bigger prize pools in prestigious tournaments,\u201d said PokerStars Director of Poker Innovation and Operations Severin Rasset in a press release Tuesday. \u201cOur players have really enjoyed our shared liquidity offerings and we look forward to seeing everyone playing at the SECOOP virtual felt.\u201d\nBuy-ins range from \u20ac5 to \u20ac250, but unlike WCOOP and SCOOP, there are no tiered buy-ins of the same event. Each event has just one tournament at the scheduled time, though many of the tournaments repeat at the same buy-in level throughout SECOOP. The SECOOP Main Event will cost \u20ac250 and will be held on November 11th.\nUKGC Fines Paddy Power Betfair \u00a32.2 Million\nWhen you operate in a regulated online gambling environment, you have to follow proper rules and procedures. And it looks like Paddy Power Betfair (PPB) did not. The United Kingdom Gambling Commission (UKGC) has fined the company \u00a32.2 million for failing to employ anti-money laundering and problem gambling procedures in five different cases in 2016.\nThe most egregious of the violations was a situation in which Simon Price lost \u2013 according to what he said to police \u2013 around \u00a3700,000 at Betfair in 2016. PPB\u2019s screw-up here was that with all of his depositing and losing, it never bothered to ask him where all of that money came from. As it turned out, he was chief executive of Birmingham Dogs Home, an animal shelter, and he and his wife, Alayna Warner, embezzled \u00a3894,754 from the organization. Most of that ended up at Betfair. Price was sentenced to five years in prison and Warner was given a two-year suspended sentence.\nOf the \u00a32.2 million fine, \u00a3500,000 will be returned to victims in the cases, \u00a31.7 million will go GambleAware, a charity which works to help problem gamblers, and \u00a350,045 will be used to pay the UKGC for its investigation costs.",

        "raw_content": "How to Get Back With Your Ex Girlfriend - Step by Step\nGot dumped by your girlfriend? You're not alone. Break ups happen all the time - but it's what you do next that defines the final outcome.\nIf you'd like to work toward getting back together with your ex, it's important to find out which techniques work for your own unique situation. Doing the right thing can make the difference between getting your ex back or sending her running in the opposite direction. This is why it's crucial that you know exactly where to begin (and how to approach her) before you can even get started.\nEvery single time a relationship ends, you're faced with the same two choices: move forward, or try to fix what's broken. Almost every guy in the world tries to get their ex back at one time or another, and some of them even succeed. But the ones that fail? They moved too fast, acted too hastily, or made poor decisions when it came to choosing the right method. You'll never get your her back unless you can calm down and start thinking rationally - with your head and not your heart.\n\"So how do I win back my ex girlfriend?\"\nThere are many different ways to make your ex want you again, but the techniques below will give you a pretty good head start. Don't just read them... understand why they work, and how they apply to your own break up. Once you do, you can use the lessons learned here to improve the situation with your ex.\nStop Everything You're Doing and Take a Huge Step Back\nAs soon as your relationship ends, you'll think your exgirlfriend is deadset on moving forward without you. This isn't always the case. Many times a girl breaks up with you but still has strong feelings for you, yet the one thing that's always the same is this: your ex will watch you carefully for your reaction to the break up. How you conduct yourself in the days just after she ends things will either make or break your chances of getting her back in your arms again.\nGetting back your ex requires you to stop everything and take a big step backward. The best way to move on right now is to accept what happened for exactly what it is: a break up. Your ex dumped you, and you're now single. Trying to fight it, argue against it, plead or beg for your relationship back won't help. In fact, it'll hurt more than anything else right now. Your ex won't want you back if she doesn't respect you... so don't throw away her respect by groveling. Ditto for getting angry, bitter, or raging against the break up. All of these things make you seem jealous and desperate, and they'll hurt your chances of reconciliation.\nKeeping calm and cool are two of the best ways to handle the entire situation. Do this, and you've already taken a big step toward getting back together with your girlfriend.\nLearning to Immediately Accept Your Break Up\nWhen she breaks up with you, your girlfriend will prepare herself for what you might do. But you know what she doesn't expect? No reaction at all.\nImagine your exgirlfriend's shock and surprise when you listen to what she has to say... and then nod your head in agreement.\n\"Yes, things have been pretty bad between us. Maybe we should break up.\"\nHer jaw is going to hit the floor before that last sentence leaves your lips.\nAccepting the fact that your ex has chosen to end the relationship gives you a tremendous advantage over those guys who fight their girlfriends' decision by kicking and screaming. You're agreeing with her, which puts you directly in line with her thought process. She'll have all these counter-arguments prepared to use against you... and yet she'll need none of them. Because you're shrugging your shoulders, saying \"okay\", and walking away with your dignity (and her respect) intact.\nAnd if you've already broken up, and think it's too late? You're dead wrong. It's never too late to let your ex know you've finally accepted the break up. There are some really good techniques for getting indirectly in touch with her, to show her that you've reached this point. Learn what they are, and use them if your break up is already more than a few days old.\nDisappear Completely and Break All Contact\nIn asking yourself how do I win back my ex girlfriend, you should also be asking how quickly you want to do it. If you want to get your ex back fast, you'll have to learn the golden rule: make her miss you, and she'll want you back. To do this, you first must disappear. Your ex can't miss you if you're always around, which is why the sooner you can drop out of sight the faster you can work toward getting back together with your exgirlfriend.\nNot contacting your ex in any way means just that: no emails, texts, phone calls, or social network communication. When you take yourself away from your ex girlfriend's world, she starts to wonder where you are. This is when your ex will miss you. This is when she'll start looking around, maybe even thinking up reasons to get in touch with you again. The no-contact approach works because of one simple fact: your ex girlfriend never expected to lose you completely.\nShe was looking forward to letting you go little by little, bit by bit, staying connected on some friendly, social levels while she decided what she wanted to do next. Having you \"still there\" was an important part of her comfort level. And when you're utterly gone? She's going to become very uncomfortable, rather quickly.\nAre you over the relationship? Do you still love her? Did you find somebody else? Why haven't you tried to contact her? These thoughts will fill her head and make her thoughts spin in a matter of days, not weeks. Every girl who dumps someone still wants to know what they're up to... your ex wants to see you upset that you lost her, not \"okay\" with the fact that you're no longer dating. Leaving her alone makes her lonely. Not getting in touch with your ex rattles her out of the comfortable little break up nest she spent so much time building.\nThe thought of completely losing you all at once will make her question the break up, or even reverse her decision to end things. Make sure you fully disappear, in order to pull this off correctly.\nAnd if you're still reluctant or afraid to break contact? Watch this free video. By the time you're finished with it, it should set you straight in regards to good (positive) contact vs. bad (unwanted) contact.\nContacting Your Ex Girlfriend: Re-opening the Lines of Communication\nYou never want to take this step too early, but you should know when enough solo time has passed between you. Reconnecting with your ex at this point is a lot easier than it would've been right after she broke up with you. By now you have your own life, and more importantly, your own mysteries that she knows nothing about. If you broke contact correctly, your ex will be dying to know what you've been up to. Women are, above all else, insanely curious. Hearing from you at this point will be very welcome to her.\nThere are ways of reestablishing a connection with your ex girlfriend, but even better there are ways of getting your ex to contact you. \"How do I win back my ex girlfriend?\" by learning the techniques and methods that are most successful for reconnection, and then applying them to your own situation. Once you've started talking again, you can move onto the next phase of fixing your break up: setting up the reunion date.\nMeeting Your Ex For The First Time Since She Dumped You\nBy the time you've arranged to see your ex again, the two of you will be in a totally different place then when you first broke up. Since you've taken some time apart, you've hopefully both had the chance to view things from each others' perspective. By stepping into your ex's shoes, you can see how she viewed your old relationship, and understand what was wrong from her point of view. This is crucial to getting back together again.\nSeeing your ex again should be something you both look forward to. Pick a place that she likes, or one that's close to where she lives or works. Make it casual, and easy - like a lunch or coffee shop. Dinner is too heavy, and you don't want a very long date for the first meeting. If you remember only one thing, let it be this: make your ex feel comfortable. The more cushy you can make her feel, the more she'll open up and enjoy herself. You don't want her to come to see you in a standoffish, cautious, or sensitive mood.\nLet the conversation flow naturally, and try not to talk about anything serious. Definitely don't mention the break up. Ask about work, school, home and family. Tell her what you've been up to, and put a positive spin on everything. Be humorous, and let your ex relax. If she's comfortable doing the talking, let her do most of it. If she's shy, try to gently pull her out of her shell. How this date goes will determine whether or not you'll get another one. In trying to get your girlfriend back, you need to stir up some of those old romantic feelings she once had for you.\nAsking yourself the question how do I win back my ex girlfriend is a great beginning, but you need to follow through. Your chances of getting back your ex will always be greatest when you've got a well-laid plan for success.\nMapping out the step by step process you'll take to win her back could require some doing, but the advanced planning will help you on the path to fixing your break up. And knowledge is key when it comes to understanding what to say or do. The more you know, the better off you always are.",

With the end of the Cold War, there is also renewed interest in the peoples formerly behind the Iron Curtain, such as the Kosovars or Estonians. Other peoples, like the Basques and Walloons, continue to be in the media, although the historical context for the present conflicts is often not well understood.\nEncyclopedia of European Peoples is an A-to-Z reference to the peoples of Europe, from ancient to modern times, summarizing their origin, language, history, culture, and relationship to other peoples. This encyclopedia includes entries on all peoples that have at one time maintained a cultural identity. Thus, the reader will be able to find entries on the Gauls and Normans, but also an entry on the \"French: nationality,\" that describes who they are today with cross-references to the various ancestral peoples.\nMain entries begin with a fact sheet and a timeline and conclude with a further reading section. Sidebars are placed throughout, outlining the biographies of individuals critical to the shaping of European history, and approximately 200 black-and-white photographs, illustrations, and maps add to the engaging text. Contents include a master alphabetical list of entries, with alternate names and language families or other classifications; entries organized by language family, ethnicity, nationalities, or regions; a table listing the languages of Europe, past and present; a summary of the geography of Europe; a summary of the prehistoric hominids once inhabiting that continent; a list of individuals mentioned in the text, organized alphabetically according to European peoples; and an alphabetical list of those individuals featured in biographical sidebars, citing the entries where the sidebars are located.

        "title": "Non-Cannabis Plants That Contain Cannabinoids",
        "raw_content": "Non-Cannabis Plants That Contain Cannabinoids\nFor years it was thought that cannabis was the only plant capable of producing natural occuring cannabinoids. However, in the last few years research has been conducted that shows that cannabis is not the only plant that produces these compounds, and that they are actually quite abundant in other plants! It appears that other plants produce chemical compounds that directly and indirectly affect the Endocannabinoid system (ECS).\nWhat is the Endocannabinoid system and how does it work?\nThe ECS is a biological system of receptor sites which allow compounds or ligands known as cannabinoids to bind with these receptor sites. Picture a key fitting a lock. This system regulates important functions of mammals. Every mammal on the planet has an ECS. If you have ever slept,eaten, forgot, or relaxed then you have used your ECS.\nThe receptors for cannabinoids are one of the most abundant receptors in the human brain and central nervous system. They are expressed in nearly every tissue and cell. The two main receptors are the CB1 and CB2 receptor. CB1 are concentrated mostly in the brain and on neurons throughout the body, while the CB2 is mostly found in the lymphatic system. Given the abundance of these receptors, it\u2019s not hard to imagine that these receptors are important, even crucial for some biological processes. However, THC and other cannabis constituents are not the only plant compounds which can affect the ECS.\nWhat are Cannabinoids Endocannibinoids Phytocannibinoids and Cannabimimetics?\nCannabinoids are lipid-based (fatty acid) molecules that all act to some degree on the cannabinoid receptors, which are a primary component of the endocannabinoid system. Cannabinoids produced by plants are known as phytocannabinoids, those produced by the body are known as endocannabinoids, and lab-synthesized compounds are simply known as synthetic cannabinoids. As well as cannabinoids, we also have an important class of non-classical cannabinoids known as cannabimimetics. They are called cannabimimetics as they literally mimic the biological activity of the classical cannabinoids, despite not sharing their molecular structure. Dozens of different compounds are now known to act either directly or indirectly on the ECS.\nHere are a few plants beside cannabis that produce phytocannabinoids or cannabimimetics.\nConeflower \u2013 Echinacea\nThis plant is most famous as an alternative herbal remedy. Common uses include fighting colds, migraine relief, an anti anxiety, and an energy booster. Echinacea doesnt produce cannabinoids but it does produce a compound in the cannabimimetic category. Similar to THCA (Tetrahydracannabinol acid, the precursor to THC found in raw cannabis before it has been heated and undergone a process known as decarboxylation where a carbon atom is released from the molecule chain thus converting THCA into psychoactive THC) in cannabis, It contains a series of compounds known as N-alkyl amides (NAAs). This compound in echinacea is responsible for regulating the immune system, pain and inflammation. It does this by engaging with CB2 receptors in the lymphatic system.\nSome cannabis strains like Hash Plant have a peppery taste and aroma. The reason for this? They contain high levels of a particular terpenoid known as beta-caryophyllene (BCP). A terpene is a molecule related to aroma. These are found in large concentrations in a plants essential oils. Unsurprisingly, this distinct flavor is also found heavily in black pepper. Fairly recently it was discovered that BCP actually functions as a cannabimimetic. Like many of the other plant compounds listed in this article, BCP has a binding affinity with the CB2 receptor. Research has suggested that the anti-inflammatory compounds of this terpene make it therapeutically valuable for treating conditions like arthritis and osteoporosis. Other research has indicated that BCP can increase the efficacy of anticancer drugs.\nA plant found in South Africa, and known to the natives, this daisy has been found to possess mood-stabilizing and anti-depressant effects due to a large amounts of a lesser known phytocannabinoid, cannabigerol (CBG).\nAt the International Cannabinoid Research Society, Italian researcher Giovanni Appendino unveiled his discovery that cannabinoid-like compounds are found in Helichrysum. Helichrysum is used in African ritual ceremonies as an aromatic incense and is believed to have psychotropic effects.\nLiverwort \u2013 Radula marginata\nResearchers believe this plant could be one of the only other plants, besides cannabis, that produces compounds capable of engaging the CB1 receptors, the receptors responsible for binding THC and thus the euphoric high. This plant contains large amounts of perrottetinenic acid, which is strikingly similar to THC, the psychoactive component in cannabis. Liverwort is not currently known to have any psychoactive effects, however. What it is known for is its ability to treat bronchitis, and historically it has been used to alleviate gallbladder, liver, and bladder problems.\nElectric Daisy \u2013 Acmella oleracea\nA flower native to the Amazon river basin, the electric daisy has been known to the indigenous population for centuries as an analgesic. It is successful at blocking neurons from firing at nerve endings, preventing the sensation of pain. The compounds found in the electric daisy are called N-Isobutylamides, and similarly to other cannabinoid-like compounds they regulate pain and inflammation. This natural remedy is being explored for its benefit in relation to dentistry for its use as a topical analgesic much like those in the Caine family of anaesthetic.\nCacao \u2013 Theobroma cacao\nAnother plant with compounds in the cannabimimetic family, the cacao plant has many therapeutic properties and it is known to be a powerful, and delicious superfood, rich in free radical fighting antioxidants. (It would be good to mention the US government holds a patent on CBD for its antioxidant properties) Cacao engages with the endocannabinoid system by deactivating the enzyme called FAAH, which typically breaks down the endocannabinoid known as anandamide, an endogenous cannabinoid produced by the body, and found in breastmilk. Since anandamide is identified to be the body\u2019s natural version of THC, (ananda is a sanskrit word that means \u201cbliss\u201d) eating unprocessed chocolate high in raw cacao increases the amounts of anandamide in the brain because the FAAH enzyme responsible for metabolizing it is less active.\nThe result is similar to the euphoria many people experience when smoking cannabis \u2013 a general mental state of being relaxed and happy \u2013 although the result is nowhere near as potent as with smoked canbabis. Researchers at the Neurosciences Institute of San Diego were able to back up the claims that chocolate does contain three compounds that act as healing cannabinoids\nSource: http://www.theearthtribe.com/2016/06/06/check-out-these-non-marijuana-plants-that-contain-cannabinoids/",

        "raw_content": "Leading global telecommunications company uses Jive's interactive intranet to unify its large worldwide employee base\nPALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Jive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: JIVE), the leading provider of modern communications and collaboration solutions for business, today announced that Deutsche Telekom, one of the world's leading telecommunications companies, has reached a significant milestone of employee engagement with its Jive-n interactive intranet solution. Deutsche Telekom rolled out Jive in February of 2012 and has seen strong adoption across its employee base, recently reaching 100,000 active users and helping build greater transparency, connection, engagement and alignment across the global company. As a result of the success, Deutsche Telekom was recently recognized at the 2015 Intranet Innovation Awards for its transparency and the engaging ways employees help shape the company. In addition, CEO Timotheus H\u00f6ttges' internal blog on Jive, called \"Tim's Base,\" won this year's platinum award by the German Public Relations Association.\nDeutsche Telekom operates in more than 50 countries with approximately 151 million mobile customers and 228,000 employees worldwide. Prior to implementing Jive, the company did not have a worldwide central platform for employees to communicate, collaborate and network, nor a place to get an overview of company activities and news.\nThe Jive interactive intranet solution is available for all Deutsche Telekom employees to connect with each other, get answers and information they need to do their jobs, and work together to make decisions and execute activity. With over 100,000 registered members, and an additional 85,000 employees accessing news and information without registration, over half of a million pieces of content have been created and shared across the company.\n\"Without Jive, we couldn't have achieved the transparency we now have at Deutsche Telekom. Jive has provided our teams with an interactive intranet that is easy to use, easy to collaborate in and easy to access from any device around the world,\" said Michael Wand, project manager at Deutsche Telekom. \"Jive has made a significant impact on how our employees connect, collaborate and communicate, driving strategic alignment, a more unified culture and increased productivity.\"\nJive has transformed executive outreach at Deutsche Telekom, providing an interactive platform for management to engage with its employees and foster authentic dialogue\u2014effectively bridging the communications gap between its executives and employees. The German Public Relations Association hailed CEO Timotheus H\u00f6ttges' award winning blog as, \"absolutely up to date and close to the boss.\" The company also simplified its IT structure and achieved cost savings by leveraging Jive-n: retiring several legacy IT systems, improving communication and collaboration within the IT team, and streamlining change management by using custom activity streams to inform employees on ongoing changes.\n\"Deutsche Telekom exemplifies the limitless possibilities a company can achieve when embracing the vision of an interactive intranet\u2014from driving alignment and cost savings, to executive engagement with globally dispersed employees,\" said David Macmillan, vice president of international and general manager of EMEA at Jive Software. \"We love seeing our customers thrive and it is especially rewarding to have played a role in Deutsche Telekom's successful digital transformation, one that has led it to be recognized among its peers as having one of the year's most innovative intranet sites in the world and noteworthy executive blogs.\"\nDeutsche Telekom joins other leading telecommunications providers, including Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco, EMC, Globe Telecom, Singtel and T-Mobile, which have built world-class internal and external communities with Jive. In this rapidly evolving industry, Jive helps companies more easily enter new markets, drive co-innovation with customers and partners, and streamline their cost structures.\nTo view the original version on PR Newswire, visit:http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/deutsche-telekoms-award-winning-jive-powered-intranet-surpasses-100000-users-300181600.html\nJason Khoury, Jive Software, +1 650 847 8308, Jason.Khoury@jivesoftware.com; or Michaela Krause, Ballou PR for Jive Software, +49 172 653 25 44, ela@balloupr.com",

(the \u201cSunoco Logistics Merger\u201d), at which time it changed its name from \u201cEnergy Transfer Partners, L.P.\u201d to \u201cEnergy Transfer, LP\u201d and Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. changed its name to \u201cEnergy Transfer Partners, L.P.\u201d Following the completion of the Sunoco Logistics Merger, ETLP has no remaining publicly traded units outstanding. Additionally, subsequent to the Sunoco Logistics Merger, ETLP deconsolidated Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P.

ETC OLP and Regency own and operate, through their wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries, natural gas gathering systems, intrastate natural gas pipeline systems and gas processing plants and are engaged in the business of purchasing, gathering, transporting, processing, and marketing natural gas and NGLs in the states of Texas, Louisiana, New Mexico, West Virginia, Denver and Ohio.\nET Interstate, with revenues consisting primarily of fees earned from natural gas transportation services and operational gas sales. ET Interstate is the parent company of:\nTranswestern, engaged in interstate transportation of natural gas. Transwestern\u2019s revenues consist primarily of fees earned from natural gas transportation services and operational gas sales.\nETC FEP, which directly owns a 50% interest in FEP, which owns 100% of the Fayetteville Express interstate natural gas pipeline.\nETC Tiger, engaged in interstate transportation of natural gas.\nCrossCountry, which indirectly owns a 50% interest in Citrus, which owns 100% of the FGT interstate natural gas pipeline.\nETC MEP, which directly owns a 50% interest in MEP.\nET Rover, which owns a 65% interest in Rover pipeline.\nETC Compression, LLC, engaged in natural gas compression services and related equipment sales.\nETP Holdco, which indirectly owns Panhandle and Sunoco, Inc. Panhandle owns and operates assets in the regulated and unregulated natural gas industry and is primarily engaged in the transportation and storage of natural gas in the United States. Sunoco, Inc. owned and operated retail marketing assets, which were contributed to Sunoco LP in March 2016. Subsequent to this transaction, Sunoco Inc.\u2019s assets primarily consist of its ownership in Retail Holdings, which owns noncontrolling interests in Sunoco LP and PES. Subsequent to the Sunoco Logistics Merger, ETLP holds an equity method investment in ETP through ETP Holdco\u2019s ownership of ETP Class E, Class G, and Class K units.\nOur financial statements reflect the following reportable business segments:\n\u2022intrastate transportation and storage;\n\u2022interstate transportation and storage;\nIn May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (\u201cFASB\u201d) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (\u201cASU 2014-09\u201d), which clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue based on the core principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Partnership expects to adopt ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018 and will apply the cumulative catchup transition method, which requires recognition, upon the date of initial application, of the cumulative effect of the retrospective application of the standard.\nWe are continuing the process of evaluating our revenue contracts by segment and fee type to determine the potential impact of adopting the new standard. At this point in our evaluation process, we have determined that the timing and/or amount of revenue that we recognize on certain contracts (as discussed below) may be impacted by the adoption of the new standard; however, we are still in the process of quantifying these impacts and cannot say whether or not they would be material to our financial statements.\nWe currently anticipate a change to revenues and costs associated with the accounting for noncash consideration in multiple of our reportable segments as well as the accounting for certain processing contracts in our midstream segment. We do not expect these changes in the accounting for noncash consideration or processing contracts to impact net income.\nWe are still evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to contributions in aid of construction costs (\u201cCIAC\u201d) arrangements and materiality of any related changes. While we do not expect any impacts to net income from the application of the standard to other transactions, we have not concluded whether the application of the standard to CIAC transactions could impact net income.\nWe continue to assess the impact of the disclosure requirements under the new standard and are evaluating the manner in which we will disaggregate revenue into categories that show how economic factors affect the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows generated from contracts with customers. In addition, we are in the process of implementing appropriate changes to our business processes, systems and controls to support recognition and disclosure under the new standard. We continue to monitor additional authoritative or interpretive guidance related to the new standard as it becomes\navailable, as well as comparing our conclusions on specific interpretative issues to other peers in our industry, to the extent that such information is available to us.\nIn August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12 \u201cDerivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.\u201d The amendments in this update improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity\u2019s risk management activities in its financial statements. In addition, the amendments in this update make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current GAAP. This ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact that adopting this new standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.\nRover Contribution Agreement\nIn July 2017, ETP announced that it had entered into a contribution agreement with a fund managed by Blackstone Energy Partners and Blackstone Capital Partners (\u201cBlackstone\u201d), for the purchase by Blackstone of a 49.9% interest in the holding company that owns 65% of the Rover pipeline (\u201cRover Holdco\u201d). The agreement with Blackstone required Blackstone to contribute, at closing, funds to reimburse ETP for its pro rata share of the Rover construction costs incurred by ETP through the closing date, along with the payment of additional amounts subject to certain adjustments. The transaction closed in October 2017. As a result of this closing, Rover Holdco is now owned 50.1% by ETP and 49.9% by Blackstone.\nWest Texas Gulf Pipe Line Contribution\nIn August 2017, certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of ETP contributed their equity ownership of West Texas Gulf Pipe Line (\u201cWTG\u201d) Company to ETP Holdco. This contribution is considered a transaction between commonly controlled entities and therefore no gain or loss was recognized as a result of the contribution. The months of May and June 2017 have been retrospectively restated to include WTG.\nThe net change in operating assets and liabilities (net of effects of acquisitions and deconsolidations) included in cash flows from operating activities is comprised as follows:\nDerivative assets and liabilities, net\nNet change in operating assets and liabilities, net of effects of acquisitions and deconsolidations\nNon-cash investing and financing activities are as follows:\nSunoco LP limited partner interest received in exchange for contribution of the Sunoco, Inc. retail business to Sunoco LP\nNet gains from subsidiary common unit issuances\nContribution of property, plant and equipment from noncontrolling interest\nNatural gas and NGLs\nSpare parts and other\nWe utilize commodity derivatives to manage price volatility associated with our natural gas inventory. Changes in fair value of designated hedged inventory are recorded in inventory on our consolidated balance sheets and cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of operations.\nUpon the completion of the Sunoco Logistics Merger, the Partnership deconsolidated ETP (formerly Sunoco Logistics). The Partnership holds an equity method investment in ETP due to its ownership of ETP Class E, Class G and Class K units.\nBased on the estimated borrowing rates currently available to us and our subsidiaries for loans with similar terms and average maturities, the aggregate fair value and carrying amount of our consolidated debt obligations as of September 30, 2017 was $28.09 billion and $26.71 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, the aggregate fair value and carrying amount of our consolidated debt obligations was $33.85 billion and $32.93 billion, respectively. The fair value of our consolidated debt obligations is a Level 2 valuation based on the observable inputs used for similar liabilities.\nWe have commodity derivatives and interest rate derivatives that are accounted for as assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the fair value of our assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement by using the highest possible \u201clevel\u201d of inputs. Level 1 inputs are observable quotes in an active market for identical assets and liabilities. We consider the valuation of marketable securities and commodity derivatives transacted through a clearing broker with a published price from the appropriate exchange as a Level 1 valuation. Level 2 inputs are inputs observable for similar assets and liabilities. We consider OTC commodity derivatives entered into directly with third parties as a Level 2 valuation since the values of these derivatives are quoted on an exchange for similar transactions. Additionally, we consider our options transacted through our clearing broker as having Level 2 inputs due to the level of activity of these contracts on the exchange in which they trade. We consider the valuation of our interest rate derivatives as Level 2 as the primary input, the LIBOR curve, is based on quotes from an active exchange of Eurodollar futures for the same period as the future interest swap settlements. Level 3 inputs are unobservable. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, no transfers were made between any levels within the fair value hierarchy.\nOptions \u2013 Calls\nRefined Products \u2013 Futures\nEmbedded derivatives in Preferred Units\nETP Senior Notes Redemption\nIn October 2017, ETP redeemed all of the outstanding $500 million aggregate principal amount of ETLP\u2019s 6.50% senior notes due July 2021 and all of the outstanding $700 million aggregate principal amount of ETLP\u2019s 5.50% senior notes due April 2023. The aggregate amount paid to redeem these notes, including call premiums, was approximately $1.23 billion.\nCredit Facilities and Commercial Paper\nThe ETLP Credit Facility allows for borrowings of up to $3.75 billion and matures in November 2019. The indebtedness under the ETLP Credit Facility is unsecured, is not guaranteed by any of the Partnership\u2019s subsidiaries and has equal rights to holders of our current and future unsecured debt. In September 2016, ETLP initiated a commercial paper program under\nWe have certain non-cancelable leases for property and equipment, which require fixed monthly rental payments and expire at various dates through 2034. The table below reflects rental expense under these operating leases included in operating expenses in the accompanying statements of operations, which include contingent rentals, and rental expense recovered through related sublease rental income:\nOur joint venture agreements require that we fund our proportionate share of capital contributions to our unconsolidated affiliates. Such contributions will depend upon our unconsolidated affiliates\u2019 capital requirements, such as for funding capital projects or repayment of long-term obligations.\nWe may, from time to time, be involved in litigation and claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. Natural gas and crude oil are flammable and combustible. Serious personal injury and significant property damage can arise in connection with their transportation, storage or use. In the ordinary course of business, we are sometimes threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits seeking actual and punitive damages for product liability, personal injury and property damage. We maintain liability insurance with insurers in amounts and with coverage and deductibles management believes are reasonable and prudent, and which are generally accepted in the industry. However, there can be no assurance that the levels of insurance protection currently in effect will continue to be available at reasonable prices or that such levels will remain adequate to protect us from material expenses related to product liability, personal injury or property damage in the future.\nOn July 25, 2016, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (\u201cUSACE\u201d) issued permits to Dakota Access consistent with environmental and historic preservation statutes for the pipeline to make two crossings of the Missouri River in North Dakota, including a crossing of the Missouri River at Lake Oahe. After significant delay, the USACE also issued easements to allow the pipeline to cross land owned by the USACE adjacent to the Missouri River in two locations. Also in July, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe (\u201cSRST\u201d) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against the USACE that challenged the legality of the permits issued for the construction of the Dakota Access pipeline across those waterways and claimed violations of the National Historic Preservation Act (\u201cNHPA\u201d). The SRST also sought a preliminary injunction to rescind the USACE permits while the case is pending. Dakota Access intervened in the case. The SRST soon added a request for an emergency TRO to stop construction on the pipeline project. On September 9, 2016, the Court denied SRST\u2019s motion for a preliminary injunction, rendering the temporary restraining order (\u201cTRO\u201d) request moot.\nAfter the September 9, 2016 ruling, the Department of the Army, the DOJ, and the Department of the Interior released a joint statement that the USACE would not grant the easement for the land adjacent to Lake Oahe until the Army completed a review to determine whether it was necessary to reconsider the USACE\u2019s decision under various federal statutes relevant to the pipeline approval.\nThe SRST appealed the denial of the preliminary injunction to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and filed an emergency motion in the U.S. District Court for an injunction pending the appeal, which was denied. The D.C. Circuit then denied the SRST\u2019s application for an injunction pending appeal and later dismissed SRST\u2019s appeal of the order denying the preliminary injunction motion. The SRST filed an amended complaint and added claims based on treaties between the tribes and the United States and statutes governing the use of government property.\nIn December 2016, the Department of the Army announced that, although its prior actions complied with the law, it intended to conduct further environmental review of the crossing at Lake Oahe. In February 2017, in response to a presidential memorandum, the Department of the Army decided that no further environmental review was necessary and delivered an easement to Dakota Access allowing the pipeline to cross Lake Oahe. Almost immediately, the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe (\u201cCRST\u201d), which had intervened in the lawsuit in August 2016, moved for a preliminary injunction and TRO to block operation of the pipeline. These motions raised, for the first time, claims based on the religious rights of the Tribe. The district court denied the TRO and preliminary injunction, and the CRST appealed and requested an injunction pending appeal in the district court and the D.C. Circuit. Both courts denied the CRST\u2019s request for an injunction pending appeal. Shortly thereafter, at CRST\u2019s request, the D.C. Circuit dismissed CRST\u2019s appeal.\nThe SRST and the CRST amended their complaints to incorporate religious freedom and other claims. In addition, the Oglala and Yankton Sioux tribes have filed related lawsuits to prevent construction of the Dakota Access pipeline project. These lawsuits have been consolidated into the action initiated by the SRST. Several individual members of the Tribes have also intervened in the lawsuit asserting claims that overlap with those brought by the four tribes.\nOn June 14, 2017, the Court ruled on SRST\u2019s and CRST\u2019s motions for partial summary judgment and the USACE\u2019s cross-motions for partial summary judgment. The Court rejected the majority of the Tribes\u2019 assertions and granted summary judgment on most claims in favor of the USACE and Dakota Access. In particular, the Court concluded that the USACE had not violated any trust duties owed to the Tribes and had generally complied with its obligations under the Clean Water Act, the Rivers and Harbors Act, the Mineral Leasing Act, the National Environmental Policy Act (\u201cNEPA\u201d) and other related statutes; however, the Court remanded to the USACE three discrete issues for further analysis and explanation of its prior determination under certain of these statutes. The Court ordered briefing to determine whether the pipeline should remain in operation during the pendency of the USACE\u2019s review process or whether to vacate the existing permits. The USACE and Dakota Access opposed any shutdown of operations of the pipeline during this review process. On October 11, 2017, the Court issued an order allowing the pipeline to remain in operation during the pendency of the USACE\u2019s review process. In early October 2017, USACE advised the Court that it expects to complete this additional work by April 2018. The Court has stayed consideration of any other claims until it fully resolves the remaining issues relating to its remand order.\nWhile we believe that the pending lawsuits are unlikely to block operation of the pipeline, we cannot assure this outcome. We cannot determine when or how these lawsuits will be resolved or the impact they may have on the Dakota Access project.\nMont Belvieu Incident\nOn June 26, 2016, a hydrocarbon storage well located on another operator\u2019s facility adjacent to Lone Star NGL Mont Belvieu\u2019s (\u201cLone Star\u201d) facilities in Mont Belvieu, Texas experienced an over-pressurization resulting in a subsurface release. The subsurface release caused a fire at Lone Star\u2019s South Terminal (CMB) and damage to Lone Star\u2019s storage well operations at its South and North Terminals. Normal operations have resumed at the facilities with the exception of one of Lone Star\u2019s storage wells. Lone Star is still quantifying the extent of its incurred and ongoing damages and has or will be seeking reimbursement for these losses.\nSunoco, Inc. and/or Sunoco, Inc. (R&M), along with other refiners, manufacturers and sellers of gasoline, are defendants in lawsuits alleging MTBE contamination of groundwater. The plaintiffs, typically governmental authorities, assert product liability claims and additional claims including nuisance, trespass, negligence, violation of environmental laws, and/or deceptive business practices. The plaintiffs seek to recover compensatory damages, and in some cases also seek natural resource damages, injunctive relief, punitive damages, and attorneys\u2019 fees.\nAs of September 30, 2017, Sunoco, Inc. is a defendant in six cases, including cases initiated by the States of New Jersey, Vermont, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and two others by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico with the more recent Puerto Rico action being a companion case alleging damages for additional sites beyond those at issue in the initial Puerto Rico action. Four of these cases are venued in a multidistrict litigation proceeding in a New York federal court.\nSunoco, Inc. and Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) have reached a settlement with the State of New Jersey. The court approved the Judicial Consent Order on October 10, 2017.\nIt is reasonably possible that a loss may be realized in the remaining cases; however, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued. An adverse determination with respect to one or more of the MTBE cases could have a significant impact on results of operations during the period in which any such adverse determination occurs, but such an adverse determination likely would not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership\u2019s consolidated financial position.\nRegency Merger Litigation\nFollowing the January 26, 2015 announcement of the Regency-ETP merger (the \u201cRegency Merger\u201d), purported Regency unitholders filed lawsuits in state and federal courts in Dallas and Delaware asserting claims relating to the Regency Merger. All but one Regency Merger-related lawsuits have been dismissed. On June 10, 2015, Adrian Dieckman (\u201cDieckman\u201d), a purported Regency unitholder, filed a class action complaint, Dieckman v. Regency GP LP, et al., C.A. No. 11130-CB, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the \u201cRegency Merger Litigation\u201d), on behalf of Regency\u2019s common unitholders against Regency GP, LP; Regency GP LLC; ETE, ETP, ETP GP, and the members of Regency\u2019s board of directors (the \u201cRegency Litigation Defendants\u201d).\nThe Regency Merger litigation alleges that the Regency Merger breached the Regency partnership agreement because Regency\u2019s conflicts committee was not properly formed, and the Regency Merger was not approved in good faith. On March 29, 2016, the Delaware Court of Chancery granted defendants\u2019 motion to dismiss the lawsuit in its entirety. Dieckman appealed. On January 20, 2017, the Delaware Supreme Court reversed the judgment of the Court of Chancery. On May 5, 2017, Plaintiff filed an Amended Verified Class Action Complaint. The Regency Merger Litigation Defendants then filed Motions to Dismiss the Amended Complaint and a Motion to Stay Discovery on May 19, 2017. A hearing on these motions is currently set for January 9, 2018.\nThe Regency Merger Litigation Defendants cannot predict the outcome of the Regency Merger Litigation or any lawsuits that might be filed subsequent to the date of this filing; nor can the Regency Merger Litigation Defendants predict the amount of time and expense that will be required to resolve the Regency Merger Litigation. The Regency Litigation Defendants believe the Regency Merger Litigation is without merit and intend to vigorously defend against it and any others that may be filed in connection with the Regency Merger.\nEnterprise Products Partners, L.P. and Enterprise Products Operating LLC Litigation\nOn January 27, 2014, a trial commenced between ETLP against Enterprise Products Partners, L.P. and Enterprise Products Operating LLC (collectively, \u201cEnterprise\u201d) and Enbridge (US) Inc. Trial resulted in a verdict in favor of ETLP against Enterprise that consisted of $319 million in compensatory damages and $595 million in disgorgement to ETLP. The jury also found that ETLP owed Enterprise approximately $1 million under a reimbursement agreement. On July 29, 2014, the trial court entered a final judgment in favor of ETLP and awarded ETLP $536 million, consisting of compensatory damages, disgorgement, and pre-judgment interest. The trial court also ordered that ETP shall be entitled to recover post-judgment interest and costs of court and that Enterprise is not entitled to any net recovery on its counterclaims. Enterprise filed a notice of appeal with the Court of Appeals. On July 18, 2017, the Court of Appeals issued its opinion and reversed the trial court\u2019s judgment. ETP\u2019s motion for rehearing to the Court of Appeals was denied. ETP intends to file a petition for review with the Texas Supreme Court.\nSunoco Logistics Merger Litigation\nSeven purported Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. common unitholders (the \u201cETP Unitholder Plaintiffs\u201d) separately filed seven putative unitholder class action lawsuits against ETP, ETP GP, ETP LLC, the members of the ETP Board, and ETE (the \u201cETP-SXL Defendants\u201d) in connection with the announcement of the Sunoco Logistics Merger. Two of these lawsuits have been voluntarily dismissed. The five remaining lawsuits have been consolidated as In re Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. Shareholder Litig., C.A. No. 1:17-cv-00044-CCC, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the \u201cSunoco Logistics Merger Litigation\u201d).\nThe ETP Unitholder Plaintiffs allege causes of action challenging the merger and the proxy statement/prospectus filed in connection with the Sunoco Logistics Merger (the \u201cETP-SXL Merger Proxy\u201d).\nThe ETP Unitholder Plaintiffs seek rescission of the Sunoco Logistics Merger or rescissory damages for ETP unitholders, as well as an award of costs and attorneys\u2019 fees.\nThe ETP-SXL Defendants cannot predict the outcome of the Sunoco Logistics Merger Litigation or any lawsuits that might be filed subsequent to the date of this filing, nor can the ETP-SXL Defendants predict the amount of time and expense that will be required to resolve the Sunoco Logistics Merger Litigation. The ETP-SXL Defendants believe the Sunoco Logistics Merger Litigation is without merit and intend to defend vigorously against it and any other actions challenging the Sunoco Logistics Merger.\nOther Litigation and Contingencies\nWe or our subsidiaries are a party to various legal proceedings and/or regulatory proceedings incidental to our businesses. For each of these matters, we evaluate the merits of the case, our exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies, the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and the availability of insurance coverage. If we determine that an unfavorable outcome of a particular matter is probable and can be estimated, we accrue the contingent obligation, as well as any expected insurance recoverable amounts related to the contingency. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accruals of approximately $66 million and $77 million, respectively, were reflected on our consolidated balance sheets related to these contingent obligations. As new information becomes available, our estimates may change. The impact of these changes may have a significant effect on our results of operations in a single period.\nThe outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and there can be no assurance that the outcome of a particular matter will not result in the payment of amounts that have not been accrued for the matter. Furthermore, we may revise accrual\nof Violation (\u201cNOV\u201d)/ FOV to TRC alleging Clean Air Act violations. To date, EPA has not issued an FOV or NOV/FOV to Sunoco, Inc. directly but some of EPA\u2019s claims relate to the time period that Sunoco, Inc. operated the refinery. Specifically, EPA has claimed that the refinery flares were not operated in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practice for minimizing emissions and/or in conformance with their design, and that Sunoco, Inc. submitted semi-annual compliance reports in 2010 and 2011 to the EPA that failed to include all of the information required by the regulations. EPA has proposed penalties in excess of $200,000 to resolve the allegations and discussions continue between the parties. The timing or outcome of this matter cannot be reasonably determined at this time, however, we do not expect there to be a material impact to our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.\nOur operations are also subject to the requirements of OSHA, and comparable state laws that regulate the protection of the health and safety of employees. In addition, OSHA\u2019s hazardous communication standard requires that information be maintained about hazardous materials used or produced in our operations and that this information be provided to employees, state and local government authorities and citizens. We believe that our past costs for OSHA required activities, including general industry standards, record keeping requirements, and monitoring of occupational exposure to regulated substances have not had a material adverse effect on our results of operations but there is no assurance that such costs will not be material in the future.\nWe are exposed to market risks related to the volatility of commodity prices. To manage the impact of volatility from these prices, we utilize various exchange-traded and OTC commodity financial instrument contracts. These contracts consist primarily of futures, swaps and options and are recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets.\nWe use futures and basis swaps, designated as fair value hedges, to hedge our natural gas inventory stored in our Bammel storage facility. At hedge inception, we lock in a margin by purchasing gas in the spot market or off peak season and entering into a financial contract. Changes in the spreads between the forward natural gas prices and the physical inventory spot price result in unrealized gains or losses until the underlying physical gas is withdrawn and the related designated derivatives are settled. Once the gas is withdrawn and the designated derivatives are settled, the previously unrealized gains or losses associated with these positions are realized.\nWe use futures, swaps and options to hedge the sales price of natural gas we retain for fees in our intrastate transportation and storage segment and operational gas sales on our interstate transportation and storage segment. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.\nWe use NGL and crude derivative swap contracts to hedge forecasted sales of NGL and condensate equity volumes we retain for fees in our midstream segment whereby our subsidiaries generally gather and process natural gas on behalf of producers, sell the resulting residue gas and NGL volumes at market prices and remit to producers an agreed upon percentage of the proceeds based on an index price for the residue gas and NGL. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.\nWe use derivatives in our liquids transportation and services segment to manage our storage facilities and the purchase and sale of purity NGL. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.\nWe utilize swaps, futures and other derivative instruments to mitigate the risk associated with market movements in the price of refined products and NGLs. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.\nWe use financial commodity derivatives to take advantage of market opportunities in our trading activities which complement our transportation and storage segment\u2019s operations and are netted in cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of operations. We also have trading and marketing activities related to power and natural gas in our all other segment which are also netted in cost of products sold. As a result of our trading activities and the use of derivative financial instruments in our transportation and storage segment, the degree of earnings volatility that can occur may be significant, favorably or unfavorably, from period to period. We attempt to manage this volatility through the use of daily position and profit and loss reports provided to our risk oversight committee, which includes members of senior management, and the limits and authorizations set forth in our commodity risk management policy.\nThe following table details our outstanding commodity-related derivatives:\nNotional Volume\nMark-to-Market Derivatives\nNatural Gas (MMBtu):\nBasis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX(1)\nPower (Megawatt):\nCrude (Bbls) \u2013 Futures\n(Non-Trading)\nForward Physical Contracts\nNatural Gas Liquid (Bbls) \u2013 Forwards/Swaps\nRefined Products (Bbls) \u2013 Futures\nFair Value Hedging Derivatives\nHedged Item \u2013 Inventory\nIncludes aggregate amounts for open positions related to Houston Ship Channel, Waha Hub, NGPL TexOk, West Louisiana Zone and Henry Hub locations.\nWe are exposed to market risk for changes in interest rates. To maintain a cost effective capital structure, we borrow funds using a mix of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt. We also manage our interest rate exposure by utilizing interest rate swaps to achieve a desired mix of fixed and variable rate debt. We also utilize forward starting interest rate swaps to lock in the rate on a portion of our anticipated debt issuances.\nThe following table summarizes our interest rate swaps outstanding, none of which were designated as hedges for accounting purposes:\nNotional Amount Outstanding\nForward-starting to pay a fixed rate of 3.90% and receive a floating rate\nPay a floating rate based on a 3-month LIBOR and receive a fixed rate of 1.53%\nFloating rates are based on 3-month LIBOR.\nRepresents the effective date. These forward-starting swaps have terms of 30 years with a mandatory termination date the same as the effective date.\nCredit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty may default on its contractual obligations resulting in a loss to the Partnership. Credit policies have been approved and implemented to govern the Partnership\u2019s portfolio of counterparties with the objective of mitigating credit losses. These policies establish guidelines, controls and limits to manage credit risk within approved tolerances by mandating an appropriate evaluation of the financial condition of existing and potential counterparties, monitoring agency credit ratings, and by implementing credit practices that limit exposure according to the risk profiles of the counterparties. Furthermore, the Partnership may, at times, require collateral under certain circumstances to mitigate credit risk as necessary. The Partnership also uses industry standard commercial agreements which allow for the netting of exposures associated with transactions executed under a single commercial agreement. Additionally, we utilize master netting agreements to offset credit exposure across multiple commercial agreements with a single counterparty or affiliated group of counterparties.\nThe Partnership\u2019s counterparties consist of a diverse portfolio of customers across the energy industry, including petrochemical companies, commercial and industrials, oil and gas producers, municipalities, gas and electric utilities, midstream companies and independent power generators. Our overall exposure may be affected positively or negatively by macroeconomic or regulatory changes that impact our counterparties to one extent or another. Currently, management does not anticipate a material adverse effect in our financial position or results of operations as a consequence of counterparty non-performance.\nThe Partnership has maintenance margin deposits with certain counterparties in the OTC market, primarily independent system operators, and with clearing brokers. Payments on margin deposits are required when the value of a derivative exceeds our pre-established credit limit with the counterparty. Margin deposits are returned to us on or about the settlement date for non-exchange traded derivatives, and we exchange margin calls on a daily basis for exchange traded transactions. Since the margin calls are made daily with the exchange brokers, the fair value of the financial derivative instruments are deemed current and netted in deposits paid to vendors within other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.\nFor financial instruments, failure of a counterparty to perform on a contract could result in our inability to realize amounts that have been recorded on our consolidated balance sheets and recognized in net income or other comprehensive income.\nThe following table provides a summary of our derivative assets and liabilities:\nCommodity derivatives (margin deposits)\nThe following table presents the fair value of our recognized derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis and amounts offset on the consolidated balance sheets that are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar arrangements:\nDerivatives without offsetting agreements\nDerivative assets (liabilities)\nDerivatives in offsetting agreements:\nBroker cleared derivative contracts\nTotal gross derivatives\nOffsetting agreements:\nCounterparty netting\nPayments on margin deposit\nTotal net derivatives\nWe disclose the non-exchange traded financial derivative instruments as price risk management assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value with amounts classified as either current or long-term depending on the anticipated settlement date.\nThe following tables summarize the amounts recognized with respect to our derivative financial instruments:\nLocation of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivatives\nAmount of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in Income Representing Hedge Ineffectiveness and Amount Excluded from the Assessment of Effectiveness\nDerivatives in fair value hedging relationships (including hedged item):\nAmount of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivatives\nCommodity derivatives \u2013 Trading\nCommodity derivatives \u2013 Non-trading\nIn June 2017, the Partnership acquired all of the publicly held PennTex common units through a tender offer and exercise of a limited call right, as further discussed in Note 9.\nWe previously had agreements with ETE to provide services on its behalf and on behalf of other subsidiaries of ETE, which included the reimbursement of various operating and general and administrative expenses incurred by us on behalf of ETE and its subsidiaries. These agreements expired in 2016.\nThe Partnership also has related party transactions with several of its equity method investees. In addition to commercial transactions, these transactions include the provision of certain management services and leases of certain assets.\nThe following table summarizes the affiliate revenues on our consolidated statements of operations:\nAffiliated revenues\nThe following table summarizes the related company balances on our consolidated balance sheets:\nAccounts receivable from related companies:\nTotal accounts receivable from related companies:\nAccounts payable to related companies:",

        "raw_content": "Posts tagged Current Events\nCatholics Will Not Comply With New Healthcare Law\nToday we intersect with current events. There is an interesting development with regard to Obamacare (the new national healthcare law coming into effect little by little over the next two years) and religion.\n>Specifically, healthcare law mandates that employers provide coverage for their employees that incudes coverage for contraception and abortions.\nAs you can imagine, some view this as a violation of religious conscience and, therefore, practice. As such, it is a violation of the First Amendment\u2013you know, the whole separation of church and state. The government is supposed to be barred Constitutionally from dictating how we may worship, right?\nThe first to take a stand? Catholics. And we should stand with them.\nWhile the requirement doesn\u2019t apply to houses of worship, it will force Catholic colleges, hospitals and other Christian groups to provide these drugs despite their faith-based opposition to them.\nSo Catholic leaders began their stand this weekend. Catholic churches across America read a letter to congregants that perfectly summarized the church\u2019s stance against the coming federal requirements. It is posted below. It will be interesting to see how this develops.\n>We need to bring attention to this issue and stand with them as people of faith.\nI write to you concerning an alarming and serious matter that negatively impacts the Church in the United States directly, and that strikes at the fundamental right to religious liberty for all citizens of any faith. The federal government, which claims to be \u201cof, by, and for the people,\u201d has just been dealt a heavy blow to almost a quarter of those people \u2014 the Catholic population \u2014 and to the millions more who are served by the Catholic faithful.\nThe U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced last week that almost all employers,\nincluding Catholic employers, will be forced to offer their employees\u2019 health coverage that includes sterilization, abortion-inducing drugs, and contraception. Almost all health insurers will be forced to include those \u201cservices\u201d in the health policies they write. And almost all individuals will be forced to buy that coverage as a part of their policies.\nIn so ruling, the Obama Administration has cast aside the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, denying to Catholics our Nation\u2019s first and most fundamental freedom, that of religious liberty. And as a result, unless the rule is overturned, we Catholics will be compelled to either violate our consciences, or to drop health coverage for our employees (and suffer the penalties for doing so). The Obama Administration\u2019s sole concession was to give our institutions one year to comply.\nWe cannot\u2014we will not\u2014comply with this unjust law. People of faith cannot be made second class citizens. We are already joined by our brothers and sisters of all faiths and many others of good will in this important effort to regain our religious freedom. Our parents and grandparents did not come to these shores to help build America\u2019s cities and towns, its infrastructure and institutions, its enterprise and culture,\nonly to have their posterity stripped of their God given rights. In generations past, the Church has always been able to count on the faithful to stand up and protect her sacred rights and duties. I hope and trust she can count on this generation of Catholics to do the same. Our children and grandchildren deserve nothing less.\nAnd therefore, I would ask of you two things. First, as a community of faith we must commit ourselves to prayer and fasting that wisdom and justice may prevail, and religious liberty may be restored. Without God, we can do nothing; with God, nothing is impossible. Second, I would also recommend visiting www.usccb.org/conscience,to learn more about this severe assault on religious liberty, and how to contact Congress in support of legislation that would reverse the Obama Administration\u2019s decision.\n+Alexander K.

Here\u2019s a golden oldie that seems to apply perfectly to our political climate today.\nThis is a clip from the old show All In The Family starring Corral O\u2019Connor. He played the legendary role Archie Bunker. My dad used to love this show and I can remember watching it as a kid. Looking back, it was hilarious. Archie Bunker is known for being a bigot. But there were also nuggets\u2013like this commentary on politics.\nDebt Ceiling Explanation For Dummies\nI usually like to post something lighthearted going into the weekend. Not this time. This is kind of important.\nI don\u2019t know anything about this Congressman, but he does a bang-up job of explaining the national debt and debt ceiling problem in a way that is understandable. Definitely worth watching in order to understand current events surrounding this issue.\nHave a great weekend, if you can after watching this.",

        "raw_content": "A PWC report suggests that by 2020, half of the world\u2019s workforce will comprise millennials. A huge number of these millennials will go on to occupy leadership positions, but despite their entering into leadership positions at an accelerated rate, the 2016 Deloitte Millennial Survey shows an overall poor worker satisfaction with over 60% stating that leadership positions are not fully developed.\nThe aim of this mini-series is to address the meaningful role that millennials in the workplace can play as innovators, decision-makers and project leads. The series also aims to encourage organizations to adapt their leadership approach in order to include millennials, and also incorporate digital interventions to make their managerial systems more accessible for collaboration.\n\u201cMillennials intend to change the way we approach work for the better and they intend to take this philosophy into their leadership,\u201d says Millennial & Gen Z expert Ashira Prossack.\nProssack is one of many experts who is carefully studying the ways in which millennials are changing the way the workforce views leadership. This generation is not afraid to lead from the front! According to a recent survey by Virtuali and Workplace Trends (USA), a whopping 91% of millennials showed interest in leadership roles. Half of these respondents are confident of their strong leadership skills in relationship building and communication. However, there seems to be a lack of confidence to take on these leadership roles due to a shortfall of industry experience and technical skills knowledge sharing.\nThe millennials who are reaching management positions are doing so without adequate mentorship or training. This will no doubt set them up for failure. In many organizations, there is very little time to prepare millennials for their leadership roles and understand the expectations of the new role. According to Harvard Business Review, up to 40% of millennials in leadership positions fail in their new posts. This is due to these two main reasons: the lack of people management skills within a team set-up and inadequate training from the organization.\nThe JvR Africa Group suggests employers should look into creating a development plan that would help outline how new leaders would be supported by organizations. This development plan would be set up to assist new leaders to deliver the key requirements within their role. This development plan can be presented in different formats such as enrolment to formal courses (upskill), mentorship or personal coaching, and job rotations to other parts of the organization. This would be helpful to millennials as this directly aligns with their need to remain engaged with management and gaining more insight with quarterly feedback sessions.\n\u201cCompanies are not mindful enough to ensure that people, especially given the number of millennials in the workforce, are equipped for the roles they are chosen for,\u201d says Dr Renate Scherrer, Managing Director of JvR Consulting.\nNot only will this plan create more confident leaders, but it would require accountability from both the organization and millennials to fulfil all their requirements and measure the impact of the development plan on the delivered outcomes within the leadership role. This would be in the form of regular assessments, feedback and progress reports.\nMillennials are showing organizations that leadership can be more inclusive and more impactful by adopting a human-centred approach. Despite their reputation of not being traditionally loyal to a single employer, millennials are working towards making an impact and transforming their environments and disrupting the status quo, and it is up to organisations to meet them halfway.\nWriter: Khanya Bonani, Intern",

With the help of these models we may monitor the soil- and plant-related processes of the simulated system as they evolve according to the atmospheric and environmental conditions. Crop models could be successfully applied in the following areas: (1) Education: by promoting the system-oriented thinking a comprehensive overview of the interrelations of the soil-plant system as well as of the environmental protection related aspects of the human activities could be presented. (2) Research: The results of observations as well as of experiments could be extrapolated in time and space, thus, for example, the possible effects of the global climate change could be estimated. (3) Practice: Model calculations could be used in intelligent irrigation control and decision supporting systems as well as for providing scientific background for policy makers. The most spectacular feature of the 4Mx crop model is that its graphical user interface enables the user to alter not only the parameters of the model but the function types of its governing equations as well. The applicability of the 4Mx model is presented via several case-studies.",

        "raw_content": "Reconsidering my Stance on Mornings\nI\u2019ve decided to start walking to school. My apartment is so close to campus that it seems silly not to \u2013 and the weather has been so mild and beautiful lately that I can hardly resist doing it! It\u2019s a little less than a mile so it only takes me about twenty minutes with waiting to cross the busy streets.\nI love my walks to school. Half of it is busy streets and the other half is nice and shaded and pretty. There\u2019s a creek that runs right in front of the campus and my favorite view is standing on the bridge looking to downtown Kansas City.\nI always feel so good after walking home from school. I hope me now walking about two miles a day compensates for the extra cookies I\u2019ve been eating for lunch.\nMornings are usually so hectic and crazy for me. Normally I\u2019m running late: I hit the snooze button too many times, I can\u2019t figure out what to wear, I forgot something and had to turn back, I took too long eating breakfast. But so far this semester I\u2019ve been really good at waking up on time and managing my time in the morning. I think it\u2019s because I woke up every day over the summer at 6:00am so waking up at 7:30am is now normal. How bizarre.\nIf I have slept until about 10:00am now, I feel guilty. -_- I normally can\u2019t sleep that late anymore because of my sleep schedule, but I feel like I\u2019ve just wasted a good chunk of my day by not making the most of my morning.\nI make my bed every morning now: seeing my sheets all mussed and my pillows strewn across the room drives me crazy! I used to not care a bit; my logic used to be that it was silly to make the bed up when I was only going to mess it up later at night when I went to bed. Now, however, a neat bed implies a neat morning and a neat day ahead of me!\nHow have I missed the glory of mornings up until now?\nSeptember has been a very mellow and peaceful month for me. My classes are picking up and I\u2019ve started working at the theater again, but overall it has been very relaxing. I have become very lazy! The closer fall becomes, the more that I just want to roll in a pile of leaves and eat caramel apples. Homework? Tests? Psh, what are these trivial things against the tide of the seasons.\n4 thoughts on \u201cReconsidering my Stance on Mornings\u201d\nThat\u2019s a gorgeous view! And 2 miles is such a perfect distance for a light relaxing walk \u2013 it\u2019s great that you\u2019re embracing mornings! I also used to be one of those people that never made my bed (because what\u2019s the point if you sleep in it again?) but I find it\u2019s great way to put your mind into a more productive/organised mode ready for the day.\n(Hi, I\u2019m Mary \u2013 nice to meet you! :))\nThat\u2019s great that you\u2019re able to walk to school That looks like a really nice view and a great way to start the morning! I wish my work was walking or biking distance, but I have to drive every day.\nI\u2019m so not a morning person. 7:30am is so early for me! I think that\u2019s awesome that you\u2019ve been able to manage your time in the mornings. That sets the tone for the rest of the day! I\u2019m glad things have been relaxing so far!\nThat\u2019s awesome that you\u2019re walking to and from school. My doctor considers it a form of exercising. I can\u2019t believe that you\u2019re finally on your own. It must be exciting to not have to share anything!? To be honest, I miss my own apartment. When I wanted to move, I didn\u2019t miss it then, but I miss it now. I miss setting my own rules, not having to share anything, not having to worry about when the money will be due to pay the rent etc. It was nice, until rude people moved in underneath me. I mean, they weren\u2019t rude, it was just their hip hop music/their bass music that bothered me. I couldn\u2019t hear my t.v. and I\u2019ve confronted them about it, but things just got a little out of hand when the landlady dropped my name to them. *Shakes head*. That apartment complex was something else though. I miss my apartment, but not the people (except for a few).\nI\u2019m glad you\u2019re loving your new apartment/studio, and are able to walk to school. I\u2019m also glad that you still have your job at the theater, so it looks as though life is really blessing you as of late. Congratulations on your engagement too! I\u2019m actually in school myself as a full-time student and I\u2019m loving it except the only assignments I have to do is reading (all semester).\nI used to be a morning person. Up at 6am, watching the breakfast news and getting anything I forgot to go the night before done. Now I\u2019m lucky if I make it out of bed before 10am and like you said, it feels like such a waste! I can\u2019t do much about it, because it\u2019s a side effect of my chronic illnesses, but I still consider myself a morning person!\nAs for walking to school, YES! I agree. It\u2019s awesome. I live a 20 minute walk to my uni\u2019s campus too, but it\u2019s all suburban for me.",

The goal was to document memories about the founding of HCF and, at the same time, record first-hand accounts of life in Charleston in the early 20th century as well as local preservation efforts during that period. More recently, HCF\u2019s efforts have expanded to include interviews with residents of specific neighborhoods who speak about neighborhood history and their experiences with neighborhood changes over time; owners of historic homes who purchased their home through one of HCF\u2019s revolving fund programs; and Charleston craftspeople whose restoration work has contributed to Charleston\u2019s preservation legacy.\nMore oral histories will be added as they become available.",

        "raw_content": "A Conversation on Contemporary China\nPublished: November 24, 2008Posted in: Ear Me OutTags: Events, Next Legends, Profiles, Show \u2018n Tell\nI had the pleasure of seeing two unconventional speakers give a lecture on China yesterday at the Berkeley Art Museum Theater. And I use the word unconventional, because they are white American men who have dedicated themselves to studying particular aspects of traditional Chinese life. They spoke at length about misconceptions on either topic; the lack of research in each respective feild; a bit about the books they wrote on the topics; and fostered a nice debate after their presentations. The first speaker, Michael Meyer, wrote a book entitled The Last Days of Old Beijing. During his discussion he detailed his life in one of Beijing's oldest hutongs (mazes of lanes and courtyards bordered by single-story houses) as a teacher and citizen. He showed photographs of his students, neighbors, and local families that he followed in the book and discussed how modern conveniences (and Walmart) were affecting the area; as China significantly reconstructs itself by demolishing the old houses and installing brand new suburbs and roads in their place. Next up in the series was David Spindler who, along with photographer Jonathan Ball, is documenting the Great Wall of China. He spent time dispelling myths about the Great Wall (such as the untrue \"fact\" that it can be seen from space); defining what actually makes a great wall (1000m, built for defense, and non-circular); and regaling us with stories from his 800+ days of hiking the local sections. In addition, he presented us with photographs from his book which showed modern-day photos taken at the exact time and day of ancient battles between the Mongols and the Chinese at various places along the wall. Aside from the fascinating wealth of information they provided, it was strange to hear that the subjects they were both researching didn't have a lot of true research done. But as China modernizes and grows it's good that people like Mr. Meyer and Mr. Spindler are out there in the field making a mark on history! --- For more about Micheal Meyer, visit his website (and especially watch the video). For more about David Spindler, read this blog by a fellow American living in China. And if you are going to be in the Bay Area sometime in the near future, you would be well to visit the U.C. Berkeley Art Museum's exhibit entitled Mahjong: Contemporary Chinese Art, which runs through January 4, 2009.\nPHOTOGRAPHY \u00bb A Thousand Faces of Opinion",

        "raw_content": "Parenting without punishment? Yes, there IS another way! - By Elizabeth Richards\nWith her PEAK Parenting course, Sarah MacLaughlin, LSW aims to change the deeply entrenched belief that parenting needs to include bribes, threats, and punishment in order to be effective. Her six-month course offers information and support through a new approach that emphasizes understanding, empathy and connection.\nMacLaughlin, a 10-year resident of Windham, is a full time social worker as well as author and parent educator. After her book, \u201cWhat Not to Say: Tools for Talking with Young Children,\u201d was published in 2010, she was invited to do speaking engagements, and schools began asking for six week courses for parents. Many times, she said, a course would end leaving participants wanting more. Realizing that online she could reach people in many ways \u2013 through direct email, Facebook, and videos \u2013 she put it all together to create PEAK Parenting, which uses all of those tools. \u201cIt\u2019s about getting information and support into people\u2019s hands,\u201d she said. The support piece is essential, she added. \u201cIt\u2019s not enough to get it about the brain. In the moment where you\u2019re triggered, it\u2019s just really helpful to have that connection,\u201d she said.\nThe main goal of the course is to help parents see that there\u2019s another way, and then helping them through the challenges of putting this new information into action. She has found that parents appreciate gaining basic child development knowledge, as well as learning a different perspective.\nWhen it comes to information, the first step is for parents to understand brain development and child development, starting with how the brain develops from the bottom up, she said. \u201cFrom the oldest parts of our brain that we share with reptiles and mammals, to the lovely human brain that is wonderful when we\u2019re engaged in it, but not something that we always have access to or conscious control over, and what that means.\u201d\nShe adds that it\u2019s also important to realize that how the brain functions affect not only how children develop, but how we relate to them. Traditional parenting often asks children to behave in ways the adults aren\u2019t capable of behaving, she said. \u201cWe want our children to learn self regulation. I define that as being able to stay in charge of your behavior when you\u2019re upset, and most grownups have a really hard time doing that.\u201d\nBrain research shows that the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for the \u201cexecutive functions\u201d of the brain, including impulse control and adapting intense emotions, isn\u2019t fully formed until close to age 25. And at any age it\u2019s easy to slip into a lower brain state. When this happens, one common reaction from parents is to explain away their behavior. \u201cThe tricky piece to watch for is that then we justify our behavior and think that they should be able to pull it together when we can\u2019t,\u201d said MacLaughlin.\nAnother thing that MacLaughlin focuses on is the power of empathy. Children, and all humans, thrive when they have connection. \u201cThe way that we can most easily connect is through our emotional states, and through empathy,\u201d she said. Empathy is feeling with someone rather than feeling sorry for them, she added. \u201cYou really have to be able to have a connection to your own emotional state in order to have empathy.\u201d\nTraditional parenting strategies move children away from being connected to their feelings, because feelings are messy and often inconvenient, MacLaughlin said. But when children are asked to ignore their feelings so things can move along, \u201cWe\u2019re curtailing a really important process,\u201d she said. It\u2019s a new way of thinking to ask how things might go if we make space for the emotions instead of arguing, bribing, threatening or distracting children away from their feelings, she added.\n\u201cThe irony of the typical punishment is that while we want children to learn empathy and feel for someone else, punishment is so self focused. Anybody who is being punished is wallowing in the misery of their own space,\u201d said MacLaughlin. This makes children unable to feel for others, because their own bad feelings are so exacerbated, she said.\nBut MacLaughlin recognizes that giving children the space to feel, and react, and develop at their own rate brings many questions about what to do in the meantime. Throughout the PEAK Parenting course she offers many resources to draw from. \u201cI\u2019ve read all the parenting books so you don\u2019t have to,\u201d she said, and she loves to share the information she has learned. Among her favorite resources are The Whole Brain Child by Daniel J. Siegel, M.D. and Tina Payne Bryson, Ph.D, and Dr. Laura Markham\u2019s book Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids, as well as her resources on www.ahaparenting.com.\nMacLaughlin will launch another course, R.E.S.E.T., in the new year. This course will be a self paced guide, through workbooks and videos, to help parents move toward taking care of nurturing themselves. The next PEAK Parenting course begins March 1st.\nMacLaughlin acknowledged that there is a lot of push back to the parenting approach she teaches. Supporting parents through learning a new perspective and new way of operating is a big challenge, but she is meeting it head on.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab \u201cKingsman: The Secret Service\u201d Movie Review\n\u201cStill Alice\u201d Movie Review \u00bb\nAs a person who has not read any of E.L. James \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d book trilogy, I attended a screening of the new film based on the first of those novels with an open mind and even a bit of curiosity. Knowing this was a book that had sold some 100 million copies world wide and was translated into 52 languages was one thing, but to hear for the past several years numerous women purr at the mere thought of the words they had read on those pages meant there had to be quite a powerful allure here to garner such a widespread positive reaction. Perhaps the most intriguing thought centered around the fact people would often talk about how they really couldn\u2019t picture those pages being realized into a feature film since they were loaded with graphic descriptions of the sex had between the two lead characters. \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d was one of those films whose preproduction was followed with massive interest years before anyone stepped in front of or behind the camera. The reason? Because no actor or filmmaker who valued their future careers would even consider it.\nLooking back on the various notable films that would fall within the same genre as \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d, very few enjoyed a high level of success and nearly all of them forced the actors who took the lead roles to commit virtual career suicide. One that immediately comes to mind is Elizabeth Berkley\u2019s turn in the 1995 film \u201cShowgirls\u201d. The filmmakers were forced to cast unknowns even though it featured the re-teaming of director Paul Verhoeven and screenwriter Joe Eszterhas who had just achieved stardom as the duo behind \u201cBasic Instinct\u201d. If you\u2019ve watched \u201cShowgirls\u201d, then you know about the limits that film pushed within the sexual realm as well as onscreen nudity. Whether one watches pornography or not, there will always be a stigma attached to the adult film industry. Would you want to see your son or daughter on screen participating in sexual acts? I thought not. Actors have to be very careful about the roles they choose and many passed on \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d, likely after reading the script and saying \u201cI have to do what?\u201d. I wonder how far down the casting list they had to go before they arrived at Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan? Yah, I hadn\u2019t heard of them either.\nNudity and sex aside, the actors who read and passed on the script should\u2019ve been asking \u201cYou really want me to say that with a straight face?\u201d. The fundamental problem with \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d resides with the atrocious screenplay by Kelly Marcel. Now I\u2019m not aware if she was taking dialogue straight from the book or not (word has it E.L. James had a significant on set role, so I would assume the script does contain her book\u2019s dialogue), but the way some of these scenes are written, and consequently acted, are just downright painful to watch. When the story centers mainly on two characters connecting on a level that has to justify what comes next, their initial scenes are crucial to develop a believable chemistry. To this extent, \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d fails in a way I have never seen before, especially for a budding film franchise surrounded by this much hype.\nThe film, directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, tells the story of an \u201cAmerican Psycho\u201d like billionaire business man who lives in Seattle. I make that comparison because if you take away Christian Bale\u2019s serial killer tendencies, you would have Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) who if there was a picture next to the word \u201cboring\u201d in the dictionary, it would be him in black and white with an emotionless look on his face. Christian is a man whose closet looks like a fine men\u2019s store with the walls backlit by soft white light and nearly every item of clothing devoid of any color other than black, gray, and white. Perhaps the film\u2019s title has something to do with the fact he does seem to have a necktie in several different shades of gray. He, of course, lives in a massive penthouse atop a high rise building, complete with a helicopter and about a dozen high end cars for his choosing. He\u2019s a carbon copy card board character who displays zero personality and seems to live the life of a recluse more than that of a billionaire playboy.\nOn the other side, we have the beloved Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson), a college literature student who has been given the task of interviewing Christian Grey for her school newspaper. The fact the interview is in her hands occurs all by chance as her roommate who was responsible to do the interview has a bit of a cold. I know many people who have talked about the book often wondered how exactly these two characters would look in the film version. The filmmakers vision of Anastasia looks as though they were going for the innocent \u201cCinderella\u201d type, yet the result has her looking as frumpy as Jamie Lee Curtis did in the first half of \u201cTrue Lies\u201d. It\u2019s way over the top as she has the look of a model who shops at a second hand store for women over 60. We watch as she unconvincingly bumbles and fumbles her way to the Christian Grey interview and acts as though she is completely intimidated by this stiff in a suit, all while seemingly setting the record for lip chewing previously held by Gina Carano in \u201cHaywire\u201d. This first scene between them is painful to watch. I would describe it as the feeling you might have hearing nails on a chalkboard. The lines these two say is stilted and clunky, rarely making any sense and in no way demonstrating any kind of emotional connection. Unfortunately, this was just the beginning of the end.\nThis implausible story wants us to believe the innocent looking virgin college student would actually consider entering into a written contract to become the \u201csubmissive\u201d to Christian Grey. He apparently has a \u201cplay room\u201d, which Anastasia upon entering it for the first time asks him if this is where he plays Xbox, containing a litany of S & M bondage items and wants her to stay in a separate bedroom four days out of the week and be his personal play toy when ever he commands. All the while he will not sleep in the same room as her at night and she is not permitted to touch him in an affectionate way. Seriously? Could this story line be any more degrading to women? He might as well refer to her as \u201cWhore\u201d in the contract. And what woman would ever agree to such terms? And what kind of a pompous scumbag would ever think he could even ask such a thing of a woman? Even more importantly, why do so many women love the book this film is based on? Am I missing something? Or is this cliched porno meets rags to riches story actually satisfying to some people?\nEven if you buy into the story line, the acting and dialogue between the two leads is terrible. The script calls for Dornan to say lines such as \u201cI don\u2019t make love. I f**k. Hard!\u201d or \u201cI\u2019m fifty shades of f**ked up!\u201d, delivering these quips in a serious deadpan tone. Forget rolling your eyes, I could barely contain my laughter. It\u2019s not that anything in the film is overly offensive. I mean, I\u2019m all for people exploring what ever they want to as long as it doesn\u2019t effect me. The problem is what you see and hear on screen is lame, poorly executed, and just plain stupid. You would probably find better acting and more titillating sex scenes if you watched something late night on Cinemax (even if it\u2019s scrambled!), because \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d seems to be satisfied with descending to that level. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if someday this film finds itself as fodder for \u201cMystery Science Theater 3000\u201d, it\u2019s that bad. When we talk about the degradation of society and what exactly is wrong with this world, I offer this: \u201cFifty Shades of Grey\u201d, a poorly made film about bondage, made over a quarter of a billion dollars in worldwide grosses during its opening weekend, setting all sorts of box office records. Meanwhile, two quality films about people dealing with real tragedy, loss, and important life issues, \u201cStill Alice\u201d starring Julianne Moore, and \u201cCake\u201d starring Jennifer Aniston, have grossed $4.6 million and $1.9 million during their entire theatrical runs respectively. Just food for thought. GRADE: F-",

The first is a visceral thrill ride into the technology and the hell that is the Iraq war. The second is exposure to the political opinions of the filmmakers and the film\u2019s star, Matt Damon. For sure, this will turn some people off, as the opinions are directed squarely at George W. Bush\u2019s administration and the decision making that went into our involvement in Iraq in the first place. Agree or not; however, Green Zone delivers as a solid action film.\nMatt Damon is Chief Warrant Officer Miller and is charged with leading a team tasked with looking for Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq. The film opens during one of these missions and right away I was captured by the technical brilliance Greengrass brings to his films, though I was not surprised (Greengrass\u2019 film credits include The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, and United 93). As effectively as \u201cThe Hurt Locker\u201d before it, Green Zone is very immersive and I felt like I came away with a very real depiction of what it is like on a day to day basis for those serving their country in Iraq.\nAs Chief Miller and his team proceed from location to location they continually come up empty, meaning no WMDs. The film\u2019s plot centers around the source of intelligence used by the U.S. government to find the location of these WMDs and the politics and various players involved within our own government as well as the Iraqi Army. If you follow current events today, then you know what the end result of this film will be. The suspense here is Chief Miller\u2019s quest to find the actual source and determine if the intel being reported to him was ever legitimate.\nIn fine supporting roles Brendan Gleeson (Martin Brown) and Greg Kinnear (Clark Poundstone) show up as government higher ups working against each other in an attempt to save the reputation of the Bush Administration. Chief Miller is, of course, aided by one of them and being derailed by the other. The film\u2019s climax is a top notch action sequence pitting Chief Miller against an elite Special Forces unit in a race to capture (or kill) the intel source. It is during these sequences that Green Zone is highly effective and could be compared to any of the best war sequences from films such as The Hurt Locker or Black Hawk Down.\nDo the filmmakers and Matt Damon grandstand a bit at the end of the film? Yes they do. So the question on whether or not to see Green Zone may start with your own thoughts on the Iraq war. Either way, I feel Green Zone is worthy of a look, but the opening week box office seems to be sending a message to the filmmaking community. Stay away from making films about the Iraq war. Even though The Hurt Locker won Best Picture, it only grossed a paltry $25 million at the box office and Green Zone with its huge budget has only grossed just north of that. For some box office gold, I would suggest Greengrass and Damon team up again, for Bourne 4. GRADE: B",

She said Texas Military Forces officials have been working closely with the governor\u2019s office and attorney general\u2019s office for the past few weeks on the issue.\nThere are five state-supported Guard facilities and 20 federal installations in Texas, Lopez said.\nUnder a Texas state law that took effect Sept. 1, 2003, \u201ca marriage between persons of the same sex or a civil union is contrary to the public policy of this state and is void in this state.\u201d The law also prohibits any right or claim to any legal protection, benefit or responsibility as a result of a same-sex marriage or civil union.\n\u201cIt\u2019s truly outrageous that the state of Texas has decided to play politics with our military families,\u201d said Stephen Peters, the president of American Military Partner Association, in a statement. \u201cGovernor Rick Perry should be ashamed. Our military families are already dealing with enough problems and the last thing they need is more discrimination from the state of Texas.\u201d\nNichols noted that \u201cTXMF remains committed to ensuring its military personnel and their families receive the benefits to which they are entitled. As such, we encourage anyone affected by this issue to enroll for benefits at a federal installation.\u201d\nSame-sex Couples Same-sex Families Military Personnel Military Families Military Benefits Defense Department Policy Texas National Guard",

His hair is more salt than pepper, and he speaks and listens with the measured calmness of a therapist. He recently sat down with The Local to talk about Local Faith Communities and how living in the East Village has informed his work.\nWhy did you start Local Faith Communities?\nThis all started because I\u2019m tired of what goes on in the name of religion \u2014 the hate crimes that are happening in the world because of religion, the wars in the name of religion. Religion seems to be a very easy way to mobilize people for or against something.",

I got distracted. Even brunettes have blond moments.\" She joked. \"Hey,\" cried Amanda and Nick at the same time. Brian snickered. Amanda and Nick each grabbed for a slice of pizza, \"hey,\" accused Nick \"you took the biggest one.\" \"I\u2019m sorry did you want it?\" she asked. He nodded. She licked the top of it and grinned at him, \"still want it.\" He thought for a moment and then grabbed another slice sticking his tongue out at her.\n\"Oh.. that\u2019s mature.\" Brian said. \"Bite me,\" Nick retorted his mouth full of pizza. \"That\u2019s okay, I\u2019ll save that job for someone else.\" He said winking at Amanda. She started choking on her pop and Nick turned bright red and kicked Brian under the table. \"Ouch,\" he yelped, \"hey don\u2019t kick me.\" \"Oh, poor baby,\" Manda soothed playfully. He laid his head on her shoulder and in his best little kid voice said, \"it hurts.\" \"want me to kiss it and make it better?\" He sat up and grinned at her and whispered in her ear, \"maybe later.\" Her face turned bright red and she looked at the ground.\nAfter they finished eating they decided to go out and have some fun. \"I heard there was a carnival out at Cedar Mall,\" Nick suggested. \"Oh, Brian can we go please!!!\" begged Amanda. He thought for moment, \"well I guess so.\" \"Yes,\" she cried, \"I can\u2019t wait to ride the Ferris wheel, I love when you get stopped at the top, you can see everything.\" Brian looked at Nick and immediately knew that Nick hoped they would get stuck at the top too, but his reasoning may have been different then Amanda\u2019s\nAfter they paid the check they all piled back into Brian\u2019s jeep and headed for the carnival. When they pulled up, Amanda and Manda looked at it in awe. \"Look Nick,\" she cried happily, \"the Ferris wheel, oh they have a haunted house, I want to go there.\" Brian was standing next to Manda and suggested that they split up. \"Manda can\u2019t walk very fast because of her ankle, so why don\u2019t you guys go on ahead.\" They agreed, then they decided they would meet back by the carousel in two hours.\nAmanda immediately dragged Nick to the haunted house. \"two please,\" said Nick handing the man some money. \"Nick,\" she said, \"let me pay for my own.\" He looked at her, \"you can get the next one.\" She nodded happily and grabbed his arm and drug him inside. As soon as she stepped in and the door had closed she knew she had made a mistake. She shrunk back against the door not wanting to go any further. Nick looked at her, \"are you scared?\" She nodded vigorously. He held out his hand to her \"Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll protect you.\" She reached out and took his hand and started inside the house.",

        "raw_content": "Consider This Perspective \u2013 Randy Roberts Potts\nPosted on April 10, 2013 by christylwade\nWelcome to another installment of LOVEboldly\u2019s interview series. Previously , Derek Webb (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3), Logan Mehl-Laituri, Tripp York, Wesley Hill, Jen Thweatt-Bates, Peterson Toscano, Jenell Paris, and Alan Chambers (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3) offered their perspectives on a number of issues related to faith and sexuality. Now we are privileged to share an interview with Randy Roberts Potts.\nRandy Roberts Potts has worked with juvenile delinquents on the East Coast, was a social worker in Oklahoma City, spent five years as a middle school English teacher, and is now a freelance writer for several publications including The Washington Post, Box Turtle Bulletin, The Advocate, This Land Press, D Magazine, and others.\nRandy wrote about his coming out experience as the grandson of televangelist Oral Roberts in the recent It Gets Better book and spends his life trying to spread a message of hope to gay youth. He is also a public speaker and has spoken on a gay cruise, for gay pride, in churches, high schools, universities and LGBT centers across the country.\nRandy launched a project called \u201cThe Gay Agenda,\u201d a performance art piece designed for conservative areas across the country. For more information on Randy, you can visit his website.\nFor those who may not know you, you are the grandson of late televangelist Oral Roberts. What was it like growing up as a member of this family? How did it shape your early views of God?\nAs a child I was very passionately religious and a devout holy roller Pentecostal. Sometime in middle school that began to break down as I struggled with my sexuality and other aspects of what my religion taught me.\nHow has your view of God changed since coming to terms with your sexuality?\nComing out hasn\u2019t affected my view of God at all but it has drastically altered my view of religion, especially the one I grew up within. Among Evangelicals, the Bible is used opportunistically as a weapon with which to beat homosexuals and many commit suicide as a result. Even so, I don\u2019t mix up man\u2019s use of religion with my views on God and know that Jesus\u2019 message had nothing to do with this behavior.\nWhat do you think of mixed orientation marriages?\nThey are intensely problematic and unfair on so many levels and I spent 11 years within one. The platonic love that is possible is not enough to ease the natural sexual tension for the two individuals and sex cannot be emotionally healing in such a relationship and therefore a huge divide exists between such couples. I certainly wouldn\u2019t recommend this type of arrangement.\nTell us about your project The Gay Agenda. What sparked this idea? How has it been received?\nThe idea for the gay agenda project came from a dream I had, in which Keaton and I were living in a glass box in Central Park in NYC. I realized it wouldn\u2019t be controversial for two men to keep house in Central Park but it would be on Main Street in small town USA. The reception has been mixed \u2014 we have not found a way to execute the project in a way that is effective \u2014 meaning, finding safe, available locations in which to perform has meant that we have audiences already too friendly. I still think it could be effectively carried out but I don\u2019t feel it has yet lived up to expectations.\nWhat do you wish the straight, evangelical Christian community knew about the LGBTQ community?\nThe main thing I would ask the straight, evangelical Christian community to do is to recognize our humanity, that we are human beings who fall in love and seek to build lives together. Paul in the New Testament says that in Christ there is no gender and, hey, the LGBTQ community gets this, why don\u2019t evangelicals?\nPlease tell us about any current and/or new projects on which you are working?\nNo new projects at the moment; my husband and I are newly married and just bought a house and heavily involved in feathering our nest with our three kiddos in Texas.\nThis entry was posted in Interview Series, LGBT Perspectives and tagged LGBT, Mixed Orientation Marriages, Oral Roberts, Randy Roberts Potts, Religion by christylwade. Bookmark the permalink.\n3 thoughts on \u201cConsider This Perspective \u2013 Randy Roberts Potts\u201d\nAmanda on April 10, 2013 at 6:56 pm said:\nI\u2019d just like to point out the scripture taken out of context here. When Paul said, \u201cthere is neither slave nor free, male nor female, Greek nor Jew for we are all one in Christ Jesus\u201d he was talking about that fact that we are all equal recipients of the gift of salvation & eternal life. NOT validating same sex relationships. My heart hurts for the LGBT community and I wish I had all the answers. I don\u2019t. But I know the actions that the Bible states as wrong. God calls us to love everyone, even our enemies. But the sexual manifestation of intimate love was designed to be performed in the context of marriage between a man and a woman. There is no other way about it.\nThanks for reading and sharing your thoughts Amanda!\nJames Pearman on April 12, 2013 at 4:41 pm said:\nBecause of people like my brother, Randy, our young people from Evangelical backgrounds will have a better way of viewing their theological/preference struggles. Only those of us who have the experience truly understand the pain and suffering inflicted upon us. Many of us didn\u2019t live to embrace the person God created us to be \u2026 and then there are those of us who lived most of our lives hating the God who loved us due to the damage done to us theologically as children. I am thankful for the reconciliation I have found when I walked through the doors of Bishop Yvette Flunder\u2019s City of Refuge. My heart is passion for the youth and I appreciate much what Randy continues to do!",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Features / Fitz: St. Pat\u2019s man behind the lens\nFitz: St. Pat\u2019s man behind the lens\nBob Fitzsimmons was a high school freshman when he started working part time for the Rolla Daily News in 1956.\nHis main job was to set type for the metal plates newspapers used in those days, but he also helped out in the circulation department. One day, when the paper\u2019s photographer abruptly quit, the teenager found himself with a new responsibility. \u201cEd Sowers (the publisher) handed me a camera and said, \u2018Now you\u2019re a photographer, too.\u2019\u201d\nalert(\u201cThis page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.\u201d);\n\u2018codebase\u2019, \u2018http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0\u2019,\n\u2018src\u2019, \u2018slideshow-fitz\u2019,\n\u2018quality\u2019, \u2018high\u2019,\n\u2018pluginspage\u2019, \u2018http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\u2019,\n\u2018align\u2019, \u2018middle\u2019,\n\u2018play\u2019, \u2018true\u2019,\n\u2018loop\u2019, \u2018true\u2019,\n\u2018scale\u2019, \u2018showall\u2019,\n\u2018wmode\u2019, \u2018window\u2019,\n\u2018devicefont\u2019, \u2018false\u2019,\n\u2018id\u2019, \u2018slideshow\u2019,\n\u2018bgcolor\u2019, \u2018#ffffff\u2019,\n\u2018name\u2019, \u2018slideshow-fitz\u2019,\n\u2018menu\u2019, \u2018true\u2019,\n\u2018allowFullScreen\u2019, \u2018false\u2019,\n\u2018allowScriptAccess\u2019,\u2019sameDomain\u2019,\n\u2018movie\u2019, \u2018/flash/slideshow-fitz\u2019,\n\u2018salign\u2019, \u201d,\n\u2018base\u2019, \u2018.\u2019\nMaybe the veteran newspaperman recognized a hidden talent in the young typesetter. It\u2019s more likely that Fitzsimmons happened to be in the right place at the right time. Whether by design or by accident, Fitzsimmons \u2013 or \u201cFitz,\u201d as he is better known \u2013 parlayed that sudden responsibility into a lifelong photography career, and a 45-year avocation as the official photographer for St. Pat and his Court.\nFitzsimmons was still on the newspaper staff in 1960 when he was first assigned to cover St. Pat\u2019s. Soon thereafter, MSM employee Jack Tryon, the St. Pat\u2019s advisor at the time, told Fitzsimmons and RDN news editor/photographer Darrell Bradford that the court could use some help chronicling each year\u2019s events for posterity. Tryon asked the two newsmen to fill that role, and they agreed. (A few years later, the pair left the newspaper to form Bradford and Fitzsimmons Photography in downtown Rolla.) Fitzsimmons took over sole responsibility in the mid-1980s.\n\u201cI wanted to capture kind of a history of it all,\u201d says Fitzsimmons.\nAnd that\u2019s exactly what he did. From 1961 through 2005, Fitzsimmons saved his vacation days to spend them with the court every March. Although he\u2019s known as the \u201cofficial\u201d photographer, there was never any kind of formal agreement between Fitz and the court. \u201cThey just kept coming around every year and saying, \u2018Well, you\u2019re doing it again this year, aren\u2019t you?\u2019 and I said, \u2018Yeah. Why not?\u2019 They always treated me like a king.\u201d\nOr if not a king, at least as one of their own. Fitzsimmons was chosen to become an Honorary Knight of St. Patrick in 1996.\nWherever the court was, Fitz was there, too. In the early days, he snapped black-andwhite photos with \u201can old four-by-five Graflex\u201d large-format camera, then moved in the 1960s, and to digital photography by 2003. He\u2019s photographed the court official poses \u2013 standing with chancellors, local business and community leaders, annual Queen of Love and Beauty fair ladies of the court. He\u2019s also photographed the court in many unofficial \u2013 and embarrassing \u2013 venues and circumstances. He\u2019s captured the pageantry of the knighting and coronation ceremonies, the zaniness of Alice, the \u201cwild and crazy\u201d parties, parades, the arrival of St. Pat and many other occasions. At the end of each year\u2019s celebration, he turned the photos over to that year\u2019s court, so he has no incriminating evidence to share. He did, however, share a few photos from some of the more public events.\nFitzsimmons retired from his service to St. Pat in 2005. \u201cI talked to the guys and told them I can\u2019t hang like I used to,\u201d he says. He turned the responsibilities over to Jasyn Randazzo (better known as \u201cDozzle\u201d), EE/CompE\u201902. But don\u2019t be surprised to see Fitz at the centennial in March.",

(AP Photo/Michael Probst)\nBERLIN (AP) -- Mesut Ozil is quitting Germany's national team following criticism over his decision to pose for a picture with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.\n\u3010Related\u3011Soccer: Defending champion Germany eliminated from World Cup after loss to South Korea\nIn a series of statements posted Sunday on Twitter, the Arsenal star announced his retirement from international football. He attacked the German football federation (DFB), its president, fans and the media, criticizing what he saw as racism and double standards in the treatment of people with Turkish roots.\nCiting anti-Turkish comments from far-right politicians and fans, Ozil said he would \"no longer be playing for Germany at international level whilst I have this feeling of racism and disrespect.\"\nHe added: \"Racism should never, ever be accepted.\"\nThe photo of Erdogan, Ozil and Manchester City's Ilkay Gundogan meeting in London caused an uproar in Germany two months ago.\nAt the time, the head of Germany's soccer federation, Reinhard Grindel, publicly accused the players -- whose families came to Germany from Turkey -- of allowing themselves to be \"exploited\" by Erdogan for political purposes. Some German politicians questioned Ozil and Gundogan's loyalty to Germany and suggested they should be removed from the national squad ahead of the World Cup.\nGundogan distanced himself from the photo, but Ozil refused to comment publicly until Sunday when he published a three-part statement in English which defended his actions and attacked those who have criticized him\n\"The picture we took had no political intentions,\" said Ozil, adding that it \"was about me respecting the highest office of my family's country.\"\nHe also took a swipe at German media who suggested that the 29-year-old midfielder was partly to blame for Germany's shock group-stage exit from the World Cup.\n\"This crosses a personal line that should never be crossed, as newspapers try to turn the nation of Germany against me,\" Ozil said, noting that there had been little criticism of former Germany captain Lothar Matthaeus over a recent meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.\nOzil reserved his sharpest words for Grindel, however, alleging that the federation president had been \"patronizing\" toward the player, who was a key part of Germany's 2014 World Cup-winning team.\n\"I will no longer stand for being a scapegoat for his incompetence and inability to do his job properly,\" Ozil said, claiming that Grindel had made \"unforgivable and unforgettable\" comments about immigrants and Muslims in the past.\nOn Twitter, Ozil said: \"The treatment I have received from the DFB and many others makes me no longer want to wear the German national team shirt.\n\"I feel unwanted and think that what I have achieved since my international debut in 2009 has been forgotten.\"\nWhile Ozil said he had received support from German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and national team coach Joachim Low, he claimed \"in the eyes of Grindel and his supporters, I am German when we win, but I am an immigrant when we lose.\"",

Through good times and bad Libya\u2019s most loyal friend has always been Malta. During the decades of international sanctions and global isolation, it was the Mediterranean island 210 miles (350 km) to the north that provided a lifeline to the African state, supplying just about everything down to such basic items as tinned fish and bars of soap.\nToday, Malta is hoping that its close ties and intimate understanding of its Arab neighbour will ensure that it also benefits from the opening up of Libya\u2019s economy to Western investment and private enterprise. It is presenting itself as the perfect base from which international business with Libya can be conducted. Only a half-hour flight away from Tripoli, its 400,000-strong community shares a common Phoenician ancestry with the Libyans and trading ties between the two have existed for millennia. The Maltese say these links give them an unrivalled understanding of the Libyan mentality and business culture.\nIn recent years the close ties between the island fortress, once a bulwark of Christianity against the invasion attempts of the Muslim Ottoman empire of which Libya was a part, and Colonel Gaddafi\u2019s Islamic Arab republic, have been beyond question.\nWhen Malta obtained its independence from Britain in 1964, the first embassy it opened as a sovereign state was in Tripoli. Then, during its years of radical socialist rule under Dom Mintoff, it shared much political philosophy with Libya, where Gaddafi came to power five years later.\nMalta has received preferential rates from Libya for its oil supplies over many years and \u0096 while the Valletta government respected the UN imposed sanctions \u0096 the local business community unhesitatingly came to Tripoli\u2019s aid by whatever means it could. Today, the Corinthia Bab, the only five-star hotel in Libya, is owned and managed by the Maltese Corinthia Group.\nSaad Elshlmani, head of mission at the embassy of the Libyan People\u2019s Bureau in Malta, agrees that there is a role for Malta to play as Libya returns to the global marketplace. \u00abMalta supported us during a difficult time and sees itself as a bridge between us and Europe,\u00bb he says. \u00abWe can benefit from their links with the EU as they can benefit from our role in the African Union.\u00bb\nThousands of Maltese live and work in Libya and, in spite of the religious differences, there have been many marriages between the two communities. Now, with Libya reforming its economy, privatising its state-run enterprises and seeking inward investment, business opportunities are abundant and Malta is keen to maintain its pivotal role in facilitating connections.\nPhilip Micallef, the chief executive of Malta Enterprise, the government body promoting trade and investment, says that Malta is a good starting point for companies that provide back-office facilities in the oil sector, pharmaceuticals, information technology and other support services such as precision instruments, which are tackling the Libyan market.\nMany Maltese companies already act as agents and distributors for large foreign companies entering the Libyan market. \u00abIt is a question of know-how. Maltese speak the language and know who to contact.\u00bb\nThe Bank of Valletta has long been a prime conduit for trade and investment links between Malta and Libya and was the first foreign bank to open a representative office in Tripoli in 2001.\nJohn Pollacco, the bank\u2019s representative in Tripoli for the past four years, says: \u00abI\u2019ve seen exciting changes in Libya in a matter of months. They now have all the top international brands in the shops, modern cars on the roads and access to the internet.\u00bb Pollacco emphasises however that Western businesses aspiring to venture into the Libyan market need to prepare carefully, require good contacts and need to establish a physical presence. \u00abFace to face negotiations are the norm in Libya.\u00bb\nSome analysts believe that Malta will have to work hard to maintain the role it has enjoyed in Libya\u2019s international business dealings, now that Tripoli has resolved its differences with the West.\nLibya, they say, now wants to deal directly with foreign companies. They, however, cautious of an unfamiliar culture, are still likely to want to use Malta for back-office services, safe havens for families and a secure location for their goods.\nMalta offers excellent communications and transport links. And for foreign business people struggling with the pitfalls of obscure regulations, or the lack of them, the Maltese knowledge of the local business mentality is still a valuable asset.\nThe Times (London) January 18, 2005, Tuesday",

        "raw_content": "Happy Valentine\u2019s Day lovers! Hope you have/had a romantic interlude with your sweetie. My wife and I drove from Berkeley to Pleasant Hill with Dar so that he could see a neurologist for the first time in six years. As I wrote last week, we\u2019re worried that he might be having seizures.\nOy gevalt, the intake forms. I hate having to relive the pregnancy complications again and again. I hate having to relive the first two weeks in the NICU. I hate having to explain every little step on the road of horrors, from global developmental delays to MRI to cerebral palsy diagnosis to autism diagnosis to RCEB to ABA to IEP et cetera.\nOur waiting room in Pleasant Hill was one of the most beautiful waiting rooms I\u2019ve ever seen. I wish I\u2019d taken a picture. The walls had been hand-painted as a panorama of Mount Diablo Valley in lush bloom, with more poppies and crocuses and wildlife than you\u2019d realistically see in one go. The brush strokes of the flowers were just impressionistic enough. The place really made me and Dar smile!\nThis is also where I had a conversation with a maybe-13-year-old autistic kid. It was very\u2026movie version of autism. \u201cThese are my socks,\u201d she announced to me. \u201cMy mother ordered them on the phone.\u201d She even looked like an adolescent Temple Grandin. What blew my mind was that this mother, or someone, had left homegirl alone in the gorgeous waiting room. Like leaving Rain Man alone. I guess Mom trusted the admins, but wow.\nOur doctor, who I\u2019ll call Dr. H, resembled David Cross, the person who played Toby on \u201cArrested Development.\u201d He was one hundred percent empathetic, the kind of person who sincerely wants to get to know you. Reading off the intake forms, he asked me, \u201cadjunct professor? I know that can be very hard.\u201d I laughed that we weren\u2019t there to talk about me.\nLet\u2019s cut straight to the good part: Dr. H thinks that Dar almost certainly isn\u2019t having seizures. He watched our videos and he also got to see Dar do a few right there in his office. Now, of course he can\u2019t say for sure. But he characterized Dar\u2019s eye-close-head-shake-finger-arrest as \u201cstereotypical self-stimulation behavior.\u201d Ah, how sweet a stereotype can be!\nWhatever these episodes are, Dar is having fewer of them. A month ago he was having more than 100 in a day. Now it\u2019s almost never more than 50. We\u2019re hoping this is just one of those things, like spraying the hose or pouring dirt on the slide, that Dar obsesses over for a month or two and then forgets about. It\u2019s kind of like when you have a neuro-typical child and they get into something and then you buy that thing. Poof! Instant disinterest. Anyway, Dr. H found the reduction encouraging.\nDr. H, wifey and I had larger conversations about autism. Dr. H was happy to accept the record of the MRI and genetic testing that Dar had done, uh, seven years ago when Dar was about 18 months old. However, Dr. H says that technology has improved, and now we can learn new things. We may be able to find root causes of his condition, or ways in which his condition compares to the sufferings of other people with autism. Dr. H was not the first person to tell us that sometimes families like ours are happy to have joined extensive studies; benefits include money and insight.\nI\u2019m skeptical we\u2019re ever going to find out anything that leads to any kind of improvement in Dar\u2019s overall condition. I don\u2019t really care about where his autism came from. Dr. H busted out the old \u201csome families really want that closure\u201d chestnut, but\u2026I\u2019m also not paying for my mutt dog\u2019s genetic testing. I\u2019m not paying for my genetic history or filling out those Facebook memes. I love history, but this sort of thing feels more like blame-story. But\u2026maybe.\nDr. H scheduled a 40-minute EEG at Children\u2019s Hospital for Dar. Dr. H said several times that \u201cit\u2019s non-invasive.\u201d He says that if they\u2019re lucky enough to see one of his eye-close episodes during those 40 minutes, he\u2019ll be able to rule out seizures at something like 99.9% accuracy. If not, and if the episodes persist, Dr. H would like to schedule an overnight EEG. It\u2019s just as non-invasive, but it\u2019s a bother, because Dar has to be in their hospital all night. I\u2019d probably have to be there with him. Dr. H would also ask us to try to keep him awake in such a situation. Oh God, and I wait all day for Dar to sleep! But\u2026okay. Sure. We could give him some soda as he started to nod off. Heaven help me.\nThe doctor certainly wanted to help me. \u201cI want to give you some comfort,\u201d he said to me more than once, in a tone as if we were old friends. You know what? I\u2019ll take it.\nIf you\u2019re going to drive to Pleasant Hill, try to fashion a good outcome. In this case, we learned Dar probably isn\u2019t having seizures and we made a reasonable plan for the future. Pleasant!",

During the year I started to appreciate the world around me more. Work became less important. I could no longer get my security and confidence from my job. My priorities were changing. Towards the end of the year out there I became aware how mismatched my priorities were from what they should be. I lost my pride in my work, I lost my arrogance, I lost my confidence, I became depressed. I used to take pride in the fact that I wasn't very emotional. This was gone. I became very emotional and my emotions were out of control! This was hard on those around me, particularly Andrea. Two close friends, Liz and Stuart, were very supportive during that time and helped both Andrea and I.\nGod had to break me before he could remake me. On 4th October 1998, Andrea and I went along to a Sunday morning service at Lakeview Vineyard (now Reading Vineyard). Although I had felt the presence of the Spirit before, I had not experienced it to the point where the only thing that mattered was God. God had moved to the top of my priority list. I was still emotionally unstable, but God was on the case. I found that I had to trust God more and more. I could no longer do things of my own accord. I started to rebuild my life on God. I now know who the Holy Spirit is.",

Of those, 76 had recovered, 44 had died and 31 were still hospitalized.\nWhile there is no licensed vaccine to fight the Ebola virus, the World Health Organization (WHO) said the Ebola vaccine in question had performed well in a clinical trial in Guinea.\nThis is the eighth outbreak of Ebola in the sub-Saharan nation, and the second since an epidemic in West Africa killed over 11,000 people.\nWHO said the risk of the outbreak spreading to neighboring countries remains \u201cvery high\u201d but it does not recommend travel restrictions.\nThe virus was discovered near the River Ebola in 1976 in the northern part of the country, when it was known as Zaire.\nThe deadly virus is spread by contacting body fluids.

        "raw_content": "Poisonblack (FIN)\nPoisonblack - Lyijy (2013) (Japan Edition 2014)\nStyle : Hard Rock, Heavy Metal\nPoisonblack is a Finnish heavy/gothic metal band led by singer/guitarist Ville Laihiala, known for his vocals with the band Sentenced from 1996 - 2005.In 2003, their first album, Escapexstacy,was on the Finnish national charts for 3 weeks, peaking at No. 21.They opened for Iron Maiden at the Hartwall Areena in Helsinki on December 21, 2003 for the Dance of Death World Tour.Singer Juha-Pekka Lepp\u00e4luoto left in the autumn of 2003 to concentrate on his work with Charon.Laihiala, the band's principal songwriter, assumed vocal duties and has since led Poisonblack out of the gothic genre of their first album and in a musical direction that closely mirrors that of his former band Sentenced.In 2006, they toured Europe with Lacuna Coil and their second album, Lust Stained Despair reached No. 2 in Finland for 1 week.In 2008 they released \"A Dead Heavy Day\" which hit the Finnish Album Chart in position 6. After this success they toured Europe with Dark Tranquillity and Fear My Thoughts.2010 Poisonblack released \"Of Rust And Bones\", their fourth album. They did not tour much and in November 2010 it was announced that the band had signed with Hype Records.The Scandinavian release date for Poisonblack's latest album, \"Drive\", has been set for April 27, 2011.\nLyijy is the sixth studio album from the Finnish gothic metal band Poisonblack. The title of the album means lead in English.Holy crap, today I'm reviewing the fucking Juggernaut POISONBLACK. Yes you are reading it correctly I'm talking about POISONBLACK and I'm going to write it one more time \u2013 POISONBLACK. No further introduction here sorry I'm not Wikipedia and if you don't know Wikipedia, so you know where you can shove you head into, just kidding with you.This is the sixth album of this crazy Metal bunch, taking out from consideration \u201cEscapexstacy\u201d album that was more of Gothic Metal (btw I really liked this album), POISONBLACK albums are more of a Heavy Metal induced with some Hard Rock with several Glam influences and that's what I like about their music, taking all great Metal and Rock ingredients and mix them together. The question what did I get this time? Hopefully a new and yet again a great album, and I wrote hopefully.Within this album there are eleven tracks, all are solid and with great production. However, not each and every one of those actually made my personal cut, but there are several that I would like to recommend. \u201cHome Is Where The Sty Is\u201d is a classic Heavy Metal song, it is the first song that will once again reveal the great vocals by Ville Laihiala. \u201cMaybe Life Is Not For Everyone\u201d coming up fifth, is a power ballad that it's so catchy and great all over, guitars are willing and riffs are classic.Nonetheless, \u201cDeath by the Blues\u201d hails as number one. What I like to call an epic and classic. This is a song to be reminded and played for decades, sitting down with generations letting this hit pierce your ears time and time again.All in all this is yet another great album by POISONBLACK all rock-hard and powerful, maybe not revolutionary in its sound but sometimes you should do what you are good at and not try to surprise. That's what POISONBLACK did here.

The story begins with \"Flower's\" children, who discover her journal after she dies. They knew nothing about her life as a hippie and are shocked to discover this. Then the book turns into her journal and we never again go back to the original characters for closure.For me, Flower's character lacked depth. I didn't feel the connection to the life on the San Francisco streets that she was supposed to be living. She didn't know much about the music and avoided dru [...]\nThis review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.3.5 Stars Lucinda runs away from her small farm home & reinvents herself as Flower in 60's San Francisco. The novel follows Flower's adventures throughout 60's America & the many interesting characters she meets. I liked this book & enjoyed it. There were many beautifully written scenes & it really seemed to evoke the hippy 60's in America where it was set. However, I there were a few things that stood in the way of me liki [...]\nLook at Flower by Robert Dunn, a LibraryThing PDF-format eBook I began reading on May 27th. Although the happiness of a win was very present, it took awhile for me to get around to downloading the pdf and read it now and then from my computer screen at home.Look at Flower reads alot like beat poetry and alot how a guy would write about a girl (which the book happens to be evident of). The interpersonal relationships are vague and touch-and-go; probably very true of how hippie/communal relationsh [...]\nThis was an interesting book. It is a novel set in the 60\u2019s. It tells the story of a teenager who lived in the 60\u2019s and her life during that time. It was interesting how many different things this young woman went through. I found the book to be funny as well as sad. It held my attention and gave me a feel for the 60\u2019s.I feel that Flower had an interesting life. I liked it when she was hopping trains and hitchhiking. These seemed to be very realistic things that someone could have done the [...]\nRobert Dunn was born in 1950 and would remember the hippie era in the USA. The prologue sets the scene where the story of Flower is a diary of a Mother's life before she married and had children.I was not keen on the writing style of the 'diary', perhaps that is the lingo of the hippie era in America but for me it did not translate into writing particularly well. Certainly Flower wanted to follow the hippie dream of freedom but managed to hold onto her own morals, staying out of the drug culture [...]\nThe first quality the reader will notice is the carefree nature and spunk of the main character, Flower. The reader will be introduced into the world of \"hippie\". The novel is fast-paced and fun to read. The reader follows Flower's adventures on the train to taking risks by hitchhiking. Living vicariously through the characters is very possible. The experiences in the novel are unusual and will take the reader for a spin. The supporting characters don't have too much of a say in the novel, the r [...]\nI won this book through first reads. I enjoyed reading about a girl out in the world trying to find herself. She had adventures around every corner always new people to meet and always endless friends willing to help her along the way Anything to get by and friends found and lost love found and lost. this book was a good read and at a nice pace very mellow. I enjoyed this book and it was nice to see what it was like in the time since I will never know it was nice look into the world of peace an [...]\nAll hippies in San Francisco during the Summer of Love were into free love and drugs, or are they? They all believed in going with the flow and just letting things be without giving any real thought to the matter, or did they actually have intellectual thoughts, dreams and ideas? Look at Flower takes a 17-year-old runaway and shows what the Summer of Love was through her eyes. It is a quick read and very enjoyable.\nFlower, also known as Lucinda or Cynda, is a girl caught up in the various movements that took place during the 60's. While she is out trying to discover the world, she also discovers things about herself as well as others around her. She went from an innocent flower child to a woman in the midst of growing maturity. I just wish that I knew what happened to Toto!\nThis book is a must read if you have a passion for music or the hippie scene of the 1960s. Flower's spunk and free spirit render her endlessly likable, and the way in which the novel chronicles all of her adventures evokes that timeless quest for experience that was both present in the Haight-Ashbury scene in the 60s and also today.\nWhat a great book. The main character was my age so I could live in the story. We were only geographically in a different place during those years. It's a fun, summer afternoon read that will fill you with nostalgia if you are over 55 and will amuse and entertain those who are our children's age.\nIt was a fun book to read.

Polo!\u201d\nThe Time Warp Trio is three boys from Brooklyn who since finding \"The Book\" have been spontaneously warping to different times and places. Once warped they must locate \"The Book\" in order to get back home. In the first of the series the boys are warped to the time of Marco Polo and ride with the explorer to Xanadu, the great palace of Kublai Khan. There they narrowly avoid death by Royal Astrologist to locate the book and there way back to Brooklyn. Great series to recommend to young reluctant r [...]\nI hadn't read any of the Time Warp Trio. I was comparing it as I read to the Tree House Mysteries and found it not as enjoyable. Tough historical setting due to the lack of description given, I thought.\nI've been a Time Warp Trio fan since I was a kid, and I'm excited to be collecting them again to read to my son. Unfortunately this particular installment pales in comparison to the brilliant and hilarious earlier books. It's neither as amusing nor as well-structured, though the topic is still interesting and spending time with the trio is never unpleasant.\nHey guys and girls this is the kind of book that will make you want to read about Marco Polo and his adventures of what he did because he discovered a lot of things. My opinion about this book is that it made me laugh a lot and be surprised because of the beginning and the ending parts. I will also may be giving ***Spoil Alerts*** so if you don't like that I'm sorry. This book is a fiction and adventure book because they go to other places in camels and in the desert. Also when they go through t [...]\nThe Time Warp Trio: Marco? Polo! follows three friends as they are time warped by a magical blue book into the adventures of Marco Polo. The three boys are in a quest to find the blue book, which they know will quickly send them back to modern time. Things become complicated when the Emperor of China\u2019s astrologist starts to smell something fishy about the three boys. This texts combines humor, adventure, and a history lesson about thirteenth century Chine and the explorer Marco Polo. This book [...]\nThis is the sixteenth book in the Time Warp Trio series by Jon Scieszka. We've been slowly working our way through the series and we really enjoy these stories. We've skipped around a bit, but it doesn't seem to matter too much.This tale takes us to the middle of a desert as the trio join Marco Polo on the Silk Road in China. Our youngest studied Marco Polo last year and we've been reading additional books about his life and travels. This is the most outrageous of the stories we've read, but it [...]\nJoe finds himself alone in the desert and wondering what happened to the game of Marco Polo he and his friends had been playing in the Brooklyn YMCA pool. He is rescued by none other than\u2026 Marco Polo then led on an adventure to find The Book in Kublai Khan's Xanadu. Joe, Sam, and Fred must outwit Court Astrologer Ding Dong to make it home. Luckily, their horoscopes gave them some hints and Sam\u2019s knowledge of the Chinese zodiac seal the deal. Do you know what your zodiac sign is?\nThis series frustrated me. It's fairly well-written, but very formulaic. The book's do play off this formula, but the character's never try to learn anything about the time-traveling magic of the book, and the end of the series just leaves me with a lot of questions. I know I'm not exactly the target audience for this series, but I think I'd have a hard time recommending this to younger readers.\nI loved so many things about this book--as I love the series. Picking your own chinese zodiac at the end was a treat as was each of the chapters being numbered in chinese. This one integrated a real adventure.\nRead it outloud to my 8 year old son. He loved it! As a huge fan of the Magic Tree House series this was a good \"step-up\" in terms of language and humor. Will definitely read more in the series. (He wants me to add that he gives it 5 stars)\nsummary:Marco Polo is about learning about Marco Poloaracter Trait: Joe is funny and braveM.I.E: When joe met Marco Polo and saved the slaves from a sandstorm.I would recremend this book to anyone who likes history and science fiction.\nfor juveniles, but was kind of fun, read to John.\nUnder 100 pages\nMommy says: Cana started to read it on her own 8/2009 but was not interested. Maybe later.\nA light-hearted and easy read, with just enough nods to actual history to make it \"count\" in our history studies.\nThis book was great. I loved Kubla Khan!\nThese are great for early readers - Scieszka has a really quirky sense of humor - plus I just heard him speak and so like his writing even more now!\nHilarious time-traveling with the Time Warp Trio in the typical laugh-out-loud type of writing of Jon Scieszka.\nThis was one I read with my 10-year old, and it was OK at best.

        "raw_content": "Editorials, Gallery, Show Reviews 2\nDecadence in the Mile High City\nBy Ambre \u00b7 On January 13, 2016\nIn the city of Decadence, everyone is your best friend. I have never experienced anything like this festival before. The workers for the venue, check-in, security, medical, other photographers and staff, regardless if they had to be there or chose to be, seemed to have just as much fun as all of the fans. That\u2019s a rare quality in a festival and something worth going to whether you paid or not. It was very well organized, there were large scale schedules posted throughout the venue, and a map was given to ticket holders as well.\nLike any other concert, fans at the guardrail stayed there all night waiting for their favorite artists. However, something I\u2019ve rarely seen was people being able to go back and forth from the crowd to the front with ease. The people of Decadence were some of the nicest concert goers I had ever encountered. Security was able to move through the crowd with ease, as well as photographers if they needed to. Fans were genuinely there to have a good time, whether they were front row or half a mile in the back.\nMany concert\u2019s VIP access is waste of money where you pay more to have a worse viewing location. This was not the case with Decadence. Not only did VIP access guests have great vantage points (not just one, but two), they had access to their own bars and even VIP lounges. This was one of the few events I\u2019ve been to where not only is VIP worth the slightly higher price, but I would honestly recommend it. However, general admission guests also had many bars to choose from and an entire area where they were welcome to hang out and interact with other guests, including a merry-go-round and the Silent Disco Garden.\nLast but not least, the DJ\u2019s more than delivered. I had never previously seen any of the artists on the lineup for Decadence and I was more than impressed. Bassnectar put on a great show on December 30th for Decadence, then immediately went and did his New Year\u2019s Eve show in Birmingham, Alabama. At first I was skeptical of how Jack \u00dc would perform live together, but I was so pleased with the performance. Skrillex and Diplo together is an incredible thing and I\u2019ll definitely be looking to see them together again.\nOverall, Decadence for New Year\u2019s Eve is something everyone should go to at least once. It is more than just a fun night, it\u2019s an experience.\nFor the full gallery by Ambre Rogue click here\nBassnectarbig giganticcoloradodecadenceEDMgalantisjack\u00fc\nA Nashville-based photographer and writer that has been a part of the MEB team since June of 2014.

        "raw_content": "Vitamin D Essential in your pregnancy\nVitamin D is beneficial for your own personal health. Vitamin D now has extensive research supporting its role in immune function, healthy cell division and bone health. Vitamin D is necessary for the absorption and metabolism of calcium and phosphorus. Many studies are finding a connection between low serum vitamin D levels and an increased risk of certain types of cancers, autoimmune disease, neurological disease, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular disease.\nVitamin D invests in the well-being of your baby by supporting healthy bone development. Deficiency with vitamin D is also related to preeclampsia.\nWe will discuss more on Vitamin D essential in your pregnancy....\n10.....What Contributes To Vitamin D Deficiency?\nAt this time, 40-60% of the entire U.S. population is vitamin D deficient, including pregnant women. The reasons for this widespread deficiency are many, and to begin to unfold this issue you can start with understanding there is a very short list of foods that contain vitamin D.\nThese foods are egg yolk, salmon and cod liver oil, however, most vitamin D is consumed through fortified foods like milk. For the 75% of the population that is lactose intolerant, fortified milk products are not a reliable source of vitamin D consumption.\nAdditionally, many factors influence the body\u2019s ability to make and absorb vitamin D. These factors include: where you live, the season, how much time you spend outdoors without sunscreen, skin pigmentation, age, obesity, pollution, and having healthy intestines with optimal absorption capacity. These factors come in to play because Vitamin D is actually a hormone and needs sunlight, in order for the body to manufacture it properly.\nAt this time, a large part of the U.S. population falls into one, or more, of these categories:\nUses sunscreen\nIs a senior citizen (50+), so it is not surprising that vitamin D deficiencies have risen to such proportions.",

        "raw_content": "Rewind: Big Red Festival, July edition\nJuly 16, 2014 Jonathan Briggins Rewind 0\nPrince Edward Island is a perfect summer destination to grab some great grub and hang out by the ocean. It\u2019s only fitting that Big Red Festival kicked off with a performance featuring the breezy guitar licks of Bahamas, also the name of a great getaway island. Afie Jurvanen, known as Bahamas, has a new album coming out August 19. Naturally his setlist featured a number of new songs from Bahamas is Afie mixed in with old favourites including \u201cAlready Yours\u201d, \u201cCaught Me Thinking\u201d and set closer \u201cLost In The Light\u201d. Jurvanen seemed happy to be performing on the island and talked about wanting to come back to play a non-festival show in the near future. Early on in his set, a fan threw a hat on stage. Instead of being offended by a projectile, he picked up the hat, read the label that said \u201cMade in P.E.I\u201d with approval and wore the hate for the next song. Jurvanen was playful describing his music, not afraid to make fun of himself. He retold a story of recently working with an intimidating body builder who asked him what sort of music he made. Before Jurvanen could answer, the building body declared he was playing \u201clight rock\u201d. A slight insult, but something Jurvanen found funny and referenced multiple times throughout his set. He complimented the crowd on actively listening instead of talking like what can happen at festivals, especially during the first act.\nNext up, the Town Heroes took the stage in the beer tent. The duo from Cape Breton featuring Mike Ryan and Bruce Gillis started to raise the energy level of the festival after a chill \u201clight rock\u201d set from Bahamas. Guitarist Mike Ryan told the crowd to stay hydrated on the hot day, mentioning his mother was a nurse so he had to remind everybody. The duo had their song \u201cNew York City\u201d featured in the opening montage of a Hockey Night In Canada Playoff game this past spring and were excited to share that tidbit of information before performing it. Ironically, Bruce Gillis was wearing a shirt with a CTV logo.\nMatt Mays and his band kept the rock and roll coming on the main stage. There were three things I found weird about the set. First, the flowing long surfer hair Mays has sported for the past few years is gone. Instead he has a neatly trimmed beard and hair combo. Second, Mays dedicated Dartmouth, Nova Scotia anthem\u201dCity of Lakes\u201d to \u201canybody from the dirty D\u201d. Lots of people raised their hands claiming to be from Dartmouth. Now I have no statistical proof to back up this statement, but I\u2019m pretty sure the majority of the crowd wasn\u2019t from Dartmouth, even if a lot of people raised their hands when Mays asked who was from there. Thirdly, it\u2019s hard to not get choked up when hearing Mays sing the line about losing a friend during \u201cCity of Lakes\u201d. It\u2019s still weird seeing the band without the late Jay Smith.\nJuly Talk are quickly winning over crowds across Canada including National Post concert reviewer Ben Kaplan who called them \u201cmy new favourite band\u201d after seeing them perform at TURF recently. While the band is a five piece, all eyes are on singer Leah Fay and guitarist/vocalist Peter Dreimanis. You never know what will happen between the two is they flirt, taunt and assault each other. Early in the set, Fay took a swig of water then spit it all over Dreimanis, soaking his shirt that was becoming increasingly wet from sweat. Fay also won the crowd over by wearing a crop top with P.E.I. written across the front and declaring \u201cP.E.I\u2019s got the best air in the world.\u201d Before playing single \u201cGuns & Ammunition\u201d, Dreimanis introduced it as a new song, tricking drummer Danny Miles who started to put down his shaker, thinking the band was going off script. Miles was further teased by Fay who asked him to take off his shirt, which he did.\nJuly Talk\u2019s set overlapped with Seattle\u2019s Death Cab For Cutie who opened with the slow burner \u201cI Will Possess Your Heart\u201d from Narrow Stairs. The song starts off with an instrumental intro for a few minutes before vocals come in. Watching people scurry over from all over the festival grounds to the main stage once they realized Death Cab had started was like watching ants react to sugary juice from a popsicle drip near an anthill. In terms of energy, it was like turning everything down a couple notches from the rock and roll of both Matt Mays, The Town Heroes and July Talk from earlier in the day.\nLastly, the Killers took to the main stage. They started the set by blasting \u201cBlitzkreig Bop\u201d by the Ramones, a fitting intro and tribute to Tommy Ramone who passed away the day before. The band then took stage, opening with\u201dMr. Brightside\u201d from 2004\u2019s Hot Fuss. A few songs in, lead singer Brandon Flowers gave the crowd the choice of a cover of \u201cI Think We\u2019re Alone Now\u201d by Tommy James & The Shondells or \u201cBad Moon Rising\u201d by Clearance Creedwater Rival. The crowd cheered loudest for the CCR cover, a no-brainer really considering Saturday\u2019s supermoon. It was the first time the Las Vegas band had been to P.E.I., but Flowers was aware of his bearings, mentioning Charlottetown and Prince Edward Island multiple times, seemingly enjoying the challenge of pleasing a new audience.\nCheck out Mixtape\u2019s gallery of photos of Matt Mays, July Talk and Death Cab For Cutie.\nPhotos of Big Red Festival in Charlottetown\nSummer Festival Guide: XXX CLVR aims to bring people together at SappyFest",

        "title": "Targeted Email: From Spam to Choice Part 6",
        "raw_content": "Thursday Mar 27th 2003 by Bruce McCracken\nIt is irrefutable that a well designed and executed targeted e-mail campaign produces results with a very positive return on investment (ROI). Frequently, organizations fail to see the bigger potential and assess the endeavor from a long-term strategic perspective. Targeted e-mail is an opportunity for a mutually beneficial two-way flow of communications between the corporation and its clients, customers.\nAll too often customer responses are not dealt with in a timely and efficient manner in areas of support and fulfillment. This results in erosion of the relationship and can become self-defeating in the efforts of the organization to build stronger loyalty from the customers.\nCoordination between departments and business processes must be accomplished. High-level management and key strategic teams must have visibility throughout the enterprise to see the over all process with clarity. The interrelated components of the customer life cycle are only as strong as the weakest link in the chain. Many weaknesses and fissures in the structure may threaten the execution of an end-to-end customer satisfaction solution. Reinforcing the weak points, alleviating bottlenecks, and streamlining processes with coordinated integration from a customer centric perspective will go a long ways in accomplishing a CRM objective. The ability to see into the reality may dispel the customer service myth that many enterprises believe.\nCRM: Customer Rapport Mismanagement?\nDavid Daniels, senior analyst for Jupiter Research states, \"Companies that fail to get serious about their management of customer service e-mail now will pay the price with higher customer service costs and lost revenues down the line. Inadequate service in the online channel only accelerates the rate at which customers turn to their telephone.\"\nThe results in the future will be increased costs for customer service and support as the volume grows. This is illustrated in the figure below from the February 2003 Jupiter Research report, \"Jupiter Market Forecast Report: CRM Through 2008.\"\nOnline Touch Points Post Modest Growth \u0097 Phone Will Continue to Dominate\nA key finding of the report states, \"Online CRM technology spending will grow to $4.7 billion in 2008. While the share of service contacts initiated online will double between 2003 and 2008, phone contacts will dominate, growing to 58 billion in 2008. Increasing e-mail contacts will frustrate businesses and consumers; accordingly, businesses must invest in e-mail infrastructure and resource enhancements now.\"\nThe report further states, \"Notwithstanding the continued failure of most businesses operating online to manage inbound e-mail well, e-mail volume will more than double over the next five years, from one billion in 2003 to 3.3 billion in 2008. In a recent Jupiter Consumer Survey, 88 percent of respondents said they have used e-mail to contact customer service. However, the continued lackluster performance of e-mail service will continue to drive customers to use the phone, leading to snowballing service costs and ultimately making e-mail the most expensive customer service touch point to process.\"\nThe business support and customer service design in implementing new technologies may be at fault. Fundamental errors at the foundation may account for much of the problem.\nSome light can be shed by the report, \"Results of Research: Trends in Web Based Support\" conducted in October 2002 by crmindustry.com and supportindustry.com. The study surveyed 78 respondents across all verticals and sizes of businesses. Some of the findings indicate a gap in adopting online and e-mail support when viewed from the perspective of strategic planning. While 76 percent said customer demand for their Web-based support options has increased, 65 percent of respondents aren't measuring ROI from their e-service initiatives. Of slightly more than a third that do, 25 percent said they've not been able to quantify ROI to date. The report indicated that only 60 percent of the respondents \"have a formalized strategy in place for delivering Web-based service and support.\" Only about half are \"leveraging a problem management feature that creates a single trouble ticket when a customer begins with a self-service session and escalates to a phone call.\"\nThese results indicate major problems in the development of a sound strategy to deliver customer care. Perhaps the biggest crime is that the policies are not customer centric. The varied approaches seem to be to the convenience the company and/or speculation about what the customer wants. Customers are not offered a wide menu of options to choose their preferred method of contact. Sadly, less than half of the respondents inquire as to the customer's satisfaction with the process. The following figures from the research speak for themselves in amplifying support design flaws.\nHas the demand for your web-based customer service increased, decreased or stayed the same over the last year?\nOf Responses Percent Graph\nIncreased 59 75.6%\nDecreased 3 3.8%\nRemained the same 16 20.5%\nTotal Responses: 78 100%\nSource: CRMindustry.com/Supportindustry.com\nIf customers/employees fail in their attempt to solve their issue, what escalation features do you have in place?

This offered a potential of 312 responses if each respondent offered an option in each category. Yet the responses totaled only 136, an average of 1.74 without any single feature being available to customers by half of the respondents. Perhaps lessons that should have been learned about consumers from the dot-com bust of 2000/2001 have not been mastered.\nThe distance between the needs and desires of the customer versus the internal service level performance metrics of the company are illustrated clearly in the figures below. Indeed, benchmarks may actually be graffiti carved into the process by disgruntled frustrated customers that may choose to resolve the issue by taking their business elsewhere in the future where their needs can be met on their terms.\nDoes your company have established service levels for every customer communication channel?\nYes 50 64.9%\nDoes your company conduct customer satisfaction and ease of use surveys for your web site?\nPositioning for Profits\nUpper level management is recognizing that more effective planning for strategic initiatives is required at top levels of the enterprise to close the gap between an increasingly demanding sophisticated customer and often disjointed business practices.\nBusiness reporting tools to integrate the view of the business processes are becoming more important to steer the corporate ship out of the fog that can enable strategic planning. Implementation capabilities are looming on the horizon in a cost effective, timely, and relatively painless fashion through technological advances leading to enhanced business intelligence (BI). Called a dashboard by some, the customized reports tie information together from varied sources.\nJohn Hagerty, vice president, AMR Research, elaborates on the emerging use of dashboards. \"A lot of folks have created a management dashboard or scorecard. The number one area is in sales and marketing. The concept of pulling information in from any type of SFA or CRM system, in general, is one of key things that people do around performance management. They have to have that top line view to establish the marching orders for the organization.\"\nIn a March 2003 report, an AMR Research survey revealed that, \"More than 50 percent of responding companies are planning to implement scorecards and/or dashboards in the near term.\" Further, 14.3 percent of the respondents cited customer service as a dashboard and scorecard preference.\nCombining BI for a wider view is termed enterprise performance management (EPM) by AMR Research. In the March 2003 report, \"Enterprise Applications Outlook for 2003: The Performance-Driven Enterprise,\" AMR Research contend that EPM (also customer fulfillment), and BI will see strong growth as indicated by the figures below.\nBI/Analytics Market Growth Projections\nRevenue ($M) 5.6 6.1 7.5 9.3 10.9 12.2 17%\nGrowth 10% 8% 23% 24% 17% 12%\nSource: AMR Research Group, 2003\nBob Anderson, research director of Gartner, looks ahead to see BI as imperative. \"With XML as the transport, we will see analytics across the value and supply chains. It is not a matter of if; it is a matter of when. They need the information, but they do not need to be in this business. In this area we will see a very preferred paradigm using an ASP or outsourced model. It used to be one business against another, now it will be one ecosystem against another.\"\nHoward Dresner, vice president and research director of Gartner, notes, \"The whole notion of the real time enterprise is going to emerge. The benefits are going to be impressive for some organizations. This is being done today, but the organizations have had to do the heavy lifting themselves. In a lot instances, the small enterprise can now get many of the same benefits as a large enterprise would that has a large IT organization. A real benefit of the ASPs is that they can service to their customer constituents an entire menu of metrics. For the small and mid-sized market, they really don't have where with all to it themselves. It is a natural fit.\"\nHagerty adds, \"We are seeing the reemergence of the outsourcing process, not just in the hosting but the whole shebang. With a little bit of effort, it is pretty easy for folks to dive in and really understand their business a lot better. They have to figure out which metrics really matter to the company so as to not get caught up in all of the chatter.\"\nDresner points out that speed impacts the value of the information. \"The issue at hand is the culmination of 'perishability.' We did an extensive study last year on business intelligence with 540 organizations. One of the things we asked involved the latency associated with data. If they can improve to yesterday's data that would be more than sufficient. If we fast forward to 2006, that is a very different circumstance. Then you will see to the 35-40% level, a desire for instantaneous access to data.\"\nDresner also submits that the enterprise must exercise due diligence in planning and have clearly defined objectives with sound reasons for the endeavor. \"They have to have a clearer business model and business justification for doing it. You just don't do this on a lark. You have to know why you are doing it and what the benefits are going to be.\"\nHagerty points out an obstacle and consideration for implementation, especially if the organization has been involved in mergers or acquisitions. \"One of the trade-offs especially for larger companies is that people have different metrics. You have to have a common basis of understanding, or one source of the truth, to be sure that people are looking at the same information in the same way. A huge issue for a lot of organizations is the inability of people to come to a consensus on what they are actually talking about.\"\nIn considering an ASP, Dresner does caution that the service level agreement (SLA) is very important and must be designed so as to not have caveats leading to exorbitant costs for customization or non-standardized reports. The enterprise must also ensure that it has ownership of the data should it want to take its ball and go home by opting out of the relationship. \"The issue with the ASPs in general is the ownership issue. The service level agreement is everything. You have to be very careful.\"\nIn Sync, in Step, Into the Future\nHagerty notes a cultural change that is having an impact on business. \"As senior executives move up the ranks, the people who were brought up using computer systems will be much more in tune to figuring this out. Analytics become more important over time as people become more comfortable with this way of viewing business and have a more savvy key management team.\"\nDresner sees a viable value proposition. \"Ultimately, there is the opportunity to deliver deep insights into the business without the latency. Organizations will be able to react to critical business events without having to anticipate what is going to happen in the future or reacting too late.\"\nHagerty submits, \"What you will see in the next couple of years is a much more of an intense look at using performance management as a drive to a desired state of performance in goal setting, meeting those goals, and predicting performance in a sense of being able to determine something to drive the process to its conclusion.\"\nAnderson sees a faster business speed looming. \"By sheer necessity, businesses are going to have to take BI more seriously than they ever have before. As soon as the economy revives, those who made the investment to get ready for it will be the winners. This train is coming. This is a strategic focus that needs to be invested in for when the economy picks up. In the future BI can be an active watchdog for the CEO, CFO, and COO.\"\nThrough dashboards and other aspects of BI that are increasingly being offered in a cost effective manner, business will have the vision to potentially meet customer demands. The dots can be connected to create a clearer picture of how the experience works for both the customer and company. A strategic approach that is proactively based upon reality will yield a positive change. As the Spaniard Santayana observed many years ago, \"Those who do not learn from mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them.\"",

        "title": "Movie Critic Dave | Review | The Tree of Life",
        "raw_content": "Review | The Tree of Life\nWhere do I begin? The oft-praised Terrence Malick, writer and director of The Tree of Life, has finally introduced his much anticipated film to the world. It initially premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in France to what was described as 70% cheers and 30% boos. That being said, there's a huge backstory to The Tree of Life. Almost 13 months ago Malick was set to release the picture at last year's Cannes Festival, yet he pulled the movie from the competition because he felt it needed more editing. Inevitably, the year long delay left critics more eager than imaginable to view the film. Despite the fraction of displeased moviegoers, The Tree of Life still managed to win the Palme d'Or (the Festival's most prestigious award).\nLet me now explain that Malick's The Tree of Life is nothing like anything most people have seen before. What can only be described as a hybrid of \"experimental\" filmmaking, Malick's bold tale of one man's search for \"the meaning of life\" contains very little dialogue. Most movies tell a story through conventional narrative, however experimental films tell a story through imagery. The best analogy I can make is a novel verses a poem. Most movies are like novels. As a reader or viewer we gain understanding of the characters and their situations through dialogue. On the contrary, The Tree of Life is a poem. We are forced to gain a deep understanding of the main characters through facial expressions and vivid imagery. Since the audience is forced to interpret the story on their own, this results in a vague, yet personal experience.\nTo put the film into perspective, The Tree of Life nears a runtime of two hours and 20 minutes. Despite being a somewhat lengthy movie, there's only around 30 minutes of actual dialogue between characters. What almost seems like an elaborate prayer at times, the film is very thought provoking and beautiful to say the least. Malick once again creates a movie for himself and not a general audience. He breaks the mold here and for that he should be greatly recognized.\nOn the flip side, this is not a typical film for a casual moviegoer. The Tree of life is anything but an easy watch. The movie's intentions aren't clear and its meaning is virtually unknown. In fact, The Tree of Life may be one of the most challenging films I've ever watched. It places sole responsibility on the audience to determine its significance. I will avoid giving any spoilers about the movie but tell you one thing. At the conclusion of the film I had my personal opinion of what transpired and I have not seen the same interpretation from any other critic to date. Perhaps that's what helps make the movie transcending. It's Malick's interpretation of a man's spiritual journey, and isn't that what spirituality really is? Faith without knowing. And for that Mr Malick, we salute you.\nYoung Jack O'Brien\nFinnegan Williams\nJack O'Brien (age 5)\nMichael Koeth\nR.L. O'Brien\nJack's Ex\nR.L. (age 2)\nDarylin Nagy\nMark Manthey\nMatthew Reale",

        "title": "NEWS: La Belle Vie is Closing - Mpls.St.Paul Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Home Eat & Drink Foodie NEWS: La Belle Vie is Closing\n2015 Fall Restaurant Week: PICKS!\nLa Belle Vie, the most important restaurant in Minneapolis, is closing. Last day: Oct. 24, one day shy of their 10-year anniversary at the current Minneapolis location. Before that they had been open for seven and a half years in Stillwater, bringing the grand total run of the restaurant to some 17 1/2 years.\nIn that time, the restaurant, led by chef and owner Tim McKee, won countless local awards for its food, cocktails, and wine, and nurtured a generation of chefs who went out to make their own restaurants, creating a constellation of competition which represents at least a third of the top restaurants in Minneapolis. Even a cursory list of McKee mentees, both at now-closed Solera and at La Belle Vie, would contain Minneapolis\u2019 three most recent winners of the Food & Wine top ten chefs in America (which McKee also won once): Jim Christiansen, of Heyday, and Erik Anderson and Jamie Malone of forthcoming Brut. But the list would also include Sameh Wadi of Saffron and World Street Kitchen, Jack Riebel of Il Foro, Mike DeCamp of Monello, Don Saunders of The Kenwood, Matthew Bickford of Icehouse, Lucas Almendinger of Co-op Creamery, Sean Smalley of Smalley\u2019s Barbeque (which McKee still partly owns), pastry chef Diane Yang of Spoon and Stable, Adam Eaton of Saint Dinette, and many, many more.\nLa Belle Vie was also enormously influential in crafting Minnesota\u2019s beverage landscape. Longtime La Belle Vie sommelier Bill Summerville, now an independent wine consultant, was responsible through his list at La Belle Vie for some significant part of Minneapolis\u2019 focus on wines from small European vineyards. The restaurant also started the local craft cocktail revolution with longtime maverick bartender Johnny Michaels; just last week La Belle Vie\u2019s current bartending team, led by Adam Gorski, won the city\u2019s top bartending competition, Iron Bartender.\nSeveral of the 40-some employees losing their jobs in this closure have been with McKee at La Belle Vie for the entire 17 1/2-year run.\nWhy is Minneapolis\u2019 only fine-dining restaurant and one of its most beloved spots closing?\nIn an interview this morning, McKee pointed to a number of factors. \u201cIt\u2019s never a singular why,\u201d he said. \u201cFine dining is a very, very difficult niche to fill. The demand is lower, and the costs are significantly higher. Our forks are $5 each. Our staff is the most expensive you can get, too. When you\u2019re running a business like this in which the margins are incredibly small, whenever anything happens, you feel it right away.\u201d The road construction outside the restaurant all summer, he noted, didn\u2019t help.\nBut the restaurant has been teetering ever since the state of Minnesota instituted higher minimum wages without a tipped employee credit. \u201cWe had to raise the minimum wage for all our tipped employees\u2014bartenders, servers, wait assistants, food runners. The real failing is that the government recognizes their real wage in regards to taxation,\u201d requiring them to declare the tips that tipped employees receive on their credit-card billings, \u201cyet the government doesn\u2019t recognize it in terms of the minimum wage. On their W-2, you\u2019ve got people earning $25-$40 an hour, but I was required to raise their wages. Do I think people should be able to afford their lives, and make a living wage? Absolutely, in every way. But these laws treat restaurateurs as if we\u2019re monsters maltreating our employees. There\u2019s such a shortage of workers in this town, if we weren\u2019t taking good care of our employees they could walk out the door and get five jobs more agreeable to them tomorrow.\u201d\nAnd if he has been losing money since the new minimum wage, instituted in August, McKee believes the forthcoming package of new laws proposed by the City of Minneapolis, the Working Families Agenda, will make things far worse. This agenda includes punishment for restaurants who cut employee shifts on short notice, when sales aren\u2019t there\u2014as is routine in Minnesota for snow, extreme cold, or other unpleasant weather\u2014or who ask employees to work an unscheduled shift, as is routine for last minute parties. \u201cThe Working Families Agenda is horrible, horrible,\u201d says McKee. \u201cI really feel betrayed by [Mayor] Betsy Hodges. She came in saying she was pro small business, and is now pushing an agenda that is so far from small business-friendly that it\u2019s absurd.\u201d\nI met with McKee in his office at the restaurant company Parasole, hours before he broke the news to his staff; he looked drawn and thin. \u201cI don\u2019t want to focus on the whys and the hows,\u201d he said, changing the subject. \u201cIt\u2019s really hard. I\u2019d like to celebrate the accomplishments of La Belle Vie, that\u2019s what helps me cope. When we opened La Belle Vie, cooks did not go out and open their own restaurants.\u201d As a critic who has covered Minneapolis since starting as City Pages\u2019 restaurant critic in 1997, I can vouch for that; La Belle Vie was one of the first in the city of chef-driven, small-farmer focused restaurants, helping to create the template, alongside other pioneers like Lucia Watson, that scores of later restaurants would follow.\n\u201cMy original intent with La Belle Vie was not to make the best restaurant, the original intent was to make a little neighborhood restaurant. But people kept saying: This is the best restaurant in Minnesota. When we moved, we decided that if that\u2019s what everyone thinks, let\u2019s dive in. Let\u2019s be it. Along the way, after we started [Spanish tapas bar] Solera, I really saw that we were in a position to change how Minneapolis approached food, and it was really exciting. That\u2019s what I wanted to do, to change the way people in Minneapolis, people in the Twin Cities, experienced food. I wanted to elevate the level of dining in the Twin Cities. When I see articles calling us Best New Food City in the country [Saveur magazine on Minneapolis, in June 2015] I like to think I was part of it.\u201d McKee received national attention for his cooking at La Belle Vie, winning Minnesota\u2019s first James Beard Award or a chef, in 2009.\n\u201cBut today, my main concern is that my employees are taken care of. I want everyone to know: If you have a chance to hire someone from La Belle Vie, these folks are the best of the best, anybody who would be lucky enough to hire them will be amazed at what a good stroke of luck they have.\u201d\nThat\u2019s all, folks. All we have now is tears, and questions. Can Minneapolis survive without La Belle Vie? We are going to have to. Where are the next generations of homegrown national-class chefs going to come from? Hopefully somewhere. Where can the fans of McKee\u2019s cooking go to eat his food? Your best bet is to watch for the special events at Smalley\u2019s and at the restaurants, owned by others, he still has a hand in: Sea Change, Libertine, Mozza Mia, and Masu.\n\u201cAt night I\u2019d be at La Belle Vie,\u201d he told me. \u201cI don\u2019t know what I\u2019ll be doing at night now. The simple math of it is: I know a ton of people are going to let us know how much La Belle Vie meant to them. If all of those people would have come in twice more a year, we\u2019d still be open. It\u2019s so important that if there\u2019s a restaurant or business in your community that you feel is important, you\u2019ve got to make it your mission to support them. Otherwise they will close.\u201d\nWith that, McKee left to deliver the bad news to his staff.",

        "title": "It\u2019s All About Color | Musebreak",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Art \u00bb It\u2019s All About Color\nby Marva Maida on Dec 22, 2013 in Art\nColor plays a major role in art. It can set a mood. It can change the hierarchy of a composition; pushing the subject into the foreground or gently allowing it to fade off into the distance. Color can create harmony or conflict, depending on the artist\u2019s choice of palette. It can give subconscious meaning to an element. Yet the most interesting observable fact that happens with color is its ability to perceptually change, depending on its environment. An artist has control over texture and line work; they can set the stage with composition and pattern, but the one uncontrollable factor in a work of art, is color.\nIn studying color theory, an artist learns that color has perceptual changes depending on the visible light and surrounding color. We learn that even though we may have chosen specific colors for our piece, when and where the artwork is viewed changes the overall effect we may have been trying to achieve; that a work of art will appear different in sunlight as opposed to fluorescent or incandescent lighting. It will change depending on the wall color or physical space that it resides in. And at some point, an artist has to give up stringent control and allow the art to take on a life of its own.\nIf you\u2019ve ever done any home decorating, you\u2019ll have experienced this phenomenon. A color chosen in a store from a swatch of fabric or a paint card does not look the same when placed in your home. It might appear duller or more vibrant depending on its surroundings. It might not feel like the same color at all. A friend of mine painted her house a sedate shade of beige, only to be stunned to see that in early morning light, it appeared to be a rosy pink. How can this be? The painter must have bought the wrong paint!\nHow colors relate to one another is a fascinating study. If you look at the image below, the purple square on the black background appears larger and more vibrant than that on the white background. The purple on the pink background fades off in the distance, whereas on the green it jumps out at you. The purple squares in this image are all the same size and color; it\u2019s only the background colors that change. This image shows how the human eye perceives color differently depending on its surroundings.\nIn the image below, if you cover the lower half of it with your hand, you\u2019ll see two different blue squares, one on a blue background and one on a green. The squares appear to be different color; the left more green than blue. But they are exactly the same color. This perceptual change is due to its surrounding color. If you look at only the longer blue rectangle on the lower half of the image (the exact same color) you will see that the color is consistent throughout the horizontal bar.\nUnderstanding color relativity and how color changes with its environment is only one of the challenges an artist must learn when working with color. An artist also studies how colors are created; what colors are made when mixed together. Most everyone knows the three basic primary colors: red, blue and yellow. We know that when we mix red and blue, we get purple; when we mix yellow and red, we get orange; and that mixing blue and yellow makes green. Those are the secondary colors (purple, orange and green). Some may also be aware that if you mix a primary and a secondary color, you get the tertiary colors of yellow-orange, red-orange, red-purple, blue-purple, blue-green and yellow-green. Yet many people have no experience with color beyond that point. They know their childhood box of crayons has 64 different colors (with a built in sharpener!), but most have no idea what colors were blended together to create those specific Crayola colors. They might be surprised to learn that the Burnt Sienna crayon is not just a mix of red and yellow, but has a tiny bit of blue thrown in to help desaturate the hue.\nAn artist studying color learns that most people are affected by color in two different ways. There\u2019s a natural association that happens when viewing a color, and there\u2019s a subconscious, psychological meaning that originates from a cultural association that people have. For example, most people feel calmed by the color blue. They associate cooler colors like blues and greens with nature, the sky and water, and it feels familiar and safe. People associate warmer colors such as yellow or red with fire and blood, creating feelings of energy, passion, fear, anger, or violence. But some of these associations are cultural. In Asia, the color red is associated with wealth, where in the U.S. people associate green with money. Purple is often associated with death in eastern culture, but in western culture associates it with royalty or bravery.\nAdding more color confusion to the mix, most people think that warmer colors only reside on the red side of the color wheel and that cool colors reside on the blue side, but this isn\u2019t true. Each color has a warm and cool variation, depending on how much visible yellow or blue is in the hue. The image below shows an example of how each of the three primary colors (blue, red, yellow) has a warm and cool variation. The color to the left is warm; the color to the right is cool.\nIn color theory, when we talk about color harmony, we speak about how well colors interact with each other. How they add visual interest without making the piece overwhelming or chaotic. Two basic color formulas that create color harmony are Analogous color and Complementary color. Colors that are close together on the color wheel are analogous and create a soothing, relaxing feel when used in a composition. Colors opposite each other on the color wheel are complementary and create contrast; a visual energy or stimulation to the eye. Nature often provides the perfect color palette. When in doubt, select a color palette from the multitude of colors thrown together that nature provides.\nWhether you\u2019re choosing color for a work of art, for a new couch that you\u2019re planning on purchasing in the future, or just trying to pick a color from your box of Crayola crayons, these color applications will assist in making a color choice that\u2019s right for you. How well you understand color theory and its application will determine whether you become master of the box of 64, and whether that leads you beyond, to the lofty level of 150 colors, now offered in a store near you.",

        "raw_content": "Home Canning in glass jars might seem old-fashioned to a lot of people, but it is a very healthy and green way of living. Its really quite simple and \u201cyes\u201d you CAN do it too!\nYou will enjoy the rewards of numerous homemade meals and snacks. When you preserve food, you create healthy products that save you time in food preparation, a real blessing given today\u2019s hectic lifestyles. Individual jars are opened and served as is, or used to simplify meal and snack preparation.\nWe would like to share with you our favorite canning recipes and techniques that have been passed down from several generations. It has always been a way of life for us and instead of running to the grocery store, we made a trip to the basement. Over the years a lot of families have lost the knowledge that once put the pleasure of eating natural, delicious produce available year-round.\nYou certainly don\u2019t have to live in the country to enjoy the pleasures of canning and it is very gratifying to know that you too can preserve your own food.\nOne of our family favorites is Home Canning Peaches. I have such fond memories of this as a child. The fresh smell of the fruit and the excitement in the kitchen as everyone helped out. Once in a while my Mother would give me a fresh slice off a peach just before she put it in the jar. It was a real treat and I will never forget those days.\nThere was one part of this process that I was too young to understand at the time, but it sure is handy to know now. You might have noticed that fruit will turn brown in a short period of time after removing the peel. This reaction is called oxidation and can be prevented by treating the fruit with citric acid and/or ascorbic acid (vitamin C). You will want to follow the manufactures instructions when using these. You can also use a mixture of Lemon Juice and water to accomplish the same thing. All of these are perfectly healthy to use (otherwise we would not use them).\nObviously, you are interested on how to make your family go green (because you are reading this article). I\u2019m sure you\u2019re concerned about their health and our nature of course.",

        "raw_content": "We all deal with stress, whether it\u2019s from long work hours, a busy schedule at home or the stress of dealing with chronic health issues. If it\u2019s a short lived situation, it\u2019s not a problem, but long term stress can have a powerful impact on your health.\nThe purpose of the adrenal glands is to help your body deal with various types of stress, whether it\u2019s from an injury, illness, relationships or work. Your endurance, resilience and energy are dependent on the healthy functioning of your adrenal glands. The adrenal glands command hormones which also impact your overall health, including the stress hormones, such as cortisol, aldosterone and androgens. Although the adrenals are no larger than a walnut and weigh less than a grape, these tiny pyramid shaped glands that sit on top of your kidneys affect the function of every tissue, organ and gland in your body. (1)\nChronic stress is taxing on the adrenal glands and can lead them to become under responsive, this is also known as adrenal fatigue. (2) This under responsiveness means less hormone production and can lead to numerous negative symptoms such as:\nMorning fatigue Depression Food cravings (sweet, salt & fat)\nLack of energy Decreased sex drive Hormone imbalance\nWeight gain Brain fog Autoimmune conditions\nChronic fatigue Insulin resistance Inability to handle stress\n3 Stages of Stress Response (which can lead to adrenal fatigue)\nThe body has three levels or stages of dealing with stress. They are the alarm, resistance and exhaustion phase. (3) Let\u2019s take a brief look at them here:\nAlarm Phase \u2013 This is more commonly known as the flight or fight response. This is the body\u2019s instinctive answer to a challenging or dangerous situation. In this phase a number of biochemical and physical changes occur that put your body on full alert.\nResistance Phase \u2013 During the resistance phase your body will continue to fight the stressor long after the flight or fight response has worn off. Typical symptoms include lower sex drive, more frequent illness and feeling tired on a regular basis. This stage can continue for months or years.\nExhaustion Phase \u2013 In this phase there can be a complete collapse of body function or collapse of specific organs or systems. The body is no longer being able to mount proper stress response, it is simply too depleted. Typical symptoms include lack of sex drive, extreme tiredness, depression, weight gain, anxiety and apathy.\nCommon causes of adrenal fatigue\nWhile there can be numerous factors that can contribute to adrenal fatigue, some of the more common include:\nConsistent stress Poor sleep Chronic pain\nFood sensitivities Surgery Rheumatoid arthritis\nPoor diet Reliance on caffeine/energy drinks Exposure to pollution /toxins\nDealing with stress and adrenal fatigue\nThere are many ways to manage stress, such as making sure you get adequate sleep, eating whole foods, learning to meditate, avoiding processed foods and appropriate exercise (low to moderate intensity is a good option as high intensity can actually be taxing to the body for those with adrenal fatigue). While these are important factors to recovery, adaptogens are also of critical importance in recovering from adrenal fatigue.\nAdaptogens are natural substances that work with a person\u2019s body and help them adapt; most notably, to stress. Adaptogens have been used in both ancient Chinese and Ayurvedic medicines, and are usually plant based herbal medicines. Adaptogens are a natural ally in dealing with persistent stress and fatigue because they work with regulating important hormones. Adaptogens offer several other health benefits, such as:\n-Helping to support your body\u2019s ability to adapt to stressful situations more efficiently.\n-Supporting some of the physical and chemical effects of stress\n-Helping the body to mount a healthy response to stress.\n-Adaptogens help you rebound from exhaustion phase and or support the resistance phase\nAdaptogenic herbs help to lower stress responses in the body by lowering cortisol levels. (4, 5, 6). While the role of adaptogens is to help the body to adapt to stress, adaptogens all work a little differently. Some like ginseng or rhodiola work to energize the body, others like astragalus fortify the immune system against viral illness, while maca is beneficial for the libido. Since all adaptogens have their own unique properties it\u2019s important to find the one that\u2019s right for you. (This is where a discussion with your practitioner comes in handy). Adaptogens help to strengthen the body over time, so you may need to take them for a few weeks before you notice a difference.\nSome common adaptogens include:\nGinsengs (Asisan panax variety) -This herb from the araliaceae family is used to help the body to adapt to environmental influences and stressors. It has also been noted to improve cognitive function and memory. (7)\nAshwaganda-This herb from the nightshade family is a great option for those who are exhausted or highly stressed. This is not a good option during pregnancy. (8)\nRhodiola \u2013This adaptogen from the stone crop family is another wonderful option for anyone who is dealing with exhaustion or depression. It has proven effective at increasing energy and endurance. (9)\nLicorice\u2013This adaptogen from the legume family is well known for its benefits for sore throats, but it has numerous benefits as well, including helping with UTI\u2019s and exhaustion from adrenal fatigue. Discuss with your doctor before taking if you have high blood pressure and/or are taking medication for high blood pressure. (10)\nHoly basil \u2013This herb from the mint family is also known as tulsi, tulasi or sacred basil. This adaptogen has many studies to back its success in improving the body\u2019s response to stress. (11)\nEleuthero \u2013 This herb shows benefits for chronic fatigue and other illnesses. Discuss this option with your doctor as it can also affect high blood pressure. (12)\nHow to take adaptogens\nAdaptogens are available in many forms including teas, supplements and tinctures.\nFull adrenal recovery can take anywhere from 6-9 months for minor adrenal fatigue, and up to 2 years for severe adrenal fatigue. So the length of time they are taken and the dosage are best discussed with your practitioner, as they will vary based on your medical history, how long you have been dealing with fatigue and any pre-existing conditions.\nIn addition some herbs can be used for extended times while others would need to rotated or followed with a rest period. This is why it is best discussed with your practitioner.\nAs always look for certified organic products whenever possible. If using a tincture check the concentration of the extraction to verify potency, if using capsule look for a standardized extract. Your practitioner should offer recommendations for brands and potencies based on your health needs.\nIn addition, some simple ways to include adaptogens are to add them to your diet. Consider the following:\nHave a cup of herbal tea such as licorice, Tulsi tea (Holy Basil)\nAdd adaptogenic herbs to your soups or stews (remove them when the soup/ stew is done)\nAdd adaptogenic herbs such as maca or mushroom powder to your smoothie or dairy free milk drinks.\nAdrenal fatigue is considered a modern stress syndrome. Many people are living with chronic fatigue and may simply attribute it to a hectic lifestyle. While slowing down and adjusting your schedule may help, adrenal recovery also requires a commitment to healthy living and supplemental help when appropriate.\nIt\u2019s important to remember that this condition doesn\u2019t develop overnight. Adrenal fatigue can take months or years to show consistent symptoms in the body. As mentioned previously, full adrenal recovery can take anywhere from 6-9 months for minor adrenal fatigue, and up to 2 years for severe adrenal fatigue.\nBe patient. Make a commitment to your health. Find a practitioner who can work with you to develop a protocol based on your needs and medical history.\nOverview of Adrenal Function \u2013 Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders. (n.d.).

        "raw_content": "How NEFA Started\nIn the early 1900s, Edward Hall, was a natural crusader with a passion to educate our communities on the dangers of drug use and abuse. Edward was a visionary and a dynamic speaker. His energetic and outgoing personality led the way for the creation of an organization called the \"Temperance.\" The name was changed in 1924 from the \"Temperance\" to the \"Anti-Narcotic League of America.\" Edward started a grass roots educational program which he took on the road. He presented his drug education program for community groups and provided printed narcotic educational material for schools, libraries, and churches. Henry Hall, Edward's son, grew up watching and learning from his father. Henry developed the same passion and soon took a leading role in developing the next era of community narcotic education.\nIn 1954, the Anti-Narcotic League of America's name was changed to what is now known as the Narcotic Educational Foundation of America (NEFA). Henry developed partnerships with the Hollywood Motion Picture Industry and produced several narcotic educational films which were viewed across the country. Known Hollywood personalities of the time assisted in the production, acting and narration of these films. Some of the films titles were, \"Narcotics,\" \"The Judge and the Dope Peddler,\" and \"Assassins of Youth.\" Another film titled \"Dangerous Drugs\" was narrated by a famous actor of the time, known as Ronald Reagan.\nHenry like his father was an energetic and dynamic speaker. Henry proudly carried the torch his father lit many years ago and kept the narcotic education message alive. The success of the film the \"Judge and the Dope Peddler\" was re-written to become a one man presentation. For many years to follow, Henry presented this one man show across the nation. Because of Henry's notoriety in narcotic education he was invited in 1959 to attend the Federal Bureau of Narcotics training school in Washington D.C. On May 15, 1959, Henry Hall graduated with honors.\nNEFA's Partnership with the California Narcotic Officers Association\nHenry's home was in California and when the California Narcotic Officers Association (CNOA) started in 1964, Henry was one of its first supporting members. Henry was the oldest active CNOA member before his death at the age of 92. At the time of his death, Henry had spent his entire adult life educating the general public about the dangers of drugs and drug abuse.\nCNOA is a non-profit corporation dedicated to providing high quality training for law enforcement professionals for over 50 years. CNOA has become the largest non-profit training organization in California. CNOA members include: local, state, and federal officers, prosecutors, law enforcement professionals and other national and international associates.\nPrior to his death Henry Hall asked the California Narcotic Officers Association to oversee the Narcotic Educational Foundation of America and its Board of Trustees. Today, NEFA has turned into the community narcotic educational component of CNOA.\nNEFA's mission today has had little change since the day Edward Hall put his vision into reality. NEFA's mission is, \"To educate our communities and children on the dangers and consequences of drug abuse as well as to provide prevention information and tools to make right choices.\"\nWhere NEFA is Going Today\nToday, NEFA is managed by leaders who firmly believe drugs hurt and destroy lives. NEFA's purpose today is to assist our youth with difficult decisions that may impact the rest of their lives. Due to the ever-changing drug trends in America, providing up-to-date information has always been a priority, as well as a great challenge. NEFA's researchers continue to review the overwhelming amount of educational information available, and share the most dynamic and objective information with our members and the general public.\nNEFA now uses social media to help continue this valuable narcotic educational message while continuing to develop online education and resources that are frequently updated. NEFA has not forgotten about the value of face to face narcotic education. NEFA's professional training staff is currently creating new dynamic community programs to assist educators, parents, youth and others who want to learn about the current drug trends and drug dangers in our society today.\nIn memory of Henry Hall and his lifetime work, NEFA has initiated our \"Say No to Drugs\" Annual Video, Essay and Poster Contests for California youth between the ages of 10 through 14 in two categories- an individual or a recognized youth organization/educational group for the video contest ONLY. The Poster contest is for an individual California youth between the ages of 10-12. The Essay contest is for an individual California youth between the ages 12-14.\nNEFA is a proud partner with several likeminded organizations who share the same passion for narcotic education, prevention and right choices. Drug abuse education and prevention is a battle which should not be fought alone.\nYou can become an active partner with NEFA through facilitating community educational opportunities, by bringing the \"Say No To Drugs\" scholarship to your local schools or by giving any amount to help keep the mission alive for generations to come as NEFA has done since 1924. The future of our nation depends on our children and they depend on us to develop them so they have the tools and education to make right choices and become the next leaders of our nation.",

        "raw_content": "The Natty Bits\nHi, it\u2019s me again. This time I\u2019ll brag on myself a bit. I\u2019ve lived a long time and have done a lot of cool stuff. -I\u2019m an award-winning novelist who publishes, on average, one book a year.\nMy life has been devoted to the written word, whether poetry, fiction or journalism. I\u2019ve also dabbled in medical publishing and retired in 2007 from a career as editorial systems coordinator for a medical publishing firm. I now write full time.\nDuring the past thirty years, my work has appeared in several dozen varied publications. My interests seem to be somewhat eclectic, so this writing encompasses several genres and many forms. I am probably best known for my romance novels, such as Two Weeks in August or Lights of the Heart. Bella Books has ten of my romances in active circulation at present.\nOther books are with Regal Crest and with Desert Palm Press. I have fourteen recent books in total.\nI also write a great deal of speculative fiction and I cut my fiction teeth working with the SF/F/H focused Small Press Writers and Artists Organization. After SPWAO folded, I began working in journalism as a staff reporter and later, acting editor. I followed that career for almost a decade, winning two Virginia Press Association awards. I was also fortunate enough to earn fiction honors from Writer\u2019s Digest, Muse Magazine, Writers in Virginia, The Virginia Writing Club, Piedmont Writing Institute and Writers of the Future.\nAfter being offered a position with a firm that publishes medical journals, I quickly rose in the company and became a managing editor of two journals. When the company branched off into developing proprietary publishing software, I followed that path, eventually becoming the editorial systems coordinator for a larger scientific journal based in Washington DC.\nDuring this time, I worked actively with the Writers in Virginia Program and with area youth, teaching journalism and creative writing. I also taught under the Nelson County Summer Enrichment Program for many years and served five years as a judge in the Piedmont Area Reading Council\u2019s Young Authors Program.\nAfter joining the Golden Crown Literary Society, I worked on the GCLS board for about five years, as well as the boards of the Nelson County Education Foundation, VaNOW and Literacy Volunteers of America.\nAs a book editor, I edited several dozen fiction and nonfiction books, including the science fiction anthology All Aboard, the memoir Pieces of Pie: Surviving Love, by Pie Dumas, and Excuse Me, Your God Is Waiting by Michelle Prosser.\nNowadays, as I said, I write novels full time and have a monthly review column in Lesbian News. I live in beautiful Albuquerque, New Mexico, called The Land of Enchantment. It\u2019s very different from Virginia, being more desert than wet overgrowth but I have nested well and very much enjoy my new home. You can follow me and check out what else I\u2019m up to by using the links above. Just click on the social media label.\n\u00a9 2019 Nat Burns",

        "raw_content": "coffee is a family business for university of new orleans alum allan\nCoffee Is A Family Business For University of New Orleans Alum Allan Colley\nAllan Colley, president of Dupuy Storage and Forwarding, LLC, and his daughter Janet Colley Morse, who is vice president.\nAs a child, Allan Colley played among the towering stacks of coffee sacks that were piled along the wharf and later moved into his grandfather\u2019s warehouse located along the New Orleans waterfront. The bags, filled with imported green coffee beans from far-away countries, crowded the platform, Colley recalled.\n\u201cAll coffee in those days came in on the riverfront,\u201d he said. \u201cThere used to be these huge wharves, and as far as the eye could see you would see coffee.\u201d\nColley is president of Dupuy Storage and Forwarding, LLC, a position he has held for 34 years. His family has been a fixture in the coffee import business since his maternal grandfather, John Dupuy, founded Dupuy Storage in 1936.\nAfter returning home from fighting in World War I, Dupuy started importing coffee, which required frequent visits to Brazil, Colley said. About 15 years later, he turned to the storage industry, Colley said.\nDupuy, who was orphaned at a young age, was self-educated and loved to read, Colley said.\n\u201cMy mother always said he read voraciously,\u201d Colley said. \u201cHe read just about everything he could get his hands on. My mother said his favorite book was \u2018Moby Dick.\u2019 So his favorite book wasn\u2019t a business manual.\u201d\nHis grandfather, whom he never met, indirectly influenced his love of liberal arts via his mother who always praised the well-rounded nature of a liberal arts education, said Colley, who earned a bachelor\u2019s degree in philosophy from the University of New Orleans in 1971.\n\u201cShe always said a good liberal arts education would serve anybody well. I took that to heart,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen I reflect on it now, I think it was a good push, it\u2019s natural for me and where I\u2019m comfortable and I think it\u2019s served me very well in business. I have wonderful people who help me with accounting, and engineering and legal things, and that\u2019s their role. I like to think that my liberal arts education helps me in being more creative.\u201d\nThe nearly 83-year-old family business provides transportation and storage for commodities such as general cargo, coffee, tea and sugar. It also offers additional services including sampling, weighing, cleaning, blending, sizing, and unloading cargo.\nThe bags of coffee are now shipped in containers, instead of packed loose in cargo holds, and are no longer unloaded at the riverfront, Colley said. Instead, the containers of bags are trucked to the company\u2019s warehouses now located on Jourdan Road in New Orleans.\nAnd while the company still transports tons of coffee beans elsewhere, plenty of the beans from Dupuy\u2019s warehouses remain in the metro New Orleans area, and find their way into the many cups of coffee served in local cafes and restaurants.\n\u201cNew Orleans is a major roasting point for coffee, a lot of coffee is produced here by customers we all know of, like Folgers, Reily Foods, Community,\u201d Colley said. \u201cAnd small roasters, there\u2019s a bunch.\u201d\nSince its founding, the company known also as The Dupuy Group, has branched into other \u201cvalue-added services,\u201d Colley said and has expanded its storage and import business from New Orleans to several other port cities, including Houston and Charleston, South Carolina.\n\u201cWe are a regional company with a national reputation,\u201d Colley said. \u201cWe basically serve the Southeast, but are certainly known nationally. And I\u2019m very proud of that. We do business with people all over the world who are in the coffee business.\u201d\nThe company responded to customers by increasing its capacity to handle a variety of commodities and adding ultra-clean, modern facilities that service the ports of Charleston, Houston and Jacksonville, Fla., as well as New Orleans. It also offers services such as including bulk handling, blending and export consolidation.\n\u201cCoffee is big business, not just here in New Orleans but in other parts of the country,\u201d Colley said. \u201cWe used our experience and reputation to allow us to expand in places where we haven\u2019t done business before.\u201d\nColley, who has funded two professorships at the University of New Orleans named in honor of his grandfather and his mother, Janet Dupuy Colley, describes his alma mater as a \u201cbeacon.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m proud to be a graduate because I got a good education and had excellent teachers,\u201d Colley said. \u201cWhat it means for me now is that it\u2019s a beacon for the city. It\u2019s a bright spot for education in the city, a place where anyone can get a good education in very wide-ranging fields.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Postcard Of The Week : Naworth Castle\nPlucked out of the box at random this week is an early colour postcard of Naworth Castle in Cumbria. The card features a small vignette of (I think) Geoffrey Howard MP who was the owner of the house during the early years of the twentieth century (the house is still owned by the Howard family today). The postcard is from the collection of Great Uncle Fowler, who was living nearby in Longtown at the time, and whilst it has not been postally used, there is an inscription on the reverse. This says :\n\"Naworth Castle the resident of Howards, is a famous old castle not many miles of the border of England and Scotland and must have been very notorious in days 'o old of conflict with the two countries. Mr Geoffrey Howard was returned to Parliament for East Cumberland 1906\"\nOld postcards represent wonderful starting points for a whole variety of potential journeys : so today let us briefly explore the political context of the card. Fowler Beanland was at the height of his postcard collecting activity in 1906 so we can assume that he acquired the card and added the inscription shortly after the General Election which was held between the 12th of January and the 8th of February 1906 (elections in Britain were at the time held over a period of time in order to manage the logistics of the operation). The election resulted in a Liberal landslide and the new government of Henry Campbell-Bannerman was able to introduce a series of major political reforms that were to radically change British society. Under the guidance of a new generation of political heavyweights such as David Lloyd-George, the new Government eventually forced through laws which saw the introduction of pensions, unemployment benefits and rudimentary health insurance.\nDespite his somewhat severe look and his own personal castle, Geoffrey Howard was one of the new generation of reforming Liberal MPs. He remained a Member of Parliament - with a couple of short breaks - until 1924 and, for a brief period in 1910, he served as a Parliamentary Private Secretary to the then Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith. Much of his work must have been behind the scenes in the smoke-filled corridors of power as there are relatively few of his parliamentary speeches recorded in Hansard. What there are, tend to be limited to such things as campaigns in support of the provision of Temperance Rooms in army barracks!\nNaworth Castle is still standing today. If it seems familiar it may be because it has been widely used as a location for film and television productions. These days, you can visit it, have your wedding there, or host a banquet within its ancient walls. You can also make use of the wonders of Google Earth and virtually drive along the little country lane that leads from the main A69 road and passes the gates to the castle. There are worse ways to spend a cold and rainy day.\nSepia Saturday : Enoch In Cuttlefish Sepia\nI know that this is a photograph I have used on the blog before, but when I used it last, I converted it into a rather cold grey-scale image. So today I thought I would use it again, but in all its sepia glory. It shows my paternal grandfather Enoch Burnett, with his donkey and cart and his set of ladders in the early 1900s. I am not sure of the exact date : the inscription on the cart proudly declares that the business was \"Established 1906\" and the photograph was certainly taken before the Great War. I have written about Enoch before (see A Family Six Pack Part 2 : Enoch Burnett). He was the stuff of family legends: the one member of the family of whom tales were told long after he had died (in 1950). During the summer he worked as a window cleaner and during the winter - when the weather was bad and people in Bradford weren't bothered if they could see out of their windows or not - he traded as a watch and clock repairer. Although I cannot remember meeting Enoch (I was only two years old when he died), I can remember visiting my grandmother and discovering, in her little back-to-back house in Bradford, a treasure house of old long-case clocks - presumably goods brought in for repair and never collected.\nThe picture is one of my favourite family photographs and I don't need too much of an excuse to dust it off and bring it out again : but the excuse is that I wanted to repeat the short description of the sepia toning process I gave when we first started Sepia Saturday. The term \"sepia\" was originally given to a brown pigment used by artists which was derived from the ink sack of the Common European Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis). When, in the late nineteenth century, a chemical process was developed which converted any remaining metallic silver in photographic prints, to a sulphide - which is much more resistant to breakdown over time and which produced a brown-grey tone - it was called sepia toning. Sepia prints are more resistant to fading and chemical decomposition which is why most of the early prints we can still see are sepia toned ones. By the second decade of the twentieth century, photographic processing had advanced and chemicals were available which could reduce the amount of fading for normal grey-scale prints and sepia toning was used less and less. Eventually it became a specialist technique used to make photographs appear old rather than to preserve them.\nYour photographs don't have to be in sepia to become part of the Sepia Saturday project : just old and soaked in memories. To see other sepia posts this week, go over to the Sepia Saturday blog. Sepia Saturday will return on Saturday April 10th.\nLabels: SS\nThis And That And Oughtibridge\nA number of people seemed to think that the elderly, beer-swilling gent in the Pilsner Urquell sign featured in yesterday's post resembled me. To disprove such a contention for once and for all, I am featuring a new version of the sign with my face superimposed. There you go, we don't look a bit alike do we? Today is one of those \"This And That ..\" posts. I used to call this series \"Accumulated Fluff At The Bottom Of The Drawer Of My Subconscious Mind\", but I have realised that life is too short.\nFUNERALS : Much of my day will be taken up with going to a funeral (an elderly ex-colleague of the Good Lady Wife). The local retail sector needs to be well prepared for I have discovered that, at this stage in my life, funerals make me acquisitive. I suppose it is the way funerals remind you that life is finite. Whatever the philosophical cause of the phenomena, I tend to return from funerals with fond memories of the departed and a carefully wrapped parcel or two.\nOBJECTS FALLING FROM THE SKY : The local news yesterday featured a chap from the other side of Huddersfield who has made a name for himself as an amateur space photographer. He attaches a digital camera to a weather balloon and sends it up into the stratosphere taking snaps of the earth below. Once its gone up 20 miles or so the balloon bursts and the camera falls back to earth. My local space explorer tracks it with a radio device, rescues the camera and plans his next mission. It sounds a fine idea, and I am sure it is - as long as you are not in the path of the rapidly descending Nikon Coolpix. If you happen to be in these parts today and see someone walking a dog whilst carrying a stoutly reinforced umbrella, stop and say hello.\nTIME DILATION AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT : If you do happen to be in these parts why not stop off at the Rock Tavern, Elland, this evening for the weekly pub quiz. I will be setting the questions - the \"reward\" for winning last week - and therefore you can guarantee that none of them will be unduly cryptic or abstruse! I have avoided the temptation of taking up the suggestion of my fellow-blogger Chairman Bill and incorporating the scientific questions he posed in his blog yesterday, one of which was \"how long does it take for a photon emitted from the sun to reach earth? I won't give the answer away - you might want to ponder the conundrum whilst enjoying your morning coffee - but it has something to do with time dilation and the speed of light.\nAND SO TO OUGHTIBRIDGE : The other day I did a vintage postcard post featuring a card addressed to Fred Beckett in Worksop. As with all such cards, all you have is a short message from which to try to put together the story of the people who both sent and received the card. Normally, a good measure of imagination is required. However, if you have readers and fellow bloggers who are genealogical geniuses you just sit back and wait for the full story to emerge. Jamagenie on her Saturday's Child blog took the postcard message and breathed life into it. Check her post out to read the full story. Strangely enough it involves a small South Yorkshire village called Oughtibridge (isn't it a wonderful name) which I know quite well and which has a fine pub I have intended to visit for some time. When I do eventually get there I will raise a glass to good old Fred Beckett.\nANNOUNCEMENTS : The list of Sepia Saturday participants is up on the Sepia Saturday blog. These days most people post their link after they have put their Sepia Saturday post up (thereby including a link to the post rather than the blog) so don't be put off if there don't seem to be many names up yet. Next week will take us into Easter and therefore there will be no Sepia Saturday on Saturday 3rd April. Easter also means that towards the end of next week my posts will be more sporadic but I will return after Easter with, hopefully, a new look to the blog.\nTheme Thursday : Sign\nIf ever there was a Thursday Theme that called for a minimum of words and a maximum of images it is this one. So here is a small selection of signs that have appealed to me and my camera over the years.\nI spotted this sign in Prague about 18 months ago. It seems to sum up my attitude to beer\nSome politicians do seem to have the most unfortunate names. Spotted in Alsace earlier this month.\nTaken in St Lucia last month, the sign is strong on prohibitions. Can we assume that bare fronts are allowed?\nThe old ones are the best ones. I took this in Elland, West Yorkshire 40 or so years ago.\nSee signs of life elsewhere by going to the Theme Thursday Blog\nFederalism, Blogging And Scarlet Fever\nI accept that there can be few things more introspective, more conducive to deep navel-gazing, and more potentially boring than blogging about blogging : but here I go again. Those who have read the last fourteen chapters of my forthcoming book \"In Search Of A New Paradigm in Contextually Integrated and Networked Proclamations\" will know where I have got to in my search for an answer to the age-old question facing us all : to consolidate or follow the advice of Chairman Mao and \"let a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred types of blog contend\". I was swinging very much in the direction of the consolidation school when I decided to investigate the counter-claims of the Federalists : and they have certainly made me pause for thought.\nI always think that the three greatest things given to the world by the United States of America and its diverse and wonderful people are (1) popular music; (2) innovative communications; and (3) federalism. I shouldn't have to say anything in support of my first choice being included in the list, the chances are we all support the nomination every time we hum a tune. As for innovative communications, all you need to do is imagine what that great British invention the World Wide Web would have been like if we had developed it on our own! Things like Google, Blogger and Facebook can only be American and - however annoyed we get with them - I believe they rank as great human achievements. Which leaves me with federalism. Now is not the place to venture into the political significance of the federalist writings of the great American pioneers - let it merely be said that we in Europe are still trying to learn the lessons 250 years later.\nIf we apply federalist principles to blogging what we have is a series of separate and quasi-independent blogs all gathered together within a common federalist framework. I can therefore keep Fat Dog, Pint of Bitter, and Daily Photo as separate States within the cultural hegemony of News From Nowhere. It is an exciting thought, I am sure you will all agree. I will ponder on it further and report my findings in the draft of Chapter 16.\nBy way of diversion, let me conclude with a completely unrelated quotation. Yesterday, I found myself with a couple of hours to spare in Bradford Central Library. In the spirit of serendipity, I pulled a book at random from the shelves of the Reference Library and started to read. It was a collection of the reports of the \"Female Sanitary Inspector\" for Bradford - Miss C F Stephens - to the Health Committee of Bradford Corporation. I quote from her report dated 31st December 1902 in which she tells of a visit to one typical slum in what, at the time, must have been one of the richest cities in the world.\n\u201cFourteen occupants in a three-roomed house. Bedroom : 1334 cubic feet, occupied by seven persons, equalling six adults. Bedroom : 810 cubic feet, occupied by three adults. The parents and youngest two children slept downstairs. The second time I visited this house the parents were in bed, and there were nine other members of the family in the room. In this case the woman resolutely refuses to allow a window to be opened, \u201cfor\u201d, she says, \u201cthat is how scarlet fever comes into the house\u201d. Meanwhile the filth of the house and the impure air, added to the gross overcrowding, render it a perpetual wonder that the whole family are not the victims of some loathsome disease. These people are now under Notice to abate the nuisance, as they declined to do so without pressure\u201d.\nIf nothing else, it makes you think and helps you get things in perspective. As I say, it is completely unrelated to the first part of this post. But now I come to think about it, it raises the question of how we can open the windows of our blogs to fresh ideas without risking the dangers of scarlet fever. I obviously need to lock myself up in a dark room and do some thinking.\nPostcards From Nowhere : A Girl-Less Gibson\nEach week I take a random dip into my collection of vintage postcards and investigate what comes out.\nCharles Dana Gibson (1867 \u2013 1944) was an American graphic artist whose work was widely published in books and magazines in the late nineteeth and early twentieth century. As this period coincided with the golden age of postcard collecting, his pen and ink sketches were also a popular subject for postcards. He is perhaps most famous for his depiction of the stylized, wealthy and glamorous new-century woman that became known as a \"Gibson Girl\". The style and look is said to have been based on that of his wife Irene Langhorne and her sister Nancy (who would later marry Waldorf Astor and - as Lady Astor - become the first woman to become a member of the British Houses of Parliament). As an early practitioner of the craft of syndication - selling your work to a whole range of parallel publications - Gibson became one of the most successful illustrators of the time, made a fortune, bought an island in Maine, and also bought Life Magazine.\nMy Gibson postcard does not, unfortunately, feature any Gibson Girls. The somewhat risqu\u00e9 caption on the face of the card below the illustration reads \"Mr. Meeker doesn't object so much to his wife's entertainments as he does to the way she uses his room for the gentlemen's things\". There is neither a catalogue number nor a publisher listed on the card. It was postally used in what looks like November 1903 and sent to Mr F Beckett of 48, Ryton Street, Worksop. The message opens \"Dear Fred\" and appears to come from his mother. As far as I have been able to interpret it, the message is as follows:\n\"Dear Fred. Hope you got home safe. Send me a Programme of the Bazaar. When they are out I will do you something for it. With love from Mother\"\nThe card was posted in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire which is a relatively short train journey away from Worksop. It would appear that Fred had been to visit his mother. The \"when they are out\" phrase leads me to think that his mother might have been in service as a cook or housekeeper, this being the golden age of not only postcards but also of domestic servants. But what was the bazaar and who was Fred? Answers on a postcard please. Send them to me.\nLabels: PFN\nFat Dog To The Big Apple : Week 57 Somewhere To Cape Arago\nOne of the advantages of my exercise in consolidation is that it gives me the opportunity to revisit some of my more neglected blogs and attempt to bring them up to date. One such blog is \"Fat Dog To The Big Apple\". For those unfamiliar with this ridiculous project, let me give you a bit of background. I started the blog three years ago as an exercise in virtual reality, an experiment to see how accurately you could visit places using nothing but the power of the internet and the wonders of resources such as Google Earth. The idea was that I would take my dog Amy on a walk from Los Angeles to New York. We would actually do the walking, but it would be on the wet and grey streets of West Yorkshire. Each week we would transfer the miles walked to our virtual trans-continental walk from the Pacific to the Atlantic. We would use the full resources of the web to explore the places we passed through and report on the project via weekly \"postcards\" to the blog. Since last November we have been going nowhere, so it is time to restart. If I go ahead with my Grand Blog Consolidation plans I will send the weekly post to this blog in future : but until I make a final decision I will post to both blogs.\nClick on the postcard to enlarge it so that you can read it\nLabels: FDBA\nGreat Yorkshire Pubs 32 : The Whitehall Hotel, Hipperholme\nThe Whitehall Hotel, Leeds Road, Hipperholme, Halifax HX3 8NA Tel : O1422 202088\nStep over the threshold of the Whitehall Hotel in Hipperholme on some quiet lunchtime and you feel as though you are intruding on someone's private grief. It is not an unusual feeling in these days when the majority of beer sales are delivered via the supermarket check-out rather than the polished brass hand-pump. Don't let it put you off calling by : the Whitehall is a fine pub of a type that is rapidly vanishing from the villages and townships of Britain. But be prepared for a chaser of melancholy with your lunchtime pint.\nThe building dates from late eighteenth century and is currently Grade II listed. It probably took its name from the nearby White Hall House, but it is the pub which itself gave its name to the Leeds Whitehall Road which for much of the last two hundred years has been the main thoroughfare between Halifax and Leeds. In the 1830s the Inn provided one of the stops for the regular stagecoach service between the two West Yorkshire towns : a service which had the surprisingly modern name of the \"Red Rover\". A picture exists of the interior of the Inn at the turn of the nineteenth century and from my own personal observations it appears that little has changed other than some of the regulars depicted in the earlier picture no longer seem to be attending. The ring hanging from the ceiling is part of a once-popular bar room game called \"ringing the bull\" in which a ring suspended from the ceiling would be swung to try and connect with a hook hung on a wall, often on the end of a bull's horn.\nToday the ring and the bull's horn are long gone but you still half expect the Dickensian gentleman with the stretched waistcoat to make his way back from the toilets (could that be his jacket which is still hanging from the bar?). The decor is strongly influenced by tobacco and although in the two years since smoking in public was outlawed the aroma has drifted away, the tint still remains. I sometimes feel that you should be able to make out a special case for the current anti-smoking laws to be annulled in certain premises in order to maintain historical authenticity. The Whitehall Hotel could serve as a test-bed for such an innovative approach : the low ceilings and the mullioned windows set in the thick stone walls cry out for a patina of Old Shag.\nI had a pint of Copper Dragon Golden Pippin (3.9% ABV) which was probably historically an inappropriate choice - it should have been something old and dark and tasting vaguely of creosote. The Golden Pippin was none of these things and was rather refreshing. This goes to show that even I am willing to embrace modernity. Once suitably fortified by whatever your choice of beverage might be, and as you leave the pub and make your careful way across the busy main road, you might want to cast a glance back at the roofline of the pub. Is that a cat creeping along the ridge tiles? It has been frozen in the same position for many a year now - proof if ever it was needed that things move slowly around these parts.\nLabels: GYP\nSepia Saturday : Three Men On A Plane\nYou know you are approaching your sell-by date when you discover that you are the subject of one of your own Sepia Saturday postings. Why the above photograph - which shows my brother Roger, myself, and my father at some funfair or other - should be sepia I don't know. It must have been taken about 1950 or 1951, long after the introduction of photographic paper coatings which no longer degraded over time to give the familiar sepia shades. I suspect that the monochrome print had been left in the sun for too long and the fading process just took the edge off the blacks.\nIt must have been taken in either Bridlington (on the east coast of England) or New Brighton (on the west coast). For some reason we would always alternate our family holidays between these two resorts - one year staying at a boarding house in Wellington Road, New Brighton, the next at a boarding house in New Burlington Road, Bridlington. Both streets still exist and I have just \"visited\" them using Google Earth and I am struck by how little seems to have changed - other than the fact that all the houses are now private residences.\nMy brother is five years older than me and therefore must have been about seven or eight when this picture was taken. My father died in 2002 when he was 91 (I wrote about him last year in my Family Six Pack series). Roger went on to become an artist and a sculptor and he now lives on the Caribbean island of Dominica. And as for the cute little chap in the middle? He went on to do a little harmless blogging.\nYou can take a look at the other Sepia Saturday posts by visiting the Sepia Saturday Blog. Most people now tend to add their link after they have posted so you may want to delay the start of your tour until all the links are up which should be by the end of Saturday.\nI was musing on this problem yesterday whilst I took Amy The Dog for a springtime walk along the banks of the Calder and Hebble Navigation Canal just down the road in Brighouse. The canal is a grand old piece of industrial archeology, over 250 years old and brimming with history. The stone markers (above) that record the distance to the next lock deserve to be preserved behind a glass case in a museum, but - I am glad to say - are not.\nAnd there is the sheer tranquility of a place where a rich vein of nature intrudes into the original testbed of the industrial revolution. My third picture shows the lock-keepers cottage at Ganny Lock a few miles east of Brighouse. In the background you can just make out a featureless concrete warehouse defiling the rustic romance of the scene.\nLabels: ABP\nTheme Thursday - Scanning My Breakfast\nThis is going to be a relatively short post - I'm hungry and I want my breakfast. The reason I haven't had my breakfast already is because I decided to be clever today and to scan it as my Theme Thursday post. Silly idea really. First of all there is the tea and the orange juice. The only way you can scan that is in the appropriate receptacles and all you finish up with is a passing hint of orange through the glass bottom (you will have to take my word for it about the tea in the cup).\nAnd then there was the toast - load of trouble that. If you put it on the scanner glass whilst it is still hot the whole thing steams up and you can't get a clear image. Wait until it is cold and not only do you have cold toast to look forward to, but toast which has by then had that weird electric blue scanning beam passing over it a couple of times. So I ditched the toast and turned to the tea only to discover that, by now, it had gone cold. So I ditched the tea and took comfort in the orange juice only to tip the whole bloody thing over on my desk. I have managed to mop it up but I have decided to abandon the exercise.\nIn place of my scanned breakfast let me give you a very short trailer publicising one of my favourite CD's of recent years, Stacey Kent's \"Breakfast on the Morning Tram\". There is a verse or two from the title song hidden away in this Blue Note clip.\nTo discover whether other bloggers had more success interpreting the Theme Thursday subject, take a look at the Theme Thursday blog.\nPostcards From Nowhere : To my son Clement\nEach week I try to pull out a random card from the vintage postcards collected by my Great Uncle Fowler and look at it in a little more detail. This week the postcard is a French World War I propaganda card. The words under the picture of four soldiers say \"Unissons nos efforts dans la Fraternite, Qui combat noblement garde sa liberte\" which, I guess, mean something like \"Through our united efforts in brotherhood, we will fight to nobly defend our freedom\" (if you have a more accurate translation please let me have it). All that is written on the back is \"From your Father to my Son Clement\" I don't know of any Clement's in my family so I am not sure how it came to be in Fowler Beanland's collection. But there is something strangely touching about those few brief words written on the back. It makes you want to weep for the war, weep for the death and destruction and weep for a time when father and son could only express their love through such stilted phrases\nSo What's This Blogging Thing Then?\nI am sure we are all well used to the question. \"What's all this blogging thing then?\" The questioner normally has a slightly incredulous look about them, unsure as to why you should list blogging as a pastime rather than some more suitable distraction such as dried flower arranging or amateur oxyacetylene welding. Blogging is often perceived as a form of latent exhibitionism for the functionally challenged, involving little else other than a list of what people might have had for their breakfast or what TV soaps they might be watching. Over the last 48 hours or so I have tried to explain the appeal of blogging to a couple of friends but I feel that I have fallen short of doing it justice. I have tried to enthuse about the variety of subjects and views you are exposed to and the variety of forms blogging can take. I have explained how some bloggers will use prose others poetry, some art, others photography. I have suggested that a blog is more like a self-published magazine than a catalogue of daily diary entries. I have tried to convey the richness and diversity of the world of blogging but have been left with the fear that my listeners still see blogging as a symptom of having too much time on your hands. It is a pity that I can't seem to get over the seriousness of blogging and the fact that it is up there with lace doily making as an art form. Had the technology been available, Shakespeare would probably have blogged rather than written all those plays. In many ways, Dickens did blog even though the technology wasn't available. We bloggers are at the cutting edge of a creative and artistic tsunami and it is just a shame that other people don't recognise this.\nWell, having got that out of the way, let me tell you what I was doing yesterday. I had half a croissant and some Frosties for breakfast and then took a friend to Wakefield Station to catch her train. Then I had lunch with the Marsden Mafia Dining Club and washed the rather fine rump steak down with a pint or two-and-a-half of Black Sheep bitter. After that I had a lie down before watching the latest episodes of Coronation Street. ......\nSepia Saturday : Clovelly Unchanged\nThere are two things different about my Sepia Saturday photograph this week (three if you want to be pedantic and point out that it is monochrome rather than sepia). First it is of a place rather than a person. The place is the fishing village of Clovelly in Devon. It was taken by my father in the mid-thirties (either 1935 or 1936 I would guess) whilst he and my mother were on a motorcycling touring holiday in the south-west of England. In those pre-digital days, film and processing cost money and photographic subjects were normally limited to family and friends. If you wanted a picture of a pretty view, there were plenty of cheap postcards available, Occasionally, however, a view would have been so stunning that Great Uncle George would be ignored as the camera focussed on the background rather than the foreground. A visit to the near perfect fishing village of Clovelly where the fishing boats were dragged up the sloping beach must have been one such occasion.\nThe second difference with this particular picture is that it highlights constancy rather than change. Normally with Sepia Saturday pictures we are drawn to the changes : changes in clothing, changes in manner, changes in landscape. We don't need the creased corners nor the sepia toning to tell us the picture is old - it is obvious for all to see. But with the above photograph we need to search more carefully for signs of the passage of time. I have managed to locate a photograph of the same scene taken within the last few years and it is easy to see how little has changed\nThe great Sepia Saturday pictures tell the story of people and their lives. They tell of challenges and hardship and change. But occasionally it is worth remembering that some things change at a much slower pace : the beach, the boats and the cottages of Clovelly are, thank goodness, a case in point.\nVisit the Sepia Saturday Blog to find links to the other people taking part in Sepia Saturday this week\nTheme Thursday : Hats\nThere was a character in a book I once read (I have long forgotten the title, the author or, indeed, the plot) who, when asked how on earth he knew whether he was coming or going, replied that he just had a look to see which way his hat was pointing. I feel a bit like that this week : except that I fancy I might have my hat on the wrong way around. Following the recent long holiday and the even more recent trip to France, I am having difficulty getting back into a routine. I don't know whether I am coming or going. I have managed to get a few blog posts up, but I am way behind on my visiting and I suspect that there is such a back-log of posts I need to read that my best hope is to simply wipe the slate clean and start afresh. If I have missed out great chapters in the colourful lives of my blogging friends, I apologise : I will carry on reading the tales as they unfold and fill the missing bits in with my imagination.\nIt is Theme Thursday and the subject this week is hats. I was tempted to let TT pass this week in order to carry out further research as to whether I was coming or going, but once I saw the theme I had to join in. Hats are a great favourite of mine on both an aesthetic and a practical level. Aesthetically, and with the possible exception of a macaw, nothing sits better on the top of a man's head than a good hat. How I wish that I could have been around in the days when a man could wear a decent hat without being accused of being dissolute : in the days when the Knapp-Felt Hat Company could introduce a new hat every month. On a practical level I do wear hats on many occasions in order to protect my precious cochlear implant from the ravages of the English climate. When you are walking around with a few thousand pounds of microscopic computer equipment stuck on the outside of your skull, it is always wise to provide it with as much protection as possible, whether it makes you appear rakish or not.\nThe top picture shows a selection of my hats. The one third from the left served me well during the recent visit to France as this final picture of myself and the Good Lady Wife, taken in Strasbourg, shows.\nRead how other people have interpreted this week's theme by visiting the Theme Thursday Blog. Sepia Saturday will be running again this week and if you would like to participate you can sign up over at the Sepia Saturday Blog. Now it is time that I started visiting a few of my blogging friends before they abandon me for ever. As Bob Dylan once nearly said, \"You don't need a weatherman to know which way your hat blows\"\nExperiencing Boxes\nSeveral people responded to my last post with questions : let me try and answer a few of them. Willow asked for more information about my visit to the Tate Modern. Because we spent so long looking around the Courtauld Gallery, we arrived at the Tate Modern about 45 minutes before it closed for the day. I could, however, put forward a reasonable argument for having compulsory limitations on the amount of time you are allowed to spend in an art gallery at any one time. A temporal sword of Damocles not only concentrates the mind, but also stops you from trying to cram too much in thereby risking visual indigestion. So all we had time to do was to take in the breathtaking building - for those not familiar with it, the Tate Modern is located in the old Bankside Power Station - and visit the wonderful Miroslaw Balka \"Box of Darkness\" installation. The installation is a gigantic grey steel structure which stands in splendid isolation in the Turbine Hall. You can walk up a featureless steel ramp into the inside which is totally light-less. As you enter a little light filters in from the open entrance, but as you move further down the structure the darkness is almost physically palpable. You can't set foot in the structure without being either moved or frightened or both. It is no coincidence that the artist Miroslaw Balka is Polish and Poland was the location of the killing camps of Treblinka or Auschwitz with their steel cattle trucks and death-black gas chambers. I thought it was a massively inspiring piece of art, one well worth experiencing.\nBaino asked about suggestions for places to visit in France. Let me first of all stress that I am no expert on the country and there are many parts of it that I have yet to visit, but it was my first visit to the east of the country and I was very impressed. Obviously there is a very significant Germanic influence - as John suggested in his comment, this area has been French, German and French again in less than 100 years - and in some ways it has more in common with Rhineland than the rest of France. Strasbourg was visually stunning, with its old half-timbered houses and warehouses looking like rows of pastel-shaded boxes strung out along the riverside. Again, it is well worth experiencing.\nSeveral people commented on my picture of the castle (Chateau De Saint-Ulrich, Ribeauville). It was not the only castle we visited whilst we were away, on Friday we went to the almost unbelievable Chateau Du Haut-Koenigsbourg. It differs from the other Alsace castles in that it has been fully restored to what it must have been like in the seventeenth and eighteenth century. The restoration was carried out under the direction of Emperor Wilhelm II whilst it was under German control at the very start of the twentieth century. It stands high above the Alsatian plain like an impregnable fortified box. We visited it on a freezing cold day in early March and it was almost deserted. The arctic winds that seemed to penetrate the very stonework just added to the authenticity. And again, I would thoroughly recommend the experience.\nAlsace Interlude\nI am back following a most delightful few days spent in Alsace, Eastern France. It might have started as an excursion to see a Leonard Cohen concert - which, as I mentioned in my last post, was cancelled when the Sainted One fell off his exercise treadmill - but it finished up as a most successful exercise in cramming as much pleasure into five days as possible. There was a day spent in London which was evenly balanced between visits to public galleries (The Courtauld and the Tate Modern) and galleried pubs (the splendid George Inn in Southwark and several others to make up the set). There was a delightful day and a half spent in the small town of Ribeauville where we stayed at the almost unbelievable Inn pictured above, from where I climbed high into the hills to the even more unbelievable ruined castle pictured below. And there was a further delightful day and a half spent in the magnificent city of Strasbourg with its massive cathedral, ancient buildings and specially organised picturesque snowfall.\nMany, many great memories and a few half-decent photographs. Thanks to Tim and Will for being such amusing, eloquent and intelligent hosts and, of course, to Chrissy for being such a delightful travelling companion. There will, I am sure, be other chances to see and hear Leonard, but I wouldn't have missed my trip to Alsace for the half the perfect world.\nFirst We Take Manhattan ....\nIt appeared to be a perfect confluence of fortune. My good friend Chrissy and I had long been great fans of the sainted Leonard Cohen. Leonard was due to perform a rare European concert in Strasbourg, France on Friday 5th March. Chrissy's eldest son Tim was spending a year in France as a teaching assistant as part of his degree in modern languages and was based in a small town about fifty miles from Strasbourg. We could kill two birds on a wire with one stone, and so a trip was planned which would take in Chrissy's second son Will, who is at University in London, a Eurostar journey to Strasbourg, a chance to see Tim, a chance to visit Strasbourg, and a chance to hear the sainted Leonard. But the best laid plans ... and all that. Leonard has suffered a sports-related injury and had been ordered to rest up for a few months and the concert is postponed until September. A case of \"first we take Manhattan, then we slip and fall on the way to Berlin\".\nBut it matters not : Chrissy, the Good Lady Wife, and myself are still going on our trip. We will get the opportunity to visit some galleries - and some good pubs - in London and to explore Strasbourg and Alsace. And we will get the chance to meet up with both Will and Tim. We set out first thing Wednesday morning so I will miss out on both Theme Thursday and Sepia Saturday this week. However, the Linky list for Sepia Saturday 14 is already up so make sure you sign-up and I can catch up on all the posts on my return next Sunday.\nPlease excuse my lack of posts this week and my tardiness in my visits to your blogs. I will be back soon, but in the meantime, so long Marianne .... and everyone else.\nFat Dog To The Big Apple : Week 57 Somewhere To Ca...\nGreat Yorkshire Pubs 32 : The Whitehall Hotel, Hip...\nSearching For Balance On A Canal Towpath And Disco...",

        "raw_content": "Freshman quarterback Sam Hartman has another solid performance in his second career start\nSeptember 8, 2018 The Associated Press Article, College Football, Sports\nWake Forest punt returner Greg Dortch runs back a punt for a touchdown in a game against Towson earlier this season (AP Photo/Nell Redmond)\nWINSTON-SALEM \u2014 After missing the final five games last year, Greg Dortch is picking up right where he left off.\nDortch returned two punts for touchdowns and caught a scoring pass, and Wake Forest beat FCS Towson 51-20 in its home opener on Saturday.\nDortch returned punts 60 and 70 yards for touchdowns in the second quarter and hauled in an 8-yard touchdown reception. He finished with 310 all-purpose yards \u2014 94 receiving, 85 on kick returns and 131 on punt returns \u2014 and became the first Wake Forest player with four consecutive games of at least 200 all-purpose yards.\n\u201cI may be biased, I think he\u2019s the most exciting player in college football,\u201d said wide receiver Alex Bachman, who made a one-handed touchdown grab in the first quarter. \u201cEvery time he touches the ball there\u2019s a chance something spectacular is going to happen.\u201d\nDortch had 258 all-purpose yards against Georgia Tech and 216 against Louisville in his final two games last year before suffering a season-ending abdominal injury. He picked right back up with 200 yards in the season opener against Tulane last week before his latest outburst.\nHis 310 all-purpose yards were the third-most in a game in school history, and the punt return touchdowns were the first special teams scores of his career.\n\u201cOur first game against Tulane I had one where I had a little seam and got tackled by like the last guy and it just irked me all week,\u201d Dortch said. \u201cOur special teams coach said, \u2018This week, we\u2019re going to get one.\u2019 We had our returns set up all week and we did it perfectly today.\u201d\nFreshman quarterback Sam Hartman passed for 242 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 64 yards and a score for the Demon Deacons (2-0). He threw a 10-yard touchdown to Bachman on the Wake Forest\u2019s opening drive and the touchdown to Dortch on the second as the Demon Deacons never trailed.\nTom Flacco, younger brother of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, passed for 345 yards and three touchdowns for Towson.\nFlacco kept the Tigers competitive briefly, responding to each of Hartman\u2019s scores with touchdown passes of his own to make it 14-14 at the end of the first quarter.\nBut Hartman ran in a 14-yard touchdown on the third play of the second quarter to put Wake Forest up for good, and Dortch put it away with his two electrifying returns.\n\u201cI\u2019m disappointed,\u201d Towson coach Rob Ambrose said. \u201cI thought there were a lot of good takeaways against a tough opponent for us, but we can\u2019t give up two punt returns. Those are momentum killers.\u201d\nDortsh\u2019s first punt return touchdown came after fellow wide receiver Bachman half-jokingly gave him a directive on the sideline.\n\u201cI told him I needed a quick breather, I wasn\u2019t ready to go back out yet,\u201d Bachman said. \u201cSo I told him to take one to the house. And then he did.\u201d\nNOT ALL SUNSHINE AND RAINBOWS\nOne thing Wake Forest needs to fix is its ball security before hitting the meat of its schedule.\nAfter throwing an interception in their own territory and losing a fumble on the Towson 2-yard-line, the Demon Deacons have five turnovers in two games after committing just 13 turnovers all of last year.\n\u201cIf we keep turning the ball over like we are now we\u2019re going to lose games,\u201d Clawson said. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to be able to do that starting Thursday night (against Boston College).\u201d\nTowson: The addition of Flacco, a graduate transfer from Rutgers, should be a major boon for the Tigers. Flacco completed 35 of 51 passes and showed he still has the talent to put up big numbers against FBS competition, a promising sign for Towson\u2019s games to come against lower-tier FCS foes. By virtue of his pedigree, Flacco gives the Tigers the quarterback edge in almost every game they will play the rest of the season.\nWake Forest: Hartman became the Demon Deacons\u2019 quarterback only after projected starter Kendall Hinton was suspended three games for violating team rules, but the true freshman may not give the job back. After passing for 378 yards in the season opener \u2014 most ever by a Wake Forest quarterback in his first career start \u2014 Hartman delivered another sharp passing performance and showed off his mobility with three rushes of at least 10 yards. He now has 778 total yards and five total touchdowns in his first two career starts and is cementing a grip on the starting job.\nTowson: At Villanova on Sept. 15.\nWake Forest: Hosts Boston College on Thursday\nGreg Dortch\nSlowing reigning Heisman winner Jackson a tall task for Tar Heels\nCHAPEL HILL \u2014 North Carolina\u2019s mistake-prone defense made California\u2019s Ross Bowers, a quarterback making his first college start, look like a Heisman Trophy candidate in its season opening loss to the Golden Bears on Saturday.

        "raw_content": "Woods, who returned in January after missing nearly the entire previous two years with a debilitating back injury, held a three-shot advantage heading into the final round.\nThe 42-year-old Woods won the Tour Championship event at East Lake, Georgia, USA today by two shots over Billy Horschel.\nThe American icon is convinced fellow American Woods is good enough to target another four or five majors over the next decade after ending his five-year title drought in stunning style to lift the Tour Championship on Sunday.\n\"I spent 25 years playing professional golf with Tiger Woods on the scene, and any time he does anything great, that's a story\".\n\"The 80 mark is a big number\", he added. \"It was neat to be part of the team, to be a part of helping the guys in any way I possibly could to make them feel comfortable, to get them into the right circumstances to allow them to play their best golf\".\nAs Woods returns to the winners' circle on the PGA Tour, it's revived hopes that he can challenge again at a Major and attempt to catch Jack Nicklaus 18 Majors record anew. I just didn't know whether this would ever happen again. Not only did we see Woods walk up the 18th fairway swarmed by thousands of people, but we also saw someone whose personal win was a win for golf overall. That was when he was regularly winning multiple times every season, compiling trophies at a rate never before seen in golf.\n\"You know, he won yesterday as an individual, and I know how much that means to him and how important it was, but he's flipped that page pretty quickly and is really excited to join his teammates and move forward in that process\".\n\"It was just a grind out there\", Woods said of his final round. \"Just went for a little chunk-and-run, and I didn't try and play the lobber all the way back to the flag\".\nJust a year earlier, in fact, he was rated No. 1,199 among global golfers, and he'd just wrapped up a fourth back surgery - no small feat for a man who makes a living on the golf course. He finished the tournament at 11 under par to take home his 80th victory, two shy of Sam Snead's record.\nEven President Trump noticed that Woods was playing well. The victory also came with a $3 million bonus for finishing second in the FedEx Cup.\nWoods looked destined to surpass Nicklaus when he clinched his 14th major at the 2008 US Open before his career hit the rails after a sex scandal and then a debilitating back injury.",

It is divided into three parts; together they are intended to provide theoretical, empirical, and policy perspectives on source and consequences of globalization, focusing on emergent structures and processes, and on the implications of flows of goods and services across national boundaries \u2013 with special attention to the issue of migration, on the assumption that people matter and matter a lot. An important concern addressed pertains to the dilemmas of international policies that are shaped by the macro-level consequences of micro-level behavior. 17.411 fulfills undergraduate public policy requirement in the major and minor.

        "raw_content": "Oklahoma Abortion Center Opens and Court Strikes Down Abortion Regulation Law\nWhile Oklahoma has earned a reputation as being one of 18 states that is considered hostile to the performance of abortions, the protection of the unborn had some recent setbacks in the state. The first new abortion facility to be licensed in the state since 1974 opened in Oklahoma City in September, and a Pro-life bill passed by the Legislature and signed by the governor last year was struck down by the Oklahoma Supreme Court in October.\nThe new abortion facility is located in south Oklahoma City. Julie Burkhart, who operates the South Wind Women\u2019s Center in Wichita, Kansas, said they felt like there was an opportunity to fill a need in this part of the state. When Outpatient Services for Women closed in 2014, Burkhart says Oklahoma City became the largest metropolitan area in the United States without an abortion facility. There are only two other abortion centers in the state, one in Tulsa and one in Norman.\nThe businesswoman once ran an abortion facility in Kansas for the late-term abortionist George Tiller who was long a target of anti-abortion activists. In the 1980s the facility was bombed, in 1993 he was shot, and in 2009 he was killed by an anti-abortion activist.\nBurkhart purchased a former eye clinic at 1240 SW 44th Street in Oklahoma City and spent about $1 million to renovate and open the South Wind Women\u2019s Center. She said their facility in Kansas had many patients from Oklahoma, and they expect to see patients from Texas at the Oklahoma facility because of the long wait for an abortion in that state. They hope serve about 1,500 to 2,000 clients at the Oklahoma center each year. The facility will perform abortions up to 21.6 weeks of pregnancy.\nOn October 4, the Oklahoma Supreme Court in an unanimous vote struck down a bill passed by the state legislature which placed a number of restrictions on abortion facilities. The state high court ruled that the measure was a violation of the state Constitution\u2019s single-subject rule. The court decided the bill covered multiple subjects and also found that the bill placed \u201cundue burdens on access to abortion under the guise of protecting the health of women.\u201d\nSenate Bill 642, authored by Sen. Greg Treat (R-Oklahoma City) and Rep. Randy Grau (R-Edmond), passed 40-5 in the Senate and 70-5 in the House. It was signed into law by Gov. Mary Fallin on June 4, 2015. Senate Bill 642 was passed in 2015 but did not go into effect pending a court decision. It encompassed four components regulating abortions: parental consent for minors, tissue preservation, inspection of clinics and legal liability of abortion providers. The measure would have made it a felony for a person to help a minor obtain an abortion without parental consent. It would have authorized the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) to create new protocols for statutory rape investigations and would have required abortion providers to preserve fetal tissue when an abortion was performed on someone under 14 years of age. It also would give authority to the state Board of Health to create new policies and procedures for licensing of abortion facilities.\nThe New York-based Center for Reproductive Rights challenged the law on behalf of Dr. Larry Burns who operates the abortion facility in Norman. He has performed nearly half of Oklahoma\u2019s abortions over the last few years. Nancy Northup, president and chief executive officer of the center, said in a press release: \u201cThis law was nothing but a cynical attack on women\u2019s health and rights by unjustly targeting their trusted healthcare providers.\u201d The group has challenged Oklahoma abortion laws eight times, and claims a 100 percent success rate in blocking the laws.\nJustice Joseph Watt wrote the opinion for the nine-member court: \u201cAlthough each section relates in some way to abortion, the broad sweep of each section does not cure the single subject defects in this bill. Although defendants urge that SB 642 does not constitute logrolling, we find the provisions are so unrelated that those voting on this bill were faced with a constitutionally prohibited all-or-nothing choice to ensure the passage of favorable legislation.\u201d\nState Sen. Treat issued the following statement after the Oklahoma Supreme Court issued its ruling: \u201cThe Oklahoma Supreme Court too often wields its power to strike down good legislation because a bill doesn\u2019t suit the court\u2019s political ideology. The Supreme Court takes a very different view of the single subject rule when it suits a cause they support; however, the court\u2019s application of the single subject rule becomes remarkably strict when it comes to pro-life legislation. Most Oklahomans would agree this is an important piece of legislation that covers one single subject. This bill was intended to protect minors by collecting and maintaining evidence of the rape of a child so such evidence could be used to help convict sexual predators. Reasonable minds can agree this is a very worthy goal. The single subject provision was a noble attempt to protect the process. Unfortunately, the court has perverted its intent to force its ideology on Oklahomans.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "It was quite discouraging. Following the decision by President Trump to bomb a country \u2013 Syria \u2013 that has not attacked us, and is no threat to our country, four members of our congressional delegation joined in support of the offensive action. This is wrong on both practical and constitutional grounds.\nA close look at the what these men said is both troubling and revealing.\nSenator James Lankford said that Syria\u2019s dictator, Bashar Assad, had used chemical weapons \u201cagainst his own people.\u201d I have always found this remark, which is not original with Lankford, interesting. Would it be better if Assad had simply attacked the people of another country? He follows this up with calls for the \u201cinternational community\u201d to demand that \u201cAssad step down and allow the refugees scattered around the globe to return to their homes and be able to pursue peace.\u201d\nInternational community? Does this mean that other countries should get together and decide what thug rules the various countries of the world? This is rank globalism. What is the criteria for ousting the head of state and/or government in another country? Who makes this decision? The United Nations? (Its charter says it will not interfere in the domestic matters of its member nations). The United States? How would we like it if other countries decided it was time for Trump to \u201cstep down?\u201d\nAnd, surely Lankford is not so na\u00efve as to believe that if Assad were to cease to exist, peace would reign in Syria. Maybe it would, I suppose, if the thugs fighting Assad took over and brought the peace of the grave to Christians and moderate Muslims. No, if Assad were gone, the slaughter would continue unabated.\nThen, there is Senator Jim Inhofe. He is no doubt one of the finest men ever to serve in Congress from this state. He was a voice \u201ccrying in the wilderness\u201d against the global warming alarmists when most others were heading for the tall grass.\nBut Inhofe is wrong when he argues that Syria had violated \u201cinternational law and norms of behavior.\u201d Again, who is going to decide when we get to intervene in the domestic affairs of a foreign country? Perhaps other countries do not like our opposition to international restrictions on our industry in the name of reducing \u201cglobal warming.\u201d Should they be able to just bomb us? After all, if the global warming alarmists are correct, we\u2019re talking the whole planet here in danger, not just one country in the Middle East. Remember, Senator Inhofe, they say \u201cthe debate [on global warming] is over.\u201d\nCongressman Tom Cole called Trump\u2019s attacking another country \u201cjust and decisive.\u201d But at least Cole mentioned a role for Congress: \u201cCongress should have a robust debate and provide the President with the authorization for the Use of Military Force.\u201d\nI agree that Congress should have a debate, because it is Congress, and not the president that has the constitutional authority to authorize military force. But it is obvious to Cole it is a mere formality \u2013 he says that Congress should provide Trump with that authorization. My question for Cole is simple: What if Congress just says no? Does Cole believe Trump still has the legal authority to take offensive military actions on his own? Would he continue to \u201capplaud\u201d bombing strikes of Syria? What about other countries? After all, Cuba\u2019s thuggish government has killed thousands of its own people. Should we call for Raul Castro to \u201cstep down,\u201d and if he doesn\u2019t then launch bombing in Havana?\nFinally, there is Congressman Steve Russell, who leads the appropriately named \u201cWarrior Caucus.\u201d Russell said we cannot \u201cstand by in silence as dictators murder with chemical weapons.\u201d Really? So, just so long as they murder with guns, then it is acceptable for dictators to murder? What about killing civilians with fire-bombs or atomic bombs? What about Sherman\u2019s march to the sea through Georgia in 1964, in which his armies burned a path sixty miles wide, leading to the deaths of hundreds of American civilians? Should Lincoln have \u201cstepped down?\u201d After all, his armies were killing his own people.\n\u201cThere is no doubt Assad is a brutal dictator,\u201d commented Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky. \u201cBut if we seek to remove him, we must ask what comes next. Assad is fighting radical Islamic rebels, including large parts of ISIS. Who would take over Syria if Assad is deposed? Experience in Libya tells us chaos could reign, and radical Islamists could control large parts of the country.\u201d\nThis is the practical argument against what Trump did. But there is also a constitutional argument against his actions, and Paul speaks to that, as well. \u201cThe Constitution clearly states that it is Congress that has the power to declare war, not the president \u2026 Congress must stand up and assert its authority here and now.\u201d\nBut they probably will not. For some reason, most members of Congress seem very willing to give up the powers given them in the Constitution. They let presidents and bureaucrats do all sorts of things that should be decided by the legislative branch. After all, the Constitution gives \u201call\u201d legislative power to Congress, not to the president. They also are willing to just throw their hands up when the federal judiciary usurps their legislative function. \u201cWell, the Supreme Court has said, blah, blah, blah, so it is now the \u2018law of the land.\u2019\u201d Maybe if they don\u2019t have to cast a vote, then they don\u2019t have to answer to anyone at election time. Just let Trump or the Court do it.\nThe view that I am expressing is not held just by Paul and Steve Byas. Even Alexander Hamilton, who favored a strong executive, said \u201cthe Legislature alone\u201d has the authority to \u201cplace the nation in a state of war.\u201d As Thomas Woods says in his book, Who Killed the Constitution? \u201cThe president\u2019s commander in chief authority had to do with, in the words of Hamilton, directing \u2018war when authorized or begun,\u2019 not with launching the war himself.\u201d Woods added, \u201cGeorge Washington specifically disclaimed the power to take the country to war without congressional authorization.\u201d John Adams and Thomas Jefferson made similar statements.\nJames Madison, who has been awarded the title, \u201cThe Father of the Constitution\u201d for his most significant role in Philadelphia, commented, \u201cOf all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended \u2026 No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.\u201d\nThere you have it. On one side you have Cole, Inhofe, Russell and Lankford. On the other side, we have Washington, Adams, Hamilton, Jefferson, and Madison. I know which side I am on, on this issue.\nNo one argues that presidents cannot defend the country, if attacked. This was explicitly understood at the Constitutional Convention. Like the captain of a ship at sea, if this nation is attacked, we would expect the president to move to defend us. But Syria did not attack us. It is no threat to ever attack us. We have no more right to bomb that country and choose when its leaders step down than they have a right to bomb our country, and decide when our leaders step down.\nYes, I am discouraged. I do not think there is anything I could say, any quote from Washington or Jefferson or Madison I could cite that would change the minds of those infected with this war psychology that has plagued this country since we went to war with Spain to free Cuba. They like playing policeman \u2013 of the world \u2013 too much to stop.",

        "raw_content": "New Democrat State Chair\nOklahoma Democrats elected a new state chair to run the party for the next two years at the Oklahoma Democratic State Convention on May 20 in Oklahoma City. Mark Hammons, the incumbent, did not run for reelection. Four candidates ran for the top leadership post in the state party. Sarah Baker ran for the District 43 house seat in 2014 and lost. Since then, she started a marketing firm and filled several staff positions in the party. Trial attorney Mark Henricksen was endorsed by progressives in the party. He is a well-known liberal in Oklahoma City and served on the board of American Civil Liberties Union of Oklahoma. Democrat activist Mike Workman was the Democrat nominee for state Labor Commissioner in 2014 and U.S. Senator last year, losing both of those races. Anna Langthorn worked as an intern for the party and served as the president of the Young Democrats of Oklahoma for two years. She was campaign manager for the election of Kay Floyd, the first openly gay woman to be elected to the Oklahoma Legislature. Until February, she was a junior partner at Skyfire Media, an Oklahoma political advertising and consulting firm which coordinated successful campaigns for Democrat clients. Langthorn won on the second ballot in a runoff with Henricksen. At age 24, she is the youngest person to be elected chair of the Oklahoma Democratic Party.\nRepublican State Chairman Reelected\nPam Pollard.of Midwest City ran for reelection as chairman of Oklahoma Republican Party. She was elected to lead the party in October 2015 after Randy Brogdon who was elected earlier in the year resigned. She is a former Oklahoma County GOP chairman and was President of the Oklahoma Federation of Republican Women and also served a short time a Treasurer of the National Federation of Republican Women, resigning that position when she became Chairman of the state party. She was challenged for reelection by attorney and business owner Robert Aery. Pollard was easily reelected at the Oklahoma Republican State Convention in Moore on May 6.\nKouplen Elected House Minority Leader\nIn May, the House Democratic Caucus chose Rep. Steve Kouplen of Beggs to replace Rep. Scott Inman as Minority Leader when Inman terms out next year. Kouplen is serving his fifth consecutive two-year term in the House and will be in his final term if reelected in 2018. He has a 43% cumulative average on the Oklahoma Conservative Index and Rep. Inman rated 44 percent. He sits on the House Committees on Agriculture and Rural Development, Rules, Energy and Natural Resources and Appropriations and Budget. He is also the current Democratic Caucus Chairman. \u201cIt is a great honor to have been chosen by my peers,\u201d Kouplen said, \u201cparticularly since following Scott Inman will be an incredibly tough job. I look forward to utilizing the talents of our entire caucus during the 57th Legislature.\u201d Rep. Emily Virgin (Conservative Index rating 16%) of Norman will succeed Kouplen as the caucus chair. Rep. George E. Young (Conservative Index rating 33%) of Oklahoma City was re-elected as caucus vice chairman. The House Democrats elect their officers a year in advance to help with the transition.\nRINO Rep. Bush Endorses Democrat\nTulsa RINO (Republican In Name Only) State Representative Carol Bush, District 70, spoke at the July 13 campaign kickoff event in Oklahoma City for Democrat Kendra Horn, who is running against Republican Fifth District Congressman Steve Russell. Rep. Bush has a Oklahoma Conservative Index rating of just 13 %, that is 13 out of 100, in this past legislative session. Bush, who narrowly defeated conservative State Rep. Ken Walker last year, sat down for an interview last December with the ultra-liberal The Tulsa Voice tabloid. In that interview she said she was encouraged to run by then Democrat State Rep. Jeanne McDaniel. She told The Tulsa Voice she supported gay rights, the removal of the Ten Commandments from the state capitol, tax hikes, handing out birth control in public schools, and thinks people concerned about transgender bathrooms are ignorant. She also thinks the GOP, especially State Rep. John Bennett of Sallisaw, is too religious. When the Republican state house leadership asked her to apologize for her remarks, she sent out an apology claiming she was taken out of context. However, The Tulsa Voice defended its December story in its January issue. In addition to Jeannie McDaniel, Democrats George Kaiser and former State Senator Penny Williams of Tulsa contributed to her 2016 campaign to defeat Rep. Walker in the GOP primary. Perhaps a conservative Republican will challenge Bush in 2018.\nOklahoma\u2019s current Lieutenant Governor, Todd Lamb, is term-limited and seeking the Republican nomination for Governor. With the post open in 2018, a number of Republican candidates are entering the race. Former Oklahoma Republican Party Chairman and small business owner Matt Pinnell formally began his campaign for Lt. Governor on April 20. Dominque Damon Block Sr. of Oklahoma City filed with the Ethics Commission to raise funds for his campaign. He was a 2010 Republican candidate for Oklahoma House of Representatives in District 88.\nOn July 25, state Senator Eddie Fields (R-Wynona) announced that he will run for Lieutenant Governor. Fields is a rancher and small businessman from Osage County. He was first elected to the Oklahoma Senate in 2010 after serving one term in the Oklahoma House of Representatives. He was reelected in 2014. While he could run and be reelected in 2018, due to the 12-year legislative term limits, he would not be able to complete a full term because of his time in the House. He has a cumulative average of 53% on the Oklahoma Conservative Index and scored only 16% in this year\u2019s session.\nOklahoma Corporation Commissioner Dana Murphy of Edmond announced as a candidate on July 26. Murphy, 57, won another six-year term last year and will remain in the position during the campaign. She was first elected in 2008 in a Special Election to fill the remainder of the term of Denice Bode who resigned. She won reelection in 2010 for a full six year term. Since she did not have a Republican challenger last year, and the Democrat withdrew from the race, she has a large campaign fund that can be transferred to this race.\nDHS Program Cuts\nAfter Oklahoma Department of Humans Services (DHS) Executive Director Ed Lake announced in July that the agency will cut $30 million from programs that support foster children and elderly meals, House Speaker Charles McCall (R-Atoka) said the announcement is one reason his bill to audit agency budgets every four years is so important for taxpayers. Speaker McCall authored HB 2311 this session, which would require the Legislative Services Bureau (LSB) to audit or contract with a third-party auditor to audit agency budgets. The bill was signed by Gov. Mary Fallin and becomes effective on October 1, 2017.\nSpeaker McCall said DHS received a $53 million increase in the state appropriations for Fiscal Year that began on July 1, and the agency owes taxpayers an explanation for why it could afford the programs last year but cannot this year after receiving a large increase in funding. \u201cThis is an agency that received $700 million in taxpayer dollars last session. We worked diligently during the legislative session to meet the needs of the agency as Director Lake requested, so this announcement to cut programs is surprising to say the least,\u201d said McCall.\nAs one of the largest state appropriated agencies, McCall said he believes DHS should be among the first agencies to be audited by the LSB in 2018.\nRep. Osborn Replaced as Chair\nJust days after State Rep. Leslie Osborn (R-Mustang) defended the Department of Human Services director from criticism by House Speaker Charles McCall, she received notice that she is being replaced as House Appropriations & Budget chair. Osburn claimed that everyone was aware, including Speaker McCall, that cuts in DHS programs would have to be made, even though the agency received a budget increase. Following the announcement, Rep. Osborn responded: \u201cSpeaker McCall\u2019s decision to relieve me of my duties as Chair of the House Appropriations and Budget Committee is his to make. I am disheartened by his decision, but I am not deterred in my desire to work for the betterment of our wonderful State. Oklahomans are calling out for leadership, and I intend to answer their call.\u201d She added: \u201cIt is a sad day when we cannot have an honest conversation about the major financial and budget issues we face as a state.\u201d McCall appointed Rep. Kevin Wallace of Wellston as the new Appropriations & Budget chairman. Wallace has a cumulative average score of 51% on the Oklahoma Conservative Index and scored 19% this year.\nOsborn for Labor Commissioner\nFollowing her replacement as House Appropriations and Budget chair, Rep. Leslie Osborn announced that she will run for Labor Commissioner in the 2018. She has the support of Speaker Charles McCall in the race. Melissa Houston is currently serving as Labor Commissioner and says she will not run for the seat in 2018. She was appointed to the post by Governor Fallin after the murder of Commissioner Mark Costello in 2015. Osborn has a cumulative average on the Oklahoma Conservative Index of 51% and scored a lowly 19% in this year\u2019s session.\nSen. Marlatt Removed from Leadership\nIn July, the leader of the Oklahoma Senate relieved Sen. Bryce Marlatt (R-Woodward) of his leadership duties after he was accused of lewd conduct by an Uber driver. \u201cAs leader of the Oklahoma Senate, it is my expectation that every member conduct himself or herself in a manner that is above reproach,\u201d Senate Pro Tem Mike Schulz (R-Altus), wrote in a letter to members. \u201cAllegations like those contained in the police report concerning Sen. Marlatt are very serious in nature and are not tolerated. Effective immediately, Sen. Marlatt is relieved of his Senate chairmanship and vice chairmanships, pending the outcome of this active matter that is still being sorted out. Further action may be taken as deemed necessary.\u201d Marlatt,, was chairman of the Senate Energy Committee and vice chairman of both the Senate Rules Committee and the Senate Transportation Committee. The Oklahoman reported that an Uber driver told police that Marlatt grabbed her forcefully and kissed her on the neck while she was driving him on June 26 on the way to a hotel in Oklahoma City. Marlatt then had the driver take him to The Pump Bar, according to the police report. She reported the incident June 28.\nSen. Newhouse Called for Active Duty\nState Sen. Joe Newhouse (R-Broken Arrow) announced that he will soon be deployed in support of operations in northern Africa as part of the continuing fight against terrorism. Before seeking elected office, he was a jet pilot in the U.S. Navy with the rank of lieutenant assigned to the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz and flew multiple combat missions during the Iraq War. After returning home, Newhouse continued to serve in the Officer Reserve Corps as a Navy Commander and military advisor to NATO.\n\u201cWhen you are in the reserves, you know there is the possibility that you could be deployed at any time. Although my service in the Senate could have possibly exempted me, I would not want to be treated differently than any other reservist\u00f9especially in light of recent terrorist attacks in England, France and around the world,\u201d said Newhouse. Newhouse said his deployment means he will likely miss the 2018 legislative session though he will be in contact with his office, fellow members and constituents throughout his deployment and returning to Capitol when his tour of duty is complete.\nLoveless Signs Settlement Agreement\nState Sen. Kyle Loveless resigned during the last legislative session amid an investigation by the Oklahoma Ethics Commission. On July 7, Loveless signed a settlement agreement acknowledging that he misused more than $100,000 in donations to his 2012 and 2016 campaigns. Under the agreement he was charged in Oklahoma County District Court in a plea deal made with prosecutors and sentenced to probation. He agreed to make restitution for his personal use of $112,524 in campaign funds to be paid to the state\u2019s General Revenue Fund, pay $10,000 to the Oklahoma Ethics Commission for the costs of its investigation, and pay $40,000 to the Oklahoma State Election Board to cover the cost of the special election to fill his vacant seat. He also agreed to never again hold any position, elected or otherwise, paid for by public funds. He further agreed to never act as a paid political consultant \u201cfor any state, local, county, municipal or school district campaign\u201d in Oklahoma and to never engage in lobbying activities in the State of Oklahoma.\nByrd for State Auditor and Inspector\nOklahoma Deputy State Auditor Cindy Byrd officially declared as a 2018 Republican candidate for State Auditor & Inspector at the State Republican Convention in May. The current holder of that office, Gary Jones, is prevented from running for a third term, due to term limits. Byrd, a CPA, has spent more than 20 years providing accountability and transparency for state taxpayers. During her tenure at the State Auditor\u2019s office, Byrd identified waste and exposed corruption at the state and county level. Among her efforts was leading an audit in Rogers County that identified more than $5 million in fraud resulting in the indictment of two County Commissioners.\nMulready for Insurance Commissioner\nState Rep. Glen Mulready (R-Tulsa) filed a \u201cStatement of Organization\u201d with the Oklahoma Ethics Commission to form the Friends of Glen Mulready, 2018 campaign committee. The committee will support the Tulsa businessman\u2019s 2018 campaign for state Insurance Commissioner. Mulready has worked in the insurance industry for more than 33 years. He spent 13 years on the executive teams of Oklahoma\u2019s two largest health insurance companies and for the last eight years has been self-employed as an independent. Mulready has also led numerous efforts to reform the state\u2019s insurance laws in his capacity as a state legislator. He was first elected to represent House District 68 as a Republican in 2010 and currently serves as the Majority Floor Leader. He has a cumulative average score of 61% on the Oklahoma Conservative Index and scored 20% this year.\nMcDaniel for State Treasurer\nRep. Randy McDaniel announced on July 10 that he will be seeking the office of State Treasurer. McDaniel, a Republican from Edmond, serves as the Chairman of the House Banking, Financial Services and Pensions Committee. He also has worked for more than two decades in the financial services industry as a financial advisor. After earning a degree in Economics from the University of Oklahoma and a graduate degree from Cambridge University, McDaniel began his career in banking and then worked for more than twenty years as a financial advisor for both individuals and institutions. In his capacity as a financial advisor, McDaniel managed hundreds of millions of dollars for a diverse group of clients.\n\u201cIn government, I have used my background in economics and investments to address some of the state\u2019s greatest financial challenges, such as the state pension system,\u201d said McDaniel. \u201cAfter authoring and passing a series of pension reforms, the situation has turned from a looming insolvency crisis to a clear path towards strength and stability. This improvement is not only important for pension participants, but also to the state\u2019s bond rating. It is very important for our next State Treasurer to have a clear understanding of these complex issues.\u201d Rep. McDaniel has a cumulative average of 72% on the Oklahoma Conservative Index, but received a 30% score in this year\u2019s session.\nOklahoma Bond Rating\nIn July, Fitch Ratings downgraded the ratings on several Oklahoma bonds by a notch. This action could increase the state\u2019s borrowing costs on a number of projects, such as the American Indian Cultural Center in Oklahoma City, the Oklahoma Museum of Popular Culture in Tulsa. Some higher education construction projects and the new state Health Department lab approved by the Legislature this year, are among upcoming bond-financed projects impacted by the downgrade. But, the rating change won\u2019t impact Oklahoma Turnpike Authority bonds, because they are backed by revenue generated by the turnpike system. The downgrade is due to concerns about bonds that are dependent on state appropriations to repay the bonds.\nFitch announced it was lowering Oklahoma\u2019s issuer default rating from AA+ to AA, the rating on the state\u2019s general obligation bonds from AA+ to AA, and the ratings on the state\u2019s Oklahoma Capitol Improvement Authority and Oklahoma Development Finance Authority bonds from AA to AA-. With the downgrade, Fitch\u2019s Oklahoma ratings will be similar to those of Standard & Poor\u2019s credit rating service, which lowered Oklahoma\u2019s rating March 1, and Moody\u2019s rating service, which has been slightly lower than Fitch\u2019s for a number of years.\nFitch noted in its downgrade report that Oklahoma has relied on a continued drawdown of the state\u2019s Rainy Day Fund and one-time revenue sources to fill large revenue gaps over the last couple of years rather than broadening the tax base. Investors rely on the credit ratings to evaluate the risk of default and generally demand a higher interest rate for bonds with a lower rating. It has been estimated that for every $100 million the state borrows under a 20-year repayment structure, a difference between a AA and AA- rating means the state may end up paying around $2.4 million in additional interest over the life of the bonds.\nBorrowing from Rainy Day Fund\nOklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter issued an opinion in June which said state finance officials can borrow money from Oklahoma\u2019s Constitutional Reserve Fund, often called the Rainy Day Fund. In the last budget year, Finance Preston Doerflinger borrowed the entire $240.7 million balance from the fund in order to pay the state\u2019s expenses. Doerflinger asked Hunter for an opinion on whether the action was legal. Doerflinger claimed that the state Constitution allowed for the transfer of money from state funds to cover expenses during revenue shortfalls.\nIn his opinion, Hunter wrote that transfers are OK if they are truly temporary; but the Constitution requires all the money to be paid back at the end of the fiscal year which closes at the end of June. However, the attorney general also wrote that money can\u2019t be withdrawn from the fund to avoid a revenue failure declaration. Also, transfers from the fund have to be based on a reasonable estimate that higher revenue later in the budget year will be available to pay the state\u2019s bills and also repay the fund. Hunter warned that borrowing cannot interfere with the Legislature\u2019s ability to appropriate money from the Rainy Day Fund. During the 2017 session, lawmakers authorized two supplemental appropriations, but distribution of those funds were delayed until money was returned to the fund. However, even in those instances, Doerflinger\u2019s actions apparently are within the guidelines set by the attorney general in his opinion.\nAG Hunter Defending Campus Chapel\nOklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter is defending East Central University\u2019s right to retain religious icons on its campus chapel in Ada. A cross tops the Kathryn P. Boswell Memorial Chapel on the campus. After learning about a \u201cdemand letter\u201d from an advocacy group seeking to have crosses, Bibles and an altar removed from the chapel, Hunter asked officials at ECU and the Regional University System of Oklahoma to refer all questions regarding architectural features of the chapel to his office. Hunter said the letter is an implicit threat to take legal action and should be directed to the attorney general as the state\u2019s chief legal officer. In June, Americans United for Separation of Church and State sent the letter to ECU President Katricia Pierson seeking the removal of religious items inside and outside of the chapel, including the cross atop the steeple. \u201cThe cross displays and the various other religious displays in the chapel plainly violate the law. Please remove them,\u201d the letter stated. Ian Smith, staff attorney for Americans United, said the organization received a complaint from a member of the Ada community. Pierson said she would convene a committee of students, faculty and community members to study the issue.\nREAL ID Extension\nIn June, Gov. Mary Fallin and the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety (DPS) announced that Oklahoma had received an extension from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to meet the requirements of the REAL ID Act through October 10 of this year. \u201cWe will request additional extensions until we are fully compliant with the REAL ID Act,\u201d said Fallin.\nIn February, Fallin signed House Bill 1845, which allowed state officials to begin work on building a compliant system. That includes training tag agents and creating a centralized office to handle card manufacturing and storage. Oklahoma Public Safety Commissioner Michael Thompson said implementing all of the changes could take two years or longer. Officials hope that the Department of Homeland Security will acknowledge the state\u2019s progress and grant extensions until the state achieves full compliance with the REAL ID Act and implementing regulations.\nOther States Follow Oklahoma Lead\nIn April 2016, Governor Mary Fallin signed Senate Bill 1148 into law as the first state to pass legislation intended to put an end to counterproductive mandates that drive up the cost of medical care and limit patient choice. Twenty-two states have now introduced bills inspired by this legislation sponsored by Rep. Mike Ritze (R-Broken Arrow) who is a physician. His bill seeks to reform a physician specialty board recertification process known as \u201cmaintenance of certification\u201d or MOC. Over the last decade, MOC has become increasingly irrelevant, onerous, expensive, and detrimental to patient care according to numerous physician surveys. Research published in the Annals of Internal Medicine estimates that MOC costs will balloon to $5.7 billion over 10 years and physicians will spend 33 million hours on MOC activities away from patient care.\n\u201cUnfortunately the special interests that profit from MOC requirements, at the expense of patients and doctors, are increasing their opposition to these important reforms,\u201d Ritze said. Charles Kroll, CPA and healthcare forensic accountant explains, \u201cThe \u2018not-for-profit\u2019 organizations selling MOC have amassed over $1 Billion in assets; they have a lot to lose if more bills like SB 1148 are enacted. MOC is helping pay for over $50 million dollars in annual executive compensation and retirement benefits.\u201d Rep. Ritze concluded, \u201cWe are not going to stop working to help Oklahoma patients and physicians. Next year, we will be back with legislation to improve on SB1148 and close loopholes some have found to continue imposing MOC on the state\u2019s medical workforce to the detriment of patient care.\u201d\nU.S. Supreme Court Ruling on Blaine Amendment\nIn June, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in favor of a Missouri church and Christian school that applied for a public grant program which recycled shredded tires to use as padding on outdoor playgrounds. The U.S. Supreme Court overruled a decision by the Missouri State Supreme Court that used the Missouri Constitution\u2019s Blaine Amendment to prohibit the school from participating in the program. The high court ruled that the school\u2019s ability to participate in the program was protected by the First Amendment, and that they couldn\u2019t be omitted from the program based on their religion.\nState Rep. Mike Ritze (R-Broken Arrow), released the following statement upon the court\u2019s ruling: \u201cWhen used incorrectly, the Blaine Amendment is a dangerous device that threatens the oldest founding principle of our country \u2013 freedom of religion. Oklahomans have had a similar experience with the Blaine Amendment when the Oklahoma Supreme Court used its hostile language to rule we could no longer display the Ten Commandments on state property. I applaud the U.S. Supreme Court and implore them to take similar action in our case and reverse this government overreach that threatens our state\u2019s freedom of religion. \u201d\nBrian Maughn Campaign Growing\nOklahoma County Commissioner Brian Maughn is running for mayor of Oklahoma City, and if his campaign event July 2 is any indication, his campaign is growing in strength. The event featured country music stars Wade Hayes and Jody Miller, both Oklahomans, and drew a crowd of hundreds. Maughn has clearly been a conservative star himself at the Oklahoma County Courthouse. His opponent is state Senator David Holt, who scored a dismal 13% conservative on the Oklahoma Conservative Index this past session. Holt is a darling of the Chamber of Commerce, often pushing the \u201cCrony Capitalist\u201d agenda.\nCole Says Congress Should Take Back War Powers\n\u201cPresidents have been able to go to war anytime, anywhere,\u201d Oklahoma Congressman Tom Cole said in an interview this week with Justin Wingerter of the Oklahoman. \u201cThat\u2019s dangerous and at odds with the Constitution.\u201d In regard to this, Cole has introduced an amendment to the annual Defense bill that \u201cdirects the president to provide to Congress a strategy and a budgetary analysis needed to defeat al-Qaeda, the Taliban, the Islamic State of Iraq and ISIS.\u201d Cole calls his amendment \u201cas baby step but the right step\u201d for overturning Congress\u2019 lethargy on war authorization. \u201cNo administration should be able to use the military when and wherever they want.\u201d\nNew State Election Board Service\nA new service launched in June will allow voters to sign up for e-mail or text messages reminding them about upcoming elections in their county, Oklahoma State Election Board Secretary Paul Ziriax. The GovDelivery service will also let voters sign up for reminders to renew their annual absentee ballot requests, receive press releases and get a digest of the agency\u2019s official Twitter feed. To sign up, voters can visit the Oklahoma State Election Board\u2019s website. An overlay will pop up allowing website visitors to sign up for the service. Voters can also sign up via a permanent request box on the site\u2019s home page.\nSubscribers can choose to receive e-mail or text alerts. To get election reminders, a voter will also need to list their county of residence. A few days before each election, an alert will be sent to subscribers in any county that is having an election. The alert will include links to the board\u2019s upcoming elections web page, where they can view the elections taking place in their county, and to the Online Voter Tool, which will allow the voter to see a sample ballot if they are eligible to vote in the election. \u201cAlong with the Online Voter Tool and the online absentee ballot request form, this service makes it easier than ever to make sure your vote gets cast and counted on Election Day,\u201dZiriax said. To sign up for notifications from the Oklahoma State Election Board or for any other information about Oklahoma elections, visit: www.elections.ok.gov\n2017 OCPA Liberty Gala Speaker\nDennis Prager will be the keynote speaker at Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs (OCPA) 2017 Liberty Gala in Tulsa on Thursday, October 19. The event will be held at the Renaissance Hotel and Convention Center. Prager is a conservative talk show host and founder of PragerU. He hosts one of America\u2019s most respected conservative talk shows, The Dennis Prager Show, and is a syndicated columnist, author, film producer, and conductor. He has been featured on Fox and Friends, Hannity, The Today Show, and in The Wall Street Journal. Prager also co-founded PragerU, which produces 5-minute videos to spread conservative principles about political science, economics, and history. For more information, contact OCPA at: ocpathink.org\nByas Speaks on Our Michelle Obama Legislature\nIn an expansion of his column, \u201cOur Michelle Obama Legislature,\u201d found in this issue, Oklahoma Constitution Editor Steve Byas is slated to speak to the Konawa Tea Party on August 22. The meeting will begin at 7 p.m., and is located at 701 W. South Street in Konawa. Byas is available to deliver this talk to other groups, which covers why we have come to this dismal point, and what we can do about it.

An Oklahoma Public Television special will take on myths about wheat. The \"Truth about Wheat\" special will air on OETA starting THIS EVENING, Thursday, September 3rd and the special will air a total of six times this month on OETA-HD and OETA-OKLA. The program is a joint effort of the Oklahoma Wheat Commission and the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture.\nFellow farm broadcaster Ken Root is serving as the moderator, while the panel consists of Dr. Brett Carver, Regents Professor and Wheat Genetics Chair in Agriculture from Oklahoma State University, Dr. Julie Miller Jones, Board Certified Nutrition Specialist and Licensed Nutritionist and current Distinguished Scholar and Professor Emeritus of nutrition at St. Catherine University in St. Paul, Minn., and Sara Olsen, a Colorado wheat farmer, mother and Colorado Wheat Administrative Council board member.\nI caught up with Dr. Carver to talk about the top myths associated with wheat and it's genetic makeup. One of the myth is that today's wheat is toxic- a charge that has been floating around since 2011.\nCarver says the facts are that \"this is not a chronic poison that we are producing. This the same wholesome grain that was being produced 100 years ago and same wholesome grain that we inherited through evolution, domestication of this plant.\"\nAnother myth is that today's wheat is addictive. Carver said this argument stems from opponents finding older research on the topic, but those findings will not hold up scientifically.\n\"They'll use that to frame their argument and the argument is not scientifically-based,\" Carver said. \"It's not fact-based.\"\nWheat has been a part of the human diet for thousands of years and Carver said the profile of wheat has not changed. Click or tap here to listen to our full interview with one of the leading wheat breeders in the world.\nBy the way- last week- we featured one of the other panelists and you can hear our conversation from then with Dr. Julie Jones on the worries she has about the gluten free craze pulling people away from getting the recommended amount of wheat and whole grains products on a daily basis- click here and take a listen to yours truly and Julie Jones.\nThis special will air this evening on OETA at 7:30 PM- check OETA listings for additional show times.\nFederal Judge in Midland, Texas Says No to Lesser Prairie Chicken Threatened Status\nAn attempt to list the Lesser Prairie Chicken by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as threatened under the Endangered Species Act has been invalidated because the agency did not considered the conservation efforts of the landowners in the five states where the chicken resides.\nIn a 29-page ruling Tuesday, U.S. District Court Judge Robert Junell found the Fish and Wildlife Service didn't follow their own rule for evaluating conservation efforts when making listing decisions about the lesser prairie chicken.\nThe plaintiffs in the case were the Permian Basin Petroleum Association and four New Mexico counties. Defendants were the Fish and Wildlife Service, FWS Director Daniel Ashe, the Department of the Interior and Interior Secretary Sally Jewell.\nThe plaintiffs challenged whether the FWS followed its own rules, properly explained its decision and responded to the plaintiffs' concerns. While the judge sided with the plaintiffs on the first claim, he ruled in favor of the defendants in the other two claims.\nThe Fish and Wildlife Service has said the \"threatened\" listing last year was the result of a steep decline in the bird's population in recent years. Five states are home to the lesser prairie chicken: Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.\nHowever, a recent aerial survey by the Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Association found an estimated 29,162 lesser prairie chickens, an increase from 19,643 in 2013 and 23,363 in 2014.\nSenate Environment and Public Works Committee chair and Oklahoma Republican Jim Inhofe says \"The increase in LPC (lesser prairie chicken) population shows that states, industry, and farmers have proven their ability to steward their land and successfully conserve the LPS population without the need for big government interference.\"\nRead more on this ruling- plus we have the link to the complete ruling document in our webstory- it's all available here.\nU.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance Survey Reveals Consumer Attitudes on Sustainability and Ag\nThe U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance\u00ae (USFRA\u00ae) is focused on answering questions consumers have about how food is grown and raised. These questions are often answered online on the organization's social media platforms and via its signature Food Dialogues\u00ae series of panel discussions. Additionally, USFRA gathers insights on the types of questions and concerns about agriculture that are top-of-mind by surveying consumers. Today, USFRA shared insights from a recent consumer survey focused on farming, ranching and sustainability.\n\"For USFRA, no question about agriculture is off the table,\" said Nancy Kavazanjian, Chairwoman of USFRA. \"We want to make sure farmers and ranchers are involved in the most important conversations about food. We know that impact on the environment is a frequent conversation when it comes to food production. While farmers and ranchers are stewards of the land, we have not always been vocal voices in the environmental conversation, and we want that to change.\"\nUSFRA intends to use findings from the research to better answer questions consumers have about sustainability and agriculture. The survey found that 56 percent of all respondents agreed with the statement, \"Farmers and ranchers use new technologies and innovations to protect the environment.\" While 47 percent of all respondents agreed with the statement, \"The way that most of today's farming and ranching operations in the U.S. grow and raise food meets the standards of sustainability.\" However, when presented with the same statement, the survey revealed that women are less likely than men to agree that farming and ranching practices are sustainable - 37 percent of women versus 59 percent of men responding they are in agreement.\nAdditionally, the survey findings provided several insights to help farmers and ranchers better engage in conversations about sustainability practices on their farms or ranches.

After two record setting years, this year has been challenging. Oklahoma State University Extension Livestock Marketing Specialist Derrell Peel said exports continue to struggle for a variety of reasons. The west coast labor strike impacted exports for the first half of the year, in logistically moving product out of the country. In having record high prices, Peel said that is being aggravated by a strong U.S. dollar, which is making U.S. products more expensive. On the other side, he said the strong dollar is also making foreign beef imports more favorable.\n\"We got high prices and relative shortages of certain products in the U.S. and so we're seeing a significant increase in beef imports last year and again this year,\" Peel said.\nAfter several strong years for beef byproducts, that category has also been effected by the strong U.S. dollar. Peel said this impacts packers first and most directly.\n\"They've been losing $30 to $40 a head in revenue, which is a big part of the gross revenue margin to work with,\" Peel said. \"Recently, we finally have seen those byproduct values appear to have bottomed out. They have recovered a little bit in the last two, three weeks, but its significantly lower level than we had for about three or four years prior to that. So, it's been a real challenge and its certainty another indicator of some of those issues in the global markets.\"\nFeedlots continue to bear the brunt of this margin squeeze. Peel said 2015 is shaping up to be potentially the worst year for feedlots. That's on an average basis in terms of an annual budget series. Peel said feedlots are caught in the middle.

National Cattlemen's Beef Association executive director of education John Paterson explains why....\n\"And many of us would say, it was due to the drought,\" Paterson said. \"Ok? But there's about five reasons more than the drought and they were issues like high feed prices, the age of the producer, certain demographic of producers are leaving the ex- exiting the industry. I'll be honest with you a lot of our producers just couldn't believe what they were paying us for our calves and for our replacement heifers, even our cows and bulls. So we didn't keep them back. We sold them.\"\nBut times are good and that encourages rebuilding.\n\"The future is pretty bright, actually,\" Paterson said. \"We think, at least until 2020, we're going to see some pretty strong cattle prices. Maybe not as high as 2014, but they're going to be high prices, profitable prices. At least until 2017 probably more like 2020.\"\nTexas, Oklahoma and Kansas have seen the biggest jumps in cow inventory and 60 percent of the heifer retention is from those three states. Click here to read more about this rebuilding phase represents a chance to make herd improvements.\nNational Soy Checkoff Targets Soybean Innovation for Farmer Profit Opportunities\nMaximizing the profit potential of every U.S. soybean farmer means seeing beyond today; it means driving soybean innovation in products and services to meet customers' needs tomorrow.\nThat's why the farmer-leaders of the national soy checkoff made driving innovation the center of their new, groundbreaking 5-year strategic plan, which will guide all national soy checkoff investments from fiscal years 2017 to 2022.\n\"We American soybean farmers have had a good run these past few years, but being profitable in the future will mean something different than being profitable in the past,\" said United Soybean Board (USB) Chairman Bob Haselwood, who raises soybeans, corn and wheat on his farm in Berryton, Kansas. \"We need to focus on meeting our customers' changing needs, and giving them a reason to keep choosing U.S. soy over increasing competition. That's what's going to help us ensure our children and grandchildren will have the same chance to maximize their profit opportunities that we have had.\"\nThe new plan sets its sights on a future in which the U.S. soy industry increases the value of soybean meal for various species, from poultry to pork to aquaculture, and is recognized by customers for its highly desirable attributes such as its superior amino-acid profile and sustainability. The new plan also prioritizes supporting soybean farmers' use of technological advances to maximize their on-farm profit opportunities, as well as the ongoing development of high oleic soybean oil to increase soy's share of the edible-oil market.

        "raw_content": "By Nina Ilina\nJonathan Ernst / ReutersThe NATO symbol is projected on the Presidential Palace as U.S. President Barack Obama and NATO leaders attend a NATO Summit working dinner in Warsaw, Poland.\nNATO leaders meeting at the group's biennial summit in Warsaw have approved the deployment of of four 1,000-men battalions in Poland and the Baltic states.\nThe summit's final communiqu\u00e9 claimed that Russian aggression on the edge of NATO territory \u2014 as well as the Kremlin's perceived readiness to use force to attain political goals \u2014 was a source of regional instability. Russia's actions \u201cchallenge the Alliance, have damaged Euro-Atlantic security, and threaten our long-standing goal of a Europe whole, free, and at peace,\u201d the statement read.\nSpeaking at a press conference, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that while NATO was not seeking confrontation with Russia, the conflict in Ukraine and the annexation of Crimea had \u201cchanged the rules of the game.\u201d\nThe decision to deploy more troops was a response to numerous challenges and had been made in an effort to adapt to the changing security situation, he stressed.\nDirector of the Moscow Carnegie Center, Dmitry Trenin said that the current tensions were not comparable to a Cold War, but could be more problematic for Russia.\n\u201cIf we compare NATO and Russia now,\u201d he said at the summit's Experts' Forum, \u201cthen our country lags behind in all areas except perhaps nuclear weapons. In the event of conflict, the weaker side bears the greater risk: it has little time for reflection and must act quickly.\n\u201cDuring the Cold War, despite all our differences and hatred, we still had a dialogue and respect, but now there is none of that. The NATO-Russia Council is used only minimally and has become a tool for managing the confrontation,\u201d he said.\nFundamental differences between NATO and Russia command structures also cause communication problems, some experts claim. The large number of NATO members and the internal disagreements it causes have the potential to work against the alliance.\n\u201cDecisions in Moscow are made by a narrow group of people, mostly in uniform,\u201d said former Estonian ambassador to Russia J\u00fcri Luik. \u201cTherefore they understand when you are bluffing. It is fundamentally important that positions be clear and intelligible. It is wrong to first collectively impose sanctions, and to say later that the decision might have been a mistake. The same applies to joint military exercises: there should be no criticism in our ranks. We should not be afraid of offending Moscow; rather, they are the ones acting as if they had been offended,\u201d he said.\nWith the United States, France and Germany \u2013 all key NATO member states \u2013 holding elections in the next two years, the likelihood of internal tensions is set to rise. The long-running dispute on who is deemed to be NATO's key threat is certainly a point for contention, with Poland and the Baltic nations looking eastwards, why other countries look elsewhere. \u201cWe should not make a distinction between threats from the east and those from the south,\u201d said Polish Foreign Ministry advisor Przemyslaw Zurawski. \u201cWe cannot have internal disagreements. Although Russia cannot influence elections in the United States, the nationalist forces gaining momentum in France and Germany take a pro-Russian stance,\u201d he said.\nMilitary analyst Alexander Golts believes that while NATO\u2019s task is to convince its member states that the alliance is effective, Moscow has something to gain from a confrontation \u201cIn the event of a confrontation, Russia becomes a besieged fortress,\u201d Golts said. \u201cDifferent rules which are advantageous for the Kremlin come into play during a war. It is another question as to whether Moscow can quickly ramp up its forces enough to stage a meaningful response to NATO. Moscow implemented military reforms in the absence of an outside threat and could find it difficult to significantly increase the number of troops in a short period of time,\u201d he said.\nThis story was originally published in Vedomosti on July 11.",

Take a closer look at this world-renowned concert hall with our 10 Fun Facts, and check out the Palau de la M\u00fasica concert season to experience it for yourself.\nIn 1908, none other than Richard Strauss conducted the Berliner Philharmoniker in three concerts at Barcelona\u2019s new \u201cPalace of Catalan Music\u201d.\nIt was the Catalan choral society that initiated the creation of the Palau de la M\u00fasica over 100 years ago, and that ensemble, the Orfeo Catala, still plays a central role in the programming and functioning of the concert hall today.\n\u201cPalace of Catalan Music\u201d: The name is the agenda. From the beginning, promotion of Catalan music has been a central mission of the Palau de la M\u00fasica Catalana.\nDespite the focus on local compositions, famous composers from around Europe have conducted or performed their own works in legendary recitals at the Palau de la M\u00fasica Catalana. Their ranks include Ravel, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, Sch\u00f6nberg, Rachmaninoff, Poulenc, and more.\nThe elaborate decoration of the hall includes 18 so-called \u201cmuses\u201d on the back walls of the stage area. Their upper bodies are sculpted, while their lower bodies are portrayed in colourful mosaic. Through different musical instruments and costumes, each represents a different era or aspect of music.\nNatural light pours through stained glass windows and skylight of the Palau de la M\u00fasica Catalana, making it the only concert house in the world that relies on sunlight during the day.\nIntricate symbolism can be found wherever you turn, including a representation of the meeting of classical and folk music traditions. Wagner\u2019s Valkyries soar up the right side, while a sculpted choir of girls sings a Catalan folk song on the left side.\nBefore he fully dedicated himself to architecture and design, the architect of Palau de la Musica Catalana, Llu\u00eds Dom\u00e8nech i Montaner, was involved in politics, striving for regional autonomy for Catalonia.\nFacade of Palau de la M\u00fasica \u00a9 Photo: Iris (Flickr)\nMain Concert Hall, Palau de la M\u00fasica \u00a9 Photo: Matteo Vecchi\nMosaic Columns at Palau de la M\u00fasica \u00a9 Photo: Matteo Vecchi\nCaf\u00e9 at Palau de la M\u00fasica \u00a9 Photo: Matteo Vecchi\nStage Palau de la M\u00fasica \u00a9 Photo: OKapartment\nBarcelonaConcert HallFeatured",

        "raw_content": "Workplace Deviance - O...\nRebecca J. Bennett, Shelly Marasi, and Lauren Locklear\nWorkplace Deviance Development\nConstructs Encompassing Workplace Deviance Dimensions\nConceptual Map of Deviant Work-Related Constructs\nInterpersonal Deviance\nOrganizational Deviance\nMain Theories for Explaining Deviant Behavior\nAntecedents of Deviant Behavior\nMeasures of Deviant Behaviors\nKey Controversies\nThe history of workplace deviance research has evolved from a focus on singular behaviors, such as theft or withdrawal in the 1970s and 1980s, to the broader focus on a range of behaviors in the 21st century. This more inclusive cluster of related \u201cdark side\u201d behaviors is made up of voluntary behaviors that violate significant organizational norms and in so doing threaten the well-being of an organization, its members, or both. Examples of behaviors that fall in this domain are employee theft and sabotage of organizational goods, services, data, customer lists, materials, working slow, calling in sick when you are not, bullying, harassment, discrimination, and gossip. Workplace deviance can be targeted at other individuals in the organization (coworkers, supervisors, subordinates) or at the organization itself, or both. Typically the actor\u2019s perspective is considered, but other relevant views of the behavior include the supervisor/the organization, peers, customers, or other third parties. Many causes have been studied as sources of deviant workplace behaviors, for example personality characteristics such as neuroticism or low conscientiousness, modeling others\u2019 behavior, experiences of injustice, uncertainty, lack of control or feelings of anger, frustration, and dissatisfaction. Nowadays, some researchers are returning to a focus on individual behaviors, or smaller clusters of behaviors such as sexual misconduct, gossip, and even constructive deviance, and the outcomes of workplace deviance on actors, targets, and observers are being investigated.\nKeywords: workplace deviance, counterproductive work behaviors, interpersonal deviance, organizational deviance, organizational retaliation, incivility, workplace aggression\nWorkplace deviance (Bennett & Robinson, 2000; Robinson & Bennett, 1995) has plagued companies for centuries (Coye, Murphy, & Spencer, 2010; Klotz & Buckley, 2013). For instance, mutinies, which are a type of upward defiance that involves organizational members organizing a movement intended to undermine and disrupt legitimate authority, have occurred for at least four centuries (Coye et al., 2010). However, it was not until the Industrial Revolution, when more modern forms of companies began to be established, that deviant behaviors in organizations started to be studied by management scholars (Klotz & Buckley, 2013).\nWorkplace deviance has been a pervasive problem for companies and their employees, as well as for their customers. Earlier research showed that between 50% and 75% of employees engaged in some form of deviant behavior (e.g., Bennett & Robinson, 2000; Harper, 1990; Harris & Ogbonna, 2002; Slora, 1991); however, more recent studies demonstrate that more than 90% of employees admit to participating in some type of workplace deviance (e.g., Marasi, 2014; Marasi, Bennett, & Budden, 2018). These recent findings of increased engagement in deviant behaviors may be due to either employee participation in these behaviors becoming more prevalent or simply employees feeling more comfortable disclosing their participation in these socially undesirable behaviors (which may be due to the data collection process, as the latter studies used online third-party organizations that allowed the subjects to have the perception of complete anonymity). Regardless of the cause for the increase in reported deviant behaviors in the workplace, workplace deviance remains an unremitting and inescapable problem for companies.\nParticipation in workplace deviance is a serious issue, as it has not only become more common but is also very costly for organizations and society, as well as for customers or employees (Bennett & Robinson, 2003). Organizations bear the highest cost, with annual estimations being in the billions worldwide. In the United States alone, the annual cost estimation is in the millions (Case, 2000; Harris & Ogbonna, 2006; Murphy, 1993), leading the United States Department of Commerce to determine that it causes about a third of all United States organizational bankruptcies. When deviant behaviors are targeted toward other employees, these employees may experience monetary costs (e.g., due to injury or theft of personal property) as well as mental or emotional costs (e.g., anguish, frustration, confusion, stress, or being afraid). In regard to societal costs, when companies lose money due to deviant behaviors (e.g., theft) organizations attempt to compensate for the loss by raising prices, resulting in the public (or customers) suffering monetary costs (due to the rising prices). Customers experiencing or witnessing deviant behaviors may experience similar emotional and mental distress to that of employees (e.g., frustration, anger, or stress), which may result in customers boycotting the company or perhaps even filing a lawsuit. However, little research has investigated the causes of employees\u2019 behaving deviantly towards customers and the impact these behaviors have on customers and their reactions to the acts (e.g., Darrat, Amyx, & Bennett, 2010; Swimberghe, Jones, & Darrat, 2014).\nWorkplace deviance is defined as \u201cvoluntary behavior that violates significant organizational norms and in so doing threatens the well-being of an organization, its members, or both\u201d (Robinson & Bennett, 1995, p. 556). Workplace deviance behaviors (WDB) have been mainly examined at the individual level in research studies. However, workplace deviance behaviors can also be analyzed at the group level (e.g., Priesemuth, Schminke, Ambrose, & Folger, 2014; Robinson & O\u2019Leary-Kelly, 1998), business unit level (e.g., Dunlop & Lee, 2004), and organizational level (e.g., Ermann & Lundman, 1978; Hans & Ermann, 1989).\nRobinson and Bennett\u2019s (1995) seminal study used an empirical technique, multidimensional scaling (MDS), to determine the perceived similarities among a broad collection of behaviors derived from the definition of deviant workplace behavior. MDS is a useful tool for producing inductive, but empirically derived, typologies. MDS techniques enable researchers to produce a typology using the perceptions of a diverse set of individuals who are blind to the purpose of a given study. Hence, MDS-based typologies are less prone to researchers\u2019 biases than typologies developed through other methods. MDS involves several distinct phases of data collection and analysis (Robinson & Bennett, 1995; Kruskal & Wish, 1978).\nRobinson and Bennett\u2019s (1995) MDS process first involved employees being asked for examples of behaviors they had witnessed that were \u201cwrong\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d at work. After unclear and redundant behavioral examples were eliminated, a list of 45 behaviors remained. The MDS analysis is built on comparison scores so multiple comparisons of each of the 45 behaviors to every other behavior on the list were required. Since it would be mind-numbing for a research subject to make the 45 \u00d7 45 comparisons, each participant compared two focal behaviors from the list to every other behavior on the list; thus, each participant made 88 total comparisons (2 \u00d7 (n-1)). Respondents were requested to indicate the amount of similarity between the focal behavior and each other behavior on the list on a Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (very similar) to 9 (very different).\nFrom the similarity matrix, Robinson and Bennett used MDS to calculate the underlying dimensions of the behavior. The greater the perceived distance between the objects, the greater the distance between them in the spatial configuration. The plotting of these distances in two-dimensional space is presented in Figure 1. Labels were then correlated to the dimensions; the best-fitting dimensional identifiers were target and severity of the behavior. The severity dimension varies from minor deviant behaviors, such as coming into work late or gossiping, to more severe deviant behaviors, such as assaulting someone at work or sabotaging equipment. The target dimension represents the entity that the deviant behavior is targeted toward, resulting in either organizational deviance or interpersonal deviance. This dimension is the most commonly recognized and utilized in deviant behavior research. The organizational and interpersonal deviance dimensions are fairly highly correlated (as they should be, since they both involve negative workplace behaviors), but they also have distinct patterns of relationships and antecedents, showing they are unique constructs (Berry, Ones, & Sackett, 2007). Organizational deviance involves the organization itself being the target of the deviant behavior (physically, financially, or figuratively). Hence, organizational deviance consists of sabotage, theft of organizational property, and littering the work environment, as well as taking excessively long breaks, coming in to work late, using drugs or alcohol at work, and sharing company secrets with outsiders. Interpersonal deviance entails deviant behaviors targeted toward other individuals in the workplace (e.g., coworkers, supervisors, customers). Interpersonal deviance involves employees gossiping about coworkers, bosses showing favoritism, bosses refusing to give employees earned pay or benefits, and physical or verbal abuse of coworkers.\nFigure 1. Two-Dimensional Configuration of Deviant Behaviors.\nThe main focus of interpersonal deviance research has been on coworkers engaging in deviant behaviors directed toward their peers, subordinates, and supervisors; however, more recent interpersonal deviance research has focused on employee deviant behaviors directed toward customers (e.g., Darrat et al., 2010; Swimberghe et al., 2014). Additionally, a different type of interpersonal deviance has recently emerged in the literature, customer deviance or customer dysfunctional behavior (e.g., Daunt & Harris, 2012; Fisk et al., 2010; Yi & Gong, 2008). Customer deviance involves an organization\u2019s customers engaging in deviant behaviors directed toward employees or the organization.\nThe two dimensions (target and severity) together yield a 2 \u00d7 2 typology. The four quadrants or types of workplace deviance are labelled by Robinson and Bennett (1995) as \u201cproduction deviance\u201d (minor harm directed towards the organization), \u201cproperty deviance\u201d (severe harm directed toward the organization), \u201cpolitical deviance\u201d (minor harm directed toward other individuals in the workplace), and \u201cpersonal aggression\u201d (serious harm directed toward other individuals in the workplace). Refer to Figure 2 for a representation of the typology of deviant behaviors based on the four types as well as examples of each type.\nFigure 2. Typology of Deviant Behaviors.\nThere are many terms used by researchers to refer to deviant work behaviors. Some are broad, while others take a narrower focus. In the following section, definitions are provided and distinctions made between many related constructs in this arena. The broad constructs are defined first, followed by narrower behavioral groups.\nCounterproductive work behavior (CWB: Fox & Spector, 1999) is one such broad term. CWB refers to intentional employee behavior that is harmful to employees because it reduces their work effectiveness as well as harmful to the organization by damaging its property (e.g., equipment and facilities) or negatively impacting its functioning (Fox, Spector, & Miles, 2001). Therefore, CWB is considered to be interchangeable with workplace deviance (e.g., Berry, Carpenter, & Barratt, 2012; Dalal, 2005). Like workplace deviance, CWB is dimensionalized based on target (organizational versus person) and severity (minor versus serious). CWB has been further divided from the two dimensions of organizational (CWB-O) and person counterproductive work behaviors (CWB-P or CWB-I) into five subscales: Abuse, Theft, Production Deviance, Withdrawal, and Sabotage (Spector et al., 2006). CWB-P is represented by the Abuse subscale, while CWB-O is comprised of the Theft, Production Deviance, Withdrawal, and Sabotage subscales. The division of CWB into five subscales is the only difference it has with workplace deviance (which is divided into two primary types and four subgroups), since their definitions are basically the same. Another broad term which overlaps with the construct of workplace deviance is antisocial behaviors in organizations (ABO), which Giacolone and Greenberg (1997) define as \u201cany behavior that brings harm or is intended to bring harm to an organization, its employees or stakeholders\u201d (p. vii). ABO differs from workplace deviance in that it doesn\u2019t specify the volitional nature of the behavior and includes the potential intention to harm, which WDB does not. Giacalone and Greenberg (1997) add that there are specific forms of ABO (e.g., litigation and whistleblowing) that have prosocial motivations.\nDiffering from WDB, CWB, and ABO are retaliation and revenge, which are a subset of behaviors whose definitions include intention to \u201cget back at\u201d a perceived slight. Revenge captures \u201can effort by the victim of harm to inflict damage, injury, discomfort, or punishment on the party judged responsible for causing the harm\u201d (Aquino, Tripp, & Bies, 2006, p. 654). Similarly, Skarlicki and Folger (1997) define organizational retaliation behavior as negative behaviors \u201cused to punish the organization and its representatives in response to perceived unfairness\u201d (p. 435). Therefore, the behaviors differ definitionally in that they follow distinct employee perceptions, with revenge broadly following harm and retaliation following perceived injustice. These constructs are often cited as means of social control, in that revenge can deter further acts from the harm-doer in the future (Bies & Tripp, 1996).\nSince the broad definitions of workplace deviance, antisocial organizational behaviors, and counterproductive workplace behaviors encompass a breadth of deviant workplace behavior constructs, many scholars have attempted to distinguish between, and even consolidate the number of, such constructs in the literature (e.g., Griffin & Lopez, 2005; Herschcovis, 2011; Tepper, 2000; Warren, 2003). A conceptual map of deviant work-related constructs is provided to demonstrate the overlap between these constructs, based on their definitions. The conceptual map is separated into groups of interpersonal deviant work-related constructs and organizational deviant work-related constructs (refer to Figure 3). The conceptual map shows that the majority of the constructs fall in the interpersonal deviance category and tend to be on the minor end of the severity dimension.\nFigure 3. Conceptual Concept Map of Deviant Behaviors.\nThe constructs in the deviant behavior literature that fall on the interpersonal deviance side of the spectrum include workplace incivility and workplace aggression as well as its different forms, which consist of workplace bullying, organizational mobbing, abusive supervision, social undermining, workplace victimization, workplace harassment, sexual harassment, and workplace violence (see also Spector et al., 2006 and Hershcovis, 2011). Most of these terms take the victim/target\u2019s perspective rather than providing an objective definition of the behavior. For example, definitions of these terms typically involve the perceptions of the target/victim of the actor\u2019s intentions, and the scale items are written from the point of view of the target of the behavior.\nWorkplace incivility refers to rude and discourteous behavior that employees believe are being displayed by other organizational members and demonstrate a lack of regard for norms of respect (Andersson & Pearson, 1999). Specifically, workplace incivility is manifested in low-intensity behaviors which have ambiguous intent to harm, where the target may not know whether or not the perpetrator intended to harm them. On the other hand, workplace aggression refers to behavior that intends to cause harm to another employee or group of organizational members (Baron & Neuman, 1996; Hershcovis et al., 2007). The primary difference between workplace incivility and workplace aggression (as well as its different forms) is the severity of the behavior. Many severe behaviors that might be labeled as workplace aggression (e.g., knocking a coworker to the ground or spreading a malicious rumor that results in a coworker getting fired) may have other causes, such as protecting the coworker from danger or revenge, and thus do not actually classify as workplace aggression, despite their appearances. Harm is assumed but not necessarily established; it may be a side effect and not the intention of the action. In both of these examples, the goal of the actor may have been safety and security of coworkers rather than harm. In the first, the target of the behavior might have been protected from worse harm by being pushed out of the way of a sharp piece of metal. In the second, the actor may have spread the malicious rumor in an attempt to rid the organization of someone abusing her power and to also send the signal to others that such behavior will not be tolerated (e.g., a social control technique: Bies, Tripp, & Kramer, 1997).\nWorkplace bullying involves an employee believing he or she is the target of consistent negative actions or mistreatment by another organizational member in the workplace and having difficulty in defending him- or herself against the ill-treatment, which results in the targeted employee experiencing harm, mainly emotional harm but sometimes physical harm (Hoel & Cooper, 2001; Rayner & Keashley, 2005). Since victims have difficulty defending themselves against the ill-treatment, it stands to reason that the perpetrators are often those with authority or power over the mistreated employee (such as their supervisor), but peers and subordinates may also be workplace bullies (Rayner & Cooper, 2006). Similar in definition to workplace bullying are organizational mobbing, workplace victimization, abusive supervision, and social undermining.\nOrganizational mobbing is workplace bullying or sustained hostility perceived to be experienced by one employee that is exhibited from two or more organizational members (Leymann, 1996). Workplace victimization refers to an employee\u2019s perception of aggressive behaviors from one or more other organizational members, whether sustained or momentary (Aquino & Bradfield, 2000). Abusive supervision refers to an employee\u2019s perception of receiving continuous hostile verbal and nonverbal behaviors from a supervisor, but no physical contact occurs (Tepper, 2000). Social undermining refers to \u201cbehaviors intended to hinder, over time, the ability to establish and maintain positive interpersonal relationships, work-related success, and favorable reputation\u201d (Duffy, Ganster, & Pagon, 2002, p. 332), which may be exhibited by supervisors, peers, or subordinates. Although the definition of social undermining seems to take the actor\u2019s perspective, since it mentions intentions to hinder, the scale items are from the target\u2019s perspective.\nOne of the differentiating factors among abusive supervision, organizational mobbing, workplace victimization, and social undermining involves the perpetrator, in that abusive supervision only views supervisors as perpetrators, while social undermining, organizational mobbing, and workplace victimization consider supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates all as potential perpetrators. Additionally, organizational mobbing, by definition, has multiple perpetrators, while social undermining and workplace victimization may potentially (but not necessarily) have more than one perpetrator, but abusive supervision only has one perpetrator (e.g., the supervisor). These constructs also differ based on intentions or objectives, in that with organizational mobbing, workplace victimization, and abusive supervision the intentions or objectives of the perpetrators or supervisor are unknown, but with social undermining the intentions or objectives are inferred, as they are to obstruct work-related relationships and success as well as to ruin the employee\u2019s reputation (Tepper, 2007). Since all of these constructs overlap in regards to continuous mistreatment of an employee and the target\u2019s perception of ill-treatment, \u201cbullying\u201d in the diagram represents workplace bullying, organizational mobbing, workplace victimization, abusive supervision, and social undermining.\nOther forms of workplace aggression include workplace harassment, sexual harassment, and workplace violence. These behaviors may overlap with organizational deviance when they result in legal liabilities for the company as a result of the employee\u2019s deviant behavior. Workplace harassment is repeated threatening behavior or offensive remarks directed toward an employee or group of employees, resulting in a hostile work environment (Ezer & Ezer, 2012). Generally, workplace harassment involves verbal abuse and discriminatory remarks about or towards a protected group under Title VII of the United States\u2019 Civil Rights Act, which places the employee or group of employees at a disadvantage in the workplace. Sexual harassment is defined by the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (1980) as \u201cunwelcome sexual advances, request for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature,\u201d such as offensive or derogatory remarks or sexual assault. Both workplace harassment and sexual harassment may occur by employees or individuals not employed with the organization, such as customers. Workplace violence refers to physical assaults directed toward an employee or group of employees with the intention of causing physical pain, injury, or death (Neuman & Baron, 1998). The majority of workplace violence incidents, however, are initiated by individuals not employed with the organization (e.g., customers or individuals with no legitimate business with the company) rather than employees (Baron & Neuman, 1996). Since these three constructs are similar in that they can occur by employees or individuals outside of the organization and may result in the organization\u2019s being sued for negligence, they are labelled \u201charassment\u201d in the conceptual map.\nOrganizational aggression refers to \u201cefforts by individuals to harm others with whom they work or have worked, or the organizations in which they are currently or were previously employed.\u201d (Neuman & Baron, 1997, p. 38). Therefore, organizational aggression includes only intentionally harmful behaviors, which is a narrower set than WDB, which includes behaviors where harm is or might be inadvertent. Since the definition of organizational aggression is very broad, many more-specific deviance constructs nest within it, such as workplace sabotage, organizational silence, organizational withdrawal, and theft.\nWorkplace sabotage refers to intentional employee actions that \u201cdamage, disrupt, or subvert the organization\u2019s operations for the personal purposes of the saboteur by creating unfavorable publicity, embarrassment, delays in production, damage to property, the destruction of working relationships, or the harming of employees or customers\u201d (Crino, 1994, p. 312). The target of organizational sabotage can be an individual, a group of individuals, or the organization, and it may also involve multiple targets (Ambrose, Seabright, & Schminke, 2002). Additionally, organizational sabotage may be performed overtly or covertly, in that other individuals or the organization may or may not be aware of the deviant action or who is engaging in the behavior. The results of organizational sabotage may be direct or indirect; thus, the effects of it may not be noticeable for an extended period of time. Since the definition extends to damaging workplace relationships and harming individuals (e.g., employees and customers), the construct also overlaps slightly with interpersonal deviance.\nOrganizational withdrawal refers to behaviors that reduce an employee\u2019s efforts to complete work role tasks, such as minimizing the time spent on job tasks or avoiding tasks altogether, while maintaining their current organizational and work-role memberships (Hanisch & Hulin, 1990, 1991). Acts of organizational withdrawal are highly visible and hence are difficult to conceal or to perform covertly. Examples of organizational withdrawal include absenteeism, coming in late, leaving early, reduced work effort, disregarding work tasks, working on personal matters rather than work tasks, taking longer breaks or lunches, and malingering. The most extreme form of organizational withdrawal is turnover. Using Hanisch and Hulin\u2019s definition of withdrawal casts it as a subset of Organizational Deviance with overlap outside of the boundary as well, since withdrawal may be due to (actual) illness or retirement as well. Broader definitions of withdrawal include other organizationally targeted behaviors such as theft in their measures (see, e.g., Lehman & Simpson, 1992), and hence result in a much stronger correlation between the two constructs (Carpenter & Berry, 2017). Withdrawal is a major component in the organizational WDB hierarchy. It is one of the key building blocks, but the construct of withdrawal does not contain property deviance behaviors such as sabotage and theft.\nOrganizational silence refers to employees intentionally or unintentionally withholding information, opinions, or concerns regarding the workplace and the organization (Morrison & Milliken, 2000). The refusal to provide information to the organization is a collective phenomenon in that most employees\u2019 dominant response is to remain silent rather than participate in \u201cvoice\u201d by expressing their thoughts, opinions, and needed information to the organization. Organizational silence may result from employees wanting to keep the status quo, groupthink, distrust of management, or the type of organizational structure (Khanifar et al., 2010). However, the intention of organizational silence tends to be ambiguous. Future studies may investigate the overlap between withdrawal and organizational silence. Organizational silence negatively affects organizations because it does not allow organizations to address issues, since they are unaware of them.\nOrganizational theft refers to an individual\u2019s taking or transferring an organization\u2019s money or property without authorization or permission and without the intent of returning it (Hollinger & Clark, 1983). Employees, customers, or other individuals with no legitimate business with the organization may all engage in organizational theft. Organizational theft conducted by employees may involve \u201csweethearting,\u201d altruistic property deviance, dumpster diving, or stealing money or equipment. \u201cSweethearting,\u201d or socially based theft, refers to employees giving away merchandise by pretending to scan the barcode on a register, not ringing up some of the merchandise, or giving a substantial discount for a \u201csweetheart\u201d customer, such as a friend or family member (Hawkins, 1984; Morris, 2005). Altruistic property deviance refers to employees giving away merchandise to coworkers at a substantial discount or no charge in an attempt to improve interpersonal work relationships (Hollinger, Slora, & Terris, 1992). Dumpster diving refers to an employee claiming merchandise as defective and throwing it into a dumpster from where the merchandise can be retrieved later. Employee theft may be viewed differently by employees and employers, especially in regards to \u201csweethearting\u201d and altruistic property deviance, in that employees may not view it as theft, since they are not personally keeping the \u201cstolen\u201d merchandise (Greenberg & Barling, 1996). However, all types of theft, whether performed by employees, customers, or individuals with no legitimate business with the company, are severe forms of organizational deviance due to their significant impact on an organization\u2019s success and profits.\nNumerous theories have been utilized to explain workplace deviance: justice theory (Adams, 1963; Leventhal, 1980; Lind & Tyler, 1988), social exchange theory (Blau, 1964), reactance theory (Brehm, 1966), frustration-aggression (Berkowitz, 1969, 1989; Spector, 1978, 1997), aggression (Neuman & Baron, 1997), and social information processing theory (Salancik & Pfeffer, 1978) are some of the most frequently utilized.\nJustice theory proposes that deviant workplace behaviors occur as a result of injustices experienced by employees. Individuals may engage in theft because they feel underpaid relative to coworkers who are contributing similar effort (Adams, 1963) or because they were not given an explanation for a pay cut (Greenberg, 1990). Meta-analyses on justice (Colquitt et al., 2001) and on workplace deviance (Berry et al., 2007; Dalal, 2005) show injustice as a primary cause of deviant workplace behavior.\nSocial exchange theory (Blau, 1964) argues that reciprocity occurs during an exchange process, where actions or behaviors are responded to in a similar manner to the original action or behavior (Blau, 1964; Cropanzano & Mitchell, 2005). Therefore, the theory suggests that social exchanges between two parties consist of multiple interactions that result in expectations of future reactions (due to reciprocal obligations) that are advantageous to each party (Blau, 1964; Cropanzano & Mitchell, 2005; Emerson, 1976). Accordingly, when the second party (e.g., the employee) experiences poor or negative treatment from the first party (e.g., the employing organization), the second party will most likely encounter an imbalance in the relationship (especially if the second party has been giving positive treatment to the first party). This discrepancy in treatment may cause the second party to resolve the negative treatment through retaliation by mimicking the first party\u2019s perceived ill-treatment by participating in workplace deviance (Browning, 2008; Gouldner, 1960; Uhl-Bien & Maslyn, 2003).\nReactance theory (Brehm, 1966) argues that an individual will engage in \u201creactance\u201d when he or she experiences a loss of autonomy such that freedom to make choices is interrupted. This \u201creactance\u201d is motivated by restoration of the individual\u2019s perception of control. Further, the theory suggests that when an individual feels restricted and unable to improve her situation, she may become frustrated, and thereby be more likely to engage in a negative and potentially destructive form of \u201creactance\u201d to make up for the loss of autonomy and frustration experienced (Mitchell et al., 2011; Rothbaum, Weisz, & Snyder, 1982; Spector, 1978). Engagement in workplace deviance or antisocial work behaviors is an example of a negative \u201creactance.\u201d\nFrustration-aggression theory outlines a framework by which employee frustration provokes workplace deviance behaviors. The theory suggests that an environmental frustrator will cause an employee to make a cognitive appraisal to determine whether this frustrator interferes with an individual\u2019s goals (Spector, 1997). A frustrator will lead an employee to experience frustration only when goal interference is perceived. Feelings of frustration are followed by a behavioral reaction that is not always antisocial behavior but can be inspired by emotions often associated with frustration, \u201cranging from minor annoyance to rage\u201d (Spector, 1997, p. 2). Many factors determine whether an environmental reaction will lead to antisocial behavior, and a literature review suggests that lack of perceived control and delinquent personality may increase the likelihood of an antisocial reaction to frustration (Spector, 1997).\nAggression theory seeks to explain the cognitive, emotional, and arousal states that function to determine whether an employee will engage in aggression following a negative workplace event (Nueman & Baron, 1997). Unfavorable workplace events such as work stressors or a violation of norms have a direct effect on individual cognitions, affect, and state of arousal. For example, this can be seen in the form of hostile thoughts, feelings of anger, and physiological arousal in reaction to aversive events. Following these reactions, individuals seek to make sense of their thoughts and feelings by assessing the causes of the negative event. Finally, individuals determine the appropriate response to the events by assessing what can and should be done. This includes considering consequences of their actions, alternative behaviors, and other situational information. Altogether, this process leads to a final decision of whether or not to engage in aggression.\nSocial information processing theory (Salancik & Pfeffer, 1978) suggests that individuals operate in a social environment and adopt attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors in order to make sense of complex social settings. In an organization, employees look to social cues such as interpersonal behaviors like leader behaviors and exchanges with peers to establish norms. Specific to deviance behaviors, research indicates that experiencing and witnessing negative events prompt more frequent sense-making searches. Therefore, social information processing theory has been used to explain the emergence of deviance climates such as abusive supervision climate (Priesmuth, Schminke, Ambrose, & Folger, 2014) because employees who witness and experience deviance will try to make sense of it by discussing it with coworkers and then come to shared conclusions about the negative behaviors, thus creating a climate where deviant behavior is normalized.\nPast research has investigated numerous situational, personal, and environmental factors to determine potential antecedents or predictors of workplace deviance or antisocial work behaviors. The main focus has been on situational and personal factors, with some studies integrating the two factors in models (e.g., Colbert et al., 2004; Henle, 2005; Judge, Scott, & Ilies, 2006; Kantur, 2010).\nThe situation-based perspective approaches organizational circumstances, treatment, and actions that occur within the workplace to be predictors of deviant behavior. The majority of these antecedents are within the organization\u2019s control. Some examples of situational predictors that have been identified for deviant behaviors are organizational structure (Marasi et al., 2018), boredom (Bruursema, Kessler, & Spector, 2011), stress (Fox et al., 2001; Neuman & Baron, 1998), group norms (Sieh, 1987), job satisfaction (Mangione & Quinn, 1975), abusive supervision (Tepper, Duffy, & Shaw, 2001), and injustice perceptions (e.g., Colbert et al., 2004), especially for interpersonal injustice (e.g., Henle, 2005; Judge, Scott, & Ilies, 2006).\nThe person-based perspective views deviant behaviors as an outcome of the employee\u2019s personality, emotions, or characteristics. Some examples of personal antecedents include personality (Colbert et al., 2004; Judge, LePine, & Rich, 2006), especially conscientiousness and agreeableness (Mount, Ilies, & Johnson, 2006; Salgado, 2002), negative emotions (Lee & Allen, 2002; Spector & Fox, 2002), negative affectivity (Richards & Schat, 2011), cognitive ability (Dilchert et al., 2007), low moral standards (Merriam, 1977), narcissism (Castille, Kuyumcu, & Bennett, 2016; Judge, LePine, & Rich, 2006; Penney & Spector, 2002), age (Berry et al., 2007; Ng & Feldman, 2008), and gender (Hershcovis et al., 2007).\nThe main technique used to study workplace deviance is anonymous self-report measures because individuals are not likely to share their level of participation in deviant behaviors with others (Spector, 1992; Bennett & Robinson, 2000). This method has been shown to yield the most honest and trustworthy reports of workplace deviance engagement among employees, because complete anonymity can be guaranteed due to third-party online survey organizations (e.g., Amazon\u2019s Mechanical Turk, Survey Monkey, and Qualtrics) where participants\u2019 employing organization is not collected and their identity is not provided to the researcher. Since no identifying information is provided to the researcher, this method has been shown to minimize social desirability effects over more traditional survey or interview methods. Nonetheless, respondents may have the illusion of anonymity, when actually their identity can be easily deciphered from their computer\u2019s unique IP address.\nThere are two main scales used to measure deviant behaviors. The scales are Bennett and Robinson\u2019s (2000) Workplace Deviance Scale and Spector and colleagues\u2019 (Spector et al., 2006) Counterproductive Work Behavior Checklist.\nThe Workplace Deviance scale (Bennett & Robinson, 2000) is a 19-item scale, with seven items representing Interpersonal Deviance and Organizational Deviance consisting of 12 items. The scale can be further divided into four types of workplace deviance: production deviance, property deviance, political deviance, and personal aggression; however, the four types are rarely used as stand-alone, independent measures. The majority of studies that utilize this scale either analyze workplace deviance overall or divide it into the two main dimensions, interpersonal deviance and organizational deviance.\nThe Counterproductive Work Behavior (CWB) Checklist is commonly measured using a 33-item scale (Spector et al., 2006). However, the original CWB Checklist consists of 64 items (Fox et al., 2001). This scale can be divided into organizational (CWB-O), which consists of 15 items, and person counterproductive work behaviors (CWB-P or CWB-I), comprised of 18 items. The CWB Checklist can be further divided into five subscales: Abuse (18 items representing CWB-P), Theft (five items indicating CWB-O), Production Deviance (three items included in CWB-O), Withdrawal (four items representing CWB-O), and Sabotage (three items indicating CWB-O).\nAnother technique involves having the participants\u2019 immediate supervisor or coworkers/peers complete the workplace deviance measure. Some researchers utilize the 15-item Non-Self-Report Workplace Deviance scale developed by Stewart and colleagues (Stewart et al., 2009) or transform the original Workplace Deviance scale or the CWB Checklist from a self-report measure to a third-party measure (e.g., Berry et al., 2012; Fox et al., 2007; Mann, Budworth, & Ismaila, 2012). Although this method eliminates common method variance and possibly social desirability bias, there are potential limitations to using this method. First, supervisors may not be aware of the employee\u2019s level of engagement in deviant behaviors and therefore cannot give an accurate representation of the employee\u2019s workplace deviance participation, thereby causing deviance to be underreported. Another limitation of this method is that the supervisor may desire to make him- or herself appear to be a good supervisor (one who does not have employees who engage in deviant behaviors) and hence may underreport or overlook employee\u2019s deviant behaviors. Workplace peers would have a firsthand view of their coworker\u2019s behavior and may be more inclined to give an accurate report of the behaviors. On the other hand, they may also be inclined to justify or cover up a liked coworker\u2019s deviant behavior.\nA question regarding deviant behavior measurement involves the anchors or scale points used. For instance, some researchers use frequency scale points, while other use agreement scale points. Spector, Bauer, and Fox (2010) argue, based on convincing empirical evidence, that anchors or scale points for deviant behavior scales should be based on frequency (e.g., daily to once a year or frequently to never) rather than agreement scales (e.g., \u201cI highly agree/disagree that I frequently engage in this behavior\u201d).\nWorkplace deviance is defined as relative to norms of the dominant organizational culture. A question frequently asked is \u201cWhat if the dominant culture does not consider lying/stealing from your boss to be \u2018deviant\u2019?\u201d Robinson and Bennett (1995, 1997; Bennett & Robinson, 2000, 2003) have repeatedly pointed out that the focus should be on the violation of general norms that threaten the well-being of the organization, its members, or both. Hence, this is a moot point, as even in the mafia, stealing from and lying to the boss/organization are frowned upon. \u201cNot following the boss\u2019s orders,\u201d which is and would still be considered workplace deviance, may, however, be considered ethical behavior in a criminal organization or a legitimate organization engaging in illegal or unethical behavior. Consequently, whether an organization is \u201cgood\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d does not affect the definition of deviance and measurement of deviance.\nIt may be the case, however, that for the less serious behaviors, culture may impose boundary conditions on what is considered \u201cdeviant.\u201d In Mediterranean cultures, timeliness is less important than it is in Northern European and Western cultures. Therefore, taking a longer lunch break is expected, and not considered deviant in these cultures. Another difference with some Middle Eastern cultures involves male employees taking time off to take their wives (who are not allowed to drive alone) on personal errands during the workday, whereas in the United States, this would be considered \u201cdeviant\u201d workplace behavior. For this reason, behavioral check lists are not universally generalizable across cultures and may need to be adapted.\nIf cultures/countries differ in what is considered to be \u201cdeviant,\u201d it may be acceptable to drop, add, or modify the deviant behavior scale items. Within a culture/country, depending on the employees and organization participating in the study, dropping, adding, or modifying items may be necessary as well. Many previous studies have altered the scale items to different extents with no interpretation issues occurring (e.g., Marasi, 2014; Marasi et al., 2018). Researchers may find it beneficial to add items to the Workplace Deviance scale or CWB Checklist because of a particular work environment or to get a better understanding of the participants\u2019 engagement in different deviant behaviors. For instance, the healthcare industry may have unique behaviors that are considered deviant, such as not washing hands before interacting with a patient (customer). On the other hand, a few of the deviant behavior items may not apply to all employees or participants, such as \u201caccepting kickbacks\u201d or \u201cmisusing expense account,\u201d and therefore, it is acceptable to drop these items from the scale or offer a \u201cNot Applicable\u201d option, which is represented by a zero on the scale.\nThe number of deviant behavior dimensions is another concern. Bennett and Robinson\u2019s (2000) analyses suggested that there were two main dimensions: interpersonal and organizational deviance. However, Robinson and Bennett (1995) identified four types of workplace deviance, which are based on the two main dimensions and then subdivided into minor versus serious deviant behaviors. The two organizational deviance types are production deviance (minor) and property deviance (serious), whereas the interpersonal deviance types are political deviance (minor) and personal aggression (serious). Additionally, the CWB Checklist divides into two main dimensions, person and organizational, but can also be subdivided into five types. However, the most common method utilized in the literature for the dimensionality of deviant behaviors is based on the two main dimensions, interpersonal and organizational deviance. There is relatively little research utilizing the four types of the Workplace Deviance scale and the five subscales of the CWB Checklist.\nAnother controversial issue is whether workplace deviance is good or bad for individuals. Tripp and Bies (2009) have argued that workplace deviance that is born from revenge can be cathartic for victims and observers, as it returns a sense of justice. Of course, it can also escalate. Research on forgiveness, on the other hand, suggests that failing to engage in retaliation (e.g., forgiving) can result in performance declines in the work group, as slacking off goes unpunished (Cox, 2008; Cox et al., 2012). Research on revenge and forgiveness provides intriguing fodder for contemplating whether deviance for the sake of revenge is good or bad, and for whom.\nA final controversy with the deviant behavior scales involves their reliability and average variance extracted (AVE) in structural equation modeling. This is mainly due to the scale\u2019s item content and scale points (regardless of which measure is used, such as the Workplace Deviance scale or CWB Checklist). Generally, the scale\u2019s reliability is rather high for the overall workplace deviance construct and its two main dimensions; however, the AVE tends to fall below minimum standards. This is expected because each item represents a completely separate deviant behavior and therefore it is feasible that an employee may participate in one item or deviant behavior but not in another deviant behavior (Marasi, Cox, & Bennett, 2016). For instance, an employee may engage in workplace deviance by withdrawing effort on the job but may not steal from the organization or leave work early. Another cause is the usage of a frequency scale, which is not equidistant, in that the distance between each scale point is not equal\u2014since the scale points of 1 (daily), 2 (weekly), 3 (monthly) are not equivalent in time\u2014nor symmetrical, in that there is not an equal number of positive and negative scale points with respective distances from the neutral scale point, whether the neutral scale point is presented as an option or not. Thus, a frequency scale may lead standardized loading estimates produced from structural equation modeling to be appropriate but lower than other constructs (Marasi et al., 2016). Therefore, it is expected and normal for any of the scales measuring deviant behaviors to be high in reliability and low in AVE, without the results being flawed or misinterpreted.\nA thematic issue throughout this essay is that workplace deviance is both a behavior and a perception. Further research should investigate the implications of labeling employees\u2019 behaviors as deviant. Does behaving in a way that observers label as deviant cause an employee to become a deviant individual? Do those who are labeled as behaving badly self-identify as deviant and then live up to their label? Is the employee deviant or is only their behavior deviant? Is there another option? Do their intentions matter? What if the deviance is well-intended (e.g., the drug-dealing father in the TV series Breaking Bad, who is just trying to take care of his family), or what if it is just one small part of an otherwise honorable person (e.g., the drug-abusing but otherwise wonderful Nurse Jackie in the TV series by the same name). Does it matter if the whistleblower desires to get his or her boss fired and for the company to go bankrupt or if he or she really wants to do the \u201cright thing\u201d and help society?\nA similar question arises with victims of interpersonal deviance. Is the subordinate who experiences bullying or abusive supervision really a victim, or might they be a slacking employee, part of a work team who isn\u2019t pulling his or her weight? Might they be considered rude and uncivil by their colleagues and hence reap workplace aggression as a result? How do we know which antisocial behavior came first? Who is the real victim in a workplace incivility or deviant behavior spiral?\nWorkplace deviance is a complex construct, consisting of various forms and types. The literature shows that it is a major problem for organizations worldwide and will continue to be, since the participation rates in various forms has increased over time. Therefore, the importance and continuation of workplace deviance research is expected. However, additional theoretical foundations and outcomes of workplace deviance are needed to enhance the literature.\nAdams, J. S. (1963). Towards an understanding of inequity.

More\nBoth Ecuador and Bolivia have gained a reputation for powerful social movements that have repeatedly challenged entrenched political and economic interests that have controlled the countries since their independence from Spain almost two hundred years ago. A wealthy and powerful minority of European descendant landowners ruled the countries to the exclusion of the majority population of impoverished Indigenous farm workers. Repeated well-organized challenges to exclusionary rule in the late 20th century shifted policies and opened political spaces for previously marginalized people. Social movement organizations also altered their language to meet new realities, including incorporating identities as ethnic groups and Indigenous nationalities to advance their agenda. Their efforts contributed to a significant leftward shift in political discourse that led to the election of presidents Evo Morales and Rafael Correa.",

        "title": "Your First Cigar",
        "raw_content": "by Steve Payne on October 2, 2017 in News\nMany times at cigar rolling events we get approached by people who have never enjoyed a cigar before, but because of the circumstances, decide they want to try one. This is especially true when our Concierges and rollers are there to help guide them through it.\nBut what if you decide on your own to give it a try? What advice can we offer?\nWell, let\u2019s go over a couple of basics\u2026\nOne, and it\u2019s a biggie: You DON\u2019T inhale smoke from a cigar like you do a cigarette. Cigar smoke is generated from long-leaf, almost whole tobacco leaves and is much stronger than the small tobacco bits found in a cigarette. The ideal way to enjoy a cigar is to draw the smoke into your mouth using the palate, cheeks and tongue, let it roll around for a minute to get the aromas and flavors, and then gently let it out and away. Inhaling, especially if you\u2019re a beginner, will turn you green for sure!\nSecond, a little etiquette. Even though cigars are best enjoyed as a social interaction, it is impolite to blow or let your smoke drift into another person\u2019s face. Yes, we all know it\u2019s going to happen and expect it, but if you watch experienced cigar smokers, you will see they do their best to route the smoke away from those around them, usually straight up if possible.\nNow, on to picking your first cigar. In general, and without getting into too much detail, the lighter the wrapper, the more mild the smoke. There are many factors to this, so it is a VERY general statement. Most light wrappers come from Connecticut, and are called Natural. The wrapper is responsible for between 30-40% of the flavor of a cigar. One characteristic of a light wrapper though, is it can carry a tiny bit of spiciness, which usually isn\u2019t a bad thing.\nDarker cigar wrappers, your Corojos and Maduros, have more flavor, and even some natural sweetness, but for a first time smoker they can also be a bit powerful. Properly aged tobaccos aren\u2019t as strong as the young tobacco leaves you find in most cigar store brands, but as a general rule they have more of a full body. I will tell you though, a good Corojo or Maduro (the darkest leaves) are worth working your way up to.\nThere are so many choices when it comes to picking your first cigar, it can seem overwhelming. If you have a good friend to help you, or find yourself at an event where cigars are being provided (especially when there are knowledgeable experts around), ask for help. Most aficionados are glad to help newcomers to the sport.\nfirst cigar",

        "raw_content": "Home\u203aBlogs\u203aPeter Meehan's blog\n8 of the most audience-dividing, polarising films of all time\nMother!, Eyes Wide Shut, Stanley Kubrick, Crash, The Tree of Life, Terrence Malick, Watchmen, Boyhood, Richard Linklater, A.I. Artificial Intelligence, signs, M. Night Shyamalan, Avatar, James Cameron\nDarren Aronofsky's new film Mother! has seen audiences and critics divided over whether it is a ground-breaking thriller, or a dull, convoluted mess.\nCinema is littered with films that have as many detractors as they have fans, and here is a list of eight of the biggest films to polarise audiences since the year 2000...\nEyes-Wide-Shut.jpg\nThe last film that legendary director Stanley Kubrick finished, and was released after his death starred real-life couple Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman as an unhappily married couple, as the husband infiltrates a secret society's masked orgy in the tale of scandal, sex and paranoia.\nDepending on who you ask, the film is either beautifully shot or crushingly boring and slow-paced, the tension and paranoia are either overwhelmingly primal, or non-existent, while the main characters either deliver excellent performances or play ridiculously sexually-naive characters.\nBoth sides of the argument would be in agreement that Kubrick wanted to use his incredible attention-to-detail and directing skills to create a beautifully-shot Venetian masked orgy scene, and grossing $162 million worldwide, there's no denying that he got audiences into cinemas, but whether they were pleased with what they were watching depends on each viewer.\nCrash-(2004).jpg\nA star-studded ensemble cast, including Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, Michael Pe\u00f1a, Ryan Phillippe and Ludacris featured in a series of interweaving stories of racial prejudice dished out and/or received by a whole host of different characters in modern-day Los Angeles.\nThe film's intense moral message of bigotry and xenophobia struck home with some, who were unsettled by the portrayal of abuse and disconnect between people of different standings and backgrounds, while many decried that the 'good or evil' depiction of racism had all the subtlety of a sledgehammer.\nDespite the staunchly divided opinions of fans and critics, Crash picked up the Best Picture Oscar, controversially beating Brokeback Mountain to the prize and has gone on to be labelled as the worst Best Picture winner of all time, and even its director Paul Haggis agreed that it shouldn't have won.\nThe-Tree-of-Life.jpg\nAuteur director Terrence Malick is, by his very nature, a divisive director, his films The Thin Red Line, Days of Heaven and The New World have polarised viewers who either love his experimental existential approach, or hate his meandering, unfocused output.\nBut with 2011's The Tree of Life, Malick took it to the next polarising level, as he chronicles the meaning of life through a middle-aged man's childhood memories, which was both booed and applauded at its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, going on to pick up the prestigious Palme d'Or - the festival's top prize.\nPraised from some quarters for its beautiful, far-reaching and ambitious story on the very concept of existence, some decried the non-linear story for being painfully slow, incoherent and pretentiously self-absorbed - signs were memorably posted outside theatres with advice that potential viewers read up on the film before watching.\nWatchmen.jpg\nAlan Moore and Dave Gibbons' far-reaching, non-linear, satirical comic book set in an alternate history which saw America win the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal never happened, is regarded by many as the greatest comic book series of all time.\nThe unenviable task of converting the 12 issues into a coherent and watchable movie fell on the shoulders of Zack Snyder, who delivered a two hour and 42 minute sprawling, ambitious superhero story that split audiences and critics down the middle.\nVisually striking and boasting one of the finest opening credits in film history, Snyder's convoluted movie didn't do much to recruit new fans into the fold, while Watchmen diehards either thought it was a visceral, ambitious triumph, or the stuffy and hollow onscreen results proved that it should have been left well alone to begin with.\nBoyhood-(2014).jpg\nRichard Linklater's unique premise of shooting scenes every year over 12 years to see a six-year-old boy grow into an adult in front of our eyes received incredible amounts of hype in the build-up to its release.\nUpon its release, people were bowled over by the brilliant realisation of Linklater's idea, and it topped many film critics' list of best films of the year as well as picking up six Oscar nominations.\nHowever, once the initial excitement had waned, many saw through the film's impressive concept that it was actually a fairly run-of-the-mill drama, and the only Oscar that it went on to receive was Best Supporting Actress - proving that the Academy were as divided about Boyhood as most of the people who had watched it.\nA.I.-Artificial-Intelligence.jpg\nStanley Kubrick had been planning the story of a robotic boy who dreams of becoming 'real' since the early '70s, but due to CGI restraints, didn't pursue it, before handing it over to Steven Spielberg in 1995 who set to work on getting it to the big screen in 1999.\nSpielberg cast The Sixth Sense child actor Hayley Joel Osment to play the robo-Pinocchio David alongside a talented cast including Jude Law, William Hurt and Brendan Gleeson, as it grossed over $230 million worldwide.\nFans and critics were divided on the matter, with praise towards the inventive, intriguing masterpiece that explores ideas of what it means to be human; meanwhile, detractors rubbished the meandering, boring film that looked like Spielberg was unnecessarily and ineffectively trying to pay homage to the late, great Kubrick.\nM. Night Shyamalan's third major directorial effort, after the phenomenal The Sixth Sense and understated superhero cult classic Unbreakable, was the story of a priest who has lost his faith as the planet is visited by aliens.\nWith his previous two films utilising huge twist endings, when a Signs twist never materialised, some expectant audiences were disappointed at the lack of pay-off, while others were pleased that Shyamalan had averting expectations by dispensing with a twist.\nOverall, some fans enjoyed the sustained tension throughout the film and dubbed Shyamalan a master filmmaker, however disappointed viewers were bored by the lack of thrills, and pointed at massive plot holes, including the aliens' aversion to water while visiting a planet made up of 70 percent water.\nJames Cameron's epic sci-fi movie was ground-breaking in becoming the first major 3D release, and its extensive use of motion-capture to create the world of Pandora earned it nine Oscar nominations, going home with three statuettes.\nThe story of a paraplegic marine entering the moon Pandora in order to mine for the valuable mineral unobtanium became the highest-grossing film of all time, and heralded by fans for being visually stunning as it created a modern sci-fi classic comparable to the immense universe of Star Wars.\nCameron's story has been criticised for stealing the plot of Pocahontas or Dances with Wolves, and how it fits the trope of the 'white saviour' saving the 'backwards' native people.\nJames Cameron is still pushing ahead with three Avatar sequels, which - owing to the fallout from the original - won't be attended by many viewers of the original.",

        "raw_content": "Mount Greylock War Memorial Nationally Designated\n02:27AM / Friday, April 27, 2018\nPark Supervisor Travis Clairmont told the council at its quarterly meeting that the hope is have Mount Greylock State Reservation open by May 17, weather permitting.\nLANESBOROUGH, Mass. \u2014 The Mount Greylock War Memorial has been designated as a National World War I Monument.\nBecky Barnes, trails coordinator for the state Department of Conservation and Recreation told the Mount Greylock Advisory Council on Thursday that she applied for designation through the U.S. World War One Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum and Library.\n\"They selected 100 ... and they selected Mount Greylock as one of those, so we are designated as a National War Memorial, which is cool,\" Barnes said.\nBarnes said there are grant funds affiliated with the designation and she hopes to use them to fix the weather station and webcam on the summit. The U.S. World War I Centennial Commission is offering $2,000 in matching grants toward restoration and conservation of each the monuments.\nThe tower is a state project built in the 1930s but had been under discussion since the end of the war. Early proposals had called for a memorial in the Boston area but the Mount Greylock, the state's highest point, won out thanks in part to then state Sen. Theodore Plunkett of Adams. The 93-foot tall tower cost $200,000 and its 1933 dedication was a national radio broadcast.\nFour other Massachusetts monuments were also recognized: the Harvard World War I Monument, the Godfrey Triangle World War I Monument in Indian Orchard, the Wellesley Memorial Grove in Wellesley Hills and the Memorial Grove at Green Hill Park in Worcester.\nNearly 200,000 Massachusetts residents served in the war and 5,775 were direct casualties. Nov. 11, 1918, will mark the 100th anniversary of the war's end.\nPark Supervisor Travis Clairmont said he hopes to be able to open the park May 17 \u2013 weather permitting.\n\"Last week that looked impossible. This week it still looked unlikely, but we did have a rapid snow melt on the mountain this week,\" he said. \"If we can get that kind of melt going on this coming week we may be able to meet that target ... I still have the plows on the trucks because I just don't trust it.\"\nEven if the state reservation opens on May 17, the opening of Bascom Lodge at the summit is anticipated to be delayed. Because of the heavy snow, preparation work for the season has yet to be done.\nClairmont updated the council on what happened on the reservation during the winter months and said there were three emergency rescues.\nHe added that because of communication issues between local emergency services and DCR there may have been more.\n\"The communication is not necessarily the best between emergency responders,\" he said. \"There may be more we are simply unaware of.\"\nClairmont said he has brought up the situation to local first responders but it doesn't seem to make a difference. He added Lanesborough first responders contact DCR but otherwise, he just listens in on the radio to see if DCR's assistance is needed.\nDCR District Manager Mark Jester said it is a statewide issue.\nClairmont added that DCR was assisted by the Thunderbolt Ski Runners during two of the rescues.\nCouncil member Steve Blazejewski said the volunteers were informed by the Adams Police Department that someone was stuck on the mountain and dispatched.\nHe said both rescues were under three hours.\nBarnes said typically it would take DCR four to five hours to conduct a similar rescue on their own.\n\"We certainly learned a lot with these two incidents,\" Barnes said. \"Communication was improved between volunteers, our staff, and emergency responders.\"\nBlazejewski added that the Ski Runners are working on protocols with emergency services so they can assist in future rescues\nIn other business, Chairman Cosmo Catalano said he did receive correspondence from state Sen. Adam Hinds and state Rep. John Barrett III and although they could not make any promises about securing funds for more staffing, they are aware of the staffing issues on the mountain.\n\"There is nothing earth-shattering here, and they did not jump up and say here is some full-time staff,\" he said. \"But our local folks are hearing us and pushing it up the chain and that is as good as it is going to get.\"\nThe committee was concerned at its last meeting because the visitors center cannot be staffed throughout the year. The center on Rockwell Road is only open on weekends from mid-March to late April.\nClairmont said he thinks it is important to have the building staffed so visitors always have someone to make contact with before venturing into the reservation.\n\"Over the past few weeks, I have seen a substantial amount of visitors coming in, some of them aren't prepared,\" Clairmont said. \"They had sneakers on ready to go for a walk and they got a quarter of a mile in and they hit 2 feet of snow. Without someone here, that is a recipe for disaster.\"\nBefore closing, Catalano welcomed new member Heather Linscott but noted that they are still in need of a Cheshire representative.",

        "title": "Bigelf - Into the Maelstrom",
        "raw_content": "Well, I'm at a loss on what to say about this new release from Bigelf. \"Into the Maelstrom\" is an interesting album with highs and lows, and plenty in between, too. Bigelf has something of a cult following, and it's been a long 5 years since their last album. So, I think the expectations and anticipation are pretty high, especially with Mike Portnoy stepping in to take over on drums.\nI'm going to be honest. Maybe I just don't like Bigelf's style, or maybe it's just this album, but my first experience with them has been one of annoyance. \"Into the Maelstrom\" is annoying. It's boisterous. It's impossibly over the top, brick-walled, and devoted to fun. That may appeal to many out there, but it is a big turn off for me. I find the songs to be repetitive affairs that generally focus on sounding retro. I have no idea why this is labeled progressive at all, as they must barely ride the edge.\nTheir style is certainly influenced by Black Sabbath. Everything from the low, groovy guitars to the annoying vocals are taken straight from these metal masters. Bigelf adds just enough strangeness and eeriness to make a sound that is all their own, but the classic rock/metal underpinnings are definitely the foundation for everything else. Because of this, the instrumentals (very few) are rather predictable and sound like something I've heard a million times. This is especially true for the guitars and bass.\nI do, however, really enjoy the keys. I found the mix of organs and atmospheric synth to be delightful and a huge elevation for the rest of the music. Portnoy does a decent job on this record, though his drumming is more or less by the numbers. There are few fills and such that I found really good, though. All in all, I found nothing special at all about the instrumentals or any of the performances.\nThe album is made up of a bunch of catchy songs. I was really surprised at this. Consequently, I find most of them disappointing, unsatisfying, and downright abrasive. \"Control Freak\" and \"Edge of Oblivion\" come to mind here, as they are big, pounding, shallow affairs. There are some good songs on here, but almost no great or excellent songs. I really like the track \"Alien Frequency\" with its interesting keys and its more complex structure. The rest of the songs? They're okay. Most of the tracks on \"Into the Maelstrom\" sound much the same, as I even kept checking because I thought that I might have hit the \"repeat\" button or something.\nIs this a terrible album? No. Not really. It's just so darn irritating and boring. It sounds like an Ozzy Osbourne record sometimes. If that sounds good to you, then you'll enjoy this. If not, then stay far away from it.\n01.

        "title": "Genius, Creativity and Savantism - Professor Michael Fitzgerald",
        "raw_content": "Genius, Creativity and Savantism\nPersons with High Functioning Autism or Asperger\u2019s syndrome can show considerable creativity. Indeed they have the capacity for extreme creativity in a small number of cases. Evidence of minor creativity would be more common. The features of autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome that would enhance creativity would include intense focus on narrow interests. It is rarely possible to make major advances in science without this narrow intense focus. The lack of interest in emotional issues means that there is far more time available for intellectual mathematical, philosophical, and other scientific pursuits. Their time is not taken up with interpersonal relationships and with ordinary everyday life. They are often workaholics and their whole life is devoted to their creative pursuit. Persons with autism often have abnormal brain functioning and indeed brain structure and these deficits in some way enhance creativity. This kind of creativity has genetic underpinning of a type that has not yet been fully elucidated. Heritability factors account for about 93% of the variants in the aetiology of autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. The following are some examples of this creativity.\nHenry Cavendish (1731 \u2013 1810) had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He was an enormously successful scientist. He had enormous difficulties in interpersonal relationships. He was a man of enormous routines and regularities in his conduct of his life. He was very poor at speech making. Nevertheless he could be very precise in his use of language. He lacked empathy in interpersonal relationships and Berry notes Cavendish\u2019s \u201cstriking deficiencies as a human being\u201d. Indeed \u201chis habitual profound withdrawal lead one contemporary to characterise him as \u2018the coldest and most indifferent of mortals\u2019\u201d. He had an awkward gait and there is absolutely no doubt that like Newton and Einstein he had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome.\nCharles Babbage (1792 \u2013 1871) also had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He was the father of the modern computer. He was an autodictat. He spent a great deal of his life trying to build calculating machines. The first one was called a \u2018difference engine\u2019 and the second an \u2018analytical engine\u2019. According to Swade Babbage\u2019s engine \u2018gave new impetus to the notion of a \u201cthinking machine\u201d and stimulated the debate about the relationship between the mind and physical mechanism\u2019. He had major problems in interpersonal relationships. He worked largely in isolation. He had a socially immature personality not uncommon in persons with High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He suffered from anxiety and depression. He was an excellent mathematician. He was described as an eccentric and comic figure. He was na\u00efve and showed a lack of commonsense.\nArchimedes (C 287 \u2013 212 BC) also had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He was an extremely eccentric individual spending as much of his life isolated in solitary. He had a good mechanical mind. He invented what is called the Archimedes screw for pumping water which is still used to this day. He was highly regarded as an engineer and inventor. He only liked to talk to mathematicians. He was the discoverer of what is called the Archimedes principal i.e. that the floating body will displace its own weight in fluid. He was an obsessive mathematician. He neglected his personal hygiene. Like Newton he left his meals untouched when he was deep in mathematics.\nNorbert Wiener (1894 \u2013 1964) was another mathematician with High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He was an autodictat, a linguist, and a rather absent minded professor. He was a socially immature child. He lacked empathy and was tactless with people. He was rather a lone wolf and was uncertain about how to conduct conversations. He was a very poor teacher. He was very routine bound. He was a rather clumsy child which is not uncommon with HFA / ASP and indeed like many others he suffered from anxiety and depression. He was described as being very eccentric.\nNikola Tesla was a famous electrical inventor who had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He had a photographic memory. He was a linguist. He was an avid reader. He had an obsessive compulsive personality type. He was an autodictat. He had major difficulties in social relationships, was socially immature and na\u00efve. He was extremely controlling and spoke with a high pitched voice. He was extremely na\u00efve in dealing with people who would finance his inventions. He was very much a loner and remained unmarried and was extremely interested in pigeons. He had no capacity to manage money. His main interest was in inventions. He was the inventor of radio among many other things.\nThe mathematician David Hilbert (1862 \u2013 1943) had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He was a great mathematician. He showed eccentric interpersonal behaviour and was socially immature. His only interest was in discussing mathematical subjects. He showed extreme self control. Routines were extremely important to him. He tended to show repetitive language. Nevertheless he was very precise in his use of words. He showed lack of empathy. He believed no scientist should marry. He suffered from anxiety and depression.\nThe great English mathematician G. H. Hardy had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He was a very eccentric man who never married. Routine was extremely important to him. His great interest in life was mathematics. He loved cats. He was extremely honest in his behaviour. Later he suffered from depression and attempted suicide. Attempting suicide is not uncommon in persons with High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome.\nDimitri Mendeleyev who developed the periodic table in chemistry had High Functioning Autism / Asperger\u2019s syndrome. He had major difficulties in interpersonal relationships. He was most eccentric looking. He cut his hair once a year. He had tremendous focus on chemistry and on chemical elements and it was this intense focus that brought him success. Like so many successful people with HFA / ASP he performed poorly in school.\nThe most classic person of all with Asperger\u2019s syndrome was Edward Teller the father of the H Bomb and the subject of a recent book called Edward Teller \u2013 The Real Strangelove from Harvard University Press.\nAsperger\u2019s syndrome is characterised by avoidance of eye contact, problems reading non-verbal behaviour, being a loner with a lack of social know-how, having problems sharing thoughts, and problems with empathy. They often speak with a high pitched or unusual tone of voice and repeat phrases. Gillberg calculates that 0.3% to 0.5% of the population has it. they like routine and have preservation of sameness. As children they often line things up, flap their hands, and are fussy eaters. They often have narrow obsessive interests in engineering, mechanics, astronomy, science, palaeontology, etc. It is one of the most missed diagnosis in adult psychiatry. They are misdiagnosed as Schizophrenia Personality Disorder and a wide variety of other diagnosis. This leads to inappropriate treatments which only aggravate the situation. hopefully the Irish Psychiatric Association, Irish College of Psychiatrists, and the Mental Health Commission will examine the issue. Psychiatric CPD has failed in relation to Asperger\u2019s syndrome and indeed adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder which in reliable epidemiological studies in USA affects 4.4% of the population.\nPrevious Post: A Road to Homicide in Ireland\nNext Post: Effects of Substance Abuse on Children.",

However, the lift doesn\u2019t really bring you to the topmost floor. You\u2019ll have to climb some steps to go to the uppermost part. The elevator is too small and the steps are too narrow. That\u2019s why, you can\u2019t go up there anytime you want. You have to follow the time you\u2019re scheduled to go.\nAnd by the way, you have to pay a separate fee for this. It\u2019s not included in the general admission. You also have to remember that since the area is too narrow, you won\u2019t be able to take a picture of yourself with the city\u2019s skyline in the background.\nIt is so much better to book your visit online so you can choose the time that\u2019s convenient for you.\nOut of the 18 towers, only 8 are currently completed. You can\u2019t go to all of these towers. When buying the ticket, you have to choose between the Passion Towers and Nativity Towers. You also can\u2019t use the elevator to descend but the steps only. So, if you have mobility problems, this might be a difficult task for you. Children younger than 6 aren\u2019t allowed to go up.\nCatalunya Gay Travel Resources\nCategories: Alain - The Sojourner, Barcelona, Columnists, Europe, Gay Travel, Spain Tags: alain, barcelona, sagrada familia, spain, view",

Don't you just love my costume.\nHere's a version with one red contact lens and one green one.\nI've been feeling much better lately and wanted to thank everyone for their words of encouragement while I was sick.\nThe first year we lived here we put mums, corn stalks, pumpkins, hay, a scarecrow and Indian corn in the woods in front of the house.\nThen, every evening I'd drive around the neighbor hood just to verify that our house had the nicest fall display.\nNow, four years later, I've gotten over myself, but still put out the display. It makes a nice transition between the summer flowers and the winter snow.\nRest in Peace Jack Sullivan\nA couple of months ago, when I learned Jack Sullivan had cancer, I went to visit him. Sitting in his room at the assisted living facility, he was smaller than I remember him being. But then, I've probably built him up in my mind in the years since I last saw him.\nI knew him as JG; my boss from 1988 - 1996. He liked to tell the story of my hiring as him rescuing me from the gas station. In reality, I had just lost my job at a radio station, after the new owners replaced the entire staff. And, I had picked up a part time job doing the books at a gas station. I wasn't anxious to go to work for another radio station; I wanted to do something more. In high school I had worked at a newspaper and in college I had worked at a TV station. I liked it all -- radio, TV and newspaper. I started thinking there should be something out there that would let me be involved in all three. Turns out working at an advertising agency was the answer. I sent my resume to two agencies and was offered jobs at both. Not sure where I'd be today if I had selected the other one... not even sure they're still in business.\nMy favorite JG story is the time I asked him if I could have a typewriter. He said there was a girl in the front office with a typewriter and she was called the receptionist. If I had any typing that needed done, I should give it to the receptionist. Right then I knew he was setting me up for success.\nI learned quite a lot from JG. The three things that strike me as being most important are attention to detail matters, give your client what they need which is not necessarily what they ask for, and make your message appropriate for your audience.\nJG was pretty hard on me at times, but I always knew he was trying to teach me and trying to make me better. I had a basketball coach in 9th grade who was harder on me than on any other girl on the JV team. I couldn't understand why and got so discouraged that I quit the team. Only then did I find out that she was so hard on me because she saw potential and thought that pushing me would help me get good enough to move up to the varsity team. Had I not had that experience, I don't think I could have appreciated what JG did for me. I'm glad that I had the opportunity to thank him for it.\nSpooky Video Just in Time for Halloween\nHere is a very spooky video I found on YouTube today.\nThe back story: A production crew was filming this car commercial and when they looked at an edited cut, they saw something VERY strange.\nToward the end of the video, after the first corner, the car drives behind a group of large trees and is out of view for a second or two, but when it emerges from the trees, the film's editor saw a small white misty-like human shape following the car.\nThe video was shown to experts in the paranormal, and they concluded that it was indeed a ghost. I've watched this video tons of times, and I can see the ghost.\nIf you look very close, you can see it too. I had to get very close to my computer screen to see it though, so look carefully.\nI drove to Dubuque, Iowa Thursday evening for a Friday morning client meeting.\nWe had lunch at a new restaurant that has opened in the former Dubuque Star Brewery, on the bank of the Mississippi river.\nThe city seems to be investing heavily in renovations and enhancements in the riverfront and downtown areas, giving the area a younger and more exciting atmosphere.\nBehind the brewery I noticed a building that appeared to be a stand-alone square smoke stack. After asking why there was a smoke stack without an attached building, I learned that it was a shot tower.\nDubuque Shot Tower History and photo courtesy of Wikipedia: The tower was built in 1856 to provide lead shot for the military. The concept of a shot tower solved the problem of how to produce many cheap, nearly perfect lead spheres of the right size to fit in a musket. To make lead shot, molten lead was poured into the top of the tower, where it passed through a grate. The droplets that fell from the grate were of relatively uniform size, and the fall provided enough time for the liquid-metal droplet to form into a sphere before landing in the water below. The water cooled the lead to its solid state, retaining the spherical shape.\nHonoring Our Local Beverage Delivery Drivers\nI'm guessing most people never stop to wonder how the beverage they're enjoying at their neighborhood pub made the journey from the brewery to their table.... let alone show appreciation to the hard-working delivery drivers that make it all possible.\nBefore today I was part of that clueless majority. Today we were invited to the Michiana Area Tavern Owners Association driver appreciation party and fund raiser.\nSomehow, between all of the appreciating and fund raising going on, Bruce and buddy Andy were able to memorize the preamble to the constitution of the American Legion.\nHalloween Comes to Elkhart County\nWe stopped by to visit former neighbors Paul and Judy today. They had been to the Halloween store and picked up a variety of outside decorations.\nHard to believe Halloween is just a few weeks away -- today's temperature was about 85 degrees.\nGrandma couldn't join us for lunch last weekend -- she wasn't feeling very well. So, we asked her to think of a place she hasn't been to in a while, but would really like to go to this weekend.\nShe didn't come up with it, but we knew that she really likes Mandarin House so that's where we had lunch today.\nWe had a 12:30pm reservation and that's the exact time we arrived. Unfortunately, the restaurant staff forgot the basic rules of the reservation process:\n1) take reservation\n2) save a table\n3) seat people who made the reservation at the saved table\nSo, we had to wait about 15 minutes until a table opened up. Bruce played the \"bitch and win\" game and was awarded a free carafe of sake.\nTraffic leaving Chicago Friday afternoon was really heavy. It took us about an hour to get from Lincoln Park to Grant Park.\nAs we came around the bend near Navy Pier, I noticed this guy off the side of the road counting cars. What an overwhelming task that must be.\nBowling in Chicago\nOur end-of-summer party at work was at the Seven Ten Lounge in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood.\nI bowled a 78 my first game, but after that warm up, bowled a 109 the second time around.\nLunch with the Ducks\nPinhook Park in South Bend is full of ducks.\nSome are a bit more curious than the others.\nI like to go there at lunchtime to watch the ducks. It's a great way to relax and re-energize for the afternoon.\nSpike The Wonder Dog Not Feeling Well\nSpike has been hanging out in his safe place, behind the sofa, under the desk. Still not feeling well.\nA couple of weeks ago, we started smelling urine in the house. We bought a black light to track down the source of the odor and soon discovered more than one location that Spike had confused with a fire hydrant.\nSuch un-Spike-like behavior led to a series of vet appointments and a diagnosis of a kidney infection, medicine and prescription dog food.\nNow Spike is used to eating Mighty Dog, which is a soft, dry food and about the only kind of dry food that he can eat, due to his bad teeth. So, as soon as we opened the first can of Science Diet K/D, he was all over it. Really smelly, moist and apparently delicious.\nThen, Saturday morning he didn't want to get out of bed. I encouraged him to join me outside and he moved very slowly and when we came back in, he went immediately to his safe place under the desk. He laid around whimpering most of the morning while we tried to figure out what was wrong with him. Moving slow, stomach as hard as a rock, warm nose, panting. Many different Google searches lead us to believe he had a severe stomach problem -- maybe even bloat. OMG... was this our fault by letting him gorge on the juicy and delicious K/D food??? But a call to the Animal Emergency Clinic talked us back off of the ledge. Since he wasn't retching, it wasn't bloat.\nThroughout the weekend, he had no interest in food, but we made sure that he drank plenty of water and we kept walking him around outside until he did his business. We wanted to make sure whatever was going on inside him wouldn't come exploding out inside the house.\nSince Spike couldn't make it up the steps in his feeble condition, I slept downstairs so I would be sure to hear him when he started crying during the night. It was so sad and I felt so helpless.\nMonday we got him back to the vet and I was sure the vet was going to tell us there was nothing he could do to help Spike. But, the prognosis, although serious and sad, was not at all what we expected. Spike hurt his back. We knew he had arthritis in his back and he's been on pain pills in the past when he sprained it. But, since he hadn't been eating and his stomach seemed to be distended, it never occurred to us that he was having back pain.\nThe x-ray showed that two sets of two of his vertebrae have fused and two others were distressed. The vet was quick to give Spike a shot of pain medication and another shot of muscle relaxant. He said that, with time and rest, the inflammation that is causing the pain will subside. And, he sent us home with pain and anti-inflammatory meds and advised us against encouraging exercise.\nThe really good news in all of this is that we didn't reach the $500 vet bill threshold which, in the past, has been the bill that came with the news that there was nothing more that could be done to help our beloved pets (Tyler and LBK). Our total with Spike was just under $450.",

        "raw_content": "We have worked through a 1945 appeals court reasoning about the University of Wisconsin\u2019s president\u2019s refusal to allow the licensing of an invention beneficial to public health for use in food products that might compete with State of Wisconsin dairy products. The court found that the opportunity to bolster the state\u2019s dairy industry and make money for the university is outweighed by the public interest in having broad access to the invention.\nThe court finds the patents are invalid\u2013and these are the anchor patents with which WARF was started\u2013but along the way constructs an argument that the University of Wisconsin\u2019s president has acted against the public interest by refusing to direct WARF to license the inventions for use in all food. Dairy industry profits\u2013even to the extent that these profits provide a benefit to dairy owners and dairy workers\u2013don\u2019t outweigh the public interest in having access to inventions that treat or prevent disease. That is, the benefit of the invention takes precedence over a benefit of exploiting a monopoly on the invention that excludes public access.\nNow consider the situation we have with Bayh-Dole. Public university administrators insist that they must own inventions made by personnel at their institutions. When a university takes ownership of an invention made in a project receiving federal support, the invention becomes a \u201csubject\u201d invention and Bayh-Dole preempts any requirements of ownership that may otherwise be made by any other law (but for Stevenson-Wydler and any later law that recites Bayh-Dole). Bayh-Dole substitutes instead its own public covenant that constrains the patent property rights for owners of subject inventions. It\u2019s just that nearly all of this public covenant is wrapped up in a standard patent rights clause\u2013a part of a federal contract\u2013and delegated to the federal agency that provided the research funding to waive, enforce, ignore, or otherwise not act upon.\nBut the federal enforcement of the standard patent rights clause is not the only basis for enforcing Bayh-Dole\u2013there\u2019s also Bayh-Dole\u2019s statement of policy at 35 USC 200, and that statement does more than just recite the Congressional intent for Bayh-Dole\u2013it also provides the statutory policy that constrains patent property rights. Bayh-Dole is after all part of federal patent law, and 35 USC 200 states the scope of patent property rights for inventions made in projects receiving federal support, regardless of who might own the patent rights, regardless of whether an invention becomes a subject invention or is owned by the federal government. That portion of the law is not delegated to federal agencies for enforcement, or even to the Department of Commerce\u2013that\u2019s for the Attorney General.\nThere\u2019s more. Federal patent law is not the only law applicable to the actions of university presidents in the deployment of inventions. Universities are also subject to their charters, the declarations by which they obtain non-profit standing, and in the case of public universities, laws pertaining to the proper conduct of instruments of state government. There\u2019s no law that provides that when a university president has control of a patent, the university may do anything it wants, just as any private owner of a patent might do. The outer constraint is not antitrust law. The outer constraint is the law of public interest.\nIn this, the monopoly meme has no life. \u201cThe state must deny something inventive to the public generally so that the state may have the incentive to profit from it as a commercial product.\u201d Fails. \u201cThe state must deny something inventive to those ready to use it because otherwise that use would compete with our profit incentive.\u201d Fails. \u201cThe state must deny something inventive on general principles because the cost to develop a commercial product is always much greater than the cost of the research in which any invention is made.\u201d Fails. Not true. But also a fallacy regardless of how it is smithed\u2013replace \u201calways\u201d with \u201coften\u201d or \u201csometimes\u201d and it\u2019s still a fallacy. There\u2019s no necessity of monopoly created by comparing the relative costs of inventing and those of commercial product development. That\u2019s simply not relevant. Compare: \u201cWe will deny you access to a life-saving treatment because it is colder in winter than in summer.\u201d\nI\u2019ve used an example that ought to raise your interest. Ah! The monopoly meme responds: but if you release that invention to all, then no one will use it or develop it and you will have in effect denied access to that life-saving treatment. That\u2019s the monopoly meme\u2019s basic claim\u2013the only way that the public will have any benefit from a life-saving treatment is that there\u2019s a full-blown monopoly on the practice of that treatment and all activity toward using the treatment is excluded in favor of a single effort to create a commercial product version of the treatment. Fails. Fails historical evidence. Fails logic. Fails what we know about how medical treatments may be used, disseminated, and developed. The only thing we might accept is that some medical treatments, when made the subject of monopoly patent claims, still do become, in some limited version, widely available medical treatments. But for each patent claiming a few hundred to thousands of variants, only a tiny fraction of the claimed \u201ctechnology\u201d is ever developed or used. The patent monopoly forbids such development or use for two decades, and by then the patent owner has added more patents, extending the monopoly franchise.\nThere are other factors at play, as well, to preserve a monopoly. Federal regulation. Competitive practices. Trade secrets. The monopoly meme is useful in justifying the creation of monopoly franchises, but has nothing to say about all the other ways that the public might benefit from access to a full account of and freedom to use any given invention. Thus, the claim that only by a patent monopoly that prevents public access will the public ever benefit is simply wrong. It\u2019s wrong in the general case, and its wrong in the case of medicinal chemistry. It\u2019s a clever cognitive illusion: because sometimes a product does come from a patent monopoly does not mean that the patent monopoly is the only, the best, the first way in which any other invention may come to be useful. And that\u2019s all the more the case when a university has insisted that it is the proper owner of an invention. All the more so when the invention has been made in a project receiving federal support or university support.\nA university does not get to shed its public mission merely because it comes to own an invention. \u201cWe would never shoot anyone\u2013that\u2019s our formal policy\u2013unless, of course, we obtain a loaded gun, and then we can and will shoot everyone we can, our formal policy be damned!\u201d \u201cThe true purpose of a loaded gun is to shoot, and any limitation on our shooting will chill our incentive to use the loaded gun as it was originally intended to be used!\u201d That sort of claptrap. In practice, university administrators are more subtle\u2013but just because they bury the claim that patent policy preempts copyright policy, preempts policy on academic freedom, preempts policies on not competing with the private sector, preempts policies on institutional conflict of interest (such as having an ownership interest in a company receiving an exclusive license).\nIt\u2019s just that a university\u2019s patent policy cannot preempt the university\u2019s charter or laws attending on the public purpose of the university, especially of a public university operating as an instrument of the state. That\u2019s what the Vitamin Technologists case comes down to.\nThe presidents of the University of Wisconsin over the course of two decades refused to permit the use radiation to produce vitamin D in margarine, and thus denied access to the benefits of the invention to a broad segment of the public\u2013especially egregious in a time of war rationing. That refusal may be entirely within the rights of a patent owner in the abstract, shorn of any other obligations. But the presidents of public universities are not such abstract owners of patents:\nall three judges now conclude the refusal unwarranted and against the public interest\nWhatever an abstract patent owner might do has nothing to do with it. We do not reason from the genus to the individual but must consider the obligations incumbent upon the individual. Even if the monopoly meme were true for the individual inventor or the corporate owner of a patent, it is not true when a public university becomes the owner of a patent. Claims about the patent system\u2019s \u201coriginal intent\u201d simply don\u2019t matter. The issue is the obligation of a public official now in control of the right to exclude the public from practicing a claimed invention\u2013practicing any part of what might be hundreds or thousands of variations and functional equivalents. In Vitamin Technologists, WARF\u2019s refusal to license\u2013the president of the University of Wisconsin\u2019s refusal to license\u2013so that an invention could be used broadly by the public runs \u201cagainst the public interest.\u201d Perhaps if there were a personal liability for such practices, university presidents would take their responsibilities seriously and not just repeat the monopoly meme as if it were the only bead on their intangible asset rosary.\nA few universities have made substantial money by exclusively licensing patents to the pharmaceutical industry. In those transactions, university administrators\u2013and by extension, university presidents\u2013have attempted to circumvent Bayh-Dole by refusing to comply with its requirements\u2013especially they have not made clear to their exclusive licensees that an exclusive license to make, use, and sell in fact conveys ownership of the subject invention and that the exclusive licensee must now comply with the nonprofit patent rights clause, including dedicating all income earned with respect to the subject invention to the specified public purposes. See 35 USC 202(c)(7)(A) and (C). University administrators also ignore Bayh-Dole\u2019s policy, which requires the patent system to be used to promote utilization of inventions arising in federally supported research or development\u2013not commercial development, but utilization; and which also requires the patent system be used to promote free competition and enterprise. This policy cannot be complied with by assigning inventions as if patents on them may, in the abstract, be used to suppress all use or to suppress free competition.\nUnder Bayh-Dole, nonprofits must dedicate all income with respect to any subject invention, less certain limited expenses, to public purposes\u2013and so must anyone to which a nonprofit assigns ownership of any subject invention. The only way a licensee escapes this public use of income is not to hold exclusive rights. Thus, while Bayh-Dole does not require nonprofit non-exclusive licensing it does require any company taking an exclusive license that conveys ownership to use any income for the specified public purposes. For commercial development, Bayh-Dole then all but requires presidents of universities to license non-exclusively, refusing no one.\nThe lesson of Vitamin Technologists, however, drives further into heart of the monopoly meme. Quite apart from all the fussiness of Bayh-Dole and the rest of federal patent law, university presidents have obligations to the public for whatever assets their universities control. Nothing in federal patent law, Bayh-Dole included, releases university presidents to play the patent troll or to refuse to license inventions to the public\u2013not even because they recite some bugaboo thing they have heard that someone insists is true in the abstract case. University presidents still have an obligation to the public\u2013even more so in the case of presidents of public universities.\nIf we follow the historical logic, it runs like this.\nThe federal government has a legitimate interest in opening new frontiers, including those of science. This research is distinct from research that is purpose-driven, even if that research also may discover frontier scientific knowledge.\nUniversities provide a venue for faculty to pursue their scientific interests without the constraints of corporate or government requirements, and therefore are a proper venue for federal support by means of grants.\nUniversities do not constrain the ownership of inventions made by faculty generally, and when the full cost of the research is provided by the federal government, will have no claim on inventions made with federal grant support.\nBecause faculty publish and generally do not claim patents (and some leading universities ban patents in the area of medicine), and when they claim patents they have historically licensed those patents to all for their beneficial use, there\u2019s no real difference between faculty-owned inventions and government-owned inventions, so long as the federal government gets a royalty-free license, along with most everyone else.\nIf a university believes that it could provide non-exclusive licenses to promote public use of any given invention better than might the federal government, it can make a case for doing so, and if that case is a persuasive one, there\u2019s nothing to prevent the federal government to allow the university to step in and serve the public as would the government, but with more dedicated efforts and greater efficiency.\nThat\u2019s the logic that got things started. But the pharmaceutical industry, beginning in the 1950s, insisted on patent monopolies. That led to the Harbridge House report, which supported the Kennedy patent policy but pointed out the conflict between the Public Health Service insisting on non-exclusive public access and the pharmaceutical industry boycotting PHS supported inventions. That is, the pharmaceutical industry refused to develop even life-saving inventions for which there was no monopoly to exploit to extract maximum profits.\nRather than telling the pharmaceutical industry to piss off, the NIH and university patent brokers took a different approach\u2013appeasement\u2013and created the revived Institutional Patent Agreement program. The IPA program gave the appearance of providing for universities to get involved when they could be certified to do as good or better job at non-exclusive licensing than the NIH, but in reality authorized the universities to grant exclusive licenses, and without saying so expressly, these licenses were intended for pharma. The historical evidence from practice backs this intention up\u2013almost all the licenses done by universities under the IPA program were biomedical, and almost all of those were exclusive.\nThe IPA program did not require universities to take ownership of any invention made in an NIH contract unless the university (i.e., the president of the university) decided to apply for a patent. Even then, the IPA program did not require exclusive licensing. Indeed, the IPA makes a big show of expecting non-exclusive licensing, and permitting exclusive licensing only when non-exclusive licensing efforts have been exhausted. In practice, however, no one bothered with non-exclusive licensing efforts. You know, the monopoly meme and the pharma boycott and all. And even then, the IPA not withstanding, nothing stripped university presidents from their public obligations. It simply does not matter that companies may make money from excluding all others. It simply does not matter that patent brokers cannot license to pharma unless the license conveys all substantial rights in a given invention, as if the invention had been made by the pharma company, but for a tiny royalty to be shared by the inventors, the university, and the brokers. Given that the brokers and the universities worked it out to keep most of this tiny royalty for themselves and pass on only a tiny bit of a tiny bit to the inventors, it\u2019s easy to see how the scheme was attractive to brokers and administrators alike.\nThere\u2019s a nonprofit out there, Canned Water 4 Kids. It sells canned water. \u201cDrinking Water\u2013with a purpose.\u201d On the can we read \u201c95% of all money collected from the sale of this water helps fund & deliver clean drinking water programs to those in need worldwide.\u201d Sounds wonderful. It\u2019s just that the published statements of account for the nonprofit show that while the nonprofit took in about $480,000 in 2017, only about $35,000 has gone to two charities (preventing AIDS, supporting international adoptions)\u2013neither, on the face of it, having to do with \u201cclean drinking water programs.\u201d As a nonprofit, the enterprise labels cans of water and companies make money, the nonprofit (sometimes, apparently) makes money, and even a couple of charities get tiny grants. But the published premise of the nonprofit\u2013whatever were the intentions at some point\u2013simply doesn\u2019t operate, other than as a sales pitch.\nThis is, in effect, the method of university control of patents on inventions made in publicly-directed research. There\u2019s a wonderful-sounding premise. In practice, everyone makes money\u2013patent attorneys, especially, university technology transfer officers, university administrators, inventors (rarely, because they only get paid when their inventions are profitable, while attorneys get paid regardless and administrators get paid whenever any one invention is profitable). It\u2019s just the public that gets screwed over in all the bustle. \u201cFor us to make this money, really any money at all, we have to deny the public access to all these inventions while we wait for a company to come forward which will only take a license.\u201d That\u2019s what the monopoly meme covers for.\nThis entry was posted in Bayh-Dole, Commons, History, Policy and tagged 35 USC 200, 35 USC 202, Bayh-Dole, Canned Water 4 Kids, IPA, monopoly meme, public interest.

Diabetic medicine, 18 (1). pp. 3-9. ISSN 0742-3071 http://researchonline.lshtm.ac.uk/id/eprint/16705\nAIMS: Published rates of deaths attributed to diabetes mellitus among those aged under 50 have risen substantially in several former Soviet republics since the late 1980s. The reasons for this increase, and the situation facing patients with diabetes in these countries are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to describe the circumstances leading up to the death of individuals dying under the age of 50 years with mention of diabetes on their death certificate. METHODS: Interviews with surviving relatives or neighbours, combining elements of verbal autopsy and confidential enquiry. For those who had lived in the city of Lviv a random sample was taken. For those in rural areas a purposive sample was used to ensure coverage of more and less remote areas. RESULTS: Key informants were identified and agreed to be interviewed for 64 individuals out of a possible 79 with insulin-treated diabetes identified from their death certificates. The main immediate causes of death were renal failure (69%), ischaemic heart disease (9%), ketoacidosis (6%) and hypoglycaemia (3%). Over a third of men, but no women, were reported to have been heavy drinkers. Informants described many difficulties in obtaining regular supplies of insulin and related supplies since 1990. Although insulin is officially available free of charge, most had retained supplies for use in an emergency. More than half had, at some time, purchased supplies. The large number of deaths from renal failure reflects the effective absence of renal replacement therapy for patients with diabetes. CONCLUSIONS: Individuals with diabetes in Ukraine face profound challenges involving access to necessary care. Their needs require significantly more attention from policy makers.\nmortality, Type 1 diabetes mellitus, Ukraine, Mortality, mellitus, alcohol, insulin",

Health research policy and systems, 13 (1). p. 70. ISSN 1478-4505 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1186/s12961-015-0059-y\nThe 'Sponsoring National Processes for Evidence-Informed Policy Making in the Health Sector of Developing Countries' program was launched by the Alliance for Health Policy and Systems Research, WHO, in July 2008. The program aimed to catalyse the use of evidence generated through health policy and systems research in policymaking processes through (1) promoting researchers and policy advocates to present their evidence in a manner that is easy for policymakers to understand and use, (2) creating mechanisms to spur the demand for and application of research evidence in policymaking, and (3) increased interaction between researchers, policy advocates, and policymakers. Grants ran for three years and five projects were supported in Argentina, Bangladesh, Cameroon, Nigeria and Zambia. This paper seeks to understand why projects in some settings were perceived by the key stakeholders involved to have made progress towards their goals, whereas others were perceived to have not done so well. Additionally, by comparing experiences across five countries, we seek to illustrate general learnings to inform future evidence-to-policy efforts in low- and middle-income countries. We adopted the theory of knowledge translation developed by Jacobson et al. (J Health Serv Res Policy 8(2):94-9, 2003) as a framing device to reflect on project experiences across the five cases. Using data from the projects' external evaluation reports, which included information from semi-structured interviews and quantitative evaluation surveys of those involved in projects, and supplemented by information from the projects' individual technical reports, we applied the theoretical framework with a partially grounded approach to analyse each of the cases and make comparisons. There was wide variation across projects in the type of activities carried out as well as their intensity. Based on our findings, we can conclude that projects perceived as having made progress towards their goals were characterized by the coming together of a number of domains identified by the theory. The domains of Jacobson's theoretical framework, initially developed for high-income settings, are of relevance to the low- and middle-income country context, but may need modification to be fully applicable to these settings. Specifically, the relative fragility of institutions and the concomitantly more significant role of individual leaders point to the need to look at leadership as an additional domain influencing the evidence-to-policy process.\nFilename: 12961_2015_Article_59.pdf",

        "raw_content": "School crossing patrol acclaimed for 42 years\u2019 service\n12.00 | 27 March 2015 | SCPs |\t1 comment\nHaving chalked up a remarkable 42 years\u2019 service, Sandy Flamson from Whitwick in Leicestershire has been named longest serving school crossing patrol (SCP) in the Road Safety GB East Midlands Region.\nSandy\u2019s dedicated service has been recognised in a competition run by the SCP uniform supplier Keltic Clothing which is designed to reward SCPs for their commitment.\nUnder the competition, the longest-serving SCP in each Road Safety GB region is receiving a bottle of champagne and long-service badge, and each member of the local team is treated to either a STOP cupcake or gingerbread patrol.\nSandy started as a patrol in January 1973 and has certainly seen some changes since then. The uniform and sign have changed to meet modern standards, and patrols can now stop traffic to cross any pedestrian, adult or child. In many ways, however, the role is the same today as it was 42 years ago.\nSandy said: \u201cI love my job because I\u2019m helping children to be safe and I feel like I\u2019m making a worthwhile contribution to the community.\n\u201cI enjoy being out in the fresh air, meeting new people and watching the children grow up. In some cases I\u2019m now crossing their children!\u201d\nLaura Mellett, account supervisor at Keltic Clothing, said: \u201cIt\u2019s such a fantastic achievement. We\u2019re happy to be involved and to see someone get recognised for making such a big contribution.\n\u201cWe hope that, in a small way, our competition is giving some well-deserved recognition to what we consider to be an integral part of road safety, as well as a great British heritage.\"\nWonderful words from Sandy. What a lovely lady.\nMark \u2013 Wiltshire",

        "raw_content": "Doggone Lucky\nNext Aritcle St. John\u2019s Receives Major Money for Maternity Ward\nJamaica Bay is a usual hotspot for fishing boats, the ferry and jet skis, but on Monday, July 30, something you don\u2019t normally see was spotted bobbing up and down along the boat wakes\u2014a dog. Luckily, due to the right people in the right place at the right time, this story has a happy ending.\nIt was a seemingly uneventful Monday at The Wharf, when suddenly something went awry. \u201cI was on the phone with my wife in the back room when I saw Sheila Mac and another girl run to the end of the dock. I told my wife, something is wrong,\u201d Bob Leckie, owner of The Wharf recalled. \u201cI get down there and say, \u2018what\u2019s the matter?\u2019 They said, \u2018It\u2019s a dog!\u2019 and they pointed toward the water at this little dog being swept away by the current.\u201d\nLuckily for the dog, two angels aboard a Karen Ann charter boat were nearby. Leckie and the ladies on the dock quickly got the attention of Captain Vinnie Calabro, of Howard Beach, and Tony Ambroseccio, of Belle Harbor, as they were enjoying their day out on the water.\n\u201cWe didn\u2019t have a charter that morning, so Tony and I were just out fishing and we pass by The Wharf and see a couple of people excited on the dock,\u201d Calabro said. \u201cThey said, \u2018there\u2019s a dog that fell in the water, he\u2019s drifting away!\u2019 We look up and see this little head bobbing in the water.\u201d Without hesitation, Calabro and Ambroseccio went after the animal. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t even think twice about saving it. You just do it,\u201d Calabro said.\nThey caught up to the dog in the water at around Beach 123rd. \u201cBy the time they rescued the dog, it had gone six blocks away with the current,\u201d Leckie said. \u201cWe lost sight of it a couple times.\u201d Luckily, the fishermen were able to spot it as they got closer. A wave of relief spread as onlookers watched the fishermen pull the dog out of the water, but the ordeal wasn\u2019t over yet.\n\u201cThe dog jumped right out of the boat. It was frightened and shaking,\u201d Leckie said. The fishermen once again retrieved the panicked animal and were eventually able to bring it to safety at The Wharf\u2019s dock. \u201cEverybody in the restaurant stood up and clapped when the fishermen got the dog back to the dock,\u201d Leckie said. \u201cThis was our little good deed for the day. It put a smile on everyone\u2019s face,\u201d Calabro said.\nFollowing reports of a dog running around Beach Channel Drive, and later spotted in the bay, a police officer had arrived at the bayside restaurant and was on the scene to comfort the distressed pooch. \u201cOfficer Wiley held the dog in his arms while he tried to calm it down and I got my finger on the collar. The dog had a tag and we were able to contact the owner,\u201d Leckie said.\nAfter spending a weekend away in Pennsylvania, Peggy Sacca and her husband, Peter had just pulled into their driveway on the beach block of Beach 118th, when they received a call they weren\u2019t expecting. \u201cWe get a call from our son, Petey and all he says to my husband is, \u2018Somebody called and said one of your dogs is in the bay.\u2019 We started freaking out,\u201d Sacca said. Sacca\u2019s husband ran into the house to see which of their three dogs was missing. It was Margarey, a tiny Shih Tzu that weighs just 12 pounds.\n\u201cAfter hearing she was in the bay, my husband grabs a towel from the laundry and we take the car over and park in Duane Reade and run over to The Wharf like crazy people. We didn\u2019t know if she was dead or alive. We get to The Wharf and see a crowd of people and police on the dock and one of the cops is holding Margarey, wrapped up in a sweatshirt. She was in shock,\u201d Sacca said.\nHowever, the lucky dog\u2019s demeanor changed immediately after spotting her human. \u201cOnce she had it in her arms, the dog started licking her face and we knew she was the owner,\u201d Leckie said.\nHow did little Margarey pull off her great escape? Sacca\u2019s children had been dog-sitting for the weekend, but were at work on Monday morning when Margarey became antsy, wondering when mom and dad would return. \u201cOur neighbor told us that they heard her whining earlier in the day and I guess she decided to try to find us,\u201d Sacca said. \u201cWe had just recently installed a brand new fence around our yard, after finally replacing the one we lost after Hurricane Sandy. Apparently Margarey thinks she\u2019s a mouse with no bones because she got under an impossibly small section of the fence. The police told us that they got a report of a small dog running up and down the street. She managed to cross Rockaway Beach Boulevard, Newport and Beach Channel Drive. We were told that people were chasing her to try to catch her and she decided that she wasn\u2019t going to get caught,\u201d Sacca said. It is believed that the dog had jumped through an opening in the fence near Duane Reade or the 9/11 Tribute Park, which is how she wound up in Jamaica Bay. \u201cThis dog won\u2019t even go for a grooming. She\u2019s the hardest to manage when you give her a bath and here she is swimming in Jamaica bay,\u201d Sacca said.\nEveryone was grateful for a happy ending. \u201cThis could have gone wrong in so many ways. She was extremely lucky,\u201d Sacca said. \u201cI just want to thank God for every person that assisted. Thank you for not ignoring this little dog and knowing that this was a problem and acting on it. We\u2019d be lost without her.\u201d Sacca says they\u2019ve since blocked the opening in their fence and will keep a close eye on their dogs. \u201cWe\u2019re never going away without them again,\u201d she said.\n\u201cHad those fishermen not gotten the dog, she wouldn\u2019t have survived. It was really miraculous,\u201d Leckie said. \u201cGod was good to that dog that day,\u201d Calabro said.",

        "title": "Album Review: Kip Moore - Up All Night | RoughStock",
        "raw_content": "Album Review: Kip Moore - Up All Night\nPosted By Bobby Peacock on Friday April 20, 2012 at 11:04AM PST 2012-04-20 19:04:00\nKip Moore's breakthrough single \"Somethin' 'Bout A Truck\" recently crossed the Gold sales mark, the first new artist of 2012 to do so, and now he is releasing this debut for MCA Records. Read on to see what we have to say about \"Up All Night\" here!\nKip Moore is yet another artist who got his foot in the door by writing for someone else. Specifically, he penned \"All the Way\" and \"Let's Fight\" on Thompson Square's debut album before making his first appearance with \"Mary Was the Marrying Kind.\" Although this song fell short of the top 40 (and it doesn't appear on this album unless you buy the deluxe edition from iTunes), Kip and MCA Nashville quickly called a mulligan. And not unlike the aforementioned Thompson Square with \"Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not,\" Kip's second single (\"Somethin' 'bout a Truck\") has taken off.\n\"Drive Me Crazy,\" co-written by Kiefer Thompson, is a typical teenage romance story from the male perspective, standing out with vivid lyrics such as \"The moonlight was all around / Our breath, the only sound.\" When the daddy's job takes the girl away, Moore sounds like he's truly torn up over what he can no longer have. Later on, he covers the same territory with \"Crazy One More Time,\" which ends with him singing \"I guess I'll always have this longing in my heart\" over a driving groove after recalling one last make-out with a girl whom he'll never see again. Later on, you might find \"Where You Are Tonight,\" where he's wondering just that. Despite its weak chorus, this song is otherwise a solid, passionate look at missing someone.\nThat song and \"Beer Money\" were both co-written by Blair Daly and Troy Verges, both of whom turn in something other than crossover-friendly pop ballads for once. On \"Beer Money,\" Kip invites a girl who's feeling down to go off and drink those troubles away while he pays. The synthesized hand claps and snappy melody are set to interesting lyrics such as \"Hope we get lucky and stay out of jail\" and something I'm always a sucker for, a really long chorus \u00e1 la \"Somewhere with You.\" In a similar vein, the title track has Kip offering his sweetie (and her friends) the idea to \"take the only road straight out of town\" and stay up all night dancing and partying.\n\"Truck\" is parked in the third slot on this album. It has a very interesting structure \u2014 four verses all beginning an ending with \"Somethin' 'bout a _____\" followed by a chorus that puts them all together in rapid-fire fashion (\"Somethin' 'bout a truck in a field and a girl in a red sundress with an ice cold beer to her lips / Beggin' for another kiss\"). Clever, catchy and radio-friendly all at once, it has the obvious markings of a hit.\nAfter three up-tempos, \"Everything but You\" comes along to lead off the ballad-heavy midsection. \"I finally found the place / Where I can start to plant some roots,\" Kip sings, soon adding \"It's got everything but you.\" He then elaborates on what a great place it is with its taco stand that serves beer, pathway to the ocean, shining sun, an old man who makes good wine. I would be surprised if this isn't a future single.\n\"Truck\" co-writer Dan Couch contributes to three other tracks. \"Hey Pretty Girl\" is similarly tight in its structure, each line bookended by some phrase starting and ending with the title. Kip's voice pushes down to its lowest as he follows the obvious path from \"look my way\" to having a dance to taking her home to starting a family to death. After it is \"Reckless,\" which recalls a life story of being a rebellious teen, wanting to change his life but getting fired for various reasons such as smoking pot on the job. \"Maybe I'm way too much about havin' fun,\" he sings with an obvious smile on his face, making it clear that the song is tongue in cheek. The song then takes a more serious sound when he recalls getting a gig at a bar, being spotted by a record exec who wants to meddle with his image, then telling said exec to shove it. It's a surprising \"take that\" for a newcomer to make, but a credible one. Couch's fourth co-write is \"Fly Again,\" a midtempo about going off to forget about a lover while getting lost in smoke and drink. The melody is a bit monotonous, but elevated by Kip's voice.\n\"Faith When I Fall\" starts off with acoustic guitar before building to an electric guitar-and-drum loop arrangement. Pleading for strength, guidance and faith, he admits that he's been a stranger to God but still wants to change that. This kind of song has been done so many times before, but the grain in Kip's voice adds weight and credibility to his pleas.\nAlthough Kip Moore touches on so many country cornerstones \u2014 drinking, smoking, trucks, hot girls \u2014 he does so in a believable fashion. His voice has a balance of gruffness and tenderness that reminds me of David Lee Murphy, with whom he also shares a knack for solid melodies and detail. Lee Brice is also an obvious point of reference for his grit and lyrical skill. Moore has more of a rock edge to him, thanks in no small part to Brett James' muscular production. Instead of being compressed into a tinny, bombastic wall of sound \u00e1 la Frank Liddell, there is a definite variety in dynamics. The guitars ring out and crunch, the drums (or drum loops) and bass are clearly audible, and Kip is never overpowered by the instruments. Overall, Up All Night gets absolutely everything right, as a debut album should.\nTo Enter to win a copy of the album autographed by Kip, click the image below:\nTo buy the mp3 album or CD from amazon or iTunes click below:\nkip moore up all night\none to watch 2011\nkip moore up all night album review",

This buildup (plaque) then narrows the arteries, which often reduces or even blocks the flow of blood. P.A.D. is most commonly seen in the legs, but also can be present in the arteries that carry blood from your heart to your head, arms, kidneys, and stomach.\nPatients with P.A.D may benefit from having a surgical procedure in addition to medications and lifestyle changes. These procedures will not completely cure P.A.D., but they can improve the circulation of blood in diseased areas\nEndovascular Disease\nThoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a life-threatening endovascular condition caused by a bulge in the major artery from the heart.\nOur surgeons use the latest endovascular stent graft technology to perform a minimally invasive repair of TAAs.",

The Flames are 6-2-1 in their last nine games in Arizona.\nGLENDALE, Ariz. -- There wasn't much open ice for the Calgary Flames, not many shooting lanes, not much room to get the puck past an on-his-game goaltender.\nA team with multiple high-quality scorers hasn't experienced much of that recently while winning three of four and eight of 12, but the Flames did during a 2-0 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights and goaltender Marc Andre-Fleury on Friday night.\n\"These are the games you've got to get used to,\" Calgary defenseman Mark Giordano said. \"That's what the league's going to be about, especially as the year goes on. That's desperate (Vegas) team over there. They're battling to get in the race.\"\nThe Arizona Coyotes know all about that. Only a few weeks ago, they were the team that was beating opponents with speed and a defensive system that was creating plenty of offense with its ability to turn the puck over. They also were scoring more short-handed goals (10) than many teams were on the power play.\nBut the Coyotes have lost three in a row and eight of 10 after winning five straight, and they may be reaching the point that determines whether they'll trend upward or downward the rest of the season.\nJust as the Flames will be looking to get back on their recent hot streak, the Coyotes will be trying for a turnaround win when they close out a five-game homestand against he Flames on Sunday at Gila River Arena.\nThe Coyotes are 1-2-1 on the homestand so far, and they're not winning mostly because they're not scoring. They've generated two goals or fewer in six of their last seven games.\n\"As coaches, you've got to be careful when you're not scoring because you magnify everything,\" Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet said Saturday. \"You want to loosen guys up, but at the same time there's got to be urgency by some players. We don't have the type of team that can only have 13, 14 people going.\"\nAt about the same time the Flames weren't generating any offense a few hundred miles away in Las Vegas on Friday, the Coyotes never got much going during a 5-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche that represented one of their worst efforts of the season.\nJ.T. Compher, injured and out of the Colorado lineup for six weeks, returned to score twice short-handed on the same shift in the first period, and Mikko Rantanen scored moments later to finish a three-goal sequence in 2:11 that effectively ended it.\n\"I thought we were going good and then, all of a sudden, the rails came off,\" Tocchet said. \"That's what we can't do, duplicate mistakes. That's kind of the microcosm of the team right now.\"\nThe Coyotes are aware that the Flames can turn on the offense in a hurry, too, as Calgary averages 3.26 goals per game to Arizona's 2.43. Flames left winger Matthew Tkachuk has five goals in five games and center Sean Monahan has three goals in four games.\n\"They've got some high-skill guys, they play an offensive game and we're aware of that,\" Arizona defenseman Alex Goligoski said. \"For us, it's getting back to our game and being real stingy defensively and getting to their net and throwing a ton of pucks at them.\"\nIt would help if forward Clayton Keller would rev up his game. After scoring five goals in five games, Keller doesn't have a goal in 11 games, or since Oct. 27.\nSimilarly, Calgary right winger James Neal doesn't have a goal in nine games, but coach Bill Peters likes that Neal took seven shots -- four of which were blocked -- against Vegas.\nArizona goaltender Antti Raanta returned from an eight-game layoff with a lower-body injury to start Friday and allow all five Colorado goals, and he'll be back in net Sunday, according to Tocchet.\nFormer Coyotes goalie Mike Smith held down the starter's net during the Flames' practice on Saturday, but starter David Rittich is 8-2 with a 2.04 goals-against average and, until Friday, hadn't lost since Oct. 23. Peters declined Saturday to name a starter.",

        "raw_content": "IS supporters are turning away from Twitter. shutterstock.com\nFrom the Archive is a blog series which republishes some older pieces of work from key IMSISS staff to showcase the interesting and thought provoking work that they do. In this article from 2017 Professor Maura Conway from DCU and co-author Suraj Lakhani look at the crackdown on ISIS Social Media.\nThis article was first published on the 21st August 2017 by The Conversation. Please visit: https://theconversation.com/islamic-states-twitter-network-is-decimated-but-other-extremists-face-much-less-disruption-82657 for the original article.\nBy Suraj Lakhani, (University of Sussex) and Maura Conway, (Dublin City University)\nAlongside the fierce battles that have been raging of late in key strongholds of so-called Islamic State (IS) in Syria and Iraq, intense battles against Islamist extremism have also been taking place online, particularly on social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.\nIn our recent research we looked more closely at the fight against IS on Twitter. While we found the majority of IS accounts were being quickly suspended, accounts linked to other extremist groups were not.\nThe use of social media by a diversity of violent extremists and terrorists and their supporters has been a matter of concern for law enforcement and politicians for some time. In the aftermath of the London Bridge attack in June 2017, the British prime minister, Theresa May, reiterated her warning to online companies, including Twitter and Facebook, to eradicate extremist \u201csafe spaces\u201d.\nAs one of IS\u2019s preferred social media spaces, Twitter has been subject to particular scrutiny. The company maintains that its strategies for disrupting pro-IS content and accounts have become more effective in recent years. From mid-2015 through to January 2016, Twitter claimed to have suspended in the region of 15,000 to 18,000 IS-supportive accounts per month. This disruption activity ramped up considerably from mid-February to mid-July 2016, according to Twitter, increasing to an average of 40,000 pro-IS account suspensions per month.\nDisrupting Daesh\nIn our research, undertaken in February to April 2017, we sought to determine how effective Twitter\u2019s disruption strategies actually are. Disruption refers here to the take down of content and the suspension of accounts.\nOur dataset consisted of 722 pro-IS accounts. Some were identified based on their avatar or carousel image containing explicitly pro-IS imagery or text. Other accounts were included if they had at least one recent tweet (not just a reweet) by the user containing explicitly pro-IS content, such as referring to IS as Dawlah, meaning state, or their fighters as \u201clions\u201d. The same parameters were used to categorise non-IS jihadist accounts. We excluded so-called \u201cthrowaway\u201d accounts that had no followers.\nOur software system continuously monitored the pro-IS accounts in our dataset to ascertain if and when they were suspended. In total, 455, or 63%, of the pro-IS accounts in our dataset were suspended in just three months. However, an unknown number of accounts were disrupted with such speed and intensity that we were not able to include them in our dataset. Given this and other considerations, we estimate that the total loss of IS-supportive accounts over the period was probably greater than 90%.\nThese results are in stark contrast to the findings of seminal research undertaken by JM Berger and Jonathan Morgan on IS supporter accounts in 2014. In their analysis of 20,000 such accounts between September 2014 and January 2015, they observed suspension of just 678 accounts, which accounted for a total loss of just 3.4%.\nBlocking some accounts faster than others. clasesdeperiodismo/flickr, CC BY-SA\nDifferential disruption\nBut while it appears that Twitter is now severely disrupting pro-IS accounts on its platform, our research found that other jihadists were not subject to the same levels of take down.\nFor comparison, we entered a sample of 451 other jihadist accounts into our database, including those supportive of extremist groups Hay\u2019at Tahrir al-Sham, Ahrar al-Sham, the Taliban, and al-Shabaab. Of these, 163 were eventually suspended. But while more than 30% of pro-IS accounts were suspended within two days of their creation, less than 1% of other jihadist accounts met the same fate.\nTheir longer life meant that non-IS jihadist Twitter accounts had the opportunity to send six times as many tweets, follow or \u201cfriend\u201d four times as many accounts and, critically, gain 13 times as many followers as pro-IS accounts.\nWe believe that our pro-IS Twitter account dataset is as close as possible \u2013 taking into account some caveats detailed in our report \u2013 to a full dataset of explicitly IS-supportive accounts with at least one follower for the period studied. The dataset of other jihadist accounts, on the other hand, no way reflects the true number of these accounts on Twitter.\nWider considerations\nOur research shows that Twitter is no longer a conducive space for IS supporters. Twitter\u2019s aggressive pro-IS account take-down activity means that the once vibrant and extensive IS Twitter network is now almost non-existent.\nThe almost exclusive focus on IS\u2019s Twitter activity by researchers and others means that the online activity, including the Twitter activity of non-IS jihadis, the extreme right, and others, has largely gone under the radar. Professionals working in this area such as content moderators, law enforcement officers and researchers need to pay more careful attention to this activity going forward. This should include a focus on the diversity of other platforms besides Twitter being used by the whole range of other violent extremists and terrorists.\nThe migration of the pro-IS social media community from Twitter to the messaging service Telegram particularly bears watching. Telegram currently has a lower profile than Twitter with a smaller user base and higher barriers to entry, with users required to provide a mobile phone number to create an account. While this means that fewer people are being exposed to IS\u2019s online content via Telegram, and are thereby in a position to be radicalised by it, it may mean that Telegram\u2019s pro-IS community is more committed and therefore poses a greater security risk than its Twitter variant.\nSuraj Lakhani, Lecturer in Criminology & Sociology, University of Sussex and Maura Conway, Professor of International Security, Dublin City University",

        "title": "Inability of Senior Citizens to Detect Sarcasm, Lies May Be Early Sign of Dementia",
        "raw_content": "Inability of Senior Citizens to Detect Sarcasm, Lies May Be Early Sign of Dementia\n\u2018These patients cannot detect lies\u2019 \u2013 \u2018This fact can help them be diagnosed earlier\u2019\nApril 15, 2011 \u2013 While millions of dollars are being spent on scientific research to find an early detection system for Alzheimer\u2019s disease and other dementias, scientists at the University of California, San Francisco think they have found a simple method. They say senior citizens unable to detect sarcasm and lies are likely victims of dementia.\nBy asking a group of older adults to analyze videos of other people conversing - some talking truthfully, some insincerely - a group of scientists at the University of California, San Francisco has determined which areas of the brain govern a person's ability to detect sarcasm and lies.\nSome of the adults in the group were healthy, but many of the test subjects had neurodegenerative diseases that cause certain parts of the brain to deteriorate. The UCSF team mapped their brains using magnetic resonance imaging, MRI, which showed associations between the deteriorations of particular parts of the brain and the inability to detect insincere speech.\nNormal Senior Citizens with Amyloid Plaques Show Changes Associated with Alzheimer\u2019s\nDiscovery may open door for therapies to prevent developing Alzheimer \u2019s disease\nAlcohol Consumption by Elderly Reduces Risk of Dementia, Alzheimer\u2019s\nMost studies of senior citizens in last 31 years show association between moderate alcohol consumption and better cognitive function and reduced risk of dementia\nAn Alzheimer\u2019s Vaccine Plus Stroke Prevention in a Nasal Spray?\nTel Aviv University researchers develop a vaccine they think will stave off stroke as well Alzheimer\u2019s\n\"These patients cannot detect lies,\" said UCSF neuropsychologist Katherine Rankin, PhD, a member of the UCSF Memory and Aging Center and the senior author of the study. \"This fact can help them be diagnosed earlier.\"\nThe finding was presented Thursday, April 14, 2011, at the 63rd Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Neurology in Hawaii, by Rankin and her postdoctoral fellow Tal Shany-Ur, PhD. The title of their presentation was, \"Divergent Neuroanatomic Correlates of Sarcasm and Lie Comprehension in Neurodegenerative Disease.\"\nIn a presentation today at the 63rd Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Neurology in Hawaii, Rankin and her postdoctoral fellow Tal Shany-Ur, PhD, will show the data, which suggests that it may be possible to spot people with particular neurodegenerative diseases early just by looking for the telltale sign of their inability to detect lies.\n\u201cWe have to find these people early,\u201d said Rankin. In general scientists believe that catching people early in the disease will provide the best opportunity for intervention when drugs become available.\nThe study is part of a larger body of work at UCSF\u2019s Memory and Aging Center examining emotion and social behavior in neurodegenerative diseases as tools for better predicting, preventing, and diagnosing these conditions.\nDementia and Disbelief\nThe ability to detect lies resides in the brain's frontal lobe. In diseases like frontotemporal dementia, this is one of the areas that progressively degenerates because of the accumulation of damaged proteins known as tau and the death of neurons in those areas.\nBecause the frontal lobes play a significant role in complex, higher-order human behaviors, losing the ability to detect lies is only one of several ways the disease may manifest. The first signs of the disease may be any number of severe behavioral changes. People sometimes behave in socially inappropriate ways or undergoing fundamental shifts in outlook -- switching political affiliations or changing religions, for instance.\nIronically, these signs are often missed because they are misattributed to depression or an extreme form of midlife crisis.\nHoping to increase the tools available for doctors and caregivers to recognize the early signs of the disease, the UCSF team focused on the fact that people with frontotemporal dementia often lose the ability to detect sarcasm and lies. Doctors have observed evidence of this fact for years because people suffering from the disease sometimes lose significant amounts of money to online scams and telemarketers because of their blind trust.\nPeople who age normally without suffering neurodegeneration, on the other hand, generally do not suffer a significant decline in their ability to understand sarcasm and deception.\nBut the question was how solid this association is. Would the inability to detect sarcasm and lies actually match the brain regions hit early in these diseases?\nAssess, Lies, and Videotape\nIn order to answer this question, the UCSF team worked with 175 people, more than half of whom had some form of neurodegeneration. They showed them videos of two people talking, one of whom would occasionally tell lies or use sarcasm -- a fact that was apparent in the videos from verbal and non-verbal cues. Then the test subjects were asked yes/no questions about videos.\nHealthy older subjects in the study could easily distinguish sincere from insincere speech. However, the subjects who had frontotemporal dementia were less able to discern among lies, sarcasm, and fact. Patients with other forms of dementia, such as Alzheimer\u2019s disease, did better.\nTo associate the detection inability with neurodegeneration, the UCSF team used MRI to make extremely accurate maps of the brains of the subjects in the study. This allowed them to measure the volumes of different regions of the brain showing that the sizes of those regions correlated with the inability to detect sarcasm or lying.\nAccording to Rankin, the work should help raise awareness of the fact that this extreme form of gullibility can actually be a warning sign of dementia -- something that could help more patients be correctly diagnosed and receive treatment earlier in the long run.\n\"If somebody has strange behavior and they stop understanding things like sarcasm and lies, they should see a specialist who can make sure this is not the start of one of these diseases,\" said Rankin.\nThe presentation, \"Divergent Neuroanatomic Correlates of Sarcasm and Lie Comprehension in Neurodegenerative Disease\" by Tal Shany-Ur, Pardis Poorzand, Scott Grossman, Stephen M. Wilson, Bruce L. Miller, Katherine P. Rankin is at 10:30 a.m. Pacific time on Thursday, April 14, 2011.\nOther co-authors of the study arePardis Poorzand and Scott Grossman and Stephen M. Wilson and Bruce L. Miller, of the UCSF Memory and Aging Center.\nUCSF says it is a leading university dedicated to promoting health worldwide through advanced biomedical research, graduate-level education in the life sciences and health professions, and excellence in patient care.",

        "raw_content": "Very few people do not try to lose weight at some point in their lives. For the rest of the human population, it can seem to be a necessary, and yet rather difficult challenge to take on at any point in time. If you are equipped with solid tips, you have better chances at succeeding.\nA good way to lose weight is to get rid of all the junk food in your house. We tend to eat junk food if it's around and if it's not there, we're less likely to eat it. Get rid of the junk food to make room for healthy food.\nA great way to help you lose weight is to change the way you think about yourself. If you're overweight, you might think negatively about yourself, and that can sabotage any efforts that you make when trying to lose weight. Thinking positively about yourself is key in changing your lifestyle.\nA really useful tip to help you lose weight is to eat before going to the movie theater or to bring a healthy snack with you. Movie theaters are notorious for their unhealthy popcorn and all the candy that's readily available. By bringing your own snack, you won't give in to temptation.\nHaving a workout partner can help remaining committed on your weight-loss plan easier. There's nothing like exercising with someone who understands what you're going through to keep you motivated and accountable. You will gain the extra support and confidence you need to get through any rough times if you have a buddy to lean on!\nOne way you can control what you eat is to take control of your environment. Make sure there is minimal contact http://teapreciomucho.com/?create-multiple-buyers-for-your-online-supplements-with-these-tips-content-author-Don-Buckingham.html with food at home, work, and in the car. The more you are around food, the more likely you are to eat something or possibly over eat.\nA great diet plan to choose if you want to shed pounds over time is the Mediterranean diet. This diet focuses on adding good fats, vegetables, fruits and proteins into your diet. The correct diet plan is essential in adding healthy foods to your day and maintaining the proper discipline.\nIncorporate healthy foods into your diet to lose weight effectively. If you're eating nothing but low-calorie foods, you may not be getting enough nutrients. While you may lose some weight, you are actually not creating a healthy body.\nLosing weight occasionally requires minor detective skills. Pay close attention to the nutritional value and ingredients in foods and beverages, even if you think you have a good idea of what you'll find. As much as possible, avoid consuming anything that contains trans-fats or corn syrup, which induces the body to store more calories as fat and has been linked to problems with the liver, heart, and stomach.\nAdding a significant amount of https://livewell.jillianmichaels.com/benefits-taking-collagen-supplements-5076.html fiber to your diet can have positive effects in the success of your weight loss program. In addition to preventing painful constipation, it also improves the body's ability to balance itself through regular bowel movements. Over time, this will have a favorable effect on your overall metabolic function, which leads to weight loss.\nOne of the biggest mistakes you can make when you start a weight loss program is to view exercise and fitness as punishment for eating poorly. Instead, view your trip to the gym as a positive thing - a valuable resource that is available for you to use as you pursue your goals. You are not just losing weight; you are getting stronger and better toned muscles. Exercise is also strengthening your heart.\nIt is a good idea to make weight loss goals that are easily attainable. This makes you more motivated when you reach those goals and will prompt you to stick with the program with the hopes of losing more weight. You can even buy yourself some sort of treat as a reward for reaching your goal.\nChromium is a fantastic supplement that you can choose if you often get cravings during the course of the day and night. Take one caplet of chromium or purchase foods that are rich in chromium if you want to have a mental edge over your cravings as the day wears on.\nAlthough losing weight may seem like an impossible task, it doesn't have to be that way. Try to take all of your measurements so that you can chart your progress later down the road.\nAs stated in the beginning of the article, it may take a long time for you to hit your weight goal, but that does mean it has to be a hard process. Take the tips that were provided to you in the article, and you will make your weight loss process an easy one.",

Free and open to the public, the event will begin at 7 p.m. in Gannett Auditorium, Palamountain Hall.\nIn \u201cBlood on the Wheel\u201d by Herrera, blood is the motif. The rhythmic litany weaves imagery of blood through the lives of migrants and laborers, women and children, prostitutes and hoodlums, Mexicans and Bosnians. Herrera\u2019s other poems are spare, or partly prose, or as much visual as verbal\u2014a diversity he will bring to his March 23 reading.\nThe son of migrant farm workers, Herrera has won numerous honors for his poetry and novels, as well as his performance art and activism on behalf of migrants, at-risk youth, and others. He was educated at UCLA and Stanford University, and earned an MFA from the University of Iowa Writers\u2019 Workshop. His numerous poetry collections include 187 Reasons Mexicanos Can\u2019t Cross the Border: Undocuments 1971-2007, Half of the World in Light: New and Selected Poems (2008), and Border-Crosser with a Lamborghini Dream (1999). He became the 21st U.S. Poet Laureate in 2015.\nProfessor Viviana Rangil organized his Skidmore visit. She predicts students across the college will enjoy Herrera\u2019s public reading because \u201chis poetry is very socially conscious and up to the minute with international news and issues. He\u2019s also a performer, he has written books for children as well as adults, and he writes in both English and Spanish. He writes for a wide range of poetic tastes.\u201d\nHis time on campus will include a brown-bag lunch session, where he\u2019ll interact with students from Rangil\u2019s course as well as from an international affairs course on the U.S.-Mexico border, a study of Latino/a history, and courses in Spanish and Latin American studies.\nThe March 23 public event will include the awarding of an honorary degree from Skidmore. A Q&A with the audience will follow the poetry reading. Afterward, at a reception in the lobby, Northshire Bookstore of Saratoga Springs will cohost a book signing by the author.\nContact Andrea J.

Sounds pretty scary.\nPlease keep his daughter in your thoughts...\nWow, that\u2019s awful. Has she had health issues in the past or is this out of the blue?\nI'm not sure. I don't use Twitter super often, but I've been checking it more lately. So I'm not familiar with any history here, just what he posted in the past few days.\nthe silence since the last update is worrisome. hoping for the best.\nIndeed. I hope that they're just distracted with laughing and hugging. I had to spend time with my nephew in the NICU once, and it is a horrible experience, even as an uncle. I can't imagine what it feels like for parents.\nTerrible news. Hope she recovers.\nI'm nervous.\nI can't imagine what it feels like for parents.\nI don't have to imagine. Take it from me - it sucks.\nSorry you had to go through that.\nHe retweeted an ad for Bar Rescue (which I didn't realize he was on as a contributor) yesterday. He might've done it with some down time or it might be required in his contract, but I wouldn't think that he'd be on Twitter, retweeting Bar Rescue, if things were really bad.\nSo maybe things are better?\nHe's also on Instagram, and he's been a little bit active. It doesn't seem like there is a major update. Just needing more prayers.\nI just came here to post that!\nGot to be a good sign.\nIt's not good. His daughter is suffering quite a lot, and her life is still in danger. There is now a GoFundMe campaign set up to help the family out. Linked below:\nhttps://www.gofundme.com/25f8xjck\nAnyone with twitter have any (hopefully good) news to share about this?\nThis was posted on the GoFundMe page 8 days ago:\nThe past month has been busy for Indigo. She hasn\u2019t had any strokes or seizures, which is such a blessing. She spends every weekday in therapy, going back and forth between speech, physical and occupational therapies. She is also seeing a therapist to help manage her PTSD, which was caused by the confusion and terror she experienced while hospitalized before and after her brain surgery.\nWhile she is making progress, her speech pathologist has concluded that Indigo developed a speech processing disorder from the strokes. On her good days, she sounds almost as clear as she did before her disease manifested. On her bad days, she can\u2019t put sentences together or pronounce consonant sounds.\nPhysically, she is getting strong again after having to spend a month on bedrest. She falls more often than she used to because she is still rebuilding her coordination.\nMegan and Rob\u2019s hospital bills are starting to come in, and they are worrisomely high already. The total hospital bill for this first surgery is $270,000. Their insurance is refusing to pay for her daily hospital stay and a doctor that they consider to be \u201cout of network.\u201d So far, Megan and Rob owe the hospital $180,000 out of their own money. They have to be in good standing with the medical center before the doctors will schedule Indigo\u2019s second brain surgery.\nSo many of you have already helped so much. We appreciate all of you. Please share Indigo\u2019s story, and please keep sending her love and prayers.\n#indigostrong\nIt sounds like she is recovering, but it's a long, hard road. When my father had a severe stroke, we were fortunate to be working with a good hospital, which helped us to navigate all of the billing issues that popped up. He also had pretty good insurance when it first happened, so that helped. It's incredibly daunting, and to have it happen to a kid on top of all of that is horrible.\nDoes sound like she's going to be \"okay\" but as usual U.S. healthcare is an absolute horror story. I am literally inundated with these fundraisers. Give hundred's of billions to corporations so they can buy back stocks but nothing for even children's health.\nCan we not make this another political thread?\nI'm going to respectfully ask Grizzlor to take it to the politics thread. Thank you.",

        "title": "Essex Reporter: \"Nine-Year-Old Essex Jct. Native Joins SMC Swim Team\" - Saint Michael's",
        "raw_content": "This story originally appeared in the Essex Reporter. Also view a PDF on SMCAthletics.com here.\nBy Colin Flanders\nA large group of college students waited not-so-quietly in the St. Michael's College athletic building lobby last Friday. They were there to punctuate another week of classes with a trip to the pool \u2013 a frequent occurrence as members of the swim and dive team \u2013 but first, they had to meet their newest teammate.\nSuch an energetic group could be intimidating to even the most seasoned high school swimmer, so head coach Eileen Hall gently asked her welcoming committee to keep that in mind. Introducing her recruit a few minutes later, however, Hall found she had little to fear.\n\"We are here,\" she said, \"because we are welcoming \u2013\"\n\"Me!\" yelled Delaney Johnson, a 9-year-old Essex Jct. native, to the delight of the crowd. And with that, the SMC swim and dive team had welcomed its youngest member in college history.\nThe signing was the latest iteration of a partnership between SMC and Team Impact, a Boston based non-profit that connects children facing serious and chronic illnesses with local college athletic teams. Since 2011, Team IMPACT has matched nearly 1,600 children with more than 500 colleges and universities in 48 states, reaching more than 50,000 student-athletes.\nDuring her ceremony, Delaney penned a letter of intent and patiently posed for pictures with family and her new teammates. Then, she and her two younger sisters, Mara and Nina, hit the pool, and the college students struggled to keep up.\nDelaney was diagnosed with alternating hemiplegia of childhood, or AHC, at 10 months old and has battled the condition nearly all her life. Children with AHC experience a range of paralysis, from acute numbness in an extremity to full loss of feeling and movement. The attacks can last anywhere between minutes to days.\nThe team first met Delaney last month during the fifth-annual Del's Ride, a mountain bike and trail run started by Delaney's parents to raise money for AHC research. The fundraiser has brought in over $92,000 in the last five years.\n\"One of the things we really strive for as a family is building a sense of community for Del,\" said Ben Johnson, Delaney's father. \"This is just another way for Del to feel that sense of belonging and feel there's places to be where people really love and respect her.\"\nDelaney will join the team at practices, meets and other events. Her family will stay in contact with the team through two student advocates: senior captain Patty Kohn and junior Sarah White. Though their relationship is just beginning, coach Hall said her team has already learned a lot from Delaney.\n\"I don't think anything can prepare kids who have grown up normally abled to understand what you have to do on a day to day basis if you have a physical or a mental disability,\" Hall said. \"It's great for them to understand that swim practice isn't really all that hard, when you look at what Delaney has to do.\"\nDelaney's affinity for the water was quite evident last Friday as she made quick work of a few laps down the length of the pool. She then braved a jump from one of the starting blocks. According to her mother, Delaney's twice-weekly swim sessions at school are what her daughter looks forward to most.\nThat's a feeling her new teammates surely understand.\n\"She's just a kid that loves to swim, and we're just a bunch of kids that love to swim,\" Kohn said. \"It was a really good match.\"",

A lot of Mexicans don\u2019t even know the Afro-Mexicans exist. Outside their towns, they often get stopped by police who don\u2019t believe they can be Mexican. Some have even been deported, despite having Mexican ID papers.\nSo who are the black Mexicans? Lucy Duran meets members of this ethnic community that is struggling for identity and recognition. They use their culture, such as the characteristic Dance of the Devils or Chilena music, to assert their identity and fight for their rights.\nen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Mexicans\nAn Afromestizo from the coast of Oaxaca (below) holding a Pelota mixteca.\nA radio documentary from the BBC World Service\nActivists want the state to accept Black people as a separate ethnic minority, distinct from indigenous people, but with the same rights. It is not only about being able to hold your head high. It\u2019s also about money. Those fighting for official recognition say that they\u2019re not eligible for the special kind of financial support that similarly isolated indigenous communities get. They blame their poverty on this lack of funding.\nDr Lucy Duran meets black Mexicans ranging from a cowboy to a singer-songwriter and explores how they identify themselves, why even those who do not obviously look as though they are of African descent describe themselves as black, and why their identity has become a political issue.\nBut beyond the southern state of Oaxaca they are little-known and the community\u2019s leaders are now warning of possible radical steps to achieve official recognition.\n\u2018You may have had a grandmother who was black and feel black, even if you don\u2019t look it\u2019\nTulia Serrano Arellanes\nLos negros de M\u00e9xico que han sido \u201cborrados de la historia\u201d \u2013 BBC \u2026\nremezcla.com/culture/afro-mexicans-legal-recognition-constitution-mexico\nGaspar Yanga\u2014often simply Yanga or Nyanga (c.1545-?) was an African leader of a maroon colony of fugitive slaves in the highlands near Veracruz, Mexico during the early period of Spanish colonial rule. He is known for successfully resisting a Spanish attack on the colony in 1609. The maroons continued their raids. Finally in 1618, Yanga achieved an agreement with the colonial government for self-rule of the settlement, later called San Lorenzo de los Negros and also San Lorenzo de Cerralvo.\nIn the late 19th century, Yanga was named as a \u201cnational hero of Mexico\u201d and \u201cEl Primer Libertador de las Americas\u201d, and 1932 the settlement he formed, located in today\u2019s Veracruz province, was renamed as Yanga in his honor.\nMexico\u2019s Afro-descendant population for years has been virtually invisible; now, for the first time ever, the next national census will include the category of Afro-Mexican. Fletcher interviews NY Times Bureau Chief for Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean Randal Archibold about Mexico\u2019s Afro-descendant population. The next segment of the program deals with a fascinating yet virtually unknown chapter of US history, the biological and cultural bonds established between African slaves and Native Americans.

But there is one, that despite being present for 500 years, is invisible and vulnerable, are Afro-Mexicans. Remember that there are no official statistics on the population census on Afro-Mexican people and that according to data from educational institutions such as the Colegio de Mexico, are estimated around 200,000 nationwide; UNAM speaks of 450 000; researchers say they are between 2% and 9% of the total population of the country, but no one knows the actual numbers. \u201cThose who govern not know where they are and how many people make up these communities and peoples.

        "title": "degenerative disc disease",
        "raw_content": "Degenerative disc disease is one of the most common causes of low back pain, and also one of the most misunderstood.\nDegenerative Disc Disease is a Misnomer:\nA large part of many patients\u2019 confusion is that the term \u201cdegenerative disc disease\u201d sounds like a progressive, very threatening condition. However, this condition is not strictly degenerative and is not really a disease:\nPart of the confusion probably comes from the term \"degenerative\", which implies to most people that the symptoms will get worse with age. The term applies to the disc degenerating, but does not apply to the symptoms. While it is true that the disc degeneration is likely to progress over time, the low back pain from degenerative disc disease usually does not get worse and in fact usually gets better over time.\nAnother source of confusion is probably created by the term \"disease\", which is actually a misnomer. Degenerative disc disease is not really a disease at all, but rather a degenerative condition that at times can produce pain from a damaged disc.\nDisc degeneration is a natural part of aging and over time all people will exhibit changes in their discs consistent with a greater or lesser degree of degeneration. However, not all people will develop symptoms. In fact, degenerative disc disease is quite variable in its nature and severity.\nMedical Practitioners Disagree on Degenerative Disc Disease:\nFinally, many patients are confused about degenerative disc disease because many medical professionals don\u2019t agree on what the phrase describes.\nIn practical terms, this means that few practitioners agree on what does and does not constitute a diagnosis of degenerative disc disease. Even medical textbooks don\u2019t usually attempt to give an accurate description. Therefore, while many practitioners believe that degenerative disc disease is a common cause of low back pain in young adults, very few agree on the implications.\nWhile there is still a lot of debate in the medical community about degenerative disc disease, a few aspects of the condition are known. This article will discuss aspects of degenerative disc disease that are more commonly accepted, such as the theory of the degenerative cascade, as well as some areas of theory that are still a source of debate in the medical community.\nPain from Degenerative Disc Disease:\nThe lumbar disc is a unique and well-designed structure in the spine. It is strong enough to resist terrific forces in multiple different planes of motion, yet it is still very mobile. The disc has several functions, including acting as a shock absorber between the vertebral bodies.\nThe lumbar disc has been likened to a jelly donut. It is comprised of a series of bands that form a tough outer layer and soft, jelly-like material contained within:\nAnnulus fibrosus\u2014the disc\u2019s firm, tough outer layerNerves to the disc space only penetrate into the very outer portion of the annulus fibrosus. Even though there is little innervation to the disc, it can become a significant source of back pain if a tear in the annulus reaches the outer portion and the nerves become sensitized. With continued degeneration, the nerves on the periphery of the disc will actually grow further into the disc space and become a source of pain.\nThe nucleus pulposus contains a great deal of very inflammatory proteins. If this inner disc material comes in contact with a nerve root, it will inflame the nerve root and create pain down the leg (sciatica or radiculopathy). In the same manner, if any of the inflammatory proteins within the disc space leak out to the outer annulus and touch the pain fibers in this area, it can create a lot of low back pain.\nSource of the Pain:\nGenerally, the pain associated with degenerative disc disease is thought to stem from two different factors:\nAbnormal micromotion instability\nThe proteins in the disc space can cause a lot of inflammation, and inflammation in the disc space can lead to low back pain radiating to the hips. The associated pain can also travel down the back of the legs.\nIf the annulus\u2014the outer rings of the intervertebral disc - becomes damaged or worn down, it is not as effective in resisting motion in the spine. This condition has been termed \u201cmicromotion\u201d instability because it is usually not associated with gross instability (such as a slipped vertebral body or spondylolisthesis).\nBoth the inflammation and micromotion instability can cause muscular spasm in the low back. The muscle spasm is the body\u2019s attempt to stabilize the low back. It is a reflex, and although the body\u2019s response of muscle spasm is not necessary for the safety of the nerve roots, it can be quite painful.\nFull Article at Spine-Health.com",

        "raw_content": "When a Horn Section Doesn't Work with Blues\nMuddy's 1966 album Brass & The Blues; our case study\nThe stereotype for blues art and design is to always include a horn player, most of the time a saxophonist. It somehow emphasizes that a horn section is an integral part of a blues band.\nWhile it not unusual to have a horn section in a blues setting, keep in mind the blues did not come the city; where the music scene is slick and refined. It came from the Mississippi delta, from the cotton fields, where music was learned by listening to others; no formal training or instruction... very 'primitive' and raw. A place where a harmonica was called a \"Mississippi Saxophone\", where it was about the hardships and not about getting down to the dancefloor.\nSo even since the dawn of jazz in the early 20th century in New Orleans with Dixieland Jazz, it had an urban flavor to it. And urban centers, such as Chicago and New York City, were very welcoming to this style of music, eventually leading to the Jazz Era of the 1920's, swing era of the 30's, and bebop of the 40's.\nThe blues did not gain much popularity in the big cities until the mid-to-late 40's. One of the main Chicago blues pillars is Muddy Waters, whose raw Mississippi sound paired with electric guitars led to an explosion of inner city blues. None of these bands had horn sections.\nBut later on, artists such as B.B. King started adding a horn section to their band. It ultimately gave them a more R & B, soul/gospel feel. So now you can hear a difference between several bands; one reason that B.B. King was successful is that he played 'higher class music', per the words of Muddy Waters. Horns always evoke a feeling or aura of sophistication.\nWhich brings me to the point today; in 1966 Chess Records decided to 'renew' Muddy's sound by adding a horn section to his traditional blues. The results were mixed, but the album sold well enough.\nWith the addition of horns, the music automatically changed to a more R&B sound. This is not the issue here, but rather it did not mix with the style Muddy was bringing forward.\nSo if you ever get in a discussion about blues and horns, site the above example.",

The National Trust for Scotland will be launching its newest addition, the Playful Garden at Brodie Castle, and it promises to be a visit that will be full of fun for all the family. Located on the estate and near to the Castle, the new Garden will reflect the Brodie family history in a novel and fun filled way. The \u00a32.8million \u2018Priority Project\u2019, which is one of the first of a three year programme of investments across Scotland by the Trust, is supported by the Mutch Bequest. Speaking on behalf of the NTS, Trustee Kevin McCormick is delighted with this new development which is now taking shape. Says Kevin: \u2018This is a very exciting concept which will offer new opportunities to visitors and give all generations of families a chance to learn about the heritage of Brodie Castle in a family friendly way. It is a wonderfully fitting use of a bequest from a family who loved spending time together in the outdoors of Scotland, and particularly this area of Morayshire \u2019 Adds Kevin: \u2018The new Playful Garden at Brodie Castle will be showcasing many of these unique aspects of the Brodie family story. It will show that history and heritage are accessible, inclusive and, above all, fun. By attracting more visitors to the castle it will enable the Trust to protect these wonderful assets for generations to come.\" The Castle, located between Inverness and Aberdeen on the A96, was the ancient seat of the Clan Brodie from 1567 and was given to the care of the National Trust for Scotland in 1989 by Ninian Brodie, 25th Earl of Brodie. It is a popular attraction for its impressive family history, many antiques and unusual artefacts, walled garden, nature trails, walks and wide range of events. But perhaps its most exceptional feature is its daffodil collection started by the 24th Earl of Brodie and which is now a recognised National Collection of horticultural significance. Seen here is newly appointed Operations Manager Clare Taylor who is delighted with the new plans: 'As Operations Manager here at Brodie Castle, this brand new attraction will be an exciting addition for our visitors. Many already know and love Brodie Castle estate and this will offer a whole new experience. I am very excited at what we will soon be revealing - it is going to be a truly amazing great day out destination for the residents and the visitors to the area.'\nPHOTO CAPTION Seen here is Operations Manager Clare Taylor who is overseeing the delivery of the Playful Garden at Brodie Castle project.",

Service tax cannot be levied on any service which is not included in the list of taxable service.\nA service tax applies to certain prescribed goods and services in Malaysia including food, drinks and tobacco; provision of rooms for lodging and premises for meetings, conventions, and cultural and fashion shows; health services, and provision of accommodation and food by private hospitals.\nThe tax also applies to professional and consultancy services provided by accountants, advocates and solicitors, engineers, architect, surveyors (including valuers, assessors and real estate agents), advertising agencies, consultancy firms, management service provider, insurance companies, motor vehicle service and repair centres, telecommunication services companies, security and guard services agencies, recreational clubs, estate agents, parking space services operators and courier service firms.\nHowever, professional services provided by a company to companies within the same group will be exempted from the current service tax of 6%. Courier services provided from a point within Malaysia to a destination outside Malaysia will also be exempted from the service tax of 6%.\nGenerally, the imposition of service tax is subject to a specific threshold based on an annual turnover ranging from RM150,000 to RM500,000.\nSales tax is a single stage tax imposed at the import or manufacturing levels. In Malaysia, manufacturers of taxable goods are required to be licensed under the Sales Tax Act 1972. Companies with a sales turnover of less than RM100,000 and companies with Licensed Manufacturing Warehouse(LMW) status are exempted from this licensing requirement. However, companies with a sales turnover of less than RM100,000 have to apply for a certificate of exemption from licensing.\nLicensed manufacturers are taxed on their output while manufacturers that are not licensed or exempted from licensing need to pay tax on their inputs. To relieve small-scale manufacturers from paying sales tax upfront on their inputs, they can opt to be licensed under the Sales Tax Act 1972 in order to purchase tax-free inputs. With this, small-scale manufacturers can opt to pay sales tax only on their finished products.\nSales tax is generally at 10%. However, raw materials and machinery for use in the manufacture of taxable goods are eligible for exemption from the tax, while inputs for selected non-taxable products are also exempted.\nCertain non-essential foodstuffs and building materials are taxed at 5%, general goods at 10%, liquor at 20% and cigarettes at 25%. Certain primary commodities, basic foodstuffs, basic building materials, certain agricultural implements and heavy machinery for use in the construction industry are exempted. Certain tourism and sports goods, books, newspapers and reading materials are also exempted.",

        "raw_content": "Entrepreneurship typically focuses on identifying opportunities for creating customer value, ultimately yielding a profit for the funders and investors.\nSustainable entrepreneurship on the other hand takes a slightly different perspective by emphasizing the additional goal of promoting sustainable living, in terms of social equity and environmental improvement.\nStartup Mzansi Foundation strikes some balance between profit, community interest and nature in the execution of the entrepreneur\u2019s business activity. By establishing sustainable social enterprise, the young social entrepreneur can contribute towards job creation, economic growth and prosperity, hope and community stability. All positive spin-offs necessary to compete, grow and survive in the global village.\nOne difference between a traditional entrepreneur and a social entrepreneur is that the traditional entrepreneur is mostly concerned about profit and the social entrepreneur is only concerned about altruism. This is an oversimplification of the underlying differences between these types of entrepreneurs.\nEconomic wealth creation and social wealth creation are possible outcomes of any type of organization. A social entrepreneur differs from a traditional entrepreneur in two important ways.\nTraditional entrepreneurs may act in a socially responsible manner but are ultimately measured by financial results. The earned income strategies of social entrepreneurs on the other hand, are directly tied to their social mission. Profitability is still a goal, but it is not the only goal. For social entrepreneurs, the social mission is explicit and central.\nWealth is therefore just a means to an end and not the end itself. Making a profit, creating wealth, or serving the desires of customers may be part of the model, but these are means to a social end, not the end in itself. Profit is not the gauge of value creation; nor is customer satisfaction; social impact is the gauge.\nSocial entrepreneurs look for a long-term social return on investment and are a category of leadership that wants more than a quick \u2018hit\u2019, they want to create lasting social improvements in a community",

I hadn't seen her since my visit last year, and I've noticed her photography getting a lot better lately. She'd been after me to come visit so we could go shooting so, naturally, I accepted the invite.\nLisa had forwarded me no less than two dozen locales where she wanted to take me, but the sad reality was that there really are only so many hours in a day, so we would have to select from the ever expanding list she'd sent me. For our first stop, we decided on the Weatherly Trainworks in Weatherly, Pennsylvania.\nUnfortunately, I haven't been able to find much information online about the train works, and there's nothing available on site. What I do know about it is that I was surprised to learn that it's absolutely open and, considering that, I was equally surprised that there weren't more people (only Lisa and I were there). Considering the state of the site, I would've expected it to be closed to the public, as this place doesn't suffer a shortage of hazards.\nTo say it was abandoned would be a profound understatement. More than abandoned, the place stands in a state of complete ruin. There are temples in Greece that are in better condition than this place.\nWhich, if you think about it, is perfect for the kinds of things I like to shoot:\nIt would've been nice if there were more trains on site but, considering that the place is abandoned, I guess it's no surprise that they were taken away, for the most part, long ago. What was left, though, allowed for some cool photos of something that progress has pushed to the side...\nWhat I Did On My Summer Vacation - Part 5: Weather...",

Prior to March 2002, I was enjoying retired life in Biloxi, Mississippi, where I lived in and around for over 70 years.\nI am very proud to be a seventh generation American with a long lineage tracing directly back to Mr. George Stillman who immigrated from England in early 1686. Mr. George was originally from Steeple Ashton, Wiltshire County, England.\nMy life began in Garwin, Iowa where I lived for the first 11 years of my life. My father - Joseph LaVerne Stillman - and mother - Addie Carpenter Stillman - moved to Biloxi where my father participated in the construction of many of the local area homes during the next 30 years. My two brothers (Glen and Ralph) and a sister (Lucile), along with me, grew to adulthood in the Biloxi area - Ralph and I graduating from Biloxi High School - Glen and Lucile graduating from high school in Beamon, Iowa.\nI have always enjoyed fishing and sailing.\nIn the later-1930's while employed at the Tivoli Hotel in Biloxi, I met and courted another employee there - Marie Ann Hengen, daughter of John George Hengen.\nIn April, 1940 Marie and I were married.\nIn September 1942, a son - Alfred William (Bill), Jr. - was born to us.\nDuring World War II, I was on continuous duty assignment with the US Army Corps of Engineers at Mobile, AL; Keesler AFB, MS; Ft.

While there, I received a commission as an Reserve Officer in the US Air Force with the rank of Captain.\nIn 1953, I changed to an assignment at Headquarters, Technical Training, USAF, located in Gulfport, MS serving there until 1958.\nThis is a picture of Bill, Ann and Helen (early 1950's) and Margie (mid 1960's).\nIn 1952-53, we built our home in the rural area settled by Marie's father early this century on the north side of Biloxi Bay. The area is called Magnolia Bend - located on the north side of Biloxi Bay across from Keesler Air Force Base where I worked for over 10 years.\nIn 1958, our youngest daughter - Margaret Mae (Margie) - was born.\nIn 1960, I tranferred to Brookley AFB, Mobile, AL to work for the Air Force.\nIn 1968, I returned to work at Keesler until I retired in 1970.\nIn 1986 a family portrait was taken.\nIn April 1990, Marie and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary.\nIn November, 1994 Marie was called to eternal rest by God.\nA member of the First Presbyterian Church of Biloxi for over 40 years, I greatly enjoy the fellowship of church activities.

We had a great time together. We visited the Coptic Churches, the Cairo Museum, the Valley of the Kings, Luxor, Aswan and of course, rode camels past the pyramids. The people were very friendly though Pharoah's revenge was not. :):):):):) We learned a lot about hieroglyphics and to write our names in the ancient alphabet.

        "raw_content": "Russian vodka \u2013 is more than 510 years. According to the records of the Kremlin archives, only monks managed to get \u201cvodovka\u201d \u2013 a concentrated alcohol. Other historians dispute this date, arguing that in the Russian birch bark this alcohol drink was mentioned earlier.\nHowever, it does not matter when the birthday of the \u201cmash follower\u201d. There is interesting another thing.\nWhat church thinks about the creation of \u201cits brothers\u201d?\nIt is important to mention that the original \u201cvodovka\u201d was found by monks, being good resolves. The main purpose was \u2013 to find a remedy to cure human, to save him from illness. Taking to consideration that the basis of many infusions and drugs, being used today, is vodka, it is safe to say that priests have taken the first step to rescuing the man. And it is true.\nAnd where is the truth?\nWhile the production of intoxicating beverages was under the roof of the church, they, at a minimum, were qualitative. When the state laid its hands on strong drinks own hands, and began to increase \u201csales targets\u201d, a society has got a serious problem. The state was replenishing treasury with one hand while the other one killed human health.\nDuring all this time, the Church has hallowed all holy ones and miracle-working icons. Clergymen collected \u201cthe community of sobriety\u201d. There are similar projects in our days.\nMany people were surprised, but Orthodox prayers, and later the prayer for healing from alcoholism and drug addiction, really helped to save the health of relatives, and alcohol dependency, and drug addiction \u201cwent away\u201d. Then monasteries and their special centers left the former patients, not in order to extend the treatment, but that they could help others. Very often people apply for prayers of deliverance from alcoholism when the human has passed \u201ccoding\u201d or after failed experiments by \u201cconspiracies\u201d charlatans.\nDifferent prayers can help. Very strong among them is Lord\u2019s Prayer, the Prayer to Holy Spirit. There are special prayers to help to get rid of alcoholism and other sinful passions. For example, the Prayer to Savior, the prayer of St. John of Kronstadt from alcoholism, the prayers of St. Moses the Black, prayer from drinking and dope potion to healer Rev. Hypatia Pechersky and others.\nIn the Serpukhov Vysotsky Monastery at the end of the Divine Liturgy, every Sunday people pray with akafast, remembering suffering from an addiction to drinking of wine. Some pray for yourself and others \u2013 for their loved ones: someone has a husband abusing alcohol, someone\u2019s son, someone\u2019s sister.\nAll of them come and pray to the Mother of God \u201cThe Inexhaustible Cup\u201d. According to legend, it was like an inexhaustible source of help for people suffering from addiction to drinking wine. This happened in 1878. Retired soldier was so addicted to alcohol that has lost his wealth and health. Elder after repeated phenomena made a warrior, having no money and the opportunity to walk, to go the monastery on his fours. Here the traveler has told all that had happened to him. But nobody knew about that icon. And suddenly she was found in one of the aisles.\nThe retired soldier returned home in the church good health. The news about the miraculous icon has spread quickly. Since then, all the monasteries accept the suffering and help them to get though the illness with the help of this icon.\nROC against alcoholism and drug addiction\nThe Church believes that alcoholism and drug addiction destroys not only the body but also the soul. The worst thing is that this person loses \u2013 hope and faith in the healing and a normal life. Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) is humane to people who have got under the dependence of bad habits. Orthodoxy helps with the Word of God, talking with the priests, and of course, prayers of faith reviving, fight against the disease. Especially for these people \u2013 alcoholics and drug addicts, as well as their relatives -there is special group for anonymous treatment in churches. The combined methods of healing are used there. It uses the combined methods of healing. Spending time at work and prayers, patients are gradually getting rid of bad habits and at the same time get the bodily and so the spiritual help.\nMany people after that come to the church, not only to read the prayer to the Savior, and to thank him for healing and returning to the natural world for a human.\nThe history of the transformation of \u201cvodovka\u201d, as a remedy, into the vodka, as addiction, proves that any, even a harmless thing, being exalted to the rank of an idol, can cause harm. Church teaches \u201cdon\u2019t make an idol for you.\u201d But not everybody understands that and admits into the soul \u201ctreacherous guest,\u201d which overshadows both God and His love.\nTherefore, the Church believes that only the grace of God is able to get rid of passion.\nChristianity believes that one of the main virtues \u2013 is the golden mean. If you observe it, then any toast during the feast, even at a birthday will be with a kind smile, not with fear of threat to health and life.",

        "title": "The Harm of Alcohol for The Human Body: The Impact of Alcohol on Health | Stop Alcoholism",
        "raw_content": "The fact that alcohol harms not only physical but also mental health is known by every adult and child. The lethal outcome is not uncommon for drunk alcoholics who did not wish to be treated, or simply do not have time to contact the experts. Even when we are not talking about alcoholism, alcoholic beverages are directly harmful to human health. Every citizen who cares about their health and the health of their families and friends needs to know about the consequences of the use of alcohol beverages for the human body and psyche.\nScientists say that even small doses of alcohol can cause significant harm for the health of children and adults. Besides, now there are clinical studies that confirm the harmful effects of alcohol on the human body organs and systems. It\u2019s no secret that people are not always inclined to believe the assurances abstract doctors that alcohol is a poison. To ensure that there is no benefit in alcohol, it is necessary to understand in detail how the alcohol affects the body.\nAlcohol and its effect on the brain\nThe devastating impact on the brain \u2013 it\u2019s one of the worst effects of alcoholic beverages on a person. About the importance of brain for the functioning of the human body we know a lot, but some of the mysteries of our body are not yet solved. Despite this, it is absolutely clear that the brain is one of the most important centers; it plays the first role in a correct and adequate operation of the organism. The brain controls breathing, heart rate, swallowing, and many other more or less important life functions.\nAlcohol, used on a regular basis, it is the reason that in the brain there are irreversible changes that prevent the body from functioning properly. It is worth noting that the more and more often the patient consumes alcohol, the worse will be the consequences that provoke the use of beverages. Those irreversible consequences that arise from the constantly abusing citizens are currently the subject of research for many scientists. It is worth noting \u2013 change depends entirely on how frequently and intensely alcoholic drinks.\nAmong the factors that affect the brain of drinker, experts list the following:\nthe dose of consumed alcohol drink and frequency of its use;\nthe age at which the patient began to drink alcohol;\nthe duration of the time period when the patient is heavy using the chosen drink;\nage, sex of the patient;\nkind of activity of the patient and current occupation;\nthe presence of alcoholism in the family and among close and far relatives;\nthe presence of alcohol in the mother, provoking innate alcohol dependence;\nthe overall current level of alcoholic\u2019s health.\nIt is known that even small amounts of alcohol can lead to such consequences:\ninability to control the situation.\nThis can happen not only with children and women, who are more susceptible to alcohol due to physiological reasons but also to men who have a greater resistance to alcohol. Proved, that alcohol used by women and children, even in small doses, is able to cause a disproportionately greater harm than the men, who (according to statistics) consume alcohol more often and in large quantities.\nThe harm of alcoholic beverages for women has been proven long ago. The following physiological factors are the reason that the reaction of the female body for alcohol is stronger:\nincreased susceptibility of women brain to alcohol;\nmore rapid development of cardiac abnormalities;\nthe rapid emergence of cirrhosis or another liver disease;\nsevere damage to the nervous system.\nThe combination of these factors makes the ladies an easy target for producers of alcohol beverages. If we recall also that the reason for the use of alcohol for women is often a more psychological factor, it becomes clear how much alcohol is dangerous for the fair half of mankind.\nLong-term abuse of alcohol is dangerous by the fact that as a result of the patient\u2019s brain cells are inevitably destroyed. This leads to the disorders in the brain. It is known that disturbances in the brain arise directly as a result of alcohol consumption, and as a result of the effects that alcohol provokes. Among other factors affecting the brain are the following:\nthe occurrence of severe liver disease;\nreduction in body resistance;\ndrop in overall health levels as a result of alcoholism.\nIt is difficult to find a body or system of the human body to which alcohol would not have destructive actions, and the fact that the brain is one of the first, which suffering from alcohol, leaves no doubt.\nLack of thiamine in patients with alcohol dependence\nThiamine is an essential substance for the proper functioning of the body. Among people, it is more commonly known as vitamin B1. B vitamins are extremely important for the human body, and the lack of them can often give rise to a variety of pathological conditions. The brain is one of those bodies, for which adequate intake of vitamin B1 is critical.\nAs a rule, the alcoholic has a deficiency of this vitamin when there is poor nutrition, as well as violations of metabolic processes in the body, triggered by alcohol abuse.\nWernicke Syndrome is one of those diseases that often occur as a result of lack of thiamine B1. It is known that this syndrome has two stages:\nthe initial stage, which is called Wernicke encephalopathy;\nthe second stage, which has long called for, and Korsakow-syndrome.\nThe first stage is usually characterized by a brief aggravation, which quickly turns into Korsakow-psychosis. The second stage of the disease, although it has a calm nature, but capable of extraordinary deplete the alcoholic\u2019s body.\nAmong the symptoms of the disease, which has a double name, (Wernicke-Korsakow syndrome) experts list the following:\ndisorders in movements coordination;\nappearance of problems with vision (a consequence of damage to the optic nerve).\nAfter the onset of Wernicke\u2019s encephalopathy in patients in 80-90% of cases develop psychosis of Korsakow. At this point, there are begun severe memory lapses and have difficulty remembering new information. Patients suffering from Korsakow psychosis are characterized by such features:\nexcessive irritability;\npermanent residence in the doldrums;\nirascibility;\nthe occurrence of difficulties in walking;\nPatients suffering from Wernicke-Korsakow disease, usually forgetful, quickly irritated, often can\u2019t independently get out of the room. In addition, alcoholics with Wernicke-Korsakow often can\u2019t correctly reproduce the information that they had been told before the start of their disease. There are cases when patients forget what happened ten minutes ago with them. It is also often the case that alcoholic reproduces the information or fragmentary voices twisted and incorrect data.\nThe liver \u2013 is one of those bodies, which suffers from alcoholism first of all. Many people know that the liver, kidneys, heart and brain, as a rule, the first organs, which feel the devastating effects of alcohol and that is the case. Serious diseases of the liver \u2013 this is exactly what the alcoholism is leading to. Furthermore, excessive alcohol consumption leads to the destruction of the liver. It\u2019s not a secret that the liver is the organ that has to fight with a hit of alcohol in the human body. The question is what the liver is forced to produce substances directly involved in alcohol metabolism.\nThe liver, as the organ that has to deal with alcohol cleavage, is originally not intended for this purpose. As a result, it turns out that the liver gradually \u201cwear out\u201d, exhaust its resources, resulting in a gradual fatty degeneration. The destroyed areas of the body are not filled with new cells, hepatocytes, and fragments of adipose tissue. As a result, the working surface of a liver is substantially reducing. Hepatic encephalopathy is dangerous, but the fact that it can provoke further violations of the brain, making this disease more dangerous.\nThe essence of the effect of the diseased liver to the brain is that affected hepatocytes begin to secrete a large number of harmful substances, which are capable of detrimental influence on brain cells. When the output substances from the bloodstream enter the brain, this is what happens: under the influence of substances from the liver the brain cells are dying. The consequence is that alcohol not only causes direct harm to the brain but also has on it a destructive mediated effect by the diseased liver.\nHepatic encephalopathy has these symptoms:\npatient has disturbances of sleep;\nthe deterioration of the character (occurrence of irritability, moodiness, etc.);\nthe manifestation of anxiety and depression;\ndisorder of cognitive function of the patient;\nconcentration impairment;\ninability to coordinate its own motion.\nIt is necessary to know also that the damaged liver can become a cause of death of the alcoholic. This is the so-called hepatic coma, which usually becomes the cause of death for the patient.\nMost women know that alcohol is harmful during pregnancy, but not all fully understand the meaning of these words. Often you can observe how the woman is drinking a small amount of alcohol, she tend to think of \u201cquality.\u201d As a rule, in the discharge of such high-quality alcohol ladies include dry red wine, which supposedly is able to supply the body of a pregnant with all the missing minerals, as well as contribute to the strengthening immunity. At the moment, scientists and doctors have found that alcohol consumption is unacceptable for women who are expecting the birth of a baby. No matter what kind of alcohol and in what doses are used by the woman, it still is able to provide the same devastating effect on life, growing in her womb.\nPerhaps some readers will still remember that during the Soviet era obstetricians even recommended for pregnant women to consume red wine. As a rule, there was the talk of one tablespoon of dry red wine per a day. These tips were attributed to those useful properties possessed by red wine. Now these tips are considered direct wrecking the health of women and children. Every pregnant woman should keep in mind that alcohol is not the product that is able to provide any benefit in her condition.\nAmong other harmful to fetal effects of alcohol, consumptions are the so-called fetal alcoholism, which is also often referred to as congenital alcoholism. This form of alcoholism develops in the child in the womb and the risk that the baby in the future can be not only alcohol addicted, but also to have a number of serious deviations in physical and mental development. Slow growth, development, and pathology of the internal organs \u2013 is part of the consequences of alcohol use by the mother during pregnancy.\nDamage, caused to fetal brain by alcohol, can later be transformed into such ailments:\nreduction in brain volume;\nreducing the number of structural units of the brain;\nthe improper functioning of the brain cells.\nDrinking alcohol is not only a mother\u2019s casual attitude to her own health and the health of the future baby, but the real crime against the child. Many expectant mothers ask the doctors whether to drink at all impossible. Often you can also hear that drinking alcoholic beverages is allegedly permissible (according to women themselves). Do not assure yourselves and look for opportunities to part with your favorite alcoholic drink during pregnancy: every woman should know that alcohol is harmful during pregnancy in any quantity.\nWomen, who think that beer is a harmless to drink for pregnant women, are mistaken. Specialists, speaking about the impact of soft drinks on the fetus, say that mother who wants their child can use only half of those chances that were released to him by nature may continue to use half the usual amount of beer. I do not think that a beer or other alcoholic beverages will operate on the baby more gently than strong alcohol drinks. Also, it does not need to be deceived into thinking that the occasional use of alcoholic beverages does not affect the fetus and the health of the mother herself.\nThe problem of alcoholism of pregnant is also exacerbated by the fact that many women learn that they are pregnant only when a month passed after conception. During this period, being in the dark, she could easily drink alcohol in the usual doses for her. After learning about the pregnancy, perhaps even desirable, a woman begins to panic, as heard on the harmful effect of alcohol on the body of the baby. Experts recommend seeking the advice of an obstetrician-gynecologist, who will be able to objectively assess the situation before making a decision about the fate of life developing inside.\nTeens \u2013 one of those groups that are more likely to suffer from the effects of alcohol. Experts who say that alcohol is extremely harmful to women, also point out that the body of a teenager even more vulnerable. This is due to the fact that the teenager\u2019s body is not yet fully formed, there occur various processes of growth and development, for which alcohol affects negatively.\nAdolescents \u2013 is one of those groups that are more likely to suffer from the effects of alcohol. Experts, who say that alcohol is extremely harmful to women, also point out that the body of a teenager even more vulnerable. This is due to the fact that the teenager\u2019s body is not yet fully formed, there occur various processes of growth and development, for which alcohol affects negatively.\nThere are many different reasons that motivate teenagers to get acquainted with drinks for adults. In each case it is necessary to deal separately with the fact that was the reason that the teenager started to drink alcohol. However, we must remember that the harm that beer or wine can cause to the body of a teenager may be unrecoverable and will affect the fate of the future.\nIn case if t the parents and child have a relationship of trust, the conversation about the dangers of alcohol for the teenage body is not superfluous. Parents should choose the form of talks, which will be the most suitable for a conversation with the child. In addition, it is desirable for parents to use the arguments that will be weighty for their offspring. Naturally, such a conversation requires not just a well-established relationship between parent and child, but also knowledge of the psychological characteristics of the son or daughter.\nNeedless to say, that the conversation with the child, the contact with who was lost, will not bring any good? Moreover, there may be a situation in which the child will do everything possible to do in spite of their parents, that is begin to try alcohol, even if not originally felt him thrust or desire to try.\nParents, who have decided to have a talk with his son or daughter, must know the following facts, which may be able to play a significant role during the interview:\nethanol affects the brain of a teenager, breaking the chemical processes that take place in it;\nalcohol causes an arrest of developmental;\nalcohol has a depressing effect on the child\u2019s ability to various disciplines, arts, etc.;\nalcohol in a retarding way affects the formation of logical thinking;\nalcohol forces the student to degrade emotionally and intellectually.\nDepending on the priorities that are in the life of a teenager, he can be influenced in different ways in the course of preventive and educational talks. For example, if the child is interested in some of the school subjects, you can try to explain to him that beer can significantly affect its results and progress in the development of the subject.\nSeparately it is necessary to mention the harmful effects that alcohol has on the liver of a teenager. The fact is that the pupil\u2019s liver under the influence of alcohol collapses faster than adult liver. This is due to the fact that liver of a teenager has higher vascular insight. Besides, the child liver is not able to produce the required amount of alcohol to neutralize enzymes.\nThe following organs and systems of the body of a teenager are also affected by alcohol consumption:\nheart and blood vessels;\nthe stomach and intestines;\nurinary system;\nreproductive system;\nIt should also be noted that beer has a strong diuretic effect, often it\u2019s the reason that the body of a teenager is washed away many valuable minerals and vitamins. As a result, a teenager not only begins to suffer from damage caused by alcohol directly, but also because of deficiency of the necessary substances.\nAbout that how harmful alcohol to children you can hear from variety sources: social services, children\u2019s doctors, and health organizations provide propaganda against teenage drinking. It should be noted that typically the teenager starts to think that the alcohol is harmful only after he diagnose of a particular disease. Just in such a situation, the conversation about the disastrous consequences of drinking for the growing organism can have benefits. The teenager will be inclined to listen to reason and heed the advice and admonitions of parents, teachers, and doctors.\nIt will be useful to allow the teenager to communicate with senior colleagues, who had problems with alcohol, but were able to realize the viciousness of craving for alcohol and time to recover from teenage alcoholism. To learn exactly how to organize such a meeting is for your own child, it is best to consult with a specialist in drug treatment and psychologists, who will prompt the best solution to the problem.",

Later, as usual, he/she dissapears and I feel a lot of anger because I couldn't say no\u201d. \u201cI think about him/her all the time. I can't concentrate about anything else\u201d.\n\u201cEvery time I think about ending this relationship, I panic\u201d.\n\u201cWhen he/she doesn't call me, I cry, become distressed, I can't sleep or eat and end up feeling depressed\u201d.\nThese phrases are said often but the people who suffer an affective dependence. It is a more common sickness that what one might think.\nIn the same way as a drogadict, an alcoholic or a gambler, this person can't set himself free of this dependence, he also feels unable to get out from a destructive relationship. Making himself trapped and miserable.\nThere are also people who tell that they lost the amount of times that they broke, ended the relationship, and then came back, unable to live their lives without this person, no matter how much suffering he brought to their lives.\nThe animals, when they are very young, become independent from their parents, and when they insist on wanting to suck from her mother, get nothing but a kick out. But on the other side, we, as human beings, are very fragile, and during a long time, we are completely dependent on our parents. We call this primary symbiotism when there is a healthy dependence relationship between mother and baby, in the same way as it happens with all beings in the nature. On the other side, we call secondary symbiotism when the dependence continues and in many cases goes on to the end of life. This kind of dependence only exists between humans and no other animals, even those who live in communities. In this way, many men and women reflect this on their love relationships. So a man who had a very posesive and controlling mother, might unconscionally reproduce this kind of relationship, looking for woman with a similar profile.\nLoving isn't something negative at all, it is always something positive, that brings happiness and joy to people, but it is when that happiness becomes broken and control, fear, and dependence takes place that we are no longer talking about a healthy feeling.\nSome of the symptoms of affective dependence are:\n- Losing interest in yourself, a decrease on self-esteem.\n- Lack of personal care\n- Sudden increase or decrease of appetite.\n- Lower performance at work or studies\n- Constant urge to know what the other person is doing\nWhat to do about affective dependence?\nThe first and most important step, it is recognize the problem itself. You must recognize that to love is not to suffer. You must understand that pushing your partner toward you, or being pushed your partner, isn't the way to live a proper relationship, as freedom and understanding should be the basis of any relationship.\nThe second step is to improve self-esteem and self-confidence. As this happens we give more freedom and we care more about ourselves, respecting each other.\nThe third step is to look for help, from friends, relatives and finally from proper specialists.",

        "title": "Speaking \"out\" with Andrei Buendia, Asia's overall best speaker \u2013 TEAM",
        "raw_content": "Social media hasn\u2019t been particularly peaceful these days. Everyone\u2019s a crusader, critic, or political pundit. When it comes to queer issues, scrolling through comment threads means having to deal with the occasional troll and bigot armed with Bible scripture or verbal threats. While there are other ways we can show our strength as a community besides engaging such scum, sometimes a good argument does the trick. Who better to demonstrate this than Andrei Buendia, an LGBT advocate, political consultant for Senator Risa Hontiveros, and winner of the overall best speaker award at the United Asian Debating Championship held in Cambodia recently. He is the tournament\u2019s first openly gay Best Speaker.\nThese days, queer voices of reason like Andrei\u2019s are precisely what we need. TEAM sat down with Andrei to talk queer activism and how everyday gays can let their rainbow flags fly high.\nHi Andrei. Have you always been a tough person to challenge verbally? What were your earlier experiences in debate like, especially since you\u2019ve been doing this since high school?\nOh no! In my first debate tournament, one of our opponents from Claret A, started his speech by saying, \u201cA wise man once said\u2026\u201d and I ran a rebuttal saying, \u201cbut who is this wise man?\u201d (Laughs) The funny thing was I thought that I was giving a good rebuttal. I\u2019d like to think I\u2019ve gone a long way since.\nIn general, my first year of debating, which was in 3rd year high school, was very frustrating and I just always had the mentality that I could be better than the recognized debaters. Some would say cocky, but I say it was a much-needed dose of belief in one\u2019s self. I really think that my refusal to succumb to tougher teams and the fighting spirit that I had is what allowed me to achieve what I\u2019ve achieved.\nHow has the atmosphere changed over time for debates centered on LGBT issues?\nIt\u2019s changed drastically! Debates in the past would focus on legal rights and media representation. Today, LGBT issues are discussed with a lot more recognition of the fact that issues of sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression (SOGIE) are experienced differently by members of the community. Before, trans problems would be conflated with gay or lesbian problems. There were also times when bi-erasure was quite rampant in discussions.\nToday, however, a lot of the debates have become very sensitive to the specifics of each identity and how discussions must recognize these differences. There are much more debates about the trans community, sexual fluidity, and the spectrum of SOGIEs.\nYou\u2019re also a member of the LGBT Chamber of Commerce right?\nI\u2019ve been a little inactive for a while because I was focusing on my new job and the recent Asian Championships. Now that I\u2019m retired from competitive debating, however, I plan to make more time for it. Currently, I\u2019m working on a networking event for LGBT fresh grads. It\u2019s a partnership with Wells Fargo, but the details haven\u2019t been fleshed out yet. I hope it pushes through, though!\nPhoto of Andrei Buendia and Pax Michelena participating in the #LipstickWithLove challenge\nYou and your boyfriend, Pax, are regularly involved in equality initiatives. For LGBT people who do not have the privilege to be out to their loved ones, how do you think they can be involved, as well?\nI\u2019d just like to take this moment to say thank you to Pax! He\u2019s honestly the best support system and he really inspired me to do well in debate. Seeing him train every night to be a World Champion was really something that showed me that hard work does work! I love you, darling!\nIn terms of how LGBT people can be involved, I think everyone can be an advocate in their own ways. Sometimes a conversation over dinner will be enough to make conservative parents think differently about our community. Sometimes calling someone out for using the term bakla in a demeaning way can make people rethink the small micro-aggressions they commit against us. I\u2019m sure I\u2019ve lost a lot of friends to this, but sometimes it\u2019s enough to just know who accepts you and who doesn\u2019t. Screw those people who don\u2019t. If you can\u2019t be out and proud, at the very least, you should surround yourself with people who are decent human beings.\nThere are also opportunities to be involved without being out of the closet. Organizations typically recognize that not everyone is ready for the same level of visibility. The Chamber, for example, has lavender seats on the board for Board Members who are not publicly LGBT. I think it\u2019s great that people get to decide on their own terms when they want to be open about who they are.\nAndrei Buendia and Pax Michelena\nI guess everyone\u2019s a debater on social media these days, especially with the tumultuous political atmosphere we\u2019ve got. Is this frustrating for someone like yourself who\u2019s adept at forming arguments?\nWe live in interesting times. People believe what they read online more than they believe the academe and the media. This is really because Facebook has failed to recognize that it has assumed the role of traditional media institutions. This is harmful to the extent that it has not imposed the same journalistic standards on bloggers who spread misinformation.\nI think it is effective only for people who have the means to monopolize the discussion. It is effective in spreading propaganda because the huge amount of people\u2014real or not, who are of similar beliefs\u2014makes everyone else feel like they are alone in believing in human rights, civil liberties, and freedom. This makes humane individuals scared to speak out. It\u2019s important not to be scared so they can\u2019t take the Internet away from us. We should not let them silence us.\nI still believe in social media\u2019s power to bring issues to light. Given the huge amount of investment that politicians\u2014hello, have you seen the PCOO\u2019s budget?\u2014put into social media, it is reasonable to believe they care about what goes on online. We saw this in the Arab Spring and I think as long as the Internet is reclaimed by real people\u2014i.e. not trolls\u2014we can see the Internet and social media as a platform for democratic exercise once again.\n#LipstickWithLove Andrei Kristian Buendia gay LGBT Pax Michelena Stonewall x Silang The LGBT Chamber of Commerce United Asian Debating Championship\nPrevious article Manage your sexpectations: a Primer for PrEP\nNext article Queer web series \"Before I Got Famous\" tackles the infamy of Asian stereotyping\nCustom Declarations \u2013 Greetings from a gay in Vienna\n30 reasons why #R30 was the gay event of the year\nMurdering labels on the dance floor",

        "raw_content": "by Richard \u2014 January 10, 2016 at 10:12 am | no comments\nCarol Kuruvilla Religion Associate Editor, The Huffington Post\nA koan is a riddle or puzzle that the Zen Buddhist use during meditation to help them unravel greater truths about the world and about themselves.\nZen masters have been testing their students with these stories, questions, or phrases for centuries. Many koans can be traced back to the collections of sayings amassed by Chinese priests in the 12th and 13th centuries.\nKoans may seem like paradoxes at first glance. It is up to the Zen student to tease out their meaning. Often, after a prolonged and exhausting intellectual struggle, the student realizes that the koan is actually meant to be understood by the spirit and by intuition.\nDon Dianda, author of \u201cSee for Your Self: Zen Mindfulness for the Next Generation,\u201d put it this way in a blog for Elephant Journal:\nThe koan serves as a surgical tool used to cut into and then break through the mind of the practitioner\u2026 Koans aren\u2019t just puzzles that your mind figures out suddenly and proclaims, \u201cAha! the answer is three!\u201d They wait for you to open enough to allow the space necessary for them to enter into your depths\u2014the inner regions beyond knowing.\nhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/zen-buddhism-koan_563251dce4b0631799115f3c",

        "raw_content": "Mental Health 105 - \"I regret to inform you\". The suicide bombshell.\nIt\u2019s the worst email you can get in the morning, \u201cI regret to inform you that our colleague and friend Nicholas passed away in the night\u201d.\nI've received this kind of email twice, and at the time you have no idea what has happened. But sadly a few months later the rumours go around that Nicholas did no \u201cpass away\u201d peacefully. I myself was temping in IT support at the time of one of those emails, and had to reclaim the machine of the deceased, going through files in his account and hard disk, deciding any work related ones. Unfortunately for a number of files that meant opening, quickly visually scanning the contents, and moving anything that could be important to a shared drive.\nI found it unnerving to go through his things, and really didn't want to delve into his private life. But all the same, it became apparent even from my quick visual scanning of documents that he'd written a lot of letters to lawyers, going through divorce and custody hell. Nicholas (not his real name) had been going through a difficult time, and few of us at work would have guessed.\nEven now, it feels unfair, even under the shield anonymity to reveal this about him. However these details did eventually come out during the inquest into his death many months later.\nThis isn't my only brush with suicide. I've written previously about my friend Violet, and the effect her life and her death had on me. There I wanted to celebrate her life, and to talk about how I dealt with mourning her loss.\nThere were some details I omitted though \u2013 I\u2019d mentioned that Violet had issues with mental health which had seen her committed for a period of time, as well as a previous failed suicide attempts. Ironically she was the first peer mental health sufferer who I formed an open friendship with, and she was severely influential in my life. I learned that fellow sufferers can get a great deal of support by sharing their troubles with someone else who \u201cgets it\u201d. This picture, like no other reflect my friendship with her,\nThose conversations over the years of our friendship really turned my life around \u2013 because I could talk through things with her that it was difficult to talk to anyone else about, without judgement.\nSadly though in 2010 her life started to spiral \u2013 she was on a new medication system which she was finding difficult to find balance on. Unfortunately people have to occasionally change their meds, and as Violet was on a combination of pills for various difficulties she had, there could be complex side effects that could cause whole weeks wiped out in a \u201czombie\u201d state as she adjusted. She\u2019d also spent years waiting for a free slot with a specialist therapist to try and deal with some of the issues and reduce her medication dependence.\nIn hindsight we\u2019d talked about her stints in mental institutions, and she\u2019d ominously said that she\u2019d never go back there. Her landlord started motions to (illegally) evict her, something which is a difficult trial for someone with her level of anxiety, for which your flat is your only \u201csafe\u201d area.\nOne day she went quiet. People phoned, but there was no reply. The next day, the Police battered down the door, and found her dead on her bed surrounded by empty packets of medication. It took months to get information \u2013 I was told her blood toxicology results were inconclusive. She had alcohol and elevated levels of medication. Coroner eventually erred on the side of accidental over deliberate overdose, but given the circumstances, I've always been in doubt.\nWhether Violet was or wasn't a statistic, suicide is unfortunately something that does go on. In New Zealand, suicide kills more people than road traffic accidents (almost twice the number) \u2013 and almost 75% of those who die are male. That is an alarming number \u2013 it\u2019s the single preventable cause of death in men 16-40. It\u2019s a chilling statistic.\nLast year I was lucky enough to attend the Whirlwind Workshop on men\u2019s mental health on Kapiti. Whirlwind is an initiative to promote men\u2019s mental health, and provide a network to both support and discuss issues frankly. I'm pleased to say that Qual IT, one of New Zealand's premier IT test consultancies are amongst their sponsors \u2013 it\u2019s nice to see an IT company involved in this, as going around the support groups in Wellington, I've seen an alarming number of our industry as end users of these kinds of services, and their tale is often all too the same. Project managers and programmers who pushed themselves, until something broke, with the some finally seeing a doctor for help, or eventually ending up in care for a limited time.\nYet they are still the lucky ones \u2013 for some, their problems, and the dark places they inhabit just feel too overwhelming. Martin Sloman of Whirlwind sums it up when he says it\u2019s a difficult thing for many men to admit they need help, \u201cmen are very bad at coming forward and embracing this kind of challenge \u2026 it\u2019s unblokey\u201d, and yet this attitude of shame is leading people to feel it\u2019s easier to end their life than to live with the shame of a badge like \u201cdepression\u201d.\nProblems in life can feel daunting \u2013 but in life as in IT, we know that breaking complexity down, you can work on it a piece at a time. Problems can be dealt with, support can be got, but death is so huge and permanent and \"unfixable\".\nNicholas\u2019s suicide ended the custody battle with his wife \u2013 but it left a gaping hole in the life of his children. Something could have been settled and negotiated. But instead his children are left trying to understand why he did this, and why they\u2019ll never see their father again.\nAs I said about Violet, before the inquest I would spend alternate days so upset she was dead, or feeling so incredibly peeved she did this.\nIf you are feeling depressed or suicidal, I really encourage you to talk to someone \u2013 pick up the phone. A good place to start is the Samaritans \u2013 most countries have a branch somewhere. If that doesn\u2019t help, just type the words \u201csuicide hotline\u201d into Google, and see what your local options are.\nDon\u2019t think you\u2019re too weak, and don\u2019t think it\u2019s just you!\nA powerful video - and worth watching ...\nMark Warner August 24, 2017 at 1:22 PM\ndiet for a health kidney",

        "raw_content": "4 Harbingers Of Stock Market Doom That Foreshadowed The 2008 Crash Are Flashing Red Again\nSo many of the exact same patterns that we witnessed just before the stock market crash of 2008 are playing out once again right before our eyes. Most of the time, a stock market crash doesn\u2019t just come out of nowhere. Normally there are specific leading indicators that we can look for that will tell us if major trouble is on the horizon. One of these leading indicators is the junk bond market. Right now, a closely watched high yield bond ETF known as JNK is sitting at 35.77. If it falls below 35, that will be a major red flag, and it will be the first time that it has done so since 2009. As you can see from this chart, JNK started crashing in June and July of 2008 \u2013 well before equities started crashing later that year. A crash in junk bonds almost always precedes a major crash in stocks, and so this is something that I am watching carefully.\nAnd there is a reason why junk bonds are crashing. In 2015 we have seen the most corporate bond downgrades since the last financial crisis, and corporate debt defaults are absolutely skyrocketing. The following comes from a recent piece by Porter Stansberry\u2026\nSo far this year, nearly 300 U.S. corporations have seen their bonds downgraded. That\u2019s the most downgrades per year since the financial crisis of 2008-2009. The year isn\u2019t over yet. Neither are the downgrades. More worrisome, the 12-month default rate on high-yield corporate debt has doubled this year. This suggests we are well into the next major debt-default cycle.\nAnother thing that I am watching closely is the price of oil.\nA massive crash in the price of oil preceded the stock market crash of 2008, and over the past year we have seen another dramatic crash in the price of oil.\nMany had been expecting the price of oil to bounce back, but instead we are seeing new downward momentum. In fact, according to Business Insider the price of U.S. oil briefly dipped below $43 a barrel on Wednesday\u2026\nCrude oil was down nearly 3% in morning trade on Wednesday.\nWest Texas Intermediate crude oil futures in New York dropped to as low as $42.97 per barrel. Futures touched a $42-handle in the last week of October, but last traded near those levels for a considerable period in August.\nAnother thing that I am watching is the ongoing crash of other industrial commodities. This is something that also preceded the stock market crash of 2008, and it is a clear sign that global economic activity is really slowing down.\nPrices for industrial commodities such as aluminum, tin, iron ore and coal are all crashing. But the commodity that has me most alarmed personally is copper.\nEconomists commonly refer to it as \u201cDr. Copper\u201d, and there is a very good reason for that. Looking back over history, the price of copper often makes a significant move in one direction or the other before the overall economy does. And the price of copper almost always starts declining before stocks do.\nAs I write this, the price of copper has fallen to $2.21, and it is already lower than at any point since the last financial crisis. To get a better perspective regarding what I am talking about, just check out this chart. This is one signal that is absolutely screaming that a major financial crisis is imminent.\nOne more harbinger of financial doom on the horizon is the surging U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar surged just before the financial crisis of 2008, and now it is happening again.\nMost Americans don\u2019t understand this, but the truth is that a rising U.S. dollar puts an incredible amount of stress on emerging markets all around the globe. Since the last financial crisis, many of these emerging markets have been on a massive debt binge, and much of that debt was denominated in U.S. dollars. Now that the dollar has increased in value, emerging market borrowers are finding that it takes much more of their own local currencies to service and pay back those debts. Defaults are rapidly rising, and emerging market economies all over the world (such as Brazil) have already plunged into recession.\nIf the Fed does follow through with an interest rate hike in December, that is going to make things even worse. The U.S. dollar will surge even more, and emerging markets will be in even more trouble.\nAt the same time that the dollar is getting stronger, the euro is getting weaker. An article that was posted by CNBC on Wednesday went so far as to state that \u201cit is now looking like the euro reaching parity with the greenback is all but guaranteed\u201d\u2026\nThe prospect of the Fed hiking interest rates in December has pushed the dollar higher, and it is now looking like the euro reaching parity with the greenback is all but guaranteed.\nStrategists, however, disagree on how quickly that will happen and how much more the dollar can appreciate in the near term. That depends, they say, on the Fed, and how fast it will raise interest rates in a world where other central banks are moving in the opposite direction toward easier policy.\nGoldman Sachs analysts this week reiterated that they expect euro parity with the dollar by year-end though other strategists expect the decline in the common currency against the dollar to take longer.\nLet\u2019s see, who has been warning that this would happen for more than a year? Here are just a few examples\u2026\nJuly 19th: \u201cFor a long time, I have been repeating my prediction that the euro would fall to parity with the U.S. dollar.\u201d\nJune 28th: \u201cAs I have warned repeatedly, the euro is heading for parity with the U.S. dollar, and at some point it will drop below parity.\u201d\nMay 25th: \u201cAs I have warned so many times before, the euro is headed for parity with the U.S. dollar, and then it is going to go below parity.\u201d\nIn August 2014, just a little bit over a year ago, the EUR/USD was sitting above 1.30. At that time very few people out there would have ever imagined we would be talking about parity just a little more than a year later.\nThis is just the beginning of a time of great financial volatility. The things that we are going to witness in the months and years to come are going to be absolutely unprecedented. A massive global debt super-cycle is coming to an end, and the pain that this is going to mean for the global economy is almost too great to put into words.",

        "raw_content": "After many sleepless nights and nappy changes, you deserve a little bit of downtime. While ditching the \u201cparenting thing\u201d and escaping to a tropical island where you can sleep till noon may seem tempting, a family holiday offers the perfect opportunity to build new memories and bond with your new arrival.\nTo make booking a luxury baby-friendly holiday easy, we\u2019ve put together some of our favourite destinations, hotels and other travel recommendations. Our guide will help you plan the perfect luxury holiday.\nShort Haul: Tuscany, Italy\nOnly a two-hour flight from London, Tuscany is perhaps one of the best places in Europe for a first family holiday. Italians love little ones and often go out of their way to lend a helping hand. Many restaurants provide high chairs and formula and nappies are easily obtained in local supermarkets.\nSome of Tuscany\u2019s main tourist attractions, especially in Florence, aren\u2019t fantastic for prams, so we recommend bringing a baby carrier.\nMedici Palace \u2013 Florence. With its walled garden, extravagant inner courtyard and contemporary art exhibitions, the Medici Palace should be on the top of anyone\u2019s bucket list. This is one attraction where having a baby carrier really comes in handy.\nFlorence Streets. As most new parents know, a walk in the pram can be a godsend when your little one gets fussy. Thankfully, Florence is a fantastic place to walk and has many beautiful streets packed with quaint cafes for that much-needed jolt of caffeine. You can also see some fantastic sights during your walks like the copy of Michelangelo\u2019s David in the Piazza Della Signoria or Duomo Cathedral.\nTuscan Countryside. Renting a car and driving into the Tuscan countryside is the ultimate highlight. You can stop off at vineyards, explore small yet stunning ancient towns and admire Italy\u2019s natural beauty. Make sure to either bring your own car seat or reserve one in advance as not all car companies provide them.\nTravelling with a baby can still be glamorous. Italy has a fantastic range of stunning family-friendly luxury hotels. Here are our favourites:\nFour Season Hotel Firenze. Located in a breathtakingly beautiful 500-year-old palazzo and 16th-century convent, the five-star Four Season Hotel Firenze is the ideal choice for a baby-friendly luxury holiday. It\u2019s also home to Florence\u2019s biggest private botanical garden, so there\u2019s plenty of room for babies to practice their crawling.\nRocco Forte Hotel Savoy. Situated in the heart of Florence, halfway between the Uffizi Gallery and Florence Cathedral, the Savoy is a fantastic five-star family-friendly hotel. With its convenient location, you can easily dash back to your hotel room for any baby-related needs or when nap time approaches.\nGrand Hotel Bellavista Palace & Golf. An hour drive from Florence, the Grand Hotel Bellavista Palace & Golf allows you to escape into the Tuscan countryside in style. From every room, you\u2019ll be graced with stunning views.\nRead our guide to the best hotels in Florence\nRead our guide to the best hotels in Tuscany\nBest Time of Year to Go to Tuscany\nWith a small baby, you\u2019ll want to avoid peak holiday seasons during school breaks. Avoiding the summer season will also make sure the heat\u2019s not unbearable. The best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons of September to November and April to May when temperatures hover between 16 to 22 degrees Celsius.\nLong Haul: New York, USA\nWhen you think about baby-friendly holidays, New York might not immediately spring to mind. But, the USA is remarkably well equipped to welcome little travellers with nappies, formula, baby food and other supplies readily available. Almost every restaurant has high-chairs, bathrooms have changing facilities and nearly all tourist attractions are handicapped accessible, meaning that bring a pram here is no problem.\nCentral Park. With paved paths running throughout, Central Park is a fantastic place to bring the baby for a walk. Little ones can feed the ducks, have a picnic on the grassy areas or even visit the exotic animals at the zoo.\nEmpire State Building. A trip to New York would be incomplete without a visit to the Empire State Building. Kids are welcomed here and an elevator takes you to the very top so you can easily bring the pram. From the top, you\u2019ll be graced with stunning views across the city.\nBrooklyn Children\u2019s Museum. As the first museum in the USA designed specifically for children, kids of all ages, even very little ones, will delight in a trip to Brooklyn Children\u2019s Museum. For babies, we particularly recommend the sensory room, where they can play using sensory mats, objects, and swings.\nNew York has some fantastic luxury baby-friendly hotels. It\u2019s important to choose a hotel in a good location, ideally within walking distance to key sights, to minimise the time you\u2019ll need to spend on public transport or travelling by taxi.\nPark Lane Hotel. Speaking of great locations, the five-star Park Lane Hotel is a two-minute walk to Central Park as well as the shops of 5th Avenue and a ten-minute walk to Rockefeller Centre and MoMA. Ideal for running back to the hotel room for a quick nappy change or nap time.\nThe Beekman, a Thompson Hotel. The five-star Beekman hotel is another fantastic choice for young families. You can choose to stay in one of the suites to make sure you can still sit up with a glass of wine after the little one goes to bed.\nInterContinental New York Barclay Hotel. A ten-minute walk from Times Square and Rockefeller Center, this five-star hotel is popular with young families. Children\u2019s cots are available upon request.\nFlying to the States can be expensive during school holidays and New York City can become sweltering hot during the summer. Autumn (September to November) is a great time to visit as the days are mild and the trees are alight with New England\u2019s famous foliage. Visiting at the end of November at Thanksgiving would allow you to see the iconic Macy\u2019s Thanksgiving Day Parade with its massive balloons.\nUK: Edinburgh, Scotland\nA personal favourite, Edinburgh is a perfect baby-friendly destination. Nearly all the attractions are located within easy distance of the city centre and the city is relatively pram-friendly (especially when compared to other European cities). You can find baby necessities almost everywhere and there are some lovely attractions designed specifically for little ones.\nEdinburgh Castle. Sitting high above the city the UNESCO heritage site should be an essential part of any Edinburgh itinerary. The streets leading up to and throughout the castle have cobblestones but are relatively easy to bring the pram up. There\u2019s also changing stations available within the castle and plenty of places to sit while feeding the baby.\nEdinburgh Botanical Gardens. Edinburgh Botanical Gardens offer the perfect place to run off some extra energy and allow little ones to practice their crawling (or walking) skills. The cafe is very baby-friendly with high-chairs readily available and plenty of kid-friendly meal options for babies eating solids.\nSouth Queensferry. Recognised as a UNESCO heritage site, the Forth Rail Bridge attracts many tourists. Yet, South Queensferry has more to offer. You can take the pram on a long walk through Dalmeny Estate, visit one of the family-friendly cafes or have a picnic on the lawns of Hopetoun house.\nEdinburgh has a wide range of family-friendly hotels and many are located in the city centre. The city\u2019s main form of public transport are buses, which means that regardless of where you stay you can easily access the main tourist attractions without having to walk too far or struggle with the pram on the subway/underground.\nThe Principal Edinburgh George Street. Housed in a Grade II building, The Principal is a five-star upmarket chic hotel within easy walking distance of the city\u2019s main attractions. You can book family rooms and cots are available upon request.\nRadisson Collection Hotel. The Radisson is the only luxury hotel located on the Royal Mile and it\u2019s only a few minutes walk to Edinburgh Castle. As such, this is a great choice for young families as you can easily return to your hotel if your wee one gets fussy or needs a nap.\nWaldorf Astoria. Originally built in 1903 as part of Edinburgh\u2019s central railway station, the Waldorf Astoria is a bit of an Edinburgh institution and rightly so. You\u2019ll have access to a swimming pool as well as a range of excellent spa treatments for that much-needed break. Children\u2019s cots are also available on request.\nRead our guide to the best hotels in Edinburgh\nEdinburgh\u2019s temperature remains relatively mild and a bit wet throughout the year. May often has the most sunshine with temperatures around 20 degrees Celsius. August is another great time of year to visit as Edinburgh Festival overtakes the entire city offering a fantastic range of performing art shows, everything from dance to drums.",

        "raw_content": "Those little monsters who terrorize the congregation with their out-of-control behavior. Those darling babies and toddlers who are smothered by the loving attention of the entire congregation, and for whom teenage girls compete as babysitters.\nThose juvenile delinquents who run up and down the aisles of the church and treat the sacred buildings as their own personal playroom.\nThose teenagers who look so angelic on Sunday and test their parents\u2019 patience during the week, the subject of ten thousand stories in deacons\u2019 homes, who exasperate the seniors in the church who are hoping for a little peace and quiet this Sunday.\nThey put the gray hairs in their preacher-dad\u2019s head and the great stories into his sermons.\nThey put the lines in their mom\u2019s brow and the thrill into her heart. They occupy the major portion of their parents\u2019 prayers day and night.\nGod bless \u2019em. We love our PKs. Our preachers\u2019 kids.\nIt\u2019s the same today. In this fallen world, bringing children up in the fear and nurture of the Lord to become faithful disciples of Jesus Christ will not happen easily, naturally, or accidentally.\nA pastor\u2019s wife wrote. \u201cYou\u2019ve written on what to say and what not to say to pastors and their spouses. But what about the pastors\u2019 children? Say something to them.\u201d This is a more complex subject. It\u2019s much harder to get a handle on.\nI need to confess I was never a PK. I\u2019m a CMK, a coal miner\u2019s kid. That\u2019s about as far to the other end of the spectrum as one can get. The privileges are fewer, the circumstances vastly different, and the expectations considerably lower. But my three children are PKs. They know. God bless \u2019em.\nMy 10 thoughts to the sons and daughters of God-called ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ:\nYou are blessed indeed.\nYou will have privileges and opportunities most children never have. You will be raised in church by the finest teachers and nurturers there are. You will go on trips with your family and church groups, and sometimes will stay in vacation homes your family could not afford in a lifetime but which are provided without cost by people who love you and your folks. So, I suggest you start by counting your blessings.\nYou are indeed on display.\nSorry about that, but it\u2019s just one of those facts of life. Your dad is going to use the story of something funny you said in a sermon, whether you find it embarrassing or not; it\u2019s a preacher-thing. The adults will think it\u2019s cute and they will turn in your direction and smile. Your friends will be embarrassed for you and will tease you. It\u2019s been this way since year one.\nPeople are watching you. But that\u2019s not all bad. Remember the line from 2 Chronicles 16:9 that says, \u201cThe eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is completely His.\u201d So, He\u2019s watching too, but not with an evil intent. He\u2019s looking around to see whom to bless.\nLikewise, church members who keep an eye on you almost all want you to do well. They are pulling for you. (And the ones who are not, well they don\u2019t count.)\nYou have an incredible team of supporters.\nNow, I\u2019m not na\u00efve about these things. Not every church is healthy and not every congregation treats the pastor\u2019s family honorably. But most really do want to get this right.\nMy three children had a host of adult leaders and encouragers to bless them, starting with the other staff ministers and including Sunday School teachers and choir leaders and chaperones. And they didn\u2019t charge a dime for their services! Just like everyone else in church, they were there to bless in the name of Jesus.\nYou are a sinner and will make mistakes, some more serious than others.\nRomans 3:10 and 3:23 apply to you as well as the rest of us. No one (to my knowledge) expects you to be perfect. (Okay. Even if they do, they\u2019re unrealistic and you should smile at them and go on. They\u2019ll grow up.)So, cut yourself some slack, and don\u2019t beat up on yourself, just go on to Number 5.\nYou must come to know Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. You must be born again.\nBeware of having a second-hand religion. That is, trying to get to Heaven by the faith of your parents. You must be born again. God has no grandchildren, and no one is \u201cgrandfathered\u201d into the Kingdom. You must be born again. Just as dad and mom cannot chew your food and think your thoughts, they cannot believe on the Lord Jesus for you. You must do this yourself. You must be born again.\nAs a Christian, you must cultivate a daily relationship with Christ.\nThis means reading the Word daily and praying, confessing your sins, and bringing every area of your life under His Lordship.\nThe emphasis is on \u201cdaily.\u201d Carve out a definite time and a specific place where you can pull aside and read the Word and pray quietly. And don\u2019t be in too big a hurry. Learn to read and pray, then sit quietly for a bit. Have something to write on in case the Lord calls something to mind. Then read some more and pray more.\nPray for your parents and expect them to be unreasonable sometimes.\nYour friends find their parents to be exasperating at times, and there\u2019s no reason to expect yours will be different. But the great test of your faithfulness is whether you will submit to them (read Ephesians 5:21) when you disagree.\nIt\u2019s tough being a parent at any time. But for the pastor and his wife, the complexity and expectations are much higher. So, pray the Lord will give them wisdom and courage.\nExpect some folks in the congregation to be unloving or unkind.\nBy lowering your expectations, two things happen: a) You won\u2019t be disappointed when someone is harsh or unloving, and b) you will appreciate those who are loving and generous and kind toward you and the family. But if you always expect everyone in church to be Christlike and understanding, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.\nAlways remember that anyone can join a church, no matter their mental health or maturity level. Churches attract all kinds of people. Wise parents will work hard to protect their children, but they cannot always do that. So, be prepared and don\u2019t let the harshness of a few hurt you or hinder your own faithfulness.\nLearn to love the unloving, and you will honor Christ, bless your own life, please your parents, and bear a strong witness.\nSeize the opportunities coming your way.\nLet me tell you something I\u2019ve noticed over the years. On various college campuses when I would do ministry to student groups, often the most talented singers and most confident leaders were PKs who had been brought up in small churches. Because their youth groups were small and their dads were the preacher, they inherited leadership roles more by default than by talent. But as they served, they grew in ability and confidence, and now when they find themselves on a large stage\u2013on a campus with thousands of peers\u2013they\u2019re ready to lead.\nMy oldest son was a soloist in childhood musicals. As a teen he sang in the church youth choir. In college, he became a member of an elite vocal ensemble that traveled and represented the school. In adulthood, he has often been a soloist in church pageants. The first training he received in singing took place in the family automobile as we traveled to grandmas.\nEncourage other PKs you will meet along the way.\nYou will occasionally come across the offspring of ministers who are angry at churches where their fathers served and who have not been to church in years. \u201cI still believe in God,\u201d some will say. \u201cBut not in Christians.\u201d You can help them. After all, you\u2019ve been there to one extent or other. You know some of what they are feeling. Encourage them to keep their eyes on Jesus and to \u201cdo church,\u201d not because people deserve it but because a) Christ commanded it and b) we need it. Pray for them, and don\u2019t expect them to automatically change because of your words. But give them time and give the Lord room to work.\nGod bless you for your faithfulness.\nBy Joe McKeever, used by permission http://joemckeever.com/wp/",

        "raw_content": "Three Things You Need to Know about Mississippi State\nFollowing a three-game home stand, the Alabama Crimson Tide (9-0, 6-0 SEC) makes the short jog over to Starkville to battle the Mississippi State Bulldogs (7-2, 3-2 SEC).\nThe Crimson Tide has a nine-game winning streak over the Bulldogs and leads the overall series 80-18-3.\nLast season, Alabama dismantled Mississippi State 51-3 at Bryant Denny Stadium and looks to win their fifth straight game in Starkville.\nMississippi State started out the season 3-0, lost their next two but have reeled off four wins in a row and have already exceeded last year\u2019s win total of six games.\nPrior to Saturday\u2019s 6 PM kickoff, find out the three things you need to know about Mississippi State.\nDramatically Improved Defense\nWhile the offense caters to the running and passing ability of quarterback Nick Fitzgerald, the reason that Mississippi State is 7-2 coming into this weekend is their improved play on defense.\nUnder first year defensive coordinator Todd Grantham, the Bulldogs have transformed from one of college football\u2019s worst defenses to one of the most underrated defenses in the country.\nIn 2016, Mississippi State ranked 110th in the FBS in total defense (459.1 yards per game), 120th in pass defense (281.5 yards per game), 70th in rushing defense (177.5 yards per game) and 93rd in scoring defense (31.4 points per game).\nThis season, they are seventh in the country in total defense (289.3 yards per game), eighth in pass defense (165.2 yards per game), 23rd in rushing defense (124.1 yards per game) and 14th in scoring defense (18 points per game).\nWith an increased emphasis on fast, aggressive play, Grantham\u2019s defense leads the SEC with four defensive touchdowns (three interception returns and one fumble return).\nBesides the big play ability of Nick Fitzgerald, the Mississippi State offense line has done an outstanding job of protecting Nick Fitzgerald\nThe Bulldogs have allowed the third fewest sacks in the FBS with just five sacks allowed. Only Army and Marshall have given up fewer sacks.\nIn addition to outstanding pass protection, the line has opened the running lanes for Fitzgerald and running back Aeris Williams as the team is 11th nationally with 259.3 rushing yards per game.\nBe Careful on Special Teams\nSpecial teams is an area that Mississippi State has excelled at over the last few seasons.\nSince 2014, the Bulldogs lead the conference and are third nationally with 14 blocked kicks and punts. Since Dan Mullen\u2019s arrival in Starkville, Mississippi State has blocked 25 punts or kicks.\nThis season, Jeffery Simmons blocked a PAT and a punt against Louisiana Tech in the squad\u2019s 57-21 win in Ruston, Louisiana.\nFiled Under: Mississippi State Football, Three Things You Need to Know",

        "raw_content": "The Worst Album of the Year\nTwo Great Tastes That Taste Awful Together\nI hear a lot of records. So naturally, I hear a lot of bad records.\nMost of them aren\u2019t really bad, of course, just boring. Some of them rise to the level of awful, and those are the special ones \u2013 the ones on which nothing seemed to go quite right, usually involving a lack of talent running smack into an abundance of pretension and foolhardy ambition. I kind of cherish those bad records, and enjoy playing them again just to marvel at the wrong-headedness on display.\nBut then there\u2019s that third, remarkably rare category. It takes an extraordinary amount of effort, an almost Herculean number of bewildering decisions, to make a record so bad, so painful, that I never want to hear it again. I admit to being in awe of these clusterfucks, and of the astonishingly addled thinking behind them, and I of course want to own them, because I can hardly believe they really exist \u2013 that real, thinking people not only conceived of them, but carried them out, like intentionally spreading a plague. But I never want to hear them again.\nWhich, of course, brings me to Lulu.\nIn case you\u2019ve been living under a blessedly sound-proofed rock, you know the details of Lulu. A collaboration between Lou Reed and Metallica, it is based on a series of sexually frank plays by German writer Frank Wedekind. It spans 90 minutes over two discs, and Reed sings most of it from the point of view of a female dancer turned prostitute who, in the end, willingly becomes a victim of Jack the Ripper. Yes, this is a real thing that you can go into a store and buy, should you so choose. But don\u2019t. Seriously, don\u2019t.\nLet me make it plain at the outset \u2013 there is nothing I can say here, no combination of words I can use that would adequately describe the mind-numbing, teeth-clenching, please-kill-me experience of listening to Lulu all the way through. Most of the time, I simply couldn\u2019t believe what I was hearing. I can\u2019t think of anything that would have prepared me for it. The idea of Lou Reed and Metallica together is not a particularly strange one, but the fact that they got together and made this is, quite frankly, almost impossible to fathom. I sometimes like to pretend I can put myself in the artist\u2019s place, and imagine what they were thinking when they created something. This? I have no idea. None.\nSo, all right. You\u2019ve probably heard \u201cThe View,\u201d the wretched first single. Endless, rote thudding from Metallica, while Reed babbles like a dementia patient, and James Hetfield adamantly insists that he is the table. There\u2019s just nothing good about it, nothing that would make you want to hear it again. Now, imagine this \u2013 \u201cThe View\u201d is easily, without doubt, the best song on Lulu\u2019s first disc. The remaining 35 minutes are so bad that I yearned for the relative genius of that song.\nWhat makes them so bad? Well, there are two sort-of rock songs \u2013 opener \u201cBrandenburg Gate\u201d and \u201cIced Honey\u201d \u2013 that are both brain-freezingly boring. \u201cBrandenburg\u201d uses a Lynyrd Skynyrd chord progression, acoustically at first and then at full power, Hetfield screaming out \u201csmall town girl\u201d as if he were suffering a stroke right then and there. Reed\u2019s first line is \u201cI would cut my legs and tits off,\u201d and it just spirals down from there. And \u201cIced Honey\u201d is two chords hammered idiotically for four minutes while Lou babbles.\nAnd then there are the three \u201cart\u201d pieces. Holy hell. I can\u2019t even explain these to you. \u201cMistress Dread\u201d is like the worst sixth-grade metal band in your neighborhood bashing it out ineptly for seven unchanging minutes while their drunken grandfather rambles about sadomasochism. (\u201cI beg you to degrade me, is there waste that I could eat, I am a secret lover, I am your little girl, please spit into my mouth\u2026\u201d) \u201cCheat On Me\u201d asks its one question (\u201cWhy do I cheat on me\u201d) again and again and again and again and again for 11 ass-aching minutes, while the band goes absolutely nowhere. Eleven minutes! You\u2019ll want to kill yourself.\nAs a longtime Metallica fan, I was perfectly willing to blame Lou Reed for all of this, but I can\u2019t. Hearing Hetfield bellow out \u201cWhy do I cheat on meeeee-yuh?\u201d over this impossibly shitty riffing is like watching a loved one slowly waste away in front of you. This is at least 50 percent Metallica\u2019s fault, and in some ways they\u2019re living up to their brief \u2013 creating ugly music that repels those who don\u2019t understand it. But it\u2019s never been this ugly and this difficult to understand. Reed? I have never had any use for Reed, and this just cements my disgust. His vocals are unlistenably bad, his lyrics unconscionably vile.\nTake \u201cFrustration,\u201d the eight-minute opening track of the second disc. While Metallica does their best impression of a garage band that can\u2019t play, Reed spits out this shit: \u201cI feel a pain creep up my leg, blood runs from my nose, I puke my guts out at your feet, you\u2019re more man than I, to be dead and have no feeling, to be dry and spermless like a girl.\u201d He repeats that last one more than once: \u201cMarry me, marry me, marry me, I want you as my wife, spermless like a girl!\u201d At some point in this endless monstrosity, I think Lou just decided to start shouting whatever came to his mind.\nAt this point in the album, you\u2019re really going to be ready for shorter songs, and for a quick end to the torture. Luckily, then, the last three tracks clock in at 8:01, 11:10 and 19:28, respectively. \u201cLittle Dog\u201d sounds like it was made up on the spot, acoustic meandering in one speaker and formless electric noise in the other while Lou just talks about dogs licking things and smelling shit in the wind. \u201cDragon\u201d is similarly unlistenable for about three minutes, just noise and babble, and then slams into a repetitive, stock riff for the next 480 interminable seconds. Lou talks about \u201cthe taste of your vulva\u201d and \u201cpiercing your nipples until I bite them off.\u201d\nAnd I feel like setting myself on fire. It physically hurts.\nThe epic-length closer, \u201cJunior Dad,\u201d aims to be a balm. It\u2019s calmer, more peaceful, and ends with about 10 minutes of droning orchestration, which is nice because Lou isn\u2019t talking on top of it. But the song is terrible, repetitive garbage. Granted, at the end of this record, it feels like \u201cA Day in the Life.\u201d But it\u2019s worthless. Midway through, Lou begins sorta-singing about \u201cthe greatest disappointment,\u201d and I couldn\u2019t help thinking he was talking about the song itself.\nLulu is, in virtually every way it could possibly be, a complete disaster. It\u2019s Chernobyl, and its radioactive tendrils will follow its makers for as long as they live. Reed will be fine \u2013 he\u2019s supposed to do stuff like this every once in a while, to remind people that he\u2019s a poisonous snake. But Metallica, they just don\u2019t come back from this. It\u2019s a millstone around their necks. They could release Master of Puppets II and, to their loyal fans who have been kicked around mercilessly for nearly two decades, they will still be the band that made Lulu. This is it for them. What a terrible way to go out.\nAs for me, well, I\u2019ve been a Metallica fan since the \u201880s. I stuck with them through Load and Reload and St. Anger, hoping for better, and rejoiced when Death Magnetic delivered. So this feels like a gut punch. I don\u2019t even know this band. It\u2019s that bad. It is a clusterfuck of monumental proportions, one of the worst things I have ever had the misfortune to listen to. Here\u2019s the most honest and harsh thing I can say about it: I never, ever, ever want to listen to Lulu again.\nWhen I was a lad, I would have loved to see metal\u2019s Big Four tour together. Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer, on the same bill? Oh, to dream the impossible dream. And now they\u2019re actually doing it, touring as a quadruple bill, and I\u2019m way too old to go and enjoy it. And as we\u2019ve just established, Metallica has decided to walk off a cliff while carrying an anvil. (Ooh, no pun intended there, I swear.) So yeah, no Big Four show for me.\nBut damn if the rest of the foursome wouldn\u2019t be worth seeing. Take Megadeth, for example. After years of increasingly awful records, they hit a stride with 2004\u2019s The System Has Failed, and they\u2019ve been getting better ever since. Dave Mustaine has figured out what kind of music he ought to be making, and he\u2019s making it. It\u2019s a rebirth I never thought I\u2019d see, and now, with the new Megadeth album Th1rt3en, that resurrection is complete.\nTh1rt3en, despite its stupid spelling, is the best Megadeth album since Countdown to Extinction. I\u2019m going to pause for a second while you read that sentence again. Yes, I\u2019m serious. For one thing, it\u2019s the first to feature bassist Dave \u201cJunior\u201d Ellefson in 10 years, and the difference he makes is incalculable. Mustaine sounds revitalized, and his songwriting is back to its peak. Megadeth was always a technical, thrashy band, but with a real melodic edge to what they do, and Th1rt3en contains some of the best such songs in a long time.\nThree of these tunes (\u201cNew World Order,\u201d \u201cBlack Swan\u201d and \u201cMillennium of the Blind\u201d) are older, but making their proper album debut here. Mustaine has clearly taken inspiration from these songs, and crafted an album around them to match. Single \u201cPublic Enemy No. 1\u201d is classic Megadeth. \u201cWe the People\u201d finds Mustaine spitting out his political anger over a mid-tempo powerhouse riff. And speaking of riffs, check out the monster one on \u201cNever Dead.\u201d Mustaine hasn\u2019t sounded so much like his old self in more than a decade.\nAlso welcoming an old member back into the fold is Anthrax, whose Worship Music is their first record with singer Joey Belladonna in 21 years. Anthrax, to my mind, had no lost ground to gain back \u2013 they\u2019ve been kicking ass consistently since at least 1985, and their five albums with John Bush are just as good as anything else in their catalog. But man, Worship Music is good. If they needed a comeback, this is it.\nAnthrax was always the more straight-ahead thrash band of the bunch, and album opener \u201cEarth on Hell\u201d reaffirms that stance. It\u2019s jackhammer chugging and double-time beats and Belladonna yelling his little heart out, and it makes me smile. Belladonna sounds surprisingly great here \u2013 I\u2019ve always thought of his voice as somewhat thin, which is why John Bush was such a strong replacement. But he sounds superb throughout Worship Music, like he spent the intervening years working on his sheer power.\nBetter than that, though, the songs are impressively strong. \u201cThe Devil You Know\u201d could have fit on Among the Living, and \u201cFight \u2018Em \u2018Til You Can\u2019t\u201d is a perfect Anthrax single, a show of force that\u2019s almost withering. Scott Ian trades off lead vocals with Belladonna, Ian taking the shouted, thrashy sections while Belladonna handles the soaring chorus. Plus, it\u2019s about fighting zombies, and you don\u2019t get more Anthrax than that.\nThe quality stays high all the way through. Six-minute stomper \u201cIn the End\u201d opens with church bells, then erupts into a crawling riff for the ages. It evolves over its extended running time into a true epic, with some Iron Maiden touches. \u201cThe Giant\u201d finds Belladonna trading vocal lines with himself over an absolutely crushing beat. \u201cThe Constant\u201d is exactly what you\u2019re hoping for, Lost fans \u2013 a metal epic about Desmond Hume, with a chorus that won\u2019t quit. Worship Music is a new classic Anthrax record, a welcome return for their most beloved singer, and another fine chapter in this band\u2019s history.\nSo we\u2019ve got Megadeth and Anthrax coming back strong, and if you work in Slayer\u2019s impressive 2009 effort World Painted Blood, three of the Big Four are firing on all cylinders. Which leaves us with a Metallica problem. But that\u2019s easily solved \u2013 ditch them, and get a much better, more modern metal band to take their place. If I may be so bold as to suggest someone, I would go with Mastodon.\nThis Atlanta quartet has been awesome for more than 10 years, and has some truly classic metal platters in their discography. Their last three, in fact, have shown phenomenal improvement while still remaining heavy as hell. 2009\u2019s Crack the Skye brought some progressive rock influences in, particularly on the 11-minute \u201cThe Czar,\u201d but still struck with blunt force. Live, they\u2019re a steamroller, taking all comers. They\u2019ve been called the greatest metal band of their generation, and it\u2019s hard to argue.\nOh, and they have a terrific new album called The Hunter. It\u2019s simpler and more melodic than previous Mastodon records, but still heavy. Only glimmers of the prog-rock remain \u2013 there\u2019s no epic track, and in fact only two songs break five minutes. Some of the textures here are a real departure for the band as well, but they still bring that break-you-in-half power to most of these tracks. Oh, and hey, here are some of the amazing titles: \u201cBlasteroid,\u201d \u201cStargasm,\u201d \u201cOctopus Has No Friends,\u201d \u201cCurl of the Burl,\u201d \u201cBedazzled Fingernails.\u201d They\u2019re clearly headed new places on here.\n\u201cStargasm\u201d is especially odd, with its Bowie soundscapes and soaring melody. The title track is similarly unfamiliar, remaining a semi-psychedelic mid-tempo thing for its entire running time. But then they hit a stunner like \u201cAll the Heavy Lifting,\u201d or \u201cSpectrelight,\u201d and it\u2019s clear they\u2019re still Mastodon. The Hunter is a transitional work, without doubt, and Mastodon is becoming more accessible, but they\u2019re doing it without giving up the raw power they\u2019ve always brought to the table.\nAnd speaking of James Hetfield (\u201cI am the table!\u201d), if Metallica can\u2019t bring their A-game any longer, it\u2019s about time to bring aboard a band that can. The Big Four will always be the Big Four, and I\u2019m not kidding anybody. But how great would a Megadeth-Anthrax-Slayer-Mastodon show be? Who among us with an affinity for metal wouldn\u2019t pay to go see that?\nNext week, it\u2019s SMiLE time again. Leave a comment on my blog at tm3am.blogspot.com.

        "raw_content": "Evil Arrows Helps Pass the Early Days\nThe new Choir album is called Shadow Weaver.\nI mention this up front because it is the single most significant piece of musical information I learned over the last seven days. I\u2019m certainly not shy about proclaiming my love for the Choir \u2013 they\u2019re probably my favorite band, and every time they announce a new record, it\u2019s a major event in my house.\nIt\u2019s hard to explain, really \u2013 why do I get so excited about new music from a basically unknown group of old guys from Nashville, who play out only a few times a year, often to a crowd of merely dozens? Thankfully, the music speaks for itself, and most people who hear the Choir end up loving them. They play a darkly ambient form of pop music, all expansive, reverbed guitars and fascinating beats and glorious little melodies. They\u2019ve never made an album I don\u2019t like \u2013 even the worst ones, like Diamonds and Rain, have some classics, like \u201cRender Love.\u201d\nShadow Weaver comes out in March sometime. It\u2019s being self-released by the band, like every album they\u2019ve made for 10 years, and it was fully funded through a successful Kickstarter campaign. It\u2019ll be their 15th, following up The Loudest Sound Ever Heard, from 2012. I gave that album a lukewarm review, but it\u2019s steadily grown on me, to the point where I love it about as much as its two predecessors. I find it a little earthbound, still, so I\u2019m heartened by the fact that every snippet of music I\u2019ve heard from Shadow Weaver has been spacey and dreamy and sublime.\nI\u2019m spending so much time talking about the new Choir album because we\u2019re still in that part of the year where the upcoming albums are more exciting than the ones hitting stores. I\u2019m right now listening to what I consider the first major release of the year, Transatlantic\u2019s Kaleidoscope, and even that isn\u2019t what most would think of as an important new record. Broken Bells\u2019 After the Disco, out next week, comes closer, but the first real event is Lost in the Trees\u2019 Past Life on Feb. 18. The year is going to be great, but it isn\u2019t quite yet.\nSo let\u2019s keep talking about the great stuff making its way to us over the next few months. For instance, Beck just released the first full song from Morning Phase, his reportedly low-key comeback. It\u2019s called \u201cBlue Moon,\u201d and it\u2019s gorgeous. Yes, this album is overhyped. But listen to this. If it\u2019s all this good, the hype won\u2019t matter.\nSpeaking of gorgeous, one of the guys from Explosions in the Sky has teamed up with the guy from Eluvium to form a new band called Inventions. I can only imagine how absolutely gorgeous this is going to be. If you don\u2019t know, Explosions are a \u201cpost-rock\u201d band, making instrumental soundscapes with glorious guitar tones, and Eluvium is a one-man ambient project, mixing drifting drones with lovely piano pieces. So yeah, this album \u2013 out April 1 \u2013 is pretty high on my list of things to look forward to.\nAnd speaking of unlikely yet perfect team-ups, Aimee Mann and Ted Leo have just announced the self-titled debut from their collaborative project, The Both. This is a pairing that I never imagined, but hearing the first tune from it, \u201cMilwaukee,\u201d it\u2019s clearly one that should have happened before now. Mann is one of the best pop songwriters alive, and Leo ain\u2019t too bad himself. Their mixture seems to capture the melodic grace of Mann\u2019s work and the spiky, guitar-fueled energy of Leo\u2019s. It\u2019s kind of perfect, and I can\u2019t wait for this. It\u2019s out April 15.\nIt seems like more goodness is announced every day. For now, all we can do is wait.\nWell, that\u2019s not completely true. I do have something worth reviewing this week, and it was an altogether pleasant surprise.\nIf you\u2019ve been reading this column for a while, you know that I\u2019m a big Bryan Scary fan. He\u2019s one of those folks out to save real pop music. You know, the kind with big, bold melodies and inventive arrangements, the kind that comes packed with sweet surprises every few seconds. The last time Scary made an album, it was called Daffy\u2019s Elixir, and it was amazing. (Hear for yourself.) It\u2019s the kind of insanely great record that makes you realize that some people\u2019s brains work at faster speeds and higher gears.\nScary\u2019s new project is possibly his most ambitious. It\u2019s a band of sorts called Evil Arrows, and under this umbrella, he plans to release 60 or so new songs this year. They\u2019ll come out in monthly installments, one EP at a time. The first one is out already, and you can hear it here. It\u2019s six short songs, mostly performed with drummer Michael LaVolpe and guitarist Graham Norwood. But Scary says some of these Evil Arrows tunes will be full band efforts while some \u2013 like two of them on this first EP \u2013 will be solo efforts. And Scary\u2019s good enough that it takes some effort to tell which is which.\nOn the surface, nothing about the Evil Arrows material is surprising. It\u2019s all quirky, catchy pop music that could sit nicely next to much of what Scary\u2019s done before. But these songs are all easier to digest than the crazy whirlwind of Daffy\u2019s Elixir. \u201cRomancer\u201d is practically a ditty, and \u201cSilver Bird\u201d finds Scary slipping into a bit of a Bob Dylan riff, with plunking ragtime piano over the top. \u201cWide Open Yonder\u201d is a terrific little driving song, with a convincingly rock and roll chorus. These tunes are all tightly written, compact little wonders.\nThe only problem is, it\u2019s over before you know it. I could have gladly listened to five more songs as enjoyable as \u201cJennifer Kills the Giant (Once a Week),\u201d which appears here in a piano-and-drum-machine sketch. \u201cLaura Lies\u201d is an acoustic ditty that leads into old-time whistle-led piano-pounder \u201cThe Lovers\u201d perfectly, but three minutes and one second later \u2013 after a superb \u201cla-la-la\u201d outro \u2013 it\u2019s over. And I want more. It\u2019s going to kill me to wait a month between each of these Evil Arrows projects. But I guess that\u2019s what we\u2019ve been talking about this whole time. Waiting and waiting.\nNext week, Kaleidoscope, which is kind of awesome. Leave a comment on my blog at tm3am.blogspot.com.

        "raw_content": "The 2018 Primetime Emmy nominations will be announced Thursday, July 12 at 11:30 a.m. ET from the Television Academy's Saban Media Center in Los Angeles by The Handmaid's Tale's Samira Wiley and New Amsterdam's Ryan Eggold.\nCheck out the live stream of the nominations above.\nIt's returning to face formidable competition: \"The Handmaid's Tale\", the dystopian sci-fi series that claimed top drama honors a year ago, drew 20 bids, with \"Westworld\" close by with 21.\nOn the comedy side, it'll probably be a toss-up between Atlanta and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel for the series trophy, since reigning three-time victor Veep missed the eligibility period this year. \"Atlanta\" will face newcomers including \"The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, \" \"Glow\" and \"Barry\".\nHBO's fantasy dragons-and-swords saga is a two-time best drama victor that sat out the last year's Emmys because of its production schedule. Although it's up for top series honors, it drew only three supporting acting bids for cast members Lena Headey, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Peter Dinklage.\nIt will be co-hosted by \"Saturday Night Live\" comedians Colin Jost and Michael Che.\nOut of the 91 nominations previous year, HBO won 29 statues overall (10 in Primetime categories, 19 in Creative Arts), while Netflix won 20 (four in Primetime, 16 in Creative Arts).\nMaurizio Sarri to be announced as manager in next 48 hours\nChelsea have \"struck a gentleman's agreement\" with Maurizio Sarri for him to become their new manager, according to reports from Italy.\nAntonin Scalia, who served as an associate justice from 1986 to his death in 2016, earned $60,000 in noninvestment income in 2014. In part, that's because Kavanaugh's confirmation would give the court a decisive conservative majority for a generation.\nHarry Kane says England restored pride during their run to the World Cup semifinals and can use the tournament as a springboard for sustained success for a talented young generation.\nThe case was closed in 2007 after authorities said the suspects had died and the state grand jury didn't file any charges. The men later confessed to killing the boy in a magazine interview but weren't retried, and both men are now dead.\nIn May, Trump said Daniels was paid to stop \"false and extortionist accusations\" she made about a sexual encounter with him. The lawyer also took to Twitter early Thursday morning, calling the arrest a \"a setup & politically motivated\".\nRepublicans Back From Russia Have Advice for Trump Before Putin Summit\nTrump's next stop will be London, where he'll be meeting with Queen Elizabeth II and British Prime Minister Theresa May. The U.S., which spent $685.9 billion on defense in 2017, now makes up 51.1 percent of NATO's combined GDP.\nThe Lakers have prior experience with key players suffering an injury at Summer League, as Lonzo Ball and Josh Hart went down past year .",

        "raw_content": "Madrid Agreement for the Repression of False or Deceptive Indications of Source on Goods\nUnder the Madrid Agreement for the Repression of False or Deceptive Indications of Source on Goods, all goods bearing a false or deceptive indication of source, by which one of the contracting States, or a place situated therein, is directly or indirectly indicated as being the country or place of origin, must be seized on importation, or such importation must be prohibited, or other actions and sanctions must be applied in connection with such importation. The Agreement provides for the cases and the manner in which seizure may be requested and effected. It prohibits the use, in connection with the sale or display or offering for sale of any goods, of all indications in the nature of publicity capable of deceiving the public as to the source of the goods. The Agreement, concluded in 1891, was revised at Washington in 1911, at The Hague in 1925, at London in 1934, at Lisbon in 1958, and at Stockholm in 1967.\nManual Surcharge Fee\nA surcharged fee assessed for any formal entry submitted by an ABI filer who is not certified for Cargo Release processing in at least one port location. The class code is 500.\nManufacturer ID or MID\nManufacturer identification code constructed using specific segments of the manufacturer\u2019s or shipper\u2019s, name and address. Refer to CBP Directive 3500-13 dated November 24, 1986, for instructions on determining the manufacturer ID.\nMaritime Administration (MARAD). The Maritime Administration is the agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation dealing with waterborne transportation. Its programs promote the use of waterborne transportation and its seamless integration with other segments of the transportation system, and the viability of the U.S. merchant marine. The Maritime Administration works in many areas involving ships and shipping, shipbuilding, port operations, vessel operations, national security, environment, and safety.\nMarking: Country of Origin\nThe physical markings on a product that indicate the country of origin where the article was produced. (With very few exceptions, the U.S. requires every imported article to be so marked.)\nMichael T. Schmitz\nmichael.schmitz@dhs.gov\nMarks or Marking\nIdentification placed on the outer surface of shipping containers or packages. At one time it consisted of pictures, letters and numbers. With the advent of computers, pictures are no longer used. Instructions on the packages for their proper handling, such as 'This side up' may also be considered part of the marks. Also the weight and measurements of the packages.\nMaster Air Waybill (MAWB). The air freight consolidator regroups the shipments of several independent shippers that are intended for the same airport of destination and dispatch them together under one Air Waybill (AWB) issued by the carrier. This AWB is named Master Air Waybill (MAWB). A cargo manifest details consignments attached to the MAWB. The air freight consolidator issues to each shipper its own AWB, named in this case a House Air Waybill (HAWB).\nAn informal, voluntary process intended to resolve conflicts, without resorting to arbitration or litigation, by using an impartial third party.\nOffice of Dispute Resolution, U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)\njoanna.jacobs@usdoj.gov\nMET - Mobile Enforcement Team: The DEA Mobile Enforcement Team initiative (MET) is designed as a support service to help state and local police departments combat violent crime and drug trafficking in their communities.\nMost-favoured-nation (MFN): treating other people equally Under the WTO agreements, countries cannot normally discriminate between their trading partners. Grant someone a special favour (such as a lower customs duty rate for one of their products) and you have to do the same for all other WTO members. This principle is known as most-favoured-nation (MFN) treatment (see box). It is so important that it is the first article of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), which governs trade in goods. MFN is also a priority in the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) (Article 2) and the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) (Article 4), although in each agreement the principle is handled slightly differently. Together, those three agreements cover all three main areas of trade handled by the WTO.\nA short and informal title used to refer to the CBP modernization provisions contained in Title VI of the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (Public Law 103-182). The primary purpose of Title VI is to streamline and automated the commercial operations of the CBP. The Title is also intended to improve compliance with CBP laws and provide safeguards, uniformity, and due process rights for importers.\nMerchandise Processing Fee (MPF). Customs user fees were established by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985.This legislation was expanded in 1986 to include a merchandise processing fee. The merchandise processing fee (MPF) is 0.21 percent ad valorem on formally-entered imported merchandise (generally entries valued over $2,000), subject to a minimum fee of $25 per entry and a maximum fee of $485 per entry. On informal entries (those valued at less than $2,000), the MPFs are: $2 for automated entries, $6 for manual entries not prepared by Customs, and $9 for manual entries that are prepared by Customs.\nMRU - Manifest Review Unit: Inspectors assigned to the MRU are responsible for analyzing risk factors by conducting pre-arrival manifest/document reviews of high-risk shipments and reviewing indicators of suspicious shipments. They also conduct intelligence work-ups using various research tools and enforcement databases.\nThe MT-799 is a free format SWIFT message type in which a banking institution confirms that funds are in place to cover a potential trade. This can, on occasion, be used as an irrevocable undertaking, depending on the language used in the MT-799, but is not a promise to pay or any form of bank guarantee in its standard format. The function of the MT-799 is simply to assure the seller that the buyer does have the necessary funds to complete the trade. The MT-799 is usually issued before a contract is signed and before a letter of credit or bank guarantee is issued. After the MT-799 has been received by the seller\u2019s bank, it is then normally the responsibility of the seller\u2019s bank to send a POP (proof of product) to the buyer\u2019s bank, at which point the trade continues towards commencement. The actual payment method commonly used is a documentary letter of credit, which the seller presents to the issuing or confirming bank along with shipping documents. Once the bank confirms the documents, the seller is then paid. An alternative method is to use a bank guarantee in place of a letter of credit. It is normally at the seller\u2019s discretion which method of payment is used.\nMultilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI). (April 1998)\nNegotiations on a multilateral agreement on investment (MAI) were launched by governments at the Annual Meeting of the OECD Council at Ministerial level in May 1995. The proposed objective of the MAI was to provide a broad multilateral framework for international investment with high standards for the liberalisation of investment regimes and investment protection and with effective dispute settlement procedures, open to non-Members. Negotiations were discontinued in April 1998 and will not be resumed.\nOrganization foe Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)\nMushroom Fee\nAn assessment collected on imported fresh mushrooms.

        "raw_content": "Guest post by Ellie Cassowry\nHome \u00bb Destinations \u00bb Guest Blogs \u00bb 5 Reasons to Choose the Gold Coast for a Getaway\nDid you know Josh and I have never been to the Gold Coast. It's one of those things when you live in the country you will go... one day. A little more excited after reading Ellie's post.\nAs summer winds up in 2015, the Gold Coast starts settling down. With the Schoolies crowds long cleared out and the working population back to the daily grind, a late summer getaway to the Queensland coast is just the ticket to start 2015 off with a bang.\nHere are five reasons to book a getaway to the Gold Coast.\n1. Sun, sand and surf\nThere\u2019s a reason it\u2019s called Surfer\u2019s Paradise. Queensland\u2019s premier holiday destination boasts some of Australia\u2019s best beaches, balmy weather all year round and enough wave breaks to keep you busy all summer long.\nWith beautiful beaches from coast to coast, and an urban jungle just beyond the sand, the Gold Coast has everything you could possible need for the ultimate domestic getaway.\nWhether you choose the centrally located Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach Waters and Mermaid Beach, or Miami or Palm Beach to the south, you\u2019ll be guaranteed a great holiday full of sun, sand and surf.\n2. Shopping for miles\nWhen we said the Gold Coast was an urban jungle, we meant it! Shopping in this holiday destination is like nowhere else in the world. With the Paradise Centre \u2013 one of the largest shopping centres in the region \u2013 located right on the corner of Surfers Paradise Boulevard and Cahill Mall.\nThe Paradise Centre boasts a range of shopping outlets, supermarkets, dining and other facilities. And if you\u2019re looking for a shopping experience that feels a little more homemade, the Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets are open every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday nights.\nFurther south, the Broadbeach Art & Crafts Markets are at Kurrawa Park on the first and third Sunday of every month, all year round. Likewise, the Coolangatta Art & Crafts Markets take place at Queen Elizabeth Park on the second Sunday of each month. No matter where you choose to stay on the Gold Coast, there will shopping outlets and bargains to be found everywhere you turn.\n3. Australia\u2019s best theme parks\nIt\u2019s no secret that the Gold Coast is home to the most popular theme parks in Australia. From Sea World, Wet \u2019n\u2019 Wild, Dreamworld and Warner Bros. Movie World, to some of the natural wonders of the Gold Coast, including Tropical Fruit World, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Tamborine Rainforest Skywalk and more.\nExperience the highs and lows of Australia\u2019s best roller coasters, take a splash at Wet \u2018n\u2019 Wild or take a look at the native Australian wildlife hiding further inland. You can make a day, a week or a month of it.\nWhen you\u2019re planning a summer getaway, short or long, finding the right luxury accommodation is a must-have.\nOur recommendation would be the InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort. A favourite for Gold Coast holiday accommodation. It's located 25 kilometres north of the Gold Coast, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.\nIt's 5 star accommodation with a range of luxurious resort facilities. You\u2019ll find everything you need \u2013 and more.\nIf you are hoping to stay in other parts of the Gold Coast during your stay I can recommend a few others, just leave me a comment!\n5. Events like no others\nThe Gold Coast is home to an active and varied events scene, with a special focus on the great outdoors, competitive sports and food and wine.\nIn 2015, the Gold Coast Food and Wine Expo, Scoot Burleigh Pro and Sand Safari \u2013 Australian Sand Sculpting Championships are just a few of the events wrapping up in summer.\nEllie Cassowry lives and works in Queensland. The beach is her second home. She is an inspiring writer and does most of it oceanside whenever the weather is clear. Which is often.",

        "raw_content": "Coast to Coast American Adventure tour - Cross the States from \u00a31,999 per person!\nThe ultimate adventure in North America is to travel from one side of the United States to the other ... East to West or other way round, on foot, by bike or more commonly with an escorted tour. There are lots of variations on the route, whether it's New York or Boston one side, Los Angeles or San Francisco the other ... but one thing is for sure in between you will have the most amazing time of your life!\nStroll the hills of San Francisco, look for wildlife in Yosemite, party in Las Vegas and New Orleans, marvel at the Grand Canyon, relive history in Washington DC, gaze at the New York City skyline. Get out on the road and follow in the footsteps of Jack Kerouac to discover the real America. This ultimate coast-to-coast road trip connects you and your small group of fellow travellers to the iconic cities, natural wonders, national parks and monuments that make this land great. Learn about Navajo culture in the Southwest and what the odds are in Las Vegas. Whether it\u2019s comfortable hotels in the cities or campsites in national parks, you\u2019ll always be close to the action. So slide on your cowboy boots in Texas and your dancing shoes in Nashville and Memphis\u2014it\u2019s time to embrace the spirit of this land by hitting the open road.\nCoast to Coast (New York - San Francisco)\nThis is a small group adventure holiday, which operates in both directions over 23 days, but not in the middle of winter. Starting from San Francisco you can travel as early as April but the westbound tour doesn't start until May. This is a fabulous value for money tour and the group size is usually around 10 people, maximum 22. Look for aliens in Roswell, wildlife in Yosemite, feel the heat in Death Valley, gamble and party in Las Vegas and New Orleans, wonder at the Grand Canyon and the amazing cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde, learn about the living history of Philadephia and Washington DC. Plenty of camping and hiking and a few nights in hotels.\nSummary Itinerary (eastbound)\nSan Francisco - Yosemite National Park - Bishop - Tioga Pass - Death Valley - Las Vegas - Grand Canyon - Monument Valley - Durango and Mesa Verde - Santa Fe - Carlsbad Caverns - San Antonio - Texas - Lafayette - New Orleans - Mississippi - Memphis & Nashville Tennessee (Elvis Graceland and cowboy bars) - Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Mountains - Shenandoah National Park - Washington DC - Philadelphia - New York.\nTrailblazer tour 9 weeks loop (New York - New York)\nIf you have the time, this is the ultimate USA adventure! 9 weeks (64 days) takes you all around the edge of the States and across the middle. Highlights include Niagara Falls, evening illuminations on the Washington DC monuments, New Orleans Bourbon Street, San Antonio Riverwalk, Alien spotting in Rosell, Walk the Golden Gate Bridge, Scenic walks and hikes, City tours in Las Vegas, Hollywood and San Francisco, sight seeing in Charleston, St Augustine, Miami, Florida Keys, Santa Fe, San Diego, Seattle, Vancouver and Chicago, walking amongst giant Sequoia trees, parks and monuments including Carlsbad Caverns, Mesa Verde, Arches, Monument Valley, Grand Canyon, Bryce, Zion, Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Yellowstone, Glacier, Banff and Lake Louise, Redwood and Yosemite. This trip is mainly camping so you have to be up for an adventure! It loops right around America in a stretched rectangle down the east coast, across the middle, up the west and across the rocky mountains back to New York - an incredible exploration of America!\nSelf drive holidays in the States are always popular but you need at least three weeks to do the coast to coast road trip. There are a few group trips, either escorted coach tours with hotels along the way or more adventurous small groups which involve camping - a fabulous way to explore America, especially in the parks! We use several tour companies for this Coast to Coast trip (and it won't cost you any more to book with us, but we can search for the right departure for you, add in flights and any additional hotels or arrangements you need). Route 66 is a popular self drive holiday in America, but many of these group trips incorporate the best bits (in our opinion!), in the west of the States including Monument Valley, Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon. You can add on time in California if you like but most of these coast to coast tours incorporate most of the main sights of this wonderful state in them.\nIf you want to travel by train, there are lots of options for traversing America and Canada by Rail. There are many more variations of coast to coast group trips and adventures in the United States. If you would like to tailor make any of these for either a private trip or a special interest group please get in touch and we can personalise an itinerary to suit your requirements. And remember, if you are looking for a group trip to America, we have a host of suppliers who we know very well and can search out the best holiday to suit your requirements! So what are you waiting for? Get in touch and set off to explore the mighty highways and spectacular sights of the good ole U S of A!!\nThe Deep South - Fly Drive",

The track is featured on his Luv Is Rage 2 album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. In the DAPS-directed music video, Nicki is preoccupied sharpening a huge knife while cooped up in a cabin in the woods. Obviously, she looks super fly in an army green romper, thigh high boots, and a chunky Chanel chain. However, Lil Uzi Vert is stuck tied up on a tree and things don't seem to get better when another woman enters the scene.\nA few days ago, Nicki posted a photo with Lil Uzi Vert behind-the-scenes on Instagram to promote the accompanying visual.

While browsing articles on the American Atheist website I discovered what appears to be a serious case of plagiarism.\nThe following article purports to have been written by one \"Edward Kagin,\" who is a lawyer and member of American Atheists' Board of Directors, serving as National Legal Director.\nThe comparisons to the original are provided below the quote in blue. As we can see, it's a virtual lift from Acharya's book The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold (1999). \"\nThere is something very disturbing about this.\nRe: American Atheist Plagiarizes Acharya's Work?\nAcharya did do some fantastic research and write some fantastic articles. I've read many of them. She is very good at demonstrating the many, many correlations between the Christian God, and the many of God's around the same time and before. Kind of puts it in a proper perspective.\nBummer about the plagiarism though. It's kind of simple - if you didn't write it, don't take credit for it. It's not like you can't use it - you just have to say where you got it from.\nI agree with you. It is a bummer because after reading through that thread at Acharya's forum all they were asking for was proper citation. They didn't want the article taken down. in fact, they were offering to work WITH the AA. They were hoping that they would post Acharya's mythicist position. Rather than provide the proper source, they removed the article completely; proving the point in that thread.\n* I posted a thread here on her mythicist position here\nhttp://truth-saves.forumotion.com/your-religious-views-f6/the-mythicist-position-t52.htm\nLast edited by Thor22 on Mon Nov 08, 2010 4:49 pm; edited 1 time in total (Reason for editing : added mythicist position link)",

        "raw_content": "Frank Ware is a young novelist in the New York of 1909 who is gaining a reputation for writing about the city\u2019s underclass. When word gets out that Frank is a woman, the general assumption is that she must be getting help from a man. Frank laughs off that slight, but the sexism she will face later is much more personal, forcing her to choose between her long-held beliefs and love in A Man\u2019s World, the engaging revival of Rachel Crothers\u2019s 1910 drama directed by Michael Hardart at the Metropolitan Playhouse.\nLiving in a Greenwich Village walkup with Kiddie (Michael Fader), a 7-year-old boy she has adopted, Frank (Kathleen Dobbs) is independent and upbeat, and quite sure of her place in the world. The equality of women is a given to her.\n\u201cI\u2019m a natural woman -- because I\u2019m a free one,\u201d she says, explaining that her father had told her stories and taken her everywhere with him to give her a broad education. \u201cI began to balance men and women very early -- and the more I knew -- the more I tho\u2019t the women had the worst of it.\u201d\nAn assortment of artistic friends and neighbors make themselves at home in her apartment and she seems content with her life, which besides writing also includes working with disadvantaged women. When Frank is not around, the friends speculate about Kiddie\u2019s parentage, most assuming that he is her child.\nThe issue is forced when Frank falls in love with Malcolm Gaskell (Kelly Dean Cooper) who loves her too and wants to marry her, provided Kiddie isn\u2019t hers. A woman with an illegitimate child is completely unacceptable to him.\nA miniature portrait of Kiddie that a neighbor, Clara (Kendall Rileigh), has painted exposes the hypocrisy of his stance. As the friends study it, they become convinced they see a resemblance to Malcolm. Frank learns of their suspicions and confronts Malcolm, who is shocked at the idea, but doesn\u2019t see a man with an illegitimate child as any kind of obstacle in a relationship.\n\u201cA man wants the mother of his children to be the purest woman in the world,\u201d he says.\nFrank understands all too well.\n\u201cYes, and a man expects the purest woman in the world to forgive him anything -- everything,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s wrong. It\u2019s hideously wrong.\u201d\nIt is wrong, but women still live with inequality, mostly now it terms of income, so the play doesn\u2019t feel dated. The assumptions Frank challenges are still out there and it in many ways it continues to be a man\u2019s world.\nCrothers (1878-1958) didn\u2019t live to see this sexual double standard overturned. Interestingly, she wrote A Man\u2019s World early in her career, one of the 23 plays she would pen. I was happy to discover her at the Mint Theater, first with Susan and God in 2006 and then with A Little Journey in 2011. I like her courageous female characters who struggle to live life on their own terms.\nMetropolitan Playhouse has done an splendid job of giving this work new life. All parts of the production come together well. I especially liked Dobbs\u2019s portrayal of Frank as strong, intelligent and extremely likable. And artistic director Alex Roe has created sets that are part Victorian, part bohemian and fit just right in the limited space the theatre has for a stage.\nThe production runs through Oct. 13.

        "raw_content": "Participants at the 2/22/17 round table on strengthening European security after Munich \u2013 Creator: HBS North America. This image is licensed under Creative Commons License.\nPresident Trump\u2019s apparent aversions towards international organizations like NATO and the European Union have led to concerns in Europe and the U.S. about the future of transatlantic relations and European security. Expectations were therefore high that the annual Munich Security Conference would bring some clarity of the new U.S. administration\u2019s policies towards Europe. To discuss the key issues that were debated during the conference, the Heinrich B\u00f6ll Foundation North America organized an informal roundtable discussion with policy experts from Washington, DC and Brussels. Panelists included Dr. Niklas Helwig (SAIS Center for Transatlantic Relations), Prof. Dr. Susan Penksa (Westmont College), Mr. Jeffrey Lightfoot (Atlantic Council), and Prof. Dr. Joachim Koops (Vesalius College and Global Governance Institute).\nAfter Donald Trump\u2019s previous critical remarks on NATO and the EU, European observers were eager to hear from Vice-President Mike Pence and Defense Secretary James Mattis at the Munich Security Conference. Although both reassured European partners of the U.S.\u2019 commitment to NATO, many observers wondered if this position was coordinated with President Trump, who has the final authority over U.S. foreign policy. Many observers were not surprised by the promise by European NATO members to increase their budgets to reach the agreed target of spending 2% of the gross domestic product on defense. Nevertheless, it would be misleading to assert that these developments are solely linked to pressure from the new administration. As one panelist pointed out, several European countries had already decided to increase their defense budget before Donald Trump was elected to office. The real turning point was the intervention in Libya in 2011, which had exposed the lack of European military capabilities. Since then, in an effort to achieve \u201cstrategic autonomy\u201d, many European states have increasingly looked to the EU rather than NATO to address European security issues. But the EU\u2019s efforts in the framework of its Common Foreign and Security Policy are not in competition to NATO activities. As another panelist argued, interaction and cooperation between NATO and EU officials is much closer today than it was some years ago.\nSeveral roundtable participants cast doubt on whether or not all European NATO members will be able and willing to meet the 2% defense spending target. The new German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel already undermined the position of Chancellor Angela Merkel and his German coalition partners by raising concerns about a rapid defense boost, arguing that German spending on the integration of refugees since 2015 already contributed to the prevention of further crises in Europe\u2019s neighborhood. Some of the panelists also argued that progress to modernize European military capabilities and to better coordinate the procurement of defense equipment is more important than higher defense budgets.\nThe Trump administration\u2019s insistence that NATO should increase its investments in counterterrorism efforts could lead to severe disagreements between the U.S. administration and the European allies in the next years. But at the moment, nobody knows what exactly the Trump administration will demand from the European allies. Because U.S. commitment to NATO and European security was the most prominent point of discussion, panelists pointed out that topics like Russia\u2019s violation of the INF Treaty, the situation in Syria, or the crisis in Ukraine did not get much attention.",

        "title": "Obama Still Backs Job-Destroying Global-Warming Agenda by Sen. Inhofe at US Action News",
        "raw_content": "Sen. James Inhofe 1/27/2010 via Human Events\nPresident Obama\u2019s health care bill is on life support, and his destructive cap-and-trade energy tax proposal on Capitol Hill is also all but dead.\nOf course, this is no surprise to those who follow the politics of cap-and-trade. The great public backlash against this tax on electricity, gasoline and just about everything else reached the boiling point last August, when constituents at town hall meetings denounced it as a big-government scheme that they couldn\u2019t afford.\n?Many in Congress got the message. After the House passed the disastrous 1,400-page Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade bill in the dead of night last summer, those who supported it quickly sensed the public outrage against the bill. In fact, if it were voted on today, Waxman-Markey couldn\u2019t pass the House because so many one-time supporters have recanted their votes.\nTake, for example, Rep. Rick Boucher (D.-Va.), who helped rally support for Waxman-Markey from moderate Democrats, and whose Southwestern Virginia district is heavily reliant on coal. Boucher\u2019s local paper, the Kingsport Times News, reported in August that he \u201cvoted for cap-and-trade legislation but said he doesn\u2019t endorse the House-passed version of the bill.\u201d Boucher explained his \u201cI-voted-for-it-before-I-voted-against-it\u201d stance this way: \u201cI voted for it because I had to do that to be part of the process and to make the changes that have been made.\u201d\nIndia-China Problem\nRep. Mark Kirk (R.-Ill.), a GOP candidate for Senate in Illinois, was similarly Janus-faced when he said, \u201cLet me say briefly about cap and trade: I voted for it because it was in the narrow interest of my congressional district. As your representative, representing the entire state of Illinois, I would vote no on that bill coming up.\u201d\nThis turnabout on cap-and-trade grew stronger in the weeks leading up to the U.N.\u2019s international global-warming conference in Copenhagen, Denmark, last December. It became clear that cap-and-trade was going nowhere in the Senate \u2014 a message I helped personally deliver in Copenhagen, much to the dismay of UN elites. Yet despite this brute fact, those elites still believed President Obama would persuade the Senate to support cap-and-trade and then would bridge the gaping divides preventing agreement on a global-warming treaty. But that didn\u2019t occur: China and India, the world\u2019s leading emitters of CO2, along with other developing countries, continued to oppose mandatory cuts in emissions.\nGetting China and India to accept mandatory reductions on par with those from America is the sine qua non of any global-warming treaty. Without it, the U.S. Senate will do what it did in 1997, which was vote 95 to 0 against the Kyoto global-warming treaty, which left out China and India. Yet in the face of this position, the Obama administration hinted it might commit the U.S. to a legally binding treaty without Senate ratification. President Obama was then sternly rebuked by Sen. Jim Webb (D.-Va.), who wrote in a letter to Obama, \u201cAlthough details have not been made available, recent statements \u2026 indicate that negotiators may be intending to commit the United States to a nationwide emission-reduction program. As you well know from your time in the Senate, only specific legislation agreed upon in the Congress, or a treaty ratified by the Senate, could actually create such a commitment on behalf of our country.\u201d\nAfter last week\u2019s upset victory by Scott Brown in Massachusetts, Republicans now have 41 seats in the Senate. This means many things, but one thing is clear: President Obama\u2019s cap-and-trade plans are history.\nLess than 24 hours after Brown\u2019s victory, Sen. Diane Feinstein (D.-Calif.) joined many of her fellow Democrats (Rockefeller, Landrieu, Nelson, to name a few) by publicly declaring cap-and-trade dead for the year. As she noted last week, \u201cI think it\u2019s clear from the hiatus that a large cap-and-trade bill isn\u2019t going to go ahead at this time.\u201d And earlier this month, Rep. Collin Peterson (D.-Minn.), chairman of the House Agriculture Committee, said cap-and-trade \u201cisn\u2019t going anyplace in the Senate\u201d (for good measure he added that would switch his voted to \u201cno\u201d if the House voted on Waxman-Markey, or anything like it, again).\nBlocking EPA Madness\nSo now all eyes turn to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which President Obama hopes to use to implement his global-warming agenda notwithstanding bipartisan congressional opposition. In December, just prior to the Copenhagen conference, EPA declared that, under the Clean Air Act, greenhouse gases (including CO2) from motor vehicles are \u201cendangering public health and welfare,\u201d thus requiring regulation. The finding per se \u2014 based on hopelessly flawed science \u2014 is bad enough, yet what\u2019s worse is that it will lead to a regulatory dragnet covering every corner of the economy, including schools, farms, hospitals, nursing homes and commercial buildings.\nSen. Lisa Murkowski (R.-Alaska) has introduced a \u201cresolution of disapproval\u201d that, if passed by the House and Senate, and signed by the President, would overturn the \u201cendangerment finding\u201d and stop EPA\u2019s regulatory madness. This resolution, made pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, cannot be filibustered, which means it only needs only 51, rather than 60, votes for passage. Of course President Obama won\u2019t sign if it reaches his desk, but that would make clear that EPA\u2019s regulatory juggernaut is all his own.\nSo the question remains: Will President Obama continue to ignore the vast majority of Americans who want Washington to focus on jobs and the economy, or will he press ahead with his radical global-warming agenda that will destroy jobs and hobble the economy? Only time will tell, but with unemployment at 10%, time is running out, for this decision could determine the fate of his presidency.\nMr. Inhofe, a Republican, is ranking member of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.",

Women are more vulnerable due to two factors:\nWomen in general have less bone mass than men\nThe annual loss of bone mass in women accelerates after menopause.\nVitamin K2, particularly in the menaquinone-7 (MK-7) form, has been shown to help the body to optimally use calcium by binding it to bones, keeping them dense and strong, and lessening risk of fracture throughout aging.\nHow is Bone Affected by K2?\nBone is comprised of a hard outer shell and spongy inner tissue matrix, which is a living substance, and the entire skeleton is replaced approximately every 7 years. This process is regulated by osteoblasts (cells that build up the skeleton) and osteoclasts (cells that break down the skeleton). As long as the bone-forming activity (absorption) is greater than the bone-breakdown (resorption), the process of maintaining healthy bones is kept under control.\nOsteoblasts produce a vitamin K2-dependent protein called osteocalcin, which helps bind calcium in the bone matrix, leading to increased bone mineral content. Consequently, the skeleton becomes more resistant and less susceptible to fracture. But osteocalcin needs vitamin K2 to function optimally.\nIn the case of long-term vitamin K2 deficiency, osteoclasts will remove more bone tissue than osteoblasts can build. This will result in a slow and steady loss of bone tissue, eventually leading to porosity, degradation, and weakness of the bones, which could lead to increased risk of fracture.\nStudies Show Vitamin K2 Maintains Bone Health\nBecause natto (the traditional Japanese dish made of fermented soybeans) is the most abundant source of vitamin K2 as menaquinone-7 (MK-7), population-based studies have shown that in those regions in Japan where women consumed the most natto, the women generally have shown low rates of fractures. More observational studies suggest that natto may dramatically reduce risk of developing osteoporosis. Until 2012, there had only been 2, 1-year studies of K2 as MK-7 and bone status in healthy elderly. In these, the MK-7 significantly improved the \u201cswitching on\u201d of osteocalcin to get to work (also called OC carboxylation).\nBased on these studies, a 3-year study of a vitamin K2 as MK-7 ingredient on 244 women showed for the first time clinically statistically significant protection of the vertebrae and the hip (femoral neck) against osteoporosis. This was achieved with only 180 mcg daily of vitamin K2, which is considered a \u201cnutritional dose,\u201d meaning it is much more easily obtainable through supplementation and the right diet than pharmaceutical doses used in previous studies. The K2 group showed significantly increased circulating active osteocalcin (cOC), a well-established biomarker for bone and vitamin K status. Additionally, the inactive protein, ucOC, in the supplement group decreased with 51% +/- 21 % as compared to the placebo group (+4 % +/- 49%).\nAfter 3 years of supplementation, improvements in both bone mineral content and bone mineral density were statistically significant in the vitamin K2 group. Further, bone strength was statistically improved, demonstrating therapeutic benefits for the K2 group as compared to the placebo group. This study appears in the January 2013 issue of Osteoporosis International, validating the credibility of the research findings.\nKaneki et al.

        "raw_content": "yk @ umn.edu\nI grew up in Tokyo, Japan, where I received my PhD. After my degree, I moved to Ithaca, NY, for my post doctoral studies of \"bottom\" quarks. It was meant to be a three year stint in a foreign country to experience something different before I settled into Japanese society for the rest of my life. But life brings surprises. I ended up finding my wife, and established a family in the US.\nEven though we were in love with the culture of Ithaca, NY, when I found an opportunity to start a teaching career in Minneapolis, which was described to us by one of our friends as \"a big Ithaca,\" we jumped on it.\nHere, I continued to study bottom quarks and also \"charm\" quark until 2005. When a chance to switch my focus to high-energy frontier was presented, I decided to take advantage of it.\nWith CMS, I have worked on calibration of calorimeter, production of faster data collection electronics, and various physics analysis involving searches of exotic particles that \"physics theories beyond the current standard theory\" predict to exist but not found.\nWhen I started teaching at Minnesota, I knew nothing about class room culture of the US, but since then, the University has provided me with opportunities to learn about how to be a better teacher in American classrooms. My wife, Susan, is an excellent teacher, though not in physics, and artist, and has given me a lot of great ideas about teaching. This has been a rewarding learning experience, and I hope to grow further as a teacher as well as as a mentor to graduate students.\nHere are a list of my current and former graduate students.\n* Sergey Guts, PhD. Started his serious involvement in CMS in 2017. Studying the production of the Z (Pt spectrum).\n* Mark Lattery, PhD. finished July 1996. Professor at U. of Wisconsin, Oshkosh.\n* Vladimir Savinov, PhD. finished December 1996. Associate professor at Pittsburgh.\n* Rupak Mahapatra, PhD. finished in December 2000, Assistant professor at Texas A&M.\n* Sang-Joon Lee, PhD. Finished in September 2001, Research Associate at Rice.\n* Brian Lang, PhD. Finished in December 2006, Staff Scientist, Arete Associates, VA.\n* Seth Cooper, PhD. Finished in July 2013, Research Associate at Alabama.\n* Norbert Tambe, PhD. Finished in Dec 2015, Sr Software Engineer at Ecolab - embedded systems(Controllers, Sensors and devices) for Automation\n* Jared Turkewitz, PhD. Finished in Sept 2016.

Review of Babar Construction Project, 1995-97.\nI am interested in finding clues to the future theory of particles which will extend our current understanding. So far from three years of data collection (2010-2012) and analysis, evidence for neither SUSY nor extra dimension has been found. [Research Web Page]\nCosmic muon through CMS\nEnergy Frontier: CMS\nIn 2005, I changed the focus of my research into the high-energy frontier, which allows us to investigate smallest-scale phenomena. At this scale, some of the symmetries which have been hidden at the larger scale observation are believed to be revealed. In addition, over the last decade, some physicists are speculating, in their effort to solve theoretical inconsistencies in the current theories, that there may be more than 3 spatial dimensions. And evidence for such speculation may be gleaned in the current research. Currently (2013) the experiment has collected significant amount of data (2010-2012), and their analyses have revealed that a Higgs particle exists, and it exhibits properties which are consistent with the Higgs boson predicted by the so-called Standard Model of our field. We are, however, hoping that we will find small difference between the predicted and observed Higgs when the properties are precisely measured, and they show us which of the deeper theories are valid. Read more about my students' research above.\nHeavy Quark and symmetry breaking\nUntil 2005, I worked on physics of \"heavy flavor,\" studying properties of \"bottom\" and \"charm\" quarks. They give rise to systems similar to hydrogen atom, but consisting of quarks instead of a proton and an electron. In hydrogen atom, the proton and the electron are bound to each other by electric force, but in the heavy quark system, they are bound by the so-called strong force or nuclear force which binds protons and neutrons in nuclei. As a result, my research was useful to study how the strong force behaves.\nCMS Collaboration, Searches for long-lived charged particles in pp collisions at \u221as =7 and 8 TeV, JHEP 07 (2013) 122 [abstract]\nCMS Collaboration, Search for heavy long-lived charged particles in pp collisions at SQRT(s) = 7 TeV, Phys.

        "title": "The Wisdom of Ganesh: What's Wrong With Vendor Lock-In?",
        "raw_content": "A colleague asked me this question today, and I'm really glad it came out in the open, because it's so much easier to deal with ideas when they're plainly stated.\nI believe there are at least two strong reasons to actively avoid vendor lock-in.\nThe first reason, paradoxically, lies in the very justification for agreeing to be locked in - \"ease of integration\". If an organisation already has a product from a certain vendor and is looking for another product that needs to integrate with this one, then conventional thinking is to go back to the same vendor and buy their offering rather than a competitor's. After all, they're far more likely to be \"well integrated\". There are typically so many problems integrating products from different vendors that it doesn't seem worth the effort. The best-of-breed approach leads to integration problems, so customer organisations often throw in the towel and go for an \"integrated stack\" of products from one company.\nThis approach is antithetical to SOA thinking, however. What they're really saying here is that they don't mind implicit contracts between systems as long as they work. But implicit contracts are a form of tight coupling, and as we know, tight coupling is brittle. Upgrade one product and you'll very likely need to upgrade the other as well. In production systems, we have seen product upgrades delayed for years because the implicit dependencies between \"well-integrated\" components could cause some of them to break on an upgrade, which is unacceptable in mission-critical systems. As a result, many useful features of later versions are forfeited. That's one of the unseen, downstream costs of the tight coupling that comes from vendor lock-in.\nSOA shows us the solution. For robust integration between systems, we need loose coupling between them, which seems a bit paradoxical. Shouldn't tight coupling be more robust? Hard experience has taught us otherwise. But what is loose coupling? It's a hard concept to visualise, so let's define it in terms of tight coupling, which is easier to understand. In practical terms, loose coupling between two systems can be thought of as tight coupling to a mutually agreed, rigid contract rather than to each other. Such contracts are very often nothing more than open standards.\nEven though people generally nod their heads when asked about their preference for open standards, the contradiction between that stated preference and their practical choices in favour of \"integrated stacks\" is hard to understand. If pressed, they might say that creating contracts external to both systems and insisting on adherence to them seems like a waste of time. Why not something that just works \"out of the box\"? The answer is that this is not an either-or choice. A browser and a web server work together \"out of the box\", but they do so not because they come from the same company but because they both adhere to the same rigid contract, which is the set of IETF and W3C standards (HTTP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript).\nThe key is to hold vendors' feet to the fire on adherence to open standards. This isn't that hard. With Open Source products available in the market to keep vendors honest, customers have only themselves to blame if they let themselves get locked in.\nThe second reason why vendor lock-in is a bad idea is because it often implies vendor lock-out. Very often, customers are held hostage to the politics of vendor competition. Once you start buying into a particular vendor's stack, it will become increasingly hard to look elsewhere. Any third-party component you procure will be less likely to play well with the ones you already have, causing you more integration headaches. My favourite example from just a few years ago is Oracle Portal Server, which claimed to support authentication against LDAP. It turned out later that it wasn't just any LDAP server but just Oracle's own OID. This meant that the corporate directory server which happened to be IBM Tivoli LDAP couldn't be used. The data in it had to be painfully replicated to OID to allow Oracle Portal Server to work.\nMy solution to incipient vendor lock-in would be to aggressively seek standard interfaces even between products from the same company. I remember asking an IBM rep why they weren't enabling SMTP, IMAP and vCalendar as the mail protocols between Notes client and server. The rep sneered at me as if I was mad. Why would you use these protocols, he wanted to know, when Notes client and server are so \"tightly integrated\"? Others on my side of the fence agreed with him. Well, the answer came back to bite the company many years later, when they wanted to migrate to Outlook on the client side. Their \"tight integration\" had resulted in vendor lock-out, preventing them from connecting to Notes server using Outlook (which standard protocols would have allowed) and they were stuck with Notes client indefinitely. By that time, there were too many other dependencies that had been allowed to work their way in, so enabling open protocols at that stage was no longer an option. That was a great outcome for IBM, of course, but to this day, there are people in the customer organisation who don't see that what happened to them was a direct consequence of their neglect of open interfaces in favour of closed, \"tight\" integration.\nUltimately, vendor lock-in has implications of cost, time and effort, which basically boils down to cost, cost and cost.\nAs users of technology, we simply cannot afford it.\nLabels: Open Standards, vendor lock-in\nYou make a couple of very good points! But there is a risk to taking your stance: to be perceived as the guy with an academically sound philosophy that doesn't cut it in the real world.\nI fear that A LOT of people think \"Going with Microsoft\" or \"Going with Oracle\" etc. is a sound strategy, and they can point to a lot of examples of why that is so.\nMy point is, we need more examples. Not just generic vendor lock-in stories but specifically how going with a suite of products actually turned out worse than going best of breed.\nAlso, examples of people that have gone the best-of-breed route, that admit that route had its challenges but that they conquered them.\nWithout the power of good examples, the risk is people agree with you in principle but won't dare to deviate from their former practice of choosing what's safe.\nYou know, the \"no one got fired for choosing IBM/Microsoft/..\" strategy has something that people need: a feeling of comfort.\nMy other question is, how do you address the downside of going best of breed? For instance what happens when you've chosen best of breed products to play together, and you encounter problems and the different vendors start blaming each other? The comfort of being able to pressure a single vendor isn't there.\nThere is more to this story and I hope to see you continue this.\nGood point you got here!\nHere is the point I get:\nGoing \"best of breed\" is very difficult because consumers allow themselves to be manipulated into choosing stacked products. In other words, there are very few examples of \"best of breed\" working better, because most people allow themselves to be forced into bad decisions.\nThe point I am getting from the article is that this vendor lock-in problem is our own fault and it is causing problems. The only way to fix it is to either quit using proprietary software entirely, or to start demanding open standards from proprietary software (as in, refuse to use proprietary software that does not adhere to the open standards you are choosing to use). The point is that we have let the software \"industry\" become corrupt, and fixing it is going to cost us. Of course, we do not have to fix it, but if we do not then the total cost will be much more than if we do.\nSo, while you are right that a lot of people think \"Going with MS\", or such, sounds good, they are wrong. We do not need more examples, we need action, otherwise we will end up with a bunch of different factions using specific proprietary standards, who will not even be able to communicate effectively, and eventually we will incur costs that are too large to handle. And, ironically, it will be our own darn fault, because we decided to go with what seemed easiest at the time, without measuring the long term costs. (Imagine two groups that speak different languages, and have no means of translation or of learning each others' languages. The consequences would probably be war.)\nMy point is that we have seen the problems caused by vendor lock-in. If we think we need examples to show that \"best of breed\" is better, then we are stupid. When one thing is a problem, we should try other things until we either find something that works, or run out of alternatives. Since the \"best of breed\" approach is an alternative, and it has not been tried enough to establish whether it is better or not, we would be stupid not to try it, since the current method obviously does not work well. If we all just sit on our butts waiting for someone else to try things, we will all end up failing together. We need people who will get off their butts and make examples, so we can see if the one really is better than the other. So quit whining that there are no examples, and either try it yourself, or convince someone else with the resources to try it. This is what the author is trying to do: convince those with the resources to try it.\nLord Rybec\nTechnology Guy said...\nSo as a CIO, I should be more concerned with whether a product is going to be \"loosely coupled\" than whether it will fulfill the needs of my business?\nOr I should do as you say an \"demand\" that everything I look at provide some kind of \"open standard\" interface instead of providing a complete integration with my other systems, provide a competitive advantage to my business, and allow me to continue running a business? Or I should just say ph*q it and not bother with buying software at all?\nOr I should go open-source and hire a bunch of programmers to make it work properly?\nYeah.. sounds like a really good idea. Don't call me, I'll call you.. and all that.\nTechnology Guy,\nWhoa! You make it sound like my recommendation was for a theoretical ideal that has no practical benefit:\n\"Or I should do as you say an \"demand\" that everything I look at provide some kind of \"open standard\" interface instead of providing a complete integration with my other systems, provide a competitive advantage to my business, and allow me to continue running a business? Or I should just say ph*q it and not bother with buying software at all?\"\nA lot of strawman arguments there.\nKeeping interfaces open and systems loosely coupled is not an academic recommendation. That is in fact the proven and most cost-effective way to \"provide a complete integration with my other systems, provide a competitive advantage to my business, and allow me to continue running a business\".\nIf you disagree with that, I can deduce that your current approach is vendor-specific and high-cost, like most of your peers. You've standardised mediocrity (Industry Best Practice!) and are now trying to elevate it to the virtue of \"pragmatism\". I've heard these arguments a hundred times before, which is why I wrote this post in the first place.\nCheck out the principles of SOA once again (and no, I don't mean SOA vendor products but SOA principles).",

        "title": "Witchcraft Journal Blog: Ancient Roman Religion",
        "raw_content": "This comes fom Paganism; Past & Present, an interesting site.\nPagan religions believed in many gods and generally worshipped the earth, sea, sun, sky and various other elements of nature. The Romans were polytheistic and much of their lives were spent in a fervent effort to please their gods. This was because ancient Romans believed that their gods had great influence over their daily lives and fates. In order to placate the gods, the Romans believed that certain rituals and rites must be performed in appreciation of the gods works. As the religion progressed, so too did the rituals, this made it necessary to form priesthood\u2019s with specific rituals and traditions. In keeping with the Pagan tradition the Romans had a deep respect for the earth and her cycles. The ancient Roman religion is one of the better known pagan religions.\nEarly Roman religion was based on spirits. The Romans did not build great mythologies like the Greeks, rather they believed everything had a spirit. These spirits were thought to influence for good or evil, daily life. The Romans therefore had to keep them happy through worship and sacrifice. If the rituals and sacrifices were performed properly the Romans believed the gods would be happy and help them.\nRomans believed each God had a specific \"field\" of expertise. There was a god of the sun, Apollo, a god of the sea, a god of the sky and many others. As Roman life had many different aspects there were many different Gods. If a Roman wanted a good crop he would pray to Ceres, the goddess of agriculture. The most important of all the spirits was Vesta the goddess of the hearth and home and the center of Roman family life. Each household had a small shrine dedicated to the household spirits. The Romans were great copiers. They borrowed many of their gods from the Greeks, but unlike Greek gods, theirs did not have the same definitely conceived personality, they were more cold and formal. The Romans lived under the gods and constantly tried to please them.\nThe Romans has a well defined state pantheon of gods. These were the official gods led by Jupiter, the father of the gods. Others included;\nMars; god of war, Ceres; Goddess of agriculture, Diana; moon goddess, Juno; goddess of women and childbirth, Minerva; goddess of wisdom and healing in war\nThe Roman religion was based on rituals and sacred rites. These rituals had become very complex over the years and needed special people to perform them. This is where the priests came in. The chief priesthood\u2019s were usually filled by distinguished statesmen or generals. Roman religion and politics were intermeshed. There were two types of priests;\n\u00b7 priests for the general supervision of religion\n\u00b7 priests of particular deities\nAs the Roman empire expanded it came into contact with new and different religions. Many were absorbed into the state religion. Religious tolerance was a policy among the emperors. They introduced a policy of syncretism designed to encourage the merging of pagan religions to unite people and effect greater political stability. This cemented and united the empire. So it came to pass that Romans could worship whoever they liked as long as it didn\u2019t interfere with others.\nThe ancient Roman religion is one of the most well known pagan religions. It was worshipped not only by the Romans, but by the various communities which were absorbed into the Roman empire. These communities added to the state religion with their own specific beliefs until it was a truly diverse and all encompassing religion. Throughout the modern world, the ancient roman religion is known as one of the world\u2019s first and most famous pagan religions. It is the Roman and the Greek religions which are the basic from modern pagans take their beliefs.\ntechnorati tags:romanreligion, paganism, rome",

        "title": "Is Network Marketing Just a Scam? - woo at aim global",
        "raw_content": "Is Network Marketing Just a Scam?\nQ: Some of my friends I'm trying to recruit into network marketing deals that seem like some type of money game or pyramid. Other friends tell me they're illegal and I'll get into trouble. How do I know what's legal and legitimate?\nA: To help you understand what network marketing is, I must first explain what it isn't. First, network marketing isn't a pyramid scheme. Pyramids are programs similar to chain letters where people just invest money based on the promise that other people will put in money that will filtrate back to them and somehow, they'll get rich. A pyramid is strictly a money game and has no basis in real commerce. Normally, there's no product involved at all, just money changing hands. Modern-day pyramids may have a product, but it's clearly there just to disguise the money game.\nThere's a huge difference between network marketing and pyramid schemes. Learn the truth here.\nNetwork marketing is a legitimate business. First, it's based on providing people with real, legitimate products they need and want at a fair price. While some people do make a lot of money through network marketing, their financial benefit is always the result of their own dedicated efforts in building an organization that sells real products and services.\nPyramids are illegal and are based on taking advantage of people. For a person to actually make money in a pyramid scheme, someone else has to lose money. But in network marketing, each person can multiply his or her efforts, skills and talents by helping others be successful. Network marketing has proved itself as part of the new economy and a preferred way to do business here and around the world.\nNetwork marketing isn't about taking advantage of your friends and relatives. Only a few years ago, network marketing meant retailing to, and sponsoring people from, your \"warm list\" of prospects. Although sharing the products or services and the opportunity with people you know is still the basic foundation of the business, today we see more people using sophisticated marketing techniques such as the Internet, conference calling and other long-distance sponsoring techniques to extend their network across the country.\nNetwork marketing isn't a get-rich-quick scheme. Of course some people do make large amounts of money very quickly. Many would say those people are lucky. But success in networking isn't based on luck. (Unfortunately, money won't sprout wings and fly into your bank account no matter what someone has promised you.) Success in network marketing is based on following some very basic yet dynamic principles.\nNow let's discuss what network marketing is. Network marketing is a serious business for serious people. It's a proven system where the design, creation and expense the corporate team has gone through becomes a road map for your own success. Just follow the simple, proven and duplicable system that the good companies provide.\nThe real key is this: Network marketing is all about leverage. You can leverage your time and increase the number of hours of work effort on which you can be paid by sponsoring other people and earning a small income on their efforts. J. Paul Getty, who created one of the world's greatest fortunes, said \"I would rather make 1 percent on the efforts of 100 people than 100 percent on my own efforts.\" This very basic concept is the cornerstone of network marketing.\nFor example, most successful people building a network marketing business do so in an organized method. They work a few dedicated hours each week, with each hour of effort serving as a building block for their long-term business growth. Then they sponsor other people and teach those people how to sell the company product and sponsor others who duplicate the process.\nBy helping the people you personally sponsor to sponsor others, you duplicate yourself. As this process continues, you create compound growth that can lead to hundreds or even thousands of people coming into your business. You leverage your time by helping others be successful and earn an income from all their efforts.\nWith network marketing, there are no big capital requirements, no geographical limitations, no minimum quotas required and no special education or skills needed. Network marketing is a low-overhead, homebased business that can actually offer many of the tax advantages associated with owning your own business. Network marketing is a people-to-people business that can significantly expand your circle of friends. It's a business that enables you to travel and have fun as well as enjoy the lifestyle that extra income can provide.",

        "title": "Seventh Sunday after Trinity: Genesis 2:7-17 \u2014 Word Fitly Spoken",
        "raw_content": "Seventh Sunday after Trinity: Genesis 2:7-17\nGenesis 2:7-17 is part of the first \u201cgenerations\u201d section of the book which begins in Genesis 2:4, if the preceding material is taken as a kind of introduction to the following divisions. It is a foundational section not only for Genesis, but also for all of Holy Scripture, since it includes the creation of man, the creation of woman, the fall into sin, and the murder of Abel. Moses has different purposes in mind here than he did in the introduction of Genesis, and the \u201cgenerations\u201d structure helps illustrate this. \u201cThese are the generations of the heavens and the earth\u201d points to what comes after them. The primary focus is the generations and not the generator, which is why the \u201cgenerations of Terah\u201d in Genesis 11:27, for example, is primarily concerned with Abraham, his son. This first section, therefore, is concerned primarily with the \u201cdescendants\u201d of God and the heavens and the earth: man, particularly Adam and his family.\nThis reading is also an excellent exercise in Biblical interpretation, because every passage of Scripture is important. Genesis 2:10-14 is a geography lesson which we will explore in more detail, but there is a sinful inclination to dismiss it as irrelevant. But the Holy Spirit does not speak in vain: \u201cFor whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope\u201d (Romans 15:4; see also 1 Corinthians 10:11 and 2 Timothy 3:16-17). If the passage in question seems pointless, the problem is with us, because we do not understand.\nConsider, then, the first part of this reading. God creates Adam from the dust of the ground and breathes into him the breath of life. He also plants a garden in Eden and places every good tree in it. The Lord is our Creator and apart from Him there is no life. However, note that the garden is placed in Eden. The garden itself is not named Eden! The reference is a specific location, which Moses clarifies below, not a world-garden or anything of the sort. This is especially important because Adam is created outside of Eden and placed into it. He is not in the garden \u201cby right,\u201d but because of God\u2019s almighty Providence. Everything which Adam has belongs \u201cby right\u201d to God, and Adam receives it because of God\u2019s love toward him. The Lord \u201cmakes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust\u201d (Matthew 5:45). In Eden, just as now, everything we have is a gift.\nThe special trees also emphasize this. God does not give the tree of life as a kind of super-fruit which perpetuates physical life. He gives the tree as a constant reminder that life flows from God and is not ours \u201cby right.\u201d The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is also not a super-fruit which brings death or knowledge in eating it. It is a sign toward Adam of his creaturehood: what is good and what is evil is the prerogative of God and not man. What is good? To listen to His voice and not eat of this tree. What is evil? To disobey His voice and eat of this tree. God speaks and man listens. If this seems unjust or arbitrary, this speaks to our sinful nature. Adam was not content to be a hearer and desired to be the judge instead. This sinful desire against our creaturehood is the basic root of all sin.\nAll of this brings us to the geographical description of Eden. This section has a real point and should not be passed by for two reasons. First, it is not good to dismiss this as being the geography of the pre-Flood world which is no longer in existence. Such an approach is too easy, by which I mean that it consigns the description to being useless for us, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Second, Moses writes this with a view to his hearers. Why would he write something which would be incomprehensible even to those who first heard it? The mention of Assyria itself in Genesis 2:14 is proof of this. Moses is writing with real geography in mind to describe a place which could, in fact, be located. Nor is it sufficient to say that we no longer have rivers named Gihon or Pishon, because place-names change all the time, even in the Bible (Jerusalem was called Jebus by the Jebusites, for example in Judges 19:11).\nThe world has, of course, physically changed over the course of time. Rivers flow in different beds than they did in ancient days, especially in a shifting land like Mesopotamia. Nor should an attempt to locate Eden be taken as a kind of \u201cproof\u201d for the Bible, because men would worship such a \u201cproof\u201d as an idol, like they did the bronze snake which they named Nehushtan (2 Kings 18:4). But even if we cannot accurately locate Eden anymore, Moses is not writing fantasy. Eden was a real place and had a real garden. The Flood may have wiped it away, but we are not told this. It is entirely possible that the Flood changed essentially nothing, geographically speaking. It was, to use an expression of George Stoeckhardt, a \u201cwonder-judgment.\u201d Being a miracle, we are called to believe the one who speaks with authority through His holy Scriptures. \u201cWhere were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding\u201d (Job 38:4)!\nTherefore, I think two serious possibilities exist. The first is a bit more difficult reading, but in my opinion (and only as an opinion) a more likely. If one follows Genesis 2:10 upstream by translating \u201cbecame four rivers\u201d with the more literal \u201cbecame (or had) four heads,\u201d this would place the region of Eden near what is now the Persian Gulf. The Tigris and the Euphrates empty into the Gulf. If one reads this passage from the context of the land of Israel, the Pishon and the Gihon are the \u201cfurthest away\u201d in the east. The Tigris and the Euphrates are respectively \u201ccloser.\u201d Therefore, the Pishon may be the modern Karun in Iran and the Gihon the modern Karkheh (also called the Ulai river in Daniel 8:2). All of these rivers join together into one before dumping into the Gulf. The difficulty is, of course, having to \u201cread upstream,\u201d which is more awkward.\nThe other possibility is placing Eden near the actual headwaters of the Tigris and the Euphrates in modern Armenia, which are actually quite close to each other. The Pishon and the Gihon would be rivers flowing in opposite directions, probably into the Black Sea and/or the Caspian. This has the advantage of being a more \u201cnatural\u201d and \u201cdownstream\u201d reading, but these rivers have never been known to actually connect. It is not impossible, since Sodom used to be \u201cwell watered everywhere like the garden of the Lord\u201d (Genesis 13:10).\nUltimately, these two possibilities are better than relegating this to myth or engaging in allegory. Identifying the Pishon and the Gihon with other, but farther away, world rivers is not helpful for this reason. Better to consider real options than engaging in sheer fancy.\nThree final observations. First, the names of the rivers are instructive. The Pishon is likely derived from the word meaning \u201cto leap, jump\u201d used in Jeremiah 50:11, Nahum 3:18, Habakkuk 1:8, and Malachi 4:2. Pishon therefore means \u201cJumper\u201d or maybe \u201cBubbler,\u201d emphasizing its liveliness. The Gihon likely comes from the verb meaning \u201cto burst forth\u201d used in Judges 20:33, Ezekiel 32:2, Micah 4:10, Job 38:8, and Job 40:23. Gihon therefore means \u201cGusher\u201d or \u201cCharger.\u201d Such names are fitting for rivers which are connected to the one (nameless!) river which flows through the garden of God.\nSecond, Moses records that the land of Havilah was filled with all kinds of \u201cexpensive\u201d things, like gold and precious stones (Genesis 2:11-12). Bdellium itself may be a resin, an incense related to myrrh, though this is uncertain. What is certain is the general wealth of that land. However, note the location. Gold and \u201cexpensive\u201d things are not in the garden. They are not evil, but they are also not necessary. To obtain them, Adam would have to leave Eden. In Eden is life and the words of the living God. Gold is good, but the Gospel is far better. \u201cThe rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb\u201d (Psalm 19:9-10). \u201cMan does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God\u201d (Matthew 4:4). \u201cOne thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her\u201d (Luke 10:42).\nFinally, the Lord places Adam into the garden to work it and till it. Work is not in itself evil. Toil where the fruits do not match the labor is the curse laid upon mankind (Genesis 3:17-18). Work is God-pleasing. \u201cIf anyone is not wiling to work, let him not eat\u201d (2 Thessalonians 3:10). \u201cLook carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil\u201d (Ephesians 5:15-16). Like the giving of the Law in Eden, work precedes the Fall and is therefore a part of God\u2019s good creation.\nTags: creation, Eden, garden, Genesis, geography, Hermeneutics, Seventh Sunday after Trinity\nhttp://wordfitlyspoken.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/creation_06.jpg 300 400 Rev.

        "raw_content": "Companion planting is a technique used before the advent of pesticides and other insecticides to optimize the development of vegetables and flowers by wisely choosing the varieties to grow together. As a matter of fact, some plants have the ability to repel or even kill insects harmful to other plants. Others, on the other hand, are particularly fit to attract these insects and sacrifice themselves to save others. In short, companion planting has countless virtues.\nConcerning companion plants, certain combinations are particularly advised against. Some associations to be avoided are the potato and tomato, beans and onions, and lettuce and broccoli. The companion planting technique is making a strong comeback as an alternative method allowing, as much as possible, to avoid the use of pesticides and insecticides.\nOverview of companion plants\nAphids are probably the most destructive insect pests in vegetable gardens and flower gardens. Rose bushes, potatoes, turnips, apples, cabbage, grapes, etc \u2026 the aphids\u2019 victims are numerous. Fortunately, the companion plants used to eliminate them are also very diverse. To drive them away, one can, for example, plant fennel, dill, milkweed, anise, chives, rosemary, lavender or Valerian. Mustard and nasturtium, on the other hand, have the ability to irresistibly attract them, and when these plants are totally infested by insect pests, simply cut and burn them.\nTo ward off Colorado potato beetles which, as their name suggests, attack potatoes, just grow them near dandelion, coriander, horseradish, tansy, datura or, to kill two birds with one stone, tomato. Some plants have the ability to keep almost all insects at bay. Among these, we can include elderberry, rosemary and, for those with a large garden, eucalyptus. Mugwort, meanwhile, not only wards off nearly all insects but also slugs, snails and even rodents. Fennel grown between the rows of lettuce protects them from the attacks of slugs that cannot stand their scent. When they release their fragrance, aromatic plants prevent parasitic insects from recognizing their usual preys.\nRecommended companion plant associations\nAs nature would have it, some plants protect each other when grown together. Carrots, for example, protects tomatoes from aphid attacks while the tomato keeps flies away from carrots. The onion has the same action on the carrot, while the latter drives flies away from onions. Let us list a few companion plants that are grown with our favourite vegetables: potatoes very much appreciate the company of lettuce, onion, cabbage and radish; the carrot grows wonderfully near onions, tomatoes, leeks and radishes; tomatoes prefer to be in the vicinity of carrots, parsley onions, etc \u2026 Note that the onion is not only a popular vegetable, but an incomparable companion plant. Legumes, such as beans, trap nitrogen in the air and then release it into the ground, which is very appreciated by leafy vegetables, especially lettuce, that are particularly fond of this substance.\nUsing available ressources to fight off insect pests\nPublished in Organic by Alexander on 14 Sep 2011\nTree pruning and felling\nTree pruning is a procedure...\nCommon cattail: planting, ma ...\nOf the Typhaceae family, common...\nThe artichoke is an easy-to-grow...\nFor a successful sowing, choose...",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Kids Encyclopedia \u00bb Mammals Encyclopedia \u00bb Squirrel\nSquirrel \u2014 A squirrel is any member of the rodent family Sciuridae\u2013with the exception of the marmots, Marmota; prairie dogs, Cynomys; and chipmunks, Eutamias and Tamias\u2013and typically has a slender body and a long, bushy tail. The name is more commonly used to refer to those forms which live in trees, although it is equally suited to terrestrial types. It is also used for arboreal African rodents of the family Anomaluridae, which are known as scaly-tailed squirrels.\nThe family Sciuridae contains two subfamilies, the Sciurinae (the tree and ground squirrels), with about 225 species, and the Petauristinae (the FLYING SQUIRRELS), with about 35 species. Squirrels are distributed throughout the world except for the Australian region, Madagascar, southern South America, and certain desert regions, such as the northern Sahara and Arabia.\nSquirrels vary in size from such tiny tropical forms as the pygmy squirrels, Myosciurus, of Africa, which are about 130 mm (5 in) in length including the tail, to the giant squirrels, Ratufa, of Asia, which may attain 91 cm (36 in). The tree and ground squirrels are typically diurnal, and the flying squirrels, nocturnal. Squirrels primarily eat green vegetation, seeds, nuts, berries, fruits, and insects.\nThe American eastern gray squirrel, Sciurus carolinensis, typical of the tree squirrels, is native to the forests of the eastern half of the United States. Introduced into the United Kingdom, it has displaced the smaller native red squirrel, S. vulgaris, in many regions. Gray squirrels have many color variations. Nesting is normally in tree hollows; gray squirrels also may construct leaf nests, which are used mainly as feeding shelters. Gray squirrels may breed in midwinter and again in late spring. Gestation is about 44 days, with usually two to four young per litter.\nGround squirrels are similar in appearance to tree squirrels. They typically inhabit open or brushy regions, with some species occurring in tundra or desert. Most are burrowers, and those living in colder climates hibernate, whereas others, in hot, dry areas, may estivate.\nUnlike rabbits or deer, squirrels cannot digest cellulose and must rely on foods rich in protein, carbohydrates, and fat. Early spring is the hardest time of year for squirrels, since buried nuts begin to sprout and are no longer available for the squirrel to eat, as well as new food sources have not become available yet. During these times squirrels rely heavily on the buds of trees, in particular, those of the Silver Maple. squirrels are omnivores; they eat a wide variety of plant food, including nuts, seeds, conifer cones, fruits, fungi, and green vegetation, and they also eat insects, insect larvae, eggs, and even small birds, smaller mammals, frogs, and carrion. In tropical areas, these foods often replace nuts. Ground and tree squirrels are typically diurnal, while flying squirrels tend to be nocturnal \u2014 except for lactating flying squirrels and their offspring, who have a period of diurnality during the summer.\nPrevious Springbok\nNext Suricate",

        "raw_content": "Abja Rural Municipality is situated in the Halliste Parish, the southern part of Viljandi County. The Halliste River and Kariste Lake are located near the northern border of the rural municipality. The municipality shares its southern border with the Republic of Latvia. The relief of the rural municipality may be classified as two: the northern part is covered with hummocks, mature valleys and walleys with a notch-like bottom, and the southern part is plains. The P\u00e4rnu-Valga asphalt road passes through the rural municipality and the Abja-Paluoja-Sultsi and M\u00f5isak\u00fcla roads start from this road. The rest of the roads are covered with gravel, their total lenght is 77km.\nAt present, the rural municipality owns 29.019ha of land. It is divided into cultivated land 9.630ha, natural grassland 1.652ha, forest and 12.913ha, yard land 179ha, other land 3.587ha.\nPeople settled the place at least five thousand years ago, which may be concluded on the basis of incidental discoveries and graveyards. At the beginning of the 13th Century, these territories were conquered by German knights. Our municipality belonged to the Karksi Bailwick of the Viljandi Commandery. Abja was mentioned for the first time in historical sources in 1504. As a result of the Livonian War Poland seized power and governed us from 1560 to 1629. In consequence of the Altmark Peace Treaty, we became subjects of Sweden. By reason of the Great Northern War we belonged under Russia from 1710 to 1918. The year 1918 saw the German occupation. We were independent from 1918 to 1940.\nSoviet power was established in 1940 and German occupation lasted for the years 1941 to 1944. During the years 1944 to 1991, our state suffered under Soviet occupation. The occupations of the last 60 years have changed the life of the Abja Rural Municipality to a great extent. 166 persons were arrested and 314 persons deported by the Soviet power. In 1944, many people escaped to Germany and Poland. People have also been continously leaving for towns and cities.\nAgriculture is the main sector of economy in Abja. The arable land is fertile and provides good yields when taken care of. Up to the middle of the 19th Century, the land belonged to the following masons: Abja, Penuja, Laatre, Veelikse and Vanam\u00f5isa. After that, until the year 1940, the land was owned by wealthier farms. Beginning from the year 1949, during the Soviet power, the land belonged to the collective farms, later to two state farms: Abja and Kamara. At present, 70% of the land has an owner. There are 179 farms in the Abja Rural Municipality.\nGrain growing has been the main area of activity regarding agriculture in Abja. In the second half of the 19th Century and the first half of the 20th Century, people also dealt with flax growing, and in the 20th Century, with cattle breeding and forage production.\nThe Abja Flax Mill that operated from 1910 to 1990 and now As Toom Tekstiil, founded 1995 and employing over 100 persons, have formed the indrustrial enerprises of our municipality.\nDuring the 20th Century, there were also many servicing companies. Abja Tarbijate \u00dchistu, fonded in 1909, (Abja Consumer Association) deals with trade. There are 8 other companies that engage in trade in Abja.\nPeople have had the possibility to get education in Abja from the year 1812. Until 1919, there were rural municipality and parish schools in Abja, after that elementary schools were established. Since the year 1940, one has been able to get upper secondary education in Abja.\nThere are 2 kindergartens in the rural municipality: in Abja-Paluoja (founded in 1912) and in Kamara (founded in 1962).\nAt the beginning of the 20th Century, the municipality saw the start of active social life. Economic, cultural and educational associations were established. The cultural associations practised traditional folk culture: choirs, folk dancing, plays and sports. Up to the year 1940, these activities were managed by the Fire Fighting Association, educational associations and the National Defence League. Today, the Abja Community Center, founded in 1945, is the promoter of cultural interests.\nThere are points of interests in Abja: in the field of architecture there is a former bank building (architect E.Kuusik), a school building, community center, community office, Abja Manor and its production buildings, the ruins of Penuja Chruch, and the so-called mansions and barn-dwellings of the inhabitants of Viljandi County. There are memorials erected to Jaan Jung, August Kitzberg, Johan Ludri, the casualties of the War of Independence and the murder victims of the year 1941. The Devonian sandstone outcrops on the banks of the Halliste River and its tributaries and streams are the most significant natural sights-they are called hells and they situated in V\u00e4nda Valey, Pikamatsi, Hendrikhansu and the Lopa outcropping.",

        "raw_content": "Brigadier Okoya & Dr Obote\nPierino Yere Okoya, was the deputy army commander and the commander of the Second Infantry Brigade of the Uganda army in Masaka. Before that he was the second in command of the B Company in the 4 KAR in Jinja which was the nucleus of the post-independence army.\nFollowing independence Okoya rose through the ranks, becoming a captain, major and colonel by 1965. He was made brigadier and army chief of staff in 1968 due to his leadership, dedication and discipline; which according to those who knew him well was an admiration to other officers, and won him respect in the rank and file of the Ugandan army.\nA giant, whisky-loving soldier, Okoya was who was the Brigade Commander of what was at the time known as the Western Command, based in Masaka, was killed, together with his wife Anna on January 25, 1970 at their Gulu home in northern Uganda , a few kilometres away from the army barracks.\nAnna Okoya had gone to take a bath on the veranda when the killers struck. Brig Okoya came out on hearing the gunshot and was in turn killed in the doorway.\nFollowing this, Brig. Smuts Guwedeko, then a Captain, and Major Geoffrey Kasule were arrested on suspicion that they had a hand in Okoya\u2019s murder.\nOkoya\u2019s death was never investigated, even after numerous calls for an independent inquiry into this cowardice event. Acholi leaders, and Acholi officers and men of the Uganda Army failed to hold Obote\u2019s government to account for the death of Brig Okoya which came almost immediately after the mysterious death of another gallant son of Acholi, Col Omoya in 1969.\nBrig Okoya\u2019s murder complicated the relationship between Obote and Amin, Okoya had earlier denounced Amin for cowardice because he fled to a military base instead of taking charge of the army following an attempted assassination of Obote in December 1969. Okoya\u2019s death marked the beginning of the blood bath that the Acholi people are still being subjected to 40 years after his death.\nBorn in 1928 in Palaro, sub-county, Gulu district, Okoya joined the Kings African Rifles (KAR) in 1950. He was commissioned Lieutenant in 1962 after independent. Others appointed to the same rank by the Presidential Commission of the Kabaka, were Omoya and Albertino Langoya. The only other Lieutenants in the country at the time were Idi Amin Dada and Shaban Opolot who were commissioned by the Queen.\nI\u00b4m surprised that the late Prof Odonga did not make it to this least,",

        "raw_content": "Hibbing High School, Hibbing Minnesota, From The Air (Source: Minnesota Historical Society)\n\"I think I'll call it America\" / I said as we hit land\"\n-Bob Dylan (n\u00e9 Robert Allen Zimmerman), Hibbing High School, Class of 1959 [1]\nDear Reader, for this inaugural excursion into the American landscape, indulge me for a moment and let me parse the above epigram. If your tastes gravitated once towards the mythical and legendary, this brief quote may cause you to recall a series of stories and images, of the Mayflower, an oaken sloop dashed upon a rocky Massachusetts coast, of Colonies of the Bay and Lost varieties, of Myles Standish standing proud, or even of the Wampanaog emissary Tisquantum planting oily mossbunker in the Plymouth loam. You may even imagine the leathery boot with rusted lachets making transition from gunwale to granite, with a weatherbeaten William Bradford in oilskin frock declaring the visto unfurling before his eyes a map made real, of meridians and parallels, hachures and rosa ventorum\u2014all becoming trees and sand. He thinks he\u2019ll call it America, so the epigram goes, with nary a mention of Vespucci or Vinland, at least not yet.\nHere are the beginnings not of America, but of \u201cAmerica,\u201d words belonging to one \u201cCaptain Arab,\u201d the Captain of the Mayflower who is not ingrained in our historical consciousness as much as he is part of our pop cultural landscape. He is a character in \u201cBob Dylan\u2019s 115th Dream,\u201d Bob Dylan\u2019s raucous send-up of the American originary myth from his 1965 album, Bringing it All Back Home. It is a song known as much for its false start\u2014Dylan begins to sing \u201cI was riding on the Mayflower/When I thought I spied some land\u201d[2] before breaking down in laughter and having to restart the song\u2014as for its fabulous concoction of a New World replete with French bistros (staffed by angry servers and exploding cookware), English hot dog stands, \u201chobo sailors,\u201d malfunctioning telephone booths, bowling alleys, and even a cameo appearance by a jail bound Christopher Columbus. This is not the duck-jacketed Dylan we see on the hazy cover of The Freewheelin\u2019 Bob Dylan, huddled with Suze Rotolo on the corner of Jones and West 4th Streets\u2014as idyllic an image of Greenwich Village as we will ever know. This is Electric Dylan, appearing rakish and squinty-eyed on the cover of Bringing it All Back Home, sitting on a musty couch in a cluttered living room in Woodstock, New York with a reclining Sally Grossman. They are surrounded by mid-sixties ephemera, from Robert Johnson and Fran\u00e7oise Hardy albums, to a Time magazine cover featuring Lyndon B. Johnson, and even a wayward Fallout Shelter sign. (Aficionados of this album will recall that the original version this photo shoot reveals a book at Dylan\u2019s feet\u2014the Bollingen edition of Richard Wilhelm\u2019s translation of the I Ching, the same version that inspired Philip K. Dick to write The Man in the High Castle three years before.) \u201cBob Dylan\u2019s 115th Dream\u201d finds our former folk revivalist about to become the Stratocaster-wielding De Tocqueville we know from the 1965 Newport Folk Festival\u2014parrying his sonic parting shot on unsuspecting ears thanks to a rollicking version of \u201cMaggie\u2019s Farm\u201d (the third track from Bringing it All Back Home), barely drowning out the audience\u2019s caterwauling.\nThis historical comparison is not far-fetched. Something like the booing at Newport can be found, perhaps not surprisingly, in some of the first travelogues of the American landscape. In 1709, the English explorer John Lawson wrote A New Voyage to Carolina, an account of his experiences among the Catawba and Waxhaw tribes in North and South Carolina. He took keen interest in how their warriors \u201chave a Tune, which is allotted for that Dance; as, if it be a War-Dance, they have a warlike Song, wherein they express, with all the Passion and Vehemence imaginable, what they intend to do with their Enemies; how they will kill, roast, sculp, beat, and make Captive, such and such Numbers of them; and how many they have destroy'd before.\u201d[3] Alexis De Tocqueville, in the first chapter of the first book of his Democracy in America (1835), would map his own interest in song to the physical \u201cOutward Configuration of North America\u201d\u2014a true description of the North American landscape on par with Lawson\u2019s. Pages of rapturous prose evoking everything from the tributaries feeding into the Great Lakes, spreading into \u201cvast marshes, losing themselves in the watery labyrinth,\u201d to the fertile valleys between the Alleghenies and the \u201cgodlike\u201d Mississippi, find De Tocqueville noting how the \u201cIndian knew how to live without needs, suffer without complaint, and die with a song on his lips.\u201d[4] I am partial to the version of this passage appearing in the 1835 Henry Reeve translation\u2014\u201cThe Indian could live without wants, suffer without complaint, and pour out his death-song at the stake.\u201d[5] In his notes, Reeve traces De Tocqueville\u2019s knowledge of Indian death rattles to Jesuit writer Pierre-Fran\u00e7ois-Xavier de Charlevoix\u2019s history of the French-Indian war, Histoire de la Nouvelle-France (1744). Reeve, a cautious documenter as there ever was (he was a lawyer and friend of the blind Swiss naturalist, Fran\u00e7ois Huber), also noted Charlevoix\u2019s account of French explorer Samuel de Champlain\u2019s travels with Iroquois and Huron war parties, yet did not delve into a well-known part of this episode: while one war party was torturing its prisoners, Champlain, who refused to participate initially, resolved any moral dilemma by ending one captive\u2019s suffering with a coup de gr\u00e2ce to the skull with the bloodied stock of an arquebus. Instead, Reeve gave ear to a Huron warrior berating a prisoner for \u201call the cruelties which he had practised upon the warriors of their nation,\u201d who, before the violent deed, tells the prisoner \u201cthat if he had any spirit he would prove it by singing.\u201d Thanks to Reeve, the whole incident becomes a kind of musical commentary. The Huron warrior \u201cimmediately chanted forth his death-song, and then his war-song, and all the songs he knew, \u2018but in a very mournful strain,\u2019 says Champlain, who was not then aware that all savage music has a melancholy character.\u201d[6] Could this be one of the earliest descriptions of the Blues? It would not be hard to imagine a Lawson or De Tocqueville, in essence musical anthropologists in disguise, transforming into an Alan Lomax, plumbing the depths of the wilderness to catalogue the distinct strains of a musical America, searching along the Mississippi for the elusive blues guitarist Robert Johnson, who would, of course, haunt Dylan\u2019s early work.\nDylan would later craft a kind of musical theogony, casting Johnson as an Alabama Athena or Mississippi Minerva, \u201ca guy who could have sprung from the head of Zeus in full armor.\u201d[7] And such talk of crazed wanderings, of lightning bolts and explosions of mad genius should remind us that Dylan\u2019s \u201cArab\u201d is a cipher for that other famous American seagoer, the mercurial, monomaniacal, \u201cungodly, god-like\u201d Captain Ahab of Herman Melville\u2019s Moby-Dick; or, The Whale (1851). Like Leo Marx, we would declare Melville\u2019s seaborne yarns as constituting that most American of conventions, the landscape tale, incorporating everything from a young harpoonist in Typee securing passage \u201cacross an inscrutable Pacific wilderness\u201d to the whaleship Pequod leaving a foamy wake like \u201cthe track of a railroad crossing a continent.\u201d[8] Now, the landscape metaphor is more deeply ingrained, literally. Ishmael, who has assumed Moby-Dick\u2019s narrative mantle only because he has \u201clived to tell the tale,\u201d considers a deep, grim significance under Ahab\u2019s impassioned fervor: the Captain\u2019s \u201cfull lunacy subsided not, but deepingly contracted; like the unabated Hudson, when that noble Northman flows narrowly, but unfathomably through the Highland gorge.\u201d[9] The riverine metaphor, with its relentless directionality, suggests something of a sinister corridor raging through the mad captain\u2019s designs, a mania perhaps best encapsulated in his t\u00eate-\u00e0-t\u00eate with Moby-Dick, \u201cfrom hell\u2019s heart I stab at thee; for hate\u2019s sake I spit my last breath at thee,\u201d[10] a moment punctuated by the launch of blood-tempered harpoon. \u201cArab\u201d has no pretensions, and playing electric bard to Melville\u2019s Ishmael, Dylan sings:\nHe said, \u201cLet\u2019s set up a fort\nAnd start buying the place with beads\u201d\nJust then this cop comes down the street\nHe throw us all in jail\nFor carryin\u2019 harpoons.[11]\nFor Dylan, his 115th dream was a hallucinatory romp, part-Woody Guthrie, part-Rimbaud, echoing other famous travels. I would be remiss in not mentioning Mark Twain\u2019s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Huck, who channels Twain\u2019s own experiences as a river pilot, drifts lazily, memorizing the landscape, using his own words to animate the world along the banks of the Mississippi. Here, explorer, folk and blues singer, and river pilot alike are allied in a kind of cultural revision with fabulist, humorist, and scholar, all sounding a course through their own personalized America, transforming its landscape into a shared memory, an \u201cAmerica\u201d for all. No wonder, then, that Constance Rourke introduces her own excursus on \u201cAmerican Humor\u201d with another riverine metaphor, one less glib than Ishmael\u2019s: \u201cIn the nation, as comedy moves from a passive effervescence into the broad stream of a common possession, its bearings become singularly wide.\u201d[12] The main device for wanderings along the internal navigable waters of the \u201cAmerican\u201d consciousness is the line. Were I to share my own impressions of \u201cBob Dylan\u2019s 115th Dream\u201d to a friend, I would say something like, \u201cThere\u2019s this line I really like. It\u2019s really funny. It goes like this \u2026\u201d Yet the line can also be quite literal, for when Huck meanders down the Mississippi, taking in the world from horizon to horizon, he \u201csets out\u201d anchoring lines along the cottonwoods, notices the \u201cpale line\u201d marking the transition from river to sky, the \u201clong black streaks\u201d formed by currents in the still, morning waters. For Leo Marx, Huck\u2019s lines are especially apposite, as \u201cSentences flow in perfect cadence, without strain or stilted phrase or misplaced word.\u201d[13] In short, to mark a course through the landscape is to write the landscape. And to write the landscape, the implement of choice creates a mark, from a harpoon\u2019s jagged scar, to a flatboat\u2019s spumy backwash, to the groove on a 33 1/3 rpm long-player.\nLeave it to Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, astronomer and surveyor, respectively, to engage in the original act of writing the American landscape. Like their historical namesakes, the titular heroes of Thomas Pynchon\u2019s 1997 novel Mason & Dixon are entrusted with creating, and more importantly, inscribing the figurative lines of demarcation that will separate Pennsylvania from Maryland, and Maryland from Delaware\u2014the \u201cpurest of intersections mark\u2019d so far upon America.\u201d[14] It is Pynchon\u2019s most linear (and in a sense, straightforward) narrative. Matching \u201cBob Dylan\u2019s 115th Dream\u201d in hilarity and tone (if not in subject matter), Mason & Dixon charts a different course for the founding of America. Astronomers and surveyors hobnob with familiar figures cast in comic light, such as a marijuana-growing George Washington who moonlights as a stand-up comic and a mysterious, smoke-lensed Benjamin Franklin crafting his own version of the Dutch East India Company in the Ohio Valley. The art and science of geodesy still takes center stage as Mason and Dixon travel throughout the world to first record the Transit of Venus before interacting with shadowy syndicates and marshal arts societies on the eve of the American Revolution. In the end, the novel progresses along with the line of demarcation, a fact not lost upon the narratives, weaved often into interlacing, coiled strands that in some way or form always seem to concern lines, whether figurative or literal. The act of surveying and casting meridians and parallels begins with taking the readings of stars, a process that is not unlike the writing of narratives\u2014at least this is how in one of the novel\u2019s manifold inspired moments, Mason describes geodesy to Dixon as \u201cNumbers nocturnally obtain\u2019d be set side by side, and arrang\u2019d into Lines, like those of a Text, manipulated until a Message be reveal\u2019d.\u201d[15] Conversations hardly stray away from such conceits, and the link between map, landscape and writing culminates in a moment echoing De Tocqueville\u2019s \u201cOutward Configuration of North America\u201d (translated by Reeve as \u201cExterior Form of North America\u201d) when a fellow surveyor tells Dixon, \u201cThis \u2018New World\u2019 was ever a secret Body of Knowledge,\u2014 meant to be studied with the same dedication as the Hebrew Kabbala would demand. Forms of the Land, the flow of water, the occurrence of what us\u2019d to be call\u2019d Miracles, all are Text,\u2014 to be attended to, manipulated, read, remember\u2019d.\u201d[16]\nBut to what extent is the creation of such lines fiction? As recounted by one of the novel\u2019s main narrators, the Rev\u2019d Wicks Cherrycoke, \u201cThe Line makes itself felt,\u201d and yet \u201cas long as its Distance from the Post Mark\u2019d West remains unmeasur\u2019d, nor is yet recorded as Fact, may it remain, a-shimmer, among the few final Pages of its Life as Fiction.\u201d[17] The fictions in Mason & Dixon are recursive, layered upon each other and creating a dense narratological web. As in Dylan\u2019s 115th dream, here fact also mixes with fiction, as evidenced by the epigrams from nonexistent books that appear alongside more familiar names. Those with an inclination towards Aristarchus and Hipparchus, and who have also just taken in cameo appearances by novelist Patrick O\u2019Brian as well as colonial American analogues for Popeye and \u201cMister\u201d Spock, may take some refuge in the following passage from Timothy Tox\u2019s fake-epic poem, the epically titled Pennsylvaniad, itself another example of Mason & Dixon\u2019s \u201cgeodesickal\u201d imagination:\nLet Judges judge, and Lawyers have their Day,\nYet soon or late, the Line will find its Way,\nFor Skies grow thick with aviating Swine,\nEre men pass up the chance to draw the Line.[18]\nWith such talk of \u201caviating swine,\u201d we remind ourselves that sometimes pigs do indeed fly\u2014and they surely do in Mason & Dixon. Dixon is a prot\u00e9g\u00e9 of the mathematician William Emerson, who teaches surveying as literal flight above the landscape (reducing the modernist notion of the aerial \u201cGod\u2019s eye view\u201d into pure technique) and claims that before surveyors \u201clearn\u2019d to fly, they had to learn about Maps, for Maps are the Aides-m\u00e9moires of flight.\u201d[19] And mapmaking is \u201ca journey onward, into a Country unknown,\u2014an Act of Earth, irrevocable as taking Flight.\u201d[20]\nMaking maps, telling stories, writing lyrics\u2014all these are \u201cActs of Earth\u201d which not only document, but also create the American landscape. And the process is translated ninety degrees, from the orthogonal space of map to the rough surface of a wall. At least this is that the Wolf of Jesus, a Jesuit operative plotting not cartographical revenge, but true bloodlust against Colonials from a fortified monastery in Qu\u00e9bec, reveals during one of the many fantastical passages in Mason & Dixon: \u201cAs a Wall, projected upon the Earth\u2019s Surface, becomes a right Line, so shall we find that we may shape, with arrangements of such Lines, all we may need, be it in a Crofter\u2019s hut or a great Mother-City,\u2014Rules of Precedence, Routes of Approach, Lines of Sight, Flows of Power,\u2014.\u201d[21] To make a map is to make a wall, and to cast something on a wall is to tell a story of the land. George Rippey Stewart, that erstwhile documenter of American place-naming, wrote of this urge to project when he noted how \u201cThe frontier was not only of the land, but also in the minds of men\u201d who \u201cenjoyed pastoral landscapes no longer, but looked admiringly at the canvases of the Hudson River School\u2014chasms and waterfalls and rough mountains in the mist.\u201d[22] These canvases, hung on American walls in Stewart\u2019s idyllic New England are not unlike those found by rock critic Greil Marcus in 2007 on a pilgrimage to Hibbing, Minnesota to see Dylan\u2019s alma mater, Hibbing High School. Marcus lit off on this trip based on a former Hibbing resident\u2019s testimony, \u201cIf you\u2019d been to Hibbing, you\u2019d know why Bob Dylan came from there. There\u2019s poetry on the walls.\u201d[23] Upon his arrival to Hibbing High, Marcus indeed did see something on its walls: \u201cWe gazed up at old-fashioned but still majestic murals depicting the history of Minnesota, with bold trappers surrounded by submissive Indians, huge trees and roaming animals, the forest, and the emerging towns.\u201d[24]\nThe tour of Hibbing High concludes with a dream-like vision of the very auditorium where Robert Zimmerman began his transformation into Bob Dylan. There, on the auditorium walls, \u201cgilded paintings of muses waited; they smiled over the proscenium arch, too, over a stage that, in imitation of thousands of years of ancestors, had the weight of immortality hammered into its boards.\u201d[25] It is a lovely image, of ghosts from time immemorial, of landscapes fading into an earlier history. Here, then, are the origins of Dream Number 115, our peregrination through the heart of the wilderness into something that is truly, deeply, ours. America. At least that\u2019s what we think we\u2019ll call it.\nA version of this essay was first published in the first issue of Manifest: A Journal of American Architecture and Urbanism (2013).

        "title": "Alfalah Consulting: Islamic Banking in Kashmir",
        "raw_content": "Islamic Banking in Kashmir\nIslamic finance for all: There are three different perspectives to look at the idea of Sharia\u2019h-compliant banking & finance. One is religious, which is where it has come from i.e. Quran & Sunnah; the second is purely from the Economics point of view, wherein people express their interest in it only because they see it as a viable alternative to the current financial system. However, being Muslims as well as responsible global citizens, we should actually be concerned with both the reasons; hence go with the third perspective of having both the reasons. At the time, when Islamophobes are at their best to reduce Islam to an obsolete 6th century Arab doctrine, what better response could be to it other than offering to them a recession-proof & just economic system, which shall ensure their financial stability and that of their children. It must be noted that Islam does not restrict this system only to the Muslims but it\u2019s open to Non-Muslims as well. It is with the same spirit that we have come up with \u2018Islamic Banking Kashmir\u2019 (IBK), which is a Research, Advocacy & Awareness group, based in J&K. However, before anyone talks about its advocacy or its benefits, the general public has a right to know the legal hurdles in the way of its implementation.\nRegulatory impediments for us: The banking industry in India is currently governed by The Banking Regulation (BR) Act 1949, The RBI Act 1934, The Cooperative Societies Act & The Negotiable Instruments Act 1961. Certain sections of the said acts are in contradiction with the foundational theory of Islamic banking. Examples: The section 21 of the BR Act necessitates the interest on Deposits. The idea of \u2018Profit & Loss Sharing investments\u2019 is clearly prohibited by its sections 5(b) and 5(c). And the section 8 of the BR Act disallows any bank to directly or indirectly buy, sell or barter goods, which closes the door for Islamic bank\u2019s concept of Murabaha in which banks enter Sale & purchase agreements (Edgeverve). There are three ways to introduce Islamic banking/finance: One is a Stand-alone Islamic bank, second is to open a Special window for Interest Free banking within a Conventional bank & the 3rd is to go for a Non-Banking Finance Corporation (NBFC). Since an NBFC does not fall under the jurisdiction of BR Act, it remains a possibility in Kashmir even this time, on the lines of Cheramaan group in Kerala. The 2nd option of \u2018Special window\u2019 has recently been recommended by a high level RBI committee headed by Mr. Deepak Mohanty. The committee had sought suggestions from the concerned entities and we at IBK wrote to the Principal Chief General Manager, Reserve Bank of India, Financial Inclusion and Development Department, Mumbai& gave our suggestions. Within few days we shall also write to the Finance Ministry of India and the RBI governor. The 1st option of a stand-alone Islamic bank seems to be a little far, at the moment.\nWhy Islamic banking? Coming back to the various perspectives and motivations to seek this alternative form of finance, let\u2019s delve into them a bit. As far as the argument of freedom of religion goes, Riba\u2019(Usury/Interest) is the only sin in Islam, wherein such an individual has been declared to be at war with God, categorizing it as an uncompromisable tenet of Islam. The Economics argument can be proven by the fact that Not a single Islamic financial institution has had to be bailed out with tax payer\u2019s money, even during the 2008 sub-prime mortgage crisis (This is not to say that all the financial institutions who claim to be Islamic are really so, but even such opportunists who only want to tap Muslim market use some Islamic contracts, which saved them too). The reason being that no transaction takes place in an Islamic bank, unless it is backed by an asset. Such a principle does not let the industry create the currency out of thin air to lend that & charge interest from the poor individuals at the micro level or countries at the macro level, who crumble under the debt-bubble, which eventually bursts. The money gets concentrated within few people, which makes them richer and the interest payments make majority of the people poorer, hence the disparity. This is no less than a slaughter. This is the channel through which the financial institutions like the IMF, The World Bank or WTO get to control the resources of poor nations, when they fail to pay back debt. Islamic economics believes in risk-sharing & not the financial engineering of risk-transfer, in which only one party takes the risk and the other fats his belly & earns interest doing nothing for it. It\u2019s very simple to understand that anybody who bequeaths wealth will always get wealthier without having to work for it, while the one who is born poor will always get poorer by paying that interest for the loan, which his earlier generation had got, by his sweat & blood. Moreover, our unemployed youngsters who want to start business ventures can benefit from Mudaraba, in which both the bank as well as the applicant will use their resources and expertise to make the applicant\u2019s initiative profitable, as both shall have a stake in its success unlike the current system which is only concerned with the interest they earn on their disbursed loan amount and sealing the mortgage of the applicant, if the start-up fails. However, It resembles Venture Capital financing but here the investment is restricted only to the permissible sectors and it does not invest in the companies which having a zero conventional debt capital structure. So, it actually fuses economic viability with Islamic permissibility, rendering it a reliable option.\nConclusion: This is a vast field which can not be summed up in a column. We may still have numerous questions unanswered. However, the time has come for it and we need to help each other to seek knowledge and then seek permission from the concerned authorities, so that those amongst us who prefer it, shall have an option and they don\u2019t find the current financial system at loggerheads with their faith or their freedom of choice. I look forward to your support.\n(Greater Kashmir / 05 Febuary 2016)\nIslamic finance continues to grow in the British V...",

        "raw_content": "Department of Energy Offers Conditional Commitment for a Loan Guarantee to Support World's Largest Wind Project\nU.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu today announced a conditional commitment to provide a partial guarantee for a $1.3 billion loan in support of the world's largest wind farm to date. The loan will finance the Caithness Shepherds Flat wind project, an 845 megawatt wind-powered electrical generating facility located in eastern Oregon sponsored by Caithness Energy LLC and General Electric (GE) Energy Financial Services.\n\"Thanks to the Recovery Act, we are creating the clean energy jobs of the future while positioning the U.S. as a world leader in the production of renewable energy,\" said Secretary Chu. \"This project is part of the Administration's commitment to doubling our renewable energy generation by 2012 while putting Americans to work in communities across the country.\"\nThe Caithness Shepherds Flat wind project consists of 338 wind turbines supplied by GE. The project will use GE's 2.5xl turbines, which are designed to provide high efficiency and increased reliability, maintainability and grid integration. The wind farm is the first in North America to deploy these turbines, which have been used in Europe and Asia. Once completed, the project will sell 100 percent of the power generated to Southern California Edison through 20-year fixed price power purchase agreements. The wind facility will avoid 1,215,991 tons of carbon dioxide per year, equivalent to the annual greenhouse gas emissions from 212,141 passenger vehicles. According to Caithness, the project will directly create 400 construction jobs, followed by 35 permanent jobs on site.\nThe Caithness Shepherds Flat project is the largest project to date to receive an offer of a conditional commitment for a loan guarantee under the Financial Institution Partnership Program (FIPP), a Department of Energy program supported by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. In a FIPP financing, the Department of Energy guarantees up to 80 percent of a loan provided to a renewable energy project by qualified financial institutions. The $1.3 billion loan is expected to be funded by a group of institutional investors and commercial banks led by Citi, as lender-applicant and joint lead arranger, and three other joint lead arrangers, the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., RBS Securities and WestLB Securities Inc.\nLoan Modification said...\nCongratulation for $1.3 billion loans for new project of the Caithness Shepherds Flat wind project.

        "raw_content": "We start off the chapter with Harry and Ron having been snubbed by Hermione, who is refusing to speak to them\u2013and how the boys count this as a plus since she is such a \u201cbossy know-it-all\u201d. I grimace at this language, but on the other hand, I know what\u2019s coming. And I also know that we\u2019re in the POV of an eleven-year-old kid here, so I\u2019m willing to cut a little slack.\nI do have to eye McGonagall\u2019s sending Harry the broom a bit askance, though. Not that she did it in general, but that she made a point of sending along a note telling him not to open it in the dining hall. I\u2019d think that if she didn\u2019t want him to open it where he could be observed, she might have, oh, I dunno, not had the owls drop it off in plain sight. That Harry gets something that\u2019s pretty obviously broomstick-shaped is bound to have raised a few eyebrows, even other than Draco\u2019s.\nA good stretch of this chapter is given over to Oliver Wood telling Harry the rules of Quidditch. Much has been written all over the Net about whether these rules make any sense. For me, as a reader, it all pretty much amounts to \u201cmagical sportsball\u201d. So whatevs, I\u2019m rolling with it!\nHermione crying at her harsh treatment is wince-inducing for any reader who\u2019s ever been bullied or made fun of at school, I expect. I winced at it as an adult. I can only imagine how it must have read to young readers the same age as Harry, Ron, and especially Hermione.\nMeanwhile, wait, the Hogwarts Hallowe\u2019en decorations involve live bats? One hopes that the staff have arranged spells for getting rid of the guano.\nBut then, of course, we have the action of the troll showing up. It\u2019s a great scene, and while I am a little disgruntled that Hermione spends the actual fight being too frightened to do anything, she makes up for it by covering for Harry and Ron. And the chapter ends with the three of them having sealed their friendship, yay!\n\u201cHallowe\u2019en\u201d has an apostrophe in the UK edition. In the US edition, it does not.\nDuring the Halloween feast, in the UK edition, Harry helps himself to a \u201cjacket potato\u201d. In the US edition, it\u2019s a \u201cbaked potato\u201d.\nWhat comes out of the troll\u2019s nose is \u201cbogies\u201d in the UK edition, and \u201cboogers\u201d in the US. Either way, one must imagine this book\u2019s target age group giggling at the notion of troll boogers. Because I mean honestly, eeeew!\nFour Things About the French Edition\n\u201cHalloween\u201d has no apostrophe in the French edition, either.\nProfessor McGonagall signs her note to Harry as \u201cProfesseur McGonagall\u201d, without the initial that does appear in all the other editions I\u2019ve got. Curious that the French translator chose to leave this out.\nWhen Oliver Wood\u2013or, rather, Olivier Dubois\u2013comes and finds Harry on the Quidditch field, in the English edition, he tells him that \u201cyou really are a natural\u201d. In French, he says \u201ctu as vraiment un don\u201d, which means \u201cyou really have a gift\u201d. What catches my eye here is the use of the word \u201cdon\u201d for gift. I\u2019m used to seeing the word \u201ccadeau\u201d. But this does make a sudden kind of sense, because I can easily see the connection to the English word \u201cdonate\u201d!\nMcGonagall, in the final scene, calls Hermione \u201cMiss Granger\u201d in French. Not \u201cMademoiselle\u201d. But unlike in the German edition, I noted that Harry called Professor Flitwick \u201cmonsieur\u201d, and not \u201csir\u201d. So the translators in general are showing an interesting inconsistency in how forms of address are handled, and I\u2019m not sure what\u2019s deliberate here, or whether this was an error on the translator\u2019s part.\nThe Quidditch field in French is \u201cle terrain de Quidditch\u201d.\nThe terms for the Quidditch players in French are:\n\u201cpoursuiveurs\u201d for the Chasers, which is a pretty decent direct translation;\n\u201cgardien\u201d for the Keeper, which is not quite as direct a translation since the obvious English analog here is \u201cguardian\u201d, but this word can also mean \u201ckeeper\u201d or \u201ccustodian\u201d, so that\u2019s all good;\n\u201cbatteur\u201d for the Beaters and \u201cattrapeur\u201d for the Seeker, which we knew from the previous chapter.\nThe terms for the Quidditch balls are:\n\u201cSouafle\u201d for the Quaffle, which, interesting that the translator didn\u2019t give it a Q to start with, since that letter does exist in French;\n\u201cCognards\u201d for the Bludgers, and I\u2019m not finding a direct translation for this word but it seems to be related to the verb \u201ccogner\u201d, which means \u201cto bang\u201d, so, apt;\n\u201cVif d\u2019or\u201d for the Golden Snitch, which is interesting, since I know \u201cvif\u201d mostly as an adjective meaning \u201clively\u201d or \u201cquick\u201d; here, though, Vif is clearly a noun. The Reverso.net page for the word suggests that it might be used in the sense of \u201cheart\u201d.\nAh, and I\u2019m not sure I noticed this in a previous chapter, but Lavender shows up named Lavande in French.\nNo apostrophe in \u201cHalloween\u201d in German!\nIn the scene where Hermione stomps past the boys, pointedly not speaking to them, she\u2019s described in the English and French editions as having her nose in the air. In German, however, there\u2019s a different phrase: \u201cHermine warf den Kopf in den Nacken\u201d. This apparently translates to \u201cHermione threw her head back\u201d. Same general motion, but a different way of describing it.\nHarry addresses Professor Flitwick as \u201cSir\u201d in the German edition, interestingly. Similarly, later in the chapter, McGonagall calls Hermione \u201cMiss Granger\u201d.\nLongest word spotted in the German edition: \u201cMannschaftstraining\u201d! 19 letters. It means \u201cteam training\u201d, which is what Harry\u2019s going to participate in with the Gryffindor Quidditch team three times a week.\nIn the scene where Professor Quirrell runs in to report the troll, in the sentence describing Harry about to eat his baked potato, the German sentence reads \u201cHarry nahm sich gerade eine Pellkartoffel\u201d. The verb \u201cnahm sich\u201d is I think actually the past tense of \u201csich nehmen\u201d, which means \u201cto help yourself to something\u201d. But it still reads like Harry\u2019s nomming himself a potato!\nThe Quidditch field in German is \u201cder Quidditch-Feld\u201d.\nThe terms for the Quidditch players in German are:\n\u201cJ\u00e4ger\u201d for the Chasers, which actually translates to Hunters in German, and I knew that, ha! And now I will totally be thinking of Pacific Rim here, and you TOTALLY know that kaiju would make a Quidditch game even more entertaining;\n\u201cH\u00fcter\u201d for the Keeper, which means \u201cguardian\u201d, similarly to the term in French;\n\u201cTreiber\u201d for the Beaters, and \u201cSucher\u201d for the Seeker, which we already got from the previous chapter.\nThe terms for the Quidditch balls in German are:\n\u201cQuaffel\u201d, which is practically the same as the English Quaffle;\n\u201cKlatscher\u201d for the Bludgers, which amuses me for a couple of reasons\u2013one, that this word is apparently related to \u201cgossip\u201d, which, of course, duh because \u201ccoffeeklatsch\u201d is a thing in English, and two, because the Reverso.net German->English dictionary totally references the Potter books for examples of this word here;\n\u201cGolden Schnatz\u201d for the Snitch.\nI do like this chapter overall for finally getting the three main characters into a unified force for mischief. I\u2019m less interested in the Quidditch per se, but it is an important plot motivator for many of Harry\u2019s adventures\u2013so it\u2019s no real surprise that we\u2019ll have more of that next time in Chapter 11!",

The sound and vision between album and film are closely intertwined - it was a brilliant synergy that led to a really unique project.\"\n\"We've always toyed with the idea of creating videos for every song on one of our albums,\" adds drummer Sean Kinney. \"Not only did we do that for Rainier Fog, it got totally out of hand and we made a whole goddamn movie. Everything that will be seen in the videos will be footage from 'Black Antenna' to preface the complete film's release.\"\nAlice In Chains are streaming a video preview of the \"Black Antenna\" project ahead of its launch next month.

        "raw_content": "Arbitrator Rules Tour 1 Casuals May Work After 5 a.m.\n12/03/2008 - In a national-level award, Arbitrator Shyam Das has ruled that Tour 1 casuals may continue to work past 5 a.m., concluding that the intent of the 2006-2010 Collective Bargaining Agreement is to prevent management from assigning casuals starting times between the hours of 5 a.m. and noon.\nThe dispute arose following negotiations for the 2006-2010 Collective Bargaining Agreement, which included a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) regarding the use of supplemental work-force employees and the conversion of Clerk Craft Part-Time Flexibles. Paragraph 8 of the MOU states that \u201cIn P&DCs that have 200 or more man years of employment in the regular work force, casuals will not have start times between the hours of 0500 and 1200 (noon) unless there are no career clerk craft employees currently with such starting times.\u201d The MOU also required the parties \u201cto meet and develop the appropriate contract language and implementation guidelines and instructions.\u201d\nRegarding Paragraph 8, the parties negotiated the following language in Article 7.1.B.4 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement:\nCasual employees will not normally work between 0500 and 1200 in mail processing operations. This provision is not to be circumvented locally by scheduling casuals immediately before or after the restricted time frames and is not applicable to Motor Vehicle Craft casuals.\nThe APWU interpreted the new contract language as prohibiting the Postal Service from routinely assigning Tour 1 casual employees work after 5 a.m. in mail processing operations. The union did not dispute that there occasionally may be mitigating circumstances that would justify working a casual during the restricted time frames, but asserted that the contract prevents management from regularly assigning Tour 1 casuals to work between the hours of 5 a.m. and noon.\nThe Postal Service initiated a dispute over whether there was a violation of the agreement when mail processing casuals work during the restricted hours. The Postal Service contended that the new provisions were not intended to \u201celiminate the longstanding practice of Tour 1 casual employees working past 5:00 a.m. to complete their assigned work.\u201d\nArbitrator Das ruled that \u201cArticle 7, Section 1.B.4 of the 2006-2010 National Agreement does not prohibit Tour 1 casual employees from normally continuing to work after 0500, provided they have not been scheduled in circumvention of the provision agreed to in paragraph 8 of the Memorandum of Understanding Re: Supplemental Work Force Conversion of Clerk Craft PTFs that is referenced at the end of 7.1.B and included in the CBA.\u201d (USPS #Q06-4Q-C 07200239; 11/24/2008)\nGreg Bell, APWU director of Industrial Relations, expressed disappointment in the decision, but noted, \u201cIt is clear from Arbitrator Das\u2019 ruling that the intent of the MOU and the provisions of Article 7.1.B.4 is to protect Tour 2, day-work positions and employees.\u201d\nIn summarizing the USPS position, Das wrote, \u201cThe Postal Service argues that the parties agreed to limit casual start times when they signed off on the MOU in December 2006 and they never altered that deal. The parties intended the restriction at issue to apply to start times in order to give the Postal Service greater flexibility to use casual employees. At the same time, the parties intended to protect existing day shift career employee positions from this new flexibility.\u201d [Emphasis added.]\nPart-Time Flexibles,\nPart-Time Flexibles",

        "raw_content": "How to Design a Small Commercial Kitchen\nIn order for a kitchen to function with maximum efficiency it needs to have been designed with purpose and care. You cannot simply fill a large room with kitchen equipment and expect it to function as a commercial kitchen. Everything, from the placement of the kitchen equipment, to the shape and structure of the room itself, plays a role in how efficiently the kitchen can operate. When designing a small commercial kitchen, you need to consider a range of different variables.\nA kitchen that is well designed will naturally and automatically lend itself well to safe and efficient operation. Ergonomics is the study of efficiency in people; when we refer to the ergonomics of a commercial kitchen we are referring to the efficiency with which those working in the kitchen are able to operate. In order to ensure that the kitchen you design is as ergonomic as possible you will need to take the time beforehand to think about what you want to achieve and how you can best go about achieving it.\nThere a number of different scenarios in which you might find yourself needing to design a kitchen. In some cases, you will already have a comprehensive knowledge of the food that is going to be served, and sometimes the people who will prepare it. Other times you will be working blind, trying to design a kitchen to be used by an unknown chef who will be producing an unspecified variety of cuisine.\nTrying to plan an ergonomic kitchen with no knowledge of what food will be prepared there is exceedingly difficult, in fact it is essentially luck! The key to efficiency in the kitchen is planning, only by knowing what needs to be done will you be able to devise a strategy to accomplish it as effectively as possible.\nOnce you know what food you are going to be preparing, and the equipment that will be required to prepare it, you can start to measure up the space you have and begin looking at equipment. Remember, not only will you need the equipment necessary to prepare the food, you will also need to refrigerate and store that food, in some cases you will also need to display it appropriately. Whatever the ultimate fate of your food, it, and you, will benefit from a well designed kitchen.\nIn addition to the ergonomics you will also of course have to make sure that your kitchen is capable of meeting all the relevant environmental and health & safety requirements. Kitchens that are producing a large volume of food which needs to be refrigerated will benefit form a walk-in freezer. You will also want to give your guests the best possible experience; to this end you should check out furniture from Apex.\nOnce you have a good idea of the kind of equipment you will need and the kind of food that you will be preparing, you can then begin to look at the different ways that you can make use of the space that you have. The more carefully that you plan things, the easier it will be to avoid problems, and solve any that do slip through the net.\nYou can head up for expert\u2019s opinion to resolve the issue as well. Boss Design Center can help you find the desired solution on that occasion.\nDesigning a commercial kitchen isn\u2019t exactly rocket science, but it is an endeavor which is fraught with difficulty for those that don\u2019t prepare.\nTags: commercial kitchen, design, ergonomic kitchen, interior, kitchen, small",

The Kwan-Gyu Lim Dance Company will perform at the Ford Amphitheatre on Friday, August 26, 2011 for one night only!\nThe Kwan-Gyu Lim Dance Company, known for staging creative and contemporary performances that have their roots in Korean traditional culture, presents Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. This performance features a fusion of Korean dance styles that brings to life the beauty and tempestuousness of the four Seasons in Korea.\nThe performance, led by Chief Executive Artistic Director and Choreographer, Kwan-Gyu Lim, expresses the distinctiveness and significance of each of the four seasons in Korea: the lonesome coldness of Winter, the bright prosperity of Spring, the warm ambience of Summer and the liveliness of Autumn.\nThe 25-member Kwan-Gyu Lim Dance Company uses modern production techniques and contemporary musical influences to introduce centuries-old Korean dance to new audiences. The evening includes vignettes that interpret the four seasons utilizing colorfully designed traditional costumes and updated music and dance. Realizing that traditional Korean Dance was not popular among the younger generation of dancers, Lim purposely modernized the styles so that they would have a wider appeal. The recorded music, a combination of the traditional and contemporary, is composed by Tony Lim, the son of Kwan-Gyu Lim. The younger Lim\u201d\u2122s original compositions are reflected in the Arirang Dance (Winter) and the Moon Light Dance (Summer).\n\u201cWe are here to introduce the excellence of art in traditional, creative and contemporary Korean dance,\u201d\u009d says Lim, \u201cWe take great pride in the artistry of our performance. This performance presents a unique and exciting opportunity for us to share our art with a broader audience,\u00c2 comprised of different generations and cultural backgrounds.\u201d\u009d\nKwan-Gyu Lim Dance Company focuses on keeping Korean traditional dance alive by modernizing its appeal, not only to garner a broader audience, but also to attract the next generation of dancers. By showcasing such traditional dance as the TaePyeongMu (Blessing peace dance), Hallyangmu (Dance of young Noblemen), Fan Dance and Salpuri (wash away evil spirits), which are seldom performed today, the traditional culture and heritage of Korea will be preserved.\nWinter, Spring, Summer and Autumn\n2580 Cahuenga Blvd. East\nHollywood, CA\u00c2 90068\n(scroll down for parking info)\n$30.00 and $20.00, and $12.00 for full-time students with ID and children 12 and under. 10% discount for groups of 8 -15, 20% for groups of 16 or more.\n*** Pre-purchase tickets by August 19th and pay only $25.00 or $15.00 ***\nThe artistic mission of the Kwan-Gyu Lim Dance Company, founded by Kwan-Gyu Lim in 1973, is to make Korean traditional dance, through the addition of modern elements, more appealing to a younger generation of Koreans and dance aficionados alike. More recently, the Kwan-Gyu Lim Dance Company has performed at Barnsdall Art Theatre, Wilshire Ebell Theatre, the Los Angeles Scottish Auditorium, and many Korean Churches.

        "raw_content": "The Will Graham Shrine (Aspen Mountain)\nThe Will Graham Shrine is on Aspen Mountain. I found it in September of 2018; it was created in the summer of 2017. Will was born on October 17, 1983 and drowned near the Devil's Punchbowl area east of Aspen on June 4, 2015. Photos of the Shrine are below; click on images to enlarge. Also, see other information below the photos.\nThis article appeared in the June 16, 2015 Aspen Times. The photos below the article were a part of the article.\nhttps://www.aspentimes.com/news/family-friends-remember-aspens-will-graham/\nFamily, friends remember Aspen\u2019s Will Graham by Scott Condon\nThe Graham family said it is too early to release details on a life\u2019s remembrance for Will, but they will likely hold something \u201cshort, simple and sweet\u201d in July in Aspen.\nGeraldine Graham said her son wouldn\u2019t want a slideshow featuring highlights of his life. He was too private and shy for that type of attention, she said.\nGeraldine and her husband, Billy, are leaving Aspen this week to spend time with her mother and other grieving family members in South Carolina.\nGeraldine and Billy Graham's sorrow over losing a child has been compounded over the past 12 days by the inability to locate and recover their son Will's body because of high water in the Roaring Fork River.\nWill Graham, 31, disappeared in the Devil's Punchbowl area east of Aspen on June 4 and is presumed drowned. Water levels must drop before authorities can bring him back and bring closure for his family and friends.\nWhile the passing of a few days hasn't lessened the grief, it has spurred a lot of reminiscing about the adventurous life and often troubled times of an Aspen free spirit.\nGeraldine said her son was a unique soul who could be incredibly endearing and loving but also someone who faced plenty of trouble, often fueled by alcohol.\n\"Don't make him out to be a saint. People would know it's not true,\" Geraldine said.\nThe outpouring of letters and emails to the family and comments on social media show how loved he was, she said.\nA recurring theme among the people who knew him best was how loyal Will was to his friends and family. His younger brother Wes said Will was always there for others.\n\"He had your back, no matter if you were right or wrong,\" Geraldine said.\n\"He was probably the most loyal person I know,\" said Liam Kiernan, a friend of Will since kindergarten. \"He never would have turned his back on anybody.\"\nHOCKEY FANATIC\nWill was an adventuresome child and natural athlete who gained a passion for hockey at a young age and excelled at it.\n\"Will could watch a sport and do it,\" Geraldine said. \"He would hunker down and skate like the wind.\"\nWill was a star on the Aspen High School hockey team during his junior year when it played Liberty High School for the Colorado championship in 2001. He fired what could have been the winning shot but saw it glance off the post with a resounding \"ding.\" Less than an inch prevented Will from bringing the title home to Aspen with his teammates.\nBut Will was doing what he loved with people he loved and for the town he loved. He just fell a bit short despite his best effort.\n\"It's sort of a metaphor for how things worked out for him,\" said Andy Popinchalk, an educator at the Aspen School District for 35 years and Will's English teacher his senior year.\nWill was a very likable young man who battled academic struggles and other issues and was grateful for the help he received, according to Popinchalk. He said he saw Will within the last month at the Aspen Meadows, where Will worked, and was greeted warmly. Will wanted to know about both him and his wife. Popinchalk said Will's interest was sincere.\nNICE KID NEXT DOOR\nPatti Clapper's family moved next to the Graham residence in Smuggler Trailer Court when Will was 2 years old. She will always remember him as the endearing neighbor boy who later found it easier to hop over the fence separating their yards than walking around to play with the Clapper children. Will was a big brother who looked after Clapper's daughter, Traci, and played with her son, Trevor.\nClapper and Geraldine would take turns keeping an eye on the children during evenings to give one another a chance to prepare dinner.\n\"Will was always the noisiest on the Big Wheels,\" Clapper said. \"He always had that Will Graham smile.\"\nWill also was outgoing, Clapper said, and was \"always on the edge of getting into trouble \u2014 mischievous boy trouble.\"\n\"He lived life. There was never a dull moment with Will,\" Kiernan said.\nThey spent a lot of time playing sports, exploring the mountains and watching movies in the Grahams' living room. \"He liked Vietnam-era war movies,\" Kiernan said. \"Platoon\" was one of his favorites.\nWill picked up on his dad's love of the Oakland Raiders football team despite living where the Denver Broncos reign supreme. Billy crew up in California and has backed the Raiders since its inaugural year in 1960.\nBilly said Will was telling him recently all about the new receivers the Raiders picked up this offseason and how that helped their prospects for the coming season.\nKiernan said no one gave Will any grief about being a Raiders fan while they were growing up.\n\"He's just Will. He's not going to back down,\" Kiernan said.\n'GAVE A LOT OF LOVE'\nIn big groups he could be shy, but among friends and family he was very outgoing, according to Kiernan and others. Even though he could be a hell-raiser at school, he also crafted bonds with some teachers.\n\"He was just fun to be around,\" Popinchalk said.\nWill's primary motivation in school was to get good enough grades to stay eligible for hockey.\n\"He loved and lived for hockey,\" Popinchalk said.\nHe also was an intelligent student but one who couldn't always apply himself to studies for whatever reason, Popinchalk said.\n\"He was a remarkable challenge to teachers and other people,\" he said.\nThe English teacher promised Geraldine that he would work with Will on his studies. They often met after class for tutoring. Popinchalk insisted that Will read his work out loud before he turned it in to make sure it was up to snuff. That helped.\nSometimes his schoolwork clicked, and Will felt the satisfaction of achieving a goal. Other times he disengaged and let a teacher know when he was disgusted.\n\"I think he loved his life, hard as it was,\" Popinchalk said. Will graduated in 2002.\nKaren Angus, a longtime former counselor at Aspen High School and family friend of the Grahams, said anyone who knew Will remembers the \"sparkling eyes, a smile and arms outstretched in a hug.\"\n\"He gave a lot of people love,\" Angus said.\nWhile loyalty was one of his traits, Will was particularly close to his mom, as is Wes.\n\"No matter what, she stood up for them,\" Kiernan said. Any time he got in trouble, he was worried how it would affect his mom, he said.\nThat intense loyalty sometimes got him in trouble. Women's alpine skiing star Lindsey Vonn was allegedly dissing Aspen once while hanging out in the Red Onion, according to Geraldine. Will didn't like what he heard and let Vonn know it with a verbal barrage.\nHe also was patriotic. \"He loved his country \u2014 love it or leave it \u2014 like a total redneck type,\" Geraldine said.\nWhile Geraldine said the family doesn't want Will's life \"whitewashed\" and Billy said Will was no saint, they also want to make sure he is remembered for all his good traits. An earlier Aspen Times article portrayed a one-sided view of Will through his legal troubles, the family said. The police and court records cited in the article provided an incomplete picture of his legal issues, they said, and in some cases, they contend the information is inaccurate or conjecture.\nThe Grahams and Will's girlfriend for 1\u00bd years, Meghan Tarr, said many of his problems centered on alcohol. He was typically able to turn his drinking on and off, Tarr said.\n\"Sometimes he couldn't turn it off. That's when he got in trouble,\" she said.\nDIDN'T SEEK CREDIT FOR MILITARY SERVICE\nAfter he graduated from Aspen High School, Will went to culinary school in Miami, but changed direction after one semester. He joined the 82nd Airborne Division in 2004. Popinchalk said people were proud of him for making that decision. Clapper said it was viewed as a wise move to help Will find direction.\n\"I think that structure was good for him,\" she said.\nWill helped provide aid in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. He was at the Superdome, where an evacuation center was located, and helped with door-to-door searches. Will got out of the military in 2007. Some of his friends went on to serve and give their lives in combat in the Middle East, according to the family. That may have led to survivor's guilt, Geraldine said.\nGeraldine and Billy said Will didn't like it while he was in the service and in uniform when people would come up and thank him for his service and call him a hero. After he got out, he didn't like to take credit for serving.\n\"He would say, 'Just because you're in uniform doesn't mean you're a hero,'\" Billy said.\nAfter his military service, Will spent time in San Diego and a handful of other places before returning to Aspen in 2011. He was most recently working at the Aspen Meadows as a bellman. He met Tarr at the Meadows, where she works as a bartender. Tarr quickly found the endearing traits of Will.\n\"He was just amazing and sweet and caring,\" she said.\nLIKE TO HEAR ABOUT THE 'OLD DAYS'\nBilly Graham was a hard-playing, hard-partying surfer in La Jolla, California, in the 1950s. He came to Aspen in 1960 to visit a friend and never left.\nGeraldine came to Aspen in the 1970s and worked at some of the legendary old bars. The two met at The Pub, a rough-and-tumble joint in the basement of the Wheeler Opera House.\nWill liked to pump Billy for information about the early surfing scene in California and he liked to hear stories from both of his parents from Aspen's wild 1960s and '70s.\n\"He had some wild shoes to fill \u2014 and he did a good job of it,\" Geraldine said. Will liked to fist fight, and his friends acknowledged he could \"start a scene.\" But he had his soft side. He competed with Wes to some degree for Geraldine's attention, according to Tarr.\nKiernan said the party atmosphere that youngsters are exposed to in Aspen makes an impression.\n\"You see it from a young age. It's hard,\" he said.\nHe recalled that as teenagers, they used to hike up Smuggler Mountain with beer and watch the sunset.\n\"He had such fond memories, when things got hard, he turned back to it again,\" Kiernan said.\nWAITING FOR WILL TO COME HOME\nGeraldine said getting pregnant with Will was the best thing to happen to her because it got her out of the party scene.\n\"I always say Will saved my life,\" Geraldine said. \"He saved my life and now he's trying to kill me.\"\nThe grief over not finding Will's body is nearly unbearable. The family needs closure. They haven't been able to return to their home. The memories are too raw.\nWill headed up to the Punchbowl sometime after 2 p.m. June 4 on a warm Thursday afternoon. He left a message for Tarr asking her to meet him up there and had invited other friends. Police reports said an employee at City Market in Aspen called authorities in the early afternoon of June 4 with a report of a potentially drunken driver leaving the establishment. The Grahams and Tarr said it is conjecture as to whether he had been drinking. They said Pitkin County sheriff's deputies later found 13 unopened beers at his car parked at the Grottos parking site near the Punchbowl. What happened that afternoon is unknown. It's clear that Will was intimately familiar with the Punchbowl.\nKiernan estimated that he, Will and other friends visited the Punchbowl hundreds of times while growing up. They would sometimes travel up before the winter closure gate on Highway 82 was opened. They would jump in the water when snow still lined the banks, despite the frigid temperatures. They didn't shy away from high water. This year, the flows in the upper Roaring Fork River are the highest since the late 1990s, though they drop somewhat during the day and increase at night, when the runoff makes it off the mountains.\nhis confidence and athletic ability, he always thought he could do it,\" Kiernan said of jumping into the Punchbowl and getting out. \"He was a hell of an athlete.\"\nTarr agrees that her boyfriend jumped in the water with every intention of getting out.\n\"If he jumped in there, he was happy,\" she said.\nTarr and the Grahams don't believe Will was trying to commit suicide or that he staged a disappearance to start a new chapter in his life.\n\"He adored me and was always worried about me,\" Geraldine said.\nHe was in the process of meeting obligations to clear up prior criminal proceedings against him, they noted. Geraldine said her son told Tarr he was trying to find his passion and direction in life.\n\"He was confused because he couldn't figure out what to do,\" she said.\nThe Grahams think with Tarr's influence, Will was heading in the right direction.\n\"He was figuring all that out. He was taking steps,\" Geraldine said.\nNow, they just want Will to be found.\n\"That's what we're all wanting, for Will to come home,\" Clapper said.",

        "title": "A-State Rugby Program Founder Curt Huckaby Dies",
        "raw_content": "A-State Rugby Program Founder Curt Huckaby Dies\nJONESBORO \u2014 Curt Huckaby, the founder of Arkansas State University\u2019s successful and nationally ranked rugby program, died Tuesday, June 21. Huckaby also served as a Craighead County District Court judge and was an attorney. Arrangements have been announced by Emerson Funeral Home.\n\u201cOur deep condolences go to the Huckaby family. Curt Huckaby is a legend in collegiate rugby for his contributions to the sport and his dedication to the young men who play,\u201d said Dr. Tim Hudson, chancellor at Arkansas State. \u201cHis work promoting and guiding the Arkansas State Rugby Club is well-known in our community, but he also served as an ambassador for the sport and the university across the Mid-South as a member of USA Rugby committees. He made a positive difference for lots of people and had the courage of his convictions. He will be greatly missed.\u201d\nIn May, the A-State Board of Trustees approved the changing of the rugby playing field name to Curt Huckaby Field. Board members signed a resolution recognizing significant contributions by Huckaby to Arkansas State.\nIn 2014, former Life University coach Dan Payne approached Huckaby's son Matt about creating the Curt Huckaby Cup and the two teams playing for it each year. The winning team will keep the cup for a year until the two played each other again. Engraved on the cup are the words \"Curt Huckaby Cup \u2014 Make a difference every day for as long as you can.\"\nHuckaby served as the program\u2019s only head coach for 14 years, all on a volunteer basis, before stepping down in 2010. At that time, his son Matt was named as the head coach, but Curt continued to help the program in recruiting, player development, marketing, donor development, fundraising and program advancement.\n\"Curt was a very kind and compassionate person,\" added Dr. Rick Striping, vice chancellor for Student Affairs. \"He cared deeply about young people. This was evident by his development of a nationally and internationally known rugby team. He had a passion for the sport,but most importantly, the brotherhood that became a signature of Curt Huckaby. The players worked hard on and off the field developing character, nurtured and guided by a man who led by example. The comments seen on social media serve as a testament to Curt.\n\"Players,coaches and friends from the United States mourn in this loss. But his work was not confined to the U.S. borders. The rugby world of South Africa, New Zealand and Europe recognize the name Curt Huckaby. Arkansas State University has lost a great supporter, mentor to students and simply good friend to many.\"\nThe senior Huckaby ended his coaching career at A-State with a record of 183-44-1 that includes a Division II record of 156-41 and a Division 1 mark of 27-3-1.\nHis team successes include a Division II plate national championship in 2000, runner-up finishes in the Division II national championship in 2001, 2004 and 2006, and Elite Eight finalist every season except one (2005) in the National Division II Championship. His teams were perennially ranked in the Top 25 collegiate teams across the nation.\nSeveral years ago, Huckaby was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral schlerosis, known as Lou Gehrig\u2019s disease.\nCurt Huckaby",

        "raw_content": "How do I choose the Best Acquisition Services?\nIn two words \u2013 very carefully!\nAcquisition Services are the key ingredient in determining the success of a Merger & Acquisition process. Acquisition service providers are on the front lines.\nThey are first point of contact with potential merger partners and are building relationships with brokers who are selling companies.\nIf they present your company well and know how to interact with the seller, you will be considered a desirable acquirer. Acquisition Services are a function of expertise and professionalism.\nIf a firm has been in the M&A industry for many years, chances are they know how to position their clients and how to have intelligent, probing conversations. If a firm is new, they are less likely to know how to do this.\nQuality acquisition service providers do several important things \u2013 they generate acquisition opportunities, they qualify those opportunities and they communicate M&A credibility to the prospect. With expert communication, a company can be perceived as a highly sophisticated and experienced acquirer.\nYour acquisition service provider needs to be able to assess the competitiveness of a given deal. The acquisition world is a game of low probabilities so you need to have a lot of balls in the air.\nHaving a highly experienced acquisition service provider can pay huge dividends for your company. Often this comes in form of heavy deal flow and attractively priced acquisitions.",

Six teams, who were part of a wider group of over 100 delegates from 13 countries in Africa and Australia, pitched innovative ideas to a three-judge panel, who selected the finalists. This investment will be used to fund cross-country research and innovation projects, incorporating private sector engagement. The projects are part of a strong network of changemakers in agricultural production and food security, created through collaborations formed during the symposium.\nOne of the projects seeks to enhance the productivity of strategic crops in water shed areas in Ethiopia, Kenya and Madagascar by introducing soil restoration and crop technologies. The team hopes to pilot teff (a food grain found in Ethiopia) and rice production, and use a water shed management approach to increase crop productivity and improve soil fertility.\nThe second initiative will explore the use of ecological approaches to integrating small livestock and vegetable production for household food and nutrition security. Recognising that many farmers focus solely on vegetable production or livestock, the project hopes to reduce environmental pollution and inspire the inclusion of animal and vegetable food sources in at least one meal, a day, among target population and increase income generation through the sale of small surplus livestock and produced vegetable. The initiative targets communities living in Denda District (Ethiopia), Ambatondrazaka District (Madagascar) and the Tana River Basin (Kenya).\nThe third initiative will be a situational analysis to improve horticultural waste management practices through collaborative knowledge sharing. The team will characterise waste generated in mango, oranges and banana value chains in Kenya, Uganda and Nigeria. They will examine and document the existing management practices and disseminate findings to stakeholders across participating countries. The team has secured a matching grant of USD 10,000 from the Kwale-based Base Titanium mining company, in Kenya. This additional investment highlights the important role that private sector plays in enhancing food security. It guides the creation of policies and investing in the implementation of these, in line with the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and more specifically the Sustainable Development Goal #2 which aims to end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.\nKeynote speakers at the opening plenary included Her Excellency Alison Chartres \u2013 Australian High Commissioner to Kenya; Prof Hamadi Boga- Principal Secretary, Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation; and Prof Peter Mbithi- Vice-Chancellor, University of Nairobi. They all reiterated the need to accelerate investment in an agricultural revolution that allows the development of innovative technologies and practices in Africa through tested research. They also affirmed that the investments would guarantee not only nutrition, but also food security, job creation and poverty reduction in a sustainable manner. The symposium also explored lessons from Australia and Africa, with panels focusing on technological advancements, private sector contribution, and the integration of gender for agricultural impact.\nTo download the presentations from the symposium click here:\nhttp://aaun.edu.au/2018/03/agricultural-research-symposium-2018-report/\n*Each cross-country teams comprised of members from:\nAustralia, Ethopia, Kenya and Madagascar\nAustralia, Canada, Ghana, Mozambique and Zimbabwe\nAustralia, Cameroon, Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe",

Curator: Judit Gell\u00e9r. Open to the public: 2017.03.21. \u2013 04.24.\nA 6-page interview on \"Dirty Work\" is available in Issue No9 of Philosophy Mag.\n\"Dirty work usually means something people don\u2019t like to deal with, although the processing and transforming of the excess, the surplus, as well as the transformation itself, are all essential elements of any circulation. The visual noise created by the mass media, the television, the Internet and street advertisements influences our everyday lives just as the language and tools of contemporary visual art. The simplification of the creation and the production of, as well as the easy access to technical images have brought about an excess of images, and thus a creation of a surplus. (...)\nB\u00e1lint R\u00e1d\u00f3czy reflects upon the economic and social problems caused by globalization and certain aspects and gestures of the contemporary artistic practice. His photographs depict trash and waste, which \u2013 removed from their original context \u2013 appear as aesthetic spectacles and raise existential questions like what we find disposable, what becomes redundant, what we consider to be of value, and what just dirt is. The captions reflect on the current state of the art and creation itself. (...)\nThe usage of the billboard as a medium evokes the feeling of momentariness, the short period we can spend with taking in the images. Meanwhile, the performance itself, the putting up of the posters, is a long and slow process, during which the artist gets into direct contact with the pictures. In the course of mounting the layers on each other, each picture and the texts are visible only for a short time, which does not make it possible to ponder over them, and so the layers being laid on each other represent the process of quick consumption and transitoriness. (...)\nThe envelope-pushing performance/installation Dirty Work prompts reflection and self-reflection while presenting a covert criticism of consumer society, the specific medium, and the elitist art-market. According to the creative statement of B\u00e1lint R\u00e1d\u00f3czy, \u201cWaste has an ability to mirror human states of mind, reflect upon the nature of knowledge, logic, ethics, epistemology, transience, continuity, and imperfections. What I do is not criticism. I just make this aspect of our civilization visible by showing the other side of the coin, which in turn may provide its own criticism.\u201d\nJudit Gell\u00e9r, curator\nGuided tour to \"Dirty Work\" with curator Judit Gell\u00e9r and myself \u2014 22 April 2017 12:30",

This is their first visit to India!\nRejected Cartoons is a five-piece band from Kolkata currently based in Mumbai. As far as genre is concerned, they do not like to stick to one form of music as each member brings their own set of influences and musical backgrounds to the table. The band is multilingual and performs in English, Hindi and a few other regional languages as and when they find the music to their taste! They are heavily influenced by artists like Mumford& Sons, Hooverphonic, Glass Animals, Vishal Bhardwaj, A.R. Rahman, Coldplay, Tame Impala, Amit Trivedy, etc. and incorporate a lot of folk instruments like mandolin, dotara, mandira, sitar etc. in their music. Four out of five of them are vocalists and so they harmonize on most of the songs while one of them takes the lead.",

        "raw_content": "Texas Holdem poker (also known as simply \"Holdem\") is the most popular poker room game played throughout the world in the late 20th century and thus far in the 21st century.\nOn this page I will cover basic Texas Holdem poker rules, according to the archives maintained in our Holdem rules library, of which I am the official custodian.\nI would also strongly encourage you to read the rules at the poker room where you are playing, as the rules may differ slightly from those written on this page.\npacificpoker.com : the best poker room for playing Texas Holdem\nHoldem Poker Rules for Round One\nThe table starts of with the first person sitting on the table as the dealer and the next player posting the \"small blind\", which is equal to half of the lower stake. The player to the left of the small blind is required to post the \"big blind\", which is equal to the lower stake limit. All the blinds in Texas Holdem poker are considered live bets and the players who posted them have the option of checking, calling, raising or folding when the betting returns to their position.\nAfter the blinds have been placed, the down cards (also called \"hole cards\") are dealt to each active player. In Holdem, 2 cards are dealt to each of the players, after which the first betting round starts. The player to the left of the player who placed the big blind starts the betting for the round. Each player then has the option to place his bet in the first round, which is set at the lower limit of the stakes structure. For example in a $10/$20 Holdem game, value of each bet is $10 for the first round, and the value of a raise is $20.\nEach player has the following options \u2013 Bet, Call, Raise, or Fold. The first player (left of the Big Blind) to act (in Round One) would get the Bet, Call, Raise, and Fold options. Subsequent players would get the options of Call, Raise, and Fold. To Call is to bet the same as what the previous player has bet. A Raise action raises whatever was the Bet or Call amount of the previous player and is calculated based on the value of the previous bet amount. Until all players have placed equal amounts in the pot, the betting will continue. Typically, a maximum of four bets, which includes one bet and three raises, are allowed for each betting round per player.\nAfter Round One of betting is over, the \"Flop\" (the first three cards of the \"community\") is dealt. The community cards are common to all of the players participating in the hand.\nHoldem Poker Rules for Round Two\nAfter the Flop (and in each subsequent betting round), the first active player left of the button (for online poker rooms) is first to act, using the same procedures as in Round One above. The fourth community card is then dealt \u2013 this is known as the \"Turn\".\nHoldem Poker Rules for Round Three\nThe third round also follows the same procedures as in Round One above, however, bets and raises are now limited to the UPPER limit of the stake structure. For example in a $10/$20 Holdem game, value of each bet is now $20, and the value of a raise is $40. The fifth community card is then dealt \u2013 this is known as the \"River\".\nHoldem Poker Rules for Round Four\nThe fourth round also follows the same procedures as in Round One above, and bets and raises are the same as in Round Three (limited to the UPPER limit of the stake structure).\nOccasionally, a player may also have the option to \u201cCheck\u201d, in which the player can pass his turn without placing a bet. This option would not always be available to the player, and the player MUST equal the amount of bet placed by any other players for each round in the hand.\npacificpoker.com : learn how to play Texas Holdem on their free tables\nTexas Holdem Poker Games\nMost poker rooms in our directory offer three types of Holdem games:\n1) Limit Hold'em - there is a specific betting limit for each game and on each round of betting),\n2) Pot Limit Hold'em - a player can bet what is in the pot,\n3) No Limit Hold'em - a player can bet all of his chips at any time.\nFor the minimum and maximum eligible raises in effect for your poker games, refer to the specific rules at each poker room.",

        "raw_content": "The Rise and Fall of Cesar Birotteau; The Secrets of a Princess; The Middle Classes (Classic Reprint)\nExcerpt from The Rise and Fall of Cesar Birotteau; The Secrets of a Princess; The Middle Classes The action and characters also are interesting, if not, on the whole, quite artistically probable. It will be observed that the hero does a little underlie the constant objection of the Devil's Advocate to Balzac, that almost every one of his good characters is more or less of a fool. Even a keen man of business may, of course, be easily outwitted in a game of pure speculation - a proposition which we need not go to France, or examine the long list of crashes from the ficti tious terrains de la Madeleine to the real Panama, in order to establish. And a very keen man of business may be im prudently expensive in a combined fit of personal vanity and afiection for his family, But it is a little of a stretch on the credulity of the reader to represent a plodding tradesmen like Birotteau, who, as we are expressly told, had an old fashioned horror of paper, as not merely incurring large speculative obligations, but as stripping himself of every rap of ready money while exposing himself to an unusual demand for it. The picture of his going a-borrowing and a-sorrowing is drawn with great power and with much vivacity; but here, too, his simplicity is a thought exaggerated. And Con stance' s afiection for, and fidelity to, an unattractive man, whom she saw to be little better than a fool, may be thought improbable in an ideal beauty with a clear head, while some may even say that ideal beauties are almost always extremely stupid. Yet, again, in Cesarine, Momus may point to that superficiality and vagueness which usually, if not always, mar Balzac's treatment of an honest girl.

The scope of the project will be decided between each student and his/her supervisor. It is anticipated that students will emerge from the program with basic skills in formulating and testing hypotheses, experimental design, data analysis and presentation, critical evaluation of published work and scientific writing; all of the skills required of a good graduate student. The project serves only as a specific focus on which to develop these skills. It is not essential that the project produce positive results leading to clear, definitive conclusions. Projects may yield negative results or no clear results at all. This is the nature of scientific research. It is expected, however, that each project will address a clearly defined hypothesis and that students will learn much about the scientific method in the process of completing the project. The mark in this course will be assigned based on the Final Thesis Examination.\nFor the Final Examination, students are required to submit a written thesis. This must be submitted at least one week prior to the Final Examination. The Final Examination will consist of a short (15 to 20 minute) presentation by the student of the major findings of his/her work, followed by a round of questioning by the Committee members. The Committee Chair will not normally ask questions and the Supervisor will be allowed to ask questions last. The exam should not exceed 60 to 90 minutes in length. All final examinations will be held between April 2nd and 30th. The actual date of the examination will have to be negotiated based on the schedules of all Committee members once the Committees have been set up.\nCommittee members will assign a number grade to the Thesis based on:\n1) the written thesis\n2) the oral presentation\nThe Chair will not normally assign a grade but will simply run the examination and compile the final grade.\nEvaluation of the Honours Thesis and Defense is based on not only the ability of the student to master technical skills and perform the mechanical work of data collection but also the extent to which the student has mastered the basic skills required of a good scientist.\nThus, all Honours students should be prepared to 1) submit a well written thesis in the proper scientific format, 2) present a well delivered research talk, and 3) answer questions of both a general and specific nature pertaining to their research project.\nBiology 447, \u201cPrinciples and Methodology in Biological Research II\u201d is a companion course for Biology 449. It is designed to assist students during their research project and to prepare them for their Honour\u2019s Thesis Defense. A separate grade is given for this course based on a variety of assignments and on class participation.\nSeptember, 4th Year\nAt this point, all students should be thinking of specific deadlines for the various stages of completion of their Honours Thesis. These include:\n\u2013 Completion of literature review\n\u2013 Completion of experiments and/or data collection\n\u2013 Completion of data analysis\n\u2013 Preparation of data for presentation (graphs, tables, etc.)\n\u2013 Completion of first draft of thesis (submit to supervisors)\n\u2013 Completion of final draft of thesis (submit to examining committee)\nFor students only beginning their Thesis projects in September of their 4th year, a realistic appraisal of these deadlines is even more critical.\nThe Examining Committee for each student will consist of the Thesis Supervisor, one Nominee chosen by the Student and Supervisor (with an in depth knowledge of the student\u2019s research area), and one or two Members chosen from the Botany or Zoology Departments. The members chosen to sit on any given committee will not necessarily work in the student\u2019s research field, but will be chosen simply to assess the overall scientific ability of the student). One of the course coordinators for Biology 449 will serve as the Chair of the Examining Committee.\n\u2013 If a student has a co-supervisor they may also be on the committee, but they may not act as the Nominee chosen by the student and supervisor, because the Nominee must be impartial to the thesis.\nGuidelines for BIOL 449 Thesis Writing:\nGuidelines for the Introduction of an Honours Thesis\nGuidelines for Materials and Methods Section of an Honours Thesis",

        "raw_content": "Princeton Nobel Prize Winner Leads Study of Developmental Transition of Embryo Beginning to Use Own Genes Rather Than Mom\u2019s\nA new study from Princeton University sheds light on the handing over of genetic control from mother to offspring early in development. Learning how organisms manage this transition could help researchers understand larger questions about how embryos regulate cell division and differentiation into new types of cells. The study, published in the March 12 issue of the prestigious journal Cell, provides new insight into the mechanism for this genetic hand-off, which happens within hours of fertilization, when the newly fertilized egg is called a zygote. \"At the beginning, everything the embryo needs to survive is provided by mom, but eventually that stuff runs out, and the embryo needs to start making its own proteins and cellular machinery,\" said Princeton postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Molecular Biology and first author Shelby Blythe, Ph.D. \"We wanted to find out what controls that transition.\" Dr. Blythe conducted the study with senior author Dr. Eric Wieschaus (photo), Princeton's Squibb Professor in Molecular Biology, Professor of Molecular Biology and the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) investigator, and a 1995 Nobel laureate in physiology or medicine for \u201cdiscoveries concerning the genetic control of early development.\u201d Researchers have known that in most animals, a newly fertilized egg cell divides rapidly, producing exact copies of itself using gene products supplied by the mother. After a short while, this rapid cell division pauses, and when it restarts, the embryonic DNA takes control and the cells divide much more slowly, differentiating into new cell types that are needed for the body's organs and systems. To find out what controls this maternal to zygotic transition, also called the midblastula transition (MBT), Dr.\nDetailed Haplotype Map of 62 Lines of Wheat from Around the World Established\nKansas State University scientists, together with multiple collaborators, have released findings of a complex, two-year study of the genomic diversity of wheat that creates an important foundation for future improvements in wheat around the world. The scientists\u2019 work has produced the first haplotype map of wheat that provides detailed descriptions of genetic differences in a worldwide sample of wheat lines. In genetics, a haplotype map is a powerful tool for transferring sequence-level variation to multiple gene mapping projects. \"All of these new, genomic-based strategies of breeding promise to significantly accelerate breeding cycles and shorten release time of future wheat varieties,\" said Dr. Eduard Akhunov, Associate Professor of Plant Pathology and the project's leader. Plant scientists often look at the genetic makeup of an organism to breed new varieties for specific, desirable traits, such as drought, pest or disease resistance. Dr. Akhunov said the haplotype map gives scientists quick access to rich, genetic variation data that increases the precision of mapping genes in the wheat genome, and improves scientists' ability to select the best lines in breeding trials. Dr. Akhunov's research associates, Dr. Katherine Jordan and Dr. Shichen Wang, are lead authors of the study, which is titled \"A Haplotype Map of Allohexaploid Wheat Reveals Distinct Patterns of Selection on Homoeologous Genomes,\" and which was published online on February 26, 2015 in Genome Biology. The article will be published in print in an upcoming issue of that same journal. The project was coordinated through the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium, and included groups in Canada, Australia, the U.K., and the U.S. Much of the work took place in Kansas State University's Integrated Genomics Facility.\nTriple Combination Therapy for Advanced Melanoma Shows Promise\nUCLA cancer researchers have found that a new triple combination therapy shows promising signs of more effectively controlling advanced melanoma than previous treatments, and also shows fewer side effects. An estimated 70,000 new cases of metastatic melanoma are diagnosed each year in the United States, and of those, 8,000 people will die of the disease. About 50 percent of the total men and women diagnosed with this cancer have a mutated protein called a BRAF mutation, which, in most cases, allows melanoma to eventually build up a resistance to many drug therapies. In the new study, led by UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center member Dr. Antoni Ribas and colleague Dr. Siwen Hu-Lieskovan, UCLA scientists combined targeted therapies utilizing the BRAF inhibitor drug dabrafenib and the MEK inhibitor drug trametinib, together with immunotherapy, which is treatment that uses a person\u2019s own immune system to help fight cancer. The results were published online on March 18, 2015 in Science Translational Medicine. Dabrafenib causes cancerous tumors to shrink in people whose metastatic melanoma has a BRAF gene mutation. Trametinib prevents the disturbance of the MAPK/ERK pathway that dabrafenib causes on cells without the BRAF mutation. That disturbance causes overactive cells to form a different type of skin cancer. The combination of the three therapies, which was shown to be a more effective treatment, works by sensitizing a person\u2019s own immune system to enhance immunotherapy, and reducing the probability of the melanoma eventually developing resistance.\nCo-Infection with Milder Related Parasite Appears to Partially Protect African Cattle from Deadly Fever Caused by Tick-Borne Theileria parva; Finding May Provide Lesson for Malaria and Other Parasite-Caused Diseases\nAfrican cattle infected with a lethal parasite that kills one million cows per year are less likely to die when co-infected with the parasite's milder cousin, according to a new study published online on March 20, 2015 in an open-access article in Science Advances. The findings suggest that \"fighting fire with fire\" is a strategy that might work against a range of parasitic diseases. The immediate implications are for the battle in Africa against a tick-borne cattle-killing parasite, Theileria parva, which causes a disease called East Coast fever. The disease kills one cow every 30 seconds and claims US $300 million in livestock losses each year, mostly from poor herders who can scarcely afford to lose even a single animal. \"Our results suggest seeking a simple vaccine that could protect cows from East Coast fever by inoculating them with a related, but far less harmful, parasite,\" said lead author Dr. Mark Woolhouse, who is with the University of Edinburgh, in the United Kingdom. \"It has been suggested that a similar process might be at work in malaria, where infection with the less harmful Plasmodium vivax parasite may protect people from the Plasmodium falciparum parasite that kills almost 600,000 people each year.\" The study, titled \u201cCo-Infections Determine Patterns of Mortality in a Population Exposed to Parasite Infections,\u201d was conducted as part of an Infectious Diseases of East African Livestock (IDEAL) project, a multi-partner study that includes the Nairobi-based International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI). The project followed more than 500 indigenous East African shorthorn zebu calves during their first year of life. The calves live in a part of Western Kenya where they are routinely exposed to both the T. parva parasite and its less aggressive relatives. T.\nNewly Discovered Methionine-Based Antioxidant System Can Sustain Liver When the Two Previously Known Systems Fail\nScientists from Montana State University (MSU) and Sweden have discovered an antioxidant system that helps sustain the liver when other systems are missing or compromised. Like a generator kicking in when the power fails or an understudy taking the stage when a lead actor is sick, the newly found system steps up during a crisis. It's fueled by methionine, an amino acid that can't be manufactured in the body and people can only obtain by eating protein. \"This is an important finding,\" said Dr. Ed Schmidt, a professor in MSU's Department of Microbiology and Immunology and co-author of a newly published study in Nature Communications. The article is titled \u201cDietary Methionine Can Sustain Cytosolic Redox Homeostasis in the Mouse Liver.\u201d \"It tells us about humans and all living things. It's an alternative way to maintain the balance you need in your cells to be alive.\" Dr. Schmidt and his collaborators at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm published their findings online on March 20, 2015 in Nature Communications. Some vitamins and supplements act as antioxidants, Dr. Schmidt said. These antioxidants help protect cells from the damage that can lead to aging, cancers, and inflammatory diseases. However, vitamins and supplements cannot replace two known natural systems in liver cells: the thioredoxin and glutathione systems.\nDNA Studies Show Sumatran Tiger Is Closest Living Relative of Extinct Bali and Javan Tigers\nStephen O'Brien (photo), Ph.D., the CSO of the Theodosius Dobzhansky Center for Genome Bioinformatics, St. Petersburg State University (Russia) and Director of Research for Florida\u2019s Nova Southeastern University\u2019s (NSU's) Office of Research and Technology Transfer, is a world-renowned geneticist, and he was a prominent member of a team of research scientists from China, the United Kingdom, Israel, Russia, and Qatar that examined the genetic make-up of tigers over a ten-year period. The study, which was published online on March 8, 2015 in the Journal of Heredity and will appear in the print edition May 1, 2015, describes DNA signatures for 145 individual tigers, including \"voucher specimens\" of tigers from verified geographic origins including Eurasian museum specimens that represent extinct subspecies. The article is titled \u201cGenetic Ancestry of the Extinct Javan and Bali Tigers.\u201d Their study's first results appeared in 2004 and showed Malayan tigers splitting from their Indochinese counterpart as a distinct, new fifth-living tiger subspecies. The latest results show that extinct Javan (1980s) and Bali (1940s) tigers were nearly indistinguishable from a molecular standpoint from existing Sumatran tigers, just as the extinct Caspian tigers are nearly identical to surviving Amur tiger subspecies. \"These results are important to help craft management strategies for protecting each surviving subspecies of tiger and stabilizing the march toward extinction that they are clearly on,\" Dr. O'Brien said. \"These markers also provide powerful tools for forensic identification of subspecies in captive populations, as well as trafficked bones and skins in illegal trade enforcement.\"\nGlowing Mushrooms Use Bioluminescence to Attract Insects to Spread Fungal Spores; Light Controlled by Circadian Clock\nDid you know that there are mushrooms that actually glow? Aristotle was aware of this intriguing fact more than 2,000 years ago. He also was the first person to ask a simple question in print: Why? Now, researchers reporting online in Current Biology on March 19, 2015 finally have a good answer. The title of the article is \u201cCircadian Control Sheds Light on Fungal Bioluminescence.\" The light emitted from those fungi attracts the attention of insects, including beetles, flies, wasps, and ants. Those insect visitors are apparently good for the fungi because they spread the fungal spores around. The new study also shows that the mushrooms' bioluminescence is under the control of the circadian clock. In fact, it was that discovery that led the researchers to suspect that the mushrooms' light must serve some useful purpose. \"Regulation implies an adaptive function for bioluminescence,\" explains Dr. Jay Dunlap of Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine. \"It appears that fungi make light so they are noticed by insects that can help the fungus colonize new habitats,\" says Dr. Cassius Stevani of Brazil's Instituto de Qu\u00edmica-Universidade de S\u00e3o Paulo. The circadian control of bioluminescence makes the process more efficient. There are many examples of living things that generate light in various ways. Among bioluminescent organisms, fungi are the rarest and least well understood. Only 71 of more than 100,000 described fungal species produce green light in a biochemical process that requires oxygen and energy. Researchers had believed in most cases that fungi produce light around the clock, suggesting that perhaps it was a simple, if expensive, metabolic byproduct. The new work led by Dr. Dunlap and Dr.\nPDE-9 Enzyme Is Molecular Culprit in Breakdown of Second Signaling Pathway Triggering Heart Failure; Drugs Inhibiting PDE-9 Already in Testing for Alzheimer's\nWorking with lab animals and human heart cells, scientists from Johns Hopkins and other institutions have identified what they describe as \"the long-sought culprit\" in the mystery behind a cell-signaling breakdown that triggers heart failure. The condition, which affects nearly 6 million Americans and 23 million people worldwide, is marked by progressive weakening and stiffening of the heart muscle and the organ's gradual loss of blood-pumping ability. The research results, published online on March 18, 2015 in Nature, reveal that an enzyme called PDE-9 (image) interferes with the body's natural \"braking\" system needed to neutralize stress on the heart. The title of the Nature article is \u201cPhosphodiesterase 9A Controls Nitric-Oxide-Independent cGMP and Hypertrophic Heart Disease.\u201d The experiments demonstrated that the PDE-9 enzyme wreaks havoc by gobbling up a signaling molecule, cGMP, which normally stimulates the production of a heart-protective protein called PKG, known to shield the heart muscle from the ravages of disease-causing stress, such as long-standing high blood pressure. Naturally found in the gut, kidneys, and brain, PDE-9 is already a prime suspect in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's, the researchers say. But the new study shows the enzyme's footprints are also present in heart cells and are markedly elevated in patients with heart failure -- evidence that PDE-9 is a multi-tasking \"offender\" and a key instigator of heart muscle demise, the researchers say. To understand the enzyme's role, the scientists exploited the knowledge that heart muscle health is safeguarded by two signaling pathways.\nMeMed Test Accurately and Rapidly Distinguishes Between Acute Bacterial and Viral Infections; Offers Chance to Avoid Both Over- and Under-Prescription of Antibiotics\nOn March 19, 2015, MeMed, Ltd. (http://www.me-med.com/), headquartered in Israel, announced publication of the results of a large multicenter prospective clinical study that validates the ability of the company\u2019s ImmunoXpert\u2122 in-vitro diagnostic blood test to determine whether a patient has an acute bacterial or viral infection. The study enrolled more than 1,000 patients and the results were published online on March 18, 2015 in the open-access journal PLOS ONE. The article is titled \u201cA Novel Host-Proteome Signature for Distinguishing between Acute Bacterial and Viral Infections.\u201d Unlike most infectious disease diagnostics that rely on direct pathogen detection, MeMed\u2019s assay decodes the body's immune response to accurately characterize the cause of the infection. Bacterial and viral infections are often clinically indistinguishable, leading to antibiotic overuse and contributing to the spread of antibiotic resistance, which the World Health Organization says is approaching crisis proportions. Paradoxically, the inability to rapidly differentiate infections also results in the underuse of antibiotics, estimated to occur in 20-40% of all bacterial infections, putting patients at risk of complications and increasing healthcare costs. MeMed researchers developed the ImmunoXpert test to accurately distinguish between bacterial and viral infections, with the goal of improving patient management by providing physicians with information that enables them to reduce both the overuse and underuse of antibiotics. Eran Eden, Ph.D., the CEO of MeMed, noted, \"Antibiotic misuse is a pressing public health concern, with devastating healthcare and economic consequences. Rapid, accurate, and actionable diagnostic tools are an important part of the solution because they can aid physicians in making better informed treatment decisions.\nAntihypertensive Drug (Spirolactone) Blocks Mineralocorticoid Receptors and Reduces Side Effects of Corticosteroid-Based Creams Used to Treat Certain Skin Diseases\nBasic research on blood pressure has led researchers from Inserm (Inserm Unit 1138, \"Cordeliers Research Centre\") in France to obtain unexpected results: drugs used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) reduce side effects from corticosteroid-based creams used to treat certain skin diseases. This work was published online on February 10, 2015 in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology and the article is titled \u201cTopical Mineralocorticoid Receptor Blockade Limits Glucocorticoid-Induced Epidermal Atrophy in Human Skin.\u201d Corticosteroid-based dermatological creams are indicated for the symptomatic treatment of inflammatory skin conditions, such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, for example. However, they have frequent side effects, such as a slight burning sensation, and very often end by inducing skin atrophy (thinning of the skin, which becomes fragile), which is inconvenient for the patient, and for which there is presently no treatment. The researchers from Inserm formulated a hypothesis whereby this harmful effect might be related to the inappropriate activation by these creams of mineralocorticoid receptors located in the epidermis. These receptors, which are present in the kidney, heart, eye, and certain neurons in particular, reacted with aldosterone, a hormone that regulates the blood pressure. Moreover, previous studies also showed them to be highly sensitive to corticosteroids. Application of corticosteroids to cultured skin causes it to become thinner: in six days, the thickness of the epidermis was reduced by one-third. The researchers then induced a pharmacological blockade of the receptors by adding specific antagonists to the corticosteroid treatment.",

        "raw_content": "Statistical Analysis of Cancer Patient Data, Looking for Mutations Shared by Similar Domains in Different Proteins, Reveals Thousands of Rare Mutations Linked with Cancer; Researchers Coin New Term \u201cOncodomain\u201d\nScientists have identified thousands of previously ignored genetic mutations that, although rare, likely contribute to cancer growth. The findings, which could help pave the way to new treatments, were published online on April 20, 2017 in the open-access journals PLOS Computational Biology. The article is titled \u201cOncodomains: A Protein Domain-Centric Framework for Analyzing Rare Variants in Tumor Samples.\u201d Cancer arises when genetic mutations in a cell cause abnormal growth that leads to a tumor. Some cancer drugs exploit this to attack tumor cells by targeting proteins that are mutated from their usual form because of mutations in the genes that encode them. However, only a fraction of all the mutations that contribute significantly to cancer have been identified. Thomas Peterson, Ph.D., at the University of Maryland, and colleagues developed a new statistical analysis approach that uses genetic data from cancer patients to find cancer-causing mutations. Unlike previous studies that focused on mutations in individual genes, the new approach addresses similar mutations shared by families of related proteins. Specifically, the new method focuses on mutations in sub-components of proteins known as protein domains. Even though different genes encode them, different proteins can share common protein domains. The new strategy draws on existing knowledge of protein domain structure and function to pinpoint locations within protein domains where mutations are more likely to be found in tumors. Using this new approach, the researchers identified thousands of rare tumor mutations that occur in the same domain location as mutations found in other proteins in other tumors-- suggesting that they are likely to be involved in cancer. \"Maybe only two patients have a mutation in a particular protein, but when you realize it is in exactly the same position within the domain as mutations in other proteins in cancer patients,\" says senior author of the study Associate Professor Maricel Kann, Ph.D., \"you realize it's important to investigate those two mutations.\" The researchers have coined the term \"oncodomain\" to refer to protein domains that are more likely to contain cancer-causing mutations. Further study of oncodomains could help inform drug development: \"Because the domains are the same across so many proteins,\" Dr. Kann says, \"it is possible that a single treatment could tackle cancers caused by a broad spectrum of mutated proteins.\"\nThis is a depiction of oncodomain hotspots found to be significantly overlapping with the active site of the protein kinase domain.

Biscan & Company of Brentwood submitting the apparent low bid of $5,415,100.\nBids were also submitted by Hardaway Construction Corp. of Nashville at $5,527,000 and R.G. Anderson Co. Inc. of Nashville at $5,575,000.\nRutherford County School Board members are expected to consider Thursday the recommendation to approve Robert S. Biscan for the lowest and best bid for the Eagleville School addition and some renovation.\nBiscan was also the successful bidder on the $3.5 million classroom addition to Eagleville School completed in 2012.\nThe county schools engineering and construction department had projected in February 2014 a construction cost of $5.9 million for the new addition with a total project cost of $6.8 million.\nGary Clardy, county schools assistant superintendent for engineering and construction, said the Eagleville project is still on schedule with an estimated completion date of July 2015.\n\"We will try to get this approved, and then we will get ready to mobilize and go to work,\" Clardy said after the bid opening.\nThe proposed school addition will be built between the new gymnasium and the existing school. It will include an auditorium, a stage area and dressing rooms. Also, the current cafeteria dining area will be enlarged with the removal of the stage and will involve about 1,600 square feet of renovation.\nFurther, the new addition will include nine regular classrooms, two science labs, a band rehearsal room, a choir rehearsal space, offices and a book store.\nThe bids opened on Tuesday also included alternative projects, including resurfacing and restriping the parking lot and paving the driveway from the gymnasium to New Highway 99.\nThe $6.8 million project estimate includes furniture and fixtures, construction and design. Binkley-Garcia Architecture & Interior Design of Nashville designed the project.\nTo view this article on The Eagleville News website, click here.\nSource: http://www.eaglevillenews.com/bids-opened-...\n\u2190 Work underway on Melrose retail center, Mall at Green Hills space undergoes update, and moreOverall Creek Elementary School...A Gem For The City School System! \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Quick Update 8/13/15\nNot much to say here, just thought I'd give a quick update on where I am at the moment in terms of projects and ideas.\nThe other day I released another poetic short called 'An Echo' in the same vein as 'Creative Curse' from years back, and using the smoke effect from my 'Harry Potter FX Experiment'. I said in that description that I'd be trying to release more regular content, and I'm still committed to that, though writer's block has hit me harder than I expected. I'm planning on releasing a short character piece this weekend, with an old monologue I found lying around from a story idea I scrapped years ago called 'Cold Blood'. It should be a slightly darker piece than even I've usually done before, with a much more brooding and nihilistic character. I've enjoyed the opportunity to grow not just as an editor and cinematographer, but as an actor and pieces like this have been great practice.\nThe other big piece of news is I've been brought on by a friend as sort of the Visual Effects Creative Director for a small indie project called Conjurors of Composition (You can check it out on Facebook here, or Twitter here). It's an interesting idea, the tagline is \"Magic meets Poetry\", and I'll definitely be putting out updates as we make progress with that. I'm really excited, there's a lot of potential here, and the nature of the project gives a lot of creative flexibility for myself as an artist.\nI'm also getting a lot more active over on Twitter, so if you want to see some more of myself, things I like, content updates, or whatever else, you can find me over there as @BlackhartFilms.\nThanks to everyone who's been supportive over the years, and have a great day.",

It has been three years since he's been here last, and the show in Oslo will be his only performance in Norway (on this Europe tour). Otis Taylor is one of the most original performers of contemporary blues, and he has a very recognizable and personal style. Down Beat magazine considers him \"the most relevant blues artist of our time\", and the readers of Living Blues selected him \"Entertainer of The Year\" in 2004. He has also been nominated several times for Blues Music Awards, but so far he has only received the prize for \"Best Instrumentalist - banjo\" - an instrument he has \"re-invented\" for modern blues. Taylor is again nominated for this year's Blues Music Awards in several categories, and it will be a surprise if he does not get a prize for \"Best Singer\" or \"Songwriter\" in contemporary blues. Otis Taylor has, since his debut in 1997, released ten critically acclaimed albums with original songs of power and intensity.\n(Text: \u00d8. Pharo)",

        "raw_content": "Gateway School take over the Roald Dahl Museum\nOn Friday 22 November, Year 6 pupils at Gateway School enjoyed the unique opportunity to take over the Roald Dahl Museum. This was the first time the staff of the Great Missenden museum had ever handed over the reins during the national \u201cKids in Museums Takeover Day.\u201d\nThe purpose of the day was to provide the pupils with meaningful roles, working alongside staff and volunteers to participate in the life of the museum. Throughout the day groups of pupils worked with the museum\u2019s archivist, Rachel White, to curate an exhibition for the \u201cBoy\u201d gallery. This will remain on display until Christmas. At the same time, a rotation of pupils became \u2018living waxworks\u2019 around the museum while others created Roald Dahl character illustrations in Miss Honey\u2019s Classroom.\nThe highlight for many, were the pupil performances of \u201cThe Life and Books of Roald Dahl\u201d, a play written and directed by Gateway School\u2019s drama teacher, Wendy O\u2019Hare. Several performances were put on for visitors, including one for a group of 12 residents from the Abbeyfield care home in Great Missenden, who were thrilled to meet with the stars of the show, so much so that they stayed on for a cup of tea!\nThe idea to take over the Roald Dahl Museum was the joint initiative of Adam Atkinson and Denise Poor and the Education team at the museum. Together, they devised and realised a dynamic programme of ideas and activities for the day.\n\u201cTakeover Day with Gateway School was great fun and a real success. The museum and the school worked closely together and came up with some wonderful activity ideas for the day,\u201d said Amelia Foster, Director of the Museum. \u201cThis was an inspiring experience for the pupils, as well as for museum visitors and staff.\u201d\n\u201cWe strongly believe in interactive learning at Gateway School. The Museum Takeover Day provided an opportunity for the Year 6 pupils to showcase their abilities and to see how an idea became an exciting project\u201d said Headteacher, Mrs La Farge. She continued: \u201cOur students grasped every opportunity and they demonstrated what a talented group they are, I am very proud of them all. The Roald Dahl Museum Takeover Day was certainly a success and as a result of this we have also created a lasting bond with the museum and Abbeyfield home in Great Missenden.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The first film from Illumination Entertainment (founded by Chris Meledanari, the former President of 20th Century Fox Animation) the film opens to reveal the Great Pyramid of Gaza being stolen by an unknown assailant. The news travels to Gru (Steve Carell), who reveals to his yellow minions a plan that will top the stolen pyramid: shrinking the moon and holding it for ransom. The plan is deemed workable, until he reveals to the Bank of Evil's President (Will Arnett) that he lacks the shrink ray to start plan one. Gru flies to North Korea and steals a shrink ray, only to have it re-stolen by his new rival Vector (Jason Siegel). Unable to infiltrate Vector's headquarters Gru plots a scheme involving three adorable orphans.\nThe orphans -- Margo, Edith and Agnes -- are adopted by Gru, and are used to help steal the shrink ray back from Vector. What he didn't count on, though, was the bonding he would experience with the three girls, and finds that he cannot part with them; even if his assistant Dr. Nefario (Russell Brand) says that they'll distract him from his plan. Will Gru be able to steal the moon without fail while keeping watch on his newly-adopted daughters?\nDespicable Me manages to capture the sort of charm and originality that only the likes of Pixar (and, at times, Tim Burton) have been able to create. The character of Gru is a strange one to focus an entire movie on, but as the film progresses you come to realize that this supervillain of sorts is the perfect candidate to captivate an audience. His hunchbacked frame and truly jerkish mindset -- though more in the vein of an asshole than a villain -- is in itself worthy of the center stage; but it's when his frozen heart slowly melts for the three young girls that we truly see a real down-to-earth character be brought into focus. Steve Carell does an amazing job with giving a voice to Gru, and with his strange Russian/German/Kazakh accent he's barely recognizable in this role.\nThe supporting cast is also noteworthy, with Russell Brand also unrecognizable as Gru's assistant. (He sounds like a mixture of Jack Sparrow and Murdoc from Gorillaz.) Jason Siegel as the rival Vector also shines, and brings forth the balance of wacky villainy needed to differentiate the styles of madcap badness between him and Gru. The three orphans (played by Miranda Cosgrove, Dana Gaier and Elsie Fisher) bring much of the heart needed to push the warmth and innocence Despicable Me does a fabulous job showcasing. (Elsie Fisher's Agnes steals the show from Carell, and will be one of the most-talked about voice-acting roles for the rest of the year.) Finally we can't forget about those pill-shaped minions (played by the co-directors Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud), who we can expect to helm their own movie in the near-future. (Might I suggest a Minions Vs. Rabbids movie?) When the minions are on the screen viewers will be on the floor laughing their asses off. Trust me when I say that the supermarket scene is one of this year's best comedic moments.\nDespicable Me as a whole works, and from start to finish viewers can expect nothing but the best entertainment CGI animation can deliver. However an issue arose from the 3D aspect of the film, as nothing seemed to jump out on me. Perhaps it was the angle I was sitting at (or the fact that Pink Taco & I were wicked close to the movie screen), but I believe that you don't need to see this film in 3D, and instead vouch for the 2D version. Despite this misstep Despicable Me has everything kids and adults can ask for, from fart jokes for the kids to modern-day puns for the adults. Also, stay during the credits for some more menacing minion fun. You won't regret it.\n**** \u00bd (out of five)",

Sure, he\u2019d not made a good film in at least a decade, and he hadn\u2019t made a genuinely great film since Blade Runner in 1982, and even then his best work in that period came from relentlessly tinkering with those early films and making them better like the Bizarro George Lucas that he is, but this was the man that delivered the one-two punch of Alien and the aforementioned Blade Runner, and that had to mean something. Even once it became apparent that the film was tangentially related to Alien, people didn\u2019t completely lose their shit over it. After all, it was merely taking place in the same universe as that masterpiece; it wasn\u2019t a prequel or anything like that, right?",

Reality is co-created by our process of observation, from decisions we the observers make about what we choose to notice. It does not exist independent of those activities. Therefore, we cannot talk people into our version of reality because truly nothing is real for them if they haven't created it. People can only experience a proposed plan by interacting with it, by evoking its possibilities through their personal processes of observation.\"\nMargareth J. Wheatly\nThe invitation to imagine something as if it were to be true.\n(ANTI)-SLAVERY CAMPAIGN AND NON-DUALISM\nBIBLICAL QUOTES INSPIRING LAVIGERIE\n\"Where there is no distinction between slave and freeman, but Christ is all, and in all\" (Colossians 3:11).\n\"... so that God may be all in all\" (1 Corinthians 15:28).\n\"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full\" (John 10, 10).\n\u201cWhatever you do to the least of my brethren you do to me\u201d (Matt. 25:40).\nNON-DUAL SEEING: ENOUGH TO CHANGE THE WORLD\nI would like to illustrate four moral equivalencies that I see as the foundational message of Jesus. This might help us understand the whole reason for non-dualistic thinking.\n1. Jesus creates an equivalency with himself and the Father. \u201cThe Father and I are one\u201d (John 10:30). Because we made Jesus different than ourselves, we thought Jesus was just talking about himself. We did not understand Christ as the corporate personality wherein he is the stand-in for all of us. He really meant for us to follow him on this same path. We are supposed to be able to say at the end of our spiritual journey that we, too, are one with the Father.\n2. The second moral equivalency is with Jesus and other people. \u201cWhatever you do to the least of my brethren you do to me\u201d (Matt. 25:40). This is a mystical way of knowing. A dualistic mind cannot understand this thinking because dualistic thinking usually excludes those who are \u201cleast\u201d by my definition. With a non-dual mind we are able to see each and every person as an \u201cAlter Christus,\u201d another Christ.\n3. The third moral equivalency is with any person and God. \u201cThe Spirit is with you. The Spirit is in you\u201d (John 14:17). Jesus closes the gap between God and us. As St. Paul says, \u201cYou are all temples of the Holy Spirit and the Spirit dwells in you\u201d (1 Corinthians 3:16). This levels the playing field of humanity. Theologically, we are all of equal dignity and importance. Only a non-dualistic mind can get this, however. The dualistic mind will always make distinctions at a lower level and cannot usually get beyond them.\n4. The fourth moral equivalency is between yourself and any other person. \u201cIn everything, do unto others what you would have them do unto you\u201d (Matt. 7:12). How you love one person is how you love every other person, and how you love other persons is how you should love yourself, and how you love yourself is how you should love other persons!\nSuch non-dual seeing of everything really is enough to change the world.\n\"I have found in people\u2019s hearts the echo of the sentiment expressed by the ancient poet: Homo sum, et nihil humani a me alienum puto (Quote from Terence: Heautontimoroumenos, v. 77) 'I am a man and nothing of what is human is foreign to me.' It is a cry that came out from Rome and which, also, has its echo through the whole universe. I am a man; injustice towards other men revolts my heart. I am a man; oppression fills my nature with indignation. I am a man; cruelty against so many of my fellows inspires nothing but horror in me. I am a man, and what I would want done to give me freedom, honour, the sacred bonds of family, I want to do to restore family, honour, freedom to the sons and daughters of this unfortunate race.\"\nArtist: Gaia Orion\nRADICAL INTERCONNECTEDNESS AND RELATIONAL IDENTITY\n\u201cThe inner self, relationships and the world are all aspects of the same community process.\u201d\nStrategy is a high level plan to achieve one or more goals under conditions of uncertainty. Strategy generally involves setting goals, determining actions to achieve the goals, and mobilizing resources to execute the actions. A strategy describes how the ends (goals) will be achieved by the means (resources). Strategy can be intended or can emerge as a pattern of activity as the organization adapts to its environment.\nComponents of strategy:\nProfessor Richard P. Rumelt says that a good strategy has an underlying structure he calls a kernel. The kernel has three parts: 1) A diagnosis that defines or explains the nature of the challenge; 2) A guiding policy for dealing with the challenge; and 3) Coherent actions designed to carry out the guiding policy.\nStrategic planning is an organization's process of defining its strategy, or direction, and making decisions on allocating its resources to pursue this strategy.\nStrategic planning is a process and thus has inputs, activities, and outputs. It may be formal or informal and is typically iterative, with feedback loops throughout the process.\nThe way that a strategic plan is developed depends on the nature of the organization's leadership, culture of the organization, complexity of the organization's environment, size of the organization and expertise of planners.\nThe purpose of planning is not to write a plan. It is to increase your ability to serve your mission.\nOrganization and management sciences today are placing a great deal of attention to naturalistic approaches to development. One of the most prominent approaches is called \u201cself-organizing\u201d systems. These are systems that develop primarily according to certain values, rather than according to specific procedures.\nBiological systems (people, plants, animals, etc.) are fine examples of self-organizing systems. They might grow in any variety of ways \u2013 ways which are rarely sequential in nature. However, these biological systems always develop according to certain key principles or values, such as propagation of their species and self-preservation.\nWhat is an Organic Approach to Strategic Planning?\nThis is a rather unconventional approach to planning \u2013 certainly, an approach that some might argue is not strategic at all. However, the value of this approach is that it can match the nature of certain types of organizations much more closely than the traditional, linear approaches. It might even be argued that the linear approaches can even hurt these types of organizations as their members struggle to conform to a planning process that is quite contrary to their nature.\nTo become a master strategist, you must develop strategic intuition.\nThe best decision-makers in chaotic \u201cfog of war\u201d conditions seem able to call on intuition \u2013 knowing what to do without knowing why or how they know.\nPattern recognition, by the way, is a key indicator of whether someone has begun to develop a \u201cZen\u201d way of knowing about his or her field of expertise.\n\u201cHumans must first find the unified field of love and then start their thinking from that point.\u201d\nR. Rohr\n\"Humanity is going to require a substantially new way of thinking if it is going to survive. Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.\u201d\nSTRATEGIC CORE PRINCIPLES\nto achieve the Vision\n1. CHARITY: LAVIGERIE'S DYNAMIC FORCE\n\u201cIf we want to discover the dynamic force that drove Lavigerie during his campaign, we will not find it in theological principles, but in one single word which he had chosen as his Episcopal motto \u201cCharity.\u201d Above all else, Lavigerie was an apostle driven by love.\u201d\nHowever, this history also teaches us that works of charity alone cannot eliminate slavery from our society. Lavigerie himself noted this, saying: But I repeat, my dear brethren, that charity, however great it may be, will not suffice to save Africa. A more prompt, more efficacious and more decisive remedy is needed. To achieve this, therefore, works of charity have to go hand in hand with works of justice. We further learn from our Founder that evangelisation has to go hand in hand with social activism if it is to become an effective anti-slavery instrument. We need laws and social structures (cf. antislavery laws and societies / associations) to prevent and eliminate the root causes of slavery\nRichard Nnyombi\n2. CONVINCED OF VICTORY BEFOREHAND: BEGINNING WITH A \"YES OF BASIC ACCEPTANCE\"\n\u201cNobody can go off to battle unless he is fully convinced of victory beforehand. If we start without confidence, we have already lost half the battle and we bury our talents.\u201d\n\u201cThe great teachers are saying that you cannot start seeing or understanding anything if you start with \u201cNo.\u201d You have to start with a \u201cYes\u201d of basic acceptance, which means not too quickly labeling, analyzing, or categorizing things in or out, good or bad. You have to leave the field open.\u201d This is a lifetime of work and honest self-observation to stop judging or starting with \u201cno.\u201d You really know only that which you first love. Once you have learned to say a fundamental yes, later no\u2019s can be helpful and even necessary: without them, you have no protected boundaries or identity\u201d\n3. JESUS, THE DECONSTRUCTIONIST\nLink interview with Diarmuid O'Murchu >>\n\u201cThe first page of the bible is a powerful antidote to negativity. \u201cHe looked...and found it very good.\u201d With the same eyes Jesus looked at every person and he saw goodness in the most wicked.

But it takes effort and discipline to constantly return to the divine view of people and search for their basic goodness.\u201d\nLink Interview >>\nWHAT DO YOU SEE, FEEL AND THINK?\n4.

(ANTI)-SLAVERY CAMPAIGN IN AN EVOLUTIONARY UNIVERSE\n\u201cEven in the best families there are some members who go through a rough time. Community conflicts are necessary: we can\u2019t dream of a community or any human group which is free of conflicts and we must tolerate them and overcome them not by eliminating or ignoring them but by facing them. At times, we can be very cruel to each other. We are all tempted to criticise either because we think we are better or for some personal gain.\u201d\nto the Union of Superiors General\n(Rome, 27th-29th November, 2013)\n\"We can\u2019t avoid conflict but we mustn\u2019t remain stuck in it either: we need to tackle it and behave like wise people trying to find possible solutions. Patience and tenderness are the virtues we need. It is painful but it\u2019s the only way forward.\"\n9. CHARACTERISTICS OF CHANGE IN AN EVOLUTIONARY UNIVERSE\nLink interview with Joanne Lauterjung Kelly >>\n\u201cit is interesting that Jesus identifies forgiveness with breathing, the one thing that we have done constantly since we have born and will do until we die. He says God\u2019s forgiveness is like breathing. Forgiveness is not apparently something God does, it is who God is.\u201d\n10. INVISIBLE STRUCTURES (fields, systemic thinking)\nA methodology does not set out to provide solutions but offers the theoretical underpinning for understanding which method, set of methods or so called \u201cbest practices\u201d can be applied to a specific case.\nSee Butterfly Model >>\nIntegration of Practice, Theory and Research\nPrinciples of Liberation Theology in Lavigerie's Thought\n(Source: Laurenti Magesa)\nIn his struggle against the Slave Trade, Cardinal Lavigerie based much of his argument on the authority of the Scriptures and the Great Tradition of the Church, emphasizing what we would today call the hermeneutical or pastoral circle/spiral, or the process of See, Judge, Act. In this he anticipated in practice the praxis of Liberation theology which proceeds on the basis of four key moments: Insertion, Social Analysis, Theological Reflection, and Pastoral Planning.\nLavigerie's Insertion\nThe moment of insertion implies practical experience and familiarity with the situation at hand. Thus Cardinal Lavigerie did not just imagine or read about the horrors of the slave trade; as is clear in his speeches and letters, he had personal first hand experience of the trade or knew about it through his missionaries all over the continent. It was on the basis of these experiences that he gained authority to speak about the horrors of the trade with confidence. He provided in his speeches and addresses vivid illustrations of the situation so that he was uniquely able to directly touch the minds and hearts of his hearers.\nLavigerie's Social Analysis\nAs is clear from the sources available, Cardinal Lavigerie's campaign demonstrated the social and moral implications of the trade. He thus took into account the second moment of the circle, the moment of social analysis. In this moment, the experiences obtained at the moment of insertion must not be considered in an isolated way. \u201cThese experiences must be understood in the richness of all their interrelationships,\u201d as Joe Holland and Peter Henriot point out. \u201cSocial analysis examines causes, probes consequences, delineates linkages, and identifies actors. It helps to make sense of experiences by putting them into a broader picture and drawing the connections between them\u201d (Holland and Henriot 1983, 8). Cardinal Lavigerie used much space in all of his presentations to show these connections, linkages and consequences.\nLavigerie's Theological Reflection\nData experienced and analysed in a comprehensive way must be interpreted at the third moment \u201cin the light of living faith, scripture, church social teaching, and the resources of tradition\u201d (Holland and Henriot 1983, 9). As Christians, we must allow everything that we do to be interrogated and judged by the word of God.\nLavigerie's Plan of Action\nCardinal Lavigerie exhibited sufficient familiarity with this teaching so that as a result and in the context of this teaching, he did not fail to present his audiences with a plan of action, namely, pastoral approaches to eradicate the trade. True to the method of Liberation Theology, Cardinal Lavigerie combined together academic and activist processes (Wijsen, Henriot and Mejia 2005, 108ff.). Even more importantly, he concretely identified himself with the situation of oppression.\nRESOURCE MATERIAL: STAR (Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience) Link Interview with Elaine Zook Barge >>",

Californians not feeling it\nJune 8, 2016 By Susan Shelley 2 Comments\nIs the Great Recession over?\nIn California, the signals are mixed.\nOn one hand, a recent study of U.S. Census data by the Washington, D.C.-based Economic Innovation Group found that Los Angeles County led the nation with the largest number of jobs added, a total of 352,840 between 2010 and 2014.\nThe good news extended statewide. Twenty counties in the U.S. accounted for half of net new businesses established in those years, and five of those counties are in California.\nYet the latest Field Poll found that 74 percent of California voters list the economy and jobs as their top concern.\nIs that just habit? Or something else?\nA closer look reveals a problem of definitions, starting with: What is a job?\n\u201cPeople are considered employed if they did any work at all for pay or profit during the survey reference week,\u201d explains the website of the U.S. government\u2019s Bureau of Labor Statistics, referring to its monthly survey of 60,000 households, \u201cThis includes all part-time and temporary work, as well as regular full-time, year-round employment.\u201d\nSo when people pick up part-time or temporary work for a few days or even for a few hours, the government counts them as \u201cemployed\u201d at \u201ca job.\u201d\nSome people are counted as \u201cemployed\u201d at \u201ca job\u201d even if they don\u2019t get paid.\nHere\u2019s an example from the BLS website: \u201cGarrett is 16 years old, and he has no job from which he receives any pay or profit. However, Garrett does help with the regular chores around his parents\u2019 farm and spends about 20 hours each week doing so.\u201d\nHere\u2019s another one: \u201cLisa spends most of her time taking care of her home and children, but she helps in her husband\u2019s computer software business all day Friday and Saturday.\u201d\nAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Garrett and Lisa have \u201cjobs.\u201d They\u2019re in a category called \u201dunpaid family workers,\u201d which includes \u2026\nThis piece was originally published by the L.A.

        "raw_content": "Lead Acquisition: B2B Survey and Profiling Tips\nB2B surveys for lead acquisition and contact accuracy\nImagine you\u2019re at work taking a short coffee break one afternoon when someone from a company calls you asking questions about the software you use at work. It\u2019s true of all of us\u2014the last thing we want when we\u2019re busy is to have someone interrupt our day with survey questions.\nAt Chameleon, we are \u201chired\u201d by other companies (our clients), and it\u2019s our job to ask questions to update our client\u2019s database, with the ultimate goal of improving our client\u2019s sales pipeline. The last thing we want to do is bother people. So what can we do to make our conversations with people more enjoyable? How can we get our surveys done without sounding like telemarketers? In short: Be polite, be brief, and be conversational rather than acting like an interrogator.\nHow Chameleon performs lead acquisition and database maintenance\nMost of the time, when we make calls we reach the operator first. Some of them tend to ask why we\u2019re calling that person. Instead of telling them that we\u2019re calling to update our database, tell them that we need to speak to a primary user in regards to our licensing usage. Most of the time, the receptionist will feel obligated to send you over to a primary user since your company is one of their vendors. We also recognize that receptionists answer calls all day, and a simple \u201cplease\u201d and \u201cthank-you\u201d will show them that we value their job. The more appreciated they feel, the more likely they will help us get to the person we need to talk to.\nTips for making successful survey calls\nWhen you finally get to speak with your prospect, keep it brief. Explain to them that you don\u2019t want to take too much of their time. Keep in mind that as soon as they find out that you\u2019re trying to get information from them, they will be eager to get you off the phone. Keep it simple, and prepare for the questions ahead of time. For example, tell them you\u2019re calling to make sure that you send future information to the right correspondence. This will usually help you get the information you need.\nBe conversational! If someone called me with survey questions, I would like to get them off the phone in five seconds. Make sure to let them talk and explain how they\u2019re using the license. Ask what type of issues they run into in their daily work. This way, with the knowledge you have of the programs, you can give some suggestions as to what product your company offers that will help the customers in the future.\nListening to the contact is one of the most important things you can do. By letting them talk, you have a chance to jot down ideas that could lead to the solution they\u2019re looking for. Even if we are making hundreds of calls in a single day at Chameleon, we strive to remain polite, brief, and conversational.\nCall Chameleon at (603)-570-4300 to learn more about our List Development & Acquisition Services!\nWritten by Demi, Chameleon Group",

DeRosa!\nBe sure to check out our Dear Reader post by the author, and enter the giveaway found at the end of the post!\nFulfilling her destiny and becoming the Guardian has meant a world of sacrifices for Celeste Wilder, but her most difficult challenge is yet to come. The supernatural forces at play are far more powerful than she ever expected, and she will have to trust her instincts if she hopes to survive. Lilliana Constantin is back from the dead. Alek is free and somehow stronger than ever. A pack of rogue werewolves are wreaking havoc in her small town. And on top of all of this, Celeste faces what is at best an uncertain future with the love of her life.\nWhile battling the forces of evil and saving the human world alongside Stellan and the handsome Constantin brothers has become second nature, Celeste had no idea what accepting her duty as the Guardian would actually cost her. When she faces an unspeakable tragedy, she is pushed to her breaking point. After fighting her most formidable enemies, Celeste is about to discover that sometimes the greatest evil is the one that comes from within.\nWilder Revelation (The Guardian Series #3)\nby G.K. DeRosa\nI am so excited to share with you the third book in The Guardian Series, Wilder Revelation! This series has been a true labor of love as it is my first real attempt at writing, and I absolutely fell in love with it. Celeste Wilder and the Constantin brothers \u2013 Roman and Nico and the rest of the crew in Oak Bluffs have become a part of my family, and I hope that you will fall in love with them too. When I first started writing Wilder: The Guardian Series I had no idea what was in store for Celeste or for me as a first time indie author. It has been an incredible journey for both of us, and I really feel that Celeste has grown as a character just as I have grown as an author in the past year.\nThe Guardian Series is a story about a typical teenage girl whose life gets completely turned upside down when she meets the mysterious (and of course handsome) Constantin brothers. As her relationship grows with them, she discovers not only the truth about who they are but more importantly, the truth about her own family legacy. As they guide her through the adventures of the new supernatural world she is thrown into, she learns to find strength within herself \u2013 more than what she ever thought possible. Like in any good young adult novel, there is love, adventure, romance, twists and turns and evil villains lurking in every corner.\nI really hope that you enjoy the supernatural world of Celeste Wilder and join her on her journey to becoming a major kick-butt heroine!\nGreat news!

In fact, before she could even read, she tried fooling everyone into thinking that she could. At the precocious age of two, while living in Italy, she had memorized an entire children\u2019s book in Italian and expertly turned the pages at the exact right moments of the story. As she grew up, she always enjoyed literature, no doubt having been instilled with a love of story telling from her early years in Catholic school where she was greatly influenced by exemplary teachers who taught her the value of English and Literature. Though she did not pursue writing in college and instead went for the more traditional route of International Business inspired by her love for travel and all things foreign, after a move to New York City, she found her creative writing side calling once again. She began writing a restaurant review blog, City Lights and Tasty Bites, detailing her other passion \u2013 food! The hectic hustle and bustle of the city, combined with long commuting times gave her the opportunity to spend more time reading and rekindled a lost love. After reading countless books in many diverse genres over the two years in New York City, and returning to her home state of Florida, she felt compelled to write something for herself. She had always felt particularly drawn to Young Adult novels and having been an eternal romantic at heart, a fantasy romance was a natural choice. She currently lives in South Florida with her real life Prince Charming and their fur baby, Nico the German Shepherd.\nSounds like a great read .

You may find it suitable to use both options or find one over the other offers more benefits.\nHomework Assistance Websites with Pre-calculus Support\nYou can work with a tutor or get information from free tutorials posted on the site.

These sites may have a forum or social networking page where you can post questions and get instant answers from others. You can access these sites at any time and you do not have to be limited to using just one website.\nAcademic writers experienced in pre-calculus work can provide easy to access assistance. You can hire a writer to help you do your work based on their experience and understanding of what you need completed. Some can provide examples of work they have done in the past to help you understand how they can assist you. Their rates are affordable and thousands of students use their services regularly.

        "raw_content": "As we have been visiting homes in Chatteris to introduce ourselves, we have been asked various questions. Here are some examples of things we have been asked, together with our responses:\nQ. Are you connected to the Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses?\nA. No! We are a Christian church who believe that Jesus Christ is God the Son, a member of the Holy Trinity \u2014 God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Jehovah\u2019s Witnesses do not consider themselves to be Christians, do not believe in the Holy Trinity, or that Jesus Christ is fully God. For a full explanation of What We Believe, please see that page on this website.\nQ. Do you acknowledge other churches?\nA. Yes! We have much in common with other churches such as Presbyterian, Congregational, Methodist, Church of England and The Salvation Army. We are Baptists and are members of the Grace Baptist Association (West Anglia) which includes churches in Cambridgeshire (Cambridge City, March, Needingworth, Over, Ramsey, Warboys, Whittlesey) as well as Deeping (in Lincolnshire) and Potton (in Bedfordshire).\nQ. If you\u2019re a proper church, why don\u2019t you have a church building?\nFor us, the Church is the group of Christians who meet together, not where they meet. However, we are a formally constituted Church, with a full-time Minister, Church Officers, Church Constitution and Statement of Faith, and we are a registered charity. We would like to own our own building, as it would enable us to do much more for the community of Chatteris. However, so far we have been unable to find a suitable property. That\u2019s why we are currently holding our services in Room 2 of The King Edward Centre, which is a great place to meet, but which isn\u2019t always available for hire outside of our normal service times.\nIf you want to know more about us, why not come along to our 10:30 a.m. Sunday Service, and also find out more about Jesus Christ, the Saviour of mankind, whom we love and serve?\nIf you have a question concerning Christianity, or us as a Church, you can always forward that question to our Pastor using the Contact page, For a full explanation of What We Believe, please see that page on our site.",

La Cruz takes its name from a Huanacaxtle tree that is in the form of a cross (\u201ccruz\u201d in Spanish) at the entrance to the town. La Cruz is a half hour north of the hustle and bustle of Puerto Vallarta and offers a restful alternative to the glitz of Vallarta and a glimpse of a typical fishing village, with its fair share of good restaurants, fun shopping and a vibrant music scene.\nLa Cruz is colorful with cobblestone streets shaded by giant trees that lead to the charming town square alongside the beautiful waterfront, where local fishermen fix and sew their fishing nets and tend to their fishing boats (pangas) and next store them in a newly constructed first-class marina built in 2008 with an abundance of slips that can accommodate some major yachts up to 400 feet long. It also has a beautiful Malecon which is the host to the world famous weekly farmers market every Sunday plus shops, an outdoor theater, restaurants and more.\nLife in this small Mexican fishing village still is extremely slow paced and it seems everyone moves at a leisurely slow pace. La Cruz is still has a small-town Mexican feel and is extremely friendly, but with the marina and top notch amenities, along with plenty of new luxurious residential communities around La Cruz, the town is increasingly catering to North Americans who have already discovered this little hidden paradise. If you are visiting Mexico be sure to add La Cruz to your must stop list. It is also the Marina where you will find the Chica Locca docked and making its daily exciting fun trips to the Marieta Islands.",

        "raw_content": "Home > > Facts About CCTV Cameras\nFacts About CCTV Cameras 2010-12-14\nClosed circuit television (CCTV) cameras are commonly implemented to deter crime. Especially used in the United Kingdom, CCTV cameras can be seen on nearly every corner of London and other major cities. Many cameras are needed for monitoring cities, and the number of cameras used has grown tremendously over the years. The majority of CCTV cameras are used for basic security surveillance, normally to prevent theft.\nThere are a couple of purposes behind the implementation of CCTV cameras. One basic idea is that by having cameras everywhere, any crimes that are committed will have video evidence that can be reviewed. With video evidence, crimes are much more likely to be solved.\nThe other idea behind CCTV is that it will serve as a prevention technique. If everyone knows that they are being recorded, then they should be less likely to commit crimes in the first place to avoid the repercussions.\nCCTVs were introduced in the 1970s as an analog system. Since then, the majority of cameras have been upgraded to digital, which are easier to manage and don't have to rely on large cable systems for data transmission and recording.\nCCTV is very popular in many areas throughout the world, mostly as a surveillance technique in small areas. The United Kingdom has implemented them as police surveillance techniques for cities as well. More than 25 million CCTVs are in operation around the world, 2.5 million of which are in the UK.\nStatistics show that in major cities like London, the average citizen is caught on CCTV cameras at a rate of almost 300 times per day.\nOne of the main focuses of CCTVs is theft-prevention. The idea is that this serves to deter theft, as well as to ensure a guilty verdict is carried out when a theft occurs. According to Hugh Marriage---a crime reduction officer for the southeast of England, \"CCTV pictures means there have been an enormous increase in guilty verdicts.\" Each guilty verdict saves an estimated 3,000 to 5,000 pounds.\nOne of the most highly documented success stories of CCTV cameras is the July 2005 bombing in London, where CCTV images helped with the identification of people that played a key role in the attack and ultimately lead to their convictions.\nHow to Open a BNC Connector",

The illnesses boost China's number of infections with the new virus to 33, with the number of deaths holding steady at 9.\nThe Shanghai women are ages 76 and 81, and both are in stable condition. Of the Jiangsu men, a 70-year-old is in critical condition and a 74-year-old is in serious condition. The man from Zhejiang is 65 years old and is in stable condition.\nIllness-onset dates were available for all but the Zhejiang man and range from Mar 29 to Apr 4. Most of the cases so far have been reported in middle-aged and older adults.\nThe World Health Organization (WHO) issued an update today on four cases that China first announced yesterday and emphasized that so far no evidence of human-to-human spread has been detected. It said Chinese officials are monitoring more than 600 close contacts and that an investigation is under way into a patient who got sick after contact with an earlier confirmed case in Jiangsu province.\nIn its Twitter feed today, the WHO said the behavior of the virus is more important than the exact case count. So far almost all confirmed cases have involved animal-to-human or environment-to-human transmission, such as in a farmyard or market setting.\n\"We will be watching for signs of human-to-human transmission and new cases in other geographical areas,\" the WHO said.\nOn the animal front, China's agriculture ministry has detected the virus at five more live-bird markets in three different eastern provinces, all of which have reported human cases, according to a report today from the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE). Three markets are in Jiangsu, one is in Anhui, and one is in Zhejiang.\nThe report didn't specify what type of birds tested positive but said the virus was detected in samples from 14 asymptomatic birds. Authorities will cull the birds to curb the spread of the virus.\nEarlier notifications of bird and poultry H7N9 findings involved only markets in Shanghai, according to previous OIE reports. The disease has been difficult to track in poultry, because the virus is low pathogenic in birds, and they don't show signs of disease.\nMeanwhile, researchers from a Chinese biology lab said today that the H7N9 virus is a reassortment of viruses from wild birds in East Asia and chickens from east China, Xinhua, China's state news agency, reported today.\nResearchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Key Laboratory of Pathogenic Microbiology and Immunology said their analysis found no links to pigs, which would exclude them as intermediate hosts, according to the report.\nScientists surmised that genetic reassortment probably occurred in east China's Yangtze River Delta area, which encompasses Shanghai, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu. They said a virus carried by wild birds from South Korea and nearby regions mingled with ducks and chickens in the delta area during migration.\nThe group reported that the H7 and N9 gene segments resemble those seen in East Asian wild birds and that the other six genes have links to chickens in Shanghai, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu, Xinhua reported.\nChina's wildlife conservation centers have bolstered their bird monitoring efforts to see if birds currently migrating from the south to the north are carrying the virus, amid fears that it could spread to the country's northern provinces, according to a separate report from Xinhua today. About 10 centers are monitoring the virus, including one in north China's Hebei province.\nThe European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) today underscored its advice that travelers avoid live-poultry markets, especially in light of the recent H7N9 developments.\nIn an epidemiologic update, the ECDC said that there is no need for travel restrictions, but it said Europeans working in or visiting China and other Asian countries should avoid live markets and direct contact with birds, untreated bird feathers, and other animal and bird waste.\nThe ECDC urged travelers to observe good hand hygiene, consisting of regular hand washing and the use of alcohol-based rubs. \"This is the same advice that ECDC has had in place since 2006,\" the group said.\nApr 10 CHP statement on Jiangsu and Zhejiang patients\nApr 10 CHP statement on Shanghai patients\nApr 10 WHO statement\nWHO Twitter feed\nApr 10 OIE report\nApr 10 Xinhua report on H7N9 avian source\nApr 10 Xinhua report on wild-bird monitoring\nApr 10 ECDC epidemiologic update",

Homeowners insurance coverage should be carefully matched to the value of your home, and the amount of the mortgage you have. Make sure the coverage does not drop below the cost to replace your home and or pay off your mortgage.\nBecause your insurance company sends the bill for your homeowners insurance directly to the lender each year (in most cases). The insurance company can, each year, increase the amount of coverage and the premium, under the pretence that the value has gone up. However, if your house burns to the ground and you have to replace the entire house, you will not have to replace the land, the foundation and the water or sewer taps. So why are they always insured?\nA wise man once said: \"If you watch the pennies, the dollars will take care of themselves.\"\nThat is good advice because it adds up to a lot of money over time.\nSo here is your choice:\n1. Give the extra money to the insurance company! or\n2. Save it for college tuition or a vacation for your family!\nBUT IF YOU DO NOT CHOOSE,\nTHE INSURANCE COMPANY WILL CHOOSE FOR YOU!\nWhy not get professional help from someone you can trust!",

        "raw_content": "Jatarie White\nEven as No. 6 Texas began to pull away during a 73-55 victory at the WVU Coliseum on Monday night, the Mountaineers refused to slow down.\nAfter surrendering seven unanswered Texas points to start the game, West Virginia freshman guard Ashley Jones and senior forward Teana Muldrow hit back-to-back threes to cut the deficit down to one point with 6:33 left in the first quarter.\nThe Mountaineers started to fly up and down the floor and whip the ball all over the court. It was similar to the Longhorns\u2019 style of play \u2014 tight defense leading to fast breaks and easy transition points.\nWest Virginia\u2019s resilience stunned Texas at first. The Longhorns weren\u2019t used to their opponents keeping up with them, but by the end of the first quarter, Texas trailed 19-18.\n\u201cIt was an interesting game,\u201d Texas head coach Karen Aston said. \u201cAs physical as we both play defense, nobody shot free throws hardly. That\u2019s usually interesting between us and West Virginia. It\u2019s usually a blood bath.\u201d\nAston countered by shifting Texas\u2019 offensive focus inside. The Longhorns ran more plays through their posts and crashed the offensive boards to claim a 37-26 lead heading into the half.\n\u201cI think the first half, there was a lot of attention paid to our guards,\u201d Aston said. \u201cI told them at halftime that we only had four offensive rebounds, and I think that (senior forward) Audrey(-Ann Caron-Goudreau) had all of them. So, that must have motivated (junior forward) Jatarie (White).\u201d\nMidway through the third quarter, junior guard Lashann Higgs nuzzled past her defender and stormed toward the rim. White\u2019s defender slid to cut her off. Higgs took an extra dribble, then wrapped around the help defense to find White wide open. White scored despite being fouled and converted the and-one free throw.\nWhite asserted herself in the third quarter, erupting for nine points and four rebounds.\nBut West Virginia kept shooting.\nThe Mountaineers made 50 percent of their outside shots and finished the night making more threes than two-pointers. The hot shooting allowed them to stay within arm\u2019s reach of the lead for the majority of the game. Entering the fourth quarter, West Virginia trailed by just 10 points.\n\u201cWe let them shoot threes all night long,\u201d Aston said. \u201cBut that\u2019s what they do \u2014 they do it really well. We\u2019ll go back and look at film and see where we could\u2019ve been a little bit better in that area because obviously 10 threes is too many.\u201d\nThe Longhorns leaned on their seniors to hold West Virginia off.\nSenior guard Ariel Atkins had just four points through the first three quarters. Late in the fourth, she tipped a pass from Muldrow and hustled to keep the ball inbounds. She reached it just before stepping on the sideline, twirled and found fellow senior guard Brooke McCarty streaking up the floor for the easy finish.\nThe pair closed the game out on a 9-0 run, assisting or scoring on every basket.\n\u201cI kind of just picked up my energy on defense and started feeding off the energy from my teammates,\u201d Atkins said. \u201cThey didn\u2019t get down on me. They kept me energized. They told me to keep playing. They told me to do the best I could on defense, and once I kind of amped up and I looked in their eyes, they kept believing in me, kept the energy up. I didn\u2019t have a choice but to play.\u201d\nAtkins finished the game with 17 points, including 13 in the final quarter. White finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds.\nTexas (19\u20134, 10\u20132 Big 12) has played three games in six days. The Longhorns will get some much-needed rest before hosting Kansas State (12\u201311, 4\u20138 Big 12) at the Frank Erwin Center on Saturday. Still, Atkins knows there\u2019s no time to waste.\n\u201cThere\u2019s work to be done,\u201d Atkins said. \u201cMy focus is my team. This is my last year, this is my last chance to really give them what I\u2019ve got. And I want to give everything I have left in my tank to my college career.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Home > Protected\nMillie Webb\nMillie Webb is a singer, songwriter, life-long Unity student and member of Next Generation of Unity [1]. She performs throughout the Midwest and regularly at Unity Church of Overland Park [2] in Kansas.\nAs a young teenager I wondered, what is the point of prayer? I grew up in Unity, so I knew God works in and through me every moment of every day. Divine order is at work in the universe at all times, so why waste time praying when God is already all-knowing? I asked my minister and was told that prayer was a way to center ourselves and re-connect with the truth that we already know.\nIt was 1998, and I was 16, when something happened that changed my life and changed the way I understood prayer. I was living in Australia as an exchange student. On December 26, the Australian national holiday Boxing Day, my host family and I were sitting in the living room when I was attacked by the family dog. The dog, a long-snouted Saluki, snapped crossways at my face, biting into my upper lip and corner of my eye and slicing through my nose. The attack was severe and my mind immediately went into emergency mode. But what was it that ran through my mind? Was it screaming? Crying? Flailing about? No, it wasn\u2019t. What it was surprised even me. It was, \u201cThe light of God surrounds me. The love of God enfolds me. The power of God protects me. The presence of God watches over me. Wherever I am, God is, and all is well.\u201d\nHere I was, thousands of miles away from home, a teenager in an unfamiliar family, holding my hands over my face and bleeding profusely. Anyone would have expected complete and utter panic, but for some reason James Dillet Freeman\u2019s \u201cPrayer for Protection\u201d ran through my mind. I repeated it silently to myself as others scrambled around me. I repeated it as I rode in the backseat to the nearest open clinic. I repeated it as I was laid on a stretcher and assessed by a nurse. I repeated it as we got back into the car and drove another 20 minutes to Melbourne\u2019s Children\u2019s Hospital where I proceeded to have emergency reconstructive surgery. As I repeated the prayer, an all-encompassing strength and unwavering trust resonated within me. The deepest faith I\u2019ve ever known overcame my body, and in that moment, I knew that as God was working in and through me, I had the power to come through this. My prayer did more than just hold me together; it transformed me from a scared child to a safe and divinely protected child of God.\nWhen I awoke, surrounded by my host parents and a team of nurses, my face was covered in bandages, breathing was difficult and I was unable to speak. I lay there, taking it all in, and yet, I felt a deep sense of calm, deep down at my core. I was alright, and everything was going to be alright.\nThey say in an emergency a person has one of two reactions\u2014either fight or flight. My reaction was neither, it was prayer. Now, more than 10 years later, I am still comforted by my reaction. The dog attack didn\u2019t change my life, but prayer did.\nMillie Webb [3]\nJames Dillet Freeman [4]\nPrayer for Protection [5]\nUnity Church of Overland Park [6]\nNext Generation Unity [7]\nSource URL: http://www.dailyword.com/articles/2012/08/protected\n[1] http://content.unity.org/association/adults/nextGenerationMinistry/index.html\n[2] http://www.ucop.org\n[3] http://www.dailyword.com/tags/millie-webb\n[4] http://www.dailyword.com/tags/james-dillet-freeman\n[5] http://www.dailyword.com/tags/prayer-protection\n[6] http://www.dailyword.com/tags/unity-church-overland-park\n[7] http://www.dailyword.com/tags/next-generation-unity",

        "title": "Daniel Williams - Texas: Recap of the First Day of Filing",
        "raw_content": "Yesterday was the first day to file bills in the Texas legislature. These bills represent the highest legislative priorities for the officials who filed them. There were 156 bills and 1 concurrent resolution filed in the Senate and 198 bills filed in the House. I haven't yet read through all of the legislation but here are some highlights from today:\nSB 42 - allow victims of cyber-bullying to be transferred to other classes or campuses\nHB 16 - voter ID bill - bad for Texas, good for Trans community\nHB 24 - allow cyber-bullies in alternative school\nHB 130 - create a statewide bullying hotline\nHB 169 - allow schools to force bullies into JROTC programs\nHB170 - create a 300 foot safe zone around school campuses\nMost legislation gets passed by being amended onto other bills, so it's important to look out for legislation that is on similar topics. Here are some bills that were filed that have the potential to be improved by adding queer friendly amendments.\nSB 29 - would allow grad students at state schools to be eligible for health benefits. Currently state schools are prohibited from offering health benefits to the domestic partners of staff. This bill could be an opportunity for that legislation.\nSCR 1 - teabagger nonsense about states rights. (SCR stands for Senate Concurant Resolution, in this case it won't accomplish anything or change any laws if passed, it's just an opportunity to pontificate) It goes on - at length - about the 2nd, 9th and 10th amendment. There is an opportunity, if this bill makes it to the floor, for someone to attempt to amend a reminder of the 16th amendment's guarantee of equal protection under the law, specifically as it should apply to marriage equality and employment protections.\nHB 22 - would require public schools to report how many non-citizen students they have. This is another one of the Debbie Riddle anti-immigrant bills. What's interesting is that it says that schools should report this information in a way that would not discriminate based on \"race, color, disability, sex, religion, age, or national origin\". There is an opportunity to add to this list \"Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity an Expression. The more times this enumerated list appears in the code the better.\nHB 82 - revises the way that the state informs 18 year old men that they are required to register for selective service. The precise wording of the notice could be amended to also notify people of the military's \"Don't Ask, Don't Tell\" policy.\nAnother interesting bill that some people may not recognize will benefit the queer community.\nHB 38 - stiffens penalties for graffiti on certain structures - including community centers that provide medical, social, or educational programs. This would include most LGBT community centers and may be helpful in countering the hate graffiti that they often have to contend with.\nThere are many bills that still need to be read - we are seeking additional contributors to help us work through them please e-mail legislativequeery@gmail.com to volunteer.",

        "title": "A Review of Arthur Melzer's Philosophy Between the Lines \u2014 davidcayley.com",
        "raw_content": "Philosophy Between Lines, Arthur Melzer\nA Review of Arthur Melzer's Philosophy Between the Lines\nARTHUR MELZER, PHILOSOPHY BETWEEN THE LINES: THE LOST ART OF ESOTERIC WRITING (University of Chicago Press, 2014)\nI picked up this book, after seeing it reviewed, because I had been thinking about the claim I recently encountered that the work of Ivan Illich is a disguised form of theology. (This claim is made in Todd Hartch\u2019s new book The Prophet of Cuernavaca: Ivan Illich and the Crisis of the West, where he says that \u201cIllich\u2019s writing had a hidden purpose.\u201d) I am currently writing about Illich, and I thought that Melzer\u2019s book might teach me something about esoteric writing and so help me to assess the claim that Illich is an esoteric writer. I soon found that this was a book that could do a lot more than that.\nThe word esoteric itself is probably one of the reasons that I was not expecting a work of such breadth as this one proved to be. I don\u2019t mean that Melzer should have used a different word. Esoteric is certainly the accepted term of art for what Melzer discusses \u2013 philosophical writing that disguises some part of its purpose or hopes to be understood in different ways by different readers \u2013 but, for most contemporary readers, the word connotes something arcane and out of the way, while Melzer\u2019s book concerns crucial issues in the history of both philosophy and politics. This, in fact, illustrates one of Melzer\u2019s main points. Contemporary readers have lost any feel for the esoteric, sensing it as nothing more than a childish game, a form of \u201cperverse ingenuity\u201d as one critic says. But lacking this feel, he says, they become unable to understand how philosophy has been written through most of its history. And that misunderstanding is the occasion for his book. It is not, he tells us, that he has some esoteric purpose of his own, or even any particular liking for the genre \u2013 \u201cI can barely tolerate subtlety,\u201d he jokes in his introduction \u2013 but that he wants to make readers aware of a practice that he believes coloured \u201cthe whole conduct of intellectual life in the West over two millennia.\u201d\nHe establishes the reality of this modern neglect early in the book with a quotation from Goethe, who wrote to a friend in 1811: \u201cI have always considered it an evil, indeed a disaster which, in the second half of the previous century, gained more and more ground that one no longer drew a distinction between the exoteric and the esoteric.\u201d Melzer then goes on to offer evidence of the predominance of this practice up to the last years of the 18th Century (and, indeed its continuance by other names into our own time, as we shall see). Here I will cite several key pieces of this evidence, just to give the flavour. First Plato from the Seventh Letter:\nIf it seemed to me that these [philosophical] matters could adequately be put down in writing for the many or be said, what could be nobler for us to have done in our lifetime than this, to write what is a great benefit for human beings and to lead nature forth into the light for all? But I do not think such an undertaking concerning these matters would be a good for human beings, unless for some few, those who are themselves able to discover them through a small indication; of the rest, it would unsuitably fill some of them with a mistaken contempt, and others with a lofty and empty hope as if they had learned awesome matters.\nAnd two thousand years later, here is Jean Jacques Rousseau explaining, also in a letter, how his first discourse (On the Origin of Inequality) should be read:\nIt was only gradually and always for a few readers that I developed my ideas\u2026I have often taken great pains to try to put into a sentence, a line, a word tossed off as if by chance the result of a long sequence of reflections. Often most of my readers must have found my discourses badly connected and almost entirely rambling, for lack of perceiving the trunk of which I showed them only the branches. But that was enough for those who know how to understand, and I have never wanted to speak to the others.\nThese are strong examples, but not at all isolated. Melzer offers considerable evidence that no philosophically minded writer before the 19th century believed that he could or should write entirely transparently, though the required degree of discretion and strategic obscurity remained a matter of dispute and discussion. For example, Melzer offers this wonderful quotation from Erasmus, opposing Luther\u2019s all out attack on Rome, despite Erasmus\u2019s sympathy for Luther\u2019s aims:\nFor seeing that truth of itself has a bitter taste for most people, and that it is of itself a subversive thing to uproot what has long been commonly accepted, it would have been wiser to soften a naturally painful subject by the courtesy of one\u2019s handling than to pile one cause of hatred on another\u2026A prudent steward will husband the truth \u2013 to bring it out, I mean, when the business requires it, and bring it out so much as is requisite and bring out for every man what is appropriate for him \u2013 [but] Luther in this torrent of pamphlets has poured it all out at once, making everything public.\nHere Erasmus criticizes Luther for being insufficiently esoteric. And differences of this kind continue through the modern period. Everyone agrees on the need for some degree of indirection, but how much may be in dispute. For example, figures associated with the more radical wing of the Enlightenment sometimes criticized their more cautious confr\u00e8res like Montesquieu, Rousseau and Voltaire for their hesitancies, but even they preserved some elements of esotericism. One such radical Denis Diderot still believed that \u201cone must be wise in secret,\u201d and Pierre Bayle, another, writing earlier, during the first wave of Enlightenment, had reproved the followers of Descartes with not knowing \u201cwhat must be said and what must not be said.\u201d\nBut here we come again to the difficulty which I have already mentioned with the term esoteric or esotericism. Erasmus\u2019s difference with Luther could certainly be said to concern the proper degree of esotericism, i.e. Erasmus wishes Luther had spoken more esoterically, and Melzer uses the word in that broad sense. But it seems to me that it would be more accurate to say that Erasmus wishes Luther more discreet, more prudent, more diplomatic. Using the word esoteric cannot but invoke an element of dissimulation, unhealthy secrecy, perhaps even of conspiracy simply because these are connotations of this word as it is currently used. But I see nothing of this in what Erasmus says. In this sense, the word esoteric seems to unduly confine and limit Melzer\u2019s meaning.\nLet me expand this point slightly before going on. One of the things that excited me about Melzer\u2019s book was that I began to see almost immediately that it could be understood as a book about something much more than an outr\u00e9, superceded and slightly suspect practice of elitist philosophers who wanted either to deceive or manipulate their publics. Esoteric denotes willful secrecy \u2013 something intended only for initiates \u2013 but there is a sense in which all writing is esoteric writing. This is obviously true if one can\u2019t read, but it remains true even as the various degrees of reading are achieved. For most people there will always be types of literature for which they have neither interest nor aptitude and which will therefore remain in that sense esoteric. But, all writing is esoteric in another sense as well because all writing of any ambition is bound to be more or less misunderstood. There is no frictionless transmission of meaning from one mind to another, and control, always partial, of potential misunderstanding will always be a great part of the writer\u2019s art. This is not just because, as Socrates says in Phaedrus \u2013 Melzer quotes the passage \u2013 \u201cevery [written] speech rolls around everywhere, both among those who understand and among those for whom it is not fitting, and it does not know to whom it ought to speak and to whom not.\u201d It is also because nearly every word sets off a cascade of associations, which will necessarily differ from reader to reader. One doesn\u2019t have to contemplate the interference patterns created by these waves of association for long before it begins to seem miraculous that we understand each other at all. In addition written language, simply by having been put in a fixed from, is reified \u2013 it becomes stupid, inert and unresponsive to its reader, an absence masquerading as a presence. It was for this reason that Heidegger first suggested the practice, later deployed more extensively by Jacques Derrida, of writing \u201cunder erasure\u201d i.e. crossing out a word so that it remains legible under the erasure, and in that way giving a graphic representation of the fact that every word belies itself.\nTo say writing is esoteric in this sense is just to recognize its frailty as a vehicle. If the word is taken in this way, one gets around the charge that has been put against Melzer, as well as against Leo Strauss whose Persecution and The Art of Writing (1952) was the first book in recent times to draw attention to the importance of esotericismfor understanding philosophical writing. Bernard Yack, in his review of Melzer\u2019s book for the electronic journal Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews (http://ndpr.nd.edu/news/53333-philosophy-between-the-lines-the-lost-history-of-esoteric-writing/) sums up this objection:\nIn this review, Yack goes on to say that he thinks Melzer has supplied what Strauss never did: a convincing compendium of evidence which includes \u201ctestimony from major figures in every age from Classical Antiquity through the Renaissance and Enlightenment, confirming knowledge and approval of these ways of esoteric means of communicating philosophic ideas.\u201d And yet Yack says he is still unsatisfied, and thinks skeptics will remain unconvinced. The problem, he says, is that while Melzer has supplied plenty of persuasive testimony that philosophers thought they were writing, in some sense, esoterically, he has not given much evidence that \u201cphilosophers\u2026 let alone playwrights like Shakespeare and Sophocles, produce works that continuously subvert their most prominent arguments in ways that help readers construct an alternative, esoteric argument to take their place.\u201d Yack goes on to say that he believes this type of esotericism to be \u201cextremely rare\u201d and to claim that Melzer has furnished no convincing example of it. The example that came to mind for me in reading Yack\u2019s criticism of Melzer was Shakespeare\u2019s Henry V where no less an authority than Northrop Frye finds beneath the plays seemingly jingoistic surface \u2013 \u201conce more into the breach, dear friends\u201d \u2013 a counter-current which subverts and counteracts the more conventional surface. Literature, whether philosophical, poetical or narrative, does, again and again, subvert, relativize and destabilize its ostensible commitments. But my point is that the word esoteric, as used in Melzer\u2019s book, suggests something much more restricted than he has, in fact, indicated in his book. He raises issues concerning the nature of writing, the limits of politics, and the proper purpose of philosophy which go so far beyond the more limited question of whether writers have hidden agendas that I think he might have done well to scrap the words esoteric and esotericism in framing his argument.\nThat said, let me return to my discussion of the book and resume using the word he uses. Melzer, as I have said, has provided a scholarly treasure trove of evidence that philosophers from Pythagoras to Kierkegaard have held to some variation of Lao Tzu\u2019s \u201cthose who know do not tell,\u201d or at least do not tell in the wrong place, at the wrong time, to the wrong people. Some of this evidence comes from the New Testament, and Melzer\u2019s discussion of the Gospel passages which recommend silence, secrecy and discretion was one of the sections of his book that I found most interesting. These passages are familiar, and, in that sense, it is not surprising that the New Testament should be included in a history of esotericism. But in another way it is surprising. Christianity, Nietzsche quipped, was \u201cPlatonism for the people,\u201d and the remark has its point insofar as the church believed it could spoon out a subversive and explosive doctrine to everyone. It is surprising, therefore, to recall how often Jesus seems to recommend something more like what Melzer calls philosophical esotericism. Jesus was, first of all, like Socrates, an oralist who committed none of his teaching to writing. He was also careful what he said and where he said it. He taught in stories, explaining to his disciples that \u201cthe secret of the kingdom\u201d was granted to them while \u201cto those who are outside everything comes in parables.\u201d He warned against casting \u201cpearls before swine\u201d lest \u201cthey [the swine] turn and rend you.\u201d After quizzing the disciples about who they thought he was, and receiving the answer from Peter that he is the Christ, he enjoined him to tell no one about it. Likewise when he was transfigured with Moses and Elijah, he warned Peter, James and John to keep the whole story to themselves. Later, the apostle Paul also adjusted his doctrine to his audience, telling the Corinthians that, at first, he fed them on milk because they were not yet ready for solid food. Examples could be multiplied, but it seems clear enough that there are abundant traces in the gospels of a teacher well aware of the dangers full disclosure might pose to himself and others. There is also a huge tension between this esoteric practice, and the triumphalist strain in which trumpeting angels unfurl banners and shout the good news from the skies. Likewise there is a strain between the prudent teacher who practices protective esotericism, and the anointed one whose death is inevitable and whose passion has been entirely foretold. (\u201cAll this happened,\u201d Matthew says, \u201cto fulfill the prophecies in scripture.\u201d) Arguably this tension continued in Christianity once it began to be formulated as a religion. This is not the place to argue the point but one might cite the resurrection as the very archetype of a doctrine that should have remained esoteric and been discussed only with the greatest discretion and reserve. Simone Weil held such a view. For her the \u201ctheology of glory\u201d which proclaimed the resurrection as a triumphant happy ending and a universal destiny was a travesty, a denaturing of the bitter truth of the crucifixion. She affirmed the resurrection but only when hedged with the recognition of all the damage such an idea could do when shouted from the rooftops i.e. made exoteric.\nEsoteric writing continues to the end of the 18th century, and, in some cases beyond \u2013 among 19th century writers, Melzer quotes Kierkegaard on the necessity of deceiving those who are deceived, as well as Emily Dickinson\u2019s wonderful poem which begins \u201cTell all the truth but tell it slant\u201d \u2013 and the subject was never so hotly discussed as during the second half of the 18th century. This discussion culminated, Melzer says, during a thirty year period between 1750 and 1784. In 1750 Rousseau published his Discourse on the Sciences and Arts in which he criticized popularizers who have \u201cindiscreetly broken down the door of the sciences and let into their sanctuary a populace unworthy of approaching it.\u201d In 1784Kant published his famous essay \u201cWhat Is Enlightenment?\u201d In between there was a discussion whose scope was unprecedented. Never in two millennia, Melzer says, had there been so intense and so open a discussion of \u201cthe social utility of truth and falsehood.\u201d But this debate was concerned only with the tactical form of esotericism that Melzer calls political esotericism \u2013 everyone agreed on the aims of progress and universal enlightenment but disagreed on the proper pace of change. Ancient esotericism, which was much more thoroughgoing, had by then already been rejected by early modern thinkers like Machiavelli, Bacon and Hobbes.\nThe great dividing line between ancient and modern philosophy, in Melzer\u2019s account, runs between their respective views of the relations between theory and practice (he retains the Greek term praxis, but I\u2019ll use practice here.) The ancients held that these relations were fundamentally conflictual \u2013 that the world could never be brought into conformity with the dictates of reason, and that to try to do so would be fatal to the health of society, as well as to the health of philosophers. Society, or the city, its ancient archetype, must live according to unreason, its security and continuity dependent on various noble lies \u2013 the sacred origin of the laws, the brotherhood of the citizens, the providential character of the division of labour, the sanctity of marriage etc. Philosophers might think beyond these necessary fictions, but, if they did so, they would practice various forms of esotericism in order to safeguard both themselves and their cities. Melzer lists four main forms of this esotericism: protective, by which the institutions of the city were shielded from the potentially corrosive effects of pure reason; defensive, by which the philosopher avoided persecution by veiling his doctrines in obscurity, ambiguity or outright misdirection; pedagogical, by which would-be initiates were guidedto pursue their own enlightenment rather than being handed ready made answers; and finally political, in which caution with dangerous truths was employed to some political end.\nAll these forms of esotericism were premised on the underlying conviction that political community and philosophical rationality must always follow different principles and that the \u201cthe two lives,\u201d the vita activa and the vita contemplativa, could never be brought into complete harmony. Plato\u2019s Republic, read esoterically, is a demonstration that this is so. But, once this art was lost, it was possible to get readings like the one offered in Karl Popper\u2019s The Open Society and Its Enemies (1945) in which Plato is treated as a proto-fascist, a harbinger of modern totalitarianism who is offering, straight-faced, a blueprint for utopia. Melzer, like many other Platonists, sees Plato as ironic, offering the whole machinery of eugenics, banished poets, children removed from their parents, guardians, philosophers kings and all the rest as a satire on reason rampant and not a blueprint.\nModern philosophy begins with what German/American political philosopher Leo Strauss called \u201ca lowering of the sights.\u201d (There is a close relationship between Melzer and Strauss \u2013 some readers will already have recognized it \u2013 which I\u2019ll come to presently.) Ancient philosophy pursued the highest good, even if it could not be realized. It was an attempt, as Melzer says, \u201cto live in the mysterious light of the whole.\u201d The moderns, beginning with Machiavelli, adopt more realistic aims. Fundamentally they reject the idea of an inherent disharmony between reason and political society. Classical philosophy had its head in the clouds \u2013 even in ancient Athens this was Aristophanes\u2019 charge against Socrates in his play The Clouds \u2013 let it now come down to earth and formulate more practical aims. If the sights were set on comfortable self-preservation \u2013 on life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness \u2013 and, if we were, as Bacon advises, to get control of nature by first following her, then reason and society could gradually be harmonized. Already in distant view is Marx\u2019s famous maxim in his Theses on Feuerbach: Up \u2018til now \u201cthe philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it.\u201d Philosophy, Melzer says, became militant.\nThis had several consequences. It put philosophy at perpetual risk of corruption by creating a temptation to rate political expediency higher than truth, or even to argue in extremis that political expediency is truth \u2013 Orwell followed this road to its end in 1984 and Animal Farm. It projected the ideal of progress, and, on the model of natural philosophy-becoming-science, made knowledge cumulative. Ancient pedagogical esotericism had demanded that each student should re-ascend the heights of philosophy for him or herself, rung by laborious rung. The idea of progress and accumulation allowed the philosopher to stand, with Newton, \u201con the shoulders of giants,\u201d but it also left the assumptions that comprised these shoulders unexamined. So modern thought, Melzer says, grew abstract and out of touch with the long chains of ungrounded presuppositions on which it was founded.\nA key reason for the militancy of modern thought was its sense, particularly during the Enlightenment, that it was locked in a life and death struggle with superstitition, priestcraft and dogmatic religion, which Hobbes summarized as\u201cthe kingdom of darkness.\u201d This antagonism, Melzer argues, was born of the relationship between Christianity and philosophy during the centuries in which Christianity was establishing its spiritual dominion. Christianity, he says, was a religion without law \u2013 it had no sharia or halakhah. It was a spiritual religion declaring, as the apostle Paul says, that \u201cwe are released from the Law, having died to what was binding us, and so we are in a new service, that of the spirit, and not in the old service of a written code.\u201d This was a revolutionary departure, in Melzer\u2019s view, because religion and politics had up to this point been two faces of the same \u201ctheologico-political realm. In support of this point he quotes the French scholar Fustel de Coulanges who says in his book The Ancient City that \u201call political institutions had been religious institutions\u2026the laws had been sacred formulas, and the kings and magistrates had been priests.\u201d Christianity separated politics and religion, planting the seeds of the modern secular by positing, as Augustine would eventually say, two cities, the civitas dei and the civitas terrena, the city of God and the earthly city. It was moreover a \u201cremarkably apolitical\u201d religion because it failed to address \u201cconcrete social customs, mores and usages\u201d as its Judaic matrix had, and as later religions like Islam would. Its character, Melzer argues, was of a \u201ctranscendent or universal religion of faith\u201d which specified spiritual principles without offering practical or political guidance. This rather cloudy, abstract character, Melzer goes on, put it in particular need of philosophical elaboration. Bishops might fulminate against it \u2013 \u201cIt is not by philosophy that it has pleased God to save his people,\u201d says Ambrose of Milan (337-397) \u2013 or ask with Tertullian (160-220), \u201cWhat has Athens to do with Jerusalem?\u201d; but Christianity needed philosophy in Melzer\u2019s view, because, as a religion without law, it was destined to become \u201ca doctrinal or dogmatic theological religion that made salvation contingent on the acceptance of certain often obscure or controversial dogmas.\u201d In the elaboration of this doctrinal apparatus philosophy became a necessary accomplice. \u201cChristianity kept philosophy alive but subdued and under house arrest,\u201d is Melzer\u2019s pithy formula. (Melzer doesn\u2019t speak of specific teachings but I imagine he is thinking of doctrines like the Trinity, which achieved its canonical form at the Council of Constantinopole in 360, or the two natures of Christ hammered out at Chalcedon in 451.)\nChristianity became a dogmatic religion, so concerned with its doctrinal integrity that it began to persecute and kill those it viewed as heretics. This created the paradox that preoccupied Voltaire: \u201cOf all religions,\u201d he wrote, \u201cthe Christian should\u2026inspire the most toleration, but till now the Christians have been the most intolerant of all men.\u201d It also created a fatal animus within philosophy towards religion and its \u201cdark kingdom,\u201d fatal because it led philosophy so deep into history and projects of historical change that philosophy finally came to see itself as a pawn of history. In short, philosophy became \u201chistoricist\u201d or \u201crelativist.\u201d Melzer defines these two terms, to which he assigns a rough equivalence, as follows: \u201cthe view that moral values and social norms have no objective or universal validity but derive from the arbitrary commitments of one\u2019s culture, which are not intrinsically superior to the different or opposite commitments of other cultures.\u201d Karl Mannheim in an essay called \u201cHistoricism\u201d written in 1924 claimed that this view \u201cnot only organizes, like an invisible hand, the work of social and cultural sciences but also permeates everyday thinking.\u201d Hans Georg Gadamer says that \u201chistorical self-consciousness\u201d is \u201cthe most important revolution among those we have undergone since the beginning of the modern epoch.\u201d Closer to home, GeorgeGrant said the same in his 1969 Massey Lectures Time as History. We feel ourselves as so much the prisoners of time and circumstance, as Grant said in his agonized \u201cA Platitude\u201d in Technology and Empire, that we can experience what is absolutely and unquestionably good only through our desperate \u201cintimations of deprival.\u201d\nIt is, in a way, appropriate to quote and remember Grant here because Leo Strauss, who is the presiding intellectual influence in Melzer\u2019s book, also played a decisive part in Grant\u2019s life. It was in reading Strauss, Grant told me in an interview in 1985, that he came to the shattering thought that \u201cperhaps the Western experiment, the experiment that had gone on since the 17th century in both natural science and political science, had been a mistake.\u201d Now Strauss is a polarizing figure, and those who hate him, hate him a lot. In Canada Shadia Drury, a professor of Political Science at the University of Regina, has led the charge, portraying Strauss as a sinister elitist and the godfather of American neo-conservatism who espouses \u201cperpetual deception of the citizens by those in power.\u201d Among American critics, Nicolas Xenos goes so far as to find in Strauss\u2019s teaching a nucleus of \u201cpure fascism.\u201d (This charge is quoted in Strauss\u2019s Wikipedia entry.) Melzer acknowledges the fuss \u2013 \u201cIf you don\u2019t like Strauss\u2026just try not to think about him,\u201d he advises early in his book \u2013 but thinks it is all largely misunderstanding. Strauss\u2019s \u201cproject,\u201d Melzer says, \u201cconcerned not politics, as is almost universally assumed, but philosophy.\u201d Reviewers like Bernard Yack, whom I cited above, have found this claim to be disingenuous \u2013 or, more politely, to be a form of defensive esotericism \u2013 and this seems true insofar as a project of defending philosophy from politics can certainly be described as itself political, but Melzer does make a good case that the history of philosophy was Strauss\u2019s central concern.\nMelzer\u2019s book culminates in an assessment of Strauss\u2019s critique of historicism and his plea for a return to the philosophical posture of the classical philosophers. Esoteric writing plays an important part in this critique. Beginning with his 1952 book Persecution and the Art of Writing, Strauss argued that an understanding of esotericism was crucial for an understanding of philosophy, and he continued to develop this idea in later works. Melzer digests his argument into six main points: 1) Historicism partly rests on the argument that philosophers chronically disagree and that this shows them to be enclosed within their own time, place and temperament. But if it is accepted that philosophers adopt various protective and pedagogical disguises, then careful reading may show them to be not so different as they appear at first glance. 2) Philosophers practicing defensive esotericism appear to be in greater agreement with the ruling ideas of their time than they actually are. 3) Without understanding esotericism we can\u2019t appreciate the abyss the separates the ancients from the moderns. 4) Classic thought can only defend itself effectively if it is reinterpreted as radically skeptical, possessing no completed metaphysical system, but living rather, as Melzer says, \u201cin the light of the mysterious character of the whole.\u201d 5) Historicism can be understood as a reaction against the harm done to society by the abandonment of esotericism i.e. once philosophy threw caution to the winds and oversold reason, its Enlightenment pretensions had to be tamed, and this was done by re-grounding reason in historical circumstance. And, finally, 6) Historicism reflects the harm done to philosophy by the decline of esoteric writing. The idea here is that modern thought, insofar as it was militant and progressive, was also \u201cabstract and derivative\u201d i.e. it lacked the \u201cdirect connection to [the] pre-theoretic, commonsense experience\u201d which had nourished ancient philosophy. In other words, the practice of esotericism was partly based on the idea that \u201cpre-theoretic, commonsense experience\u201d required protection from the corrosive effects of ungrounded reason. When this idea was abandoned, philosophy lost its grounding, and historicism became a plausible correction of the excessively abstract character which was imparted to modern philosophy by its overweening ambition.\nLeo Strauss who died in in 1973, wrote of what he called the \u201ccrisis of modernity.\u201d According to Melzer he understood it in the following way:\nThe legitimacy of Western science, philosophy and rationalism is being radically challenged by two opposite but mutually reinforcing movements \u2013 the ancient force of religious orthodoxy and the \u201cpostmodern\u201d one of historicism or cultural relativism.\nThis crisis had come about because of the inherent defects of modern rationalism \u2013 Strauss speaks of the \u201cself-destruction of rational philosophy.\u201d The main reasons for this self-immolation were its dogmatic demand for certainty and presuppositionless \u201cfoundations\u201d; its attachment to political realism, practical efficacy and historical progress; and, above all, its insistence on the harmony of theory and practice, rationality and politicality \u2013 a deformity produced by the intensity of its struggle with religion. Strauss hoped, and Melzer shares and has extended this hope, that, in Melzer\u2019s words, \u201cthe rediscovery of esotericism may possibly open the path to a \u2018posthistoricist or \u2018post-modernist\u2019 re-legitimation of reason through a new return to authentic Socratic rationalism.\u201d\nOne reason why this desired goal may someday come about is that historicism in Strauss\u2019s view destroys its own foundations. He felt for example that toleration, the primary virtue produced by cultural relativism, tends to reach its inherent limit when it discovers that it has no reason not to tolerate intolerance i.e. it possesses no internal resources by which it can discover what should be tolerated and what not. And Melzer has other reasons to hope. He argues, for example, in his book\u2019s final pages, that classical thought is \u201ca philosophy not of progress and enlightenment but of return.\u201d Return, for me, evokes the great emphasis on homecoming and restoration in contemporary ecological thought and suggests that Melzer is shares this widespread longing. Classical thought, he goes on, \u201cremains remarkably concrete, self-aware and rooted in ordinary experience.\u201d Esotericism, in this attractive rendering, protects not only the elite space of the philosopher \u2013 elitism, a word usually spoken as a curse in our day, was always the weightiest charge against Strauss \u2013 but also the vernacular, untheorized world. Philosophy and vernacular life, in this view, are complements, not replacements for one another as they became in modernity when reason sought to remake society and was then supplanted in turn by periodic restorations of the claims of the irrational. Esotericism, understood this way, stands for the restraint that keeps philosophy within bounds, preserving its integrity, and preventing it from overstepping its proper sphere.\nThis is where Melzer ends, and I think it\u2019s worth quoting fairly fully the contrast he draws on his final page between classical and modern thought.\nClassical philosophy endeavored to legitimize itself, to illuminate and test its basic presuppositions, through the constant return to and confrontation with the world of pre-philosophic experience (relying on esotericism to preserve that world from transformation in the face of this confrontation.)\nModern thought is built on the opposite hope that by its success in transforming, enlightening and disenchanting the world and by its continual progress in explaining the kind of things it can explain, it will make all testimony to or experience of the kinds of things that it cannot explain to simply wither away. The world of traditional society, with its spirits, gods and poets, will simply disappear, refuted by history. In short modern thought hopes to legitimize itself precisely through the obliteration of pre-theoretic experience.\nThis is an inspiring conclusion, I think, though, as I have already said several times, I fear that the word esoteric unduly restricts the scope of the argument. Modesty, discretion, the ethics of concealment and unconcealment, the sense for the fitting or proportionate, the proper scope of prudence, the limitations of language, even the inherent contradictoriness of existence \u2013 all these are at some point in the book implications of the word esoteric. That\u2019s a lot of work for one word to do, especially when its primary sense evokes the modern bugaboos of hierarchy and elitism. One can only hope that this book will make other readers see how fruitful a concept it can be in the hands of a lucid and generous writer like Melzer.\nAnd what finally of the hope with which I began that I might get some insight into the question of whether Ivan Illich is an esoteric writer? Well, respecting all the provisos I have already made about the meaning of esoteric, I would answer with a qualified yes. Illich was certainly a writer who strictly limited his means, writing in a formal and highly condensed style that required considerable unpacking \u2013 it was a standing joke in the milieu we shared that some of his oldest friends had told him that it was only after I put out a book called Ivan Illich in Conversation in 1992 that they finally understood what he was talking about. It also true that he spoke only when he felt called to do so. The call might come from a friend or from some perceived public emergency but there was always an occasion, and no attempt to produce a summa or system that went beyond these occasions. Likewise, he made no systematic exposition of his Christian faith though it completely coloured his work. (I have never been happy with calling this \u201ca hidden purpose,\u201d as I quoted Todd Hartch as saying at the beginning of this review \u2013 there\u2019s more on this point in my earlier review of Hartch\u2019s book on this blog \u2013 but there\u2019s no doubt that it was not always fully revealed either.)\nSo I would say that Illich as a teacher and writer observed some of the ethics that Melzer associates with esotericism. I would also say that attention to the esoteric dimension in the New Testament contributes to an understanding of Illich\u2019s hypothesis that corruptio optimi pessima, the corruption of the best is the worst. Illich believed that the good news of the New Testament was something volatile and evanescent \u2013 the announcement of a freedom to love that could never be commanded or produced on demand. When this freedom was institutionalized and made to perform punctually and reliably, the best became the worst. The church, in this sense, is the essence of the exoteric, of that \u201cbrutal earnestness,\u201d as Illich once called it, which believes that the truth can be shouted from the rooftops without irony or reserve and with no fear that it will be denatured in the process. So, insofar as Illich holds that the explosiveness of the Gospel demanded more tact and less triumphalism than the church would eventually show, he can also be understood as on the side of the esoteric. And finally I would say that Melzer\u2019s book also contributed something to my understanding of the spirit of complementarity in Illich\u2019s work. Illich, for me, is the great critic of monism \u2013 not a very satisfactory word I know, but I don\u2019t know another for what I want to point to \u2013 a view of the world as a single homogeneous field reducible to a single principle or a single stuff. Illich wrote against the transformation of the duality of gender into the monism ofsex, against the overwhelming of vernacular life by professional service and expert opinion, against the reduction of imaginative talk to the uniform code of mediaspeak. Melzer\u2019s view that philosophy should properly be in a relationship of mutual restraint, of complementarity, with what he calls the pre-theoretic or commonsense world accords very well with this disposition of Illich\u2019s. Indeed what Melzer calls philosophy in its modern phase, marked as it is by universalism, political militance, and exoteric overreach, is very like what Illich sees as \u201cChristianity,\u201d trying to bring the whole world into line. But to pursue this thought would demand a complex adjustment of the vocabulary of Strauss and his school to the vocabulary of Illich and his tribe \u2013 school doesn\u2019t quite seem to fit in Illich\u2019s case \u2013 and that\u2019s a task for another day.\nNewer PostChrist and Anti-Christ in the Thought of Ivan Illich\nOlder PostNils Christie: In Memoriam",

        "title": "The world's top MBA program | Global Business",
        "raw_content": "In 2014, almost 250,000 prospective students took the GMAT, an entry exam required by most of the 16,000 business schools around the globe. Most apply for an MBA, the most recognized business degree. It\u2019s not only hard to get accepted but also quite expensive (tuition at Harvard costs almost $100k). Still, an MBA usually pays off; the salary increase post-MBA is almost 100% at top schools. And exactly there\u2019s the difference between myriads of MBA programs offered: the prestige of the business school and the corresponding post-degree salary.\nThe Financial Times Global MBA ranking is probably the most widespread measure of prestige of business schools. Every year a new ranking is published, and a new winner announced. Over the years, the same set of schools rotate among the top spots of the Ivy League table. Avi Gordon, author of MBA Admissions Strategy, states that reputation doesn\u2019t change every year but is built over many years. Hence my analysis of the Financial Times ranking over time (the earliest available ranking is from 1999). I picked the schools that were consistently in the top 10, resulting in eight schools, six American and two European.\nUnsurprisingly, the world\u2019s best known names Harvard, Stanford and Wharton make up the top three of the list. Wharton was leading the list but recently floundered. Harvard dipped after the financial crisis. And Stanford\u2019s rank is quite volatile. More interesting, however, is the rise of the two European schools INSEAD and London Business School, which, over the past two decades, moved in the top 5 (INSEAD was even crowned number one this year). This international competition is stirring up the traditionally US-heavy Ivy League and schools such as Booth, MIT and Columbia are losing out.\nRanking matters; attending a top 8 school on average leads to a 41% higher salary as compared to the top 100. (Causality is questionable since ranking is also partly determined by average salaries.) The expected salary among the top 8 ranges from $154k at LBS to $186k at Stanford, with INSEAD being somewhere in between with $167 (according to Financial Times). With its 10-month program, however, INSEAD is way more attractive than any of the other top schools, where you pay tuition and forgo salary for about 20 months on average. Other 1-year degree programs are ranked lower (e.g. Kellogg).\nThere are obviously many benefits of an MBA other than salary. Still, being the most international school and offering campus choices in Europe and Asia, INSEAD feels like the top choice for me. Looking forward to an awesome year!\nbusiness schools, MBA",

        "title": "Tiger Tales: A Detroit Tigers Blog: Playoff Preview: Tigers Versus Yankees",
        "raw_content": "The Detroit Tigers are making their first post-season appearance in 19 years after achieving their first winning record in 13 years. The Tigers started out the season 76-36 but ran out of gas down the stretch going 19-31 from August 8 through the end of the season. They ended up losing the division title to the Twins on the last day of the season. The New York Yankees, on the other hand, are making their 12th consecutive post-season appearance, remained steady all year long and go into the season with a healthy all-star line-up after a year of injuries. There is no doubt that the Yankees will be heavily favored nationally but the Tigers have a talented healthy pitching staff and I\u2019m expecting a good series. Here is my preview:\nRuns allowed per game\nThe Yankees were by far the most productive team in the league but finished 5th in the league in run prevention. Conversely, the Tigers topped the league in run prevention and finished 5th in run production. They say good pitching beats good hitting. I don\u2019t really believe that but good hitting doesn\u2019t beat good pitching either. On paper, these teams look fairly evenly matched overall.\nThe Yankees have no weaknesses as batters. They can hit for average, can draw walks and hit for power. The Tigers power is surprisingly comparable to the Yankees but they can not draw walks and thus rank near the bottom of the league in OBP. The plate discipline of the Yankees batters compared to the Tigers batters is the single biggest difference between the two teams and it is the thing that most worries me going into the series.\nI won\u2019t do a position by position run down because the Yankees beat the Tigers at every position offensively. The only exception may be shortstop where Carlos Guillen is much closer to Derek Jeter than most fans across the nation realize. I think there is a good chance that Guillen will come out of this series more famous than he is now. Even considering defense, the Tigers don\u2019t match the Yankees at any other position overall.\nThe FIP stats indicate that the Tigers and Yankees might not be as far apart in pitching as they are in overall run prevention. If you go by ERA, the Tigers look to have a far better staff but the closeness in FIP indicates that fielding may have something to do with it.\nThe Tigers go into the series with a starting rotation of Nate Robertson, Justin Verlander, Kenny Rogers and Jeremy Bonderman versus the Yankees quartet of Chien-Ming Wang, Mike Mussina, Randy Johnson and Jaret Wright. Neither team has an ace but I like the Tigers depth especially with Johnson hurting.\nThe bullpens should play a key role. A healthy Mariano Rivera is always very tough but he only pitched 4 times in September. He reportedly is fine but if the forearm prevents him from being a daily closer, the Yankees bullpen is vulnerable. Todd Jones is not dominant but had an excellent season as the Tigers closer and Joel Zumaya is far superior to any setup man for the Yankees. Zumaya could be a very big man in this series.\nHBT Fielding\nHBT Ground\nHBT Air\nFielding is harder to measure but both teams are strong defensively as the Tigers and Yankees are #1 and #2 in defensive efficiency. The Hardball Times looks at types of balls hit (ground ball, fly ball, pop up, line drive) in an attempt to break down DER further. These stats are explained further in an article by Dave Studeman. They indicate that the Tigers superior defense seems to be primarily due to fielding grounders while their ability to catch balls in their air is not very good. I find this breakdown very interesting and I want to research this further in the off-season.\nThe Yankees lost to teams that they were supposed to beat in each of the last 4 post-seasons. This year will be no different as I see the Tigers pitching their way to an upset in 5 games. The hitting hero and series MVP will be Carlos Guillen. The top pitcher will be Joel Zumaya.\nLee, I love your blog, and usually fall under the category of stat geek. But in a short playoff series unfortunately it's random to such small sample sizes that it rarely matters. Watching the Tigers fold like a tent for a month and a half and become the team they were the last 2 years leads me to believe they have absoluely no shot of winning even a game in this series. There free swinging offense, and the Yanks ability to wear down starting pitching is a mismatch of huge proportions. If Zumaya could go 4 in a game I'd give them a shot, short of that I just can't see it. Hope you're right though.\nyeah, I know what you are saying. The Yankee line-up is unbelievble. I'm usually a realist but the first playoff in 19 years is bringing out the fan in me.\nI think we just might see Zumaya go really long tomorrow. He isn't being used today so he should be well rested.",

Volvo announced its previous CEO, Olof Persson, is stepping down to be replaced by Martin Lundstedt, who has resigned as President and CEO of Scania. However, the transition is expected to take some time, so an interim CEO, Jan Gurander, has been appointed by Volvo in the interim.\nMartin Lundstedt, set to take over as new President and CEO of Volvo\n\u201cAfter three years of focus on product renewal, internal efficiency and restructuring, the Volvo Group is gradually entering a new phase with an intensified focus on growth and increased profitability,\u201d said Carl-Henric Svanberg, Chairman of the Board of AB Volvo, when making the announcement. \u201cThis will be achieved by further building on our leading brands, strong assets and engaged and skilled employees all over the world. Martin Lundstedt has 25 years of experience from development, production and sales within the commercial vehicle industry. He is also known for his winning leadership style.\u201d\nOlof Persson has been President and CEO the Volvo Group for almost four years. However, speculation in the Swedish press suggested Persson was to be replaced, a month ago. This was completely denied by Volvo at the time, with Svanberg quoted by Reuters as saying he was not engaged in an active search to find a replacement for Persson, who had led a drive to boost profitability over the past nearly four years.\n\u201cOlof Persson has with energy and determination carried out an extensive change of the Volvo Group,\u201d said Svanberg, this week. \u201cHe has focused Volvo on commercial vehicles and sold unrelated businesses and assets to a value of over $3.6 billion. He introduced a functional organization and paved the way for cost savings of $1.8 billion. He also concluded the agreement with one of China\u2019s largest truck manufacturers, Dongfeng, and led the company during the largest product renewal in the group\u2019s history. Today the Volvo Group is considerably better positioned to compete for leadership in our industry.\u201d\nMartin Lundstedt has spent his entire career at Scania, joining in 1992 as a trainee after obtaining an MSc in Industrial Management and Technology. He had led projects in Brazil, managed engine and truck production and headed the franchise and factory sales group before stepping into the considerable shoes of Leif Ostling, who had been in the job for 20 years, as President and CEO at Scania.\n\u201cWe respect Martin Lundstedt\u2019s decision to leave the company and wish to thank him for his successful efforts to further develop and strengthen Scania\u2019s strong market position during his years as President and CEO,\u201d said Dr. Martin Winterkorn, Chairman of the Scania Board of Directors.\nPer Hallberg, Acting President and CEO of Scania\nPer Hallberg, Executive Vice President, Head of Production and Logistics, has been announced as acting President and CEO, until a permanent successor to Lundstedt is found.

        "title": "Miniature Schnauzer - The Zwergschnauzer or the Dwarf Schnauzer - Dog Breed Answers",
        "raw_content": "Often called the Zwergschnauzer, the Mini Schnauzer or the Dwarf Schnauzer, the miniature schnauzer is a very spirited breed of dog that traces back to Germany. While these dogs originally were bred to eliminate rats, as well as other vermin, they are known today as beloved pets for the whole family. Although many other terriers are often fighters, miniature schnauzers are less included to fight. Since they barely shed, they are popular among individuals who have asthma or allergies. Just a few famous people who have owned this breed of dog include Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Dole, Bruce Lee and Bill Cosby.\nToday\u2019s miniature schnauzer is thought to be a descendant of the Standard Schnauzer, and some believe that its ancestry also includes the Poodle and the Affenpinscher. Paintings of the breed suggest that they have been around since the 1400s, although the breed was never recognized formally until the end of the 19th century. Heinrich Schott and Georg Riehl are thought to have miniaturized this breed by line breeding and cross breeding smaller puppies from Standard Schnauzer litters. A German stud book finally recorded its first miniature schnauzer in 1888, although the breed wouldn\u2019t appear at a dog show until 1899.\nIn the 1920s, breeders in North America started to breed mini schnauzers, and these dogs have continued to become more popular. Standard and miniature schnauzers were included in the Wirehaired Pinscher Club of America, which was started in 1925. Later, all schnauzers were moved to the Terrier Group, although the breed wasn\u2019t split into the standard and miniature schnauzer until 1927. The American Miniature Schnauzer Club was created independent of the Schnauzer Club of America in 1933, and both breeds were included in the AKC\u2019s Terrier Group. However, in 1945, the Standard schnauzer was moved to the AKC\u2019s Working Group, although the miniature schnauzer continues to be included in the AKC\u2019s Terrier Group today.\nOriginally, this breed was developed to be a dog that worked on farms, and they were specifically bred to kill rats. However, while they were raised on farms, these dogs still do well in urban environments. Since they are so small, miniature schnauzers do well in city homes and small apartments. Today, the breed continues to do well as a watch dog and guard dog, and their intelligence makes them a popular dog in rally and obedience trials.\nWhile the miniature schnauzer is quite small, this breed is also square and sturdy. They have the very distinct schnauzer beard, bushy eyebrows, as well as a wiry coat. The coat comes in several different colors, including salt and pepper, white, silver and black and black. Their ears are high set on their skull and may be uncropped or cropped. Mini schnauzers also have a blunt, strong muzzle on a rectangular head. The breed\u2019s tail is high, carried erect and is generally docked.\nUsually an adult miniature schnauzer is between 12 to 14 inches tall and they should have a square proportion. Adult mini schnauzers usually weigh from 11 to 20 pounds.\nEven though the miniature schnauzer is small, they have a huge personality. They enjoy a lot of attention and they think they are in charge. These sturdy dogs have plenty of spunk and love playing and running outside with their owners. These smart dogs often use their intelligence for mischief, such as opening closets or cabinets to get to toys or food. They usually do well with other pets, but they may chase cats for fun.\nSince miniature schnauzers are very intelligent, they are highly trainable. However, they can be stubborn and independent, so it is important that the individual training the dog is assertive and calm. For the best results, training should be started when this dog is still a puppy. Positive reinforcement and food motivate this breed, and it\u2019s best to keep sessions varied and short, since this breed may get bored with repetition.\nThe miniature schnauzer is a terrier and exhibits all the common terrier traits, such as chasing, digging, suspiciousness to strangers and excessive barking. It is important to make sure that these dogs are socialized and exercised regularly to avoid problems. However, you won\u2019t be able to train away their barking, since they are great watch dogs.\nTo keep a miniature schnauzer looking good, grooming should be done every 5-8 weeks. Clipping these dogs can be difficult, so many individuals choose to take their dogs to a professional groomer. Dogs that will be shown must be hand stripped, which can take a lot of time. However, if you don\u2019t plan to show your miniature schnauzer, there is no need for hand stripping. The breed does not shed very much, but hair that gets loose needs to be brushed out. After meals, it is important to wash out the beard of miniature schnauzers.\nToday, the miniature schnauzer is mainly kept as family pets. However, these dogs originally had working roles, working on farms by herding animals and eliminating rats and other types of vermin. Some people still use this breed for ratting, although it\u2019s fairly uncommon today.\nThe miniature schnauzer generally lives to be between 12-15 years old. In general, the breed is quite healthy, however, some of these dogs may deal with health problems that come with high levels of fat. One such problem is hyperlipidemia, a condition that may increase the risk of pancreatitis. Bladder stones, eye problems and diabetes may also occur, although these problems may be avoided by ensuring the breed eats unsweetened, low-fat foods.\nComedone syndrome is also a common problem among the miniature schnauzer. This condition results in bumps filled with pus that generally occur on the dog\u2019s back. Their ears are prone to infections as well, especially in miniature schnauzers that have uncropped ears.\nSome of the other common health concerns seen among miniature schnauzers include:\nVon Willebrand syndrome\nPlumonic stenosis",

        "raw_content": "She took his hand and led him to the bed. She sat him down and stood in front of him. \"You need to try to listen calmly. Mulder, the baby is full term, it is not breech and the head is fully engaged in the birth canal.\" He managed not to look away. \"All you have to do is keep me company for a while, then when it\u2019s time, take the baby as I push it out. You\u2019re involvement is really a support role, and I know you know how to support me. You\u2019ve been doing it for years.\"\nHe swallowed hard and nodded, afraid to speak lest his voice shake. She needed to get him to calm down, because soon she\u2019d need him to be calm for her. She sat beside him then and took both hands into hers. \"Are you ready to hear this?\"\nHe nodded again. \"Scully, I\u2019ll do whatever you need.\"\nShe smiled. \"I know. Okay, we\u2019ve got time, so I\u2019ll go over this but then you ask any questions you have, and ask them as many times as you need to. I\u2019ll tell you when I need to push, you\u2019ll have to examine me and see if I\u2019m fully dilated, I\u2019ll show you that later. Then when the head is out, you\u2019ll have to support it and stroke down on the nostrils to help expel the fluid so he can breathe. He\u2019ll probably start to cry then, don\u2019t panic if he doesn\u2019t. You\u2019ll have to check to make certain the cord isn\u2019t around his throat. If it is, you can just gently pull it from around him \u2013 Mulder, don\u2019t worry about that, okay? Once all of that has happened, I\u2019ll have to push again. The baby will rotate in your hands, don\u2019t pull or push or try to help, just support the head and neck. The shoulders will come out one at a time, after they\u2019re out, the baby can come very fast. You won\u2019t drop him, will you?\" She smiled gently.\nHis eyes widened. Shit, she\u2019d been trying to lighten his mood, now she\u2019d given him something else to fear.\nShe sighed and continued, \"I\u2019ve already sterilized the scissors and some dental floss. When the baby\u2019s free of me, you\u2019ll have to tie off the cord with the floss, about three inches from the baby\u2019s stomach and again three inches down from there. When the cord stops pulsing, you just cut it. There are no nerves in it, there\u2019s no pain involved. Okay?\" He nodded, his eyes were possibly less fearful. This was something he could understand.\n\"Mulder I know blood is not your thing, but there will be quite a bit of it. Please don\u2019t panic, it\u2019s normal. When I deliver the afterbirth, that is quite, well, messy. Just try not to think about it. If I tear when the head or shoulders are delivered, I\u2019ll heal. It\u2019s going to be okay.\"\nTear? God, he was suppose to just be supportive while she was going through this? Great. He\u2019d rather go bungee jumping without a rope. \"Scully, I\u2019ll. . . Scully? Are you having a contraction? Breathe Scully, come on breathe.\"\nShe looked at him, mildly amazed. He\u2019d been ready to run from the room, but now that she needed him he was fully in charge, supporting her as she\u2019d known he would. He appeared completely calm and knowledgeable. She closed her eyes, letting him hold her, knowing she\u2019d made the correct choice.\nWhen the contraction eased, she had him help her to her feet. \"I need to be up and walking as long as I can. It\u2019ll speed things up hopefully. I\u2019d really like for this part to be over.\"\nThey walked slowly into the living room. \"Tell me what you meant, plots within plots.\"\n\"We don\u2019t have to talk about that now.\"\n\"Maybe not, and I might not remember everything you say, but I\u2019d like to hear your voice. That tone you get when you\u2019re explaining something out of this world to me. I\u2019ve missed that.\"\n\"What tone? I don\u2019t have a tone.\"\n\"Yeah, that one. Go on.\" She smiled.\nNo way he was going to discuss what he was thinking about Sam and the whole deal they had tricked her into. Instead he went over some cases he had worked on without her this past year. Officially the X-Files were closed, but closing the files had not halted strange things from happening. And he was still the resident spooky agent that had the expertise.\nAt first she supplied the arguments that she always had, but as the contractions grew in frequency and intensity she grew quieter, just listening to his voice. When she grew tired she would perch on the barstool, having forsaken the couch early in the process. She took a short nap at one point, but refused to try that again, after having a contraction jerk her awake without being prepared for it. He silently agreed and tried to make sure she was prepared as each wave swept over her.\nHis estimation of her strength grew as the time slowly passed. He would have been on his knees begging for medication a long time ago. She could no longer be on her feet alone, letting him support her as she walked and take over completely during the contractions.\nHis fear, which had never left, was beginning to resurface as this pain she was in dragged on. This contraction now was truly frightening; he\u2019d do anything to take the pain away.\nWhen it finally ended she didn\u2019t attempt to draw away from him as she had been doing. He realized she was speaking and he leaned over so that she would only have to whisper.\n\"I need to lie down.\" He closed his eyes in relief, watching her continue this on her feet wasn\u2019t helping either of them. Without asking he lifted her into his arms and carried her to the bedroom. She sank into his chest relinquishing control, as she had never done before since he had known her.\nShe seemed more comfortable lying on her side, and he felt able to leave her for a moment to get a cool cloth and some ice for her to suck on. Her wardrobe since leaving her home had consisted of the dress she had been wearing, and the robe from the hotel. Now she opted for nudity, she was perspiring freely from her efforts, her hair curling totally out of control.\nHe was startled at her choice, she who had always been so modest around him, until he realized the degree of comfort she felt in his presence. This wasn\u2019t sexual, not in the most common use of the word. This was much more primal. He was suddenly aware how deeply in love he was with this woman. He must have always known for it to be so all consuming, but the barriers were down now. If it was strange that the first time he ever saw her nude was as she delivered their child, well, that was the way things went with them. Accept it and move on.\n\"Right here Sweetheart.\" The endearment slipped out without either seeming to notice.\n\"I know you\u2019re not looking forward to this, but you need to check and see how far I\u2019ve dilated. Don\u2019t make faces at me, and hurry before I have another contraction.\"\nHe couldn\u2019t remember when he\u2019d placed rubber gloves in his shaving kit, had to be when she was with him. It didn\u2019t matter, he was just glad they were here now.\nHe was easily reminded of why he'd chosen psychology over psychiatry. He hadn\u2019t wanted a medical degree. Better to leave this to people who knew what they were doing. Pull yourself together, Mulder, this is Scully. You\u2019ll do whatever needs to be done.\n\"If I\u2019m doing this right you\u2019re close Scully. At least nine centimeters.\"\n\"Good, because the urge to push is more than I can fight any longer. Can you feel the baby\u2019s head?\" She sounded calmer than she felt, even to herself. No wonder they\u2019d called her the ice queen, but they had never seen her like this. No one had ever seen her like this except him.\n\"Yes.\" It was an awed whisper. \"My god, it\u2019s right here.\"\n\"Not quite. Help me sit up, I\u2019ll need to push against the headboard. Help me arrange the pillows.\"\n\"I\u2019ve got you.\" He helped her find a position that was supported if not comfortable.\n\"Go get the supplies. Mulder, hurry, I need you here.\" Since the same was true of him, he lost no time bringing the sterilized instruments from the kitchen, then the towels from the bathroom.\n\"Okay Scully. Tell me what you need.\"\n\"On the next contraction I\u2019ll push. Give me your hand.\"\nForty-five minutes later she collapsed back against the pillows again. \"I can\u2019t.\" She gasped. \"I can\u2019t do this. Mulder let me die.\"\nHis heart stumbled, then gave a triple beat and terror engulfed his body. \"Scully. Scully there\u2019s nothing you can\u2019t do. I need you to concentrate for just a minute. Think like a doctor Scully. Tell me what I can do to help you. Please Scully.\" He couldn\u2019t keep his voice completely steady.\nShe groaned as another contraction took over her body, but when it subsided, she managed to speak. \"Help me push.\" He nodded, not sure what that meant. She put his hands on her stomach and his eyes widened, but he nodded again.\nDuring the next contraction they pushed together, and the next. The suddenness of the baby\u2019s movement startled them both. He scrambled back to his original position and managed to smile up at her. \"I always figured you for a redhead.\"\n\"Can you see the head?\"\n\"Yeah. A lot of dark hair. Please Scully, one more time.\"\nShe raised herself on her arms again. He watched as the head emerged, supporting it as she had instructed him. He stroked the nostrils and wiped one of the towels over the mouth.\n\"The cord?\"\n\"No, Scully. I don\u2019t see it.\" She nodded and bore down again. A shoulder emerged, the child turning within her to bring the other shoulder out. The rest of the child slid out into his hands. Scully collapsed back against the head of the bed trembling.\nMulder stared down at his hands, at the newborn that had now begun to scream. The eyes were shut and the face screwed up in fury. It was covered in blood and mucus and he\u2019d never seen anything more beautiful in his entire life.\n\"It\u2019s a, it\u2019s a girl Scully.\"\nShe opened her eyes. \"A girl?\"\n\"Well, I don\u2019t want to admit how long it\u2019s been since I\u2019ve looked at one, but I\u2019m pretty sure that\u2019s what I\u2019m seeing.\"\nShe stretched her arms out to him and he placed the squalling infant on her stomach. \"You need to tie off the cord, and cut it.\"\nHe was already reaching for the floss. She kept her hand on the baby, soothing it as he cut the cord. Then he wrapped the softest of the towels around her and brought her up to Scully\u2019s arms.\n\"You do beautiful work Scully.\" Scully let her eyes close as her head fell back against the headboard. \"Are you okay?\"\nShe nodded and brought the child closer to her breasts. The baby didn\u2019t wait for a second invitation, latching onto her breast with a ferocious appetite. Scully\u2019s eyes flew open as she gasped. \"Definitely your child, Mulder.\" She managed to get out.\n\"Only in my dreams, Scully.\"\nThat caught her off guard and she looked into his eyes blushing. \"We, uh, we still have work to do. You. . . you need to massage my stomach. We need to start the contractions again.\"\nHe nodded and watched her nurse the child as he first caressed, then at her insistence massaged her more firmly. When she delivered the placenta she really thought for the first time she was going to lose him.\n\"Mulder, put your head down. I still need you. Please, take a deep breath.\" He complied and managed to cover the afterbirth with a towel for her to check later. \"You okay?\"\nHe nodded, giving her an abashed grin. \"You\u2019re the better doctor, Scully.\"\n\"You do okay. Think you could clean her up? No soap, just warm water.\"\n\"Yeah, you rest.\"\n\"No instructions or advice?\" She grinned.\n\"She\u2019s my daughter. I\u2019ll figure it out.\" Tears again overflowed her eyes. \"Let me make you comfortable.\" He helped her lay down and took the towels from around her, placing a fresh one under her. \"Sleep. I\u2019ll be right here.\" He kissed her forehead and pulled the sheet over her.\nThe baby was asleep and Mulder was more gentle than he was cleansing. He managed to dress her, improvising a diaper and keeping her warm. He found keeping her against his chest was comforting to him and she seemed to accept it as her due.\nHe couldn\u2019t stay out of the bedroom, so he took her in there to wait for Scully to wake. When she did it was to the sight of Mulder investigating the newborn. The baby opened her eyes and Mulder\u2019s widened.\n\"Mulder? What? What\u2019s wrong!\"\nHe glanced up and met her eyes then returned his gaze to the child. \"Samantha. She looks like Samantha.\" She took a deep breath, melting into the look he had locked on their daughter.\n\"Come here.\" She held out her hand to him. He rose and joined her on the bed. \"I hadn\u2019t thought much about girl\u2019s names, Mulder. I just kind of thought I was carrying your son. Do you want to name her Samantha?\"\n\"No. No, she needs her own name. I\u2019m thinking Katherine.\"\n\"It\u2019s perfect, naming her for the strongest person I know.\"\nScully swallowed, she\u2019d be so happy when her hormones were under some sort of control again. \"Katherine. Katherine Ann.\"\nHe looked up and after a second nodded. \"Katherine Ann.\" She watched as the baby began nuzzling Mulder\u2019s chest, becoming agitated.\n\"I think she\u2019s hungry again.\"\nHe grinned, \"You wanna handle that?\" At her nod he laid the baby beside her on the bed and helped her into a more comfortable position.\n\"What\u2019s she wearing?\"\n\"Kitchen attire. I\u2019m going to have to make a run to the store sometime.\"\n\"Could you get me a big glass of water?\"\n\"Sure, but you need food. You haven\u2019t eaten since last night.\"\n\"You\u2019re right. But I really don\u2019t want you to leave me. Not yet.\"\n\"Are you okay? I mean, is there something. . . \"\n\"No. I\u2019m fine. I just don\u2019t want to be alone with her.\" He caressed her cheek and nodded. He got her water and placed an order for Chinese to be delivered. \"She\u2019s asleep again.\"\n\"Getting born really wears a person out.\" He took the baby and settled her on the bed he\u2019d made for her. \"You\u2019ll feel better after you\u2019re cleaned up too.\"\n\"I\u2019d really like a shower.\"\n\"A shower? Can you stand?\"\n\"Not for long. But you\u2019re right, I would feel better. Would you help me?\"\n\"Of course. Let me get the water going.\" He helped her into the bathroom. She could walk, but barely. He got her in the shower and after only a moment\u2019s hesitation stripped himself and joined her.\n\"Mulder! What are you. . ? \" He took the washcloth from her.\n\"Lean on me. It won\u2019t take as long.\" Their eyes locked and she settled herself against his chest. He even washed her hair. Then as soon as possible settled her back in the bed, this time wearing her robe. He dressed and was headed for the kitchen when he heard the knock on the door. He relaxed when he looked through the peephole. Food, finally.\nHe opened the door and let the kid in. He found his wallet and pulled out some cash. \"Listen, you in a hurry?\"\n\"Nyah, it\u2019s a slow night. Why?\"\nMulder pulled out a $50 bill and the kid began to look suspicious. \"My wife\u2019s not well. I don\u2019t want to leave her alone with the kid. Could you pick up some supplies \u2013 diapers, things like that?\"\nThe kid relaxed. \"Yeah, I guess. What size diapers?\"\n\"Uh, newborn.\" Now there was a question he\u2019d never been asked before.\n\"Sure. Anything else?\"\n\"Yeah, maybe some eggs and bread. Oh hey, could you get some rocky road ice cream for her?\"\nThe kid grinned. \"Yeah. There\u2019s a place around the corner. I won\u2019t be long.\"\nMulder took the food into the bedroom and they ate ravenously. \"I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever been this hungry, Mulder.\"\n\"You probably never worked that hard before. I know I\u2019ve never seen anything like it.\" She jumped as the doorbell rang. \"It\u2019s okay. Just some supplies we need. Be right back.\"\nHe checked and opened the door to the young man again. He was carrying a couple of grocery bags. Mulder could see the ice cream near the top. They put the supplies on the kitchen table. He pulled some things out of the bag and spotted the sanitary pads near the bottom.\nHe glanced up at the boy, who shrugged. \"I\u2019m the oldest of six and my wife just had a baby. Well, here\u2019s your change.\" He didn\u2019t look like he could possibly be twenty years old. He was already a father?\n\"It\u2019s yours.\"\n\"That\u2019s almost $30.\"\n\"And more than worth it.\"\n\"Look, I\u2019m Gary. If you. . . if you need anything just give me a call. Here\u2019s my beeper number. If I\u2019m at work I can still swing by here.\"\n\"Thanks Gary. Listen, one more thing. Please don\u2019t mention this to anyone.\"\nGary nodded. \"I better get back. Thanks.\"\n\"You too. I\u2019ll call.\"\nHe returned to the bedroom with dishes of ice cream and most of the supplies.\nThe baby woke them a couple of times during the night, but it was mostly uneventful. He made breakfast the next morning, but she insisted on getting up.\n\"Okay Mulder. You avoided answering me yesterday, and with everything else going on I let you get away with it. Now I need to know what you think is going on.\"\n\"Scully, I can\u2019t prove anything.\"\n\"You usually can\u2019t until I get involved.\" She smiled at him. \"Talk to me. Why do you think I was duped and you weren\u2019t in danger?\"\n\"It\u2019s mostly a feeling \u2013 it just feels like a plan to win your cooperation. A plan where you would be willing to bear my child.\"\nShe looked at him for a moment. \"They didn\u2019t need an elaborate plan for that, Mulder.\"\nThat statement caught his attention. \"Do you mean that?\"\n\"You should know I do. In case you\u2019re wondering, she is yours. I insisted on testing before I allowed the procedure.\"\n\"I wasn\u2019t wondering. I can see us both in her.\"\n\"But why would they care if you and I had a child?\"\n\"Because we\u2019ve both been exposed to the black cancer, both been given an antidote. You in Antarctica, me in Russia. They were possibly different variations of the vaccine. They needed to find our if it could be passed on. My guess would be they\u2019ve tried this before and found they needed you, with your immune system, to carry the baby, that their procedures wouldn\u2019t work.\"\n\"So she\u2019s what they really want.\"\n\"Yes, and I don\u2019t think you would ever have seen her. They would have told you she died at birth, or they would have killed you if they didn\u2019t think they needed you any longer.\"\n\"So they\u2019ll be looking for her.\" He nodded. \"How do we keep her safe?\"\n\"I\u2019m working on that. I don\u2019t think they\u2019ll find us here. When you can travel I\u2019m going to take you both back to DC.\"\n\"Mom\u2019s?\"\n\"No. I want you to stay with the guys. They can keep you hidden, then I\u2019ll be free to move around, stir things up, and see what shakes out.\"\n\"Do you really think you can keep her safe?\"\n\"I\u2019m going to keep both of you safe. That\u2019s a promise.\"\n\"Mulder, we could start out today.\"\n\"No. The memory of yesterday may have faded for you, but not me. You need more recovery time.\"\nShe took a steadying breath. He was right, she wasn\u2019t up to a 16-hour car ride, not yet. And the sooner he took her to Byers the sooner they\u2019d be separated again. She definitely wasn\u2019t ready for that.",

Without having a plan in place for the business, those involved in the business and the individual\u2019s relatives may be left scrambling trying to figure out how to move forward; in the worst cases, an absence of a plan can lead to contentious legal battles in which relatives or business partners vie to take over the business in question. It\u2019s important to note that, even when an individual outlines what is to be done with his business in his will, such stipulations can also be the source of contentious legal battles if any party disputes the will by, for instance, alleging that there is a newer will in place or that the will was authorized under duress.\nRegardless of how business partner disputes arise after the passing of a loved one, it\u2019s essential that surviving relatives and business partners work with the experienced Denver business dispute lawyer at Donald Glenn Peterson Attorney at Law to ensure that:\nThey have the best possible legal representation in any impending court proceedings.\nTheir rights and best interests regarding the business are fully protected at every stage of the legal process.\nThey have the best chances of achieving an optimal outcome to the case as efficiently as possible.\nConsulting with an Experienced Denver Business Dispute Lawyer\nIf you are facing a business partner dispute of any kind, the Denver business dispute lawyer at Donald Glenn Peterson Attorney at Law is here to help you aggressively protect your rights at every stage of the complicated legal process.

        "title": "I run because...: NYC Marathon - Leave your bags at home",
        "raw_content": "72 days before the running of this year's New York City Marathon, race organizers (NYRR) announced that there would not be a baggage check for the race to \"ease finish-line congestion.\" You can read the official announcement here. Immediately, there was an uproar of angry comments on Twitter and Facebook from runners about this new policy and who could blame them?\nWe have grown accustom to having a gear check at most - heck, if not all - major road races. To think that one of the world's largest marathons is getting rid of their baggage check is pretty crazy. Having run the NYC Marathon in 2010, I agree with NYRR that the congestion after the race is pretty horrendous. I also agree that something should be done to fix this issue. But, surely there is a better way to do it then this?\nThis new policy really hurts the runners that are traveling to this race alone. They don't have the option of having their friends and/or family hold on to their belongings at the finish line. For them, they are stuck wearing their racing gear, probably now full of sweat, until they make it back to their hotel. I don't know about you, but the first thing I want to do after a marathon is get out of my nasty running clothes and throw on a pair of comfy flats.\nFrom the NYC Marathon website:\nIn order to minimize inconvenience to our runners, NYRR has invested in a number of enhancements, including:\nThe Marathon Finish Line Poncho, a water-repellent, hooded, and fleece-lined garment to be handed out to every finisher\nEstablishing NYRR \"Call Home\" stations at the start and post-finish so runners can communicate with friends and family\nA new and improved Family Reunion area near the runner exit\nIncreasing the number of wave starts from three to four to reduce runner density along the course and at the finish line.\nMy thoughts? I hope those ponchos are as luxurious as they sound. However, something tells me when you have to buy 45,000+ of those things, they aren't going to be that nice. Sure, they might keep you dry (well, keep you from getting more wet since your running attire will probably be sweat-laden). But, I wonder how \"warm\" they will be?\n\"Call Home\" stations? Has any other marathon ever done this before? So, instead of waiting in line to get your checked baggage, you get to wait in a line to use a phone that thousands of other sweaty faces have touched? Fun.\nMaybe I'm making a bigger deal out of this than need be? But, I really think NYRR could have come up with a better solution than this. I also don't like how NYRR introduced this new policy MONTHS after the field was set. Something this big should have been mentioned when the lottery was still open. I think it's unfair to drop something like this on the runners so close to race day. In my opinion, they should have waited until 2013 to implement this policy.\nAs you can tell, I'm a little heated about this and I'm not even running in the race! So, I'd like to open the floor to all of you, especially if you're running the marathon. What are your thoughts on the 'No-Baggage Policy' for the NYC Marathon? Agree? Disagree? Don't care? I'd love to hear from you!\ninspirunning August 24, 2012 at 8:23 AM\nI'm running it this year, for the first time. I was shocked to hear the news, but it didn't bother me that much. I don't mind dumping my clothes for donation. I have family that will be at the finish. yeah, it's not ideal, but it won't ruin my experience I don't think. For those who don't have someone at the finish line with fresh gear are the ones I feel sorry for. That will suck.\nBill Fine August 24, 2012 at 10:16 AM\nI think it stinks.....my only \"big city\" marathon experience has been Boston, and I thought the BAA did a terrific job managing the post-finish \"baggage claim\" areas.....spread them out wide enough that no one area got too congested. Obviously, runners will adjust to the new policy, but I hope this doesn't start to catch on with other race organizers.....",

And yet, according to a recent study by the Pew Research Center, media, academic, technology, and publishing professionals have increasingly come to view the Internet as a cesspool of hate speech, anger, and trolls.\nMuch of what arrives on our digital doorstep these days is best described as \u201cfake news\u201d: hoax stories, propaganda, and other forms of misinformation. But while \u201cfake news\u201d is a useful label for a very real problem, it does not tell us if we are in fact living in a \u201cpost-truth\u201d world; and, if so, whom we should hold responsible. To answer those questions, we need to examine the fake-news infrastructure.\nMany of the anonymous political hobbyists and social hackers who are creating and disseminating fake news do so on Reddit. With around 300 million monthly users globally, Reddit is the fourth most visited website in the US, and eighth in the world, as of this month.\nA casual observer who visits Reddit will find what looks like a Web 1.0 message board that is ridden with near-indecipherable jargon and acronyms, such as \u201cHH,\ufffd\ufffd \u201ccucks,\u201d \u201ccentipedes,\u201d and \u201cGod Emperor of the Internet.\u201d These are insider code words that did not emerge accidentally. They respectively refer to \u201cHeil Hitler,\u201d critics of the so-called alt-right, Trump supporters, and, of course, Trump himself.\nDespite being wildly popular, Reddit is mentioned in mainstream media coverage only when its most controversial conversations boil over, as occurred in 2008, when a Reddit subpage (or subreddit) called \u201cJailbait\u201d provided a platform for users to exchange child pornography. Following a public outcry, Reddit banned the subreddit in 2011, as it did again when the public took notice of a subreddit about stalking women called \u201cCreepShots.\u201d\nStill, misogyny and hate speech have continued to flow freely on the site. In an ugly masquerade of free speech, Reddit has hosted subreddits called \u201cBeatingWomen,\u201d \u201cFatPeopleHate,\u201d and \u201cThe Chimpire\u201d (promoting racism). Most recently, a \u201cPizzagate\u201d subreddit hosted conspiracy theorists claiming that Hillary Clinton ran a child pornography ring out of a pizza restaurant in Washington, DC. When Edgar Maddison Welch, armed with an AR-15, arrived at the establishment and started firing off rounds, the media finally, but only temporarily, took notice of Reddit\u2019s role in the fake-news phenomenon.\nReddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, for his part, doesn\u2019t seem to spend much time worrying about the potential dangers posed by his website. When Ohanian delivered a keynote address at the popular SXSW Interactive Festival in Austin, Texas, this year, he didn\u2019t talk about the line between free speech and hate speech. Nor did he mention the infamous subreddit \u201cThe_Donald,\u201d which has more than 300,000 registered users, and may have played a critical role in electing Donald Trump. Instead, he spoke about a Reddit user called \u201cShitty Watercolour,\u201d and he declared \u201cpseudonymity\u201d to be the hallmark of freedom and uncensored speech. During an \u201cAsk Me Anything\u201d session after his speech, Ohanian took no questions about Pizzagate, \u201cThe_Donald,\u201d or hate speech.\nTo be sure, Reddit isn\u2019t the only supporter of the kind of online anonymity that allows users to distribute hate speech and fake news without consequences. And there are those who worry that cleaning up Reddit will only drive the trolls underground to less public sites like Voat. But while other large online platforms such as Facebook are taking steps to address the problem, Reddit remains defiant.\nReddit\u2019s relative immunity from criticism may help to explain its indifference. As a top-ten site for US web traffic, it acts as a major conduit for media outlets, which use it to increase their page views, and thus their advertising revenues.\nReddit itself is owned by some familiar names. Its single largest shareholder is Advance Publications, the parent company of Cond\u00e9 Nast; and its other investors include Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel, Sam Altman, Ron Conway, Snoop Dogg, Jared Leto, and Josh Kushner, the brother of White House Senior Adviser Jared Kushner. Sadly, none of these high-profile investors seems to have objected to Reddit\u2019s hosting of subreddits called \u201cWhiteNationalism,\u201d \u201crapeisfun,\u201d \u201cBurningKids,\u201d \u201ccutefemalecorpses,\u201d and so on.\nFake news is a symptom of a larger problem. With advertising revenues declining, media organizations are increasingly desperate for clicks. Most readers do not hesitate to share or re-tweet headlines that support their own biases and beliefs. And technology companies shrug and claim that they are \u201cjust a platform,\u201d while they reap profits from the traffic that fake news brings in.\nSo, what can news consumers do to push back against fake news? For starters, we should be demanding that trusted media outlets avoid hosting their content on anonymous sites like Reddit. And we should apply more pressure on companies like Advance Publications to take responsibility for the sites they own and what happens there.\nAbove all, that means rolling back the culture of digital anonymity that facilitates hate speech and misinformation. Digital platforms should require those who espouse ideas and share information to sign their names to their output. Pseudonyms are for fiction writers.",

        "raw_content": "Advancing the Sustainable Development Agenda\nToday\u2019s millennials are more purpose-driven than their parents\u2019 generation and their consumption patterns will reward corporate good behaviour, argued business leaders gathered in Davos to map progress on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), framed by the United Nations in 2015 to achieve ambitious targets by 2030, including an end to extreme poverty and hunger.\nIf businesses cannot convince us they are contributing to making a better world, why have them in the first place, asked Paul Polman, Chief Executive Officer of Unilever. \u201cI see the SDGs as a moral compass at a time when global governance is weak,\u201d he said. \u201cOur true role in business is to serve society,\u201d added Mark Cutifani, Chief Executive Officer of the mining giant Anglo American, whose chief concern has become: \u201cHow do our products make life better?\u201d\nThe CEOs\u2019 words came as music to the ears of development and civil society actors in the room. It\u2019s perhaps surprising to hear businessmen speak in such ethical terms. But to be fair, sustainable development makes good business sense, too. While the cost of implementing the 17 goals has been slated at $3 trillion-$4 trillion a year, the estimated annual benefits by 2030 will add up to $12 trillion-$13 trillion. In other words, sustainable development is a great investment.\nPolman suggested that 800 million people going hungry or 1.8 million children dying of preventable diseases offer \u201ctremendous opportunities for the private sector\u201d. And with governments currently contributing just $160 billion a year in development funding, there is a massive funding hole that only corporates can fill. \u201cWe\u2019re getting to a point where the cost of not acting is higher than the cost of acting,\u201d he said.\nWhile a combination of pressure from millennials and the chance to boost the bottom line might best motivate the private sector to embrace sustainable development, progress on the SDGs will only happen through a broader coalition of corporates, civil society, NGOs and government.\nHelle Thorning-Schmidt, Chief Executive Officer of Save the Children International, pointed to the success of a collaboration between her organization, Unilever, vanilla supplier Symrise and the German government in boosting the livelihoods of vanilla farmers and their communities in Madagascar. However, agencies are lagging on delivering the SDGs and progress needs to step up. According to Thorning-Schmidt, those participating in the Annual Meeting should use the SDGs as a framework for the kind of responsive and responsible leadership which the World Economic Forum is calling for.\nPolman put it more bluntly when he said: \u201cThe shortage is in moral leadership.\u201d Unilever is reaching out to 1,000 CEOs to encourage their companies to internalize the SDGs and prioritize the goals within their corporate strategies. We need the markets to start working, said Polman, to create the new financial tools such as green bonds and blended financing that will deliver on the goals.\nSpeaking on behalf of the indigenous women of Chad, Hindou Oumarou Ibrahim echoed the urgency of partnerships and emphasized the vital role women play in local decision-making; for example, where the best locations are for a village water point. She brought the conversation back down to earth by emphasizing what the SDGs mean to her community. \u201cFor us, the SDGs mean life, livelihoods and equity \u2013 giving everybody an equal chance\u201d. Equity of opportunity brings people together, she said, reducing resource-related conflicts and increasing the chances of peace and security.",

        "raw_content": "Humans have caused surprising changes to the planet that will be visible billions of years from now\nHumans have only been on Earth for a minute fraction of the time the planet has existed. Yet everywhere you look, we have left a trace of our presence.\nWe've reshaped the landscape by clearing forests and building new islands, altered the makeup of the atmosphere by driving cars and running factories, and even modified the types of rocks that will be found millions of years from now.\nAccording to a recent study, our impact has been so extreme that it makes the appearance of oxygen \u2014 an event that geologists call the Great Oxidation \u2014 look trivial.\nScientists call our geologic epoch the Anthropocene \u2014 it began around the time we detonated the first atomic bomb and coated the planet with radioactive particles.\n\"If the Great Oxidation ... was a 'punctuation event' in Earth's history, the rapid and extensive geological impact of the Anthropocene is an exclamation mark,\" Robert Hazen , a mineralogist and astrobiologist at the Carnegie Institution for Science's Geophysical Laboratory, told Business Insider.\nWhile there is plenty of evidence of humans' impact on the planet that we can easily observe \u2014 the construction of cities, a changing global climate, the extinction of other species \u2014 one of the most dramatic effects is invisible to most people.\nDisturbing the Earth's surface\nHazen helped write a recent paper that catalogued for the first time the hundreds of new minerals that humans have left behind . The scientists' work suggested that humans are responsible for roughly 4% of all the minerals on Earth \u2014 the most new materials to show up in the geologic record since oxygen appeared more than 2.2 billion years ago.\nThese materials will be visible for millions or even billions of years and will \"mark our age as different from all that came before,\" said Edward Grew, a professor of earth and climate sciences at the University of Maine and one of Hazen's co-authors.\nHuman activities are responsible for at least 208 brand-new minerals. Many of those have formed along the walls of mines, where cool, moist air reacts with sooty particles of iron ore.\n\"When one looks at a mine, it\u2019s really a disturbance of the Earth\u2019s surface,\" Grew said.\nIn a mine, dozens of activities can give rise to new minerals \u2014 including the dumping of large amounts of iron or copper ore, the build-up of water along mine tunnel walls, and even fires inside mines.\nSome of the new minerals that have resulted from human activity are eye-catchingly beautiful. On a copper mining tool at the Rowley Mine in Maricopa County, Arizona, Hazen and his colleagues found a glowing, sea-colored mineral called simonkolleite.\n\"You\u2019re just stirring a pot in a way, exposing ores to a different environment and getting these new minerals to form,\" Grew said.\nIn addition to creating new minerals, humans are also moving around existing ones and shifting how they are distributed globally.\nMinerals like abhurite, which are essentially the result of corrosion that happens after a shipwreck or another human-made disaster, can be found across the planet. Hazen and his colleagues found a piece of abhurite from the wreckage of the SS Cheerful, which sunk in 1885 near Cornwall, England.\n\"What we're seeing...these are things that\u2019ll persist in the geologic record that a million years from now people will find,\" said Hazen. \"It's this incredibly rapid pulse caused by human activity.\"\nHazen's log, while extensive, still doesn't cover all of the mineral-like materials that humans have created. These additional materials include magnets, alloys, and building materials like bricks and concrete. Hazen estimates that there are hundreds or even thousands more of these materials that researchers have yet to officially classify.\n\"We're talking about a pervasive layer of Earth's surface which humans have changed in fundamental ways,\" said Hazen.",

        "raw_content": "What the globalization backlash means for international markets\nThe response from financial markets to the Brexit \u2013 Britain\u2019s decision to leave the European Union \u2013 follows a series of swift and at times devastating market reactions to poor policy decisions.\nThe reaction to America\u2019s first failed TARP vote in the heat of the financial crisis and the pummeling markets took when Greece threatened to opt out of the Eurozone last summer are just two other examples. They illustrate the market\u2019s ability to reverse or sway ill-conceived policy-making \u2013 a role far larger than its historical one of disciplinarian.\nRepercussions from the UK\u2019s vote to leave the EU have been swift and dramatic. The pound sterling plummeted to a 30-year low as equity markets tanked and flight to safe assets outside of the country ensued. The government has dissolved in confusion following several high profile resignations, including that of Prime Minister David Cameron. This is adding to the unprecedented uncertainty about which direction the country will go in next.\nSome of the power that financial markets have gained could be exacerbated in this unusual post-crisis world. US Federal Reserve Governor Lael Brainard has warned that cross-border financial transmission mechanisms, namely currency exchange rates, are more sensitive to even small changes in interest rates when rates are already at such low levels. The threat to already fragile emerging markets is of particular concern. China, already on thin ice, is struggling to defend its currency in the wake of the vote.\nBarry Eichengreen of the University of California-Berkeley has also highlighted the undue burden that reserve currencies bear. A lack of high-quality, safe haven and liquid assets means that reserve currencies attract more than their fair share of bond purchases and currency appreciation. Remove the pound sterling from the basket of reserve currencies and the movement becomes even more pronounced. The sharp appreciation in the yen following the Brexit vote and the drag that places on Japan\u2019s economy is evidence of this.\nThe financial crisis left markets more sensitive to external shocks, after it became clear just how interconnected we have become. Market participants have every reason to sound the alarm when a move as dramatic as the Brexit vote, which shakes the foundations of the post-World War II model of economic integration and diplomatic coordination, occurs. Extremism, populism, isolationism, whatever we choose to call it, threatens to take away in just one generation much of what we worked to establish after the carnage of two world wars.\nIn reaction, those British voters experiencing a kind of \u201cbuyer\u2019s remorse\u201d are looking for ways to reverse, or at least soften, the negative economic consequences of the Brexit vote. Constitutional experts are weighing the government\u2019s options. Everything from a series of political maneuvers to a new referendum is being explored. For the sake of democracy, I side with acclaimed novelist Kazuo Ishiguro who argues that the country needs to hold a second referendum that clearly lays out the costs of leaving as well as remaining in the EU. As it stands, the democratic process has been hijacked by the one-dimensional referendum, which came about almost accidentally; three years ago, Cameron consolidated support for his leadership by shifting disagreement over Europe onto a future referendum.\nWhy does it matter? The world is undergoing a series of political identity crises, which means upheaval in the world\u2019s largest economies could become the norm. Financial markets will react, which means market participants could end up with a larger say in the outcomes. Will that result in better policy decisions? Or will it merely punish and incense those left behind by those decisions? Violence against immigrants surged in the wake of the Brexit vote, revealing an underbelly of racism; it is hard to imagine this could be healed by markets alone. The tools of democracy, which take more time and evoke uncertainty, are still better suited for the job.\nI take some solace from the fact that financial market participants are holding our elected officials immediately accountable for policy choices; someone should. The recent rise in nationalism, encouraged by fear mongering, is particularly unproductive, especially as it will most hurt the people who respond to it. There is no guarantee, however, that financial markets will make better decisions than our elected officials have. Financial market participants can be even more short-sighted than politicians in their time frame for returns. They bring with them their own sense of hubris and confidence that they, not voters, should control policy decisions. That could seed a whole new set of challenges.\nWe can\u2019t undo or reverse globalization, but we can alter our path. Globalization and technological change have left major swathes of the population behind. Dealing with their plight must be part of any future model and will require major investments in human capital and infrastructure, something too many countries have neglected. Financial markets are no more likely to succeed at incentivizing that investment than our elected officials. Their push to determine near-term winners and losers could actually widen the gap that divides us. Democracies are about compromise, representation and equity. They operate with a conscience; markets do not.\nThis article is part of our globalization series. You can read more here .",

        "raw_content": "China's \u2018Uber for bikes\u2019 model is going global\nAfter a recent funding round, Beijing-based Ofo netted $450 million and joined the unicorn club of private companies valued at over $1 billion . Among its backers are ride-sharing giant Didi Chuxing and Jack Ma\u2019s Ant Financial (part of Alibaba).\nOfo operates in 80 cities around the world and its customers take 15 million trips every day.\nAnd it all began over a fried chicken lunch only three years ago.\nDockless bikes are different\nBack in 2014, founder of Ofo, Dai Wei, and four classmates from Peking University were debating business ideas over a KFC lunch. Among them were cycling tours for tourists and a car-rental scheme. Within a year they had settled on a different idea \u2013 a bike-sharing service powered by an app. Bike sharing would eliminate the problem of lost or stolen bikes, and provide users with transportation to and from public transport, the founders reasoned. Unlike other city bike-sharing schemes, there are no docking stations for Ofo bikes, which can be left anywhere. Users \u2013 there are 10 million in China and counting \u2013 download an app, type in a number attached to the bicycle and receive a passcode, which allows them to unlock it. It\u2019s cheap \u2013 as low as 30 cents a ride \u2013 and easy. Another feature allows users to share their own bicycles on the app, which gives them access to all the Ofo bikes. Global expansion plans Ofo is currently in 34 Chinese cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Kunming, and Hefei. It aims to launch in 20 countries by the end of 2017 and already has a scheme in Singapore. It has been piloting a scheme in Cambridge, in the UK, albeit a small one. But Ofo isn\u2019t the only bike-sharing company on the block. There are at least a dozen other bike-sharing startups in China. The company with the next-largest market share is Shanghai-based Mobike, which has funding from Chinese internet giant Tencent Holdings Ltd and private equity house Warburg Pincus.\nMobike recently launched in Manchester , in the UK, which became the 100th Mobike city in the world and the first outside of Asia.\nBike-sharing schemes are good for the environment. They help to reduce emissions and provide valuable first/last mile transportation to bridge the gaps in a commute by train or subway, where people might otherwise jump in a cab.\nMobike claims that \u201cMobikers\u201d have cycled a combined distance of over 2.5 billion kilometers in the year since its first bikes hit the streets \u2013 the equivalent of taking 170,000 cars off the road.\nIn fact, according to a white paper by the company , cycling has doubled in usage over the last year, accounting for more than 11.6% of total transportation today versus 5.5% a year ago.\nAnd China is a world leader in bike-sharing schemes, according to the Financial Times.\nBike-sharing problems\nBut bike sharing does not come without its share of problems. The absence of a dock, for instance, means that bikes can be parked carelessly . In some cities, such as Shenzhen, they have been discarded in piles, or thrown into waterways.\nThis could bring about increased regulation by city authorities, as well as extra costs for the bike companies to retrieve the bikes.\nDespite its success so far, some analysts fear that the bike-sharing business model doesn\u2019t make financial sense , and that the companies will find it difficult to turn a profit. One of the issues is that the intense competition for market share between bike-sharing companies results in lower fees for bike rides \u2013 and lower profits.\nInvestors don\u2019t seem to agree, however. Ofo looks to be increasing in value again as latest figures put the company\u2019s worth at $3 billion.\nAnd there is also value in the data provided by the GPS trackers on the bikes. It could help companies like Ant Financial target their products at users, and municipal authorities to better plan city layouts.\nOfo says that improving the user experience is key to its success, including adding GPS to the bikes to track their location and changing the tyres to make them more sturdy.\nThe setbacks certainly haven\u2019t dampened the ambition of Wei, who is a World Economic Forum Global Shaper with the Beijing hub . \u201cWe want to make the world better. Solving the problem of traffic jams, bringing a healthy and green lifestyle is our mission,\u201d he says.",

        "raw_content": "Home\u203aEducation News\u203aHow AI Can Compliment Educators, Not Replace Them\nOver the last weekend of July, some of the world\u2019s education leaders gathered at the EdTech Asia Summit in Ho Chi Minh to discuss where education is headed in the 21st century. 51Talk (or \u201cChina Online Education Group\u201d), China\u2019s leading online education platform and the first from China listed on the NYSE (NYSE: COE), was invited to attend the summit alongside education industry leaders such as Pearson, Amazon, and YouTube.\nAs one of the few online Chinese education companies invited to participate in the event, 51Talk demonstrated its role as an industry leader, and how online education in China is making an important impact on the global stage.\nJames Stewart, marketing director of 51Talk, spoke at the summit about personalized learning\u2019s role in enhancing the quality of education for millions of students across China.\nOn this topic, James stated that \u201cOne of the biggest challenges facing online education is showing the market that online learning is as effective as offline learning.\u201d\nHis view is that at this early stage of online education\u2019s development, with internet connectivity no longer an issue, the next step is to figure out\nhow to properly leverage technologies to enhance personalized learning\nRecently, 51Talk\u2019s founder and CEO Jack Huang stated that though China\u2019s education industry still lags behind in technology, 51Talk has made technology one of its core competitive advantages.\nIn the pursuit of these competitive advantages, 51Talk has made a number of investments in R&D. One of these advantages is the company\u2019s investment in big data research and expertise. This investment has enabled 51Talk to better assess student proficiency, and then match each assessed student with the proper level of coursework.\nJames explained that \u201cWith the help of big data analytics, 51Talk is able to match the right students and teachers together, and pair them with the proper coursework, which will ultimately enhance each student\u2019s learning performance and progress.\u201d\nOne of the biggest problems facing China\u2019s offline education sector is the uneven access to high quality educational resources. One of online education\u2019s earliest attempts to solve this issue on a global scale came in the form of MOOCs (massive open online courses). This attempt failed to offer a viable solution, as MOOCs mostly provide prerecorded lectures, which prevent any interactions or feedback between the students and teachers.\nThe model developed by 51Talk has proven to be a stronger remedy to China\u2019s lack of access to superior education, as its teachers are able to provide real-time, personalized attention to the needs of students. In any 51Talk lesson, teachers are able to correct pronunciation, answer questions, and offer feedback tailored to each student\u2019s needs on a real time basis. 51Talk\u2019s services have now started to reach third and even fourth tier cities in China, and the company is on track to serve tens of millions of students in the coming years.\nAre you a new teacher to 51Talk? Here are some tips from experienced teachers:\nAmy Skogen, \u201cRemember that it is a real job and you have to treat it like one. Sometimes family/friends take it for granted that just because you work online, it means that your schedule/life are completely flexible and can be changed at the drop of a hat. One of the best things you can do is figure out what is doable for you in terms of time, make it available to prospective students, and stick with it on a long-term basis. Don\u2019t open irregular hours \u2013 your students should know when to expect your classes. Chinese students also really value dependability, so being consistently available/on time for classes is huge, as well as being available a number of days/weeks in the future, for those who like your lessons and want to keep seeing you!\u201d\nSarah Griego, \u201cFind time for family and for yourself. You need to give back to yourself in order to be the best teacher you can be.\u201d\nKelly Kelly, \u201cFind a way to connect with every student. It could be a mutual love for art, music, animals, food (pizza is almost universally liked!), movies, travel. If the two of you make that connection, the student will be back for more. Smiles and laughter also go a long way!\u201d\nDeb Frabasilio-Khosla, \u201cPractice smiling as wide as you can and say three words, good, great, and go!\u201d\nJen Lumley Schick, \u201cTry to have a designated office space, even if it is just a corner of a table with all your supplies near by! You can recycle old bins to organize your props and label them by lesson.\u201d\nAngela Cerrato says to use the following tips:\n1. Read everything you are sent when you are hired.\n2. ASK your Trainer/Coach or whoever the basics that they keep asking here on the Group Board.\n3. Make a list of what you Need/want to know.\n4. Research before you ask questions on here most have been answered 1,000 times or more.\n5. Everyone is different what is in my contract may not be in your contract.\n6. Ask support questions.\nAs for the role that AI is expected to play in education, James believes that\ninstead of replacing teachers, AI will become a complement to them\n\u201cArtificial intelligence stands to become a powerful tool in the repertoire of each online teacher, and will yield learning benefits unobtainable in an offline setting.\u201d\nFollowing this, James commented on 51Talk\u2019s newly announced partnership with SenseTime, an AI company that recently completed a $410 million Series B funding round, and described its strategic importance in keeping 51Talk at the cutting edge of its industry. The company focuses on visual recognition technology, and aims to apply it to advances in education.\nAugmented by technologies and artificial intelligence, online teaching is poised to change the way that people around the world learn, and 51Talk is confident that it has positioned itself to be at the forefront of education\u2019s next stage of evolution.\nAbout 51Talk:\n51Talk, or China Online Education Group (NYSE: COE), is a leading online education platform in China, with core expertise in English education. The Company\u2019s mission is to make quality education accessible and affordable. The Company\u2019s online and mobile education platforms enable students across China to take live one-on-one interactive English lessons with overseas foreign teachers, on demand. The Company connects its students with a large pool of highly qualified foreign teachers that it assembled using a shared economy approach, and employs student and teacher feedback and data analytics to deliver a personalized learning experience to its students.\nTeaching Adult Learners: 5 Things Teachers Need ...",

        "raw_content": "Home\u203aEducation News\u203aRethinking Education: Personalization and the \u2018One Size Fits All\u2019 Approach\nRethinking Education: Personalization and the \u2018One Size Fits All\u2019 Approach\nWritten by guest author: Lorna Keane\nSir Ken Robinson famously describes our education system as \u201cmodeled on the interests of industrialization, and on the image of it.\u201d Whether or not we agree, continuous efforts to revolutionize the education process suggest the statement holds some value. With standardized testing and increasing class sizes steadily quenching the personalized nature of education, educators continue to fall under the strain of attempting to reach every single student on a personal level.\nStandardized testing began in the United States in the early 1900s, most notably during the First World War to determine which soldiers were \u201cofficer material\u201d, soon to evolve into determining which students were \u201ccollege worthy\u201d. Advocates for differentiation and personalized learning have denounced the standardized approach to education, embracing research-based findings that students engage with different content in different ways, with one-to-one proving to be the most effective form of instruction.\n\u201cIt is true that education processes have been modeled on the \u2018production line\u2019 and that a \u2018one size fits all\u2019 approach has been pursued for the sake of economical and resource constraint reasons\u201d, says Jim Butler, founder of adaptive learning platform, Fishtree. With personalized learning environments setting up the ideal in formal instruction, innovative new trends are rising fast across the education sector. Online and blended learning models are being adopted at increasing speed with 25 states operating state virtual schools, and 29 states and Washington DC operating statewide, full-time online schools. Such movements are coming in response to the rising demand for personalized learning environments that dispel the culture of standardization.\nEvery year, over 1.2 million students drop out of high school in the United States alone. That\u2019s one student every 26 seconds, or 7,000 a day. A further 25% of high school freshmen fail to graduate from high school on time. With such figures continuing to focus efforts on the need for change, technology is taking center stage in the search for a personalized solution for every student.\nAdaptive technology is attempting to form a solution that overrides the \u2018one size fits all\u2019 approach, zoning in on the individual learning criteria of every student. \u201cTechnology is not just about the distribution of the message (LMS, ebook etc.) but about allowing the message to be formed and contextualized so everyone can receive it in accordance to their own individual learning preferences\u201d, says Jim.\nReferencing Benjamin Bloom\u2019s noted research on \u2018The 2 Sigma Problem\u2019, Jim explains how Fishtree found its roots: \u201cThe improvements that come from students participating in a highly individualized program of study are far superior to other methods of group instruction, including many of the more favored methods of instruction in use today.\u201d Fishtree forms a solution to the challenge of scaling one-to-one instruction, with the ultimate goal of \u201callowing software to finally move the cognitive dial by assessing the needs of individuals from an instructional perspective and allowing technology to assist teachers with that, whilst also allowing them to manage the classroom/teaching processes \u2013 in one simple wrapper\u201d, he says.\nWith the help of self-paced, adaptive systems like Fishtree, educators are being offered the tools to ensure the \u2018one size fits all\u2019 approach is abandoned, and a new form of learning takes its place. As hybrid-teaching models reach for recognition as mainstream methods, ideas are beginning to spin around the student-centered classrooms of the future, with adaptive technology at the forefront. Jim shares his interpretation of education of the future, \u201cwith both teachers and students firmly in the center and technology playing a very important, yet almost subliminal, part in the distribution, differentiation, pedagogical process, management and scaling.\u201d\nTechnology is re-establishing that essential link between student and teacher, maintaining the personalized aspect of education in an effort to reach out to every single student, and create possibilities for every individual. It\u2019s time we moved away from the age-old, \u2018industrialized\u2019 approach to education, and towards a world in which all students receive the personalized experience they deserve. Fishtree is breaking down traditional barriers in an effort to bring personalization to the masses, by creating the most individualized, self-paced learning experience imaginable, that caters to a learner\u2019s needs, rather than overlooking them.\nStay Updated From Washington: Elementary and Secondary ...",

        "title": "Carlos Torre Repetto",
        "raw_content": "Carlos Torre Repetto\nCarlos Torre Repetto was born in Yucatan, Mexico, in 1904. He died, impoverished, in an old-age home in 1978, an obscure chess master.\nAlthough he was born in 1904, Torre quit chess in 1926 - at the age of 22 - after playing only two years professionally! Yet he left behind a legacy of brilliance and the promise of being a serious contender for the world championship. Playing against three world champions - Alekhine, Capablanca and Lasker - Torre had a plus score (+1 =2).\nPlaying in a tournament in Chicago in 1925, Torre needed only one win to finish first in a field that included Frank Marshall and Geza Maroczy and Edward Lasker. He lost this game to Edward Lasker. After this tournament, he suffered a nervous breakdown which, while in NYC, manifested itself when he attempted to remove his clothes on a Fifth Avenue bus. He never played serious chess again. After a brief hospitalization, he returned to his native Mexico.\nThere have been rumors that his breakdown occurred as a result of being jilted by his fianc\u00e9e. Whether this is true or not is unclear, but it's not generally accepted. Dr Carlos Fruvas G\u00e1rnica, who treated Torre and seemed to be very close to him, reports that Torre, in fact, became a victim of his own success: \"In 1926 there was no Mexican politician, generalote, or rich retailer, or monopolistic millionaire that did not want that Torre went to its social gatherings.\"\nIt's his contention that Torre was used by political, military and financial leaders to augment their social standings. They had no interest and little involvement in chess, yet they invited (strongly) Torre to appear at their constant stream of social gatherings. They wined him and dined him, faking interest in a subject they knew nothing about. He felt like a rope in some tug-of-war. So incessant were the invitations that he often had to refuse one to attend another. The political climate in Mexico of that time made refusing a dangerous thing. In short, the doctor believes Torre was a victim of stress and found the only way to escape this stress was to escape the reality of his existence, that is, to not be a famous chess player.\n\"...they want to think that Torre lost the reason by some dark cause, I prefer to think that Carlos Torre retired voluntarily from chess not to have to report to that society of crazy people.\"\nIn his later life it was discovered in interviews that Torre retained his marvelous memory and could recall his games in detail. Quite coherently, he said, \"I abandoned chess competition, but never my love for this beautiful game.\"\n1. The game between Torre and Adams (New Orleans, 1920) is purported to be wrongly attributed to Torre.\nsee: #2571. Adams v Torre @ http://www.chesscafe.com/winter/winter.htm\n2. This Adams is also erroneously given the first name of \"Edwin\". His name was \"Edward\".\n3. Torre did, in fact, play Edward Adams in Chicago, 1925 and won with an amazing double-rook sacrifice.\n4. Oddly, Torre, unlike the rest of the world, did not consider his victory over Emanuel Lasker in his famous \"windmill\" game, an example of great chess: \"To tell the truth, I do not consider it a good game, because both of us committed various errors.\"\n5. Possibly his greatest game was against Newell Banks during the Western Open, 1924, in Detroit where he trades his Queen for a Knight and an attack on move 24.\n6. The name \"Torre\" means \"Tower\". Tartakover once observed that the reason Torre was so successful was that he played with three towers!\n7. Gabriel Velasco is the author of a book on Torre:\nThe Life and Games Of Carlos Torre,\npublished by Russell Enterprises, 1993. ISBN 1-888690-07-0\n1. Many of his games can be found here\n2.

        "raw_content": "Moralityball at DCGames Fest\nBy emcneill on Sep 24, 2012\nMoralityball, my experimental sport / social experiment, finally debuted at the 2012 DCGames Festival on September 1st. I wrote previously about playtesting the game, which gave a pretty good idea of how the game is played. I didn\u2019t settle on the \u201cfinal\u201d rules until the night before the festival, but I\u2019m pleased to report that the game resulted in some very fun/allegorical gameplay!\nThe biggest challenge in finalizing the rules was choosing the game rewards. I needed to make players want to maximize their score without regard for how well the other players were doing, which turns out to be very tricky. I briefly considered giving out actual money, but I ended up settling for a system in which I hid the nature of the rewards: I gave out tickets to the winners and said that each ticket was redeemable for a Fabulous Prize! at the end of the game. (The prizes turned out to be candy.) I set up the rewards so that a team would get 2 tickets for finishing with 5 tennis balls and 1 ticket for every 3 balls after that.\nI was a bit worried that we wouldn\u2019t have enough players. Turnout was pretty slim at the festival, and the game was designed for 10-20 people. Luckily, when we gathered everybody up, we ended up with a group of 22 eager players. The first two games went swimmingly, with most players engaging in just the sort of ruthless backstabbing that I had hoped for. A few interesting strategies came up: you\u2019ll notice in the first game that one player tries to form an ad hoc group \u201calliance\u201d right away. In the second game, one team decided to sit out (under the assumption that the game was just a test of \u201chow much of an asshole will you be to win\u201d). This team later became the \u201cpolice\u201d, attacking other players that they observed stealing. Another team explained their strategy to me afterwards: make an alliance with as many teams as possible, then immediately break them for profit. All good stuff.\nWatch Game 1\nFor the third game, I announced to everyone that there were, in fact, enough balls for every team to win 2 tickets (which would be the most efficient outcome for the group). I also extended the round from 3 minutes to 5 minutes, to give them time to try to sort it out. Still, the players never quite organized themselves.\nFor the last game, I dumped an extra few balls into the starting pile, explaining that now there were more than enough tennis balls for everyone to win. I also shortened the game to 2 minutes. This time, the players tried to arrange a cooperative strategy: they would all walk, pick up their tennis balls, and stop when they had enough. Here was the real test of the game.\nTheir cooperative strategy lasted for about 20 seconds, at which point a player stealthily stole another\u2019s flag. After that, all bets were off. Despite having the chance to achieve a peaceful, mutually agreeable outcome, the selfishness of individuals caused all cooperation to collapse. Needless to say, I was immensely pleased.\nAlthough the game went about as well as it could have, it still revealed a few flaws that I\u2019d like to fix. For one, having the players rip off other players\u2019 flags only works if there\u2019s a designated offense and defense; if both players are going after each other at once, it ends up turning into a cross between a dance and a brawl. Belt flags work best when there\u2019s some sort of \u201csafe zone\u201d to return to. Second, the rewards ended up being a letdown for everybody involved. If I were to do this again, I think I\u2019d just hand out dollar bills instead of tickets. It accentuates the extrinsic nature of the rewards, but it also makes the social experiment part of the game much more valid. As a fun, interesting, one-off festival game, I think it would work.\nEven with the current version, though, the players seemed to have fun, and it spurred a lot of discussion. I\u2019m plenty happy with that.\nPlaytesting Moralityball\nLaunching A New Life\nDarknet: Turning Weaknesses Into Strengths\n\"What would you make if someone gave you a million dollars?\" \"Probably something terrible.\" - Alexander B...\nAnnouncing: Darknet\nToday, I'm proud to finally announce my next game: Darknet.

        "raw_content": "SPACE, TIME, MASS, ENERGY, AND CONSCIOUSNESS\nAS DISTINCTIONS (Continued)\nSCIENTIFIC PARADIGMS AND PARADIGM SHIFTS\nThe word paradigm, derived from a Latin word meaning to show beside, in the sense of an example or model, was first used to mean a scientific model or world view, by American physicist and philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn in his now-famous book \u201cThe Structure of Scientific Revolutions\u201d published in 1962. He also introduced the term \u2018paradigm shift\u2019 to mean a fundamental shift in the basic concepts upon which science, or at least some major part of science, was based. Examples of major paradigm shifts include the shift from an Earth-centered cosmological model to a planetary solar system model, the shift to relativity, and the shift to quantum mechanics. Paradigm shifts do not negate everything known before, but they do profoundly change the way we understand the nature of reality.\nA paradigm shift is the result of new evidence that contradicts the existing paradigm, and that evidence is most often discovered by scientists working in areas at the fringe, or outside of the existing paradigm. In every major paradigm shift, the scientists discovering them have been ridiculed by scientists in mainstream academia, who consider them to be misguided.\nRelativity and quantum physics were considered to be separate, and even competing and conflicting paradigm shifts, but together, they have revealed an expanding quantized reality where the location, relative motion and consciousness of the observer interact dynamically with and influence the nature of physical reality. Thus they paved the way for the paradigm shift being discussed here. We now realize, and can demonstrate mathematically, that no paradigm can be a theory of everything if does not contain consciousness, and as we\u2019ve discussed in earlier posts, reality consists of mass, energy and a third form, in a nine-dimensional finite space, time consciousness domain, expanding out of a structured transfinite domain into infinity. The connections between consciousness and space-time domains are well-defined in the Calculus of Distinctions.\nThe calculus of distinctions (CoD) is a system of mathematical logic uniquely and ideally suited to describing reality in terms of integral multi-dimensional quanta of mass, energy, space, time and consciousness. I will not post the mathematical derivation of the CoD here, because it is too lengthy and technical, and I have published it elsewhere. (Notably in \u201cInfinite Continuity\u201d 1990, in \u201cTranscendental Physics, 1997 and 2000, in \u201cThe Calculus of Dimensional Distinctions in Elements of mathematical Theory of Intellect\u201d, 2003, published in Moscow with Vladimir Brandin, in \u201cReality Begins with Consciousness\u201d, 2013 with Vernon Neppe. See www.BrainVoyage.com), and journal articles. The calculus of distinctions has advantages over the calculus of Newton and Leibniz, not the least of which is the fact that the CoD is designed to deal with quantum distinctions, and the calculus of Leibniz and Newton was not.\nI will describe briefly here how the CoD was derived and applied to the elementary particles that make up physical reality. As I stated in an earlier post, the good news is: the calculus of distinctions is, in principle, easier to understand than the calculus used today. It is more basic than the calculus of Newton and Leibniz; it works the way your mind works. And learning the basics of the calculus of distinctions is like starting at the beginning of the story, not in the middle. The calculus of distinctions is logically prior to all mathematical expressions. Much like algebra and algebraic symbols, the calculus of distinctions is the logic of calculation, and distinctions are the objects of that calculation.\nThe awareness of reality begins with the first distinction drawn by a conscious entity: the distinction of self from other. And the distinction of self from other begins with the awareness of a feeling of being inside, as opposed to outside, experienced as I am \u2018in here\u2019, everything else is \u2018out there\u2019. This distinction is a necessary precursor to drawing other distinctions within self, and in other. It is the basis of all awareness of separation and combination, similarity and difference, equivalence and counting, and thus all mathematics. The distinctions of past, present and future lead to awareness of time, cause and effect, and finally, all science and knowledge. In space and time, we have distinctions of extent in 3 or more dimensions, and we have distinctions of content, as of mass and energy, and distinctions of intent or meaning, as in consciousness.\nTRUE QUANTUM UNITS\nDistinctions beyond the distinction of self from other are defined in units of mass/energy/consciousness equivalence. In a quantized reality, it is logical, and very useful to define the unitary quantum distinction in terms of the smallest possible particle of the substance of reality. That particle is the electron.\nUsing Einstein\u2019s mass-energy equivalence expressed by E = mc2, (true in SI units, i.e., where energy is measured in joules, mass in kilograms, and the speed of light in meters per second) we will \u2018normalize\u2019 our quantum unit by defining the measures of the electron as the basic units of measurement of quantum reality. This means that the quantity of mass and energy, and the volume of the electron are all set equal to one. These units are similar to Planck\u2019s quantum units, but different from Planck units in a very important way: Planck\u2019s units are derived by setting the five physical constants (the gravitational constant, the Coulomb constant, the Boltzmann constant, Planck\u2019s constant, and the speed of light) equal to one. We are setting the basic mass, energy, space, and time measures of the electron equal to one.\nPlanck\u2019s units are designed to simplify calculations involving the known \u2018universal\u2019 constants, and to remove the arbitrariness of macro-scale measurement units like feet, pounds, meters and grams. By redefining quantum units the way we have, we have defined measurement to be based on the four measurable features of physical reality: mass, energy, space and time, and the consciousness act of the drawing of distinctions, which is also an integral part of measurement. This removes the arbitrary aspect of measurement, as Planck units do, but we have also found a way to, at least tentatively include the action of consciousness. Defining the TRUE quantum unit in this way and using it as the unitary distinction in the CoD, we avoid the intractable difficulties of the current mathematics with more than two dimensions, by starting with 3D distinctions. We shall see that this greatly simplifies the mathematics needed to describe physical reality.\nWe know that stable elementary particles are spinning rapidly, at angular velocities even approaching the speed of light, and they are stable, because they don\u2019t fly apart like an asymmetric lump of clay on a potter's wheel. This means that they must have symmetrical shapes. Planck\u2019s discovery that reality is quantized provides an elegant way to determine the size and shape of the electron, and subsequently of the quantum unit, because, in a quantized reality, only certain symmetrical shapes are possible. I\u2019ll go into this in more detail in technical papers, but for the purposes of this discussion, it is sufficient to say that symmetrical particles, spinning in three dimensions, behave as if they were spherical. This is because by spinning so fast they occupy the volume of a sphere.\nContrary to the opinions of most physicists, classical physics principles do apply at the quantum level. Classical centripetal forces cause the extremities of spinning particles to be pulled toward the center, or shrink in size, increasing their spinning velocity, like a spinning skater. But, just as the quantum is the limit, or bottom, of physical mass, it is also the bottom of physical size, because the speed of light is the upper limit on relative velocity, which determines the limit on how small the particle can be. Thus, in the normalized electron unit we have the definition of the most basic unit of mass, energy and volume. Add to this the presence of the third form, carrying the logical structure of consciousness, and we have the Triadic Rotational Unit of equivalence, or TRUE unit as the basic unit of all three types of measurement: extent, content and intent.\nI note in passing that the normalizing of the units of measurement to the TRUE unit, involves combining quantum and relativistic principles. Thus, by making the TRUE unit the basic distinction of the calculus of distinctions, we assure that the mathematics growing out of this will integrate relativity and quantum physics. In addition, the mathematics and geometry describing physical reality are greatly simplified because all of the particles that make up the physical universe, and any combination of them, are measurable in whole-number multiples of a basic equivalence unit, the TRUE unit. This normalizes all equations describing the combinations of quarks, electrons, protons and neutrons, atoms and molecules that make up the physical universe into simple Diophantine, or integer equations.\nIn future posts I will show how this approach leads to the discovery of the mathematical/geometrical/logical nature of the third form, which we\u2019ve called gimmel in these posts, and how several long-standing puzzles of physics are solved using TRUE units of mass, energy and gimmel.\nLabels: Consciousness, Distinctions, energy, Gimmel, Mass, Quantization, Quantum Physics, RealityParadigm Shift, Relativity, Space, the Calculus of Distinctions, Thomas Kuhn, Time\nDr. Neppe and I have received comments on our work from people in all walks of life from all over the world. Many of the comments are very interesting. We plan to publish some of them in a book tentatively entitled 'The Answer'. A comment I received recently from a member of a theoretical physics group is very interesting because it raises a legitimate and important point that I think is worth sharing here. (The person sending the comment is not named here because I would not do that without his permission.)\nIf it's \"transcendental\",\nThen it's \"not measurable\",\nTherefore it's NOT PHYSICS !\nThank you for your comment. It may surprise you to learn that I actually agree with you to the extent that simply put, physics as one of the original \u2018natural\u2019 sciences, is defined as the study of matter and energy interacting in space and time. That physics is a very simple science that allows us to predict the future positions of bodies in motion to some degree of accuracy, but even falters when confronted with the three-body problem, and can\u2019t touch most of the real problems facing humanity.\nReal science, the science of the future, has to be more than that. It can\u2019t be confined to the finite intellectual box of materialism. Science is the effort to understand all of reality. That includes at the very least, everything we experience as sentient beings. And not everything that is real can be directly measured in units of mass, energy, space and time. Think of 'dark matter' for example. Science confined to that which is directly measurable is a sterile and limited science.\nWith the paradigm shifts of relativity and quantum mechanics, physics was expanded, pushed to the very edge of the original definition. We learned from the work of Einstein, Planck, Schr\u04e7dinger, Bohr, and Heisenberg that the observer is actually an integral part of the experiment. As Nobel Prize winning theoretical physicist John Wheeler said; \u201cThere is a strange sense in which this is a participatory universe\u201d.\nThe real frontiers of science lie in investigating the interactions of consciousness with physical reality at all scales of measurement from the quantum to the entire expanding universe. So perhaps, I should have called the expansion from simple physics to the study of reality \u2018transcendental science\u2019. The problem with this is it would accept and promote the artificial compartmentalization of science. So I chose \u2018Transcendental Physics\u2019 to get your attention.\nLabels: Bohr, Close, Einstein, Heisenberg, John Wheeler, Nobel Prize, Quantum Physics Neppe, Relativity, Schr\u04e7dinger, the Answer, Transcendental Physics, Transcendental Science\nACTUALLY REQUIRE SIMPLER MATHEMATICS\nMost people, mathematicians and physicists included, think that the math of relativity and quantum physics is necessarily more complicated than the math of classical physics. But, as pointed out in the last post, physicists are using an inappropriate calculus, a calculus that doesn\u2019t apply at the quantum scale. This misapplication of the calculus of Newton and Leibniz has caused many physicists to believe that the rules, i.e., the laws of physics, are different at the quantum scale than they are at the everyday macro-scale. If this were the case, then there would be a point on the scale of measurement where the macro-laws switch over to the quantum scale laws. But this is not the case.\nThe brilliant Hungarian-born physicist and mathematician John von Neumann, considered by many to be second only to Einstein as a scientific genius, proved that there is no such \u2018switch-over\u2019 point, and that all physical systems are quantum systems. This means that the apparent incompatibility of quantum mechanics and relativity is caused by the misapplication of mathematics rather than a real physical difference.\nOn the universal scale of size, we exist in the middle, that is to say, the scale of ordinary objects we observe and measure in our laboratories are about half way between the size of atoms and the size of galaxies. We know that the sub-atomic particles that make up the physical universe are quantized, extremely small and that they are spinning at extreme angular velocities. By \u2018quantized\u2019 we mean that every particle of physical reality is a whole-number (integer) multiple of a very small unit.\nNote: From this point on, you are entering the realm of new science. What follows is a \u2018thought experiment\u2019, published here for the first time.\nSuppose we magnify the quantum world to the point that an elementary particle appears to be about the size of a baseball. Further suppose that your consciousness merges with the quantum world. What would that experience be like? To find out, let\u2019s take Planck, Einstein and von Neumann, the three leading scientific geniuses of the 20th century, at their word. Planck said that the substance of reality is quantized, and that matter and energy occur only in integer multiples of a basic quantum unit. Einstein said that mass and energy are simply two forms of the same thing, and von Neumann said all reality, from the single quantum unit to the largest galaxy in the universe, are quantum systems. Furthermore, Planck said that there is no matter as such, what appears to be solid matter is energy, and the source of that energy must be an infinite intelligent mind; Einstein said that just as mass and energy have a lower limit in the extent to which they can be divided: the quantum, there is an upper limit on movement or velocity, relative to a stationary observer: the speed of light; and von Neumann said that the transfer of quanta of mass/energy ends in the consciousness of the observer as information. These conclusions, based on the discoveries and the empirical validations of relativity and quantum physics, make our experience of the quantum world very different from our experience of the macro-world of everyday life in a physical body.\nDoes this contradict von Neumann's conclusion that the difference, sometimes called the 'Heisenberg cut' between the macro world and the quantum world, does not exist? No, because this difference occurs at the end of the descent from the macro to the bottom, the smallest quantum, and the rules we find at the end of divisibility of substance are the logical rules of the calculus of distinctions, that also apply at the macro level, where the rules of the Newton Leibniz calculus becomes a less accurate sub-set of the rules of the calculus of distinctions.\nIn the quantum world, the substance of reality consists of three forms, measurable as quanta of mass, energy and a third form. And reality is encompassed in nine dimensions of extent: Three of space, measurable in multiples of integers, three of time, measurable in imaginary numbers, and three of consciousness, measurable in complex numbers. Thus we see that the quantum world reflects the structure of quantification discovered by mathematicians, and obeys the logic of the theorems of the discipline known as number theory. The lower limit of the quantum and the upper limit of relative velocity combine to define a basic mass/energy/space/time equivalence unit we call the triadic rotational equivalence unit, or the TRUE quantum unit for short.\nThis may sound like the product of a fanciful imagination, but it is not. The TRUE quantum unit is derived mathematically from the empirical data of particle colliders, and known principles of mathematical physics. The details of this derivation have been published in a number of technical papers and the book \u201cReality Begins with Consciousness\u201d by Neppe and Close.\nThe TRUE quantum unit normalizes all measurements to integers, so that equations describing the combination of elementary particles are integer equations, known to mathematicians as Diophantine equations. This simply means that the relevant solutions to these equations are integer multiples of the TRUE quantum unit. This, along with two well-known mathematical theorems, simplifies Theorem. They determine how elementary particles combine to form stable structures.\nIn the next post, we will look at how the TRUE quantum unit relates to quarks, electrons, protons and neutrons, and why the calculus of distinctions is the perfect mathematical/logical system to describe multi-dimensional quantized reality in the simplest possible way.\nLabels: Einstein, Fermat's Last Theorem, Heisenberg cut, Macro scale, Mathematical simplicity, Planck, Pythagorean Theorem, Qunatum scale, the Third Form of Reality, TRUE quantum unit, von Neumann\nWHOLE NUMBER SEQUENCES AND QUANTUM REALITY 1,2,3,\u2026 Infinity!!!\nUsing a common analogy, one might say that science and technology as we know them today constitute just the tip of the iceberg. Approximately 90% of an iceberg floating in the ocean is beneath the surface. Today\u2019s science has been looking only at the tip of reality; most of it is hidden. But, like most analogies, this analogy is not perfect. Most of today\u2019s science is based on and limited to materialistic concepts. If the sum total of today\u2019s scientific knowledge is the tip of an iceberg, physical reality is the rest of the iceberg, plus all the oceans of the world. As we shall see, simple math shows us that reality is much more than that which has weight and takes up space.\nIn fact, it has been proved mathematically that reality is infinite.\nThe mathematics used by scientists today has, as its most important system of logic, \u2018the calculus\u2019 of infinitesimals which was developed by Leibniz and Newton, about 350 years ago. Almost all of our detailed understanding of physical reality and the resulting technology we have today, employs \u2018the calculus\u2019, but the calculus of Newton and Leibniz simply does not work at the quantum level. Why? Because it depends on the assumption that reality can be divided into ever smaller bits. This is not actually the case. We have known for more than 70 years that we exist in a quantized world. There is a smallest bit, beyond which no division is possible. The calculus works as well as it does only because that smallest bit is so much smaller than anything we can directly measure, that for the purposes of building things from skyscrapers to microscopic electronic circuits, the error is not significant. But for describing quantum phenomena, the calculus is totally inappropriate and leads to much of the confusion that causes scientists to think that quantum experiments produce weird results.\nMax Planck, who discovered the fact that we live in a quantized universe, said: \u201cScience advances from funeral to funeral!\u201d meaning that scientists, like most people, get locked into a paradigm, - a way of thinking, and cannot see beyond it. Right now, they can\u2019t seem to see beyond the calculus and binary logic. But in order to begin to investigate the rest of the iceberg, we have to go beyond the calculus and binary logic.\nBinary logic is the basis of a mathematical system called Boolean algebra and today\u2019 computers are simple binary computing machines. Again, this has been sufficient for today\u2019s technology for the most part, but, like the calculus, it is inadequate to deal with quantum phenomena and the inclusion of consciousness, which quantum physics demands. What does work, is the Calculus of Distinctions and triadic logic. They are basic to the Close-Neppe paradigm. But, you may think, if I don\u2019t understand the calculus of Newton, how can I expect to understand a new calculus and logic? Fortunately they are more basic than \u2018the calculus\u2019 and binary logic, and easier to understand!\nOK. With that intro, we are ready to start. Contemplate the symmetrical sequence of equations above and below. They are known as Diophantine equations (after the Greek mathematician Diophantus). Notice that they progress from I to 3 dimension-wise (indicated by power: a 2D area is an integer squared, a 3D volume is an integer cubed. All symmetric particles are volumetric.\n1=1 =1\n1+2=3 =3\n32+42=52 =25\n33+43+53=63 =216\nLabels: asymmetry, Binary, Integers, Logic, Mathematics, Patterns, Sequences, The calculuc, the Calculus of Distinctions, Triadic Dimensional Distinction Vortical Paradigm\nHYPOTHESIS: CONSCIOUSNESS HAS EXISTED IN SOME FORM FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE\nCONSCIOUSNESS HAS EXISTED IN SOME FORM FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE\nGiven (things that are known to be true):\n1. The substance of physical reality when measured, is found only in multiples of quanta of mass and or energy. That means that the content of all elementary particles occur in whole number multiples of quantum units.\n2. Mass and energy are exchangeable, i.e., under certain circumstances, mass is converted to energy, and under other circumstances, energy is converted to mass this equivalence is expressed mathematically by the equation E = mc2.\n3. The mass of the electron is the smallest mass of any of the major elementary particle that make up the universe. Taking that mass as the basic quantum unit, the masses of all subatomic particles are whole number multiples of that mass.\n4. The universe is expanding at a tremendous rate in all directions (i.e. in all dimensions). This is because the universe is energy abundant, meaning that the energy of expansion exceeds any force acting to draw the substance of the universe back together.\n5. Because the universe is energy abundant, elementary particles are spinning with angular velocities approaching the speed of light defined as the square root of the ratio of energy to mass. (We know this by simply solving E = mc2 for c.)\n6. Because they are spinning so rapidly, all elementary particles behave as if they were spherical. This is borne out in numerous quantum experiments.\n7. If the combination of two or more elementary particles is asymmetric, then they will fly apart. Think of a lop-sided lump of clay spinning on a potter\u2019s wheel. Long before a lop-sided object reaches even a small fraction of the speed of light, it will fly apart.\n8. The basic quantum unit, the Triadic Rotational Unit of Equivalence (TRUE) is defined as the mass energy volumetric equivalence unit.\n9. All distinctions of unitary content and unitary extent, are whole number multiples of the TRUE unit. So the combination of two particles of different sizes, when the shape factor (that is 4/3\u03c0 for spheres) is factored out, becomes A3 + B3, where A and B are the radii of the two spheres.\n10. Fermat\u2019s Last Theorem tells us that A3 + B3 \u2260 C3 if A, B, and C are integers. This means that two whole-number symmetric spinning particles cannot combine to form a third whole-number symmetric object.\n11. However, three whole-number symmetric spinning particles can combine to form a fourth whole-number symmetric object.\nE.g., 4/3\u03c0 33 + 4/3\u03c0 43 + 4/3\u03c0 53 = 4/3\u03c0 63\u2192 33 + 43 + 53 = 63. You can check the math yourself: 27 + 64 + 125 = 216\nThis explains why protons and neutrons are composed of three quarks, not two. This example is just one Diophantine solution of the Conveyance Equation. My derivation of the conveyance equation and application to quarks, electrons, protons and neutrons has been peer reviewed and published in several articles, and papers.\nSee the post \u2018PUTTING CONSCIOUSNESS INTO THE EQUATIONS PART 20 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS\u2019 for references.\nWhen elementary particles, multiples of TRUE units, combine to form more complex particles, protons and neutrons are formed, and they combine to form the stable elemental structures of the physical universe. However, without a third form of the substance of reality, not directly measurable as mass or energy, no physical reality could exist. Without symmetrically spinning stability, no stable physical universe could exist because of the second law of thermodynamics, which dictates that any finite physical system always decays toward maximum entropy, i.e. total disorder, lacking structure of any kind.\nThe conveyance equation contains the mathematical and geometrical logic that determines the structure of the universe. But without the third form, which we have called gimmel, there would be no stable compound particles. This means that gimmel, the third form had to exist from the beginning. Otherwise, no particle could ever form out of a big bang explosive origin event.\nBut what is gimmel? It is the final piece of the puzzle of consciousness, the information that gives meaning, purpose and logic to the physical structures of the universe, even the brain of a human being. So, if gimmel is not matter nor energy, the only candidate available to be equivalent to the essence reflected in gimmel is consciousness. Thus a primary form of consciousness had to exist before the first atom was formed. Therefore,\nCONSCIOUSNESS HAS EXISTED IN SOME FORM FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE, QED.\nIf our universe were composed of random debris from an explosion originating from a mathematical singularity, because of the continuous operation of the second law of thermodynamics in an expanding debris field, simple particles accidentally formed by random mass/energy encounter, would decay before a new random encounter could occur and form a more complex combination. The number of random encounters would decrease as the debris field expands because there would be increasingly less debris in any given volume of space. Thanks to gimmel, our physical universe has escaped this fate of dissolution. While it may change and evolve, its form, and even the way it evolves, it will always reflect the intrinsic logical order and patterns of the substrate of reality within which it is embedded. Logical structure is the natural state of reality, not chaos.\nLabels: Atoms, Big-Bang Origin Event, Consciousness, Elementary Particles, Gimmel, Second Law of Thermodynamics, Symmetry, TRUE Units",

        "title": "Transcendental Physics: EXPLORE THE MIND",
        "raw_content": "COME EXPLORE THE PHENOMENA OF MIND\nWhat do I mean by \u201cthe phenomena of mind\u201d? I\u2019m talking about mind as I experience it, of course, i.e., what I think of as my mind, because that is the mind I know. But, why would I be egoistic and self-centered enough to think that you might want to explore the phenomena of my mind? What is different about my mind? Is it really worth spending your precious time and energy to try to learn about things that I have thought about or may be thinking? --Maybe.\nIn 1958, I had the rare privilege of visiting for a brief while with a man who, my friend, who introduced me to him, said was over 100 years old at the time. He was known as Dr. Mahija. I was an undergraduate college student, and because I was impressed with Dr. Mahija\u2019s wisdom and knowledge, I expressed a desire to return and learn from him. His response was: \u201cYou can do as you wish, but I\u2019ve found that most people know far too much to learn anything from me!\u201d\nMore than 60 years later, being a senior citizen myself now, I appreciate the truth Dr. Mahija spoke that day far better than I did then: Most people are not interested in what you or I think. Most people are pretty much closed-minded and self-absorbed. That is only natural, however, because, after all, for most of us, it is our own life and immediate family and friends that are important to us and our happiness and success, or failure and frustration as human beings.\nThere is no denying that your own consciousness is all that you normally experience directly. Everything else, you must learn about very indirectly through reading, hearing, and a process of observation and inference. Images of the rest of Reality, the reality that exists outside of your own mind, is automatically filtered through the lenses of your own belief system, a unique system that has been carefully crafted by acceptance of authority, and to some extent, by your individual efforts to think about the world and your place in it.\nThat which does not appear to be understandable within your belief system, is generally ignored or rejected by your brain in such a definite way that you will give it no credence, and you may never even remember that you encountered it at all. We\u2019ve read, for example, of aboriginal tribes living on remote islands, who literally could not see massive sea-going vessels that anchored near their islands, because their brains had no images in them with which to compare these huge objects, and so their minds simply rejected the alien images as meaningless.\nAs human beings, our perceptions are very limited. We are only capable of seeing a very thin band of the spectrum of electromagnetic energy, and of hearing only a very limited range of vibratory sound. If, suddenly, we were able to see and hear the vibrational frequencies generated by things that exist in dimensional domains beyond those to which our physical senses have access, then, like the aborigines, our brains would ignore and/or reject the images generated by those unfamiliar energies, and remain ignorant of the existence of the things that generated them. The human brain, and perhaps those of other sentient creatures, for purposes of creature comfort, protection and survival, are designed to fill in, and even pave over, i.e., replace, unknown images created by what we perceive, with images with which we are already familiar.\nAmong the 370-plus posts in my Transcendental Physics blog there are discussions, papers, proofs, poems, and ideas that I think may appeal to many. There are posts that will strike a familiar chord with you, and there may be things that will have no meaning for you, but I believe that there may be some things there that are important for you to know about, some things that are real, but that you might never encounter elsewhere. But just my belief that this is the case is probably not enough to motivate you to explore very many of the posts to be found there. Why should my posts be any more important or meaningful than the millions of other well-developed ideas and concepts that are out there to be found on the internet today? I\u2019ll try to answer that question in the following way:\nAlmost ten years ago, when I was 72, I learned that I had a gift. It was a gift that, apparently, I had had all my life, but a gift I didn\u2019t really know about. By a gift, I mean something one is ostensibly born with, that is so rare and highly developed, that it is far beyond that which the average person can experience. It seems that I had an extraordinarily high IQ. Not just a MENSA-level mental acuity, but a one-in-a-billion, extremely rare intellectual gift.\nIn my opinion, it was a blessing that I never knew that I was exceptionally gifted until late in life, because I\u2019ve seen what happens when one person or a group of people come to believe that they are superior to everyone else. I lived through World War II, all the wars we\u2019ve been involved in since, and more recently through the rise of political correctness. Belief in the absolute superiority of a person or group of people over everyone else, is very dangerous, and absolutely crippling for individuals, society and the progress of civilization in general.\nOur country was founded on the idea that absolute power corrupts absolutely. The idea that there are kings, persons of royal blood, or divine descent, who by virtue of their inherent superiority, are entitled to tell the rest of us what to think, say and do, was rejected by our forefathers, who left other parts of the world, primarily Europe, to escape such tyranny.\nThe statement that \"All men are created equal\" was a basic part of the philosophy of those setting up the government of the United States of America. Historians have called it \u201cthe most important single phrase\" of the American Revolution. Thomas Jefferson used the phrase in the U.S. Declaration of Independence, the declaration of independence from the British Empire. He committed it to paper in 1776 at the beginning of the American Revolution. After that, it was quoted in writings and speeches by many of the most important people in the early political and social life of our nation. The final form of the phrase was penned by Benjamin Franklin. His wording of the idea appears in the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence as follows:\nBut, what do these words actually mean? What did they mean to Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin? What did they mean to the King of England? What are they interpreted to mean today?\nWhen these words were written, only 242 years ago, New England was dominated by a group of wealthy men, i.e., men who owned property. This group of men, to which Jefferson and Franklin belonged, were declaring their independence from the oppressive rule of the King of Britain and Ireland, King George III. Most of these men, including Jefferson and Franklin, in addition to owning real estate, also owned slaves.\nThe safety and well-being of women, children and the elderly, in an often-hostile environment, was the responsibility of these men, a responsibility which they took very seriously. While family members were not considered \u201cproperty\u201d in the same sense that houses, land, livestock, and slaves were, they were not considered equal to the men either. In the early days of our country, women, children, slaves and men without property were not entitled to vote. That right was reserved for property-holders, i.e. men, who, had a significant stake in the future of the country because they owned part of it.\nBefore you condemn these slave-owning men who were the founders of our country, bear in mind that this was a huge and important step away from the conditions prevalent in the rest of the world, where virtually no one had any rights except those granted to them by the ruling class of kings and priests, who were believed to be anointed and ordained by God to rule over them. In the many Kingdoms around the world, everything belonged to the ruling class, including even the subjects who were allowed to inhabit the kingdoms, and their personal circumstances, good or bad, were meted out solely at the pleasure of kings and priests. And our founding fathers didn\u2019t invent slavery. Slavery existed throughout the rest of the world. It began in the dawn of human history as the practice of conquerors forcing the conquered to do the manual labor required to repair the ravages of war and to maintain the empire thus established.\nToday, we\u2019d like to believe that the idea that \u201call men are created equal\u201d refers to not just men, but at least to all human beings, maybe even to all living things in some sense. But we also have to recognize that this equality can probably only be true in some sort of spiritual, or overall potential sense, not in the literal sense of physical or mental traits. Clearly, most of us were never physically equal, at birth, or any other time, to Shaquille O\u2019Neil, nor are any of us intellectually equal to Albert Einstein or other geniuses of the past, or present. Jefferson and Franklin were not stupid men; they could look around and see that there were others who were their superiors in any number of ways. With these words, however, they were expressing an ideal upon which they believed a better government could be established.\nTo be gifted physically or mentally does not make one intrinsically superior to anyone else. But everyone should be free to use and develop their own unique gifts to the maximum extent possible in his or her lifetime, otherwise such gifts are wasted. But no one should be condemned or looked down upon for their gifts or lack thereof: Prejudice and reverse prejudice are two sides of the same evil coin, and should not be the basis of condemnation or avoidance.\nSo, please have a look at the ideas, poems, discussions, cogitations and proofs recorded in my blog, with an open mind. Maybe you\u2019ll find something of value there. Please read and consider as many of them as you will. I don\u2019t claim to be all-knowing or infallible. The possession of the gift of a high level of intelligence does not preclude error or fallacy. The smartest person in the world can still be wrong, and wisdom is often simple and plain. But civilization moves forward with the fuel of new ideas, and my blog posts contain some new ideas, including the discovery of the mathematical and physical necessary of the existence of a non-physical aspect of reality we call gimmel. Each post in the blog has a list of Key Words and Phrases. Type in those that are of interest into the search box, or make up some of your own, and explore!\nI will appreciate any feedback, questions and comments, positive or negative.\n--Edward R.

CLOSE, Equality, Freedom, Genius, Gifted, Gimmel, IQ, New Ideas, The Declaration of Independence\nZordial Qulog June 6, 2018 at 2:06 PM\nDrawing from what you said about how we normally only process a fraction of the complete energy spectrum that DOES reach us all the time, I highly recommend you read the following if you haven't yet:\nKeep in mind, however, that as you said, every perception we get is filtered by the lenses of our belief system.\nEdward Close June 7, 2018 at 4:26 AM\nThank you for this link. I read this several years ago, but am pleased to have it available again. I have lost or misplaced my copy, but I have a copy of Leadbeater's book \"The Chakras\", which I purchased in Baltimore in 1969. It has some of the same ideas in the preface and in the chapter on developing the chakras.\nZordial Qulog June 8, 2018 at 10:37 AM\nOh... I need to read that other book then :)\njefk June 14, 2018 at 12:16 PM\nWayne Fuller June 7, 2018 at 11:35 AM\nI am educated layman who first heard of your work via 'new thinking allowed' on youtube. As I am not a mathematician, I am curious why your proof of Fermat's Last Theorem goes unrecognized despite its brevity? Eleizer Yudkowsky, an AI polymath, once stated that the odds of a theorem being wrong is approximately 1 in 1000. It would seem to my mind a very short proof is far more likely to be without errors and easier to know if its true, whereas a very long proof might actually be false given all the steps.\nCan I find a valid copy via Amazon? Also, do you believe it could be verified without any special knowledge and thus something any professor could verify? I remember the interview on 'New Thinking Allowed' stating it used techniques that were common at the time.\nI do this for my own interest primarily, perhaps something to pass along to my kids as I refused to believe in anything infinite as a teenager. But of course your collaboration with Dr. Neppe \"closes\" so many problems I had with those ideas. Its wonderful. And yet, I still need more confirmation given my lack of expertise. Surely recognition of your prior success would help with funding?\nAlso do you have any desire to be interviewed for posterity or at least historical reasons? I plan on trying to get your ideas to various professors I know or new. Yet it feels like this is in vain. It feels like I am missing something very basic.\nEdward Close June 7, 2018 at 5:42 PM\nHello Wayne, Thank you for your interest. I quite agree with you that a short proof is less likely to contain errors that are difficult to identify than long, convoluted complex proofs. My proof depends on application of a very basic mathematical theorem: the Algebraic Division Algorithm. The proof is much less complicated than the reasons that it hasn't bee generally recognized! I will be happy to get a copy of the 1965 proof of FLT to you. If you type \"Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem\", or \"FLT65\" into the search box at the upper left of the Transcendental Physics blog, it should bring up the proof and relevant discussions. There is also a detailed history of the submittal of the proof to professional mathematicians and how and why it has been ignored and/or misinterpreted for so lomg on the blog site. I can email the proof and relevant material to you so you'll have hard copies to study at your liesure. I am snowed under with papers to edit, and a lot of other things right now, but I definitely will try to get the proof and pertinent discussions to you as soon as I can. Thanks again for the interest.\nWayne, I'm on FB, so if you are also, send me a friend request and we can communicate more easily.\nExcellent! I will friend you before I fall asleep. Thanks!",

It is the first and only Chinese symphony orchestra to have toured and performed on five continents, receiving acclaim as \u201cone of China\u2019s most prestigious music ensembles\u201d (China Daily) and \u201cChina\u2019s nexus of musical tradition and innovation\u201d (Financial Times).\nThe GSO has sustained long-term relationships with numerous renowned musicians at home and abroad, establishing a wide international network and enjoying a high reputation among the world\u2019s music circles. In the past seasons, the GSO has regularly invited the most accomplished conductors, soloists and singers to collaborate in repertoire ranging from Baroque to modern pieces, attracting a wider audience and creating valuable opportunities for the orchestra\u2019s musicians to improve their expertise. \u201cIt was the best sound I ever heard from among Chinese orchestras,\u201d the famous Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki remarked after attending a GSO concert. In 2004, international artist agencies began to engage the GSO for international performance tours and high-profile cultural programs, bringing the orchestra and its reputation to every corner of the world.\nBeginning in 2000, the GSO was sent on numerous tours by the Chinese Ministry of Culture and the Guangdong Provincial People\u2019s Government to Austria, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Egypt, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Thailand, Singapore, among others. The GSO had the privilege to perform on the stages of the Goldenensaal of Vienna\u2019s Musikverein, Th\u00e9\u00e2tre des Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es in Paris, Amsterdam\u2019s Concertgebouw, Cairo Opera House, Sydney Opera House, New York\u2019s Carnegie Hall, Boston\u2019s Symphony Hall, Washington\u2019s Kennedy Center, Berlin Konzerthaus, Venice\u2019s Teatro La Fenice, Florence\u2019s Teatro Verdi, Lucerne Culture and Convention Centre, Tokyo Opera City Concert Hall, Singapore\u2019s Esplanade-Theatres on the Bay, the Tonhalle Z\u00fcrich, Geneva Victoria Hall, London\u2019s Cadogan Hall, Manchester\u2019s Bridgewater Hall and Birmingham Symphony Hall, among other world-famous venues. In 2006, the GSO was invited to perform in the opening and closing ceremonies of the 15th Asian Games in Doha, Qatar. The orchestra has appeared more than 20 times at the Hong Kong Arts Festival, Macao Arts Festival and Macao International Music Festival. In October 2012, the GSO made its Taiwan debut during the Guangdong City Cultural Week at the Cross-Strait City Arts Festival, with concerts in Taipei\u2019s Theater and Concert Hall and the Taichung Chung Hsing Hall. In September 2014, on the occasion of the NSW-Guangdong Sister-State 35th Anniversary, the GSO performed two concerts in Sydney\u2019s City Recital Hall, Angel Place, and Canberra\u2019s Llewellyn Hall. In January 2015, invited by Migros Kulturprozent Classics, the GSO made its fifth tour to Europe and performed in Zurich, Geneva, Bern and St. Gallen. In 2017, the GSO made its sixth European tour, visiting London, Manchester and Birmingham on the occasion of the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United Kingdom, making headlines in The Guardian as a \u201chighly accomplished band.\u201d The orchestra not only fulfills its role as cultural ambassador to third countries, but also promotes meaningful exchanges within the Pearl River Delta region and across the Straits.\nThe world-renowned artist and UNESCO Global Goodwill Ambassador Tan Dun has made an indelible mark on the world's music scene with a creative repertoire that spans the boundaries of classical music, multimedia performance, and Eastern and Western traditions. Tan Dun is Dean of the Bard College Conservatory of Music. He has won a great number of prestigious honors, including the Grammy Award, Oscar/Academy Award, Grawemeyer Award, Bach Prize, Shostakovich Award, and most recently, Italy\u2019s Golden Lion Award for Lifetime Achievement. Tan Dun's music has been played throughout the world by leading orchestras, opera houses, international festivals, and on radio and television. This past year, Tan Dun conducted the grand opening celebration of Disneyland Shanghai which was broadcast to a record-breaking audience worldwide.\nAs a conductor of innovative programs around the world, Tan Dun has led the China tours of the Mahler Chamber Orchestra and Japan\u2019s NHK Symphony Orchestra. His current season includes leading the NDR Radiophilharmonie in a five-city tour in Germany, as well as engagements with the London Symphony Orchestra and at the Venice Biennale. Tan Dun currently serves as the Honorary Artistic Director of the China National Symphony Orchestra. Next season, he will also conduct Orchestre National de Lyon in their tour to China. Tan Dun has led the world's most esteemed orchestras, including the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Orchestre National de France, BBC Symphony Orchestra, Filarmonica della Scala, M\u00fcnchner Philharmoniker, the Orchestra dell\u2019Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Sydney Symphony Orchestra, among others.\nTan Dun\u2019s individual voice has been heard widely by international audience. His first Internet Symphony, which was commissioned by Google/YouTube, has reached over 23 million viewers online. His Organic Music Trilogy of Water, Paper and Ceramic has frequented major concert halls and festivals. Paper Concerto was premiered with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the opening of the Walt Disney Hall. His multimedia work, The Map, premiered by YoYo Ma and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, has toured more than 30 countries. Its manuscript has been collected by the Carnegie Hall Composers Gallery. His Orchestral Theatre IV: The Gate was premiered by Japan\u2019s NHK Symphony Orchestra and crosses the cultural boundaries of Peking Opera, Western Opera and puppet theatre traditions. Other important premieres include Four Secret Roads of Marco Polo for the Berlin Philharmonic, Piano Concerto \u201cThe Fire\u201d for Lang Lang and the New York Philharmonic. In recent seasons, his percussion concerto, The Tears of Nature, for soloist Martin Grubinger premiered in 2012 with the NDR Symphony Orchestra and Nu Shu: The Secret Songs of Women Symphony for 13 Microfilms, Harp and Orchestra was co-commissioned by The Philadelphia Orchestra, NHK Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Amsterdam.\nAs a visual artist, Tan Dun\u2019s work featured the opening of the China Pavilion at the 56th Venice Art Biennale. Other solo exhibitions include the New York\u2019s Guggenheim Museum, Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), Beijing\u2019s Chambers Fine Art Gallery, and Shanghai Gallery of Art. Most recently, Tan Dun conducted The Juilliard Orchestra in the world premiere of his Symphony of Colors: Terracotta for the opening of New York\u2019s Metropolitan Museum of Art\u2019s epic exhibition The Age of Empires.\nAs a global cultural leader, Tan Dun uses his creativity to raise awareness of environmental issues and to protect cultural diversity. In 2010, as \u201cCultural Ambassador to the World\u201d for the World EXPO Shanghai, Tan Dun envisioned, curated and composed two special site-specific performances that are staged year-round and that have since become cultural symbols of Shanghai: Peony Pavilion, a Chinese opera set in a Ming Dynasty garden and his Water Heavens string quartet which promotes water conservation and environmental awareness. Tan Dun was also commissioned by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to write the Logo Music and Award Ceremony Music for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Tan Dun currently serves as Honorary Chair of Carnegie Hall\u2019s China Advisory Council, and has previously served as Creative Chair of the 2014 Philadelphia Orchestra China Tour, Associate Composer/Conductor of the BBC Scottish Symphony, and Artistic Director of the Festival Water Crossing Fire held at the Barbican Centre.\nTan Dun records for Sony Classical, Deutsche Grammophon, EMI, Opus Arte and Naxos. His recordings have garnered many accolades, including a Grammy Award (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and nomination (The First Emperor; Marco Polo; Pipa Concerto), Japan\u2019s Recording Academy Awards for Best Contemporary Music CD (Water Passion after St. Matthew) and the BBC\u2019s Best Orchestral Album (Death and Fire). Tan Dun\u2019s music is published by G.

        "raw_content": "What to do when in jail? Joseph Nguyen Cong Doan sj could probably write the book of that title, having had ample time to think about it during the years he spent as a political prisoner in Vietnam, from 1980 to 1990. Now as the East Asia and Oceania Regional Assistant to Peter Hans Kolvenbach, the Rome-based Jesuit Father General, his is one of the most visible and powerful positions in the order. For the Jesuits, being a political prisoner can be something very like paying one\u2019s dues as a blues musician: survivors of the process come out with something special to offer the rest of the world.\nHow did he survive? It was a dangerous time and place to be an active Catholic, in a post-war Vietnam scarred and suspicious of Western influence. In the 1980s most of the people of his generation were rebuilding families and lives. In the rest of the world it was the time when affluent baby-boomers were raising their families, buying their houses, building careers. Vietnam, the big noise of the 60s and early 70s, the icon for Western dissent and Western youth\u2019s claiming of personal freedom, was all but forgotten as marriage, mortgages and material aspiration took over. As Doan served his sentence for \u2018anti-revolutionary propaganda\u2019 the world was changing; when he was released there would be work of a different kind, with tasks infinitely more complex, with a materialism more insidious than the idealistic kind that imbued his captors.\nInside jail there was prayer: he prayed seven hours a day. At times the prison was crowded, with up to 12 people in one small cell. It meant that Fr Doan effectively became the chaplain; there were seven other Jesuits, a Dominican and four lay people to attend to. Later there was farm work, an arduous but welcome respite from confinement. Talking with Fr Doan you can easily recall the stories of martyrs under the Tudors: Edmund Campion (the first one), and others of that ilk, called to account by Jesuits\u2019 various enemies of the past. At times he was interrogated up to three times a day in two-hour blocks. One day the chief of the investigators, after having confiscated all the documents of the Society, focused on a section that was to do with fighting atheism. Doan tells it quietly, but you get the feel of an epic battle of wit: the challenge to speak honestly without causing more trouble than was sensible.\n\u2018He said, \u201cYou are fighting against us.\u201d I replied \u201cYour atheism causes us to reflect. Capitalist atheism is far more dangerous\u201d.\u2019\nDoan\u2019s words were possibly prophetic: the work that faces him now is extraordinary. His area of responsibility includes his homeland, (where there is increased tolerance of religion by the Vietnamese government) the hugely diverse societies of South Asia\u2014and us, the privileged Anglo First World outposts of Australia and New Zealand. Obviously the tasks differ widely, and Doan has been visiting Australia recently to see how we are. As far as passing on the message of the gospel from a Catholic perspective, the prospects are, as policymakers so often say, challenging.\nHe talks about the spiritual famine that can face First Worlders:\n\u2018Life becomes a closed circle,\u2019 he says. \u2018So many things to buy! People with two, three jobs to make money to buy more. Everything becomes commercial. And with TV, newspapers, and [being] constantly entertained, there is no time to think, to reflect on what you are watching, how you are living. People are caught in a spider\u2019s web, closed to other needs.\u2019\nIt might be simplistic to draw out the paradox of our spiritual prison and physical freedoms against Doan\u2019s experience of their diametrical opposites, but while he is speaking I have a sudden image of his utter felicity in those seven hours of daily prayer, bearing in mind the old catechism definition of prayer as \u2018lifting up of the mind and heart to God\u2019.\nI think too of the difficulty of passing on the message to the next generation: the children of First-World baby-boomers are more afraid of wearing the wrong brand of shoes than they should be. Their spiritual hungers have been catered for by the global merchants, who provide them with a level of entertainment that would exhaust a Roman emperor. When they need to feel connected with their fellow humans they go clubbing, drink very hard, take a few \u2018E\u2019s and have sex. How can the voice of God be heard through all that noise?\nI tackle him about it: \u2018why don\u2019t Jesuits go to that part of society, the vast mass of middle-ranging people who need something more than consumerism? Why do they focus on the very top and very bottom of society?\u2019\nHe isn\u2019t fazed: he\u2019s survived interrogation before. He refers me kindly but firmly back to Ignatius, as so many Jesuits will do. He reminds me that Ignatius had a principle of knowing how to choose what to do, and it seems to be very close to the current wisdom of not spreading yourself too thin, to focus hard in one or two areas. From the time of Ignatius, Jesuits have been trying to influence the powerful to treat the poor better. Knowing fully that that is a very big ask, with mixed success at best, Jesuits also have to be helping the poor at the same time. It occurs to me some time after the interview that there wasn\u2019t much of a spiritually needy and materially insecure middle class in Ignatius\u2019 day, but I am sure Fr Doan would have an informative answer for that too.\nIt has often been the fate of Jesuits to be in the firing line simply because they take the fight up to where they see the most action: the most obvious adversaries are poverty and oppression, and the glossy, well-fed, confident elites who cause the trouble. The needs are glaring, with clear-cut tasks: improve this, argue against that, work with this, fight that. It keeps the recruits flowing in, particularly in places like Vietnam, where there are 16 first-year novices among their five million Catholics. (In Australia, there are four novices, two of them first years. We also have about five million Catholics.)\nIt is a tantalising prospect: soon, certainly within a generation or two, most orders will be finished, their special flavour of Catholicism lost, except in the Third World. The still mainly Anglo-European First World countries will be non-Christian, their schools secularised, their cathedrals little but items on tourists\u2019 itineraries of monuments and past glories. Into this will come, I\u2019m willing to bet, missionaries from places like Vietnam, the Philippines, India, Africa. They will be bearing the message that was taken to them centuries ago, and doing the job with more compassion and enlightenment than was done with them. Fr Doan\u2019s ancestors were among the very first converts to Christianity in Vietnam in the 17th century. His spiritual children will be needing to convert the West back. If anyone can organise it, he will.\nJuliette Hughes is a freelance writer.\nRecent articles by Juliette Hughes .\nCould their telly be worse than their soccer?\nWhile looking for any books or articles by Fr.

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a magazine \u203a april may 2013 \u203a business reports \u203a Beyond reasonable doubt\nIt\u2019s a well known fact that as a result of the current economic climate, cash strapped consumers are far more likely to pursue a compensation claim for personal injury than they might perhaps otherwise have done during less \u2018lean\u2019 times. Shane Clifford of software specialist Zetes explains how software can help to curb the compensation culture.\nIt\u2019s a well known fact that as a result of the current economic climate, cash strapped consumers are far more likely to pursue a compensation claim for personal injury than they might perhaps otherwise have done during less \u2018lean\u2019 times. This trend is further validated by internal data from leading retailers, which shows a clear correlation between the level of compensation claims made and general levels of personal affluence within an area. In parts of the country where shoppers have less disposable income, due to high unemployment levels for instance, the value of payouts for personal injury claims made is higher than in other more \u2018well heeled\u2019 areas with lower jobless levels.\nWhat does this have to do with the cleaning profession you might wonder? Well, if cleaning is contracted out to a third party, they may ultimately be responsible for paying the costs of the claim, depending on who is thought to be at fault. From experience, if the \u2018venue\u2019 owner who originally engaged a professional cleaning company can demonstrate they had taken due care and attention, they would typically take care of the legal costs because the claim could be defended. If the case is less clear-cut and there may be cause to suspect that the cleaning company had been negligent, the latter would be liable for damages and costs, which, multiplied over the course of a year, can run into six figures.\nResearch conducted by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has showed that over 20 per cent of all claims for compensation are due to slips and trips, which result in typical pay outs of between 3,500 and 12,500 euros. Add to this the fact that most injury claims are presented two years after an incident takes place. This illustrates how difficult it is to defend solely with paper based records, unsurprisingly, many cleaning companies have no option but to write off the costs.\nThe industries that were shown to be most at risk of legal costs from claims included retail, food and hospitality, warehousing and distribution, plus the construction industries. Larger companies in particular were perceived by survey respondents as ideal targets for no-win, no fee opportunists, often because the claimants believed big brands could better \u2018afford to pay\u2019 out for opportunistic claims and were less financially vulnerable than smaller, independent businesses. In many cases, these frequently minor accidents would not have been avoidable, but payouts for compensation could be reduced through better management.\nThis is borne out in the experiences of one major retailer who has first hand experience of how cleaning management software can reduce costs, with a direct impact on profit levels. Software is therefore very important as a tool to protect contract cleaning professionals because it leaves an independently verifiable audit trail that the cleaning services were completed properly.\nCurrently, the frequency of what are often trivial or even false claims for accidents caused by unseen trips and falls cost larger retailers and leisure companies millions each year. The regularity of payouts even requires some retailers to set aside annual liability expenditure to cover legal expenses and compensation claims. Through ongoing monitoring and reporting, cleaning management software helps to reduce the incidence of accidents occurring and any resulting personal injury claims. This is achieved by ensuring both a regular workflow of cleaning operations is completed and that information is automatically captured to verify that due care and attention had been taken by the cleaning or facilities management company responsible.\nFor contract cleaning companies considering how software might add value to their operations and differentiate service provision, what should buyers look for in a solution?\nFlexibility to manage a diverse range of cleaning workflows and capture data to verify best practice at all times is very important. Because cleaning staff are mobile workers, any software needs to support this mobility and direct workers from the point when they first log onto the system at the start of a shift. As they go about their individual daily tasks, they are required to scan in and out of the different locations to be serviced using a small, rugged, handheld computer with a barcode scanner to capture barcodes located around the store or workplace and verify a job has been completed.\nAll scans or completed tasks result in a date and time stamp being recorded, which provides irrefutable evidence that facilities have been cleaned and maintained in accordance with requirements.\nLegally binding user dialogue and data capture is also important to ensure that evidence collected will stand up in court. The system needs to incorporate appropriate user dialogue, developed in partnership with legal experts, to ensure any evidence produced to defend a claim is robust enough to withstand a legal hearing. Linked to this is the need to combine written dialogue with visual communications to support a multi-lingual workforce. As English is unlikely to be the first language for most commercial cleaning workers today, how can you properly cater for their needs and capabilities? Having easy to understand visual icons to guide workers through their daily workflow is a must.\nIn addition to providing protection against claims, cleaning companies can use software to profile when they are greatest risk of spills occurring \u2013 usually during the busiest times of the day - and set their rostering accordingly.\nIn the past then, many negligence claims could not be defended by cleaning companies, because they lacked the right, legally robust data to prove public areas have been kept clean and safe. Cleaning management software removes any doubts by providing legally binding evidence of due diligence, which can be easily retrieved from a database in minutes. And because the software updates wirelessly in real time, it also provides full, real time visibility of what is happening to management and users can better manage cleaning processes, monitoring their time efficiency.\nwww.zetes.co.uk",

This glossary roams far and wide across all things \"family\", including love, sex, parenting, domestic violence, law, psychology, and the meaning of life. Don't get lost! All opinions expressed are those of your Webmaster and happen to be correct.\nFor Glenn Campbell's more recent philosophy writings, see his Home Page.\nObsolete Page This was our original place for philosophical discussions on Family Court and life in general. All entries were written in late 2005 or early 2006. There are many interesting articles here, but this section is no longer being updated. As of July 2006, most new philosophical discussions are now going into The Family Court Philosopher. (New organization commentaries are going into the Entity File.)\nTerms in green were invented by us (at least when used in this context). Terms in black were in use prior to our arrival. All of these entries are subject to revision, and we encourage your specific feedback on how they can be improved.\nIndex to Entries on this Page (listed by the field they best apply to)...\n\u2666 the 311 Boyz \ufffd a gang of racist white kids from wealthy Las Vegas neighborhoods who were accused of several violent attacks in 2003, some of which they videotaped. The most notorious of their crimes was smashing another youth's face with a rock. A possible example of the Summerlin Syndrome and the deleterous effects of being spoiled rotten. Articles: Sun overview | Sun search. Although the criminal case has been resolved, civil lawsuits between the families continue.\n\ufffd appeal \ufffd See case law.\n\u2665 attachment \ufffd The physiological bond between closely affiliated humans. Also sometimes referred to as \"imprinting.\" Attachment describes the unspoken bond between child and parent, between romantic partners and between close siblings. To a lessor extent, it is also the affiliation we feel for friends, coworkers and the recurring characters we like on TV.\nAttachment may sound like a good thing, and it is, but it also has its dark side. Perhaps the most painful of human experiences is when a strong attachment is abruptly broken. Attachment, in its darker domain, also helps explain the greatest mystery of Family Court, namely: Why is divorce such a nasty business?\n\u2660 AWOL \ufffd See failure to maintain placement.\n\ufffd baby lust \ufffd A fevered obsession occasionally experienced by human females. The victim is possessed by the overwhelming urge to bear or otherwise obtain an infant by any means possible. In extreme cases where gratification is frustrated, the female may lay in wait for a passing pregnant female, knock her over the head with a baseball bat, then try to cut her open to obtain the fetus therein. (See our blog entry for further documentation.) The etiology of the disease can be both hormonal and existential. The hormones say, \"I want a baby!\" The philosophical urges say, \"I NEED a baby!\" expressing the desperate hope that said infant will give one's life meaning. (Not true, but it certainly makes life busy for the next 20 years.) See also the magic baby pill.\n\ufffd the Batcave \ufffd The offices of Clark County Legal Services, as defined in Send in the Clowns.\n\ufffd Big Brother \ufffd The non-specific omnicient entity who watches over the Family Court and all its operations via TV cameras, microphones, recorded emails and human agents. Whenever something happens, Big Brother is there for us, guaranteeing that it is all caught on tape and can never be denied. Many of the high and mighty have been brought down by Big Brother, and no one who works here dares ignore him.\nBig Brother is a benevolent force who is here for the protection of all and who is never malicious or intrusive. No one would question the need for Big Brother, because a reliable record is always important in any government operation. Sometimes you even forget that he's there, until somebody slips up, and then Big Brother is all over it.\nBig Brother knows almost everything that happens in any courtroom through the many cameras and microphones there. He can also read any email message to or from clark.co.nv.us, even the ones that you thought you deleted. He can't read your thoughts, but if you ever put those thoughts into words, there is a good chance Big Brother will hear them.\nBig Brother is not merely electronic. He has agents everywhere, listening and watching and always ready to report you if it serves their interests. If you say or do something wrong, Big Brother will know, so everyone in the courthouse is very careful. If Big Brother says you should stamp a document in such-and-such a way, that's what you do, even if you don't understand why, because if you don't do it right Big Brother will eventually catch up with you, and things will not go well.\nBig Brother is not a person. He has no center and no leader. No one, from the highest judge to the lowest clerk, is hidden from his eye or immune to his penalties. Even the guys who run the video recorders have Big Brother looking over their shoulder, waiting for them to make a mistake.\nBig Brother is everywhere, and he is more than just surveillance. He also embodies the law, the organizational system, the media, the whims of public opinion and other higher forces that are difficult to define. Big Brother is a living organism who is bigger than any of us. It is like we are all bees living in a hive, each of us doing our own little job, but the hive itself also has a life and direction of its own that no one member can accurately see or predict. Even I can't see all of Big Brother, although I have tried, so I have to trust him.\nI love Big Brother. Sometimes I am called to serve him, and it fills me with pride whenever I do. My brothers and sisters shouldn't have done what they did, or said what they said, or I wouldn't have had to report them. It makes me sad when they have to go away, because I love them so much, but I love Big Brother even more.\n\ufffd bite control \ufffd A term used in dog training to refer to a dog's ability to limit the force of its bite when playing. Dogs without bite control will bite too hard and injure their playmates. In law and Family Services, bite control refers to a person's ability to use appropriate but not excessive force to achieve a desired end. For example, police officers without bite control will ticket you for the most trivial infraction. A prosecutor without bite control will \"throw the book\" at a defendent and demand maximum punishment with no regard to what is practical, compassionate and effective. Journalists without bite control will print any fact available to them, without regard to the effects of this disclosure.... Bite control means occasionally not doing your job in order to serve some higher purpose.\n\u2663 black hole \ufffd n. A dysfunctional family involved in the child protective system that absorbs infinite government resources with little positive effect.\nThese are the cases that make caseworkers and judges cry, \"Aggggh!\" and pull out their hair.\n\"I just don't know what to do,\" says one Family Court judge, head in his hands, commenting on the family standing before him. The family is surrounded (at least virtually) by a small army of caseworkers, counselors, court-appointed lawyers, juvenile probation officers, psychiatrics, visiting nurses, special ed teachers, parenting instructors and clergy.\nOf the large, indeterminate number of children in the family, only a few are present in the courtroom. Three have extensive arrest records; one is a runaway; one is currently in juvenile detention; and two are currently in therapeutic foster care. Dad has just got out of jail\ufffdagain\ufffdand Mom has been working two jobs to try to support this mess, leaving the children largely unsupervised. There has been a lot of activity since the last court hearing\ufffdcatastrophes of all kinds\ufffdbut little progress toward completion of the case plan.\n\"Someone left the barn door open,\" says the judge.\nBlack hole parents might dabble in drugs and petty crime, but they never do anything bad enough to fulfill the high standards of Termination of Parental Rights. They are usually well-meaning sorts who try their best but simply don't have the intellectual capacity or mental stability to manage their children.\nTheir family life is one stupid crisis after another, which eventually brings them to the attention of the county. Intensive services are brought to bear: in-home intervention, parenting classes, counseling, social support services of every kind. And it has no appreciable effect.\n\"We's try'n, judge,\" say the parents in court, \"but them kids is always misbehav'n!\"\nSome of the younger kids have been taken into foster care, where they thrive. The others run wild and become involved in the Juvenile Delinquency system. Every day there's a new disaster, and the common refrain of service providers is, \"You put out one fire here and another one starts over there.\"\nThe parents respond to the chaos in their home in the logical, Constitutionally-protected way: They have more babies.\n\"That old 'uns will take care of the young 'uns,\" they explain.\nObserving cases like this from the back of the courtroom, I too go, \"Aggggh!\"\nSeeing the helplessness of the system in the face of such idiocy turns me not just into an interventionist liberal, but a fricking Nazi interventionist liberal.\nI don't just support abortion and tubal ligation anymore. I will perform these procedures myself.\nI am tempted to give these people some money and say, \"Please buy some drugs.\" If these parents were incurable addicts, then the system could do something, but often they're not. They're just dim bulbs, perhaps marginally mentally ill but not technically a \"danger to self or others.\" The state has few effective tools for dealing with this situation.\nThe more support the family receives, the more it adjusts to this support and goes right back to the way it was. (See the Pigeon Paradox.) Ultimately, the government has to neglect these black hole families, at least to some extent, because no one client can be allowed to absorb all of the state's resources.\nWhen you neglect the family, bad things are going to happen. Kids die, and the press demands: \"Why didn't the system do anything?\" The answer often is that the system tried, but the needs of the family were too great for any mortal agency.\n\u2663 boundaries \ufffd The borders between individual people, similar to the frontiers between countries. France and Germany have a border between them and so do Judy and Sam. Understanding how people perceive and defend their boundaries is a key to understanding the dynamics of both functional and dysfunctional families.\nRight now there is a pretty clear boundary between me and you. I am writing this webpage and you are reading it. It would be pretty upsetting to me if you started modifying my webpage, and it would be equally upsetting to you if I came into your home, turned on your computer and started reading it to you. Although there is room for negotiation between us, we pretty much agree on where I end and you begin.\nIn dysfunctional families, there may not be this understanding. When you live with someone, it can be hard to figure out the boundary between you and them. Strong, self-confident people can work it out and come to a stable agreement. Weak, insecure people can't decide on their borders and get into perpetual conflict because of it. \"I love you\" can be the start of a volatile relationship where I let you in, then push you away, then draw you close again. I can't decide how close you should come, because I don't know who I am.\nIn functional families, members give each other their \"space\" while setting firm guidelines for behavior. They tell their 16-year-old daughter, \"No, your 23-year-old boyfriend can not come live with us, and I want you home by 10 o'clock, young lady.\" Dysfunctional families are unable to draw these lines. They either let their daughter run wild or they lock her in her room. Most often it is both: Complete neglect of the child interspersed with absurd and ineffective punishment.\nIf you step on my toe, I am going to say \"ouch!\" and pull away. If you cut me off in traffic, I am going to honk my horn. If you try to move into my home without my consent, I am going to politely ask you to leave and call the police if you don't. I call this pushback. I know where my boundaries are, and if you cross them, I am going to react with appropriate force to push you back.\nThe dysfunctionals can't do that. They either vastly overreact to a space intrusion or they don't react at all. In many families, a 23-year-old boyfriend moving into the house with your 16-year-old daughter is not that unusual. The parents don't say yes and they don't say no, until the dad gets drunk one night and kicks both the boyfriend and the daughter out.\nThat's the stuff that dysfunctional families are made of.\n\u2665 Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) \ufffd A usually incurable mental illness where a person is unable to regulate their own emotions due to a fundamental deficit of core self-esteem.\n\u2666 Caliente Youth Camp \ufffd A minimum security juvenile detention facility run by the state. Official info | photo tour | architect's photos of high school. Formerly served only girls, but now serves both boys and girls (a dangerous combination, as it results in a lot of posturing by both sides). (Caliente itself is a remote railroad town about 150 road miles from Las Vegas. Las Vegans call it \"cali-entay.\" Locals pronounce it \"cali-enny.\" )\n\u2660 CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) \ufffd A program, sponsored by the District Court, which assigns volunteers to look after the best interests of children in foster care and abuse/neglect cases. Website. Similar to other programs around the country. From their website:\nCASAs are trained volunteers who advocate for abused and neglected children in the Clark County Family Court. The CASA volunteer, serving as a court appointed advocate for the child, will prevent the child from getting lost in the system by being sensitive to the child's needs and presenting these needs to the Court.... CASA volunteer advocates are sworn court officers trained to work one-on-one with these children and are best equipped to advocate for what the child needs, and to serve as trusted mentors and friends. CASA volunteers help make sure that the educational, medical and practical needs of these children are identified and met.... The CASA volunteer's commitment is intense, and his or her impact on the child's life is significant. CASA is the only agency operating in Las Vegas providing court appointed volunteer advocacy exclusively to this group of young people.\n\ufffd case law \ufffd Refinements in the interpretation of law as established by rulings in courts of appeal.\nCase law is what happens after a statute has been passed. No matter how carefully worded the written law may be, there are going to be ambiguities in it. There are going to be a lot of special circumstances and implications that the Legislature never considered when making the law. There will also be conflicts between laws, where one law tells you to do one thing and another tells you something else. Case law\ufffdor the actual application of the law upon appeal\ufffdhelps resolve these ambiguities and differences.\n\u2666 certification \ufffd The legal process by which juveniles who commit serious crimes are transferred to adult court. In Nevada, any child 14 years of age or older who commits a felony is eligible for certification (62B.390). A murder charge automatically results in certification (at any age), as do certain sexual assaults and crimes involving a firearm if the child is 16 or older and has a prior felony history (62B.330). Other felonies occupy a big gray area that depends on the nature and seriousness of the crime, the defendant's history, his mental health, drug abuse, whether he can be helped by the juvenile system and whether \"public safety\" is at risk.\nFor the kid, certification is almost always a bad thing. It means that he is going to be tried as an adult and will be thrown into an adult prison if convicted. Adult court is about punishment and societal retribution, with little attention given to rehabilitation. Often it means a harsher sentence, up to life in prison. Other times, certification could result in a lighter sentence with no attempts at treatment, which puts the kid back on the street with none of his issues addressed.\n\ufffd charity \ufffd Generosity or helpfulness to those who we regard as less fortunate than ourselves. Acts of charity, in theory, are done with little or no expectation of direct reward, although we do hope that our efforts will have some substantial and lasting effect. Contributing in some way to the needs of children in the juvenile justice and foster care systems is usually considered a worthy charity; the only question is how to do it so that conditions for all children are actually improved in the long run.\nIt is the contention of some philosophers, such as Ayn Rand, that no true charity exists. Everyone has an \"agenda\" and is looking for some form of personal self-agrandizement by giving to others.\nThis theory neglects the true soul-searching of someone who believes he is helping others. Bill Gates or Andre Agassi may have mixed motives in helping disadvantaged children, but their methods are still fairly sophisticated and are concerned with results. Cynical charity is when a mafioso gives money to a local orphanage to buy respectability. Non-cynical charity is when you obey some higher theory\ufffdarrived at in good faith\ufffdof what will really help the children in the long run.\nIt is semi-cynical when the Catholic Church builds orphanages in Third World countries while at the same time working against any form of effective birth control, thus guaranteeing more homeless children. No matter how noble one action may be, it is cancelled out by the other. It is also semi-cynical whenever you focus only on the short-term effects of what you do, like \"Can you feed this starving child?\", without also considering the long-term effects on all children.\nNon-cynical charity is when you see the whole picture, recognizing that there are limits on what you can do and that the relief of immediate suffering is not the most important goal. Non-cynical charity involves a lot of sophisticated strategizing and long-term tactical thinking, not just feeling good at the moment.\nOnce your own survival and comfort are assured, it is reasonable to want to help others. If you expect admission to Heaven for it, that's fine. Just remember that God is probably a results-oriented manager. It is not sufficient just to do good works; you should also make sure that the end results are good, over the course of all the foreseeable future. [12/26/05]\n\ufffd Children's Attorney Project (CAP) \ufffd A program that provides free attorneys to represent the wishes of a child in foster care or abuse/neglect proceedings. Here is their minimally descriptive webpage (archive copy 1/6/05). The program is discussed in our \"Send in the Clowns\" article. These attorneys are provided under contract (with the county?) by Clark County Legal Services, a non-profit law firm that provides various legal services to the indigent. The Executive Director, Barbara Buckley is also a state legislator, so the group is actively involved in the development of new child welfare legislation. The CAP program is supposed to represent what children themselves say they want, rather than what others think they need. It is supposed to \"empower\" kids by giving them a say in processes effecting them.\nWhile it may sound noble to give a child his own attorney, the CAP program is murky in both law and practice. The problem boils down to \"needs\" vs. \"wishes\". The rest of the legal system is concerned with the best interests of the child, which may be entirely different from his expressed wishes. Which one is the CAP attorney supposed to represent?\nMagician Nathan Burton, in the fifth day of his starvation stunt for Child Haven, is suspended with seven showgirls in a clear box\nChild Haven \ufffd Clark County's emergency shelter for abused and neglected children, located adjacent to the Family Court complex. When children are taken into protective custody, they are usually brought here first. Child Haven consists of 7 home-like \"cottages\" (Agassi, Alchu, Beazer, Bigelow, Howard, Nork, O'Bannon) plus an administration building and a school (run by the Clark County School District). Official Info | Sun photos\n\ufffd Children's Service Guild \ufffd Apparently, a quasi-independent board that receives and distributes private donations made to Child Haven and other parts of Family Services. Mailing address is the same as DFS. I assume that it is something like the \"Friends of the Library,\" performing certain funding tasks that the government itself can't do.\n\ufffd circle c'ed \ufffd The condition of having received a \"circle-C\" (\ufffd) on our People Page. According to the page, \"C\" stands for \"connection\".\n\ufffd cocoon \ufffd /k&-'k\ufffdn/ n. The protective envelope that we all tend to spin around ourselves to protect us from the pain and tragedy of the world. We don't have to feel bad for others if we no longer see their discomfort, and this is what the cocoon is designed to do.\nA cocoon is the product of restricted vision and distracted attention. To avoid the distress of dealing with poverty, we stop driving through that part of town. We occupy ourselves with meaningless activities, like interior decorating or watching TV, so we don't have time to think bad thoughts. We start worrying about fashion and status and the vintage of the wine we are drinking. We stop feeling the feelings of the people we meet and see them only by their service role: maid, cashier, car repair guy. We don't feel uncomfortable about anything we do to them, because as far as we can see everything in the world is fine.\nEvery once in a while, there is a tear in the fabric of our cocoon, which seems to us like a bolt of lightning out of the blue. Whenever we get cancer or lose a loved one or our house burns to the ground, we say, \"How can such a tragedy happen?\" Get real! Tragedy is happening all the time, all around us, but our cocoon has prevented us from seeing it. If we didn't have so many layers around us, maybe we wouldn't be so surprised.\nIn general, cocoons tend to be thicker the more things you own. Thus the silk of 89134 tends to be more impenetrable than 89101. The more you have, the more you need to protect, and the more restricted your vision of the world must become to preserve your sense of security and inner peace. The most pampered worms are especially vulnerable when tragedy finally breaks through, because they are the least prepared for it.\nIf you own nothing of luxury and are already doing what you can to help others, then the cocoon is less necessary. If you choose to, you can see all the suffering around you, understand your own limitations and accept it all without blindness or despair.\n\u2666 The Columbine Effect \ufffd The national hysteria generated by the 1999 massacre of 12 students and a teacher at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado, which subsequently gave school systems around the country permission to dump their routine discipline problems on the Juvenile Justice system.\nMore than any other event, Columbine gave us the policy of \"zero tolerance.\" To prevent another massacre, the theory went, we would not accept any kind of criminal activity in our schools. No drugs would be tolerated under any circumstance. Every incident of violence or vandalism would be prosecuted. No threat of any kind, be it written or verbal, would be dismissed as insignificant.\nIt sounded so noble. No one wants crime in school, and Columbine gave us the motivation to get tough.\nThe end result, however, can be seen every day in Juvenile Court: a steady stream of trivial cases referred by the school system. Things that used be handled effectively in the principal's office are now dumped on the court, at a much greater cost to both the kids and the taxpayer.\nA typical case is the \"hot potato.\" Some kid brings something to school that he shouldn't have: maybe a stink bomb (\"an incendiary device\") or a pill from his mom's medicine cabinet (\"a Class 2 controlled substance\"). In class, the kid says to Steve, the guy next to him, \"pass this to Joe.\" Steve tries to, but Joe won't accept it. The teacher catches Steve with the \"hot potato\" and he gets arrested. \"Zero tolerance\" requires that both he and the entire chain of custody be prosecuted. No exceptions. Steve, in some cases, doesn't even know what he's passing to Joe, but that's no defense under the law.\nThe Juvenile Justice system is overburdened enough with cases of real danger and violence; now it has to deal with these baloney ones as well. Since the violations are technically illegal, the court is not allowed to brush them off. Certain procedures have to be followed: a public defender and a probation officer have to be assigned; drug assessments must be made; reports must be written; consequences ceremoniously handed out; stern lectures given.\nIn most cases, this is a single isolated incident by a kid who has never been involved in the justice system before. There may be nothing served by his being here, and in fact the system may end up doing far more emotional violence to him then he ever did in the school.\nPost-Columbine, if any kid writes \"Die, Teacher, Die!\" in his notebook, it's a terrorist threat. If he draws a hang-man on his desk, it's a terrorist threat and destruction of school property. In one case I saw in court recently, a kid was charged with writing graffiti in a school restroom with a washable marker! (It seems to me that the sensible punishment is to make him wash it off and spend a couple days of detention.) The kids plead guilty, because that's the easiest thing to do. They serve their probation and community service, then leave the system with some understandable bitterness. Or maybe they just say, \"Fuck it! If they think I'm bad, then I'll be bad.\"\nOne wonders how many additional crimes were encouraged by zero tolerance rather than stopped by it. It's like our belligerent \"War on Terror,\" efficiently creating new terrorist groups worldwide.\nSchool administrators have no great incentive to change the policy. The public loves it, and it gives them an opportunity to dump their discipline problems elsewhere. \"Problem kids\" get so harshly treated, both inside and outside the school system, that they are tacitly encouraged to drop out, so they're no longer a problem to anyone and don't draw down the test scores. (Incidently, Las Vegas' chronically under-funded schools\ufffdbut big on discipline\ufffdhave one of the highest dropout rates in the country.)\nThe Juvenile Court can't fight back. If crimes are referred to them, they have to handle them. They can't say \"Back Off!\" to the school system.\nIt's all a perfect tragedy \ufffd caused by the hysteria that came before the hysteria of 9-11. What hysteria will tomorrow bring, and how will the innocent suffer? Stay tuned.\nRelevant Article: Schools Working to Distinguish Misbehaving From Criminal Acts (1/21/05)\n\u2666 Coroner's Tour \ufffd An attempt to \"scare kids straight\" by exposing young offenders to the horrors of the county morgue. Participants view a series of graphic photos of grisly death\ufffdcar accidents, gun wounds, drug overdoses, etc. Then they are taken into the back and shown real dead bodies.\n\u2660 covet \ufffd /'k&-v&t/ v. A biblical word for \"desire\" but with negative connotations. Covet is a useful word when describing the reasons that people have babies or want to become adoptive parents. Do you \"want\" a baby, or do you \"covet\" a baby? The latter has a connotation of \"I need this for me,\" much as one would feel when purchasing a consumer item. When you \"covet\" something, your goal is not to serve that object but to have that object serve you. Baby lust is a form of covetousness, as is the magic baby pill.\nThere is a lot of covetousness in this world (It powers our economy!) and plenty of it in the foster care system.\nIf a retired couple decides to use their freedom to care for foster children rather than sitting on the beach in Miami, this is not covetousness. They are seeking to serve the children and don't need the children to serve them. It is a little different when a younger couple who are unable to have children themselves come into the foster care system wanting a baby of less than eighteen months, of a certain race, physically healthy, who is likely to become free for adoption. \"Covet\" just might apply there.\nThe decision to become a parent, in any form, can get really murky in this regard. What are your real motivations? Do you see a child who needs you and who you have the resources to help? Or is there some kind of desperation inside that you are trying to fill up? Hey, the county isn't going to ask, so it's just between you and me. Why do you really want to do this?\nAre you trying to create a little \"Mini Me\" \ufffd a clone in your own image to whom you can give all your precious traits and who of course will worship you? That's kind of an ego thing, don't you think? It never really works out that way. Clones have a way of rebelling and turning into something quite different from the plan.\nI'm not saying your motivations are impure. This is humanity: It's all impure. All I am saying is think about it. Get your head on straight. Take a look at your partner and think about how you will get along without a child, and if you find you don't need one, then maybe you should get one.\n\u2663 crazy \ufffd The non-politically-correct term that we should never use to describe the mentally ill. Instead, they are \"clients with mental health issues.\" As a practical matter, calling them crazy only makes them more so, as in: \"Crazy? You want to see crazy? WELL I'LL GIVE YOU FUCKING CRAZY!!!!!\"\n\ufffd creepy \ufffd A vague and unsubstantiated sensation that a person or relationship isn't healthy, even if you don't know why. A creep is someone who sets off your creep-o-meter because of something they say or do that seems inappropriate to the circumstances. It usually has something to do with violating boundaries and not being honest about ones motivations. Contrast with spooky, which is a person or relationship you don't understand but that isn't necessarily bad (it could go either way when you have more information).\nCreepiness is a vibe, not substantive evidence, and it is not admissible in court for very good reasons (namely, the difficult of distinguishing it from spookiness). Nonetheless, we have to acknowledge that valid information can be received on nonverbal channels, and we should not simply discard it because it isn't empirical. Courts can't rule on creepiness and other weird vibes, but you can. At the least, these vibes should prompt you to seek more information.\n\u2660 crisis mode \ufffd A condition of continuous operational overload in which only the most important problems are addressed. During crisis mode, you are focussed on putting out fires, slaying dragons and rescuing maidens in distress and don't have time for such trivial things as cleaning house and doing the laundry. As a result, the house goes to hell and the laundry piles up and never gets done.\n\u2660 crocodile tears \ufffd The loud public complaints of birth parents whenever anything unfortunate happens to their son or daughter while in foster care or juvenile detention. If the child stubs his toe, the parents wail about the cruelty of the state even if what they did to the child was far worse. Heaven forbid a child should die while in custody. That's when deadbeat dads and absentee moms emerge from the woodwork to weep to the press and initiate potentially lucrative lawsuits. If they gave as much attention to the child when he was still alive, then the kid might never have been in custody.\n\u2660 DFS \ufffd The Clark County Department of Family Services, the agency responsible for child protection and foster care in Las Vegas. Here is a Staff List for DFS (432 names). Here are some useful pages from the DFS website that may be hard to locate: Office Locations | Computer Services | History of Child Welfare in Nevada, by Thom Reilly | Information Page on Adoption and Foster Care\n\ufffd dinosaur \ufffd A county caseworker (DFS) inherited from the old state system (DCFS), especially an inept or indifferent one.\n\u2665 domestic violence \ufffd an overt expression of physical aggression between people who live together, have lived together in the past or who are related to each other. (The term is generally not used for violence directed at children, which is child abuse.)\nDomestic violence is defined by the intent of the action and not its force. If you throw a slice of bread at your spouse, it is domestic violence if the action is an expression of hostility, while accidentally dropping the bread in their direction is not a crime. In fact, the same applies to all food items and kitchenware: toast, sandwiches, muffins, pies, spoons, plates, coffee mugs.... For some reason, coffee mugs are a really popular item for domestic violence, perhaps because they are easy to grab and throw. It is still domestic violence even if the victim ducks and the object misses and shatters on the wall behind. Slapping, hitting, punching, shoving, biting (a surprisingly popular method), and any other form of bodily assault also fall into the legal category of domestic violence.\nAnd let's get enlightened here: It's not just men beating on women. The gentle sex does a fair amount of it as well; they just tend to not cause as much physical damage and are less likely to be reported.\nIntent can be difficult to define, since the perpetrator almost always believes that their actions are wholly justified by the behavior of the victim. If I throw a coffee mug at you, it is because of your insensitive words, your disrespectful attitude or your failure to do what I tell you to. You forced me to do it, and my violence is no worse than yours.\nThe law takes a slightly different view. Contrary to the belief of many, hurtful words do not constitute domestic violence. This is America: Within the privacy of your own home, you can verbally demean or psychologically abuse your own family members in any manner you choose. Only when the encounter turns physical is the law authorized to intervene.\nDomestic violence tends to be prevalent among the emotionally volatile, especially victims of Borderline Personality Disorder and related personality traits. It is a expression of paranoia and projection, which is the externalization of one's inner frustrations. I lash out at you because I feel bad about myself, and I assume that you are responsible. Even one misspoken word can seem like terrible violence to me, so I feel justified in doing violence to you.\nThe response of the legal system is limited. It can either issue a Temporary Protective Order to keep the parties apart, or it can prosecute the offender. Neither of these solutions are practical unless the victim is willing to terminate the relationship. Most are not. There can be practical reasons (such as economic dependence and shared children) but also some emotional ones. Victims often see their attackers as vulnerable human beings who \"can't help themselves\" and who just need more love. The fact that the attacker usually blames the victim for the attack further complicates things. There is never a graceful exit from an abusive relationship. These parties can't shake hands and walk away. It takes inner strength and external resources that many victims don't have.\n\u2665 engulfment \ufffd /en-'g&lf-m&nt/ n. The dark underside of love, where a person feels that their own identity is being lost in someone else.\nFalling in love may seem magical at first, until you realize that you're falling in love, and it isn't clear where the falling will stop. Sometimes it feels like you're drowning in love, gasping for air, trying to break free.\nThat's engulfment.\nThe scary thing about love, and about any kind of dependence or devotion, is that you might lose yourself in the \"Other.\" This is especially a problem with people who have a weak sense of their own identity. I want to fall in love because I am hoping that this person will save me, but as soon as I do I may feel overpowered... smothered. Help!\nIdentity is just about the most important thing to every human. Everyone wants to feel that they are significant, valuable and unique. Intimacy can threaten this. If you don't have a strong base of identity to start, then you are going to absorb the beliefs, preferences and worldview of the Other. Pretty soon you're wondering, \"But who am I?\"\nOnce you realize just how far you have fallen, panic can set in. Love turns to a kind of terror, and some very violent reactions can result. Fights ensue, usually over trivial issues. Everything about the Other begins to irritate you, and you start making plans to break free.\nThis sensation is by no means limited to romantic love. Child development can be seen as a struggle against engulfment. A child loves his parents but... he also finds their love oppressive. If the parent is a control freak with a weak identity of his own, than the reaction of the child is all the stronger: \"Leave me alone! I just want to be me!\"\nAll of this stuff is going on below the surface at Family Court. It often helps explain why love goes bad and ends in divorce. It also provides insight into why children act out and find themselves in Juvenile Court, often for destructive actions that make no rational sense.\nThe problem, in essence, is too much love. Oppressive love. Love that doesn't allow me to be me.\nThis doesn't necessarily imply that the Other itself is inherently oppressive, only that victim is not strong enough to oppose it. Even normal, healthy love can be engulfing sometimes.\nThe fear of engulfment is an invisible force in all relationships. In some cases, it puts the brakes on love and stops it from happening.\nYou may think that everyone needs a sensitive, attentive partner who is responsive to their needs and is always there for them. Every Cinderella wants to marry a prince, right? In fantasy, perhaps, but not in practice. The \"perfect\" partner can be extremely threatening to someone who, deep down, believes they aren't worthy of it. What these people may actually need is a dolt or bimbo just like them, someone who isn't particularly sensitive or attentive but who doesn't threaten their own identity.\nThese, in fact, are often the marriages made in Heaven. Relationships where the two parties are similar to each other in ego strength are the ones that might actually last. Relative equality limits the risk of engulfment.\nFor everyone, there is a romantic partner who is just right. Not too hot, not to cold, just the right degree of lukewarm.\nLinks: Google for \"engulfment\" [12/31/05]\n\ufffd existentialism \ufffd /ek-sis-'ten(t)-sh&-\"li-z&m/ n. A theory of philosophy which contends that \"what you see is what you get.\" Life has no meaning or purpose apart from existence itself. If we are going to bother to live at all (which is a personal choice), then we are going to face certain practical problems\ufffdhow to eat, how to avoid pain, how to relate to our fellow travelers, etc. To know how to live, you need only respond to those problems in as honorable and consistent a manner as possible.\nIf you are going to bother to care about anyone (which, again, is a personal choice), then you need to come up with some system for doing it. If we decide to improve society, then how do we go about it? Who should we help and why? What really matters to the well-being of others? You could pray to God for assistance, but that's not the existential way. The solutions, like the problems, are right in front of you.\nWe call an experience existential if it exposes and makes vulnerable the fragile underpinnings of our existence. It is existential when death or disaster sneak up on you in an unexpected way or when you suddenly discover, in a moment of insight, that the whole elaborate structure of your life is based on a lie. Examples....\nIt is existential when you are standing on the edge of the roof of a tall building looking down on the street below wondering if you should jump.\nIt is existential when you are dreaming that you have already jumped and are falling, falling when \ufffd BAM! \ufffd you wake up in a sweat.\nIt is existential when you are on the Titanic just after it strikes the iceberg. You know full well that the ship is sinking, and there is nothing you can do about it.\nIt is existential when you are tried before a jury of your peers, found guilty and sentenced to life in prison for a crime you didn't commit.\nIt is existential when you are tried before a jury of your peers, found guilty and sentenced to life in prison for a crime you did commit.\nIt is even more existential when you are sentenced to life in prison, but with a possibility of parole after 40 years.\nIt is existential when you are a good Mormon who completes his overseas mission, marries a nice Mormon girl, raises a family, tithes his 10%, becomes a respected Bishop in his church, and who then realizes, in an existential moment, that maybe Joseph Smith didn't receive the Book of Mormon directly from God written on golden tablets in Reformed Egyptian. Maybe he just made it up.\nIt is existential when you raise a daughter from birth for 5-1/2 years; you are her only \"Daddy,\" and you and she are very close, and then one day a caseworker comes and takes her away and you never see her again.\n\ufffd evil \ufffd /'E-v&l/ n. An internal deception that makes people do destructive things. Evil is choosing to accept a false view of reality because it serves ones private emotional needs. Destructive actions\ufffdfrom rudeness to genocide\ufffdthen flow from this internal delusion.\nQuite simply, evil is lying to yourself.\nIf you look up at the blue sky and tell yourself it is green because it is convenient to do so, that is evil.\nIt may seem absurd to think of evil as something so simple, but the jump from self-deception to genocide is not that great. Once you accept any hypocrisy in your internal world and start generating more lies to defend it, there is no telling what terrible act it may lead you to.\n\ufffd extrajournalistic \ufffd Any human activity or process that does not appear in the public news media, at least until long after it has happened. (See also extrajudicial.) The \"News\" as we know it records only a tiny sliver of human experience\ufffdbasically the few sensational events which can be used to sell advertizing. The rest goes unnoticed and unrecorded except by the participants. Most of the activities of the courts and the Family Services system are extrajournalistic, not so much because of formal barriers but for lack of commercial interest.\nDue to the advent of the internet, fewer and fewer human activities are extrajournalistic\ufffdfor better or worse. Anyone who has a family picnic or pierces their nipples can put their photos on the web. Eventually, anyone who is frustrated with a Family Court case will be there, too.\n\ufffd extrajudicial \ufffd Any human activity or process that takes place outside of the formal court system. Love, for example, is an extrajudicial process until it comes time for the divorce.\n\u2660 failure to maintain placement \ufffd (FTMP) Caseworker-speak for a runaway youth\ufffda common problem of foster care, Child Haven and juvenile delinquency camps. \"Ran away\" is too casual for official reports, so instead we say, \"The subject child failed to maintain the placement.\" Also sometimes known as \"AWOL\" (from military jargon: Absent Without Leave).\nKids don't just run away from bad placements where the staff or foster parents don't care; they run away from good ones, too. Conscientious foster parents can't understand it. \"I'm doing everything I can for the kid,\" they say. \"His situation is far better now than it was before, so why doesn't he want to be here?\"\n\u2660 Fast Track \ufffd A program that places infants in abuse/neglect cases immediately into homes that are ready to adopt them if the parents' rights are terminated.\n\ufffd field of responsibility \ufffd The parts of the world that you feel personally responsible for. For example, you feel highly responsible for the welfare of your spouse, your children and other members of your own family. You feel far less responsible for someone else's spouse, children or family in, say, Finland or Mesquite. Thus, we could say that the field is strong for your own family and weak for someone else's far away.\nYour field of responsibility is actually a continuum of responsibility, dictated to a large extent by practical concerns such as the availability of information and your ability to help. You probably would care about a family in Finland or Mesquite if you knew them, had visited them or had read an article about them, but when you don't even know they exist, it is hard to care. You don't feel bad when they feel bad, because you don't know about it.\nIf something unpleasant happens to a sentient being on a distant planet in a galaxy far, far away, you do not have to be concerned, because not only do you not know about it, you have absolutely no means of helping them even if you did. Thus, you can still sleep soundly at night despite the infinite suffering all over the universe.\nHere on Earth, your field of responsibility is not so clear. In some way or another, you have the ability to help any human on the planet, especially with modern communication and transportation, so in a sense you are responsible for everyone and everything on Earth, just not in the same proportion. Your field of responsibility can be thought of as a magnetic field that is very strong at the center but that becomes weaker the further away you go. For most of us, the field is very weak in Finland. (I don't mean to offend the Finnish here, but it's true.) The field is very strong in our own household and community, because we are more emotionally involved, have better information and have greater ability to help effectively.\nWhen we see images on TV from a famine in Africa, it brings it a lot closer to us and makes it stronger in our field. We may want to send money to the address on our screen, because now we feel greater responsibility and an ability to help. The field of responsibility is funny that way: You can feel responsible for things you see that are far away and not feel responsible for things you don't see, even if they are hidden in your own home.\nWhat if you saw EVERYTHING that went on in the world? What would your field of responsibility be then? Would you go mad from all the suffering you saw around you? No, you would come to accept it. You would still be limited by your resources and your practical ability to help. You would still have to use a system of triage to tell you what to do.\nYou would help your own family first, because you have greater control over the outcome of your actions and a greater sense that their problems are yours. You would help the starving millions in Africa only if you felt that your own family problems were under control and you thought you could help a lot of suffering people with relatively few resources. As you searched the globe for a charitable cause, you would want to choose the destination where you would get the greatest long-term benefit from the limited resources you have.\nThe endless quest to define your field of responsibility is called scope management. Whenever you have an ability to help someone in need, you have to ask yourself, \"Is this my responsibility?\" There are rarely any simple answers, but you have to come up with one. You have to weigh your ability to help, your ability to monitor the results, your emotional investment in the outcome and the drain on your resources that could be used to help others. Your field of responsibility is constantly being redefined, but firm preferences have to exist and you have to obey them; otherwise, you will spread your resources too thin, and your well-intentioned efforts may effect nothing in the end.\n\ufffd freedom \ufffd /'frE-d&m/ n. the ability to adapt to unexpected changes in yourself and your environment, both now and in the future.\nFor example, if you wake up in the morning and can decide, on the spur of the moment, that you want to go strolling in the park, you have more freedom than someone who wakes up to the alarm clock and has to be somewhere at a certain time or bad things will happen.\nEveryone claims to love freedom and will fight for it in theory, but most people don't really want it in their own lives and will make it go away as soon as they have it. They don't want the ability to change their mind.

This issue directly affects the Family Court, since gay marriages would inevitably lead to gay divorces, some of which could be just as nasty as the heterosexual kind. If nothing else, it will increase our caseload.\n\u2666 graffiti \ufffd /gr&-'fE-tE/ n. The architypal juvenile crime. It makes no sense in terms of objective gain, but it tells us a lot about why most crimes are committed and what adolescents are really seeking from the world.\nThe graffiti artist wants to make his mark on the world, just like Donald Trump wants to build big hotels with the name \"TRUMP\" at the top. Both are trying to say: \"You see, I am somebody.\"\nEvery child (Trump included) has a desperate desire to assert his identity in the world. Some kids like to excel at gymnastics or math league or video games. Those whose lives are particularly frustrating may not have such socially accepted outlets, so they must make their mark on the world in subversive ways. Overall, Graffiti is one of the least destructive ways that a child can act out against the world, and it must almost be considered a rite of passage in difficult neighborhoods.\nThe graffiti artist has been told all his life that he is worthless. The world, to him, is a monolithic block that does not respond to him and does not care if he exists. He can either accept this message, or he can fight back. With a can of spray paint, he gains control and becomes a influential force in the universe. He can't move a building, but he can customize it and make it \"his\".\nThe graffiti artist is motivated by the same inner drive as any other artist. He just happens to have chosen a canvas that is at odds with the wishes of society. He would not be doing this if he had other satisfying ways to assert his identity. Kids in gymnastics or math league don't do graffiti, but current public opinion would prefer to punish offenders rather than diverting them.\nLas Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman (the Donald Trump of local politics) suggested in November 2005 that graffiti offenders should have their thumbs cut off on television. This is one solution, although I believe it is the index finger, not the thumb, that is most essential to the spray painting. Goodman does not talk much about expanding programs for disadvantaged youth, which might decrease the motivation for graffiti, but that's not his job. (We all know, of course, that Oscar's first priority is to make an impression, as though Las Vegas was this big canvas that he can write \"OSCAR\" on.)\n(Sun article on graffiti.

Leader of Germany from 1933 to 1945. Responsible for a World War and the death of millions in Europe. Hitler wasn't necessarily a bad guy; he just made some bad philosophical choices. One wishes that someone could have intervened in this boy's life at an early age, thus greatly reducing his eventual costs to society.\n\ufffd hooked \ufffd The condition of having received an upside-down question mark (\ufffd) on our People Page.

The identity engine is attempting to seek one thing above all else: the preservation of ones own sense of self-esteem and uniqueness.\n\u2665 \ufffdI love you\ufffd \ufffd A commonly uttered loyalty oath betweens family members and romantic partners. To some, the incantation is seen to have magic powers. Repeating the oath frequently is supposed to repair the problems of a relationship, while not saying it often enough allegedly causes relationships to fail. Unfortunately, the phrase has no universally accepted meaning (unlike \"two quarts of SAE 10W40 motor oil\"). It can mean dramatically different things to different parties and can be totally misconstrued between speaker and listener. Understanding the intended meaning is key to understanding the health of the relationship, expecially in romantic entanglements. \"I love you\" has as many shadings are there are speakers, but the intentions fall into several general categories....\nI Love You, Type I. To some speakers, \"I love you,\" means, \"I need you.\" This is the kind of love expressed by young children and by adults who are still children emotionally. To them, \"I love you,\" means \"I have no idea who you are, but I am totally dependent on you, and I hope you will give me what I need.\" This is fine for children, but when spoken by adults, it's a bit creepy. In adulthood, this is a desperate and cloying love, as if there is a big gaping hole in the speaker's soul that the listener is expected to fill up. Inevitably, the listener can't fill it up, and when the speaker recognizes this, \"I love you,\" can rapidly turn to \"I hate you,\" followed by a messy divorce.\nI Love You, Type IA. \"I love you\" can also mean \"I worship you.\" The listener is perceived as a god or goddess, often for no other reason than the color of their eyes or the shape of their bodies. \"I love you,\" in this case means, \"I am hopelessly idealizing you based on my own fantasy of what I need.\" Since the key issue is the speaker's need, this is a variation of Type I and not a separate category of its own. Rich, handsome guys and good-looking chicks get a lot of Type IA compliments. Type IA impulses can lead to \"love at first sight\" and a pathological disregard for any evidence that might contradict the idealized image. When you start writing poetry about the color of your lover's eyes, this ought to be a warning sign. Get a prenup!\nI Love You, Type IB. \"I love you\" can mean \"I find you sexually attractive.\" In other words, \"Your physical appearance, behavior, voice and/or odor have activated my hormonal system and brainstem in favor of reproductive activities.\" Postcoitally, it can also mean, \"Wow, thanks!\" as if it were the other party and not ones own brain that induced this drug-like high. The \"I love you's\" tend to flow freely in the passion (i.e. temporary insanity) of such circumstances. The only question is how they will flow when the insanity abates.\nI Love You, Type II. \"I love you,\" can mean, \"I need to be needed by you.\" This is the way people talk to babies and pets. (\"I love you, poochie poo! Aren't you a sweetie? Yes, you are!\") It is not an entirely dysfunctional love. The speaker is seeking some personal satisfaction from attending to others, which is admirable. Babies need to be taken care of, and loving a pet is better than loving no one at all. It is not exactly a reciprocal relationship, however, and when you have one adult talking this way to another, again it can be creepy. Type II speakers are \"helpers\" and sometimes \"enablers.\" Get them together with a Type I speaker, and the latter is like a black hole sucking energy off a companion star. Sometimes the system explodes, and other times it reaches a stable stasis of \"I need you/I need to be needed by you\" that lasts \"'til death do you part.\"\nI Love You, Type III. A more mature form of \"I love you,\" is \"I care about you.\" It is the kind of love expressed by parents for their older children. It means that some part of my ego is tied up in your well-being. I want you to be safe, happy and successful, and I will fight for you if necessary, but I am also eager for you to move out of the house. I care about you, but I don't need you, and I don't need to be needed by you.\nI Love You, Type IV. This is an extremely rare form of \"I love you\" which is hardly ever spoken, even though the love itself is common. Most often, this \"I love you\" is verbalized as a mock insult, such as \"You're a moron!\" or \"I'm going to kill you!\" This is the love that exists between close siblings, who rarely express their feelings directly, in part because it really isn't necessary. You know that this person is there for you, and that he will also push back if you ask too much from him. \"I love you,\" is assumed and natural and is rarely a matter of contention.\nI Love You, Type V. A messy combination of all of the previous types, as commonly found in the real world.\n[Am I missing any other types?]\n\ufffd infinite need \ufffd The essential problem of all charitable efforts. In virtually any social crisis, from troubled families to Third World hunger, the needs are essentially infinite, while the resources available to address them are always inadequate to the task. The only workable approach to infinite need is a combination of triage and scope management.\n\u2665 joint custody \ufffd The practice in divorce proceedings of awarding custody of a child to both parents, usually so the child spends half the time with Mom and half the time with Dad, with both parents sharing equally in decisions about the child.\nIt sounds like a good idea\ufffdin a perfect world. Why should one parent get preference over another? The problem, unfortunately, is that divorce isn't pretty, and joint custody has a way of stretching out that unprettiness for decades, with the child stuck in the middle the whole time. What happens if the parents are supposed to share decisions but can't agree on anything? It's back to court you go!\nThis reporter's opinion is that joint custody is a good idea if the parties can work it out on their own. It is a bad idea if it has to be imposed by a court. I think that some judges use joint custody as an \"easy out\" to avoid making any real decisions about who is the better parent. In some cases, it is the equivalent of Solomon's solution of slicing the kid down the middle, so that he's always conflicted and there's a new battle to fight every day.\nJudge Hardcastle has written an article expressing similar misgivings (summary, citation). In early 2005, he and other Family Court judges successfully lobbied to defeat a bill that would have made joint custody the preferred solution in Nevada (article). [12/25/05]\n\ufffd judge \ufffd /'j&j/ n. The guy in the big chair and the black robe who makes decisions and tells you what the law means.\nA judge is empowered and constrained by law, which is a bunch of instructions written down in books. A judge is not allowed to do anything\ufffdlike send a kid to Juvvie or grant visitation rights to grandparents\ufffdunless the law explicitly says he can. The law, in turn, is created by the Legislature, which is composed of ordinary citizens who occasionally have their heads up their asses.\nThere are good judges and bad judges, but all judges get blamed for things that aren't their fault. When a judge has to rule on an assinine provision of the law, he can bitch and moan all he wants, but it's still the law, and he has to obey it.\nA judge also has to make people unhappy. In fact, approximately half of the people who come before a judge will go away begrudged. They may think he is out to get them and is part of a nefarious black-robed conspiracy to control the world\ufffdwhich isn't entirely true. (I know for a fact that he doesn't always wear the robe.)\nIn Nevada, most judges are directly elected by the people, which is just about the stupidest idea short of the popular election of presidents. Being a good judge is a highly technical and subtle skill, akin to brain surgery. Imagine if we chose our brain surgeons by popular election. Would you feel comfortable having your head cut open by someone whose skills were verified only by the whims of thousands of your dimwitted friends and neighbors who don't have a clue about the candidates and know nothing about brain surgery?\nThat's called \"democracy.\" Pretty scary, eh?\nOf course, if you don't like a judge's ruling, you can always appeal it. In Nevada, decisions of Family Court are appealed directly to the state Supreme Court. This is a more refined and ethereal environment than the rabble of District Court. Unfortunately, the justices here are also chosen by popular election.\nIt isn't clear that there is a better way. The alternative is the political appointment of judges, which has its own set of problems.\nThe idea of elected judges may be more palatable if you think of it as a random lottery. Anyone with a strong-sounding name (Hardcastle, Steel, etc.) can become a judge, but he or she does have to be a lawyer and (with a new law in 2005) must have a certain number of years in practice. It also helps to be female, a genetic condition that has held great sway with the voters in recent years. (After all, this is Family Court, and who knows more about families, an unrecognized male name or an unrecognized female name?) Every once in a while, due to the random linguistic fickleness of the voters, incompetent judges get elected and good ones get thrown out, but at least the system stays dynamic and power doesn't become too entrenched. [12/28/05]\n\u2665 judicial discretion \ufffd A term that ought to strike terror into the heart of any divorce litigant. Judicial discretion is the power of a judge to decide a certain issue based on his own philosophy and best judgment. For example, judges in all states have broad discretion in deciding the custody of children following divorce, based on what they think is best for a child. What this means in practice is that different judges can issue vastly different rulings on virtually identical cases, and there is usually nothing the parties can do about it once the decision is made.\nAll states require that divorce judges consider \"the best interests of the child\" when choosing which parent he should live with, but it is up to the judge to decide what that phrase means. Different judges have different philosophies and, frankly, different biases and competence levels, which means that custody is essentially a personal choice by the judge. Because you and your ex-love couldn't decide the question yourselves, you have invited this stranger into your home to do it for you.\nIf this doesn't terrify you, it should.\nThere is no alternative to judicial discretion in this situation. Somebody has to make a decision, and every case is so complicated that no written law can reasonably help. There may be laws that try to force litigants to negotiate with each other or that require a judge to obtain certain information before acting, but no law or simple rule can decide who is the better parent. Furthermore, you can't allow most custody decisions to be reconsidered on appeal, because if this were possible then every custody decision would be appealed.\nYou have to live with the judge's decision even if he or she is a jerk, shows obvious preferences, is inexperienced or doesn't have adequate understanding of your case. The judge has to maintain the appearance of impartiality and cannot, for example, accept bribes to go a certain way, but this is still a very human, personality-driven process.\nDivorce attorneys know this. They know that Judge \"X\" shows a strong preference for awarding joint custody, while Judge \"Y\" tends to prefer the female half. The assignment of cases to judges is done on an essentially random basis, based on openings on the docket, so you never know who you will get. It's a roll of the dice, but in the great Nevada tradition, if you don't like the outcome you can choose to roll again. (Double or nothing?) The mechanism is called a peremptory challenge*. Each litigant has one opportunity to fire their judge, without cause or explanation, before the proceedings begin. This service costs $300 and is a big money maker for the state.\nIt is all a big chess game, and it's the kind of stuff that you would be clueless about if you tried to represent yourself or if you chose an attorney who isn't familiar with Family Court. If you don't control the peremptory challenge, then you may become a victim of it. Certain judges are challenged frequently, so they will have more docket openings, so you have a greater probability of being assigned to one of these judges yourself.\nWhat right does a judge have to be biased in favor of one custody solution over another? Every right in the world. A judge in Nevada derives their power from you, the voter. You elected them knowing full well what they stood for.\nOh, you're telling me you didn't know? Are you saying that you voted for President, then you got down to the bottom of the ballot to Family Court Judge, and went, \"Aggggh! Who are these people?\" Not realizing that thousands of lives were at stake, did you blindly check off some name because it sounded right?\nNow, are you telling me that you had to get a divorce, and things didn't turn out as you hoped they would?\nI guess you got what you deserved then, didn't you?\n\ufffd justice \ufffd The \"settling of accounts\" for past misdeeds. Justice and our justice system are based on the premise that a grievance of the past can be undone by an opposite action in the present\ufffdwhich is largely an illusion.\nYou should not expect much justice from Family Court, which is more concerned with repair and rehabilitation. Family Court tries to give distressed people a way to move on with their lives, a goal that is often incompatible with justice. Read More\n\u2666 Juvenile Customer Service Representative (JVCSR) \ufffd n. My term for a Juvenile Public Defender, the court-appointed attorney assigned to most defendants in Juvenile Court. Their job is to explain the court process to their client, ask them the facts of the case and how they want to plead, then walk them through the hearings, trial and sentencing (and the yelling-at by the judge). In short, their goal is to interact with the customers and make their court experience more comfortable.\nHere in Juvenile Delinquency, customer service is our Number One priority (although customer satisfaction may still be lagging).\nIn Family Court (and maybe the whole justice system), there may be no other workers who are as passionate and uncynical as the JVCSR's. Unlike adult criminal court, which is bent on retribution, there is a true sense in Juvenile Court that the system is going to try to reform the defendant and address his problems and not merely punish him. The JVCSR's are at the forefront of that process. Regardless of the child's guilt, they fight for a plan that they hope will best serve their client in the long run.\nTheir idealism is untarnished by actually having to deal with the kid outside of court. Their interaction with him is usually limited to the waiting room before and after a hearing. They only fight, in a somewhat abstract way, for his innocence and his future plan if convicted. (The dirty work of enforcing the plan is left to Juvenile Probation Officers and corrections personnel, who may actually get to know the kid and his problems.)\nPart of the job of the JVCSR is to deal with the parents of the defendant, who are usually far more difficult than the kid himself. The parents are often outraged that their precious progeny was arrested and may propose all sorts of bizarre legal theories to get their child off the hook. After listening to the parents, you often understand why the kid is acting out.\nThe experienced JVCSR will resist the temptation to tell the parents where to go, but will focus instead on the kid and what he wants. When that interaction has been successfully completed, then it's the parents' turn again. They go \"Yap, yap, yap!\".... until the JVCSR politely excuses themselves and says they have to go back into the courtroom for another case. (Often there is nothing in the courtroom that concerns them, but it is a convenient sanctuary.)\n\ufffd lawyer, how to choose a \ufffd Finding a good lawyer is a vexing problem for anyone who is new to the legal system. If you need one, then you are probably in distress, and it is hard to think clearly in times like this. You know that there are good lawyers and bad ones, those who charge modest fees and those who charge too much, those who advertize on TV and those who live in little cubbyhole offices on 7th Street. What clue do you have about finding the right one for you?\nIt's the same problem faced by thousands of visitors to Las Vegas every day: You want a \"Good Time\" and maybe you think you need a prostitute to accomplish this, but how do you find a good one? You could look in the phonebook under \"Entertainers - Adult\" or pick up an escort brochure on the Strip, but how do you know that what you get will match the picture? Furthermore, the ads never tell you how much it will cost to do everything you want. Read More\nThe Heavy Hitta\nlawyers, the problem with \ufffd Contrary to popular opinion, not all lawyers are sleazeballs. I mean, the whole concept of \"balls\" is too simplistic. Some of them are more like squares or triangles. The point is, every lawyer is different, and it isn't fair to lump them all into a single category.\nThe only thing all lawyers have in common is they went to law school and passed the state bar exam. This assures that they have certain basic technical skills, like writing briefs and following a chain of legal logic. It does not guarantee that they have the skills and empathy to deal with troubled people, which is perhaps half the job of lawyering, especially here in the Family Services Center.\nIt is rare to find a lawyer with any training in psychology, which ought to be a critical field when dealing with children and families. The \"people skills\" of lawyers run the same gamut that they do in the general population. Some lawyers \"get it,\" and some don't and never will.\nWe have a special term which is reserved for this profession: shyster. This is someone who may be clever at the law but who lacks any moral scruples. This is a serious occupational hazard among lawyers. The law is society's codification of morality\ufffdgenerally a very crude and primitive one. (\"If you hurt someone, we will hurt you.\") Some lawyers think they can get into Heaven simply by obeying the law. If there is a blindness in a statute, then it is the legislature's fault, not theirs, and they feel obligated to exploit it.\nThe people who pass through law school have gained certain technical skills which are similar to mathematics. Not all mathematicians are skilled at life, however: Some of them are geeks; some are autistic, and some couldn't survive for 10 minutes outside the halls of M.I.T. Lawyerdom has its own brand of autistics, perhaps brilliant at law but clueless to the morality that is supposed to underlie it. In Family Court, these lawyers can cause enormous damage, because they fail to see the human needs that are right in front of them. A few minutes of sensitivity where the lawyer asks, \"What is really going on here?\" can avoid years of litigation, but of course litigation is much more profitable.\nAn outbreak of love in\nlove \ufffd /'l&v/ n. An emotional attachment between human beings. Love is real, but the term itself is amorphous and difficult to define. I am not yet ready to define it here. However, I can offer these observations, which may relate to the Family Services Center...\nContrary to popular belief (and popular music), love is not all you need. Love alone can not solve the problems of the world or the problems of relationships. You also have to use your brain. Without a firm intellectual basis, \"I love you so much\" can turn in an instant into, \"I hate you so bad.\"\nRomantic love involves a fair amount of delusion. (Really?) You want so much for this person to give your life meaning that you will overlook even the most glaring negative evidence. You will seize upon any detail as positive evidence of your magical affiliation. (\"You like blue? So do I. This is so amazing!\") Most romantic delusions eventually collapse, and when they do, we may find ourselves in divorce court.\nThe unreality of the initial delusion is directly related to the eventual nastiness of the divorce.\nYou can't talk seriously about love \ufffd any kind of love \ufffd without talking about its evil twin, which travels with love wherever it goes. Whenever you love someone, you are also secretly afraid of being absorbed by them and losing your own identity. For those whose identities are weak, the fear of engulfment can provoke some very un-love-like reactions, like arguments and domestic violence. \"You only hurt the ones you love,\" because they are the ones to whom you are most vulnerable.\nA child loves his parents but also has a need to rebel against them, especially when they intrude into his own identity. You find a lot of this played out in Juvenile Delinquency court. In a hearing, you see both the child and his parents, and over the course of the proceedings, you may come to realize that this isn't about grafitti or breaking some windows; it's about the love between parent and child and how it isn't working.\nQUERY: I hope a reader can answer this... In the movie Prizzi's Honor, Jack Nicholson's character falls in love with Kathleen Turner but later has to kill her. Somewhere in the movie, he talks about love being something that happens to the \"sense of smell.\" What is that quote?\n\u2665 the magic baby pill \ufffd A common delusion of couples \ufffd acknowledged or unacknowledged \ufffd which contends that problems of their relationship can be repaired by having a baby. It happens when a man and a woman sit across from each other at the breakfast table and find they have nothing in common.\n\"What do we do now?\" says one to the other.\n\"I know, we'll have a baby!\"\n\"Yeah, that must be it! We'll have a baby!\"\nThen they have a baby; their family is complete, and they all live happily ever after.\nGuess what?... NOT!\n\ufffd the Matrix \ufffd The virtual world of superficial pursuits and meaningless possessions that we use as a smokescreen to obscure the true nature of the world. (See also cocoon.) We think the Matrix is real, but it isn't. It is a delusion generated in our minds which prevents us from experiencing life directly.\nIn the movie The Matrix, we learn that life as we know it is a virtual reality projection. Our real bodies are stored in vats in a giant warehouse somewhere, while everything we think is real is generated by a computer program and fed directly into our nervous system. A few people have learned to break out of the Matrix and see life as it really is, which is a lot darker and more desperate than the Matrix leads us to believe.\n\u2666 Nevada Youth Training Facility \ufffd A medium(?)-security youth detention facility located in Elko in Northern Nevada. Official website | DCFS info.\nNorman Rockwell \ufffd An idealized view of American family life (popular among conservative Republicans) that cannot possibly exist in the real world. In every family, there's a stay-at-home mom and a hard-working dad and a doting grandmother who you go over the river and through the woods to see. They all live in a small, proud American community with solid Rupublican values, where there is no teen pregnancy, drug abuse or significant crime that Sheriff Andy can't handle. Abortion isn't even an issue in Norman Rockwell. Here, every child is loved and cared for, and guess what the whole thing is supported by? That's right, Free Enterprise!\nMost real families are more like The Osbournes, but without the money or the one shrewd parent to hold it all together.\n\u2666 paradoxical attraction \ufffd n. The tendency of us all to be drawn to objects and actions that we are initially repulsed by or would have no interest in were they not forbidden. Contrast with rational self-interest.\nAs you are reading this, I request that you please not touch your nose. You have no reason at all to touch it, so please don't.\nBut now that I have mentioned it, doesn't it itch just a little? Try as you may, now that I have requested that you not touch your nose, you're going to do it. It's just a matter of time.\nThat's the problem with the forbidden, and it is something that all adolescents struggle with. Saying they shouldn't do something is almost an invitation to do it. It has something to do with why they engage in the most outrageous acts and fashions, like stealing the family car, going \"Goth\" or hanging out with exactly the boys Mom and Dad don't approve of.\nThe forbidden has an enormous appeal, because it seems like an easy way to achieve identity. Whatever your parents stood for, you can support the opposite. You don't realize at the time that by rebelling against your environment, you are still letting it control you. If they say \"Republican\" and you say \"Democrat,\" this isn't the same as deciding the issue for yourself.\nParadox is an important element in human behavior, and it helps explains why laws and rules often don't work. By forbidding something, you are in a way encouraging it. One wonders, for example, how many sexual perversions and acts of vandalism are generated precisely because of their illicit nature. If the activity is legalized or normalized, much of its attraction goes away. Perversions and delinquencies can actually be molded and defined by the laws and strictures intended to control them.\nThere can be a lot of reasons for paradoxical attraction. Forbidding something can simply place it in consciousness where it didn't exist previously. Engaging in the forbidden also gives people an outlet for frustrations that they wouldn't be able to express otherwise. It helps them define themselves by rebelling against something. It makes them feel unique and powerful.\nMany an arachnid or reptile specialist can trace his roots to a deathly fear of spiders or snakes in childhood. Many a swastika has been painted on a synagogue simply because it is considered such a heinous act\ufffdwith anti-semitism almost being an afterthought. Sometimes it is a Jewish activist who is caught painting the swastika, because real neonazis aren't giving him enough to fight against.\nThere is a lot of bizarre hidden paradox in people and a lot of strange secret things going on in brains and bedrooms everywhere. A nasty high-profile divorce proceeding (which we haven't seen lately in Las Vegas) would be an excellent opportunity to review those perversions.\n(Not that I have any interest in that.)\n\ufffd paranoia \ufffd The primary mechanism of human evil. Paranoia is the delusional perception of exaggerated threat or attention. It causes cocaine users to see spiders crawling under their skin and encourages certain conspiracy researchers to wear tinfoil beanies to protect them from CIA mind rays. Most paranoia, however, is more mundane and subtle and not so easily disproved. Most conspiracy theories don't involve spiders or mind rays but are expressed as personal convictions that at least sound plausible. You may find a wee bit of it lurking around the Family Services Center.\nParanoia makes good people do bad things. It can be responsible for anything from everyday rudeness to attempted extermination of the Jews. If you believe that someone is \"out to get you,\" then any response to that threat seems reasonable and justified. Paranoid people are capable of any evil act because they perceive a corresponding threat of similar magnitude. In their eyes, they are merely trying to defend themselves.\nAs unpleasant as it may seem, paranoia serves a purpose in the victim. At least temporarily, it protects them them from inner self-doubt and damage to their ego. Failing a test at school may hurt your self-esteem, but you wouldn't have to feel so bad if the teacher deliberately made you fail, perhaps by colluding with others to stack the cards against you. Paranoid beliefs provide convenient escape from any unpleasant news that you would rather not receive about yourself. Unfortunately, the beliefs then need to be supported and explained, and this can lead to an ever-widening perceived conspiracy\ufffdinvolving, in this case, not just teachers, but principals, school boards and the Council on Foreign Relations\nParanoia helps us explain most of the seemingly inexplicable and irrational human behavior that we see almost every day, especially in the court system. Whenever someone engages in an obviously self-destructive act, behind it is usually the perception of an exagerated threat or grandiose entitlement. \"I beat him up because he called me gay,\" says the barroom brawler heading off to jail, as if the insult was a form of violence itself, equalling the response.\nParanoids do have enemies, but mostly they are created by their own preemptive attacks. If you believe that someone hates you, then you will respond to them in kind, and this in turn creates the very real hatred that you feared. Paranoia is self-reinforcing, and once it reaches critical mass, it often can't be stopped. Paranoia can wreck families, sabotage careers, and wipe out the trust of others, all of which must then be knitted into the Great Conspiracy to free the paranoid from blame. The end result is an impoverished and restricted life, if not in jail then in a prison of ones own creation.\n\u2663 parental preference (or parental presumption) \ufffd The legal principle that a child's parents are the best people to raise him. In Nevada law, the parental preference is said to be very strong.\nIn other words, if you contributed the sperm or womb for the child, then the law assumes that you are the most qualified to raise him. To put it another way: If you make 'em, you own 'em, and the State can't take 'em away without substantial grounds \ufffd any more than they can seize your property or deprive you of liberty. It's a loony theory, because the ability to have sex is no indication of parenting ability, but it's the only doctrine possible in the real world. Otherwise, you would get into the nightmare of the government deciding the suitability of every parent. (Deciding custody during divorce is messy enough. There would be chaos in the legal system if you said that anyone could lay claim to a kid.) The parental preference is stupid, destructive and unjust, but we have to live with it.\n\u2665 PBFH \ufffd \"Psycho Bitch From Hell.\" A label often applied to the female half of a divorce or custody dispute by the opposing party. The label may or may not be justified, depending on the female, but the fact that the term is applied at all suggests a certain active aggressiveness. [12/20/05]\n\ufffd personality \ufffd An individual's habitual method of interacting with the world. Each of us has our own unique \"operating style\" which begins to show itself in infancy and becomes pretty much fixed by the mid-20s. Our personality encapsulates our ingrained assumptions about the world, based mostly on our subjective experience as children. [More to come]\n\ufffd the Pigeon Paradox \ufffd A dilemma that illustrates some of the key problems of charity. In a city park, there may be a lot of hungry pigeons, some of whom are going to die of starvation. You may decide to help these pigeons by feeding them. They crowd around you and give you the immediate emotional satisfaction of \"helping\". Unfortunately, by feeding them indiscriminantly you may actually be creating more pigeon suffering in the long run.\nFeeding the pigeons can have several negative effects:\nMore pigeons survive and have more offspring. The population eventually increases to outstrip whatever food you can supply. In the end, you still have the same proportion of starving pigeons, but the total number of them is greater than before you fed them. (Adaptation.)\nBecause you are providing them with an easy food source, the pigeons are discouraged from pursuing more more difficult solutions that may be more sustainable in the long run. (Corrupted motivation.)\nThe pigeons start depending on you. If you ever stop feeding them they will be a lot more vulnerable than they were before, and many more of them will starve. (Dependence.)\nBecause they don't understand where the food is coming from, the pigeons will start seeing you as a god, and they may expect a lot more of you than you can reasonably provide. (Deification.)\nWhen you feed the pigeons, they are going to create a scene and crap all over the place. (Noise.)\nThis is not to say that we shouldn't care about the pigeons or that we shouldn't feed them under extraordinary circumstances, like a natural disaster. It is just that feeding them, per se, is not the solution to their problems. It would be the same if we decided to solve the problems of human poverty by giving all the poor people in the country $1000 each: It would buy a lot of big screen TVs but probably wouldn't improve much in the end.\nThe problems of both pigeons and people are not usually solved by a mere redistribution of resources. First of all, most such problems are not solveable at all, at least within your own limited capacity. For most of us, pigeon starvation and worldwide poverty are beyond our ability to repair. However, once we find a domain of charity in which we feel comfortable, then the system of helping is at least as important as the raw resources.\nChildren are different from pigeons. Caring for a child does not result in a permanent dependency, since you know they are going to grow up eventually, but it can create multi-year one. When you step into a child's life it can sometimes be hard to step out, unless you establish clear boundaries to protect both you and the child.\nWhenever you help anyone, you have to be aware of the dynamic you are creating. Alleviated pain right now is not the most important thing. What really counts is helping that person create a stable and sustainable future that will continue to function even after you step out of the picture. [12/26/05]\n\ufffd rational self-interest \ufffd A theory of human motivation which says that people will do what is in their own best long-term interests. This theory forms the basis for our legal system, which explains in part why the system works so poorly. People frequently do not act in their own best interests, even when the potential punishments are huge.\nFor example, if there has been an epidemic of convenience store robberies in the city, the legislature might respond by increasing the prison term for such robberies from 5 years to 20 years. The theory of rational self-interest predicts that this will decrease the number of robberies as potential criminals weigh the greater cost of punishment against the possible rewards ($50 from the till). But what difference does it make in the actual crime statistics? Probably none. Anyone who would rob a convenience store probably isn't thinking straight anyway, and whether the punishment is six months or sixty years makes no difference to their actions. Whatever may motivate them, it is not rational self-interest.\n\ufffd reality \ufffd /rE-'a-l&-tE/ n. A speculative and unproven theory that the world outside ourselves actually exists, as opposed to being generated in our minds or by some advanced computer program. In our modern culture of virtual reality video games and continuous audio-visual entertainment, reality is an increasingly tenuous concept. I boldly contend, however, that reality is in fact real and can provide you with some of the most rewarding interactive experiences available.\nThe main problem with reality is that it hurts. If you make a mistake and get zapped for it, you know you've been hit. Sometimes, you get zapped even without making a mistake. Sometimes, reality gives you a continuous zapping for no other reason than it is reality and can do whatever the hell it wants.\nThe main advantage of reality is that it is persistent. If you are playing a video game and lose your memory card, you're screwed: You lose all of your experience and have to start over. Reality, on the other hand, has perfect memory and a never forgets anything you say or do. And I mean never forgets, for better or worse.\nOnce you decide to play reality, there are a lot of rules you have to learn. If you hit your real head on a real brick wall, it's going to hurt. I don't mean just losing points; it's going to hurt. Lots of things hurt, and if you get playing for a while, you learn how to avoid those things by planning for them in advance. You do this by learning more rules, based on some fairly esoteric philosophical concepts. You might choose to \"fasten your seat belt\" while riding in a \"car,\" only because you might be hurt if you don't. To get really good at reality, you have to keep developing new theories about it and about what causes pain. You continously compare your theories to what actually happens and adjust your play accordingly.\nReality is complicated. It is easy to get attached to the characters you encounter, and pretty soon you start feeling the pain of those characters even if it isn't really yours. This is a big problem with reality: There is too much pain in it, way more than you can feel or deal with. This is one reason why people playing reality often turn to virtual reality for escape. Virtual reality is about seeking your own gratification and doesn't involve any significant pain. Real reality, on the other hand, is all about pain and how to deal with it honorably.\nIf you accept the reality of reality, then you have to accept that the suffering of others is also real. If someone else is hurting, this is not something you can brush off as imaginary or insignificant. It is as real and important as your own suffering\ufffdand you know what that is like. You don't want to hurt other people; you lose points for that. You want to navigate the game so you actually decrease the pain of the world, which is no easy task.\nMost people who play reality do a half-ass job of it. They play what I call \"selective reality.\" They accept some of reality but fill in the rest with wishful thinking. Their theories tend to run wild, based on what they want reality to be. They think their theories are so perfect that they don't need to compare them to what actually happens and what actually works. As a result, they make many mistakes and unnecessarily hurt themselves and others.\nReality is big. Really big. I mean like 10 gazillion gigabytes. You can't expect to hold it all in your little brain. No matter how smart you are, unexpected things are going to happen, and you can either fight them because they don't fit your theory or accept them and go with the flow.\nReality can be a bitch sometimes, but once you get to know it and understand its ways, it's the richest game in town.\n\ufffd reality, metaphysical aspects of \ufffd Whenever people start facing reality straight on, they say, \"God, this is terrible!\" There is all this suffering in the world and no real solutions. The \"God\" in this case is metaphorical, because it isn't clear there is one. Reality is just this big mess of things happening without much rhyme or reason to it.\nIt is useful, however, to think that reality has a plan, even if it doesn't, and that there is a God looking after you, even if there isn't. To do your best in the game of reality, God and his Plan should form an integral part of your life. This is true even if you don't believe in God and would never set foot in a church.\nHere's what we know about God, if He exists: He's big \ufffd as big as all reality. (10 gazillion gigabytes.) He sees everything, way more than you can see, and He's always testing you, pushing you, trying to turn you into the best player you can be.\nYou've got this wee little brain and can't possibly see as much as He does. Thus, you've got to put some faith in the process. God's Plan is bigger than you can conceive right now, but when things happen to you and you look back on them later, you'll realize, yup, that was the Plan.\nRight now, you're kind of in the dark. You don't know the whole Plan. You have to keep looking for clues. God is always leaving them, because He's the kind of Guy who wants you to get ahead in the game but who isn't going to make it easy for you.\nThe clues are happening all the time. Maybe you get cancer or your dog dies or the mail is late on Wednesday. Everything is a clue, and you've got to be thinking about the deeper meaning of it. Why is the mail late? What is God trying to teach you?\nIt is easy to think you've got the Plan all worked out. Wrong! Whenever you look back on those times when you thought you had it all worked out, you realize that you were deluded. You didn't have it all worked out. Sometimes it is best to go through the game in a daze, never being quite sure if you are doing the right thing, because the fact is, that's the way things are. It's just you and your dim little brain trying to figure out God's fantastic reality.\nHave some humility, man!\n\u2665 sex \ufffd /'seks/ n. A bunch of biological silliness concerning reproduction that humans nonetheless seem to take very, very seriously.\nSex, at its base, is a method of assuring species diversity by merging the genetic material of two differing body types: the female, who bears the offspring, and the male, who is often regarded as unnecessary and in some species is actually eaten immediately after mating.\nIn its human expressions, sex can get way complicated. It can involve a lot of posturing on both sides, much Machiavellian politics, many hurt feelings and some occasional grisly deaths. It is also a major economic force in selling stuff to people, mostly adornments and consumer products that they never really needed.\nSexual attraction depends on a few shallow attributes. Take a Mr. Potato Head, stick a couple of plastic boobs on him, and suddenly all the other Potato Heads are gathering around vying for a piece of the action. (\"Hey, baby, wanna make french fries?\") Now, take the same Potato Head, lose the boobs, buff him up a bit, put him in a little toy Porsche, make him sound witty and urbane, and now all the Barbies are homing in on the guy, twitching their little tushes.\nInsanity. Pure insanity.\nThe underlying mechanisms are no mystery. Both parties are driven to produce superior offspring. Bountiful breasts, prominently displayed, tell us that she's got the fat reserves to produce, while Potato Head's useless sports car conveys the impression that he's got the social status to provide. It's all about advertizing\ufffdjust like Las Vegas, where people put up big neon signs even when there isn't much behind them.\nThe politics can get complicated. He wants to spread his love all around and dreams of hanging out with Heff in a whole mansion full of Barbies. She's a bit more cagey. Being that she has to make a huge investment in each reproduction, she wants a Potato Head who's going to stick around and help. Both of them crave far more sex than is necessary, in part because it draws them together during the long process of child rearing. Think of it as a mutual exchange of drugs.\nThen there's the bonding process. Oh, brother, what a mess! They fall in love\ufffdor at least their bodies do. Whether their brains can follow is another matter. A Potato Head with a Porsche is still a Potato Head, while Barbie's head (if you take it off and look inside) is full of air. Somehow, they find things in common. That's the magic of love!\nWhenever you talk to people about sex, you got to be careful. You should resist the temptation to laugh uproariously, because, as I say, people can take sex very, very seriously. We ought to respect the local culture here. Sex gives people an excuse for intimacy, which is better than none at all. It gives them a chance to let down their guard and worry about someone else for a change.\nTrouble is, when people let down their defenses, all sorts of icky things can come to the surface. Turns out what you find inside isn't always the same as the sign out front. Pretty soon the boobs fall off, the Porsche gets sold, the sex becomes routine, and all you got left is a couple of Potato Heads staring at each other. Now what do you do?\nSexual attraction alone won't sustain a relationship for long, only through the honeymoon. After that, things can get dicey. Yup, there can be quite a bit of messiness down the road, and that's why we have... Family Court!\n\ufffd scope management \ufffd The art and science of defining your field of responsibility and adapting your actions to it. Scope management is an ongoing philosophical endeavor where you try to decide what your overall policy should be, in contrast with triage, where you are trying to decide what to do in your current situation.\nOn the battlefield, triage is deciding which wounded soldiers to save and which to let die. Scope management is when you try to decide whether you should be involved in this war at all.\nA typical scope management question might be: \"Should I be helping starving children in Ethiopia, or should I join the PTA?\" Your answer is a personal one and depends on your resources, your strengths, your vulnerabilities, your access to information, your current situation and your personality. One thing is certain: You can't be responsible for healing every ill in the world. You have to choose your battles wisely. Scope management is the process of defining what kind of battles you will fight and what kind you will sit out.\n\u2663 sperm donor \ufffd The male entity who contributed the genetic material for a child but who has taken no significant responsibility for raising him.\n\u2666 spoiled rotten \ufffd A pernicious and devastating form of child abuse that happens to be legal in all 50 states. Instead of beating or starving the child, the parents give in to his every whim. They treat him as a little prince or princess who is coddled and lavished with gifts without doing anything to deserve it. The child internalizes this attitude and comes to expect it from the rest of the world. With high correlation, this results in an adult illness known as Narcissistic Personality Disorder, where a person expects to be treated as royalty regardless of what he does.\n\"Spoiling a kid rotten\" is seen as a god-given parental right and almost never by itself results in abuse charges. However, it does supply a significant portion of the clientele for the juvenile delinquency system. It may help explain the Summerlin Syndrome of badly behaving young people.\nLinks: Google for \"Narcissistic Personality Disorder\". Case study: Kid Vegas.\n\ufffd spooky \ufffd /'sp\ufffd-kE/ adj. A person or relationship that you don't currently understand. Something about the spook suggests that there is more going on below the surface than can be readily explained. In contrast with creepy, which has strong negative connotations, spooky isn't necessarily bad. Spooky is interesting, especially if you love a mystery.\nESP is spooky. UFO reports are spooky until we explain them. (Area 51 used to be spooky, but I hope we took care of that.) There are a couple of characters hanging out at Family Court who I consider spooky, but that's just me. I am sure they don't think this; they're just being themselves.\nUnlike creepy, spooky is a statement of your own knowledge and doesn't necessarily reflect on the subject themselves. Complex people and subtle relationships tend to seem spooky to us simply because we don't understand them right now. It is possible that in the future, we will have enough information to de-spook them, at which time the underlying motivations will become obvious to us.\nPeople with low intellectual self-confidence tend to be freaked out by spookiness. They automatically assume it is creepiness. They want everything to be neatly explained and hermetically packaged, and any ambiguity must be a sign of evil. The spook becomes a sort of Rorschach Test: People react to them according to the ghosts in their own head. Thus, spooks throughout history have been subject to persecution for their ambiguity, which is sometimes equated with witchcraft, subversiveness or Communism.\nGet used to it. Spooks and spookiness make life worth living. You don't want to live in a plastic package, do you? If things get complicated and ambiguous, so be it.\n\u2660 staff \ufffd /'staf/ v. To discuss a case or issue with ones colleagues at a meeting, where a communal decision is then reached. Used expecially at DFS when deciding how to handle difficult cases. \"Staffing a problem\" by discussing it at a meeting is a method of distributing responsibility for a decision among multiple parties. Example: \"We had to kill him, but we staffed it first.\"\n\u2663 stepping up to the plate \ufffd A metaphor commonly used by judges when instructing a parent or juvenile defendent to take responsibility for their own problems, or when commending them after they do. For example: \"We are giving you all the support we can, but if you want to get your kids back, you have to step up to the plate and do what you need to.\" The metaphor comes from baseball and refers to a batter who is ready to make an honest attempt to hit the ball. Whether or not he actually hits it is not as important as the effort. (\"Plate,\" in this case, does not refer to a plate of food, where someone is going to \"step up to the plate\" to be fed. That would be entirely the wrong metaphor.) Someone who steps up to the plate and keeps swinging until he hits the ball is a trooper.\n\ufffd stupid \ufffd /'st\ufffd-p&d/ adj. The pejorative \"S-word\" that we should never use when referring to any client of Family Services. Instead, the client \"has issues.\" It is also a word that we should never use to describe the gamblers who support this town. They are \"guests\".\nStupid is a lot more complicated and interesting that it seems. It isn't just a matter of intellectual capacity. Even highly intelligent people can be stupid sometimes, and there ain't none of us who hasn't fallen prey to it on occasion. Stupid is a matter of deluding yourself and igoring your own rules and then suffering the inevitable consequences.\nStupid isn't something trivial or something to be ignored. Stupid is all around us, and we need to understand it. Stupid is deep. It is a window into all of human behavior. If you understand stupid and why it happens, than you understand nearly everything about the bizarre universe of human actions.\nLet's start with a definition...\nstupid \ufffd adjective or noun. Taking actions that are contrary to ones own best interests, the imprudence of which is clearly visible to others.\nStupid is not just an innocent oversight, like locking yourself out of your house or forgetting your anniversary. Stupid has much higher standards than that. True stupidity requires an element of internal delusion and fantasy which smacks up hard against the brick wall of external reality.\nThe criminal justice system is rich with examples of spectacular stupidity. The guy who grows pot in his front yard, thinking it won't be noticed among the other plants, is fairly stupid. So is the inmate who walks away from a minimum security work camp with only two weeks left in his sentence. Then there is the lady who swindles an elderly relative out of thousands of dollars to support a drug habit, then kills the relative to try to cover her tracks. Evil, perhaps, but stupid provides more insight.\nIn fact, it is hard to find any criminal case that doesn't involve stupidity in one form or another.\nIf any criminal had held a staff meeting before the crime and talked the matter over with some impartial advisors, the advisors would have told him: \"Don't do it! That would be stupid!\" Unfortunately, most criminals don't have advisors, or wouldn't listen to them if they did, so they have to rely on their own best judgment.\nThe important thing to know about stupidity is this: No matter how foolish the act may seem to us, to the subject himself it seems perfectly reasonable at the time. The victim doesn't know he is being stupid, at least until later. Whatever he does makes perfect sense to him. It just happens to not coincide with reality.\nStupid isn't just a random act of idiocy. From our standpoint on the outside, it looks almost deliberately self-destructive\ufffdas though there was a little high-strung mustachioed guy inside the victim's head trying to sabotage them at every turn.\n\u2666 The Summerlin Syndrome \ufffd The involvement in the juvenile delinquency system of children living in Summerlin, Green Valley and other well-heeled districts of the city. Whatever the cause may be of their misbehavior, it is not poverty. Being spoiled rotten may play a role. Example: the 311 Boyz.\n\u2666 Summit View Youth Correctional Center \ufffd A maximum-security youth detention facility in North Las Vegas. Used for more dangerous and violent offenders and obviously not as pleasant as Spring Mountain or Caliente (although the name is equally scenic). Official info.\n\u2665 \ufffd'til death do you part\ufffd \ufffd An idealistic-sounding phrase that can have a more and more ominous tone as time goes on. Yes, it really may be \"'til death do you part,\" even after divorce, especially if you have children together.\nDivorce can be the beginning of a different kind of marriage, one based not on trust but on boundaries.\nMonday through Friday, it's Mom's house. Saturdays and Sundays, it's Dad's house. Major holidays alternate between Mom's and Dad's, even and odd years. Two weeks exclusively for each parent in the summer. Sounds simple, right?\nThe marriage is in the details. Let's say Mom is late delivering the kids to Dad's house on Friday evening. Does this mean Dad has the right to deduct the corresponding time on Sunday? Can he take additional time as a penalty, delivering the kids at 10 pm from now on instead of 7?\nMaybe Mom wants to take the kids for just one Saturday for a special event, but he won't negotiate. He expects Mom to stick with the letter of the divorce agreement but won't abide by it himself.\nDo we need to go back to court to resolve these problems, at the cost of another grand or two?\nInevitably, you gotta deal. You gotta kiss ass. When there is something you need from him, you gotta use psychology, just like when you were married. Make him think it's his idea. Give him the illusion that he's in control. That's all he really wants.\nThe kids are all that matters here. You'll suck it up for their sake. No point in them seeing war all the time.\nYou got boundaries: things you won't let him get away with. But there are other things you will let him get away with, just for the sake of peace. You're not going to fight over 15 minutes late, but you will fight over 3 hours late with no phone call.\nMost of all, you have to know your opponent. Get inside his head. Understand his puny little world. Try to think of what a Hell it must be to be trapped in there. Appreciate the sadness of it all. Try to love him again.\nIt's not easy loving a monster, but sometimes that's what you gotta do.\n\u2666 Trial by Peers \ufffd n. An \"alternative\" juvenile justice system in which teenage students accused of misdemeanor crimes at school are tried before a jury of their peers in a real courtroom. The courtroom is presided over by a real judge or Hearing Master, with students acting as attorneys. Official website | news article (1/30/06) | our criticisms. [1/30/06]\n\u2663 a trooper \ufffd A parent who has made mistakes and temporarily loses custody of their kids but who steps up to the plate and makes a valiant and well-focussed effort to get them back, often in spite of daunting difficulties. A trooper doesn't require much of the government's resources, because he or she does everything they need to, and they usually get their kids back quickly. Troopers make many sacrifices to support their kids (a fact that the kids won't appreciate until many years later), and if they make mistakes occasionally, they usually don't repeat them.\n\u2665 TPO \ufffd A Temporary Protective Order. This is court order instructing one party to stay away from another for a limited period of time, due to allegations of domestic violence. The issuing of a TPO is a civil matter, based chiefly on the discretion of the judge, but if it is violated, it becomes a criminal offense. TPOs can be issued in Family Court only when the parties have had a prior personal relationship. When they are married, then the TPO court may make temporary arrangements for spousal support, division of property and child custody until a divorce is filed. Thus, the TPO system is sometimes called, \"the poor man's divorce court.\" \ufffd official information.\n\ufffd triage \ufffd /trE-'\ufffdzh/ n. The assignment of limited resources to an overwhelming need so as to maximize their positive end effect.\nTo medics on the battlefield, triage means sorting the wounded and assigning medical services to them so as to maximize the total number of survivors. If there are 100 wounded soldiers and the resources to treat only half of them, then medics must choose those few who are most likely to benefit from treatment. The lightly wounded will probably be ignored, because they will survive without treatment, while the most severely injured might also be passed over, since they are likely to die anyway and the resources needed to treat them are so great. Inevitably, triage means leaving some soldiers to die even when you could have saved them.\nWhen dealing with any other social problem, triage is pretty much the same. Due to infinite need, you are never going to have the resources to solve all of the problems in front of you. Instead, you have to allocate your resources to the places where they are likely to have the greatest long-term positive effect, even if it means deliberately not helping someone who could be helped.\nMore on Triage\n\u2665 War of the Roses \ufffd A 1989 movie starring Michael Douglass and Kathleen Turner in which a divorce goes terribly, terribly wrong, escalating into a war that kills them both. A black comedy (Ha. Ha.). Often used as a metaphor for the Divorce from Hell. movie info, trailer, Google.\nOught to be required viewing for anyone considering divorce\ufffdor marriage!\n\u2660 \ufffdwardship terminated\ufffd \ufffd The bittersweet moment when a child who has spent most of his life in foster care becomes officially emancipated from the system and is now an \"adult\". This usually happens sometime between the ages of 17 and 20, at the discretion of the judge (usually Hardcastle) and usually at the request of the ward himself.\nImagine if this were you. You have lived in maybe 30 foster homes, none of whom wanted to adopt you. You turn 18, and now its time to \"age out\" of the system. You come before a judge who talks to you briefly about where you're going to live and what you're going to do for a living. Then he says, \"Wardship terminated,\" and you walk out of the courtroom.\nI have seen it happen, and it took place so quickly that I didn't realize what it meant until it was over.\n\"Wardship terminated.\"\nTry to remember your own childhood. When you turned 18, did your parents say, \"childhood terminated\" and put you out on the street?\nSure, you thought you were pretty mature and self-sufficient at 18, but were you really? When did you actually become independent of your family of origin? Wasn't it more like 23... or 36... or never?\nWere you really ready to become independent at 18? Was childhood really over?\n\"Wardship terminated\" is a very deep subject that I want to know more about. It says so much, but I'm not sure what.\n\"Wardship terminated,\" and you walk out the door.\nWhat is it like to grow up in a dozen or more families, some of which may have been pleasant but none of whom wanted you enough to keep you? What is it like to not have anyone to go back to when you screw up later?\n\"Wardship terminated\" is a very sad day and a very happy day. It seems to me there ought to be a little ceremony for it, some ice cream and cake or something. But what if you don't have anybody to celebrate it with?\nMaybe you can just have ice cream and cake in your room, then watch some TV and go to bed.\n&NBSP; WARNING: May be hazardous to your health. &NBSP;\nWhere Have All the Cowboys Gone? \ufffd A popular song by Paula Cole which is emblematic of the female position in many divorce cases...\nAudio sample (middle of page)\nThe song is a tragic commentary on a bad marriage to a no-good man, ending, we assume, in divorce. The problem, however, may not lie in the man but in the woman, who seems to have an inner conflict about what a cowboy is and what can be expected of him.\nWhere have all the cowboys gone? Obviously, she married one and got exactly what she paid for.\nListen, if you are looking for a stable, reliable man who is going to support you while you raise kids, do you really want a cowboy? \"Cowboy,\" as the term is generally understood (disregarding the gay references of a recent movie), is the sort of shoot-from-the-hip, bull-ridin', hard-fightin', mean-drinkin' daredevil who you would want to have on your side in a gun battle but who isn't exactly marriage material.\nBe straight with me, cowgirl: The main thing that drew you to a cowboy was the excitement factor, right? Excitement and long-term fidelity don't exactly mix. If you choose to read all sorts of imaginary qualities into him\ufffdreliability, honor, monogamy, etc.\ufffdbased on scanty evidence, then it's not really the cowboy's fault if he reverts to his true nature as soon as you walk down the aisle.\nA cowboy belongs on the range, M'am, and ought to be left there.\n89 entries above.

Childs in 1995.\nProperty is closed to the public\nThis large parcel includes mowings and cropland of the old Wilcox/Bushley Farm on Coppermine Road. Stone walls border the fields. There are also hardwoods, a swamp and a small pond that is home to a wealth of fish and animal life. Some of the fields show\nadvanced \u201cold field progression\u201d with ingrowth of cedars, shrubs, and invasives. This big open parcel recalls the time when the original \u201cWest Woods\u201d section of Farmington had been cleared and was home to family farms. Census records indicate that the land was owned by the Wilcox/Bushley family beginning in the mid-19th century. A part of the farmhouse is more than 200 years old, long antedating their ownership. Mary Bushley, who now occupies the old farmhouse at 119 Coppermine Rd., relates that her father kept chickens and cows and that before that there were orchards. The family farm originally comprised 106 acres, including the land now occupied by West District School. Sometimes the Bushley children would boldly venture all the way down through the wooded \u201chollow\u201d to New Britain Avenue. The children attended the West District School, near the Historical Society\u2019s 1799 \u201cStone Schoolhouse\u201d. Before that, neighborhood children shared the older building with blacks, Irish and Tunxis Indian descendants who had lived in the West District on and off Reservation land for many years. When the Stone Schoolhouse became a neighborhood chapel, the family attended services and church suppers in the building.\nSome of the Bushley land will be allowed to continue in the \u201cold field progression\u201d and revert to forest, while other portions will be mowed twice a year to retain them as historic farm fields. The pond will be protected from eutrophication, as the fields will no longer be treated with chemical fertilizers.",

Weaver, photographer who will be remembered by many readers.\nO.T. \"Oscar\" Shutt, who will be remembered by older readers, was the LE and W agent for many years, to be succeeded by LaVerne Johnson.\nThe LE and W passenger service from Sandusky, prior to suspension, permitted students from the Amsden area to ride the train into Fostoria each morning to attend Fostoria High School.\nCEDAR POINT EXCURSIONS\nMany older Fostorians will remember...like your editor...the excursion runs on the LE and W to Cedar Point. The train with a dozen or more coaches, started in Indiana and come through Fostoria shortly after daybreak and returned after dark. It was great for young and old alike to spend a whole day at Cedar Point..with the most famous beach west of Atlantic City.\nThe LE and W at one time provided the shortest route for passengers service from Fostoria to St. Louis.\nI remember William \"Billy\" Jaeger, one of Fostoria's older prominent citizens years ago, saying \"someday the LE and W will be no more, and when the rails and ties are removed it will make way for a street through Fostoria from the northeast to the southwest\". At least part of his prediction has come true...whether the roadbed becomes a street is another matter. It seems like a good idea to explore.\n\"Finis\" has now been written for the oldest rail line through Fostoria.",

        "raw_content": "Rear-End Accident Case\nPast Case in Queens\nDATE OF OCCURRENCE: 10/15/1993\nCLIENT: P.S. (38 year-old female)\nDESCRIPTION OF OCCURRENCE: Our client's vehicle was rear-ended by a truck on Rockaway Blvd., near Baisley Blvd., in Queens County. The truck driver reported that his foot slipped off the brake.\nINJURIES: Soft-tissue neck and back injuries - radiculopathy, myofascitis; herniated discs at C4-C5, C5-C6 and L5-S1 (confirmed by MRI).\nClient seen in Emergency Room on day of accident. She commenced physical therapy.\nOut of work - 10/15/93 to 4/8/94 (we helped client recover $9,000 for her lost wages). (The client, with barely a high school education worked with mentally-disabled adults, for a New York State Agency.)\n11/11/93 to 11/15/93 - admitted to hospital for traction, exercises and heat therapy.\nPain did not resolve, client continued with physical therapy.\n6/97 - Reports pain traveling from lower back into right leg .\nOut of work: parts of 8/97 to 9/97.\nBack surgery on 2/6/98: \"Right L5-S1 Hemilaminotomy and Excision of Herniated Disc\".\nOut of work: post-surgery to 3/31/98.\nWe retained a vocational economist who found that even though P.S. could work,\nshe was partially occupationally disabled so that she would earn less than her nondisabled counterparts and her worklife expectancy was reduced.\nRESULT: Settlement for $600,000.\n1. P.S. had a prior accident approximately nine months before this accident with a reported herniated disc at L5-S1, the same injury made worse in this accident and that ultimately required surgery.\n2. A lawsuit was commenced in Bronx County Supreme Court. In an aggressive move, in May, 1998, we obtained summary judgment for P.S. Summary judgment was a determination on paper, by a judge - without necessity of a trial - that the defendants truck owner and truck driver were 100% at fault for this accident. The only remaining issue would then be the amount of damages. This gave our client, P.S., a huge advantage.\n3. On March 2, 1999 we attended mediation, a non-binding settlement conference, to try to resolve this case. Defendants offered a settlement of $250,000, which we declined. We knew that the true value of this case was higher, as shown by the ultimate settlement figure.\n4. We showed an aggressive, trial-ready posture by obtaining the services of medical illustrators, who prepared customized drawings showing P.S.'s injuries and test results, and her back surgery. While expensive, these drawings are feared by defense counsel because they are powerful evidentiary tools that, had the case not settled, would have been enlarged and presented to the jury at trial.\nMedical drawings:\n(1) Cervical disc herniation: 11/8/93;\n(2) Lumbar disc herniation: 11/9/93;\n(3) Lumbar disc herniation: 8/7/97;\n(4) Lumbar disc herniation with subsequent surgical repair on 2/6/98.",

        "raw_content": "Posts for category: GI Procedures\nTags: Flexible Sigmoidoscopy\nA flexible sigmoidoscopy is a critical diagnostic tool to evaluate the health of your large intestine, or colon. An ultra-thin, flexible tube called a sigmoidoscope is inserted in the rectum and guided up through the intestine.\nThe tube contains a tiny camera at the end which provides the doctor with a view of your sigmoid colon, which is the last two feet of the large intestine. The sigmoidoscope also allows the doctor to take samples of tissue for later biopsy. Tissue biopsy is the definitive way to determine whether there are precancerous or cancerous changes in your tissue cells.\nThe sigmoidoscopy procedure is often combined with a colonoscopy because the sigmoidoscope doesn\u2019t show the entire colon, only the lower portion. Sigmoidoscopy may be recommended over colonoscopy because it often doesn\u2019t require anesthesia and is a faster procedure than colonoscopy.\nA flexible sigmoidoscopy can be used to determine the cause of intestinal problems like abdominal pain and bowel issues like diarrhea and constipation. It is also used to look for abnormal growths or polyps. It is also a vital tool to screen for colon and rectal cancer.\nFlexible sigmoidoscopy may be recommended if you are over 50 years old to help detect colon and rectal cancer in the early stages, when it is the most treatable. Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States, according to the American Cancer Society. Each year, about 150,000 new cases are diagnosed in this country, and 50,000 people will die of the disease.\nThe flexible sigmoidoscopy procedure is a safe, effective way to determine the health of your sigmoid colon. It is a vital tool in maintaining your good health. If you are having abdominal issues, or you are at least 50 years old, a flexible sigmoidoscopy can help you. Your doctor can tell you more about flexible sigmoidoscopy and other procedures to help you feel better.",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Maria Montessori was an amazing and accomplished woman. She was an Italian physician, scientist and experimenter, innovator, feminist, social reformer, peace advocate and world renowned educator. She is most known for her educational method which is based on her observations of the way children naturally learn. Born in the town of Chiaravalle in 1870, Maria Montessori became the first woman to receive a medical degree in Italy, having graduated from the University of Rome Medical School in 1896. Her subsequent clinical observations and her work with children with intellectual and developmental disabilities led her to discover how children learn and how they construct themselves from what they find in their immediate surroundings. What ultimately became the Montessori Method of education was based upon these initial scientific observations. Every aspect of her method including specific equipment, and exercises were developed based on what she observed children to do \u201cnaturally,\u201d without the interference of adults. She opened the first Montessori school\u2014the Casa dei Bambini, or Children\u2019s House\u2014in Rome on January 6, 1907. Astounded by the results of these first students, Montessori and her method of education became a global phenomenon. Subsequently, she traveled the world and wrote extensively about her approach to education, attracting many followers around the globe.\nMontessori\u2019s discovery that children teach themselves became the simple but profound truth that inspired her lifelong pursuit of educational reform, methodology, psychology, teaching, and teacher training-based on her dedication to furthering the understanding of the child and the learning process. She believed deeply that the way to transform the world and create lasting peace was through the enlightened education of children. Nominated three times for the Nobel Peace Prize, she was honored and respected throughout the world by the time of her death in 1952. Over a century later, her work continues in schools throughout the world.",

        "raw_content": "Back-to-school shopping not as exciting, but more expensive\nThere's a lot that changes when your children get older.\nSome of the things that seemed like big events dwindle in importance over the years, either because you've been doing it for years or both the parents and children have grown weary of the experience.\nBack-to-school shopping is no longer an event in our home.\nThat doesn't mean it's not expensive, just different.\nMy daughter, Claire, got her list of art supplies she'll need for a class in water colors.\nShe's a graphic design major and has taken more art classes than I ever would have thought a graphic design artist would need. But then again, I took a class in philosophy and Mideastern studies while I was in college. I know nothing about either. It's all part of the well-rounded education you get in college. I think by the time you get to college \ufffd any college \ufffd you should only have to pay for the courses that will lead to your career, but that's for another column.\nBack to Claire's list. It's long. It'll be expensive, and she'll need help paying for it.\nI don't really have a problem getting whatever she needs for classes. After all, she's doing well, enjoying it and it will lead to a degree and a job.\nThis year my son, Alek, heads off to college for the first time. He and his roommate already have purchased the essentials: a large, flat-screen TV and refrigerator.\nNot sure how much he realizes there are other things he'll need.\nWe'll take him shopping, and he'll learn how quickly his savings gets depleted when the bills start adding up.\nThese shopping trips are less of a production than when Claire and Alek were in elementary school.\nThose days, we had lists and headed to the store to pick up whatever the school required for that particular grade.\nIt was a big deal. The kids were excited because they got new stuff, and as they got older, got to use supplies that told them they were getting bigger, and nothing means more when you are a kid than getting older and having more responsibility. It's not until you're older when you realize more stuff and more responsibility aren't really as cool as they used to be.\nSometime around middle school and high school, buying school supplies became a lot less glamorous.\nFor the kids, it just meant that school was starting soon, and the days of staying up late and sleeping in were about over.\nFor parents, it meant spending money and getting back into a routine.\nI was never one who was glad when school started because the kids were back in school.\nI liked having them around the house. It meant more free time for all of us. And, of course, summer was baseball, and school starting officially meant I had to wait another year until I could hear \"play ball.\"\nSo we'll take Claire and Alek shopping and pick up some supplies for the upcoming school year.\nFor Alek, it'll be a new experience; for Claire, the same, old routine.\nI guess for my wife and I, it'll be a little different. We are sending our last child to college.\nSeems odd to think that this is the end of a life we have known for so long.\nBut life isn't so much about the changes, but how you handle them.\nWe'll adjust, even though shopping for school supplies has changed from picking out just the right book bag to finding the best flat-screen TV.\nPatrick Murphy, of Columbus, Neb., is a former assistant managing editor of The Telegram.",

        "raw_content": "Longoria's hat trick sparks Buffs' soccer\nAfter a thrilling win in overtime last Tuesday to end the regular season, the No. 5 seed Garden City Buffaloes (11-3-3) left no room for a suspenseful finish, after dismantling the No. 12 seed Hutchinson Salthawks (6-11-0), 5-0 in the first round of the Class 6A regional playoffs Tuesday night at Buffalo Stadium.\nSophomore MaKaylee Longoria played a big part in the Buffalo victory, netting three goals and assisting in another. The three goals on Tuesday gave Longoria her, 9th, 10th and 11th goals of the season, which leads the team, while also giving Longoria her first hat trick of the season.\n\u201cI think I performed really well,\u201d said Longoria of her performance.\nHead coach Joaquin Padilla was also impressed by the sophomore\u2019s performance.\n\u201cShe\u2019s one of the team captains, so she needs to set the example for the rest of them,\" Padilla said. \"I thought she pulled everyone up and they played as well as she did.\u201d\nEven with her stellar performance, Longoria knows that she needed her team to perform well in order for the Buffaloes to get the win on Tuesday.\n\u201cWe all played really well as a team today,\" Longoria said. \"We were just connecting really well, and we were able to get the big win.\u201d\nThe first half started off slow for the Buffaloes, as the Salthawks seemed to be the more aggressive team in the first 9 minutes of the game. After about the 10-minute mark, however, the Buffaloes found their footing and took control of the game, applying unrelenting pressure on Hutchinson\u2019s back four.\nThe defense finally cracked in the 20th minute when sophomore Adamaris Medina, came off the bench to put Garden City ahead 1-0. A misplay from the Salthawk goalkeeper allowed Medina to put in the rebound giving the Buffaloes their first goal of the game.\n\u201cWe need to get on the board as quickly as we can, because if we don\u2019t, we can find ourselves in a difficult situation, so we tried to get on the board as soon as we could,\u201d said Padilla of the urgency his team felt in the first half. \u201cWe missed a few in the first half, we should have had a couple more. But we adjusted to take charge of the ball. That was the change we needed to attack the ball more.\u201d\nIn the second half, the floodgates opened for the Salthawks as the Buffaleos put four goals past them in 16 minutes.\nThe first goal of the second half, and the second of the game, came in the 43rd minute when Longoria was fed a pass from sophomore teammate Haily Enriquez, to give the Buffaloes a 2-0 lead.\nFive minutes later, Longoria payed it forward to junior Noeli Munoz, by serving up an assist which led to Munoz\u2019 fourth goal of the season, and more importantly gave the Buffs a 3-0 lead.\nLongoria converted a 52nd minute penalty kick which gave the sophomore her second goal of the game and Garden City a 4-0 lead.\nThe fourth and last Buffalo goal was added when Longoria scored her third goal of the game in the 59th minute, when she sent a great chip over the Hutchinson goalie\u2019s head. This was the end of the Buffalo blitz.\nPadilla knew the outside of the Salthawk defense was vulnerable which gave the Buffaloes an advantage throughout the game.\n\u201cWe had the outside open to cross the ball and the plan was to get the ball wide and I thought the did a good job on that,\" Padilla said.\nWhile gleefully smiling to her teammates on their big win, Longoria knows a good performance can go along way to help push the Buffs deep into the playoffs.\n\u201cI think it kind of set the tone for how the next games are gonna go. We\u2019re just ready to compete on Thursday,\u201d Longoria said.\nPadilla is also confident the big win can carry over to the regional championship.\n\u201cYeah. We hope the momentum carries over for Thursday,\u201d Padilla said.\nThe Buffaloes will look to become regional champions Thursday when they travel to Wichita to take on the East Blue Aces for the right to advance to the state quarterfinals. The pitch is set for 6 p.m.",

        "raw_content": "This is going to be one of those pointless, rambling posts, but I'll break it up with plenty of pictures. It was a beautiful weekend in Glasgow, so I decided to try out a real camera on Saturday, rather than being lazy and relying on my iPhone's camera. My husband (who wishes to be known on this blog as King B from now on) and I wandered all around the town, with nowhere special to go. We just wanted to get out and enjoy the day. Initially I was lured out with the promise of getting a tiger. I was born during a tiger year, so I'm hoping that the fact that 2010 is also year of the tiger will be auspicious for me.\nWe went down to Hamley's in St Enoch's Centre to check out the cuddly toys - no decent tigers though. Lots and lots of the traditional Hamley's bears. And dogs.\nThen we stopped in at Tam Shepherd's Trick Shop, a great old traditional magic and jokes shop, and a Glasgow institution, on Queen Street. The staff there are really nice, and the shop is packed to the rafters with interesting and curious items. I bought a pack of tarot cards, as I've got a bit of a collection going.\nThen we went to King's Court, a line of shops situated between Argyle Street and the river. We went to the fantastic vintage store, Mr Ben, so that King B could get a faux fur coat. He's had this weird obsession lately, and as he so rarely gets interested in fashion, I had to humour him.\nAfter Mr Ben, we went next door to Mono for veggie burgers. I wanted to get one of their home-brewed lemonades as well, but there's something wrong with the pipes. I had to settle for wine instead. While we were there, we browsed through Mono's record store, Monorail, and bought a Link Wray album.\nBy the time we got home, we were exhausted - too tired to do anything but watch old episodes of Saturday Night Live.\nLabels: Glasgow , Going out , Music , Shopping , Shops , TV",

        "raw_content": "Building Resilience is Central to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 1.5C Report\nThe 1.5\u00b0C report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) puts resilience of societies and Earth\u2019s ecosystems at the heart of climate adaptation and mitigation. It goes further than previous IPCC reports, and sets the challenge of climate change within the context of sustainable development and planetary stewardship. It calls for climate-resilient development that strengthens sustainable development and poverty eradication by transformation and ambitious change.\nThe report is a landmark and welcomed by the Global Resilience Partnership (GRP) and its host partner, the Stockholm Resilience Centre (SRC).\nThe report provides two important insights.\nFirst, the impacts on societies and ecosystems will be significantly more severe at 2\u00b0C than 1.5\u00b0C, indicating that 2\u00b0C may no longer be considered \u201csafe\u201d:\nImpacts on people\u2019s health, livelihoods, food security, water supply, human security, and economic growth are all projected to increase with global warming of 1.5\u00b0C and increase further with 2\u00b0C.\nThose living in least developed countries and small island sates will be affected the most. For example, limiting global warming to 1.5\u00b0C is expected to reduce the number of people in poverty by up to several hundred million by 2050, and to reduce the number of people globally exposed to water stress by 50%\nThe world risks destabilizing ice sheets on Greenland and Antarctica. According to the report, \u201cinstabilities could be triggered around 1.5\u00b0C to 2\u00b0C of global warming\u201d.\nEven at 1.5\u00b0C some ecosystems such as warm water corals are likely to cross tipping points and their areas shrink significantly. At 1.5\u00b0C, coral reefs are projected to decline 70\u201390% with larger losses (>99%) at 2\u00b0C.\nAt 2\u00b0C, ecosystems on 13% of Earth\u2019s land are projected to \u201cundergo a transformation\u201d from one type to another.\nLimiting global warming to 1.5\u00b0C rather than 2\u00b0C could prevent permafrost thawing over an area the size of Greenland (1.5 to 2.5 million km2)\nThe second insight is the estimate that there is a larger carbon budget associated with the 1.5\u00b0C target than previously assessed. That is, the world can emit more carbon for the same probability of stabilizing climate at 1.5\u00b0C. The report sets out the many long-term benefits of climate stability at 1.5\u00b0C, and how actions to meet this goal will help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.\n\u201cThe IPCC report highlights the systemic nature of the challenge. We can\u2019t simply take action on one problem. Solving the climate problem needs a holistic and systemic approach and one which involves radical and transformative solutions,\u201d says Deon Nel, CEO of the Global Resilience Partnership (GRP).\n\u201cWe are facing a new reality. Disasters and shocks are occurring more frequently, and chronic stresses are lasting longer. Healthy ecosystems that underpin our social and economic systems are strained. We will need institutions, policies, societies and businesses that can function under more unpredictable and uncertain conditions. This means embracing ecological, social and economic diversity, to build a resilient future\u201d.",

This represents a 553 percent increase from the same month last year when only 125,000 barrels were exported to the United States each day.\nThe most recent oil import information from the DOE is from August 2004.\nHalliburton's KBR subsidiary plays a major role in keeping Iraq's oil flowing to the United States. The company reconstructs Iraq's oil industry through its controversial no-bid contract with the U.S. military, known as Restore Iraqi Oil, or RIO.\nKBR is also involved in repairing the pipelines and other oil facilities that come under attack by Iraqis resisting the U.S. occupation. Iraq's oil pipelines were attacked 130 times over the seven-month period ending in July.\nAlthough the military claims it terminated the no-bid RIO contract in response to accusations that Halliburton was unfairly favored in the contracting process, the company continues to profit under RIO and remains the primary contractor for repairing Iraq's dilapidated oil infrastructure.\nMeanwhile, new evidence shows that Halliburton received 60 percent of Iraq's oil revenues during the period when the U.S. Coalition Provisional Authority was in control from May 2003 through June 2004.",

The chamber is lined with mucus so dissolved organic matter, diatoms and other plankton get in it. The out-flowing water is channeled together and flows out of the larger holes you see on a sponge.

Wanting to get (even) more involved with the club, she has also become a member of the Running Steering Group leadership team.\nShe takes her training very seriously and can regularly be seen running solo in all weathers around the streets of Hedge End on non-club training nights and weekends.\n\u200bMany congratulations Kym and thank you for all the time and enthusiasm you've given to the club in such a short period.\nThe HERC AGM will be held in the Hampshire Suite at the Ageas Bowl, commencing at 20.00 on Thursday the 22nd of March 2018.",

        "raw_content": "Jan 22 Because of His Dream: The Impact of Martin Luther King Jr.\nJulia Schemmer\nHoliday, History/Traditions\nI\u2019m an avid dreamer. I take joy in making long to-do lists, and deriving worlds of possibility from the mundane and the ordinary. As a dreamer myself, I\u2019m constantly inspired by people who had a dream for their life, and invested everything to make it a reality.\nOne such dreamer was Martin Luther King Jr. Born to Atlanta, Georgia and the son of a pastor, he was moved to end the civil injustice that his people endured. His iconic speech, made on August 28 1963, set the agenda for activists all throughout the United States: to fearlessly work for the day where people of all color are given the opportunity to pursue their passions and live a satisfying life.\nTo be honest, it wasn\u2019t until recently that I discovered the weight of Martin Luther King Jr\u2019s words. I\u2019m a Caucasian, middle-class teen from Southern California, and by no means have I experienced the pain and atrocities that he did inspired him to march forward in the direction of his dreams. Yet, in taking the unpopular opinion as a journalist, I began to learn more and more about the courage that he possessed.\nMy goal as a writer, journalist and blogger is to expose the stories that are relevant to people, and to introduce them in approachable ways. However, often, this requires me to take a hard stance against certain issues, such as sexism in music videos or lack of diversity in the media industry. People will often disagree with me, explaining that I\u2019m wrong, that I\u2019m not supposed to be thinking like that, and that I\u2019m just a kid.\nTo take the unpopular belief takes courage \u2013 lots of it. Yet, as your fingers shake typing the truth on your well-worn keyboard or your voice quivers explaining your perspective, freedom is being expressed. Martin Luther King Jr. took an unconventional point of view and changed it into something society so blissfully accepted, eventually. He endured the pain because of the promise that lay beneath: the promise that his children would be able to live in a world free of discrimination, racism, and injustice.\nWhile our nation, and indeed our world, has a long way to go until we can proclaim we met his dream, because of his vision, we are able to see that we too have the ability to lunge forward into the next era with the confidence and agility that we hold the potential to change the oppressive cycle.\nFrom one dreamer to another, thank you.\nJulia Schemmer is a senior from Norco High School, where she participates in five AP classes, is the president of the Female Empowerment Club and Link Crew, and publicist of Chinese Culture Club, American Cancer Society, and the FIDM Fashion Club. Aside from managing the communications at Her Culture, she is the founder of She Speaks Media and The Face of Cancer, editor for The Prospect Magazine, editor in chief of Motivation Daily, and contributor for the Huffington Post. Her future endeavors consist of becoming an international human rights lawyer, foreign correspondent, diplomat, and finally seeing the day where Leonardo DiCaprio wins an Oscar.\njulia schemmer, martin luther king jr, segregation\nJan 23 Finnish Babies Sleep in Boxes: Method in the Madness\nJan 20 The Kindness of a Stranger",

The wall on the left is blue and emblazoned with the phrase \"immigrants enrich us.\" The wall on the right is red and carries the message that \"immigrants endanger us.\" Where the two walls collide has been shaded purple, a color long used in Yahoo's branding.\nThe ad has sparked controversy, drawing questions and accusations from thosewho claim there's no middle ground in debate over whether or not immigrants pose a threat to the communities they migrate to. But while critics condemn the controversial ad as a false compromise which features an anti-immigration message, Yahoo News has claimed the ad is meant to illustrate the company's commitment to reporting all sides.\n\"These ads are meant to reflect the current state of our country, and the polarizing conversations taking place on a number of issues,\" a Yahoo News spokesperson tells Bustle in an emailed statement. \"Yahoo News has a long history as a non-partisan news organization, with a mission to present divergent perspectives.\"\nIndeed, the ad featuring a border wall and messages about immigration are just one of the ads in Yahoo News' \"See all Sides\" campaign. Other ads in the series examine topics like health care, internet privacy, and climate change. In one ad, the phrase \"healthcare is a right\" in blue is juxtaposed with the phrase \"healthcare is a privilege\" in red. In another, a blue factory emblazoned with the phrase \"save the environment\" bleeds into a red factory emblazoned with the phrase \"stimulate the economy.\"\nAccording to Yahoo News, the ad campaign is meant to be viewed in its totality, with users seeing the different ads in rotation. But the company has noted that users will see different ads depending on the platform they're using and what time they're active.\nBut many social media users have criticized Yahoo News' immigration-focused ad since its debut. \"Hey @Yahoo, hating immigrants and spreading lies that they are dangerous is not on a level playing field with thinking immigrants are humans,\" one user on Twitter wrote. \"One is racist garbage, the other is not.\"\nOthers argued the ad wrongly attempted to claim that the truth is always found as a compromise between two opposing sides, a fallacy known as false equivalence or false compromise. \"I'm pretty sure that the approach espoused by this Yahoo News ad is the exact problem with many news organizations today,\" one Twitter user wrote. \"There aren't two legitimate sides to every story. There's the truth. They should try that sometime.\"\nYahoo, however, has implied that the ad campaign is designed to illustrate the company's commitment to non-partisan news. Indeed, the company described the upgraded app the ads promote as having \"a number of new features designed to deepen trust among audiences and help them see all sides of the story.\"\nThose features reportedly include what Yahoo calls \"The 360,\" a feature that enables users to scan news stories on the same topic from multiple outlets all in one place so as to \"get the complete picture.\" The upgraded app also includes a \"Fact check\" feature, where \"statements and claims made within an article are verified by Yahoo News for accuracy,\" according to the company.\nYahoo News Under Fire Over \u2018See All Sides\u2019 Ad Campaign Featuring Anti-Immigrant Message (10 Pics) Reviewed by Facts on December 02, 2018 Rating: 5",

Registration is now open for the weeklong, half-day camps running Monday, March 19 though Friday, March 23.\nCamp DCL provides unique learning experiences and hands-on fun for kids, giving them the chance to discover what they want to be. This year\u2019s spring break camp themes are Be a Builder and Be a STEAM-y Chef.\nBe a Builder \u2013 Kids will tackle design-and-build projects both large and small, including collapsible cardboard forts, wood birdhouses, and brick and mortar experiments. Camps are available at the library\u2019s Castle Pines, Castle Rock and Highlands Ranch locations.\nBe a STEAM-y Chef \u2013 Kids will cook up two recipes each day, learning science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) concepts like the science of taste and genetic modification. Camps are available at the library\u2019s Lone Tree, Parker and Roxborough locations.\nThe 2018 camp themes may sound familiar to former Camp DCL campers, but Kerri Morgan, Douglas County Libraries department head special events, says this year\u2019s camps will offer brand-new experiences, so any returning campers can expect something different.\nCamps are priced at $155 to $165 for the week, based on the theme, and limited scholarships may be available from the Douglas County Libraries Foundation for qualified applicants.\nTo learn more about Camp DCL spring break camps and/or scholarship opportunities, visit DCL.org or call 303-791-7323.\nDenver Art Museum Breaks Ground on Renovation of Iconic Gio Ponti-Designed North Building\n$150M Project to be Completed in 2021\nDENVER \u2013 Jan. 11, 2018 \u2013 The Denver Art Museum broke ground yesterday on a comprehensive renovation of its iconic North Building, the only completed structure in North America designed by renowned Italian architect Gio Ponti. Machado Silvetti and Denver-based Fentress Architects are the design team behind the $150 million project, slated for completion timed to the building\u2019s 50th anniversary in 2021. The design will unify the entirety of the DAM\u2019s campus, streamline visitor access to the museum\u2019s collections, exhibitions and serve as a beacon for the surrounding neighborhood.\nThe DAM has raised $110 million toward the capital campaign, and in November 2017 voters approved $35.5 million in funding for the project through the City\u2019s general obligation bond initiative to help fund key infrastructure and safety upgrades for the nearly 50-year-old building. In recognition of a $25 million lead gift from Board Chairman Lanny Martin and his wife, Sharon, the North Building will be renamed the Martin Building upon reopening to the public. Additional lead project donors included Anna and John J. Sie, who have pledged $12 million for the realization of the welcome center, as well as the Avenir Foundation, Fred and Jana Bartlit, the Bonfils-Stanton Foundation, the Helen K. and Arthur E. Johnson Foundation, the Morgridge Family Foundation and Amanda J. Precourt.\nFor museum information, call 720-865-5000 or visit DenverArtMuseum.org.",

        "raw_content": "Our Town (Page 4)\nSelf-reliance is only one side of Hilo\u2019s coin: There is also an unspoken rule that you give before you take. Those who ignore the rule are politely tolerated but, for reasons unknown to them, ultimately find that things never really work out.\nThings are working out well for Kalewa Correa and his partner, Kaleo Veary-Correa. I\u2019ve known them both for years: Kalewa since the mid-1990s, soon after he returned to Honolulu from university in Colorado; Kaleo from a little later, when she returned to O\u2018ahu to attend UH after a family move to the Mainland. Back when I first met Kalewa, he talked about moving to the Big Island, building a house, living completely off the grid. I loved the idea but wrote it off as the Green Acres daydream of a kid born and raised on O\u2018ahu\u2019s windward side. Then I ran into him in Honolulu a few months back. He told me I ought to stop by his farm the next time I\u2019m in Hilo\u2014so I did.\n\u201cI came up here once with my dad and just fell in love with the Big Island, felt I had a connection to it,\u201d he says. \u201cLater on, Kaleo and I came over from O\u2018ahu and camped out in the only small clearing there was here. It was a totally clear night. We saw a comet shooting and all the stars, and we just said, \u2018This is where we\u2019re supposed to be.\u2019\u201d\nWhere Kalewa and Kaleo are is Kaiwiki, across the Wailuku River and five miles uphill from Hilo town. Up above where the cane fields used to be, in what was once known as Portuguese Camp, which borders the old Filipino Camp\u2014that is, in the segregated housing clusters that were once home to the various communities of plantation workers.\nKalewa\u2019s Hawaiian family tree has roots in the Big Island; so too does his Portuguese side, his Azorean ancestors having become naturalized Hawaiian citizens in the 1860s. It was his Portuguese great-great-grandfather who first leased this ten-acre spread from the kingdom, and then later bought it. It has remained in the family\u2019s possession ever since, though Kalewa\u2019s grandparents were forced to abandon the Big Island for O\u2018ahu during the Great Depression.\nWhen the couple made their camping trip in 2005, the rolling property was drowning in waiawi\u00ad\u2014cherry guava\u2014an invasive, fast-growing hardwood that creates nearly impenetrable thickets. Both were then grad students on O\u2018ahu; over the course of a single spring break, they cleared a space and built a one-room cabin. It took an additional two months of chainsawing and bulldozing to clear the bulk of their land, and now, four years later, they\u2019re about to harvest roughly nine thousand organic, white-flesh pineapples to sell at the farmers market and various health food stores in town. Down on the back of the property, they\u2019re experimenting with fuel crops and hope to eventually produce enough bio-diesel to run all of their farming equipment. There will also be a taro patch and heirloom tomatoes and anything else they feel like growing. A few hundred yards from the main house, there\u2019s a canvas yurt where Cameron Walter, a band-mate of Kalewa\u2019s from his Colorado days, lives. By day, Cam serves as farmhand; by night, they make music in the yurt\u2019s recording studio. They are completely off the electric grid.\nHow three people could possibly achieve all of this is hard to fathom \u2026 until you consider the many other hands involved. \u201cIt\u2019s just super-aloha up here,\u201d says Kalewa. \u201cI grew up knowing all my neighbors, but it was different: Because of the pace on O\u2018ahu, everybody did their own thing\u2014over here there\u2019s a little more time for everybody to offer each other help.\u201d\nThat help has come in many forms. Puggy, who lives across the road, helped raise their roof and also removed and milled for them an ancient koa tree that had died on their property. Souza, the couple\u2019s 84-year-old neighbor and a lifelong Kaiwiki farmer, taught them everything they know about pineapple farming and supplied them with their starter plants. In exchange, they plan to help him market his crops.\n\u201cOur lives depend on our neighbors,\u201d says Kaleo. \u201cThe other day, one got his tractor stuck all the way to the floorboards. So Kalewa went over with our tractor and pulled him out\u2014it\u2019s like nothing, like you would do for your family: You don\u2019t expect anything in return.\u201d",

According to Janezashvili, \u201cAfter the program, I realized that my presentation skills are absolutely different and improved. The experience received during the program helps me to exercise my work more successfully and qualified.\u201d\nUpon her return to Georgia after HRAP, Janezashvili received higher professional recognition because of the education she had acquired. She was appointed from her position as Project Director of Article 42 of the Constitution to the post of Chairperson of the Board. Currently in this position, she supervises and manages the organization\u2019s operations, leads board activities, and submits reports and presentations to the General Assembly regarding the organization\u2019s activities. She has also begun her pursuit of a PhD program in Law at Caucasus School of Law in Georgia and is completing her dissertation on the subject of Women\u2019s Rights.\nAnother important feature of HRAP is the opportunity it provides for participants to meet with other human rights advocates from around the world and share their different and unique perspectives and experiences. For Janezashvili, \u201cThe greatest benefit of my participation in HRAP is new relations with human rights defenders. I shared their experience in human rights which will help me in future activities.\u201d The HRAP participants are also provided housing and accommodations during their four months\u2019 stay in New York and Washington, D.C. for them to get to know one another and be comfortable during their stay. Janezashvili recalls from her experience, \u201cI consider that the environment during the program helped me fast in adapting with program participants and friendship relations,\u201d and \u201cI am really happy that now I have friends around the world.\u201d\nJanuary 2014 update: Janezashvili is currently the Executive Director of the Association Unity of Judges of Georgia.\nFebruary 2017 Update: Janezashvili has been a Hubert H. Humphrey fellow at Washington College of Law, American University since April 2016. She hopes to focus on judicial issues within human rights and specifically those associated with hate crimes against LGBT+ people.",

        "title": "In Defence Of Dave Cook, Robert Florence... But Not Games Journalism - The internet is massive",
        "raw_content": "In Defence Of Dave Cook, Robert Florence\u2026 But Not Games Journalism\nNOTE: this is not a piece by me. It was done by my friend Steve Burns. I am just posting it here at his request, as he;s too lazy to set up his own blog.\nEDIT: Since this piece was written, Eurogamer has amended its original story. I won\u2019t be getting into that right now, as the situation is changing and very complex. I still believe this piece is relevant.\nAnother day, another round of game journo in-fighting. This is not unusual: in an industry of opinions and instant feedback, it\u2019s par for the course. Yesterday was different, however, because Rob Florence had written this, and Eurogamer had published it: a powerful, influential combo. The internet, predictably, exploded. John Walker wrote a wonderful response to it, which really made me think about how game journos are perceived: please read it.\nSo then, if John Walker has covered this ground already (and with far more style, I might add) then why am I bothering? Well, a close friend of mine was mentioned in one piece, as was Lauren Wainwright.\nI can\u2019t speak for Lauren, because I don\u2019t know her. But I can speak in defence of Dave Cook \u2013 if not the industry as a whole. Dave Cook is not corrupt. I know this because he and I have been friends for years now. We worked at the same publishing firm for most of that time. We\u2019ve shared far too many drink-fuelled nights putting this industry to the sword, for every reason under the sun. Dave Cook works harder and faster than most and has been rewarded for his efforts by his current role at VG247, where he works tirelessly to serve its ever-growing fanbase. I\u2019ve never seen him take a bribe, nor a backhander. The only thing he\u2019s ever taken that I didn\u2019t agree with is the moniker \u2018VG247\u2019s Dave Cook\u2019, like he\u2019s a member of The Beatles or something. But that\u2019s a minor irritant, and he\u2019s a good friend.\nDave Cook is not corrupt. But then, I\u2019m not sure Rob Florence was saying that. Wasn\u2019t his article about how we appear, when we\u2019re tweeting any old shite, in our minds innocently or not? I think so. That Dave\u2019s name was mentioned stings for him (as well as Lauren Wainwright, no doubt) because it looks like he (and Lauren) are being singled out. Not a good look. I spoke to Dave this morning, and he sounded in rude health for a man who had just been (character) assassinated.\nHarsh times, but the tweets were public, and Dave has admitted it was a mistake to tweet that nonsense. Why did he tweet it though? Because he wanted a PS3? Nah: he\u2019s got one, and if he ever wanted another he could call any number of people and get one shipped over faster than it takes internet commenters to call a columnist a \u2018fag\u2019 because they disagree with him.\nNo. Dave Cook is a self promoter, like most (but, importantly, not all) of the most visible people in this game. Twitter, Facebook: his name is probably scrawled in graffiti all over London, Paris, Milan and of course, Edinburgh. If he wasn\u2019t at so many events, \u2018VG247\u2019s Dave Cook\u2019 would be so all-encompassing as to pass into legend. Does Dave Cook have major reconstructive surgery to conceal his identity, like Tyler Durden? Are there many Dave Cooks, like James Bond, and one simply replaces the last? Does he, in fact, have two hearts? No. He\u2019s a Scottish bloke with a questionable beard who loves games, goes to events. He\u2019s a friendly sort, enthusiastic. You\u2019d like him. You\u2019d like to have drinks with him.\nAgain, however, he\u2019s a self-promoter. In an industry where your name is your calling card, he\u2019d be silly not to be. You know why? Who actually, really, reads everything you come out with? Not a lot of people. Reputation is everything in the games industry, because this is access journalism. We\u2019re not on the frontlines in the Middle East. Botherer, as usual, was right about the GMAs being a love in, with PR\u2019s setting it up and voting in it. If you want to make it to the top, then you\u2019ve got to be in the game to some degree.\nThose are the rules, and they need to change. The hard part is, those involved don\u2019t see the game. They don\u2019t see it as corrupt, because it\u2019s actually not. Having worked in the industry myself, I\u2019ve flown around the world. Done the 5 star hotels. Been out on the after-event drinks. The closest I\u2019ve seen to someone crossing the line on a trip was when a journo ordered lobster for main and lobster for desert, Sean Bateman-style. Our PR guide looked aghast. But again, that\u2019s straight up taking the piss, rather than demanding cash for good scores.\nSo, I\u2019ve been around the block a bit. Has any of this hospitality ever changed my opinion of a game? No. I recently flew out on a trip with a major publisher, to one of the greatest countries on earth. I saw the sights, basked in the sun. I had free drinks. I came home and said that its direct competitor was better. It is.\nAgain, from the inside, that\u2019s the game: you fly out, see stuff, have a laugh or two. Meet some nice people. I know that my opinion won\u2019t be affected. But do my readers know that? They don\u2019t. Because of this, I try to minimise the amount of dickswinging I do on social media. I don\u2019t take pictures of promos and post them on Facebook. I rarely tweet about being on a trip, or at least I try not to. It makes you sound like a cunt, in my opinion.\nAnd where has this gotten me? Nowhere. I\u2019ve written for magazines for years. No-one knows who the fuck I am. That\u2019s fine: I\u2019m not good enough to give it the big \u2018un about everything I write. I don\u2019t play the game to its full extent, and I\u2019m out of step. But I know it exists, and even though we\u2019re not corrupt, it can bloody well look like it. I have friends in PR. Good friends. That\u2019s all I see it as. Others don\u2019t. Maybe it\u2019s time we had a big think about that. Dave Cook isn\u2019t corrupt, and Rob Florence isn\u2019t wrong. But something has to give. Will it? No fucking way. As John Walker and Florence stated, look at the knee jerk responses from people. We\u2019re not above suspicion, nor criticism, like all journalists \u2013 even if we\u2019re not doing anything wrong. But the more we swan around the world, telling people to fuck off when they ask if going away to the world\u2019s best hotels with your mates who look after these games might be a conflict of interest, the more we do ourselves a disservice. We love games, we get excited about games. But we need to remember where the line is. Our readers will.\nWhat\u2019s all this, then? \u2192\nOne thought on \u201cIn Defence Of Dave Cook, Robert Florence\u2026 But Not Games Journalism\u201d\nboringvsfunny\nNice one Burns. I think I remember the lobster incident and if it\u2019s the occasion I\u2019m thinking of you have falsified certain details, which is libel or, as it\u2019s apparently been renamed during the last two days, slander.",

        "raw_content": "What is the IdeaSIP network?\nThe IdeaSIP network is a communications network using the SIP procotol to allow you to talk absolutely free of charge to any of its users. However, not only can you talk to other IdeaSIP users free of charge, but there are many other networks with whom we peer that you can talk to as well, just by dialing their SIP number or using their SIP URI (which looks a lot like an email address). If you have friends you want to call, but they don't have accounts, have them sign up! Signing up is easy and painless, and we promise that we will never sell your account information to other people as none of us want to get more of those emails with subjects like \"Ch34p D.R.UG.$ frm CA-NA.d.a.\"\nIf you purchase IdeasOUT credits, you can call people who don't have IdeaSIP accounts, and IdeasIN virtual phone numbers let people from regular telephones or cell phones call you. Your basic IdeaSIP account, however, will always be free, and there are a host of services you can use from it, such as free 411 US Directory Assistance, free calls to US, UK, Germany, Netherlands, and Norway toll-free numbers, access to the Tell Me information service, free calling to thousands of peer networks, and more! Add that to your basic account features and it's a total communications package we think you'll love.\nWith IdeaSIP, you can keep in touch with friends, family, or just about anyone from almost anywhere. IdeaSIP is voice, video, IM, and so much more. To use IdeaSIP, you can use a software phone, a SIP video phone, a SIP IM client, a Wi-Fi phone like the Nokia E-series, a Windows CE PDA, your regular telephone, etc. There are even ways to connect to IdeaSIP with your mobile phone or your regular desk phone, keeping in touch no matter where you are!\nIdeaSIP is not a replacement for your basic phone. There are some crucial differences between the IdeaSIP communications service and a traditional phone service that you should know about. First and foremost, we don't offer emergency services (911, 999, 112, 110, etc), but there are some other things of which you should be aware.\nSound interesting? Why not sign up and give it a try?",

Nevertheless, generally speaking the ban applies not only to regular citizens but to police officers units as well. This significantly complicates revealing and acquiring evidence in police investigations. Therefore, a computer software to overcome this problem is needed.\nIn the long term it is foreseen that INACT (INDECT Advanced Image Catalog Tool) application will aid the police in combating crime, especially those related to children pornography focusing on protecting the young victims and prosecuting the producers of the content.\nThe goals of the INACT service is to allow for creation of a multimedia repository of digital images (in future - other media types) which are Police evidence and to allow for search for identical and similar images in the suspect large database. The proposed catalogue would not require to store the images, but just low- and high-level metadata of the images.\nLast week a meeting of researchers from AGH and Police Officers from General Headquarters of Polish Police took place. During the meeting the second version of the INACT software was installed. This version significantly improves the functionalities provided by the first version. Among other things the catalogue is accessible through the network, which allows multiple Police Units to work with the same catalogue at the same time. Additionally, software used to search the forbidden content was merged into the DEFT operating system, which is a state of the art forensic tool.",

        "raw_content": "The fat deposits that occur in connective tissue and force themselves out once they are trapped are known as Cellulite. Afterwards, they push upward underneath an individual\u2019s skin causing ugly lumps and bumps. They mostly affect post pubertal females and they can be found in the buttocks, thighs, abdomen and legs. Treating cellulite can be costly. Apart from that, some people find it shameful and embarrassing to reveal the affected areas of their bodies to practitioners for examination. Here are four effective ways to get rid of cellulite.\nYou can adopt a regular routine of body massage prior to bathing in the morning. When you use your fingers to exert force on your body, you will improve the lymphatic flow thereby preventing future formation of cellulite. Carrying out the massage with spices and oils such as juniper, cedar, rosemary, strawberry, clover, sunflower and almond among others can loosen cellulite and break it down with time. Apart from preventing cellulite formation, massaging relaxes the body, relieves it from stress and causes excitement especially when it is being performed by your partner.\nThis is a natural bacterial fighter and it is abbreviated as ACV. It contains minerals and trace elements such as potassium, calcium and magnesium among others that are necessary to keep you healthy. Despite the fact that ACV is commonly known for assisting with weight loss, it also reduces cellulite effectively when taken orally because it increases the circulation of blood. In order to reduce cellulite, drink two tablespoons of ACV and then take a lot of water. If you are not comfortable with the taste, you can add 8 ounces of water to the ACV and one teaspoon of honey to make it sweet.\nBy increasing the intake of vegetables and fruits, you will increase blood circulation, which will lead to reduced cellulite formation and reduced body weight. You should not necessarily deviate from your regular diet, rather you should incorporate fresh vegetables, fruits like bananas, berries, bran, oranges and foods rich in fiber like oats and asparagus into it. You should also drink a lot of water and abstain from fats, sugar, alcohol and caffeine.\n4. Apply Natural Creams\nCreams are considered natural home remedies. Applying such creams on the areas affected by cellulite is a safe method of getting rid of cellulite. One of the ingredients included in most natural creams is caffeine. You can however make your own natural cream if you have coffee grounds close to your home. All you need to do is prepare a mixture of ground coffee powder with vegetable oil. You can then apply the mixture on the body parts that have been affected.\nThese four effective ways to get rid of cellulite listed above can be very helpful in your battling with cellulite. Using these methods will save you money that you would take to a practitioner. With the cellulite treated, you will gain back your confidence and you can comfortably wear some clothes such as mini-skirts, shorts and bikinis among others that flaunt your beauty.\nKarina is a freelance writer who loves to share tips to help people live healthily.

        "title": "The President's New Deal - Inside INdiana Business",
        "raw_content": "The President's New Deal\nBy Kevin Christ, Associate Professor of Economics, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology\nAny deal that is premised upon a lie should immediately draw skepticism. In announcing a new trade deal with Mexico, President Trump perpetuated the lie that the North American Free Trade Agreement has been costly for the United States. In fact, it has been a boon for the U.S.\nTo say this is not to deny the reality that certain segments of our population have been hurt by the deal. It only means that on the whole, NAFTA has been very good for the U.S. The chief reason the lie persists is that those who have prospered most from trade deals like NAFTA, which is the vast majority of Americans, have been unwise in their stingy refusal to use some of the great bounty that has accrued to our country because of globalization to offset the negative effects on those who were most vulnerable to the forces of international competition.\nWhen the President said the United States \"was hurt very badly by NAFTA for many years\" he may have been speaking for that subset of our population that has been hurt, but he contradicted a vast body of economic research and the personal experiences of most Americans who today enjoy a wider variety of goods at lower prices than would have been possible without deals like NAFTA.\nRecent research on this issue is clear. In 2015, Lorenzo Caliendo and Fernando Parro of Yale and Johns Hopkins, respectively, concluded that NAFTA contributed an overall welfare gain to the U.S. of 0.08 percent of Gross Domestic Product - not a huge number, but a positive effect, driven by efficiency improvements and terms of trade gains. The later of these effects means that NAFTA drove down the prices of things we like to import. That does not hurt us badly.\nIn 2016, Shushanik Kakobyan and John McLaren, of the International Monetary Fund and the University of Virginia, respectively, found that on the whole NAFTA had not had much of an impact on U.S. workers. The exception is certain important pockets of workers for whom the lowered import barriers resulting from NAFTA did seem to have lowered wage growth below what it would have been without NAFTA. This was particularly true for blue-collar workers, and in certain parts of the country like Georgia, the Carolinas, and Indiana.\nIn 2017, Brad Delong of the University of California - Berkeley note that NAFTA did cause some job losses, but those losses were, in reality, a small matter in our very large economy. During the NAFTA era, we've created far more jobs than NAFTA erased. Many other economists have reached the same conclusion.\nIn 2017, Dani Rodrik, a respected Harvard trade economist and a vocal critic of the way globalization has worked, said \"there is no way you can hold NAFTA responsible for employment de-industrialization in the U.S. or expect that a \u2018better\u2019 deal with Mexico will bring those jobs back.\"\nWhich brings us back to the president's new trade deal. Any trade deal that emphasizes local content rules, as this one appears to do, is mostly going to raise the domestic price of things we import. Ironically, this will increase the incentive for low-cost producers elsewhere in the world to find ways to get around the rules.\nThe key point to remember when you hear that NAFTA has hurt us is that economists never claimed that such deals would help everyone. They only claimed, with strong theoretical and empirical evidence, that on the whole it would be good for us. And on the whole, it has been.\nIt is not the fault of NAFTA (or other trade deals) that while we have allowed the benefits of free trade to accrue most fully to the wealthiest and most educated in our society, we've allowed our infrastructure and public schools to crumble, and our health care system to evolve into a costly and confusing mess.\nIn 1993, when NAFTA took effect, economists knew that there would be adverse effects on certain segments of the population. Rather than perpetuating the lie that deals like NAFTA are the primary source of our problems, the question we should be asking right now is why didn\u2019t we plan better to mitigate the effects of the changes brought on by globalization and technological change? Over the past 30 years, trade deals like NAFTA helped ensure that we certainly were a wealthy enough society to do so. We just chose not to.\nKevin Christ is an associate professor of economics at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.",

Our mortgage team will enjoy a great new work environment and with more room to interact with members, realtors, and builders.\"\n3Rivers has tapped local companies Bona Vita Architecture and Weigand Construction for the building's design and construction management. The new location is expected to open in the summer of 2019.",

        "title": "QUICK QUESTIONS WITH Patrick Brown |",
        "raw_content": "QUICK QUESTIONS WITH Patrick Brown\nPosted by Tommie On June 21, 2011\nWHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS YOUR CONNECTION TO COMICS?\nI\u2019m Patrick Brown, and I\u2019m a writer-artist.\nWHAT COMIC ARE YOU WORKING ON RIGHT NOW?\nThe Cattle Raid of Cooley, my ongoing online adaptation of the ancient Irish epic T\u00e1in B\u00f3 C\u00faailnge, which has been running at a page a week since 2008 and is about half done.\nWHAT\u2019S THE BEST PART OF MAKING COMICS?\nBringing stories and characters to life out of your head.\nWHAT\u2019S THE WORST PART OF MAKING COMICS?\nThere\u2019s so little money in it for the amount of work that goes into it. I\u2019ve spoken to several jobbing illustrators who say they\u2019d love to make comics but can\u2019t afford to. For some reason, if you make a 30-page comic with five to seven drawings on each page and try and sell it for three quid, people will think that\u2019s a fortune. But make a print of a single drawing and sell it for a fiver, people will think that\u2019s perfectly reasonable. I don\u2019t get it.\nHOW DID YOU FIRST DISCOVER COMICS?\nI blame my grandfather, Alec Magill. He was a comics fan of a sort \u2013 used to subscribe to the Sunday Post from Scotland just for Oor Wullie and The Broons. When I was three the family moved to England for a few years for my dad\u2019s job. My granda used to post us a copy of the Beano and the Beezer every week.\nWHO IS THE BIGGEST INFLUENCE ON YOUR WORK?\nIt\u2019s probably not very obvious, but Herg\u00e9. Not in the style of drawing \u2013 although I did waste most of a decade trying to draw clear line, before realising that just wasn\u2019t me \u2013 but more in the way I set up scenes, choose angles and sequences. In terms of drawing style, Eddie Campbell, Donna Barr, Mick McMahon and children\u2019s illustrator Charles Keeping are probably the most significant.\nWHAT TOOLS OF THE TRADE DO YOU USE?\nI\u2019m a pen-and-paper man. I do use a graphics tablet for colouring and cleanup, but I can\u2019t get comfortable drawing with it. Some of my older comics were done in the traditional pencil, letter then ink fashion, but these days I don\u2019t pencil, I just go straight in with ink. I draw The Cattle Raid of Cooley with a red Bic fine ballpoint and a Pentel correction pen. I have a grid drawn in black marker dividing the page up into two, three and four tiers and columns \u2013 I trace the panel borders from that, and just start drawing, leaving room for dialogue which I add on the computer using a font made out of my best hand lettering. In other work I experiment with other tools \u2013 italic markers, half-dead permanent markers for grey tones, Pitt brush-pens. I\u2019ve tried brushes, but I have a heavy hand and that\u2019s not a good combination. Dip pens are very nice, but messy.\nWHAT IS THE SINGLE WORK OF WHICH YOU ARE MOST PROUD?\nI\u2019m proud of what I\u2019m doing on the Cattle Raid, but Rise at Sundown, my 24 hour comic from last October, may be better. My first children\u2019s story, done in full colour (markers, pastels and coloured pencils), and all executed in 24 hours. I was in the zone on that one. No idea how I managed to pull it off.\nNeil Gaiman gives good advice to writers, which can be adapted for whatever your chosen artform is. He says that if you want to be a writer, then write \u2013 don\u2019t think about writing, don\u2019t plan to write, just write \u2013 and finish what you start.\nWHAT IS THE WORST ADVICE YOU HAVE EVER RECEIVED?\nI\u2019ve received some spectacularly bad advice on my love life, but I don\u2019t think that\u2019s what you\u2019re asking. Another artist once advised me to look at the comics being published, and what kind of lines they use, and copy them, which is probably fairly decent advice if you\u2019re not as stubborn as I am. The drawing style used in most comics, based on black brush and pen lines and overlaid colour, is based on letterpress printing technology, which is obsolete. If you want to work in that style as an aesthetic choice, fine, but it\u2019s no longer obligatory, even in superhero comics. Look at what Fraser Irving or J H Williams are doing.\nWHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE CURRENT IRISH COMIC SCENE?\nI really enjoy being part of it. Making comics is a solitary pursuit, but events like 2D and all the others mitigate that, make it sociable, and make me feel a little less weird, and all the talented people I meet keep me on my toes. The internet\u2019s great for keeping in touch, too.\nWHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE HAPPEN IN IRISH COMICS IN THE NEAR FUTURE?\nMore creative ambition \u2013 the Great Irish Graphic Novel has yet to be created \u2013 and for Irish comics to find a larger audience.\nWHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE HAPPEN IN COMICS IN GENERAL IN THE NEAR FUTURE?\nNew routes of distribution. The direct market has got very narrow, and if we\u2019re to find new readers it\u2019ll probably have to be mostly outside the comic shops. Also more comics for children.\nWHAT WAS THE LAST COMIC THAT MADE AN IMPACT ON YOU?\nThe Wrong Place, a translated graphic novel by Belgian writer-artist Brecht Evens. It barely uses line and does wonderful things with colour and perspective to create a sense of place.\nFROM YOUR EXPERIENCE WHAT IS THE BEST ADVICE YOU COULD GIVE SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO START MAKING THEIR OWN COMICS? (And don\u2019t say DON\u2019T \ud83d\ude42 )\nSee Gaiman\u2019s advice on writing. But don\u2019t make comics your whole life. Live, and bring your experiences of life into your art. If you\u2019re an artist, try as many tools as you can til you find what suits you. And don\u2019t expect to get rich.\nIt\u2019s midsummer, and somehow, I have a cold.\nPatrick Brown is from Belfast, and puts most of his comics online at http://paddybrown.co.uk. He\u2019s responsible for a substantial part of the Irish Comics Wiki, and along with Andy Luke, runs a stall selling Irish small press comics at local arts markets.",

        "raw_content": "Three delays contributing to maternal deaths in Jamaica\nKINGSTON, Jamaica \u2014 Maternal mortality is still a problem in Jamaica, due, in large part, to three delays says maternal, neonatal and infant health (MNIH) rights advocate, Linnette Vassell.\nVassell , who was presenting at a workshop on 'Respectful Maternity Care: Midwives Do Care', hosted by The University of The West Indies School of Nursing, Mona (UWISON) and the WHO/PAHO Collaborating Centre for Nurses and Midwives in the Caribbean last month, said most maternal mortality deaths are preventable.\nIn her presentation on 'Respectful Care As A Human Rights Issue', Vassell identified the three delays to which the United Nations attributes maternal, neonatal and infant deaths as: \u201cDelay in seeking appropriate medical help for obstetric emergencies due to costs, poor education, gender inequality, poor access to information; delay in reaching an appropriate medical facility due to distance, poor infrastructure, transport challenges; delay in receiving adequate care due to staff shortage, unavailability of adequate facilities and supplies\u201d.\nAccording to a release, she also made reference to the 2017 death of a baby in Mavis Bank, St Andrew, after the mother went into premature labour and the father was unable to secure help from the police.\nThe seminar, which was attended mainly by midwives and nursing practitioners, aim to examine barriers to respectful care and identify ways to improve the quality of care given to pregnant families, the release said.\nThe focus was partially influenced by the WHO, whose mandate is for policymakers to acknowledge the sometimes poor quality of care experienced by women during facility-based childbirth, evidenced in disrespectful and abusive behaviours from health-care providers and other staff to the pregnant women and girls.",

The Yoshidas lived at Krause Avenue for 14 years, during which time six children were born: Yuki, Hideo, Chiyo, Michi, George, and Kiyoshi. Everyone in the family pitched in to help run the nursery, doing different chores to help grow the nursery\u2019s carnations, roses, snapdragons, cyclamens, mums, and sweetpeas. In 1937 the Yoshidas closed the nursery on Krause Avenue and took over the Takata Nursery at 10900 Edes Avenue in Oakland, next door to the Korematsu Nursery. The Yoshida Nursery on Edes Avenue once again grew cut-flowers but also added potted plants such as Easter lilies and ivy. When the Yoshida family was evacuated to Topaz, Utah during WWII, the nursery was left under the care of a Castlemont High School shop teacher. Certain that they would return soon, and confident in the shop teacher\u2019s intentions, the family left all of their belongings behind. Unfortunately the shop teacher turned out to be untrustworthy and his promises to look after the nursery and pay the mortgage were never carried out. The family was notified in Topaz that the bank had repossessed their property. After the war the family worked at Seabrook Farms in Pennsylvania before returning to California. Since they had lost everything they owned in Oakland the Yoshidas decided to start over in Southern California. They eventually opened a potted plant nursery in Los Angeles that operated until 1992.\nThe Yoshida family on Krause Ave., ca. 1929-1930.\nNobuji and Tame Yoshida with their 6 children at their Edes Ave. nursery, 1940.",

        "raw_content": "Humpday Update - Plottin'\nPhoto by Mary Villoso.\nWassup On The Daily fam,\nMy blog continues to be the most visited section of this website so I'm glad yall are tuning in! I haven't updated this blog in about 2 weeks but I'm here to catch you up on what I've been doing. March has been a great month.\nIn the beginning of March, I was preparing and practicing for the two shows I did here in Honolulu. My homegirl Jan Robancho (guitarist) had to practice for \"DA FREAKSHOW,\" my college's annual student talent show. Its been held every year for the past 11 years at the historic Hawaii Theatre. The show was held on Tuesday, March 22nd. It was my third and final time performing there as a college student. To be honest, it was emotional and iconic for me because I really started taking music more seriously after I performed there the first time in 2013, and I've performed every year since then. Although I didn't win any prizes, my partner and I got good reviews and everyone digged the whole show. I'm really satisfied with our performance and the work we put in.\nThe weekend before DA FREAKSHOW, I did a short performance at Club Rende Vuu for the March Mayhem event. The event was a Hip Hop showcase put together by IDELIVERENT and RUDEBOYRADIO. There were hella dope rappers on the set and I look forward to working with more local rappers. Some of the line up included Aktion and AliCat. Teamwork makes the dream work!\nThis past week I had a photo shoot with my home girl Mary Villoso, hit her up if you need some photography work for your portfolio, website, cover letter, etc! We still got one more shoot scheduled so Ima hold off on sharing all the shots. You can check out my Instagram (@JEHZANEXCLUSIVE) to see some of em though.\nAnyways, Ima share a little bit more about my plans for creating an EP. But it's definitely gonna start rolling this year. Also, check out my Team Backpack Audition video!\nFriday Feature - The Zendeavors\nLet me just start by saying that On-The-Daily is always going to be a Hip Hop blog. But to be honest folks, I\u2019m on spring break and for some reason, spring break just reminds me of white boys and rock music. When I was in junior high, around the early 2000s, there was an explosion of alternative and punk rock music. That era solidified many artists and bands under the umbrella of the rock genre - Green Day and Blink 182 just to name a few. Even as \u201chip-hop heads,\u201d we can\u2019t deny that blending and collaborating between genres is crucial in expanding the culture...and it\u2019s damn right creative (remember Jay-Z\u2019s and Linkin Park collab?).\nFrom One Direction to Maroon 5, there\u2019s something about a group of guys singing that seems to popularize with the public. But The Zendeavors are not popular, you\u2019ve probably never heard of them; or even if you had, it was probably at a local party in Portland. Point is, you should check these guys out.\nOddly enough, I met the The Zendeavors\u2019 drummer, Jason Miller, at my cousin\u2019s wedding here on Oahu last Fall. We got to talking music, he told me he was in a band, I said I was a rapper and a blogger, and the rest is history...I\u2019ve wanted to expand the type of artists I feature while still keeping it Hip Hop-themed; so it worked well because this group actually credits some of their production elements to Hip Hop and Rap. \u201cOur goal is to create a music that has never been heard before. Hip hop is one of our many influences but we are more rooted in rock/folk punk. What we take from hip hop in particular are the soundscapes, grooves, and the attention to lyricism that exists at a higher level in hip hop than other music that we hear,\u201d said The Zendeavors.\nRegardless of your music preference, I think anyone can find at least one song they might like off the band\u2019s latest self-titled EP. The project took roughly 4 years to put together, and they are proud to have released it. As a Hip Hop artist and fan, I gotta say that \u201cSunday Drug\u201d is probably my favorite. It keeps a steady base and snare foundation with clever strums on the guitar with smooth vocals from lead guitarist, Andrew Rogers. The Zendeavors also includes bass player, Andrew Poletto, and yes, saxophonist Ted Schera. The group\u2019s four members all met at University of Oregon.\nIn a world where everybody wants to be trending, The Zendeavors are here to break trends, and reproduce elements in the most unique and weird ways. In almost every interview I have with artists, I like to ask them to describe their sound in one or two words. \u201cEclectic earmilk\u201d is what this group told me. I had to hear more.\nMy Favorite Hip Hop/Rap Albums of 2015\nIn no particular order, these were my favorite and most listened-to albums of 2015.\nFunk Volume is no more. Hopsin has left the label. Apparently Dizzy Wright is still being managed by Dame Ritter. On the bright side, Dizzy is on The Incredible True Story tour with Logic. I feel like I'm a new Dizzy fan, I didn't really start listening to him until last year. I've been hooked on him since. The Growing Process is relatable in its content with smooth vibes that Dizzy is known for. I had to have him on this list.\nI've been a fan of Logic for about 2 years now. I especially like The Incredible Story because it's different from what he's released before. I really respect the entire process it took, especially seeing all the actual instruments that were used to produce the songs. I watched nearly every vlog and media regarding this album and I'm glad to have it in my possession.\nI'm not gonna lie, I hated D-Pryde when he first came out. But I could never deny that the kid can spit. Since he came onto the rap scene as a teen, he has grown up into a seemingly different and much more mature young man...And tbh I think it's kinda sexy, especially cause he's a pinoy like me. As a fan, I also saw how challenging this project was because of he lost his mother to cancer around the same time Plan A was being created. Shouts out to Pryde.\nI discovered Asha'a Masterbait EP through Team Backpack's Soundcloud feed. It was released in the early Fall, a lot of the content and sound resonated with me as a fellow female artist as well as the college campus vibes. I'll be talking more about Asha in the VERY near future.",

        "raw_content": "You've heard the phrase \"Don't just stand there, do something\"? So oft repeated is this idiomatic expression that there's even a Christianized version of it. The kind of thing you'd see on a church marquee: \"Don't just do something, stand there\". What do I do? What do I do?\nThe latter phrase in question is referring to the potential dichotomy of action versus inaction with reference to seeking after and following God's will. And I would like to say that the phrase God helps those who help themselves is nowhere to be found in the Bible. It should read God helps the helpless who know they're helpless and want His help.\nWhat does the Bible say about such things? Well, first of all, someone who wants to know God's will for their life is already headed in the right direction. That desire doesn't come from anywhere but Him.\n\"Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, Thou stillest them.\" (Psalm 89:9)\nAny activity--or inactivity for that matter--that arises out of torment, worry or pressure is more than likely going to lead you away from the path on which God wants you. And it will end up being just that: mere activity. This, I think would be one of the main reasons that God calls us to wait upon Him. The devil is notorious at pressuring people to act in accordance with some fear, real or imagined. If there is uncertainty regarding any decision, large or small, that you have to make, you gotta know that there is spiritual warfare going on regarding the outcome. Moses told the Israelites to \"fear not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will shew to you to day\" (Exodus 14:13 emphasis mine). The next verse says \"The Lord shall fight for you\".\n\"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.\" (Isaiah 40:31)\nThis verse has its own dichotomy. Or so it would seem. While the first part says to wait, the second part talks about walking and running. Alright! Now we're getting somewhere. But what about the fear and indecision? May I suggest 1 John 4:18? \"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He (or she) that fears is not made perfect in love.\" God is a stickler for pure motives. I would venture to say, that if we don't realize, fully realize the strong fact that God loves us and are able to grasp hold of this reality, then we probably shouldn't do anything. Because anything we do is not based on the most stable reality of existence: God loves me. Matthew 9, verse 23: \"All things are possible to [them] that believe\" this fact.\nThis is why Paul could say that he \"pressed toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:14). The next verse reads \"Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded\". Paul had been made \"perfect in love\", as it says in the previous paragraph. God can do something with the man, the woman who knows God loves them. This is spiritual perfection.\nNow, moving forward, consider this statement of Paul's: \"All things are lawful (possible) unto me, but all things are not expedient\" (1 Corinthians 6:12) What I think he's saying here is, while he may feel this extraordinary liberty to go and do whatever he thought he should because he knew the love of God, he tempered that liberty by realizing that not all activity will lead to what God wanted to do in his life with reference to the world at large. This is another reason for waiting. When you know that God loves you, you're more sensitive to His will and consequently, you don't want to displease Him by doing your own thing. Even though you know that God loves you in spite of any disobedience.\nThis truly is the happy medium. When one realizes that God loves them, they end up walking in the will of God naturally, easily. \"The steps of a good man (or woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delighteth in [their] way.\" (Psalm 37:23) And then, I suppose that this would be the answer to both statements. Don't just stand there do something! Don't just do something, stand there! How 'bout we not do anything (standing, sitting, running, jumping, waiting, whatever, etc.), anything at all, until we realize that God loves us?\nIn closing, a quick caveat: \"As free, and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.\" (1 Peter 2:16)\ncertainty, Christianity, God, Jesus, love, obedience, predestiation, will\nSep 26 Knowing All the Words (How to Know part 1)\nApr 1 Held in Abeyance (How to Know part 3)",

        "raw_content": "by journauto on Friday, September 2 nd, 2011 in Automotive, News, Press release, Racing, Rally, Targa Newfoundland\nIt is finally official! This Keenan and that Kia are headed to the Rock along with my fellow Autonet.ca journalist and CTCC driver Jacques Deshaies. And, beginning next week, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook and, of course, Autonet.ca.\nI\u2019ll post again when I have some links for you to follow our progress day by day. I\u2019ve even signed up for a Twitter account that I hope to send updates from from right inside the action!\nThis is one event worth staying tuned in for. Check out the full press release after the jump\u2026\nKia Canada participating in 2011 Targa Newfoundland Rally, unveils new national partnership with MADD Canada\nMississauga, ON, September 2, 2011 \u2013 Kia Canada is participating, for the second year in a row, in the Targa Newfoundland rally and putting MADD Canada in the driver\u2019s seat by sponsoring their school assembly program implemented to reduce impaired driving among youth.\nFor the occasion, a race-prepped Kia Forte Koup donated by Kia Canada will be driven by a team of two members from Autonet.ca: pro-driver Jacques Deshaies will be at the wheel and Shaun Keenan as co-pilot. Both will represent team \u201cDesignated Drivers,\u201d racing under number \u201c99\u201d which references the year in which Kia Canada was established.\nFor the 2011 edition, the team is racing with the goal of promoting their partner, MADD Canada, thus raising awareness of the dangers of impaired driving and reinforcing the need to always drive responsibly.\nTo reinforce this message the Kia Koup has been specially wrapped to debut its \u201cI Pledge to drive safe and sober\u201d campaign. With every stop during the rally, spawning across wide sections of Newfoundland, local youths will be exposed to the cars and drivers and will be encouraged to pledge to this important cause by signing the Koup race car.\nTeens and young adults are at particularly high risk for impaired driving. Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among 15- to 25-year-olds and alcohol is a factor in 45% of those crashes. The combination of drugs and driving is also a major concern; Canadian youth between the ages of 14 and 25 have one of the highest rates of cannabis use in the world.\n\u201cKia Canada is excited to renew its participation with Targa Newfoundland and to have pro driver Jacques Deshaies and Shaun Keenan represent as team \u2018Designated Drivers\u201d said Maria Soklis, Vice President and Chief Operating Officer (COO) Kia Canada Inc. \u201cAs an automotive company, Kia is proud to support MADD Canada in their quest to educate Canadians on the importance of driving responsibly.\u201d\nAs the new Presenting Sponsor of the 2011-2012 School Assembly Program, Kia Canada Inc. is also donating the use of eight vehicles to MADD Canada: four vehicles will be dedicated for use by field representatives who travel from school to school to deliver the program. The remaining four vehicles will be used by Chapters across the country to promote local activities and events. All vehicles will be adorned with MADD Canada\u2019s logo and messaging for maximum visibility and awareness.\nIn addition, each vehicle will be wrapped in the \u201cI Pledge\u201d special finish similar to the Kia Koup race car which will allow students to sign the vehicle as a way of showing their commitment to never driving under the influence.\n\u201cKia Canada Inc. is making an impact,\u201d said MADD Canada National President Denise Dubyk. \u201cWith Kia\u2019s assistance, we will deliver our important message to more than one million students across this country, helping them to understand the dangers of impaired driving and reinforcing the need to always drive responsibly. It\u2019s a message that will save lives.\u201d\nAfter competing in the Targa rally, the vehicle will tour the vast majority of auto shows in Canada and will be seen at the Kia Canada display for the 2012 auto show circuit.\nKia was among the earliest corporate supporters of Targa, fielding a then-new Kia Rio for the media team of auto writer Bob English and local radio personality Ken Ash in the inaugural Targa Newfoundland in 2002. Over the next three years, Kia cars won class honours for the company several times.\nKia Canada Inc. (www.kia.ca \u2013 www.facebook.com/kiacanada), a maker of quality vehicles for the young-at-heart and a subsidiary of Kia Motors Corporation (KMC) in Korea, was founded in 1999. It sells and services high-quality class-leading vehicles like the Soul, Forte and Sorento through its network of 172 dealers nationwide. Kia Canada Inc. employs 141 people in its Mississauga, Ontario headquarters and four regional offices across Canada. Kia Motors Corporation continues to showcase the company\u2019s global commitment to surpassing customer expectations through continuous automotive innovation.\nMADD Canada (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) is a national, charitable organization that is committed to stopping impaired driving and supporting the victims of this violent crime. With volunteer-driven groups in more than 100 communities across Canada, MADD Canada aims to offer support services to victims, heighten awareness of the dangers of impaired driving and save lives and prevent injuries on our roads.\n\u2190 New Sube offers more confidence\nDiesel wagon an ultimate road-tripper \u2192\nhttp://www.journauto.com/blog/2011/09/02/targa-newfoundland-here-i-come\">",

After diving head first in to the automotive freelancing waters some seven-and-a-half years ago, it\u2019s finally time to come back up for some air. I haven\u2019t crossed over to the Dark Side (as in Public Relations), but I have come back to the land of full-time working zombies as the new Group Managing Editor for the Performance Publications Group, publishers of PRN Ignition and Performance Auto & Sound magazines in Toronto.\nIt\u2019s a pretty big deal and I\u2019m now in charge of a whole lot of editorial content for the mags, their companion Web sites (www.prnmag.com and www.pasmag.com) as well as numerous digital projects and custom publications like the 2012 Honda Indy Toronto official souvenir program, for example.\nDuring most of the past decade, I have worked as a freelance contributor to Sun Media writing a bi-weekly tuning lifestyle column called \u201cMod Squad\u201d and also contributing new OEM car reviews and previews, live auto show coverage, photos and other special features to AutoNet.ca and other media and communications clients. Prior to this, I was the Senior Editor at Toronto-based Modified and Modified Luxury & Exotics magazines for two-and-a-half years. But, I actually got my start in the automotive media way back when as the Performance Publications Group\u2019s full-time Editor for Performance Auto & Sound several years before that.\nThis year has a been a roller-coaster ride to say the least. And, since my wife and I are just weeks away from the birth of our first son, things are about to go all inverted, sideways and in reverse all at the same time. Talk about being thrown into several fires at once!\nThough challenging and an immense change from my habitual day-to-day freelancing activities, my new work arrangement (effective as of two weeks ago) doesn\u2019t really scare me all that much. Perhaps it\u2019s because I\u2019m an experienced track and road test driver, accomplished Targa Newfoundland Rally co-pilot, award-winning photographer, accredited member of the automotive press and long-standing member of the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada; things will surely fall into place.\nOn the flip-side, I wouldn\u2019t even know where to begin to tell you what a journey it has been to have a child. My intro article on the 2011 Targa Newfoundland rally delves into it briefly. Suffice to say even the best laid plans can turn awry as I have discovered on the emotional roller-coaster ride my wife Lisa and I have been on since August 2010 when we lost our first unborn child in a freak accident. I digress, but I\u2019ve been busy setting up both my new office and the baby\u2019s nursery at the same time and loving every minute of it.\nThe challenges ahead of me at work and at home are great, but I welcome them wholeheartedly and promise to always do my best. I\u2019ll continue to update my blog as frequently as possible and, hopefully, there will be a wealth of cool new content to share here too. Stay connected with PRN and PAS on Facebook and don\u2019t forget to follow @prnmag and @pasmag on Twitter for the most up-to-date info.\nTags:Group Managing Editor Performance Publications\n\u2190 Porsche Boxster S Test\nTested: 2013 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible \u2192\nhttp://www.journauto.com/blog/2012/07/15/back-at-performance-publications\">",

        "raw_content": "Place of Birth Coe Hill, Ontario\nTrade / Calling Photographer\nReligion Brethren\nBranch Royal Air Force (Canada)\nBuried At Clydesdale United Church Cemetery, Chandos Township, Ontario\nIrish, Charles Asa\nAccording to his delayed birth record, Charles Asa Irish was born on 23 July 1900 in Coe Hill, Ontario. His father Charles Eldridge Irish was from the Brighton-Colborne area of Ontario while his mother Agnes Fortune Trotter was from Chandos or Clydesdale, small communities near Coe Hill. The couple married on 27 March 1893 in Chandos and were to farm in the area between Chandos and Coe Hill, likely near Rose Island. Charles was also a minister in the Brethren faith. Other known children born to the family were James Stanton (b 1896), George Elridge (b 1897), John Raymond (b 1899) and Annie Ellen (b 1910).\nAlthough Asa\u2019s WW1 service record with the Royal Air Force is not available, given his service number of 270676 it is likely that he attested in Winnipeg or Toronto on 10 September 1918. His Kenora, Ontario Legion application card gives his date of joining as April 1915 in Winnipeg but given his age (he would have been 14) it is unlikely. According to the application card he was discharged from service in November of 1918 in Winnipeg.\nThe 1921 census found Asa living in West Kildonan, Manitoba, now part of Winnipeg, where he was lodging with the Alfred Martin family and working as a cook. On 5 October 1934, in Winnipeg, Asa married Annie Ellen Dubenski. Born in Kenora, Ontario in 1912, Annie was the daughter of Polish immigrant Basil William Dubenski and Ukrainian immigrant Alexandra Ellen Kenish. Asa and Annie were to make Kenora their home where Asa\u2019s occupation was given as cook on the 1935 Voters list. He joined the Kenora Branch of the Canadian Legion in 1939. It appears that the marriage disintegrated, with Asa returning to the Coe Hill/Apsley area where he worked as a chef, also listed as operating a restaurant in Coe Hill in the 1965 Voters list. It is not known if the couple had any children. Annie lived for a while in Fort William, Ontario and then later in Kingston, Ontario. She died in 1986 and is interred in the Lake of the Woods Cemetery in Kenora.\nAsa died in 1985 and is interred in the Clydesdale United Church Cemetery located between Chandos and Coe Hill. He was predeceased by his mother (1922), his father (1938), and his brothers George (1971), Raymond (1973), and James (1980). All are interred in the Clydesdale cemetery.\nAsa\u2019s brother James signed his recruitment papers in Kingston, Ontario on 2 March 1918. That April he was hospitalized in Kingston for close to 3 weeks with mumps and then again in Halifax, Nova Scotia in August for 2 weeks with measles. He arrived in England on 9 September 1918 where he served with the 6th Reserve Battalion, hospitalized from late October to late November with influenza. James returned to Canada in August of 1919, discharged from service on the 26th. Asa\u2019s brother George signed his recruitment papers with the 1st Depot Battalion Eastern Ontario Regiment on 17 May 1918 in Barriefield, Ontario. The next day he was given a leave and then was struck off strength on return to Registrar\u2019s records on 9 September 1918.\ngravemarker photo: courtesy of Canadian Gravemarker Gallery",

(AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)\n\u201cWe don\u2019t know what is going to happen, but during next week Kavanaugh could be withdrawn.\u201d \u2013 David Katz, Attorney\nThe Senate Judiciary Committee hearing dedicated to giving both Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and the woman who accused him of sexual assault, Christine Blasey Ford, the opportunity to testify on their versions of the events in question is slated for Monday.\nFord recently gained national attention after disclosing she was the anonymous author behind the letter, released by Sen. Dianne Feinstein Friday, that alleged Kavanaugh committed sexual assault in the 80s. In the note, the Palo Alto University professor tells the harrowing story of a drunk teenage Kavanaugh locking her in a room with himself and his friend, pinning her to a bed, groping her over her clothes and covering her mouth when she attempted to scream for help.\nSince then, she has provided therapist notes and results from a polygraph test administered by a former FBI agent to the Washington Post to corroborate her account. Kavanaugh continues to \u201ccategorically and unequivocally\u201d deny the incident occurred.\nWith so many unprecedented factors at play, Attorney David Katz says it\u2019s hard to say for certain what will transpire from the hearing, which Ford has reportedly failed to confirm her attendance of. Host Chip Franklin invited Katz to speak on the show in order to get a clearer understanding of potential outcomes. According to him, Kavanaugh could be withdrawn from the running for Supreme Court justice as early as next week if things don\u2019t shift in his favor.",

        "raw_content": "Perhaps you've heard farmers say they are going to check on crops or walk the fields. The first question my non-farming friends ask is usually, \"Why?\" It's important to make sure the crops are maturing properly. Checking on them can also tell you if they are ready to be harvested.\nMy brother checking on one of his hay fields. We had to stop to check hay before we could go to dinner. He picks up the hay to see how dry it is.\nJust as you may go walk through the garden to see if your tomatoes are ready, farmers do the same thing for row crops (corn, soybeans, etc.). It's just a MUCH larger area than most gardens.\nAs far as the crops go, we are mostly hay farmers, so my brother tends to walk the hay fields once hay has been cut to check on it and make sure it's drying down properly.\nJust as soybeans should be about 13 percent moisture and corn about 15, hay should be pretty dry too. Wet hay can mold. That's bad!\nIt seems like the best way to make it rain in the summer is to cut hay. Never fails. That means you have to wait until it drys out again.\nHay season is long gone by now, but for a refresher course on what exactly it means to \"do hay\", click here to check out a post I wrote earlier this summer.\nBack to the corn and soybeans! Since corn and beans should be under 15 percent moisture, they will be brown. If you see farmers in a field of green corn with equipment, they may be chopping corn silage (more on that here).\nIf the corn is a higher moisture content, farmers can put it into a grain dryer to dry it down a bit. I had never seen one of these until a few years ago. They generally aren't as big as the grain bins themselves and are connected to them.\nA quick reminder to be careful on the roads this fall! Harvest has started in most areas. Long hours and trying to beat the bad weather means farmers are on a mission to get it done. In Indiana, we have been lucky to have a stretch of hot weather in the 70s and 80s the last few weeks. I'm definitely enjoying it! I'm not ready for summertime to be over, so I'm trying to soak up the sun as much as I can before it goes away and is replaced by snow haha.\nLabels: corn, harvest, hay, soybeans",

        "raw_content": "Upgrading Your Facility Not Only Makes You More Efficient - It Makes You More Money\nKlean Industries helps businesses become more profitable, sustainable and environmentally responsible by providing integrated clean-energy retrofits for commercial buildings and industrial facilities. By using new energy-efficient systems within our built environment we replace old and inefficient energy systems. In today's environment energy retrofitting is one of the most effective ways businesses can reduce their impact on the environment. A multitude of business owners and operators have engaged Klean to reduce their carbon footprint, limiting their organization's impact on the environment and reducing their overall business costs in the process. For every dollar invested in clean energy retrofits the end user can see on average a $6 dollars savings - do your retrofits now!\nOur Team has performed hundreds of lighting audits and retrofits with outstanding, real and measurable results. Some of our lighting retrofit projects are saving customers an average of 40% to 50% on their lighting-related energy bills. This translates to over $728,000 every year; $60,000 every month; and $2,000 each and every business day in some cases.\nKlean's Energy Retrofit Business Models\nKlean's unique retrofit process begins with a detailed energy audit and an assessment of a company's energy issues and infrastructure. Once the analysis is complete we proceed to project design and seek to capitalize on government incentives and grants for the improvements. Through a detailed project management system we efficiently handle contracting, installation and monitoring. The entire energy retrofit program utilizes proven and existing technologies, methods and techniques that have already been implemented throughout the retrofitting industry.\n1. Performance Contracting:\nPerformance contracting, also known as 'third party financing' or 'contract energy management', can be used to pay for measures to reduce energy and waste-disposal costs, or to recover materials.\nA third-party contractor designs, installs, finances and, if required, operates the cost-saving technology. The contractor is then paid according to the savings achieved - i.e. the performance.\n2. Energy Financing Districts (EFDs):\nThis mechanism enables local governments to raise money through the issuance of bonds to fund such energy projects.\nThe financing is repaid over a set number of years through a special tax or assessment on the property tax bill of only those property-owners who choose to participate in the program.\nExamples include: Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE), Sustainable Energy Financing, Special Tax Districts.\n3. Client/Consumer Financed\nTotal cost of the retrofit is financed by the customer.\nCustomer estimates that the upfront cost of the retrofit will be more than offset by future energy savings.\nKlean can help finance the entire energy retrofit project in return for a portion of the future savings in energy costs. The result is a triple-win situation: the client wins through immediate reductions in energy costs, the planet wins through a corresponding reduction in environmental impact, and Klean wins through its participation in establishing the energy savings program. Klean continues to be an cleantech innovator committed to providing the most comprehensive energy-efficient solutions available on the market today. If you think your business could benefit from our energy retrofitting services, we would be more than pleased to hear from you. Helping you and your company become more environmentally empowered and sustainable is what we do at Klean Industries.",

Few of the team members had any paddling experience and while the group was enthusiastic, no one knew what was needed to become a dragon boat team.\nWe had a volunteer coach, whose expertise was in canoeing and a manager who had some dragon boating experience, but pulling together the team of neophytes was proving a daunting task. One day, while these two individuals were having coffee in a Rossland shop, they were approached by a young woman who had overheard them talking about the team. She expressed interest in what they were doing and offered to help. As it turned out, the universe had delivered exactly the person the Robusters needed \u2013 a former member of the False Creek Women, a team that had been world champions during the nineties. Trish Ostlund became our coach, and for ten years she has worked tirelessly to transform each year\u2019s mixture of experienced and beginner paddlers into a coherent force, ready to take on the world. She has consistently provided the motivation and training that has taken the team beyond what any of us could have expected. Trish helps us become the best we can be.\nRobusters in each community develop their own winter training program, including workouts at the gym, use of an ergonometer (a machine that simulates the dragon boating stroke), snowshoeing, cardio classes (Zumba is a favourite) and other activities. Our coach has designed a progressive set of strength exercises to maintain and build fitness during the off season.\nContact a Robuster in your community to join us for any or all of these sessions.\nTraining takes place from Kay's place at Christina Lake. Please arrive 15 minutes early for our warm-up.\nWith the exception of any changes, which will be noted below, the following are our training times:\nTuesdays and Thursdays, 6pm",

        "raw_content": "July 10, 2016 scarlet Health, Weight Loss 0\nHow may obesity increase the risk of cancer? Many probable mechanisms have been proposed to expound how obesity may intensify the risks of some types of cancers.\nOverweight people habitually have chronic low-level inflammation, which contributes to damage of DNA that leads to cancer. Obese individuals are more prone to acquiring illnesses and disorders associated with chronic local inflammation than individuals having a healthy weight. Chronic local inflammation is known to be a risk factor for the particular type of cancers.\nFor instance, chronic local inflammation brought by gastroesophageal reflux disease which is also known as Barrett\u2019s esophagus is often due to esophageal adenocarcinoma.\nObesity is known as a risk factor for gallstones which is an illness categorized by chronic gallbladder inflammation, and some history of gallstones is a robust risk factor for gallbladder cancer.\nChronic ulcerative colitis, also a chronic inflammatory illness, and hepatitis, an illness associated with an inflammation of the liver are risk factors for diverse types of liver cancer.\nFat tissue or adipose tissue generates extra amounts of estrogen, high levels of which linked to higher risks of breast, ovarian, endometrial, and other types of cancers.\nOverweight people often have amplified blood levels of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1. This specific condition is specified as hyperinsulinemia or insulin resistance, leads the development of Diabetes Type 2. Increased levels of IGF-1 and insulin might stimulate the growth of colon, prostate, kidney and endometrial cancers.\nDoes losing weight or preventing weight gain lessen the risk of cancer?\nWith the ongoing studies of obesity and cancer risk, these studies are a bit hard to interpret because folks who prevent gaining weight or trying to lose weight may vary in other means from individuals who do not.\nHowever, when the suggestion from multiple observational studies is unfailing, the association is more expected to be genuine. Several observational studies give reliable evidence that individuals who have minor weight gain in adulthood have lesser risks of colon cancer, kidney cancer, and breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancers for premenopausal women.\nThere are a few studies that identify the possible connections between losing weight and cancer risk. They were able to recognize that is lesser risks of breast, endometrial, colon, and prostate cancers to those individuals who were working out to lose weight. However, these studies fail to assess whether the weight loss was planned or unplanned which possibly connects to underlying health problems.\nWhat\u2019s the level of risk of developing cancer to overweight or obese people?\nIt doesn\u2019t mean that if you are an overweight person, you are going to develop cancer. It\u2019s just that with obesity, there is a substantial risk of getting cancer than those people who have a healthy weight.\nExcess fat in the body does not just stay there, it\u2019s typically active, transporting signals to the other parts of the body.\nThese signs can command the cells in our body to divide more regularly, which can then lead to the development of cancer.\nHence, as much as possible maintain your weight on an average level. Be physically active, and eat nutritious meals and snacks.\nIs the case the same in children?\nNo. The connection between obesity and cancer is merely in adulthood. However, healthy body weight is vital for children too. Never take their weight for granted.\nThere is approximately one in five children who become obese before they start going to primary school. Obesity can start early in children, thus do not allow your children to consume junk foods or sugary drinks to avoid gaining much weight.",

        "raw_content": "BURLINGTON, MA \u2013 November 18, 2014 \u2013 Continuing its tradition of giving back to the communities it serves, today Lahey Hospital & Medical Center announced the distribution of $40,000 in grants to local community-based organizations. These grants will allow the organizations to develop, expand or implement cutting-edge health care programming, education and training in the Lahey Hospital & Medical Center service area. The grant recipients include:\nLexington (MA) Youth & Family Services ($10,000): LYFS will develop or expand three key programs: A youth suicide prevention education and outreach program to ensure that suicidal and depressed teens have barrier-free access to trained counselors; a continuation of the Lexington Asian Mental Health Initiative which will implement parental workshops to deepen Asian parents\u2019 understanding of the unique needs of their children, while also working with Lexington schools to engage parents and teachers to better understand Asian culture; and the development of Parent Education Groups designed to increase the knowledge and skill of parents as they respond to the emotional and psychological needs of their children.\nREACH Beyond Domestic Violence, Waltham, MA ($10,000): Funding will support REACH\u2019s Civilian Domestic Violence Advocate (CDVA) program, which helps police understand the dynamics of abusive relationships, the lasting impact of trauma and why a victim may be ambivalent about leaving an abuser or involving law enforcement. CDVA will continue to provide stabilizing services to help victims achieve long-term safety, self-sufficiency and participation in society through support groups, legal advocacy, child and adolescent therapy and shelter.\nYMCA of the Metro North, Peabody, MA ($10,000): The Y will implement free LIVESTRONG programming to cancer survivors and their families throughout the greater Peabody area. The program will empower adult cancer survivors to improve functional capacity and increase their quality of life through organized group fitness and strength classes led by specially trained YMCA instructors. The program will also implement peer-to-peer support groups, which will help build supportive relationships, reduce stress and create positive interactions among cancer survivors.\nTown of Bedford (MA) Board of Public Health ($5,000): Funds allocated to train and certify a town employee as a Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) instructor. This training will enable the instructor to acquire the basic skills and knowledge to respond to individuals in mental health distress. Following the training, the instructor will provide basic MHFA training to 60 town staff and community partners in the Bedford Board of Public Health, Public Schools, Youth & Family Services, Recreation, Housing Authority and local houses of worship.\nBillerica (MA) Council on Aging ($5,000): BCA will use the funds to expand elder health education and wellness activities, including fitness classes like Cardio Boost, T\u2019ai Chi, and Zumba Gold. These classes will target the underserved population of seniors, minimize recurring hospitalizations and increase the number of seniors who achieve positive health milestones.\n\u201cAt Lahey Hospital & Medical Center, we take great pride in our willingness to listen, assess and act upon the demonstrated needs of the many communities we serve,\u201d said Gerald MacKillop, director of community relations for Lahey Health. \u201cThrough our regular community health needs assessments and grants like these, we are delivering on our promise to support local organizations as they implement thoughtful, strategic programs that will improve the health and well-being of our area residents.\u201d\nFor more information about Lahey Health, including lists of services and physicians as well as what separates it from other health care systems, visit www.LaheyHealth.org, follow the Lahey Health Twitter feed or become a fan on Facebook.\nLahey Health offers nearly 1,000 locally based physicians providing clinical excellence and an exceptional patient experience in adult and pediatric primary care and every medical specialty, including kidney and liver transplantation, neurosurgery, cancer, cardiovascular and orthopedic medical and surgical care; local emergency and trauma care; urological surgery; chronic disease prevention and health management; and pediatric emergency, newborn and inpatient care provided in collaboration with Boston Children's Hospital physicians.",

        "raw_content": "Fifield Update: Two Federal District Courts Conclude That The Illinois Supreme Court Will Ultimately Reject Fifield's Two-Year Rule\nIn the last issue of The Fast Laner, we reported that the Illinois Court of Appeals, Third District, followed Fifield v. Premier Dealer Servs. and held that, in the absence of other consideration, continued at-will employment of less than two years was not sufficient consideration to support enforcement of a restrictive covenant. However, two federal district court judges in Illinois have recently expressed doubt that the Illinois Supreme Court would follow Fifield. First, in Bankers Life v Miller, Bankers Life sued seven former employees who began competing with it in alleged violation of their contracts and restrictive covenants. In denying the employees\u2019 motion to dismiss based upon the consideration rule in Fifield, Federal District Judge Manish Shah of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois opined that the Illinois Supreme Court would reject the Fifield consideration rule in favor of a more flexible approach. Days later, in Cumulus v Olson, Federal District Judge Billy McDade of the United States District Court for the Central District of Illinois granted a motion for a temporary restraining order against a former employee of a radio broadcasting station. The former employee, who had signed an agreement that included a 60 mile non-compete clause as well as a non-solicitation of customers provision, quit his employment after working twenty-one months and began working for a competitor. Judge McDade opined that the Illinois Supreme Court would not accept the two-year bright line consideration rule announced in Fifield and severely criticized the logic of the decision. Decisions of federal district courts are not binding on Illinois courts and Fifield remains applicable law for Illinois employers (despite the willingness of federal district judges in Illinois to reject it). This issue will not be settled until the Illinois Supreme Court decides the legal question, but it may not weigh in on this issue until at least one Illinois Appellate Court, as opposed to federal district courts, rejects Fifield, thus creating a split of opinion among Illinois Appellate Courts. In the meanwhile, employers who need enforceable restrictive covenant agreements to protect their business interests should consult with their employment counsel in order to, as much as possible, \"Fifield-proof\" such agreements.",

I had never been to Portugal before this and was really stunned by all of the beauty I encountered during that short time. A lot of people ask me how I can do these 36 hour or less trips since I practically spend more time traveling than I get to experience in the destination, but any chance I get to experience even just a little bit of a new place is worth it to me. It gives me a burst of inspiration and shows me what else is out there in the world.\nLL March 30, 2016 at 4:34 PM\nThese photos are incredible: such an intense, foreboding place!\nCorbin Shouse March 30, 2016 at 11:12 PM\nAbsolutely incredible shots!

The colors are so rich and I would love to go here someday.\nMadeline Hall March 31, 2016 at 3:28 PM\nSo beautiful Alice! I grew up traveling with my mom in similar spouts of travel (36 hours or less) because she was a flight attendant. In high school for the weekend we went to Rome and Dublin and I was literally there for less than 24 hours. But! It was so worth it--like you said! Any chance to experience another country or city, even for a short time, is well worth it in my opinion. : )\nVickie April 1, 2016 at 7:13 AM\nP.A.

        "raw_content": "Lieutenant Governor of the United States Virgin Islands, Osbert Potter\nIt has been just over one year since Hurricanes Irma and Maria struck the US Virgin Islands (USVI) less than two weeks apart, devastating a nation that had not suffered a major hurricane since Marilyn ravaged the islands in 1995.\nNow, roughly 13 months later, Lieutenant Governor of the USVI, Osbert Potter, says the islands are on track to make a full recovery in a handful of years.\nPotter, who is up for reelection on November 6, says the cost of rebuilding will be in the vicinity of US $8.5 billion which will be furnished by the Federal Government of the United States.\nSome of the infrastructure on the islands are being rebuilt entirely from scratch, including six of the Territory\u2019s schools and the two hospitals on the islands.\nRelated article :Hurricane ravaged islands back in business, preparing for 2018 season\nRoads, which were severely damaged, are going to be rebuilt to national standards.\nThey also have plans to bury the country\u2019s power lines underground in order to avoid or minimise power outages in the event of another disaster. Power outages, Potter explains, is where a lot of time is lost in the response and recovery process.\nThe power issues in the three months following Irma and Maria also caused restlessness among those on the islands, which was the only significant social impact noted from the hurricanes. Potter says once generators kicked in and some of the power grid was restored, much of that uneasiness dissipated.\nPower was fully restored to the Territory by Christmas of 2017.\nSpeaking about community effort following the hurricanes, Potter says the whole community pitched in.\n\u201cOnce a hurricane comes through it\u2019s a different mindset. It becomes each one has got to help the other. And if you are in an area and you need help with whatever, the neighbours come and help you...It\u2019s interesting to see how it works because the mindset immediately after the hurricane, everyone was just trying to see how they can help. Once we get back to normal, it\u2019s not the same exact mindset. I guess it\u2019s just human nature.\u201d\nA view of cruise ships docked at the port of Charlotte Amalie, St Thomas, USVI.\nThe Territory\u2019s main economic stream - tourism - was severely impacted following Hurricanes Irma and Maria, According to the USVI\u2019s recovery report, published on October 25, 2018, there was a 78 percent decrease in hotel reservations in December 2017, compared to 2016.\nHowever, Potter says the outlook for the industry is positive.\nNow, more than 50 percent of the islands\u2019 accommodation inventory is back online and accepting guests while others rebuild and renovate.\nSome of the larger hotels - also some of the islands\u2019 major employers - which remain closed up to the time of this publication, include Marriott Frenchman\u2019s Reef which is set to reopen in early 2020 and The Ritz-Carlton on St. Thomas, which is expected to reopen in 2019.\nBy June 2018, airline arrivals were at 57 percent of what they were the year before, and Potter says new direct routes to the Territory from Atlanta, Boston and New York are expected soon.\nAsked about the greatest challenge facing the USVI now, Potter said \u201ctime\u201d.\n\u201cIt takes time to rebuild. We know what we want to do, we know how it\u2019s going to be financed. The design and engineering for a lot of the structures that have to be rebuilt is going to take some time. We have indicated to our public that you can expect the whole rebuild of the Territory to take any time from three to five years to actually get everything back to full normalcy.\u201d\nDominica back on track a year after Hurricane Maria\nLife slowly returns to Barbuda a year after Hurricane Irma\nAnniversary of Hurricane Irma: BVI achieving recovery milestones",

        "raw_content": "Verano's Dogs - Summoning The Hounds\nLabel : Metal Age Productions | Archive under death metal / grindcore\nBerto : Verano's Dogs is an Italian band playing old school death metal. They use a very loose-sounding sound, in which there is an interaction between a low grunt and slightly hysterical screaming vocals. What is striking is that the songs are quite short, between two and three minutes and in those songs there is little variation in the vocal lines, making it even in this short playing time a pretty monotonous affair. Also the drumming is not very innovative and as a whole this produces a rather uninspiring album, which is a mainly because both the vocals and the drumming are prominent on this album. What sounds good is the chugging bass guitar that makes its way through the songs. The album seems like a one-time recording of the frustration of the band and usually an emotion like frustration is a good breeding ground for extreme music, but there has to be some variation in the song writing. Nice is that the band stays close to the \u201cdog\u201d theme with songtitles like 'The Hound (A Lovecraft's Tale)', 'Rising Of The Necrotic Hound' and 'Bark At The Grave', although the best title must be 'Cannibalism And Agriculture' . Too bad that the best moments of the album are the song titles, because the music sounds quite likeable (which may not be the best description for a death metal album as well by the way).",

        "raw_content": "Have you ever watched a movie where the woman puts a hold on life, takes off someplace exotic and starts all over? Sometimes, you may think that's what you'd love to do but you know it's close to impossible with everything going on in your life. I can't imagine how many times I've felt that way. Back in High School I only had one College that I wanted to go to. It was out in California and because it was so expensive and I couldn't imagine being that far away from my family, I never followed through. In honesty, that's always been in the back of mind with the word \"Regret\" follow by a question mark (?).\nI don't think the idea of starting over necessarily means a new change in location. It's just 'Change' in general. I've been needing this for quite some time. A lifestyle change so to speak. I've become stressed with certain parts of my life and I was reminded that this is the only life that I, Katie will ever have. That once it's over, the curtain will come down and we'll see the words, The End (thanks for playing).\nIt's easy for me to look around and find things that make me happy. It's even easier to live each day and find things for others to make them happy. The thing I don't do though is focus on what doesn't make me happy and try to eliminate that from my life. So, that's been my goal recently. One of my many stresses and something that I've been yearning to change is what I do day to day. I've felt that I need to make a change with work and so I have. It was a difficult decision to make. I thought about the consequences of my leaving my job and I also thought about if I had stayed. So, I'm moving on. This is a huge life changing event for me as I've spent the last 5 years in my life at the same place. It's a routine, which I bet everyone can agree is a hard thing to break.\nWe get so comfortable in our lives, whether it's work, relationships or lack of hobbies. We tend to get a little nervous when we want to remove or add something from our life. The uncertainty of what could happen leaves up thinking about the worst possible scenario so what do we do? We do nothing. We continue to live a life that may not be completely fulfilling to us because we're scared of change. It sure is a scary thing but how many beautiful things have happened from change? A lot if you stop to think about it.\nSo here I am sharing with you something that is scary yet exciting. Something that is making me want to jump out of my skin and scream because I'm so happy about what is waiting in my future. I've made a change and you know who it's for? Me. I finally did something for this girl right here.\nI hope that if you're in a situation, a rut let's say and you've been wanting to get out. Make a list of pro's and con's. Remember that this is the only life you get, as you. You need to live it how you want to. Don't let anyone tell you, that you can't do something. Don't let anyone try to alter the decision you're yearning to make. Look in the mirror and tell yourself \"I do deserve to be happy and I'm the only one that can make that happen.\"",

        "raw_content": "Home > New Year > Female Fashion: What to Wear on New Year's Eve?\nEveryone is different when it comes to fashion. Some people like full on glamour every day. Others prefer to dress down in jeans and a t-shirt. However New Year's Eve is the one day of the year when every woman should take advantage of having the chance to dress up.\nThis doesn\u2019t mean though that everyone has to go for the same glammed up style. Indeed there are plenty of styles on offer to suit every bodyshape and personality.\nEven if you don\u2019t like frills and feminine outfits you can still opt for a dress on New Year's Eve. A little black dress for example with killer boots is much more sexy than girly and will always be a show stopper. Plus, as the fashionistas say, there\u2019s a little black dress for everyone!\nIf you want something a little more glitzy you\u2019re in luck. Sequins are in at Christmas and New Year, no matter what the fashion trend is. Don\u2019t go overboard or you\u2019ll look like you\u2019re in a fancy dress costume! But the right number of sequins adds just enough New Years sparkle to a dress.\nLace can also be a big trend at this time of year and there are plenty of lacy dresses out there for the girl who likes to look feminine. Go for pretty as opposed to flashy and your outfit will go down a treat.\nFabric is very important in winter and opulent fabrics are often a big hit - so go for luxurious and sumptuous and you can\u2019t go wrong.\nIf you\u2019re really not a dress person then you can\u2019t go far wrong with a well cut suit. The key to getting a great suit though is the tailoring. A longer jacket works well at elongating the body while a pinched waist can give the illusion of an hour glass figure.\nAnother key trend of the season will be animal prints. Before you start thinking \u2018Bet Lynch\u2019 from Coronation Street the key is not to go over the top. Instead just add hints of print such as a print bag or scarf.\nThe other top colours for the winter will be red, purple and white. Keep reds rich and deep. Go for dark purple as opposed to lilacs or pinks and make sure your whites are bright and crisp. You don\u2019t have to wear a block colour you can just wear one item of clothing in that colour or you can even just use that colour for your accessories.\nThe best way to look good is to feel good so make sure you only wear what you feel comfortable in. It doesn\u2019t matter if something is bang on trend if you don\u2019t feel good in it then it\u2019s not going to work. If you\u2019re not into outlandish colours or styles then keep it simple and vice versa. And remember it\u2019s New Years Eve, you\u2019re supposed to be enjoying yourself! So go out there, put on whatever makes you feel good and have a fantastic night!",

I named it Racula. The reason for this is because when we give that emotion of feeling a name, we can address it. Make sense?\nResitence often follows some of my greatest ideas and over the past some of them have evaported into the ether. It's too bad because those ideas will then be executed by another human. It's just the way it is.\nOkay, so we aren't going to get into that too deeply here but I will tell you that when we name our fears and emotions they are brought to our level, in the human mind and we become aware that they are, in fact, not bigger than us. Simple, right?\nIt works and I do this. Almost immediately it becomes funny - well you know me, I'm always looking for a laugh, I am immediately put into a different frame of mind.\nNow it's in a smaller form and I can look at it as the powerful Human that I know I am. It will never stop happening. I go to pick up a drawing pad or create a program, put an article together and just before that, and while the idea is burning in my head, RACULA RESISTENCE.\nRacula, you are a pain in my butt.

        "raw_content": "The Impact of Fewer IRS Audits for 2013\nThe government\u2019s spending cuts or sequestration, which went into effect on March 1, 2013, has been taking a toll on the nation across the board. Many vital agencies are experiencing the financial difficulties associated with the government\u2019s budget cuts, which are reducing the agency\u2019s ability to function to the fullest potential. In particular, the sequester has forced the Internal Revenue Service (\u201cIRS\u201d or \u201cthe agency\u201d) into budget cuts of $600 million which has had a social and economic effect on the government, the IRS, and the taxpayer as fewer audits are being conducted.\nThe agency is responsible for tax collection. With fewer planned audits, Mark W. Everson, former head of the IRS, states the government is limiting the revenue that flows into its coffers. Revenue is an important component of the government operations. It is ironic that by trying to reduce spending, the government is in fact inhibiting itself from revenue inflow. Consequently, the reduction in collections is hurting the economy and the future aspirations of the government.\nThe sequester has a direct social and economic effect at the agency. The agency\u2019s employees have started to experience furloughs that began on May 24, 2013. If the government does not take the initiative to reduce or eliminate the spending cuts, it is reported that the IRS will have to start unpaid employee furloughs and will only be able to save by continuing the hiring freeze, reducing funding for grants and other expenditures, and cutting costs for travel, training, facilities, and supplies. The spending cuts are limiting the agency from performing to its highest potential. The limitation faced by the agency is preventing it from growing and providing more services for the government, economy, and American people.\nFor the American taxpayer, the forced budget cuts mean fewer tax audits. With the agency working with limited resources, it simply does not have the manpower to complete as many audits as in previous years. However, the agency claims that the spending cuts will not delay processing of individual income tax refunds but, on the other hand, the cuts will hamper the level of service provided. The agency warns taxpayers that it will be harder to get the IRS on the phone, and will take longer to get responses to taxpayer letters with fewer employees working. The decline in customer service and longer hold time will frustrate taxpayers who might have urgent matters and questions to resolve.\nThe sequester is having an impact on different stakeholders such as the government, IRS, and the taxpayer. The impact will be felt for many years into the future through reduced revenue, employee furloughs, fewer audits, and greater service delays.",

        "title": "When the Going Gets Tough: How Unhappy Franchisees Can Slow a Brand\u2019s Growth - Meg Schmitz",
        "raw_content": "Starting a franchise is a very exciting venture for a new franchisee. It could mean a new work-life balance, an escape from the mundane, and a chance to earn more money - all common reasons that explain why a gainfully employed person might abandon their day-to-day existence in favor of franchising.\nBut when a franchisee doesn\u2019t follow the playbook they are given - and they are all definitely given some form of a playbook that tells them exactly how to run the business - things may start to go south and sour that happiness and optimism. Extenuating factors are a risk for anyone in any business, of course, but either way, when a franchisee is unhappy, it can very quickly affect the rest of the brand.\nFranchise pros point to several different reasons as to why a franchisee might find themselves unsatisfied.\n\u201cThe number one reason why franchisees can become unhappy typically comes from not making the type of money they thought they would,\u201d 1851 Franchise Chief Brand Strategist Sean Fitzgerald said. \u201cThat seems to be the number one driver. This is where communication with a franchisor or franchisee is critical but equally critical is setting proper expectations in the sales process.\u201d\nBob Wagner, president of Wagner Franchising, a franchise consulting company, echoes this sentiment.\n\u201cI\u2019d think the biggest reason the franchisee is unhappy is that the franchisee\u2019s expectations are not set up from the beginning,\u201d he said. A franchisor, he noted, needs to set expectations upfront and be honest with the franchisee when talking about how long it might take to break even.\nFranchisees go into a franchise venture with a picture in their head about how the franchise is going to go, Fransmart founder and CEO Dan Rowe said in an email.\n\u201cNo one buys a franchise for a stack of contracts,\u201d he wrote. \u201cThey want what they think they are going to get from buying the franchise like revenue, profit, financial freedom, support, predictability. They want what the franchisor promised, and when they don\u2019t get this they can become unhappy. The more expectations that aren\u2019t being met the angrier and more frustrated they become.\u201d\nAn unhappy franchisee can have short and long-term effects on a business. Franchise experts agree that an unhappy franchisee might start to try doing things their own way - to detrimental results.\n\u201cWhen things aren\u2019t going the way they were told it was going to go they start to lose faith in the entire business system,\u201d Wagner said. \u201cSo then they start to do things outside the franchise system if they can. They don\u2019t follow the business system that the franchisor has in place and other things can start to go south.\u201d\nAn unhappy franchisee might also spread the word about their experience - and in a very bad way.\n\u201cExisting franchisees make or break brands,\u201d Rowe said in an email, adding that unhappy franchisees give bad references and warn others not to join. \u201cNow more than ever, with social media it is easy for an unhappy franchisee to make their points known.\u201d\nWhen an unhappy franchisee vents their frustration to other franchisees, it can cause \u201ca cancerous effect,\u201d 1851 Franchise publisher Nick Powills said.\n\u201cAn unhappy franchisee will do far more damage to an organization than people realize,\u201d Powills said. \u201cOnce they start becoming negative they are negative on everything. They will fight the system despite the fact that it\u2019s proven to work. They almost fight it to a point where they refuse to follow the system and it gets in this very dangerous negative spiral for a franchisee.\u201d\nUltimately, one of the major traits of a happy franchisee is someone who is willing to follow the tested and proven program. This will help prevent having an unhappy franchisee down the road.\n\u201cA good franchisor has already done proof of concept,\u201d independent franchise consultant Meg Schmitzsaid. \u201cThey know that it works. The challenge in the beginning is finding the right people who really want to wave that banner and go for it.\u201d\nTo find the right people, franchisors need to be very careful in their recruitment process.\n\u201cThere are certain personality types that do really well in franchising,\u201d Schmitz said, citing former athletes in particular. People with corporate backgrounds also do well in franchising, she said, because they appreciate a good mission statement.\nFitzgerald compared the franchisee recruitment process to the college recruitment process, and stressed the importance of investing time in finding the right partner.\n\u201cIf your franchise team is looking for the top candidates that\u2019s where it starts,\u201d he said. \u201cIt should be like college recruiting. The top colleges want the top students. Franchisors should look at it the same way and bring in people who are going to be not only good recruited candidates but also the right fit for the system.\u201d\nRead the full article on 1851 Franchise.",

        "raw_content": "Looking east from Felter Road\nLaguna School\nLaguna School was the first school constructed in the Milpitas area. It was built where Felter Road and Calaveras Road intersected. This made it easier for the students who lived on the ranches and farms for miles around to attend. According to Patricia Loomis' book, Milpitas, the Century of Little Cornfields 1852-1952, Laguna School was built in 1856 as a one room school 24 by 30 feet at a cost of $600. The school underwent many changes in its 70 year lifespan. The front cloakroom was added about 20 years after initial construction and the second outer siding was put on about the same time.\nIn the 1880s teachers who worked at Laguna School were Rosalie O'Brian, P. Henning, Miss Emma Watkins, George Kraft, T.W. Whitehurst, and Stella Herndon. The trustees included J.W. Greenfield, Alfred Felter (for whom the road is named), H. H. Flagg, and Michael Hughes, who had built the first wood frame house along Penitencia Creek on modern Main Street probably between modern Serra and Carlo Streets.\nWhen enrollment declined below the required minimum of five students, in 1943, the old school closed its doors. The last teacher there was Mrs. Naomi Pinard.\nIn 1949, Laguna School was sold for $575 to a nearby rancher, Mildred Beans. Mrs. Beans modified the building to use as a barn. It continued to be used as a barn and storage shed by subsequent owners until 2000.\nIn 2000, the Historical Society began efforts to move it to another location to prevent its demolition. However, the new owners, Mr. and Mrs. Hare, decided to keep the school and to restore it.\nView to the Northwest. Siding put on in 1880s can be clearly seen on the school proper.\nThis bookcase was originally located between the two front doors (one for girls and one for boys) and built in as part of the wall and floor. When the school was reinovated in the 1880s the bookcase and its section of floor were moved into the cloak room at front of the school and the two doors became a wider entry.\nNote the beaded wood boards used on the walls. The ceiling is about ten feet in height and is of the same beaded board. The narrow pine boards on the flooring are on top of older, wider flooring boards.\nThe school rests upon a foundation of large stones containing shell fossils.",

        "raw_content": "The Gibraltar of Greece\nMonemvasia (\u039c\u03bf\u03bd\u03b5\u03bc\u03b2\u03ac\u03c3\u03b9\u03b1) is located in the southeastern Peloponnese in the prefecture of Laconia, 400 meters from land having been separated from the mainland by an earthquake in 375 A.D. Its name derives from two Greek words, mone and emvassi, meaning \"single entrance\". It was called Malmsey by old English writers, Napoli de Malvasia by the Venetians and Malvoisie by the French.\nIt was founded by the Byzantines in the sixth century and shortly after it became an important port. It remained in Byzantine possession for almost seven hundred years until it was captured by the Franks in 1249 after a three year siege. However, it returned to Byzantine hands ten years later and became the chief port of the Despotate of Mystra.\nWhen the rest of the region was captured by the Turks in 1460, Monemvasia remained unharmed by placing itself under the control of the papacy (1460-1464) and later under the Venetians (1464-1540). In 1540 the Turks gained control of Monemvasia after the Venetians abandoned their garrison. Although Monemvasia experienced decline under Turkish control, it underwent a revival when it returned to Venetian hands between 1690 and 1715.\nIn the War of Independence, Monemvasia was the first of the major Turkish fortresses to fall after a four month siege in July 1821. On August 1st 1821, overcome by misery and illness the Turks agreed to surrender to Demetrios Ypsilantis.\nDuring World War II the New Zealand 6 Brigade numbering several thousand men was successfully evacuated on April 28th 1941 mainly from the causeway and the two piers. Soon after the Germans entered Monemvasia, which was not used as a defensive position but rather as a place for wounded soldiers to recover.\nToday a causeway links the mainland town of Yefira/New Monemvasia to Monemvasia or Kastro (castle). The Kastro is divided into a lower and an upper town. Many ruins of the original 800 houses and only four out of the original forty churches can be found in the lower town. Among them is the Church of the Elkomenos Christ (Christ Dragged), which is named after a famous icon of Christ given in 1700 to the church by Andreas Likinios, philosopher and chief physician to the ruler of Moldavia, Dimitirs Kandimir. The oldest church is St. Paul\u2019s, which was built in 956, and today houses the museum. Further on, towards the eastern edge of the lower town and closer to the sea is the whitewashed Our Lady of Hrisafittisa, which was built in the sixteenth century.\nHigh above, castle walls protect the upper town on the summit. There one can see the remains of Byzantine houses and public buildings and a vast cistern that ensured a water supply at times of siege. A fortified zigzag path from the upper town leads to the Fortress of Goulas on the summit overlooking the town. It is entered by a tunnel that still retains its ironbound gates. Among the ruins of houses and cisterns of the acropolis of the upper town stands St. Sophia, a Byzantine church founded by Andronikos II Paleologos on a plan similar to that of Daphni in Athens.\nLogo photo credit: \u0395\u03c5\u03b3\u03b5\u03bd\u03af\u03b1 \u0393\u03c1\u03b7\u03b3\u03bf\u03c1\u03ac\u03ba\u03b7\n\u00a9 2009 fishwaves",

Moreover, the price area of 1.1390/1.1338 remains a significant resistance zone. Therefore, there is a possibility that the EUR/USD pair will move downside and the structure of a fall does not look corrective. The trend is still below the 100 EMA for that the bearish outlook remains the same as long as the 100 EMA is headed to the downside. Thus, amid the previous events, the price is still moving between the levels of 1.1338 and 1.1253. If the EUR/USD pair fails to break through the resistance level of 1.1338, the market will decline further to 1.1253 as as the first target. This would suggest a bearish market because the RSI indicator is still in a negative spot and does not show any trend-reversal signs. The pair is expected to drop lower towards at least 1.1197 so as to test the daily support 2. On the contrary, if a breakout takes place at the resistance level of 1.1338, then this scenario may become invalidated.",

We refer to the A7 Sportback h-tron quattro.\nThe concept car has been revealed at the Los Angeles Auto Show. One first look at the model and you might draw the conclusion that nothing much differs from the conventional /powered one.\nWell it\u2019 time for you to know that magic takes place under the hood. That is because the A7 h-tron quattro concept is a a fuel cell hydrogen vehicle with a plug-in hybrid setup.\nWhen used in fuel cell mode, the Audi A7 h-tron quattro concept needs around 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of hydrogen for each 62 miles (100 km). As a comparison a 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of hydrogen equals 3.7 liters (one gallon) / 100 km. And great news don\u2019t stop here as a full refill takes just three minutes.\nSince speed is of great importance for all drivers, you might be pleased to know that the car rockets to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 7.9 seconds before hitting a top speed of 111.8 mph (180 km/h).\nAs far as weight goes the new concept has sure gained some. Thanks to all the hardware the new Audi weighs 1,950 kg (4,299 lbs).\nThis entry was posted in Audi, Auto Shows, Concept Cars, Videos and tagged A7 Sportback H-tron Quattro, Audi, Audi A7 Sportback H-tron Quattro, Los Angeles Auto Show, unveiled.

        "raw_content": "The Wild Parrots of Israel\nOn a number of occasions I\u2019ve seen these parrots (or rather parakeets) flying wild in Israel. Near the airport there is a flock of hundreds, my son saw some in Haifa, and I caught these pictures in Eilat.\nI thought they were perhaps escaped pets, though it seems they are a native bird that expanded it\u2019s range\u2026they like the coastal areas\u2026more tropical, wetter, and less cold in winter.\nWikipedia - The rose-ringed parakeet (Psittacula krameri), also known as the ring-necked parakeet, is a gregarious tropical Afro-Asian parakeet species that has an extremely large range\u2026. African rose-ringed parakeet (P. k. krameri): native to western Africa in Guinea, Senegal, and southern Mauritania, east to western Uganda and southern Sudan, Egypt. Resident among the Nile valley, it is sometimes seen on the north coast and Sinai. The African parakeet also started to breed in Israel in the 1980s and is considered an invasive species.\nThey\u2019re very cool to see when flocking, although quite nosy when nesting. I\u2019m not sure if they\u2019re also taken as pets, but they seem to be doing well in Israel (Tel Aviv, Lod, Haifa, and Eilat at least).\nThey like to be around Ramat Rachel, the kibbutz, up on the hill, as I was informed. I've seen them there and also saw them on Ibn Gevirol in Rehavia. Also I caught one flying through the trees in back of my apt. Must have been a trail, but we do have big tall pine trees around my area. Yes, they do produce a loud call when communicating to their mate. However, why do you call them \"parakeet\". I was told they were Parrots \u05ea\u05d5\u05bc\u05db\u05b4\u05bc\u05d9. Parakeets \u05ea\u05d5\u05bc\u05db\u05b4\u05bc\u05d9 \u05e7\u05b8\u05d8\u05b8\u05df are much much smaller, slightly larger than a canary. About Parakeets: http://animal-world.com/encyclo/birds/parakeets/parakeets.htm\nThey are quakers or monk parakeets. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monk_parakeet\nNo...you fail your bird identification...\"Unknown\"! They are Asiatic Parakeets aka Indian Ringnecks, Psittacula spp.\nThe Monks'\"Parakeet\" is actually a Conure from Latin America that has established itself in The US...There are quite a few flocks in Brooklyn NY!!\nHaha I just happened to see one today for the first time in Tsfat. Now I read just happen to see it here.\nYosef from the Galil April 12, 2016 8:31 AM\nHuge flocks like to pass through Nahariya annually. The sound can get quite loud, but it is not bothersome. they're sort of cute, actually.\nMerryl November 14, 2017 1:12 PM\nThey also call Ra'anana home.\nRaoul February 17, 2018 8:41 PM\nHave seen them often in Herzliya, usually in flocks, and eating flowers in the trees.\nRaoul July 03, 2018 12:04 PM\nI am seeing great numbers in Herzliya, and very noisingly nesting in one particular park.",

        "raw_content": "You could probably pinpoint the top traits of a rotten boss at the drop of a hat, right?\nEveryone\u2019s had one of those.\nThe arrogant show-off who takes credit for your hard work. The obsessive perfectionist who has to re-do everything you just did, twice. And then the one who\u2019s just plain mean. You can\u2019t change how they manage. But you can make sure you don\u2019t repeat their mistakes when you\u2019re in charge.\nSo what are the top traits of a great boss? It\u2019s not difficult to offer up a few surface-level suggestions.\nCheerful demeanor. Lets you leave early on Thursdays. Takes you to lunch when you achieve your goals.\nBut what about the things that really make a difference, that inspire employees to work harder, dream bigger and band together to drive a business to success?\nNaming those is a bigger challenge. Here\u2019s \u201cWhat\u2019s the most important characteristic of a great boss?\u201d\nWithout honesty, there\u2019s no trust. Without trust, what do you have? Honest communication helps navigate roadblocks, provides clear direction and allows employees to have better confidence in their leader and the company. Integrity should be included along with honesty, as those two traits go hand-in-hand.\nThe ability to mentor staff and provide resources\nManagers strive to hire employees who are already skilled in the requirements of their positions. Seldom does a manager need to teach employees how to do their jobs, but rather they are tasked with aligning employees with the company and its culture. That often includes how things are done in the position, specific to company processes. When a manager provides the coaching necessary for successful execution of their roles, employees are far more capable, more willing to seek help when necessary and better able to identify and correct errors and problems than if they\u2019re left to figure things out on their own.\nThe ability to motivate\nIt\u2019s important for a supervisor to be able to not only motivate teams to reach a productive outcome, but also to be able to motivate individual employees. That means they need to listen for what may interest their employees, effectively identify and capitalize on their strengths and partner with them to help them find opportunities for growth.\nA high EQ (emotional intelligence)\nIn today\u2019s transitioning workplace, having a high EQ is the most important trait of a good boss. Bosses must be able to discern between their own personal beliefs and the thoughts and beliefs of others, and other generations (boomers, Gen X, xennials, millennials and now Gen Z). This is ideal when it comes to leading and motivating staff to achieve, and directly ties into the psychology of goal attainment.\nEmployees need to trust their boss to have their best professional interests at heart (of course in combination with the best interests of the company). Bosses must trust their employees to make the best choices they know how to make, to ask questions when they are unsure and to have the best interests of the company at heart.\nThe willingness to deliver open and honest feedback\nAll of us have weaknesses and room for growth, but many will never recognize this unless it is brought to light by someone else. Too often, we are silent when we see room for growth in others, for fear of hurting someone\u2019s feelings. However, bosses are usually in the best place to see and speak to these weaknesses. It\u2019s always best that they share this information, and share it as soon as they see it, so their employees have the opportunity to grow.\nA great boss is someone who inspires their employees to be their best selves. They should be able to identify their employees\u2019 best qualities and bring them out. Additionally, they should pinpoint growth opportunities, share them in a constructive manner and help develop a plan for improvement.\nThe most important skill a leader can have today is self-awareness. This may seem simple, but just because someone has a title doesn\u2019t mean they intuitively know how to lead people. Leadership requires understanding that employees can be motivated differently, and that what personally drives them might not drive others. For example, a leader might love public recognition and, therefore, rewards employees in a public forum with crowds of people in attendance. It\u2019s important to recognize there may be folks on the team who prefer a much different approach. Perhaps an email to the CEO expressing their accomplishments \u2014 quiet, yet powerful. Leaders must remember everyone is motivated differently, and the decision to be engaged is in the heart, not the mind.\nThe willingness to learn what employees need\nWe all have two kinds of needs, practical and personal. Our practical needs are ways to track our progress and agree on a level of performance, while our personal needs are to feel valued, involved and supported. Any boss who understands this, and takes care of each employee\u2019s needs, will be a fantastic boss.\nGreat leaders are compassionate when praising success or addressing challenges. They know compassion is expressed verbally and non-verbally. They can sense the emotions going on around them. They understand that the demands on employees go beyond the organization. There is an awareness that every employee fulfills multiple roles inside and outside an organization. They realize each employee interaction can impact the work relationship. They understand that accountability can still be expected while maintaining a high level of compassion.\nFostering within yourself traits like these 10 can help strengthen your leadership skills and encourage your employees to do their best work.\nThat makes for a happier workforce and, ultimately, a more successful business. Everybody wins.",

        "raw_content": "'Twilight' And Movie Awards: The Love Story Continues\n'Breaking Dawn - Part 1' nabs both prizes it was nominated for: Movie of the Year and Best Kiss.\nUNIVERSAL CITY, California \u2014 \"The Twilight Saga\" might not have won the most awards at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards, but the fan-favorite series definitely came out on top.\n\"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1\" took home the two big Golden Popcorns it was up for: Movie of the Year and Best Kiss. That marks the fourth year in a row \"The Twilight Saga\" has won both awards, and its stars said they were flattered by the honor when we caught up with them on the red carpet.\n\"As we're wrapping up, to have so much love still and you gave us a four-peat, so thank you. That's something that not a lot of people can say,\" Jackson Rathbone told MTV News of the franchise's continued Movie Awards dominance.\nEven though it was pretty much a guarantee that \"Breaking Dawn - Part 1\" was going to take home both Golden Popcorns it was nominated for, it turns out that Kristen Stewart was still nervous about her Best Kiss acceptance speech. After she quickly smooched herself on the Gibson Amphitheatre stage, she came behind the curtain and, wearing a nervous smile, asked a rep, \"How was it? Was it OK?\"\nWe thought it was great! But we get a kick out of the fact that, not long after that, the \"Snow White and the Huntsman\" star changed from her sexy black heels into a pair of more comfortable Converse. Hey, at least she didn't show up wearing them this time!\nIt wouldn't be an awards show without us begging the castmembers for a tease of the next movie in the series. And since this is the last Movie Awards where we'll be able to do that, we wanted to make it count. Nikki Reed promised that fans have at least one awesome battle scene to look forward to in the final \"Twilight\" film.\n\"There was a pretty kick-ass battle sequence that I did with two of the other girls that I think should be pretty cool, if they leave it in there,\" she said. \"So I'm looking forward to that, 'cause we trained for it for a while.\"\nAnd this time, Stewart will get in on the vampire action as well.\n\"[We did] a little fight training. It was me and Ashley [Greene] and Kristen [Stewart], and we did this like three girls back-to-back thing where we beat up some huge dudes,\" Reed recalled. \"That's always fun.\"\nJaw-dropping, heart-pounding, gut-busting moments galore. See what went down at the 21st annual MTV Movie Awards!",

On Democracy Now!, Dr. Farmer addresses the U.S. influence in Haiti in the context of recent WikiLeaks disclosures of classified U.S. diplomatic cables that documented the United States supported recent elections, despite the exclusion of Haiti's most popular political group, the Famni Lavalas. The cables also documented that the United States also advocated behind the scenes to block an effort to raise the minimum wage in Haiti.

        "raw_content": "Why Do Ingredients Have To Be Heated For DIY Hair Recipes?\nHeating the ingredients that go into a hair conditioner, detangler or moisturizer helps to emulsify (mix) water and oil.\nNormally, as you already know, water-based substances and oils/butters don't mix. However, heat alone is not enough to cause the blends to mix and not \"split\" again afterwards.\nIn addition to the heat each one of my DIY Hair Recipes contains an \"emulsifying agent\" (the cationic compounds, BTMS or cetrimonium chloride or cetrmonium bromide) - that is a chemical that helps the water and the oil to blend.\nBut, heat and an emulsifier are again not enough to make the oil and water to mix without \"splitting\" again afterwards. The stirring motion also helps with the emulsification process.\nThink about it this way, if you make a cup of tea and add a solid block of sugar it might not completely melt if you don't stir. To dissolve the sugar you need: (1) a solvent called water, (2) heat, i.e. hot water, the sugar would not melt well in cold water and (3) stirring. It's pretty much the same deal deal with making conditioners and other hair products that combine oils and water-based inputs.\nIn addition, the heat kills any contaminants that might have been in the ingredients. Having any unwanted bodies in the formulation would make it rot faster.\nIn summary, to mix water and oils/butters you need:\n1. An emulsifying agent",

We recorded a version, but then re-visited the song a year later when the opportunity came about to use it as a Christmas song for charity. Here, you can see where the song ended up. We were fortunate enough to have the song performed live on GMTV on Christmas morning, with the wonderful kids from Shine Theatre Group.\n2 Over Christmas: This was a much smaller affair, originating in a school performance sung by a different pupil. Rob had to strip the song down to the bones and build it back up again \u2013 keeping some of the hooks. Even years later, this song still stands up well against modern productions.\n3 I Need You Here: After visiting the studios, Stephanie was inspired to write a song \u2013 but never having a day\u2019s training, had no idea how to go about it.

        "raw_content": "Online Casinos \u2013 Gambling for the Masses?\nIn the past, gambling has sometimes been perceived to be a pretty exclusive pastime - glitzy Vegas casinos draw in people eager to flash the cash, and the long established associations with Ascot are of gambling for the privileged few. Certainly, it is a lot easier to gamble if you have enough money not to worry about losing your bets. However, with the technology boom of recent years that has seen almost every company take its business online, it seems the gambling industry is keen to promote gambling for a mass market.\nIt\u2019s easy to see why the industry is using the internet to attract more customers \u2013 families that don\u2019t own a computer can make use of the wide number of internet cafes, internet enabled phones, and school facilities available, though the number of families without home access seems to be dwindling by the day. If reaching a mass market is what you\u2019re after, then you couldn\u2019t ask for a better tool than the internet to help you on your way.\nEqually, the nature of the internet means that online gambling can be much more easily accessible to a wider range of people. Take, for example, a busy nurse with a passion for casino games. Her job might keep her from visiting a real casino and indulging her passion, but with websites like River Belle online casino she can log on whenever she gets a spare minute at home and play for as long or as little as she likes. Online casinos have done particularly well out of the technology boom, and are particularly good at drawing in customers that are new to gambling as the format is more game like than things like betting and card games. Slot machines, for example, always prove popular with beginners, and online casinos have them in bucket loads.\nIndeed, if you want to find evidence of the internet providing gambling for the masses, you need look no further than online casinos. Designed to provide the most possible options for their customers, with games of varying difficulties and no experience necessary before you begin, online casinos have removed any exclusivity from gambling and have made it a global, easily accessible pastime.",

        "raw_content": "Glorious Early 20th-Century Japanese Ads for Beer, Smokes & Sake (1902-1954)\nin Art, History | February 25th, 2015 1 Comment\nEarlier this month, we featured advertisements from Japan's prewar Art Deco golden age, a period that shows off one facet of the country's rich graphic history. While all forms of Japanese design remain compelling today, any time or place would be hard pressed to compete with the world of Japan's pre-war print advertising. It has, especially for the modern Westerner, not just a visual novelty but a commercial novelty as well: as often as not, surviving examples glorify now-restricted addictive substances like alcohol and tobacco.\nAt Pink Tentacle (a completely safe-for-work page, believe it or not), you can find a roundup of Japanese print advertisements for products that tap into just such vices. Japan opened up to the world in a big way in the mid-to-late 19th century, and the country's acceptance (and subsequent Japanification) of all things foreign kept chugging along right up until the Second World War. At the top, we have an appealing example of this internationalism at work in the service of Sakura Beer in the late 1920s. The 1902 ad just above depicts not just the globe but a smoking Pegasus astride it in the name of Peacock cigarettes.\nWhen the tone of Japanese life got militaristic in the 1930s, so did the tone of Japanese ads. The 1937 poster just above proclaims \"Defense for Country, Tobacco for Society,\" a message brought to you by the South Kyoto Tobacco Sellers' Union. Below, the kind of Japanese maiden prewar graphic design always rendered so well appears in a different, more outwardly patriotic, and much more naval form.\nIt goes without saying that most of these ads' designers geared them toward the eyes of the Japanese \u2014 most, but not all. After the war, during the United States' occupation of the country, there appeared print announcements in this same stylistic vein urging GIs and other American military personnel to keep on their best commercial behavior. Take, for instance, these words the straightforwardly named Japan Monopoly Corporation placed beside this archetypically courtly but uncharacteristically stern traditional lady in 1954:\nA valiant effort, but from the stories I've heard of the occupation, no amount of graphic design could've shut down that particular black market. And finally, no look back at vintage Japanese ads would be complete without including one advertisement for sake. The ad below is for Zuigan sake, created in 1934.\nAdvertisements from Japan\u2019s Golden Age of Art Deco\nHand-Colored Photographs of 19th Century Japan\nTwo Short Films on Coffee and Cigarettes from Jim Jarmusch & Paul Thomas Anderson\nColin Marshall hosts and produces Notebook on Cities and Culture as well as the video series The City in Cinema and writes essays on cities, language, Asia, and men\u2019s style.

        "raw_content": "View source for Ferdinand Bauer (1760 - 1826)\n\u2190 Ferdinand Bauer (1760 - 1826)\nWhen Mathew Flinders set off in 1801 from England in the Investigator to map the coast of New Holland, Sir Joseph Banks arranged for him to be accompanied by two scientific gentlemen. One was the Scottish medical practitioner and botanist Robert Brown, who later gave his name to the constant erratic movements of small particles in fluid as seen under a microscope - Brownian Movement and later discovered that cells have nuclei. The other was Ferdinand Bauer, a young Austrian artist who, (with his brother Franz, botanical artist at Kew Gardens), had already made a name as a scientific illustrator. When he was 15 years old, Ferdinand and his two older brothers, having lost their father as infants, were employed by the prior of their home-town monastery in Feldsperg, Austria. The prior set the boys recording, in miniature, the fine collection of plants in the monastery garden. Five years later Franz and Ferdinand Bauer moved to Vienna, to work in the University Botanic Garden. Next, Professor Sibthorpe, Professor of Botany at Oxford University. engaged Ferdinand Bauer as Natural History Painter on a field trip to Greece. When Sibthorpe returned to England in 1787 Bauer went with him to prepare his more than 1,500 drawings for publication. These were eventually published in the '''''Flora Graeca''''', considered by some experts to be the most beautiful botanical work ever produced. [[File:People_bauer.jpg|left|frame|Figure 1. ''Rhopalostylis baueri'']] During their two years with Flinders, Bauer and Brown completed the first circumnavigation of New Holland - or Australia, as it was later called, at the suggestion of Flinders. By then Bauer was able to report to Banks that he had already made drawings of 1,000 plants and 200 animals from Australia and Norfolk Island. '''H.M. Sloop Investigator''' had been refitted according to Banks' specifications and equipped for their work, and they had on board a collection of Australian specimens, a greenhouse, a microscope and a huge library of books on South Sea voyages. The number code that Bauer used on sketches so that they could later be worked up as finished studies is astonishing in its precision. Numbers from one to 999 on his preliminary drawings were translated into gradations of colour so fine that recapturing each shade would seem more a job for a computer than a man. Only rarely are there mistakes in his colouring. In those days before photography, accuracy was of crucial importance: it might take weeks or months to transport delicate specimens back to Europe, with all the attendant problems of decomposition. Brilliant colours soon faded on dead fish or plants, leaving the artist's work as the only record. But Bauer had been well trained. Unlike the earnest amateurs associated with the First Fleet, whose pictures of Australian plants and animals look so odd, Bauers pictures are models of scientific exactness. Bauer has been called \"the supreme botanical draughtsman, the Leonardo of natural history painting\". An art critic has commented that the delicacy of Bauer's technique, combined with a complete absence of sentiment, lends his works a timeless objectivity. They are beautiful because the things Bauer depicts are beautiful; but impressive because of the skill required to hide so many traces of the artist's hand and personality. Flinders named Cape Bauer, a very small cape in South Australia, after his botanical artist. The name of Bauer, (often honouring both Ferdinand and Franz), is commemorated by the genus '''''Bauera''''', (a small shrub from Victoria and Tasmania), '''''Grevillea baueri''''' and '''''Eucalyptus baueriana'''''. And of course by the palm '''''[[Rhopalostylis_baueri]]'''''. In 1998 there was an exhibition of Ferdinand Bauers illustrations, at the Museum of Sydney (on the site of First Government House, cnr Phillip & Bridge Streets). The colours, after almost 200 years, were amazingly well preserved. Included was Bauers preliminary sketch of a Blue Swimmer crab, with the numbers representing colours pencilled in, and nearby the finished paintings of this colourful creature, completed later, perhaps in the comfort of Banks's library in Soho Square. Apart from fish, frogs, lizards, parrots and furry animals there are many plant illustrations, including two of '''''[[Cycas_media]]'''''. A painting of '''''[[Livistona_humilis]]''''', which they found in the Gulf of Carpentaria, illustrates the lectotype from which Robert Brown was to describe the genus, and which for some reason he named after a long demised '''Laird of Livingston''' in Scotland. From Bauers eight month stay on Norfolk Island there were three pencil sketches of the landscape, with many Norfolk Island Pines and many tree ferns, but, alas, none of '''''[[Rhopalostylis_baueri]]'''''. ===Contributed by:=== Ian Edwards {{General_Links|Ferdinand+Bauer}} [[Category:Plant Collectors and Botanists|Bauer]]\nReturn to Ferdinand Bauer (1760 - 1826).\nRetrieved from \u2018http://www.pacsoa.org.au/wiki/Ferdinand_Bauer_(1760_-_1826)\u2019",

        "raw_content": "WHISK(E)Y MINIATURE W\u00fcRLD\nLatest update: July 14th 2008\nINVERGORDON DISTILLERY PICTURES\nINVERGORDON DISTILLERY VISIT 2008\nWhy visit a distillery like Invergordon? Quite simple, when will you ever get a chance to visit a distillery like Invergordon. When I started planning my trip to Scotland, I went to Whyte & Mackay concerning visits to Dalmore, Fettercairn and oh yeah, of course Invergordon would be nice. As Invergordon has a \u201cNO VISITOR\u201d policy as all grain distilleries, I did not expect anything from it.\nDalmore and Fettercairn were arranged without any problem and to my surprise even Invergordon. Until the moment that I walked up to the distillery gate and was \u201capproved\u201d to go to the main office I had my doubts, but it really was true. I had been going around most of the distillery already and was having doubts that it was a distillery. It almost looked like a small refinery, but it really was Invergordon Distillery. Even better I was inside the distillery and getting a tour from production manager Duncan Munro and spirit operations supervisor Ian Mackay.\nAnd before I even try to give you a review of the tour and of all that they told me: \u201cThe visit was unbelievable\u201d. This was not a distillery as usually known by a \u201cprofessional distillery visitor\u201d like me. I had my fair share of malt distilleries, but when you walk into a grain distillery everything changes and your views of distilling change. This is surely a distillery, but nonetheless it is so much different from malt distilleries that you can only walk around in ore and probably miss a lot of the information that both gentlemen throw at you. The size of the distillery is probably only to be set off against other grain distilleries, which I haven\u2019t visited yet. Well I will try to give you a review of the tour and hope that if I made any mistakes, Duncan and Ian will put me straight.\nWhen arriving at the gate, there is a big sign that says \u201cNO VISITORS\u201d, but yes, I was allowed in and they tour was really arranged for which thanks to Julie, Margaret and Richard.\nEven before the tour started it was clear that this was not an ordinarily distillery, grain distilleries are more like a chemical plant than that they are a distillery, in the way that I have been visiting a lot off. Set with the necessary security gear, we are off for the real tour. We are touring a plant of about 80 acres with about 140 personnel.\nThe first part of the tour Duncan Munro, production manager of Invergordon, takes me around the production plant. Duncan started from the \u201cbottom\u201d and in his 20 years at the distillery worked himself up into his current position.\nOne of the first things I was told is that Invergordon produces 35 million litres per year. When walking out to the distillery, we see a truck unloading a full load of wheat. When arriving at the distillery, they first check the quality and after that is approved, the wheat is dumped in one of the 2 silos. Each of them can hold 2,500 tons of wheat, as you probably understand, this is the main ingredient for the Invergordon spirit. However if you want to be able to get the fermenting process going, you will also need malted barley. Where there are arriving some twelve to fifteen 28ton trucks daily with wheat, the amount of malted barley is only about 150 ton per week.\nBoth the wheat and the malted barley are milled separately in 2 large Hammer mills. A load of 16,7 tons of wheat is put into pre heated water and heated (60\u00b0 C). After that the temperature is taken up 100\u00b0 and then 142\u00b0 C. the malt is also put into water, however this water is only 6\u00b0 C. After that the wheat and barley are put together into the mashtun, however not before the temperature of the wheat is taken down to about 62.8\u00b0 C. If the temperature is higher there will be no conversion of starch into sugars. If leaving the mashtun the temperature is taken down to 8 to 9\u00b0 C. To do this there is a cooling system, actually there are 2. If system 1 is in use, the second is cleaned and after 2 weeks takes over duty and system 1 is cleaned.\nNext step is the seed-fermenter, here the yeast is added just before the worts are going into the wash backs. There are 23 stainless steel wash backs, 9 can contain 220,000 litres and the other 14 contain 300,000 litres. The fermentation takes 48 to 60 hours. Filling each tank takes up to 4.5 hours and emptying and cleaning the tanks takes about the same time.\nFrom the wash backs the beer is put into a wash charger and after that it goes into the still. This is not the pot still that you are used to see in a malt distillery, now this is completely different. The production is done in a column, known as a continuous, patent or Coffey still. The still contains two large, connected parallel colums. One is the analyser, of stainless steel, and the other the rectifier, of copper. The wash comes in at the top of the analyser, and is warmed by steam, it will descend over a series of perforated plates. The plates hold back the heavier compounds, which rise from the bottom of the still. The lighter compounds are vaporised and go over in the rectifier. Here the vapours are cooled as they rise up the column, and will be collected in liquid form. The spirit is taken off at 94.5\u00b0 ABV.\nWhat about the remains? Invergordon produces cattle feed of the spent wash. The spent wash is put through a centrifuge and the draft is taken off. The liquid (5 % solids) is evaporated until it holds about 45 to 50 % solids. This will be put together with the draft and pellets are produced for cattle feed. As at Invergordon there are no copper stills, the cattle feed is usable for all kinds of animals.\nInvergordon only uses bourbon casks, which they repair, and if necessary re-charr at the distillery. To end the part of the visit with Duncan, he showed me the boiler room, mostly not the most interesting place. But if you see the 4 boilers at Invergordon, you will have to admit that they are quite impressive. Basically there are 2 boilers with each having 2 compartments. They can be run all separately.\nNext part of the visit is with Ian Mackay, spirit operations supervisor. Ian showed me one of their racked warehouses, of which they don\u2019t have to much any more. With the quantities of spirit they are producing it is easier to palletise the warehouse. This means quite simple that the pallets are not put down anymore, but are staying straight up at pallets. This makes them easier to handle. There are in total 41 warehouses, which hold about 700,000 casks. And they even have permission to enlarge their premises and build even more warehouses.\nLast stop brings us to the part where they cask up the spirit or whisky for transport. In this area they also work at the double maturation of Whyte & Mackay whisky. First all the malt whiskies necessary for the Whyte & Mackay blends are mixed and casked for 3 to 4 months. After that they add the grain whisky to the malt whisky and once more leave them in casks for 3 to 4 month, hence double marriage. This ended a tour at a distillery that I didn\u2019t expect to get into. And why make a huge story about this one. Well as most people will not be able to visit a grain distillery, I hope this at least give you a little insight in how a grain distillery works.\nOh, if you are wondering if you know Invergordon from malt whisky, well that is possible. In 1965, the Ben Wyvis distillery was set up inside the Invergordon plant. In 1977 however the Ben Wyvis section was closed and dismantled. You still can see the stills, but you will have to go to Campbeltown and hope that you are able to visit the Glengyle distillery, because that is where the stills are now.",

        "raw_content": "I remember the first time Esme defied me. She was 2, and we were at the door getting ready to leave. I asked her to put on her shoes (nicely, I might add). She refused, threw her shoe down the hall hitting the wall and a hanging photo. I lost my mind, I couldn\u2019t believe the daughter I had breastfed for two years, never let out of my sight, co-slept with and did everything you were \u201csupposed\u201d to do to be an attached parent\u2026refused to do as I asked. I was married to the idea that if I responded to my daughter\u2019s needs and spent all of my time with her, she would grow up happy and obedient. I was sadly and sorely mistaken. After asking her several times to put her shoes on, I lost it. I yelled, no I screamed at her and scared her and me. Afterward, I was so ashamed, embarrassed and depressed because I knew better. I was better and I wanted more for the life I was to share with this sweet girl. But, somehow the yells that came from my mouth were so automatic as if they'd been lying dormant just waiting to surface.\nThis was my true parenting when push came to shove, so when things got heated, so did I, just like my parents. I wanted to be nothing like them when they were angry. I wanted to be calm and relaxed, but I wasn\u2019t, and now I know why they couldn\u2019t maintain their cool either. IT IS SO DIFFICULT! How can we possibly remain calm when we don't have a good role model? It's too foreign.\nSo there is where it began. I started reading everything I could get my hands on. Books on logical consequences, positive reinforcement, counting, threats, bribes and everything in-between. I even reverted to what I learned in my teacher credentialing program\u2014star charts, rewards systems, and timeout. All of which worked for short spurts, but nothing seemed to get the desired behaviors and each left me feeling awful. One because they created distance between Esme and me, and two,\u2026when things got crazy, and at the end of each of my stints with the discipline of the week, I would resort to yelling and shaming. Worse yet, it was my secret. I couldn\u2019t or didn\u2019t want to admit to yelling at my sweet daughter, so I held it in and kept it from everyone around me, isolating me further into my bad behavior. In the midst of this chaos, I got pregnant and had another baby which created an even greater distance and divide between Esme and me.\nThere was no way I could focus on one child let alone two. I was so busy bonding and breastfeeding Pia that poor Esme was shoved off to her grandfather, dad, and preschool. I was terrified to be alone in the house with them and would avoid it at all costs. The upsets and defiance were too much for me, and I couldn\u2019t handle it. It was as if everything was an emergency. As time went on the girls began to fight making things worse. I was a mess, and my daughters were unhappy. Bedtime and morning were the worst, and I couldn\u2019t wait for Esme to go to preschool each day as it was the only time I felt I could breathe. I was barely getting by emotionally and couldn\u2019t admit it to anyone around me.\nEsme\u2019s defiance and the sibling rivalry hit a fever pitch as she entered kindergarten. I was yelling, reprimanding and shaming as a way to get her to comply, but her defiance was out of control. Everything was a fight and a negotiation. I had to bribe her with TV shows to get her to brush her teeth, dessert to get her to eat dinner and threaten her with a timeout to get anything else I needed or wanted her to do. It was a mess, all of it. She was strong-willed and highly sensitive, and I hadn\u2019t a clue how to parent her. Moreover, she began threatening and bribing her friends, me and her sister. I was really starting to worry she would never have normal relationships in her future.\nI finally found Hand in Hand Parenting and things began to make sense to me. I realized that by using daily Special TIme, I could build in connection. By doing away with manipulations (threats, shame, bribes, and timeouts), I discontinued damaging our relationship. Using playfulness to come to sticky situations I could lessen the intensity of our struggles. By having empathy for her feelings instead of trying to make her shove them or talk them away, she felt heard and more connected to me. Regulating my own emotions and reactions as not to frighten and ignite her kept us connected and calm. With all of this, I finally forged a relationship with my daughter. The kind I wanted\u2026where we mutually cared about each other. She began to be compliant, saying yes without bribes to toothbrushing and dressing in the morning. Her relationship with her sister improved, and we were more harmonious. Was it perfect? NO WAY! Did it take time and commitment and dedication? HELL YES! But, I wouldn\u2019t change a thing. Those first few months figuring out how to \u201cdo\u201d all this with the help of a coach were some of the hardest months of my life, but the best. I became a better person, and my parenting was actually decent. We moved through upsets more quickly and with less drama. Is my daughter still strong-willed and sensitive? ABSOLUTELY. Her temperament will probably not change, but she is compliant 90% of the time. Only because I found ways to change and become a calmer and more connected mom, and I work on it every day.\nWhen parents ask me how to get kids to be compliant, I try to tell them to get more connected. Sometimes it doesn\u2019t make sense, but that is exactly what I mean, and it works. There is no 1-2-3 Magic or special punishment that will give you miraculous results. It's devotion to a relationship and understanding not only your child's behaviors but their emotions as well, all while regulating your own emotions. If you work on and cultivate this connection, it will pay tenfold in dividends. Do not underestimate the power of connection.\nNewer PostSpeak Your Truth\nOlder Post10 Things to Cultivate a Deeper Bond with Your Kids",

        "raw_content": "The Green Fields of France was billed as, \u2018A Docu-Musical Tribute to Manx Soldiers of the Great War.\u2019 This impressive work was conceived, written and produced by a former chairman of the trust, Bill Quine. It has to be one of the most ambitious projects undertaken by us and played to good houses on the 8thand 9th of August.\nWhen Bill first floated the idea, I was very supportive and hopeful during the succeeding eighteen months, that Bill, the cast, musicians and technicians at the Centenary Centre would be able to pull it off. This they did, well beyond any reasonable expectation. The local content, the large cast from elderly to young children, the content, the style and quality of presentation was moving and inspiring. This was particularly poignant when letters from the front to local people were read out. Sadly, many of the writers never returned or were seriously injured.\nMembers of the audience were greeted by a news paper boy handing out a \u2018Special Great War Edition\u2019 of the Peel City Guardian. This will become very collectable.\nA narrator tied the various elements together. It began with a graveside and a small girl laying a poppy cross. The vicar for Peel, in period uniform, recited, \u201cThey shall not grow old\u2026\u2026\u201d followed by a lone trumpeter sounding the last post followed by a minute\u2019s silence. The narrator held up a soldier\u2019s New Testament inscribed \u2018Trust Jesus\u2019 Sapper William Fox 2317\u2019, followed by his favourite text.\nWar was declared on 4th August 1914. Little did people realise that this bloody conflict would last for four years. 8 261 Manxmen went to fight, equating to 82.3% of all Manxmen of military age, the highest percentage of any country in the British Empire. Numerous horses were also commandeered.\nPeriod songs, many war-related, were sung by soloists and the specially assembled choir. The audience joined in with the more familiar ones. All the music was in the hands of John Elliott \u2013 always much appreciated. Roy Kennaugh read poems in Manx dialect interspersed with instrumental items.\nSuddenly, to cries of Gas! Gas!, clouds of smoke rolled across the stage accompanied by the sounds of guns and shells screaming overhead, serving to illustrate the vicious cruelty of the enemy. This was contrasted by the name of the trench recreated on stage, titled Lhen. The sound of guns and shells were realistic.\nThe unofficial Christmas truce of 1914 was featured together with a decree from King George the Vth that this was not to be repeated. The fear was that if the two sides saw each other as humans and even fellow Christians, the will to fight might be sapped. At this point, our bagpiper moved from the back of the theatre to the front, playing, \u201cSilent Night.\u201d This had a dramatic effect. The final battle scene in 1918 with accompanying loss of life was very moving.\nThe last scene back at the graveside with the little girl, complete with poppy petals falling, was very moving.\nIt was appropriate that our narrator was James Mylchreest, grandson of the late Col. Brian Mylchreest, Colonel in Chief of the Manx Regiment.\nI\u2019ve tried to capture the atmosphere of this fine production. All the cast, too numerous to list here, performed with distinction. We are grateful to our sponsors listed in the Guardian and the unstinting efforts of the Peel Centenary Centre. All profits are being donated to the Poppy Appeal. A further event to mark the war\u2019s centenary will be a conducted tour of war graves at Peel Cemetery at 2.30pm on Sunday, 5th October. Meet in or at the cemetery chapel. Remembrance Day will be marked by a special event on the 11thhour of the 11th day of the 11th month at the cathedral war memorial. This will include a large number of children.\nIn much lighter mood, our next meeting is at 7.30pm on Wednesday, the17th September in the Centenary Centre. Dot Tilbury, the undisputed Queen of Manx Cycling will be unleashed in a presentation entitled \u2018Cycling Anecdotes\u2019. This will appeal to all her many fans, so come early!",

And my daughter lives in Queens, and I just wondered if you know something about the health of Queens that I don't know and I should know, as a mother.\nAnyway, thank you for inviting us today. We appreciate the opportunity to talk to you about something that we consider to be very serious. I would like to also say I am the former Chair of the New Jersey Governor's Lyme Disease Advisory Council; I'm the former president of the Wall Township Board of Education; and I also sit on the Board of Directors of the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society, ILADS, which is a professional medical society. The Lyme Disease Association is an all-volunteer national organization providing Lyme disease research, education and research funding. Along with an affiliate, the Greenwich Lyme Disease Task Force, the Lyme Disease Association is prepared to open with Columbia University a research center, an endowed research center at Columbia. We're working on the logistics right now.\nLyme is the fastest growing vector-borne disease in the United States, yet it is rarely given the weight that if deserves. The situation facing patient and physicians in New York is not unique; it mirrors the nation. Patients frequently cannot obtain diagnosis, treatment, insurance reimbursement, disability, education, or even understanding from their families and their peers. Treating physicians have faced a variety of licensure sanctions, including being supervised, fined, not allowed to treat Lyme patients, and license suspension and revocation.\nIn one of the earliest responses to Lyme problems, New Jersey enacted the first Governor's Lyme Disease Advisory Council in 1991. California and Rhode Island are following suit. Minnesota, Connecticut, New Jersey, and even New York, with their Tick-borne Disease Institute, and Pennsylvania have enacted or introduced legislation addressing issues from treatment and tick control to mandatory in-service for educators in the schools.\nAt the federal level, several pieces of legislation are before Congress. Additionally, in 1993, Senator Edward Kennedy heard a prominent New York physician testify in Senate hearings in Washington concerning the problems facing treating physicians, and I quote from his testimony: \"A few state health departments have now begun to investigate in a very threatening way physicians who have more liberal views on Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment than they do. And, indeed, I have to confess that today I feel I am taking a personal risk, a large one, because I am stating these views publicly,\" unquote. That doctor was later charged by the New York OPMC.\nIn other areas at the federal level, the United States Army Centers for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine has developed has a pocket-size lab to test ticks in the field. Soldiers may receive immediate treatment if bitten by ticks that test positive for Lyme disease. Babesiosis and ehrlichiosis are also being studied by them. Tick populations are being mapped. Satellites are beaming the data to special prototype helmets worn by the soldiers in the field, allowing armies to maneuver around heavy tick populations. NASA and the NIH have a joint culturing project for Lyme disease bacteria using microgravity chambers, which mimic conditions in space and in the human body.\nNew York, with its highest reported Lyme disease cases, joins its contiguous states, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, constituting a block of the top four states in the nation in reported cases. Reported cases have to meet the Centers for Disease Control surveillance criteria. And what that is, is that a person has to have either a physician's diagnosed bull's-eye rash or positive bloodwork and other system involvement. So, the actual number of Lyme cases is estimated to be ten times higher than the reported cases. The Centers for Disease Control reports 3,626 Lyme disease cases in New York for the year 2000. That actually equals 36,260 actual cases for that one year alone. Nationally, in 2000, the reported number is 15,328, which equals 153,280 actual new cases for that year. According to the CDC, the surveillance criteria is not to be used for diagnosis, since patients often do not meet the strict surveillance definition. Despite the CDC warnings, many physicians use the surveillance criteria to diagnosis cases, and many insurance companies deny treatment to anyone not meeting those criteria. Excerpts from two Lyme protocols used by insurance companies seem to base coverage on the surveillance criteria, since they require symptoms supported by positive antibody response tests. And that's included in your packet.\nAdditionally, I just obtained yesterday a communication -- it was written in 1996, but the mail is a little slow these days, and I just received it. It was from the New York Department of Health to the Centers for Disease Control. And in that communication, the New York Department of Health indicated that if they followed the two-tier testing requirement for their 1995 cases, 81 percent of cases without rashes would not have been confirmed as Lyme disease. Insurance companies use graphs depicting antibiotic prescribing patterns and they often do not except doctor-prescribed testing such as PCR, which shows the presence of the DNA of the infecting organism, although PCR is accepted for other diseases such as HIV, hepatitis, TB and, I understand now, even anthrax. They limit treatment to 28 days, sometimes they substitute orals for IV, and they use the surveillance criteria for reimbursement determination. Therefore, our doctors face a tremendous dilemma: They have to treat sick patients who do not meet the surveillance criteria.\nPrivately, several doctors have revealed that their insurance carriers strongly suggested they either leave the plan or stop treating Lyme patients long term. A few continue to treat, some refer their patients to long-term treating physicians, while others, fearing reprisals or facing economic hardship, stop seeing Lyme patients. An insurance company letter to a New Jersey patient states, quote, \"Unfortunately, a number of unscrupulous practitioners in this and neighboring states have held themselves out as experts in the treatment of Lyme disease. These individuals have subjected patients to improper diagnoses, excessive treatments, inordinately long courses of intravenous therapy, and other activities not support by science or generally accepted standards of medical practice. Because our organization has been appropriately vigilant and aggressive in dealing with certain practitioners, they have chosen to leave our network.\" I would say that's some choice.\nAt issue nationally to patients and doctors is the volume of complaints by medical boards against these treating physicians who already constitute a very small number overall. To address this situation in New Jersey, in 1993, Congressman Christopher Smith, who is now the chair of the Veteran's Committee in the House of Representatives, held a public Congressional Lyme forum. And last year, the New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiners met with Smith's office and -- which was followed by a meeting with the Lyme Disease Association and a Lyme-literate physician. The LDA has also held other meetings on the controversy with state health commissioners in Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Jersey, and we addressed the Pennsylvania House of Representatives majority caucus.\nI also have with me today - it also arrived too late to be included, but it is in your packet - a letter from Congressman Joseph Pitts from Pennsylvania. He has one statement which reads, \"We believe that Lyme disease is a scientific controversy and, consequently, medical boards should not prosecute physicians based on their long-term treatment of this devastating illness.\"\nWhat we are trying to do is advocate a regional approach to the disease. Today's hearings are not without precedent. Besides Attorney General Blumenthal's Connecticut hearings, Texas recently held state Senate hearing on the harassment of physicians who treat Lyme. A recommendation from that hearing committee, quote, \"Directed the Texas Board of Medical Examiners to develop review guidelines for doctors who provide medical care related to tick-borne illnesses,\" unquote.\nIn New York, we met with representatives from the OPMC, Health Department and the Governor's office, motivated by the fact that almost 60 percent of doctors who treat chronic Lyme disease in New York State have faced OPMC scrutiny the past year. At a meeting this year, OPMC reps said that \"some of our best tips come from insurance companies.\" New York law prevents doctors from ever knowing the original complaint or complainant, thus treating doctors run the risk of spending tens of thousands of dollars defending their right to treat a patient, even when the patient has improved, the patient is not complaining, and the patient objects to his or her records being used against the doctor.\nAnd I've included a letter of testimony Dr. Sowell, who is a patient, in the packet. In a letter from Congressman Smith to the New York Assembly Health Committee, he states, quote, \"While it is the job of state boards of medical examiners to review complaints logged against doctors and to take action when needed, a concern that was expressed in my state was that some of the complaints were filed not by patients, but by insurance companies - and entities associated with them - who did not want to pay for the costs associated with treating Lyme patients under an aggressive antibiotic regimen. Using a state panel that is supposed to investigate malpractice to help achieve financial gain is simply wrong,\" unquote.\nAdditional concerns arose from the New York meetings when officials repeated assured that none of the charges against the New York physicians was related to Lyme diseases. We subsequently discovered the word \"Lyme\" appears a total of 41 times in the factual allegations against two of the doctors. A New York assemblyman who viewed the charges confirmed at the meeting with the Governor's chief counsel that the charges were, indeed, Lyme-related.\nThe Department of Health indicated it was not actively soliciting complaints against treating doctors. A patient letter suggesting otherwise details her call to the New York Department of Health and two subsequent calls to her from them. Only seeking information on Lyme and other tick-borne diseases, she was subject to her diagnosis being questioned, told to see another physician other than her own, received an unsolicited complaint form in the mail from the Department of Health, and was pressured to file a complaint against her treating doctor. The DOH told her that he and the DOH could attain anyone's records that they chose, including hers. She never filed a complaint; however, her medical records were pulled soon after the call, and she never heard from that doctor again. Her treating physician eventually faced charges.\nLyme disease is so complicated that physicians whose publications are often quoted to deny persisting infection have been shown to make statements that appear to be conflicting. Witness a 1990 response letter from a prominent rheumatologist to the Connecticut Department of Health. He refers to a specific doctor, quote, \"treating these people with prolonged courses of antibiotic therapy ... patients have usually not required the prolonged courses of antibiotics suggested in his handout ... I think it is unfortunate that the Lyme Borreliosis Foundation and the doctors often associated with them have been become major spokesmen for Lyme disease. I believe they are the principal force leading to the overdiagnosis and overtreatment of this illness. Do you have any ideas regarding what to do about this,\" unquote. Coincidentally, the two physicians named in the letter by the rheumatologist were subsequently charged in their respective states.\nIn 1994, that same rheumatologist wrote to patients, \"I would like to invite you to participate in long-term follow-up studies of our patients who have had Lyme disease. It has becoming increasingly apparent that the Lyme disease spirochete ... may persist in some patients for years. Of particular concern, recent studies have shown that the spirochete may persist in the nervous system in a small percentage of patients and may cause chronic neurologic involvement,\" unquote.\nBefore I close, I would like to take this opportunity, first of all, to present the committee with a little what I consider to be weighty evidence. In this book are the documents which we believe support the persisting infection of Lyme disease. It has already been presented to the Governor's office, and also I presented it to Senator Hannon in a prior meeting. And I would like to say that you obviously have the opportunity to view it or not and make your own judgments. However, the doctors in New York who are charged do not necessarily have the opportunity to present this evidence. They have told us that when they go before the hearing body, that oftentimes the evidence, which is peer-reviewed literature, is not accepted; they are not allowed to present it to defend themselves and their right to treat.\nOne other comment that I would like to make, and I guess this is -- I'm going to call this a hypothetical question. If, at this time, I were to announce right now that I'm the CEO with a major pharmaceutical company, I would ask you how that would make you feel about my testimony. Would you, perhaps, have selected someone else to testify today? Would you be going back now over my testimony to determine what weight you would now give it, as prepared (sic) to before, when you didn't think I was a CEO? The reason I'm bringing that up is, we determined in the meetings with the OPMC that they do not have a disclosure provision and so, therefore, the witnesses that are used against our physicians, they do not have to disclose any monetary gain that they may be receiving, which of course would obviously change your testimony. And I would also like to add for the record that I'm not the CEO of a major pharmaceutical company. And please let my husband know that, because he might wonder where I'm hiding the money.\nLyme is an enigma. While the debate rages over proper diagnostic and treatment procedures, patients get sicker and some even die. The rational answer to this medical and moral dilemma lies in a quote from Ansel Marks, M.D., J.D., who is the Executive Secretary for the Board of Professional Misconduct. In a letter to a Lyme patient who filed a complaint against a doctor opposed long-term treatment, Dr. Mark states, quote, \"As defined by law, a difference of medical opinion in and of itself is not medical misconduct,\" unquote.\n[LYMEINFO MODERATOR NOTE- QUESTIONS FROM THE PANEL]:\nMR. GOTTFRIED: Just one question. You 10 made reference to several insurance companies using the CDC reporting guideline as a basis for payment decisions, and I guess the footnote in your testimony mentions in particular Aetna. It will be useful if you have documentation of other insurance companies doing similar things -- if you could provide that to us as a follow-up afterwards, that would be useful.\nMS. SMITH: Thank you. I think I presented Aetna; and there was a Prudential, I believe, guideline from 1995 also in there. I don't know if that's their current -- that's as current as we have. I'll try to get you some other material.\nMR. GOTTFRIED: Thank you. That would be useful.\nDR. MILLER: Just one question. You mentioned the Tick-Borne Diseases Institute in New York State. Could you tell us how much money that institute receives to do all of the work that it has to do on ticks and Lyme disease?\nMS. SMITH: Well, I hope my memory serves me correctly, but I believe it was $150,000. I think that the remaining funding that was supposed to go there, I believe, goes to another institution in New York. I suggest you reserve that question for Mrs. Auerbach. She's very knowledgeable in that area, and she can probably provide you with the details.\nDR. MILLER: Thank you.\nMR. GOTTFRIED: We're looking into the source of the static. Thank you very much. Oh, I'm sorry, Ms. Smith. Nettie Mayersohn has a question. I'm sorry.\nASSEMBLYWOMAN NETTIE MAYERSOHN: Maybe it's my voice. Hello? I can hear you now. Do you know of any cases that have been brought against doctors for undertreatment of Lyme disease as a result of patient complaints?\nMS. SMITH: To answer your question, I know of several that were -- complaints that were initiated; none, to my knowledge, have, you know, borne out.\nMS. MAYERSOHN: Okay. We should have a list of those cases so we can follow up on them. Thank you.\nMS. SMITH: I'll see if we can fine them. Thank you.\nMR. GOTTFRIED: Okay. Thank you.\nFor more information about Ms. Smith\ufffds many actions serving the country and advancing. Please log on to: www.lymediseaseassociation.org\nThe Lyme Disease Research Center at Columbia University\nThe Lyme Disease Research Center will use the vast resources of Columbia University in New York to address fundamental clinical and basic science questions that plague adults and children affected by Lyme disease (LD). While much is known about early Lyme disease, very little is known about chronic Lyme disease, despite its rising prevalence and disabling effects. These effects may include arthritis, cognitive loss, peripheral neuropathies, and debilitating fatigue. Rarely, LD may also cause strokes, blindness, severe psychiatric disorders, and multiple-sclerosis-like illnesses. Children may be home sick for months or years, missing the key academic and social influences so critical to healthy development.\nOur clinical and research mission includes studies of new diagnostic tests, clinical phenomenology, immunopathogenesis, co-infections, genetic markers of vulnerability, functional and structural brain imaging, neuoropathology of post-mortem brains, and well-controlled studies of new treatments. This Center, the first such facility in the world devoted to chronic Lyme disease, will serve as a national resource, providing pilot grants to researchers nation-wide and focusing the latest scientific technology on helping to resolve the problems of chronic Lyme disease. Researchers at Columbia are now completing analysis on a 5 year NIH-funded study of the pathophysiologic effects of Lyme disease on the brain and whether a repeated longer course of IV antibiotic therapy helps to reverse the cognitive and physical dysfunction experienced by previously treated patients.\nBrian A. Fallon, MD\nI am writing with an urgent appeal concerning the most prevalent vector-borne disease in the US, reported in 49 states and the District of Columbia, and the most prevalent vector-borne bacterial disease in the world, Lyme disease. The CDC admits Lyme is vastly underreported nationally at almost 24,000 reported cases in 2002\ufffdrepresenting about 240,000 actual cases that year, an astounding 40% increase over the prior year.\nLyme disease can be acquired in your own backyard. It often attacks more than one family member, with children a high risk. Risky behavior includes petting the dog, jogging or playing outdoors, golfing, and even bringing home a live Christmas tree. 10-15% of those with the Lyme bacteria progress to chronic Lyme disease. Other tick-borne diseases may result from the same tick bite.\nDespite this staggering data, little monies are spent for research. Therefore, the Lyme Disease Association (LDA) and its affiliate, Time for Lyme (TFL*) have reached an agreement with Columbia University to fund an endowed Lyme disease research center at Columbia, the first in the world devoted to the study of chronic Lyme disease. LDA and TFL have jointly raised over $1.3 million out of $3 million required to fully open the center with a dedicated researcher, although some Lyme research using state-of-the-art brain scans is already underway. *Formerly Greenwich Lyme Disease Task Force\nDon\ufffdt let Lyme disease destroy your life and the lives of your family and friends. Help us open the Columbia Center by sending a tax-deductible contribution today. Together, we can fund the cure.\nPatricia V. Smith, President, LDA\nDiane Blanchard, Deb Siciliano, Co-Presidents, TFL",

        "raw_content": "\u200b1. Free Energy, Food And Medicine\n\u200bOn the 13th of October 2015 Mr Keshe, an Iranian nuclear physicist revealed that pallet loads of free energy devices that will soon run a home, have been distributed amongst the poorest people in Italy and elsewhere in the world. But that\u2019s just the beginning\u2026\n3 days later, Keshe gathered ambassadors from around the world and told them what they were about to face.\nWhat he revealed, is so preposterous that without some background, you will dismiss it out of hand, so I am going to give you a brief framework before getting back to my research.\nYou see, Keshe\u2019s one \u2018simple\u2019 observation is already releasing energy from the \u2018ether\u2019 causing matter to levitate, illnesses to heal, pains to vanish, amputated digits to regrow and water to replace the most nutritious meal imaginable.\nQuite literally, in a single move, this discovery has the potential, to quickly free us from our dependency on oil, nuclear, coal, pharmaceuticals and the agricultural complex.\nIt has become possible to perform Alchemy on the run, and literally \u2018magic\u2019 almost anything out of thin air. I say \u2018magic\u2019 because that\u2019s what it looks like. But it\u2019s not. It\u2019s physics.\n1 hour and 58 minutes into his presentation to the World\u2019s ambassadors, Mr Keshe does a little doodle on the flip chart, and explains how to make blood out of thin air in a plastic cup.\nWhile most scientists, doctors and even naturopaths are stuck in the old paradigm of matter, elements, minerals, vitamins and toxins, a few of us have been looking the other way. Hundreds of billions of dollars have been spent dissecting one particle after another in search of \u2018the God particle\u2019, while a handful of enlightened individuals, like Hahnemann, Yurkovsky and Keshe, have grappled with the \u2018field\u2019 which fills the space between the particles.\nThen, a decade or so ago Mr M T Keshe proposed that gravity and magnetism were not primary forces at all, but were in fact artefacts of another field referred to as the Plasmatic field and that understanding this field and its effects, would 'make every peasant a master of his or her environment.'\nPlasma is referred to as the fourth state of matter, after solids, liquids, and gases. But Mr Keshe reveals there is much more to it than previously understood. Plasma comprises a cloud of neutrons, protons, and electrons. And because the electrons have come loose from their respective molecules and atoms, plasma behaves as a whole rather than as a collection of atoms.\nA plasma behaves similarly to a gas because the atoms are not in constant contact with each other, but it behaves differently too, in that it possesses collective behaviour. This means that the plasma can flow like a liquid or clump together, where atoms are more tightly packed.\nThe natural behaviour of a plasma field is for it to spiral. This field is invisible but is everywhere, making up 99.999% of the universes. You see its footprint in everything, from the spiralling of a galaxy to the twist in the trunk of an oak tree, to the architecture of a shell. But until Keshe, man had failed to adequately identify its characteristics and fundamental significance.\n\u200bIn this new model, it is the plasma, spiralling into one side of a sphere and out of the other, that gives it a North and South pole. Two North poles repel. This is the \u2018magnetic force\u2019. When a North and South come together, they attract, which is what we refer to as gravity. Since magnetism and gravitation are actually two expressions of the same spiralling plasma, Keshe has put the two together and renamed them \u201cMaGrav\u201d fields.\nIt transpires that every material has a MAGRAV field. Under the right conditions, copper can be made to magnetise or repel copper, wood and plastics can do it too. It just depends on the environment.\nAs early as the 1920s, scientists including Victor Schauberger insisted through experimentation, that plants and animals created elements out of nothing in their tissues. But it was only a year ago, when Keshe demonstrated to Japanese farmers on Youtube, how they could clean their land of radioactive isotopes, that the spontaneous creation of new materials became self evident.\nWhat this demonstrated is that given the right conditions, it is possible to draw materials out of the atmosphere and produce a nano-coat or layer of a new element on a conductive plate.\n\u200bWhat has the spontaneous creation of new materials got to do with medicine? Well \u2013 until now, we have assumed that we must consume minerals to have them available to the body. But now it must be accepted that we can manufacture them to some degree for ourselves. Of course, this exquisite capability would not be left to random chance. So when we see mineral imbalances, something else must be going on.\nI am not saying for one minute that you should not eat nutritious foods, but I AM suggesting that your body has probably worked out the best mineral balance under your particular circumstance at any given moment and that it is ensuring those conditions by virtue of its plasmatic, magnetic gravitational fields.\nKeshe showed the Japanese farmers that a few scraps of metal dropped into a caustic bath would automatically coat themselves with \u2018nano-layers\u2019 of precious metals. These newly created elements could be used to attract the radioactive waste from the fields.\nIn the body, it is our bones that are the \u2018plates\u2019 creating the perfect mix of chemistry out of thin air, to support our every moment. But it is more complex than that. The brain controls the bones. And different bones nourish the blood for different organs.\nThis is so precise, that Keshe can determine the health of the prostate, by looking at the quality of the bones of the ankles, lower ribs and shoulder. This is because he has established that these areas of bone coordinate with the brain to nourish the prostate. If the bone deteriorates, so does the health of the prostate.\nNo wonder then, that Keshe\u2019s first 4 hours of medical lectures focus entirely on the bones.\nIt is of course beyond the scope of this article to discuss individual disease conditions and Keshe\u2019s approach to recovery, but it is, I think, obvious that if an incorrect plasmatic, magnetic, gravitational environment is created, then the material outcome (the shape, form and performance of the tissue) will be faulty.\nSo a faulty body part must necessarily be the result of a corrupted MAGRAV field.\nKnowing that, what makes more sense to you. Should we surgically or chemically alter that body part, or provide nutrients in the hope that the fields will correct themselves? Or should we learn how to observe and control the MAGRAV fields themselves and re-orientate them to bring the tissue back to its intended form and function, and properly support our life and our health in this way?\nFinally, after 15 years I can better explain why it is that Field Control Therapy is so powerful. We are literally re-orientating plasma. And that re-orientation restores the body\u2019s ability to materialise what it needs, when it needs it, in a constant alchemical dance.\nIn truth, everything we have ever done has manipulated these fields. Every drug, herb, mineral, photon, electron and even thought has been altering the plasma. But until now, we have been doing it blindly. Today though, thousands of individuals around the world are focusing their efforts on learning and teaching every aspect of this open source discovery, and the future is very bright indeed!",

My dad, Jim Grove-Quinn, also worked for P&O Ferries and whenever we went to Calais on our holidays I spent most of my time going up to the captain's bridge to see how the ship was being run.\"\n\"At my dad's suggestion, I joined P&O Ferries straight from school and took a cadet course at South Tyneside College which set me on the path to becoming an officer. Since then I've worked on most of the ships in our English Channel fleet. I love the job, which is very busy and always has something going on.\"\n\"My dad still works for the company on our sister ship the Spirit of Britain and is very proud that his daughter has reached the rank of Master. Although he's made me promise never to tell him what to do if I ever see him on board.\"\nP&O Ferries, which is this year celebrating the 180th anniversary of the founding of P&O, appointed its first female captain in 2015.\nJohn Garner, the company's Fleet Director, added: \"Jenny's progression through the ranks illustrates the remarkable career opportunities which are available to young men and women who choose a career at sea. We are all proud of her and wish her many years of happy and safe sailing with P&O Ferries.\"\nTogether with its logistics division, P&O Ferrymasters, the company also operates integrated road and rail links to countries across the continent including Italy, Poland, Germany, Spain and Romania. P&O Ferrymasters also owns a rail terminal in the Romanian city of Oradea, which facilitates the onward movement of goods to Britain from Asian countries via the Silk Road.",

        "raw_content": "The district of Leiria is located inland from the coast and is home to a wide variety of unique towns and attractions, all offering different scenery, monuments and customs.\nThe charming fishing town of Peniche is situated on the coast and is a popular deep sea-fishing destination where you can also enjoy excellent seafood restaurants and regular ferry trips to the Berlenga Islands \u2013 a beautiful natural reserve surrounded by transparent waters.\nNazar\u00e9 is another picturesque fishing village in the district and is popular for its spectacular, sandy beach on which fishermen still stretch out their nets. After visiting Leiria\u2019s age-old castle, medieval Pra\u00e7a Rodrigues Lobo and Renaissance cathedral, make your way to the Batalha Monastery \u2013 a true masterpiece of Gothic architecture in the country. Also be sure to see the grandiose monastery in Alcoba\u00e7a, a magnificent, medieval structure including a 12th Century church.\nThe popular city of Caldas da Rainha is famous for its traditional (and somewhat humorous) ceramics and crafts, while the city of Marinha Grande is renowned for being the largest glass manufacturer in Portugal. Discover \u00d3bidos, an enchanting, whitewashed town surrounded by 14th Century castle walls.\nFortaleza de Peniche (Peniche Fortress)\nThis fortress was an important military base during the Middle Ages and was completed in 1645. After many years of war, its strategic value began to decrease and it was eventually decommissioned. From that point on, the fortress was used as a shelter for Boer refugees at the beginning of the 20th Century, a detention camp for Austrians and Germans during WWI and a prison for those who opposed Portugal\u2019s former regime. This fortress is also home to the Peniche Museum, which houses a collection of regional artefacts and historical documentation related to Portugal\u2019s past dictatorship.\nIgreja da Miseric\u00f3rdia (Our Lady of Mercy Church)\nThis church\u2019s ceiling is its greatest highlight and is completely covered with 55 paintings depicting scenes from the New Testament \u2013 an example of the region\u2019s legacy of talented 17th Century artists. Besides this magnificent display, you can also admire five extraordinary canvases painted by the Spanish-born painter, Josefa d\u2019\u00d3bidos, beautiful examples of tiles on the walls and several outstanding sculptures.\nMosteiro da Batalha (Batalha Monastery)\nAlso known as the Santa Maria da Vit\u00f3ria Monastery, this national monument was built by order of King D. Jo\u00e3o I as a gift of gratitude to the Virgin Mary after Portugal\u2019s victory against Castile in the Aljubarrota Battle. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this unique structure was built in 1388 and is regarded as the country\u2019s finest example of late-Gothic architecture. Depictions of the Apostles, Prophets, Angels and of Jesus Christ surrounded by the four Evangelists can be admired on the monastery\u2019s portal. The tombs of King D. Jo\u00e3o I, D. Filipa de Lencastre and her child can be visited in the \u2018Fundador Chapel.\u2019 Beautiful stained-glass windows illustrating several Biblical scenes such as \u2018The Visitation\u2019, the \u2018Adoration of the Magi\u2019, the \u2018Flight into Egypt\u2019 and the \u2018Resurrection of Christ\u2019 embellish the monastery\u2019s interior, while typical, gargoyle-shaped waterspouts adorn its exterior. The Batalha Monastery is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful examples of Gothic architecture in the country.\nMosteiro de Alcoba\u00e7a (Alcoba\u00e7a Monastery)\nSituated in the fertile valley were the Alcoa and Ba\u00e7o rivers flow, this monastery was donated to the Cistercian Order by King D. Afonso Henriques after conquering Santar\u00e9m from the Moors. Today, only the portal, two large windows and the rose window between them remain from the structure\u2019s original Baroque fa\u00e7ade and towers. Inside the side chapels of the monastery\u2019s transept are the intricately sculpted tombs of Prince D. Pedro I and his ill-starred lover, D. In\u00eas de Castro. The transept also provides access to the tombs of King D. Afonso II, King D. Afonso III, their spouses and children. Other parts of the monastery that are located around the cloister include the \u2018Chapter House\u2019, the \u2018Monks Room\u2019 and an 18th Century kitchen and refectory. In the \u2018Room of the Kings\u2019, the lovely tiled panels and the clay statues of Portuguese monarchs are especially noteworthy.\nportugal-live.net Places to See Lisbon - Capital Leiria",

On behalf of Elizabeth we want to express our gratitude to the thousands of kindred spirits who moved and inspired her along the way. Your support and prayers touched our entire family.\u201d\nA family friend, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told the Associated Press that Edwards died at 10:15 a.m. in North Carolina. People magazine reported Monday that Elizabeth Edwards\u2019 cancer had spread to her liver and doctors were recommending against additional treatment. Edwards was first diagnosed with breast cancer in November 2004, the same day the Democratic presidential ticket headed by Sen. John Kerry and his running mate, John Edwards, lost the White House race. Three years later, Elizabeth Edwards learned that the cancer had returned. John Edwards, at the time, was preparing to run again for president. She has been legally separated from her husband since January 2010. John Edwards admitted, after months of denials, that he had fathered a child with videographer Rielle Hunter, with whom he had had an affair. President Obama and his wife, Michelle, expressed condolences to the Edwards family. \u201cIn her life, Elizabeth Edwards knew tragedy and pain,\u201d Obama said in a statement. \u201cMany others would have turned inward; many others in the face of such adversity would have given up. But through all that she endured, Elizabeth revealed a kind of fortitude and grace that will long remain a source of inspiration.\u201d Edwards, 61,had four children: Wade, who died at age 16 in a 1996 car accident; Cate, 28, a Washington lawyer; Emma Claire, 12, and Jack, 10.",

        "title": "House Appraised Below the Purchase Price; Now What?",
        "raw_content": "Qualified Mortgage / Home Buying Process / House Appraised Below the Purchase Price; Now What?\nReader question: \u201cWe just made an offer to buy a house, and our lender then had the property appraised. They said the house appraised for less than the purchase price. What should we do? What options do we have?\u201d\nIt\u2019s a common scenario for home buyers: You find a house that meets all of your requirements. It\u2019s in the right neighborhood. It has all of the right features. And it falls within your price range. So you make an offer to buy it. The seller accepts your offer. Now you can go back to your mortgage lender with a purchase agreement in hand. The lender will send a home appraiser to determine the current market value of the property.\nOh yes, it\u2019s the dreaded home appraisal. And this one delivers bad news!\nThe home appraiser says the house is worth less than the amount you have agreed to pay. In other words, the house did not \u201cmeet appraisal.\u201d What now? Most real estate agents agree that home buyers in this situation should do one of two things:\nFirst, the buyer should ask the seller to lower the sale price to meet the appraisal.\nIf the seller refuses, the buyer should consider walking away from the deal.\nAsk the Seller to Reduce the Price\nThe first thing you should do, as a home buyer, is put the ball back into the seller\u2019s court. Give them a copy of the appraisal report, if you have one. Or just tell them the house appraised below the agreed-upon purchase price.\nExplain that you are not willing to pay more for a house than it is worth in the current market. Or tell them your loan will not go through because of the low appraisal. Make an offer to pay the appraised value, but no more than that. This is the most common strategy used by buyers when a house appraises below the purchase price.\nRequesting Another Appraisal\nAnother option is to request another appraisal from the lender. Some lenders are willing to do this, while others are not.\nIt may help your cause to provide comparable sales data the appraiser may have overlooked. For example, if the appraiser says the house is worth $300,000, but similar homes have sold in the $350,000 range recently, you could present these comparable sales to the mortgage company and request another appraisal. Typically, it\u2019s the seller who does this. But sometimes it is in the buyer\u2019s interest as well. So the buyer can also request that the home be appraised again.\nThe goal here is not to pay more for a house than it is worth. I would never advise that. Your goal, as a home buyer, is to facilitate the process so the deal goes through. At least, if you truly want the house. If you believe the home is worth the amount asked by the seller, you should convey this to the lender and back it up with data. Granted, they might not listen to you. But it\u2019s worth trying.\nWhen to Walk Away From the Deal\nYou need to ask yourself another important question as well. What if the home appraiser is right? Maybe the seller really is asking too much for the house. It\u2019s a common scenario.\nSome sellers base their asking prices on the amount they paid for the house, or the amount they need to pay off their mortgage. But those two numbers have nothing to do with the current market value of the property. That\u2019s what the appraiser is out to determine. He wants to know how much the house is worth in the current real estate market.\nThis is where comparable sales research comes into play. You \u2014 or your real estate agent \u2014 should examine recent home sales in the area, with an eye out for properties that are similar to the one you want to buy. These \u201ccomps\u201d are the key to determining the market value of a particular house.\nIf the comps support the seller\u2019s asking price, the home appraisal might be inaccurate.\nIf the comps support the home appraiser\u2019s valuation, the seller might be asking too much.\nIn most cases, it\u2019s best to walk away from a deal where the homeowner is asking too much for a property.\nInvestors vs. \u2018Regular\u2019 Home Buyers\nThere are certain scenarios where it might make sense to pay a bit more than the appraised value. This is a common strategy among real estate investors in hot markets.\nConsider the real estate market in Southern California, for example. Home prices are rising rapidly in that region, and investors know it. So it\u2019s common for an investor to pay more than the appraised value for a house. In their view, it\u2019s still a good investment because they can turn around and sell it for even more money a few years down the road.\nGranted, most investors pay cash and don\u2019t need the approval of a mortgage lender. Buyers who use mortgages are generally better off paying the current market value for a house, and no more.\nThe Home Appraisal Contingency\nIn closing, we should mention the home appraisal contingency. When you write up an offer to buy a house, the offer can be contingent (or dependent) upon certain events or conditions. For instance, your offer might be contingent upon a successful home inspection. This gives you a way to back out of the contract if the inspector finds serious defects you are unwilling to accept.\nThe same goes for the appraisal. It\u2019s generally wise to include a contract contingency that allows you to back out, if the home appraises below the purchase price. After all, the last thing you want to do is pay more for a house than it is truly worth. That\u2019s a good way to end up with negative equity.",

My Labor Day RAGA Antidote 37 dealt with natural and political hurricanes that hit the USA. I warned against the divisiveness of Vietnam war era coming back to haunt us.\n--Now, A new poll co-sponsored by The Washington Post found that seven in 10 Americans say the nation\u2019s political divisions are at least as big as during the Vietnam War, while nearly 6 in 10 said the Trump presidency is making the U.S. political system more dysfunctional.\n--Meanwhile, in Russia, October 30 was declared a Day of Sorrow for all victims of Communist repression under Soviet rule. President Vladimir Putin, Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia and Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin laid flowers to the Wall of Sorrow, a monument just erected in Moscow for the victims of Communist repression. http://tass.com/society/973243\nWestern media like to talk about Putin's KGB background but fail to mention that he befriended Alexander Solzhenitsyn to whom the US gave refuge for the long 1973-1994 years. Previously Putin laid a wreath to the monument to the prisoners of GULAG and he frequently quotes Solzhenitsyn on the essential issues of today. One might say that US mass media hostility toward New Russia is totally misplaced because, unlike the USSR, Russia of today is more similar to the USA economically and politically-- for better or worse--than ever before.

Given Vladimir Putin\u2019s extraordinary efforts to bring about the conditions of peace both in Ukraine and in Syria, it would seem that he is the most fitting candidate to win a Nobel Peace Prize.

I am rather partial to the people of Texas whom I have always liked for the independence of mind and who treated me well when I lived there. Now I hear that some of my friends' houses were destroyed. In fact, I started my career in Texas, became US citizen, and both of my children were born there. I started as an instructor of Russian Studies at the University of Texas, Austin, then became professor at the SMU in Dallas before moving to Monterey, California in 1978.\nAs if by accident, my UT Austin office was in Robert E Lee Hall. My first thought was how great America was that it managed to heal the trauma of Civil War not by summary execution or endless repression of the defeated, as was done after the civil war in the USSR, but by treating the vanquished fairly, giving them credit for military skills and noble behavior, as the film \"Gone With the Wind\" wonderfully portrays. Moreover, after the demise of the USSR, during the 1990s I went several times to interpret for the US-Russia joint program in Houston NASA Center as part of the International Space Station mission. I am sorry to hear that the NASA building sustained heavy damages.\nHarvey is not just a natural disaster.

Behind the rhetoric of antifa, the Black Bloc and the so-called \u201calt-left\u201d about capitalism, racism, state repression and corporate power is the same lust for violence.\nThe two opposing groups, largely made up of people who have been cast aside by the cruelty of corporate capitalism, have embraced holy war. Their lives, battered by economic misery and social marginalization, have suddenly been filled with meaning. They hold themselves up as the vanguard of the oppressed. They arrogate to themselves the right to use force to silence those they define as the enemy. They sanctify anger.\nEven the heavily anti-Trump The Washington Post turned around and put Antifa's violence on the level with the \"white racists\"\nBY MARC A. THIESSEN, The Washington Post, SEPTEMBER 03, 2017 11:00 AM\nLast weekend in Berkeley, California, a group of neo-communist antifa \u2014 \u201canti-fascist\u201d \u2014 thugs attacked peaceful protesters at a \u201cNo to Marxism in America\u201d rally, wielding sticks and pepper spray, and beating people with homemade shields that read (I kid you not) \u201cNo Hate.\u201d\n...And let\u2019s be clear: Totalitarian is precisely what they are. Mark Bray, a Dartmouth lecturer who has defended antifa\u2019s violent tactics, recently explained in The Post, \u201cIts adherents are predominantly communists, socialists, and anarchists\u201d who believe that physical violence \u201cis both ethically justifiable and strategically effective.\u201d In other words, they are no different from neo-Nazis...\nLast night I watched a weekly news review by Dmitry Kiselev, the anchorman of ROSSIIA TV station. He talked about the withdrowal of the film \"Gone with the Wind\" from a Memphis movie theater. The Orpheum Theatre Group made the decision after patrons took issue with the screening of the movie starring Vivien Leigh as Scarlett O'Hara.\nRead more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4826210/Racially-insensitive-Theater-pulls-Gone-Wind.html#ixzz4rhOaqryi\nKiselev wondered if the Americans of today are not doing what the Russians did 100 years ago with the onset of the Communist \"October\" revolution: by erasing Tsarist monuments they initiated a period of unspeakable violence and nihilistic rage that spared no one, including, in the Stalinist purges two decades later, the most ardent revolutionaries. Kiselev mused in a fatherly tone that we, the Russians, have learned the hard way that hatred and rage is not a way for a better future. Aren't Americans repeating our mistakes?\nNotice also that the Bolshevik usurpation of power in Petrograd hundred years ago in November 1917 was called officially The Great October Socialist Revolution. Yes, the Communists in Russia always portrayed themselves as the vanguard of world revolution, without any national identification. They were against any national tradition, customes, religion, and patriotism; they were for the liberation of humanity from capitalist oppression and imperialist domination. Their ideology was explicitly Western based on the writings of German political thinkers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Their political leaders, Lenin and Stalin, were but transplants of Marx and Engels on Russian soil. That is why when I wrote in the late 1980s my book \"Russia Beyond Communism: A Chronicle of National Rebirth\", I emphasized that for Russia, to move forward, she needs first go back to save and nurture the roots of her pre-revolutionary history and culture, including Russian Christianity, largely erased by the brutal utopian Communist misrule.\nAt about the same time, George Will, a well-known conservative Washington Post columnist, quipped that there were more firely Marxists at Harvard University than in the USSR. Of course, it was an exaggeration, but it underscored the fact that Marxism and Communism are not just Russian or Chinese problem but an intellectual desease of Western civilization with its faith in the omnipotence of scientifically approved violence to resolve all problems of mankind and, certainly, to get rid of capitalism, racism, imperialism, inequality and poverty. As all my academic career was in the States, I knew of wide-spread infestation of academic ranks with such Marxist thinking.\nIn 1978, I published in the conservative \"Modern Age\" magazine an essay titled \"Karl Marx as Dr. Frankenstein\" in which I drew the analogy between Dr. Frankenstein endeavoring to create an artificial man but succeding only in producing a measerable monster and Communist efforts to impose an ideal society by force, but producing only an utopian society controlled by totalitarian rulers and isolated by the Iron Curtain. Mary Shelley envisioned correctly that the misadventure of Western \"science\" will be dumped in the wilderness of Russia and Tartaria. Alas, none of the dozens of attempts to convert Shelley's vision to a film came even close to her spiritual insights: all stayed on the level of horror entertaintment.\nhttps://www.academia.edu/28227073/Karl_Marx_as_Frankenstein_Toward_a_Genealogy_of_Communism_Modern_Age_WINTER_1978_-_VOL._22_NO._1._pp._72-82_Vladislav_Krasnov_-_See_more_at_https_home.isi.org_karl-marx-frankenstein-toward-genealogy-communism_sthash.MmTrb2DQ.dpuf\nIt is wrong to think that the demise of the USSR and dissolution of Soviet Blok put the end to the ravages of Marxist ideological virus. The failures of neo-liberal economics and Neo-Con politics in the US and Europe in the past 25 years can only stimilate the growth of an anti-globalist movement which may rescucitate Marxist ideology of violent world revolution. I hope, however, that those struggling for a just, equitable, free, peaceful and healthy Planet will not resort to violence as their Communist predessors did; and that they will be governed by higher principles and the ideas of such wise and moral people like Lev Tolstoy, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Mandela and John Avery, a more recent Nobel Peace Prize winner from Denmark. I also recommend Dr. Lev Semashko, a Russian anti-Marxist philosopher who 12 years ago founded the Global Harmony Association that unites in a peace movement a number of prominent thinkers from India, UK, Denmark, Kazakhstan, Germany,France, Brasil, Algeria, Israel, the USA, and a dozen more countries. John Avery is one of the GHA's patrons.\nI also recommend a thoughtful and imaginative article by my friend and RAGA associate Israel Shamir. Like myself he is a former Soviet citizen. After emigrating to Israel, he quickly became disenchated with this Zionist \"home for the Jews\". Mr. Shamir has been since a daring, resolute and well-informed critic of Netanyahu's right-wing Zionist policies. Read now about their interplay with the US politics and global situation. Below are some highlights:\nThe Pink Revolution and How to Beat It\nISRAEL SHAMIR \u2022 AUGUST 26, 2017 \u2022 2,200 WORDS \u2022 94 COMMENTS \u2022\nhttp://www.unz.com/ishamir/the-pink-revolution-and-how-to-beat-it/\n<<Colour revolutions usually occur only in the countries blessed with a US diplomatic presence. You need an American embassy to find the perspective ruler to be uplifted by a human swell and placed on the throne; you need an American embassy to bring in enough cash to cover expenses of the organised mayhem; you need an American diplomat to protect the revolutionaries and to order the present dictator to desist. Could it be that there is now an American Embassy in America?\nPeople close to power in the US know or feel the global hegemony. Its bearers are heavily Jewish liberal groups, who use their PC, their hostility to the Church, their approval of gender flux in order to undermine the mind and mentality of an ordinary American, of a redneck, of a working class Goy (as in the Goy, Bye headline). They ceaselessly tease and annoy this goy, in order to cause his premature acts of rebellion to be easily squashed. ..\n... Hegemonists have their own storm troops \u2013 Antifa. This extremist movement was born in Germany. There they walk on the streets on the anniversary of Dresden bombings with Israeli flags and chant: \u201cDeath to Germany! Long live Bomber Harris\u201d (the British commander of the Air Force, a big fan of the carpet bombing of Germany). They managed to terrorize the Germans: as soon as someone objects they call their opponent a Nazi and beat him up. And if they encounter resistance, the police comes to the rescue. That\u2019s why in Germany resistance to the mass inflow of migrants was almost imperceptible. It is spoken about in the kitchen, but not on the streets.\nAnd now Antifa came to America. They have the same mode of action as in Germany. Whoever is against them is a Nazi, or a \u201cwhite racist\u201d. They proved their mettle in Charlottesville, the city blessed with the Jewish mayor who chose the city police. Many Jewish activists came to participate, from as far as Boston. After the scuffle, the newspapers raised a hue and cry: Nazis attack Jews!\nPresident Trump condemned both sides participating in the brawl\u201a both white nationalists and Antifa. It is exactly what his opponents were waiting for. His attempt to stay above the brawl was doomed to defeat: liberal hegemonists immediately branded him a racist and neo-Nazi.\nIt is easier to turn the racism weapon against the adversary, for the Jewish adversary of Trump is as racist as any KKK member is likely to be, or worse. Last week it became known, that in Israel, Jewish settlers established a road sign saying: \u201cThe area where you are located is under Jewish control. The entry of Arabs is absolutely forbidden and constitutes a mortal danger to you!\u201d You couldn\u2019t find such signs in the Deep South even in Jim Crow days! Was there any response from \u201cantiracist\u201d American Jews? (This is a rhetoric question)...\nIf you want to troll them a bit, call for removal of a memorial for a Jewish slave-driver David Levy Yulee, who was called \u201cthe Florida Fire Eater\u201d for his inflammatory pro-slavery rhetoric in the U.S. Senate. He resigned his US Senate seat to support the Confederacy, but his statue still stands high in Fernandia, Amelia Island, Florida, reports Michael Hoffman who notes that neither the ADL nor the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) called for it removal. This is the time to demand Florida to overturn its (year 2000) designation of Yulee a \u201cGreat Floridian\u201d.\nI\u2019d advise president Trump: Appeal to the better side of human nature. If your fellow Americans want less racism, give it to them \u2013 by rejecting Zionism. And proceed with your agenda.>>\nLyndon LaRouche on August 30 called for a \"sea change\" in policy \"right now.\" He called for the immediate creation of a national credit institution for new, high-technology infrastructure, like that employed by Franklin Roosevelt when the vast majority of our current infrastructure was built. There is no alternative to creating a national credit institution, like that employed by Alexander Hamilton and in accord with our Constitution, to fund the necessary trillions in new infrastructure investment. There must also be action on reinstating Glass-Steagall banking separation right now, as a new financial crisis looms and Wall Street speculation continues to prevent actual productive investment. Allowing Wall Street to eliminate the Glass-Steagall Act in the 1990s led to a crash that caused $10 trillion in lost wealth, mass unemployment, and untold loss and shortening of human lives.\nEd Lozansky writes in The Washington Times about \"Lost opportunity\" in US-Russia relations after the collapse of the USSR: By Edward Lozansky - - Tuesday, August 29, 2017 ANALYSIS/OPINION: <<Are we preparing for the war with Russia over Ukraine? That\u2019s how it looks if you saw in the news how U.S. Marines regularly do simulated battles with Russian-speaking insurgents. This is taking place in North Carolina and Germany, but the assumed country is Ukraine, where some American troops have established a combat training center staffed by Ukrainians and reportedly capable of hosting an entire brigade. While the Pentagon, the State Department and Congress are pushing for the sale of \u201clethal defensive weapons\u201d to Ukraine, the U.S. Navy is establishing in the former Russian Black Sea port of Ochakov (now Ukraine) a center \u201cto deliver flexible maritime capabilities throughout the full range of military operations.\u201d>>\nEd is right: <<When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, America had a historic opportunity to transform its top enemy into an ally, thus repeating two successful parallel experiences with Germany and Japan.

George Krasnow Ph.D.\nLast time I wrote was Independence Day. In respect for a Summer break, I wanted to wait for the Labor Day in September. However, the events in the USA prompt an early intervention. It's the Charlottesville. Some people suggestively abbreviate it to Cville-- War. I don't like what happened there nor the bitter aftermath when the mishandling of the clash between Alt-Right and Antifa people by the local police is being used as part of the incessant vicious campaign to unseat President Trump.\nRAGA eschews party politics. We take the high road of metapolitics: we stand above partisan bickering. Or, call it megapolitics, for our urgent goal is the survival and well-being of our Planet. This can hardly be achieved without the USA and Russia respectfully talking to each other, without shouting and name calling. For this to happen, both countries need to have a degree of maturity and domestic health. Strangely, now it appears that, while Russia stays calm and stable in spite of the vicious Western economic sanctions, the United States is less united as more people resort to verbal and actual violence at home and ignore US violence abroad.\nAs I pointed out in the newsletter right after the presidential election, Trump was elected fair and square by the majority vote against the enormous odds as of the money-establishment MSM supported the other side. Whether we like him or not, we have to give him respect and support that our Constitution requires so that he could carry out his duties. Instead, the MSM harps at him for suggesting an even-handed course to stem violence between the radical Right and the revolutionary Left.\nThe best article I have seen about the lack of even-handed approach to the current civil strife is Peter Beinart 's The Rise of the Violent Left. Antifa\u2019s activists say they\u2019re battling burgeoning authoritarianism on the American right. Are they fueling it instead? SEPTEMBER 2017 ISSUE\nBeinart suggests that, while venting all its ire against the \"racist\" Alt-right, the left-liberal media have been coddling Antifa . Personally, I don't believe that the majority of those who are against the removal of Confederate memorials are racist. They are patriotic American citizens who want to make sure the horrors of civil war of 1861-65 stay behind us. Beinart points to a more serious source of trouble, The Antifa.\nBeinart disputes Antifa's democratic credentials the media is eager to bestow on them. \"Since antifa is heavily composed of anarchists, its activists place little faith in the state, which they consider complicit in fascism and racism. They prefer direct action: They pressure venues to deny white supremacists space to meet. They pressure employers to fire them and landlords to evict them. And when people they deem racists and fascists manage to assemble, antifa\u2019s partisans try to break up their gatherings, including by force\".\nBeinart points to dangerous dynamics: \"To most left-wing activists during the Clinton, Bush, and Obama years, deregulated global capitalism seemed like a greater threat than fascism.Trump has changed that. For antifa, the result has been explosive growth\".\nUnderstandably, \"Trump supporters and white nationalists see antifa\u2019s attacks as an assault on their right to freely assemble... The result is a level of sustained political street warfare not seen in the U.S. since the 1960s\".\nWell, I witnessed the Vietnam era's student warfare at the University of Washington campus in Seattle when it claimed the largest number of clandestine bomb explosions in the nation, when anti-Communist professors were molested while \"progressive\" professors taught courses on home-made bombs. Do we want it to happen again?\nBeinart accuses the liberal establishment of siding with Antifa as \"this fuels the fears of Trump supporters, who suspect that liberal bastions are refusing to protect their right to free speech...Antifa believes it is pursuing the opposite of authoritarianism...But in the name of protecting the vulnerable, antifascists have granted themselves the authority to decide which Americans may publicly assemble and which may not. That authority rests on no democratic foundation\", Beinart concludes.\nAs self-proclaimed defenders of the poor and disenfranchised, Antifa is mired in Marxist class struggle and violent world revolution utopia. They are on the way to becoming totalitarians, for their ideological progenitors are the Bolsheviks in Russia who claimed they were defending minorities and poor people against the Tsarist police, \"black hundreds\" and \"anti-Semites,\" but as soon as they seized power they showed the world what a truly totalitarian rule is like.\nI am writing this from a small provincial Russian town. I am squeezed in the mid of Sverdlov, Volodarsky and Uritsky streets so named after Bolshevik revolutionary terrorists. All three were Jews who renounced Judaism to help create the atheist Bolshevik regime which suppressed all religions and, among other things, forbade Jews to study Hebrew. Yes, the main street here is Lenin's. His bulky monument still dominates the town square. On August 19, it turned 26 years since the USSR fell apart. Communist experiment ended miserably as Russia turned 180 degrees back to capitalism, imperfect as it was and is. Of course, many dwellers here fret about Lenin's stature and want historical names restored to the streets, but they also understand the need to be patient for the sake of public tranquility.\nDo the United States need to go through a similar violent experiment? I think not. Therefore, leave the history alone, do not try to re-write it backward. To honor heroes of the Other Side is wise and noble as it wins time to sort things out.\nOn the other hand, Lenin's oversize stature in Seattle, brought there in 1995 from a garage sale in one of former Communist countries, got to go. It should not be destroyed. It should be moved to a museum and carefully preserved as a reminder of the greatest folly of the 20th century. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2017/08/19/in-seattle-people-are-protesting-monuments-to-the-confederacy-and-communism/?utm_term=.09f6819b6775\nI don't want to sound alarmist, but there are some prominent people who worry about the future of the US. \"America is under attack from within. Our culture, our history, our founding are under the most direct assault I have seen in my life... You might even get away with saying that we are on the cusp of a second civil war\", says Rush Limbaugh\nhttp://www.breitbart.com/video/2017/08/18/rush-limbaugh-cusp-second-civil-war/\nTo see how the Bolsheviks undermined and distorted Russian culture, I recommend you read Professor Philip Jenkins' extraordinary perceptive article \"Remembering the Old Russia\"\n\"This Fall marks the centennial of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution. Although few commentators today are likely to glorify that event or its aftermath, most will assume that the revolution was a regrettable necessity, which swept away a repressive and stagnant ancient regime. Such a view is false. Culturally and spiritually, that lost pre-revolutionary Russia was a treasure house, and indeed a birthplace of the modern West. The grim view we hold of Russia\u2019s old Christian world is one of the last triumphs of Soviet propaganda\", says Jenkins.\nhttp://www.chroniclesmagazine.org/2017/September/41/9/magazine/article/10840736/\nI found Jenkins' article so consonant with RAGA's philosophy that I immediately translated it into Russian for the benefit of Russian readers who may not be so knowlegeable about Russia's contribution to world culture as the author is. \u0412\u0441\u043f\u043e\u043c\u0438\u043d\u0430\u044f \u0426\u0430\u0440\u0441\u043a\u0443\u044e \u0420\u043e\u0441\u0441\u0438\u044e (Remembering the Old Russia). http://perevodika.ru/articles/1196068.html\nSpeaking of modern art, on July 9, 2017, the outstading Russian painter Ilya Glazunov passed away. As I have known him since 1957 when he clandestinately showed his art to dissident students of Moscow State University, I wrote an article in his memory focused on the prophetic thrust of his art. To those who read Russian, here it is http://www.litrossia.ru/item/10268-vladislav-krasnov-fenomen-geroicheskogo-vyzhivaniya-russkogo-khudozhnika\nMy main source for the Russian article was in English:\nVladislav Krasnov, \u201cIl\u2019ia Glazunov's Russian Nationalism: Notes from Two Exhibits\u201d, Acta Slavica Iaponica. 1985.\nhttps://www.academia.edu/26799477/Ilia_Glazunovs_Russian_Nationalism_Notes_from_Two_Exhibits\nIn that article I reviewed what regular Soviet visitors wrote about Glazunov's \"Russian nationalism\" art when the government reluctantly allowed two huge exhibits of his art in Moscow (1978) and Leningrad (1979). After analysing the two books of visitors' comments that were smuggled to the West, I came to the conclusion that a huge majority admired Glazunov's non-Communist art, found his nationalism benign and fully justified in stressing the need for Russia to come back to its Christian roots. This message was roundly ignored in the West, so in 1991, before the collapse of the USSR, I wrote \"Russia Beyond Communism: A Chronicle of National Rebirth\". The process of building a nation-state in Russia has been going on ever since despite all US efforts to suborn it to New World Order.\nBelow are other remarkable items waiting for your attention:\nIntel Vets Challenge \u2018Russia Hack\u2019 Evidence By VIPS.July 25, 2017\nMEMORANDUM FOR: The President (Donald Trump)\nSUBJECT: Was the \u201cRussian Hack\u201d an Inside Job?\nAfter examining metadata from the \u201cGuccifer 2.0\u201d July 5, 2016 intrusion into the DNC server, independent cyber investigators have concluded that an insider copied DNC data onto an external storage device, and that \u201ctelltale signs\u201d implicating Russia were then inserted.http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/47516.htm#.WXf6ey-aqCE.email\nThe Saker of The Unz Review sees the main source of trouble in the Neo-Con influence.

Max Greenwood, The Hill, July 7, 2017\nA majority of the world's countries voted at the United Nations on Friday to adopt a global treaty banning nuclear weapons. The vote marks the first time in history that a majority of countries moved to approve a binding instrument prohibiting nuclear weapons. In all, 122 nations voted in favor of the treaty, while only one, the Netherlands, voted against it. Singapore abstained. The treaty is intended to bar countries from developing, testing, manufacturing, acquiring or even possessing any kind of nuclear weapon.\nNot part of the treaty negotiations, however, were the world's nuclear powers, including the United States, France, the United Kingdom and Russia \u2014 all permanent members of the U.N. Security Council \u2014 who argued that the treaty was unrealistic and that countries like North Korea would not cooperate. The vote was celebrated by arms control groups as a first step for eliminating nuclear arms. http://portside.org/2017-07-08/un-adopts-treaty-banning-nuclear-weapons-despite-us-opposition\nAbout which, Sharon Tennison, a veteran peace fighter, writes:\n\"What can wake us up?

Without doubt any left living would envy those who had died. Does this make the urgings of both Republican and Democrat Congress members to \u201cget tough\u201d on Russia seem like the height of insanity?\"\nSharon has an impressive group travel experience.

It appears that Russians have quietly been reborn in this 21st century.

Although few commentators today are likely to glorify that event or its aftermath, most will assume that the revolution was a regrettable necessity, which swept away a repressive and stagnant ancient regime. Such a view is false. Culturally and spiritually, that lost pre-revolutionary Russia was a treasure house, and indeed a birthplace of the modern West. The grim view we hold of Russia\u2019s old Christian world is one of the last triumphs of Soviet propaganda.\nThat is nowhere more true than in the case of the Russian Orthodox Church, which is so often portrayed as a haven of obscurantism and anti-Jewish hatred. In fact, most of the episcopate strove to discredit and suppress antisemitic propaganda. Meanwhile, the country was in the midst of a general spiritual revival, with rising levels of literacy among peasants and a publishing boom in devotional literature. The church made serious inroads among industrial workers through a series of charismatically led reform movements preaching a kind of social-gospel activism. The legendary St. John of Kronstadt was only the most celebrated of many locally famous holy men and women.\nThe church boasted a thriving cultural life, as most intellectuals and artists were suffused with its imagery and traditions, even if they rejected its political authority. Many proclaimed themselves Bogoiskateli, \u201cGod seekers.\u201d In 1915, Sergei Rachmaninoff produced in his choral \u201cAll-Night Vigil\u201d one of the greatest musical accomplishments in modern religious history. Nikolai Berdyaev was a groundbreaking philosopher, a radical pioneer of Christian existentialism. The Orthodox Russia that entered the war looked as if it were beginning an epoch of cultural achievement equal to any in its storied past.\n\u200bHistorians commonly draw a sharp division between such achievements of the old order and the dazzling triumphs of modernism, which they commonly associate with the revolutionary world. In this view, 1917 represents a watershed, a glorious transition to modernity. Again, that is a pernicious myth. Well before this date, Russian artists and musicians were already key pioneers of modern literature, art, music, and design, and they drew overwhelmingly on Christian traditions. However radical it might appear in retrospect, experimental modernity was rooted in a thoroughly Orthodox thought-world of angels, apocalypse, and icons.\nAlready in 1916, Russia had produced the greatest urban apocalypse of the era. Andrei Bely\u2019s novel Petersburg resembles the work of Joyce in its daring experimentation, and in its enormous influence on later literature. The book depicts pre-war St. Petersburg as a society on the verge of explosions, literal and metaphorical, a city living at the end of the world. It is also a city under the eye of angels, where the devil walks the streets. The statue of a horseman is a pervasive symbol, obviously suggesting one of the four horsemen of Revelation. Only in whispers can Bely\u2019s characters discuss the real issue at hand: \u201cthe Second Coming of Christ.\u201d\n\u200bAlthough Bely apparently never met the Moscow-born painter Wassily Kandinsky, the work of each man often echoed the other\u2019s interests in angels and imminent judgment. In 1912, Kandinsky edited the pivotal manifesto Der Blaue Reiter Almanach, which cultural historians regard as an epochal movement in European modernism, bringing together the most innovative German and Russian artists of the day. But we lose the religious significance of the name when we translate it \u201cThe Blue Rider.\u201d It actually refers to a bluehorseman, and the movement was born as a protest against a gallery\u2019s decision to reject a Kandinsky painting of the Last Judgment. That Orthodox-framed cosmic finale lay at the heart of European modernism.\nNatalia Goncharova, Archangel Michael, 1910\n\u200bAnother angel-obsessed member of the school was Russian painter Natalia Goncharova who in 1910 created her stunning image of the Archangel Michael, the leader of the heavenly hosts. Although an advanced modernist, her work draws heavily on Russian icon traditions. In 1915, she designed sets for Sergei Diaghilev\u2019s planned ballet Liturgy, which was to feature such ancient images as the six-winged seraphs, with music based on Orthodox liturgical themes.\nMentioning Diaghilev suggests the enormous Russian contribution to modernist music, as avant-garde Europeans venerated such titanic innovators as Igor Stravinsky and Alexander Scriabin. But Stravinsky in particular was a devout Orthodox believer, who famously remarked that \u201cMusic praises God. Music is well or better able to praise him than the building of the church and all its decoration; it is the Church\u2019s greatest ornament.\u201d Obviously, Stravinsky did not return to Bolshevik Russia after 1917, nor did many of the key modernists. The gullible modernists who did choose Bolshevik rule usually ended up silenced or murdered.\nWhen we struggle past the Bolshevik myths, we must give full credit to that old Christian Russia for inventing the modern West, and the modern mind.\nThis article first appeared in the September 2017 issue of Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture (www.chroniclesmagazine.org).\nPhilip Jenkins is in 2013 the Distinguished Professor of History at Baylor University in the United States, and Co-Director for Baylor's Program on Historical Studies of Religion in the Institute for Studies of Religion",

        "raw_content": "The writer's malady is that you eventually lose some of your ability to just sit back and enjoy something without analyzing it (and usually finding fault). I don't usually do this. I can generally get through the first viewing of anything without \"thinking\" about it (if I couldn't, I wouldn't be able to watch Prison Break). I just enjoy the ride (because that is the point). On a second or third viewing , if not the second the end credits roll, I start looking at things. I generally look at how things are functioning and why and not so much at what I might have done differently. If it was different, it wouldn't be what it is (if I may get a little discount Zen on you) and it frequently starts some dominoes to fall. There was a scene in Battlestar Galactica: \"Exodus, Part Two\" that did make me think about doing it differently and how it would change the way things fall. I decided to explore this a little and look at a couple of other things while I'm at it.\nIf you're going to try to read this post, you will simply have to have seen this episode. If you don't watch the show, I'm kinda wondering why you even come here. It's fantastic TV and great writing...and for aspiring writers, the podcast commentaries make this show a real education. Speaking of which...\nRon Moore's commentary on \"Exodus, Part Two\"\nEpisode written by\nDavid Weddle & Bradley Thompson\nI watched this episode of Battlestar Galactica twice, for a specific reason, but I would probably have rewatched this one anyway. It was good. Not that \"oh, this is so-well crafted\" good, but the \"damn, that was kewl!\" good. With the k and the w and everything.\nThe second viewing came at a friend's house as we had about 45 minutes to kill before meeting up with some people and he hadn't seen it yet. In watching it, I came to view the last scene of the teaser and first scene of act one a little differently than I had before. While I would have come to the same thought eventually, I think it's worth noting that I came to it now because I was watching it with someone who hadn't seen it yet and I had. When this happens, I often start thinking about how the other person is perceiving the scene. Are they seeing things differently than I had? Are they seeing the telegraph I didn't or vice versa? This, however, is not the point.\nThe point is about writing choices. I thought about how differently Saul's poisoning of Ellen would have played had Anders come to him about handling Ellen after he'd already taken care of the matter. As it plays, with Anders making the point that it would be better for her if Saul takes care of it himself, the first scene back becomes fairly obvious. I like a little element of the unexpected. It's wrong to say that something has to have that element to be good. It's still a fantastic scene. The difference is how you view that death. With an element of surprise, you're either close to Ellen's viewpoint (or right in it if you choose to believe she knows it's coming) or you're the fly. Knowing what Saul's going to do puts you more in his position. You are better able to empathize with him (though my viewing partner had a more cheerful reaction to the events). A little bit of the-journey-not-the-destination, you know.\nI would have written it with Anders coming in after the poisoning. I think Saul was resigned to doing it before Anders spoke to him, so I don't think I needed the scene to push him into action. I want to put the viewer through a different ride in Saul's head. Two rides. How does he react when Ellen tells him all the things she's done for him, including the things he didn't already know about? The poisoning comes as a more unexpected thing and gives the scene a second layer in review. Anders coming in after shows us that he didn't do it from anger, but from mercy and so is still needed.\nScene order isn't just about plot or continuity.\nAnother thing I want to hit in this episode is writing scenes without actors (in the conventional sense). Most shows, you just don't get to do this. In \"Exodus, Part 2,\" there's a scene that relies on effects, but is intercut with actors (Galactica's descent into the atmosphere). Another scene...or shot...is entirely CGI (though preceded by a great Adama moment) and that's the one I'm looking at now. That's when the lone Battlestar, Galactica, is besieged by four basestars, taking hits from every angle and rocking with every impact. Slowly we pull away as the barrages become worse. We know that Pegasus will come to the rescue, but we keep pulling away until Galactica is very small and very damaged and in that striking shot, that one second, we consider (and this draws a little on the show's record of doing the unexpected) that maybe Galactica really is done for. Then that missile spins in from off-screen ahead of Pegasus.\nThere's a few elements at work here. The metahistory of the show for one. When you watch a show and they zig time after time, the zig becomes the zag and the zag is now zig (or other way around). It's the art of using the viewer's second-guessing you against him or herself. Can you use this in a spec script? I wouldn't advise it. Your spec is not the show and using a zig as a zag just comes off as a zig. If the show you spec usually zigs, then just zig. Or, you know, zag for zag.\nThere are, of course, actors in this scene. They're just not of the sort that appear on the screen and speak lines or express with their faces and bodies. The effects artists and editors have all the responsibility. Timing is crucial here, and you can't really script timing. You can try, but it's completely out of your hands. That's something worth remembering as you write. There's a lot that's out of your hands, no matter what you write.\nThe scene is what it is not because of the writer, but because of everyone who comes into contact with it.\nNow, that Galactica descent scene. It reminds us that for all the emotion and the clever dialogue and the turns of plot, there's not much that can match up the just doing a really cool trick. My co-viewer had much the same reaction I did as the red-hot Galactica dropped like a brick through the atmosphere of New Caprica. \"It can't fly in an atmosphere, can it? Naw!\" The Vipers scream out of the smoking behemoth and we realize that the Galactica is by no means flying and is about to crush the \"city\" below like a big burning brick.\nAdama gives the order.\n\"Jump.\"\nMy Gods, as Roslin might say. That was just cool for the sake of being cool and there is indescribable value in that. Anyone who didn't at least lurch in their seat, if not jump out of it, on the sheer awesome of that moment is dead inside. As much as writers might want to be able to get the moment of truth or whatever you want to call it in a story, equally as difficult and as noble a goal is to get that visceral reaction you only get from just doing...something...cool. Sometimes you can do it with words. Sometimes not so much.\nMoving the viewer should be taken literally as much as figuratively.",

Man has always considered the ocean as an infinite resource beyond the scope of our control, after all, it covers seven-tenths of the earth's surface. We are just now understanding the delicate nature of our oceans and to the irreversible damage we have inflicted upon them. Both in developed and undeveloped countries throughout the world the ocean has been treated as a dumping ground for waste products. In the case of the USA and the former USSR we have even gone so far as to dump tons of radioactive material into the sea. Somewhere we have lost our connection forgetting the most obvious, that we depend on healthy oceans for survival. The oceans can no longer hide our dirty secrets and are telling us that we should treat them as if they were the source of our next drink of water. Coral reefs are the most diverse marine eco-systems on the planet and are found only in the tropical zones of the planet. Corals require clean, clear, nutrient free water in which to live. Because corals are stationary animals, they are only as healthy as the water that passes over them. In this sense they become the barometers to the health the sea. Many of the coral reefs in the world are disappearing, victims of disease and deterioration. We must keep in mind that coral reefs have been on the planet for hundreds of millions of years. This report is focused on Elkhorn coral and the restoration attempts by Reef Relief during the period of February 25 to December 1, 1998.",

        "raw_content": "Deb's side of the family (the Tidmore/Walter side) has a fascinating history, too. The narrative below, from Deb's Mom, provided the core info for the Walter Family History, to which, in 2014, I was able to add a good bit of information from online and genealogical research. The completed Walter Family History narrative (18 Mb PDF), was titled \"A Young Girl's Story\" (in German).\nTo start us off, an audio tape introduced by Deb's sister, Sigrid, and recorded by Deb's Mom, Hannelore (\"Pete\") Walter (later Tidmore, then Wilson) ::\nHANNELORE WALTER | RECOLLECTIONS | 1930-1949\nHere are some of Deb's Mom's recollections of growing up as a young girl in Germany, before, during and after World War II ::\nSpring, 2002: My children and grandchildren have been asking me for a long time to put a record of my life on paper. I am now 71 years old and feel that time is getting shorter, and that I had better get busy! After all, I am the only one who can remember \u2018way back when\u2019, since I grew up in Germany; my parents are both long gone; and most people in my immediate family are no longer with us, or have a hard time communicating in English. So this will be a family history of what I can remember, and what has been related to me.\n- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -\nMy Dad\u2019s parents, Reinhold and Clara Walter, were living in Breslau [now Wroclaw, Poland], capital of the Province of Silesia [also now largely a part of Poland]. Reinhold Walter was employed as an adviser to the mayor of Breslau, a pretty good job. My Dad was born on 11 December 1897. He had one older brother, Max, two older sisters, Grete and Clara, and one younger brother, Fritz. I don\u2019t recall much about my Dad\u2019s siblings; I know they all married and had children, but due to the war and absence of close communication, we all lost track of each other. I do know that Uncle Max and his wife, Tante Maria, died soon after the end of the war. They had three children, two boys and a daughter. The oldest, Helmut, became a major in the German Army during the war. He married, and to the best of my knowledge had five children. I know that after the war he joined the German Bundeswehr and was stationed near Munich.\nWho is still living, I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m sure some of the children must still be alive. His younger son was a fighter pilot during the war and was killed during the battle of Britain early on. The daughter, Ruth, was a little older than me; she also married and was last known to live somewhere in Berlin, in what at the end of the war was the Russian sector.\nMy father\u2019s sisters were all virtually unknown to me. Even during the time that I lived with my father, there was very little contact with them. His younger brother, Fritz, married and had two children, a daughter and son. They, as well as my dad\u2019s sisters, lived in what was later to become East Germany (now, eastern Germany). I believe I met all of them as a very young child and received birthday and Christmas cards, but that all ceased by the end of the war. Uncle Fritz was an Infantry soldier during the war. He fought in terrible battles on the Russian Front, was reported missing during the later part of the war, and was never heard from again. After the war ended he was declared dead.\nMy Dad, according to his telling, was brought up in a rather strict home and attended all the right schools. When the First World War broke out, he could not wait to join and when he was 18 he finally entered the German Army as a 2nd Lieutenant. He saw action on both the Eastern and Western fronts, and after Germany's defeat at the hands of the Allies he was discharged. He drifted from job to job, down at heart because of the defeat, and the demoralizing times that followed. Germany went through a period of severe inflation, where any money you had was totally devalued. I remember stories where my grandparents literally picked up wash-baskets full of money at the bank, and by the time they brought it home it was worth half its value. Million Mark banknotes were common.\nDad had several jobs, none of them too successful, since all he had ever learned was soldiering. Amongst them was a stint in the Reichswehr, a sort of military police force. Through that he became involved in a coup d\u2019etat, which landed him for a short time in jail as a political prisoner.\nBefore that, however, he had met my mother. From what I gather, it was love at first sight. She must have been just 16 years old, because when they were married a year later [1925] she was only 17. Her name was Kaethe Kunisch, born on 29 May 1908; thus, 11 years younger than her husband. As for their appearance, two more different people are hard to imagine. My Dad was tall [he must have been over 6 feet], very muscular and heavy boned, auburn haired, with blue eyes. My mother was the opposite: tiny, small of stature, blond hair and blue eyes. From all reports, I gather that she was the love of his life and he absolutely adored her. She was the younger daughter of Robert and Emma Kunisch. Her older sister, Gertrude [later known as Tante Trude] was born in 1905.\nHer parents lived in Schmiedeberg, a popular tourist spot, located at the foot of the Riesengebirge, a beautiful medium-high mountain range that attracted wanderers from near and far. Kaethe\u2019s parents ran a rather well-known hotel and restaurant [with mother Kunisch as head of the kitchen]; it was said to be a favorite eating place with locals as well as tourists. When Grandfather Kunisch died in 1919, soon after the end of the First World War, Emma tried to run the hotel by herself for a while. This is where, according to tales I've heard, my Dad met my mother in 1926 and the rest, as they say, is history. The hotel, which became too much for my Grandmother to run, was given up, and my Grandmother opened a small boarding house, where she served dinner to guests, especially tourists and business people.\nI never knew much about my Mom's side of the family. I do know that her mother\u2019s family owned a small farm in Pomerania, a county in northern Germany, east of the Oder-Neisse line, land which, at the end of World War II, was annexed by Poland. [These border provinces, including Silesia, have a varied history, through the centuries belonging to Prussia, Hungary-Austria, Poland, Germany and Russia (Poland, as country, came into being after 1918)]. I remember Oma Kunisch once in a while visiting \u2018Ur-Oma\u2019 and bringing back some of the best farm bread home I had ever tasted.\nAfter a short courtship my Dad and Mother married in 1927. At that time my Dad was working as a farm machinery salesman for Krupp, the well-known steel manufacturer that later was famous, or rather infamous, as Germany\u2019s main weapons supplier. (Today, we know it as Thyssen-Krupp; you see their name on elevators all the time.) There are some pictures of my Dad at a farm convention, posing in front of Krupp's exhibit booth. According to all information I have, it was an exceedingly happy marriage. Times were rough in every aspect, but they had each other.\nThree years later, on 27 February 1930, I was born. My mother, who I called \"Mutti,\" was not quite 22 years old, my Dad, who I called \"Vati,\" was 33. The nurses at the hospital called her \u2018the child with the child\u2019 [this is according to Oma Kunisch, who was there at the time.] I was baptized on 19 April 1930 at the St. Trinitatis Church in Breslau and given the name Hannelore Klara Emma Walter, my two middle names after my grandmothers. Deep in his heart my Dad must have secretly hoped for a boy, for soon I was given the nickname \u2018Peter\u2019 [Pete] and the only time I was called by my given name was when I got into some kind of trouble (which was often!) and I'd hear, \u2018Hannelore, where are you?\u2019 I knew immediately what that meant.\nMy time in Breslau (1930-1935) is rather vague to me. After all, I was very young. Supposedly, I was beginning to live up to my nickname by being a real tomboy. We lived on the 3rd floor of an apartment house, as most European city-dwellers did at that time. I recall a big old walnut tree in the garden downstairs, and the walnuts falling each autumn. Instead of the walnuts looking the way you see them in the store, in nature they have a hard green outer shell and were hard to get open. They also really stained your fingers.\nI also remember a short time before Christmas or my birthday Mutti being very mysterious about working on something, which turned out to be a wall hanging over my bed and matching runner and cloths for the Chester drawer and table, embroidered with an array of jungle animals such as monkeys, elephants, giraffes and palms. I loved it, and was fascinated by it.\nIt was a strange time all around. Germany, being defeated in World War I, was a country with no hope. There were no jobs; people had lost their money to inflation and armies of discontents roamed the streets, putting the staid buergers (upper-class) and others in fear of their lives. Governments toppled constantly, no one knew where one's loyalty belonged; there was no country to be proud of. Germany had been shamed before the whole world. So the time was ripe for somebody with a certain charisma, determination and ruthlessness to take over. It had started in small cells, first in Munich, and than all over the country. Bloody fights broke out, especially between the far right (the Communists) and the National Socialist Party (Nazis for short). But the latter gave people more hope, were more patriotically-minded, and promised jobs for everyone. Most importantly, they promised that Germans could hold their heads up again and take their rightful place among other countries. So on a fateful day in January, 1930, elections were held and Hitler's Nazi Party won by a big majority. Field Marshal von Hindenburg, who headed the current government, declared Hitler the new Reichskanzler [Chancellor of the country] and after a new Cabinet was formed, Hitler began with his promised Aufbau, or Reconstruction.\nOne of the first items on Hitler's agenda was the establishment of a modest German army, one that would later grow to gigantic proportions. My father, being a former military man, again was able to become what he wanted most to be -- a soldier. Soon my Dad entered the new German Forces as a 1st Lieutenant. He was assigned to an Infantry Regiment stationed at Neisse, a mid-sized, rather provincial town known mainly for having been the favorite fortress of Frederick the Great of Prussia, who lived from 1712-1786. Frederick was a well-beloved ruler, affectionately was called \u2018Der Alte Fritz\u2019 by his subjects. His religious tolerance was well known, and he is credited with the saying that \"there are many ways to get to heaven.\" He implemented many social reforms and also introduced the potato to Europe. Soon after succeeding his father, he immediately invaded Silesia, then a possession of Austria, ruled by the Empress Maria-Therese. This was the time when Europe was literally ruled by three women -- Katherine the Great of Russia, Maria-Therese of Austria and the infamous Madame Pompadour, the mistress of Louis XIV of France, who was known to be the power behind the French Throne. Frederick liked none of them and called them \u2018the three old petticoats.\u2019 He waged 3 wars with Austria. The last and longest gave him permanent possession of Silesia. [Poland never owned Silesia and if all things were equal, the only state to have a real claim to it would be Austria].\nBut so much for my short detour into history! My Dad\u2019s return to military service and his subsequent assignment to Neisse entailed a move for our family from Breslau. This must have been about 1934 or early 1935. We rented an apartment on a nice quite street with a small park in front of it. That is about all remember of this time because it was to be cut rather short. At the beginning of September 1935 I contracted diphtheria, in those days a very dreaded disease, since no preventive inoculations had yet been discovered. I was rushed to the hospital, where I was put in isolation and in rapid succession received two rather painful injections in my behind. I recovered rather quickly, however, and during my stay I remember looking out of my window and seeing my Mom and Dad downstairs (since I was in quarantine), waiving at me; and my receiving a bunch of beautiful hothouse grapes from them -- all for me!\nSoon, I was released and sent home, but told to stay in bed for another week or so. Much to my surprise, just a few days afterward, a strange nurse came to my room, dressed me and told me that I had suffered a relapse and had to go back to the hospital. Downstairs waited an ambulance, and I found out I was not going alone, but my mother was going, too, and was obviously in bad shape. She had also contracted the dreaded disease; whether from me or someone else, I don\u2019t know. The rumor was that I had been released too early and had infected her. What a tale to tell a young child! At the hospital my mother and I were in the same room, she obviously feeling very ill, because she would not talk to me or answer my questions.\nThat night, sometime in the middle, I was suddenly awakened, bundled up and carried across the yard to another building. Any questions as to why and how my Mom was doing were not answered and put aside. As I found out later, my Mom had turned critical. They performed a tracheotomy on her, but too late, and some time during the night she died. The day was the 26th of September, 1935. I remained in the hospital for another week or so, but no family members were allowed to see me, and the nurses were more than evasive about answering questions. Everybody just seemed overly nice to me.\nThe day came when I was told that I could go home and that my dad would come by to pick me up. I was dressed and brought downstairs where my Dad waited for me with a military coach drawn by two horses and a soldier at the reins. He also evaded my questions about my Mom, and only told me \"later'\u2019. We took a short ride out in the countryside, where he stopped the coach. We got out, walked a little, and then sat down by the side of the path. This is where he told me about my Mom. To be honest, it did not come home to me what it all meant until much, much later. At that moment I was somehow more interested in the horses pulling the coach, and whether I would be allowed to take the reins!\nThen, we went home, and at the apartment I found Oma Kunisch [my Mom's mother] and Tante Trude [my Mom\u2019s sister] waiting for us, both dressed in deep black and crying a lot. Again, I was more exited that they had come to visit and brought me a little toy wooden washtub with clothespins and some new cloths for my doll. I remember sitting on the floor and the grown-ups doing a lot of talking, but it all went completely over my head. It was decided between them that I would go home with them for a while until my future was decided; my Dad, being in the military, certainly was not able to care for a five-year-old all by himself.\nBefore we left, we went to the German Military Cemetery where my mother was buried. That day, and about two or three years later, are the only times I remember visiting the grave. [By the way, nothing remains of her grave site today; after Poland assumed sovereignty, all German cemeteries were flattened and erased.] There are some pictures in my photo album of the grave and the grave stone, but that is all that remains. So I said good-bye to my Dad, and boarded the train to Schmiedeberg with Oma Kunisch and Tante Trude.\nOma Kunisch had a small walk-up apartment with a really small kitchen; walk-thru combination dining and living room; a very tiny side room, like a large cupboard that was Oma\u2019s domain; and a bedroom which Tante Trude, her daughter Sigrid [who was born in 1932, two years my junior] and I shared. So there certainly was not too much room and my coming and staying for an undetermined time must have put a strain and everybody. Times were hard. Oma Kunisch also rented 2 separate small bedrooms from her landlord, which she in turn rented out to boarders or repeat tourists, who came every year in summer to enjoy the good air and the beautiful mountains. Also, as was common in those days, there was only running cold water in the kitchen. The toilet was an outhouse. Though clean, it was terribly cold in winter, especially if you had to utilize it during the night.\nThe one redeeming feature of Oma's place was a beautiful large old garden that must have stretched for a mile [or at least, so it seemed to us kids]. Oma Kunisch's vegetable garden supplied a lot of fresh produce for her table and we kids had a great time playing there. Since there were quite a few other children around our age we never were bored. Our favorite game, some reason, was Cowboys and Indians. To this day I am still being accused of tying Sigrid to a make-believe totem pole, leaving her there and calmly appearing at the supper table. Somebody finally must have heard her and untied her -- and I had to pay for it! Maybe Tante Trude\u2019s insistence that I was \u2018a bad influence on my little cousin\u2019 originated there. Anyhow, I have never lived it down, even to this day!\nOccasionally, Tante Trude worked as a bank teller in a local bank. Her husband [of a very short time] died the year following my Mom's death, and she was required to support herself and her daughter. So she left every morning on a bus to get to work and returned in the evening. Oma Kunisch not only had to take care of two small children all day long, but also had to cook for her dinner guests (sometimes as may as 12) and her boarders. But we were all well taken care of. She never laid a hand on us, but when we really wouldn\u2019t listen, as children will, she brought out her cane rug beater and that was usually enough.\nIn April, 1936 I started school. At that time, the school year in Germany started than in spring, usually right after Easter. Summer holidays did not start until the end of July or early August and school resumed again in September. This allowed the many farm communities in Germany to have the help of the children with the hay and grain harvest. (Also, summery weather in middle Europe does not come till the later part of the summer season, hence the later Summer break.)\nThe school I started in was located in a small building and housed only the first three grades. Depending on the number of children attending in a particular year, they were often taught in just one room. The teacher, at least from what I remember, looked like something out of a Dickens novel; he didn't let you get away with much. As was the custom, the first time you entered school was celebrated. You were given a cone-type container, decorated with colored paper, which contained all kinds of candies. I guess that was to help you get over being left alone at school, and to make it seem as if school was going to be a lot of fun. First grade, of course, was not hard and you soon got to know your classmates. Your backpack contained a small blackboard to which a little sponge; a small rag, attached on a string; and the chalk sticks.\nI must have been been at school for several months when one day my Dad unexpectedly picked me up from school. Of course, my Dad showing up was always a wonderful surprise, because I did not get to see him too often and he always spoiled me rotten. I was even happier to learn that I was to return with him home to Neisse [where he was still stationed]. It seemed he had rented a new apartment and hired a housekeeper/governess to take care of the household, and to look after me. This lady, known as \u2018Tante Edith\u2019 turned out to be very 'correct' and very strict. I did not care for her very much, but one thing she taught me was the love of books. After coming home from school, she would sit down with me and painstakingly go paragraph-by-paragraph through a book ... and not a first-grade one, either! Mostly these were stories about knights of old and their ladies and their adventures. The books appealed to me, and before too long I made definite progress and reading became fun. Soon she could not drag me away from a book, a habit that has remained with me all of my life.\nEven though Tante Edith was not the perfect \u2018governess\u2019, I still have to say thank her for introducing me to the joy of books and reading. My books helped me while away long hours spent alone. All through my life and to this day, books have been one of my greatest pleasures. No matter where I go, whenever I expect to wait for something or someone, I still carry a book with me to pass away the time.\nWhether Tante Edith was the right person to bring up a young, headstrong girl is a point I am still not clear about. On one hand my Dad [when he was able to be with me] spoiled me rotten. I often went with him to his office at the garrison where he was stationed when it was Tante Edith\u2019s day off. There I would spend my time after school, roaming the grounds and especially the stables, being looked after by his soldiers, be they Sergeant or Private, and once again, every whim of mine was indulged. Tante Edith, on the other hand, having been charged to bring me up 'proper', was very strict, often to the point of being rather unreasonable. So I quickly learned to make up any kind of stories or excuses to get my way.\nWith the move back to Neisse [I still remember the address: #6 Obermaehren Gasse], of course, I went to a new school. I do not recall too much about the school itself; more about the long walk to and from. In those days the safety of young children (with respect to molestation) was not often an issue, and as long as you knew your way your ability to return home was expected. Also, traffic was very sparse -- still a lot of horses and wagons around and very few cars.\nThis, of course, gave me great opportunities to explore. I especially remember a great empty lot I had to cross [supposedly a shortcut home] that held my interest. Over the the years people had dumped all kinds of garden trash, which after a while somehow took root and produced a virtual treasure for me. I found all kinds of different plants and flowers and had to explore them thoroughly. This often reminds me of the cartoon \u2018Family Circus,\u2019 where the little boy doesn't always take the shortest route home.\nThe house we lived in contained several apartments. In the apartment directly below us lived a gentleman with his family. This man owned a brewery, which was located just across the street, built on a park-like lot, with lots of trees and beautiful landscaping, all enclosed by a high fence. He also had a young daughter, about my age or a little older. Her name was \u2018Ruth\u2019, and she had beautiful dark hair and very pretty dark eyes. The two of us soon became fast friends, playing together and exploring the neighborhood, especially the park around the brewery. We knew the fence was supposed to keep people out, but Ruth, knowing the man at the gate, always managed to get us in. Knowing we should not really be there made it just so much more interesting!\nRuth even went to the same school as I did, a most welcome friend and companion on the long walks to and from school. But this did not last very long. For some unknown reason, Ruth dropped out of our school and supposedly went to attend a private school.\nBut we continued to see each other at home after school and played together as before, until the day that I was visiting at her place and her mother had just put out some cookies for us, when Tante Edith appeared and rather curtly demanded that I come upstairs right away and wanted to know what I was doing at their house. I was also told, for no reason what so ever, not to play so often with Ruth.\nNext day after coming home from school I stopped downstairs to ask for Ruth to come and play. I never got past their maid and was told she was sick. The following day I tried again and this time somebody strange opened the door and told me that Ruth sand her family had moved away. Away in one day? This seemed even unbelievable to a six-year old. When later I asked Tante Edith what had happened all I was told that was not to ask any questions, that she did not know and I was not to mention their name again and stay away from downstairs.\nChildren will be children, and so I put this unpleasant and unexplained episode behind me, but deep down in my memory there is still the memory of \u2018Ruth\u2019 her mysterious disappearance. Being children we knew nothing about what was going on around us in the larger world, and as far as I knew the departure of Ruth was not connected to anything more sinister than simply \"she was gone,\" and I had lost my only playmate at that time.\nOne must understand, that at that time \u2018adult\u2019 matter were NEVER discussed in front of children and even questions were mostly answered in rather evasive manners. It was not until years later that I realized that Ruth and her family were Jews, and rich Jews at that, an unpardonable sin under the regime of the Nazis. To this day I have no idea what happened to the family. I did not know their last name and only the approximate time this all happened. I can only hope and pray hat the made their escape that night and were not carted off somewhere by the Gestapo. Seeing that they had obviously some money at their disposal, and that the time for the accelerated persecution of Jews did not start until about a year later, I hope they escaped. After Ruth left I had no other close friends.\nBlack clouds were gathering on the political horizon, and slowly, I started to notice things were beginning to change. First, my Dad was more absent from home than ever; the \u2018re-birth\u2019 and mobilization of the German Army was beginning; and he was constantly on Maneuvers or detached duty somewhere. He had by then been promoted to Hauptman or Captain and the only real bright spots in my life were when he made a surprise visit or I was on school holiday.\nAll my holidays were spent with Oma Kunisch, whom I quite frankly adored, maybe because I could wind her around my little finger, just like my Dad. And Tante Trude\u2019s daughter, Sigrid, my cousin, was like a little sister to me. We loved each other like the real sister we never had. To Oma Kunisch I was, of course, the one thing that remained of her youngest daughter. Oma Kunisch was at that time running her daily dinner table/boarding house for her paying guests, and Tante Trude had her job in the bank. At home things were very much as usual. School in the morning and afternoons and evenings with Tante Edith.\nMy one great joy was spending time with Vati, when ever he was home. He was a great lover of horses, and I guess I must have inherited that from him. He had several horses at his disposal for personal use, though they belonged to the Army and were stabled and cared for by them. They were all great jumpers and one of my best memories was to watch him at a spring Jagdreiten [steeplechase] and see him win a trophy. Everyone wore a sprig of oak in their lapel or, as in my case, you pinned it to your coat. I always took the oak home with me and tried to keep it green, but after a while it always dried up, and in spite of all my efforts it always dried up and turned brown. But there was always the other Jagdreiten in the fall...!\nEvery once in a while Vati and I were invited to his regimental commanding officer\u2019s house for dinner or afternoon tea. I guess his wife felt somehow sorry for the poor \u2018motherless\u2019 child and somehow wanted to do something for me. They had a son, a few years older than me. Being the tomboy I was, got along just great with him and his buddies, especially after they found out that they could not scare me with frogs, spiders or such things. We all became good friends and there were very few things we did not get into. [By the way, the CO\u2019s son lost his life during the war, and so did his father]. But at that time, we were young and untroubled, and neither politics or other worries entered our minds. One of our main enjoyments was to explore the remaining fortifications around the city of Neisse that Frederick the Great built around the town. Everything was wide open; I guess nobody than thought of the possibilities of anybody [especially children] getting lost in some of the underground passages. We had a grand time, playing the equivalent of Cowboys and Indians, only we were Prussians and Austrians.\nA lady, who was introduced to me as \u2018Tante Schmidthals\u2019, came to the house a few times, ostensibly to play with us kids, especially with me. I understood her to be a Gym and Home Economics teacher who knew all kinds of neat things to keep us kids occupied. She seemed to be a friend of the family, especially of my late Mutti. Though I did not know it then, Elisabeth Schmidthals was to become one of the most important people in my life.\nTante Schmidthals and Mutti had apparently both attended some of the same schools and had shared an interest in sports, especially in gymnastics. I understood that Mutti had been quite good at gymnastics and won several prizes, a talent she certainly did not pass on to me! (I was more Vati\u2019s daughter in that respect, one who, except for riding, did not care much about participating in sports. Of course, like all Europeans, Vati loved attending soccer matches. But, unless you were able to attend in person, you only read about it in the newspapers. No TV, and even to posses a radio was not too common back then.)\nChristmas 1936 was spent at Oma Kunisch\u2019s in Schmiedeberg with Oma, Tante Trude and Sigrid. Vati was there for the main holidays, and if I remember correctly, even Tante Schmidthals showed up with a gift for me. The Kunisch family always seemed to distance themselves from Tante Schmidthals. Why, I was to learn much later. As far as they were concerned, Vati could do no wrong. They simply adored him, and were extremely proud of their late daughter's husband, the handsome Hauptman in his smart uniform. Even in his absence he was always talked about, and still referred to by Oma as her \u2018son-in-law\u2019. I only learned later on that they secretly had hoped for a match between Tante Trude and my Vati. What a disaster that would have been! Two more different outlooks on life hardly existed -- my Vati light-hearted and outgoing, looking at the brighter side of life and, I am sure, not always following the straight and narrow \u2018moral\u2019 path. And I was, of course, very much my father's daughter, something of a rebel.\nSoon after that Christmas my Dad announced that he and Tante Schmidthals were engaged and to be married the coming June. I personally liked Tante Schmidthals well enough, and anything seemed better than being with Tante Edith.\nI remember a visit of Tante Schmidthals and her mother to Neisse around my 7th birthday. In hindsight, I'm sure they were there to look over the household and to see what would be needed by the new \u2018mistress\u2019 of the house. Right afterwards, my Vati was transferred again, this time to Oppeln, a rather bigger town than Neisse. This was to be my home for the next two years. Tante Edith left shortly before the wedding and on June 27, 1937 Vati and Tante Schmidthals were married in a little old fashioned church, not too far from Schmiedeberg.\nVati\u2019s brothers and sister attended, of course, along with several people from my new \u2018Mutti\u2019s\u2019 side of the family. The Kunisch family was absent; whether they were not invited or chose not to attend by their own choice, I don\u2019t know. When Vati and my new 'Mutti' [as I shall refer to her from here on] left after the reception on their honeymoon, they took me along! Why, I do not know; there certainly were enough people around to look after me. With they new Mutti I had also acquired a new Grandmother, Oma Schmidthals. She and Tante Anna, her companion/housekeeper, were also living in Schmiedeberg.\nTante Anna had come as a 16 year old into the Schmidthals household when my new Mutti was born in 1904, the third child and first daughter for Oma Schmidthals and her husband. Her older brother was 14 when she was born. His name was Ernst-Walter. Her younger brother, Wilhelm, was around 10 years old when she was born. Mutti came from an old Prussian family that had, just a short time before her birth, given up the word \u2018von\u2019 in front of Schmidthals, for reasons I do not know. (That was another case where such matters were not discussed with the children.) Most of the males of the family where, or had been, in the military and all were very patriotic about the \u2018fatherland\u2019, especially under the Kaiser.\nOma Schmidthals lived through three wars, starting with the Franco-Prussian War in the late 1800s, which united Germany into one nation, when Bismarck declared Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia as Emperor of all Germany, and did away with all the little states that previously constituted German territory. Then followed World War I, and later, World War II. She really lived through some historic times.\nI never met Mutti\u2019s father or older brother. Her brother died at the beginning of World War I, and her father passed away sometime in the early twenties. Oma Schmidthals was what you would call \u2018a Grand Dame\u2019 -- every inch of her showing her breeding. She was of tiny stature and, according to the early pictures I have seen of her, must have been truly beautiful. It still showed.\nBeyond that, she had a wonderful personality. Even though she was, to me, an \u2018old lady\u2019 she had a wonderful understanding of young people, especially surprising, since my generation was definitely different than hers. She grew up in the very proper and strict \u2018Victorian Age\u2019, long dresses and tight corsets and everything that went with it.\nOma Schmidthals and I had a great relationship. Many times when Mutti and I could not see eye to eye on issues [and those times came often] Oma Schmidthals would be the mediator. I also liked Tante Anna. She was a very unassuming and sweet person, who had through her own intelligence and hard work had found her place, rising from nursemaid to Ladies Companion, which was quite a climb. Eventually she became Oma Schmidthals\u2019 best friend and equal partner.\nBut back to the \u2018honeymoon\u2019. Vati, Mutti and I traveled to a rather secluded hotel in the Harz Mountains. All I remember is being on my own a lot [at least I had my books] and the three of us taking what seemed to be endless walks. Upon our return to Oppeln [where Vati was stationed] we moved to a newer and larger apartment. I did not have to change schools, but my walk to and from school became longer and I had to ride a city bus part of the way. Things at home were going OK; Mutti and I got along all right, even though she was very strict and set in her ways [which never, even in her later life, was to change] -- and that eventually caused trouble.\nI am sure that I presented quite a challenge. I had gone through many different hands in my seven years, and I guess I also had been quite indulged by Vati as well as Oma Kunisch along the way. The Kunisch family never actually forgave Mutti for marrying my Vati, and now I realize that the spoiling and indulgences on Oma Kunisch\u2019s part had a lot to do with that.\nBut the friction that started at home went a lot deeper than just my relationship with Mutti. Vati's and Mutti's outlook on life was just oceans apart. He had married because he had to do a certain amount of repair to his reputation [I never got the whole story, just some hints that it had to do something with a certain \u2018Lady\u2019], and he also needed a mother to take care of me. So Mutti, with her spotless reputation and background, was the perfect choice. Tante Edith's presence in the home of a bachelor, even though he was recently widowed (and, from what I was told, the expectations she held) was not a good choice. So he married Mutti, but it was very obvious that, at least on his side, it was a marriage of convenience.\nBoth at home and in the world at large, it became apparent even to me that things were not as they should be. On the political horizon, black clouds were beginning to gather. Hitler escalated his persecution of the Jews. Internationally, as history shows, he was still presenting a peaceful face to the rest of the world. He met in Munich with English foreign minister Chamberlain and French minister Dalladier and \u2018everlasting peace\u2019 and \u2018non-aggression\u2019 was promised by all. At home, however, all the laws concerning \u2018Non-Arians\u2019 were being put into effect -- meaning, mainly, the Jews.\nOne morning, I was riding the city bus to school. The bus route went by a Jewish Synagogue, where a big black cloud of smoke was visible. It soon became evident that, not only had the building been set afire, but all the beautiful glass windows and door were smashed to pieces. The big copper dome on the building was tilting crazily to one side. Except some murmurs from people riding the bus, nobody said anything. When I arrived at school there was no comment. Upon arriving home and telling Mutti about it I became no wiser.\nI found out later that all the Jewish places in town -- and all over Germany -- had met the same fate. It was what later became known as the Kristallnacht [Crystal Night] and was supposedly an \u2018act of the people\u2019 who were fed up with the \u2018money- grabbing\u2019 Jews. In fact, the deed had been done by members of the SA and SS. This was also the time when the real persecution of Jews began. Nothing much was ever said about politics at home; just to criticize anything that Hitler did was high treason. But I was just a young kid, who was not in any way directly touched by things that were happening.\nThere was enough trouble at home. Vati was constantly absent, whether intentionally or due to his being an officer in the Army, I do not know. Just less than six months after their wedding, Mutti suddenly went back to Schmiedeberg to stay with her mother who said she \u2018needed\u2019 her. Since school was still in session, I was left at home, and a young \u2018au pair\u2019 girl, came to stay with us and to take care of me. She was not only lazy and undependable, but often not even around when she was needed.\nAs the winter holidays began I was shipped off again to Oma Kunisch, and, since I was in the same town as Mutti, went to see her. She was apparently really sick with some kind of nervous skin problem, one that made her break out in hives all over and itched. (It was a complaint that I was to get to know quite well. Every time something upset Mutti or things did not go just her way, this re-occurred.) During the Christmas holidays Vati came to Schmiedeberg and the two of them must have come to some kind of understanding, because after Mutti was \u2018well\u2019 again, we returned to Oppeln together, in time for me to go back to school.\nAfter that, a whole year went by, rather serenely -- at least, at home. During the summer of 1937 Germany reclaimed the Sudetenland, a strip of country located around the borders of Czechoslovakia and predominantly occupied by a German-speaking population. According to the news, many were being persecuted because of their German ancestry and had to be \u2018liberated\u2019. This came after the earlier annexation of Austria, and shortly before German troops crossed the border into the part of Czechoslovakia and occupied it. The search for more 'lebensraum\u2019 [room to live] had begun in earnest.\nVati was transferred temporarily to a small town in East-Sudetenland called \u2018Sternberg\u2019. Shortly after arriving, he somehow injured his back and was admitted to the local hospital which was run by an order of nuns. Vati\u2019s constant complaint was that they did more praying than looking after their patients. But that was probably just his discontent and boredom speaking. Since he was to be in the hospital over the holidays, Mutti and I went to stay with him. The nuns even arranged for beds in the same room for both of us. We spent Christmas with him. He seemed in a great deal of pain, and every so often, a nurse would appear and jab a painkiller/sleeping drug into his rear end. (Remember that I was not yet nine years old, and a lot of what I recall about these things is based on what I heard.)\nI do not remember if we had a Christmas tree in Vati\u2019s room; I do know there was a huge one in the hall. It was a strange Christmas. Mostly I recall the nuns, gliding around in their long white habits and with their large white head dresses, looking like something out of a scary movie. It was quite an experience, especially for somebody who was brought up Protestant Lutheran and until that point had no contact with anything Catholic; and who was being very much influenced in her thinking by Mutti, who strongly disliked, among other things, Jews and Catholics [in that order].\nIt was a strange time for me to be growing up. On one hand I had (so it seemed) finally found a stable home with both a father and mother. On the other hand, the political situation was beginning to make itself felt. Mutti was very pro-Hitler; she thought he was the long awaited \u2018Messiah\u2019 who would lead Germany back to its old glory. She was not necessarily what you would call a \u2018Nazi\u2019 [certainly her family background would vouch for that]; and she was not a follower of the party line (I know she was not a member). But she did agree with a lot of their dogmas and beliefs, especially as far as the Aryan dogma was concerned. She never believed in interracial mixing; everything not German [or of \u2018Germanic\u2019 origin] was frowned upon, and English-American culture such as music or movies was considered decadent.\nBy now it was Christmas, 1938. We celebrated very little. I received a a pair of skis and everything to go with them. Since the hospital had extensive grounds and there was plenty of snow on the ground, I tried them out the next day. I was not too successful at first, but had a lot of fun anyhow. (Many days, when I attended school at home, they were the only means of transportation, so eventually, I got pretty good on them.) We went home to Oppeln December 26; Vati was about to be released and joined us soon thereafter for a short time.\nVati was never home for a long stretch at a time; duty called him constantly away, mostly on extended maneuvers. The military was beginning to feel the extra pressure and the ever-present darkening political situation. Germany was definitely preparing for war. At home, the situation was still very strained because, in my estimation, Mutti's outlook on life was just so different than was Vati's.\nBut the New Year (1939) bought another transfer for Vati. He was a Captain by then, and was being given his first command, a small garrison located in the eastern corner of the Sudetenland. Maerish Rothwasser was a little place, not much more than a large Village, located in a valley surrounded by some of the prettiest country and mountains you could imagine. The barracks had been built by the Czech Army and consisted of many rather modern looking buildings, intended to house quite a large contingent of mounted troops. Of course, there were also stables, which were in better shape than the quarters intended for the troops!\nVati went ahead with a small detachment of soldiers to oversee the finishing of the barracks, as well as the housing intended for dependents. Everything was in a raw state of finish and it took several months to be fully completed. The base was surrounded by a chain link fence and the dependent housing was located right across from the main gate.\nFinally, the big day came, and after the troops had arrived and been settled, we got the word to come and join Vati and take up residence in our new home. If I remember correctly, it was March, 1939, still miserably cold and wet; and, as you might imagine, the new and until-then-unoccupied quarters were the same. Each room was equipped with a big old-fashioned tile stove -- nice and cozy when you stood right next to it, but it took some doing to heat every room. Still, we were able to be all together again.\nI went to exploring, especially in the stables, and was very disappointed when I found only one horse in residence, Vati\u2019s personal mount, called \u2018Nation\u2019. However, it did not take long before the stables were filled with horses of all types and colors, but on that first visit she did look rather lonesome. Besides, she was always rather ill-tempered and liked to nip you when you weren't looking. Vati exercised her daily, and when I had the chance and knew where he had gone I would run as far as I could to meet him and would always get a hand up to ride home with him.\nBefore long we had to think about me starting back to school. In Oppeln, I attended third grade, with about a fourth of the school year to run, since the new school year started in spring. Here, being in the Sudetenland, a former part of Czechoslovakia, the school year changed in fall after the big summer holidays. So I either had to lose or gain half a year. Vati and Mutti decided to rather have me gain than lose time. In retrospect, it was probably not the best thing to do. Not only was I thrown into completely new surroundings with new teachers and classmates, I was also at least half a year behind in school knowledge, and I was also now the youngest one in the class [a fact that would show itself in later years]. As if this all was not enough, I was a complete outsider coming from \u2018Old Germany\u2019 -- the country that had, through Hitler, \u2018liberated\u2019 them, which not everyone was 100% happy about.\nThe local people were very much like the Austrians, with a little bit of Latin outlook on life thrown in. They were very laid back and their philosophy was if it does not get done today, it\u2019ll get done tomorrow. This attitude did not get along well with the semi-Prussian military attitude of most newcomers. Many times I remember Vati being thoroughly frustrated when a job at the garrison needed to be finished at a specific time, but wasn't.\nIt took me quite while to be accepted, but once I felt like I belonged, it soon became home and has remained so till this day. I literally had to fight for respect -- I intensely disliked being made fun of, due to my different accent, ways of behavior, background and life at home. Somebody also found out about my nickname of Peter, and I was constantly teased about it, until one day I did not back down from the biggest boy in the class, and we got in a fight. We were both punished, but afterwards became the best of friends. I had gained a protector nobody fooled with.\nSchool went slow in the beginning. I was really good in the subjects I liked, but only just passed things like mathematics or grammar. I made it to the end of the school year and was promoted to the next grade. From then on things got better; I had friends and I felt at home. The war had begun in September 1939, and within a few weeks -- I think it was the beginning of October -- Vati and his troops received orders to move. Like in times of old, they moved out, the horses pulling the wagons. It was literally \u2019when the caissons were rolling along\u2019, because that is what they were: field artillery. There was not a single motorized vehicle amongst them. My Dad rode his horse at the front of the column, his officers behind him, and the rest of the troops followed. It was quite a picture. We -- that is, the families who stayed behind -- gathered all the flowers we could find and decorated all the men and horses. They were on their way to a main railway loading station several miles away.\nThat, and two more times in the next 2 years, was all I saw of Vati. After all the men were gone, it took a while for things to settle down at home. Everything was strangely quiet and empty. All we knew is that the men were to be posted somewhere toward the Eastern front and at that time, that meant Poland. The men were all anxious to get going \u2018in case the war would be over before they became involved' [Little did anyone know what lay ahead]. The Polish campaign was short and successful for the German forces. Germany was ecstatic. Everybody listened to the radio and waited for sondermeldungen [special news bulletins] to hear of the \u2018glorious\u2019 battles the German troops fought and, at that time, won.\nAt home life returned to a certain normalcy. Starting in September, 1939, we had air raid drills and certain people were appointed air wardens. We had, of course, total blackouts at night. All of this was considered a kind of joke, even when we were issued ration cards for everything possible. Food and other things were abundant, even in the large cities. The war would be over before Christmas, we were told, and all the men would be home safe and sound and Germany would of course be victorious.\nSoon, however, reality set in. Within the first two weeks, the first casualty reports began arriving, and many loved ones were either dead or wounded. Then, England and France joined the war on the side of Poland, and all of a sudden it was a two-front war and the first air raids started. That's when things started to get really serious. Italy, of course, had joined with Germany, becoming a member of the 'Axis Powers'. Germany quickly overran the combined forces of the 'Allies' in France, and German troops marched into Paris; German forces dug in along the Atlantic coast after heavy fighting.\nThe Allies had to retreat from mainland Europe, incurring heavy casualties, especially at the infamous battle of Dunkirk. Hilter literally faced England from about 2 hours away. Britain sustained heavy losses, but so did the Germans. The air battle of Britain began, and so did the sea battles. German U-boats chased everything in their sights and sank it. Most Germans were euphoric, but the war still was not over, and the Allies dug in for a bitter battle. Frenchmen organized a very effective underground force that harassed German troops wherever they could find them. And the bombing of German cities and factories began to take its toll. Even our out-of-the-way little place was soon to have its share of air raid evacuees, especially mothers with young children.\nVati and his outfit had been transferred to the Western front, though ground fighting there had ceased for the time being. An uneasy armistice had been declared; the French had a puppet government under Marshal Petain. This was the summer of 1940, and sometime during my summer holidays Vati came home for a short furlough. I was spending the summer doing my part for the war effort, working on a nearby farm every day, helping in the fields, or doing whatever chores were needed. All the \u2018able bodied\u2019 men were in the service. It was great to have Vati home, even for a short time, if only Mutti wouldn't have spoiled it.\nIt seemed that every time Vati visited and things were going great, she would bring up something I had done wrong during his absence. He would than feel compelled to somehow punish me, so as not to undermine her authority. Then he would try to make up for it, sharing some special \u2018tidbits\u2019 or goodies that - according to Mutti - were meant only for him. When he was out of earshot, Mutti, in turn, would let me know how much that displeased her and under no circumstances was I to do it again. As a result, Mutti and I never had the best relationship. She was too strict and often unforgiving, which in turn caused me to do things anyway, whether she was right or not. It also had me inventing a lot of stories about where I had to be (or had been); or how long it would take, etc.\nOne afternoon during the summer of 1940, when Vati was home on leave and everyone was having a good time, Mutti mentioned to him a transgression of mine which, to her, seemed serious. I had a piggy bank, in which were about 20 Marks -- money that had been given to me on one occasion or another. I wanted to buy something in the village store, and just liked to have some money in my pocket, so I managed -- with the help of a hair pin -- to extract 5 Marks thru the slot. Mutti somehow found out, and I was grounded for about a week. I think that happened in February, and Vati didn't come home on furlough 'til early June. So, out of the clear blue sky that afternoon, just before we were supposed to go somewhere, she informed him of my \u2018thievery\u2019 [as she called it] and told him that he had to punish me for it, or I would came to a bad end.\nWhat was he to do? He called me to his study and told me that Mutti had advised him of what I had done and insisted he punish me. So I was excluded from going on our outing together, and restricted to my room. Even as a 10 year old, I could tell that his heart was not in it, and later he made it up to me by buying me a bicycle -- over Mutti\u2019s objection. Soon thereafter he had to leave again, and I was to see him just once more, for a very short time. He was soon transferred to Poland, where he was to spend almost a year. According to his letters, he felt that the government had forgotten about him, but then they promoted him to Major of his battalion.\nThe war was at a stalemate. The only battles going on, it seemed to us, were in the air in Africa. At that time, in the Sudetenland, we were not touched very much by the war. The large cities of Germany were constantly bombed and we were receiving more and more evacuees. Ration cards became more and more short, especially items such as white flour, sugar and butter or margarine, and \u2018real\u2019 coffee. Our coffee was made from roasted barley and chicory, probably very healthy and certainly caffeine-free. But the taste? Ugh. Luxury items such as good soap and shampoos, or chocolate and of course all imported items became rare and were soon only found on the black market. Hotels and restaurants soon required that you bring your ration book with you.\nStill, where we lived was kind if a backwater from the war, and since most people in the area were farmers, food was not scarce. There was almost always enough [dark] rye flour and, of course, potatoes around. More recipes, even cakes, containing rye flour and potatoes became popular. The sweetener was more often than not saccharine, often egg substitute, and of course, as fat free as possible. But, as the old saying goes: Hunger is the best cook. But those times were still plentiful compared to later years. Things, however, were soon to change.\nOne thing I clearly remember: During the summertime, the great pine woods surrounding the valley were plentiful with wild berries. Starting in early summer with wild strawberries, which grew along the hedges, on spots that were partially exposed to the sun; and later on, wild blueberries and cranberries, the summer ending with sweet and juicy wild raspberries as well as blackberries. When it rained there were wild, edible mushrooms just waiting for the picking. Of course, you had to have a certain knowledge of what was edible, but somehow, growing up so close to Nature, you almost instinctively knew. We would get up in the morning as early as possible, right before dawn. All the \u2018mushroom pickers\u2019 would do this -- you wanted to get to your favorite spot before anybody else did, because mushrooms are best when picked before the sun comes up. They have a tendency to get slimy later in the day.\nDuring Vati\u2019s summer leave in 1940, Mutti and he had decided that it would be better for my education [meaning, \"stopping me from being such a tomboy and learning some deportment\"] to attend an all-Girls' school about 30 km from where we lived. It was a combination junior high and high school, known for its \u2018higher\u2019 education and teaching young girls to be more like ladies. Not only did it mean that I had to leave all my friends behind, but also that I had to ride a bus every morning, and home again in the afternoon, a total of about 2 1/2 hours on the road. I would catch the bus at around 6:45 in the morning and be home by 2:00. The bus had to travel long, winding roads through the mountains, which in wintertime meant snow and ice covered roads. Why parents would send a ten-year-old on such a harrowing trip is still a mystery to me!\nNeedless to say, I hated the change and was determined NOT to like the school. I did not like my classmates, \u2018city girls\u2019 whose interests were completely different from mine. I didn\u2019t like the teachers, and I think the feeling was mutual. I was probably a bit of a troublemaker. My grades began to suffer. I cut classes whenever possible, which was not hard to do; it was easy to blame being late or absent on the bus, and nobody bothered ever to check. That sojourn lasted one school year. By the fall of 1941, I persuaded Mutti to let me re-join my old local school.\nAs the summer before, I spent most of my vacation \u2018helping\u2019 at a neighboring farm, partially because we had to do it as a school project, but mostly because I just enjoyed being out of doors and on a farm with all the animals. I was good with horses, and many times I helped bring the full hay wagon home, leading the horses. The noon meals and snacks they served during the afternoon were beginning to look mighty good. Food was becoming more rationed, even where we lived, and we had begun to feel it. Rationing was becoming more and more strict, and certain items such as sugar, butter or margarine were getting more scarce. Still, compared to what was to happen in the coming years, we were living well.\nAs usual, during the summer vacation I spent about 2 weeks at Oma Kunisch\u2019s. That was always a special treat for me. Complete freedom, and the promise of being spoiled, too! I was 11 years old, and Oma Kunisch lived about half a days train ride away in Schmiedeberg. I was put on the train at home with a book and a sandwich and my suitcase, told to change trains at a certain place and then Oma Kunisch or Tante Trude would pick me up in Schmiedeberg. Trains were often running late; troop trains or supply trains always had priority. Homeward-bound was the same story; they would put me on the train and Mutti would pick me up at the station. How different those days were! Sigrid and I played all day with friends that were also spending their summers with their grandparents.\nEverything was great, except for one big problem I had with Mutti -- one that was to remain with me thru all my school years. As I have mentioned before, Mutti was a strict non- conformist, especially when it suited her purposes. No matter what my friends or classmates did or were allowed to do, I always had to be different, specially when it came to dressing. She had all kinds of reasons: My Vati was an officer in the German Army and I had to be behave accordingly, to consider my \u2018background' [obviously \u2018better\u2019 than the local \u2018farm girls', etc]. I had to behave in a certain manner that she considered correct, was never allowed the freedom they had when it came to go to the weekly movies, unless she approved. So we had quite a few differences of opinion and when I could not change her mind I started to find ways to do what I wanted. And of course that led to telling stories, (let's not call them lies). Whether she always knew what I was up to, I don\u2019t know. She caught me now and then, and than the punishment was severe, in a very subtle way. And she never forgot. Years later she would remind me of things I had done wrong. I muddled along with Mutti the best I could. After all, I reasoned that since my Vati had married her, he must have had a reason I could not understand.\nOne more example of Mutti\u2019s method of \u2018bringing up Peter\u2019 (me): As a home-economics project we were all to sew a very simple dress, which would teach us, amongst other things, how to use a sewing machine. The old kind, where your feet did the work, no electric machines in those days. Well, the teacher, had purchased material, a sort of check gingham, in red and blue checks. All the girls were to attempt to sew this into a dress and this was later to be worn as a sort of school uniform for our grade and on specified days we were to appear in those outfits.\nOf course Mutti disagreed with the colors, the material, style and everything else. She had to buy a different type of material in a different color, and wanted a different style. This not only put me in very hot water with the teacher, but also again made me different from the rest of the class. Mutti and the teacher never saw eye to eye from the very beginning. I guess since she used to be a Home Economics teacher at one time, she knew every thing better. The teacher, a proverbial old maid, had taught at this school for more years than she probably cared to count, and was not about to be told by a \u2018newcomer\u2019 and \u2018intruder' from the Altreich [\u2018original\u2019 Germany, before the \u2018liberation\u2019, was called old Germany]. So I became a pawn in their power play, and that did not make it easy for me, because I could not please the teacher, no matter how hard I tried, especially with Mutti blocking everything.\nOften, in later years when I was grown and out from under her thumb, I tried to figure out the reasons that made her what she was. I\u2019m sure she loved me in her way, and I was far from perfect, but we sure butted heads. And, as I mentioned before, it caused a lot of problems and made me even more of a rebel than I naturally was. And the Kunisch side of the family did not help. There, again, I was in the middle of a power play. On Oma Kunich\u2019s side I was considered just about perfect and spoiled rotten. They did not like Mutti at all [which will be shown even more clearly later]. Mutti just decided whatever \u2018they\u2019 said was wrong and directly meant to be said out of jealousy. The only mediators in all this were Mutti\u2019s mother and Tante Anna. They seemed to understand me more, even though they were of a much older generation. I really loved to visit with them and listen to their stories of a very different time.\nVati had been home for a very short furlough at the end of January, 1941 and was now on the Russian front. That was when the overall picture of the war began to change. The Allies dug in, as Churchill put it: \"on the beaches of England and in the air.\" The bombing raids accelerated and Russia had joined the war on the side of the Allies. So Germany was fighting on two fronts. The \u2018glorious\u2019 German troops made more and more \u2018strategic\u2019 withdrawals. The news from the East was bad. Just like for Napoleon, the rough Russian winter, the long, impossible supply routes and the Russian troops, who were used to the bitter cold, began taking their toll. Vati was at this time stationed about 20 km outside of Moscow. Letters from him began to arrive slower and slower, and his usually upbeat tone began to change. December, 1941 arrived and the Christmas season was just around the corner. My daily silent question was: \"Will Vati be home for at least part of the holidays?\" I knew the answer, but one could hope.\nOne night I had a strange dream; it was more like being awake. Somehow the idea came to me of what would happen if Vati got killed: I would actually be an orphan. A terrible thought for a young girl, having read all those books about poor orphans. Then came December 5, a day I shall never forget. It was a Sunday morning, around 11 o\u2019clock, when the door bell rang. Mutti was busy with some thing and asked me to answer. At the door was a German Army officer asking to see Mutti. Being taught to ask such a caller into Vati\u2019s study, I asked him to wait and went to get Mutti. I remember the radio in the corner was on, and as Mutti and I returned he was busy turning the sound down. Mutti was just about to ask him what he was doing when we both saw the look on his face and knew what he was there to tell us.\n\u201cI\u2019m terribly sorry to have to inform you that on the 3rd of December your husband died a hero\u2019s death on the field of battle\u201d. On and on he went, how it happened, how a Siberian sharpshooter hidden in a tree hit him with a bullet right in the forehead and that he died instantly...but nothing much penetrated our mind. All I could think of was that Vati was dead and would never come home. I had indeed become an orphan. Mutti took it very hard. It took all her last energy to ask that her mother be notified, also Oma Kunisch. After he left, she pretty much shut down and just went through the motions, doing only the things that needed doing.\nHer mother, including Tante Anna, arrived by train the next afternoon. As her mother got off the train, her first words were that her brother, and also her favorite cousin, had also been killed fighting in Russia. I don\u2019t think it hit Mutti until much later what her mother had said; we were all kind of numb. Mutti had some kind of breakdown and took to her bed, leaving the running of the house to her mother and Tante Anna, who turned out to be a real rock in all that turmoil. Tante Anna went to work on getting black material and sewing several black dresses for everybody, because mourning clothes would be worn for at least a year. All the other necessities, such as notifying the paper and informing relations and friends had to be seen to.\nAs I recall, I stayed home from school about 10 days, maybe 'til the Christmas holidays. I had to have a black dress to wear and I also felt awkward facing my schoolmates and teachers. I think my Dad was the first casualty of the war as far as my immediate circle was concerned. I remember one of my first concerns was if we were going to have a tree for the holidays this year, and how it would all work out. Mutti, who was slowly getting over the first terrible shock assured me that she considered it her \"duty as a soldier\u2019s wife to carry on in a as normal way as possible. That would have been what he would have wished. \u201c\nSlowly, we began getting letters from the front, from Vati\u2019s friends and comrades, assuring us what a brave and well-liked fellow Vati had been; and also more news about what had happened. Vati and some of his staff, it seems, were on a forward reconnaissance mission. [He was, by then, commanding a division of motorized Cavalry.] The Russian forces, especially the Siberian sharpshooters, had inflicted tremendous losses on the German forces, mainly amongst the high ranking officers; they were trained to seek them out above all others. As they were crossing a little meadow a sharpshooter, well hidden, high in a tree, managed to shoot Vati right in the forehead. He was supposedly dead immediately. According to reports \u2018they took bloody revenge\u2019, but little did it help his family!\nHe was buried in Istra, Russia, in a little German military cemetery, 20 km outside of Moscow. His personal belongings, including his wedding band, were later on sent to Mutti. From what we heard, careful maps were supposedly kept of the actual locations of the graves. But who would even have them now, I don\u2019t know; and it does not really matter. First, the graves were all leveled when the German Army retreated. Russians were known to desecrate the graves, looking for wedding rings, jewelry etc. Russia is a big country and after all, a grave is just a grave. This is really all that I know about Vati\u2019s death. Most of his comrades, who might, after the war, have told us more, never returned home, either they were killed or lost in some prison camp and never heard from again. We received lots of condolence letters, from family and friends and even some rather high ranking officials.\nSlowly life began to resume at least an appearance of normality. The holidays came and went, a rather sad affair but everybody did their best to cope. One thing that made things appear more normal: None of the other fathers, brothers or friends were at home either. By this time only the really old, sick or young people were left on the home-front.\nAfter Christmas school started again and so I went, dressed in deep mourning black, down to my shoes, socks and accessories. I also was not allowed to attend any sort of entertainment, be it movies or birthday parties, etc. Only affairs that had to do directly with school or the war effort were allowed. I could not see quite the reason for all this and had quite a few \u2018heated\u2019 discussions with Mutti. In school I felt like a \u2018black crow' again; I was not able to conform or fit in. But it was winter time, lots of cold and snow, so except for occasional skiing you stayed home anyhow. And I had my books. I had become a very regular visitor at the local library. I brought stacks of books home each week, mostly adventure, historical or some sci-fi books. If I could just find a quiet corner and everybody left me alone, I was more or less content.\nFebruary 1942 came, and one day Mutti received a letter from the Family Court in Steinberg, a small town near where we lived that housed the District Court having jurisdiction over our local area. Much to our amazement and consternation, Mutti was ordered to appear at a certain date and show cause as to why she should continue to have further custody of me. Such a question had never been raised before. After Vati\u2019s death, Uncle Max, Vati\u2019s oldest brother, had been named my guardian, at least as far as Mutti was concerned. Whether this had ever been legally done, I don\u2019t know.\nIn any case, Oma Kunisch and Tante Trude all of a sudden demanded guardianship. The stated reasons were that Mutti was definitely not a blood relation; her marriage had been on rocky ground; and several others. Mutti was absolutely furious, and I can\u2019t say that I blamed her. All this came right out of the clear blue sky, nothing had ever been said about it before. Even though we had had our disagreements, even at my age knew that her approach to my upbringing was just the way she had been raised; she obviously thought she was doing her best by me. So I really felt she had been wronged. I finally persuaded Mutti to let me visit Oma Kunisch and Tante Trude in Schmiedeberg. I had to promise her to make sure that I not give anybody the impression that she had sent me or was influencing me.\nI don\u2019t quite remember what happened during that visit or what I said. I remember only praising Mutti, how well she took care of me etc. I thought I was really being \u2018diplomatic\u2019. Somehow I must have succeeded, or else it was decided that they really did not have a case. After one more visit by Mutti to the family court, the matter was quietly dropped. But one thing remained, and never really changed. The animosity was there, especially on Mutti\u2019s side. It took many years, 'til after the war, that a certain truce came about and at that point, at least, Oma Kunisch and Mutti were coldly polite to each other. In the meantime, I still visited with Oma Kunisch and had a good time seeing them all, and they still spoiled me rotten.\nIt was now well into 1942, and the war was going badly for Germany. Soon after Vati\u2019s death German troops began their serious retreat in Russia. What had been \u2018tactical\u2019 withdrawals became a daily happening. The Allies had launched their offensive and the Allied bombing raids kept taking their toll on the home front. Many people were evacuated from the big cities, mostly women with young children. The were brought to safer places in the country, much like England was doing. I was finally allowed to wear plain white clothes, especially during the summer. I had also joined the Bund Deutscher Maedel, or 'BDM'. It was actually were similar to the Girl Scouts, just a lot more politically-oriented. I proudly wore the uniform, blue skirt, white blouse and a brown Jacket. Again I encountered many objections by Mutti, about the time and frequency of meetings, inability of the leaders and many more. I had learned by now to live with it and how to get around many of her obstacles...not by always telling the truth, but what was I to do? All my friends were allowed to take part and I certainly was tired of being an outsider. Or so I reasoned.\nThis was also the summer that I fell in love the very first time. In retrospect it was \u2018puppy love\u2019, but nobody could have me told that at that time. Hans was 2 years ahead of me in school, so actually 3 years my senior. He was literally \u201ctall, dark and handsome\". We met by both being in the Hitler Youth movement. He carried the standard for his unit, I for mine. So we were often thrown together at political rallies and since they were usually a long way from home, he very often he saw me home.\nWe both rode bicycles to school and he would always wait for me at the crossing. We met during school recess and soon it was known that we were \u2018an item\u2019. When Mutti got wind of it she was literally shocked. She call me \u2018boy crazy\u2019 and other such endearing names, and I faced long lectures. She told me I was too young even to think of boys, and so on. I guess she thought I should still be playing with dolls. But never even remotely did any talk ever touch \u2018sex\u2019. In that respect, Mutti was still living in the Victorian era. Not that our relationship was anything but innocent, mind you. He never even kissed me, except one time during a school outing and then it was during an organized game. But we really liked each other. When he was occasionally away at glider school he wrote me the most beautiful letters, all hand printed and decorated like old illustrated Bibles. When Mutti found the letters, she destroyed every one of them and every contact with Hans was \u2018verboten' [forbidden]. Soon he went away to another school; I saw him one more time, just before he left for military service (in February, 1945) and he came to see me. Even Mutti could not object to that. The war was taking a disastrous turn for Germany; I never heard from him again.\nBy the summer of 1944, Mutti had me again had me attending a different school \u2018for higher education', only this time I was boarding with a family in the school town, and only came home for the weekends. The school I had attended locally did not teach English or French, and also stopped with the ninth grade. So, in order to attain a high school degree, I guess it was time for the change. But why I had to learn English and French was beyond me. We were at war with those countries and it just did not make sense! [Little did I know HOW important English was to become in my life, later on!]\nDuring the summer holidays Mutti had hired a tutor to help me get started. The teacher was from my local school and had been my third grade teacher. She was rather young and, in retrospect, not very experienced. I went to her house twice a week for about 90 minutes and learned a little. Most of the time I managed to talk about all different kinds of subjects...anything but English or French [which, of course, I regretted later on]. I got the basics, however, especially in English. French interested me even less.\nSo the summer holidays came to an end, and Mutti found that family in Schoenberg, where the girls-only high school was located. We had been to the school and also visited the prospective house-parents. They were nice, had two young boys [4 and 6 years respectively], and I thought that I should be able to get along just fine. The school wasn't too far -- about 15 minutes' walking distance -- and the house, where Mutti had rented the first floor apartment, was located in a nice neighborhood. Plenty of houses around town took in students for the school term.\nThe plans were for me to catch the train home every Saturday at noon for the trip home to Mutti. Our school week ran every day from about 8 AM to 1:30 PM, on Saturdays school closed about 11:30 AM. Due to the war, the buses did not run any more, as they had when I attended school before. The train ride was much more complicated and time consuming. I would leave at around 12 o\u2019clock and get home around five o\u2019clock. Monday morning I would leave home before four o\u2019clock a.m. to get to school in time.\nBefore long I discovered that a boy who was in classes with me for three years prior also attended the local \u2018Gymnasium\u2019, the Boys' High School. Though I muddled through the best I could, school itself was not much fun. Once again I felt again completely out of place, both in terms of knowledge of the curriculum, as well as being -- as the local girls called it -- \u2018from the country\u2019. This was true, not only because they were from the town, but they had been together all through school and knew each other well. Even the teachers, especially in languages and mathematics, seemed to look down on me.\nThe new family was OK -- we got along -- but even there I felt like an outsider. So I really just lived from one weekend to another, and used every possible way to stay home just a little longer. I sure had a lot of \u2018not feeling good\u2019 back then! Every possible way to have a sore throat, upset stomach and so on. Maybe in time that would have all changed, but I did not know then that my time at the school in Schoenberg was to be rather short.\nAlong came December, 1944 and we were getting close to the Christmas Holidays. Soon school closed for 3 weeks, and I gladly headed home. Christmas was a little better now. Sure, we missed Vati very much, but also nobody else had their loved ones home from the front -- not unless they were wounded and in some hospital or recuperating, or maybe at home on leave for a short time. The war had turned against Germany, especially on the Russian front. German troops were in full retreat, and the Eastern front lines had gotten closer and closer. The Allies had landed in Normandy and were pushing toward the Vaterland (Germany). Allied troops were also coming up through Italy.\nThe food situation had become pretty grim, even where we lived. You had ration cards, but often nothing was available, and items like sugar, white flour, meat and many other things were almost impossible to be had. Coffee was available only on the black market, as was every thing else you really wanted, if you were willing to pay the outrageous prices for it. Mutti considered it almost treason to buy things illegally, so we made do with what there was. Potatoes were always there, so was rye flour, a little milk and every once in a while some eggs from a local farmer...and with luck, even a scrawny chicken. Mutti tried to save whatever was possible. She managed a few Christmas cookies. How anybody ate them I don\u2019t know -- no sugar, no fat, just substitutes for sugar, butter and even some egg-powder, that had never seen an egg -- but we ate every bit of them. As I said earlier, \u201chunger is the best cook\u201d.\nOma Schmidthals and Tante Anna had braved the train ride from Schmiedeberg to spend the holidays with us, and we spent a quiet, reflective time together. Just before Christmas Eve it snowed heavily, so we definitely had a \u2018White Christmas\u201d. According to German custom, we lit the candles on the tree on Christmas Eve and exchanged gifts. I received several books [much to my joy!], some clothes and best of all -- a pair of new boots for my skis. Nothing fancy, but they fit and were new! Next day I had to try them out, there was certainly enough snow, and the skis were now a necessity. Soon, Oma Schmidthals and Tante Anna left again. Little did we all know how long it would to be 'til we saw each other again.\nThe weekend before I was due to return to school and my \u2018foster\u2019 family, I suddenly experienced stabbing pain in my lower back and over to the sides. When I told Mutti, she first made an unbelieving face (she knew full well how anxious I was to leave). But the pains continued and she finally called a doctor from the military hospital where she did volunteer work. [Vati\u2019s former barracks across the street had by then been turned into Reserve Military Hospital for recovering German soldiers]. A doctor came and quickly, after taking a sample for testing, diagnosed \u2018acute kidney infection\u2019. So Mutti believed that this time I was not faking it. As a matter of fact, I was in quite a bit of pain and spent most of the first few days flat on my back on a heating pad. In addition to medication, the Doctor ordered 2 days of \u201cabsolutely no water, no food\u201d and after that, at least 2 weeks of a completely salt free diet. It worked well, and I recovered fairly quickly.\nBefore long, Mutti and I were making plans for me to go back to school. Then all of a sudden, we received a phone call from the family I was living with in Schoenberg: Both of their two boys had contracted Scarlet Fever -- at that time a quite serious and sometimes fatal disease -- and their house was quarantined for the next 3 weeks. Hallelujah! All of a sudden my vacation had been extended.\nThe good Lord must have been on my side, because soon thereafter it became too dangerous to ride the train to where I needed to go. Seventy percent of the route the train took went through Czech territory. With the war going so badly for Germany, and the Russians coming closer by the day, it became routine for the train to be attacked by underground forces or the tracks being blown up, and German passengers being roughed up or even killed. We could also begin to hear the big guns from the front, it sounded like constant, heavy thunder. Needless to say, Mutti was happy to have me with her at home.\nSoon it was February, 1945, and the guns seemed to be coming closer and closer. Each day, they sounded louder and at night the sky was all lit up, like constant lightning. The military reserve hospital where Mutti worked was put on alert to expect orders to move in the foreseeable future. Mutti was given the choice to move with them, which of course included me. There was never any question that we would go with them -- everybody knew only too well what to expect when the Russian troops moved in. Our concern was not only with the Russians, but also with the Czech nationalists who were just waiting for the Russian troops to provide them with an opportunity to take revenge for the wrongs the Nazis had done to them. (And ultimately, bloody revenge did they take! Mutti\u2019s decision proved to be right one, for from what we heard from talking to people who left after the end of the war, rape and killing was commonplace.)\nSo we started to pack, to be ready to go at a moment's notice. What do you take with you when all you\u2019re allowed is what you can carry? We were luckier than many people; since Mutti belonged to the hospital staff, we were allowed a foot locker and bigger suitcases than we could actually carry. I don't know how often we packed and unpacked. I was not quite 15 years old at that time, and all of this somehow was more of an adventure; I could not quite comprehend the seriousness of it all. It seemed like an ongoing \u201cparty\u201d, especially since all the long-stored \u201cgoodies\u201d like canned fruit, liquors, wine etc. had to be consumed or left behind.\nToo soon the day came when a small train, consisting of 3 passenger cars, about 10 freight cars and an engine appeared at the siding near the hospital compound. Most of the wounded had been moved ahead to hospitals out of the danger zone, and the few that remained were well enough to help with moving the actual hospital equipment. Early the next morning the actual loading began, and by early afternoon we were told to grab our few belongings and board.\nIt was a strange feeling to lock the door of our apartment for the last time, knowing we would never return. Even I had lost some of my sense of adventure. I am sure it was a hard undertaking for Mutti. Leaving all the things that still remained and reminded her of Vati -- things she knew she could never replace. But to stay was completely out of the question, so we set out on the journey of our lives.\nThe little train was finally loaded around late afternoon, including 4 Russian steppe ponies. They were used to haul various items, especially supplies, since the reserve hospital was not considered important enough to have any motorized vehicles (by that point, anything motorized was in very short supply).\nFinally, we were under way. Little did we know what lay ahead of us. The trip was to last 15 days, traveling across the heart of what was then Czechoslovakia to end up at a little town near Nuremberg in the heart of Bavaria, in what was later to become West Germany. But I don't want to get ahead of myself...\nMutti and I were assigned to one of the passenger cars, together with the few remaining nurses. Doctors, other staff members and personnel were in the other cars. We were lucky to have a small field kitchen along, so we always got hot \u2018coffee\u2019 [the burned barley and chicory, variety, not the real thing]. Food preparation was only possible when the train stopped --which was quite often -- because troop and supply trains heading to the Eastern front had the right of way. While stopped, we also got a warm meal of soup or stew plus some dark rye bread. But when you're that hungry, anything tastes good. Rations were meager, but better than nothing.\nThe first night on board the train was one of the most miserable I have ever spent. Anybody who ever tried to sleep in the luggage rack of an old German train knows what I\u2019m talking about! No matter which way you twist of turn, the wooden slats -- designed to hold luggage, not people -- poked you in the back, plus there is always the fear that you might fall out, onto the floor below. I tried it that night, and that was enough for me. Sleeping upright in the seats below did not appeal, either. I was going to find more comfortable sleeping quarters for the next night, no matter what Mutti or anybody else said.\nAs soon as the train came to one of its many stops the next morning, I went exploring. I soon came to the freight car where the 4 horses and their feed were stabled. Over half a car full of soft [at least compared to a wooden luggage rack] hay! Of course, I was not the only one looking for a more comfortable place to sleep! But if you did not mind the smell of horses or weren't allergic to hay, this was the place; at least you could stretch out on the hay. So, on a first-come, first-served basis, I had found myself a sleeping place. (As the trip wore on, the piles of hay became thinner and thinner, but enough remained to be reasonably comfortable.)\nToilet and washing facilities were rather primitive. There were, of course, several \u2018on train\u2019 toilets, but no way to get to them when the train was under way. So one just went behind the horses when Mother Nature called, hoping the train wouldn't move too much, or the horses didn't care about having someone behind them. Washing was done as much as possible in the morning, or when we stopped. Face, neck and hands were about the extent of it; rinse and brush your teeth when possible. A change of clothing was out of the question; there was no way to get to our luggage. So the same pair of pants, sweater and underwear simply had to do. We must have been a bedraggled-looking lot, but we did not go hungry and we were saved from the Russians.\nWe slowly wound our way through the heart of Czechoslovakia, often sidelined in some unknown little place for hours at a time. We could get out and stretch our legs, and once in a while get the horses out and walk them. Seven people finally ended up in my \u2018cattle car\u2019 -- two nurses, me and four military personnel connected to the hospital. The keeper of the horses, an older guy who had two daughters at home, and I became good friends. He often made sure that I got food and other essentials. We had long talks or played cards to pass the hours during the trip.\nOne day we were stopped somewhere and a similar train was stopped right next to us, a train that, as I later found out, had come all the way from near the Baltic Sea -- a long way off, and just like us, looking for refuge in the west. It was a larger train and carried a lot civilian refugees, mostly women and children, plus a few military personnel that were on re-assignment and on their way to the western front. A couple of nurses and I were talking and looking at the other train when one of them commented on a \u2018good looking\u2019 young lieutenant that was walking alongside the other train. I looked, and suddenly realized that I knew him! It was my cousin Helmut, my father\u2019s brother's oldest son. What a coincidence! We had not seen each other since the war began, over five years earlier. He had been on a short leave to see his wife and their newly-born son before he went to his new assignment. His wife was from East Prussia, a province on the Baltic Sea, and like us, they were told to leave because the Front was getting near. How he managed to accompany her I don\u2019t know and we did not have time to explain. It was good to see them. They did not know their destination either; in those days you were just glad if you were able to get away from the fighting. Time for our reunion was short and soon, everybody went on their own way.\nOn and on we went. We were near Prague, the capital of Czechoslovakia. We had stopped to let a troop train pass, and then to spend the night. The plan was to continue in the morning. It just so happened to be the night that long-range American bombers were on a mission to take out a munition factory in the little town near the siding, so we had ring side seats for a show we really didn't want to attend!\nSoon after the sirens went off, the attack began. It seemed to last forever. Actually, it lasted about 2 hours. I felt like a sitting duck on that siding, and was really scared. The railway car was rocking back and forth with each explosion. The horses where frightened and very restless. We were all waiting for the next bomb to hit us. All I could do was literally bury my head in the hay and pray for it to be over. Luckily we were not hit, but had some rather close calls. After the \u2018All Clear\u2019 signal, we checked for damage and found that everybody was all right and even though some tracks were torn up, we would be able to continue in the morning.\nBy this time we were about 10 days into our journey. We finally learned that our final destination was to be Forchheim, a town on the main highway between Nuremberg and Bamburg. We finally arrived without any further incidents near the end of February, 1945, just a few days before my 15th birthday. Although Forchheim was located close to Nuremberg, which was almost completely destroyed by bombs, in 1945 almost no industries or anything important to the war effort existed there. Except for constant air raid warnings, nothing much had happened in Forchheim to that point.\nAn incident worth mentioning happened while we were still at the train station in our 'home on wheels'. The hospital kitchen was running short of supplies. George, the man in charge of the horses and wagons was told to go to Erlangen, the only nearby supply base for military hospitals, to get the needed items. Erlangen, about 20 miles distant, could be reached with the horse team in about 2 hours; we were lucky to have our 4 Russian ponies to get around. Being more than bored, with nothing much to do, I wanted to go along. I was lucky, because when I asked Mutti if I could go with George on an errand, she was otherwise occupied and she readily agreed [not exactly knowing that we were going that far].\nWe took off next morning, making it to Erlangen in good order around lunchtime. After collecting our supplies, consisting of some canned goods and a wagon load of black bread, we turned back toward Forchheim. Since Erlangen is not quite 20 miles from Nuremberg, we weren't surprised to see swarms of American long-range bombers in the air, probably on their way to targets in and around Nuremberg. It was almost a daily routine in those days to see the bombers, either during the day or at night. What we had not realized that bombers were always accompanied by lots of fighter planes. Their main job, I later learned, was to fly protective cover for the bombers, always on the lookout for Nazi airplanes, ground-based guns, tanks or other threats. The fighters were equipped with multiple guns, and didn't hesitate to use them.\nAs we quickly found out, when there wasn't an obvious military target, the fighters would look for anything that moved and seemed worth shooting at. They would take to strafing highways; all traffic was fair game, and before we knew it, our little wagon and horses became a target. They came around, lining up with the highway we were on, and began to open fire. George tried very hard to keep the frightened team of horses under control, scrambling to reach the cover of a nearby grove of pines as fast as possible. We made it safely into the grove, and there we waited until the fighters left, looking for new prey. The bombing mission was soon accomplished, however, as we saw billowing clouds of heavy black smoke, not far away. One could only wonder what was left to bomb after the almost daily attacks.\nWe soon went on our way again and could actually see Forchheim, not far ahead. As we were approaching the last bridge into town, a German Army convoy passed us, consisting of troop carrier and several tankers. [One has to remember that by that time -- February 1945 -- almost anywhere in Germany could be considered the 'front line', as the war was but a few months from being over.] As the last tanker was about to cross the bridge, and we made ready to follow, what would appear but a swarm of angry hornets: The American fighters were back, and found a worthy target in the tankers. All we could do is jump out of the wagon, abandoning it and the horses, and literally 'hit the dirt' next to an embankment next to the road, where we found several of Forchheim\u2019s other citizens already taking cover. Within minutes the tankers were ablaze; several explosions followed. We could hear the fighters' bullets striking all around us, but luckily for us, only the convoy was hit. I don\u2019t know how long we lay there in the dirt, but the attack was probably over within a short time. When we finally arose, we discovered that neither horses nor wagon had been hit; amazingly, the little ponies had remained still. So, we got back on the wagon and headed for \u2018home\u2019, this time without any further incident.\nI did not mention our adventure to Mutti, and it was not until a day later that somebody told her how lucky she was to have her daughter back in one piece; wasn\u2019t she happy; and so on. Only than did she begin to realize what had happened. I still got a serious reprimand, but I think she also felt guilty for not listening more carefully when I'd asked if I could go. After all, I was not even 15 and really had no business going through a war zone on a wagon. But, as they say, \"all's well that ends well.\"\nBefore the war, Forchheim was best known as the starting point for tourists who wanted to visit the Fraenkische Schweiz [Frankonian Switzerland], a very beautiful and popular vacation spot. Tourists from near and far came to enjoy its quiet atmosphere, with little trout streams winding through narrow valleys, surrounded by hills upon which old castle ruins could be found. Here and there were small hotels and boarding houses. Long paths wound through the woods, where in olden times poets and painters strolled. In the archives there is mention of the Kaiserpfalz, a castle that belonged to the Archbishop of Bamburg. It stands to this day, almost undamaged, and is used as a museum. Small, picturesque buildings decorated with brown woodwork are built along narrow, cobblestone streets. All this was surrounded by very fertile farm land and low, heavily wooded hills.\nForchheim was built sometime before 800 A.D. The population consisted of burghers and artisans and craftsmen and, of course, farmers -- very conservative and often narrow-minded people, who wanted to be left to alone to pursue their trades. They felt that if they more or less ignored trouble -- especially war -- it would pass them by; that included unwanted intruders. Refugees, we soon found out, were considered to be one of those \u2018intruders\u2019. Ninety percent of the local inhabitants were strict Roman-Catholics, and Protestants like us were were made to feel even less welcome.\nSince it appeared that Forchheim was to be our semi-permanent home, however, the next order of business was to find a place to stay. By this time we were all a rather ragged looking lot, wearing the same clothes for so long and not having ideal washing facilities. No surprise that doors would close very quickly; \"no room at the inn\" was an answer we would hear again and again.\nThe hospital had been assigned two local high schools for its use. (Most German schools were closed and teaching was done wherever you could get some students together, not necessarily at a school -- and even then 'class' was frequently interrupted by air raid alerts at all hours of the day or night.) This was our first chance to get cleaned up and find a change of fresh clothing. Today, when I think of going without a shower or fresh clothing for so long, I shudder. But we survived, and I sure there were people in far worse situations than us. The war was definitely going badly; food became more and more scarce. We felt this in Forchheim, especially, for being strangers in this tightly-knit little town meant we were a very low priority customer at all the stores. Luckily for us, however, Mutti still working at the hospital, where at least had one hot meal each day, usually soup. But even the hospital kitchen's supplies were getting low again, too. [One day, after we had an especially hearty soup for lunch, it was rumored that one of the horses was missing!]\nWe finally found a small room to let in the vicinity of one of the hospitals. No running water; toilet by the stairs in the hallway of the house. The landlord was far from pleased to have lodgers, because the room that was assigned to us by the local authorities was his living room. There was not much he could say or do -- except to let us know in small, irritable ways that we were not welcome. But to us, his living room was heaven! We unpacked our few belongings and with the aid of two bunks and a few utensils, we set up housekeeping. Even that one room seamed spacious, at least for a while. Mutti enrolled me in the local high school, whose 'classrooms' were, at that point, scattered all over town, because of the use of the school buildings by the military. Between constant moving from one place to another and the constant air raid alerts, however, we did not learn very much.\nBy April, 1945, it became clear that the war could not last much longer. The Western front was getting closer each day. Everybody was called upon to literally \u2018defend the fatherland to the last drop of blood\u2019. Everybody, in this case, meaning old men, women and children. Barricades were built across the main highways, but what good would they do against tanks or bombs? Nobody knew, or really cared.\nMutti continued working at the hospital, and to keep me with her during the day I began to work as a volunteer in the reception office. I helped log the arrivals of wounded, or fill out release papers for discharged patients. Since we were not a surgical unit, we only were to receive wounded that already had been previously treated and were sent to us for final disposition. As the fighting came closer, however, that changed, and we began to see more seriously wounded, so I was kept busy during the days. Most nights we spent several hours in the air raid shelter. In Forchheim, the shelter was inside the old city wall, which originally surrounded the entire town. It had several entrances and was dark and cold, moisture often dripping off the ceiling. But it was thick, and we were safe.\nAt the last minute, the City Fathers declared Forchheim to be an \u201cOpen City\u2019. This meant the Allied forces would be allowed to enter without resistance, and that meant no final battle. The Allies were just about knocking on our door by the time this happened, and nobody knew how effective the declaration would be. So that day, and the following night, we evacuated the entire hospital from the high schools to within the city walls. To distinguish doctors or nurses, or those who worked for the hospital, from actual soldiers (our patients), we were given Red Cross arm bands to wear.\nWe knew the Allies were close. It was a long, drawn-out and cold night. We tried to pass the time with cards and small talk. Sleeping was impossible since all we had was a single blanket laid on the cold, hard ground. The following morning we were not told what had happened, only that we could leave safely. That is when I got my first look at an American G.I. in battle gear. As we exited, they were waiting for us with guns drawn to escort us back to the high school. There Mutti and I stayed for several days, American guards at the doors.\nNot too many days later came the long awaited for news that the war was over, that Germany had surrendered. People who \u2018worked\u2019 with the Red Cross were allowed to go home to get fresh clothing, and finally sleep again in our own beds. Each the day we returned to work. Soon the German soldiers ready for release were transported out to POW camps, and we received new patients. I still did the same work as before, only now my limited knowledge of English came in handy. When we received new patients they were of course always accompanied by American soldiers and between my limited schooled English, hand motions, etc., we could usually figure out what they were telling us.\nEach day I picked up more English skills, and soon was able to communicate reasonably well. Somebody had given me a discarded American paperback book of cowboy stories. I was determined to read it and though the going was pretty rough in the beginning by the end I found myself enjoying the book, and somehow the words made sense much quicker. From then on I was on the lookout for discarded books in English, and once the G.I.s found out that I was interested in learning more, I received a big supply.\nEvery time a new transport came in, American Medics brought me books. Usually it was the same few guys. We got to talking, and I found out that they were really decent people, most with families and children back home. It really changed my mind about our former \"enemy'\u2019. In particular, an \u2018elderly\u2019 American ambulance driver [to me, at age 15, he seemed elderly] told me all about his family back home and how he had a daughter about my age and how much he missed them all. At long last, the war was over!\nThe city of Forchheim, just as with all of Western Germany, was now under the authority of a Military Government. German officials were checked out very carefully for any connection to the Nazis and many were, at least temporarily, sent to internment camps to be \u2018de-Nazified\u2019, or in many cases, sent on for further disposition. That was the time when neighbor turned often on neighbor and 'squealed' on him, especially when his own record was not quite clean. Mutti and I were also checked out and eventually given new I.D. cards. Even to travel from one town to another, you had to have a permit. This did not last more than about a year and then most of the day-to-day running of local government was turned over to \u2018clean\u2019 German authorities, under the watchful eye of the Allied command.\nFood was still very scarce; bartering and the black market thrived. Offer American cigarettes, or any American goods, and anything could be had. This was the time when the average farmer had the upper hand: for people who had valuable things to trade, like jewelry, furniture, good porcelain, etc., farm products were readily available. It was said that famers' barns were literally bursting with such goods. Of course, only the local people in small towns [like Forchheim], or refugees, or those who were not bombed out had things to trade. People like Mutti and I were glad to have the few things we had, and so we \"made do\". We rationed everything, even heavy, dry rye bread. Eggs, sugar, fresh butter, fresh whole milk, white flour -- all were unattainable luxuries, like real coffee or tea.\nI recall one day where Mutti and I had gone for a walk through the fields and came upon an apple orchard. The day before, the wind had knocked down some fruit, most of it kind of wormy and half green. So we picked a few off the ground to take home and make some applesauce. A farmer must have spotted us and came yelling and told us \u2018to quit stealing my apples, those on the ground were for my pigs!\u2019 Well, those were the times! What we actually lived on, I cannot even imagine any more. I guess it was potatoes that saved us from starving. With all the farms around Forchheim, this was one thing still available.\nEverything, from food to clothing to coal was rationed, and even those small amounts were, more often than not, unavailable. How well I remember standing for an hour or more in line at a grocery store, or at the butcher\u2019s, only to be told when it was finally my turn that they were all out; didn\u2019t know when the next shipment would come; and to try again in two or three days. Originally, we received one meal daily at the hospital. But before long even this was discontinued, as all the patients had been released and since the shooting was over, no more new patients were coming in. So once again, Mutti and I had to find some way to make a living; in the big upheaval after the war\u2019s end there was no pay or pension to be had.\nSome body Mutti knew, a former patient from the hospital, had opened a shop selling all kinds of handmade items, such as knitted sweaters, handmade tablecloths, etc., and to create his products, hired out knitting and crochet work to be done at home. We eagerly took it. He supplied the material, or the customers brought their own hoarded wool, crotchet yarn and other materials. You soon got to know all the \u2018locals\u2019 by all the material they brought in. Even though he charged dearly for the work to his customers, he paid his employees a pittance. I guess he ran what you would call a modern sweatshop, except we worked at home, often 'til late evening. Even though the pay was not much and money did not buy much, we had to have some kind of income. Mutti received a little each month from a business in which her dead brother was a partner, so between that and the knitting, somehow we managed. But soon even that was finished, because the knitting shop went broke. For a while, on our own, we tried to find people we could do some knitting or crocheting for, but the times were hard; besides, knitting was hardly something to keep a 16-year-old fully occupied.\nSchools started slowly to re-open, and Mutti wanted me to go back, but I flatly refused. She had to give in and somehow managed to at least get me something equivalent of today's GED (a work-equivalent diploma).\nThrough all this we still had not had any word from either Mutti\u2019s mother or the Kunisch family. Mail, even in the post-war American-occupied Western Zone was at the best sporadic, and completely impossible for the Russian-occupied Eastern Zone. They had no idea where we were, or even if we were alive; and neither did we about them. We did know, however, that the Poles, who were now occupying Silesia, were \u2018ethnically cleansing\u2019 all of their territory. This meant, of course, that all German citizens had to choose between renouncing their German citizenship and become Poles, or leave Silesia, losing all their farms, houses or other possessions, only taking with them what they could carry.\nOma Schmidthals and Tante Anna were well into their seventies, and we worried what that might do to them. The same, of course, was true for Oma Kunisch. The only way to find each other was through the Red Cross or by studying big bulletin boards in places were people might see a name on a list. Refugees were sent everywhere in the Western Zone. Finally, one day in the middle of 1946 we received a postcard telling us that Oma Schmidthals and Tante Anna were in the English Zone, somewhere near Braunschweig. Ordinarily that would probably be a 6-hour train ride. But trains were nowhere near to running on a regular schedule, yet, and you also had to get a special travel permit.\nWell, I, always being of an adventurous nature, decided to go and visit them. I took my backpack and set off. I made it all right, but it took me over 2 days to get to Braunschweig. Trains were filled to absolute capacity and I had never realized how pushy and nasty people can be. It was \"everybody for themselves.\" There were long waits in train stations. When I finally made it to Braunschweig I found out that the little, God-forsaken village where they lived was way out in the boondocks; no trains or buses went there. So I had a four-hour foot march ahead of me, but I made it!\nOma Schmidthals and Tante Anna were thrilled to see me. Both were physically OK, but their living conditions were horribly inadequate; Mutti and I were living in comparative luxury. They were quartered in an old farmhouse, one small room with no running water and a toilet across the yard. I stayed one day and night. I had hoped they would have some news of the Kunisch family, but when Oma and Tante Anna had to leave their home, the Kunisches were still there. [As it we found out later, the Kunisches stayed for another full year because Tante Trude had to have an operation and could not travel. Much later, they ended up in the same general area as Oma Schmidthals.]\nThe trip home to Forchheim was uneventful, just as long and tiring as the journey out to see them. I was rather glad to be back in Forchheim again. About six months after my visit, Oma Schmidthals and Tante Anna managed to move to Stuttgart, in the American Zone, and not too far from us. Tante Anna\u2019s older sister had died and left her a few belongings and a small apartment, where they lived till they both died a few years later.\nTime marches on. Food became even more scarce, and the German Reichsmark had so little value, it did not really buy anything of value, even if you could find it. I had turned 16, a birthday that came and went largely unnoticed. I was rather dissatisfied with the whole situation. Looking for work in Forchheim was useless; business was very slow to recover from the after-effects of the war. Compounding my trouble was the fact that I really did not have very much to offer, except my limited knowledge of English. Working for a German firm did not seem very appealing. Every one seemed so bitter and 'down'.\nI have always been a very positive person and try to look at the good side of a situation. That left me only one choice: Try for a job with the American Army, either in Bamburg or Erlangen. So I gathered all my courage and a certain bravado, and without Mutti\u2019s knowledge of what I was going to do, went to Erlangen. At the time, in 1947, Erlangen was the home of the 9th American Air Force. Luck was certainly with me: When I arrived at the Civilian Employment Office in Erlangen, they had just received a call from the photo lab at the base, and needed a person with a knowledge of English to help the American sergeant-in-charge with his lab technician, who spoke no English, and to assist around the lab. I still think that somebody else was supposed to apply for the job, but it was \u2018first come, first serve\u2019.\nThe first few weeks were pretty rough, but my boss was tremendously understanding, repeating things over and over. But that soon changed; I caught on pretty quick and really liked the job. The money wasn\u2019t too great, but I, as did all the German workers, received one daily meal at the mess hall, basically the same food as a regular G.I. That meant a whole lot. I learned to liked foods that were strange to me, such as Hominy, corn, white bread (a change after the hard black bread at home!) and various others things. Real coffee and milk! Butter on the side seemed like heaven!\nI caught the morning train from Forchheim and was usually home around 6:30 at night. Of course I got to know American soldiers, and that, in addition to the fact that I was working for the \u201cAmi\u201d did not sit too well with my neighbors. On top of that I started wearing lipstick, another sin! Mutti, surprisingly, did not object to the fact that I worked in Erlangen. It did mean that at least I had one decent meal a day and the food at home went further. I liked my job, made new friends and my English -- both reading and writing, and above all, my general conversation skills improved.\nSome of my new friends were American soldiers, and Mutti -- and above all, our landlady -- had to get used to that. Over much fussing and grumbling I was even able to bring somebody home on occasion, quite an achievement in those days! As much as our landlady grumbled, she never turned down an invitation to have a coup of \u2018real\u2019 coffee with me. The same with cigarettes, just as long as they did not have to acknowledge were they came from. Guess people never change!\nMy employment lasted 'til about January 1948. My boss, who had always been more than ethical, suddenly started to asked me if I would pose for him in the photo lab. Unsuspecting and naive as I was, I agreed; showed up and asked what he wanted me to do. That was when he suddenly locked the door and started making all kinds of propositions to me including, one where I sleep with him. When I strongly objected, he started to offer me a carton of cigarettes! That was it. I told him if he did not let me go immediately, I would not only inform his wife [whom I knew pretty well], but I would cause such a ruckus that he would be sorry. I got out of there real fast, and waited to see what would happen next. Then he got a lucky break: A new law came out, saying that nobody under 18 was allowed to work for the Americans. That gave him the excuse he needed -- I had three weeks to go 'til my 18th birthday and so I was laid off without any further ado.\nSo here I was, back home with Mutti, stuck in that small room. Then Mutti came up with an idea: In Regensburg, not far from Munich, an Interpreter school had opened. The Americans needed German translators, badly. So we checked it out, and in quick order I passed my entrance exam and started going to school to get my Interpreter Certificate.\nWhile in school, I stayed in Regensburg with a German family who rented me a small room. Every thing started off pretty well, and I was about half way thru the third trimester [the course was for 9 months] when everything collapsed. Over night, and, it seemed, without prior warning, the Currency Reform took place. Your old money was not worth anything [not that it had any buying power, anyhow] and everybody started out with 200 of the new Deutsch Marks. This was not too bad for people who had a regular job or income, but it put people like Mutti in a tough spot...and that, it seemed, was the end of school. I tried to stay on for awhile, but how to pay for it? I drifted around for a month or two, picking up occasional jobs, but eventually ended up back home in Forchheim.\nJobs were just that hard to come by, and I just was determined to work again for the Americans. Mutti and I earned what little money we could by doing knitting and crocheting work, or whatever was asked for. Eventually, we had enough for me to finish Interpreter\u2019s School, which got me back into working for the Americans. With my Interpreter\u2019s School diploma, I ran an ad in the local paper, listing my skills and stating that I was looking for a job. The German employment agency saw my ad and referred me to the Americans, who needed an interpreter to work at the American court, interpreting details of special court cases involving infractions by U.S. GIs (for example, when they got into barroom brawls, etc.).\nI also interpreted in court cases where German citizens were called as witnesses. It was here that I met Bill Tidmore, who was a company clerk, filling out chart sheets and handling other communications. He called me \u201cBlondie\u201d, and was always teasing me, \u201cBlondie, when are you going to go out with me.\u201d Of course, I wasn\u2019t in any hurry at first; we German girls enjoyed going around to the various mess halls at lunchtime and looking at all the young men, and debating which one we liked best. But he kept after me, and eventually, just to get him to stop, I said \u201cyes, let\u2019s go out.\u201d Not terribly long after, we married.\nIn 1952, I came to the United States with Bill, arriving in New York City on the 12th of May, on the U.S.S. \u2018Washington\u2019.",

It can be purchased from the Createspace e-store or at the Amazon link at the end of this post.\nThis is a story of how Alex unknowingly starts a chain reaction of \"pay it forward' acts, in memory of his friend, Skyler, who had recently gone to live with Jesus.\nI wrote this book in memory of Skyler Swain, who passed away in December 2013 at the young age of 18. As I was writing, I was moved to also dedicate it to the many young people my community has lost. While I only listed the names of those who I was able to reach family members of, please know that this book is for ALL the young angels we will always love, remember and hold dear to our hearts.\nHere is the link where you can purchase the book from Amazon.\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Paying-Forward-Skyler-style-Ruth-McDonald/dp/1507655649/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422583905&sr=8-1&keywords=Ruth+McDonald+Mair&pebp=1422583896888&peasin=1507655649\nIf you would like to purchase a signed copy directly from me, please email me at ruthswords@yahoo.com.\n\ufeffThrough no fault of hers or mine, I lost my very first best friend of three and a half years at the early age of three and a\nhalf\u2014yes, she had already been my best friend my entire life. She was three years older than I. We had lived together, eaten together, shared a bedroom, played together, and I am sure we must have fought together at some point throughout the entire three and a half years I had known her\u2014she was my sister. My older siblings and I had been removed from our biological home and placed in foster homes. My sister and I were lucky enough to be placed in the same foster home and, I believe to this day, that gave us a stronger bond of friendship and sisterhood than most other siblings ever have. However, life dictated that in December 1965, our close comradery would cease. She remembers coming home from school one day and finding me gone. I wasn\u2019t gone on a short venture to return in a few hours\u2014I was gone forever\u2014I had been adopted by another family. She remembers \u201cSave the Last Dance for Me\u201d playing on the radio. She remembers trying to understand and cope with a separation that we were promised would never happen. Shortly after I was adopted, our foster parents adopted her.\nI remember asking about her over the years and my parents telling me that they were certain she was just fine and had been adopted as well. They truly believed we were only foster sisters\u2014they were never told I had a biological sister in foster care at the same time and place they were visiting me.\nThe years passed and in the year I turned 20, I decided to try and contact the court to see if I could find this long-lost very first best friend. It took some time to get a response from the court, and it was not what I wanted to hear--exactly. The court confirmed that I had a sister, but that I also had several biological siblings! It was not what I wanted to hear exactly because they could not give me information on my sister as there was no release on file signed by her. However, through other contact information the court was allowed to provide, I was able to get in touch with my sister after just a few days.\nWe talked via phone a few times then decided to meet. When I stepped off the airplane and saw her standing there, it was almost like looking into a full length mirror. I think her coat may have been a different shade of purple than mine, but other than that, we may as well have been twins. I will never ever forget that moment. Since then, we have been in constant contact. We now live less than an hour away from each other and even work at the same place. The ending to this story is bittersweet. Although we live and work close together and still get together, we no longer have the connection we had as children, and I miss that very much. I feel like a part of my soul was taken away when we were separated.\nI have written this for all the other sisters out there who have had the opportunity to grow up together, to be together through the laughter, the tears, the loving and the fighting. Please don\u2019t take it all for granted\u2014the bond of love between two sisters should be so strong that it can never be broken. I love my sister with all my heart and maybe someday she and I will have a connection like we once had and be best friends again\u2014who knows, maybe we will end up in a nursing home together! If we do, I certainly hope she saves the last dance for me!",

        "raw_content": "21 de October de 2018 | 1:00 pm | Tags: casalud, clikisalud\nResearchers from the Institute of Innovation and Sustainability in the Agro-Food Chain (IS-FOOD) of the Public University of Navarra (UPNA) have published a study in which they show that the nutritional quality of breakfast is associated with important cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors in overweight children, even in those with good physical condition who practice exercise every day.\nThe authors of the article, published in the journal Nutrients, observed that children who consumed breakfasts with poorer nutritional quality and higher energy density (understood as more calories per gram of food) had higher levels of cholesterol and uric acid and a higher insulin resistance.\nThe scientists conclude that nutritional education programs to improve cardiovascular health of the pediatric population should include specific recommendations aimed at reducing the consumption of high energy density foods in that first meal of the day.\nChildren who ate breakfasts with worse quality had higher levels of cholesterol and uric acid in blood and higher insulin resistance.\n\u201cBreakfast is not only the first meal of the day, but it can also be considered the most important,\u201d says Idoia Labayen, a professor in the Department of Health Sciences of the UPNA. \u201cIn spite of this, many children go to school without having breakfast, which makes them arrive hungrier at lunchtime and can eat more than they should.\u201d\n\u201cThe absence of breakfast has been previously related to excess fat and other associated disorders, so the promotion of breakfast is already being used as part of the strategy in the prevention of childhood obesity,\u201d adds Labayen.\nQuality at breakfast\nHowever, beyond breakfast or not, the quality of the first meal of the day is very relevant. After evaluating the dietary habits of breakfast of a total of 203 schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 years with excess weight, it was observed that 13% of children did not eat breakfast daily and that those who consumed breakfasts with worse nutritional quality and higher density energetics had higher levels of cholesterol and uric acid in the blood and greater resistance to insulin.\n\u201cPrecisely, a breakfast of higher energy density had a negative impact on glucose metabolism, even in those children who complied with the daily recommendations of physical activity, that is 60 minutes in moderate to vigorous intensity,\u201d explains the expert.\nThe researchers say that nutritional education programs to improve the cardiovascular and metabolic health of children should focus on reducing the consumption of high energy density foods, such as \u201cultra-processed products, commonly present in children\u2019s breakfasts\u201d, concludes Labayen.",

Presumably the judge, a Bush appointee himself, wouldn\u2019t have said it if he hadn\u2019t been forced to be the outrageousness of the arguments presented to him.\nThe case involves the Administration\u2019s claim of an absolute \u201cexecutive privilege\u201d against Congressional subpoena, a claim that, as the opinion notes, was shredded in Nixon v. United States. (Yes, I know that would be a good title for a biography of Tricky Dick, but it\u2019s also the name of the Watergate Tapes case.)\nClearly the Bushoids think they can just run the clock. So they can, if the Congress waits on the courts. But with this decision in hand, I\u2019d favor the self-help approach. Once the recalcitrant ex-officials have been arrested and are in the custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms, the central doctrine asserted by the Administration &#8212 that the courts shouldn\u2019t intervene in fights between the two \u201cpolitical\u201d branches &#8212 works for the Congress and not against it. Given how unpopular the President is, and how unpopular the Congress is mostly for being spineless, I bet the net political fallout is positive.\n\u2026one power that Congress has at its disposal is inherent contempt. Following a citation for congressional contempt, Congress could dispatch the Sergeant-at-Arms to detain Ms. Miers and Mr. Bolten in preparation for a trial before Congress. See Morton Rosenberg, Cong. Research Serv., Congress\u2019s Contempt Power: Law, History, Practice, and Procedure, No. 34-097, at 15 (2008), available [here]. In response to such action, both sides here appear to agree (see Tr. at 85) that Ms. Miers and Mr. Bolten would likely file a writ of habeas corpus with this Court to challenge the legality of their detention.\nAs a side-benefit, this might remind the wingers of why habeas was a good idea in the first place.",

A lot of it was just plain superstition, created by people where were coming out of the 50s into a more free era, and needed something to hold on to.\nIf you\u2019re still reading or following folks who were popular in the 60s, 70s and so forth, you might check those belief systems, and see if that\u2019s what you really think, now. We\u2019ve been evolving pretty fast.\nThere are lots of new voices, and new ways of thinking that are well beyond Law of Attraction, the Secret and so forth. There are lots of new ways of thinking that aren\u2019t fear based, or based on a need for protection from evils spirits.\nTake a look at what you\u2019re reading and following, and just seek the fear: of there\u2019s fear there, of doing it wrong, of being in lack, of succumbing to mysterious forces\u2026 you might want to let that belief system go.\nWe\u2019re in a different place now. The old rules, the archaic superstitions of the early new age, useful as they were for that time\u2026 they no longer apply.\nWe\u2019ve moved beyond.\nP.S. There's still time to sign up for Intuition University Spring 2016.\nI'm ready to let go, lead the way!\nVery important message on fear.

Lawrence Rice\u2019s ideal world, there would be no sides in the debate between mid-frequency sonar use and protecting marine mammals.\n\u201cOne of the greatest things about being a carrier [commanding officer] is seeing all the marine life out there. To think we\u2019re out there trying to kill everything in our second home just isn\u2019t true,\u201d said Rice, the director of the Navy\u2019s environmental readiness division and former commander of the carrier USS Enterprise.\nThe environmental groups suing the Navy over sonar training off the California coast express similar sentiments.\n\u201cThe people in the environmental community have a deep respect for what the Navy does, and I know people in the Navy have a profound love for the sea,\u201d said Michael Jasny, a senior policy analyst for the National Resources Defense Council.\nBut while both parties seem to agree on a need to balance naval readiness with marine mammal protection, polemic discussions over what constitutes the right levels of care and preparedness, as well as debate about the scientific evidence \u2014 or lack thereof \u2014 of the technology\u2019s effects on whales, dolphins and other sea creatures, are not likely to be resolved soon.\nCurrently, four lawsuits are wending through the U.S. courts regarding sonar use, including one by the\nNational Resources Defense Council and others over sonar use in the populated whale migration routes off Southern California.\nAt issue is an injunction placed by a district court judge earlier this year requiring the Navy to observe certain training practices beyond current mitigation measures.\nU.S. District Court Judge Florence-Marie Cooper ruled Jan.\n3 that the Navy must shut down sonar in its Southern California exercise area if whales or dolphins are spotted within 2,000 meters of its source, unless the exercise is at a critical point. The injunction also barred the use of sonar within 12 nautical miles of shore and expressly prohibited it in the Catalina basin, an area between Santa Catalina Island and San Clemente Island that provides rich foraging for animals such as blue and grey whales and is considered a prime anti-submarine warfare training ground by the Navy for its unique undersea terrain.\nFacing a series of exercises it considered critical for predeployment of the USS Abraham Lincoln Strike Group, the Navy asked the Bush administration to intervene, and, on Jan. 15, the president signed a waiver exempting the service from parts of the Coastal Zone Management Act, allowing it to conduct exercises under its regular training conditions.\nBut in February, Cooper rejected the waiver, expressing concerns about the constitutionality of such an exemption. And the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Cooper\u2019s ruling, and the injunction as well, prompting the Navy to file an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court.\nAs the high court decides whether to hear the case, environmental groups call the injunction a fair compromise and say the circuit court\u2019s decision was a win for all who care about the sea.\nThe U.S. Navy and the environmentalists suing it over the use of mid-frequency sonar and its effect on marine life agree that they must balance naval readiness with marine mammal protection.\n\u25a0 Division is over what constitutes the right levels of care and preparedness, as well scientific evidence.\n\u25a0 The Navy has spent $17 million to $20 million in each of the last five years annually to research sonar\u2019s effects.",

The \u201cpositive\u201d economic growth, care of the elderly, an increase in maternity leave, education, tax, employment, and the administration's \u201ccontinual efforts to reduce the cost of living\u201d.\nThen there was tourism, the environment, fishing, agriculture, small businesses, the water supply, and his plans to build tunnels between Cascade and Grand Anse Mahe, and between Beau Vallon and English River.\nThere was also \u201can ambitious programme\u201d to build more houses.\nHis references to health spoke of drug and alcohol abuse and more exercise for everyone.\nHe spoke of family values: \u201cFamily is the foundation of our society. The state of the nation depends on the state of our families, the state of our communities, and the state of our economy.\u201d\nThere was also mention of the controversy oover Assumption island, which I comment on elsewhere in Seychelles Life, (We need a referendum to sort out the confusion over Assumption).\nIt was all sounding so grand. But then came the part of the speech where I caught my breath.\nMr Faure comes over as an easy-going nice guy; a man who despite being President really wants to be thought of as a genial friend with some good, solid ideas. We should not be fooled. He is clearly a man who wants to keep a tight control on his people, a control freak who it appears will not tolerate any dissent lightly.\nThis is what he said: \u201cMr Speaker, our democracy has also seen an increase in the space for civil liberties and freedom of expression.\n\u201cThe media that represents the fourth pillar of our democracy plays an important role today. We also have several social media platforms. These are good, but what is important is that we use these resources in a responsible manner and maintain respect for others.\n\u201cWe live in a free country, in a democratic country. Protesting is a right under our Constitution, but it needs to be done with responsibility, upholding order and peace. This is essential in the maintenance of stability, which is what allows the country to progress.\n\u201cWe are working on a regulation under the \u2018Public Assembly Act 2015\u2019 that will establish what we would call a \u2018Speaker\u2019s Corner\u2019 in Victoria. This is a place where our citizens will be able to express themselves and their opinion.\u201d\nSo that's where he wants all public protests to be held. Just one small corner, out of sight of the general public and presumably, out of mind too. Is that what we deserve? I think not. We should put a block on that plan immediately.\nSome commentators have said that his speech was really the start of his presidential campaign. It was an early attempt to woo voters to his side with a positive list of hopes and aims.\nThat raises several questions: Does it mean we shall soon get a date for an election, something I have long campaigned for.? Will it mean that Wavel Ramkalawan and Patrick Pillay will have to up their game?\nIn the meantime, we should keep an eye on this nice-guy President and make sure he doesn't take us back to the bad old days. We have fought too long to give up that easily.",

        "raw_content": "Panama Canal head expects fewer China, U.S. ships if trade war escalates\nPANAMA CITY (Reuters) \u2013 Fewer ships from China and the United States could use the Panama Canal if trade tensions escalate between the two economic giants, but the dip could be offset by grain exports from north Brazil, the head of the organization that operates the waterway said.\nThe canal, which cuts through Panama creating an essential shipping route between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, is a major source of revenue for the central American country.\n\u201cMost cargoes passing through the Panama Canal come from or go to the United States and China,\u201d Panama Canal Authority chief Jorge Quijano told Reuters late on Thursday. \u201cTensions between them could ultimately have an impact on the amount of loadings using the waterway in any direction.\u201d\nThe administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is readying a list of $200 billion in Chinese imports on which it plans to levy tariffs in coming days, stepping up the trade war between the world\u2019s two largest economies.\nHowever, Quijano said he expected more bulk cargo from Brazil, the world\u2019s largest soy producer, would boost canal traffic.\nBrazilian soy has traditionally been shipped across the Atlantic and Indian oceans, but farmers in top soy state Mato Grosso earlier this year signed a memorandum of understanding with the canal to look at ways to cut transport costs and increase grain volumes using the waterway via ports in the north of Brazil.\nNew demand for U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) in countries including Japan and Mexico could also compensate for fewer vessels going to China, Quijano added, saying: \u201cThe canal has many ways to ease any impact.\u201d\nThe Panama Canal has not disclosed updated figures on vessel transit by volume. In its fiscal year 2017, which ended in September 2017, it handled a record 403.8 million tonnes, including 143 million tonnes in container ships and 79 million tonnes in bulk carriers.\nBrazil and Argentina have already taken a greater share of the Asian grains markets, leading to lower traffic through the canal in the first few months of 2018, Quijano said. To offset that, Panama needs to convince Brazilian exporters to use the canal, Quijano said.\nAbout 2 million tonnes of Brazilian soy went through the canal last year, out of annual soy exports of around 60 million tonnes, Brazilian data shows.\nFor LNG exports, almost 90 percent passing through the canal comes from the United States, according to figures from the Panama Canal Authority.\n\u201cIf China eventually imports less LNG from the United States, we will see more imports from Japan, Korea and Mexico, which would compensate,\u201d Quijano said.\n(Reporting by Elida Moreno; Writing by Marianna Parraga; Editing by Frank Jack Daniel and Bill Rigby)\nThe post Panama Canal head expects fewer China, U.S. ships if trade war escalates appeared first on One America News Network.\nhttps://ift.tt/2p868co\nMary Daly, labor expert, picked to run San Francisco Fed\nIMF\u2019s $3 billion tranche to Argentina on hold as talks go on: source",

Inexpensive e-books make it more likely that people will make those bets. I agree with the analysts who assert that when the price of an e-book is more than $10, people are going to slow down on taking a gamble on a good book.\nAnd if e-books become as expensive as the hardcover edition of a book, keep a look out for the return of the used paperback pile in the office breakroom.",

        "title": "Game Music :: Star Ocean Soundtrack :: Review by Don",
        "raw_content": "Star Ocean Soundtrack :: Review by Don\nAlbum Title: Star Ocean Soundtrack\nCatalog No.: KDSD-00028/9\nStar Ocean, a series developed by tri-Ace and originally published by Enix (now Square Enix), features veteran composer Motoi Sakuraba as the main composer. The overall themes of the games have a sci-fi story to them with some beautiful setting within its vast galaxy. Motoi Sakuraba, known for his progressive rock style, contributes his musical styling to the soundtrack to the series. While the original game in the series was released for the Super Nintendo in 1995, it took a whole nine years for it to receive a true soundtrack release thanks to the popular demand generated by Star Ocean Till the End of Time. The arranged album Star Ocean Perfect Sound Collection was released soon after the game, but this didn't compensate for the lack of the original score. When it did come, it was really worth the wait. It's my personal opinion that this underexposed score wonderfully exposes the Star Ocean sound and it is also beautifully remastered to achieve a sound quality far superior to the original, the final twelve bonus tracks aside.\nThe Star Ocean series utilizes a series of musical styles. Within the games you'll hear progressive rock, soft elegant pieces, orchestral pieces, and the occasional playful piece. It's a very diverse series, although the focus is mainly on the progressive rock and the softer themes. Sadly, there are only a few playful themes that really stick out in this soundtrack. \"Innocence,\" I believe, is a town theme. It has an airy disposition to it, created by the rhythmic percussion and the flowing woodwind passages. It's very pleasant. The other track that sticks out is \"Sunny Place.\" It has a more prominent flute section that adds to the playfulness of the piece. In addition, the orchestral highlights and the catchy bass line all work quite well together in producing this beautiful sound.\nWhile the orchestral pieces on this theme are also few in comparison, there are a few that offer a nice soundscape. \"Labo of Tas\" is a very dark theme. However, the epic nature of the brass combined with the haunting string work and chorus work makes for a track with tons of cinematic potential. The contrast between the sweeping, powerful sections and the softer slow sections makes for a very nice treat. \"First Experience\" is a very powerful piece of music. The brass synth is a bit obnoxious, but not as obnoxious as those found in Star Ocean The Second Story. The sense of urgency in this piece is prominent, especially when the strings come in to create a very crisis-driven piece of music.\n\"Past Days\" is another powerful orchestral composition. The overall melody of this piece is quite epic and, while the focus is mainly on the brass, there are softer woodwind passages that contrast nicely with the main theme, creating an air of mystery as well. This is probably my favorite of the orchestral pieces. \"New Age\" combines many different atmospheres. Starting off suspenseful, the string work really makes the beginning of this track. As it progresses though, the percussion takes on a militaristic sound and adds to the depth of the piece, creating moments of triumph. It's an excellent theme, and I believe it's the ending theme to the game.\nOne of the major strengths of this soundtrack is definitely the soft compositions. \"Ambition\" and \"Calm Time\" are definitely influences for later Star Ocean soundtracks. There is a tender magical atmosphere present in these pieces and the instrumentation executes the melodies quite nicely. They are easily a few of my favorites from the Star Ocean series. \"Full of Sorrow\" is a very somber piece of music, played mainly on the violin. However, the inclusion of some choral work and harp accents makes the track all the more sorrowful. It may be a bit clich\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd nowadays, but I still find it extremely touching. \"Stream of Wind\" has an Asian influence about it. The haunting combination of piano, acoustic guitar and woodwinds makes for a compelling theme. \"Purge Thyself\" is a nice, chilling piano work with some harp and choral accents. It builds very nicely, although the introduction gets a bit repetitive, into an excellent theme with hints of purity.\nLastly, I'll brush up on the progressive rock style found within the soundtrack. The major boss battle theme, \"Tense Atmosphere,\" has a nice focus on woodwinds for the majority of the piece. The accompanying rhythm is highly addicting and the melody is just superb. As the piece progresses, the more prominent progressive rock elements are introduced with a shift in the bass line rhythm and the addition of that classic keyboard sound for which Sakuraba is famous. The normal battle theme, \"For Achieve,\" is another excellent piece of work. It has the same elements as the boss battle theme in it, but it isn't as strong. It's a fun battle theme, but I prefer the boss battle theme.\n\"Dancing Sword\" reminds me a lot of some of Sakuraba's more experimental battle themes, such as \"Chaotic Dance\" and \"Bitter Dance\" from Baten Kaitos and Star Ocean Till the End of Time respectively. It's got an infectious rhythm and the melody is fairly decent. The inclusion of choral work is an interesting development. It's not the strongest piece on the album, but it is enjoyable. \"Ancient Ruin\" is definitely reminiscent of some of his later dungeon themes. Although it has a very tribal focus, especially in the rhythm, I like the inclusion of the progressive rock elements and how they contrast with the organic feel of the piece. \"True Figure\" is an excellent theme. It has a very sinister aura and the introductory piano and choral work that leads into the progressive rock frenzy just adds to the overall depth of the piece. It's a simply stunning piece of work.\nThere are also a few pieces from the original sound version of the soundtrack. They don't really offer much to the soundtrack, but they do give a sense of how it originally sounded in game. They also include the opening themes for the game, \"Departures\" and \"New Age\", surprisingly omitted from the remastered sound version such that the battle theme \"Tense Atmosphere\" opens the album instead. The ending theme \"Mother Ocean\" is entirely absent from the soundtrack.\nThe Star Ocean Soundtrack has a nice mixture of elements that the Star Ocean series is known for. Sakuraba crafts themes using his signature progressive rock style, but at the same time he is also able to craft some much softer and elegant themes. The soundtrack also has some playful pieces as well as more orchestral focused ones. Overall, it's a fairly solid bunch, although I find it to be the weakest of the series.",

        "raw_content": "Man with Stage 3 Colon Cancer Refuses Chemotherapy & Treats Himself with Vegan Diet\nChris Wark is a cancer survivor and his testimony is extremely powerful and because of that we shall present it to you in this article. His story will tell you that cancer can be beaten as he already managed that even though he was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer.\nThe conventional treatments of cancer are surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. These treatments are recommended by doctors who say that these are the only ways for healing cancer with no guarantee whatsoever. Not many cancer patients try alternative healing.\nWhen Wark was diagnosed with this horrible disease, the first thing doctors suggested was surgery removal of tumors, however the cancer was not stopped, as a matter of fact it continued spreading to his lymph nodes. Here it is what Wark says regarding this issue, quoting:\n\u201cSurgery does not cure cancer, especially not stage 3. If it did, that\u2019s all they would do. There would be no need for chemo and radiation.\nThe medical industry has known that surgery does not cure cancer for at least 100 years. Cancer is a systemic metabolic disease, the result of a body that is nutrient deficient, overloaded with toxins, and has an overloaded or suppressed immune system.\nIf the body is not given the essential nutrients it needs to repair, regenerate and detoxify, cancer will most assuredly come back after surgery.\nA diet rich in fruits and vegetables, juices and smoothies is the most powerful way to promote the body\u2019s ability to heal itself. All processed food must be eliminated.\nAnimal products should be severely restricted or eliminated for a season until the cancer is gone. And it\u2019s ok if some people don\u2019t believe me. I know lots of survivors that have healed cancer without surgery, but skeptics won\u2019t believe them either,\u201d (The rest is at www.chrisbeatcancer.com )\nUnfortunately, cancer has become a highly profitable business and turned into large industry providing billions of dollars for corporative companies. It seems that no one cares that this is a horrible disease of which people die of, and the conventional treatments do not help the cancer patients, and the chemo drugs just fuel the fire.\nA study released in August 2003 showed that chemotherapy was beneficial only for 2.1% of all adult patients diagnosed with cancer. The results were based on randomized clinical trials, including the effect of cytotoxic chemotherapy.\nThis information was gathered from the cancer registry in Australia and the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results data in the USA for 1998.The obtained results revealed that curative and adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy showed a 2.3% success in 5-year survival in Australian adults, and 2.1% in Americans.\nThe alternative treatments involve natural ingredients like cannabis, baking soda, hemp oil, and so on. These treatments were backed up by science.\nResearchers have confirmed that plant-based diet prevents 60% of chronic disease deaths.\nMoreover, a group of researchers at the University of Alberta, Canada, discovered new cancer treatment. However, dichloroacetate is still ignored by the medical industry as it is not profitable for them.\nWatch the following video, and find out some useful data.

Jesus at the cross transforms that human sacrificial mechanism by his own self-sacrifice. Jesus, in offering forgiveness from the cross, transforms our pattern of denial of the \u201cother\u201d into compassion for the \u201cother\u201d people that we turn into our victim, and opens up the possibility of reconciliation between all of our human family. As disciples of Jesus, we must come to live new lives of compassion and self-sacrifice. In our experience in Jesus Christ, if it is true, the compassionate ability to offer forgiveness from God arises within us, and mercy, compassion, and forgiveness, which are more vast than our sin, can fill the world.",

        "raw_content": "Point of view is the way the author allows you to \u201csee\u201d and \u201chear\u201d what\u2019s going on. Skillful authors can fix their readers\u2019 attention on exactly the detail, opinion, or emotion the author wants to emphasize by manipulating the point of view of the story.\nPoint of view comes in three varieties, which the English scholars have handily numbered for your convenience:\nFirst-person point of view is in use when a character narrates the story with I-me-my-mine in his or her speech. The advantage of this point of view is that you get to hear the thoughts of the narrator and see the world depicted in the story through his or her eyes. However, remember that no narrator, like no human being, has complete self-knowledge or, for that matter, complete knowledge of anything. Therefore, the reader\u2019s role is to go beyond what the narrator says.\nFor example, Harper Lee\u2019s To Kill a Mockingbird is told from the point of view of Scout, a young child. She doesn\u2019t grasp the complex racial and socioeconomic relations of her town \u2014 but the reader does, because Scout gives information that the reader can interpret. Also, Scout\u2019s innocence reminds the reader of a simple, \u201cit\u2019s-not-fair\u201d attitude that contrasts with the rationalizations of other characters.\nSecond-person point of view, in which the author uses you and your, is rare; authors seldom speak directly to the reader. When you encounter this point of view, pay attention. Why? The author has made a daring choice, probably with a specific purpose in mind. Most times, second-person point of view draws the reader into the story, almost making the reader a participant in the action.\nHere\u2019s an example: Jay McInerney\u2019s best-selling Bright Lights, Big City was written in second person to make the experiences and tribulations of the unnamed main character more personal and intimate for the reader.\nThird-person point of view is that of an outsider looking at the action. The writer may choose third-person omniscient, in which the thoughts of every character are open to the reader, or third-person limited, in which the reader enters only one character\u2019s mind, either throughout the entire work or in a specific section. Third-person limited differs from first-person because the author\u2019s voice, not the character\u2019s voice, is what you hear in the descriptive passages.\nIn Virginia Woolf\u2019s wonderful novel Mrs. Dalloway, you\u2019re in one character\u2019s mind at a time. You know the title character\u2019s thoughts about Peter, the great love of her youth, for example, and then a few pages later, you hear Peter\u2019s thoughts about Mrs. Dalloway. Fascinating! When you\u2019re reading a third-person selection, either limited or omniscient, you\u2019re watching the story unfold as an outsider. Remember that most writers choose this point of view.\nPosted in Trainyoucan | Tagged point, understanding, view",

        "raw_content": "If the Grand Jury last Thursday voted to indict David Perry on fraud and Grand Larceny\ncharges, there will be procedures that will be followed. A lot of people are asking what's next so here is some information about the procedures that will be followed:\nMost people know what happens during a criminal trial, but very few understand what happens during grand jury indictment proceedings. The purpose of a grand jury is to decide whether or not to indict a suspect for the charges that the prosecution wants to bring.\nGrand juries are \"secret\" proceedings during which witnesses can give testimony without the presence of the suspect or his defense attorney. It is more informal than a trial, and witnesses are allowed to tell \"stories\" or give long explanations rather than simply answering the prosecutor's questions.\nFirst, the prosecutor will give an opening statement to the grand jury and give reasons why he or she feels there is sufficient evidence to indict. The grand jury will be given a \"bill\", which details the charges against the suspect, and will explain any extenuating circumstances that give him or her reason to request an indictment.\nUsually, prosecutors present only the minimum amount of evidence to secure an indictment. Since the defense attorney will have access to the grand jury transcript after an indictment has been returned, the prosecutor will not want to show his or her \"full hand\" until a trial date has been set. In most cases, evidence presented before a grand jury consists of testimony from witnesses and, in some cases, expert witnesses.\nBefore the grand jury indictment proceedings begin, the prosecutor will have notified all witnesses who must appear. Witnesses who fear that they might be under investigation have the right to refuse any questions the prosecutor asks. However, most prosecutors are smart enough to call only witnesses who can truly help their cause for indictment.\nAlthough the suspect and his or her defense attorney will not be present while the prosecutor delivers evidence, he or she can claim the right to testify in front of the grand jury. This is usually not favorable for the defense, but if they believe that the suspect can inspire sympathy from the grand jury, they may decide that it is a viable option.\nThe suspect will give his or her account of what happened leading up to the crime, and will give reasons why he or she should not be indicted. The defense attorney is not allowed in the grand jury during this testimony, but the suspect can leave the grand jury room at any time to request the counsel of an attorney. Once the testimony has been given, the prosecutor can cross-examine the suspect to try and refute his or her statements.\nThe grand jury is given as much time as they need to indict, and when they have concluded their discussion, they will return a \"true bill\" or a \"no-bill\". A true bill means that the grand jury has recommended indictment, while a no-bill means that they do not feel that there is sufficient evidence to indict. (Reprinted with credit to Steve Thompson, Associated Content/Yahoo)\nIn the United States, a federal indictment is written statement formally accusing a person of a crime. This is usually handed down by a grand jury after they have reviewed evidence and decided that there is sufficient to try a person for the crime. After a federal indictment, the accused person is arrested and detained, unless he can pay his set bail. He will then plead not guilty or guilty. In the case of a not guilty plea, the case will usually proceed to trial.\nAfter a federal indictment, if an accused person has not already been detained, law enforcement officials will attempt to locate and arrest him. In many cases, an arrest warrant will be issued. This is a document officially stating that police officers can and will arrest him. When the accused has been arrested, he may then go before a judge for a bail hearing.\nDuring the bail hearing, a judge will look at the details of the case and determine whether the accused is a serious flight risk. In cases involving particularly violent crimes or repeat offenders, the accused may be denied bail. Other times, the judge will set an amount that the accused must pay to get out of jail, known as a bail amount.\nThe next step after a federal indictment and bail hearing is usually a preliminary hearing known as an arraignment, or a post federal indictment arraignment. This is a short hearing in which the defendant is formally read the details concerning the crimes of which he is accused. He is then given a chance to plead guilty or not guilty.\nA person may choose to plead guilty because of an overwhelming amount of evidence against him. Sometimes, federal prosecutors may also offer him a plea bargain, or plea agreement. With a plea agreement, prosecutors typically offer to charge the defendant with a lesser crime or impose a lighter sentence in exchange for him pleading guilty.\nDefendants who choose to plead not guilty will typically go through a criminal trial. During this trial, prosecutors will present the evidence against the defendant, including any eyewitness and forensic evidence. A defendant's attorneys will also be allowed to state their case, presenting evidence in defense of the accused.\nWhen both parties have presented all of their evidence, a jury will then deliberate before making a decision whether the defendant is guilty. If found guilty, a judge will then decide on a sentence. This can include stiff fines, along with incarceration. Defendants who have been found not guilty are free to leave.\nReprinted with credit to:\nEdited By: W. Everett from Wise Geek \u00a9\nThank you Leigh...",

        "raw_content": "by Roslyn Arlin Mickelson & Bobbie J. Everett - 2008\nBackground/Context: This article describes neotracking, a new form of tracking in North Carolina that is the outgrowth of the state\ufffds reformed curricular standards, the High School Courses of Study Framework (COS). Neotracking combines older versions of rigid, comprehensive tracking with the newer, more flexible within-subject area curricular differentiation to form an overarching, multilevel framework for high school curricula.\nThe Course of Study Framework requires 8th graders to select one of three Courses of Study prior to entering high school: Career Preparation, College/Tech Preparation, or College/University Preparation. Exceptional children are enrolled in Occupations, a fourth COS. The COS reform was instituted, in part, to facilitate reaching North Carolina\ufffds twin goals of equity and excellence for all students.\nPurpose: The purposes of this article are to investigate if neotracking facilitates or hinders reaching these goals; if there is a relationship between district and school demographics, students\ufffd racial backgrounds and their COS assignments; and if between- and within-school variations in COS placements result in greater or less race and social class stratification in opportunities to learn.\nResearch Design: Using aggregate data on COS enrollments among Class of 2005 high school seniors in the entire state of North Carolina and the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS), we evaluate COS enrollment patterns by student, school, and school system characteristics.\nFindings: Results indicate that although a majority of students across North Carolina enroll in the College/University Prep COS, the variations in enrollment reflect the race, ethnic, and social class stratification in North Carolina. Students in affluent NC school districts are significantly more likely to enroll in the top COS than those living in less affluent school districts. COS enrollments vary by students\ufffd race and ethnicity, too. Likewise, COS enrollments are related to the racial composition of a high school\ufffds student body.\nConclusions: Neotracking tends to reproduce race and social class stratification of opportunities to learn, resulting in the worst of both worlds: the majority of North Carolina\ufffds high school graduates are prepared neither for higher education nor for the workplace\ufffdone of the very problems that the accountability movement and the NC Course of Study program was intended to address.\nPurchase Neotracking in North Carolina: How High School Courses of Study Reproduce Race and Class-Based Stratification\nA Comparative Study of the Concentration and Regular Plans of Organization in the Senior High School\nRacial Stratification and Education in the United States: Why Inequality Persists\nOpportunity at the Crossroads: Racial Inequality, School Segregation, and Higher Education in California\nErasure and Survival: Creating a Future and Managing a Past in a Restructuring High School\nROSLYN ARLIN MICKELSON is a Professor of Sociology and Adjunct Professor of Public Policy, Information Technology, and Women\ufffds Studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.

        "title": "Transport Firm Changes May Force Employees To Move On",
        "raw_content": "Transport Firm Changes May Force Employees To Move On\nJanuary 6, 2006: Greenville's Roadway Express facility is losing a significant number of jobs as the company realigns its business to better reflect traffic patterns and reduce transit times, said Michael J. Smid, the company's president and chief executive officer. Although Smid declined to say how many positions would be affected, a local union official put the number at more than 200 jobs.\nSkip Barnett, a Teamsters Local Union No. 28 business agent who works with freight contracts, said the union expects to whittle that number to about 200 positions and added that union employees would be allowed to move with the work.\n\"This is a lot of middle-class jobs for the Upstate to lose,\" Barnett said.\nSalaries for Roadway's long-haul drivers -- among those affected -- average between $60,000 and $85,000 annually, Smid said.\n\"If you take this by itself, it's bad, but you can handle it,\" said Bill Pendleton, area manager of the state Employment Security Commission's Greenville office. \"If you look at the big picture -- what's been happening for the past year or two -- it's concerning. But as tough as we have it, we're still below the state average\" when it comes to unemployment.\nGreenville County reported an unemployment rate of 5.8 percent in November, compared with 7.1 percent joblessness for the state as a whole.\nRoadway's Greenville facility, which presently has more than 300 employees, has both a consolidation and distribution unit and a local delivery unit, Smid said. Roadway Express is eliminating the consolidation and distribution function in Greenville.\nBarnett said between 80 and 85 employees represented by the union would remain at the facility. A few office workers and supervisors not covered by the union contract also would continue to work there.\n\"Greenville is part of a change in our national transportation network,\" Smid said. \"The change is an effort to improve the speed, the reliability and the efficiency\" of the company's service and to reduce the amount of cargo handling.\nThe greatest impact of realignment would be felt at the company's terminals in Hagerstown, Md., and Greenville. They will \"continue being facilities and operations, but their scale will change,\" Smid told TrafficWorld, an industry-related magazine.\nMore than 1,000 people nationwide will be affected by the changes, he said. Affected employees in Greenville include drivers, freight-handling professionals, supervisory personnel and support personnel.\n\"In each change of operations, we are repositioning our people, our resources and our assets to match changes we have seen in traffic patterns,\" Smid said.\nRoadway plans to reduce freight handling in the Northeast and deliver to distances of 1,000 miles in two days or less. Coast-to-coast deliveries will be made in no more than four days. Deliveries from the central part of the country to the West Coast will take three days.\nAlthough no changes have been implemented yet, the restructuring will be completed in the first quarter, Smid said.\nHe said the realignment will not reduce the size of the overall work force, and Barnett said the company probably would hire about 40 additional drivers. About 30 locations will gain employees as work is moved to there.\n\"Anybody who is working under a contract is being allowed to follow their work if they wish,\" Barnett said, who added the company would pay moving expenses.\nSmid said that employees also have the option to move to the local delivery unit if jobs are available.\nBarnett said workers who choose not to leave Greenville would be placed on layoff and are eligible for recall for five years. He said any of those employees also would be eligible to be hired at other unionized carriers in the area and must be considered before other applicants.\nSmid said the company's work agreement does not include a severance package because the employees are subject to recall.\nBarnett said he believes that anyone who wants similar work in the region would be able to find it even though trucking is a little slow this time of year.\nAlthough some union members are upset about the Roadway restructuring, about half of Greenville's work came to the area the same way years ago, he said.\nRoadway Express has initiated the required legal notifications to the Teamsters Union and state agencies, Smid said.\nPendleton said the state Department of Commerce's Rapid Response Team has been notified by Roadway of the change of operations. Employment Security Commission personnel hope to meet with employees soon to explain unemployment insurance benefits, other services and what they can expect in the job market here.\nThe job situation is not as good as it could be, he said.\n\"I hope we will see a better 2006 than 2005,\" Pendleton said.\"\nReprinted from The Greenville News, January 6, 2006\n/jmunro [at] greenvillenews.com\">jmunro [at] greenvillenews.com",

The Alford plea acknowledged that prosecutors had enough evidence to convict him in the assault on DeAndre Harris, a former special education instructional assistant.\nDuring Friday\u2019s hearing, prosecutors told Judge Richard E. Moore that Davis was seen on video whacking Harris on the head with a wooden stick \u2014 a \u201ctire thumper.\u201d The injury gave Harris such a large laceration on his head that it required eight staples.\nDavis, through his attorney, told The Washington Post after the hearing that he has renounced white nationalism.\nYeah, see that is just bullshit.\nThis guy \u201crenounced\u201d white nationalism in the hopes of getting a lighter sentence.\nOnce he gets to prison I imagine he will have \u201cWhite Power\u201d and a swastika tattooed on his chest and probably shave his head.\nOf the three guys who were sentenced before him, one got eight years, one got six, and one got four.\nDavis is expected to get the lightest sentence because he only struck Harris one time, instead of multiple times.\nThe only reason these four were even arrested is that internet sleuths found the video of the attack and managed to identify the suspects.\nIf not for them these assholes would likely have walked free, and continued attending rallies and attacking black people indefinitely.\nAlso, keep in mind that these are the thugs that Donald Trump suggested were probably among the \u201cgood people on both sides.\u201d\n1stNation/BLM February 10, 2019 at 7:33 am\t- Reply\nhttps://www.rawstory.com/2019/02/internet-lights-trump-african-americans-angry-tweet-dont-speak-us-ever/\ntinydsjt tweet>African Americans are very angry at the double standard on full display in Virginia!\nReply >\u201cDon\u2019t speak for us.

        "raw_content": "When Typhoon Ketsana (Philippine Name: Ondoy)hit the Philippines in September 26, 2009, the town of Cainta was instantly transformed into a sea of muddy water. While we were part of the few Cainta residents who were spared from the floods, my sister and parents were not. Proof of it is the damage that the typhoon had done to my parents' SUV.\nMy parents own a Toyota Hilux Surf that we fondly call Reeboy because its plate number starts with REE. It was a second-hand unit bought after my mother's retirement in 2006. After my father's stroke, the SUV was left to my sister and brother-in-law's care. Unfortunately, they live in Vista Verde which is one of the most badly hit areas in Cainta. The waters there rose to up to as high as 5 feet. If you look closely at the photo, you will see the muddy line on the carseat's headrests. This is how high the water has been that day considering that the garage is one foot above the street level.\nThis Holy Week, we will be missing Reeboy's company in our annual Visita Iglesia. The alternator still has to be fixed as well as its airconditioning unit. We are hoping that we'll be given more financial blessings for the repairs. It may not be as expensive as an rv repair job but we also have other priorities to take care of. Nevertheless, we are still thanking God every day that no one in our family was harmed by the flood. Material things are replaceable anyway.",

However, the figures emphasise the problems facing the PPF, which is set to become one of the biggest schemes in the UK in the coming years.\n\"We have been calling on the PPF and the Government to act now to prevent this situation from getting worse as corporate failures continue. The fairest solution would be for the PPF to reduce the rate at which it pays out benefits to a level that will be affordable in the long term, otherwise the Government will need to step in and underwrite the PPF\u2019s commitments.\"",

        "title": "Breast Biopsy | What is the standard breast biopsy procedure?",
        "raw_content": "The Breast Site > Breast Cancer > Breast Cancer Detection > Breast Biopsy\nWhat is the standard breast biopsy procedure?\nA breast biopsy, also known as a breast cancer biopsy, is a medical procedure in which a portion of the breast tissue, usually a lump or other growth under the skin, is removed and examined by a medical pathologist. The goal is to determine whether the tissue is benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous).\nBreast biopsies can be performed in a number of different settings, including doctors' offices, outpatient facilities and hospitals. Where the procedure is performed is typically determined by the size and location of the growth, as well as the health of the patient. Unless the patient is in poor health, there is rarely a need to remain in hospital overnight following a breast biopsy.\nTypes of Breast Biopsy\nThe typical breast biopsy procedure varies slightly depending on the size and location of the growth. The four most common types of breast biopsy are the open excisional biopsy, needle aspiration, axillary node dissection and sentinel node dissection.\nAn open excisional biopsy is generally performed under local anesthesia and involves making a small incision near the lump and removing either a portion of the lump tissue or, if the lump is small, the entire thing. The incision is then stitched up by the doctor. The procedure takes about an hour and it can take a few weeks for the patient to fully heal.\nNeedle aspiration is the name given to the process of removing breast lump tissue with a needle. Since no incision is required, this procedure causes no scarring and has a quicker recovery period than the open excisional method. This method is sometimes called a stereotactic breast biopsy, since three-dimensional imaging technology is sometimes used to locate the breast tumor and position the needle. In cases where ultrasound technology is used in place of other imaging technology, the procedure is called an ultrasound-guided breast biopsy.\nAn axillary node dissection is performed if it is suspected that cancer has spread beyond the breast tissue. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and involves making an incision under the arm and removing a group of 10 to 20 lymph nodes.\nA sentinel node biopsy is similar to an axillary node biopsy, except it's less invasive and carries less risk of infection because only a single lymph node is removed. During a sentinel node biopsy procedure, the patient is injected with dye or a radioactive tracer in the area around the tumor. This dye/tracer fluid is then tracked as it makes its way away from the tumor to the nearest lymph node, which is then removed via a small incision. Due to its proximity to the tumor, the nearest lymph node is thought to be most likely to contain malignant cells.\nBreast Biopsy Results\nFor simple biopsy procedures, such as those involving the extraction of breast tissue via syringe, the results can be available as soon as the next day and certainly within a week. In cases where more complex tests must be performed, the results may not be available until a few weeks after the date of the tissue extraction. Your physician will be able to provide you with a timetable for your results before the procedure is performed.",

        "raw_content": "Be Confident In Christ\n\u201cI am self-sufficient in Christ\u2019s sufficiency.\u201d Php 4:13 AMP\nThe Bible says, \u201cBlessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him\u201d (Jer 17:7 NIV). To succeed at whatever God calls you to do, you must learn to be confident\u2014not self-confident, but confident in Christ. Paul was brilliant, but he said, \u201cI am self-sufficient in Christ\u2019s sufficiency.\u201d Jesus said, \u201cWithout Me you can do nothing\u201d (Jn 15:5 NKJV). It seems to take forever to learn this truth. Much of our frustration comes from misplaced confidence. Paul says, \u201cPut no confidence in the flesh\u201d (Php 3:3 NIV). Now, he wasn\u2019t saying you aren\u2019t supposed to trust anyone. He was saying if you give others or yourself the trust that belongs to God alone, you won\u2019t succeed. He won\u2019t let you! To succeed at anything you must have confidence, but it must be confidence in God. You must believe that He wants you to succeed. You may fail on your way to success, but if you trust God, He will take your mistakes and cause them to work out for your good (See Ro 8:28). Sometimes our confidence is shaken when trials come, especially if they\u2019re lengthy. When this happens you must do what David did: He \u201cencouraged and strengthened himself in the Lord\u201d (1Sa 30:6 AMP). When David had no one else to believe in him, he believed in himself. He also believed in God\u2019s ability to work through him. One Bible teacher says, \u201cThe Lord told me that if I didn\u2019t believe in myself, I really didn\u2019t believe in Him. He said, \u2018I am in you, but I can only do through you, what you believe Me for.\u2019\u201d Think about it.",

        "raw_content": "It was not easy, but Norman Osborn managed to procure all five necessary fragments to perform the ritual of the Gathering of Five. He employed a variety strategies to reach this goal, from blackmail to straight up theft and even exploiting Spider-Man to fetch one of the shards. A quick recap of the events from the Gathering of Five story arc, or more specifically how Norman got all five of the necessary fragments, is listed below:\nFirst Fragment -- Hamilton Cromwell/Technomancers' possession, stolen by Override\nSecond Fragment -- Morris Maxwell's possession, he plans on participating in the ritual\nThird Fragment -- Osborn convinces Madame Web the ritual will bring her eternal youth, she solicits Spider-Man to get the piece\nFourth Fragment -- the daughter of Osborn's cohort \"Franklin\" has brought the piece to Norman despite the fact that \"Franklin\" himself had bailed out\nThe Centerpiece (aka the Spindle) \u2013 Norman has had this in his possession for an unknown period of time, he may have gotten through his contacts within the Scriers\nThe Final Chapter story arc is the second of two back-to-back crossover events that featured the Gathering of Five plot line. The arc brought about the finales of the first volumes of the major Spider-Man titles (Amazing, Spectacular, and Peter Parker Spider-Man), signaling a change in the status quo for the web-swinger. Norman's incessant torture of Peter continued throughout this arc, reaching a boiling point that brings about massive changes to both of their lives.\nThe first story within the Final Chapter arc is featured in Amazing Spider-Man #441, and it was immediately revealed that is was Franklin's daughter, Martha or \"Mattie\", that decided to participate in the ritual. She was first introduced in Spectacular Spider-Man #262, but her identity was left ambiguous. The five participants (Osborn, Herd, Maxwell, Madame Web, and Mattie Franklin) are now gathered at the headquarters of Osborn Industries, garbed in robes necessary to perform the arcane ritual. Meanwhile, Alison Mongrain is still struggling to track down Peter Parker to deliver a message to him. She arrives with Joe Robertson at the Parker house and Peter is not there, and just as they arrive they are attacked once again by the Molten Man. When the Molten Man crashes up through the street, a rock hits Mongrain, mortally injuring her. The Molten Man's brainwashing appears to wear off as he slows in his attack and recalls how someone has tampered with his brain.\nIn a flashback sequence, Osborn forcibly placed an implant inside Raxton's brain that caused him to irreversibly chase after his target, Alison Mongrain. Osborn pointed out that the pain the device caused for the Molten Man would impel him to destroy the source of the pain (ie, Alison Mongrain).\nMongrain quickly deduced that the locket Osborn had given her months ago must have been the tracking device he was using to follow her, the Molten Man destroyed the locket, which ceased his pain. MJ was inside the house when the ruckus had broke out, she then ran out to the street and found Mongrain, Robertson and Raxton amidst the chaos. Mongrain used her last gasp to inform MJ that May is still alive, MJ's first inclination was disbelief. Meanwhile, back at Osborn Industry's headquarters the ritual was about to begin. As the members gather the fragments together, the \"gifts\" appear to be distributed as follows: Madame Web--Death, Martha--Knowlegde, Herd --Immortality, Maxwell--Insanity, and Osborn--Power. Although we shall soon see that that initial analysis was not entirely accurate.\nAt the story's conclusion, MJ tells Peter the news she received from Mongrain...that May is alive and Norman is holding her at his hunting lodge in upstate New York. Peter decides, despite the potential trap by Osborn, that he has to pursue this to see if Mongrain was telling the truth.\nThe story continued in Peter Parker Spider-Man #97 where Norman Osborn donned his revamped Green Goblin costume. Osborn even allowed some of his associates (it is not obvious whether or not these are Scriers since they are wearing civilian clothes) to assist him with his costume. After receiving their latest update on the Mongrain situation, Norman killed them with pumpkin bombs as he flew off on his glider. After battling through some genetically altered guard dogs and mobile trees, Spider-Man confronted the Green Goblin at the upstate lodge. When Spider-Man asked about his daughter May, the Goblin flipped Spidey a book. Osborn told Peter about one potential plan that he did not get to use against his wall-crawling adversary. Apparently Norman had planted a diary in his office around the time Spider-Man broke in and beat him initiating the whole Identity Crisis saga (seen in Spectacular Spider-Man #250). Spider-Man was supposed to use the diary as evidence that Norman was the Green Goblin and then turn the book into authorities. At that point the writing was supposed to change and reveal that Norman was not the Goblin but rather a \"concerned citizen\" and that Peter Parker was Spider-Man. The diary would have explained further that Peter had poisoned his Aunt May after she had learned his identity (how would Norman have been able to prove that??). This would out Peter as Spider-Man and frame him for murder, fortunately for Peter he never found that book. The two then begin to trade blows back and forth, both swearing that this is their final confrontation. The Goblin taunted Spider-Man with the certainty of the web-slingers death from his newfound god-like power, an endowment from courtesy of the Gathering of Five. Eventually the fight made its way to Osborn's lodge where Peter surprisingly uncovered the \"May\" Mongrain was referring to was not his daughter, but rather his Aunt May!\nThe third installment of the Final Chapter was featured in Spectacular Spider-Man #263, the final issue of the first volume of the Spectacular title. As Spider-Man reeled from the fact that he is now face-to-face with his supposedly dead Aunt (Aunt May died back in Amazing Spider-Man #400). But, Spidey didn't buy into the Goblin's mind game and was not convinced that this woman was his aunt. At first the Goblin did not want Spider-Man to leave with this woman, but then changed his mind saying that he is a \"compassionate deity\" and that Parker deserved to be reunited with his family. Spider-Man immediately took the woman to Reed Richards (aka Mr. Fantastic) to determine whether or not the Goblin's claims were accurate. Reed confirmed that she was a real human, not a clone or a doppelganger, but he could not confirm whether or not she was his actual aunt until he had a DNA sample that had not been tampered. Peter then found an old science experiment in the attic of the Parker house and retrieved a blood sample he had taken from May when he was a kid. After bringing the sample back to Richards, the scientist confirmed the Goblin's claims that the woman is indeed May Parker. He also informed Peter that there is a small cylindrical device implanted at the base of her brain and if it was not removed soon her heart would shut down and she would die.\nSpidey then left the Baxter Building in a fury and confronted Osborn at his corporate headquarters to uncover the full extent of Norman's nefarious plot. Norman, now convinced that he is a god, found no qualms with revealing his entire plan to Peter. He then showed Spidey a group of scientists working in a lab near his office, with a click of a button on his belt, a gas was released that deteriorated the body's of the scientists. Osborn told Peter that they are not dead, but rather reduced to their component DNA structure and that he will \"reform them in to [his] own image to do [his] bidding\".\nSpider-Man and the Green Goblin battle once again, with the Goblin pummeling the outmatched hero. As the Goblin is carried Spidey on his glider through the city, he explained to him that the object at the base of May's skull is the trigger to set off the bomb's chain reaction that would wreak havoc across the globe. Osborn further expounded that it was he that was able to fool Peter into thinking that his Aunt May had died months ago. According to Osborn, he hired an actress to mimic May's bodily proportions, facial expressions, mannerisms, and voice inflections, unfortunately for the actress this would be her final role. The Goblin eventually dragged Peter to the Daily Bugle where he unmasked the unconscious wall-crawler publicly. Some of the people that witnessed the unmasking included his colleagues Betty Brant, Ben Urich, and J. Jonah Jameson. Had the Green Goblin finally achieved one of his most precious goals, the defeat of Spider-Man?\nThe story arc concluded in Peter Parker Spider-Man #98, where it was revealed that the Goblin did not defeat Spider-Man, rather it was the opposite that was true. Norman had been in such delusional state that he was convinced that the he was pummeling Spidey, but he was wrong. Instead he found himself webbed up and rambling as the authorities prepared to take him into custody. When a stray pumpkin bomb went off near the base of the Daily Bugle, Spider-Man managed to save the innocent civilians by supporting the building with his own strength and then employing some webbing as foundation. Spidey then hastily returned to the Fantastic Four building to stop Reed Richards from removing the implant from May's skull, because Osborn's claim (about May being the 'trigger') could possibly be true. Richards complied and found an alternate way to neutralize the device without removing it, saving May's life in the process. Soon after, Peter told MJ that he was through being Spider-Man because it only brought trouble into his life. Peter even went as far as to burn his costume. Elsewhere, while Osborn was ranting in a padded room that he had \"killed Spider-Man\", a group of doctors and guards arrived to unmask him. After they did so, they exclaimed, \"Omigod, his face! He\u2026\" But before what they saw was revealed to the reader, a group of Scriers arrived and absconded with Norman, claiming that, \"Norman Osborn belongs to the Scriers!\"\nNorman's plan to achieve god-like power through this arcane ritual failed, instead he was given only the gift of madness. The remaining gifts from the ceremony were as follows: Martha Franklin received power, Madame Web received immortality, Morris Maxwell received knowledge, and Greg Herd received death. A more detailed look at the ramifications of the Gathering can be found in the following section. From the moment Norman returned to \"legitimacy\" in Spectacular Spider-Man #250, he had relentlessly tormented Peter using subtle and not-so-subtle tactics. It appeared as though Peter was granted a temporary reprieve from Osborn's meddling (temporary being the operative word).\nAn interesting potential footnote to this story is found in Spider-Girl (V2) #2 in which Anya Corazon (aka Arana) was consoled by her friend Rocky who shared the story of her mother's death. Rocky's mother was a bike messenger in New York City and she became an innocent victim during a skirmish between Spider-Man and the Green Goblin as they battled high above the city streets. During the ruckus, pumpkin bombs fell to the ground and although Rocky's mom was able to save a small child and her mother, she was unable to save herself. She died instantly and Rocky described the event as having occurred 'three years ago' from the present time in Spider-Girl (V2) #2. The timeline best fit for a public battle between Spider-Man and the Green Goblin that had occurred 'three years prior' would most likely be the one that occurred at the conclusion to the Final Chapter arc. Although it should be mentioned that is pure speculation.\nAll five willing participants for the Gathering of Five ritual meet at Osborn's corporate headquarters, as seen in Amazing Spider-Man #441\nThe Molten Man recalls Norman Osborn placing a device in his brain that forces him to attack and kill Alison Mongrain, as seen in Amazing Spider-Man #441\nMongrain uses her last living breath to tell MJ the message that was intended for Peter, as seen in Amazing Spider-Man #441\nMJ and Peter argue over how to handle Mongrain's message, as seen in Amazing Spider-Man #441\nThe Goblin informs Spider-Man of the diary that Spidey was 'supposed' to recover, as seen in Peter Parker Spider-Man #97\nSpider-Man brings Aunt May to the Fantastic Four to see if she truly is his aunt, as seen in Spectacular Spider-Man #263\nWhat the Green Goblin believes to have occurred, as seen in Spectacular Spider-Man #263\nWhat actually happened, and that is Spider-Man defeating the Goblin outside the Daily Bugle, as seen in Peter Parker Spider-Man #98\nGoblin is taken away by the police while rambling mindlessly to himself, as seen in Peter Parker Spider-Man #98\nTop: Norman is escorted away by loyal Scriers just after he is unmasked, both panels are seen in Peter Parker Spider-Man #98\nBottom: A flashback sequence later depicts the events that evening, Norman's face appeared to be normal...for him, as seen in Revenge of the Green Goblin #1\nA battle between the Green Goblin and Spider-Man inadvertently claims the life of Anya Corazon's friend's mother, as seen in Spider-Girl (V2) #2",

        "raw_content": "Life In The Tenements Discussed 1898\nAlfred T. White, Former Commissioner of City Works, delivered an interesting address on \"Tenement House Life, Legislation and Outlook,\" at the annual meeting of the All Souls' Universalist Women's League, held in the parlor of All Souls' Church, South Tenth street, yesterday afternoon. In the absence of Mrs. J. Coleman Adams, who was ill, Mrs. S. McVey presided.\nMr. White began by saying that tenement house life was not ideal and never could be, because the ideal was that every man should live in his own home, and, if possible, in a home owned by him. Although all people hoped that tenements might some day be done away with, still they could not be abolished in the immediate future and the best thing for the present was to consider whether they could not be improved. There was a movement in France, which a friend of his was studying, which had for its object the transmission of electrical power long distances with the view of scattering population over greater areas, and that movement might possibly lead to the undoing of the densely populated centers of American cities where factories were located. Much progress, however, had been made at home during the past twenty-five years. it was a reproach to this country that the subject had been delayed so long. It had been taken up in England in 1840 although not successfully studied until 1850.\nThe first designedly constructed tenement house erected in this country was located in Cherry street, Manhattan, in 1838. By the close of the war half of the population of the neighboring borough, as well as one-fifth of that in Brooklyn, were living in what the law recognized as tenements houses occupied by over three families. Since the close of the war three laws had been enacted looking to the improvement of the tenement houses. The first, in 1867, provided that no tenement should cover more than 90 per cent. of the lot on which it was built and for transom windows affording interior light, if not on the outside; a second in 1876, provided that not more than 60 per cent of a tenement lot should be built upon, while in 1894 that admirable commission, with Mr. Gilder as chairman, was appointed which resulted in the enactment of laws providing that in houses of five stories the staircases should be fire proof, in three stories of a material that was not easily susceptible to the ravages of fire, and containing another provision which was entirely new to this country which empowered the Board of Health to order the demolition of unsanitary buildings. In England public sentiment in all large cities had pushed the reform right ahead. Why not in America? the speaker asked. In the matter of legislation, we had almost caught up with England, but in the protection of the new reformed tenement and in the care of the present good tenements, we were behind.\nMiss A.M. Locke described the playground experiment tried in the City Park of this borough last summer. She said that its future success would depend on circumstances. The Rev. Dr. Adams, replying to Mr. White, as to the lack of interest in improved dwellings in this country, said that the general public would have to be educated up to it.\nThese officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Mrs. MacVey: vice president, Miss Mary C. Hawley; secretary, Mrs. G. H. Austin; treasurer, Mrs. White; musical director, Mrs. G.H. Hotchkiss; executive committee, Mrs. Alfred Metcalfe, Mrs. Richard Hill and Mrs. J. Coleman Adams.\nArticle Name: Life In The Tenements Discussed 1898\nSource: The Brooklyn Eagle April 6, 1898",

        "raw_content": "Are Page 3 models really doing such a terrible thing?\nHannah Bennett at Leeds Trinity & All Saints (Accredited College of ...\nFemale solidarity is a nice idea, but there\u2019s always going to be women who see no problem in getting their boobs out and there\u2019s always going to be women who find it absolutely appalling and objectifying. And if you\u2019ve heard Lily Allen\u2019s \u2018Hard Out Here\u2019, it doesn\u2019t take a intellect to figure out what category of women she falls into - and it probably wouldn\u2019t be the same category you\u2019d find Rihanna or Miley Cyrus in.\nBut after 40 years of the big boobs of The Sun\u2019s third page, should these \u2018No More Page 3\u2019 campaign people just button it now? Will the world ever come to a united agreement that Page 3 is outdated and sexist and has to go? I doubt it.\nThe campaigners of No More Page 3 are absolutely right - boobs are not news! But it\u2019s clear a picture of a naked young lady is not designed to create news or tell a story; it\u2019s there to grab the attention of people who ordinarily wouldn\u2019t bother spending money on a boring newspaper full of boring political stories. So is it not evident that The Sun is just - in a very obvious way - trying to make the newspaper have a bit of something for everyone? And it\u2019s worked! The Sun is one of the most successful newspapers going, so it\u2019s not surprisingly the editors of The Sun are not so keen on the idea of getting rid of Page 3.\nWe now live in a world where women can be lawyers, can vote, can drive, can do anything a bloke can do, so personally I don\u2019t feel that Page 3 is the oracle of all evil and is objectifying women. People objectify people, and if a man sees a picture of a naked lady and takes from that that women are objects in the world then that\u2019s a narrow minded personal problem of their own. The process of Page 3 modelling is one of complete control. All women who have been photographed for Page 3 know exactly what they signed up for and are not forced.\nHowever, what I do see in favour of the No More Page 3 campaign, is that Page 3 pictures could present - for some more vulnerable young readers - that this is how a woman should look, and is only celebrating one type of female body. As much as I have no problem with Page 3, I do think it is wrong that there is no variation in body types, be that size 6 or size 16, A cup or a DD cup - they should all be there celebrating their bodies. It is this particular aspect that may lower a female reader\u2019s self-esteem, that can make us women hate the body we were given.\nIt\u2019s women like Alicia Douvall who recently said on Celebrity Big Brother that she\u2019d \u2018rather be dead than not have tits\u2019 that shows what this exaggerated image of a perfect body can do to a woman. It\u2019s why women are getting boob job after boob job and getting their makeup tattooed on their face.\nBut is that the problem with Page 3? Is the only reason women go into this kind of modelling because they think just because they have large boobs and a skinny waist that\u2019s all they\u2019re good at? That may be truly how some women out there feel, and it\u2019s unfortunate and sad that they feel that way. But for others, a career like that is fuelled by body confidence and just raw love to model. So why shouldn\u2019t we let them do what they love?\nIf you want to get your clothes off for a living, do it! And if you don\u2019t, then don\u2019t. It is a free world, and the women that get their kit off for a living shouldn\u2019t be made to feel they\u2019re doing something wrong.\nAnd anyway, if The Sun thought putting a stark naked guy on Page 3 would get more readers, I bet they\u2019d certainly would have done that 40 years ago too.\nPictured: former Page 3 model Jodie Marsh\nTupac's crew smoke his ashes\nA student bartenders' guide to swifter service\nCensoring student media\nMyth-busting British migration claims\nDating hell: The world's worst first dates",

        "title": "Interview: Matt Le Blanc \u2013 The National Student",
        "raw_content": "After Friends ended in 2004, Matt starred in the spin-off Joey, which was moved from New York to Hollywood, from 2004 to 2006. The weight of expectation was driven home during the presentations to advertisers before the first season when Joey was billed as the new Friends and Matt had to stand on stage in front of an enormous poster of himself: \"I thought, 'those are big shoes to fill \u2013 six pairs of shoes.'\"\nIt was a somewhat bruising experience, after which he decided to take a sabbatical, spending time with his young daughter and avoiding the Hollywood celebrity scene. He was regularly sent scripts, but he had not been interested in returning to work \u2013 until David and Jeffrey took him out for lunch and explained the premise for Episodes.\nHe was instantly hooked. Matt explains: \"I had been burnt out, 12 years playing the same guy. But when they told me the idea behind the show I thought 'That's probably going to be good \u2013 yeah, get off the couch!' In the beginning I was a little afraid of being exposed as the scripts hadn't been written yet \u2013 I was pretty nervous about what they might be making fun of.\"\nMatt has proved right from the start, however, that he's not afraid of making himself the punchline of the gag. In the taster trail put out by Showtime before filming began, the real LeBlanc has to audition for the chance to play himself: \"How could I not get it?\" a bewildered Matt asks his agent. \"Well, they're seeing some really good people,\" the agent replies. After his audition an aide asks the casting director: \"What do you think?\" The director shrugs: \"I think we've got better.\"\nHis portrayal of Joey still affects the way people respond to him: \"People will come up to me and speak slowly, or they'll ask me if I'm OK because I'm a lot more low-key and subdued than Joey Tribbiani was. He was very high energy, high-key. He talked loudly. But I'm not really like that. I had a lot of coffee when we were shooting Friends.\"\nHe continues: \"I didn't want the character to be too much like me because frankly it wouldn't be very interesting. He is more Matt LeBlanc than Matt LeBlanc, just as the Larry David on Curb Your Enthusiasm is some evil twin approximation of the real one.\n\"In many respects it's not autobiographical at all, although sometimes it seems to get a little close. For example, there's a scene where I talk about my need to sabotage my own happiness, and another where I admit that I have an inability to appreciate the consequences of my actions. Sometimes I think 'Hmmm \u2013 that must be another made-up thing!' but in truth I am learning a lot about myself.\n\"Episodes takes the whole Joey persona that I have and meets it head on. It's really liberating. When you get pigeonholed as one character, people tend to think 'That's all he can do.' In Episodes the network insists that the character stick to type and play a hockey coach. It's a kind of metaphor about the sacrifices you make, the compromises to your art when the idea of fame and success are introduced and how things get watered down.\"\nHe found the whole experience very collaborative from the outset: \"David and Jeffrey spent every day on set, watching proceedings on monitors side by side with James Griffiths the director and Jimmy the producer. In a happy divergence from the world they are describing, they have had little creative interference from the broadcasters. We had a great time and it shows. To work with such great material really is a blessing. It doesn't come around that often. The scripts are really tight, there's great economy in the writing, each joke is generally an integral part of the story or the character development.\"\nHe continues: \"The fictional Matt LeBlanc is a little more damaged emotionally than I am. He has two sons, whom he clearly adores, and is going through a nasty divorce.\"\nMatt is also divorced (from model Melissa McKnight whom he married in 2003 and divorced three years later) but he has a daughter, now six years old.\nThe fictional Matt LeBlanc collects fine art, has a jet (\"I wish I had a jet!\") and is incredibly pleased about his big house and flash car.\n\"The Matt LeBlanc in the show uses the fact that people assume I'm dumb because I played the dumb guy in Friends to manipulate situations to his advantage. He manipulates the writers so that the show is more the way he wants it to be. Not that he's right, but it exposes his insecurities about his ability.\"\nMatt has himself experienced the occasional brutality of the network: \"The industry is based around people's dreams and aspirations. Network television can be a fair weather friend. If the ratings dip slightly, the phone stops ringing pretty instantly. Obviously a lot of those experiences are exaggerated in the script for the sake of comedy, presented as the worst case scenario, but it's really funny, cleverly executed, a nice balance of heart and funny.\"\nHe continues: \"Episodes is an ensemble piece, told through the eyes of Sean and Beverly. A wedge is driven between them when they arrive in LA. It puts a strain on their marriage, their creativity within the show and it all quickly spirals out of control. And that wedge just happens to be me! Sean and I get along great, but Beverly and I do not get along. I don't think I've seen a show with that dynamic before; it's a really fresh idea. Sure, there have been shows about a show before, but you don't see much of the 'show' here.\"\nHe adds: \"There are so many things about Hollywood that I think are taken for granted in America. The way they are seen through fresh eyes gives you the chance to see how weird certain things are \u2013 the house, the fakeness, the money that's involved when you get to network level, and the wastefulness.\"\nHe continues: \"Making Episodes was different in many ways. This is quite different from filming a multi-camera sitcom in front of an audience. Making Friends was like being in a play. The audience is in the scene with you and you have to wait for the laughter to die down before you deliver your next line. But this is much more real and grounded in reality. A sitcom is broad and big, and this isn't like that. With Friends you rehearse all week and shoot on Friday nights in front of an audience.\"\nHe laughs: \"Not having a live studio audience took some getting used to. I hadn't worked for four years, so to get back in front of the camera, say a punch-line and not have a huge audience react to that took some getting used to!\"\nBut on occasion he could hear David and Jeffrey laughing next to the monitors, forgetting that they could be heard on set: \"They had to be reminded not to laugh because absolutely everything gets picked up by the mics \u2013 it took them a little time to get used to as well!\"\nMatt concludes: \"Celebrity is a funny thing. People want to know what is the magic behind it, what makes it work. You see this polished, finished product and you want to peek behind the fa\u00e7ade, to see people's faults, to see the funny in that. There is a lot of upbeat stuff in Episodes but there are also dark moments.\"\nHe admits that he will probably never truly shake off the ghost of Joey Tribianni. Not that he appears to mind. Strangers call him Joey more than they call him Matt and seem excited to see him: \"I look on it as a compliment. And at the end of the day, it beats digging holes!\"\nInterview: The Virgins\nWrapping up Semester 1 on Erasmus",

        "raw_content": "August 6, 2015 Michael Appel #TBT, Features, Phillies 2\nJuly 2, 1993. The date alone won\u2019t ring a bell in the minds of most Phillies fans. But, once one hears what happened on this date, the stories will start to flow from all those who were around to witness it. It was one of the most surreal events in Philadelphia Sports history. July 2, 1993 was the day that closer Mitch Williams won a game against the San Diego Padres in the bottom of the tenth inning in the second game of a double-header at 4:40 in the morning.\nThat\u2019s right, you read that correctly. At 4:40 IN THE MORNING!!!. The Phillies were set to take on the San Diego Padres in a twilight double-header that was set to start at 4:05 PM. It started out as a sunny Saturday afternoon in July. That changed quickly though as at around the third or fourth inning in Game 1, the skies darkened and the rains started. And they were unrelenting. It was one torrential downpour after another punctuated with thunder and lightening and extremely high winds. What started out as a great day to play two turned in to one of the most miserable days you could ever imagine.\nIt was the Padres last visit to Philadelphia so all parties involved wanted to do everything possible to get the games in. The last thing either team needed was to have to play a make up game sometime later in the year. So even though game one of the double-header was delayed several times by heavy rains, everyone involved persevered and a game that started at 4:05 in the afternoon finally ended at 1 o\u2019clock in the morning.\nGame 2 was set to start at 1:30 AM. For those of you who have spent some time in the bar and had a drink or thirty there, you know this is only a half our before the bars close. When Game 1 ended, there were maybe 500 people left in Veterans Stadium. An amazing phenomenon happened as the bars in the Philadelphia area started to close. Instead of going home after a night at the bar, people decided to head down to the Vet and catch the second game of the doubleheader. With it being so late, people were able to just walk right in to the game for free. As Game 2 wore on, more and more people showed up at the Vet to catch some free baseball.\nThe Philles lost Game 1 of the double-header and Game 2 was a tight affair that saw the Philles use up all their bench players. So in a tie game with a chance to win it, Phillies manager Jim Fregosi had no choice but to let Mitch Williams bat in the bottom of the 10th inning. Williams wasn\u2019t exactly known for his hitting prowess. He is a .188 hitter for his career and didn\u2019t have one at bat in the 1993 season. Against all odds, Williams delivered the game winning hit as the clock struck 4:40 in the morning to win it. And my brother and I were there to see all of it\u2026 sort of.\nMy brother and I always loved to go to a double-header. What could beat seeing two games for the price of one? Unlike most of the people who witnessed Williams game winning hit, we were there right from the get go. We were there right from the opening pitch at 4:05 in the afternoon. We sat in the Vet for nine hours through all the rain delays until game one finally ended at 1 AM. After Game 1 ended, we were all ready to catch Game 2 but, there was a man sitting behind us who said, \u201cWell, that\u2019s it. You\u2019re not allowed to start a game in MLB after 1 AM\u201d. I assumed this guy knew what he was talking about and turned to my brother Matt and said, \u201cI guess we should go then.\u201d My brother said to me, \u201cI don\u2019t know Mike. It doesn\u2019t look like anyone is going anywhere.\u201d\nMy brother and I never leave sporting events before they are completed. We had gone to Phillies games before and sat through rain delays that lasted for hours on end but always stayed until the end. If there was going to be another game played that night, we were going to stay. But, when I heard the guy behind us say MLB won\u2019t start a game after 1 AM, I decided to get up and leave. My brother kept insisting there was going to be another game played but I wouldn\u2019t listen.\nWhen we arrived home at around two thirty in the morning, I just happened to turn on my clock radio for some reason and heard Harry Kalas and Richie Ashburn talking on the radio. I thought to myself \u201cThat\u2019s odd. They don\u2019t normally replay Phillies games on the radio.\u201d And with that I hear Harry say, \u201cWell Whitey, it\u2019s not often you find yourself at the ballpark at 2:30 in the morning.\u201d I couldn\u2019t believe it. There was another game to be played and we left. And it turned out to be one of the most memorable games in Phillies history. I walked in to my brother\u2019s room and said,\u201dYou\u2019re not going to believe this, the Phillies are still playing.\u201d He let me have it and rightfully so. \u201cSee!!! I told you we should never have left!!!\u201d What are the odds that in a stadium that held 65,000 people where there were only around 500 people left in it, that we would wind up in front of someone, let alone someone who said that MLB won\u2019t start a game after 1 in the morning? And why did I listen to him??? My brother and I missed one of the greatest games in Phillies history as a result of it. I kick myself every time I hear someone tell stories about that night. We gutted it out through all the tough stuff and didn\u2019t get to see one of the most epic games in Phillies history. I should have listened to my brother!!!! In this instance, little brother knew best.\nTony Wroten\u2019s Role In the 76ers\u2019 Long-Term Plan\nGreat story Mike and remember the game. I watched it on TV fell asleep around 11pm woke up for work saw last 20 minutes that included Mitch Williams win game. Amazing memory.

        "title": "Fast-Tracking Niger Delta Master Plan - :::...The Tide News Online:::...",
        "raw_content": "Home Opinion Fast-Tracking Niger Delta Master Plan\nFast-Tracking Niger Delta Master Plan\nWhen Europe was virtually on its knees at the end of the Second World War, it took the intervention of the United States of America, armed with a Marshall Plan, to revive the devastated economy of the continent. The positive rings of that initiative have continued to reverberate across the globe over the years. In Nigeria, the Federal Government took a cue and included the drawing up of a Master Plan in the Act setting up the Niger Delta Development Commission [NDDC]. It was meant to produce a comprehensive compass that would guide the orderly and rapid development of the region.\nTo actualise this mandate, the commission promptly engaged international experts to produce the highly acclaimed Niger Delta Regional Development Master Plan (NDRMP). The document, which took several years and huge resources to develop, has been globally applauded as one of the greatest achievements of the NDDC which facilitated the project. The overall objective is to fast-track the development of the region that produces over 90 per cent of the country\u2019s oil wealth.\nThe importance of this regional plan, aptly described as a roadmap to development, is better appreciated against the background of the abysmal performances of previous interventionists\u2019 agencies from the Niger Delta Development Board [NDDB] set up in 1961 to the Oil Minerals Producing Areas Development Commission [OMPADEC] inaugurated in 1992. It is no secret that one of the reasons those agencies failed to tackle the developmental challenges of the region was because of the absence of a comprehensive master plan.\nThe choice of GTZ International of Germany and Wilbahi Engineering Consortium of Nigeria as lead consultants that produced a world-class master plan was deliberate, as they have cognate pedigree. In addition, 30 sector consultants and various resource consultants were assembled to work on different aspects of the plan to further enhance its global competitiveness. The process was systematic and laborious as several workshops and seminars were organised with oil-bearing communities, local, state and federal governments, international donor agencies, oil companies, among others.\nThe Master Plan is structured in 3-5-year phases, namely: the foundation phase (2006-2010); the expansion phase (2011-2015); and the consolidation phase (2016-2020). It can be said to be the first integrated development plan driven by stakeholders\u2019 participation in Nigeria because it covers different sectors including health, education, transportation and agriculture, while its objectives embrace economic growth and infrastructural development.\nThe comprehensive work was approved and adopted by the Federal Government as a document that holds the key to the rapid development of the Niger Delta. The governors and other political leaders of the region were satisfied as they were part of the processes that produced the plan from the scratch. The then President Olusegun Obasanjo was excited and delighted on March 27, 2007, when it was officially launched. He said: \u201cIt is my abiding belief that we are launching the commencement of a voyage of hope that will sail the Niger Delta past a legacy of turbulence, neglect and poverty into an assured future as our nation\u2019s most peaceful, most prosperous and most ecologically regenerative region by 2020\u2033.\nThe administration of late President Umaru Musa Yar\u2019Adua, which succeeded Obasanjo, also agreed that the plan has the capacity of adequately addressing the development challenges of the Niger Delta. The commission has through its Partners for Sustainable Development [PSD] Forum brought all the stakeholders under one umbrella to aid the process of harmonising projects in the region as enunciated in the plan.\nIncidentally, the first official assignment of the present NDDC Managing Director, Mr. Chibuzor Ugwuoha was the attendance of a workshop by the PSD Forum in Port Harcourt. His remarks at that occasion underscored the importance he attached to partnership. He said: \u201cWe know that the task of developing the Niger Delta is enormous. We cannot do it individually but together we can do it.\u201d Ugwoha\u2019s emphasis on the PSD Forum as a platform for collaboration is in line with his desire to engender further buy-in and commitment of all stakeholders to the Master Plan. He said that since the Master Plan constitutes the template for tackling the developmental challenges of the Niger Delta, the commission needs to constantly engage stakeholders in implementing it.\nCurrently, the NDDC boss has been visiting the state governors in the region and using every opportunity to reiterate the importance of the partnership arrangements already worked out with them. The visits have become necessary at this time to rekindle the interest of some state governments and other key stakeholders to the Niger Delta project that seems to have dwindled over time. A lot of people are worried that the key stakeholders appear to have abandoned the implementation vehicle for only the NDDC to drive. This is unfortunate because the Master Plan is a property of all Niger Delta people.\nPerhaps, the setting up of the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs contributed to the loss of focus. At the onset, the mandate of the ministry was not very clear, and its interface with the NDDC was at best hazy. Even in terms of allocating funds for the critical needs of the Niger Delta, both the executive and the legislature appeared to treat the ministry and the commission as if they were eating from the same pot. In the 2008, the National Assembly approved a budget of N79 billion for the NDDC. In 2009, however, its budget was drastically reduced to N27 billion, while N50 billion was budgeted for the new ministry. Thus, both of them got the same amount that only the NDDC got a year earlier.\nIt, therefore, came as a big relief when President Goodluck Jonathan reassured Niger Deltans recently that the lofty plans captured in the Master Plan would be pursued with renewed vigor. He said: \u201cLet me assure you that I am irrevocably committed to the development of the Niger-Delta. We must develop the region to restore confidence and hope among our people and children. To this end, let me assure you that the Niger-Delta Master Plan for development is on course and we will assist the NDDC and all the state governments to faithfully implement it.\u201d\nThe Federal Government should match its words with action by going a step further to mobilise all the stakeholders to put their hands on the plough to get the plan moving at optimum speed. In 2008, there was an understanding that all the nine states budgets would be prepared to fit into the Master Plan, to ensure that they actually keyed into its implementation. It would, therefore, be good to ensure that the central government, states, local governments, oil companies and other stakeholders work in harmony to realise the lofty dreams inherent in the Master Plan. Every one of them should be allocated specific roles on which they can be held accountable.\nIt is encouraging that the state governors in the region are beginning to take keen interest in the affairs of the commission which drives the master plan process. Recently, the hitherto dormant Advisory Committee of the NDDC, which comprises the governors and the principal officers of the commission, sprang into life after many years of in-action. The advisory committee intervened in the internal challenges that have confronted the interventionist agency of late. The long expected meeting of that moderating body also deliberated on how to aggressively implement the master Plan.\nWith the governors now putting heads together with the NDDC management, there is hope that the Master Plan will now experience a new lease of life. The Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs should be mandated to play a key role in coordinating the activities of the various stakeholders. If the ministry does that, it will help to facilitate the smooth implementation of the Master Plan and consequently the development of the region. There should be some sense of urgency in its implementation knowing full well that the first five years of the 15-year plan, termed the foundation phase, is ending this year.\nMr. Agbu wrote from Port Harcourt.\nIfeatu Agbu\nPrevious articleShould Christians Be Involved In Govt Leadership?(1)\nNext articleStill On The Problem Of Malaria",

They can be purchased:\n\u2022 at better bars and neighborhood stores,\n\u2022 at Beverages and More stores statewide in California,\n\u2022 at finer specialty food chain stores such as Whole Foods, Mollie Stone\u2019s and Andronico\u2019s,\n\u2022 and soon, in the Sacramento/Tahoe area.\nWhy cans? \u201cQuite CAN-didly, that\u2019s the number one question we get around here,\u201d said Chief Hop Head and Brewmaster Shaun O\u2019Sullivan. So he and his co-founder, Nico Freccia, Chief Watermelon Officer, recently hosted an online press conference (a \u201cweBEERnar\u201d) with beer writers and bloggers to discuss the merits of cans: http://news.draftmag.com/2008/10/16/in-which-we-drink-craft-beer-from-a-can-while-participating-in-an-online-conference-call-about-said-beer/\nO\u2019Sullivan explained, \u201cCans are simply better for the beer\u2013they keep it fresher by protecting it from light, they are lined so they don\u2019t affect the flavor of the beer, and they fit the craft beer drinker\u2019s lifestyle by going places where glass just doesn\u2019t dare \u2013 like beaches, pools, boats, parks and golf courses.\u201d\nFreccia added, \u201cCans are also better for the environment. They use less energy to produce and transport, and they are recycled far more often than glass.\u201d\n21A\u2019s craft beers in a can have been well-received since being released in San Francisco this summer. According to O\u2019Sullivan, \u201cClearly the demand is there for this CAN-cept. Beer aficionados say they love how convenient and portable the new cans are. And as a brewer I can really appreciate how the cans keep the beer fresher.\u201d\nReferring to the weBEERnar, O\u2019Sullivan said, \u201cI think we created a few Can Evangelists with our CANvincing arguments.\u201d\nFreccia responded, \u201cActually, I think it was the free beer we sent them.\u201d\nWho the heck are these guys? Hey, we\u2019re Nico & Shaun, founders of 21st Amendment Brewery, located at 563 Second Street in San Francisco, Calif. More importantly, we live for great beer. In 1920, there were thousands of breweries across America making unique, hand-crafted beer. The passage of Prohibition wiped out this great culture. On December 5, 1933, the states ratified the 21st Amendment, ending 13 years of Prohibition in America. At the 21st Amendment Brewery, we celebrate the right to brew beer, the freedom to be innovative, and the obligation to have fun.\nNext articleThe Definitive Rod Stewart CD Available on November 18\nSud Savant: Founders \u2013 2011 Backwoods Bastard\nOktoberfest in September?

        "raw_content": "Oslo: One week later\nOSLO, NORWAY | Friday, July 22, 3:20 p.m. I had just gotten home and, as is my custom, was about to turn on the computer when I heard what I thought was a loud thunder clap so I thought I'd wait a little and started doing other things.\nAn hour later a person from work called to tell me there'd been a huge explosion down by the government buildings, asked if was I alright, to stay away from downtown, and not to leave home.\nSomeone's punctured a gas line I thought -- though that thought lasted only momentarily.\nThe moment I turned on the television I just froze -- the devastation in the areas mentioned looked like a war zone -- you've all seen the pictures by now. But then at 5 p.m. the media started to report a shooter dressed like a policeman out at Utoya (an island twenty miles outside Oslo) where the Young Labour Party was holding its annual summer camp.\nFocus was still on the downtown area but bit by bit the gravity of the situation out at Utoya was beginning to hit home. A madman was gunning young people down at the camp -- if they leapt into the water to swim the half a mile to the mainland, he'd continue to shoot, into the water. No images, no media thus far -- only radio reports. However, the world had begun to connect the two.\nI turned everything off at around 7 p.m., overly saturated with the beginnings of a huge tragedy in this little peaceful country and lay down to try to read a little. About an hour later I knew they had apprehended the shooter before I heard it on the radio as I have a hospital five blocks up the road equipped with a helipad. Helicopters were flying over my building (I'm on the top floor) one after the other, at times queued, waiting to land. I counted sixteen of them and then of course had to turn on the computer, the TV, and the radio once again. I listened until I could no more and went to sleep -- the count at the time being seven dead in Oslo and five dead at the island.\nI awoke on Saturday morning to stunning news -- 91 dead (now readjusted to 76 but with some still missing) and started my media observations all over again. Across from the south side of this little island is a camping area -- smaller but much like the one back home in Ayer's Cliff, Quebec -- and as this was the time for the Oslo summer exodus, lovers of long nights and light, the camp was full.\nWithout much consideration for themselves, these campers jumped into their small motorboats, row boats, inflatable boats and began to charge towards the island -- some being shot at both on the way there and on the way back. Their stories were heart wrenching -- having to leave people behind because boats were becoming overloaded, having to decide who could possibly be saved and who could not.\nSomewhere around 250 people were saved by the heroic effort of these campers who were only there to enjoy summer's sun with their families. All of this happened between 5 and 6 p.m. when the police arrived and began to second some of the campers' boats. The police and the campers continued however to work together like a well-oiled machine, the police doing police work and the campers taking hold of the kids, warming them up and bringing them to the hotel which had been emptied of guests for use of the children, families, crisis teams, etc. Because the Young Labour campers were from all over the country, and there were 650 to 700 of them, most communities in this country have been personally affected by this awful event in one way or another.\nRegardless of what you may read in the North American media, please know that all emergency services in this country were mobilized within moments. The police, fire personnel, medical staff, clerics from all religions, psychologists, counselors, and the ordinary guy on the street for that matter, were all outstanding and provided what people needed -- not just for the injured and for the families of the deceased but churches opened throughout the country, listening, hugging, handholding.\nThere are flowers everywhere -- on every street corner, in store windows, and in the hands of families walking down to pay their respects. Oslo streets have been eerily silent and at the same time, people have felt close -- more smiles, less rush.\nA good friend wrote to me and said \"I am again struck by the steadfastness and unshakeable civility of the Norwegian people. They, the people of your heritage, are an example to us all.\"\nNorway has come very together during this time. We've had memorial services, impromptu rose parades and concerts (200,000 in Oslo alone and that's in a city of under 500,00), flags at half mast today, one week later and condolences pouring in from a world that doesn't understand how this could have happened here.\nBut it did and by now, if we hadn't realized it before, we all know it can happen anywhere.",

        "raw_content": "Traveling in Style: Bring Some Luxury To Your Next Vacation!\nFor some people, there's nothing like taking a vacation that lets them get back to the earth and away from all of the conveniences of modern life. For these people, vacations like camping and hiking give them the kind of thrill that they simply can't get anywhere else. However, these kinds of vacations are certainly not for everyone. In fact, for a lot of people, they are the opposite of what you want out of a trip. For many other people, a vacation gives you a chance to live in your own little fantasy world for a while, away from the stress and frustrations that everyday life can bring. With that in mind, why not embrace a little bit of luxury on your next vacation? Here are a few things that you can do to make sure that you're always travelling in style!\nFor a lot of people, the worst part of taking a trip can be the travelling itself. Many people often wish that they could simply snap their fingers and arrive at their destination without having to deal with cramped flights or hot cars with kids yelling \"are we there yet?\" for five hours. However, what if it didn't need to be that way? What if instead of the travelling being a cause of stress, it was the perfect way for you to start feeling truly relaxed in preparation for your vacation? Why not, instead of cramming your family onto a commercial flight, spend a little extra on a private flight? Many private jet charters are more affordable than you might expect while allowing you to enjoy the kind of luxury that you'd think was only really available for millionaires and celebrities. When you\u2019re cruising at 30,000 feet with a glass of champagne in hand, you\u2019ll be glad you did.\nNothing ruins the excitement of a vacation faster than arriving at your accommodation and seeing that the place is utterly filthy. Whether it's noisy neighbours, damp, mould, or even pests, paying for cheap accommodation can often leave you feeling pretty unhappy. So why not go the extra mile and find somewhere that you can be sure is going to help you and your family feel as happy and relaxed as possible? Wherever you're planning on going, there are often plenty of luxury resorts that you can find, many of which have a lot of amazing facilities that are open to guests.\nIf you really want to forget all of your troubles and leave the stress of everyday life behind then, you need to go all inclusive. Rather than having to worry about the money that you're spending on food and drinks, paying a little extra when you book your vacation means that you no longer have to worry about it. Things like food and drinks are included in the cost of the vacation, and you'll often have things like days out and activities thrown in as well. It's a truly fantastic way to feel as though you've left your regular life behind, if only for a little while.\nSure, these things will probably end up costing you more than a standard vacation might, but as the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. If you really want to enjoy a luxury vacation, then it might be a good idea to start saving for it!\nDestination, Japan, Travel Tips and ideas\nExperience Zen Medidation In Tokyo At These Wonderful Places\nIn our busy modern world, we are often brought up around crazy and intense work schedules, intense social lives, and we try to fit our goals into that equation as best we can, with varying degrees of success. It\u2019s not too outlandish to suggest that our culture is suffering from the epidemics of lost souls and depression thanks to this. Life moves somewhat too fast for us to handle, and this is best exemplified in the modern news cycle.\nNow, so much information is available to us at all times that becoming an informed, aware citizen can feel like an extra full-time job. It\u2019s important to understand the imperative to disconnect from all of this once in awhile. The world will always turn, and there will always be interesting things to grab our attention. However, we aren\u2019t always afforded the ability to reflect on our situation and come to terms with who we are as people.\nEnter meditation. Meditation is one of the best and most growingly popular methods for overcoming the stress and blight of the modern, always connected digital age. A fragmented mind calls out for stability, peace and calm, and the zazen method of meditation has gained a huge following thanks to this. Steve Jobs, the late, famous prior head of Apple, was one of the most vocal western business advocates of the practicality of Zen meditation in daily life.\nYou might feel that in order to have the best retreat for your meditation, you should head to a source, namely, a Zen temple. If you\u2019re bringing a family member or relative, it\u2019s likely that you\u2019d like to have a beautiful culture and city to explore alongside this - as you do need to craft at least some memories when you\u2019re out on vacation. Why not book cheap flights to Tokyo this moment, and check out the following zen faculties that you can glean the methods of this incredible art from.\nRinzaishuu Daihonzan Engakuji\nThis temple is roughly around an hour to get to from the main city station. Beginning every second and fourth Sunday of the month, the sessions had in this temple are amazing, to say the least. Thanks to it\u2019s slightly outside location, Rinzaishuu is surrounding by greenery and forestry which allows you to escape the noise of the city and meditate in silence. Despite the public offerings of tuition courses being quite limited to those two days every month, they are resoundingly worth it.\nSoutoushuu Gyokuhouzan Chokoji\nIf you\u2019re looking for a more local temple, Soutoushuu will give you that experience for the first and third Saturday of the month. They have some simply stunning beginning classes, which can vary from one hour to two hours, plenty for a beginning meditator to get to grips with the class. What\u2019s more is that there are numerous displays of the artistry of meditation, the history behind it including its export from China, and it\u2019s current place in the modern world.\nThis two temples can provide you with everything you need to get up and started in Zen, and thankfully, the whole amenity of Tokyo is right on your doorstep, helping you balance that vacation excitement and life escapism perfectly. Have fun!\nAre you itchy to travel and worried about the cost. Well, travel is affordable if you know how to be frugal. Being a smart buyer is one of the most important you need to learn. I have traveled in a different countries and different states in the USA.I have experienced to go in cruise with my family. Spending money on experiences is the best you can give for yourself and your family so pack up and enjoy your vacation. Don't forget to follow this simple tips.\n3 Ways To Save Money When You Plan Vacation:\n1. Travel Deals: Before you plan your vacation, you should check some of the website like Groupon coupons that has travel deals and I personally used it ( shopping, travel, restaurants deals). Saving the cost during your travel would make your vacation less stress and enjoy things you wanted to do without breaking your bank.\n2. Be Flexible: The most important you need to learn if you want to enjoy your vacation. Be flexible and don't expect too much. Uncertainties are there and we can't avoid it. During my travel, I keep in mind to have an extra days before and after my travel date.\n2. Do not use your emotion: Going on vacation sometime can be stressful. If you can't afford to visit the popular destination, then visit the different one. Sometime, finding the destination that isn't popular among your friends is the best place to go. Don't go where everyone goes.\nTravel Tips and ideas, USA, Washington\n5 Places to Explore in the Beautiful State of Washington\nWhen people visit America, they usually visit the stereotypical destinations and popular tourist attractions such as Disneyland, New York and Miami. However, beneath the bright lights, nightlife and greasy food, there\u2019s a world of beauty to be explored in the enormous continent of North America. Washington is one of the often-forgotten states that people don\u2019t think about visiting because it\u2019s often overshadowed by the capital, Washington D.C. However, it\u2019s a must-visit state especially if you\u2019re looking for beauty. So to help you narrow down the locations and pick a place to go, here are 5 places to explore on a trip to Washington.\nThis reservoir in the North Cascade mountains is an impressive location that has to be seen to be believed. It\u2019s the perfect location for anyone looking to take some beautiful photographs of the natural landscape and it makes a relaxing and eventful hiking trail. The water is a delightful shade of blue-green, the views are absolutely stunning and there are some amenities to make your visit a little more comforting.\nWalla Walla is a town that is packed with natural beauty mixed with charming architecture. There are historical buildings that date back almost 200 years. They litter the streets with shops, cafes, restaurants and plenty of entertainment for the whole family. Accommodation is easy to find too, thanks to places like Quality Inn & Suites in Walla Walla and prices are competitive compared to the rest of the state. As with most scenic locations in Washington, there\u2019s a lot of walking involved and beautiful sights to see.\nIn the middle of Central Washington lies Ellensburg, a town that offers a mix of outdoor and indoor entertainment thanks to its historic location and beautiful scenery. There is a mix of modern and traditional buildings that house all kinds of museums, galleries and restaurants. However, if you\u2019re more interested in outdoor activities, then you can indulge in fishing, hiking and biking in the local area.\nIf you\u2019re up for an 11-mile hike, then Jade Lake is something that you absolutely have to see. It\u2019s a beautiful sight that will convince you to snap up dozens or even hundreds of photographs. The waters are crystal clear, the surrounding scenery is entrancing and the atmosphere is simply amazing. You\u2019ll meet plenty of other hikers along the path, making it a great social activity as well.\nThe eruption of Mount St. Helens in 1980 lead to widespread destruction across the entire area, destroying trees, roads, bridges and wiping out much of the landscape. The steaming volcano is still off-limits to visitors, but the nearby tourist areas and centres have a lot of information about the eruption including videos and explanations. Although the destruction is incredible, it\u2019s still a beautiful area that is slowly recovering and it\u2019s a destination that many tourists frequent. There are local hotels and lodging areas to stay at during your visit to Mount St. Helens, and this is absolutely a place you must visit if you want to experience the beauty of America.\ntaken at Birmingham Zoo, Alabama.\nBuying a timeshare is like buying a vacation property or a second home except that you are not responsible for paying taxes or finding renters when you're not there. Timeshare management companies now give you the option of picking properties that are right next to the beach or those on the top of a snowy mountain. You can get one with just one bedroom or one with enough space for all your friends. Before you sign on the dotted line and become a timeshare owner though, there are three questions you must ask.\nAlways ask about the total cost of buying a timeshare instead of just the quoted price. The price that a seller quotes is usually for the most basic package, which may only let you stay on select dates out of the primary season. Some sellers will not tell you that there is a maintenance cost added up that covers the upkeep of the timeshare. If the cost is higher than you would like, you can usually haggle and get that price down.\nCan You Change Your Details?\nWhen you buy a timeshare, you typically pick the type of unit that you want and the dates that you want to stay. Before you sign your contract though, ask about what happens when you want to change any of those details. You might want to upgrade to a bigger unit after you have kids, move your vacation to a different date or extend your trip by a few days. Most management companies will let you make those changes for a small fee, but some will not let you make any changes and will still charge you for the year, even if you can't be there.\nWhat Happens If You Sell?\nThose searching the web for \u201cget rid of my timeshare\u201d are often buyers who didn't ask questions before they bought one. This includes those who never stopped to look at what happens when they decide to sell. Some timeshare owners require that you turn your ownership back over to the company, which will sell your unit to someone else. Others will limit where you can sell the property and the price you can ask for in your listing. Getting answers to all these questions is the best way to ensure that you make a smart decision when buying a timeshare.",

        "raw_content": "Trends in superyachting at the 2013 Monaco Yacht Show\nThe 23rd annual Monaco Yacht Show is without doubt the most important event in the world of superyachts, showcasing the most exciting new yachts from this ever-evolving industry, in a spectacular four-day event in the photogenic setting of Port Hercule. The show is a key opportunity to bring together superyacht owners, brokers, yacht builders and designers from all over the world.\nFoto: Monaco Yacht Show\nOver 100 super & megayachts from 25-28 September in Monaco\nThe hundred of yachts at the show this year demonstrate the trend among superyacht owners to constantly thrive to do what\u2019s new and different. While ultra high net-worth individuals (UHNWIs) purchase superyachts for many different reasons, including the ultimate privacy that only a yacht can provide, one of the beauties of commissioning a superyacht is that, as long as your idea is within safety regulations, you can create anything you want.\nThe 42-metre yacht Sofia, built by Dutch yard Moonen, is fitted with a bathing platform built to take a three-man submarine that can be easily deployed. On the largest yacht at the show, the 88-metre Quattroelle, the owner wanted an entire half deck dedicated as a self-contained private space for himself and his family. The area includes the owner\u2019s suite, his \u2018n\u2019 hers bathrooms and office, plus two children\u2019s cabins, taking to a new level the concept of having privacy on board closed off from the other guests and the crew. It sees a move away from the previous trend of building yachts that were more neutrally designed, so as not to deter potential charter guests.\nBringing the outside inside is also a growing trend, as today\u2019s guests want to be connected to the ocean in as many places on board as possible. The \u2018beach club\u2019 areas of modern yachts (a deck area at the aft end of a boat that\u2019s only a few feet up from the ocean) have always been popular places to spend time on board, but now they are becoming larger and more developed, featuring saunas, massage rooms and bars.\nOn many newly built yachts, for example the Benetti-built Ocean Paradise or the Amels-built Engelberg, there are terraces and balconies that fold down on each side from the main salon or owner\u2019s area \u2013 these make ideal spots for breakfasting in privacy and fresh air, looking over the ocean. The 65-metre Lady M (built by Palmer Johnson) is one of the fastest yachts at the show, reaching speeds up to 28 knots, and its design is that of a sportscruiser, a fast boat made to speed at full power through the water, made for an owner wanting to feel the wind in his hair rather than sit serenely on deck sipping cocktails.\nMust-see yachts\nEvery year at the Monaco Yacht Show, there are a few yachts that every journalist is clamouring to get on board, whether it\u2019s because of their jaw-droppingly innovative design, sheer size or even an intriguing celebrity owner, and this year\u2019s must-see yachts could be even more extraordinary than last year\u2019s. As mentioned, Quattroelle, built by the highly respected Lurssen yard, is the largest yacht in the show and one of the most spectacular. Huge volumes, a sumptuous self-contained owner\u2019s deck, an extraordinary range of bespoke glassworks and different woods, an onboard art gallery and an enclosable outdoor seating area are highlights on board this extraordinary vessel.\nItalian yard CRN, which this year celebrates its 50th anniversary, brings its own flagship yacht at 80 metres in Chopi Chopi. Each guest cabin on board has its own outdoor area, the owner\u2019s area has its own private hot-tub, and there is room for 33 crew members. The beach club covers 100 square metres, sure to be one of the biggest in the show. This yard also brings J\u2019Ade to the show, which features a floodable tender garage with a side-opening hatch so guests can easily hop on board the tender for exploring or watersports.\nDutch yard Amels will bring the 60-metre Event, from the yard\u2019s 199 series, designed by UK designer Tim Heywood. Its innovate exterior shape, with a vertical bow, will ensure it stands out at the show. The Moonen 42-metre Sofia with its three-man submarine perched on the huge bathing platform will also turn heads. Seahawk, the first 60-metre from Perini Navi, is a sailing yacht that can perform as a racer or be used as a cruiser depending on the owner\u2019s wishes.\nWhile the superyacht industry is far from returning to the heyday of 2007, the situation in 2013 is a new reality, to which the industry is slowly adapting. Brokers are working harder to convince owners that the prices yachts could once command are no longer viable, and expectations need to be adjusted accordingly.\nWhere there is an increased amount of realism among sellers, more deals are done \u2013 but with prices lowered, this doesn\u2019t necessarily translate to greater profit.

        "title": "Telling The Stories That Matter: May 29 - Watchman Nee, Convert, Avid Reader, Prisoner,",
        "raw_content": "May 29 - Watchman Nee, Convert, Avid Reader, Prisoner,\nWatchman Nee was glad that his mother--who had passed only two years previous--was not around to watch her firstborn son be arrested by the Chinese government as a dissident and rebel. But, she wouldn't have been surprised. After all, Watchman had made it abundantly clear that he would not compromise his faith for anything because he was stunningly confident that this was not an option that Jesus had afforded him. Ever since that day when he was seventeen and he had struggled with whether or not to convert to the faith of his mother and his teacher, he had known that to be converted to that faith meant the devotion of his life wholly to the Lord and Savior he only desired to be an acquaintance of, at first. He was not interested in only seeking some eventual salvation if it did not also come with transformation and lifelong calling. So, that night he prayed even though he didn't have the words for it. As he waited in that wordless silence he felt something for the first time in his life: the weight of the sin that hung around his neck. In a flood of moments he was suddenly reminded of the countless times he had rejected God and chosen the path of self-obsession. With the weight of this new discovery, he found himself broken before the God to whom he hoped to pray.\nIn that moment of quiet and wordless desperation Watchman felt another new feeling: undeserved and merciful forgiveness. As he knelt beside his bed he saw Jesus on the cross with arms wide open and blood flowing freely. He saw and knew God's love flowing from the wounds of God and knew with one sudden and startlingly clear moment that Jesus was calling him near. Though his arms\nwere outstretched so that he might die it was clear to Watchman that those same arms were open to him to call him to life-giving and saving faith. Watchman heard Jesus say to him \"I am here waiting to receive you.\" So, Watchman went to Jesus and committed himself to a faith that intimidated him but demanded all of him, as well. To the Jesus who stood with arms\noutstretched to accept all who might avail themselves of his furious love Watchman cried \"Lord, You have really been gracious to me.\" With that, Watchman was converted and accepted a calling to a life of ministry and devotion--a life of sharing what he had received.\nSo, Watchman followed after his Lord and found himself living on only a third of the money he made. He spent a third of his money on others and the final third was spent on reading material which he would read--and memorize large portions--and then give away to others. He read voraciously and applied his keen intelligence to the texts and scripture that he read with regularity. He began to start churches throughout China and insist that Christians were called to be a part of a caring community that accepted no division or separation even while accommodating doctrinal disagreements. For daring to start churches in a country that was quickly succumbing to the seduction of communist rule, he was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to spend fifteen years in prison. He served his sentence and died in confinement on the 30th day of May in the year 1972 at the age of 68. In the wake of Watchman's ministry in China there were many Christians who had heard his story and were willing to carry on the ministry of preaching and spiritual direction that Watchman started.",

This year\u2019s day-long event focuses on addiction and the urban child.\nSubstance-use disorders affect 21.5 million American adults, with nearly 8 million of these individuals also struggling with a mental health disorder. Over 60 percent of teens report that drugs are sold, used or kept at their schools. Family dysfunction is one of the major tragic consequences of addiction, as are financial and legal problems, child abuse and neglect, and domestic violence. Yet only 10 percent of those who need drug treatment receive it. Many of the remaining millions are involved in the justice system for reasons directly and indirectly related to their substance-use disorders.\nThis symposium will bring together experts at the front lines of this critical national issue to examine the science of addiction, as well as the connections between substance-use disorders and the legal, social and economic problems faced by urban families. The symposium also will explore ways in which our communities can help address the problems faced by families and children whose lives are affected by substance-use disorders and dependence.\nMarcellus Anderson\nmanderson@ubalt.edu",

And a very large crowd gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat in it on the sea, and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land. And he was teaching them many things in parables, and in his teaching he said to them: \"Listen! Behold, a sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil. And when the sun rose, it was scorched, and since it had no root, it withered away. Other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain. And other seeds fell into good soil and produced grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.\" And he said, \"He who has ears to hear, let him hear.\" The Purpose of the Parables And when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parables. And he said to them, \"To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables, so that \"'they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand, lest they should turn and be forgiven.'\" And he said to them, \"Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables? The sower sows the word. And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown: when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that is sown in them. And these are the ones sown on rocky ground: the ones who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy. And they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away. And others are the ones sown among thorns. They are those who hear the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful. But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.\"\nHome |LEARN|SERMONS|THE-PARABLE-OF-THE-SOILS||",

        "title": "Danger of space for dissent being captured by nationalists \u2013 UK TAMIL NEWS",
        "raw_content": "Danger of space for dissent being captured by nationalists\nBY Jehan Perera\nThe rise in public manifestation of ethnic nationalism in the North was evident at this year\u2019s commemoration ceremonies of the last phase of the war at Mullivaikkal of May 18, 2009. Several thousands of people attended the ceremony of remembrance held there at the monument erected in memory of the civilians killed in the war. This is the first time since the end of the war that a political event took place on May 18. Politicians from the moderate TNA who attended the event were not permitted to speak and instead university students and nationalist members of civil society groups took the centre stage. Although it was the Northern Provincial Council that had resolved to remember the Tamil civilians who died in the war, it was reported that even the Chairman of the Northern Provincial Council was physically stopped from entering the podium.\nThe only politician who addressed the gathering was Northern Chief Minister C V Wigneswaran, who has fallen out of favour with his party hierarchy. The TNA has made every effort to be moderate and to cooperate with the government to find a mutually acceptable solution to the ethnic conflict and to resolve the outstanding issues of the Tamil people. However, basic issues remain unresolved, including the quantum of devolution and power sharing and dealing with the consequences of the war. The Chief Minister moved a six-point resolution. These included declaring every May 18 in the coming years as \u201cTamil Genocide Day,\u201d the international community to set up an international mechanism to ensure justice for the people affected, ensure a sustainable political settlement based on Tamil sovereignty, homeland and individuality and identify their suffering as a mass disaster situation and arrange the necessary infrastructure to rehabilitate the people directly, and withdrawal of the armed forces from the Tamil areas of traditional habitation.\nThe resolution proposed by the Chief Minister summarises the concerns of the people of the North. The danger inherent in the Chief Minister\u2019s approach is that it is confrontational and if taken forward can only lead to a breaking of relations with the government and the larger society. The Chief Minister, although not supported by his party, also wields influence over youthful minds which are prone to extremism born of idealism. The manifestation of extreme sentiment in the North will surely strengthen the forces of extremist nationalism in the South. The space for democratic action can expand, as it has under the present government. But it can also contract as was the case under the former government which did not permit any form of public commemoration of the last days of the war.\nFrom a reconciliation perspective the greater significance of this year\u2019s commemoration of the end of the war is that the government did not attempt to block the public and political events organized by citizens and political parties in the North. While commemorating the security forces who lost their lives, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said that all civilians who lost their lives from the day the war began should also be remembered during that day. He said \u201cToday is an important day for Sri Lanka as the country is commemorating the end of the war and the emergence of peace. We will also remember the security forces personnel who sacrificed their lives and the civilians who died during the armed conflict.\u201d\nThis statement of the Prime Minister reflected the government\u2019s acknowledgement that this issue continues to be a burning one for the people of the North. The government\u2019s position on the commemoration of the war in the North was defended by government spokesperson Rajitha Senaratne. He compared the commemoration of the northern dead to the commemoration of the southern dead in the JVP insurrections of the past which have been taking place regularly in the South. The government and Minister Senaratne in particular have been denounced by opposition politicians for having permitted the northern commemoration to take place and for justifying the right of the Tamil people to commemorate those who died that day and in the course of the war.\nThe former government saw the end of the war as the end of the ethnic conflict. Even today many of its top leaders will continue to say that there is no more ethnic conflict, only a problem of politics and of economic development. It required a change of government, which took place in 2015, for the government to adopt a more conciliatory approach to dealing with the Northern people\u2019s desire to commemorate May 18 as their day of mourning and sorrow for the loss of their loved ones. But it was not until this May 18 that the government gave the green light for the public and political commemoration of the dead. In the period 2015-17 they only permitted religious observances which were done in public with large numbers of the public in attendance.\nWhile the government\u2019s reform process is going slower than was expected it is ongoing. There was the passage of the amendments to the judicature act that will set up anti-corruption courts that will sit continuously to expedite cases. There are amendments forthcoming that will strengthen anti-corruption laws. The office of missing persons was established and has started to do public activities. The office of reparations is about to be put before parliament. This suggests that there will be more truth seeking, more reparations and more reform of laws that strengthen the protection of human rights. The government needs to do this because of international pressure, to win Tamil votes in the future and to establish a just and healed society for all.\nThose who seek to promote reconciliation and healing through a more even handed approach are vulnerable to attack. At the present time government leaders are being assailed in the South of the country as traitors who are negating the sacrifices of the military and legitimizing those who engaged in warfare and terrorism to divide the country. The strength of the opposition is that they are united in their ethnic nationalism. The weakness of the government is that the government is not of one mind. It is composed of two parties with two leaders, the President and Prime Minister, who are equals with neither being subordinate to the other. They each have their own separate powers. One cannot overwhelm or command the other. The problem is that they have not reached formal agreement about the division of authority.\nIn his speech at the commencement of the new term of parliament on May 8, President Maithripala Sirisena admitted as much when he said that the change that he sought to give leadership to in 2015, has not been completed. He said \u201cCertain incidents that took place in the past three years have proven that we have been unable to develop the socio-political maturity required to move forward with a national government system. The consensual and dialogue democracy is the governing structure of most of the democratic countries in the world today, but it is still an alien concept for us.\u201d The President also identified the key challenges. \u201cFirst among them was to restore democracy and rule of law. Second was to ensure trust and promote peace among the communities. Third was to build the economy of the country tied to a huge debt. Fourth was to win the international arena which was lost.\u201d\nThe problem for the government is that they have been more successful in meeting the first of the challenges, that of restoring democracy and the rule of law, than at meeting the challenges posed by the other priorities identified by the President. As a result there has been an opening of democratic space that is used by political opponents of the government to attack and discredit it. This is the case both in the North and South. If this destructive cycle is to change the government needs to act in a unified manner without one branch of government countermanding the other. This requires that the President and Prime Minister decide on policies together and identify those who will implement them and support the speeding up of the process.",

The purpose of the United Nations, which initiated this project, is to eventually connect the whole world with each other. Starting at the micro level from the street to the neighborhood, the neighborhood, the village, the municipality, the province, the country, Europe and ultimately the world. This is fully in line with the vision of the municipality of Krimpen aan den IJssel. Through this project, with which we will start next year, we have been approached by USC. '\nWhat kind of data is shared and researched from Krimpen?\n'We will be the first Dutch municipality to undergo a kind of audit on hundreds of KPIs. How many people have access to fast internet? How many people have access to public transport? How many people have clean drinking water? You name it. These are indicators that are being researched for the entire world, including in places like Nairobi and Tokyo. '\nWhat about the GDPR? To what extent should this privacy law be taken into account when sharing the data with the UN?\n'The GDPR does not apply because it concerns general community figures. Almost all of them have already been published on a platform, but not anywhere in the world in a single index. Statistics Netherlands has a large share of this data, but also on sites such as' waarstaatjegemeente.nl\u2019.\nUnited for Smart Sustainable Cities (U4SSC) is a global platform that aims to encourage the use of ICT in cities to make the transition to smart and sustainable cities by using technology. The platform, established in 2016, focuses among other things on applications for 'city science' and the application of IoT, cognitive computing, data processing and blockchain in cities.\nThe Sector Association for ICT and Telecommunications (BTG) is, in its own words, the driving force behind the program in the Netherlands. 'BTG is in talks with the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate, with RVO (Netherlands Enterprise Agency) and VNG about the way in which Dutch municipalities and companies are involved in this program', according to the trade association.\nBTG members who are already involved with U4SSC are KPN, T-Mobile, Vodafone and Tele2. As so-called solution partners, Commscope, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, IBM, Dimension Data, VolkerWessels Telecom, Alliander, Sennheiser, Siemens, CCV, Data Club and Unify are part of the project.\nIn addition to the municipality of Krimpen aan den IJssel, BTG is also discussing the program with the municipalities of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Den Bosch and The Hague.\nSource: https://www.computable.nl/artikel/nieuws/datamanagement/6474440/250449/gdpr-geldt-niet-bij-data-krimpen-aan-den-ijssel.html",

        "raw_content": "Upon returning to the Diocese of Alexandria, Fr. Peter worked for several years to help serve the Latino community of approximately 2,000 families. In addition to his work with immigrants, he assisted as an assessor in the Diocesan Tribunal to review marriage annulment cases as well as other Church law matters. Fr. Peter\u2019s facility with languages and canon law led the Judicial Vicar of the Tribunal to consider the possibility of having him travel to Rome, learn Italian, and study for a degree in canon law.\nWhen seeking advice as to where to study canon law, the overwhelming recommendation was The Pontifical University of the Holy Cross. After completing his three-year program in Rome, Fr. Peter returned to his diocese to replace the retiring Judicial Vicar on the Tribunal. However, the needs of the Latino immigrants continued to be an important part of his priestly ministry.\nIn addition to celebrating weekend Masses in Spanish for one of the largest Hispanic communities, Fr. Peter is involved in lay formation for Latinos. His Latin American friends and fellow students from Santa Croce played a role in making Hispanic lay formation very effective. Gathering in a diocesan conference room, Fr. Peter hosts interactive study programs using Skype technology to connect with native Spanish speakers who have theology, biblical, as well as other ecclesiastical degrees.\nFr. Peter has found that the Latino population \u201clove it\u201d and that this would probably never have happened without the influence of his time in Rome. He says, \u201cMany of these ideas and initiatives were born out of the principles of the Second Vatican Council, the Law of the Church and its role in the New Evangelization which were integral components of the formation at Santa Croce. The goal at Santa Croce is for students to take what they learn and apply it their home country. I can\u2019t recommend the university highly enough.\u201d\nFrom Louisiana, to Denver, to Mexico, to Rome, and back again \u2013 the Lord has guided this alumnus of Santa Croce in ways he could never have imagined. Today, Fr. Peter is one of many alumni who are serving the needs of their diocese with innovation and evangelistic zeal. This story of \u201cOur American Impact\u201d is representative of countless examples in Catholic dioceses around the world. Thanks to your support, our graduates continue to bring the Gospel to new generations.\nFr. Peter addressing a meeting for National Hispanic Ministry Leaders in Dallas, Texas.",

Both the college doctor and the nurse stay on campus during the week and are easily accessible at any time of the day or night. The doctor goes to Pune to join his family during the weekends and is then on call in the case of any emergency. A well-equipped ambulance remains on campus for use in emergencies.\nLocal hospitals: UWC Mahindra College is affiliated to two of the best hospitals in Pune, the Ruby Hall Clinic and the Jehangir Hospital. Dental procedures and all specialist consultations and investigations carried out as outpatient services are not covered in the school medical programme and any expense incurred from these is borne by the student.\nMedication and supplies: the medical centre is very well equipped with a variety of medicines including pediatric drugs. Students may collect any medicines prescribed from the centre. The college doctor or nurse will take immediate necessary measures to procure any medicine that you require that may not be on the medical centre inventory. The college usually covers all student health expenses and hospitalization if necessary to the maximum stated in our insurance policy, providing hospitalization does not occur as a result of student negligence.\nDays off are granted in special circumstances when the student makes a request through the Counsellor and are called Personal Days. Students are allowed one day off per semester for either personal reasons or when they feel they need a day to de-stress. Faculty are informed by email from the Counsellor and should mark the attendance as an excused absence. All tests, assignments etc should be completed as usual.\nThe College has basic emergency medical insurance for every student which covers up to 1 lakhs rupees in hospitalization and medical expenses judged sufficient in an Indian context. Routine medical care and treatment will be given at our Medical Centre under the supervision of the College doctor and qualified nurses.\nThe College provides students with different support structures. An on campus counsellor works full time and is available for students to approach if any form of guidance or help is required regarding the mental health and well-being of a student. We can also provide support and medication through a psychiatrist if needed.\nWe also have an informal group of trained students that provide their peers with an alternative, approachable body of people to speak to, in addition to the counsellor, advisors and friends.

Section 108(2)(e) imposed a statutory requirement that the contract should impose a duty on the adjudicator to act impartially. Impartiality in an adjudicator, or indeed an arbitrator or judge, was judged by reference to actual partiality or bias and ostensible or apparent partiality or bias. Ostensible or apparent bias was judged by reference to an objective test as propounded in Porter v Magill (2002), namely whether a fair-minded and informed observer who had considered all the circumstances would conclude that there was a real possibility that he was biased. Whilst the local authority as the contractually specified organisation could have nominated a wholly independent person as adjudicator, it lacked the necessary quality of independence in the nomination of an adjudicator as a party to the construction contract in question because (i) There was no obviously good reason why it retained to itself the right to nominate adjudicators other than to appoint someone who it believed might be sympathetic or not unsympathetic to its position even if wholly independent (ii) It could nominate an adjudicator who was very expensive in relation to the amounts in issue and (iii) It would be difficult to dispel the real possibility that the local authority had appointed what it thought was a \"horse for the course\" and someone who was or might be sympathetic to it. The alternative view put forward by the local authority was that it was not the fact that it was to nominate that would give rise to a lack of impartiality since that would only arise if it nominated someone with actual or apparent partiality. This alternative view was not an unrespectable argument since in some arbitration agreements, for instance those subject to the ICC Rules, each side nominated an arbitrator, albeit that a chairman would then be nominated independently. However, it should nevertheless be rejected.",

Kilimanjaro\nIf you were awake at all yesterday, you might have noticed that your Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest feeds were full of inspirational quotes by Martin Luther King Jr yesterday, in celebration of his birthday, and in memory of his life. He\u2019s such an important man to remember. A man who stood up for injustice. A man who preached and lived an existence of equality, non-violence, peace, advocacy, and love for our fellow men and women. We are incredibly blessed to have such an example that has gone before us in the United States.\nBut I think it\u2019s fair to say we have a long way to go before we can say that we live in the world of which he dreamed.\nWhat\u2019s even more unfortunate is that there are injustices down our streets, across our towns, on the other side of our countries, and in all parts of the world. Is it overwhelming to you? It sure is to me. Often, I\u2019m paralyzed by what is to be done that could make a difference. I\u2019m so thankful for people who are voices for the voiceless, and who are willing to move to action to make a change in the world.\nphoto courtesy of 1MT\nSome of my heroes in the world are the ones who risk comfort and convenience for the sake of others. Sixteen of these heroes are hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro at the beginning of March, reaching the summit on March 8th, International Women\u2019s Day. Wow! Y\u2019all, it\u2019s five days of hiking!\nThis group is part of a larger organization called One Million Thumbprints, and is a grassroots movement to raise awareness and to stop sexual violence against women in war-torn parts of the world. You can read more about their story here. By hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro, this group of sixteen regular people, just like you and me, and proclaiming that peace is more valuable than war, women are treasures, not possessions, and sexual violence is an reprehensible reality of war that should be stopped.\nBack in October, I had the privilege of learning about 1MT and adding my thumbprint to a banner, expressing my support and solidarity for this movement. Today, I ask that you will join also in praying for and supporting this operation.\nSo will you join, too? Will you raise your voice for others suffering the unspeakable? Will you give your thumbprint? Maybe skip your cup of java at the drive-thru for a few days and give money to fund this incredible movement?\nCome back to the blog this week to learn of more ways that you can support 1MT!\nFor more information, check out onemillionthumbprints.org and check out this video below.

        "raw_content": "M. Adamson: We are blessed in Australia with a very active Polish community. This is a community numbering some 150,000 individuals in our population of nineteen million. It doesn't sound large but because our population is so diverse - we're made up of people coming from over 120 countries - the Polish population is the fourteenth-largest community. The Polish community is very active in helping to bring to the Australian population not only the country's traditions and customs, but also the modern Poland, so that there is an awareness among Australians generally of modern Poland.\nDuring the Cold War most Australians didn't think too much about the differences between all the Warsaw Pact countries or Central and Eastern European countries. But now this differentiation is developing very rapidly and the perception of Poland in Australia is increasingly of a modern state, a large state, a state which has much to offer in terms of investment opportunities, a state with a vibrant culture, a state with a very strong intellectual tradition. In Australia too, Polish-Australians are among our intellectuals and cultural figures.\nHaving said that, however, I would say that we still have a great amount to do. We still have to do a lot of awareness-lifting in both countries. But a great deal is being done and, frankly speaking, we are busier than we have ever been in all parts of our embassy in terms of this discovery on both sides.\nWhat do you think Poland can learn from the Australian experience?\nI'm very cautious to respond to questions like that because I feel very strongly that it's not appropriate to lecture another country about one's own experience and I think it is never possible to simply take a country's experience and export it or import it. Every country is unique, every society is unique and they must make their own choices and they must make their own policies based on their own experience.\nBut at the same time I think that they can share with each other some aspects of particular approaches. In Australia we have a mixture of cultures. This has led us to insist upon mutual respect and mutual tolerance of difference and we have very strong legislation that demands that there is no discrimination on the basis of colour, religion, sexual preference, gender or ethnic origin. There can be no legal discrimination. But of course we all know that informally there can be prejudice which does continue in society and I'm not claiming there is none of it in Australia. But what I'm saying is that we might perhaps have less than elsewhere simply because we are such a mixture, and evidence of a cosmopolitan society can be seen just by walking down the street in most of our cities. This experience is something very positive that Australia can share with other nations.\nIs Australia a good place to study for foreign students?\nI think the figures speak for themselves. Education services, along with tourism, are two of our major exports. Students from all over the world come to Australia for all kinds of courses. They often combine a course with a look at our country, and this we very much welcome because it helps us to develop international relationships. I feel that if young people take the opportunity to travel and learn about different countries and different countries' approaches, this is a wonderful investment for international relations in the future. It's also a potential investment in business relations, but fundamentally it is an investment in people-to-people contact and mutual understanding.\nWhat should a Polish candidate consider before applying to an Australian university? How far does the factor of cost discourage young people from studying in Australia?\nCost very obviously is something that must be taken into account. What we tend to find is that students who come to Australia for a twelve-week course or longer discover, after all the costs are taken into account, that the cost evens out with that of going to the United Kingdom or the USA. The longer one is there the more economical it becomes. The details for the various types of packages are available on our Embassy website www.australia.pl. I think people are often very nervous about the sheer distance and automatically expect it's going to be terribly expensive simply because it's so far away. But if you travel at the right time of year, a return ticket to Australia can cost under US $1000. And when you get there the cost of living in Australia is actually very reasonable. I think the average Polish person considering this kind of study would be pleasantly surprised by the cost of living in Australia.\nAre you enjoying yourself in Poland?\nI enjoy my work enormously and I am very committed to what I am asked to do here so it goes without saying that I enjoy my time in Poland in a professional way. I have quite a young family - three young children: 13, 11, and 9, and obviously they like to see something of their mother as well as their father. So in my free time at the weekends we go to museums, take trips here and there around the countryside to show the children different parts of Poland. Overall it's a fascinating country to be in and right now it's an exciting time to be here because of the pace of change and the optimism that one finds. One feels very privileged to be in this country at this time.",

On Monday evening, Onan felt a sudden pain in his left calf during Turkey's evening practice session in Koper, their First Round venue at EuroBasket 2013, and was unable to continue training. The veteran guard was rushed into hospital and an MRI scan revealed he had suffered an injury that will require immediate treatment and will sideline him for the next 10 days at least. The 35-year-old Onan will of course be unable in what had been the fifth EuroBasket tournament in his career and flew back to Turkey on Tuesday to start the rehabilitation process.

After the team's first practice session on Slovenian soil, head coach Mike Fratello has decided that the official 12-man roster he will submit to FIBA Europe later on Tuesday will be made up of Dmytro Zabirchenko, Ihor Zaytsev, Dmitro Gliebov, Maksym Pustozvonov, Viacheslav Krautsov, Sergii Gladyr, Artem Pustoviy, Oleksander Mishula, Oleksander Lypovyy, Eugene Jeter, Kyryll Natyazhko and Maksym Korniyenko.

Prior to Lithuania's opening tip-off in Jesenice against Serbia at 9pm CET, the 21-year-old will be presented with the trophy for 2012 FIBA Europe Young Men's Player of the Year - the second consecutive year that the Utena native has been bestowed with the honour. Valanciunas eclipsed other nominations in the field which was voted on by selected journalists and fans, easily seeing off Croatia's Dario Saric and France's Leo Westermann, who finished second and third respectively.

The unlucky 30-year-old power forward suffered the recurrence of an old injury in his left knee upon Italy's return home from Greece, where they had played their last warm-up games in the Acropolis tournament, and he will not board the plane to Slovenia after spending the best part of the summer in training camp with the rest of the 'Azzurri'. Gigli's inury is but the latest in a series of setbacks that Italy head coach Simone Pianigiani has had to deal with in the build-up to this September's EuroBasket.

Teodosic travelled to Russia over the weekend and was submitted to tests by CSKA Moscow's medical team. \"They told me that I need another month of undergoing treatment and only after that can I slowly start to play,\" he said. The 26-year-old playmaker sustained a calf injury during CSKA Moscow's last game of the club season and only joined Serbia in practice last week, without being included in the squad for any of their preparation games. \"I'm really very sorry that I cannot go with the team,\" an extremely disappointed Teodosic said.

The 25-year-old forward underwent a late fitness test during the weekend to confirm his availability and the doctors' verdict must have sounded like music to the ears of head coach Joe Prunty. Clark will be one of six players returning from Great Britain's Olympic Games 2012 squad, alongside captain Andrew (Drew) Sullivan, Andrew Lawrence, Kieron Achara, Eric Boateng, and Kyle Johnson. Youngsters Devon van Oostrum, Myles Hesson and Alasdair Fraser will all make their debut with the senior national team in a major tournament.

If you are a gymnast the answer is approximately 18, golf it is in your late fifties. But how about if you are a German national basket player? Looking at the German team that will take to the court in Ljubljana this week, the answer to the above question appears to be 24 - the age of Robin Benzing whose appearance in Slovenia will mark his third EuroBasket tournament. On the youngest-ever German EuroBasket roster, Benzing is one of only four players to have been there twice before, the other three being Tibor Pleiss, Lucca Staiger and Heiko Schaffartzik. \"It's kinda funny that I will be one of the older members of the team,\" pondered the 2.08m forward at the beginning of summer when fibaeurope.com caught up with him at a Bayern Munich training. Read more here.\nSeptember 1, 2013 - Unlucky Timma out of Latvia squad\nSmall forward Janis Timma fell ill just days before Latvia's departure for Slovenia and will have to miss out on EuroBasket 2013, which would have been his first major tournament with the senior national team. The 21-year-old, who was selected in this summer's NBA Draft by the Memphis Grizzlies with the 60th overall pick, contracted a virus and came down with a fever. Timma will have to take antibiotics for at least another week and had to be ruled out of the team on Saturday evening, when head coach Ainars Bagatskis announced his final 12-man roster fo EuroBasket. The squad that will represent the Baltic nation in Slovenia consists of Martins Meiers, Andrejs Selakovs, Kaspars Berzins, Rolands Freimanis, Mareks Mejeris, Janis Strelnieks, Dairis Bertans, Armands Skele, Janis Blums, Kristaps Janicenoks, Janis Berzins and Rihards Kuksiks.

Tyus received the green light from the medical team to re-join the team in practices on Wednesday, but sat out Israel's last two warm-up games midweek, against Georgia. Shivek waited until the eleventh hour before announcing his chosen roster to make sure the 25-year-old center would be fit enough to compete at the EuroBasket. The coach had stated that he would take Tyus to Slovenia even if he was at 70 percent of full fitness, as Israel have no direct replacement for him.

Antoine Diot with a three-pointer gave Les Bleus the edge in the final minute before Nicolas Batum put the finishing touches with two free-throws. \"We have a good team. I think we are ready. We played a couple of good games now, against Spain and now here,\" commented Batum right after the game. \"We have the chance to do something good [at the EuroBasket]. \"Our goal is to go all the way through and get a gold medal.\" Read more here.\nAugust 31, 2013 - Turkey's 12 in jubilant mood\nTurkey celebrated Hedo Turkoglu's achievement of a milestone on Friday by announcing their 12-man squad for EuroBasket 2013 and clinching victory in their final warm-up game before the tournament. Turkoglu was honoured by Turkish Basketball Federation (TBF) president Turgay Demirel for playing his 300th game with the national team, prior to Turkey's friendly clash with Poland at Abdi \u0130pek\u00e7i Arena. The charismatic 34-year-old guard/forward first suited up for Turkey at the 1995 European Championship for Cadets and made his debut with the seniors in a major tournament at EuroBasket 1999, in France.

The winger picked up a muscle injury during Thursday's practice session and an MRI scan on Friday confirmed that he will need to undergo medical treatment for the next three to four weeks, which rules him out of the EuroBasket. \"All five times I have torn a muscle in my career it happened to me while dribbling the ball, not on defence,\" the disappointed 28-year-old told Vecernji List daily. Tomas missed out on EuroBasket 2009 and only played in Croatia's first two games at EuroBasket 2011, because of a similar injury. Read more here.\nAugust 30, 2013 - Vucevic headlines Montenegro final squad\nMontenegro will not arrive after all at EuroBasket 2013 with a dream frontcourt that could have been the envy of the tournament, but head coach Luka Pavicevic can still count with a formidable roster in the big event in Slovenia. Star center Nikola Pekovic, who pulled out of the EuroBasket, and young big man Marko Todorovic, who battled a hand injury throughout the summer, are the most notable absences from the Montenegrin roster. But Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic, who was the second-leading rebounder in the NBA last season, will take to the court in Slovenia, bolstering enormously a team that had already impressed in last year's Qualification Round by defeating the likes of Serbia and Israel both home and away. Read more here.\nAugust 30, 2013 - Size matters in Lithuania's final roster\nThe last two players to be cut from the squad that will represent Lithuania at EuroBasket 2013 are both guards, as head coach Jonas Kazlauskas has opted for a line-up well-stocked on forwards and big men. Kazlauskas has announced that neither the 24-year-old Adas Juskevicius nor the 21-year-old Vytenis Cizauskas will make their debut with the senior national team in a major tournament at September's EuroBaske in Slovenia. The Lithuanian tactician made public the decision following his team's comfortable 94-73 victory over EuroBasket Group B rivals Bosnia and Herzegovina, in their third and final warm-up game during the Acropolis tournament, in Athens. \"Both of them are young players and I hope that the time they spent this summer in preparations will be very useful to them,\" commented Kazlauskas. Read more here.\nAugust 30, 2013 - Germany announce EuroBasket 12-Man squad\nGermany head coach Frank Menz announced publicly on Friday the 12 players that will make up his team at EuroBasket 2013, which tips off next Wednesday in Slovenia. The player who had to endure the heartbreak of being the last one to be released from the squad was 26-year-old point guard Nicolai Simon. \"Nico has developed great this summer and so we did not take this decision lightly,\" Menz said. \"At the end it was small details that made the difference, but I am sure that Nico will find his way.\" Simon has suited up for Germany's youth national teams throughout his teenage years, but has never played for his nation in a major tournament at senior level.

The Czechs were drawn in Group C together with reigning European champions Spain, hosts Slovenia, Croatia, Poland and Georgia, and many dismissed them immediately as the team that stood no chance in this company to advance to the Second Round. That was then. Now, with just five days remaining to the start of the big event in Slovenia, the Czech Republic are healthy, happy and are feeling like probably the luckiest of all 24 teams in the competition. \"We are not going to the EuroBasket to lose five games,\" warned Czech captain Lubos Barton on Wednesday. Read more here.\nAugust 30, 2013 - Latvian confidence up ahead of Slovenia\nLatvia will arrive in Jesenice to take on Bosnia and Herzegovina on Wednesday with their confidence riding high following back-to-back wins over a highly fancied Finnish team in Finland. In their final warm-up games ahead of EuroBasket, the Latvians made the journey across the Baltic Sea to take on Henrik Dettmann's troupes, winning the first outing on Wednesday night 90-84, then the second, an evening later, 106-70. However, not so much should be read into the second result, given it took place behind closed doors and was treated more like a scrimmage with the scores being reset to zero at the beginning of each quarter.

The names of the 12 Greek players that will board the plane to Slovenia have not yet been announced officially but, according to a statement on the Greek federation's (EOK) website, Trinchieri spoke both with Vougioukas and Vassilis Kavvadas about his decision, prior to the Thursday game against Italy in the Acropolis tournament. The 22-year-old Kavvadas, a 2.05m center of imposing physical strength, will therefore be the surprise inclusion to the Greek squad that will compete at the EuroBasket. He received playing time with Athens club Panionios in the Greek A1 league and the Eurocup last season, and was called up to join Greece's preparations in late July, as cover for the injured Sofoklis Schortsanitis.

Combo guard Aleksey Shved of the Minnesota Timberwolves headlines a roster that also includes Sergey Monya, Sergey Karasev, Evgeny Voronov, Vitaliy Fridzon, Dmitry Sokolov, Semen Antonov, Dmitry Khvostov, Evgeny Valiev, Anton Ponkrashov, Dmitry Kulagin and Alexey Savrasenko. \"We have a slightly difficult situation as there is a rejuvenation of the team, and many of its leaders will not play with us,\" Karasev commented. \"There are some players on this team for whom this EuroBasket will be their first experience of a big tournament. \"We've had to modify our style of basketball, make it faster, and this team needs to get used to the new style. Read more here.\nAugust 29, 2013 - Mancinelli, Lojeski ruled out\nItaly simply cannot catch a break this summer. On the day the Azzurri welcomed back to action Luigi Datome after a 10-day lay-off, they received the news that fellow forward Stefano Mancinelli is forced to miss EuroBasket 2013. Mancinelli picked up a muscle injury in his right leg during Tuesday's warm-up game against Greece in Athens. He was submitted to an MRI scan the following day and the diagnosis confirmed that the rehabilitation time required exceeds the length of the EuroBasket tournament, so there is no sense for head coach Simone Pianigiani to include him in the squad. \"Mancinelli was recuperating his form after a season where he hadn't played that much,\" said a deeply disappointed Pianigiani. Read more here.\nAugust 29, 2013 - Skj\u00f6ldebrand makes Sweden's final squad\nForward Jonathan Skj\u00f6ldebrand has successfully shaken off an injury to become the player that completes Sweden's 12-strong final squad for EuroBasket 2013, which was announced on Wednesday evening. Skj\u00f6ldebrand has been sidelined with back pains for the past two weeks but Sweden head coach Bradley Dean had made it clear that he would wait for a clear prognosis on the fitness of the veteran before announcing the names of the 12 players that will represent the nation in Slovenia. \"The doctor said that Jonathan could not play on Friday, in our last friendly game in Germany,\" Dean said. \"But he should be back to 100 percent on Sunday, so we have taken him on the team.\" Read more here.\nAugust 28, 2013 - Saric honoured to live EuroBasket dream\nDario Saric, touted as one of the best young players in the world, is only hours away from being named on Croatia's team for EuroBasket 2013 and, consequently, fulfilling one of his childhood dreams. \"I feel great, ever since I was a child I have watched the EuroBasket on TV, followed the games and cheered on for Croatia,\" the 19-year-old versatile forward confessed in an interview with crosarka.com. \"And now, to become a part of such a great team, which will compete in such a major event, it is certainly a great honour and pleasure for me, and that means a lot. \"I will also have the opportunity to acquire great gaming experience next to players who play in Europe's biggest clubs. Read more here.\nAugust 28, 2013 - Lithuania need speed, Greece a coin\nLithuania and hosts Greece were victorious on the opening day of the Acropolis tournament, which has been serving as a EuroBasket warm-up event for three decades, but both teams are still seeking something else. The Baltic side defeated Italy 79-63 in the first game, behind 18 points from Linas Kleiza and 14 points from Darjus Lavrinovic. The Lithuanians started pulling away during the second quarter, were ahead 38-32 at the half-time interval and maintained a steady double-digit lead throughout the second half. \"We had a lot of ups and downs in our game, but every time we run in the open floor we were successful,\" said Lithuania coach Jonas Kazlauskas. Read more here.\nAugust 28, 2013 - Great Britain trim Squad, Israel, Belgium worry\nGreat Britain have cut two players from their preliminary roster and reduced their squad to 14 men; Israel and Belgium meanwhile are sweating over the fitness of key players. Great Britain are already in Spain, where they will face the reigning European champions in back-to-back warm-up games, on Wednesday and Thursday. Prior to the departure of the British team for what will undoubtedly be their two most challenging tests in the build-up to EuroBasket 2013, head coach Joe Prunty decided to release two players from training camp. Veteran power forward Dzaflo Larkai and 25-year-old small forward Orlan Jackman were disappointed to hear on Tuesday that they will not make their first ever appearance in a major tournament with the senior national team in September's show-piece event. Read more here.\nAugust 27, 2013 - Finland announce EuroBasket squad\nFinland head coach Henrik Dettmann announced on Tuesday the names of the 12 players that will represent the Nordic nation at EuroBasket 2013 that tips off next week in Slovenia. The Finnish tactician opted to maintain the hard core of the team that turned heads in the 2011 edition of the show-piece European tournament. Playing in the first EuroBasket since 1995, the Finns came within a whiff of clinching a place in the quarter-finals of the big event in Lithuania, eventually finishing in ninth place, their best result since 1967. Sharp-shooter Petteri Koponen, who was the national team's leading scorer at both EuroBasket 2011 and during their Qualification Round campaign last summer, headlines Dettmann's list. Read more here.\nAugust 27, 2013 - Spain win in more than just a friendly\nMarc Gasol received a Sergio Rodriguez pass down low, posted up Alexis Ajinca and released a trademark hook-shot three seconds from the final buzzer to give Spain an 85-84 lead over France on Monday night in Montpelier. French point guard Tony Parker, who had caught fire in the second half and finished with a game-high 28 points, has sunk during his illustrious career many an important shot in much less time than three seconds. But on Monday his desperation shot did not drop in and Spain claimed the victory in this warm-up game eight days before the start of EuroBasket 2013, and the second between the two finalists of 2011 within the space of three days. Gasol scored 26 points, including the winning basket, to pave the way for Spain, and also added six rebounds and four assists. Read more here.\nAugust 27, 2013 - Greece go big, let go of Vasileadis\nGreece are set to announce a EuroBasket 2013 squad including just four players below 2.03m of height, after Kostas Vasileiadis and Dimitris Katsivelis were informed that they will not travel to Slovenia for the big event. Head coach Andrea Trinchieri decided to cut the two players from his preliminary squad for the EuroBasket after the return of the Greeks on Monday to their base in Athens from Germany. The Hellenic squad had participated in the warm-up tournament in Ulm over the weekend, where they lost to F.Y.R. Of Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, before defeating the hosts on the final day. \"I want to say that both [Vasileiadis and Katsivelis] put all their efforts into helping the national team, they are good players and good team-mates,\" Trinchieri said. Read more here.\nAugust 26, 2013 - Serbia win while playing waiting game\nIn announcing their final squad for EuroBasket 2013, Serbia face a predicament different to most other teams affected by injuries, as their plans are hampered by the insecurity of potential, rather than confirmed, absences. Serbia head coach Dusan Ivkovic has made it clear that he will wait on Milos Teodosic until the eleventh hour, before deciding on his 12-man squad that will travel to Slovenia for the big event. The state of health of the star point guard, who has been following treatment for the past three months, as well as that of forward Vladimir Lucic, who is nursing a back injury, will be the decisive factor in the make up of Serbia's 12-strong team for the EuroBasket. Read more here.\nAugust 26, 2013 - Russia down to 13 and still short\nRussia decided to trim their preliminary squad for EuroBasket 2013 to 13 players on Sunday, but the decision on the final 12-man team that will travel to Slovenia will have to wait until Thursday. Head coach Vasiliy Karasev could only watch in disbelief as power forward Andrey Vorontsevich was helped out of the court on Friday, after spraining his ankle in a warm-up game against Finland in Vilnius. Vorontsevich will need to undergo a three-week rehabilitation process and will therefore not play for Russia at the EuroBasket. Karasev was hoping that the versatile 26-year-old CSKA Moscow forward would provide him with crucial solutions in a frontcourt full of question marks, and partially make up for the absence of centers Sasha Kaun and Timofey Mozgov, and star power forward Victor Khryapa. Read more here.\nAugust 26, 2013 - Poland reduce squad to 12 players\nPoland have stopped short of officially announcing the names of the players that will board the plane to Slovenia next week to represent the country at EuroBasket 2013, but a late Sunday decision by their head coach Dirk Bauermann has now reduced their squad to just 12 players. Any of the 24 teams that will compete at the EuroBasket has until the eve of the tournament, which tips off on 4 September, to submit their selected 12-man squad and no changes can be made after that date. The German tactician has opted to release Lukasz Wisniewski from training camp, as according to Polish media fellow shooting guard Adam Waczynski convinced the coaching staff that he was in better condition to clinch the last available spot on the wing positions. Read more here.\nAugust 25, 2013 - Slovenia announce EuroBasket squad\nSlovenia head coach Bozidar Maljkovic announced on Sunday the 12-man squad that will represent the host nation at EuroBasket 2013, which starts on 4 September. The team that will try to fulfil the home fans' wishes and hopes for a historic first EuroBasket medal consists of Nebojsa Joksimovic, Goran Dragic, Jaka Lakovi\u010d, Jaka Blazic, Zoran Dragic, Edo Muri\u0107, Bostjan Nachbar, Domen Lorbek, Jure Bala\u017ei\u010d, Mirza Begic, Uros Slokar and Gasper Vidmar. \"I have made this decision because I think that each of the 12 players that stays on the team has the necessary quality and deserves to play at the EuroBasket,\" Maljkovic said. The Serbian coach of the hosts has opted for experience and a proven track record in choosing his final squad, as the only big-name absences at the home EuroBasket will be those of power forward Erazem Lorbek and guard Beno Udrih. Read more here.\nAugust 25, 2013 - Ambassadors presented EuroBasket medals\nThe Ambassadors of EuroBasket 2013 were presented the medals for EuroBasket made by Zlatarna Celje, before the last preparation game of the Slovenian national team. The shape of the medal, with its purity of the lines and surfaces concentrates on the essentials and the ergonomic tension gives it a pleasant feeling at the touch. The medal gives an impression from two parts, which form the whole and is a symbol of success. With its weight of 210 grams it gives the highest acknowledgment for hard work and effort. Read more here.\nAugust 24, 2013 - Valanciunas gearing up for battle\nAmid all the talk about the high-profile big men that will miss out at EuroBasket 2013, fans tend to overlook the fact they will still be treated in Slovenia to battles among several of the best centers in the world. Pau Gasol, Joakim Noah, Andrea Bargnani, Nikola Pekovic, or Zaza Pachulia are some of the stars that, regrettably, will not grace the hardwood in Europe's greatest tournament. But then again, the likes of Marc Gasol, best defensive players of the year in the NBA, Nikola Vucevic, the second-leading rebounder in the NBA last season, FC Barcelona top-scorer Ante Tomic, or the 'Polish Machine' Marcin Gortat will be the stars of their respective national teams in Slovenia. As will Jonas Valanciunas of Lithuania, the youngest player in this company. Read more here.\nAugust 24, 2013 - Russia lose unlucky Vorontsevich\nRussia have suffered one more important loss in their frontcourt ahead of EuroBasket 2013, as medical exams confirmed on Saturday that Andrey Vorontsevich will miss the tournament due to injury. Vorontsevich fell to to floor following a collision with another player under the basket during Russia's friendly game against Finland in Vilnius on Friday. Due to the fall, the 26-year-old power forward suffered a cut to his forehead, which required eight stitches after the game. The real problem however was that he also sprained his ankle severely, and after an MRI scan the doctors decided he would have to keep his foot in a plaster cast for the next three weeks - EuroBasket tips off in 11 days. Read more here.\nAugust 21, 2013 - Magical realism for Serbia, Italy\n\"Return to Italy and good news on the ankle, now to watch a quality Harry Potter,\" Italy forward Luigi Datome tweeted to his followers on Tuesday night. It is safe to assume that no amount of spectacular magic tricks by the fictitious adolescent wizard could ever leave such an impression on Italy head coach Simone Pianigiani as the results of Datome's MRI scan that day. The exam brought about the 'good news' the player mentioned in his tweet, just hours after Italy's hopes at EuroBasket 2013 had suffered a huge blow with the confirmation that star center Andrea Bargnani would not recover in time to join the team. Italy desperately needed something positive to swift the mood on the team and, although hardly a magic trick, the news that Datome had avoided serious injury produced the desired result. Read more here.\nAugust 21, 2013 - Sweden reduce squad to 13 players\nSweden head coach Bradley Dean has made a final decision on 11 of the spots in his team for EuroBasket 2013 and retains a further two players in the squad as options for the last available place on the plane to Slovenia. Stars Jonas Jerebko and Jeffery Taylor, alongside Anton Gaddefors, Viktor Gaddefors, Kenny Grant, Ludvig Hakansson, Joakim Kjellbom, Brice Massamba, Thomas Massamba, Dino Pita and Erik Rush are the 11 players that have secured their place on the Swedish team. Shooting guard Tobias Borg will travel with his teammates to Poland at the weekend, where Sweden will be participating in a four-nation friendly tournament, and upon their return either him or small forward Jonathan Skj\u00f6ldebrand will be handed the last spot on the Slovenia-bound 12-men squad. Read more here.\nAugust 20, 2013 - Italy without Bargnani, wait on Datome\nThe medical staff of the Italian Basketball Federation (FIP) confirmed on Tuesday that center Andrea Bargnani will not recover from pneumonia in time to play at EuroBasket 2013. \"In light of the latest clinical results and after consulting the opinion of the medical sector of the federation, the FIP releases athlete Andrea Bargnani from presenting at the national team's training camp in Trieste,\" the federation announced in a statement on their website. \"Bargnani's situation has notably increased in the last days, but not to the point to allow his recuperation in time for EuroBasket 2013, which commences on 4 September. \"The FIP wishes to thank Bargnani for his efforts and wish him the best of luck for the future.\" Read more here.\nAugust 20, 2013 - Polish machine tired of losing\nMarcin Gortat, nicknamed the 'Polish machine', made two pledges to his national team this summer and has already delivered on the first one, to re-join the squad in preparations during last weekend's friendly tournament in Antwerp. In fact the star 29-year-old center did so in such a convincing manner that he forced all those who had doubted he would fulfil his promise when he left the Polish training camp 20 days earlier, to mince their words. Gortat arrived at the Sunday warm-up game against hosts Belgium almost straight from the airport, following a long flight back from the western part of the United States, to drop 20 points and lead his team to a dominant 66-52 win. On Monday, Gortat poured in 18 points and fellow big man Maciej Lampe added 16 points as Poland defeated Italy 82-79 to win the three-day tournament unbeaten.

Belgium's First Round group includes EuroBasket 2011 silver medallists France, Germany, Israel, Ukraine and Great Britain and the Benelux country never seemed to be included in the mix whenever conversation shifted to the contenders for the top three spots, that lead to the next phase of the tournament. It was not an unfounded omission, as Belgium's best-ever finish at a EuroBasket was a fourth spot in the post-war edition of 1947 and when the nation returned to the Final Round in Lithuania in 2011, they lost all of their games and finished in 21st place.

Italy find themselves in perhaps the most delicate position of all, as superstar Andrea Bargnani is battling a problem that cannot be dealt with physiotherapy. On Tuesday 20 August the doctors of the Italian basketball federation (FIP) will re-assess the health status of the New York Knicks big man, who contracted pneumonia and had to pull out of training camp at the beginning of August. Without Bargnani, Italy took excessive shots from outside and fell both to hosts Belgium (75-67) and to Israel (78-74) in a friendly tournament in Antwerp over the weekend.

The hosts, France, were always planning for this encounter to be a bright occasion, as it was the inaugural game for the brand-new arena in Antibes and the 5,200-strong capacity crowd were certainly not disappointed. Apart from the victory of their national team, local fans were treated to a fantastic clash of atypical, for a friendly game, intensity. \"This was a real EuroBasket game,\" France head coach Vincent Collet summed it up. \"It was a thrilling game,\" Serbia head coach Dusan Ivkovic concurred. Tony Parker, who had a small break from training camp, returned to action with Les Bleus on Thursday and delivered his best performance in a friendly game this summer.

Only a few days later though, the 18-year-old tall point guard is about to experience a potentially bigger euphoria, as he received a call from Bogdan Tanjevic to join the senior Turkish national team in training camp for EuroBasket 2013. Tanjevic was aware of the outstanding performances of the 1.97m playmaker in the tournament in Latvia, but the call-up has arrived sooner in the career of Sipahi than anyone anticipated because of an unforeseen setback. Veteran point guard Ender Arslan is nursing an Achilles heel injury which only seems to get worse with time.

Playing for the first time in the last 13 years without either of super-stars Pau Gasol and Juan Carlos Navarro, and also without the likes of Felipe Reyes and Serge Ibaka in the frontcourt, Spain accomplished a first important mission. That was not, as some might believe, to convince anyone outside the country that they are still the intimidating super-power of years past, but to emerge victorious from the most anticipated encounter in the run-up to the EuroBasket, for reasons within Spain.

Karasev announced on Tuesday that he has decided to release Balashov from training camp and that Russia will continue their preparations for EuroBasket 2013 with a 15-man preliminary roster. \"The decision on Balashov was hard to take,\" Karasev explained. \"However, we are forced to part with some players, trim the squad, as the time to the start of the EuroBasket is running out. \"I note that all our players, with the possible exception of clear centers [Alexei] Savrasenko and [Dmitry] Sokolov, should be able to play at two or three positions. \"As for Nikita, at the moment he cannot compete with the players at his position in the senior national team of Russia.

Youngsters Evan Fournier and Leo Westermann, as well as forward/center Kim Tillie are the three players to have been left out of the final French squad. While Tillie had not featured in the last two friendly games of Les Bleus and his omission did not come as an enormous surprise, many expected the Denver Nuggets combo guard and the Partizan Belgrade playmaker to make their debut with the senior national team in September's EuroBasket. \"Evan had little time to show us what he could do, and although in the last few games he improved and started to play more freely, it was still not enough to make us change our mind about what we had seen before,\" Collet explained.

The Azzurri defeated Poland 76-65 on Saturday in the Trentino Cup behind 17 points from Alessandro Gentile and 12 from Pietro Aradori, despite the fact they had to play without the sidelined-through-illness Andrea Bargnani, and Luigi Datome and Angelo Gigli who were both being rested. Italy had previously prevailed over both Israel and Georgia and claimed first place in the tournament, to the delight of their head coach Simone Pianigiani, who liked what he saw from his players. \"Today [Saturday] we also did things well and despite the absences we sacrificed for the team and shared around points and responsibility among everyone.\" Read more here.\nAugust 9, 2013 - Latvia beat Russia \"without euphoria\"\nLatvia suffocated Russia on defence and registered a 72-52 win over their famed opponents in the first of two warm-up games between the two sides ahead of EuroBasket 2013, in Riga on Thursday night. The new-look Russia of Vasily Karasev started promisingly and led their hosts 17-11 at the end of the opening quarter. Latvia however took their guests by storm in the second frame and outscored them 31-11 in that period, turning the tables around once and for all. Janis Blums paced the winners with 15 points, five rebounds and four assists and Rolands Freimanis added 13 points and six rebounds, but he was quick to put the win into perspective. \"Two years ago, a result like this would make us ecstatic, but now we are well aware that it does not mean so much,\" Freimanis offered. \"The coach after the game immediately emphasized the fact we committed over 20 turnovers.

On Tuesday, Croatia suffered a 74-70 loss to F.Y.R of Macedonia in the first friendly game between the two teams and to make things worse, young forward Dario Saric picked up an ankle injury during the encounter. The following morning however, Saric was submitted to a magnetic resonance and the results of the exam could hardly be better, as it revealed that no ligaments were torn and the participation of the talented star at EuroBasket 2013 is not under any danger. In fact, doctors said that Saric only needs to abstain from practice for between five and seven days, during which time he will stay in Zagreb to undergo treatment, and then he will rejoin Croatia in training camp.

Following the withdrawal of the Chicago Bulls forward and the Portland Trail Blazers center, another key member of the national team, Pops Mensah-Bonsu, has announced his decision to not suit up for Great Britain at the upcoming show-piece event. \"Hurts my heart that I am not playing but I have my reasons! Trust me,\" the athletic big man wrote in a post on social network twitter on Tuesday. Mensah-Bonsu, who averaged 11.5 points and 7.2 rebounds for Great Britain in last summer's Olympics, missed the biggest part of the last club season with an injury.

Bargnani has had to stop any training activity, as he contracted a respiratory system infection, has high fever and is undergoing therapy. Although speculation about the big man's recovery times is rife, there is no indication right now to suggest his participation at the EuroBasket is under jeopardy. The New York Knicks player however will definitely not overcome the infection by the time the curtain comes down on the Trentino Basket Cup tournament, so he will also not play against Israel or Poland, Italy's next opponents after their premiere with Georgia.

The Montenegrin Basketball Federation (KSCG) announced officially on Tuesday that Nikola Pekovic, one of the best centers in the world at the best stage of his career, will not suit up for the national team in September's big tournament in Slovenia. Consequently, Pekovic will not team up with fellow big man Nikola Vucevic, the up-and-coming center of the Orlando Magic who finished the season as the second-best rebounder in the NBA, with 11.9 boards per game to go with his 13.1 points per night.

Small forward Janis Berzins turned heads in Estonia during the recent Sportland U20 European Championship with his sparkling all-round performances and coach Bagatskis decided to invite him to the senior national team's training camp. Berzins had averaged 15.4 points and 7.4 rebounds-per-game in the U20 European Champinship to earn a spot on the All Tournament Team and propel Latvia to the gold medal game, where they eventually fell to Italy. \"The inclusion of Janis is not a formality,\" Bagatskis clarified. \"I hope that he will create real competition at his position to everyone who may feel that that they achieved everything in life and in sport.

Marko Todorovic had an operation in his right hand at the end of the club season and is still undergoing rehabilitation, a situation that prompted rumours of him dropping out of the Montenegro squad ahead of EuroBasket 2013. \"I saw rumours circulating on the media that I would not play at EuroBasket in Slovenia,\" the 21-year-old big man said in an interview with pobjeda.me. \"However, I have no idea how this began, it's just not true. \"I am currently in Belgrade undergoing therapy and if all goes well, in about ten days I will re-join the team in Zlatibor (where Montenegro's training camp takes place).

Coach Bradley Dean has released veteran point guard Olivier Ilunga, shooting guard Martin Pahlmblad and 20-year-old Jonathan Person. The latter two had participated in Sweden's Qualification Round campaign last summer, where Pahlmblad averaged four points and 1.1 rebounds in seven games, while Person contributed one point and dished out three assists in the one game he featured in, against Luxembourg. Thomas Massamba and Kenny Grant, who were Dean's starting guard duo last summer, have meanwhile joined their team-mates in training camp.

On the contrary, the boss of BC Triumph who was made acting head coach just three days before the start of preparations for EuroBasket 2013, has now received the full backing of the executive committee of the Russian Basketball Federation (RBF) and will steer the national team into September's big event in Slovenia. The announcement that Karasev will continue as the head coach ends a period of uncertainty for Russia, that commenced when the RBF and Fotis Katsikaris, the Greek tactician who had been appointed at the role last winter, had a disagreement in late July and decided to not activate their contract.

While the tournament served mostly as a test event for EuroBasket and friendly games at such an early stage hardly provide a representative sample of a team's real potential, three of the participating sides - especially Slovenia - have a number of positives to take out of the three days in Celje, while Turkey have been left with plenty of food for thought. On Friday, Slovenia were excellent on defence during the first half, led Latvia 37-28 at the interval, and held on for a 71-67 win despite a strong finish by the Baltic side.

But the hosts turned up a notch their pace in the second half and their captain Boris Diaw paved the way to a 101-93 victory with an all-round display of 14 points on 6-for-7 shooting, seven assists and seven rebounds. Diaw got help from Nicolas Batum who had 14 points and six rebounds, Kim Tillie with 13 points and Joffrey Lauvergne, who chipped in with 11 points, while a discreet Tony Parker finished with 10 points and three assists. Sharp-shooting Petteri Koponen was in fantastic form for the Finns and collected a game-high 22 points and nine assists, while veteran Hanno M\u00f6tt\u00f6l\u00e4 finished with 17 points and four rebounds and Sasu Salin with Tuukka Kotti had 12 points apiece.

Now however the Czechs might be about to join the list of EuroBasket-bound teams that have suffered the blow of losing a key player to injury, as captain Petr Benda is very doubtful to play in the big event in Slovenia. The 31-year-old center had picked up an injury last February, while in action with Czech champions Nymburk. He finished the club season playing through the pain and undergoing conservative therapy, and was hoping to join the national team in preparations with the start of the second stage, on Wednesday.

Some key players on 'La Roja' however beg to differ. Point guard Ricky Rubio, first of all, made crystal clear on the day of the presentation of the Spanish squad to the media that the aim of the two-time European champions is to achieve a historic 'three-peat' at EuroBasket 2013, notwithstanding the absences of Pau Gasol, Juan Carlos Navarro, Felipe Reyes or Serge Ibaka. \"No one [of us] has said that we are not going to Slovenia for the gold medal,\" Rubio declared. \"The national team we have is of a great level [despite the absences].

Montenegro face some tough challenges in Group B, including Lithuania and Serbia, but Vucevic told fibaeurope.com he believes the country's talented team is ready for a successful EuroBasket campaign. \"I took some time off after the season was over, but I started working out again around May 28. I was home for about two weeks working out then I went back to Orlando, working out there with most of the guys that are playing NBA Summer League. Now I'm back home working out until I join the national team on 1st August.\" Read more here.\nJuly 10, 2013 - Turkey announce ambitious squad\nStars Hedo Turkoglu, Ersan Ilyasova and Omer Asik headline an impressive 20-strong preliminary squad for EuroBasket 2013 that the Turkish federation made public on Wednesday. The list of Turkey head coach Bogdan Tanjevic is an ambitious mix of old and new with the only big-name absence being that of Utah Jazz center Enes Kanter, which was however already announced in the spring.

A day after veteran Ronny Turiaf made public his decision to not follow Les Bleus to Slovenia this summer in an interview with L'Equipe, Collet himself revealed in the same newspaper that his first option as a reserve at the '5' spot, Rudy Gobert, will undergo surgery in a few days and will also miss the EuroBasket. The 21-year-old Gobert was selected by the Denver Nuggets with the 22nd overall pick in the NBA draft in June, but was traded immediately to the Utah Jazz. \"He has a major problem, he will be operated in his foot at the end of the Summer League [after 12 July], it was already scheduled,\" said Collet of the 2.13m center.

The now 32-year-old guard Sani Becirovic, who last suited up for the national team at the 2010 World Championship and played in the Iranian league this year, is also absent from the squad.

Savanovic, who had announced he would be unable to take part in preparations in an interview in mid-June, along with the other two star power forwards was submitted to an exam by the Serbian basketball federation's medical committee on Thursday. \"Following the examination and the diagnosis of the federation's doctors, Dusko Savanovic, Novica Velickovic and Zoran Erceg have been omitted from the list,\" Ivkovic himself announced.

The Serbian-born tactician however will still be able to count with a formidable frontcourt, as his squad includes the likes of Montepaschi Siena forward Viktor Sanikidze, who led the team in rebounds in last summer's EuroBasket Qualification Round, as well as center Giorgi Shermadini of Euroleague champions Olympiacos and forward/center Tornike Shengelia, who completed his rookie NBA season with the Brooklyn Nets.

Twenty years later, a surprising amount of details from that day are still vivid in the memory of Michael Koch, who was then the shooting guard of the German team. \"This is something you can never forget in your life, it's a once in a lifetime experience,\" the former Telekom Baskets Bonn coach told fibaeurope.com. \"I can still remember the final seconds of the game, when Christian Welp had the and-one play and he made the free throw for us to go up by one point.\" Read more here.\nJuly 1, 2013 - Bauermann trims Squad\nNew Polish head coach Dirk Bauermann has trimmed his squad for EuroBasket 2013 to 17 players who will report for camp on 23 July.

The four players initially named in the squad but have missed the first cut are Alexander Czyz (Acea Roma), Jakub Dloniak (Tarnobrzeg), Piotr Pamula (Asseco Prokom Gdynia) and Jakub Wojciechowski (PMS Torino). \"Selecting the first players is always difficult,\" said Bauermann on the Polish Basketball Federation website, continuing, \"We were in the United States, Italy and Spain.

Parker, who played at his first EuroBasket in 2011, is to make a seventh consecutive appearance in the show-piece event, an all-time record among French players. If France were to advance to the quarter-finals of the tournament in Slovenia and the San Antonio Spurs point guard features in each one of their First Round and Second Round games, he will enter the top ten on the list of players with the most games at EuroBasket in history. The late legend Kresimir Cosic, who played in nine EuroBasket tournaments with the former Yugoslavia (from 1967 to 1983) tops the list with 67 games.

On Saturday, Gasol dispersed doubts surrounding his participation at the upcoming big event by means of a laconic but unequivocal message. \"If [Spain head coach] Juan Orenga considers it appropriate, I will go to compete this summer together with my team-mates,\" the Memphis Grizzlies center tweeted. The message was received with immense relief among Spanish fans, who have been preoccupied about their team fielding an understrength frontcourt at the EuroBasket after Marc's older brother, the Los Angeles Lakers star Pau Gasol, had announced in May his unavailability for the tournament due to medical reasons.

The FC Barcelona Regal power forward got in touch with Slovenia head coach Bozidar Maljkovic and national team director Matej Avanzo to inform them that he would need to follow a two-month long rehabilitation process and would therefore be unable to play at the EuroBasket. Lorbek underwent arthroscopic surgery in both knees on Friday in Spain and while the operation was successful, doctors said that he could not resume training before late August, with the EuroBasket commencing on 4 September. The 29-year-old was submitted to the operation immediately after the end of the Spanish Liga Endesa Finals, where his team lost the league title to arch-rivals Real Madrid.

Speaking at a press conference in capital Sarajevo, the Croatian tactician brought back memories of his glorious playing days in the 1980's, when he exuded confidence every time he took to the court with Yugoslavia or with Cibona Zagreb. \"We are not going to Slovenia as outsiders,\" Petrovic stated. \"I believe that we will advance to the second round. \"We have selected 16 players in the preliminary squad, which includes six or seven youngsters, and the rest are at their peak, playing at top level. \"Our team can play well on both ends of the floor, on offence and defence.\" Read more here.\nJune 20, 2013 - Spanoulis heads Greek preliminary squad\nNewly-appointed Greece head coach Andrea Trinchieri could be spoiled for choice in the run-up to September's EuroBasket, after naming on Thursday an 18-strong preliminary squad of remarkable depth. Guard Vassilis Spanoulis, who led Olympiacos Pireaus to back-to-back Turkish Airlines Euroleague trophies in London last May headlines the list, which also features small forward Kostas Papanikolaou and a further four Olympiacos players. Greece captain Nikos Zisis and sharp-shooter Kostas Vasileiadis who reached the Eurocup Final with Uxue Bilbao, are other main options in the backcourt along with point guard Nick Calathes, who conquered that competition with Russian side Lokomotiv Kuban.

As expected, superstar Dirk Nowitzki, who made his last bow with the national team at EuroBasket 2011, is not included on the list. Likewise, guard Steffen Hamann, who announced his retirement from international duty earlier in June and power forward Tim Ohlbrecht, who stated he would not play for the national team this summer, are also not part of Menz's plans for the upcoming EuroBasket. A minor surprise however is the absence of power forward Jan-Hendrik Jagla who had spent every summer in a Germany jersey uninterruptedly since the World Championship 2006, having made his debut as a senior international in 2005.

This dream scenario is very close to turning into reality for the small Balkan country, as former Partizan, Panathinaikos and Minnesota Timberwolves center Nikola Pekovic and Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic are included in the 21-strong preliminary squad for September's EuroBasket that head coach Luka Pavicevic announced on Monday. Pekovic however will most likely not be present on the first day of training camp in late July and will join the team at a later stage.

Savanovic, who played through the pain in the final stretch of the club season with Anadolu Efes, was included in the preliminary squad for September's EuroBasket that coach Dusan Ivkovic had announced on 6 June. \"I thought I could play, that it would be enough to get some rest and then I would grind my teeth and make it, but the people in white coats [the doctors] were merciless,\" Savanovic explained to Serbian newspaper Sportski Zurnal. \"Already at the end of the season things did not look so good but I was waiting to undergo a detailed examination.

Toronto Raptors big man Andrea Bargnani and shooting guard Marco Belinelli, who competed this season with the Chicago Bulls, are headlining the list after being absent from last summer's Qualification Round, where Italy finished with a perfect 8-0 record. While Bargnani recently stated that he is looking forward to rejoining the national team, Belinelli, who is now a free agent in the NBA, has said that ideally he would prefer his contractual situation to be clarified before deciding whether he will play for the Azzurri at the EuroBasket. Meanwhile Italy's third big star, small forward Danilo Gallinari of the Denver Nuggets, is not on the list as he just underwent a second operation in the United States to repair the torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee and is expected to return to action late into the new season.

Partizan head coach Dusko Vujosevic immediately rushed on the court to console his player and his worried reaction left little doubt that the injury was visibly serious. Bertans underwent medical tests in a clinic in Novi Sad on Thursday which confirmed the worst possible scenario.

Biedrins is still only 27 years old and Janicenoks just turned 30 in March but they will be among the veterans at Latvia's training camp, alongside point guard Edgars Jeromanovs and after shooting guard Janis Blums who, at 31, is the oldest player in the preliminary squad.

It's not a specific moment we can all buy into or perceive in the same way as the players and staff on the squad that surprised everyone with their historical run to the semi-finals of EuroBasket 2011. But it's an experience that every athlete aspires to every day of their career and only a select few get to taste it in their lives. \"After this great chemistry we had between us as a team in Lithuania, which was incredible, it was the welcoming of our fans,\" Ilievski explains, trying to define the feeling to fibaeurope.com. \"There were 100,000 people in [our capital city] Skopje waiting for us upon our return. \"They were waiting for hours at the airport, on the highway, they were everywhere along a 25 km route as we travelled on the bus to the city.

Less than a week after announcing an 18-strong preliminary roster for EuroBasket 2013, Russia head coach Fotis Katsikaris took the decision to add Savrasenko, who turns 34 in February and last played for the national team in 2008, to his squad. The Greek tactician wanted to add more size to his frontcourt and few choices could help in that direction more than the 2.17m frame of the experienced Savrasenko, who had a good season coming off the bench for Eurocup winners Lokomotiv Kuban. \"We have decided to invite Alexey Savrasenko for several reasons,\" Katsikaris said. \"As you know, Sasha Kaun will not be able to play for the national team this year, so Alex will help us to reduce the deficit of big men.

Bargnani, who was drafted in the NBA by Toronto with the first overall pick in 2006, averaged 12.7 points and 3.7 rebounds per game this season, as the Canadian franchise failed to come anywhere close to the play-off spots, once again.

Captain Nenad Krstic headlines the list which includes all of Serbia's brightest stars, including Anadolu Efes power forward Dusko Savanovic, who struggled with a back problem during the final stretch of the club season. The real surprise though is the return of another star forward, Novica Velickovic, to the national team mix.

Speaking at a press conference in Moscow, the Greek tactician admitted that working with a roster that does not include these three players will be a 'challenge' but he also added that he is 'used to working hard and fight.' Katsikaris and Russian Federation president Alexander Krasnenkov pointed out instead that the upcoming EuroBasket will provide a chance to the country's younger players to step forward. \"Our main goal is to build a strong team,\" Katsikaris said, in a clear indication that his primary focus at this stage is the work that will be done with the players during preparations.

The 24-year-old center explained that he underwent arthroscopic surgery last summer, when he missed out on Greece's campaign at the Pre-Olympic tournament in Venezuela. \"The rehabilitation process didn't give me enough time to work out correctly and strengthen my feet and despite the good season I had this year, I could not take advantage of my ability to score far from the basket,\" he said. \"I only moved inside the paint and still did not get the ball so much to play with my back to the basket.

        "raw_content": "Staring at a blank page under the title \u2018My Story\u2019 is just about the scariest blank page I've ever seen. It\u2019s not that I have nothing to write, it\u2019s just that out of all of the things there are to say and explain, how does one selectively pick the right elements to give the appropriate impressions without over-sharing or giving away too much to read into the books?\nHere are some things which should invoke a total lack of surprise given the content of \u2018Launch\u2019:\nI am from British Columbia, Canada. I grew up in the Greater Vancouver Area, but on the other side of the river as I sometimes say, meaning the outer suburbs. I was born and grew up in Richmond, and then later spent many years in the Surrey/North Delta area before coming to the Okanagan Valley to go to school. I attended Okanagan College where I took all of my prerequisite courses to enter the science program, and due to meandering interests essentially wound up taking every first year science course they offered.\nMy interests gravitated strongly towards psychology and philosophy though, and after transferring to the University of British Columbia \u2013 Okanagan, I focused on obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in Psychology and a minor in Philosophy, but with a very strong general sciences background. I'd found that I wasn't the kind of person who could ever be happy with the focused diligence required to actually do science, but the experience of learning about the products of science ignited in me a strong passion for knowing and understanding in general.\nOut of a mind swirling with the ideas of science, space, psychology, and philosophy, New Horizons was born.\nI was raised in a Mormon home, but it didn't stick. I\u2019m not one of those people who claim that they never believed any of it right from the start though, I certainly did. As described in my books, the ideas of religion were presented to me as facts of the world. Water is wet, God exists, we live on Williams road, you have an immortal soul. I was never given the opportunity to partition facts and dogma into different domains of knowledge. It was all the same to me.\nAs I grew up, I never learned how to create that partition. I was unable to have different knowledge folders for real knowledge and religious knowledge. I was unable to create a bifurcated worldview. So, when I noticed contradictions I concerned myself with them. My earliest memory of such a case was in elementary school. It came up that I had a perception of people living longer in the past because I remembered hearing about bible figures who had lived to be a thousand years old. I remember a teacher staring at me blankly and informing me that in fact people today lived much longer than they were ever able to in the past. I logged the error.\nThis is how the next couple decades went for me. It didn't take me long to realize that a strict literal perspective on religious teachings was impractical due to the accumulated errors between doctrinal information and factual information, and not long afterwards I realized that all religious institutions were poor places to turn for the truth. I was certain that it mattered though, that what the truth was really mattered. It was important for me to find out what life and the universe was all about, where it all came from, and what made it all go. As I kept investigating, I kept incorporating more and more information from more and more sources. I had yet to discover skepticism, so I accumulated beliefs far more rapidly than I was able or inclined to remove any. As a result I had this comically over bloated worldview which included everything from modern cosmology to astrology, and I had these elaborate astrological reincarnation narratives to make it all fit together in my head. I imagined each astrological sign to be something like a level in a video game that you had to keep playing until you got it \u2018right\u2019, before you could move onto the next sign level, or... whatever. It got pretty silly, and of course since I was still the centre of all creation in my own mind , I was naturally at the end of this process, and had now come back to be a prophet, or... something. It was really quite a mess.\nIt was an unstable structure, and when it could no longer support itself, it all came crashing down. The trigger, was a conspiracy theory movie called 'Zeitgeist'.\nMy skeptically minded friends who are aware of the movie laugh when I tell them this, but like I said, it was only the trigger. I was incredibly weed high, and my friend and I for some reason got to watching this movie. The second and third parts are the really conspiratorial bits, but the first part opened my mind to a fundamental reality which I was only then finally ready and willing to see. Essentially, it exposed me for the first time to the blatantly pagan origins of Christianity (including all of the astronomical and astrological symbolism in the bible), and the other assorted pre-Christian mythological elements which were incorporated into the Jesus narrative. For the first time, religion in general was presented to me as a fiction developed and employed as a system of control, as a way to influence the behaviour of societies. At the end of this first section, it showed the World Trade Center towers collapsing, and eluded some connection. The next segment of the movie went into standard 9/11 conspiracy theory about the attacks being a false flag operation to create a public license to initiate wars of aggression in the Middle East, and for about two weeks I completely bought into all of it hook, line, and sinker. The third section of the movie was about the money system, and how it\u2019s all rigged and fake, all mixed with very unsophisticated new age metaphysics.\nWhen the towers fell on the screen before all that though, behind my eyes my entire epistemology was collapsing. My already shaky world view crashed down and was reduced to rubble. This is why for a brief time I was a conspiracy theorist. In the vacuum, I had no basis to believe or disbelieve anything. I was completely epistemologically unbound, which I\u2019m sure was the aim of the movie. I refer to these event in the narrative of my life as the Zeitgeist Incident, and in many ways I separate my life into the time before it happened, and the time after. For years the world view I'd inherited from my childhood had been progressively weakened until that night the decrepit structure finally toppled over.\nAs I said, for a time I was epistemologically rudderless, but as I fell ever deeper down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole, I finally got down to things that gave me serious pause, namely alien involvement. I had to ask myself how I could believe in anything now. By what measure could I now separate things into true, and untrue piles. In researching that question, I stumbled upon scientific skepticism. I picked up my first issue of Skeptic Magazine, and I began a new phase of my life. That day I became a skeptic.\nI read some Michael Shermer books, and I watched Carl Sagan\u2019s Cosmos and James Burke's Connections. I read Dawkins and Dennett; for a time I was voracious. I discovered an impossibly inspiring narrative, the stunning history of humanity, of life, and of our Solar System. I discovered the grand cosmic narrative which it is all a part of. On my own I learned everything I could about history, which was at least as much as I was learning about psychology and philosophy in classes at school. Out of the ruins of my previous world view, I built a new scaffolding in space and time, from the sub-atomic to the cosmic, and from the big bang to the present and into the future. I discovered the beautiful grand cosmic narrative which methodical science and skepticism had revealed.\nThat in a very real way, is what ultimately led to the New Horizon series. Tracing all of those lines form the beginning to the present, I couldn't help but speculate about where those lines might continue on into the future. New Horizons is what I foresee as one possible future for humanity. It is certainly not the most likely future, nor may it even be a probable one, but I stand by my assertion that it is a possible one. It is the future available to us, if as a species and as a global society we can demonstrate that we are worthy of it.\nIt is the fate available to us, if we can deserve it.",

At the meeting on 26th May, the Council\u2019s Executive gave the green light to begin discussions with commercial partners to run the Borough\u2019s libraries.\nCllr Prue Bray (Leader of Wokingham Liberal Democrats) said: \u2018I am appalled that the Executive have decided to begin talks with commercial partners to run the Borough\u2019s library services. Libraries are a valuable community resource that must be run for the benefit of communities not profit.\n\u2018Library services are being privatised for ideological reasons. They could be the first in a long line of services that could be outsourced by the Conservative council. History tells us that outsourcing leads to cuts. I can only hope this will not mean that libraries in the Borough will close.\n\u2018I am deeply concerned that the Executive have taken this decision without consulting anyone, with no detailed business case, and little in the way of background papers being made available to the public. I am sure there will be a great deal of opposition to this idea.\u2019",

Slowly but surely the city is being squeezed and the real fear is that this is merely a precursor to an onslaught that will lead to widespread loss of life.\n\u201cAl-Hudaydah cannot be allowed to become a graveyard. There is still time to stop this destruction,\u201d he said, noting that \u201cof our biggest fears is an outbreak of cholera. Al-Hudaydah was a cholera hot spot last year and a repeat would be devastating for the people there.\u201d\nMoreover, he said: \u201cThe backers of this war \u2013 including those in Western capitals \u2013 need to stop fueling the conflict and put maximum pressure on all sides of this war to agree an immediate ceasefire. Failure to act now will leave them culpable.\u201d\nThe report detailed: \u201cThe city\u2019s streets are empty and many shops, bakeries and markets have closed, according to Oxfam contacts in the city. People have been panic buying, while food is scarce. Essential items such as flour \u2013 the main staple \u2013 vegetable oil and cooking gas are in short supply. Prices have increased with a sack of rice up 350 per cent, wheat up 50 per cent and cooking oil up by 40 per cent. At the same time, many families\u2019 incomes have been hit by the closure of dozens of factories and businesses.\nAl-Hudaydah Governorate is one of the worst affected areas of Yemen with a quarter of children suffering from malnutrition. Last year it was just one step away from famine, with nearly 800,000 suffering from severe hunger and the situation remains desperate.\nWater is in short supply. Parts of the city\u2019s water supply and sewage system have been cut due to the digging of defensive positions. This raises the threat of cholera as people are forced to start using unprotected shallow wells or surface water. Al-Hudaydah was hit hard by last year\u2019s cholera outbreak which was the world\u2019s largest since records began.\nAt least 35,000 people have been forced to flee their homes due to the fighting around the southern outskirts of Al-Hudaydah. They have settled in parts of the city further away from the fighting and many have sheltered in schools. Getting aid into the city is already challenging and will be increasingly difficult if fighting intensifies.\nSource : Oxfam\nPrevious articleArmy foils infiltration of Saudi-paid mercenaries off Najran\nNext articleAustrian federal government will pay \u201c1\u201d million Euros in aid for Yemen",

        "title": "Zombies And Toys: Drew Falchetta - Featured Artist",
        "raw_content": "Drew Falchetta - Featured Artist\nDrew Falchetta is one of my favorite artists. The first painting of his I stumbled upon had nothing to do with zombies but fortunately for us he does paint them! Drew is from New Jersey but now lives in the state that gave birth to the modern zombie, Pennsylvania. Drew works with watercolors on 300lb Arches watercolor paper using a Rapidograph pen and ink for the outline.\nDrew\u2019s first introduction to zombies was the SNES/SEGA game, Zombies Ate My Neighbors. \u201cIn fact, I just did a painting of this game for a group show I was in with the Autumn Society of Philadelphia that was video game themed.\u201d The impact of this first exposure to zombies hit him later, however. \u201cAs I got older, I could pick up on the social commentary in the zombie movies.\u201d\nSo why paint zombies? \u201cIt\u2019s fun. Simple as that. To draw the undead is sometimes more fun than the living. Plus I get to draw them getting their heads blown off and it\u2019s acceptable and not crude or disrespectful.\u201d Makes sense to me!\nFor inspiration, Drew remains open to anything around him. \u201cUsually my ideas come from my imagination. But I tend to look at other paintings for ideas about composition and colors.\u201d Artist inspiration comes from Gris Grimly, Edward Gorey, Shel Silverstein, Dr. Seuss, Alfons Mucha, and Ralph Steadman to name a few. \u201cI try to \u2018borrow\u2019 ideas and small details, but never take or copy. I think some artists fail to do that.\u201d\nAnother one of my favorite painting by Drew is Nuns vs Zombies. So what was the thought process and meaning behind that creation? \u201cHaha. Well, I was asked to be a part of a group show in San Francisco run by Creep Machine. The theme was B horror movies. We were to do a painting of a favorite B horror movie or make one up; So I made my own. I knew I wanted to do zombies, but I wanted to make it really ridiculous.\u201d After researching grindhouse movies and looking for common themes he found one\u2026nuns. \u201cAnd then I knew\u2026 nuns killing zombies. Because the painting was a success, I am going to turn it into a picture book called The Second Coming. Stay tuned for that.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s your favorite zombie films/books and why? \u201cShaun of the Dead. I know it\u2019s a comedy, but it\u2019s got everything: blood, gore, panic, isolation, death, and mixes it all with humor. It\u2019s really paying homage to the zombie/horror genre. A really great book series about zombies is an American manga called I Love Halloween. The artwork is done by Benjamin Roman. Great work!\u201d\nDrew! You\u2019ve been bitten! Do you want me to walk away or shoot you? \u201cBelieve it or not, I have often thought of this. I\u2019d love to live as a zombie, but I\u2019m not sure youd be able to experience it. I mean, they are dead. Would you even notice that you were a zombie? However, I would not want to hurt anyone, so I guess just shoot me. But maybe let me walk around first to get a feel for it.\u201d\nDrew is currently illustrating a book his brother wrote. The book is a type of picture book for young adults, teens, and adults. He will also be featured as part of a group show in Philadelphia whose theme will be Dia de los Muertos. So, if you\u2019re in the area, keep an eye open and try to attend. You can also look forward to a solo show of all of Drew\u2019s miniature paintings. More info about Drew can be found on his website and MySpace pages.\nLabels: art, Drew Falchetta",

        "raw_content": "Rotational power and hitting speed in baseball \u2013 a case study\nGhelem, A. Eriksrud O. 1,2\nThrowing and hitting are mechanically similar movements where the biomechanics of throwing has been studied more extensively than for hitting. Due to this similarity, and that more studies have been conducted on throwing, the biomechanics of throwing will be used to describe the sequential transfer of force and energy between the different segments.\nIn throwing there is a coupling of joint motions, or coordination, where there is a distinct proximal to distal sequence of joint rotations from the lower extremity through the trunk and to the upper extremity (Atwater, 1979; Hirashima, Kudo, Watarai, & Ohtsuki, 2007; Liu, Leigh, & Yu, 2010; Putnam, 1993; Wight, Richards, & Hall, 2004). The sum of these different joint rotations allows the body to place the hand in an optimal starting position, as well as executing the throw in an efficient manner (Hirashima et al., 2007; Wight et al., 2004). Ball velocity is therefore dependent on an effective segmental transfer of force and energy from the lower extremities through the trunk to the upper extremity (Atwater, 1979; Toyoshima, 1974).\nThese sequential motions are also reflected in a sequential onset of muscle activation from the trunk to the shoulder and elbow muscles in throwing (Hirashima, Kadota, Sakurai, Kudo, & Ohtsuki, 2002) and hitting (Shaffer, Jobe, Pink, & Perry, 1993). Hitting the ball in baseball is also largely based upon rotational movement in the transverse plane throughout the body (Escamilla et al., 2009). Consequently, specific rotational tests of force, speed and power should be used when testing baseball players for the physical factors important to hitting, however the authors were unable to find such tests used when systematically searching PubMed. On the contrary, traditional tests such as bench press (Miyaguchi & Demura, 2012) have been used to test baseball players for hitting performance.\nBased upon the principle of specificity, there would be a great benefit to implement rotational tests of force, speed and power when testing baseball players for the physical factors important to hitting performance. The purpose of this case study is to determine the effect of rotational force and power training on hitting speed in baseball.\nBJ (97kg, 185cm) used to be a professional baseball player that has competed both nationally and internationally. He has remained active in his sport for more than twenty years. Now at the age of 37 BJ wants to see if he could beat his personal best in hitting speed with the help of new technology and an even more systematic approach to training.\nForce, speed and power was tested in the following exercises; squat jump, rotation to the right from the left foot and rotation to the left from the right foot. All tests were done in 1080 Quantum. The robotic technology embedded in 1080 Quantum allows for the valid and reliable testing of not only vertical, but also horizontal, generation of force, speed and power. Ball speed from a hitting tee with a wood bat was measured to 137 km/h or 85 mph (stalkerradar, www.stalkerradar.com). See table 1 for details on the other tests.\nBJ did the following exercises once a week for 4 months; rotational pulls right and left, diagonal posterior to superior pulls with both right and left hand, anterior and inferior push with both right and left hand, single leg squats bilateral and left and right lunges. 1080 Quantum was used for all the strength and power training. Initially the concentric speed limit was set low for all exercises to focus on strengthening through full range of motion. 1080 Quantum has an isokinetic function when the concentric speed is set low. The progression was to gradually increase the speed limit to no speed limit at all with low loads (10-30% of body weight). All exercises were done 5 repetitions and 3 sets.\nThere is a significant improvement in ball speed from a hitting tee, increasing by 5.8% to 145 km/h or 89 mph. Improvements in the rotational power tests ranged from 26-52%. It is interesting to note that there is a decrease of 9% in vertical power. Summary of all results presented in Table 2. Percentage change for each parameter from initial examination is identified in parenthesis.\nThere is a great improvement in rotational power that coincides with an increase in ball speed from a peg. All rotational power measures showed an increase after training, but vertical power did not. This is an indication that horizontal training, specifically rotational, should receive a greater focus if the goal is to improve power in batting.\nPower and strength of upper body exercises have been found to be important in generating bat swing speed (Miyaguchi & Demura, 2012). One study found bench press strength and power to be important. These measures were not normalize to body weight in the analysis, and the average swing bat speed in this study was found to be 123 km\u22c5h-1 with a standard deviation of 7,9 km\u22c5h-1 (Miyaguchi & Demura, 2012). This means that BJ upon conclusion of the training program is at least in the upper 2,5% of such a group of athletes.\nIt seems that the bench press is a common measure of strength and power in baseball (Miyaguchi & Demura, 2012; Szymanski et al., 2010). This test lacks construct validity from a specificity principle based upon movement, since the test neither reflects the asymmetrical nature of arm and hand movement nor trunk rotation. However, other researches have integrated a rotational test, rotational medicine ball throw, into a testing battery to be used in baseball (Kohmura, Aoki, Yoshigi, Sakuraba, & Yanagiya, 2008).\nThe tests we employed are based upon rotational movement from the right and the left foot. These tests with an accurate measure of force, speed and power in the 1080 Quantum, might be a better and more specific tool to be employed to developing and testing in baseball for hitting performance.\nRotational force and power training in 1080 Quantum had a positive effect on ball speed from a peg in a baseball player.\nAtwater, A.

        "raw_content": "LONG LIVE THE LEGION: Back to the Future With PAUL LEVITZ\nHome \u00bb COMICS HISTORY \u00bb LONG LIVE THE LEGION: Back to the Future With PAUL LEVITZ\nTalking the Legion with one of its greatest writers.\nUPDATED: 10/21/17: Happy 61st birthday, Paul Levitz! Now, typically we do a 13 COVERS tribute around here but that\u2019s usually more of an artist\u2019s thing. In this case, I wanted to re-present this interview about the Legion, which is probably the title Levitz is most associated with as a writer. So if you haven\u2019t read this, check it out. And if you have, enjoy it again!\nI\u2019m not a Legion fan but my friend Van Sias is. I\u2019ve known Van for years and when he pitched me a piece about the Legion of Super-Heroes, I told him to have at it. Maybe I\u2019d learn something. Van\u2019s a really enthusiastic guy so I was more than happy when he got to live out a dream and talk to Levitz about the Legion\u2019s legacy. \u2014 Dan\nI have a confession (or two or three) to make:\n1. As a 7-year-old way back in 1980, I would make my own Bouncing Boy costume, which consisted of stuffing my pajamas with pillows.\n2. Sometimes, to help keep the old noodle sharp, I\u2019ll quiz myself with questions like, \u201cWhat planet is Shrinking Violet from?\u201d or \u201cWho died first, Ferro Lad or Chemical King?\u201d\n3. I know the alter egos of everyone to ever don a flight ring, no small feat considering you\u2019re dealing with alien names and all.\nIn other words, I\u2019m a pretty serious old-school Legion of Super-Heroes fan. I throw in \u201cold school\u201d as a qualifier because I haven\u2019t really dabbled much in the reboots. I did give the \u201cThree-boot\u201d a shot, and it was intriguing, but as far as \u201c5 Years Later\u201d or \u201cZero Hour,\u201d I pretty much stayed away from all that. Even \u201cThe Lightning Saga\u201d storyline in Justice League of America a few years ago didn\u2019t really do it for me.\nAnyway, a joy for me the past few years has been to pick up the Showcase black-and-white reprint books, putting all the old stories right in my hands. Recently, while on vacation, I stopped in a comic book shop and picked up a volume of the Legion. I went to the register to pay and the shop owner ringing me up said something to one of his employees with an incredulous tone to his voice:\n\u201cWhoa, we have a Legion fan here!\u201d\nAnd I thought to myself, \u201cHmm, where is he going with this?\u201d\nThen the other guy replied, \u201cHe\u2019s like the only one!\u201d\nThe Legion is awesome! I know the team\u2019s not everyone\u2019s cup of tea \u2014 one of my best friends and fellow comic-book readers constantly gives me grief about my fandom \u2014 but why?\nTo gain some insight on that, I naturally turned to 13th Dimension, which, in turn, connected me with one of the pre-eminent Legion writers, Paul Levitz. What follows is a conversation that I found to be one of the most thrilling comic-book experiences in my life:\nVan Sias: What brought you to writing about the Legion? I know you were writing about the JSA in the late \u201970s.\nPaul Levitz: Jim Shooter was writing it regularly at that point and he left DC to go to Marvel for a staff job, so the assignment came open. I was a Legion fan since childhood, and I think I would\u2019ve killed anybody in the office who had gotten in my path of doing it! So I charged down the hall to Denny [O\u2019Neil] who was editing it at the time and Denny was not particularly familiar with the Legion. He hadn\u2019t been a reader over the years; it hadn\u2019t been something he loved. So he wanted to have a writer on it who knew the material. I fit that bill and I got away with getting the assignment.\nVan: Did you envision writing the title as long as you did?\nPaul: I didn\u2019t stick with it that many years the first time out. I was on it about two years. I was doing a lot of fill-ins, because I was young; I had overcommitted myself. I disappointed myself in a lot of ways in that stretch.\nWe also had enormous difficulty keeping a regular artist on the book at that point. [Jim] Sherman was trying to do it, but it was a little too much of a commitment at that stage in his career and that made it more challenging, as well. When I was done, I figured, \u201cWell, you got your chance to do this thing you love; you did a couple of decent things, but overall, you did a relatively unimpressive job \u2014 at least a relatively forgettable job \u2014 and that\u2019s it. On to the next things you do in life. End of story.\u201d\nI ended up back on the Legion, and I was determined in going back to it that if I was going to do it again, I wasn\u2019t going to mess up this time. I ended up staying \u2014 one way of counting it \u2014 basically 100 consecutive issues and I was very proud of that. That was very rare in those days. I went on the series before there were even royalties in mainstream comics and without royalties, there wasn\u2019t really any economic incentive to stay on these books for any great length of time. There had been some people who had really long runs, but it was fairly rare to get 100 issues done, and I was probably one of the half-dozen or so people who had done that at DC at that point. And I was very proud of that.\nVan: When you\u2019re talking about staying on a book for 100 issues, a lot can happen over that time, and it seems like the Legion has gone through a lot over its history. Do you think, perhaps, it\u2019s been \u201ctoo much\u201d? Especially when it comes to retaining a fan base?\nPaul: Well, I guess the objective answer to it is there isn\u2019t a regular Legion title these days. So, one way or another we disappointed the readers. I think there was a fairly unimpressed reaction to the work I did coming back on the series about four or five years ago. I certainly contributed to its failings. It\u2019s hard to keep things around forever.\nWhether the Legion is simply a concept that has outlived its time or whether it just needs someone to execute it in a new and wonderful way, you could argue either side of it.\nI\u2019d like to believe that somebody will step up in the next few years, do a new run of it. And people will remember that, love that and mine will fade into history. But that\u2019s fine.\nVan: Well, we are getting closer to the 31st century\u2026\nPaul: Yeah, I don\u2019t think I\u2019m gonna make it to that one!\nVan: Looking back through the team\u2019s history, the whole concept of these teenage superheroes in the 30th century, just screams innovation.\nPaul: There was a lot that was wonderful about it. The vision of the future, the comparative diversity , even if it wasn\u2019t the realistic racial diversity, at least it was a more diverse base of characters.\nVan: Yes, like Chameleon Boy dealing with prejudice and even suspicions on how his teammates felt about him.\nPaul: Yeah, and you had female characters who were very strong characters in leadership roles, in 1963, 1964, back when it was still normal to run ads that say \u201cmen only\u201d in the newspaper.\nThere were a lot of books that the early writers Jerry Siegel, Ed Hamilton did that you look back on it and say, \u201cThere\u2019s a lot here that\u2019s interesting and progressive for the time.\u201d Doesn\u2019t guarantee that people are still interested 60 years later, but it held up for a very long time.\nVan: Do you have a favorite storyline that you\u2019ve written? Personally, my favorite is the Legion of Super-Villains storyline from Vol. 3. I loved the idea of a bigger and badder super-villain team. I still remember that panel where they\u2019re all gathered, and I was like, \u201cGeez, that\u2019s everybody!\u201d\nPaul: That was certainly one of the better stories we\u2019ve done, one of the better-executed ones. I really enjoyed doing the Sensor Girl story. That was a really interesting mystery. And one of my personal favorites was a four-parter, \u201cThe Universo Project.\u201d And of course, \u201cThe Great Darkness Saga\u201d is the one the readers have decided is the best and I\u2019ve gotta defer to them.\nVan: Do you have a favorite character?\nPaul: It depends on who I was screwing up at the moment. I\u2019d get involved with whatever character I was having fun with at the time.\nVan: What kind of impact do you think the Legion stories have had on comic-book reading and writing?\nPaul: Well, I think there\u2019s a long stretch I\u2019m proud of in the 1980s, where it was one of DC\u2019s most commercial books. A lot of people came in on it. [Recently] I was looking on different retailers\u2019 sites, and I caught sight of a store I wasn\u2019t familiar with, and in the \u201cabout us\u201d section, the store owners said they came into comics in the \u201980s on Marv Wolfman and George Perez\u2019s Teen Titans and all of Keith Giffen\u2019s Legion and that\u2019s what made us fall in love with comics and why we\u2019re here.\nSo if there\u2019s a comic-book shop somewhere in the U.S. because the Legion was doing its magic, that\u2019s part of the answer. When you have well-remembered stories, you can\u2019t measure what the impact of what those stories are.\nPeople are still buying \u201cThe Darkness Saga\u201d 30-something years after it was published. Back then there was no such thing as collected editions from any major comics publisher. There was no reason to believe you\u2019d see that material again. And here it is, it\u2019s still in print, still available. That\u2019s part of the impact of it. We told a couple of stories people still care about.\nVan: Yeah, I saw it in my local library a couple of years ago.\nPaul: That\u2019s cool.\nVan: Yeah, that is. I hope some kids go through it or even some people who didn\u2019t check it out years ago could grab it. Do you feel with the team there\u2019s been some negative perception? Who doesn\u2019t like the Legion?\nPaul: Well, it\u2019s not the flavor of the day today, but that\u2019s fine. It was a couple of times in its history: when I was a kid and the Legion was in Adventure Comics, and it was in the day when I was writing it a second time.\nAnd I hope it will be again.\n(UPDATED 10/21/16: With Saturn Girl\u2019s appearance this week in Batman #9 (of all places), I think you can start breaking out those flight rings \u2026 \u2014 Dan)\nLong time Legion fan waiting for their comeback-until then I am not reading comics:(\nI\u2019m definitely ready for the Legion to be re-invigorated! I truly feel the concept is as fresh as it\u2019s ever been, and there\u2019s absolutely no reason it can\u2019t be successful again. There are challenges, for sure. But it is worthy of readers checking out the classic material as well as a current take on it.\nI hear you Steve, the Legion got me into Comics and with it being absent in the shops my enthusiasm for the medium is limited to Back Issues. Long Live The Legion!\nMichael Colford\nSo nice to hear that the Universo Project was one of his favorite storylines. It\u2019s definitely my favorite Legion storyline ever!\nPaul is so modest, his Legion with Keith and Steve and Greg and the other talented creators was the benchmark of superhero comics quality for the longest time.\nThe Legion was my favorite comic group of my childhood. It was the first and perhsps only series that I bought almost all the back issues for.\nLevitz\u2019s was perhaps the greatest Legion writer. I only wish he would have continued writing the series.",

        "raw_content": "Japanese Currency, part of an army payroll found by Mr. Evarelli on Biak, New Guinea.\n\"I'm with the air force, not the infantry!!\"\nAfter forming the 432nd Fighter Squadron in the year 1943, the men of our group left on a ship from Amberly Field, Australia, heading towards Port Moresby, in New Guinea. When we arrived off the shore of Port Moresby, we got into an LCI, or Landing Craft. At that time, it was mid afternoon. The man driving the LCI told us all to make sure to duck down for the landing. He also said to make sure we were wearing our helmets, and that we were carrying our guns. We approached the sandy, golden beach, with coconut trees, and extremely thick shrubbery leading to the jungle. We could hear many loud, screaming voices, which we could not understand. We assumed it was the Japanese, and that we were in an invasion. I was trembling with fear, and I remember saying to a buddy standing next to me, \" Hey, we are in the air force, not the infantry!!\". We finally landed, and the front of the dull gray LCI dropped open for us to get out. Much to our surprise, we saw an estimated amount of 30-50 natives spread out across the beach. They were yelling loudly at us, waving their arms. It was their way of greeting us to their land. I asked a friend named Murray where the Japanese were, and I was told that they were about 20 miles inland. We passed by the natives, to load trucks to our destination of Dobodura Air Strip.\nClose Call at Dobodura Air Strip\nWhile at Dobodura Air Strip, we were bombed and strafed by the Japanese at least 2-3 times per week. I assumed that they had an Air Strip on the other side of the mountain towards the East, where the sun rose each morning at about 5:00 AM. I was crossing the strip to get to a P38 that I was assigned to work on that day. I was walking through the middle of the olive green, metal air strip, just as the sun was rising that day. I saw four of my buddies to the side of me hiding in shrubbery, farther to the side of the Air Strip. They waved to me to lay down, and were yelling to me to lay also. I followed their directions immediately. Right after I laid down on the Air Strip, something happened that was of great surprise to me. A Japanese Mitsubishi Zero, with it's easily visible Rising Sun design painted on it, was shooting at me. The shooting lasted less than 30 seconds, but bullets had landed 2-3 feet on both sides of me. I got up and ran towards my four friends on the side after the zero had passed overhead. As I was running, I noticed that my knees were shaking. I felt so scared, yet happy to have come out alive, all at the same time. I thanked them with much gratitude, once I reached them. They told me that I was extremely lucky that I didn't get hit, or even killed. I knew that this was very true, and I was ever so grateful.\nPiss Call Charlie: A Pilot's Fantasy\nOn the East side of Dobodura, about 10 miles or so, stood a mountain. This mountain could have been 8 miles high. Every single morning, we were strafed by a Mitsubishi Zero at around 5:00 AM. ( around sunrise ) It aimed at our planes, and also aimed at us. It was a big nuisance, and we called it Piss Call Charlie. One day, a pilot was fed up with this particular plane. He decided that he would shoot that zero, and stop it for good. I believe this pilot was Joe Forster. So, bright and early at 4:30 in the morning, he took off in one of our P38's. It was a shiny, silver plane, which had yellow propeller noses. He bravely circled the skies above us, waiting for the Zero to arrive. We could see our P38 chasing the Japanese Zero. The P38's guns were rapidly blasting at the Zero. They passed the Air Strip, and began to climb. Our pilot got a direct hit at it, and put an end to all of the future \"Charlies\".\nStories as told by: Hugo Evarelli,\n** Hydraulic Specialist **",

        "raw_content": "By Flow Drinks27. March 2018 No Comments\nIs your sugar-free sports drink doing you more harm than good? Are you trading sugar for something much more dangerous? All artificial sweeteners are hiding the bitter truth about their health effects, but beware of this one particularly: aspartame.\nAspartame (L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanyl-methyl ester) is an artificial sweetener used as a sugar substitute. Aspartame consists of aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and methanol; all of these three can harm our body in the ways that will be discussed later in this text. Aspartame was accidentally discovered in 1965 during an anti-ulcer drug development in G.D. Searle pharmaceutical company. FDA approved the use of aspartame in carbonated beverages in 1983, although some health authorities warned about its potential dangers and stopped the initial approval in 1974. Aspartame is about 200 times sweeter than sucrose and has negligible caloric value, which makes it an attractive sugar substitute.\nAspartame in sports drinks\nAspartame is widely used in the beverage industry. As people are becoming increasingly aware of sugar\u2019s potential negative effects on health and weight, aspartame and other non-caloric sweeteners are gradually taking its place in various drinks. Since athletes care about weight control and calorie intake, aspartame became a ubiquitous ingredient in sports drinks. Brands that decided to steer clear of aspartame, like Flow Drinks, are now a minority. It can be tricky to recognize aspartame on nutritive labels. Brand names \u201cNutraSweet\u201d, \u201cEqual\u201d and \u201cSugar Tween\u201d also hide this controversial sweetener. One recent try to mask aspartame on nutritive labels and make it sound more natural is the brand name \u201cAminoSweet\u201d. However you call it, aspartame is lurking in the majority of sports drinks on the market, so beware when choosing one for yourself. Fortunately, natural alternatives are now available.\nIn the United States, the acceptable daily intake of aspartame is 50mg/kg (1). In Europe, this value is slightly lower -40mg/kg- but European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) also considers aspartame safe for human consumption (2). However, it is worth reminding that aspartame is approved under suspicious circumstances, despite the initial objections of concerned health authorities. Furthermore, it is made of three potentially toxic ingredients and numerous side effects of aspartame have already been reported and scientifically confirmed. With all this in mind, aspartame safety remains questionable. Many reputable health experts have written entire books on aspartame dangers in an effort to raise public awareness about this food additive.\nAspartame side effects\nAlthough the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) claims that aspartame is safe, it accounts for staggering 80% of all reported side effects to food and additives (FDA Consumer, October 1988). Aspartame side effects range from headaches, nausea, and fatigue to memory loss, seizures, and severe depression. According to these reports, aspartame can also trigger or worsen chronic diseases like brain tumors, fibromyalgia and Alzheimer\u2019s disease (3). Apparently, both European and American regulatory authorities are still ignoring serious side effects of aspartame and suggest it as a great sugar substitute.\nAspartame is comprised of two amino acids: aspartic acid and phenylalanine. They can both cause us harm when present in their free state -not bound to proteins. The aspartic acid salt, aspartate, acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. In excessive amounts, it can damage and even kill brain cells by overstimulating them. Glutamate, part of another food additive called monosodium glutamate (MSG) has a similar effect and these substances are called excitotoxins (4). That\u2019s why the combination of aspartame and MSG can be especially harmful and why you should opt for brands like Flow Drinks, avoiding the artificial additives altogether. Phenylalanine can also harm the brain in its free form, especially for people who can\u2019t metabolize it due to the genetic disorder called phenylketonuria (PKU). Aspartame can significantly increase the blood levels of phenylalanine, even in people without PKU. This can deplete brain serotonin supplies and contribute to various emotional disorders, like depression (5).\nAspartame and cancer\nAspartame can release methanol in the small intestine, or even before consumption if exposed to high temperatures (above 30oC). Our body metabolizes methanol into formaldehyde, a known carcinogen and neurotoxin. Symptoms of methanol poisoning can be extremely serious, even lethal. They include vision problems, nausea, and neurological damage. Studies have confirmed that methanol from aspartame causes immune dysfunctions, cell damage and cancer (6,7).\nAspartame vs sugar\nMany athletes, especially diabetics, avoid sugar and they often choose sports drinks labeled as \u201csugar-free\u201d, which contain aspartame and other artificial sweeteners. Sugar has a lot of calories -yet poor nutritional value- so athletes use sugar substitutes like aspartame in order to control their weight and calorie intake. Sugar remains the enemy of our health, but it is actually a much safer option than aspartame. People drink diet sodas and sweeten their food with aspartame and other sugar substitutes for the sake of their health and looks; this practice turned out to be fundamentally wrong. In addition to the myriad of negative health effects, a recent meta-analysis showed that aspartame doesn\u2019t help in weight control. It can even increase the risk of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases (8). And after all, if you are engaged in an intense physical activity, those calories in your sports drink can keep you energized. A balanced low-carb natural formulation, like the one in Flow Drinks, will ensure optimal calorie intake and keep your weight under control.\nAspartame healthy alternatives\nIf you are avoiding sugar, there are some healthier options. Instead of reaching for sugar-free products that contain aspartame, you can use natural sweeteners like honey, malt extract and agave syrup. Just make sure you consume them moderately, given their high caloric value. When it comes to sports drinks, make sure you choose brands that don\u2019t use aspartame and other artificial sweeteners. That being said, sports drinks loaded with sugar aren\u2019t the best alternative. Flow Drinks have a unique natural formulation and low carbohydrate content. They maintain optimal blood glucose levels during the physical activity, keeping the body fresh and energized.\ngov. (2017).

(ABC News)\nCOLUMBUS, Ga. --\nA fast food empire in Columbus, Georgia strikes back after a little boy in a wheelchair was being left out by other children playing nearby.\nThe boy's mom, Kari Merriken said she and her 8-year-old son, Caleb were attending \"Galaxy Night\" at their local Chick-fil-A earlier this month.\nDuring the event, Caleb, who has spinal muscular atrophy and uses a wheelchair, was purposefully excluded from playtime with other kids, his mother said.\n\"I felt like he might have been embarrassed, so I didn't want to rub salt in the wound, but I had to talk to Caleb about it,\" Merriken wrote to ABC News. \"I told him that I wanted him to take this experience and let it make him a better person than he already is. He's such a good kid with a big heart. He is so brave and resilient. Dealing with his disease is not easy, but he doesn't let it keep him from enjoying life. He keeps a positive outlook and a strong mind.\"\nThat's when some employees at the Chick-fil-A gave Caleb, \"a new hope.\" The employees did their best Jedi impersonations and engaged in an epic lightsaber battle.\nLater, she expressed her gratitude in a Facebook post to Chick-fil-A, along with a photo of the exchange.\n\"I was so thankful that their hearts were moved to intervene,\" Merriken said. \"I feel like they re-wrote the message he had just received. It went from 'You're not wanted' to 'You're valuable. You matter. We think you're cool.' I'm so appreciative of them taking the time to give Caleb that positive message. I feel like it helped restore his confidence.\"\nShe added: \"For the rest of us, myself included, I think I would want us to learn that kindness can go a long way to heal hurts.\"\nA representative at Chick-fil-A released the following statement to ABC News:\n\"Chick-fil-A team members across the country love creating special moments for guests, and this act of kindness in Columbus, Georgia, was just one example of our local team members doing what they do best.\"\nRecommended: Boy with autism reads to dogs so they won't feel lonely\nAutistic boy reads to dogs\nA 6-year-old California boy is helping shy rescue dogs come out of their shells by reading them storybooks.\nfeel goodviralbuzzworthyOhio\nWake teen finds hope in Wake County youth boxing program\nRoseboro honors kids spotted saying Pledge of Allegiance outside fire department",

        "raw_content": "Meta-analysis of survival after pleurectomy decortication versus extrapleural pneumonectomy in mesothelioma\nBACKGROUND: This comprehensive meta-analysis was conducted to answer the question as to which procedure, pleurectomy decortication (P/D) or extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP) is more beneficial to malignant pleural mesothelioma patients' outcome. METHODS: Original research studies that evaluated long-term outcomes of P/D versus EPP were identified, from January 1990 to January 2014. The combined percent perioperative and 2-year mortality, and median survival were calculated according to both a fixed and a random effect model. The Q statistics and I(2) statistic were used to test for heterogeneity between the studies. RESULTS: There were 24 distinct data sets, for a total of 1,512 patients treated with P/D, and 1,391 treated with EPP. There was a significantly higher proportion of short-term deaths in the EPP group versus the P/D group (percent mortality meta estimate; 4.5% vs 1.7%; p < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in 2-year mortality between the 2 groups, but there was significant heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS: The reanalysis of the large number of studies comparing P/D to EPP suggests that P/D is associated with a 2 (1/2)-fold lower short-term mortality (perioperatively and within 30 days) than EPP. Pleurectomy decortication should therefore be preferred when technically feasible.",

In view of its highly variable nature, this is hardly likely.\nIn applying today\u2019s idea, say to yourself, with eyes open:\nI see no neutral things because I have no neutral thoughts.\nThen look about you, resting your glance on each thing you note long enough to say:\nI do not see a neutral _______,\nbecause my thoughts about _______ are not neutral.\nI do not see a neutral wall, because my thoughts\nabout walls are not neutral.\nI do not see a neutral body, because my thoughts\nabout bodies are not neutral.\nAs usual, it is essential to make no distinctions between what you believe to be animate or inanimate; pleasant or unpleasant. Regardless of what you may believe, you do not see anything that is really alive or really joyous. That is because you are unaware as yet of any thought that is really true, and therefore really happy.\nThree or four specific practice periods are recommended, and no less than three are required for maximum benefit, even if you experience resistance. However, if you do, the length of the practice period may be reduced to less than the minute or so that is otherwise recommended.",

        "raw_content": "I grew up in a very traditional nuclear family. So did my parents. So did my grandparents. And so on, and so on. I remember thinking nothing of it.\nToday all the folks we consider kinfolk has expanded dramatically. Adoption, marriage, babies, step kids\u2026I often joke that we have duct taped and stapled folks to our family tree.\nAnd that\u2019s a good thing for all of us.\nOver spring break we visited Hope\u2019s side of the family. Previous visits were short,this one had us in the area for 3 days. It was worth all the driving and all the angst.\nI\u2019ve always known this but I see and know it more than ever now: There is something about being with your people that is incredibly powerful. Nature means folks look like you and sound like you, act like you. Hope\u2019s biological relationship with her kinfolk is undeniable; she looks just like them.\nWe learned a lot about Hope\u2019s family on this trip. I better understand why kinship adoption wasn\u2019t the best fit and how that truth has nothing to do with love. I wish that things had been different for Hope and for them, but we can only look forward. On this trip I learned what it feels like to also be grafted into a family tree. I imagine that this isn\u2019t quite what Hope felt, but maybe something along a parallel track.\nThis is the family visit when it all came together.\nWell it did for me anyway. I think Hope is still trying to figure it all out. For us adults, we have life skills and emotional intelligence to make this work more easily. I see their love for my daughter; they see my love for their daughter. There doesn\u2019t need to be any drama; we are a family and we\u2019ll do what we have to in order to make it work for Hope because that\u2019s what sensible grown folks do.\nHope still has some work to do in this area. She has quickly become territorial about aspects of the experience and even the chocolate cake her grandmother made because she knows I love cake. Hope isn\u2019t a big fan of cake. It will likely go uneaten because I decided to just let it be her cake, which I know she will not eat (more on the cake in a separate post).\nIt is a strange thing for all the adults in a room brought together by the love of a child to get it together only to watch the child struggle.\nMy daughter was frustrated by the family desire to talk about her parents; she quietly complained that she didn\u2019t want to talk about them unless they came up in conversation, but they did, a lot. My inner monologue also was running and said, \u201cWell why the hell are we here if not to be around your family who will no doubt talk a lot about your parents???\u201d I knew better than to ask that question out loud.\nI relished in getting pictures of my daughter as a little girl with her parents, while she alternated between balking and sobbing at the imagery and demanding copies of everything. Mid-trip we talked about what it felt like to sit up at night and intensely study the pictures looking for resemblance and connection.\nWhile I\u2019m happy to have taken this trip, now that we are home I\u2019m realizing the real emotional cost. It is hurts to know that my daughter doesn\u2019t understand that there is enough love and loyalty to go around. There will be more questions, there will be more trips. I feel grafted into the family, but I\u2019ve still got lots of questions and curiosity from my own biological family about \u201cthem.\u201d If history is predictive, there will be big emotions. There will be clingyness. There will be pulling away. There will be anger. There will be just a lot of stuff. It exhausts me thinking about it.\nBut I would do it again. How could I deny Hope her family? How in good conscious could I do that? My emotional output is minimal compared to the opportunity to reconnect with family. To see her family delight in seeing her again, getting reacquainted, to have the chance to share childhood stories of her lost parent, to see themselves in her\u2026it is a beautiful thing to witness. This isn\u2019t just for Hope; it\u2019s for all of them.\nWe\u2019ll visit again and again. I look forward to inviting them to visit, to graduations, to a wedding, to birthday parties and other events.\nThis entry was posted on Thursday, April 13th, 2017 at 1:03 pm\tand tagged with adoption, Adoption and Bio Families, African American Adoption, african american adoptive families, African American Parenting, Birth Family, Family, Family Ties, Family Vacations, Open adoption and posted in An Expanded Family, Finalization Life.\tYou can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS 2.0 feed.\n\u00ab My Triggers, Pt. 2\nEat the Cake \u00bb\n6 responses to \u201cWe Are Family\u201d\nHI. I read this with tears springing into my eyes. I am very impressed with your love and dedication to your daughter. I wrote a comment on your last post explaining how, in some ways, I can relate to Hope. All the triggers, the EQ being much younger than the chronological age, memory difficulties, education and social issues, etc. This post made me cry because it touched a place in me that I don\u2019t usually allow myself to go. When I went into foster care I lost my entire family. I haven\u2019t seem my mother in over 34 years, I lost all contact with siblings, cousins, everyone. I had no family and will never have that. The trauma was bad enough, but the loss of everyone I knew, and the loss of who I was \u2013 was too much. It seemed to me that everyone around me wanted me to pretend all was okay, to act like them (whoever they were. I was in 12 foster homes in 2 years), to forget the past and move on. You love her enough to know that connections to her family is important. And you love her in ways that shows her it does not threaten you or the relationship you want with her. I hope you guys rent the movie \u201cSecret Lives of Bees\u201d \u2013 the idea that mothers dont have to be blood, bonds dont need to begin at birth, and there can be loving relationships even after trauma, etc. Anyway, long reply here. Sorry if it doesn\u2019t make much sense. I also hope she shares her cake with you. _lora\nIt all makes perfect sense. It\u2019s not easy and I try to remember that this is especially challenging for my daughter. It\u2019s taken us a few years to get here; I am glad we have. There were moments when I really had to reassure her family that her emotions were ok, to just roll with it. My daughter was in 7 homes over a 4 year period with most having the same expectations you described. I am trying my best to help her heal and help her rebuild relationships in a healthy way. Thank you for sharing; it helps me a lot. It\u2019s important to understand how adoptees think about these things. \u2764 More on the cake tomorrow. \ud83d\ude42\nI love that you are so willing to put her needs first. I remember hearing another foster parent talk about bio family visits. They said just because it hurts, doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s bad for them. You are making the right choices for her. I hope to someday have the opportunity to do the same for my children.\nI hope to get to this place one day. I have a lot of resentment and pent up anger towards Mariah\u2019s family. It\u2019s hard to let that stuff go sometimes, especially when you know how much it\u2019s affected your baby. So I\u2019m listening, friend. I\u2019m watching and learning. Thank you for this!\nThe Gap | AdoptiveBlackMom\n[\u2026] happy to be in contact with her extended family, but she still hasn\u2019t unpacked a lot of her feelings about all that happened or figure out what kind of consistent contact, if any, she wants or how to [\u2026]\n\u201cThere\u2019s a gap. It may be there forever. I hope not, but it might be there for a long, long time.\u201d \u2013 Riddle from the Middle",

        "raw_content": "Aksioma \u2013 Institute for Contemporary Art, Ljubljana, presents:\nNarratives on the age of non-human actors\nGROUP EXHIBITION and SIDE PROGRAMME\nCurated by: Inke Arns (HMKV)\nV\u017eigalica Gallery | Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana\nExhibition opening: TUE, 27 June at 8 pm\nOpening hours: TUE-SUN 10 am \u2013 6 pm\nParticipating artists: Morehshin Allahyari & Daniel Rourke, Timo Arnall, Sidsel Meineche Hansen, Ignas Krunglevicius, Mark Leckey, Nicolas Maigret & Maria Roszkowska, Eva & Franco Mattes, Yuri Pattison, Sascha Pohflepp, Suzanne Treister, Addie Wagenknecht, Pinar Yoldas.\nThe exhibition asks what a world without us would be like. But rather than conjuring up a post-disaster scenario, it describes such a world as the result of a gradual development whose origins can be traced back to our day and age. Taking its cues from science-fiction literature and the philosophical school of Speculative Realism, the exhibition largely relies on the principle of extrapolation.\nThe tools for the creation of a \u201cworld without us\u201d are at hand. The first driverless cars are driving on our streets, news articles are compiled by algorithms, and translations are done by machines. Already in 2009 a third of all shares in the EU and the US were traded by algorithms. We can only speculate on the current proportion.\nIn a \u201cworld without us\u201d humans will be replaced by machines, artificial intelligences will be optimized by other AIs and algorithms will be programmed by other self-learning algorithms. In this way, a radically different, post-anthropocentric world could emerge in which non-human life forms could eventually prove better able to adapt than man himself. Benjamin Bratton said of such a world in 2014: \u201cWorse than being seen as the enemy (by AI) is not being seen at all.\u201d\nThe increasing influence of non-human actors in our everyday life has not only been explored by several recent blockbusters, including Her (2013), and in TV series such as Black Mirror (2011) and Real Humans (2012), but also in contemporary (media) art. Loosely inspired by Timothy Morton\u2019s book Ecology Without Nature, the artists in this exhibition explore the possibility of an ecology after man \u2013 an age of the post-Anthropocene, in which other \u201clife\u201d forms, such as algorithms, artificial intelligence, artificially created nanoparticles, genetically modified micro-organisms and seemingly monstrous plants, have taken control. This new era, which has already begun, albeit imperceptibly, is the age of non-human actors.\nThe World Without Us was originally produced and presented by HMKV in Dortmund, Germany in 2016. For the 2017 Ljubljana version a selection of the Dortmund show was made and some works of the exhibition alien matter (curated by Inke Arns for the transmediale festival, HKW, 2017) were added to The World Without Us.\nThe exhibition will move to Rijeka (Mali Salom / MMSU) at the end of the summer as a part of the project State Machines - Art, Work, and Identity in an Age of Planetary-Scale Computation.\nPhoto: Anne Bergner\nInke Arns, PhD, artistic director of Hartware MedienKunstVerein (HMKV) in Dortmund since 2005.

Alien matter refers to man-made, and at the same time, radically different, potentially intelligent matter. It is the outcome of a naturalization of technological artifacts. Environments shaped by technology result in new relationships between man and machine. Technological objects, previously defined merely as objects of utility, have become autonomous agents. Their capacity to learn and network throws into question the previously clear and dominant division between active subject and passive object. Within the alien matter exhibition 30 artists presented works about shifts within such power structures, raising questions about the state of our current environment and whether it has already passed a tipping point and is in the process of becoming \u201calien matter\u201d. Content-wise, the works clustered around four thematic focal points: artificial intelligence, plastics, infrastructure, and the Internet of Things \u2013 subcategories that are deemed to merge into the nascent great machine and thereby, in the words of G\u00fcnther Anders, are \u201cfuture obsolete\u201d.\nThis talk explores new ways of appearing and disappearing in a machine readable world including strategies for blocking face detection and thermal imaging, and tools for advanced visual-metadata analysis.\nAksioma Project Space\nRequiem for the Future\n5, 7, 8 July 2017 at 9 pm\nLjubljana Puppet Theatre",

While making no overt sexual references it is a damn seductive piece of art.\n\u201cI thought \u2018Seep\u2019 was an interesting parallel where it\u2019s liquid and solid, it\u2019s an object but it\u2019s light and gas,\u201d said Peterson. \u201cI was also interested in what Suzie was saying about the neighborhood being at the beginning of its revitalization process. It\u2019s that in-between space. The piece is very in-between\u2026 it\u2019s gorgeous and sexy but also gruesome and gross.\u201d\nSince AGLOW came down last May the piece has lived hidden in Alchemy NFK, latent energy in cardboard and bubble wrap.\nPortrait of the artist in not quite enough light.\nIt has taken a community effort to bring \u201cSeep\u201d back to life. The Business Consortium for Art Support\u2013a driving force behind numerous pieces of public art in the NEON\u2013made a major financial contribution. The residents of 801 Granby are supporting the art on their building. The Downtown Norfolk Council has orchestrated all of the terribly-boring-but-utterly-necessary details that go into insurance, contracts, and the like.\n\u201cWorking with the DNC has been great,\u201d said Peterson. \u201cRachel McCall has put in 1,000 emails back and forth.\u201d\nPeterson, whose personality reflects that of a guy who once turned a rusty industrial pipe into a soft serve dispenser, attended undergrad at Washington University in St. Louis. After a stint clearing Florida overgrowth with a machete for AmeriCorps he earned an MFA in studio arts at the University of Illinois at Chicago because \u201cI wanted to be back in the pool and see if I could swim,\u201d he said. Currently he is the manager of family programs and student engagement at the Smart Museum of Art in Chicago. While he perpetually considers his next work to be his greatest, a landmark in his career was the last piece he created in grad school, a project called \u201cInner State.\u201d\n\u201cEssentially I built a 100-foot-long sculpture that mirrored a set of highway signs,\u201d he said. \u201cThat was a pivotal piece that sprung me out of grad school and gave me the confidence to continue to push and do something I couldn\u2019t do before.\u201d\nIn terms of the ever-growing catalog of public art in the NEON District, \u201cSeep\u201d is sure to be noted by many as a personal favorite, a squiggly pink flash against the muted tones of 801 Granby. It compliments the light work of Julia Rogers and James Akers for everyone who enters the neighborhood from the north, and which continues with Cementascope and the historic Bob\u2019s Gun Shop neon toward Downtown.\n\u201cThere are a lot of smart and funny artworks here that can be looked at through the conceptual art lens, but can also be looked at through eyes that haven\u2019t been through art history school\u2026 and everyone can be a part of the conversation,\u201d said Peterson as he finished his evening cappuccino at Zeke\u2019s NFK. \u201cIt\u2019s tough to find that sweet spot.\u201d\n\u201cSeep\u201d is both good art and rad art, and we\u2019re lucky to have it call Norfolk home in the very near future.\nFor more of Erik\u2019s work, click here. The artist would like to thank folks that are helping make this project a reality: Bryan Riehl, of Riehl Deal Sign Company, who is fabricating (or \u201cbending\u201d) the additional neon sections, and George Gabris through his company Over the Edge, who will be installing the piece because he is a rigging expert\nFiled Under: HOME PAGE FEATURED, HOME PAGE SLIDER, NEON DISTRICT, SOUTHSIDE, Visual Arts Tagged With: America\u2019s Top Digital Cities, Downtown Norfolk Council, George Gabris, NEON District, Over the Edge, Riehl Deal Sign Company, Seep, Work Release",

He played for Somerset, Worcestershire and Durham, and represented his country over 100 times, breaking numerous records in the process.\nHis heroics with bat and ball during the Ashes series of 1981 formed one of the most compelling sporting dramas in the history of sport and resulted in his being awarded BBC Sports Personality of that Year.\nMr Botham\u2019s achievements off the field, in particular since retiring as a cricketer 13 years ago, are many and various \u2013 as a broadcaster, sports commentator, and writer. Most impressive, perhaps, are the spectacular long-distance sponsored walks he undertakes to raise money for Leukaemia Research (of which he is President), for which cause he has raised more than \u00a38.5 million. His OBE of 1992 was partly in recognition of this remarkable charity work.\nProfessor Gordon McGregor Reid\nGordon McGregor Reid, PPFLS was Director General and Chief Executive of The North of England Zoological Society, otherwise known as Chester Zoo. The Zoo is one of the leading wildlife attractions in the UK with well over one million paying guests each year providing the main source of income. Its annual turnover is nearly \u00a330 million and it employs up to 800 staff, who look after about 6,000 animals of 600 species. Roughly half of these animals are on the World Conservation Union Red List of endangered species. The conservation outreach work of the Zoo spans nearly 50 countries in six continents.\nUnder Professor McGregor Reid\u2019s leadership, the Zoo gained numerous international, national and regional awards for success in conservation, environment management education, science, and business excellence. Professor McGregor Reid has produced more than 100 scientific publications in zoology, ecology and conservation. He has been a Visiting Research Fellow at the Smithsonian Institution, and in 2005 he became President-Elect of the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums.\nFor three years he served as President of the Linnaean Society of London. His roles included: Trustee of National Museums Merseyside; Global Chair of the World Conservation Union Freshwater Fish Specialist Group; Trustee of the Frozen Ark (a cryobiological consortium dedicated to conserving the genomes of rare species); and Council Member and Chair of the Research Committee of the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums.\nThe Late Professor Malcolm Seabourne\nMalcolm Seaborne was born in Cardiff in 1927, and attended Cardiff High School, from where he won a scholarship to read history at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, graduating with first class honours in 1948.\nAfter National Service in the RAF he held a number of posts in educational administration in Cheshire, Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire, before becoming Assistant Master and later Head of History at Corby Grammar School, Northamptonshire. Eight years as Senior Lecturer in Education at Leicester University followed, before Malcolm Seaborne was appointed Principal of Chester College in 1971, a position he held with great distinction until his retirement in 1987.\nProfessor Seaborne was not only a notable teacher, administrator and manager, but he was also a scholar whose studious investigations encompass the history of education, school and church architecture, and palaeontology, and have resulted in the publication of some sixty books, articles and reviews. He was a Fellow of both the Royal Historical Society and the Royal Society of Arts, he held a PhD from the University of Cambridge, and was the recipient of an Emeritus Fellowship from the Leverhulme Trust to write the standard scholarly study Schools in Wales 1500-1900, complementing his major work on the history of English schools published earlier in his career.\nIn 2005, he was granted the title Professor Emeritus of the History of Education at the University of Chester as testimony to his achievement in that sphere. Throughout his time as Principal, Malcolm Seaborne made a truly outstanding contribution to the development of what was then Chester College of Higher Education, and is now the University of Chester.",

        "raw_content": "Crude oil could be the next casualty in US-China trade war\nChina has threatened to impose a 25 percent tariff on U.S. oil imports if the U.S. goes ahead with its plan to slap tariffs on more Chinese goods. This comes at a time when the U.S. has been increasing oil shipments to China.\nCGTN\u2019s Karina Huber has more.\nIn 2016, the United States began exporting oil for the first time in 40 years. Two years later, China is one of its biggest purchasers.\nIn the first four months of the year, China bought about 330,000 barrels of U.S. oil per day. That\u2019s around a billion dollars-worth per month and represents 20 percent of U.S. oil exports. In June, China surpassed Canada to become the biggest buyer.\nExperts said U.S. output is expected to increase and China will likely consume even more U.S. oil.\n\u201cThe U.S. predominantly exports light sweet crude, which essentially is high quality, low-sulfur crude. That is something that is in demand in China. Their appetite is only going to grow for that, particularly in the North, into those independent refiners.\u201d said Matt Smith, Director of Commodity Research, ClipperData.\nChinese buyers have been willing to ship U.S. crude halfway around the world, because it is trading at a discount relative to other global benchmarks like Brent crude.\nBut If China were to impose a 25 percent tariff on the import of U.S. oil, as it has threatened, that discount would disappear and experts say the market would dry up.\n\u201cDemand in China would drop overnight to zero, I would expect. Nobody is going to pay an extra 17, 18 dollars a barrel for crude just because it\u2019s from the U.S.\u201d said Sandy Fielden, Director of Research for Commodities and Energy, Morningstar.\nChinese buyers could source light crude from other countries like Nigeria or Russia. Experts are mixed on the impact tariffs might have on U.S. producers.\n\u201cThe world crude oil demand isn\u2019t going to change because of China\u2019s buying policy. So, there will be a home for it,\u201d said Fielden, \u201cEffectively, if China buys from someone else, then the people that were previously buying from them will need to get it from the U.S. In other words, it balances out.\u201d\nIndia has already become a bigger buyer of U.S. crude. But, even if that market grows as Fielden expects, other analysts say U.S. oil producers are unlikely to escape unscathed from a U.S.-China trade war.\nBrazil\u2019s auto industry adopting robotics as part of the 4th Industrial Revolution \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: RDP Monday\nIt was last year in February that the storm hit and we were carefully watching the local trees. One of them had been a little weak for sometime, and now the winds did the remainder of the work. We were worried that it might fall into our gardens, but it fell on the wall of the local bicycle shed and now the Swiss lumberjacks were called to clear the remains away.\nI was naturally watching from my window with the camera ready and so the guy began to chop away at various trees which were in his eyes presenting a threat to our safety, although I was sure he went a little too far.\nOne of my favourite trees opposite our place, was the one with the magpie nest in the top branches. The nest had not been occupied for at least 5 years, but it was there in Summmer and Winter. According to the eyes of a lumberjack (OK a Swiss lumberjack) this tree had to go and now it is no longer there.\nAnd so they chopped away to their heart\u2019s content. Eventally the machine appeared that converts the wood into small chips. I thought we were now in the forests of a Canada.\nAlthough I must say that the storm did leave traces everywhere in the neighbourhood, even in the local cemetery. Yes, nothing was spared.\nLumber, RDP Monday\t6 Comments\nI remember waiting for the year 1984 to happen and it did. I was then 38 years old and George Orwell\u2019s book was published in 1949 so how could he know. Big Brother was an idea, but he is here, in the shape of computers and watching us all.\nIn the meanwhile I have moved onto 2018 and time has literally flown past. 1984 was long ago, but I remember as a youngster thinking of the year 2000. I would count the years and I realised that I would then be 54 years old, that was then old. And so the year 2000 came and went and I am still here in 2018, aged 72. In the meanwhile many I knew have moved on. My mum already in the 20th century and dad in 2016, yes he become a centenarian.\nTomorrow will be 2019 and so time goes on. What does the future hold for me, for mankind? All I know is that there are too many familiar names I see as I take a walk through the local cemetery.\nRDP Monday, Segue\t14 Comments",

The Mercury moved here in 1988, not long after the first edition of its new tabloid size. The paper claims to have been founded in 1695. However, the date 1710 or 1712 seems more likely. The Stamford Post was launched in 1710, but reduced in size two years later, when it was renamed the Stamford Mercury.\nAn illustration and text about William Stukeley.\nThe text reads: English antiquarian who pioneered the archaeological investigation of the prehistoric monuments of Stonehenge and Avebury work for which he has been remembered as \u2018probably \u2026 the most important of the early forerunners of the discipline of archaeology\u2019.

Starting at 9:00 a.m. each day, the children will participate in a large group warm up lead by our camp staff. Following warm up they will be divided into smaller groups of 8 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c 10 based on their ages. They will enjoy time on several pieces of equipment as they rotate through bars, vault, trampoline, pit, beam, floor, tumbletrak and more. About half way through the morning they will be breaking for a snack and morning craft. In the afternoon our camp runs on a similar schedule but with new crafts and activities. All full day campers will receive a lunch break. Pickering Athletic Centre also offers before care starting as early as 7:00 a.m. and after care as late as 6:00 p.m. During these times, your children will enjoy time in our camp rooms, doing puzzles, games, colouring activities and watching movies.

        "raw_content": "Image: Apple.\nAccording to Boston Properties, the management company which owns the property, the iconic Fifth Avenue \u2018cube\u2019 store will re-open to the public sometime during the first half of this year.\nIn an earnings call in October 2018, Boston Properties CFO Michael LaBelle said this: \u201cWe expect them [Apple] to vacate that premises sometime [in the] first quarter, the early second quarter of next year and move into the new premises. But because the project has taken a little bit longer, we had revisions in the lease where we got increases in rent as the redevelopment of the existing store took longer.\u201d\nApple announced its plan for a full redesign of the store during their September 2017 keynote with Angela Ahrendts, VP of Retail, saying: \u201d We\u2019re going to continue to open Apple town squares in the top cities around the world. We\u2019re going to invest in online, and we\u2019re also going to continue to reinvest in our 400 classic locations, including Apple Fifth Avenue in New York City, where we\u2019re opening up the plaza to allow natural sunlight to come into a greatly expanded space below. And you can see, the glass cube will return when reopened late next year.\u201d\nApple had closed the Fifth Avenue Manhattan store in early 2017 for a complete overhaul. The \u2018cube\u2019 will be receiving an updated interior to match new and remodeled Apple Stores, and an underground expansion of the store. Furthermore, the store will receive an above ground \u201cplaza\u201d that feature light wells to allow natural light below.\nImage: Justin Sullivan / Getty Images.\nAs for the underground expansion, the store originally was 32,000 square feet and will now be doubled to an estimated 77,000 square feet. A report by AppleInsider says that the new store will also feature a Beats 1 broadcasting space.\nIn 2011, the Fifth Avenue store received a facelift with a new glass front. According to Apple, \u201cWe\u2019re simplifying the Fifth Avenue Cube,\u201d a sign read. \u201cBy using larger, seamless pieces of glass, we\u2019re using just 15 panes instead of 90.\u201d\nThe original Fifth Avenue \u2018cube\u2019 originally opened to the public on Friday, May 19th, 2006, at 6:00 PM ET. It is believed that it was a personal project for the late Steve Jobs, with him designing and even paying for the project himself.\nThe Fifth Avenue \u2018cube\u2019 is said to be the top destination that every Apple fan needs to visit if they go to New York City, or even plan on going during some point in their life. Personally, I hope to visit when they open later this year.\nApple currently operates several stores throughout the city, including Grand Central Terminal, Williamsburg, Downtown Brooklyn, SoHo, 74th and Madison Upper East Side, Upper West Side, West 14th Street, World Trade Center under the Oculus, Yonkers, and White Plains. Apple also maintains other stores outside of the city, and over 506 Apple Stores as of 2018 around the globe.\nPosted on January 31, 2019 January 31, 2019 Author Sid RamirezCategories Apple, Apple Retail StoreTags Apple, Apple Retail, Apple Store, Design, Fifth Avenue\nPrevious Previous post: Apple blocks Facebook from running internal iOS apps after \u2018research\u2019 app controversy\nNext Next post: Back to the Mac 04: How to install Dynamic Wallpapers in macOS Mojave",

        "raw_content": "Nintendo Finally Stops Bleeding Coins, Turns Healthy Profit\nAfter struggling to enter the next-gen competition, it looks like Nintendo's luck may finally be turning around.\nDuring the last six months, Nintendo sold over 600,000 Wii U consoles- nearly twice what it sold during the previous six months- thanks in part to the success of Hyrule Warriors and the continued success of Mario Kart 8. With the upcoming release of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Wii U sales are expected to continue performing strongly.\nMeanwhile, the 3DS isn't doing quite as well, only moving a little over one million units, but given that the handheld device has sold nearly 50 million units worldwide this is hardly cause for concern. Super Smash Bros 3DS and Tomodachi Life were both profitable titles, selling over 3 million copies apiece, and the upcoming Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are expected to fly off the shelves as well.\nAll in all, according to Reuters, Nintendo pulled in a profit of $86 million dollars for the July to September sales period, and will likely end up with a profit of $370 million dollars for the year. Despite a rocky start to this console generation, it looks like Nintendo has managed to get its foot in the door. Maybe now it can finally afford to buy Mario some new overalls.\nSUPER SMASH BROS WII U ADDS MEWTWO & 8 PLAYER MATCHES",

        "raw_content": "It has been forty-two years since Palestine witnessed the origin of Land Day on March 30th when the Israeli occupation forces seized thousands of dunums from the Palestinian Galilee occupied land. A strike stretching from Al-Mothalath (Arab Triangle) to Al-Naqab in protest against the attempt to empty the area and Judaize it under plans they called: The development of Galilee. The occupation authorities tried to disrupt the mass strike, which led to a clash with the Palestinians and resulted in the death of 6 Palestinians. This led the clashes to spread across the Palestinian territories.\nSince that day, Palestinians have been commemorating the 30th of March to emphasize their existence in the Palestinian land and their continuity. Nonetheless, the occupying state continued to target the Palestinian presence through confiscating more lands after seizing 56% of the area of historical Palestine on Nakba Day. Nowadays, Israeli control has reached more than 85% of historic Palestine, and its control over more than 40% of the West Bank territories, in which Palestinians are forbidden to use.\nPalestinians and all supporters of the Palestinian cause worldwide considers Land Day not only as a national occasion but also a date to renew the refusal of the occupation and its actions of depriving Palestinian owners of their land as well as abusing and exploiting both Palestinians and their land. These actions are endangering the Palestinian existence in terms of life, economy, health, water, and expansions to meet the population growth.\nIsrael has never stopped confiscation of Palestinian land, but in accordance with its systematic plans to Judaize and change it by establishing settlements , increasing the construction new streets for it , opening more military sites, expansion of the apartheid wall, and the accelerating Judaization of Jerusalem . The extensive siege on the Gaza Strip must be a warning sign especially after reliable international reports that confirm that Gaza will not be suitable for life in the near future.\nOn the anniversary of Palestine\u2019s Land Day, Health Work Committees as a health and development NGO would like to emphasize that:\n\u2022 The Palestinian land is the symbol for existence of the Palestinian people and the proof of its historical existence that has been extended for thousands of years. Therefore, any change on the land of Palestine has no basis.\n\u2022 We renew our rejection of all conspiracies and deals that would deprive the Palestinians collectively or individually of their land or giving it to others.\n\u2022 We call for supporting Palestinian farmers on their land and facilitating their success and their protection from the occupation\u2019s attempts to seize their land to turn into settlements.\n\u2022 We affirm the determination of our people and its various institutions to uphold Jerusalem as the eternal capital of Palestine. We consider the recent declaration by President Donald Trump to be invalid and against international law and all resolutions of the International bill related to Palestine.\n\u2022 We call on the different Palestinian political parties to unite and minimize the escalation that prevailed recently and call on them to join their people to protect the Palestinian land, which is now subject to judaization and confiscation while they are busy with their confrontation.\n\u2022 We give our respect to the martyrs of land day and the martyrs of our people, ouyr prisoners and the injured who sacrificed for the Palestinian land and the Palestinian dream of an independent free state with Jerusalem as its capital.\nLong Live Land Day!\nGreetings and Respect to the Land Owners who are Rooted in its soil.",

Apple is hoping that the technology, which could be ready for public consumption by 2017, will be more efficient than current wireless charging methods. Today, Apple uses wireless inductive charging for the Apple Watch, but the watch still needs to sit directly on top of its magnetic cradle to charge.\nCompeting Android and Windows Phone handsets have included support for wireless charging for some time, though even now it's hardly a standard feature. Most low-end phones don't support it, and the feature comes and goes in high-end phones depending on what the phone is made of, which company made it, and which wireless carrier is selling it. And even when wireless charging is supported, the fact that there are multiple competing standards hasn't helped (though some companies are working on that).\nThe biggest problems with the technology are that, despite ongoing advancements, your phone and charger still need to be very close together to work, and wireless charging isn't very efficient compared to a good old wire. Apple isn't the only company looking to solve both of those problems\u2014a Ukranian startup named XE has already shown off a wireless charger with a radius of 16 feet (5-ish meters), large enough that simply being in the same room with the charger could deliver power to your devices. XE plans to offer cases that support today's iPhones once the tech makes it to market.",

        "raw_content": "Schulhoff\u2019s Strange, Moody Violin Music\nSCHULHOFF: Suite for Violin & Piano. Sonatas Nos. 1 & 2 for Violin & Piano. Sonata for Solo Violin / Bruno Monteiro, violinist; Jo\u00e3o Paulo Santos, pianist / Brilliant Classics BRI95324\nMy initial interest in the music of Erwin Schulhoff\u2014and still my strongest connection to him\u2014was through his jazz-influenced piano works of the 1920s and early \u201830s. Those are wildly innovative and interesting works which, though not really based on real jazz but on peppy dance music of the era, have a tremendous vitality and fascination. I\u2019ve reviewed several of his more conventional classical works and have found some to be quite interesting and creative, others not so much.\nHere we have the Czech composer\u2019s complete works for violin: a Suite and two Sonatas for violin and piano, and one solo violin Sonata. Listening to the opening movement of the first of these produced some strange emotions in me.The music, though tonal, is very fluid harmonically, consitantly slithering (mostly downward) chromatically. This kind of odd harmonic movement made me feel uneasy and uncertain; somehow, it put me in mind of that scene from the 1950s sci-fi film Invaders from Mars where the young boy suddenly feels the ground beneath his feet giving way and is sucked into the Martians\u2019 underground settlement. The second movement, a Gavotte, is a little more cheerful at first but eventually reaches a passage where the violin sustains a low-range D for what seems like a full chorus while the tempo slows down and the piano then plays its own descending-chromatic passage. The liner notes tell us that after 20 aborted attempts at composition, this is the work that Schulhoff finally chose as his Op. 1. The notes also tell us that it \u201cexhibits eigtheeenth century influence\u2026reminiscent of the classical structure of its genre.\u201d Well, that may be so in terms of form, but I think annotator Ana Carvalho is missing the forest for the trees. The odd harmonic movement is by far the overriding quality of this suite, regardless of how much 18th-century form it emulates, and that is what strikes the listener and stays with him or her.\nOf course, the emotional impact of any piece of music is often contingent upon the interpretation of the performers, and to a certain extent it is pianist Santos who projects the stronger emotion in this suite. Violinist Monteiro, though possessing a fine tone and technique, seems to be content with riding the top line without much in terms of personal involvement, at least not until he reaches the fourth-movement Walzer where he injects some rhythmic buoyancy in the way he bounces the music along. And yes, once again it is the downward chromatic movement of the harmony that arrests our attention.\nInterestingly, the first movement of the Violin-Piano Sonata No. 1 sounds like a continuation of the Suite, but only because of the similarity of key. In terms of harmony this sonata, written two years later, already shows (if you will pardon my speaking generally about it) a shift from ambiguous harmony to, well, harmony concr\u00e8te. No longer is Schulhoff slithering around the tonality, a man in search of grounding; he has settled on writing in a bitonal form, borrowed in part from Claude Debussy (with whom he was briefly in contact while composing it) but also looking forward to the bolder harmonic experiments to come in the next decade and a half. Where this music resembles the Suite is in its melodic and rhythmic treatment; these are still rooted in, so to speak, a Ravel-like format, exhibiting a lyrical flow of the top line even as the harmonies become increasingly bolder. There are also, particularly in the second movement (marked Tranquillo) a large number of portamento slides, harking back to a style of violin playing exemplified by Fritz Kreisler and Bronislaw Huberman, neither of which would have played a sonata this modern-sounding. Even the last movement, a peppy Rondo, has the kind of rhythmic feel (and more portamento slides) that would have attracted such violinists but the constantly shifting modern harmonies might have thrown them off the scent.\nI found it very interesting to compare these performances to the ones by violinist David Delgado and pianist Stefan Schmidt on a 2013 release by Gramola of this exact same material. The opening movement of the Suite, for instance, is taken at exactly the same tempo as Monteiro and Santos, but the articulation, accents and phrasing are entirely different. Delgado plays his violin in a musically angular manner, perhaps even a bit more cleanly than Monteiro, but cleanliness of bow attack does not translate into any particular depth of feeling. I did sense a greater feeling from Schmidt in the first movement of the Violin-Piano Sonata No. 1, but once again the phrasing is angular and not flowing. This is the kind of playing that, had I never heard the Monteiro recording, I would probably have given a thumbs-up to, but as soon as you switch from the Gramola release to this new one you immediately feel the difference. Schmidt and Delgado may have more intensity at times, but it doesn\u2019t penetrate much beyond surface excitement. It\u2019s a bit like comparing Isaac Stern to Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg: a bit more fullness of sound, but little of the from-the-heart feeling of the latter.\nThe Sonata for solo violin, finished in 1927 and published in 1928, replaces the jazz influence of his piano works of the period with the influence of Czech folk music. Here Schulhoff calls for an entirely different technique, rougher around the edges like the folk-influenced violin music of Bart\u00f3k and Kod\u00e1ly. I noticed that, in terms of both musical layout and technical requirements, this sonata had very little in common with J.S. Bach\u2019s famous solo sonatas and partitas. There is some counterpoint, but not to the extent that there is in Bach, only enough to urge the music along here and there, particularly in the first movement, very little in the second. That being said, Monteiro has a little bit of difficulty fully getting into the rough-and-ready requirements of the music (listen to Joseph Szigeti play Bart\u00f3k for an example of how it\u2019s done), but he is, again, far better at it than Schmidt, who apparently didn\u2019t even try to sound much like a folk violinist. My lone complaint is that the third and fourth movements sounded a bit too much alike to me.\nWith the second Violin-Piano Sonata, we find ourselves immersed in fully mature Scholhoff. Here is music that not only speaks his own language, the advanced harmonies now subjugated to the melodic line, meaning that as the melody moves along the harmonic base changes to fit each note and phrase, but also sounds much more assertive. In this work I found less difference in the performance of Delgado and Schmidt on the one hand and Santos-Monteiro on the other as the angular melody and assertive rhythmic attacks sounded good played by both\u2014and just maybe, in this work, the fuller tone of Schmidt worked to his advantage. Nonetheless, Monteiro does not hold back; he attacks this music with relish, fully understanding its idiom and purpose.\nAll in all, a fascinating glimpse of a different side of Schulhoff. In the end, I wasn\u2019t so sure how I really felt about this music in toto; yes, it was interesting, but was it substantive enough to warrant repeated listening? That\u2019s a question each listener has to answer for him or herself. I can only tell you my reaction; I can\u2019t predict yours; but it\u2019s certainly music worth hearing at least once.\nMartucci\u2019s Chamber Music Given Elegant Treatment\nNovember 28, 2016 The Art Music Lounge 1 Comment\nMARTUCCI: Piano Trios Nos. 1 & 2. Piano Quintet in C, Op. 45. Momento Musicale for String Quartet. Minuetto for String Quartet. 3 Pieces of G.F. Handel transcribed for String Quartet / Maria Semeraro, pianist; Quartetto Noferini / Brilliant Classics BRI-94968\nSeveral years ago, I discovered the music of Giuseppe Martucci through some rare broadcasts by Arturo Toscanini: the Canzone dei Ricordi with mezzo-soprano Bruna Castagna, the Piano Concerto No. 2 with Mieczyslaw Horszowski, the First Symphony, the Tarantella and the Noveletta. I thought it surprisingly good and interesting, but when I tried to share my enthusiasm with others in the music critic biz I was rebuffed with deprecating comments. The Canzone dei Ricordi was \u201cdrippy and depressing\u201d (oh, like Bruckner isn\u2019t?), the Symphony and the Concerto just ripped off Brahms. To them, Martucci wasn\u2019t an original composer, just an Italian wanna-be hack.\nBut wait a minute. I\u2019ve yet to hear any serious composer in the years between 1803 and 1850 who wasn\u2019t influenced to some extent\u2014and sometimes to a great extent\u2014by Beethoven, and this includes Schubert, Schumann and young Brahms. And I\u2019ve heard very few composers during the period of Brahms\u2019 height who weren\u2019t influenced by him, or by Wagner (who actually heard Martucci play piano once), and this included a fair amount of French composers. What I hear in Martucci is an Italianate expression of the Brahmsian approach to writing, but also a style informed to a large extent by Wagner (harmonically) and Schubert (melodically). Yet in the end, what I really hear is Martucci, a fine, serious yet lyrical composer who really did try to recover the lost art\u2014in his time\u2014of Italian instrumental writing. Yes, he was eventually superseded by such composers as Castelnuovo-Tedesco, Ghedini, Rieti and Petrassi, but it was a start.\nPianist Semeraro and members of the Quartetto Noferini\u2014specifically violinist Roberto Noferini and cellist Andrea Noferini, when they\u2019re not playing together in the string quartets or piano quintet\u2014do their level best to bring this music to life. They do not have what I would describe as a \u201cdynamic\u201d sound profile, but rather a lyrical and reflective one, thus the music presented here is not attacked with razor-sharp downbows or crashing piano chords. In lieu of that we hear sweet and gentle phrases coaxes out of the strings and a bubbling rhythmic undercurrent from the piano. Once in a great while, when the strings play rapid passages together, I hear very slight intonation differences. But taken in whole, these are performances of great love and respect for the music, and that overcomes any small defects one hears along the way. Yes, I would have preferred a bit more energy here and there, but these musicians make the music swell and pulsate; they give it life; they sing it from their hearts. And that is enough to make one realize that Martucco may not have been a great master, but he was indeed great enough to express something deep within him\nLike so many Romantic-era composers, Martucci put melodic content above harmonic or rhythmic innovation. Having just reviewed C.P.E. Bach\u2019s organ sonatas before listening to this set, I was a bit taken back by the more conventional harmony one hears in the later Italian composer, but this was to be expected. Even Brahms liked good melodies, only occasionally (as in his Fourth Symphony) moving past the creation of recognizable tunes to produce complex music that was tonal and melodic but relied more strongly on the interworkings of the score than the projection of songfulness. If I had to pick one movement here that I felt was a bit too songful and not strong enough structurally, it would be the Andante con moto of the Piano Quintet. Despite a wonderful moment around 6:50 where the music swells into a climax of remarkable proportions, most of it just sort of toodles along, and I\u2019m not so sure these musicians know what \u201ccon moto\u201d means because there is very little \u201cmoto\u201d in their mojo. But there is a tradeoff. Pianist Aldo Orvieto and members of the Ex Novo Ensemble di Venezia play this movement a bit quicker on a Dynamic CD, but in turn they lose the feeling that Semerano and the Noferinis put into it. And certainly, the Noferinis rip into the Scherzo with tremendous brio and vigor.\nI was particularly taken by the Second Piano Trio, a work of great vigor, invention and emotion. In her liner notes, Andrea Noferini correctly points out that Martucci\u2019s style never evolved, even in the early years of the 20th century (he died in 1909), to the heights achieved by French (Debussy, Dukas and Ravel), Russian (Scriabin and Stravinsky) or German composers (Mahler, young Schoenberg). He was a bit too set in his ways; yet he, like York Bowen after him, found new expression in conventional tonality. Somehow when critics want to tar Martucci for not \u201cgrowing\u201d harmonically they exempt his model, Brahms, because somehow Brahms was superior to all living beings. Indeed, the huge (almost 11 minute) Scherzo is one of Martucci\u2019s finest creations, and in this movement pianist Semeraro really opens up her sound and plays with both passion and vigor. It\u2019s quite a performance!\nThe short pieces for string quartet are charming but lightweight, yet the main point of this set is not that Martucci was a transcendent genius whose music was far ahead of its time, but that he was a serious and uncompromising composer who did not crank out insignificant or inferior music to order but who spent a great deal of time and thought putting his scores together. And Maria Semeraro and the Noferini Quartet bring it to you at a bargain price. How can you go wrong?\nC.P.E. Bach\u2019s Organ Music Wild, Scintillating\nC.P.E. BACH: Organ Sonatas: Wq 65 No. 32; Wq 70 Nos. 2-6 / Iain Quinn, organist / Naxos 8.573424\nAccording to the liner notes for this record\u2014and before I quote them, I am going to make a personal caveat that the author does not present any proof and therefore her words may not have any validity regarding this topic\u2014Caroline Wright speculates the following:\nWhile his father\u2019s prowess as an organist was legendary\u2014in 1751, a year after J.S. Bach\u2019s death, Georg Philipp Telemann lamented, \u201cDeparted Bach! Long since your splendid organ-playing / Alone brought you the noble cognomen \u2018The Great\u2019\u201d\u2014C.P.E. Bach may not have been quite so skilled. Confessing to Charles Burney in 1772 that he was so out of practice he had \u201clost the use of the pedals,\u201d he seems not to have been a virtuoso in the manner of Johann Sebastian. Instead, he was better known for his performances on the other (stringed) keyboard instruments, and especially the clavichord. Perhaps this is why he wrote relatively little music for the organ: the Wq 70 set (comprising five sonatas and a D major prelude) as well as a handful of fugues and chorales are his only words explicitly for the instrument. That said, much of his keyboard music works equally well on the organ as on stringed alternatives such as the harpsichord or clavichord.\nLet us analyze the above paragraph in the face of what we know about C.P.E. Bach as well as his older brother, Wilhelm Friedemann, who was by all accounts an organist on the same level of his father. The bald fact is that long-term organist posts at German churches, like the one J.S. Bach had at Leipzig, didn\u2019t exactly grow on trees, particularly in the late 18th century. W.F. Bach had a terrible time finding a position, despite his pedigree plus the fact that his godfather had written him a glowing letter of recommendation. And who was his godfather? Why, G.P. Telemann, of course, so with that in mind some of his effusive praise might be taken with a grain of salt. Remember, \u201cJ.D. Power & Associates\u201d highly ranks Quicken Loans here in the U.S., because both are part of the same banking corporation.\nBut look at the other facts. C.P.E. Bach neither tried to find a gig as an organist nor had one. He worked for nearly 30 years in the court of the flute-playing King Frederick the Great, where his job (along with that of his co-employee, Quantz) was primarily to write flute pieces for his employer and clavichord pieces for himself to play for Frederick. The only reason the Wq 70 sonatas were composed at all was because in that year, 1755, the princess had a new organ built for her with a very wide range of stops. Since Frederick knew very well that Bach\u2019s father was a fine organist\u2014old J.S. made the trek to visit his son at Frederick\u2019s court, which visit eventually resulted in the Musical Offering composed for Frederick\u2014C.P.E, not Quantz, was assigned the task of writing these sonatas for her.\nAnd what music it is! Here is the wildly inventive, musically daring Bach of the Hamburg years in full bloom at an earlier period of time. These sonatas are simply astonishing: flamboyant and flashy, harmonically advanced, using a wide variety of stops for color and his now-familiar style of disguising the melodic line in ornamentation and unusual shifts of rhythm. In the third movement of the Wq 70/6 sonata, for instance, Bach changes the stops twice in the course of a few seconds\u2019 worth of staccato chords at around the 2:35 mark, and this movement is also full of strange little luftpausen to catch the listener\u2019s attention to the musical surroundings. Another good example is the first movement of the Wq 70/4 sonata, in which Bach uses unusual scalar passages which alternate between the major and the minor, quite daring for its time. They are about as far in style from the organ music of his father as Beethoven\u2019s piano sonatas were from Mozart\u2019s.\nThe Princess Royal must have been quite a spectacular organist in her own right, because these are NOT easy pieces to play, and it is to Iain Quinn\u2019s credit that he plays them with relish and enthusiasm. He obviously loves these sonatas as much as I did hearing them. Quinn reminds me of the greatest church organist I ever heard play live, David Drinkwater at Kirkpatrick Chapel on the campus of Rutgers University back in the 1970s. (I sometimes just hung around when Drinkwater was practicing because he was so much fun to hear.) Incidentally, the instrument Drinkwater played was a classic Aeolian-Skinner pipe organ, just like the one they had at Wanamaker\u2019s Department Store in Philadelphia back in the 1920s and \u201830s (Rutgers replaced it in 2013 with an electronic instrument). On this recording, Quinn uses a much smaller organ from the same state, New Jersey, the one at the Theological Seminary in Princeton, New Jersey. (Yes, I used to go to Princeton, too, but only to the book and record stores there, never to the Theological Seminary, so I cannot claim any first-hand knowledge of this instrument.) Small as it is (note the photo on the front cover), almost like a pocket-sized organ compared to the massive Rutgers instrument with pipes installed in the walls that went up damn near thirty feet, this organ has a wonderful range of colors which Quinn exploits with skill and imagination.\nI can\u2019t say enough about this album. It is absolutely one of the most fun discs of organ music you are likely to hear, particularly from this period of music history. If you enjoy organ music and/or C.P.E. Bach, you\u2019ll love this disc!\nA New and Fascinating Berberian Recital\nCATHY BERBERIAN: IN THE VOICE LABYRINTH / PURCELL: Nymphs and Shepherds. ARMENIAN SONGS: Siroohis (Mio amore).

I reviewed two of the better ones on this blog back on April 11 (Two Superb Reissues by Crazy Cathy), and now here\u2019s a new reissue.\nOr is it? The very first number on this disc is Henry Purcell\u2019s Nymphs and Shepherds, a song she skewered at that Edinburgh recital by singing it a quarter-tone flat throughout. But this isn\u2019t that performance; this one is sung perfectly straight, and she is accompanied by an anonymous harpsichordist, not by pianist Bruno Canino. Moreover, as one will discover, the performances here of the Kurt Weill songs, the Lennon-McCartney tunes and Stripsody are not the ones she recorded commercially, but rather live versions (there\u2019s even applause after Surabaya Johnny). And we now have performances, previously unknown to me, of Berberian singing two songs by Villa-Lobos, five by Erik Satie, a different aria from Offenbach\u2019s La P\u00e9richole than the one she sang in Edinburgh, Stravinsky songs recorded in the Columbia studio by Evelyn Lear, not Berberian, and four excerpts from William Walton\u2019s Fa\u00e7ade. These recordings may indeed have been available in Europe on various labels over the years; I wouldn\u2019t really know; but to me all of this material is fresh and new, and so I must review it as such.\nTo begin with, Berberian seldom changed her approach to certain material once she found her way, the one example that disproves that rule being Nymphs and Shepherds. As a result, you won\u2019t find too much difference here from the commercially recorded versions, except that the Beatles songs sound just a bit less tongue-in-cheek than the recording and the other material (particularly Stripsody and the P\u00e9richole aria) more outgoing. She is obviously having fun with the Fa\u00e7ade excerpts, but in \u201cTango-Pasodoble\u201d she is off-mike for much of it and the Italian orchestra and conductor has a hard time playing Walton\u2019s music with the right jazz-age swagger. Yet she has a ball with \u201cTarantella\u201d and she is surprisingly light and childlike in Satie\u2019s delightful Daph\u00e9n\u00e9o. Everything here is sung well, and all in all it\u2019s a wonderful introduction to new listeners as to what Cathy Berberian was all about. Most of the performances are simply brilliant, and some of them quite surprising even to some fans. For instance, she had her own \u201ctake\u201d on Satie\u2019s La Diva de l\u2019Empire: instead of singing it with a swinging beat, as is normally done, she slows it down, adds moments of rubato, and drags out certain phrases in a prima-donna style. She was definitely her own person.\nAnnotator Piero Rattalino makes two observations in the liner notes, one of which I agree with and the other of which I don\u2019t. I disagree with his judgment that she was basically a comic artist with a light voice, and thus \u201cborn to sing operetta.\u201d It\u2019s true that Berberian had a wicked sense of humor and wasn\u2019t shy about showing it off, but she got into singing in the first place because she really loved music, not because she wanted to lampoon it. The observation I do agree with is that \u201cFor those who saw her, Berberian\u2019s recordings are like family photos that are there to bring back emotions that have been lived, not to produce those emotions.\u201d Everyone I met who saw her in person said it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.\nThe problem with this CD is that very few of the accompanists are credited (in the case of Stripsody, Canino is credited but there\u2019s no piano on this track!), no recording dates or venues are provided, and we don\u2019t even know for sure which of these are studio recordings. Yes, most of them definitely sound like live performances or radio studio recordings, but the Armenian songs\u2014which she does flawlessly\u2014sound very much as if they came from a recording studio. No accompanist is credited. And ironically, considering Rattalino\u2019s comments, the majority of this album presents Berberian the serious artist, not counting the tongue-in-cheek performances of Beatles songs or Stripsody, the P\u00e9richole aria or the Walton Fa\u00e7ade excerpts.\nI regret to say I never saw Berberian in concert. Her live appearances, particularly in the U.S., were actually pretty limited. Most of the time she sang strictly avant-garde music, which at that time didn\u2019t appeal to me, and tickets were both fairly expensive and hard to come by\u2026her fan club usually snapped them all up within a couple of hours of their going on sale at the box office. Yet although she had a wacky sense of humor that she exercised fully and often, and in addition had a voice too small to sing any but Baroque operas in tiny theaters, I wouldn\u2019t go so far as to say she was primarily an operetta and comic singer. She just never let boundaries be set up around her; she refused to be pigeonholed. That\u2019s why she made the album of Beatles songs and did the Edinburgh recital dressed like an overstuffed sofa from 1904. Her performances were, in the parlance of the day, \u201cHappenings\u201d (the same way Salvador Dali was a \u201cHappening\u201d), and it\u2019s kind of sad that we don\u2019t have such things nowadays to break up the monotony and the dark, daily drudge of life. Cathy Berberian enjoyed life, enjoyed singing, and enjoyed both being serious and putting people on. She had a complex personality, see? She was a person! And everyone I knew absolutely adored her\u2014avant-garde repertoire or not.\nAnd you\u2019ll love her, too.\nRatatet\u2019s \u201cArctic\u201d Unusual, Thought-Provoking Jazz\nARCTIC / HALL: Electrick.

In the process of writing music for Electreo, Alan\u2019s desire to write for a larger ensemble grew, as did the band,, and thus created Ratatet. The band is unusual in that it includes a bassoon (played by Hanson) and, on this new recording, additional musicians play English horn and oboe (Paul McCandless) and cello (Joseph Hebert) on the last track (Returning [for Lesly]).\nThe bassoon makes an immediate impact in the opening of Electrick, which sounds to be in either 3/4 or a slow 6/8 time, at least at first. The tune hovers around F major without ever really setting up shop there, and the ambiguous melody flows seamlessly into a series of short statements by trombone, bassoon, vibes, trombone again and then back to bassoon. Drummer Hall, who wrote all of the compositions, has full command of the odd meter, playing against rather than with the beat, while Jeff Denson\u2019s bass is felt more than heard until the last two bars.\nHall uses a slow 4 for Father\u2019s and Sons, with 6/8 breaks. This time it is Denson up first for a solo, showing off a beautiful tone and febrile imagination. Pianist Sankovich plays with a fine sense of structure in his solo, egged on by the leader on snare and cymbals, each beat struck clearly and with great decision. One of my few disappointments of this album was that I felt the tunes were too short, although on re-examining the timings I found to my surprise that not one piece was under three and a half minutes and, in fact, most were four or longer! This just goes to show you how well Ratatet is able to fill space without bogging down the listener. The Marriage of Arnolfini starts with a drum solo; when the initial melody is played, bassist Denson sings wordlessly along with the ensemble. But this piece belongs to vibist Dillon Vado and Hanson on bassoon, whose extended solos fit hand in glove with the surrounding material and with each other. Interestingly, although the tune constructions are very modern they are primarily tonal, and thus the solos almost never stray towards outside jazz, which is appropriate.\nThe title tune, Arctic, creates an unusually relaxed mood using a bowed bass olo to lead into the melody played by vibes and bassoon (sequentially, not together). The trombone is used mostly for color and the piano merely sprinkles sixteenths around the proceedings. Denson is first up with a solo, again playing arco bass; his bowed tone is a little edgy in quality. Surprisingly, when Sankovich enters for his piano solo, the meter shifts (again towards triple time) and the performance begins to gain in volume as the band rides towards the finish line\u2014but then they pull back just in time to go out as they came in, with bassoon and trombone playing with piano sprinkles around them.\nRed State, Blue State has an edgy, quasi-Thelonious Monk-type beat about it, with a similarly angular melody. Here Hanson switches to tenor sax as the voicing of the opening melody provides a somewhat more conventional-sounding jazz sextet sound. They then switch to a comically stiff march beat before relaxing the rhythm and swinging more behind the soloists. In a Sense, Innocence toodles along lightly in its own unusual meter, using bassoon and vibes over the rhythm section, adding muted trombone on the break for color, but the centerpiece of this track is Sankovich\u2019s piano solo, atmospheric and effervescent.\nIn Word By Word, the tremendous musical invention one heard since the start of this album suddenly becomes a bit ordinary. This is a tune without much going for it other than a quirky beat, and in fact it resembles some of the preceding material without coming up to its high level. Perhaps one thing that annoyed me about it was the funkier, more rock-like beat; when I hear rock beats, I\u2019m heading out the door, and it doesn\u2019t matter who is playing them. Happily, the band gets back on track with the excellent tune Basquiat, yet another tune that leans towards triple time. Here, Hanson\u2019s bassoon solo does lean a bit towards \u201coutside\u201d jazz, exploring the chords with more than the usual expected route, while John Grove\u2019s trombone is laid-back and relaxed.\nWhat Cy\u2019s Eyes See is another laid-back track, this one introduced by solo vibes before getting into a loosely-structured ensemble followed by solos. Gataxi is, texturally, the most unusual piece on this album, starting with what sounds like a slightly distorted electric piano sound before moving into\u2026more rock-beat jazz. We shall mercifully draw a curtain over this track. I sure did.\nThe closer, Returning (for Lesly), is by far the most creative piece on the album, particularly in its rich scoring. Bowed cello is complemented by pizzicato bass, and the bassoon is complemented here by an oboe and English horn. McCandless\u2019 solo, however, sounds written out rather than improvised; it certainly does not swing, but it doesn\u2019t have to. The emphasis here is on impressionism rather than a full-out jazz piece. What I liked about this piece was its strong sense of construction despite another ambiguous melody; it held together very well. I was a bit disappointed, however, by the fade-out ending.\nAll in all, then, Arctic is a fascinating album, consistently strong in its solos and generally quite interesting (despite the few exceptions noted above) in compositional terms.

By a Bierside*+. BUTTERWORTH: Bredon Hill and Other Songs*+. Suite for String Quartet#. Love Blows as the Wind Blows (excerpts)*+. WARLOCK: Saudades: Heracleitus*+. Sweet Content*+ / *Charles Daniels, tenor; +Michael Dussek, pianist; #Bridge String Quartet / EM Records EMRCD036\nHere is a recital of early Vaughan Williams-like pieces for tenor, piano and string quartet by a trio of British composers, namely Ivor Gurney, George Butterworth and Peter Warlock (aka Philip Heseltine). Warlock I knew, but this was my first exposure to the music of Gurney and only my second to Butterworth.\nAs I say, however, the pieces chosen for this recital are all in that British-influenced-by-French-impressionism style that many listeners are familiar with from Vaughan Williams\u2019 great early song cycle, On Wenlock Edge. Gurney\u2019s style is a bit more adventurous harmonically than Vaughan Williams, and at least in the first, third and fourth songs of Ludlow and Teme a bit more rhythmic. But there were weak moments, too, such as the second song in this cycle, \u201cFar in a Western brookland,\u201d which suffered from a poor melody and unimaginative string writing. But the Bridge String Quartet is a very fine aggregation, as one can clearly hear in their performances of the \u201cAdagio\u201d from Gurney\u2019s String Quartet in D minor and the complete Butterworth Suite for Quartet. That being said, I found the Butterworth Suite rather innocuous and only mildly interesting.\nOn the other hand, Warlock\u2019s music\u2014particularly Heracleitus\u2014was just as riveting as I recalled from his many other pieces, and here both Daniels and the quartet rise to the occasion with a deeply heartfelt performance. Sweet Content is in Warlock\u2019s \u201cother\u201d style, e.g. his Renaissance-song imitation style, and this is meat and potatoes to Daniels. The two excerpts from Butterworth\u2019s Love Blows as the Wind Blows are also excellent music.\nI was delighted to hear that our tenor, Charles Daniels, has a firm, clear voice and equally clear diction, although in the end I realized that his voice was a bit thin in tone, its sound enhanced by what can only be described as \u201cempty locker room\u201d reverb around both him and the instruments, but mostly around him. This is not, however, to denigrate his accomplishments here. Vocal size has never been, for me, a determining factor in whether or not a singer is great; musicality, phrasing and interpretation often override the sheer size of a voice. Bethany Beardslee, Tito Schipa and Paul Sperry were never going to overwhelm one\u2019s eardrums, yet they are all among my favorite singers. As it turns out, Daniels is the lead tenor (and ofttimes soloist) with The King\u2019s Consort, which I\u2019ve heard several times. Daniels\u2019 voice is more exposed in the sparsely written Butterworth grouping with piano, and here he shows just what a fine artist he is, wrapping his voice around each word and projecting both mood and high musicianship.\nThe recital closes with three Gurney songs in which Daniels is accompanied solely by piano, poetic and quite beautiful. Gurney, considered a poet as well as a musician, suffered a severe mental breakdown in 1918 and although he recovered sufficiently to continue composing he was never the same afterwards. In 1925 he was committed to the Barnwood House in Gloucester, then to the London Mental Hospital. He never recovered and died in 1937, aged 47. Poor Butterworth\u2019s career was also quite brief, as he was shot by a sniper in France at age 31 while fighting in World War I. His body was never recovered. And of course we all know about poor Warlock-Heseltine\u2019s mental disorder. So this CD may be said to be a tribute to three tragic British composers.\nAll in all, an interesting album presenting works of some imagination if not quite genius. Well worth seeking out.",

        "raw_content": "271: Building Social Wealth with Jason Treu\nJason Treu shows how to encourage strong and meaningful connections.\nEasy ways to facilitate more meaningful connections at work\nHow to address your blindspots more quickly\nQuestions to cultivate empathy\nJason is a top business and executive coach. He\u2019s a leading expert on human behavior, influence, sales, networking and leadership. At the heart of his strategy is the understanding that people and your relationships are your true \u201cwealth.\u201d Everything we accomplish in life is with or through other people.\nJason\u2019s Website: JasonTreu.com\nList of questions from the Arthur Aron study as published in The New York Times\nJason Treu Interview Transcript\nJason, thanks so much for joining us here on the How to Be Awesome at Your Job podcast.\nWell, thanks for having me on the show and speaking to your fantastic tribe.\nWell, I want to hear first and foremost about a game and workshop you invented called Cards Against Mundanity. What\u2019s the backstory here?\nWell, probably now going on 18 months or more ago, I was talking to one of my mentors. And they told me that I needed to try to do something that had the potential to go viral, and I needed to pick something big and something I was going to go all in on. And it was just like, \u201cWell, you just need to figure it out and do it.\u201d And although that\u2019s sort of not specific, I knew that there was some big idea. And I went through a list of things I was like, \u201cI really would like to do a TEDx speech, but if I do one, I want to do one that\u2019s a \u201cHow To\u201d speech because then if I finish it, I\u2019ll have something specific that I can translate to a corporate audience or entrepreneurial audience, other people.\nSo, I thought to myself the one thing that I really wanted to try to do was to try to work on some challenge people might have on culture and performance. And so, I spent about three months doing research and I almost gave up because I wanted to find a research and then build the idea around that, not go in with the premise of something that I thought might work, because I thought that ultimately would be flawed and that might lead me to a result that wouldn\u2019t be as good as the one that I would come up with.\nSo, I was looking through some research and I came across this professor \u2013 his name is Arthur Aron \u2013 and he did some research back in 1997, and it was on how to make best friends. And I was like, \u201cThis is pretty interesting.\u201d So I read through the research report, which is always pretty dry. And as I was reading at the end the thing that really jumped out at me was, he did a game with 54 grad students that were complete strangers, had never met each other, had no knowledge of each other or anything else, sat them in front of each other, put 36 questions that they asked each other in only 45 minutes.\nAnd they measured afterwards what those people thought of the experiment, and 30% of the people rated that relationship with the complete strangers that they did not know any knowledge of before, as the closest relationship in their life.\nThat\u2019s pretty amazing. Just think about that \u2013 in 45 minutes someone has done what most people are doing decades or a lifetime \u2013 they had done in 45 minutes. And I thought to myself, \u201cThat is absolutely extraordinary.\u201d And then in the original research study, one of the couples ended up getting married. But the interesting part is that\u2019s 1997 \u2013 pre-social media, so none of the distractions. But he\u2019s done it dozens of times since then and the results have stayed pretty much the same every time that they have done it.\nAnd then the other part of it, I was going across some research by Google, and they were looking at how to build the perfect team. And they hired researchers and they spent three years and millions of dollars, and they could not see any patterns or trends. And then one of their researches walked in on a group and the manager of the group said, \u201cI have stage 4 cancer and I may not make it. I want to let you all know.\u201d And they saw the performance in that team soared over the next six months. And they figured out the only characteristic across all of Google\u2019s 180 teams was psychological safety.\nAnd that\u2019s a fancy word for \u201cvulnerability\u201d, and what that means is that they got to know each other on a deep personal level, they were able to raise controversial ideas and ask questions about people making fun of them or anything else. And that is the basis, and in fact it\u2019s become so embedded in Google\u2019s culture. They had this other business called Project X \u2013 it\u2019s their secret business where they go and try these crazy experiments, and they\u2019re spending I think a billion dollars a year on this business. And the first thing that everyone goes through in training is psychological safety, over everything else.\nSo, when you combine all that, it was like, \u201cOkay, how can we do this in a group scenario?\u201d And so basically I put together cards, like Cards Against Humanity, and you ask questions, such as, \u201cIf you could pick one year of your life to do over, which one would it be and why?\u201d And you share this in a group full of people.\nAnd it\u2019s extremely powerful, people who\u2019ve done it had great results, because you start to bond people over experiences. You get emotionally involved with the people. And the thing about it is when you start to care about other people in the room, your performance goes up, your collaboration goes up, your communication goes up, and it\u2019s just like magic. You\u2019ll see results overnight, and teams have rocketed in their results, and organizations, if you\u2019re a small business. So it\u2019s pretty interesting.\nWell, that\u2019s so cool. And I\u2019ve played with the Arthur Aron\u2019s study, and once on Valentine\u2019s day I was with my girlfriend at the time. I said, \u201cHey, let\u2019s go through these questions.\u201d And sure enough it did facilitate closeness. And I know that Aron has replicated it, in terms of same gender and mixed gender cohorts in doing it. So, with your game, how many questions are there and to what extent are they same versus different than Arthur Aron\u2019s?\nI switched them around; they\u2019re not the same. Some of them are. And so, what I do is I put it in a group full of people, and you can play on the small side of it it\u2019s four people, and I\u2019ve done it up to 15, which is probably the maximum; 12 is probably closer to it. And I asked people to do about three rounds, because I\u2019ve seen that\u2019s the magic number. And the other part of it I changed is that at the end everyone goes around and has one minute to say three things that they learned about people inside of the group, because I found it\u2019s very powerful to be able to do that, because it shows you\u2019re listening and hearing other people.\nAnd one of the things that in research and my TED Talk I found is that if you have a very good to best friend in an organization, your productivity is seven times higher and your retention rate on staying in the organization is seven times if you have that. And so, it\u2019s really to find even one person that you\u2019re really closer to out of this experiment is game-changing for any team or organization. And the other last thing I found is that I\u2019d done this on parallel teams in bigger organizations, meaning they haven\u2019t participated in the same room and you see the results, as long as they know that they\u2019ve both done it.\nYeah, that\u2019s so cool. So then, I\u2019d like to dig in here a bit. So, when you talk about coworkers being able to engage with each other and create these meaningful connections \u2013 so you have one specific tool, which is the card game and that facilitates psychological safety and good friendship formation, which is linked to all kinds of goodness. So, could you share with us in workplaces what are some additional tools or approaches or mechanisms by which we can encourage and facilitate this kind of transformation to take root?\nYeah, so another thing that you can do that I\u2019ve had clients do is when you start off a weekly meeting of any kind, is I\u2019ve had people bring in pictures. And have 30 seconds to a minute and share a story about what that picture means to them and why it\u2019s meaningful. And that builds really great connections and you\u2019ll find that people who do that in a short period of time will rate that meeting as their favorite meeting of the week that they have. And they\u2019ll be way more productive because they have a lot more of emotional investment inside of the organization.\nI found other things, like if you have a meeting with people, if you allow the junior staff to go first and senior people last, you create a lot better conversations between people, and if you get them out, and I think that\u2019s pretty important. I found the other thing too that\u2019s helpful is when you have a big event, is to go back and really have a brainstorm on what went right, what didn\u2019t go right. But do it in a very productive way, where there is no right or wrong answer necessarily.\nAt the beginning and you start to have a brainstorm and then you whittle it down, because then everyone has a voice and you get all of the people to communicate. And that\u2019s why creating psychological safety is so important, because what happens is that a lot of the greatest ideas in the business aren\u2019t getting shared, because no one\u2019s putting them forward, because they don\u2019t know where to go to.\nSo I\u2019d say the last thing, and a quick thing is, people who own businesses or are at a senior-level often get entrenched and never really communicate with people in the organization. And so, I have them walk around for 15 minutes three times a week and just talk to people about what\u2019s going on in their life. And they immediately see significant results, because it shows people that you care. And I think that if you start to do that, you\u2019ll have people come up to you with ideas, suggestions, they\u2019ll be much more engaged, because the key element of building trust, which is the fabric that holds everything together, is caring. And that is the one factor that trumps everything else. And so you\u2019ve got to deeply care about the people and organization and have everyone do that from the top down, or you\u2019re missing out on a lot of productivity.\nI love it. Jason, you went right to the actionable tactics, which is great fun and so handy. And so then, you sort of, I guess, synthesized a number of the drivers for why this stuff works into a few key principles, which you lay out in your book Social Wealth. Can you orient us to that a bit?\nWell, one of the things I did with the book Social Wealth is I wanted to do a \u201cHow To\u201d guide on how to build relationships, because I found they\u2019re really learned behaviors, and I think a lot of people believe that they\u2019re born with these skills, and if they don\u2019t have them, then they won\u2019t be good at them or they\u2019re introverts or socially awkward, which is really the majority of people. And so then they just opt out or they just don\u2019t have great relationships or they settle for way less than they should.\nSo I wanted to go through and have it so people could understand that there are great ways to meet people, build these skillsets. It\u2019s just like going and getting in shape. If you go once a month, you probably won\u2019t be in great shape, unless you have freaky genetics. So, you\u2019ve got to go and do that. And the reality is the most important capital we\u2019ll ever have in our life is the relationships that we build with people. No one had a tombstone that said, \u201cI worked a good life.\u201d That\u2019s not happening. So, it\u2019s the relationships and the experience. My dad passed away\u2026\nSeveral years ago. He shared with me in a moment at the end that he was like, \u201cI should\u2019ve invested more in the relationships and in people, because there\u2019s a lot of regret I have with relationships in my life.\u201d And I thought to myself, \u201cThat\u2019s pretty wise words from someone who\u2019s hours away from passing away.\u201d And I truly believe that in the end the only thing we\u2019re going to look back is the relationships that we had built; nothing else. So we need to spend time doing this.\nI think also what\u2019s happening is that you\u2019re seeing that there is no work-life balance, there is no work-life integration. Basically what\u2019s happening \u2013 people who work \u2013 their friends are at their job, they\u2019re one and the same. And so you\u2019ve got to be able to navigate that, you\u2019ve got to be able to build these relationships, you\u2019ve got to understand how to do it, and build the best ones for you. And that you are going to have to change those relationships over time, because just like there\u2019s a great quote by this movie Stand By Me, and it said, \u201cFriends will come in and out of your life like busboys in a restaurant.\u201d And I really believe that.\nNow you\u2019re going to have some good friends that might last for a whole lifetime, but a lot of people won\u2019t evolve the same way you will and they\u2019ll go in other directions. And if you continue to hold on to those relationships, those are the ones that hurt us the most because they tend to start being 70/30, 80/20, and then we feel used and taken advantage of, and they take a really big emotional toll. When the reality is then when you get out of balance you should have a conversation, and at some point you\u2019re just going to have to let them go, if they don\u2019t readjust and swing back.\nInteresting. Now when you say 70/30, 80/20, you mean sort of like the give-take?\nYeah, the give-take, yes.\nAnd so, that\u2019s intriguing. Could you give us an example of that unfolding? So, how one person maybe grows in maybe a greater or different direction than another, and as a result there\u2019s more taking that evolves, and then how that conversation could go?\nI think if you look at a person who is focused on their career, on their personal growth, on creating a better version of themselves \u2013 there\u2019s not that many percentage of people that are doing those types of things, right?\nJason, I\u2019d love it if you could drop a number for us. Rough guesstimate inside your heart and mind.\nI probably would say 5 or 10%. I think that may be even optimistic. But I think the challenge is if you\u2019re of those people or maybe a version of that slightly down, that\u2019s at least 75% committed to that, and you\u2019re around people that are very complacent or okay with what\u2019s going on and are not looking to be accountable in their life and looking to overcome challenges and are willing to choose paths to help them get better \u2013 they\u2019re going to eventually drag you down, because they are looking out for themselves and they\u2019re not going to be in a situation where they\u2019re givers. And that is the challenge that we all have.\nSo when that starts to happen, you emotionally more invest in people \u2013 you\u2019ll start calling them more, you\u2019ll start planning things more, you\u2019ll start spending more money when you go out and do stuff. You\u2019ll see all these things start, the tide will turn. And you then have to have conversations with people about that and then take a hard look at the relationship you have with people, and that can either be personally or professionally. And then you\u2019ve got to make some decisions based on their response and your interaction. If they\u2019re committed to their own growth and their own creation of a better version of themselves, or if they\u2019re fine sitting in their comfort zone and complacency, and that is where they\u2019re committed to stay.\nOkay, thank you. So then, I\u2019d love to hear some more, in terms of the skills and principles to bear in mind as you\u2019re going about living life and doing work. How do you recommend that we go about engaging with others to create all the more meaningful connections that we can make?\nI think that the key is, change comes from the inside out. And the first step is self-awareness, and understanding your own emotions and how you\u2019re reacting to situations. So I think it\u2019s important to go back and understand and find out what are your blind spots. What are the patterns that can sabotage your own success? Because if you don\u2019t, you\u2019re going to have a difficult time interacting with other people, because you won\u2019t understand why you\u2019re torpedoing your relationships or not building them forward. You\u2019ll think it\u2019s someone else, luck, or all these other things, when the reality is that everyone has these challenges, and you just have to start to identify them.\nSo, for instance an example would be, I had a client and I did sales training a couple of years ago. And this woman came up, and she has a pretty high-pitched voice and she was in her mid-30s and was saying, \u201cI want to sell better. I\u2019ve been doing well\u2026\u201d And this is in front of her peers and other managers. And I was like, \u201cOkay, let\u2019s talk about this.\u201d And we ended up getting out of her that she felt shame, that she was really despondent, she felt she wasn\u2019t good enough.\nAnd the reason stemmed from back in high school and college, whenever she got on the phone and she talked to her mother or grandmother, they would make fun of her voice. And they would say things like, \u201cYou\u2019re never going to be successful in business. You\u2019re never going to get married. You need to lower the tone of your voice.\u201d And they almost always mentioned it to her, and it\u2019s something that stuck in her head. So now, every time when she gets on the phone with clients, that tape is running in the back of her head. So, you could tell her how to build better relationships, but that\u2019s not the issue in and of itself. It\u2019s the fact that you\u2019ve got to turn that on its head and eliminate that, because otherwise she\u2019s going to be maybe a little bit more successful, but not much, because those things are going to continually hold her back.\nSo, that self-awareness and fixing that issue and challenge is going to go a significant amount of way, because then you can teach people the next step, which is more social awareness and the emotions, thoughts and behaviors you can sense then in other people and better relate to them. And that is how you build faster, quicker relationships. But if you can\u2019t relate to yourself, then you\u2019re not going to be able to do it with other people, if that makes sense.\nUnderstood. So then what are some of your top suggestions for getting that self-awareness, and surfacing and addressing blind spots quickly?\nWell, the challenge is you really ultimately need help from someone else, because our brain is wired to keep us safe. It is not wired to keep us happy, so it blacks out these things. Now, what you can start doing is start asking yourself, \u201cOkay, what behavior do I want to change?\u201d The next question to someone else is, \u201cWhat are the stories that I\u2019ve made up in my head about that behavior?\u201d For instance if it\u2019s, \u201cI want to lose weight in the new year\u201d, and the story is, \u201cWell, I can\u2019t lose weight because people are constantly making fun of me, people won\u2019t interact with me because I\u2019m overweight, and that\u2019s holding me back.\u201d Okay, that\u2019s great.\nWell, then you start to look in what emotions that is coming up from, what emotions are you feeling when you feel that you aren\u2019t losing weight and you aren\u2019t making progress? And then you start to battle and grapple with that, and then you start asking yourself questions around, \u201cWhat are the limiting beliefs that come up when I feel those emotions? I\u2019m not good enough, I\u2019m not smart enough, I\u2019m not pretty enough\u201d, I\u2019m whatever it is. And then you ask yourself, \u201cWhen\u2019s the first time that I\u2019ve ever felt that way that I remember?\u201d\nAnd you really have to push yourself, because then that starts to jog a memory in your head about when was the first time you felt like that, because then it starts to trigger patterns and show you what\u2019s gone on, and when and how long and pervasive this has been. And you can start linking it back. And then you have to go back up the stack and you have to say, \u201cOkay, if weight was not an issue and I was in great shape, then what beliefs would I have around that? I\u2019m enough, I\u2019m awesome. What emotions would I be feeling? What stories what I have around the world around me?\u201d And then you can start reverse engineering what it is and how you\u2019re feeling, and then start to read that, take a look at it, and then take actions.\nBut the other part of it too is that I found that there are two things that people mistake. One is motivation and drive. And motivation is very fleeting. It\u2019s like we\u2019ve all read a book or seen a movie or done something and we\u2019ve been like, \u201cMan, that\u2019s awesome. That\u2019s great, I love that.\u201d And the next day nothing happens. Well, the differences is drive, is you understand the \u201cWhy\u201d behind whatever you\u2019re doing, and you will do that. For instance you will run when it is 10 degrees outside; you\u2019ll not make an excuse that it\u2019s too cold, because the drive is much more powerful. But you have to ask yourself questions: \u201cSo why am I doing this? Why is that goal or what I want, why do I want it?\u201d\nAnd then you have to ask yourself the harder question: \u201cWhat am I lacking in my life that that goal is going to help me with?\u201d Because once you do that, then in both of those questions you can move forward and you\u2019ll be really successful because now you\u2019ll be holding up basically an accountability in and of yourself, and getting to the real answers, instead of letting yourself off the hook and dealing at the surface level. Then you can start really having much greater self-awareness, and you can create massive change in your life really quickly.\nOh, excellent. So from that point of having collected some self-awareness, what are some of your top suggestions for building that social awareness?\nSo I would say one, you need to practice empathy, because I think when you can practice empathy with people, you can start to understand their viewpoint and you will find common ground much quicker. I tell all my clients and in my conversations with my friends I say, \u201cYou\u2019ve got two choices in life \u2013 you can be right or you can be happy. Rarely can you be both. So which one do you want?\u201d\nWhen you cut it down like that, then you have to realize that is a significant part of life. And I think when you have more empathy, the other thing that happens is that you\u2019re able to have more difficult conversations with people, because really that\u2019s the requirement for being a great leader or a manager, is having difficult conversations when you don\u2019t want to have them, because then what happens is that you get a greater understanding of the people around you, of the challenges, of emotions, and then you\u2019re on the same page.\nAnd that really is game-changing, because then you don\u2019t have this stuff bottled up for months, years or whatever, or never have it. And then that will make a significant conversation. With empathy there is listening skills \u2013 that\u2019s a requirement to do that. I think you start doing a few of these things, you\u2019re going to see significant changes in how people respond to you or people interact with you, how people want to help you, because it will be different than how they are interacting with other people.\nOkay. Now when we talk about some of these empathy elements, do you have any favorite questions that you use either to ask yourself internally, or to ask the person that you\u2019re speaking with, that sort of naturally cultivates more empathy?\nWell, I like to ask people questions\u2026 In my head I try to ask myself, \u201cWhat would the other person be thinking or feeling?\u201d Not how I would be doing it. And then that helps me put me in a frame that takes me out of my defensive posture, and also puts me more in the moment. The other thing too is I try to listen without formulating my counter-argument, because if you do that\u2026 That\u2019s what people do, typically they\u2019re not really listening and they don\u2019t really hear what the other person is saying.\nAnd I ask clarifying questions. So, if someone says to me, \u201cYou know what? Jason, I\u2019m really upset with you because you didn\u2019t show up for my party or event.\u201d And then I\u2019ll tell them why, and then I\u2019ll be like, \u201cOkay. Well, is there another reason? Is it because you feel like I haven\u2019t been showing up?\u201d And if they say \u201cYes\u201d or \u201cNo\u201d, I try to ask a clarifying question, like, \u201cOkay. Well, there\u2019s something else going on here. We need to dig deeper in order to figure it out, because I\u2019m willing to do whatever it takes. I just don\u2019t know and I need your help to understand why it is that you\u2019re feeling this way and what actions I can take to make the situation better.\u201d So you have to dig down and keep asking \u201cWhy?\u201d and ask clarifying questions, and then I think you can get at the heart of the matter, because usually it\u2019s several layers deep.\nAnd that takes some courage too, because it could be like, \u201cWell, because, Jason, you always do this.\u201d You tell me. We could role-play a little bit. \u201cBecause, Jason, you always do this, and you\u2019re one of my best friends. And you said you\u2019d make it and you didn\u2019t. And so, it just makes me kind of wonder what can I really count on you for, and it just makes things feel pretty darn insecure.\u201d\nYeah. And I think what you\u2019d say to someone in that situation is that, \u201cI hear what you\u2019re saying, and being late and not showing up is a problem. So I\u2019ll make a commitment to you that if I say that I am going to come, I\u2019m going to come. And if I can\u2019t make it, I\u2019m going to tell you I can\u2019t make it and not feel bad, because the problem is I feel bad if I can\u2019t make it, so I just always say \u2018Yes\u2019. And I need to draw more clear boundaries and communicate them better, because the way that I\u2019ve been acting is not helpful and it\u2019s not considerate of your feelings, your effort, your time and everything else, and I have to be accountable for that.\u201d\nAnd what I like about this is, it sounds almost like yeah, of course, we should always do this. But it\u2019s not as much common practice as it may be common sense.\nIt isn\u2019t at all. And the problem when you don\u2019t do this is that people harbor ill will and you don\u2019t know why that is. And if you\u2019re in a business setting, that undermines what\u2019s going on, because then people\u2019s retention goes down, they sabotage projects, they don\u2019t put forward their best effort, they don\u2019t help people collaborate. All this stuff is a chain reaction. And the same thing obviously in your personal life.\nSo, the key thing is, you have to be accountable, and that requires you to lower your ego and you\u2019re going to have to put it in a different place and realize that you don\u2019t have all the answers, and you are on a journey and you\u2019re going to have to pivot constantly in your life. Now, if you\u2019re unwilling to be in that situation and you\u2019d rather be right than happy, then you\u2019re going to be getting very limited results in your life and you\u2019re going to live a very, very small life.\nOkay, so big stakes. Jason, thanks for this. Tell me, is there anything else you really want to make sure to highlight before we shift gears and hear about some of your favorite things?\nI would say that if you\u2019re going to go out and start building relationships both personally and professionally, the key thing is to get in the right rooms with people, because I feel like if you\u2019re not there, then it\u2019s a waste of time. And the places that I love to go that are gold mines are charity organizations, because they have movers and shakers, people who are socially aware, that care, are successful people; cultural places such as museums, symphony, opera; and the other place, which may have a mix of people but at least they have things that you\u2019d be interested in, is interest groups, like running groups, art groups, painting, book clubs, whatever it might be. Those are great places to meet people, because you have things in common. And I think a group scenario\u2019s helpful, because then you can meet a lot of people quickly in those organizations, and people have their defenses down, so they\u2019re much more open and it\u2019s much easier to meet them and to build relationships. And obviously that helps you both personally and professionally.\nAlright, thank you. Well, now, could you share with us a favorite quote, something you find inspiring?\nYeah, so the quote that I really like is a quote from Maya Angelou, who said, \u201cI\u2019ve learned that people forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.\u201d And I think unless we really understand the true role of emotions in our life, and being able to relate to other people and how powerful that is, we\u2019re setting ourselves up to live a really small life, because people \u2013 it\u2019s about how you make them feel when you engage and interact with them. It\u2019s not an intellectual contest.\nReally, I would say anything by Bren\u00e9 Brown. She\u2019s a great author on leadership and management. And she\u2019s a shame researcher and she has the top five most downloaded TED Talk of all time called The Power of Vulnerability, and she really talks about a lot of these issues on shame, vulnerability, how to build better relationships. And I think it can get at the real nuggets that are going to help you both in your professional and personal life. And every time I hear her speak \u2013 and I\u2019ve heard her several times \u2013 she\u2019s brilliant in what she does. So, I would highly recommend her, and she has quite a few books out, so you really can\u2019t go wrong with any of them.\nOh, thank you. And how about a favorite habit, something that helps you be awesome at your job?\nAgain, I use two things. One is an accountability mirror \u2013 to ask myself every day what am I opting out of doing, and why? Because that helps me keep real in what\u2019s going on and not procrastinate and put stuff off. The other thing is, I just go old-fashioned, I use Google Calendar and I schedule everything in for the week.\nI sit down on Friday or Saturday or Sunday at the absolute latest and put in time when I\u2019m going to work out, I\u2019m going to go do meetings, after at night, or whatever I\u2019m going to do, so I can see what I need to do. And when I need to wake up, and the rest of the things that I need to do during the week, because I feel like you\u2019d be way more productive when you know what you have to do and you\u2019ll procrastinate a lot less, because you\u2019ll understand what\u2019s possible and what\u2019s not, based on the calendar that you have. And also if you don\u2019t have any free time, you\u2019re going to find out that you\u2019re going to turn into someone in business who\u2019s very tactical, and you\u2019re probably putting out all these fires and not being strategic, which means you\u2019re not really working to your capability, and the organization itself is suffering. So, you\u2019ve got to block out time and you\u2019ve got to use it.\nThank you. And is there a particular nugget that you share that seems to really connect with folks and gets quoted back to you frequently?\nAgain, I think that the one thing I found from doing my TEDx Talk with people is that you will build relationships a hundred times faster if you\u2019re vulnerable. But the key is that everyone wants everyone else to be vulnerable, but they don\u2019t want to be vulnerable themselves. So what you have to do is be vulnerable first, and share something, even very small, because when you\u2019re vulnerable and you share, people unconsciously believe that it\u2019s safe for them to share because you led with it, and they\u2019ve been taught that their life when people do that.\nSo, be vulnerable, lead with something, and ask really great questions. The questions I like to ask people initially when I meet them is like, \u201cWhat are you most excited about in your life right now?\u201d Or a question might be like, \u201cWhat are you passionate about at work?\u201d or, \u201cWhat are you passionate about in your life?\u201d, because it gets to the core things that people care about.\nAnd you can ask that during a first conversation; you don\u2019t need to wait. Waiting around is just because you feel like that\u2019s a story in your head that needs to happen. Because I do it all the time, and it leads to way better conversations and I speed up the relationship-building process really fast, because I\u2019m getting to real conversations when I meet someone the first time. I\u2019m not waiting until the third, fourth, fifth or tenth.\nExcellent, thank you. And Jason, if folks want to learn more or get in touch with you, where would you point them?\nSo, they can go my website at JasonTreu.com. And then if they want they can go download the game that we talked about in the beginning \u2013 Cards Against Mundanity \u2013 at CardsAgainstMundanity.com. So, playing it is free, and you can get results, and you can play with your friends. And you can play you\u2019re your wife, so you have a Valentine\u2019s Day thing.\nOh, thank you. And do you have a final challenge or call to action you\u2019d issue to folks seeking to be awesome at their jobs?\nI think it\u2019s true, and it may seem trite, but all growth comes outside of your comfort zone. So if you don\u2019t feel like you\u2019re doing something that\u2019s scary or making you feel awkward, you aren\u2019t really pushing yourself. And you\u2019ll find the people that are the most successful are learning to deal with more and more uncertainty, but dealing with it in a healthy way. And that requires years and years, so you might as well get started now and just you\u2019re going to see your life go in some magnificent directions.\nAwesome. Well, Jason, thank you so much for sharing this great stuff. I wish you tons of luck, and hope that you keep on rocking with your coaching and your mundanity-breaking, and all that you\u2019re up to!\nYes. Thanks a lot, and thanks for having me on the show!\nInfluenceKF #20. Interpersonal SavvyKF #21. Builds NetworksKF #30. Self-DevelopmentRelationships",

        "raw_content": "The simulation hypothesis and other things I don\u2019t believe\nSome years ago at SciFoo I sat through a session by Nick Bostrom, director of the Future of Humanity Institute, who elaborated on the risk that we live in a computer simulation and somebody might pull the plug, thereby deliberately or accidentally erasing all of mankind.\nMy mind keeps wandering back to Bostrom\u2019s session. You might think that discussing the probability of human extinction due to war, disease or accident is a likely cause of insomnia. The simulation hypothesis in particular is the stuff that dreams and nightmares are made of - a modern religion with an omnipotent programmer. In this light, it is not so surprising that the simulation hypothesis is popular on the internet, though Keanu Reeves clearly had a role in this popularity, which now gives me an excuse to decorate my blog with his photo.\nBut while I do sometimes get headaches over questions concerning the nature of reality, the simulation hypothesis is not among the things that keep me up at night (neither is Keanu Reeves, thanks for asking). After some soul searching I realized that I don\u2019t believe in the simulation hypothesis for the same reason I don\u2019t believe in alien abductions. Before science fiction literature and its alien characters became popular, there was no such thing as alien abduction. Instead, people commonly thought they were possessed by demons. It is believed today that sleep paralysis is a likely origin of hallucinations and out-of-body experiences, an interesting topic on its own right, but the point here is that popular culture creates hypotheses, and present culture is a collective limit to our imagination.\nPeople today ponder the idea that reality is a computer simulation in the same way that post-Newtonian intellectuals thought of the universe as a clockwork. The clockwork universe theory seems bizarre today, now that we know many things that Newtonian mechanics cannot describe. But then people used to wear strange wigs and women stood around in dresses barely able to walk, let alone breathe, so what did they know. And chances are, 200 years from now the simulation hypothesis will seem equally bizarre as the idea to transfer fat from the butt to the lips or take notes by rubbing graphite on paper.\nA more scientific way to phrase this is that the simulation hypothesis creates a coincidence problem, much like the coincidence problem for the cosmological constant. For the cosmological constant the coincidence problem is this: Throughout the expansion of the universe, matter dilutes and the constant stays constant. Why do we just happen to live in a period when both have about the same value? For the simulation hypothesis the coincidence problem is this: Why do we just happen to live in a period where we discover the very means by which the universe is run?\nTo me, it\u2019s too much of a coincidence to be plausible. I will put this down as a corollary of the Principle of Finite Imagination \u201cJust because humans do not or cannot imagine something doesn\u2019t mean it does not or cannot exist.\u201d Corollary: \u201cIf humans put forward a hypothesis based on something they have just learned to imagine, it is most likely a cultural artifact and not of fundamental relevance.\u201d Though the possibility exists that present day human imagination is the eclipse of scientific insight, the wish to be special vastly amplifies believes in this possibility.\nThat having been said, another way to approach the question is to ask for scientific evidence of the simulation hypothesis. There has been some work on this, and occasionally it appears on the arxiv, such as this paper last year which studied the possibility that The Simulator runs state-of-the art lattice QCD. I find it peripherally interesting and applaud the authors for applying scientific thought to vagueness (for other attempts at this, check their reference list). Alas, the scenario that Bostrom has in mind is infinitely meaner than theirs. As he explains in this paper, to save on calculational power only that part of reality is simulated that is currently observed:\n\u201cIn order to get a realistic simulation of human experience, much less [than simulating the entire universe] is needed \u2013 only whatever is required to ensure that the simulated humans, interacting in normal human ways with their simulated environment, don\u2019t notice any irregularities.\u201d\nSo you\u2019d never observe any effects of finite lattice spacing because whenever you look all symmetries are restored. Wicked. It also creates other scientific problems.\nTo begin with, unless you want to populate the simulation by hand, you need a process in which self-awareness is created out of simpler bits. And to prevent self-aware beings from noting the simulation\u2019s limits, you then need a monitoring program that identifies when the self-aware parts attempt to make an observation and exactly which observation. Then you need to provide them with this observation, so that the observation is the same as they would have gotten had you run the full simulation. This might work fine in some cases, say, vacuum fluctuations, because nobody really cares what a vacuum fluctuation does when you\u2019re not looking. If you have a complex system however, reducing the complexity systematically and blowing it back up is difficult if not impossible.\nTake a system that\u2019s still fairly simple, like a galaxy. If nobody is pointing a telescope at it, you don\u2019t want to bother with its time evolution. But then how do you make sure that observations at different times are consistent? And then there\u2019s the possibility that somewhere in the galaxy that humans weren\u2019t observing intelligent life developed that would one day land on planet Earth. If your simulation by design doesn\u2019t take into account events like this, it\u2019s strangely anthropocentric. It also then raises the question why bother with 7 billion people to begin with? Would not an island do, and the rest of us pop in and out of existence to amuse the islanders? This reminds me, I have to book a flight to Iceland.\nTo avoid these problems, The Simulator would use a much simpler method: deter observations that might test the limits, much like it is difficult to reach the boundary of Dark City. And suddenly it makes sense, doesn\u2019t it? All the recent budget cuts to research funding, even in areas like theoretical physics, the possibly most cost-efficient insight engine running on little more than graphite rubbing on paper. It\u2019s all to deter us from discovering the boundaries of our simulation. Now if saying hello to the programmer who runs the simulation we live in isn\u2019t an argument to support basic research, then I don\u2019t know what is. I\u2019ll leave you with this thought and book my flight before I pop out of existence again.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 8:38 AM 44 comments: Labels: Random Thoughts, Rant\nBook review: \"The Theoretical Minimum\" by Susskind and Hrabovsky\nBy Leonard Susskind, George Hrabovski\nSusskind made his lecture notes into a book and did a great job. His book is explicitly not aimed at students but at everybody with an interest in physics who wants to expand their toolkit and start speaking the language of physicists.\nThe book primarily covers classical mechanics: momentum and forces, energy and potentials, up to the principle of least action, Hamiltonian mechanics and poisson brackets. In content it is very similar to the lecture notes that I learned from, it might also remind you of Goldstein's classical book on classical mechanics. However, what's special about Susskind's book is that he introduces along the way all the mathematical concepts that are needed, starting with vectors and functions to integration and differentiation. The book is thus very self-contained and yet really brief and to the point, which is quite an achievement.\nIt seems pretty obvious that there will be a sequel to this book that continues this educational effort.\nI appreciate this book very much. It would have been dramatically useful for me when I was a teenager, because there is a gap in the physics literature between high school level and the level aimed at students, a gap this book can bridge. However, if you think this book will bring to up to speed with modern physics, you got it wrong. It's a long way to quantum field theory and there really are no shortcuts. Susskind's book, and the ones that will probably follow, however might be the shortest route, the one of least action so to say.\nThat having been said, I'm not a teenager anymore and frankly don't have much use for the book. Which is why I'll give away my copy for free. The book will go to the first person who has a mailing address in Europe and leaves a comment to this blogpost telling us why you want the book and what is your interest in physics.\nUpdate: The book is gone.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 8:26 AM 20 comments: Labels: Books, Physics\nThumbs up for the Cambridge University Press Customer Service\nSome years ago, I bought a copy of Stephani et al's book \"Exact Solutions of Einstein's Field Equations\" from Cambridge University Press. It's pretty much an encyclopedia of all that's known about Einstein's Field Equations. It's the type of book you turn to for advice when you've got a problem, not a textbook you read front to back. So I hope you'll forgive me when I say it took me a few months to notice that the copy I bought was a misprint with several empty pages towards the middle. These are the obscurer parts of the book whose physical applications are at least to me somewhat unclear, and I thought I would just never need whatever should have been printed on these pages anyway.\nOver the years however I developed the distinct paranoia that whenever I was looking for something that I could not find in Stephani's book, it was certainly printed on the missing pages. Some time last week, frustrated by yet another intractable set of equations one gets without a good ansatz for the metric, I wrote to Cambridge University Press customer service, complaining about the misprint, with the above photo attached.\nNeedless to say, several years after purchasing the book I don't have a receipt. Nevertheless, I got a reply within 24 hours, with an apology for the misprint. Alas, the hardcover version that I have is out of print, if a paperback would be okay. \"Sure\", I wrote back. They asked for my shipping address and a week later I have a brand new copy, all for free. Now if I don't find an answer to a problem I was looking for, I have no empty pages to blame any more.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 7:56 AM 9 comments: Labels: Books\nThe Future of Peer Review\nThis week's cover of The Economist.\nA year ago, I told you what I think is the future of scientific peer review: Peer review that is conducted independently from the submission of a manuscript to a journal. You would get a report from an institution offering such a service, possibly some already existing publisher, possibly some new institution specifically created for this purpose. This report you could then use together with submission of your paper to a journal, but you could also use it with open access databases. You could even use it in company with your grant proposals if that seems suitable. I call it pre-print peer review.\nI argued earlier that, irrespective of what you think about this, it's going to happen. You just have to extrapolate the present situation: There is a lot of anger among scientists about publishers who charge high subscription fees. And while I know some tenured people who simply don't bother with journal publication any more and just upload their papers to the arXiv, most scientists need the approval stamp that a journal publication presently provides: it shows that peer review has taken place. The easiest way to break this dependence on journals is to offer peer review by other means. This will make the peer review process more to the point and more effective.\nThe benefit of this change over other, more radical, changes that have been proposed is that it stays very close to the present model in that the procedure of peer review itself need not be changed. It's just the provider that changes.\nI am thus really excited that the recent issue of Nature reports that one such service exists now and another one is about to be created:\nCompany offers portable peer review\nAuthor-pays service cuts down on redundant reviews.\nBy Richard Van Noorden\nThe one that already exists is called Peerage of Science, based in Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4, Finland. Yeah, right, the Nordic people, they're always a little faster than the rest of the world. Peerage of Science seems to have launched a little more than a year ago, but this is the first time I've heard of it. The one in the making is US based and the project is managed by a guy called Keith Collier.\nOf course it's difficult to say whether such a change will catch on. Academia has a large inertia, and it depends a lot on whether people will accept independent reviews. But I am confident, so let me make a prediction, just for the fun of it: In 5 years there will be a dozen of such services, some run by publishers. In ten years, most of peer review will take place this way.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 7:28 AM 11 comments: Labels: Academia, Peer Review\nThe end of science is near, again.\nThe recent Nature issue has a comment titled\nScientific genius is extinct\nby Dean Keith Simonton who is professor of psychology at UC Davis. Ah, wait, according to his website he isn't just professor, he is Distinguished Professor. His piece is subscription only, so let me briefly summarize what he writes. Simonton notes it has become rare that new disciplines of science are being created:\n\u201cOur theories and instruments now probe the earliest seconds and farthest reaches of the Universe, and we can investigate the tiniest of life forms and the shortest-lived of subatomic particles. It is difficult to imagine that scientists have overlooked some phenomenon worthy of its own discipline alongside astronomy physics, chemistry and biology. For more than a century, any new discipline has been a hybrid of one of these, such as astrophysics, biochemistry or astrobiology. Future advances are likely to build on what is already known rather than alter the foundations of knowledge. One of the biggest recent scientific accomplishments is the discovery of the Higgs boson \u2013 the existence of which was predicted decades ago.\u201d\nHe argues that scientific progress will not stall, but what\u2019s going to happen is that we\u2019ll be filling in the dots in a landscape whose rough features are now known:\n\u201cJust as athletes can win an Olympic gold medal by beating the world record only by a fraction of a second, scientists can continue to receive Nobel prizes for improving the explanatory breadth of theories of the preciseness of measurements.\u201d\nI have some issues with his argument\nFirst, he doesn\u2019t actually discuss scientific genius or any other type of genius. He is instead talking about the foundation of knowledge that he seems to imagine as building blocks of scientific disciplines. While it seems fair to say that the creation of a new scientific discipline scores high on the genius scale, it\u2019s not a necessary criterion. Simonton acknowledges\n\u201c[I]f anything, scientists today might require more raw intelligence to become a first-rate researcher than it took to become a genius during\u2026 the scientific revolution in the sixteenth and seventeenth century, given how much information and experience researchers must now acquire to become proficient.\u201d\nbut one is still left wondering what he means with genius to begin with, or why it appears in the title of his comment if he doesn\u2019t explain or discuss it.\nSecond, I am unhappy with his imagery of the foundations of knowledge, which I must have as I believe in reductionism. The foundation is, always, what\u2019s the currently most fundamental theory and it presently resides in physics. Other disciplines have their own \u201cknowledge\u201d that exists independently of physics, because the derivation of other discipline\u2019s \u201cknowledge\u201d is not presently possible, or if it was, it would be entirely impractical.\nThe difference between these two images matters: In Simonton\u2019s image there\u2019s each discipline and its knowledge. In my image there\u2019s physics and the presently unknown relations between physics and other theories (and thereby these theories among each other). You see then what Simonton is missing: Yes, we know the very large and the very small quite well. But our understanding of complex systems and their behavior has only just begun. Now if we understand better the complex systems that are subject of study in disciplines like biology, neuroscience and politics, this might not create a new discipline in that the name would probably not change. But it has the potential to vastly increase our understanding of the world around us, in very contrast to the incremental improvements that Simonton believes we\u2019re headed towards. Simonton\u2019s argument is akin to saying that once one knows the anatomy of the human body, the rest of medicine is just details.\nThird, he has a very limited imagination. I am imagining extraterrestrial life making use of chemistry entirely alien to ours, with cultures entirely different from ours, or disembodied conscious beings floating through the multiverse. You can see what I\u2019m saying: there\u2019s more to the universe than we have seen so far and there is really no telling what we\u2019ll find if we keep on looking.\nFourth, he is underestimating the relevance of what we don\u2019t know. Simonton writes\n\u201cThe core disciplines have accumulated not so much anomalies as mere loose ends that will be tidied up one way or another. A possible exception is theoretical physics, which is as yet unable to integrate gravity with the other three forces of nature.\u201d\nI guess he deserves credit for having heard or quantum gravity. Yes, the foundations are incomplete. But that's not a small missing piece, it's huge, and nobody knows how huge.\nTo draw upon an example I used earlier, imagine that our improved knowledge of the fundamental ingredients of our theories would allow us to create synthetic nuclei (molecei) that would not have been produced by any natural processes anywhere in the universe. They would have their own chemistry, their own biology, and would interact with the matter we already have in novel ways. Now you could complain that this would be just another type of chemistry rather than a new discipline, but that\u2019s just nomenclature. The relevant point is that this would be a dramatic discovery affecting all of the natural sciences. You never know what you\u2019ll find if you follow the loose ends.\nIn summary: It might be true what Simonton says, that we have made pretty much all major discoveries and everything that is now to come will be incremental. Or it might not be true. I really do not see what evidence his \u201cthesis\u201d, as he calls it, is based upon, other than stating the obvious, that the low hanging fruits are the first to be eaten.\nAside: John Barrow in his book \u201cImpossibility\u201d discussed the three different scenarios of scientific progress: progress ending, asymptotically stagnating, or forever expanding. I found it considerably more insightful than Simonton\u2019s vague comment.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 7:58 AM 24 comments: Labels: Rant, Science\nBook review \"The Edge of Physics\" by Anil Ananthaswamy\nThe Edge of Physics: A Journey to Earth's Extremes to Unlock the Secrets of the Universe\nMariner Books (January 14, 2011)\nIn \"The Edge of Physics\", Ananthaswamy takes the reader on a trip to some of the presently most exciting experiments in physics. The Soudan Mine where physicists are looking for direct detection of dark matter, the Baikal Lake with its underwater neutrino detectors, the Square Kilometre Array in South Africa, the VLT in Chile, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole, and others more before he finishes his travels at CERN in Geneva.\nAlong this trip one learns a lot not only about the scenery, but also about physics and the history of physics. Ananthaswamy doesn't add the experiments as an afterthought to elaborations on quantum mechanics and special relativity, but the experiments and the people working on them take lead. His theoretical explanations are brief but to the point. The appendix contains the shortest summaries of the Standard Model and the Concordance Model that I've ever seen. He explains enough so the reader can understand which new physics the experiments are looking for and what the relevance is, but always quickly comes back to show how this search proceeds in reality.\nI found this book hugely enjoyable because it is not your typical popular science book. I didn't have to make my way through yet another chapter that promises to explain general relativity without equations, and I learned quite some things along the way. It's amazing how many details experimentalists have to think about that would never have occurred to me. Ananthaswamy tells stories of people who found their destiny, stories of courage, stories of trial and error, and some quite dramatic accidents and almost accidents. It's a very well written narrative.\nI have only one complaint about this book which is that it would have very much benefited from some illustrations, be that to explain the CMB power spectrum, the generations and families in the Standard Model, the thermal history of the universe, or sketches of the experiments and their parts.\nIn summary, I can recommend this book to everybody with an interest in contemporary physics or the history of physics. If you have no clue about particle physics or cosmology whatsoever, you might not be able to follow some of the explanations, which are really brief. But even then you'll still take something away from this book. I'd give \"The Edge of Physics\" 5 out of 5 stars.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 8:20 AM 4 comments: Labels: Astrophysics, Books, Particle Physics, Physics\nConsequences of using the journal impact factor\nAn interesting paper that should be mandatory literature for everybody making decisions on grant or job application, especially for those people impressed by high profile journals on publication lists:\nDeep Impact: Unintended consequences of journal rank\nBj\u00f6rn Brembs, Marcus Munaf\u00f2\narXiv:1301.3748 [cs.DL]\nIt's a literature review that sends a clear message about the journal impact factor. The authors argue the impact factor is useless in the best case and harmful to science in the worst case.\nThe annually updated Thomson Reuters journal impact factor (IF) is, in principle, the number of citations to articles in a journal divided by the number of all articles in that journal. In practice, there is some ambiguity about what counts as \"article\" that is subject of negotiation with Thomson Reuters. For example, journals that publish editorials will not want them to count among the articles because they get rarely cited in the scientific literature. Unfortunately, this freedom in negotiation results in a lack of transparency that casts doubt on the objectivity of the IF. While I knew that, the problem seems to be worse than I thought. Brembs and Munaf\u00f2 quote some findings:\n\"For instance, the numerator and denominator values for Current Biology in 2002 and 2003 indicate that while the number of citations remained relatively constant, the number of published articles dropped...\nIn an attempt to test the accuracy of the ranking of some of their journals by IF, Rockefeller University Press purchased access to the citation data of their journals and some competitors. They found numerous discrepancies between the data they received and the published rankings, sometimes leading to differences of up to 19% [86]. When asked to explain this discrepancy, Thomson Reuters replied that they routinely use several different databases and had accidentally sent Rockefeller University Press the wrong one. Despite this, a second database sent also did not match the published records. This is only one of a number reported errors and inconsistencies [87,88].\"\n(For references in this and the following quotes, please see Brembs and Munaf\u00f2's paper.)\nThat is already a bad starting point. But more interesting is that, even though there are surveys confirming that the IF captures quite well researcher's perception of high impact, if one looks at the numbers, it actually doesn't tell much about the promise of articles in these journals:\n\"[J]ournal rank is a measurable, but unexpectedly weak predictor of future citations [26,55\u201359]... The data presented in a recent analysis of the development of [the] correlations between journal rank and future citations over the period from 1902-2009 reveal[s that]... the coefficient of determination between journal rank and citations was always in the range of ~0.1 to 0.3 (i.e., very low).\"\nAnd that is despite there being reasons to expect a correlation because high profile journals put some effort into publicizing articles and you can expect people to cite high IF journals just to polish their reference list. However,\n\"The only measure of citation count that does correlate strongly with journal rank (negatively) is the number of articles without any citations at all [63], supporting the argument that fewer articles in high-ranking journals go unread...\nEven the assumption that selectivity might confer a citation advantage is challenged by evidence that, in the citation analysis by Google Scholar, only the most highly selective journals such as Nature and Science come out ahead over unselective preprint repositories such as ArXiv and RePEc (Research Papers in Economics) [64].\"\nSo IFs of journals in publication lists don't tell you much. That scores as useless, but what's the harm? Well, there are some indications that studies published in high IF journals are less reliable, ie more likely to contain exaggerated claims and cannot later be reproduced.\n\"There are several converging lines of evidence which indicate that publications in high ranking journals are not only more likely to be fraudulent than articles in lower ranking journals, but also more likely to present discoveries which are less reliable (i.e., are inflated, or cannot subsequently be replicated).\nSome of the sociological mechanisms behind these correlations have been documented, such as pressure to publish (preferably positive results in high-ranking journals), leading to the potential for decreased ethical standards [51] and increased publication bias in highly competitive fields [16]. The general increase in competitiveness, and the precariousness of scientific careers [52], may also lead to an increased publication bias across the sciences [53]. This evidence supports earlier propositions about social pressure being a major factor driving misconduct and publication bias [54], eventually culminating in retractions in the most extreme cases.\"\nThe \"decline effect\" (effects getting less pronounced in replications) and the problems with reproducability of published research findings have recently gotten quite some attention. The consequences for science that Brembs and Munaf\u00f2 warn of are\n\"It is conceivable that, for the last few decades, research institutions world-wide may have been hiring and promoting scientists who excel at marketing their work to top journals, but who are not necessarily equally good at conducting their research. Conversely, these institutions may have purged excellent scientists from their ranks, whose marketing skills did not meet institutional requirements. If this interpretation of the data is correct, we now have a generation of excellent marketers (possibly, but not necessarily also excellent scientists) as the leading figures of the scientific enterprise, constituting another potentially major contributing factor to the rise in retractions. This generation is now in charge of training the next generation of scientists, with all the foreseeable consequences for the reliability of scientific publications in the future.\"\nOr, as I like to put it, you really have to be careful what secondary critera (publications in journals with high impact factor) you use to substitute for the primary goal (good science). If you use the wrong criteria you'll not only not reach an optimal configuration, but make it increasingly harder to ever get there because you're changing the background on which you're optimizing (selecting for people with non-optimal strategies).\nIt should clearly give us something to think that even Gordon Macomber, the new head of Thomson Reuters, warns of depending on publication and citation statistics.\nThanks to Jorge for drawing my attention to this paper.\nPosted by Sabine Hossenfelder at 4:42 AM 10 comments: Labels: Academia\nThe simulation hypothesis and other things I don\u2019t...\nBook review: \"The Theoretical Minimum\" by Susskind...\nThumbs up for the Cambridge University Press Custo...\nBook review \"The Edge of Physics\" by Anil Ananthas...",

Chandra Shekhar Singh known as Chandra Shekhar did his Master of Arts (MA) at Allahabad University. He was known as a firebrand in student politics. After graduation, he became active in socialist politics.[1]\nHe came under the spell of Acharya Narendra Dev, a fiery Socialist leader in the beginning of his political career. From 1962 to 1967, Shekhar belonged to the Rajya Sabha, the Upper house of the Parliament of India. He had a nationwide padayatra in 1984 to know the country better, which he claimed gave the jitters to Indira Gandhi, the then Prime Minister. He was called a \u201cYoung Turk\u201d.\nAfter his predecessor, V.P. Singh, resigned, he led a breakaway faction of the Janata Dal, known as the Samajwadi Janata Party (Rashtriya) . The Indian National Congress decided to extend outside support to his government to avoid snap elections, and Shekhar held a bare majority in a coalition with both the Communist parties and the BJP. The relationship crumbled quickly, as the Congress party accused him of spying on Rajiv Gandhi, their leader at that time. The Congress Party then boycotted Parliament and as Shekhar\u2019s faction only had about 60 MPs, he resigned in a nationally televised address on 6 March 1991. He remained in office until national elections could be held later that year.\nShekhar was known for abiding by the parliamentary conventions and was honoured with the inaugural Outstanding Parliamentarian Award in 1995.\nChandra Shekhar was a member of the Lok Sabha, India\u2019s lower house of Parliament. He led Samajwadi Janata Party (Rashtriya), (Socialist People\u2019s Party (National)). Starting in 1977, he won elections to the Lok Sabha eight times from Ballia constituency in eastern Uttar Pradesh. The only election that he lost was in 1984 against Mr. Jagganath Chaudhary of Congress(I).\nShekhar suffered from multiple myeloma, a form of cancer of the plasma cell. On 3 May 2007, he was hospitalised in critical condition after his condition had deteriorated.[2] Shekhar died at the age of 80 in New Delhi on 8 July 2007. He was survived by two sons. One of them, Neeraj Shekhar contested and won the Ballia Lok Sabha which was vacated through his father\u2019s death.\nprevious post: Atal Bihari Vajpayee\nnext post: Welcome to BharatMataMandir.in",

We\u2019ve had a lot of bad things happen to good people, and have had to dig deep as a family to enable ourselves to overcome some pretty bad odds. Yet we\u2019ve managed to live through this and stay strong, focused, and true to ourselves.\nOf course, having a good sense of humour is pretty important, especially in times of adversity. It\u2019s probably what has saved us, my wife Anne and I. And it also helps to have such great kids like we do.\nWhat I am getting at is that the last year has taught us to live your life as well as you can. By \u2018well\u2019, I don\u2019t necessarily mean to spend unwisely and put yourself in a position of extreme debt. But if you\u2019re hanging on to your money for a rainy day, and it\u2019s been pouring out, I think then it\u2019s time to open the purse a little and LIVE.\nWe have been fortunate enough, despite the family tragedy and turmoil, to be able to live like this. In our latest troubles, dealing with a stroke and having to attend almost daily to help in the recovery, my wife especially, there have been great sacrifices made by all. But, we decided early on that the best way to deal with this is to maintain our family unit \u2018together time\u2019, regardless of our schedule. It is quite literally the best decision we ever made.\nYou may be thinking that this is actually a no brainer, that everyone would do the same thing. Based on what we have seen in the last year, and meeting other people going through similar hardships, this is not the case. Often, you get so caught up in the moment, the difficulties, and the personal breakdown of your \u2018normal\u2019 life, that you just forget what normal is. You can easily lose sight of what is really important, which is to continue to nurture the relationships that will stay with you throughout pretty much whatever the Universe will throw at you.\nMy wife and I have been talking about getting a hot tub for several years now. Like over 10 years, at least. And we hadn\u2019t really thought that this would change in the near future. But in light of all that has transpired, and with our age advancing faster than we realised, this year became the year. We have literally re-made out lives this year, taking back our beautiful back yard (we had neglected it for a couple of years, and it certainly showed), and taking control of all the other facets of life that ha been hanging by a thread.\nFor years, the only hot tub in our house was me. This has now changed. My wife and I are living \u2018for better or worse\u2019, and using hot-tub time to heal our physical and mental selves.\nI\u2019m not saying to rush out and buy a hot tub, although if you have been thinking about it, they are fantastic. But I do advocate looking at yourselves and rewarding yourself by living well, by not putting off things that you may possibly regret not doing before it\u2019s too late, and enjoy the gifts of life as we were meant ot do. If you happen to live in a paradise such as Canada is, where we are not laden with the strife that so many other unfortunate regions of this world must endure, you owe it to yourself to appreciate it and even revel in it.\nLive. Laugh. Love.

        "raw_content": "Posted: February 19, 2016 in Community, Family\nTags: aspergers, autism, Education, life lessons, Serendipity\nI know I talk about life a lot. The lessons we learn. The trials and tribulations we all go through that often make us stronger. The incidents of grandeur and also of failure. So many things can happen, both good and bad, that in many cases we cease to take chances. We play it safe. But life can get very boring if you are always eating oatmeal.\nI also mention autism often enough. I can\u2019t help it. I live with an autistic son as well as have married someone with Asperger\u2019s (Google it if you don\u2019t know what that is). For our family it is a daily reality that we are autistic in a neurotypicals world. Consequently \u2018life lessons\u2019 abound. We are resplendent in learning moments.\nAnd so this leads me to our latest life lesson. My son Alex has been in the process of trying to complete his Early Childhood Education program at the local college. He was going full steam ahead, acing the academic portion of his classes, was loved by both his fellow students and the faculty. He\u2019s a great guy. But then the practical placements came. At first they were okay, but as they went along, the placements became more difficult as they gave him more responsibility. The Achilles Heel of autism, it seems.\nAlex is a hard worker. He is diligent. He loves the kids he was working with. He loved being part of a team, the comradery that came with working with others in the common pursuit of providing a safe and nurturing environment for the little ones. But as is the case for most with autism, he is wired differently. The social game that is society can be brutal for one who does not understand the nuances of social decorum and subtle expressions. He is super polite, old fashioned, and believes strongly in good behavior. However, when it comes to actually showing others how to be so, he lacks the tools to impart these important lessons to others.\nI know all this now. It has been made abundantly clear to me by the program director, who was nearly in tears telling us this in the best way she could. Nobody wanted to tell him because they love him like a son. But it needed to be said. Alex needs to choose another career path. And for quite a while now we have been digesting this. Today was the day he finally heard this verdict. And I am so proud of how he handled it.\nNobody likes to sit and hear criticism about themselves. As a father, it was killing me to hear all this. His program director laid out all the positives (which were plentiful), and then came the things he needed to work on. And when I heard them, I realized that many of the points she made were things that will never change for Alex. He simply is not wired for it, and he has an inability to lie. This is an asset in some cases, and a detriment to others. Lying is an important social skill when used properly. It can be used to motivate and to enervate, but he just can\u2019t do it.\nSo here\u2019s the thing: in life, we can either choose to learn but situations such as these, or let it destroy us. At the end of all this, Alex stood up, shook the lady\u2019s hand, and thanked her not only for the opportunity, but for the lessons he had learned. He thanked her for being kind to him, for taking time with him, and told her he hoped that in the future she and the college would learn more about autism and thus find a way to accommodate those on the spectrum so that they can succeed where he didn\u2019t.\nI am pretty sure that, in that little office, the two people present who were non-autistic learnt a hell of a lot more that the man with autism. We learnt that living with kindness in your heart and accepting people for who and what they are is not only paramount for society in general, it is probably the only way we can save our kids on the spectrum. We learnt that they have much more to offer than meets the eye. We learnt they are human beings first. And we learnt that my son is so absolutely awesome.\nHe is going places. We just don\u2019t know where yet.\nMy name is Ashlee. I\u2019m co-founder of the Youshare Project, with the mission to connect people around the world through true, personal stories. I recently stumbled across your blog and read the above post entitled \u201cThe Serendipity of Reality.\u201d It\u2019s well written with a compelling message. I think it would make a wonderful youshare, because there is still a lot of stigma attached to Autism and I believe that personalizing Autism and sharing personal stories like this will help to educate people and eventually shatter this stigma.",

        "raw_content": "Binder & Associates > Blog > Blog > Car Accidents > How to Avoid Personal Injury Accidents As A Pedestrian\nHow to Avoid Personal Injury Accidents As A Pedestrian\nMany serious personal injury accidents happen to us when we are not paying attention. Many of the factors behind many of the accidents we hear about daily involve, to some extent, distraction, and because of that, experts have decided to call out the public to make them aware of the risks associated with distracted walking.\nTo prevent accidents that could expose you to major risks while you\u2019re walking, experts urge you to make sure you\u2019re not distracted by electronics, especially smartphones. Unfortunately for pedestrians, the rise in the use of smartphones is exposing them to serious and at times deadly personal injury accidents.\nWhen it comes to following certain steps to avoid accidents, the number one thing you should always keep in mind as a pedestrian is to walk on a sidewalk or path whenever possible. Making sure you use pedestrian-friendly paths can help you to avoid accidents mostly because you\u2019ll never be in a car\u2019s way. Following pedestrian signs and making sure that you also respect traffic lights can also help you to avoid personal injury accidents. Experts say that, if you do not have access to paths or sidewalks for some reason, you should always walk facing traffic and on the shoulder, as far away from the vehicles as you can.\nAttention is your best friend when walking. If you\u2019re often distracted while walking, you\u2019re more likely to be involved in an accident than a pedestrian who\u2019s focused on the road and is not making use of his or her phone at all times.\nThe use of headphones could also cause you to be involved in a personal injury accident mostly because you may not hear horns or other warning sounds near you, increasing the risk of an accident. While headphones are not the only culprits, making sure you\u2019re aware of your environment will help you to prevent accidents that could put you in serious danger.\nWhen walking at night, avoid assuming drivers can see you. Too often, drivers are also distracted, either by a phone, a passenger, or other cars. Assuming the driver is not seeing you will help to avoid accidents. According to experts, making eye contact with drivers as they approach you is essential. Do not cross in front of a vehicle before you know the driver has seen you and is slowing down or stopped.\nExperts urge pedestrians to predictable at all times by either using intersections or crosswalks to cross the roads. Drivers already expect to see pedestrians doing that.\nIf you\u2019re curious to know more about what you should do to ensure you\u2019re avoiding personal injury accidents, follow this link.",

While this kind of talk may seem somewhat utopian to most automakers, the creators of Volvo managed to make it their business plan, leading to the development of vehicles that have always been much safer than its competitors.\nFollowing the long tradition of safety, the company is now launching a new model fitted with its new SPA scalable platform and Volvo\u2019s signature Drive-E hybrid powertrain. Both features have been developed by the company\u2019s expert team of engineers dedicated to making the safest vehicles available.\nVolvo hopes to make crash-free cars within the next five years, and its recently-released features could serve as glimpse into the future. According to some experts looking into the models developed by Volvo believe that certain important aspects of the Swedish company\u2019s methodology indicate that they could pull their goal off, making some of the safest vehicles in the industry. But what exactly makes these vehicles safer than others?\nMaking Cars Out of Resistant Materials Protects Occupants\nVolvo\u2019s team is well-known for avoiding the use of aluminum in its cars. According to the company\u2019s engineers, the latest XC90 uses 40 percent ultra high strength steel for its body. This type of material makes it easier for the manufacturer to develop thinner parts that are five times sturdier than parts developed by many other automakers. This type of material is used to build the seats. According to experts, this material makes for a safer car since the driver\u2019s and passengers\u2019 body could suffer greatly in case the car ends up in a ditch. The high strength steel reduces vertical forces, thus protecting the driver\u2019s spine.\nThe Importance of Crash Tests\nVolvo also invests a lot of its time and money in car safety performance tests.\nAccording to some reports, the company believes that agencies such as the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the Euro NCAP fail to detect serious design flaws with most vehicles due to their somewhat outdated test systems. Volvo vehicles are usually tested by the company\u2019s own testing systems, which have been changing with every new discovery its engineers make. The small overlap-style impact tests that the IIHS has recently added to its list of tests has been used by Volvo for over 20 years, for instance. This kind of focus on safety makes the company one of the most dedicated to the well-being of consumers in the world.\nAutonomous Tech You Can Trust\nThe company has also been developing its own autonomous technology, but unlike Google, its goal with the development of its features is to maintain its drivers and passengers safe, not to make the relax while behind the wheel.\nAutonomous driving functions newer Volvo cars are fitted with are developed to make sure that occupants are safe in situations that are often missed by most motorists. Claiming their goal is safety, not robotic engineering, Volvo has its own approach to the autonomous car technology, making use of innovation without focusing on what any automaker feels it\u2019s impossible to accomplish right now.\nWhether you\u2019re a Volvo owner or not, it\u2019s important to note the innovations the company embraces when it comes to developing cars that protect their occupants. If you\u2019re curious to know more about this company and its work to protect the consumer, follow this link.",

It will allow Members to share white papers, newsletters, and other resources on healthcare reform. We aim to facilitate information sharing to aid biopharma firms as they confront questions such as:\nWhat does healthcare reform mean for biopharma markets?\nHow will the cost savings measures of the PPACA affect drug payments?\nBioNJ\u2019s Healthcare Reform Committee\nThe effort to keep our Members informed will include this Web site resource area, regular email updates, educational programming, and related advocacy as this topic moves forward.\nThank you to the following individuals and firms for assisting us in this important effort:\nDom Argento, Associate Director, Account Management, Government Affairs & Policy, Merck Sharp & Dohme Corporation\nGil Bashe, Executive Vice President, Health Practice, Makovsky + Company, Inc.\nBrian Kelly, Novo Nordisk\nWendy Lazarus, Director, Government Relations and Public Affairs, Pfizer\nRaphael Marcello, Principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP\nRohin Rajan, Manager, Deloitte Consulting LLP\nRon Seifert, Partner, Life Sciences Sector, Hay Group\nBrian Wilcomes, Deloitte\nBioNJ Members are invited to get involved; please let us know if you would like to do so. We hope this is helpful and welcome your feedback regarding how we can serve you better.\nWhitepapers and Analysis\nBioNJ is pleased to present the following analyses of Health Care Reform and its potential consequences thanks to your fellow Members.

The ultimate beneficiary: the patient.\nExplaining the Supreme Court Decision\nOn June 28, 2012, the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act in National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius. At issue were two provisions of the ACA: the individual mandate and Medicaid expansion. The court upheld the individual mandate, but struck down Medicaid expansion.\nThe majority opinion held that the individual mandate cannot be justified under the Constitution\u2019s Commerce Clause, but that it can be justified as falling under the power of Congress to tax.\nOf perhaps more importance to biopharma, however, is the Court\u2019s ruling that the PPACA\u2019s expansion of Medicaid is unconstitutional. This means that one of the provisions that would potentially have expanded the market for biopharma products will not apply, and that Medicaid expansion will take place on a state-by-state basis. The court ruled that insofar as Medicaid expansion threatens non-compliant states with losing Medicaid funding, it amounts to coercion. With Medicaid expansion struck down, this will likely mean fewer new biopharma customers. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the court\u2019s ruling will decrease the number of uninsured who would otherwise receive coverage under Medicaid expansion, with six million fewer people enrolled in Medicaid in 2022. Before the decision, 33 million people were expected to gain coverage under the PPACA, but now three million fewer are likely to get insurance.\nPlease find a link to the complete decision here: http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/11pdf/11-393c3a2.pdf\nThe Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) takes a three-pronged approach to healthcare reform: expanding Medicaid and providing subsidies to purchase private policies (this provision was subsequently struck down by the Supreme Court); reducing insurers\u2019 abilities to deny or limit coverage; and setting up insurance exchanges to make it easier to buy individual policies. Also, PPACA introduces cost-savings measure into Medicare reimbursement, and individuals not covered by a group plan are required to buy insurance. This requirement is intended in part to offset the additional risk that insurance companies assume under provisions of the law that limit their ability to deny coverage. You can find BioNJ\u2019s glossary, which is intended to offer Members a guide to healthcare reform terminology, linked here.\nWe invite BioNJ Members to send us your related tools and resources and we will post them as appropriate. Please send them to BioNJ@BioNJ.org.",

We really, really feel like we have been treated unethically since this whole thing started. I mean am I crazy for feeling this way? I have never bought a home before, so I have no basis for comparison. But I know that I would never treat anyone the way we\u2019ve been treated. I\u2019ve never read a Realtor\u2019s Code of Ethics, but I\u2019m sure that some of the ways we have been treated are not part of thier Code.\nAnyway, Raf shot off an e-mail Saturday to our Realtor. This was one of the things we fought over. I am not a very confrontational person, and he is. And sometimes these parts of our personalities clash. Raf mentioned in there that we were thinking about filing a compliant. So, as expected, our realtor sent us an e-mail back wondering what we were so upset about, etc. So Raf laid it all out in plain english for him to understand. We also mentioned that we are very appreciative of all he has done for us (my husband put that in there to apease me) and that our complaint is with the seller\u2019s realtor.\nWe got a phone call about a half an hour later saying that the electric work has ALREADY BEEN FIXED. The seller\u2019s realtor stated that all of the electricians in town have been booked for three weeks. And now, all of a sudden, the work has been done? This is very interesting indeed.\nWe are going to go look tommorrow to make sure it is, in fact, done. I will update.\nMay 8, 2006 June 27, 2014 Moni Tagged Good Clean House\t3 Comments\nBloomsday times\nRaf: 2:01:13\nMe: 2:01:14\nWe made better time than I thought!\nMay 8, 2006 July 27, 2012 Moni Tagged Bloomsday\t3 Comments",

        "raw_content": "The geographies of university campuses\nTwo weeks ago a student of Reutgers University in the US jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge. Allegedly, his privacy had been violated by his roommates, who had installed a hidden camera in his bedroom and filmed him having sex with another man. Afterwards, they posted the images on the Internet. Following this horrible event, several US Senators have proposed the passing of legislation aimed at protecting students from harassment and bullying in university campuses.\nCases such as this one highlight the importance of critically researching the experiences of minority groups in universities\u2019 spaces. In a forthcoming article for Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Peter Hopkins (2010) calls for more research focusing on the social and spatial relations which characterize university campuses, and their geographies of power, discrimination, resistance and subversion. In this case, the author presents the findings of a project conducted with Muslim students in a UK university and discusses the different ways in which the participants constructed the university campus as both a tolerant and discriminatory place. This type of research is essential in order to inform the creation of more inclusive and non-discriminatory educational spaces, which can foster tolerance, respect and understanding.\nRead Kristen Hamill\u2019s report \u201cLegislation targets harassment on campus in wake of Rutgers suicide\u201d \u2013 CNN website\nRead Peter Hopkins (2010) \u201cTowards critical geographies of the university campus: understanding the contested experiences of Muslim students\u201d.

Western culture has TAUGHT us many things among them are protection of personal space, privacy and freedom of speech. But to me it is no more than western hypocrisy. A German TV anchor lady admires the Nazi family values closer to Oriental value system than the present Occidental ones. But she did not admire the Nazi Ideology. The next day she was fired i.e., relieved of her services. Does freedom of speech in the West means only to say something filthy or rationalise with malice the Orient value system as barbaric or medieval.\nIn Australia a white supervisor spied on a non-white worker when he went to the toilet and found out that instead of using paper, the worker used water to clean himself. This was reported to the management and the worker was fired.\nThere may be related many instances where ultra privacy of people has been violated. Obama on being elected as president of the US declared that America (read West) has every right to defend its culture. Don\u2019t \u201cOTHERS\u201d have this right. Culture is a learning process. Interaction, evaluation, utility etc. all go in determining acceptance or rejection of certain values and this process differs from person to person and a person\u2019 evaluation of his/her own culture. Culture and value system cannot be imposed upon people, it is matter of choice. Certain people and culture are easily amenable to Western values. People of two communities from a nation emigrated to the West, have reacted differently. One has even westernised their names and confined religious activities within their homes. The other community cannot think of changing a letter from their name and wants to practice its religious ritual publicly. The religious symbols of this community in an alien cultural landscape becomes conspicuous by their presence and reason of tension as the host community insists on adoption of their culture and value system whether rational or irrational.\nThis is simply hypocrisy of the self-styled developed civilisation and nothing else.",

        "raw_content": "Torah in Christianity\nIn a recent post, it would seem I've touched a nerve by saying God's commandments (the Torah/the Law/the first 5 books of the Jewish & Christian bibles) should be followed to the best of one's ability. My post wasn't meant to offend believers in Messiah, but at the same time, I'm glad it sparked some healthy debate. As long as it's done in love, I've no problem with debating Christian theology.\nPerhaps I can persuade gentile Christians by asking the following questions: Do we or do we not observe the 10 Commandments? Do we try to do what Jesus would do (WWJD)? Do we believe there is such a thing as sin?\nAnswer yes to any of the previous 3 questions, and you've committed yourself to upholding the Law. :-)\nFor example, the 10 Commandments are part of the Law; one might call them a summary of God's commandments in the Law.\nAnd on living like Jesus, Jesus kept God's commandments. We draw this conclusion given this evidence: his telling others to keep God's commandments (Matt 5, Mark 1:40-45), Paul's stating that the commandments define sin; with Scripture's assertion that Jesus never sinned, it implies Jesus followed God's commandments perfectly. Also, Jesus' own actions: he celebrated the Biblical holidays (Passover, Unleavened Bread, and others) defined in the Law, told others to keep the Law (Matt 5), and finally, we have no evidence of Jesus ever breaking a commandment. WWJD? I'll answer that question: for starters, he'd follow God's commandments.\nDo not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For 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.\n-Jesus, in his fundamentals of the faith sermon in Matthew's gospel\nSometimes we tend to ignore Scripture like the above because it doesn't fit our modern, Western doctrines. We instead favor of some of Paul's statements about the Law, causing the confusion we have on the law today.\nThe next piece is sin: if you believe in sin (that is, right and wrong in God's eyes), then one must also believe in the Law, which defines sin.\nOne attractive piece of the Law for Christianity is its clear guidelines for right and wrong. The New Testament isn't a book of laws, but rather, a book about Messiah; so without a clear guideline for right and wrong, we're left with confusion. And confusion has abounded: look at some modern \"progressive\" Christian churches, such as the United Church of Christ, where sexual immorality including homosexuality among church pastors is both tolerated and accepted. Without the Law, how do we know homosexuality is wrong?\nThe Law has a perfectly legitimate function. Without its clear guidelines for right and wrong, moral behavior would be mostly guesswork. Apart from the succinct, surgical command, \"You shall not covet,\" I could have dressed covetousness up to look like a virtue and ruined my life with it.\nPaul's right on about the coveting commandment, but the same could be said for the other 612 commandments in the Law, everything from lying to cheating to stealing to sexual immorality to murder. It's all laid out in God's commandments in the Law, and without it, we have no guide, no absolute mappings, of what's right and wrong.\nBut just having the Law sitting there does no good; we try to follow God's commandments, but even then we still sin; we're a sinful lot and enjoy doing evil things. Paul comments on this:\nI've spent a long time in sin's prison. What I don't understand about myself is that I decide one way, but then I act another, doing the very things I absolutely despise. So if I can't be trusted to figure out what is best for myself and then do it, it becomes obvious that God's commands, the Law, is necessary.\nBut I need something more! For if I know the Law but still can't keep it, and if the power of sin within me keeps sabotaging my best intentions, I obviously need help! I realize that I don't have what it takes. I can will it, but I can't do it. I decide to do good, but I don't really do it; I decide not to do bad, but then I do it anyway. My decisions, such as they are, don't result in actions. Something has gone wrong deep within me and gets the better of me every time.\nIt happens so regularly that it's predictable. The moment I decide to do good, sin is there to trip me up. I truly delight in the Law, but it's pretty obvious that not all of me joins in that delight. Parts of me covertly rebel, and just when I least expect it, they take charge.\nI've tried everything and nothing helps. I'm at the end of my rope. Is there no one who can do anything for me? Isn't that the real question?\nThe answer, thank God, is that Jesus the Messiah can and does. He acted to set things right in this life of contradictions where I want to serve God with all my heart and mind, but am pulled by the influence of sin to do something totally different.\nThis is a key few understand: the Law is necessary to tell us what sin is, however, it does not save us from sin. Paul says of the Law and it's saving power:\nMessiah redeemed us from that old sinful life by absorbing the Law completely into himself. Do you remember the Scripture that says, \"Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree\"? That is what happened when Jesus was nailed to the cross: He became a curse, and at the same time dissolved the curse of death that breaking the Law brings. The Law alone never made anyone righteous; you must have faith before you're set straight with God. Anything less is nothing but rule-following.\nHe's right, if you don't believe in God but follow the Law, you're still nothing. It isn't a slam on the Law so much as it is a glorification of faith in God. Faith is so important, that without it, all our good behavior amounts to nothing. James confirms this:\nIf you really keep the Law found in Scripture, \"Love your neighbor as yourself,\" you are doing right. But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. For he who said, \"Do not commit adultery,\" also said, \"Do not murder.\" If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.\nDo you want evidence that faith without works is useless? Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that says, \"Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,\" and he was called God's friend. You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone.\nAs the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead.\n-James, in his letter to the 12 tribes of Israel dispersed through the world\nAn interesting correlation! If we don't have faith, following the commandments is useless (one might say certain modern Judaic Jews fall under this grouping). However, if we have faith but don't have works, our faith is useless (I contend that some modern Christians fall under this grouping). What works is James speaking of? The only \"works\" defined in Scripture, of course: the Law -- he says it it right there in the text.\nYou're already following the Law, more or less\nMost Christians follow the Law without explicitly knowing it, at least to some degree. We don't murder, for example, and we don't curse, lie, and so on. At least, that's what we preach, and we try to live like this. Wouldn't you know it, all those things we refrain from are sins, defined in the Law. Paul comments on this interesting development of Law-following gentiles without them ever having known the Law:\nIf you sin without knowing what you're doing, God takes that into account. But if you sin knowing full well what you're doing, that's a different story entirely. Merely hearing the Law is a waste of your time if you don't actually do it. Doing, not hearing, is what makes the difference with God.\nWhen gentiles like you who have never heard of the Law follow it more or less by instinct, you confirm its truth by your obedience. This shows that the Law is not something alien, imposed on us from without, but woven into the very fabric of our creation. There is something deep within us that echoes God's yes and no, right and wrong. Our response to God's yes and no will become public knowledge on the day God makes his final decision about every man and woman. The message from God that I proclaim through Jesus the Messiah takes into account all these differences.\nInteresting, eh? So if you're already following the Law, more or less, then what am I babbling on about? Well, I am addressing the false doctrine that the Law has been abolished. I hope by now you agree that it is not abolished and has a very real purpose for today. Also, gentile believers in Messiah are fine with the Law until it requires them to make a lifestyle change. For example, the commandments about not murdering, not lying, not cheating: we're all hunky-dory with those. But those commandments that would require of us to change our diet, or stop working for the Lord's day of rest, well, we kind of fudge it and cherry pick what we want to define as right and wrong. That in itself is not right, and is what I'm addressing in this post.\nPaul mentions above how we shouldn't sin (break the Law). Does a Christian man murder? Does a believer in God commit adultery? Every man sins, so yes, even Christians do these things. The difference for us is that we know those things do not please God, so we do our best to refrain from those things. We try to do good works and try to live a Godly life. But how do we know what's Godly? How do we know what's good? How do we even know murder, stealing, lying, cheating is wrong? The author of 1 John tells us all these things:\nIf we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and we're liars. If we admit that we have sinned and turn from those things, God is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word and his commands mean nothing.\nMy dear children, I write this to keep you from sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense\u2014Jesus the Messiah, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.\nWe know that we have come to know him if we obey his commandments. The man who says, \"I know him,\" but does not do what God commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys the commandments in his word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.\nWhat does God command? Did Jesus preach some commands different that God's commands?\nThere is only one set of commandments, my brothers in Messiah. Messiah taught something not foreign or new, and he didn't come to start a new religion. What a terrible shame our modern doctrines have placed this dark, negative connotation on God's commandments.\nOne of their religion scholars spoke for them, posing a question they hoped would show him up: \"Teacher, which command in the Law is the most important?\"\nJesus said, \"'Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.' This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: 'Love others as well as you love yourself.' These two commands are pegs; everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs from them.\"\n-Jesus, in Matthew's gospel\nIf the Law can be summed up as loving God and loving others, what's the problem, my friends? A common denominator of those 2 commands is love. Surely, if the sum total of the commandments is love, why are we even debating the Law?\nIf the commandments are kept, keep them out of love for God. Knowing full well the Law cannot make us righteous on its own merits, keep the commandments because we love God and love his ways. Likewise, we know that without obeying God's commandments, our faith is worthless. Make your faith worth something by living what you preach.\nfound in Christianity, Judaism, law, torah\nPatrick O'Hara Tuesday, February 13, 2007 3:51:00 PM\nI guess I am continuing my inquiry from the last post. Obviously all of the commandments of God are good. Most are straight forward and clearly apply today. Some are difficult to maintain this day in age. I have already broken a mitzvot in this post by using the name of God. For those that may not be familiar with the list we are discussing you may look at http://www.jewfaq.org/613.htm.\nI brought up the food law last time as I expect it to be fairly free from fiery response. Still I do not separate meat and dairy. In fact I routinely eat meat and dairy together. This is apparently a sin?\nI am confused by statements like those that Paul makes in Galatians. Circumcision is clearly a command mentioned in both Genesis and Leviticus, but Paul says it's OK to not be Circumcised. What does that say about the rest of the commandments?\nI think we differ in temperament rather than kind. I allow for the culture to dictate somewhat what is acceptable for me to do. After all despite the clear acceptance of slavery in the Torah, most modern believers think of the practice as evil.\nRocky Moore Tuesday, February 13, 2007 6:43:00 PM\n\"If the commandments are kept, keep them out of love for God. Knowing full well the Law cannot make us righteous on its own merits, keep the commandments because we love God and love his ways. Likewise, we know that without obeying God's commandments, our faith is worthless. Make your faith worth something by living what you preach.\"\nIsn't that a contradiction? You link the law to righteousness \"on its own merits\" suggesting must obey the Law along with faith to be saved. Earlier you said that we all continue to sin and we more or less try to obey the law. If the Law had anything to do with your righteiousness before God, would you not be required to keep every fragment of the law?\nIf a person does not obey the law, what would \"our faith is worthless\" mean? Salvation lost?\nAs the other comment, if Paul taught that Circumcision was not required (which is obvious since it was required by the law), then by the statement here he would be the least in heaven, as he taught someone to break the law, correct?\nI might have been looking in the wrong place, but in your quotes from James I did not see anything about \"So speak ya, and so do, as men that are to be judged by a law of liberty\" (ASV) along with the verses that followed it which imply he is talking about works as being showing mercy, giving of food to the poor, etc, not the Royal Law (as is written such in several translation as referring to the Laws of Moses).\nGot to go, more another time.\nJudah, the heart of your post is certainly in the right place, but I don't believe that Scripture supports the technicalities of your position. The easiest conflict to point out would be\nExodus 20:10 (NASB), \"but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you.\"\nRomans 14:5-6 \"One person regards one day above another, another regards every day alike. Each person must be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes it for the Lord, and he who eats, does so for the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who eats not, for the Lord he does not eat, and gives thanks to God.\"\nIf Paul took the position your post seems to describe, he would never have written the section I just quoted. Instead, he would have clearly shown people the error of their ways, as he did in many other portions of his writings.\nNote that I am not in any way indicating that the Bible is in conflict with itself. Galatians 3:24-25 seems very clear to me: \"Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.\"\n(I don't know whether you intend to reply to this, but I rarely read comments after reading the associated post. So, another blog entry or an email (via CodeProject?) would be best.)\nJudah Himango Tuesday, February 13, 2007 10:10:00 PM\nEating meat and dairy is perfectly fine, it's a rabbinical, oral law that says \"don't mix dairy\", not a God-commandment. There is a God-commandment about not boiling a calf in its mother's milk, the reason being it was a pagan practice of Canaanites at the time of the Israelites.\nUsing God's name is not breaking a commandment. (Using God's name in vain or cursing it, is breaking a commandment.) Still, you didn't use God's name in your post. (God's name is not \"God\".)\nRegarding slavery, there is no commandment to hold slaves. I actually just posted a blog post on this just the other week, have a look if you get a chance: blog post touching on slavery in the Bible. The Law only regulates the already-existing practice to an almost impossibility. Paul also addresses slavery, by the way. But neither New Testament nor Old Testament commands anyone to hold slaves.\nRocky, I don't think one has to obey the Law to be saved, but rather, your outward actions should show your inward salvation if Messiah is in you. That is, if you've got Messiah, you shouldn't be sinning without remorse. I think we agree on this point.\nJames says our faith is worthless if we don't act in the physical. That is, if I talk about God all day, but don't live Godly at all, my faith is worthless. Abraham's faith was great when he believed in God, but his faith was backed up by action (his willingness to even sacrifice Isaac). James 2 covers this pretty well, and mentions specifically the Law in that chapter and its link to faith. Faith and works are certainly intertwined.\nRegarding Paul, I contend he did not teach others to *not* circumcise; after all, he himself circumcised Timothy, he performed a Nazirite vow, he celebrated Passover. He did, however, teach that circumcision did not lead to salvation, as some in the Galatian camp were doing. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my take on it, anyways. I'm open to hearing your thoughts on that if you have a different view.\nJohn, I contend that Paul is telling us in that chapter to put love and unity in Messiah above all differences in dietary or observational habit.\nI'm glad you brought that up though: I just finished studying that chapter and transcribing it to the Epistles of Paul blog. Seems to me Paul is focused on putting love above any differences between believers. That's all. That doesn't contradict the Law, doesn't contradict Jesus, or the apostles, or even Paul's earlier agreement with the apostles in Acts regarding which laws should gentile believers follow.\nIf you're having doubts whether Paul told gentile Christians to follow the Law, check out Paul's and the apostles' agreement about this in Acts 15:\n\"It is our judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood. For Moses is preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.\"\nIn other words, he's starting off gentile Christians with just 4 of the big commandments from the Law (essentially, the Noahide laws from the Law). After that, they'll hear Moses in the synagogues every Sabbath, and they'll pick up the whole of the Law there.\nInterestingly, modern gentile Christians do not even follow those 4 major ones the apostles and Paul all agreed to.\nRocky Moore Wednesday, February 14, 2007 12:13:00 AM\n\"Interestingly, modern gentile Christians do not even follow those 4 major ones the apostles and Paul all agreed to.\"\nI think maybe you are equating cults like \"The Unitied Church Christ\" with \"gentile Christian\" churches. No Christians I know break violate those four rules. There are a great number of demoniations and most do not accept things such as homosexuality nor evolution (one of my big beefs lately ;) ).\nI believe there is a law for Christians, but it is not the law of Moses, it is what is known in the NT as \"the law of liberty\". It is that we now longer are bound to sin as prior to grace, but at the same time it does not mean we can have sin in our lifes.\nIn Romans it says we are not under condemnation if we walk after the Spirit (big S here) and not after our flesh. That is, as long as we listent to the Holy Spirit, we will not fulfil the lust of our flesh. What is the flipside to that statement? If we ignore the Holy Spirit and walk after our flessh to fulfil its lust....\nThe law showed us that you needed a saviour and that no man is without sin other than Yeshua. Must like God said, \"so, you think you can be perfect on your own, here follow these rules or die\". He knew no one could follow them, but it was to prove to us not Him that we could not be righteous.\nOnce Yeshua came and fulfilled the Law of Moses, we are no longer bound by that Law, the law of sin and death, and now we have a new law, the law of liberty written in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. If our heart convicts of us of sin it is sin.\nGood works (our relationship with others and how we treat them) is the basis for the Law of Liberty. It is that changing of the heart that is required.\nUnfortunately, we can harden our hearts and not listen to the Holy Spirit and move from light to darkness. Our will is always ours and we must keep it subject to Yeshua which as Romans says, is our reasonible service.\nSo, I agree we must have fruit, that our life should show the love of God that resides in our, as in James, those that show mercy, mercy shall be shown to them, etc. I disagree it is by keeping the law of Moses and living under rules and regulations that no one can do.\nRocky, you're right, I should've said, some gentile Christians, certainly not all. My mistake, I should have been more careful with my words. I know Messiah-believers like yourself don't indulge in sexual immorality freely without remorse. Obviously, there are some that *do*, like our UCC example, but not all by any means.\nThe refraining from blood and strangled meat, however, is something almost all gentile Christians don't observe. At least, I've never known a Christian to, say, hold off on a rare steak in honor of this commandment by the apostles.\nI think you're right about living by the Spirit. It is my belief that if one walks in the Spirit, you're ultimately going to be following most of the Law, or at least, the core parts of the Law -- refraining from sexual immorality, cursing, lying, cheating, and so on -- and instead living in love, which Messiah said is what the Law boils down to. If the Law defines sin, as Paul states, then walking in the Spirit would mean you're turning away from sin, ultimately walking in the commandments.\nRocky, you said \"living under rules and regulations no one can do\". Essentially you're saying, \"no one can live sinless\". Yes, of course no one can live a sinless life. That doesn't mean we throw up our hands and give up. Instead, we rely on Messiah to help us overcome sin in our lives.\nRegarding the Law of Liberty, Rocky, what is the Law of Liberty? Liberty to do what? Is it liberty to break the Law? To do whatever one wants? No, if that were the case, the United Church of Christ would be right in its acceptance of sexual immorality. The Law of Liberty is not a free pass to sin. The Law of Liberty is freedom *from* sin, not freedom *to* sin. It's no wonder, then, that Jesus said the Law is not abolished, because if it were, it would imply sin doesn't exist anymore.\nThis is what Paul meant when he said we're not under the Law any longer: we are not bound by its penalty because Messiah did us this huge favor of coming to earth as a man, making the final atoning sacrifice (completing the Law), and taking our penalty with Him. That's liberty: not being under the penalty of the Law (death) any longer.\nNow that Yeshua has taken our penalty, does that mean we're free to trample the Law, and sin as much as we please? Both Paul throughout Romans and the author of Hebrews (in particular, Heb. 11) both address this pretty thoroughly; being the strong believer that you are, I assume you already know the answer.\nNice chat, I like when people can share and not get violent. That keeps me away from must public forums as they seem to get very angry. Here comes a little longer one ;)\nSin was clearly defined by the law for \u201cthose\u201d under law. Do you think that before Moses there was no sin? Or that maybe if they did not rest on the Sabbath they sinned and were condemned for it without even knowing about it? How did God make judgment on people before Moses or what law was Abraham under?\nThe new covenant is not by law but by Spirit. As was referred to earlier, the schoolmaster was for those under the law which is no longer required as God has wrote His law, not Moses law, in our hearts through the Holy Spirit to convict us of our sin (not transgression of the Mosaic law) but the law of Liberty.\n1 John 3:18-24 shows us that the law of God is written in our heart, that if our heart condemns us we have sinned, but if our heart does not condemn us we have not sinned as long as we do what is pleasing in His sight. Okay, wait a minute, I think I know what you are thinking, no the Mosaic law is not the definition of what is pleasing, John goes on to say that the commandment of God is that we should believe in the name of His Son Yeshua and love one another as Yeshua mentioned before in the Gospel of John.\nThere is nothing wrong with a person holding to the law of Moses the best they can if they desire, it is not required though. I do think Christians should revisit more of the Jewish culture, for example the feasts (not meaning feeding, but as you know history) as we will celebrate these things throughout the millennium kingdom and that rich Jewish culture should be a part of everyone.\nAnyway, back to the point, in Colossians 2:8-12 he talks about being buried in baptism and risen with Yeshua through faith, by the circumcision of the Messiah and not of the flesh. That being dead in our sins and uncircumcised in our flesh (our new life) we are quickened together with Him. We are born again, we are no longer charged by God of any crime nor under the rules of the past. There if any man be in the Messiah, he is a new creation and old things have passed away and all things are now new. This is not just the rabbinic laws or just part of the law, we are dead and raised with the Messiah to a new life without the Mosaic law, we have a new law that is written in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, not in letter but in deed.\nMore over in 2 Corinthians chapter 3 gives details of the law of Liberty in the new covenant, the ministration of the spirit not of death, that the law is no longer on stone, but now written in our hearts. Now the Lord is that Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. It is the Spirit that transforms us and guides us, not the letter of the law. The schoolmaster is no longer needed as we have God's law of Liberty written in our hearts.\nThe law of liberty is about how we treat ourselves and others. The reason I put ourselves in there is that we cannot treat ourself badly and still have good relationships with others. I agree with you it is all about love! \"By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if you have love one to another\"!\nYeah, it has been a good chat. You know, when I posted the blog post, I almost took it down in anticipation of an onslaught of personal attacks.\nI'm so accustomed to attacks from atheists, Jews, and often times Christians for the things I believe. I talk about Messiah among Jews, and get attacked for it. I talk about God among atheists and get attacked for it. I talk about Torah among Christians and get attacked for it. But you, Patrick, and John have all spoken in love and have not lashed out and attacked me -- I really appreciate that! -- this fact really shows me that you've got Messiah in you; it's not something you just talk about. Good example of Messiah. :-)\nI was singing some praises on the guitar last night, and while I was playing, I started praying about this conversation and the posts you guys made yesterday. I asked that God would show me where I go wrong in my beliefs. I meant that, I want to know the truth. God reminded me that when the time comes to stand before God, things like who won a theological debate will mean nothing.\nGod also told me I am supposed to bless all 3 of you. You've actually encouraged me and strengthened my faith in Messiah by your demonstration of love despite our theological differences. So be blessed! Here's a blessing Jews customarily give every sabbath. It was Aaron's blessing over Israel:\nAnd make his face shine on you\nAnd be gracious to you\nLet him lift up his countenance on you\nAnd give you shalom.\nNow, back to debating a little. :-) You mentioned that following the Law is OK, but not required. I agree it's not required for salvation. It brings up an interesting point, though: if a man believes in Messiah, but then lives a horrific, sinful, loveless life, non-repentant of sin, is he still saved?\nI also wonder what becomes of the Law and its purpose, if not to follow it? Given the standard gentile Christian stance on the Law, how does one interpret Jesus' words on the Law? Isn't it possible modern western Christian doctrine is wrong on this issue?\nMm, another thing comes to mind: in the Law, God tells Israel that it is an everlasting covenant, that is, it is an agreement between Israel and God forever. Surely Messiah didn't break this covenant or somehow bring it to an end...what do you think?\nRocky Moore Wednesday, February 14, 2007 3:14:00 PM\nI do not say the first convenant is gone, but it would have to be followed by the letter which no one can do other than Yeshua.\nHebrews chapter 8 says that the first covenant had a fault and taht is why a second convenant was required and continues to say the old is made obsolete by the new.\nThis does not mean the prior covenant is no longer valid, under Yeshua it is no longer required.\nJudah, your understanding of the main thrust of the Romans passage is correct. However, it is also the same reason behind the apostles instructions to the Gentiles. Remember that they wanted to avoid offending others, which Romans also discusses.\nHowever, you've avoided the most critical portion of my post. Galatians 3 is specifically discussing the relationship between Christians and the law.\nAlso, don't forget all the laws about sacrifices. We clearly aren't expected to obey those anymore. How do you decide where the line is between \"keep these\" and \"forget those\" if you don't take Galatians at face value?\nJudah Himango Thursday, February 15, 2007 9:55:00 AM\nThere is no picking and choosing: you do all that you can. Follow each of God's commandments as best as you can. That's all.\nbryan Thursday, February 22, 2007 2:15:00 AM\nit's been encouraging following this thread and being a witness to some healthy debate. so kudos to you guys for following through in such manner. this subject has been a hot topic since _forever_ and it's always been problematic for me in my walk [from the beginning] since the arguments are very strong either way. and of course, the biblical references are quoted to \"support\" each particular argument. trying to follow both has certainly helped me find my bearings in the bible. but at the end of it, both arguments still stand. i was offered a different perspective recently while discussing feasts and festivals [thanks, Judah for your postings on these] which helped me, at least, bridge some differences and look at this from a slightly different angle.\nwhile we argue the merits of feasts and festivals, and law, and keeping them as post-modern western society Christians, we still continue to celebrate feasts and festivals of *some kind* and hold ourselves accountable to *some law*. we [traditionally speaking] celebrate christmas and easter while subjecting ourselves to the laws of society. In addition, our lives are directed by the laws of humanity. by this i include all those old-wives' tales, proverbs, superstitions, idiomatic expressions and such like which we use to defend or promote a particular course of action. we also use them to understand our world.\noutside of the arguments of wether we do or don't follow the Law to it's fullness [and perhaps even including these arguments], i think we sell ourselves short of God's fullness by not choosing to subject ourselves to His laws and celebrations, rather than the ones we substitute through tradition. the law without the Spirit we know to be completely inadequate, but now, having God's Spirit, understanding the law in application *should* be a whole lot easier.\ni think we too readily settle for second prize when it comes to celebrating shallow festivals like christmas or easter, when we could be experiencing and living out a fuller meaning with added depth when engaging and celebrating passover, pentecost, and tabernacles [with all their depth]. and with law, we need rules anyway. we even make up our own rules to \"cope\" with life and support our goals and ambitions. so why not look at God's perfect law _first_, follow the Spirit of the law by understanding the letter and apply that in some way? if we don't even bother, maybe we're just missing out on so much more?\nso that's the encouragement aspect. maybe mix it in with each angle and see how it impacts? and so wether following the law or not and how that impacts on your salvation and definition of of what a Christian is... that's the ongoing debate. but by not doing it, what do you substitute? and how does that impact on the fullness of your relationship in getting to know God more?\nthen of course, there is the question that while we are so ready to defend the bastions of traditional easter and chritmas, we are equally equipped to flame the festivals of the LORD and relegate them to legalism.\nand while we defend the laws of our country, society or community [even church] and the traditional mindset handed down to us by our forefathers, we are equally prepared to sledge against the laws of God simply because they don't fit. understanding that intrigues me somewhat :)\nExcellent, brother! Thanks for posting that. Beautifully put, I've nothing to add to it. Well said on all counts.\nThanks for stopping by & posting. Take care.\nJudah, I don't mean to sound sarcastic, but this is the major point, and you kinda missed it (or just chose not to deal with it?).\nIf you're not picking and choosing which of the OT laws to obey, when do you sacrifice the sheep?\nI suggest you do your own study on the Judaisers that Paul had to argue against in the NT.\nI already addressed it: you do everything you can. Follow as many of God's laws you can, that's all.",

Duplication and unnecessary repetition needs to be reduced to free up funds for investment in bleeding-edge technologies. Else Kodak's fate could be repeated for today's blossoming car manufacturers. One promising idea is that two or more diesel engine specialists should join forces and create a world-beating diesel engine by combining/pooling all of their individual patents/strengths. For example, VW, Fiat and Honda could collaborate to produce diesel engines for their individual passenger cars. Each of these car companies produces excellent diesel engines already.

        "title": "7 Real Estate Agent Myths Debunked",
        "raw_content": "7 Real Estate Agent Myths Debunked\nIn today's Agent Insights, Donald Payne, a Realtor, agent, and broker for top-rated Columbus, Ohio Realty firm Vision Realty Inc., shares 7 very common Real Estate agent myths. This list is spot on and will probably have you shaking your head. Don't forget these common layperson beliefs when working with clients outside the Real Estate industry.\nHere's Donald:\nI'm sure you are guilty of thinking at least one or more of these myths from time to time. I think we all have some type of predisposition or stereotype that we think about Real Estate Agents, as we do lawyers or used car salesman. But you might be suprised at some of the top myths that many people believe about Real Estate Agents; and then again you may not.\n#1. Real Estate Agents Make too Much Money.\nWant to know a secret? The average agent's annual salary is typically less than $40,000 a year. Many teachers actually make more than real estate agents. Until real estate agent has built up a good book of business, which can take several years, they often may have a side job or make very little money. Most agents with very large brokerages close less than four deals a year (which almost no one can live on). Real estate agents have to pay a lot in fees to the office, the MLS, advertising and overhead expenses, which leaves very little to live on.\nSide Note: This is why you want an agent that is extremely experienced so, ask questions before signing on with a real estate agent. They may not have the experience you need to buy or sell a property.\n#2. The Higher the List Price, the More the Agent Makes.\nThis is not necessarily true. It's usually a percentage of the sales price, not the list price. And, you'd be surprised at how little that extra little percentage really is when it comes to a commission. While it might be a $10,000 difference to the buyer or the seller, it's probably less than $200 on the commission to the real estate agent.\n#3. Agents Have to Show the House Anytime the Buyer Wants.\nAgents don't necessarily have to show homes on demand. Just because this is their job, doesn't mean they have to be at your beck and call every moment. Before you call up any old agent just to see the house, it's best to get your own agent. Write up a contract and have something in writing stating that you are working only with them. I can't tell you how many times I've shown numerous houses to people and they end up buying with another agent!\n#4. Agents get kickbacks from inspectors, escrow companies or lenders.\nThis is absolutely false. Since 1974, agents have been prevented from receiving any type of kickback or favor from vendors. Agents could seriously jeopardize their license if they participate in any bribing.\n#5. Home inspectors live in real estate agents pockets.\nI know this is a funny way to say this, but if the agent is to be trusted, they can't have an inspector that's only going to favor that agent. Inspectors and real estate agents have to be completely unbiased and disclose material facts. Agents usually prefer a home inspector that is not an alarmist, meaning they freak the homeowner out at every little scratch or tear, but they report on the issues calmly and matter-of-factly.\n#6. Agents have to tell buyers everything they know about a property or the neighborhood.\nThis is a really fine line between due diligence and honesty, and what Fair Housing laws prevent a Real Estate agent from saying. Real Estate agents cannot talk about crime in the area, whether the schools are good or bad, or the ethnic makeup of a neighborhood. Agents can tell you where to find that information, but cannot discriminate against any protected class.\n#7. Agents will say and do anything to close the deal.\nSure, as with any industry, there are representatives that can be unfair, biased and unethical. But, good real estate agents should be honest and perform the fiduciary duty diligence to provide the best information in the most unbiased information to a buyer or seller. A solid reputation in the real estate industry can help an agent or broker go far and to jeopardize that would only harm them in the long run.\nFor the original post, and more from Donald, visit his Active Rain blog http://activerain.com/profile/donaldpayne and website http://www.visionrealty.com/.\nDebunk the Mystery Behind Lead Generation:",

        "raw_content": "Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Training in Thailand\nFind the Best Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Training Courses in the World\nJivamukti Yoga has gained a serious following outside of the mainstream yoga world, thanks to its no-nonsense approach to yoga.\nThey sort of abandoned the commercialized and sensationalized aspects of yoga in order to focus on the true purpose of yoga. Dedicated Jivamukti practitioners use their personal yoga practice to be better, feel better, and do better.\nUnlike many of the most popular yoga studios, which mass produce yoga classes for ashtanga yoga, vinyasa flow, and whatever other asana practice, Jivamukti emphasizes focusing on all of the components of yoga, far beyond the asanas.\nIf you are interested in teaching yoga as a lifestyle rather than a physical practice of the body, the Jivamukti yoga may be good for you.\nThe 5 Tenets of Jivamukti Yoga\nDeveloped by David Life and Sharon Gannon in 1984, Jivamukti Yoga draws upon the basic components of Hatha Yoga and Vinyasa yoga. Many celebrities are proponents of the Jivamukti style due to its active role in supporting animal rights, veganism, environmentalism, and social activism.\nThe name Jivamukti comes from the Sanskrit word jivanmuktih, which means 'individual living soul' (jiva) and 'liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth' (moksa). Together, the word means 'liberation while living.'\n1. Shastra\nStudy of ancient yogic texts and teachings. This includes chanting in the ancient Sanskrit language.\nUsing sound and listening as a way to develop a purified body and mind. This can be achieved through musical recordings, words, the teacher\u2019s voice, or even silence.\nNon-violence towards all beings. Compassion toward every living creature, with this tenet being acted upon through activism and vegetarianism.\nLetting go into the surrender of devotion, often by using the medium of chanting. The intention of self-realization as the goal of all practices.\nTranslates roughly to \"meditation\" in the English language. The inner discovery. Discovering the eternal, limitless nature within.\nTop Yoga Centers for a Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Training Program\nJivamukti is one of the nine internationally recognized methods of Hatha Yoga. However, Jivamukti does not recognize the Yoga Alliance as the universal governing board of yoga schools, so authentic Jivamukti yoga studios and yoga schools are not registered with the Yoga Alliance.\nIn fact, they argue that the Jivamukti Yoga teacher training method far surpasses that of the Yoga Alliance. However, much like the Yoga Alliance programs, students can expect to learn similar topics as those in a traditional Yoga Alliance course.\nYou will likely get an in-depth study of the yoga philosophy, yoga asanas and postures, yoga anatomy, meditation, chanting, the Yoga Sutras, the spiritual aspect of yoga, pranayama, music, and activism principles.\nThe original yoga school of Jivamukti Yoga offers training programs, workshops, and retreats that focus on the holistic approach to Jivamukti Yoga. They lead groups of students all over the world, such as in Germany, Costa Rica, and India.\nLove Yoga Center in Florida\nWhile technically not a Jivamukti Yoga studio, the Love Yoga Center does overlap significantly with the basic tenets of Jivamukti. They combine an invigorating asana practice with chanting, chakras, Sanskrit, meditation, pranayama, and more. If you love the ideals of Jivamukti but cannot afford the steep price, then check out Love Yoga Center.\nYoga Shala Paros\nMuch like the retreat center above, this yoga studio does not--and cannot--offer true Jivamukti training. It does, however, offer courses that follow many of the same principles. They are located in Greece and can provide you with a beautiful vacation and and in-depth training.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Conference at Indiana University: Call for Papers\nCritical Questions Series 2: A Reply by James Crossley \u2192\nIn Memoriam: Tim Murphy (1956-2013)\nPosted on March 16, 2013 by Craig Martin\nWe regret to share that Tim Murphy (Associate Professor of Religious Studies, University of Alabama; Ph.D., University of California, Santa Cruz), passed away yesterday after a protracted battle with cystic fibrosis (The announcement from the University of Alabama Department of Religious Studies can be found here). Tim was the author of three books, Nietzsche, Metaphor, Religion (SUNY 2001), Representing Religion (Equinox Publishing 2007), and The Politics of Spirit (SUNY 2010), as well as numerous articles\u2014including several that have appeared in the Bulletin over the years. He\u2019s also appeared on the Bulletin blog a few times; in particular, see this two-part interview published in 2011, following the publication of Politics of Spirit.\nI originally met Tim at a reception for the North American Association for the Study of Religion (NAASR) several years ago; I remember talking with him about Nietzsche and Hegel over appetizers and beers. We kept closely in touch on Facebook in between conferences, and I learned that Tim could be the fiercest critic\u2014and I mean that in the best sense possible. We argued about anything and everything relevant to religion and critical theory, and Tim never let up or pulled his punches. He made me a better scholar as a result, always pushing me to make a better argument for my position (or abandon it for a stronger one).\nThe first book of his I read was Representing Religion, which made a strong impression on me. I loved it, and thought to myself: this guy understands and applies Derrida\u2019s work better than anyone else in the study of religion. Tim did a brilliant job of deconstructing phenomenology\u2019s essence/manifestation distinction, and then further developed this critique in The Politics of Spirit; the latter is, in my opinion, the most thorough and damning critique of phenomenology of religion to date.\nTim was one of the sharpest thinkers in religious studies, and I will miss him greatly.\nThis entry was posted in Announcements, Theory and Method, Tim Murphy, Uncategorized and tagged Representing Religion, Tim Murphy. Bookmark the permalink.\n3 Responses to In Memoriam: Tim Murphy (1956-2013)\nTiffany Koch says:\nTim is my uncle and he was one of my closest friends. He gave me copies of all his books, but even the introductions were too lofty for my brain that is small in comparison to his. Never-the-less, he only ever made me feel brilliant. He was a wonderful man and I will miss him dearly. Thank you very much for this tribute.\nKathi Firns-Hubert says:\nI am not one to spend much time on Facebook, but knowing Tim was struggling, I just checked out his page. I am devastated. We had been close friends for over 30 years and he thanked me for what I considered to be minimal assistance by giving me a mention in the beginning of one of his books. Like his niece, I had a difficult time following the argument laid out therein, however, he explained his writings to me in such a way that he never made me feel less intelligent than he. I\u2019m a teacher, but damn, I certainly couldn\u2019t follow his train of thought. He was a lovely man, a great friend, and I will miss his presence on this planet sorely. One of my favorite memories of him was his relationship with my daughter. During a summer he spent in Lawrence writing, we often met for breakfast. He carried my daughter around, playing with her and becoming very close to her as she grew older. We visited in him in Santa Cruz on a vacation, and as a result, I have one of my favorite pictures of him (it\u2019s a shame it\u2019s not digital so I could post it). He\u2019s sitting at a table that juts out over the bay. My lovely 5-year-old daughter is in his lap & he\u2019s giving her bunny ears with that great big smile of his. The last time I saw him we\u2019d stopped for a visit on our way to Florida\u2013to put my brother\u2019s ashes in the Gulf of Mexico because it wasn\u2019t legal to dump his body in like he wanted. That was 2007. I can\u2019t believe it\u2019s been so long. I miss him already. What an incredible spirit, mind, and sense of humor he had. It\u2019s a shame he wasn\u2019t able to hold out until St. Paddy\u2019s Day. He loved it as much as I did. How could you not with a name like Timothy Michael Murphy?\nEric Bugyis says:\nI just sent this note of condolence/remembrance to the Religious Studies Dept. at the University of Alabama, and I thought I\u2019d share it here:\nDear Religious Studies Faculty and Students,\nI was very sad to hear of the recent death of Prof. Tim Murphy, and I wanted to take a moment to send my condolences. Tim was one of my teachers at Case Western Reserve University, and he is a big part of why I now find myself in \u201cthis business,\u201d as he liked to call it. I had been out of touch with him for a while, but one of the last times I did exchange emails with him, he expressed some hesitation at accepting credit for having inspired me to pursue a career in the academic study of religion. He knew that the world of academe could be unforgiving, but he also had an enthusiasm for the subject and a belief in its importance that was infectious. So, I think he understood that once you caught the bug, \u201cthe business\u201d was something you would have to suffer for the sake of \u201cthe art.\u201d\nThe \u201cart\u201d that I learned from Tim was that of scholarship, which he approached both as a constructive and a critical discipline. As a student of Foucault, Tim knew that \u201cdisciplines\u201d were always normative, and he felt deeply the responsibility of being a good teacher of this one. I never felt that he was simply presenting information, but rather, he was initiating us into a praxis, which he wanted to be sure that we were equipped to do with the requisite blend of generosity and fierce criticism that characterized his own work. Indeed, criticism was a generous act, for Tim, because, as Marx showed us, criticism sets people free. Criticism unmasks ideology, which turns our most cherished ideals into a prison.\nAs an undergraduate, Tim gave me the gift of being able to turn this critique on my own relatively unreflective Catholic faith, which actually breathed new life into it by allowing me to separate the ideal from the ideological. I\u2019m sure he would now be truly horrified to hear that he not only inspired me to become a scholar of religion, but also that he had helped me be a better Catholic in the process! But this is the thing that I don\u2019t think some of his colleagues both at Case and in the academy understood: for Tim, religion could be both illusion and illumination, and he really didn\u2019t care which it was. What he did care about was the ability to separate the two, and this is the job of the scholar of religious studies. Nothing can ever be too sacred to submit to critique. But, as a believer, I have also found that rigorous and merciless critique is the best thing you can do to and for the \u201csacred.\u201d\nOf course, not all believers (or scholars!) agree. They often take offense at critique, as if somehow being diagnosed with a case of ideology impugns their character. As if we aren\u2019t all susceptible to ideology, just as we might get any illness regardless of our moral standing. Tim showed me that you could critique someone\u2019s ideas without attacking their character or identity. He also taught me that not everyone would be able to see the difference, but that as a scholar, this is the risk you take. This is something like the dentist who is hated for extracting the rotten tooth. Or, to borrow an image from Tim\u2019s Nietzsche, the scholar/critic of religion is like Christ-the-idiot, whose revolutionary earnestness always comes across as slightly uncouth to those \u201cmature\u201d enough to realize that polite company demands a bit of ironic hypocrisy.\nIn a field so often characterized by both irony and hypocrisy, it was always reassuring to know that Tim was out there, cheering on those who take this work seriously as a \u201cdiscipline\u201d in the true sense. All this is to say that I am in solidarity with your community in Alabama as you both celebrate and grieve Tim\u2019s passing, and I am so happy that he was able to find a place that was so supportive of his work, which I will always consider to be a gift to both scholars and practitioners of religion everywhere.\nEric Bugyis",

        "raw_content": "Obtain an Employer Identification Number\nBefore hiring your first employee, you need to register your business with the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS). To do so, you must obtain an employment identification number (EIN) \u2013 often referred to as a Federal Tax Identification Number, Employer Tax ID or Form SS-4. The EIN is necessary for reporting taxes and other documents to the IRS. In addition, the EIN is necessary when reporting information about your employees to state agencies.\nSet Up a Payroll System to Withhold Taxes\nThe IRS requires that you keep records of employment taxes for at least four years. Keeping good records can also help you monitor the progress of your business, prepare financial statements, identify the sources of receipts, keep track of deductible expenses, prepare your tax returns, and support items reported on tax returns.\nEvery employee must provide their employer with a signed W-4 withholding exemption form so that you can withhold the correct amount from their paychecks. On the W-4 form, employees tell you how many allowances they are claiming for tax purposes. You should ask employees to fill out a new W-4 form each year if they want to change their allowances. For more specific information, read the IRS Employer\u2019s Tax Guide or check out irs.gov.\nVerify Employee Eligibility\nFederal law requires employers to verify an employee\u2019s eligibility to work in the United States. Within three days of hire, employers must complete Form I-9, employment eligibility verification, to confirm the employee\u2019s citizenship or eligibility to work in the U.S. To verify citizenship, employers can only request the documentation specified on the I-9 form.\nEmployers must keep each employees I-9 on file for three years after the date of hire or one year after the date of the employee\u2019s termination, whichever is later.\nEmployers can use information taken from the Form I-9 to electronically verify the employment eligibility of newly hired employees by registering with E-Verify.\nReport New Hires to Your State's Reporting Agency\nAll employers are required to report newly hired and re-hired employees to California\u2019s New Employee Registry within 20 days of their hire or rehire date.\nEvery year, employers must report the amount of wages paid and taxes withheld for each employee on a federal wage and tax statement. This report is filed using Form W-2, wage and tax statement which employers must complete for each employee.\nBy the last day of February, employers must send Copy A of their employees W-2 forms to the Social Security Administration to report wages and taxes of your employees for the previous calendar year. In addition, employers should send copies of W-2 forms to their employees by January 31 of the year following the reporting period. Visit ssa.gov/employer for more information.",

        "raw_content": "China's young generation hampered by lack of jobs\nBEIJING (Reuters) - Nineteen years after a brutal crackdown against student protesters at Beijing\u2019s Tiananmen Square, China\u2019s youth are more focused on iPods, designer jeans and buying their first car than political reform.\nHip-hop dancers perform at an open space near the West Lake in Hangzhou, capital of east China's Zhejiang Province, in this October 13, 2003 file photo. Nineteen years after a brutal crackdown against student protesters at Beijing's Tiananmen Square, China's youth are more focused on iPods, designer jeans and buying their first car than political reform. REUTERS/Claro Cortes IV/Files\nMost of all they are worried about getting well paid jobs and a share of the newfound wealth that many Chinese professionals are enjoying as the economy surges ahead with double-digit growth.\nThat is easier said than done. Last summer, China had to provide jobs for nearly 5 million college graduates. This summer, 5.6 million more are getting ready to move out of dormitories and into the job market.\nOften the first in their family to get higher education, these graduates of colleges and vocational schools have high expectations that are not being met despite soaring economic growth as there are more graduates than jobs in China.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a saying, \u2018as soon as you graduate, you are unemployed\u2019,\u201d said Xia Ding, who got his degree last year and, like many of his classmates, decided to apply for a master\u2019s programme when a job didn\u2019t come up.\nThe average employment rate of recent graduates was 73 percent in autumn 2007, the China Daily said, citing Ministry of Education figures.\n\u201cThe birthrate in the 1950s through early 1970s was very high. The baby boomers born in those years are now adults,\u201d said Ha Jiming, chief economist at China International Capital Corp.\n\u201cNow it\u2019s the second wave, of baby boomers\u2019 babies. Their children are now in their twenties and many are in college,\u201d said Ha, whose research shows China will have a labor surplus through 2015.\nWide-ranging economic reforms in the last 30 years have allowed students to dream of college rather than a factory job.\nColleges have built new classrooms and brushed up their campuses, but their graduates often cannot compete with the rush of students returning to China from overseas.\n\u201cCollege graduates want higher salaries but they have no experience,\u201d Ha said, adding that companies would rather poach workers than take a chance on a fresh graduate.\n\u201cPart of the problem is the local education system, whether it has produced students who are suitable for society or just those who know some basic concepts and can memorize,\u201d he said, referring to the system of rote learning that is standard in China.\nMost Chinese college students were barely toddlers in the spring of 1989, when a frustrated earlier generation gathered in Tiananmen Square to demonstrate for political reform before a bloody crackdown on June 4.\nInflation was one of the protesters\u2019 concerns in 1989. Today, inflation hovers above 8 percent \u2014 well below the peak reached in 1994 but still worrying to central planners who fret about social stability.\nToday\u2019s generation worries more about getting ahead than economic reform. Their activism is more likely to have nationalist overtones, as witnessed during demonstrations against Japan in 2005 or outside Carrefour stores this spring because of the French chain\u2019s rumored connection with pro-Tibet activities.\nBut the government doesn\u2019t take any chances.\nInternet access at China\u2019s prestigious Peking University is more tightly controlled than it is at residences in Beijing, while other Beijing universities are ending term a few weeks early this summer to make sure students clear out of the city before the Olympic games in August.\nEven an outpouring of donations and volunteer efforts after the devastating May 12 earthquake was quickly channeled by the state. Officials insisted that private efforts were \u201cunder the leadership of the Communist Party\u201d and state media coverage featured government, party and army \u201cheroes.\u201d\nStill, the biggest challenge is to ensure the economic machine runs smoothly for young people.\nWith one-third more graduates than jobs, the Ministry of Education has taken on the task of organizing job fairs both online and in cities. The noisy fairs attract tens of thousands of young people who press up to booths, clutching resumes.\n\u201cA lot of us wouldn\u2019t mind if the system of job assignments was back in place,\u201d Xia said.\nAn older generation of graduates chafed under the job assignment system, which guaranteed a job to every graduate until it was phased out in the late 1990s.\nBefore that, students scrambled to avoid being assigned to poorer areas, where salaries and career prospects were low, but those without special connections could do little to avoid dead-end postings.\nIn today\u2019s competitive economy, the number of colleges graduates is keeping entry-level office salaries low, leaving many to worry about how they will ever be able to afford a home.\nProperty reforms in the late 1990s sparked a real estate boom, making many rich but putting apartments out of reach for young people.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of pressure on graduates nowadays,\u201d said Xia\u2019s worried mother. She estimated that higher interest rates mean a graduate needs a salary that clears 5,000 yuan ($720) a month just to afford a mortgage.\n\u201cThey have to have an apartment and a car, otherwise how on earth are they going to get married?\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Grant Hackett resurfacing in time for Beijing\nSYDNEY (Reuters) - Plenty of male swimmers have won the same individual event at two Olympics but none has claimed three in a row. Grant Hackett plans to change that.\nGrant Hackett celebrates after winning the men's 1500 metre freestyle final at the Australian team selection trials for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, in Sydney March 29, 2008. REUTERS/Daniel Munoz\nHackett has chosen the most grueling event of them all, the 1,500 meters freestyle, and after a change of lifestyle and coach the 27-year-old Australian is back on course for this unique achievement.\n\u201cI don\u2019t feel any pressure,\u201d team captain Hackett said at the Australian Olympic trials.\n\u201cYou do set a certain standard for yourself and if you\u2019ve broken world records in the past it doesn\u2019t get any easier as you get older.\u201d\nIt takes a special kind of person to choose the 1,500 because competitors have to spend up to six hours a day in the pool, churning through 100 kilometers a week.\nTall and skinny with a huge armspan, Hackett has the perfect build for a long-distance swimmer and his versatility allows him to swim every distance from 200 to 1,500.\nThe 1,500 world record holder, Hackett was unbeaten for a decade and once also held the world mark for 200. He is the second fastest swimmer of all time over 400.\nAt one stage, it really seemed that Hackett was invincible until suddenly his body started to fail him.\nHackett won his second Olympic title in 2004 despite swimming the final with a partially collapsed lung and he recovered to win his fourth straight world title in 2005.\nHis right shoulder was the next to surrender. He underwent surgery in November 2005 which forced him to pull out of the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne.\nWORST SHAPE\nLater in 2006, he began having back problems and was then diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma. He arrived at the 2007 world championships in Melbourne in the worst shape of his career and it showed.\nHe finished third in the 400, seventh in the 800 and seventh in the 1,500, ending his unbeaten run.\nTwo years earlier he had won all three events at the world championships in Montreal to beat Michael Phelps for the title of the world\u2019s best male swimmer but a younger breed of long-distance swimmers was starting to emerge.\nHackett was beginning to have doubts about his chances of winning in Beijing and decided he needed a change.\nSo he left his Gold Coast home, where he had lived all his life, moved to Melbourne and married Australian singer Candice Alley.\nHe also split with Dennis Cotterell, who had coached him for 20 years, and appointed Ian Pope as his coach.\nIt was a risky decision but the tide began to turn. In August, he swam his fastest time since 1995 to beat the new world champion Mateusz Sawrymowicz of Poland at the Japan Open.\nIn March, he proved he was anything but a spent force at the Australian trials, winning the 200, 400 and 1,500 treble.\nHackett is not swimming the 200 in Beijing. He had hoped to take part in the 10-km open water race, which is being included on the Games programme for the first time, but was disqualified from the world championship race \u2014 the Olympic qualifying event \u2014 in Seville on Sunday for hampering other swimmers.\nHe is likely to start as one of the favorites in the 400 but he is focusing on the 1,500.\nHis world record of 14 minutes 34.56 seconds, set at the 2001 world championships, remains more than seven seconds faster than anyone else has swum despite the United States offering $1 million to any American who could better it.\nHis winning time at the trials was 14:48.65, quicker than the winning time set by Russia\u2019s Yuri Prilukov at this year\u2019s European championships.\nHackett knows he will have to go even faster to win a third medal in Beijing but says the most important thing is that he has rediscovered his self-belief.\nAustralia's swimmer Grant Hackett swims in the pool during training in Melbourne May 7, 2008. REUTERS/Mick Tsikas\n\u201cThat\u2019s the first step out of the way,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cNow I\u2019m really looking forward to putting my head down and doing some hard training.\n\u201cI was seven seconds faster than I was leading into Athens and about eight seconds faster than I was before Sydney, so I am most certainly in a better position than I was leading into those Olympic Games.\n\u201cI just want to have no regrets \u2014 that\u2019s all you can finish with. You can\u2019t control other people\u2019s performances.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Equilibria of an ODE system\nThis is a homework that I should have done long ago, but unfortunately nobody assigned it to me. The previous post concerned a particular ODE system of Newtonian dynamics: force depends on position only, but is not necessarily conservative. In a formula, , where is a vector-valued function of time . (In this post I stop drawing arrows over vectors.) It is natural to rewrite this as a 1st order system. The new system as a Jacobian matrix of special form:\nwhere consists of the partial derivatives of . When the force is conservative, the matrix is symmetric, and consequently is a Hamiltonian matrix. However, in general is not Hamiltonian, and I don\u2019t know if such block matrices have a name at all.\nWhat\u2019s in a name? It\u2019s the eigenvalues we are after. The first thing to observe is: is an eigenvalue of if and only if is an eigenvalue of . Indeed, suppose that is an eigenvector for . Here and are -dimensional vectors: it is natural to write vectors in such block form when dealing with block matrices. Performing block-by-block multiplication in the equation\nwe obtain . Thus, and ; put this together to get . All steps can be reversed: if is an eigenvalue of , then we can take such that , let , and thus construct an eigenvector for .\nWe now understand enough to into divide the situation into two cases.\nCase 1. The matrix has an eigenvalue that does not belong to .\nCase 2. All eigenvalues of are in (are nonpositive real numbers).\nIn Case 1 the matrix has at least one eigenvalue with positive real part, namely one of two square roots of an eigenvalue . Hence, the corresponding equilibrium is unstable.\nIn Case 2 all eigenvalues of have zero real part, and so the equilibrium is non-hyperbolic and we cannot determine its stability by looking at .\nThis raises the question: how can we tell whether has only nonpositive eigenvalues? Here is an easy necessary condition: the characteristic polynomial of must have nonnegative coefficients. Indeed, where for all . Multiplying out, we do not get negative numbers anywhere. This is a practical condition to check, since it does not require us solve the characteristic polynomial: we only look at its coefficients. However, it is not sufficient.\nThere is also a sufficient condition. Since changing the sign of a matrix flips the signs of all eigenvalues, we can just as well ask whether has only nonnegative eigenvalues. A sufficient condition is: all minors (submatrices) of have nonnegative determinant. Here is a longer explanation:\nA matrix is totally positive if all of its minors have positive determinant. This involves minors of all sizes. For example, in a 3\u00d73 matrix we would have to check that: each entry (1\u00d71 minor) is positive; each of 9 2\u00d72 minors has positive determinant, and the determinant of the whole matrix is positive. Quite a bit of work. The reward is great, however: all eigenvalues of a totally positive matrix are strictly positive. So there was (and still is) substantial interest in reducing the number of minors that need to be checked to verify that a given matrix is totally positive. Fomin\u2019s minicourse on total positivity gives links to several resources on the subject of total positivity. Unfortunately the more accessible ones, such as Ando\u2019s 1987 survey Totally positive matrices, are behind paywalls.\nA matrix is totally nonnegative if all of its minors have nonnegative determinant. All eigenvalues of a totally nonnegative matrix are nonnegative. The sources of information are the same as for totally positive matrices.\nBeing totally nonnegative is a sufficient condition for having nonnegative eigenvalues, but of course not necessary: has two positive eigenvalues, for example.\nPrevious Previous post: Uniqueness for an ODE system\nNext Next post: IVP vs BVP",

Jim Wells/Postmedia\tJim Wells/Postmedia\nAdded civilian oversight of police conduct and increased flexibility in managing police work are among key goals for a group of city councillors and the head of the Calgary\u2019s police union as they demand an update of Alberta\u2019s Police Act.\nA notice of motion set to be presented to council Monday says current legislation isn\u2019t fit to address realities of policing and Calgary Police Association president Les Kaminski said \u201cthere\u2019s a desperate need to have it fixed.\u201d\n\u201cThere\u2019s so many things that are so old and outdated it needs to get looked at and sooner than later,\u201d he said about the document, which he said was four decades old.\n\u201cSome of the big things that really affect our members are the ways hearings are conducted. We need it to be more independent so we get more fairness.\u201d\nA request within the notice is to have the act include civilian oversight of police professional conduct \u2014 something Kaminski said is critical to earning the public\u2019s trust.\n\u201cThe public needs to feel like when they make a complaint, that it\u2019s looked at fairly and equitably,\u201d said Kaminski. \u201cThey also need to feel like the deck isn\u2019t stacked against them and we believe it can be achieved through true independence \u2014 by somebody that has no connection to either party to make a decision on the information they are presented.\u201d\nCoun. Shane Keating said he wants to see the act updated to acknowledge social media and new ways of documenting events.\n\u201cYou go back to when it was first implemented and it was long before the wide use of social media, smartphones, the internet and a number of those things,\u201d he said.\nCoun. Ward Sutherland, who sits on the Calgary Police Commission, which governs the force, compares the Police Act to the Municipal Government Act in the need to update documentation.\n\u201cThe challenge is that it\u2019s just like the Municipal Government Act \u2014 we had an overhaul and a review of all our MGA policies that were outdated,\u201d said Sutherland.\n\u201cThis is identical to the process where we\u2019re asking to say that the Police Act is very old, there hasn\u2019t been changes in the Police Act.\n\u201cThe act isn\u2019t flexible and doesn\u2019t give us the ability to address several different issues within the act to make it more efficient, more effective in managing police services.\u201d\nSutherland said Alberta\u2019s police support of an overhaul.\n\u201cThe chiefs have gotten together and asked for a review and updating of the act, so there is support across the province for this,\u201d said Sutherland.\nIn the past decade, consultations regarding an updated Police Act were to no avail. The sentiment was echoed by Calgary police Chief Roger Chaffin in February 2016, four months after he was hired into the role.\n\u201cOne of the principle functions of one area of the service will be primarily to address Police Act reform. I think it\u2019s that important, that meaningful,\u201d said Chaffin at the time.\nKeating said he would like to see police-worn body cameras become more commonplace in modern policing.\n\u201cWe\u2019re getting into the body cameras and vehicle cameras and I think those should be prominent,\u201d said Keating.\n\u201cThey should be much easier to obtain and much easier to put in.\u201d\nThe sentiment was echoed by Kaminski.\n\u201cI have been pushing for body cameras but the service has been so slow to unfold it has just been painful,\u201d said Kaminski.\n\u201cBody cameras are essential. What it does is it brings perspective from a police officers point of view into the equation. Instead of just a little bit portion of it from someone\u2019s telephone camera.\n\u201cThey don\u2019t tell the entire story, but they give more of the story.\u201d\nThis past February, police kicked off their second attempt at equipping cameras on officers, after an initial attempt was plagued with technical problems and hardware failures. They hope to have 250 equipped on officers by the end of the year.\nIn a statement, Alberta Justice said the ministry will continue to work with police ensuring they have the tools needed.\n\u201cWe have heard from stakeholders that a review of the Police Act would be valuable in helping to modernize policing in Alberta. We look forward to seeing if this motion is approved by council and will continue to work with our policing partners to ensure that they have the tools and legislation needed to best support and protect our communities.\u201d\n\u2019You may not see them, but they see you\u2019: Cougar attack...

        "raw_content": "Based on Agatha Christie\u2019s best-selling novel of the same name, Murder on the Orient Express explores one of her more thrilling cases about the spectacular Belgian detective Hercule Poirot\u2019s.\nIn need of some well-deserved respite, Poirot plans to have a few days off from catching thieves and murderers. Unfortunately, some urgent news from London requires that he return immediately, and so Poirot boards the Orient Express in Istanbul with 12 other peculiar passengers.\nAs they embark on their journey across Europe, the train derails into a snowbank, and in the aftermath it is revealed that one of the passengers has been murdered.\nWhen I read Christie\u2019s novel, I was enthralled with the very idea of a fancy train carriage full of all sorts of mysterious characters, each with something to hide, trapped until the snow melts. With a sense of claustrophobia and mistrust, they wait anxiously while Poirot works through the evidence and figures out \u2018whodunnit\u2019. It\u2019s like Cluedo on a train!\nThough cinematic, director Kenneth Branagh\u2019s retelling veers too far off course from Christie\u2019s original text, ramping up the drama and adding way too many levels of moral ambiguity. Poirot becomes anguished by what is right and wrong, which is barely touched on in the book. In the book, Poirot simply wants to find out the truth and return home.\nAs the film struggles to get back on track, it begins to seem like this might just be Branagh\u2019s passion project. He does direct, produce and star as the lead role, after all. And Poirot, though relatively true to his unyielding, no-nonsense self, does seem to tire easily as the film goes on.\n*Murder on the Orient Express was seen at Dendy Canberra.\nCrime, Kenneth Branagh, Murder on the Orient Express",

Krzyzewski University Professor in Leadership and Faculty Director for the Center for Energy, Development and Global Environment (EDGE) at Duke University\u2019s Fuqua School of Business. As EDGE Faculty Director, Dr. Larrick helps facilitate Fuqua faculty involvement in research and teaching on energy and the environment. He also works to build connections between Fuqua and other members of the larger Duke University community interested in energy and the environment.\nHis research focuses on environmental and energy decisions by consumers, employees, and the general public. Dr. Larrick published an article in Science in June 2008 with Jack Soll called \u201cThe MPG Illusion\u201d showing that the common fuel efficiency measure \u201cMiles per Gallon\u201d produces systematic misjudgments by car buyers, leading consumers to undervalue improvements on inefficient vehicles. The authors recommended a consumption metric (\u201cGallons per 100 Miles\u201d) as a measure that was more useful to consumers. The research was featured in the New York Times Magazine\u2019s Year in Ideas in December, 2008 and influenced the inclusion of Gallons per 100 Miles on the current fuel economy label for new automobiles. His more recent research has examined additional ways to make energy consumption more understandable and useful to consumers. For a summary of these ideas, see Larrick, Soll, and Keeney\u2019s (2015) article in the journal Behavioral Science and Policy.\nDr. Larrick also conducts research on motivation, negotiation, and group decision making. He has published in leading psychology, management, and general science journals, including the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Psychological Review, Cognitive Psychology, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and is an associate editor for the journal Management Science. He teaches courses on Leadership, Ethics, and Organizations and on Power and Politics in Organizations. Dr. Larrick holds a secondary appointment in the Duke\u2019s Department of Psychology and Neuroscience.\nPrior to joining Duke, he taught at Northwestern University\u2019s Kellogg Graduate School of Management and at the University of Chicago\u2019s Graduate School of Business.

        "raw_content": "Here at Central Animal Hospital, we are proud to offer nutritional counseling to keep pets at healthy weights. If they are too big, we offer counseling to get your pets back to the weight they should be.\nObesity is a common problem for our pets. Many people enjoy giving their pets \u201cpeople food\u201d as a treat, but it is quite harmful for them. Overfeeding also makes pets too heavy. If you want healthy pets who live a long and happy lives, you need to be careful about what they eat. Exercise is also necessary for a healthy life.\nCutting back on food is not always helpful because then your pets won\u2019t get enough of the nutrients they need. Because of this, it is important to balance the amount of food with the amount of exercise to help your pets lose weight.\nSometimes a diet change is necessary, especially for older animals that are not as active. Many veterinarians recommend changing to a diet that is low in fat but still has plenty of protein and fiber. More often, owners need to adjust how they feed their pets, especially after they are neutered and start to become less active. They might not be able to leave food out all of the time and instead, start measuring the food and feeding meals. Sometimes, low-calorie food will help too.\nOverweight animals, especially those that are obese, can have a lot of health problems. Their average lifespan is often a few years fewer than if they were at a healthy weight. For this reason, now is the time to make a change to give your pets the best chance at healthy lives.\nIf you have any questions, concerns, or would like to set up an appointment to talk about the weight of your pets, don\u2019t hesitate to contact us today.",

Introducing the tool of systems constellation in an accessible way, this introduction to a broader perspective will support those who wish to take their management approach out of the dark ages. Case studies, encouragement, exercises for teams, facilitators, coaches, and administrators make this book a must read. In addition to having direct application to organizational consultation, this book has the capacity to accompany one in the area of personal growth. Harrison\u2019s decades of international corporate consultation and experience as a facilitator of systems constellation serve both the book and the reader. Great read! \u201c\nFrancesca Mason Boring,\nFacilitator, Author: Family Systems Constellations and Other Systems\nConstellation Adventures, A transformational journey\n\u201cIt does not matter how widely you have read, you are likely to find more than\na few previously unknown jewels.\u201d\nCheck out this Book Review \u2013 published in The Knowing Field by Dr. Chris Walsh\nAuthor\u2019s Note: This is a groundbreaking business book that introduces a radically new approach to organizational change and leadership development. The methodology offered in the book shows leaders how they can identify and transform the hidden obstacles to change. Some may consider the Corporate Shaman concepts a bit edgy and even slightly weird. However, I\u2019ve been in this business enough years to remember practices like \u201cmindfulness\u201d now considered mainstream were thought to be too radical or strange when they were first introduced in the eighties and nineties. In five or ten years the concepts behind the Corporate Shaman approach will also find their place on the shelf of standard practices.\nTools for Team: The Manager\u2019s Guide to Building High-Performance Teams\nby Harrison Snow\n\u201cAs a manager I find Harrison\u2019s practical advice on how to make teams work\nvery useful. What makes his book different, is that he invites us to look\nunderneath the surface to understand why a relationship may not work as\nwell as we wish, and encourages us to look deeper inside ourselves when\nwe seek ways to make teams work better.\u201d\nKonrad Von Ritter\nSector Manager, World Bank\n\u201cHarrison brings a wealth of team building experience and ingenuity to this totally indispensable tool for managers.\u201d\nPeter B. Grazier, President\nTeambuildinginc.com\nAuthor\u2019s Note: Open up Tools For Teams and find the right tool to build your team. From crafting a strategic vision and managing change to dealing with the nitty-gritty of interpersonal conflict and poor performance, it provides the full range of proven skills, techniques and programs that will develop trust, commitment, and results. Tools For Teams offers 368 pages of team building models, experiences, activities, techniques, and programs that will turbo-charge your team\u2019s performance. Because of its comprehensive approach, it was the course text for aspiring team leaders studying at Everglades University. There are imitators but my book is the original Tools for Teams.\nIndoor/Outdoor Team Building Games for Trainers\n\u201cThis book is a wonderful collection of activities that will build and challenge your team. The book is spiral bound so it allows you to \u201ctake it with you\u201d and use it wherever your team is. The activities are not just the typical version, they are challenging, exciting, and when used can help you establish a solid foundation. The book is easy to follow and does include some diverse games and activities. No two are alike.\u201d\nThis collection of fun, physical activities from the world of adventure-based training gives trainers a complete team-building program\u2013more than enough activities to put together a multiday schedule if desired. Included are warm-ups, trust builders, communication exercises, problem-solving activities, activities for more than one team, and closure sessions. Each exercise requires only simple props, such as rubber balls, blindfolds, and rope, and each is complete with learning objectives, equipment needs time goals, directions, and debriefing and safety guidelines. These same activities have provided successful team learning experiences for thousands of participants. Now all companies\u2013small and large\u2013can enjoy the benefits of adventure-based team building without leaving their own backyards!\nThe Power of Team Building Using Ropes Techniques\n\u201cthe book is a useful reference for anyone who is involved with the\ndevelopment of teams. The list of activities is quite good and for the\nprofessional trainer, the book is an excellent wealth of information.\u201d\n\u201cBought this used for a couple of bucks, Great!\u201d\nAuthor\u2019s note: I got the inspiration to write this book when I started facilitating team building programs for corporate groups in the eighties. There was little published then about how to build teams using experiential learning. From my own hands-on experience, I would see that this approach quickly led to a real-time change in the dynamics of a team around problem-solving and decision. It\u2019s hard to imagine now but often people would look at me when I introduced the concept of teamwork and say something like, \u201cWhy work as a team? The boss is going to make all the decisions!\u201d So the book was about filling in that gap in knowledge about why and how to work as a team and the individual and collective skills that are needed. The technology in the workplace has changed a lot in the last twenty plus years but the same teamwork skills are even more needed and necessary.",

This research will determine the impact of decisions that campuses make in how to recruit participants and deliver the program as well as a number of other factors in maintenance of the fidelity and effectiveness of the program.\nWe are looking to enroll an additional 4-5 Canadian universities in the study over the next two years. We are particularly interested in enrolling universities in Western and Eastern Canada. Please contact khobden@uwindsor.ca if you would like more information.\nIn 2016 I developed, piloted, and revised a Train the Trainer workshop to which universities, colleges, and community groups can send staff to become EAAA Campus/Community Trainers. Once trained, these Trainers are qualified (with some support from SARE Centre and Wen-Do) to train EAAA Program Facilitators to deliver the EAAA intervention on their campuses or in their communities.\nFor universities involved in the research, the Train the Trainer workshops will be offered annually. For universities wishing to implement but who cannot (e.g., U.S.) or do not wish to be part of the research, the Train the Trainer workshops will be offered through the SARE Centre, a nonprofit organization I recently founded to support the implementation of the EAAA program in postsecondary institutions across North America.\nEAAA Randomized Controlled Trial \u2013 Efficacy on 3 Canadian campuses (2011-2016)\nA randomized controlled trial (RCT) funded by a 2011-2016 Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Operating grant) evaluated the efficacy of the EAAA Sexual Assault Resistance program on three Canadian university campuses. Over 900 women were randomly assigned to receive either the EAAA intervention (resistance group) or brief exposure to brochures (control group). Women\u2019s experiences of sexual assault were assessed before the intervention and again at one week, 6, 12, 18, and (for half the sample) 24 months after the intervention. Compared to women in the control group, women in the resistance group were 46% less likely to have experienced a completed rape and 63% less likely to have experienced an attempted rape in the year following the intervention. We now know that the reductions in sexual assault and positive outcomes on self-confidence, attitudes, and knowledge are maintained for at least 2 years. Further, women who experience a sexual assault following their participation in EAAA blame themselves less than women who have not attended EAAA.\nThe results of this research were first published in the June 11, 2015 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine. A three-minute video describing the study results can be viewed on NEJMs youtube channel.\nThen \u2026 The two-year and secondary outcomes were published in the Psychology of Women Quarterly in 2017.\nThe full study protocol as well as a description of the baseline sample was published in separate issues of BMC\u2019s Women\u2019s Health, BMC Women\u2019s Health.2013, 13:25. DOI: 10.1186/1472-6874-13-25 and BMC Women\u2019s Health 2014, 14:135 doi:10.1186/s12905-014-0135-4, respectively.\nThe EAAA program is the culmination of over 10 years of research, development and pilot testing. The initial Assess, Acknowledge, Act (AAA) program was carefully designed to reduce woman-blaming/self-blaming attitudes and beliefs and succeeds in achieving that goal (see Senn, Gee, & Saunders, 2008). The program was recently evaluated in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which the one-year incidence of completed and attempted rape was reduced by 46% and 63% respectively, for women who took the EAAA intervention compared to women in the control group.\nThe EAAA is now available to universities and colleges through the SARE Centre non-profit and a Train-the-Trainer model.

They are thus inducted into extra-curricular activity even at this very young stage and develop multi-varied interests while waiting for their parents to come and pick them up after their work. The minimum age for enrolment is two years as we believe that upto 2 years the child must necessarily be comforted at the hands of his/her mother or near relatives.\nAdequate staff has been provided to take care of all the children in a safe environment. They have been trained to respect each child as an individual in its own right without the need for regimented care. The child is offered the maximum freedom of movement within the norms of its security. The development of its personal skills is closely monitored such as eye hand co-ordination, power of observation and audio-visual recognition.",

        "raw_content": "As printed in Simply The Best Magazine May/June 2013 Issue\nDr. Cheri Florance, Boca Raton-Based Brain Scientist, Selects Team of Experts to Instruct Children and Adults Classified as Autistic\nCheri Florance, Ph.D. is a world renowned brain scientist trained at the National Institute of Health, best-selling author of The Maverick Mind, and founder of Brain Engineering Labs (www.cheriflorance.com) based in Boca Raton. Brain Engineering Labs was developed to unlock the potential, enhance the quality of life and sharpen the skills of children and adults diagnosed with symptoms of Autism Spectrum, ADD, PDD, and other disorders of communication, language, learning, and behavior.\nIn March, 11-year-old Ben came to Boca with his mom from their home in Toronto, not only to visit his grandparents, but also to work with Dr. Florance and her team at the Boca Raton Resort and Club. Under her supervision and direction, her handpicked team of experts and professionals created an ideal environment to help with Ben\u2019s training.\nBen was diagnosed with autism in preschool. Ben is a highly visual thinker who scored in the superior range on a battery of tests that measure visual attention, visual memory, and visual processing. His highly visual parents \u2014 his mom is a veterinarian, his dad is a successful and visionary business executive \u2014 knew that autism was not the right diagnosis and went looking for alternative answers.\nAfter searching worldwide, Ben\u2019s parents discovered Dr. Florance who agreed that Ben\u2019s strong visual thinking was interfering with his ability to think verbally, and his overworking visual brain created symptoms that mimicked autism.\nAlong with her team, Dr. Florance created simulators for Ben\u2019s \u201cbrain transfer\u201d so he can fully re-engineer his brain, step-bystep.\nThe team of professionals for Ben included:\n????Ann Sapede, former Radio City Rockette dancer, taught Ben to listen to words, pull them out of the background music and imitate what he sees and the words he processes simultaneously.\nLynn Stender, artist, taught Ben how to move his ideas from pictures in his brain to expressive art and then into words.\nErik Silver, director of the tennis program at the Boca Hotel & Resort, worked with Ben to process quickly and accurately in a series of drills.\nPatricia Chevalier, a French teacher and native speak of French, created academic classroom listening, reading, writing, and speaking in a third language, after the visual thinking in English.\nIn the past few months, Ben has shown remarkable improvements at school using his newly trained verbal brain; he has improved as an athletic and contributes creatively as a member of his family. His maternal grandparents and paternal grandmother are residents of Boca. The family is thrilled with his progress and anticipates even greater life fulfilling progress.\nDr. Florance develops individualized training or \u201cbrain re-engineering\u201d plans that teach attention, memory, listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. The training begins with custom-built labs designed to stop the fighting between the visual and the verbal sides of the brain. \u201cWe want the verbal brain to work as a second language,\u201d she explains. \u201cThe first language will always be the visual, non-verbal thinking. But a great second language can be developed for verbal attention, memory and processing.\u201d To do so, verbal processing simulators are used for transfer of training.\nShe adds, \u201cMy team is not a traditional team, rather I choose professionals to serve as the best \u2018transfer agents\u2019 to achieve lifelong results for each client. The team is completely custom selected for this highly critical lab experience.\u201d Recent examples include:\n???? For a high school student, a physics professor was brought in to teach the main idea for every chapter in the student\u2019s text book\n???? For a college student, Florance took him to a cooking class at Sur Le Table to work with the chef\n???? For a pre-law student, a consulting lawyer taught how to take notes on the computer while listening to a complicated lecture\n???? For a middle school student with great art talent, Florance took her to the Boca Museum of Art\nOver the past 16 years, Dr. Cheri Florance has studied over 1,000 Maverick Minds (visual thinkers), who come from highly visual families, and who have problems in verbal attention, memory, and processing. Mavericks are very frequently misdiagnosed as having an ASD \u2014 autism, Asperger\u2019s, attention deficit disorder, pervasive developmental disorder or amotivational syndrome (in other words, \u201cnot trying hard enough\u201d).\nAccording to Dr. Florance, a misdiagnosis of mental illness can lead to a chronic life-long disability, whereas a diagnosis of a communication disorder leads to the expectation that the skills that are lacking can be taught. Here is where the team of experts come in and plays a vital role in teaching clients how to think verbally.\nIn addition to the information found on her website, www.cheriflorance.com, Dr. Florance sends free education brochures and materials to every family who contacts her. braindr@drcheriflorance.com or 866-865-9820.",

        "title": "Janaye Ingram On Barack Obama\u2019s Black Male Initiative | The Chicago Defender",
        "raw_content": "Being My Brother\u2019s Keeper\nThe President signed a critical initiative focused on the needs of black and brown boys and young men. It\u2019s an important step and a reminder that we need to support young brothers and encourage them to be more than a stereotype.\nThere are moments when people crowd around a screen, paralyzed by the action that is playing out. Those moments when people are unified in an event and bound together by the emotion of what they are watching. It was that type of experience that held the attention of the staff in the DC Bureau of National Action Network as we watched the announcement by President Obama discussing the issues of young men and boys of color. It was a moment that brought tears to our eyes as we understood the significance of the first black President standing in front of a group of young minority men while addressing the needs that he could identify with and trying to remedy inequalities that too many in society deny exist.\nMinority youth, particularly Blacks and Latinos, often face unique challenges that their White counterparts do not. In many facets of life including education, interactions with the criminal justice system, and unemployment, men of color are on the wrong side of the statistics. The phenomenon is nothing new. Despite gains of men within each ethnic group to great levels of success, there are still many more that face stumbling blocks that fragment their growth and debilitate their potential.\nNow, with commitments from major foundations including The Annie E. Casey Foundation, The Atlantic Philanthropies, Bloomberg Philanthropies, The California Endowment, The Ford Foundation, The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, The Open Society Foundations, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, The W.K. Kellogg Foundation, and The Kapor Center for Social Impact, collectively we can address the obstacles that Black and Latino men have faced for decades if not centuries. Working specifically in the areas of early childhood education and preparedness for school, parental engagement in education, literacy, ladders of opportunity, and interactions with the criminal justice system among others, the foundations will work to find the best practices in these areas and have committed at least $200 million to the effort.\nOne of the things the President addressed more than once in his speech was the absence of fathers in the lives of young men. He discussed it with the young men who were standing on the stage with him, it was mentioned by the young man introducing him and it was mentioned again as the President recalled a conversation with US Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx. A father\u2019s presence is vitally important in any child\u2019s life, but to young men of color, it\u2019s even more needed. The unfortunate truth is that there aren\u2019t enough fathers who participate in their children\u2019s lives for too many reasons to enumerate. What\u2019s needed in the gap are mentors, specifically, men who step up and provide the younger generation with insight into how to cope with the challenges of life and how to capitalize on the opportunities.\nDuring NAN\u2019s Annual Convention, April 9th \u2013 12th in New York City, we will host a Black Male Panel for the second year in a row focused on the topics of fatherhood and mentorship. Through the panel we plan to address specific actions that organizations and individuals can focus on to ensure that our young men are being properly guided. When we are able to uplift our men and restore their confidence in a society where they have at times been castigated and pushed aside, we will be able to restore strength to our community and promise to future generations. But it will take the commitment of more than the President to make it happen. We are all our brother\u2019s keepers and we must participate in helping to see this initiative to its zenith.\nBeing My Brother\u2019s Keeper was originally published on newsone.com\nBarack Obama\t, janaye ingram",

        "raw_content": "Be heart-ready for Lent in 2018\nThis year there is a very special day on February 14th. It\u2019s special because it is Valentine\u2019s Day \u2013 and millions of cards and gifts will be shared. But it\u2019s special in the church because it is Ash Wednesday \u2013 and that marks the beginning of the six weeks called Lent.\nLent is the time when Christians take time to try and live God\u2019s way, the way that Jesus showed us. At the end of Lent comes Good Friday, when we remember the big love of God on the cross where Jesus died. Then comes Easter day, when we celebrate that love brings life and joy to the world.\nValentine\u2019s Day is about love \u2013 and so is Lent. There are three things that we can do with the big love that is at the heart of Lent and Valentine\u2019s Day:-\nBig love says thank you: Valentine\u2019s Day helps us to tell people we love them. Sometimes that is people who know \u2013 and sometimes it is a surprise to people who don\u2019t know! It can be about romantic love between couples \u2013 but this Valentine\u2019s Day why not say thank you for other kinds of love as well? A special card for a grandparent or a child, a chocolate heart left on the desk of a teacher or colleague. All these remind us to say thank you for love.\nBig love gives up: Lent is traditionally a time when Christians try to live carefully, and follow the example of Jesus more closely. This often means giving up things for a season; things like chocolate or crisps, social media or TV watching. Love often means giving up something for other people \u2013 being unselfish and generous, thoughtful and kind. As a family, you could decide to give up something for Lent and every time you go to do that thing, instead take a second to pray for God\u2019s love to be known in the world.\nBig love takes up: Lent is also a time when Christians decide to take up new ways of living, perhaps giving more away, praying more, reading the Bible more. Sometimes it means doing something that takes a bit of extra time or effort. Love goes the extra mile for other people, taking time to listen, to do new things together and to make a difference to the world. As a family, you could decide to take up something for Lent \u2013 doing something together that shares God\u2019s love with others. Christian Aid offers a calendar called \u2018Counting Your Blessings\u2019 that offers simple ideas and reflections for Lent that are suitable for children. Follow this link to see the calendar.\nA prayer for Valentine\u2019s/Lent:\nMake a heart shape with your hands (or hold a simple heart shape).\n\u201cDear God \u2013 thank you for all the love in our lives and in the world. Help us to share that love with other people each and every day.\u201d\nHold both hands out, palms up\n\u201cDear God, give us courage to let go of things this Lent. Help us to discover more about following Jesus and sharing his love in the world.\u201c\nMake a cross shape with your hands (or hold a simple cross).\n\u201cDear God, as we think about your big love for us this Lent, help us to take up new ways of living. Help us to live generously and make a difference to others.",

        "raw_content": "Melting polar ice sheets will alter weather\nSea level rise and melting polar ice sheets may not cause a climate catastrophe, but they will certainly change weather patterns unpredictably.\nLONDON, 15 February, 2019 \u2013 The global weather is about to get worse. The melting polar ice sheets will mean rainfall and windstorms could become more violent, and hot spells and ice storms could become more extreme.\nThis is because the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica are melting, to affect what were once stable ocean currents and airflow patterns around the globe.\nPlanetary surface temperatures could rise by 3\u00b0C or even 4\u00b0C by the end of the century. Global sea levels will rise in ways that would \u201cenhance global temperature variability\u201d, but this might not be as high as earlier studies have predicted. That is because the ice cliffs of Antarctica might not be so much at risk of disastrous collapse that would set the glaciers accelerating to the sea.\nThe latest revision of evidence from the melting ice sheets in two hemispheres \u2013 and there is plenty of evidence that melting is happening at ever greater rates \u2013 is based on two studies of what could happen to the world\u2019s greatest reservoirs of frozen freshwater if nations pursue current policies, fossil fuel combustion continues to increase, and global average temperatures creep up to unprecedented levels.\n\u201cEven if we do include ice-cliff instability \u2026 the most likely contribution to sea level rise would be less than half a metre by 2100\u201d\n\u201cUnder current global government policies, we are heading towards 3 or 4 degrees of warming above pre-industrial levels, causing a significant amount of melt water from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets to enter Earth\u2019s oceans. According to our models, this melt water will cause significant disruptions to ocean currents and change levels of warming around the world,\u201d said Nick Golledge, a south polar researcher at Victoria University, in New Zealand.\nHe and colleagues from Canada, the US, Germany and the UK report in Nature that they matched satellite observations of what is happening to the ice sheets with detailed simulations of the complex effects of melting over time, and according to the human response so far to warnings of climate change.\nIn Paris in 2015, leaders from 195 nations vowed to contain global warming to \u201cwell below\u201d an average rise of 2\u00b0C by 2100. But promises have yet to become concerted and coherent action, and researchers warn that on present policies, a 3\u00b0C rise seems inevitable.\nSea levels have already risen by about 14 cms in the last century: the worst scenarios have proposed a devastating rise of 130 cms by 2100. The fastest increase in the rise of sea levels is likely to happen between 2065 and 2075.\nGulf Stream weakens\nAs warmer melt water gets into the North Atlantic, that major ocean current the Gulf Stream is likely to be weakened. Air temperatures are likely to rise over eastern Canada, central America and the high Arctic. Northwestern Europe \u2013 scientists have been warning of this for years \u2013 will become cooler.\nIn the Antarctic, a lens of warm fresh water will form over the surface, allowing uprising warm ocean water to spread and cause what could be further Antarctic melting.\nBut how bad this could be is re-examined in a second, companion paper in Nature. Tamsin Edwards, now at King\u2019s College London, Dr Golledge and others took a fresh look at an old scare: that the vast cliffs of ice \u2013 some of them 100 metres above sea level \u2013 around the Antarctic could become unstable and collapse, accelerating the retreat of the ice behind them.\nThey used geophysical techniques to analyse dramatic episodes of ice loss that must have happened 3 million years ago and 125,000 years ago, and they went back to the present patterns of melt. These losses, in their calculations, did not cause unstoppable ice loss in the past, and may not affect the future much either.\nInstability less important\n\u201cWe\u2019ve shown that ice-cliff instability doesn\u2019t appear to be an essential mechanism in reproducing past sea level changes and so this suggests \u2018the jury\u2019s still out\u2019 when it comes to including it in future predictions,\u201d said Dr Edwards.\n\u201cEven if we do include ice-cliff instability, our more thorough assessment shows the most likely contribution to sea level rise would be less than half a metre by 2100.\u201d\nAt worst, there is a one in 20 chance that enough of Antarctica\u2019s glacial burden will melt to raise sea levels by 39 cms. More likely, both studies conclude, under high levels of greenhouse gas concentrations, south polar ice will only melt to raise sea levels worldwide by about 15 cms. \u2013 Climate News Network\nAntarctic, Arctic, emissions, Greenland, Ice melt, Rainfall, Sea levels, Weather\nPermafrost thaws as global warming sets in\nGlobal warming is at work far below the surface, at depths seemingly insulated from the greenhouse effect. This is bad news for the permafrost.\nLONDON, 29 January, 2019 \u2013 Even in the coldest places \u2013 10 metres below the surface of the polar wastes \u2013 global warming has begun to work. A new study of the frozen soils in both hemispheres shows that between 2007 and 2016, they warmed by an average of 0.3\u00b0C.\nThis remained true within the Arctic and Antarctic zones, in the highest mountain regions of Europe and Asia, and even in the Siberian tundra, where the temperatures at depth rose by almost a whole degree.\nNew research into the permafrost, defined as territory where soil has been frozen for at least two consecutive years, suggests that much of it may not be permanently frozen for much longer.\nClimate scientists have repeatedly warned that along with the tilth, clays and sediments the icy structures store vast amounts of carbon in the form of yet-to-be-decomposed plant material.\nSo the thawing permafrost could surrender even more warming agents in the form of greenhouse gases, and accelerate global warming even further.\n\u201cThe permafrost isn\u2019t simply warming on a local and regional scale, but worldwide and at virtually the same pace as climate warming\u201d\nResearchers based in Potsdam, Germany report in the journal Nature Communications that they and colleagues in the Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost monitored and measured soil temperatures in boreholes at 154 locations; more than 120 of them over a 10-year cycle. In a dozen locations the temperatures actually fell, and at 40 locations there was virtually no change.\nThe most dramatic warming was in the Arctic, where soils that were more than 90% permafrost increased temperatures by 0.3\u00b0C, and the Siberian north, where temperatures rose by 0.9\u00b0C or more. Air temperatures over those regions had risen by an average of 0.6\u00b0C in the same decade. In those Arctic regions with less than 90% permafrost, the frozen ground had warmed by 0.2\u00b0C.\n\u201cIn these regions there is more and more snowfall, which insulates the permafrost in two ways, following the igloo principle,\u201d said Boris Biskaborn of the Alfred Wegener Institute, at the Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, who led the study.\n\u201cIn winter snow protects the soil from extreme cold, which on average produces a warming effect. In spring it reflects the sunlight, and prevents the soils from being exposed to too much warmth, at least until the snow has completely melted away.\u201d\nThe scientists also report that soil temperature rises were recorded in the Alps of Europe, the mountain ranges of Scandinavia, and in the Himalayas.\nOther scientists have already this year identified potential disaster for many settlements in the Arctic regions: the once-hard-frozen topsoils are in danger of thawing, and since these support industrial buildings, oil and gas pipelines, road surfaces, and even whole towns, the danger of severe damage to infrastructure is growing.\nAnd, the researchers warn, even if the world sticks to its promise, made by 195 nations in Paris in 2015, and contains global warming to no more than 2\u00b0C over pre-industrial levels by 2100, there is still a likelihood that the permafrost will disappear over a large area, to surrender more greenhouse gases, and trigger more warming.\n\u201cAll this data tells us that the permafrost isn\u2019t simply warming on a local and regional scale, but worldwide and at virtually the same pace as climate warming, which is producing a substantial warming of the air and increased snow thickness, especially in the Arctic,\u201d said Guido Grosse, who heads permafrost research in Potsdam. \u201cThese two factors produce a warming of the once permanently frozen ground.\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nAntarctic, Arctic, climate change, Greenhouse Gases, Ice melt, Temperature rise\nPolar ice loss speeds up by leaps and bounds\nJanuary 22nd, 2019, by Tim Radford\nNorth and south, polar ice loss is happening faster than ever. Researchers now have a measure of the accelerating flow into the ocean.\nLONDON, 22 January, 2019 \u2013 In the last few decades the speed of polar ice loss at both ends of the planet has begun to gallop away at rates which will have a marked effect on global sea levels.\nAntarctica is now losing ice mass six times faster than it did 40 years ago. In the decade that began in 1979, the great white continent surrendered 40 billion tons of ice a year to raise global sea levels. By the decade 2009 to 2017, this mass loss had soared to 252 billion tons a year.\nAnd in Greenland, the greatest concentration of terrestrial ice in the northern hemisphere has also accelerated its rate of ice loss fourfold in this century.\nSatellite studies confirm that in 2003, around 102 billion tons of ice turned to flowing water or broke off into the ocean as floating bergs. By 2013, this figure had climbed to 393 billion tons a year.\n\u201cThat\u2019s just the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. As the Antarctic Ice Sheet continues to melt away, we expect multi-metre sea level rise from Antarctica in the coming centuries\u201d\nScientists report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that they studied high resolution aerial photographs, satellite radar readings and historic Landsat imagery to survey 18 south polar regions encompassing 176 basins and surrounding islands of Antarctica to take the most precise measurement of ice loss so far.\nMost of the loss is attributed to the contact with ever-warmer ocean waters as they lap the ice shelves or eat away at grounded glaciers. Since 1979 it has contributed 14mm to global sea level rise. The researchers stress that their reading of the profit-and-loss accounts of polar ice is the longest study so far.\n\u201cThat\u2019s just the tip of the iceberg, so to speak,\u201d said Eric Rignot, of the University of California Irvine. \u201cAs the Antarctic Ice Sheet continues to melt away, we expect multi-metre sea level rise from Antarctica in the coming centuries.\u201d If all the ice on the continent were to melt, it would raise global sea levels by 57 metres.\nFor more than a decade scientists have been concerned with the rate of warming, the acceleration of glacial flow and the loss of shelf ice off West Antarctica. The latest study indicates that East Antarctica, home to a far greater volume of ice, is also losing mass.\nAccelerating glacier movement across Greenland towards the sea has also concerned climate scientists worried about icemelt for years. The island\u2019s bedrock bears a burden of ice sufficient to raise global sea levels by seven metres.\nResearchers who have used data from the GRACE satellites \u2013 the acronym stands for Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment \u2013 since 2002 also report in the same journal that the largest sustained loss of ice on Greenland came from the island\u2019s southwest. They think that within two decades the region could become a major contributor to global sea level rise. But why the loss has accelerated is uncertain.\n\u201cWhichever this was, it couldn\u2019t be explained by glaciers, because there aren\u2019t many there,\u201d said Michael Bevis of Ohio State University. \u201cIt had to be surface mass \u2013 the ice was melting inland from the coastline.\u201d\nPuzzling picture\nOnce again, warming atmosphere and ocean are linked to ice loss in the Arctic region, a change driven by global warming as a consequence of ever-higher ratios of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, fed by ever-higher rates of combustion of fossil fuels.\nMelting rates have been uneven: the unexplained acceleration between 2003 and 2013 was followed by an equally puzzling pause. Natural atmospheric cycles such as the North Atlantic Oscillation must be part of the explanation.\n\u201cThese oscillations have been happening forever. So why only now are they causing this massive melt? It is because the atmosphere is, at its baseline, warmer. The transient warming driven by the North Atlantic Oscillation was riding on top of more sustained global warming,\u201d Professor Bevis said.\n\u201cWe are going to see faster and faster sea level rise for the foreseeable future. Once you hit that tipping point, the only question is: how severe does it get?\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nAntarctic, Arctic, fossil fuels, Global threats, Greenhouse Gases, Greenland, Ice melt, Sea levels\nPermafrost thaw unsettles the Arctic\nJanuary 1st, 2019, by Tim Radford\nPermafrost thaw and retreating Arctic ice don\u2019t just imperil caribou and bears. People, too, may find the ground shifts beneath their feet.\nLONDON, 1 January, 2019 \u2212 In just one human generation, citizens of the far north could find themselves on shifting soils as the region\u2019s permafrost thaws. Roads will slump. Buildings will buckle. Pipelines will become at risk of fracture. And in 2050, around three fourths of the people of the permafrost could watch their infrastructure collapse, as what was once hard frozen ground turns into mud.\nAll this could happen even if the world keeps the promise it made in Paris in 2015 and limits global average warming to just 1.5\u00b0C above the level for most of pre-industrial history.\nIn the last century, the world has already warmed by 1\u00b0C on average: the Arctic region has warmed at a far faster rate. At present rates of warming, driven by the profligate use of fossil fuels that raise the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the world is on course for an average warming of 3\u00b0C by 2100.\nResearchers from Finland, Norway, Russia and the US report in the journal Nature Communications that they mapped, on a scale of a kilometre, the buildings, installations, roads and other infrastructure of the permafrost world: a region defined as that where the ground is frozen solid, summer and winter, for at least two consecutive years.\nMore than 4 million people live in this pan-Arctic landscape: at least 3.6 million of them, and 70% of their transportation and industrial infrastructure, are at risk.\nPresent reality\n\u201cThese observations have led me to believe that global warming is not a \u2018fake\u2019 but the reality. And here, in Alaska, we are dealing already and will be dealing even more in the near future with this reality,\u201d said Vladimir Romanovsky, of the University of Alaska\u2019s geophysical institute, one of the authors.\nClimate scientists and glaciologists have been warning about the rate of change in the Arctic for two decades: one estimate proposed that for every 1\u00b0C of warming, around 4 million square kilometres of permafrost \u2212 an area bigger than India \u2212 could thaw.\nLocked in the frozen soil is an estimated 1,700 billion tonnes of carbon: this is about twice the mass of carbon in the atmosphere in the form of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. Its release could precipitate even more calamitous climate change. And the economic consequences \u2013 assessed at a potential cost of $43 trillion \u2212 could be ruinous.\nThe latest study found that climate change respected no borders: one third of all Arctic infrastructure and 45% of hydrocarbon extraction fields in the Russian Arctic were in high hazard regions: that is, once the soil thawed, the ground became unstable.\nAround 470 kms of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway and 280 kms of the Obskaya-Bovanenkovo Railway, the most northerly in the world, lie across what could be thawing permafrost. The scientists identified more than 1,200 settlements in zones where the permafrost could thaw: around 40 of these had populations of 5,000 or more.\n\u201cThese observations have led me to believe that global warming is not a \u2018fake\u2019 but the reality\u201d\nPipelines, too, were endangered: 1,590 kms of the Eastern Siberia-Pacific Ocean oil pipeline, 1,260 kms of the gas pipelines in the Yamal-Nenets region \u2212 which supplies one-third of European Union imports \u2212 and 550 kms of the Trans-Alaska pipeline systems could be at \u201cconsiderable risk\u201d: that is, they were in areas where near-surface permafrost could thaw by 2050.\nBy then around one million people, 36,000 buildings, 13,000 kms of roads and 100 airports could have become high hazard environments. And with them, permafrost thaw could threaten to affect 45% of oil and gas fields in the Russian Arctic.\nAll forecasts arrive with considerable uncertainties, and the authors concede that they could be wrong. But, they warn, even if they are, their estimates of the infrastructure at risk would probably not be much smaller and could be substantially higher. Around 19 large settlements are in their highest hazard zone \u201cbut the number could be as large as 34,\u201d they warn.\nIf nations acted on the Paris promises, they say, the levels of risk would start to stabilise after 2050. \u201cIn contrast, higher greenhouse gas levels would probably result in continued detrimental climate change impacts on the built environment and economic activity in the Arctic.\u201d \u2212 Climate News Network\nArctic, Carbon Dioxide, Greenhouse Gases, Ice melt\nLondon\u2019s melting ice shows world\u2019s plight\nHow do you raise awareness of climate change? A novel approach in the UK this winter, shipped in from Greenland, is London\u2019s melting ice.\nLONDON, 18 December, 2018 \u2013 They stand on the bank of the river Thames, outside the world-famous Tate Modern art venue \u2013 London\u2019s melting ice, 24 large blocks, some transparent, some opaque, all different shapes, all gently melting in the not so cold air. Another six stands of ice sit in a square in the heart of London\u2019s financial district.\nIce Watch is the idea of Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson and Minik Rosing, a Greenland geologist.\n\u201cThese blocks tell their own story and I suggest you listen to what they have to say\u201d, Eliasson tells London\u2019s Evening Standard newspaper. \u201cTheir melting into the ocean is our world melting.\u201d\nThe blocks on display in London \u2013 weighing a total of more than 100 tonnes \u2013 were collected from the cold waters of Nuup Kangerlua fjord near Nuuk, Greenland\u2019s capital.\nThey had originally been part of Greenland\u2019s ice sheet, which covers about 80% of the island and is the largest ice mass in the northern hemisphere. The blocks were transported to London in containers usually used for exports of frozen fish.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t live in a perennial state of shock. This is what Ice Watch is about\u201d\nGlaciologists say rising air and sea temperatures have caused the pace of melting of the ice sheet to go into overdrive in recent times. There are fears that if the sheet continues to melt at its present rate global sea levels could rise by several metres, flooding coastal cities and large tracts of land.\nVisitors can touch the mini-icebergs in London and put their ears to the cold surfaces to listen to the crackling noises as the ice melts, with minuscule air pockets trapped within the blocks cracking open.\nDirt and other material trapped within the ice are evidence of life and changes in the atmosphere stretching back over thousands of years. \u201cSmell, look \u2013 and witness the ecological changes our world is undergoing\u201d, says Eliasson.\nThe artist says that while the facts about climate change and how great a threat it is to the world\u2019s future are clear, people still need to be encouraged to take action.\n\u201cWe need to communicate the facts of climate change to hearts as well as heads, to emotions as well as minds\u201d, says Eliasson.\nFear is ineffective\n\u201cWhen it comes to people\u2019s choices for or against taking climate action, we are inclined to stick to what we have, here and now, rather than make changes. Inducing fear does not seem an effective strategy.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t live in a perennial state of shock. This is what Ice Watch is about. I am hopeful that we can push for change. To do so, we have to make use of all the tools at hand, including art.\u201d\nMinik Rosing, who has undertaken extensive geological work on the Greenland ice sheet, says the melting of the area\u2019s ice has raised global sea levels by 2.5 millimetres. \u201cEarth is changing at an ever-increasing speed\u201d, he says.\nA similar Ice Watch installation has already been staged in Paris. Eliasson has long been involved in climate-related issues. Fifteen years ago his Weather Project exhibition was displayed at Tate Modern.\nIce Watch will be in place in London till December 20 \u2013 or until the ice melts completely. \u2013 Climate News Network\nArctic, emissions, Greenland, Ice melt, Sea levels, UK\nGreenland\u2019s icecap melt picks up speed\nRecent melting of Greenland\u2019s icecap has been more intense than ever. And all the signs are that it could get worse.\nLONDON, 13 December, 2018 \u2013 Greenland\u2019s icecap \u2013 the largest single store of frozen freshwater in the northern hemisphere \u2013 is melting faster than ever, according to two separate studies using two different approaches.\nSurface meltwater started flowing over the surface and percolating through the ice at a greater rate in the mid-19th century and accelerated dramatically during the 20th and the first decades of the 21st century, according to a new study of ice cores taken more than 2,000 metres above sea level.\nAnd a 25-year record of European Space Agency satellite data confirms the alarming picture: the elevation of the Greenland ice sheet was changing in the mid-1990s, and the pace of thinning stepped up after 2003. Greenland\u2019s bedrock carries enough ice to raise global sea levels by around seven metres.\n\u201cMelting of the Greenland Ice Sheet has gone into overdrive. As a result, Greenland melt is adding to sea level more than at any time in the last three and a half centuries, if not thousands of years,\u201d said Luke Trusel, a glaciologist at Rowan University in the US.\n\u201cAnd increasing melt began around the same time as we started altering the atmosphere in the mid 1800s.\u201d\n\u201cThe melting and sea level rise we\u2019ve observed will already be dwarfed by what may be expected in the future\u201d\nHis co-author Sarah Das of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution said: \u201cFrom a historical perspective, today\u2019s melt rates are off the charts, and this study provides the evidence.\u201d\nSnow falls on the great icecaps of the two hemispheres, freezes, melts a little in the summer and freezes again, so that \u2013 like the rings of a tree \u2013 the accumulated precipitation tells a story of successive years of climate change. The two researchers and their colleagues report in Nature that ice cores taken from the icecap between 2003 and 2015 contained enough information for them to assess annual melting rates over several centuries.\nThey found a clear pattern of more intense melting nearer the present, and over the last 20 years the intensity increased by between 250% and 575%, compared to the 18th century. In the last century the entire planet has warmed by around 1\u00b0C as greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere have risen, in response to ever greater use of fossil fuels.\nThe message for the future is ominous. \u201cRather than increasing steadily as climate warms, Greenland will melt increasingly more and more for every degree of warming,\u201d said Dr Trusel. \u201cThe melting and sea level rise we\u2019ve observed will already be dwarfed by what may be expected in the future as climate continues to warm.\u201d\nGreenland has served for decades as a climate laboratory: change almost imperceptible in lower latitudes can be measured almost on a yearly basis in the high fastnesses of the island, and the Nature study is only the latest twist in a story that is already alarming.\nDangers identified\nScientists long ago took the measure of change on the ice cap, in the glaciers and at the boundary with the Atlantic, and identified the dangers of accelerated warming in the Arctic.\nThey monitored unexpected increases in the flow of the island\u2019s biggest glaciers, monitored the way the island\u2019s bedrock rose in response to an increased loss of ice, and even identified those reaches of ice that had passed the point of no return.\nThe Nature scientists backed up their on-the-ground observations with measurements made by satellites. And in an entirely separate study, European researchers report in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters that, according to their readings too, the elevation of the icecap had begun to change in ways that enabled them to measure ice loss with the decades, and a recent speed-up.\n\u201cA pattern of thinning appears to dominate a large fraction of the ice sheet margins at the beginning of the millennium, with individual outlet glaciers exhibiting large thinning rates,\u201d said Louise Sandberg S\u00f8renson, of the Danish National Space Institute, who led the research.\n\u201cOver the full 25-year period, the general picture shows much larger volume losses are experienced in west, northwest and southeast basins of Greenland, compared to the more steady-state situations in the colder north.\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nArctic, Glaciers, Greenland, Ice melt, Sea levels\nArctic shorebirds face rising predation risk\nRapid warning means rapid change in the north. That\u2019s bad news for the hardy Arctic shorebirds and delicate plants that once found safety there.\nLONDON, 13 November, 2018 \u2013 Vulnerable baby birds are no longer safe in their nests. New research shows that nest predation \u2013 the theft of the eggs of migrant Arctic shorebirds such as plovers and sandpipers in the high latitudes of the northern hemisphere \u2013 has risen threefold in the last 70 years.\nA second study suggests that the very thing that encourages Arctic plant growth \u2013 the rapid warming of the north polar regions \u2013 also means a loss of vital snow cover for the delicate plants in the high mountains that depend on snow for winter insulation. This is bad news for the snow buttercup, mountain sorrel and mossplant.\nBritish, Czech, Russian and |Hungarian researchers report in the journal Science that they compared rates of nest robbery over two timespans, from 1944 to 1999 and from 2000 to 2015, around the world.\nAltogether the study covered 38,191 nests in 237 populations of 111 species in 149 locations. Nest predation in the tropics was always higher \u2013 perhaps because there are more predators \u2013 and tropical bird species tend to counter offspring loss by living longer to generate more.\nBut, the researchers found, nest predation in temperate Europe, Asia and North America had doubled. And in the Arctic, nestling loss by shorebirds had risen threefold.\n\u201cThe future changes in northern species populations may be abrupt, giving rise to ecological surprises that are hard to predict\u201d\nIn fact, certain species have always flown far north to breed because until the Arctic began to warm rapidly, as a consequence of ever higher levels of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the Arctic provided a relatively safe space for ground-nesting birds.\nThe reason for ever greater nest losses? This has yet to be established. But the guess is that as change comes to the plants and animal life of the Arctic, either predator species have changed, or the loss of familiar prey has forced a change of diet on hunters.\nBecause snow cover in the high Arctic has changed the lemming population has crashed, and the carnivores that hunted lemmings may now have turned to birds\u2019 nests.\n\u201cThese findings are alarming. The Earth is a fragile planet with complex ecosystems, thus changes in predator-prey relationships can lead to cascading effects through the food web with detrimental consequences for many organisms thousands of kilometres away,\u201d said Tam\u00e1s Sz\u00e9kely, a biologist at the University of Bath, UK, with research posts at Hungarian and Chinese universities.\n\u201cMigration of shorebirds from the Arctic to the tropics is now one of the largest movements of biomass in the world. But with increased nest predation, the babies are no longer making the journeys with their parents. This could be the last nail in the coffin for critically-endangered species such as the spoon-billed sandpiper.\u201d\nAnd Vojt\u011bch Kubelka, of Charles University in Prague, who led the research, said the Arctic was no longer a safe harbour for breeding birds. \u201cOn the contrary, the Arctic now represents an extensive ecological trap.\u201d\nRapid warming of the north polar regions also means a more rapid invasion of plants from further south and a change in plant response.\nFinnish scientists report in the journal Nature Climate Change that changes in snow cover on the high ground may be an even greater danger to Arctic biodiversity than rising temperatures.\nSnow cover crucial\nThey looked at satellite data and computer-based models of probable change as humans burn ever more fossil fuels to drive global warming and climate change, and applied the results to 273 flowering plants, mosses and lichens at 1200 locations in the mountains of northern Scandinavia.\nSnow that now lingers until late spring provides vital protection for fragile growths and prevents hardier southern species from colonising the same habitat. In brief, it limits the competition.\nThe great unknown remains snowfall: while climate scientists can be sure of likely future temperatures at any latitude, it is much harder to predict changes in precipitation. But if the snow cover is reduced, then local extinction rates could accelerate. Plants that once maintained a precarious hold in extreme conditions could vanish with the snows.\n\u201cOur findings show that the future changes in northern species populations may be abrupt, giving rise to ecological surprises that are hard to predict, such as fast eradications of populations in some places and the invasion of flexible species into new places\u201d, said Risto Heikkinen from the Finnish Environment Institute. \u2013 Climate News Network\nArctic, Biodiversity, Carbon Dioxide, climate change, fossil fuels, Temperature rise\nEmissions, General, Polar\nHigh Arctic plant spurts raise climate concerns\nPlants are getting taller in the Arctic high latitudes as warmer, moister soil prompts growth that could increase the release of greenhouse gases.\nLONDON, 11 October, 2018 \u2013 The Arctic is becoming greener, warmer and leafier as small plants that once hugged the ground to trap snow and insulate their roots in the permafrost have started to gain in stature.\nIn the high latitudes, plants have begun to respond to climate change and warmer, moister soils by reaching for the sky.\nIt is estimated that, by 2100, the northernmost vegetation could have grown by up to 60% taller.\nEuropean scientists, backed by an international team of more than 120 biologists, report in Nature journal that tundra plants are gaining in height, and that species from further south are advancing towards the Arctic Circle.\nClose survey of growth\nTheir conclusion is based on more than 56,000 observations of tundra vegetation and a close survey of growth at 117 sites around the high latitudes in Alaska, Canada, Iceland, Scandinavia and Siberia.\n\u201cThe increase in height we saw was not just in a few sites but nearly everywhere,\u201d says Dr Anne Bjorkman, a researcher at Germany\u2019s Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre. \u201cIf taller plants continue to spread at the current rate, the plant community height could increase by 20% to 60% by the end of the century.\u201d\n\u201cPrecipitation is likely to increase in the Arctic region, but that is just one factor that\naffects soil moisture levels\u201d\nHer research colleague, Isla Myers-Smith, of the University of Edinburgh\u2019s School of Geosciences, says: \u201cWhile most climate change models have focused on increasing temperatures, our research has shown that soil moisture can play a much greater role in changing plant traits than we previously thought.\n\u201cWe need to understand more about soil moisture in the Arctic. Precipitation is likely to increase in the Arctic region, but that is just one factor that affects soil moisture levels.\u201d\nThe Arctic is one of the fastest-warming places on Earth. Sea ice has been in dramatic retreat and other research teams have repeatedly observed dramatic changes in the plants and animals that cling to life in the hemisphere\u2019s harshest climate.\nGround reflectivity\nWhat happens to tundra vegetation matters as a vast community of birds, insects and mammals survives on the annual growth in the brief northern summer.\nPlants both respond to climate change and play a part in that change. They affect the reflectivity of the ground surface, and warm the soil in ways that could release ever more greenhouse gases.\nHalf of the planet\u2019s stored carbon could be trapped in the permafrost, and any escapes could only accelerate global warming.\n\u201cThis is the first time that a biome-scale study has been carried out to get to the root of the critical role that plants play in this rapidly-warming part of the planet,\u201d Dr Myers-Smith says.\nAnd Dr Bjorkman warns: \u201cShorter plants trap more snow, which insulates the underlying soil and prevents it from freezing as quickly in winter. An increase in taller plants could speed up the thawing of this frozen carbon bank, and lead to an increase in the release of greenhouse gases.\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nArctic, climate change, emissions, Greenhouse Gases, Warming\nUnderwater walls might avert sea level rise\nCould a vast underwater wall in front of an unstable glacier prevent dangerous sea level rise? Or should everyone just move further inland?\nLONDON, 10 October, 2018 \u2013 Two climate scientists believe they have a long-term solution to dangerous sea level rise by targeting the most vulnerable glaciers, especially those that could trigger a massive collapse of the ice sheets behind them.\nA submarine wall big enough and wide enough could halt the flow of increasingly warm ocean water below the front of each glacier. The combination of warmer air temperatures and warmer waters that accompany human-triggered climate change is dangerous: it could for instance accelerate the already alarming retreat of the Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica, which alone shores up enough ice to raise global sea levels by up to 3 metres.\nThe scientists don\u2019t propose an immediate start. But they do want to explore ways of halting sea level rise driven by global warming that could soon be costing the world $50 trillion a year in economic losses, that could submerge small island states and turn 1 million people a year into climate migrants.\n\u201cWe are not advocating that glacial geoengineering be attempted any time soon\u201d, they warn in the journal The Cryosphere.\nTheir simplest option \u2013 a series of pillars to shore up a targeted glacier and keep it \u201cgrounded\u201d \u2013 would require engineering comparable in scale to the excavation of the Suez canal, would be undertaken in the world\u2019s harshest environment, and would have just a one in three chance of success.\n\u201cIn the long run we need plans to deal with the committed climate changes that are already in the pipeline, one of which may be an ice sheet collapse\u201d\nThe researchers \u2013 John Moore, of Beijing Normal University in China, who also holds a post at the University of Lapland in Finland, and Michael Wolovick, of Princeton University in the US \u2013 have made this case before: they and others argued in March in Nature for what they call \u201cmanaged collapse.\u201d\nIn the latest study, they look at the challenge in greater detail. And they warn that even if targeted geoengineering of individual glaciers worked, it would only do so if humans stopped tipping ever more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere to fuel yet more global warming.\nNor do they argue that a submarine curtain wall to halt warming water across the front of the Thwaites glacier \u2013 up to 100 kms wide \u2013 is currently feasible. \u201cBut in the long run we need plans to deal with the committed climate changes that are already in the pipeline, one of which may be an ice sheet collapse.\u201d\nAnd one of these is the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica: another is the Jakobshaven Isbrae in Greenland. Both could be cases of what the scientists call marine ice sheet instability: as a glacier retreats from its grounding line, the ice lifts off the bedrock and begins to float.\nIf the bedrock slopes down towards the centre of the ice sheet, and warmer ocean currents wash beneath it, then the ice starts to stretch and thin, and retreat further. At some point, it would become much easier for thawing ice to flow into the sea, and start what could become a runaway collapse. Engineers could devise a way of slowing or halting the process.\nThe scientists argue that even a rise of 0.6m to 1.2 metres by 2100 could cause up to $50 trillion in economic damage, and the resultant flooding could force up to 200 million to 500 million people out of their homes at least for a few days or weeks: around a million or so every year would never go back.\nClimate scientists have been arguing about geoengineering solutions \u2013 the so-called technofix \u2013 to climate change for more than a decade. Global answers, such as blocking sunlight with stratospheric soot and sulphate aerosols, or whitening the polar ice to make it more reflective, remain contentious.\nBut the Cryosphere proposals are much more limited, and the immediate dangers of sea level rise are not contested. Ice sheet collapse in Antarctica, for instance, could raise sea levels by more than 3 metres and even by as much as 19 metres over the next two or three centuries.\nThe researchers\u2019 calculations suggest that in theory an engineering solution that blocked even 50% of the warm water getting under a glacier could offer a 70% chance of delaying or stopping ice sheet collapse.\nCountries already spend on coastal protection: their solution would require international co-operation at the highest political level, and intensive scientific research.\n\u201cManaging sea level rise at the source has the advantage of benefiting the entire world, while a strategy that relies only on local coastal protection is more of an every-nation-for-itself approach that may leave many poor countries behind,\u201d they write.\n\u201cPerhaps, after careful consideration, we may conclude that glacial geoengineering is unworkable and the right answer is to invest heavily in coastal protection and retreat inland where that is not practical or economical.\n\u201cHowever, we owe it to the 400 million people who live within 5m of sea level to at least consider the alternatives.\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nAntarctic, Arctic, Geo-engineering, Glaciers, Greenland, Ice melt, Oceans, Sea levels\nOnce trapped in a Russian ice cap north of Siberia, the frozen Arctic is moving fast, racing in decades from metres to kilometres a year.\nLONDON, 5 October, 2018 \u2013 Satellite images have revealed a dramatic change in Russia\u2019s frozen Arctic. An ice cap that once crept almost imperceptibly across the barren rocks of October Revolution island, in the Kara Sea, is on the move.\nAll ice, even when permanently frozen to the bedrock, moves. From 1952 to 1985, the western edge of the Vavilov ice cap, 1,820 square kilometres in area and between 300 metres and 600 metres in thickness, shifted at about 12 metres a year. Between 1998 and 2011, it stepped up the pace to 75 metres a year. Between 2014 and 2015, the ice front had broken into tongues that moved at more than 1,000 metres a year.\nAnd between 2015 and 2016 the leading edge had started racing into the Kara Sea at 5,000 metres a year. It is also thinning at the rate of a third of a metre a day, according to a new study in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters.\nThe high Arctic is the fastest-warming place on Earth, and researchers have for more than 30 years been measuring changes in the rate at which sea ice shrinks and Greenland glaciers flow.\nRole as metaphor\n\u201cIn a warming climate, glacier acceleration is becoming more and more common, but the rate of ice loss at Vavilov is extreme and unexpected,\u201d said Michael Willis, a geologist at the University of California Boulder, who led the study by scientists from the US, UK and Russia.\nGlaciers and icecaps such as Vavilov cover about 450,000 square kilometres of the planet\u2019s surface and hold enough frozen water to raise global sea levels by 30 cms. They form on land in polar \u201cdeserts\u201d in which the temperatures are below freezing and snow falls at no more than 25 cms a year.\nIn the Arctic summer the snow cover melts, and water trickles down through the ice; over the years, snowfall patterns shift and the ice cap shifts under gravitational tug. All glaciers flow, but so slowly that their pace has been incorporated into metaphor.\nFor the study authors, who used decades of satellite studies of the high Arctic to measure the change, the puzzle is one of geophysics: how could a fast-frozen mass of ice get to the stage where it can slide, as if lubricated, across a rocky surface above sea level?\n\u201cGlacier acceleration is becoming more and more common, but the rate of ice loss at Vavilov is extreme and unexpected\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019ve never seen anything like this before, this study has raised as many questions as it has answered,\u201d said Dr Willis. \u201cAnd we\u2019re now working on modelling the whole situation to get a better handle on the physics involved.\u201d\nBut for climate scientists concerned with the bigger picture, the study is another instance of potentially catastrophic climate change in the making. Once an ice cap starts to flow, the process is unlikely to stop.\nAnd a second study in the same week from the other end of the globe shows that it doesn\u2019t take much to start the ice flowing into the sea. It has confirmed that average global warming of no more than 2\u00b0C above historic levels, given long enough, could melt much of the world\u2019s largest ice sheet.\nPlanetary average temperatures have already risen by 1\u00b0C since the first industrial exploitation of coal, gas and oil only 200 years ago, and right now, although 195 nations vowed in Paris in 2015 to keep the rise to \u201cwell below\u201d 2\u00b0C by 2100, the world seems headed for at least a 3\u00b0C rise later this century.\nFuture loss inevitable\nBritish, Australian, New Zealand, Spanish and Japanese scientists report in Nature that they reconstructed the impact of change on the East Antarctic ice sheet during interglacials, those warm pauses during the last Ice Age.\nFor about 2,500 years, Antarctic air temperatures rose by about 2\u00b0C, the huge fastness of ice began to melt, and sea levels rose. The West Antarctic ice sheet, which has repeatedly shown signs of thawing, holds enough water to raise sea levels by up to 5 metres. The apparently stable East Antarctic sheet holds enough to lift global sea levels by 53 metres. During the interglacials of 400,000 years ago and 125,000 years ago, sea levels rose between 6 metres and 13 metres higher than they are today.\n\u201cWhat we have learned is that even modest warming of just two degrees, if sustained for a couple of thousand years, is enough to cause the East Antarctic ice sheet to retreat in some of its low-lying areas,\u201d said David Wilson, of the UK\u2019s Imperial College, who led the research.\n\u201cWith current global temperatures already one degree higher than during pre-industrial times, future ice loss seems inevitable if we fail to reduce carbon emissions.\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nAntarctic, Arctic, Glaciers, Ice melt, Sea levels",

Repeal of these taxes would be fiscally unwise, would reduce the overall fairness and progressivity of the tax system, and would harm charitable giving. The President would veto this legislation repealing the estate and gift taxes if it were presented to him.\nThe Administration believes that such a tax reduction would harm the important priorities of maintaining fiscal discipline, paying down the national debt, extending the solvency of Medicare and Social Security, and maintaining core government functions such as education and fighting crime. It is dangerously backloaded. This legislation would cost close to $50 billion when fully phased in 2011, and would cost more than $750 billion between 2011 and 2020 as the baby boom generation starts to retire. Resources devoted to the repeal of the estate tax would not be available to pay down the debt or fortify Social Security and Medicare.\nThe Administration supports efforts to appropriately target estate tax relief, particularly for small business, family farms, and principal residences. However, full repeal of the estate tax would undermine fairness in the tax system. Only the wealthiest two percent of estates pay any tax, and nearly half of estate tax revenue comes from the top 1 in 1,000 estates. In addition, recent studies suggest that repeal of the estate tax could reduce charitable gifts and bequests by close to $6 billion annually.\nThe Administration worked with the Congress in 1997 to lift the burden of the estate tax on the vast majority of small businesses and family farms. The Administration would be pleased to work with the Congress to continue to help relieve the estate tax burden on small businesses, family farms, and principal residences, and to make the estate tax simpler and fairer in a fiscally responsible way. The Administration understands that a Democratic alternative will be offered to advance these goals. The Administration would support these proposals as part of a balanced framework that pays down debt, strengthens Social Security and Medicare, provides tax relief to middle-income families, and funds critical initiatives.\nH.R. 8 would affect receipts; therefore, it is subject to the pay-as-you-go requirements of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. The magnitude of the proposed tax cut ($2.5 billion in FY 2001, according to the Treasury Department) and the absence of any offsets could cause a significant sequester of Federal resources.",

        "raw_content": "The Layers of the Enterprise\nCoherency Management is build upon the idea that the system based on the idea that there are several layers in an organization. Layers that can vary from one another and that has to be aligned to make the organization to gain more (or simply work smarter).\nZachman (2005) has traditionally made use of his framework for changing these layers and he among others have established the platform for Enterprise Architecture; However the problem with the Zachman framework is that it can be identified as a method within the functionalist paradigm.\nThe functionalist paradigm (Burrell & Morgan, 1979) is known for its un-nuanced view on how people and systsems interact and can therefore by a threat (or a source of explanation) for why many IT related and organization related projects fail.\nDoucet et al (2009) uses a view on the layers of the process which is based on Zachman\u2019s framework which indicates a functionalist view of the organization. However it is notable that every organization has an architecture (the EA point of view) which indicates that there are several layers which the Coherency Architect has to work with to be able to propose coherent plans.\nThe first layer is the technical architecture. The technical layer consists of the servers, the computers and the network infrastructure that enables the applications to perform their tasks.\nThe second layer is the application architecture and is build upon the technical architecture. This layer deals with the applications (software) the organization make use of to provide the various business processes with the useable software. It is also the application that supports the transformation of data into information.\nThe third layer is the information architecture and is build upon the application architecture. The information architecture deals with how the data is archived, handled and maintained in the enterprise. This means that the layer contains the nerve of the enterprise. If the enterprise is not able to handle the information within it then it is likely the organization will go out of business. Information is gold in the time of the information economy.\nThe fourth layer is the business process architecture and is build upon the information architecture. The business processes can only be executed if the members of the organization who work with the particular processes are able to understand how the system work.\nThe fifth layer is the business architecture and is build on top of business process architecture.\nThe Business Architecture consist mainly of how the organization is designed e.g., the organization chart, the description of responsibilities and thereby who are accountable for what processes and what outcome of the various systems. It is obvious that this layer is depending on the layers beneath it like a pyramid.\nAnalysis Part\nHow can the Coherency Architect make use of the layers to implement coherency in the organization? The Coherency Architect has to view the organization as a system which in a way is fragmented and in another way can work independent of the each other. To make the an organization coherent in its decision making then the Coherency Architect has to uncover the various layers to identify potential elements that creates bottlenecks or other negative influence on the total architecture of the system works. The organization can of not be autonomous of its surroundings and therefore should impacts from the market, customers, technologies developed and supplied by suppliers be analyzed.\nAny bottlenecks that have been identified have to be analyzed and a solution including a plan for implementation should be articulated and put into \u201cthe pipeline\u201d (the pipeline is innovation related and will be handled in a future blog post).\nWhen the organization is changing then the layers of the organization will be changing to and that will lead a need for a new analysis of the architecture of the organization.\nIt is therefore not a single project to implement Coherency Management. It should be understood as a continuous program to identify and develop the the Business Architecture and the underlying architectures.\nThe first obstacle the Coherency Architect will face when he or she will start the work on identifying the current layers and the general architecture of the organization will be that the documentation the organization has developed for themselves is outdated and the Coherency Architect has to go through all the four layers to create his or her own view on how the organization architecture is.\nThe Coherency Architect should therefore be prepared to invest a lot of the time of the first Coherency Project on investigating the layers and the general architecture of the organization and then keep updating his or her view on the situation during the entire project period.\n* Gibson Burrell and Gareth Morgan, \u201cSociological Paradigms and\nOrganisational Analysis \u2013 Elements of the Sociology of Corporate Life,\u201d in (Heineman, 1979).\nPrevious The Architectures\nNext The Coherency Architect",

The whole world is becoming more global, and competition is happening literally on all fronts: personnel, information, ideas, technologies, market outlets, resources, finance, etc. The international scandal about possible interference of the Russian Federation in the US presidential elections alone is enough. Another resonant example is closer to the Ukrainian reality: the Petya-virus cyber attack in June, as a result of which, according to experts, the Ukrainian state and business alone suffered losses of several billion hryvnias. Unfortunately, many Ukrainian entrepreneurs are still far from understanding that the proper building of the corporate security must occur simultaneously with the launch of the business itself. We are going to consider some example of real-life cases to see the possible negative consequences for the business if we do not build effective corporate security. For example, a disloyal employee works of Company Y (or he has been recruited by competitors, law enforcement agencies, security services of foreign states, etc.) and steals a .pst file with the email from the Company. Then he uses not that complicated technical counterfeiting and manipulations to make a lot of changes to the metadata of the stolen .pst file and correspondence of the Company\u2019s employees. We all remember the famous phrase with a comma, \u201cExecute not, pardon\u201d or \u201cExecute, not pardon,\u201d the difference in the meaning being huge because of only one comma. After all, an email, in fact, can contain commercial information, confidential information, a personal one, and even a discreditable info, and if you just \u201cdecorate\u201d it all with a couple of hundred fake letters, compromising the company and its employees, you can easily begin to blackmail it or simply cause the company significant damage right away by sending such a falsified file to the right addressee (a competitor, the relevant authorities, media, etc.). The damage can be of various nature, but in the end, it usually leads to very serious financial losses for the business. Let\u2019s take one more case of practice. A company does not sign an agreement with its key employee (a manager of a department), in which he undertakes not to compete with his company for some time (at least for twelve months) after being fired, not to hire its employees, not to work with its clients, etc., and in case of violation of these obligations, he will bear significant material liability to the company. What are the possible consequences of not signing such a non-competing agreement? The employee leaves, and a few months later, it turns out that he has already registered his own company to which he transferred contracts with the clients he followed up while working for the company, but these were the clients of the company he worked for (its assets); another month later, he lures the employees of the company he has worked for that he wants to lure (the company\u2019s assets as well) and in this way, he can lead a whole line of business away with him, which has still brought profits to the owners. Here is another example of how easy it is to harm a respectable businessman if there is no corporate security. A counterparty is designated for a decent and law-abiding businessman with a goal to deceive him into parting with his money or even take away his business; it looks like a normal company by common signs, but in fact, it is a company operating or having business connections with the DNR or LNR companies. Thus, having failed to properly check its counterparty, a normal businessman and his top management can become accessories to terrorism with the expected results for their business. And that\u2019s just in some words. We can provide plenty of examples of large and system companies failing to properly build the corporate security system which has resulted in losses of varying degrees of seriousness, and not just among domestic companies, but among the biggest and well-known companies in the world as well. Now, a scandal is unfolding about the illegal transfer by the Facebook Company of personal data of 50 million of its users to third parties. According to the estimates of financial experts, this has already resulted in a loss in the value of Facebook shares and a drop in its value by tens of billions of dollars. We can only guess what the final consequences of this scandal for Facebook can be. Of course, we understand that companies like Facebook certainly have the highest-level corporate security system, but at the same time, there are reports in the media that their Corporate Security Director has not been dismissed but rather sent in his resignation because the Company had ignored his recommendations and instructions, resulting in such effects. Therefore, it is equally important not only to build a corporate security system but also to follow it. Some may argue that corporate security is expensive, and your financial capabilities are limited. To which I will respond with a citation of a famous Indian thinker and the Integral Yoga teaching originator Sri Aurobindo, \u201cIf a great goal is before you, and your capabilities are limited, act anyway, for it is only through actions that your capabilities can increase.\u201d If I convinced you to consider building a competent corporate security system in your company, let\u2019s figure out where to start. First, you need to define a security object. The security objects can be: Finance Staff The reputation of the owners, top management, and the company itself Assets Technologies and business processes When building corporate security, it is equally important to understand the types of threats that exist. These can be roughly split into four main types: Permanent Temporary External Internal So, if we have decided what we have to protect and from which threats, our next step is to determine who will build our company corporate security system. The first option is providing the security by the company\u2019s management or a safety committee, or security council started by the company itself. The second option is building the security by an external organization (security outsourcing). The third option is a mixture of the two above options. Every entrepreneur must decide for himself which security option he finds the most correct and providing the necessary result based on a number of factors, such as security facilities, his internal human capacity, financial possibilities, the scale of corporate security, etc. In my opinion, quite reasonable option for business is a mixed one, when part of the security issues are dealt with inside the company, and the other part is entrusted to an outsourcing company. It seems logical to outsource the following tasks: The establishment of cyber and IT security systems Conducting an audit of corporate security or its separate directions Independent consulting on corporate security Legal protection of business (involvement of lawyers and legal organizations) Creation of the regulatory framework of the company that regulates its security The interaction with state and law enforcement bodies coordinated with the head of the safety committee on issues affecting the company\u2019s security It is recommended that the internal safety committee be entrusted with the following issues: The interaction with state and law enforcement bodies coordinated with an outsourcing company on issues affecting the company\u2019s security Organization of works on creation of corporate security Monitoring of the implementation of the company\u2019s regulatory framework governing its security Coordination of the company\u2019s staff and divisions\u2019 actions on providing security Interaction with outsourcing organizations that provide corporate security services Organizing protection of confidential information Current maintenance of technical means of safety and security Research and information work to ensure the company\u2019s safety Analyzing the financial activities of the company in order to prevent and spot unlawful actions that are detrimental to the company\u2019s interests (theft, kickbacks, fraud, baksheesh, etc.); Conducting activities aimed at ensuring the company\u2019s personnel security Conducting internal audits on the facts of committing unlawful acts by the company\u2019s personnel Consulting and providing recommendations to the company\u2019s management and personnel on security issues And if you are still asking yourself the question \u201cIs it worth spending resources on corporate security?\u201d my answer is unambiguous, \u201cIT DEFINITELY IS.\u201d An American diplomat and writer James Russell Lowell said more than a hundred years ago, \u201cNot failure, but low aim, is crime.\u201d",

        "title": "Why Jumps Get Inconsistent in Figure Skating | Q&A with Coach Rebecca",
        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s Topic: Why Jumps Get Inconsistent in Figure Skating\nHi everyone! Welcome to Q&A with coach Rebecca. I am Rebecca Smith, founder and director of Complete Performance Coaching. I have decided to talk to figure skaters today. Now, if you\u2019re not a figure skater, don\u2019t worry. I\u2019m going to be talking about inconsistency and what causes it, specifically about that pesky double axel.\nI have a couple of questions from members of the Perform Happy community that I will address today. If anyone has questions on live, I\u2019m live on Facebook Tuesdays at 4:30 on the Complete Performance Coaching page. Feel free to chime in and let me know if you have questions that we can get to live. Let\u2019s dig in.\nHere\u2019s the question that came through from one of the members. She says,\nQ: My daughter\u2019s struggling with staying consistent with her double axel, a jump she\u2019s had consistent for two years now. Last Wednesday that jump was amazing, and she was banging them out like nothing, and now it\u2019s been an entire week and she hasn\u2019t landed a single one. Any immediate words of wisdom I can offer her? I\u2019d love for her to remain confident and not get discouraged, especially heading into this Friday\u2019s competition.\nFirst off, I\u2019ll say right before competition, less is usually more.\nThis is not a time that you want to be sneaking in new techniques or new strategies. If you have a competition on Friday, you\u2019re better off not throwing a whole lot of extra stuff into the mix, because a lot of the time, this inconsistency is caused by overthinking.\nGiving her more to think about is probably not going to be super helpful. What I would say is the best thing you can do is talk her through the reality of the situation. Instead of trying to get her to relax or be confident, just say, \u201cHey, if you don\u2019t land it in competition, how are you going to deal with that?\u201d\nReassurance is Important\nLet her know that you\u2019re going to love her no matter what, because she\u2019s going to go out there and try her best. Even if she wipes out, she\u2019s going to get up, shake it off, finish her program strong, and learn something from it.\nNo matter what happens at competition, it\u2019s a learning experience. She\u2019s learning things to make her more confident in the future. If looking back she can find some clues as to why it happened, that would be very helpful. Today is Tuesday, she\u2019s got three days.\nTalk her through it. Let her know that if this is just an off week, and it doesn\u2019t happen, you\u2019re going to go to ice cream, you\u2019re going to celebrate, and you\u2019re going to be so proud of her.\nTell her not to worry about it. Her coaches might be a little miffed, but they will get over it. By Wednesday of next week, it will already have faded into the past. Most people will have completely forgotten about it.\nTalk her through the worst case scenario. Often times that can take enough pressure off that she won\u2019t feel like she has to be perfect, which is probably what\u2019s causing the problem. That\u2019s the immediate answer.\nThe next step is how to get things happening consistently. Here\u2019s another question I wanted to address that came through from another figure skating mom.\nQ: My daughter has had a lot of success competitively, has tremendous potential, but is struggling with a mental block on a particular jump, the double axel. She\u2019s physically able to do the jump, but mental blocks prevent her from taking off a high percentage of the time, so she\u2019s struggling to be consistent.\nWe\u2019ve got one struggling on the landing, and one struggling with takeoff. I\u2019ve heard a lot of skaters who start popping their jumps for various reasons. Both of these issues come from the same problem. What\u2019s happening here that\u2019s causing this well-learned skill from a high-level skater is that they\u2019re starting to get physically tense in a way that they weren\u2019t before.\nOverthinking it All\nThey were skating free; they were doing it basically just under the conscious radar. They don\u2019t have to think about it, they just think double axel, and off goes the double axel. Then they land it and they go about their business. They don\u2019t have to think, and once you\u2019ve gotten to that high level in any sport, you don\u2019t actually want to be thinking, because those thoughts take too long.\nYou only have a couple of seconds before the skill is over. You don\u2019t have time to think things like, Oh, pull in, don\u2019t do that, you don\u2019t have time to be thinking that. That\u2019s all stuff you drill beforehand. Then you just go. When it stops working, that\u2019s when these high-level athletes wonder why?\nThey start to overthink and tense up. They don\u2019t trust themselves, they start to doubt themselves, and they have a hard time relaxing until they can make it again. What\u2019s going on that creates that tension is that the brain is detecting a threat \u2013 a threat to safety.\nNow, this could be physical safety, like a fear of falling, or it could be emotional safety, like fear of disappointing people, fear of being upset, fear of frustration, fear of other people watching them when they make a mistake. That\u2019s a huge one. I would say the majority of my clients I\u2019ve worked with around \u201cpopping\u201d specifically, they\u2019re worried about other people watching them, what they\u2019re thinking, or who they\u2019re going to let down if they make a mistake.\nThis is so ironic, because then they make a lot more mistakes because they\u2019re so worried about making mistakes in front of people. Or it might be any kind of threat and the brain goes, Oh, this is dangerous. I\u2019m going to let somebody down in a big way, or I\u2019m going to get hurt, or there\u2019s too much unknown. Some kind of threat just pops up.\nYou\u2019re Worried About Everyone Else\nThe main causes for those are these fears of what people are thinking, even though you can\u2019t read minds. I can\u2019t. I like to think I can, and this was pointed out to me years ago that I was always saying, \u201cShe thinks this, and she\u2019s worried about that, and they think I this and they think I \u2026\u201d\nYou know what, here\u2019s a secret. People don\u2019t care that much. People don\u2019t actually pay that much attention to you. They don\u2019t actually care what you\u2019re doing because they\u2019re all wrapped up in their own selves, just like we are. If I\u2019m thinking, Oh my gosh, what does she think? She\u2019s probably thinking about herself like I\u2019m thinking about myself.\nFor any of you who are 12, 13, 14 out there, you probably feel like everybody\u2019s thinking about you, everybody\u2019s talking about you all day, every day. The good news is they are not, and they are just as worried about how they\u2019re looking and seeming. If you can let that go, or even better, get to the point of ultimate confidence, which is not just I feel like I can do it, it\u2019s I don\u2019t care what they think. I am myself, I\u2019m good enough, let\u2019s go. If I wipe out, I will get up.\nIf I land it, that will be awesome. If they don\u2019t like me, that is their loss. That\u2019s the point where, if you can get to that, then it no longer becomes an issue and you can be free.\nYou\u2019re Worried About Disappointing Everyone\nAnother main cause of that tension is that fear of disappointing other people. This is another one to get real on. Will your parents be disappointed in you if you make a mistake? If so, chat with your parents, because that\u2019s not the point. Perfection is not the point. I know I\u2019m talking to an audience primarily of Type A perfectionist athletes, gymnasts, swimmers, figure skaters.\nThese are people who, for them, mistakes are not an option. You go out and you want to be perfect. Guess what? We are all human and we\u2019re not perfect. I hate that just as much as the next person. I wish I could be perfect. I wish I could take every course and have every class and do every workshop until I get perfect, but guess what? It\u2019s not possible. The more that I can navigate that fact gracefully, and let it go when I make a mistake, the happier I will be.\nTrue Champions Make Mistakes\nFor those of you who are competitors, same deal. Everybody makes mistakes, and the true champions are the ones who keep getting up, and keep getting up, and keep getting up.\nThen there\u2019s the fear of injury. If that\u2019s real for you, then do what you\u2019ve got to do, even if you feel ridiculous. Crash pads and helmets \u2013 I know those are not things that everybody likes to wear because there\u2019s stigma, but if what\u2019s preventing you from having a strong takeoff is the fear of falling, do what you need to do to make sure that that risk is mitigated, that risk is taken down, and your brain can relax a little bit and let your body relax enough to do what it knows how to do.\nIf you\u2019re saying, \u201cUm, I\u2019ve been doing this for two years, I\u2019m not going to put a helmet on,\u201d give it a shot. Maybe don\u2019t do it in the heat of the session where everybody is there that you compete against, but consider it. If the fear of injury is real, maybe you\u2019ve been falling on that same hip and it keeps hurting, you\u2019re just sick of feeling that pain, then do what you have to do to take it down a notch and see if that can help.\nWhen You Have High Expectations\nWhen going into competition, if you expect perfection, then you start to melt down in the week or month before. Again, you focus your energy into practice, putting in the best you can. Then, at competition, you just show up and do what\u2019s in there, do what\u2019s been automatically installed in your body and then be ready to let it go if there\u2019s mistakes.\nNegative thinking is a huge one, especially after Wednesday. She\u2019s knocking it out, she\u2019s doing great, and then Thursday, Wait, where\u2019s my landing? What\u2019s going on here? Well, think about the thinking. Ask yourself, \u201cWhat happened? Am I going to be able to make it this weekend? What if I don\u2019t?\u201d\nYou go into that \u201cwhat if\u201d thinking as soon as that mistake happens, which then builds, and then the next day you\u2019re wondering if you\u2019re going to make it, and what happens if you don\u2019t? That\u2019s the type of thinking you want to become really aware of, is what is it that happens in my mind when this starts to go south. That\u2019s the first thing that I want to tell you.\nHow to Create More Consistency in Your Elements in 5 Steps\n1. Get Aware\nFirst, you have to figure out what causes your jumps to get inconsistent. What are the things that get the downward spiral started?\nWhat was she doing on Wednesday that was allowing her to thrive? Then, what was she focusing on, who was she training with, what was going on in the environment, what was school like, what was happening Wednesday that was working?\nNext, what was going on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, that was not allowing her to thrive? What was she thinking about? What was she paying attention to or focused on? What was she worried about? What was going on in school, with friends? Dig in and figure out what the clues are regarding what\u2019s not working?\nThere\u2019s obviously something that\u2019s not working. Although it might feel like it randomly just stopped working, I promise you, it\u2019s not random. It\u2019s never random. You can always track it back and find the clues, and that\u2019s where you find the power to overcome.\nYou\u2019ll realize as soon as you started focusing on one particular thing, that\u2019s when things went south. Maybe you got negative, you became tense, and then you were worried. Maybe you were bummed about a social interaction, you weren\u2019t sleeping, etc.\nWhat was the extra stress? Was there a weird fall, was there a break in concentration? Figure out what gets it started, get your awareness up. That\u2019s the first part.\nNumber two \u2013 have a plan. If you make a mistake, what will you do?\nIf you fall in practice again, how will you reset? Have a bounce-back routine.\nWhat\u2019s the worst that can happen? How will you cope? If you\u2019ve got all of those things organized, then if you fall, it\u2019s just time to do your bounce-back routine (not time to freak out).\nReset and try again. If your brain is expecting the worst, like if you fail then things will be worse than ever\u2026 it creates all this tension\u2013which makes you skate badly!\nWhereas if you just look at reality: if you make a mistake, you\u2019ll respond in a predetermined way, and then everyone will get over it.\nThat doesn\u2019t seem so terrifying, right?\nI actually like to have people write out bullet points. Basically, teach me a double axel. Write out the following: Skate backwards on your right foot. Glide backwards, step forward onto your left foot, kick through, air position, landing, etc. You write out all the little steps, and then go back through and look at it to find the weakest link.\nWhat\u2019s the point where your confidence is not high? Is your head in the wrong place? Is it your rotation? What is it that\u2019s missing? Then you might need your coach to get some input on this \u2013 what\u2019s the place where it looks like you\u2019re losing confidence? Where can your coach tell if you\u2019re going to go for it or not? If you\u2019re going to land it or not?\nBreak it down, then figure out what is going to be that one focus you\u2019re going to have. You\u2019re going to zero in on the solution of making that skill better. That one correction.\nYou\u2019re not in the future, you\u2019re not in the \u201cwhat if I fall\u201d or \u201cwhat if I don\u2019t take off?\u201d You\u2019re not in the surrounding area of \u201cwho\u2019s watching me and what are they thinking.\u201d\nYou\u2019re just in that edge or that position, or that kick. You are just doing that one thing and you focus all of your attention on that one moment and that one correction.\nThat way you\u2019re not overthinking, you\u2019re just doing one thing.\nThen you get that correction sorted out, and you pick the next one. If there are a couple of kinks that didn\u2019t get worked out, you just take them one at a time. Focus in, stay present, stay calm, breathing is wonderful. Also, something that goes hand in hand with this is imagery. That\u2019s the next one.\n4. Imagine Success\nNext, refer back to your bullet point list. Add confidence to it, then start seeing it in your mind. You see yourself doing every detail of this skill perfectly, feeling confident, feeling free, feeling like Wednesday in your mind. Boom! You\u2019re hitting them, landing them, solid, smiling, and coach is happy. Everybody\u2019s happy. People are cheering (or nobody\u2019s watching, whatever works best for you).\nJust keep landing them in your mind. Keep breathing and get into that confident place that you really need to be in, over and over in your mind, which will remind you that you\u2019ve actually done them over and over, and it will get your brain to remember you don\u2019t have to think that much.\nOverthinking on Purpose\nI look at visualizing like studying. You\u2019re basically thinking so much about this skill off the ice, that when it comes time to actually do it, you don\u2019t have to think about all the pieces, you can just go. You\u2019ve crammed for the test, over and over, you\u2019ve thought about every single thing, now trust that you\u2019re ready, turn your mind off, and just go take that test.\nI do this with swimmers. We\u2019ve thought about every single stroke for every single lap, so when they get in the pool, they don\u2019t even have to think about it. They just get in and swim.\nIf you\u2019ve broken your skill down, you\u2019ve really dissected it and looked at it\u2026\nAnd you\u2019ve imagined yourself performing confidently, you\u2019ve felt it inside your own mind, and you\u2019ve felt the cold and the landing and the confidence, then just go try it.\nNeutralize Negativity\nThen we address negative thinking. You\u2019ve got to get a handle on what\u2019s going on in your mind.\nKeep a thought log. For those of you guys who are in the Perform Happy community, I have exercises in there on neutralizing negativity. There is also a detailed thought log that can help you figure out what is it that you\u2019re thinking that\u2019s sending you sideways.\nAlso, determine what you\u2019re thinking that\u2019s helping you. Make sure that you turn those negative thoughts around and get the right ones in place that are actually going to help you.\nThen repeat. Then you go back to the beginning and increase your awareness.\n5. Let Go of That Need to be Perfect\nLet go of that need to be perfect, and just go have a little fun.\nReally, everybody puts so much emphasis on the competition. The way I see it, competition is just a check-in. It\u2019s an opportunity to find out, \u201cHow is my training going?\u201d\nAt each competition, gather more information about yourself as a skater, then go train some more.\n\u201cHow\u2019s my training going? Okay, good information. Back to training.\u201d\nIf you can look at it that way, like it\u2019s not this big end-of-the world thing, but it\u2019s just a check-in that will guide your training, it takes a lot of the pressure off. When the pressure is off, the tension goes away, allowing your body to do what it knows how to do.\nHopefully that helps some of our figure skating friends out there. If you have questions, you can always reach out to me at rebecca@performhappy.com. If you want to join us in the community and have access to me for questions like this, all the time through our our private Facebook group, or through the online forums, you can join us at performhappy.com.\nWe also have weekly live trainings and courses on everything from turning anxiety to confidence, mental toughness boot camp, everything you\u2019ll need to get from where you are to where you want to be.\nAll right everyone, thanks for joining me.

Will the replacement stores try to capture their new customer\u2019s business by changing their market plan?\nIn response to being asked how Stop & Shop would keep their new customers, Alexa M, Customer Care Representative for Stop & Shop responded: \u201cOver the last few months we have worked hard to provide our customers with a great shopping experience and excellent value in all of our stores. We continue to do everything we can to keep our shelves stocked and ensure we have enough associates available to assist our customers. We have also brought in associates from other stores to help as needed.\u201d\nIt appears that Stop & Shop will rely on their continued customer support in the hopes of keeping their new customers and will not change their business philosophy to profit from Market Basket\u2019s conflicts.\nWill you go back to Market Basket or will you now shop in your new grocery store?\nMarcie Ricker\nMarcie Ricker is a grandmother who lives in Hamilton, MA with her husband, children and grandchildren.

        "raw_content": "Daylight Autonomy 101\nSpecifying useful daylight deeper into the interior\nSponsored by Lutron Electronics Co., Inc.\nDefine the concept of daylight autonomy and several metrics that can be used to identify where glare conditions may exist and where useful, soft daylight fills the space.\nIdentify the many design decisions that affect the amount and type of daylight that is available to a project and how deeply that daylight travels into a building.\nCompare the performance of manual shades and automated shades in terms of their ability to maximize the amount of usable daylight allowed into the space, provide glare control, preserve views, and achieve daylight autonomy objectives.\nExplain the results of daylight simulations conducted by LMN Architects proving that automated shades would create a large useful daylight zone while controlling glare, which created the comfortable, daylight-filled office space it wanted to design.\nThroughout history, daylight has been considered in the design of the built environment. Before electric light was invented, in the late 19th century, daylight was the primary light source available to illuminate the interior of buildings, schools, and residences. The houses of Ancient Rome were commonly found to have been planned around a courtyard, with surrounding rooms positioned so that the available daylight could penetrate deeper into the space. A guiding principle of Michelangelo\u2019s iconic Laurentian Library, built around 1550, was to maximize the presence of daylight from both the northern and southern exposures in the reading room. In the mid-1800s, the one-room schoolhouses found throughout the United States relied on large windows to provide the teacher and students with enough light for their lessons.\nToday, while buildings could meet their illumination needs entirely with electric light, the inclusion of daylight in the interior is credited with several important benefits. Daylight exposure has been linked to improvements in employee productivity and student performance, and even the regulation of a person\u2019s circadian rhythm, the internal clock of the body which drives the sleep/wake cycle and has a powerful impact on general well-being. Beyond the touted health benefits, using daylight instead of electric light to illuminate interiors could save an enormous amount of energy, making it a good-for-the-body and good-for-the-planet lighting solution.\nThe key challenge lies in the fact that daylight is a dynamic light source. It comes in many forms, and its presence changes almost hourly. Daylight is affected by the time of the year and the weather conditions of the day. Fortunately, the advancements in daylighting technology and design know-how made in the past decade now make it possible to use the presence of daylight as an illumination source. Some designers are even seeking to use daylight as the exclusive light source for much of the day. This design objective, referred to as daylight autonomy, requires the careful reconsideration of many of the early design decisions made on a project and the selection of the right daylight management system to create a comfortable interior space, largely lit by the sun.\nThe expansive glass facade of the Zurich Headquarters in Schaumburg, Illinois, is outfitted with automated shades to protect the interior from glare, while maximizing the amount of usable daylight allowed into the building.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Contract Research Organization\u00bb Vendors \u00bb Genae\nPhilippe Kassab, President genae Americas\nMedical device and diagnostic companies are conducting more clinical trials than ever, as more than 500,000 types of devices are produced globally each in service to a variety of health objectives. Clinical trials that encompass thousands of patients generate large amounts of data\u2014from the processes that span across enrollment to site-activation and monitoring. On a simple yet powerful mission to combine these massive amounts of clinical data with technological expertise to deliver the best results at the end of the trial period is genae. With over 15 years of experience and 450 device trials in various therapeutic areas, this clinical research organization has created a quality management system that is curated and designed for medical and combination devices. \u201cThe co-founders identified an unmet need for excellence in medical device clinical trials, which was the driving point to the inception of genae,\u201d says Philippe Kassab, president of genae Americas.\nAfter building a strong footprint in Europe, seven years ago, the company spearheaded an expansion into the U.S. market to help its clients transition smoothly into the FDA clinical trials. With unequivocal expertise in the technology and infrastructure required to standardize and harmonize their work across both the geographies, genae focuses on developing the full approach to handle every intricacy involved in the trial phase. In 2014, genae acquired e-novex, a leading provider of electronic data tools, and expanded the expertise for safety, data, and regulatory management in-house, which enabled them to deliver second-to-none solutions tailored to their client\u2019s requirements.\ngenae\u2019s global CRO offerings stand on three major pillars that uphold the safety and ethics involved in medical device clinical trials while improving the standards of care across the healthcare industry.\nCombining genae\u2019s clinical expertise in medical devices with strong digital health and analytics will allow for accelerated and efficient outcomes\nThe first part entails clinical trial and site management, and onsite or remote monitoring. The second is regulatory and safety, which are critical components to a successful study, and genae ensures this by timely regulatory submissions as well as the ongoing clinical safety reporting as per the regulatory requirements. The third component is the digital health unit that provides a data collection platform for an organization who can garner real-time insights through the meaningful data delivered.\nLast year, genae launched a digital health data management platform called staicy that not only captures data but adds layers of powerful analytics and AI technologies to handle clinical trial data in the most effective cloud-based manner. Additionally, the product meets all the regulatory requirements from HIPAA compliance to 21CFR Part 11, ensuring its critical role in the success of clinical trials.\ngenae strives to position itself as an extension of their client\u2019s clinical department, irrespective of their size or the type of work at hand. Their approach paves the way for a clear understanding of the unique requirements of their clients, enabling them to customize their solutions to create a flexible clinical trial pathway accordingly. \u201cClinical research is a very people-focused business, and our services provide the flexibility and adaptability our clients require to deliver the support our customers need,\u201d says Kassab.\nAt the beginning of this year, the company announced the acquisition of HPX, which is a robust analytics platform that will foster genae\u2019s data-driven approach and enhance their clients\u2019 deliverables when it comes to clinical pathways. They plan on adding more refinements to their flagship product, staicy, which will result in the complete digital transformation of medical device clinical trial processes. \u201cWe will continue focusing on the development of clinical trials and footprint expansions in the U.S. market,\u201d concludes Kassab.\ncontract-research-organization.pharmatechoutlook.com/vendor/genae-untangling-the-complexities-of-clinical-trials-cid-209-mid-28.html",

        "raw_content": "last edited: February 2018\nStudent Progress Forms (more information is at the bottom of the page)\nAdmission To Doctoral Program\nAdmission to the doctoral program is by a vote of the Department faculty and is determined by performance on the Preliminary Research Presentation and Exam, course grades (we expect a positive Calingaert score computed over all courses taken as a graduate student at UNC), admissions information, accomplishment on assistantships, and other testimony from the faculty. Admission is normally considered following the research presentation and exam. Students who have been major contributors to a paper submitted to a well-known, refereed conference or journal may apply for a waiver of the admissions exam.\nFinancial support from the department will normally not be provided beyond the fourth semester for students who have not been admitted to the doctoral program.\nWhen a student enrolls, a faculty member is appointed to serve as the student\u2019s academic adviser. As the student\u2019s research interests become defined, the student should change to a research adviser as appropriate. Changes in adviser should be reported to the Student Services Manager.\nA full-time Student Services Manager maintains student records, answers student queries, and directs student requests to the Graduate Studies Committee and to the Graduate School. All student requests should be made through the Student Services Manager, usually on forms obtainable online or from the Manager.\nThe following are minimum requirements. The student\u2019s committee may impose further requirements as it judges appropriate. Unless otherwise specified, \u201ccourse\u201d means a 3-hour graduate-level course. Two 1.5-hour courses may be accepted as equivalent to one 3-hour course. Taken \u201cas a graduate student\u201d does not necessarily mean at UNC-CH, and it permits the course to have been taken as a UNC-CH post-baccalaureate Continuing Education student.\nPrimary concentration. Three or four courses of which at least two support in depth the specific dissertation topic and at least one supports more generally the area of computer science in which the dissertation topic falls. The courses do not need to be related to each other, except in that they support the dissertation. These courses may have been taken as an undergraduate and may have been counted towards an undergraduate degree.\nBreadth requirement. Each student must take an additional 6 courses to fulfill a breadth requirement. Courses are classified into the following 4 categories.\nOutside of CS\nThe set of six breadth courses must meet the following criteria.\nAt least one course in each of the 3 CS categories, and at the 600 level or above.\nNormally no more than 2 courses in any category but students may petition to apply 3 in a category outside of their thesis research area(s).\nAll 6 courses must have been taken as a graduate student. Courses taken at UNC that satisfy the guidelines for the set of breadth courses will be accepted automatically. The Graduate Studies Committee will consider courses taken at another graduate program, or equivalent professional experience, and/or graduate courses taken during undergraduate study, on a case by case basis.\nCS courses in the set must be at the 500 level and above or COMP 455 . COMP 550 is not allowed as one of the set.\nAt most 1 CS course in the set can be at the 500 level. (We may consider 2, by petition to the Grad Studies Committee, for students with non-CS backgrounds doing interdisciplinary research.)\nThe non-CS courses must support either the dissertation research or the field of computer science, and be at the 400 level or above. If the course is not on the standard list, it must be approved by the Graduate Studies Committee.\nThe student\u2019s mastery of content will be determined by the course grade in the six courses satisfying the breadth requirement: a P- or better must be obtained in each course, and a Calingaert score of 0 or higher must be obtained on the six courses combined.\nBackground Preparation. In addition, each student must demonstrate mastery of the subjects considered to be essential or required preparation for our graduate program. The following UNC-Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) courses define the required preparation for our program (for a more detailed description of the course contents, consult the UNC-CH course catalog).\nCOMP 523 Software Engineering (this requirement may also be satisfied by completing the product quality, large scale programming option below)\nTypically most of this material will have been part of the student\u2019s undergraduate education, but it is entirely normal to include one or more courses in the Ph.D. Program of Study to satisfy this requirement. Each student must detail their Background Preparation (Form CS-1) showing when and where the material above was mastered (note that a course is not required; industrial experience, for example, is a valid way to fulfill this requirement). In case of uncertainty about the material required, consult the instructor of the course or the instructor(s) of courses that include the material as a prerequisite. The program adviser and the Graduate Studies Committee review background preparation.\nMinor. The election of a formal minor is optional and infrequent. If a minor is elected, it must include at least 15 hours of courses that are taught by departments other than COMP (and are not merely cross-listings of COMP courses). The minor must also meet all the requirements described in GSH: Doctoral Degree Requirements.\nRelevant graduate courses from other accredited institutions or from other graduate programs at UNC-CH can be transferred to satisfy any of the foregoing course requirements (GSH: Course Credit). Course transfers must be approved by the Graduate Studies Committee and by the Graduate School. The Graduate School may require the student to pass an examination on the course content before approving the transfer. Courses taken at Duke University, NC Central, NC State University, UNC-Charlotte, and UNC-Greensboro may count as home courses with Inter-Institutional Registration. For more information and forms regarding Inter-Institutional Registration, please see GSH: Registration and Office of the University Registrar: Inter-Institutional Programs.\nAn undergraduate software engineering course, such as COMP 523 ,\nPreliminary Research Presentation And Exam\nDoctoral Written Examination\nIn the Department of Computer Science, the Comprehensive Paper Option of the Writing Requirement serves as the Doctoral Written Examination. It is identical to the written form of the M.S. Comprehensive Examination. If failed, the examination may be retaken, once only (except by petition).\nThe Doctoral Oral examination may be taken by any student who has passed the Doctoral Written examination, and whose program of study has been approved by the Graduate Studies Committee.\nThe examination, normally two to three hours in length, will be administered by the student\u2019s doctoral committee. The scope of the examination will be selected by the committee, which will inform the student in writing of its selection well in advance. The scope will be limited to testing areas of weakness identified on the Doctoral Written Examination, preparation for research, and subjects judged by the committee to be relevant to the area of the student\u2019s dissertation. If, after passing the Doctoral Oral examination, the student undertakes dissertation research in a different area, the doctoral committee appointed for the new dissertation may require the student to take a further Doctoral Oral examination on the new area.\nIf failed, the examination may be retaken, once only (except by petition), after a lapse of at least three months (GSH: Doctoral Degree Requirements).\nThe candidate must present a dissertation constituting a worthwhile contribution to knowledge developed by the independent research of the candidate, meeting scholarly standards of organization, presentation, and literary merit, and prescribed standards of form (GSH: Doctoral Degree Requirements and the Graduate School document Guide to Theses and Dissertations). The advisor and at least two other members of the student\u2019s committee will read carefully the entire dissertation.\nA cooperative meeting of the student with his or her doctoral committee will be held to discuss the feasibility of the student\u2019s proposed research. At least one week before meeting, the student shall submit to the committee a brief written dissertation proposal defining the scope of the proposed research and the planned method of attack on the research problem. The committee will either approve or reject the plan at this meeting. The student is responsible for arranging the time and place of the meeting. The meeting can either precede or follow the Doctoral Oral examination, by either a short or a long interval, at the discretion of the student and committee. The student is expected to call a committee meeting at least every six months to discuss the progress of the dissertation, and to submit a one-page summary of progress each semester to the Director of Graduate Studies.\nThe student\u2019s doctoral committee consists of at least five persons, a majority of whom must be regular members of the COMP Graduate Faculty. Other committee members may be faculty from other institutions, scholars from industry, or others whose expertise is relevant to the dissertation (GSH: Doctoral Degree Requirements). At least one committee member must hold the rank of Associate Professor or higher. The student names the committee by submitting the \u201cReport of Doctoral Committee Composition\u201d form. For each proposed committee member who is not on the Graduate Faculty, acurriculum vitae should be submitted with the Report of Doctoral Committee Composition form to the Student Services Manager. The dissertation adviser serves as committee chair, unless the adviser is not a COMP faculty member, in which event a COMP faculty member serves as chair.\nThe student must register for at least six credit hours of dissertation, COMP 994 (GSH: Registration).\nThe Final Oral examination normally consists of a public dissertation defense confined to the subject area of the dissertation. The student presents his or her research for 50 minutes; questions follow from the committee and from the audience. If the committee feels it necessary, it may supplement the dissertation defense by a private examination on other material. Before the defense can take place, the adviser and at least two other members of the student\u2019s committee must agree that the dissertation is in substantially finished form. The defense should be announced at least two weeks in advance. The student must apply by the deadline to the Graduate School for award of the degree (GSH: Graduation).\nFour semesters of residence credit must be earned. At least two of these must be earned by continuous registration for no fewer than six semester hours per regular semester or summer session, although registration during the summer is not required for continuity (GSH: Residence Credit). The residence credit hour requirement requires UNC-CH registration (i.e., no transfer credit). Note that a semester in residence is not identical to a semester of residence credit.\nEach student must take COMP 915. For students interested in teaching a course in the department, they must have completed this course before they can be assigned for teaching.\nEach student is strongly urged, but not required, to spend at least one summer in employment as a professional computer scientist.\nA doctoral written examination, a doctoral oral examination, and a final oral examination covering the dissertation and other topics as required by the examining committee must be passed. Students must be registered the semester(s) in which exams are taken. Students must be registered for COMP 994 (minimum of three credit hours) in the semester in which the dissertation is defended (GSH: Registration).\nAll requirements for the Ph.D. must be completed within eight calendar years from the date of the student\u2019s first classification as a doctoral student by the Graduate School. If a student is admitted directly to doctoral study, as indicated in the letter offering admission, the eight years begin upon first registration. If a student is permitted by faculty vote to bypass the M.S. degree, or to continue beyond the M.S. degree, the eight years begin at the start of the regular term or summer session that immediately follows the faculty vote or that in which the M.S. is conferred. Although the Department tries to keep track of degree time limits, the Graduate School\u2019s interpretation is controlling, and students are responsible for meeting the time limits. As much as two years of time spent in active military service, the Peace Corps, or VISTA will not be counted against the time limit, provided that the Graduate School is informed. Also, a student may request a leave of absence for a definite, stated time, not to exceed one year. If the Department and Graduate School approve, the duration of the leave is not counted against the time limit (GSH: Doctoral Degree Requirements).\nIf degree requirements change during a student\u2019s stay in the Department, the student has the option of continuing under the old rules or switching and satisfying all the new rules. In other words, the student can elect any point in time during his or her stay in the Department and satisfy all the rules in effect at that point.\nDoctoral students are expected to contribute to department outreach efforts by volunteering to demonstrate research projects or engage with visitors during community outreach events. Students are encouraged to contribute three to six hours of outreach per academic year.\nThe following schedule represents typical progress toward the Ph.D. degree. Failure to complete certain milestones may result in a student being deemed as making unsatisfactory progress and could impact funding. The forms referenced may be obtained online or from the Student Services Manager.\nComplete the Preliminary Research Presentation or apply for a PRP waiver.\nGain admission to PhD candidacy through PRP and faculty vote.\nDiscuss research plan with at least three (potential) committee members; submit Form CS-12.\nName the remaining members of the doctoral committee (Graduate School form).\nSubmit Plan of Study (Form CS-6) with background preparation (Form CS-1) approved by the committee.\nSubmit a dissertation proposal to the committee; hold meeting for approval of proposal or\nPass the Doctoral Oral examination.\nSubmit dissertation proposal and pass the Doctoral Oral examination.\nApply for Admission to Candidacy for a Doctoral Degree (Graduate School form).\nSatisfy the program product requirement; submit Form CS-13.\nSatisfy the teaching requirement: submit Form CS-11.\nSubmit course waiver forms as appropriate.\nEvery six months after approval of the dissertation proposal\nMeet with the committee to discuss dissertation progress.\nBy the end of semester 10\nWhen dissertation is in substantially finished form, announce dissertation defense, giving two weeks\u2019 notice.\nPass Final Oral examination (dissertation defense).\nSubmit completed and signed dissertation to the Graduate School.",

        "raw_content": "Terror in the Name of God: The Rise of Religious Terrorism\nFollowing the terrorist attacks of September 11, Americans are coming to grips with terrorist violence. Since the 1980s there has been a shift from politically motivated to predominately religiously motivated terrorism around the world. The differing ethical foundations of religious terrorism have seen an increase in the level of violence and lethality of terrorist attacks. Many of the major world religions and various new religious movements have participated in these attacks. Sociological studies and interviews with terrorists from religiously motivated terrorist organizations reveal a pattern of transformation in a marginalized religious group\u2019s thinking that can lead to motivation for terrorism. The rise of religious terrorism in our time may point toward an increasingly violent future.\nThe events of September 11, 2001 are deeply imbedded in the minds of all Americans, and others around the world. I remember eating breakfast while watching the news that morning. By the time I turned on the television the first plane had crashed into the first of the World Trade Center\u2019s twin towers. As I watched the drama unfold I thought it was an unfortunate human error or mechanical failure that had caused a small plane to veer off course and hit the tower. Then, to my shock I watched a jetliner crash into the second tower. This second crash moved the incident beyond the realm of accident, and into the frightening arena of a deliberate attack. America, seemingly impervious to terrorist attacks plaguing the rest of the world, was now revealed to be all too vulnerable to such violence.\nAs the days passed following September 11, investigators learned that a vast network of Muslim terrorists with ties to Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan were responsible for the meticulous planning and execution of the attacks. Radical Islamic terrorists have made the news for years and this was not surprising. But the joy expressed by terrorist leaders after the attack, and their claim that the attacks came with the sanction of God, did surprise many Americans.\nA videotape was discovered by American troops in December 2001 as the war on terrorism progressed through the mountains, caves, and valleys of Afghanistan. Bush Administration officials eventually released the tape of Osama bin Laden and his co-conspirators discussing the attack. Through translators, a terrorist leader says to bin Laden, \u201c\u2026everybody praises what you did, the great action you did, which was first and foremost by the grace of Allah. This is the guidance of Allah and the blessed fruit of jihad.\u201d[1]\nSadly, the claim that God directs acts of terrorism that result in the violent deaths of thousands of people is not unique to the Islamic world. Similar claims are made by extremists from a variety of world religions and smaller religious groups: Sikhism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity in the form of the American \u201cChristian\u201d Patriot movement, as well as Roman Catholicism and Protestantism in Ireland, and various new religions. As we will see, there has been a dramatic increase in religious terrorism. Indeed, terrorism in the name of God provides the primary motivation for a host of international and domestic terrorist groups. In this article we will examine what terrorism is, note the rise of terrorism motivated by religious ideology, look at examples of terrorist groups within a variety of religious traditions, and comment on why such people kill in the name of God.\nDefining terrorism is not as easy as it might seem, but it is necessary if we are to differentiate it from other forms of violence. One of the difficulties we experience is that definitions often differ depending upon the perspective of the one providing it. Mark Juergensmeyer, professor of sociology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, interviewed a number of terrorists and found that not one of them considered themselves terrorists. It has been said that one person\u2019s terrorist is another person\u2019s freedom fighter, and this self-understanding of terrorists is important for our purposes of definition, and to our overall understanding of religious terrorism. From within the mindset of terrorist \u201ccultures of violence\u201d the world is already a hostile place, and the groups themselves, and those they represent, are the ones under attack. What those on the outside view as terrorism and unprovoked aggression, those perpetrating the acts consider self-defense:\nThis is a significant feature of these cultures: the perception that their communities are already under attack\u2015are being violated\u2014and that their acts are therefore simply responses to the violence they have experienced.[2]\nOur examination of terrorist cultures and their self-identity that sees violence as self-defense should not be misunderstood as providing justification for terrorism. Nothing justifies deliberate acts of aggression against innocent civilians. But the self-understanding of terrorist \u201ccultures of violence\u201d provides an important observation for us as we develop an appropriate definition, and consider the motivations for their actions.\nAn obvious purpose of terrorism is to terrify. Juergensmeyer writes:\nThe word comes from the Latin terrere, \u2018to cause to tremble\u2019\u2026the trembling that terrorism effects \u2013 is part of the meaning of the term. It is appropriate, then, that the definition of a terrorist act is provided by us, the witnesses \u2013 the ones terrified \u2013 and not by the party committing the act.[3]\nThus the one\u2019s terrified through such acts of violence contribute part of the definition of the term. Beyond this, Bruce Hoffman, one of the world\u2019s leading experts on terrorism, defines terrorism as \u201cthe deliberate creation and exploitation of fear through violence or the threat of violence in the pursuit of political change.\u201d[4] This will serve as a good working definition.\nMany people associate religion with acts of compassion and kindness that flow out of ancient ethical systems. While every religion has its radical fringe, the association of religion and terror is difficult for many people to grasp. Unfortunately, religion and terrorism have a long history of association.\nFor example, many words that we use to describe violent acts come from religious terrorist groups in history. The word \u201czealot\u201d comes from a Jewish sect that fought Roman occupation by terrorist means. The word \u201cassassin\u201d comes from a group of radical Shi\u2019ite Muslims, and literally means \u201chashish-eater,\u201d referring to the ritual use of hashish by the assassins before they committed acts of murder. Our final example is the word \u201cthug.\u201d This word comes from a group of Hindu robbers and murderers who followed Kali, the goddess of death and destruction.[5]\nWhile the present intimate association of religion and terrorism is a recent development of the last few decades, sadly, religion has long provided motivation for terrorism. Indeed, \u2018[u]ntil the 19 century, religion provided the only justification for terrorism.\u201d[6]\nOver time the foundations and motivations for terrorism shifted. Terrorism motivated by a religious imperative gave way to new groups primarily motivated by political concerns. While many of these groups had religious aspects to their causes, their political, ethnic, and nationalist motivations were the primary motivating factors. For a time, religion was not the chief concern of these groups.\nBut this changed in the 1980s. This was a decade that saw a dramatic rise of religious terrorism, primarily in the form of radical Islamic and Jewish groups. This rise in religious terrorism continued into the decades that followed.\nIn 1980 the U.S. State Department roster of international terrorist groups listed scarcely a single religious organization. In 1998 U.S. secretary of state Madeleine Albright listed thirty of the world\u2019s most dangerous groups; over half were religious.\u2026[T]he proportion of religious groups increased from sixteen of forty-nine terrorist groups identified in 1994 to twenty-six of the fifty-six groups listed the following year.[7]\nWith the increase in the number of terrorist groups motivated by a religious agenda the religious foundations of such groups moved beyond Islamic extremism. As previously noted, religious terrorism now encompasses representatives from the major world religions and a few from a variety of new religious movements.\nDeadly Differences\nTerrorism experts have noted important contrasts between the ethical systems that drive terrorism motivated primarily by political or ethnic considerations as opposed to those with religion as the primary factor. Political terrorism is concerned with committing relatively small acts of violence against a particular group on behalf of a constituency in order to motivate another group to make political changes on the terrorist group\u2019s behalf. In the ethical system of political terrorism, it is to the terrorist group\u2019s advantage to keep the magnitude of violence and casualties low. Such groups are also less likely to kill indiscriminately.\nBy contrast, religious terrorism has a radically different ethical system. They often act for no one other than themselves. They have no external constituency they are trying to influence, and most importantly, they believe they are using violence with a divine mandate. For the \u201choly terrorist,\u201d \u201cviolence [is] first and foremost a sacramental act or divine duty executed in direct response to some theological demand or imperative.\u201d[8] Religious terrorists therefore see themselves as part of a cosmic struggle against evil. With this radically different worldview and ethical system, the religious terrorist is much more likely to engage in killing that results in massive casualties (as evidenced in the Oklahoma City and World Trade Center bombings). Perhaps even more frightening, the religious terrorist is also more likely to use weapons of mass destruction, such as nuclear, radioactive, biological, or chemical weapons. The threat of weapons of mass destruction by terrorist groups, once thought highly unlikely by terrorist experts, is now considered a very real possibility. As we will see, biological and chemical weapons have already been used by religious terrorist groups.\nParticipants in the Cultures of Violence\nAs we have seen, religious terrorism is not limited to Islamic extremism. A variety of religions have fringe elements engaged in acts of terrorism.\nAlthough Christians do not usually equate Christianity with terrorism and violence, this grand world religion is not exempt from this plague. Examples of Christian terrorism include Eric Robert Rudolph, linked to the 1996 bombing of the Atlanta Olympic Games, as well as abortion clinic bombings in Birmingham, Alabama and Atlanta, Georgia, and the bombing of a lesbian bar also in Atlanta. Rudolph, who is still being sought by federal authorities, is likely influenced by heretical and racist \u201cChristian\u201d Identity teachings.[9]Identity provides an ideological foundation for a variety of other groups, including Aryan Nations, Posse Comitatus, and likely influenced Timothy McVeigh, convicted and executed for bombing the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City. McVeigh is known to have visited Elohim City, an Identity compound, and to have read from The Turner Diaries, a fictional book that, though not claiming to be Christian, has been used to promote Identity conspiracy theories that have led to religious terrorist violence.The Turner Diaries was written by William Pierce, who once wrote for the American Nazi Party.\nIn addition to Rudolph, McVeigh, and radical anti-abortionist terrorists, Christianity also struggles with the ongoing violence between Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland. Although many question whether this struggle involves political differences rather than religious, it cannot be denied that both sides in this struggle have committed acts of murder and destruction in the name of God.\nIslamic terrorism is the type most people naturally think of when the subject comes to mind. Prior to the September 11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center, the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, as well as the attack on the U.S.S. Cole in Yemen, all linked to Osama bin Laden, were notable examples of Islamic terrorism. Osama bin Laden is affiliated with a radical form of Islam known as Wahhabism. Wahhabi Islam began as an Islamic revivalist movement in the eighteenth century. Today it represents a radical movement of Islam that is promoted around the world primarily through Saudi Arabia. In addition to the radical Wahhabi background, bin Laden also had ties to the al-Qaeda terrorist network, and the Taliban movement, which served as the governing authority in Afghanistan. The Taliban are not associated with Wahhabi, but do represent a very strict and radical form of Sunni Islam, one of the main sects of this world religion.\nOther examples of Islamic terrorism include the previous World Trade Center bombing in 1993 credited to Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman, Hamas suicide bombers, Islamic Jihad, various Palestinian organizations such as Hizbollah, and numerous other Islamic terrorist groups.\nIn a discussion of Jewish terrorism we should note that such acts of violence have not always been in response to Islamic terrorism against Israelis. Radical Jewish activists have been involved in proactive attacks against Muslim officials and civilians, as in the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 by Yigan Amir, and the attack at the Tomb of the Patriarchs by Dr. Baruch Goldstein in 1994. In both cases the perpetrators cited divine callings and theological justification for their killing.\nIn 1984 Beant Singh, a Sikh militant, murdered India\u2019s prime minister, Indira Gandhi. Several years later in 1995 a massive explosion killed India\u2019s chief minister. Investigators later identified the perpetrators as members of the Babbar Khalsa, a deadly guerilla movement active in Punjab. The last several decades have seen increased violence and terrorism in the struggle between Sikhs and Hindus. This violence is not likely to diminish in the near future.\nNot only have the major world religions been plagued by the scourge of religious terrorism, new religious movements, often viewed as heretical offshoots or \u201ccults\u201d by their \u201cparent\u201d religions, have engaged in terrorism as well.\nOne notable example comes in the form of followers of the late Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (later known as Osho) in The Dalles, Oregon. In 1984, 750 people became sick after eating in restaurants after Rajneesh ordered his followers to spread the salmonella bacteria in order to influence local elections. The event was thought to only be a trial run for a much larger attack, possibly on the city\u2019s water supplies. It was the largest outbreak of food borne disease in the U.S. that year.[10]\nAnother startling example was the 1995 poison gas attack on a Japanese subway by members of Aum Shinrikyo (now known as Aleph). This attack used deadly sarin nerve gas, which killed 12 people and injured more than 5,000. The Aum attack was the first mass-scale chemical terrorist attack. In addition to its chemical weapons, the group built a vast arsenal of biochemical, biological, and conventional weapons, including mustard gas, anthrax, botulism, Q-fever, and TNT. Aum was fascinated by technology, and even experimented with seismic weapons designed to trigger cataclysmic earthquakes in Japan. While the group\u2019s leaders, and those who perpetrated the attacks, are currently undergoing trial in Japan, the group is still in existence, has expanded its membership in Japan and Russia, and has shorn up its financial stability through various business ventures. Group leaders have also recently been charged with attempting to stage additional terrorist attacks to force the Japanese government to free Shoko Ashara, Aum/Aleph\u2019s leader. The U.S. State Department includes Aum/Aleph on its list of foreign terrorist organizations.[11]\nWhile these new religions acted in the past, and while Aum/Aleph should be watched in the future, other groups should be closely monitored, including two black supremacist groups in the U.S.\nLouis Farrakhan\u2019s Nation of Islam has long been associated with racist rhetoric and militant tendencies. Although Farrakhan has softened his rhetoric in recent years after his struggles with prostate cancer, and has made moves toward orthodox Sunni Islam that preaches universal brotherhood regardless of race, the Nation\u2019s past affiliations give cause for concern. Farrakhan has prophesied doom for white America, and has called for the establishment of a separate black territory in the U.S. He has ties to a radical, black Muslim street gang in Chicago, El Rukn, and maintains close ties with international terrorist state leaders Mu\u2019ammar Qadhafi and Yasar Arafat. Interestingly, Farrakhan has also met secretly with radical white supremacist groups.[12]\nThe other black supremacist group is Nation of Yahweh, founded by Hulon Mitchell, Jr. (known in the group as Yahweh ben Yahweh, meaning \u201cGod, Son of God\u201d). Until his recent release from prison, Mitchell was serving time for a murder conspiracy conviction stemming from a 1986 incident when Mitchell ordered the fire-bombing of a neighborhood. He was also found guilty of sending members of his group as \u201cdeath angels\u201d to kill whites and blacks who interfered with his business activities. While Mitchell is not permitted to meet with members of his group as part of his parole requirements, he still exercises strong control and loyalty that recently manifested itself in dangerous rhetoric. At a group conference in Montreal in October 2001, group members recited a pledge of allegiance to Mitchell, and shouted their proclamations of being ready to \u201cdie for Yahweh\u2026kill for Yahweh.\u201d Mitchell\u2019s followers see him as a persecuted Messiah and believe the September 11 attacks were divine retribution for the unjust incarceration of \u201cthe great God Yahweh ben Yahweh.\u201d When a female attendee of the conference emphasized Yahweh\u2019s love for all people, a male elder reminded her of the need to \u201cget rid of the deceivers.\u201d[13]\nHow are we to explain acts of religious terrorism? One explanation holds that terrorists are pure incarnations of evil who hate American ideals of freedom. Another explanation is that terrorists have been brainwashed. How else can we explain such acts of immorality and cruelty?\nWhile the explanations offered above contain elements of the truth, they are probably not the best explanations for either the rise of religious terrorism or why terrorists commit unthinkable acts of violence. Surely terrorists commit acts of evil, and to some extent are evil in their hatred for other human beings who do not share their cause, but they are average human beings who are motivated, somehow, to commit acts of violence with the claim of divine sanction. The notion that they hate freedom also seems to be an overstatement because they do believe in some form of freedom, at least for themselves and their peoples. As to the possibility of brainwashing, while terrorists may be indoctrinated in a particular worldview or ideology, the brainwashing hypothesis neglects the complexities involved in conversion to a radical religious orientation that results in terrorist acts. Understanding why people kill in the name of God is a complex subject that resists simple explanations.\nWhat then leads a ten-year-old boy to appear in a terrorist recruiting video featuring an al-Qaeda training camp under the direction of bin Laden? What leads a highly educated Japanese scientist to create chemical and biological weapons to be used on civilians by Aum/Aleph? Or what would so motivate American citizens that they would see the U.S. government as the supreme enemy in a struggle climaxing in a racial war where Christian patriots become victorious?\nJuergensmeyer\u2019s research and analysis provides us with some insights that may provide answers to these questions.[14]14 After interviewing terrorist leaders from a number of different groups an interesting picture emerged. Despite their differing religious foundations, these acts of terrorist violence appear to have common themes and patterns that provide us with a convincing explanation for why religious terrorists kill in the name of God. Juergensmeyer sees a development in a marginalized religious group\u2019s thinking that transforms it into a religious terrorist group. We can summarize his thinking on the steps of this progression:\nAs the members of the terrorist group feel more and more threatened by its perceived enemies, usually enemies with greater political and military might than the terrorist group, the real-world struggle begins to take on a new, transcendental symbolism. The group\u2019s religious ideology transforms the conception of the struggle to where it assumes cosmic dimensions. The group\u2019s struggle is then seen as part of an ongoing battle between the forces of good versus evil. Where outsiders see a terrorist act insiders see part of a cosmic drama or holy war. This conception of cosmic warfare provides hope and motivation for terrorists fighting a more powerful foe.\nScriptural imagery\nThis conception of cosmic war is supported with divine warfare imagery from various sacred texts of Scripture within the group. Christian patriots may appeal to a biblical text which says that \u201cThe LORD is a warrior\u201d (Exod. 15:3, NASB), to the Turner Diaries or the anti-Semitic work The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion. Hindus may turn to warfare imagery in various Hindu scriptures. Regardless of whether the text is an actual piece of scripture within their religious tradition, or simply functions as an authoritative text, the document provides religious symbolism for acts of divine warfare.\nMoral justification\nOnce a religious terrorist group sees its struggle as a part of cosmic warfare, members of the group envision themselves as holy warriors engaged in battle. Their role in battle is symbolized by various scriptural or authoritative imagery that confirms for them the nature of the divine struggle. The ideology then provides the appropriate moral justification for violent acts against civilians who would not ordinarily be seen as combatants and appropriate targets for destruction. The moral justification provided by the ideology of religious terrorists explains the rising death tolls and the deliberate carnage perpetrated by religious terrorist groups. With this background of moral justification for holy war, religious terrorist groups are more likely to consider the use of weapons of mass destruction.\nMartyrs and demons\nFinally, with moral justification for violence the terrorists see themselves and their enemies in a new light. Suicide terrorists become martyrs, sacrificial victims, and heroes in the divine cause. Civilian populations of the enemy are dehumanized and become demons, targets deserving of destruction as part of a greater evil. Such dehumanization then facilitates even greater acts of violence that is further legitimized by the religious terrorist\u2019s worldview.\nThe events of September 11 changed America and the world. We can no longer assume that terrorist violence is a problem overseas that we watch on the news in our living rooms. Terrorist groups increasingly view America as the embodiment of evil. We need to learn to live with terrorism, do our best to prevent its violence, and respond appropriately as a culturally and religiously diverse culture. Responding to terrorism will involve many elements including the following:\nRecognize terrorism\u2019s existence. As we have experienced, terrorism is now an American problem. Even after the destruction of the al-Qaeda network America will face a number of international and domestic terrorist threats. With short American attention spans, maintaining our recognition and awareness of this threat is vital.\nBe alert to your surroundings. Wherever you are be aware of circumstances around you. Report any suspicious activity or persons to the appropriate authorities. The need for alertness will need to be balanced with living a normal life. Living in fear and paranoia of terrorism plays into the goals of terrorist groups. Be alert, but live your life as you did before September 11.\nDistinguish terrorists from the religion they claim to represent. Christians may rightly protest that the terrorism of Timothy McVeigh at Oklahoma City, or the bombings of Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland do not represent the religion of Christianity. This is true. But millions of Muslims around the world would raise the same objections concerning Osama bin Laden and the Taliban. Juergensmeyer has said, \u201cOsama bin Laden is to Islam [what] Timothy McVeigh is to Christianity.\u201d We must remember that every religion has its extremists, and we must be careful to distinguish between a terrorist and the religion that they claim provides the justification for their violence.\nA Disquieting Future\nAfter surveying international terrorism Bruce Hoffman concludes his assessment, as we conclude our study, with a warning that needs to be remembered:\nThe growth of religious terrorism and its emergence in recent years as a driving force behind the increasing lethality of international terrorism shatters some of our most basic assumptions about terrorists and the violence they commit\u2026In sum, compelling new motives, notably those associated with religious terrorism, coupled with increased access to critical information and key components, notably involving [weapons of mass destruction], leading to enhanced terrorist capabilities, could portend an even bloodier and more destructive era of violence ahead than any we have seen before.[15]\n[1]\u201cBin Laden on tape: Attacks \u2018benefited Islam greatly,\u2019\u201d http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/12/13/ret.bin.laden.videotape/index.html.\n[2]2 Mark Juergensmeyer, Terror in the Mind of God: The Global Rise of Religious Violence (Berkeley: University of California Press, 2000), 12.

        "raw_content": "Current (https://current.org/2001/08/ten-tenets-from-mpr-news-2001/)\nTen Tenets from MPR News, 2001\n1) We believe standards matter. We don\u2019t compete with tabloid television, shock-jock radio, or the kind of newspapers found at supermarket check-out stands. We believe public radio must adhere to the highest journalistic principles, ethics and standards for accuracy, balance and fairness.\n2) We believe journalists should make decisions about important news coverage. We don\u2019t make news decisions based on the use of focus groups, seeking to find out what kind of lifestyle news people may say they want. Instead, we seek to provide the kind of news people need to be informed citizens in a democracy.\n3) We believe in the independence of MPR News. As an independent news organization, we stoutly resist interference of any kind, whether from government or corporations or foundations. We are open to everyone\u2019s ideas, suggestions and even criticism, but we make our own news decisions. Within MPR, we have established the principle of a firewall to insulate journalistic decision making from other company considerations.\n4) We believe there should be a sharp distinction between news and entertainment. Although this line is badly blurred today, we believe there must be a clear distinction between news and entertainment, between reality and fiction. We are not in show business. We believe there is too much hype and too many celebrity stories, and not enough fact-based important news citizens need.\n5) We believe that content is king, and words are the key to that content. Great writing and the careful use of words are the currency of mankind\u2019s progress. We take pride in presenting a well-written story and an intelligent talking head, knowing that words and careful editing are critical to understanding and our success.\n6) We believe in appealing to the mind, not just the senses or emotions. Amid the tabloidization and glut of information available today, there is too little news analysis to explain the \u201cwhy\u201d and the \u201chow\u201d of the news. We want to engage and inform thinking citizens, and not contribute to the distraction of mere consumers. Only in-depth reporting can unravel the complexities of our age.\n7) We believe credibility and respect are worth more than popularity. We don\u2019t produce programs for short-term audience gains-that is, to be more popular and achieve higher ratings during a \u201csweeps week.\u201d Instead, we believe that solid and important programming over time will have greater credibility and value, and earn greater respect, contributing to deeper, long-run appreciation.\n8) We believe journalism is a profession. Too often, news organizations simply pass on the opinions of others, or run with the rumors reported elsewhere. This is not journalism. We know that listeners come first. Our audience deserves good journalism, which is based on reporters gathering information, searching for facts, analyzing, sifting and weighing what they find, and then writing clearly about it.\n9) We believe news is a public service, and not a profit center. Public service is the very soul of the journalism profession. To us, news is not just a business, it is also part citizen education, part moral enterprise.\n10) We know that the First Amendment comes with enormous responsibility to serve the public. There may be some who see this constitutional protection as simply a license to make money using the public\u2019s airwaves, but we don\u2019t and we never will. Our bottom line is how well we perform our mission \u201cto enrich the mind and nourish the spirit through radio, related technology, and services. We will enhance the lives and expand the perspectives of our audiences, and thereby assist them in strengthening their communities.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Current (https://current.org/2009/03/why-how-silent-invasion/)\nKaty June-Friesen talks with talks with Oregon Public Broadcasting producer Ed Jahn about the documentary Silent Invasion, which won a duPont-Columbia University Award last month. First, the preliminaries:\nSilent Invasion, a documentary from the producers of Oregon Field Guide, OPB\u2019s weekly environmental TV program now in its 20th year. The program, which aired April 22, 2008, investigates the threat of invasive species such as the yellow star thistle, which destroys grasslands, a grass called spartina, which takes over coastlands, and tiny quagga mussels that are threatening to clog the turbines of Nevada\u2019s Hoover Dam and could hitch a ride to Oregon on unwashed boats. Partners joined in a public awareness campaign, producing a guide to invasive plants, GardenSmart Oregon, and creating a hotline through which people can report invaders. A duPont Awards juror, NPR\u2019s Cinny Kennard wrote: \u201cThe jury was struck by the boldness and courage of OPB to attack such issues and then to put resources against it. The work is educational [and] informative and the production exemplary.\u201d\nEd Jahn, producer and writer; Bruce Barrow, editor; Jack McGowan, narrator; Cal Scott, composer; Michael Bendixen, Greg Bond, Nick Fisher and Todd Sonflieth, videographers; Sarah Fox, associate producer; Jeff Douglas, executive producer and station manager; Steven M. Bass, CEO.\nWho paid\nBarbara Coit Yeager, the Coit Family Foundation, the Willard L. Eccles Charitable Foundation, John and Julie Dixon and the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board, among others. The website was developed with support from CPB.\nWho partnered in campaign\nSOLV volunteer organization, The Nature Conservancy, Oregon Invasive Species Council, the city of Portland, Portland State University, Oregon Sea Grant, Oregon State University and the Salem Statesman Journal, among others.\nCurrent: Why did you decide to make this program? Did something spur you?\nJahn: This is a topic that the reporters for [Oregon Field Guide] have been talking about for a long time. We started to see and hear more and more about invasive species in all of our stories. . . . We would do individual stories on invasive species, and finally we said, \u201cWe really should take a bigger look at this.\u201d\nHunting down a state\u2019s most rapacious immigrants: Producer Ed Jahn and videographer Todd Sonflieth scout invasives in Oregon\u2019s backcountry.\nWas the topic being covered by other local media?\nFor the scale of the problem \u2014 as you\u2019d hear it explained by scientists \u2014 it was amazing how little coverage this was getting, almost none. We thought, \u201cWe\u2019re probably better suited than anyone in the state, because we\u2019ve got multiple environmental reporters right here at our station.\u201d Our preproduction for this show came very much from just doing the reporting for Oregon Field Guide.\nYou promoted the program as a \u201ccall to action\u201d to help stop invasive species. How did you approach combining advocacy with \u201cstraight\u201d investigative journalism?\nWe talked a lot about that before we started. . . . Our approach was, \u201cWe\u2019re not going to just put out another depressing environmental documentary.\u201d The public has really had a lot of that, and the [response] is \u201cOh, great, what do I do about that?\u201d Especially because we were dealing with this on a local level, we felt a certain sense of responsibility to follow up and say \u2026 \u201cHere\u2019s what you can do, and we\u2019re going to put some materials together to help you go do it, like the volunteer action campaign . . . like the website that allows you to report invasive species directly to scientists.\u201d Honestly, we felt an obligation to do that, that we\u2019d only be doing half a job if we just explained the issue.\nWas there discussion among producers about whether you should be promoting certain points of view?\nThere was, and we started by [asking] \u201cShould we address this as if invasive species are a problem?\u201d Really, when you get into it, that\u2019s like asking the question, \u201cIs the Earth flat?\u201d There\u2019s really only one answer to that. But there are a lot of other questions we can get into that are more open-ended and we do address, like the appropriate use of pesticides and herbicides.\nTo illustrate how species get where they don\u2019t belong, you visit shipping ports, Idaho ranches and China, among other places. How long did it take to make the program, and where did you travel?\nThis thing kind of grew on its own. At first we were talking about doing a half-hour Oregon Field Guide special, which would have been much more contained in its budget. Then we decided, \u201cWe\u2019re going to go big on this.\u201d As soon as we got the okay, I said, \u201cI need to go to Las Vegas to cover these quagga mussels that invaded Lake Mead\u2014this is a huge story.\u201d \u2026 From there we had a little more freedom, once the funding started coming in, to go to China, Idaho, Washington and various parts of Oregon and Nevada, which were all places we felt gave Oregonians a sense of [how species were] coming in, so they also had some sense of how they could keep them out.\nHow long did you spend making this?\nProbably a year and a half\u2014I was also doing other work for Oregon Field Guide.\nIs Silent Invasion all original footage, or is some of it from previous programs?\nWe had gone and done a spartina story about five years prior, about the invasion of this grass in a bay in Washington. It was an excellent story to follow up on, because when I made a call [people there said], \u201cThings are really changing because we\u2019re getting after it.\u201d They\u2019d started putting massive amounts of chemicals on this grass \u2026 and tracking where it was coming from, which was California. I said, \u201cWe need to go to California and talk about where these things are coming from and what\u2019s being done.\u201d In California, they\u2019re not dumping the chemicals, and this grass is growing like crazy.\nSo you followed invasive species around the country?\nYou follow where they go. For star thistle, we started in Idaho to see landscapes that have been completely invaded. . . . It\u2019s literally slowly pushing over, like a wave, into Oregon.\nWhere did your funding come from?\nWe just saw the need to do it \u2014 to do it now because of certain invasive species problems like the quagga mussels \u2014 and we just started shooting it. As we started shooting it, we said, \u201cLet\u2019s start back-filling the money.\u201d Like any good project, if we had known what it would take up front, there would have been a thousand reasons to say no. We started shooting it, and that activated people at our station to go start looking for money. They found people who had an interest in environmental journalism who literally opened their pocketbooks for us . . . check by check.\nWhat role did the project\u2019s partners play, such as the Oregon Invasive Species Council?\nWe were very aggressive in saying [to partners]. . . \u201cWe\u2019d like it to be more than a documentary\u2014what do you think about helping us with the things that are already part of your expertise?\u201d, like the GardenSmart Oregon guide [to noninvasive plants] [29-page PDF]. We knew we wanted to get a book into peoples\u2019 hands that said, \u201cHere are good things to put in your garden, here are things you should take out and replace.\u201d We don\u2019t have the capacity to make a book like that [alone]. . . . The Oregon Invasive Species Council was our advising team. I went to them early on and said, \u201cI need people I can call and consult with on a scientific level.\u201d Also, I learned they had this invasive species hotline that was manned part-time by one person. We said, \u201cWhat if we put a website together and build this thing to make it easier for people. Would you take it over after that?\u201d They said \u201cSure.\u201d We could not man a statewide volunteer campaign of any significance, but there was already a group called SOLV that had boots on the ground in every corner of the state.\nSome pubcasters think stations need to focus more on these kinds of collaborative public-service campaigns to remain relevant.\nYou have to maintain the barriers of journalistic independence. I think if that is your one rule and nothing comes close to interfering with that, everything else is fair game. If no one else guides your story, no one else tells you what to shoot or what questions to ask . . . why not activate people that have skills better than you?\nWhile working on Silent Invasion, what did you find that surprised you?\nI think the biggest surprise really is that for an issue that gets almost no local media coverage, if you . . . talk to cowboys and fishermen and people who do everyday jobs out there on the land, they\u2019ve all been wrestling with this for years as an absolute crisis. And nobody had asked them what\u2019s going on. There are people who have lost their ranches completely\u2014ranches that have been in the family for hundreds of years\u2014and nobody\u2019s reporting on the fact that invasive species are causing this.\nTalk about the response you got to the program.\nPeople out there volunteering, ripping weeds out\u201450 to 60 people showing up to go do weed pulls. Probably the most gratifying thing was scientists saying, \u201cPeople listen to us now, people have an understanding that when we\u2019re ringing the alarm bells it\u2019s very real. We don\u2019t have to go through the whole explaining process anymore.\u201d . . . On a political level, the governor called the first-ever invasive species summit. . . . Now there are quite a few pieces of legislation being submitted in this legislature to tackle things like quagga mussels.\nWhat are some of the challenges of filming an outdoor program, and what was challenging about filming this documentary?\nOn Oregon Field Guide we\u2019re used to dealing with weather, with all kinds of environmental natural hazards. But getting out in some of these landscapes that were most invaded, like Hells Canyon \u2014 well, Hells Canyon has no sidewalks, and it\u2019s a bit difficult to get around. So we had to jump on horseback . . . in some pretty steep terrain. . . . The quagga mussels were a huge challenge\u2014they\u2019re probably the biggest invasive species threat to Oregon\u2014to the West\u2014but how do you show and explain something that\u2019s smaller than the size of your thumbnail and 60 feet below the water? Talking about how the mussels impact Hoover Dam required us to get inside that dam and have someone show me where these mussels are going to cause a problem.\nWhat was the approximate cost to produce this?\nI think the total real costs were between $250,000 and $350,000. That\u2019s everything\u2014documentary, campaign, travel, staff time.\nOregon Field Guide is one of the most popular local programs in the public TV system. Why do people like it so much?\nThe show is very much a passion-fueled show. The people who work on it\u2014we all think we have the greatest job in the world. I think that translates into some sense of fun, and it doesn\u2019t feel like tired reporting. Part of it is that in Oregon, our station realized that there\u2019s a place for environmental journalism and people just respond to it. I think in other places they just assume that people aren\u2019t into environmental journalism, so they don\u2019t even try it. You have to try it long enough to build an audience. . . . I\u2019m surprised that more people don\u2019t try it. I think they should have an environmental show like this in every state, because the local media has totally dropped the ball on environmental issues.\nClick map to go to actual Google Maps widget\nIn this Q&A, Karen Everhart talks with This American Life producer Alex Blumberg and NPR reporter Adam Davidson.",

        "raw_content": "Blessed with both poignancy and occasional humour,Claude Barras\u2019s layered stop-motion drama My Life As A Zucchini is the sadly, nuanced and yet optimistic animated treat that you'd expect from the festival.\nIt's the story of Icare, or Courgette, as he'd rather be known. Living in his attic and collecting his bitter single mother's beer cans, tragedy befalls Courgette and he's sent to the local orphanage.\nBefriended by the local policeman Raymond, Courgette tries to fit in with the other kids there. But it's not until the arrival of Camille that he starts to come to life.\nBathed in tragedy and with more darkness than you'd expect (murder suicide, abandonment, jailed parents, refugees, neglect) the gorgeously animated claymation film is a bittersweet treat.\nThere's an underlying sadness running through its veins that makes My Life As A Courgette the story of an orphan that has more in it than Oliver.\nOdd lines here and there offer more than hints of the uncertain life faced by the older orphans (one opines that no one looks at the older children) and the hope they all have each time someone visits - it's heartbreaking stuff writ large on a wider canvas and yet, for family viewing, it's a sign that not every animation is rosy.\nAnd yet in among the darkness, there's a playfulness at work too with the happier moments feeling like small victories in the day-to-day loneliness. Plus, it helps that Barras has made sure the adults in charge at the orphanage are actually normal, rather than the usual caricatures of nastiness.\nThere are plenty of adult touches and less rose-tinted glasses throughout, but the film never loses sight of the fact it's there to entertain as well.\nA detour to the snow brings joy and frivolity to proceedings, and the sense of camaraderie is evident. With a luscious colour palette, the film looks great and yet also different with hues and animation feeling a little different from the norm.\nUltimately, My Life As A Courgette is a Euro treat that hints at much more adult and tragedy than you'd expect. But it does it in a way that never rams home the message but delivers it in the most powerful way it could.\nLabels: My Life as a Zucchini: Blu Ray Review",

        "raw_content": "Writer | 1900-1996 | Murray\nMeridel LeSueur did not receive major recognition for her works until she was in her 70s - a half century after she began writing professionally.\nLeSueur was born in Murray, the daughter of Winston Wharton, a minister, and his wife, Marian.\nBy 1914, her parents had divorced and her mother had taken a job at People's College in Kansas. She and her second husband, Arthur LeSueur, were prairie socialists who fueled Meridel's idealism.\nAs Meridel grew up in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, the girl was influenced by radical farmer and labor groups. The family moved to St. Paul, Minn., in 1917 so Meridel's parents could work in the Non-Partisan League, opposing World War I.\nLeSueur began writing at age 10. She quit school in 1913 after finishing eighth grade and later lived a Bohemian life in New York City's Greenwich Village. Her mother had sent her there to attend the American Academy of Dramatic Arts.\nSeeking fame as a Hollywood star, LeSueur instead found jobs as a stuntwoman and waitress.\nIn about 1926 in San Francisco, she married labor organizer Henry \"Harry\" Rice, a marriage that produced two daughters and then failed.\nLeSueur was at her most productive in the 1930s, churning out short stories for magazines. Her career peaked around 1940 with the anthology \"Salute to Spring.\" I\nn the 1950s she was blacklisted for writing material that the U.S. government considered subversive.\nLeSueur's work gained attention in the 1970s and '80s, largely because of the growing feminist movement. LeSueur was still putting words on paper into her 90s, including works for children.\nWith a copy of a Walt Whitman book within reach, she died in her sleep at Hudson Memorial Hospital in Hudson, Wis., near St. Paul, her longtime home.",

        "title": "\u201cMy Boyfriend Sent Sexy Snapchat Photos to Another Woman\u201d",
        "raw_content": "\u201cMy Boyfriend Sent Sexy Snapchat Photos to Another Woman\u201d\nI just caught my boyfriend of six months exchanging sexy Snapchat photos with another woman after I accidentally saw messages they sent to each other on his computer. (This woman lives across the country now, but she\u2019s someone whom he dated briefly before we met). To me, this is cheating. I confronted him about it and he was extremely remorseful, repeatedly apologizing and, while sobbing, begging me to give him another chance. He said it happened after we had a fight and when he was drunk and sad, which he admitted was not an excuse, but that he wanted to feel desired by someone and had a \u201cmoment of weakness.\u201d He even offered to give me all the passwords to his email and phone, but that\u2019s not the sort of weird relationship I want to be in.\nI said that I needed some time to think about everything, so we\u2019re currently taking some time apart. I\u2019m so torn because I can\u2019t decide if I can fully trust him after this. What if we have another fight in the future, which, like all couples, we inevitably will, and, instead of discussing his feelings about our relationship with me, he again reaches out to another woman? He swears he won\u2019t and that he\u2019s learned from this one mistake, but how do you know when to believe someone?\nIt\u2019s also only been six months, so I\u2019m not sure if I should just break up with him and cut my losses. But I do love him and I\u2019m inclined to give him another chance to prove himself and regain my trust. I just don\u2019t want to be one of \u201cthose girls\u201d who\u2019s like, \u201che apologized, so everything is OK now.\u201d\nIf you or your readers have any advice for me, I would be so, so grateful. \u2014 Undecided\nI think what you\u2019re asking, essentially, is if giving your boyfriend another chance is worth the risk of a broken heart, and whether a broken heart is more probable now that you know that your boyfriend is flawed and has betrayed your trust once already. I can\u2019t answer that for you, but I can say that every time we let ourselves fall in love with someone, or even let ourselves be open to the possibility of loving someone, we risk a broken heart. I can say that love is worth great risk (not all risk, but great risk). And I can also say that you are already invested. You already love. And you will already be hurt if you end things now. Will the hurt be greater if you give your boyfriend another chance and he betrays you again? Yes, probably. But what if he learned from his mistake \u2014 a mistake that maybe wasn\u2019t as damaging as it could have been? What if he learned from it and is genuinely remorseful and the thought of losing you has reminded him how much is at stake? What if, from now on, the mistakes he makes \u2014 because he will make mistakes and so will you \u2014 are more easily digestible than acts of betrayal? What if trust is restored and you go on to have an amazing, loving relationship in which this incident is a hiccup \u2014 one that tested your commitment and brought you closer together and reminded you that you can overcome challenges?\nOf course, the opposite could happen, too. You could wind up with a terribly broken heart. It\u2019s a risk. One that only you can decide is worth taking.\nIf you do decide to take the risk, know that long-lasting love, as wonderful as that would be, isn\u2019t the only possible positive outcome. You could also learn a lot \u2014 about life, about yourself, about the power of forgiveness \u2014 because each relationship and each broken heart and each disappointment and each person we dare to let into our hearts has the potential to teach us an enormous amount. There\u2019s no guarantee this relationship is going to work out or that you will make the \u201cright\u201d decision, but, if your investments don\u2019t lead to the rewards you desire, that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re without value. Some of life\u2019s best lessons come from our biggest disappointments.\nThat said, if you do decide to continue your relationship, I would enlist a \u201ctwo-strikes and you\u2019re out\u201d rule. If he betrays your trust on this scale again, you give him the boot and MOA.\nlemongrass June 5, 2014, 9:21 am\nI could have gone either way until he blamed it on fighting. If he took ownership of what he did then that would change things in my mind but he didn\u2019t. So are you supposed to not speak up, don\u2019t rock the boat in case he acts shitty again? That kills it in my mind.\nrainbow June 5, 2014, 9:48 am\nI came to say exactly the same thing. It was manageable until he went with \u201csee what you make me do?\u201d. That\u2019s the shittiest part.\nSasLinna June 5, 2014, 9:53 am\nI read it differently. According to LW, her bf made sure to emphasize that the fight wasn\u2019t an excuse. For me, what he said is consistent with taking ownership of what he did.\njoanna June 5, 2014, 9:54 am\nI concur. I think the best decision is to let this guy go and find someone who is not vindictive like that. I mean if your fighting at 6 months in and he turns to other women then it really suggests he\u2019s not in it for the long haul.\n*you\u2019re (general you)\nAddie Pray June 5, 2014, 9:57 am\nYes, I thought the same thing. I would have hoped the explanation would have been something along the lines of \u201cI was just goofing around and it meant nothing at all and you\u2019re right I was playing with fire and that was stupid and not worth it at all and I will respect you more moving forward and not do that again and blah blah blah.\u201d So, now, what, every time they fight or go through a rough patch, will he need to feel desired by some other woman? Weird. Having said that, I like what Wendy wrote about risk and forgiveness and this seems like a situation they can work through\u2026.\nkatie June 5, 2014, 10:04 am\nyea i think this is a really great point- and that is a very, very big character flaw in my opinion, the need to be \u201cdesired\u201d when you are feeling down, to the point that one would seek out the attention. to me that points to other character flaws too.\nrainbow June 5, 2014, 10:12 am\nLike being awfully narcissistic and unable to control his temper when under stress. Run for the hills.\nAddie Pray June 5, 2014, 10:44 am\nRight. So, it\u2019s funny because the issue LW wrote in about is the sexy snapshots. That\u2019s the mistake that I think he could learn from and not do again and that could have been just an innocent dumb move that meant nothing. But the more I think of the follow up to it \u2013 that he blamed it on their fight, that he said he needed to feel desired by another woman, and that he\u2019d offer up his passwords and phone as proof \u2014 all of THAT to me are the bigger issues. If the LW gives him a second chance \u2013 which I\u2019d probably still do \u2013 I\u2019d watch out more for these things \u2013 blaming her, needing to feel desired by others, offering the control instead of earning trust (as Sas distinguished articulately below), etc.\nAlso \u2014 sorry, I\u2019m not sure why I\u201dm so commenty today but I can\u2019t stop \u2014 this LW seems smart and has self respect and my guess is that her gut feelings are more about the guy\u2019s follow up and less the sexy snapshots at this point. And I get in the heat of the moment when he\u2019s caught he may just throw out a bunch of stuff like \u201chere, take my passwords\u201d or \u201coh sorry I dunno the fight had me down.\u201d I\u2019d recommend LW sit down with him again and have a talk about these bigger issues and if he\u2019s still all \u201cwell I was mad at you!\u201d or \u201cwell I said you could have my password, gawd, what\u2019s the big deal\u201d etc. then LW will get a good idea about whether the boyfriend is able to get the bigger picture and learn from this.\nNookie June 5, 2014, 11:01 am\nYes absolutely this.\nYeah she seems like a really reasonable person. And having the conversation again a couple of times will be a good indicator of where they stand. Specially if the dude goes like \u201cTHAT WAS LIKE A WEEK AGO I\u2019M A NEW MAN HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO PUNISH ME FOR THIS\u201d too soon \u2013 that\u2019s where my money\u2019s at.\nSasLinna June 5, 2014, 11:08 am\n100% agree. As I mentioned in one my comments, I had a fight with my bf half a year into our relationship. And it was definitely the conversation afterwards that convinced me that we were on the right track.\nsally* August 7, 2014, 10:09 am\n@addiepray I keep seeing this or variations of it in various threads\n\u201coffering control instead of earning trust\u201d\nHow do you believe people earn back trust?\nI figured someone giving you access to their stuff is a way of showing that they aren\u2019t hiding anything, but maybe not?\nCatatonic June 5, 2014, 1:52 pm\nHuh. My ex did this. Every time we had a fight he needed to \u201cfeel validated\u201d by another woman. So he cheated on me repeatedly, usually emotionally. To me, a fight was just a fight. To him, it was insurmountable.. I credit that to his pathological insecurity, but I digress. IMO, there are people who are capable of this sort of indiscretion and there are people who are flabbergasted by it. These two kinds of people would not last long in a romantic relationship. It\u2019s a fundamental difference of moral codes.\nThis is a tough one, and like Wendy I think it can go either way. You ultimately have to listen to your gut and decide whether he seems sincere and appears to have learned something from this, and if your own feelings about him have changed or not. Just to tell a story, my boyfriend and I had our biggest fight about 6 months into our relationship. It was on a completely different issue (nothing to do with cheating), and we both kind of f**ked up. I was scared for the relationship for a bit & it definitely tested my feelings, but in the end I learned a lot from it and was able to adjust my behavior (and so was he). Since then, the issue has sometimes reappeared, but we can now recognize it when it\u2019s happening and we haven\u2019t fought about it anymore. So I definitely believe that it\u2019s possible to get over early relationship hickups and be happy afterwards.\nbethany June 5, 2014, 9:33 am\nOoh, I love snapchat! But no one sends me sexy pics!\nBut seriously, LW, if you really like this guy and think he\u2019s worth it, then sure, give it another try. BUT\u2013 if he pulls any more of this crap, MOA.\nlets_be_honest June 5, 2014, 9:40 am\nI thought snapchat pictures disappeared after a few seconds, no?\nlets_be_honest June 5, 2014, 10:07 am\nSo how did the LW find out about them?\nand isnt snapchat an app for phones? she saw this on his computer?\njlyfsh June 5, 2014, 10:20 am\nif i\u2019m reading it correctly i believe they referenced the snap chats in an email? or some other form of messaging on the computer?\nMorgan June 5, 2014, 10:27 am\nI wondered about this as well. It is possible to take a screenshot of a snapchat, which he could then save to his computer, where she could then see them. That seems like a little more than just exchanging snap chats if he\u2019s then saving them and uploading them to his computer, though. That\u2019s more effort than one time drunk after a fight. Or there was exchanging of pictures on multiple mediums and she just simplified it to snapchat. Which is also suggests a more ongoing thing than drunk one time after a fight.\nhoneybeenicki June 5, 2014, 9:42 am\nAdd me and I\u2019ll send you sexy pictures \ud83d\ude1b Probably of my dog laying on the couch, but whatever.\nhyggelig June 5, 2014, 9:33 am\nLW, something very similar happened to me at around the 7-8 month mark. I felt like you do, I didn\u2019t want to be stupid and just let it go if it was a red flag, but I remember that his apology was very sincere, and he talked honestly about it, and seemed genuinely upset at himself. We also talked about the need for him to communicate with me when he was upset.\nWhen I wrote into DW, the commenters all suggested it was a huge red flag, and I should move on. Ultimately, I was able to forgive him, slowly over the course of several months, and we are still together several years later. So I would suggest you think about if you have a gut feeling that this is a sign or a pattern, or rather just a one time mistake. If, like me, you don\u2019t know whether to trust yourself, just move slowly and see how you feel. Like Wendy said, personally I decided the relationship we already had was worth the risk of believing it was a singular mistake.\nMiss MJ June 5, 2014, 9:35 am\nI think Wendy\u2019s advice is excellent and don\u2019t disagree at all, but I will say that under the circumstances presented here \u2013 only together for 6 months; he blamed you (or you fighting with him) for his cheating; you don\u2019t trust him; you\u2019re not interested in having to keep tabs on what he\u2019s doing to verify he\u2019s not cheating; and you\u2019re really questioning yourself about whether you want to stay with this guy \u2013 I\u2019d probably move on. Relationships can survive cheating, but it\u2019s hard work and you have to really, really want to both survive it and to rebuild absolute trust. I don\u2019t get the impression this guy is worth it to you, LW, so I\u2019d let this one go. There are other guys out there who won\u2019t run to someone else at the first sign of difficulty.\nemily85 June 5, 2014, 9:43 am\nTrust your gut. Only you know if he is truthful and actually remorseful. I was over 2 years into a relationship when I caught my ex-bf doing that and I worked on forgiving him, but ultimately I could never trust him again (in his case it was because he wasn\u2019t trustworthy). I knew after it happened that I should leave, but wanted to give him another chance. In my case, it wasn\u2019t worth it. He broke up with me on my birthday a year later.\nBon Vivant June 5, 2014, 10:43 am\nI had a similar situation as well. His \u201cpromise to not ever to do that again\u201d lasted a grand total of 4 days. What a colossal waste of my time, this was.\nYeah, that\u2019s how I suspect this will go is she stays.\nAt least you only wasted 4 days? Or did you only find out later?\nI found out right away, this guy wasn\u2019t the sharpest knife in the drawer (why I went out with him I\u2019ll never know). That was the end of that!\nLW, obviously I don\u2019t know this guy and as others have noted, people can mess up and learn their lesson. I, being skeptical, would have a hard time getting past this and would always be suspicious and wondering if he was just being more careful about covering his tracks.\nBoobs Magee June 5, 2014, 11:22 am\nBeen there, done that\u2026\u2026..\nThree times with the same guy.\nI look back and just want to kick my own ass.\nktfran June 5, 2014, 9:50 am\nTo be fair to this guy and contrary to what others are saying, I actually do think he took ownership of his indiscretion. Yes, he said he was sad and drunk after a fight and that it was no excuse, but nowhere in this letter she say he blamed the fight on her. From the way she described, it really sounds like he just effed up and he was sincere in his apology.\nSo, WWS, LW! See if you can forgive this ONCE, but if it happens again, I would MOA, because that means he really didn\u2019t learn from his mistake. Hopefully it was just that though, a mistake. They happen.\nI know that when I am truly sorry for my behaviour to another person I say \u201cI\u2019m sorry, I shouldn\u2019t have done that.\u201d By adding that they had a fight, he was drunk and sad and he wanted to feel desired by someone else he is trying to justify his behaviour, if not to her but to himself. That is a huge red flag to me. He may truly be sorry but he shouldn\u2019t be trying to justify why he did it.\nktfran June 5, 2014, 10:03 am\nIDK, if I really fucked up, I would probably try to explain why. I actually think I would. But then again, if it were me, I would want an explanation, so I would offer the same to the other person, unless they said they didn\u2019t want it. We don\u2019t know if this LW asked for one or not.\nI find it difficult to judge whether he was trying to shift some of the blame or not, but the way I picture it was that he came up with a litany of explanations as he was sobbing. I could see that happening if he was afraid of being dumped, which he probably was. If he kept repeating these aspects after he calmed down it would be more worrisome to me.\nlemongrass June 5, 2014, 10:45 am\nAn explanation is one thing. It would be different if he said \u201cit didn\u2019t mean anything, i was just fooling around and it went too far. I crossed the line.\u201d But he didn\u2019t, he said that since they fought he went to his ex-lover and wanted to feel desired by her.\nTax Geek June 5, 2014, 10:05 am\nI think there is a difference between giving a reason for doing something and making an excuse.\nMiss MJ June 5, 2014, 10:06 am\nI think, even giving him credit here, that this kind of thought process: \u201cShe fought with me. I don\u2019t feel loved. I have to seek that attention and validation elsewhere.\u201d shows that this guy probably isn\u2019t ready for a committed relationship. Fights happen. They make people feel bad. But people who are emotionally mature enough to be in relationships (a) understand that they\u2019re still loved, even in a fight; (b) maintain their commitment to their relationship even while hurt or upset and (c) ultimately reach out to their partners, not turn to someone else. If the LW decides to stay with him, this issue needs to be addressed.\nhyggelig June 5, 2014, 10:21 am\nI agree that it is impossible to know exactly how much he may have been blame shifting. But I think it is likely that she wanted to know why at some point, and then he told her. also in her words after telling her he \u201cadmitted it was not an excuse\u201d.\nPainted_lady June 5, 2014, 11:51 am\nI dunno, for me it\u2019s like a non-apology apology, the non-excuse excuse. Because now the LW even went so far as to say, what happens if we fight again? Maybe it isn\u2019t intentional, but what he\u2019s effectively done is ensure that she\u2019s always going to think twice about arguing with him. I think you can explain, and you can even use the fight as a jumping off point, but in terms of, \u201cHere\u2019s how I didn\u2019t handle this well,\u201d or \u201cLet\u2019s talk about the insecurities the fight brought out so I can manage my feelings better when we fight next time.\u201d It\u2019s not the fight but rather how he handled it.\nAlso, maybe this is me, but I feel like it takes an awful lot of effort and a lot of decisions to send naked photos. You either decide to take the picture or pull photos from your stash of naked selfies (also, what?!), you have to go to snapchat and find your ex, and you gotta send it. These aren\u2019t complicated decisions, but they\u2019re definitely conscious ones. That, to me, isn\u2019t enough of an impulse thing to forgive. Maybe that\u2019s my own perception of everything, but I don\u2019t know that I could write that off so easily.\nI think it\u2019s hard to say. What\u2019s taking ownership for one person can be making excuses or lying or blaming for another. Maybe I\u2019m too cynical, but I think this falls along the lines of something kind of cliche that any old Joe could use to cause the least damage possible. Not that he necessarily made it up, but what\u2019s really going to determine how sincere he was is what happens next, like you said.\nfor_cutie June 5, 2014, 10:00 am\nI say MOA. What kills it for me is that he went back to an old lover. He must still have interest, and her too, for this to even happen. It was cheating and there is no excuse for that. Coping with a fight with drinking or complaining to a friend is one thing, sexy photos with an old lover is re-initiating an intimate relationship. I think there is more going on with his feelings and he is using the fight as a convenient excuse.\nI don\u2019t think this necessarily means he still has feelings for the ex. He probably just wanted affectionate attention and knew he\u2019d get it from her. Could be wrong obviously, but I don\u2019t think its for sure saying he\u2019s still got feelings for her.\nGood point about the old lover. I hadn\u2019t really considered that angle, but yeah, if I were LW that would make it worse for me.\nAccepting an apology doesn\u2019t have to mean that you are glossing over anything. As in he has to earn back your trust. But, only you can decide if it\u2019s worth it. I would discuss this with him one more time, let him know that the fact that he blamed it on fighting concerns you, and that you feel like you might be able to trust him again but he\u2019s going to have to put the effort in. And then you have to put the effort in of actually forgiving. Doesn\u2019t have to be right away, but it has to happen. Don\u2019t let it be something that you hold over his head. And that doesn\u2019t mean you have to forget it or not make him earn his trust back. You just have to be willing to try as well.\npeachy June 5, 2014, 10:09 am\nSix months in seems a bit soon for the bloom to be so far off the rose that sexy chatting with an ex is the first thing someone does. Talk about getting dumped off Cloud 9 in a hurry!\nLW, I think you have to really look at the whole and see if there has been a pattern of similar behaviors. Immaturity is obvious, but blaming you for his actions is low and the actions themselves rather passive-aggressive in my book. There would have to a whole lot of awesome to go along with these unattractive traits to make another go at it worthwhile.\nDo you think people in the olden days had this problem? \u2018I found my husband looking at etchings of the neighbour\u2019s milk maiden!!!\u2019\nAnyway, I would walk away but I have trust issues in the best relationships. I know you love him, examine if you can forgive and forget as these other people have done\u2026 if you can, then give a shot \u2013 no relationship is perfect. But really think about how much of a big deal this is for YOU, nobody else.\njoanna June 5, 2014, 10:26 am\nHehe Nookie, I love your first couple lines!\nThank you! I was just thinking of the nature of snapchat\u2026 it\u2019s an interesting social phenomena to me.\nKate B. June 5, 2014, 10:19 am\nAs others have said, you have to decide if this relationship is worth it to you. I applaud you for knowing that you don\u2019t want the kind of relationship where you have to check his email and phone all the time. I think you should move on.\nI agree about the passwords to email and phone thing. I would hate that.\nI feel like offering passwords and whatnot is not proof that he didn\u2019t do anything. It could just mean he covered his tracks well.\nThis is probably just my personal preference, but I would really be turned off if I was offered access to email and phone as a trust-building method. First, there is the problem that he could still be using another email address etc. Second, I just think that control is no substitute for trust. Of all the things he said, this would have been the thing that would have made me groan the most. But again, most likely a personal preference.\nHa, I posted below at the same time; you said it much better than me.\nI thought your \u201cmonitor yourself\u201d formulation was pretty spot-on. haha.\nKate B. June 5, 2014, 12:54 pm\nExactly. know I would go crazy having to check up on him all the time. I should be able to trust him. I just don\u2019t want to live like that.\nYeah, and I think his offering up his passwords is pretty \u2026 cheap? That\u2019s not the right word. Trashy? No. \u2026 Hold on. \u2026 Silly? Juvenile? I dunno what the word is. Untrustworthy? He\u2019s basically saying, \u201chere, monitor me.\u201d No, monitor yourself!!! I\u2019m not feeling very articulate today. There\u2019s just something off about it, to me \u2013 something off about couples requiring passwords and stuff to keep tabs on each other.\nI feel when he\u2019s in desperation to get her to be ok with this, I get why he would say that. Like, Here! I\u2019ll do this! And this! And this! And you can even check my emails! But yea, great point. Monitor yourself.\nmuchachaenlaventana June 5, 2014, 10:43 am\nYeah it is like almost an admission of guilt or like that he can\u2019t actually be trusted to not do it again. I would hate to ever have to monitor someone else\u2019s shit, you are an adult you should know what is right and wrong and not appropriate in a relationship.\n\u201cmonitor yourself\u201d should be put in the book of DWisms i think.\nAurora June 5, 2014, 11:57 am\nI agree, especially with \u201cjuvenile\u201d \u2013 that\u2019s how it strikes me too. Like, really? It\u2019s not the LW\u2019s job to make sure he isn\u2019t doing stupid shit \u2014 it\u2019s his job to not do stupid shit in the first place. And I love \u201cmonitor yourself\u201d, that\u2019s a great one. Though now I\u2019m just picturing it said in the voice of that little girl in the viral video where her dad was helping her buckle her car seat and she was all \u201cWORRY ABOUT YOURSELF!\u201d\nAddie Pray June 5, 2014, 12:11 pm\nHaha I had to Google that video; it\u2019s priceless.\nCopa June 5, 2014, 12:16 pm\nMy most recent ex offered up his passwords to me like 3 weeks into knowing him. We hadn\u2019t fought or anything \u2014 we weren\u2019t even exclusive yet \u2014 so it wasn\u2019t prompted by trust issues. I don\u2019t really remember how it came up because that was like a year and a half ago \u2014 I think maybe in context of me asking if he was sure he was ready to date again post-divorce? Maaaybe??? But I do remember it was weird in the moment, and I was all, \u201cErm, no thanks? I don\u2019t need your passwords\u2026?\u201d and didn\u2019t think much of it as our stupid romance plopped along.\nHe turned out to be a HUGE liar. He lied about big things, trivial things, and incredibly dumb things. And he also had a lot of other issues aside from lying. Like, tons of insecurities (that prompted the lying) and then SUPER strange behavior post-breakup (started with sending me puppy pics in the initial weeks and escalated to checking up on me like 7x/day despite already dating someone else, to whom he got engaged to after like 3? months).\nSo I\u2019m now of the \u201csomeone who offers up passwords so someone else can monitor their behavior is weird\u201d camp based on one dumb relationship/anecdotal experience. It\u2019s not how trust is earned.\nDW is apparently all about me today.\nOh, and in an attempt to make this less about me and more about LW: my ex ^^^ also had issue taking responsibility for his actions. I knew this early on about him in context of his marriage to his ex-wife. I learned it the hard way when a TON of weird stuff came out in the open after we broke up.\nI don\u2019t know how old you & your boyfriend are, LW, but I just remember thinking to myself about my ex during a closure talk we had a few months ago during which he proceeded to do nothing but blame bad behavior on other things, \u201cMaybe if we were 19, I\u2019d feel differently about this. But his refusal to take responsibility for his actions at 32 both irritate me and make me pity him.\u201d\nI think it really could go either way. I think Wendy\u2019s \u201cTwo strikes\u201d advice is solid, because it\u2019s too tough to decide what to do based on this one instance. Obviously it was poor judgment on his part, and COULD indicate either chronic poor judgment or shadiness, but it could also be a one-time thing that he learned from.\nFrom experience, I\u2019d say 1) Yes, this was a shady thing that he did, and 2) It\u2019s fairly likely he\u2019ll do something similarly shady in the future. That said, from reading your letter I think you probably want and need to give it more time to find out.\nCheating because you\u2019re bored can be easier to stop than this, IMO. I was the other woman in a situation like this for a couple of years before I realized what the douche was doing (I was younger and admired him, it sort of clouded everything) and it\u2019s awful how strong his need for validation was.\nEven when I had already understood everything and told him what he was doing as he did it he would deny it vehemently. I told him \u201cYou\u2019re doing this because you\u2019re panicking because your GF questioned you and you feel unloved. You\u2019ll be embarrassed tomorrow, stop it, dude!\u201d IN THOSE WORDS and he kept going on about how I was the only woman who ever understood and he wanted to move in with me.\nHe could never stop. Like he couldn\u2019t stop drinking and yelling when he\u2019s mad. He\u2019s just too desperate. A GF later I had to block him on FB because even though I wasn\u2019t even talking to him anymore he would reach for the likes-and-flirty-comments cannon as soon as the poor thing had an opinion different than his. It was very painful and a bit disgusting to see someone so desperate to be admired and approved of that they would lose sight of the situation like that, in the end that\u2019s what helped me move on.\nTL,DR: I\u2019ve seen this, it points to bigger and nastier problems. Run.\nLyra June 5, 2014, 10:38 am\ni definitely agree to trust your gut. That will give you the answer that is right for you.\nPersonally I couldn\u2019t/wouldn\u2019t take him back. In my opinion at 6 months things should still be smooth sailing. After a fight instead of trying to resolve it, he sent pictures to another woman. To me that would not be ok. I\u2019m not saying that it *couldn\u2019t* work; obviously you\u2019re the only one who can make that decision. I\u2019m saying I would be super hesitant to give a guy like this a second chance. I\u2019m glad he acknowledged that drinking isn\u2019t an excuse, but he still did it you know?\niwannatalktosampson June 5, 2014, 11:15 am\nInteresting this letter just made me learn something about myself. When I was reading through it I was thinking that *logically* sending a sexy snap chat with someone you used to date isn\u2019t that big of a deal. Logically. But it gave me the grossest feeling in the pit of my stomach. To reach out to an ex because of a fight, and have it continue, and have her continue to think that our relationship obviously doesn\u2019t mean that much because you\u2019re sexting her \u2013 just no. I wouldn\u2019t forgive it.\nMan it\u2019s like everyday I learn something new I\u2019m not willing to forgive. It\u2019s probably really stressful dating me.\nIt\u2019s probably not really stressful if you\u2019re a decent human being who respects boundaries.\nUnfortunately, we know none of that is true for Iwanna \ud83d\ude41\nlemongrass June 5, 2014, 12:16 pm\nI was talking about iwanna\u2019s bf not her. I could have made that more clear.\nI don\u2019t know, I think knowing your limits and being clear about them is actually less stressful, even if there are a lot of limits. If someone can\u2019t work within your limits, they know. No surprises. It\u2019s also probably less stressful for you, too, because there\u2019s not any question of whether or not you should forgive. I wish I could be so clear, but for me so many things just seem like a gray area. Fortunately, with the exception of sometimes not having a lot of direction, Walter hasn\u2019t ever done anything that made me have to question that gray area.\nI like knowing my boundaries because it does take a lot of the stress off me. I think it comes from knowing yourself well and what makes you happy and what doesn\u2019t, what you\u2019re willing to put up with, etc. The hard part is sticking to your guns sometimes.\nTeri Anne June 5, 2014, 11:18 am\nSending sexy photos to a former girlfriend is a huge boundary violation, but the real red flag is that the boyfriend is not accepting responsibility for his mistake. Being drunk is no excuse for bad behavior. What concerns me the most is that the boyfriend is blaming the LW for his bad behavior, saying that she made him feel inadequate.\nKate B. June 5, 2014, 1:01 pm\nYeah. Being drunk doesn\u2019t cause bad behavior. It lowers your inhibitions so you\u2019re more likely to act on those impulses.\nmylaray June 5, 2014, 11:40 am\nSomething similar happened with my ex. About the first 6 months of our relationship, he was texting very inappropriately with a former hookup (no pictures) and I found out about and was really torn on what to do. I tried to explain it away to myself by saying our relationship was hard with him going away on business every other week. I did give him another chance because he was genuinely apologetic about it and I believed it wouldn\u2019t happen again. We dated for 2 years and I do believe nothing else ever happened. But, while I trusted him, sometimes I would get irrational anxiety over the fact that he could have done something and I would have no idea simply because it happened before. I wouldn\u2019t say it was the major reason we broke up, but it was definitely there 2 years later. I honestly couldn\u2019t see myself with someone long term/for life who has betrayed my trust in that way, even if it happened a long time ago. My relationship with my husband feels like a fresh start. There has been no cheating or major trust breaking events. And for me, since I struggle with so much anxiety, it had been a huge difference in how I feel in the relationship. It\u2019s your choice to do what you want but think how you will feel in the future if you stay. Will you will be able to forgive and move on without getting any resentment? Once you forgive this, it\u2019s easier to forgive other transgressions. Go with the two strike rule Wendy mentioned if you stay.\nPainted_lady June 5, 2014, 12:13 pm\nMaybe this is me, but Snapchat photos don\u2019t strike me as \u201cstuff you stupidly do in an attempt at self-care when you\u2019re drunk.\u201d Going and making out with someone, getting someone\u2019s number, leaving a really needy voicemail or text, those seem like impulse things. This feels, I dunno, too deliberate to excuse it away. Maybe I\u2019m old, but I don\u2019t drink and Snapchat. I don\u2019t drink and naked selfie. I certainly don\u2019t do both, plus seek out an ex \u2013 even if they\u2019re on your recently contacted list, you have to find that person \u2013 to send naked selfies to. I don\u2019t know, it\u2019s like that line from West Wing: \u201cI accidentally slept with a prostitute last night.\u201d \u201c\u2026\u2026\u2026.Did you trip?\u201d If you do this kind of thing, I don\u2019t feel like you do it because you\u2019re drunk and sad. I think you do it because you\u2019re drunk and you\u2019ve misjudged how likely it is that you\u2019ll get caught.\nLW, maybe I\u2019ve got this all wrong. Maybe it\u2019s totally possible to do this sort of thing just because you\u2019re drunk and sad, and yet learn your lesson and never do it again. But what\u2019s going to give you your answer \u2013 aside from the answer that you decide for yourself, that you won\u2019t forgive him even if what he says is totally true \u2013 is how contrite he continues to be. If he accepts that you don\u2019t trust him in the same way you did, if he does everything possible to re-establish that trust, and if he does it for as (reasonably) long as you need, then yes, likely lesson learned. And I retract my previous paragraph. However, if he gets tired of being \u201cpunished\u201d for this before, say, a few months, RUN. Anyone who decides that forgiveness of their fuckups must be on their timetable, is not really sorry. They don\u2019t see that consequences are a result of their actions. And they don\u2019t own, not really, that the mistake was theirs.\nBreezy AM June 5, 2014, 1:05 pm\nMaybe I\u2019m still too raw\u2026\nBut if I could go back, knowing what I know now, I\u2019d run like hell. My husband was like that. He was sorry. I forgave. Not because I was stupid but because I was a nice person who believed everyone fucks up and is redeemable. He said all the right words. We got married. Found out it was bullshit. He went to therapy. He said he had a \u201cproblem\u201d (yeah, he didn\u2019t want to grow the fuck up). He even did weeks of inpatient treatment. Years went by. I believed we had some \u201cissues\u201d but thought he was truly done with that phase of his life.\nSpent the last two years with him basically hating me and resenting me for breathing. Nothing I did was right. I even told him \u201cthis is like when you were in an Emo Affair with That Bitch.\u201d He said I was a crazy paranoid bitch ruining our relationship with my anger and insecurity.\nIn January, I found out I was right. In March, after two months of claiming to be working on the marriage, while constantly seething at me more than ever, he moved out. In May, I found out he only stopped talking to That Bitch at the beginning of May, despite telling me they\u2019d ended things in January (oh and he wasn\u2019t banging her, no, he was banging a few sex workers tho. She was just the emo affair).\nThe last decade of my life was a complete waste and an entire lie. My husband brings new meaning to the joke \u201cwomen fake orgasms, men fake entire relationships.\u201d\nI am slowly rebuilding my life, my soul. I\u2019ve only today reached the Phil Collins level of \u201cI don\u2019t care anymore.\u201d\nI have two preschoolers with this fucking dirtball. I will never, ever be free of him. It\u2019s like being in prison.\nNow maybe your guy isn\u2019t that much of a sociopath as Mr AM. But\u2026 do you really want to wait around to find out? Because believe me, my husband has a rep of being the most wonderful, kind, decent, generous man on earth. HE DOES PRO BONO WORK FOR A FUCKING BATTERED WOMEN\u2019S SHELTER. He cries when animals die. He plays baseball and is sweet to old ladies.\nHe\u2019s also a lying bastard incapable of a real relationship and just threw away his family because he couldn\u2019t stop banging sex workers, or bother being honest about it.\nDon\u2019t be me, playing Whitney Houston\u2019s \u201cIt\u2019s Not Right\u201d on repeat all day long so I don\u2019t cry. Dump that mother fucker. So not worth waiting to find out.\nKate June 5, 2014, 1:21 pm\nBreezy, I\u2019m glad you\u2019re rebuilding. And do you ever watch the video to \u201cIt\u2019s Not Right (But it\u2019s Ok)?\u201d It\u2019s really good. I love it! Watch it now!\nCatarina July 28, 2018, 4:31 am\nLucy June 5, 2014, 1:27 pm\nDTMFA. Sorry, but it\u2019s only been 6 months. That\u2019s still the honeymoon period. And if his first instinct when you have a fight is to get drunk and solicit attention from other women, that\u2019s pretty pathetic. Find a grown up to date.\nA fight is an odd excuse. At six months, I doubt you were having some kind of earth-shattering fight that might push a person into some weird, dark place. I would personally either not believe him or be concerned about his ability to be in a relationship if that\u2019s how he responds to a fight.\nI probably wouldn\u2019t continue seeing him. Wendy weighs risks of love versus hurt or the benefits of learning about yourself. Personally, I think it\u2019s less abstract. Six months is still within the time where you figure out if someone is right for you. At that point, I think it\u2019s hard to know if this is who he is or is just a mistake. Moving on is less about not wanting to take a risk of getting hurt and about making an educated choice about who you want to be with. That\u2019s not the kinda guy I\u2019d choose. As for learning, I\u2019ve learned much more from walking away than sticking it out with someone I don\u2019t trust.\nHonestly? This is what happens when you frantically (six months?) rush headlong in the dreary arms of monotony. Oh, wait, oops. Typo. I meant, monogamy. Although, frankly more and more I realize they are one and the same as I am surrounded by ghost couples who are about as sexual with one another as a pair of dead fish.\nI do LOVE all the projection going on here though. Many are bagging on the guy for making excuses. Truth? We have no idea why the guy gave excuses. Although the most obvious reason is he was immediately confronted by a whole lot of whining: \u201cWhy-yyyyyyyy?! How-owwwwwww! C-c-c-ould You-ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Dooo-ooooooooooo This?!\u201d\nYeah, in my experience people are most prone to make excuses when they are demanded to do so.\nMy take? Eh, the guy\u2019s crying is what put me off. What a frigging wimp.\nThat said, I am so tired of snooping people stumbling upon shit. It\u2019s all just so fucking boring. And frankly, everybody should have fucking privacy. End of story.\nSummerRose June 5, 2014, 6:15 pm\nIt sounds like the LW WAS snooping, yeah. But presumably, they both agreed to be monogamous. If he didn\u2019t want to be committed to anyone and if he wanted to date around or hook up with various people (and there is nothing wrong with that at all), he should not have agreed to a committed relationship in the first place. (And I\u2019m assuming the LW and her boyfriend are exclusive, unless I\u2019ve missed something).\nHe agreed to a commitment, so he should have honored it. If he no longer wanted to be committed to her or anyone else(nothing wrong with that either), he should have broken up with the LW instead of sneakily going behind her back.\nHonestly? Sending a vaguely naughty picture to somebody thousands of miles away is just NOT cheating in my book. It\u2019s called having a fucking life.\nTo you it may be fine. But it doesn\u2019t matter what you or I think. What matters is how the two of them define cheating.\nThough I\u2019d say most couples, straight AND gay, would not be cool with their SOs sending naked pictures to other people behind their backs. Unless it was previously discussed and okay\u2019d\nBasically, agree to be monogamous, or don\u2019t. But if you tell someone you\u2019re going to be exclusive with them, you don\u2019t get to go behind their back.\nveracityb June 5, 2014, 7:13 pm\nWith you on the crying thing. Somehow I imagined it all snotty and whiny (somewhat Bieber-ish), and that alone would have done it for me.\nPersonally in my marriage we are as sexual as live fish.\nLindsay June 5, 2014, 11:14 pm\nYou tend to blame the other person for an individual\u2019s reactions a lot. Sure, a person may feel driven to lie or make excuses when someone else is pressuring them or confronting them, but it\u2019s still their choice to do so. If a person crumbles under being asked simple questions, then that\u2019s their own fault.\nI\u2019m late to this but I think there are two minds here\u2013like, some people sext a lot. If I was juuuust starting to date someone, I might expect them to have some sexting partners? So I don\u2019t think it\u2019s totally out there that a dude 6 months into the relationship defaulted to sexting some nudes after a fight. It\u2019s a boundary violation, and probably a sign the relationship shouldn\u2019t continue, though. Also kudos to the lw for know she doesn\u2019t want to be in a weird open password relationship.\nThe passwords thing is kind of a red flag for me, and I forgot to mention why\u2026 see, that\u2019s one of the first crucial steps almost any reputable therapist in infidelity recovery will suggest as part of the recovery process. It\u2019s not something the betrayed partner IMPOSES on the other. No, it\u2019s something the straying partner is supposed to offer up openly and freely, as a demonstration of how open they are, how they don\u2019t mind their partner having the ability to check up on them, because they aren\u2019t hiding things. \u201cTransparency.\u201d I know, I know, everyone here is going to \u201comg that\u2019s so creepy and weird boundaries OMG\u201d but\u2026. for those of us who have cheated (in my past life I was a very, very prolific cheater) and don\u2019t wish to ever go there again, being transparent this way helps keep us accountable. It\u2019s VERY easy to fall back on cheating when it\u2019s a tool you\u2019ve used in past relationships to cope and is already in the box so to speak.\nSo to see him choke that up all of a sudden right on being caught\u2026 makes me suspect he\u2019s been down this road before. That just seems a weird thing to cough up so quickly for a first time rodeo rider.\nMonogamy is one of those charming fantasies it\u2019s so easy to believe in when you\u2019re twenty. Much like the idea that hard work is always rewarded. Or the idea that you can do anything you set your mind to\u2026 That there ARE good politicians who aren\u2019t fucking liars and cheats. Oh, yeah, and that good will vanquish evil and that we can stop all the pointless wars and get people to save the fucking planet.\nThen one day you wake up and find that you\u2019re not only forty fucking three but that in the end it was just fucking bullshit. Oh, yeah, and the planet is dead. But everybody is too fucking busy following Kim Kartrashian\u2019s latest cuntfest \u2014 er, wedding \u2014 to even notice. I\u2019d weep for the future, but fuck it. Fuck it all.\nThat^ was a jumble but that\u2019s whar you get from me when I\u2019m mobile on 5 percent battery after 5 o clock :-/\nHang on\u2026I\u2019m assuming this couple agreed to be monogamous, right? She did call this guy her boyfriend after all\u2026I don\u2019t call a guy my boyfriend if I\u2019m just casually dating him, and if we\u2019re casually dating we can do whatever we want with other people.\nstonegypsy June 5, 2014, 10:36 pm\nSo\u2026 I\u2019m not really sure what to think of this. I mean on the one hand, the sobbing \u201cWe were fighting! I wanted attention!\u201d excuse is pretty lame, and offering up passwords is just creepy.\nOn the other hand\u2026 it\u2019s not like he went out and picked someone up and made out or slept with them. They\u2019re just naked pictures to someone on the other side of the country. It\u2019s basically just like sort-of-interactive porn.\nBut I also can\u2019t stand when a person can\u2019t just tell me what\u2019s wrong, and passive aggressive is my biggest pet peeve and he sort of reeks of it in this letter.\nSo, I dunno. I\u2019d give it some more time and see if he continues exhibiting defensive and/or passive aggressive behavior, if you\u2019re really into him. Breakups hurt either way, and a few months in the long run isn\u2019t that long, so you don\u2019t have that much to lose.\nTheTruth June 6, 2014, 6:09 am\nAbsolute bullshit that men send sexy messages because of a fight. After a fight the last thing I would do would be to flirt with some other chick. He did it because he is bored and because he could.\nHe will do it again. I would.\nCatsMeow June 6, 2014, 8:50 am\nOh, geez. This reminds me of myself in a few ways. First, yeah \u2013 sometimes I drunk sext when I might not necessarily do it sober. The other night I was drunk, sad, and horny and started sexting my ex. Of course, I\u2019m single, but yeah \u2013 I can see it as a drunk impulse thing.\nSecond, I did something similar once and I don\u2019t think I ever admitted it on DW because I was too ashamed (or maybe I did? I\u2019m an over-sharer). I was fighting with my ex \u2013 not just \u201ca\u201d fight but really considering breaking up with him but hadn\u2019t pulled the plug yet \u2013 went out of town, got shitfaced, and drunkenly called him and broke up with him over the phone. I then proceeded to spend the night with a former hook-up. In my weak defense, I obviously couldn\u2019t drive so I needed a place to stay, and we didn\u2019t *do* anything because I was too drunk and he recognized that (and in my drunk head, we were broken up so it was totally fine according to drunk me). But I still woke up in another man\u2019s bed. I called my ex from the guy\u2019s PORCH crying and was like, \u201cDid i break up with you last night? I didn\u2019t meeeean it I loooove you,\u201d and that was that. Of course, I did end up breaking up with him a couple weeks later, because duh.\nTHEN, after my ex moved he got a girlfriend and continued sexting me. I participated because I guess I thought they weren\u2019t serious or exclusive? But when I found out they WERE, i told him i wasn\u2019t comfortable with it and that if I was his girlfriend I would be PISSED. He was like \u201cOh god you are right, I\u2019m such a douche, I guess I\u2019m not ready for a relationship\u201d and then broke up with her.\nSo on one hand, I \u201cget\u2019 the drunk impulse thing, but on the other hand, I really think cheating, or semi-cheating, only happens when there are already problems in a relationship.\nNext Post: Reader Recs: Rachel\u2019s Faves Previous Post: \u201cHe Canceled Our June Wedding and Already Has a New Girlfriend\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 2018 marks third straight year of 100K+ population gains for NC\nWho gets counted in the 2020 Census? \u2192\nPosted on January 24, 2019 by Jessica Stanford\nPublic school systems in the United States face an ongoing shortage of highly qualified teachers, largely due to high turnover in the field. In educational reporting, turnover may refer to teachers that leave the state public school system entirely (referred to as \u201cattrition\u201d) as well as those who transfer to another location within the state (referred to as \u201cmobility\u201d). A 2017 report from the Learning Policy Institute found that as much as 90% of open teaching positions were created by attrition of existing teachers. While retirements play a role in departures, many educators are leaving in pursuit of a new career or higher pay in other states.\nIn North Carolina, the state turnover rate was 13.4% overall in 2015-16, according to data from the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction: an average of 4.4% of teachers transferred to another district within the state and an additional 9% left entirely. The following 2016-17 school year saw mild improvements in attrition (8.7%). However, turnover remained the same overall (13.5%) and mobility slightly worsened (4.8%).\nAmong teachers in North Carolina, retirement with full benefits was the single most common reason for leaving the profession for the last two years (18.7% in 2016-17 and 19.8% in 2015-16). However, resignation due to a career change and leaving to teach in another state also ranked among the top five reasons for attrition in both years, behind family relocation.\nIndividuals who reported leaving North Carolina to teach in another state declined as a share of total departures (from 9.6% to 9.3%). Meanwhile, a growing share of North Carolina teacher departures reported leaving for a career change (from 9.9% to 10.6%). The number of teachers seeking work in a new field grew by 2% from 2015-16 to 2016-17, even as total resignations dropped 4%. This supports findings at the national level that teachers have been steadily leaving their jobs for others careers for the last three years.\nWhere are NC teachers going?\nIn North Carolina, the majority of teachers leaving educational services are pursuing careers in the healthcare and social assistance sector, according to job flows data from the Census Bureau. This data, which tracks both attrition and mobility, found that the number of teachers leaving each fiscal quarter to pursue a new career greatly outnumbered those who transferred to a new school system.\nBetween January 2015 and June 2017:\nRoughly 3,100 teachers, on average, remained in education each quarter but found a new position elsewhere in the state; while\nApproximately 4,100 teachers left for a new occupation each quarter.\nThe graph below represents the top ten occupational groups sought by departing teachers.\nThese job-to-job flows suggest that teachers may be seeking new career paths that utilize similar skill sets to teaching. Healthcare may specifically attract individuals with strong interpersonal skills, a desire for a people-oriented career, and a high degree of flexibility and empathy. At the same time, healthcare jobs generally offer better pay and hours than teaching. Similarly, North Carolina teachers were least likely to transition into job sectors with no clear link to prior skills, such as agriculture, utilities, and mining and gas extraction.\nWhile some turnover is expected and can be beneficial to any industry, high turnover in education can negatively affect student performance in reading and math. Even when the quality of the replacement teacher was found to be higher than their predecessor, researchers still found a disruptive effect in student achievement. In North Carolina and the nation at large, teachers are increasingly leaving the field of education in pursuit of other work.

However, since it is such a wide topic, we decided to focus in on one major cause, fracking.\nOur website raises awareness of the issue on fracking, and what we can do about the issue. On our website, the \"Home\" page describes what fracking is, how it is affecting the world, and the environmental and social problems of fracking; it is an introduction to fracking. On the \"Effects\" page, it contains a gallery. It visually represents/has descriptions of the effects of fracking. The images are used to create an emotional impact on the reader. Additionally, it is used to give more information on fracking. On the \"Alternatives\" page, it proposes alternative green energy choices instead of the use of fracking. Furthermore, we gave advice on the reader on the actions he/her can do to make the world a better place. There even is an About Us page to learn more about our personal information!\nWe wanted a challenge and we wanted to expand our skills in computer science and explore new areas of coding and developing. We used html, css, and javascript to create our website.\nThere were 2 big challenges. The first was learning the language and making it work. The second was dividing our jobs and then combining our code to make everything fit all together.\nWe are proud that we were able pick up 3 new languages in about 2 days and make a complete product.\nWe learned how to make a project under time constraint, and that was a fun experience.\nWhat's next for Say No To The Frack\nIt would be nice to make the website more interactive.

Kliminski, New Jersey Institute of Technology\nIan Sanford Fischer\nKwabena A. Narh\nAn iterative technique was developed to solve the inverse kinematics problem for the joint rotations in both closed-loop and open-loop spatial mechanisms and robotic manipulators in any prescribed configuration. The method is based on fixing one link in space and maneuvering the other links to form a closed chain, following an approximation of the actual physical assembly of the mechanism. In order to apply the same principle to both types of mechanisms, an open-loop mechanism was modeled as a closed-loop mechanism by creating a fictitious fixed link in the free space between the base and the end of the chain of links. A computer program was written to test the validity of the algorithm. The results of several examples and comments on the success and limitations of the method are included. Possible applications and suggestions for future work are proposed.\nKliminski, John D., \"A general method for the inverse kinematics of rotational displacements in spatial mechanisms\" (1995).

While I didn\u2019t have enough favorites in January to make my \u201cfavorites\u201d post, I almost didn\u2019t have enough room for all the amazing books I read in February. I actually don\u2019t remember the last time I had THIS many 5 star reads in one month before. I\u2019ll be listing these in order of stars, starting with the 5 stars and working down. As always, I\u2019ll be gifting an ebook from my list (winner\u2019s choice) to 1 lucky winner, so don\u2019t forget to enter my giveaway at the end of the post!\nPlease. Can you not?\nYou need to stop.\nNo fucking way. This is happening.\nTell him to leave.\nI can\u2019t talk right now.\nTell him you don\u2019t want this. You\u2019re not like this.\nBut I do. I am.\nIf you\u2019re looking for a laugh-out loud sexy romance, this book will definitely hit the spot. I don\u2019t remember the last time I laughed so much at a heroine\u2019s internal monologue. I adored this book from beginning to finish. Did I happen to mention it involves a sassy heroine and a cop that has a penchant for handcuffs and likes his sex extra dirty? Got your attention now, didn\u2019t I? You dirty birds \ud83d\ude09\nI\u2019m unsafe.\nWhat a strange thought.\nBut then again, I\u2019m a strange girl\nHoly mother of mindfucks! And I mean MIND.FUCKS. Because this book will fuck with your head something fierce. I thought the first book was crazy, but this is just on a whole different level entirely. I\u2019m equal parts terrified and excited to see how it all resolves in the 3rd and final book\u2026though I\u2019m thinking that terrified weighs out. This is book 2 in a trilogy and is NOT meant to be read out of order. While I am not usually a fan of YA, I\u2019m a huge fan of this author. So if you\u2019re looking for a royal mindfuck, it just doesn\u2019t get better than this trilogy\nHe\u2019d fought and fought to live and now he was going to stand here and let her do her worst.\nHe didn\u2019t want to live in a world where she betrayed him. He simply didn\u2019t.\nI\u2019ve been a huge fan of this series since the very first book. It has a little bit of everything; espionage, suspense, action, romance, and sizzling hot BDSM sexy times. While you may technically read each book as a standalone, the story arc continues throughout the series, and you would definitely enjoy it much more if you read the series in order. You Only Love Twice is the 8th installment in the Masters & Mercenaries series\nI\u2019d never had anything I could call my own, but Eliza Reynolds would always be mine.\nI have been singing this book\u2019s praises since I first read it a couple of weeks back, and I still can\u2019t shut up about it. It was just THAT good. I cried like a baby and fell head over heels in love with this incredible friends-to-lovers romance. The MCs meet when they are just children and form an unbreakable bond which follows them into their early twenties. They never had an easy life, but their friendship has always been an escape for both of them. The hero is slowly going deaf while trying to make a name for himself in the professional boxing circuit. I cannot recommend this book enough!\n\u2026we were all a product of our past; it was just how we lived with what we experienced that shaped us into who we became.\nIt\u2019s no secret that I\u2019ve been a huge fan of this author since reading her Tear Asunder series. The woman can write the fuck out of grit and angst. Take is book 1 in her new steamy PNR series, and I\u2019m definitely a huge fan! If there\u2019s one thing that Nashoda can do, is give the readers one sexy asshole, and let me just tell you, ladies and ovaries, Jasper is one sexy asshole that you will want to meet.\n4.5 Star Reads\nWhat do you say, Ave,\u201d he asked, searching her eyes. \u201cFeel like making a really bad decision with me?\u201d\nI love a good friends-to-lovers trope, and this book delivered it in spades. Mira Lyn Kelly is a new to me author and one that I\u2019ll definitely be adding to my auto buy list from here on forward. You have childhood friends that have both been secretly in love with each other for years. When the heroine asks the hero for a favor to pretend to be her boyfriend to ward off unwanted attention from an irritating wanna-be suitor, one thing leads to another and the sparks between them ignite. If you\u2019re looking for a light, humorous and sexy read, this is definitely the book for you!\nIt\u2019s the dark moments that make the good ones shine.\nMy favorite book in the Breaking Free series! I just adored Jay\u2019s story. There was no unnecessary drama or angst, just 2 broken souls finding love and peace with each other. While you could easily read this book as a standalone, I\u2019d highly recommend reading each book in order (there\u2019s a total of 3 and Saving Jay marks the end of the series) to really appreciate the characters and their individual stories.\nNothing about this was familiar. Nothing controlled or simple. Just messy, chaotic need, and relief was short-lived because he already wanted her again. And he couldn\u2019t foresee a time when he wouldn\u2019t.\nIf your ovaries can survive a Tessa Bailey dirty talker, then they must be steel plated like mine are at this point. Because hot damn but the woman knows a way to write a dirty talker. Make that dirty talker a Dom with a British accent? And no ovaries within a 30 mile radius will survive. This is book 5 in the Serve series, but may be read as a standalone. You have a tomboyish cab driving heroine and the strict and intense Brit that will bring her to her knees\nWe\u2019re kidnapping a teenager. We should be wearing balaclavas and overalls, not fucking Armani suits.\u201d\nWhat happens when the genius minds of Lili Saint Germain and Callie Hart combine? This entertaining as fuck book. Now I have LOVED both the Blood & Roses and the Gypsy Brothers series. But when these two worlds collide? It\u2019s sure to be one epic fucking ride. You have 2 brothers of an Italian mafioso on a mission to kidnap the daughter of their Irish enemy and all hell breaking lose! Entertaining, funny, and action packed, I loved this from start to finish!\nI loved this standalone novel from Samantha Young. You have the enemies-to-lovers trope a little here. The hero is a successful and rich businessman who has a shared history with the heroine\u2019s father. Nothing better for me than a snarky heroine and I definitely got it here. While I wanted a little bit more from Cain\u2019s reasoning at the end, I did still thoroughly enjoy this one!\nThis is book 2 in K.A. Tucker\u2019s Burying Water series. This is very different from her Ten Tiny Breaths series and is more centered around the romantic suspense element, but I am a huge fan! I loved book 1, Burying Water, and I enjoyed this one just as much. While you may read this as a standalone, I\u2019d recommend reading the books in order since you do meet the hero, Luke, in Burying Water. Having read the previous book will help you connect to the story a whole lot more. The heroine is an undercover officer investigating the hero and his ties to an illegal car chopping business and ties to the mob. Intrigued? You should be \ud83d\ude09\nYou like it hard, woman?\u201d he said between gritted teeth, fucking her with- she was sure\u2013 all his strength. And she gave all her strength back, taking everything he had.\n\u201cYes. Hard. Deep. Don\u2019t hold back.\u201d\nThis is book 3 in Joya Ryan\u2019s Chasing Love series. I\u2019ve loved every single book in this series and cannot recommend it enough. Book 1 had a sexy cowboy, book 2, an intense and broody lawyer, and now book 3 brings us the tatted up bad boy with a Southern good ole\u2019 boy charm. Oh and the heroine is a sassy auto mechanic. Much sexy times ensue.\nShall I compare thee to a\u2026uh\u2026whatever the hell Shakespeare compares thee to.\u201d\n\u201cA summer\u2019s day, but I\u2019m more like a winter storm.\u201d\n\u201cIce princess,\u201d he joked, softly kissing her as he gripped her hips. \u201cYou feel warm to me.\u201d\nWant a Romeo and Juliet story with a modern twist with a splash of mob? This book has it all. The MCs are the children of prominent NY mafia families and bitter enemies. This is book 1 in the Forbidden series and their story will be continuing in the next book. This was my first book by J.M. Darhower, and I can safely tell you that it definitely will not be my last!\nWithin the stirrings of lust she felt every time even his name was mentioned, there was the twinge of something more\u2026something dangerous, and the more she felt herself falling, the more she couldn\u2019t stop herself.\nAs the title implies, this is volume 2 in a series of 3 books. The hero is a recovering sex addict and the heroine is his newest addiction with a secret of her own. Volume 1 was told only in Evan\u2019s POV, while book 2 now brings you Reagan\u2019s. A sexy and intriguing story and one I cannot wait to see how it concludes. This is NOT meant to be read out of order and is a continuation of the story started in Volume 1.\nSometimes, the things that seem the most difficult end up being the most extraordinary.\nAurora Rose Reynolds\u2019s books have been a guilty pleasure of mine for a long while. I love her OTT alphas and the heroines that bring them to their knees. While I wasn\u2019t as satisfied with the first book in this series, Obligation, this one had everything that I love and more. The MC enter into a fake marriage in order for the hero to protect the heroine, but that soon begins to turn into something much more. If you don\u2019t fall for Kai and Mia, I\u2019ll be surprised. A fantastic addition to the series and I can\u2019t wait for the 3rd book!\nI\u2019ve been dying for Rebel and Sophia\u2019s story since first meeting them in Callie\u2019s Blood & Roses series. I can definitely tell you that I was not disappointed. This marks the first book in the series and their story will be continuing in the 2nd book. While not quite as gritty as the B&R series, this was one entertaining and sexy read. Once you meet Rebel, you\u2019ll understand exactly what all the fuss is about. While this is the first book in a new series, it is a spin off from the B&R series, and you\u2019d appreciate the characters more having read that first. However, you will not be lost if you dive into this one first since it is a prequel to the B&R storyline.\nHe wanted to feel all of her- every inch. The woman he couldn\u2019t ethically fuck, he wanted to fuck six ways to Sunday without a single socially acceptable barrier between them.\nThe queen of angst strikes again with the new standalone romance in her Bristol Island tales series. You meet a doctor and his sexy neighbor who is an erotic romance author. What makes their relationship inappropriate? Well you\u2019ll have to read to find that out, but I can definitely tell you that this book had a scene that equal parts cracked me up and made me cringe. Inappropriate indeed. While this is book 2 in the series, you can easily read this as a standalone.\nHe\u2019s a crude, caustic prick who can\u2019t keep his dick in this his pants.\nThe problem is, I just can\u2019t stop thinking about that prick.\nI was seduced by this cover and the synopsis and I\u2019m not even a little bit sorry! This was dirty, sexy, crude and oh so freaking good. The hero is, as the title subtly suggests, a total prick. But then again, y\u2019all know just how much I love me a good asshole. The heroine is his super prissy step-sister to be. This is not taboo since they are not related and their parents are engaged only through this book. So if you\u2019re looking for a super sexy and entertaining enemies-to-lovers trope, this is a must read.\nNew Release & Giveaway: \u2605Booty Call\u2605 by Ainsley Booth\nRelease Blitz, Excerpt & #Giveaway: \u2605Yours Forever\u2605 by Joya Ryan\nBlog Tour, Review & Giveaway: Midnight Soul by Kristen Ashley\nLeave a Comment \u00b7 Filed Under: Giveaways \u00b7",

        "raw_content": "Whilst the current Disley Cricket Club has only been in existence since the 1980s the history of the sport in Disley extends much further back in time.\nThe History of Cricket in Disley\nAt the turn of the 20th Century the sport was played in Lyme Park and enjoyed such popularity that job advertisements for estate workers explicitly stated that cricketers were preferred. Today the workers of the National Trust still refer to the area of the park close to Lyme Cage where the sport was played as the \u2018cricket field.\u2019\nDisley Cricket Club support the legacy of the sport in Lyme Park by running coaching sessions for visitors in the summer months.\nThe rise of the game eventually saw to the formation of the first cricket club in the village itself in the early 1900s. Sadly though they played their last season in 1939 before the team disbanded due to the call-up for World War II.\nIt would be nearly 50 years until cricket returned to the village.\nCricket in Disley resumed with the formation of the modern Club in 1987 as a section of the Disley Amalgamated Sports Club in their home on Jackson\u2019s Edge.\nThe opening game was a star-studded affair between a Clive Lloyd XI and a Peter Lever XI before the side began playing competitive cricket in a variety of local leagues. They eventually settled on joining the Glossop & District League whilst the setup of the Club expanded to include a junior section which would thrive during the late 1990s and early 2000s.\nDuring this time a reshuffle in Cheshire Cricket to an integrated structure left the Club to decide whether to join this setup or the formation of a cross-borders Derbyshire & Cheshire League.\nThey settled for the former and the Club enjoyed a period of prosperity from 2006-14 as the 1stXI won four league titles and three cups with a team largely made up of homegrown players who had represented the Club for their entire cricketing lives.\nDisley Cricket Club now enjoys Sport England Clubmark accreditation and is regarded by the ECB as a Focus Club as they continue to be a hub for the local community. Meanwhile, improve facilities have been subject to numerous successful grant applications.\nThe Club has also expanded relations overseas where they enjoy a link-up with Northern Districts Cricket Club from Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia which has included player exchanges and fundraising activity for both UK and Australian charities.",

        "title": "Top Seven Apps Built With Python",
        "raw_content": "Over its almost 30 years of existence, Python has become one of the most popular programming languages. But if most startups once used it because of its simplicity and low cost, modern giants like Instagram or Spotify use Python and the Django framework to create smooth working experiences. Famously, Django provides fast work processes, clean design, and transparent functionality, among many other advantages. It allows developers at all levels to focus on writing their apps instead of reinventing the wheel (or fixing it, for that matter). On top of that, it\u2019s free, open source, and has gathered a mighty community of developers over the years. Large companies appreciate this. To give you an example, let\u2019s take a look at some apps written in Python that you probably didn\u2019t know about.\nAs you know, this is the app that changed the world of digital photography, made it instant, more accessible and widespread, expanded lines of creativity and defined new rules in marketing. It allows users to take pictures, edit and share them online using a camera as simple as a smartphone. With 400 million active users per day, it obviously negates any notion that apps built in Python are not really scalable. According to Instagram engineer Hui Ding, Instagram\u2019s engineering motto is \u201cDo the simple things first\u201d \u2013 and this is what Python allows developers to do. For them, it\u2019s user-friendly, simple, clean, and favors pure pragmatism. And since it\u2019s so popular, growing an engineering team is a lot easier.\nRanking third behind Facebook and Twitter, Pinterest is a social network that allows users to bookmark images, collect and share them with other users. As one of the web\u2019s most-used apps, Pinterest relies on Python and Django to rapidly deal with large amounts of content. In fact, this website has used Python since day one.\nThis commenting plug-in is a simple and effective way to engage an audience and fuel discussion while controlling incoming content by efficiently moderating the comments. Allowing multiple sign-in options and cross-site notifications, this app serves audiences with all kinds of preferences. In this case, Python makes full use of Django\u2019s security features and regular security patches.\nSpotify is the world\u2019s largest streaming service, with an annual revenue of over \u20ac4 billion. This makes it a major market player and also one of the top Python users among businesses. The company preferred Python development because of its speed and advanced data analytics that the language offers. This enables Spotify to manage functions such as Radio and Discover, which are based on the personal musical preferences of users.\nAnother top app built in Python is Dropbox. The popular file-hosting service recently moved from Python 2.7 to Python 3 in one of the largest Python 3 migrations ever. One of the most popular desktop apps in the world, Dropbox can be installed on Windows, macOS, and some flavors of Linux. It\u2019s a good thing that Python is portable and works on many platforms, from PC and Linux to PlayStation.\nA ride-hailing service that also offers food delivery, peer-to-peer ridesharing and bicycle-sharing (among other services), Uber has a lot of calculations to do. Think about it: the company operates in 785 metropolitan areas worldwide and is estimated to have 100 million users. That\u2019s a lot of math. But again, Python handles large amounts of data and is easy to learn and work with, which are two reasons why Python is so popular. These benefits make it an obvious choice for companies whose applications need to be reliable, secure and rely on developers around the world to maintain it.\nThe American social news aggregator and discussion website Reddit also runs on Python, even though originally it was written in Common Lisp. After looking for wider access to code libraries and greater development flexibility, Reddit made the switch. If you look at it, this website is somewhat of an anthill. With about 542 million monthly visitors as of February 2018, Reddit is one of the most impressive Python app examples. Registered users post content such as text, video, or images in thousands of categories, and vote it up and down. Using a localization management platform, users help translate Reddit into 89 different languages. Again, Python manages the workload and complex functionality thanks to its \u201cbatteries included\u201d approach.\nWhat can we say? That\u2019s a powerful portfolio! As we mentioned earlier, Python used to be a language for rough drafts and startup development because it was simple and cheap. But usually, the simplest solutions are the most reliable ones. The more parts a mechanism has, the higher the chances of something breaking or someone messing up \u2013 which many large companies learned the hard way. That\u2019s why they chose to work with Python, and why so many of the world\u2019s most popular apps are built in Python. Python has proven that you can build an amazing product with simple, time-honored tools \u2013 as long as you create it for the users and don\u2019t have to dig into overcomplicated code.

        "title": "Legislative Resolution Recognizes Student Press Freedom Day | Donna Lupardo",
        "raw_content": "Student Journalist Free Speech Act Introduced in Both Houses\n(ALBANY, NY) \u2013 A New York State legislative resolution passed this week proclaims today, January 30th, as Student Press Freedom Day in the state. The day is recognized nationally by the Student Press Law Center and is part of an effort to secure more rights for student journalists across the country. The resolution was filed by Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo and Senator Brian Kavanagh, each of whom also introduced legislation supporting increased rights and protections for student reporters. The Assembly adopted the resolution on Monday; the Senate did so on Tuesday.\n\u201cIt\u2019s important that New York supports and encourages student reporters,\u201d said Assemblywoman Lupardo. \u201cIt\u2019s a difficult time to be a journalist; in order to ensure that we continue to have a strong, free press we need to make sure students have the same rights and protections as those afforded to professionals.\u201d\n\u201cWhen we limit a student\u2019s freedom of speech and press at their school newspaper, we also obstruct their pursuit of truth. Students in New York deserve the right to produce ethical and responsible journalism without being limited by their school administrators. If we want to teach the next generation of reporters the importance of holding systems of power accountable, we must allow them to experience free speech. Whether you\u2019re writing for your school newspaper or a national news outlet, all journalists deserve this right,\u201d said State Senator Brian Kavanagh.\nIn addition to this resolution, Lupardo and Kavanagh introduced the \u201cStudent Journalist Free Speech Act,\u201d (A3079/S2297) which would give student journalists editorial control over their publications. Currently in New York State, school administrators have the final say in what is published. The legislation, which stems from the national \u201cNew Voices\u201d movement, affords protections to journalists at the public high school level.\nThe Supreme Court\u2019s 1988 Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier decision gave school administrators the ability to review, and ultimately censor, student publications. The Lupardo/Kavanagh bill would still protect schools by exempting speech that is libelous, an invasion of privacy, incites students to commit an unlawful act, violates school policies, or that materially and substantially disrupts the orderly operation of the school.\u201d Currently 13 states have enacted a form of this legislation; you can read more about New Voices at https://newvoicesus.com/.",

The point of departure is an oft-cited argument that appeals to our experience of fear and anger to show the inseparability of the soul. My claim is that this argument is commonly misunderstood: that the intended target is not a separable soul, but an embodied soul.\nReinterpreted, we find that Aristotle is driven by an interest to integrate the sentient body with the intellect. And while, on this interpretation, the argument does not support a functionalist reading of Aristotle on the soul, it does suggest that Aristotle shares key intuitions with embodied cognition theorists and neuroscientist Antonio Damasio, in particular, who demonstrates the dependence of reason on the body.\nCopyright \u00a9 2016, Walter de Gruyter\npath\u00ea (or affections); logoi enuloi; body; functionalism; embodied cognition\nGabbe, Myrna, \"Aristotle on the Metaphysics of Emotions\" (2016).

        "raw_content": "28 aprilie 2018 \u2022 Carmen-Lidia Nistor \u2022 \u0218coala Gimnazial\u0103 Mihai Eminescu, Br\u0103ila (Br\u0103ila) \u2022 Rom\u00e2nia\nCan translations be produced outside the political or cultural vacuum?\nLanguage is an interpretation of culture and personality of its speakers. It has an impact on the way the speakers regard and understand the world. This assumption has a far-reaching meaning for the latest research on cultural mediation. It has been long taken for granted that translation deals only with language.\nTranslation is more than an interlinguistic process. It is not just the replacement of the source text with target language text. In practice the translation includes cultural and educational nuances that can harmonize the preferences and mindsets of recipients.\nWhile bilingualism transfers information and ideas from culture to culture, the translator is the mediator of cultures whose duty is to systematize and generalize the whole process. The translation practice itself is an intercultural activity. From an intercultural perspective the role of the translator is being the intercultural expert able to mediate between cultures.\nPeter Newmark said in Approaches to Translation that \u201eTranslation is a craft consisting in the attempt to replace a written message and/or statement in one language by the same message and/or statement in another language\u201d.\nAccording to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the verb to mediate means \u201cto work with opposing sides in an argument or dispute in order to get an agreement (US)\u201d, \u201cto get (something, such as a settlement or agreement) by working with opposing sides in a dispute\u201d, or \u201cto have an effect or influence in causing (something) to happen\u201d. If we apply all these meanings to the conception of the current duty of the translator we can notice that maybe his most important role is to be an agent that intermediates between two cultures by trying to reconcile all the differences that can stand as barriers in communication.\nThe notion of \u201cculture\u201d is defined by Samovar and Porter (1997) as \u201cthe deposit of knowledge, experience, beliefs, values, attitudes, meanings, hierarchies, religion, notions of time, roles, spatial relations, concepts of the universe, and material objects and possessions acquired by a group of people in the course of generations through individual and group striving\u201d (\u201cIntercultural Communication\u201d). The term \u2018culture\u2019 refers to values, customs, beliefs, and social life. A real fact is that each community has its own culture; one can be more materialistic, another can be just living on daily hunting.\nThis definition of culture is a good starting point in analyzing the relationship between culture and translation practice. One of the challenges that a translator faces is that he should avoid being influenced by a particular cultural background, including the impact of subjectivity while translating. Several connections to what a specific culture is are made when translating; this is known as the cross-cultural side of translations. Nida enunciated that \u201cit is almost inevitable that translators be affected by their own personal set of values\u201d. The total impartiality and objectivity is very difficult to achieve. In the era of unsettling globalizing forces, this can happen also among the different groups or subcultures of the same society, not only between two different societies. An example about the cross-cultural misunderstanding is to address people by names. Some people prefer to be addressed by the first name, while others feel offended. Nida presented Chomsky and TT figure of the translation process.\nThere are also some aspects on cultural mediation and translation, which could certainly be valid for interpreting as well. It is important for translators and interpreters to have background knowledge about the cultures they are mediating for, including traditions, customs, geography, history, popular culture, and even behavior patterns.\nIn its philosophical meaning, subjectivity refers to the essential quality of the subject, the peculiar features displayed in his definite activities. In other words, subjectivity is the externalization of the subject\u2019s innate capacity in his definite activities, the distinctive ability that the subject possesses to change, influence and control his objects actively and to enable the objects to serve the subject. The connotation of subjectivity includes three basic aspects: firstly, starting from the subject and making the object serve the subject; secondly, an objectified function, that is the subject\u2019s distinctive characteristic in the objectified liaison between the subject and the object; and thirdly, the externalization of the subject\u2019s elemental capacity. Norms are social and cultural restraints in nature. All of them represent instructions necessary to be followed; they impose constraints on the translator establishing the \u201ctranslational behavior\u201d. In a social-cultural context, the translator\u2019s decision-making is unavoidably constrained by these criteria. Therefore, on the basis of the analysis of the term subjectivity in its philosophical sense, it can be said that the translator\u2019s subjectivity can be summarized as the translator\u2019s subjective enterprise manifested in the translation process on the prerequisite of being appropriately aware of the socio-cultural criteria to attain the target of translation.\nAs an answer to the extent of subjectivity in translation, it can be said that humans do not live in the world\u2019s manifestations of objectivity; they are not alone in their social activity. It is quite a fantasy to imagine that one adjusts to reality essentially without the use of language.\nCultural and social knowledge shapes meaning in communication besides role relationships and expectations. In communication in general, as well as in translating and interpreting, transmission of messages has a possibility to flourish if the receiver shares that cultural and social knowledge. A series of specific socio-cultural norms are imposed on the translator, and \u2013 through the translation strategies adopted by the translator \u2013 the subjectivity of the translator is shown. These socio-cultural norms consist of politics, morality, religion, ideology, ethics, etc.\nPolitics, as a socially active and politically crucial element, is one of the very important pressures on the translator\u2019s behavior. It cannot be denied that the political factors govern the context in which translations occur. There is no doubt that politics limits the translator\u2019s ideological arena, and translators strive to have a little freedom in their dealing with politics, in case they do want to have their translations accepted by the public.\nPolitics makes it quite clear what topics can be translated from foreign cultures at a given historical time to meet the needs of social development and political stability of the target culture. Therefore, a form of power should not be underestimated, the power of the political influence on the shaping of the translator\u2019s activity. The question that appears here is to what extent should the freedom of speech be a guaranteed right?\n1. Anuradha Dingwaney and Carol Maier(eds.)

Stack Hold Citywide Conference on Opioid and Drug Abuse and Prevention\nMore than 100 residents recently attended a comprehensive information and education conference on opioid and other drug abuse problems sponsored by the Board of Education and Mayor/State Senator Brian P. Stack.\nA panel of 20 experts, including top Federal Health & Human Services officials, addressed the growing opioid crisis and offered valuable information on how parents can detect and treat opioid addiction and other drug abuse issues. The conference was conceived and coordinated by Board of Education Community Relations Director Mercedes Joaquin.\nMayor Stack said communities across America are in the grips of a deadly opioid crisis, and that while Union City doesn\u2019t have a big problem, he is committed to doing everything possible to eradicate opioid and other illegal drugs. \u201cLike all communities, we have a problem and we have to face it,\u201d said the Mayor.\nLast year some 64,000 Americans, including approximately 2,200 in New Jersey, died of drug overdoses, mostly due to opioids, and in one week alone in January of this year 54 New Jersey residents succumbed to drug overdoses.\nFormer New Jersey Governor James McGreevey, who is chairman of the non-profit New Jersey Reentry Corporation, moderated the panel. He told those in attendance that \u201cit isn\u2019t often that you have four high-ranking Federal health officials in your community and that is a testament to their respect for Mayor Stack and his commitment to combating drug abuse.\u201d\nAssistant Secretary for Administration at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services John Bardis applauded Union City\u2019s efforts to fight drug abuse.\nThe grandson of immigrants, Bardis said he understands the concerns of Union City residents. \u201cI am grateful and thankful to you all and what you represent, and what you are doing for your community.\u201d\nPolice Chief Richard Molinari said that while Union City doesn\u2019t have \u201copen air drug markets, there is a problem.\u201d He noted that strong doses of fentanyl, a synthetic form of heroin, are often being mailed directly to residential homes. \u201cPeople have to be aware that kids are getting drugs shipped to their homes, and they have to be on the lookout for that,\u201d he added.\nThe city and the board of education have a wide range of programs and services available to all residents to help fight drug abuse and overdoses. One such program is the non-profit Union City Prevention Coalition, which sends experts to our schools and public events to make people more aware of the dangers of drug abuse, and of the services available to them.\nThe board of education has a comprehensive program to battle drug abuse, including two Student Assistance Counselors (SACs) who are in the high school and middle schools every day working to help prevent and, if necessary, treat drug addiction and abuse.\nThe panel also included several medical doctors, nurses and public health officials with expertise in drug treatment, health care officials who deal with these issues every day and representatives of numerous non-profit organizations which work to stop and/or treat drug abuse and addiction.\n\u201cI want to thank all of the panelists for taking time out of their busy schedules to participate in this important conference,\u201d said Ms. Joaquin. \u201cWe all recognize this is a very important issue and we are doing to continue to inform and educate our residents as much as we can,\u201d she added.\nTo view more photos of the event, Substance Abuse Seminar Photo Album\nA special thanks to UCHS students AOrtiz and JefferyP for taking the photos",

        "raw_content": "Home / Academic Departments / Psychology in Education / Programs / Research Methodology / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)\nResearch Methodology - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)\nThe program is currently not accepting applications.\nDoctoral study is for persons who desire advanced training in research methodology. Doctoral students develop methodological competencies defined by the doctoral curriculum. Every effort is made to tailor the doctoral plan of studies to a student's interest. For example, some students focus primarily on attaining the competence to be a testing and measurement specialist, while others focus primarily on attaining the competence to be a statistical data analyst. Still others develop a more theoretical orientation in psychometric theories or theories of quantitative research methodology. The curriculum in the doctoral program emphasizes the development of advanced competencies in measurement and statistics. These include an understanding of the theory and application of classical test theory, item response theory, generalizability theory, and various statistical procedures (e.g., analysis of variance, regression analysis, nonparametric statistics, multivariate statistics, structural equation modeling, meta-analysis). Students are also required to take two courses in psychology.\nThe first four terms in the doctoral program are devoted to coursework which develops the above competencies. After finishing this course work, students are placed in supervised research settings where they apply the competencies developed. A doctoral comprehensive examination is also required. In the final stage of their program, students complete their dissertation research. Upon satisfactorily completing the program, students are awarded the Ph.D. degree. Students successfully completing the doctoral degree have an understanding of the content, methods, theories, and professional ethics associated with research methodology. They are capable of independently conducting research of an applied nature, translating sophisticated research findings for application in educational settings, replicating research studies, and assisting educators with analyses and interpretations of research findings.\nLane, Suzanne\nPage, Lindsay\nStone, Clement\nEMAIL: sl@pitt.edu",

        "raw_content": "Kerri Barclay is a writer and education consultant in Denver, Colorado. She and her husband have three children in the Denver Public Schools.\u2026 Full profile \u2192\nA few years ago, although my children were happy at their school, my gut told me it was time to make a change.\nI decided to use the school choice system here in Denver. At that time, my twin boys were attending an elementary school, but we weren\u2019t content with the direction the school was headed and felt like the needs of our children were not being met to their fullest potential.\nDuring their second-grade year, I decided to take advantage of school choice and apply to a charter school where my children could stay through eighth grade, if they were doing well. I was a bit anxious about the thought of my kids leaving their former school and starting over at a new one.\nI am a former elementary school teacher and was working as an educational consultant who assisted many families in helping them make decisions about picking the right schools for their children. I had visited many schools in the Denver metropolitan area, both public and private, and was interested in Highline Academy Charter School, which met much of the criteria I was looking for.\nI toured the school several times, made an appointment to observe a third grade classroom, and ran through a long list of questions to the admissions director.\nI yearned for an educational environment that valued high expectations, racial diversity, rigorous academics, character development and a passionate staff that was truly invested in each child. Best of all, I liked its autonomy.\nSo did a lot of other parents because the twins were wait-listed after we submitted an application.\nWe crossed our fingers and hoped that spots would become available later that summer. No luck. I threw in the towel and decided I would use school choice again for the following school year.\nThe twins started third-grade at our neighborhood school when I received a phone call a few weeks in that spots were available for them.\nIt\u2019s three years later and our youngest child now attends the school and while no school is perfect, we are thrilled with the education they receive.\nFamilies are lucky to have a variety of options across Denver if their neighborhood schools aren\u2019t right for their children. One size doesn\u2019t fit all, and for my kids, I want something that conforms to who they are.\nMy advice to others is to consider the school\u2019s mission, the goals and values of your family, and what your children need. Do your homework by visiting the schools and don\u2019t be shy about asking the questions that are important to you. Then, be patient and hang in there. The power of school choice has paid dividends for my family.\nKerri Barclay is a blogger and education consultant in Denver, Colorado.

        "raw_content": "Jessica Rauch\nTake It From a Chicago Parent, This Strike Won\u2019t Help Our Schools\nFrissia Sanchez is an MBA student at the Keller Graduate School of Business and the mother of a first grader at Ruiz Elementary in Pilsen. Full profile \u2192\nI\u2019ve written before about the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) and my concerns about its leadership\u2019s rush to promote divisive tactics like a teachers strike.\nSure enough, those worries were justified. This Friday, April Fools\u2019 Day, CTU leadership is calling on its members to walk the picket line for one day and then hold a mass rally downtown.\nNot all teachers are on board with the plan. Many are frustrated that Friday\u2019s action takes money out of their own paychecks and gives it back to the same district that handed them an unpaid day off work last week. Some are even considering crossing the picket line to stand with their students, in their classrooms, on Friday.\nStraining the Relationship Between Parents and Teachers\nMuch less media attention has been paid to parents and how they feel about the union\u2019s strategy. I actually agree with the union that our state and city have massively underfunded education and it\u2019s time to right that wrong. But I am very disappointed in CTU leadership and how they are handling teachers who oppose the so-called Day of Action.\nA one-day strike in Chicago isn\u2019t going to change Mayor Rahm Emanuel\u2019s mind about what to do, or Gov. Bruce Rauner\u2019s. Maybe the mayor will have trouble getting home from work on Friday. The governor probably won\u2019t feel it at all. Neither is likely to change course based on one day of protest.\nHowever, what the one-day strike could do is undermine the strong relationship between parents and teachers in Chicago. I deeply appreciate my son\u2019s teachers, but I resent union leaders for demanding they leave school for an effort that won\u2019t make any difference to the people it is intended to target.\nHow is the CTU\u2019s strike going to help my son? Students should be a priority, and by having a strike we are telling our students the opposite. They are already experiencing the negative effects of the school budget cuts. Why should we be hurting their education more?\nI know I\u2019m not the only parent feeling frustrated that union leaders offhandedly declared a one-day strike when we\u2019re the ones with the ultimate responsibility to make sure our children are safe and occupied that day. It makes it harder for me to take the CTU\u2019s messages seriously.\nSetting Our Sights on Springfield\nWe have real problems here in Illinois. For years, the state has shortchanged all schools of the money they need to educate children well, and has recently taken funds from the schools that need it most. Our legislators haven\u2019t shown the courage it takes to create real solutions, like a progressive income tax, that would bring in the revenue we need to fund schools well enough to do the job we ask of them.\nThe money situation for state higher education is at least as bad, maybe worse. State colleges and universities haven\u2019t seen money from Springfield in eight months. While the larger schools are tapping private funds to stay afloat, the smaller regional schools, like Eastern Illinois and Chicago State University, are in serious financial danger.\nAt the Illinois Institute of Technology, the neediest college students are being asked to give back state grants for school because our governor can\u2019t work with the legislature to create a budget. This makes me sick to my stomach, because I relied on the same grant to earn my bachelor\u2019s degree. Without that state support, I wouldn\u2019t be in graduate school today.\nAll of us\u2014parents, teachers, taxpayers\u2014need to look beyond Chicago and set our sights on solutions in Springfield. We know our governor doesn\u2019t want to hear what we have to say. It will take a strong, united front and a smart, long-haul strategy to make real change in our state. A one-day strike is not a long-term solution.\nI hope the CTU\u2019s leaders will stop playing the fool and take steps to regain the trust of parents and the community so we can all work together to solve the very real problems of education in our state.\nPhoto by Spencer Tweedy, CC-licensed.\nBetter Conversation, Bruce Rauner, Chicago, Chicago Public Schools, Chicago State University, Chicago Teachers Union, CTU, Eastern Illinois, Frissia Sanchez, Higher Education, Illinois, Latino Voice, Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Parent Voice, Springfield\nWhat\u2019s the Point of the Chicago Teachers Union Walkout This Friday?\nThe Chicago Teachers Union Is Putting Politics Before the Needs of Students\nThis Educator's Christmas Wish for Teachers in Chicago",

        "title": "Lesser Known 11th Century Byzantines - Part 1: John the Orphanotrophos and his Brothers - Eileen Stephenson",
        "raw_content": "I have mentioned a number of relatively well-known 11th century Byzantines in my previous blogs \u2013 the Empresses Zoe and Theodora; Constantine IX Monomachos; the writers Michael Psellos, Michael Attaleiates and John Skylitzes; Nikephoros Byennios; and others. Now, I will turn your attention to some of the lesser-known individuals of that century. These men and women played important roles in the empire\u2019s evolution and were prominent at the time, but are often only recalled as footnotes to history. Their actions for good, or more often for ill, bring to mind this quote from Shakespeare (Julius Caesar): The evil that men do lives after them, the good is oft interred with their bones.\nSo, I start with John the Orphanotrophus (the Orphan Master), a eunuch who worked his way to great power, and kept control through terror. His family was from Paphlogonia in Anatolia that had at least five sons and one daughter. John and two of his brothers (George and Constantine) were castrated, while Niketas and Michael were \u201cbearded\u201d. Personally, I can\u2019t imagine why a father would have three of his sons castrated, but some of what I\u2019ve read seems to imply that it may have been some sort of punishment for actions made by the boys\u2019 father.\nIn any case, young John must have made his way to Constantinople where employment for eunuchs would have been easily available at the Great Palace. All of his brothers, as well as a sister and her spouse, Stephen, eventually joined him there. The first historical mention I have seen of him was in John Skylitzes\u2019 history, where he is called a \u201cprotonotarios\u201d, a position which can be translated at 1st scribe so I assume he was some sort of secretary. At the time, he was working for the Emperor Basil II.\nJohn must have been an ingratiating sort since he rose up through the ranks of eunuchs during the reign of Basil II and Constantine VIII, and was awarded the title of Orphanotrophos, which is how the historians of the period referred to him. I found it interesting in my reading that he was always referred to by his title rather than by his name, somewhat akin to \u201che who must not be named\u201d in the Harry Potter books.\nEmpress Zoe had inherited the throne from her father, Constantine VIII, who had married her to a distant cousin, Romanos, shortly before he died.It was during the reign of Romanos III Argyros and Empress Zoe that the Orphanotrophos made his big move. The marriage was not happy and Zoe\u2019s lustful eye wandered, landing on the handsome brother of the Orphanotrophos, Michael. The three of them conspired to assassinate Romanos, first with an unsuccessful attempt at poison, before finally making an end of the unfortunate husband by drowning him in his bath. Before the dead man\u2019s body was cold, Zoe and Michael were wed on that very same day.\nZoe and her new husband, Emperor Michael IV, had an all too brief honeymoon before Zoe found herself increasingly confined to the gynecaeum and spied on by the Orphaonotrophos\u2019 minions. Michael\u2019s visits to her bed became infrequent until they all but ended. Michael\u2019s brothers were given new positions, often with access to massive amounts of the empire\u2019s money that they confiscated for themselves. Zoe became convinced that it was the Orphanotrophos who was the cause of the estrangement between her and her husband and made a failed attempt to poison the eunuch (the image above is from the History of John Skylitzes and is of Zoe\u2019s attempted poisoning) .\nAt the same time, many of the dynatoi of the empire were disgusted by what happened to Romanos and the wealth these Paphlogonians transferred from the Treasury into their own pockets. Rebellious conspiracies began to abound. Even speaking against Michael IV without scheming became a criminal offense. The great General Constantine Dalassenus and his son-in-law, Constantine Ducas, were among those confined for years for simply speaking against Michael. Another general, Constantine Diogenes was imprisoned and apparently tortured before he committed suicide. Others were tonsured and forced into a monastery or exiled to remote locations. The Orphanotrophos had soon frightened most of the dynatoi into submission to his family\u2019s rule.\nFrom a broader perspective, other problems occurred. A disastrous change in tax collecting laws led to rebellion in the empire\u2019s Bulgarian provinces which likely cost more to put down than whatever the increase in collections might have taken in. In addition, while the General George Maniakes led a successful expedition against Moslem invaders in Sicily, almost wresting the island back from them, he had been forced to bring along Michael IV\u2019s incompetent brother-in-law, Stephen who bungled his part and allowed the Moslems to escape. This Stephen carries much of the weight of responsibility for the permanent loss of Sicily as a Byzantine possession. After a vigorous reprimand from Maniakes, the humiliated Stephen returned to Constantinople where he accused the general of conspiracy. Maniakes was arrested and imprisoned, and Sicily, along with a large part of the empire\u2019s treasury, was shortly lost to the Moslems.\nMichael IV ruled until 1041, still a young man of about 30 or 31, but ill with epilepsy and probably something else \u2013 dropsy was the diagnosis at the time. He was succeeded by his nephew, the son of the hapless Stephen, and also named Michael. This foolish young man thought he could rule without the help of the cunning Orphanotrophos and soon exiled that uncle to the remote island of Lesbos where he died a couple of years later. It was a miserable end to a man who had made so many other lives at least as miserable.\nPrevPreviousThe Three Nikephoros Bryennios \u2013 Ever In the Shadow of the Comneni\nNextLesser Known 11th Century Byzantines Part 2 \u2013 Eudokia MakrembolitissaNext",

        "raw_content": "An online education provides the opportunity to study more subjects and reach out to programs that are not available in the immediate area.\nDistance learning is much more flexible than traditional styles of classroom education. Students who need to take other classes or work can do class-work whenever they have a free moment instead of being restricted to a rigid schedule.\nStudents who enroll in classes with online education obtain a wider range of networking opportunities. Instead of being limited to networking in the local area, distance learning enables students to make connections with a more diverse range of people.\nOnline education enables students to work at their own pace in many circumstances. The requirements are not as strict and, typically, give a range of due dates when the work needs to be submitted.\nThe schedules for distance learning are more open and allow for students, parents, and professionals to take the classes whenever it fits into their schedule. This is beneficial for classroom education that requires students to schedule work and childcare around the class time.\nOnline classes typically cost less than an education in a classroom environment. There are fewer space limitations and materials required for each student and the savings are passed on from the educational institution to each student.\nA huge advantage of getting an online education is that there is no need to travel to and from class every single day. Someone who doesn\u2019t drive or want to spend money on the costs of public transportation every single day will likely choose to get an online education over the traditional classroom.\nSelection Of Professors\nDistance learning enables students to learn from some of the most prestigious professors and guest speakers in each field.\nNo Classroom Sitting\nSitting in the classroom is not the best way for every student to learn. A student may learn better at his own pace and in a different format than traditional schooling options offer.\nOnline classes are just as, if not more, effective at teaching students than the traditional classroom style of learning.\nVia: elearncollege.com\nDistance Education Infograpic Distance Learning Benefits Infographic Distance Learning infographic Modern Learner Infographic Online Learners Infographic",

Stephens said, \u201cThe proposition that\u2019s being floated here [is] that private businesses, including banks, are supposed to make up their own lists of terrorists. Imagine, actually, what that would do, if a bank did that.\u201d\n\u201cScores of errors\u201d\nThe Arab Bank described the trial as \u201cinfected by scores of errors.\u201d\nThe district court had excluded all of the bank\u2019s witnesses who were prepared to testify to the character of the Saudi Committee as a lawful humanitarian aid organization supporting Palestinians impoverished during the second intifada.\n\u201cThe jury never heard that the Saudi Committee\u2019s humanitarian purpose was confirmed by senior US government officials, as well as other nations, and it was never designated [a terrorist organization] by the US,\u201d the Arab Bank wrote in a statement distributed to the press.\nWhile none of the defense\u2019s witnesses were permitted to testify to the charitable nature of the Saudi Committee, prosecutors brought two witnesses in that claimed the organization had the explicit intention to finance terrorism.\nMatthew Levitt, a fellow of the pro-Israel think tank Washington Institute for Near East Policy, stated that the organization\u2019s \u201cprimary purpose\u201d was to divert donations to the families of \u201cterrorist operatives,\u201d according to the defense\u2019s records. Levitt also invoked former US Secretary of State Colin Powell who \u201cdescribed [martyr] payments as incentivizing terrorism.\u201d\nArieh Spitzen, former head of the Israeli military\u2019s Department of Palestinian Affairs, testified that the primary function of the Saudi Committee \u201cwas to support the al-Quds intifada,\u201d referring to the Palestinian uprising that erupted in September 2000.\nDefendants had requested to bring in historian Robert Lacey, but were denied on the grounds that he is not \u201can expert on terrorism or terrorism financing.\u201d\nLacey was going to testify that the Saudi Committee was formed in 2000 as a humanitarian organization to \u201cto provide medical, educational and general relief assistance\u201d to Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip, the defense states in a document emailed to The Electronic Intifada.\nCourt sanctions\nThe civil suit against Arab Bank was filed in 2004 and initially represented more than 6,500 plaintiffs \u2014 most of whom were Israeli nationals filing the suit under the Alien Tort Statute, which permits non-US citizens to sue in a US federal court for violations of international law.\nBut last summer the judge threw out the ATS claims, leaving approximately three hundred US citizens as plaintiffs.\nThe Arab Bank\u2019s defense was significantly hampered by a federal judge\u2019s decision to sanction the bank after it refused to turn over some of its client files. The defense argued that doing so would have been a breach of foreign banking secrecy laws.\nThe sanctions passed down by Judge Nina Gershon in April 2013 included barring the Arab Bank from explaining to the jury why it did not produce those records or any evidence that it was adhering to foreign bank secrecy laws.\nThe sanctions also included an instruction to the jury that it \u201cmay, but are not required to, infer\u201d that the bank provided financial services to Hamas, and that it did so knowingly.\nThe Arab Bank is headquartered in Jordan, a close ally with the United States, and with the permission of Israel opened its branches in the West Bank and Gaza Strip following the signing of the Oslo accords in the mid-1990s.\nAccording to the bank, the Government of Israel remits the funds collected on behalf of the Palestinian Authority into an account at the Arab Bank.\nVerdict \u201cinevitable\u201d\nIn its written statement to the press, the Arab Bank asserts that any trial conducted with the court\u2019s sanctions \u201cwould be nothing more than a show trial,\u201d and that a guilty verdict against the bank was \u201cinevitable.\u201d\nLast year, the Arab Bank petitioned the Supreme Court, asking for the trial to be dismissed entirely. But the court rejected the petition and kept the sanctions in place.\nWhile reviewing the case, the Supreme Court had invited the Obama administration to submit its views; the State Department criticized the sanctions but said the case did not warrant Supreme Court intervention.\nThe decision may set a precedent impacting similar civil suits pending in federal courts.\nA US appeals court reinstated on Monday a lawsuit against National Westminster Bank by other victims of attacks in Israel allegedly orchestrated by Hamas.\nIn the decision, a judge wrote that the Anti-Terrorism Act only required plaintiffs to prove that the bank was \u201cdeliberately indifferent\u201d to whether they were providing support to Hamas.\nEditor\u2019s note: The headline and lede of this article originally stated that the Arab Bank was found guilty; the language has been changed to state that the bank was found liable for providing services to a designated foreign terrorist organization.\nArieh Spitzen\nShand Stephens\nmaterial support law\nantiterrorism act\nExcellent assessment as usual\nPermalink Cindy Wilmore replied on Fri, 09/26/2014 - 15:44\nExcellent assessment as usual from all the journalists at Electronic Intifada.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Civil War Trust Preserving More of \u201cThe Most Fought Over Ground in America\u201d at Brandy Station\nWar Poetry \u2192\nA Rebel Far From Home\nPosted on March 7, 2015 by Derek Maxfield\nBATAVIA \u2014 A little Confederate battle flag caught my eye as I drove down Harvester Avenue next to the historic Batavia Cemetery in upstate New York a few years ago. I can remember thinking, \u201cNo, it must be a prank. We are too far north.\u201d Of course, I had to stop.\nGrave of Maj. Philemon Tracy\nIt was no joke, as I soon found out. The bronze military plaque read \u201cPhilemon Tracy.\u201d A Major in the 6th Georgia Infantry, Tracy died in 1862 \u2014 during the war. The domed tablet stone standing behind told me little more. This was a mystery I stood and pondered for some time. \u201cWhat is he doing here if he was from Georgia?\u201d Then the modern world intruded rudely. Beckoned away by the cares of my world, I was resolved to return to the mystery.\nAs with so many things, the best of intentions sometimes affords little. However, the mystery was thrust upon me again in an unexpected way. The Batavia Cemetery Association was hosting its semi-annual fundraiser \u2013 a ghost walk \u2013 and the man who normally played the part of the ghost of Philemon Tracy was ill and could not be there. One of the most famous graves in the cemetery, the organizers really wanted someone to play that particular part. I was happy to help, I told them, but I did not have a Confederate Major\u2019s uniform. After searching in vain to borrow one from one of my many reeanctor friends, I offered another alternative: I would play the part of Tracy\u2019s uncle Phineas Tracy \u2013 a distinguished gentleman of the day. The garb of a Victorian gentleman I did have. I would play the part of the uncle who would tell the story of his nephew; a good compromise, I thought. They agreed.\nPhineas Tracy at Batavia Cemetery\nIn preparation for my part, I had the opportunity to unravel the mystery finally. Born in 1831 near Macon, Georgia, Philemon Tracy often spent summers visiting his uncle Phineas in Batavia, NY, to escape the heat of the deep south that time of year. Phineas Tracy was something of an idol to his young nephew. Born in Connecticut, Phineas graduated from Yale in 1806 and entered the law. He removed to the frontier around 1815 and prospered. An anti-Mason candidate for Congress, Tracy was elected to the House of Representatives. Later he was appointed the presiding judge of the Genesee County Court and continued in that capacity until he retired in 1846.\nPhilemon followed his uncle\u2019s example and entered Yale University before returning to Macon where he became editor of the Macon Telegraph for a time. Later he worked in a law firm and was elected to the Georgia State Senate. Professionally, all was clear sailing for Tracy. Personally, as things would develop, life took dimmer turns. One such turn was the tragic loss of his wife Carrie, and the infant she had just delivered.\nWhen the war came Tracy promptly joined the 6th Georgia Infantry. In the spring of 1862 he was with Gen. Joseph Johnston\u2019s army in Virginia, where he was wounded at the Battle of Seven Pines, in the shadow of Richmond. Hit in the face, leg and hip, he was out of action for quite some time. He returned to Georgia to recover.\nIn September 1862 Tracy heard rumblings of Gen. Lee\u2019s intention to invade the north. Having also fallen at Seven Pines, Gen. Johnston\u2019s command had been turned over to Robert E. Lee, who styled his army the Army of Northern Virginia. Tracy raced north to join Lee and his men.\nTracy arrived at Sharpsburg, Maryland on the evening of Sept. 16th, where Lee\u2019s army was concentrating. Facing them for the impending conflagration was Union Maj. Gen. George McClellan and the Army of the Potomac. When the action opened early the next morning, Tracy was among the first to fall. He was struck by a bullet in the thigh, severing the femoral artery and was soon dead. He would be buried on the battlefield.\nWord of his nephew\u2019s fate at the Battle of Antietam reached Judge Phineas Tracy in Batavia soon after the battle. Wasting no time, he rushed a team to Maryland to find and recover Philemon\u2019s body, which was laid to rest quietly in the Batavia Cemetery. Phineas was worried that Union-minded folks might take exception to having a rebel in their midst, so he took pains to hide the facts from neighbors. In 1876, Phineas himself would come to rest just yards away from his Confederate kin.\n5 Responses to A Rebel Far From Home\ndocwylie says:\nGreat story, Prof. Maxfield! I am very familiar with Major Tracy\u2019s final resting places as the first event I did as a Union Army reenactor was the rededication of Major Tracy\u2019s grave in 1989. We gathered, both Union and Confederate reenactors to hoor a man who fought and died for what he believed. Now, years later, when I am in Batavia I usually try to stop by to pay my respects to Philemon Tracy.\nJust lovely. Thanks for your interpretation of this tragedy\u2013tiny in the scope of things, but not so to those who loved him.\nNice Job Derek, love the fact you persevered and researched to find the details about the soldier.\nDebbie Slavens says:\nI love this account of Philemon and his uncle Phineas. It is a beautiful picture of familial love overshadowing politics and sides drawn up for battle\u2026\nVery interesting how peoples\u2019 lives cross. But there has to be more to the story. How did Philemon come to reside in Georgia? What persuaded him to join the Confederate army with roots so deep in the North and having attended Yale? The account given here is historical; is a more human account available from family documents? i suspect it is, Philemon having been a Macon Telegraph editor. I encourage Professor Maxwell to give us the \u201crest of the story.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "IDC Forecasts Worldwide Spending on 3D Printing to be Nearly $12 Billion in 2018\nJan 11, 2018 | Analysis, Consultants, Industrial, Uncategorized\nFRAMINGHAM, Mass., January 10, 2018 \u2013 A new update to the Worldwide Semiannual 3D Printing Spending Guidefrom International Data Corporation (IDC) shows global spending on 3D printing (including hardware, materials, software, and services) will be nearly $12.0 billion in 2018, an increase of 19.9% over 2017. By 2021, IDC expects worldwide spending to be nearly $20.0 billion with a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.5%.\nTogether, 3D printers and materials will account for roughly two thirds of the worldwide spending total throughout the forecast, reaching $6.9 billion and $6.7 billion respectively in 2021. Services spending will trail slightly behind, reaching $5.5 billion in 2021 and led by on-demand parts services and systems integration services. Purchases of 3DP software will grow more slowly than the overall market with a five-year CAGR of 18.6%.\nDiscrete manufacturing will be the dominant industry for 3D printing, delivering more than half of all worldwide spending throughout the 2017-2021 forecast. Healthcare providers will be the second largest industry with a spending total of nearly $1.3 billion in 2018, followed by education ($974 million) and consumer ($831 million). By 2021, IDC expects professional services and retail to move ahead of the consumer segment. The industries that will see the fastest growth in 3D printing spending over the five-year forecast are the resource industries (38.4% CAGR) and healthcare (35.4% CAGR).\n\u201c3D printing solutions have moved well beyond prototyping, to become prevalent within and across multiple industries,\u201d said Marianne D\u2019Aquila, research manager, Customer Insights and Analysis at IDC. \u201cParts for new products, aftermarket parts, dental objects, and medical support objects will continue to see significant growth opportunities over the next five years as 3D printing goes more mainstream. The healthcare industry is also poised to double its share of spend through 2021 as the benefits of cost-effective customized printing continue to be realized.\u201d\nThe leading use cases for 3D printing are prototypes, aftermarket parts, and parts for new products. As the primary use cases for the discrete manufacturing industry, these three use cases will account for 44% of worldwide spending in 2018. By 2021, dental objects and medical support objects will be the fourth and fifth largest use cases, largely driven by the healthcare provider industry. The two use cases that will see the fastest spending growth \u2013 tissue/organ/bone (56.6% CAGR) and dental objects (36.9% CAGR) \u2013 will also be driven by healthcare provider spending.\n\u201cAdvancements and breakthroughs on the technology side are fueling wider adoption and greater utilization of 3D printing systems across a range of industries,\u201d said Tim Greene, research director, Hardcopy Peripherals and 3D Printing. \u201cEven though there are amazing innovations nearly every day in the way 3D printers are used in key industries, including automotive, aerospace, and medical, we believe that we\u2019re still just scratching the surface of the potential for 3D printing as an enabler of digital transformation.\u201d\nThe United States will be the region with the largest spending total in 2018 ($4.1 billion) followed by Western Europe ($3.5 billion). Together, these two regions will provide nearly two thirds of all 3D printing spending throughout the forecast. China will be the third largest region with more than $1.5 billion in spending this year, followed by Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), the Middle East and Africa (MEA), and the rest of Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan). The regions that will see the fastest growth over the 2017-2021 forecast period are Latin America (27.2% CAGR) and CEE (26.0% CAGR). However, six of the nine geographic regions will experience compound annual growth rates greater than 20% over the five-year forecast period.\nIDC\u2019s Spending Guides provide a granular view of key technology markets from a regional, vertical industry, use case, buyer, and technology perspective.

        "raw_content": "For an article on the use of jurisdiction to mean a state or country, see Jurisdiction (area).\nFind sources: \"Jurisdiction\" \u2013 news \u00b7 newspapers \u00b7 books \u00b7 scholar \u00b7 JSTOR (July 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)\nJurisdiction (from the Latin ius, iuris meaning \"law\" and dicere meaning \"to speak\") is the practical authority granted to a legal body to administer justice within a defined field of responsibility, e.g., Michigan tax law. In federations like the United States, areas of jurisdiction apply to local, state, and federal levels; e.g. the court has jurisdiction to apply federal law.\nColloquially it is used to refer to the geographical area to which such authority applies, e.g. the court has jurisdiction over all of Colorado. The legal term refers only to the granted authority, not to a geographical area.\nJurisdiction draws its substance from international law, conflict of laws, constitutional law, and the powers of the executive and legislative branches of government to allocate resources to best serve the needs of society.\nInternational dimensionEdit\nInternational laws and treaties provide agreements which nations agree to be bound to.\nPolitical issueEdit\nSupranational organizations provide mechanisms whereby disputes between nations may be resolved through arbitration or mediation. When a country is recognized as de jure, it is an acknowledgment by the other de jure nations that the country has sovereignty and the right to exist.\nHowever, it is often at the discretion of each nation whether to co-operate or participate. If a nation does agree to participate in activities of the supranational bodies and accept decisions, the nation is giving up its sovereign authority and thereby allocating power to these bodies.\nInsofar as these bodies or nominated individuals may resolve disputes through judicial or quasi-judicial means, or promote treaty obligations in the nature of laws, the power ceded to these bodies cumulatively represents its own jurisdiction. But no matter how powerful each body may appear to be, the extent to which any of their judgments may be enforced, or proposed treaties and conventions may become, or remain, effective within the territorial boundaries of each nation is a political matter under the sovereign control each nation.\nInternational and municipalEdit\nThe fact that international organizations, courts and tribunals have been created raises the difficult question of how to co-ordinate their activities with those of national courts. If the two sets of bodies do not have concurrent jurisdiction but, as in the case of the International Criminal Court (ICC), the relationship is expressly based on the principle of complementarity, i.e., the international court is subsidiary or complementary to national courts, the difficulty is avoided. But if the jurisdiction claimed is concurrent, or as in the case of International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), the international tribunal is to prevail over national courts, the problems are more difficult to resolve politically.\nThe idea of universal jurisdiction is fundamental to the operation of global organizations such as the United Nations and the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which jointly assert the benefit of maintaining legal entities with jurisdiction over a wide range of matters of significance to nations (the ICJ should not be confused with the ICC and this version of \"universal jurisdiction\" is not the same as that enacted in the War Crimes Law (Belgium) which is an assertion of extraterritorial jurisdiction that will fail to gain implementation in any other state under the standard provisions of public policy). Under Article 34 Statute of the ICJ[1] only nations may be parties in cases before the Court and, under Article 36, the jurisdiction comprises all cases which the parties refer to it and all matters specially provided for in the Charter of the United Nations or in treaties and conventions in force. But, to invoke the jurisdiction in any given case, all the parties have to accept the prospective judgment as binding. This reduces the risk of wasting the Court's time.\nDespite the safeguards built into the constitutions of most of these organizations, courts and tribunals, the concept of universal jurisdiction is controversial among those nations which prefer unilateral to multilateral solutions through the use of executive or military authority, sometimes described as realpolitik-based diplomacy.\nWithin other international contexts, there are intergovernmental organizations such as the World Trade Organization (WTO) that have socially and economically significant dispute resolution functions but, again, even though their jurisdiction may be invoked to hear the cases, the power to enforce their decisions is at the will of the nations affected, save that the WTO is permitted to allow retaliatory action by successful nations against those nations found to be in breach of international trade law. At a regional level, groups of nations can create political and legal bodies with sometimes complicated patchworks of overlapping provisions detailing the jurisdictional relationships between the member states and providing for some degree of harmonization between their national legislative and judicial functions, for example, the European Union and African Union both have the potential to become federated nations although the political barriers to such unification in the face of entrenched nationalism will be very difficult to overcome. Each such group may form transnational institutions with declared legislative or judicial powers. For example, in Europe, the European Court of Justice has been given jurisdiction as the ultimate appellate court to the member states on issues of European law. This jurisdiction is entrenched and its authority could only be denied by a member nation if that member nation asserts its sovereignty and withdraws from the union.\nThe standard treaties and conventions leave the issue of implementation to each nation, i.e. there is no general rule in international law that treaties have direct effect in municipal law, but some nations, by virtue of their membership of supranational bodies, allow the direct incorporation of rights or enact legislation to honor their international commitments. Hence, citizens in those nations can invoke the jurisdiction of local courts to enforce rights granted under international law wherever there is incorporation. If there is no direct effect or legislation, there are two theories to justify the courts incorporating international into municipal law:\nThis theory characterizes international and municipal law as a single legal system with municipal law subordinate to international law. Hence, in the Netherlands, all treaties and the orders of international organizations are effective without any action being required to convert international into municipal law. This has an interesting consequence because treaties that limit or extend the powers of the Dutch government are automatically considered a part of their constitutional law, for example, the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. In nations adopting this theory, the local courts automatically accept jurisdiction to adjudicate on lawsuits relying on international law principles.\nThis theory regards international and municipal law as separate systems so that the municipal courts can only apply international law either when it has been incorporated into municipal law or when the courts incorporate international law on their own motion. In the United Kingdom, for example, a treaty is not effective until it has been incorporated at which time it becomes enforceable in the courts by any private citizen, where appropriate, even against the UK Government. Otherwise the courts have a discretion to apply international law where it does not conflict with statute or the common law. The constitutional principle of parliamentary supremacy permits the legislature to enact any law inconsistent with any international treaty obligations even though the government is a signatory to those treaties.\nIn the United States, the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution makes all treaties that have been ratified under the authority of the United States and customary international law a part of the \"Supreme Law of the Land\" (along with the Constitution itself and acts of Congress passed pursuant to it) (U.S. Const.art. VI Cl. 2) and, as such, the law of the land is binding on the federal government as well as on state and local governments. According to the Supreme Court of the United States, the treaty power authorizes Congress to legislate under the Necessary and Proper Clause in areas beyond those specifically conferred on Congress (Missouri v. Holland, 252 U.S. 416 (1920)).\nThis concerns the relationships both between courts in different jurisdictions, and between courts within the same jurisdiction. The usual legal doctrine under which questions of jurisdiction are decided is termed forum non conveniens.\nTo deal with the issue of forum shopping, nations are urged to adopt more positive rules on conflict of laws. The Hague Conference and other international bodies have made recommendations on jurisdictional matters, but litigants with the encouragement of lawyers on a contingent fee continue to shop for forums.\nSupranationalEdit\nAt a supranational level, countries have adopted a range of treaty and convention obligations to relate the right of individual litigants to invoke the jurisdiction of national courts and to enforce the judgments obtained. For example, the member nations of the EEC signed the Brussels Convention in 1968 and, subject to amendments as new nations joined, it represents the default law for all twenty-seven Member States of what is now termed the European Union on the relationships between the courts in the different countries. In addition, the Lugano Convention (1988) binds the European Union and the European Free Trade Association.\nIn effect from 1 March 2002, all the member states of the EU except Denmark accepted Council Regulation (EC) 44/2001, which makes major changes to the Brussels Convention and is directly effective in the member nations. Council Regulation (EC) 44/2001 now also applies as between the rest of the EU Member States and Denmark due to an agreement reached between the European Community and Denmark.[2] In some legal areas, at least, the CACA enforcement of foreign judgments is now more straightforward. At a national level, the traditional rules still determine jurisdiction over persons who are not domiciled or habitually resident in the European Union or the Lugano area.\nMany nations are subdivided into states or provinces (i.e. a subnational \"state\"). In a federation \u2014 as can be found in Australia, Brazil, India, Mexico and the United States) \u2014 such subunits will exercise jurisdiction through the court systems as defined by the executives and legislatures.\nWhen the jurisdictions of government entities overlap one another\u2014for example between a state and the federation to which it belongs\u2014their jurisdiction is a shared or concurrent jurisdiction.\nOtherwise, one government entity will have exclusive jurisdiction over the shared area. When jurisdiction is concurrent, one government entity may have supreme jurisdiction over the other entity if their laws conflict. If the executive or legislative powers within the jurisdiction are not restricted, or have only limited restrictions, these government branches have plenary power such as a national policing power. Otherwise, an enabling act grants only limited or enumerated powers.\nChild custody cases in the U.S. are a prime example of jurisdictional dilemmas caused by different states under a federal alignment. When parents and children are in different states, there is the possibility of different state court orders over-ruling each other. The U.S. solved this problem by adopting the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act. The act established criteria for determining which state has primary jurisdiction.[3]\nMain article: Federal jurisdiction (United States)\nThe primary distinctions between areas of jurisdiction are codified at a national level. As a common law system, jurisdiction is conceptually divided between jurisdiction over the subject matter of a case (called in rem) and jurisdiction over the person (called in personam).[4] A court may use jurisdiction over property located within the perimeter of its powers without regard to personal jurisdiction over the litigants; this is an example of in rem jurisdiction.\nA court whose subject matter jurisdiction is limited to certain types of controversies (for example, suits in admiralty or suits where the monetary amount sought is less than a specified sum, is sometimes referred to as a court of special jurisdiction or court of limited jurisdiction.\nA court whose subject matter is not limited to certain types of controversy is referred to as a court of general jurisdiction. In the U.S. states, each state has courts of general jurisdiction; most states also have some courts of limited jurisdiction. Federal courts (those operated by the federal government) are courts of limited jurisdiction. Federal jurisdiction is divided into federal question jurisdiction and diversity jurisdiction. The United States district courts may hear only cases arising under federal law and treaties, cases involving ambassadors, admiralty cases, controversies between states or between a state and citizens of another state, lawsuits involving citizens of different states, and against foreign states and citizens.\nCertain courts, particularly the United States Supreme Court and most state supreme courts, have discretionary jurisdiction, meaning that they can choose which cases to hear from among all the cases presented on appeal. Such courts generally only choose to hear cases that would settle important and controversial points of law. Though these courts have discretion to deny cases they otherwise could adjudicate, no court has the discretion to hear a case that falls outside of its subject matter jurisdiction.\nIt is also necessary to distinguish between original jurisdiction and appellate jurisdiction. A court of original jurisdiction has the power to hear cases as they are first initiated by a plaintiff, while a court of appellate jurisdiction may only hear an action after the court of original jurisdiction (or a lower appellate court) has heard the matter. For example, in United States federal courts, the United States district courts have original jurisdiction over a number of different matters (as mentioned above), and the United States court of appeals have appellate jurisdiction over matters appealed from the district courts. The U.S. Supreme Court, in turn, has appellate jurisdiction (of a discretionary nature) over the Courts of Appeals, as well as the state supreme courts, by means of writ of certiorari.\nHowever, in a special class of cases, the U.S. Supreme Court has the power to exercise original jurisdiction. Under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1251, the Supreme court has original and exclusive jurisdiction over controversies between two or more states, and original (but non-exclusive) jurisdiction over cases involving officials of foreign states, controversies between the federal government and a state, actions by a state against the citizens of another state or foreign country.\nAs a practical example of court jurisdiction, as of 2013 Utah has five types of courts, each for different legal matters and different physical territories.[5] One-hundred-and-eight judges oversee Justice Courts, which handle traffic and parking citations, misdemeanor crimes, and most small claims cases. Seventy-one judges preside over District Courts, which deal with civil cases exceeding small claims limits, probate law, felony criminal cases, divorce and child custody cases, some small claims, and appeals from Justice Courts. Twenty-eight judges handle Juvenile Court, which oversees most people under 18 years old who are accused of a crime, as well as cases of alleged child abuse or neglect; serious crimes committed by 16 or 17 year old persons may be referred to the District Courts. Seven judges in the Appeals Court hear most criminal appeals from District Courts, all appeals from juvenile court and all domestic/divorce cases from District Court, as well as some cases transferred to them by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court seats five judges who hear appeals on first-degree felonies (the most serious) including capital crimes, as well as all civil cases from District Court (excepting divorce/domestic cases). The Supreme Court also oversees cases involving interpretation of the state Constitution, election matters, judicial conduct, and alleged misconduct by lawyers. This example shows how matters arising in the same physical territory might be seen in different courts. A minor traffic infraction originating in Orem, Utah is handled by the Orem Justice Court. However, a second-degree felony arrest and a first-degree felony arrest in Orem would be under the jurisdiction of the District Court in Provo, Utah. If both the minor traffic offense and the felony arrests resulted in guilty verdicts, the traffic conviction could be appealed to the District Court in Provo, while the second-degree felony appeal would be heard by the Appeals Court in Salt Lake City and the first-degree felony appeal would be heard by the Supreme Court. Similarly for civil matters, a small claims case arising in Orem would probably be heard in the Orem Justice Court, while a divorce filed by an Orem resident would be heard by the District Court in Provo. The above examples apply only to cases of Utah state law; any case under Federal jurisdiction would be handled by a different court system. All Federal cases arising in Utah are under the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Utah, headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, and would be heard in one of three Federal courthouses.\nColloquiallyEdit\nThe word \"jurisdiction\" is also used, especially in informal writing, to refer to a state or political subdivision generally, or to its government, rather than to its legal authority.[6]\nFranchise jurisdictionEdit\nIn the history of English common law, a jurisdiction could be held as a form of property (or more precisely an incorporeal hereditament) called a franchise. Traditional franchise jurisdictions of various powers were held by municipal corporations, religious houses, guilds, early universities, Welsh Marches, and Counties Palatine. Types of franchise courts included Courts Baron, Courts Leet, merchant courts, and the Stannary Courts which dealt with disputes involving the tin miners of Cornwall. The original royal charters of the American colonies included broad grants of franchise jurisdiction along with other governmental powers to corporations or individuals, as did the charters for many other colonial companies such as the British East India Company and British South Africa Company. Analogous jurisdiction existed in medieval times on the European Continent. Over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries, franchise jurisdictions were largely eliminated. Several formerly important franchise courts were not officially abolished until Courts Act of 1971.\nImmunity from prosecution (international law)\nLabor unions in the United States \u2013 a different use of the word jurisdiction\nLaw enforcement agency \u2013 a different use of the word jurisdiction\nRasul v.

        "raw_content": "Great Siege of Scarborough Castle\nThe entire west wall, roof, and interior floors of Scarborough Castle's keep were destroyed in 1645 by artillery bombardment during the English Civil War.\nThe Great Siege [a] of Scarborough Castle was a major conflict for control of one of England's most important stone fortresses during the English Civil War (1642\u20131651), fought between the Roundheads or Parliamentarians, and the Royalists loyal to King Charles I (reigned 1625\u20131649). In February 1645, Parliamentarians laid siege to the castle. For five months, they bombarded it, destroying most of the keep, and engaged in bloody fighting before the defenders finally surrendered.\nThis was a significant though not permanent victory. There was a second, far less bloody and destructive, siege later in 1648 when the new garrison switched sides. The castle finally came under Parliamentarian control in 1649, and remained so until the Restoration (1660). (The castle actually changed hands seven times between 1642 and 1648.[1])\n1.1 Royalist stronghold\n2.1 Bombardment of the castle\nEarly in the English Civil War, Scarborough, its castle and strategic supply port were first held (in September 1642) for Parliament by Sir Hugh Cholmley. In March 1643, he was persuaded to change sides.[2] Cholmley actually lost the castle in a bloodless takeover by his own cousin, Captain Browne Bushell, in the same month while away at York, but persuaded him to give it back.[3] [4] Cholmley ordered the castle to be refortified, including the establishment of the South Steel Battery for artillery.[5]\nRoyalist stronghold[edit]\nAfter March 1643, although Cholmley was the only Royalist commander at work in east and north Yorkshire, his forces felt so secure at Scarborough that they could move almost freely throughout the region, targeting Parliamentarian positions. In May, Cholmley's cavalry moved north of Whitby, 20 miles away, and pillaged the estate of the Earl of Mulgrave, a loyal Parliamentarian. In June, Cholmley captured the marketplace at Beverley, some 30 miles from the castle, and from September to October 1643 he was present at the unsuccessful second Siege of Hull.[6]\nThough Cholmley's activities were a nuisance to the Parliamentarians, these victories were never decisive, and Parliament considered the King's south-western strongholds far more important targets.[7] However, piracy ensured that Scarborough became a priority. The port was a safe haven for Royalist ships which attacked and plundered ships bringing coal to London, which would become a more pressing concern as winter approached.[8] The port was also a safe place for arms to be imported for the Royalist armies.\nThe Royalist failure at Hull and the entry of the Scottish Covenanters into the war on Parliament's side in late 1643 resulted in a run of Parliamentarian victories across Yorkshire. On 2 July 1644, the Parliamentarians and Covenanters won a great victory at the Battle of Marston Moor. The next day, the Marquess of Newcastle, the King's captain-general in the north, and several of his senior officers, took ships from Scarborough and went into exile on the continent, abandoning the fight. Two weeks later, the city of York surrendered. Scarborough was left the most important Royalist garrison in Yorkshire, but many of Cholmley's garrison deserted and the castle fell into disrepair.\nIn August, Lord Fairfax's Parliamentarian force reached the edge of the town. Cholmley bought time to upgrade the castle defences by opening surrender negotiations, an act that would allow him to hold out for a year.[2]\nOn 18 February 1645, Sir John Meldrum took the town at the head of 1700 men. They suffered almost no casualties.[9] They also took the South Steel Battery[5] and the port, cutting off all escape by land and sea for the Royalists.[2] Cholmley retreated into the castle and refused to give in, so the Parliamentarians prepared for what would be a five-month siege, one of the most bloody of the civil war, with almost continuous fighting.\nParliament was less interested in the castle once the port was theirs, and Meldrum was forced to appeal for extra funds from other ports by raising the spectre of Royalist pirates such as Bushell making devastating raids on Parliamentarian supply lines. Over several weeks, as the funds began to trickle through to Scarborough, allowing Meldrum the forces he needed to attempt an all-out siege, Parliament came around to the idea that besieging the castle should be made a priority.[10] The siege was delayed for six weeks, however, while Meldrum recovered from an astonishing fall over the cliff edge on 24 March. According to Cholmley, he had been trying to retrieve his hat from the wind, though the more likely explanation is that a sudden gust blew him off the cliff. Meanwhile, the garrison initially had access to drinking water from local springs and the \"Well of Our Lady\" near the cliff edge (the other well being dry), which with stockpiled food allowed them to defend the castle for months.[11]\nBombardment of the castle[edit]\nSt. Mary's Church near the castle was on the front line of the civil war siege, sustaining extensive damage from both sides' fire. One side of the church remains a ruin.\nOnce Meldrum resumed command in May, the Parliamentarian forces set up what was then the largest cannon in the country, the \"Cannon Royal\", in the twelfth-century St. Mary's Church below the castle, and proceeded to fire 56\u201365 pounds (25\u201329 kg) cannonballs that pounded the castle's defences.[3] The Royalists replied with their own forward battery under Bushell. The church was extensively damaged over the three days of fighting, and is partly ruined to this day; records report that Cholmley \"did great mischief to St. Mary's\", though it is more likely that the Parliamentarian gun blasts did more damage[12] to a building that was already decaying.[13] The bombardment partially destroyed the castle keep by collapsing the west wall, its roof, the floors and its interior staircase.[14] The outer walls had not been breached however, and the Parliamentarians were unable to take the castle immediately afterwards. Indeed, they had inadvertently supplied the defenders with a large pile of rubble that could be used for cover and ammunition. Meldrum failed to realise until it was too late that the Royalists were cut off from the barbican by the sheer amount of rubble blocking the way, and therefore did not attempt to take the castle entranceway until the Royalists had already broken through and retaken control. Meldrum was only able to take Bushell's battery, where he set up 34-pound cannons to target the castle yard. On the night of 10 May, the Royalists moved against the artillery battery, destroying it, and the Parliamentarians retreated in some disarray, taking heavy casualties. There followed a period of particularly bloody hand-to-hand fighting around the barbican gateway the next day, where neither side took prisoners; ultimately, Meldrum was mortally wounded.[15]\nSurrender[edit]\nBy July 1645, the tide was turning in the Parliamentarians' favour. Sir Matthew Boynton had replaced Meldrum. He preferred to bombard the castle from land and sea, rather than make further infantry assaults. The bombardment, scurvy, lack of water, perhaps a shortage of gunpowder and the threat of starvation meant that the castle's surrender came at noon on 25 July. There were only 25 defenders left fit to fight. Fewer than half the original 500 defenders emerged alive, receiving a less-than-warm welcome from the townsfolk, who had endured great hardship during the siege. Perhaps to bring a quick end to hostilities, Cholmley had received unprecedently good surrender terms, and left for exile in Holland.[16]\nInitially repaired and rearmed for Parliament with a company of 160 to hold the castle and man the gun batteries, the castle returned to Royalist hands when the soldiers went unpaid; Matthew Boynton, its new governor and son of the elder Boynton, declared for the King on 27 July 1648.[17] This led to a second siege which brought the castle back under Parliamentary control on 19 December, with the garrison defeated as much by the oncoming winter as by the Parliamentary forces.[18] Following this, the castle was to have been demolished by an order of July 1649, to prevent it being used as a Royalist stronghold, but a local outcry saved it,[19] along with new fears that resurgent Royalist forces were plotting to retake Scarborough, and the actual appearance of Dutch vessels in the harbour.[20] Instead, it was used as a prison for those deemed enemies of the Commonwealth of England, the country's brief period of republicanism; the shell of the keep survives, minus the west wall. The castle was returned to the crown following the restoration of the monarchy.\n^ Scarborough Castle endured other sieges as a medieval fortress, such as in 1312, 1536, 1557 and 1648, but the siege of 1645 was the longest and bloodiest, hence the use of \"Great\".\n^ Binns 1996, pp. 73\u2013220\n^ a b c Page 1923, pp. 538\u2013560.\n^ a b Goodall 2000, pp. 29\u201331.\n^ Page 1923, pp. 538\u2013560\n^ a b Binns 1996, p. 141.\n^ Binns 1996, pp. 99\u2013101.\n^ Binns 1996, pp. 109\u2013110.\n^ Binns 1996, p. 110\u2013113.\n^ Binns 1996, p. 131.\n^ Binns 1996, p. 141\u2013142; 150\u2013151; 159\u2013160.\n^ Pope 2000, p. 13; Binns 1996, pp. 165\u2013166\n^ Scarborough Community Heritage Initiative 2003, p. 31.\n^ Binns 1996, pp. 157\u2013165, 269.\n^ Goodall 2000, pp. 31\u201332; Page 1923, pp. 538\u2013560.\n^ Binns 1996, pp. 219\u2013220; Page 1923, pp. 538\u2013560.\nBinns, J.

Marketed as the world's first launched wooden roller coaster, the ride is themed to hot rod cars from the 1950s and was manufactured by Rocky Mountain Construction. It was originally planned to debut on opening day in 2016, but a problem with the ride's unique launch system delayed the opening to June 13, 2016. A mechanical issue occurred the following week, resulting in an extended closure that caused Lightning Rod to miss most of its debut season.\nDolly Parton first unveiled plans for a new roller coaster at a Dollywood amusement park presentation on August 7, 2015.[3] Known as Lightning Rod, it would become the first wooden roller coaster in the world to use a launch system instead of a traditional chain lift hill.[3] Featuring a peak speed of 73 mph (117 km/h), it would also become the world's fastest among wooden coasters.[3] The ride, estimated to cost $22 million, represented the largest investment in park history on a single attraction as of 2016.[3] The investment is one component of a multi-year expansion costing $300 million, which began in 2013.[3]\nLightning Rod was scheduled to open with the park on March 15, 2016, but the opening was postponed.[3][4][5] On March 24, 2016, Fred Grubb of Rocky Mountain Construction (RMC) stated that the roller coaster's magnetic launch system, which was being developed by an outside contractor, \"would not be able to perform at the level required for proper operation\".[6] Grubb did not elaborate any further on the nature of the problem, nor did he estimate the length of the delay.[6] Lightning Rod opened occasionally for \"technical rehearsals\", where select guests could experience the ride, but it didn't open officially to the public until June 13, 2016.[7]\nOn June 20, 2016, Dollywood announced that Lightning Rod would be closed while a recalled mechanical part was being replaced on the roller coaster, by request of Rocky Mountain Construction.[8] Park officials re-opened the ride, again as a \"technical rehearsal\", on June 29, 2016.[9] On September 5, 2016, Dollywood announced that the ride was once again fully operational.[10]\nMayfield Dairy released a co-branded ice cream flavor called \"Smoky Mountain Fudge\" advertising Lightning Rod.[11]\nLightning Rod's trains are themed to hot rod cars from the 1950s.[12] Each train has six cars, each seating four people (in two rows of two riders), for a total capacity of 24 riders per train.[12]\nLightning Rod departs the station via a right-hand turn and is launched up its first hill, accelerating from zero to 45 mph. After a short drop, the train crests and descends its tallest hill, dropping 165 feet and attaining its maximum speed of 73 miles per hour.[12][10] Lightning Rod then climbs to the left and enters the first of several steeply-banked turns. Dropping out of the turn, the train rises to the right, then snaps to the left and back to the right again.[10] After another right-hand turn, Lightning Rod enters another snap-left-then-right sequence. The train enters a double-up climb before descending the mountain through a sequence of four consecutive drops prior to banking right and passing near the station. The train then enters its final turn, a climbing 180-degree turn to the right, before dropping and entering the final brake run, leading to a right-turn back into the station.[10]\nLightning Rod claimed the Best New Ride of 2016 from the 2016 Golden Ticket Awards.[13]\nGolden Ticket Awards: Top wood Roller Coasters\n11[14] 5[15] 6[16]\n^ a b c d e f Carly Harrington (August 7, 2015). \"Wood coaster, 'Lightning Rod,' is new at Dollywood for 2016\". knoxnews.com.

Not being a political unit, the boundaries of the region are ill-defined and focus on historical accounts.\nThe Punjab region has been inhabited by Indus Valley Civilisation, Indo-Aryan peoples, Indo-Scythians and has seen numerous invasions by the Persians, Greeks, Kushans, Ghaznavids, Timurids, Mughals, Afghans, British and others. The foreign invaders mainly targeted the most productive central region of the Punjab known as the Majha region, which is also the bedrock of Panjabi culture and traditions. The people of the Punjab today are called Punjabis and their principal language is called Punjabi. The main religions of the Punjab region are Islam, Sikhism and Hinduism. Other religious groups are Christianity, Jainism and Buddhism.\nMore about Punjab...\nThe name Punjab is a xenonym/exonym and the first known mention of the word Punjab is in the writings of Ibn Bat\u016bt\u0101, who visited the region in the 14th century. The term came into wider use in the second half of the 16th century, and was used in the book Tarikh-e-Sher Shah Suri (1580), which mentions the construction of a fort by \"Sher Khan of Punjab\". The first mentioning of the Sanskrit equivalent of 'Punjab', however, occurs in the great epic, the Mahabharata (pancha-nada 'country of five rivers'). The name is mentioned again in Ain-e-Akbari (part 1), written by Abul Fazal, who also mentions that the territory of Punjab was divided into two provinces, Lahore and Multan. Similarly in the second volume of Ain-e-Akbari, the title of a chapter includes the word Panjnad in it. Punjabi Adab De Kahani, Abdul Hafeez Quraishee, Azeez Book Depot, Lahore, 1973. Punjab, derived from Persian and introduced by the Turkic conquerors of India, literally means \"five\" (panj) \"waters\" (\u0101b), i.e., the Land of Five Rivers, referring to the five rivers which go through it. It was because of this that it was made the granary of British India. Today, three of the rivers run exclusively in Punjab, Pakistan, while Himachal Pradesh and Punjab, India have the headwaters of the remaining two rivers, which eventually run into Pakistan.\nMaharaja Ranjit Singh (Punjabi: \u0a2e\u0a39\u0a3e\u0a30\u0a3e\u0a1c\u0a3e \u0a30\u0a23\u0a1c\u0a40\u0a24 \u0a38\u0a3f\u0a70\u0a18), (13 November 1780 \u2013 27 June 1839), was the founder of the Sikh Empire, which came to power in the northern South Asia in the early half of the 19th century. He survived smallpox in infancy but lost sight in his left eye. He fought his first battle alongside his father at age 10. After his father died, he fought several wars to expel Afghans in his teenage years, and was proclaimed as the \"Maharaja of Punjab\" at age 21. His Empire grew in the Punjab region under his leadership through 1839.\nPrior to his rise, the Punjab region had numerous warring misls (confederacies), twelve of which were under Sikh rulers and one by a Muslim. Ranjit Singh successfully absorbed and united the Sikh misls, took over other local kingdoms to create the Sikh Empire. He repeatedly defeated the invasions by Muslim armies particularly those arriving from Afghanistan, and established friendly relations with the British. Ranjit Singh's reign introduced reforms, modernization, investment into infrastructure and general prosperity\nPhulkari embroidery from Patiala\nDialects of Punjabi\nThe snow-covered Himalayas\nMenander I Soter (165/155 \u2013130 BCE), conqueror of the Punjab, carved out a Greek kingdom in the Punjab and ruled the Punjab until his death in 130 BC.\nPunjab, India, 2014\nPunjab Province (British India), 1909\nThe Punjab, 1849\nEthnic Punjabis in Pakistan\nThe Panjab, 1880\nTaxila in Pakistan is a World Heritage Site\nA section of the Lahore Fort built by the Mughal emperor Akbar\nChandigarh Delhi Eastern Punjab Gilgit-Baltistan Haryana Himachal Pradesh Kashmir\nKhyber Pakhtunkhwa Rajasthan Western Punjab Sikhism Asia British Empire Canada\nWikipedia in Punjabi\nThere is a Shahmukhi \u067e\u0646\u062c\u0627\u0628\u06cc\u202c version of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.\nThere is a Gurmukhi \u0a2a\u0a70\u0a1c\u0a3e\u0a2c\u0a40 version of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Portal:Punjab&oldid=868772041\"\nAsian portals",

These were supplied to Watson Steel, who carried out the installation.\nThe on/off ramps provide rapid access from the new terminal to the adjacent car parks. They were designed to accommodate cars that run on tracks by ATS. Although the first of its type in the UK, it was hoped that this design could be developed as a means of transport in many urban areas.\nBearing design was undertaken by CCL Engineers, using the latest bespoke software to meet client specification, whilst ensuring the most economical configuration. CCL was awarded the project because of its extensive experience in the design and manufacture of bridge bearings and its ability to provide an effective solution, at a competitive price.\nThe design, manufacture and delivery of the bearings were all completed to a tight programme of works, ensuring the client\u2019s schedule was maintained.",

It's extremely important that you feel comfortable with your personal physician, and I hope this page will help you start to get to know me.\nI grew up in a small town in northern New Mexico, but I move to Southern California at the age of 12. Even when I was a young child, I knew that I wanted to be a doctor because I had a passion for science and anatomy. At age eight I had a library card and my favorite books to check out were human anatomy books. I would spend hours reading about the human body. After spending time in the Marine Corps I started my long journey towards becoming a doctor. I knew that I wanted to be able to make a real difference in people's lives, and practicing medicine gives me that opportunity. Working at Kaiser Permanente has provided that opportunity in ways that exceeded my expectations.\nMedicine as a career is a very special opportunity to connect and help people in a meaningful way, utilizing medical skills and knowledge, but also listening and responding to what patients need. Being a doctor allows people to share with me their concerns, innermost fears and hopes; it is a privilege to help patients understand what concerns them, translate what they may not grasp, facilitate getting them the appropriate evaluations, and communicate with them and their families. I feel very honored that patients have entrusted me with their care and strive to treat them as I would my own family.\nI firmly believe in Kaiser Permanente's philosophy of total health and try to live it in my life every day. My family life is my major priority. I enjoy family outings to UCLA basketball games, I practice basketball with my son, and I help my daughter with her soccer skills. My wife, three sons, daughter, and I enjoy summer boating trips to the various lakes in California, Nevada, and Utah. I believe that keeping the mind active is also important. When I have quiet time I enjoy reading my medical journals, my Bible, and any books on theology that I can get my hands on.\nGardena Medical Offices",

        "title": "Ethical Issues Entailed By Economic Arguments Against Climate Change Policies. | Ethics and Climate",
        "raw_content": "Ethical Issues Entailed By Economic Arguments Against Climate Change Policies.\nPreface: Most arguments against climate change policies are short-term economic arguments of various types that almost always raise serious ethical problems. The following article by guest blogger Nicholas Krause is one in a series of ClimateEthics posts that look at ethical issues raised by economic arguments againts climate change policies. This post looks at three specific economic arguments that are frequently made against climate change policies and identifies ethical isues raised by these arguments. These arguments are climate change policies should be opposed because they: (a) increase fuel costs, (b) decrease GDP, and (c) destroy jobs. Other ClimateEthics articles on this topic include:\n\u2022 Ethical Problems With Cost Arguments Made In Opposition to Climate Change Policies: The Failure To Value The Harms That Will Be Caused by Doing Nothing.\n\u2022 Ethical Problems With Cost Arguments Against Climate Change Policies: Increased Costs May Not Justify Human Rights Violations\n\u2022 Ethical Problems With Cost Arguments Against Climate Change Policies: The Failure To Recognize Duties To Non-citizens.\nEthical issues are everywhere. Perhaps the greatest ethical issue of the time arrives as a problem that has the power to change the planet. Climate Change is a grave issue that is facing the world today. This can be seen from evidence stated by the UNFCCC.\n\u201cThe frequency of heavy precipitation events has increased over most land areas. Significantly increased precipitation has been observed in eastern parts of North and South America, northern Europe and northern and central Asia. There is also observational evidence for an increase of intense tropical cyclones in the North Atlantic since about 1970. Drying has also been observed over large regions, i.e. the Sahel, the Mediterranean, southern Africa, and parts of southern Asia.\u201d (UNFCCC)\nIt is not a future problem to deal with; it is affecting people now and needs to be dealt with accordingly. There are several arguments that oppose action to limit the effects of climate change but perhaps none are more publicized (or argued) than those based on economic reasoning. This post will focus on the ethical issues of three economic arguments opposing climate change policy. These are ethical questions because they imply that there should be no action taken because of economic and cost arguments. The three economic arguments are increased energy prices, decrease of global GDP, and significant loss of jobs.\nII. Three Economic Arguments\nA. Increased Fuel Costs\nThe first argument of increased energy prices is being made by oil companies. The oil companies claim that due to the lack of cheap alternative fuels, the cost of energy will increase.\n\u201cOil companies and industry -backed groups argue there aren\u2019t good alternatives to gasoline. Efforts to lower carbon dioxide emissions from fuel use in the Northeast won\u2019t have impact on global emissions and could raise oil prices.\u201d (Snyder, 2010)\nThe oil companies have the most to lose if climate change policies are adopted. They profit from fuel for nearly every industry imaginable. The downfall of oil companies are the amounts of carbon dioxide being emitted from their product. The only concern oil companies have is the amount of profits they will lose if climate change polices are put into action.\n\u201cThe Big Oil and Dirty Coal lobbies are working hard to stop reforms so that they can protect their enormous profits.\u201d (Weiss, 2010)\nThese arguments are not based on factual statements. The oil companies are consumed by greed so make statements based on their best interest without regard to the consequences they will have on others. This brings up the issue of ethics within the decisions of the oil companies to reject climate change policies. The oil companies are making their arguments on utilitarian grounds meaning that the most favorable decision is the one in which happiness is experienced by the most people. However, even within this argument are violations of utilitarian principles. This boils down to being a simple calculation without regard to keeping anything sacred. They are making the statement that the benefits of using oil (keeping energy costs \u201clow\u201d) outweigh the costs that consumption will have. In this, they are saying that allowing warming to continue and have devastating effects on the planet and its inhabitants is an acceptable cost of keeping oil as the main source of energy. This is ultimately taking life without consent. The oil companies are benefiting from loss of human life. This may seem indirect but it is exactly what is happening. Michael Sandel comments that the right thing to do is not simply a matter of calculating consequences by using cost and benefit analysis. He suggests that morality has a greater meaning. It pertains to the proper way human beings are to treat each other (Sandel, 2009). The oil companies are implicitly suggesting that a proper way to treat other humans is destroying their lives for the singular purpose of gaining profit. This is not how people are meant to be treated. All people deserve a greater respect than to be abused by companies with motives that disregard human life. Sandel suggests that the biggest weakness of utilitarianism logic it that it fails to respect the individual rights (Sandel, 2009). The case of climate change is a perfect example of this weakness. The oil companies are disregarding individual rights by continuing to fight policy regarding carbon dioxide emissions based on the argument of increasing energy costs.\nIndividual rights may seem like a loose term but there is a document known as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which outlines rights of all persons.\n\u201cAll human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.\u201d (Article 1)\n\u201cEveryone has the right to life, liberty, and security of person.\u201d (Article 3)\nThese rights are being violated by the oil company\u2019s rising price argument. They are using people as a means to and end thereby violating Immanuel Kant\u2019s theory of rights. Sandel writes about Kant\u2019s philosophy that morality is not about maximizing happiness or some other end, such as increased profit. Morality requires that persons are to be treated as ends in themselves.\n\u201cFor Kant, respecting human dignity means treating persons as ends in themselves. This is why it is wrong to use people for the sake of the general welfare, as utilitarianism does.\u201d (Sandel, 2009)\nKant makes the argument that we are not to use people for personal gain. The oil companies are using the argument of rising energy costs as a way of convincing people that climate change policy is not a good idea. They are completely rejecting scientific literature and using public ignorance of the subject in order to maintain a high level of profits. This method is a complete failure to acknowledge Kant\u2019s ideals of not using people as a means to an end.\nThus, the economic argument of rising energy costs brings up several ethical issues. First, it brings up the issue of the proper way to treat other people. Next it violates the idea of individual rights based upon the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Finally, it contests Kant\u2019s principle of not using people as a means to an end. Instead persons should be treated as ends in themselves because everyone deserves at least that much.\nB. GDP Arguments\nThe next economic argument opposing climate change policy is based on cost in terms of global Gross Domestic Product (GDP).\n\u201cThe IPCC\u2019s worst case scenario sees a roughly 4oC warming over the next century, explains Manzi, which would cost about 3 percent of global GDP. By contrast, using less energy, \u201csubstitute[ing] higher-cost sources of energy for fossil fuels, \u201cand paying for offsets would cost about 6 percent of world GDP. Thus, \u201cthe expected economic benefits of emissions mitigation do not cover its realistically expected costs.\u201d (Horn, 2010)\nThe argument being made here is that there should not be action on climate change because the cost of action regarding percent of GDP will exceed the cost (GDP) of inaction. This claim is not only debatable on factual grounds but on ethical ones as well. Some models have the climate warming as much as 9oC over the next century. This would surely affect the cost in terms of global GDP.\nThus uncertainty questions are brought into light within the model. It is known how temperature increases can affect the planet but some questions arise in the degree of change that will be experienced and on what time scale this will happen. The harms being identified in the argument are only economic harms. They are not taking into account the other dangers that will appear. It is still the moral responsibility of persons to counter uncertain ends because of the devastation that could be caused. This brings up the question of rights. Human rights are being violated because there are greater harms at risk than those identified in the argument. People are therefore not given the opportunity to determine what\u2019s right for them. Kant writes that all persons are capable of reasoning. By practicing this reasoning, people can learn morality (Sandel, 2009).\nThe GDP argument is not giving all the facts so it is impossible to use reasoning as a guide to a moral decision. Is it moral to allow a possible catastrophic event when something could have been done to prevent it?\nThe outcomes of allowing the climate to continue warming could prove disastrous. As stated in the opening paragraph, the effects are already being felt around the world. These effects are not being made known in the argument. Horn is implying that the effects of climate change are not worth the amount of money that will be saved by allowing them to take place. To what degree does this extend?\nMaybe the changes must be of a certain proportion/disaster in order to be allotted sufficient funds to fight the problem of global warming. Sandel shares in his book Justice:\n\u201cAny morally defensible policy toward smoking would have to consider not only the fiscal effects but also the consequences for public health and human well-being.\u201d (Sandel, 2009)\nThis same idea can be brought up in regards to climate change. Those posing the GDP argument have the fiscal effects figured out (at least in their minds) but have failed to take into account (accidentally or purposefully) the consequences of public health and human well-being. These two factors will be altered with the climate continuing to change as it has and has been predicted.\nThe GDP argument is also in question because it is utilitarian in nature and is therefore under the subjection of all utilitarian market flaws. Utilitarian theory states that the free market must promote the general welfare meaning, that both parties participating must increase utility without harming anyone. In the case of oil, the buying and selling of oil is harming people and therefore not promoting the general welfare. The emissions from gasoline and other oil products are harming the Earth system and thereby affecting the public in extreme and dangerous ways. Free choice may also be in question in the free market. Sandel poses the concept of tainted consent saying that choices made in the free market may be due to pressures being applied form unforeseen circumstances. These pressures lead to choices that are not \u201cfree\u201d.\nThe idea of higher goods is also called into question in the free market system. An example of this is emissions trading. This is the buying and selling of carbon credits to be able to release emissions into the atmosphere. This implicitly outlines the buying and selling of atmosphere. The atmosphere is being made into a commodity. This is one example of a higher good that is being sold in the market that should not be. The atmosphere is not owned by one person and can\u2019t be bought and sold like a piece of property as if it has an owner. It is of a higher norm and should therefore not be considered utility.\nThe principle of distributive justice also comes up in the free market.\nFollowing the emissions trading example, the countries and companies with the most money are going to buy the most carbon credits. This still leaves the poor countries poor and the rich countries will still be able to emit large amounts of carbon because they have the money to buy all of the credits. Distributive justice calls for a fairness of credit allotment. Without this rich countries will continue to emit mass amounts of carbon.\nThe distribution of harms is also a large issue in this topic. Countries like the United States are responsible for a high percent of carbon output but are not feeling the effects the same way as countries in Africa. These countries are experiencing horrific droughts and do not have the resources to cope with these harsh climate changes.\nIt is now clear that the economic argument of cost increases (in terms of GDP) has ethical repercussions. The first of them deals with the issue of uncertainty and what should be done in the face of it. The next issue deals with the shortcomings of the free market based on utilitarian ideals. Each of these outlines ethical issues of the GDP argument and why it is not a sound approach to oppose climate change policy.\nC. The Job Loss Argument\nThe final economic argument opposing climate change deals with job losses that would take place if certain regulations were to be passed.\n\u201cThe National Association of Manufacturers says that the price tag to implement cap-and-tax could be upwards of 2.4 million lost jobs by 2030.\u201d (Sensenbrenner, 2009)\nMany of these jobs would be lost in the coal and other energy industries because of the acts to control and regulate emissions and also move to clean energy technology. However, by making the switch to clean energy technology many jobs would be created. In a brief by Goodstein on Climate Policy and Jobs, he states that environmental spending would offset the losses by creating new jobs (Goodstein, 1997). He later states that the one industry that would be greatly affected would be the coal mining industry. So, besides having factual problems, this argument also brings up ethical questions.\nThe first ethical issue is concerns the duties and obligations to other people. The claim of the manufacturers is concerned only with job loss and not looking at the big picture of human welfare. It also fails to recognize human rights when making this claim. Referring to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, it is easy to see that many of these are being violated by the job loss argument. All people have a right to life and this argument fails to acknowledge this right. It does so by ignoring the harms and costs to society that will be imposed if climate change is allowed to continue at the present rate.\nIn conclusion, the economic arguments of increased energy prices, decreased global GDP, and loss of jobs all have ethical issues associated with them. The energy price argument brings up violation of human rights. The decreased global GDP argument calls upon ethical issues of the free-market flaws, human rights and uncertainty. The loss of jobs dilemma is countered by using similar arguments from the first two arguments. Examining all of these cost arguments, it can be seen that they ignore human rights and duties and obligations to others. Thus, all of these arguments have ethical issues. It is because of this that the debate is so sensitive. In order to make correct and educated decisions that affect billions of people, the factual as well as the ethical issues must be examined at all angles. This is the only way a proper and ethical decision concerning climate change policies can reached.\nMeteorology Student\n\u201cCurrent Evidence of Climate Change.\u201d United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.

He said, \u2018Well, you should start a website.\u2019 So I kind of just did it almost as a lark at first, not figuring it would become such a regular thing.\u201d\nIndeed, McNamara soon became known for her compelling writing and smart amateur detective work, even serving as a resource for police departments, helping to make connections between unsolved murders. She wrote about the 1976 murder of nurse Melanie Howell and the Golden State Killer, but focused primarily on cases that were little known or ignored by the media. \u201cI\u2019m drawn to cases that aren\u2019t so high profile, that are maybe even a little neglected, but which have enough evidence and clues that anyone with a will and an Internet connection can try to piece together the puzzle,\u201d she told The Codex in 2011.\nShe said she aspired to maintain sensitivity and objectivity in her true crime writing, avoiding some of the grislier aspects common to the genre. \u201cThese are real people; their pain is tremendous,\u201d she said in the 2011 interview. \u201cI\u2019m not being naive or disingenuous \u2014 I realize my blog isn\u2019t about fruit flies or Civil War heroes. There\u2019s an element of mystery and drama to the stories I cover. But the overriding motivation remains sharing cold case stories, finding answers, and seeing those responsible put away.\u201d\nMcNamara is survived by Oswalt and their 7-year-old daughter, Alice.",

        "raw_content": "Race Hard, Live Green: Leilani M\u00fcnter\nProfessional racecar driver Leilani M\u00fcnter wants to save the planet, one race at a time.\nBy Laine Bergeson Becco | July - August 2010\nLeilani M\u00fcnter is a passionate environmentalist \u2014 and a rising star in the motorsports world. It may seem like a paradoxical pairing. But in M\u00fcnter\u2019s mind, that\u2019s a good thing. She believes that the faster she drives, the easier it will be to sell her environmental message to the sport\u2019s 100 million U.S. fans \u2014 a group not widely associated with overt ecological concern.\nM\u00fcnter, 34, first made headlines when she placed fourth in a USRA Super Late Model Series event at the Texas Motor Speedway in 2006 \u2014 the highest finish by a female driver in the history of the track. And she\u2019s been using her high-profile racing career to spread a pro-environment message ever since.\nM\u00fcnter realizes that for the most part, she\u2019s not preaching to the choir.\n\u201cIf I didn\u2019t have the racecar,\u201d she says, \u201cmost of these folks probably wouldn\u2019t be paying attention to me.\u201d\nSo she keeps her message to fans simple: There are easy ways to lighten your footprint, such as recycling, LED lighting, solar water heaters and alternative fuels. \u201cI just try to talk about the things that I\u2019m doing,\u201d explains M\u00fcnter, who lives with her husband just outside Charlotte, N.C.\n\u201cI say, \u2018Hey, I just put in a rain-water collection system.\u2019 Then I\u2019ll put a picture on my Web site of my little project at home or my solar lights or my new LEDs.\u201d\nM\u00fcnter acknowledges that motorsports are anything but low-impact \u2014 although the longtime vegetarian points out that the meat industry emits more greenhouse gases than all types of automotive traffic combined. She has lobbied NASCAR and other racing organizations to use alternative fuels (the IndyCar circuit has been fueling its cars with 100 percent ethanol for many years). Meanwhile, to offset her own greenhouse emissions, she adopts an acre of rainforest through the World Land Trust prior to every race.\nShe also accepts only environmentally responsible sponsors. She\u2019s backed these days by GREENandSAVE, NativeEnergy, LED Savings Solutions and GroSolar, among others.\nM\u00fcnter, who studied biology and ecology at the University of California, San Diego, has been racing professionally for nearly nine years, but she started promoting her environmental message in earnest in 2006.\nAt first, it didn\u2019t go so well. \u201cI definitely ruffled some feathers,\u201d she recalls. Sponsors were shy about supporting someone with such an eco-friendly message (especially if they hadn\u2019t taken steps toward greening their businesses). Motorsports officials didn\u2019t like having their eco-lapses pointed out so publicly. And fans thought she was \u201csome weirdo, vegetarian, hippie girl from California talking about carbon footprints.\u201d\nBut, she\u2019s gradually been able to gather support for her views in the motorsports world, even as she\u2019s boosted her profile as an activist away from the track. M\u00fcnter is a frequent speaker at pro-environmental events, and as an ambassador for the National Wildlife Foundation (NWF), she\u2019s lobbied members of Congress on climate change issues.\n\u201cHer experience as a professional racecar driver and her passion as an environmentalist bring a unique voice to the conversation about how we develop solutions to global warming,\u201d says NWF communications director Christine Dorsey.\nPassion comes easily to M\u00fcnter, as does a taste for adventure. \u201cI remember when I got my first car \u2014 I definitely got a lot of speeding tickets!\u201d says the Rochester, Minn., native. \u201cI\u2019ve always enjoyed pushing the limit, and I\u2019ve always been an adrenaline junkie. Once I got behind the wheel of my first [race] car, I just fell in love with it.\u201d\nTo stay in shape for her sport (drivers need to stay in good physical condition to withstand the physical and mental stress of racing), M\u00fcnter works out regularly. \u201cI like to swim best, but I will scuba dive if I am near the ocean. If I am near snow, I snowboard. I also enjoy tennis and have been taking kickboxing lessons,\u201d she says. \u201cIn general, I step up my workout program when I have a race coming up and will exercise every day in preparation.\u201d\nWith five races on the ARCA circuit in the next four months, M\u00fcnter will need to stay sharp. Her fans \u2014 and the planet \u2014 are counting on her.\nGo behind the scenes at our cover shoot with Leilani M\u00fcnter:\nLaine Bergeson Becco\nOne comment on \u201cRace Hard, Live Green: Leilani M\u00fcnter\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Jennifer M. Hazen has spent the past 12 years working on security issues in Africa. Her research focuses on armed groups, intrastate conflict, transnational threats, and post-conflict peacebuilding. Dr. Hazen has served as a Research Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin and at the Center on Conflict, Development and Peacebuilding in Geneva. She has also worked as a Senior Researcher at the Small Arms Survey, a Political Affairs Officer at the UN peacekeeping mission in Sierra Leone, and as an Analyst with International Crisis Group.\nShe has taught at the University of Texas at Austin and Georgetown University. She received her PhD from Georgetown University.\n\u201cWhat Rebels Want \u2013 Resources and Supply Networks in Wartime\u201d highlights a number of themes. First, it challenges a number of common assumptions in the literature about conflict and about rebel group capacity.\nSecond, it details a framework for understanding rebel group capacity to wage war, and how rebel groups create and maintain (or lose) this capacity.\nThird, it focuses on what this means for the possibility of conflict termination, and in particular, the factors that influence a rebel group\u2019s decision to continue fighting or seek peace.\nWhat are the central questions of the book?\nThe main question that inspired \u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d was why it seemed so difficult to end civil wars. The standard answers seemed inadequate. Instead of focusing on the typical greed and grievance debates of the 1990s, or focusing on power sharing and elections, which are common approaches by the international community, I looked more closely at the armed actors themselves, and in particular the rebel groups.\nAs such, \u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d focuses on how rebel groups operate, how they access what they need to continue fighting, and most importantly, what influences their decisions to choose war or peace.\nHow have you sought to answer these questions?\n\u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d is based on detailed case studies of the rebel groups that fought the civil wars in Sierra Leone (1991-2002), Liberia (1999-2003) and C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire (2002-2011). It is a qualitative study based on primary research in all three countries, dozens of interviews, as well as secondary literature.\nThe case studies trace the evolution of these groups over the course of their wars, identifying their support networks, analyzing the ebb and flow of their access to war resources, as well as how these fluctuations affected their options and their preferences during wartime.\nWhat are the main findings of your book?\n\u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d focuses on understanding rebel groups, their options in war, and their preferences for war or peace. The case studies underscore that rebel groups are not always able to access what they need when they need it. They highlight the ebb and flow of conflicts over time, and the need to consider the evolution of wars as well as the evolution of the groups fighting them.\nThe groups that are most successful are those who can adapt to changing circumstances and build enduring support networks. For groups that can achieve this, war is always a more enticing option than peace.\nWhat does the book contribute to existing literature in the field?\n\u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d challenges common assumptions in the literature about the costs of war, the capacity of rebel groups, the ease of access to resources, the fungibility of resources, and the factors that influence decisions about war and peace.\nThe book further offers a framework for thinking about the resources, options and preferences of rebel groups during war.\nFinally, \u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d provides insights into possibilities for conflict management, and reasons why current efforts are often ineffective.\nHow does the book relate to your own (personal/professional) background?\n\u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d is closely related to the research I have conducted over the past 15 years on armed groups, conflict, and war termination. I have endeavoured to maintain one foot in the research world, and one in the policy world.\nAt times this is difficult, and can provoke adverse reactions from both worlds, but it is the place where researchers can influence policy. \u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d builds on my strengths as a researcher to contribute solid findings and recommendations to the policy world.\nWhat further research into the book\u2019s themes would you suggest?\nThere is still a great deal of research to be done on armed actors, peace processes, and both conflict prevention and conflict management. We know more now than we did in the 1990s. Some of the gaps I identify in \u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d are slowly being filled.\nYet there are still some common assumptions that need to be challenged. We need to do a better job of studying armed actors, their behaviours, their organizations, and their access to resources.\nI would also like to see more work done on the political will of international actors. \u201cWhat Rebels Want\u201d highlights areas where international actors could have more impact on conflict dynamics, but simply fail to act because they lack the will to expend resources, or in some instances, they expend resources but know very little about the conflict or how to affect its dynamics.\nFinally, we must remember that conflict resolution must come from those on the ground, and no solution will last if it is imposed by external actors. This offers another vein for future research.\n\u2190 Arthur Asa Berger: Theorizing Tourism \u2013 Analyzing Iconic Destinations\nG\u00e9rard Dussouy: Opposed to a Europe Dominated by Brussels \u2013 In Favour of a Federal European State \u2192\nManlio Graziano: clash of interests, Catholic Church, Italian nationhood, religions",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Overcoming a Miscarriage\nWhispers of Hope \u2192\nGoing a Little Fargo Than Before\nIn the last 48 hours, there have been two school shootings. The first was thwarted by a retired police officer on campus who immediately took out the shooter. This heroic story from Dixon, Illinois was buried by most newspapers and omitted by the majority of cable news outlets on Thursday. Meanwhile, today\u2019s massacre at Santa Fe High School in Texas has left ten dead. If recent campus shootings with fatalities tend to dominate national news, then expect this coverage in Texas to go a little further than the Parkland, Florida frenzy from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High.\nThe Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence, Psalm 11:5.\nTwenty two years ago, the film Fargo debuted in theaters. At the beginning of this movie, there is a disclaimer stating this is based upon a true story, changing the names to protect the victims and survivors. However, a recent article entitled Fargo: True Story or Work of Fiction calls into question the brutal nature of these crimes and murders. In 2014, FX created a television series based upon Fargo starring Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Freeman, Allison Tolman and Colin Hanks. Just from my initial observations, the violence in this series devalues life and as well promoting individuals to seek revenge.\nBut he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed, Isaiah 53:5.\nInstead of solely blaming guns on these recent school shootings, perhaps its time to expand the suspect list to include movies, music and video games that exhibit violence. Several of these tragic events are premeditated, inspired by years of bullying. Others are demonically influenced after evil thoughts are sown and conceived into human minds. According to recent investigations into murders by MS 13 gang members, Satanic worship is also to blame. I don\u2019t have all the answers to these growing number of school shootings, but I pray that the media doesn\u2019t use survivors as pawns to repeal the second amendment. May God\u2019s angels surround the families and parents who will go asleep tonight without their children.\nPosted in Truth and tagged Allison Tolman and Colin Hanks, angels, Billy Bob Thornton, demonically influenced, Dixon, Florida, Going a Little Fargo Than Before, Illinois, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, Martin Freeman, MS 13 gang members, Parkland, Santa Fe High School in Texas, Santa Fe High School shooting, Satan worship, school shootings, Television series Fargo by FX, the film Fargo.

        "raw_content": "Take Advantage of Tax Savings in a Down Market\nKnow when you have a deductible loss\nJust because the stock market lost money doesn\u2019t mean you have a deductible loss. As long as you hold on to an investment, you only have a loss on paper. It\u2019s only when you actually sell the investment that you have a transaction to report on your tax return.\nFortunately, the tax law allows you to offset your capital gains by your capital losses. You can avoid or minimize taxable gain by selling two investments, one at a gain and the other at a loss.\nHowever, an investment sold at a loss is not gone forever. If you believe it was a good long-term investment, you can buy it back. This strategy works very well if the price of the investment either stays the same or goes down even further. For example, let\u2019s say you sold 100 shares of ACME stock, which you purchased for $3,000, and receive $2,500 in cash proceeds from the sale. You can use the $500 capital loss to offset capital gains or other income. Now, let\u2019s assume you want to buy back the ACME stock because it\u2019s a good long-term investment. If the price of 100 shares of ACME is $2,500 or less, you can use the proceeds from the first sale to buy the stock back without having to provide any additional money. Caution: You must wait at least 31 days after the sale to repurchase the stock, otherwise the loss is not allowed.\nIf you are an IRA owner over age 59\u00bd, you can take advantage of the down market by taking distributions (either voluntary or required) of actual investments from your IRA, instead of the cash. You\u2019ll also escape the additional ten-percent premature distribution penalty. If there are investments within your IRA account that you want to hold long-term, but the value is currently down, you may want to consider having them distributed to you. Be aware that this is a taxable event and the fair market value of the investment must be reported on your tax return. However, any appreciation earned after the distribution will not be taxable until you sell the investment. This provides several advantages:\n\u2022 If you sell the investment, it will be taxed at the lower capital gains rate, which may be less than the rate for your IRA distribution;\n\u2022 It reduces your IRA account so your required minimum distributions may be smaller in future years; and\n\u2022 You can gift that investment to a person or a charity at a later date.\nAs always, consult your investment and tax advisor prior to taking any actions.",

This is just a short-term measure and we cannot be overly dependent on oil-related revenue.\nTo ensure a more sustainable revenue for the government, our tax base may be broadened by introducing new forms of taxes such as the much talked about sugar tax and digital tax. Sugar tax has been introduced in a number of countries \u2013 such as Thailand, Philippines, United Kingdom (UK), Ireland and South Africa.\nThe Ireland Department of Finance has estimated that the sugar tax alone should bring in an additional tax of \u20ac40mil (RM190mil) in a full year. This year, the UK government introduced a new soft drinks industry levy to be paid by producers and importers of soft drinks that contain added sugar.\nThis new tax marks the first step towards the government tackling potentially unhealthy foods through tax measures, while generating \u00a3520mil in the first year. In Thailand, the government raised taxes on soft drinks with high sugar content in September last year where taxes on sugar-sweetened soft drinks were changed from a 20% excise tax on the wholesale price to a 14% excise tax on the recommended retail price, with an additional sugar tax based on content.\nThe National Diabetes Institute reported that Malaysia has the highest rate of diabetes in Asia and one of the highest in the world, with about 2.5 million Malaysians aged 18 and above having this disease. Sugar tax can be introduced as a way to help tackle diabetes by incentivising consumers to opt for healthier drinks, while encouraging the relevant industry to reduce sugar content and deliver healthier products.\nThe government may also consider a form of digital tax in view of technological developments, where businesses can be carried out virtually anywhere without the need to have physical presence. Some countries like South Korea, Japan, New Zealand and Australia have set rules requiring overseas online suppliers to register for value-added tax (VAT) or GST. In this year\u2019s budget, Singapore introduced an overseas vendor registration system where overseas suppliers and electronic marketplace operators who offer digital services to Singapore consumers will be required to register for GST with the Singapore tax authorities with effect from Jan 1, 2020.\nMeanwhile, India introduced an equalisation levy on online advertising revenue earned in the country by non-resident e-commerce companies. The European Union is also in the midst of deliberating its digital tax proposals, which may potentially include an interim measure of a tax based on turnover for digital transactions while working towards a long-term objective of a digital taxable presence or permanent establishment framework.\nIn Budget 2017, efforts were made to capture digital transactions into the tax net by expanding withholding tax on royalties to include payments to non-residents for the use of software.\nHowever, there were arguments on the differing interpretations of \u201croyalty\u201d taken by foreign jurisdictions resulting in potential double taxation.\nPerhaps, a more effective way would be to introduce a form of digital tax (say, service tax) on overseas supplies of digital services where such foreign companies are required to register for service tax and charge service tax on such services. This not only helps in revenue contribution but creates a level playing field between local and foreign companies.\nThe mechanism in which how new taxes can be implemented with ease and the impact on the growth of the economy should be studied. It is also important that the introduction of any new taxes are as practicable as possible to ensure that businesses have adequate time to prepare and consider the implications.\nCurrently, penalties ranging from 10% to 35% of the tax undercharged is imposed on voluntary disclosures of understatement of income by taxpayers depending on how fast the voluntary disclosure is made. This can be a \u201cturn-off\u201d for taxpayers who are willing to come forward and correct their tax returns.\nIn Singapore, the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) has a Voluntary Disclosure Programme (VDP) that aims to encourage taxpayers that have made errors in their tax returns to voluntarily come forward to correct their errors.\nThe programme is an attractive one in that zero penalties are offered for voluntary disclosures made within one year from the statutory filing deadline. A 5% penalty is imposed if such disclosures are made after the said grace period.\nTaking a leaf out of the IRAS\u2019 book, we may consider revisiting our current penalty regime to encourage voluntary compliance and disclosure. Such measure promotes fairness as generally, taxpayers would want to comply with their tax obligations. Unintentional errors may be made in the tax returns due to lack of care or awareness.\nA \u201ccarrot\u201d approach would be more enticing to taxpayers to voluntarily pay the additional taxes arising from such errors, as opposed to penalising them.\nThe Finance Ministry has implemented a tax amnesty programme where tax penalties may be reduced or waived to encourage taxpayers to voluntarily disclose their income and settle tax arrears. This programme, valid from March 1 2016 to Dec 15, 2016, was fairly successful with many taxpayers coming forward to declare unreported/under-reported taxes.\nTo encourage greater self-compliance amongst businesses, this programme should be re-introduced with tax penalties fully waived for voluntary disclosures. This can be an effective way to collect additional taxes with minimal efforts on the part of the tax authorities.\nBoosting private investments\nFelix Research will help in driving traders money to higher returns in bursa malaysia market and our research expert provides best KLSE trading advices.\nIn view of our nation\u2019s fiscal position, it is clear that private investments takes the driver\u2019s seat in spearheading growth.\nAccording to the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (Mida), RM197.1bil worth of investments were approved by Malaysia in 2017, down 7% compared with RM212.9bil in 2016. Mida had stated that the 2017 performance, while moderate, was hard-won against significant international competition. This shows that our country is facing stiff competition from other countries where foreign direct investments (FDIs) are concerned.\nOur current corporate income tax rate of 24% is not competitive with our neighbouring countries. For example, the tax rate for Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia stands at 20% while Singapore\u2019s is at 17%. Clearly, our tax rate could be more competitive, to attract more FDIs into Malaysia. A bold move would be to reduce the corporate tax rate to perhaps 22% and take a holistic review on our tax incentive regime to ensure that we are raking in quality investments that outweighs the tax revenue lost. A lower tax rate would also encourage domestic companies to expand their business locally rather than seek alternative locations overseas that will eventually lead to a loss of revenue for Malaysia.\nSingle agency for tax incentives\nI welcome International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Darell Leiking\u2019s proposal to have a single investment promotional agency to approve investments, perks and benefits for both local and foreign investors.\nCurrently, there are too many government agencies overseeing tax incentives in specific economic areas. For example, the Iskandar Regional Development Authority is tasked to oversee tax incentives offered in Iskandar Malaysia, Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation for companies in the information technology/ shared services centre sector, Halal Development Corporation for halal investments and so on.\nI would propose for the management of tax incentives in Malaysia to be under the umbrella of Mida, which will lead and administer the tax incentive framework in Malaysia.\nSub-agencies that specialises in specific sectors can be formed under Mida and these sub-agencies can form part of the committee evaluating and approving tax incentive applications. This gives Mida a holistic view of our tax incentives regime and enables Mida to formulate effective policies for the country as a whole. From the investors\u2019 perspective, having a one go-to government agency avoids confusion and simplifies compliance process.\nBudget 2019 will be the maiden budget under the new government and is going to be a sacrificial budget as quoted by our Prime Minister. There is no doubt that the government will have a tough job formulating strategies to stimulate economic growth, while recognising the need to reduce the nation\u2019s debt and prioritise the well-being of the rakyat. Will there be a silver lining to this upcoming budget? I certainly look forward to Nov 2.\nSubscribe with felix research get a free trail for bursa malaysia trading signal and KLSE stock tips.",

        "title": "What\u2019s Getting In Your Way? | Fitness Together",
        "raw_content": "It\u2019s a fact of life: if you\u2019re on a path, you\u2019re bound to hit an obstacle or two. This is true whether the path is a literal one dotted with construction zones and stoplights, or a philosophical path strewn with setbacks and unexpected events. Your path to living a healthier lifestyle is, unfortunately, not immune to this fact. And to make things even harder, many of the barriers you\u2019ll likely face as you try to get fit and/or lose weight are often hidden; disguised as benign or even helpful.\nCurious about how to identify what might be holding you back, and what to do about it? Below we\u2019ve listed some of the most common, and most surprising, health setbacks you might be falling victim to right now.\nThe \u201cfree\u201d trap\nFat-free and sugar-free packaged snacks line grocery store shelves with promises of happy, guiltless snacking. Except they\u2019re not. The price you pay for the absence of fat and sugar is often ingesting a myriad of unnatural, unpronounceable ingredients that are a far cry from the food\u2019s natural, original state. For example, did you know that food manufacturers must add in all kinds of artificial chemicals and flavors to make that fat-free food taste as good as it did with its natural fats? And these artificial ingredients, including modified food starch, high fructose corn syrup, diglycerides, and hydrolyzed vegetable protein, can affect your hormones, making it much harder to lose weight.\nAnd if you\u2019ve gotten yourself into a diet soda habit, you might want to think again. Sugar-free is far from trouble-free. Researchers at Purdue University found that artificial sweeteners like aspartame, saccharin, and surculose can cause obesity, heart problems, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. There\u2019s some bitter irony for you. Part of the reason for this is that when you consume these sweeteners your body expects a surge in glucose. Then, when it doesn\u2019t get it, your cravings redouble their efforts, often causing you to reach for even more sweets than you originally would have. Plus, other research shows that those who partake of artificial sweeteners end up having lower tolerance for more complex tastes, like fruits and vegetables. Also, the innocent-sounding caramel color that gives your diet soda its trademark dark brown hue has been linked to cancer, a compromised immune system, and the activation of allergies.\nThe \u201cgood enough\u201d trap\nSo you\u2019ve had your session with your trainer, and you\u2019re good to go, right? Not so fast, gym rat. You won\u2019t actually know if you worked out to your potential until the next day or two when you see how your muscles feel. Your goal is to feel mildly sore in the muscles you worked. This way you know that you stressed your muscles enough for them to develop micro-tears, and the fibers will heal stronger and larger than before. It can be easy to get in a workout rut, just doing your same-old, same-old, and never truly challenge your muscles and endurance. Your trainer can make sure that you get appropriately challenged and pushed, each and every session.\nThe \u201ctoo busy\u201d trap\nYes, you are indeed busy, with many demands on your time, and can\u2019t imagine how you\u2019d fit workouts into your weekly grind. But making time for sessions with your trainer? They\u2019re every bit as important as your standing coffee date or happy hour. Start by making one appointment with your trainer every week. Then slowly incorporate one or two more weekly sessions. If you just simply can\u2019t see how it\u2019s possible, ask others how they manage to find time to exercise, and use them as inspirations for your own journey. Also, find ways to exercise throughout your daily schedule. Have a long conference call? Work in some squats or power walking while your team members drone on. Better yet, try to incorporate \u201cwalking meetings\u201d with your co-workers, where everyone sets out for some sunshine and cardio while you work through the latest customer requests.\nBarriers are a reality on your path to fitness, but they don\u2019t have to be a dead end. Learning to identify what\u2019s holding you back will help you to overcome, push forward, and stay strong.",

        "raw_content": "Quote from: Tom Bishop on August 26, 2018, 05:13:15 PM\nAnd the response to that is \"well the earth is special. It is large, it has its own sun to warm it and it is the only place we find life. It isn't like the tiny twinkling planets you see when you look up. \"\nIf the sun is no more than 32 miles across ... how big is a star placed not much different in altitude? The size of a double decker bus? Maybe we need to make much more out of how very different earth is from planets. People have been taught earth and planets are the same, stars are different. We need to be saying stars and planets are the same, earth is different ... which is obvious to anyone with a pair of eyeballs.\n.... considering that there are reports of people observing Venus throughout the night.\n... and where are these to be found? In the previous 'Venus' thread? I think not...\nIt depends on what you want an FAQ to be. Usually they are used to blunt an onslaught of common questions from being asked over and over again in a short, terse manner. You can always link off to a more in depth examination. But an FAQ should weed out a bunch.\nI think what people get from school and media is that we learn there are 3 things out there: Planets, of which earth is one, moons that are 'attached' to planets, and stars, of which the sun is one. That's kinda the core belief system. Then with FET you kind of get four, the 4th being earth. I don't think it's a leap from there to make a case that earth is fundamentally different from the other 3, hence the insufficient comparison. Easy explanation, to your point Thork, it's the only place we find life. Doesn't get more fundamentally different than that.\nSo my point is that if the fundamental difference(s) are not already known to the reader, there's not much more you can say to convince them otherwise.\nSurely if you're going to rely on that answer, you should have proof of the flatness of the court, beyond \"It's obvious it's flat\" ?\nQuote from: Tumeni on August 27, 2018, 09:04:55 AM\nNo. The spirit of the question is \"I know a few objects which are round, so why isn't this other object round?\" Going into any more detail than pointing out the flawed proof by induction would be counter-productive.\nWhy is that question asked so much? I mean come on it is not reliable to the Earth and should not be a question, it\u2019s an annoyance\nIt's an obvious question because we are all brought up being taught that there are 8 (when I were a lad it was 9) planets in the solar system and the earth is just one of them.\nIf that is true then why would earth be different?\nThe FE response has to explain why mainstream science has got it wrong and what evidence there is that the earth is indeed special - as the ancients believed and modern science has come to conclude is not true.\nYes, more evidence to show that the Flat Earth theory is considered an important and controversial topic.\nQuote from: stack on August 23, 2018, 06:20:38 PM\nI have performed a hard math experiment which anyone can perform and the Sun does not compute to 3000 miles.\nI am a flat earth researcher.",

        "raw_content": "Surrealist VINCENT CASTIGLIA Announces \u2018Resurrection\u2019 Art Exhibition At NYC\u2019s Sacred Gallery October 4th-31st!\nWorld-Famous Surrealist VINCENT CASTIGLIA Announces Retrospective Art Exhibition \u2018Resurrection\u2019\nAppearing at Sacred Gallery NYC, October 4th \u2013 31st Opening: Thursday, October 4th from 8 PM \u2013 11 PM\nH.R. Giger Museum Honored NYC Native Displays Collection Utilizing his Own Blood as a Medium\nWorld-famous surrealist and New York City native VINCENT CASTIGLIA is pleased to announce his upcoming solo art exhibition entitled \u2018Resurrection\u2019, taking place from October 4th-31st at Sacred Gallery NYC (located at 424 Broadway 2nd Floor between Canal and Howard, NYC). The gallery will host an opening reception on October 4th from 8-11pm. This retrospective encompasses all of Vincent\u2019s available work from the beginning of his career and aims to examine the congruency of life and death. Propelled by correlated personal experiences just this year, his deep and continually renewed understanding of the consistency between the two themes will come to prominence at this haunting and memorable exhibition. \u2018Resurrection\u2019 will include a striking collection of Vincent\u2019s paintings, which are created exclusively in his own human blood.\nVincent\u2019s figures, their musculature and skin, are painted with what could be thought of as \u201cliquid flesh\u201d. Its tendency to quicken the subjects is likely inapproachable by any other medium\u2014as it is actual tissue with which it is being rendered. In this way the subject\u2019s realism is not merely an optical illusion due to its level of detail, but rather is an actual transference of flesh and blood to each work. In the privacy of his studio, Vincent practices a kind of modern-day phlebotomy, siphoning the life force which contains his own psychic energy, while giving it an outlet and form. In doing so, he dissolves the barrier between artist and art in a most literal and immediate sense. In a personal statement, Vincent states, \u201cThis exhibit is the culmination of a lifetime of searching and posing many questions through images, making declarations of truths uncovered and pouring a myriad of emotions, conflicts, and bliss\u2019 into these coagulations which delineate all aspects of the past decade of my life.\u201d For more information on Sacred Gallery NYC, please visit www.sacredgallerynyc.com.\nVINCENT CASTIGLIA is the first American artist to receive a solo exhibition invitation from Oscar Award-winning artist H.R. Giger in the history of the H. R. Giger Museum Gallery. Vincent\u2019s art has been praised by fellow artists, musicians, and other notables throughout his career. \u201cWith such precise technique, his depiction of human musculature is nothing short of outstanding.\u201d \u2013 Paul Booth / World-renowned Tattooist, Artist, Gallery Owner, Fanatical Nihilist \u201cIf the body is the temple, then the heart is the altar and the blood is the sacred flame that enlightens the shrine. Vincent is painting with holy light.\u201d \u2013 Martin Eric Ain / Musician, Celtic Frost \u201cThe ominous truth that his art confronts, along with the exquisiteness in which it is portrayed, provides a timeless revelation into human existence.\u201d \u2013 Joe Sopkowics, Forensic Photographer VINCENT CASTIGLIA\u2019s impressive work has seen many sides of the entertainment world, as well. MTV New Media\u2019s Horror-Slasher Film, Savage County, featured his art as its official movie poster, depicting the three murderers in the film. Prior to the film, Vincent painted album art for heavy metal band Triptykon\u2019s 2010 debut release, Eparistera Daimones. Triptykon is founded by former Hellhammer / Celtic Frost singer and guitarist Tom Gabriel Fischer. His work has been featured on New York 1 News, Spike TV, as well as the television series, Miami Ink.

        "raw_content": "Goodbye, Blood Tests. Electronic Noses Can Analyze Your Breath and Diagnose Diseases\nCecille De JesusJune 21st 2016\n/ Breath\n/ Disease\n/ Electronic Nose\n/Disease\n/Electronic Nose\nA Breath Test In Place of Blood Test\nA team of researchers from the Texas Analog Center of Excellence (TxACE) at UT Dallas are working on a device that can analyze your breath and diagnose a wide range of diseases, called an \u201celectronic nose.\u201d\n\u201cSmell is one of the senses of humans and animals, and there have been many efforts to build an electronic nose,\u201d said Dr. Navneet Sharma, the lead author of paper. \u201cWe have demonstrated that you can build an affordable electronic nose that can sense many different kinds of smells. When you\u2019re smelling something, you are detecting chemical molecules in the air. Similarly, an electronic nose detects chemical compounds using rotational spectroscopy.\u201d\nThe rotational spectrometer can detect low levels of chemicals in the breath using electromagnetic waves, which it transmits over a wide range of frequencies. It can determine what chemicals are detected and how much of the chemical is detected.\nNotably, this is effective for disease detection because gases that come out in breath contain information about practically every part of the body. According to the team, this makes it as good as a blood sample.\nMoreover, the researchers assert that the electronic nose is far more accurate than a standard breathalyzer, as such tests contain artefacts, and it could be a good device to detect diseases earlier, cutting down on healthcare costs. Notably, although breath analyzing devices have long been in existence, at the moment, they are expensive as well as a little too bulky for commercial use.\nMore Affordable, And Hopefully Portable\nThe team has concluded that using a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) integrated circuit technology, the same circuit technology used in smart devices, can make an electronic nose that is affordable.\nResearchers are working on a prototype for the programmable CMOS-based electronic nose which they see being used in industrial settings before hitting clinics and hospitals. Beta testing is targeted in early 2018.\nIntegrated circuits like that one to the right of the quarter under the label \u2018CHIP1\u2019 is the key to making the electronic nose affordable. UT Dallas\nCompanies Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC), Texas Instruments Inc., and Samsung Global Research Outreach have been supporting the project.\n\u201cSRC and its members, including Texas Instruments, Intel, IBM, Freescale, Mentor Graphics, ARM and GlobalFoundries, have been following this work for several years. We are excited by the possibilities of the new technology and are working to rapidly explore its uses and applications,\u201d said Dr. David Yeh, SRC senior director. \u201cIt is a significant milestone, but there is still much more research needed for this to reach its potential.\u201d\nNew \u201cSneezometer\u201d Could Change How Asthma is Diagnosed and Treated",

        "title": "GeekMom Zombie Apocalypse Countdown (10 Days to Go) - GeekMom",
        "raw_content": "Welcome to the very significant date of 12/12/12! I hope you\u2019re planning something fun, especially if you have kids. Buy a dozen donuts. Make a dinner where everyone has to eat twelve of something (green beans, pretzels, etc.). Set up an obstacle course where you do twelve repetitions at each \u201cstation.\u201d Think of an activity that your family loves to do and incorporate the number twelve in it. Happy Dozen Day!\nNow back to serious matters. The next most significant day on the horizon is 12/21/2012. The day the Mayan calendar ends. The day *some* people believe the zombies will try to take over the world. But just how did the zombie thing get attached to the Mayan calendar thing? It turns out that the culprit may be Hollywood. Although the earliest mass introduction of the concept of the undead coming to life was featured in Mary Shelley\u2019s book Frankenstein, published in 1818, movies took the theme to a new level. In 1936 H.G. Wells released Things to Come. The movie is set in a post-apocalyptic time where the un-infected humans have to destroy the infected if they want to survive.\nLet\u2019s fast forward to 1968. Many books and comics had showcased the zombie theme but when George Romero\u2019s masterpiece, Night of the Living Dead hit screens, the genre took off. Film critic Roger Ebert warned parents not to take their children. The zombies in Romero\u2019s movies were not silly characters you could laugh at. They felt real. With the success of his first movie, Romero went on to make five more in the \u201cLiving Dead\u201d series.\nWith Romero\u2019s lead, many movie writers did their own spin on the idea. Which brings us back to the question of how the Mayan calendar got linked to zombies. My best guess, after hours of research online, is that the Mayan calendar drawing to a close was rumored to cause unrest in the world (like we don\u2019t already have a good bit of that). What says unrest and chaos more than zombies? It\u2019s a scenario that reeks of more fun. Which is more exciting, after all \u2014 that earth spontaneously blows up\u2026 or that zombies are walking around, begging to be hunted, giving you a great excuse to stock pile Twinkies and Spam?\nOnce movies linked the two, there was no stopping the idea. Science fiction books and comics ran with it. More movies were made. The predictions became deeply rooted in our culture.\nThe GeekMom group has some of our own favorite zombie movies that we\u2019d like to share with you. You can choose whether you watch them now, as you\u2019re preparing, or once you\u2019re hunkered down and need some long term entertainment.\nThe top two favorites, of course, are Night of the Living Dead (because it\u2019s just a classic and set the standard) and Zombieland (because it\u2019s more current and has a geeky main character).\nGeekMom Amy is fond of Shaun of the Dead but also recommends a lesser known movie called Planet Terror . I\u2019m personally interested in Planet Terror because one of the main characters loses her leg and is fitted with a machine gun that also works as an artificial leg. It\u2019s making me feel like my regular ole plastic and titanium foot and leg are very inadequate I\u2019m thinking I might need to call my leg guy in the next week or so, and see what we can rig up.\nIf you\u2019re only interested in how a gun-leg would work, fast forward this clip to the 1:20 mark. It\u2019s awesome.\nAnother obscure pick was submitted by Ariane. She caught the showing of a zombie themed movie at a film festival. It\u2019s called Fido and here\u2019s the premise, from Ariane herself:\n\u201cIt takes place after the zombie apocalypse and it\u2019s about middle class suburbia keeping zombies\u2013controlled with special collars\u2013as pets and servants. Very strange!\u201d\nWhen it comes to zombie movies, strange and entertaining are the same thing, right?\nOne theme I found interesting, as I put the call out for favorite zombie movies, was the fact that many of our GeekMom writers can\u2019t actually watch a zombie movie all the way through. It gives them nightmares. I totally understand this. It\u2019s the same reason I can\u2019t watch scary movies centered around a teenage girl babysitting. It\u2019s too real. It\u2019s too close to home. I always tell my kids, when they beg me to watch scary movies with them, \u201cI have enough fears of my own, I don\u2019t need to be introduced to new ones!\u201d\nFor moms, the zombie apocalypse is just another thing we have to be prepared for. If there\u2019s not enough food or water, everyone looks to mom and asks why. If someone gets a cut or scrape, they turn to mom for a bandage. Being reminded of all the things that can go wrong (much like the scare surrounding Y2K) can most definitely give a GeekMom nightmares.\nSo have fun, and watch some of these treasures, if you\u2019re able. If not, maybe you could make better use of your time making sure you do have enough bandages in the supply kit. We will not judge.\n\u2190 GeekMom: Comic Book Corner \u2014 December 12th, 2012\nGeekMom Gift Guide: Gadgets and Accessories \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Vice President and Mrs. Cheney's Remarks and Q&A at a Town Hall Meeting\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Good morning, everybody. (Applause.) Good morning. (Applause.)\nMRS. CHENEY: Well, thank you all very much. We decided to be in charge of our own logistics.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Lynne has a little --\nMRS. CHENEY: A helper, a helper -- we call it a helper. So, Dick, the last time I saw you was? (Laughter.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: I don't think we ought to get that intimate this morning. (Laughter.)\nMRS. CHENEY: If this is Tuesday, I think it was Sunday.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Yes, that sounds right.\nMRS. CHENEY: So I think if they're going to set up these stools, they can at least get them so we're within shouting distance, don't you think? (Laughter.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: All right. I think so.\nMRS. CHENEY: I just introduce Dick. And the reason I have that job is because I've known him for such a long time. I have known Dick since he was 14 years old. (Applause.) And when I first knew him, his after-school job was sweeping out the Ben Franklin store. And I've known him through many a summer job and an after-school job. I knew when he was digging ditches out at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo Grounds. And I knew him when he was loading bentonite, hundred pound bags of bentonite onto railroad cars. And I knew him when he was building power line across the West to help pay his way through school. And I like to tell those stories because I think when you grow up working hard, that you learn some things that are really important to know. And one of the things you learn is how important it is for hard working people to get to keep as much of their paychecks as they can. (Applause.)\nAnd there are so many reasons I know that Dick is proud to have worked for this President, and I certainly am, too. But one of the things I think that you found most gratifying -- I'll just speak for you since I've been doing that for a while --\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: That's quite all right. (Laughter.)\nMRS. CHENEY: -- is working on the tax cut packages. This President has provided more tax relief than any President since Ronald Reagan, and that is a great achievement. (Applause.)\nLet me tell just one more story, and you don't get to choose. Dick knows my repertoire, but he's never sure which story I'm going to tell. But I had a grandma, whom I loved very much, growing up in Casper, Wyoming. And her job, her official job was as the alternations lady at the H&G Dry Cleaners. I think it was probably the town's only dry cleaners when I was growing up. And she was the person in charge of sewing back on the buttons and fixing up the tears and the patches.\nBut she was also a really talented seamstress. And one day I saw a dress, a red dress, and I knew she could make me one like it. And I asked her to, and, indeed, she did. It was the most amazing dress. It was made out of red crinoline -- that stuff that is really stiff. And it had about a million yards of ruffles on it, so when you tried to put your hands down to your sides, you really couldn't. It was sort of like that. And it was strapless. This was the 1950s, remember. It was strapless and it was quite a dress. And I wore that dress the very first time I went out with Dick Cheney. And I credit that dress for my second date. (Laughter and applause.)\nIt gave me such a thrill -- it was such a privilege, such an honor the first time I got to introduce Dick to people as the next Vice President of the United States. Can you imagine how honored I am now to introduce him to you as my husband, Dick Cheney, the Vice President of the United States? (Applause.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Thank you. (Applause.) All right, thank you. (Applause.) Thank you all very much. (Applause.) Thank you. That was a very impressive red dress. (Laughter.)\nShe claims to have known me since I was 14, the fact is she didn't pay any attention to me until I was about 17. (Laughter.) I often explain to people that Dwight Eisenhower when he won that election victory in 1952 and got elected President had an enormous impact, really was responsible for Lynne and I getting married. Think about how the ripple effect of presidential elections -- they have lasting consequences. But in 1952, I lived in Lincoln, Nebraska with my folks. Dad worked for the Soil Conservation Service. And Eisenhower got elected, he reorganized the Agriculture Department. Dad got transferred to Casper, Wyoming, and that's where I met Lynne; and so we went to high school together, and grew up together, basically in Casper. And we'll next weekend -- this coming weekend, about three days, four days -- celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. (Applause.)\nI explained to a group the other night that if it hadn't been for Dwight Eisenhower's election victory, Lynne would have married somebody else. (Laughter.) And she said, right, and now he'd be Vice President of the United States. (Laughter and applause.) Absolutely true. No doubt in my mind.\nBut we're delighted to be here this morning, and have an opportunity to spend some time with all of you back here in Iowa, in Davenport, and Quad Cities area. And this is obviously a presidential campaign year. We've got our convention coming up shortly. Of course, the Democrats had their convention here a couple of weeks ago up in Boston. Some of you may have noticed. I now have an opponent. It's official. And a lot of people say John Edwards got the job because he's charming, sexy, good looking, has great hair. (Laughter.) I said, \"How do you think I got the job?\" (Laughter and applause.)\nBut it's an extraordinarily important election this year, and I say that not just because I'm on the ballot with the President, but because I think the decisions we're going to make as a nation this year in terms of the kinds of policies we pursue aren't just about the next four years, they may be about the next 40 or 50 years. They have that kind of potential. I think back to the period after World War II, after we'd won a great victory in World War II. I see some veterans in the audience here today I'm sure served in that conflict. We then ended up in a situation where in the late 1940s, early '50s, we had to craft a whole new strategy to deal with a brand new world. We built the Department of Defense for the first time, and created the CIA, and created NATO -- the North Atlantic Treaty Organization -- and put together a strategy that let us prevail in the Cold War over the course of the next 40 years, that was supported by Republican and Democrat administrations alike.\nI think we may be in a similar period now where the decisions we make as a nation about national security and about our strategy going forward take on that kind of significance, will have that kind of impact, will, in fact, determine the safety and security of the United States, of our kids and grandkids maybe for the next 40 or 50 years. So it's a very important election.\nAnd I want to talk for a few minutes, if I can this morning, about some of those issues that I think are involved in that. And then we'll throw it open to questions and have an opportunity to hear from all of you and to have a dialogue and focus on what you'd like to talk about, as well, too.\nI think it's important -- at least from my perspective, as I think back to the period of time since the President and I were sworn in on January 20th, of 2001, about three-and-a-half -- a little over three-and-a-half years ago now -- think about what was working at the time, some of which was known, some of which was unknown. But as we were sworn in that day, the planning for the attack of 9/11, obviously, was already well underway. The terrorists had been working on that since 1996. They had recruited terrorists. They had trained them. A lot of them had been through the training camps in Afghanistan. They had raised the money for the event. Some of them were already in the United States.\nIn Afghanistan, the Taliban were in power. They had created a safe haven for the al Qaeda organization. They had created an environment in which the training camps operating there had trained some 20,000 terrorists -- by one estimate -- between 1996 and 2001.\nIn Iraq, of course, Saddam Hussein was in power; he'd started two wars; he'd previously produced and used chemical weapons against his own people, as well as the Iranians; was a safe haven, a sanctuary, if you will, for terrorists of various kinds.\nWe also at the time, although this wasn't known publicly, were faced with a situation in which a man named A.Q. Khan who had created Pakistan's nuclear weapons programs had then diverted that suppliers' network that he'd built to own purposes and was selling uranium, and centrifuges, and centrifuge designs, and the design for a nuclear weapon to some of the world's most dangerous regimes, specifically selling nuclear weapons technology to North Korea, to Iran, and to Libya. That was operating at the same time, as well.\nWhat we found, obviously, as of 9/11, when we were struck that morning and lost some 3,000 Americans, the deadliest attack that ever occurred on American soil, we obviously discovered that we were in a situation that was dramatically different from what had gone before. It forced us to think in new ways about national security strategy. We had gone through the period of the Cold War, for example, based on a strategy of deterrence that we could persuade the Soviets never to attack the United States by holding at risk those things that the Soviets valued, in terms of their basic real estate and their national security. Those concepts have no meaning when you talk about al Qaeda. There's nothing you can hold at risk to keep al Qaeda from launching attacks against the United States. We were faced with a whole new set of concerns, and that strategy that had worked so well during the Cold War simply didn't have much bearing when it came time to protect the United States against the new threat.\nWhat we've done since then, obviously, is we've spent a lot of time and effort at strengthening our defenses here at home, and creating the Department of Homeland Security, at passing the Patriot Act that gave our law enforcement people more tools to use in prosecuting terrorists, recently set up Project BioShield. This will give us better defenses against a potential attack with biological weapons, a number of steps to strengthen our defenses, but what the President recognized, which was an absolutely crucial decision, was that there's no such thing as a perfect defense, that we can have a defense that is successful 99.9 percent of the time, but that the terrorists potentially armed with deadlier weapons than any we've ever had used on us before, potentially armed with chemical, biological, or nuclear weapons -- because we know they're trying to acquire that kind of capability -- those terrorists could, in fact, do devastating harm to the United States if they're successful only one-tenth of 1 percent of th\nAnd it was that basic, fundamental decision -- some people have come to refer to as the Bush doctrine -- that was vital, I believe, in terms of having a successful strategy. I don't think we can defend the United States going forward from this point on if we're prepared only to use military force after we're attacked. We've already been attacked. (Applause.)\nAnd I think this is where there's a fundamental difference between the approach that John Kerry has advocated and the approach that George Bush has actually implemented as President. I think there are fundamental differences here. Senator Kerry has talked about using U.S. military force in the traditional sense, where we operate to use force only once we're attacked. He's made it clear he has a different perception of how to defend the nation with respect to the current kind of threat we're faced with than does the President -- would have been fundamental differences, for example, over the situation with respect to Iraq. Senator Kerry voted for deploying forces to Iraq, for using force to topple Saddam Hussein's regime, when the President asked for that authority. But then a year later, when it came time to come up with funding to support the troops, and to give them the resources they needed to do the job we were asking them to do for us in Iraq, four members of the United States Senate who'd voted to commi\nNow, Senator Kerry said, well, it was a complicated question. I don't think so. I don't think it's ever a complicated question when the question is one of supplying resources for the troops that we've sent into action, faced with dangerous combat. (Applause.)\nThere's been a difference of debate, obviously, over this question of allies. Senator Kerry has alleged that somehow we went alone into Iraq, or into Afghanistan. That's simply not true. The fact of the matter is, we've had some 30 countries alongside us in Iraq, and more than that in Afghanistan. NATO has been part of the operation in Afghanistan. Even the French and the Germans have sent troops to operate alongside U.S. forces in Afghanistan.\nAnd in Iraq, we've had not only the Brits, but the Poles, the Italians, the Australians, a great many other nations participated as well, too. So we have tried hard and successfully to get other nations to commit forces to join in this international effort. Those are the facts. But the President has made it abundantly clear, contrary to the way Senator Kerry has implied that he, in fact, would seek the approval of the United Nations always, President Bush has basically said that he will not seek a permission slip to defend the United States of America. (Applause.)\nSo we're willing to work with allies, others who want to work with us. And as I say, we've done that extensively. The President went to the United Nations. He got a unanimous vote out of the Security Council with respect to the original resolution on Iraq. The basic, fundamental bottom line is the President of the United States cannot delegate to anybody else that basic fundamental responsibility to make decisions about when to commit U.S. forces in order to defend this nation. It's just absolutely that that be clear, and that we have a clear understanding about how a potential President, somebody who wants to be Commander-in-Chief would, in fact, use the authority that Constitution, in fact, assigns to the President under those circumstances.\nNow, the debate we're going to have this year is going to be hot and heavy. It already is. These are important issues. And I can't think of a more important setting for us in which to have this debate than the presidential campaign. That's as it should be. Sometimes there's a lot of noise in the system out there, and it's kind of hard to sort through the fog of the debate, if you will, and the political rhetoric to get to the heart of the issue. But we are going to make a basic, fundamental decision about how the United States proceeds with respect to guaranteeing the safety and security of our kids and grandkids. So that's why I think this election is as important as it is.\nThere are a lot of major issues on the domestic side that we need to address, as well, too. But I think we have, in fact, achieved a basic fundamental result -- if you look at all that we've done since 9/11, not only did we adopt that new strategy obviously, but the President applied it first in Afghanistan where we've closed the training camps, took down the Taliban. We've now stood up an interim Iraqi (sic) government. They have a constitution. They'll have free elections in October. We're well on our way to getting a democratically elected government established in Afghanistan.\nIn Iraq, of course, not only is Saddam Hussein no longer in power today, he's in jail, which is where he ought to be. (Applause.) I don't want to underestimate the difficulty of the task in Iraq and Afghanistan. We've got a lot of tough days ahead of us. There will be good days and bad days. But we're making significant progress. We're moving in the right direction. And if we can establish free governments, democratically elected governments in Iraq and Afghanistan, we can begin to fundamentally change the dynamics in that part of the world that have generated the dynamic, or the forces, if you will, that have produced the terrorists that have launched attacks not only against New York and Washington, but also Casablanca, and Madrid, and Mombassa, and Bali, and Jakarta, and Istanbul, and Riyadh, and so many other cities around the world since 9/11. That's what we're all about.\nNot only did we succeed there, of course, but when Colonel Ghadafi in Libya saw us succeed against Saddam Hussein, five days after we arrested Saddam, Colonel Ghadafi went public and said he was going to give up his aspirations to have nuclear weapons. And all of that material now, the weapons design, the uranium feedstocks, the centrifuges to enrich the uranium, it's all under lock and key down at Oak Ridge, in Tennessee. (Applause.)\nAnd, of course, the network that Mr. A.Q. Khan had established is now out of business. Mr. Khan is under house arrest in Pakistan. And his suppliers are no longer in the business of supplying nuclear weapons technology to outlaw regimes around the world -- a very significant set of accomplishments. And we've now managed for nearly three years to avoid another attack. But we should not underestimate the dedication and determination of our enemy. They're still out there. They're doing they can to find ways to launch attacks against the United States. There's reason to believe they'd like to try to do here what they've done so many other places around the world, and try to influence, if you will, the outcome of the political process. So we've got to be concerned about that. We know there's a threat level out there that all Americans have to be aware of, and that we have to be focused on, and we need to continue to exercise vigilance.\nBut I think we're on the right course. I think we've made major progress thanks to the leadership of the President, and thanks to the magnificent performance of our men and women in uniform. They've done a superb job. (Applause.)\nSo let me, with that, end my opening remarks. And as I say, at this point, we'd be prepared to take questions. I'll try to make sure we get around to as many people as possible. I think we've got proctors in the audience with microphones and tags hanging around their necks. So if you can have a question, if you can just get the attention of one of the proctors, we'll be happy to respond to some of your questions or concerns about those subjects, or any others.\nYes, right over here.\nQ Vice President Cheney, it is a real honor to have you and your wife here with us today. As a little quick aside, my husband was at the University of Wyoming with you. But you didn't know each other. (Laughter.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: He looks much younger than I do. (Laughter.)\nQ On a more important note, our son is a captain in the U.S. Army. And he has been in Iraq and safely returned home in May, for which we are very grateful. We have a concern that we make sure that all of the ballots of our military people around the world are counted in a timely fashion. Has this been looked after and made sure of and all that kind of thing? We had so much discussion about it in 2000?\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, first of all, let me -- on behalf of all of us -- thank your son for his service to the nation. (Applause.)\nThis has been an issue that I discussed, frankly, just last night. I was down in Kansas City with Senator Kit Bond of Missouri. He's been especially focused on it, discussed it with Secretary Rumsfeld over at DOD. And they're doing everything they can to make certain that we can get the absentee ballots out to our military personnel serving all over the world, and get them back in, in a timely fashion to where they have to go in order to be counted. I can't think of a group that has a better claim to the right to vote than those who are serving in uniform at this particular time, and it's vital that we get that right. And I know they're working on it. (Applause.)\nYes, other questions. Back here.\nQ Mr. Vice President, we managed to pass laws in this country for truth in lending, truth in advertising, truth in sales, what can we do to get truth in politics? (Laughter and applause.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: That's a tough question. (Laughter.) I think you got to elect the right people. (Applause.) And furthermore, I sayeth not. (Laughter.)\nNo, it is -- I've been involved in the political world now -- I started out to be a school teacher. I didn't plan to get into politics. And I went to Washington to stay 12 months, and that was in 1968. And so I got waylaid along the way. I think it's important -- I know it's frustrating lots of times because of the noise in the system out there, and unfortunately politics has gotten pretty negative at times in recent years, that has sometimes been true historically, too. You can go back and look at some of the campaigns a hundred years ago, they got pretty rough at times, as well, too. But it's important for us not to lose sight of the fantastic privilege we have as Americans of having the right to vote, of getting to get out there and participate, work for the candidate of our choice -- whether we contribute money or time, or whatever it might be to the enterprise -- when you think about what that represents, and how rare that is in the history of mankind, that to some extent so many Americans take it for g\nBut it's a free country. People get to participate or not participate. To some extent, the voters can have a big impact upon the conduct of the candidates, in terms of holding them accountable for their performance. And that's, after all, how the system is supposed to work. So I wouldn't let the occasional negativism that does creep into campaigns discourage you or others from participating. It's a tremendous privilege for us to get to participate as we do. An awful lot of good men and women made the ultimate sacrifice for us to be able to do that, and we should not treat that right lightly -- even though we don't always necessarily like all the noise and the background that go with it.\nWhat I find is that when you get out around the country, and get an opportunity to spend time like this here in Davenport, Iowa, or Kansas City, where I was last night, or back home in Wyoming, or any of so many other communities we've got all across the country, you can sit down and talk to folks, there will be disagreements. There ought to be. There will be strong feelings on both sides. There should be. These are important issues. But there's no reason for us not to jump in. And the best way to improve the overall quality of the process is to get as many folks as possible actively involved in supporting the candidate and the views of their choice.\nQ We are honored to have you in our town. And we hope that you and your bride can have some time together. (Laughter.) And we speed God's blessings upon you and your household.\nQ We have a battle here on this land, as well. And I would like to know, sir, from your heart -- I don't want to know what your advisors say, or even what your top advisor thinks -- but I need to know what do you think about homosexual marriages.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, the question has come up obviously in the past with respect to the question of gay marriage. Lynne and I have a gay daughter, so it's an issue that our family is very familiar with. We have two daughters, and we have enormous pride in both of them. They're both fine young women. They do a superb job, frankly, of supporting us. And we are blessed with both our daughters.\nWith respect to the question of relationships, my general view is that freedom means freedom for everyone. People ought to be able to free -- ought to be free to enter into any kind of relationship they want to. The question that comes up with respect to the issue of marriage is what kind of official sanction, or approval is going to be granted by government, if you will, to particular relationships. Historically, that's been a relationship that has been handled by the states. The states have made that basic fundamental decision in terms of defining what constitutes a marriage. I made clear four years ago when I ran and this question came up in the debate I had with Joe Lieberman that my view was that that's appropriately a matter for the states to decide, that that's how it ought to best be handled.\nThe President has, as result of the decisions that have been made in Massachusetts this year by judges, felt that he wanted to support the constitutional amendment to define -- at the federal level to define what constitutes marriage, that I think his perception was that the courts, in effect, were beginning to change -- without allowing the people to be involved, without their being part of the political process -- that the courts, in that particular case, the state court in Massachusetts, were making the judgment or the decision for the entire country. And he disagreed with that. So where we're at, at this point is he has come out in support of a federal constitutional amendment. And I don't think -- well, so far it hasn't had the votes to pass. Most states have addressed this. There is on the books the federal statute Defense of Marriage Act passed in 1996. And to date it has not been successfully challenged in the courts, and that may be sufficient to resolve the issue. But at this point, say, my own pre\nMore questions, yes.\nQ Vice President Cheney, welcome to Davenport. My question is, after 22 years my husband's -- (inaudible) -- and I would like to know in all of eastern Iowa, with all -- what as a nation, we can do to encourage companies to stay here in the United States and give our citizens jobs?\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Can I ask what kind of a business it was?\nQ He was a manufacturer for Marley Pump Company. They make submersible water pumps and gas pumps --\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: And did they move the plant, or they just closed down?\nQ They closed down totally in Davenport after 125 years.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Is that -- I assume -- because they could no longer do it profitably?\nQ They were making a profit. Marley Pump in itself, the red pumps were one of the most profitable parts of that corporation. And they moved part of it to Pennsylvania, and the rest is overseas -- three-fourths of it is overseas.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Sure. Well, the problem we're faced with, in part, is that we've got to find ways to make it possible for companies to operate in the United States, reduce the burden, if you will, in terms of doing business here, and look for ways to find it -- to make certain that companies can operate here and be competitive in the worldwide marketplace. There are a lot things we can do to help that we have not yet -- for one reason or another haven't been able to get approved.\nBut I would point to such things, for example, as health cost. The cost of providing health benefits for employees. It's an extremely important cost of doing business for a great many companies. We can do more through medical liability reform, for example. One of the problems we're having in my home state of Wyoming -- I'm not familiar with the situation in Iowa -- is that malpractice insurance rates have doubled. And we're to the point now where it's gotten very expensive for companies to provide health insurance for their employees. So we need medical liability reform at the federal level. We've got it through the House. So far it has been blocked in the Senate.\nWe can do a lot more with respect, I think, to the tax code by making the tax changes that we put forward -- permanent -- over the course of the last three years; things that provide for accelerated depreciation and reduced rates across the board, make it possible for companies to invest in expanding their capabilities in plant and equipment; to watch the regulatory burden and the red tape that we impose on companies so that they can compete with others around the world; to recognize we're part of an international marketplace, and that we've got to be able to create an environment that allows people to set up businesses here and compete with Japan or Mexico or Canada, wherever it might be.\nFrom time to time, there are bound to be changes in the economy. That it's not a fixed entity. It's a dynamic situation if you will. I know, for example, we've got some 47,000 Iowans that are employed by U.S. subsidiaries of foreign-owned companies. So you've got -- it, in effect, comes both ways. But where it, of course, obviously, presents a significant burden is when a particular company gets hit and is no longer able to operate in that particular locale, or in the United States.\nThe President has also supported trade adjustment assistance, for example -- payments to make it easier to make the transition when a company does, in fact, get hit and shut down, it's affected by international trade adversely, so that they can -- people can get retrained, take advantage of the programs that are out there in order to be able to get new jobs and pursue those opportunities elsewhere. But basically, we have to make it possible for companies to operate in the United States and not be driven out by an unwise tax burden, or unnecessary regulations, or a regulatory scheme, for example, in the health area that makes it impossible for them to business here.\nMRS. CHENEY: I just want to say because I've followed you and the President around so much, too, and I have heard them say time and again how committed they are to solving the kind of problem you bring up. And what the President says, and I've heard Dick echo it, is, we will not rest, we will not be content until every America who wants a job can get a job. (Applause.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Do we have a microphone back here? Go ahead, and I'll repeat the question.\nQ Yes, sir. (Laughter.) I'm one of the old guys from World War II.\nMRS. CHENEY: Oh, thank you -- thank you for your service. (Applause.) We have amongst us people who are waiting to see if (inaudible) I wanted to give my hope and the hope of those who followed me in Korea and Vietnam, we will not wait for politicians to tell us whether (inaudible) we have troops in harm's way. We are in (inaudible) we are doing what we should be doing. We are making a better land. And there will always be (inaudible) thank you.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Thank you. (Applause.) I might add thank you for your service, as well, too. And to the Korean War vets and the Vietnam vets, and Desert Storm vets -- all of those who have served over the course of the last 50 or 60 years -- we're grateful for your service to the nation.\nMRS. CHENEY: And I just want to say, I always think of it in historic perspective, the sacrifice that you made has helped us to live the lives of freedom that we enjoy. And that's why I'm so touched when I meet someone who has a son serving now, because what your son is doing is going to make sure that his children and our children and grandchildren for many generations will enjoy the freedoms that we've known, and even more. (Applause.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Let's do one more from back here.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, the President has made it clear that we want to do everything we can to reduce the incidence of abortion. He clearly is opposed to that. He and I have traditionally always supported the pro-life position. I think one of the things -- (Applause.) One of the things that he's proudest of is that we were able to get a ban on partial birth abortion through the Congress, and he was able to sign it into law. It's now a law of the land. (Applause.)\nSo we'll continue to do everything we can to work in the direction of reducing the incidence of abortion. We don't at this stage, obviously, have an overwhelming majority opinion to abolish abortion at this stage. But we've looked for those areas when we can improve it in terms of questions, for example, of parental consent for minors, the Laci Peterson law, for example, and other steps that we've taken and will continue to believe very deeply in a culture of life. And that will be a cornerstone of our administration. (Applause.)\nSomebody back here. Would you wait for the microphone a second so we make sure we --\nQ Thank you, Mr. Vice President and Madam. We have a son who is presently deployed in the Air Force right now, so we join together in the effort.\nBut as we look around in this very large body, there's an obvious lack of color. The question is, according to the reports, there are many persons of color who are not really impressed with Senator Kerry at this particular point. What efforts are being made, what strategy is being made on the part of the administration in terms of seeking to recapture this disaffected and in some cases right now undecided black vote, number one? And number two, those of us in the black community and other communities who are concerned that our community no longer be co-opted by the Democratic Party -- what ways can we help, or are we being enlisted to help in that effort to recover that group of people?\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, you helped by being here this morning, for starters. We appreciate your presence. (Applause.)\nGeorge Bush believes very deeply, obviously, in the whole concept of equal opportunity and non-discrimination in our society. I think all you have to do is look at his administration and see the extent to which he has supported and made specific decisions aimed directly at taking advantage of the talent and the skill and the expertise of people without regard to race, color, ethnic background. You can look at our Cabinet -- from Rod Paige, who is our Secretary of Education, was a former superintendent of public construction in Houston, African American ; to Colin Powell, Condi Rice, who occupy two out of the top three or four foreign policy positions in this administration; Alfonso Jackson, at HUD. We've got a wide range of folks who have come to join the administration and serve very ably and very well, and I would say this President to a greater extent than any President I ever worked for is absolutely color-blind in terms of how he proceeds. He selects people based on merit and believes very deeply that t\nWe've also worked very hard in a number of other areas to support minority-owned businesses, to make it possible for businesses to grow and develop and prosper -- that economic opportunity, obviously, is crucial in terms of guaranteeing equality of opportunity across the board for people all across our society. He's been a staunch advocate and supporter of that, as well, too. And if you look at his record in Texas, or his activities in education, No Child Left Behind -- tried very hard to make certain that the federal government is, in fact, an effective advocate, if you will, for equality of opportunity in our society. I think that's the best testament I can offer in terms of his commitments and his belief. (Applause.)\nQ Thank you for coming to Davenport, Mr. Vice President, and you, too, Mrs. Cheney. My question is related to the nation's energy policy. I wonder how you felt about releasing the strategic oil. And if so, when and why or why not? Thank you --\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: The strategic --\nQ Oil supply.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Strategic Petroleum Reserve, right. Well, the reason that was set up was for a dire emergency -- not just a situation in which there are price pressures because of the short supply, obviously. We've got a situation now where prices have gone up because worldwide demand has increased, and worldwide supply hasn't kept pace with that demand. So we got the situation where we're talking about $2 gasoline and $40 oil and so forth. But the reason we set up the Strategic Petroleum Reserve back in the '70s, and maintain it since is to deal with the emergency that would arise if, for example, something were to suddenly happen to one of the major nations supplying petroleum to the United States on an imported basis and they were out of business, or they no longer were exporting to the U.S., so that we were dealing with a situation where we lost 5 or 6 million barrels a day, for example, out of the 20 million barrels a day that we currently consume. That would be the kind of national crisis that woul\nThere's a temptation always to go out and want to say, well, gee, if we put some out on the market now we can knock 20 or 30 cents off the price of a gallon of gasoline. But in reality, when you consider how much is in the SPRO, you might get a little relief for a short period of time, but then you'd find yourself in a situation down the road where you'd use up part of the SPRO and all of a sudden one of those crises arises for which it was originally designed, you lose a major source of supply, and then you'd be in a real world of hurt. So we think it's important to save it for that true national emergency, that that's key.\nYes, sir. Microphone here.\nQ Thank you, Mr. Vice President, Mrs. Cheney. I just wanted to get back to -- you mentioned economic developments in response to this gentleman's question about engaging more minorities in the party, and to this woman's question about her company closing, and I was privileged of being at the White House when the President announced an increase of 500,000 mortgages, a commitment to do 500,000 mortgages for new, minority home buyers. I also serve on the President's Community Development Financial Institutions Advisory Board. And one of the things that occurred just last week is the announcement from Chairman Don Powell, from the FDIC, that they were going to change the system for how they hold the banks hands to the fire in making loans and mortgages and credit available for economic development for affordable housing, for what have you. What they have proposed to do in Iowa, for example, of the 297 banks that the FDIC regulates, 296 will no longer have the comprehensive CRA -- community reinvestment act evalu\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, one, I'm not familiar with the decision he made, but we'll certainly take a look at it. The FDIC is something of an independent regulatory agency, but I do know Mr. Powell, and I'll be happy to pursue it when I go back. I'll look into it and see what the story is.\nCONGRESSMAN NUSSLE: Mr. Vice President, I'm sorry to have to be the heavy, but we have time for one more question.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: All right, thanks, Jim. Who's got the microphone here?\nQ Mr. Vice President --\nMRS. CHENEY: I vote for the child. (Laughter and applause.) I'll take one more after this.\nQ What's the most important thing you do besides taking care of America? (Laughter and applause.)\nMRS. CHENEY: What a nice question.\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: That was a good question. (Applause.) Well, I'm going to take a quick crack at that, and then I'm going to throw it to my wife and see if she can answer -- (Laughter.) She got us into this position.\nThat's a fascinating question. I consider myself extremely privileged to have the opportunity to serve in public office. I have always been grateful for the opportunity to serve, especially with this President and the other Presidents I've worked for. But I guess, the most important thing I do as an individual is my family -- my daughters, my granddaughters, and we've got a new 8-week-old grandson, our fourth grandchild. And when you think about -- I think all of us do, at least I've reached that stage of my life, maybe, where you work hard, you have a career, or business or whatever it is you do that in the final analysis, what you leave behind is the next generation, your kids and grandkids. And one of the reasons its so important to do what's right for America, to take care of America, as you say, is them -- that we want to make sure that the nation they inherit from us is safer and more secure than the one that we were privileged to live, that the American people are always going to be free and have the\nMRS. CHENEY: Well, I just think that was a wonderful answer. I can't top that. (Applause.) However -- (Laughter.) I have a story that I just think makes that answer -- fills it out in a way. When Dick was born, he was born on Franklin Roosevelt's birthday. And his grandfather wrote to his parents and said that they should let the President know that Dick had been born.\nNow, this is such a wonderful story because Dick's grandfather hadn't gone to high school. He hadn't had the opportunity to go to high school. And he was working as a cook on the Union Pacific Railroad. His circumstances were very modest, as were the circumstances of Dick's parents. But this granddad who was living in a railroad car, he said to himself, the President ought to know about my grandson. And I think that's such an American story because every generation has wanted this country to offer even more blessings to children and grandchildren, and every generation has had the confidence to believe it would come true.\nDick and I were talking about this story the other day. It's one of his favorites. And he said, I don't think my grandpa would be surprised that I'm Vice President. (Laughter.) Not because he was such an amazing baby, but just because -- just because grand parents have those hopes for their children, and the burden of every generation and the obligation of every generation is to make sure that our children and grandchildren have that freedom to grow up and the opportunity that we have known on and on into the years ahead. So your answer was wonderful. I just wanted to tell the story. (Applause.)\nTHE VICE PRESIDENT: Let me again, thank all of you for being here this morning. Let me thank our good friend Jim Nussle. There's Jim over here. (Applause.) Jim does a great job as your congressman. We've worked together over the years in many capacities, but he's a superb representative for Iowa, as is Chuck Grassley, who is one of my best friends in the Senate. So you're very well served by your delegation. (Applause.) And we really do appreciate the fact that you're all here this morning, that you're actively and aggressively involved in that campaign. Remember us on November 2nd, but whatever you do, get out there and jump in with both hands. Remember that last elections got resolved by a handful of votes in one state, and every state is important. Iowa is going to be a vital part of the calculation this time around. And so take advantage of the opportunity you've got to help shape the future of the nation.\nSo thank you very much for being here. (Applause.)",

        "raw_content": "The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins (2015)\n409 [excluding acknowledgments]\nRachel is an alcoholic who commutes to and from London every day on the train. On her commute she passes the house in which she lived with her now ex-husband. He still lives there with his new wife and baby. To distract herself from looking in on her old life, she creates an idealised fantasy world for the couple she often sees a couple of doors down. When the wife in this couple goes missing, Rachel finds herself inserted into the investigation both by circumstances and then through her own continued bad choices. But will Rachel find the truth or will her alcohol addled brain only show her what she thinks she knows?\nThe Girl on the Train is a well written psychological thriller with an intricate design. The plot is engaging and has several convincing red herrings scattered throughout it.\nThe Girl on the Train is written in a diary-like format from the three main female characters point of view: Rachel \u2014 the eponymous girl on the train, Anna \u2014 Rachel\u2019s ex-husband\u2019s new wife, and Megan \u2014 the girl whose relationship Rachel idealises. The timeline jumps around considerably so the diary format helps the reader keep track of where they are chronologically within the story. It also allows the reader a twice daily insight into what has happened with that character. What they have thought, felt and seen in the time since we last heard from them. This style gives a much more intimate glance into the story and characters than it would if The Girl on the Train was written in a third-person perspective.\nI did find that none of the characters in The Girl on the Train are actually likeable. Rachel is pitiable because of all she has been through, but I wouldn\u2019t call her a likeable character. I found all of the other primary characters positively loathsome. Adultery, abuse and anger management problems run rampant through the characters as do jealousy and mistrust.\nIn saying that, I don\u2019t feel that characters have to be likeable to make a good story. Did I like Megan? Not particularly. Did I want to know what happened to her, how and why? Absolutely. The lack of likeability makes these very flawed characters seem more realistic and certainly more suited for the situations in which they have all found themselves.\nI recommend The Girl on the Train for readers looking for a modern whodunnit with substance and an array of interesting, if not likeable, characters.\nThis entry was posted in Book Reviews and tagged book, books, novel, paula hawkins, review, the girl on the train, Thriller.

        "raw_content": "On Old Flames\nArticle by Kris\nWe\u2019ve all been there. Standing in a queue at a shop, maybe, or on a bus, lost in thought, in a bit of a funk. Your job is going nowhere fast, family and friends are busy with their own lives. There\u2019s nothing particular coming up to look forward to, and no-one in your life who seems like a great prospect right now. And that\u2019s the exact moment that it happens.\nAll the while you\u2019ve been here, the person from your past who you can\u2019t stop thinking about has been unwittingly sharing your space unseen, as if the years between you mean nothing. You had a thing for a while, but it never became a Thing, as though your orbits never quite aligned. There was a spark, but only a brief one, and never quite hot enough for it to catch light.\nYour eyes meet and there\u2019s that moment of mutual recognition, the surprise, the disbelieving stare. And then you both flick the hair away from your faces and mutter awkward greetings at one another\u2019s shoes, and then the smile appears that makes you wonder why you ever let them slip away from us, and we begin to think, \u2018Maybe, just maybe\u2026\u2019\nA couple of weeks back, I was excited by the news that Avernum 3: Ruined World was set for release on Steam. Avernum 3 is (unsurprisingly) the last game in a trilogy, a remake of an old game from an original trilogy called Exile III which was released as a demo with one of my earliest PCs. So old was this title that downloading the content wasn\u2019t even an option \u2013 instead, you installed from a CD and paid for a key that you entered into the game itself to unlock the content. AAA titles weren\u2019t a thing, and the trashy 2D graphics mattered not one jot, because the writing was skilful, the world felt vibrant and surprises, both humorous and violent, were many and thrilling.\nBut its spiritual successor made me feel \u2026 conflicted. There was a joyful moment when I emerged into the map of Fort Emergence, one of the game\u2019s early locations, where the map has been faithfully recreated right down to the tiny storeroom where you collect your initial goods (and back in the day, I completely missed it for the first few playthroughs, meaning I was gutted en masse by even the softest enemies). There were one or two glorious junctures where the flat token graphics from the game have become lovingly reimagined in the brave new world of 3D, and I felt a little stirring in my heart.\nThe problem was, no matter how much I willed it to, this spark did not catch fire. Six characters in your starting team had become four. Not a big thing, but when you need two fighters, a direct damage mage and a priest to heal, your scope for trying one or two experimental roles in addition to these core stereotypes is diminished. But that wasn\u2019t a problem! Spellcasting had been streamlined \u2013 for this, read simplified in lots of small, disappointing ways \u2013 and little things like the use of torches, lockpicks and the need to find food were all taken out. Want to bash down a door in unsubtle fashion? Tough. Work on your Tool Lore, which handily combined several other skills from the previous incarnation in one.\nEverything I remembered from the original was there, from the glorious large maps to the names of the characters, but some inexplicable thing that made the original game so special was missing. It had gotten lost somewhere in a minefield of strange design decisions that made Avernum 3 feel like it was somehow less than the original.\nMedia gets remade. This is something that happens to games, to films, and to books. TV shows are rebooted. For every good remake (Elite Dangerous!) there\u2019s another that sucks horribly, and plenty more that are just moribund. Original stories are reimagined \u2013 though thinking about this now, I struggle to think of any instance where I would regard the remake or reimagining as a wonder in its own right. Instead, all that comes to mind is repetitive, dour examples \u2013 the latest Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was the film that taught us that Johnny Depp will never be an acting colossus like Gene Wilder, and the new Ghostbusters was strangely insipid. I would freely accept the point that as an old white guy, I shouldn\u2019t expect all new media to be made with me in mind as the target demographic, but I can\u2019t help thinking that part of the reason for the perceived lack of quality reboots is at least partly due to commercial expectations trumping the willingness of producers to take risks.\nAvernum 3 can hardly be the first game to be accused of oversimplifying its mechanics. When Sims 4 was released, there was a lot of critical commentary about the way that it had once again reverted to the tried and tested ground of the original \u2013 coloured wallpaper and furniture, rather than bells and whistles. The main thing that attracted critics\u2019 ire in the early days was the decision to remove swimming pools \u2013 a mainstay of the series that featured in many fan stories, since it\u2019s an easy way to ensure \u2026 timely inheritance. Once again, the criticism here was that the new game does less in some way than the original \u2013 and it matters not to fans how many new features have been added, only that something they knew and loved is missing.\nThere comes a moment with that person from the past, perhaps over coffee when you remember that they\u2019ll only drink a Grande, Iced, Sugar-Free, Vanilla Latte with Soy Milk when you\u2019re quite happy to drink anything. Or maybe you\u2019ve been to the cinema and they\u2019ve spent the hour immediately after the film waxing lyrical about the camera angles, analysing the weak dialogue and critiquing the poor characterisation and all you want to say is, \u2018I ONLY ASKED IF YOU LIKED IT. A SIMPLE YES OR NO WOULD HAVE SUFFICED.\u2019 Whatever the issue is, at some point you have to reflect that the new situation was always going to be different from how you remembered the old, and if you\u2019re going to persist with that, you need to adjust accordingly. And persist I will with Avernum 3, since I know the issue may not be the game, but my expectations thereof.\nSo is it worth revisiting your old flames \u2013 those films, books and computer games that have been remade? Well, yes \u2026 but with due caveats. It\u2019s no good expecting a modern reimagining to invest you in the soapy nostalgic goo of another time in your life \u2013 you need to be honest with yourself and step into that flame with your eyes wide open.\nThis entry was posted in Kris and tagged article, avernum 3, charlie and the chocolate factory, discussion, elite dangerous, exile iii, ghostbusters, johnny depp, nostalgia, reboot, remake, ruined world, sims 4, the sims 4, video games.

Universities and colleges throughout the U.S. require applicants to take the SAT or ACT as part of their evaluation package. This course will prepare you for both tests.\nBoth the ACT and the SAT contain verbal and math question types. SAT/ACT Preparation Part 2 will give you all the information you need to do well on the math questions of the ACT and the new SAT. The ACT math tests your knowledge of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and basic statistics. This course provides you with a complete math review of all these subjects. We'll also show you how to use your time wisely so that you finish as many math questions as possible in the 60 minutes the ACT gives you for the math test.\nBeginning with the March 2016 exam, the SAT math questions have changed a bit. They eliminated the quantitative comparison questions and added questions on functions and graphing functions. The lessons in this course are designed to prepare you for those changes. In addition to reviewing arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and basic statistics, we'll cover functions and other algebra II subjects now tested on the SAT.\nIn addition to preparing you for specific question types on both exams, this course will give you pointers on time management, anxiety relief, scoring, and general standardized test-taking. Weekly assignments encourage you to work with your fellow classmates and your instructor to maximize your performance on all aspects of the math questions of the ACT and SAT. Taken with Part 1, this course will prepare you to excel in all sections of the undergraduate college entrance exams and provide you with the means to achieve your best potential score!",

        "title": "Is New South Wales about to crash its curriculum? \u2013 Filling the pail",
        "raw_content": "Is New South Wales about to crash its curriculum?\nHot on the heels of the underwhelming \u201cGonski 2\u201d review of education in Australia, the Coalition government in the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW) has announced a review of the curriculum there. This is a moment of exquisite risk for education in NSW. Despite the fact that absolutely nobody of influence will pay attention to what I think, I feel a duty to play Cassandra.\nFirstly, the NSW government seems to have swallowed the Gonski panel\u2019s line on the \u2018general capabilities\u2019 of the Australian curriculum, seeking to \u2018clarify\u2019 the way that they are taught. This is accompanied by rhetoric about, \u2018how we can best support students to develop that mindset and those skills in the modern world.\u2019 This is the same, tired, jobs-that-don\u2019t-exist yet mantra that has been seducing politicians across the world. Even if the only purpose of education was preparation for work, which it is not, then the best bet would be to teach students lots of knowledge about the world, because it is knowledge that we draw upon when solving problems and innovating. Here\u2019s Dylan Wiliam again (courtesy of @primarypercival):\n\"We have to put knowledge back in the curriculum. The skills-based curriculum, that a lot of countries have adopted, is actually lowering student achievement.\" @dylanwiliam nailing it at Best In Class 2018 on April 19th. pic.twitter.com/iPvnfAwRxr\n\u2014 Andrew Percival (@primarypercival) April 20, 2018\nBy contrast, generic skills don\u2019t really exist. Insomuch as there exist heuristics that can be applied in a range of situations, they are limited in scope, depend on knowledge to apply them and are more characteristic of novice performance than expert performance in any given area. It is a waste of everybody\u2019s time to write \u2018critical thinking\u2019 and \u2018creativity\u2019 into the curriculum in any general sense. Instead, these should be subject-specific aims.\nYou may think that an effort to \u2018declutter\u2019 the NSW curriculum might see an end to these capabilities, but instead, it seems that the review seeks to declutter the curriculum by placing even more emphasis on literacy and numeracy in primary school. This is based on the same flawed model that supports the general capabilities \u2013 it assumes that literacy, in particular, is a general skill that can be improved by practicing literacy. If we are not doing well enough at literacy then simply drive the literacy agenda harder, and harder, taking more and more curriculum time. Anyone got a bigger hammer?\nBeyond the initial stages of reading and writing, literacy is not really a generic skill. Instead, it is developed through its use for specific purposes. If you want children to read well then they need a large vocabulary and access to ideas about the world. If you want them to write then the first question to ask is \u2018for what purpose?\u2019 Teaching a curriculum rich in knowledge of history, geography, science and the arts builds the world knowledge that is needed to access more advanced academic texts and reduces the gap between those who have access to these ideas at home and those who do not. For instance, you will not have understood the third sentence of this blog post unless you have sufficient background knowledge \u2013 no generic skill will help you.\nSqueezing subjects like history and the arts in order to find even more time for literacy is perverse and self-defeating. If you want to know what it looks like then consider No Child Left Behind in the U.S.; hardly a resounding success. Yet, in education policy, the irony is that we never learn.\nPrevious Post RCTs and p\u2019s\nNext Post Why you should be interested in statistical significance\n6 thoughts on \u201cIs New South Wales about to crash its curriculum?\u201d\nThe reason nobody of influence will pay attention to arguments for a knowledge-rich curriculum is because they can\u2019t \u2013 at least not without conceding that their influence is based on the same fiction of generic skills.\nOver the past year I have run these arguments with many influential people in education policy and got nowhere. It has nothing to do with evidence, something to do with ideology, but most to do with psychology.\nI hate to play amateur psychologist but can\u2019t help note that the most influential people in education today \u2013 whether in government, universities or think tanks \u2013 are generalists. Or, and perhaps more importantly, they think of themselves this way. They credit their professional success to a set of general and highly developed capabilities that ordinary folk don\u2019t have (or, because of the factory model of schooling, yadda yadda, didn\u2019t have an opportunity to develop).\nSo in order for them to concede the argument about general capabilities and the school curriculum, they would have to entertain one of two possibilities:\na) general capabilities don\u2019t really exist and their professional success is based on networking, bluster and the \u201cMatthew\u201d effect\nb) their general capabilities \u2013 like manipulating meeting outcomes, creating compelling Powerpoint slide decks and using the latest management jargon \u2013 are misapplied to education in the same way they can be misapplied to any field by staying at an abstract, policy level. That is, I don\u2019t really know anything about education but if I stick to the big picture and capture the zeitgeist then nobody will care because the they are bluffing like me (which is why it is important that teachers are not to get too involved in these discussions\u2026).\nAs neither of these possibilities will help their careers or (ironically, enough) self-esteem, they cannot accept that a knowledge-rich curriculum is important.\nOr, as Thomas Sowell noted, \u201cVirtually no idea is too ridiculous to be accepted, even by very intelligent and educated people, if it provides a way for them to feel special and intelligent\u201d.\nEducators have every incentive to claim the education is a profession which demands special training that can be applied to teaching any subject\u2013even those as diverse as sociology and physics (never mind vocational subjects!).In truth, the instinct to instruct the young is so basic to the survival of our species that teaching might best be considered a primary skill like walking or speaking\u2013one which is acquired with minimal explicit training.\nThe only formal training I ever received was a Methods of Instruction course delivered by a senior NCO in the British Army in the space of a weekend. It anticpated Kirschner, Sweller and Clark by at least a generation. Indeed, the latter serves mostly as an affirmation of what good teachers have always known.\ncorrection: Sowell wrote \u201c\u2026special and important\u201d.\nI have frequently found that \u2018experts\u2019 really know very little and that most of their expertise is bluffing, general talk and smoke and mirrors. The contrast with someone who actually knows something about a subject is often hilarious \u2013 though the expert never gives ground and tends to point out that their opponent is not seeing the big picture etc. This scenario frequently applies to economists.\nSqueezing subjects like history and the arts in order to find even more time for literacy is perverse and self-defeating. If you want to know what it looks like then consider No Child Left Behind in the U.S.; hardly a resounding success.\nYes! Thank you for pointing this out.\nThe trouble is, the \u2018generic skills\u2019 crowd are noisy: prominent business people being a prime example. Noting that \u2018business\u2019 is the most vacuous area for following meaningless, unresearched fashion; just look at the plethora of empty books about \u2018leadership\u2019 and \u2018strategy\u2019: more to do with voodoo than science.",

        "raw_content": "Although Italian fabrics, craft techniques, and accessories have long been staples of international high style, Italian fashion, like American sportswear, began its ascent to the world stage only after the Second World War. During the postwar economic boom of the 1950s and \u201960s, aristocratic Italian couturiers such as Simonetta, Alberto Fabiani, Capucci, and Valentino captured international attention with elegant yet comfortable ensembles\u2014epitomized in palazzo pajamas\u2014crafted from innovative textiles in striking color combinations. Italian sportswear played variations on this chord of casual chic, introducing stretch jumpsuits, capri pants, and wild prints. Italian style attained worldwide fame not only through the usual conduits of fashion magazines and newspapers, but also via the movies, in Italian films such as Federico Fellini\u2019s La Dolce Vita (1960), and American productions like William Wyler\u2019s Roman Holiday (1953) and Joseph Mankiewicz\u2019s Barefoot Contessa (1954), which were both set in Italy.\nInaugurated in Florence in 1950, runway shows played up a connection with Italy\u2019s heritage of Renaissance art and helped promote Italian fashion. But many of the couture houses moved their presentations to Rome, leaving boutique fashion and accessories behind. During the 1970s, Krizia\u2018s Mariuccia Mandelli led the movement to transfer the Italian ready-to-wear shows to Milan, where she was joined by the houses of Armani, Missoni, Versace, and many others. Today, Milan has grown into an international fashion center rivaling Paris, London, and New York.\nMandelli first established her firm\u2014which she named Krizia after a character in Plato\u2019s dialogue on female vanity\u2014in Milan forty-five years ago. Since its debut in 1954, Krizia has been on the cutting edge. As the boundaries between art and fashion continue to shift, Mandelli walks in the footsteps of avant-garde artists such as Sonia Delaunay, Natalia Goncharova, and Kasimir Malevich, using fabric like a painter\u2019s canvas, and her sculptural creations further blur distinctions between the two worlds. Inspired not only by art, but also by architecture, theater, cinema, popular cartoons, and the circus, her designs feature an array of special effects, such as allover pleats, lavish figurative embroidery, and intarsia knits. Integral to her design process are both fascination with textiles and delight in unexpected combinations.\nMandelli was one of the first to embrace minimalism, showcasing simple, clean, and sophisticated collections at a time when fashion had not yet embraced that aesthetic. The garments she presented in 1964 at Florence\u2019s Pitti Palace were Spartan in their structural simplicity and restricted black-and-white palette. Her elegant shorts for day and evening, which were dubbed \u201chot pants\u201d by the media, made their initial runway appearance in 1971. In 1978 she introduced pleats\u2014used in never-before-seen ways\u2014beginning with an accordion-pleated raincoat. In later collections some of her pleated garments took on architectural qualities, tiered like the Chrysler Building or spiraling like Frank Lloyd Wright\u2019s Guggenheim Museum and Vladimir Tatlin\u2019s Monument to the Third International, while others drew inspiration from the natural world, resembling shells, butterflies, and flower petals. Her artistic sources have included Charles Comfort Tiffany\u2019s lilies, Ferdinand Khnopff\u2019s sphinx-women, Oskar Schlemmer\u2019s theatrical designs, Alexander Calder\u2019s mobiles, and Alberto Burri\u2019s clay works. In her knitwear collections of the 1970s and \u201980s, Mandelli invented a veritable bestiary, ranging from leopard prints and zebra stripes to realistic tapestries of the great cats. A selection from Mandelli\u2018s more recent designs is also on view.\nThe exhibition has been curated and the installation devised by motion picture set designers Dante Ferretti and Francesca Lo Schiavo, and costume designer Gabriella Pescucci\nStarts Thursday, Apr 15, 1999\nEnds Friday, May 07, 1999\nExhibition Types: Italian Art",

        "raw_content": "Huskers Hope to Weather the Weather, and the Hawkeyes\nOn Tuesday, Nebraska snapped a four-game losing streak with an offensive explosion, downing Kansas State in Manhattan 11-9. Three different Huskers hit home runs as Nebraska took advantage of several Wildcat mistakes to rack up 11 runs on just eight hits.\n\u201cIt was nice as a team to get everybody rolling,\u201d sophomore outfielder Mojo Hagge said. \u201cEverybody was hitting, everybody was doing well and competing. Just having that competition as a team and battling, just like at Ohio State game three (a 15-14 loss), it just shows what we can do as an offense and what we should be doing consistently.\u201d\nThe Huskers may have gotten the win, but Coach Darin Erstad is focused more on cleaning up some of Nebraska\u2019s own mistakes that made the game more competitive than it could have been; he\u2019s focused more on the process than the results.\nThe next step in that process is a weekend series against Iowa (20-10) at Haymarket Park. However, like it has been a handful of times over the last few weeks, the weather could be a problem.\nWith the forecast calling for cold temperatures and potentially snow on Saturday, the Huskers and Hawkeyes will play a double-header on Friday (first game at 2:05 p.m., second at 6 p.m.) while game three of the series will be on either Saturday or Sunday depending on the weather. The Huskers have already had one game canceled and two postponed this month.\n\u201cWe\u2019re just getting ready for the weather,\u201d Hagge said. \u201cIt\u2019s not going to be ideal, but we haven\u2019t played in ideal weather yet this year so we\u2019ve gotten used to it and we\u2019re ready to take advantage of a team that\u2019s not ready to play in it.\u201d\nAccording to Erstad, Luis Alvarado will start game one on the mound while Matt Waldron starts game two. Matt Warren is slated to start in game three \u2014 if it happens \u2014 but Erstad said they could use him out of the bullpen if they need him to get a win on Friday.\n\u201cFrom our standpoint, we\u2019ll try to win the first one and if you\u2019re behind by a lot, you\u2019ll probably start to have to manage it for the second one,\u201d Ersatz said about managing his pitching staff during a double-header. \u201cIt\u2019s one of those things where we\u2019ll go after the first game and see what happens from there.\u201d\nThe pitching staff has been ravaged by injuries and has gone through a lot of struggles throughout the season, but catcher Jesse Wilkening said he\u2019s tried to stay even-keeled in his communication with the guys on the mound.\n\u201cI\u2019ve had a lot of guidance from Coach [Mike] Kirby and Coach [Ted] Silva. They\u2019ve helped me a lot with that in the past. Everything is the same \u2014 go out there with the same attitude. Every guy is different with how you talk to them. It just depends, some guys it\u2019s more pumped up and other guys it\u2019s more calm, it just depends.\u201d\nThe bullpen did get a boost when Jake McSteen and Reece Eddins returned from injury during Nebraska\u2019s series against Michigan State last weekend. Eddins underwent Tommy John surgery last season.\n\u201cI was fired up,\u201d Wilkening said. \u201cI was so excited to see Reece come out after a year or so, almost to the day I think. He had a big smile on his face and I couldn\u2019t help it either. And Jake McSteen, he\u2019s been battling that arm thing, so that was super exciting for everybody. I was super-pumped for him and gave him a hug after the game, said \u2018welcome back.\u2019\u201d\nAccording to Erstad, shortstop Angelo Altavilla will be available after missing some time with a hamstring injury.\n\u201cOf course, he wants to play every inning of every game,\u201d Erstad said. \u201cI don\u2019t know if being out for 10 days then playing a double-header is the right thing to do, so I\u2019m still talking to him about that, but we\u2019ll use him in some regard; it just depends on which games.\u201d\nInfielder Brison Cronenbold remains out with a stress reaction that Erstad said hasn\u2019t gotten any better.\n\u201cThey\u2019re a solid ball club,\u201d Erstad said about the Hawkeyes. \u201cThey\u2019ve always been well-coached, they take care of the baseball, they really don\u2019t give you much from a free-pass standpoint so we\u2019re going to have to generate a lot of our own offense. Wind\u2019s going to be howling out so I\u2019m sure we\u2019re going to take some lumps and hopefully deliver some as well. They get lined up and get on schedule, they\u2019re pretty darn good when they\u2019re laying with a lead. We\u2019re just going to have to go out, play our game and be sharp. We\u2019re going to have to not be reactive to what they\u2019re doing; we have to get on them and put a little pressure on them and make them feel uncomfortable.\u201d\nWilkening said he doesn\u2019t pay too much attention to what the rest of the league is doing, but he does hope to see plenty of fans out at Haymarket Park on Friday as the Huskers take on the team that knocked them out of last year\u2019s Big ten Tournament.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know really how they\u2019re doing; I don\u2019t look into it that much,\u201d Wilkening said. \u201cI kind of just stay with our own team, our own club. It\u2019s always a dog fight, it\u2019s always a great series to come out and watch, first off, because it\u2019s a rival, so it\u2019s a lot of fun to play in and hopefully [we can get] a little redemption for last year.\u201d\nSpeaking of the Tournament, at 2-6 in conference play and 15-16 overall, the Huskers have a lot of work to do just to qualify for the postseason. However, Erstad\u2019s style is to focus on the day at hand and the team isn\u2019t even talking about the tournament which will be held at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha this year.\n\u201cWe just want to come out every day playing like it\u2019s the Big Ten Tournament, competing like it\u2019s a regional,\u201d Hagge said. \u201cWe just want to give it our best every day and if we go to the Big Ten Tournament, great; if we win the Big Ten Tournament, great; if we win the CWS, that\u2019s great. But we just need to come out every day ready to go and compete like it\u2019s our last.\u201d\nTags: Darin Erstad, Nebraska vs. Iowa, Angelo Altavilla, Brison Cronenbold, Reece Eddins, Mojo Hagge, Jake McSteen, Jesse Wilkening, Baseball, Nebraska, 2018",

        "raw_content": "War was a game the boys played\nPostcard: Star Series: published by G.D.&D. London. Shared on Flickr Creative Commons by Pellethepoet\nWhen I was growing up, war was a game the boys played. It was filled with arguments over who was dead and who was not, who was in charge, who was good, who was bad. The boys played in the mud of an eroded ditch on the far side of the school playground \u2013 they called it The Trenches. They played in the rain and in the snow. They used sticks, clumps of dirt and their imaginations to make their Howitzers, MK-III\u2019s and grenades. They seemed endlessly fascinated and engaged in it.\nThe girls were sometimes invited to play as nurses, or if you were lucky (in some eyes), they let you be a medic. Nurses hovered on the sidelines ready to comfort the soldiers. The medic\u2019s job was to help lever boys out of the knee-deep silt then go back to rescue their rubber boots from being sucked down as dozens of boys squelched around in the muck.\nAs I grew into adulthood, it was easy to tune out in history classes at university, change the channel when war movies came on, and ignore news stories as wars erupted overseas. It was all unpleasant and I was disinterested and untouched \u2014\n\u201cYou\u2019re dead! You have to fall down, I shot you\u201d\n\u201cNo, I got you first!\u201d\nI\u2019m older now and wiser \u2014 I watch the news, I\u2019m a teacher librarian, I\u2019m interested in History \u2014 and now there is a gap. I have questions and I want to document my learning and my research as I look for answers. That\u2019s why I started this blog.\nIt\u2019s been 100 years since the Great War. My grandfather \u2013 like nearly every other young man from the Dominion of Canada \u2013 went off to fight. I don\u2019t know how and I don\u2019t understand why and I\u2019d like to make some sense of it all.\nI never knew my grandfather\u2014 he died before I was born. And that\u2019s the other reason for taking this research journey. I hope that as I piece together information from \u2018out there\u2019 with what\u2019s been passed down in the family, I will get a sense of who he was.\nThis entry was posted in Reflections and tagged about, grandfather, reason, war, why on April 22, 2015 by Catherine Hainstock.\nHere\u2019s Where I Started \u2192\n3 thoughts on \u201cWar was a game the boys played\u201d\nshivaunplozza April 23, 2015 at 9:28 am\nI\u2019m so looking forward to reading this blog as it continues, Cathy \u2013 can\u2019t wait to follow your journey of discovery and find out all about your grandfather.\nCatherine Hainstock Post author April 27, 2015 at 7:30 pm\nThanks Shivaun for your kind words.",

You can find Jeff on Instagram at @rigsby.\nI'm a Creative Director and Designer who creates logos, graphic tees, websites and branding for brands, musicians, and small businesses. Prior to working for myself, I spent a decade managing design teams at EXPRESS, Abercrombie & Fitch, and HOMAGE.\nWorking in retail can take it's toll on you personally and professionally. Ultimately, I decided that working for myself rather than for a brand would be healthier and more rewarding for me and my family.\nOne of my biggest challenges has been working in the present and prepping for future work. I wish I could just sit down each day and design without worrying about emails, hustling for new work, or invoices (I hate telling people how much something is going to cost). That being said the thrill of not knowing what's coming and what you may get to work on can be exciting. I'm not sure I'll ever overcome it, but I'm getting more comfortable with it.\nKnow your goals and the market you are entering. Do you want money, work-life balance, to love what you do, or fame? Whichever it is, if you're a designer or if you're selling a product make sure you have what it takes. In my experience, the people who succeed are very driven or have an idea that there is a high demand for. Ideally, you have both. Ask people around you for their thoughts on it. I love music and can play a few instruments, but I know better than to say: \"I'm gonna quit my job and start a music career.\" That's what hobbies are for.\nHonestly, I'd be very happy still sitting in my home office designing with my kids running around the house all day. In regards to work, I'd really enjoy being at a point where people are coming to me for work more than me seeking it out. A consistent flow of work with great clients allowing me to work on bigger and more exciting projects would be awesome.\nI'm obsessive when it comes to what I do for a living. Whether it was for another company or on my own I can't \"mail something in.\" I care, and care passionately about getting something to look great. I think when you put that into something for yourself and ultimately a client it breeds success.\nJeff Rigsby is a self-employed creative director & designer in Columbus, OH.

I have 8hours available per week to book but they don't have to be at a specific time. But I can't let the booking continue past 8hours.\nRight now I have to go through and re-jig my available hours as soon as it hits 8hours and then contact one on one anyone that has over booked. Which creates some friction that I'd rather not have.\nI've seen it suggested alot so pretty pretty pretty please give us a weekly limit for Xmas :)\nThank you for submitting this idea! You are not alone, this is a popular request. While I don't have a target date on when we will offer more than the current max event per day limit, I can share your suggestions with the team to discuss further.\nAdam Young January 09, 2019 17:08\nI also strongly want this feature.

Proof of God\u2019s Answered Promise!\nNovember 20, 2014 in Uncategorized | Tags: God, Heavenly Father, Holy Spirit, jesus christ, Promise, promise kept, what's in a name?\n\u201cThe descendents of Caleb the brother of Jarahmeel were Mesha, his firstborn who was the father of Ziph, and the sons of Mareshah, the father of Hebron.\u201d 1 Chronicles 2:42\n\u201cNow the Lord said to Abram: \u2018Get out of your country, from your family and from your father\u2019s house; to a land I will show you. I will make you a great nation. I will bless you.\u201d Genesis 12:1\nI have to admit, there are some books in the bible, some parts of The Word, that are harder to get a message from, for me, than others. The power of the burning bush, parting of the Red Sea, a Virgin birth, the birth, life, death and resurrection of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ are all so powerful. But the beginning of Chronicles with chapter after chapter of hard to pronounce names and a lot of begetting, it\u2019s tough for me to maintain focus.\nThank God Our Father Almighty that in His Mercy and Grace, He has sent the Holy Spirit to teach us that all parts of His Word, have something to teach us. During a time when much power and property were handed down based on genealogy it would be important to know from whence you came, but what does it speak to us today? In humble prayer and supplication, the Spirit gave to me some impactful insight into the wonderful impact on you and I today.\nYou see there was a man named Abram (God would change his name to Abraham). He was the head of a somewhat successful family of shepherds and herdsman. God came to him, called to him and made him a promise. If you will pack up and leave where you are, leave much of your extended family and what you know, go to a far off land that I tell you is rich in all that you need; God tells Abram, if you will do this, I will make you a great nation. I will bless you. Do know dear Sisters and Brothers, at this point, Abram had no children of his own, he had no idea about the land he was being sent to. But Abram trusted God. Abram answered God\u2019s call, packed up his immediate family and one nephew (Lot) and he set off.\nGod kept His promise. How do we know? 1 Chronicles. You see that listing of genealogy traces back to Abram (and even beyond). We can see that he, Abram, who had no offspring when God first called to him, truly became the father of a great nation. Another part of 1 Chronicles is a breakdown of the area of the promised land each main branch, each tribe inherited. Should you take the time to read through the names (which I highly encourage you to do), you\u2019ll come across names that you\u2019ll recognize. There\u2019s Jacob and Joseph and his brothers, Moses, David, Samuel the prophet and you might find yourself saying: \u201cHey I know that one!\u201d We know from the Word, that not one of the people listed was perfect; they all stumbled. However, that did not stop God from fulfilling the promise He made.\nGod will not go back on a promise. His word endures for ever. Today, you and I are or at least can be people of His promise. \u201cFor God so loved the world that He Gave His Only Begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life\u201d. God\u2019s promise to us. Also remember that Jesus Christ was and is God who came down to this earth. So the promises He made concerning seeking and finding, the Love of His Father, giving peace, are all God promises.\nDear Sisters and Brothers, you may find yourself in a place of wilderness today. You may feel you are in a place where God is far from you. You may even be in a place where you doubt that God can hear you or cares for you. You and I may have done something that we feel has separated us from Our Heavenly Father. Our faith may waiver, but be assured of this, God\u2019s faith never does. God never turns from You and I even should we try to turn from Him. God has made a promise to you and I and as long as we believe on Him, He will be faithful to that promise. The prince of this world shows us how easily the promises of the world are broken into shambles. He hopes to convince us that God\u2019s promises will not last either. Yet see in His Word, in a book like 1 Chronicles, through names like: Issachar and Abigail, how God is faithful to His promise. A sacred promise is called a covenant. There was a covenant with Abram that was shown in a sign. There is a second, more lasting, more powerful covenant, shown through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord, that God loves us. God will keep us. God\u2019s face will shine upon us. What\u2019s in a Name? What\u2019s important about your and my name? God knows it in His Heart. God loves it and the person it represents. God will fulfill His promise to it. Praise be His Name.\nOur Most Gracious Heavenly Father, we are in need of You. We can not successfully navigate this world on our own. We need a promise to hold on to, to get us through the day. Thank you Dear Father, that You have made a promise to us. Thank you most Merciful Father that You have seen fit to show us through Your Word just how faithful You are in keeping Your promises. Help us to carry Your Promise in our hearts. Being fully confident in Your Power to fulfill every aspect of the promise You have made. In turn help us to rely solely and souly on You, forgiving us when we are weak and strengthening us so that we will be fully in You. We pray this in the name of Your Most Precious Son, Jesus Christ. Amen\n\u00ab Grace by Association\nJoyously, Humbly Thankful \u00bb",

Its nice that you have brought this case to our notice. It is indeed a situation we all need to wait to be interpreted in a way that may question homeschooling. Do follow it up and share so shall we.\nMATHEW PEEDIKAYIL September 17, 2014 at 3:25 am\nThe positive side of this is that the law is on your side if at all you as a parent wish to admit your child who is being homeschooled back to school at any age. Regarding this particular case, there are many unexplained elements, especially about the type of education the child was receiving if at all, in all these years. There is no mention of homeschooling, which anyway has been proven superior to institutional schooling all over the world. As Swashikshan it would be worthwhile considering intervening in this matter if that happens.\nOh it is very atrocious on the part of the court to interpret the RTE this way. In that case why do we have NIOS at all. I know a lot of young boys and girls in Karnataka who are very active in Tennis circuit do not attend any regular schools. If they choose to join a school it would be the end of Tennis as the school is more worried and focused on attendance and tests. Thus we are killing indignity of a child in the area of interest and forcing them to study Maths and Science. It is indeed fascism of a different kind. I suggest some Lawyers in Delhi who are active in this field to file a review petition in SC\nsanjay mehta October 7, 2014 at 12:37 pm\neducation for all cannot be extrapolated to mean forced education for each.\nthe idea is not only stupid, but dangerous. while school can be great place to learn, for some, a school can systematically destroy creativity & ability to learn. this is especially more true in our poor country. if things don\u2019t work out for the child and parent, they must have the exit option.\nPingback: Notice issued to parents of school dropouts | Homeschooling India",

Always interesting work to be seen and interesting people to talk to. I had already been fortunate enough to have seen and been able to handle most of the books at the judging day a few weeks ago, which gives a certain advantage \u2013 books and bindings need to be handled to be fully appreciated. But they can also look quite different when show-cased and put on display. An example of that is this binding by Kaori Maki (Sundrie Pieces by George Herbert) which very deservedly won one of the Antiquarian Booksellers\u2019 Association\u2019s Highly Commended Certificates (judged by current President Angus O\u2019Neill of the Omega Bookshop).\nI hadn\u2019t really noticed the binding on the judging day \u2013 I can\u2019t actually recall seeing it (and may actually not have done) \u2013 but lit up and on show it is quite superb, giving at once both the impression of being carefully sculpted and of being fully alive. You can see it along with other bindings from the competition at the St. Bride Foundation in Bride Lane, off Fleet Street, until 27th November.\nAnother of the ABA\u2019s Highly Commended Certificates went to this equally deserving binding by Glenn Malkin on this year\u2019s set book (The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury). This one I had seen earlier and fully concurred with our President\u2019s judgement.\nThe set books are supplied by the Folio Society and the Society\u2019s own first prize for Best Set Book went to Mel Jefferson\nThis is the book which then went on to win the Mansfield Medal for the Best Book in the entire competition. Mel Jefferson also won the Harmatan Leather Prize for another quite different binding (you can see it, along with all the other prize-winners on the Designer Bookbinders website).\nThe runner-up for the Folio Society Prize went to Gillian Stewart for the binding below, which personally I liked just as much (a little more actually).\nI was also rather taken by Miranda Kemp\u2019s take on the set book, which won the St. Bride Foundation Prize for Finishing, although I seem to think it was being displayed the other way up at St. Bride\u2019s last night.\nBut the binding I liked the best of all was Clare Bryan\u2019s interpretation of The Illustrated Man. I gave it my own Ash Rare Books Lettering Award for its imaginative use of letters and numbers, fully integrated into the overall design, and for its innovative use of technology \u2013 the design was somehow printed directly on to the leather in a technique I\u2019m not sure I\u2019ve come across in bookbinding before. Not conventional tooling by any means, but innovative and beautifully executed\nAnd \u2013 of course \u2013 what you can\u2019t possibly see here is the way the book comes alive as it slides out of its slip-case \u2013 as it slips past a diagonally striped transparent screen, the figures really do seem to flicker into life.

Its name was changed in 1955 to The Guild of Contemporary Bookbinders.\nOriginally the Guild was an informal group of about a dozen practising bookbinders, but gradually an increasing number of people with an interest in bookbinding wished to be associated with the Guild\u2019s activities and so, in 1968, a formal constitution was drawn up and the present name, Designer Bookbinders, was adopted.\nThe aims of The Bookbinding Competition have always been to encourage professionals, amateurs and students to produce originally designed and well bound books, and to give them the opportunity to exhibit their technical and artistic skills.\nThe Competition has been very successful in fulfilling these aims and its continuation is seen as essential to the vigour of the art of bookbinding in Britain today. Entry is open to all binders (except DB Fellows) who trained in Britain and who are resident in the UK at the time of completing their binding.\nThis article was first posted on the blog \"The Bookhunter on Safari\" by Laurence Worms.\nLaurence Worms is the owner of Ash Rare Books, member and former president of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association (ABA) and affiliated to the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers.",

Soccer Football \u2013 World Cup \u2013 Semi Final \u2013 Croatia v England \u2013 Luzhniki Stadium, Moscow, Russia \u2013 July 11, 2018 England manager Gareth Southgate looks dejected after the match REUTERS/Damir SagoljSouthgate\u2019s team made a fine start to their quest to become the first England side to reach the final in 52 years but faded in the second half before going down 2-1 to the Croatians after extra time at the Luzhniki Stadium.\nGiven they arrived in Russia as rank outsiders, however, Southgate was invited to detail the positives from a campaign that appears to have repaired the strained relationship between England and its team. \u201cI think that\u2019s maybe something for a couple of days time, at the moment we all feel the pain of this defeat,\u201d he told reporters.\n\u201cDid we expect to be in this position? I don\u2019t realistically think any of us did. But when you\u2019ve got to this point and played as well as we have .\nyou want to take these opportunities in life. \u201cThe dressing-room is a really difficult place at the moment.\nThere will in time be positives to take, it\u2019s very hard now to put that into context, it\u2019s a bit too soon, really, because I think you have to suffer the result a little bit. \u201cIt\u2019s too easy to sometimes move on too quickly.\n\u201d Gifted a relatively soft draw by the early exit of a number of traditional World Cup superpowers, England reached the semi-finals of a major tournament for the first time since Euro 1996, when Southgate was part of the team. RARE CHANCES They had only previously been in the World Cup semi-finals in 1966, when they won the title on home soil, and 1990 so Southgate said he was trying to balance his pride in his young team with remembering how rare such chances are.\n\u201cTonight was a wonderful opportunity for us and you can\u2019t guarantee that those opportunities will come again,\u201d he added. \u201cBut equally we want to be a team that\u2019s hitting quarter-finals, semi-finals, finals \u2013 that was what we\u2019ve aimed to do in the long term and we\u2019ve proved that is possible.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve proved to ourselves that is possible and we\u2019ve proved to our country that is possible. Now we have a new benchmark, a new level of expectation.\nMany of these players have come of age and I couldn\u2019t be prouder of them.\u201d Southgate said playing regularly in big matches was a key stage of development for his players and that the way they dropped away in the second half was perhaps a result of their inexperience.\n\u201cMaybe (that was) a consequence of being ahead and being the least experienced team in the tournament with the chance to get to a World Cup final,\u201d he added. \u201cWhether that had an effect on us not wanting to take as many chances as we had, subconsciously, I don\u2019t know.\n\u201cWhen you get to this stage of the competition, the margins are fine ..\n. they\u2019ve taken two of their (chances) and we weren\u2019t able to respond.\n\u2190 JD.com's finance affiliate raises $2 billion, more than doubles valuation\nSoccer: Jubilant Croatia fans revel in World Cup semi-final win over England \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Home Arts & Culture Archives Full Frame: Dina Is Earning Acclaim for Its Portrait of Love and Autism. But Is It Illuminating or Exploitative?\nFull Frame: Dina Is Earning Acclaim for Its Portrait of Love and Autism. But Is It Illuminating or Exploitative?\nIt speaks to the high quality of Full Frame that the films in its perennial programming range in quality from \u201cabove average\u201d to \u201ctranscendent.\u201d Any chagrin is typically reserved for experimental submissions that might not suit the taste of some viewers or docs that delve into controversial subject matter. You certainly don\u2019t see many missteps among the invited films\u2014the ones not in competition but chosen due to the pedigree of the director or the film\u2019s previous accolades.\nForemost among the invited fare at Full Frame this year was Dina, winner of the U.S. Grand Jury Prize for documentaries at this year\u2019s Sundance Film Festival. At the Full Frame screening Friday evening, there was a spirited atmosphere in the packed house, including a number of other filmmakers overheard throughout the day eagerly anticipating the screening. A few patrons arrived clad in faux furs and clasping filled wine goblets. But one hundred minutes and no fewer than twenty walkouts later, Dina proved a discomforting, exasperating exercise.\nThe film\u2019s main subjects are Dina Buno and her fianc\u00e9, Scott Levin, an adult couple with autism living in a Philadelphia suburb. The narrative follows the forty-nine-year-old Dina and Scott through their impending nuptials, including the wedding planning, a bachelorette party, and a lot of self-doubt. Although it's seemingly cin\u00e9ma v\u00e9rit\u00e9, the footage is shot and edited so that the end product resembles an indie dramedy, complete with an eclectic soundtrack.\nDirectors Dan Sickles and Antonio Santini clearly come from a place of deep affection. According to press reports, Sickles has known Dina most of his life, since his father cofounded an organization for developmentally challenged adults, of which Dina is a long-time member. Unfortunately, that familiarity seems to blind the filmmakers to the objective perception of their portrayal. The film\u2019s incessant whimsy is grounded in all the \u201cfunny\u201d things Dina, Scott, and their autistic friends say and do, whether it\u2019s karaoke, the Macarena, or recounting their history of masturbation. There are copious scenes of Dina and Scott prattling like an old married couple. In these and elsewhere, Dina fails the \u201cbut for\u201d test: content that\u2019s largely unremarkable but for the fact that it\u2019s being conveyed by people with a disability.\nSickles and Santini were not present Friday, so it fell to a member of the post-production filmmaking team to parry a probing post-screening Q and A session. He insisted that the film\u2019s content was a collaborative effort between the directors and Dina, who apparently has a theatrical background not elucidated in the film. However, he had difficulty squaring Dina\u2019s collaborative awareness with the fact that her cognitive abilities are such that, as noted in the film, she\u2019s eligible for disability benefits. He also equivocated when asked what Dina\u2019s parents thought about the film.\nWhen pressed further, the filmmaker admitted that many scenes were prearranged by the directors and Dina for narrative impact. While he said the dialogue in every scene was spontaneous and genuine, it\u2019s worth considering how staged settings might affect the interaction between people who are aware of the scene\u2019s narrative purpose. It also skews close to the sort of docu-fiction that spawns pitched debates in the doc community.\nThe filmmakers sifted through many hours of footage to arrive at the story in Dina. One wonders if there\u2019s a better film still out there, one that eschews the eccentricities and instead emphasizes Dina\u2019s struggle and triumph over the adversities of her condition and her traumatic history with romantic relationships. The picture we're given feels incomplete and exploitative.\nFilm Full Frame Dina review Issue: 2017-04-05 Blogs Arts",

        "raw_content": "Approximately 25% of infertile women have problems with ovulation \u2013 the process when a mature egg is released from the ovary. The inability to produce and/or release eggs is called anovulation.\nOvulation induction involves the use of medication to stimulate development of one or more mature follicles in the ovaries of women who have anovulation and infertility.\nWhich medicines are used for ovulation induction?\nClomiphene citrate - the most commonly prescribed ovulation drug. Clomiphene works by causing the pituitary gland to secrete more FSH. The higher level of FSH stimulates the development of ovarian follicles. The standard dosage is 50-100 mg per day for 5 days, starting from the second day of the cycle.\nAromatase Inhibitor (Letrozole) \u2013 is used as a second line therapy, when Clomiphen citrate does not work. Enzyme aromatase is inhibited by the letrozole medication, which leads to suppression of oestrogen. This results in the brain and pituitary gland start to increase the production of FSH (follicle stimulating hormone). And the higher level of FSH stimulates the development of ovarian follicles. The tablets are taken at the beginning of the cycle starting Day 2, for a period of 5 days.\nGonadotrophins ( FSH containing medications) \u2013 this is an injectable medicine of FSH, which stimulates the development of ovarian follicles. The dosage is prescribed strictly by the doctor. The injections start early from the second day of the cycle and continue for approximately 10-12 days.\nPatients undergoing ovulation induction must be closely monitored by blood tests and ultrasound scanning. Ultrasound monitoring allows to determine appropriate date to have sexual intercourse to maximise chances for fertilization. When the follicle is above 18 mm HCG injection can be prescribed, that helps with the final maturation of the eggs and triggers the ovaries to release the mature eggs (ovulation). It also stimulates the corpus luteum to secrete progesterone to prepare the lining of the uterus for implantation of the fertilized egg. Ovulation (follicle rupture) usually occurs about 36 hours after the hCG is given. Treatment usually continues for 6 cycles.",

This is a tricky question to answer as many start-ups don\u2019t have a lot of money BUT, the risk of filing the patent application when the invention might not be patentable could be costly too. Therefore, I usually recommend conducting the prior art search, but the timing of doing so might be important.\nMany new inventors are surprised that they are not the only ones working on the same or a similar invention. The internet research they do, although limited, may convince them that they are the only ones working to solve this problem. A thorough prior art search is the only way to know for sure.\nThink about the risks of not doing the prior art search prior to filing the application.\n1- The possibility of getting hit with an infringement lawsuit might be the mostly costly risk. These suits can be extremely expensive, even if you don\u2019t get hit with a large damage award. There is a risk that you will not be able to afford to defend such a suit and that all of your hard work in developing the invention, getting it through the prototype stage, and getting it to market would be wasted. There is usually a significant monetary and time investment involved with these steps. There is also a risk that a court could issue an injunction that would prohibit you from making, using, selling, or offering the invention for sale.\n2- The prior art search can help in preparation of the patent application and potentially keep down costs during the prosecution stage. By knowing the closest prior art, the patent application and the claims may be prepared more strategically to take advantage of areas of patentability. Claims may be prepared that get close to the prior art without encroaching on it. It may be possible to develop arguments and strategies for convincing the patent examiner that the invention is non-obvious based on the prior art you uncovered. If you don\u2019t do the prior art search prior to filing you won\u2019t have this information under your belt when the examiner brings it up. Besides, if you find a patent that prevents you from obtaining yours, you can always consider licensing the technology you need to still market your invention. Better to find out now rather than later.\nMany times inventors complain that anything you uncover that is material to the invention must be disclosed to the Patent Office. While this seems like a disadvantage, the patent examiner will find this anyway. The patent examiners are very good at finding relevant, as well as irrelevant prior art. A route I typically recommend is to file a provisional patent application, which costs much less than a full utility application, to claim your priority date. You then have time to do the prior art search and ensure that you want to move forward. This also gives you the opportunity to raise more capital to pay for the regular application and the opportunity to draft the application to \u201cwork around\u201d any pesky prior art.\nIf you have questions, please feel free to contact me. As a licensed patent attorney, I will see how I can help.\nPosted on October 20, 2013 by ipconcerns Tagged patenttrademarkUSPTO\tCommentsNo Comments on PTO Numbers\nFor those of you who like to keep up with what the numbers at the Patent and Trademark Office look like, here\u2019s a good summary for you.\nhttp://inventivestep.net/2013/10/15/pto-numbers-end-of-fy2013/\nPosted on October 20, 2013 by ipconcerns Tagged copyrightinfringementintellectual propertylegal rightstattoo\tComments1 Comment on Copyright Confusion\nCopyright Confusion\nI recently read an article in my local newspaper about copyright on tattoos. Earlier that week I received a question in a class that I teach about copyright and how it relates to teaching. Maybe it is time for a review of copyright law and how it affects our everyday lives.\nThe truth of the matter is that copyright law is the most straightforward of all the Intellectual Property laws. It protects any original expression that exists in a tangible form. What it does not protect is general ideas or procedures. While it is not required to have a copyright registration with the U.S. Copyright Office, taking this additional step beyond creation, where copyright arises, ensures that these legal rights can be enforced should someone infringe upon your work.\nThe basic thought behind copyright is that you always need permission to use another person\u2019s work unless an exception applies. The most common exception is what is termed fair use. The determination of whether a use of a copyrighted work is within fair use depends upon making a reasoned and balanced application of the four fair use factors set forth in Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act. Those factors are\nWhile fair use is intended to apply to teaching, research, and other such activities, an educational purpose alone does not make a use fair. Based on the fair use provision, using another\u2019s work in teaching is not an infringement of copyright. While that is true, it is always a good idea to acknowledge the person who created the work.\nLet\u2019s move on to the tattoo situation. The article discussed the very distinctive tattoo that Mike Tyson has on his face. Warner Bros. recreated a very s\nimilar tattoo for Ed Helms\u2019 character in The Hangover Part II. The tattoo artist that created Mike Tyson\u2019s tattoo sued Warner Bros. This was not the first time a case like this has come about. Last year a tattoo artist sued video game maker Electronic Arts and former Miami Dolphin running back Rickey Williams over a tattoo. This case was settled before going to court but has been controversial in the football world due to the large number of NFL players who sport distinctive tattoos. The case over The Hangover tattoo also settled out of court. Since these cases have settled, we have no court decisions on this issue yet.\nOne question that arises, among others, is whether one person can own an integral part of another person\u2019s body. Another question is whether the human body constitutes a tangible medium, something that is required for even common law copyright to arise. Since a tangible medium is usually taken to mean that it just has to be written down in some way and to persist for more than a transitory duration, even the human body would meet the standard. But what rights attach to this form of copyright remains unclear. As more and more people in our society get tattoos, this will be an interesting area to in the future. Which way will the courts go with this one?\nPosted on October 8, 2013 by ipconcerns Tagged copyrightinfringementintellectual propertytrademark\tComments1 Comment on Are Video Games That Use Athletes Names Violating Trademark or Copyright Laws?\nAre Video Games That Use Athletes Names Violating Trademark or Copyright Laws?\nNot too long ago I overheard two men discussing football video games. They were using the names of actual NFL football players and that made me wonder what the law is on using things that were subject to trademarked or copyright infringement.\nTrademark law protects any word, device, symbol or the like that functions to identify source or sponsorship or affiliation of a good or service. That can be a name, such as Madden for video games. It can be the design of a logo, such as an eagle\u2019s head on a football helmet, or the colors on a uniform. The owner of the trademark is the entity that controls the nature and extent of the use of the mark. Copyright law protects works of expression. This can include code for a game, the art or other representations of objects seen in screen shots, and the artistic renderings of various characters depicted on emblems. The right of publicity, a creation of state law, precludes the unauthorized use of a celebrity\u2019s name or likeness or other identifying indicia for commercial purposes.\nSo what does all of this mean? Each of these rights is subject to a fair-use defense that essentially exempts from liability certain uses of a celebrity\u2019s name or likeness or identifying characteristics, whether as a trademark or in a manner analogous to trademark use for purposes of identification that are fair and not misleading, such as in a biographical piece or as a title of unrelated work.\nThere are aspects of video games that make the traditional fair-use defense more difficult, but not entirely untenable. This is so even if the game, as it is played, presents no actual game but the figures represent actual, identified players. There have been numerous cases covering these areas, but there is no clear direction that these cases lead us to. So for now, I leave it for you to ponder whether these games pose a violation of copyright or trademark law or if the right to use the likeness should depend fair-use as long as it is not misleading. However, the courts come down on these cases, clearly we will hear more about this as the number of cases filed on these topics increases every year.",

I\u2019ve participated in the \u201cphysics olympics\u201d. I\u2019ve graduated from high school. I\u2019ve graduated from university after studying physics for 6 years. I\u2019ve worked on multiple archaeological web databases on the side. And yet, I was still going to school, and I still had to write one exam after another, proving that I was worthy to continue. After my qualifying exam, I just got sick of it. Sick of having to prove to other people whether I\u2019m worthy or not. I know what I can do, and that\u2019s enough.\nI started thinking about why I was going to grad school. Was it to get a better job? I was pursuing a PhD in computer graphics. With that degree, I would have two main options: attempt a career in academia, or look for a job in the entertainment industry. A career in academia would just require even more proving my worthiness. As a postdoc I wouldn\u2019t take literal exams, but I would submit lots of papers, hoping that they would be accepted, or apply for grants, or interview for better positions. I\u2019d constantly be evaluated. That\u2019s not what I was looking for. So I\u2019d have to look for a job in the entertainment industry. But it turns out that this is a hard business. It\u2019s extremely competitive, and people work extreme hours. There\u2019s constant pressure to finish a project on a looming deadline, only to start with the next stressful project.\nIf I\u2019m not going to grad school because of job opportunities, what other reasons are there? Pursuing my interests? As a PhD student you get to choose some interesting problem and work on that, right? That\u2019s what I naively imagined before I started at the institute. Some day at lunch I told my supervisor about this idea I had. We could take his fluid simulation method from computer graphics and apply it to a problem related to molten polymers. There was this experiment by a group of applied physicists that would fit nicely. He asked me how many people would be interested in the problem. Maybe a handful, I said. And then I realized that there was no way I could work on that problem. Success in academia is measured in the number of citations your paper receives. What point is there in writing a paper that is only interesting to such a small audience? To be successful you need to target a large audience, and not just pursue whatever obscure problem takes your fancy.\nThere seemed to be only one reason to continue: If I\u2019d finish grad school, I could introduce myself as \u201cDr. Egger\u201d. I\u2019d have a really prestigious degree! But is that really worth four years of my life? I myself tend to not think very highly of people who care only about degrees. Most people I care about don\u2019t care about degrees. It seems that going to grad school just for the sake of having a degree is not a very good reason for me.\nWhy was I continuing with this? I had applied to the institute because I didn\u2019t want to stay at my previous university, and I saw a poster advertising a really nice graduate program. Applying seemed to be the natural thing to do. Was I just working here because I was accepted when I applied?\nSo I left academia. I decided it\u2019s time to stop educating myself, and put all that education to some use.",

        "raw_content": "Most if not of us have heard the term \u201cGood Christian\u201d, maybe you have asked the question or have been asked it. No doubt most Christian mothers and fathers are praying for a \u201cGood\u201d Christian spouse for their children. But what does the bible say?\nI find it interesting that the term \u201cChristian\u201d is used but three times in the word of God, the first time is at Antioch in Acts 11:26, \u201cAnd when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch\u201d. The second time is when Paul is testifying before King Agrippa and the King replies in Acts 26:28, \u201cThen Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.\u201d The last time is found in 1Peter 4:16, \u201cYet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.\u201d Suffer? I imagine that puts some zip into your desire to become a Christian, doesn\u2019t it? The word Christian means \u201cfollower of Christ\u201d, which indeed is what we as Christians should be.\nSo do we have an example of what is a good Christian in these versus? So what are the qualities of a \u201cgood\u201d Christian then? I suppose going to church every week would make you a good Christian? so if you go on only special occasions are you an average or bad Christian? one who reads his bible and prays everyday is a good Christian then, right? Sings the loudest? gives faithfully? I know, the ones who sit in the front of the church are! You see whenever you try to label someone as a good, average, or as a bad Christian you have a problem, because the bible does put those kind of labels on people.\nIt\u2019s really about are you saved or unsaved, we really don\u2019t have a right to be called Christians if we have not fulfilled the call to become \u201cBorn Again\u201d as described in John 3:3 and 3:5 can we? Which on the day of Pentecost the apostle Peter made it clear on what we are supposed to do, Acts 2:38, \u201cThen Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.\u201d Being a Christian is really about the example Jesus gave in being servants. Mark 10:45, \u201cFor even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.\u201d Luke 22:24-26, \u201cAnd there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.\u201d\n\u201cChristians\u201d, followers of Christ, Matthew 4:19, \u201cAnd he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.\u201d and Matthew 16:24,\u201dThen said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.\u201d We are neither \u201cGood\u201d or \u201cAverage\u201d or even \u201cBad\u201d Christians, we are all sinners that have been pardoned by the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Private mortgage lenders in Caledon will typically provide short-term mortgage financing (1 to 2 years) to a person who has lots of equity in his/her home or commercial property. In most cases, Private mortgage lenders in Caledon will borrow up to 75% value of the property being used as collateral(mortgage will normally not exceed 75% value of the property). Private mortgage lenders prefer to finance properties which are located within city limits however they will borrow in small towns or rural areas as well. The lender may only borrow up to 50 to 60% value of the property when financing outside of the city especially in rural areas.\nThe private lender puts more emphasis on the properties\u2019 equity instead of looking at a person\u2019s credit history etc. This is why Private mortgage financing is also known as equity lending. Getting Private mortgage financing can be very helpful and crucial in some situations. Private mortgage financing in Caledon is often used to pay off judgements against property, stop foreclosures, pay off major collections or court settlements, develop commercial projects, etc.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Clock Funeral Home / Plan in Advance for Euthanasia\nPlan in Advance for Euthanasia\nLet\u2019s face it, no one wants to make the decision to euthanize their pet, however, if you can make a plan for it ahead of time, the overall experience will be a more positive one for both you and your pet.\nAs responsible pet parents we make sure our animals have all of their vaccines, receive regular exercise and even make sure that their dietary needs are cared for. We do this so they can enjoy a long and healthy life as a part of our family. Financially, this easily adds up to hundreds of dollars a year, and over time several thousands of dollars. If this is what we do to keep pets healthy, what do we do to ensure a plan is in place for when they reach the end of their life?\nWhile it may be something you may not want to think about, if you address this issue when your pet is young and healthy, you will have made your decisions with a clear mindset and not under duress. In the human world, when it comes to our end of life wishes this is done on a regular basis \u2013 in fact, legally we will select an individual to act on our behalf if we are unable to speak for yourself via a medical and financial power of attorney. Pets are considered to be property, therefore the only voice they have is their pet parent\u2019s when it comes to their end of life care and decision making. Over the past few years, more people have reached out and asked how to develop a pet end of life care plan.\nBelow is a 12-point pet end of life care plan of things to take into consideration:\nAsk your veterinarian what their criteria is for euthanasia? Many vets have their own internal compass and set of standards before euthanizing.\nAsk your veterinarian what their process is for euthanasia? Many vets will heavily sedate your pet prior to euthanizing them, therefore ensuring the pet quietly slips away and no pain is involved.\nAsk your veterinarian if they will come to your home to euthanize. Many vets will not. (This may even be the first question you ask when interviewing vets for as a care provider for your pet.) When the vet comes to your home, there is less stress for the pet and everyone else involved.\nIf you like your veterinarian and they will not come to your home, will they refer you to one that will? If so, you will want to call that vet and ask the same questions.\nYou may want to seek out a veterinarian whose area of expertise in in home palliative care and pet hospice. This is a new and upcoming specialty.\nDecide who will be present during the euthanasia process.\nDecide what you would like to do with your pet\u2019s remains, bury or cremate.\nIf you elect to bury \u2013 make arrangements to purchase a pet casket or some form of a container ahead of time. Make sure it is the right size for your pet and that it is seals. You will also want to check to see if there are rules in your community about urban or rural pet burials. Note \u2013 in some communities there are pet cemeteries.\nIf you elect to cremate your pet, arrangements will need to be made with the crematory. Please do your due diligence to ensure that the crematory fully discloses what type of a cremation your pet will receive and what will be returned to you. Example: Your pet will be privately cremated, you will receive a fur clipping and a paw print. Your pet will be returned in an urn.\nThe day before the euthanasia, consider letting your pet do and or eat all their favorite things. Let friends and family members come say a final farewell.\nPlease DO NOT take off your pet\u2019s collar prior to euthanasia. This will only stress your pet out more. By taking their collar off, it will send a message of abandonment. Please take it off afterwards.\nIf there are other pets in the home, if you do not want them present during the procedure, please let them smell and explore the pet after euthanasia has taken place. They need to know what has happened otherwise they will be looking for their friend. If the procedure did not take place in the home, either bring your pet home first before their final care or take a blanket and rub it all over the pet and then place it at home for the other pets to smell. They will recognize the scent and know what has taken place.\nIn closing, you may want to consider making a memory table or area to honor your pet. It can be something as simple as placing their photo in a frame and putting their collar next to or on the corner of the frame. If you have children, you may want to ask for their involvement by having them place a favorite toy, bone or even draw a picture and set it next to the photo. Last but certainly not least, allow yourself to feel. Whatever those feelings are, they are real \u2013 let them out. It\u2019s not about what other people think \u2013 this pet provided numerous tail wags and unconditional love. To you, it was a family member, for others it may simply be just a pet.\nFiled Under: Clock Funeral Home, Clock Timeless Pets, Death and Dying, Pet Death, Pet Greif, Pet Topics, Tough Talks Tagged With: euthanasia, pet cemetery, pet cremation, pet euthanasia\nI haven\u2019t thought much about it but when the time comes, we\u2019ll have one of the vets come out to our house.\nThis is a great article. Nobody wants to think about euthanasia, but it is an important thing for pet owners to consider. You have great questions to ask the vet about the process. I had asked my vet similar questions, but when the time came, and Jewel told me it was her time to go, our vet was on vacation!! I ended up with a friend\u2019s practice, which turned out to be a really good thing in the end. I\u2019ll share this with my readers. Thank you for the great advice.\nWe\u2019ve had to put down a couple of our pets when we had other pets in the home. The procedure was done at the vets office. The idea of bringing your pet home so the others can smell it/spend time with it isn\u2019t something I could have ever done. It was hard enough to leave him behind let alone bringing him home, only to return to the vet with his body. I\u2019m not sure my vet would of ever agreed to this either. It\u2019s an interesting topic for discussion.\nI agree this is so important. We are fortunate to have a wonderful hospice vet who will come to our house when the time comes.\nSaying goodbye to our pets is one of the hardest things we will ever do as human beings. It is an incredible blessing that we are able to end suffering in our pets through euthanasia but it is also a tremendously emotional and challenging decision. I appreciate you writing about this sensitive topic and I think that considering these things before the time comes is incredibly helpful.\nExcellent points. We had to send off our lab Cookie at age 14 as she had cancer and was in so much pain. We waited until everyone had said goodbyes and took her to her favourite spots (carried as she could not longer walk) and gave her her favourite things like bar-b-q chicken (she devoured a whole one outside the vet). Then I cuddled her in my lap on blankets on the floor as she had a drip and fell asleep- so happy and peaceful. My husband and kids could not watch, but I wanted her to feel safe and loved. Our other rescue dog Isabelle was with us and seemed to understand what happened. 3 years later, Isabelle aged almost 17 started having seizures and pain, I took her in almost in a coma. The vet was not hopeful she would wake up but then she popped her head up. She seemed to be begging me to go home to say goodbye to the kids. We all spent hours petting her then she passed in my arms at 3.00am very quickly and quietly. We had her cremated.\nI agree with these points but the post reminded me of my last minutes with my Golden Retriever Tucker. I had tears running down my face through most of this.\nI haven\u2019t thought about what I would do with the other pet now that I have two. I had to help my previous Persian go to the bridge 5 years ago and it was very tough, but I knew I did what was best for her.\nIt is always great to plan in advance. This is helpful\nI\u2019ve just written a story on end of life care and hospice and euthanasia so this topic is close to my heart. Having a vet come out is how I would move forward \u2013 but it\u2019s better to plan.\nI remember facing this problem when Baby RIP had IMHA, it attacked her and within 48 hours I had to face this, it was a hard decision but I knew it was the right one.(we had to do it at the surgery as she has spent the night there while they worked on her trying to save her) I was very fortunate to have a wonderful vet and staff who were with me throughout the process in all ways, and friends in the park who immediately did a collection to help me with all costs. They also organized a memorial for her and we buried her ashes under one of the trees in the park. Thank you for this blog as we all avoid discussing it\nWow, it is so difficult to even imagine that time. These are great tips to review while emotionally intact (although the topic itself is upsetting \u2013 of course). Best to plan ahead. Great post.\nThis is so sad to think about, but it is so much easier to make the decisions when time is on your side. I appreciate the advice about letting the other pets sniff the pet or the blanket.\nGreat post with many thing to think of.\nagirlandherhusky says\nI know from experience that this is a very tough decision. I had a cat for 16 years who had to be euthanized due to kidney failure. The vet believed that even if they were able to treat and save him, he would never be the same cat again and his quality of life would be very low. They believed he would always be in pain. It was a very very difficult decision.\nThis is a very difficult subject to think about, but you\u2019re right that it is a good idea to have these plans set in advance. Making decisions when you are emotional can turn out very badly. Having the finances in order to cover the final expenses can be a big burden off of your chest when those days finally come.\nGine Oquendo says\nI agree that we need it to plan in advance because it is the tough decision you need to make. Putting down your pet is a very serious matter. In my case, I find hard to decide to do the pet euthanasia because as much as possible I don\u2019t want to end the life of my Terry our pet dog just like that. But seeing her living in pain, much better than I will end her sufferings. Please refer to this link: https://pawsatpeacepethospice.com/",

The jist of what I have realised this year is that at some point, everybody goes through a loss, as it\u2019s a part of life. It still sucks though. I am still strong and we will all still go through life but it\u2019s okay to have our space too. At the end of the day we are all human right now. It\u2019s also oddly hitting me as I wonder where my father is right now. He always answers my questions but I\u2019ve been asking him a lot lately, dad, WHERE ARE YOU??? And I\u2019m not getting an answer. So are you listening or \u2026.where are you?\nMy long winded post from last year is linked below (with my original post linked inside that link \u2013 meaning when it first happened, and I actually posted that on his birthday which is in 5 days, I don\u2019t know where he\u2019s celebrating or with who. Maybe our other family members who have left this earth? I don\u2019t know. I wish he would tell me soon.) That link is posted first. Fyi they are kind of emo so if you can\u2019t handle that do not click the links.\nMy only advice right now is to never be too busy for the people in your life. Always realise that tomorrow may not happen so do what you have to do now. Don\u2019t put things off. I think I say that enough.\nAnyways, can\u2019t believe it\u2019s been two years. I hope dad is happy and comfortable wherever he is. And btw I am strong and this is not meant for any \u201cpity\u201d as I mentioned before everyone will have to go through a loss in life, and you will deal with it however suits you. We can all have our moments but we must all stay strong and healthy. I just want to say my piece as my dad has always stood by me and done soo much for me. And to be honest, that was the absolute hardest, worst, scariest event of my life. Dad\u2019s funeral/cremation.

These installments, mailed daily, became the first chapters for one of the best known of all children\u2019s books, The Wind in the Willows (1908).\nKenneth Grahame was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on March 8, 1859. He was the third of four children born to James Cunningham Grahame, a lawyer, and Bessie Ingles Grahame. When Kenneth was 5 years old, his mother died, shortly after giving birth to his brother Roland. Kenneth\u2019s father arranged to have the children live with relatives in Berkshire, England. In 1866 he sent for them to live with him in Edinburgh, but the next year he was forced to send them back to England.\nIn 1868 young Grahame entered St. Edward\u2019s School at Oxford, England. He did well in both studies and sports, graduating in 1875. He wanted to go on to college but did not have enough money. In 1879 he became a clerk in the Bank of England. There he advanced steadily to become an officer of the bank.\nDuring his spare time Grahame wrote children\u2019s stories. These were published in book form as The Golden Age (1895) and Dream Days (1898). \u201cThe Reluctant Dragon,\u201d one of the stories in Dream Days, was made into a Walt Disney feature film.\nIn 1899 Grahame married Elspeth Thomson, a Scottish woman. Alastair was their only child. He was born the year after their marriage and died at age 20 in an accident.The Wind in the Willows was published in1908, around the same time that Grahame retired from the bank. He died at Pangbourne, Berkshire, on July 6, 1932.",

It is modelled like a GP\u2019s Practice, where all of the counsellors & psychotherapists are individual practitioners, and each has particular ways of working and special interests. For therapists\u2019 profiles, please see Senior Therapists.\nIf you wish to apply for reduced cost therapy with us, please see Reduced Cost Therapy\nIn general, we offer psychodynamic psychotherapy/counselling. The term \u201cpsychodynamic psychotherapy/counselling\u201d is used here as an umbrella term for an exploring type of psychotherapy/counselling. For more information, please see psychodynamic psychotherapy vs CBT.\nThe first step is to book an initial consultation. The initial consultation (an assessment for psychotherapy or counselling) is an opportunity to discuss with the therapist whether a psychotherapeutic intervention (a psychotherapy treatment or series of counselling meetings) might be appropriate for your difficulty, and to agree with the therapist about the arrangements for further counselling meetings here. The Initial Consultation takes about 50 minutes. For more information, please see First Meetings.\nIf you wish to pursue therapy with us, but were not able to come to mutually agreeable arrangements for subsequent meetings (i.e. the day or/and time of your ongoing appointments) with the therapist you had the initial consultation with, the practice manager, Yoko Kirkpatrick, will get in touch with you to discuss possibilities for working with another therapist at Koan.",

This is the fourth time my wife and I are enjoying this event. As in the past, Sheryl, and I are taking this cruise with my college roommate, Tim, and his wife, Marie.\nThe Rock Boat is hosted by a band called Sister Hazel that has five members. Since the passengers are a key ingredient in the overall experience, the name of the organization that puts on the cruise is called The Sixth Man. A number of artists besides Sister Hazel are featured on the cruises. I am looking forward to seeing Scars on 45, Barenaked Ladies, and Broken Anchor. In general, all of these bands' songs are mid-tempo rockers with jangly guitars \u2014 not quite folk, not quite country, more of something like non-heavy-metal classic rock. The four-day trek features bands playing throughout the day and night as the boat sails. There's one day on an amusement park island where bands play while we relax in the water and sand with a huge water slide.\nThis year's lineup includes:\nBrian Fechino & Friends\nHey Monea!\nGareth Asher & The Earthlings",

        "raw_content": "UPDATE: Whither the Scott House\nBWL substation plan tests Lansing\u2019s preservation ethic\nA BWL image of the former substation that provided electricity to the Verlinden auto plant. This is what the 50-foot-high substation proposed for the Scott property would look like behind 20-foot-high decorative walls, BWL officials said Tuesday night.\n(UPDATE: This story has been edited to include images of the Lansing Board of Water & Light proposed Central Substation as well as a BWL press release that includes a link to a document that includes more images.)\nDick Peffley, the new general manager of the Lansing Board of Water & Light, was losing sleep.\nHe was worrying about what would happen to downtown\u2019s power if the aging Eckert plant ever failed.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a general manager\u2019s nightmare,\u201d said BWL\u2019s spokesman, Steve Serkaian.\nThe solution is the proposed Central Substation that the BWL wants to build near Reo Town.\nBut now Peffley has a new worry: Preservationists are outraged that the Central Substation would replace the Tudor-style Scott House and its sunken gardens.\nSerkaian was among BWL officials who met with 21 members of the public Tuesday night to explain the project to them.\nThe 98-year-old Scott House is a largely mothballed city asset of the city, sitting above the Grand River just north of Reo Town. Nestled beside the aluminum-paneled 4,600-square-foot house is a sunken garden, installed by Richard Scott in 1930. The 5.5- acre property was declared dedicated parkland in 2003 by the Lansing City Council.\nThe BWL wants to replace it with the $26 million power substation. It says it would either move or raze the house and recreate the sunken garden behind the formal Cooley Gardens area next door.\nThe substation\u2019s 50-foot-high steel skeletal towers and small building would be partly hidden behind 20-foot-high walls, decorated with gears and murals of famous Lansing residents such as Malcolm X. The plan would create a walkway overlooking the river. The public utility wants to begin con struction right after Labor Day. Completion will take at least two years.\nThe location is necessary because it would serve downtown and use existing circuits from the soon-to-be decommissioned Eckert Power Plant.\nDevelopment of the old Deluxe Inn site across the street as well as the BWL project \u201cwill create a compelling new gateway to REO Town,\u201d said Randy Hannan, chief of staff to Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero.\nBut preservationists oppose the project.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a line in the sand,\u201d said Dale Schrader of Preservation Lansing. He\u2019s a landlord in the city who has purchased and restored several historic properties on the edge of Old Town and in the adjacent Walnut neighborhood. \u201cWe\u2019re done with the teardowns in the name of urban renewal,\u201d said Schrader, a leading opponent of Niowave\u2019s infamous pole barn.\nActivists and some on the Council, citing the City Charter, say the property transfer should be subject to a referendum because it\u2019s parkland.\nHannan said by email, though, that \u201cit is premature to conclude that a ballot question will be required because it is unlikely that the property will be sold to the BWL.\u201d\n\u201cBWL is an agency of the City of Lansing, so it is not a foregone conclusion that the city needs to sell land to one of its own agencies in order for them to use it for this purpose.\u201d\nEmily Horvath, a professor at the Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, said her review of the City Charter supports Hannan\u2019s contention.\n\u201cSection 8-403.6 of the City Charter states that any sale of a park requires approval by the voters,\u201d Horvath said. \u201cIt appears that in this case, there will not be a sale, but a reclassification of the property.\u201d\nSchrader said a citizen initiative to stop the plan is on the table as a possible option.\nHe and other members of his group will meet Friday with BWL officials, Serkaian said.\nSchrader and Joe Vitale, another developer and head of the preservation group, said this proposal is just another example of the lack of a strong preservation ethic in Lansing. They point to the the Lansing School District\u2019s decision to sell Eastern High School to Sparrow Health Systems with no language to protect the historic building.\nBoth men, and others in the group challenge claims that restoration of the Tudor home, built in 1918, would cost $1.5 million to $2 million.\n\u201cThat\u2019s $250 a square foot for renovations,\u201d Vitale said. \u201cIt\u2019s easy to throw the numbers out to make it sound impossible. But it would cost maybe 10 or 20 percent of that amount \u2014 maybe.\u201d\nBoth men have restored historic buildings themselves and said they might have an interest in purchasing and renovating the house.\nThe Preservation Lansing leaders\u2019 cost assessments to renovate the property are based only on exterior inspections of the property. City officials claimed in 2007, in interviews with City Pulse, that the home required significant work on plumbing and electrical systems. The city shuttered the facility as a cost-saving measure in 2008. Since then it has served as a storage facility.\nClinton in Lansing Next\nKellogg Center kitchens closes Previous",

        "raw_content": "Power! In the mechanical realm, nothing works without it, One afternoon in mid-August 2003, the lights went out in New York City! In fact, there were 50 million people in the Northeast affected by the blackout. Our family was living in New York City at the time, as we were doing missions work with Jews for Jesus. Can you say interruption! It lasted about 24 hours and when the power went back on the city exhaled with a sigh of relief!\nIn the spiritual realm, we need power to effectively witness for Jesus.\nWe may be tempted to believe the power to witness comes from the \u2018how to.\u2019 And while the \u2018how to\u2019 is important, without the power source, we\u2019ll be like a machine that happens to be unplugged! Certainly the machine called New York City is impotent when unplugged. But when plugged in, New York City is remarkable. In our witness, unless we\u2019re plugged into the power source, we\u2019ll be ineffective. But when plugged into to that power source, we can \u2018do all things through Christ who strengthens us\u2019 (Philippians 4:13), including the work of evangelism.\nFor the Christian, our power source is none other than the Holy Spirit. Jesus said to His disciples just before ascending into heaven:\n\u201cBut you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.\u201d (Acts 1:8)\nEvangelism that is fruitful and glorifies God is done in and through the power of God. For Jesus says, \u201cwithout Me you can do nothing\u201d (John 15:5). So our personal witness needs to be both Spirit-led and Spirit-empowered.\nAs believers, God the Holy Spirit, the second person of the trinity, indwells each of us. And it is He who empowers our witness.\nThe Holy Spirit helps us know what to say. In Luke 12:12 Jesus was teaching the disciples to not fret about what they might say when undergoing persecution, telling them \u201cthe Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.\u201d While in our witnessing efforts we do want to strive to \u2018always be ready\u2019 to share when God provides opportunities, we need to also trust in the power of the Spirit to know when and what to share.\nThe Holy Spirit gives us boldness. After Peter and John had healed a lame man in Acts 3, they were arrested by the Jewish religious leadership (the Sanhedrin) and asked by what power or name they had done it. Peter, \u2018being filled with the Holy Spirit,\u2019 then witnessed to them, saying in Acts 4:12, \u201cSalvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.\u201d\nUpon their release they went and prayed with other believers, asking God to give them boldness to speak His word. \u201cAnd when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness\u201d (Acts 4:31).\nThe same fearful and cowardly Peter who denied the Lord three times on the night of Jesus\u2019 arrest is now a powerful, bold witness for the Lord.\nAnd therein lies the key for us as we strive to be powerful witnesses \u2013 Spend time with the Lord. Spend time in His Word, spend time in prayer. Remember, a powerful witness is a \u2018plugged-in\u2019 witness.\nI can tell you that I desperately need the Holy Spirit in my personal witness to others. I need Him to fill me, to empower me, to help me know what to say, and to give me courage. How about you?\nAsk Him move mightily in and through all you do in your witness. And ask the Lord to move mightily in the heart of the one to whom you\u2019re witnessing. For it is the Lord who is your power to witness.\nLessons from Acts: The Power to Witness | Larry Stamm Ministries",

This is a primary principle of prayer in evangelism and one we need to take to heart.\nFor we are in a spiritual war, where the souls of men and women hang in the balance. As followers of Jesus we should understand prayer is not only essential in the evangelistic endeavor, it should be the place we begin.\nWhen we go to God first we are acknowledging our dependence on Him, the vanity of witnessing to people in our own strength, and the necessity of God to move and work in the hearts of those we desire to reach.

        "raw_content": "Carole Leighton was afraid to appear foolish, so she didn\u2019t ask her doctor to explain what he meant when he told her she had an esophageal malignancy.\n\u201cI figured if I had cancer, he would have said that word,\u201d she recalls three years later. \u201cI went home and looked up esophageal malignancy on the Internet and nearly fainted. And then, I didn\u2019t know who I was more angry with \u2013 my doctor, for not speaking plainly, or myself, for not demanding a definition, for not being my own health care advocate.\u201d\nLeighton, who is cancer free these days, finds herself saying the words, \u201chealth care advocate,\u201d a lot lately. \u201cI tell everyone I know, \u2018Look out for yourself, don\u2019t do what I did. Ask questions of your doctor; make demands; just plain communicate!\u2019\u201d\nBecoming one\u2019s own health care advocate is the key to good health, according to Lesley Cohen, a Seattle-based writer and author of the forthcoming e-book, Calling Dr. Google: How to Get the Most Out of a Visit to Your Physician. If you are not aggressive in getting answers to your health care questions, Cohen insists, you are less likely to receive adequate attention, and more likely to remain ill.\n\u201cIt\u2019s all about fostering a great doctor-patient relationship,\u201d she says. \u201cThe best doctor-patient relationship is one that\u2019s a true partnership. The doctor\u2019s job is to bring his medical expertise, and the patient must bring a very refined story about what his symptoms are, and how he\u2019s experiencing them in his day-to-day life.\u201d This partnership, Cohen says, will help the physician, not only to diagnose an existing malady, but will allow him to decide what treatments and therapies will work best for the patient.\n\u201cI was a better patient after I learned to tell my doctor about all the details that I thought didn\u2019t matter,\u201d Cohen admits about her own recent bout with breast cancer.\n\u201cWhen I was told that I needed chemotherapy, I didn\u2019t mention that I picked up my children from school every day, because I didn\u2019t think that it was relevant. So, I requested morning sessions for chemo, because I figured I\u2019d go after I dropped the kids off from school. The oncologist ended up scheduling me for afternoon therapy, because he knew I\u2019d be worn out afterward and not be able to go get my kids.\u201d\nAsking questions of your physician, even during a routine checkup, is paramount. \u201cOne of my doctors spoke to me as if I were a pre-med student,\u201d Cohen recalls. \u201cI was afraid of appearing dumb, so I would just let him talk and then try to write down what he said and go home and look it up on Google later.\u201d\nLater, she learned to stop doctors who spoke over her head and ask, \u201cWhat does that mean?\u201d Another key question, she says, was \u201cWhat are my other options?\u201d when told of a particular treatment. Over-scheduled physicians often try to convey a lot of complicated, sometimes frightening, information to a patient in a short amount of time. These communication lapses can mean that a patient won\u2019t fully grasp the significance of a diagnosis, which can have dire consequences.\nIt doesn\u2019t hurt to remember that your physician is working for you, toward improving your health. Don\u2019t be afraid, Cohen says, to admit your worst fears about your symptoms and what they might mean.\n\u201cYou\u2019ll leave the doctor\u2019s office feeling much better if your doctor has explained to you why your chest pains can\u2019t possibly be lung cancer,\u201d she says. \u201cYour fear is also a symptom of what ails you, so share it with your doctor.\u201d\nPerhaps the most important step you can take is choosing a primary care physician (PCP) who isn\u2019t intimidating. It\u2019s great to show up prepared for your doctor visit with a list of questions and concerns, but, if you\u2019re not willing to stand up for yourself regarding his answers to your questions, the doctor may be gone from the room before you got what you came for. Challenging basic notions of what the doctor\u2019s and the patient\u2019s roles are can be a high hurdle for most people, but it\u2019s one that\u2019s always worth the leap.",

        "title": "Guest Author Monday \u2013 Leanne Tyler",
        "raw_content": "Please welcome with me today our Guest Author \u2014 Nancy Fraser\nWhat I Learned From Being Part of an Anthology\nWhen my novella, Erin\u2019s Gift, was chosen to be part of the anthology, A Very Scandalous Holiday, from Entangled Publishing, I was over the moon. Let\u2019s face it \u2026 there are few rewards in a writer\u2019s life greater than a sale. I shared my good news with family, friends, and \u2026 finally \u2026 my writing partner. Here we were in the middle of our seven-book series, and I\u2019d had the audacity to sell a novella of my own. It almost felt as if I was being unfaithful.\nOnce I\u2019d jumped past that hurdle, the panic of edits set in. What if the changes were extensive? What if I disagreed with the editor\u2019s request? A thousand different problems ran helter-skelter through my head \u2026 as if just writing the darned thing wasn\u2019t enough drama!\nWith the final edits done, it was time for the final galley read-through and the first time I\u2019d seen the other three author\u2019s stories in print. If I\u2019d thought edits were going to scare my down the rabbit hole, seeing three other author\u2019s work right there alongside mine was daunting! What if mine couldn\u2019t stack up against the other three? It\u2019s bad enough being judged against other books in the same genre and wondering whose book the reader will buy. Being judged side-by-side with three mega-talented authors nearly had me hyperventilating. Twice, I thought about reading the other three stories but then decided to wait until after we had the final version. I\u2019d found a couple of nits and boo-boos in mine and I wanted to give the other three ladies the benefit of fixing any they might find in theirs as well.\nSo, while I waited for the final copy to come through, I sat down at my desk and made myself a list of what I\u2019d learned from the experience. It helped me wait out that final copy.\nFirst, and foremost, rejoice in the sale! Whether it\u2019s a group effort, or a solo project, a sale is the only way to get your work in front of the reader. Share the joy of your sale \u2026 not only does it make it more real but it lifts your spirits. Writers lead a fairly solitary life so we have to raise our heads and crow as often as possible. It also helps to have a reward list \u2026 some treat you will give yourself for meeting milestones in the process. Most of mine revolve around coffee and chocolate!\nSecond, learn something from the book you\u2019re writing. I try to learn something new from everything I write. In creating Erin\u2019s Gift, I found an appreciation for the 1920\u2019s time period and am currently working on a follow up novella featuring the heroine\u2019s best friend. I also learned a lot of cool new phrases that are just the bee\u2019s knees!\nThird, take the edits with a grain of salt. Obviously, if the editor bought your book in the first place, he/she already thinks highly of it \u2026 so their suggestions are only intended to make it better. I\u2019ve been fortunate enough to work with some very talented and understanding editors and have been able to work my way through all of their suggestions without losing my already-fragile writer\u2019s mind. (NOTE: Gwen Hayes is an AWESOME editor and she did NOT pay me to say that!)\nFourth, accept that fact that there are going to be other authors sharing the book with you. If the editor has done their job, each story should bring something unique to the anthology so you don\u2019t want to compare your work to theirs. My story is set in Chicago during the Roaring 20s, another in Regency England, another in the late 1800s England, and the last is a wonderful Hanukkah story set during the Battle of the Bulge. No comparison is wanted or necessary.\nAnd, lastly, each author in the anthology will have their own way of doing promotion. What works for one, might not work for the others. The most important thing to remember is to be supportive of each other, encourage your fans, media followers, friends and family to traipse around and follow you from blog to blog, even if it\u2019s one of the other authors turn to shine!\nExcerpt from Erin\u2019s Gift:\n\u201cWell, well, well, what have we here?\u201d The desk sergeant stared down over the huge wooden barrier, his thick Irish brogue filled with amusement. \u201cMiss Harrison, Mr. Packard.\u201d Glancing in Erin\u2019s direction, he added, \u201cDon\u2019t tell me these two have roped another of their Hyde Park friends into skirting the law?\u201d He shook his head and rubbed a meaty hand across his whiskers. \u201cWhat\u2019s your name, girlie?\u201d\n\u201cErin. Erin O\u2019Mara.\u201d\n\u201cSaints be, they\u2019ve drawn a fine Irish lass such as yourself into their sordid business.\u201d The officer turned his attention to Abby.\n\u201cI suppose you\u2019ll be wanting to call that shyster brother of yours, now won\u2019t you?\u201d\nAbby nodded. \u201cYes, Officer O\u2019Malley, if you wouldn\u2019t mind.\u201d\nO\u2019Malley motioned toward the single phone on the table opposite the desk. \u201cYou can give him a call, but you\u2019re going into the tank with the rest of lawbreakers until he gets here. No more special treatment just \u2018cause your father\u2019s a councilman. Understood?\u201d\n\u201cYes, sir,\u201d Abby said. She started toward the desk and then turned back to ask, \u201cDid Mrs. O\u2019Malley have that baby yet, Sergeant?\u201d\n\u201cNot yet,\u201d the man acknowledged, shaking his head. \u201cYou\u2019d think after ten, they\u2019d just walk out on their own.\u201d\nThe \u201ctank\u201d as Officer O\u2019Malley had called it was made up of three jail cells, side by side. Women were housed in the first, the middle one sat empty, and the men were placed in the third. The young officer in charge of escorting them to their cells opened the door and motioned them forward. \u201cMiss Abby,\u201d the man said, \u201cI\u2019m surprised to see you back so soon.\u201d\nAbby laid her hand against the officer\u2019s smooth cheek. \u201cOh, Tommy, you know I couldn\u2019t possibly go more than a week or two without seeing your handsome face.\u201d\nThe cell door had barely shut behind them when two women of questionable virtue began whistling and making wild moaning noises.

Her love of writing often made her the English teacher\u2019s pet, which, of course, resulted in a whole lot of teasing. Still, it was worth it.\nIn addition to being part of this wonderful anthology, Nancy also has a co-authored historical romance, The Lawman\u2019s Agreement, coming out on November 11, as well as a contemporary novella, Having Santa\u2019s Baby, releasing in December. The fourth novella in her Golden Decade of Rock and Roll vintage historical series, April Love, will be released worldwide in February.\nWhen not writing (which is almost never), Nancy dotes on her five beautiful grandchildren and enjoys traveling and reading. She invites you to visit her website (www.nancyfraser.ca) or follow her on Twitter (@nfraserauthor). Or, more importantly, just enjoy what she writes.\nA very Scandalous Holiday Entangled Publishing Erin's Gift Nancy Fraser Scandalous\ngwen hayes (@gwenhayes) says:\nThat Gwen Hayes may not have paid you for saying that, but I bet she\u2019s thinking about paying you now. \ud83d\ude42\nLove the excerpt. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on anthologies \u2013 I hope to be included in one next year, and I\u2019ll certainly keep your recommendations in mind if my story is accepted.\nNancy Fraser says:\nDon\u2019t be silly \u2026 she did pay me \u2026 with awesome editing!",

        "raw_content": "Leora here. Shalom!\nForemost, I\u2019m a modern orthodox Jewess. This means I keep kosher, refrain from work on Shabbat (Sabbath), and keep to the laws of the Torah. I don\u2019t associate religion as a burden, contrary to what many people think. Having faith in something greater than myself elicits balance in my life and helps me recognize true joy in everything I do.\nCoursing through my veins lives this curious thrill, one that has a million stories to tell; few belonging to me. It acknowledges surroundings, those unencumbered and vast, to those miniscule and humble. It studies histories, cultures, and people, exhilarated by how much beauty is out there, making me kind of a crazed explorer .\nI should mention that all the images on my blog are ones I\u2019ve taken, unless specified otherwise. I wouldn\u2019t go so far to call myself a professional photographer, but I\u2019m an aspiring shutterbug, one who works hard to get her shots and puts effort in her edits, so if you see something you\u2019d like to use, please contact me.\nSeeing as how I don\u2019t have the luxury of unlimited time, wealth, or zero responsibilities keeping me grounded, I\u2019m unable to just scurry off to any city in the world. My privilege does coalesce with my very own luxury, though. I live in New York City and I\u2019m so fortunate and grateful to call this extraordinary place home. (On occasion, I do travel out of the confines of the East Coast to other countries, which I write about as well.) Nevertheless, most of the places I blog about are within the 5 boroughs of NYC, (Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, and The Bronx), including the few trips to upstate NY I take every year.\nAs a frizzy-haired second grader, I already knew I was going to be a writer, (or to use the clinical term: wordaholic.) I was obsessed with words; their meanings, origins, formations, and how a variety of them can say the same thing you were trying to say, but once rephrased, sound so much more beautiful. I published my first piece when I was 18 in Lilith Magazine. The day my copies came in the mail was one of the proudest days of my life. Later that summer, I got an internship at The Jewish Voice as a journalist. While freelancing, I began tutoring English at Bramson College. Though I no longer work there, being an educator to students from all over the globe, ones with the richest stories, was my happy place.\nThis blog is a fusion of both my passions: exploring and writing. I hope to share and inspire as best I can. Contact me if you\u2019re so inclined. Or find me here on Instagram, which is the only form of social media where I\u2019m most active.",

        "raw_content": "This week, I met with one of Limelight\u2019s newest artists, Brewing Company. Brewing Company is a band made up of four seniors. The members are lead singer and guitarist Lindsey Clemmer, one of Limelight\u2019s own execs and guitarist Chase Obrecht, bass player Matt Snow, and drummer Eric Reeder. These four talented musicians make up a band they describe as indie rock/dream pop. The name Brewing Company was thought of while out to eat at a restaurant with lots of signs for all sorts of brewing companies on the walls. Lindsey spit out the idea somewhat jokingly and it just stuck. They also like to think that they\u2019re \u201cbrewing up\u201d their music in a way.\nTheir debut single, which they\u2019ve been working on since the fall semester, is out now and on streaming services like Spotify and Apple music. This single is called \u201cHeart of Stone\u201d, written by Lindsey, and it\u2019s about a relationship falling apart. She says that a lot of the lyrics in the song come from familiar phrases her mom used to say to her. However, \u201cHeart of Stone\u201d is just the beginning of an upcoming EP. They\u2019ve already written one more song, which is being finished up, and are planning on writing two more to complete their first EP. Keep an eye out for it to come out by the end of this semester!\nThe members say they love working together and have a fun and lighthearted group dynamic. They especially love performing and being on stage together. In fact, Brewing Company does a lot of live performances at places like Fat Froggs, Oak House, and Irazu. They have two coming up in the next month, those being Senior Night, April 19th at Fat Froggs, and the Limelight Showcase on April 27th.\nUnfortunately, since all the members are seniors, this semester is their last chance to make music and perform together so be sure to come out and see them at one of their upcoming shows! In addition, check out Brewing Company on Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, and Apple Music to check out their single and stay informed on future events.",

It has produced more refugees than any current conflict, generating fully one quarter of all refugees worldwide. Everyone knows that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is important itself, and is also fueling tensions throughout the Middle East. Yet most people shy away from this conflict, claiming it is \u201cjust too complicated\u201d to understand. This book is written for people who want a point of entry into the conversation. It offers both a historic and analytic framework. Readers, whether acting as students, parishioners, neighbors, voters, or dinner guests will find in these pages an analysis of the most commonly heard Israeli positions, and a succinct account of the Palestinian voices we seldom hear. I argue that human rights standards have never been used as the basis on which the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should be resolved and that only these standards can produce a just and sustainable resolution. This book will be useful for classes in Middle East studies, peace and conflict studies, Middle East history, sociology of race, and political science.

        "raw_content": "Black Cumin Seed Benefits: An Age-Old Remedy for \u201cEverything But Death\u201d\nJul 18, 2018 Carly Fraser Post contains aAffiliate links Save For Later Print\nThere are very few issues that black cumin seed cannot help the body overcome. Black cumin seed benefits are backed by hundreds of scientific peer-reviewed articles that confirm the claims made by early prophets regarding this tiny seed.\nIt is interesting to me that black cumin seed hasn\u2019t been promoted throughout the health community like wild fire. Instead, things like kale and turmeric (while still quite beneficial) have taken the main stage.\nWhat is Black Cumin Seed?\nBlack cumin seed (also called black coriander or black seed), comes from the Nigella Sativa plant that is native to Asia, the Mediterranean and Africa. Most people confuse black cumin seed for regular cumin, but it isn\u2019t the same thing.\nBlack cumin seed has been used for thousands of years, dating back to Ancient Egypt. There\u2019s evidence that the seeds were found in ancient Egyptian burial sites (1). Not only that, but the seeds and oil have been used by Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine practitioners for thousands of years to fight disease and help heal the body.\nAccording to some reports, Cleopatra used black cumin seed oil to ensure luscious hair and soft, blemish-free skin. Hippocrates was also a fan of black cumin seed to help with digestive troubles.\nIn Arab cultures, black cumin is known as Habbatul barakah, which means the \u201cseed of blessing.\u201d The Islamic prophet Mohammed is also reported to have named black cumin seed as \u201ca remedy for all diseases except death (3).\u201d\nNow, current research has been backing up these very claims. They\u2019ve found that black cumin seed is an incredibly potent anti-microbial and contains three key compounds that assist the body in fighting disease. These compounds include thymoquinone (TQ), thymohydroquinone (THG) and thymol.\nPhytochemicals in Black Cumin Seed\nTQ, THG and thymol are important phytochemicals that benefit the body in multiple ways.\nThymoquinone (TQ) is a well-known antioxidant and anti-inflammatory with strong anti-cancer properties. It has been reported to help with encephalomyelitis, diabetes, asthma and carcinogenesis (4). Being an antioxidant, TQ helps scavenge free radicals in the body, and also helps preserve the master antioxidant glutathione (which protects the liver from toxins) (5).\nThymohydroquinone (THG) is a natural acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, which stops enzyme activity, extending the time that the neurotransmitter acetylcholine stays active in the brain (6). The pharmaceutical industry has their own versions of AChE inhibitors, which are used to help with conditions like Alzheimer\u2019s disease, autism, glaucoma, dementia, Parkinson\u2019s disease, Schizophrenia and other neurodegenerative conditions (7).\nThymol is another active phytochemical found in black cumin seed, and is useful for fighting viruses like tuberculosis. It also acts as a wonderful general-purpose disinfectant, and an effective natural pesticide (8).\nWhile these compounds are abundant in black seed, they aren\u2019t the only ones. Other bioactive compounds in the seed include alpha-hederin, alkaloids, flavonoids, fatty acids vitamins B1, B2, B3, calcium, folate, iron, copper, zinc and phosphorous.\nBlack Cumin Seed Benefits\nBlack cumin seed benefits range from cancer prevention, all the way to diabetes management. There are now over 650 peer-reviewed studies that have looked into the health benefits of black seed. Some of the most compelling research is highlighted below.\nBlack seed oil has been shown to naturally beat and treat cancerous cells. This is mainly thanks to high levels of thymoquinone found within the seed. Research published in Drug Discovery Today made note that thymoquinone has a long history of battling cancer in vitro and in vivo, and modulates nine of the ten hallmarks of cancer (9). Another study published in the journal Experimental Oncology found that thymoquinone and thymohydroquinone resulted in a 52 percent decrease in tumor cells in an animal model (10).\nOther studies have found that thymoquinone is effective in initiating cell death in leukemia cells, breast cancer cells and brain tumor cells (11, 12, 13). In addition, it also appears to inhibit the development of pancreatic cancer (14).\nBlack cumin seed decreases oxidative stress, thanks to high levels of antioxidants and compounds like thymoquinone. As a result, it can help preserve the integrity of pancreatic beta cells. This is great news for diabetics, given oxidative stress decreases the efficiency of pancreatic beta cells, making it difficult for the body to properly modulate the production and release of insulin.\nIn fact, one study found that black seed \u201cimproves glucose tolerance as efficiently as metformin; yet it has not shown significant adverse effects and has very low toxicity (15).\u201d\nTo be effective, individuals with diabetes should consume two grams of black cumin per day for three months. According to one study, this much black seed every day will help reduce fasting blood sugar and HbA1c, as well as increase the functionality of pancreatic beta cells (16).\nAccording to one study performed on a group of obese men, black seed showed \u201csignificant weight loss and reduced waist circumference with a mild reduction in fasting blood sugar, triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein levels (17).\u201d Another study published in the Journal of Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders that systematically reviewed plants with anti-obesity properties found that black seed oil was among the most effective natural remedies on the planet in reducing weight (18).\nBlack cumin seed provides vitamins A, B and C, along with minerals like calcium, potassium, zinc and magnesium. Essentially everything your skin and hair need to thrive and be healthy. The fatty acids found in black seed provide deep, long-lasting moisturization for the skin, as well as dry, brittle hair shafts. These fatty acids will also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.\nOne study found that black seed was just as effective as the skin cream Bethamethasone in reducing the severity of hand eczema (19).\nBlack seed also contains the compound nigellone, which research has found to work as an impressive antihistamine. This may help with those dealing with hair loss due to androgenic alopecia or alopecia areata (20). It can also help by maintaining the health of ones scalp by providing anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and analgesic properties. It also helps keep the scalp moisturized and balances the production of oils.\n5. Respiratory Health\nA variety of different studies have found that black seed oil has anti-asthmatic effects, and depending on the cause of asthma, black seed was often more effective than conventional treatment (21). In another study, thymoquinone was found to be effective in reducing two inflammatory mediators of asthma and other inflammatory processes (22). For these very reasons, black cumin seed is also beneficial in reducing seasonal allergies.\n6. Infections (MRSA)\nMRSA, otherwise known as methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus, is easily destroyed by black cumin seed oil. One study took several strains of MRSA and found that each one was sensitive to N. sativa, which confirmed that black seed oil can slow down or stop MRSA from getting out of control (23).\nAnother study wanted to determine just how potent black seed oil was against some MRSA-resistant superbugs, so they paired it against antibiotics like Amoxicillin, Gatifloxacin, and Tetracycline. According to the study, \u201cOut of 144 strains tested, most of which were resistant to a number of antibiotics, 97 were inhibited by the oil of black cumin (24).\u201d\nThymoquinone in black seed oil has also been shown to have protective effects on the heart (25). Not only does it help promote healthy cholesterol levels, but it has been shown to help normalize blood pressure levels as well (26). Thymoquinone found in black seed may also benefit endothelial dysfunction, which is often involved in cardiovascular-related disorders.\n8. Liver Benefits\nScientists have also found that black seed oil boosts liver function and helps prevent damage and disease of the organ (27). This is important, given the liver has the important task of detoxing the body and getting rid of unwanted toxins that would otherwise settle in our fat cells and contribute to disease and illness down the road. The liver keeps the rest of your body happy and healthy, so consuming foods that support the liver (like black seed oil), will ensure it does its job properly.\n\u2013 Improving fertility\n\u2013 Aids in digestion (may decrease gas, bloating and stomach pain)\n\u2013 Remedy for intestinal parasites\n\u2013 Helpful in battling candida and fungal infections\nWhere To Buy Black Cumin Seed\nWhen buying black cumin seed, or black seed oil, always be sure to purchase a brand that is 100 percent pure, therapeutic grade, cold-pressed and certified organic. I personally like the brand Madre Nature, but any brand that passes these qualifications should do. You can also purchase black cumin seed capsules if you\u2019re not a fan of the spicy flavor.\nHow To Use Black Cumin Seed\nBlack cumin seed can be used in a variety of different ways. My personal favorite is consuming it internally by putting it in a salad, juice or smoothie. Others might prefer to take black seed in capsule form.\nBlack seed oil can also be used topically by diluting it in a carrier oil like jojoba oil. If you\u2019re dealing with an inflammatory skin condition like dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis or acne, dilute black seed oil one to one with a carrier oil, and massage into the skin. You can also use it topically for areas of the body where you may be experiencing aches and pains.\nBlack seed oil can be used as a hair mask by letting the oil sit on your hair and scalp overnight (and then washing out the following morning).\nHowever you choose to use it, black cumin seed oil should definitely have a place in your home! The benefits you\u2019ll receive are limitless.\nFiled Under: Herbs & Spices, Remedies Tagged With: black cumin, black cumin seed benefits, black cumin seed oil, black seed, black seed oil cures, cancer prevention, weight loss secrets\n7 Benefits of Grapefruit Seed Extract You Won\u2019t Believe\nMake this Chia Seed Green Smoothie For Better Digestion and Cellular Repair\nTry This Protein-Packed Blueberry Coconut Chia Seed Pudding!\nQuickly Boost Your Mood and Energy with this Raw Tropical Chia Seed Smoothie\nThis Strawberry Chia Seed Smoothie Contains 6 Times More Calcium Than Milk and 41% of Your Daily Fiber\nwanderer55 says\nHi, I just wanted to give you the heads up on 'Arabic' cultures, Arabic is the language spoken in Arab cultures, so for example, the Lebanese who speak Arabic are from an Arab culture and so forth.\nThanks though great article, especially insightful on what profit Muhammad reported to have known on this wonderful healthy seed, and not too long ago 7th century CE.\nThanks for the education, I've changed it to Arab!",

        "raw_content": "What The 2015 Budget Means For London\nLondonist Staff What The 2015 Budget Means For London\nPhoto by Ian Davidson from the Londonist Flickr pool\nThe Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, delivered the first Conservative Budget since 1996 to a packed House of Commons on Wednesday. Amid all of the booing, sneering, cheering, jeering, taunting, flaunting and heckling (and that was just from his own side), came some interesting changes to benefits and housing.\nThe big one is the new 'national living wage' \u2014 in effect, a new minimum wage of \u00a37.20 an hour, starting from April 2016, rising to \u00a39 an hour by 2020. But, crucially, this is only for the over 25s and it's less than the living wage recommended by the Living Wage Foundation, currently set at \u00a37.85 nationally and \u00a39.15 for London. Nobody's quite sure if this will be enough to take some of the sting out of the four year freeze and lower thresholds on working tax credits (also not available if you're under 25 and without children), it still doesn't provide enough to live on in London's superheated housing market without resorting to other types of benefit. Speaking of which...\nOther working-age benefits, like Jobseekers' Allowance, Employment and Support Allowance, Income Support, Child Benefit, Housing Benefit and Local Housing Allowance (LHA) will also be frozen for four years \u2014 though there will be \"provision for high rent areas\" for LHA, which we assume means London. 18-21 year olds are now no longer automatically entitled to housing benefit. As was widely anticipated, the benefit cap has been reduced to \u00a323,000 for London and the inheritance tax threshold was raised.\nWe\u2019ve also picked out a few cultural and transport areas which affect London:\nThe Battle of Britain Bunker at RAF Uxbridge (which we recently visited) will receive \u00a31m to renovate and maintain the Battle of Britain Operations Room which coordinated the air defence of London and the South of England in WWII.\nThe Government is \u2018backing\u2019 Museum of London\u2019s move to a new site \u2014 although no figures were given in the Treasury\u2019s supporting documentation. The museum wants to move from London Wall to Smithfield General Market.\nThe government \u2018reaffirms\u2019 its commitment to supporting \u00a310bn of transport investment in London over this Parliament.\nGovernment plans to improve rail passenger journey times between London and the East of England, with Ipswich in 60 minutes and Norwich in 90 minutes being the targets.\nBy Rachel Holdsworth and Andy Thornley",

The non-consenting parent can tell SACAT why the child's name should not be changed, and it is up to the tribunal to make its decision, taking all matters into account.\nThe Family Court has set out the following factors that a court or tribunal should consider in deciding whether or not a child's name should be changed:\nthe welfare of the child is the main consideration\nthe short and long term effects on the child of changing the child's name\nany embarrassment that is likely to be experienced by the child if the child's name is different from that of the parent with guardianship and/or residence\nany confusion of identity that may arise for the child if the child's name is, or is not, changed\nthe effect that a change of name may have on the relationship between the child and the parent whose name the child previously had\nthe effect on the child of frequent or random changes of name.\nSACAT takes into account the relationship between the non-consenting parent and the child and the contact that parent has had, or is likely to have, with the child. The Tribunal will also consider the degree of identification the child has with that parent, or with the parent applying (and where applicable, any step parent). If the tribunal makes an order authorising the change of a child's name, the Registrar may then accept the application to register the change of name.\nEven where SACAT makes an order authorising the change of a child's name, the change must still be registered at the Births, Deaths and Marriages Registry for it to be effective.\nCosts apply for both applying to SACAT for an order authorising the change of a child's name, and for the subsequent registration of the change with the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages (which includes the new birth or change of name certificate).\nBy order of SACAT : Last Revised: Mon Jul 9th 2018",

        "title": "Neanderthal Bear Cultism in the Paleolithic | Lumine Boreali",
        "raw_content": "Neanderthal Bear Cultism in the Paleolithic\nDiscussion in 'Anthropology' started by Arboreality, 21 September 2018.\npolar symbolism\nThis doesn't sound plausible at all.\nIt could be a possibility, but I'd need more evidence to be sure.\nThis is definitely plausible, I believe that this is true.\nI've known that something like this was true for a while.\nThis is true, but this is just the tip of the iceberg, think bigger.\nThis is something I've always found to be strangely interesting. In general, prehistoric religion gives you a lot of interesting insights. For those who aren't familiar, there is a theory put forward by Emil B\u00e4chler after excavating the Drachenloch cave in eastern Switzerland. He found the arranged skeletal remains of an extinct bear species known as Ursus spelaeus, also known as the cave bear. It was a large and particularly intelligent variety of bear that mainly lived in caves, so finding its remains there wasn't too weird.\nHowever, the skull and leg bones were arranged into formations that looked very deliberate. One such skull had a femur penetrating its cheek, an arrangement that B\u00e4chler thought only possible if the femur is turned as it is pushed in. These arrangements were extremely unlikely to be naturally occurring. Therefore, his conclusion was that he had discovered a very early shrine dedicated to this the cave bear of Europe's caves. B\u00e4chler estimated the period during which the cave would have been accessible (i.e. not blocked by Ice Age glaciers) while the bear existed was well over 100,000 years ago.\nLater on Andr\u00e9 Leroi-Gourhan would find the exact arrangements all the way in Sa\u00f4ne-et-Loire. Although, it's worth noting that Gourhan himself was skeptical and considered the arrangements to be just an extreme fluke of flooding and other happenstance. Nonetheless, this could, and in the minds of some, does imply the existence of an ancient cult of Neanderthals that was spread over a fairly large distance. There is definitely motive for some in the mainstream to debunk this, and I want to talk more about that in other posts. However, I'd like to hear what you have to say. Feel free to share similar paradigms.\nThis is a bit of a conundrum for me. Do we come from neanderthals in part? Or were they the ones that formed the basis for white people when we were created and popped out of nowhere as Cro Magnon? Complete with stories of Atlantis and all that. It is a piece of the puzzle that I am not quite sure about what to make of, modern anthropology being what it is, nothing is reliable. To be honest I have lots of pieces but not the entire picture. Maybe no one does. Too many jews with an agenda in controlling positions when it comes to neanderthals in particular. Varg Vikernes made a video about that a while back, and I can't say I can fault his scepticism on those grounds. If history for the last thousands of years has something to teach it is never to trust in anything where jews are concerned. There is always one or many harmful agendas. One thing about the neanderthals is that they seem to have possessed the inventiveness, thtat aryan spark and soul, that has since then been the hallmark of the european peoples and no one else.\nIt's very difficult to accurately study the past along with to some extent the future in a Modern age where the present is held to be the most important and even the most, \"real.\" Prehistory is on another level altogether, and so is our distant mythical past. I wouldn't feel confident making any sort of absolute statements. The best we can do is compare various Traditional paradigms, but even those have been corrupted to some extent over the millennia. You also need to be able to read between the lines when it comes mainstream science, but of course there are complications there as well.\nTo sum up my views on the Neanderthals, I'd say that there are many people walking around today with at least some Neanderthal DNA heritage in them, In much of history and even in mythology we have references to particular Neanderthals who had a big impact. Those with this DNA tend to be much more creative, conscious, lucid, higher-willed, and leadership-oriented. I think that there is more Neanderthal in us than is generally acknowledged. However, this is mainly in northern Eurasia, particularly in the regions the Neanderthals were most distributed. Without this DNA you're what Serrano would call a, \"man-ant.\"\nThe mainstream has a lot of things wrong about the Neanderthals, that much is certain. It was only recently that they'd even acknowledge that they weren't mute, savage cannibals. Thus, the association of the word with brutishness and/or stupidity. This is why Traditionalists don't like Darwinism that much, at least as a metaphysical model, because it tends to be used to justify a linear view of history of lower-to-higher states. Of course, the truth about biological evolution is that it's not a linear process at all, and has metaphysical implications that complement Traditionalism moreso than they complement Modernity. I will make posts about these topics in the future.",

November 2015 carmenaguilera83Grahame Lucas Hinterlasse einen Kommentar\nhttp://blogs.dw.com/womentalkonline/2015/11/16/women-and-their-rights-the-reality/\nThe bitter truth can be found in Latin America, Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa. I am a woman and I know for sure how far our rights are protected. I understand the problems that could come with our rights but we deserve dignity, respect and to be treated with love. We have the right to fight for change and not be discriminated because of it. It is a pity that in many countries boundaries have been set up against women. But we must not allow ourselves to be restricted. All human beings are equal. Every person has dignity and deserves to be treated equally and respected.\nWomen have to be treated as equal to men. We have legal rights to develop ourselves and to be heard by the governments which are supposed to defend our rights. This has been done by several organizations that fight for the rights of Mexican women who were raped and beaten, for example \u201cCamino de olvido\u201d (the forgotten way). We have the right to be heard by the Mexican government and the officials responsible for supporting women\u2019s rights. But that is not always the case.\nWhat kind of a world is it, where we live in a society but do not have any value? I am a citizen of this world and I believe that I have the same rights as men to fight for my future, to fight for the same payment and for a better future for my children. If women do not have the chance to have the same payment for the same work, we will not have the chance to improve our financial situation and our home.\nNo woman should be discriminated in any type of work anymore. We deserve respect in our job. The reality is many women in some countries do not get the same amount of money as their male colleagues for the same work, for example in Germany. Is it possible that women have less value than men? According to official documents such as German Constitution, Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union etc., every human being has the right to get education and this has to be guaranteed. Apart from that women also have the right to choose their own husband.\nUnfortunatelly in some Middle Eastern countries women are not even allowed to drive cars or motorcycles. They are also not allowed to develop themselves, and not allowed to choose their own husband. We are human beings and we have the right to decide our own destiny. Nobody can be forced to love or marry somebody they do not like. And we are not slaves, our feelings have to respected.\nEducation is the foundation of everything and for all of us in the global systems of human development. Why is it that some men do not understand that it cannot be done with violence? I think it is not hard to comprehend.\nWe can still change this world, and we can still respect each other. For those men who are gentlemen and whose hearts are good, we wish their wives, girl friends and sisters all the best.\nEditor: Marjory Linardy, Grahame Lucas\n\u2192 Menschen, Frauen, Kinderrechten, Pressfreiheit und Meinungsfreiheit\u201c\n\u2190 Wanderung nach Herkunfts \u00fcber die Grenzen aus Deutschland",

        "raw_content": "A talk at University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory, Cambridge, UK, 26 Oct 2016\nThis is a joint talk with Diana Vasile, a repeat of a talk we previously gave at Strange Loop.\nEveryone is talking about \u201ccloud computing\u201d, a marketing term for \u201crenting time on someone else\u2019s computers on the internet\u201d. While the cloud is great from an efficiency point of view, it is a potential security nightmare: applications have to blindly trust cloud providers that they will preserve the integrity of the data and prevent unauthorised access. Data breaches and compromises of cloud providers are a serious risk.\nEnd-to-end encryption allows us to avoid having to blindly trust the servers. An early example is PGP/GnuPG encrypted email, which never went mainstream, but more recent secure messaging apps like WhatsApp, Signal and iMessage have shown that it is feasible for millions of people to use end-to-end encryption without being security experts.\nHow do these protocols actually work? In this talk, we will give a friendly introduction to secure messaging protocols \u2014 to understand the threats against which they defend, and how cryptographic operations are combined to implement those defences in the protocol. If you have ever wondered what \u201cforward secrecy\u201d means, how key exchange works, or how protocols can ensure you\u2019re communicating with the right person (not an impostor like a \u201cman in the middle\u201d), this talk will clear things up.\nWe will give a dramatic live performance of security protocols, guaranteed to make a dry subject interesting!",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / AHL / Tyler Toffoli\u2019s final interview before leaving Los Angeles\nTyler Toffoli\u2019s final interview before leaving Los Angeles\nSoon the entire hockey world will know of Tyler Toffoli.\nLongtime MayorsManor readers have already come to know the 20-year old Toronto native \u2013 ever since the Kings selected him in the second round of the 2010 NHL Draft. He\u2019s appeared here on a regular basis, taking along on his journey from 57 goals in the OHL, to the heart breaking news that he wouldn\u2019t make Tean Canada for the World Junior Championships (not once, but twice!), from being mentored by the legendary Brain Kilrea in Ottawa to becoming a first-year pro this season.\nAlong the way, we\u2019ve been introduced to a humble sniper who knows how to fill the net as easily as he can laugh at himself while talking about his yearning to get a tan anytime he\u2019s in Los Angeles.\n\u201cIt\u2019s too cold for that right now,\u201d he said after the Kings finished up practice today.\nIndeed it is, which is something new for Toffoli. He\u2019s used to being here in July for Development Camp or the fall for Rookie Camp. This is the first time he\u2019s seen LA in January. It\u2019s not likely to be the last though.\nToffoli left Manchester having already scored 18 goals this season, twice as many as any of his teammates.\nStill, he knew it would be a longshot to make the Kings roster this season. But it didn\u2019t stop him from trying.\n\u201cThere are so many guys here, I didn\u2019t really expect to make it,\u201d said the young right wing. \u201cI definitely wanted to. But, I\u2019ll just go back to Manch and just keep working hard and playing the way I have been all year.\u201d\nNothing ever seems to phase him.\nHe just pushes forward despite any obstacles thrown in front of him or what people say about him, including the knock that he can\u2019t skate very well.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think (those people) really realize the type of player I am,\u201d Toffoli explained. \u201cI\u2019m not going to be the first guy down on the forecheck and wearing guys out. I\u2019m going to be shooting the puck and doing my best to score goals. I think I\u2019ve proved a lot of people wrong already with what I\u2019ve been doing in the American League and hopefully I can do it in the NHL soon.\u201d\nOh he will, that\u2019s a given. Toffoli is one of the elite prospects in the Kings organization at the moment and the scouts who had him pegged as a first rounder back in his draft year sure look like the smart ones now.\nWith Manchester he\u2019s playing on a line featuring two of the Kings other future top-6 forwards, center Linden Vey and left wing Tanner Pearson. But today, there was a small sneak peek of what\u2019s likely to come sooner rather than later \u2013 Toffoli was put on a line with Anze Kopitar at practice.\n\u201cYeah, he\u2019s obviously a great player and it was really exciting,\u201d Toffoli told MayorsManor. \u201cA little nervous, but it was pretty cool.\u201d\nWait, he was nervous or you were nervous?\n\u201cI don\u2019t think he was too nervous,\u201d Toffoli said with his usual quiet laugh.\nAfter practice it was officially announced that Toffoli would be returning to Manchester immediately, where he\u2019ll be reunited with his usual linemates.\n\u201cVey is a great player,\u201d Toffoli proudly boasted when we asked about his regular center. \u201cIt\u2019s his second year, so he knows what it\u2019s like, he knows the grind of the season. He\u2019s been playing great and giving me the right opportunity to score goals too. Pears has also been working hard and our chemistry together has been really good.\u201d\nYou know what else is pretty good right now? Toffoli\u2019s hair.\n\u201cI might trim it up,\u201d he said, again with a little bit of a laugh. \u201cWe\u2019ll see, I\u2019m liking the flow right now. It\u2019s winter so you\u2019ve got to keep the hair long.\u201d\nHey, whatever he\u2019s doing, it\u2019s clearly working.\nWhile en route back to Manchester late this afternoon word came down that Toffoli has been selected to represent the Monarchs at the AHL All Star Game at the end of this month.\nIt\u2019s probably going to be his first and only appearance at the annual mid-season game because he\u2019s not expected to be in the AHL much longer.\nNo, Toffoli has NHL written all over him.\nFiled Under: AHL, HockeyBlog, Interview, Kings, NHL, Prospect Tagged With: AHL, comments, hockey, interview, Kings, Kopitar, Los Angeles, Manchester, Mayor, MayorsManor, Monarchs, NHL, Pearson, quote, Toffoli, Vey\nPressure doesn\u2019t seem to be mounting for Brad Richardson says:\n[\u2026] to the NHL offices later this afternoon, but they look to be OK for now.

        "title": "How to Be a Human Cannonball - MEL Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Culture Allison Copenbarger Vance February 16, 2016\nHow to Be a Human Cannonball\nBrian Miser, the \u201cHuman Fuse,\u201d makes a living turning daredevils into human projectiles\nOn a sunny September day in Peru, Indiana, three people circle up around a giant crossbow. Like the barn next to it, the apparatus is painted red; down its length, an orange and silver lightning bolt has been jauntily applied.\nTo one side of the crossbow is its creator, Brian Miser. A former Ringling Bros. performer, the wiry and youthful 52-year-old built his brand as the \u201cHuman Fuse\u201d by becoming the only person in the world to shoot himself out of a cannon while fully engulfed in flames. At the back of the crossbow is his wife, Tina, who performed alongside her husband from time to time\u200a\u2014\u200aa pair of his-and-her human cannonballs, launched simultaneously.\nJoining the Misers is Kristen Finley, a 36-year-old acrobat from Los Angeles dressed in a tight black tank top, leggings, and sneakers. Following a 12-year career as a professional trapeze artist in various circuses around the country, Finley is looking to fill a recently vacated opening for \u201chuman cannonball understudy\u201d in the Ringling Bros. circus. The new job would allow Finley to continue working longer, since it\u2019s actually less physically demanding than swinging from a trapeze. It would also mean a multiple-year contract with Ringling Bros., a promise of financial security so rare for this industry that Finley has taken a hiatus from her position in a national touring circus and come to this farm in Peru, Indiana, to study the craft. But before she\u2019s ready for the cannon, she\u2019ll have to master the crossbow, the equivalent of training wheels for human projectiles.\nFinley does a few stretches and then climbs aboard, her black hair swept back into a tight ponytail, no helmet. (As Miser always says, people don\u2019t pay money to see daredevils in helmets). Per her trainer\u2019s instructions, Finley assumes an aerodynamic position on her belly: her head forward, her arms at her sides, her feet flat against the launching plate.\nMiser gives the signal to Tina to start the countdown\u200a\u2014\u200a\u201cFive! Four! Three! Two! One! Go!\u201d Then, she pushes a lever. With a loud electric thunk, Finley is shot high into the air, her arms angled out like wings from her sides. At the top of her arc, she tucks her head and flips gradually forward, landing safely on her back on a large inflated pad, 60 feet out from the crossbow. Though her flight and landing looked good enough to an untrained eye, the frown curling below Miser\u2019s crooked nose (the result of a trapeze mishap at age 14) indicates his displeasure as he helps Finley off the canvas.\n\u201cYou\u2019re dipping your shoulder,\u201d he complains. Doing that in a show could alter her flight path, causing her to miss the landing pad\u200a\u2014\u200a\u201cwhich you definitely don\u2019t want to do,\u201d Miser warns.\nCrossbow Practice\nFinley sets her jaw. For the 67th time over the past 10 days, she returns to the platform to try again. Miser is a tough coach. But that\u2019s because he knows that the difference between the cannon as a performance tool or a death trap is all in the details.\n\u201cI think I was always a daredevil,\u201d Miser says, tinkering with the 4,000-pound cannon stored in his barn.\nSince he was old enough to walk, he was always pulling stunts\u200a\u2014\u200ajumping off furniture, walking down stairs on his hands, leaping from the top of the hill behind his childhood home (just a mile from where he lives now) to see how long he could soar. \u201cIt scared me to death,\u201d remembers his mother, Roberta, but she signed him up for tryouts at the local amateur children\u2019s circus, nevertheless. (Miser had the good fortune to grow up in Peru, the self-proclaimed \u201cCircus Capital of the World,\u201d home to the winter headquarters for Ringling Bros. and the International Circus Hall of Fame.)\nLittle Brian immediately excelled in the children\u2019s circus. On the trampoline, he would watch a trainer do a trick, repeat it effortlessly and then go home to practice on his parents\u2019 bed. He quickly found his calling with trapeze. After high school, Miser went on vacation with his family to Orlando and convinced his parents to let him apply for a job at Circus World, one of the area\u2019s many theme parks. He was hired on the spot. When the rest of the family loaded up the car to go home, they left behind 17-year-old Brian, the youngest of four boys and the baby of the family. Roberta says she cried all the way.\nPhoto via Brian Miser\nOver the next 16 years, Miser made his living as a flying trapeze artist, first for Circus World, then for Ringling Bros., then in his own troupe. But there\u2019s a high degree of burnout in such a physically demanding job, and by 34, an old shoulder injury made him think about what was next. One day an idea came to him: If he could figure out how to become a human cannonball, he could work on his own and not worry about the complexities of managing a group of performers.\nThere was only one problem: nobody was willing to train him since that could amount to training one\u2019s replacement in such a competitive field. Miser decided he\u2019d teach himself and paid $55,000 for a cannon from a former performer who\u2019d been paralyzed after overshooting his target. He stored it in the bed of a pickup truck outside his RV at the trailer park in Reno, Nevada, which he called home. In order to teach himself the logistics of flight, Miser started testing the cannon at a buddy\u2019s ranch, using a 138-pound flight dummy (his weight at the time) as his projectile. After 15 successfully landed trials, Miser climbed inside and tried it himself.\n\u201cI don\u2019t really show a lot of excitement,\u201d Miser says. \u201cBut when I was in the air on that first one I yelled the entire flight. It was so exhilarating. Then we went back and drank champagne to celebrate.\u201d Eventually, over a six-month period, he worked his way up from 20 to 120 feet. Thanks to his network of contacts from his trapeze artist days, he started quickly booking shows all over the world. And after meeting Tina in 1999\u200a\u2014\u200aa circus trainer in Peru whom he asked out while back home to recover from five broken bones at a show in Japan\u200a\u2014\u200aMiser was soon booking shows for two. After marrying Tina in 2002, Miser built a double-barreled cannon so they could fly simultaneously.\nThe fire idea came next\u200a\u2014\u200aan attempt to up the ante and attract more business. Other people had flown much farther, but distance wasn\u2019t possible since many of his gigs were inside smaller local arenas. He began to wonder: What if he lit himself on fire and then flew across the arena? It had never been successfully accomplished, not that others hadn\u2019t tried.\nMiser began researching the right combination of textiles and materials to use for a flight-suit, face mask and gloves. On his inaugural attempt, however, Miser\u2019s cannon nearly blew up. Many trials later, Miser honed the secrets he still guards closely, which include wearing auto-racing shoes\u200a\u2014\u200amade to withstand fires during wrecks\u200a\u2014\u200aand holding his breath for the entire 30-second act, so as to not damage his lungs via smoke inhalation while on fire. Upon landing, Tina would dowse him with a carbon-dioxide fire extinguisher.\nApart from a handful of times when the goggles shifted due to his crooked nose and he breathed in smoke, Miser suffered no ill effects. Crowds were astonished.\nIn short order Ringling Bros. snapped up the act and the Misers found themselves traveling the country on a steady paycheck. Life seemed perfect. \u201cShe lights me on fire and then shoots me,\u201d Brian liked to say. \u201cIt\u2019s every wife\u2019s dream.\u201d\nIn 2003, the couple had a daughter, Skyler; for the next few years they continued to travel as a family on tour. When Skyler was ready for first grade, they bought a big house on a large lot. In the backyard they built a full-size trapeze rig. Miser continued to travel while Tina stayed home with Skyler, but after three years, time on the road began to take its toll. Miser quit the full-time cannonball gig and moved back to Peru. He loves spending more time with his family but says the transition has been difficult at times.\n\u201cStaying at home was a big adjustment,\u201d he says. \u201cI went from 400 shows a year to cleaning out kitchen cabinets. I didn\u2019t have a hard time as far as my identity goes, but it\u2019s hard for me to relax. I\u2019m still learning how to take it a little more easy.\u201d\nWhen Ringling Bros. asked if he would be willing to train others, he embraced the new role. He still does private gigs by invitation; he says he makes about $200,000 on gigs and consulting.\nAt Miser\u2019s house about a week later, the team readies for another practice that feels more like a performance, seeing as a small crowd has gathered to watch. Miser\u2019s mom and dad, who retired from the Air Force several years ago, are visiting from down the road. Tina\u2019s dad, also a retired military man who lives nearby, is here with his little dog. A neighbor has dropped by with a family visiting from Denmark in tow.\nAfter more than 100 flights on the crossbow\u200a\u2014\u200athe longest of which was 64 feet\u200a\u2014\u200atoday Finley will take her first authentic flight as a human cannonball\u200a\u2014\u200ashot out of the 4,000 pound cannon Miser has been tinkering with. The landing pad has been placed 62 feet away.\nFinley is both confident and full of trepidation. She isn\u2019t embarrassed to admit that her learning curve has been steep. At first she was under-rotating, not turning her body enough, dipping her head too early. Later she acquired the habit of dropping one shoulder to correct her flight path, something that is helpful to trapeze artists but harmful when flying out of a cannon. Then, just as she\u2019d hit a groove\u200a\u2014\u200aand moved her best distance back to almost 60 feet\u200a\u2014\u200ashe hurt her ankle running.\nMore recently, Finley has turned things around. In Miser\u2019s notebook is a record of every one of her flights: distance from bag, angle of crossbow, air temperature, specific notes on technique and corrections. According to his notes, Finley is flying farther now. Her form is tighter and cleaner. Miser has decided: she is ready for the cannon.\nTina turns the key and switches on the cannon. The drone of the engine drowns out the nervous chatter of the small but close-knit crowd. For the spectators, she\u2019s quirky entertainment. But for her, this is a chance to make a dream into reality. It might seem like a game to some, but she has a lot on the line.\nFinley plays to the small audience, making a show of hoisting herself up onto the platform before climbing up the backside of the cannon, six feet in the air. As Miser adjusts the angle of the slick aluminum barrel, Finley walks gracefully along its length, like a gymnast working a balance beam\u200a\u2014\u200aonly the beam is slowly rising.\nAt the end of the barrel, 17 feet off the ground, the sun warms her face. Setting herself on the edge of the barrel, she opens her arms wide, acknowledging the crowd. After a small cheer, she disappears.\nMiser gives the ready sign.\n\u201cFive. Four. Three. Two. One. Go! \u201d\nFinley rockets forward and flies through the air, a black missile against a cloudless, powder blue sky. Just past the top arc of her flight, she tucks her head, flips her body and lands perfectly on her back\u200a\u2014\u200aher legs straight, her toes pointed stylishly.\nAs always Miser is there to meet her at the landing pad. Though the crowd of onlookers is whooping and cheering, Miser looks concerned.\n\u201cThat was a rough one,\u201d he says. \u201cYou were under-turned,\u201d meaning that her body was not arched enough at the correct time with her heels above her head. \u201cRemember, as your distance increases, you won\u2019t be able to correct yourself in the air.\u201d\nFrustrated, Finley returns to the cannon for another go. This time, she flies and lands perfectly.\n\u201cWhat did you change?\u201d Miser asks.\n\u201cI tried not to think about it,\u201d Finley says.\nAfter Finley\u2019s practice, it\u2019s Miser\u2019s turn. He\u2019s been contracted to do a stunt to help publicize Captain Morgan\u2019s new Cannon Blast rum. The plan is for Miser to be shot over two crowded streets in Orlando, Florida. Normally, he would be on fire, his signature, but executives nixed that idea, fearing consumers would confuse Cannon Blast with the whiskey brand Fireball.\nAfter being shot from a cannon almost 7,000 times over the course of his lifetime, it now comes naturally to Miser. But still, he hasn\u2019t performed in more than six months, and even a fine engine needs tuning. He goes inside the barn and emerges in his flying togs, a skin-tight neon orange jumpsuit with blue and neon stripes along the sides. He\u2019s ready to practice.\nMiser lines up the cannon and shoots the dummy one time to make sure the aim is true. Then, without ceremony, the Human Fuse disappears down the barrel of his cannon.\nMore than forty years since he first took off on that hill behind his house, Miser still loves to fly. Even if he didn\u2019t have to perform to make money, he could never give it up.\n\u201cNow that I\u2019m a normal person, I realize there\u2019s not a whole lot to look forward to in everyday life,\u201d he says. \u201cI don\u2019t know how I\u2019d feel if I couldn\u2019t perform. It\u2019s like getting my fix. I need that getaway.\u201d\n\u201cFive. Four. Three. Two. One. Go!\u201d\nAllison Copenbarger Vance is a freelance journalist based in Champaign, Illinois.

        "raw_content": "This morning, 83 year old Margaret* came to the front desk of the Mercy Retirement and Care Center to sign up for Brown Bag. She sat in a wheelchair as her companion filled out her entrance paperwork and explained to me that she had just recently broken her hip. \u201cI can\u2019t believe this happened to me,\u201d she told me through an accent made thicker with sadness. \u201cI\u2019m so active in the community, I try to give people what they need, and now I can\u2019t do anything.\u201d\nNot knowing the right words to express how much her story saddened me, I reached out for her hands. She took both of mine in hers and held them in her lap, resting on her knee. Margaret continued, \u201cAfter I paid my rent and paid for my medications, I realized there was nothing\u2026\u201d she stopped, looking for the words. \u201cNothing left over?\u201d I asked. She nodded, \u201cNothing left over.\u201d\nHer companion gave me her paperwork and I asked if she needed groceries today. The distribution closest to her house wasn\u2019t for another week. She confirmed emphatically, obviously worried that I wasn\u2019t going to be able to get her groceries today. Of course that wasn\u2019t the case and I left her to go to the warehouse and make her a bag. I found bread and plums for her, eggs and frozen ravioli, canned veggies and carrots. Filling the bag up, I hoped it wouldn\u2019t be too heavy for her to carry on her lap as her companion brought her home.\nI returned to her and when she saw the contents of the bag, she sat a little straighter in her chair. Taking my hands again, she said \u201cGod bless you.\u201d I can\u2019t remember the last time I felt so blessed.\n*the recipient\u2019s name has been changed to protect their privacy",

        "raw_content": "What was Operation \"Wetback?\" How Eisenhower influenced Donald Trump's immigration plan\nBy Stephanie Gaskell | Sept. 2, 2016\nRepublican presidential nominee Donald Trump laid out a 10-point plan to implement his evolving policies on immigration reform during a speech in Phoenix on Aug. 31.\nOne part of his plan is to end a process widely derided by critics as \"catch and release,\" where U.S. border patrol agents are instructed not to arrest low-level criminals who are also undocumented immigrants.\n\"We are going to end catch and release. We catch them, oh go ahead. We catch them, go ahead. Under my administration, anyone who illegally crosses the border will be detained until they are removed out of our country and back to the country from which they came,\" Trump said during his speech.\nThen Trump invoked former President Dwight D. Eisenhower \u2014 a leader who has clearly influenced his decisions on immigration.\n\"They&apos;ll be brought great distances. We&apos;re not dropping them right across. They learned that. President Eisenhower. They&apos;d drop them across, right across, and they&apos;d come back. And across. Then when they flew them to a long distance, all of a sudden that was the end. We will take them great distances. But we will take them to the country where they came from, OK?\" he said.\nThis isn&apos;t the first time Trump has mentioned Eisenhower while talking about immigration.\n\"Let me just tell you that Dwight Eisenhower \u2014 a good president, great president, people liked him,\" he said during a Republican primary debate in November. \"He moved a million and a half illegal immigrants out of this country, moved them just beyond the border. They came back. Moved them again, beyond the border: They came back. Then moved them way south. They never came back.\"\nWhat Trump is referring to is Operation Wetback, a highly controversial military-style operation created by Eisenhower, who was also a decorated U.S. Army general, to force undocumented Mexican immigrants out of the country and back to Mexico.\nThe operation began on June 17, 1954. Eisenhower put his former West Point classmate and World War II veteran Gen. Joseph Swing in charge as commissioner of the U.S. Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization.\nDonald Trump delivers his immigration policy speech in Phoenix on Aug. 31. Ralph Freso/Getty Images\nWith just over 1,000 border patrol agents \u2014 today the U.S. has more than 20,000 \u2014 the operation cracked down on undocumented immigrants crossing the border from Mexico. Some estimate that more than a million people were deported.\nAnd, as Trump pointed out during his speech in Phoenix, instead of deporting undocumented Mexican immigrants to just across the border, Eisenhower took them deeper into the country, making it more difficult for them to re-enter into the U.S.\n\"To discourage their return, Swing arranged for buses and trains to take many aliens deep within Mexico before being set free,\" wrote John Dillan in the Christian Science Monitor. \"Tens of thousands more were put aboard two hired ships, the Emancipation and the Mercurio. The ships ferried the aliens from Port Isabel, Texas, to Vera Cruz, Mexico, more than 500 miles south.\"\nAs for Trumps&apos; reference to Eisenhower removing 1.5 million undocumented immigrants, PolitiFact rates that as \"half true.\"\nWhile the idea that the operation resulted in more than 1 million deportations is not pulled out of thin air, historians widely cite that number as far too high for a variety of reasons \u2014 including the fact that hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants would have had to self-deport. Also, it wasn&apos;t just a deportation program. The campaign accompanied more legal immigration opportunities.\nThere&apos;s an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States. In 2011, about 60% of undocumented immigrants in the United States were from Mexico, according to the Department of Homeland Security.\nCritics of Operation Wetback also point out that the mission was \"tragic\" for many immigrants.\n\"The Eisenhower mass deportation policy was tragic,\" Alfonso Aguilar, of the American Principles Project&apos;s Latino Partnership, told NPR&apos;s Morning Edition.\nHuman rights were violated. People were removed to distant locations without food and water. There were many deaths, unnecessary deaths. Sometimes even U.S. citizens of Hispanic origin, of Mexican origin were removed. It was a travesty. It was terrible. Immigrants were humiliated. So to say it&apos;s a success story is ridiculous. It shows that Mr. Trump doesn&apos;t know what he&apos;s talking about.\nTrump defended his plan and its similarity to Operation Wetback in an interview with CNN&apos;s Jake Tapper back in January. Tapper noted that many have called the operation a \"shameful chapter in American history.\"\n\"Well, some people do, and some people think it was a very effective chapter,\" Trump responded. \"When they brought them back [to Mexico], they removed some, everybody else left. And it was very successful, everyone said. So I mean, that&apos;s the way it is. Look, we either have a country, or we don&apos;t. If we don&apos;t have strong borders, we have a problem.\"\nIn a recent Reddit AMA, Trump praised Eisenhower \u2014 along with George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan.\nHere's how Donald Trump's immigration policy went from extreme to extremely confusing Aug. 31, 2016\nFact checking every Hillary Clinton health conspiracy theory Aug. 25, 2016\nHere\u2019s how early voting could impact the 2016 election \u2014 and even determine who wins Aug. 24, 2016",

When President Obama was attacked for his decision to increase acceptance of Syrian refugees, Detroit became a national leader in publicly offering a home for these families.\nI\u2019ve had a chance to visit some of our refugees as they\u2019ve moved into their new homes in Detroit. Their stories are deeply moving: fleeing with young children from the horrors of war, barely subsisting in overcrowded refugee camps in Turkey or Jordan, often for years, until the lengthy U.S. vetting process finally clears them.\nWhen you hear the pride and excitement in their voices for their chance to start a new life in this country, you realize what America means to so many in the world. Our country won\u2019t be made safer by telling victims of oppression that America\u2019s doors are closed to them or by telling them they\u2019re unwelcome because of their religion.\nThat\u2019s just not who we are as Americans.",

        "raw_content": "*This is a guest post by Redbox.com.\nI loved Black Panther, as did most of the world (can someone say $1.3 billlllliiiion worldwide?). But when I walked out of the theater, it wasn\u2019t T\u2019Challa himself who\u2019d made the biggest impression on me\u2026 which led me to create this list of my 6 favorite Marvel characters that DON\u2019T have superpowers. I know people feel strongly about this kind of thing, so I want to apologize upfront to all of the Pepper Potts fans. [Crickets.]\nAunt May (Marisa Tomei) \u2013\nI admit that May hasn\u2019t had that much air-time between her appearances in Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming \u2014 and I get that some people were annoyed that they didn\u2019t pick an actress who was significantly older than Tomei in order to keep in line with the elderly character from the comics. But I for one am happy about the casting, because, come on, May\u2019s giddiness around and romantic tension with Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is hilarious.\nNed (Jacob Batalon) \u2013\nSpider-Man: Homecoming has a second \u201cnormal\u201d character that I loved as well: Ned, Peter Parker\u2019s (Tom Holland) best friend, who accidentally finds out about his buddy\u2019s alter-ego and is one part star-struck and the other part helpful sidekick.\nAgent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) \u2013\nMarvel fans LOVE this guy. And the crazy thing is that while he didn\u2019t even have that big of a role in the comics, he\u2019s now the character with THE MOST screen-time across the MCU, appearing in Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor, The Avengers and the TV series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Word is he might also appear in Captain Marvel coming up later this year. He\u2019s just a good man doing his job \u2014 someone everyone likes and respects.\nNick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) \u2013\nOnly someone as cool as Jackson could pull off playing the man who first assembled the Avengers. He\u2019s appeared in 8 MCU films so far, and (light spoiler territory here) had one of my favorite lines during the end-credits sequence in Avengers: Infinity War.\nOkoye (Danai Gurira) \u2013\nI\u2019ve been a fan of Gurira\u2019s for years thanks to her role as the katana-wielding Michonne on The Walking Dead, but I think even if I\u2019d never watched that show I would\u2019ve still loved her as the fierce Okoye, head of the all-female Dora Milaje (Wakanda\u2019s Special Forces and T\u2019Challa\u2019s bodyguards). She has some of Black Panther\u2019s (AND Avengers: Infinity War\u2019s) best facial expressions and best fight moves.\nShuri (Letitia Wright) \u2013\nWhile this list isn\u2019t ranked, if it were, Shuri would be my pick for #1 best Marvel character who\u2019s not a superhero. She was my absolute favorite part of Black Panther, and I\u2019d like to start lobbying for a Shuri spin-off already! On top of her teenage energy and playful relationship with her brother T\u2019Challa, she has the movie\u2019s funniest lines and the coolest technology in the MCU. It\u2019s fair to say that everyone is anxiously awaiting the first time she humbles Tony Stark with her mad skills and gadgets!\nTags :Marvel Characters",

        "raw_content": "While you were sleeping: Thousands call for Spanish unity; Most Americans have little fear of robots taking jobs\nTop stories from around the world:\nProtesters wave Spanish and Catalan Senyera flags during a pro-unity demonstration in Barcelona on Oct. 29, 2017. Pro-unity protesters were to gather in Catalonia's capital Barcelona, two days after lawmakers voted to split the wealthy region from Spain, plunging the country into an unprecedented political crisis. PIERRE-PHILIPPE MARCOU / AFP/Getty Images\nThe Spain-Catalonia political crisis continues: Tens of thousands of demonstrators, many of them carrying Spanish and official \u201csenyera\u201d Catalan flags, have gathered on a central Barcelona boulevard in a call for Spain\u2019s unity. The atmosphere was festive, as many cheered politicians and central government officials who joined the march. Some chanted \u201cPuigdemont, to jail!\u201d referring to the ousted regional leader who has been fired along with his Cabinet by the Spanish government after an independence declaration Friday. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has also dissolved Catalonia\u2019s parliament and called a regional election for Dec. 21. Demonstrators are chanting \u201cNow yes, we are going to vote!\u201d and applauding every time a national police helicopter flies over the crowd. \u201cThis is our police!\u201d they chanted.\nMost have little fear of robots taking jobs: Most Americans believe their jobs, and the jobs of those they live with, are safe from automation \u2014 at least for the next decade, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll. And more than half think automation could make their work easier or more efficient in the future. The findings suggest that while Americans express concern about how automation technology might cause some other people to lose jobs, they are less worried about its effect on themselves. Fifty-seven per cent of respondents said they thought it unlikely that they or someone in their household will be replaced at work by automation within the next 10 years, the survey found. A nearly identical proportion \u2014 56 per cent \u2014 said they consider it at least somewhat likely that their job will be improved by automation. Many think, for example, that such technology has made jobs safer. The poll\u2019s key findings echo those of other recent surveys. The Pew Research Center found in a survey released earlier this month that 70 per cent of Americans believe it unlikely that they will lose their jobs to automation. Those assessments may well prove accurate, according to recent analyses that foresee far fewer job losses resulting from automation compared with studies several years ago that had suggested that up to half of U.S. jobs could be replaced over the next two decades. A report released this month by the education company Pearson, Oxford University and the Nesta Foundation found that just one in five workers are in occupations that will likely shrink by 2030.\nIn this Tuesday, Dec. 8, 2015, file photo, people wait for their lunch orders to be ready at Eatsa in San Francisco. A new survey suggests that Americans vastly prefer dealing with people when they order food at a restaurant, rather than robots, but in most other settings they don\u2019t particularly care. Eric Risberg / AP\nChinese president\u2019s former secretary gets top Shanghai job: Chinese President Xi Jinping has promoted an ally to the top job in Shanghai, media reported Sunday. The elevation of Li Qiang is another sign of Xi\u2019s increasing control over China. Xi has amassed more personal power \u2014 and propaganda backing \u2014 than any leader since Mao Zedong in the 1970s, breaking with two decades of shared authority among a group of senior party figures. Part of his power accumulation efforts include promoting allies from Zhejiang province, which is near Shanghai and where Xi once led the Communist Party, to senior party, government and army posts. Li, 58, worked under Xi when Xi was party chief in Zhejiang from 2003-2007. Seen as a proponent of economic reforms, Li will likely champion Xi\u2019s vision for Shanghai as a global trading hub. The official Xinhua News Agency reported Sunday that Li replaces Han Zheng, who was elevated to the party\u2019s top decision-making body, the Politburo Standing Committee. Under Xi\u2019s leadership, the Communist Party has become increasingly assertive in promoting its own vision for how to regulate global finance, technology, news media and other matters. Outside monitoring groups say China strictly controls freedom of expression and abuses human rights.\nChinese President Xi Jinping has promoted an ally to the top job in Shanghai, media reported Sunday, Oct. 29, 2017.

Andy Wong / AP\nIran says it foils plot involving tomb of Cyrus the Great: Iran said Sunday it has foiled an online plot led by foreigners to spark dissent involving the tomb of Cyrus the Great on the day that many mark the birth of the Persian king by gathering at his grave. The Iranian judiciary\u2019s news agency Mizan reported that the Intelligence Ministry disrupted plans for an \u201cillegal gathering\u201d in Pasargad, some 800 kilometres (500 miles) south of Tehran. Roads to the area have been shut down over what authorities earlier described as an ongoing construction project. Online video purported to show fences earlier put up around the tomb. Iran\u2019s paramilitary Basij force was to hold a drill in the area. Demonstrations there last year were claimed by a variety of anti-government forces abroad as a sign of unrest in Iran. The U.S.-backed shah actively promoted Iran\u2019s ancient heritage and held a massive royal spectacle in 1971 to mark the 2,500-year anniversary of Cyrus\u2019 founding of the Persian Empire. Critics later pointed to the lavish celebrations as an example of Western decadence. The Iranian government has downplayed the country\u2019s pre-Islamic past since the 1979 revolution.\nIn this Oct. 12, 1971 file photo, honour guards line up during ceremonies to mark the 2,500 anniversary of the founding of the Persian Empire at the Tomb of Cyrus the Great, at Pasargad, Iran.

        "raw_content": "Devon Hawes, MATS\nMen, we know, often experience trauma throughout the course of their lives. It can be something that occurs during childhood, during adolescent years, or during adulthood. People who struggle with addiction often are more likely to have experienced some sort of traumatic event due to the things that can happen over the course of active addiction.\nWhat we do know is that men, due to societal norms, often experience and understand emotion differently. From a young age, many boys are taught you need to be strong. You need to be tough. You need to not cry or show your emotions. Men, over the course of their lives, reinforce those beliefs and social norms that have been instilled upon them. As a result, they don\u2019t necessarily understand the emotions they may experience when they first stop using, especially after they face a traumatic event that may have caused them to repress that memory or emotion.\nIn terms of addiction treatment, someone who has experienced trauma or has not really had the ability to understand or experience emotions they may be feeling for the first time may struggle to open up about their emotions. They may struggle to voice their feelings about active addiction and its effects, their mental health issues, or traumatic events that happened to them in the past. When a man has a hard time experiencing, discussing, and understanding his emotions, he might be more likely to shut down and not get what he needs in terms of treatment, whether that be an individual session or a group therapy session. This directly impacts the effectiveness of not only addiction treatment or mental health treatment, but also treatment of the root trauma itself.\nCould Anxiety Be Causing You to Drink?

        "raw_content": "Assessment, Ed Tech, Engagement, Guest Blogger, Innovation, Inspiration, mrkempnz, Student Voice, The Arts\nToday\u2019s blog is a guest post from my colleague Ramapriya Rajagopalan, known to most people as Priya. Priya is an educator based in Singapore. She has worked at Stamford American International School as an Elementary Teacher and EdTech Coach. She is an eternal optimist life-long learner, passionate about creativity in education. Connect with her on her blog and on Twitter.\nLast week, I took the above two photos of my Grade 3 students for their class display board. I asked her which one she thought I should print. Within seconds she not only chose picture B, she articulated so well, the reason for her choice. She was very pleased with \u2018picture B\u2019. She said, \u201c I feel that I am so important when I see that picture, the background is clear (she meant the blur) while in the other picture A, the background can be seen a lot that I do not seem to be so important\u201d.\nI was amazed at her reply because she is an EAL student who needs support for reading and writing, but she could articulate her thoughts so well when I presented her with the visual image. I was also impressed that she observed the background blurring, focal point, and zoom, and understood the visual impact these make. I realized how it raised her self-esteem when she said, \u201cI feel that I am so important when I see that picture\u201d.\nWe are all born with observation skills, aesthetic sense, curiosity to interact, play and learn by ourselves. But somewhere in the path of growing into an adult, it gets lost. \u201cThe creative adult is the child who has survived\u201d.\nI believe the ultimate goal of education is to nurture children to develop into adults who can reach their fullest potential during their life and are able to pass that vibrancy to people around them.\nPhotography gives the students a whole new enjoyable way to learn, express and share their thinking. They learn to observe the world around them more in details to gain an in-depth understanding of our world. As educators, we know the importance of observation to learn. We do that day in and day out. We observe our students and interact with them to understand their thinking and learning. Our students also need to interact with their environment and observe a lot to learn. It is a key skill that we need to nurture. The process of learning \u2018how to observe\u2019, through photography is an exciting one irrespective of age.\nWhen I say Photography, I don\u2019t really mean any specific gadget or tool. It\u2019s about the eyes that see and capture in mind, the details and beauty around us making us energized with the feeling of pleasure, gratitude. When I say Photography, I mean the power of creating something that means to us. In that perspective, Photography is a hands-on, open-ended task resulting in the meaningful making, connected to our real life and supports student agency.\nThe ability to share that learning & creation with the world has become possible with tech tools and digital photography. In the age where our students\u2019 heads and eyes are lowered into a gadget most of the day, we need to provide opportunities for them to lift their eyes and observe the world around them through tools they enjoy and here is where tools like smartphone cameras, DSLR cameras, software etc come into the picture. With the advent of cameras in iPads and 1:1 iPad implementation in many schools, it\u2019s much easier to get started with observing and capturing images that connect us with our learning.\nThe relation between Observation, Empathy, Aesthetics & Design thinking\nI would like to quote from @spencerideas\u2019 book \u201cLaunch cycle\u201d \u2013 Look, Listen & Learn (observation) is the first step in the design thinking process which leads us to empathize. Great design work often has both creative functional solutions (which is a result of observation & empathy) and aesthetic design, which is the visual pleasure, both of which is excessively learned through photography.\nI always used to wonder if photography is an art \u2013 as we love to capture the beauty around us and it provides such aesthetic pleasure, or a science \u2013 as we are trying to capture that light onto the sensor to form the image, or a math \u2013 with so many calculations involved in getting that stunning picture? or technology that just amazes us all with infinite possibilities to create and share what we experience with others?\nTruth is that it helped me to realize the importance of the trans-disciplinary approach to learning where we need to understand one in relation to other, transcend beyond all the disciplines to authentically make connections in the real world. For some its a creative outlet, for some its a profession. Photography has the power to move people and can be used to give back to the community and for a cause. It can be a powerful communication tool for students to voice their ideas to the betterment of society through visual images. Photography and Kindness are the only two languages understood anywhere by anyone in the world.\nRetaining and respecting the cultural diversity\nNow more than ever, we need to appreciate and respect the cultural diversity amongst us, as we collaborate and work towards one common goal \u2013 \u2018A fantastic future for our children\u2019. In a school environment, I believe its very important to help students to retain and cherish their cultural identity and help them to appreciate and respect the same in others. It is vital for social-emotional development. Photography, with its open-ended nature, provides a great opportunity for students to explore & share their own and their peers\u2019 identity, eventually promoting respect for the diversity. With 360 Photography and immersion technologies like VR, it is possible now to take students around the world to understand the beautiful heritage and history of places from which our students are from. As an educator interested in photography & cultural heritage, I have started creating 360 images of the places I visit, which I would eventually love to share with students. There are also many 360 images shared by photography enthusiasts on Google street view, which can be used with cardboard for VR experience.\nVisual literacy & Visual teaching strategies\nPhotography can be a great teaching visual aid just like other artworks, to use in VTS and visual literacy. We can use work from popular photographers initiate a discussion on various topics. I believe it is beneficial to discuss the photographic work created by our own students too, to understand various perspectives.\nThere are 3 ways of using photography in the classroom setting:\n1. Using Photos as a visual aid\n2. Photography as a creative process to learn, create, express & share ideas\n3. Integrating the mathematical and scientific concepts involved in photography with learning\nAll three ways are beneficial. The most important thing for students of any age is to observe, create, learn, share and collaborate. Here are my thoughts on benefits and use of photography in education as a sketch note:\nInteresting and thought-provoking article Priya \ud83d\ude42 Love your scrapbook graphics.",

        "raw_content": "The Melanesians, People of the South Pacific\nAt the mouth of the Sepik river and to a lesser extent the eastern coastal region of New Guinea, the spear is the preferred weapon for hunting and war. Hand thrown spears are long and heavy but a lighter bamboo spear is thrown with the aid of a throwing-stick. In most cases, spears are made with long slender wooden heads with many barbs and are often beautifully decorated with carved or incised designs. Spears used exclusively for hunting have points made of bamboo.\nThe throwing-stick is also made from a length of bamboo with a carved wood spear rest usually representing a bird set into a slot and tied just above the gripping area. A portion of the upper surface of the spear thrower is cut away, creating a trough to guide the butt of the spear into a socket formed by a natural joint in the bamboo spear-thrower. Dimensions vary but average length is about 30 inches with a 11/8 inch diameter. As with arrows used throughout New Guinea, spears are never fletched.\nA variation of the war spear thrown with the throwing-stick incorporated a spur tied to the spear at 1/2 of the overall length of the spear. The socket of the thrower engaged the spur instead of the butt of the spear, this allowed a much longer and more slender spear to be used. A bundle of plant fibers that look and act much like a badminton shuttlecock was tied a short distance behind the spur. The tip of the spear is made from long slender hard wood with many barbs. This spear was designed to be thrown high over the opposing forces where it would drop down almost vertically, posing a deadly distraction from above. The strategy was to throw light-weight spears directly at individuals who were caught looking skyward to avoid the verticle cross-fire. Depending on the severity of the conflict, one or two spear induced casualties would satisfy the combatants desire for revenge. Severe conflicts culminated in a headlong assault with clubs and axes producing terrible wounds and death. All-out warfare was generally avoided to prevent tribal disruption and instability caused by great loss of life.",

        "raw_content": "All the concerns of this essay, begin in Andalusia. Slavery was a matter, raised by Shylock at his trial, in the Merchant of Venice narrative. This topic is of cultural relevance to early modern English audiences. The bottom lines become clear in the earliest records of the English slave trade to which English American historiographers often omit from the discussion. Records show that the first English slaveholders and traders of \u201censlaved Moors\u201d were the English merchants resident in Andalusia in the last decades of the fifteenth and early decades of the sixteenth centuries, and further, that the English were the pioneers of the English slave trade with Morocco. \u2026\nIt is likely that such facts are omitted for the purposes of suppressing other realities that exist. For example, England entered into several treaties with Morocco in the 16th century prohibiting slavery long before the British implemented a public ban on the slave trade and before the United States enacted the Thirteenth Amendment. Most discussions about Black History in America revolve around the expeditions taken after those that follow the adventures of the Barbary Company and the practices of English merchants in Andalusia preceding the formation of that company. Questions about where the destination of slaves sold in Andalusia to English merchants is often not asked by African Americans because of the omissions of the English role in the Barbary aspect of the Atlantic Slave Trade which preceded English activity further south into West Africa.\nSource: \u201cPortia and the Prince of Morocco\u201d by Ungerer, Gustav \u2013 Shakespeare Studies, Vol. 31, Annual 2003\nTags: Moors, Black, English, America, Morocco, Andalusia, Slave, Portia, Prince",

He looks to be a man in his mid 40s, wearing plaid pants, brown shoes, black socks and a dirty white tank top. He has light brown hair and light brown facial hair. His name is not mentioned in-game, similar to most of the other job-related NPCs. He's seen drinking a bottle of booze, standing out in front of his house.\nWhen the player brings a trailer full of firewood in Kekmet, he will look at the player and motion his arm towards the end of his driveway, signalling for the player to back the trailer into his driveway. After the player dumps the firewood, he will thank the player and hand them their earned money. The developer ToplessGun has not added English subtitles for the words spoken upon delivery. The only quote he has with an English subtitle is when he is on the phone asking the player for a flatbed of firewood.\nThis character cannot be killed; although, if hit with an object (sledgehammer, pizza or even if the player walks too close to him) he can pass out and fall to the ground. Saving and reloading the game will fix this. If not he will not be there for the next fair few days and/or until the next phone call. Late during the night or early during the morning, he will not be standing in front of his house, most likely inside sleeping.\nMain article: Firewood guy/Transcript\n\"Hello!

        "raw_content": "My Internet Confession\nIn the process of starting my own business gaining internet access was huge. Not only did the Internet allow me to reach more people than my immediate circle but it created another problem.\nThe Internet allowed me access to observe what other designers were doing and I developed a bad habit of copying. Not copying in the sense of stealing someone else\u2019s work but copying by memorizing tactics and techniques without first knowing the motivations and course of action behind their decisions.\nOne of the ideas I copied was the thought to give the impression that my business larger than what I was. (There\u2019s nothing wrong with this, after all, I invented the internet.)\nWhen writing my bio, I wrestled with what I should put:\n(1) state I was a one-person shop or\n(2) state I am a part of a startup web studio.\nSo instead of Nathan, the web designer, I became a web design studio headquartered in Houston Texas.\nI will admit portraying myself as a medium sized web agency yielded different results than advertising myself individually. However, describing yourself as something you\u2019re not doesn\u2019t always reap good results.\nFor the longest time, I\u2019ve had a day job, and I freelanced, and for the life of me, I tried my best not to let anyone know that I had a day job because I wanted them to see me as a full-time freelancer.\nEven during one of my podcast interviews you can hear the surprise in RJ McCollam voice as he mentioned \u201cI learned a lot from you, he has learned a lot for me even though I\u2019m part-time\u201d. (Listen starting at 10:35)\nThere\u2019s something about full-time vs. part-time freelancers in which I felt full-time freelancers command more respect. There\u2019s this idea that clients will choose a full-timer over a part-timer because the part-timer cannot balance their day job and a client project. It may be true that part-timer\u2019s attention may be divided a full-timer\u2019s attention, however, is often divided between the multiple clients and this is true with a full-service agency.\nFulltimer\u2019s may have more time to speak with clients at random parts of the day but when it comes to respect it all depends on the quality of work you produce. Rather than trying to cover up the fact that I was a part-time freelancer I should have discussed how my current role allowed me the unique insight into the problems business face every day and how it benefited me as a designer. The day job is nothing but a recurring client that I see every weekday.\nIf I wanted to overcome the difficulty of schedule I could have easily partnered with different agencies let them do the client services part, and then I focus on producing quality work.\nSince there is such a low barrier to entry, there has been an explosion of online entrepreneurs and creative professionals. Anyone with an idea and internet access can is one Google search away from discovering online education about how to build a business around a creative skill and voil\u00e0 they are an instant freelancer or at least claim to be one.\nThough online education has empowered people to start their own business, it has also led to more noise in the market. When there\u2019s noise you want to stand out even if it means you will portray yourself as a larger company but today customers more than ever are looking for honesty over perception.\nThe Internet is experiencing a shift, and the shift is leaning towards authenticity meaning that who you are will be exposed. It seems like every week a news story brakes that reveals some hidden secret about a celebrity. Some people are shocked but what is happening is their real character is exposed. They can no longer separate who they are from how they want people to perceive them. The same goes for building a creative business, to be successful you\u2019re going to have to embrace the fact that you have to be completely honest about who you are where you are in your business where you\u2019re trying to be on your level of skill.\nI have a friend named Scott. Scott advertised himself as a web designer but in actuality he not a web designer at all. Whatever Scott had a new client he would find out all of their requirements then go on a site like Freelancer.com or Upwork and hire a web designer to build it. Scott was a middleman.\nThough that tactic worked back in 2010, it is not going to work in 2020.\nTo remain afloat in the sea of other creative professionals, you will have to understand authenticity; this implies you will have to become more transparent.\nMore transparency about your processes.\nMore transparency about your capabilities.\nMore transparency around where you fit in the creative process.\nAuthenticity is equated to your level or honesty, and if a client doesn\u2019t trust you, then they will not work with you.\nSimply put, those creative professionals who are hosting \u201cLIVE\u201d webinars and play a recording instead of hosting a webinar live\u2026this tactic is dying and will soon no longer work.\nThe people who advertise that they are willing to help out as many people are possible, but they don\u2019t respond to comments or answer emails\u2026this tactic is dying and will soon no longer work\nThe people who mention they are experts but have no work, portfolio or evidence to back it up\u2026this tactic is dying and will soon no longer work.\nBuilding up an email list of thousands of people to sell to but you\u2019re not willing to get to know them\u2026this tactic is dying and will soon no longer work.\nUltimately if you want to build a successful business in 2018 authenticity in your actions and business is paramount. Don\u2019t portray yourself as some large company when authentic human interaction is the main reason why people transition into clients. Genuineness will get you further than trying to keep up with a colossal embellishment.\nA great example of this is Jarrod Drysdale. On this homepage, he is straightforward about his position: fellow is the studio of Jarrod Drysdale, independent designer.\nHis brief biography focuses on the strength of his work, and he doesn\u2019t lean on the perception that he is a full-scale agency. Jarrod\u2019s about page goes on to say:\nJarrod has been a professional designer since 2004, working independently since 2010. He is also an author, developer, marketer, researcher, and product maker.\nJarrod has completed work for clients including Framer, Personal Capital, Bloomberg, Scottrade, Intuit, State Farm, McDonald\u2019s, Kraft Foods, and New Line Cinema.\nAuthenticity over Automation\nWe are moving toward the age of machine learning. One day we will get to the point where we can wake up in the morning tell our digital assistance what we need and then everything is taken care of through automation. Though this is helpful for some tasks when it comes to building authentic relationships we have it backward.\nAutomation is used to make repetitive or monotonous tasks easier so that we can have more time to focus on what\u2019s important. However what tends to happen to us is we use automation to make things easier and talk to people less. When it comes to building a relationship, no automation will replace a genuine, authentic conversation. We try to automate everything even our conversations. We\u2019ve taken automation a step further, and instead of text messages, we send emojis because we don\u2019t have to type as much.\nIt\u2019s one thing to use automation to make things easier. However, it\u2019s another thing to use automation to feint human interaction when building relationships.\nThe primary differentiator for success is you. Your unique skills, perspective, and worldview is not a thing easily copied. However, before you can be authentic, the first thing you have to do is learn how to communicate what value you can bring to someone else and how to do so in an honest way.\nAuthenticity Starts Now\nThis starts with learning to tell your story. How did you get to where you are today and steps did you take along the way? How does your unique experience position you in a way to help others? When working clients what are some obstacles you overcome? What are some results your work has produced that you can point to as a case study? Start with honestly answering these questions, and your authenticity will begin to help shape you as a legitimate authority.\n060: Always Be Authentic2018-05-192018-09-23https://nathanallotey.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/green-na-logo-1.pngNathan Allotey (Official Site)https://nathanallotey.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/episode60-cover.png200px200px",

        "title": "FP9 needs to improve on its predecessors! | FEBS Network",
        "raw_content": "Better funded and better organised research programmes are an urgent priority for the health of us all.\nThe Alliance for Biomedical Research in Europe (BioMed Alliance) recently published a position paper highlighting some important issues that should be addressed within the next FP9 framework programme, some of which I would like to discuss in this perspective. Despite the enormous personal and economic benefits that improved health can bring, previous Framework Programmes have failed to allocate generous resources to research in this field. Only 10.5% of Horizon 2020\u2019s initial budget of \u20ac80 billion was earmarked for biomedical and health-related research, amounting to an investment of approximately \u20ac2-3 per EU resident per annum. Its predecessors did not perform much better either, with less than 15% of their budgets dedicated to medical research[1].\nWe believe that the added value and the potential of EU funding are most evident in health research, which is often too complex to be effectively supported or managed at the national level. But funding of biomedical research at European level does not reflect the high return on investment associated with it, and needs to be substantially increased before it can do so.\nYet the benefits of health research are easy to see already. Biomedical research has advanced diagnostics, therapeutics and technology, and had a major impact on life expectancy and healthy life years. A healthy population in itself generates, besides a healthier life for each individual, an important economic benefit. Innovation gives rise to new companies and employment, and increases in public expenditure on biomedical and health research boost academic as well as private sector research and development. Last, but not least, over 50% of Europe\u2019s cumulative research output, measured by the number of journal papers and citations, can be traced back to publicly funded biomedical and clinical research[2].\nAt BioMed Alliance we believe that basic, clinical and translation research are closely intertwined, and that increased funding for all three areas is crucial in order for European health research to achieve its full potential. A strong commitment to basic research under FP9 is essential. This ultimate source of innovation must be better supported by public funds if it is to continue to produce new ideas. Despite its significant long-term potential, there is little incentive for the private sector to invest in blue sky research \u2013 the economic gains are just not seen quickly enough.\nIn the clinical field, high-quality, industry-independent academic research is key to the pursuit of outcomes that provide added short-term value for patients. EU funding is particularly needed for clinical research that is unlikely to get support from industry: research that is patient- and disease-centred rather than drug-oriented, with emphasis on treatments such as surgery and radiotherapy, or focusing on areas that tend to be neglected, such as preventive medicine and rare diseases.\nThe importance of translational research is insufficiently supported by the fragmented funding structure of the Horizon 2020 programme. There is a need for continued funding of multidisciplinary collaborations in translational research \u2013 whether initiated bottom-up or top-down \u2013 to foster knowledge transfer, entrepreneurship and partnerships between academia and industry. As the prime source for funding of successful collaborative multidisciplinary translational research[3], EU support is indispensable. Support for such research helps to ensure that European patients and society at large gain maximum benefit from the latest innovations. Considering the increasingly interactive, multidisciplinary and circular nature of 21st century science, there is an urgent need for a better integration of complex processes, from basic research to clinical practice and back again. This also requires an investment in special training programmes for the next generation of young researchers. We, at a European level, also have to educate research-oriented clinicians and clinically oriented researchers under FP9.\nAll of this requires a long-term vision and strategic approach, which is currently less than optimal. While there is plenty of successful research across Europe, it is often scattered and operates in silos. The Research Framework Programmes have been a step in the right direction, but more is needed in the field of strategic planning in order to strengthen biomedical and clinical research.\nWe believe that the creation of a European Council for Health Research, mandated to develop and fund a science-led vision and long-term strategy for health research, would go a long way to filling this gap. Such a Council would involve, in addition to scientists, citizens, patients and health professionals. A bottom-up scientific council composed of leading biomedical scientists would develop a long-term strategy for biomedical research and innovation, in close interaction with policy makers and other relevant sectors of research and industry.\nThe European Council for Health Research would be able to foster research while, at the same time, creating societal benefits and a long-term positive economic impact. Its creation would demonstrate commitment to biomedical research in Europe and promote the EU as a global hub for health research innovation, attracting today\u2019s top researchers as well as the next generation of research talents.\nWe strongly believe that it\u2019s not Utopian to have faith in the idea that Europeans can have an even further improved quality of life, resulting from basic, clinical and translational research, that can contribute to personal, national, and international prosperity, and that we don\u2019t have to wait for decades before we see this happening. It\u2019s simply a question of better funding, better planning, and better co-ordination.\nWilfried Ellmeier, PhD, Professor of Immunobiology, Medical University of Vienna, Treasurer and member of the BioMed Alliance Board of Directors.\nLoredana Simulescu, BioMed Alliance Policy Officer\nYou can find more information here https://www.biomedeurope.org/ and @Biomedalliance\n[1] Bouillon et al. 2015.

Hutchison already has some Owl John shows under his belt, and he\u2019s even got an entire self-titled album ready for release: It will find its way to digital and actual shelves on August 5. The album was recorded quickly with Andy Monaghan of Frightened Rabbit and Simon Liddell of Olympic Swimmers, and mostly tracked on the Isle Of Mull in Scotland. The quick-and-dirty writing-and-recording approach hearkens back to Frightened Rabbit\u2019s earliest work, which shouldn\u2019t be a surprise, since that band basically sprouted from Hutchison\u2019s solo recordings. Below, you\u2019ll find an exclusive stream of the song \u201cRed Hand,\u201d a somber rocker with an energetic pulse. Below that, the full track list for Owl John.\n9.

That might sound like buzzy sales talk, but seriously, watch the video. It\u2019s crazy. The four minutes leading up to the actual Bowie cover are especially intense on a good pair of headphones.\nThere\u2019s more to come, too. The clip was actually shot on 360-degree cameras and using 360-degree microphones, and a widget should be added to the Lincoln site in the near future to let users play around with directionality of both sound and vision\u2014just like Bowie intended, or something.",

        "raw_content": "Small family car with big improvements\nWith the all-new Suzuki Ertiga launched recently, the carmaker wasted no time in introducing the vehicle to the media with an out of town drive to Tagaytay last week.\nThe second-generation Ertiga takes the reigns from its predecessor, which was launched five years ago. Despite being a new player in the segment, the earlier Ertiga already captured the hearts of many families.\nWith this new iteration, it hopes to improve upon that by winning over buyers from established competitors. That won\u2019t be too difficult with a new look that already steals hearts.\nThe new Ertiga features a brand new fa\u00e7ade, doing away with the upswept lights and modest grill of its predecessor with a more masculine look. It now features broader headlights, a larger grill, and massive side intakes. These help give it a more SUV-like look as opposed to its predecessor. Over on the side, the car features an upswept character line and a notch on the rearmost pillar to give the roof a floating look. Behind, it employs L-shaped LED tail lamps that stretch across the tailgate. The rear\u2018s design seems somewhat inspired by a popular German brand.\nInside is a much more upscale interior to match its new look. The Ertiga retains the beige interior tone, but mixes it up with the use of wood trim and brown to create a warmer interior. The driver gets two large dial and a tall multi-info display.\nOver in the center is the massive 10-inch entertainment system (GLX only) with text display large enough for passengers in the third row to read. It comes with plenty of features like navigation, smartphone Mirrorlink, Bluetooth, USB, Aux, and AM/FM radio. GL models still get a relatively large eight-iunch display.\nAir con vents are cleverly disguised by the dashboard\u2019s design. You can also make use of the cold air for your drinks with built-in vents in the front cupholders.\nGetting into the car is easy with very wide opening doors, a second row with ample legroom, and a folding and sliding bench to get to the third row seats. The greatest improvement is to the third row that has increased legroom. Cargo capacity has also been addressed (even with the third row up) to now fit 199 liters, thanks to a collapsible cargo floor.\nThe increase in cargo capacity is complemented by improvements to the engine too. What was once a 1.4-liter engine in the predecessor is now a 1.5-liter in the new model. It\u2019s brought to life with a new engine start button, and now produces 103 Ps of power and 138 Nm of torque. It\u2019s paired to a four-speed automatic, which may not sound very impressive, but based on our drive, easily returns 10 km/L in the city and up to 16 km/L in the highway.\nThe Ertiga will also tick all the boxes when it comes to safety, being fitted with anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist, dual front airbags, ISOFIX anchors for child seats, side impact door beams and an immobilizer. The top-of-the-line GLX features extras like a reverse camera and rear parking sensors.\nDuring our drive up to Tagaytay highlands, the Ertiga took on the uphill segments (with overdrive off), and muted much of the roads bumps. This was done with a load of three passengers and their luggage. The more restless drivers seemed to be delighted by the better handling and less body roll, too. In fact, it was quite enjoyable thanks to the quieter interior.\nWith a price range starting from a budget-friendly P728,000 for the GL all the way to a fully-equipped P978,000 GLX A/T, the new Ertiga is definitely worth considering. As for the competition, they should be very nervous.\nTags: Ertiga, Suzuki",

This led public health inspectors to close the school.\n\u201cThe Ministry of Education subsequently approved funding for the Education Facilities Company Ltd to tender the project for a contractor to reconstruct the soakaway. The contractor also pumped out and cleaned the septic tank and installed new sewer lines and did other minor repairs.\u201d\nPrincipal Ann Gomes-Phillips said the contractor had sanitised the compound on Friday last and staff from the County Medical Officer of Health visited and said it was safe for students and staff to return to the school.\nMeanwhile, approval has been granted for major repairs at the Carapichaima East Secondary School as work was expected to have begun on March 8 to demolish and replace the roof and ceiling of the assembly hall and Technical Block O.\n\u201cThe repairs will address a pigeon infestation problem which resulted in the closure of the school. School supervision, in collaboration with the school administration, has put in place temporary arrangements for students of Forms 5 and 6 who are preparing for examinations. They are also examining alternative, temporary accommodation for other students, while the school is being repaired,\u201d the ministry said.\nReply to \"Repairs completed at St Benedict\u2019s College\"",

The aim of the internship is to assist with the implementation of the Gulbenkian Foundation\u2019s Translation Series project, which will make seminal texts in the humanities and the social sciences available in Armenian. (Click here to view the list of texts scheduled to be translated in the first phase of the project).\nThe internship is offered to a current student of the Certificate in Translation Program for a period of one year including the summer. It is an exceptional opportunity for students to apply themselves in the field of translation and publishing in Armenia, with an emphasis on academic rigor and practical experience.\nThe Gulbenkian Translation Series intern will coordinate the meetings of the advisory committee, communicate and follow-up with the selected translators, curate a digital platform that will serve the creation of new glossaries, work with publishers and assist with the publication and dissemination of the published texts in Armenia. The student nominated for the 2017-18 internship is Margo Gevorgyan.\nInternship advisor and lecturer Shushan Avagyan emphasized that \u201cThe internship builds on the foundation, knowledge, and skills students have acquired from the courses offered in the Certificate in Translation Program, and it will give them unique experience and invaluable professional training. Our program is the ideal place for such an initiative and we are incredibly excited about our collaboration with the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.\u201d\nJun 22khuchComments Disabled\n\u2190 Promoting Quality in Transnational Education\n\u2192 Elizabeth Agbabian Awarded Movses Khorenatsi Medal",

The tour is available in English and Spanish.\n\"A nuclear plant doesn\u2019t have many tours open to the public for safety and security reasons,\" said Pete Dietrich, senior vice president and chief nuclear officer. \"But with this virtual tour, our community members, our customers and anyone around the world can come inside the plant and understand what the facility does and how it works.\"\nThe virtual tour is part of ongoing efforts to inform and educate the public on the plant overall and specifically on the technical repair, corrective actions and proposal to safely restart and operate Unit 2. Engineers and community liaisons are also conducting open houses in several communities in the region and are available to speak to groups upon request.\nSan Onofre is the largest source of baseload generation and voltage support in the region and is a critical asset in meeting California\u2019s clean energy needs.\nBoth units of the plant are currently safely shut down. Unit 2 was taken out of service Jan. 9 for a planned outage. Unit 3 was safely taken offline Jan. 31 after station operators detected a leak in a steam generator tube. Southern California Edison (SCE) submitted its response to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) Confirmatory Action Letter on Oct. 4, along with its restart plan for Unit 2. The unit will not be restarted until all plans have been approved by the NRC.\nFor updates, please visit www.SONGScommunity.com, or follow us on Twitter at www.twitter.com/SCE_SONGS and on www.facebook.com/SCE.\nThe San Onofre plant is jointly owned by SCE (78.21 percent), San Diego Gas & Electric (20 percent) and the city of Riverside (1.79 percent).",

Unsurprisingly, I feel much happier and energetic, the way that I was expecting to feel in April, I don\u2019t really need hot weather but light and sunshine make a huge difference, I don\u2019t do well in gloom!\nI don\u2019t think that this new, sunnier Nic is entirely due to the weather, though it helps. Some of it because of decisions I\u2019ve been making recently. Re-enforcing bedtimes, making an effort to reach out to friends and do stuff, limiting my computer and screen time, focussing a bit more on looking after myself.\nI know that it\u2019s early days, I only got to the point I realised I was slipping two weeks ago and I know I\u2019ll slip again before I\u2019m done but for the first time in a couple of months, I\u2019m doing things because I want to rather than because I should.\nI\u2019m a huge believer in attitude following action. Over this weekend it happened, the sun came out and because for the last two weeks my actions had been different, my attitude finally flipped around.\nLast January, I wrote that \u201cSometimes you have to do the thing, even if you don\u2019t feel the thing and the feeling will follow. Treat yourself like you matter and eventually, you will feel like you matter. It\u2019s a lesson that I constantly have to re-learn.\u201d\nSix months later, here I am again, accepting that I have to live where I am rather than waiting for a mythical perfect time, when I\u2019ll have the attitude/money/clothes/fitness/figure to do it justice.\nOn Monday, I got out of bed (I wasn\u2019t enthusiastic about it but I can\u2019t wish for impossible things), did my stretching, took my vitamins, did some exercise (getting points for the Super Summer Challenge in the process), I did the same again this morning. I avoided the office sweetie table, I added a little bit more walking to my life by getting off the train a stop earlier than usual. All of those little things are making a difference to my health and my attitude. It\u2019s nice to be here.\nThis entry was posted in How I Live, Thankful and tagged cheering the hell up, how to get out of a slump, Super Summer. Bookmark the permalink.",

        "raw_content": "Title of Article: \"The Pre-purchase Exam vs. The Insurance Exam\"\nIn buying a new horse there are several things to consider relative to the health and soundness of the prospect. A pre-purchase health and soundness examination may be more than you want to spend but what if a problem is detected in the more complete pre-purchase examination. You could easily save yourself lots more money because the vet found degenerative joint disease, (As an example).\nInterestingly enough the purchase price of the horse should NOT be a factor and, in fact, it's none of the vet's business what the price is. That determination as to value and suitability must be made by you and your professional trainer.\nMake sure that the veterinarian you choose, (not the seller's choice), has no close or barn relationship with the seller. Amazing as it may seem, I hear lots of instances where the buyer just accepts the seller's vet as the one to make the pre-purchase examination.\nThe fact that the seller is using their own vet to do \"your\" soundness exam should raise all sorts of red flags:\na. The seller's vet may not be as impartial as should be in supposedly looking out for your best interests.\nb. The ethical dilemma brought on by the seller getting his own vet to do the exam should also be an unacceptable item. The AAEP, (American Association of Equine Practioners), demands the highest ethical standards to which all vets should adhere; again, another red flag. (For instance, our \"barn\" vet will NOT do a pre-purchase exam for anyone out of the barn who's purchasing a horse from our barn for ethical reasons. He does not want even a \"perception\" of unethical behavior).\nIf the horse you're having examined is out of town, it's customary to have the x-rays and preliminary results of the physical sent to your vet's office back home; it just makes sense to have another pair of trained eyes looking at your prospective horse's exam. Plus they are familiar with you and your potential use of the new horse.\nIn some cases, the seller will suggest an insurance exam as a way of saving you some money, explaining to you that the vet can \"look\" at the horse as well as performing the insurance exam.\nOn the face of it, all seems ok except that the insurance exam is not at all rigorous and is NOT a legitimate way of determining if the prospective animal is indeed completely sound. In addition, x-rays are almost never done in an insurance physical except in a \"loss of Use\" policy where x-rays are required.\nI can tell you that in my professional capacity as a trainer, I won't let a horse be sold unless the buyer has a thorough pre-purchase examination performed.\nIf the prospective buyer doesn't want to spend the money, you may have a buyer who will be the first one to sue you for recision, (cancel the whole deal, plus stick you with additional health expenses on the horse).\nOh yes, make sure that any and all veterinary problems are disclosed including the records at you vet's office. The reason is that if those records are not easily made available to the potential buyer and their vet, and something untoward happens after the sale is made, some states look at your \"non-disclosure\", as a fraudulent act.\nAlso, don't be cheap when asking the vet you've hired to examine the prospect. Not having enough x-rays can be a problem down the road since a good set of \"baseline\" radiographs can be a real aid in marketing the animal in the future.\nNow, for the insurance exam: Insurance companies have a right to know if the animal they're insuring is still sound. The vet simply visits the barn and checks the vital signs. The soundness part of the exam should be simply trotting the horse back and forth in front of the vet.\nOrdinarily, no x-rays are taken, (except as mentioned above), but you do get to pay for the exam so try and get other clients of your vet to have their horses done at the same time to limit costs. The vet simply fills out and signs a form supplied by the insurance company and then faxes it back to the agent. It is the owner's responsibility to mail the original document; although most licensed agents can bind coverage over the phone, pending receipt of the original veterinary exam.\nIn short, when buying a new horse just \"bite the bullet\" and spend the dollars to make sure your new horse is completely healthy.\nEven if the vet finds a small problem it may help to get the seller to lower the price, (After consultation with your trainer, of course). Sometimes its ok to make an educated \"gamble\".\nNow the MOST important part of the whole process is to make sure there is a contract made up to protect both yours and the seller's interests. The contract can save lots of time and aggravation later.\nPlease let me know if you have any comments.",

Godfrey pitched seven scoreless innings while giving up just one hit and striking out five Woodchucks.\nThe Saginaw Valley State Cardinal had a no-hitter going into the fifth inning and allowed just three baserunners total on one hit and two walks.\nBattle Creek only scored once off Wisconsin starter Jake Gross in the third inning. Gross walked three straight Bombers to load the bases, and Jordan Swiss picked up an RBI on a fielder\u2019s choice to the shortstop Nick Loftin.\nThe RBI by Swiss ended up being Battle Creek\u2019s only run of the game, and the 1-0 lead held until the bottom of the eighth inning.\nKevin Hahn made his league leading 21st appearance out of the bullpen for the Bombers and quickly retired the first two hitters of the inning. However, a pinch-hit double from Peter Ahn and a two-run home run off the bat of Nick Loftin gave Wisconsin a 2-1 lead.\nHahn had a 1.99 era and had only given up an earned run in four of his first twenty appearances heading into Wednesday. It was just the second time all season he has given up multiple runs in one appearance.\nNeeding a run in the ninth, Jalen Thomas singled, and Riley Tirotta reached on an error to begin the inning. With the tying run on second, Wisconsin All-Star closer, Lennon Gwizdala, then retired three straight Bombers to end the game.\nThe 2-1 victory gave Wisconsin their first win of the season over the Bombers. Battle Creek still leads the season series 5-1.\nThe Bombers travel to Green Bay to take on the Bullfrogs Thursday night. First pitch is set for 8:05 EST.\nCopyright \u00a9 2019 Battle Creek Bombers.

Did you sleep well?\u201d Farah\u2019s mother greeted her after her daughter had woken up.\nFarah looked disgruntled. \u201cYes, I slept well, but how come I have to wake up at ten even on the weekends?\u201d\nHer mother shook her head. \u201cFarah, even ten o\u2019clock is very late. You should try to wake up earlier. Anyhow, when you are ready to come downstairs to breakfast, I\u2019ve fried egg for you.\u201d\nFarah made a face \u201cEgg!\u201d she said, \u201cMother, you know I don\u2019t eat eggs on Friday, I eat pancakes. I don\u2019t even like it fried.\u201d\n\u201cWell, whatever. At least eat it today then I will make pancakes for you tomorrow.\u201d\n\u201cNo! Why did you forget? I don\u2019t like eggs, and you know that.\u201d\n\u201cFarah, don\u2019t insist and throw a tantrum over this! If you don\u2019t eat it, it\u2019ll go to waste, because Hassan and your dad have already eaten their breakfast. You are the last one as it is,\u201d her mother said patiently.\n\u201cWell then, if I can\u2019t have pancakes then I won\u2019t eat anything at all,\u201d Farah said angrily, leaving the room.\nShe went to her father\u2019s room, to try to persuade him in letting them go to the beach, or the mall. \u201cI\u2019m feeling bored,\u201d she said. Her father noted her expression, and he laughed. \u201cHow could you be feeling bored when you\u2019ve just woken up!\u201d\nFarah shook her head. \u201cNo, it\u2019s not that, it\u2019s just that we never go out anywhere! You promised me you would take me to the beach, but some excuse was made, and we didn\u2019t go after all. It\u2019s not fair.\u201d\nHer brother interrupted her. \u201cBesides, Father is ill today, so he can\u2019t tire himself too much in taking you out to the beach.\u201d\n\u201cBut even last time you had to do something for my aunt, and we didn\u2019t go.\u201d Farah fumed.\n\u201cWell, it\u2019s alright, if you want to go, we\u2019ll go next week, if I\u2019m feeling better, I promise. It\u2019s just today that I felt tired from the morning.\u201d Her father said, smiling at his daughter.\n\u201cNext week!\u201d she stormed. \u201cNext week will never come! If we\u2019re going, we\u2019re going today,\u201d she said. Father looked tired. \u201cAlright, dear, if that\u2019s what you want.\u201d\n\u201cHooray!\u201d Farah cheered.\nThe whole family was ready to go when Farah came out of the room. \u201cLook, mother, do I look good?\u201d She asked, and her mother gave a look. \u201cFarah, why are you wearing your best clothes? Wear clothes that won\u2019t get damaged too easily, if you\u2019re going to play in the mud!\u201d\nFarah shook her head. \u201cNo, mother, I wanted to try on this dress, and don\u2019t worry, nothing will happen to it.\u201d Her mother shrugged. \u201cWell, if it gets dirty it will be hard to get off,\u201d she said, and they left for the beach.\nWhen they arrived, Farah ran around, playing with the sand and water. Then, while doing so, she tripped and her dress was covered in dirty mud. She made a huge fuss, saying \u201cOh, look, look, my dress, it\u2019s all ruined!\u201d\nHer mother looked at it and sighed. \u201cDidn\u2019t I tell you to wear other clothes? But you don\u2019t listen. Anyway, be quiet now and we\u2019ll see what we can do about it later. Eat these sandwiches I made for the picnic, you must be hungry.\u201d\nBut Farah cried \u201cLook, that man is selling Gobstoppers! Mother let me go and buy some, I love these Gobstoppers.\u201d Mother frowned. \u201cBut, Farah, you know when you eat these kinds of sweets from stalls, you get a stomach-ache, and you don\u2019t want that, do you? I also brought cookies, if you want to eat them.\u201d But Farah\u2019s eyes lingered on the man\u2019s sweet-selling cart. So her mother gave her money, and she bought a whole packet of Gobstoppers for herself.\n\u201cCome on, Farah, let\u2019s go home, it\u2019s getting late, and your father needs some rest now.\u201d\nFarah looked reluctant at this call. \u201cLet\u2019s just stay here for twenty more minutes she said, and they did. It was only when Farah began to feel a severe stomach-ache, did they decide to go home. When they got home, her father had a high fever, and her stomach was hurting so much she had to have medicine, then she slept.\nWhen she woke up, she saw her brother standing beside her bed. \u201cToday was a bad day,\u201d said Farah. \u201cNo, Farah, it wasn\u2019t. Days aren\u2019t good or bad, it\u2019s us who make them that way. See, if you had listened to mama, none of this would have happened. But you didn\u2019t, and this is the result.\u201d\nFarah was quiet. She understood what her brother said, and she vowed silently to herself to always obey her parents because they always know better.",

        "title": "3 Reasons to Retire As Early As You Can",
        "raw_content": "Would you love to retire early? So many people have that goal, and for a variety of reasons. For some, it's a matter of escaping a tough work schedule and the pressures that come with it. For others, it's an opportunity to spend quality time with family and pursue hobbies.\nMany folks, however, have a hard time with the notion of retiring early, whether it be from a place of financial insecurity or guilt. But if early retirement appeals to you on any level, here are three reasons to go for it.\n1. You can afford it\nMany folks slack in the retirement savings department all their lives. Case in point: The average American aged 50 to 55 has $124,831 socked away for the future, which isn't a whole lot at that stage of life. When we apply a 4% annual withdrawal rate to that balance, which is what countless financial experts recommend, that results in just under $5,000 of income per year. Of course, there's also Social Security to factor in, but the point is that many older Americans are woefully unprepared for retirement from a savings perspective. If you're not one of them, however, then there's no reason you shouldn't feel comfortable retiring ahead of your peers.\nSenior couple embracing on the beach\nLet's imagine that instead of being in your early to mid-50s with roughly $125,000, you're sitting on $2 million instead. Now you don't want to start withdrawing from your nest egg at a rate of 4% per year if you're retiring in your 50s, because that formula is designed to ensure that your savings don't run out for 30 years, and chances are, you'll live into your 90s and will therefore need them to last longer than that. But even if we slash that withdrawal rate in half to 2%, you're still looking at $40,000 per year in retirement income from your nest egg alone. And that, coupled with Social Security and other income sources, might allow you to live a very comfortable lifestyle.\n2. You can still earn money\nMany people view retirement as a period where people stop working. But actually, retirement is the ideal period to start a business or turn a favorite hobby into a money-making opportunity. If you're worried that you can't afford to retire because your nest egg isn't all that robust, but want the ability to live on your own terms and control your own schedule, then it certainly pays to quit your job and do something else to make a living instead. And remember, the more fulfilling you find your work, the more motivated you'll be to keep at it.\n3. It'll be good for your health\nThere are studies out there that show that working longer can lead to a longer life. Not only does going into an office offer mental and physical benefits, but the social aspect alone can make plugging away for longer a worthwhile option to consider.\nOn the other hand, the wrong job can easily put you in a situation where your work is harming your health. Excessive stress has been unequivocally linked to high blood pressure and heart disease, while being too sedentary (which tends to be the case for office workers chained to their desks for hours on end) can cause weight gain and other medical issues. Therefore, if you believe that your health will improve once you stop working, that's reason enough to retire sooner rather than later. Or, to put it another way, the longer you stay at a job that's harmful to your health, the more you risk passing away at an early age and missing out on retirement altogether.\nEarly retirement isn't for everyone, and for some folks, such as those without savings, it's a tough goal to achieve. But if you have the power to make early retirement work for you, it certainly pays to leave the workforce prematurely and enjoy the lifestyle you've dreamed about for ages.",

        "raw_content": "Astorino Criticizes Cuomo\u2019s Education Policies\nBy Kelly Weill \u2022 02/05/14 4:10pm\nWestchester Executive Rob Astorino (Photo: RobAstorino.com)\nOne of Gov. Andrew Cuomo\u2019s likely Republican challengers started bashing the incumbent\u2019s education agenda today, providing yet another indication his unannounced campaign is taking form.\nWhile Mayor Bill de Blasio is pushing Mr. Cuomo to allowed the city to hike taxes on the wealthy to fund universal pre-K, the likely challenger, Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, went on the air Wednesday morning to condemn Mr. Cuomo\u2019s education plan altogether.\nIn an appearance on WCNY\u2019s The Capitol Pressroom, Mr. Astorino criticized Mr. Cuomo\u2019s plans for expanded pre-K and continued support for Common Core standards, which he claimed is \u201ccompletely underfunded.\u201d\n\u201cIt is impossible to do and it would devastate schools,\u201d he said of the pre-K push.\nThe Westchester Republican\u2019s attack on the centerpiece of Mr. Cuomo\u2019s education agenda comes at a particularly critical hour for the governor. Mr. Cuomo is currently in a standoff with the state legislature over the implementation of Common Core in the state\u2019s schools. State lawmakers are pushing to delay the plan\u2019s execution but Mr. Cuomo, torn between abandoning his previous goals and angering parents and the teachers\u2019 unions, has yet to rule on the moratorium.\nMr. Cuomo is also locked in a debate with Mr. de Blasio on whether the city\u2019s pre-K program should be funded through taxes on the wealthy of the state simply providing an alternative funding stream.\nMr. Astorino, meanwhile, advocated not just for a moratorium, but for a total overhaul of the program. \u201cThe Common Core has been a disaster and will be a disaster and we need a complete reboot,\u201d he said, citing claims that the new curriculum forces teachers to sped all their time focused on state test material. \u201cYou can\u2019t teach to a test when you haven\u2019t seen the material or you\u2019re not familiar with the material.\u201d\nAs for the much-discussed pre-K expansion, Mr. Astorino said he believes any new money should be directed back into the state\u2019s elementary schools instead. \u201cWhy are we doing pre-K when we don\u2019t even have K yet?\u201d he asked, arguing that some New York school districts lack kindergarten entirely or only require students to attend half-day.\nMr. Astorino, who is currently mulling a run for governor, also gave signs today that the campaign is already underway. \u201cAs governor I would work with whoever the leaders are,\u201d Mr. Astorino said at one point, sounding very much the candidate.\nReached for comment, Mr. Cuomo\u2019s office defended his agenda.\n\u201cThe Governor believes that we need to set real standards for our students and have a meaningful teacher evaluation system, and continues to support the Common Core agenda,\u201d Mr. Cuomo\u2019s Communications Director Melissa DeRosa said in a statement.\nFiled Under: Politics, Bill de Blasio, Bill de Blasio, Andrew Cuomo, Rob Astorino, pre-k, common core, preschool",

Addendum: I realize this post probably comes as flippant and ignoring the greater issues of being non-white and Japanese or multiracial and Japanese in Japan, especially given that time has passed since I originally wrote it and more people are now discussing this topic in relation to Ariana Miyamoto, Miss Japan 2015. In addition to her story, I\u2019d like to also share some more recent articles on this: this article on \u201cpassing\u201d and multiracial erasure in the US, and this one on the film Hafu: Mixed Race in Japan. And to note that, while there are negative stereotypes about white and white-appearing people, that white-appearing people often are associating with \u201cbenevolent\u201d stereotypes, which, while problematic, are not nearly as damaging and dangerous as the negative stereotypes about Black people and people of Korean, Filipino, and Chinese descent (regardless of nationality) are.\nIncluding stereotypes like this, from Toshiba\u2019s line of bread makers. Because white folks love bread, have huge noses, and speak in katakana!

That still doesn\u2019t make it okay in Japan\u2013it means we need to think more seriously about how subtle and insidious racism can be.\nI\u2019d love to see more stories, especially from non-white minorities in Japan, who are by far more marginalized. Also, don\u2019t read the comments.\nVia Hikosaemon.\nPosted in Culture | Tagged bilingual, kanadajin3, nationality, race, racism, raised in Japan, the Other, video, white Japanese | 15 Comments\n\u201cAlso, don\u2019t read the comments.\u201d\nAlmost universally applicable life advice, that.\nHaha, well, at least comments on this blog are moderated?\non 2013/09/26 at 12:58 pm | Reply Zeeky\nWait, I thought Japan prohibited immigration except for those on army bases. Are they actually japanese citizens or do they believe they\u2019re Japanese because they were raised there? Since I see the author wasn\u2019t born nor raised there, but still considers themselves japanese?\nJapan does not have a ban on immigration. In addition to working and spouse visas, Japan has a permanent residence system for non-citizens, typically long-term residents and spouses of citizens, but permanent residents are not full citizens, and the children of permanent residents are not citizens. Applying for citizenship is possible, but even if you gain citizenship, the concept of being a Japanese citizen is so tied to the concept of ethnicity and race that if you are perceived as looking foreign, you may be treated as such.\nIn the video, the interviewees explain their backgrounds. Most were raised entirely in Japan and are white. Accordingly to ideas of race and nationality in Japan, even a person who is born in Japan and lives their whole life in Japan cannot be truly Japanese if they are not ethnically Japanese. (Compare to the relative disassociation of race and nationality in the US, Canada, and Australia\u2013though there are still racists.) A good example is of the Japanese people of Korean descent (\u201czainichi\u201d) who have lived for 3-4 generations in Japan but are still permanent residents, not citizens.\non 2013/09/26 at 7:58 pm | Reply dashkeepingtabs\nReblogged this on dashkeepingtabs.\n\u201cit means we need to think more seriously about how subtle and insidious racism can be.\u201d \u2014 I have yet to live anywhere less likely to begin this conversation.\nAt least in the US, we have the melting pot metaphor in school; people get mad if you call them racist or sexist because they know it\u2019s bad but continue to be racist and sexist. In Japan, however, reactions seem more like, \u201cThat\u2019s not racist!\u201d because racism is either something Americans do (welp) or because the comment or action wasn\u2019t lynching Koreans in 1923.

While I know that in the U.S. the whole multiculturalism thing didn\u2019t happen without struggle, I didn\u2019t feel like I was a part of anything in Japan to justify dealing with the stress of being one of the foreigners\u2013for lack of a better word\u2013integrating it.

Today, Lightning has finally returned. From today onwards, this king decrees: \u201cThe rule that prohibits flying has been abolished!\u201d\nThe scene was quite lively as countless demons rejoiced! Even some demonic cultivators at the Gold Core stage who had never flown before rose up into the air. They started dancing in the air while mumbling, \u201cThis feeling of flying\u2026 so awesome!\u201d\nThe city crowd was bustling with activity and joy while the castle inhabitants broke their past disciplined silence and celebrated as well.

Although Lei Yu\u2019s heart was missing Ai Er, he was still rather happy at this moment. He couldn\u2019t ruin the crowd\u2019s mood with his own personal issues.\nThe banquet lasted throughout the night.

Her heart had been long melted by this man in front of her. Even though it\u2019s been over a thousand years, she still couldn\u2019t forget the look Lei Yu gave her while she was in his embrace. That look was the flames that had melted her cold heart.\n\u201cDid you forget what to call me?\u201d Telephassa asked with a pout. The expression she had would most likely cause any man to melt on the spot, but she would only show that in front of Lei Yu.\n\u201cT\u2026 Telephassa.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s much better. Today is our reunion so does that mean we can mate now?\u201d After saying that, Telephassa felt her face turn red but she really wanted to hear Lei Yu\u2019s decision.\nLei Yu was speechless; how could she still be so explicit after a thousand years?\n\u201cI\u2019m sorry Telephassa. You should know that I\u2019m already a person with a girlfriend.\u201d Lei Yu knew that saying these words would most likely sadden her, but this was nevertheless a fact.\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter. I\u2019ve said before that you may have unlimited amount of sex slaves and I wouldn\u2019t care.\u201d Said Telephassa without scruples.\n\u201cBut she\u2019s my lover, not some sex slave!\u201d Lei Yu\u2019s voice sounded a bit emotional causing Telephassa to be surprised. \u201cSorry, I\u2026\u201d\n\u201cI know her name is called Ai Er right? She\u2019s someone that you were together with before meeting me.\u201d\nLei Yu nodded, \u201cRight. After all, she is my first love. Although it\u2019s not that explosive heart-stirring kind or one that had weathered the storms of life, it\u2019s because of the peacefulness that made me understand her more. I cannot lose her. In my heart, she will always be in the first place.\u201d\nTelephassa\u2019s body trembled from a sob; it was tears that came straight from the heart. \u201cThen what about me? What am I considered in your heart? A thousand years, I\u2019ve waited for you for over a thousand years! I\u2019ve been missing and longing for you throughout these past a thousand years! In order for you not to despise me, I worked hard in cultivating in order to retain my youthful looks. Everything was all for you!\u201d After saying that, Telephassa couldn\u2019t talk anymore from sobbing too hard.\n\u201cIt was fine if I never got to see you for the rest of my life, but now that I\u2019ve seen you, I too don\u2019t want to lose you! I know that there\u2019s no end to cultivation and our lives will continue to be extended indefinitely. That\u2019s why I will no longer care about your age. But please give me some time, two years! In two years, I will tell Ai Er everything about us because I don\u2019t want to hide anything from her.\u201d\n\u201cDoes that mean I am also very important in your heart?\u201d Telephassa\u2019s eyes widened as she hoped to hear the answer she wanted. She wasn\u2019t let down when Lei Yu silently nodded.\nA smile broke through Telephassa\u2019s tears as she wrapped her arms around Lei Yu\u2019s neck. Her soft lips gently affixed themselves to Lei Yu\u2019s cheek but she didn\u2019t further cross that line. Lei Yu\u2019s words were clear \u2013 in two years time he will talk to Ai Er. If Ai Er didn\u2019t mind, that\u2019s when she and Lei Yu can truly be together. She had waited for a thousand years already so what\u2019s another two?\nSince this is what Lei Yu said, that clearly meant he was unwilling to forsake this goddess that was infatuated with him. It would be great with Ai Er agreed, but if she didn\u2019t, even if he had to hurt her, Lei Yu would have to find the best method to solve this. Ultimately, he didn\u2019t want to cause any pain to his true gal.\nThe next day. Because Lei Yu didn\u2019t want to delay his training, Minotaur Linos led him to the so called mysterious Devil King\u2019s castle.\nThe Devil King\u2019s castle wasn\u2019t that far from the city, even a slow walker would only take two hours to reach it. Even though it was close by, without the Demon King\u2019s permission, no one was allowed to take a single step inside. This was a very mysterious place that contained a lot of pure energy, which made it the perfect place for cultivating.\nThe so called Devil King\u2019s castle was established by a devil\u2019s cultivator that had dominated the Southern Wild Lands in the past. According to the bull-head, that person reached the Mahayana stage as well, but no one knew whether that person continued to make further breakthroughs or died.\nIt was also around the time when the Devil King disappeared, the Immortal World fell in chaos all because of wanting to occupy this precious territory. Not to mention this precious cultivating area, just the Southern Wild Lands itself would make many people salivate. This was the southernmost tip that was easy to defend and hard to attack. With or without the protection of barriers or formation arrays, this place wasn\u2019t easy to break past. That\u2019s why it was such a sought-after place.\nWhat made others red with envy was the Devil King\u2019s old nest. Buried in the depths of the ancient castle were countless amounts of treasures. One should know for a super expert at Mahayana stage, how could their treasures be ordinary?\nThis place was surrounded by barren lands where one could only see a range of uneven sand dunes. Strong winds would blow by kicking up layers of sand that made Lei Yu unconsciously close his eyes.\n\u201cIt\u2019s here.\u201d The bull-head pointed at the front where a slightly higher sand dune was.\nLei Yu looked carefully but couldn\u2019t find anything different. He could only feel the originally hot dessert would have a chilly aura occasionally burst through the sand beneath his feet.\nOne could see Minotaur Linos lightly clap his hands together, \u201cOpen the door!\u201d\nThe sand dune suddenly collapsed like quicksand before the gradual emergence of a cave.\nThe bull-head was the first to jump in. Right after that, Lei Yu followed him without hesitation. The cave entrance didn\u2019t seem that high because Lei Yu was only in the air for a few seconds before he landed on the ground.\n\u201cIncredible! This is too incredible!\u201d Lei Yu stared around with wide eyes. This place had a luxurious building that was no less than the size of the castle back in the city.\nEven though it was buried in the desert, this place wasn\u2019t the gloomy darkness as Lei Yu had imagined. Only carefully scrutinizing the place did he find out where the light was coming from. The walls of this place were constructed with a special material, one that was transparent-like with the role of light reflection. Not only that, the material itself emitted a faint light. Lighting was absolutely not an issue here. And because there was so much of this special material, this place was almost no different to being outside during daytime.",

Better yet, it\u2019s going to be this Sunday on G4. They\u2019re going to play the original 1987 Spaceballs movie at 3pm ET, then follow that up with the premier episode.\nViral Video from BounceYourSpaceBalls.com\nREMOVED DUE TO ANNOYING AUTO-PLAY (click the link above)\nChelsea had Daphne Zuniga, Princess Vespa, on talking about the new series and her related voice-over work. No real breaking news except for the premier announcement. Reunited with Zuniga is Joan Rivers, reprising her role as Dot Matrix, the ever vigilant virginity monitor. Mel Brooks in addition to producing and co-writing the first 13 episodes will return as President Skroob and our favorite green mershendizer under 3 feet tall, Yogurt.\nOfficial G4 Trailer\nThis series has been in production since 2005. It first debuted at San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) in 2007. The original US broadcast premier scheduled for the Fall 2007 was never aired and it seemed to slip into obscurity. That was until June of this year when Canada\u2019s Super Channel starting airing episodes. Since several clips have made it YouTube, but no full episodes that I have been able to find.\nThe first video is from the viral site BounceYourSpaceballs.com. Very much obsessed with the fairer sex, more specifically their \u201cSpaceballs\u201d, this site offers a memory/mammary-style game. There are also bios for some of the female characters and the standard wallpaper, screensaver and icons. The second video is from G4\u2019s official page. Unfortunately they do not have much else on their site in regard to the show.\nThe original movie is probably Mrs. McFavorite\u2019s and my favorite parody movie of all time. I can\u2019t wait to see if Mel Brook\u2019s genius has held up over the years.\nMay the Schwartz be with you\u2026Slick",

        "raw_content": "Tragic Dawn of Overseas Imperialism\nby Maj. Danny Sjursen Posted on December 07, 2018 November 25, 2018\n\u201cThe Charge of the Rough Riders\u201d by Frederic Remington (1898) depicts a scene from the Spanish-American War, showing future President Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry advancing over the bodies of Spaniards in Cuba.\nEmpire. It is a word that most Americans loathe. After all, the United States was born through its rebellion against the great (British) empire of the day. American politicians, policymakers and the public alike have long preferred to imagine the U.S. as, rather, a beacon of freedom in the world, bringing light to those in the darkness of despotism. Europeans, not Americans, it is thought, had empires. Some version of this myth has pervaded the republic from its earliest colonial origins, and nothing could be further from the truth.\nAccording to the old historical narrative, the U.S. has always been a democratic republic and only briefly dabbled (from 1898 to 1904) with outright imperialism. And, indeed, even in that era\u2014in which the U.S. seized Puerto Rico, Guam, Hawaii and the Philippines\u2014the U.S. saw itself as \u201cliberating\u201d the locals from Spanish despotism. This wasn\u2019t real imperialism but rather, to use a term from the day, \u201cbenevolent assimilation.\u201d Oh, what a gloriously American euphemism!\nThe truth, of course, is far more discomfiting. The U.S. was an empire before it had even gained its own independence. From the moment that Englishmen landed at Jamestown and Plymouth Rock, theirs was an imperial experiment. Native tribes were conquered and displaced westward, year in and year out, until there were no sovereign Indians left to fight. In 1848, the U.S. Army conquered northern Mexico and rechristened it the American Southwest. Yes, the U.S. was always an empire, what Thomas Jefferson self-consciously called an \u201cEmpire of Liberty.\u201d Only the American Empire looked different from the British and Western European variety. Until 1898, the U.S. lacked the overseas possessions and expansive naval power that have come to define our contemporary image of empire. That was the British, French and Spanish model. No, the U.S. was a great land empire most similar (ironically) to that of Russia, but an empire nonetheless.\nStill, there is something profound about 1898 and the years that followed. For it was in this era that the American people\u2014and their leaders\u2014became sick with the disease of overseas imperialism. With no Indians left to fight and no Mexican lands worth conquering, Americans looked abroad for new monsters to destroy and new lands to occupy. Britain and France were far too powerful and were not to be trifled with; but Spain, the deteriorating Spanish Empire in the Caribbean and Pacific, proved a tempting target. And so it was, through a brief\u2014\u201csplendid,\u201d as it was described\u2014little war with Spain, that the United States would annex foreign territories and join the European race for colonies.\n1898 is central to our understanding of the United States\u2019 contemporary role in the world, for it was at that moment that the peculiar exceptional millenarianism of American idealism merged with the Western mission of \u201ccivilization.\u201d The result was a more overt, distant and expansive version of American Empire. And, though the U.S. no longer officially \u201cannexes\u201d foreign territories, its neo-imperial foreign policy is alive and well, with U.S. military forces ensconced in some 800 bases in more than 80 countries\u2014numbers that by far exceed those of other nations. Furthermore, the remnants of America\u2019s first overseas conquests are with us today, as the people of Puerto Rico, Guam and Samoa are still only partial Americans\u2014citizens, yes, but citizens without congressional representation or a vote in presidential elections. How ironic, indeed, that a nation founded in opposition to \u201ctaxation without representation\u201d should, for more than 100 years now, hold so many of its people in a situation remarkably similar to that of the American colonists before the Revolutionary War.\nIn retrospect, then, 1898 represents both continuity with America\u2019s imperial past and a bridge to its contemporary neo-imperial future. This era is key because it stands as a moment of no return: a pivot point at which the United States became a global empire. One can hardly understand contemporary interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan without a clear account of 1898 and what followed. The Spanish-American War and the occupation of the Philippines are two of America\u2019s fundamental sins, and their consequences resonate in our ever uncertain present.\nThe Closing of the Frontier (1890)\nIn 1890, the distinguished American historian Frederick Jackson Turner combed the latest U.S. census and declared, in a widely read speech, that the American \u201cfrontier\u201d was officially \u201cclosed.\u201d He meant, of course, that there were no longer any uncharted Western lands to explore or Indian tribes to fight. The West was conquered and \u201ccivilized,\u201d once and for all. According to Turner, westward expansion had defined American history and American values. \u201cCivilizing\u201d the West, through hardy individualism and strife, had altered and established the American soul. In his telling, which was very influential in its day, the \u201closs\u201d of the frontier wasn\u2019t necessarily a good thing; in fact, it had the potential to \u201csoften\u201d Americans and rot the foundation of the republic.\nIt was believed that without new lands to conquer, new space in which to expand, Americans would become a sedentary people riven with the same class divisions (and social conflict) infecting Europe. Furthermore, without new markets, how would American farmers and manufacturers maintain and improve their economic situation? The West was an idea, mostly, but it spoke to an inherently American trait: expansionism. Ours was a society of more: more land, more profits, more freedom, more growth. In a view widely held\u2014then and now\u2014the U.S. would die if it ever stopped expanding. From \u201csea to shining sea\u201d wasn\u2019t enough; no two oceans should hem in American markets, the American people or American ideals. This was, and is, the messianic nature of the American experiment, for better or worse.\nMany citizens were riddled with anxiety about the \u201closs\u201d of the West. This helps explain the widely popular phenomenon of Buffalo Bill Cody\u2019s traveling \u201cWild West\u201d shows, in which he paraded Indians around the cities of the American East and, eventually, around the world. Americans were transfixed at the sight of \u201csavage\u201d natives and \u201cnoble\u201d cowboys and cavalrymen. For Americans of the 1890s, the West\u2014and all it entailed\u2014represented both freedom and virile masculinity. As more and more Americans moved to big cities and became factory laborers, many wondered whether American manhood itself was not in crisis. Those with the means (and the inherent insecurity), men like Theodore Roosevelt, the scion of a wealthy patrician New York family, made pilgrimages to Western ranches as though they represented the New Jerusalem. It is only thus that we have the image of this future American president, a city boy, adorned in Western attire. Such was the inherent unease of the times.\nHow to Sell an Unnecessary War: William Randolph Hearst and the Media-Militarist Conspiracy\nThis 1896 political cartoon from a Spanish newspaper shows a rapacious Uncle Sam reaching toward Cuba and other Spanish colonies in the Caribbean.\nBy 1898, the United States was bursting with energy, self-righteousness and anxiety. The only question was where all that expansionist energy would direct itself. It was then that a coalition of newspapermen and imperialist politicians provided a ready target: Cuba. Spain had, for many years, been engaged in a counterinsurgency campaign against Cuban rebels seeking independence. This would provide the opening that America\u2019s burgeoning imperialists longed for. At the same time, none of this interest in Cuban affairs was new. Before the American Civil War, Southerners had repeatedly called for the annexation of Cuba as a new slave state.\nNow, however, a conglomeration of powerful interests pushed for U.S. intervention on behalf of the Cubans. If that campaign resulted in the seizure of Cuba, well, then, all the better. Historians have long debated which factors or impulses were most responsible for America\u2019s overseas expansion and intervention in Cuba. The reality, though, is that it was a confluence of interests that pushed the U.S. toward war with Spain. Corporate capitalists sought new markets for their goods; missionaries dreamed of Christianizing and \u201ccivilizing\u201d foreign peoples; naval strategists coveted bases and coaling stations to project power across the seas; expansionist politicians\u2014prominent among them Theodore Roosevelt and Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge\u2014believed the U.S. had a mission to expand in order to salvage the virility of the republic; and \u201cmuckraking\u201d newspapermen led by William Randolph Hearst desired nothing more than to sell papers and turn a profit\u2014and the best way to do that was to report, and exaggerate, Spanish atrocities and drum up a new, popular war. War sells, after all.\nThe key triumvirate, however, was the alliance between Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt, Massachusetts Sen. Lodge and newspaper magnate Hearst. Lodge, for one, genuinely hoped for some crisis to precipitate war with Spain. In 1898, he wrote to a friend, \u201cThere may be an explosion any day in Cuba which would settle a great many things.\u201d How right he was! First, an intercepted letter from the Spanish minister in Washington was found to contain unflattering references to President William McKinley. Hearst\u2019s papers exaggerated the story, with his New York Journal running the headline, \u201cWORST INSULT TO THE UNITED STATES IN ITS HISTORY.\u201d This came on top of several years of stories in which the Journal writers whipped up chauvinist support for war with Spain.\nThen, fatefully, on Feb. 15, 1898, an American naval vessel, the USS Maine, exploded in a harbor in Cuba, killing 258 sailors. Without the slightest pause for an investigation, a Hearst headline proclaimed \u201cDESTRUCTION OF THE WARSHIP MAINE WAS THE WORK OF AN ENEMY.\u201d It wasn\u2019t, and experts confirmed later that the explosion was accidental. Even at the time, several policymakers and experts suspected the Maine had fallen victim to fluke tragedy. The secretary of the Navy wrote that the explosion was \u201cprobably the result of an accident\u201d; furthermore, the country\u2019s principal expert on maritime explosions\u2014a professor at the Naval Academy\u2014concluded that \u201cno torpedo such as is known in modern warfare can of itself cause an explosion as powerful as that which destroyed the Maine.\u201d It hardly mattered. The explosion of the Maine provided the casus belli for a nation ready for war.\nCrowds gathered to protest at the Spanish Embassy; effigies of Spaniards were burned. Hearst, the newspaperman who had long sought war, cabled to one of his correspondents that \u201cMaine is a great thing.\u201d President McKinley\u2014who had seen the horror of war at the Battle of Antietam\u2014was initially hesitant to rush into action, but he quickly bowed to the pressure of a militaristic public and Congress. He, without international legal sanction, insisted that Spain give up possession of its \u201cever-faithful isle.\u201d The president must have known, of course, that Spain could never bow to such a demand and still maintain its global prestige. Then, on April 11, McKinley delivered a message to Congress arguing that the U.S. must intervene in Cuba not simply as a result of the Maine explosion, but as a humanitarian intervention on behalf of the embattled Cubans. As historian Stephen Kinzer has written, McKinley thus \u201cbecame the first American president to threaten war against another country because it was mistreating its own subjects.\u201d He would not be the last.\nSpain declared war on the U.S. on April 24, and Washington issued a declaration the next day. The military conflict was to last less than four months, ending in a decisive American victory over an empire long past its prime. Secretary of State John Hay called it a \u201csplendid little war,\u201d and, indeed, it was by some measures the most popular war in American history. War fever infected the American people. The French ambassador observed that a \u201csort of bellicose fever has seized the American nation\u201d; the London Times called it \u201cthe delirium of war\u201d; a German newspaper described it as a \u201clust for conquest.\u201d\nSeeking martial glory, Roosevelt resigned his position as assistant Navy secretary and raised a regiment of volunteer cavalry, \u201cthe Rough Riders.\u201d He would take it to Cuba as part of the hastily formed American expeditionary force seeking to \u201cliberate\u201d the island. Roosevelt found the combat he so desired when his regiment bravely charged to victory in the Battle of San Juan Hill (which was actually fought on nearby Kettle Hill and involved the often-forgotten help of the professional black 9th and 10th Cavalry regiments). Old Teddy was as giddy as a schoolboy, shouting at the height of the battle: \u201cHoly Godfrey, what fun!\u201d He would later call the battle \u201cthe great day of my life.\u201d After the battle, Roosevelt annoyed his professional military peers by shamelessly (and uncouthly) lobbying for a Medal of Honor for himself (President Bill Clinton would eventually bestow the award 80 years after the future president\u2019s death).\nThe war was far from glorious. The Spanish were dislodged from Guam, the Philippines, Puerto Rico and Cuba, but deaths from disease outnumbered U.S. battle deaths by some eight to one. Few Americans cared about this fact, so caught were they in the martial fever of the day.\nIn early 1899, the U.S. Senate would, by a narrow margin, ratify a treaty in which Spain ceded Guam, Puerto Rico and the Philippines to America. This moment was, indeed, a point of no return\u2014the instant that the U.S. became an overseas empire. Cuba technically received independence but, under Congress\u2019 Platt Amendment, became essentially a U.S. protectorate; Washington retained the right to intervene at will in Cuban affairs.\nAnd what of the Cubans themselves, on those behalf the war was supposedly fought? U.S. military and political personnel were, upon arriving on the island, surprised to learn that a significant portion of the population and the rebels were black. After all, the last thing the U.S. of 1898 wanted was an independent black republic on its southern shores. Furthermore, when it turned out the Cuban revolutionaries had expansive social reformist aims beyond independence, Washington was even less apt to grant full independence. Gen. Leonard Wood (a U.S. Army fort is named for him in Missouri), the military governor of Cuba, argued that the U.S. should maintain an indefinite occupation of the island \u201cwhile saying as little as possible about the whole thing.\u201d Wood was eventually pleased by the text of the Platt Amendment, stating, \u201cThere is, of course, little or no independence left Cuba under [the amendment].\u201d This all cohered with Wood\u2019s worldview. He considered the Cubans \u201cas ignorant as children,\u201d and sought to chose their first president.\nThe Spanish-American War also served another purpose for Americans. The conflict, it was said, would heal the divisions of the Civil War and unite the nation behind a \u201cnoble\u201d cause. Newspapers bristled with stories of former Union and Confederate veterans serving together in the American Army in Cuba and the Philippines. In one famous anecdote, the former Confederate Gen. Joseph \u201cFighting Joe\u201d Wheeler\u2014now an old man\u2014led a charge and seemingly forgot whom exactly he was fighting, rallying his men with the cry \u201cLet\u2019s go, boys! We\u2019ve got the damn Yankees on the run again!\u201d It seemed the Spanish-American War was all things for all people, except, of course, the Spaniards and the natives of the former colonies.\nAfter the victory, the Americans\u2019 goals became ever more expansive. A war waged for Cuba turned into a war of conquest as the U.S. seized the Spanish colonies of Guam, Puerto Rico, the Philippines and\u2014for good measure\u2014the independent island of Hawaii (which the Dole corporation coveted as a source of sugar for the American market). In reference to that island, McKinley declared, \u201cWe need Hawaii just as much and a good deal more than we did California. It is manifest destiny.\u201d And so it was.\nFighting for American Manhood\nModern historians continue to grapple with the puzzle of America\u2019s leap into the colonial land grab in 1898. What prompted the sudden bellicosity of American military might? What drove the spirit of the populace to cheer on the war? As usual, there is no simple answer. This much, however, seems certain: The answers to these questions are as much cultural as political. Indeed, one factor that seemingly drove the rush to war was a prevailing American insecurity about the citizens\u2019 collective manhood and masculinity. The historian Jackson Lears, in fact, has persuasively argued that \u201cimperialists deployed a mystical language of evolutionary progress \u2026 celebrating the renewal of masculine will and equating it with personal regeneration.\u201d\nWhy all this gender insecurity? Well, the nation had, with the exception of several small Indian wars fought by the regular Army, been at peace since 1865. The younger generation looked up to the martial exploits of their Civil War veteran fathers. The elders feared that the nation\u2019s youths, for lack of military service and without a Western frontier to conquer, were growing soft. Fewer and fewer Americans of the late 19th century did backbreaking farm work in the fields or ranches of the West as the population shifted toward unskilled \u201csoft\u201d labor in the cities of the East and Midwest.\nIn this climate of insecurity and toxic masculinity, many Americans and their public leaders began to believe the U.S. needed a war to rejuvenate the population and retrieve America\u2019s collective masculinity. As early as 1895, Theodore Roosevelt\u2014the poster boy for masculine self-consciousness\u2014declared that he \u201c[s]hould welcome almost any war, for I think this country needs one.\u201d Because many women, such as the famed social activist Jane Addams, were or would soon be dissenting anti-imperialists, the expansionists depicted their opponents as lacking what Roosevelt declared \u201cthe essential manliness of the American character.\u201d Furthermore, pro-imperialist political cartoons often depicted their opponents wearing women\u2019s clothing.\nThis image from the U.S. Military Academy yearbook of 1924 suggests the self-conscious sexuality and homoeroticism inherent in American warfare, especially in the imperialist adventures of the previous generation.\nIn perhaps his most famous speech, \u201cThe Strenuous Life,\u201d Roosevelt referred to America\u2019s mission in pacifying the now rebellious Filipinos as \u201cman\u2019s work.\u201d The speech was littered with sociosexual language such as his consistent exhortations that Americans must not \u201cshrink\u201d from their duties, and argued that anti-imperialists had an \u201cunwillingness to play the part of men.\u201d In another speech, in Boston, Roosevelt stated, \u201cWe have got to put down the [Philippine] insurrection! If we are men, we can\u2019t do otherwise.\u201d Of course, gender roles and masculine insecurity alone cannot explain the drive for colonies and military expansion; neither, though, can we discount its role in propelling the nation forward into war and conquest.\nWhite Man\u2019s Burden: Race and Empire\nTake up the White Man\u2019s burden,\nAnd bid the sickness cease. \u2026\nYe dare not stoop to less. \u2026\nTake up the White Man\u2019s burden, Have done with childish days. \u2026\nComes now, to search your manhood. \u2026\u201d\n\u2014An excerpt from the Englishman Rudyard Kipling\u2019s poem \u201cWhite Man\u2019s Burden,\u201d an inducement for the United States to occupy the Philippine Islands and join the other imperialist nations of Europe.\nRacism is the original sin of the American experiment. White supremacy was part of the cultural baggage American troops carried abroad. The scourge of race did not stop at our shores. Moreover, it was a global phenomenon; this was the era of social Darwinism, the notion that \u201csurvival of the fittest\u201d applied to man as well as beast, that certain races were scientifically superior to others. It was all snake oil, of course, but it was a predominant ideology\u2014especially since, well, the \u201chigher-level\u201d white race wrote the books and carried the most advanced weapons. It was thus that racism, along with masculinity, would drive American expansionist imperialism at the turn of the 20th century.\nThe war with Spain and the much longer conflict with the Filipino rebels occurred in the context of what was the height of racial violence in the American South. Lynching of blacks reached pandemic proportions, what the author (and later anti-imperialist) Mark Twain described as \u201can epidemic of bloody insanities.\u201d By one estimate, in the period surrounding the start of the 20th century someone in the South was hanged or burned alive on average once every four days. Racism infected the populace and policymakers on both sides of the Mason-Dixon Line. And that disease would frame America\u2019s new wars, which, by no accident, were waged against brown folks. The language of this imperial era, and the prevailing racialized ideology so prevalent in American society, pervaded and justified America\u2019s wars, suppressions and annexations.\nBefore the wars even began, men like Roosevelt argued that, indeed, the U.S. had a racial obligation to get into the imperial game. He wrote, in 1897, that he felt \u201ca good deal disheartened at the queer lack of imperial instinct our people show \u2026 [it would seem] we have lost, or wholly lack, the masterful impulse which alone can make a race great.\u201d Later, as governor of New York, Roosevelt\u2014who dedicated a peculiar amount of his attention to international rather than state affairs\u2014declared that the U.S. had a \u201cmighty mission\u201d and that it needed a \u201cknowledge of [our] new duties.\u201d Where the American flag once flew [in Cuba and the Philippines] \u201cthere must and shall be no return to tyranny or savagery.\u201d\nAfter the U.S. seized the Philippines from Spain, a long legislative debate ensued over just what to do with the islands: Should they be granted independence or held as a colony? On the floor of the Senate, the influential Indiana Republican Albert Beveridge summarized the majority opinion. The Filipinos, because of their race, couldn\u2019t possibly govern themselves. \u201cHow could they?\u201d he exclaimed, \u201cThey are not a self-governing race. They are Orientals.\u201d Later, back in Indiana, Beveridge questioned how anyone could oppose the \u201cmission\u201d of American imperialism. After all, he argued, \u201cThe rule of liberty \u2026 applies only to those who are capable of self-government. We govern Indians without their consent. \u2026 We govern children without their consent.\u201d Coarse though his language was, at least Beveridge was articulating a consistent truth: Americans did have a long history of selectively applying civil rights, regularly denying them to blacks and natives. Why not, then, deny such freedoms to \u201cOrientals\u201d?\nOther interest groups agreed with the racialized framing of America\u2019s role in the world. Missionaries, for example, flocked to the Philippines to \u201cChristianize\u201d the natives\u2014apparently, and ironically, unaware that most Filipinos were already Christian (Roman Catholic). American soldiers also used racist language to address the tough counterinsurgencies they found themselves engrossed in, and to label and dehumanize their enemies. Just before open warfare broke out between American troops and Filipino rebels in the capital of Manila, one U.S. trooper wrote, \u201cWhere these sassy niggers used to greet us daily with a pleasant smile \u2026 they now pass by with menacing looks.\u201d It was, indeed, remarkable how quickly the pejoratives long applied to African-Americans were retooled for America\u2019s new Asian subjects.\nWhen fighting did break out in the Philippines, the soldier who fired the first shots ran back to his lines and yelled, \u201cLine up, fellows, the niggers are in here, all through!\u201d Years later, another American soldier wrote home from the Philippines that \u201cI am growing hardhearted, for I am in my glory when I can sight my gun on some dark skin and pull the trigger.\u201d American soldiers and officers\u2014often veterans of the Native American wars of the last century\u2014also took to mixing metaphors when describing their Filipino opponents. Gen. Elwell Otis urged Filipinos in his district to \u201cbe good Indians.\u201d Gen. Frederick Funston (for whom a military camp is named in Kansas) considered Filipinos \u201ca semi-savage people.\u201d Theodore Roosevelt took to calling Filipino insurgents \u201cApache or Comanche,\u201d or otherwise \u201cChinese half-breeds\u201d or \u201cMalay bandits.\u201d\nIn another twist of irony, many of the Army regiments engaged in combat in the Philippines consisted of black enlisted men. Often more sympathetic to the locals, these African-American troopers recognized how racism alienated and inflamed the Filipino population. One black soldier, B.D. Flower, wrote home in 1902, \u201cAlmost without exception, soldiers and also many officers refer to natives in their presence as \u2018Niggers\u2019 \u2026 and we are daily making permanent enemies. \u2026\u201d Analogous situations exist in America\u2019s contemporary occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Arabs are often called \u201ccamel jockeys,\u201d \u201crag heads\u201d or \u201csand niggers.\u201d The temptation and comfortable mental heuristic to lump the enemy together as an inhuman and often racialized \u201cother\u201d all too often only empowers and spreads rebellion. It is a lesson that this author lamentably learned in Baghdad and Kandahar, and that U.S. Army soldiers of the last century learned in Manila.\nNor was it just missionaries and soldiers who employed racial rhetoric to justify the annexation of new colonies and subjugation of the Filipino rebel movement. An editorial in the Philadelphia Ledger opined, \u201cIt is not civilized warfare, but we are not dealing with a civilized people. The only thing that they know is fear and force, violence and brutality, and we are giving it to them. \u2026\u201d Senior politicians also used racist and pejorative language. President McKinley referred to \u201cmisguided Filipinos\u201d who simply couldn\u2019t recognize that the U.S. acted \u201cunder the providence of God and in the name of human progress and civilization.\u201d In sum, the United States had a racial, religious and civilizational duty to \u201cbenevolently assimilate\u201d those the civilian governor (and future U.S. president) of the Philippines, William Howard Taft, patronizingly called \u201cour little brown brothers.\u201d\nFrom the poetry of the day to the crass language of the common soldier to the rhetoric of the missionary to the proclamations of senior politicians, race infected the words and ideas of American imperialists. Armed with the armor of white supremacy, American fighting men and policymakers would, in the conflict that followed in the Philippines, wage war with a savagery they would never have applied to a white European enemy.\nQuagmire and Atrocity: The Philippine-American War\n\u201cNo imperial designs lurk in the American mind. They are alien to American sentiment. \u2026 Our priceless principles undergo no change under a tropical sun.\u201d \u2014President William McKinley in speaking of the Philippines in 1899\nIt has long been inaccurately labeled the \u201cPhilippine Insurrection\u201d or \u201cthe Philippine-American War\u201d and has been almost lost to history. Few Americans today even recall what is actually best described as a long-running Filipino rebellion waged in quest of independence. In a cruel irony, it was to be the United States\u2014forged in opposition to empire and occupation\u2014that would now play King George as the Filipinos struggled for independence.\nThere was nothing inevitable about the war in the Philippines. Sure, the island chain was a Spanish possession, but given that the war of 1898 was waged allegedly over Cuba, nothing stipulated that the U.S. had to invade and occupy the Philippines. Here again, Roosevelt was front and center. Without consulting his boss or the president, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt issued pre-emptive orders to Adm. George Dewey\u2019s Pacific fleet to sail to Manila and sink the Spanish ships there in the event of an outbreak of war. War began and Dewey followed orders. The result was a massacre. The better-equipped American warships outranged the Spanish vessels and inflicted 381 casualties while suffering only six wounded. Even then, with the Spanish fleet at the bottom of the harbor, nothing preordained the American ground occupation of the islands, but a sort of militaristic inertia ensured that McKinley would indeed sail an army to Manila to take control of the archipelago.\nMcKinley, true to his honest nature, later admitted that when he heard of Dewey\u2019s victory at Manila he \u201ccould not have told you where those darned islands were within a thousand miles.\u201d Presidential ignorance aside, before a significant land force could reinforce Dewey, the naval commander sought all the help he could get in defeating the Spanish garrison. Dewey went so far as to sail the Filipino rebel leader Emilio Aguinaldo\u2014the Filipinos had been in the midst of an independence struggle with the Spanish when the Americans arrived\u2014from Hong Kong to Manila, hoping Aguinaldo\u2019s rebels would reinforce American efforts on the islands. Aguinaldo believed he and Dewey had a deal: that once the combined American-Filipino force liberated the islands, the U.S. would recognize Philippine independence. It was not to be.\nIn the end, when the Spanish garrison surrendered Manila, Aguinaldo was not even invited to the ceremony. It was then, under pressure from expansionists in McKinley\u2019s own party, that the U.S. president had what he described as a \u201cdivine intervention\u201d instructing him to annex the Philippine Islands. Struck by a sudden urge as he walked the corridors of the White House on the night of Oct. 24, 1898, he fell to his knees \u201cand prayed Almighty God for light and guidance,\u201d according to McKinley. Spoiler alert: God told him to seize the Philippines. Later he would declare that \u201cthere was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and to educate the Filipinos, and uplift and civilize and Christianize them by God\u2019s grace.\u201d (As previously noted, most of these pagans who required Christianization were already Roman Catholics!) Interestingly, this was not the only militaristic divine intervention in U.S. presidential history. Before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, then-President George W. Bush famously announced that \u201cGod told him to end the tyranny in Iraq!\u201d In both cases God seems to have saddled Americans with dirty, difficult tasks. (Well, he is known to work in mysterious ways. \u2026)\nAt the start of 1899, McKinley imposed official military rule over the Philippines. Aguinaldo, who led his own army, one that was then staring across the lines at the American Army, could never accept this arrangement. He declared, \u201cMy nation cannot remain indifferent in view of such a violation and aggressive seizure of its territory by a nation [the U.S.] which has arrogated to itself the title, \u2018champion of oppressed races.\u2019 \u2026 My government is disposed to open hostilities.\u201d Before the fighting kicked off, however, the Filipinos, following in the footsteps of the American colonists, nominated members to a newly elected congress and wrote a constitution that drew from the examples of Belgium, France, Mexico and Brazil. Washington ignored this impressively democratic turn of events.\nThe war began when sentries from the two opposing armies fired upon each other on Feb. 4, 1899. The day ended badly for the Filipinos. The superiorly armed and trained American Army implemented a prepared plan of attack as soon as the first shots were fired, and by day\u2019s end 3,000 Filipinos lay dead, in contrast with 60 American fatalities. Within weeks, thousands more Filipino troops and civilians were killed. The anti-imperialist American Sen. Eugene Hale then declared in Washington, accurately, \u201cMore Filipinos have been killed by the guns of our army and navy than were patriots killed in any six battles of the Revolutionary War.\u201d\nU.S. soldiers torture a Filipino in 1901 with the \u201cwater cure,\u201d a form of what is now called waterboarding.\nAfter Aguinaldo\u2019s conventional army was mostly defeated, the archipelago settled into years of guerrilla warfare between the U.S. Army and assorted local rebels (or freedom fighters, depending on one\u2019s point of view). As the war turned into an insurgency, the brutality of both sides\u2014but especially of the Americans\u2014intensified. U.S. soldiers, seeking to gather tactical information from captured insurgents, took to administering the \u201cwater cure,\u201d a crude form of waterboarding that dates back to the Spanish Inquisition in the 16th century. A victim was held to the ground and force-fed water; then his tormentors would stomp on his stomach and repeat the process. Most victims died. A form of this torture would later be employed by the U.S. at Guantanamo Bay and various secret prisons during the so-called \u201cwar on terror.\u201d\nA private wrote in a letter published in a newspaper that after an American soldier was found mutilated, Gen. Loyd Wheaton ordered his forces \u201cto burn the town and kill every native in sight, which was done.\u201d By 1901, Secretary of War Elihu Root had formalized the brutality of the war, telling reporters that from then on the U.S. Army would follow a \u201cmore rigid policy\u201d in the Philippines. One reporter from a New York magazine, The Outlook, went to see this rigid policy for himself. He wrote back a horrifying description of American counterinsurgency. \u201cIn some of our dealings with the Filipinos we seem to be following more or less \u2026 the example of Spain. We have established a penal colony; we have burned native villages \u2026 we resort to torture as a means of obtaining information.\u201d One general, James Franklin Bell, told a reporter that after two years of war \u201cone-sixth of [the main island] of Luzon\u2019s population had either been killed or died of disease\u201d\u2014which would have amounted to more than half a million people. Bell was awarded the Medal of Honor for his efforts.\nA reporter from the Philadelphia Ledger observed, \u201cOur men have been relentless, have killed to exterminate men, women, children, prisoners and captives \u2026 lads of ten and up, the idea prevailing that the Filipino, as such, was little better than a dog.\u201d\nReports of high numbers of prisoner executions appear credible. By the summer of 1901, casualty figures showed that five times as many Filipinos were being killed as wounded\u2014the opposite of what is normally seen in wars. Gen. Arthur MacArthur, senior commander in the Philippines and father of the future Gen. Douglas MacArthur, admitted that his men were indeed under orders to use \u201cvery drastic tactics.\u201d That seems an understatement. Nor was American military violence the only threat to the Filipinos. Around the same time, a cholera epidemic killed over 100,000 people. America\u2019s brand of \u201cfreedom\u201d came at a high price for the Filipino population.\nBy late 1901, with the insurgency all but defeated, many Americans had begun to lose interest in the war. Then, on Sept. 28, Filipino rebels on the distant Philippine island of Samar surprised and killed a high percentage of a U.S. Army company, mostly with machetes. Roughly 50 Americans were slain outright or mortally wounded. Labeled by the press as the \u201cBalangiga Massacre,\u201d it was immediately compared (inaccurately) to Custer\u2019s Last Stand and The Alamo. The real controversy, however, erupted after Brig. Gen. Jacob \u201cHell-Roaring Jake\u201d Smith, a 62-year-old vet of the Indian Wars, was sent to pacify Samar.\nReports of extreme abuses and alleged war crimes immediately arrived back home. This time the Congress had little choice but to conduct a pro forma investigation. During congressional hearings, a U.S. Army major testified that Gen. Smith had told him: \u201cI want no prisoners. I wish you to kill and burn. The more you kill and burn, the better you will please me. I want all persons killed who are capable of bearing arms.\u201d When the major asked for an age guideline, Smith allegedly replied \u201c10 years.\u201d Smith, called to the hearings, eventually admitted to all this. He was court-martialed but served not a day in prison. His punishment was a reprimand from the secretary of war, with the leniency being justified on the grounds that Smith was driven to crime by \u201ccruel and barbarous savages.\u201d For another American general, Frederick Funston, even the reprimand of Smith was too harsh. Funston freely admitted in a speech that he \u201cpersonally strung up 35 Filipinos without trial, so what\u2019s all the fuss over [Smith] dispatching a few treacherous savages?\u201d Asked how he felt about the growing anti-imperialist movement in America, Funston declared that those harboring such sentiments \u201cshould be dragged out of their homes and lynched.\u201d Reading of this interview, the avowed anti-imperialist Mark Twain volunteered to be the first man lynched.\nThe final major campaign occurred on southern Luzon in 1902. Gen. James Franklin Bell removed natives from villages and placed them in concentration camps; crops were burned and livestock was killed; a random Filipino was selected for execution each time an American soldier was killed in combat (a certain war crime even by the standards of the day); and an American decree made it \u201ca crime for any Filipino to advocate independence.\u201d In three months, 50,000 locals were killed. The war was effectively over, though short spurts of violence and rebellion would occur occasionally for another decade. Untold hundreds of thousands of Filipinos were dead. The water buffalo, the key to rural life in the region, had been made nearly extinct, its numbers diminished by some 90 percent. Indeed, as historian Stephen Kinzer disturbingly noted, \u201cFar more Filipinos were killed or died as a result of mistreatment [over four years] than in three and a half centuries of Spanish rule.\u201d This, it appears, was the price of American \u201cliberty\u201d\u2014and the islands would not receive genuine independence until after World War II!\nFor the Soul of America: The (Mostly) Noble Anti-Imperialist Movement\nFor all the villains in this story, there were Americans willing to dissent against overseas conquest and imperialism. Indeed, they were a large, diverse and sometimes peculiar lot. They are, too, the heroes of the era. For the most part, that is. From the very start of the Philippine occupation, many prominent citizens publicly opposed the war. This coalition of intellectuals, politicians, artists and businessmen may have acceded to the conquest of native and Mexican lands but saw imperial expansion overseas as un-American and unconstitutional. Throughout the era they made their voices heard and fought for the soul of the nation.\nEarly critics of the war pointed out the hypocrisy of fighting for Cuban rights when African-Americans at home were still regularly lynched and disenfranchised. A dozen prominent New Yorkers raised the alarm in a public letter before the war with Spain, proclaiming, \u201cThe cruelty exhibited in Cuba is no peculiarity of the Spanish race; within the last few weeks instances of cruelty to Negroes occurred in this country which equal, if not surpass, anything which has occurred in Cuba. \u2026 Our crusade in this matter should begin at home.\u201d The most prominent black leader of the era, Booker T. Washington, raised a similar concern in a speech after the Spanish surrender. After praising the heroic efforts of the troops, he called for America to heal racial wounds on the domestic front. He argued, \u201cUntil we conquer ourselves, I make no empty statement when I say we shall have, especially in the southern part of our country, a cancer gnawing at the heart of the republic.\u201d\nIt was, however, the annexation of the Philippines that truly kicked off a dissenting movement in the United States. Skeptics across the spectrum of public life would form the Anti-Imperialist league, which, at its height, had hundreds of thousands of members\u2014one of the largest anti-war movements in American history and an impressive achievement in a period of such intense martial fervor. The leaders of the movement included Democratic Party stalwart William Jennings Bryan, the magnate Andrew Carnegie (who offered to buy the Philippines from the U.S. government in order to set the islands free!), the social activist Jane Addams, the labor organizer Samuel Gompers, the civil rights leader Booker T. Washington, former President Grover Cleveland, former President Benjamin Harrison and the famed author Mark Twain. What the members of this diverse group had in common was a profound sense that imperialism was antithetical to the idea of America.\nBryan, one of the great orators of the day, summarized this notion when he proclaimed that \u201cthe imperialistic idea is directly antagonistic to the idea and ideals which have been cherished by the American people since the signing of the Declaration of Independence.\u201d The politician and Civil War veteran Carl Schurz compared the Filipino rebels favorably with the colonial patriots and asked what Americans would do if the natives refused to submit\u2014\u201cLet soldiers marching under the Stars and Stripes shoot them down? Shoot them down because they stand up for their independence?\u201d Of course, that is exactly what the U.S. Army would do, under orders from the president himself.\nThe Anti-Imperialist League won many moral but few practical victories. Part of the reason for this was the U.S. government\u2019s overt suppression of civil liberties. Famously, in what became known as the \u201cmail war,\u201d the postmaster general ordered anti-imperialist literature mailed to soldiers in the Philippines to be confiscated. Critics of American foreign policy called it the \u201crape of the mail.\u201d Practically thwarted, artists and cultural critics took the anti-imperial fight to public. The most prominent and outspoken was Mark Twain, and this, more than his famous books, marked the man\u2019s finest hour. He announced his stand in late 1900, stating, \u201cI have seen that we do not intend to free, but to subjugate the people of the Philippines. We have gone there to conquer, not to redeem. \u2026 And so I am an anti-imperialist.\u201d Twain only lashed out harder as the war went on. By 1901, he declared that \u201cwe have debauched America\u2019s honor and blackened her face\u201d and recommended the Stars and Stripes be changed: \u201cWe can just have our usual flag, with the white stripes painted black and the stars replaced by the skull and cross-bones.\u201d Some called it treason, others patriotism.\nThough the anti-imperialists might appear to be saints, there was a dark element in the movement. Many dissenters\u2019 opposition to annexation of foreign lands came not from a moral code but from fear of the racial amalgamation that might result. Some of these men were anti-imperialist senators from the South. One, Sen. Ben Tillman of South Carolina, summarized this viewpoint, concluding, \u201cYou are undertaking to annex and make a component part of this Government islands inhabited by tens of millions of the colored race \u2026 barbarians of the lowest type.\u201d Furthermore, he stated, \u201cIt is to the injection of the body politic of the United States of that vitiated blood, that debased and ignorant people, that we object.\u201d This was far from the language of liberty, but remained embarrassingly common in the movement.\nThis offensive component aside, eventually, and remarkably, genuine anti-imperialist sentiments made it into the official platform of the Democrats, one of the two mainstream political parties. Imagine a major party platform, even today, declaring: \u201cWe oppose militarism. It means conquest abroad and intimidation and oppression at home. It means the strong arm which has been ever fatal to free institutions.\u201d It was a noble platform, indeed. But, ultimately, these sentiments and this party lost. Theodore Roosevelt, the national cheerleader of imperialism, easily retained the presidency in the election of 1904 (he had risen from vice president to the presidency when McKinley was assassinated in 1901). In a sense, this marked the death knell of an era of anti-imperialism. There had been, in the election, a referendum on the nature of the national soul, and, sadly, the American people chose war, conquest and annexation.\nThis era remains with us; it is alive in our debates and politics. Consider this: Even now, citizens of Puerto Rico, Guam and Samoa have no representation in Congress or a vote in presidential elections. The status of these territories and their populations is peculiar for a nation that so strongly professes democracy. The situation is a direct result of decisions made in 1898-1904. In 1901, the Supreme Court, by a vote of 5 to 4, ruled in Downes v. Bidwell that \u201cthe Constitution does not apply\u201d to the territories because the islands were \u201cinhabited by alien races.\u201d This verdict, one among what are called the \u201cinsular cases,\u201d remains essentially intact to this day.\nAnother legacy of the era was the rapid expansion of executive, presidential power. McKinley became the first president to, according to historian Stephen Kinzer, \u201csend a large force to a country with which the United States was not at war,\u201d when, in 1900, he dispatched 5,000 troops from the Philippines to help suppress the nationalist Boxer Rebellion in China. One could plausibly argue that this was the birth of what is still known as \u201cpresidential war power.\u201d It is because of this precedent that American soldiers fight one undeclared war after another across the Middle East. Between 1898 and 1904, the American people\u2014living in a somewhat democratic country (for white men, at least)\u2014made a series of choices about what, exactly, the United States was to be. Mark Twain begged the populace to choose liberty; Roosevelt urged expansion and power. The citizenry made its fateful choice, for better or worse.\nWe live still in the shadow of 1898.

        "raw_content": "Q&A: Ottawa actress Sarah Fisher depicts best friend's cancer struggle in Kiss and Cry\nSarah Fisher stars as Carley Allison, her real life best friend, in the movie Kiss and Cry. Allison died in 2015 of an extraordinarily rare cancer.\tsupplied / -\nOttawa-born actress Sarah Fisher remembers the first time she saw Carley Allison, singing with her guitar at a lunch-hour open mic at Toronto\u2019s Bayview Glen high school.\nAllison, two grades Fisher\u2019s junior, was an aspiring singer and an elite-level figure skater who at age 17 was diagnosed with a cancer so rare there was only one other person in the world who had it. She would battle the disease for two years, continuing to skate, twice singing O Canada before Toronto Maple Leaf games and inspiring thousands with her irrepressible optimism. Allison died in March 2015. Now, Fisher stars as her friend in the feature film Kiss and Cry, which premieres in Ottawa on March 23 at the Mayfair Theatre. The movie showing and a post-screening Q&A with the cast and crew is a fundraiser for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.\nFisher, who will attend Thursday\u2019s screening, spoke to the Citizen\u2019s Blair Crawford from Los Angeles about what it was like to play her best friend on the big screen.\nQ: You not only play the lead in the movie, but this is a story you pitched as well, right?\nA: I did a feature film with an amazing producer and director, Sean Cisterna. We loved working together and he said \u2018If you want to do something else together, I\u2019d be interested.\u2019 I thought, \u2018If I\u2019m going to tell any story, I want it to be an inspiring story.\u2019 And the first person I think of for inspiration is Carley Allison.\nI told him \u2018I have the best story you\u2019ll ever hear. I\u2019m going to come and give you an elevator pitch.\u2019 We ended up talking for 2 1/2 hours. Within a year, we had a feature film.\nQ: Let\u2019s back up a bit. Tell us about your friendship with Carley.\nA: I remember so clearly the first time I saw her. She was an incredible performer, an incredible athlete. I saw this little, perfect, gorgeous blonde girl get up with her guitar. It was almost like she had this physical brightness beaming from her. We became very, very good friends. Great friends.\nQ: What was it like for you when you learned Carley had been diagnosed with cancer?\nA: There\u2019s so much that you learn when you watch someone you love deal with cancer. She was diagnosed at 17 years old and the way she dealt with it \u2014 she had a smile on her face every time I went to see her. Everyone jumps to the conclusion that the whole situation was sad. But every time I was with Carley, we were just laughing. It wasn\u2019t a sad experience because she wouldn\u2019t let it be one. If you were sad, she\u2019d tell you to leave the room.\nQ: There must have been hard times. Was she open with you about the difficult things?\nA: It was very hard to even know how she was feeling. It was never about cancer when I was with her. I really had to push her: \u2018How are you really feeling? Can I do anything for you?\u2019 She never wanted anyone to feel sad. She knows how hard it is for everyone around her to see someone you love in that position.\nShe felt she was the one who was chosen and thrown at this new world of having to deal with cancer and chemo and radiation. Carley has changed my life. You see people who take life for granted, (but) if you\u2019re healthy, you should be so happy. You have so much already going for you. You can do anything.\nQ: What did the two of you talk about?\nA: lot of people don\u2019t know how to respond or be around someone they love who has a scary illness, so we would speak about that. How do you react? What do you say when your best friend is going through a one-in-3.5-billion disease? But Carley made it such a happy, warm loving environment for the people around her because that\u2019s what she wanted.\nCarley Allison singing O Canada at teh 2014 Ride to Conquer Cancer. Allison died in 2015, but her life is subject of the feature film Kiss and Cry. Veronica Henri / Veronica Henri/Toronto Sun/QMI Agency\nQ: When you played her role in the movie, do you tackle the harder things in addition to her optimism and joyousness?\nA: We did want to make sure we covered that. She and her boyfriend went to see a movie about two people with cancer (The Fault in Our Stars). When it was over, she looked at him and said, \u2018It was good, but our story is so much better.\u2019\nBut she also said she found the actors in the movie who were playing cancer patients didn\u2019t look sick. She thought, that\u2019s not what you look like. That\u2019s not how you feel. She said (the actress) had all her hair, she had her eyebrows. So we wanted to make sure this movie is realistic to what cancer was like for Carley and what cancer is like for most patients. When I was healthy we added small extra eyelashes and when I was sick we got rid of them. I dyed my eyebrows to get rid of them when I was going through chemo. We made sure you see the many moments that are so hard and so difficult to deal with when you\u2019re going through cancer. We have a scene where she tries on her prom dress after she\u2019s gone through chemo. You can see how she reacts when she sees how much weight she\u2019s lost.\nQ: This is the question you\u2019ve been asked a hundred times. How hard was it to play your best friend in a movie?\nA: Every time people ask they say it must have been so hard. I always say, \u2018Look at what Carley did.\u2019 Yes, there were scenes that were emotional, but when we think of Carley we really don\u2019t think of cancer. That\u2019s not what she left us thinking about.\nIt was trying to get into her mindset of how Carley was feeling when everyone left the room. Carley made sure we all believed she was OK and everything was good and she was feeling great, even though most of the time she wasn\u2019t. She chose to make all of us feel happy. So as an actress trying to bring that to life, you have to think, even after Mom and Dad go to bed, what was she feeling at that point, when there was no one in front of her to make happy? That was hard. That was a lot of work.\nKiss and Cry plays Thursday, March 23 at the Mayfair Theatre, 1074 Bank St. Doors open at 6 p.m., with the screening at 6:30 p.m., followed by a Q&A with Sarah Fisher and other crew members. The screening is a fundraiser for the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.\nFacebook Live Replay at JunoFest: Here's what happened on the Red... \ue221 Ottawa book trailer beats out Strange Things, The Crown for SXSW...",

        "raw_content": "This article, which was first published by SCRIP Regulatory Affairs on 1 December 2014, explains why the ruling of the UK High Court from July 2014 in the Eli Lilly v HGS case may well provide what the SPC community has sought for years, namely a test for compliance with Article 3(a) that is not only simple and robust but that is also relatively straightforward to apply in a wide variety of cases. However, the article also explains why this is unlikely to be the end of the saga relating to Article 3(a) and, in this respect, discusses two alternative interpretations of Article 3(a) that have been proposed by some commentators and that could muddy the waters for a number of years to come. Whilst one of those alternative interpretations is perhaps not fundamentally inconsistent with the extent of protection test used by the UK High Court, the same cannot be said for the other - which is based upon an unusual reading of the CJEU\u2019s ruling in Queensland and which appears to be impossible to reconcile with the conclusions reached by the UK High Court. In this respect, the article outlines reasons why that more challenging interpretation must be wrong and why the UK High Court\u2019s extent of protection test must prevail \u2013 at least for now.",

        "title": "Rally 'Round the Cannon | Princeton Alumni Weekly",
        "raw_content": "45 years ago, an All-American and the single wing led Princeton football to an undefeated season\nGregg Lange \u201970 is a member of the Princetoniana Committee and the Alumni Council Committee on Reunions, an Alumni Schools Committee volunteer, and a trustee of WPRB radio.\nOn Nov. 14 at the Yale Game, the University celebrated its most recent undefeated football team. It\u2019s nice that most of the players are still around, if only to pointedly show the denizens of the current program that it\u2019s a rational goal, but that isn\u2019t the topic here; instead, there\u2019s a more substantial lesson to be gleaned from that remarkable team of 1964. It\u2019s a tale of opportunistic triumph over confusion, of focus and simplicity as creative forces, in a phrase, the Triumph of the Single Wing. And ironically, it was accomplished by starving the offense.\n\u2026 you\u2019ll be a Man, my son.\nFor, you see, the college football world in 1964 was a complete shambles. In the early 1950s, the NCAA had gone on a cost-saving kick and instituted one-platoon football, essentially eliminating specialists and emphasizing all-around athletes who could survive for 60 minutes. This held sway for 12 years, then was reversed after the \u201963 season. Coaches and players comfy with 11-man football suddenly had more than 50 percent of their slots open. Given the honored tradition of intellectual flexibility in football, panic ensued.\nPrinceton, coming off a strong 7-2 Ivy co-championship season (concluded, however, with a galling 22-21 loss to its nemesis and co-champ, Bob Blackman of Dartmouth), had an unfair advantage: Coach Dick Colman not only read books, he was something of an historian. He recalled enough, for example, to stay firmly with the single-wing offense, a gutty creature of unbalanced line play and direct snaps to the tailback/runner/passer, perfected in Palmer Stadium by his predecessor and mentor, Charlie Caldwell \u201925, in the \u201940s and \u201950s. As college teams had gone rapidly to the sexy T-formation, opponents found the Princeton single wing increasingly hard to defend against, since they got no exposure to it otherwise. Colman also recalled the 1951 Princeton season, symbolized by one of the great photos ever run here in Your Favorite Periodical:\nPrinceton, coming off an undefeated Lambert Trophy year in 1950 and amid Heisman buzz surrounding All-American tailback Dick Kazmaier \u201952, had no other starters back on offense. Caldwell, who actually wrote books, had responded counterintuitively: He gathered up his 11 best athletes (apart from Kazmaier) and put them on defense, reasoning that it would give the offense time to round into shape: The goal was to win games, not Heismans. Sure enough, the Tigers\u2019 production dropped from 39 points a game \u2013 to 34 \u2013 but they shut out their three toughest opponents, Brown, Yale, and Dartmouth, and went undefeated again. Poor Kazmaier took one for the team: His per-carry average dropped from 6.0 yards (insane) to 5.8 (astounding), but he did manage to salvage the Heisman. Close call.\nSo Colman, when two platoons came around again in 1964, took his experienced, fast guys and put them on defense. The exception (well, sort of; he actually was the only Tiger who consistently still played both ways) was Cosmo Iacavazzi \u201965 *68, the intimidating first-team All-American fullback who had tied Hobey Baker \u201914\u2019s Princeton season touchdown record the year before. Iacavazzi punished people in both directions, and was encouraged to continue.\nCosmo Iacavazzi '65 *68\nThe Ivy League picture was a muddle; every team other than Penn (ah, those were the days!) was given some sort of chance, and even the \u201963 co-champs had finished 5-2, hardly awesome. So when the Tigers started off with three- and 10-point home wins over mediocre Rutgers and Columbia, the lack of experienced offense became alarming.\nEspecially since the next game was the Tigers\u2019 first-ever trip to Hanover, N.H. Somehow, the strange journey to the wild land of black bears and Blackman created the offensive focus that had been lacking. It was 10-0 at the half and 20-0 at the end of the third quarter, and Princeton got its revenge for the prior year, 37-7. Almost 40 percent of the offense was through the air, ideal for the single wing. This was followed by offensively lackluster home wins over Colgate 9-0 and Harvard 16-0, a 14-0 bruiser at Brown with Iacavazzi getting 178 yards, and a 55-0 plastering of awful Penn at Franklin Field, in which Princeton had 360 yards rushing and Penn crossed midfield for the first time with two minutes remaining. Colman noted that the defense, with Stas Maliszsewski \u201966 doing a passable version of Illinois\u2019 fearsome linebacker Dick Butkus, was superb (seven points total allowed in five games \u2013 ya think?), and the offense was \u201cmaking strides.\u201d\nThis was all prelude to a ballyhooed showdown for the Ivy championship in New Haven, with 6-0-1 Yale and 7-0 Princeton duking it out in front of 60,000 fans \u2013 the first time since 1906 the two had met with both unbeaten. Yale scored on its opening drive, becoming the only team to hold a lead on the Tigers the entire season \u2013 for less than 13 minutes. It was 14-14 at the half, with Yale\u2019s Chuck Mercein moving the ball as no one had done on Princeton all year. Then finally, after eight games of inconsistency, the Tiger offensive line in the second half solved the nuances of single wing blocking (by themselves; Colman literally said nothing to them at halftime) and simply wouldn\u2019t surrender the ball; Iacavazzi had 185 yards on only 20 carries in the highlight game of his career, the team ended up with 354 yards on the ground, and Princeton never punted after the first quarter. Final, 35-14 Tigers.\nAll that remained for the new Ivy champs was a 3-4-1 Cornell team that was dangerous offensively, having scored 118 points in its last three games. But the big problem again was Princeton\u2019s offense because the game was in Palmer Stadium, where the team mysteriously was averaging 14.5 points per game, as opposed to 35 on the road. Sure enough, the Tigers went up 14-0 at the half, then went into early hibernation; the 17-12 final was closer than it needed to be. Indeed, the most important stat was on the defensive side: Maliszewski had 19 tackles, every one of which was needed. Colman\u2019s defend-and-conquer strategy in the beginning made itself known to the end.\nIndeed, the undefeated Tigers had regressed from 28 points per game (although only to 24, thanks to their mystifying productivity only on the road) but were undefeated, since the defense had given up a grand total of 53 points in nine games. Meanwhile, the afterthought single wing just did what it did best, controlling the ball: Iacavazzi ran for 909 yards (5.3 per carry), tailbacks Don McKay \u201965 and Ron Landeck \u201966 ran for 632, and the team threw only eight passes per game. They scored more against Penn than the defense allowed all year. They gave away a minuscule 12 turnovers the entire season while the veteran defense collected 30, a differential of fully two per game. Iacavazzi repeated as first-team All-American; fittingly, Maliszewski joined him (and Butkus).\n\u201cSo, do you like Kipling?\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m not sure; I\u2019ve never kippled.\u201d\n-- Joke approximately three days younger\nthan Rudyard Kipling\nIf you\u2019re a football fan (an admittedly dangerous fixation for a Princetonian these days), lately you have been amused if not transfixed by the breathless hoopla surrounding the current NFL \u201csurprise of the decade\u201d (in the \u201980s it was the West Coast offense; in the \u201990s it was the alternate third jersey, as far as I can tell): It\u2019s the Wildcat! The novel offense is in reality Charlie Caldwell\u2019s single wing, of course, being executed by kids who think it\u2019s new and cool and don\u2019t know how to do it very well. Better they should remember Charlie as Dick Colman did, and stick to defense.\nDavid Jordan '56 Says:\nI was fortunate enough to see most of those '64 games - especially Yale - and to enjoy every one of them. It was great that Cosmo was able to speak to our '09 team and get them revved up for Yale!!\nAllan Lenzner '60 Says:\nGood article. As I tell all my children and their peers, the wildcat is nothing more than the single wing! And the most interesting part of it is to watch the double teams up front and watching the back run as close to the double team as he can get.\nRick Waldron '71 Says:\nYears ago I was lucky to stumble across, and purchase, a copy of Charlie Caldwell's book, \"Modern Single Wing Football.\" Written with clarity, precision, and passion, it's a great read even if you're not an intense fan of the game. I like the word 'modern' in the title - portends a new way of thinking, like 'modern mathematics.'\nWes Hobbs Says:\nGreat article. I'm lucky enough to have a copy of Caldwell's book on single-wing football. Several years ago, I sold off a lot of my coaching books that I had collected over the years. This book was by far the highest-selling book, over $100. It actually sold to a Texas high school defensive coordinator, who was becoming a head coach and wanted to use the single wing on offense. This \"modern\" style of play has definitely made a comeback. Nothing is new in football if you look back far enough.\nFive yards and a cloud of defense\nLooking Forward: Reflections of Black Princeton Alumni\nHorton hears a boo, part 1",

        "raw_content": "The curriculum for training in psychoanalysis is tripartite, including: the personal analysis, supervised clinical work, and didactic seminars. The Center has a well-respected, scholarly faculty that ably conveys the complexity of psychoanalytic thinking today. The didactic curriculum consists of a series of seminars, given weekly over five years, designed to impart a thorough knowledge of psychoanalytic theory beginning with Freud\u2019s discovery of the unconscious mind and encompassing conflict theory, ego psychology, object relations theory, perspectives on narcissism, and relational theory. The curriculum keeps abreast of contemporary issues such as gender theory, trauma theory, research in child development, and findings in neuroscience. Technique is taught in seminars and in Continuous Case Conferences, in which a single case is followed over the duration of the course. Development from infancy to adulthood is studied in a six-course sequence. Years Four and Five study special topics in Advanced Electives. An active Curriculum Committee reviews courses and explores ways in which new areas of knowledge may be incorporated into the program. Candidate representatives participate as voting members on the Curriculum Committee.\nThe American Psychoanalytic Association designates these Live Activities for a maximum of 1.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)\u2122 per session. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.\nPersonal Psychoanalysis\nThe personal psychoanalysis is the foundation for all subsequent professional training in psychoanalysis. Its objectives include gaining an awareness of unconscious processes and developing the skills and capacities for empathy, insight, and object relatedness necessary for personal development as a psychoanalyst. Inherent in these objectives is the goal of addressing conflictual matters that might interfere with the practice of psychoanalysis. It is indistinguishable from a therapeutic analysis and thus offers the candidate an opportunity to understand the process from the patient\u2019s vantage point, as well as the chance to work through one\u2019s own personal difficulties, conflicts, and blind spots. The duration of the personal analysis depends on the needs of the individual and shall be determined by the candidate and training analyst. It is the experience of the majority of training analysts that five analytic sessions a week constitute the preferred conditions for the continuity of the analysis, with four analytic sessions a week as the minimum.\nSupervised Clinical Work\nThe focus of supervision is to learn to identify the presence of unconscious forces in the mental life of patients and to use psychoanalytic techniques to resolve neurosis and promote mental health as well as to understand the role of transference and counter-transference in treatment. Candidates are required to conduct at least three psychoanalyses (4-5 sessions per week) under supervision. It is expected that most candidates will be ready to begin supervised clinical work after the Introductory Technique course and their personal analysis is underway. While there are exceptions, it is strongly recommended that supervisory experiences occur weekly for each case. Low fee supervision is available for 200 hours of supervision. The PCOP Consultation and Referral Service can act as a source of psychoanalytic case referrals for candidates. The Institute also offers an individual case development mentoring to aid in the development of an analytic practice. Case reports are required every six months on each training case, and a full case write-up is required on one case. Write-ups should be submitted to supervisors for feedback. The capacity to write about one\u2019s work is an important component in the preparation for post-graduate development, which may include certification in psychoanalysis.\nCandidate Progression\nThe Progression Committee, a subcommittee of the Education Committee, is responsible for the ongoing evaluation of a candidate\u2019s progress in training. Each candidate will be assigned a faculty Advisor as a liaison between the candidate and the Progression Committee. The Advisor is also available to discuss issues related to courses or clinical work. Candidates will also be paired with a faculty Mentor from whom advice and support may be sought throughout their training. The mentor relationship is fully confidential and free from reporting to the Progression Committee.\nThe Institute requires that the following criteria be met for a candidate to graduate: a minimum of 300 hours of supervision be satisfactorily completed or a minimum of 7 case years; a minimum of three adult cases in four times per week treatment, at least one male and one female; and an ability to exhibit an understanding of analytic process and technique in their written work. One case must be supervised into the termination phase of analysis, or for a minimum of four years. It is expected that a candidate will be in his/her personal analysis for a significant period of time during the course of his/her clinical work.\nShortly after the candidate begins the third case, the Progression Committee will review the candidate\u2019s record and discuss any further requirements for graduation with the candidate. The Education Committee, to whom the Progression Committee reports, may require that further supervised work be undertaken. The ultimate decision regarding graduation from the Division of Adult Psychoanalysis depends on an evaluation of the candidate\u2019s clinical work by the Progression Committee and approval by the Education Committee.",

        "raw_content": "Director, Global owner of Customer Relationship Planning and Sales Process,\nIn the recent \u201cThe Future of Business Transformation\u201d study conducted by Kairos Future and Tieto, 43% of Nordic executives cited \u201dmore demanding customers\u201d as one of the prime macro-trends from fifteen different selections. I\u2019m not surprised about these results.\nThe way companies manage their customer experience is evolving into a diverse system. This system is comprised of elements that are present throughout every customer's journey of using and experiencing delivered services. Companies need to treat customers as individuals by creating a customer experience management (CEM) strategy that includes all customer interaction across the organization.\nTechnology can help us to acquire needed data so that we can have a sufficient amount of information for decision making. By analyzing this data, we can identify a certain baseline where we are currently operating. Along with conducting an analysis on these customer-specific issues, we also need to predict the future. You have to know where you and your customers want to be in three years, and then you can really offer the right things in time with the customer\u2019s own operating planning. And in positive manner to challenge the customer to think even beyond identified initiatives.\nThe most professional sales persons can package information from a multiple number of channels for customer\u2019s best. I like to think of the salesperson leading the sales process as a \u201dbow tie.\u201d On one side is the client, and on the other side is the providing company. The salesperson acts as a source of information for both sides and delivers value for both parties.\nThis person has the self-confidence to know what can be done and what cannot be done. He has to be able to say \u201dno\u201d to the customer because of validated reasons, even if it means a turned down sale. A good salesperson says no to something when he knows that there is another solution that will actually benefit the customer, especially if it's one the customer didn't know about before.\nThis is my advice to all salespeople: know how your customer's stakeholders are measured. Help them get their yearly bonuses and they will be thankful. Help your customer get better results for their business with your help than what they would have gotten without your help.\nJari is the Director and Global owner of Customer Relationship Planning and Sales Process at Tieto Plc.

        "raw_content": "Education as just a trend\nThere is a flaw in our system of voting. A flaw that has caused the #RedforEd movement to be necessary, and impacts every individual within the Perry High campus. That flaw, is that school students, aren\u2019t a force that can influence politics, when politics, is the biggest force and influence on them. Politics decide how much our schools are funded. What kinds of technology we get access to, the different books we get to read, how much our teachers are paid, how many teachers we even get to have. Politics, politicians, and most importantly, voting citizens of Arizona, decide the fate of our education. In the last midterm election, the elections that decide the most when it comes to changes within the state, roughly one million five hundred thousand individuals voted, translating too just over a million people deciding what politicians will represent them and make decisions that are best in their favor.\nBecause that is how politics works, everyone gets a ballot, and votes for the person that they want to represent them, they vote for the person that will get lower taxes, or make sure that the roads are paved. But the roughly 2-million children currently within school, don\u2019t get to pick anyone to represent them, or to do what is best for their education, we must rely on those who can vote, our parents, our teachers, our staff. To make sure that what is so vital to our lives and futures stay open.\nIf to say someone\u2019s job was to be a coal miner, and had no kids of their own, but even if they did have kids. Voting for a candidate who supported schools would be little more than a moral decision; there is no true impact to someone who is already out of school on how much schools are funded, other than the raising of their taxes or the intelligence of their kids, taxes being something that can be felt instantly, and education being an effect that only slowly comes to fruition over time.\nYet within this past midterm, we have been able to witness something of a peculiar standing. As unlike ever before, politicians talk about education more than just a simple nod at how schools need more funding, but Gov. Doug Ducey and company talked on plans, what they have done or what they will do. The reason for the sudden focus on the children and funding has become all too transparent with time. This sudden focus on education is a symptom of the #RedForEd movement and the state-wide public support it received last spring.\nTeachers, students, and supporters, marching in the streets for what they felt was right got the attention of our legislature, and we saw that in their mid-term advertising.\nWhat the #RedForEd movement has done is brought attention to the subject that teachers, students, and faculty must deal with in everyday life: the status of our schools. It has turned the people who can vote \u2013 the true voices that the politicians listen to \u2013 and now look at schools as more than just a free government daycare, but as something that deserves there ballot. It will be interesting to see how with so many new lawmakers in office, if things will continue to improve for Arizona schools or if this was all just a ploy to win an election.",

A courtesy shuttle will be available for your transportation. You do NOT have to stay at the Sheraton O\u2019Hare Suites, though. You also have the option of staying at any hotel of your choice and traveling to the Sheraton.\nWe recently published a case study regarding our events, and I have another one. This one also stemmed from last year\u2019s Fall Conference. Not only did the recruiters involved make a split, but it was one of the recruiter\u2019s first split as a Network member!\nSo congratulations to the recruiters involved. This is yet more proof that attending the 2018 Fall Conference can help you make more split placements. So sign up in the Members\u2019 Area with a credit card and I\u2019ll see YOU in Chicago!\n\u201cMike and I met at the Chicago meeting, and we were actually sitting beside each other at a round table discussion. I talked to Mike about my client, and he said he thought he had a great candidate for me. He was looking to relocate to the Southeast, closer to Asheville. I started working with Mike\u2019s candidate and presented his resume to my client on 10/26/17. They did not interview him face-to-face until 2/23/18. They hired him for a totally different position. It was also my first TE placement!\u201d\nSubmitted by Genie Matthews of Genie Matthews & Associates regarding her Network split placement with Mike Bishop of Quality Recruiting & Consulting\nPosition Title\u2014PROCESS IMPROVEMENT BLACK BELT\n(Editor\u2019s note: This is the first Network split placement that Genie and Mike have made together in Top Echelon.)",

        "raw_content": "Resilient Cities Take on Climate Change\nResilient cities around the globe are tackling everything from rising sea levels and coastal erosion, to energy and housing challenges.\nA project pioneered by the Rockefeller Foundation called 100 Resilient Cities, aims to revolutionise current urban development to achieve resilient, sustainable cities.\nWith a greater concentration of people and assets in urban areas, it is recognised that cities can\u2019t keep doing what has always been done and cope with the ever-changing environment.\nUp there with the fastest growing populations, many African cities are feeling the pressure to cope under current urban development designs.\nPeter Berkowitz, president of the program, acknowledges African cities are in the front line in terms of urbanisation globally.\n\u201cPeople are moving out of the villages and into cities at unprecedented rates. This will inevitably put additional pressure on any city\u2019s landscape.\u201d Therefore, he says the aim \u201cis to provide a model for what a new, more resilient urbanisation might look like.\u201d\nEleven African cities that embrace the need to change recently joined 89 other cities all striving to build resilience in assisting communities to better manage adversity, uncertainty and disruption.\nAmongst the African cities participating are Dakar, Accra, Cape Town, Kigali, Luxor and Nairobi, and the list goes on, which are all making strong strides to a more sustainable tomorrow.\nThe program aims to empower individuals, communities, institutions, businesses and systems within a city to survive, adapt and grow during any type of shock or stress a city might be prone to.\nPeter Berkowitz acknowledges \u201cfor this change to occur, many of the necessary conversations need to come from the ground up.\u201d\nAlthough a resilience strategy is a first step, it provides a platform for cities around the globe to work together to create communities that are more cohesive and plan for greater mobility, improved air quality, and better built environments and architecture.\nNot as far away, this week the City of Sydney hosted the Green Cities Conference. The event is a platform for leading sustainability minds to come together and explore how Australian cities can make greater strides towards clean air quality, accessible and modern transportation, protection from flooding, and other effects of climate change.\nThe conference, like the 100 Resilient Cities program, offers an example of how people and cities are understanding the need to change and are findings ways to embrace the solutions.\nVolunteer for events that help you engage with and enhance the urban environment like Clean Up Australia Day or National Tree Day.\nFind out what your local council\u2019s sustainability policy is and let them know what your community needs to become more resilient.",

        "raw_content": "Everyday Enviro with Elise - New life for old things\nThe Bower is a much loved reuse and repair cafe in Marrickville, Sydney\nWe are all familiar with the mantra \u2018reduce, reuse, recycle\u2019 which aims to change our consumption/waste habits. This week I want to talk about another important \u2018re-\u2019 and it fits in perfectly with that mantra: repair.\nOur society is often called the \u2018throw-away\u2019 society \u2013 and not just because what we buy isn\u2019t of a quality that will last a lifetime, but also because we have become used to getting rid of items that aren\u2019t working or looking like they did when we first got them. We used to have a different mindset, a sort of \u2018mend it or make do\u2019 mindset, one that now has a romantic, old-fashioned feel to it (I imagine darning socks by the fire, listening to the wireless) and there are many good reasons why this mindset is due (and is getting) a resurgence.\nThe reasons can be roughly grouped into three categories \u2013 environmental, cost, and personal benefit.\nWhen you dispose of an item and then replace it, there are significant environmental burdens at all stages of that process: for example, the disposal of the old product may mean adding to landfill and even if that item is recycled, there is an environmental burden in that process; the manufacture of the new product (and transporting it) results in increased carbon emissions, and potential ethical/labour issues in the manufacturing process and environmental issues in the extraction of raw materials.\nThis one doesn\u2019t really need much of an explanation \u2013 if you can avoid buying the product again, you will save money. Even if there are costs to repairing, there is likely to still be a cost saving. Having said that, there are certain items that aren\u2019t designed, or won\u2019t stand up, to repair. This is an especially good reason to live by the saying \u2018buy well, buy once\u2019 as it usually relates to items that made with a \u2018cradle-to-cradle\u2019 approach.\nPerhaps less tangible but still a definite benefit, is the personal satisfaction that comes from repairing. Knowing that you are getting every penny\u2019s worth from your purchase, knowing you have avoided the environmental issues associated with consumption, feels good. And this can be especially true if you DIY. You can take classes to hone your repairing skills \u2013 like Sydney Community College\u2019s Furniture Restoration course \u2013 but our favourite option is to visit The Bower Repair Caf\u00e9.\nThe Bower Repair Cafe\nThe Bower \u2013 the much loved reuse and repair centre in Marrickville \u2013 together with volunteers from the Marrickville Men\u2019s Shed, has a free weekly (& monthly in Parramatta) repair caf\u00e9 where you can take your broken item to be repaired by volunteer electricians, mechanics, and carpenters. The unique part of this is that the repair process is taught to you \u2013 you walk away with your item functioning again, new skills learnt, and time spent well. The perfect solution.\nRepairing things really is a no-brainer. Let\u2019s work to make fixing things the norm!",

        "raw_content": "Author(s): Ajay Agrawal; Joshua Gans; Avi Goldfarb\n\"What does AI mean for your business? Read this book to find out.\" (Hal Varian, Chief Economist, Google)\nArtificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible, magically bringing machines to life - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In the face of such uncertainty, many analysts either cower in fear or predict an impossibly sunny future.\nBut in Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.\nWhen AI is framed as cheap prediction, its extraordinary potential becomes clear: Prediction is at the heart of making decisions under uncertainty. Our businesses and personal lives are riddled with such decisions. Prediction tools increase productivity - operating machines, handling documents, communicating with customers. Uncertainty constrains strategy. Better prediction creates opportunities for new business structures and strategies to compete.\nThe accompanying reference guide is included as a PDF.\nAjay Agrawal is Professor of Strategic Management and Peter Munk Professor of Entrepreneurship at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management. He is also a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, cofounder of The Next 36 and Next AI, and founder of the Creative Destruction Lab.

He agreed that it would be \u201cadvantageous\u201d for firms to have a period of adjustment and time to restructure after a deal is struck with the European Union. \u201cOf course, on the surface yes, it\u2019s absolutely desirable,\u201d he told Channel 4 news. But even without a transitional period, \u201cpeople will adjust\u201d, Mr Carney said. \u201cIt\u2019s desirable. It\u2019s very much desirable from a European perspective in the financial sector.\n\u201cThe Government has to weight a whole host of issues for a whole host of industries, and determine its priorities, and only the Government can do that.\u201d\nHe told Channel 4 there has been \u201ca lost decade of growth\u201d for households which has fuelled anxiety across the UK.\n\u201cReal incomes in this country have not grown for the last 10 years. \u201cThat is incredible and shines a light on the inequality, inequalities that exist in this economy \u2026 That light also gets shone on the Bank of England, quite responsibly.\u201d\nBut the governor defended monetary policy in a speech at Liverpool John Moores University on Monday. He credited monetary policy for having helped create 2.5 million jobs, increase wages by 17% and raise real gross domestic product (GDP) by 15%.\nAnswering questions following his speech, the governor said he would not \u201cpretend to know exactly why people decided to vote\u201d for Brexit , but noted that alongside sovereignty and economic prospects, people seemed to feel they were \u201closing control\u201d.\n\u201c(What) most felt was a sense of losing control, taking back control \u2026 and it\u2019s felt because of those large forces of trade and this rapid shift in technology\u201d, which have added to job insecurities, he said.\n\u201cHow do you as a country \u2026 how do you equip people at a local level so that they\u2019ll be ready for those changes?\u201d\nMr Carney said governmental policies will be key in boosting UK prosperity.\nHe said: \u201cThe Chancellor\u2019s recent Autumn Statement begins the process of rebalancing policies.\n\u201cWhile fiscal prudence will continue, the degree of fiscal drag will be reduced somewhat, and major investments in the structural drivers of productivity.\u201d",

Pester had previously refused to say he would forego his bonus as a result of the problems and his handling of the aftermath.\nThe chief executive was to collect the payout for leading the integration of TSB with its Spanish parent company Sabadell but the bank\u2019s chairman confirmed to MPs on Wednesday that Pester \u201cwill not be taking his bonus for this integration\u201d, a decision he said was \u201cwholly appropriate\u201d.\nHe received \u00a32m for guiding the IT integration in 2016 but the bank held back a further \u00a32m in 2017 after costly delays to the project.\nThe chief executive and chairman, as well as chief operating officer Miquel Montes, were questioned before parliament\u2019s Treasury committee on Wednesday to explain how the problems had been allowed to happen, why customers were still experiencing problems and when they would be fixed.\nPester\u2019s responses failed to impress the committee with chair Nicky Morgan describing him as a \u201cstaggering example of a chief executive who seems unwilling to acknowledge the scale of the problem\u201d.\nEarlier, TSB customers complained on social media that they had been debited monthly fees for accounts they could not access. Later, Pester\u2019s reaction was termed arrogant by a number of social media users.\nThe chief executive told the committee that no group of customers had been locked out of their online accounts continuously for two weeks and instead likened the failure to a shop that is too small for the amount of customers.\nHe said that as of now the bank is at a point where its mobile app login success rates are at a level where they are expected to be.\nThe percentage of people logging in successfully is 95 per cent. Of course, that means 5 per cent are not logging in successfully but that is often the case for any bank.\nMeanwhile, many TSB\u2019s customers have already threatened to leave the bank.\nSome customers have already tried to switch their accounts but were told by other banks that this was not possible because of TSB\u2019s computer problems.\nThe TSB mess began at the start of last week after the bank shifted millions of customers\u2019 accounts from an IT system owned by Lloyds to one run by Sabadell.\nCustomers were supposed to be able to log in as normal from last Sunday but hundreds of thousands were unable to. Those who managed to log in found that some or all of their account details had disappeared. Customers also reported that they could access other people\u2019s accounts, including account numbers, sort codes and transaction histories.\nTurning ex-retail premises into residential property could boost High Streets in the UK",

        "raw_content": "The Messy Link Between Slave Owners and Modern Management\nanti-capitalist, Caitlin Rosenthal, history, Mississippi, slavery\nWhile studying the history of business practices, HBS researcher Caitlin Rosenthal made a startling discovery: Many of the techniques pioneered by slave owners in the 1800s are widely used in business management today. Rosenthal discusses her findings in this story by Katie Johnston, which first appeared on the HBS Working Knowledge website.\nCaitlin C. Rosenthal didn\u2019t intend to write a book about slavery. She set out to tackle something much more mundane: the history of business practices. But when she started researching account books from the mid-1800s, a period of major economic development during the rise of industrialization in the United States, Rosenthal stumbled across an unexpected source of innovation.\nRosenthal, a Harvard-Newcomen Fellow in business history at Harvard Business School, found that southern plantation owners kept complex and meticulous records, measuring the productivity of their slaves and carefully monitoring their profits\u2014often using even more sophisticated methods than manufacturers in the North. Several of the slave owners\u2019 practices, such as incentivizing workers (in this case, to get them to pick more cotton) and depreciating their worth through the years, are widely used in business management today.\nAs fascinating as her findings were, Rosenthal had some misgivings about their implications. She didn\u2019t want to be perceived as saying something positive about slavery. On the contrary, she sees her research as a critique of capitalism\u2014one that could broaden the understanding of today\u2019s business practices.\nThe work is part of her current book project, \u201cFrom Slavery to Scientific Management: Capitalism and Control in America, 1754-1911,\u201d and the forthcoming edited collection Slavery\u2019s Capitalism.\nThe evolution of modern management is usually associated with good old-fashioned intelligence and ingenuity\u2014\u201da glorious parade of inventions that goes from textile looms to the computer,\u201d Rosenthal says. But in reality, it\u2019s much messier than that. Capitalism is not just about the free market; it was also built on the backs of slaves who were literally the opposite of free.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a much bigger, more powerful question to ask, If today we are using management techniques that were also used on slave plantations,\u201d she says, \u201chow much more careful do we need to be? How much more do we need to think about our responsibility to people?\u201d\nAccording to Rosenthal, the history of detailed record-keeping on plantations goes back to at least the 1750s in Jamaica and Barbados. When wealthy slave owners in the West Indies started leaving others in charge of their plantations, she found, they asked for regular reports about how their businesses were faring. Some historians see this rise in absentee ownership as a sign of decline, but it is also among the first instances of the separation of ownership and management, Rosenthal says\u2014a landmark in the history of capitalism.\nSlave owners were able to collect data on their workforce in ways that other business owners couldn\u2019t because they had complete control over their workers. They didn\u2019t have to worry about turnover or recruiting new workers, and they could experiment with different tactics\u2014moving workers around and demanding higher levels of output, even monitoring what they ate and how long new mothers breastfed their babies. And the slaves had no recourse.\n\u201cIf you tried to do this with a northern laborer,\u201d Rosenthal says, \u201cthey\u2019d just quit.\u201d\nThe widespread adoption of these accounting techniques is partly due to a Mississippi planter and accountant named Thomas Affleck, who developed account books for plantation owners that allowed them to make sophisticated calculations and measure productivity in a standardized way.\nTracking this information allowed planters to determine how far they could push their workers to get the most profit. Using the account books, slave owners could see how many pounds of cotton each slave picked and compare it to their output from previous years\u2014and then create minimum picking requirements based on these calculations.\nThis led owners to experiment with ways of increasing the pace of labor, Rosenthal explains, such as holding contests with small cash prizes for those who picked the most cotton, and then requiring the winners to pick that much cotton from there on out. Slave narratives describe how others used the data to calculate punishment, meting out whippings according to how many pounds each picker fell short.\nSimilar incentive plans reappeared in early twentieth-century factories, with managers dangling the promise of cash rewards if their workers reached certain production levels.\nPlanters also used group incentives to encourage honesty, doling out a barrel of corn to each hand with the caveat that if anything was stolen from the farm and no one turned in the thief, double the value of that corn would be deducted from each of their Christmas awards. Collective penalties would later be adopted by salesmen and companies like Singer Sewing Company to encourage workers to police one another.\nRosenthal says the rise of the railroad is often credited with creating new units of production, including the cost per ton mile, but slavery\u2019s comparable \u201cbales per prime hand\u201d unit was developed earlier in the nineteenth century. Comparing the number of cotton bales that different types of workers produced to similar workers on other farms, planters calculated the worth of each slave. A healthy 30-year-old male, for instance, would be considered one worker, known as a hand, whereas a child may be recorded as half a hand, and an older slave might be three-quarters of a hand. Figuring out the total number of \u201chands\u201d on a farm allowed owners and overseers to compare their results.\nThe concept of depreciation is also credited to the railroad era, when railroad owners allocated the cost of their trains over time, but Rosenthal notes that slave owners were doing this before then. Starting in the late 1840s, Thomas Affleck\u2019s account books instructed planters to record depreciation or appreciation of slaves on their annual balance sheet. In 1861, for example, another Mississippi planter priced his 48-year-old foreman, Hercules, at $500; recorded the worth of Middleton, a 26-year-old top-producing field hand, at $1,500; and gave 9-month-old George Washington a value of $150. At the end of the year, he repeated this process, adjusting for changes in health and market prices, and the difference in price was recorded on the final balance sheet.\nThese account books played a role in reducing slaves to \u201chuman capital,\u201d Rosenthal says, allowing owners who were removed from day-to-day operations to see their slaves as assets, as interchangeable units of production in a ledger, instead of as people.\nRosenthal is aware that what started out as a straightforward history of business practices could become highly controversial, with some misconstruing her research as a kind of justification of slavery. Instead, she wants her research to inform managers and companies to become more aware of the complicated legacy of today\u2019s business practices and the origins of some their day-to-day management practices.\n\u201cI got into this because I followed my sources,\u201d Rosenthal says. \u201cI didn\u2019t mean to walk into this minefield.\u201d\nKatie Johnston is a writer based in Boston.\nmoorbey October 10, 2013 at 5:43 pm\nRed Nick October 12, 2013 at 3:43 am\nReblogged this on Democracy Lives in the Streets.",

        "raw_content": "Leonor's first official portrait\nIt's a birthday tradition that Spain's royals don't tend to follow as much as other European houses but this year they've made an exception. To mark her 12th birthday, Princess Leonor, heir to the throne, has a new portrait to celebrate. In fact, it's her first official portrait and it comes at a very interesting time indeed.\nLa Princesa de Asturias cumple los doce a\u00f1os estrenando retrato oficial. https://t.co/zx7XTD5Oav pic.twitter.com/XUckmFr22p\nThe image, taken on Spain's national day just a few weeks ago, has been shared on the official Casa Real website on the royal birthday. It's by Francisco Gomez and shows the girl who will be queen posing, relaxed and happy, at the Royal Palace in Madrid. It is released exactly twelve years after the arrival of the first child of King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia - Leonor was born on October 31st 2005 in Madrid.\nSo far, so very standard. But it's the timing that's really interesting about this portrait. Spain's royals have barely been seen in the weeks since the disputed independence referendum in Catalonia on October 1st 2017. Leonor's father, King Felipe, has cancelled several engagements in the past few days - a tumultuous time which has seen Catalonia declare independence and the Spanish government impose direct rule on the region ahead of new elections in December this year. No one was expecting this portrait of Leonor and yet, just when her Royal Family needs her, there she is smiling out in a portrait for the history books.\nTurning twelve is a big deal and so it may always have been the plan to release this image. But the last time that Spain's royals shared an official portrait of Leonor to mark her birthday was back in 2006 when she turned one. Then the photos also celebrated the news that her parents were expecting another baby. Now, this new picture comes as her family faces tough questions about its role and little chance of making any public appearances given the political situation. It's a good news stories for Spain's beleagured royals. Any first official portrait is always one for the history books but this photo really does have a special place in Spain's regal story.\nRoyal Birthdays Spanish Royalty",

        "raw_content": "RACE NOTES/QUOTES for DUAL 2 \u2013 Sunday, June 2, 2013\nJAKES EARNED HIS BEST SERIES FINISH WITH SECOND PLACE IN DUAL 2 OF THE CHEVROLET INDY DUALS IN DETROIT; RAHAL FINISHED NINTH\nGRAHAM RAHAL, No. 15 Midas / Big O Tires Dallara/Honda/Firestone: \u201cIt was a busy race. On the initial start I was the series punching bag; I got hit by about 10 guys and pushed backwards. And the car just didn\u2019t really come to me until a few laps in. Unfortunately it kept going yellow and we barely got any clear running. When we got up and running, we tried a different strategy to make up a little bit of time and initially it was working but with all of the yellows that came out, everybody ended up doing a similar sort of thing. By no means am I upset with where we finished but certainly this weekend has been a difficult weekend for all of us. James (Jakes) did a great job and we scored two top-10\u2019s but we need to find a better balance in our cars, not only here but the ovals and everything.\u201d\nFAST FACTS: He started 15th and drove to a 9th place finish today. He started 23rd in Dual 1, climbed 14 spots and finished 9th\u2026 He qualified seventh with Service Central Chip Ganassi Racing in 2012 but had a 10-grid penalty for an unapproved engine change and started 17. He was eighth when he made his final stop on Lap 45/60 but during the red flag stop to repair the track, a clutch problem surfaced and he was unable to continue and retired in 19th place. In 2008 he drove for Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing and progressed to the Firestone Fast Six in qualifying for the first time in his series career and qualified sixth. The team chose the same pit strategy as then race leader Dixon which almost worked but a late race fourth caution botched the plan and he had to stop for a splash of fuel with three laps to go and dropped to 13th\u2026 His best finish this season is second place in Long Beach and best start is 11th also in Long Beach\u2026 Is ranked 14th in series standings with 126 points.\nJAMES JAKES, No. 16 Acorn Stairlifts Dallara/Honda/Firestone: \u201cIt\u2019s huge. It\u2019s huge for a lot of people. The Rahal Letterman Lanigan guys have done a great job this weekend. This one is for Honda. Three Hondas on the podium in Detroit again. They\u2019ve really worked their butts off since Indy, and we\u2019re proud of them. The No. 16 Acorn Stairlifts-StemCyte car was just magical today. It was tough, obviously. In the beginning it wasn\u2019t going our way but we stayed patient and then we got a stint in the middle part of the race where we were able to push like hell and manage the lead. Thanks to the guys. They did a great job. We really struggled on the red tires yesterday and towards the end of this last stint we were struggling but we had enough pace at the start of it to pull a big enough gap. So big thanks to the Rahal/Letterman/Lanigan guys.\n(On the double header) \u201cIt\u2019s very tough. It has been a long weekend. But I\u2019d go again, I love this track. Starting 2nd and 3rd, you know, I\u2019d race here every weekend.\u201d\nFAST FACTS: Today was his best series start of second place and he earned his best series finish of second. His previous best was eighth in Toronto in 2012. On Friday he earned his best series qualifying position of fourth for Duel 1 and started third when pole sitter Franchitti served a 10-grid penalty for an unapproved engine change from Indy. He struggled with the handling of his car on the red alternate tires, drove into the runoff area which dropped him to 21st and ultimately finished 10th\u2026 He qualified 25th at Belle Isle last year with Dale Coyne Racing and had gained seven spots by Lap 14 before a problem surfaced and he retired in 23rd after mechanical failure\u2026 It is his third season in the IndyCar Series and first with RLL. In 31 Indy car starts with Dale Coyne Racing from 2011-2012, his best finish was eighth at Toronto and series-best start of eighth was at Motegi\u2026 His best start to date this season is 4th at Detroit and best finish is 12th at Long Beach although he had the potential to finish higher in each race\u2026 Is ranked 12th in series standings with 130 points.\nRAHAL LETTERMAN LANIGAN RACING IN DETROIT \u2026 The 2013 event marked the 14th year for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (RLL) to compete at the Raceway at Belle Isle Park. The team\u2019s highest start of second place and highest finish of first in the event came in the inaugural running on Belle Isle in 1992 by Bobby Rahal. Jakes matched the team\u2019s best starting spot of second for Duel 2 today and brought RLL their third podium here (2nd: James Jakes 2013, Max Papis 2000). In total, the team earned four top-five finishes and 10 top-10\u2019s here (chart available). Prior to 2013, the team prepared a total of 21 entries for drivers such as Bobby Rahal (1992-1998), Mike Groff (1993-94), Raul Boesel (1995), Bryan Herta (1996-99), Max Papis (1999-2001), Kenny Brack (2000-01), Ryan Hunter-Reay (2007-08) and Takuma Sato (2012). Last year Sato qualified 12th and was sixth when he hit a curb that wrenched the steering wheel from his hands and retired in 20th place after he hit the wall. The No. 15 Midas / Big O Tires entry for Graham Rahal and the No. 16 Acorn Stairlifts entry for James Jakes brought that total to 23 in 2013.\nNEXT UP: The series will return to action for the fourth consecutive weekend for the Firestone 550 at Texas Motor Speedway, June 7-8. Graham Rahal qualified third there last year, led 27 laps but brushed the wall with two laps to go and finished second. James Jakes earned his best oval finish to date there in 2012 of 10th place.",

        "raw_content": "Making Markets in Australian Agriculture\nMaking Markets in Australian Agriculture pp 1-36 | Cite as\nMaking Markets: Agricultural Restructuring in Australia\nPatrick O\u2019Keeffe\nIn this chapter, I analyse agricultural restructuring internationally and in Australia following the Second World War and describe the changing Australian wheat marketing policy in this context. Policy makers argued that the deregulation of the wheat export market would provide growers with freedom and choice in their marketing decisions, and would allow growers to extract premium prices from the market. This marked a significant policy shift away from the redistributive function of the Australian Wheat Board, which had been established to equalise returns among growers. I examine academic and governmental literature on wheat export marketing policy, which is dominated by the agricultural economics discipline. This research has focused on the question of whether liberalised markets or statutory marketing is best able to maximise growers\u2019 returns, to the exclusion of other important social, economic, and environmental issues, which have emerged in rural Australia in recent decades.\nAllen Consulting, (2000), The Wheat Marketing Act 1989 \u2013 The Economic Impact of Competitive Restrictions, Sydney: Allen Consulting Group.Google Scholar\nAlston, J., (1986), Consequences of deregulation in the Victorian egg industry, Review of marketing and agricultural economics, 54(1), pp. 33\u201343.Google Scholar\nAlston, M., (2012), Rural Male Suicide in Australia.

        "raw_content": "If you are a fan of the \u2018Real Housewives of Atlanta\u2019 series, then you know exactly who Kenya Moore is. But who is her husband? And is she really married at all?\nIf it isn\u2019t in the reality show, can it really be reality, right? She is a staple of the show at this point, but isn\u2019t keen on bringing her new man into the spotlight, and everyone is wondering why? A lot of people are even wondering if she ever got married at all.\nWe all know that scandals and surprises bring up the ratings, and this leads to a lot of questionable realities in our favourite reality television shows. How can you be sure that something is real, and not just a show for the cameras? And this is a pretty valid question for the like of Kenya Moore. She talked a lot on the show about getting married, dropping little hints everywhere like breadcrumbs we all loved eating up. Any news of the wedding had the internet talking, and this definitely did well for the show. But then, no onscreen wedding? The fans didn\u2019t get to see any of it?\nBut it\u2019s more than just being kept out of the loop for fans of the show, it also seems strangely out of character. You\u2019re on a show with the word \u2018Housewife\u2019 in the title, and you don\u2019t get married in front of the cameras? That sure seems a bit iffy.\nAnd not to mention the fact that it all happened so soon. In a mere matter of months, the couple were happily wed, which also left fans wondering if the whole thing were real or not at all. Why marry so quickly?\nWhy not get the shotgun wedding up on the screen and at least make some money out of it? Well it seems that Kenya is taking a very dignified root with this, stating that she wants to enjoy time with her husband that is just about them, and that he didn\u2019t sign up for the public life that she did.\nThis does seem fair, and a lot of the story does seem level headed enough, but there is just enough shadow there to still make you wonder. Should we demand to see a marriage certificate?\nKenya has not given anything away about her new husband appearing on the show in the future. She still says that they have never discussed it, but with the money that is ties up in that show, it is something you can only imagine was on both of their minds when and if they ever did tie the knot.\nUntil a marriage certificate is produced, and probably even after, there will still be some that call \u2018Fake!\u2019 on this relationship, or at least on the holy matrimony part, and some might think that that is fair. So, what have you decided? Is Kenya a REAL housewife of Atlanta?",

        "raw_content": "You are at:Home\u00bbFeatures\u00bb10 of the Most Famous Red Light Districts\n10 of the Most Famous Red Light Districts\nMost cities have an underbelly where the sex trade is active. We take a look at the 10 most famous red light districts from across the world.\nMost major cities around the world have some form of red light district whether they are publicly acknowledged and embraced or, more widely, swept under the carpet.\nOf course, some are more famous than others with many cities celebrating their adult industries.\nThe biggest and most famous red light district is probably De Wallen in Amsterdam but in this piece, we take you on a tour of the most famous ten red light districts.\nFrom Asia to North America, Europe to Oceania our guide gives you a run down on a bit of the history, what to expect and the kind of prices for full service.\nWe kick the list off with De Wallen in Amsterdam, the heart of the city and one of the world\u2019s most famous red-light districts. De Wallen (or The Wall) is so-called due to the fact that this area of the city was once surrounded by fortified earth walls.\nAs the city expanded, the walled area remained synonymous with prostitution and throughout the Netherlands, \u2018going to the wall\u2019 has become a euphemism for paying for sex.\nDe Wallen characterises Amsterdam like no other red-light district in any other city and is a sprawling collection of narrow alleys and streets lined with the iconic window girls; their red lights casting the city in a unique glow. Appearing at the beginning of the 20th century, these prostitutes rent window space from which they solicit business from the street.\nThe ultimate in a window shopping experience there are only about 300 windows left in Amsterdam but are well worth paying a visit to for this singular tourist experience.\n\u20ac50 will buy you a quick 15 minutes and is not the cheapest way of getting sex in Amsterdam but one for the bucket list.\nYou can find out more about the red light district in Amsterdam by visiting our Amsterdam Sex Scene network site including a guide to the Window Girls of Amsterdam.\nDe Wallen, Amsterdam; Probably the Best Red Light District in the World? Image via Flickr.\nHamburg, Germany\u200b\nKnown as the \u2018most sinful mile\u2019, the Reeperbahn in Hamburg incorporates several streets including Herbertstra\u00dfe (Herbert Street).\nStill barricaded from innocent eyes at both ends, the street is just 60m long and incorporates around 250 women working from windows like those in Amsterdam. As is typical with most red light districts, the area was historically situated close to the port and primarily serviced visiting mariners to the city.\nInterestingly, it was the Nazis who originally erected screens at the entrance to this area of the Reeperbahn believing it more practical to simply hide the problem of street prostitution than to eradicate it.\nPost-war, the authorities maintained this screening and even added warning signs in the seventies forbidding women and children to enter the area. The former were thought to be banned from the streets, not to protect their naivety but to prevent them from competing with the window girls.\nSex in the Reeperbahn is expensive as the rents for the windows are steep and you can expect to pay anything from \u20ac150 for full service with some guys reporting prices upwards of \u20ac300.\nYou can find out more about the Reeperbahn red-light area from our Berlin site.\nThe Reeperbahn area is a notorious red light district with a long history of prostitution. Image via Flickr.\nServicing locals and tourists, the Geylang area of Singapore is home to hundreds of brothels many of which are licensed and regulated but many more are not. The houses are easy to identify with their red door numbers.\nThe area is worked by many different Asian prostitutes who come to Geylang to work. Mostly Vietnamese, Thai and Indonesian there are very few Singaporeans who work as prostitutes.\nThe area is bright, colorful and vibrant with inviting houses and most are incredibly clean and well maintained.\nMany offer an open door, walk-up policy and if you don\u2019t like what you see then there isn\u2019t a problem with just carrying on down the road. You can also find some good bars where freelancing prostitutes can be found vying for trade.\nYou can expect to pay $50 (30 minutes) to $150 (60 minutes) at a licensed brothel but a lot less if you accidentally end up somewhere \u2018off-piste\u2019.\nThere is no mistaking the brothels in Geylang. Image via blemishedparadise on Flickr.\nSoi Cowboy, Patpong and Nana Plaza\nBangkok, Thailand\u200b\nNamed after the retired American airman who first opened a bar here in the 1970s, the Soi (side street) Cowboy red light area is one of several you can find in Bangkok but is perhaps the most lively and best known.\nLined with colorful go-go bars lit with neon signs, the area is foreigner friendly and hasn\u2019t been tainted with the seedier side of the brush that can sometimes be applied to other areas of the city.\nNowhere is entirely scam-free but Soi Cowboy is a friendly and laid-back area with plenty of choice, (mostly) fixed prices and a carnival atmosphere.\nThe Tilac bar has been in several films including The Hangover Part 2 and Bangkok Dangerous. It is rumored that Hugh Grant visited the bar whilst shooting Bridge Jones 2: The Edge of Reason.\nVibrant, colorful and with a party atmosphere, Soi Cowboy is a friendly red light area. Image via vasenka on Flickr.\nPatpong was built in 1946 initially with shophouses but became a popular R&R area for the US troops during the Vietnam War.\nBy the late 1960s the Patpong area had several nightclubs and rose to even greater prominence as an international sex capital during the 1970s and 1980s.\nWith sexually explicit shows, nude dancing and its lady boys, the areas reputation was cemented with the famous \u2018ping-pong\u2019 shows. The sex-trade in Patpong has declined in recent years but still remains a must visit area of the city.\nNana Plaza, the other famous Bangkok red light district is just a kilometre away and is home to the promising sign \u2018The World\u2019s Largest Adult Playground\u2019. Still a good place to visit, it is certainly the lesser of the three red light areas in the city.\nPrices in Bangkok range depending on how attractive the girl is and (depending on the area) how much she thinks you will pay. Expect to pay around $30 to $50 for short time \u2018bum-bum\u2019.\nThough largely now a touristy destination and more known as being home to some of London\u2019s historical gay clubs, Soho has the distinction (along with King\u2019s Cross) as being the British capital of the sex trade.\nThough the sex trade here is less explicit than in Amsterdam, there are plenty of places to get a good night out including full service. Home to Soho Walk-Ups (upper story studio flats used by prostitutes usually advertising their services as \u2018models\u2019 on the stairwell entrance), the area has been the heart of the city\u2019s sex trade for over 200 years.\nIn typical British fashion, the history of the area has a touch of elegance about it and in the mid twentieth century the advertising was more discreet; postcards alongside a red light indicated the services of a \u2018French Tutor\u2019 or \u2018Large Chest for Sale\u2019.\nThe area still has a couple of strip clubs and gentleman\u2019s clubs as well as walk ups, street prostitutes and some erotic massage parlors.\nYou can expect to pay around \u00a3100 to \u00a3150 for full service (approximately $130 to $200).\nA walk-up in soho advertising \u2018models\u2019\u2026come up and see me sometime. Image via Wikipedia.\nSituated in the Shinjuko area of Tokyo, Kabukich\u014d is home to many adult entertainment venues including hostess bars, love hotels and soap lands.\nNamed after a planned Kabuki theater intended to be built on the site in the 1940s, the building never came to fruition but the nickname remained.\nThe area was completely destroyed in 1945 during the series of air-raids undertaken by the US in the \u2018Night of the Black Snow\u2019. The area sprung from the ashes after the war with land being snapped up by the Chinese and redeveloped.\nThough it originally included large residential buildings, the main development was in the entertainment industry with cabaret bars and exclusive clubs. Since then, the area has grown to international renown and now houses over 3000 bars, massage parlors, hostess bars and love hotels.\nA big tourist hot spot, Kabukich\u014d is a colorful part of Tokyo with bright neon lights and a constant buzz of tourists and locals enjoying a night on the town. Caution is recommended with some venues not accepting foreigners (this is usually posted on the doors) and a small presence of the Yakuza active with some establishments.\nThe prices in Tokyo vary hugely depending on what kind of entertainment you are after. As sex is usually not on the menu (happy endings or a blow job are), expect to pay $30 for a blowjob at a pink salon. For more information on the blowjob bars of Japan, you can see our guide on our network site, Asia Sex Scene.\nThe place comes to life at night but Kabukicho has plenty of places to be titivated. Image via rahims on Flickr.\nPerhaps the largest and most famous red light district in North America, Zona Norte is a residential area primarily but is also home to commercial prostitution on a large scale.\nThe majority of working girls operate from strip clubs and bars that double as brothels but many freelance around the bars to pick up clients. Tijuana has a similar concept to the hostess bars of Japan with hookers frequenting \u2018lady bars\u2019 to be picked up and lavished with drinks for which a gent receives the pleasure of their \u2018company\u2019.\nProstitution is licensed in Zona Norte with working girls tolerated as long as they receive regular monthly health checks in exchange for a working permit.\nYou can find unlicensed prostitutes or street girls around much of the area who charge less. Attempts to force these women into brothels or legitimate places of business are largely unpopular in the city as they are viewed as part of Tijuana\u2019s cultural history.\nThe licensed brothels are checked regularly by the authorities and are popular with American tourists.\nCosts vary depending on where you are picking up but at a licensed brothel you can expect to pay $50-$70 plus a room charge of around $15.\nWith gentleman\u2019s clubs offering full service, Zona Norte is popular with US tourists. Image via pfsullivan_1056 on Flickr.\nThough the Rue Saint-Denis is probably a more active red light area in France\u2019s capital city, it is the Quartier Pigalle which is by far the more famous. Situated between the 9th and 18th arondissements, the Quartier Pigalle (or \u2018Pig Alley\u2019 as the allied troops referred to it during WWII) is home to both the Moulin Rouge and Divan du Monde.\nGetting a taste of the Paris of Picasso, Lautrec and van Gogh\u2019s times here can only be done in this famous red light district and experiencing the cabarets and nude dancing.\nProstitution is illegal in the city but you can find women around the Boulevard du Clichy Near Sacr\u00e9-C\u0153ur (Quartier Rouge). Also home to plenty of sex shops, the area isn\u2019t as romantic as the touristy parts of the capital and be warned that there is plenty of overcharging going on in the bars as well as with the hookers.\nThe area is quiet during the day but as soon as the sun goes down, the area becomes lively with bright neon lights. Touts and prostitutes will be out \u2018en masse\u2019 but beware of scams and rip-offs, it happens regularly to tourists.\nOne of the most iconic buildings in any red light district, Quartier Pigalle, Paris is home to the Moulin Rouge. Image via Flickr.\nHong Kong has a rich and colourful history with prostitution with Wan Chai being the jewel in the crown of the city\u2019s many red light districts.\nMade famous by the film, \u2018The World of Suzie Wong\u2019, Wan Chai is home to one woman brothels, KTVs and erotic massage parlours as well as street prostitutes and plenty of hostess bars.\nThough prostitution is legal, there are plenty of rules around it that are tightly controlled. As with many European countries, profiting from the trade in sex is illegal as is public advertising and soliciting. Whilst other cities simply make arrangements for \u2018love hotels\u2019, Hong Kong prostitutes simply rent single rooms in high rise, one-woman brothels.\nArranged like a block of flats, you can walk in off the street and browse each floor to find a woman of your choice. Girls who are available stand in the corridors or leave their doors open.\nFull sex here starts at around $200 and can go up as high as $1000 depending on the girl, the service and whether you are after anything kinky.\nMassage parlours are similar to any you would find in other cities and you can pay $30-$50 for a hand job with some masseuses offering full sex starting at $200.\nWan Chai is a busy area of the city and there are plenty of freelancing working girls who will tout in bars and clubs as well as on the street. Prices are lower than through other establishments but you will need to find a room.\nTo read up more about the Wan Chai red light district, you can visit our Asia Sex Scene site.\nThe range of bars and clubs in Wan Chai caters for all.

        "raw_content": "About the SDMX Global Registry (Release 3 - April 2015)\nWhat is the SDMX Global Registry (SGR)?\nIn 2011 the SDMX Sponsoring institutions launched the development of global Data Structure Definitions (DSDs) in order to support the world-wide technical implementation of the sixth edition of the Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual (BPM6) and the System of National Accounts 2008 (SNA2008).\nThe SGR is the technical infrastructure that supports this global initiative and, more generally, the implementation of SDMX, by making its metadata material, DSDs and related artefacts (concept schemes, metadata structure definitions, code lists, etc.), publicly and centrally available. The SGR can therefore be considered as the central reference point and authoritative source for SDMX global data structure definitions (DSDs), cross-domain concepts and code lists.\nIn addition to global SDMX metadata, the SGR contains other SDMX data structure definitions and artefacts that are used and maintained by national and international organisations.\nThe SGR is designed in such a way that it can be developed into a global portal for SDMX structural data and metadata, providing not only information about how statistical information is structured, but also where the related data can be accessed.\nWho should use the SDMX Global Registry (SGR)?\nThe SGR is an invaluable resource for any national or international agency that wants to use SDMX standards for data management or for exchanging data with other organisations using SDMX standard. For example, all SDMX artefacts related to the SDMX DSDs for global use (SNA2008 and BPM6) can be downloaded from the SGR in all versions of the SDMX standard. The SGR can also be a model for the organisation of statistical data exchanges and dissemination. It is possible for an institution to publish its own SDMX artefacts in the SGR as a contribution to the global implementation of SDMX.\nAny end-user of statistical data can access the data structures posted on the SGR, either global as BPM6 or SNA2008, or those maintained by national or international statistical organisations in order to understand how the corresponding data are structured, and what kind of statistical information (e.g. time series) can be found, for example, in the Balance of Payments BPM6.\nHow to use the SDMX Global Registry (SGR)?\nAll information published in the SGR is publicly available and freely viewable and downloadable. There is no need to log in to view or to download information.\nUsers can view the full content of the Global Registry, and see how the various objects are interlinked by using the Global Registry User Interface. They also have the option of \"monitoring\" SGR changes by means of the RSS feed that is available in the Global Registry User Interface. Help on the use of this interface is available in the Global Registry Wiki.",

        "raw_content": "Together, we are challenging status quo and starting a revolution to change the way people pack and move, by providing a more convenient, affordable, and environmentally friendly alternative to cardboard boxes.\nAndrew Androff \u2013 Founder & Co-Owner\nAndrew Androff is a serial entrepreneur, founder, and co-owner of Rental Crates.com, the first and only company to rent reusable plastic moving boxes to people and businesses moving throughout Metro Detroit.\nAndrew has dedicated his career to coming up with and executing ideas that improve a customer\u2019s move experience while uniquely differentiating his companies from the Moving Industry. His latest idea, Rental Crates.com is redefining the way people pack and move by offering an easier, cheaper, and eco-friendly alternative to cardboard boxes.\nAndrew believes that packing is a stressful enough task. People should not also be taxed with trying to figure out how many expensive cardboard boxes they need to purchase, only to be forced to waste an incredible amount of time and energy taping them all together before they can even start packing. Especially, when those same flimsy cardboard boxes often become crushed during a move and sent to the local landfill after only one use.\nClick Here To Read More About Andrew\nSo Andrew launched Rental Crates.com, where customers can order and rent plastic moving boxes right from their computer or mobile phone. No heavy thinking required, since the rental packages are pre-determined bundles of boxes based on the size of a customer\u2019s home or office. Best part, the Rental Crates are delivered right to your home or office. They arrive fully assembled and require no tape so customers can begin packing instantly. Once a customer is finished with them, they are picked-up, washed, and rented to the next customer, creating an incredibly environmentally efficient process.\nAndrew rose to prominence within the moving industry in the mid 2000\u2019s as the Co-Owner of Professional Movers.com for establishing an award winning customer service culture. His intelligent, friendly, and skilled movers were doing things so positively different that they were forever altering a customer\u2019s perception about moving for the better.\nBy simply creating strong emotional connections with his customers, delivering on every promise made to customers, and skillfully managing challenging situations by always doing the right thing, Andrew was awarded \u201cCustomer Service Hero\u201d Award by Corp! Magazine in 2008. One year later, his company was featured in a National Best Selling Customer Service Book, \u201cWho\u2019s Your Gladys\u201d where the entire 1st chapter was dedicated to sharing Professional Movers.com story of inspiring customer service practices.\nAndrew is a staunch supporter of the revitalization of Detroit. In 2011, he pioneered the Detroit Moving Incentives Program, a company wide initiative designed to patronize people and businesses who move to Detroit by providing them with specialized discounts and value-added moving services. The program was and continues to be, the first and only of its kind. It has proven to be tremendously well-received with hundreds of businesses and people successfully relocated to Detroit. Andrew was even featured on Opportunity Detroit Radio show twice to talk about the success of the program.\nThere has been 6 consecutive years of growth in people and businesses utilizing the Detroit Moving Incentive Program. The popularity in the program has resulted in a 17% increase in revenue and enabled Professional Movers.com to hire new team members, purchase new moving trucks, and invest in new technology. In 2012, Andrew opened a Professional Movers.com location in Downtown Detroit (inside Chrysler House, then later in 1001 Woodward) to better serve their emerging Detroit clientele.\nAndrew\u2019s favorite part of his job is the creative flexibility to take chances and find new ways to embrace change. In 2016, Andrew Co-Founded and launched Moving Calculator.com as a way to solve consumer\u2019s challenge of getting a quick ballpark price on the cost of moving without any hassle or sales pressure. So he and his team built an online widget that consumers can use as a research tool to learn estimated moving costs to relocate anywhere in the United States. In under 30 seconds and with incredible accuracy, thousands of people have been able to visit the Moving Calculator.com and begin to plan and budget for their potential move, all for free.\nAndrew graduated with honors with a Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Marketing from Oakland University and a Masters in Business from Wayne State University. He is a recent graduate of the Goldman Sachs 10K Small Business Program in Detroit where his business has been recognized in Crain\u2019s Detroit Business for achieving revenue and job growth post-graduation.

Today, Professional Movers.com boasts an impressive list of clients that include Fortune 500 companies, local celebrities, and government agencies.\nAndrew is a 2016 Oakland County Executive\u2019s Elite 40 Under 40 recipient for the work he and his team have accomplished in the Moving Industry and Community.

        "raw_content": "Chapman Fields, Downtown, Arkham,\nKindred are not to feed in this area without explicit permission.\nPatients at the Women's Health Care center are not to be troubled or molested.\nChapman Fields Shopping Center (Location) Edit\nAnchored by a Big Basket grocery store, this strip plaza contains nine shops (one currently vacant) that sell liquor, pizza, cheap shoes and clothing, greeting cards and other staples of modern material existence.\nKingsmouth Welcome Center (Streetwise 1 Site) Edit\nThis small office is operated by the Kingsmouth Chamber of Commerce and is located across from Independence Square, next to the Police Department. It's actually a 1920's era gray passenger bus (its wheels removed) converted to a small booth with a customer service window cut into one side, facing the road. The small destination sign above the driver's windshield atop the roof says \"Innsmouth.\" If asked about the sign, the friendly, ill-trained volunteer will not know anything about it. The Welcome Center caters to vacationers, day-trippers, and newcomers. Information and pamphlets on local attractions, shopping, and accommodations is available. Staffed exclusively by volunteers, it is often closed at inopportune times.\nKingsmouth Police Headquarters (Investigation 5, Larceny/Streetwise/Intimidation 3 Site) Edit\nThe police department moved from its original station on East Armitage Street to this gray, industrial looking building over twenty years ago. It reminds the viewer of 1930s German architecture. Large darkly tinted oval windows are set in uniformed rows on this three story concrete structure. These windows are not bulletproof. Arrestees are driven below the building directly into a holding area where other officers are on hand if assistance is needed. There are eight cells at the Arkham station: six are for adult males, and there is one each for adult female and juvenile detainees. Apprehended suspects are first taken to the booking office here at Kingsmouth Police Headquarters, read their rights, officially charged, and offered one phone call. They are held here only until they can be transported to Kingsmouth Jail for pre-trial hearings. Friday and Saturday nights often find the jail crowded with the drunk and disorderly, (much like the hospital).\nArkham Women's Health Care (Medicine 3/Empathy 2 Site) Edit\nSpecializing in health care for women, this medical office also quietly provides pregnancy terminations. It blends into a variety of adjacent buildings, totally anonymous behind an exterior of pine shingles and gypsum board straight out of the Seventies. Lights flood the parking lot and entrance through a heavy glass door. Access is only provided by way of a buzzer or swiped electronic pass, admitting access to a cozy foyer decorated by images of seascapes and a television usually tuned to the Food Network or the Travel Channel. Literature focuses exclusively on women's and children's health issues, and the compassionate nursing staff is efficient and capable. Most of the security measures are well-hidden for sake of the patients. A full suite of offices and exam rooms are tucked away behind the secured reception, labeled with many signs. Nearby Asbury Methodist Episcopal Church sporadically conducts protests on the sidewalk outside the clinic.\nArkham Public Library (Academics 3/Computers 1 Site) Edit\nArkham's Public Library received some of the impressive collection from Arkham University when that institution closed down. The library holds approximately 100,000 volumes and a thriving circulation of popular titles. A growing media collection rounds out the collection. The building was extensively refurbished and a spacious, sunny children\u2019s room added two years ago thanks to state grant funding. Weekly children\u2019s and seniors\u2019 events are held, as are talks and classes by local experts and interested persons. Hours are 11am to 7pm, Monday-Friday, and 10am to 2pm Saturday.\nArkham Courthouse Apartments (Housing, Resources ****+) Edit\nWith all Kingsmouth civil and criminal court proceedings now handled in Kingsport, and with a large, modern county correctional facility in Middleton, the old Arkham courthouse and jail were closed in the early 1980s. For years the old stone and brick structure sat abandoned, growing weeds behind a chain link fence before the property was purchased and transformed into stately apartments for upscale residents. The new sellers quietly lobbied and were granted permission to change the old street address from 666 to 667, and the old building formerly known as \u201cArkham Courthouse and Jail\u201d was rechristened \u201cArkham Courthouse Apartments,\u201d the \u201cjail\u201d part conveniently dropped. Today, these fine apartments are very expensive and very nice, in the heart of the old common district. A hired building representative (or unarmed security guard after hours) sits in the front lobby at all times. The hallways are wide and well-lit, with deep carpeting throughout; potted ferns soften corners. Shared facilities include mailroom, small workout gymnasium, elevator, common lounge (which can be requested for use by occupants holding the occasional larger gathering), and underground parking garage \u2013 very nice during harsh New England winters.\nKingsmouth City Hall (Investigation/Politics 4 Site) Edit\nCompletely rebuilt in 2008, the new four-story brick city hall is impressive, a model of civic pride. It is fiercely modern, all steel and glass and cool marble. There is a full-time mayor and six city councilors. They meet every other week, with the mayor being the tie-breaking vote. Any citizen can speak in front of the committee, if they call the city clerk and place their item on the agenda at least two business days before the meeting. City Hall houses the Building Department (building permits and business licenses; code regulations and zoning information); the Clerk's Department (dog, lottery and marriage licenses; registration of births and deaths; elections and voters lists; assessment rolls and by-law information); the Engineering Department (the design and construction of all roads, sidewalks, bridges and sewers. Maps and schematics of Arkham's sewers are stored here. Yellowing maps, some dating back two hundred years or more, are stored in the basement and show the oldest sewers -- many of which are long forgotten); the Public Works Department (maintenance of all parks and playgrounds, cemeteries, streets, sidewalks and sewers, traffic and street lights, garbage collection and snow clearing); the Finance Department (budgets, tenders and collection of municipal taxes); the Fire Department (the prevention and suppression of fires; the provision of emergency rescue services, fire prevention education and fire safety inspections); the Human Resources Department (employment, staff/labor relations, employee benefits, health and safety, staff training and development). the Parks Department (all matters relating to recreation and cultural services, parks, facilities and community centers); the Planning Department (planning policy and rezoning applications); and the Transit Department (operates the town's public transportation system and charters within Kingsmouth). Next to city hall stands two five-foot tall granite blocks; a reminder of the two Arkham residents who died on 9/11 as their plane crashed into the first tower. Massachusetts was home to many of the victims of that day. Each block carries a name: \"Pedro Argones\" on one, \"Jocelyn Masterson\" inscribed in the other.\nApollo Communication Services (Location) Edit\nApollo Communications is the main provider of telephone, broadband Internet, and cable television service in Kingsmouth. It's also a GenuCorp company. GenuCorp: the Genuine People Company. The most modern 911 emergency services are in use. All your local calls actually route through this single building. The multi-floor structure is little more than a striped box of plain, unadorned concrete and black, reflective windows, like some sort of squatting alien cube waiting to overtake the neighborhood in which it sits. Inside, banks of servers and machinery, customer service departments, records departments, and of course billing, pack every floor. Two armed guards on the front door, day and night, and one on the parking lot watch-house during the day, keep the place relatively safe. Although they do not actively monitor household or commercial accounts, the company will not hesitate to call local or federal authorities if they should detect or suspect illegal use of their Internet, telephone, or other services. Following federal guidelines, the FBI, NSA, or other large government intelligence or law enforcement agency can and will step in to discreetly monitor Comfast activity if they have cause to suspect criminal or terrorist activity.\nThe Common (Streetwise 1 Site) Edit\nDotted with huge oaks and elms, the Common is a large, square grassy area with benches and oversize granite flower planters. In the warmer months, Arkham's homeless sometimes make use of the benches as a place to sleep; as long as they do not bother the young mothers who use the common to sit and stroll with their children, they are left in peace. During inclement weather, the homeless use the nearby public library as shelter. The square is surrounded by a rusting iron fence, four feet high. The official entrance, a massive arch thought to have been designed by the Salem architect Samuel McIntyre, is found on the Peabody Avenue side, facing City Hall.\nTrolley Car (Possible Haven) Edit\nThis large wooden shed on the edge of Independence Square houses \u201cBessy,\u201d a 1911 trolley built by the St. Louis Car Company. Once home to the Arkham Trolley Company, now only Bessy remains. The trolley sat unattended, quietly rusting in the old shed for years, until the recent civic improvement project has refurbished both Bessy and the trolley shed with private donations. Now Bessy gleams like the day she rolled out of the production yard, although she is no longer in service. A short length of track allows Bessie\u2019s 45 foot, 8-inch length to roll forward out of her shed gates for special occasions, such as the Fourth of July, when holiday activities are in full swing in the Square.\nRetrieved from \"https://requiemforkingsmouth.fandom.com/wiki/Chapman_Fields?oldid=13380\"",

        "raw_content": "Field Theories with a Twist\nThis thesis deals with topological field theories derived from maximally supersymmetric gauge theories. The main part of this work is the three appended research papers, each of which investigates some different aspect of these theories. Leading up to these is the first part of the thesis which aims at introducing the above-mentioned concepts in such a fashion that the papers become legible to even those readers who are less familiar with notions such as topological field theory and N=4 Yang-Mills theory from the start. This introduction begins with the concept of symmetry, and both gauge- and supersymmetry are explained. This leads on to the introduction of maximally supersymmetric gauge theories, and then finally to outlining the possible ways to create topological field theories from these. The two last chapters of this thesis are dedicated to the theories featured in the appended papers. Papers I and II both deals with the geometric Langlands-twist of N=4 Yang-Mills theory and the five-dimensional analog of this. In paper I, spherically symmetric solutions to the localisation equations of both the four- and five-dimensional topological field theories are investigated, whereas paper II presents an explicit expression for the action of the five-dimensional theory. The final paper deals with a topological twisting of (2,0) theory, which was conjectured to be relevant in the understanding of the AGT-correspondence. However, this suggested twist is shown to not result in a topological field theory on a general background by showing that the stress-tensor of the theory cannot in general be both $Q$-exact and conserved.\nTopological Field Theories\nFasrummet\nOpponent: Johan K\u00e4llen\nOn the Localization Equations of Topologically Twisted N=4 Super Yang-Mills Theory in Five Dimensions\nExamensarbete p\u00e5 avancerad niv\u00e5\nFive-dimensional topologically twisted maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory\nJournal of High Energy Physics,; (2013)p. 1-14",

        "raw_content": "The relation between urban form, its density (aerial and accessible) and the distribution of functions\nMixed use development, one of the \u201cmantras in contemporary planning\u201d is a multi-criterion and multi-scalar concept which has various definitions. For this research mixed-use is defined as functional mixed-use and our main interest is to understand the spatial conditions needed to increase the diversity of uses (mix) by combining compatible functions. To analyse the compatibility of land uses and the importance of specific spatial conditions, the three most relevant factors of urban form are chosen: density, accessibility and mixed-use composition. The chosen factors are measured by methods of spacematrix, place syntax and MXI, using the city of Rotterdam (southern part) as case study. The three levels of analysis that are used are: (1) between all the urban blocks, (2) between mixed-use and mono-functional blocks, (3) within different types of mixed-use blocks. The results demonstrate interrelationships between the intensity of land uses on different scale levels. For example, residential density in a biking neighbourhood (radius 1.000) correlates to the density of commercial services in the same or a lower radius, but with of density of cultural and recreational services in a higher radius. In other words, cultural and recreational services need a larger catchment. Furthermore it is demonstrated that mixed-use blocks are denser and have higher accessibility to residential/work and commercial functions. Concerning mixed-use blocks, the results demonstrate a complementary behaviour between the existing functions within a mixed-use block and its surrounding. For instance, blocks with a bi-functional mix of housing and amenities are located in the vicinity of blocks with more work opportunities and blocks consisted of housing and working have a higher access to amenities in their surrounding. Identifying such spatial interrelations between land uses can be of great importance for urban planning and design. It can assist in the process of decision making by providing answers to the questions such as: If we want to create a city centre here, where should we improve accessibility then? Or, where should we, based on the existing distribution of shops, increase the residential density to use the existing potential best?\nPlace Syntax\nLand Use Compatibility\nBardia Mashhoodi\nProceedings of the 18th ISUF conference, Montreal",

        "raw_content": "Episode 5: One-Eyed Jacks\n\u201cThe only way to win is to not play.\u201d Amy (Rachel) offers that advice to Frank as One-Eyed Jacks opens. It is not the only prescient piece of advice she gives him. Frank, as the Punisher, often inserts himself into situations that are less than favorable.\nAmy, despite having been with Frank only a short while, understands this. She can see he has a self-destructive streak. That doesn\u2019t bother Frank; he welcomes the violence, and the odds never factor in for him because death is the ultimate end. One day, or another, Frank\u2019s fate will mirror that of his many victims. He\u2019s not going to run from that.\nThat thread carries the episode. As Amy and Frank further their mission to track down who murdered her friends, Frank inevitably encounters conflict. That fight, a knockdown drag out in a Russian gym, is the high point of the episode (It also features \u201cThe Dean of Mean\u201d Keith Jardine and one-time budding WWE superstar Vladimir Kozlov, which made me geek out).\nThe rest of the episode treads on the familiar themes that have persisted throughout this season. Each of these characters is flawed or damaged in some way. Madani, like Billy, is struggling to come to grips with what happened to her. Her actions have demonstrated that anxiety. In One-Eyed Jacks, it is illustrated further through her painful admissions at a group therapy session run by Frank\u2019s old friend, Curtis (Jason R. Moore).\nAs for Billy, the frayed nature of his psyche grows more fractured by the day. He\u2019s haunted by the cryptic dreams of what Frank did to him. He\u2019s unwell, a situation not aided by his weird psychiatrist. She\u2014and you could\u2019ve probably guessed this\u2014too has skeletons in her closet. Her work with him is unable to quell the rage that is bubbling within him. He\u2019s a ticking time bomb, and as One-Eyed Jacks alludes, he\u2019s planning and recruiting for the chaos to come.\nThe last major development of episode 5 involved the reassertion of Pilgrim, the stoic man of faith who deals in lead and scripture. After we\u2019re given a window into his masochism, Schultz once again comes knocking. The girl must be found. That request involves Pilgrim returning to New York, a place he refers to as \u201cunclean.\u201d What caused his distaste for the \u201cBig Apple\u201d is another secret yet to be unveiled.\nNow, Frank, Billy, and Pilgrim will all occupy the same space. What happens next is a foregone conclusion.\nOverall, One-Eyed Jacks was another solid outing for The Punisher, even if it tends to tread too much water. The glaring weakness is Amy. Aside from being Frank\u2019s personal Jiminy Cricket, it doesn\u2019t appear they know what to do with her character. She\u2019s just a foil, primarily an uninteresting one, and nothing we\u2019ve seen from her at all indicates why it matters so much to get her out of the picture.",

        "raw_content": "Asha Bhosle Praises The Good Lyrics And Wordings Of Pakistani Songs\nAsha Bhosle is an icon in India and all around the world where people listen to music from India and Pakistan. Asha Bhosle was in Germany recently where she was going to mesmerize the audience with her beautiful voice. Asha Bhosle talked to Express Tribune before her concert and in her interview she expressed frustration with the substandard lyrics of the songs that were being written in India nowadays.\nWhile the legend is not happy with the new songs being made in India she is happy that at least Pakistanis are making good songs. She said, \u201d Today, good lyrics and wordings only come out of Pakistan. People really know their Urdu there. Even though in India, there are many who know Urdu, they don\u2019t write it well.\u201d\nAsha Bhosle is a big fan of Pakistani music for many years now. She said, \u201cI have been listening to Ghulam Ali since the 50s. I am a big fan of his. I am also a very big fan of Mehdi Hasan. You see, I love songs, I love music and that is what I believe in. If the music is good, then everything is good. And then it is also ours, irrespective of where it comes from.\u201d\nAsha Bhosle had a few arguments with Atif Aslam when she was judging the talent show Sur Kshetra. Talking about that she said, \u201d Look, Runa Laila was on that show too and she is from Bangladesh. She is my friend. We were all laughing and joking around. Asking each other for advice. But that Aslam, I don\u2019t know, maybe he was taught by someone from the channel that he had to fight with me. Or maybe it\u2019s his nature, I don\u2019t know. Our own Himesh Reshammiya, the Gujarati, he was so quiet. But Aslam constantly tried to rile me up. And I have to say that it was wrong, I was never taking any sides. I also gave good marks to Pakistani singers. I am always only concerned with the singing. My religion is music and I never lie about that. A singer has no religion, but music. Whoever sings well, I will embrace him. So I don\u2019t get Aslam\u2019s behaviour. But I suspect someone from the channel told him to do it for ratings.\u201d\nAsha Bhosle is hopeful that one day people in India will realize what kind of songs they are listening to and singing and things will change.",

        "raw_content": "City of Riverside Awarded $3 Million in State Funds for Northside Neighborhood\nUrban Greening program will make possible land purchase, planting of trees, orchards, gardens\nRIVERSIDE, Calif. \u2013 The City of Riverside has been selected to receive a $3 million state grant to buy 7.58 acres of blighted land in the Northside neighborhood and plant 453 trees and shrubs, build trails, plant orchards and create a community garden to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase shade and reduce energy consumption.\nThe grant will preserve and enhance a total of 8.83 acres of open space on either side of Clark Street, roughly between Nash Street and Chase Road, north of Highway 60 and west of Interstate 215. The money for the Northside Heritage Meadows project was included in a recent $24.7 million Urban Greening funding process from the California Natural Resources Agency.\nThe agency evaluated 84 applications and recommended funding for 20 projects, which are funded by Cap-and-Trade revenues. The grants support projects that aim to reduce greenhouse gases by sequestering carbon, decreasing energy consumption and reducing vehicle miles traveled. The overall goal is to improve air quality and water quality.\n\u201cRiversiders are embracing active living and healthy eating, and these state funds will enable us to further those goals in the Northside,\u201d Mayor Rusty Bailey said. \u201cIt\u2019s very gratifying to see our city compete so effectively with others from across the state for these coveted funds.\u201d\nOther components of the project include:\nestablishing the Riverside Canal Trail to improve walkability and provide a safe route for pedestrians and cyclists. The new trail will connect to a new bike path on Nash Street, improving access to a bus stop at the intersection of Nash and Orange streets.\ninstalling an educational and interpretive nature trail on 900 Clark Street that also will serve as a wildlife habitat.\nrenovating an existing structure into a Cowork Learning Center with an outdoor pavilion to host a certified farmers\u2019 market.\nestablishing a 24-plot community garden.\ncreating community spaces for events, workshops, and education/workforce development opportunities delivered by project partners.\nThe project is consistent with the goals of preserving open space and fostering urban agriculture in the area. These goals have been voiced frequently by the Northside Improvement Association, Riverside\u2019s oldest community group, which has been a strong advocate of the grant effort.\nTree planting is designed to reduce the amount of particulate matter in the neighborhood that results from it being close to two major freeways and the 60/91/215 interchange. The trees also will provide shade for a new learning center, along project trails, and along the property border where there are homes.\nThe trails will connect surrounding residents to the site and provide safe travel routes between residences, schools, businesses, and parks. The community garden is expected to reduce vehicle trips to markets and increase access to local foods in an area that does not have easy access to grocery stores.\n\u201cOur staff is to be commended for bringing $3 million to our city through such a competitive, statewide process,\u201d Mayor Pro Tem Chuck Conder said. \u201cThese funds could have easily gone to another community, but we made the case for Riverside, and it paid off.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The main services provided in the RSSC are the Progressive Care Programme, domiciliary ventilation, specialist oxygen systems and the management of a wide range of both respiratory and non-respiratory sleep disorders. Information about the management of sleep disorders can be found in the Sleep Services area of the website, while information about the other Respiratory Support services we provide can be found below.\nThe Progressive Care Programme (invasive ventilation weaning programme) was initiated in 1992. Patients who are failing to wean from invasive ventilation despite optimal conventional therapy on Critical Care units are referred to this service. A multidisciplinary team approach is employed to optimise therapy, and non-invasive ventilation is often used to allow a graded withdrawal of invasive ventilatory support. The service has been cited as a model for the future provision of Critical Care step down programmes.\nDomiciliary ventilation is provided for patients with chronic respiratory failure due to conditions such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD - chronic bronchitis, emphysema and bronchiectasis), scoliosis, Motor Neurone Disease, Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome, muscular dystrophies, previous poliomyelitis and spinal cord injuries. Patients are assessed for their suitability for treatment, and long-term follow up is arranged for those started on ventilatory support. The RSSC currently cares for over 1,500 patients on ventilatory support in their own homes. The majority receive non-invasive ventilation but those requiring tracheostomy ventilation are also supported.\nThe RSSC provides a comprehensive assessment for all types of oxygen treatment, particularly portable systems for use outside the home and when oxygen is required in conjunction with home ventilatory support.\nIf you are a patient or visitor looking for general information about getting to Royal Papworth Hospital, hospital services, contact details, and referral information, please visit the Patient and Visitors area of the website.\nProgressive Care Programme (invasive ventilation weaning programme) \u00bb\nRespiratory research \u00bb",

So\u2026.\n*** Readers\u2019 Discretion is Advised ***\nOk\u2026 -sigh- I am in a pit\u2026 In a dark hole right now.. Probably it\u2019s the hardest moment of my whole journey and I don\u2019t even completely understand WHY!\nI don\u2019t know what happened\u2026 I don\u2019t know how it started\u2026 I\u2019ve been meaning to write about it here, to vent, to just try to express it all\u2026 with the hopes of making some sense of it and hopefully, once everything is out there I can actually move on\u2026\nAbout 2 weeks ago, I set a new goal for myself\u2026 I \u201creached\u201d my goal of losing 3 pounds in a month, I know it\u2019s not a lot, but those are my \u201crealistic\u201d goals, considering the thyroid issues\u2026 The day after I set my new goal I had already gained some of the weight back\u2026 I took it calmly, I knew it could happen, with a crazy thyroid it can happen\u2026 Then\u2026 my girls got sick\u2026. going out for a run at 5 in the morning was impossible when you have two girls crying and one of them is sleeping on top of you to get some comfort from the sniffles, etc\u2026 So I guess I lost some steam there, then I got sick and even when I wanted to still go run I just couldn\u2019t\u2026 it was too much\u2026 I think it was more of a sinus infection, I am not sure, but the headaches and pressure right between my eyes and lack of breath were horrible, so there goes some more steam, then once I felt better I actually had THE URGE to run\u2026 so I did\u2026 my friend and I went back to our morning routine and it felt great to be back\u2026 I didn\u2019t gain any additional weight when I didn\u2019t exercise, I was still watching closely what I ate and the calorie numbers\u2026 but then my family came to visit\u2026 My mom and sister are obese as I used to be\u2026 and I don\u2019t know what happened but something snapped in my trying to encourage and motivate (mainly my sister) to lose weight and exercise\u2026 it\u2019s like I was drained\u2026 how can that be? I guess I am still in no position to encourage anybody\u2026 who knows\u2026 4th of July was my dad\u2019s birthday and I made a cake for him\u2026 if you had seen me you would\u2019ve been proud\u2026 I didn\u2019t have cake\u2026 I watched closely what I ate and regardless of how late I went to bed I still went running in the morning\u2026 And then\u2026 I saw the scale say +1.3 pounds and then I saw it say +2.2 pounds\u2026 and I think the whole overwhelming feeling of trying to convince my sister to lose weight, the \u201cempathy\u201d I felt, the putting myself in her shoes and even going \u201cthere\u201d to talk about the horrible emotions of helplessness when you are obese and not seeing a way out\u2026 combined with the numbers on my scale saying I had gained weight regardless of all my efforts\u2026 brought me here\u2026 to the hole! It\u2019s been 3 days \u2026 3 days!!! I start my day right, I eat what I should and by the end of my day I\u2019ve eaten like I had been rescued from a desert island! -sigh-\nIt\u2019s so frustrating! I know it\u2019s all in my head\u2026 and I need to shake it all off\u2026 but I guess in my head I am still obese.. super obese\u2026 because as soon as I eat \u201csomething\u201d I shouldn\u2019t or more than I should\u2026 I go THERE\u2026 in my mind and even on the mirror I can\u2019t help but see a frustrated, defeated, huge human being that just CAN\u2019T do anything about it! And I know that\u2019s not really who I am \u2026 and I know that even my eyes are playing tricks on me because I am still far from being as obese as I was\u2026 I now should know, my eyes, my mind should know that I am way stronger than I give myself credit for\u2026 that I can overcome this and more!\nAnyway\u2026 Today I called my sister, who, seemed determined to \u201cchange her life\u201d \u2026 I just \u201calmost without any strength left in me\u201d asked a shy \u201chave you exercised, yet\u201d and she gave me some excuses\u2026 I couldn\u2019t even say anything else, I wasn\u2019t going to even try\u2026 I realize the best way I can help her is doing it myself\u2026 I can\u2019t convince her or force her into something that is so personal, the decision to BE FREE is individual and yes\u2026 sometimes we need help but we need to WANT IT and WANT IT BAD\u2026\nToday\u2026 Today will be different\u2026 I have to keep going.. no matter how far my goal seems I KNOW I CAN! I am thankful for the nudge I got via e-mail from my friend and mentor ShadowRun\u2026. I was already planning on writing here\u2026 I just didn\u2019t know where to start\u2026 her e-mail just \u201cmade it happen\u201d and for her, being there for me, putting up with me regardless of my ups and downs, I am THANKFUL! \u2013 Thank you all for reading\u2026 Thank you for being friends, support, encouragement\u2026\nPosted in Uncategorized, Weight related Issues\t| Tagged binging, bitterness, defeat, encouragement, frustration, indulging, obesity, overeating, personal struggles, struggles, victory, weight loss issues\nSo much for \u201cstill excited\u201d\n-sigh again-\nToday was \u201cweigh in day\u201d and I weighed 179 lbs\u2026 again??? REally? I mean\u2026 I did eat that pizza on Saturday\u2026 but gain about 3 pounds from last week? it\u2019s just insane! I hate it! I am doing stuff! I am tired of not being able to get out of this thing!\nI thought I would handle \u201cthe news\u201d well but I ate and ate\u2026 today\u2026 again\u2026 out of spite! And who am I hurting? well\u2026 myself\u2026 I know it\u2026 I don\u2019t plan on staying like this\u2026 I am actually going to run tomorrow morning with my friend\u2026 but really? REALLY? -sigh- I hate not being able to lose more! It seems impossible\u2026\nThe Desperate Lady\nPosted in Uncategorized\t| Tagged binging, disappointment, discouragement, excuses, frustration, Health, healthy-living, indulging, plateaus, spite, struggles\nPizza and stuff!\nHello everybody! Well\u2026 Saturday wasn\u2019t a great day\u2026 I had pizza, pizza and more pizza! LOL! \u2026 I was going to abstain myself from it but I just saw it and UGH! ate lots of it\u2026 I also had ice cream and some chips, lots of them\u2026 ehem\u2026 so\u2026 that was Saturday\u2026 But\u2026 on Saturday I also got my fitbit zip \u2026 I didn\u2019t get the FitBit One which is better and like the \u201cupgrade\u201d just because it is considerably more expensive and the main difference between the two is that it tracks my sleep\u2026 I don\u2019t need any device to tell me that I wake up too many times to check on my daughters and to go to the bathroom! LOL! I know that by myself! So \u2026 unfortunately my fitbit isn\u2019t working that great, the display is barely ever working\u2026 it just turns off and it won\u2019t turn back on even tapping it\u2026 First I thought it could be some \u201cenergy saving\u201d thing but I am getting very frustrated so I will change it\u2026 It is cool to see how many calories I burn during the day! And it is interesting to see that it suggests me to eat more than I do\u2026 When I\u2019ve seen the amount of calories other \u201cFitbit\u201d users are \u201callowed to eat\u201d I am always shocked! The numbers seem so high\u2026 I don\u2019t know what to make of that\u2026 I really feel I can ever leave the 1200-1400 range because I always seem to only be able to lose weight (very little by the way) in that range\u2026 so\u2026 we\u2019ll see \ud83d\ude42\nSunday was a great day and I did good (not great, just good) with my calories and closed my day at 1500 total calorie intake, did walk a little over my required 10,000 steps for the day \u2026 today I am working towards ending the day in a lower number for the calorie intake and trust me, it will be hard because I had more than enough calories for lunch!\nThat\u2019s it for now!

        "raw_content": "Home / Preseason / 5 Days Out: Stanislav Petrov\n5 Days Out: Stanislav Petrov\nThis series so far has been a list of things we\u2019re excited about\u2013 on-ice and off\u2013 for the new season. Today I wanna do something a little different. Today I want to introduce you to a man named Stanislav Petrov.\nThirty years ago, on September 26, 1983, Petrov was working on the Soviet nuclear missile defense program. His job was to monitor possible incoming attacks from the United States. If he detected an incoming attack, his job was to start the process for firing back at the US. Mutually Assured Destruction.\nThat night, Petrov\u2019s early-warning system said an American attack had been launched. Five intercontinental ballistic missiles were incoming. But instead of mindlessly doing his duty, Petrov used that rarest of human talents: doubt. He judged it to be a false alarm. He did not tap the big red \u041f\u0443\u0441\u043a button that would have begun \u201can irreversible chain reaction in a system geared to launch a counter-strike without human interference.\u201d\nSo the Russians did not fire back at the States. Petrov\u2019s false alarm was eventually confirmed. And then he was drummed out of the military for disobeying orders.\nI guess that has nothing to do with hockey, but it kind of has everything to do with hockey. Thirty years ago today, a normal guy made sure that world would spin another day just by using his noggin and his heart. That\u2019s worth remembering, I think.\nI was born that same day thirty years ago, so I think about this a lot. As Craig Ferguson might say, it was a triumph of intellect and romance over brute force and cynicism. Earth needs more of that.\nP.S. \u2013 My new album is now available. It\u2019s called Single Point of Failure, and you can download it for free. Thanks.\nnot hockey, stanislav petrov",

        "title": "Events: Systemic Risk (video) | Santa Fe Institute",
        "raw_content": "Systemic risk is a classic example of an emergent phenomenon. It occurs when, through their interactions with one another, individuals acting for their own purposes generate extreme behavior at a system-wide level. Such behavior is often difficult to anticipate based on the low-level behavior of the individuals. Ironically, in many cases each individual seeks to minimize his or her own risk, and the actions taken to do this collectively generate large risks at a systemic level.\nRecent events in financial markets provide a good illustration on many different levels. A combination of new, supposedly risk-reducing derivative products, excessive use of credit, and a classic speculative bubble, led to the deepest recession since the depression. Among underlying determinants of systemic risk, liquidity risk has been recognized to be among the most prevalent and pernicious risks facing financial markets and institutions in terms of their function and stability. Furthermore, liquidity risk, both fundamentally and in its manifestation, is an extremely complex phenomenon, which manifests itself in spread risk, counterparty risk and settlement risk, and thus has implications for credit risk and operational risk. The current crisis was further exacerbated by a tangled web of complex overlapping agreements and a general lack of transparency, which meant that no individual actor could easily collect the data to understand the potential systemic risks, much less understand them.\nThe SFI systemic risk initiative will seek to bring complex systems ideas to bear on the problem of systemic risk. While this initiative will focus on financial markets, it will also bring insights from many other disciplines, including ecology, epidemiology, and network theory. It will be comprised of academics, practitioners, and policymakers. The initiative will seek to apply concepts, principles, and methods from complexity sciences and an interdisciplinary approach to develop a useful framework for understanding systemic risk. On a large scale, the workshop will focus on the following areas and questions:\nConnectivity. What is the role of the increased complexity of the financial network (in terms of connectivity, nonlinear interactions and feedbacks, etc.) in determining the robustness of the system to exogenous or endogenous shocks? Which insight can we gain for other disciplines (ecology, epidemiology, archaeology) where networked agents are subjected to stress?\nAdaptation. Financial system is a complex adaptive system with bounded rational and partly informed agents. Feedbacks and behavioral biases strongly affect agent's response to systemic events. What is the role of adaptation in systemic risk?\nHomogeneity. What is the role of the increased homogeneity of the financial system (in terms, for example, of risk hedging strategies) in determining the fragility of the system. When is risk minimization at a local level beneficial to the risk minimization at the global (system) level? When is increased connectivity beneficial in dispersing risks?\nUncertainty, metrics, and data availability. What empirical knowledge of the financial system at a global level do we have? Which type of data should be made available to scholars and regulators to improve the understanding of the robustness and fragility of the financial system? Which information should be made available to market participants to improve their response to stress? Can we imagine a way of mapping the financial system? What are the proper metrics to quantify systemic risk?\nAll the above areas will be extremely relevant for understanding the role of regulators and policy makers in designing system rules able to minimize the susceptibility of the financial system to systemic crises.\nA complexity approach to systemic risk in financial markets would address issues of relevance for traditional notions of financial fragility applied to a system with increasing intermediation by large and/or complex non-bank financial institutions like hedge funds, broker-dealers, and government-sponsored enterprises. Specific practical implications related to the study of complexity issues related to systemic risk underlying financial markets would include:\nHow does interconnectivity and coordination influence price dynamics via network externalities?\nWhat is the role of large and complex non-bank financial intermediaries in modern financial markets, including their interactions with banks (and between banks) and the effect of these interactions on systemic risks?\nWhat is the appropriate role for institutional non-market mechanisms and how can market and non-market mechanisms be harmonized to address systemic risk?\nWhat is the ability of investors and regulators to observe and quantify risk?\nWhat is the potential role for regulation, public policies, market mechanisms, and financial innovation to reduce (or increase) systemic risks?\nHow do leverage, funding, and asset liquidity relate to systemic risk?\nWhat are the determinants of liquidity and the role of liquidity in maintaining financial system stability?\nWhat are the systemic implications of trends in industry practice, such as clearing and settlement systems and market-risk management techniques?\nWhat is the structure and mechanics of debt and equity securities markets, including related derivatives markets?\nWhat is the relationship between real options and systemic risk, and what can and do market mechanisms serve?\nHow does one measure \u201ctoo big to fail\u201d versus \u201ctoo interconnected to fail\u201d?\nThe purpose of the initiative is to establish, explore, and promote a common framework and approach for analyzing and addressing issues of systemic risk within the real economy and the financial markets, based upon complexity science approaches to dynamic and adaptive economic systems; in particular, the study of economic and market phenomena related to externalities, state- and path- dependence, feedback loops, nonlinearities, interdependence which manifest themselves as observed episodic liquidity and contagion effects, information cascades, runs, bubbles, and crashes. Of particular interest are methods that include (but are not limited to) social network analysis, agent-based computational modeling, and (extensive-form) evolutionary game theory to institutional structure/dynamics and market microstructure.\nMorten L.

        "raw_content": "Brain Wave, Freelancing and Self-Employment, Self-Care Corner\nBeing able to work from home can bring with it some great flexibility and the freedom to do things as and when you need to. You\u2019re only accountable to yourself, and you decide your workload and the hours that you work. But with that freedom, comes some responsibility; you may be accountable to only you about your work, but also about your health. In an office, an employer is required to adhere to certain guidelines to make sure that you\u2019re working in a healthy and safe environment. But when you\u2019re working at home and by yourself, the only person that will be telling you to take a break or get a new desk chair is you. So what can you to do be more accountable for your health when you\u2019re self-employed? Here are some of the ways you can take better care of yourself.\nAssess Your Desk\nHopefully you have a desk or an office space that you work in at home. You should check the space out and see what you can be doing to make sure that it is a comfortable and safe space. Is your desk chair up to scratch? Is it adjustable and movable? If it isn\u2019t, then it could be worth looking to invest in a new one. Have you got a footrest or somewhere for your wrists to avoid things like repetitive strain? All of these kind of thing can make a difference to your health and posture overall, and stop you getting aches and pains when you\u2019re doing your work.\nAs well as the environment that you\u2019re in, your own health can have an impact on how well you\u2019re able to work. And at the end of the day, as a freelancer, you\u2019re likely to not get paid unless you are working. So it pays to stay well; literally. So think about regular exercise breaks to take a walk or go to the gym. Think about what you\u2019re eating and drinking; it can be hard to get up early and do work if you\u2019re hungover or feel so lethargic from eating sugar-filled foods. You could also look to purchase health care products online like a blood pressure monitor or a mattress that could help you sleep better. Be proactive and you\u2019re likely to deal with any issues before they actually crop up.\nBanish Loneliness\nWorking freelance can be very rewarding. But sometimes your only contact with someone else during the day can be the mailman! So it can be a pretty lonely place, especially if you work online and deal with people via emails. So in order for it to not impact your mental health, you need to think about what you can do to tackle it. It could mean that you decide to schedule conference calls or Skype calls rather than email. You could work from a coffee shop once a week or even hire a desk in an office. Just do what you need to do to banish that feeling of loneliness.\nWhen you run a small business, it is important that you do everything you can to make sure that you are protected. You also have to make sure that everything runs smoothly so that you can avoid a lawsuit as well. All of this can be incredibly difficult when you have so much to think about on a day to day basis, but with a little bit of help and support, you can give your small business the protection it needs.\nYour business is all about your image and you have to make sure that you avoid making any announcements that may be seen as being questionable. You also have to try and avoid things like slandering your customers and even dealing with other individuals who may be seen as being questionable as well. Of course, if you know that your business is not big enough to be worrying about this then you couldn\u2019t be more wrong. Even the smallest businesses run into issues like this now and again. To avoid stress, you need to make sure that you are focused on how your social media presence could affect you and even how you can change your attitude.\nAs a business owner, you need to make sure that you interview an attorney. Even if you don\u2019t think you\u2019ll need one, it\u2019s important to have someone that you can go to when you need advice because if you are being sued then the last thing that you need is to try and hire someone in a hurry. If you are concerned that you can\u2019t afford to hire an attorney right now then think about the expense that you will have to go through when you are actually being sued.\nAlways Back up Files\nA lot of people that work from home don\u2019t think that they have to backup their files and they also believe that they don\u2019t have to spend time worrying about cybercriminals as well. This is not true at all and when you run a small business, you are just as likely to have your details stolen when compared to someone who runs an office down the road. For this reason, if you want to avoid all of this then you have to make sure that your files are protected and that you have copies of absolutely everything. If you want to secure your data with Infrascale then this is more than possible for you to do.\nDon\u2019t Hire Friends or Family\nWhen you run a business, it can be hard for you to turn away friends and family for a job, but it will be even harder for you to turn them away when you have to fire them or even if you cannot afford to pay them one month. For this reason, you have to do everything you can to make sure that you hire people who you know you can trust as well as hiring people who you know have the right experience and the right knowledge to get the job done.",

        "title": "Iron Fist May Wear Classic Costume After Defenders | ScreenRant",
        "raw_content": "Iron Fist Wearing Classic Costume 'Will Feel Right' After Defenders\nAccording to star Finn Jones, we may see Iron Fist finally get his comic book costume by the end of The Defenders. While Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage were all met with acclaim from fans and critics, Iron Fist left many divided. And while the reasons for that can be - and have been - debated ad nauseam, one thing that really bothered comic readers was the absence of Iron Fist's iconic costume. With next month's The Defenders finally bringing the various street-level Marvel characters together, could we see their ascension to superhero status marked by more comic appropriate attire?\nDespite word that news on Iron Fist's second season would arrive soon back in May, we haven't heard anything about the character moving forward. Jones has said a potential season 2 could reveal the character's costume, but we're still waiting to see if that will even happen. In the meantime, Danny Rand looks to be doing some growing as a hero in The Defenders. Given that, it makes sense that the show could end with not only a reveal of Iron Fist's future as a show, but a hint as to the evolution of the character.\nRelated: Iron Fist Still \u2018Growing\u2019 Into a Hero\nDen of Geek spoke with Finn Jones about Danny's journey in The Defenders, and he indicated that the growth of the character in the mini-series will finally give Iron Fist a reason to don the costume.\n\u201cThe thing with all of these shows is not that we're shy to bring the costumes. It's that we want them to feel authentic when it does happen. Danny's on this journey to understanding what his responsibility is. And throughout all of [Iron Fist] season 1, he was in no state of mind to put a suit on. That would've been ridiculous because he was not fully accomplished as the Iron Fist yet and he certainly didn\u2019t have the right or the responsibility to be putting on a superhero costume. He needs to work his sh-t out. And certainly by the end of The Defenders, it will feel right.\u201d\nAs Jones points out, it's not as if the shows are avoiding costumes. While JJ and Luke wear street clothes, this is pretty much in line with how they've appeared in the comics for years. Daredevil, however, was fully suited up by the end of his show's first season. Given that, it makes sense that the more mature version of Danny we see by the end of The Defenders will be ready to take on a more colorful persona.\n\u201cAt the end of Iron Fist, [Danny] doesn't even know what a superhero is. So then to suddenly be interacting with these three... [They] really make him kind of wise up and come to terms with his responsibilities a lot more. From the beginning where we see Danny in Iron Fist to where he ends up in The Defenders, he has made that complete origin arc. He has shed his immature self. The idea is, in The Defenders, he has in a sense become the Iron Fist.\u201d\nWith The Defenders panel happening during Comic-Con this weekend, we should learn a lot more about the show within the next few days. Meanwhile, marketing will continue to shine light on the upcoming series as we head toward its premiere in a few weeks. By this time next month, we may even know the fate of Iron Fist's costume. In the meantime, there's always the comics.\nNext: How the Avengers and Defenders Could Crossover\nThe Defenders will debut August 18 on Netflix.\nTags: the defenders, iron fist",

Robbie plays Harley Quinn in the DC flick, and while Suicide Squad itself wasn't the smash hit that everyone was hoping for, Robbie's Quinn was a huge success.

While not all of these movies will definitely make it to the big screen, it has also been confirmed that Robbie will return this year in some shape or form.\nUnsurprisingly, her success as Harley Quinn coupled with the huge variety of possibilities for the character in the DCEU, mean that Robbie is asked about her role as Daddy's Little Monster in every interview that she does right now. In a new interview with Jake Gyllenhaal, Robbie has now revealed why she actually took on the part in the first place (other than an interest in playing such a crazy character, of course).\nRelated: Margot Robbie Developing 'Separate' Harley Quinn Movie\nThe interview, part of Variety's 'Actors On Actors' series, sees Robbie discussing what she loves about playing Harley, as well as why she took the role in the first place - because she is such a fan of director David Ayer's End Of Watch.\nIt just occurred to me, we've both worked with David Ayer. End of Watch, by the way, was one of my favorite films and the reason I signed on for Suicide Squad was because I love End of Watch so much and I saw it about four times at the cinema.\nGyllenhaal, of course, starred in End Of Watch as Brian Taylor, one of two rookie cops in LA. Ayer wrote and directed End of Watch, and Fury, going on to work on Sabotage and between then and his time with the DCEU for Suicide Squad.\nObviously, Robbie will have had multiple reasons for taking on a project like Suicide Squad, not just her love of a single film with the same director. The chance to play an iconic comic character and be part of the superhero genre is not one that many actors would pass up... not to mention the paycheck that comes with a big-budget film like Suicide Squad! However, it's fantastic to hear that not only was she already a fan of Ayer's, but that she's enough of a movie geek to go see the same film multiple times in theaters.\nNext: Suicide Squad Director Regrets Not Making Joker The Main Villain",

Given that in the first part of the league season, Poltava nicked points off you.\n- Yes, they are the team that we always find tough to play. With the return of cup ties and the league games, we need to be most careful to avoid any unpleasant surprises in store for us.\n- You have repeatedly met with Vorskla. What are this team's strengths?\n- Vorskla have a lot of physically strong players, the team play very well defensively. I am sure that the game will be very difficult, we are facing a real battle. But we must win.\n- After a confident Europa League victory over Schalke 04, won\u2019t you have motivation issues in the Ukrainian Cup game?\n- The cup, just as the league, is important to us. Therefore we are motivated enough. Of course, the match in Gelsenkirchen pleased us very much, with the victory becoming a kind of moral prize for the excellent work we did. Just like now: we need to work hard to achieve a positive result.\n- Probably Vorskla will focus mainly on defence. Given the tough previous league match against them, what should Shakhtar focus upon?\n- We are used to the fact that the opponents just drop deep. We\u2019ll wait for counterattacks. It is important to be focused and attentive in every episode, because any of them could be the key one. The major thing for us is retaining the ball and trying to score an early goal. I think this will facilitate the general task.\n- Several key players have left Vorskla this winter: Tursunov, Yanuzi... At the same time, the talented Dovhyi and Kolomoets joined the ranks of Poltava team, with the experienced Pavlo Habelok rejoining the team. How will this shift the balance?\n- Let's just say that it\u2019s hard to lose any players. But experience proves that there is always someone to replace the guys to have left. At Shakhtar, for example, the same thing happens. But this fact does not weaken our team in any sense. We should take into account the ambitions of Poltava, at the same time being even more ambitious than they are.",

        "title": "The Intriguing George Canning | Shannon Selin",
        "raw_content": "George Canning by Richard Evans\nGeorge Canning, who appears as Britain\u2019s foreign secretary in Napoleon in America, was a clever, ambitious and controversial politician who held important government posts during the Napoleonic Wars and aftermath. He later became the country\u2019s shortest-serving prime minister. A skilful propagandist, Canning promoted the scathing caricatures of Napoleon that appeared in Britain at the time. In 1809 George Canning fought a duel with the war secretary, Lord Castlereagh, which severely damaged his career.\nGeorge Canning was born on April 11, 1770, in London. His father (also named George) was an impoverished Irish barrister who died on his son\u2019s first birthday. To support herself and her toddler, Canning\u2019s mother, Mary Ann Costello, became an actress. After an unsuccessful London debut, she took work in provincial theatres.\nMary Ann may or may not have married a disreputable actor and theatre manager named Samuel Reddish. In any case, she bore him five children, including two sets of twins. When Reddish became insane, Mary Ann married another actor and had five more children. By this time young George Canning had been made the ward of a wealthy uncle. He was sent to Eton College and Christ Church, Oxford. Canning was acutely aware of his modest beginnings and his mother\u2019s lack of fitness for respectable society. Surrounded by the sons of the aristocracy, he sought to prove himself their equal or better. Canning was an exact contemporary and classmate of Robert Banks Jenkinson, who \u2013 as Lord Liverpool \u2013 in 1812 became Britain\u2019s prime minister.\nThough George Canning lacked Liverpool\u2019s breeding, he too had political ambitions and the brains to see them fulfilled. Trained as a lawyer, he became a Member of Parliament at the age of 23, under the patronage of Tory Prime Minister William Pitt the Younger. A skilled orator and writer, Canning gained influence within Pitt\u2019s camp and rose rapidly.\nSkewering Napoleon\nIn 1795, George Canning received his first ministerial appointment as Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs. A master of propaganda, Canning \u2013 through a friend \u2013 struck up an arrangement with the premier British political satirist of the time, James Gillray. In 1797 Canning arranged for Gillray to receive a secret government pension. In return, Gillray was asked to tone down his attacks on Pitt and King George III and concentrate instead on vilifying the radical opposition and the French. Gillray worked closely with Canning and his friends, who fed him ideas and text for his caricatures. Several of these appeared in The Anti-Jacobin, or Weekly Examiner, founded by Canning. Though the periodical lasted less than a year, the link between Gillray and Canning persisted until 1809. Gillray helped to create the popular British stereotype of \u201cLittle Boney,\u201d a spoiled child in oversized boots and military hat, prone to frantic rages. (1)\nBritish Tars, towing the Danish Fleet into Harbour; the Broadbottom Leviathan trying to swamp Billy\u2019s old-Boat, & the little Corsican tottering on the Clouds of Ambition. Caricature by James Gillray, 1807. George Canning, roguish and alert, sits and tows. Napoleon dances over the flames in a thwarted rage.\nDuring the Napoleonic Wars, George Canning served as Paymaster of the Forces (1800-1801), Treasurer of the Navy (1804-1806) and Foreign Secretary (1807-1809). In this last capacity he feuded with the Secretary of State for War and the Colonies, Lord Castlereagh, over the Walcheren expedition, which Canning saw as a hopeless diversion of troops from the Peninsular War. When Castlereagh learned that Canning was plotting to have him dismissed from the government, he challenged Canning to a duel. The two men faced each other at dawn on September 21, 1809 on Putney Heath. Canning had never before fired a pistol. Castlereagh wounded him in the thigh. King George III was furious that his ministers \u201cstill in possession of the seals of office, should have been guilty of so total a dereliction of duty as to violate the laws which they were bound to maintain.\u201d (2)\nKilling no Murder, or a New Ministerial way of settling the affairs of the Nation! Caricature by Isaac Cruikshank of the 1809 duel between Lord Castlereagh (left) and George Canning (right).\nThough both men had to resign, Canning was generally blamed for what had happened. He remained out of office for the next several years. When Liverpool became prime minister in 1812, he offered Canning the post of foreign secretary. Canning declined, because he also wanted the position of leader of the House of Commons. This was held by Castlereagh. Instead, Canning accepted a diplomatic appointment to Portugal. He tried to persuade the Portuguese to provide troops for the anti-Napoleonic alliance. (See the British Library\u2019s Untold Lives blog for Canning\u2019s letters about this, and about the death of his cousin, Charles Fox Canning, in the 1815 Battle of Waterloo.)\nUpon returning to Britain in 1816, Canning became president of the Board of Control (the India Office of the period). In 1820, he resigned, ostensibly over King George IV\u2019s attempt to divorce Queen Caroline, to whom Canning had been a friend, advisor and possibly lover, but also because he was out of sympathy with the government\u2019s policies regarding Europe. He also, perhaps, did not want to be associated with an unpopular government.\nGeorge Canning was a brilliant orator in the House of Commons and Liverpool wanted him back in the Cabinet. In June 1821, Liverpool tried to offer the Admiralty or the Home Office to Canning, but King George IV refused. Instead, the king supported efforts to have Canning appointed Governor-General of India to get him out of the way. However, on August 12, 1822, Castlereagh \u2013 who was then foreign secretary \u2013 committed suicide. One month later Canning became the new foreign secretary and leader of the House of Commons, despite the King\u2019s objections. The Duke of Wellington, who disliked Canning, used his influence with the King to induce him to tolerate the appointment. A letter to Austrian Foreign Minister Clemens von Metternich from Dorothea Lieven, the wife of the Russian ambassador to Britain, gives a sense of the Machiavellian considerations that went into Canning\u2019s appointment:\nThis is what Wellington thinks. The Government need Canning in the House of Commons, and their supporters have threatened to withdraw their votes if he is not appointed. The Ministers know him for an intriguer; but, if they offer him an important position, they deprive his intriguing spirit of its object. He will have reached the pinnacle of success and will be obliged to do everything in his power to remain there and, consequently, to support his colleagues. \u2026 If he makes difficulties, they will send him packing\u2026and both the Canning faction, and the whole body of members who are now asking for his appointment, would no longer have the right to complain, since they could blame no-one for the failure but Canning himself\u2026.. The Opposition hates him, the King loathes him; the Ministers distrust him; those who want him do not like him. His personal following is a mere drop in the ocean; and, with that exception, there is not a soul in the United Kingdom who has the slightest respect for him. In spite of all these reasons for keeping him out, public opinion demands him; and he will receive the most important post in the Government. (3)\nThree days later, Dorothea wrote that Canning was dissatisfied with the King\u2019s grudging letter offering him the Foreign Office.\n[Canning] declares that it is exactly the same as being given a ticket for Almack\u2019s and finding written on the back, \u2018Admit the rogue.\u2019 \u2026 No change in the Cabinet has ever interested the public so much. (4)\nThough Canning was a Tory, his foreign policy alarmed his conservative colleagues. Unlike his predecessor, Canning objected to the European congresses that had presided over Europe since the fall of Napoleon. He thought the\nsystem of periodical meetings of the four great Powers, with a view to the general concerns of Europe, \u2026 of very questionable policy; that it will necessarily involve us deeply in all the politics of the Continent, whereas our true policy has always been not to interfere except in great emergencies and then with a commanding force; \u2026 that all other States must protest against such an attempt to place them under subjection; that the meetings may become a scene of cabal and intrigue; and that the people of this country may be taught to look with great jealousy for their liberties, if our Court is engaged in meetings with great despotic monarchs, deliberating upon what degree of revolutionary spirit may endanger the public security, and therefore require the interference of the Alliance. (5)\nAfter the 1822 Congress of Verona, Britain declined to take part in any further European Congresses. Canning boasted that he had broken up the Congress system and thereby frustrated the ambitions of the continental powers. Wellington thought that Canning was trying to destroy the alliance on which the peace of Europe depended.\nAs is clear when Canning spars with Wellington at Dorothea Lieven\u2019s dinner party in Napoleon in America, Canning opposed the 1823 French invasion of Spain. He was also determined to keep France out of Spain\u2019s Latin American colonies, which had revolted against Spanish rule. Canning argued that the best security against France taking over Spain\u2019s colonies was for Britain to recognize their independence. This involved him in major arguments with his colleagues, most of whom did not want to go that far. Cabinet gave in only when Canning threatened to resign if the new republics were not recognized.\nCanning in private life\nOn July 8, 1800, George Canning married an intelligent and spirited woman named Joan Scott. She came with aristocratic relations and a fortune of some hundred thousand pounds, which should have put to rest Canning\u2019s fears about finances and fitness for high society. Still, he did not allow his mother to meet his wife until 1804, by which time he and Joan had three children: George (born in 1801), William (1802) and Harriet (1804). Their fourth child, Charles, was born in 1812.\nDespite Canning\u2019s stellar reputation as a public speaker, he did not always come off well in private company. In January 1820, Countess Granville wrote:\nMr. Canning comes Wednesday and I hope he will be a degree less flat than he usually is, for, agreeable as he can be, he is much the most difficult person to get on with when he is not at his very best. (6)\nDorothea Lieven told Metternich that Canning \u201cis one of those men who always kill any conversation. You have continually to begin again; and I get bored.\u201d (7)\nDorothea changed her tune in 1825, when Russia shifted away from Austria over the Greek question. She dropped her alliances with Metternich and Wellington, and began entertaining Canning every Sunday afternoon. She then found Canning to be\nan extraordinary character. One might suppose, from the vivacity of his impressions and the rapidity of his mind, that he would take things up and then drop them, that his opinions would be changeable; but this is not so. He proceeds by leaps and bounds, but always along the same road. He will do foolish things, but they will never make him turn aside from the path he has marked out for himself. (8)\nThe American writer James Fenimore Cooper wrote that Canning\nwalked into the room with the quiet aplomb of a man accustomed to being lionized\u2026. His face was agreeable and his eye steady and searching. \u2026 I may have imagined that I detected some of his wit, from a knowledge of the character of his mind. He left the impression, however, of a man whose natural powers were checked by a trained and factitious deference to the rank of those with whom he associated. (9)\nFor a snapshot of Canning at a dinner party, see my post about how he introduced the 20 Questions game to America.\nWhen Lord Liverpool suffered a stroke in February 1827 and had to resign, Canning was the most senior minister in the House of Commons. He was also popular with the public. A number of his colleagues, however, saw Canning as an opportunistic parvenu. One who was more sympathetic to him remarked:\nIt is Canning\u2019s misfortune that nobody will believe that he can take the most indifferent step without an ulterior object, nor take his tea without a stratagem. (10)\nOn April 10, 1827, George IV asked Canning to form a government. The Duke of Wellington, as well as Sir Robert Peel and five other members of Liverpool\u2019s cabinet, declined to serve under Canning. Many other Tories joined them in opposition. Canning was obliged to form a coalition of liberal Tories and conservative Whigs. He initiated a program of progressive reforms, but was not able to see them through. Already ill when he took office, George Canning died at Chiswick House in London on August 8, 1827, of inflammation of the liver. He was 57 years old. Huge crowds attended his funeral at Westminster Abbey, where he was buried.

Keep it up.\nThanks, Alfonso. Your wonderful presentation on Gillray\u2019s political caricatures at the Napoleonic Historical Society conference in Toronto was excellent inspiration.\nJacqueline Reiter says:\nExcellent piece! I must say Canning is a fascinating figure. My main caveat is that he didn\u2019t intrigue against Castlereagh because of Walcheren \u2014 the plotting began in February or March, and was the culmination of a variety of issues Canning had with Castlereagh, mostly springing from his handling of the Convention of Cintra of 1808 and his refusal to recall or censure Arthur Wellesley. Of course it was the Walcheren failure that caused all Canning \u2018 s plotting to come out into the open.\nThanks, Jacqueline! It\u2019s great to learn more about the background leading up to the famous duel.\nThe Opposition hates him, the King loathes him; the Ministers distrust him; those who want him do not like him.

        "raw_content": "As a teen, realize that God has deposited so much potentials in you that cannot be quantified by any human calculations. There is no telling what you can achieve in life, if only you walk in God\u2019s love and allow His Word guide your path. This is how to become a success in life. If you follow these simple ways, that is, learning to love everyone around you and abiding in God\u2019s instructions for your life as contain in His Word, you will never fail in life.\nGod almighty gave Joshua the following instructions to keep so that he would be a success in life. \u201cThis Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success\u201d Joshua 1: 8. Can you see that? For Joshua to be a success in life, the simple thing that he had to do was to meditate on the Word of God continuously day and night. This is what you should also do now that you are still very young; go for God\u2019s Word. Study it regularly so that your profiting, advancement or success will be evidence for all to see.\n\u201cAnd we know and have believed the love which God hath in us. God is love; and he that abides in love abides in God, and God abides in Him\u201d 1 John 4: 16. Remember that God is love. If you love others, you will always see good things about them. You will see them the way God sees them and appreciate them that way.\nThe best way to love others is to start with yourself. Do you love yourself? Do you believe in YOU? According to the Word of God, the first and greatest commandment is to love God. Second on the list, in the order of importance is to love others as yourself. \u201cAnd the second is like it: \u2018Love your neighbor as yourself\u201d Matthew 22: 39. In other words, if you do not love yourself, you cannot love others.\nFollow these simple instructions and you will definitely be a huge success in this life.",

His books tend to be of the universal rather than age-dependent sort which is one of the things I like best about his writing. Dear Ollie remains one of my all-time favorites, but he\u2019s written so many others that I have enjoyed. In fact, I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve read a Morpurgo book that I didn\u2019t like. He recently posted writing tips in The Guardian are well worth checking out. I particularly liked this one.\nThe most important thing is to live an interesting life. Keep your eyes, ears and heart open. Talk to people and visit interesting places, and don\u2019t forget to ask questions. To be a writer you need to drink in the world around you so it\u2019s always there in your head.\nHere are two of my most recent favorite Morpurgo reads.\nPrevious Books make a creative Christmas Next Greenery is the way to go for non-crafty types\nI too am a big admirer of Michael Morpurgo\u2019s work. I really enjoyed Kensuke\u2019s Kingdom and Private Peaceful. If I had to choose my favourite Morpurgo books, these are the two I\u2019d pick.\nThanks for the feedback James. I checked out your blog. Good to meet you. I agree. Both excellant books, but my all time favorite is Dear OllY",

        "title": "Second Coming \u2013 The Case For The Defense by Martyn Taylor | Sitting On The Swings",
        "raw_content": "September 15, 2013 by allendmiles\nSecond Coming \u2013 The Case For The Defense by Martyn Taylor\nI have been told by many people over the years that The Second Coming by The Stone Roses was a major anti-climax. After much time, hype and anticipation The Stone Roses released their second album in 1994. Fans had been made to wait five and a half years since the release of their eponymous debut masterpiece.\nA lot had changed in five and a half years. Gone had the days of The Hacienda and The Happy Mondays, gone had the days of the hazy pop sounds that dominated their earlier release. In had come Parkers, Union Jacks and brash guitar-ladened bands (many of whom were influenced by The Stone Roses original sound).\nThe Second Coming was a cursed album from the very start, come on, how do you top an album like their debut? Most bands who release something so undeniably brilliant as The Stone Roses album do so three or four LPs into their careers. trying to top the debut was impossible and pointless, so they tried something new. The Psychedelia sounds were dropped to favour a sound of dirty blues-inspired guitar riffs, heavily influenced by Led Zeppelin.\nThis guitar led blues formula dominates the album, only one song in my opinion harps back to their debut style and that\u2019s Love Spreads. Love Spreads could of slotted into The Stone Roses album seamlessly with out a fuss. Ten Story Love song hints at a psychedelic love revival but falls short where it matters.\nJohn Squires over long guitar solos could be described as self indulgent, but as they say \u201cyou cant have enough of a good thing\u201d and his sheer technical prowess shines through. The opening track Breaking Into Heaven shakes with a groove that is trademark Squire (even if the jungle drum intro is a little unnecessary) and is the stand out track of his blues style of playing.\nIan Brown\u2019s trademarked \u2018man about town\u2019 likeability and hushed vocals had become more polished on this album. The man could not hold a note to save his life, but he spoke to so many through his lyrics. The opening lyrics and harmonica on Good Times are pure filth from Brown and are my personal highlight from him on the album.\nIf this album had been their debut, I believed it would of been hailed, (just like The Stone Roses album) as one of the albums of the decade. It had the unfortunate fate of been a follow up, so it\u2019s legacy was tainted from the off.\nLuckily, I didn\u2019t have the bias of the reviewers of the time to guide me. I discovered The Stone Roses after their split in 1996 and heard both of their albums for the first time on the same day. I did not have the long overdrawn wait for their follow up which the original fans had to endure. My opinions were made purely from the music, I had no prejudice.\nI have always held The Stone Roses debut album in higher esteem than The Second Coming, but don\u2019t let that sway you. The Second Coming is still an amazing album which I still listen to as much as the original release.\n\u201cI have a dream, I\u2019ve seen the light, don\u2019t put it out, say she\u2019s alright, yeah she\u2019s my sister.\u201d\nMartyn Taylor is a 31 year-old father of three and lives in Hull. His pastimes include watching 80s action films over and over again and and debating the all-time Premiership XI with Mr Miles. His knowledge of American sitcoms of the 90s stands second to none. He once walked into a men\u2019s public lavatory absent-mindedly singing the theme tune from Two And A Half Men. You can find him on http://www.twitter.com/shirleysblower but he never tweets, so just follow him on here.\nThis entry was posted in Music, Rants and tagged Second Coming, The Case For The Defense, The Stone Roses.\n4 thoughts on \u201cSecond Coming \u2013 The Case For The Defense by Martyn Taylor\u201d\nReblogged this on martynblog.\nThe first two songs you mentioned (love spreads & ten storey) are my two favourite Stone Roses tunes!\nYou\u2019re right about those records that get crushed by the weight of the expectations. Weezer had a similar 5 year gap following a masterpiece and the results seemed pretty, let\u2019s call it underwhelming.\nThere\u2019s no way Chinese Democracy could ever meet expectations but with both that one and weezer\u2019s green album, listening to them as stand-alone records, they\u2019re not as bad as people initially complained they were\nTimes change, music changes, bands mature. Do bands keep with a familiar sound to keep hardcore fans happy, or develop a new, edgier style to draw in a new crowd? That\u2019s the \u00a364,000 question.\nAnd fans are a fickle bunch \u2013 if Stone Roses had stuck to the exact same sound, people would complain they were treading water musically!",

We shared our wedding photographer\u2019s picture files with our family. My grandmother-in-law misplaced the files and instead of asking for help ended up printing off two that she took at the wedding. One of them is lovely, and it\u2019s sweet, as she took the picture. The other is of the bridal party at the ceremony. It is an OK but not great picture, and to be honest is not the most flattering one of me. I have many of this type of photo. I only visit once or twice a year when we are home. I am visiting right now and staying with them and keep walking past this picture. Is it silly to offer to print her off one of the professional pictures, or should I let it go? I don\u2019t want to offend her regarding her picture choice.\nA: It\u2019s fine to offer her a nicer version of the photo she has already, and nicer still to offer to have it printed and framed for her. If she\u2019s happy with the one she has, let it go. The important thing is that she has a picture of your wedding day that she enjoys.

        "raw_content": "Did you know it\u2019s National Sleep Awareness Week?\nThis week, from March 6th-13th it\u2019s Sleep Awareness Week organized by the National Sleep Foundation. The annual event is designed to raise awareness for the health benefits of sleep and its importance to safety and productivity.\nYou can check out a range of tips and graphics at their website https://sleepfoundation.org/SAW . If you want to help spread the news and learn more, you can join in the campaign on Facebook and Twitter by following and tweeting the hashtag #7Days4BetterSleep.\nIn honour of Sleep Awareness Week, Start School Later (SSL) are highlighting the issues surrounding teen sleep. SSL are a campaign group that advocates for schools in America to change their start times in order to better suit the biological needs of growing children. Watch out for our upcoming interview with Phyllis Payne of SSL.\nIn the meantime, here is some info from SSL you may not know, about the sleep patterns of teens and adolescents. Use the hashtag #StartSchoolLater and #SleepAwarenessWeek to find out more and follow the campaign\nFacts about teen sleep from Start School Later\n1. Adolescents experience a later shift in sleep cycle during puberty, resulting in a later release of the sleep hormone melatonin.\nThis temporary phenomenon makes it difficult for teens and young adults to fall asleep early enough in the evening to accommodate early wake times. This \u201cphase delay\u201d occurs in other mammals as well, but unfortunately we were unaware of this occurrence when we started moving school start times earlier in order to make busing routes easier to coordinate.\n2. School buses arrive before the rooster crows around the nation.\nAccording to the CDC, the average high school start time is before 8 a.m.. School start times in the 7 o\u2019clock hour translate to buses arriving in the 6 o\u2019clock hour and children rising at 5 and 6 a.m..\n3. A wake time of 5 a.m. for teens is biochemically similar to a wake time of 2 a.m. for adults.\nTeens not only experience the later shift in sleep cycle, they also need more sleep than adults \u2013 approximately 8.5 to 9.5 hours each night \u2013 or more for athletes. A bedtime of 8 p.m. would be required for a teen to get 9 hours of sleep before 5 a.m. \u2013 which is not only a biological and sociological improbability \u2013 it also requires a teen to sleep at times that are in opposition to her circadian rhythm.\n4. The morning alarm clock is considered the biggest culprit of teen sleep loss in the USA.\nA compelling body of evidence linking early morning school hours to teen sleep loss and related health and performance problems is why the Centers for Disease Control, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the National Association of School Nurses, and the Society of Pediatric Nurses have all called for middle and high schools to start after 8:30 a.m..\nOther groups who have called for healthier school start times include the non-partisan Education Commission of the States, the American Sleep Association, the American Thoracic Society, and more. A review of the research, and a more complete list of health, education, and civic organizations that have called for later school start times, can be found on the website of the national non-profit Start School Later: www.StartSchoolLater.net.",

        "raw_content": "4.3: Nutrition\nA Historic Look at Breastfeeding\nGlobal Considerations and Malnutrition\nThe Breast Milk Industry\nMilk Anemia in the United States\nBreast milk is considered the ideal diet for newborns. It has the right amount of calories, fat, and protein to support overall physical and neurological development, it provides a source of iron more easily absorbed in the body than the iron found in dietary supplements, it provides a resistance against many diseases, it is more easily digested by infants than is formula, and it helps babies make a transition to solid foods more easily than if bottle fed. For all of these reasons, it is recommended that mothers breast feed their infants until at least 6 months of age and that breast milk be used in the diet throughout the first year (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2004a in Berk, 2007).\nHowever, most mothers who breastfeed in the United States stop breast feeding at about 6-8 weeks, often in order to return to work outside the home. Mothers can certainly continue to provide breast milk to their babies by expressing and freezing the milk to be bottle fed at a later time or by being available to their infants at feeding time, but some mothers find that after the initial encouragement they receive in the hospital to breast feed, the outside world is less supportive of such efforts. Some workplaces support breastfeeding mothers by providing flexible schedules and welcoming infants, but many do not. And the public support of breastfeeding is sometimes lacking. Women in Canada are more likely to breastfeed than are those in the United States and the Canadian health recommendation is for breastfeeding to continue until 2 years of age. Facilities in public places in Canada such as malls, ferries, and workplaces provide more support and comfort for the breastfeeding mother and child than found in the United States.\nOne early argument given to promote the practice of breastfeeding was that it promoted bonding and healthy emotional development for infants. However, this does not seem to be the case. Breastfed and bottle-fed infants adjust equally well emotionally (Ferguson and Woodward, 1999). This is good news for mothers who may be unable to breastfeed for a variety of reasons and for fathers who might feel left out as a result.\nIn addition to the nutritional benefits of breastfeeding, breast milk is free! Anyone who has priced formula recently can appreciate this added incentive to breastfeeding. Prices for a month\u2019s worth of formula can easily range from $130-200. Breastfeeding also stimulates contractions in the uterus to help it regain its normal size. And women who breastfeed are more likely to space their pregnancies further apart.\nThe use of wet nurses, or lactating women hired to nurse others\u2019 infants, during the middle ages eventually declined and mothers increasingly breastfed their own infants in the late 1800s. In the early part of the 20th century, breastfeeding began to go through another decline and by the 1950s, it was practiced less frequently by middle class, more affluent mothers as formula began to be viewed as superior to breast milk. In the late 1960s and 1970s, greater emphasis began to be placed on natural childbirth and breastfeeding and the benefits of breastfeeding were more widely publicized. Gradually rates of breastfeeding began to climb, particularly among middle-class educated mothers who received the strongest messages to breastfeed. Today, women receive consultation from lactation specialists before being discharged from the hospital to ensure that they are informed of the benefits of breastfeeding and given support and encouragement to get their infants to get used to taking the breast. This does not always happen immediately and first time mothers, especially, can become upset or discouraged. In this case, lactation specialists and nursing staff can encourage the mother to keep trying until baby and mother are comfortable with the feeding.\nIn the 1960s, formula companies led campaigns in developing countries to encourage mothers to feed their babies on infant formula. Many mothers felt that formula would be superior to breast milk and began using formula. The use of formula can certainly be healthy under conditions in which there is adequate, clean water with which to mix the formula and adequate means to sanitize bottles and nipples. However, in many of these countries such conditions were not available and babies often were given diluted, contaminated formula which made them become sick with diarrhea and become dehydrated. Rates of breast feeding declined in Peru from 90 percent to 10 percent in just 8 years time (Berger, 2001). These conditions continue today and now many hospitals prohibit the distribution of formula samples to new mothers in efforts to get them to rely on breast feeding. Many of these mothers do not understand the benefits of breast feeding and have to be encouraged and supported in order to promote this practice. Breast feeding could save the lives of millions of infants each year, according to the World Health Organization, yet fewer than 40 percent of infants are breastfed exclusively for the first 6 months of life. Find out more at the WHO\u2019s 10 facts on breastfeeding. Most women can breastfeed unless they are receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy, have HIV, are dependent on illicit drugs, or have active, untreated tuberculosis.\nChildren in developing countries and countries experiencing the harsh conditions of war are at risk for two major types of malnutrition. Infantile marasmus refers to starvation due to a lack of calories and protein. Children who do not receive adequate nutrition lose fat and muscle until their bodies can no longer function. Babies who are breast fed are much less at risk of malnutrition than those who are bottle fed. After weaning, children who have diets deficient in protein may experience kwashiorkor or the \u201cdisease of the displaced child\u201d often occurring after another child has been born and taken over breastfeeding. This results in a loss of appetite and swelling of the abdomen as the body begins to break down the vital organs as a source of protein.\nKwashiorkor (Photo Courtesy Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)\nThe benefits of breast milk are well-known and publicized. The collection and distribution of breast milk has become a million dollar industry supplying hospitals and others in need of the ideal diet. For more information, go to www.prolacta.com to see a current development in the story of breast milk.\nAbout 9 million children in the United States are malnourished (Children\u2019s Welfare, 1998). More still suffer from milk anemia, a condition in which milk consumption leads to a lack of iron in the diet. This can be due to the practice of giving toddlers milk as a pacifier-when resting, when riding, when waking, and so on. Appetite declines somewhat during toddlerhood and a small amount of milk (especially with added chocolate syrup) can easily satisfy a child\u2019s appetite for many hours. The calcium in milk interferes with the absorption of iron in the diet as well. Many preschools and daycare centers give toddlers a drink after they have finished their meal in order to prevent spoiling their appetites.",

        "title": "US Dept. of Energy Launches USD2 Billion Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program",
        "raw_content": "Home Solar News Financing US Dept. of Energy Launches USD2 Billion Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program\nThe US Department of Energy (DOE) recently announced a USD2 billion loan guarantee program aimed at facilitating financing and development of energy resources, products or services on Native American and Alaskan Native lands \u2013 the first time the program has been extended to include them.\nAs much as 90 percent of unpaid principal and interest on loans taken out by recognized Native American or Alaskan Native tribes to carry out projects may be guaranteed via the Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program, as it\u2019s known. Tribal borrowers need to invest equity in projects and all project debt needs to come from non-federal lenders, explains the DOE Loan Program Office (LPO), which administers the program.\nSome see the DOE loan program as the key that could catalyze local renewable energy resources and battery energy storage development on US tribal lands. The DOE Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program is an \u201call of the above\u201d energy resources development program, however, an LPO spokesperson explained to Solar Magazine.\nThe Native Movement team is helping speed up the transition to a regenerative economy by deploying solar. | Photo credit: Native Movement\nOpening the gates to renewable energy and energy storage on US tribal lands\nTribal Energy loan guarantees may be awarded to applicants aiming to develop fossil fuel projects \u2013 shale oil and gas extraction and production, a coal-fired power generation facility, or natural gas pipeline, for instance \u2013 or to those that intend to develop more environmentally friendly renewable energy or smart grid projects, such as solar or wind power farms or battery-based energy storage projects. Regardless of the technology or energy resource involved, the focus is on providing federal, DOE loan guarantees to projects that make use of commercially-proven technologies. \u201cUltimately what gets funded will be what the market brings to the program,\u201d according to the DOE.\nNonetheless, some in the renewable energy and battery-based energy storage industry see the new, USD2 billion Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program as a potential key that unlocks the door to development of a vast amount of untapped clean energy resources.\nThe Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program should benefit all stakeholders \u2013 local communities and governing authorities, project developers, lenders and investors, according to Stefan Schauss, executive director of CellCube Energy Storage, developer of vanadium-ion flow battery technology and systems based in Vancouver, Canada. The DOE loan program can stimulate creation of businesses on tribal lands that create jobs and improve energy access, reliability and resiliency by enabling local communities to generate emissions-free, environmentally friendly electrical power, Schauss said in an interview.\nFurthermore, the environmental and social costs of conventional energy development have yet to be fully factored into or accounted for in conventional economic and financial models, Schauss pointed out. Projects that make use of the latest digital, distributed solar and wind power generation combined with battery-based energy storage resolve those issues, and they\u2019re now as inexpensive, or in some cases, cheaper than developing equivalent fossil-fuel based power generation, transmission and distribution capacity, he explained.\nDistributed renewable energy among Native American and Alaskan Native communities\nConventional power generation, transmission and distribution can be very costly. Decentralized, digital battery-based energy storage and renewable energy systems can alleviate that burden while at the same time preventing carbon-fuel dissemination into the environment. The benefits include cleaner air and water resources, which makes for a much more viable case.\n\u201cWe probably can\u2019t eliminate fossil fuels entirely, but we can reduce their production and use significantly. That includes co-locating distributed renewable power generation and battery-based energy storage with conventional, fossil-fuel power generation,\u201d Schauss told Solar Magazine.\nDigital, distributed solar energy and battery-based energy storage systems are proving to be cost-effective and much better suited than their traditional, conventional counterparts when it comes to expanding access to safe, reliable energy to hard-to-reach places and communities across a growing swath of the developing and lesser developed world.\nBuckland\u2019s 10.53-kW solar system used to power the village\u2019s new water plant. | Source: US Dept. of Energy\nSimilarly, the DOE Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program can help catalyze development of local, renewable, as well as conventional, energy resources and modern energy control, management and distribution systems on Native American and Alaskan Native lands, Schauss added.\nThe costs of deploying, and integrating, distributed solar energy and battery-based energy storage systems continue to decline, and the rules governing markets and industry are changing in parallel. DOE tribal energy development loan guarantees will improve the \u201cbankability\u201d and hence facilitate project development. \u201cOverall, we\u2019re migrating in the direction of being able to create vital, healthy systems and markets for local clean energy services and products without the need for government support and incentive programs,\u201d Schauss said.\nSchauss believes that if all goes well, construction of an initial set of loan guarantee program projects could begin, or perhaps even be completed, by mid to late 2019. For its part, CellCube is carrying out some pre-engineering studies with an eye towards working with a Native American or Alaskan Native organizations to obtain DOE loan guarantees for prospective projects that would make use of its flow battery-based energy storage technology, in particular when paired with solar power generation. That spans a range of system sizes, from utility-scale down to the community level, Schauss explained.\nAn \u201call of the above\u201d tribal energy loan guarantee program\nEnergy, mineral and natural resource development on Native American and Alaskan Native tribal lands has been a keystone of agricultural and economic development, as well as urbanization and population growth, throughout the US West. Besides publicly voicing and demonstrating their opposition to conventional energy project development on their lands, such as the Keystone XL pipeline, Native American and Alaskan Natives have been looking to carry out more sustainable and locally beneficial renewable energy resources development.\nThe topic continues to be a contentious and hotly debated one, both inside tribal communities and more broadly in Washington, DC and nationwide. Tribal lands represent 5.8 percent of land area for the contiguous US. They hold around 6.5 percent of national renewable energy potential, however, according to DOE National Renewable Energy Laboratory\u2019s Tribal Energy Atlas. Furthermore, poverty levels in Native American and Alaskan Native communities is the highest in the Western Hemisphere.\nThe combination of those two attributes makes tribal lands prime territory for energy resources, products and services development. In addition, the Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program is focused on stimulating local socioeconomic development and empowering Native Americans and Alaskan Natives by supporting energy industry-related job training and education. According to the DOE:\n\u201cOn a project basis, applicants do need to demonstrate the measurable benefits of the project to one or more tribes, as applicable. On a broader overall basis, the goals of TELGP are to increase availability of commercial debt financing to tribal communities (similar to what LPO did with the utility-scale PV market) and provide economic opportunities to tribes through energy development projects and activities.\nThe main beneficiaries will be tribes or wholly-owned tribal entities. The solicitation lists eligible borrowers as Indian tribes or Alaska Native corporations that are recognized as eligible for the special programs and services provided by the United States to Indians because of their status as Indians, or duly authorized and existing corporate entities, wholly-owned or controlled by the above.\u201d\nThe Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program was created by federal US Energy Policy Act of 2005. Initial funding \u2013 USD8.5 million for credit subsidy costs and USD500,000 for administrative costs \u2013 occurred in Fiscal Year 2017. In addition to Native American and Alaskan Native organizations, the DOE loan guarantee program is open to projects partially owned by non-tribal participants.\nEnergy Secretary Rick Perry delegated administration of the program to LPO in February 2018. LPO worked closely with colleagues in the Office of Indian Energy Policy and Programs in order to reach out to and solicit feedback from tribal leaders over a period of five months to pave the way for the launch of the program. The agency issued the first Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program Solicitation on July 17 this year.\nThe Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program differs from other DOE loan programs in that it is structured as a partnership between eligible lenders \u2013 commercial banks or other non-federal lenders with relevant qualifications \u2013 and the DOE. A Native American or Alaskan Native tribe seeking to obtain a loan guarantee would apply to an eligible lender, which in turn would apply to DOE for a guarantee. The tribal loan program also allows for projects to be partially owned by non-tribal participants.\nOf particular note, the so-called credit subsidy fee prospective project developers are required to pay upfront to apply for a Tribal Energy loan guarantee has been lowered to USD35,000. That\u2019s a lot lower than fees for other active solicitations, which cost USD150,000 for loans of less than USD150 million and USD400,000 for loans greater than USD150 million. That should make the program accessible and affordable to a much broader range of applicants, including those aiming to develop smaller-scale, local energy development projects. comment\n* Cover image credit: US Dept. of Energy\nPaul R.

Beauv. 1805 var. aurea\npronounced: spath-OH-dee-uh kam-pan-yoo-LAH-tuh\n(Bignoniaceae \u2014 the jacaranda family)\ncommon names: African Tulip Tree, Fountain Tree, Flame-of-the-forest\nAfrican Tulip tree flowers Spathodea comes from the Greek \u03c3\u03c0\u03b1\u03b8\u03b7 (spath\u00e9), a blade, and refers to the spathes in the flower; campanulata comes from the Latin campana, a bell \u2013 i.e. bell-shaped, referring to the flowers. Aurea is also from the Latin, aureus, golden, as this variety (a smaller tree) has flowers coloured orange to yellow, rather than the mainly red flower of the main species.\nAlthough this is a very attractive tree when in flower, it easily becomes an invasive weed in the wet tropics. Not only do the seeds germinate readily, but the extensive system of roots, lying just under the surface of the soil, readily puts forth suckers.\nThe tree, a native of tropical Africa, grows up to 20 m tall with an open crown. When mature, the trunk develops characteristic buttresses. Its shallow root system, and its tendency for branches to break off in storms, makes it unsuitable as a roadside tree.\nThe opposite, pinnate leaves are up to about 20 cm long with 8\u201318 leaflets. These are leathery, shiny green above, with some hairs on the lower surface. The bell-shaped flowers, anything up to 12 cm long, are grouped in large clusters. When the calyx splits, the orange to red crinkly petals unfold. The buds and the freshly opened flowers are filled with nectar, very popular with birds. The fruit is an elongated follicle, up to 20 cm long, usually held upright. At maturity it turns brown, and splits along the side to release large numbers of winged seeds to be carried on the breeze.\nThe buds are often used by children as water-pistols. They also use half of the split pods as toy boats for boat races in fast-flowing drains.\nIn West Africa, the seeds, flowers and leaves are all used in traditional medicines. The bark has laxative and antiseptic properties: it is chewed and sprayed over swollen cheeks. The bark may also be boiled in water used for bathing newly born babies to heal body rashes.\nIt would appear that the seeds are edible (but I cannot guarantee this!), but that the other parts of the fruit are probably poisonous.\nThe wood of the tree is soft, and is used for nesting by some of the hole-building birds. In Africa, the soft, white timber is used for making paper, and also for making native drums and blacksmiths' bellows. Paper is also made from this wood in Singapore. In the Philippines, the tree is grown as a plantation crop and used in the making of plywood. In Ethiopia, it is used as firewood, and to produce charcoal.\nThe caterpillars of the moth Meganoton rufescens feed on the tree.",

Its common name is due to the saponin foam that forms on the bark after heavy rain, or if pieces of the bark are shaken up in water. It is found from the Bloomfield River (15\u00baS) in far North Queensland south to the Manning River (35\u00baS) in NSW. Its altitudinal range is from near sea level to 850 m. It grows in drier, more seasonal rainforest and beach forest. It also occurs in New Guinea.\nOn Magnetic Island, there are examples of this tree on the Hawkings Point walking track, at Arthur Bay, and by the walking track at the end of Mandalay Avenue in Nelly Bay.\nnew growth & blossom blossom detail The tree is usually a small one, but can grow up to 30 m tall, and 50 cm in trunk diameter. It develops a crown at maturity. The bark is smooth and grey, with horizontal raised ridges. Raised horizontal leaf scars are often visible on the stem. The bases of larger trees are often flanged.\nThe leaves are alternate and pinnate, with 8\u201326 leaflets, each 4\u20136 cm long, with very short stems. They are toothed, unequal-sided, particularly at the base, and have a pointed tip. The young shoots and the young twigs are hairy and longitudinally grooved.

The petals are about 2 mm long. There are usually 8 stamens, the filaments hairy. The disk is continuous, surrounding the ovary and the base of the staminal filaments.\nThe fruit forms in August to November, an egg-shaped capsule with 3 cells, about 18 mm long, and hairy inside and out; the capsules mature to a brown colour, after first being a violet pink. There is one seed per cell, with a small basal aril; the dark brown or black seeds are about 7\u20138 mm long by 4\u20135 mm broad. Care needs to be taken while handling the capsule, as the hairs can cause skin irritation. The fruit is eaten by the Australian King Parrot and the Green Catbird. Germination from fresh seed is not generally difficult.\ndetail of fruit\nripe fruit The beautiful form of this tree makes it well-suited as an ornamental. If planted in a garden, it should be surrounded by other plants, to discourage people from picking up any fallen fruits. Indigenous Australians used the froth from crushed bark both as a soap and as a fish poison. The bark was also used during World War I as a foaming agent for beer. There is another recognized variety of this species, var. integerrima, restricted to the Atherton Tableland and surrounding mountains, at an altitudinal range from 650 \u2013 1200 m. This variety grows in well-developed upland and mountain rain forest. Both varieties are useful honey trees, and the timber makes good tool handles.\nPhotographs taken at Nelly Bay, 2012-2015",

The law stated,\" ...separate waiting rooms or space and separate ticket windows for the white and colored races.\" Sperate ticket windows, waiting rooms, and space were made for \"black\" and white people. The Jim Crow laws stated...\nAll passenger stations in this state operated by any motor transportation company shall have separate waiting rooms or space and separate ticket windows for the white and colored races\nRestaurants were another thing that colored people had a problem with. There were to different rooms for white and colored people. The laws during this time stated...\n...serve either white people exclusively or colored people exclusively and shall not sell to the two races within the same room or serve the two races\nIn the story Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, the story takes place during the Great Depression. The Great Depression happened during the 1920's ad 30's as the stock market crashed. This caused one in four Americans to lose their jobs. Because the stock market crashed, work was difficult to find. People traveled across the country to look for work. To add to this situation, there was a severe drought occurring making it difficult to farm. The drought caused enormous dust storms in the country, which was an event that was known as the Dust Bowl. The characters from Roll of Thunder, Here My Cry are effected. The students from Great Faith Elementary, like Cassie and her brothers, are forced to read a from used books in their classes. Their papa spends part of the year working for the railroad in Louisiana to earn money so the Logans' can keep their family owned farm.\nThese pictures show people waiting in line for food, people eating food, looking for a job, and kids protesting.\nPresident Abraham Lincoln delivered the Emancipation Proclamation in the middle of the Civil War on January 1st, 1863. He stated, \"And I hereby call upon the people so declared to be free to abstain from all violence.\" After this speech, the Union armies won the Civil War and African Americans were free men and women. However, their freedom came with many challenges. In Roll of Thunder, Here My Cry, Uncle Hammer tells the family,\"\u201cMe and John Henry and David grew up together. And John Henry and me even fought in their war together. What good was it? A black man\u2019s life ain\u2019t worth the life of a cowfly down here (Taylor 266).\u201d This shows that even though black and white fought in the war, a black life was less important than a white man's life.\n\"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.\" -The Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America\nLynching is punishing a person for a crime without giving them a fair trial. This was common in the USA during the time of the Jim Crow Laws, and extremely popular in the South. In Roll of Thunder, Here My Cry, lynching happened often. One of the characters, Mr. Berry, was falsely accused of being inappropriate to a white lady and burned in the beginning of the book. Towards the end of the story, T.J. Is almost killed by a mob of white men wanting to punish him for stealing a pistol and killing Mr. Barnett. Mr. Jamison, the lawyer, tries to protect T.J. while saying, \"Y'all let the sheriff and me take the boy.

Image Credit: NASA\nA software application based on an algorithm created by a NASA challenge has the potential to increase the number of new asteroid discoveries by amateur astronomers.\nAnalysis of images taken of our solar system\u2019s main belt asteroids between Mars and Jupiter using the algorithm showed a 15 percent increase in positive identification of new asteroids.\nDuring a panel Sunday at the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, NASA representatives discussed how citizen scientists have made a difference in asteroid hunting. They also announced the release of a desktop software application developed by NASA in partnership with Planetary Resources, Inc., of Redmond, Washington. The application is based on an Asteroid Data Hunter-derived algorithm that analyzes images for potential asteroids. It\u2019s a tool that can be used by amateur astronomers and citizen scientists.\nThe Asteroid Data Hunter challenge was part of NASA\u2019s Asteroid Grand Challenge. The data hunter contest series, which was conducted in partnership with Planetary Resources under a Space Act Agreement, was announced at the 2014 South by Southwest Festival and concluded in December. The series offered a total of $55,000 in awards for participants to develop significantly improved algorithms to identify asteroids in images captured by ground-based telescopes. The winning solutions of each piece of the contest combined to create an application using the best algorithm that increased the detection sensitivity, minimized the number of false positives, ignored imperfections in the data, and ran effectively on all computer systems.\n\u201cThe Asteroid Grand Challenge is seeking non-traditional partnerships to bring the citizen science and space enthusiast community into NASA\u2019s work,\u201d said Jason Kessler, program executive for NASA\u2019s Asteroid Grand Challenge. \u201cThe Asteroid Data Hunter challenge has been successful beyond our hopes, creating something that makes a tangible difference to asteroid hunting astronomers and highlights the possibility for more people to play a role in protecting our planet.\u201d\nThe data hunter challenge incorporated data provided by the Minor Planet Center (MPC), at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and images provided by the Catalina Sky Survey, an astronomical survey project run by the University of Arizona, Tucson, and focused on the discovery and study of near-Earth asteroids and comets.\n\u201cWe applaud all the participants in the Asteroid Data Hunter challenge. We are extremely encouraged by the algorithm created and it\u2019s already making a difference. This increase in knowledge will help assess more quickly which asteroids are potential threats, human destinations or resource rich,\u201d said Chris Lewicki, president and chief engineer at Planetary Resources. \u201cIt has been exciting for our team to work with NASA on this project, and we also look forward to future space-based systems leveraging these results.\u201d\nAstronomers find asteroids by taking images of the same place in the sky and looking for star-like objects that move between frames, an approach that has been used since before Pluto was discovered in 1930. With more telescopes scanning the sky, the ever-increasing volume of data makes it impossible for astronomers to verify each detection by hand. This new algorithm gives astronomers the ability to use computers to autonomously and rapidly check the images and determine which objects are suitable for follow up, which leads to finding more asteroids than previously possible.\n\u201cThe beauty of such archives is that the data doesn\u2019t grow stale, and with novel approaches, techniques and algorithms, they can be harvested for new information. The participants of the Asteroid Data Hunter challenge did just that, probing observations of the night sky for new asteroids that might have slipped through the software cracks the first time the images were analyzed,\u201d said Jose Luis Galache of the MPC. \u201cMoreover, this software can now be used to analyze new images and is available to any observer who wants to use it. The Minor Planet Center applauds these efforts to provide superior tools to all, and looks forward to receiving new asteroid observations generated with them.\u201d\nThe desktop software application is free and can be used on any basic desktop or laptop computer. Amateur astronomers may take images from their telescopes and analyze them with the application. The application will tell the user whether a matching asteroid record exists and offer a way to report new findings to the Minor Planet Center, which then confirms and archives new discoveries.\nThrough NASA\u2019s asteroid initiative, the agency seeks to enhance its ongoing work in the identification and characterization of near-Earth objects for further scientific investigation. This work includes locating potentially hazardous asteroids and identifying those viable for redirection to a stable lunar orbit for future exploration by astronauts using NASA\u2019s Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft. The Asteroid Grand Challenge, one part of the asteroid initiative, expands the agency\u2019s efforts beyond traditional boundaries and encourages partnerships and collaboration with a variety of organizations.\nThe algorithm contests were managed and executed by NASA\u2019s Center of Excellence for Collaborative Innovation (CoECI). CoECI was established at the request of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy to advance NASA\u2019s open innovation efforts and extend that expertise to other federal agencies. CoECI uses the NASA Tournament Lab (NTL) for its advanced algorithmic and software development contests. Through its contract with the Crowd Innovation Lab at Harvard University, NTL uses Appirio\u2019s Crowdsourcing platform powered by Topcoder to enable a community of more than 750,000 designers, developers and data scientists to create the most innovative, efficient and optimized solutions for specific, real-world challenges faced by NASA. Data storage of the Catalina Sky Survey data was provided by Amazon Web Services.\nThe new asteroid hunting application can be downloaded at:\nhttp://topcoder.com/asteroids\nFor information about NASA\u2019s Asteroid Grand Challenge, visit:\nTagged with: asteroid grand challenge \u2022 Citizen Science \u2022 metero counting",

In real life, thanks to observatories such as NASA\u2019s Kepler space telescope, we know that two-star systems can indeed support planets, although planets discovered so far around double-star systems are large and gaseous. Scientists wondered: If an Earth-size planet were orbiting two suns, could it support life?\nIt turns out, such a planet could be quite hospitable if located at the right distance from its two stars, and wouldn\u2019t necessarily even have deserts. In a particular range of distances from two sun-like host stars, a planet covered in water would remain habitable and retain its water for a long time, according to a new study in the journal Nature Communications.\n\u201cThis means that double-star systems of the type studied here are excellent candidates to host habitable planets, despite the large variations in the amount of starlight hypothetical planets in such a system would receive,\u201d said Max Popp, associate research scholar at Princeton University in New Jersey, and the Max Planck Institute of Meteorology in Hamburg, Germany.\nPopp and Siegfried Eggl, a Caltech postdoctoral scholar at NASA\u2019s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, created a model for a planet in the Kepler-35 system. In reality, the stellar pair Kepler-35A and B host a planet called Kepler-35b, a giant planet about eight times the size of Earth, with an orbit of 131.5 Earth days. For their study, researchers neglected the gravitational influence of this planet and added a hypothetical water-covered, Earth-size planet around the Kepler-35 A and B stars. They examined how this planet\u2019s climate would behave as it orbited the host stars with periods between 341 and 380 days.\n\u201cOur research is motivated by the fact that searching for potentially habitable planets requires a lot of effort, so it is good to know in advance where to look,\u201d Eggl said. \u201cWe show that it\u2019s worth targeting double-star systems.\u201d\nIn exoplanet research, scientists speak of a region called the \u201chabitable zone,\u201d the range of distances around a star where a terrestrial planet is most likely to have liquid water on its surface. In this case, because two stars are orbiting each other, the habitable zone depends on the distance from the center of mass that both stars are orbiting. To make things even more complicated, a planet around two stars would not travel in a circle; instead, its orbit would wobble through the gravitational interaction with the two stars.\nPopp and Eggl found that on the far edge of the habitable zone in the Kepler-35 double-star system, the hypothetical water-covered planet would have a lot of variation in its surface temperatures. Because such a cold planet would have only a small amount of water vapor in its atmosphere, global average surface temperatures would swing up and down by as much as 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit (2 degrees Celsius) in the course of a year.\n\u201cThis is analogous to how, on Earth, in arid climates like deserts, we experience huge temperature variations from day to night,\u201d Eggl said. \u201cThe amount of water in the air makes a big difference.\u201d\nBut, closer to the stars, near the inner edge of the habitable zone, the global average surface temperatures on the same planet stay almost constant. That is because more water vapor would be able to persist in the atmosphere of the hypothetical planet and act as a buffer to keep surface conditions comfortable.\nAs with single-star systems, a planet beyond the outer edge of the habitable zone of its two suns would eventually end up in a so-called \u201csnowball\u201d state, completely covered with ice. Closer than the inner edge of the habitable zone, an atmosphere would insulate the planet too much, creating a runaway greenhouse effect and turning the planet into a Venus-like world inhospitable to life as we know it.\nAnother feature of the study\u2019s climate model is that, compared to Earth, a water-covered planet around two stars would have less cloud coverage. That would mean clearer skies for viewing double sunsets on these exotic worlds.\nNASA\u2019s planet-hunting Kepler telescope is managed by NASA\u2019s Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley.

        "title": "Wart (Plantar, Verruca Vulgaris, Verrucae) Article - StatPearls",
        "raw_content": "Wart (Plantar, Verruca Vulgaris, Verrucae)\nWarts are benign lesions that occur in the mucosa and skin.[1][2][3]\nWarts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), with over 100 types of HPV identified. HPV may occur at any site. The primary manifestations of HPV infection include:\nDeep palmoplantar warts (Myrmecia)\nFocal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck disease)\nPlantar cysts\nWarts may be transmitted by direct or indirect contact. Events that disrupt the normal epithelial barrier increase the likelihood of developing warts. Treatment may be difficult. Warts often resolve spontaneously within a few years.\nSome high-risk HPV subtypes are associated with malignancies, including types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, and 35. Malignant transformation usually is seen in patients with genital warts and immunocompromised patients. HPV types 5, 8, 20, and 47 have oncogenic those with epidermodysplasia verruciformis.\nThere are over 100 subtypes of the HPV virus, but only a few types can cause skin warts at selective anatomical sites. However, with skin contact, the HPV can be transferred to any part of the body. HPV tends to cause genital warts, flat warts, and palmoplantar warts. Warts are easily transmitted by direct or indirect contact, especially if there is disruption of the normal epithelial barrier.[4][5]\nBesides the skin, warts can also occur on mucous membranes. In general, HPV usually only infects the epithelial layers of skin, and systemic dissemination is very rare. The virus is known to replicate in the upper level of the epithelium, but the virus particles also can be found in the basal layer.\nWarts are a common medical problem, especially in Whites.[6][7][8]\nWarts are common worldwide and affect approximately 10% of the population. In school-aged children, the prevalence is as high as 10% to 20%. They are more common among immunosuppressed patients and meat handlers.\nWarts can occur at any age. Although rare in infancy and early childhood, prevalence increases among school-aged children and peaks at 12 to 16 years.\nWarts are twice as common in Whites as in Blacks or Asians. Focal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck disease) is more prevalent in Inuit and American Indians.\nThe male-to-female ratio is approximately equal.\nOut of the 100 subtypes of HPV, a few of them have the propensity to induce cancer. These subtypes include HPV strains 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, and 35. Malignant transformation tends to occur in individuals with genital warts and those who are immunocompromised. HPV strains 5, 8, 20, and 47 also have malignant potential in individuals with epidermodysplasia verruciformis.\nWarts, in general, are benign but there are reports that sometimes they may become malignant and develop into what is known as verrucous carcinoma. The verrucous carcinoma is a slow-growing tumor and is classified as a well-differentiated squamous cell malignancy that is often mistaken for a common wart. Even though it can occur on any part of the body, it is most common on the plantar surface. Verrucous cancer rarely spreads, but it is locally destructive.[9][10]\nHistopathologic features include acanthosis, digitated epidermal hyperplasia, papillomatosis, compact orthokeratosis, hypergranulosis, tortuous capillaries within the dermal papillae, and vertical tiers of parakeratotic cells with red blood cells entrapped above the tips of the digitations. Elongated rete ridges may point radially toward the center of the lesion. In the granular layer, cells infected with HPV have coarse keratohyaline granules and vacuoles surrounding wrinkled-appearing nuclei. Koilocytic cells are pathognomonic.\nButcher's warts have acanthosis, hyperkeratosis, and papillomatosis. Small vacuolized cells are seen, and centrally located shrunken nuclei may be identified in clusters within the granular layer rete ridges.\nFiliform warts appear similar to common warts, but they may have prominent papillomatosis.\nFocal epithelial hyperplasia is characterized by acanthosis, blunting, hyperplastic mucosa with thin parakeratotic stratum corneum, anastomosis of rete ridges, and whiteness of epidermal cells due to intracellular edema. Some may have prominent keratohyaline granules, and vacuolated cells may be present.\nDeep Palmoplantar\nDeep palmoplantar warts are similar to common warts except the lesion lies deep to the plane of the skin surface. The endophytic epidermal growth has the distinctive feature of polygonal, refractile-appearing, eosinophilic, cytoplasmic inclusions made up of keratin filaments, forming ringlike structures. Basophilic parakeratotic cells loaded with virions and basophilic nuclear inclusions and may be in the upper layers of the epidermis.\nFlat warts are similar to common warts in light microscopy. Cells with prominent perinuclear vacuolization around pyknotic, basophilic, centrally located nuclei can be in the granular layer. These are referred to as \"owl's eye cells.\"\nA cyst wart is filled with horny material. The wall is composed of basal, granular, and squamous cells. Many epithelial cells have large nuclei and clear cytoplasm with eosinophilic inclusion bodies. The cyst may rupture causing a foreign body granuloma.\nThe majority of warts do not cause symptoms. However, they do cause cosmetic disfigurement and, in the rare patient, may cause localized pain. Plantar warts can be painful because of compression and extensive friction that can lead to bleeding. If the plantar wart is large, it can even impair a patient's ambulation and ability to wear shoes.\nThe diagnosis of a wart is usually made on a clinical exam.[5][11]\nImmunohistochemical detection of HPV structural proteins confirms the presence of a virus, but this has a poor sensitivity. Viral DNA identification using Southern blot hybridization is more sensitive and specific for HPV type. Polymerase chain reaction amplifies viral DNA for testing. Although HPV can be detected in younger lesions, it is not always present in older lesions.\nA biopsy is obtained if doubt exists regarding the diagnosis. The paring of a wart often reveals tiny black dots which represent thrombosed capillaries.\nOnce the diagnosis is made, the treatment depends on symptoms, patient preferences, and cost. Even though there are many treatments for warts, none is very effective, and recurrences are common with each of them. In general, one should try the least expensive and least painful treatment first. The more expensive and invasive treatments are usually reserved for multiple recurrent warts. Observation is also a part of treatment and should always be considered. It is known that nearly two-thirds of warts spontaneously disappear within 24 months. The only negative observation is that there is a small risk that the wart can enlarge and may even spread to other areas. In most cases, topical agents are utilized first. Salicylic acid is often a first-line agent for the common wart. It requires no prescription and can be used by the patient at home. It has cure rates of 50% to 70%. Cryotherapy, retinoic acid, podophyllin, topical 5-fluorouracil, interferon, and imiquimod are also used for treatment.[12][13][14]\nIrrespective of the treatment selected, failures and recurrence are common. Most warts resolve spontaneously.\nThe management of warts is multidisciplinary. Patients with warts may present to the primary provider, dermatologist, urgent care clinic or to the nurse practitioner. The key to management of warts is patient education. Once a diagnosis of warts is made, the patient should be educated on preventing trauma and transmission. The patient should be told to avoid nail biting, wear proper shoe wear at the swimming pool and wear gloves when working with meat products. Patients should be told that warts can disappear spontaneously and the decision to seek treatment should not be undertaken lightly. Finally, the patient should understand that there is no treatment that works immediately and many sessions are required- which not only adds to the cost but also increases the risk of adverse reactions. [15][16](Level V)\nWhen looking at outcomes, it is important to be aware that nearly two-thirds of warts resolve spontaneously over 12-24 months, and there is almost no scarring or any residual defect. However, when warts are medically or surgically treated, inevitably there is scarring, pain, cost, and adverse effects. More important, every single treatment for warts is associated with failures. Warts are generally asymptomatic but can be painful in some people, depending on their location. Malignant change has been reported in warts, but this is a rare occurrence.[17][18][19] (Level V)\nTake 11 Question Quiz on Wart (Plantar, Verruca Vulgaris, Verrucae)",

        "title": "What is a Matrix?",
        "raw_content": "This lesson introduces the matrix - the rectangular array at the heart of matrix algebra. Matrix algebra is used quite a bit in advanced statistics, largely because it provides two benefits.\nCompact notation for describing sets of data and sets of equations.\nEfficient methods for manipulating sets of data and solving sets of equations.\nA matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns. The array of numbers below is an example of a matrix.\nThe number of rows and columns that a matrix has is called its dimension or its order. By convention, rows are listed first; and columns, second. Thus, we would say that the dimension (or order) of the above matrix is 3 x 4, meaning that it has 3 rows and 4 columns.\nNumbers that appear in the rows and columns of a matrix are called elements of the matrix. In the above matrix, the element in the first column of the first row is 21; the element in the second column of the first row is 62; and so on.\nStatisticians use symbols to identify matrix elements and matrices.\nMatrix elements. Consider the matrix below, in which matrix elements are represented entirely by symbols.\nBy convention, first subscript refers to the row number; and the second subscript, to the column number. Thus, the first element in the first row is represented by A11. The second element in the first row is represented by A12. And so on, until we reach the fourth element in the second row, which is represented by A24.\nMatrices. There are several ways to represent a matrix symbolically. The simplest is to use a boldface letter, such as A, B, or C. Thus, A might represent a 2 x 4 matrix, as illustrated below.\nAnother approach for representing matrix A is:\nA = [ Aij ] where i = 1, 2 and j = 1, 2, 3, 4\nThis notation indicates that A is a matrix with 2 rows and 4 columns. The actual elements of the array are not displayed; they are represented by the symbol Aij.\nOther matrix notation will be introduced as needed. For a description of all the matrix notation used in this tutorial, see the Matrix Notation Appendix.\nTo understand matrix algebra, we need to understand matrix equality. Two matrices are equal if all three of the following conditions are met:\nEach matrix has the same number of rows.\nEach matrix has the same number of columns.\nCorresponding elements within each matrix are equal.\nConsider the three matrices shown below.\nIf A = B, we know that x = 222 and y = 333; since corresponding elements of equal matrices are also equal. And we know that matrix C is not equal to A or B, because C has more columns than A or B.\nThe notation below describes two matrices - matrix A and matrix B.\nA = [ Aij ]\nwhere i = 1, 2, 3 and j = 1, 2\nWhich of the following statements about A and B are true?\nI. Matrix A has 5 elements.\nII. The dimension of matrix B is 4 x 2.\nIII. In matrix B, element B21 is equal to 222.\nMatrix A has 3 rows and 2 columns; that is, 3 rows, each with 2 elements. This adds up to 6 elements, altogether - not 5.\nThe dimension of matrix B is 2 x 4 - not 4 x 2. That is, matrix B has 2 rows and 4 columns - not 4 rows and 2 columns.\nAnd, finally, element B21 refers to the first element in the second row of matrix B, which is equal to 555 - not 222.",

In Masechet Menahot (daf, or page 29a) the Sages taught that although their names are specified in the Torah, even Moshe was unable to identify each of them definitively. The Maharsha explains that this is because there are many such species and the differences between them are relatively small, to the extent that identifying them is difficult.\nEven the broad term sheretz is subject to different interpretations. In his commentary on the Torah, Rashi suggests that this is a term that encompasses all fine, small animals that crawl on the ground. The Ramban quotes Onkelos as explaining that the fact that these animals are constantly in movement is what gives them this distinct name.\nThe Mishnah on today\u2019s daf discusses those animals whose skin is considered to be flesh, i.e., it is soft and tender, so that with regard to the laws of ritual defilement they are treated like flesh. Such creatures include, for example, the skin of human beings, skin of the domestic pig, the skin of the hump of a young camel, and the skin of the head of a young calf. Rabbi Yohanan ben Nuri includes all eight of the sheratzim mentioned above, but the Tanna Kamma (=first) limits this rule to four of them \u2013 the anakah, the ko\u2019ah, the leta\u2019ah and the homet.\nAs noted above, we cannot be certain of the identification of these animals. Nevertheless, most of the commentaries agree that they are reptiles. Common identification suggests that \u2013\nthe anakah is the Gekkonidae\nthe ko\u2019ah is the varanus\nthe leta\u2019ah is the Eremias guttulata\nthe homet is the Trachylepis vittata\nHullin 124a-b - Changing the subject\nNot all situations of tum'ah (ritual defilement) are created equal.

Since its beginning, the community college program has been regarded as a significant part of the higher education system in the U.S. A formal definition of community colleges is expressed as follows:\nThe term community college has also been used interchangeably with terms such as \u201cjunior college\u201d, technical colleges and alternative colleges (Santos & Santos, 2006, p. 38). All indications are that community colleges are perceived as separate, but yet connected to the conventional four-year college system.\nAs Santos and Santos (2006) explain, community colleges make provision for \u201ccomprehensive curricular offerings\u201d inclusive of \u201cacademic transfer preparation, vocational-technical education, continuing education, developmental education and community services\u201d (pp. 38-39). By the 1990s, community colleges became increasingly linked to vocational and workforce training and development (Santos & Santos, 2006). According to Baum, Little and Payea (2011), community colleges are perceived as \u201cthe access point to higher education for many students\u201d (p. 1).\nIn particular, access to higher education in the U.S. continues to be a problem as the socio-economically disadvantaged can rarely afford the high cost of tuition at accredited four-year colleges. Lower tuition and lower admission requirements have always made community colleges an alternative to this underserved population of Americans aspiring to achieve a post-secondary education. For the most part, students entering community colleges do so with a view to transferring over to a four-year college eventually (Beach, 2010).\nConventional wisdom dictates, that once a student completes a two-year college degree and can ...Download file to see next pagesRead More\n(\u201cComp.

C and many researchers also feel that mosaics may have origins in imitating the various carpets and tapestries that abounded. (Anthony 27)\nThis paper will discuss three such mosaics: the aspe and choir at San Vitale, the Deesis Mosaic of Christ flanked by the Virgin Mary and St. John the Baptist and Christ enthroned, the apsidal mosaic in the basilica of Saint Paul\u2019s. Each of these is representational of their religious affiliation as well as their historic and cultural context in which they were created. There is also a sense of humility when faced with these works. The creation of the mosaic itself is somehow representational of the many facets of the art and of the religious tradition it represents. While certainly lacking in depth of filed and light/shadow, the mosaics represent in this sense a divine use of an inner light, a creativity in the weaving of the image that can be achieved in no other art form.\nOne author refers to this Inner Light as, \u201cThe vibrancy of effect produced by decidedly broken color creates a definite esthetic stimulant which in the right surroundings, quickens religious emotion\u201d (Anthony 37). The juxtaposition of varying pieces of glass and fragments of tile create a quality that the mind sees almost as moving and alive, something that seems to touch the soul and heart as well as the eye. This resonance lends itself well to the feeling of spiritual and religious passions. The figures represented are perceived as symbolic icons, which already produces an immediate religious invocation only to be enhanced further by mosaic\u2019s shapes and often brilliant colors.\nThe first mosaic under discussion is found in the Basilica of San Vitale located in Raveena, Italy.

        "raw_content": "Anything might have some affection on woman\u2019s fertility and to be honest, it is barely possible to predict how long it will take for anyone to get pregnant. But finding as much as possible that relevant information is always the best place to begin though. And no one can know for sure, perhaps you may be welcoming a little angel into this world. It is clear that trying to have a baby is an exciting time. But how to know where should you start and how to improve your chances of conceiving? By the way, is there anything you can be doing to get pregnant faster? Here are some tip you might find useful.\nThis tip might sound a little bit silly and obvious at the same time, but you would definitely be surprised at how often experts advice to have sex as often as they can. I mean, it should be regularly. If you are only having sex once in a blue moon and then wondering why you are still not pregnant, you are probably not doing it often enough to be in with a proper chance.\nFun is the best way to happiness\nYou should never be nervous about turning sex into a chore, just be sur to make it fun. Having sex every two to three days is a good way to keep things spontaneous without missing that sought-after ovulation window. You might want to find the new best position. In fact, different sexual positions increase your chances of conceiving.\nExact dates when you are ovulating\nIf you want your chances of conceiving be as high as possible by having sex when you are at your most fertile, then finding out when you ovulate is the best way. Having sex both on and during the few days before this date gives you the best chance of conception.\nObviously, if you are trying to get pregnant, you have been reading about the best ways to increase your chances to become pregnant as you are doing it right now. Make sure you know which facts are true and which are false. There is no need to waste your time on useless tricks.\nHealthy food \u2013 better chances for sure\nPeople with healthy diets are much more likely to conceive. Even a regular consumption of fruit, vegetables and pulses is associated with far higher levels of fertility.\nIt is quite clear that being over or under weight might affect your chances of conceiving because too much or too little body fat can affect your cycle, which in turn can influence your ability to conceive.\nSmoking is no good in any case, including this\nIt will be much better if you will quit smoking for your best chance of conception. Cigarettes contain lots of chemical nasties that can affect the reproductive organs and decrease the chances of conception for both men and women. So yeah, drop it.\nJust pass on alcohol\nIt is a fact that everyone knows, if you are pregnant, alcohol is not for you. But if you are just planning to become pregnant, you still should not forget that it would be better to avoid alcohol too. By the way, it applies not only to women, it applies to men too because drinking alcohol excessively can also affect the quality of sperm.\nThere is quite a chance it will be hard because you probably want to be pregnant right about now, just because everyone else in the world is pregnant, by the way, your family keeps asking you whether you are expecting and with all that testing the consistency of your cervical mucus, you do not have much time for relaxation.\nGetting pregnant needs both of you\nNever forget you have a partner, who can be pretty useful too. Giving up smoking is included, reducing alcohol intake and losing weight if he is overweight.\nPrevious article Common bathing problems solved 105",

        "raw_content": "A quick and easy way to assign materials to a large group is to assign them by group. Any user who is associated to the group will be sent the task to complete. This is important to remember not only when setting up your groups, but also when assigning out tasks by group.\nMaterials that are available for task assignment include:\nBest Practice Assessments (BPAs)\nIf a task is assigned out to a group, the task can only be unassigned from the group, not an individual user in that group.\nIf you add a user to a group and they complete training and then they are removed from that group and added to a new group with the same training assignments, they will have to complete the training again. For example, if you have an individual in group A and they complete the training on \"Security Awareness\" and then you remove that individual from group A and add them to group B, who also has the \"Security Awareness\" training, then that user will be required to take that training again.\nIf a user is a member of group A and completes a training as part of that group and is then added to group B who has the same training assignments (but the user is STILL a member of group A) then that user will not automatically be required to retake the training.\nIf a user is added to a group, that user will be assigned all \"Active\" training that group has been assigned, seeing as that they are no longer a member of another group where they have previously completed that training.\nIf you assign a task to a user individually and they complete it, and then add that individual to a group with the same task assignment, that user will not be assigned the task again.\nHow to Assign Tasks\nTo assign material by group, follow the steps below:\nSelect the material you'd like to assign; in this case, we'll assign a training topic.\nChoose a training topic.\nScroll to the bottom of the training material and select \"Add Recipients\" in the \"Recipients\" box.\nWhen prompted to add recipients, select \"Group\" from the drop down menu.\nYour existing groups will be displayed. Select the group that you would like to assign the material to.\nYour selection will be saved in the list below. At this point you can select more groups or individual users, using the same drop down previously used.\nSelect the save button. Your page will refresh with a notification that the recipients have been added to the material.\nScroll to the bottom of the material to review the recipients. Your group will be included.\nClicking on the group provides detailed information about the status of the material for each user assigned to the group.\nTo send notifications to each user informing them of a task they must complete, the material must be activated. In the blue bar located at the top of the training, click on \"Activate Course\". A pop up will show you how many users will be sent a task notification and ask you to verify that this is your intention.\nOnce activated, the assignment is complete. Each user will receive their notification. Additional groups or users may be added to the material while in the Active status, as needed.",

        "raw_content": "Kelly Ann Savage is Free!\nDear Supporters of Kelly Savage,\nWe are absolutely thrilled to share that Kelly Savage was released from prison last week!!! Governor Jerry Brown commuted Kelly\u2019s Life Without Possibility of Parole (LWOP) sentence in December 2017, making her eligible for parole. Kelly was then granted parole in July 2018 and released on November 5, 2018.\nAs many of you know, it is extraordinarily difficult for someone with an LWOP sentence to challenge their sentence in the courts or have their sentence commuted. Critically, in his last months in office, Governor Brown has increased the rate of commutations and pardons, giving dozens of people sentenced to die in prison a chance at freedom.\nKelly\u2019s release is, in large part, due to your grassroots support. In his statement on commuting Kelly\u2019s sentence, Governor Brown referenced the thousands of people who signed Kelly\u2019s petitions, demonstrating strong community support for her release. For this, we send you a heartfelt thank you. We also greatly appreciate the organizations that were critical to securing this amazing and unlikely victory. During her 23 years of incarceration, Free Battered Women, the California Habeas Project, Morgan, Lewis, & Bockius, the California Coalition for Women Prisoners (CCWP), and Survived & Punished, all contributed to the grassroots organizing and legal advocacy that made Kelly\u2019s release possible. Kelly\u2019s extraordinary courage, strength of spirit, and dedication to serving her community were central to her fight for freedom.\nKelly\u2019s case exemplifies a terrifying pattern of the criminalization of survivors of domestic and sexual violence. The vast majority of people in women\u2019s prisons are survivors. Many were targeted by police and prosecutors for surviving conditions of violence. Criminalizing survivors who are mothers for violence enacted by their batterers, which was the case for Kelly, is particularly destructive. We cannot end domestic violence in our communities without addressing the ways that the criminal punishment system is a central organizer of gender violence.\nKelly\u2019s release marks an important milestone for Survived & Punished. Along with the release of Marissa Alexander and Nan-Hui Jo, Kelly\u2019s freedom completes all three defense campaigns that originally brought S&P organizers together in 2016. Community organizing has been key in supporting the freedom of many criminalized survivors of violence like Kelly. In solidarity, we urge you to visit #FreeThemCA to sign petitions to support the freedom of more survivors. We also ask that you join us in supporting CCWP\u2019s #DropLWOP campaign to end life without parole sentencing in California.\nFinally, please join Kelly\u2019s family and friends by contributing to a fundraiser to help get her on her feet now that she is released: bit.ly/FundKelly\nOnce again, thank you very much for your signatures, supportive messages, and for raising awareness about Kelly\u2019s case. You have made all the difference.\nPhoto above: Kelly Savage & Colby Lenz the day Kelly was released from prison, November 5, 2018.\nNancy Rubinstein\ton November 18, 2018 at 4:03 pm\nI\u2019 so delighted that Kelly is finally out! I\u2019ve been corresponding with her for 12 years now, and we\u2019ve worked together on several projects. I had NO idea she was getting out so soon. And it\u2019s awesome!\nNick\ton November 21, 2018 at 1:17 pm\nWe have ben pen pals the entire time. I am so happy she finally gets to live life free. I pray she finds peace, love and joy.",

        "title": "The Witch in the Window \u2013 Terror Spective",
        "raw_content": "Unrated (equal to PG-13 for imagery, thematic elements, and language) \u2013 1hr 17min\nDirected by Andy Mitton\nStarring Alex Draper, Arija Bareikis, Charlie Tacker\n12-year-old Finn (Tacker) has his mother Beverly (Bareikis) at her wits\u2019 end, so she sends him off to Vermont for the summer to live with his estranged father Simon (Draper) while he works on a house-flipping renovation. As they repair the home, Simon attempts to repair his broken relationship with his maturing and increasingly cynical son, but a sinister spirit that resides in the house has its own plans in mind for the pair.\nThe Witch in the Window is just as much a dramatic presentation as it is a supernatural thriller, if not more so. For the first half, the paranormal elements take a back seat to an exploration of the aftermath of divorce, the insecurities of parenthood, and the struggles of youth being confronted by a harsh and complicated world. However, when the ghostly business takes the wheel, it takes the wheel.\nI\u2019ve been expecting big things from Andy Mitton ever since I stumbled upon a gem titled YellowBrickRoad years ago. While not universally well-received (maybe it was the CGI FX that were over-ambitious for its budget? To me, it was one of the best horror offerings of 2011), it was comprised of the kind of distinctive elements that provide a filmmaker their own unique style. Not until six years later was it followed up with We Go On, an enjoyable effort that had something of a wandering narrative.\nWith The Witch in the Window, Mitton has created his most fully realized film to date. The story is engaging, the father-son dynamic at the center of the proceedings feels authentic, the pace is brisk, it does a lot with a little, and the themes of the plot all tie together into a satisfying whole. The movie flows so effortlessly that its 77 minutes were over in a proverbial blink. This is his first solo directorial effort without collaborator Jesse Holland, and while the more overt and hallucinatory horror elements are missing here, The Witch in the Window is strong from start to finish.\nThis is greatly assisted by the two performances at the core of the film. Alex Draper and Charlie Tacker, as unsure father and emotionally distant son, make for a low-key yet natural duo that provide the foundation for the story. Despite the shattered-family subject matter and supernatural goings-on, they never resort to hysterics and melodrama in their depiction of a father trying desperately to connect with his nearly-teenage son and that son wanting but struggling to trust and love his dad. So when the malevolent specter takes the stage, it hits with an appropriate amount of impact.\nHowever, now it\u2019s time to pick the nits. The premise upon which Finn is sent off in the first place portrays his mother in a rather unsympathetic light. If that were the intention, then fine, but I got the impression that it wasn\u2019t meant to be the case. I mean, if she\u2019s that thoroughly rattled over her maturing son\u2019s budding curiosities about a complex world, she has bigger problems to which she\u2019s unaware. None of this is ever addressed or resolved, but given the unusually short runtime, a few minutes could have been devoted to better exploring this corner of the story. Nothing is ruined, by any means, and I generally don\u2019t ask for more movie because I invested myself that much in its characters, so even this critique is a form of back-handed praise.\nThat said, The Witch in the Window, for being one of the more subtle haunted house movies I can recall, contains what I\u2019d consider a pitch-perfect spine-chilling scene. Not much gets a verbal \u2018Oh damn!\u2019 out of me, especially since there\u2019s virtually no violence or gore to speak of. It\u2019s a masterfully crafted moment and, like YellowBrickRoad did, has me eagerly anticipating Andy Mitton\u2019s next horror effort.\nThe Witch in the Window gets a rating of\nNext Post On the Radar \u2013 Braid\nPrevious Post Veronica",

        "title": "Anti-Puritan: Go-ocracy Rewritten",
        "raw_content": "I have decided to re-write portions of the original go-ocracy post in order to make upgrades to the design. For the original article, click here.\nFirst choice: Mayfield's legal system.\nEthen's legal system.\nNo one player may capture more than 20% of the territory in a given county. In one state, up to 25 players per million inhabitants may play the game. If there are more than 10 applicants, new players are added on a first-come, first-served basis.\nInstead of a single supreme court there are multiple competitive courts, each of which can fulfill the role of a supreme court according to a process of selection. The rest of the time when an individual court is not fulfilling this role, it fulfills the role a district court might normally fill. There is no circuit court level.\nA supreme court is a private entity funded by whomever wants to fund one. A single one can be corrupted, but a competition cannot. Allow me to explain.\nSay there are 94 district courts. Each player fills out a card with a rank ordering of 48 preferences from most preferred (1) to least preferred (48). There is always at least one guaranteed overlap. The number of rank ordered preferences is equal to 50% plus 1 if the total number of registered supreme courts is an even number, and 50% rounded up if it is an odd number. Thus, there is always one overlap, and exactly one.\nNow you may object and say, \"but what is to stop someone from being tried in a biased court?\" Competition. Think about it. Let's us say that you run a terribly biased supreme court. Well that will get you ranked at the top of someones list, but it will get you ranked at the bottom of their political opponent's list. The overlap is the one who gets the business, and so every court is competing to be as unbiased as possible in order to get business. The court that gets the business gets a voucher from the state, and gets paid. The one that does not get the business does not get paid. Thus, all referees compete on neutrality.\nFederal laws, aka., game rules are proposed in a parliament, but then they go directly to the people for voter approval. All approvals are temporary since they are additions to the existing constitution of rules. New constitutional rules may be created but the original ones may not be repealed. The length of approval depends on the level at which they are passed. Like this;\nFor each percentage above 50%, take the percentage above 50%, multiple by 100 and divide by 2 to get a number of years n, to which the integer 2 is added, and then rounded up.\n.65 - .50 = .15\n15/2 = n\nn + 2 is 9.5\n9.5 rounded up is 10 years.\nThe new game rule shall be in effect 10 years, and then automatically expire.\nNew rules are tested out like this. Rules that work well are resubmitted for voter approval whenever they expire. Any formula can be used. The point is to make federal laws temporary so that meddling in game play is kept to a minimum, and system diversity preserved.\nHow The Federal Government is Appointed\nUsing a process similar to the one described for the supreme court, a selection process occurs for who shall be appointed to a unicameral elected House of Game Players.\nOne player files a \"Notice of Argument\" against another. The two players fill out rank-ordered lists of who they would chose as a neutral third party. Instead of having players vote for federal representatives the format is like a series of fights where a third party is chosen for each argument. One does not seek power in this system, one cooperates with another player to choose a neutral player for power. Typically, strong players will choose weak or distant players as their third parties.\nJust like when choosing an arbiter, when each player is choosing a representative, each of them makes a list of rank-ordered preferences with 50% + 1 of the members in the system. Each time a player is selected for a seat in the House a vote is recorded for that player. No more than one notice of argument may be filed per player with any other player. The 100 players with the highest number of votes fill the seats of the House. Law making then proceeds just like it would with a regular parliamentary system, except that bills must be approved by the direct vote of a majority of the population in accordance with the procedure outlined in Part III.\nDiscovery of a Method\nThe definition of a republic has never been fully clear, and has always relied on some assertion that republics differed from direct democracies because they upheld the ethical principle of individual rights, and that republics have representative rather than direct rule. While this distinction is technically correct, (rights vs. majority rule, representative vs. direct), it lacks precision and specificity. It is much simpler to say the difference between a democracy and a republic is that the former is simply a game-based form of government, while the latter has the game subject to a referee and rules. Viewing republics as systems built on games brings a remarkable clarity to political science, and also shows the way forward to developing other designs for systems, possibly even communist republics that actually work. It also allows the introduction of predictive elements, since games can be modeled with AI, can be played at a small scale before being played at a large scale, and can be designed iteratively. This opens the door to knowing in advance whether or not your communist revolution will work, or at least knowing that it has a pretty good chance of working. For ethical reasons complex systems must be simulated beforehand, and game design bridges the gap between theory and praxis. It is not morally acceptable to try a system without proof that it will work, and games modeled with AI can provide that proof. Marxism could never be as ethical as this, since no amount of words can compensate for observation of game play. The Founding Fathers were on essentially the right track before being derailed by the charlatan or Trier. If the deadbeat had known what he was doing he would have given us a constitution instead of a manifesto.\nFurthermore, the whole point of a game-based political system is the rules. Having a game that decides how power is allocated suppresses the natural tendency of humans to engage in a violent struggle for power, since the power hungry do not really want to risk their lives to get it, and the game itself provides an excuse for the much more important introduction of constitutional rights, since rights are limits on game play, and keep them game working by limiting its viciousness. Seen in this light the game itself is simply the brilliant excuse for the rule of rights. Laws are restrictions on the people, but game rules are restrictions on the state, and that is wonderful. Games give you an excuse for rights.\nWith all of this knowledge we now understand that the correct way to seek a greater perfection of government is an iterative method that involves a sequence of events. First a literal game is developed, and it is played at a small scale with different individuals forming the three elements of any republican game; (a.) players/parties etc., (b.) referees (supreme court). and (c). the people who give their consent to be governed. The game is played in real life so that the kinks can be ironed out and the rules perfected. This is done for any new republican design. Ideally, the first step would involve a massively multiplayer online game that includes things like virtual currency and allows for bribes and side economies in order to predict the effects of corruption on the system. Once this is done, the second step is building a city-state to perform further real life analysis. And once that is done then, and only then, can you implement things at a larger scale. But something tells me revolution will never be necessary if your system is truly an improvement over the status quo, since it will be wildly popular by then anyway, and have proven results.\nA form of patchwork is the ideal outcome of this. That is, a world where a thousand city-states compete for citizens, operating under a hundred different forms of government. Not a utopia of some worldwide monolithic communist dictatorship, from which no one can escape, but a series of competing systems where escape is the very essence of it all.\nRepublics are political systems controlled by a game that decides who gets power. The game is elections. The Supreme Court is the referee. The Constitution is the rules. The whole thing is worshiped by the American right, proving that anything becomes sacred if there is enough dust on it.\nCapitalism is an unconstructed game \u2014 by unconstructed I mean that it has no designer because it self-assembles. Near as I can tell there are only three types of political systems on Earth; (1) hierarchies, (2) \"games\" (republics), and (3) \"anarcho capitalism.\"\nLeft and right are spooks; there is only degrees of game. There are communist societies that act fascist, just like there are \"liberal monarchies.\" The reason you apply the concept of left and right to the world is because the game of democracy produces two players as an inevitable consequence of its internal game rules. Two is the number that accrues the maximum amount of power in a competitive game without merging with the last remaining enemy. If there were three parties one of them would eventually consolidate into one of the two parties, since a larger party would co-opt it to get more votes. Thus, the number of parties is always exactly two, and no more. All other parties either don't matter or are in the process of being absorbed. In parliamentary democracies the third parties always join one faction or another. There are two major parties in a democracy for the same reason that if you played a Chess game with three parties one of the players would join with another against the third, eliminate the third, and then go on to battle each other, leaving only two in the final round. In contrast to a majority rule system, players govern their clients directly, and do not share power with anyone else, and in contrast to the layers of majority rule that comprise a federal republic, the only place majority rule exists is the top level, and there are no elections to get there, unless you count being in \"the top 100\" of non-threatening preferences an election.\nMeta Rules of Republican Game Design\nThere are essential principles that govern the development of all political systems based on games. These principles are meta rules, meaning \"rules governing the construction of rules.\" The first two of these are that (1), the system must be based on the consent of the governed, that (2), the people must not be intimidated by power, and that (3), no permanent winner must ever emerge. From these three meta rule all other rules flow, for example;\nIn a democracy the consent of the governed is obtained through votes, while in a go-ocracy it is obtained through delegation. Consent is essential, otherwise you do not have a free society. Even anarcho capitalism contains an element of consent by creating a transferable property in justice.\nNext, you must prevent the usage of coercion against individual citizens by players or political parties of the game. In the past, political parties would beat up voters and send them to the polls to vote over and over again. Voter registration combined with the secret ballot was used to put an end to this practice. Political parties still use handouts to buy votes, and immigration is used to manipulate the outcome of elections. One particular political party in America has even at one time in history or another used gangs to ethnically cleanse Whites from their neighborhoods, or used White supremacist organizations to intimidate Black voters!\nAh, the good ol' Democrats.\nThe problem with introducing a game where the pieces on the board must give their consent is that a dynamic tension is created between the needs of power and the laziness of the citizen. This problem exists in all game-based systems, whether democracy or otherwise, but manifests differently depending on the system. In a go-ocracy it will be more necessary than usual to prevent political players from having their own police powers or armies, since territory is what is being argued over rather than positions of power. Thankfully, in a go-ocracy it is unlikely that immigration would be used for political purposes. A go-ocracy should be free of majoritarian politics, and thus, of a two-party system. With multiple players on the board it is unlikely they could get away with manipulating demographics, and with the consent of the governed being defined in terms of space rather than popular will, the individual citizen can delegate for immigration restrictions to prohibit illegal immigrants on their property, the property of anyone who delegates to the same player, and all the public property of streets and thoroughfares in between those parcels. This aspect of space over leadership shifts society from the stated preference system of democracy to a revealed preference system. A liberal might vote to bring in immigrants to someone else's neighborhood, but never his own backyard. Go-ocracy is therefore a form of republic based on revealed preference rather than virtue signaling, since all delegations concern one's own property, taxes, and benefits. It would probably be substantially libertarian.\nLots of other rules are actually restrictions on intimidating the citizenry. If free speech is compromised then the voter has an incentive to vote for the violent overthrow of the government. The right to bear arms raises the cost of violating the rights of game players. If you think guns are fruitless against modern armies then you have not been paying attention to Americas foray in Afghanistan, and the success of the Taliban at holding back the worlds most powerful army.\nRights are economic; they raise the cost of overthrowing the game (the right to bear arms), or prevent the development of perverse incentives (free speech), or get voters to behave more rationally (separation of church and state), prevent black mail (right to privacy), keep certain things neutral (eliminating the spoils system), etc.\nLastly, no permanent winner must be allowed to emerge, or the system will convert to a dictatorship. A one-party state eventually captures the referee, (the Supreme Court) destroying the game, and foreclosing the possibility of a future challenger to power. The first aspect of democracy is there there are elections at regular intervals. A government seat is never held permanently. The second feature is term limits. A nation should have party term limits as well, just to be on the safe side. If a party holds power for too long it should automatically lose the majority after a fixed period of time. In a go-ocracy similar procedures will be needed. The game will need to have a \"partial reset\" every year, where all territory not held through delegation or capture is uncaptured and played over again, and a \"hard reset\" where all territory is released once ever four years. It will also need \"player term limits\" where no one player can hold a piece of territory for more than, say, 12 years concurrently, and where after 12 years someone else must capture that territory for at least 2 years. Both parties and players themselves should be limited, so that every 75 years a political party/player is dissolved and new parties/players given the chance to enter the board.\nAny other game-based political system will need analogous rules for its design. These problems will spontaneously emerge as a consequence of game play, and you will need to develop rules and rights to fix that. Every set of constitutional rights will differ based on the game chosen for selecting leaders, but similar patterns will abound with all of them.\nThe point this entire article is to demonstrate one possible configuration for the design of an alternative republic, in order to fire the imagination of the reader, and encourage them to develop their own alternative designs.",

        "raw_content": "Elliot Smalley\nSuperintendent of the South Carolina Public Charter School District\nIn his first year as superintendent, Elliot has established a clear sense of urgency around the need for excellent schools in South Carolina. With a relentless belief in all kids\u2019 potential, Elliot and his team have centered on three strategic priorities: 1) authorizing great charter schools, 2) ensuring access and equity for all students, and 3) growing what works. Previously, he served as Chief of Staff for Tennessee\u2019s Achievement School District (ASD) from 2012 to 2015, where he led the ASD\u2019s communications and outreach efforts and played a key role in developing the ASD\u2019s start-up and long-term strategy. During his time in Tennessee, the number of ASD schools grew from zero to 29 and catalyzed the improvement of Priority (bottom 5%) schools in Memphis and Nashville.

        "raw_content": "Lieberman: Pause Islamic center project near ground zero\nDevelopers should \"put the brakes\" on a planned mosque near the site of the 9/11 attacks in New York City, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) said Tuesday.\nLieberman, an independent senator who caucuses with Democrats, endorsed a pause on the building of an Islamic center and mosque near ground zero, joining some Republican lawmakers and conservative activists who have railed against the project.\n\"I'd say I'm troubled by it, but I don't know enough to say that it ought to be prohibited,\" Lieberman said on \"Imus in the Morning\" on the Fox Business Network. \"But frankly I've heard enough about it and read enough about it that I wish somebody in New York would just put the brakes on for a while and take a look at this.\"\nMany top Republicans have condemned the project since plans to construct a Muslim community center several blocks away from the site of the former World Trade Center were approved by a community board in late May. Outside groups of conservative activists, and even the Anti-Defamation League, have criticized the Islamic center as disrespectful to victims of the attacks, since the al Qaeda-affiliated attackers were Muslims. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a strong supporter of the center, has said \"if we are so afraid of something like this, what does that say about us?\"\nA New York City agency denied an existing property \"landmark\" status as opponents of the Islamic center had asked, clearing the way for the new center's construction.\nMost Democrats have been quiet on the issue, while some others have condemned Republicans for their opposition to the project.\nLieberman, who is an Orthodox Jew, noted that while places of worship should enjoy a special status in the U.S., outreach to victims' families \"obviously hasn't worked.\"\n\"If the people building this large Islamic center are just looking to build a large facility \u2014 a house of worship and center \u2014 in New York, why so close to 9/11, with all the sensitivity associated with that?\" he asked.\nSome of the potential 2012 Republican candidates for president have been among the project's most strident critics. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) has called the center an \"unnecessary provocation\" that \"stabs hearts.\" Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) has also called the plan a \"desecration\" of the site of the attacks. Other 2012 contenders, like Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R) and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R), have not spoken out on it.\nThe Connecticut senator, who's often been hawkish on national-security issues, has said the project should be put on hold until the developers of the project can be more fully vetted.\n\"I've also read some things about some of the people involved that make me wonder about their motivations. So I don't know enough to reach a conclusion, but I know enough to say that this thing is only going to create more division in our society, and somebody ought to put the brakes on it,\" he said. \"Give these people a chance to come out and explain who they are, where their money's coming from.\"",

        "raw_content": "Good Cop, Bad Cop: You Can\u2019t Train a Psychopath to be Compassionate, But You Can Destroy a Good Man\u2019s Compassion\nThe continuing surge of news stories about highly questionable police killings of unarmed civilians, is shocking enough on its own account. The victims are mostly young black or brown men but also women and even children. It is important to keep in mind that this pattern of police violence did not start with the advent of smart-phone video or police body or dashboard cameras. A new awareness of a problem is sometimes confused with the idea that it is a new problem. Understanding that police violence is a long-standing problem is made that much more disturbing by the plethora of video evidence streaming across social media on a daily basis.\nNew media do not create new problems, except for problems of unprecedented exposure or changed patterns of communication. They just facilitate greater awareness of problems we had been less aware of. The line between legitimate police enforcement of the law and illegitimate police use of power has always been blurred. But now, that blurry line is getting exposed in ways never before contemplated.\nI have watched countless videos of violent and near violent police-citizen encounters on social media over the past year or two. The most common element that comes through is a widespread emotional distancing of police from citizen \u2013 a distinct lack of empathy. Also, an apparent need to intimidate citizens expresses an effort to demonstrate absolute authority and control by officers. A near universal police disdain for persons of color detained on the street or in their vehicles, is routinely displayed. One of the most remarkable factors is what appears to be the unawareness by police of the impact that video exposure of their behavior may have.\nProfessional Pathology\nAs in any profession, you have good cops and you have bad cops. The good ones were good before they became cops. The bad ones may have started out bad, but others only became bad after years of disenchantment with humanity along with being socialized by their senior peers. What many critics of police do not understand is the impact over time that the experiences of being a peace officer can have on a person of good will. Years of exposure to the absurdity and depravity of some human behavior can taint an officer\u2019s outlook on life.\nThat officer may increasingly come to see every citizen through the lens of all the perverse situations he may have experienced in his career. In the course of time and action, compassion is lost and cynicism is gained. The process is reinforced by interaction with fellow officers with similar experiences and some who were psychopaths from the start.[1] This is very similar to the experience of the war-fighter of an invading force who is confronted daily with situations where he has no basis for distinguishing the enemy from the civilian population and quickly learns to treat everyone as the enemy. For the police officer, of course, the experience is not nearly as intense or concentrated in time.\nIt is common sociological knowledge that in every profession a certain \u201cin-group\u201d mentality develops from the specialized work and common experience of the members of the profession. We have certainly seen this phenomenon in the medical profession, among lawyers, and even restaurateurs. The consequences for each profession are different, some much more dangerous than others. If we don\u2019t like the patronizing attitude of a restaurant owner, or a poorly prepared meal, we simply don\u2019t go back next time. Not so in our relations with the police officer.\nAmong doctors and lawyers the concepts of \u201cpatient management\u201d and \u201cclient management\u201d suggest an attitude where the \u201cprofessional\u201d believes his special knowledge makes him superior to the person for whom he is supposed to render his professional services. The reluctance of some doctors to fully explain the details of a medical condition or procedure may have as much to do with retaining authority as with maximizing billable hours. This is reinforced by the patronizing attitude that assumes that the patient is not smart enough to understand the arcane knowledge of the physician. Such attitudes and practices are often amplified by communication with colleagues within the profession. Some \u201cgroup-think\u201d can even rise to the level of social contagion in any profession. Social contagion in police work can easily lead to violence.\nSelf Selection in the Psychopathology of \u201cEnforcement\u201d\nAs shown in police body and dashboard cameras or bystander smart phone videos, the behavior of citizens subjected to police violence most often posed no threat to the officer. Well, certainly no physical threat. The sure-fire way to stimulate police aggression or even violence upon yourself is to challenge an officer\u2019s sense of his own authority. In most cases that escalated to violence, the traffic stop was typically for something trivial. In many cases, any indicator of a lack of total subservience of the civilian to the officer is absolutely not tolerated. It becomes the basis for an escalated aggressiveness by the officer(s) followed by unjustified violence and too often, death. Even subsequent submissiveness or subservience is often not enough to satisfy the officer\u2019s threatened sense of power, and he may just keep beating the victim until another officer pulls him off. What gives?\nA student in an undergraduate sociology class I taught maybe twenty years ago reported in a classroom discussion, an observation I will never forget. I\u2019ve mentioned this in other posts related to police. This young Black potential officer noted that in the Los Angeles Sheriff\u2019s Academy most of the cadets who he knew from high school, \u201cloved to beat people up.\u201d Even at my advanced age, I too remember the guys in high school who looked for easy targets for their violence. Most of them expressed an interest in either the military or police as career choices. The process by which violence-prone individuals are self-selected into police work remains almost entirely ignored in the recruitment of candidates for law enforcement. It is even common for recruiters to seek out the most aggressive of candidates. The administration of law enforcement across this nation, instead of rooting them out, protects violent officers from discipline, dismissal, or prosecution. A police officer, of course, must be prepared for violence, but he need not prefer it. Too many do.\nThat brings me to the topic of the psychopathic personality. While some disagreement exists as to the exact components of this condition, certain elements, when present, are extremely dangerous to have in a police officer. One is a total lack of empathy with other human beings, combined with a learned capacity to feign empathy. Another is the pleasure the psychopath gains by inflicting pain on others \u2013 it\u2019s a matter of exerting total control over another living being. Serial killers are psychopaths; they exert absolute control by torturing and killing their victims without remorse. I see a similarity here with the behavior of the cop who escalates his aggression at the slightest hint of \u201cinsubordination\u201d in the civilian he has detained, continues well beyond any modicum of reason, and sees nothing wrong in his behavior.\nHigh Standards and Critical Functions\nSome experts who have used Robert Hare\u2019s checklist [2] to score politicians and chief executive officers of corporations for psychopathic traits have concluded that a disproportionate number of persons in authority are in fact psychopaths. The argument goes that some of the traits of the psychopath are quite useful in climbing the ladder of power in an organization, and in establishing and keeping control. Psychopaths are fixated on their own power and seek to expand it, unrestrained by any moral principles. That results in a higher proportion of psychopaths in such positions than in the general population. In a somewhat different way, police officers are in positions of authority, less so within their own organization than over an entire population. They are allotted great power and great discretion in exercising it. Since police officers carry weapons as \u201ctools of the trade,\u201d and psychopaths enjoy hurting people, maybe we should carefully screen candidates for police academies to eliminate psychopaths. I fear just the opposite has been happening for a long time. Unfortunately, too many rookies who start out as problem-solving peace officers, gradually lose much of their compassion and take on psychopathic behaviors.\nIn the company of skilled psychopaths and under conditions of high stress and occasional mortal danger, it is not so difficult for an initially good man or woman to become cynical, ruthless, and uncaring. A compassionate rookie cop can become a practicing psychopath even though he was not so in terms of his original personality. Much of such a transition to \u201cbad cop\u201d is perceived as a survival adaptation to terrible conditions. But in a police department, such collective behavior results from a contagion of violence. How else can we explain blatant cold-blooded murder committed with full knowledge of the fact that it is being videotaped? Many idealistic youth were trained to kill in Iraq or Afghanistan and came back quite disturbed by their experience. Those who easily took to killing were probably closer to the psychopath end of the scale. As with the high-school bully, neither should end up as police officers.\n[1] Typically, \u201cpsychopath\u201d and \u201csociopath\u201d are used to describe the same general personality disorder, a pathology characterized primarily by a ruthless desire to exert absolute control over, and inflict pain on living beings, a lack of empathy or compassion, little if any sense of right and wrong, and a learned skill in masking these traits. Psychopathy is sometimes linked with narcissism and Machiavellianism, and several other traits. See Wikipedia for Robert Hare\u2019s diagnostic Psychopathy Checklist.\n[2] An amusing, if disturbing, account of the struggle to understand psychopathy and the industry that has grown up around it, is told by Jon Ronson, The Psychopath Test: A Journey Through the Madness Industry. London: Penguin Books, 2011.\nPosted in Communication, Culture, ideology, Illusions, Social Issues\t| Tagged authority, compassion, corruption, empathy, in-group, intimidation, personal power, police acadamy, police violence, psychopathy, remorse, social contagion, social media, video\t| 3 Replies",

How far can the political process be taken, that will depend on how good the situation remains on the ground here,\u201d she said.\nSpeaking to reporters after inaugurating a bridge here, the chief minister said, \u201cFor ending the uncertainty and providing lasting peace in Jammu and Kashmir, everyone including the separatists should come forward and respond to the Home Minister\u2019s offer of dialogue to resolve Jammu and Kashmir issue and other problems of the state.\u201d\nDuring a two-day visit to the state last week to review the security situation and the ongoing suspension of security-related operations during Ramazan, Home Minister Rajnath Singh had said here that the Centre is ready to hold talks with all \u201cright-minded\u201d people in Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistan, but the neighbouring country should stop terror activities emanating from its soil.\nThe Chief Minister said everyone believed that Jammu and Kashmir is a political issue which cannot be resolved militarily.\n\u201cThis is a golden opportunity \u2026 it does not happen very often that (such an offer comes from) a very powerful Prime Minister. It was 18 years ago that cessation of operations happened during the time of (the then Prime Minister) A B Vajpayee. At that time, talks were held at the level of deputy PM (L K Advani) and the process seems to have been repeated again,\u201d she said.\nMufti said it was duty of all groups in the state to think about how to bring about peace and end the bloodshed.\n\u201cIt becomes a duty of all groups including Hurriyat to think about how to end the bloodshed in J-K which has undergone destruction in every sector for the last 30 years. Our education system has suffered, our development has suffered.\u201d\nTalking about the bridge which she inaugurated, the chief minister said it was to be completed in two years but it took three years.\n\u201cWe are not able to do the development works which we want to undertake due to the situation,\u201d she said.\nThe chief minister said, \u201cWe cannot force anyone but we definitely hope that they (Hurriyat) will take advantage of this offer.\u201d\nAsked about the possibility of the Center extending the unilateral suspension of operations beyond the fasting month of Ramzan, she evaded a direct reply saying the Prime Minister and the Home Minister will Review the situation and take a decision on it.\n\u201cI am fully hopeful that the Prime Minister and the Home Minister after reviewing the situation will take an appropriate decision on it,\u201d she said.\nThe PDP leader, who heads a state government in alliance with the BJP, said the common people have heaved a sigh of relief due to the suspension of operations during Ramazan. \u201cThe daily blood shedding has stopped and it has had a positive effect\u201d.\nShe, however, lamented that continued violence by militants during the Ramazan month was not helping the situation in the state.\n\u201cAs you see grenade attacks are taking place, weapon snatching bids are happening and security forces and police personnel are being attacked. These kind of acts deteriorate the atmosphere,\u201d she said.",

There\u2019s not a ton new with this machine, but what is new changes your experience for the better in meaningful ways.\nStarting with the build, it\u2019s stupid similar to the 910. Whereas the 910 had an aluminum body with a watchband hinge like on the Yoga Book, the Yoga 920 does as well. It\u2019s thin at a half-inch thick and weighs just 3-pounds which doesn\u2019t add a ton of extra heft to your bag. It\u2019s also just really pretty and is a pleasure to take to a coffee shop and show off.\nThe device can bend up to 360-degrees backward for tablet mode, 270-degrees for a tent mode, 180-degrees for drawing mode, and 90-degrees for a standard laptop mode. Folding the device feels very smooth and I haven\u2019t had any problems with the hinge which Lenovo is known for.\nThe display is gorgeous\nTouching on the display, it\u2019s a 14-inch touchscreen that features a 4K resolution. I have to say, if you\u2019ve never seen a 4K display before on a laptop, you\u2019re in for a treat. Never ever will you see an individual pixel with the naked eye and everything from text to images are pin sharp. Color reproduction tends to be on the more saturated side, but that\u2019s okay since I like a bit more pop. When I review a device\u2019s display, I expect it to wow me, and the Yoga 920\u2019s does.\nIf I get to have a 4K display, I don\u2019t mind less juice\nThe only problem with having such a high-resolution display is the drain of the battery. If this were a standard 1080p or even a 2K screen, the device could last longer during the day. However, I\u2019m finding I need to plug it in more often than I expected to. It\u2019s not entirely a problem since I can still get through a full day of use on the machine (anywhere from 6 1/2 hours and up), but I suspect things would be better if the display wasn\u2019t as good as it is.\nThat\u2019s not the say this is a major issue with 4K displays as the one on the Yoga 920 looks gorgeous. In fact, I really don\u2019t mind the trade-off in battery life since I get to look at an absolutely beautiful screen while it drains. And at the end of the day, if I simply need to carry around a charger with me all day to experience such a pretty picture to handle my workflow in, it\u2019s a small price to pay.\nMoving on to the rest of the laptop, the Yoga 920 sports a backlit keyboard that\u2019s comfortable to type on for long periods of time (trust me, I know what I\u2019m talking about when I say \u201ccomfortable for a long time\u201d); a trackpad that\u2019s decent in size and is precise enough to handle gestures and everyday operations well; a fingerprint sensor for Windows Hello; a power button along the side, a USB-3.0 port with two USB-C ports and a headphone jack; and very slim bezels surrounding the 4K display.\nIf there\u2019s a takeaway to anything I just said, it\u2019s the port array. I don\u2019t care what anyone says about USB-C being the future. I still have way too many USB-A cables and connected accessories that have yet to make the conversion to Type-C. Therefore, having just a single USB-A port on the Yoga 920 has proven to be very useful day-to-day since I don\u2019t have to yank out one of my dongles. Of course, as I make the transition to strictly using USB-C, there\u2019s two ports on the machine to help me do so. One charges the device and the other is dedicated to handling data, although both can perform this operation. Overall, you\u2019ll be satisfied with the IO selection on this laptop.\nThe Yoga 920 is fast, as it should be\nIn the case of nearly every laptop on the planet, it\u2019s what on the inside that counts. Lenovo packed Intel\u2019s 8th-generation Core i7 processor in our $1,799 review unit with 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of SSD storage. By 2017\u2019s standards, the Yoga 920 should be a screamer, and headed into 2018, it remains that way. Operations are zippy, 16GB of RAM is more than sufficient for heavy workloads, and even more taxing functions like video editing are a breeze on this machine. Mind you, you can\u2019t be running Premiere and Photoshop at the same time while you have thirty Chrome tabs open in the background, but it\u2019s a laptop \u2013 you shouldn\u2019t expect that anyway.\nYou can even try some light gaming on the Yoga 920 with the Intel UHD integrated graphics on board. I wouldn\u2019t go all-in on Halo or something, but lighter titles like Minecraft and Asphalt 8 run fine.\nDoodling with great performance on the Yoga 920 is also a thing. With the included Active Pen, Lenovo lets you draw directly on the screen or use it as a simple stylus. I haven\u2019t had any problems during my experience, although it\u2019s questionable whether the pen is actually all that useful unless you\u2019re someone who needs to draw or make 3D renderings on a daily basis.\nUnfortunately, there really isn\u2019t anywhere you can put the pen when you\u2019re done using it. Lenovo includes a sort of plastic holster that plugs into the USB-A port on the laptop that can hold the stylus for you, but other than that, you better keep an eye on it.\nThe fingerprint sensor for Windows Hello log-ins has been nothing short of consistent on the Yoga 920. The 910 I tested earlier this year couldn\u2019t log me in roughly 60% of the time. Therefore, it\u2019s nice to return to a proper sensor that can actually identify my print.\nWorth noting this time around is the webcam. I never tend to write about them since they do their job and that\u2019s it, but the Yoga 920\u2019s sensor is actually in the right spot this time: above the display. On the 910, it was below the screen which was everything less than ideal. Now, your Skype calls won\u2019t result in people telling you to blow your nose, if you get my drift.\nAs for speakers, Lenovo\u2019s JBL sound set on the bottom of the Yoga 920 isn\u2019t great. They\u2019re kind of tinny and don\u2019t get as loud as I\u2019d like, but there is some bass that saves them from total obliviation. Notably, like I said, the speakers are on the bottom of the 920, therefore blocking their full potential while using the machine as a typical laptop. It\u2019s really a shame Lenovo keeps doing this, so here\u2019s to hoping they figure something out next year.\nYou can scream at Cortana with the Yoga 920, but I don\u2019t\nNew to the Yoga 920 are far-field microphones. Why would you need them on a laptop? So you can operate Cortana from across the room. The feature works while the display is both on and off, although I have to admit I didn\u2019t use this feature beyond testing it to confirm it works. I don\u2019t personally use Cortana to perform tasks with my voice, but if you\u2019re that kind of person, the feature\u2019s there.\nAll in all, Lenovo has a great package when it comes to the Yoga 920. It has a gorgeous screen, excellent performance, a beautiful design, a perfect array of IO, a pen for additional input, and enough versatility to balance both play and productivity with the 2-in-1 form factor. If battery life were a bit better and the speakers sounded more pleasing, I\u2019d give this machine a 10/10. But hey, I guess they have to save something for the Yoga 930, amirite?\n2-in-1 Feature Laptops Lenovo News Reviews Yoga\nFace Unlock is Coming to the OnePlus 5\nAndroid Oreo is Now Rolling Out to the LG V30 in South Korea",

New technologies will enable the plant to reduce energy use, water use, and chemical emissions that are part of the painting process.\n\u201cHonda is committed to delivering products that have outstanding quality and low environmental impact,\u201d said Honda of America Mfg., Inc. COO Tom Shoupe. \u201cWith this new investment, our Ohio operations are once again raising the bar for quality and environmentally responsible manufacturing operations.\u201d\nHonda currently uses a 4-coat, 3-bake process, but will be eliminating one primer-coat curing oven for the new paint shop\u2019s more efficient 4-coat, 2-bake short process. A 2K waterborne primer designed exclusively for Honda will facilitate the shorter process, and, when combined with a waterborne base coat, will reduce volatile organic compounds emissions by nearly 66%.\nThe new paint line will also utilize \u201cdry-booth\u201d technology, which uses limestone dust instead of water to catch paint overspray. The change should reduce water usage at the plant by two million gallons annually, and will also eliminate over 255 tons of paint sludge, a waste byproduct of the current system. CO2 emissions will also be cut down by 18%, or 12,000 metric tons annually.",

        "raw_content": "Europe Plays the Wrong Movie\nBy S\u00fcmeyra Kele\u015f Yerkel\nIf Snowden could succeed at just being enough anti-Erdo\u011fan and leaking things putting his personality or the Turkish government in a tight spot, he could have higher chances of being embraced by Germany. Pity for him.\nDonald Trump\u2019s election as the US president is not the most surprising and worst thing we experience nowadays. Although Trump is the tabloid dimension of world politics, there is currently a bigger problem and scandal which is going unnoticed.\nEuropean countries, the so-called cradles of civilization, the advocates of democracy, are scandalously supporting and backing unscrupulous terrorists and their followers.What started as an \u201cAnti-Erdo\u011fan\u201d policy, especially since the Gezi Park protests, has now turned into a dangerous attitude supporting terror, a fact that should actually horrify the world, yet, tragically, seems as if nobody is aware or feels ashamed of.I do not intend to say there is no need to plead for Turkey\u2019s policy of investigating organizations and individuals who support and act on behalf of terrorism. This is already self-evident. The opposite would have been improper and peculiar. Is there any country on this planet which is not trying to counter domestic terrorism to provide security for its people and nation?However, that is not the point. The point is how Western countries inconceivably and scandalously embrace terrorists as a state policy.\nThere is an idiom in German, which says, \u201cI think I am in the wrong movie\u201d (Ich glaube ich bin im falschen Film) to describe a situation, which is totally incomprehensible and nonsensical. This idiom describes exactly the position of Europe, especially Germany, but also the position other pro-PKK European politicians and countries take currently on issues concerning Turkey.\nImagine there is a newspaper in your country (here the daily newspaper Cumhuriyet), which leaks official secrets on its front page. It is indeed an opposition media organization, but this does not matter in this case at all. Besides, the so-called leaked information is more a defamation against the state than representation of the truth. It was a story about trucks used by the MIT (National Intelligence Service of Turkey). The trucks were on a secret mission carrying humanitarian aid to displaced people in Syria.\nThe state of course investigated the responsible people, especially the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Can D\u00fcndar. However, foreign diplomats, the representatives of various nations in Turkey, attended the trial and took group selfies to show support for D\u00fcndar. This behaviour does not meet international standards of diplomacy. What is more, recently Germany gave him citizenship out of a clear blue sky. Since then, Can D\u00fcndar has been honoured with an award for freedom from the city government of Paris. It is also worth pointing out that he won a Freedom of Press Award.\nIf D\u00fcndar is a journalist, then, one wonders why Edward Snowden is charged with treason. Instead of being honoured with a German citizenship and awarded with a freedom of speech award, Snowden is imprisoned in an embassy for years without any attention from Western state leaders. Quite tragic. If Snowden could succeed at just being enough anti-Erdo\u011fan and leaking things putting his personality or the Turkish government in a tight spot, he could have higher chances of being embraced by Germany. Pity for him.\nYet, what are we supposed to do with ethical journalism when it comes to leaking official secrets? Is the leaking of official secrets something that be considered part of the freedom of the press? It is doubtful. If the criminal act committed by D\u00fcndar is considered a matter of freedom of press, then, how should we evaluate Snowden\u2019s case?\nGermany, in fact, generally seems to have no problem receiving all kinds of people looking to thwart democratically elected governments, including coup plotters, with open arms.\nFirstly, the man now referred to as President of Egypt, General Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, has been welcomed as a \u201cdemocrat.\u201d Sisi got no private lessons on democracy and human rights from top German officials, as it is often done enthusiastically with Turkish president Erdo\u011fan. It seems like Germany has sometimes a problem with elected presidents when it comes to coup plotters. Besides, el-Sisi has been \u201cdemocratized\u201d with a magic wand, namely a newspaper article by Germany. The same magicians apparently work to make a dictator out of Erdo\u011fan through media coverage. That is not how it should work with democracy and dictatorship.\nTake for instance the case of FETO (Fetullah G\u00fclen Terror Organization). Western countries again seem to be failing at taking the right position and supporting democracy, liberty, and freedom in Turkey. Germany opened its arms to the coup plotters, allowing them to remain in the country and seek political asylum. So, what was the fault of Syrian refugees? Was it that they were running for their lives and sought shelter in Europe?\nThe PKK and its affiliated terrorist organizations are responsible for at least 7 suicide attacks in the last two years in Turkey, and have killed more than 600 people, 377 of them from security forces. In the midst of intensified PKK violence, the HDP co-chair Figen Y\u00fcksekda\u011f said their party \u201cleans on the PYD\u201d, the Syrian branch of the PKK. HDP co-chair Selahattin Demirta\u015f openly praised an independent Kurdistan in Turkey and said, \u201cThere will be the reality of Kurdistan in the next century.\u201d\nHDP lawmakers also apparently never see any harm in attending PKK terrorists\u2019 funerals. There is clear evidence that HDP MPs and municipalities backed PKK terrorists. Consequently, they lost their immunity and then now face legal prosecution.\nUnsurprisingly, Germany was very reactionary, eager and supportive of the HDP politicians turning a deaf ear and blind eye to their ties to PKK.\nDoes it still make sense to re-emphasize that the PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by several states and organizations, including NATO, the European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany. A differentiation between \u201cmy terrorist\u201d and \u201cyour terrorist\u201d does not help to build world peace. Nor representing the operations against the PKK and its supporters as violations against the Kurdish people.\nWe believe we are in the wrong movie. The supposedly universal standards of democracy are upside down and hardly recognizable. A democratic state taking a hard line with terrorists and coup plotters is accused of being undemocratic, while criminals are welcomed and praised in Western democracies.\nS\u00fcmeyra Kele\u015f Yerkel\nS\u00fcmeyra Kele\u015f Yerkel holds a B.A. in History from Ankara University.

        "title": "Why most Amazon sellers fail to make the jump to selling information products?",
        "raw_content": "Okay, today we're going to be talking about something that's near and dear to my heart, and that is selling information products. We're also going to be talking about why it's very hard for Amazon sellers to make the jump from selling physical products on Amazon, to selling information products.\nFirst off, what is an information product? An information product is a product that's based around information that you know. It could be information on how to sell on Amazon, how to cook an amazing pot roast, or how to ride a motorcycle backwards blindfolded. It doesn't matter what you are teaching. An information product is based around knowledge that you have, or knowledge that you are able to get from somebody else and put into a productized format. Now there's a lot of mystique that goes into the idea of creating information products, and it's very alluring to think that you could create something that has no cost of goods associated with it, and sell it for a lot of money.\nThis is especially attractive to Amazon sellers who always have a cost of goods associated with their physical products that they're selling. The problem is not understanding that the two types of products, physical and information, are completely different, and customers see them in very different ways. Why are Amazon sellers so bad at making and selling information products? Well, typically Amazon sellers are not bad at creating the information product itself. Often the courses that they make and the products that they create are very in-depth, they are extremely valuable. The problem is really that they don't know how to sell the actual information.\nThe key to understanding this whole dilemma is understanding how physical products are sold and seen by customers, as well as how information products are sold and are seen by customers as well. Physical products have an inherent value in them. Somebody can see them, touch it, they can feel it, they can look at it and determine whether or not it's something that they need, want, desire or will relieve their pain. For example, if I have a need for a laptop computer, I'm going to go out and I'm going to go to a website to go and buy a laptop computer. I can see the picture of the computer. I know that when I get it I'm going to be able to touch it, feel it. I know what the speed is going to be. I know a lot about the product because it is physical and has its own inherent value just in the fact that it's physical.\nHowever, with an information product, there is no physicality to it. Everything is based off of whether or not the information that this product has is going to solve a particular pain or pleasure that I have or need. For example, a $5 e-book about how to sell more products on Amazon does not have any type of physical essence to it. The human brain, because it doesn't have that physical essence to it, has to convince itself why spending $5 on this particular e-book is going to benefit them when there's nothing physical about it. It's only the information that's inside of it that's going to benefit in some way.\nNow all that being said, you'll notice that when you are an Amazon seller and you're selling a product, you never have to convince your customer. How often have you had an e-mail from a customer asking you questions about a product that you are currently selling? Probably never. You just see e-mails coming in from Amazon letting you know that you sold a particular product. Well with an information product, typically if you're not selling via a webinar or a long-form sales page, you're going to get a lot of questions from customers, even if it is a $1 e-book. They need to know that there is value in the information that's going to solve their particular problem, or give them the pleasure that they need or desire.\nI can't tell you how many times I've sold a $697 course and had a ton of questions. Even more hilarious is selling a $20 e-book and getting 10 times as many questions from customers, as to why it will solve their particular need or pleasure. Any time you are selling an e-book or information product or online course, you are going to have to convey a ton of information. That requires good copywriting. It doesn't require good copywriting to sell products on Amazon. Amazon has a ton of [eyeballs 07:57], and by sheer statistics, you are going to be able to sell your product. Whereas with an information product, everything is on you to persuade the customer, to get the customer to the page, and to show them why they need your product.\nThis is where a lot of Amazon sellers fail.\nThey don't understand sales and marketing.\nThey don't understand copywriting.\nThey don't understand customer needs and desires, and don't know their customer enough to be able to convey why their course, as opposed to every other Amazon course out there, is the one that the customer needs right now, and will benefit from in the long run.\nIf you're going to sell a course, you need to really understand your customer, as well as you need to understand how sales, marketing, persuasion and copywriting work. It doesn't matter if you're going to be selling a $1 information product or a $1,000 information product, you're going to get questions from customers why they should spend their money on this information.\nYes, I know it doesn't make sense, but that's the way it works\u2026 and that's at least some reasons why most Amazon sellers fail miserably when it comes to selling their products.",

        "raw_content": "Filed under Front Slideshow, National News, NEWS\nSelena Kleber, News Managing Editor|September 26, 2018\nAnonymous sources are regularly used in media today, especially when there are repercussions. New York Times published this op-ed Sept. 5\nThe New York Times published a controversial and anonymous op-ed on Sept. 5. Mixed reactions surfaced after hearing it was written by a senior official in the Trump administration. Equally as controversial as the article\u2019s topic was the fact that its source was kept hidden. Why do news organizations use anonymous sources? Is it effective?\nThe op-ed asserts that senior officials within the administration are working to disrupt President Trump\u2019s agenda but still want the administration to succeed.\n\u201cI don\u2019t read the New York Times or anything, but I heard about the story,\u201d said an anonymous sophomore. \u201cThey use anonymous sources for this exact reason to prevent situations like this right now, to protect the source.\u201d\nIn this case, there was no reason to keep the source hidden. It was said by sophomore Shawn Gillepsy. No secret. When a person holds a high position in the White House and whose boss is the president of the United States, the repercussions are far more substantial.\nThe real question is whether people understand the reasons behind anonymity in media. Several Grady teachers gave their two cents on the topic.\n\u201cDo I think the general public understands? I just don\u2019t think they\u2019ve ever stopped to think about it,\u201d said 10th grade literature teacher Mary Villalpando. \u201cI don\u2019t think most people stop and think about it. That\u2019s the issue, people aren\u2019t questioning everything they\u2019re reading.\u201d Villalpando, herself, reads and checks different sources because she doesn\u2019t trust just one. She thinks not everyone does that.\nMario Herrera, AP Seminar teacher and debate coach, has a different theory that people are comfortable with confirmation bias.\n\u201cI think that we\u2019re in a place now where you have to see everything for it to be true, that\u2019s weird to me,\u201d said Herrera. \u201cI don\u2019t know that a virus exists \u2026 or I know they exist because I have a cold, not because I own a microscope.\u201d\nConcerning the need to use anonymous sources, the reaction varies from person to person, especially from the right and left wings of politics. Some argue that the New York Times Op-ed achieved nothing, was not effective and just resulted in President Donald Trump\u2019s suspicion of his officials. While others argue that keeping the source anonymous was the only way this voice could be heard and this point could be brought up.\nOn Sept. 5, President Trump tweeted, \u201cDoes the so-called \u2018Senior Administration Official\u2019 really exist, or is it just the Failing New York Times with another phony source?\u201d\nThe Times has a procedure to ensure credibility when it comes to anonymous sources. The reporter must know the identity of the individual and one high-ranking editor must approve. Accuracy of information presented by anonymous sources is always questioned. An anonymous person\u2019s identity must remain hidden under any circumstances for legal and protection purposes. Most news organizations follow a moral code and will not release names of victims of certain crimes or of minors involved or accused of crimes.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know that the New York Times reviewed the source, but I know we have something to be concerned about,\u201d said Herrera. \u201cSome fool\u2019s trying to take over the White House. We should be talking about it.\u201d\nThis is not the first time the Times has used anonymity. Kari Tupper publicly accused former Senator Brock Adams of Washington, of drugging and molesting her in 1988. The Times started getting calls from women reporting similar experiences and agreed to publish a story anonymously detailing their accounts. Adams denied the allegations.\nAs a part of the \u201cTime\u2019s Up\u201d movement, women were scared to come forth with allegations for fear of retribution until it was acceptable and more women joined in. It is irrefutable that it is difficult for victims of abuse to stand up.\nAn anonymous source either tells the truth or a lie. This cycle will continue. How can we hold stories accountable? Do we just trust? There is a balance between privacy protection and right for the public to know.\nOther stories filed under National News",

Also an opportunity to share and exchange your favorite healthy recipes.\nA Short Season for Cherries\nThe season for freshly picked cherries is short, usually no longer than a month. And in most parts of the country, that month is July.\nLike other dark red, blue and purple fruits and vegetables, cherries contain anthocyanins, phytonutrients that some experts believe may help reduce inflammation and may have antioxidant properties.\nBecause cherries are ripe when they\u2019re picked, this is one fruit that will be sweet and juicy whether you buy it at a supermarket or a farmers\u2019 market.\nThis classic French dessert looks fancy, but it is a cinch to make.\nMorning Oatmeal With Cherries and Pistachios\nSteep steel-cut oats the night before in boiling water for a quick breakfast treat.\nThis dairy-free smoothie serves well at breakfast or as an afternoon snack.\nMany versions of cold cherry soup originated in Hungary and Poland; this lighter version is made with drained yogurt instead of cream.\nCherry Cobbler With Almond-Buttermilk Topping\nCornmeal contributes texture, and almond and whole-wheat flours add nuttiness. For a gluten-free version, substitute almond meal or rice flour for the whole-wheat flour.\nRobert Reich: The Rise of the Wrecking-Ball Right\nRecently I debated a conservative Republican who insisted the best way to revive the American economy was to shrink the size of government. When I asked him to explain his logic he said, simply, \u201cgovernment is the source of all our problems.\u201d When I noted government spending had brought the economy out of the previous eight economic downturns, including the Great Depression, he disagreed. \u201cThe Depression ended because of World War Two,\u201d he pronounced, as if government had played no part in it.\nA few days later I was confronted by another conservative Republican who blamed the nation\u2019s high unemployment rate on the availability of unemployment benefits. \u201cIf you pay someone not to work, they won\u2019t,\u201d he said. When I pointed out unemployment benefits couldn\u2019t possibly be the cause of joblessness because there are now about five job seekers for every job opening, he scoffed. \u201cGovernment always makes things worse.\u201d\nGovernment-haters seem to be everywhere.\nCongressional Republicans, now led by House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, hate government so much they\u2019re ready to sacrifice the full faith and credit of the United States in order to shrink it.\nFred Branfman: If McCain Had Won\nDemocrats were united on one issue in the 2008 presidential election: the absolute disaster that a John McCain victory would have produced. And they were right. McCain as president would clearly have produced a long string of catastrophes: He would probably have approved a failed troop surge in Afghanistan, engaged in worldwide extrajudicial assassination and kidnapping, destabilized nuclear-armed Pakistan, failed to bring Israel\u2019s Benjamin Netanyahu to the negotiating table, expanded prosecution of whistle-blowers, sought to expand executive branch power, failed to close Guantanamo, failed to act on climate change, pushed both nuclear energy and a \u201cnuclear weapons renaissance,\u201d opened new areas to domestic oil drilling, failed to reform the financial sector enough to prevent another financial catastrophe, supported an extension of the Bush tax cuts for the rich, ignored the poor, and failed to lower the jobless rate.\nNothing reveals the true state of American politics today more, however, than the fact that Democratic President Barack Obama has undertaken all of these actions and, even more significantly, left the Democratic Party far weaker than it would have been had McCain been elected. Few issues are more important than seeing behind the screen of a myth-making mass media, and understanding what this demonstrates about how power in America really works-and what needs to be done to change it.\nJoe Nocera: The Journal Becomes Fox-ified\nIt\u2019s official. The Wall Street Journal has been Fox-ified.\nIt took Rupert Murdoch only three and a half years to get there, starting with the moment he acquired the paper from the dysfunctional Bancroft family in December 2007, a purchase that was completed after he vowed to protect The Journal\u2019s editorial integrity and agreed to a (toothless) board that was supposed to make sure he kept that promise.\nFat chance of that. Within five months, Murdoch had fired the editor and installed his close friend Robert Thomson, fresh from a stint Fox-ifying The Times of London. The new publisher was Leslie Hinton, former boss of the division that published Murdoch\u2019s British newspapers, including The News of the World. (He resigned on Friday.) Soon came the changes, swift and sure: shorter articles, less depth, an increased emphasis on politics and, weirdly, sometimes surprisingly unsophisticated coverage of business.\nNew York Times Editorial: Blundering Toward Recession: Beyond the Debt Stalemate\n\u201cCatastrophic.\u201d \u201cCalamitous.\u201d \u201cMajor crisis.\u201d \u201cSelf-inflicted wound.\u201d Those are some of the ways Ben Bernanke, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, has described the fallout if Congress fails to raise the debt limit by the Aug. 2 deadline.\nIn Congressional testimony this week, Mr. Bernanke also warned that the Fed would not be able to fully counter the damage from a default, including the possibility that spiking interest rates would roil borrowers worldwide and worsen the federal budget deficit by making it costlier to finance the nation\u2019s debt.\nThat\u2019s not all of it. Brinkmanship over the debt limit is only one of many epic economic policy blunders now in the making. Even if lawmakers raise the debt limit on time, the economy is weak and getting weaker, as evidenced by slowing growth and rising unemployment.\nDennis Kucinich: Debt Political Theater Diverts Attention While Americans\u2019 Wealth Is Stolen\nThe rancorous debate over the debt belies a fundamental truth of our economy \u2014 that it is run for the few at the expense of the many, that our entire government has been turned into a machine which takes the wealth of a mass of Americans and accelerates it into the hands of the few. Let me give you some examples.\nTake war. War takes the money from the American people and puts it into the hands of arms manufacturers, war profiteers, and private armies. The war in Iraq, based on lies: $3 trillion will be the cost of that war. The war in Afghanistan; based on a misreading of history; half a trillion dollars in expenses already. The war against Libya will be $1 billion by September.\nFifty percent of our discretionary spending goes for the Pentagon. A massive transfer of wealth into the hands of a few while the American people lack sufficient jobs, health care, housing, retirement security.\nDavid Sirota: Toward a New Politics of Food\nIt seems a tidy explanation for a disturbing trend, implying that healthy food is inherently more expensive, and thus can only be for wealthy Endive Elitists when the economy falters. But if the talking point\u2019s carefully crafted mix of faux populism and oversimplification seems a bit facile-if the glib explanation seems almost too perfectly sculpted for your local right-wing radio blowhard-that\u2019s because it dishonestly omits the most important part of the story. The part about how healthy food could easily be more affordable for everyone right now, if not for those ultimate elitists: agribusiness CEOs, their lobbyists and the politicians they own.\nLe Tour- Stage 14\nSaint-Gaudens to Plateau de Beille 105 miles\nOur last day in the Pyrenees and the last chance for some riders to make a statement.\nNot that I\u2019m expecting for Contador to pack it in, just that there are those who will look ahead to the Alps and decide to spare themselves. We had 4 withdrawals yesterday including Kloden of Radio Shack.\nSpeaking of surprises, I\u2019m not sure who would have predicted a Hushovd Stage win and Gilbert finished unexpectedly high. There was a huge group of 54 that tied for twelfth with another 30 riders 15 Seconds behind so you might argue the deltas don\u2019t make a difference.\nToday\u2019s Stage is all up and down with a category 3, two category 2s, two category 1s and we finish on an unclassified (though the last 100 yards is pretty flat).\nAfter this we have a flat day (last one except the Champs Elysees finish) and then there is no rest for the wicked though there is for the riders before we attack the Alps and finish with the Individual Time Trial and parade.\nToo early coverage on Vs. starts at 6:30 am.\nOn this day in 1945, at 5:29:45 a.m., the Manhattan Project comes to an explosive end as the first atom bomb is successfully tested in Alamogordo, New Mexico.\nIf the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one\u2026\nPlans for the creation of a uranium bomb by the Allies were established as early as 1939, when Italian emigre physicist Enrico Fermi met with U.S. Navy department officials at Columbia University to discuss the use of fissionable materials for military purposes. That same year, Albert Einstein wrote to President Franklin Roosevelt supporting the theory that an uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction had great potential as a basis for a weapon of mass destruction. In February 1940, the federal government granted a total of $6,000 for research. But in early 1942, with the United States now at war with the Axis powers, and fear mounting that Germany was working on its own uranium bomb, the War Department took a more active interest, and limits on resources for the project were removed.\nBrigadier-General Leslie R. Groves, himself an engineer, was now in complete charge of a project to assemble the greatest minds in science and discover how to harness the power of the atom as a means of bringing the war to a decisive end. The Manhattan Project (so-called because of where the research began) would wind its way through many locations during the early period of theoretical exploration, most importantly, the University of Chicago, where Enrico Fermi successfully set off the first fission chain reaction. But the Project took final form in the desert of New Mexico, where, in 1943, Robert J. Oppenheimer began directing Project Y at a laboratory at Los Alamos, along with such minds as Hans Bethe, Edward Teller, and Fermi. Here theory and practice came together, as the problems of achieving critical mass-a nuclear explosion-and the construction of a deliverable bomb were worked out.\nEvil or Ignorant?\nIt hardly matters at this point. Barack Obama has said in so many words that he\u2019s perfectly willing to let the U.S. Government default on our National Debt unless he gets cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.\nEven after the Republicans have capitulated on these issues.\nIt is no wonder that he loses to \u2018generic Republican\u2019 by 8 points. People who claim to believe in \u2018Electoral Victory\u2019 are lying to you.\nObama is ensuring he is a one term failure by rushing to enact his Republican agenda with the complicity of corporatists who wear a D only because it\u2019s convenient. His highly paid and constantly wrong (2010) consultants contend \u2018not as scary as that guy over there\u2019, combined with \u2018I\u2019m a blind partisan\u2019 will defeat the truth of \u2018I don\u2019t care about you\u2019.\nBarack Obama doesn\u2019t give a rat\u2019s ass about you and by the way clap harder for the Confidence Fairy, Invisible Bond Vigilantes, and Tinkerbell, otherwise you\u2019ll die.\nAnd so that\u2019s where I\u2019d have a selling job, Chuck, is trying to sell some of our party that if you are a progressive, you should be concerned about debt and deficit just as much as if you\u2019re a conservative. And the reason is because if the only thing we\u2019re talking about over the next year, two years, five years, is debt and deficits, then it\u2019s very hard to start talking about how do we make investments in community colleges so that our kids are trained, how do we actually rebuild $2 trillion worth of crumbling infrastructure.\nIf you care about making investments in our kids and making investments in our infrastructure and making investments in basic research, then you should want our fiscal house in order, so that every time we propose a new initiative somebody doesn\u2019t just throw up their hands and say, \u201cAh, more big spending, more government.\u201d\nIt would be very helpful for us to be able to say to the American people, our fiscal house is in order. And so now the question is what should we be doing to win the future and make ourselves more competitive and create more jobs, and what aspects of what government is doing are a waste and we should eliminate. And that\u2019s the kind of debate that I\u2019d like to have.\nIt\u2019s hard to figure out exactly what his motivations are since his policy doesn\u2019t make any kind of sense at all, even for rich people. When \u2018The Great Hair Cut\u2019 takes place it will be all about deleveraging that $600 Trillion of Derivative Notional Value in the Shadow Markets.\nWhy? Because there\u2019s no place else to get the \u2018money\u2019. It\u2019s at least 10 times the \u2018book value\u2019 of all the World\u2019s goods and services annually. So while the slave owner may starve and whip his chattel, and force them to sleep naked in the cold, there is only so much blood in the turnip.\nBootlickers think they will somehow survive I suppose, who can have enough jesters and toadies? Having been Capo di Tutti I\u2019ll tell you they\u2019re the first on the list. They\u2019ll continue to suck up anyway seeking to worm their way back into favor (see Pavlov).\nFrankly it\u2019s co-dependent behavior. I\u2019ve seen enough abusive relationships to know and I have an opinion- toleration is complicity.\nHow then to have an impact?\nI don\u2019t think any amount of complaints will convince the Tsar he has bad councilors, but it\u2019s certainly a minimum. I do think that only votes get counted and I encourage you to do so early and often. The thing about shunning is that it\u2019s critically important that it be public and express the clear disapproval of the community.\nTheir guilty souls can\u2019t stand that, witness the howls of outrage.\nObama Wants DADT Reinstated (Up Dated)\nThe Department of Justice has filed a brief in the 9th Circuit Court to reinstate DADT that was ordered immediately stopped by the court. The brief cited \u201creal and immediate harm.\u201d Now remember, the DOJ has decided not to enforce the \u201cDefense of Marriage Act\u201d (DOMA) or to defend it from being overturned as it winds its way through the courts. Knowing that, I would not want to be the US Attorney trying to explain the rational for this request to the judges of the 9th Circuit.\nDavid Dayen at FDL sheds some light on this seemingly paradoxical pursuit:\nThe meat of the DoJ order is right here:\nIn sum, the government argues that lifting the stay unjustifiably takes the authority for repealing DADT away from the executive branch and it does so, at least in part, because of confusion by the Ninth Circuit panel regarding the DOJ\u2019s view of whether DADT is constitutional after the passage of the repeal act and regarding the application of the DOJ\u2019s DOMA decisions to military laws like DADT.\nThe executive branch wants to defend its policy work and doesn\u2019t want the court bigfooting around finding its laws unconstitutional. Unless we\u2019re talking about DOMA, where that\u2019s precisely what DoJ has requested.\nIt looks like a question of who gets the power to overturn DADT. The President wants his signing ceremony.\nThe court is confused? Well, they\u2019re not alone and that twisted argument made my back hurt. The reality is that this is all about the president\u2019s ego and reelection and those pesky gays should be grateful.\nUp Date: From John Aravosis at AMERICAblog Gay\n9th Circuit again tells Obama administration to stop discharging gays\nOral arguments are set for September 1st in Pasadena, CA.\nTags: civil rights, DADT, Department of Defense, Department of Justice, lgbt, Politics, TMC Politics\nPopular Culture (Personalities) 20110715: Don Rickles\nDonald Jay \u201cDon\u201d Rickles (I like it that he uses his own name, and I would here but would have to give up my low UID to do so) is unique. I am actually not that fond of him, but he is an American icon. Born 19260508, he is now 85 years old, and going strong!

        "raw_content": "James Baldwin\u2019s essential \u2018The Fire Next Time\u2019 gets an arty and brilliant makeover\nWith over 100 photos of the early civil rights movement and an introduction from Congressman John Lewis, this book is a collectors\u2019 item\nFifty-four years after James Baldwin\u2019s The Fire Next Time revolutionized the way we talk about race, it still feels eerily present. Taken out of historical context, Baldwin\u2019s words read like they were written yesterday, not published in The New Yorker more than five decades ago. At the time, Down at the Cross: Letter from a Region in My Mind was so impactful that after the essay was published, photojournalist Steve Schapiro, who often shot for Life magazine, persuaded his employer to run a full profile of Baldwin. The assignment led to Schapiro shooting some of the most iconic images of his long and legendary career, including one of a young, then relatively unknown Martin Luther King Jr. These images, many of them never before published, are featured alongside Baldwin\u2019s words in a new limited edition letterpress edition of The Fire Next Time, released by art book publisher Taschen.\nhttps://theundefeated.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/blaeu_atlas_maior_1_vol_fp_int_3d_44816_1512221226_id_102402123.jpg\nThere are 1,963 first-edition volumes \u2014 a nod to the original publication year \u2014 and this rerelease of The Fire Next Time is the third in a literary letterpress series that combines iconic works of nonfiction with the work of acclaimed image-makers. Nina Wiener, Taschen managing editor and lead on the Baldwin project, noted that the series is ongoing.\n\u201cIt features work of great nonfiction writers in the second half of the 20th century in English,\u201d she said, \u201cwith a focus, at this point, on New Journalism.\u201d\nThe two other books in the series reimagine Gay Talese\u2019s 1966 Esquire story Frank Sinatra Has A Cold coupled with photographs by Phil Stern, and Tom Wolfe\u2019s 1968 The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test alongside photo-essays by Lawrence Schiller (who conceived the idea to include Baldwin in this series) and Ted Streshinsky. The Baldwin volume is a silk screen hardcover with an embossed case and is letterpress printed on two different stocks of natural uncoated paper. It\u2019s 272 pages and retails for $200.\nFannie Lou Hamer\u2019s 2015 \u2018Songs My Mother Taught Me\u2019\nThe poster for the 1995 film \u2018Dead Presidents\u2019\nAmerican Girl adds civil rights-era doll to historical collection\nJimi Hendrix\u2019s \u2018Are You Experienced\u2019 turns 50\nMost of Taschen\u2019s collector\u2019s editions, said Wiener, are \u201cvery large, very heavy and very expensive,\u201d but Wiener\u2019s team \u2014 composed of Lawrence Schiller, art director Josh Baker, designer Jessica Sappenfield and captioner Marcia Davis \u2014 decided to create The Fire Next Time on a more intimate scale. It\u2019s smaller and designed in such a way to encourage the reader to actually, well, read.\n\u201cWe thought it was extremely important,\u201d said Wiener, \u201cthat we had the captions written by someone with a strong knowledge of the history of the civil rights movement \u2014 but who could also connect it to the events of today. Marcia Davis, a longtime editor with The Washington Post, worked with us on the captions.\u201d Wiener noted that Davis was a leading editor on The Washington Post\u2019s Ferguson coverage and that her work has included social justice issues for the last 20-plus years. \u201cShe\u2019s just fantastic \u2026 and she managed some pretty relevant stories in very short word count that the captions allowed for \u2014 an art unto itself. She was a critical part of making this book work.\u201d This is not your average coffee-table book.\nhttps://theundefeated.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/ce_baldwin_p03413.jpg\nAccording to Wiener, Baldwin was Schapiro\u2019s entr\u00e9e into covering the civil rights movement. \u201cIt was through him that he met activist Jerome Smith, and one thing led to another. \u2026 He was meeting a lot of the Freedom Riders and SNCC members, and eventually [he] photographed Martin Luther King,\u201d she said. \u201c[In] the first picture that he took of King, Ralph Abernathy is in the foreground talking to a couple of children, and [King] was in the background, totally out of focus. Steve didn\u2019t even know who King was at that time.\u201d\nBecause of Schapiro\u2019s desire to cover Baldwin in his element, he traveled to the South with him and ended up documenting, although Schapiro didn\u2019t quite grasp the magnitude of it at the time, the beginnings of the civil rights movement. John Lewis, Medgar Evers, Fannie Lou Hamer, Alabama Gov. George Wallace, the Freedom Riders and members of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, key players in the battle for civil rights, were captured in Schapiro\u2019s resolute search for authenticity.\nBesides Baldwin\u2019s words and Schapiro\u2019s photographs, this new edition features an introduction by activist U.S. Rep. John Lewis and a note from Baldwin\u2019s sister (and executor of his estate) Gloria Karefa-Smart.\n\u201cWe spent a lot of time working on how to organize the book,\u201d said Wiener. \u201cInitially we anticipated organizing pictures chronologically, but we felt that the visual story was not as interesting that way, and we ended up going with more of a thematic organization.\u201d\nBecause of its intimacy, this is a book that we can open to learn from, and to find glimmers of hope in, for a long time to come.\nTierra R. Wilkins is an associate editor for The Undefeated. She likes to eat fries with her ketchup.\nThis Story Tagged: Cover Stories James Baldwin The Fire Next Time",

        "raw_content": "Since hitting #1 on Traxsource\u2019s Top 100 in 2017 for his remix \u201cCome With Me,\u201d Bryan Fein, who goes by the stage name Mafia B, has co-founded the techno party series Origins Underground, to bring underground techno music to Manhattan.\nBryan Fein when he first began DJ\u2019ing in 2010. | Photo courtesy of Bryan Fein\nBryan Fein led me up the stairs of the office building. The halls were lined with glass offices and red brick walls that offered a modern rustic vibe. I plopped onto the couch, and he sat on the chair next to me.\nFrom watching his social media stories, I knew Fein didn\u2019t get much sleep: between working out and working on his upcoming album, there was hardly a day or a night when Fein wasn\u2019t hustling. But now he was leaning forward attentively, hands clasped, ready.\nFein began telling his story. He grew up in Manhattan, and was fully immersed in music from a young age, whether he was attending classic rock-and-roll concerts with his father to see legends, like the Rolling Stones and AC/DC, or with his mom listening to classical music at home. Fein attended Turtle Bay Music School as a teenager, learning piano and guitar. He was advised in his growing interest in electronic music by his martial arts instructor, who was himself a DJ, and would later become Fein\u2019s mentor.\n\u201cI was taking taekwondo at the time. That explains my figure,\u201d the 26-year-old joked. His instructor played old house music during their training sessions. \u201cIt resonated well with me,\u201d Fein said.\nCurious to start mixing, Fein downloaded a DJ software to mix tacks from the likes of Benny Benassi and the Ministry of Sound label. \u201cI thought I was awesome at it. I sent my mixes to all of my friends and got some good feedback. In high school, I started djing karaoke parties and small loft parties my friends rented out,\u201d he said.\nFein was all about house music. He started going to clubs in the Meatpacking District, wanting to DJ more seriously. Around 2010, mainstream artists, like David Guetta and Avicii, made house music more popular, which gave Fein the perfect niche to break into. Fein\u2019s mentor\u2014the martial arts instructor\u2014let him play opening and closing sets at places, such as Ajna Bar, Veranda, and the Hudson Terrace, allowing him to perfect his craft in mixing while reading the energy of the crowd.\nStill, Fein yearned for more\u2014producing. He started dabbling in Ableton Live, a production software, learning to create electronic music. \u201cThe first year, I was the most discouraged person on the face of the planet just because I didn\u2019t know how to do anything. It was just opening my laptop, turning on the software, and closing my laptop for a year,\u201d he said.\nBut Fein kept going. He began producing simple beats, influenced by the tribal sounds of Roger Sanchez or Dennis Ferrer, and adding his own \u201celectronic flavor,\u201d looking to the styles of masters Deadmau5 and Eric Prydz.\nIn 2013, Fein attended a renown music festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, where seeing Mark Knight live brought Fein into the world of techno for the first time. Since then, Fein has been obsessed with tech house, deep house, and techno.\nFein released his first album on Soundcloud in 2016. It garnered international attention from Italian label Elektrobeats Records, for which Fein released some widely successful remixes, including \u201cCome With Me\u201d in 2017, which hit #1 on Traxsource\u2019s Top 100.\nIn 2017, Fein co-founded the party series Origins Underground with high school classmate Dylan Farrugia (otherwise known as Dysco). The idea behind the series was simple: to bring underground techno back to Manhattan. These parties happen once every month.\nFein explains that techno is in right now, but the scene in New York City isn\u2019t doing well. EDM peaked and fell off in 2014, leaving a hole where electronic music should be. \u201cThe scene is really strong in Brooklyn, and we want to bring some of that flavor to the city. Not everyone has the privilege to commute to Brooklyn for an event.\u201d\nAs far as new music from Mafia B\u2014Fein\u2019s upcoming 12-track album explores progressive house and techno while showcasing melodic motifs and underground vibes. One track will be released every month.\nAs a die-hard techno fan, I am always burning to know what DJs think of the genre. While I know my answer, I closed with\u2014what sets techno apart from other genres?\n\u201cCommunity. Everyone\u2019s like, \u2018Hey, you want to DJ at my party?\u2019 No one is there for the money. If you\u2019re trying to get your name out there\u2026everyone is helping each other. Techno is for people who are open-minded.\u201d\nCatch Mafia B\u2019s latest tunes here: https://soundcloud.com/mafiab\nTags: brooklyn, bryan fein, electronic music, manhattan, Music, Nightlife, techno",

        "title": "Video Game Review: Lone Survivor: The Director\u2019s Cut [PS Vita/PS3] \u2013 The Warning Sign",
        "raw_content": "Video Game Review: Lone Survivor: The Director\u2019s Cut [PS Vita/PS3]\nSystem: PS Vita/PS3 (also on PC, Mac OS X and Linux)\nDeveloper: Superflat Games, Curve Studios\nPublisher: Superflat Games\nIn a world where most modern horror games rely heavily on action and frantic combat, Lone Survivor: The Director\u2019s Cut is a breath of fresh air. This is a game that manages to crank up the suspense while providing an intense, creepy atmosphere, all while being presented in a pixelated 2D environment.\nThe game tells the story of You, an unnamed protagonist (in his words, his name \u201cdoesn\u2019t really matter anymore\u201d) who is seemingly the lone survivor after a disease wiped out the rest of the population. Tired of being stranded in his apartment, he decides to head out in hopes of finding someone, anyone, who might still be alive in this post-apocalyptic world.\nOf course, our hero isn\u2019t really alone. Just outside of his apartment, he finds a truly repulsive, faceless monster whose presence is punctuated by piercing static and muted screams. Initially armed with nothing but a flashlight, the only way to get past this ghastly creature is to hide in the shadows and attempt to sneak past it. This is a common occurrence, as the monsters become more and more frequent in their appearances. Eventually, you\u2019re able to get a gun, providing an alternate method to deal with enemies, but ammo is so scarce that it is often best to be as stealthy as possible.\nMuch of Lone Survivor takes place in the dark, and strategic use of the flashlight is necessary in order to find your way around. Again, supplies are scarce, so it\u2019s best to conserve the battery. This can make it tricky when scoping out an unfamiliar location, as even the slightest glimpse of light will cast the creatures into a frenzy, chasing you until you reach a new room.\nPerhaps even more frightening than the relentless enemies is the rapidly deteriorating mental health of the protagonist. In order to stay in good (or at least acceptable) shape, you must eat often while also getting a proper amount of sleep. There are food items scattered throughout the in-game world, some good (fruit salad), some bad (squid on a stick), but all are beneficial for keeping your stomach full. There are no health bars or other HUD reminders \u2014 the only way to know if you need to sleep or eat is through random text prompts. Wait too long to do either and you will begin to hallucinate, which is never a good thing. You can also talk to plants and stuffed animals to keep your sanity, and if you play your cards right, you might even be able to befriend a *real* cat.\nThe frequent reminders to eat and get some rest only add to the already riveting tension, and with a possibly insane protagonist, it\u2019s difficult to tell what\u2019s real and what\u2019s merely in his head. As such, the game has an intriguing cerebral element, becoming something of a psychological thriller in its own right.\nNow, while the game absolutely succeeds in providing a haunting atmosphere, it does have some noticeable issues with its core gameplay. For one, there is a lot of backtracking. In order to save progress, you have to frequently go back to your apartment and rest, although this is helped somewhat by teleporting mirrors scattered throughout the building. Many of the doors are also locked at first, requiring you to explore and find their keys in order to get through them. This can be a tedious affair at times, especially when you find yourself going back and forth between the same two locations. There are also concerns with the game\u2019s combat, as using the gun feels clunky and occasionally unresponsive. The gun can be aimed in three directions, but it\u2019s difficult to actually fire off a good shot in the way you want to. This does make enemy encounters even more disturbing, though it feels like kind of a cheap tactic to do so.\nStill, flaws aside, this is a very unique horror experience that is an especially excellent fit for the PS Vita. As the Director\u2019s Cut, this is the definitive edition of Lone Survivor, and it includes new locations, dialogue, music, endings and even a New Game+ mode. The campaign can be finished in just 3-5 hours, but multiple playthroughs are warranted in order to discover new endings and learn more about the game\u2019s narrative. As such, there is a solid amount of value here for horror buffs. Just make sure to play this in the dark and with headphones on\u2026 if you dare.\nPosted in: Video Games | Tagged: 2013, curve studios, horror, indie games, lone survivor, ps vita, ps3, psn, superflat games, survival horror, video games, vita\nMovie Project #30: Carrie [1976]\n13 thoughts on \u201cVideo Game Review: Lone Survivor: The Director\u2019s Cut [PS Vita/PS3]\u201d\nHi Eric, just wanna comment on the poll this week.

Just posted my review but I saw it a week n a half ago, it still lingers with me to this day.\nWow, that\u2019s some serious staying power. It sounds like one of the rare groundbreaking films that come around every once in a great while. Will be making it a priority for sure!\nI\u2019ll need to pick up this game.Thanks for the read! We are currently making our own Indie Game.\nNo problem, good luck with your game!\nThank you very much. Look forward to seeing your future posts.\nI really enjoyed this game and I\u2019m not a big fan of survival horror stuff. Agree with you on a few of the issues though.

It\u2019s hard to estimate how many people live with invisible disabilities because they cover such a wide range of medical conditions and impairments.\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/invisible-not-silent-people-invisible-disabilities-speak/\nHarassment in car parks.\nHave you ever seen someone using an accessible parking space and suspected that they were cheating the system? Did you know that many disabilities are invisible and have no obvious external signs?\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/people-invisible-disabilities-face-harassment-car-parks/\nInvisible disabilities survey results.\nThe term \u201cinvisible disability\u201d refers to any disability that is not immediately visible to the casual observer. Our survey respondents alone listed over 100 different conditions between them, including impairments as diverse as spinal injury, cancer, dementia and vision impairment. For all of these reasons, calculating the exact number of people with invisible disabilities is very difficult, but researchers tell us that between 70 and 90 per cent of all disabilities are invisible. That\u2019s a lot of people who may not look disabled, but who still need to access a wide range of disability services and accessible facilities.\nSurvey link.\nTo help raise awareness of these issues, we at Blue Badge would like to find out if you have experienced this type of harassment through our anonymous survey. It should only take 5 minutes of your time and will hopefully help us make a difference.\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/dont-look-disabled/\nAccessibility symbol.\nThe international symbol of access is one of the most widely recognised symbols in the world. The image of the person in a wheelchair set against a blue background indicates that a certain area or facility \u2013 be it parking, seating, toilets, transport \u2013 is accessible. Despite being one of the most iconic symbols we have, many people think it needs a makeover to be more representative of a broader range of disabilities, including those that can\u2019t be seen.\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/need-change-accessibility-symbol/\nApplying for a permit.\nUnder the new Australian Disability Parking Scheme, being introduced by the Federal Government, there is now a single permit with increased security features to reduce fraudulent misuse, and to make it easier for permit holders to travel interstate.\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/new-national-disability-parking-permits-designed-help-reduce-fraud/\nParking space sizes.\nA common complaint we hear from people with Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles is that the spaces are simply not large enough to allow the safe and easy use of the ramp \u2013 whether it\u2019s a side or rear entry vehicle.\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/need-space-accessible-parking-permit-users/\nAccessible parking.\nAccessible parking spaces are clearly recognisable and are labelled with a white international access symbol painted on a blue rectangle. This access symbol highlights the fact that parking spaces are reserved only for vehicles displaying valid Disability Parking Permits.\nhttps://www.bluebadgeinsurance.com.au/fantastic-parking-find/\nAbuse Hurled at People with Invisible Disabilites \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Posted on February 5, 2014 by Tiffany A White\nWhy It\u2019s Worth a Watch Wednesday \u2013 The Walking Dead\nToday I\u2019m jumping in with one of the television shows I have been looking forward to returning in the 2014 winter TV season\u2014AMC\u2019s The Walking Dead.\nAMC no longer means American Movie Classics.\nThe supernatural element is taking over the television world today, and AMC joins this phenomenon by telling the story of a small group of people working feverishly to survive a widespread zombie epidemic in the great state of Georgia in The Walking Dead. The series begins with small town sheriff Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) waking from a coma to discover he is alone in every sense of the word: the hospital is desolate, the town looks like a post-apocalyptic war zone, and his family has vanished.\nA man and his son save the deliriously weak Rick from his first encounter with a walker, or zombie as we know it, and nurse him back to health and educate him on the events that have transpired while he was in a coma. The outlook appears bleak, but Rick insists his family is alive and sets out for Atlanta to find his wife (Lori, played by Sarah Wayne Callies) and son (Carl, played by Chandler Riggs).\nOn his journey, Rick finds his family and his best friend (Shane, played by Jon Bernthal) along with a small group that will become a part of his new family: Glenn (Steven Yeun). Andrea (Laurie Holden), T-Dog (IronE Singleton), Carol (Melissa McBride), Dale (Jeffrey DeMunn), and probably my favorite character\u2026 along with most of the show\u2019s other viewers\u2026 Daryl (Norman Reedus).\nRick immediately establishes himself as the team leader; but after the camp is infiltrated by a group of walkers and a few lives are lost, the survivors retreat, pack up and head out. And so the journey begins\u2026.or continues in this case.\nThe first season of The Walking Dead is only six episodes, making it perfect for a marathon style viewing party (that\u2019s what we did). In season two, the survivors cohabitate on a farm with Hershel (Scott Wilson) and his daughters (Maggie, played by Lauren Cohen, and Beth, played by Beth Kinney). Of course, as expected, they have to abruptly leave the farm and take up residence in an abandoned prison, which begins season three. And along the way, they cross paths with The Governor (David Morrissey) and a few other recurring characters (like Michonne, played by Danai Gurira, and Tyreese, played by Chad L. Coleman).\nNow in season four, the group\u2019s once safe fortress is no more\u2026\nJust how successful is The Walking Dead? The series has already been picked up for a fifth year and averages anywhere between 10-16 million viewers per episode. Yeah, it\u2019s one of the most popular TV shows on today\u2026\nThe Walking Dead is shot without the vibrant colors of shows like Hawaii Five-0; but while not black and white, still appears dark and gloomy in relation to the current state of events. The episodes are not for those with weak stomachs and are filled with suspense, leaving us hanging on by the seat of our pants. Not every character is likable, yet we find ourselves hoping that the walkers don\u2019t bite anyone else.\nThe series is a bit graphic at times. Honestly, I almost stopped watching at one particular point in the pilot episode (I did not like seeing the walkers devour a horse). But I stuck with it and I really am glad that I did.\nOh, and most importantly, not one single character is safe from death. Not one. Of all the survivors listed above, six have already perished. I just won\u2019t say who\u2026\nIt\u2019s difficult to decide which rating I should award The Walking Dead. For bringing zombies to television, I\u2019m leaning towards a GTV rating; the fact that I actually need the week in-between episodes to recover from what has happened, I\u2019m leaning towards the GTV rating; for keeping me on the edge of my seat, not being predictable, and for the music, I\u2019m leaning towards the GTV rating. So, I guess it\u2019s a top-tiered TV show for me\u2014GTV all the way.\nWhat do you think? Do you watch The Walking Dead? I\u2019d love to hear from you!\nCategoriesMore Television, Television, TV Reviews, TV with Bite, Watch it?

I think Daryl is a great study in character growth. Love him!\nWe love The Walking Dead. We got in a couple of seasons late, but got caught up real quick. The mid-season finales are always better than the season finales, I think.\nHubby watches this show, but I don\u2019t. I just don\u2019t like zombies. I\u2019m into other paranormal creatures, but for some reason, zombies just\u2026well, I can\u2019t explain it.\nCan\u2019t wait to see the new episode next week.\nJoe and I love this show. It\u2019s amazing. I tuned in for the pilot episode and watched with my roommate. Instantly hooked. I even got Joe the first volume of the comics, and he\u2019s since gotten the second. The further in the comics you go, the more you can see where the plot deviated. But I commend the writers for the show and all the actors. Daryl is definitely a fave of ours too. I also love Michone. There\u2019s a quiz on AMC\u2019s Walking Dead page you can take to tell you which character you\u2019d be, and I got Rick. I can see it. I\u2019m pretty big on the humanitarian/ethics piece, so I side with him a lot, but I\u2019d probably go crazy like he did too.

        "title": "Personality Profile: Howard Stern, King of All Interviewers - Tracy Johnson Media Group",
        "raw_content": "Personality Profile: Howard Stern, King of All Interviewers\nLike every great performance artist, interviewers are able to tell a story. Great personalities make interviews seem effortless. It seems so easy, everyone seems to think interviews are a good idea. But they\u2019re not for everyone. Not everybody can interview like Dan Patrick or, the King of All Interviewers, Howard Stern.\nHaving a great guest is a good start for a solid interview, but that\u2019s no guarantee that the segment will succeed. Most interviews with experts, even A-list celebrities-are deadly dull. That\u2019s why many programmers coach personalities to avoid interviews completely.\nBut I can\u2019t remember hearing a dull Howard Stern interview. Ever. Stern has evolved over the years, from shock jock to a thoughtful, compassionate and multi-faceted host. His interviews alone are worth the price of Sirius XM subscription for many subscribers.\nWhat Makes Howard Stern the King of All Interviewers: Preparation\nIt all starts with preparation and research. Despite how casual and spontaneous Stern\u2019s remarks seem to be, his interviews are the result of a great deal of preparation. And Howard not only appreciates the preparation process, he seems to enjoy it. He says:\nI don\u2019t understand how any performer thinks they can just come on and wing it. And I don\u2019t know why they would want to. There\u2019s a great satisfaction and confidence that comes from preparing for interviews.\nThat point isn\u2019t lost on Billy Joel, a regular guest on Howard\u2019s show. Before his first appearance, the pop singer was worried that something outrageous would happen that could be embarrassing. Joel says:\nTurns out I was wrong. He was completely unpredictable in a way I hadn\u2019t expected. He knew more about my music than anyone I ever worked with in the entire radio industry. The interview Howard did with me was probably the most astute and insightful interview I\u2019ve done in my 50-year career.\nWow. That doesn\u2019t happen by accident. And it\u2019s that type of preparation that makes him the King of All Interviewers and keeps guests and listeners coming back over and over.\nStern has earned his reputation for being unpredictable and outrageous, but there\u2019s depth in his content. Listen to his interviews. He has a respect for each guest. It doesn\u2019t stop him from asking tough questions or leading them into uncomfortable conversations. But anyone he approves to be on the show is someone that Stern is interested in and/or admires.\nAnd there\u2019s a rhythm to the flow of a Howard Stern interview.\nIntro: The introduction is always a compliment. Howard makes a little small talk and makes his guest feel welcome. Many first-time guests are nervous about being on with Howard, but he overcomes that anxiety and gains their trust quickly.\nWell, look who\u2019s here, looking all thin and beautiful. It\u2019s the great [NAME]\u2026\nBy warming up the guest, they feel safer. They\u2019re loosened up and ready to interact with the King of All Interviewers.\nStarting The Interview: The First Questions\nIn doing so, he makes them feel comfortable, easing into the conversation. He then quickly advances the break with an easy question.\nThe First Question: Many times, I coach personalities to start with their best question, as long as it\u2019s not a challenging one. Stern takes a different approach. His first question is an extension of small talk. He\u2019ll say something warm and friendly, like \u201cHow\u2019s life treating you, my friend?\u201d It gets the guest to start talking and establishes a rapport.\nThe greeting, followed by a quick personal question that\u2019s easy to answer work together, and take only seconds. Now he\u2019s ready to go to work.\nActive Listening, Free Association & Great Radio Shows\nThe Real First Question: This is where Howard gets down to business. Here comes a direct question that captures listener attention. It\u2019s usually something complimentary to the guest, yet character-defining for Stern. Self-deprecation is a key part of his personality profile. Sometimes this question is about success or fame. Or sex (a part of Stern\u2019s three-legged stool), depending on the guest.\nNow that you\u2019re a big star, how much action are you getting? Did you ever think you\u2019d have sex this good?\nThe guests are sometimes embarrassed, but not surprised. After all, they kind of know this is going to come up. And so does the audience. It\u2019s a benchmark of the show.\nStern\u2019s skill in getting guests to respond in ways they never have has made him legendary. Howard has been described by some celebrities as \u201ctruth serum\u201d. He\u2019s able to get to places few others can.\nHow does he do it? By asking direct, bold questions. And keeping it simple.\nDaryl Hall of Hall & Oates fame says:\nWhat Howard does is he asks intelligent, provocative questions. He goes there in a way that makes you comfortable with revealing a personal thing.\nHis ability to extract deep insight from guests transcends the appeal of the celebrity. Whether you\u2019re a fan of Billy Joel or Daryl Hall is secondary to the story Stern tells through the questions and answers. The King of All Interviewers causes the audience to lean in to hear what will happen next, with high expectations that something interesting will emerge.\nAnd it always does.\nIt\u2019s well known that Howard is known for being highly critical of himself. Along with that comes an aversion to criticism. There are no boundaries between Stern\u2019s neuroses and the questions he asks guests. This is evident in the fact that almost half of his questions start with \u201cIsn\u2019t that just the worst,\u201d \u201cThat had to be a horrible time for you,\u201d or, \u201cDid you fall into a major depression when\u2026?\u201d\nOne rather pessimistic inquiry came about when Stern asked Olivia Wilde whether she blamed herself when Cowboys and Aliens flopped at the box office. (She did not.)\nThe negativity can be distracting at times, but also tends to result in more serious, reflective and lengthy answers. This is the kind of response that almost no talk show can get to.\nStern tells Rolling Stone magazine:\nThe biggest criticism of my interviews is that I cut people off. I think my biggest asset is that I cut people off. It sounds like a contradiction, but the fact is you can\u2019t allow people to drone on. I gotta keep it fresh. I don\u2019t want my guests to bomb. A good interviewer not only asks the right questions but has sort of an inherent sense of what\u2019s happening to this mass audience. And I don\u2019t know if you can teach that anywhere.\nPaul McCartney Opens Up\nHis pointed questions are unusual, often the first time that guest has ever been asked it. Steve Goldstein of Amplifi Media points out that in one of his many interviews with Paul McCartney (he\u2019s had Paul on several times), Stern asked the simple question that any Beatles fan has probably wondered but never thought of as a question.\nHe asked Sir Paul:\nWhat caused you to come up with a song like Why Don\u2019t We Do It In The Road?\nMcCartney was taken by surprised. He laughed, clearly taken off-guard, and said:\nIn all the interviews I\u2019ve done, that\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve been asked that question.\nHe went on to tell a fascinating story about the song. A great question took a guest off-guard and turned into an amazing moment on the air.\nOkay, now you\u2019re curious about the story. It was while the Beatles were in India with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Paul says:\nThere was a male monkey hop on the back of this female and gave her one, as they say in the vernacular. Within two or three seconds he hopped off again and looked around as if to say \u201cIt wasn\u2019t me!\u201d and she looked around as if there\u2019d been some mild disturbance. And I thought, \u2018that\u2019s how simple the act of procreation is\u2019. We have horrendous problems with it, and yet animals don\u2019t.\nBut as great as Howard\u2019s questions are, Stern\u2019s follow up is better. This is where he shines. He doesn\u2019t ask a question, then start thinking about the next one on his list. In fact, he may never get to many of the questions or topics he had planned.\nThe King of All Interviewers listens to the answer. Then he responds.\nActress Emily Blunt had a rocky relationship with Michael Buble\u2019. She\u2019s now married to John Krasinski, but Stern was more interested in her past. He wanted to get to the details of a story about dating Buble\u2019 because it had never been told.\nHoward warmed up his guest, then confronted Blunt, starting with a friendly question. He said:\nYou haven\u2019t dated a lot of guys. I know you like monogamy. And you were madly in love with Michael Bubl\u00e9. Emily, what happened?\nInserting her name into the end of the question (\u201cEmily, what happened?\u201d) made the exchange more intimate. It was like a friend confiding in a friend.\nBlunt laughed nervously and answered his questions. But she focused on how much she loved Michael\u2019s family. She wouldn\u2019t dish the dirt. Stern listened, then responded. That\u2019s when he brought up the rumors of cheating.\nStern: But was he faithful?\nBlunt: It\u2019s complicated \u2026 I\u2019m going red! \u2026 I never want to talk about it.\nStern: You want me to give you closure? Pretend right now I\u2019m Michael, and talk to me about what went wrong, and I\u2019ll answer you as Michael.\u201d\nThat\u2019s courage. And that\u2019s just another reason he\u2019s the King of All Interviewers.\nListen to or watch (on YouTube) his interviews and you\u2019ll quickly understand why guests say Howard is truth serum. His reputation has caused publicists and PR companies to encourage clients to be on his show if they want to make an impact. Most of the time, an appearance on Stern turns into news that is spread through social media and onto entertainment sites worldwide.\nHoward is a glowing role model, but don\u2019t copy the style. Adapt the principles of that make him the King of All Interviewers. Make guests feel comfortable, ask simple and direct questions and listen and respond. It\u2019s a great formula for creating amazing interviews.\nPhoto Credit: Boston Herald",

        "raw_content": "Home > Entertainment > Everyone Loves To Love Donna Summer\nEveryone Loves To Love Donna Summer\nLOS ANGELES, March 26, 2018 /PRNewswire/ \u2014 On April 20, Island Def Jam/UMe is set to properly fete Donna Summer, the undisputed Queen of Disco and The First Lady of Love, with Summer: The Original Hits. This catchy collection of Summer\u2019s greatest hits is a companion to Summer: The Donna Summer Musical, an exciting new Broadway musical based on her rich and storied life. Previews for Summer: The Donna Summer Musical commenced on March 28, 2018, at the legendary Lunt-Fontanne Theatre in New York City with the official opening on April 23, 2018.\nDonna Summer was born in Boston on New Year\u2019s Eve, 1948. She embraced the core tenets of gospel as a young singer while cutting her teeth with a local rock band and in European musicals, developing an individual vocal \u00e9lan that also married the best elements of Rock, R&B, and Disco. Her signature style is on full display on The Original Hits in such iconic tracks as forever-seductive \u201cLove To Love You Baby,\u201d the defiantly declarative \u201cBad Girls,\u201d the MTV-era female-empowerment anthem \u201cShe Works Hard For The Money,\u201d the fiery dance/rock mesh of \u201cHot Stuff,\u201d and the urgent ballad-to-crescendo disco blend of \u201cLast Dance.\u201d\nGiorgio Moroder, her frequent collaborator, legendary Italian electronic-music pioneer and producer who partnered with Pete Bellotte, instantly recognized Summer\u2019s vocal prowess \u2014 and how to maximize her performance in the studio. When Moroder heard Richard Harris\u2019s dramatic version of Jimmy Webb\u2019s lost-love lament \u201cMacArthur Park\u201d on the radio while driving on the Hollywood Freeway, he knew who had to sing it for him in an innovative arrangement. \u201cEven before I recorded it, I knew it would be perfect for her voice,\u201d Moroder confirmed.\nSummer, the producer continued, had an uncanny knack for conveying unbridled emotion over studio-driven technology. \u201cShe humanized the machines,\u201d Moroder said, citing the groundbreaking and highly influential \u201cI Feel Love\u201d as the key \u201clegacy track\u201d of their many years of fruitful collaboration. \u201cThat song is a combination of mechanical instruments and Donna\u2019s beautiful, romantic voice. It was obviously great to work with a great artist like Donna.\u201d\nSummer\u2019s influential work is given a fresh, respectful update with two rare remixes headed by renowned Grammy\u00ae-nominated remix producer Ralphi Rosario: \u201cMacArthur Park (Rosabel\u2019s Radio Mix),\u201d a No. 1 Dance hit in 2013, and \u201cHot Stuff,\u201d a new rework in collaboration with Erick Ibiza, that debuts on this collection. Another rarity on the collection is Summer\u2019s German-language rendition of \u201cWhite Boys\u201d that she recorded while in the German cast of Hair.\nEven though Summer sadly passed away in 2012, her cultural impact and sonic legacy carries ever onward, and she garnered a well-deserved posthumous induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2013. If you\u2019re lookin\u2019 for some hot stuff to listen to this evening, look no further than Summer: The Original Hits.\nPreorder Summer: The Original Hits here:\ndonnasummer.com\nthedonnasummermusical.com\nfacebook.com/OfficialDonnaSummer\ntwitter.com/OAODonnaSummer\ninstagram.com/officialdonnasummer\nDonna Summer SUMMER: THE ORIGINAL HITS [CD & DIGITAL DELUXE VERSION]\nWhite Boys \u2013 From \u201cHaare (Hair)\u201d\nHeaven Knows \u2013 With Brooklyn Dreams\nNo More Tears (Enough Is Enough) \u2013 Duet With Barbra Streisand\nLast DanceThe Dance Continues\u2026\nMacArthur Park (Rosabel\u2019s Radio Mix)**\nHot Stuff (Ralph Rosario & Erick Ibiza 2018 Rework)**\n** Exclusive bonus tracks to the Digital Deluxe Version\nSOURCE Island Def Jam/UMe\nKosher Food Company Offers New Lasagna & Sushi For Passover \u2013 Yes, Passover!\nNew research out of Mount Saint Mary\u2019s University shines a light on persistent gender inequities in California\u2019s workforce",

        "title": "Finnish gaming: beyond Angry Birds \u2013 Toby Skinner",
        "raw_content": "Finnish gaming: beyond Angry Birds\nFrom Angry Birds to Max Payne and Clash of Clans, Finland has a knack of producing blockbuster video games. With the industry set to be worth NOK11bn in the next decade, we ask how a small country became such a major player\nFor a while last year, a small Finnish company called Supercell became the most successful mobile game developer on the planet. Having only formed in 2010, in November 2012 it generated more revenue from its mobile games than American company Electronic Arts (EA). Not bad given that EA currently produces 958 iOS mobile games, while Supercell produces just the two \u2013 empire-builder Clash of Clansand farm sim Hay Day, both only for tablets.\nWhile regular market leader EA narrowly bumped Supercell into second place in the most recent figures, Clash of Clans was still the world\u2019s top game by monthly revenue. And though the Finnish company refuse to give us exact figures, we understand that it has been making up to US$1 million a day for its two mega-hits.\n\u201cWe remember last year when our games were one and two in the charts,\u201d says Supercell spokesperson Heini Visander. \u201cWe were in awe \u2013 we\u2019re just a small game developer from Finland.\u201d\nThere are echoes of Finland\u2019s other great video games success \u2013 Rovio\u2019s Angry Birds, which was launched by a company of ten people in 2009 and has now been downloaded more than a billion times, making it the most successful mobile game ever. Rovio now employs 540 people, while Supercell is still a wilfully small 85 people. \u201cAngry Birds encouraged us that Finns can aim higher,\u201d says Visander. \u201cAnd other companies are getting the same message.\u201d\nIndeed, Supercell and Rovio are just the tip of the iceberg in a country that boasts 150 video game companies and where the industry produces more wealth per head of population than any other country bar Iceland, which only has 320,000 people.\n\u201cIt\u2019s boom time for video games here,\u201d says KooPee Hiltunen, the director of Neogames, a non-profit organisation that supports the industry in Finland. \u201cFinland has always had a lot of good game developers. What\u2019s changing now is that the outside world has started taking notice of Finnish games.\u201d\nHiltunen joined Neogames in 2003 and is, according to everyone I speak to, the leading authority on Finland\u2019s games industry. We meet for coffee in central Helsinki along with Neogames coordinator Suvi Latva. Together the pair could almost be something dreamed up by Stieg Larsson \u2013 him all leather jacket and straight-talk; her, more bubbly, with a close-cropped short back and sides.\nThe pair tell me that while the Finnish games industry currently turns over \u20ac250m (NOK1.8bn) a year, it\u2019s expected to leap to \u20ac1.49bn (NOK11bn) a year by 2020. \u201cA lot of optimists we talk to say we might hit a \u20ac1.5 billion turnover sooner than that,\u201d says Hiltunen. \u201cI\u2019d be amazed if we don\u2019t see more big success stories like Angry Birds and Clash of Clans over the next few years.\u201d\nInternational investors and companies seem to be thinking that, too. Not only has US$73m (NOK403m) been invested in the industry in the past two years, but major players have come to Helsinki: Electronic Arts opened a studio here last year, as did game technology company Unity. Ubisoft, the third-largest game publisher in the world, bought Finnish company RedLynx in 2011, the same year that Disney bought Rocket Pack, a local company that makes online games for PCs.\nThe big question is why here, in a country of barely five million? \u201cIt\u2019s hard to say why exactly, but what is true is that since the 1980s there\u2019s been a really big demoscene in Finland,\u201d says Hiltunen. Demoscene, he explains, is basically a computer-art subculture of recreational developers who gather to show off their skills, often at events and conferences. Finland\u2019s Assembly demoscene parties, which have been going since 1992 and last summer drew 5,500 people, are renowned the world over as a hotbed of video game talent. \u201cA lot of the early pioneers of the industry started at these events,\u201d says Hiltunen.\nOne of Finland\u2019s first major successes was Max Payne, a third-person shooter that has sold more than 7.5 million copies since the series started in 2001. Its makers, Remedy Entertainment, who also make the Alan Wake series, are very much a demoscene company. Four of Remedy\u2019s founders were part of Future Crew, one of Finland\u2019s most prominent demo crews in the early 1990s.\nRovio started in a similar way in 2003, when three students at the Helsinki University of Technology met at an Assembly game-development competition sponsored by Nokia and HP. The success of Niklas Hed, Jarno V\u00e4kev\u00e4inen and Kim Dikert\u2019s winning creation, a real-time multiplayer game called King of the Cabbage World, encouraged them to set up their own company.\nRovio\u2019s beginnings hint at another reason Finland is getting ahead, especially when it comes to mobile games.\nThough traditional console companies such as Remedy are still doing well, around 80 per cent of Finland\u2019s game companies see mobile \u2013 phones and tablets \u2013 as their primary platform, compared to around 50 per cent elsewhere in the world. \u201cThere are a few for that,\u201d says Hiltunen. \u201cFinnish company Nokia has been important, of course, because a lot of people here became interested in mobile technology and that culture became ingrained.\u201d\nMore important, he says, is the fact that mobile games play into the hands of Finland\u2019s many small start-ups. \u201cMobile games are different to console games because you can produce them in a few months, whereas big console titles often take years and lots of money to develop. The App Store has made things democratic \u2013 it means Finnish companies can compete against the world, and if the game\u2019s good enough it will be a success. Finnish companies are often small and agile, and they can react quickly.\u201d\nThe success of the likes of the Supercell titles has also helped inspire others to join the industry. While five years ago there was nowhere official to learn video-game development, 10 Finnish universities now offer game-development courses. \u201cTraditional industries like forestry have faded out in Finland,\u201d says Ville Heijari, Rovio\u2019s senior vice president of marketing, \u201d so education facilities have started to think, \u2018What are people going to do now?'\u201d\nHeijari welcomes the fresh competition. \u201cThere is a batch of companies coming up and any one of them can be significant. It\u2019s good news and will fuel the industry.\u201d He\u2019s wary, though, about predicting the next Angry Birds. \u201cWe\u2019re a bad example in a way, because Angry Birds is a bit of an outlier. Most developers are ecstatic to get two million people playing their games.\u201d\nBoth Heijari and Hiltunen agree that diversity in the industry is good news. \u201cWe don\u2019t want one giant company,\u201d says Hiltunen.\n\u201cWe want a thriving ecosystem. Of course, some of them will fail, but often the biggest success stories here are run by people who are on their second or third company. In Finnish, we call it the teachings of Siberia: a clever guy who fails once won\u2019t do it twice.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s clear when spending even a little time with game developers in Helsinki is that everyone seems to know everyone. The Finnish chapter of the International Game Developers Association (IGDA) is one of the biggest in the world, and organises regular friendly meetups. Everyone seems genuine when they say there\u2019s support rather than competition between the various companies. Hiltunen says: \u201cFinland is a small place. It\u2019s great for sharing information and inspiring each other, but the challenge is finding enough new people \u2013 the industry\u2019s growing so fast that we need 200-400 new employees a year.\u201d\nAt least you can see why young people might find a career in video games appealing. Supercell\u2019s Visander describes her company as \u201cthe company of our dreams\u201d, talking not just about the flat management structure and lack of bureacracy, but the adult-sized ball pit next to her desk. \u201cWe\u2019re pretty nerdy,\u201d she admits, though all of Finland\u2019s game companies seem like good fun. RedLynx, a major game developer we visited, has a Fight Club meeting room with a soft mat and Mexican wrestling masks. And how bad can any career be with job titles like video-games tester?\nHiltunen, like everyone I speak to, seems convinced that the video-game industry in Finland is only set to grow \u2013 having met a few different companies, it\u2019s hard to disagree. In this corner of the world at least, the geeks appear to be inheriting the earth.",

        "title": "ACA-Supreme Court Musings | Tom Raffio",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 Run To The Clouds\nThe highest court in the country has spoken; The Affordable Care Act will continue as we know it. \u2192\nACA-Supreme Court Musings\nI have read extensively over the past three months about how the Supreme Court may rule next week on the pending case regarding the ACA. I have read articles from some of this country\u2019s most respected experts and none of them can agree as to how the United States Supreme Court will rule. At Northeast Delta Dental, we have added resources to help prepare us for any outcome as the market is changing irrespective of the Supreme Court decision.\nNow I am going to speak with a different voice. As CEO, I try to provide you with pertinent information that directly affects you as a participating member dentist, purchaser, or subscriber. This time I am going to give you my opinion on how I believe the USSC will rule. In any event, please do not infer from anything that I say here that I am taking a position supporting or opposing the ACA. The ruling will affect you as a dentist, small business employer, large group decision maker, parent, child, and citizen.\nI am going to concentrate on the minimum provision clause, the so-called \u2018individual mandate\u2019: the government compelling an individual to enter into commerce to purchase health care insurance. This part of the law will affect every American.\nFirst, the USSC has to rule whether this is a tax or a tax penalty. If it is ruled a tax, then under the Anti-Injunction Act (AIA) of 1867, until the tax is collected in 2014 it cannot be ruled on by the USSC. If it is ruled a penalty, then they can rule on it immediately.\nI believe it will be ruled a penalty and the USSC will find the individual mandate unconstitutional.\nThe next aspect that would be decided upon is whether the individual mandate can be severed from the rest of the law. Most legislation includes that verbiage; however in this case, they either forgot or purposely left it out. By severing, it would allow only the individual mandate to be struck down as unconstitutional on its own and allow part or the rest of the law to continue as is.\nI think it will be severed and then the USSC will rule on the Medicaid Expansion clause. I believe they, like every lower court has, will uphold this part of the law as not being coercive to the state of Florida and the other 25 states who have filed the case.\nWithout the individual mandate, 43 million Americans who presently are without health care insurance will not be required to purchase it; therefore, there will be less income to implement several parts of the ACA.\nWhat will stay preserved are the State Exchanges, a young adult to be added to a parent\u2019s health insurance plan until the age of 26, and the allowance of people to purchase a health insurance plan regardless of any precondition.\nWith regard to the State Exchanges:\nMaine: Governor Paul LePage informed the HHS in April that Maine would not be pursuing efforts to create an Exchange; however, then signed into law a Navigator Program which allows brokers to act as navigators in the Exchange.\nNew Hampshire: Governor Lynch signed into law a bill that prohibits planning, creation or participation in a State Exchange, but protects State control of the New Hampshire insurance industry as a condition of participating in a \u201cfederally facilitated exchange.\u201d\nVermont has adopted a State Exchange and is moving towards a single payer system in which all its citizens will purchase health care insurance through their Exchange.\nThe remainder of the 47 states may choose one of those models.\nThat is it for now; I will follow up next week. Depending on how the USSC rules, you may either want to consult with me to pick who is going to win the World Series in the fall or ask me to go back and do what I do best, which is to lead a strong prepaid dental benefits organization.\nThis entry was posted in Health Care Reform, Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Bookmark the permalink.\n2 Responses to ACA-Supreme Court Musings\nThank you, Tom, for your succinct and informative overview. Regardless of how the Court rules, the healthcare system needs to change. As of the 2001 census, microbusiness mades up almost 70% of all business in America, however very few microbusiness owners can afford healthcare for themselves or their employees; the system is failing most American business owners. IMHO, the Supreme Court is tending more toward political decisions that judicial ones.\nAs my friend Jorge Redmond, CEO of Chocolates El Rey in Venezuela said of Hugo Chavez this weekend, we\u2019ll outlive the politics, but it might not be pleasant.\nThank you for your comment on my blog. As you know, and per my latest blog, the Supreme Court has spoken and basically the entire ACA survives, except for a piece of the Medicaid provision. I believe Chief Justice Robert\u2019s opinion (that it is a tax, even though President Obama said it was not a tax) was such that he didn\u2019t want the Supreme Court to make the call \u2013 rather, if the current or future congress and the body politic (\u201cthe people\u201d) don\u2019t like some of the ACA provisions, then make new law or elect new legislators to make new law. So, Mr. Redmond may be right, and it appears political considerations crept into the Supreme Court (and the Supreme Court\u2019s apolitical credibility may still be recovering from the 5 to 4 Presidential election decision, Bush v. Gore).\nIn any event, whether the ACA is a tax or not, health care costs continue to increase. The ACA may ultimately fix access and universal coverage, but it doesn\u2019t appear to address the cost issue. As my good friend and business mentor, Dr. Syl Dupuis likes to say, in health care, one can have two of the following three: robust access, low price, high quality. And we Americans tend to want all three! I do understand that health care costs are difficult for small employers to deal with, and candidly, even for large employers.\nThanks Rich for writing to me.",

        "raw_content": "Experiences, like having a child or losing a lot of weight, can be life-changing. While these experiences are something most people look forward to, there are a number of complications that may arise. Stretch marks are among the most common problems an individual will face after childbirth or excessive weight gain.\nPeople who have these marks on their body are typically self-conscious about them. Taking advantage of the laser stretch mark removal Madison and Milwaukee WI services offered by Total Body Laser Skin Care is a great idea, and here are some of the reasons why.\nTHE POWER OF ADVANCED STRETCH MARK REMOVAL TREATMENTS\nThe non-invasive stretch mark removal procedure offered by Total Body Laser Skin Care involves the use of light wavelengths. The energy from these wavelengths is absorbed by the stretch marks on a patient\u2019s body. The blood vessels beneath the stretch marks will take in this light and collapse as a result.\nThe discoloration caused by these marks will fade after the laser stretch mark treatment is complete. The localized and controlled damage caused by the stretch mark removal treatment will promote the production of more collagen. This collagen will be used to smooth out the area where the stretch mark once was.\nTHERE IS NO DOWNTIME WITH THIS TREATMENT\nOne of the first things most patients want to know about this treatment is how long it lasts and how long they will be down after the procedure is completed. Typically, this treatment will take around 20 to 40 minutes to complete. The total amount of treatment time depends on the size of the affected area.\nWith the no downtime stretch mark removal procedure, patients are able to get back to work immediately. Generally, people who have this treatment are able to see results in as little as 24 hours.\nGetting rid of unsightly stretch marks is easy with the help of Total Body Laser Skin Care. Call them today to find out more about the procedures they offer. The main goal is to provide patients with the comprehensive results they are looking for.\nFREE CONFIDENTIAL LASER STRETCH MARK REMOVAL CONSULTATION",

        "raw_content": "Looking for a far flung mountain biking destination for next summer? Here are five great mountain biking spots around the world that are worth a visit!\nby The Reluctant Cyclist\nLooking for a far flung mountain biking destination to tackle next summer? Here are five great mountain biking spots around the world that are definitely worth considering and ticking of your bucket list!\nBeen somewhere you rate that you think should be on this list? Why not share your experience in the comments below.\nThe most common destination for British mountain bikers, and one of the best playgrounds in the world. Easy to get to from the UK, and plenty of choice of riding, from downhill in Morzine to all-mountain in Chamonix, there really is something for everyone.\nAn extensive system of chairlifts makes it easy to explore the mountains with barely any uphill riding, so you can just enjoy the descents. The centre of all things mountain bike for the Alps is Morzine, where you will find dozens of chairlifts open, throngs of British riders all summer and plenty of bike-friendly accommodation. Careful, you won\u2019t ever want to leave.\nGreat mountain biking spots don\u2019t get much better than in the Whilster Mountain Bike Park, which offers more terrain to explore than any other bike park in North America.\nWidely considered to be one of the best mountain bike destinations in the world, Whistler really needs no introduction. Located in the stunning coast mountains of British Columbia, Whistler offers over 120 miles of trails with many accessible by the chair lifts used during the ski season.\nInside the Whistler Bike Park there\u2019s over 50 way-marked runs which vary in difficulty and technicality. The trails cater for beginners through to experts and there are coaching courses for anyone wanting to brush up on their skills.\nThere\u2019s a lot more riding to explore than just the trails in the Bike Park though, so make sure you get exploring and/or book a guide when you visit.\nNestling on the western edge of the fearsome Rocky Mountains, Park City not only offers the spectacular scenery you would expect of such a location but also some of the best trails in the world. It helps if you like a spot of high altitude riding; Park City sits at 2,100m and the trails go a further couple of thousand metres higher.\nOn offer is some of the best technical singletrack anywhere in the world. There\u2019s a large network of trails and they\u2019re all well sign-posted so easy to find. There\u2019s something for all ability levels.\nFirmly put on the world map with the hosting of the 2006 world championships, New Zealand\u2019s Rotorua has been described by many as one of the hottest places to ride.\nIt has an impressive claim to the title of the \u2018best trails in the world\u2019, with a network of over 100km of trails built in the Whakarewarewa Forest, which are also some of the oldest in the country. A rich playground of trails in lush surroundings makes it a must-ride destination.\nSun, sea and steep descents make this one of our favourite great mountain biking spots.\nThe Mediterranean resort of Finale Ligure is one of the best known riding spots on this list, but it\u2019s easily up there with the best. As easy to get to, relatively, as the French Alps, Finale Ligure has a fine network of trails resting on the rolling hills close to the coast.\nWith the highest hills topping out at about 1,400 metres, it can\u2019t boast the same sheer altitude as other places, but it more than makes up for that with stunning, flowy trails. There are no chairlifts here, but there are holiday companies running shuttle services.\nIt suits bikes from 120-160mm, so the current crop of lightweight trail to all-mountain bikes makes the perfect choice. The trails are very natural, full of roots and rocks and can get very tight and twisty in places, meaning it fully tests your riding skills to their limit.\nLiked 5 Great Mountain Biking Spots Around the World?

I believe in a life that we can all share as one. Through my work volunteering I was inspired to continue connecting with others around the world when I am not traveling. I wanted to create something that will give back to those I have worked with but also something that symbolizes my beliefs in my daily life. While I was volunteering in Tanzania, I was taught a phrase in Swahili that really stuck with me: \u201cTupo Pamoja\u201d. This translates to \u201cWe are together\u201d in English. This inspired me to create necklaces engraved with phrases in different languages around the world that symbolize unity, connecting people across the world. I decided that a portion of profits from the necklaces will be donated to \u2018Global Giving\u2019, an organization I think highly of and am excited to work with. I also have chosen to have the boxes for the necklaces made with recycled products as a more environmentally friendly option. I asked my mother (who makes jewelry through her business, Moon Tide Designs) to be a part of it. I am excited to work with her creating these necklaces, and she is excited to work with me for a cause we both believe in. The necklaces come in all different languages, all saying phrases that mean unity for all- we are one. Choose the language you would like your necklace to be in.\nIf there is a language that you want that is not currently offered contact me and we can make it!\nPlease contact if you need a different size or style and we will try and accommodate!\nClick below to purchase a necklace!",

        "raw_content": "Democrats Sabotage Their Own Efforts To Fight Climate Change\nClimate change is the greatest threat facing this planet, and even though a majority of voters want Congress to take action, the Democrats in the House aren\u2019t taking the issue seriously. Nancy Pelosi has created a select committee on climate change, and while that sounds good on paper, the committee has virtually no power to do anything to address climate change. Ring of Fire\u2019s Mike Papantonio and Farron Cousins discusses this.\nMike Papantonio: Climate change is the greatest threat facing this planet. Even though a majority of voters want Congress to take action, the Democrats have blown it again. Okay. Remember our discussion? How many times, okay, well let me, let me just say, Democrats win the house, right? And we\u2019re looking for, okay, you love Cortez. I\u2019m not too sure about Cortez yet. Votes aren\u2019t in.\nI kind of like her stuff, but one thing that she did a great job, I mean really she ran on the idea of the Green New Deal and she was out there doing such an incredibly important job saying the Green New Deal matters and if you put us in charge, we\u2019re going to make it work. Okay. I love that about her. I mean it was just such a smart approach and in there what she was doing little by little is she\u2019s alienating the other older Democrats, which I love too because they are dinosaurs.\nMike Papantonio: She\u2019s alienating Pelosi, Schumer, everybody that I think is a total waste in Congress should have been gone years ago. I love Cortez is doing that. She\u2019s trying to shake some stuff up. Cenk Uygur with, you know, one of our partners at TYT, thinks she\u2019s one of the most brilliant young politicians coming up. I\u2019m still watching. I\u2019m not, you know, I always, I always hold reservations for a little while, but anyway, she did this right. Okay. Congress, Democrats take over. They put together the committee that is supposed to take over the climate change problem, right? Pick it, pick it up from there.\nFarron Cousins: Well, they, you know, Pelosi actually was never one of the signers onto the Green New Deal as you mentioned. And we had dozens of members of Congress before she even created this committee that we\u2019re pushing for the creation of the Green New Deal committee. You know, put Ocasio-Cortez on it, put people like Ro Khanna on it, the people who believe it.\nMike Papantonio: Ro Khanna by the way is brilliant.\nFarron Cousins: He is, he\u2019s definitely somebody to\u2026\nMike Papantonio: Ro Khanna, Ro Khanna is a guy, him and Merkley.\nFarron Cousins: Yet Merkley.\nMike Papantonio: Merkley, I mean those two, I mean, you gotta, we better follow them.\nMike Papantonio: Ro Khanna is somebody to, to deal with. But anyway, go ahead.\nFarron Cousins: And so Pelosi comes along and says, well, this could, you know, this might effect some donors. So here, okay, I\u2019ll, I\u2019ll throw you a bone here. I\u2019ll recreate the committee that I made back in 2007. That was completely ineffective and what I\u2019ll do for you here is also make it even more ineffective than it was back in \u201907 by stripping you of all your power and not putting actual progressive\u2019s on this committee.\nMike Papantonio: No no, the 2000 committee wasn\u2019t only ineffective, it took us the other way.\nMike Papantonio: It took us the other way. That was the Pelosi committee. Okay. So, okay, here\u2019s what really grabbed me about this story. Pelosi doesn\u2019t put Cortez on the committee.\nMike Papantonio: Okay. Cortez is out there. She\u2019s calling attention to climate change. She\u2019s got the Green New Deal as part of, of her discussion. Ro Khanna is out there, same thing. They\u2019re all, all the people that we should embrace and we should help in every way we can. None of those people show up because they are a threat to the dinosaurs, to the democratic dinosaurs.\nYou know what? Now, I\u2019m not taking much exception with what you said, but you said, or the article at least leads you to believe that the committee in 2007 is basically the same committee that we have in 2019. That is true. As a matter of fact, the, on the new committee, the minority whip got to appoint 6 of the 15.\nWhy do you think that it looked like? Right? Okay. More importantly on the new committee, they\u2019ve taken away subpoena power. There is no subpoena power. The committee, okay, here\u2019s what the committee can\u2019t do. A, they can\u2019t write legislation. B, they can\u2019t even propose legislation. C, they can\u2019t subpoena all the bad guys to find out what\u2019s really going on. D, they have, they have Chinese walls up about what they\u2019re able to discuss about climate change.\nThe fact is it\u2019s a joke. Pelosi is a joke. Pelosi knows this is, this is a giveaway. Oh, here\u2019s something else. D, or E, wherever we are, they\u2019re able to raise money from the fossil fuel industry. Now, did I miss anything?\nFarron Cousins: No. That pretty much sums up all of, all of this crazy and look, we just got reports, actually multiple reports in the last few months, the last year saying we have 12 years and then we\u2019re screwed, basically on climate change. Twelve years. That\u2019s it to do something. Pelosi\u2026\nMike Papantonio: Wait, explain that. You\u2019ve written a lot on climate change that you write for DeSmogBlog as well as the National Trial Journal, talk about, people don\u2019t understand this completely.\nFarron Cousins: Right. If we do not reverse course within 12 years significantly, we cannot stave off the 1.5 degree Celsius warming, and the bigger issue is that 12 years is as of right now. If we continue on for another year or two, that number 12 is going to drop down to about 6 or 7. So you know, as we continue to not act, the number of years we have left, obviously time ticks on, it goes down, but the warming gets worse, so the timetable goes down. We\u2019ve got about five years realistically.\nMike Papantonio: And in light of that, Nancy Pelosi basically, there\u2019s no other way to put it, she deep sixed climate change. She deep six it, along with all the leadership up there. I mean, you know.\nFarron Cousins: And for no reason. You know, we used to talk through the entire Obama administration. We had a list hanging on the wall of everything the Democrats caved to Republicans on in order to \u201cmake a deal.\u201d\nMike Papantonio: Good point.\nFarron Cousins: She didn\u2019t have to make a deal. She did this on her own. Capitulating to no one because that\u2019s her standard position.\nMike Papantonio: In other words, in other words, there used to be an argument, well we\u2019re not really in control. We have to get right. She doesn\u2019t have to get along.\nFarron Cousins: This was her baby. She could\u2019ve made it whatever she wanted it to be. And instead says, uh, I\u2019m used to backing off things, so let me just water it down.\nMike Papantonio: Yeah, I am a total failure.",

        "raw_content": "Battlefield V: How to Save\nHome \u00bb Guides \u00bb Battlefield V: How to Save\nHow to Save in Battlefield V\nBattlefield V is out in the wild and players will be able to experience the game\u2019s war stories campaign mode, similar to what was seen in the previous game. If you\u2019re here, you\u2019re probably wondering how to save in Battlefield V.\nThings haven\u2019t changed from the last game in the series. Depending on your preferences, this could be construed as either good, or bad news.\nWar Stories are back, and rather it being one long campaign, like what is seen in many other first-person shooters, you\u2019re playing through a series of smaller short stories that take place all over the war\u2019s various fronts.\nBattlefield V takes an approach of focusing in on less \u201cromantic\u201d fronts of World War II such as Scandinavia and Northern Africa.\nSaving in Battlefield V though is what you would expect. There is no manual save files, and you\u2019ll be relying on an autosave function instead.\nIn each mission/chapter throughout the game, you\u2019ll be completing objectives, and each time you complete one of these, and move onto the next, you\u2019ll see a white circle appear in the right corner of the screen.\nThis symbol let\u2019s you know that Battlefield V is autosaving and that you should not turn off the console while that is going on. Once it has gone away, you\u2019re are clear to to quit the mission without losing progress from that point, or turn off your console.\nThere are other times, where the game autosaves but it\u2019s a bit unpredictable. The safest way is to just wait to quit your mission once you\u2019ve completed a major objective in the mission, or complete the chapter entirely. That\u2019s the best way to be sure.\nThat\u2019s all you need to know for how to save in Battlefield V. For more info about the game, take a gander at the latest multiplayer trailer, the most recent news on the status of its battle royale mode, and DICE\u2019s approach to war stories this time around.\nRelated Topics:Battlefield V, how to save, war stories\nCrackdown 3: How to Save Your Game\nFar Cry New Dawn: How to Save Your Game\nKingdom Hearts 3: How to Save\nBy Bogdan Robert MatesJanuary 28, 2019",

T.\nThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between transepidermal water loss and skin permeability to tritiated water ((H2O)-H-3) and the lipophilic penetrant sulfur mustard in vitro . No correlation was found between basal transepidermal water loss rates and the permeability of human epidermal membranes to (H2O)-H-3 (p = 0.72) or sulfur mustard (p = 0.74). Similarly, there was no correlation between transepidermal water loss rates and the (H2O)-H-3 permeability of full-thickness pig skin (p = 0.68). There was no correlation between transepidermal water loss rate and (H2O)-H-3 permeability following up to 15 tape strips (p = 0.64) or up to four needle-stick punctures (p = 0.13). These data indicate that transepidermal water loss cannot be unconditionally ascribed to be a measure of skin barrier function. It is clear that further work should be conducted to interpret the significance of measuring transepidermal water loss by evaporimetry.",

        "raw_content": "An Efficient Mode Decision Algorithm Based on Dynamic Grouping and Adaptive Adjustment for H.264/AVC\nZhan, B.\nHou, B.\nThe rate distortion optimization (RDO) enabled mode decision (MD) is one of the most important techniques introduced by H.264/AVC. By adopting the exhaustive calculation of rate distortion, the optimal MD enhances the video encoding quality. However, the computational complexity is significantly increased, which is a key challenge for real-time and low power consumption applications. This paper presents a new fast MD algorithm for highly efficient H.264/AVC encoder. The proposed algorithm employs a dynamic group of candidate inter/intra modes to reduce the computational cost. In order to minimize the performance loss incurred by improper mode selection for the previously encoded frames, an adaptive adjustment scheme based on the undulation of bitrate and PSNR is suggested. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm reduces the encoding time by 35% on average, and the loss of PSNR is usually limited in 0.1 dB with less than 1% increase of bitrate.\nProcs IEEE Int Symposium on Signal Processing and Information Technology, ISSPIT 2007\nhttps://doi.org/10.1109/ISSPIT.2007.4458143",

Louise Brealey, she\u2019s more than just a pretty face\nFor decades leaders across the globe have known of the narcissistic tendencies North Korea\u2019s dictators possess. Their outrageous claims of a utopian super state capable of world domination is hardly a surprise. So much so that these threats have automatically been brushed off as nothing but an inflated bluff which should only be feared by the gullible.\nHot air and nothing more\nThe countless failed missile tests have further led to the world to question the validity of Kim Jong-un's motives as just a bunch of hot air and nothing more. So has this ignorance unknowingly put civilised society in a seriously vulnerable position?\nOne thing history has taught us is the only way to prevent the tragedies of the future is to learn from the mistakes of the past.\nCountless times we have seen this by ignoring the actions of evil dictators we have only allowed them to grow further unchecked.\nAs America starts to put more pressure on Kim Jong un\u2019s hermit kingdom, the greater success their missile threats have proven themselves to be. This was evident after the rogue regime fired a missile which flew directly over Japan.\nA grave threat\nAfter the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe talked with American president Donald Trump in a 40-minute phone call shortly following the launch Abe referred to Kim Jong un\u2019s action as an \u201cunprecedented and grave threat.\u201d\nAbe further confirmed the gravity of the situation by condemning Kim Jong Un\u2019s actions as, \u201cThe outrageous act of firing a missile over our country is an unprecedented, serious and grave threat and greatly damages regional peace and security.\u201d In a statement, he gave to reporters in Tokyo. Both leaders decided to request an emergency conference with the UN security council to discuss the situation.\nIgnorance is no longer viable\nClearly, the world maintaining a state of ignorance is no longer a viable option. One factor that so many have chosen to ignore is that North Korea is far from alone. Since it is hardly a secret their ally is none other than the Peoples Republic of China, who has refused to be aggressive or impose more sanctions on the DPRK.\nOn the contrary, China has taken the highly controversial route of urging all parties to calm down. Could there be more to this than China\u2019s desire to maintain a sense of diplomacy?\nNorth Korea\u2019s threats of annihilation have shown themselves to be slowing down now they have shifted their focus to the U.S. territory of Guam.\nOne thing is for sure Japan and America will no longer be taking it lying down.\nThis was clearly evident as in response to the recent events in Japan Donald Trump has vowed to stand, \u201c100% with Japan.\u201d",

While the IOC solution has obvious use for emergency operations centers and other government agencies, it also is gaining traction in the private sector, he said.\n\u201cNot only public entities but private entities\u2014such as insurance companies\u2014are finding a lot of value here, so they can predict and understand where they have risk, where they may be able to mitigate some of that risk by being more prepared for either a natural disaster or situations where there have been a number of malicious, human-created problems that they can deal with,\u201d Russo said during an interview with IWCE\u2019s Urgent Communications.\n\u201cThat offering allows us to not only respond to emergencies but also do a simulation of a large impending weather event. An entity can understand where certain critical assets may be taken offline and how to bring the environment back online, and make it normal again, as quickly and efficiently as possible.\u201d\nIOC is part of IBM\u2019s Safer Planet portfolio, which last week announced COPLINK on Cloud, which lets law-enforcement officials access about 1.1 billion criminal documents\u2014the largest such repository in the world\u2014in the IBM i2 COPLINK database by any authorized user with access to the cloud, Russo said.\nWhile COPLINK has been used for more than 20 years and is installed in 22 of 50 states in the U.S., it has been a premise-based solution in the past, Russo said. By making COPLINK a cloud-based solution, it will be more accessible to current customers and is expected to be more affordable to law-enforcement agencies that lacked the technical expertise to maintain an on-premise system.\n\u201cThat is now being made available as a cloud offering that will have all of the levels of security to protect the critical data, but it will be accessible to many law-enforcement agencies that either could not afford the cost of entry or the ability to put a system like that in place,\u201d Russo said.\nTags: Data Disaster Response Regional Planning Analytics Applications News Public Safety Software State & Local Government News\nNewscan: NY district attorney to Trump: Have our backs against cop-proof encryption",

        "raw_content": "Ever since I was a kid I was an avid reader. It was my escape from a difficult family situation and a hatred or fear of most of my teachers. I became something of a quiet rebel, rarely reading what I was supposed to read but always trying to bite off more than I could chew in terms of literature, history, and occasionally science. I did find, though, that I could chew almost anything \u2013 especially in literature and history. And I loved the taste. Science, though, was different. It certainly didn\u2019t come naturally to me. I didn\u2019t know any science buffs and in fact I had no mentors for any of my reading activities. We did have encyclopaedias, though, and my random reading turned up the likes of Einstein, Newton, Darwin, Pasteur and other Big Names in science. Of course I was more interested in their bios than in the nature of their exotic researches, but in my idealised view they seemed very pure in their quest for greater understanding of the material world. I sometimes wished I could be like them but mostly I just dived into \u2018literature\u2019, a more comfortable world in which ordinary lives were anatomised by high-brow authors like Austen, Eliot and James (I had a fetish for 19th century lit in my teens). I took silent pride in my critical understanding of these texts, it surely set me above my classmates, though I remember one day walking home with one of the smartest kids in my class, who regaled me with his exploration of the electronics of a transistor radio he was pulling apart at home. I remember trying to listen, half ashamed of my ignorance, half hoping to change the subject to something I could sound off about.\nLater, having dropped out of my much-loathed school, I started hanging out, or trying to, with other school drop-outs in my working-class neighbourhood. I didn\u2019t fit in with them to say the least, but the situation worsened when they began tinkering with or talking about cars, which held no interest for me. I was annoyed and impressed at how articulate they were about carbies, distributors and camshafts, and wondered if I was somehow wasting my life.\nInto my twenties, living la vie boheme in punk-fashionable poverty among art students and amateur philosophers, I read and was definitely intrigued by Alan Chalmers\u2019 unlikely best-seller What is this thing called science? It sparked a brief interest in the philosophy of science rather than science itself, but interestingly it was a novel that really set me to reading and trying to get my head around science \u2013 a big topic! \u2013 on a more or less daily basis. I was about 25 when I read Thomas Mann\u2019s The Magic Mountain, in which Hans Castorp, a young man of about my age at the time, was sent off to an alpine sanatorium to be cured of tuberculosis. Thus began a great intellectual adventure, but it was the scientific explorations that most spoke to me. Wrapped up in his loggia, reading various scientific texts, Castorp took the reader on a wondering tour of the origin of life, and of matter itself, and it struck me that these were the key questions \u2013 if you want to understand yourself, you need to understand humanity, and if you want to understand humanity you need to understand life itself, and if you want to understand life, you need to understand the matter that life is organised from, and if you need to understand matter\u2026\nI made a decision to inform myself about science in general, via the monthly magazine, Scientific American, where I learned at least something about oncogenes, neutrinos and the coming AIDS epidemic, inter alia. I read my first wholly scientific book, Dawkins\u2019 The Selfish Gene, and, as I was still living la vie boheme, I enjoyed the occasional lively argument with housemates or pub philosophers about the Nature of the Universe and related topics. In the years since I\u2019ve read and half-digested books on astronomy, cosmology, palaeontology and of course the history of science in general. I\u2019ve read The origin of species, Darwin\u2019s Voyage of the Beagle and at least four biographies of Darwin, including the monumental biography by Adrian Desmond and James Moore. I\u2019ve also read a biography of Alfred Russell Wallace, and more recently, Siddhartha Mukherjee\u2019s The Gene, which traces the search for the cause of the random variation essential to the Darwin-Wallace theory. And I still read science magazines like Cosmos on a more or less daily basis.\nThese readings have afforded me some of the greatest pleasures of my life, which would, I suppose, be enough to justify them. But I should try to answer the why question. Why is science so thrilling? The answer, I hope, is obvious. It isn\u2019t science that\u2019s thrilling, it\u2019s our world. I\u2019m not a science geek, it doesn\u2019t come easily to me. When, for example, a tech-head explains how an electronic circuit works, I have to watch the video many times over, look up terms, refer to related videos, etc, in order to fix it in my head, and then, like most people, I forget the vast majority of what I read, watch or listen to. But what keeps me going is a fascination for the world \u2013 and the questions raised. How did the Earth form? Where did the water come from? How is it that matter is electrical, full of charge? How did language evolve? How has our Earth\u2019s atmosphere evolved? How are we related to bananas, fruit flies, australopithecines and bats? How does our microbiome relate to obesity? What can we expect from CRISPR/Cas9 editing technology? What\u2019s the future for autonomous vehicles, brain-controlled drones and new-era smart phones?\nThis all might sound like gaga adolescent optimism, but I\u2019m only cautiously optimistic, or maybe not optimistic at all, just fascinated about what might happen, on the upside and the downside. And I\u2019m endlessly impressed by human ingenuity in discovering new things and using those discoveries in innovative ways. I\u2019m also fascinated, in a less positive way, by the anti-scientific tendencies of conspiracy theorists, religionists, new-agers and those who identify with and seem trapped by \u2018heavy culture\u2019. Podcasts such as The Skeptics\u2019 Guide to the Universe, Skeptoid and Australia\u2019s The Skeptic Zone, as well as various science-based blogs like Why Evolution is True and Skeptical Science are fighting a seemingly never-ending fight against the misinformation churned out by passionate supporters of fixed non-evidence-based positions. But spending too much time arguing with such types does your head in, and I prefer trying to accentuate the positive than trying to eliminate the negative.\nAnd on that positive side, exciting things are always happening, whether it\u2019s battery technology, cancer research, exoplanetary discoveries, robotics or brain implants, more developments are occurring than any one person can keep abreast of.\nSo I\u2019ll end with some positive and reassuring remarks about science. It\u2019s not some esoteric activity to be suspicious of, but neither is it something easily definable. It\u2019s not a search for the truth, it\u2019s more a search for the best, most comprehensive, most consistent and productive explanation for phenomena. I don\u2019t believe there\u2019s such a thing as the scientific method \u2013 the methods of Einstein can\u2019t easily be compared with those of Darwin. Methods necessarily differ with the often vast differences between the phenomena under investigation. Conspiracy theories such as the moon landings \u2018hoax\u2019 or the climate science \u2018fraud\u2019 would require that scientists and their ancillaries are incredibly disciplined, virtually robotic collaborators in sinister plots, rather than normal, questing, competitive, collaborative, inspired and inspiring individuals, struggling desperately to make sense and make breakthroughs. In the field of human health, scientists are faced with explaining the most complex organism we know of \u2013 the human body with its often perverse human mind. It\u2019s not at all surprising that pseudo-science and quackery is so common in this field, in which everyone wants to live and thrive as long as possible. But we need to be aware that with such complexity we will encounter many false hopes and only partial solutions. The overall story, though, is positive \u2013 we\u2019re living longer and healthier, in statistical terms, than ever before. The past, for the most part, is another country which we might like to briefly visit, but we wouldn\u2019t want to live there. And science is largely to be thanked for that. So, why not science? The alternatives do nothing for me.\nThe SGU team \u2013 science nerds fighting the good fight\nPosted in argument, scientific method\nTagged with alternative medicine, evolution, health, history, religion, science, skepticism, society\nWhen was the first language? When was the first human?\nReading a new book of mine, Steven Pinker\u2019s The sense of style, 2014, I was bemused by his casual remark on the first page of the first chapter, \u2018The spoken word is older than our species\u2026\u2019. Hmmm. As Bill Bryson put it in A short history of nearly everything, \u2018How do they know that?\u2019. And maybe I should dispense with \u2018they\u2019 here \u2013 how does Pinker know that? My previous shallow research has told me that nobody knows when the first full-fledged language was spoken. Furthermore, we\u2019re not sure about the first full-fledged human either. Was it mitochondrial Eve? But what about her mum? And her mum\u2019s great-grandad? Which raises an old conundrum, one that very much exercised Darwin, and which creationists today love to make much of, the conundrum of speciation.\nRecently, palaeontologists discovered human-like remains that might be 300,000 years old in a Moroccan cave. Or, that\u2019s the story as I first heard it. Turns out they were discovered decades ago and dated at about 40,000 years, though some of their features didn\u2019t match with that age. They\u2019ve been reanalysed using thermoluminescense dating, a complicated technique involving measuring light emitted from escaping electrons (don\u2019t ask). No doubt the dating findings will be disputed, as well as findings about just how human these early humans \u2013 about 100,000 years earlier than the usual Ethiopian suspects \u2013 really are. It\u2019s another version of the lumpers/splitters debate, I suspect. It\u2019s generally recognised that the Moroccan specimens have smaller brains than those from Ethiopia, but it\u2019s not necessarily the case that they\u2019re direct ancestors, proof that there was a rapid brain expansion in the intervening period.\nStill there\u2019s no doubt that the Moroccan finding, if it holds up, is significant, as at the very least it pushes back findings on the middle Stone Age, when the making of stone blades began, according to Ian Tattersall, the curator emeritus of human origins at the American Museum of Natural History. But as to tracing our ancestry back to \u2018the first humans\u2019, we just can\u2019t do this at present, we can\u2019t join the dots because we have far too few dots to join. It\u2019s a question whether we\u2019ll ever have enough. Evolution isn\u2019t just gradual, it\u2019s divergent, bushy. Where does Homo naledi, dated to around 250,000 years ago, fit into the picture? What about the Denisovans?\nMeanwhile, new research and technologies continue to complicate the picture of humans and their ancestors. It\u2019s been generally accepted that the last common ancestor of chimps and humans lived between 5 and 7 million years ago in Africa, but a multinational team of researchers has cast doubt on the assumption of African origin. The research focused on dental structures in two specimens of the fossil hominid Graecopithecus freybergi, found in Greece and Bulgaria. They found that the roots of their premolars were partially fused, making them similar to those of the human lineage, from Ardepithecus and Australopithecus to modern humans. These fossils date to around 7.2 million years ago. It\u2019s conjectured that the possible placing of the divergence further north than has previously been hypothesised has much to do with environmental factors of the time. So, okay, African conditions were more northerly in those days\u2026\nSo these new findings and new dating techniques are adding to the picture without clarifying it much, as yet. They\u2019re like tiny pieces in a massive jigsaw puzzle, gradually accumulating, sometimes shifted to places of better fit, and so tantalisingly offering new perspectives on what the whole history might look like. I can imagine that in this field, as in so many others, researchers are chafing against their own mortality, as they yearn for a clearer, more comprehensive future view.\nMeanwhile, speculations continue. Colin Barras offers his own in a recent New Scientist article, in which he considers the spread of H sapiens in relation to H naledi and H floresiensis. The 1800 or so H naledi fossil bones, discovered in a South African cave four years ago by a team of researchers led by Lee Berger, took a while to be reliably dated to around 250,000 years (give or take some 50,000), just a bit earlier than the most reliably dated H sapiens (though that may change). Getting at a precise age for fossils is often difficult and depends on many variables, in particular the surrounding rock or sediment, and many researchers were opting for a much earlier period on the evidence of the specimens themselves \u2013 their small brain size, their curved fingers and other formations. But if the most recent dating figure is correct (and there\u2019s still some doubt) then, according to Barras, it just might be that H sapiens co-existed, in time and place, with these more primitive hominids, and outcompeted them. And more recent dating of H floresiensis, those isolated (so far as we currently know) hominids from the Indonesian island of Flores, has ruled out that they lived less than 50,000 years ago, so their extinction, again, may have coincided with the spread of all-conquering H sapiens. Their remote island location may explain their survival into relatively recent times, but their ancestry is very much in dispute. A recent, apparently comprehensive analysis may have solved the mystery however. It suggests H floresiensis descended from an undiscovered ancestor that left Africa over 2 million years ago. Those who stayed put evolved into H habilis, the first tool makers. Those who left may have reached the Flores region more than 700,000 years ago. The analysis is based on detailed comparisons with many other hominid species and earlier ancestors.\nI doubt there will ever be agreement on the first humans, or a very precise date. We\u2019re not so easily defined. But what about the first language? Is it confined to our species?\nMuch of the speculation on this question focuses on our Neanderthal cousins as the most likely candidates. Researchers have examined the Neanderthal throat structure as far as possible (soft tissue doesn\u2019t fossilise, which is a problem), and have found one intriguing piece of evidence that makes Neanderthal speech plausible. The semi-circular hyoid bone is located high in the human throat, and is found in the same place in the Neanderthal throat. Given that this bone is differently placed in the throat of our common ancestors, this appears to be an example of convergent evolution. We don\u2019t know the precise role of the hyoid in speech, but it certainly affects the space of the throat, and its flexible relationship to other bones and signs of its \u2018intense and constant activity\u2019 are suggestive of a role in language. Examination of the hyoids of other hominids suggests that a rudimentary form of language may go back at least 500,000 years, but this is far from confirmed. It\u2019s probable that language underwent a more rapid development between 75,000 and 50,000 years ago. It\u2019s also worth noting that a full-fledged language doesn\u2019t depend on speech, as signing proves. It may be that a more or less sophisticated gestural system preceded spoken language.\na selection of primate hyoid bones\nOf course there\u2019s an awful lot more to say on the origin of language, even if much of it\u2019s highly speculative. I plan to watch all the best videos and online lectures on the subject, and I\u2019ll post about it again soon.\nhttps://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2017/6/7/15745714/nature-homo-sapien-remains-jebel-irhoud\nDid Neanderthals Speak?\nhttp://www.isciencetimes.com/articles/6557/20131220/neanderthals-speak-like-humans-hyoid-bone-study.htm\nhttps://www.newscientist.com/article/2128483-mystery-human-hobbit-ancestor-may-have-been-first-out-of-africa/\nhttps://www.newscientist.com/article/2128834-homo-naledi-is-only-250000-years-old-heres-why-that-matters/\nPosted in human origins, language, paleontology, primates\nTagged with evolution, Homo floresiensis, Homo naledi, language, Neanderthals, science\nCARE and women\u2019s empowerment\nWe have an abundance of rape and violence against women in this country and on this Earth, though it\u2019s almost never treated as a civil rights or human rights issue, or a crisis, or even a pattern. Violence doesn\u2019t have a race, a class, a religion or a nationality, but it does have a gender.\nRebecca Solnit, author and historian\nCanto: So the CARE organisation, an NGO with a long history, is perhaps best known to us here due to our former PM Malcolm Fraser becoming the founder of CARE Australia in 1987, and the president of CARE international from 1990 to 1995. It\u2019s one of the oldest humanitarian aid organisations, with its origins in the forties, in that post-war period when international co-operation and healing became something of an obsession. But did you know that in recent times it has directed its focus on the empowerment of women in disadvantaged circumstances?\nJacinta: Yes, this is something we\u2019ve been discovering only recently, and if you go to the CARE website right now you\u2019ll find the leading article there is about women fleeing Syria, often with children, and about the increasing number of female-headed families among Syrian refugees in Jordan and elsewhere.\nCanto: Well, that\u2019s illustrative, and as you know I\u2019ve just read Melvin Konner\u2019s book, Women after all: sex, evolution and the end of male supremacy, and it has a few pages on CARE and how it has kind of renewed itself in recent times by focusing on female disadvantage, and I think that\u2019s a damn good idea.\nJacinta: Yes, not exclusively of course, but it has been focusing on education and empowerment \u2013 those things go naturally together of course \u2013 which is more of an issue for women in countries like India and many African countries.\nCanto: Oh yeah in many countries, wherever you have extreme male dominance you have women reduced to drudgery, virtual slavery, if not actual slavery, women forced into marriage at an early age, an acceptance of rape within marriage, and of course women and girls deprived of whatever paltry education they have in these benighted regions. And these are the most violent and backward regions in the world, but I suppose we\u2019ve harped on that enough already.\nJacinta: So what specifically is CARE doing for women?\nCanto: Well its rebranding, as Konner describes it, began nearly a decade ago with a campaign called \u2018I am Powerful\u2019 developed by Helene Gayle, then CEO of CARE USA. It was all about knowledge being power and education being key, and this was focused on in a lot of problem regions, in India, Bangladesh, Yemen\u2026\nJacinta: I read that, in India, of the children not attending school, 80% are female. One of the worst records anywhere, but of course, the percentage of girls not being educated is always higher than boys wherever you look.\nCanto: Even in Australia?\nJacinta: Well, I\u2019m guessing, but we\u2019ve not quite reached gender equality, and then there are migrants coming from heavily patriarchal societies\u2026\nCanto: Anyway the research they did showed the knock-on effects of education for women and girls. Educated girls postpone motherhood, have fewer kids, healthier kids, better educated kids, and this transfers to the next generation and the next in a multiplier effect.\nJacinta: And educated women earn more, suffer less abuse, are healthier\u2026\nCanto: So they\u2019ve done great work in developing schools in Benin and Sudan and other trouble spots, places where educated women were a novelty. But it\u2019s not just education, they\u2019ve been providing safe havens for women against male violence within refugee camps in Kenya and Sri Lanka where they had such brutal suppression of the Tamils. And they\u2019ve been involved in microfinancing, along with other NGOs and banks. Because over the decades they\u2019ve found that loans to women are more effective than loans to men.\nJacinta: Hmmm, I wonder why that would be.\nCanto: Well, some have disputed it, but it might be that because women are generally more collaborative and group-oriented, social pressure between women ensures that they put the loans to better use, repay them more promptly and so on. CARE is also combining microloans with training in health, governance, human rights and such. This raises consciousness on the importance of education and health, and this is indicated in increased household expenditure in these areas. It\u2019s been noted that microfinance-only programs tend to be more abused, often because the women get leaned on by male relatives.\nJacinta: Okay, so I think you\u2019re right, we need to get rid of men. Gene editing, with this new CRISPR Cas-9 technology and further developments, should make it all straightforwardly possible soon enough. In time we\u2019ll be able to edit the genes of embryos to make them all female. Or maybe we\u2019ll keep about 10% of them as males for reproductive purposes, and as fun toys and slaves around the house. Forget the bloody moslem brotherhood, I\u2019m only interested in the moslem sisterhood, and forget mateship, which emerged supposedly out of the \u2018Great\u2019 bloody War, and fuck \u2018we band of brothers\u2019, which came from Shakespeare\u2019s bloody Henry V, the battle of bloody AgitpropCourt, with Harry\u2019s band of bros splattering the Frenchy band of bros for larks and sparks. Yep it\u2019s time.\nCanto: Well thanks for that. We\u2019ll talk again, women willing.\nPosted in consciousness, crime, patriarchy, politics, power, society, solutions, violence, war\nTagged with charity, evolution, gender, patriarchy, politics, violence",

        "raw_content": "Recap of Sam Houston St. and ASU matches\nOn a cold snowy and icey afternoon, 2 clubs traveled a combined 8 hours to Richardson in preparations of a possible match on Saturday. UT Dallas had already closed all fields due to the previous weeks ice, rain and snow, so we moved both the women's match and men's match to Richardson Jr. High School.\nOn a cold Saturday afternoon, Sam Houston State Women showed up in force (11 players) to our 6 and finally 7th player.\n1. Lorraine, 2. Cora, 3. Vic, 4. Alyssa, 5. Rachel, 6. Mel, 7. Yesina\nWhile I personally didn't want the game to go on, but all of the girls wanted to play, and because of that I allowed the games to proceed. Normally, clubs would play the best of three 15 minute matches, but it was decided that we would play one 20 minute match, winner take all.\nThe match began with both clubs searching for some kind of footing to make a move against each other, It was a very well played match, with Sam Houston taking an early lead in the first half, but in the second half, our ladies came alive with Alyssa scoring 2 trys to make it a game.\nWomen of the Match - Alyssa Gelman\nIn all, our ladies have had a great season, growing into adults who have all made several commitments to attend class, some work and those that want to learn how to play rugby, came out to every practice and every game.\nThank you to those ladies and I'm looking forward to next year, working with you all and learning from you.\nThe players from Angelo State showed up at the same time as the Sam Houston Women and when the women's match was over, the men took the field. ASU was expecting a few more players but due to weather conditions in San Angelo a good number of their players couldn't make it. So they took the field with 13 players. Meanwhile, UT Dallas wasn't very much better, seeing that it was a home match for us, but we did have 15 players. So we played 14 against 13 and we had 1 reserve.\n1. Brandon, 2. Daniel, 3. Jonathan, 4. Precious, 5. Manny, 6. Luke, 7. Eric, 8. Jake, 9. Nick Pebworth, 10. Andrew Whiteis, 11. Kashan, 12. Nicky DiCarlo, 13. Liam, 14. Jordan\nReserve: Josh who later came in for Luke.\nThe match was played same way the ladies match went, looking for footing, but it was a little easier, because the women had already broken up a lot of the ice on the field.\nUT Dallas struck first with Nicky DiCarlo intercepting a ASU pass and running it back to score the first try of the day. Then ASU came back to battle up and down the field. They played a 8 man game, considering they had 2 very large props both weighting in about 300 plus pounds. And 3 other players that had to weight about 275, which gave us fits every time one of those players got the ball, but we battled.\nDuring this half, we managed to march the ball down the pitch, with some steady and deliberate rucking to put up another score. Jonathan was the one that punched in our second try of the day, with Nick Pebworth converting. The end of the first half UT Dallas 12, ASU 24.\nThe end of the first half would mark the end of the game, an officer from the Richardson ISD Security Dept. came by and ordered us off the field, like UT Dallas that field was closed, but we didn't know that info. So both clubs joined the ladies at Fuzzy's Taco Shop for some warm food and cold drink.\nMan of the Match - Nicky DiCarlo\nThe last item of business is the Spring Banquet, which is still in the air, but will post that date as soon as it is confirmed. See you all at the banquet.",

        "raw_content": "Vaping Cancer, Heart Disease Risk Overstated By Recent Research\nTwo recent study findings that were released to the media this month are just wild speculation, and possibly intentional misrepresentation, according to analysis by The Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association (CASAA).\nIn an as-yet-to-be-published (or peer reviewed) preliminary study, researchers looked at the saliva of just 5 vapers, testing for the presence of carcinogenic chemicals. Researchers found increased levels of formaldehyde, acrolein and methylglyoxal. They reportedly found \u201cincreased DNA damage\u201d in the mouths of 4 of the participants.\nSenior investigator Silvia Balbo, an assistant professor with the University of Minnesota Masonic Cancer Center, told reporters that, while she agrees that vaping is reasonably considered to be safer compared to combustible cigarettes, she doesn\u2019t believe that being safe by comparison is \u201cgood enough.\u201d\nBalbo admitted that her study doesn\u2019t prove that vaping causes cancer, only that it produces chemicals that damage DNA in ways that can possibly lead to cancer.\n\u201cThis study cannot determine whether e-cigarettes are carcinogenic or are causing a risk for cancer,\u201d she said. Balbo did not elaborate to the extent of the DNA damage, only that it was \u201chigher\u201d than in those who do not vape.\nOf note, Dr. Norman Edelman of the American Lung Association commented on this study: \u201cIt\u2019s quite clear there are chemicals in aerosol people inhale when they vape that are carcinogenic, but whether they\u2019re going to cause cancer and to what degree is something we don\u2019t know.\u201d\n\u201cDr. Balbo may feel that vaping being safe by comparison to combustible cigarettes \u2018isn\u2019t good enough,\u2019 but we strongly disagree,\u201d said Bruce Nye, RN, President of The Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives (CASAA). \u201cHarm reduction is a widely accepted practice, even when the risks are reduced only by a small amount,\u201d he said.\n\u201cSeat belts in cars, bike helmets, \u201csafe\u201d sex using condoms and even clean needles for intravenous drug use are all examples of harm reduction,\u201d Nye explained, \u201cyet none of them reduce risks by more than half. For example, when used correctly, wearing a seat belt reduces the risk of fatal injury to the front seat passenger in a car by only 45 percent, and reduces the risk of moderate-to-critical injury by only 50 percent, yet no one would be silly enough to suggest that seat belts not be worn because they aren\u2019t 100% safe. With the science known today, vaping poses much less than 5% of the risk of smoking combustible cigarettes, but even if it is found to reduce the risks associated with smoking by just 25 percent, that still means potentially saving millions of lives!\u201d\n\u201cAdditionally,\u201d Nye continued, \u201crecent studies have shown that the vast majority of adult vapers are current or former smokers, so a comparison to smoking conventional cigarettes is just plain, good science.\u201d\nIn the second study recently released to the media, senior study author and outspoken anti-vape advocate, Stanton Glantz. PhD, professor of medicine and director of the UCSF Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education, claims to have shown a link between vaping and increased heart attack risk. The study, published Aug. 22, 2018, in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, concluded that vaping doubled the risk of heart attack, while dual use (vaping without having yet quit smoking) increased the risk of having a heart attack five-fold.\nAccording to the UCSF press release, the \u201canalysis involved 69,452 people who were interviewed through National Health Interview Surveys in 2014 and 2016, a cross-sectional study in which in-person interviewers asked participants whether they had ever used e-cigarettes and/or cigarettes, and whether they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had had a heart attack.\u201d However, researchers admitted that \u201cit was not known whether the heart attacks occurred relative to e-cigarette use, and that some of the heart attacks that subjects reported are likely to have occurred before e-cigarettes became available in the U.S.\u201d\n\u201cHere we have a classic chicken or the egg scenario,\u201d explained CASAA\u2019s Nye. \u201cCross-sectional studies only give a snapshot of the time that the questions are asked. Researchers did not focus on heart attacks that happened after beginning the use of vapor products, only asking if the participants \u201cever\u201d had a heart attack. Heart attacks that happened prior to using vapor products are completely irrelevant, yet in this case, those pre-vaping heart attacks are being used to calculate vaping risk. This is an error in temporality that would not be made by a first year student of epidemiology, let alone a distinguished professor on the subject.\u201d\n\u201cAdditionally,\u201d he continued, \u201cthe increased incidence of heart attacks in vapers and dual users compared to never-users makes sense \u2013 if having a heart attack is what incentivized the survey participant to try to quit smoking with vapor products. It\u2019s extremely important to note that order of events matters. If it did not, we could conclude that headaches are caused by aspirin, because aspirin is widely used by people with headaches.\u201d\n\u201cSo, are people having heart attacks because they vape, or \u2013 what I believe is more likely \u2013 are more smokers turning to vaping to quit smoking because they had a heart attack? The fact is, Dr. Glantz and his colleagues are making a fundamental error by claiming the former. I suspect that an anti-vaping bias has a lot to do with their conclusions.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Google\u2019s clearest statement yet on NSA & PRISM: No server access, no back door, no drop box, no free-for-all\nJohn Koetsier, TUNE@johnkoetsier\t June 19, 2013 4:42 PM\nImage Credit: Daniel Proulx\nGoogle chief legal office and senior vice president David Drummond got right to the point.\nAsked in a Q&A session with the Guardian immediately following whistleblower Edward Snowden\u2019s live Q&A, Drummond denied that the NSA has access to Google\u2019s data and servers, as has been extensively alleged via the NSA\u2019s PRISM program.\nI\u2019m not sure I can say this more clearly: we\u2019re not in cahoots with the NSA and there\u2019s is no government program that Google participates in that allows the kind of access that the media originally reported. Note that I say \u201coriginally\u201d because you\u2019ll see that many of those original sources corrected their articles after it became clear that the PRISM slides were not accurate. Now, what does happen is that we get specific requests from the government for user data. We review each of those requests and push back when the request is overly broad or doesn\u2019t follow the correct process. There is no free-for-all, no direct access, no indirect access, no back door, no drop box.\nThis is much, much clearer and more specific than any of the company denials from Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, AOL, Yahoo, and other companies accused of indiscriminately sharing data with the NSA. Those earlier denials seemed strangely similar and seemed to offer big holes via which data sharing could still be taking place.\nThis is a good message to hear from Google, which has seen its users\u2019 confidence shaken significantly with the PRISM accusations.\nWe heard \u201cno direct access to servers\u201d before. We haven\u2019t heard \u201cno indirect access,\u201d and we haven\u2019t heard \u201cno back door,\u201d or \u201cno drop box.\u201d What that means \u2014 assuming Drummond is truthful and in possession of all the facts \u2014 is that PRISM is not the program that we initially thought it was: a program by which Google and thousands of other companies were potentially supplying shadowy government agencies with vast quantities of what was supposed to be private data on American citizens.\nThe message squares with what NSA Director General Keith Alexander told Congress yesterday, saying that NSA surveillance programs were were limited, legal, and necessary for the protection of the U.S.A.\nAnd Drummond reiterated his truthfulness as well as Google\u2019s in response to a Google\u2019 user\u2019s question about whether he was lying:\nWe\u2019re not in the business of lying and we\u2019re absolutely telling the truth about all of this. Our business depends on the trust of our users. And I\u2019m an executive officer of a large publicly traded company, so lying to the public wouldn\u2019t be the greatest career move.\nHardcore conspiracy theorists will have their doubts, of course. And you don\u2019t have to be anywhere near hardcore to have significant concerns and questions about PRISM and other NSA activities and public U.S. companies such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Apple\u2019s involvement with them.\nDrummond talked about Google\u2019s legal attempts to force the government to allow it to reveal the extent of data-sharing that it has been obligated to do. We should all hope that that attempt is successful.\nImage credit: Daniel Proulx/Flickr",

        "raw_content": "At springtime or during high winds we often see increasing numbers of wildlife, especially baby birds, in our vet clinic.\nThis page offers information and advice that will improve the outcome for baby birds and relieve the workload of your local vet and charities at these busy times.\nIf the baby bird is a \"fledgling\" with a few adult feathers, it may still be learning to fly. It is not uncommon to see these birds flapping around on the ground as they develop their flying skills. They will usually still be cared for by the parents, and the process of learning to fly can take up to 2 weeks.\nOnly if the bird appears to be injured, extremely distressed or in danger will it need to be taken to the vet. Otherwise, the best place for this young animal is always with its parents in the natural environment. A bird that has been raised by its own parents will have a much greater chance of survival over one that has been hand raised by humans.\nThe best thing to do is place the baby bird back in the original nest. Then observe from a safe distance to see if the baby bird stays there and if the parents return. (The parent birds will probably not return if you are standing too close to the tree).\nIf you can\u2019t place the baby bird back in the original nest, particularly if it is up quite high, then you can make a nest replica. A variety of containers can be used, for example an empty ice cream container, take away food containers or even a small bucket. Make a few small drainage holes in the bottom in case it rains. Then place a few leaves or soft bark in the bottom as nesting material for warmth and support.\nPlace the replica nest as high up the tree as possible and attach it safely with some rope or cable ties. Ideally the replica nest should be placed in the same tree as the original nest (or very close nearby) to ensure the parents will return for their youngster. Don\u2019t worry; the parents will not reject the baby bird if it has \"human\" smell on it.\nIf the above steps are not possible, or if you think the baby bird is in danger (for example there is a cat around), then you may need the help of experienced wildlife carers. Sydney has two wildlife volunteer groups that you can contact:\nWhilst you are waiting for your wildlife carer, you can protect the baby bird with a few simple methods. Place the baby bird somewhere warm, dark, and quite. A small cardboard box can be a good option for the short term. Remember birds are quite fragile and can die of stress if too many people or children handle them. Do not attempt to feed them or offer them any water.\nIf you have tried the above steps without success or if you think the baby bird may be injured, then please contact us.\nIf the bird is not a native species of bird, it is classed as a pest and would have to be euthanased, as it is illegal to release them back into the wild.\nAll native birds are protected and, unless you have a licence to do so, it is illegal to keep them as pets.",

        "title": "NDIS FAQ | Vision Australia. Blindness and low vision services",
        "raw_content": "Q1. How is the NDIS different to the current system?\nThe current system provides funding to organisations who then provide services to people with disability. The NDIS now gives control of the funding directly to the person with disability, who can then access the services they choose.\nQ2. What is the difference between the NDIS and the NDIA and why is the NDIS called an \u2018insurance\u2019 scheme?\nThe NDIS is the National Disability Insurance Scheme, and the NDIA is the National Disability Insurance Agency that implements the NDIS.\nIt\u2019s an insurance scheme because every Australian contributes to it in a way that enables us to provide for everyone and anyone who is born with or who acquires a disability. This works to help improve whole-of-life outcomes by building skills, capacity and, most importantly, independence.\nQ3. What support is available for someone who is blind or has low vision?\nSupport available under the NDIS is designed to enable you to connect with your community, gain employment and live an ordinary life.\nThe support must relate to your disability and help you achieve your goals and needs. It may include things like: travel (to get to employment or school, or access the community); support around the home (gardening, learning how to cook meals independently); or improved daily activities, which may include training and therapy on orientation and mobility, or occupational therapy. You may also be able to access assistive technology, such as magnifiers, long mobility canes, or CCTVs.\nYou may be entitled to have Support Coordination in your NDIS plan to build your independence. Vision Australia provides limited Support Coordination to NDIS participants in certain locations, and we can support you to understand your NDIS plan.\nQ4. How do people access NDIS?\nIf you already receive support from a State or Territory disability service, you will receive a phone call or an email when you\u2019re able to access the NDIS. Alternatively, feel free to call the NDIA and request access information and an Access Request Form.\nIf you don\u2019t currently receive support, call the NDIS and request an Access Request Form, or speak to a Vision Australia representative who can provide you with additional information and support.\nQ5. What is an NDIS plan?\nAn NDIS Plan sets out the individual support services for a participant in the scheme. It is based on the results of your planning meeting, and should reflect your goals and the support you need to achieve them.\nAfter the planning process is complete, you will be provided with an NDIS plan, which outlines the support and funding available to you for the time of your plan (typically one year). You may use this funding to buy services directly or through the support service you choose.\nQ6. With the individual NDIS planning process, what is goal setting and why is it important?\nWhen you have completed your Access Request Form, a meeting will be scheduled with an NDIA or LAC planner. You can request this to be in person or by phone. In this meeting, you will discuss the support you currently receive, your goals and your needs, and the support you need to meet these goals.\nGoal setting is important because it will determine the types of support included in your plan. For instance, if your goal is to independently travel to your community activities, the planner will work with you to identify the support you need to achieve this. It may mean you receive funding for transport, orientation and mobility, along with some assistive technology to help navigate your way around the community. It\u2019s important to remember that every individual plan will be different, even where goals are similar.\nQ7. How should people get ready for the NDIS?\nFind out when the NDIS is coming to your area (www.ndis.gov.au). There is also an access checklist to see if you\u2019re eligible. Then take some time to think and prepare: feel free to use our planning guide, or talk to one of our NDIS experts for some advice.\nMake sure to think about your goals, what you want to achieve, and what sort of life you want to lead.\nQ8. How is the NDIS rolling out nationally and what happens if I am in an area where the NDIS is not yet available?\nIf you are in an area where the NDIS is not yet available, remember that you may submit an Access Request Form six months prior to the roll out reaching your area. You\u2019ll then be at the top of the queue to access support through the NDIS once you have an approved plan.\nIn the meantime, you can continue to access services from organisations such as Vision Australia.\nVision Australia has answered some common questions on the NDIS below.\nQ. Will existing clients of Vision Australia who are not eligible for NDIS funding still be able to access our support services for free?\nQ. What services and equipment will the NDIS provide?\nQ. What if I do not want NDIS support but still want services from Vision Australia?\nQ. What does the NDIS mean for people over 65 years old with blindness or low vision?\nQ. What is Vision Australia doing for people in the over 65 age group who aren\u2019t eligible for the NDIS?\nQ. Where can I find more information about the NDIS?\nVision Australia will continue to provide services to people who are blind or have low vision free of charge. We are able to provide these services through government funding and generous donations from the Australian public.\nTo find out if you are eligible for Vision Australia services please call us on 1300 84 74 66 or visit our website at www.visionaustralia.org.\nThe NDIS will provide funding for \u2018reasonable and necessary\u2019 support, services and equipment.

        "raw_content": "<The Conversation: How to help the women and girls rescued from Islamic State\nHalabja Day 2016: End the impunity>\nBy Leanne K. Simpson, Newsweek.com, 24.02.2016\nViolence against women, especially in war, is so pervasive around the world it\u2019s often not considered news. But the barbaric treatment of women by the group known as Da\u2019esh or Islamic State (ISIS) has for once managed to attract some specific attention.\nWhen ISIS overran the city of Mosul and much of northern Iraq in June 2014, it abducted more than 5,000 women and girls of religious and ethnic minorities (the vast majority being Yazidi, Turkmen and Christians). They were systematically isolated from their families and many watched other family members being murdered, particularly men and older women.\nWomen often bear the brunt of war, but ISIS is responsible for some of the most egregious treatment of women in recent history, with girls and women effectively becoming weapons of war. These young women and girls (some as young as 12) are being systematically raped and assaulted nearly to the point of death, with many being forced into marriage and religious conversion, sold or given as \u201cgifts\u201d.\nInitially, ISIS and its supporters denied that the women abducted were being sexually exploited. But in an October 2014 issue of its publication Dabiq, the group publicly acknowledged it was keeping sex slaves. Justifying it with a predictably narrow and self-serving interpretation of Islam and Islamic law, it stated it considers these women the \u201cspoils of war.\u201d\nIt\u2019s not uncommon for them to attempt suicide in captivity in a bid to end their suffering, and due to the conservatism of their communities, many who do somehow return home are ostracised. They may even face death at the hands of male family members eager to avenge their family\u2019s loss of morality\u2014a woman\u2019s purity and chastity are linked to a family\u2019s honour. This also contributes to the problem that the actual number of victims is unknown, as many rapes go unreported out of stigma and shame.\nSexual violence and physical abuse is one of ISIS\u2019s key psychological weapons. It has driven thousands of families from the north and west of Iraq, expanding their territory in their wake. Some more cynical observers also argue that the promise of sex slaves, cars and houses is a ploy to attract young men from countries where they have no prospects of marriage or wealth thanks to inequality and unemployment.\nThere is little psychological assistance available for these destitute young women. One organisation that\u2019s stepping in to help is WADI, the Association for Crisis Assistance and Solidarity Development Cooperation. This Iraq-German based nonprofit focuses on women\u2019s rights in the Middle East and is providing psycho-social assistance to the traumatised female survivors of ISIS\u2019s abuse.\nSadly, the current efforts are merely the beginning, and funding for such projects is scarce. Every day more women become victims; mental health is a taboo topic in many Arab countries, and efforts to help sufferers are therefore very poorly resourced. Although there has been an international response, it\u2019s been direly inadequate given the scale of the challenges and needs.\nAnd all the while, even though ISIS has lost some ground in Iraq and Syria, there\u2019s no indication that this horror story will end any time soon.\nLeanne K Simpson, PhD Student, School of Psychology | Institute for the Psychology of Elite Performance, Bangor University.",

        "raw_content": "Kim Kennedy Austin: Industry, Charity, Faith, Hope\nAccenting this first survey exhibition of Austin\u2019s practice is a new body of work produced for the West Vancouver Museum. This work emerges out of Austin\u2019s interest and research into the iron bridges that connect the North Shore not only to other land masses, but to other histories as well.\nThe title of the exhibition is taken from the refrain of Oh Industry, a song performed by Bette Midler in the 1988 film Beaches.\nPresented alongside this new work is a selection of paintings, drawings and needlepoint work produced over the past two decades. The aim is to highlight the broad aesthetic, intellectual and cultural territory that Austin weaves together into a unique and labour-intensive practice. Austin looks at structural systems and emotive aesthetics in the ubiquitous sea of printed matter that is trying to sell us products, religion and lifestyle. Operating on the fringe of the social and economic milieu for which this material is produced, and often finding attraction in things that have just gone out of style or lost their function, Austin re-invests these images and objects with labour and attention to detail. Transforming mechanically reproduced forms into uniquely handmade objects, Austin points us back to the creative impulse and imagination that likely inspired their original production.\nIn this exhibition, the mechanical language of industry is asked to co-exist with the spiralling and heart-shaped sentimentality of popular culture in the form of text-based drawings, watercolours and needlepoint cross-stitching. Austin activates an artistic position that can neither be called dry conceptualism nor wet expressionism, as it folds references to music, literature, industry, television and craft into its own structure and sensibility. Here we find a dialogue between instinct and intellect that ultimately visualizes a labour of love.\nThe exhibition is guest curated by Patrik Andersson and is accompanied by a text-based response written by the writer, poet and archivist Larissa Beringer.\nThe artist and curator dedicate this exhibition to their friend and long-time supporter of the arts, Jack Adelaar.",

        "title": "Adult Eating Disorders Happen More Than You think",
        "raw_content": "Adult Eating Disorders Happen More Than You Think\nWhen you think of someone fighting anorexia or bulimia, what usually comes to mind is a teenage girl looking at fashion magazines and wishing that she looked just like the models within the magazine\u2019s pages. The truth is that adult eating disorders are much more prevalent than most people think.\nUnfortunately, because people have such a stereotype of what a person with an eating disorder should look like, other people who are deeply suffering take the hit because no one takes them seriously. People can develop eating disorder later in life, no matter what kind of situation they are in or how old they are. It is important to know how to recognize the signs in yourself or a loved one so that you can stop the issue in its tracks before it gets out of hand.\nThe Facts on Adult Eating Disorders\nIt is true that many young people, especially women, suffer from eating disorders. However, it is estimated that about \u2153 of inpatient admissions for eating disorders were over the age of 30. If you think about it, how many people do you know at this point who are on some kind of diet and constantly complain about their figure, even when they have no need to. This alone is a precursor to an eating disorder, which can lead to severe symptoms and significant life changes.\nBody image has a lot to do with adult eating disorders. As people age, both men and women experience a slowing down metabolism and more lethargy. Both things can cause you to gain weight. Couple that with the stressors from everyday life, like kids, marriage, work, and financial issues. This can lead to anxiety and depression, which are both closely associated with eating disorders. Many of these people have body image dissatisfaction, especially when they compare themselves to what they looked like when they were younger, or what young people around them look like.\nAccording to the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA), 60% of adult women engage in some type of weight control, 40% restrain what they eat, 40% overeat, and 90% worry about their weight. These statistics show that very few adult women are actually ok with their body or have a healthy relationship with food.\nSomeone with an adult eating disorder may be less likely to reach out for help because they are ashamed of their disorder, or in denial that it even exists. Since eating disorders are often associated with teenagers, adults suffering from them might feel like its an immature or nonexistent problem, something that they should be able to \u201cfix\u201d themselves.\nThere are many medical issues associated with adult eating disorders, many of which are similar to the medical issues experienced by younger people. In some cases, the issues are exaggerated, like increasing menopausal symptoms, and hastening neuromuscular disease. Drinking alcohol when you have an adult eating disorder great increases the risk of death from a medical issue or suicide. This is not something to take lightly.\nGetting Help For Adult Eating Disorders\nNo matter who you are, in what phase of life, it is always important to take good care of yourself. If you are suffering from an adult eating disorder, getting help is the first and best thing you can do. There is a big chance that your disorder comes from somewhere else, like a mood disorder or history of drug or alcohol abuse. It also may not. Whatever the case may be, we are here to help guide you through your recovery in a non-judgemental environment. Get help before your eating disorder gets out of control, and you will quickly be on your way to a happier, healthier life.",

        "raw_content": "MS-13 Presence Increasing in Texas\nAt the Texas border with Mexico, there has been a spike in apprehensions involving the ultra-violent Central American cartel, Newsradio 1200 WOAI reports.\n\"Stunningly, and disturbingly, there's been an increase of more than 200 percent of MS-13 coming across the border,\" Texas Governor Greg Abbott said during a visit to National Guard troops at Weslaco, Texas on April 12.\nSince then, reports from Customs Border Protection continue to roll in. The latest was July 10th.\n\"In two different incidents, Falfurrias agents arrested 3 Salvadoran nationals. All of the subjects\u2019 records revealed that they are active members of the Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) gang,\" a press release reads.\nOn July 5th, Weslaco agents caught a Salvadoran national who made a claim of fear to being deported back to his native country. During processing, it was confirmed the man is was a member of the MS-13 gang.\nOn July 7th, Kingsville agents arrested a Salvadoran national near Sarita, Texas. Record checks confirmed that he was an MS-13 gang member.\nBut cartel expert Dr. Guadalupe Correa, at George Mason University's School of Policy and Government, warns against jumping to conclusions.\nShe says Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, is not invading Texas.\n\"The operations of MS-13 in United States are very different from MS-13 in Central America,\" she says.\nCorrea, who is researching the gang, says that in El Salvador, MS-13 operates on a different level because of a corrupt government. Their brutal style of kidnappings, murder and forced payments go unchecked.\nHere, she says MS-13 is merely a street gang that makes little profits from selling drugs on the streets. She says many of the MS-13 in America come here with families and, once here, fall in with other El Salvadorians. Others come here escaping the gang and, with forced membership, would explain why border crossers with tattoos are unfairly stereotyped.\nThis year, the numbers of MS-13 arrests at the border are small. There were about 123 cases out of the more than 66,000 apprehensions in that sector.\nNationwide, the Border Patrol says 181 of its arrests were MS-13 gang members during a six-month period.\nAnd, while they are crossing the border in Texas, the street gang has the most power on the east coast. Earlier this month in Baltimore, 24-alleged gang members were racketeering, murder and money laundering conspiracies.\n\u201cWe will not allow MS-13 and its members or their affiliates to bring their nefarious and deadly activities into our neighborhoods,\u201d said Acting Special Agent in Charge Cardell T. Morant. \u201cI am proud of the dedicated agents who have duly executed their duties in our collective pursuit of law, order and justice.\u201d\nPHOTO' BORDER PATROL",

        "title": "When a Bell Rings | by Lia Dugal | Women For One",
        "raw_content": "When a Bell Rings\nA few years back, maybe more, I walked into a bar one night after a play I was acting in at a local community theatre. I walked into that bar with several friends from the show and ran into a guy I had known loosely through the theatre community. We weren\u2019t close friends then and hadn\u2019t seen much of each other in years, as he had just arrived back in the area.\nBut I assume there was some sort of kindred connection between us because we were drawn to each other. We found ourselves talking to each other, separate from the rest. He was telling me all about his adventures during his travels, and then\u2026something happened.\nA bell rang. Not like a literal bell or anything, but more like a shock wave that vibrated through my body and rang like a loud alerting alarm in my mind.\nWhat did I do with this ringing? I ran. I courteously said my good-byes and left.\nA few weeks ago, I had just kicked out my abusive ex-husband. I was wounded, shocked, and unsure of this world I was re-entering (the world at large, not just that of dating). Everything was new, unreal, scary. I wasn\u2019t open to or looking for love or relationships. Because of fear, I had closed my heart off to any sort of connection that might lead down the path of a real heartfelt connection.\nI shut it off and went on with my life. I pushed the whole experience far back into my unconscious, seemingly forgetting about the whole thing. Or so I thought.\nSee, the bell kept ringing and ringing and ringing. Whenever I would run into this man around town, I would hear that alarm going off. True to form, I\u2019d do my best to silence it.\nI had a screenplay I had written that kept kicking itself around and around in my head. I took a leap of faith and invited friends to help me film it, to put it on YouTube, and then who knows what else? I had never done anything like this before, although at the time, I\u2019d been in a few film projects of my friends, mostly as an extra or featured player.\nI asked this man to be a part of it. And then, there it was.\nThe first day of filming, it was the two of us alone and the bell rang and rang. The tension hung between us, weighting the very air we breathed. It was sexual tension mingled with the longing for love.\nThat little film project went forth into the world and continued to grow, with more and more people coming on board to help the dream come alive.\nBut, in the early days of the project, it was this man who helped birth it into the world as much as myself and my creative inspiration.\nIt took me nearly three years to finally surrender to the universe and allow this man into my life. I wish I could say that he swept me into his arms with devotion and promises of love eternal. No, that didn\u2019t happen. But he did pledge his eternal loyalty to me both on and off screen. He was crucial in helping and encouraging me to pursue another angle of my career, catapulting me into the avenue of becoming a film producer, a profession in which I am thriving. I\u2019ve learned that that is even better and more special than romantic love eternal.\nWhat have I learned? The universe had a special purpose for bringing this man and me together. No matter what, we\u2019re kindred spirits, a unique relationship that is not always discovered in our fast-paced, technologically driven society. And, that one night in a bar, the universe was instructing and showing me that this man was going to be vastly important in my life, if I only let him.\nFrom that experience and more, I\u2019ve learned that the times I\u2019ve been the most successful are the times I\u2019ve kept my heart open, receptive to the ring. The times I\u2019ve listened and been led. When a bell rings, I let a bell be a bell.\nSo, in your life, when you hear that bell or alarm telling you to wake up, pay attention, listen, and let it ring.\nI\u2019m listening now.\nAbout the Author | Lia Rose Dugal\nLia Dugal is an actress, model, writer, and producer living in Southern Oregon with her boyfriend and two cats.

        "raw_content": "worcester.ma (https://worcester.ma/2015/12/gino-waits-for-worcester-schools/)\nSpecial needs student still waits for Worcester schools to follow through\nNearly a year later and following several attempts at intervention, a Worcester student with special needs is still waiting for in-home services offered to him and his mother back in January through his state-mandated Individualized Education Program.\nThe Sun first chronicled the troubles of 15-year-old Eugene \u201cGino\u201d Berthiaume, who attends the Marie Philip Elementary School at The Learning Center for Deaf Children in Framingham, on Nov. 22. He was diagnosed at birth with congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) and suffers from bilateral hearing loss, developmental delays, epilepsy and cerebral palsy. Gino sometimes has aggressive tendencies and lacks self-care skills.\nGino Berthiaume needs help from the Worcester Public School system that his mother says is not being provided.\nThe Worcester Public Schools\u2019 special education department added services from an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapist for 1.5 hours a day, five days a week to Gino\u2019s IEP reevaluation on Jan. 30. Services from the ABA therapist were scheduled for one full year.\nWPS and Gino\u2019s mother, Kelly Rawson were contacted by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) on Dec. 2 in a letter to former Superintendent Melinda J. Boone, and were told to report on the complaints regarding the apparent noncompliance of Gino\u2019s IEP.\nSince Nov. 30 was Boone\u2019s last day with WPS, the matter would now be the responsibility of interim Superintendent Marco C. Rodrigues.\nIn an email to the Sun, Rodrigues said, \u201cWe cannot comment on student matters that are identifiable. It would be a violation of FERPA [Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act] regulations.\u201d\nThe letter from the state education department was also addressed to WPS Manager of Special Education & Intervention Services Kay Seale, and Assistant Director of Special Education Kathleen Desmarais.\nAlthough the state education department conducted its own investigation into the matter, the school department had until Dec. 16 to submit a report to state officials and Rawson.\nThe state requested \u201cproposals for corrective action\u201d or details of any corrective action that had already taken place. However, according to Rawson, as of Friday, Dec. 18, no such report was submitted to her.\n[Update (Dec. 20, 7:30 a.m.): Desmarais did in fact submit an emailed response to Rawson\u2019s complaints late Friday, Dec. 18, a copy of which was forwarded to the Sun late Saturday, after our initial posting deadline.]\nIn the schools\u2019 response to Rawson\u2019s complaint, officials \u201cacknowledge noncompliance\u201d with the timely implementation of the IEP. The report also states that the school has been unable to find an ABA therapist that is fluent in American sign language and fits the proposed schedule.\nA recent psychological evaluation done by psychologist and researcher Amy Szarkowski of Boston Children\u2019s Hospital was supposed to be sent via mail to Gino\u2019s primary care physician; the Marie Philip School; the Massachusetts Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing; medical professionals at UMass Medical Center; Rawson; and the Worcester Public School District on Nov. 13.\nRawson said, \u201cI requested the evaluation from Children\u2019s Hospital because I didn\u2019t feel the evaluation done by the school department was appropriate. I felt the method of testing and the person conducting the test wasn\u2019t qualified to meet Gino\u2019s needs.\u201d\nRawson received Gino\u2019s evaluation on Nov. 13. According to Rawson, the Marie Philip School received the evaluation around the same time.\nTerri Pancare, a child specialist with the MA Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, also received her copy around Nov. 13.\nThe evaluation was shared with the Sun on Nov. 19.\nWorcester Public Schools, his primary care physician and his neurologist didn\u2019t receive a copy of his evaluation when Rawson and others did. It further held up any discussion regarding Gino\u2019s IEP requirements.\nAccording to an email to Rawson from Kelly O\u2019Donnell, Worcester Public Schools\u2019 special education IEP Evaluation Team chairperson, WPS didn\u2019t receive Gino\u2019s evaluation in the mail, and only received it via fax on Dec. 2 after a request from Rawson.\n\u201cThe time to address a student\u2019s IEP by the school department is when an IEP is being prepared. It\u2019s a day late and a dollar short for the school system to be addressing those issues after an IEP has been drafted.\u201d \u2014 School Committee member Brian O\u2019Connell\nAccording to the Children\u2019s Law Center of Massachusetts, \u201cWithin 10 school days from the time the school district receives the report of the independent evaluation, the Team shall reconvene and consider the evaluation and whether a new or amended IEP is appropriate. If district pays for some or all of the evaluation, the results must be shared with the school.\u201d\nO\u2019Donnell emailed Rawson and a representative from Marie Philip School on Dec. 4. O\u2019Donnell asked to schedule a meeting for 1 p.m. on Dec. 14, eight school days from when the district received the evaluation.\nUltimately, O\u2019Donnell and the representatives from Marie Philip School could not attend the meeting.\nHowever, O\u2019Donnell did schedule a meeting for Friday, Jan. 8, 2016, nine school days from a scheduled Dec. 14 meeting, at Gino\u2019s annual independent evaluation.\n\u201cThe time to address a student\u2019s IEP by the school department is when an IEP is being prepared,\u201d School Committee member Brian O\u2019Connell said. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t make sense for an IEP to be prepared and then put into effect that the school system deems financially impractical.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s a day late and a dollar short for the school system to be addressing those issues after an IEP has been drafted,\u201d O\u2019Connell said.\nAccording to the state education department\u2019s problem-resolution system, within 60 calendar days from the date the complaint is received \u2014 Nov. 30, in this case \u2014 the department will determine whether Worcester has complied with the law.\nIf Worcester is found to be in noncompliance, the state will tell the district \u201cwhat it must do to correct the noncompliance,\u201d according to the problem-resolution system.

        "raw_content": "The clash between the two masters had long since passed, but the cry of the earth still hadn't stopped.\nThe great magic, Abraxas, and the deadly sword technique, World Break...\nThe clash of these forces caused the terrain to change, creating a tremendous crater. It wouldn't be hard to believe that a meteorite had fallen here. A dark cloud of dust and smoke covered the ground, which had melted from the enormous heat and looked like black tar.\nThere was a shadow moving inside the pit.\n\"Cough!\" Blood rose in his throat and emerged from his mouth. The pain wasn't just in his bones, but in his entire flesh. Was it because he was too close to the epicenter? No, the exterior damage wasn't that great. Then it was reasonable to assume that this pain came from within him.\n'A little... No, it is quite difficult.' Theodore looked inside himself as he tried to maintain his stumbling body.\nHis seven circles which normally spun smoothly were creaking and in discord with each other. This was Rebound, the cost of using magic which didn't fit into the circles. Abraxas was a great magic that far exceeded the standard of seven circles.\nIt was much stronger than when he had collided with Hyde, so it was harder to cope. Abraxas was a magic he could only try after completing the 8th circle. That had been a reckless move, but it couldn't be helped since this was the only method he had thought of.\nStill, he won, so it wasn't the wrong choice.\n\"This is absurd. How long will it take to get out of here?\"\nAs his dizziness calmed down, Theodore looked around. The land had sunk, and he was surrounded on all sides by dark walls. The cloud of dust had become a shield which blocked the sunlight, and shadows loomed on the ground.\n\"My body is a mess, and it will take several months to recover.\"\nIt was nothing compared to his insides, but part of his skin and muscles were torn from the explosion. Even now, his wounds were still bleeding despite using recovery magic. If he released his tension, he might lose consciousness on the spot.\nHowever, Theodore couldn't faint yet. It was still too risky until he confirmed the death of his enemy, Pan Helliones. Fortunately, Pan Helliones was nearby. \"...Co-me.\"\n\"......\" Theodore might be injured, but it was nothing compared to Pan Helliones' state.\nA sword master's body was closer to an adamantium golem than a human, and they could freely control their weight. They were monsters that could survive an enemy's magic with just their pure aura defense.\nNevertheless, Pan Helliones' current appearance was terrible.\nHis lower body didn't exist, and his right arm was torn, leaving only the part from the elbow up. The greatsword in his left hand was shattered like shards of sugar candy, and there wasn't anything left of the armor which had been made by the emperor's master craftsman.\nHelliones' skin had been hit by enormous heat and was distorted by burns, while the vitreous of his eyes was flowing down.\n\"Great, ha...h,\" Pan Helliones gasped for breath as he spoke words of praise, \"My power... crushed... in fro...nt. This... qua...lity, I don't know...\"\n\"What do you mean by that?\" Theodore clicked his tongue. \"Are you saying that you can't acknowledge a young man? Didn't you get smashed by my technique?\"\n\"T-That...\"\n\"No, that's okay. There is no point asking you since you are having trouble breathing.\"\nIt wasn't an exaggeration. Pan Helliones' life was literally at stake. He was only a few moments away from death, so it wouldn't be strange if he stopped breathing. Therefore, Theodore asked about something that he hadn't been able to erase from his mind throughout the fight. \"Why did you lie?\"\n\"U-Umm?\"\n\"About Randolph's sister, Rebecca.\"\nAt first, Theodore hadn't known. The tension that boiled during their battle had covered up his eyes. Funnily enough, he had figured it out while preparing Abraxas. His insight had been supplemented by the two divinities, and he figured out then that Pan Helliones wasn't the type of person who would do such a thing.\n\"Senses, good.\" However, it stirred the last bit of life inside the dying man. In the East, it was a phenomenon called dying flash, a last moment of lucidity before death.\nPan Helliones' breathing was briefly restored, and he spoke calmly without any shaking. He looked up at the distant sky with blurred eyes and muttered quietly, \"Rebecca is a brilliant disciple. It is a shame to kill her because of such a thing. The authenticity of the statement didn't matter, as long as Sir Clovis departed.\"\n\"You always thought about a one-on-one fight?\"\n\"Correct. It was true that I made this place to kill you. As a result, I was defeated and you won-\" Pan Helliones' words suddenly stopped, but it wasn't over yet. He hesitated for a moment before barely opening his mouth, \"And because I can't see the future of the empire.\"\n\"The future?\" Theodore asked reflexively. \"What do you mean?\"\n\"...Time is up.\" Pan Helliones didn't explain as he changed the subject. \"I am a person who gives my sword and life to the empire, and this is what I can teach the winner. Next time, you should recognize your own power.\"\n\"Why are you saying this?\"\n\"Think of it as a final grudge. It was a good fight, but... the taste of defeat is bitter. In the end, I don't want to lose to someone too weak.\"\nStrength was gradually escaping from his body, and the time he had to speak with Theodore was over. It was the last will of a dying person, so Theodore couldn't help feeling strange hearing it.\nPan Helliones' breathing gradually ceased, and his heart stopped beating. Shortly afterward, Theodore recognized the moment when Pan Helliones' soul escaped his body. The empire's 4th Sword had died.\n'...He couldn't see the future of the empire?' Theodore didn't bask in the glow of victory as he pondered on the words. It was a pessimistic comment coming from one of the empire's Seven Swords.\nWas something going on inside Andras? It would be nice if there were more clues, but even the White Tower spies found it hard to penetrate into the deepest part of the Andras Empire. It wasn't something Theodore could investigate alone.\n\"Ugh, is it hurting more because I released my tension...?\"\nHis body throbbed as the forgotten pain resurfaced. He hurriedly drank a potion from his inventory, but he couldn't reverse the burden on his circles and mind. It was a wound which couldn't be healed.\nTheodore thought that he needed to avoid fighting for the time being. There were no people in the area.\n'Indeed, it wouldn't be easy to approach this horrible scene.'\nA person who could approach probably wouldn't be ordinary. Theodore thought so as he sat on the rocks around the crater. He was now completely at his limits. His head hurt as all his power drained out of him.\nAs his vision darkened, he saw a man and woman with blonde hair approaching him.\n\"......!...!\"\n\".........!\"\n'Then I'll ask you to clear this up, Randolph.'\nThe battle of Babarino Plains ended exactly half a day after it had started. It was a fairly short period of time for the largest battle in the civil war, but the scale of the groups going against each other was the greatest.\nThe result of the battle was naturally Prince Elsid's victory. The crusader was suppressed, and Marquis Fergana was unable to fight anymore.\nDuke Cornwall quickly fled once the tables turned.\n\"Catch Duke Cornwall and the other leaders! Arrest the soldiers and send the result of this battle to every estate in this country!\"\nThe news spread faster than a person traveling by horse. Elsid's victory spread quickly through the Soldun Kingdom and lowered Duke Cornwall's position, causing the nobles' heads to start turning frantically.\nThe duke had lost his 50,000 troops, so there was no longer a chance of victory for him. In other words, it was confirmed that this was Prince Elsid's victory. The small nobles watching the battle were forced to start moving, and they could only think of one method to get on the prince's good side.\n\"There is no future for the nobles faction. Let's capture Duke Cornwall for Prince Elsid.\"\n\"The Cornwall Duchy still has 10,000 troops remaining...\"\n\"Isn't it okay if we capture him before he gets there?\"\n\"Prepare an encirclement. Do it instantly.\"\nYesterday's enemy was today's friend, and today's friend might become tomorrow's enemy. Duke Cornwall reigned at the peak, and he was now branded as the public enemy. In fact, many people felt joyous at his downfall.\nThe seven small nobles within the influence of the Cornwall Duchy moved their troops and conducted an airtight perimeter around it. It only took a week for the rebel leader, Duke Cornwall, to be sent to the capital. Perhaps it would have been better for him to have died on the battlefield.\nAdditionally, Marquis Fergana was captured in his mansion without any resistance, and once the other nobles heard that Duke Cornwall had been captured, they surrendered themselves.\nIt was the moment when the so-called 'Elsid's Civil War' ended. However, there weren't many people who knew the hurdles which Meltor had faced during this brief war. It was a much tougher battle than the conflict between the crown prince and duke.\nThe fact that Theodore Miller had won against one of the empire's Seven Swords...\nIt took time for the hidden history to be revealed.",

I will let yall know when that is\nPosted Dec 23, 18 \u00b7 Last edited Dec 24, 18 by MommaKatie\nMe and Lario have discussed the situation about the date and time for the rescheduling of the party and well, here is our answer:\nTime: 7pm Central Standard Time (Please arrive an hour or 30 minutes early to get the necessary things for the party)\nWhere: Go to my towns 3rd outpost(PrideLands)and follow the road down. Please read the signs there before you go down to the party areas.\nAnd if you want more information about the details, please read the previous comments above.\nHopefully, with this date and time, we can have more people show up. I myself ain't blaming anyone for not showing up because we all have things to deal with and some situations are unavoidable. And another thing as well, it was probably silly to host it a day before Christmas, but like I said in previous comments, this is our first time hosting an event and we didn't know what would be an appropriate time and date, so we just winged it. Now, I think that we have something more concrete and secure.\nAgain, I hope you all can make it to the party and have fun!\nFor anyone who wants a reminder about the order of events, here they are:\n3. Christmas PvP\n4. Archery Match\n5. Opening and Exchanging Gifts\n6. Fireworks Show (this will be hosted on Larios 1st plot on Plots subserver)\nIf towny is down on this day and at that time, the whole party will be on the Plots subserver.\nThe party was a big success! Thank you to the people that showed up and participated in the festivities. There were some technicalities, but overall performance was great. We did every event except for 1: Fireworks Show!!! This event will be held on Plots subserver on Dec 30th, 2018 and the time... We will host it whenever there is a significant amount of people on Towny (which will likely be in the evening). Everyone, please come and enjoy the grand finale of the End Of The Year party!!!!!",

        "title": "Barbara Bush, Republican matriarch and former first lady, dies at 92",
        "raw_content": "Barbara Bush, Republican matriarch and former first lady, dies at 92\nBarbara Bush, the matriarch of a Republican political dynasty and a first lady who elevated the cause of literacy, died Tuesday, a family spokesman said. She was 92.\nOnly the second woman in American history to have had a husband and a son elected President (Abigail Adams was the first), Bush was seen as a plainspoken public figure who was instantly recognizable with her signature white hair and pearl necklaces and earrings.\nShe became a major political figure as her husband, George H.W. Bush, rose to become vice president and president. After they left the White House, she was a potent spokeswoman for two of her sons -- George W. and Jeb -- as they campaigned for office.\nThe mother of six children -- one of whom, a daughter, Robin, died as a child from leukemia -- Barbara Bush raised her fast-growing family in the 1950s and '60s amid the post-war boom of Texas and the whirl of politics that consumed her husband.\nShe was at his side during his nearly 30-year political career. He was a US representative for Texas, UN ambassador, Republican Party chairman, ambassador to China and CIA director. He then became Ronald Reagan's vice president for two terms and won election to the White House in 1988. He left office in 1993 after losing a re-election bid to Bill Clinton.\nQuick-witted with a sharp tongue, the feisty Barbara Bush was a fierce defender of her husband and an astute adviser.\nAs first lady, her principal persona as a devoted wife and mother contrasted in many ways with her peer and predecessor, Nancy Reagan, and her younger successor, Hillary Clinton, both of whom were seen as more intimately involved in their husbands' presidencies.\nStill, Barbara Bush promoted women's rights, and her strong personal views sometimes surfaced publicly and raised eyebrows -- especially when they clashed with Republican Party politics. For instance, she once said as her husband ran for president that abortion should not be politicized.\nShe also was not shy about the possibility of a female president, disarming a Wellesley College audience at a 1990 appearance protested by some on campus who questioned her credentials to address female graduates aiming for the workplace.\n\"Somewhere out in this audience may even be someone who will one day follow my footsteps and preside over the White House as the president's spouse.\n\"I wish him well,\" she said.\nBarbara Pierce was born June 8, 1925, in New York and raised in the upscale town of Rye. She attended a prestigious boarding school in South Carolina, where she met her future husband at a school dance when she was only 16 and he was a year older. A year and a half and countless love letters later, the two were engaged just before George Bush enlisted in the Navy and went off to fight in World War II.\nBush, who was the youngest fighter pilot in the Navy at the time, would return home a war hero, after being shot down by the Japanese. He had flown 58 combat missions and received the Distinguished Flying Cross for bravery. By that time, Barbara had dropped out of Smith College and the pair were married in January 1945.\nThey raised their family mainly in Texas, where George H.W. Bush, the son of a US senator, was in the oil business and later entered politics.\nBarbara Bush's dedication to keeping order at home earned her the nickname \"the enforcer.\"\n\"We were rambunctious a lot, pretty independent-minded kids, and, you know, she had her hands. Dad, of course, was available, but he was a busy guy. And he was on the road a lot in his businesses and obviously on the road a lot when he was campaigning. And so Mother was there to maintain order and discipline. She was the sergeant,\" George W. Bush told CNN in 2016.\nWith her husband as vice president in the 1980s, Bush adopted literacy as a cause, raising awareness and eventually launching the nonprofit Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy. After George H.W. Bush's presidency, he and Barbara raised more than $1 billion for literacy and cancer charities.\n\"I chose literacy because I honestly believe that if more people could read, write, and comprehend, we would be that much closer to solving so many of the problems that plague our nation and our society,\" she said.\nA writer, her books include an autobiography and one about post-White House life. Her children's book about their dog, Millie, and her puppies written during her White House years was, as were her other books, a bestseller.\nIn 2001, when George W. Bush took office, Barbara Bush became the only woman in American history to live to see her husband and son elected president.\nShe campaigned for son George W. and fiercely defended him from critics after he became president.\nAsked in a 2013 interview about the prospect that her younger son, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, might mount a White House campaign in 2016, Bush quipped in her dry fashion, \"We've had enough Bushes.\"\nBut when Jeb decided to run, she changed her mind and campaigned for him, appearing in a video for Jeb Bush's ultimately unsuccessful campaign, saying, \"I think he'll be a great president.\"\nShe also was outspoken about Donald Trump. In one of her last interviews, the former first lady said in early 2016 she was \"sick\" of Trump, who belittled her son repeatedly during the 2016 GOP primary campaign, adding that she doesn't \"understand why people are for him.\"\n\"I'm a woman,\" she added. \"I'm not crazy about what he says about women.\"\nMost recently, Bush published a note in the spring edition of Smith College's alumnae magazine, where she declared: \"I am still old and still in love with the man I married 72 years ago.\"\nThe college awarded Bush an honorary degree in 1989.\nBush battled health problems for much of her later life. She was diagnosed in 1988 with Graves' disease, an autoimmune disease that commonly affects the thyroid. She had open-heart surgery in 2009 and in 2008 underwent surgery for a perforated ulcer.\nIn her final years, she was diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, better known as COPD, as well as congestive heart failure. But, along with her husband, she kept an active public schedule, raising money for charity.\nBush is survived by her husband, George H.W.; sons George W., Neil, Marvin and Jeb; daughter, Dorothy Bush Koch; and 17 grandchildren.",

        "raw_content": "Getting around in Austria\nThe Austrians are known to be a car-loving nation. As a result, Austria boasts an excellent road network. However, almost all of the bigger cities suffer from severe parking availability problems. Spaces are scarce and prohibitively expensive. If you do find a space, the time you are allowed to park for is usually around 90 minutes in central districts. One way streets and traffic jams also take enjoyment out of the journey.\nIf you do decide to drive your own car here to Austria you will need to purchase a Vignette which is a form of toll that allows you to drive on Austria's motorways. These vignettes can be purchased at gas stations, border crossings etc.\nDrivers in Austria are also required to carry safety warning equipment, namely a reflective warning triangle to place on the road in the event of an accident, a first aid kit and a reflective vest. Failure to carry these items in your car will leave you liable to a fine.\nBest addresses for car rental in Austria!\nThe public transport system in Austria is excellent. Austria's rail network is comfortable, reliable and fast. The main rail website offers excellent information on timetables, services and discounts. The quality of service offered by the rail network makes it far more appealing than bus links.\nCities such as Bratislava, Budapest, Prague, Munich, Venice are all are regularly served from main stations. For the more adventurous there is also the possibility to travel further a field to destinations such as Warsaw, Berlin, Kiev etc.\nAll of Austria's major cities including Linz, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Graz and Klagenfurt and Vienna have their own international airports. Austrian Airlines, Austria's national carrier, serves all of the above cities and connects Austria with many international destinations. There are now a range of low cost carriers which connect Vienna, Linz and Bratislava to a number of European destinations e.g. AirBerlin, FlyNiki, Ryanair, Sky Europe and German Wings.\nMost large cities and towns feature some form of public transport, including underground systems, buses, tramlines and suburban railways which means getting around without a car is generally not a problem.\nMany Austrian cities and towns encourage cyclists through designated cycle lanes. There are many beautifully tended cycling routes throughout the country esp. in areas of natural beauty such as along the Danube river.",

After he served, Loran wanted to find a role where he could apply his IT skills as well as his ability to act quickly under pressure.\nEvan served as an infantry officer in the US Army for four years. After that, he was a stay-at-home dad while his wife was in the military. When his wife completed her service, Evan needed help finding a job. He needed to show employers how the qualities that served him well in the military would make him a great asset to any company.\nClarissa served in the US Air Force for seven years. After her service, she and her husband wanted to relocate back to San Antonio from California. She was interested in returning to the workforce and was looking for something different that did not require a degree. She heard about Onward to Opportunity from her husband.\nSkills Built/Support Received:\nLoran, Evan and Clarissa participated in IVMF\u2019s Onward to Opportunity, a program that delivers comprehensive training, certification and transitional employment support to military personnel and their spouses who have already transitioned and may be seeking new or better employment.

While he was lucky to have a job, life was still difficult, so he entered his name in the US green card lottery. Upon winning, Sujan joined his uncle in Chicago \u2014 but he struggled to find work in his field, and took a job at a donut shop to make ends meet.\nDetermined to get back on his career path, Sujan began asking for feedback on his resume from regular customers at the donut shop. It was a chance encounter during a job interview, however, that connected him with Upwardly Global. The recruiter recognized Sujan was overqualified for the role and suggested he participate in Upwardly Global\u2019s training. After a few months, Sujan participated in a mock interview, where due to similar skill sets, he was paired with a volunteer from the Accenture Broadcast team who told him about an open position.\nSujan is now a senior analyst with Accenture Broadcast. In addition to supporting webcasts connecting Accenture people around the globe, he also works on client-facing projects. Outside the office, he is sought out for career advice in his largely immigrant neighborhood. Sujan enjoys exploring the US and hopes to travel with work as his career grows.\nMore about Accenture & Upwardly Global:\nIn the United States, Upwardly Global helps eliminate employment barriers and integrates skilled immigrants into the professional workforce. To help this talent pool better integrate into the US economy, Accenture helped Upwardly Global build its online job training platform, which equips jobseekers anywhere in the US with acculturation, job search and technical skills. Through fiscal 2016, approximately 4,400 job seekers have used the online training created by Accenture, of whom nearly 2,000 have secured professional positions. To date, Accenture has hired 19 Upwardly Global alumni.\n\" Upwardly Global gave me everything I needed to build my career in the United States.\"\nMICHELLE, UK\nAs a young mom, Michelle was stretched thin between responsibilities at home, work and school. A learning disability made it difficult for her to keep up, yet she still tried her best to succeed in her chosen field, technology. However, when a car accident made it financially impossible to continue her education, Michelle felt hopeless.\nWithout skills or a degree, Michelle struggled to find employment, but by working with a job placement agency, she was connected to Movement to Work, which offer young people access to high quality digital training, work experience and a path to entry level jobs.

After she completed her training, she remained in the Active Reserves. It was difficult to juggle her many responsibilities, including raising her daughter, military service, work and school. Julia sometimes had to put off school to find balance with her family. During a period of time when she was both unemployed and out of school, she learned about IVMF\u2019s Veterans Accelerated Career Transformation Services (ACTS) program in an email from Wake Technical Community College and was immediately interested. In fact, she was among the first to inquire about and be interviewed for this program.\nIn the Air Force, Julia received specialized training to work in flight medicine. However, since there are different procedures for patients in the air and on the ground, she required additional training to make her experiences as a flight medic applicable to the civilian workforce. IVMF\u2019s funding enabled Julia to complete the basic Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certification bridge course through the ACTS Program for Veterans at Wake Technical Community College. This funding covered everything\u2014tuition, books, travel costs and even childcare vouchers. Not having to worry about costs associated with school and childcare for her four-year old daughter made it possible for Julia to go back to school and complete her EMT certification.\nJulia is now employed at a local hospital and in a much better financial position. While her EMT certification is not required for the job, this expertise helped distinguish her from other candidates\u2014and she believes helped her receive the opportunity. Julia remains in the military, serving one weekend a month, and recently began classes in Wake Technical Community College\u2019s paramedics program. Long term, Julia would love to stay in medicine. Once done with the paramedics program, she is considering completing her nursing degree or even becoming a nurse practitioner or physician\u2019s assistant.\nWe are committed to hiring 5,000 U.S. veterans and military spouses by 2020. In addition, we will support the IVMF at Syracuse University through 2017 to train approximately 3,000 veterans, with more than 1,000 expected to find a job.

Our funding and pro bono consulting support of more than $1.4 million since 2011 is also enabling IVMF to build capabilities by piloting a coordinated network of private, public and nonprofit resources to offer holistic services that include employment training, housing, health care and the expansion of existing career services initiatives. This deeper collaboration is expected to support durable systemic change and benefit approximately 27,000 veterans and transitioning service members.\n\" Thanks to IVMF\u2019s program, I came from being unemployed and not in school to being in a much better financial position.

It gave me the opportunity to continue my career path in information technology and apply my skills. Now I\u2019m earning three times more compared to what I earned as a mover.\"\nLANESHIA, US\nLANESHIA BOOKER\nWhen Laneshia was a high school freshman, she and her three sisters moved into foster care due to difficulties at home. Laneshia\u2019s behavior and academic performance suffered. She spent days and nights on the streets, and her life was heading in a destructive direction. After months, Laneshia and her sisters moved back with their mom. A supportive teacher encouraged Laneshia to put effort into her school work and then she applied for the Genesys Works program.\nLaneshia completed the Genesys Works training program where she gained the skills and knowledge necessary to work in a corporate environment. During her senior year, Genesys Works helped Laneshia obtain an internship at Accenture. Her training and internship exposed her to people of different races, cultures, religions and age groups who all worked together toward a common goal. Through these experiences, she learned first-hand what it is like to work on a global team and in a professional setting. Laneshia also learned the importance of teamwork, deadlines and follow-through. Her Accenture mentor helped her develop time management skills and worked with her to further improve her speaking and writing skills.\nLaneshia was the valedictorian of her high school class. She was accepted into several universities and is attending the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff on a full scholarship. Her experiences at Genesys Works and Accenture helped her gain confidence in her abilities to network, build relationships and thrive in a professional environment\u2014enabling Laneshia to realize that a career in the corporate world is within reach. Her goal is to work in finance consulting.\nMore about Accenture & Genesys Works:\nGenesys Works empowers low-income high school students to see themselves as professionals and provides the tools to make this a reality: workplace training, a corporate internship and guidance from high school, through college, and into the workforce. Since 2011, we have provided more than $970,000 in cash, pro bono and volunteer support to Genesys Works. We conducted feasibility studies and a strategic growth plan that created the foundation for Genesys Works\u2019 five-year strategy. The feasibility studies led to the opening of offices in Chicago, San Francisco, Oakland, and Washington, DC, and the creation of a replica of Genesys Works\u2019 model in Ireland. The studies also helped Genesys Works increase class sizes, implement a finance track in Chicago, enhance their curriculum and create a program for their alumni. To date, nearly 100 students from Genesys Works have received internships at Accenture.\n\" Some nights I stay up all night studying and finishing homework, but I still love college. My experience at Accenture has prepared me for the hard work and professionalism that my classes require. I am already ahead of my peers.\"\nMARIA JOANA, BRAZIL\nMARIA JOANA SEABRA MELO\nWhen Maria Joana was 19, she learned about Conex\u00e3o through a presentation at school. She had no prior exposure to technology, but decided to take the course on Java programming, and quickly recognized the many opportunities available in the field.\nMaria Joana enrolled in one of Conex\u00e3o\u2019s programming language classes, focusing on Java, and along the way, she received coaching and mentoring from Accenture volunteers. The courses are the result of a partnership between Accenture and the \"Rede Cidad\u00e3. Since it was launched in Recife in 2013, the program has already trained 136 young people, and more than 300 students are expected to graduate and be ready for the market next year.\nUpon graduation, Maria Joana was hired by Accenture as a system analyst, and was recently promoted.

The first job she was able to land was as a customer service representative at a call center\u2014a role she was overqualified for. Looking work that better leveraged her skills, she reached out to colleagues, family and friends for advice, and ultimately learned about Upwardly Global.\nWilma completed Upwardly Global\u2019s online training and attended in-person sessions where she learned how to update her resume for a US job market, build networking skills, and \u201csell\u201d her qualifications to employers through mock interviews. In one of her mock interviews, Wilma met an Accenture employee who was so impressed by her that he offered to be a reference. A few weeks later, Wilma was hired by Accenture.\nWilma now works in a client-facing role, supporting Accenture Strategy. She gives back when she can, volunteering at both Accenture and Upwardly Global events. In the past she has participated in a women\u2019s panel for Upwardly Global participants\u2014hosted by Accenture\u2014where she had the opportunity to speak about her Upwardly Global experience.\nMore about Accenture & Upwardly Global: In the United States, Upwardly Global helps eliminate employment barriers and integrates skilled immigrants into the professional workforce. To help this talent pool better integrate into the US economy, Accenture helped Upwardly Global build its online job training platform, which equips jobseekers anywhere in the U.S. with acculturation, job search and technical skills. Through fiscal 2016, approximately 4,400 job seekers have used the online training created by Accenture, of whom nearly 2,000 have secured professional positions. To date, Accenture has hired 19 Upwardly Global alumni.\n\" Upwardly Global is a superb program for new immigrants.

        "title": "Mass extinctions - AccessScience from McGraw-Hill Education",
        "raw_content": "Extinction can be defined as the disappearance and death of a type of organism or group of organisms, particularly at the species level. Mass extinctions of numerous species have occurred throughout the history of life on Earth, and they continue to happen in the present day. On an historical scale, life on Earth has been punctuated by a number of catastrophic mass extinctions, in which diverse taxonomic groups collapse from the relatively rapid and widespread extinction of large numbers of species. (These periods of mass extinctions have historically been followed by phases during which the surviving species recover and diversify.) There have been five major mass extinctions during the past 540 million years during which species disappeared at a far higher rate than the normal (background) level. Each mass extinction was the result of one or more environmental perturbations on a global scale and led to the extinction of a significant proportion of the world\u2019s biota in a geologically short period. By some biologists\u2019 estimations, a sixth major mass extinction, predominantly attributed to humans\u2019 influence on the biosphere, may now be imminent or in progress. See also: Biodiversity; Extinction (biology); Extinction of species; Paleobiodiversity; Paleoecology\nThe five recognized major mass extinctions (sometimes called the \u201cBig Five\u201d) are the end-Ordovician, late Devonian, end-Permian (Permian\u2013Triassic), end-Triassic, and end-Cretaceous (Cretaceous\u2013Paleogene or K\u2013Pg, formerly known as the Cretaceous\u2013Tertiary or K\u2013T) mass extinctions. For example, approximately 252 million years ago, the end-Permian mass extinction was the most devastating global-scale event ever recorded, resulting in the loss of more than 96% of marine animal species and 70% of land animal species. The end-Cretaceous mass extinction, which occurred more than 65 million years ago, is particularly well known because this event led to the disappearance of the dinosaurs and the ascendance of mammals. See also: Dinosauria; Geologic time scale; Mammalia; Pelagic ecosystem recovery after end-Permian mass extinction\nThese major mass extinctions and the subsequent recoveries from them had an enormous impact on the course of life\u2019s evolution. To improve current models of evolutionary processes, biologists regard it as imperative to develop fuller comprehension of mass extinctions and recoveries, including their causes. For example, substantial evidence suggests that that the K\u2013Pg extinction event was triggered by a massive meteorite impact. It remains to be seen whether similar events might have been involved with other mass extinctions, although other factors were probably more significant in most of them. See also: Asteroid extinction; Macroevolution; Meteor; Meteorite\nOverall, a firm understanding of how the Earth\u2019s biota reacts to environmental disturbances is necessary for the management of the present-day biodiversity crisis. The geologic and fossil records are natural laboratories that can provide insights for the continuation of life on Earth, and these insights must not be dismissed. Such analyses are relevant with regard to the drastic impact of human activities on global biodiversity, and they should help in future responses to any possible environmental perturbations.

        "title": "Voyager 1 crosses the heliopause into interstellar space - AccessScience from McGraw-Hill Education",
        "raw_content": "Voyager 1 crosses the heliopause into interstellar space\nAfter 35 years of flight through space, the Voyage 1 probe finally entered interstellar space on August 25, 2012, according to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). On that date, at a distance of approximately 12 billion miles (19 billion kilometers) from the Sun, the probe crossed the outermost boundary of the vast solar wind structure called the heliosphere. In popular descriptions of this historic milestone, Voyager 1 is often said to have become the first human artifact to leave the solar system (although the technical accuracy of that description is debatable).\nNASA launched twin Voyagerspace probes in 1977 to examine the giant planets Jupiter and Saturn and other parts of the outer solar system. (Voyager 2, which departed two weeks ahead of Voyager 1, is still only about 9.5 billion miles, or 15 billion km, from the Sun because it detoured past the planets Uranus and Neptune.) Their observations, along with those of other spacecraft such as NASA\u2019s Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX), revolutionized space physicists\u2019 understanding of the heliosphere, a massive bubble of ionized particles that extends far beyond the Sun and planets. The heliosphere consists of gas emanating from the Sun as a fast-moving solar wind. When this material is roughly 100 million times farther from the Sun than Earth is, the energetic outward expansion of the plasma is checked by pressure from the denser (though still diffuse) interstellar medium. The boundary layer between the heliosphere and the interstellar medium is called the heliopause, and astrophysicists and other space scientists have been intensely curious about precisely how far out it is because its size has consequences for models of stellar activity and for how easily harmful cosmic rays from deep space can enter the solar system. See also: Cosmic rays; Interstellar matter; Plasma (physics); Solar wind; Solar magnetic field\nIn April 2013, a fortuitous burst of solar activity set up vibrations in the plasma surrounding Voyager 1, from which NASA scientists could calculate the plasma\u2019s density. It corresponded to the expected density of the interstellar medium. After reexamining earlier data, the scientists concluded that Voyager 1 passed out of the heliopause on August 25, 2012. NASA scientists reported this discovery online in the journal Science two weeks later, on September 12.\nSomewhat paradoxically, even though Voyager 1 is moving through the interstellar medium and in that sense has entered interstellar space, many critics object to saying that the spacecraft has left the solar system. The icy, rocky bodies of the Kuiper Belt and the proto-comets of the Oort Cloud (which has never been observed directly) orbit the Sun at much, much greater distances. The Oort Cloud may extend a third of the way to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star: it will be tens of thousands of years before Voyager 1 (by then inoperative) will emerge from it.

        "raw_content": "It's no secret that technology has changed the game for industries across the world. Platforms and software are constantly changing the market for the better. From improving operational efficiencies to inspiring more accountability within business processes, the advancements are plentiful.The Australian food industry is no exception. Technology has provided the optimal framework for the continued growth of exports, imports, production and manufacturing throughout the country. Beyond growth, digital advancements have made way for a new level of transparency in the food and beverage sector. Internal processes are in the spotlight more than ever as consumers demand to know where their food comes from and whether the conditions are ethical.Clearly, the changes spurred by technology in the food industry are wide-reaching. And for the most part, these advancements seem to be positive. Let's take a closer look at the top three food industry improvements due to technology:AccountabilityThe highly connected nature of today's world means increased levels of accountability for the modern food company. For better or worse, the window to company policies and procedures is wide open for consumers. And they are demanding changes to commonly accepted practices.The recently announced food label reforms are a great example. Consumers demanded more information about the origin on their foods and their cries were met with policies. The new legislation will require food suppliers to label their items with a kangaroo logo to indicate the product was made in Australia. The new labels will also include bar charts to indicate how much of the product includes Australia-based ingredients based off weight percentages.According to Business Insider, consumer advocacy groups such as Choice are pleased by the policies and are hopeful this trend toward transparency will continue.",

        "raw_content": "NYC Criminal Court Has Subpoenaed Twitter In Occupy Wall Street Case\nThe City of New York is bringing criminal charges against a key member of the Occupy Wall Street movement, and as part of its case it has subpoenaed Twitter for more than 3 months of his communication.\nTwitter is being called as a witness in the case against Malcolm Harris (@destructuremal). Harris was part of the Brooklyn Bridge protests during Occupy Wall Street, which saw masses occupy the bridge and clash with local authorities, leading to several dozen arrests \u2013 including Harris.\nOn January 26th, the City of New York issued a subpoena to Twitter which reads, in part:\n\u201cYOU ARE COMMANDED to appear before the CRIMINAL COURT of the County of New York, PART JURY 7, at the Criminal Court Building\u2026 as a witness in a criminal action prosecuted by the People of the State of New York\u2026\u201d\nIt demanded all of Harris\u2019 tweets between September 15 and December 31 2011, as well as his email address and any other user information associated with his account. If Twitter does not comply, the company might be considered in contempt of court, which would see them slapped with a $1,000 fine and imprisonment for up to one year.\nIn typical Twitter fashion, the company alerted Harris about the subpoena for his information, and the Huffington Post reports that they have agreed not to hand over this data to the prosecutors until Harris\u2019 attorney has filed a motion to quash the subpoena.\nWhen asked about the situation, a Twitter spokesperson would not comment directly, only reiterating that their policy is \u201cto notify users about law enforcement and governmental requests for their information, unless we are prevented by law from doing so.\u201d\n(Top image: Kuzma via Shutterstock)\nhttp://adweek.it/2k6MpXg",

        "raw_content": "Egyptians vote on election law change\nAs Egyptians begin voting on a referendum for a constitutional amendment, opposition parties are calling the polls a farce.\nPresident Hosni Mubarak has ruled Egypt for 24 years\nThe referendum on Wednesday asks voters to decide whether a government proposal to allow multi-party presidential elections should be incorporated into the constitution. Official results are expected on Thursday afternoon.\nHisham Kasim, vice-president of the opposition al-Ghad party and editor-in-chief of the party newspaper Al-Masri al-Youm, said he had always voted against President Hosni Mubarak in previous referendums but on Wednesday would boycott the vote.\n\"I am a member of this [al-Ghad] party and I will boycott the referendum today. This will mark the first time I do this,\" he told Aljazeera.net.\nOne voter ignored the opposition's call for a boycott and headed to the polls, allowing an Aljazeera.net reporter to follow her through much of the electoral process.\nRania Maged, 33, who is not a registered voter, went to her local police station at about 10:30am for instructions on how to use her national identity card to vote and found 30-40 other hopeful voters also waiting for information.\n\"I decided to vote because the referendum is marking a turning point in the political history of our country,\" she told Aljazeera.net.\nShe was directed to a polling station in a school in the Heliopolis district of Cairo. A handful of voters were present.\nAljazeera.net's reporter was not allowed into the polling booth.\nMaged said she voted 'no' to the referendum because she had reservations about the conditions placed on presidential hopefuls. She said an explanation of Article 76 and the proposed amendment were printed on the back of the ballot.\nAt one point inside the polling station, Maged said, someone approached her to inquire about her vote.\n\"I found out he was a member of the NDP [National Democratic Party],\" she said.\n\"But a security officer there reprimanded him and told him he was not allowed to talk to voters.\"\nLate on Tuesday evening and early on Wednesday morning, volunteers of the ruling NDP could be seen erecting banners proclaiming allegiance to Mubarak, who has led the country since 1981.\nPassers-by watching the banners go up on Faisal Street, a kilometre from the Pyramids, shrugged and walked on.\n\"What voting?\" asked Ahmed Ali, 37, a building concierge and father of seven.\nAli laughed as he told Aljazeera.net he would not be voting and didn't care to know the results. \"Nothing will change,\" he said.\nPolitical gambit\nIn part, the amendment states a presidential candidate must be a member of an official political party or, if running as an independent, get a minimum of 65 recommendations from elected members of the lower house, 25 from the Shura Council and 10 from local councils from at least 14 governorates.\n\"Look around you - all Arab leaders are never voted out of power. Either they die or are overthrown\"\nSamir Ahmad,\nEgyptian factory manager\nSome political figures think such an amendment is self-defeating, restricting the efficacy of opposition parties. A referendum on the amendment, they say, is a political gambit.\n\"It's all a game, I tell you ... a game,\" independent presidential hopeful Nawal al-Saadawi told Aljazeera.net.\nShe said that whether Egyptians vote \"yes\" or \"no\", the government still comes out the winner.\n\"If you vote 'no', then you demand going back to a single candidate presidential referendum, while if you vote 'yes', you accept the abortive conditions that make it impossible to have competing candidates stand in the elections.\"\nAl-Saadawi says she has no choice but to boycott the referendum.\n\"Everybody should boycott the referendum. If all members of the opposition boycott the referendum, it will be exposed for what it is ... just a play-act.\"\nBut independent political commentator Khairy Ramadan thinks a boycott by the centre-liberal al-Wafd, Tagamu, Nasserist and al-Ghad (Tomorrow) parties will ultimately hurt Egyptians' interests.\nGovernment supporters have\nbeen making their voices heard\n\"I am against the boycott because it will not reveal to us the opinion of the people,\" he told Aljazeera.net.\n\"A boycott will show the political immaturity of the Egyptian population.\"\nAhmed Mousa, deputy editor-in-chief of the pro-government national newspaper Al-Ahram, chided the al-Wafd party for what he called incitement against the state.\n\"This is a grave call and will negatively influence the political atmosphere in Egypt,\" he said.\nAlthough government-run unions and the public sector have promised Egyptians will cast their vote en masse, the mood on the street is indifferent.\n\"I am against the boycott because it will not reveal to us the opinion of the people. A boycott will show the political immaturity of the Egyptian population\"\nKhairy Ramadan,\n\"We can't win \u2013 the Egyptian people can't win,\" said a 39-year-old surgeon who said he would not vote on the referendum.\n\"No one can take power from Mubarak, and these opposition parties are a joke.\"\nHe says he has lost hope in the political process and most of his friends are apathetic about reform.\nSamir Ahmad, a manager at a private-sector factory, says Egypt is like all the other Arab countries.\n\"Look around you - all Arab leaders are never voted out of power. Either they die or are overthrown.\"\nSecurity forces deploy\nEgyptian security forces on Wednesday were taking precautions to ensure the voting goes smoothly. By dawn, several armoured trucks could be seen deploying throughout Cairo. Demonstrations by all parties - government and opposition - were prohibited on Wednesday.\nIn the central Tahrir area of Cairo - less than a few hundred metres from the People's Assembly - riot police carrying rifles were deploying.\nEgypt has been rocked by\nanti-government demonstrations\n\"The country is going to be upside down in a few hours,\" said Fadi Mahmoud as he left a mosque shortly after dawn prayers in the posh district of Dokki.\nHe said he was worried there may be a massive demonstration by anti-government groups.\nBut demonstrations notwithstanding, the government is upbeat. Late on Tuesday evening, Mubarak addressed the nation, saying: \"The new amendment to the constitution is a categorical move on the road of political reforms.\"\n\"Look, this is historic,\" Mousa said. \"This is the first time we are talking about multi-candidate presidential elections ... it has\nnever happened in Egypt's modern history.\n\"The citizens know their interests. They will show up at the polling stations in great numbers.\"",

        "raw_content": "Q&A: The Oslo Accords, Syria, and 'responsibility to protect'\nNoam Chomsky discusses the Palestinian Authority's weakness and the implications of a US strike on Syria.\n\"There\u2019s no bright spot on the horizon\" for Syria, says Chomsky [Reuters]\nAs the 20th anniversary of the Oslo Accords approaches, the issue of Palestinian statehood and Israeli hegemony continue to be a major flashpoint in the Middle East. Meanwhile, all eyes are on Syria, where the US has threatened to launch attacks on Bashar al-Assad's regime for its alleged use of chemical weapons.\nFrank Barat speaks to Professor Noam Chomsky, a linguist and scholar who has written extensively about US foreign policy and Palestinian/Israeli relations, about the Palestinian Authority, a potential US attack on Syria, and the doctrine of \"responsibility to protect\".\nFrank Barat: What is the definition of negotiations in Israel-US language, and why is the Palestinian Authority playing along?\nNoam Chomsky: From the US point of view, negotiations are, in effect, a way for Israel to continue its policies of systematically taking over whatever it wants in the West Bank, maintaining the brutal siege on Gaza, separating Gaza from the West Bank and, of course, occupying the Syrian Golan Heights, all with full US support. And the framework of negotiations, as in the past 20 years of the Oslo experience, has simply provided a cover for this.\nFB: Why is the PA playing along with this and going to negotiations time after time?\nNC: It's probably partly out of desperation. You can ask whether it's the right choice or not, but they don't have many alternatives.\nFB: So in your opinion, it's pretty much to survive that they indeed accept the framework?\nNC: If they were to refuse to join the US-run negotiations, their basis for support would collapse. They survive on donations essentially. Israel has made sure that it's not a productive economy. They're a kind of what would be called in Yiddish a \"schnorrer society\": you just borrow and live on what you can get.\nWhether they have an alternative to that is not so clear, but if they were to refuse the US demand for negotiations on completely unacceptable terms, their basis for support would erode. And they do have support - external support - enough so that the Palestinian elite can live in a fairly decent, often lavish, lifestyle, while the society around them collapses\nFB: So would the crumbling and disappearance of the PA be a bad thing after all?\nNC: It depends on what would replace it. If, say, [imprisoned Intifada leader] Marwan Barghouti were permitted to join the society the way, say, Nelson Mandela was finally, that could have a revitalising effect in organising a Palestinian society that might press for more substantial demands. But remember: They don't have a lot of choices.\nIn fact, go back to the beginning of the Oslo Agreements, now 20 years old. There were negotiations underway - the Madrid negotiations - at which the Palestinian delegation was led by Haider Abdel-Shafi, a highly respected, left-nationalist figure in Palestine. He was refusing to agree to the US-Israel terms, which required crucially that settlement expansion was allowed to continue. He refused, and therefore the negotiations stalled and got nowhere.\nMeanwhile, Arafat and the external Palestinians went on the side-track through Oslo, gained control and Haider Abdel-Shafi was so opposed to this he didn't even show up to the dramatic and meaningless ceremony where Clinton beamed while Arafat and Rabin shook hands. He didn't show up because he realised it was a total sell-out. But he was principled and as a result, could get nowhere - the same thing will happen to us unless there's substantial support from the European Union, the Gulf states and, ultimately, from the United States.\nFB: In your opinion, what is really at stake in what's unravelling in Syria at the moment, and what does it mean for the broader region?\nNC: Well, Syria is descending into suicide. It's a horror story and getting worse and worse. There's no bright spot on the horizon. What will probably happen, if this continues, is that Syria will be partitioned into probably three regions; a Kurdish region - which is already forming - that could pull out and join in some fashion the semi-autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan, maybe with some kind of deal with Turkey.\nThe rest of the country will be divided between a region dominated by the Assad regime - a brutal, horrifying regime - and another section dominated by the various militias, which range from the extremely malicious and violent to the secular and democratic. Meanwhile, Israel is looking by and enjoying the spectacle. If you look at the New York Times this morning, there's a quote by an Israeli official essentially expressing their joy at watching Arabs slaughter each other.\nCF: Yes, I read that.\nNC: For the United States, that's fine, they don't want an outcome either. If the US and Israel wanted to assist the rebels - which they do not - they can do it, even without military intervention.\nFor example, if Israel were to mobilise forces on the Golan Heights (of course, it's the Syrian Golan Heights, but by now the world more or less tolerates or accepts Israel's illegal occupation), If they would just do that, It would compel Assad to move forces to the south, which would relieve pressure against the rebels. But there's no hint even of that. They're also not giving humanitarian aid to the huge number of suffering refugees, not doing all kinds of simple things that they could do.\nAll of which suggests that both Israel and the United States prefer exactly what is happening today, just as reported in that NYT story this morning. Meanwhile, Israel can celebrate, and its status as what they call a \"villa in the jungle\". There was an interesting article by the editor of Haaretz, Aluf Benn, who wrote about how Israelis are going to the beach and enjoying themselves, and congratulating themselves as being a \"villa in the jungle\" while the wild beasts out there tear each other to shreds. And, of course, Israel under this picture is doing nothing except defending itself. They like that picture and the US doesn't seem too dissatisfied with it either. The rest is shadowboxing.\nFB: What about talk of a US strike, then - do you think it's going to happen?\nFB: Yes.\nNC: Well, it's kind of an interesting debate in the United States. The ultra-right, the right-wing extremists who are kind of off the international spectrum, they're opposing it, though not for reasons I like. They're opposing it because \"Why should we dedicate ourselves to solving other people's problems and waste our own resources?\" They're literally asking, \"Who's going to defend us when we're attacked, because we're devoting ourselves to helping people overseas?\"\nThat's the ultra-right. If you look at the \"moderate\" right, people like, say, David Brooks of the New York Times, considered an intellectual commentator on the right. His view is that the US effort to withdraw its forces from the region is not having a \"moderating effect\". According to Brooks, when US forces are in the region, that has a moderating effect; it improves the situation, as you can see in Iraq, for example. But if we're withdrawing our forces then we're no longer able to moderate the situation and make it better.\nThat's the standard view from the intellectual right over to the mainstream, the liberal democrats and so on. So there's a lot of talk about \"Should we exercise our 'responsibility to protect'?\" Well, just take a look at the US record on \"responsibility to protect\". The fact that these words can even be spoken reveals something quite extraordinary about the US - and, in fact, Western - moral and intellectual culture.\nThis is quite apart from the fact that it's a gross violation of international law. Obama's latest line is that he didn't establish a \"red line\", but the world did through its conventions on chemical warfare. Well, actually, the world does have a treaty, which Israel didn't sign and which the US has totally neglected, for example when it supported Saddam Hussein's really horrifying use of chemical weapons. Today, this is used to denounce Saddam Hussein, overlooking the fact that it was not only tolerated but basically supported by the Reagan administration. And, of course, the convention has no enforcement mechanisms.\nThere's also no such thing as \"responsibility to protect\" - that's a fraud perpetrated in Western intellectual culture. There is a notion, in fact two notions: There's one passed by the UN General Assembly, which does talk about \"responsibility to protect\", but it offers no authorisation for any kind of intervention except under conditions of the United Nations charter. There is another version, which is adopted only by the West, the US and its allies, which is unilateral and says R2P permits \"military intervention by regional organisations in the region of their authority without Security Council authorisation\".\nWell, translating that into English, this means that it provides authorisation for the US and NATO to use violence wherever they choose without Security Council authorisation. That's what's called \"responsibility to protect\" in Western discourse. If it weren't so tragic it would be farcical.\nFB: Thank you, Professor Chomsky.\nA version of this interview was first published on Ceasefire.",

        "raw_content": "At All Good Automotive II, we understand the terror that comes with the words \"transmission repair\" and we want you to know that there is hope after all. Whether manual or automatic, heavy duty or low range, the transmission is a vital part at the center of your vehicle's drivetrain. Your transmission is instrumental in turning the engine's power into forward movement, so it's not surprising that problems with this important component can cripple your car. The experts at All Good Automotive II have years of experience working on transmissions of all types and sizes. When everything grinds to a halt we have the skills to get you moving forward once more.\nOne of the easiest ways to avoid a large transmission repair bill is to flush the fluid according to the vehicle manufacturer's guidelines. Your transmission contains a lot of intricate moving parts which can deteriorate quickly if not properly lubricated. All Good Automotive II's technicians can take a sample of your transmission fluid and determine how long it will be before it's time to renew. When that time comes, we can have you in and out of the shop quickly.\nSometimes our technicians don't get to look at the problem until after something has gone wrong. While this is certainly more serious than a simple transmission fluid change, it doesn't have to spell disaster. At All Good Automotive II, our expert technicians can carefully disassemble your transmission, identify any faults, and determine whether repairs can be made or not. We utilize an extensive network of parts suppliers, manufacturer knowledge, and expert repair skills to get your transmission repaired, and your vehicle back on the roads of Richmond, VA.\nAt its most basic, your car's clutch allows the engine and gearbox to engage and disengage from each other between gear changes. This means that although the engine's output shaft is still spinning, there is no load on the gears which may cause them to shift improperly. Once the next gear is smoothly selected your clutch will re-engage the engine and gearbox, resuming forward momentum. Over time, and especially in improperly operated manual transmission vehicles, the clutch can become worn and less effective at its job. A damaged clutch can allow the engine and gearbox to re-engage mid-gear change, and this can have serious effects on the health of your transmission. All Good Automotive II determines the health of your clutch through diagnostic testing as well as test driving. As with a transmission fluid flush, we'll have your car back on the road and your peace of mind stretching for miles.\nAnother area of our gear-based expertise is your car's differentials. These sit in the middle of your car's axles between the wheels and are vital for a smooth ride. As you turn a corner, the outside wheel has to travel a greater distance than the inside wheel. Without properly functioning differentials, the wheels would turn at the same rate causing your car to vibrate horribly, and struggle to turn whenever you tried to go around a corner. When it comes to examining, diagnosing, and fixing faulty differentials, our experience with transmissions makes All Good Automotive II the best place to go in Richmond, VA.\nAvoid transmission disaster by coming in and having your transmission, clutch, and differentials checked out today. Call us at 804-447-6975 or visit us in Richmond, VA so we can schedule an appointment to ensure your car is in tip-top shape!\nAutomatic Transmissions shift between gears automatically to optimize driving, and changes gears based on the driver's throttle pedal, vehicle speed, engine speed, and vehicle load. Typical automatic transmissions have 4-5 forward gear ratios, a Reverse, Park, and Neutral gear. Shifting gears occur automatically once the car is in Drive and there is no need for a clutch pedal or gear shift like there is in a Manual Transmission. Automatic transmission repair is complicated based on all the components that make it up, and you need to have any automatic transmission issues properly assessed by auto mechanics. Call 804-447-6975 to talk to the mechanics of All Good Automotive II about your transmission problems.\nThere are clutches in both automatic and manual transmission cars, and different types of clutches. When shifting gears, the clutch engages and disengages from the flywheel and transfers the torque through the transmission. Clutches should help your vehicle start and shift gears smoothly. The clutch in your car receives a lot of wear and can eventually wear out. If your clutch begins slipping irregularly or is making noises that are raising suspicion, contact All Good Automotive II to see if clutch replacement is necessary.\nA four-wheel (4x4) drive vehicle has differential gears, both front and rear axles, and a transfer case attached to the transmission. Four-wheel drive vehicles demand maintenance on the transfer case, front differentials, rear differentials, and transmission fluids. Visit us on 2101 Semmes Ave for service on your four-wheel drive transmission services.\nIf your vehicle has Front-wheel drive, the engine drives the front wheels only. The power is routed through the transmission to the final drive where it is split and sent to the two front wheels through the drive axles. The engine, transmission, and additional hardware is all located in the front of the car. If you are in need, All Good Automotive II of Richmond, VA will gladly repair front-wheel drive transmission vehicles.\nDriving a vehicle with a Manual Transmission requires using the clutch pedal and gear shift to manually shift gears based on the speed of the vehicle. Manual transmissions have been built with anywhere from two to eight gears. Front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive are the two main configurations for manual transmissions. Typically, manual transmissions require less maintenance then automatic transmissions. At All Good Automotive II, our auto mechanics can diagnose your vehicle and then recommend the transmission repair or transmission service you need to ensure safety and improve the lifetime of your vehicle.\nIn motor vehicles, the transmission usually refers to the gear box, which uses gears and gear trains to transmit speed and tourque from a rotating power source to another device. You can have your car's transmission replaced with a new, rebuilt, remanufactured, repaired or used transmission. For more information contact All Good Automotive II in Richmond, VA. Our experienced service technicians can help you make the best decision for your vehicle and your wallet.\nA transfer case is a part of a four wheel drive system found in four wheel drive and all wheel drive vehicles. The transfer case receives power from the transmission and sends it to both the front and rear axles. This can be done with a set of gears, but the majority of transfer cases manufactured today are chain driven. The transfer case is connected to the transmission and also to the front and rear axles by means of drive shafts.Trust the automotive experts at All Good Automotive II for all your transmission repairs.",

        "raw_content": "Atherton: Troy Henderson retires after 35 years\nTroy Henderson, Atherton's public works supervisor, is retiring this Thursday, June 30, after 35 years of working for the town. Although he had planned to work another year, he had, along with 12 other employees, received a pink slip last month, and may have been laid off July 15.\nMr. Henderson, 61, said the retirement was his choice, but that as the union was engaged in an urgent effort to negotiate staff concessions to save jobs on the chopping block -- including with early retirements -- he felt pressure to end his career in Atherton.\n\"They needed someone to be retired,\" he told the Almanac, adding that because of his age and years of service, he was a likely candidate. But \"it's sad not to go out on my own terms. It hurts ... but that's the way it is.\"\nThe town notified 13 employees in the building and public works department of its intent to lay them off late last month, and began the process of outsourcing the services they provide, seeking proposals from private companies.\nSince then, the union has offered concessions ranging from early retirement and employee furloughs to higher employee contributions to benefits.\nThe union and the town were scheduled to meet on June 27 to further discuss the proposal.\nMr. Henderson started his work with the town as a general laborer, and went on to be public works supervisor. \"If it's been done in this town, I've done it,\" he said.\nIn 2008, he was accused by Atherton police officer Pilar Ortiz-Buckley of assault and battery after an incident that occurred in the police station staff room. A jury returned a \"not guilty\" verdict in July 2009.\nMr. Henderson said he has \"nothing to say about all that,\" but in discussing his tenure with the town, he said: \"I've been through a lot in the last 35 years. ... I've had some really bad heartaches in this town -- people lie about you, they fabricate about you, but I've always just kept my head up.\"\nIn spite of the heartaches, Mr. Henderson said that he loves Atherton, \"and I wish the town the best of luck.\" He regrets that the town is heading in the direction of outsourcing and laying off employees who have \"given their all to it, who love this town so much.\"\nPosted by OK\nThey all lied 6+ times? Outsourcing will be good for the town.\nPosted by Local contractor\nIn all the towns I have worked in over 30 years of building houses I have never dealt with a worse public employee than Troy. [Portion removed; see terms of use] Besides being a poor public works inspector he was a costly embarrassment to the town with all the internal harassment complaints. Search his name in these archives if you have any doubt. Web Link\nThe APD has been trying to get rid of Troy for years because he knew too many of their little secrets, Officer Pilar Buckly was actively encouraged to take the Town for what ever she could get as long as she took Troy out with her. She got her $250,00 pay off out of the Town per this arrangement, but the Jury just laughed her case out of court.\nThere are Plenty of people who feel really terrible about all of this Troy, you have to remember this always. Please just ignore the hurtful comments above made by spiteful contractors who didn't always get whatever they wanted as they pillaged their way through Town.\nPosted by Lisa Lamb\nI would like to personally thank Troy for his many years of service to the town of Atherton. He will be greatly missed by many of us, many of us who live and work here. I will miss seeing him on the streets of Atherton.\nI too am one of those people who feels terrible about what is happening to our public works department and our building department employees. No one should have this happen to them, especially those working in a town like Atherton.\nI wish all the town employees good luck in whatever they do next and thank them again for a job well done.\nPosted by Show some class\nI'm disappointed by the pot shots that have been taken at this 35-year employee with his retirement announcement. Personally I have to think that a quarter of a million dollars for whatever happened in that break room, on video tape (yet the jury said no dice) should have been sufficient consideration to move on. I hope no current police officers are behind these comments as they should more than anyone respect the findings of a jury or a judge since they are part of the criminal justice 2themselves, by choice, and well paid for it.\nMr. Henderson, thank you for 35 years and sorry for the undignified and petty remarks.\nCongratulations Troy! As a few above have said, let the petty remarks just flow down that channel that runs through the Town. You and I both know what really went on (and continues to go on) in that Town.\n'All the Best' in your retirement....and GOOD FISHING!!!\n\"Show\", Lisa and Steve, have you looked at his record of harassment prior to that particular trial? 16 sexual-harassment complaints filed against Mr. Henderson by Atherton town staff members prior to this last one. 16! But they must all be liars right? Really?\nPosted by IKNOW\nTroy congratulations - you've given it all you had to give -",

        "raw_content": "Benefits Review Board, Office of Administrative Law Judges, Situs, Status\nWe have a new truck driver case from the U.S. Department of Labor\u2019s Benefits Review Board (BRB).\nThis one deals with the issue of situs as well as status. The decision also ducks the question of whether the driver was an independent contractor, not an employee and thus not covered by workers\u2019 compensation, either state act or federal USL&H.\nThe case is Abdulaziz A. Ahmed v. Western Ports Transportation, Inc., BRB No. 16-0067, 9/21/16.\nThe claimant is a commercial truck driver. His \u201cemployer\u201d contracts with independent truck owner/operators to transport domestic and international containers between rail yards, retail outlets, piers, and warehouses.\nHe usually worked as part of the employer\u2019s \u201crail\u201d operations, moving containers between the Port of Seattle terminals and rail yards.\nHe was injured at a rail yard, the Union Pacific Intermodal Facility. The Facility is two to three miles from the Port and the claimant\u2019s route from the Port to the Facility involves, \u201c\u2026 turns onto several streets and Highway 99, as well as crossing a drawbridge \u2026\u201d.\nSo, based on where the injury occurred, is the Facility a covered situs under the Longshore Act?\nThe situs provision of the Act, section 3(a), states:\n\u201cExcept as other wise provided in this section, compensation shall be payable under this chapter in respect of disability or death of an employee, but only if the disability or death results from an injury occurring upon the navigable waters of the United States (including any pier, wharf, dry dock, terminal, building way, marine railway, or other adjoining area customarily used by an employer in loading, unloading, repairing, dismantling, or building a vessel).\u201d\nOur truck driver here was not injured over the water or at any of the specifically enumerated sites, so that leaves us with the question of whether the Union Pacific Intermodal Facility is an \u201cother adjoining area customarily used by an employer in loading, unloading, repairing, dismantling, or building a vessel\u201d.\nNOTE: This injury occurred in the jurisdiction of the federal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (states of WA, OR, MT, ID, CA, NV, AZ, AK, HI). In the Ninth Circuit an \u201cadjoining\u201d area does not have to actually touch or be contiguous with the water as it does in the Fourth (states of MD, VA, WV, SC, NC) and Fifth (states of TX, LA, MS) Circuits, \u201cadjoining\u201d means with \u201ccontiguous with\u201d. In the Ninth Circuit, \u201cadjoining\u201d depends on:\n\u201c\u2026 the particular suitability of the site for the maritime uses referred to in the statute; whether adjoining properties are devoted primarily to uses in maritime commerce; the proximity of the site to the waterway; and whether the site is as close to the waterway as is feasible given all of the circumstances in the case.\u201d (Brady-Hamilton Stevedore Co. v. Herron, 568 F.2nd 137 (9th Cir. 1978))\nIn our case, the Facility is surrounded by mixed use properties (maritime and non-maritime), is several miles from the Port, and generally does not function as an area of maritime commerce.\nEven in the relatively broad approach to situs used in the Ninth Circuit, the BRB affirmed the Administrative Law Judge\u2019s (ALJ) finding that the claimant\u2019s injuries did not occur on a covered situs.\nNOTE: Although the Facility is located \u201cseveral miles\u201d from the Port, distance alone was not the reason that it was not a covered situs. Distance from the water is one among several factors considered in the Ninth Circuit.\nSo, the claimant in this case does not meet situs, and since both status and situs have to be independently satisfied for Longshore Act coverage, the case could have ended here.\nBut the BRB also discussed the status of the claimant, and affirmed the ALJ\u2019s finding that the claimant did not meet status.\nThe claimant moved cargo from the Port of Seattle\u2019s terminals to an intermodal rail facility. In the landmark case of P.C. Pfeiffer Co. v. Ford, 444 U.S. 69 (1979), the U.S. Supreme Court held that workers engaged in intermediate steps of moving cargo between ship and land transportation were covered by the Longshore Act. And in another landmark case, Northeast Marine Terminal Co. v. Caputo, 432 U.S. 249 (1977), the Supreme Court rejected the \u201cpoint of rest\u201d theory. Unloading of cargo does not consist only of moving the cargo from the vessel to its initial point of rest at dockside.\nWas the driver\u2019s job an intermediate step in the process of moving cargo between the Port of Seattle\u2019s terminals and the Intermodal Facility?\nThis issue involves the identification of the point at which cargo handling ends and land transportation begins. Workers on one side are engaged in maritime employment and meet status under the Longshore Act. Workers on the other side of this point are not engaged in maritime employment.\nIn addressing the status issue in the Ahmed case the BRB reviewed a number of prior truck driver cases. It considered several cases in which drivers who transported cargo between port terminals and facilities located outside the port were involved in the land based stream of commerce rather than an intermediate step in the loading/unloading process. The key point in several of the cases is that the drivers were transporting sealed containers to destinations outside the ports area.\nOn the other hand, transporting containers within the port area, such as from the dockside to terminal storage facilities and other destinations within the port, were considered to be still part of the loading/unloading process, i.e., an intermediate step since the cargo had not yet entered land transportation.\nSince the driver in our case was transporting between the port and the Intermodal Facility outside the port he was involved in land transportation and did not meet status under the Longshore Act.\nFinally, the claimant in this case did not board vessels or handle cargo. He just drove the truck. His activities were the first step in land transportation. In the other direction, his activity would be the last step in land transportation of cargo to be put aboard vessels.\nNOTE: The ALJ had also found that the claimant was an independent contractor and not an employee. It would have been an interesting discussion if the BRB had also taken up this issue.\nNOTE: This claimant was also out of luck with his compensation claim under the state act, in which he was adjudicated to be an independent contractor, not covered by workers\u2019 compensation.",

        "title": "Impact of the Recent Tax Reform on the Private Equity Industry | Anchin, Block & Anchin LLP",
        "raw_content": "Impact of the Recent Tax Reform on the Private Equity Industry\nAnchin AlertMay 15, 2018E. George Teixeira, Tax Partner, Private Equity Practice\nThe Tax Act reduced the highest corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, eliminated the special fixed rate of 35% for personal service corporations and repealed the corporate alternative minimum tax entirely. While the rate cut is obviously beneficial for corporate taxpayers, its impact on the private equity industry is less clear. The effect of the new lower rate for corporations and the new pass-through deduction for certain pass-through businesses (discussed below) will need to be carefully considered in deciding the best structure to hold portfolio company investments.\nThe balance sheet impact of the tax rate cut is also a material talking point. Companies with deferred tax assets are adding to their balance sheet the tax savings that will arise from future tax deductions whereas deferred tax liabilities reflect taxes that will be due on future taxable amounts. Both deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the deductions or liabilities are realized. With the corporate tax rate reduction, the value of the deferred tax asset will be cut and the exposure from a deferred tax liability will be reduced. Companies with large deferred tax asset balances must record a charge to earnings when they write down the value of these assets while companies with large deferred tax liabilities will report a big one-time earnings gain on the write-down of these liabilities. For private equity funds that have valued deferred tax assets in their earnings multiples for valuation or buyout purposes, this write-down will not be welcome news. However, the benefit of the lower corporate tax rate on future earnings softens the blow of the write-down.\nThe Tax Act also significantly affects the considerations that go into whether a particular acquisition should be structured as a stock or an asset acquisition. The lower corporate tax rate reduces the value to a corporate buyer of structuring the deal as an asset acquisition so that the tax basis of the acquired assets are \u201cstepped-up\u201d (if the purchase price exceeds the aggregate tax basis of the assets being acquired, the buyer receives a stepped-up basis in the assets equal to the purchase price). Because used depreciable tangible property is eligible for 100% immediate expensing (discussed below in more detail), a purchaser of assets may be able to immediately expense a significant portion of the purchase price of the asset purchase. Whether this produces a net positive or net negative impact on the benefit of a step-up transaction to the buyer will depend on the particular facts and circumstances of the transaction.\nQualified small business stock is an often overlooked tax windfall. Under Section 1202 of the Internal Revenue Code, gain from the sale of qualified small business stock (\u201cQSBS\u201d) held form more than five years in not includible in gross income; therefore, not taxable. To qualify as QSBS under Section 1202: (1) the stock must be in a domestic C corporation and it must be a C corporation for substantially all of the time you hold the stock; (2) the corporation may not have more than $50 million in assets as of the date the stock was issued and immediately thereafter; (3) Your stock must be acquired at its original issue (not from a secondary market); (4) during substantially all of the time that you hold the stock, at least 80% of the value of the corporation\u2019s assets must be used in the active conduct of one or more qualified businesses. While the Tax Act did not change Section 1202, the combination of the reduction in the corporate tax rate and the potential exclusion of gain on the sale of stock under Section 1202, may make Section 1202 more attractive to those that qualify under the requirements mentioned above.\nNew Pass-Through Income Deduction\nQBI is generally defined as the net amount of qualified items of income, gain, deduction and loss from any qualified business operating in the United States of the non-corporate owner. QBI does not include investment income, reasonable compensation income or guaranteed payments to the taxpayer from the business. The QBI deduction is not allowed in calculating the non-corporate owner\u2019s adjusted gross income (AGI), but it reduces taxable income. In effect, it\u2019s treated the same as an allowable itemized deduction.\nThe 20% deduction is not available for income realized from \u201cspecified service trades or businesses\u201d such as health, law, accounting, consulting, financial services firms and other businesses where the principal asset of such trade or business is the reputation or skill of one or more of its employees or owners, unless realized by a taxpayer whose taxable income falls below the thresholds described above. The deduction is therefore not available with respect to management fees earned by the investment manager of a private equity fund. However, it is available with respect to income earned by non-corporate taxpayers through the private equity fund\u2019s portfolio companies that are held as pass-through investments. Since the pass-through deduction will be limited based on W-2 wages paid at the portfolio company level, it will be relevant and important to structure compensation arrangements to qualify as W-2 wages as opposed to independent contractors (via Form 1099-MISC) or guaranteed payments (via Schedule k-1).\nAnchin Observation: The Tax Act increases the compliance burden on pass-through entities and their owners while also lowering the corporate tax rate. However, these changes alone should not impact the decision to structure portfolio companies as corporations versus pass-through vehicles. Portfolio companies structured as pass-through entities may still be the way to go given the new pass-through deduction rules as well as some existing tried and true factors such as one layer of tax at the entity level and the ability to structure and exit with preferential buyer benefits. In addition, a future tax law change could increase the corporate tax rate, leaving many who converted to a C corporation with an inflexible tax vehicle with a potential high cost of converting to a pass-through.\nAnchin Observation: The carried interest change would apply to incentive allocations in private equity funds as well as fund interests acquired through management fee waivers. As mentioned earlier, it would not apply to a partners earnings on capital contributions to the fund. However, it is still unclear how this new provision applies to mixed capital and profits interests, which is fairly common in private equity fund structures. Although not explicitly stated in this new provision, it would appear that the intent to allow such a bifurcation whereby part of any interest (capital interest) would qualify for the exception even if another part (profits interest) does not.\nAlso, even though we have had some recent press and an IRS notice highlighting the uncertainty, it still remains unclear if an applicable partnership interest held by an S corporation would be excluded under this new provision.\nAnchin Observation: This provision will limit the ability of owners of a private equity management company or a portfolio company structured as a pass-through from using those losses to offset other income of the owner (i.e., investment income such as dividends, interest and capital gains).\nAnchin Observation: Since not all states have (or will) confirm to the federal law change, it is important to try to keep current of the states that the fund (and portfolio companies) operate in so as to manage the (increased) state tax liabilities as a result of this new provision.\nUnder prior law, subject to some restrictions and exceptions, (business) interest paid or accrued by a business generally is fully deductible. The Tax Act significantly restricts the deductibility of interest paid or accrued by certain private investment funds that are engaged in a trade or business for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, including interest paid on existing indebtedness. The term business interest would not, however, include investment interest (as described under \u00a7163(d)). The deduction for business interest expense is generally limited to the sum of business interest income plus 30% of adjusted taxable income. For this purpose, adjusted taxable income is determined at the entity level for partnerships and generally is earnings before interest, depreciation, amortization or depletion for tax years beginning before 2022 with no addbacks for depreciation, amortization or depletion for taxable years thereafter.\nFor partnerships and LLCs that are treated as partnerships for tax purposes, this limit is applied at the entity level rather than at the owner level. Any business interest disallowed at the entity level in a taxable year is allocated to the partners and may only be deducted by them against excess adjusted taxable income allocated to them from such partnership in a future year. Amounts that cannot be deducted in the current year can generally be carried forward indefinitely. A partner\u2019s adjusted basis in its partnership interest is reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of excess business interest allocated to the partner. If a partner disposes of its partnership interest, including in a non-recognition transaction, the partner\u2019s basis in the interest is increased, immediately prior to the disposition, by the excess of: (i) the amount basis was reduced as described above over (ii) the amount of excess business interest allocated to the partner and treated as paid or accrued in a succeeding tax year.\nThe limitation also applies to tax shelters. A partnership or S corporation that allocates more than 35 percent of its losses for the year to limited partners or limited entrepreneurs is considered a tax shelter.\nAnchin Observation: The interest expense ceiling could be problematic to highly leveraged private equity backed portfolio companies. There also is no rule on grandfathering existing debt. The extent to which the interest expense limitation will affect the private equity industry is not yet clear. Obviously, where income is high enough and interest is entirely deductible, borrowing to finance acquisitions or growth may be more attractive than dilution through the issuance of additional equity. On the other hand, if earnings are low enough to trigger the new interest deduction limitation, capitalization through additional equity issuances may become the preferred route. It should be noted, that most of the recent growth in private equity and their portfolio company investments has been financed with debt. Such funds must now consider carefully modelling their earnings expectations to determine potential interest deduction limitations, which could result in a shift to the use of more equity instead of debt.\nThis provision would impact foreign partners of partnerships engaged, directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships, in a U.S. trade or business. The Tax Act codifies Revenue Ruling 91-32, effectively reversing the Grecian Magnesite decision. Gain or loss on the disposition of a partnership by a foreign partner is treated as effectively connected income (\u201cECI\u201d) and subject to taxation in the U.S. if the gain or loss from the sale of the underlying assets held by the partnership is treated as ECI. To implement this new rule, the Tax Act requires transferees of partnership interests to withhold 10% of the amount realized on the sale or exchange of such an interest unless the transferor certifies it is not a foreign person. This new rule has potential implications for sales of interests in private equity funds, portfolio companies in partnership form and in some sales of interests in fund management companies. The rules treating the gain or loss on a sale or exchange of a partnership interest as ECI are effective for dispositions on or after November 27, 2017 with the withholding provisions effective for dispositions after December 31, 2017. For our prior coverage on this, please click here.\nAnchin Observation: This provision will also apply to partnership distributions in excess of tax basis that result in gain recognition to a foreign partner.\nImmediate Expensing of (Certain) Capital Expenditures\nAnchin Observation: The availability of 100% bonus depreciation for even used assets that are acquired is expected to stimulate mergers and acquisitions activity for capital asset-intensive industries. This provision may in part or more than offset the effect of the limitations on interest deductibility discussed above. Full expensing may also provide significant benefit to private equity buyers in deals structured as asset acquisitions which provide basis step-ups (including to the tax basis of assets eligible for immediate expensing under this provision). Note that sellers may also benefit or ask for higher purchase prices knowing that assets acquired by the purchaser can be immediately expensed even if the buyer is not the first user of such property.\nAlso, since many states already decouple from or modify the current federal bonus depreciation provision, be wary of continued nonconformity which could lead to increased state taxable income.\nAnchin Observation: Some private equity funds are actively looking to modify fund terms with the intent to have less of a management fee (or in some cases, no management fee) with a corresponding increase in the incentive or carried interest allocation. This decision should not be taken lightly or should be carefully discussed and thought out with your various advisors. Choice of entity should also be a consideration and discussion point since these types of deductions continue to be fully deductible if you operate your business as a C corporation.\nPrivate equity, venture capital and mergers & acquisitions professionals have certain tax needs which makes compliance with tax reform slightly more complicated. The summary above highlights provisions that we believe will have the most significant impact to these professionals. We will continue to keep you updated going forward and stand ready as Your Expert Partner to help you plan effectively and to assist you in navigating through the various tax reform changes that may apply to you and your business.\nPlease contact E. George Teixeira or any member of Anchin\u2019s Private Equity Practice for more information on the provisions discussed above.",

She has published many books on the Hindu gods - Sri Krishna Lila, Sri Rama Lila, Sri Shiva Lila, Sri Devi Lila, The Lila of the Sons of Shiva, Hanuman Lila, The Science called Hinduism, Dwarakanatha, Gurudeva, Nitya Yoga (Essays on the Bhagavad Gita), Translation of the Bhagavad Gita etc. Most of these have been published in the US by Inner Traditions, Vermont, under different names. She has conducted classes on the Vedic Way of Life in many countries and gives talks on the Sreemad Bhagavad Gita both in the Ashram and abroad.The Ashram is run by Mohanji who is her brother and is an exemplary Karma Yogi. The Ashram does a lot of charitable work in both Rishikesh and in a small Himalayan village called Gaja in the Garwal Himalayas. About a hundred widows are being given rations and many have also been adopted by various philanthropists all over the world. They also help in running a small village school in Gaja and a Tribal school in the Wynad district of Kerala.In Gaja they distribute shawls, sweaters, blankets etc during the winter and school books to poor children. They are also in the process of replacing the granite roofs of the villagers with tin roofs before the rainy season.At the moment Mataji is very concerned at the total lack of knowledge about Hinduism by the modern generation. She feels that the only way to offset this is to try and see that the future generation is given a basic education in Hinduism along with their ordinary school curriculum. With this in view she has just started a Trust called \u201cAdiveda\u201d which is meant to teach children all about Hinduism starting from primary schools. For this she has written something called the \u201cBasic Tenets of Hinduism\u201d which is being translated into Hindi. Mataji hopes to train teachers and send them to all schools starting with the Hindi speaking states so that the children get a firm foundation of what it means to be a Hindu. After some time she hopes to get translations in different state languages so that it spreads all over India. This is the only way in which we can preserve our national heritage of the Sanatana Dharma which has been given to our country by the great rishis and which will prove a boon to the whole of humanity.",

He had sought permission to travel to the UAE for the Gulf Food Festival from February 15 to 23, and to Pakistan from March 16 to 20 to attend his niece\u2019s wedding, according to reports.\nQureshi was ordered by the court to furnish Rs 2 crore in the form of bank guarantee.\nThe meat exporter, who was arrested in August 2017 after a case was filed against him under the money laundering Act for illegal forex dealings and tax evasion, was granted bail by a Delhi court on December 12 last year.\nOpposing Qureshi's plea in an earlier hearing, the ED contested that \"questioning of his arrest was an abuse of the legal process\" and told the court that there were serious charges of hawala transactions against him.\nQureshi is accused of conducting illegal transactions through Delhi-based hawala operators.

He was the Defence Minister in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government when the Kargil War broke out between India and Pakistan, and India conducted its nuclear tests at Pokhran. Besides that, he also held several ministerial portfolios including communications, industry and railways.\n\"Distressed to learn of the passing of George Fernandes, who served India in many capacities, including as Defence Minister. He epitomised simple living and high thinking. And was a champion of democracy, during the Emergency and beyond. We will all miss him,\" tweeted President Kovind.\nPrime Minister Narendra Modi called Fernandes a \"visionary Railway Minister and great Defence Minister who made India safe and strong\".\n\"George Sahab represented the best of India\u2019s political leadership. Frank and fearless, forthright and farsighted, he made a valuable contribution to our country. He was among the most effective voices for the rights of the poor and marginalised. Saddened by his passing away,\" Prime Minister Modi tweeted.\n\"When we think of George Fernandes, we remember most notably the fiery trade union leader who fought for justice, the leader who could humble the mightiest of politicians at the hustings, a visionary Railway Minister and a great Defence Minister who made India safe and strong,\" he added.\nPrime Minister Modi shared that during his long years in public life, Fernandes \"never deviated from his political ideology.\"\n\"He resisted the Emergency tooth and nail. His simplicity and humility were noteworthy. My thoughts are with his family, friends and lakhs of people grieving. May his soul rest in peace,\" the Prime Minister wrote. (ANI)",

        "raw_content": "HomeHome & Clean Water BlogFeatured3 Types of Home Water Use and Their...\nFebruary 28, 2017 by Aqua Bright in Featured, Max Pack Posts, Reverse Osmosis Posts, Water Science Posts, Water Softeners Posts, Water Treatment Posts, Whole Home Filtration Posts 799\nThere are multiple different uses for water ranging from various industrial uses to the sustaining of all life on our planet. Within the a residential setting, water either enters the home plumbing from the city water supply or from a well, and it can be used for various functions. Since some of these functions can affect health and quality of life, it\u2019s important to know what the level of treatment each type of water use requires. This will help to preserve the home in better condition and make the people who live in it happier. The following are the 3 types of water use and their appropriate treatment:\nUtility Grade Water\nUtility Grade water is used for watering your lawn and garden. It\u2019s only a step down from industrial grade water which is used in labs and factories. Since this water it not intended to be consumed by people and since it doesn\u2019t negatively affect any of the objects it touches, it does not necessarily need any type of treatment, unless there is a high concentration of hazardous chemicals in the water that can pass through to vegetables in your garden. For the most part, nature can do the job of absorbing the water and not be affected by normal water contaminants.\nWorking Grade Water\nWorking Grade water is used for bathing, washing clothes and cleaning. This is the type of water that comes out of non-drinking taps or faucets in your home and it\u2019s the water that runs through water-using appliances, such as the water heater, dishwasher, refrigerator, clothes washer, and any appliance with its own water line. In the Phoenix area we have some of the hardest and most contaminated water in the country.\n\u201cHard\u201d water means that the water has too much calcium and magnesium, which is primarily responsible for soap scum and scale. Soap scum is created when calcium and magnesium deposits mix with soap to form an insoluble curd. Scale is when calcium and magnesium mix with other elements to form deposits or blockage on the inside of pipes, plumbing and water compartments of water-using appliances. Calcium and magnesium deposits may also be seen on fridge water dispensers and the shower head, causing blockage and spraying. When you wash your hands and body with hard water, the water leaves behind these and other contaminants which dry the skin and clogs pores. Homes that have well water commonly have too much iron, which leads to rust-colored rings and staining on bathroom fixtures. If you see rust-colored stains and you have city water, then it\u2019s because the contaminants in the water are causing your plumbing to deteriorate.\nWorking Grade water requires water softening and whole home filtration. Water softeners remove the calcium and magnesium from the water and filtration does the rest. There are water softeners that are not whole home water filters, but any device that is labeled a whole home filter includes softening as well as the filtering out of other contaminants besides calcium and magnesium. It\u2019s called a whole home water filter because it\u2019s installed at the point where the water supply enters the home plumbing. (Also called a point of entry or POE filter). Get the Water Max by Hague for water softening and whole home filtration in the Phoenix area. It\u2019s the best product on the market for Phoenix water problems.\nLife Support Water\nLife Support water is used for drinking and cooking and requires the highest quality water treatment. Reverse Osmosis systems are used to accomplish this. A Reverse Osmosis (RO) system is installed just before the water dispenser, most commonly in the kitchen. It is also called a point of use or POU filter to distinguish it from whole home filtration (described above). While a whole home filtration device can filter out contaminants that are 10-30 microns in size, a Reverse Osmosis system will filter out anything down to 0.0001 microns, meaning the water is practically pure, which is what you want it to be when you\u2019re drinking it or preparing food with it.\nPhoenix and other cities in the Valley of the Sun have water that tastes dirty because of the amount of sediment. You may have noticed how dirty it tastes or you\u2019ve become too used to it; but it should have no taste at all, and once you try treated water, you\u2019ll never go back. Your options for getting life support water include bottled water or home water treatment. The most economical of the two, and the best option for planet Earth is home water treatment.\nLearn more about the Max Pack, which combines the WaterMax and H6000 Reverse Osmosis system. The WaterMax is both a softener and whole home filtration device, so when it is combined with the H6000 RO, you get complete water treatment, suitable for all types of water use.\nwater softener system July 26, 2017 7:03 pm",

Why the urgence to get a plane to cross the Channel?\nThere is a train that crosses the channel at high speed, and very close to Nantes.\nIt is very uncanny. An innecessary risk.\nThe thing is getting to Cardiff , Carlos. The train is great if you are going from Paris to London . Onward connections are not too easy.\nIt seems that one of the agents involved in the transfer wanted to make a gift of the flight to Sala . It seems to have been done in a hurry and the plane used want the right one for a night flight across the Channel.\nI suspected as much and without wishing to speak ill of the dead, there are some pretty rotten stories going around about the pilot, David Ibbotson.\nMany say he didn't have the experience for that kind of flight.\nYes, this I understand. But still I am wondering about the urgence to arrive quickly. After all, the weather conditions were far for being acceptable. And the late young Sala was not a surgeon that needed to be in the place so rapidly.\nBy the way , and nothing to do with this thread, Cardiff was the place where we argentineans purchase coal for our gas provision, more than a Century ago.\nI didn't know this guy previously to his tragic death, but I thought about him a lot since hearing the news.\nToo young to go and in such unfortunate circumstances.\n\u201c...

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s great to watch other people get ahead in life and experience good financial health, but it\u2019s also easy to feel left behind if you\u2019re unable to do the same. Have you ever wondered how your brother was able to buy a brand new car with nothing more than cash? Is it frustrating to watch your neighbor pay off her mortgage early? If these thoughts go through your mind, the most likely source of your frustrations is your own perceived inability to get into solid financial shape. I understand where you\u2019re coming from and I\u2019d like to share three financial life hacks to help give you a boost.\nFinancial Life Hack #1: Stop Wasting Your Money!\nBefore we get too far into the weeds, it\u2019s important to get one fact straight: consumers in the U.S. waste a ton of money each month. For example, the Bureau of Labor Statistics recently found that American households spend an average of $3,154 a year on dining out. That\u2019s $263 a month. I don\u2019t mean to nitpick, especially since many parents and working professionals are just too busy to cook their own meals at home, but the costs of eating out clearly add up in a big way. When he ran for president in 2012, Mitt Romney pledged to apply a litmus test to federal spending: \u201cIs a government program so critical that it\u2019s worth borrowing money from China to pay for it?\u201d Apply the same litmus test to your own personal spending habits. Is dinner at a swanky restaurant worth using money that could otherwise go toward your mortgage principal that month? Are you wasting money each month in other areas? Have a closer look at your spending habits and see if there are ways you can save money by reducing any unnecessary expenses.\nFinancial Life Hack #2: Save Now, Buy the New Car Using Cash Later\nNow that we\u2019ve covered the first step toward getting into better financial shape, let\u2019s have a look at how your friends, family members, and neighbors are able to buy stuff in ways that you currently can\u2019t. We\u2019ll start with the new car. The average monthly payment on a new vehicle last year was $479. As of 2016, the average car loan was $30,032 with an average length of 68 months. That\u2019s almost six years. Instead of throwing $479 a month at a car loan for six years, imagine that you contributed $479 to an investment account every month for six years and earned a hypothetical annual return of 8%. You would end up with $43,973. That would leave you with more than enough money to buy the new car using cash instead of taking out a loan and paying interest for six years, and you\u2019d still have enough cash left over to save or make additional purchases.\nFinancial Life Hack #3: Reduce the Length of Your Mortgage Term\nHere\u2019s the third financial life hack: if you pay an extra $100 toward your mortgage principal every month, you will eliminate years from the life of the mortgage. I\u2019ll elaborate: let\u2019s say you take out a $400,000 mortgage with an annual interest rate of 4.5%. Over the next 30 years, you will end up paying $729,627. However, the extra $100 payments toward the principal each month will ultimately allow you to save $35,400 and reduce the mortgage repayment period by two years and nine months. Let\u2019s say you\u2019re feeling motivated and add an extra $200 to the mortgage principal every month. Doing this reduces the mortgage term by five years and saves you $63,491. If you\u2019re able and feeling brave, you could pay an extra $300 to the mortgage every month. That reduces the mortgage term by six years and eleven months, and it saves you $86,409 in the long run. Don\u2019t believe me? Check out Bankrate\u2019s Additional Payment Calculator to see how this strategy plays out for yourself.\nThose are just three ways to get ahead of the game and into good financial shape. Going above and beyond the call of duty when it comes to paying your bills will probably require a great deal of sacrifice and discipline, but it\u2019s important to get rid of your debts as quickly as possible in order to have the resources necessary to save for life\u2019s major purchases, as well as retirement. The decision to make wise financial choices today will increase the likelihood that you will experience financial freedom in the years to come. However, it\u2019s important to find the will to make that decision in the first place.",

        "raw_content": "Richard Nixon unsuccessfully tried to pass a version of Milton Friedman\u2019s plan. Nixon\u2019s Democratic opponent in the 1972 presidential election, George McGovern, also suggested a guaranteed annual income. Milton\u2019s basic guaranteed income proposal was well thought out and substantially different than simply the welfare state. Our welfare system has seriously altered human behavior as it pays people not to work and pays others per child, which creates incentives to have children to gain more money. The welfare system has done much to alter human behavior and destroy the family structure.\nMilton\u2019s proposal was to flip the process to create incentives rather than destroy them. It is ironic that the one president who tried to implement this plan was taken down by the Watergate scandal. The proposal passed Congress and the Democrats stopped it in the Senate under the pretense that they wanted more money.\nAnother important aspect of Friedman\u2019s proposal was that there were no strings attached. The government did not attempt to tell people what they could buy or do with the money. Whenever government gets involved, they typically screw things up pretty good. Driving to work, I see signs offering cash for diabetes materials that people on welfare get from government. Others sell their food stamps. When you just hand people things, they will alter their behavior to get rid of them if if they do not need them. Milton\u2019s proposal eliminated the government red tape, yet instilled the spirit to raise oneself up out of poverty. This type of system made sense.\nTags: Guaranteed Basic Income, Milton Friedman, Negative Income Tax, Welfare\n\u00ab Sometimes the Impossible Becomes Possible\nFed Admits it is the World\u2019s Central Bank \u2013 not just the USA Central Bank \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "The spanish artist and designer who designed Stone Age Folk.\nThe Architectural Pavilion\nStone Age folk is presented in the form of an architectural pavilion at the Palazzo Serbelloni. The installation also features two merry go rounds which allow visitors to interact with the material.\nThe installation showcases tribal masks, whimsical characters and faces made out of quartz, stain glass and metal which are inspired by the natural environment and traditional folklore.\nThe frame for the installation is made out of metal, which divides the pavilion. The quartz and stain glass are fitted into these frames to form Jaime\u2019s signature characters.\nThe stained glass and quartz come together to make a beautiful combination.The installation is a kaleidoscopic structure made out of Caesarstone\u2019s quartz, stained glass and metal.\nFurniture with a face\nThe first installation of Stone Age Folk was showcased at the Interior Design Show at Toronto where Jaime displayed seven pieces of furniture featuring his tables and cabinets having characters on them.\nThe Clown Cabinet\nThis is one of the seven pieces of furniture designed by Jaime Hayon for the first installation of Stone Age Folk. The cabinet is made of Caesarstone`s quartz and features the face of a clown giving it an interesting twist.\nSketches of Stone Age Folk\nThese are the sketches of the architectural pavilion and the furniture pieces which depict the details of the structure and the pieces of furniture.\nSaif Faisal\u2019s design practice meets at the crossroads of Minimalism and Essentialism\nStone Age Folk, an installation by the spanish artist and designer Jaime Hayon in collaboration with one of the leading Quartz manufacturers, Caesarstone, takes visitors into the land of folklore. He creates a kaleidoscopic work that enables visitors to playfully interact with the material in a fresh and undiluted way. Displayed at the Miami Design Week earlier in 2017, the installation shows impressive stone marquetry, metal crafting and use of high-end stained glass window techniques, which are a mark of mastery over craft.\nA product that induces emotions, Stone Age Folk is a personification of the artist\u2019s own imaginative cosmos. The installation builds on a fantastical world, drawing inspiration from flora, fauna and folklore of different cultures ranging from Hungarian myths to African tribal influences.\nJaime Hayon, a designer by profession, combined quartz, stained glass and metal to develop Stone Age Folk. The installation at the Milan Design Week followed on from an exhibition at the Interior Design Show (IDS) in Toronto. In Stone Age Folk, Jaime transformed the Palazzo Serbelloni, a neoclassical palace built in the 18th century, into an architectural pavilion by combining over 48 variations of Caesarstone colours with metal and stained glass.\nThe Untold Folktale\nOn entering the Palazzo, one is welcomed with Hayon\u2019s signature tribal mask, constructed in the form of playful carousels. On stepping further inside, one is greeted with a kaleidoscopic structure that takes up most of the space in the ballroom. The pavilion is divided using metal frames and methodically built into triangular, circular and linear compositions, from which the quartz and glass emerge. It also features Jaime\u2019s signature smiling characters that pop up throughout the space alongside joyful carousel wall panels, lights and tables.\nThe installation also features two merry-go-rounds within the pavilion alongside a series of play-oriented furniture. These include cabinets, tables and panels made from the highly durable quartz reflecting a unique style, such as clown-faced cabinets and bird-like dining tables, along with smaller-scale side tables featuring animated characters. Along with the merry-go-rounds, the ensemble allows the visitors to interact with the versatility of shapes, colours and textures in the installation from all angles.\nStone Age Folk is a personification of the artist\u2019s own imaginative cosmos. The installation builds on a fantastical world, drawing inspiration from flora, fauna and folklore of different cultures \u2013 from Hungarian myths to African tribal influences.\nThe Miracle Material: Quartz\nCaesarstone\u2019s quartz material, in which The Stone Age Folk has been made, is composed of 93% quartz which is combined with polyester resins and pigments to form non-porous slabs. Quartz assembles together quickly, with high resistance and elasticity and has the ability to go into any form and therefore is easier to work with in comparison to marble. The new technology and machinery enables it to be cut sharply and combine it to perfection. But in this case, it is very fascinating to see how Jaime uses it on an architectural or spatial scale.\nStone Age Folk is an interactive installation that enables visitors to view a folktale which is smoothly blended with the materiality of quartz, playfulness, craft and cultural references. Every face and every character is different giving the installation its uniqueness.\nFind out more about this unique installation and Jamie Hayon's work here.\nPhotography By:Tom Mannion",

The was all part of an amazing week called OpSail 2012 Virginia, it also commemorates the 200th anniversary of the War Of 1812 and coincided with Norfolk's Harbor fest. We ran out to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, Thimble Shoals, Fort Monroe and the mouth of the Elizabeth River to see it from many vantage points. I think we were the only jet skis in the parade. Ha! There were hundreds of boats big and small, private and military from all over the U.S. and world, the weather was perfect and the sights phenomenal. We were both glad we took the day of to witness the event on the water. The last time any thing like this took place was 12 years ago, I watched it from my boat back then. I took very many pictures and it is hard to choose which ones to put up, after many hours of editing, here are some of my pictures from the event. OpSail 2012 next goes to Baltimore, New York and Boston. If you get a chance, get by the water and check it out.\nFantastic photos.Very impressive in full sail.And the crew standing in the arms,Way cool !!!",

        "raw_content": "4. Facebook's executive trainwreck\nFacebook had even worse press than Amazon this week, thanks mainly to a devastating New York Times article on Wednesday.\nWhat they're saying: The focus of the story is the manner in which Facebook's top two executives \u2014 Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg \u2014 react to bad news. Rather than deal with it directly, they tend, in the words of the article's headline, to \"delay, deny and deflect.\" The conclusion: \"Bent on growth, the pair ignored warning signs and then sought to conceal them from public view.\"\nFacebook also hired Definers, an opposition-research specialist in Washington, in a move that ended up backfiring spectacularly. Zuckerberg now denies (implausibly) that either he or Sandberg had ever heard of Definers before the Times article appeared.\nFacebook shares closed at $139.53 on Friday, down 36% from their high of $218.62 in July, less than 4 months ago. That's a loss of $228 billion in market capitalization and a sign that the market has lost faith in Facebook's executive leadership.\nZuckerberg's attempt on Thursday to mollify the market and the press was predictably unsuccessful.\nAxios' Chief Financial Correspondent Felix Salmon made the case in April that Zuckerberg is no longer the right person to lead Facebook. His product and engineering skills are prodigious yet also irrelevant, and by Zuckerberg's own admission, neither he nor Sandberg are fully aware of what's going on internally.\nFacebook's board has neither the ability nor the inclination to fire Zuckerberg. But that doesn't mean he can't resign as CEO. At any point, he is free to hand the reins over to someone with a better intuitive understanding of why governments and users around the world are so upset at the company (hint: patent applications like this one don't help) and what needs to be done to fix the problem.\nThe bottom line: Facebook has lurched from crisis to crisis, and it has managed none of those crises well. It's now clear who bears the blame for that.\nThe millionaire funding the campaign to break up Facebook\nFacebook, regulators search for answers after big hack\nSecurity breach is new ground for Facebook",

        "raw_content": "The last time I discussed X Fund, the VC firm's co-founders were in the midst of a skirmish that had included \"employee firings, name-calling, bank account freezes and even a restraining order request.\" It really appeared that the only question was if X Fund wanted to be buried or cremated.\nBut X Fund is back, after Patrick Chung and Hugo Van Vuuren privately settled their legal differences. Chung has remained with X Fund, which quietly secured some new LP commitments and has added a new partner. Van Vuuren has moved on, with a source saying that he's mostly traveling and advising enterprise venture fund Work-Bench.\nWhat: X Fund focuses on seed-stage investments in startups based on research done at universities like Stanford and Harvard.\nFund details: X Fund 2 originally raised $100 million, but later got slashed in half. Chung says it's now a bit over $70 million, thanks in part to a new commitment from UK-based Future Planet Capital. Same investment period, which expires at the end of 2019.\nPartner details: The new addition is Brandon Farwell, who first met Chung while the former was with DFJ and the latter with NEA. Farwell's most recent stop with with the much-maligned Rothenberg Ventures (no, he and Mike still aren't on speaking terms), but says his long history with Chung got him comfortable entering another situation that has major hair on its history. The pair also say they are equal partners, something that became the crux of the dispute between Chung and Van Vuuren. Chung adds that there could be a third partner added, as X Fund is seeking someone on the ground at Harvard (where Van Vuuren used to roam), although that position also could become more scout-like.\n\u2022 Qu\u00e9? Sarah Sanders yesterday was asked about the confusion over White House policy on Puerto Rico's municipal debt, to which she basically echoed Mick Mulvaney: \"There's a process for how to deal with Puerto Rico's debt, and it will have to go through that process.\"\nChau: One firm that bet big on Puerto Rico bonds was MatlinPatterson, but Bloomberg reports that it's now unwinding its entire distressed debt biz after a major investor bailed.\nExpert voices: Axios asked five experts to weigh in on what is needed to rebuild.\n\u2022 Power play: Investors in natural gas and renewables are sweating an Energy Dept proposal that could effectively improve price competitiveness of coal and nuclear, although Rick Perry still needs to win over regulators. More energy:\nPuerto Rico's governor is intrigued by Elon Musk's suggestion that Tesla could help rebuild the island's power grid via solar and battery systems.\nSome activists are upset that shale drilling companies have been tying executive bonuses to new drilling outlays, when the extra supply dampens prices and, arguably, shareholder returns.

Have a great weekend!\nThe Honest Company, the all-natural home products maker co-founded by Jessica Alba, is raising up to $75 million in Series E funding at a share price that is 57% lower than its Series D round two years ago. The deal would slash Honest Co.'s valuation to below $1 billion (post-money), after having been worth around $1.7 billion the last go-around.\nWhy it's the BFD: Because this is the headline risk of a consumer-facing company aggressively touting its unicorn valuation on magazine covers. That said, down-rounds sometimes can prove beneficial in the long run.\nPrimary source: Honest's share authorization form, filed last week in Delaware (via CBInsights)\nWhat happened? The devaluation is born of three things: (1) The disappearance of Unilever as a possible acquirer, when it instead went with Dollar Shave Club (for direct-to-consumer) and Seventh Generation (for \"green\" household goods). (2) A controversy over certain product ingredients, and a subsequent CEO switch that saw the operational departure of co-founder Brian Lee. (3) Irrational/aggressive exuberance in prior pricing, enhanced by mutual fund money.\nBonus blurb: One of those mutual fund backers was Fidelity, which still hadn't marked down its Honest Co. shares as of its late September valuation report. Keep that in mind next time you read a breathless story about how Fidelity or another mutual fund has revalued its shares (up or down) in a VC-backed startup in the absence of a new financing.\n\ud83d\ude91 Visterra, a Cambridge, Mass.-based drugmaker whose lead candidate is focused on influenza, has raised $23.6 million in new Series C funding.

Vetter, Dr. Daniel Rapp, Thomas Otto, Gunther Strothe, Wolfgang Kerkhoff, Christian Schmid. (Photo: Business Wire)\nScheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2018, the building is planned to begin operations in early 2019. Expected to cost approximately 70 million euro ($79 million), it is part of the total investment strategy announced by the company in September 2015, and will constitute an important element in the overall Schuetzenstrasse facility rebuilding concept for modernization and expansion.\nVetter Completes Schuetzenstrasse Multi-Functional Building on Schedule\nUpon completion, the seven story building will cover a total of 8,000 sq. meters (86,000 sq. ft),\nand include in its core a cleanroom with supportive media systems. Additionally, it will contain the site\u2019s central material preparation; office space for the production staff as well as a staff canteen with roof garden. The applied technology of the cleanroom will be dedicated to the filling of bulk syringes and designed to be compatible for the filling of sensitive drugs such as biologics and opthalmics. Syringes prepared in the bulk process offer a number of customization options that are tailored to substance and primary packaging material components, and offer customizable low silicone levels and thus, process flexibility. Another central technological element of the cleanroom will be the implementation of an improved restricted access barrier system (RABS) concept to combine the advantages of isolator and RABS technology. The core of this innovative approach is a uniquely fast, by today\u2019s standards, 3-hour cycle and fully automated decontamination of the cleanroom using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).\n\u201cThis addition to our Schuetzenstrasse site is an exciting chapter in our company\u2019s history and will again support Vetter\u2019s target to offer its customers the adequate high manufacturing quality for their high value drugs\u201d, said Vetter Managing Director Thomas Otto. \u201cAttaining this high level of quality is of particular significance to Vetter as it represents one of our core customer relations value propositions.\"\nSource: http://www.vetter-pharma.com/en/",

        "raw_content": "The distance between the ICTY and us\nThe ICTY is monumentally important, but it forgot its true constituents. The recent, appeal judgments in the Gotovina and Peri\u0161i\u0107 cases, the struggle for a common narrative about the traumatic past of the region\n05/03/2013 - Refik Hod\u017ei\u0107\nIn response to my esteemed opponent in this debate and other commentators, I maintain that the notion how ICTY has not contributed to reconciliation in the former Yugoslavia because \u201cit has not invested enough time and energy in explaining its work to local communities\u201d, or because it \u201cindicted only 161 persons\u201d is flawed. Although I continue to have reservations about the notion of the debate, I believe that the Tribunal\u2019s failings in this respect come from the fact that the ICTY\u2019s decision-makers and their political mentors have never seen themselves as responsible to the of people in the former Yugoslavia who in theory were the institution\u2019s main constituents.\nEager to stay out of \u201cpolitics\u201d and to \u201clet judgments speak for themselves\u201d, Tribunal\u2019s decision-makers never saw the need to properly report to their true constituents on crucial matters like the logic behind its prosecutions strategy or the Tribunal\u2019s so called sentencing policy.\nFootnotes and tectonic reverberations\nThe recent appeal judgments in Gotovina and Peri\u0161i\u0107 cases beacon as examples of this \u201civory tower syndrome\u201d. They both include seemingly technical, but significant shifts in Tribunal\u2019s jurisprudence, with reasoning whose legal logic can be traced only by those most determined to mine for the elusive meaning in the footnotes, and willing to make a leap of faith to exclude what appear to be obvious political motives.\nThese judgments had tectonic reverberations in the region, with real and destructive implications on the \u201cprocess of reconciliation\u201d. And while the virulent debates about \u201cvictorious nations and just causes\u201d, \u201chistoric injustices\u201d, \u201cpolitical conspiracies and trade offs\u201d rage on between Serbs, Croats and Bosnians as they try to make sense of these verdicts, one voice remains thunderously silent. That of the ICTY.\nAnd this is not an exception but a rule: Tribunal\u2019s judges have been and will always be more interested in what authors in international law journals have to say about their judgments than the people to whose lasting peace they are supposed to be contributing. At best, they\u2019d leave it to Tribunal\u2019s outreach program to \u201csell\u201d their decisions to the affected communities.\nHowever, the unwillingness to consider how judges\u2019 work impacts Tribunal\u2019s mandate cannot be compensated by outreach, especially as it is understood and practiced by most international courts \u2013 as a loose mix of public relations, de-contextualized dissemination of information and endless series of conferences.\nI still believe the ICTY is monumentally important for its contribution in establishing the responsibility for and illuminating the circumstances of some of the most serious crimes committed in the former Yugoslavia. But in a sobering realization, I have come to accept that ICTY is, unfortunately, not OUR institution, but just another UN body. Its mandate of contributing to a lasting peace in the region is seen through a very different lens from ours by those who shape its course and decisions.\nWe will have to see its work through, thankful for the good things it has done and hoping it will not irreparably undermine its credibility. Then we\u2019ll have to sift through its record for pieces of truth that can help us as we continue to struggle for a common narrative about the traumatic past. But this will have to be done with cold, objective and comprehensive acceptance of the distance between the ICTY and us, people it was supposed to serve.",

Climate Cops reported that, over half term, kids spend more than four hours than they usually would watching the TV.\nOn their website Npower have a mission chart print out to give the kids to encourage them even more, so why not have a go and see how many hours your children can do.\nIf that doesn\u2019t take your fancy, what about a trip to a museum?\nA number of top attractions have recently been longlisted for the Guardian Family Friendly Museum Award, a prize judged by families.\nThe newspaper said that parents searching for fun holiday activities can try London's Geffrye Museum. Being based just minutes from the City of London it is easily reached by public transport. With free entry to all 11 rooms and the gardens there is plenty to do with no cost at all.\nAnother museum to try new activities at is Surrey's Haslemere Educational Museum, a natural history museum that contains more than 240,000 specimens from across the world.\nSee here for Visit Britain\u2019s great list of the top free museums in Britain: http://www.visitbritain.com/en/Things-to-do/Culture/Free-museums.html\nAnd finally, why not try walking; it can be great fun and it\u2019s great exercise for the whole family.\nA favourite of mine is Geocaching, which is a great way to spend a long walk.\nGeocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS-enabled devices.

        "raw_content": "Image caption Some 17,500 children have had their mental health referrals rejected over the past three years\nMental health campaigners have called for an urgent review into why so many young people in Scotland are being turned down for specialist treatment.\nMore than 7,000 children and adolescents had their mental health referrals rejected last year.\nThe Scottish Association for Mental Health (SAMH) described the figure as \"astonishing\".\nThe Scottish government has already said it will commission a review into rejected referrals.\nBut SAMH said the issue needed to be addressed as quickly as possible because young people were \"waiting now to get help and support\".\n'Inundated with calls'\nThe charity's Jo Anderson said 17,500 people had been turned away from receiving Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) support over the past three years.\nShe added: \"That's an astonishing figure, and we don't know what happens to them after they've been turned away. We don't know whether they received any other support.\n\"In the last few weeks of the campaign we've been running, we've been inundated with calls from parents who're in that situation and their child has been rejected from receiving a CAMHS service.\n\"They haven't been signposted anywhere else - that's a very worrying picture.\"\nReferral rejection 'made me feel even more worthless'\nCaitlin Wyllie-Quinn, 20, a student from Irvine, had a difficult transition to secondary school.\nBullying left her isolated and very down, crying all the time.\nShe got some initial help from the local Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service but after leaving therapy she went downhill rapidly.\nHer GP made another referral to CAMHS but this time it was rejected. Caitlin was told that because she was not suicidal or self-harming, her case was not serious enough.\n\"If the person doing the assessment had asked me if I was suicidal or self-harming I would have answered yes to both those questions, but basically I was refused help because they didn't have the capability to assess me properly,\" she said.\n\"I was at a real low point and I felt that getting referred to CAMHS was some sort of light at the end of the tunnel and finally maybe getting some help.\n\"For that to be stripped away from me made me feel even more worthless and just made things so much worse for me.\"\nThe NHS in Scotland provides mental health services for children and young people with a wide range of mental health problems including anxiety, behaviour problems, depression and early onset psychosis.\nThe Scottish government's mental health strategy commits it to carrying out reviews into school counselling and rejected child and adolescent mental health service referrals.\nIts mental health minister, Maureen Watt, said the reviews would happen \"soon\", and would allow improvements to be made to the system.\nMs Anderson said this was encouraging, but added: \"We really urge that to be quick and thorough because there are young people waiting now to get help and support.\n\"It might be that the CAMHS service isn't appropriate for them, but we simply don't know what the problem is.\"\nMeanwhile, statistics published on Tuesday also showed that a waiting time target for people to receive specialist mental health treatment has again been missed.\nThe Scottish government has had a target in place since 2014 for 90% of patients to be seen within 18 weeks of referral for mental health support.\nBut the target has never been met nationally - with the latest figures showing that 83.6% of children and adolescents, and 73.7% of adults, were seen within the required timescale between January and March of this year.\nI'm clear that we must continue to reduce waiting times and I will not be satisfied until our target is met sustainably\nMaureen Watt, Mental health minister\nAt the end of March, there were 6,932 children and young people across Scotland waiting for help from CAMHS, up from 6,359 at the end of December, according to the NHS statistics.\nAt the same time, there were 20,952 adults waiting for treatment, compared to 20,195 in December.\nAverage waiting times varied dramatically across the country, with 10 NHS boards meeting the target for CAMHS treatment but only three health boards meeting it for adult psychological care.\nThe figures also showed that 74 children and young people starting their treatment had been waiting more than a year to be seen.\nNHS Grampian met the waiting time target for just 45.2% of young people, while in NHS Lothian the target was met for 47.8% of youngsters\nAnd in the NHS Forth Valley area, only 40% of adults starting psychological treatment between January and March were seen within 18 weeks, with an average wait of 25 weeks.\nA spokesman for the Scottish Children's Services Coalition (SCSC) said research has suggested 10% of children aged between five and 16 have a clinically diagnosable mental health problem.\n'Range of measures'\nPointing to a \"clear postcode lottery\" when it comes to treatment, he added: \"We are deeply concerned about what is happening to the more than a fifth of children and young people not accepted for treatment.\n\"There is a need for an urgent inquiry to ascertain why these young people are being rejected for treatment and what is happening to them.\"\nMs Watt, the mental health minster, said the number of health boards which had met the waiting time target for young people had increased from seven to 10 since the end of 2016.\nShe added: \"However, I'm clear that we must continue to reduce waiting times and I will not be satisfied until our target is met sustainably.\n\"Our recently published 10-year strategy for mental health sets out a range of measures that focus on prevention and early intervention to meet the mental health needs of children and young people, backed by \u00a3150m of funding.\n\"We will also soon commission reviews into school counselling and rejected child and adolescent mental health service referrals, as a foundation for making further improvements.\"\nYoung people 'fear stigma' if they ask for mental-health help\nMental health of young carers highlighted in study\nScottish schools 'lacking' mental health provision",

We're just asking them to undo the damage they did in 2011.\"\nThree key points, organizers said are 1) Expanding the number of early voting days back to 14 and allowing 12 hours per day while giving election supervisors more flexibility in opening new polling locations. 2) Reinstitute the 75-word cap on constitutional amendments proposed by the legislature, just as citizen-led initiatives are capped. 3) Voters should be able to update their voter registration address on Election Day if they move from one county to another, just as they could prior to 2011.\nThe bill (HB 7013) approved yesterday with a vote of 118-1 doesn't go far enough, however:\nIt allows early-voting polling places at more kinds of sites, like fairgrounds, civic centers and convention centers. And it sets a 75-word limit on proposed initial ballot summaries to constitutional amendments.\nThe bill also restores the possibility of early voting on the Sunday before Election Day, when blacks often vote after church in a tradition known as \"souls to the polls.\"]\n[House Democrats said they wanted more in the measure, citing online voter registration, automatic voter registration upon renewal of driver's licenses and a path to restoring felons' right to vote.\nBut the bill as passed is \"a good first step,\" said Janet Cruz of Tampa, the top Democrat on the House Ethics and Elections Subcommittee.\nRep. Dwayne Taylor, a Daytona Beach Democrat, did complain that the bill contains no money to allow local supervisors of elections to get better equipment and hire more staff for longer early voting at more places.\n\"We've got to allocate those dollars because they're going to need them,\" he said.\nA companion bill (SB 600) is now in the Senate and covers many of the same provisions as the House bill.\nAt the Free The Vote rally at the Capitol, Senators spoke out against the election problems as well as Rick Scott's handling of them:\nSenate Ethics and Elections committee member Sen. Jeff Clemens, D-Lake Worth, voiced his frustrations at the embarrassment of the 2012 elections at the Awake the State rally.\n\u201cWhat we are doing is not working and it didn\u2019t work in 2012 when we had six, seven hour lines for people to be able to vote in the state of Florida,\u201d Clemens said. \u201cThat is nothing less than criminal and frankly it disgusts me to see people walking around saying it wasn\u2019t that much of a problem as we\u2019ve heard from certain members of the House and certain members of the Senate.\u201d\nRallies were also held in Palm Beach County, Fort Myers, Vero Beach, Jacksonville, Tampa, and other locations.\nFlorida Enjoying National Recognition As Ground Zero Of Election Disasters (Again)\nStatewide \"Free The Vote\" Rallies In Florida Tomorrow: Find One Near You\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 03/06/2013 at 02:29 PM in Awake The State, Election Laws, Florida Legislature, Progress Florida, Voter Suppresion | Permalink | Comments (0)\nTags: Awake The State, Election Laws, Florida Legislature, Progress Florida, Voter Suppression\nTomorrow, as the Florida Legislative Session begins, Awake The State \"Free The Vote\" rallies will be taking place all over Florida to call attention to the election laws that made us a laughingstock, and made voting extremely difficult, if not impossible for many last November.\nIn spite of Gov.

Just Ask Florida!\nThe horrors of reality for just a few of the many in Florida who don't have health insurance in graphic detail are just one part of the story, and it will likely only get worse as Florida has just been given the go ahead for privatizing Medicaid, provided that it's done with \"transparency.\" If it weren't such a serious undertaking with potentially deadly consequences, the talk of such \"transparency\" would be a sick joke, given the state's more recent track record, but in Rick Scott's Florida, Inc., there's nothing funny about it. Truth may be stranger than fiction, but in this case it's dark enough to be the plot of a Stephen King novel. Given that King is a part-time Florida resident himself, I would imagine he might agree:\nTake a man who ran a company that was dealt the largest fine in history for Medicare fraud, and who made a career out of preventing people from obtaining affordable health care, elect him as governor of a state chock-full of retirees, not to mention Republican and Tea Party lawmakers, give him free reign to run the state \"like a business\" and oh, while you're at it, put him in charge of privatizing Medicaid after he spent most of his time in office saying no to the same until he he was able to control it. So yes, truth is worse than fiction. After all, while he fights against your ability to get good health care without going bankrupt to do so, he pays less than $400 a year for his own.\nNice benefits, if you can get them. But you can't. You aren't Rick Scott, or one of his puppets in the legislature. Membership has its privileges.\nOf course, the Mother Jones piece is only the beginning of the story, and many chapters are yet to be written. We're almost two years out from the next election and the chance to be rid of Scott and those Republicans. The only problem is, at the rate they're going, we may not be afforded that opportunity. If you take a look at some of what they tried to do in last year's legislative session, but failed, look at this year's agenda and you'll soon discover they haven't given up hope.\nThey botched the 2012 election in spite of rewriting the election laws, but now with promises of \"reform\" they probably won't make that mistake again if we let them. Anyone who pays attention to the Republican-Tea Party \"business model\" knows that \"reform\" has an entirely different meaning for them than it does for the rest of the world. (They're already taking \"field trips\" to voting equipment centers.) But there's lots to come between now and that election. Here's just a few of the things they've put on the table this year:\nGiving Scott more power to pick judges. Today the House will take up a measure that gives the governor more control over judicial nominating commissions. Last year a similar measure passed in the House, but failed in the Senate.\n\"Is our children learning yet?\" Much like \"reform,\" the phrase \"parental choice\" isn't what it sounds like when it comes to schools. Last year, the controversial \"parent trigger\" bill failed after a tough fight. Unfortunately it's back this year, and Democrats say this time they can't stop it. As if he hadn't done enough damage to education here already, the Jeb Bush charter school privatization model will take root with Republican's help. Any hope of students learning how to do something other than take tests is now merely a dream for previously hopeful parents. Ka-ching.\nEthics? Again, not what you think it means. Delay the time frame to step out of elected office and immediately into a private lobbying firm? The Senate is all for it.......no, just kidding! And again, Ka-ching.\nDomestic partnership rights? Sorry, you'll likely have to find a state that has moved on from the stone age. But those in Florida who speak out against it \"pray for you.\" So there's that....\nCourt orders are nothing to sneeze at....unless you're in Orange County. In that case, they are ignored, especially if they involve a bill giving workers paid sick time. Spoiler alert, it's not exactly the \"happiest place on earth\" to work.\nA wage you can live on? No, Orange County also says \"no\" to a living wage for the trouble of working while sick. (But bless you!)\nThe low cost of doing business. Tax giveaways to those \"job creators\" whether they create them or not, and if so, whether they pay a living wage if you're sick or not? You can probably bank on it, in spite of Rick Scott's track record.\nLike clean water? Too bad, you're out of luck again this year, and for years to come unless things change. Take it from former Governor Bob Graham.\nState Parks? Ditto.\nScott's goodie bag: The \"Families First\" budget. Yes, he's up to his old tricks what with his fuzzy math and education shell games, and Democrats are crying foul.\nBut then it's what we've come to expect from Rick Scott: Very little.\nOf course it goes without saying, this year we'll probably see plenty of bills that allow abortions for no one, but guns for everybody, because that's just how the Republican-Tea Party rolls these days.\nThose are just a scant few of the items up for this year. I've barely scratched the surface.\nNow about that \"election law reform......\"\nOn March 5th, find an Awake The State \"Free The Vote Rally\" near you, here.\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 02/20/2013 at 03:46 PM in Affordable Care Act, Awake The State, Election 2012, Election 2014, Florida Legislature, Medicaid, Republican Party Of Florida, Rick Scott, Tea Party | Permalink | Comments (1)\nTags: Election 2014, Election Laws, Florida Legislature, Medicaid, Mother Jones, Republicans, Rick Scott, Tea Party\nAwake The State Rallies Planned For Opening Of 2012 Legislative Session\nAwake The State will be holding rallies across Florida tomorrow timed with the opening of the 2012 Florida Legislative session.The rallies are protests aimed at Florida Governor Rick Scott and his attack on the middle class:\nWe're rallying in cities and towns throughout Florida on the opening day of the 2012 legislative session.

When the session begins tomorrow, there will also be protests taking place all over the state in reaction to the slash and burn budget that Gov. Rick Scott unveiled recently, as well as opposition to the Florida Legislature, which has been accused more than a few times of overreaching its boundaries of power. Tomorrow those voters will have a whole new reason to protest.\nBehold, the mother of all overreaches.\nSay that voters wanted what you would call \"fair elections\" in a state that has been predominantly controlled by one party for years and years. Then say that those voters wanted fair elections so badly that they managed to get enough signatures to get two Amendments on the ballot that would ensure just that. Problem solved, right?\nSure, in a perfect world, but this is Florida, the land of the hanging chad and the Brooks Brothers riots, and, well, the 2000 Presidential Election. The place where many voters were so confused that they actually voted for Pat Buchanan. Nothing about an election is ever simple in Florida, and this is no different.\nAmendments 5 and 6 got on the ballot last year, but the Republicans couldn't sit back and allow fairness to prevail, so they introduced another one, Amendment 7. I suppose you could actually call it the \"Buchanan Amendment\" in that Amendment 7 was designed to mislead and confuse the voter. It was so confusing, in fact, that it took three days for a judge to figure it out before he threw it out in court for that very reason:\n[Judge] Shelfer said it took him three days to understand the meaning of Amendment 7 and that he couldn\u2019t foresee how an average voter would grasp its description during a few minutes in the voting booth.\nNot only was it misleading, but the Legislature made sure that the Amendment would become \"number 7\" specifically in that order:\nAmendment 7 says that it will be the part of the Constitution that is supreme, \u201cwithout subordination to any other provision.\u201d\nIncluding Amendments 5 and 6.\nSo just like that, an unfair election once again favoring the Republicans was thwarted. Or so it seemed. That was last year.\nJust when you think the Republicans in the Florida Legislature couldn't possibly make a bolder grab for power, they do. What does one do when a judge rules against you in such manner? Well, for starters, Senate President Mike Haridopolos issued a statement that day declaring that it was the judge that was confused! However, since foot-stomping and declarations like that one bear little meaning in a court of law, legislators needed to find another way.\nNow, apparently they have. Just change the way the court works!\nOn the eve of Florida\u2019s sixty-day legislative session, House Speaker Dean Cannon has unveiled a proposal to split the State Supreme Court in two, add three justices, and curtail some of the court\u2019s authority.\n\u201cCurrently there are seven justices on the Florida Supreme Court,\u201d Cannon said. \u201cThe proposed legislation provides that there would be five justices sitting on the Supreme Court of criminal appeals, and five justices on the Supreme Court of civil appeals.\u201d\nHe wants to split the Florida Supreme Court into two courts, changing how judges are retained, and in a yet-to-be-discussed plan, he wants to add language to let lawmakers avoid court review of their amendments.\nGoing after the court is a big deal, so we asked the Speaker if this was retribution for their refusal to let amendment seven stay on the ballot.\n\u201c\u2026because it\u2019s not,\u201d Cannon said. \u201cIt basically addresses the proposals, the things that they have identified. The court said we have crowded dockets\u201d\nNo, I'm sure it has absolutely nothing to do with retribution. Never mind that he wants to add judges when Florida needs so badly to \"tighten its belt\" with all these severe budget cuts. Why, the courts are so underfunded they have to cut services!\nMaybe Mike Haridopolos will be the voice of reason and fiscal restraint and point out that adding judges isn't a good idea when things like education are being slashed, and they want to privatize, say prisons?\n\u201cI\u2019m all ears on it. This is something that\u2019s important to him. If it\u2019s important to him, it\u2019s important to me,\u201d Haridopolos said.\nHmm. No foot stomping over new judges? Hey, it's all good!\nWhat about Rick The Dictator Scott?\nScott could appoint at least three more Supreme Court justices under House Speaker Dean Cannon's plan to overhaul the state's highest court.\nAsked about that this morning during his visit to the Department of Transportation, Scott chose to focus on another aspect: \"I heard about that this morning. I understand that the real value of that is we could accelerate some of the cases and things like that. So I'm going to look at it.\"\nCannon's proposal would be a constitutional amendment that would not need Scott's approval.\nIf Scott's view is that he would get to appoint the judges, well, I'll just bet \"he's going to look at it.\" If the three of them assume they have the power to just build their own brand new Supreme Court, that's quite a gig they've got there. Could be mighty convenient too one might say.\nIf Scott just \"heard about that this morning,\" you might even wonder if it was really early this morning. Or last night during a private meeting with Haridopolos, but with no press? One that Scott didn't put on his public schedule because it was just a \"social meeting?\"\nWhen asked today about those Awake The State rallies, Haridopolos said this:\n\u201cThis is America. People have every right to protest, positively or negatively. I think it\u2019s exciting that people are taking such an interest in their government and they want to be vocal about where they stand,\u201d the Merritt Island Republican, running for U.S. Senate, said. \u201cIf there are protests on either side, welcome to America.\u201d\nThe rallies won\u2019t slow down the Senate\u2019s ambitious agenda during opening week that include floor votes on teacher merit pay, two controversial constitutional amendments and tort reform, Haridopolos said.\nSure. \"Welcome to America.\"\nOr \"Good Luck With That?\"\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 03/07/2011 at 10:28 PM in Awake The State, Dean Cannon, Florida, Florida Supreme Court, Mike Haridopolos, Republicans, Rick Scott | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0)",

But Chuck Todd, self-absorbed? Never:\nIt's not about him, people!!!\nMeanwhile, we join Chuck Todd....on Chuck Todd, earlier in the day:\nBREAKING! - VIEWERS TOO STUPID TO EMBRACE THE INTELLECTUAL HUMOR OF VERY SERIOUS JOURNALIST CHUCK TODD\nMaybe no one found it amusing, considering that everyday Americans are actually suffering and are about to suffer more.\nOr maybe no one was watching, period. Because these days if they want actual news, viewers have to turn on Comedy Central to get it from The Daily Show and Stephen Colbert. Sadly, the reverse is not true. When searching for an amusing distraction, no one says \"Gosh, I just can't wait for Chuck Todd's austerity quip o' the day!\"\nOr, maybe they weren't tuning in at all, because they're tired of having the Chuckster insult their intelligence:\nHow does anyone get through the day without the brilliance of the Pundit Whisperer?\nWhile we're on the subject, Mr. Todd, please explain how this whole sequester business got started in the first place? Better yet, how about a little history on obstruction, and the lack of Republican compromise?\nRead: False Equivalence.\n\"Be nice\" if we could get actual facts from the media, rather than having them beat the dead \"both sides\" horse? As Chuck Todd would say, \"too much to ask, of course.\"\nWhen I saw Todd's Woodward tweet this morning it reminded me of seeing him on an episode of \"Real Time\" years ago, when Jeremy Scahill called Todd out for wanting to be a rock star, and for not taking the facts on torture under Bush and Cheney seriously. At the time, Todd called talking about torture \"political catnip.\" Later off camera, Todd accused Scahill of \"taking a cheap shot\" at him. When Scahill asked Todd to point out what he said that wasn't true, Todd said:\n\"That's not the point. You sullied my reputation on TV.\"\nNope. Truth still isn't the point.\nAnd still, it's really all just about Chuck Todd.\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 02/28/2013 at 03:07 PM in Media, MSNBC, Politics | Permalink | Comments (0)\nTags: Chuck Todd, Jeremy Scahill, Media, MSNBC, Politics\nThe Washington Post's The Fix is again looking for nominations for the best state-based political blogs to put together a comprehensive list of where to find the best political news and analysis in each of the 50 states.\nIf you read Beach Peanuts and like what I have to say here, I would be so grateful for a shout out to be on The Fix list for Florida.\nFrom The Fix:\nHere\u2019s what we want from you.

So many said that it was geared towards making Sarah Palin a sympathetic character and a victim. Since we all lived the nightmare of 2008, most of us already knew better. She was no victim.\nI did watch it though, fully prepared for that predicted portrayal of Palin, but I was pleasantly surprised. Rather than a Sarah pity party, it actually portrayed her similar to the wingnut narcissist we've come to witness in the last few years. If anything, they may have just toned down the crazy a notch or two.\nThe most sympathetic character seemed to be John McCain. I was struck by how he was made out to be not just the \"hero\" as per usual, but the \"movie McCain\" seemed almost competent, aside from the scene where he refuses to \"deal\" with Palin out of fear she'll \"turn on him too.\" (So heroic.) I'll give McCain credit for explaining the truth to a voter that President Obama was a decent man rather than a terrorist, but other than that, I wouldn't say \"competent to be President\" described the McCain of 2008. Nor did many voters, thank God.\nBut what bothered me the most wasn't in the movie.\nWhat bothered me in the past, and bothers me even more since the movie came out is the way traditional media is giving a free pass to the real life \"Game Changers,\" Steve Schmidt in particular, and enabler Nicole Wallace. Schmidt is the one who picked Palin, and Wallace, who was not only tasked with the impossible job of turning Palin into someone who looked like she had a clue, but has gone on to write a novel inspired by what she calls a woman who is \"cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs\" making it to the White House. How quaint.\nHere's my question: Why is the traditional media treating these two like mere candid celebrities who act as if they were on the outside looking in? Granted, I suppose we shouldn't be completely surprised, after all it's been well documented by several bloggers that members of past failed GOP Administrations, among others, fill the majority of the time slots on the network Sunday shows rather than members of the Democratic party who are actually well accomplished. Time after time on the major networks, when an expert on certain policy or electoral politics is needed, the media loves a failure. Who better to ask how to win an election than someone who has made a career of failed ones? It boggles the mind.\nBut Schmidt and Wallace? Please. Schmidt is a political analyst for MSNBC who is trotted out for his expertise on all things political much like another popular GOP failure, Michael Steele. (Full disclosure, I'm a fan of most of MSNBC's programming and many who work there, but I have to wonder why they picked these two?)\nWallace on the other hand pops up whenever Palin's name is mentioned for more than just her routine \"I'm a victim, watch my temper tantrum!\" antics. Whenever Palin \"must be discussed\" in detail, there's Wallace all bubbly and willing to trash her as if she were just a mean girl sorority sister of hers rather than a bumbling, ignorant woman unleashed on gullible voters who Wallace knows better than any of the viewers.\nExcuse me if I don't jump in line to congratulate these two for telling the real story behind their campaign, because what these two did to damage our politics and nearly our country wasn't a \"Game Change.\" It was a horror show.\nThe McCain-Palin \"Country First\" campaign was a travesty that never should have happened. Schmidt and Wallace knew it never should have happened, but they were perfectly willing to do whatever it took to put \"bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb-bomb Iran, but seriously folks\" McCain and Palin, who seems to have the mental age of a spoiled 5 year old but with less smarts, into the two highest offices in America. Yes, the man who was more afraid that his running mate would turn on him if he dared criticize her than he was fearful that she might one day gain access to and put her finger on the button and take us all out in an atomic blaze of God fearing glory, or whatever it is she believes.\nI heard one interviewer say how noble it was of Schmidt to stand up to Palin and deny her the chance to give an unprecedented VP concession speech. Yes, if true, that was a point in the movie where viewers no doubt were cheering Schmidt on. But what would have been more patriotic was if he had never placed Palin and this entire country in that position in the first place. He never should have chosen Palin to run.\nWallace claims she was horrified with Palin and couldn't work with her. She's also admitted that when the time came, she couldn't even bring herself to vote. I suppose she feels we should thank her for that and say \"all better now?\" Nope, sorry. What would have been impressive was if she would have spoken up during the campaign rather than after we were lucky enough to dodge an electoral bullet.\nSure, they know they were wrong to do what they did, and they say they've learned from their mistakes. I'm sorry, but I don't think that's good enough. As all seems to be forgiven from the media standpoint, Schmidt now pontificates GOP strategy in the current election, which gives me pause. Have we learned from the mistakes made on behalf of the GOP in the 2008 election? I don't think so. Just look at the current field of Republicans who are left. I wouldn't call them much of an improvement on McCain-Palin. Rather than learn from previous mistakes, they've merely doubled down on them.\nNo, today's Republicans aren't any more concerned with putting the country first than the 2008 crew were. They see the entire race as a game, so \"shaking things up\" with a \"game change\" is all they have left. Wouldn't it be nice if someone from the Republican Party, or say an analyst or novelist who brought us to the brink would actually be bold enough to not only say that, but try to change things for the good of the country instead of continuing to play along?\nNow that would be a true \"Game Change.\"\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 03/14/2012 at 04:29 PM in Election 2008, Election 2012, John McCain, Media, MSNBC, Politics, Republicans, Sarah Palin | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0)\nTags: Election 2008, Election 2012, Game Change, John McCain, Media, MSNBC, Nicole Wallace, Republicans, Sarah Palin, Steve Schmidt\nNot All Your Gifts Are Under The Tree\nPhoto Source: The White House\nShould you spend time with family and friends over the holidays who complain that all they've gotten from President Obama so far are lumps of coal, here's a good response:\n\"YOU SAY COAL, I SAY GOLD MINE\"\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 12/24/2011 at 04:06 PM in Barack Obama, Politics | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0)\nTags: Barack Obama, Politics\nA game day must read:\nPenn State, My Final Loss Of Faith - Thomas L.

He argued, for economic reasons, that abortions should be outlawed in order for the U.S. to be more competitive with China.\nHow would that make us more competitive with China you may ask? Well, simply put (accent on the simple of \"simply put\"):\n\"there are far more Chinese students taking AP classes than American students, the U.S. needs to ban abortion so women will have more children in order to rival China\u2019s academic dominance.\"\nFrom Right Wing Watch:\nMartin: When you look at China and you look at their population, the population growth that China has and other Third World countries have compared to the population growth of the United States; China right now how more children in AP and gifted classes than the United States has in school. Think about that, they have more children in their gifted classes than we have in our entire school system. And we are killing thousands and tens of thousands of babies every year. How do we compete? We have to think about our future. That\u2019s a little bit of economics behind this bill.\nGiven that, much like most Republicans today, Florida legislators and Gov. Rick Scott have done their level best to reach the goal of gutting public education in favor of shifting to private schools (and in Florida's case, ones that Jeb Bush would likely profit from) in the name of vouchers and Charter Schools, I'm a little surprised they didn't come up with this idiotic idea first.\nThis so-called \"heartbeat\" abortion bill, as Right Wing Watch points out, is also supported by Republicans like Mike Huckabee, Newt Gingrich and Michele Bachmann, all of whom are potential Presidential candidates. I can actually see them all arguing this point, because they all think the American public are stupid, like them.\nBy all means, let's gut the public education system altogether, and pay teachers even less than we already do. But let's make sure all the \"little ladies\" out there of child bearing age can't get abortions under any circumstances, and keep them all barefoot and pregnant so we can get more kids into AP classes? Why yes, THERE'S a plan!\nMeanwhile I guess we'll have to wait and see what the plan is for all those kids who were \"popped out\" in the name of competition who can't get by because their families couldn't afford to raise a family, have mothers who had to stay home instead of working to raise the child, and who are now in need of public assistance. Public assistance, I might add, that Republicans also think they shouldn't have. But please, do pull yourselves up by your boot-straps kids and get out there and do your part to compete with China! AP classes await!\nAfter all, this isn't like the old days when all you had to do was finish your broccoli because kids in China were starving. Now American kids actually ARE starving, but their mothers have got to keep having babies regardless because we've got to compete with China!\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 05/11/2011 at 07:16 PM in Abortion, Education, Politics, Republicans | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0)\nTags: Abortion, China, Education, GOP, Jarrod Martin, Republicans",

        "raw_content": "Anyone who's experienced a headache (an estimated 90 percent of Americans) knows it can be a real downer, to say the least. Depending on the type, how long it lasts and the severity, a headache can complicate your day or ruin it altogether. Too many people take over-the-counter pain-relief medication for their headaches, and too few make an appointment to a doctor of chiropractic.\nHow can chiropractic help? According to the American Chiropractic Association, a national association for chiropractors, primary headaches are frequently associated with muscle tension in the neck. That means chiropractic spinal manipulation that helps relieve neck pain and tension can also relieve headache pain. Chiropractors can also provide advice on posture, which can often cause the neck pain / tension and thus contribute to your headaches.\nIn a recent case study reported in the Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, a female schoolteacher \"experienced long-term relief from tension-type headache (TTH) and major depression following chiropractic treatment.\" (Depression is a potential consequence of long-term pain.) The woman, who had been experiencing \"disabling\" daily headaches of varying intensity for two years, received chiropractic spinal manipulation to spastic lower neck and upper back muscles, along with other nondrug treatments commonly performed by chiropractors, for several months. The woman eventually eliminated all use of pain medication and has now been headache-free for more than six years.\nHere are some other natural ways your chiropractor may help you prevent headaches and reduce headache-related pain, per the ACA. Discuss them on your next visit:\nTake breaks and stretch your head / neck through a comfortable range of motion throughout the day, especially if you have a desk job that keeps you in a fixed position.\nPerform low-impact exercise such as walking an low-impact aerobics to help relieve headache pain.\nAvoid teeth clenching, which can stress the temporomandibular joints (TMJ), which connect your jaw to your skull and can lead to headaches.\nDrink adequate water every day to help avoid dehydration, which has been associated with headaches.\nTo learn about the different types of headaches and the symptoms you might experience if you suffer one, click here.",

We evaluate posterior CO2 concentration profiles against observations from the High-Performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research (HIAPER) Pole-to-Pole Observations (HIPPO) aircraft campaigns over the mid-Pacific in 2009\u20132011. Although the models differ in inverse approaches, assimilated observations, prior fluxes, and transport models, their broad latitudinal separation of land fluxes has converged significantly since the Atmospheric Carbon Cycle Inversion Intercomparison (TransCom 3) and the REgional Carbon Cycle Assessment and Processes (RECCAP) projects, with model spread reduced by 80\u2009% since TransCom 3 and 70\u2009% since RECCAP. Most modeled CO2 fields agree reasonably well with the HIPPO observations, specifically for the annual mean vertical gradients in the Northern Hemisphere. Northern Hemisphere vertical mixing no longer appears to be a dominant driver of northern versus tropical (T) annual flux differences. Our newer suite of models still gives northern extratropical land uptake that is modest relative to previous estimates (Gurney et al., 2002; Peylin et al., 2013) and near-neutral tropical land uptake for 2009\u20132011. Given estimates of emissions from deforestation, this implies a continued uptake in intact tropical forests that is strong relative to historical estimates (Gurney et al., 2002; Peylin et al., 2013). The results from these models for other time periods (2004\u20132014, 2001\u20132004, 1992\u20131996) and re-evaluation of the TransCom 3 Level 2 and RECCAP results confirm that tropical land carbon fluxes including deforestation have been near neutral for several decades. However, models still have large disagreements on ocean\u2013land partitioning. The fossil fuel (FF) and the atmospheric growth rate terms have been thought to be the best-known terms in the global carbon budget, but we show that they currently limit our ability to assess regional-scale terrestrial fluxes and ocean\u2013land partitioning from the model ensemble.\nGaubert, B., Stephens, B. B., Basu, S., Chevallier, F., Deng, F., Kort, E. A., Patra, P. K., Peters, W., R\u00f6denbeck, C., Saeki, T., Schimel, D., Van der Laan-Luijkx, I., Wofsy, S., and Yin, Y.: Global atmospheric CO2 inverse models converging on neutral tropical land exchange, but disagreeing on fossil fuel and atmospheric growth rate, Biogeosciences, 16, 117-134, https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-16-117-2019, 2019.\nCurrent appraisals of the global atmospheric carbon budget are informed by surface fluxes computed by inverse transport models (Gurney et al., 2002, 2003, 2004; Newsam and Enting, 1988; Peylin et al., 2013; Rayner et al., 1999; Tans et al., 1990). Net carbon flux to the atmosphere is derived from temporal and spatial CO2 gradients given by atmospheric observations and prior estimates of component fluxes and their uncertainties. This assessment of atmospheric sources and sinks relies on (1) atmospheric tracer transport models that link fluxes to atmospheric CO2 fields, (2) prior emissions and sinks (e.g., from process model flux estimates), (3) the spatial and temporal representativeness and coverage of the observational network, and (4) error statistics associated with each information piece. Since the problem is underdetermined, it is essential to quantify the uncertainty and biases of posterior fluxes and CO2 concentrations with independent observations and cross-model comparisons. The most prominent community-wide inverse result intercomparison that included comparisons of posterior concentrations to independent observations was the TransCom 3 study (Gurney et al., 2002, 2004), which studied fluxes for the 1992\u20131996 period. This comparison could focus on the impact of transport model differences by optimizing the fluxes using a common method over the same regions (11 land and 11 ocean). One particular feature of the seasonally resolved (Level 2) TransCom 3 inversions (hereafter denoted as T3L2) was the direct dependence of flux estimates on vertical gradients of CO2 (Stephens et al., 2007), leading to a different partitioning between northern extratropical (NET) versus tropical (T) land sinks. A more recent community-wide CO2 inverse model intercomparison was carried out as part of the REgional Carbon Cycle Assessment and Processes project (RECCAP, http://www.globalcarbonproject.org/reccap/ last access: 7 January 2019; Canadell et al., 2011). The atmospheric inversion component of RECCAP was a comprehensive intercomparison that analyzed long-term mean, long-term trend, interannual variations, and mean seasonal variations of CO2 fluxes using common post-processing (Peylin et al., 2013). In RECCAP, the 11 inverse models used different inversion techniques, atmospheric models, and observational datasets. When the fluxes were analyzed for the years 2001 to 2004, Peylin et al. (2013) found an overall improved consistency between inversions on a large scale and over specific regions compared to T3L2 when the network of atmospheric sites was less dense. RECCAP inversions showed a general agreement on the total natural land carbon flux long-term mean and its interannual variability over 1991\u20132010. The total ocean plus land sink estimates were more robust over the NET than for the tropics and in the southern extratropics (SET). The remaining spread led to a disagreement on the NET\u2013T\u2013SET land partitioning, with some models simulating a stronger tropical source compensated for by larger NET and SET sinks. Peylin et al. (2013) also noted that the group of models that assimilated observations at their corresponding times rather than using monthly means had more consistent, weaker tropical sources, and weaker northern sink land fluxes.\nSeveral additional inverse modeling intercomparison studies have more recently involved satellite, surface, and joint surface\u2013satellite inversion (Chevallier et al., 2014; Houweling et al., 2015). In these studies, the inversion systems used space-borne retrievals of column-average dry air-mole fraction of CO2 (XCO2) from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2) satellite since July 2014 (Eldering et al., 2017) and from the Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT; Kuze et al., 2009) instrument since January 2009. Those inverse exercises, however, are still sensitive to satellite retrieval algorithms and the inversions' prior assumptions. In particular, the results are sensitive to systematic errors from transport and satellite retrievals (Chevallier, 2015; Houweling et al., 2010).\nSchimel et al. (2015) investigated the NET versus T+SET land flux partitioning as indicated by atmospheric inversions, biosphere process model simulations, and forest inventory estimates, and they estimated a large land uptake over the tropics by intact forests due to a significant CO2 fertilization effect. This study argued for the importance of comparing posterior CO2 fields to observations, which was not done in RECCAP, in order to fully understand and predict terrestrial land sinks, as well as their variation due to CO2 and climate feedbacks. A follow-up inversion intercomparison focused on East Asia and found that large flux adjustments were possible even though models simulated the observed gradient in vertical profiles measured by aircraft well, because the uncertainties from model transport and fossil fuel (FF) prior emissions were compensated for by the flux adjustments (Thompson et al., 2016).\nThe HIAPER Pole-to-Pole Observations (HIPPO) campaign (Wofsy, 2011, https://doi.org/10.3334/CDIAC/HIPPO_010) spanned large latitudinal, vertical, and temporal coverage (2009 to 2011) and provides a useful atmospheric trace gas dataset for investigating the consistency of inverse fluxes and posterior concentration results. Graven et al. (2013) found an increase in the CO2 seasonal amplitude by up to 50\u2009% at mid- to high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere and at altitudes ranging between 3 and 6\u2009km between the HIPPO period and the 1950s. Deng et al. (2015) compared posterior CO2 and O3 fields from GEOS-Chem to the HIPPO observations to diagnose the impact of the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) definition on retrieved fluxes. These results indicate a significant impact of transport errors on retrieved fluxes. Frankenberg et al. (2016) evaluated the CarbonTracker CT2013B and Monitoring Atmospheric Composition and Climate (MACC) v13r1 atmospheric inverse models, as well as satellite retrievals from GOSAT, TES (Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer), and AIRS (Atmospheric Infrared Sounder) in comparison to HIPPO measurements. They found that, despite an overall agreement between inversions and HIPPO measurements, systematic model transport errors remain important.\nAfter years of continuous model development, the goal of this study is to investigate whether global inverse models are still highly dependent on Northern Hemisphere vertical transport errors and on prior flux estimates and their uncertainties used in the inversions.\nOur two main approaches to answer this question are described as follows.\nFirst, we compare modeled CO2 after flux optimization to independent aircraft in situ CO2 observations from the HIPPO campaign (2009\u20132011).\nSecond, we compare the observationally constrained fluxes across models and to budget estimates provided by the Global Carbon budget 2016 (hereafter denoted GCP2016; Le Qu\u00e9r\u00e9 et al., 2016), both for latitudinal bands and on a global scale.\nMeasurements and inversion systems are described in Sect. 2. In Sect. 3.1, we present the results of the comparison of modeled posterior CO2 vertical gradients with HIPPO measurements. In Sect. 3.2, we analyze the differences in the meridional distribution of land sinks and global carbon estimates for the years 2009 to 2011 from inverse modeling of atmospheric in situ observations together and with GCP2016. In Sect. 3.3, we compare the inverse model and GCP2016 estimates at the global scale, including prescribed fossil and retrieved atmospheric growth rate terms. Conclusions and a summary of the findings are given in Sect. 4.\n2.1 Participating models\nThe list of participating inverse models is shown in Table 1 and more details are available in the Supplement. These include 10 different inverse modeling systems or system variants. The inversion systems differ in many aspects such as transport models, wind fields, analysis procedures, and subset of assimilated observations. The atmospheric chemistry-transport model (ACTM) system performed two inversions with different prescribed fossil fuel emissions (Saeki and Patra, 2017), one based on totals from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC; Boden et al., 2016) and another based on the International Energy Agency (IEA/OECD, 2016), which allows us to assess sensitivity to the FF prior only. This is also the case for the two CarbonTracker Europe versions, CTE2016-FT (Fast Track) and CTE2017-FT, where only the subset of observations and the FF prior are different (van der Laan-Luijkx et al., 2017).\nIt is worth noting that some inverse models are constructed in a similar framework. Some share the same transport model, such as TM5 that is used in four inversions, and some use the same meteorological fields. Five inverse systems nudge their forecast field to the ERA-Interim reanalysis (Dee et al., 2011). The two longest flux estimates, from CAMS (v16r1) and Jena (s85_v4.1), are used to reproduce the comparison with observations as in Stephens et al. (2007) over the T3L2 period (1992 to 1996). The Jena s85_v4.1 and s04_v4.1 inversions differ in their calculation periods and station sets used: Jena s85_v4.1 starts in 1985 using only 23 stations that cover this entire period, while s04_v4.1 uses many more sites (59) and starts in 2004. This also allows us to separate the impact of the number of sites assimilated over the most recent period.\nChevallier et al. (2005, 2010)R\u00f6denbeck et al.

GCP2016 is the most recent version with flux estimates forced to balance globally. The most recent version (GCP2017; Le Qu\u00e9r\u00e9 et al., 2018) separated an explicit unknown ocean or land flux term, which prevents simple comparisons of the type presented here. Specifically, the land\u2013ocean partitioning in GCP2016 is based on multiple observational constraints on the ocean flux for the 1990s, extrapolated forward with a suite of seven global ocean models. As pointed out in Le Qu\u00e9r\u00e9 et al. (2018), there are considerable uncertainties in this extrapolation, with the estimated ocean\u2013land partitioning for later decades dependent on the models. The GCP2016 atmospheric growth rate is derived from atmospheric CO2 measurements at marine boundary layer (MBL) sites made by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Earth System Research Laboratory (ESRL; Masarie and Tans, 1995; Dlugokencky and Tans, 2018). CO2 emissions from land-use change (ELUC) are the net sum of all anthropogenic activities: deforestation, afforestation, logging, and shifting cultivation. Total emissions are estimated, following the bookkeeping method (Houghton, 2003; Houghton et al., 2012), with complementary interannual variability calculated from satellite data when available (Giglio et al., 2013; van der Werf et al., 2010). The average ELUC for the year 2009 to 2011 included here is estimated to be 0.85\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 with an uncertainty of 0.5\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121. These emissions are added to the GCP2016 land sink for comparison to atmospheric inversion estimates.\nFinally, the land sink is estimated in GCP2016 as a residual from all other components of the carbon budget. The GCP2016 method treats the riverine flux of carbon from land to ocean to atmosphere as separate components of the total air\u2013land and air\u2013sea fluxes and subtracts an estimate of this flux (0.45\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121; Jacobson et al., 2007) from the pCO2-based sea-to-air flux estimates to match estimates of the anthropogenic ocean sink alone. Because the land sink is a residual, this increase in the magnitude of the ocean sink results in a corresponding reduction by 0.45\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 in the magnitude of the land sink in GCP2016. To compare to atmospheric inverse flux estimates, which represent the total air\u2013sea and air\u2013land fluxes, we have adjusted the GCP2016 ocean and land flux estimates by this same 0.45\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, decreasing the ocean sink and increasing the land sink.\nNote that we do not show GCP2016 estimates here as a truth metric against which to evaluate the models, but rather as one estimate of an internally consistent global budget that provides a useful reference for exploring axes of variability in our models and comparing to other community estimates.\nFigure 1Reconstructed annual cycle in northern extratropical vertical CO2 gradients, obtained from fits using two harmonics of the HIPPO data and correspondingly sampled model outputs, averaged over 20 to 90\u2218\u2009N (1000 to 800\u2009hPa minus 800 to 400\u2009hPa). The CO2 average curtain observations for each of nine atmospheric transects have been added on the graph to illustrate the data uncertainties and temporal coverage, the y-axis error bar is derived from the range of disagreement among the three in situ instruments on board (QCLS, OMS, and AO2; see Supplement), and the line average is derived from the CO2.X merged dataset. The horizontal whiskers represent the time span of the flights contributing to each average. The observed line shown here is not a direct fit to the observation points, but rather comes from an average of fits to individual 100\u2009hPa by 5\u2218 latitude bins as described in the text.\n2.3 HIPPO observations and fitting procedures\nThe HIPPO project (Wofsy, 2011) used the NSF/NCAR Gulfstream V aircraft (GV) to conduct 5-month-long campaigns in different seasons over 3 years (2009\u20132011; see Supplement) that consisted of vertical profiling along North\u2013South-Pacific transects between 87\u2218\u2009N and 67\u2218\u2009S. The five campaigns included nine transects of the NET Pacific. We exclude observations over North America conducted between Colorado and Alaska (Fig. S1 in the Supplement). HIPPO flew three different in situ CO2 instruments and two whole air samplers with laboratory CO2 measurements. We use the recommended CO2.X variable which comes primarily from the Harvard quantum cascade laser spectrometer (QCLS), gap filled during calibration sequences, and compare to the other systems to constrain potential systematic biases (see Supplement). We calculate the NET vertical gradient as the difference between the average from 1000 to 800\u2009hPa for the lower troposphere (LT) and the average from 800 to 400\u2009hPa for the upper troposphere (UT), spanning the latitude range from 20 to 90\u2218\u2009N. To do this, we first detrend the observations and model sampled along the flight-track output by subtracting a deseasonalized and smoothed long-term trend record from the fit of the Mauna Loa Observatory in situ measurement time series to provide a common reference for both observations and models, and we bin the observations by 100\u2009hPa in pressure and 5\u2218 in latitude bins. We then fit each bin with a curve using two harmonics and constant offset, and we average the resulting fits across boxes and pressure levels, with latitude weighting (see Supplement). Figure 1 shows the resulting daily fit of the annual cycle for the HIPPO observations and model simulations of the NET vertical gradient. Qualitatively, it shows that most models reproduce the CO2 cycle well, with positive gradients in winter over a broad peak and negative gradients in summer over a narrower trough. The three CarbonTracker inversions (CT2016, CTE2016-FT, and CTE2017-FT) have somewhat lower seasonal gradient amplitude, while the two ACTM inversions (ACTM-IEA and ACTM-CDIAC) show larger amplitude. More quantitative details are given in Sect. 3.1. To illustrate the temporal coverage of the observations, we plot the measurements of the nine HIPPO transects in Fig. 1 as simple differences of the latitude-weighted average concentrations within the LT and UT boxes for each transect, while an example of a fit to an individual bin is shown in Fig. S1.\nThe QCLS instrument has a 1\u03c3 precision of 20\u2009ppb (Santoni et al., 2014), and for all five CO2 systems on the GV the instrumental precision is negligible for the large-scale average metrics we present here. More relevant sources of uncertainty are associated with the potential for altitude-dependent biases that might result from inlet or cabin-pressure effects, as well as misrepresentation of synoptic transport in the models. We estimate (i) uncertainty in the annual-mean NET vertical gradient metric by comparison of the five independent instruments and whole air samplers to be \u00b1 0.15\u2009ppm (see Supplement) and (ii) uncertainty on the individual HIPPO transect values to range from 0.02 to 0.48\u2009ppm as shown by the vertical bars in Fig. 1. These values are derived from the maximum absolute differences between the sensors, which we conservatively treat as best-guess 1\u03c3 uncertainty estimates. These uncertainty estimates correspond to the vertical gradient as observed by the HIPPO flight tracks and calculated with the fitting procedure used here. Because we use model output along the flight tracks and treat model output and observations identically in our calculations, we do not include an estimate of potential spatial sampling bias, but we do use model output to assess the spatial representativeness of our calculated metrics with respect to full 150\u2218\u2009W transect and full zonal means in Sect. 4 of the Supplement (Figs. S5, S6). Also, because the models are driven by reanalysis winds, they should capture the position of synoptic systems and associated transport. However, the wind fields and model transport may be biased, which could result in different vertical gradients for reasons unrelated to the fluxes of interest. We have estimated synoptic variability in the vertical gradient metric and find a worst-case potential model synoptic sampling bias of \u00b10.06\u2009ppm for the annual mean, \u00b10.14\u2009ppm for JFM, and \u00b10.15\u2009ppm for JAS (1\u03c3; see Supplement).\n3.1 Fluxes and posterior CO2 comparisons with HIPPO\nEach individual inversion system adjusts fluxes to fit the concentration fields with its given transport scheme and a priori source and sink information. Biases can appear in the retrieved posterior CO2 resulting from errors in the estimated fluxes or from specific biases in transport to the location of the independent data (here in particular vertical transport to the upper atmosphere). We first evaluate if the spread of retrieved land fluxes over different zonal bands is correlated with NET vertical CO2 gradients and if the modeled gradients match observations, as was previously done for the T3L2 models by Stephens et al. (2007).\nFigure 2a presents the results for the HIPPO and model vertical gradients and model fluxes, broken into NET and T+SET regions for the years 2009\u20132011. The mean and relative spread of 10 simulations for the posterior annual mean NET land flux is \u22122.24\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 \u00b10.29\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (13\u2009%, 1\u03c3). Aside from the ACTM-IEA simulation, all models are within the uncertainty range of 0.15\u2009ppm or 50\u2009% of the measured vertical gradient. This contrasts to the TransCom 3 Level 2 simulations which had an annual mean of \u22122.42\u2009PgC\u2009yr-1\u00b11.05 (43\u2009%)\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for NET land flux and disagreed with the observed vertical gradient by \u223c0.5\u2009ppm on average and as much as 1.3\u2009ppm (186\u2009%). As listed in Table 1, the inversions have significant differences in transport model, resolution, and driving meteorology and are converging despite these differences. In addition, there are no apparent relationships between vertical gradients and NET nor T+SET land fluxes. The standard deviation across 10 simulations on the difference between NET land and T+SET is 0.4\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 while it was 2.1\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 in T3L2 (Gurney and Denning, 2013; Gurney et al., 2004) and 1.28\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 in RECCAP (Peylin et al., 2013), representing a steady and dramatic convergence of model estimates over the past 15 years. We reproduce the Stephens et al. (2007) annual mean figure in Fig. 2b, with the exception of showing T+SET instead of T, to highlight those differences. It is important to note that these results correspond to a different period and different models, with a smaller network of assimilated in situ network measurements and assimilation of monthly mean rather than discrete measurements. We took advantage of the two models that span the 1992\u20131996 period, CAMS (v16r1) and Jena (s85_v4.1), to further investigate differences from the T3L2 period. Those two models are quite close to the 2009\u20132011 vertical gradient observations (Fig. 2a), but they both overestimate the 1992\u20131996 vertical gradients (Fig. 2b). Notably, they fall along the lines fit to the T3L2 models in Fig. 2b, which could be a coincidence, but might also suggest that despite agreeing with the other models on the latitudinal flux distribution for 2009\u20132011 these models overestimate tropical sources and northern sinks during 1992\u20131996. This would require that these models be more dependent on vertical mixing biases in the earlier period. The different number of assimilated sites is one potential factor that might explain different biases in retrieved fluxes for these two periods, but this is not seen for the comparison of the two versions of the Jena model assimilating different numbers of sites during 2009\u20132011. It is worth noting that reanalyses of meteorological observations have noticeably improved thanks to a better representation of unresolved processes in global models, improved data assimilation methods, and the increasing availability of satellite data, which makes the reanalyses perform better in the 2000s than for the 1990s and earlier (Bauer et al., 2015; Gelaro et al., 2017). As an example, the assimilation of new observations from the constellation of COSMIC global positioning system radio occultation (GPSRO) satellites has led to a significant improvement in meteorological analyses and forecasts (Healy, 2008).\nOne concern is the spatial representativeness of the HIPPO measurements which were made over the Pacific Ocean while the light-aircraft observations used by Stephens et al. (2007) were mostly measuring profiles over land. We discuss this issue in the Supplement and show that across models HIPPO vertical gradients are significantly representative of the zonal mean for the 3-year mean and every year individually (Fig. S5). Seasonally (Fig. S6), it appears that the vertical gradients are representative of the parallel 150W for winter (JFM), spring (AMJ), and fall (OND) seasons, representative of the zonal mean for winter (JFM) and fall (OND), and representative of the zonal average over land only in boreal summer (JAS). We did find a significant correlation between vertical gradients defined by the HIPPO flight tracks and land zonal means during summer (JAS), when vertical gradients are weak.\nFigure 2c and d show the vertical gradients and fluxes for 2009\u20132011 winter (JFM) and summer (JAS). The agreement between the models and HIPPO observations is not as strong as for annual means. The vertical gradient in the NET winter is reasonably well reproduced by nine models with differences lower than 0.36\u2009ppm. The ACTM-IEA inversion is an outlier and overestimates by 0.94\u2009ppm the winter season average vertical gradient. For ACTM, the global annual IEA emissions are less than CDIAC (Fig. 4c and d), which results in a weaker northern extratropical sink (Figs. 2s and 3a) that corresponds with a more positive LT\u2013UT northern extratropical gradient (Figs. 2a and S2) and a more positive N\u2013S gradient (Fig. S2), comparing just the two ACTM versions. Differences across inversion systems in Fig. S2 also depend on the transport and inversion scheme and the resulting spatial distribution of sources and sinks.\nThere are generally larger differences between observed and modeled vertical gradients in Northern Hemisphere summer (JAS), with only two models (ACTM-IEA and CAMS) within observation error bars, but the whole range of values is only 0.75\u2009ppm. In this case a linear relationship (r2=0.4) is found between the modeled vertical gradient and the retrieved T+SET fluxes, but not for the NET flux. There is a significant relationship between HIPPO and the land-only zonal average vertical gradient and both are correlated with the T+SET fluxes (Fig. S7), but with a slope of 2.16\u2009ppm\u2009yr\u2009PgC1 for HIPPO while it is 0.93\u2009ppm\u2009yr\u2009PgC1 over land where the vertical gradients are bigger. This suggests that transport errors may be more critical in the summer season or that other factors compensate to obscure the relationship for these relatively coarse time averages in other seasons and for the annual means. While additional insights into model behavior could be gained from more detailed comparisons to individual models or in more controlled inversion ensembles, the varied nature of these inversion systems makes detailed analyses more challenging and beyond the scope of our current study.\nFor the annual means and winter there are no statistical relationships between the vertical gradients and the retrieved fluxes. This suggests that Northern Hemisphere vertical mixing errors do not play a major role in biasing the flux estimation across these models. However, the retrieved fluxes can still be biased because of the transport errors.\nOne potential limitation in our analysis could be the use of similar meteorological fields from the ECMWF base analysis and forecast cycle, which is the case for 5 out of 10 simulations. A careful comparison of model transport suggests that nudging to a particular reanalysis product does not imply identical tracer transport between the models (Locatelli et al., 2015; Orbe et al., 2017; Prather et al., 2008). The transport errors arise from resolved advection and heavily parameterized transport schemes such as convection and boundary layer mixing (Krol et al., 2018; Locatelli et al., 2015; Orbe et al., 2017). Qualitatively, we cannot distinguish the CO2 vertical gradient from models using ERA-Interim winds from the five other models.\nFigure 2Retrieved fluxes versus NET vertical gradients. (a) Annual mean NET land and T+SET land fluxes versus posterior NET vertical gradients (lower minus upper troposphere) from model output along HIPPO flight tracks and HIPPO observations (pink line) for the period 2009\u20132011. The shaded area represents an estimate of measurement uncertainty of \u00b10.15\u2009ppm for the annual mean, as estimated in the Sect. S2 in the Supplement. Inverse model posterior concentration gradients and fluxes are shown as points (squares represent NET; triangles represent T+SET). The vertical axis represents the integrated annual mean land fluxes (PgC\u2009yr\u22121). (b) Same as (a) but for 1992\u20131996 and showing TransCom 3 Level 2 models and our two current models that span this time period, showing dependence of posterior fluxes on transport and a large range of transport biases. Annual mean NET (red squares) and T+SET (blue triangles) land carbon fluxes for 1992\u20131996 estimated by the 12 T3L2 models plotted as a function of the models' post-inversion predicted mean vertical CO2 gradients at 10 light-aircraft profiling sites (adapted from Stephens et al., 2007) with fluxes partitioned by TransCom region. The Jena (s85_v4.1) and the CAMS (v16r1) simulations have also been sampled at the same light-aircraft locations but their fluxes are partitioned at 20\u2218\u2009N and 20\u2218\u2009S. The crosses show our new best estimate of the fluxes estimated by the regression of all T3L2 models. The error bars on these points are estimated using the standard error of the regressions. (c) Same as panel (a) for January\u2013February\u2013March (JFM), and (d) same as panel (a) for July\u2013August\u2013September (JAS). For the seasonal plots, the width of the pink bar is 0.07\u2009ppm for JFM and 0.17 for JAS. In panel (d), the black line represents the regression line, shown because the relationship is statistically significant at a 95\u2009% confidence interval.\n3.2 The latitudinal distribution of retrieved land fluxes\nIn this section, we present the retrieved land flux partitioning between the NET and the T+SET, as shown in Fig. 3 and Table 2. Because the total sink is the sum of T+SET and NET, these lines have a slope of \u22121 and any deviation perpendicular to the lines indicates disagreement on the total land sink from the GCP2016 estimate. As noted in the previous section, inverse modeling results for the HIPPO period (2009\u20132011) are remarkably close to one another (Fig. 3a). These results converge on a NET land sink value slightly larger than 2\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (-2.24\u00b10.29\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121) and a T+SET land sink of-0.38\u00b10.31\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121. In Fig. 3, multi-model means are represented by blue diamonds and associated error bars are estimated by the standard deviation across models. The 2009\u20132011 period is marked by a large tropical land sink because of the strong La Ni\u00f1a event of 2011 (Bastos et al., 2013; Poulter et al., 2014). For these 3 years, the models clearly indicate a negative flux over the tropics and SET land. There are also increasing lines of evidence that the rate of deforestation and climate stress over tropics have been moderated in recent decades (e.g., 2000s), compared to the 1990s (Kondo et al., 2018), with a reduced change in tropical forest cover because the decrease in the South American deforestation has been compensated for by an increased Southeast Asian deforestation (Hansen et al., 2013).\nIn order to place these recent flux estimates in the context of previous studies, we show the flux estimates by the new models that also estimate fluxes for the earlier periods; two models have available outputs for the T3L2 period (1992\u20131996) and four for the RECCAP period (2001\u20132004), as shown in Fig. 3b and c. For Jena, one inversion (s85_v4.1) starts in 1985 and is constrained by only 23 atmospheric sites while the other (s04_v4.1) starts in 2004 and uses 59 sites. Interestingly, the difference between s85_v4.1 and s04_v4.1 for 2009\u20132011 is rather small (Fig. 3a), less than 0.15\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121.\nAccording to GCP2016, the total land sink in 2009\u20132011 was around twice as large (around 3\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121) compared to that for 1992\u20131996 (around 1.7\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121) and 2001\u20132004 (around 1.3\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121). This is due to the combined effect of natural interannual variability as well as a long-term trend (Ballantyne et al., 2012). The retrieved total land fluxes for all study periods appear to be close to the corresponding GCP estimates with most models falling within the GCP2016 1\u03c3 uncertainty range. For the 2001\u20132004 period, the newer simulations move fluxes parallel to the GCP line in the direction of a weaker tropical source and a weaker NET sink relative to the original RECCAP estimates. For the 1992\u20131996 period, one of the two newer simulations shifts fluxes in that same direction, but not as far as suggested by Stephens et al. (2007).\nHowever, we have revisited the Stephens et al. (2007) estimates, by considering the intercept of the regression lines with the aircraft observations rather than the mean of the three models nearest the annual mean observations and evaluating the error using the standard error of the linear regressions. The selection of three models by Stephens et al. (2007) was somewhat arbitrary as they did not directly overlap the observations and did not agree as well as other models seasonally. This new approach relying on the correlated signal from all models leads to a NET flux of -1.7\u00b10.59\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and a T+SET flux of 0.15\u00b10.66\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, a similar shift in NET fluxes but only two-thirds of the shift in T+SET fluxes using the Stephens et al. (2007) subset of models, as shown in Fig. 3b.\nFor the RECCAP period, we used their Group 1 simulations (JENA, LSCE, MACC-II, CT2011_oi, CTE2013) identified in Peylin et al. (2013), four of which assimilated the observations at the sample time as opposed to using monthly means and all of which solved for fluxes at the resolution of the transport model or for small ecoregions over land. The T+SET flux estimate averaged over the RECCAP Group 1 models is 0.34\u00b10.27\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121. This is nearly identical to the average of the new models from this study (0.34\u00b10.27\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121; using CTE2016-FT, CTE2017-FT, CT2016, CAMS v16r1, and Jena s85_v4.1). Both estimate slightly positive T+SET fluxes that are only half of the RECCAP all-model average (0.93\u00b10.90\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121). Our NET land sink estimates using newer models are less than the previous estimates in the original T3L2 and RECCAP studies for the 1992\u20131996 and 2001\u20132004 periods. Conversely, our new estimates suggest a change in the T+SET flux towards greater uptake and/or less emission for these periods; we found a decrease in the T+SET land flux by 0.71\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 from 0.56\u00b10.32\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for the 1994\u20132004 period compared to -0.15\u00b10.43\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for the 2004\u20132014 period (Fig. S9). Then, to obtain a flux estimate less sensitive to year-to-year variability we calculate the fluxes for the full 11-year 2004\u20132014 period (Fig. 3d), for which we have five model estimates. For this longer period, the model spread is largely reduced, in particular for the NET land fluxes, and again we find near-neutral T+SET land fluxes. Taking all four of the estimation periods together (Table 2) all of our central estimates for T+SET are within 0.4\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 of zero. The tropical land fluxes are -0.2\u00b10.3\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for 2009\u20132011 and 0.0\u00b10.12\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for 2004\u20132014. This implies a consistent uptake of carbon by intact tropical forests over several decades.\nFigure 3Tropical and southern extratropical (T+SET) versus northern extratropical (NET) land fluxes for the periods (a) 2009\u20132011, (b) 1992\u20131996, (c) 2001\u20132004, and (d) 2004\u20132014. The new models used in this study are represented by squares and the average of the available or selected simulations is shown in blue with 1 standard deviation error bars. The pink line and shaded area represents the GCP2016 (river adjusted) estimates of the total land sink for the given period.

The TransCom 3 Level 2 outputs (Gurney et al., 2004) are shown in red, with the vertical gradient selected models from Stephens et al. (2007) as circles outlined in green and the rest as red squares outlined in black. The intercept of the regression line with the observed vertical gradient (Fig. 2) is used to define our best flux estimate with error bars estimated by the standard error of the linear regression.

Panel (d) shows the results from our new set of models for the period 2004\u20132014.\nTable 2Previous and our new best estimates (in bold) of the latitudinal partitioning of land fluxes over four time periods. All values are in PgC\u2009yr\u22121. Values are indicated by the model mean \u00b1 1 standard deviation or 1\u03c3 error uncertainties. Regarding the T3L2 period (Gurney et al., 2004), our new estimate for the 1992\u20131996 period comes from the intercept of the fit lines with the observations in Fig. 2b, and the uncertainties on these values come from the standard error on these metrics from the fits. Regarding the RECCAP period (Peylin et al., 2013), our new estimate for the 2001\u20132004 period is the average of the five new models from this study.\n3.3 Variation in retrieved global carbon budgets\nFigure 4Synthesis of globally integrated fluxes for the 2009\u20132011 period, in PgC\u2009yr\u22121. Each inversion is represented by a square and the model mean by a \u00d7 symbol. The GCP2016 estimates are a pink diamond, which is sometimes hard to see because it is superimposed in each panel by the gray CAMS point. We have adjusted the GCP2016 ocean and land flux estimates by the riverine flux of carbon from land to ocean to atmosphere (0.45\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121; Jacobson et al., 2007; Le Qu\u00e9r\u00e9 et al., 2018), decreasing the ocean sink and increasing the land sink. The magenta line and light-pink shaded area show the corresponding mass balance estimates from GCP2016. In each panel the line and equation shown represent the sum of the x and y variables, and thus the line has a slope of \u22121, and any deviation perpendicular to the line indicates disagreement on the sum. Here we use the total flux which by mass balance is the whole-atmosphere growth rate (see text), and for panels (a) and (d), the total flux \u2013 FF line also equals O\u2009+\u2009L, while for panels (b) and (c), the total flux line equals O\u2009+\u2009L\u2009+\u2009FF. Ellipses denote the variability around the model means of 1\u03c3 (darker gray) and 2\u03c3 (lighter gray). (a) Ocean versus land; (b) ocean versus land\u2009+\u2009FF; (c) ocean\u2009+\u2009land versus FF; (d) total flux versus -1\u00d7 FF.\nThe global carbon budget partitioning for 2009\u20132011 is shown for our suite of models and for GCP2016 (river adjusted) in Fig. 4 with the model mean and GCP2016 reported in Table . In every panel of Fig. 4, the light-pink error band shows the constraint imposed by fixing the values to those of GCP2016, and the associated equation is shown on the graph. The pink diamond represents the GCP2016 estimate while the cross and the gray shaded area show the model mean and 1 standard deviation in darker and 2 standard deviations in lighter gray. For the models, the total flux is calculated as the subtraction of the ocean and land sink from the FF emissions. Note that by mass conservation the total flux equals the whole-atmosphere growth rate (WAGR), but that WAGR may differ from the MBL atmosphere growth rate (AGR) defined by surface stations, because of sampling biases or interannual variability in tropospheric mixing or stratosphere\u2013troposphere exchange. GCP uses the MBL AGR (Dlugokencky and Tans, 2018) as an estimate of total flux and assigns uncertainty of \u00b10.19\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (Le Qu\u00e9r\u00e9 et al., 2016) for recent decades, with speculation that the relative uncertainty should decrease when averaging multiple years. Note that, even though the CAMS results systematically align with the GCP2016 estimates in Fig. 4, the two are independent, except for the FF and for the atmospheric data that serve to estimate the total flux in GCP2016. By mass balance, the total annual flux must equal the total growth rate integrated over the entire atmosphere, and this is what we refer to as the total flux.\nThe integrated ocean versus land fluxes are presented in Fig. 4a. The equation for the range of ocean and land fluxes that would match FF and the total flux estimates from GCP2016 is also shown in Fig. 4a. The models and GCP2016 agree well on the ocean flux with a mean of -2.04\u00b10.51\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 over the 3 years of 2009\u20132011. The multi-model mean of the land flux is -2.61\u00b10.42\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121. The GCP2016 land flux is -3.04\u00b10.5\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and thus overestimates the model mean. The cloud of model ocean versus land flux estimates are rather scattered around the model mean with a correlation coefficient of only 0.51.\nTable 3Global Carbon budget for 2009 to 2011, estimated by the Global Carbon Project 2016 (first row, with river adjustment) and by the suite of models from this study (second row); all values are in PgC\u2009yr\u22121. Values are indicated by the model mean \u00b11\u03c3 error uncertainties, provided by GCP2016 or by the model standard deviation.\nTo better understand the reasons for these discrepancies, and specifically to investigate how much of the land spread in Fig. 4a is a result of differences in fossil fuel priors, we plotted the ocean flux versus the sum of land and FF emissions in Fig. 4b. This figure shows a tight correlation across models for these two parameters (r2=0.93). Given that prior uncertainties specified in the inversions for ocean fluxes are typically smaller than those for land and fossil emissions are fixed, this implies, for a given ocean and FF flux combination, the models are adjusting the land fluxes while matching CO2 observations. While combining land and fossil fluxes together reduces the random scatter, it does not reduce the range of the continental fluxes, illustrating the fact that models do not simply compensate for biases in fossil priors with land fluxes, but rather that ocean fluxes are affected too (Saeki and Patra, 2017). Conversely, we plot the sum of ocean and land fluxes against FF emissions in Fig. 4c. This figure shows that the ocean\u2009+\u2009land total sink is largely controlled by the prescribed FF emissions. In general, the models use smaller fossil fuel sources than reported in GCP2016. Figure 4d compares the opposite of FF emissions versus the total flux, again defined by subtraction of the land and ocean fluxes from FF. The spread in models is not parallel to the line defined by the GCP2016 budget closure. We hypothesize that models that overestimate fossil emissions prioritize matching the spatial distribution of CO2 and thus estimate overcompensating sinks. The spatial patterns of the different FF priors must also play a role, as well as the strength of the atmospheric constraint on annual timescales imposed by the inversion systems.\nTaking the two extreme models the ACTM-CDIAC and TM5-4DVar estimates provide very different distributions of fluxes. ACTM-CDIAC suggests stronger land sinks, both over the NET and the T+SET regions, and a lower ocean sink while TM5-4DVar suggests the opposite. This leads to a range of around 2\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 on the model ocean sink. Because of an intentionally different FF source, but with the same inversion system, the ACTM-CDIAC and ACTM-IEA retrieved land fluxes differ by slightly less than 1\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and ocean fluxes differ by 0.5\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121. Overall, this analysis suggests that errors in FF priors are larger than the uncertainty prescribed to them or, more specifically, the range of FF estimates used by leading inversions exceeds the uncertainty that GCP2016 places on the CDIAC estimates. This implies that uncertainties in FF emissions do not adequately consider potential regional biases (Peylin et al., 2011; Saeki and Patra, 2017; Thompson et al., 2016). The large spread of model results along the mass balance line in 4C highlights the need (i) to reduce uncertainty in estimates of FF emissions and (ii) to develop modeling systems that relax rigid FF prior constraints and observational systems that can support optimizing FF emission estimates. For the period 1980\u20132015, the total flux estimates from GCP2016 are estimated by the MBL AGR of Dlugokencky and Tans (2018). Only background sites that are located in the MBL are used in this calculation. Ballantyne et al. (2012) calculated a sampling error of 0.38\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (2\u03c3) among the 40 sites and a GCP2017 estimate uncertainty of \u00b10.19\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (1\u03c3) for the period 1980\u20132015 with respect to the total flux. We show the model-retrieved WAGR (equal to total flux) for each individual year in Fig. 5 along with the GCP2016 estimate and error bars. The total spread in the total flux from the inverse models over the 3 years of 2009\u20132011 equates to 1.38\u2009PgC as shown in Fig. 5b. This is well outside of the uncertainty range estimated for the extrapolation of MBL measurements, implying several inversions are not rigidly constrained to match observed MBL AGR, even over periods of 3 years. Because CO2 is variably mixed in different years and by different models in the troposphere and between the troposphere and the stratosphere, some inconsistency between the MBL-defined AGR and the total flux of CO2 in the models might be expected. However, using CT2017 as a test case, the annual difference between the model total surface flux and the observed MBL growth rate over 2000\u20132016 has a standard deviation of 0.29\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and for 3-year averages within this period a standard deviation of only 0.10\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, which is much smaller than the discrepancies shown in Fig. 5. Buchwitz et al. (2018) made a similar AGR comparison using CAMS output of total column and surface data and also found good agreement with differences of only \u00b10.2\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (1\u03c3) on an annual basis. Another potential challenge to inversions having a consistent total flux during this time may be due to large interannual variability in natural fluxes, with rapid changes resulting from different climatic conditions from the moderate El Ni\u00f1o of 2009 to the strong La Ni\u00f1a of 2011 (Bastos et al., 2013; Poulter et al., 2014). This period has also been marked by rapid changes in emissions, related to lower emissions in 2009 during the financial crisis and a rapid increase in 2010 (Peters et al., 2011). However, Fig. 5 does not indicate that the model total flux estimates for the years 2009\u20132011 are more divergent than other years. Further work investigating these differences is needed but is beyond the scope of this study. In particular, the length of the assimilation window may have an impact. It may also be possible to force the inverse systems to agree, at least within the MBL, with the observationally defined AGR, and this may help to reduce model spread elsewhere.\nFigure 5Modeled total flux (lines), equal to whole-atmosphere growth rate, that is the difference between the global FF emissions and the land and ocean fluxes. Atmospheric growth rate from GCP2016, derived from atmospheric CO2 measurements made in the marine boundary layer by the NOAA ESRL flask network (Dlugokencky and Tans, 2018; Masarie and Tans, 1995) and GCP2016 assigned uncertainty (pink bands). (b) Shows the sum of the total flux for the 3 years (2009 to 2011).\nAtmospheric transport has long been a major contributor to top-down atmospheric inverse model flux uncertainty. We applied the technique of Stephens et al. (2007) to a suite of state-of-the-art inversion systems assimilating primarily surface observations to take advantage of the unique HIPPO global airborne dataset for independent validation in assessing fluxes. We also compared the models to each other and to the GCP2016 carbon budget synthesis. The major findings of these comparisons can be summarized as follows:\nModel estimates of the latitudinal distribution of land fluxes are remarkably consistent across models and this represents a convergence over the past 15 years of inverse model development. The standard deviation across our 10 simulations of the difference between northern extratropical land and tropical land fluxes is 0.4\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for the period 2009\u20132011 and 0.43\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for the period 2004\u20132014 across five models. These are considerable reductions from 2.1\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for 12 simulations in T3L2 (differing only in transport modeling) for the period 1992\u20131996 and 1.28\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for 11 simulations in the RECCAP study for the period 2001\u20132004.\nOur suite of 10 inversions gives a NET land uptake of -2.22\u00b10.27\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 (1\u03c3) and a net T+SET uptake of -0.37\u00b10.31\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for 2009\u20132011 (-0.2\u00b10.3\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for the tropics only). For 2004\u20132014, a subset of six models gives NET land uptake of -2.17\u00b10.36\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, T+SET uptake of -0.06\u00b10.11\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, and T of 0.0\u00b10.12\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, thus allowing for deforestation implying a strong uptake in intact tropical forests, in line with forest inventories (Pan et al., 2011).\nThe group of RECCAP models that primarily assimilated discrete rather than monthly mean observations agrees with estimates from our subset of five newer models regarding the lack of strong net emissions from tropical land. This is not too surprising because most of our models, with the exception of LSCEa, are the updated versions of the same models in the RECCAP Group 1 (Peylin et al., 2013). Those five models estimated a net NET land sink of -1.85\u00b10.25\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and our subset of four models covering the RECCAP period estimate of -1.71\u00b10.5\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121. Regarding T+SET, the newer model estimate is a source of 0.34\u00b10.27\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, while it is 0.34\u00b10.27\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 in RECCAP's Group 1.\nFor the 1992\u20131996 period, we define an update to the Stephens et al. (2007) result, using the intercept of the model output linear regression with the observed annual mean vertical gradient of 0.7\u2009ppm, leading to a NET land uptake of -1.7\u00b10.57\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and a T+SET flux of 0.12\u00b10.62\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 for 1992\u20131996. Our results for the more recent decadal period, the 11 years from 2004 to 2014, indicate a somewhat larger NET sink of 2.21\u00b10.34\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 and a neutral tropical land flux of 0.04\u00b10.13\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, in line with a trend of a larger land sink (Keenan et al., 2016; Sarmiento et al., 2010) if shared across both latitudinal bands.\nWe present our best estimates of the latitudinal land flux partitioning for the four periods 1992\u20131996, 2001\u20132004, 2009\u20132011, and 2004\u20132014 in Table 2. We present in Fig. 6 the time series of the NET and T+SET land fluxes from 1979 to 2016, using all simulations available in this study. This figure shows a decrease in the T+SET land flux by 0.71\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, from +0.56 to \u22120.15\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 between the decades 1994\u20132004 and 2004\u20132014, respectively. The land-use change flux estimated by GCP2017 was nearly identical for these two time periods (+1.31 and +1.29\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121, respectively), and assuming these numbers primarily reflect tropical land-use change emissions this implies an increase in the intact tropical forest sink on decadal timescales. Our re-evaluations of the T3L2 and RECCAP study results (Table 2) confirm that the sum of the tropics and southern extratropics have been near neutral for several decades, despite large-scale tropical deforestation, and in accordance with the recent literature on the tropical land carbon budget (Hansen et al., 2013; Keenan et al., 2016; Mitchard, 2018).\nAt the global scale, we find in agreement with earlier studies that our model results are strongly dependent on the prescribed FF emissions. While the total of global land and ocean uptake adjusts to match differences in FF emissions, this compensation is not perfect.\nOur suite of 10 simulations also retrieve surprisingly different 3-year whole atmospheric growth rates, as defined by the total fluxes. The model range is 1.38\u2009PgC over 3 years, compared to an estimated uncertainty of \u00b10.10\u2009PgC in CT2017 matching between MBL CO2 concentration trends and total flux over 3 years and a 0.2\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 uncertainty assigned by GCP2017. The yearly ranges of up to 1\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 in the model total flux estimates imply 0.5\u2009ppm disagreements in whole-atmosphere CO2 concentrations, and the 1.4\u2009PgC\u2009yr\u22121 range for the 3-year period implies disagreements of 0.7\u2009ppm in the whole-atmosphere CO2 concentration change over that time period.\nFigure 6Time series of annual land fluxes for the NET (a) and the T+SET (b). The black line represents the model mean and standard deviation derived from available simulations; the number of simulations is shown by the numbers below the curve. The standard deviation is shown only if there are more than two model simulations available. Estimates from the specific period (Table 2) are added as multi-year average and standard deviation (shaded area).\nAcross seven state-of-the-art systems running 10 inversions, there does not appear to be a correlation between posterior NET vertical gradients and the retrieved latitudinal distribution of land fluxes in winter and for the annual mean. This is suggesting that Northern Hemisphere vertical mixing, albeit significant in summer, is not currently the major driver of tropical versus northern extratropical land flux spread. However, transport errors can still contribute significantly to the flux estimates.\nRepeating the experiment in T3L2 where transport was the only thing that varied across models would be required to rule out other factors masking a vertical mixing effect, but given the diversity of modern inversion systems this is not practical. Having a common FF prior, eventually also optimized and with known uncertainties, would improve our ability to retrieve the natural fluxes. Other components, such as other features of the transport models, the prior fluxes, or the inversion method also drive the discrepancies in the global atmospheric budget. The ocean, land, and ocean\u2013land partitioning appear to be a function of the FF prior. This also results in large differences in retrieved total flux or WAGR. The increase in the absolute error in fossil fuel emissions and the large sensitivity of the carbon uptake estimates to those errors (Ballantyne et al., 2015) suggest that, despite being thought to be the best-known term in the global carbon budget, systematic errors in fossil fuel emission estimates limit our assessment of the natural fluxes and the ocean\u2013land partitioning from this inversion ensemble.\nOur ability to isolate transport effects in this study is limited in comparison to T3L2 in that many other features of the inversion systems also vary; however, this variability allows us to assess the state-of-the-art FF inventories and their importance in the retrieved flux estimates. Gurney et al. (2005), Peylin et al. (2011), and Saeki and Patra (2017) already demonstrated the importance of FF emission uncertainties in inverse modeling studies, suggesting the importance of temporally defined emission inventory. However, Peylin et al. (2011) found that transport errors were still the main source of uncertainty in regional inversions. With the aim of quantifying CO2 fluxes at regional scales, it is more than ever necessary to assess systematic errors of inverse modeling results with independent in situ observations. FF emissions could be optimized with the addition of additional species (Nathan et al., 2018; Turnbull et al., 2011), such as carbon monoxide (Bowman et al., 2017; Liu et al., 2017), although it can be challenging at the most local and urban scales (Ammoura et al., 2016).\nThere is a significant correlation between NET vertical gradients and the T+SET retrieved fluxes in summer only. This study reaffirms that systematic evaluation of posterior concentrations against independent measurements is essential to assess the biases and accuracy of inverse modeling systems. Future work will naturally involve comparison against CO2 observations from the more recent NASA Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) project, which is similar to HIPPO, but is augmented with additional flights over the Atlantic Ocean (see for example Prather et al., 2017) and an extensive atmospheric chemistry payload, and will involve the inclusion of models assimilating satellite total column CO2 measurements. It is possible that the larger observation coverage from satellite observations, expanded 14CO2 measurements, and urban- and power-plant-scale observations will help to narrow down the FF emissions, which in turn will allow us to better evaluate inverse model global and regional land and ocean CO2 flux estimates.\nThe HIPPO dataset is available online (Wofsy et al., 2011, https://doi.org/10.3334/CDIAC/HIPPO_010).\nThe supplement related to this article is available online at: https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-16-117-2019-supplement.\nBG, BS, and DS designed the study. BG and BS analyzed the simulations and observations and wrote the manuscript. SB, FC, FD, PKP, WP, CR, TS, IvdLL, and YY ran the atmospheric inversion calculations, provided results, and helped in the analysis of their model outputs. EK and SW provided the CO2 observations and guidance on their interpretation. All the authors provided feedback on the manuscript.\nThis article is part of the special issue \u201cThe 10th International Carbon Dioxide Conference (ICDC10) and the 19th WMO/IAEA Meeting on Carbon Dioxide, other Greenhouse Gases and Related Measurement Techniques (GGMT-2017) (AMT/ACP/BG/CP/ESD inter-journal SI)\u201d. It is a result of the 10th International Carbon Dioxide Conference, Interlaken, Switzerland, 21\u201325 August 2017.\nWe thank the entire HIPPO team for making these measurements possible and available.

        "raw_content": "Happy Birthday, Harrison Ford! Learn About His Fascinating Family Tree\nTo celebrate Harrison Ford's 75th birthday on July 13th, Emily Paulson of Ancestry explores how his fascinating family tree is rooted in show business.\nHarrison Ford turns 75 on July 13th.\n(Photo: GA Fullner/Shutterstock.com)\nHarrison Ford came to acting a little later in life. In high school, he spent time behind the projector as a member of the Visual Aid Service Club at Maine East High in Park Ridge, Illinois. (He was president of the Social Studies Club as well.) It was at Rippon College in Wisconsin, when his grades weren\u2019t looking so good during his last year, that Harrison decided to take a drama class as a way to bump up his GPA. He wound up hooked, but a look into his family\u2019s past reveals that the showbiz bug had been hovering around for generations.\nHarrison Ford in the Visual Aid Service Club at Maine East High School, 1959. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nHarrison Ford was born on July 13, 1942, to John William \u201cChristopher\u201d Ford and Dorothy Nidelman. John, who went by Christopher, was a native New Yorker, but in 1940, just before Harrison was born, he was living in Chicago where he worked as a radio actor. And he wasn\u2019t alone. According to the 1940 census, the Fords\u2019 neighbors included another radio actor, a \u201cshow card writer,\u201d several musicians, and a \u201ctheatrical agent.\u201d\nOne of Christopher\u2019s biggest roles was as a cast member on a popular radio show called Gang Busters that featured real FBI cases. The show was billed as \u201cthe only national program that brings you authentic police case histories.\" He had phenomenal success with the show, including tours around the globe. When he retired, he became an advertising executive and voice-over artist.\nChristopher and Dorothy Ford in the 1940 United States Federal Census. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nNewspaper entry about Gang Busters in Nevada State Journal, 1943. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nChristopher was the son of John Edward \u201cFitzgerald\u201d Ford and Florence Veronica Von Niehaus. Christopher was young when his father died of alcoholism, but prior to his death, John Edward Ford was a vaudeville comedian known as John Fitzgerald Ford. Looking at the New York, New York, Marriage Index, we can see John and Florence were married on April 9, 1905. According to John\u2019s passport application five days later on April 14, 1905, John and Florence lived at 1265 Broadway in New York City, a couple of blocks away from the Empire State Building.\nJohn F. Ford&apos;s U.S. passport application dated April 14, 1905. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nFlorence Von Niehaus\u2019s signature and address on her husband\u2019s passport application. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nJohn and Florence had only one child; however, Christopher spent a large part of his adolescence in a Catholic orphanage following his father\u2019s premature death and his mother\u2019s inability to raise him. Florence was born in New York in 1855 to Charles Von Niehaus and Delia Conway. Apparently Delia, like her daughter later, would lose her husband far too young because in the 1900 U.S. Federal Census 15-year-old Florence is living with her widowed mother in Manhattan. But Florence and her mother are not the only ones in the household. In total there are ten residents in their home. Delia appears to have run a boarding house that included several vaudeville actors, actresses, and magicians among the residents. In 1900, Delia and Florence had six vaudeville entertainers boarding with them, including the famous magician Lawrence \u201cLarry\u201d Crane, The Irish Wizard.\nDelia and Florence Von Niehaus in the 1900 United States Federal Census along with vaudeville actors, actresses, and famous magician Lawrence \u201cLarry\u201d Crane. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nA picture of Lawrence Crane featured in a Fort Wayne, Indiana, newspaper. (Photo: Courtesy of Ancestry)\nPerhaps Florence was introduced to her husband John Edward \u201cFitzgerald\u201d Ford by one of the performers boarding in her home\u2014or maybe he lived there himself for a time. We may never know, but one thing we can be certain about: acting is in Harrison Ford\u2019s blood. From his father\u2019s vaudevillian tours to his paternal grandparents\u2019 pasts, performing runs through Ford\u2019s genes like Indiana Jones runs from\u2014or toward\u2014the never-ending danger waiting around every bend.\nhistory & culturecelebrityfilm\nHappy Birthday, Mick Jagger!

        "raw_content": "Birthplace of Country Music Partners with New UK Music Festival \u201cThe Long Road\u201d\nBristol, VA-TN (May 22, 2018) \u2014 The Birthplace of Country Music (BCM) is partnering with a new UK roots music festival to bring the music of our region \u201cacross the pond\u201d just prior to BCM\u2019s Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion this September. The Long Road: A Festival of Country, Americana & Roots is a major new music and lifestyle camping festival set to bring the world-famous, inimatable sights and sounds of the country music scene to the UK. Taking place within the grounds of Stanford Hall in Leicestershire (located two hours north of London) from September 7\u20149, 2018, The Long Road will present one of the UK\u2019s largest, most authentic celebrations of country, Americana, and roots music featuring four stages of live performances, bespoke food events, and a wide range of themed outdoor activities.\nCurated by Bristol, Tennessee native Baylen Leonard, a well-known country music specialist and radio presenter in the UK, The Long Road will present an array of artists from iconic US stars to up-and-coming home-grown talent.\n\u201cWe first met Baylen at Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion several years ago when he asked if he could conduct artist interviews for his BBC radio show during the festival,\u201d said Leah Ross, BCM Executive Director. \u201cHe is proud of the history of his hometown and a huge supporter of our festival. He first approached us with the idea of partnering with a new country festival in the UK over a year ago. Now the Virginia Tourism Corporation (VTC) is helping us bring a few Bristol Rhythm acts from Virginia over to the UK to perform at The Long Road including Folk Soul Revival, Dori Freeman, and Andrew Alli. We are working with the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development to show the Born in Bristol documentary film during The Long Road as well.\u201d\nThe first wave of acts that were announced last month include country star Lee Ann Womack, acclaimed singer-songwriter Billy Bragg, multi-platinum-selling singer-songwriter Angaleena Presley, British country duo The Shires, popstar-turned-country music singer Una Healy, and Texas singer and winner of The Voice USA Danielle Bradbery. Reflecting the extraordinary surge in popularity that country music has enjoyed in the UK in recent years, The Long Road will also feature a strong contingent of rising star UK acts across the weekend including hotly-tipped London-based duo Ferris & Sylvester and country-soul singer-songwriter Yola Carter.\nMuch more than just a music festival, The Long Road will embrace all aspects of the country and Americana scene and, alongside its live music offerings, will incorporate an array of themed activities including moonshine and bourbon tasting, instrument and songwriters\u2019 rounds, lake swimming, a Southern-inspired food and shopping village, and much more, providing festival-goers with a unique, authentic country music lifestyle experience.\nFor more information about The Long Road and to view the entire lineup, please visit www.thelongroad.com.\nAbout the Birthplace of Country Music\nLocated in Bristol, Tennessee-Virginia, the Birthplace of Country Music (BCM) is the parent nonprofit organization of the Birthplace of Country Music Museum, the Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion music festival, and Radio Bristol. It is the mission of BCM to perpetuate, promote, and celebrate Bristol\u2019s rich music heritage; to educate and engage audiences worldwide regarding the history, impact, and legacy of the 1927 Bristol Sessions from which BCM derives its name; and to create recognition, opportunities, and economic benefit for BCM\u2019s local and regional communities. BCM accomplishes this mission through each of its primary branches (museum, festival, and radio station), special projects and events, and a multitude of community and educational outreach programs.",

        "raw_content": "Yakushima, a Japanese island is located in the south of Kyushu and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993. It\u2019s an extensive rainforest subjected to an eternal flood, as the rainfall of this island is one of the highest in the world. Water is the cause of the appearance of this place enchanted forest. In the dense forest of Yakushima, moisture, moss, fungi, the leaden sky, fog and countless other species known as Sugi tree, which branches and trunks are strange figures, as they are the protagonists of an unusual stage appearance, leading a somewhat enchanted forest like something out of a story; grey skies crowded with clouds, usually take some respite, leaving a small space for the sun, so can hardly stick out the clouds, even for a moment. Yakushima Island has an area of 500 km \u00b2 and only about 15,000 inhabitants. Is located south of the main island of Kyushu, and has a mountainous landscape with peaks as Miyanoura-Dake, the highest peak of the island.\nThe island is known worldwide for its dense forests and high humidity as it receives an average of 7,000 mm of rain per year. The enchanted forest of Yakushima is famous for its strange landscapes and is visited by thousands of tourists annually, also is considered a leading destination resort in Japan. Staying on the island is not easy because the services supply is not too wide, but there is a web hosting site offers from 180 Euros, which is the only hotel on the island located at the peak of a mountain.\nThis is a round-shaped island about 60 kilometers in the south of the Osumi Peninsula in Kagoshima. It has an area of 513 km2 of which 96% is a humid forest; the island has become one of the places more visited by nature lovers and exotic landscapes. One of the main features of this island is that the trees grow disproportionately, reaching 70 meters in height. In fact, the symbol of the island is a tree called Jomon-sugi, according to estimates, is about 7,200 years. It seems like a copy of cedar Yaku-sugi, endemic to Japan, which grows between 1,000 and 1,500 meters above sea level, surrounded by mist and taking strange shapes. This island of Yakushima contains at least 2,000 cedars that are over 1,000 years old.\nOn the island you can also visit the Onsen Hirauchi Kaichu where you can canoeing or bathe in warm water from waterfalls; the rainfall is one of the highest in the world, with stunning downpours can generate landslides, especially in spring and summer. Various routes were built for guides or visit the town of Yakushima, in the fourteenth century. Forests of Yakushima is famous for its odd corners; in autumn a dance festival that attracts over 600,000 visitors celebrated. The city is in the northwest of the island, facing the Bay of Kagoshima or Kinko Bay.\nYou can also climb the Monte Miyanoura Dake, 1935 meters high, or can visit the Kirishima volcano, currently still active. Yakushima Island is covered by dense forest that covered by the extreme humidity, reaches recreate explosive atmospheres dense greenery, decked out by the weird and wonderful shapes of branches as well as trees.\n\u00ab Loans for SMEs: the fuel that could make your business takes off \u00bb How To Identify Any Unknown Device In Windows?",

        "title": "IT Security Analyst & CISO Forum 2015 \u2013 Bloor Research",
        "raw_content": "BlogHome \u00bb IT Security Analyst & CISO\u2026\nThis blog was originally posted under: Security Blog\nThe IT Security Analyst & CISO Forum 2015 was a chance for CISOs, analysts, vendors and security professionals to get together and discuss what they are really worried about \u2013 under Chatham House Rules (that is, no attribution \u2013 which means that you\u2019ll largely get my interpretations of what was said here).\nPerhaps the key message was the importance of \u201clayer 8 security\u201d \u2013 the people issue. This was confirmed by a professional social hacker who, in general, claimed (very plausibly) to be able to get past any security, simply by asking to be let in, in the right way. In other words, she understands and exploits the psychology of company employees. Often, she is targeting and befriending disaffected employees (and how many large corporations generate such people as a matter of course \u2013 if company behaviour is routinely unethical, then disaffected or dysfunctional employees are almost inevitable). More often, she and her friends are exploiting what we think of as the better qualities of human nature \u2013 the desire of help desk personnel to be helpful (the clue is in the name), for example; or our desire to be kind to the disadvantaged and pleasantly incompetent. A very successful technique is to behave lke Michael Crawford of \u201cooops Betty\u201d fame \u2013 sooner or later someone will tell you which server to look at, what the login process is, even the password you\u2019ve forgotten, if you act like a helpless child\u2026\nAnd therein, I think, lies a huge risk, and possibly not the one you are thinking about. If you get too paranoid, you lose sales because you\u2019ll make the user experience for the 95% who aren\u2019t out to cheat you so horrid that they\u2019ll go somewhere else. And, you\u2019ll probably reduce staff morale to the point where you create opportunities for the 5% who are, who\u2019ll put up with any user experience, however bad, in the \u201cgame\u201d of getting past our defences. It seems to me that the defense against social engineering is largely good company ethics, good staff relations and good security awareness training \u2013 and a properly thought out (and well-trained) customer interface that is polite and helpful, but not credulous. Once you\u2019ve achieved that, then technology may be able to assist you.\nOne area where technology can help is with the privileged user problem. The best way for a serious money-making attack to work is via a privileged user with the authority to override controls and intimidate minions. There\u2019s an issue here, because suggesting that a top manager or the head of IT (or their, probably feral, children) can be a route for attack is severely career limiting in most organisations. Technology allows you to institutionalise appropriate policies and controls without getting personal about it \u2013 and once the privileged users have signed up to these, they can be enforced in a \u201cstage 2\u201d: \u201cno sir, I\u2019m not at all worried that you, of all people, are a risk \u2013 but you did sign up to these procedures and perhaps they should apply to you too, as otherwise it sends the wrong messages to the people we\u2019re really worried about; it\u2019s not me that\u2019s doing this, it\u2019s just the security tool you bought\u2026\u201d\nAnother area that got lots of discussion was BYOD (\u201cbring your own device\u201d) and \u201cShadow IT\u201d generally. It was refreshing to find a CISO who thought that BYOD had been a fact of life for years and that shadow IT was a good thing \u2013 it is getting the business automated, and without being a burden (that is, a cost) for IT. What\u2019s not to like? Well, there are risks, of course, but they can be addressed by providing easy access to IT mentors when appropriate and by security awareness training for the \u201ccitizen developer\u201d. Once you explain the possible personal and company consequences of, say misusing personal data in Shadow IT, the citizen developer won\u2019t want to do it any more than the compliance officer would want them to. It\u2019s simply a matter of balancing Freedom and Trust (both strongly emerging trends today, although I can remember managing end-user computing in the way I\u2019m suggesting back in the days of Eastyrieve on the mainframe, some 25 years ago) \u2013 in the interests of better business and employee welfare.\nSo far, as I intimated, it\u2019s been largely people issues, but there are real technology issues too. We all use software certificates to support Trust. It\u2019s how we know that when Patch Tuesday kills our PC, at least the updates really did come from Microsoft. But do we? Are we sure that Microsoft always manages its certificates well? There is evidence that it hasn\u2019t always done so in the past. How well do we manage our own certificates? Do we know where they all are, whether they are up to date, whether they are in the right place, whether they are even used? Now, those are real governance issues and ones that software tools can help with.\nTools have a huge place in security, to institutionalise and enforce good practice, and to manage the complexity that, un-managed, is the enemy of good security. But get the people and process more or less right, or well-understood, first, before you invest in tools (although you should probably expect to iterate around this a bit too, in a continuous improvement process).",

Unfortunately the site\u2019s listings are not complete, and neither is it wholly accurate. The same applies to the comparable Wikipedia site.\nSpecifically, graph analytics and graph visualisation are topics that are attracting increasing attention both from IT vendors and from users. Why? What is it about graphs that makes them useful? For what sorts of application and use cases might it be sensible to use graphs? Couldn\u2019t you use conventional technology to achieve the same thing? Indeed, what are graphs anyway?\nThis paper answers all of these questions. However, it isn\u2019t just a matter of deciding \u201coh yes, let\u2019s do graphs\u201d because there are different approaches to the implementation of graphs and these have important implications for performance and scale that will impact on what you can and can\u2019t do with particular technologies.

        "raw_content": "While doing a little research, I came across too much interesting (at least in my opinion) material to put in a reply to the previous post, Musial vs. Pujols. Besides, then it would have just been buried where no one would see it.\nWhen I made the comment about big old parks I was thinking about the cavernous centerfields of the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium in New York, the Pirates home at Forbes Field which was 457 feet to center and and 406 to the left field power alley and 408-435 in the right field alley and the squared off outfield of Shibe Field in Philadelphia that was 447 feet to dead center, 405 feet to the left field power alley and 400 feet to the right field alley.\nSportsman's Park had a pretty big centerfield, itself, at 422 feet, even though it had something of a short porch in right. But quirks of the Cardinals home until 1966 didn't make it friendly to lefty hitters. And they probably had some interesting affects on Stan the Man's numbers.\nWhile it was only about 310 feet down the left field line, when Musial played, there was a 33-foot-high fence that ran from the foul pole 156 feet into right centerfield. Musial, a line drive hitter -- as opposed to a towering blast hitter like Mark McGwire -- may have easily reached 500 homers if he would have played in new Busch Stadium.\nWhile the layout may have helped him hit more doubles and singles, Musial said it probably cost him some runs and RBIs, too.\nThe cozy dimensions belied the fact that a lot of line drive shots couldn't clear the imposing right field wall, even though they had the distance to go for home runs in other parks. \"The screen made it much more interesting,\" said former Cardinals right fielder Stan Musial who saw many of his potential home runs get sucked back into play by the imposing barrier.\n\"The ball would fly out there and the runner didn't know if it was going to hit the screen, go over it or how it would bounce,\" Musial said. \"It was hard to score (because outfielders played so shallow) on a single to right in that park.\"\nThe dimensions and the high screen in right favored high ball hitters over line drive hitters, though Musial and Rogers Hornsby never complained about their home.\n-- Baseball-Statistics.com",

This story of a young mother resonated with BookBrowse readers with 11 out of 14 reviewers giving it a full five stars.\nDebbie Downer? Not quite\nThe Last Days of Rabbit Hayes is the story of a young woman who is dying. It is about a family and how they get through this heart-wrenching emotional stage of their lives (Maggie S).\nAs a breast cancer survivor, I was not sure I could see it through. Several times I put it down, not wanting to face what had to be coming - but I am ever so glad that I went back to finish. This is a rich and rewarding book in many ways (Susie J).\nTo my pleasant surprise, The Last Days of Rabbit Hayes is a well told story - not about dying, but about living until you die (Karen J).\nAs soon as I read the first page, I debated whether to continue or not. I didn't know how I would fare with this type of book, but I made a commitment to read and review this novel, and I am so glad that I did. Beautiful, heart-wrenching, funny, sentimental are only some of the words that I can use to describe this wonderful, wonderful book. Using such an ugly subject matter and making it into this, is nothing short of miraculous (Barbara B).\nFamily Ties Resonate\nThe theme of family and friends is developed throughout in honest and realistic terms, and this reader found herself becoming part of both groups (Susie J).\nAlthough the book was very difficult to read, through all of my tears, I fell in love with every one of the characters. It is a real family with all of the love and anger and forgiveness and laughter that make a family what it is (Maggie S).\nThere are lessons to be learned from this family's grace and humor. The book resonated with me as I lost a sister to cancer. It rang true to the upheaval in emotions and the need for family to circle their wagons (Donna M).\nThe universal themes of death and dying and coming to grips with saying goodbye to a loved one are grounded in the specific details of a specific person in modern day Ireland (Kathleen W). What I love the very best about this book is the author's strong affirmation of both life and death, and the indelible link between the two (Susie J).\nToo Depressing for Some\nI just didn't want to read any more about this young mother with a 12-year-old child and a wonderful supportive family, dying. I just didn't feel like crying through another 150 pages. This book is not for the faint of heart \u2014 but perhaps someone who has cared for a loved on in their final days would enjoy it (Amy W).\nIn the End, Surprisingly Uplifting for Most\nOnce you accept the fact that Rabbit Hayes is going to die of cancer, it leaves you free to enjoy the close relationships she has with her entire family. This book is more about family and less about dying. In the end, it was uplifting in a way I didn't see coming (Dannielle I).\nNot many novels can have you crying on one page and laughing on the next. Also the characters are wonderful, funny, flawed (Diane S).\nThis review was originally published in September 2015, and has been updated for the August 2016 paperback release.

        "raw_content": "By (author) Craig Walker\nThe hit television sitcom On The Buses was a massive hit across the world and ran for seven seasons from 1969 to 1973. The success was in no small part due to the immense talents involved both on the screen and off. With its exceptional writers and a cast of household name actors, the series sprang from the screen to captivate audiences from that start and retains its magic to this day. Now, for the first time, author and custodian of the On The Buses Forum, Craig Walker, has compiled a comprehensive reference work for the whole series with over 1,000 separate entries. Did you know for example that the special effects for the film version were created by Les Bowie, who later won an Oscar for his work on Superman the Movie? Or that the lyrics for the film were written by Roger Ferris, the sound engineer on The Beatles last ever recording? An A To Z of On The Buses is a goldmine of information featuring not only fascinating trivia but also in depth interviews with cast members and amusing anecdotes from other members of the crew. Written to appeal to fans young and old from all over the world this book not only offers a nostalgic trip down memory lane but also full character, cast and crew biographies, details about the buses and studios used and much more. You haven't learnt all there is to know about this classic British comedy until you've read An A To Z of On The Buses.\nPublisher Mirador Publishing",

Time passed and I got a call from the chief justice\u2019s administrative assistant. She said, \u201cIf you were offered a clerkship with Chief Justice Warren Burger, would you take it?\u201d I said, \u201cMa\u2019am, that is not a question I need to think about.\u201d I started the second week of July in 1976.\nBefore my first official day, I put on my best little suit and drove to the court just so I could make sure I could find the place. I walked in and said to the deputy clerk at the time, \u201cMa\u2019am, my name is Wayne Drinkwater.\u201d I couldn\u2019t finish my sentence before she said, \u201cYou come with me now.\u201d She took me straight into the courtroom and said, \u201cNow you sit here and you watch this.\u201d It happened to be the last day of the preceding term, and the justices were handing down opinions on what was the biggest issue at that time: death penalty cases. The courtroom was completely packed. Most of the justices were reading condensed versions of their opinions and they were very emotional about it. I\u2019ll never forget that.\nDrinkwater\u2019s full response appeared in the article \u201cPart of the History of This Country,\u201d which was published in the 2018 Mid-South Super Lawyers edition of Super Lawyers Magazine.\nW.

        "raw_content": "Alternative Title: Sir Philip Anthony Hopkins\nAnthony Hopkins, in full Sir Philip Anthony Hopkins, (born December 31, 1937, Port Talbot, West Glamorgan, Wales), Welsh stage and film actor of burning intensity, often seen at his best when playing pathetic misfits or characters on the fringes of insanity.\nHopkins had early ambitions to be a concert pianist. He began acting at age 18 when he joined a YMCA dramatic club. He received a scholarship to the Cardiff College of Music and Drama, and he toured with the Arts Council as a stage manager and actor after his graduation. He then spent two years with the Royal Artillery. Upon his demobilization he resumed his acting career, making his professional debut in 1960. A self-described \u201cactor of instinct,\u201d he gained needed training by enrolling at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in 1961 and graduated as a silver medalist two years later. He first appeared on the London stage in Lindsay Anderson\u2019s production of Julius Caesar (1964). It was during this period that he appeared in his first film, the Anderson-directed short subject The White Bus (released in 1967).\nHopkins was accepted into Laurence Olivier\u2019s National Theatre company in 1965, and he understudied Olivier in several productions before attracting critical attention with his performances as Edgar in August Strindberg\u2019s The Dance of Death and as Andrey Prozorov in Anton Chekhov\u2019s Three Sisters (both 1967). At last attracting the attention of the critics, he soon found himself being promoted as the \u201cnew Olivier,\u201d and it was during this initial burst of adulation that he landed the juicy role of Prince Richard the Lionheart in the 1968 film version of James Goldman\u2019s play The Lion in Winter. In 1974 he enjoyed a double professional triumph when he starred in the American television miniseries QB VII and also played the role of Dr. Martin Dysart in the original Broadway production of Equus.\nThe Lion in WinterLobby card for The Lion in Winter (1968), directed by Anthony Harvey, featuring (from left to right) Anthony Hopkins, Timothy Dalton, Katharine Hepburn, and Peter O'Toole. \u00a9 Embassy Pictures Corporation\nDespite years of promise and glowing reviews, Hopkins found his career impeded by his recalcitrant attitude and battles with alcoholism. After waking up in a Phoenix hotel room in 1975 and not being able to remember how he got there, Hopkins resolved to reform: \u201cI led a pretty self-destructive life for a few decades. It was only after I put my demons behind me that I was able to fully enjoy acting.\u201d His career gained momentum, and his subsequent screen credits included acclaimed performances as a mentally unhinged ventriloquist in Magic (1978) and as Joseph Merrick\u2019s doctor in The Elephant Man (1980), as well as sharply etched portrayals of two roles previously associated with Charles Laughton: Quasimodo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1982) and Captain Bligh in The Bounty (1984). During this period Hopkins won Emmy Awards for his performances as Bruno Richard Hauptmann in The Lindbergh Kidnapping Case (1976) and as Adolf Hitler in The Bunker (1981). In 1989 he made his West End stage debut in the musical drama M. Butterfly.\nAnthony Hopkins. Hulton Archive/Getty Images\nHannibal Lecter, Richard M. Nixon, and John Quincy Adams\nWhile critical acclaim has been lavished upon Hopkins\u2019s rich, full-blooded characterizations of such real-life personalities as Yitzhak Rabin, John Quincy Adams, Richard M. Nixon, C.S. Lewis, and Pablo Picasso, the film role with which he is most identified, and for which he received an Academy Award, was that of the horrifyingly brilliant serial killer Hannibal (\u201cthe Cannibal\u201d) Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs (1991). He received subsequent Oscar nominations for his roles as a duty-bound butler in Remains of the Day (1993), as the 37th U.S. president in Nixon (1995), and as Adams in Amistad (1997). Other notable roles in the 1990s included 20th-century patriarchs in Howards End (1992), Legends of the Fall (1994), and Meet Joe Black (1998) as well as storied adventurers in Bram Stoker\u2019s Dracula (1992) and The Mask of Zorro (1998).\nJodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs (1991). MGM Studios\nHopkins revived his celebrated portrayal of Hannibal Lecter in Hannibal (2001) and Red Dragon (2002) before leading the cast of a 2003 adaptation of Philip Roth\u2019s novel The Human Stain. In 2005 he starred as a brilliant mathematician afflicted with mental illness in Proof and as a New Zealand motorcycle racer in The World\u2019s Fastest Indian. After enlivening the legal thriller Fracture (2007), Hopkins appeared in several big-budget movies rooted in mythology, including Beowulf (2007; as King Hrothgar) and The Wolfman (2010).\nLater movie and television roles\nHopkins played the Norse god Odin in Thor (2011) and its sequels, Thor: The Dark World (2013) and Thor: Ragnarok (2017). He also starred in the kaleidoscopic drama 360 (2011) and as film director Alfred Hitchcock in Hitchcock (2012), which centred on the making of the classic suspense movie Psycho (1960). In the ensemble action comedy Red 2 (2013) Hopkins stole scenes as an eccentric nuclear scientist, and in the biblical drama Noah (2014) he dispensed wisdom to the title character as Methuselah. In 2015 he starred in the crime drama Solace, playing a doctor who is assisting in the hunt for a serial killer. After playing a string of villainous characters, Hopkins appeared in Transformers: The Last Knight in 2017. His other notable credits included the HBO TV series Westworld (2016\u2013 ), a sci-fi thriller in which he was cast as the creator of an adult theme park featuring humanlike robots. In 2018 Hopkins portrayed the eponymous hero in a televised adaptation of Shakespeare\u2019s King Lear.\nDirectorial efforts\nIn addition to acting, Hopkins also wrote and directed the film August (1996) and the surreal Slipstream (2007). The former was adapted from Anton Chekhov\u2019s play Uncle Vanya, and the latter followed an aging screenwriter as he encountered his characters in real life. Hopkins played the lead in both films.\nFor lifetime achievement, Hopkins received a Golden Globe Award (2006) and a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award (2008). After being made Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1987, he was knighted in 1993.\nSteven Spielberg: The 1990s\n\u2026as a defense lawyer, and Anthony Hopkins earned an Academy Award nomination for his showy role as former U.S. president John Quincy Adams, who is importuned to defend the slaves before the Supreme Court.

I wonder then if I'd known the issue all along subconsciously, or if the synapses in my brain just suddenly--in that moment--made a connection that worked for the purposes of my story. Whenever I run across the name of \"The Clandest Inn,\" I find myself contemplating that issue. When I wrote this piece--in the moment of writing--it just . . . came out as the \"right\" name for an inn run by a spymaster. What do you think? Does it fit? What would you name such an establishment?\nThe Oathtakers turned at the end of the street. They rode past a newsboy who cried out the headlines from the daily fliers. Then, after making their way around carriages, people on horseback, and those on foot, they arrived at a small, weathered inn. Unattached to the buildings at its sides, it stood a mere two stories high. Though old, someone clearly maintained it well. From another, even smaller building tucked behind it, horses and carriages came and went. A large oak grew in the front yard, partially concealing from view, a sign hung above the front door that read: The Clandest Inn.\n\u201cI love the name of this place!\u201d Jerrett exclaimed with a smile, as the sign came fully into view.\nMarshall looked up. \u201cYes, \u2018The Clandest Inn\u2019 is the perfect name for a spymaster\u2019s place.\u201d\nWhen they arrived at the stables, the men dismounted. They handed their reins to the stable boys, whose hair and clothing was mottled with hay dust. After watching the youths walk the horses into the stables, they made their way to the front door.",

        "raw_content": "Past Productions Habeas Corpus\nHabeas Corpus was performed for three nights in October 2014, to very enthusiastic audiences.\nA Noda representative watched the play and gave us the following review:\nThis play could easily be catalogued as a farce as there were trousers falling down, lots of accidental groping and ladies running around in their undies, but Habeas Corpus is much more than a farce. It makes fun of the middle classes who seem to be obsessed with sex and their personal appearance. The Wicksteed family and their affairs brought lots of laughter and yet there were moments when the characters stopped and shared their thoughts with the audience and some of these were very moving. The play is held together by the housekeeper who links the scenes and keeps the audience informed as to what is happening. There were the standard farcical figures of the dysfunctional family, the pregnant young lady and the lecherous vicar, all contributing to an hilarious story. I couldn\u2019t pick out an individual performance for praise as all the roles were played to perfection. They fitted their parts perfectly and had obviously worked hard on their characterisations.The skilful direction was obvious in the clever groupings of the cast and the smooth movement from scene to scene. The costumes were well thought out and everything fell off or fell down at the right time. A simple set was all that was needed, a few well chosen seats and black backing, because with all the action on stage there is no need for a complex set.\nThis was first class entertainment and I love to come away from a production with lots to think about.\nOther reviews included the following:\n\u201c\u2026Your production was well designed, carefully thought through, and was well presented. The comedy timing of your actors was good and it was well cast. It had been thoroughly rehearsed, with skilful choreography of the scenes that approached slapstick\u2026.\u201d\n\u201c\u2026I spoke with and overheard other members of the audience on Thursday evening so I know I\u2019m not alone in saying that this was one of the best and most \u2018professional\u2019 productions I\u2019ve seen on the amateur stage for a while. \u2026\u201d",

        "title": "Microsoft: 'Sometimes Being Second Is A Good Thing' | Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "Microsoft: 'Sometimes Being Second Is A Good Thing'\nMicrosoft is releasing its first ever personal computer, the Surface, at midnight tonight.While it was initially pitched as a tablet to rival the iPad, the more we look at it, the more we think it\u2019s a rival to laptops. It\u2019s pretty evident in its first ad, which is built entirely around the experience of clicking the keyboard into the tablet screen to make something that\u2019s more like a laptop than an iPad.\nMicrosoft launched Windows 8 today in New York, and at the event we asked an executive whether the Surface was supposed to be a laptop or a tablet.\nHis didn\u2019t answer, but basically said it was both. He said that if you go through an airport, you\u2019ll see people with smartphones, tablets, and laptops. For one task, say, watching video, a person will pull out the tablet. Then for another task, like writing an email, the same person will pull out their laptop.\nMicrosoft\u2019s objective is to eliminate the need for that second step. It\u2019s supposed to be an all in one device.\nMicrosoft\u2019s head of communications Frank Shaw echoed those comments to us at the event. He talked about someone coming to his house to do some remodeling. The remodelers had photos on their iPad. Then when it was time to make an order, they pulled out their PC.\nWhether or not that works, remains to be seen. The early reviews of the Surface have been mixed. The general consensus is that the hardware is great, but the software is so-so. This is an ironic change for a software company.\nMicrosoft believes it\u2019s going to work. The executive we were talking with said Microsoft saw a lot of people in meetings with iPads propped up, using awkward keyboards to type notes. Microsoft thinks its come up with a solution to fix that problem.\n\u201cSometimes it\u2019s good to be second,\u201d says the exec, because you learn from your competition\u2019s weak spots.\nmicrosoft microsoft surface sai-us",

She talks with passion and conviction not only about the work she\u2019s been doing with some of the deeply traumatized survivors of ISIS\u2019s torments, but also about her opposition to the idea that bombing or any other military operations can improve the situation of the many Iraqis whose plight she knows only too well.

Fortunately, you don't have to empty your pockets on a new model to upgrade from your current car, simply shop our inventory of used Ford models here at Byers Ford.\nWhether you're looking for a budget-friendly alternative, prefer a specific model year, or just like purchasing pre-owned, there's a host of benefits to buying a used Ford vehicle from a used car dealer like Byer Ford in Delaware, OH.\nA primary benefit to purchasing a pre-owned Ford is that you save money, not just on the initial cost but also in depreciation and insurance fees. For example, when you buy a brand-new vehicle, its value rapidly decreases as soon as you drive off the lot and after about a year or two, the rate slows down. Therefore, purchasing a used Ford that has already passed this point will hold its current value more steadily.\nIn addition to retaining value, by purchasing a pre-owned vehicle, drivers can get more bang for their buck, especially when working with a budget. If you were interested in buying a brand-new truck while staying within a strict budget, you might only be able to afford an entry-level model, whereas considering a used Ford truck may provide you access to more feature-rich options.\nThere's a lot of reasons to consider purchasing one of our fantastic used Ford vehicles, but don't just take it from us, stop by and see for yourself. Our team would love to walk through all the options, answer your questions, and get you out on the road for a test drive.\nTags: used Ford trucks, used Ford cars, used inventory",

        "raw_content": "Some think sugar should be regulated like tobacco and alcohol, but could education work better?\nControl is the name of the game.\nWhether in business, politics, or our personal lives, whoever is in control is in charge, you could say, they have the power. Most of the time, those in control create rules and regulations concerning whatever it is they have control over. Oh, and associated consequences or punishments for those who do not follow their rules and regulations. When it comes to your health, you want to be in control\u2026don\u2019t you? Do you want to be told what you can eat and what you can\u2019t? What you should weigh or how much you need to exercise? Now, we will be first to say that we have a health crisis here in America and that there is a lot that needs to be done to get Americans moving towards a healthy future, but is government regulation really the answer?\nSo here is what is being proposed. In a comment article published on February 1, 2012 in Nature authors Robert H. Lustig, Laura A. Schmidt and Claire D. Brindis argue that \u201cadded sweeteners [like sugar and HFCS] pose dangers to health that justify controlling them like alcohol.\u201d They go on to say sugar is just as \u201ctoxic\u201d for people as alcohol and tobacco, so the government should step in to curb its consumption. In a CBS news piece the authors are quoted as saying \u201cSugar meets the same criteria for regulation as alcohol, because it\u2019s unavoidable, there\u2019s potential for abuse, it\u2019s toxic and it negatively impacts society.\u201d They continue by saying that, \u201cSugar is everywhere, and people eat up to 500 calories per day in added sugar alone, Sugar acts on the same areas of the brain as alcohol and tobacco to encourage subsequent intake, and it\u2019s toxic because research shows that sugar increases disease risk form factors other than added calories, such as when it disrupts metabolism\u2026 That\u2019s why it\u2019s time that the government steps in and regulates sugar in ways similar to tobacco and alcohol.\u201d That includes taxes, age restrictions and other policies to control the distribution of sugar. \u201cThere has to be some sort of societal intervention. We cannot do it on our own because sugar is addictive. Personal intervention is necessary, but not sufficient.\u201d\nAccording to CBS news HealthPop, Dr. Marion Nestle, professor of nutrition, food studies, and public health at New York University, agrees that it\u2019s time for policy changes, since many Americans take in roughly 25 percent of their daily calorie intake through sugar. Nestle when on to tell CBS news that she thinks regulation could eventually be possible, since many local governments are already enacting policies to curb sugar in schools or tax sodas. \u201cIf you have enough of those, the federal government can step in.\u201d\nToday it is sugar, but what comes next?\nOk, so we now have a clear picture of what is being proposed, and we all know sugar is bad for us or at least we hope we all do. In Naked Calories we reveal sugar\u2019s numerous anti-nutrient, micronutrient robbing traits that can eventually lead to obesity. However, while most of us can agree on sugars dastardly existence, we need to think long and hard before we hand our freedom of choice concerning our food over to the government \u2013 don\u2019t we? In the article sited above,they are comparing sugar [a carbohydrate] to alcohol and tobacco, but alcohol and tobacco are not foods. Here is the worst case scenario, first they say sugar is bad, and while most of us would usually stand up and give this a standing ovation, what happens when a year or two from now, government says \u2013 well, we are already regulating sugar a [bad] form of carbohydrate so why don\u2019t we regulate saturated fat a [bad] form (according to some) of fat, or casein, according to Dr. Campbell of The China Study and Forks over knives (and others), a [bad] form of protein?\nPeople who are looking to gain control always start with the obvious win. Sugar is an easy win. Even we, right now, feel very strange arguing against sugar regulation, but it is not because we are pro-sugar, it is because we are pro-choice! We agree that their needs to be an effective advertising and education program as to the dangers of sugar, but we cannot let them micronize the situation. Sugar is only one of the culprits out there robbing us of our health. We need to think on a larger more realistic and sustainable scale if we are going to get America\u2019s health back on track.\nRegulation or education?\nMany point to the taxation on tobacco in Canada and its positive effect on reducing tobacco consumption, but that taxation came with a very effective advertising and education program. Are we trying to say that somehow taxation overcame the addictive nature of cigarettes, or could the education program have caused Canadians to rethink their habit and make a conscience choice to stop causing them selves and others harm? Most importantly, and we cannot stress this enough \u2013 tobacco is not food! Some people say, wow, this is great, finally the government is going to do something about this problem by taxing and put restrictions on high sugar foods \u2013 it\u2019s about time. Even though sugar is found in many foods these days, can\u2019t we, with a little effort, avoid these foods on our own without government intervention?\nGovernment regulation of tobacco and alcohol is one thing, but government regulation of our food is not even in the same universe! We think its time for all of us, to start to take responsibility and control of our own health. There are many strong and intelligent voices in the nutrition world today that can be our guides through this learning process. The dietary philosophy you choose to follow is a personal choice and it should be yours and yours alone to make. There is simply too much special interest in government to effectively regulate our food without bias.\nYour health is in your hands\u2026for now.\nSo here is our bottom line. Our ability to chose which foods we eat and which ones we don\u2019t may be one of the most important freedoms we have left. That is because our ability to be healthy solely depends on our ability to derive our essential macro and micronutrients from our foods. While we do not think that there is any intention by the government to use this regulation in a detrimental way, and we agree that less sugar consumption could do nothing but good for our society, it does open the door to future policies concerning certain types of fats and proteins that may not be so clear cut. What if instead of sugar, this was a regulation of red meat, dietary supplements, or a regulation against raising your child as a vegan or strict vegetarian? While there are those who may find pros and cons on each side of these issues, we as American citizens still have the right to choose for ourselves where we fall on these issues and act as we see fit.\nPlato wrote the following line in his work \u201cThe Republic,\u201d around 380 BC \u201cQuis custodiet ispos custodies,\u201d which translates to \u201cWho shall watch the watchers themselves?\u201d Food is not cotton, it\u2019s not tobacco, it\u2019s not gold or any other unessential commodity, it is food! Its what nourishes us, keeps us alive, and is what is supposed to keep us healthy. We urge you to think twice before giving away your right to choose the food you eat. Remember, the day we give away control of our food will be marked in history as the last day we had control over our own health.",

        "title": "Emptying the Nest: How Parents are Helping their Kids Buy Homes - Mortgage Rates & Mortgage Broker News in Canada",
        "raw_content": "For parents who have the means to help their kids buy a home in today\u2019s pricey environment, gifting money towards a down payment is one of the best way to do it.\nIn February 2018, the Financial Post ran a story about adults still living with their parents. The figures are staggering. The number of adults still living at Parents Inn\u2014as the Post affectionately referred to it\u2014is up 13.3 per cent since 2001. For reference, young adults living with a spouse or partner is down 14.6 per cent.\nFor many boomers who, through modern healthcare and better habits, have been given a second chance at a teenager\u2019s existence (albeit with more money and less mobility), their kids are definitely cramping their style.\n\u201cI\u2019m 66 years old,\u201d says Steven James (not his real name), a retired mechanic from Oakville. \u201cI didn\u2019t work my butt off for the last 48 years to share my bathroom with my son.\u201d\nSteven\u2019s not alone. Boomers across the country are done with multi-generational living. And it\u2019s gotten to the point where they\u2019re throwing money at the problem. Of Canadian parents recently polled by CIBC, 76 per cent would give their kids a financial boost to help them move out, get married or move in with a partner.\nBut these days, given the average price of a starter home and the state of employment for young people (the record low since 1976 was still over 10 per cent), it\u2019s going to take more than just a \u201cboost.\u201d\nIf you\u2019re in a position to help your kids buy a home (and help yourself reclaim your home), you have many options. But a gift\u2014otherwise known as a living inheritance\u2014is among the most sensible. Here are three reasons why:\n1. Gifting money makes the most sense for tax reasons.\nAs a baby boomer, you\u2019re in the middle of an unprecedented wealth transfer that CIBC capital markets estimates to be in the range of $750 billion in cash, property and investment holdings. If you\u2019re in the position to not need the money coming to you, that windfall will just amount to a big tax hit. However, if you were to turn around and gift it to your kids, it\u2019s no longer a tax burden for you or them (unlike in the U.S., Canada has no gift tax). This Globe and Mail article delves into the long-term tax implications of gifting money: namely less for your kids to pay in estate tax when you die.\nFor all intents and purposes, gifting money is a way to take it off your books, without putting it on your kids\u2019 books.\n2. Gifting money makes the most sense for legacy reasons.\nShirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations.\nThis old proverb neatly sums up what happens when large sums of money are passed down through a family. You\u2019ve no doubt heard of wealthy heirs who finally get their hands on the family fortune, only to squander it away within a generation.\nWhile you still have some control over where your money goes, gifting a portion of it towards the purchase of an appreciating asset for your children is sensible.\nYou won\u2019t want to gift that money in the form of straight cash\u2014it would be too easy for your kids to spend it haphazardly.\nAnd you won\u2019t want to gift a piece of property over to your kids. This is seen as a gift of assets \u201cin-kind\u201d and the Canada Revenue Agency will treat the transaction as if you sold the property at fair market value. You\u2019ll be hit with a tax bill for 50 per cent of the capital gains, which could be substantial on an inherited property bought decades ago.\nTo gift the money for a real estate purchase, you\u2019ll sign a letter confirming that the money is a gift and isn\u2019t required to be paid back. On the morning of signing day, you\u2019ll transfer the funds to your kid\u2019s account (most primary lenders need to see money in the account before they complete the mortgage transaction).\n3. Gifting money makes the most sense for legal reasons.\nIf you want to help your kids with their mortgage and you don\u2019t have the liquidity to hand over a sizeable amount of cash, the other option is to co-sign or guarantee their mortgage. The problem with this approach is varying degrees of liability. By co-signing or guaranteeing the loan, you are assuming responsibility if things go wrong for your child if they can\u2019t pay their mortgage. You can potentially be putting your financial future at stake.\nIn other words, you\u2019d have to have the utmost objective confidence that there\u2019s no risk of them defaulting on their mortgage.\nGifting a portion or all of the down payment, like gifting anything else, severs the tie you have with the money. None of it belongs to you, nor does the liability that comes with how it will be used.\nBut the best part of gifting your kids money to buy a home\u2026\n\u2026will come when you are invited over for the first time and can see the fruits of all your labour: a better life for your children and their family.\nfirst-time homebuyershomeownershipparent purchases\nNext Article10 Ways Brokers Can Build a Reputation on Social Media\nMarch 14, 2018 Peter Dale Reply\nDan Yurman doesn\u2019t complete his last paragraph. The best part about gifting your kids money to buy a home is that, after visiting them, you get to go home that is truly your own.\nAugust 18, 2018 Robby Reply\nI just co-signed for my son on his very modest mortgage. I have no doubt that he is responsible to make his mortgage payments on their due date. His credit rating was not the best due to credit card balance that due to his youth he got carried away with. I know he is to blame but it really ticks me off that the bank gave a young kid such a high credit card maximum. He finally got control of it but damaged his credit rating in the mean time. Once you are in deep with a credit card company it is very hard to get out. I know my son. I trust him. I could let him wait but things are different today. He is paying someone else mortgage while renting and I would rather have him pay towards his own mortgage. This is a very low risk that I am willing to take in order to give my son a hand up in sorts.",

I recommend an emergency fund of three to six months of expenses to cover the unexpected things that life will throw at you. This amount of cash, sitting in a good money market account with check writing privileges, will give you easy access in the event of a financial emergency.\nI don\u2019t recommend extended warranties of any kind. They\u2019re just not a good deal. You\u2019re better off to self-insure against things breaking down, and putting what would have been profit and marketing dollars for the extended warranty company in your own pocket.\nPut retirement on hold temporarily Dear Dave,\nShould I stop making contributions to my 401(k) account for a year in order to save up an emergency fund? Thanks to you, I\u2019m 33 and debt-free.\n\u2014 Blake Dear Blake,\nCongratulations on being debt-free at such a young age. I appreciate the credit, but the truth is I just pointed you in the right direction. You made the sacrifices and did all the hard work. I\u2019m really proud of you.\nYes, my advice is to temporarily stop making contributions to your 401(k) until you save up an emergency fund of three to six months of expenses. It shouldn\u2019t take a year, though, to set aside an emergency fund if you\u2019re debt-free and making decent money at your job. Just make it part of your monthly budget plan, and get that emergency fund set up in a few months.\nHere\u2019s the way I look at it. If you don\u2019t have an emergency fund, but you\u2019re contributing to a 401(k), there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ll end up cashing out your 401(k) if something happens that leaves you with a large, unexpected bill. When you cash out a 401(k) early, you get hit with a penalty plus your tax rate. That\u2019s not a good plan. And that\u2019s just one of the reasons I tell people to have an emergency fund in place before they start investing.",

        "raw_content": "Heavy music can be like a painting in the right hands. When executed correctly, splashes of ethereal soundscapes color technical, tight, and taut brutality, yielding a portrait that\u2019s as aggressive as it is alive. In keeping with that approach, it might seem like Toothgrinder\u2019s paintbrush is literally on fire after just one listen to their full-length Spinefarm Records debut, Nocturnal Masquerade. These five musicians\u2014Wills Weller [drums], Jason Goss [guitar], Matt Mielke [guitar], Matt Arensdorf [bass], and Justin Matthews [vocals]\u2014certainly know how to create combustible artwork. \u201cThe album\u2019s overall theme is this dark, eerie charade through the night,\u201d explains Justin. \u201cYou could think of it as this torturous and fun carnival adventure. At the same time, it\u2019s personal.\u201dThe delicate balance of guttural guitar gnashing, polyrhythmic stop-start percussion, and the most delightful vocal schizophrenia this side of the Mississippi fuels this midnight waltz. It\u2019s an amalgam the group has unlocked over the past few years beginning with a string of independent demos, their Schizophrenic Jubilee EP, and tours supporting the likes of Periphery, The Faceless, After The Burial, The Contortionist, and more. However, in April 2015, they honed and focused this attack, spending an uninterrupted month in a Maryland studio with producer Taylor Larson [Darkest Hour, Capture The Crown, Periphery], creating what would become Nocturnal Masquerade. \u201cThe writing process was a lot different than past projects,\u201d he goes on. \u201cThose were very leisurely and without any urgency. With this album, we set a deadline to get something going. So, we sat down and put 100 percent of our focus into it. The pressure and concentration really helped us in a way. It motivated us to put out our best material.\u201dNocturnal Masquerade commences with the budding explosion of \u201cThe House (That Fear Built),\u201d which relays a relatable emotion. \u201cThat song was about the turning point for me where I really wanted to get out of my town, experience new things, and live my own life,\u201d admits Justin. \u201cI had this urge to do something different.\u201dImmediately after, the grinding freight train of \u201cLace & Anchor\u201d derails on a haunting refrain, which sees Justin \u201cdig deep to pull something out that I wanted to talk about but was afraid of.\u201d\u201cBlue\u201d offers a mid-album rumination on \u201covercoming obstacles in your way\u201d with a bombastic break and deliberate smash. \u201cDiamonds for Gold\u201d enlists the vocal talents of Periphery frontman Spencer Sotelo, expanding the boundaries and then destroying them in a hypnotic twin harmony. Justin continues, \u201cSpencer wanted to do a verse on one of the songs, and that one was perfect. It\u2019s about trading in something you have that\u2019s untouchable for something less. It\u2019s like selling yourself to the devil.\u201dNow, Toothgrinder continue a home state tradition of breaking musical barriers, originally perpetuated by New Jersey stalwarts such as Catch 22 and Dillinger Escape Plan.\nEscape The Paradigm was formed in late 2013 by brothers Brandon Brodzinski and Johnathan Rockwood with Donny Hoover III. The trio met shortly after previous bands each member were in went on permanent hiatus. Each member of ETP brings their own unique sound to the band, as well as experience that proved to be critical to the band's longevity.\nHaving plenty of live performance and studio experience, together and previously, ETP has become a truly polished sounding band, despite only having 3 members. ETP has been working for most of the last year and a half perfecting their debut CD. The trio managed to enlist the help of Evan Dunn of Alaya, who has managed to capture the true sound of ETP in 2017. Alex Zarek was tasked with helping the band create a hard-hitting music video, and managed to do just that. The trio has released a brand new music video, \"Mistaken\" which will be on their upcoming CD.\nWith a new album due this December and a new year fastly approaching, Escape The Paradigm aim to make their mark in the Chicago-land music scene and hopefully further!\nFounded in February 2014, Trip 6 (Urban Rebel), Eli Parker (Endo), Tommy Herres (SCARLET CARSON) and Jimmy Wooten (SKINMASK) were all looking for new projects as their old ones had run their course.\nWe all wanted to do something more modern, but still rang true to our influences. Something that we could aggressively market and tour on. So, we all met up in Miami after months of talking about doing something together and what came out was the first EP, \"Set in Motion.\"\nIn June 2015, Wooten and Six teamed with Corey Lowery (Saint Asonia, Stuck Mojo, Stereomud, Dark New Day) and Troy Mclawhorn (Evanescence, Seether, Dark New Day) on their new EP Pride Comes Before the Fall, and announced the addition of new members Bobby Thomas and Chris Dorame. They hit the road for their Riser Tour, once again with I-Exist, in July, wrapping up the run in September, but kept the momentum going with the digital release and lyric video for their debut single off of Pride Comes Before the Fall, \u201cFace Down\u201d. The band rounded out the year with the release of their much anticipated sophomore EP on November 10th, with a tour anticipated in January 2016.\nWe're still moving forward and, despite everything that has been an obstacle in the short time we've been a band, everything still keeps growing and getting better.",

Pete Rose deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. If the person who has the most hits ever collected during a major league career doesn\u2019t belong in the Hall of Fame, who does?\nRose was never the most gifted athlete in the game, but he worked harder than his peers. His aggressiveness and desire earned him the nickname \u201cCharlie Hustle.\u201d He was an All-Star at four different positions. He played the game the way it should be played.\nThe issue, of course, is not Rose\u2019s playing ability, but his character. Rose bet on baseball games when he was a manager of the Cincinnati Reds. He was banned for life by Commissioner Bart Giamatti, but Rose thought he could apply for reinstatement later. Giamatti died eight days later, and Rose\u2019s baseball hopes died with him.\nThe powers-that-be in baseball must think gambling is the worst crime against the game that can be committed. Other sports have not taken as hard a line.\nPaul Hornung was suspended from the NFL an entire season for gambling, including betting on Packers games he played in. Hornung is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the College Football Hall of Fame. Michael Jordan welched on huge gambling debts \u2014 and lied about it in a private meeting with NBA Commissioner David Stern \u2014 and gambled illegally with convicted felons while the rest of his teammates visited the White House, and he\u2019s in the Basketball Hall of Fame.\nBaseball\u2019s Hall of Fame has its share of individuals who are far from saints. Ty Cobb, the man whose record Rose broke and an inaugural member of the Hall in 1936, stabbed a black man in Detroit, but got away with it because of the racist views of the times. Cobb and Tris Speaker, another Hall-of-Famer, threw a game in 1919, according to \u201cCooperstown Confidential: Heroes, Rogues and the Inside Story of the Baseball Hall of Fame,\u201d by Zev Chafets.\nChafets\u2019 book also says Cap Anson, inducted in 1939, did all he could to keep black players out of the major leagues. Some historians refer to Anson as the \u201cFather of Segregated Baseball.\u201d\nGaylord Perry, who was inducted in 1991, was famous for throwing a \u201cspitball\u201d \u2014 an illegal pitch.\nRose might have helped himself if he had been upfront about his gambling, but he thought denial would give him the best chance of getting back into the game he loved. He finally admitted he placed bets on the Reds in his 2004 book \u201cMy Prison Without Bars.\u201d\nReinstating Rose would not automatically put him in Cooperstown with the likes of Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle and Hank Aaron, who recently endorsed putting Rose into the Hall. The 65 living Hall-of-Famers who make up the Veterans Committee would have to vote him in.\nRose has paid his penance with a long ban during which he wasn\u2019t allowed to even go inside a major or minor league baseball park. It doesn\u2019t seem fair for baseball to turn its back on steroid problems for so long, yet come down so harshly on Rose for gambling as a manager.\nThe Hall of Fame was created to celebrate achievements on the field. Rose\u2019s accomplishments make him more than worthy to be in it.",

Unfortunately, transgender schoolchildren have become a major target for discrimination.\nIn fact, to date estimates suggest that at least 17 state legislatures have considered some form of legislation specifically targeting trans people and their access to gender-affirmed facilities. Many of those measures including school bathroom bans.\nPerhaps in response to these proposals, the Obama administration issued formal federal guidance in August of 2016. The directive stated that any public school or university receiving federal funding must abide by federal anti-sex discrimination laws, which the administration believes to be trans-inclusive.\nDespite this guidance, states like North Carolina have passed and continue to enforce legislation, like the odious HB2, which aims to criminalize trans people for using gender-affirming facilities and pressure schools to go against federal law.\nIn a major new report entitled \u201cShut Out: Restrictions on Bathroom and Locker Room Access for Transgender Youth in US Schools,\u201d Human Rights Watch exposes the many ways in which anti-trans policies harm and abuse the rights of American schoolchildren.\nHuman Rights Watch conducted in-depth interviews with 74 trans students, as well as 50 parents, teachers and administrators from across five states: Alabama, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas and Utah.\nThough several states on that list have flirted with anti-trans student legislation, none have on their books legislation comparable to HB2. A number of those states are, however, fighting the Obama administration\u2019s federal trans-inclusive guidance in court and, indeed, have various policies that are anti-trans anyway.\nHuman Rights Watch identified several alarming problems. One comes from Texas mother Tanya H whose trans son Elijah is nine. She recounts how difficult Elijah\u2019s transition was at school because he lacked the right kind of support network:\nA year ago at this time, he was having a really hard time, and he\u2019d go into the girl\u2019s bathroom and girls would yell, \u2018There\u2019s a boy in here!\u2019 and he couldn\u2019t go to the boys\u2019 bathroom, and so he stopped going to the bathroom. There were a lot of meltdowns.\nElijah later became suicidal and was briefly hospitalized. As a result of all this, Tanya put him in a new school where administrators were fully aware of her son\u2019s gender and agreed to support him to the best of their abilities.\nSimilar issues may stem from a lack of staff training or a failure to understand trans student needs. For example, to avoid providing bathroom access for trans students, some schools have tried to use \u201call gender options.\u201d This, in fact, defies federal guidance and amounts to sex-based discrimination because it specifically segregates trans students from the rest of the student body.\nOccasionally, however, students will ask for those options if they don\u2019t feel comfortable using either facility. These students must be accommodated when possible \u2014 for example, by allowing them access to staff facilities. Yet, the HRW report cites several instances in which trans students faced difficulties accessing these facilities due to hostility from teaching staff:\nSilas G., a 15-year-old transgender boy in South Dakota, said \u201cMy teacher would grill me, \u2018Why are you going to the nurse, why are you going to the nurse, why are you going to the nurse?\u2019 And I got yelled at for using the faculty bathroom.\u201d\nThe report details how one child who attempted to access a staff bathroom was outed to his or her parents by staff who insensitively raised the issue. Other times, if children did use facilities that were aligned with their gender, they were forcibly removed from those facilities and faced disciplinary action. The report highlights:\nIn one incident, a student in Alabama was dragged from the bathroom by the school principal, and, in many others, students were told they had to stop using the bathroom immediately.\nMany of the young people who participated in the report said they simply avoided going to the bathroom entirely while they were at school. This puts them at risk of serious health problems including urinary tract infections and, potentially, future kidney damage.\nThere are also mental health repercussions. The inability to access gender-affirming facilities may, if the child experiences gender dysphoria, contribute to stress and anxiety.\nThe students also report having to use P.E. changing facilities and programs that don\u2019t match their gender. As a result, many children declined to take part in classes, which ultimately could prevent them from graduating. The report highlights how single-use changing facilities, staff facilities and inclusive physical education policies \u2014 for example, those used in California \u2013 can help to alleviate this problem.\nThe report recommends a number of strategies, but one key action is that schools adopt trans-inclusive policies at the individual and district level. This can give teachers absolute clarity on what is expected by federal law when they interact with trans children. Such a policy also helps to provide trans kids with a framework to understand their rights and responsibilities.\nNo child should ever experience harassment and bullying due to who they are, and no one should have to risk their education simply to live a gender-affirmed life. Clearly, we have a long way to go in order to make that a reality for trans students.\nPhoto credit: Thinkstock.\nThe best solution is to either install or change the designation of one bathroom to allow transgender students a safe place to go. The student could use the bathroom of the sex of their choice and the only other people in there would be transgender.\nWhy can't people just learn to mind their OWN messed-up business! This makes me SO angry!\nMarija K2 years ago\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqm36seHkyc -- ''Transing a 5 year old tomboy''\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byU3Ix1bLOA -- ''Children are not transgender''\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddfQK30Iyk8 -- ''Parents of girls and transgender fad''\nhttps://autogynephiliatruth.wordpress.com/2015/07/11/munchausen-by-proxy-medical-child-abuse-and-paraphilic-fantasy-in-mainstream-transgenderism/\nAbolish gender and problem solved.",

        "raw_content": "Evaluation of Thyroid Stunning From a Diagnostic Dose of I-123\nName: rhTSH\nThe purpose of the study is to find out if the small dose of radioiodine, that is used for the dosimetry study on patients with differentiated thyroid cancer, may stun the cancer cells and make the thyroid cancer treatment less effective.\nThis study plans to learn more about a medical problem called thyroid stunning. Thyroid stunning is a temporary decrease in the function of thyroid cells after small doses of radioiodine, a radioactive drug that is commonly used to treat thyroid cancer. Thyroid stunning can be an important medical problem in patients who have thyroid cancer that has spread beyond the thyroid gland (metastases). In patients with thyroid cancer metastases, some researchers believe it is good to give the maximum safe dose of radioiodine in order to have the greatest chance of destroying the cancer. The maximum safe dose is the highest dose of radioiodine that a patient can safely receive, and this dose is unique to each person. This special personalized dose is determined by first doing a dosimetry study. Dosimetry study is a planning study that calculates the safest dose that the patient can receive. Currently, it is not known whether the small dose of radioiodine that is used for the dosimetry study may stun the cancer cells and make the thyroid cancer treatment less effective.\nThere are two important types of radioiodine. I-123 is a form of radioiodine that is used to take pictures of the thyroid gland. I-131 is a form of radioiodine that is used to treat thyroid cancer. It is hoped that this study will produce important information that may be the first step in resolving the thyroid stunning question. Investigators will use I-123, a form of iodine that is currently not known to cause thyroid stunning, before thyroid cancer treatment with I-131. Investigators will try to prove that I-123 does not cause thyroid stunning and does not make the thyroid cancer treatment less effective.\nPatients are being asked to be in this research study because they have differentiated thyroid cancer, and they have no evidence of thyroid cancer that has spread to the other parts of their body. As a result, those patients thyroid cancer treatment with radioiodine will be a smaller amount than what is needed to treat patients with thyroid cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Thyroid stunning is not a medical problem for patients like these. However, by participating in this study, the information investigators gather from those patients treatment of thyroid cancer may help those patients with thyroid cancer metastases.\n- Patient must be 21-years-old or greater.\n- Patient must be status post near total thyroidectomy for differentiated thyroid cancer without known distant metastases and who are planning to undergo routine remnant thyroid tissue ablation with I-131.\n- Patients must qualify for thyroid ablation with I-131.\n- Prior bovine TSH use.\n- Known metastatic thyroid cancer.\n- History of cardiovascular disease that may adversely affect patient participation at the discretion of the primary investigator.\n- Patients on hemodialysis.\n- Patients with acute serious illnesses at the discretion of the primary investigator.\nContact: Michelle Carr, CCRP - 720-848-6137 - michelle.l2.carr@ucdenver.edu",

        "raw_content": "Recognising Strengths and Assets\nGrowing up, I felt unloved by God.\nI recall the teary conversations I had with Him about my disability and the hurt I received because of it. Why did you allow me to be born without an arm? There were times I even prayed for said limb to grow. No miracles took place in our little red dot. My prayers were often met with a long, audible silence.\nMy one-way conversations only ended when I started to rest, instead of fight, the silence. By quieting my heart before God and reflecting on my day, I realised I was emotionally affected not by my physical impairment per se, but by people\u2019s behaviour towards it.\nIt was an uplifting revelation to me. To realise that my disability was not the problem. Prejudiced attitudes and actions were. Despite my imperfections, I was a beloved child of God who could contribute to His Kingdom. I had the choice to either buy into the ableist misconceptions or focus on using my gifts to glorify God.\nThe same is true for other vulnerable groups. They or their situations are not \u2018problems\u2019. In fact, they have strengths and assets. Ms Nur Zakiah Jaafar, for example, was willing to withstand the severe pain caused by a rare disease to perform her motherly duties out of deep love for her seven-year-old son. And Mr Alywyn Keng did not let the challenges arising from his disability stop him from achieving his dreams. For both Zakiah and Alywyn, their family and friends were precious assets that provided them with much support and care.\nAs their family, friend, or service provider, do we recognise the God-given gifts of our vulnerable brothers and sisters? Do we give them the opportunity to capitalise and pool together their strengths and assets to achieve positive outcomes?\nThere is evidence showing the value of adopting this social capital-driven paradigm. A 2016 study by Beyond Social Services revealed that their one-year efforts in connecting low-income neighbourhoods to resources and relationships resulted in positive impact on residents\u2019 personal empowerment, support network, their sense of community, and mutual trust among neighbours. In the US, the Family Independence Initiative\u2019s (FII) similar approach to working with low-income families also yielded positive results. They provided families with the technology platform to strengthen social networks, access resources, and support one another. During two years of engagement with FII, low-income families report, on average, a 22 percent increase in monthly income.\nGerard Ee, Executive Director of Beyond Social Services, recently wrote in to the Straits Times urging the social service sector to create environments for such positive changes to take place in Singapore. \u201cAll of us have something of value to contribute and together we can build the community and country we want to belong to and live in.\u201d\nGerard\u2019s words echoed that of Christ\u2019s. We are all blessed with talents and gifts (1 Corinthians 12:7-11). It falls on us to recognise and enable our vulnerable brothers and sisters to use them so that they, too, can lead meaningful, dignified lives.\nStop seeing people as problems. They\u2019re assets who build social capital (The Straits Times, 3 Jan 2019)\nShe loses her fingers and toes, but not the will to fight for her son (Channel NewsAsia, 6 Jan 2019)\nOvercoming accident to regain purpose in life (The Straits Times, 9 Jan 2019)\nJorain Ng is part of the Advocacy and Research team at Caritas Singapore.

Sky Bet Championship clubs experienced a 25% increase, while there was a 17% rise for Sky Bet League One clubs who welcomed nearly 135,000 supporters through their turnstiles.\nIt was a match at Bramall Lane that attracted the fifth highest attendance in the EFL and the tenth highest in the country as a crowd of 25,821 watched Sheffield United beat Oldham Athletic, surpassing crowd totals at four Premier League matches, including the games at Swansea City, Hull City, Burnley and Watford.\nWhen compared to some of Europe\u2019s major leagues in Italy, France and Holland, Sheffield United\u2019s gate surpasses average attendances so far this season for clubs in Serie A (21,414), Ligue 1 (20,003) and the Eredivisie (18,907).\nBradford City also welcomed more than 20,000 fans to the Northern Commercials Stadium (higher than three Premier League gates), while a combined total of nearly 50,000 people turned out for games at Bolton Wanderers, Bristol Rovers, MK Dons and Oxford United.\nMore than 300,000 fans turned out for matches in the Sky Bet Championship alone - an average of over 25,000 across the 12 festive fixtures \u2013 and it was Newcastle United who had the highest overall attendance in the EFL and the fourth highest attendance of any match in the country with over 52,000 supporters witnessing the home defeat to Sheffield Wednesday.\nThat attendance would see the Toon Army outnumber average attendances in the Premier League and Germany\u2019s Bundesliga, as would the gate of 41,337 at Villa Park as Aston Villa welcomed the sixth highest attendance in the country for their game against Burton Albion.\nElsewhere in the Sky Bet Championship, both the Amex Stadium and Pride Park welcomed more than 30,000 fans for respective home wins for Brighton & Hove Albion and Derby County.\nIn Sky Bet League Two, matches averaged over 5,500 with a combined total of 66,634 adding to the festive numbers. The best attended match in Sky Bet League Two was at Home Park with over 12,000 supporters there for the game between Plymouth Argyle and Wycombe Wanderers while more than 9,000 made Luton\u2019s match at Kenilworth Road.",

        "title": "Hong Kong Legislative Council Approves Reform Package, After Democrats and Mainland Government Reach Compromise | Congressional-Executive Commission on China",
        "raw_content": "Hong Kong Legislative Council Approves Reform Package, After Democrats and Mainland Government Reach Compromise\nOn June 24, 2010, Hong Kong's Legislative Council (Legco) passed a resolution increasing the election committee that selects the chief executive from 800 to 1,200 members, and on June 25, Legco passed a proposal increasing the number of its seats from 60 to 70. Both reforms will take effect for the 2012 election. These votes were based on the Package of Proposals for the Methods for Selecting the Chief Executive and for Forming the Legislative Council, which the Hong Kong government released on April 14, 2010. The votes followed a compromise between Hong Kong's democrats and mainland officials, but reflect limitations imposed by China in a 2007 National People's Congress decision on constitutional reform.\nHong Kong's current electoral system, the proposed changes, and the compromise solution\nOn April 14, 2010, Hong Kong Chief Secretary Henry Tang presented the government's Package of Proposals for the Methods for Selecting the Chief Executive and for Forming the Legislative Council in 2012, according to a press release issued by the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Offices in the United States. Some Hong Kong citizens reportedly have grown frustrated with the pace of democratic reform. As reported in a January 27 New York Times article, \"The political system in Hong Kong is increasingly paralyzed, and street protests are growing more confrontational as public dissatisfaction on economic issues and a lack of democracy is rising.\"\nHong Kong's current system for selecting the chief executive and for forming the Legislative Council (Legco) is set out in the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China. Annex I of the Basic Law provides that the Chief Executive is selected by an appointed 800 member \"election committee\" composed of representatives of four groups: (1) industrial, commercial, and financial sectors, (2) the professions, (3) labor, social services, religious, and other sectors, and (4) members of the Legislative Council, representatives of district-based organizations, Hong Kong deputies to China's National People's Congress, and representatives of Hong Kong members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. As noted in a May 16 Financial Times article, the election committee is \"dominated by pro-Beijing businessmen and community leaders.\" Under the proposals, as passed by Legco, the number of members of this committee will be increased to 1,200, for selection of the chief executive in 2012.\nAnnex II of the Basic Law provides for 60 members of Legco, 30 of whom are selected through direct geographically based elections and 30 through \"functional constituencies.\" The Financial Times article refers to the functional constituency representatives as \"primarily representing industrial and professional groups.\" Former Legco and chair of the Citizens Party, Christine Loh, now CEO of Civic Exchange, a Hong Kong-based public policy think tank, describes functional constituencies in a 2004 article published by the Jamestown Foundation (reprinted by the Association for Asian Research (online)). According to Loh, \"some of the most influential voters are not even individuals but companies, making it extremely difficult to identify who really directs the voting decisions.\" The government's proposals added 10 seats to Legco, 5 selected by functional constituencies and 5 directly elected, thus not changing the current 50:50 proportion. According to a June 25 report (subscription required) by the South China Morning Post, under the compromise passed by Legco, voters who do not belong to a functional constituency will have the right to elect Legco members from a list of candidates nominated by the district councilors to fill the five additional functional constituency seats. The five additional geographically based seats will be directly elected. According to a July 2010 commentary in the Hong Kong Journal, \"This will give everyone two votes\u2015one in a geographical district and one in a functional constituency, with most falling into the new District Council constituency. ... This hardly upsets the current electoral system\u2015still tilted toward the establishment\u2015but it does set an important precedent by pointing toward a greater democratic quotient in elections to come.\"\nThe Wall Street Journal, in an April opinion, refers to the role of functional constituencies as \"a quirk of the Hong Kong system that allows business groups to elect MPs. Many of these groups are comprised of a few hundred people or less, and most are Beijing friendly.\" Though the functional constituency members are not selected through popular election, they wield substantial political power. The Basic Law, Annex II, Part II, provides that \"passage of bills introduced by the government\" require only a simple majority vote, but requires that the \"passage of motions, bills or amendments to government bills introduced by individual members of the Legislative Council\" require a majority vote of each of the two groups in Legco, those directly elected through geographically based elections, i.e. the geographical constituencies (GC), and those selected by the functional constituencies (FC). As Loh notes, \"(t)his effectively means that 16 FC members can veto any proposal raised by the GC members\" in Legco.\nThe proposals followed the Hong Kong government's issuance in November 2009 of the Consultation Document on the Methods for Selecting the Chief Executive and for Forming the Legislative Council in 2012, and a three-month consultation period, which ended on February 19, 2010. The scope of the government's proposals was constrained by a 2007 decision of the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) concerning universal suffrage in Hong Kong, which provided that Hong Kong could not elect the chief executive or all members of Legco by universal suffrage in the 2012 election, but that the chief executive may be elected by universal suffrage in 2017. The decision further provided that election of Legco by universal suffrage would only be possible after the chief executive is elected by universal suffrage, which would be some time after 2017 if Beijing agrees to allow direct elections of the chief executive in 2017. The next Legco election after 2017 will be in 2020, by which time 23 years will have passed since Hong Kong was handed over to China in 1997. According to the NPCSC decision, any bill for amending the current voting methods for the chief executive or for Legco must be approved by the NPCSC, thus giving the mainland authorities veto power over any proposals for universal suffrage in Hong Kong. In an announcement on the day the Hong Kong government issued its proposal, Qiao Xiaoyang, the deputy secretary general of the NPCSC, said that the legal effect of the 2007 decision was \"beyond any doubt,\" according to an April 15 report titled, \"Beijing seeks to end doubt on polls\" in the South China Morning Post(subscription required).\nImpact of the resolutions\nThe U.S. Department of State's 2009 Human Rights Report: China (includes Tibet, Hong Kong, and Macau) notes that the ability of citizens in Hong Kong to \"participate in and change their government\" is limited, and \"[d]isproportionate political influence is granted to certain sectors of society through the existence of small-circle 'functional constituencies,' that elected half of the LegCo.\" Democratic Party chair Albert Ho characterized the initial Hong Kong government's proposals as \"making small changes to a bird cage,\" according to the Wall Street Journal's April opinion piece. The vote for the compromise package brought what the South China Morning Post described in a June 28 article (subscription required) as an \"incremental boost to democracy\u2015but not universal suffrage.\"\nTwo provisions of the Basic Law address prospects for democracy in Hong Kong. Further, according to a China Elections and Governance article of March 19, 2009, \"Hong Kong's political future,\" Beijing had made formal assurances prior to the 1997 handover that Hong Kong could \"make its own decisions about Legislative Council reform without referral to Beijing.\" According to the Wall Street Journal opinion, \"Hong Kong was, after all, promised 'the ultimate aim' of universal suffrage for legislative and chief executive elections, starting in 2007.\" The January 28, 2010, article in the New York Times reported that the pro-democratic parties in Hong Kong are frustrated that China has \"delayed or backtracked on commitments it made in the 1990s to allow people to directly elect a majority of lawmakers in the territories Legislative Council.\" As to provisions in the Basic Law itself, Article 45 provides that, \"The ultimate aim is the selection of the Chief Executive by universal suffrage upon nomination by a broadly representative nominating committee in accordance with democratic procedures.\" Article 68 provides, \"The ultimate aim is the election of all the members of the Legislative Council by universal suffrage.\"",

        "title": "New Foreign Exchange Rules May Pose Difficulties for Chinese NGOs | Congressional-Executive Commission on China",
        "raw_content": "New Foreign Exchange Rules May Pose Difficulties for Chinese NGOs\nNew rules issued last year by China's State Administration of Foreign Exchange took effect on March 1, tightening previously-issued rules concerning foreign donations to Chinese organizations. The new rules add procedures and increase the paperwork burden imposed upon Chinese organizations\u2015including non-governmental organizations (NGOs)\u2015wishing to receive financial contributions from overseas organizations. Five months after the rules took effect, some researchers and media reports are beginning to note, with specific examples, authorities' selective enforcement of the rules in a manner that may target groups working on issues the government deems to be \"sensitive.\"\nChina's State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) issued the Notice of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Issues Concerning the Administration of Foreign Exchange Donated to or by Domestic Institutions on December 25, 2009, which took effect on March 1, 2010. Despite SAFE's assertion that the new rules are aimed at \"facilitating the receipt and payment of donations in foreign exchange,\" some groups, including non-governmental organizations (NGOs), say that the new rules instead have made it nearly impossible to access their funds, placing some of them in difficult financial straits.\nThe SAFE circular requires all Chinese organizations seeking to receive foreign donations to present the following information: an application stating that the \"donation is not against national prohibitive regulation\"; a copy of the receiving organization's business license; a notarized donation agreement stating the purpose of the donation; and a certificate of registration of the overseas nonprofit organization (with Chinese translation attached).\nIn a June 14 Asia Catalyst posting, one expert writes that while the regulations are \"not a sweeping shutdown of all NGOs,\" they have the effect of creating \"a chill that shuts some NGOs down, allows others [sic] NGOs to survive but limits the overall growth of the sector.\" A May 27 Southern Weekend (Nanfang Zhoumo) article cites the head of a Beijing-based financial management company for NGOs, explaining that the financial problems experienced by some organizations were not primarily a matter of how they actually collect their funding, but rather the authorities' selective enforcement of the rules, depending on what individual groups do.\nOne particularly problematic element of the new SAFE rules is the requirement that the donation agreement be notarized. \"Two months since the regulation came into effect, banks, notary service providers and non-profit outfits are in the dark about how to get a donation agreement 'notarized,'\" a May 19 Global Times article reported. Moreover, a May 17 RFA article stated that some notaries reportedly will also require some donors to be present in China for the notarization. In the Asia Catalyst posting, one expert describes the confusion this way: \"How many international donors have representatives in China, ready and able to show up at a notarization office at any time? Let alone staff poised to visit multiple notarization offices around the country, in every town where the donor funds local NGOs? Very few.\" An April 17 report in Deutsche Well (Chinese version) also detailed the difficulties that NGOs are facing as a result of the notarization requirement.\nRecent Chinese and international media reports suggest that the Chinese government's selective enforcement of the new SAFE rules has impacted different civil society groups in different ways, and that authorities may be using the rules specifically to target groups handling work and projects that the government deems \"sensitive.\"\nIn a May 17 interview with Radio Free Asia, the founder of the Beijing-based public health advocacy group Aizhixing said that his group is on the brink of closure because of the SAFE regulations. Aizhixing was forced to terminate its services in Kunming and to reduce financial support to other groups, but the most difficult challenge remains paying rent and salaries, he said. He also stated in the April 11 issue of Asia Week (Yazhou Zhoukan) that even if all goes smoothly, getting the grant agreement notarized alone can cost several thousand U.S. dollars, and take at least three months.\nThe Beijing Yirenping Center, a Beijing-based NGO dedicated to fighting discrimination against people infected with communicable diseases, has also been facing difficulties since the SAFE rules became effective. According to a May 27 Southern Weekend (Nanfang Zhoumo) article, the group relies on foreign donations for 80 percent of its funding. The center's managing partner said that his organization is on the verge of being \"starved\" of funds, and that this year it has had to cut back its three planned training sessions to one, and reduce its legal aid work to just providing legal consulting. On May 20, the Christian Science Monitor reported that the Center has been unable to get funding from the National Endowment for Democracy between November and May, and has been forced to stay open \"by borrowing money from friends on a personal basis.\" The same article also mentioned that about a dozen NGOs also reported that they were unable to comply with the new requirements set forth in the SAFE rules. The Global Times quoted on May 19 the center's managing partner as saying that \"more than 100,000 yuan is locked up in our foreign exchange account, and some cases have been postponed for lack of funds.\"\nFor more information on the development of civil society in China, please see Section II\u2015Civil Society in the CECC 2009 Annual Report.",

        "title": "Nebraska Stands Up to the Feds When It Comes to Property Rights | Charles Koch Institute",
        "raw_content": "Nebraska Stands Up to the Feds When It Comes to Property Rights\nOn Tuesday, Nebraska abolished the practice of civil asset forfeiture after Governor Pete Ricketts signed a bill that passed by a wide margin through Nebraska\u2019s state legislature. The new law requires a criminal conviction before property can be seized and limits the set of crimes for which people can have their cash, vehicles, firearms, or real estate seized by the state. In order for such property to be seized, the owner\u2019s conviction must involve illegal drugs, child pornography, or illegal gambling. This change to the law places Nebraska on the short list of nine states that require a criminal conviction before assets can be seized in most cases and among only three states where civil asset forfeiture has largely been abolished.\nThe practice of civil asset forfeiture has increasingly come under scrutiny because of the perverse incentives it creates for law enforcement. Because civil asset forfeiture law typically allows the vast majority of proceeds from forfeitures to go directly into law enforcement budgets, law enforcement is incentivized to aggressively pursue asset seizures rather than prevent or solve crime. Furthermore, under existing forfeiture law, seizing someone\u2019s property requires less proof than convicting that person of a crime.\nOnce an asset is seized, the burden of proof typically rests on the owner to show its innocence. This requires litigation\u2014which can be difficult, time-consuming, and expensive\u2014to get property back. For many asset owners, it simply isn\u2019t worth the cost to do so. The changes to the law in Nebraska were made after a variety of abuses of the practice in that state came to light, including a pastor having $14,000 seized during a traffic stop and a decorated Air Force veteran losing $63,000 to the state despite never having been convicted of a crime.\nOne area in particular where Nebraska lawmakers scored a major victory for the property rights of the state\u2019s residents was in getting the federal government out of state-level asset forfeitures. Previously, under a U.S. Department of Justice program known as equitable sharing, the federal government could litigate state asset forfeiture cases in return for 20 percent of the proceeds. The remaining funds would be reserved for state law enforcement budgets, thus circumventing state requirements as to the use of the funds.\nState law enforcement authorities would simply have to find a basis for federal involvement in a case, and seizures could proceed under the equitable sharing program\u2014even if the seizures were contrary to reforms made by state lawmakers. In Nebraska, more than $48 million of proceeds from forfeitures came from the federal government from 2000 to 2013. The new law significantly curtails this practice, limiting the use of the equitable sharing program for seizures valued under $25,000.\nWhile the Nebraska bill is a positive reform overall, the specific aspect treating equitable sharing shows that Nebraska lawmakers were sensitive to the problems the program creates for innocent asset owners facing an uphill battle litigating to get their property back from the federal government. Nebraskans concerned with the strength of individual liberties such as due process and property rights should be thankful to their legislators for this development, and states that are currently considering reform to their asset forfeiture laws would be wise to follow Nebraska\u2019s example.\nUntil the equitable sharing program is abolished once and for all, law enforcement in other states can be expected to evade reforms by processing their seizures through the Department of Justice. State lawmakers and ordinary citizens alike should be troubled by this federal loophole and the perverse incentives it creates.\nIt is for the purpose of discussing the Department of Justice\u2019s equitable sharing program that the Charles Koch Institute is sponsoring an event in Washington, DC, on April 27. All of the participating panelists have backgrounds in law enforcement, and their remarks, based on practical experience, will emphasize the range of consequences associated with the equitable sharing program.",

        "raw_content": "Arthur I. Cyr: George H.W. Bush leaves a powerful legacy\n\u201cOh, the vision thing,\u201d is how George H.W. Bush once responded to a friend\u2019s suggestion that he spend some extended time alone reflecting on his overall strategic outlook, rather than consulting others on the details of tactics. Bush\u2019s apparently dismissive answer was actually a confession of his limitations in trying to construct a political message with a strategic theme of broad appeal.\nHe was much more comfortable as a detail man. At the time, Vice President Bush was seeking advice on his bid to succeed President Ronald Reagan, initially his political rival, then his election partner, and ultimately his friend.\nBush, who died at the age of 94, provides important examples of both leadership and friendship. His formidable executive talent and energy brought him success, even in the difficult 1988 election.\nLagging in the polls to Democratic nominee Governor Michael Dukakis of Massachusetts, Bush\u2019s efficient, ferocious campaign machine relentlessly closed the gap. One campaign tactic involved highlighting the notorious case of an African-American convict who committed additional crimes while on a weekend furlough.\nDukakis had not initiated but did support that program. Bush campaign manager Lee Atwater often aimed for the jugular, and often succeeded.\nThe Democratic nominee had many other problems, including a lack of media skill and a bland public style. One unfortunate commercial had him riding apparently aimlessly in a small armored vehicle, wearing a helmet that was unflattering. Republicans seized the opportunity and ridiculed the beleaguered nominee.\nBush\u2019s alter ego, James Baker describes politics as \u201ca blood sport.\u201d Both learned that lesson in 1960s and 1970s Texas political campaigns, where both suffered defeats. \u201cWhatever it takes,\u201d is how Bush came to view using ruthless tactics if necessary to win elections.\nNevertheless, a magnetic Governor Bill Clinton (D-AR) and economic problems defeated President Bush for re-election in 1992. The effective chief executive was never a natural campaigner.\nGovernment leadership gave George Bush fulfillment. He represented the U.S. in China and at the UN, and led the CIA.\nIn the White House, policy successes included negotiating the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), ratified during the successor Clinton administration. Expanding environmental protection is another policy success of this active president.\nPresident Bush, with Secretary of State James Baker and other colleagues, led the Gulf War of 1990-91 with extraordinary discipline and thoroughness. He declared Saddam Hussein\u2019s invasion and occupation of Kuwait would \u201cnot stand.\u201d He secured narrow Congressional approval to use force.\nBush brilliantly orchestrated the comprehensive international alliance under United Nations auspices to get the job done. The coalition included Russia and Syria.\nTo preserve alliance cohesion, and regional stability, that war ended with the liberation of Kuwait. Pressures developed to depose Saddam Hussein, but Bush declined to do so. He rightly feared sparking instability, and undercutting the coalition that freed Kuwait.\nThe Bush administration hemmed in Saddam\u2019s Iraq militarily. The U.S. also conducted diplomacy that resulted in a semi-independent Palestine authority.\nWhen the Soviet Union collapsed, there was no public gloating. Rather, Washington focused on stability and cooperation in Europe and Russia.\nBorn to privilege, Bush also inherited a strong family commitment to public service. As a young Navy pilot, he survived Pacific combat in World War II. He also prospered in the rough Texas oil business.\nGovernment was a source of satisfaction, but he emphasized family above all. Among Bush\u2019s many policy successes, the Americans with Disabilities Act was a source of special pride.",

        "title": "What You Need to Know About Indiana Homicide Laws - Hayes Ruemmele LLC",
        "raw_content": "You probably know that homicide is the killing of another human. But in order for homicide to be considered a murder under Indiana law, that act must be intentional. If you\u2019ve been charged with murder in Indiana, you need a reputable Indianapolis murder defense attorney to assist you throughout your criminal case. Your murder defense lawyer will explain the process to you and will fight on your behalf. Below, you\u2019ll find some useful information pertaining to these crimes and how they are defined and prosecuted in Indiana.\nMurder By Definition In Indiana\nAccording to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), homicide was the 17th leading cause of death in the nation in 2014. But every state treats murder a bit differently. Indiana, for example, does not distinguish between different levels of murder (i.e., first degree or second degree) like other states do. All murder charges fall under the same statute. In addition to intentional and premeditated murder, murder charges may also be brought against someone who commits a homicide while committing certain felony acts. These crimes would all fall under the only murder statute in Indiana. However, the state does allow for voluntary or involuntary manslaughter charges in certain circumstances, like death brought on by a sudden emotional response; and reckless homicide charges when the actions that caused the death were not necessarily intentional. These are treated differently under the law.\nManslaughter & Reckless Homicide\nVoluntary manslaughter occurs when someone was killed out of passion or anger; even if weapons were used, it\u2019s more about the heat of the moment, rather than a cold-blooded act. The most common defenses for these cases include self-defense and infidelity of a spouse.\nInvoluntary Manslaughter occurs when a person is killed as a result of an A misdemeanor or lower level felony that inherently posed a risk of serious bodily injury. Vehicular homicide (which includes drinking and driving or distracted driving) is one of the most common examples.\nReckless Homicide refers to accidents that culminated in another person\u2019s death. These cases don\u2019t usually involve intentional violence. The defendants in these cases did not intend for these incidents to occur, but their reckless behavior still resulted in a homicide.\nCommon Defenses In Indiana Murder Cases\nIf you\u2019ve been charged with murder, rather than manslaughter, you\u2019ll need a reputable Indianapolis murder defense attorney to build your case and defend you in court. Common murder defenses may include:\nLack of Intent or Knowledge\nSome of the defenses listed may be used as partial defenses by your attorney as a way to reduce charges or obtain lesser punishments during sentencing. Your Indianapolis murder defense attorney will be able to ascertain what defense to use in your case.\nIndiana Penalties For Murder\nIf convicted of murder in Indiana, defendants can receive the death penalty, life imprisonment with no possibility of parole, or sentences of 45 to 65 years and fines of up to $10,000. Defendants who were aged 16 or 17 at the time of their crime cannot be sentenced to death; however, they can receive life in prison without parole (except if they are found to have mental disabilities). Children under the age of 16 cannot receive death sentences. Indiana law does permit sentence suspension for most cases, but a court can suspend sentences beyond the minimum 45 years in murder cases.\nIf you or someone you know has been arrested for homicide, it\u2019s vital to have a highly qualified Indianapolis murder defense attorney. To find out more or to schedule a consultation, please contact Hayes Ruemmele Law today.\nPrevious Post: The Indiana Habitual Offender Enhancement Just Got Much Worse for Felons\nNext Post: Indiana Business Fraud: Common Examples And How To Get Help",

        "raw_content": "Robert Jeffress in an interview with \"Fox & Friends\" on July 10, 2014. | (Photo: Fox News video screencap)\nMegachurch pastor Robert Jeffress of First Baptist Church in Dallas has argued that the most compassionate thing to do regarding the current border crisis involving immigrant children is to build a fence and prevent them from entering the country.\n\"The most compassionate thing we can do for these children is to secure the border,\" the pastor said in an interview on Fox News' \"Fox & Friends,\" broadcast on Thursday.\nHe used a comparison of home swimming pools in Texas: \"If you're a homeowner with a swimming pool that doesn't have a fence around it, and a neighborhood child wanders in and drowns, you're liable because you have enticed that child into a dangerous situation. The remedy is to build a fence.\"\nThe Southern Baptist pastor, who has often spoken out on political issues in America, added:\n\"What we are doing by having these unsecured borders is we are enticing children and mothers to make this dangerous journey. Yes, we want to show compassion to the children who are here, but the most compassionate thing we can do is secure the borders.\"\nTexas officials have compared the current influx of illegal immigrant children overwhelming the U.S.-Mexico border to a refugee crisis, and have called on President Barack Obama to send federal help and assist state efforts to stabilize the situation.\n\"We are facing a escalating refugee and national security crisis. Our military bases are turning into refugee camps. I never thought I'd see this in the United States of America,\" said House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, last week.\nBorder Patrol agents watch as demonstrators picket against the possible arrivals of undocumented migrants who may be processed at the Murrieta Border Patrol Station in Murrieta, California July 1, 2014. Some 140 undocumented immigrants, many of them women with children, will be flown from Texas to California and processed through a San Diego-area U.S. Border Patrol station as federal officials deal with a crush of Central American migrants at the border, a local mayor said on Monday. | (Photo: Reuters/Sam Hodgson)\nTexas Gov. Rick Perry has also called on Obama to secure the border, noting that he has deployed state resources to boost border security.\n\"Unless the US clearly sends the message that we are not going to allow this unimpeded flow of individuals into this country [instead of] 'If you get here you can stay here', it will be a deluge,\" Perry said at a special hearing of the House homeland security committee.\nEarlier this week, Obama and Perry met in Dallas along with local officials and faith leaders to discuss a possible solution to the crisis.\nChris Liebrum, director of disaster recovery for the Texas Baptist Convention, who was one of the faith leaders to meet with the president and the governor, told The Christian Post in an interview that the primary focus should be on the children.\n\"We need to care for the children who are here now \u2014 that was my message to the president. We have a big immigration problem that needs to be solved; and it's the lack of a good immigration policy as to why this crisis, this disaster, has come about,\" Liebrum told CP.\nObama, who declined an invitation to tour the southern border while in Texas, argued that if the House of Representatives had passed immigration reform last year, there wouldn't have been a border crisis.\nIn his interview with Fox, Jeffress suggested that Obama's decision not to visit the border is not important.\n\"Frankly, I don't care whether the president goes to the border, I want him to secure the border. And he has the ability to do that right now,\" the pastor said.\n\"You know, he said just a few weeks ago, he doesn't need Congress, he has a pen and a phone. Well, it's time to use that, and issue one of the executive orders to protect our borders, and to protect children in the process.\"\nThe pastor refers to executive action Obama has promised to take on his own without Congress on immigration reform, after the House announced it won't be voting on the issue this year. The president's plan prompted Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, to announce that the House will be suing Obama for his attempts to circumvent Congress.\nTexas Officials Call for Help as Waves of Illegal Immigrant Children at US-Mexico Border Create 'Refugee Camps'\nPresident Obama Agrees to Meet With Rick Perry, Faith Leaders on Border Crisis After Handshake Flap\nSarah Palin Calls for President Obama's Impeachment Over Border Crisis\nUS Border Crisis: Caring for Children Is Top Priority, Says Faith Leader Who Met With Obama, Perry in Dallas",

        "raw_content": "Subscribe To CBS Just Renewed A Ton Of Shows, Get The Details Updates\nCBS Just Renewed A Ton Of Shows, Get The Details\nIt\u2019s that special TV time of year again for a lot of primetime series. Midseason premieres have aired. February sweeps ratings are in. Numbers are being crunched and shows are being evaluated. We\u2019re in renewal/cancellation season, so news from networks can be very big. CBS has now announced a whopping eleven series that will be returning for another season of laughter, adventure, and/or tears. Blue Bloods, Elementary, Hawaii Five-O, Madam Secretary, Mom, NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS: New Orleans, Scorpion, 2 Broke Girls, Survivor, and The Amazing Race have all been renewed.\nOther networks have already been announcing renewals, so CBS finally breaking the news about what series will be returning to the roster come Fall 2016 has to be a huge relief for fans of CBS\u2019 lineup. Ratings juggernauts The Big Bang Theory and NCIS had already been renewed to the surprise of exactly nobody. Thanks to the ratings pulled in by all thirteen of these series, CBS will be able to finish this TV season as America\u2019s most-watched network. It will mark CBS\u2019 13th victory over the past 14 years.\nFans of 2 Broke Girls should be pleased to learn that the network shuffling the sitcom around last fall didn\u2019t affect whether or not it would be granted a sixth season. Elementary hasn\u2019t exactly been crushing ratings records in its four years so far, but the plot has thickened so much this season that the knowledge that a fifth is on the way is awfully reassuring. Despite Season 31 \u2013 no, that\u2019s not a typo \u2013 dropping the show to record low numbers, Survivor will keep on surviving. Madam Secretary can boast a Morgan Freeman guest spot from earlier in its second season, and the gimmicky premise of Season 28 of The Amazing Race evidently paid off for CBS.\nThere are some notable absences from the list of renewals. All of the eleven are shows that have already clocked in more than one season. None of the freshman series have yet to be officially renewed, although the odds are looking good, at least, for Supergirl.\nThe odds aren\u2019t looking nearly as good for The Odd Couple and CSI: Cyber, both of which are returning series that have not been picked up just yet for another go. Given that CSI: Cyber has been struggling in the ratings for some time and has had to deal with big name actor Ted Danson departing, fans of that show may want to start crossing their fingers and wishing on stars.\nCBS announcing eleven shows at once is promising that progress is being made, so we probably won\u2019t have to wait too terribly long for news about the rest of the lineup. We\u2019re already losing Mike & Molly, Person of Interest, and The Good Wife; knowing what else we shouldn\u2019t be counting on for 2016 \u2013 2017 could help us make it to May sweeps on CBS without too much stress. At the very least, we deserve some good news on the Criminal Minds front in light of recent events.",

And given that you're reading the Clare Florist Blog, which tends to have a certain, eh, floral focus, it's a pretty safe bet that you're a big fan of flowers, too.\nBut what would you think of combining the two?\nBecause that's exactly what one designer from the Maryland Institute College of Art has done. Anne Lee spent ages in her home photography studio making and photographing a whole alphabet of flowers. Speaking to thenextweb.com, she revealed her motivations behind this delightful project. Asked 'why flowers', she responded, 'I happened upon these flowers and couldn't resist!'\n' I got back to my studio and started sketching basic letterforms. Making lowercase letters seemed more economical, because there are similar shapes within the letters and I enjoyed playing with the ascenders and descenders. It was challenging to make sure all of the letters were approximately the same size. I started with a circle for size reference and went from there.'\nShe's also mentioned possibly releasing the typeface for free, which sounds like a pretty great project to us! After all, there's no better way to say it, than to say it with flowers....\nAll images copyright Anne Lee. Quotes sourced from thenextweb.",

An estimated \u20ac0.36 to \u20ac1 trillion of annual investment is needed over the next 15 years to set our cities on a sustainable, low-carbon, climate-resilient path \u2013 but cities face a series of obstacles on that journey that include high transaction costs, a lack of resources directed towards making green projects attractive to investors, and gaps in knowledge about available finance options and mechanisms.\nEIT Climate-KIC\u2019s Low Carbon City Lab (LoCal) is a global innovation hub and flagship programme that aims to help cities overcome these barriers and unlock climate finance.\nIt has four main components:\nTraining and capacity building, which delivers modular training to help build cities\u2019 capabilities in accessing finance and developing bankable projects\nProject preparation, which evaluates the financial and technical expertise of urban projects across the world in order to accelerate investment in them and to drive greater numbers of attractive, bankable schemes\nInvestment mechanisms, which develops novel finance initiatives to help address the lack of suitable financial mechanisms at city and national levels\nAn impact assessment hub, which explores ways to remove uncertainty in national and international frameworks, deal with high costs and tackle the complexity of impact assessment.\nThese four major areas of focus are approached in an integrated manner, with a view to understanding how they interact.\nLoCal is involved in projects around the world under each of its banners. LoCal\u2019s Cities Climate Finance Training Initiative, for example, worked with more than 20 Moroccan and Tunisian local authorities in the run-up to COP22; several investment mechanism schemes are underway, including the Green Bonds for Cities programme; while the impact assessment hub is involved in a range of schemes, including IM4CT, which is exploring how mobile phone data can be used to monitor traffic flow and emissions in cities.\nEIT Climate-KIC has managed to establish a collaborative environment in which cities, NGOs, public and private investors and solution providers can come together to unlock climate finance for cities. EIT Climate-KIC is adept at bringing organisations out of their comfort zones and creating the bonds between the public and private sectors necessary for climate innovation. And working together, LoCaL and EIT Climate-KIC empower cities to take climate action by enabling them to pilot the kinds of innovative financial solutions they need to fulfil their ambitions.",

        "raw_content": "Advanced Training, Bouldering Training, Concentrated Loading, General Training, Planning, Program Design, Tactics\nIt doesn\u2019t really matter what I write. It seems that within two hours of putting an article up, I get a \u201cyeah, but\u2026\u201d email explaining how whatever I wrote just won\u2019t work in x program and could I please explain how one might do y\u2026 Clearly, most of us have all the time in the world to dedicate to analysis and planning, but have very little time for execution and review. A few weeks back, I put out a piece on intermediate bouldering, which prompted emails and Facebook messages asking me to write an article for a V3 climber instead. I got almost the same email from someone asking about a V11 article.\nA good first step would be to read the article and realize that it\u2019s not about the grade, but about the climber\u2019s adaptation level \u2013 chances are you can adapt at the intermediate level whether you climb V3 or V11. The article you\u2019re reading now is similar. Regardless of what your max grade is, the following information might not be appropriate for you. This is a highly advanced training strategy that you can use for breaking hard plateaus, but should not be taken lightly. When your plan is failing to produce and you seem to just be getting back to the same level season in and season out, a major change is needed. Short of moving to a new area or taking an extended holiday in Flatanger, there is one technique supported by science that stands out above all others:concentrated loading.\nConcentrated Loading is characterized by planning a large increase in volume of training while holding intensity constant. Along with this increase comes a big decrease in sport-specific indicators (i.e. you\u2019ll start to really suck at climbing). As the volume is reduced in the ensuing weeks, those indicators go up, and within a short period, should exceed the levels you could attain using a normal training program. OK, so clearly everyone should get on board, right?\nWell\u2026the problem is that only a climber with a very high work capacity (built over several years) will be able to handle a concentrated loading block and come out on top. Most of us will overreach dip below baseline levels, and suffer the effects of overtraining for a month or two. Only a climber with 5+ years of solid training should consider such a plan. You\u2019ll want to be the kind of climber that can climb two days on with no decline in performance. You\u2019ll want to regularly train 5+ days per week, and have optimized your body composition and your total body strength and power. If this is not already you, it\u2019s best to stick with a normal \u201cdistributed\u201d loading program until your capacities are up.\nAlong the same lines, you\u2019ll want to make sure all your \u201cbig rocks\u201d are taken care of first. Are you sleeping 8-10 hours per night? Are you getting enough protein? Are you keeping the simple sugars down? Do you have good base strength?\nYou\u2019ll remember that I am not a big fan of seeking out fatigue or soreness as an indicator of good training. Likewise, a well-planned training program carefully touches these areas, and an athlete can progress successfully by avoiding both most of the time. In concentrated loading programs, substantial soreness and fatigue are both acceptable and expected outcomes. Though neither is an indicator of the program\u2019s efficacy, both will occur, especially in the latter half of a concentrated loading week.\nPistilli\u2019s (2008) research utilized blocks of 1-3 weeks of \u201cfunctional overreaching\u201c, followed by a resumption of normal training volumes. Athletes were subject to a 100 to 200% increase in total weekly volume, then were asked to return to normal training in the following weeks. Somewhere between two and five weeks after the overload cycle, they experienced the expected supercompensation.\nZatsiorsky introduced yet another term, the impact microcycle, for a concentrated loading week. He suggested athletes double their training load for a 1 week period followed by 3 weeks of normal or reduced load. The results of both of the above examples appear to be similar.\nIntroducing Concentrated Loading Into Your Training\nWhen you are ready to start testing this on yourself, make sure to review whether you are ready for it. You should be free of injury, feeling good emotionally, and be coming off a recovery period following a high-performance season. Load parameters are suggested in the table below:\nYou should have really solid data on how many hours per week you\u2019ve been training and at what intensities. If you don\u2019t, you\u2019re not a good candidate for success with this type of training.\nI suggest backing off by about 10% the week before your concentrated load week, then simply double the volume of each of your sessions. If you are typically bouldering for 90 minutes each week, simply boulder 180, and don\u2019t worry about how you split it up. If your weight training involves doing 5\u00d72 deads, take it up to 10 sets, but stick with the same 2 reps and hold the weight the same. Don\u2019t change the order of the exercises, the weights, the difficult of the problems, or any other intensity parameter.\nIn just looking at total training hours, your loading cycle might look like this:\nLast \u201cnormal\u201d week: 10 hours\nPre-concentrated loading week:9 hours\nConcentrated loading week: 20 hours\nFirst week after: 6-10 hours\nSecond week after: 8-10 hours\nThird week after: 10 hours\nThis is where training data come in. Just feeling better or stronger or more powerful isn\u2019t enough. Your performance parameters must improve in order to declare the program a success. Depending on the cycle, these parameters will change. If, for example, you are on a strength-building phase, you should know your 10 second max hang, your 1RM pull-up, and some measure of total body or leg strength. Regular campus board users can use standard board moves as a test of explosive strength. The trick is to eliminate parameters where technique can help you, such as simply testing on hard boulder problems.\nOnce again, I\u2019ll reiterate that this plan is not for everyone. If you\u2019re not physically at the top of your game, this type of cycle will be more destructive than useful.",

        "raw_content": "ARGENTINA AT THE RUBICON - SET TO LOSE ITS SOVEREIGNTY TO ASSET STRIPPING NORTHERN BANKS...\nI have spent the past two weeks in Argentina, getting a feel for the country, and despite being a Brit (Malvinas / Falklands legacy) was treated in a warm and friendly manner by the locals - I like the Argies. Of course one motive for going there at this time was to have a great vacation on the cheap, thanks to the super favorable exchange rate. If you have US dollars, you can live like a Prince for peanuts, and I did. The trick is to do this before the riots and strikes start.\nStatue of General San Martin, Jesus Maria, Cordoba province.\nThe reason for writing this report is not to eulogise about my great vacation there but to draw your attention to a much more serious matter, in order to give what support I can to a country that may be being set up to be asset stripped by the global elites, rather like Greece was. Despite its problems, Argentina is, or has been up to now, a proud and independent sovereign country with a unique identity, which automatically means that it is an anathema to the global elites, who have their sights set on plundering it economically and destroying its independance. How will they achieve this? - they will use their tried and tested storyboard, which is to encourage the country to overspend to the point that it cannot balance its books and then offer it salvation via a loan from the IMF (International Monetary Fund), and it is the conditions attached to the loan and its servicing that allow the elites to \"get their foot in the door\" and start dictating how the country should be run, and what it has to do, and it just so happens that those conditions will extend to selling off the country's public assets to the lender's crony connections and corporations owned by the elites for pennies on the dollar, which allows them to strip mine the country and simultaneously reduce it to a state of servitude. No finer example of this process can be provided than that of Greece, which was set up for destruction by the EU elites and the IMF, and \"sold down the river\" by its traitorous Tsipras government. Greece has been destroyed and left for dead as a dependant shell, with many of its key public assets sold off to foreign racketeers, as set out in Paul Craig Roberts' sobering assessment The Genocide of the Greek Nation. This has meaning for me as I used to live on a Greek island during the golden years when the Drachma was still in use, and both the locals and the tourists were happy - before the EU vampires showed up. Argentinians who want to avoid a similar fate for their country would do well to study what happened to Greece carefully, and then be ready to take appropriate action.\nAt first I thought that President Mauricio Macri was \"just what the doctor ordered\" for Argentina - a Right leaning businessman politiican who would clean up the mess left by the corruption of the Kirchners, but lately I have started to view him with deep suspicion. Why? - because after coming to power he went on a Keynesian style spending binge which got the country into difficulties that have been exacerbated by the relentless rise of the dollar. It is now beginning to look like this was intentional and that Macri is a henchman of the elites whose job was to get the country into severe budgetary difficulties, and then go \"cap in hand\" to the IMF for a bailout, which is exactly what the transnational elites want so that they can take control of the country and then plunder its resources on the cheap, by selling off its public assets and granting contracts on favorable terms to overseas corporations etc.\nFor those of you who understand Spanish this is a good one - seen on a wall in Formosa.\nThe outlook for Argentina is grim, with high inflation trending in the direction of hyperinflation, and economic and socal privation and dislocation looming as foreign interests prepare to plunder the country. If Argentinians put their hands up and surrender like the Greeks did, they will end up like them - destitute and with no future AND no country to call their own. Argentinians who don't want this outcome will have to fight - fight to get rid of a government that is preparing to sell out their country to foreign pirates, by whatever means necessary. This will mean rejection of the IMF and overseas \"assistance\" that comes with compromising conditions, and accepting whatever austerity and possible economic depression that this may lead to, with an awareness that foreign elites may then resort to trying to break the country by imposing an economic blockade and sanctions. Given that the entire Western world is heading for economic collapse brought on by extreme debt, going it alone may actually end up as the much better option over the long-term, despite whatever near-term problems that it will involve.\nIf the northern asset strippers take over, politically incorrect posters like this will not be tolerated. It reads \"For an Argentinian there is no-one better than another Argentinian\". Seen in the town of Formosa, Formosa province.\nThe Argies still covet the Malvinas (Falklands), which is perfectly understandable when you look at where they are on a map. The reason that UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher launched a military invasion soon after the Argies reclaimed them in 1982 was threefold. It was not, as the official story depicts, to protect the rights of a bunch of patriotic sheep farmers who would be just as happy on the Outer Hebrides (and it would have cost a lot less in lives and money to relocate them there). It was because Mrs Thatcher was flagging in the polls ahead of an election, and the patriotic jingoism aroused by the retaking of the Malvinas helped get her re-elected. In addition, the British ruling class had their eyes on the potential oil and gas reserves on the Malvinas shelf and also figured that ownership of the Malvinas would give them territorial claims in Antartica, and there was also a 4th reason - to demonstrate to the world that the almost toothless lion still had bite. The following banknote which shows the Malvinas on it makes clear that the Argies still aspire to reclaiming them.\nOn a more superficial level it's a great time to visit Argentina for a vacation to benefit from the highly favorable exchange rate before it hits the fan, and by doing so you will also have the feelgood factor of helping the country a little to by spending there.\nSunset on road from Santa Fe to Reconquista, Santa Fe province - is the sun about to set on Argentina as an independant nation? Robust action may be necessary to prevent it.\nEnd of article. All photos by Maund, August 2018.\nPosted at 8.45 am EDT on 31st August 18.",

        "raw_content": "More Than Just a Sport, Pickleball Impacts Lives\nPhotos by Jodi Pree | Kory Kelly recovers after chasing down a deep ball as Susan Henderson focuses on the next shot.\nNot only is pickleball is a sport that all ages can play, it doesn\u2019t require a major investment, is easy to learn, and provides a social outlet. For some, the benefits of pickleball are priceless, as it offers healing for those struggling with difficult, personal issues.\nI am one of those players who is benefiting from the healing. To be perfectly honest, as I made the commitment to compete in this year\u2019s Open, I was apprehensive, to say the least. Due to personal struggles, I have been lacking the energy, focus, and intensity required to prepare, compete, and medal. This year, however, I was determined to simply put myself out there again, hoping to recapture my love for competition; and although my joy for competition has taken a beating, my love for the players who have become part of my pickleball family has grown in abundance. Determined, I completely immersed myself with the weeklong schedule of the U.S. Open Pickleball Championships, competing in 4.0 singles, promoting pickleball as a USAPA ambassador, volunteering as a court monitor, and working as a photojournalist. Attending some days were a struggle as I had to block out the negativity from an ongoing personal issue, but the support and love from this community of players gave me the strength to show up.\nAs someone who has been passionate about pickleball for seven years, I am frequently heard saying, \u201cPickleball players are some of the nicest people you will ever meet! Would you believe that I am great friends with the players who were my opponents in the very first tournament I ever played in?\u201d Unlike some sports, pickleball is extremely social, and I often encourage my players to enter and attend tournaments simply to meet people.\nSilver 4.0, 50+ Doubles Medalists, Jeanne Stasny and Debi Cantrell\nDuring the Open, I reconnected with players and made new friends and potential doubles partners from all over the country, and I asked, \u201cWhat impact has pickleball made in your life?\u201d Some ladies shared their own stories of heartache, loss, and divorce with me. All of which are currently living happy, healthy, and positive lives. For Jeanne Stasny (an opponent from my very first tournament, former 4.5 doubles partner, and dear friend), pickleball has helped her heal from the loss of her sister, a grief which gripped her for years. The challenge of the sport, the supportive community of players, and focus on healthy diet and exercise, have improved all areas of her life. She travels and competes in tournaments all over the country spreading positivity everywhere she goes.\nAfter her husband passed away, Kathy Blandford moved to Naples from Cincinnati, Ohio to be close to her aging parents with health issues. Outside from her parents, she didn\u2019t know a soul. Immediately upon moving to Naples, and thanks to a friendly neighbor\u2019s insistence, Kathy was introduced to pickleball.\n\u201cIt saved me! I\u2019ve become close friends with 30 locals. Every morning, I look forward to playing with my friends at Fleischmann Park,\u201d remarks Kathy Blandford.\nBefore pickleball, Kory Kelly served in the Air Force and CIA and had been living with PTSD for five years. He was only able to go to work and come directly home. One and a half years ago, Kory was introduced to pickleball by his 80-year-old mother and her church ladies. He quickly became hooked on the sport, and it gave him the opportunity to face his fears in a supportive, encouraging environment.\n\u201cWhat pickleball has done for me? It brought me out of my house. The people are the treasure of this sport! The game is great, but it\u2019s the people. I now have friends all over the country. It has changed my life! It has returned me to my wife and family,\u201d expresses Kory Kelly.\nHe and his mixed doubles partner, Susan Henderson, are always seen sporting patriotic outfits during competition. For Kory, the patriotic outfits provide him with a constant reminder, a conversation starter, and an opportunity to share his story with others. Pickleball is now a major focus in his life. In fact, in November, he not only competed at Nationals in Casa Grande, Arizona, but he won gold in 4.0. In the U.S. Open, he and his partner competed at the 4.5 level. Kory and his wife, now empty nesters, are planning on relocating to Arizona or Naples, Florida. Pickleball has definitely impacted their lives and the lives of many others!\nSusan Henderson and Kory Kelly\nKathy Blandford\nKory and Lynne Kelly",

        "title": "Super Bowl Lessons for Startups \u00b7 Coding VC",
        "raw_content": "Super Bowl Lessons for Startups\nI reluctantly watched the Super Bowl last night. I'm not a football fan, but the biggest game of the year is usually entertaining, and the commercials are icing on the cake. While watching the game \u2014 nay, the event \u2014 I noticed many lessons that apply to startups as much as they apply to football and the Super Bowl.\nThe most memorable ads are the ones that tell stories and evoke emotions. Companies that do a great job of this include Google (example 1; example 2; example 3) and Apple. These commercials don't sell a list of features, they sell an experience: Easy to use. Beautiful. Something to share with your closest friends. Something that will change your life. When you're selling your product or pitching your company to investors, tell a story and make it personal.\nThe are numerous internet debates about the ROI for a $4m ad -- especially if you're doing \"brand advertising.\" Getting eyeballs for your product is nice, but you need to understand the cost of user acquisition (CUA) vs. a customer's lifetime value (LTV). Super Bowl ads have a $35 CPM. If your product has an LTV of $15 and you expect 0.2% of ad viewers to become paying customers, then you need to find a different marketing venue. Businesses should apply this kind of analysis to their marketing activities, and they should focus on measurable marketing channels when possible.\nThe more money is at stake, the more polished you have to be. When it costs $4m just to get a 30-second slot, advertisers will pay millions for high production values \u2014 that's why the ads are so good! It would be foolish to pay $4m for a time slot and then skimp on the script or the famous director. Inversely, if there's not much money at stake, you don't need as much polish. PayPal can't release a new API without exhaustive documentation and extreme load testing, but a 5-month-old payment startup can do just that. Having the freedom to release products that are not 100% polished is a huge advantage that small startups have over big companies.\nCreativity can overcome inferior resources. Two of my favorite examples from the Super Bowl were Esurance's ad, which exploded on Twitter, and DiGiorno's hilarious tweets, which didn't cost anything to produce.\nYou might watch the Super Bowl because you love football; or because your home team is playing; or because you think the commercials are great; or because you like hanging out with your friends, eating nachos, and drinking beer. Many people watch the game for all of those reasons. The Super Bowl would be a lot less significant if it only appealed to die-hard football fans. Similarly, great products make users happy in multiple ways: they improve productivity and save money and are easy to learn and are fun to use. Having one or two of those four attributes is nice, but having all four is a killer combo.\nProducts with network effects deserve a special mention here. If your product is only useful if tons of people are using it, then you're going to have a hard time with early user growth. However, if you can provide value that's independent of network effects, then people will sign up without waiting for all of their friends to sign up first. Pinterest is a great example of this: it's more fun when your friends are repinning your photos, but it's pretty useful as a personal photo curation tool even if you're the only user in the system.\nAs the adage goes, the most predictable way to make money in a gold rush is to sell shovels. Maybe advertisers got a good return on their ad investments, or maybe they didn't. Either way, the NFL and Fox made a killing. Try to be the person who's selling shovels.\nWinning is a mix of skill, hard work, and luck. This week, the Seattle Seahawks played very well and won. Several weeks ago, the San Francisco 49ers played well against the Seahawks but suffered through several significant referee calls that were questionable. They lost. Sometimes executing well isn't enough to overcome bad luck. It's unfair, but it happens. The only thing you can do is to try many times so that your luck averages out in the long run.\nIt's hard to come from behind, but not impossible. In yesterday's game, there was clearly no chance of a comeback after the first half was over. However, there have been Super Bowls in the past where teams came back from a sizable deficit. In Super Bowl XXII, the Redskins were trailing 0-10 against the Broncos, then came back to win 42-10. In the startup world, when you're starting to work on some idea, it's easy to get discouraged when you find out someone's been working on the same idea for 6 months longer than you. Six months is not an insurmountable deficit and does not justify giving up; plenty of successful companies were not the first to market.\nExecution and team quality are critical to success. Over the last few years, the \"idea vs. execution\" debate has swung solidly in favor of execution, and for good reason. To continue with the football analogies, who do you think would win: a Super Bowl quality team with a mediocre playbook or a mediocre team with a Super Bowl quality playbook? The best game plan is useless if you don't have a great team to execute it. That's true about business plans, too. The following chart offers a great summary:\nFinally, a meta-lesson: there are lessons present in every context. Of the hundreds of founders whom I've met, the most impressive ones are often the ones who are observant and analytical, and who use their thoughtfulness to come up with unexpected, non-obvious insights. Whether you're watching a football game or in an improv class or feeling frustrated by the poor menu design at your favorite restaurant, make it a habit to stop, analyze, and generalize what you observe. It'll make you a better entrepreneur.",

The subsequent closures will happen in February \u2013 April and October \u2013 November of 2020, and again in February of 2021.

        "raw_content": "Cameras Gadgets News\nby Victor P\tAugust 1, 2018\nCanon has launched the PowerShot SX740 HS \u2013 a compact travel camera with a 40x zoom. The launch comes close to the heels of the launch of the world\u2019s longest zoom camera by Nikon, which has launched a camera with 125x zoom.\nThe camera, with its compact build and a 40x optical zoom, will be available for sale in the US for $399, which converts to around Rs 27,370. The Canon PowerShot SX740 HS will soon be launched in other countries including India.\nThe PowerShot SX740 HS spans across a focal range equivalent to 24-960mm, which is in sharp contrast to the traditional 35mm lens. Its focal range is complemented with a variable aperture of f/3.3 to f/6.9. The camera features 20.3MP back-illuminated BSI-CMOS sensor. This sensor can deliver an output of 10 frames per second while capturing images as it is powered by the DIGIC 8 image processor.\nThe PowerShot SX740 HS will be able to capture a commendable 7.4fps burst shots in continuous focus. With this camera, Canon has finally graduated to 4K Ultra HD video capabilities as against offering only full HD. The features include a time-lapse mode in 4K grabbing as much as 8MP frames. The ISO sensitivity of the camera ranges from 80 to 3200, with a maximum of ISO 1600 in auto mode. Its Shutter speeds are in the range of 15 seconds and 1/3200 second.\nThe camera is equipped with a 3-inch tilting LCD display. This display can be bent and used at any angle. As it can face forward, it can be used to capture self-portraits with ease.\nCanon is offering 5-axis image stabilization that equips PowerShot users to reduce vibration when they use the 40x zoom feature. The camera also enables the user to use an 80x zoom feature. However, the 80x zoom results in a loss of image quality.\nThe Canon PowerShot SX740 HS facilitates seamless Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. It can be easily paired with any other handheld device and enables users to easily transfer images and videos. The camera packs in a few additional features such as Hybrid Auto mode, Zoom Framing Assist, a built-in flash and Smart Auto shooting mode.\nNew Power Shot Digital Camera from Canon\nCanon Launches World\u2019s first APS-C Sensor Compact Digital Zoom Camera\nBest Cameras Equipped with WIFI Connectivity\nCanon EOS\u2009M50 Mirrorless Camera Launched For Rs 61,995 In India\nLeica Launches D-Lux 7 Compact Camera With Wireless Connectivity and New Sensors\nCanon Powershot G15 \u2013 Photography Now A Lot More Exciting",

        "title": "Year in Review: Regulatory Enforcement in Europe | Compliance Week",
        "raw_content": "Year in Review: Regulatory Enforcement in Europe\nAarti Maharaj | January 5, 2016\nFor compliance officers in Europe, 2015 has been a big year. Aside from focusing on reporting wrongdoing and promoting a speak-up culture, watchdogs have been keeping compliance practitioners busy with a barrage of regulations that show no sign of easing. As compliance officers wonder to what degree the past year\u2019s enforcement actions will make their job change in 2016, here is a roundup of the top 10 major changes in 2015 that have helped set the stage for this year and beyond.\n10. Stanbic Bank Tanzania\nThe Serious Fraud Office\u2019s first-ever deferred-prosecution agreement (DPA): In November, the SFO issued its first DPA under the U.K. Bribery Act with Standard Bank (now known as ICBC Standard Bank) for the bank\u2019s conduct in failing to prevent the payment of bribes by an affiliate of the London-based institution, Stanbic Bank Tanzania. A 55-page statement of facts presented by the SFO provided an explanation of the misconduct that occurred by the London Bank and Stanbic. It also outlined where Stanbic went wrong and how Standard Bank responded to red flags picked up by the financial institution\u2019s AML program. Standard Bank scored some points in the eyes of the court after it was revealed that, \u201cThe bank fully cooperated with the SFO from the earliest possible date by, among other things, providing a summary of first accounts of interviewees, facilitating the interviews of current employees, providing timely and complete responses to requests for information and material, and providing access to its document review platform,\u201d said Lord Justice Brian Leveson in statement.\n9. European data transfers\nAs we move into the new year, the topic of European data transfers will likely keep compliance officers up at night. When the European Court of Justice ruled in October that the longstanding Safe Harbor program for international data transfers between the U.S. and EU was invalid, planning for the future became tougher for compliance officers. As Compliance Week previously reported, U.S.-based companies in Europe may now need to consider creating overseas data centers. \u201cIf you are transferring data so that you can engage in centralized accounting and financial operations, you would have to localize those operations,\u201d said Scott Vernick, a partner at law firm Fox Rothschild. \u201cYour cost of doing business just got a heck of a lot more expensive.\u201d The U.S. and EU watchdogs are negotiating an updated Safe Harbor agreement, but the timeline remains uncertain.\n8. Senior Managers Regime\nThe U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) rolled out two frameworks that will hold senior managers accountable for their actions. This move by the FCA sent ripples throughout the industry, as the new Senior Managers Regime (SMR) will require that top-level managers provide a clear distribution of their responsibilities to key decision makers, which will boost individual accountability through ongoing assessments by the firm and regulators, says the FCA. The regulator is requiring that senior managers who are \u201ccapable of causing significant harm\u201d to a financial institution and its stakeholders be annually assessed and certified according to the watchdog\u2019s guidelines. To complement the SMR, the Certification Regime will give firms full responsibility to regularly assess and certify key employees who can \u201crisk the integrity of financial markets.\u201d The new accountability rules are set to go into effect in early 2016.\n\u201cIntermediaries and agents are a classic red flag, particularly where they are purporting to offer assistance in winning business in a country other than the one in which they are based.\u201d\nAlan Milford, General Counsel, SFO\n7. Personal liability for compliance officers\nCompliance officers and personal liability: As regulatory authorities continue to expand their investigation beyond companies and whistleblowers, regulators have placed a renewed focus on compliance practitioners amid a string of oversight failures. In early 2015 the SFO brought corruption charges against Alstom\u2019s former compliance executive Jean-Daniel Lain\u00e9. Lain\u00e9 was found guilty for violating Section 1 of the prevention of Corruption Act, as well as two offenses of conspiracy to corrupt in violation of Section 1 of the Criminal Law Act. In another case, the FCA hit U.K.-based Keydata Investment Services with a record fine of \u00a375 million. The British regulator also issued a fine of \u00a3200,000 to Peter Johnson, the former compliance officer of the embattled company for his role in selling \u201cdeath bonds\u201d which cost investors millions amid the collapse of the firm. FCA said Johnson, in addition to the company\u2019s chief executive and a sales director, all \u201cfailed to act with integrity and also misled the then-Financial Services Authority (FSA) on a number of occasions in relation to the performance of the investment products.\u201d\nLANDMARK DPA\nBelow is an excerpt from the U.K. Serious Fraud Office\u2019s announcement of its first deferred-prosecution agreement under the U.K. Bribery Act.\nThe Serious Fraud Office\u2019s first application for a Deferred Prosecution Agreement was today approved by Lord Justice Leveson at Southwark Crown Court, sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice.\nThe counterparty to the DPA, Standard Bank Plc (now known as ICBC Standard Bank Plc) (\u201cStandard Bank\u201d), was the subject of an indictment alleging failure to prevent bribery contrary to section 7 of the Bribery Act 2010. This indictment, pursuant to DPA proceedings, was immediately suspended. This was also the first use of section 7 of the Bribery Act 2010 by any prosecutor.\nAs a result of the DPA, Standard Bank will pay financial orders of US$25.2 million and will be required to pay the Government of Tanzania a further US$7 million in compensation. The bank has also agreed to pay the SFO\u2019s reasonable costs of \u00a3330,000 in relation to the investigation and subsequent resolution of the DPA.\nIn addition to the financial penalty that has been imposed, Standard Bank has agreed to continue to cooperate fully with the SFO and to be subject to an independent review of its existing anti-bribery and corruption controls, policies and procedures regarding compliance with the Bribery Act 2010 and other applicable anti-corruption laws. It is required to implement recommendations of the independent reviewer (Price Waterhouse Coopers LLP).\nCommenting on the DPA, Director of the SFO David Green CB QC said:\n\u201cThis landmark DPA will serve as a template for future agreements. The judgment from Lord Justice Leveson provides very helpful guidance to those advising corporates. It also endorses the SFO\u2019s contention that the DPA in this case was in the interests of justice and its terms fair, reasonable and proportionate. I applaud Standard Bank for their frankness with the SFO and their prompt and early engagement with us.\u201d\nThe suspended charge related to a US$6 million payment by a former sister company of Standard Bank, Stanbic Bank Tanzania, in March 2013 to a local partner in Tanzania, Enterprise Growth Market Advisors (EGMA). The SFO alleges that the payment was intended to induce members of the Government of Tanzania, to show favour to Stanbic Tanzania and Standard Bank\u2019s proposal for a US$600 million private placement to be carried out on behalf of the Government of Tanzania. The placement generated transaction fees of US$8.4 million, shared by Stanbic Tanzania and Standard Bank.\nOn 18 April 2013, Standard Bank\u2019s solicitors Jones Day reported the matter to the Serious and Organised Crime Agency and on 24 April to the SFO. It also instructed Jones Day to begin an investigation and to disclose its findings to the SFO. The resulting report was sent to the SFO on 21 July 2014.\nThe SFO reviewed the material obtained and conducted its own interviews. Subsequently, the Director of the SFO considered that the public interest would likely be met by a DPA with Standard Bank and negotiations were commenced accordingly.\nThe SFO has worked with the US Department of Justice (DoJ) and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) throughout this process. A penalty of $4.2m has been agreed between Standard Bank and the SEC in respect of separate related conduct.\nWe are very grateful to the DoJ, the SEC, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the Financial Conduct Authority for their assistance in resolving this investigation and deferred prosecution.\nSource: U.K. Serious Fraud Office\n6. Broadened anti-corruption investigations\nThe fight to stamp out corruption in Europe is expected to continue. Swiss authorities unveiled a new \u201cLex-FIFA\u201d anti-corruption reform in the wake of corruption scandals that have engulfed the world\u2019s most influential sports body, FIFA. Under this law, Swiss officials will be permitted to investigate corruption in the private sector, without a tip-off from inside the company. The new changes will also treat cases of bribery as a criminal offense. Private corruption will be punishable for up to three years in prison. Moreover, officials will be permitted to launch corruption investigations against 60 international sporting organizations.\n5. Gender diversity mandates\nGender diversity in the boardroom has sparked intense debate around the world. Germany, for example made an unprecedented move this year when it passed a new law, which mandated that some of the country\u2019s largest companies allocate 30 percent of supervisory seats to women by early 2016. Across Europe, Norway was the first country to make legislative moves for gender balance in the boardroom. Next, Spain, France, and Iceland followed suit and pushed for a 40 percent requirement at European companies; Italy moved forward by setting a quota of one-third. Britain has seen an increase in the representation of women without any specific regulatory requirement, as several companies have made this a voluntary effort.\n4. Cyber-security concerns\nCyber-breaches continue to skyrocket. Numerous reports of poorly handled cyber-security breaches have left many European companies vulnerable to theft and fraud. In March, the European Commission (EC) released a cyber-security survey, which revealed that roughly 85 percent of participants fear that their personal information can be easily compromised and believe that the risk of cyber-crimes are increasing across the European Union. Sixty-three percent of respondents claimed that online banking fraud remains a top concern. Britain, however, lagged behind in cyber-security risk management and was ranked as one of the worst European countries for dealing with identity theft and cyber-fraud.\n3. Slow whistleblowing implementation\nEU agencies slow to implement whistleblowing policies. Hopefully this may change in 2016 as new regulations go into effect. Currently, only two of nine institutions in the European Union adopted whistleblower rules more than a year after a mandate to do so, said a report released by EU Ombudsman Emily O\u2019Reilly back in March. O\u2019Reilly conducted a review of the institutions, which revealed that only the European Commission and the Court of Auditors have adopted internal whistleblowing policies.\n2. Robust rules of engagement\nThe European Union\u2019s top regulator called for the European Central Bank (ECB) to strengthen its rules of engagement by putting a stop to banker meetings prior to rolling out new policies. The transparency debate at the ECB was triggered when an ECB official revealed market-sensitive information during a private dinner earlier this year. \u201cIt has already been established by the ECB, in its speaking engagement guidelines, that it should not give a prestige advantage to certain groups over others when a board member meets them,\u201d O\u2019Reilly told Reuters.\n1. A view from the U.K. SFO\nAt the 2015 Compliance Week Europe event, Alan Milford, general counsel at the U.K. SFO, provided compliance officers and audit executives with some interesting views from the SFO. Milford urged compliance officers to pay close attention to the actions of their vendors and agents, as they will always be an area of interest to the SFO. \u201cIntermediaries and agents are a classic red flag, particularly where they are purporting to offer assistance in winning business in a country other than the one in which they are based.\u201d\nCW Europe: A View From the U.K. Serious Fraud Office\nSFO Brings Corruption Charges Against Former Alstom Compliance Executive\nAlstom Sentenced to Pay $772 Million FCPA Fine\nSFO: Alstom to Face More Criminal Charges\nWith Safe Harbor Squashed, What's Next for European Data Transfers?\nData Security Impasse Overturns Safe Harbor Program\nCompliance Officers Brace for U.K. Senior Managers Regime\nU.K. Government Curbs Senior Managers Regime\nU.K. FCA: Senior Managers To Be \u2018Whistleblower Champions\u2019\nU.K. Watchdog to Hold Senior Managers Accountable\nSFO Agrees First U.K. DPA With Standard Bank\nU.K. Bribery Act\nCourt of Justice Declares Commission\u2019s U.S. Safe Harbour Decision Is Invalid\nFCA Senior Managers Regime & Certification Regime\nSFO: Former Alstom Director Faces U.K. Corruption Charges\nEuropean Commission Cyber-Security Survey",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb blog post \u00bb Social contexts of youth bullying\nSocial contexts of youth bullying\nBy Warren J. Blumenfeld:\nWhile studying a number of bullying prevention programs, I find that, while providing good overall theoretical and conceptual foundations and strategies for prevention and reduction of incidents, some crucial components are still missing. We must also discuss and examine the social and cultural contexts wherein bullying attitudes and behaviors often stem. We must find ways not only to understand and to actually engage in correcting these larger social and cultural contexts.\nI contend that we must not view bullying and harassment as simply youth problems and behaviors, but rather, investigate the contexts in which bullying \u201ctrickles down\u201d from the larger society and is reproduced within the schools. Young people, through the process of social learning, often acquire bullying and harassing attitudes and behaviors, and they also often learn the socially sanctioned targets for their aggressive behaviors.\nThe developmental and educational psychologist, Albert Bandura, proposed that young people learn primarily through observation, and that one\u2019s culture transmits social mores and what Bandura called \u201ccomplex competencies\u201d through social modeling. As he noted, the root meaning of the word \u201cteach\u201d is \u201cto show.\u201d\nSociety presents many role models, from very positive and affirming to very negative, biased, aggressive, and destructive. Modeling, he asserted, is composed of more than concrete actions, which he referred to as \u201cresponse mimicry,\u201d but also involves abstract concepts, \u201cabstract modeling,\u201d such as following rules, taking on values and beliefs, making moral and ethical judgments.\nAs young people observe negative role modeling in the society, at home, in the media, at school, and other social sites, this can result in them taking on prejudicial judgments and aggressive or violent behaviors. Youth can learn behaviors, like verbal and physical aggression, by observing and imitating others even in the absence of behavioral reinforcements. Bandura found that young people can be highly influenced by observing adult behavior, and perceive that such behavior is acceptable, while freeing their own aggressive inhibitions. They are then more likely to behave aggressively in future situations.\nThose who bully, therefore, often fulfill the social \u201cfunction\u201d of establishing and reinforcing the norms stemming from their environment. They often justify their behaviors by blaming the targets of their attacks, and emphasizing that they somehow deserve the aggression because they in some ways deviate from established societal standards.\nA 2014 National Civility Survey by Weber Shandwick and Powell Tate, with KRC Research, found that about 66% of U.S. citizens believe that we have \u201ca major civility problem,\u201d and 70% believe that \u201ccivility has eroded over the past few years.\u201d\nSo, what messages (or double messages) are we modeling for youth that seep into the schools, messages they assimilate and manifest as bullying and harassing behaviors? In answering this question, I could provide an inexhaustible list, but I would like, instead, to discuss just a few in two primary realms \u2014 the electoral-political and corporate business, that might tend to go unnoticed because they have become so thoroughly incorporated into the social and cultural fabric and, thereby, tend to avoid scrutiny while seeming rather \u201cnormal,\u201d or at least neutral.\nWhat kinds of messages are we sending young people as we as a society promote and validate restaurant chains like Hooters and Twin Peaks (as well as Girlie Pancake House whose motto is \u201cThey\u2019re Better Stacked\u201d) where potential servers whose bodies fall outside the proverbial hour-glass shape with manifestly large breasts need not apply, and TV commercials that codify rigid socially-constructed gender roles where girls and women clean and cook and boys and men engage in dangerous activities, work outside the home, and \u201cprotect\u201d the womenfolk? And what are the messages as state after state and politician after politician attempt to pass legislation restricting women\u2019s rights to control their bodies, including needless and invasive inter-uterine ultrasound procedures, while also attempting to defund family planning and medical clinics like Planned Parenthood, which serve the health needs of women from all walks of life?\nWhat kinds of messages are we sending young people when states and politicians attempt to pass or have actually passed Constitutional amendments limiting marriage to a union between one man and one woman, which has been codified in the GOP 2012 Presidential Platform stating in part: \u201c\u2026we believe that marriage, the union of one man and one woman must be upheld as the national standard,\u201d and where for many years the so-called \u201cDon\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell, Don\u2019t Pursue\u201d military policy forced lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans* potential recruits and active personnel to lie about who they love and how they express their gender, and where some politicians are advocating going back to those oppressive days (official policy still restricts trans* people from joining the military); and where many school boards remain intransigent by refusing to enumerate \u201csexual identity\u201d and \u201cgender identity and expression\u201d among protected categories in bullying prevention legislation; and where the Boy Scouts of America not too long ago forbad membership to gay, bisexual, and trans* scouts and still forbids gay, bisexual, and trans* scout leaders?\nWhat kinds of messages are we sending young people as politicians represent our President as \u201cillegitimate\u201d for allegedly not having been born in the United States, by characterizing the Affordable Health Care Act (which they refer to \u201cObamacare\u201d) as left-wing European-style socialism that will result in government dependency, and where political posters depict Mr. Obama as a stereotypical African medicine man wearing virtually only a loin cloth and bones and feathers on his head, all serving as coded racist language and visuals to call into question the patriotism and \u201cAmericanism\u201d of our biracial leader?\nWhat kinds of messages are we sending young people as states and politicians forward and pass so-called \u201cAnti-Sharia\u201d laws to restrict Islamic law from supposedly taking hold over the United States, and our leaders protest the establishment of Islamic centers in places like New York City and Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and politicians attempt to equate President Obama with extremists who want nothing more than to wipe out the United States as we know it? And what about people like Baptist minister Robert Jeffress and others who define Mormonism as \u201ca cult,\u201d and conservative commentator Ann Coulter on the CNBC show \u201cThe Big Idea,\u201d forthrightly asserting that everyone on earth should be Christian and that Jews need to be \u201cperfected\u2026.It is better if we were all Christians,\u201d and the current governor of Alabama, Robert Bentley, in January 2011 announcing during his inauguration that \u201cSo anybody here today who has not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior, I\u2019m telling you, you\u2019re not my brother and you\u2019re not my sister, and I want to be your brother\u201d? In the final analysis, all of this promotes ignorance and fear against anyone who follows the tenets of Islam, Mormonism, and Judaism, while opposing Atheists and Agnostics, or for that matter, anyone who does not adhere to traditional forms of Christianity.\nAnd what kinds of messages are we sending young people regarding how to handle conflict when the National Rifle Association (one of whose mottos is \u201cGuns Save Lives\u201d) owns our politicians who allow automatic and semi-automatic gun ownership to remain virtually unrestricted, where the camping and outdoors superstore, Cabela\u2019s, handed out envelopes to the first 800 people over the age of 18 who lined up in front of its stores for a chance to win a Browning A-Bolt Medallion .300 WSM rifle with a Cabela\u2019s 50th anniversary gun case worth $875, where Nations Truck Sales in Sanford, Florida offered each customer a brand spanking new assault rifle with the purchase of a truck. And the company, Holy Smoke Bullet Urns of Stockton, Alabama provides the \u201cservice\u201d to your loved ones the ability to help you kill long after you have died. For the measly sum of only $1250, they can have you cremated with a pound of your ashes stuffed inside genuine bullets, resurrecting you as live ammunition. And what about the rising tide of gun clubs that offer its members the option of posing for holiday cards where youth and parents choose between grenade launchers, assault rifles, and AK-47s for display while sitting upon Santa\u2019s lap?\nAnd what kinds of messages are we sending young people as state after state and politician after politician attempt to pass punitive, dehumanizing, and, yes, racist anti-immigration measures, and where some states as well as national legislators endeavor to and actually pass, as in Iowa, laws mandating English as the \u201cofficial\u201d language, which has the effect of demonizing and marginalizing non-native born and non-English speakers?\nAnd what kinds of messages are we sending young people with the ever-increasing incidents of police officers arresting and killing unarmed black and brown boys and men throughout our country?\nSo I ask again, what kinds of messages are we really sending our youth, and do we truly understand our own complicity in the bullying we see in our schools? Unless and until we grapple with the ways in which our society promotes and gives justification to such bullying, we will never truly solve the problems.\nFor as Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein reminded us in one of the songs in their 1949 Broadway musical, \u201cSouth Pacific\u201d: \u201cYou\u2019ve got to be taught/To hate and fear/You\u2019ve got to be taught/From year to year/It\u2019s got to be drummed/In your dear little ear/You\u2019ve got to be carefully taught\u2026.\u201d\nWarren J.

The EFTA spells out the rules governing debit card and other electronic transactions and what a consumer's rights are if there are billing errors or other issues.\nFor consumers, the EFTA is substantially weaker than the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA), which governs credit card transactions. For example, while the FCBA limits your liability for unauthorized transactions on a credit card to $50, the EFTA limits your liability to $50 only if you notify the bank or credit union within two business days of your debit card being lost or stolen. If you don\u2019t notify the financial institution within two days, but you do notify them within 60 days, you could lose up to $500. And if you don\u2019t provide notification within 60 days of receiving a statement showing the unauthorized transaction(s), you could be liable for all unauthorized activity. For this and other reasons (the right to dispute undelivered purchases, for example), consumers who shop online should use a credit card.\ndebit cards, prepaid cards, billing errors, billing statements, liability, billing disputes, regulation e",

        "raw_content": "14 Facts About Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's New Fianc\u00e9e\nHave you heard the one about Deal or No Deal?\nMillions of hearts are on the mend thanks to the announcement that Prince Harry is officially off the market. On Nov. 27, Harry's father Prince Charles announced via Clarence House that his son is engaged to girlfriend Meghan Markle and that the wedding will take place in Spring 2018.\nHere\\'s Your First Look at Meghan Markle\\'s Ring\nFollowing the announcement, the couple made their appearance as an engaged couple for the first time at Kensington Palace Gardens, where Harry told reporters that the proposal was romantic (\"Of course it was\") and that he knew Meghan was \"the one\" the moment they met. Is your heart bursting? Are you emotional from watching their gorgeous walk at the garden?\nPrince Harry & Meghan Markle arrive for a photocall at Kensington Palace Gardens on the day their engagement is announced. pic.twitter.com/YkcEvosY9L\nBelow, a list of things you need to know about Harry's future bride. See you at the wedding/royal wedding viewing party!\n1. Meghan ran a lifestyle website called The Tig. It covered all the necessary topics like food, travel, fashion, and beauty. She also had an \"Influencers\" category, which most recently featured Priyanka Chopra, 16-year-old Black-ish star Yara Shahidi, and Serena Williams. In April 2017, Meghan announced the end of The Tig after nearly three years: \"What began as a passion project (my little engine that could) evolved into an amazing community of inspiration, support, fun and frivolity. You've made my days brighter and filled this experience with so much joy. Keep finding those Tig moments of discovery, keep laughing and taking risks, and keep being 'the change you wish to see in the world,'\" she wrote.\n2. She loves animals and is an advocate of adopting. Here are her two \"loves\" Bogart and Guy.\n3. Meghan's been playing Rachel Zane on Suits since 2011. In November 2017, Deadline reported that both Meghan and co-star Patrick J. Adams have been \"eyeing\" an exit, as contracts for all original cast members expire after season seven. (The season seven finale aired on USA Network in September 2017.)\n4. One of her first TV roles was on General Hospital. Meghan played someone named Jill for one episode in 2002.\n5. From there, she moved to reality TV. She appeared in more than 30 episodes of Deal or No Deal as \"Briefcase Model #24\" from 2006 to 2007.\n6. She's appeared in a movie opposite Robert Pattinson.Remember Remember Me, one of the first non-Twilight films RPattz made during the Twilight phase? Meghan played someone named Megan.\n7. Meghan's a huge foodie. Meghan's love for food is so important that her Suits character, Rachel Zane, is also a huge foodie. In 2012, she offered some healthy food ideas to Today. My favorite: \"a beautiful glass of wine\" because it requires \"no recipe or hippie dippie ingredients.\"\n8. She's really good at calligraphy. As Meghan revealed in a Good Housekeeping interview in 2016, \"I used to be a calligrapher for weddings and events \u2014 that was my side job while I was auditioning.\" Here she is doing some calligraphy during an interview with Larry King.\n9. She interned at the U.S. Embassy in Buenos Aires in her senior year of college. Meghan, who double-majored in theater and international relations at Northwestern, became the first in her family to graduate from college. Of her time in Argentina, Meghan told Marie Claire in 2013 that she was \"in a motorcade, doing that whole thing\u2026 I thought for sure I would still have a career in politics.\"\n10. Like Harry, Meghan has done a lot of humanitarian work. In 2016, she became the Global Ambassador for World Vision Canada and traveled to Rwanda for the Clean Water Campaign. She's also appeared at the UN Headquarters for the HeForShe campaign and traveled to Afghanistan on a USO tour. She recently blogged about her humanitarian work on The Tig, writing, \"I've never wanted to be a lady who lunches \u2014 I've always wanted to be a woman who works. And this type of work is what feeds my soul, and fuels my purpose.\"\n11. Meghan comes from a showbiz family. Her father, a TV lighting director, worked on shows like Married\u2026 With Children. \"And there I was, behind the scenes of a glossy soap opera and a TV sitcom, surrounded by famous actors and their glam teams, multi-million dollar budgets, and crew lunches that always included filet mignon and enough sweets to make you think you were at Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory,\" she wrote in a recent blog post.\n12. Her nickname is \"Flower.\" Her mother Doria Ragland has called Meghan \"Flower\" since childhood, as revealed in her Vanity Fair cover story.\n13. She's been married once. Meghan and film producer Trevor Engelson tied the knot in September 2011. They divorced in 2013.\n14. Meghan's official royal title following her wedding to Harry will likely be the Duchess of Sussex (to match Harry's Duke of Sussex). As The Telegraph reports, while Meghan will informally be called Princess Meghan (just like Princess Kate), Royal protocol will forbid any official recognition of the princess title.\nMeghan and Harry's Vacation Home Is Stunning\nFYI, Here's What's In Harry and Meghan's Fridge\nPrince Harry and Meghan Markle's Proposal Story",

        "raw_content": "Moffat County divided over secession issue\nCraig \u2014 County secession is not a new concept for rural Colorado. The idea has been floated for decades in living rooms and over beers. But recently, some counties \u2014 including Moffat \u2014 have been taking serious efforts toward withdrawing from the state.\nMoffat County commissioners will vote Tuesday about whether they want to ask voters about seceding from Colorado.\nGov. John Hickenlooper said in a statement to the Craig Daily Press that this undermines the value of Colorado's diverse political culture.\n\"There may be a political agenda behind secession I don\u2019t get because when I think of Colorado, it means all of our diverse communities and people,\" he said.\nJohn Kinkaid brought up the 51st State Initiative's motto \u2014 to unite dissatisfied Colorado counties to secede and form a 51st state \u2014 at this week's Moffat County Commission meeting. After that discussion, he decided he would write ballot language before the Sept. 6 deadline for Moffat County's election to give voters the option to secede.\n\"The discussion kind of took a life of its own,\" Kinkaid said. \"I thought that letting people vote on it, and the discussion that would take place from now and then, would work. It looks like we've hit a nerve.\"\nOne of those nerves might belong to Moffat County Commissioner Chuck Grobe, who said he didn't think Kinkaid was following due process with this proposal.\n\"I'm not necessarily opposed to the proposal. What I'm opposed to is it being done behind closed doors without open discussion,\" Grobe said. \"I am against it because of the way it was done. That's how I always governed. Talk to everybody.\"\nKinkaid said that he had not made plans to put this on the ballot beforehand but that the quickly coming ballot deadline drove the inertia of the discussion.\n\"People shouldn't feel like I'm trying to ramrod this through. Not at all,\" he said. \"I just want people to have a voice.\"\nBut Grobe still thinks the commission and the community are out of the loop. Kinkaid dropped off the draft for the ballot language to the Craig Daily Press on Wednesday, and Grobe said he didn't see it until Thursday.\n\"See, that's what irritates me \u2014 just that this comes out before the commissioners even see it \u2014 because he's speaking for the board of Moffat County commissioners,\" Grobe said. \"I just will have my say Tuesday morning, and how it votes out is all I can do.\"\nGrobe said he was concerned this being on the ballot could jeopardize efforts to get DOLA grants, which is state money.\n\"We have a big $6 million project going forward: Shadow Mountain. If we don't get a DOLA grant for that, it's dead in the water,\" he said.\nMayor Terry Carwile also spoke against the proposal.\n\"I've been a resident of the great state of Colorado for over 50 years, and I'm proud to say that,\" he said, adding that the proper approach is to \"foster productive relationships with colleagues at the state level.\"\nThe likelihood that the secession would happen is near impossible, Carwile said.\n\"The prospect of that happening would be nil. I wonder if any thought had been given to it and the mechanics of it,\" he said.\nSince the announcement, Kinkaid has spoken about secession on the \u201cAmy Oliver Show,\u201d a local radio program, and it has been distributed widely in publications throughout Wyoming and Colorado.\nHe has been getting praise for his actions. While Moffat County Commissioner Tom Mathers said voting on secession would function more as a statement, he still thinks it's a good idea.\n\"It could equalize the discussion,\" Mathers said. \"Maybe this will open some doors.\"\nRick Barnes, of the Bears Ears Tea Party Patriots, said that it was prime time to take this sort of action and that he hoped secession could become a reality.\n\"I'm all for it. We got to get Denver to wake up if that's what it takes,\" he said. \"We can get the process started and let them know that we're through being messed with. We're part of the state, too. Hopefully, the statement will be enough.\"\nOther community members are concerned about how this will make the county look to the rest of Colorado.\n\"It's not the positive attention I think Moffat County deserves,\" said Jo Ann Baxter, chairperson of the Moffat County Democrats. \"If it does pass, then they made a commitment to spend money on something that is impractical and improbable.\"\nHickenlooper said he was open to talk about rural Coloradans' concerns.\n\"If this talk of a 51st state is about politics designed to divide us, it is destructive. But if it is about sending a message, then I see our responsibility to lean in and do a better job of listening,\" he said.\nKinkaid said he wants to use this as a bargaining chip.\n\"I would be OK with a compromised solution. In a negotiation, you start with a strong position,\" he said. \"You don't start with the least you'll expect.\"\nCarwile said there were better ways to start a dialogue.\n\"You can still have a good discussion even if you don't agree,\" Carwile said. \"You have to go and perform good service. You have to be a good ambassador to our community.\"",

        "raw_content": "LendingClub vs. Prosper: Which Lender is Better?\nProsper and LendingClub can help you get the funds you need, but which P2P lender is right for you? Read on to discover the strengths and weaknesses of each.\nQuick: when is the last time you needed money beyond what a paycheck provided?\nLife happens, and sometimes it can be difficult to afford.\nWhile almost everyone has been in that situation, not everyone handles it the same way.\nSome people seek out quick-cash options like payday loans, but these have high interest rates and can actually make your financial situation worse.\nSome go to banks, but that takes a lot of time\u2014time you may not have to waste.\nA good alternative to either of these is peer-to-peer lending.\nQualifying for a Loan from Prosper\nQualifying for a Loan from LendingClub\nCredit Score and Its Role\nPros and Cons of Both Companies\nLoan Amount Limits\nPeer-to-Peer Lending \u2014 Worthwhile?\nIf you need to borrow money, whether for an unexpected emergency or to get your business off the ground, you'll need to seek out a loan.\nTraditionally you may go to your bank, but that can be a time-consuming process\u2026and often pointless.\nBanks aren't known for lending money for just any reason.\nSo what's a safe, reliable alternative?\nWe've listed our picks for the 8 best places to get a personal loan before, but it's also worth looking into peer to peer lending.\nPeer to peer, or P2P lending is backed by everyday investors instead of major financial institutions.\nSo what about security?\nAlthough peer-to-peer lenders were not federally regulated when they first appeared on scene, they are now required to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nThis provides a level of security and peace of mind that borrowers did not have before.\nHowever, despite this regulation, not every state allows peer-to-peer lending.\nYou'll need to check with each peer-to-peer lender to find out whether your state allows them to operate.\nBefore you decide to use peer to peer lending, you should understand the pros and cons of the service.\nPeer to peer loans usually have a lower, fixed APR than traditional loans like mortgages or credit cards.\nPeer to peer loans can be in your account in as little as one business day after approval, compared to weeks for traditional loans.\nMost peer-to-peer loans are easier to apply for, with short online forms rather than requiring a visit to the bank and a long interview.\nPeer to peer loans range from as little as $1,000 to as much as $35,000.\nThe loans can have higher than normal interest rates if you have bad credit.\nIf your credit score isn't high enough, you may not qualify for a peer-to-peer loan.\nMissing a payment can affect your ability to receive future loans, and lenders make individual decisions on whom to invest with.\nBecause the FDIC doesn't support peer-to-peer loans, any losses you receive cannot be recovered\u2014although they can be filed on your taxes.\nPeer to peer lending can be tremendously useful, provided you use it correctly.\nAccording to a 2014 Federal Reserve report, peer-to-peer loans were most commonly used to consolidate debt and lower interest payments.\nCredit card payoffs and home improvement expenses were the next two largest uses.\nThat said, \"buying your way out of debt\" could be risky.\nWhile consolidating your debt into a single payment can help reduce interest payments and have significant short- and long-term effects on your credit score, if you don't fix the behaviours that put you into debt in the first place, you'll end up in the same situation.\nOther risks involve the same threats that come with any loan.\nIf you borrow more than you can reasonably afford to pay back, you may find yourself trapped in an endless cycle of minimum payments and high interest rates.\nYou should also keep an eye out for hidden fees that may cost you more than you had planned to pay, as well as illegitimate offers meant to steal your identity.\nHowever, Prosper and Lending Club, the two companies we're reviewing in this article, are both trustworthy sites.\nGetting a loan from Prosper or LendingClub begins in much the same way as traditional lending.\nOnline, you\u2019ll fill out a form with your information, how much you want to borrow, the purpose of the loan, etc.\nAfter this, you're assigned a \"risk grade\" that is based on your credit score.\nThis helps investors determine how much funding they wish to provide you.\nThose with higher credit scores are more likely to receive funding than those with lower credit scores.\nYour application on a lending site won't affect your credit score.\nHowever, the traditional factors still apply: your credit usage history, income, repayment period, and other elements will determine how likely you are to be approved.\nYou'll be able to check the rates you're eligible for before continuing with the process.\nChecking your rates does not affect your score, and viewing your offers will give you enough information to decide whether you want to proceed with the loan or not.\nYou might not qualify for a peer-to-peer loan if you don't meet certain criteria.\nFirst, you need to have a decent credit score.\nThe minimum score is 640, although most users have a score at least 60 points higher.\nWhile there is no minimum gross income requirement, the majority of Prosper borrowers generally have a higher than average income and use Prosper for business loans.\nLikewise, there is no minimum credit history, but most borrowers have several years of credit history to refer back to.\nOne point of contention for those struggling to pay off credit cards is the debt-to-income ratio requirement; you can only have a 50% ratio, excluding your mortgage, in order to qualify.\nIf you're using more than half your available credit, you won't be able to borrow from Prosper.\nTrying to improve your credit score is a smart move, whether you're looking for a loan or not.\nWhile Prosper is aimed at those with higher incomes, LendingClub is available to people who might not make quite as much and have lower credit scores.\nLendingClub will lend to people with credit scores as low as 600.\nHowever, your interest rates will likely be higher with a score this low.\nYou should also be wary of too many recent hard credit inquiries, as these could affect your score and send it plummeting farther.\nAnother requirement is that you have a debt-to-income ratio that is a maximum of 50%.\nThat means if you have $1,000 in available credit, you should not be using more than $500 of it.\nAnother requirement is that you must be employed and able to demonstrate, if not necessarily prove, your income.\nWhile it isn't necessarily a requirement, missed payments on your credit report can severely hurt your chances of being approved.\nWhile peer to peer lending operates with different rules than traditional lending, that doesn't mean credit score isn't still an important factor.\nOne of the main requirements for both LendingClub and Prosper is a certain credit score: 640 and 600, respectively.\nThat said, your credit score won't be affected by viewing the potential loans available to you.\nSoft inquiries leave no record on your credit report, although if you decide to go through with the loan, it will make a hard inquiry on your report.\nHowever, it can sometimes be worth it. If you have a high usage ratio, your credit score might be hurt more than an inquiry would affect it.\nMany peer-to-peer lending sites have tools that help you evaluate the impact paying off a certain amount of debt would have.\nUse these tools to determine if borrowing enough to consolidate your credit card payments into a single payment would improve your score enough to make the potential loss of a few points due to an inquiry worth it.\nIt's also a good idea to consolidate if you're struggling to make payments on time, as a missed payment can have longer lasting effects than an inquiry.\nHowever, credit score does not play as large a role as it does in traditional loans.\nBecause peer-to-peer lending is decided on an individual basis by the investor, they may decide to overlook a poor credit score and take the risk of investing anyway.\nOne of the most important things to consider when taking a loan is the interest rate.\nIf you're unable to pay on time, the interest rate will be applied to your overall balance and can result in significant penalties and additional payments.\nLendingClub's rates are based on a \"loan grade\" you're assigned when you sign up.\nThe loan grade is from A to G, and the better the grade, the lower your rates. Here's what it comes out to.\nThe length of the loan will also affect the rates, and different loan grades carry different origination fees.\nThere are a few other fees associated with LendingClub you should be aware of, including Unsuccessful Payment Fees, Late Payment Fees, and Check Processing Fees.\nProsper uses a similar loan grade system as LendingClub, with the following interest rates.\nThe average interest rate of a traditional loan, at the average US credit score of 699, is 13.5% to 17.5%.\nWhile higher credit scores will mean lower interest rates, the rates are lower on average.\nHigh-risk borrowers from peer to peer lenders face drastically higher rates.\nFor example, the \"HR\" grade from Prosper carries an interest rate of 31%.\nOn the opposite end of the spectrum, borrowers with excellent credit scores have extremely low rates\u2014as low as 6% in some cases.\nLendingClub and Prosper are two of the highest rated peer-to-peer lending networks out there.\nWhile they come highly recommended, it's important that you understand the upsides and downsides to investing with them.\nLendingClub Pros\nSolid history of delivering on their promises.\nWell-known for its customer service.\nProvides larger loans than many other P2P lenders.\nMultiple investment accounts to choose from, including individual, joint, trustee, corporate, custodial/minor, and IRA.\nInvestors have seen 99.9% positive returns.\nLendingClub Cons\nMinimum credit rating is 660, which is higher than many other peer-to-peer networks.\nAPR isn't always the best available rate.\nOnly serves 33 states.\nFewer personal loan types to choose from than competitors offer.\nInvestor fees charged to any investors in the company.\nProsper Pros\nOne of the lowest starting APR rates.\nOAt least 92% of its employees have invested into the company.\nLegal documentation and SEC paperwork is available on the website.\nProsper Cons\nLoans are only available in 36-month or 60-month terms.\nDoesn't have the best track record for customer service.\nWebsite can be difficult to use.\nOne important thing to understand about these two companies is the limits on their loans.\nProsper loans range from $2,000 to $35,000.\nWhile this is more than enough for someone taking out a personal loan for smaller expenses, it isn't quite enough to springboard certain businesses off the ground.\nThis would require seeking multiple loans from multiple lenders, or taking out a traditional business loan.\nLendingClub is better suited to personal loans, as well.\nThe lower limit for a loan from LendingClub starts at $1,000, while the upper limit is $40,000.\nTaking a loan of any sort, especially if you're already in debt, can be a scary prospect.\nHowever, peer to peer lending can actually be a useful tool to get out of debt if you use it correctly.\nImagine this scenario: you have $4,000 in debt on one credit card, then $2,000 on another and $500 on a third.\nThe interest rates are killing you, and the monthly payments barely touch the principal.\nA personal loan from a peer to peer website could completely free you of those payments and consolidate them into a single amount.\nOn the other hand, you would need to stay on top of your payments to the peer-to-peer lender lest you fall into the same trap all over again.\nThink about the reasons you might have for taking out a loan:\nDo you need to consolidate debt?\nMaybe even purchase an engagement ring?\nWhatever your reason, evaluate the two lenders we've listed here and look at their strengths, weaknesses, and pros and cons before you make a decision.\nSmart financial choices can secure your future.",

We affirm the 5 Solas of the Reformation in our preaching and teaching.\nScripture Alone \u2013 We confess the Scriptures to be completely infallible and inerrant in the original autographs, and to be the only source of written divine revelation. To this we submit and bind our consciences. All that is necessary for salvation is to be found in this sufficient divine revelation. We endeavor by God\u2019s grace to conform our lives to the authority and teaching of the Bible.\nChrist Alone \u2013 We acknowledge that without the righteousness of Christ imputed to us in justification we must be lost and perish in our sins. This makes Christ and his sacrificial death fundamental and vital to our salvation. We confess that Jesus died for his people. He is their mediator which function he demonstrates in the offices of Prophet, Priest and King.\nGrace Alone \u2013 We confess that salvation is by grace alone through faith. We confess the irresistible drawing power of the Holy Spirit in effectual calling bringing us to Christ resulting in regeneration. We deny any part of so-called free will as having a part in our salvation. We are sustained always by God\u2019s free grace.\nFaith Alone \u2013 We confess that faith is a gift of God and not from us. The result of faith is that we are justified before God and by God alone. The righteousness of Jesus alone satisfies divine justice for us.\nTo God Alone be the Glory \u2013 All that God does and has done is for his Glory. He alone is sovereign. Our redemption is accomplished and applied to us solely by the power of God. As sinners saved by grace, it is our duty and delight to submit to this God, and to praise him for all that he is and has done.\nAs a member of the Evangelical Free Church of American, CrossView Church subscribes to the EFCA Statement of Faith, which was adopted in 2008.",

Although a set of histone methyltransferases have been identified and biochemically characterized, the pathological roles of their dysfunction in human cancers are still not well understood. In this study, we demonstrate important roles of WHSC1L1 in human carcinogenesis. Expression levels of WHSC1L1 transcript were significantly elevated in various human cancers including bladder carcinoma. Immunohistochemical analysis of bladder, lung, and liver cancers confirmed overexpression of WHSC1L1. WHSC1L1-specific small interfering RNAs significantly knocked down its expression and resulted in suppression of proliferation of bladder and lung cancer cell lines. WHSC1L1 knockdown induced cell cycle arrest at the G(2)/M phase followed by multinucleation of cancer cells. Expression profile analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip(\u00ae) showed that WHSC1L1 affected the expression of a number of genes including CCNG1 and NEK7, which are known to play crucial roles in the cell cycle progression at mitosis. As WHSC1L1 expression is significantly low in various normal tissues including vital organs, WHSC1L1 could be a good candidate molecule for development of novel treatment for various types of cancer.\nhttp://doi.org/10.1002/gcc.22012",

        "raw_content": "Burmese python trap: Will it work?\nFederal wildlife officials will test a new trap designed to capture Burmese pythons. The Burmese pythons have overrun the Florida Everglades because they have no natural predators.\n(AP Photo/USDA Wildlife Services, HO)\nA python curled up in a test trap at the USDA research facility in Gainesville, Fla. The trap will test if pythons can be lured into traps.\nFederal wildlife officials alarmed by an infestation of Burmese pythons in the Florida Everglades have tried radio tracking collars, a massive public hunt and even snake-sniffing dogs to control the invasive species. Now there's talk of snaring the elusive pythons in specially designed traps.\nThe U.S. Department of Agriculture received a patent in August for a trap that resembles a long, thin cage with a net at one end for the live capture of large, heavy snakes.\nResearchers say Burmese pythons regard the Everglades as an all-you-can-eat buffet, where native mammals are easy prey and the snakes have no natural predators. The population of Burmese pythons, which are native to India and other parts of Asia, likely developed from pets released into the wild, either intentionally or in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew in 1992.\nWildlife officials are racing to control the python population before it undermines ongoing efforts to restore natural water flow through the Everglades. According to a study released last year, mammal sightings in the Everglades are down sharply in areas where pythons are known to live.\nThe Gainesville field station for the National Wildlife Research Center, which falls under the USDA, is preparing to test the trap in a natural enclosure that contains five pythons.\nOver the coming months, the researchers will try baiting the traps with the scent of small mammals such as rats, and they will try camouflaging them as pipes or other small, covered spaces where pythons like to hide, said John Humphrey, a biologist at the research center. Future tests may use python pheromones as bait.\n\"There's still more to be learned, there's still more to be tested,\" Humphrey said. \"This is just one of your tools that you have to put together with other things to get the problem solved.\"\nThe trap was developed to catch exotic snakes without ensnaring smaller, lighter native species, Humphrey said.\nThe 5-foot-long trap is made from galvanized steel wire with a tightly woven net secured to one end. Two separate triggers need to be tripped simultaneously for it to close, which should keep it from snapping shut on such native snakes as the eastern diamondback rattlesnake or the water moccasin.\n\"The largest native snakes are generally somewhat smaller than the youngest of the pythons,\" Humphrey said. \"That was the impetus of the design.\"\nThe longest python ever caught in Florida was an 18-foot-8-inch specimen found in May beside a rural Miami-Dade County road.\nHumphrey developed the trap in collaboration with Wisconsin-based Tomahawk Live Trap, which is working on a licensing agreement to sell the traps along with other snake-handling equipment such as tongs, hooks and secure bags.\n\"We don't expect to sell a lot of them; it's not an everybody thing, not like a chipmunk or a squirrel trap,\" said co-owner Jenny Smith. But she said it has potential for wildlife removal companies when they get calls about \"a big snake.\"\nIt's not clear where exactly the traps would be deployed, or whether they would be effective in an area as vast as Florida's Everglades.\nEverglades National Park alone encompasses 1.5 million acres, and all but roughly a hundred thousand acres of that is largely inaccessible swampland and sawgrass, vital breeding grounds for a variety of protected species.\nIt might not make sense, or even be possible, to place and monitor traps in hard-to-reach swamplands, said park spokeswoman Linda Friar.\nTraps have been used in the park to collect pythons for research but not for population control, Friar said.\nMost of the state and federal efforts aimed at pythons have focused on learning how the elusive snakes have adapted so well in the wild, and that learning process continues, she said.\n\"They're so difficult to track and find,\" Friar said. \"What we do know is they've adapted. We don't know how many there are.\"\nOne of the challenges facing wildlife officials is that the tan, splotchy snakes are incredibly difficult to spot in the wild, even for seasoned hunters. Researchers say they'll fail to see a python they're tracking with a radio collar until they're practically standing on it.\nThe Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission allows hunters with special permits to remove pythons and other exotic reptiles from some state lands. Earlier this year, a state-sanctioned hunt that attracted worldwide media attention. Roughly 1,600 amateur python hunters joined the permit holders for a month, netting a total of 68 snakes.\nIn an Auburn University experiment, specially trained dogs found more pythons than their human counterparts, but researchers also found that the dogs, much like humans, would falter the longer they worked in South Florida's often oppressive humidity.\nState wildlife officials also try to catch pythons through \"exotic pet amnesty days\" where people can relinquish non-native species with no questions asked. They also urge residents to report encounters with pythons and other invasive species to a python hotline. Florida prohibits the possession or sale of pythons for use as pets, and federal law bans the importation and interstate sale of the species.\nA prolonged cold snap has proven to be one of the better methods of python population control, killing off large numbers of the snakes in 2010. The population rebounded, though, because low temperatures aren't reliable in subtropical South Florida and because pythons reproduce quickly and in large numbers.\nOther traps set for pythons in the past haven't been effective, but traps have been successfully used to capture other exotic species such as black-and-white tegu lizards, said conservation commission spokeswoman Carli Segelson.\n\"It may be something that if it doesn't work for the python, it may work for other species,\" she said.\nFollow Jennifer Kay on Twitter at www.twitter.com/jnkay .\nGiant snails vs. Florida: Florida turns the tide\nBy Laura Wides-Munoz Associated Press",

It could also affect the price Americans pay for car fuel, China\u2019s ability to keep its economy growing, and the stability of the region. Here\u2019s a few reasons to pay attention to the fighting in Sudan.\nFuel prices have remained in the range of $100 per barrel for more than a year because of \u201cheadline risks\u201d such as the Arab Spring movement, and more recently with growing tensions between the West and Iran over its nuclear program.\nSouth Sudan and its rival, Sudan, have ratcheted up their dispute over how to share oil revenues, as South Sudan shut down its oil production. Currently, the landlocked south must transport its oil to markets by pumping it through oil pipelines that go through the north, and the north is demanding high pumping fees for this service. In a brazen attack last week, South Sudan seized Heglig oil field, shutting off half of Sudan\u2019s remaining production, before withdrawing over the weekend.\nFor American consumers, instability in oil-producing countries is being felt at the pump, with pump prices 34 cents higher in the first quarter of 2012 than they were at this time last year. Any further shock \u2013 from piracy in the Indian Ocean, to Niger Delta militant attacks, to the current fighting in the two Sudans \u2013 could push those prices higher.\n\u201cI don't know if $4 a gallon is the tipping point, but I do know that [US] consumers are taking evasive action,\" energy analyst Tim Evans at Citi Futures in New York told Reuters news agency. \u201cThe higher prices go, the more heat politicians feel.\"",

Give us context, give us background.\n(01:09) Yeah Okta is a foundation for secure connections between people and technology, and we do that by providing a service that connects companies, enterprises around the globe to their customers their partners, and their employees letting those people use the best tools available to get their job done and we do that while making it very secure. So it\u2019s not enough just to provide access, but you also have to make it very secure in these days with security being so important.\n(01:39) We have about close to 25,000 customers globally and you know, with all the trends movement to cloud and all the innovation of cloud with mobile and then with security being in everyone\u2019s mind it\u2019s really powering a lot of our success.\n(01:54) So what does Okta actually do? What do you guys actually do?\n(02:01) The main thing we do is we really focus on making our customers successful adopting new technology. So if you\u2019re a company and you want to roll out a new cloud application or you want to use mobile devices across your workforce more effectively, we make that really easy to do and really secure.\n(02:20) And we do that by the category that we\u2019re in it\u2019s called Identity Management As a Service. So we really sit as a layer in the cloud that connects and integrates all of the directory services and all the security systems across all the phones and all the applications, and all the tablets and all the computers a company might have. So again it\u2019s easy to use in security are the benefits we bring as they roll out these new services.\n(02:41) Okay and tell us briefly about the history of Okta, how big you are. You just raised a lot of money and you now have a valuation of I think its $1.2 billion. So give us a sense of the company.\n(03:01) I started the company with my co-founder coming on seven years ago, so 2009, and before that my job was I ran engineering at salesforce.com and I had that job for about six years, and we can get into the history of Okta more and that\u2019s an important point of the story. And then before that I was an engineer and later a development manager at a company called People Soft. So this is my third job.\n(03:26) So you\u2019re an enterprise guy and tell us about your target market? Who are you selling to?\n(03:34) It\u2019s any company that any organization that is thinking about the best tools out there. So the best tools being cloud applications, smartphones, tablets, you know computers any company that wants to adopt technology can do it in a very easy and very secure way is a potential customer of Okta. So it\u2019s really - -I mean every organization in the world, every organization is trying to get more effective, trying to get more agile, really any industry trying to become a technology company themselves and we can help all of them.\n(04:07) It even makes it challenging sometimes because you know, if you\u2019re a company that\u2019s going after one vertical, like you\u2019re going after the Healthcare vertical or the financial services vertical it allows you to focus. But we have the blessing or the burden in some cases of really have to cover a very broad array of companies, but that\u2019s the potential. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so exciting, that\u2019s the massive potential we have.\n(04:27) So let\u2019s talk about security\u2026\n(04:33) \u2026I didn\u2019t answer your question about some of those basic stats about Okta. We have about 600 employees around the world, and you know, like I mentioned before over 2500 enterprise customers growing very quickly. We\u2019re a private company so we don\u2019t disclose revenue. But revenue is double in year after year, you know last year, next year, and the nexy couple of years, so we\u2019re growing very quickly and that\u2019s because what we do we do very well and that\u2019s make our customers very successful.\n(05:08) Customers choose Okta and they get benefits. They get these applications rolled out. They get new services built quickly and they become more agile companies, you know they decrease costs and you know, it\u2019s really resonating with them.\n(05:19) So you said your revenue is doubling year over year. How do you manage that, and you\u2019re the CEO of the company, so how do you manage a company that is growing to that extent?\n(05:34) Yeah, so it\u2019s interesting so I mentioned more than 600 people now, and the job I had before I started Okta, I worked at saleforce.com and I joined that company, it was a little smaller than Okta is now. It had about 300 people when I joined. But over the 6 years I was there, my team got up to about you know, several hundred people.\n(05:57) So in some sense the company Okta is finally getting to the size where I\u2019m comfortable and have experience in managing it. I feel like I\u2019ve done it before. So I think that\u2019s a key point which is you have to have people in the company that have seen this kind of growth before.\n(06:15) So it doesn\u2019t have to be every person, you know we have a lot of people that are early in their career or maybe there first job. We have a lot of people with varied backgrounds, but you have to have at least a mix of people that have seen this kind of growth before because you learn invaluable lesson when you go through it before.\n(06:31) When I was at salesforce.com and we were doubling year over year for a number of years, there\u2019s things that happen and you can see them coming and you can see you know, whether it\u2019s technical infrastructure or whether it\u2019s how you\u2019re going to staff, you have recruiting team, or how you\u2019re going to do budgeting, things that worked in the past or haven\u2019t worked in the past.\n(06:50) So the first thing I would say is make sure you mix in people that have done it before. The second thing is, which is kind of hard giving the first thing I just said which is you also have to have an open mind to how it might be different this time. Because if you have too many people that have done it before and they are too set in there ways, they won\u2019t recognize how the current growth and the current situation is different, because they are always different. Yu are never going to be the next salfforce.com, you\u2019re never going to be the next you know, company that\u2019s done xyz that\u2019s done it before, your situations going to be different. Your markets going to be different, the macroeconomic environment is going to be different, the technology stack is going to be different. So you have to mix between experiences of having done it before, but also have an open mind and think ahead of how it\u2019s different this time.\n(07:38) Then you know the last thing I\u2019ll throw in there before I let you ask a follow up is just it\u2019s hard work. It takes dedication. I mean people come to work at Okta all the time and they say you know, I knew this was going to be hard work, but this is hard work. And that\u2019s the kind of people we want. We want people that want to build something and building somethings hard work and you\u2019ve got to come to work every day ready to take that on and you know, put in a good long day of hard work and build something great.\n(08:08) So you have to be hiring people then who have a sense of mission about what you\u2019re doing because otherwise you know you need that to sustain it right? so how do you formulate that sense of mission, then how do you share it and cultivate it among the people working at the company, especially given the fact that when you\u2019re growing so rapidly you\u2019re bringing new people all the time.\n(08:35) Yeah, it\u2019s a really interesting question and it\u2019s one of the things that as a CEO is very different than my previous jobs. My previous jobs I was an engineer and then I was an architect and I was an engineering manager and was a VP of engineering. And those are definitely leadership positions and you have to make sure that the vision is laid out and but it\u2019s different. It\u2019s not like being the CEO. When you\u2019re the CEO, you\u2019re the keeper and the communicator of the vision primarily and you have to focus on that.\n(09:12) And first you have got to figure out a good vision that\u2019s compelling for people and when you figure that out I think sometimes people tend to chase the current and maybe attractive thing in industry, whether it\u2019s you know, maybe 10 years ago you were doing something and you started calling yourself social right because social was hot.\n(09:38) Then it went onto local, so then peoples visions kind of more often was something about local, right, social local or maybe it was big data. And the one thing I tell people is you\u2019ve got to be authentic. And when you have a vision you have to stick with it and you have to double down on it and be consistent on it.\n(09:58) You know, if you go back to what salesforce.com was so amazing at doing, it was very early on, they were the first really big company that said no software and it\u2019s going to be SaaS and cloud and no software. And they rode that vision and they imparted that vision incessantly for years and years and years to great effect.\n(10:21) So pick a vision, stick with it and then like when you\u2019re the CEO you have to really really repeat it a lot, even to the point where sometimes you\u2019re sick of hearing it yourself right. but as you mentioned, new people are joining the company and they haven\u2019t heard your vision and the new people you meet in the company are people you haven\u2019t see in a while they want to hear you talk about it.\n(10:40) So I\u2019ve had to learn how to do that continuously and you know, whether it\u2019s when we have our weekly all hands meeting, or every time, everything on the agenda in those meetings, whether it\u2019s an engineering demo or whether it\u2019s like a big sales do we won I always try to bring it back and preface the comments or frame it around the vison of the company, which is what I said earlier, our vision is to be the foundation that connects people to technology. It\u2019s very broad, very expansive and just keep repeating that and iterating that, and making sure you know people are onboard with it.\n(11:13) Okay, so you said that as the CEO you have to keep and maintain and communicate that vision. Is that the primary goal of the CEO? What is your primary job as CEO? I know it\u2019s very important maybe that\u2019s the key thing.\n(11:35) Yeah, well I think the main thing is that you\u2019re the keeper of the vision and the strategy. You don\u2019t want to necessarily have to invent, you don\u2019t have to make up the vision but you\u2019re the keeper of it. Meaning you have to own it and you have to communicate it, reiterate it, and make sure it\u2019s consistently communicated across the organization.\n(12:02) So, that\u2019s the first thing and then the second thing is it\u2019s your responsibility as the CEO to make sure the strategy of the company is employing is the right strategy. And that\u2019s very important. You have to own that strategy.\n(12:20) And then the last thing which is you know, equally important is, you have to be able to get the company to do what that strategy entails and executing on. So it\u2019s not only having the vision and making sure the strategy\u2019s right, but you have to be able to get the company to do the tactics and execute the tactics that will effectively implement that strategy.\n(12:44) And that third thing is hard because that\u2019s leadership right, and so you have these amazingly talented people at every company and you know if you\u2019re running the company you have amazingly talented people and they have a lot of options to go to different places and they\u2019re going to follow you, and why are they going to follow you. Well one of those things is get back to that vision right, and keep communicating it and have an interesting vision that they feel that they can really be a part of.\n(13:11) Okay so this is such an important topic. It\u2019s so crucial both for a startup like yourself, equally as much for large organizations in terms of being able to get people on the same page, to believe that vision, to support that vision, to want to participate with that vision. And for any company it\u2019s one of the most important and difficult challenges and you\u2019re in the hot seat so to speak at Okta. How do you do it? How do you get people, how do you coalesce people so that they want to be part of that vision? How do you do it?\n(13:49) Part of it is \u2013 it\u2019s interesting by the way you call us a startup. It kind of pains me to say this but I don\u2019t really think of us as a startup anymore. I mean, 600 people, growing quickly, some of the biggest companies in the world are entrusting their infrastructure on us.\n(14:07) I don\u2019t know, sometimes I would love to be that startup, that five person people in a garage, scrappy, no brand. But you know, we\u2019ve grown and we\u2019re not a startup anymore. We\u2019re on our way to being very important and independent long term technology player.\n(14:24) It\u2019s a really god point and sometime in the conversation we should actually have a quick discussion of what a startup actually means. But anyway, but please tell us how you get people to coalesce and support that vision and dig in. How do you do that?\n(14:43) Yeah, well the first thing is it goes back to communicating it consistently but a little bit different importance in terms of when you hire new people, you\u2019ve got to lay it out their early when you interview and when you talk to people so they can self-select, right. I mean if when we talk to people that we want to hire to join the company we try to lay it out there, like here\u2019s what we\u2019re trying to do. We\u2019re trying to connect everyone with all of technology. We\u2019re trying to be the foundation for that secure connection, and that\u2019s very broad.\n(15:20) And if you\u2019re not excited about the future of technology, whether it\u2019s mobile or cloud computing, and if you\u2019re not excited about companies being more productive and more secure because of that new technology then you should go and work somewhere else.\n(15:33) So lay it out there and tell them. It\u2019s hard work. I mean building the future and implementing this service is not easy, and selling it is hard work, and you have to self-select in, and that builds like an esprit de corps. You know, like you know how and this is not the perfect analogy but to go through in the military you have to like go to boot camp right. and boot camp is they\u2019re training people, but it\u2019s also like a hurdle. If you pass that hurdle you\u2019re aligned with the mission right and there\u2019s a lesson to be learnt from that. not that we have boot camps when you join Okta, but if you communicate the vision you have to make it really clear that when they join the company they\u2019re going to be more aligned with that vision.\n(16:20) And then now that once they have joined the company have a sense that they can affect your progress towards that vision. So in other words they have to feel that the vision is their own and feel that the company\u2019s their own, and feel like that they\u2019re a key part of it versus just joining something right.\n(16:46) One thing I like to say, we\u2019re not looking for people that want to get on a rocket and ride it. like we want people that want to build a rocket, and there is a difference right. people that want to build a rocket, it\u2019s more ownership and they feel it more deeply than people that are just maybe a long for the ride. So again, it comes back to communicating the vision and helping people self-select into it and once they\u2019re in giving them space to you feel like what they can do really makes a difference.\n(17:16) So when you\u2019re growing so rapidly, I totally get what you\u2019re say that you want people who are interested in building the rocket and not just riding the rocket. But when you\u2019re growing so rapidly, how do you maintain consistency, how do you find all of these people who share this what is truly a unique attribute, this desire to build. How do you find these people, how do you ensure that you are getting the right people, it\u2019s a really hard job.\n(17:50) Yeah, I mean there\u2019s no magic. I mean we don\u2019t always get it right, I mean not everyone we hire works out. You know, either they choose to leave or you know it doesn\u2019t work out and we part ways. But you know just laying it out there and it\u2019s the brand of the company. I mean just having this conversation with you and maybe people that watch this could be potential recruits for Okta, and they\u2019re going to hear what I\u2019m saying, and hear what we\u2019re about and you know, that will help them opt in or opt out. And you know, people are smart and people are capable and people can do amazing things if you just layout the high level parameters and let them flourish underneath that.\n(18:35) Okay, so we have a question picking up something that you said from Alan Bergson, who is from Freshdesk, and he\u2019s a loyal listener of CXOTalk, and Alan we love you for that thank you.\n(18:48) Freshdesk, that\u2019s awesome, an awesome company.\n(18:50) And so Alan asks, so when is a startup not a startup? When does a startup stop becoming a startup? Everybody talks of unicorn startups and all of this and the billion dollar evaluations, and yet, you described yourself as an enterprise company with 600 people and a lot of customers. What makes a startup?\n(19:14) It\u2019s interesting, it used to be when you went public. You were a startup then it went public and you were not a startup. But know you know, companies are waiting longer to go public, so you have companies that are \u2013 I mean companies that are big companies. I mean Facebook probably had 4000 people \u2013 well maybe not that big, but it\u2019s probably like 2000 people before they went public, so that definition doesn\u2019t really work anymore.\n(19:39) I think there\u2019s probably three stages. The first stage is you know, pre-product, pre-revenue. The second stage is you have a product but no revenue. And then the third stage is product and revenue, and I think once you get passed product and revenue it\u2019s different. It\u2019s not really a startup. It\u2019s more like growth and scale.\n(20:04) So once you get passed product and revenue and yet the world still thinks of these companies. We hear about unicorn startups, we don\u2019t hear about unicorn big companies.\n(20:15) Yeah, so the original TechCrunch article which kicked off the unicorn name it actually just didn\u2019t distinguish between public and private. A lot of companies in that first article if you read it a few years ago was all about you know, it had to be founded in the last 10 years and had to have over a billion dollar valuation, and a bunch of companies on there that were public. And the whole concept of unicorn was that it\u2019s very rare. You know, thousands and thousands of companies started every year and at the time only 30 or 25 companies had a billion dollars.\n(20:52) So unicorns were actually nothing to do with being private or public it was just valuation. But I don\u2019t think necessarily valuation is the right metric. I tend to look at those three things you know, do they have a product and revenue. If they don\u2019t have product and revenue it\u2019s really a startup, you don\u2019t know what\u2019s going to happen. If they have a product it\u2019s les of a startup, but you know, once they get revenue and product then it\u2019s probably called something else.\n(21:19) So Steve Blank I\u2019m sure you know is a great entrepreneur and teaches at Stanford, and dose a bunch of other things and he\u2019s been a guest here on CXOTalk\u2026\n(21:33) \u2026Just ask you a question I was going to be flattered.\n(21:37) I wish. Steve if you\u2019re out there we want to hear osmosis, hypnosis, however you do it, mental telepathy, we want questions from you.\n(21:45) My co-founder Freddie Kerrest and I started Okta, we read that book, The Four Steps to the Epiphany, it was kind of an inspiration to some of the early things we did.\n(21:54) Steve is amazing, he is truly amazing. So he makes the comment that he believes that a startup is a temporary organization in search of a business model, temporary meaning it\u2019s changing, it\u2019s evolving in search of a business model, and so can we add business model stability to that list of what actually defines a startup or not.\n(22:17) Yeah, you know it\u2019s interesting and I think in my definition you notice I said product and then revenue right. I kind of glossed over the fact that there needs to be revenue and a sustainable business model and that shows maybe my perspective right, because in our business which is if you can get revenue from the largest companies in the world and you\u2019ve built a cloud service that\u2019s very scalable, you have a business model.\n(22:43) So it\u2019s almost like a client in my definition, but it is a good point, you know, you could have a product that is selling dollars for 85c and that\u2019s not a business model. And there are some industries and companies that fall into that. That\u2019s a more precise definition of what I said and I probably agree with Steven on that.\n(23:04) Okay, so we\u2019re talking about these valuations and when you as the CEO and the co-founder of the company, decide to take that much money, that much invested money, there are implications. Please, share with us what those implications are and also you\u2019re logic process. What are the pros and the cons that you weigh as you were thinking this through.\n(23:34) So it changes over the years and over the stage of the company and the realms of investment so it\u2019s hard to answer in abstract because it kind of depends on the stage. But one thing I will say and we can maybe get a follow up question for more specifics if it will be helpful.\n(23:53) One thing I will say though is when my co-founder and I started off, one of the things we did very very early was to have a talk about personally and professionally what are our objectives, what are we trying to do. And we were very clear from the beginning that our goal was to build a important independent technology company that would be around a long time.\n(24:19) And in tech it usually means the companies are big right, because in technology the companies get big, so big and independent technology company, so along the way with that being our goal that makes the funding decisions much easier. So for example, if you\u2019re not sure you want to be independent it really makes a different context for funding decisions, especially early on. You don\u2019t want a certain high valuation early on if you think you might want to sell the company, because you\u2019ll basically price out the time it acquires, right.\n(24:56) So you see a lot of entrepreneurs struggle with that and it\u2019s like, if we do this round and the valuation is going to go up and it takes a bunch of requires off the playing field and things like that. Also our early alignment on that also informs a lot of other decisions like for example, every time you raise a round of financing, you\u2019re selling part of the company right. So the employees and the founders owns less of the company, but they have more money. But if you\u2019re thinking about, this might be an acquisition, or this might not be a big company someday, you\u2019re hesitant to sell shares because you don\u2019t want your percentage to go down.\n(25:36) For Okta, since we had this vision of being an independent company long term, it was easier for us to say, hey we would rather make his pie much larger, we might own a smaller percentage of it but we\u2019re aligned and we want to be a long term independent highly valuable company. We\u2019re okay taking investment and maybe our own percentage goes down a little bit. And you see a lot of entrepreneurs get hung up on that. They don\u2019t want to get to have absolution and they don\u2019t want to own a small percentage so they get hung up on that.\n(26:05) The last thing is you know, you look at the competitive market and environment and you say, how are we doing, how can we invest more to extend our lead, what are the competitors doing, what would our budget look like if we increase the budget with more money, and every time we\u2019ve done that at Okta we\u2019ve you know, it\u2019s made a lot of sense that our rely on more money in the company has been very good, so that\u2019s a short description of kind of how we got here.\n(26:32) So Alan asks a follow-up question and he says when you started Okta there were other players in this space, so how did you get traction initially. I think this is a key question that every entrepreneur wants to know, how do you get traction?\n(26:49) I was just talking about this to a friend of mine the other day. The first thing a lot of people have is they want to do something different. Their company or their idea, and what they want to do it\u2019s got to be something that no one has ever done before and it\u2019s totally different and you know, that will make them successful.\n(27:08) And ironically I think that\u2019s the wrong way to do it, because when you take that approach, you end up coming up with an idea that\u2019s so narrow and such a niche that it\u2019s not big. No one wants it. or only a small group of people want it. so you can dominate like the people that want a video on demand for like cat videos right so very small.\n(27:29) Ironically what you really want to do is you want to take the biggest most obvious market and that\u2019s what you want to attack. And you get bonus points if it\u2019s a big obvious market and it\u2019s very hard to see that it\u2019s a big obvious market. You know the great companies you know like Facebook. There were a lot of social networks around but they were able to see that they weren\u2019t scared of doing that. They were able to do it in a better way and started with colleges and so forth.\n(28:01) Like Google, there are a lot of search engines around but they did it better and you know, the huge mass of market that was everything went on the web and all needed search right.\n(28:11) And so with Okta, was the first thing we did was web, single sign on for cloud applications, and there were a bunch of companies that were doing that. So the first thing for some people it\u2019s like yeah, there\u2019s a bunch of people doing that, it\u2019s a commodity, it\u2019s not that interesting. And our belief was always that web single sign on had a couple of very interesting elements of it.\n(28:37) The first one\u2019s that it\u2019s yeah, there are a lot of solutions that did it but no one did it really well. and it was a problem that every company had or soon every company would have. And yeah, it might be theoretically easy to build or a commodity, but it was a commodity that everyone used, right. it\u2019s like sugar. It\u2019s good to be in the sugar business but it\u2019s a commodity but it\u2019s good to be in the sugar business.\n(28:59) Also the other important thing about web single sign on is that if you build a platform that could do very easy web single sing on for web applications, what you would really be building on the back end was a universal directory service that could be the foundation for much more. Very strategic. It could be this foundation for securely connecting people with technology. So it had an entry point that was needed by everyone and relatively easy to adopt and then long term could be very fundamental platform for all these companies.\n(29:32) So we were just talking about getting traction in an environment where there are competitors. How about know, how much time and effort do you spend thinking about your competition, because I know sometimes some people obsess about their competitors, other people say no, we\u2019re focused on our thing and let them do what they want. So where do you fit on that.\n(29:57) I just realized I didn\u2019t answer Alans question or your question before. I got too excited about what I was saying. Alan hinted at and you asked the question about how do we get customers and how did we get started. And one thing I\u2019ll say is that one thing we did very early at Okta was we were sales people very early. Even before we had a product, we were out there with a drawing of the product, with a mock-up of the product, you know, talking to customers, getting feedback, pouring that into the product design.\n(30:34) And that really helped us get a couple of early wins and a couple of customers, that even though there were other choices out there, they knew us and they liked us. But more importantly it made that customer feedback loop strong in the company. And those kind of cultural things pile on and really become a key part of the culture as the company grows. Because everyone knows that we listen to customers. Everyone knows that the product strategy is formed by customers. We\u2019re not in some lab dreaming up something that no one will want. We\u2019re going to test the market and see what customers need. And that\u2019s how we did it.\n(31:06) It was like a lot of leg work and a lot of you know, on the road, on the ground talking to customers and building what they wanted.\n(31:14) Now your question about competition, it\u2019s super interesting. So in the early days of the company you are, you know, it\u2019s a little bit daunting. You pick a space that you think is big so that there\u2019s probably going to be some competitors, and there are a lot of competitors. And you kind of get worried about every release that they do and you know, you get a little bit lucky and you have some good execution and you get some key wins and you start pulling ahead of all these little competitors.\n(31:39) And then at least in Okta\u2019s case it was, oh this is interesting, but it\u2019ll never be big enough. This is just single sign up for cloud applications, it\u2019s not big enough. Aren\u2019t there enough cloud applications, I\u2018ve heard that. Do people really need this, you know, oh it\u2019s a commodity; you know it\u2019s not a big enough opportunity.\n(31:36) And then you have a bunch of more success, a couple more years go by and you get thousands of customers, your revenue gets really material. And then, which is at the stage where we are now, now all of the biggest software companies in the world want to do what we\u2019re doing.\n(32:12) Microsoft wants to do what we\u2019re doing, salesforce.com wants to do what we\u2019re doing. You know and people always ask me like, oh you have all these big competitors, is it scary? And yes, it\u2019s kind of scary whenever you have a competitor, but it wasn\u2019t as scary as four years ago, five years ago when everyone told me like there\u2019s no market for this. You don\u2019t have a company here, it\u2019s like, it\u2019s not as scary as that. so it\u2019s a deferent world, but it\u2019s a much better world to be in.\n(32:38) So we have a follow-up question on this traction issues from Constance D Woodson and Constance than you for your question, who asks, is it safe to say traction is not something that no one else dose, but do the obvious things better.\n(32:58) Yeah, I mean it has to be obvious in the sense that if you\u2019re working at a company or a startup that you can\u2019t explain to people in like a minute, you need to think about that, because you should be able to explain it in a minute.\n(33:15) I mean think of all the great companies it was you know Microsoft, you know makes your PC work. Google, we search, Facebook, social media, Uber, car on demand. These companies are you know, you have to be able to simply explain what they do. For Okta it was like, cloud apps, web single sign on, one user ID one user password.\n(33:38) And another thing about it is like, if it\u2019s so obvious and there\u2019s got to be a little bit of luck involved right. like for Google, they were the best search engine and by the way everything in the world went online. Then all of a sudden you couldn\u2019t have a directory like Yahoo had, you had to have a search engine.\n(33:37) You know, for Facebook it was you know this massive thing that college students adopted and once they had, you know, tens of millions of college students it spread from there. So it has to be obvious and there has to be some luck and some fortunate timing. You know for us, it\u2019s really kind of yeah, everyone wants web single sign on, but with this massive move to cloud and mobile having the infrastructure of what you had to build, if you have web single sign on is a very powerful platform to extend from.\n(34:27) So it\u2019s like it\u2019s tricky right. It\u2019s obvious, Plus you have to have some luck or some advantage that it won\u2019t be too crowded and big companies won\u2019t just com you know, eat your lunch too soon.\n(34:39) Okay, let\u2019s take another question from Twitter. I love you guys asking questions on Twitter. This is all about connecting the audience to great thinkers and practitioners like Todd McKinnon, who is our guest whose the CEO of Okta. So Arsalan Khan asks, do you think there will be one ID system for the internet like the social security numbers of the future.\n(35:12) I do not think there will be. I think it\u2019s very hard. My view of the world is that it will get better at integrating the various systems out there. I think the grand unified theory of one ID for the whole internet is probably not practical. I mean the reason that \u2013 and this is me speculating, but I think the reason why that the people who built the internet and built the protocols didn\u2019t build in a protocol for universal identity was because it would be too centralized and hard to manage. They did some, centralized things like the DNS services is centralized and logically centralized than physically distributed but everything else was very decentralized. You know, everything from hoe TCP/IP works to you know http and all these things were very decentralized.\n(36:01) So I don\u2019t think so. I do think that there will be much better tools to integrate and hand off the identities that we have. There have been some attempts at this like open ID and other things and there\u2019s been some collaboration, but I think we\u2019ll get better at that. but I don\u2019t think there will be a universal you know, Michael has his one internet ID and that\u2019s used across everything.\n(36:23) Okay, so we have about 10 minutes left\u2026\n(36:26) You can play that video back when I\u2019m wrong in like 10 years and I\u2019ll look like a fool.\n(36:29) Well we definitely plan to file that one away and check the prediction in 10 years and we\u2019ll see.\n(36:34) I\u2019ll link that video to Steve Bonner saying that the iPhone was an overpriced you know, crappy computer without a keyboard that didn\u2019t work (drumroll)\n(36:45) So much for the iPhone on what did you just call it? Say that again.\n(36:49) There\u2019s that video of I think Steve Bonner called it a overpriced computer without a keyboard that didn\u2019t do email very well. (Wha-wha wha wha) Very nice.\n(37:01) Okay, so we have 10 minutes left and there\u2019s actually a lot of topics we could talk about. I just have one last question on the unicorn and startup topic, it\u2019s got to be fun having everyone saying, oh, Okta is the next, newest unicorn it has to be fun right, it has to be.\n(37:28) Define fun. So for me \u2013 listen, what\u2019s exciting for me is that people are hearing our story, and people get excited about success and the press wants to write about success and talk about success. And we\u2019ve had a little bit of success which is great, and if they want to give it a name and talk more about us, I\u2019m all over that. because I want people to understand about what we\u2019re doing and I want them to understand that we can help make their companies more productive and more agile, and more secure. And we have a really really great product to help them do that. and if I have to get called an imaginary animal to get that word out, I\u2019ll take it.\n(38:09) That is good, so if you have to be called an imaginary animal to help get the word out of what you do, then it works for you.\n(38:17) I\u2019m all over that.\n(38:18) Alright, I love it. okay, so before we go, I think we should spend a few minutes talking about security in the enterprise and maybe giving advice, so if you\u2019re the CIO balancing with the needs of security on the one side versus giving open access and availability to resources and mobile devices and so forth to your employees and even your ecosystems in some cases. This is a very very hard job so,\n(38:54) Every company has a heard job.\n(38:55) Yeah, it\u2019s really hard so what are your thoughts or advice that you can share to CIOs who are having to face this issue now on a daily basis.\n(39:05) Yeah, it is hard and I would not trivialize it by saying that any one or two pieces of advice could solve all the challenges they have. but I think the right place to start is, the CIOs that have been successful that I\u2019ve talked to and I\u2019ve met and I\u2019ve learned from, they\u2019ve been effective at dividing up the data and the assets they have and knowing which ones are very important and require a lot of security and which ones don\u2019t. in other words you\u2019re going to go wrong if you just look at everything you have in your portfolio, and all these portfolios of a company of any size are incredibly diverse and have a hybrid nature and their complex, and there\u2019s different vendors, different data centers and different SaaS applications and cloud infrastructure. And you\u2019re going to fail if you take a blanket look and say, we\u2019re going to try and secure all of these at the same level. You\u2019re going to lock it down too much. You\u2019re not going to allow your users access and ease of use.\n(40:12) But then you\u2019re also going to fail if you go the other extreme and you\u2019re totally open and say, hey we\u2019re going to have low security posture on everything. So the ones that I\u2019ve emt that have been successful have had an effective way to classify different things, whether it\u2019s this is a financial asset, this is R&D, this is properties we\u2019re going to secure that differently.\n(40:31) And then they\u2019ve kind of built their framework around those different classification and they\u2019ve done the right security policies based on those classifications. So if it\u2019s stuff that\u2019s very sensitive and they\u2019re very open and allow all kinds of tools to collaborate on applications and data, if it\u2019s the crown jewels it\u2019s maybe not even on the internet right. The people I\u2019ve seen have been effective to do that.\n(40:57) So basically you\u2019re saying take a realistic and nuance view of the acceptable level of risks associated with each type of data system department whatever it might be.\n(41:12) Yeah, you know and starting by classifying it which is the hard thing. Like come up with five classifications and say this is top secret, this is you know some risk and then work everything out of that, you know. I\u2019ve seen some companies that if it\u2019s the most sensitive kind of thing it\u2019s not even on the network.\n(41:34) If you look at some of the big high profile breaches it\u2019s clear that they weren\u2019t doing that because they had the same level of or lack of protection across everything, even though some of the things were incredibly sensitive that were revealed but some of them weren\u2019t, so it\u2019s that coarse grain approach doesn\u2019t work.\n(41:58) And basically it\u2019s impossible to eliminate every risk that\u2019s out there. So there for taking that nuance view of classifying the risks will help you determine where to allocate your resources and your degree of stringency of your security policies.\n(42:16) Yeah it\u2019s like life is risky right, it\u2019s all about managing the risk. The other thing I\u2019ll say is that a lot of it is the basics right. sometimes people make security really exoteric and they get talking about sophisticated vulnerabilities and worms and cryptographic algorithms, but a lot of the issues are basic, like who is authorized to log into this system, is this basic port open tot the internet, and it\u2019s not getting caught up in all the complexity and the hype, but doing the basic things.\n(42:58) And I think when you can do that, especially around the most sensitive things once you decide which ones are most sensitive. If you only know that some of your infrastructure is most sensitive, you\u2019re much more likely to go around and make sure the basics are locked down, right. It\u2019s the ports aren\u2019t open to the internet and patches are applied to the machine and and it has strong two factor authentication and the basics right. but it\u2019s very daunting to go into this environment that is hybrid, complex, and expansive and say, I\u2019ve got to make sure that all the ports are locked down, all the virus scanners are on and all the two factors across everything, all the patches are applied, that can be very daunting to do it for large scale infrastructure.\n(43:39) So we have just a couple of minutes left, so Todd before we go why don\u2019t you give us the full on sales pitch of Okta.\n(43:53) I already did. It was so subtle you didn\u2019t notice it! So Okta is, I said it upfront. If you\u2019re any organization that needs to connect their people with their technology, in an easier and more secure way, that\u2019s what we do and you should think about Okta. Whether it\u2019s like I said, you know enabling employees, partners, or customers that use their own phone to access their mobile apps or whether it\u2019s building a new web app to get better customer service. Or whether it\u2019s just some simple thing like rolling out a new cloud application to all of your employees, we make that really easy to log into that, and to make it secure so you can do the right security policy across different types of environments and very easy. Really, it\u2019s an unprecedented ease of use for an industry like identity management that kind of has some history of not being the most easiest and most productive of use.\n(44:48) So ease of use was a core design goal for you?\n(44:50) Yeah, we really started the whole thing when we started was we\u2019re not going to build a toolkit, we\u2019re going to build a solution. So it\u2019s not going to be, here\u2019s some protocols and here\u2019s some codes bits that you could use to wire up. The single sign on it was, it\u2019s going to be a pre-integrated directory server with direct implications, all the protocols hidden under the seat, packages. And even now, people look at Okta services and are blown away by how fast and easy it is. There have been people in data management industry forever and they are unfathomable in how fast and easy it is.\n(45:22) So today, when you\u2019re designing the product I\u2019m assuming that you\u2019re always balancing functionality against ease of use.\n(45:31) Yeah, and you know we\u2019ve a great design team that helps with that and the product team makes that tradeoff, but I would say, even beyond that, ease of use and functionality. I would say like what are customers going to use in the these successful ways, getting back to that customer driven approach. You know, if there is something that is so hard to use, the customers are never going to be able to use it, then I don\u2019t care if it checks some checkbox on some RFP, we\u2019re not going to do it.\n(45:58) Make it easy for customers?\n(46:00) Yeah, sounds basic.\n(46:02) That\u2019s a pretty good place to end. That\u2019s a great message. So we have been talking to Todd McKinnon who is the CEO of Okta. Todd thank you so much for taking the time.\n(46:22) I really appreciated it, thank you Michael.\n(46:24) And I hope you\u2019ll come back and do this again another time.\n(46:26) I will.\n(46:27) Alright everybody, thank you for watching and we will see you again very soon.

A man called, furious about a Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando. He said he was expecting an ocean-view room.

I got a call from a man who asked, \"Is it possible to see England from Canada?\"\nHe said, \"But they look so close on the Map.\"\n6. Another man called and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas.

(Photo by Jennifer Cappuccio Maher, Inland Valley Daily Bulletin/SCNG)\n\u201cOur coming together today is a resistance,\u201d actress and activist Laverne Cox told the estimated 200,000-plus demonstrators gathered in downtown Los Angeles.\n\u201cWe come with demands for justice, for equity. We come today peaceably, but we also come to fight.\u201d\nParticipants claimed recent victories for their movement, including a record-setting turnout for the 2018 midterm election that helped turn Republic strongholds such as Orange County blue and elect more women than ever to Congress.\n\u201cWomen across the country are leading the way and they\u2019re taking this country back,\u201d Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi, D- Torrance told a crowd of more than 300 people gathered at Veterans Park in Redondo Beach.\nThose victories coupled with ideal January weather helped give many of Saturday\u2019s marches a celebratory feel.\nA troupe of ballet folklorico dancers greeted some 4,000 marchers in downtown Riverside. In Santa Ana, murals depicted societal issues such as motherhood while a chalk wall let demonstrators share their thoughts on the movement. And in Los Angeles, marchers could stop for a bacon-wrapped hotdog as a balloon dubbed \u201cBaby Trump\u201d floated by.\nCelebrities including actress Anjelica Huston, singer Lance Bass and \u201cModern Family\u201d star Sarah Hyland were spotted at the L.A. march.\nAdding to the lightness of the day were the clever signs marchers carried, with slogans such as \u201cThe Fempire Strikes Back,\u201d \u201cWe are not ovary-acting\u201d and \u201cTweet others the way you want to be tweeted.\u201d\nBut the message demonstrators carried was serious, with speakers addressing equal pay for women, workers rights, support for immigrants and the LGBTQ community, equity for indigenous communities and more. They expressed enduring anger over Brett Kavanaugh\u2019s Supreme Court appointment in the face of sexual assault allegations. And many called for Trump\u2019s impeachment.\n\u201cWe touch on so many issues because so many issues affect women,\u201d said Emiliana Guereca, director of Women\u2019s March Los Angeles, which is one of the largest marches in the world. \u201cAnd I think that\u2019s part of why we\u2019re successful.\u201d\nAs many as 5 million people are estimated to have participated during the first Women\u2019s March in 2017, the day after Trump was sworn in as president.\nSoon thereafter, the #MeToo movement flourished, challenging a culture that allowed sexual violence and gender double standards to endure. The subsequent boost to women as civic leaders is perhaps the most important force in today\u2019s American politics.\nTurnout was expected to fall this year after months of controversy stemming from the accusations of antisemitism, homophobia and a general lack of inclusivity that have plagued the Women\u2019s March movement.\nMarcher Ali Ozeri, who marched in LA with a sign that read \u201cYou\u2019re not listening to Jewish women,\u201d said she thinks the backlash caused many activists to stay home this year.\nThe internal tensions were most keenly felt in New York. An alternate women\u2019s march organization held a parallel rally a few miles away from the official New York Women\u2019s March event, and activist Laura Loomer disrupted the main protest, calling it \u201cthe real Nazi march.\u201d\nIn East Coast cities, wintery weather and federal politics didn\u2019t help. Organizers of the Washington, D.C. march had to change locations at the last minute since the National Park Service isn\u2019t plowing the National Mall during the partial government shutdown.\nSmall numbers of counter-protesters appeared at local marches. In Redondo Beach, Arthur Schaper wore a red \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d hat and defended Trump. And in Los Angeles, a women wearing a costume that made it look as though Trump was carrying her on his back held a sign that called for the defunding of Planned Parenthood, with the slogan \u201cKill your inconvenience on your dime \u2014 not mine.\u201d\nBut law enforcement didn\u2019t report any serious issues at Southern California marches. And, despite the smaller crowds, attendees said they\u2019re encouraged by how these marches have sparked ongoing engagement on everything from housing the homeless to supporting the teachers on strike in Los Angeles.\n\u201cIt sensitized us to the problems at the local level,\u201d said Kim Vander Dussen of Anaheim.\nMeanwhile, organizers are already looking to the future.\nThey hope next year\u2019s marches will swell again, as everyone starts to focus on the coming presidential election.\n\u201cWe definitely want to remind people it\u2019s not over,\u201d said Nichole Ramirez, who organized the Orange County march that drew an estimated 15,000 people Saturday. \u201cThere\u2019s still a march to 2020.\u201d\nReporters Ariella Plachta, Jeong Park, Kat Schuster and Shannon M. Hoffman, along with the Associated Press, contributed to this report.",

        "raw_content": "Could your teeth be causing your headaches?\nHeadaches are one of the more common medical complaints people have. Headaches can range from annoying to debilitating. Another problem with headaches is that they can be chronic, returning day after day. Despite their frequency, it can be very hard to track down the cause of headaches.\nIf you have been to one or more doctors to seek help with your headaches, but have been able to get a true diagnosis and successful headache treatment, perhaps you need to go in a different direction. Perhaps you need a dentist.\nWhere you feel the pain is not necessarily the source of the pain. Your headaches could actually be caused by your teeth and jaw. If you have a cavity, the pain could lead to stress that becomes a headache. In addition, your dental pain could be trigger for headaches, especially migraine headaches.\nAnother common cause of headaches is temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ).\nTemporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) is a neuromuscular jaw condition caused by an imbalanced bite. The temporomandibular joints are located on either side of your skull, where the lower jaw attaches to the skull.\nThis joint has to be flexible to perform its role in eating, speaking, and breathing, but also has to be strong enough to perform those roles and to support itself constantly. You may not be aware of it, but your jaw is constantly working, even while you sleep. When your joint is out of order, it can lead to a number of problems.\nSome of the more common problems relate to the joint\u2019s proximity to nerves, muscles, and blood vessels involved in supporting and supplying the head. When you suffer from TMJ, the jaw joint can put pressure on these nerves, muscles, and blood vessels, which can lead to facial pain and headaches.\nWhen TMJ causes pressure to be put on the nerves, muscles, and blood vessels that pass nearby it, the result can be headaches.\nThe trigeminal nerve passes very near the temporomandibular joint. This nerve controls messages that pass between the brain and the face, including pain signals.\nWhen pressure is put on the trigeminal nerve, the result can be spasms, pressure, or pain in the face or behind the eyes. This can cause inflammatory reactions and contribute to \u2018sinus\u2019 headaches.\nWhen you are suffering from TMJ, the muscles of the head and neck may have to work harder to keep your head balanced and to perform the normal functions of speaking, breathing, and chewing. This can cause tension all around the head and in the upper neck, which can lead to chronic tension headaches.\nMigrains are among the most intense headaches, and TMJ can serve as a chronic migraine trigger. When TMJ leads to irritation of the trigeminal nerve, it can cause the release of a number of chemicals in the brain that eventually lead to a migraine. Migraines can also occur if you are experiencing reduced flow of blood in the brain due to pressure of blood vessels.\nHow a dentist treats TMJ\nNot just any dentist can help you with TMJ treatment. Dentists trained in handling TMJ are known as neuromuscular dentists. These dentists can study the mouth system as a whole and maneuver your jaw joint back into place where it can function harmoniously, without interfering with adjacent systems.",

This difficulty is evidenced by the fact that, even with only a cursory check, we were able to find betting shops of different bookmakers (including in Moscow and St. Petersburg) whose location violates the requirements established by the Law on Gambling.\nThat said, checking the future location of a BO for compliance with the requirements of the Law on Gambling is very easy to do. We covered this in the linked table.\nPlease also note that it is highly recommended to check the status of the BO for compliance with the requirements of the Law on Gambling from time to time after opening, since these requirements can be violated by the licensee if the property where the BO is located changes its status or another tenant (e.g., a medical facility, a children\u2019s institution (kindergarten) or a religious center) moves into the same building.",

        "raw_content": "WATCH: Ronan Hale celebrates his first Cup Final victory with his 'lucky charm'\nDERRY CITY's Ronan Hale says he needs no extra motivation ahead of Wednesday's FAI Cup quarter-final against Bohemians after getting his first taste of cup success on Sunday.\nThe 20 year-old Belfast lad netted the opening goal in the 3-1 victory over Cobh Ramblers in the EA Sports Cup Final at Brandywell Stadium.\nTaking advantage of a defensive error, he cut inside James McSweeney onto his left foot and rolled it past goalkeeper, Adam Mylod at the near post with 23 minutes on the clock. It was his 12th goal of the season in all competitions and it set Derry on their way to an 11th league cup triumph.\nOver 100 supporters from Newington in his native north Belfast arrived on Foyleside to support Ronan and his brother Rory. And Ronan was delighted to share the experience with his one year-old daughter Mya who he carried out onto the pitch prior to kick-off.\nDescribing her as his 'lucky charm', Ronan is hoping the fortune carries over to Wednesday night when they meet the in-form Bohemians for a place in the FAI Cup semi-finals where Cork City await.\n\"It couldn't have ended any better,\" said the Republic of Ireland U21 international. \"It was a great win and I got my goal early in the first half and that set the pace.\nDerry's Ronan Hale with his daughter Mya\n\"It was great to have my daughter out to walk out with me and win it with her beside me. She's brought me the good luck,\" he beamed.\n\"It's absolutely brilliant and I'd like to shout out to everybody who came. It was a class crowd and it helped us big time.\n\"We have a big game on Wednesday and that win today will boost us big time. You can see everyone is buzzing. Hopefully we win on Wednesday now.\"\nAnd he believes, with the first piece of silverware in six years in the bag, the win will give the players huge confidence for Wednesday's crunch clash with the Gypsies.\nDerry's Rory Hale and Ronan Hale celebrate with the trophy\n\"It will give us a lot of confidence,\" he added. \"I know they (Bohs) are on a good run and after beating Cork there but we've just won a cup final and there's no more motivation needed.\"\nHe's enjoyed a fantastic debut season in senior football during his loan spell from Birmingham City. Scoring his first senior hat-trick against Limerick, his first goal in European football against Dinamo Minsk and a first international goal for Ireland U21s, he's enjoyed a memorable campaign.\nHowever, he's hoping it's not the end of the celebrations as he dares to dream of another cup final next November with the club potentially just two home games away from an FAI Cup showpiece at the Aviva Stadium.\n\"I'm just taking it as it comes. I love the game of football. Scoring is a bonus because it's my job as well. I'm just buzzing to be playing.\"",

Although the area is dominated by row-crop agriculture, it is dotted with islands and corridors of native grasslands, river bottoms, bluff tops, wetlands, and woodlands. The south region includes 39 counties. Minnesota's remaining prairies and wetlands make up some of the best wildlife habitats in southern Minnesota, providing sanctuary for breeding and migratory wildlife.\nThe Minnesota and Mississippi River valleys form a migratory corridor for songbirds, raptors, waterfowl and congregations of bald eagles and tundra swans. Bald eagles now nest near lakes, marshes and rivers of the southwestern part of this region. The southeastern part of the region has the highest diversity of reptiles and amphibians in the state. As a result, these species are a priority for conservation activities. Various projects are targeting such species as the timber rattlesnake, blue racer, bullsnake, softshell turtle and wood turtle. The Blanding's turtle population here is one of the largest in the United States.\nNongame services include:\nproviding endangered and nongame species information to professionals in and outside the DNR, as well as technical expertise\nparticipation in community activities such as birding festivals and field trips\nProjects conducted by Nongame staff focus on habitat conservation and restoration for nongame wildlife species, such as prescribed burning and invasive species control. Survey efforts include monitoring listed species, such as the federally endangered Karner blue butterfly, and tracking the more common nongame wildlife, such as colonial waterbirds and loons. Restoration projects for trumpeter swans and river otters have brought these species back to southwestern Minnesota in recent years.

        "title": "The Big Deal About Marijuana Use | The Dr. Oz Show",
        "raw_content": "By Paula Riggs, MD\nMarijuana is the most commonly used illegal drug in the U.S. In the past five years, rising rates of adult and adolescent marijuana use in the U.S. has been linked to the broad perception that marijuana is a relatively low-risk \"recreational\" drug and does not lead to addiction. A recent 2013 national Gallup poll reported that 58% of Americans currently support legalization of marijuana. Colorado and Washington have recently passed such legislation, legalizing the sale of \"recreational\" marijuana and a number of other states are currently considering similar legislation. In light of this growing national momentum, it is important for the public to have access to accurate scientific information and be informed of current research findings regarding the health risks and benefits of marijuana and the public health implications of increasing access and use of marijuana.\nThe Ebola Crisis Spirals Out of Control\nResearch shows that individuals who occasionally use marijuana may suffer fewer negative consequences and have a lower risk of becoming addicted in comparison to those who use regularly. Regular use over long periods can cause changes in the brain and behavior similar to other addictive drugs and can lead to addiction. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in smoked marijuana enters the bloodstream and arrives at the brain almost immediately, causing the user to feel euphoric or \"high\" by activating the brain's reward or pleasure center to release dopamine in the same way that many other drugs do. Research shows that approximately 1 in 11 (9%) people who use marijuana will become dependent on it. The risk increases to 1 in 6 in those who start smoking marijuana as teenagers. Individuals who become addicted to marijuana have difficulty controlling their use, even when marijuana begins to interfere with and cause problems in their lives. Chronic, heavier marijuana users often experience symptoms of cannabis withdrawal such as increased irritability, craving, anxiety and sleep problems that can make it difficult to quit. Withdrawal and continued use despite negative personal, social, legal or medical consequences are hallmarks of addiction and dependence.\nThe acute effects or \"high\" from THC generally last 1 to 3 hours and cause impaired attention and decision-making and slowed reaction time, often accompanied by poorer coordination and balance. Studies have shown that marijuana use interferes with learning, information processing, and a person's ability to form new memories. Because of marijuana's negative effects on attention, memory and learning, individuals who smoke marijuana daily may function at a reduced intellectual level some or all of the time. Chronic, heavy, marijuana users also report problems with memory and learning that last much longer than the acute \"high,\" and which may persist for several weeks after cessation.\nMost of these deficits usually resolve with prolonged abstinence. However, in those who begin and continue to use marijuana regularly during their teenage years, memory and learning problems associated with marijuana use with may persist for years and may not be reversible even after stopping use. A recent longitudinal study showed that individuals who reported regular or heavy marijuana use as teenagers lost as much as eight points in IQ between ages 13 and age 38, even in those who stopped smoking marijuana as adults. The decline in IQ was not seen in individuals who started smoking marijuana as adults. Marijuana is thought to be \"neurotoxic\" to adolescent brain development because THC binds to cannabis (CB1) receptors and artificially disrupts the critical role that these receptors play in regulating the development of the pre-frontal cortex that occurs throughout adolescence into young adulthood. Other studies have shown that adolescent-onset marijuana use increases the risk of psychosis and may also increase the risk of becoming addicted to other drugs.\nThere is also evidence that prenatal marijuana exposure interferes with fetal brain development and is associated with lower birth weight. Approximately one third of the THC smoked by the mother during pregnancy crosses the placenta and affects the development of the endocannabinoid system, which is an important regulator of fetal brain development and the immune system. Prenatal marijuana exposure has been linked to inattention, hyperactivity, memory and learning problems in young children that persist at least into early adolescence. A longitudinal study reported that at age 14, the prenatally exposed youth continued to have learning and behavior problems and significantly lower academic achievement compared to those with no exposure or minimal prenatal exposure.\nTaken together, current research on the health risks associated with marijuana use warrant heightened public awareness, concern and action if we are to reduce the public health impact of current national trends toward further increasing access, availability, and use of marijuana, nationwide. Especially urgent is the need for effective public education, legislation and policies that limit or prevent prenatal exposure and reduce youth access to marijuana.\nFind out more about current research and get accurate, up-to-date scientific information about marijuana and other drugs on the NIH/NIDA's website.\nArticle written by Paula Riggs, MD\nThe Top 5 Ways To Improve Your Heart Health\nBy Deborah Dunham for YouBeauty.comFrom eating dark chocolate to rocking out to music, check out these easy ways to protect your...\nGuide to Vaccines: One-Sheet\nVaccines could save your life.

Much of the fake or illegally produced alcohol contains potentially dangerous chemicals.\n\u201cWe\u2019re very concerned about this trend in the availability of fake alcohol,\u201d says Ron Gainsford, Chief Executive of the Trading Standards Institute. \u201cIt\u2019s not just about false bargains, counterfeit spirits and wine could be lethal.\u201d\nProperly produced and certified alcoholic drinks are made with ethanol \u2013 alcohol that\u2019s safe to drink in moderation. But fake alcoholic drinks can be produced using other cheaper types of alcohol which can have serious adverse effects on your health.\nDrinkaware\u2019s Chief Medical Advisor Professor Paul Wallace explains: \u201cCommonly used substitutes for ethanol include chemicals used in cleaning fluids, nail polish remover and automobile screen wash, as well as methanol and isopropanol which are used in antifreeze and some fuels. These other types of alcohol can produce similar effects to ethanol in terms of making you feel tipsy. But they are also potentially very dangerous.\u201d\nDrinking alcohol containing these chemicals can cause nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, drowsiness and dizziness. It can also lead to kidney or liver problems and even coma. Methanol, a substance which can be used in fake vodka, may cause permanent blindness.\nFind out how alcohol can affect your body here...\u201cDrinking illegally produced alcohol should be avoided at all costs,\u201d says Dr Wallace. \u201cYou don\u2019t know what\u2019s in it in terms of the actual chemicals \u2013 and you don\u2019t know the strength of what you're drinking because it\u2019s not been produced to the standards of commercial alcohol.\u201d\nJeremy Beadles, former Chief Executive of the Wine and Spirits Trade Association, believes most consumers won\u2019t come across fake alcohol and says that it\u2019s important to keep the problem in perspective. \u201cThe vast majority of alcohol in the UK is produced and sold legitimately,\u201d he says. \u201cMost pubs, corner shops, off licenses and other retailers are completely legitimate businesses and wouldn\u2019t get involved with it.\u201d\nHowever, it\u2019s important to know how to spot\u2014and avoid\u2014fake alcohol if you do come across it.\nAccording to the Trading Standards Institute, people need to remember \u2018the 4 Ps\u2019: Place, Price, Packaging and Product.\nPlace: Make sure you buy from a reputable supermarket, off licence or shop.\nPrice: If a deal looks too good to be true, it most probably is.\nPackaging: Look out for:\nPoor quality labelling, including things like spelling mistakes.\nUK duty stamp\u2014spirits in bottles 35cl or larger and 30% ABV or higher have to have a duty stamp, which indicates that tax has either been paid or is due to be paid on the contents of the bottle. They\u2019re usually incorporated into the label or stuck on the glass. If it\u2019s not there, it\u2019s illegal\nProperly sealed caps. If the seal is broken, don\u2019t drink it. Even if it\u2019s not illegal, it could have been tampered with.\nFake bar codes. If you have an app on your mobile that scans bar codes, scan it and see if it\u2019s listed as the correct product.\nProduct: Look out for fake versions of well-known brands and be wary of unusual brand names you haven\u2019t seen before. Vodka, the most commonly counterfeited spirit, shouldn\u2019t have any white particles or sediment in the bottle. If you see this, the vodka could have been diluted with tap water. If any alcohol tastes or smells bad, don't drink it. Particularly look out for the smell of nail varnish.\nIf you think you\u2019ve drunk fake alcohol, the best thing to do is to seek medical advice. You can also report it to your local environmental health officer, call Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline on 03454 04 05 06 or the Customs Hotline on 0800 59 5000.\n(1) HM Revenue and Customs website.

What many do not realize is just how those portable toilets in Springfield get to their locations. Not many are left to stand all year round, and are instead only present for a few days at a time. Most portable toilets in Springfield are rented from a company and put in place during the duration of an event. Here is the definitive guide to portable toilet rentals and how they work best.\nHandicap stalls are now also available. These are relatively the same as the regular porta potties in Springfield, except they are larger in size. This allows for extra space for a wheelchair to make its way inside. They also work well as family restrooms when a parent needs to go in to assist a child. These stalls also include a grab bar that provides a way for people to pull themselves up to standing when they are not able to do so on their own.\nThere is a lot to consider in terms of where the portable toilets in Springfield will be placed at an event. The rental company in Springfield may make some suggestions, but it is ultimately up to the host to determine exactly where the toilets should be located to best meet the needs of all guests in attendance.\nPeople will have to use the restroom more if they are eating and drinking at the event. During a concert or festival, many people are also more likely to take a trip to the bathroom while they are already up looking for a bite to eat. This makes a spot near food and beverages ideal for placing the portable toilets in Springfield. Guests can quickly make their way between the toilet and the food stations when they are placed within a short distance of each other.\nEvents held at night will require lighting near the restrooms. Most porta potties in Springfield do not come with light inside, so access to some will be extremely important. Placing the porta johns near a lighted stage, well-lit food stand, or other location with lighting will make the experience more enjoyable. If this is not possible, then lights should be added to the area to help keep the bathrooms lit during late night hours. Most become extremely dark inside, making it difficult for people to find their way around without some type of lighting.\nMany portable toilets in Springfield do not have their own water system. This means they need to be located near a water hookup. The restroom trailers that are fully accommodated, such as including air conditioning, may need to be hooked up to electricity in order to run. The space needs to have these hookups in order to rent this type of facility. Without it, basic stalls may be all that can be used.\nIf a portable toilet is going to be present for several days, someone is going to have to service the station. This could mean emptying the contents, restocking toilet paper, and filling the dispensers with more soap or sanitizer. A worker at the event could manage this job on their own, or it could be included in the rental contract. This means someone from the rental company in Springfield will do the servicing instead, for a fee. This is often the best option, as it gets the job done well and leaves the event workers to focus on other tasks.\nHosts do not always have to find a local company. They can choose a rental company in Springfield that is farther away from the event site, as long as they are aware that the cost may be higher. Some rental facilities charge per mile for delivering the portable toilets in Springfield to the right location. This could add up to a large cost, but it may be well worth it to receive quality rentals. Some companies will only charge the per-mile fee after a set amount of miles have been driven. This helps save on some costs.\nCosts sometimes increase during peak seasons, particularly during summer months when concerts, fairs, festivals, weddings, and other special events are frequently seen. For this reason, it is best to look into advanced booking. If hosts pre-book their rental during winter, for example, it could save money. It also ensures the portable toilets in Springfield will be present when needed. Those who wait until the last minute to book will not only be paying more, but they may have trouble even finding a rental available at all.",

It's a credit card-sized computer board that was developed in the UK with the aim of promoting the teaching of basic computer science in schools. It\u2019s been adopted by cybergeeks all over the place because of its versatility and low cost. It's a nifty little thing; it can run an operating system which enables the user to do almost anything \u2013 from word processing to creating a remote control for a garage door to building a lightshow!\nRatting: The practice of infecting a computer with an application, allowing a third party to access your desktop, including your webcam, to view the contents of your computer and view you through your webcam.\nRollover: Rollover refers to an interactive button on a webpage. When the user 'rolls' the mouse cursor over the button, it changes in some way - usually visually. When the cursor is moved away from the button, it reverts to its previous state. It's a simple way to make the internet a little more exciting.\nRedirect: URL redirection is a technique used to make a webpage available under more than one URL address. For example, you can arrange for www.example.com to take visitors to www.example.co.uk - or any other web address specified. It's a useful tool for those who own frequently misspelled web addresses, as they can register the misspellings and redirect them - so our fumbling fingers can still get us to where we want to go.\nRAM: Random access memory (RAM) is a type of computer memory - the most common type you'll come across. It allows data to be accessed randomly, unlike other storage media such as CDs, DVDs and magnetic tape. Children of the 80s will remember the painfully slow loading up of computer games on cassette tapes (only for them to crash at the last moment). They were slow because the data had to be read in the right order.",

Homeland security focuses on reducing the risk of terrorism, and minimizing the damage from terrorist attacks and other natural disasters. With the ongoing terrorist threat and a desire to develop new methods of defense and intelligence-gathering, homeland security represents a growing field of academic interest. Many schools are offering homeland security degrees at the bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s level, as well as certificate programs.\nWhat Types of Employment can I Expect?\nWithin the field of homeland security, there are four areas of interest:\nMission Support: Mission Support provides services and support to a number of other disciplines within homeland security, including medicine, human resources, intelligence, fraud detection, budget, civil rights, and science and technology.\nLaw Enforcement: Law Enforcement oversees the security of heads of state and other officials. In addition, Law Enforcement is responsible for overseeing the enforcement of immigration laws, and maintaining the security of transportation systems, infrastructure, and the economy.\nImmigration and Travel Security: Immigration and Travel Security aims to protect transportation systems from threats of attack.\nPrevention and Response: Prevention and Response focuses on protecting the public, the environment, and the economy from any and all hazards.\nAttending homeland security school and successfully completing a variety of homeland security courses can help you decide which area you are most interested in.

Common homeland security courses include: Root Causes of Terrorism, Social and Ethical Issues Terrorism, Public-Private Partnerships in Emergency Preparedness and Homeland Security, Disaster Communication, and Defense in Practice. Other homeland security courses cover complementary disciplines, such as psychology, international relations, emergency management, and politics. Some homeland security schools offer internship or work placement options.\nMost positions in homeland security require a bachelor\u2019s level degree, though higher-level positions will often require a master\u2019s or doctorate degree in a related field or in homeland security.\nAs a graduate from homeland security school, you can expect to earn an average annual salary of $52 000.

They're no longer impressive due to this incredible photo collection of a little girl named Tippi photographed growing up alongside wild animals in Africa. Both of the girl's parents are nature photographers, which explains everything.\nPrior to Tippi being born, her French parents relocated their family to Namibia, Africa. This is where the little girl was able to make friends with some of the world's most feared and admired animals like lions, tigers and cheetahs. She also hung out with elephants and zebras.\nInstead of having their daughter grow up around peer pressure, drama and toxic preschool friends, her parents' chose a completely different route. The best part is that they captured the photos and chose to share their daughter's childhood with the world. How selfless! Check them out below.",

        "raw_content": "West Brookfield crash typifies many motorcycle accidents\nOn behalf of Ellis Law Offices LLP posted in Motorcycle Accidents on Friday, June 26, 2015.\nBoth during the summer and year-round, Worcester drivers need to be aware of everyone and everything on the road in front of them. Particularly during the warmer months, though, there are likely to be many different types of conveyances on local roadways, from bicycles to skateboards to motorcycles. Recently, a serious motorcycle accident resulted in injuries in West Brookfield; the accident typified many motorcycle wrecks which occur throughout the year.\nThe incident took place earlier this month when a motorcycle and a turning SUV collided on Route 9 on a Sunday evening. The SUV was attempting to turn left into a parking lot, and the motorcycle ran into the Ford Explorer's side. The 43-year-old motorcyclist suffered not only scrapes and bruises but also a head injury. The driver of the SUV, as well as her passenger, were taken to a hospital as was the motorcyclist. In addition to the injuries suffered, both vehicles were also heavily damaged.\nIn many motorcycle accidents, a distracted driver does not notice a motorcycle when making a left turn. Looking only for larger vehicles, the driver then turns and may strike a motorcycle coming from the opposite direction. Failure to yield is always a serious violation, but failure to yield in front of a motorcycle can result in catastrophic injuries or death for the motorcyclist.\nVictims of motorcycle accidents caused by a negligent party can seek recovery for damages. Medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering are all common damages in motorcycle collisions. Taking one's case to a motorcycle accident attorney can be the first step in recovering both financially and emotionally from a wreck.\nSource: Telegram.com, \"Ware motorcyclist hurt in West Brookfield crash,\" Kim Ring, June 14, 2015",

        "raw_content": "INICIO // English // Did they kidnap the reconstruction?\nCollapsed building after the September 2017 earthquake \u2013 Photo: Ulises Ruiz Basurto/EFE\nDid they kidnap the reconstruction?\nNewspaper Leader\n10 months after the earthquake, survivors haven't received any help from the local government\nLoosing the home you acquired after a lifetime of effort, due to a natural disaster, is a bitter experience for any person or family; but they are aware that the total or partial reparation of the damages is stuck between political interests and groups insensitive towards the demands of the community, and it all leads to a feeling of helplessness against the government.\nHundreds of families in the Mexican capital are in this exact situation. They are still unsure of how the government is going to help them, as they're still living in tents or crammed into their family and friends' homes, almost 10 months after the September 2017 earthquake.\nThe rebuilding of their homes has turned into a power game between political parties because it involves millions of pesos; the survivors are stuck in the middle, with their demands and their urgency for the reconstruction to speed up.\nThe most recent obstacle for the channeling of the resources to build homes for those who lost their state last September is inside Mexico City's Legislative Assembly. Last month, the head of Mexico City's government submitted a draft to reform the Expenditure Budget in order to reassign almost MXN $700 millions for the Public Trust for the Reconstruction. Nevertheless, it needs the \u201cwill of the parliamentary groups\u201d to call for an extraordinary session.\nThe Assembly's answer is not an optimistic one. The PAN argues that the conditions are not met because of a lack of quorum; many legislators are already invested in other activities and the PRD says that it is on an \u201canalysis path\u201d with the parliamentary groups.\nThe current administration has promised to lead the reconstruction efforts before it ends, but with the lack of agreements, it wouldn't be surprising if they don't even take the first steps.\nIn the midst of the lack of agreements between public officers and legislators, the survivor's voices are barely heard or understood. To be taken into account, they have to block highways, as they have in recent days; that's the only way to be heard or seen. The authorities have practically lost the opportunity to be transparent in a process that implies a direct benefit for the families, and that could have characterized incoming processes. It's time to free the resources.\nEL UNIVERSAL in EnglishMexico PoliticsMexico earthquake7.1Mexico reconstruction",

Published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 560 children at high risk for asthma were examined yearly for 3 years, along with testing of their homes for bacteria and cat, dog, cockroach, mouse and dust mite allergens. Forty-four percent of the children were sensitized to at least one allergen by age 3 and 36% experienced recurrent wheezing. The greater the exposure to cat, cockroach, and mouse allergens, the greater the risk for wheezing was seen. Those children who had no allergies and wheezing were more likely to have the highest first-year exposure to allergens and bacteria.\nChildhood exposure to allergens and germs is generally believed to protect against the development of asthma and allergy, but a new study suggests that this effect happens only with exposure in the first year of life. By age 3, 44 percent of the children were sensitized to at least one allergen, and 36 percent had recurrent wheezing.\nREAD FULL ARTICLE\t From\tThe New York Times\nAllergic Disorders Allergies Asthma/COPD Respiratory Diseases/Disorders\nClose more info about First-Year Allergen Exposure Reduces Asthma, Allergy Risk",

        "title": "Vlad the Impaler - Dracula - (1431-1476) - Biography.name",
        "raw_content": "Written by Ionut Vornicu on 13 July 2013 . Posted in Leaders from Romania\n1431 On November, at Sighisoara, Mures County, it seems that Vlad III, known as Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler) or Vlad Dracul (he was also known as Dracula, especially by foreigners) was born. He was Prince of Wallachia in 1448, 1455-1462 and 1476. His father was Vlad II Dracul and his mother was a Transylvanian noble.\nTepes is known because he temporary obtained Wallachia\u2019s independence from the Ottoman Empire but also because of the way he used to punish the wicked and the enemies. Culprits were impaled, fact that characterized him as a Prince with demonic cruelty methods.\n1436 This year, his father, Vlad II Dracul, became Prince of Wallachia and moved to Royal Court in Targoviste. Vlad Tepes followed his father and lived together with him for 6 years, until 1442.\n1442 By political reasons, he was sent by his father as prisoner to Sultan Murad II\u2019s Court, together with his brother, Radu the Handsome.\n1447 This year Sultan Murad II freed Vlad immediately after his father\u2019s death \u2013 murdered by Vladislav II\u2019s order, a competitor for Wallachia\u2019s throne.\nHis brother, Radu, remained prisoner until 1462. In 1447 Vlad found out that noblemen in Targoviste had tortured and had buried alive his brother Mircea.\n1448 When he was 17 years old, accompanied by Turkish army, Vlad had been crowned as Prince of Wallachia, but two months later he was defeated by Vladislav II, who recovered the throne\n1456 On the 20th of August, Tepes killed Vladislav and was crowned second time. His first important revenge act was done against boyars in Targoviste, who were guilty for his father and brother\u2019s death.\n1459 On Easter Sunday he arrested all noble families that had taken part in princely party. The oldest ones were impaled and the others were obliged to walk one hundred kilometres from the capital to Poenari, where they had to build a fortress on the ruins of an old outpost overlooking Arges River.\nSoon, Vlad the Impaler became famous because of his violent ways of punishment. According to Saxon detractors from Transylvania, he often ordered that condemned people to be skinned, boiled, beheaded, blinded, strangulated, hanged, burnt, roasted, chopped, nailed, buried alive. He also commended for his victims to have their nose, ears, tongue and genital organs cut. But his favourite torture was impalement, where Tepes (Impaler) nickname derives from, that who impales.\nTepes applied this method also against Transylvanian traders who did not respect his commercial laws. Incursions he did against Saxons from Transylvania were also acts of protectionism done to promote commercial activities in Wallachia. In 1459 Tepes also refused to pay anymore tribute to Turks (10.000 gold coins every year).\n1460 It seems that at the beginning of this year, Vlad the Impaler concluded an alliance with Matei Corvin, agreement that Turks wanted to stop. Further, they would try though Pasha Hamza, Bey of Nicopolis, and Sultan\u2019s Deacon, Catavolinos, to catch Vlad by guile, but it was unsuccessful and both were impaled.\n1461-1462 During the winter between these two years, Vlad organized a surprise campaign in the South of Danube. Over 20.000 Turks were killed by Wallachians and the number of victims was written by Vlad himself in a letter for Matei Corvin.\n1462 During spring, Sultan Mohammed II, leading a huge army, about 100-120.000 soldiers (the second biggest army after that which had conquered Constantinople) and 175 warships in order to conquer Chilia, would go to Danube. According to generous estimates, Wallachian Prince\u2019s effectives were not more than 30.000 soldiers. Even if Vlad tried to stop Turks at the Danube, in front of Turnu Fortress, at night, they succeeded to cross the stream and went directly to Targoviste (1462, 4th of July).\nOn these conditions, the Impaler would apply harassment tactics: land\u2019s desolation -especially the way to Targoviste -, wells poisoning, Turkish detachments (gone for food) attack. In this oppressive atmosphere in which Turkish, hungry and scared, advanced through the desolated country, Vlad\u2019s greatest blow happened, the night attack on 16-17th of July 1462, fact that demoralized more Ottoman army and was mentioned within all historical sources related to campaign in 1462. The attack target was the Sultan himself, but he escaped because his tent was confused with that of a vizier. But the psychological effect of the attack was an important one. Many Turks were killed and, according to reports, the Sultan \u201cleft in secret and shameful the camp\u201d; seeing \u201cthe big lost oh his people\u201d he ordered the withdrawal. Close to Targoviste, he was waited by a scene that terrified his armies: a spike forest where a lot of dead Turks were hanged; in front of this landscape the Turks \u201cgot very scared\u201d and the Sultan recognized that \u201cit was impossible to take the country of a man who does such great things\u201d and that \u201cwould deserve more\u201d.\nAccording to Byzantine scholar Chalcocondil, the Sultan crowned Tepes\u2019 brother, Radu the Handsome, as Prince of Targoviste in order to attract by his side all Vlad\u2019s enemies. Pasha of Nicopolis was going to ensure reinforced support to Radu.\nThe period that followed was very unquiet for Wallachia\u2019s history, the two brothers wanted to strengthen their forces in order to eliminate the enemies. Unlike Vlad Tepes who wanted to fight more against Ottoman Empire, Radu the Handsome offered peace and friendship to boyars and in the end they were by his side. On these conditions, left by the majority of noblemen but having a very numerous army (it seems that he obtained a last victory against his opponents on the 8th of September) on October 1462 Vlad crossed to Transylvania in order to meet his ally, Matei Corvin.\nBecause this was neither too decided nor too ready to fight, he decided to change the initial plan recognizing the existing situation of Wallachia and refusing to support Vlad. Moreover, the King had taken that decision also because of a supposed letter of Vlad to the Sultan in which he would have asked forgiveness and, more than this, would have engaged to help him against Magyar armies. As a consequence, on November 1462 Vlad the Impaler, instead of receiving his ally\u2019s help, he was arrested under the charge of treason and imprisoned at Visegrad for 12 years. After Visegrad, he was forced to live almost two years at Buda, under house arrest.\n1475 This year Vlad was freed by the request of Stephen the Great, Moldavia\u2019s Prince, in the context of Turkish pressures which were stronger and stronger over territories in the North of Danube. This year Vlad was recognized as Prince of Wallachia for the third time but this reign was a very short one.\n1476 The Impaler was murdered at the end of December. His body was beheaded and the head was sent to the Sultan who impaled it as a proof of the triumph over Vlad. There was a hypothesis that \u201cDracula\u201d would have been buried at Snagov Monastery, on an island close to Bucharest. Recent examinations showed that Vlad\u2019s \u201ctomb\u201d from the monastery contains only few horse bones dated from the Neolithic and not the real mortal remains of the Prince. In renowned historian Constantine Razachevici\u2019s opinion, Vlad\u2019s tomb would be at Comana Monastery, his foundation.\nThe Impaler versus Dracula. Bram Stoker\u2019s book, \u201cDracula\u201d, is not directly based on Vlad Dracul\u2019s reign, it is a fiction that takes place in Transylvania and England in century XIX. From the success of the novel, Transylvania is linked to fictional character Dracula.\nEnglish writer Bram Stoker could easily search to Royal Library in London some of those Saxon X century engravings that were also within collection of British Museum, where Vlad the Impaler is described as a monster, a vampire that drinks human blood and a great lover of cruelty. He had probably accessed History of Moldavia and Wallachia book of Johann Christian Engel, who describes Vlad as a bloody tyrant fact that probably gave him the idea to consider Wallachia\u2019s Prince as a model for his fictional character, Dracula. Some historians proposed the idea that Stoker would have had a friendship with a Magyar teacher from University in Budapest, Arminius Vambery (Hermann Vamberger) and it is possible that this would have offered him information about Vlad the Impaler. Moreover, the fact that Dr. Abraham Van Helsing mentions his friend Arminius within his novel in 1897 as a source of his knowledge about Vlad III called Dracula, seems to support this hypothesis. It must be remembered that this seems to be the only cause because there is not any connection between Vlad Dracul from history (1431-1476) and the modern literary myth of the vampire that is Bram Stoker\u2019s book. He used folkloric sources, historical mentions and personal experiences in order to create a complex character.[1]\nhttp://www.ro.biography.name/conducatori/94-romania/364-vlad-tepes-1431-1476\nCreated on 13 July 2013 .",

        "raw_content": "Mr Daniel Buckley\nTitanic Survivor from County Cork\nHome Titanic Survivors Mr Daniel Buckley\nMr Daniel Buckley was born in Boherbue, Co Cork, Ireland on 29 September 1890. He was the eldest child of Daniel Buckley (b. 1863), a baker, Abina O'Sullivan (b. 1866). One of seven surviving children from a total of nine, Daniel's known siblings were: Catherine (b. 16 August 1892), Mary Ellen (b. 20 July 1894), Cornelius (b. 1895), Julia (b. 7 December 1898), John (b. 26 May 1900), Hanora (b. 26 August 1901) and Timothy (b. 10 November 1902).\nDaniel and his family appear on the 1901 census as residents of house 47 in Boherbue village, Co Cork. His father suffered from a heart ailment and passed away the following year aged 39 on 22 November 1902. His mother, who was left with a young family, was not remarried and relocated her brood to nearby Kingwilliamstown.\nThe remaining family appear on the 1911 census as residents of house 18 in Kingwilliamstown although Daniel was not present.\nHe boarded the Titanic at Queenstown (ticket number 330920 which cost \u00a37, 15s, 17d) and was headed to an uncle and aunt at Tremont Avenue, New York. He led a group of passengers that consisted of Hannah Riordan, Bridget Bradley, Patrick Denis O'Connell, Patrick O'Connor, Nora O'Leary and Michael Linehan.\nBuckley, who was asleep in a communal third class cabin near the bow when the collision took place, awoke to find seawater ankle deep on the floor.\n\"I heard some terrible noise and I jumped out on the floor, and the first thing I knew my feet were getting wet; the water was just coming in slightly. I told the other fellows to get up, that there was something wrong and, that the water was coming in. They only laughed at me. One of them says: \"Get back into bed. You are not in Ireland now.\"\nHe hurriedly dressed and his three bunkmates eventually got out of bed; with it being a small cabin, Buckley left to give them room to dress themselves whilst he waited outside. Two crewmen passed by shouting \"All up on deck unless you want to get drowned!\" and Buckley immediately hastened to the upper decks and never saw his friends again.\nArriving in communal areas Buckley noticed other passengers wearing lifejackets but he had none so made his way back down to his cabin to retrieve it; he was stopped in his tracks as the water in the area was coming level with the third or fourth step of the staircase.\nAt one point Buckley was gathered with some other steerage men when one attempted to ascend a small flight of stairs into a first class area of the ship; a crewman came along and pushed the man back and snapped the gate shut and locked it. The same steerage passenger angrily chased after the man and broke the lock on the gate; he could not find the offending crewman and said if he had he would have chucked him into the ocean.\nBuckley began to look elsewhere for a lifejacket and soon encountered a first class passenger who had two; the man surrendered one to him and helped him to fasten it on. He made his way to the boat deck where he stated that he assisted in helping lower five lifeboats. He was standing at boat 13 when a crowd of male passengers and crew jumped into the boat; Buckley made a split-second decision to join them and leapt in himself. Two officers came along with a crowd of steerage passengers and ordered the men out, most complied, leaving only he and five other men, firemen and sailors\u2014he broke down and began to cry at the thought of his fate but a compassionate woman in the boat threw her shawl over his head and told him to hold fast. He mistakenly believed the woman to be Mrs Astor. The disguise worked and the boat was lowered to the water. His friend Bridget Bradley was in the same boat and Buckley recalled her being very nervous and excitable, attempting to climb one of the falls when she thought the lifeboat was sinking, only to be subdued by a crewman.\nAs the night wore on those in the lifeboat spied the lights of Carpathia; such a welcome sight caused many to become hysterical and jump around; the crew attempted to control them and have them sit back down but many remained standing.\nDaniel was later called upon to testify at the American Inquiry into the sinking, one of the few third-class passengers to do so.\nIt is not certain if Daniel ever returned to Ireland and he was later joined in America by his sister Catherine. He lived at 284 East 137th Street in Bronx, New York.\nThe Europe Buckley left behind erupted into war and when the USA became involved he voluntarily enlisted into the 69th New York Infantry (later the 165th Regiment) as a Private on 1 June 1917. He served in France from the end of October 1917 and was promoted to 1st Class Private on 1 September 1918. Of the various campaigns he was involved with, one of the most noteworthy was the Rouge Bouquet Campaign; on 7 March 1918 German artillery bombarded American trenches and the 165th Regiment suffered heavy losses; Daniel was one of the few survivors from that regiment. Only a few weeks later, on 21 March 1918 he was \"slightly wounded\".\nDaniel Buckley met his end on 17 October 1918 1 during the Argonne Campaign\u2014shot by a sniper whilst helping to evacuate the wounded at the Meause-Argonne front. Although initially buried in France, his body was later repatriated to Ireland and he was buried in Kingswilliamtown Cemetery. When his friend Nora O'Leary died many years later she was buried there, too.\nHis mother remained in Kingwilliamstown which became known as Ballydesmond after Ireland's partition. She died at the age of 83 on 1 March 1949.\nDeath date as per National Guard Service records; date frequently cited as 15 October 1917.\nWW1 LETTER FROM THE FRONT - BY DANIEL BUCKLEY\nDANIEL BUCKLEY AS US INFANTRYMAN\nFACE TO BAREFACE LIAR!\nTITANIC SURVIVOR CONFRONTS HIS OWN IMPOSTOR.\nWestern People (1912)\n(2019) Daniel Buckley Encyclopedia Titanica (ref: #698, updated 10th February 2019 23:21:13 PM)\nURL : https://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-survivor/daniel-buckley.html\nName: Mr Daniel Buckley\nBorn: Monday 29th September 1890 in Boherbue County Cork Ireland\nLast Residence: in Kingwilliamstown County Cork Ireland\nTicket No. 330920, \u00a37 15s 17d\nDestination: New York City New York United States\nDied: Tuesday 15th October 1918 aged 28 years\nBuried: Kingwilliamstown Cemetery Kingwilliamstown County Cork Ireland",

        "title": "'Star Wars' and the coming holographic cinema revolution",
        "raw_content": "'Star Wars' and the coming holographic cinema revolution\nWhy watch a film when you can be in it?\n\"AR is going to hit us like a big bang,\" says ILMxLab creative director John Gaeta when I ask him whether augmented reality, as that holographic technology is known, has been undervalued by the public and press. \"We're just trying to point out right from the beginning that there will be a form of AR that will be as hi-fidelity as the cinema that you see at some point. I can't say what year that'll be. But at some point, we'll have intimate holo-experiences with performance and things like that.\"\nAnd what better way to usher in that next shift in entertainment consumption than on the back of the Star Wars franchise. Gaeta, along with a handful of others from the immersive entertainment-focused ILMxLab team -- which combines talents from Lucasfilm; Industrial Light and Magic, the visual effects studio behind The Martian and Avengers: Age of Ultron; and audio post-production house Skywalker Sound -- is at the Sundance Film Festival's experimental New Frontier exhibit showing off 'Holo-Cinema.' It's an AR installation that places viewers within the sandy world of Episode VII's Jakku.\nUnlike Microsoft's HoloLens, an AR headset that combines a Windows 10 computer and projection system to create its mixed-reality world, Holo-Cinema relies on a pair of lightweight, sensor-laden active shutter glasses. These glasses, in combination with a motion-capture system used to track positioning, let viewers watch the inhabitants of Jakku -- in this case, the droids BB-8 and C-3PO -- pop out from the projections on surrounding screens and move around in 3D space as if they were physically present. It's an impressive technical feat that, quite literally, has to be seen to be believed.\nHolo-Cinema is merely a preview of the kinds of immersive entertainment Disney-owned Lucasfilm, ILMxLab's parent company, believes will become commonplace in the very near future. In fact, Gaeta and Rob Bredow, the lab's head of new media, say their team's already at work on consumer-facing projects that could accompany the studio's next blockbuster films. So when Episode VIII of Star Wars hits theaters, according to Gaeta, there's a very good chance it'll arrive with a Holo-Cinema offshoot.\n\"What we're experimenting with and planning around is to actually give you more of what could be happening in the convergence of that story,\" says Gaeta of AR storytelling's promise. \"What happened just before. What happens just after. What's happening around the boundaries. ... Without getting too into 'Choose your own adventure' and going into crazy multi-branching, what we're trying to do is show you that, in this moment in time, in this space that you happen to be standing in, there are things still going on around the periphery of the story for you to find. And if you wanna go free, you can do that, too.\"\nILMxLab demos its virtual reality production tool, VScout, at Oculus Connect 2 in Los Angeles.\nThis past summer, at Oculus VR's Connect 2 developer conference in Los Angeles, ILMxLab took the wraps off another immersive production tool, dubbed VScout, that Bredow says was developed in parallel with Holo-Cinema. It's the virtual reality companion to what ILMxLab's doing with AR. And, like Holo-Cinema, it can be used either as a standalone entertainment experience, allowing viewers to explore and follow separate storylines in the world, or as a tool for pre-production.\n\"We've used it for some of the other filmmakers,\" says Bredow of the platform's filmmaking potential. \"Gareth Edwards has leveraged it for some of the work that he's done on Rogue One.\"\n\"It's basically like being inside of a movie,\" says Bredow.\nUsing both VScout and Holo-Cinema, Bredows says Edwards was able to make certain pre-production decisions for the next Star Wars film simply by being able to visualize \"how big doors should be\" on set, for example. The key advantage of which was that the crew didn't actually have to \"build the things at full scale,\" thus sparing the production's budget.\nTo create the scene taking place on Jakku at New Frontier, artists and engineers at ILMxLab used \"real elements\" from The Force Awakens, blending both photographed and computer-generated assets. That environment was then combined with a mocap performance of C-3PO and BB-8. The result is a pre-recorded scene that viewers can participate in.\nActors perform in a motion-capture studio to create a scene from Star Wars.\n\"When we do this for production, we'll have the person acting for C-3PO and the person driving the droid [BB-8] standing just off set, acting in real time. So you'll get the interaction of being immersed in the environment and the interaction with a real person. So it's basically like being inside of a movie,\" says Bredow.\nAs for why ILMxLab chose Sundance to show off the tech, Gaeta says it's really about community outreach and education. He refers to Holo-Cinema as a \"portal\" that filmmakers can use to transport audiences into the worlds they're seeing onscreen. It can also be used, Bredow suggests, as a means of repurposing \"things that might've ended up on the cutting-room floor.\"\nUsing a tablet interface, ILMxLab can control elements of the projected Holo-Cinema scene.\n\"This is our way of simulating augmented reality to come,\" says Gaeta. \"So when glasses come online and are enabled to handle the type of fidelity that we're looking for, we're trying to imagine how we would bring cinematic emotional moments into your spaces, your world. This is just kind of like ... it's a little bit of a format teaser.\"\nImage credits: Lucasfilm (mocap studio)\nIn this article: AR, art, AugmentedReality, av, culture, entertainment, holocinema, holograms, ILMxLab, interview, JohnGaeta, jovani, Lucasfilm, NewFrontier, RobBredow, StarWars, sundance2016, SundanceFilmFestival, uk-feature, video, VirtualReality, VR\nBy Joseph Volpe @jrvolpe",

        "title": "Ph.D. Spotlight: Kyle Murray | Cornell Engineering",
        "raw_content": "When Kyle Murray was in his first year of undergraduate studies at Montana State University in Bozeman he was majoring in electrical engineering, but was uncertain whether or not it was the right fit. Murray decided he needed to step away from school for a little while and take stock of his options. He stepped fairly far away from Bozeman and spent four months rock climbing in South America. When he returned to Bozeman, the rocks had gone to his head and he changed his major to geology.\nAfter graduating from Montana State with a B.S. in Geology, Murray went to Japan where he taught math and science at an international school. \u201cI knew I wanted to go to grad school,\u201d says Murray, \u201cbut I also knew I wanted to do something different and interesting first for a couple of years.\u201d In keeping with Murray\u2019s pattern, that seeming detour led him to his next step. \u201cWhile I was teaching in Japan I found a four-month field experience at the Hawai\u2019i Volcanoes National Park,\u201d explains Murray. \u201cI lived on the crater rim of Kilauea and did research that led directly to my interest in geophysics.\u201d\nFrom Japan (and Hawai\u2019i) Murray went to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, where he earned an M.S. in geophysics. \u201cWhile I was at New Mexico Tech I learned that I really like doing research,\u201d says Murray. \u201cWhen I was trying to decide where to go for a doctorate, I met Professor Lohman at a conference and her research sounded interesting.\u201d So Murray applied to five schools in the West and to Cornell. When it came time to decide, he chose to move to Ithaca and work with Lohman.\nMurray is now in the fourth year of his Ph.D. studies in the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, working toward a doctorate in geological sciences. His focus is on improving methods for interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data processing and time series analysis to study groundwater and tectonics. InSAR is a remote sensing technique that is used to measure surface deformations of the Earth as small as the millimeter-scale over a span of days or even years.\nThe radar waves used to create InSAR images pass through the atmosphere on their way from the satellite to the ground and then from the ground back to the satellite. In these passages through the atmosphere the velocity of the radar waves can be affected by air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and the presence of water vapor. These velocity changes lead to inaccuracies in measurement\u2014they make the data \u201cnoisy.\u201d\nA major focus of Murray\u2019s work is creating methods of getting rid of as much of this noise as possible. Murray\u2019s earlier work resulted in a paper with Lohman showing that the rainy winter of 2017 had reversed some of the drought-accelerated subsidence in the Tulare Basin of Central California. Recently, Murray has shifted his geographic area of study to Oklahoma, where he and Lohman will be using InSAR data to try to quantify the effect of fluids on faults. \u201cInSAR data from Oklahoma is far noisier than InSAR data from California due to atmospheric interactions,\u201d says Murray. \u201cWe want to use our work here as a test case for new methods of getting rid of some of the noise.\u201d\nIf their work is successful, Lohman and Murray will help make clear the effects of fluid on faults in Oklahoma as well as create a tool for researchers around the world to use when they collect and process InSAR data from similarly \u201cnoisy\u201d areas of the Earth.\nMurray hopes to receive his Ph.D. in January of 2020 and continue on to a postdoctoral research position and an eventual tenure-track academic position.",

        "title": "Welcome Guillaume Lambert | Cornell Engineering",
        "raw_content": "Welcome Guillaume Lambert\nWhile Guillaume Lambert was studying for his B.S. in Physics at McGill University in Montreal he had a summer job that gave him his first opportunity to do some actual applied physics work. \u201cI remember thinking \u2018this is so cool\u2014I want to do this.\u2019 I felt like a fish in water.\u201d says Lambert. \u201cOne of my professors (Guillaume Gervais) saw potential in me and encouraged me to apply to grad school in Physics.\u201d Lambert followed his advice and joined the lab of Professor Robert Austin at Princeton.\n\u201cBob Austin is a real innovator with a reputation for pushing boundaries,\u201d says Lambert during a conversation in Cornell\u2019s Clark Hall. \u201cHe is a pioneer of biophysics and one of the first researchers to study DNA as a physical object. He helped me see the importance of simply diving in and doing experiments.\u201d After earning his Ph.D. from Princeton, Lambert spent a formative year as a postdoctoral researcher in the lab of biophysicist Edo Kussell at NYU. He then went to the University of Chicago where he was a Chicago Fellow in Biology. Immediately before joining the faculty at Cornell\u2019s School of Applied and Engineering Physics (AEP), Lambert was a visiting scholar at Harvard\u2019s Wyss Institute.\nLambert grew up on a family-owned dairy farm in Sainte-Agathe, Quebec, Canada. His father had a passion for science that took hold in Lambert, as well. \u201cI liked school,\u201d says Lambert. \u201cI have always been curious and had a drive to discover. I was attracted to physics before I really even knew what physics was.\u201d With each step in his education as a physicist, it became increasingly clear to Lambert that he was not going to be a theoretical physicist. \u201cOf course, you have to study interesting problems,\u201d says Lambert, \u201cbut for me the answers to those problems also have to have a positive impact on people. Rather than probing the unknown to find new things, I prefer to take what is known and create new applications.\u201d\nLambert\u2019s work at Cornell continues his interdisciplinary research combining physics and quantitative biology. Many complex behaviors in bacteria grow out of the genetic variability present from cell to cell. Rather than study what happens to billions of bacteria cells in a test tube when they are exposed to a certain antibiotic, Lambert uses microfluidic devices to look at a few hundred bacteria cells at a time. \u201cInstead of learning a small amount of information about billions of cells,\u201d says Lambert, \u201cI can learn a lot of information about a small number of specific cells.\u201d\nLambert, who is a Gordon Lankton Sesquicentennial Faculty Fellow in AEP, is able to track the lineage of bacteria cells that manage to survive repeated exposure to antibiotics. He can then reconstruct the selective forces that acted on the cells and ask what it was that made that one cell special and allowed it to survive. In this way, he can begin to better understand how antibiotic resistance emerges.\nAnother thread of Lambert\u2019s research is in the nascent field of synthetic biology. Lambert is interested in the development and characterization of synthetic biological regulatory elements to guide the creation of biological circuits in cells and other active living systems. Simply put, synthetic biologists want to use DNA and RNA to create living systems with specific tasks to perform. While at the Wyss Institute, Lambert was part of a collaborative effort that used synthetic biology to develop a rapid and low-cost diagnostic test for the Zika virus. The ultimate goal of my research, says Lambert, would be to learn from beneficial microbes all around us to create biological devices that can help diagnose and treat diseases at the microscopic scale.\nWhen he is not in the lab tracking individual bacteria cells, Lambert likes to run and he likes to travel. In the past few years he and his wife have hiked the Dolomites of Italy and trekked to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Thailand is next on their list, but that will probably have to wait until Lambert has established his lab and is done preparing to teach a class in Biophysical Methods.",

        "raw_content": "D-Day Looms for Digital Readers\nAre e-Books set to dominate as low-cost readers hit the market?\nThree years after the Kindle first became available in South Africa (and two years after the birth of the iPad), consumption of digital content still hasn\u2019t hit its stride locally.\nGiven the exciting functional advances of mobile e-readers, this seems odd. What is the hold-up?\nThe biggest issue has been the cosy familiarity of many readers with print. Many still say they can\u2019t imagine getting the same enjoyment from an electronic device as they do from a book, and find all sorts of reasons \u2013 some not entirely convincing \u2013 why print is better.\nInterestingly, when a die-hard print book lover does see the light, he or she often ends up loving e-readers even more than books.\nAnother factor that is holding back digital reading is price. In December 2009 you could order a Kindle from Amazon for R2 500 \u2013 or R3000 from a retailer like Wantitall. Today, a Kindle ranges from just over R1100 to a little over R2 000.\nWhile this still puts it out of reach of many South Africans, Pick \u2018n\u2019 Pay recently introduced a sub-R1000, bringing this market incrementally closer to broad accessibility.\nMobile computing devices like iPads and high-end tablets are also dismissed for their cost. However, cost competition is strikingly evident in this segment too \u2014 in November a sub-$100 Android tablet hit the market. Less expensive premium tablet prices are also heading south, with the recent launch of Microsoft\u2019s Surface and a number of new BlackBerry devices leading a comeback from RIM.\nBut even at $98, a tablet is too much for the absolutely indigent. Still, the case for tablets in education is solid, and with state funding programmes, equal access to information may no longer be such a far-off dream.\nReading for entertainment has certainly been leading influences in the e-book phenomenon \u2013 comic books, for instance, can drive adoption even among the non-reading public. Discreet reading, among the many advantages provided to the modern reader by e-Readers, especially if Fifty Shades of Grey is your pleasure (no-one needs to know), has helped spur on this digital revolution.\nAlthough there are multiple book genres taking full advantage of being available as e-books, there are still some industries that are slow to mobilise. Academic journals, considered a very dry niche in the industry, are yet to show a massive potential for e-books. The sheer volume of legal and medical content being produced continuously inclines this publishing niche favourably to e-books.\nRight now, the average person in the street is still infatuated with pulp, but it\u2019s only a matter of time before the next generation, obsessed with digital, succeeds the current print-loving, bookmark-losing, corner-folding set.\nSubtle but swift\nIn the end, the dominance of e-books will seem sudden, but like any distributed force its subtle effects are already pervasive.\nStop Killing Your Ideas\n4 Ways to Organise New Ideas and Drive Innovation\nWesley Lynch is the founder and CEO of Realmdigital, a top South African e-business strategy and technology partner, specialising in Web, Social and Mobile platforms.

Wild bird populations are an important indicator of the health of the countryside, and knowing to what extent bird populations are increasing or decreasing is fundamental to bird conservation.\nThe BBS was launched in 1994, and involves thousands of volunteer birdwatchers carrying out standardised annual bird counts on randomly-located 1km sites. Comparing these annual counts enables us to monitor the population changes of over 100 bird species. The survey is designed to be a simple and enjoyable birdwatching exercise. The resulting UK bird population trends, and country and region trends, are published in the annual BBS report.\nThe BBS is run by the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO), and jointly funded by the BTO, the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC, the statutory adviser to Government on UK and international nature conservation, on behalf of Natural Resources Wales, the Council for Nature Conservation and the Countryside, Natural England and Scottish Natural Heritage) and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB).\nIf you are interested in participating, visit the British Trust for Ornithology website for further information.\nEmail: bbs@bto.org\nTweet about us using #_BBS",

Entrepreneurs who considered themselves \"militant Protestants\" and worked carefully to promote the success of the church led colonies such as Virginia to plan for commercial ventures as well as for better religious and scientific education 5.\nSettlers of the New England in northern and Southern colonies were often rough and even sometimes rude, but they were conscious and fully aware of a dogma of 3. Religion and the Founding of the American Republic. America as a Religious Refuge: The Seventeenth Century\n5. Edward J. Power. Religion and the Public Schools in 17th Century America manners and practice it whenever the got time. The reason for this hostile attitude was because all were by no means beneficiaries of university study as many along with those who were not generally capable of discernment came from a source, independent of formal education 4.\nThe myth persisted that the first colonists were more engrossed by religion than education to the extent that their literary taste was limited to theological area only. While, fundamentals of fact infect all myths, if it is applied at all, only to few inhabitants of New England 4. Still even there or elsewhere in the colonies, reading habit among people went far beyond religious discussions, which includes subjects such as the classics, geography, history and law. The image of the colonial mind is vague if it signifies the first Americans as being academically narrow 4.\nThe religious fervor was more evident in the northern colony, while less intense among the inhabitants of the middle and southern colonies. It was nonetheless a fact it is much right to say that theology rarely concerned their thought or shaped the substance of their minds 8.\nThey were more devoted to religion without being zealots; while patience for religious disputes was not in their intellectual platform, since it had an obvious realistic significance. In addition to motive for colonization among people who were settled in these colonies were more likely to be commercial than religious 8.\nThe early culture and civilization of America were originally European, but colonial ancestors took to conserve a legacy that was all time in some danger of being lost. At that time schools were not considered the only places and not even the best places\n4. Lawrence A. Cremin. American Education: The Colonial Experience1607-1783.\n8. Norton, Mary Beth. Sex, Religion, and Society in Early America; or, a 17th-Century Maryland Menage a Trois and its Consequences for any assurance of the eternity of cultural legacies. In the northern & southern American colonies church service and devotion, family activity along with instruction given by general community life, had more educational consequences greater to those developed by isolated schools and infant colleges 8.\nThroughout the 17th century and later in 18th & 19th centuries, schooling was given some responsibility for cultural transmission and till the time schools were defined as agencies of literacy, one reconstructs the educational setting and considered it as right to give utmost attention to schools and colleges. Still northern American colonists were not much willing, as compared to their nineteenth and twentieth-century counterparts, who considered investing schools with complete educational responsibility 5, 8.\nTo them home was the primary school, and each member of the family was a teacher and, somewhat, a student too. Children were taught to work to provide earning for themselves and the family, and to develop religious faith and participate with devotion. They also learned things from an oral tradition that was continued in the family and the community. Other then these teachings if the family had few books, as already having Bible, all were read and treasured. Earlier children in northern America were well instructed without even spending a single day in school 5.\nThe study of Andover, Massachusetts was also done by these new colonies. Greven had portrayed New England settled in American colonies as patriarchs who, by impression of their permanence and the influence of land legacies, held massive influence over even their adult children. However, by the new 18th century and the sway of 5. Edward J. Power. Religion and the Public Schools in 17th Century America\n8. Norton, Mary Beth. Sex, Religion, and Society in Early America; or, a 17th-Century Maryland Menage a Trois and its Consequences patriarchy it started to diminish 5.\nHe gave conclusion that many subdivisions of family farms lessened the land that fathers could have distributed among their children. And as fatherly control over the economic futures of their offspring was declined, these young New Englanders challenged their country and then later left for their settlement in American colonies 5.\nGreven wrote The Protestant Temperament, which was based on what was left in the most ambitious endeavors that related various religious persuasions to modes of childrearing 7. Here he opined that there were three kinds of \"styles of life\" prevailed among Americans between the seventeenth century till mid-nineteenth century 8. Groups like the Puritans, the Baptists, and the Methodists represents the first of these temperaments, called the \"evangelical\" 7. According to Greven, evangelical parents were possessed by human sins and struggled a lot for complete authority over their children by using every way and mean to \"break the will\" of youngsters, consequently effecting the education of children too 7.\nMany children in adulthood mostly on the southern colonies of America were raised in such families that surrendered any remnant of selfhood in a cathartic conversion experience 8. The second group, by Greven dubbed \"moderates\" preferred a less radical approach of shaping the wills of their children by devout, religious and moral examples and thus education of such children were comparatively done in a better manner 7.\nModern Education at end of 17th Century\nModern education by the end of seventeenth century that carried on to the 18th century was due to the combination of three independent motives: religious, intellectual\n5. Edward J. Power. Religion and the Public Schools in 17th Century America\n7. Treckel, Paula A. In To Comfort the Heart: Women in Seventeenth-Century America.\nA and utilitarian. This was however was more practiced on the north colonies of America. The educational reformation gave the religious reason for studying nature and things. Thus, according to them God has created the world and the best way to comprehend the working of the divine law was to study His creation. This religious belief was included in the schooling for a better understanding in children on religious concepts 9.\nFor them nature was a complementary source to the exposure of the Bible for the accomplishment of the same goal. Thus, the idea of 'propagatio fidei per scientias' was the basis of the pansophic schemes of Comenius as well as to his followers. Comeniu was not only the leader of educational reformers but also a Bishop of the Moravian Church 9.\nAll pioneers of education in the seventeenth century believed Christians and declared their purpose in reforming schools was actually the desire to justify the revelation of the Bible by means of scientific research 9.\nThese ideas were closely linked with the missionary dedication to spread Christianity among the inhabitants of the newly made schools in American colonies. Also, in all the schemes of the seventeenth century these two reasons of the propagation of Christianity among non-Christians and of the justification of faith by science were closely connected 9.\nIn regard to this, the Hon. Robert Boyle 1 can be considered as a representative of his time since his continuous concern was both with the work of missionary in America as well as with the introduction of the experimental study of nature, which is clearly evident in all his correspondence and schemes 9.\n9. Adamson, J.W Pioneers of Modern Education in the Seventeenth Century\nHis donation of a fund for the purpose of establishing of Boyle Lectures for the defence of Christianity against nonbelievers by a scientific explanation of the world was a practical example that resulted in many publications later in the eighteenth century 9.\nThe second motive was of an earlier origin. The Platonic Academies started the movement at the end of sixteenth century in Italy. This was established to discover the secrets of nature 9.\nFrom the beginning only this movement was undenominational as well as international and had a pantheistic tendency. This resulted in an open conflict with the Church of Rome in the burning of Giordano Bruno in the year 1600 9. Unavoidably, later it led to dissociation from the exposed religion and to an entirely rational-deistic philosophy. Nonetheless, the religious motive was not totally absent in the seventeenth century,\u2026 [END OF PREVIEW]\nHow America Came to Be a Multinational Society Term Paper \u2026\nAmerica as a Multinational Society\nAmerica is not a multinational society, but rather a multiethnic society.

Pre-order the album from here and receive both \u2018I Miss You\u2019 and \u2018All I See Is Music\u2019 as instant gratifications tracks. In more news, the hip-hop heavyweights have announced they will be taking their new album on the road for their 'I Love Songs Tour'.\nFans of the group will be familiar with their frequent political commentary, but amongst an increasingly turbulent society, Thundamentals have decided to focus their album on what's been lost amongst the chaos: Love. As a result, I Love Songs is an intensely personal listen, focusing on love in its varying forms, and showing Thundamentals' undeniable writing ability in a more intimate light.\n\"Everyone knows how f**ked we are politically, and Thundamentals have been banging on about it for ten years,\" Tuka says. \"We just wanted to write love songs instead, ones that would actually make people feel calm and connect with people around them.\u201d\nWith the subject matter at hand, it's no surprise that this is Thundamentals' most effortless album, and their quickest to complete. \"I really feel like we made it without a lot of preconceptions. It just feels like the most natural, 'true to us' project that we've ever released,\" Jeswon says.\nThe concept was conceived and executed while the group were touring their 2017 album 'Everyone We Know', written in candid moments of on-road reflection. 'I Love Songs' explores the isolation and broken romances that happen behind the scenes, away from the sold-out crowds and star-studded festivals. It's an album of stark contrast, and brutally honest introspection that yearns for something more.\nIn terms of production, the album reflects the vast array of emotions explored by the band, while pushing further into the sonic territories of electronica, gospel and R&B. There's the silky modern hum of album opener 'All I See Is Music', 'Eyes On Me' transports you to sunnier times with its warm island embrace, and 'Everybody But You' builds slowly into a mesmerizing sing-a-long at its conclusion. Mostly self-produced alongside acclaimed Sydney multi-instrumentalist Carl Dimataga (Khalid) and featuring guest appearances from Australian upstarts Eves Karydas and Adrian Eagle. 'I Love Songs' is a contemporary and adventurous approach, while still retaining Thundamentals' traditional roots in rap.\n2018 marks a 'Decade of the Thundakat', and with 10 years under their belts Thundamentals are now moving with more momentum than ever. You can catch the trio as they embark on their album tour in November with tickets on sale now from Thundamental's official website.\nBoyzone \u2013 Thank You & Goodnight Tour 2019",

The authority to issue these national security letters (NSLs) is comparable to the authority to issue administrative subpoenas. The USA PATRIOT Act (P.L. 107-56) expanded the authority under the original four NSL statutes and created a fifth. Thereafter, the authority was reported to have been widely used. Then, a report by the Department of Justice\u2019s Inspector General (IG) found that in its use of expanded USA PATRIOT Act authority the FBI had \u201cused NSLs in violation of applicable NSL statutes, Attorney General Guidelines, and internal FBI policies,\u201d although it concluded that no criminal laws had been broken. A year later, a second IG report confirmed the findings of the first, and noted the corrective measures taken in response. A third IG report, critical of the FBI\u2019s use of exigent letters and informal NSL alternatives, noted that the practice had been stopped and related problems addressed.\nThe USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act (P.L. 109-177, and its companion, P.L. 109-178) amended the five NSL statutes to expressly provide for judicial review of both the NSLs and the confidentiality requirements that attend them. The sections were made explicitly subject to judicial enforcement and to sanctions for failure to comply with an NSL request or to breach NSL confidentiality requirements. Prospects of its continued use dimmed, however, after two lower federal courts held that the absolute confidentiality requirements and the limitations on judicial review rendered one of the NSL statutes constitutionally suspect.\nThe President\u2019s Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technologies recommended several NSL statutory adjustments designed to eliminate differences between NSLs and court orders under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (\u201c\u00a7215 orders\u201d), including requiring pre-issuance judicial approval of NSLs. Instead in the USA FREEDOM Act, P.L. 114-23 (H.R. 2048), Congress opted to adjust the NSL judicial review provisions governing the nondisclosure requirements that may accompany NSLs. It also precludes the use of NSL authority for bulk collection of communications or financial records. Finally, it adjusts existing reporting requirements to permit recipients to publicly disclose the extent to which they have been compelled to comply with NSLs.\nThis is an abridged version of CRS Report RL33320, National Security Letters in Foreign Intelligence Investigations: Legal Background, without the footnotes, appendixes, and most of the citations to authority found in the longer report.\nNSL Amendments in the 109th Congress\nInspector General's Reports\nNSLs in Court\nRecommendations of the President's Review Group\nComparison of NSL Attributes\nTable 1. Profile of the Current NSL Statutes\nFive federal statutes authorize intelligence officials to request certain business record information in connection with national security investigations. The authority to issue these national security letters (NSLs) is comparable to the authority to issue administrative subpoenas. The USA PATRIOT Act (P.L. 107-56) expanded the authority under the original four NSL statutes and created a fifth. Thereafter, the authority was reported to have been widely used. Then, a report by the Department of Justice's Inspector General (IG) found that in its use of expanded USA PATRIOT Act authority the FBI had \"used NSLs in violation of applicable NSL statutes, Attorney General Guidelines, and internal FBI policies,\" although it concluded that no criminal laws had been broken.

It also precludes the use of NSL authority for bulk collection of communications or financial records. Finally, it adjusts existing reporting requirements to permit recipients to publicly disclose the extent to which they have been compelled to comply with NSLs.\nNational security letter (NSL) authority began with dissatisfaction with the exception to the privacy provisions of the Right to Financial Privacy Act (RFPA). Congress initially acted, without a great deal of analysis on the record, to be sure the exception was not too broadly construed. But the exception was just that, an exception. It was neither an affirmative grant of authority to request information nor a command to financial institutions to provide information when asked. It removed the restrictions on the release of customer information imposed on financial institutions by the Right to Financial Privacy Act, but it left them free to decline to comply when asked to do so.\n[I]n certain significant instances, financial institutions [had] declined to grant the FBI access to financial records in response to requests under [S]ection 1114(a). The FBI informed the Committee that the problem occurs particularly in States which have State constitutional privacy protection provisions or State banking privacy laws. In those States, financial institutions decline to grant the FBI access because State law prohibits them from granting such access and the RFPA, since it permits but does not mandate such access, does not override State law. In such a situation, the concerned financial institutions which might otherwise desire to grant the FBI access to a customer's record will not do so, because State law does not allow such cooperation, and cooperation might expose them to liability to the customer whose records the FBI sought access.\nCongress responded with passage of the first NSL statute as an amendment to the Right to Financial Privacy Act, affirmatively giving the FBI access to financial institution records in certain foreign intelligence cases. At the same time in the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, it afforded the FBI comparable access to the telephone company and other communications service provider customer information. Together the two NSL provisions afforded the FBI access to communications and financial business records under limited circumstances\u2014customer and customer transaction information held by telephone carriers and banks pertaining to a foreign power or its agents relevant to a foreign counterintelligence investigation.\nBoth the communications provider section and the Right to Financial Privacy Act section contained nondisclosure provisions and limitations on further dissemination except pursuant of guidelines promulgated by the Attorney General. Neither had an express enforcement mechanism nor identified penalties for failure to comply with either the NSL or the nondisclosure instruction.\nIn the mid-1990s, Congress added two more NSL provisions\u2014one permits NSL use in connection with the investigation of government employee leaks of classified information under the National Security Act; and the other grants the FBI access to credit agency records pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, under much the same conditions as apply to the records of financial institutions. The FBI asked for the Fair Credit Reporting Act amendment as a threshold mechanism to enable it to make more effective use of its bank record access authority:\nFBI's right of access under the Right of Financial Privacy Act cannot be effectively used, however, until the FBI discovers which financial institutions are being utilized by the subject of a counterintelligence investigation. Consumer reports maintained by credit bureaus are a ready source of such information, but, although such report[s] are readily available to the private sector, they are not available to FBI counterintelligence investigators....\nFBI has made a specific showing ... that the effort to identify financial institutions in order to make use of FBI authority under the Right to Financial Privacy Act can not only be time-consuming and resource-intensive, but can also require the use of investigative techniques\u2014such as physical and electronic surveillance, review of mail covers, and canvassing of all banks in an area\u2014that would appear to be more intrusive than the review of credit reports. H.Rept. 104-427, at 36 (1996).\nThe National Security Act NSL provision authorized access to credit and financial institution records of federal employees with security clearances who were required to give their consent as a condition for clearance. Passed in the wake of the Ames espionage case, it is limited to investigations of classified information leaks. As noted at the time,\nThe Committee believes [S]ection 801 will serve as a deterrent to espionage for financial gain without burdening investigative agencies with unproductive recordkeeping or subjecting employees to new reporting requirements.... The Committee recognizes that consumer credit records have been notoriously inaccurate, and expects that information obtained pursuant to this [S]ection alone will not be the basis of an action or decision adverse to the interest of the employee involved.\nBoth the Fair Credit Reporting Act section and the National Security Act section contain dissemination restrictions as well as safe harbor (immunity) and nondisclosure provisions. Neither has an explicit penalty for improper disclosure of the request, but the Fair Credit Reporting Act section expressly authorizes judicial enforcement.\nThe USA PATRIOT Act amended three of the four existing NSL statutes and added a fifth. In each of the three NSL statutes available exclusively to the FBI\u2014the Electronic Communications Privacy Act section, the Right to Financial Privacy Act section, and the Fair Credit Reporting Act section (\u00a7505 of the USA PATRIOT Act)\nexpanded FBI issuing authority beyond FBI headquarter officials to include the heads of the FBI field offices (i.e., Special Agents in Charge [SACs]);\neliminated the requirement that the record information sought pertain to a foreign power or the agent of a foreign power;\nrequired instead that the NSL request be relevant to an investigation to protect against international terrorism or foreign spying; and\nadded the caveat that no such investigation of an American can be predicated exclusively on First Amendment-protected activities.\nThe amendments allowed NSL authority to be employed more quickly (without the delays associated with prior approval from FBI headquarters) and more widely (without requiring that the information pertain to a foreign power or its agents).\nSubsection 358(g) of the USA PATRIOT Act amended the Fair Credit Reporting Act to add a fifth and final NSL section, and the provision had one particularly noteworthy feature: it was available not merely to the FBI but to any government agency investigating or analyzing international terrorism:\nNotwithstanding section 1681b of this title or any other provision of this subchapter, a consumer reporting agency shall furnish a consumer report of a consumer and all other information in a consumer's file to a government agency authorized to conduct investigations of, or intelligence or counterintelligence activities or analysis related to, international terrorism when presented with a written certification by such government agency that such information is necessary for the agency's conduct or such investigation, activity or analysis.\nAlthough the subsection's legislative history treats it as a matter of first impression, Congress's obvious intent was to provide other agencies with the national security letter authority comparable to that enjoyed by the FBI under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The new section had a nondisclosure and a safe harbor subsection, but no express means of judicial enforcement or penalties for improper disclosure of a request under the section.\nBoth USA PATRIOT Act reauthorization statutes\u2014P.L. 109-177 (H.R. 3199) and P.L. 109-178 (S. 2271)\u2014amended the NSL statutes. They provided for judicial enforcement of the letter requests and for judicial review of both the requests and accompanying nondisclosure requirements. They established specific penalties for failure to comply or to observe the nondisclosure requirements. They made it clear that the nondisclosure requirements do not preclude a recipient from consulting an attorney. They provided a mechanism to lift the nondisclosure requirement. Finally, they expanded congressional oversight and called for an Inspector General's audit of use of the authority.\nThe Department of Justice Inspector General reports, one released in March of 2007, the second in March of 2008, and the third in January of 2010, were less than totally favorable. The first report noted that FBI use of NSLs had increased dramatically, expanding from 8,500 requests in 2000 to 47,000 in 2005, IG Report I at 120. During the three years under review, the percentage of NSLs used to investigate Americans (\"U.S. persons\") increased from 39% in 2003 to 53% in 2005. A substantial majority of the requests involved records relating to telephone or e-mail communications. The report is somewhat critical of the FBI's initial performance:\n[W]e found that the FBI used NSLs in violation of applicable NSL statutes, Attorney General Guidelines, and internal FBI policies. In addition, we found that the FBI circumvented the requirements of the ECPA NSL statute when it issued at least 739 \"exigent letters\" to obtain telephone toll billing records and subscriber information from three telephone companies without first issuing NSLs.\nThe second IG Report reviewed the FBI's use of national security letter authority during calendar year 2006 and the corrective measures taken following the issuance of the IG's first report. The second report concluded that the FBI's use of national security letters in 2006 continued the upward trend previously identified; the percentage of NSL requests generated from investigations of U.S. persons increased from 39% of all NSL requests in 2003 to 57% in 2006; the FBI and DOJ are committed to correcting the problems identified in IG Report I and have made significant progress; and it is too early to say whether the corrective measures will resolve the problems previously identified.\nThe third IG Report examined the FBI's use of exigent letters and other informal means of acquiring communication service provider's customer records in lieu of relying on NSL authority during the period from 2003 to 2007. The IG's Office discovered that \"the FBI's use of exigent letters became so casual, routine, and unsupervised that employees of all three communications service providers sometimes generated exigent letters for FBI personnel to sign and return to them.\"\nPrior to amendment, two lower federal court cases had indicated that the NSLs and practices surrounding their use were contrary to the requirements of the First Amendment. On appeal, one was dismissed as moot and the other sent back for reconsideration in light of the amendments. Following remand and amendment of the NSL statutes, the District Court for the Southern District of New York again concluded that the amended NSL secrecy requirements violated both First Amendment free speech and separation of powers principles.\nThe Court of Appeals was similarly disposed, but concluded that the government could invoke the secrecy and judicial review authority of the 18 U.S.C. 2709 and 18 U.S.C. 3511 in a limited but constitutionally permissible manner. It stated that\nIf the Government uses the suggested reciprocal notice procedure as a means of initiating judicial review, there appears to be no impediment to the Government's including notice of a recipient's opportunity to contest the nondisclosure requirement in an NSL. If such notice is given, time limits on the nondisclosure requirement pending judicial review, as reflected in Freedman, would have to be applied to make the review procedure constitutional. We would deem it to be within our judicial authority to conform subsection 2709(c) to First Amendment requirements, by limiting the duration of the nondisclosure requirement, absent a ruling favorable to the Government upon judicial review, to the 10-day period in which the NSL recipient decides whether to contest the nondisclosure requirement, the 30-day period in which the Government considers whether to seek judicial review, and a further period of 60 days in which a court must adjudicate the merits, unless special circumstances warrant additional time. If the NSL recipient declines timely to precipitate Government-initiated judicial review, the nondisclosure requirement would continue, subject to the recipient's existing opportunities for annual challenges to the nondisclosure requirement provided by subsection 3511(b). If such an annual challenge is made, the standards and burden of proof that we have specified for an initial challenge would apply, although the Government would not be obliged to initiate judicial review.\nGiven the possibility of constitutional application, the court saw no reason to invalidate Sections 2709(c) and 3511(b) in toto. The exclusive presumptions of Section 3511 cannot survive, the court declared, but the First Amendment finds no offense in the remainder of the two sections except, the court observed, \"to the extent that they fail to provide for Government-initiated judicial review. The Government can respond to this partial invalidation ruling by using the suggested reciprocal notice procedure.\"\nOn remand under the procedure suggested by the Court of Appeals, the government submitted the declaration of the senior FBI official concerning the continued need for secrecy concerning the NSL. Following an ex parte, in camera hearing, the district court concluded the government had met its burden, but granted the plaintiff's motion for an unclassified, redacted summary of the FBI declaration.\nThe possibility of a conflicting view has arisen in the Ninth Circuit. A federal district court there agreed with the Second Circuit that the NSL confidentiality and judicial review provisions were constitutionally suspect. Yet it could not agree with the Second Circuit that NSL authority might be used if the confidentiality and judicial review provisions were implemented to satisfy constitutional demands. The statutory language was too clear and the congressional intent too apparent for the court to feel it could move in the opposite direction. It declared:\nThe statutory provisions at issue\u2014as written, adopted and amended by Congress in the face of a constitutional challenge\u2014are not susceptible to narrowing conforming constructions to save their constitutionality ... [I]n amending and reenacting the statute as it did, Congress was concerned with giving the government the broadest powers possible to issue NSL nondisclosure orders and preclude searching judicial review of the same ... [T]he sorts of multiple inferences required to save the provisions at issue are not only contrary to evidence of Congressional intent, but also contrary to the statutory language and structure of the statutory provisions actually enacted by Congress.\nThe district court also concluded that, if the confidentiality and judicial review provisions relating to Section 2709 could not survive; neither could the remainder of the section. The court, therefore, barred the government from using Section2709's NSL authority and from enforcing related NSL confidentiality provisions. It stayed the order pending appeal.\nIn the wake of leaks relating to the National Security Agency's (NSA's) purported bulk meta-data collection program, the President established a Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technology. The Group released its report and recommendations on December 12, 2013. Several of its recommendations addressed NSLs. NSL procedures, it said, should more closely resemble those of Section 215 FISA court orders. Thus, it proposed that (1) the courts approve all NSLs except in emergency circumstances; (2) Section 215 orders be used only in international terrorism and international espionage investigations; (3) the NSL statutes be amended to track Section 215 minimization requirements; (4) both NSLs and Section 215 orders should be subject to greater oversight and public reporting requirements.\nCongress did not adopt the recommendations of the President's Review Group, but the USA FREEDOM Act addresses the judicially perceived NSL shortcomings in other ways. It eliminates the prospect of Section 215-like bulk metadata collection under NSL authority. It revises the procedures for the issuance of NSL nondisclosure provisions and for judicial review of their issuance. Finally, it augments existing reporting requirements for greater transparency.\nEach of the NSL statutes now includes a requirement that the NSL demand be limited to specifically identified information rather than insisting on delivery of record information for all of a recipient's customers.\nThe USA FREEDOM Act handles the judicial review of nondisclosure orders with complementary amendments to the NSL statutes and to Section 3511. Nondisclosure orders under the amended NSL statutes are available only if the issuance officials notify recipients of their right to judicial review and certify that disclosure may result in a danger to national security; in interference with a criminal, counterterrorism, or counterintelligence investigation; in interference with diplomatic relations; or in endangerment of an individual's physical safety.\nA nondisclosure order notwithstanding, a recipient may disclose to those necessary for execution of the order, to an attorney for related legal advice, and to anyone else approved by the issuance agency. The exception is conditioned upon the recipient's notification of the issuance agency and advising those he tells of the nondisclosure requirements binding on both of them.\nThe USA FREEDOM Act amends Section 3511 so that the issuing agency must petition for judicial review upon request of the recipient. The petition must include a statement of specific facts evidencing the risks that warrant a nondisclosure order\u2014a risk of a danger to national security, of interference with diplomatic relations or with a particular investigation, or of physical injury. The court must issue the order if it finds reason to believe disclosure \"during the applicable time period\" would bring with it such risks.\nThe reference to \"the applicable time period\" is the only indication of the permissible tenure of a nondisclosure order. The phrase seems to contemplate that the petition will propose a time limit on any nondisclosure order or at least the court will impose one. The legislative history suggests that was the practice immediately prior to enactment of the USA FREEDOM Act. Of course, the government was operating at the time under the pre-USA FREEDOM Act version of Section 3511, which afforded the opportunity for annual (and only annual) judicial review, and in the shadow of the Second Circuit's John Doe, Inc. decision.\nThe USA FREEDOM Act's final NSL adjustment occurs in the area of public disclosures. It directs the Director of National Intelligence to post on his website annually the number of NSLs issued and the number of requests covered by those NSLs during the previous year. It also permits a recipient of a FISA order or an NSL to publicly report, in one of four statutorily defined alternatives, the total number of such FISA orders and NSLs and the total number of customers covered by such orders or requests.\nThe following table summarizes the differences among the five NSL sections: Section 1114(a)(5) of the Right to Financial Privacy Act (12 U.S.C. 3414); Sections 626 and 627 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. 1681u, 1691v); Section 2709 of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. 2709); and Section 802 of the National Security Act (50 U.S.C. 3162).\nNSL Statute\n15 U.S.C. 1681u\n15 U.S.C. 1681v\nconsumer credit agencies\nfinancial institutions, consumer credit agencies, travel agencies\nsenior FBI officials and SACs\nsupervisory official of an agency investigating, conducting intelligence activities relating to or analyzing int'l terrorism\nsenior officials no lower than Ass't Secretary or Ass't Director of agency w/ employees w/ access to classified material\nInformation covered\nidentified customer's name, address, length of service, and billing info\nidentified customer financial records\nidentified consumer's name, address, former address, place and former place of employment\nall information relating to an identified consumer\nall financial information relating to consenting, identified employee\nrelevant to an investigation to protect against int'l terrorism or clandestine intelligence activities\nsought for foreign counterintelligence purposes to protect against int'l terrorism or clandestine intelligence activities\nsought for an investigation to protect against int'l terrorism or clandestine intelligence activities\nnecessary for the agency's investigation, activities, or analysis of int'l terrorism\nnecessary to conduct a law enforcement investigation, counterintelligence inquiry or security determination\nonly per Att'y Gen. guidelines\nw/i FBI, to secure approval for intell. investigation, to military investigators when inform. relates to military member\nno statutory provision\nonly to agency of employee under investigation, DOJ for law enforcement or intell. purposes, or fed. agency when clearly relevant to mission\nImmunity/fees\nno provisions\nfees; immunity for good faith compliance with a NSL\nimmunity for good faith compliance with a NSL\nreimbursement; immunity for good faith compliance with a NSL\nSource: Congressional Research Service, based on statutes cited in the table.",

        "raw_content": "Home Love & Relationship Should I Tell Him I Miss Him?\nShould I Tell Him I Miss Him?\nMissing someone isn\u2019t easy. And wanting to tell them that you miss them is even more difficult. Especially when you are not so sure it would be such a good idea or not. Sometimes it is simple. Sometimes you know that telling someone that you miss him is a great idea. You would have no problem calling or texting them right now and letting them know how you feel. Unfortunately, there are people that you do not feel that comfortable just blurting it out to. We get that those situations are super tough. They can really toy with your head and even your emotions. But before you get yourself all riled up about it, let us help you decide the right course of action. We can help you decide whether or not you should tell him that you miss him. We know a good situation from a bad one. Don\u2019t believe us? Take a look for yourself and keep reading below.\nA Good Situation\nWe all know that couples, even if they are not committed, will have no problems telling one another that they have been missing them. This is totally normal. You should not be scared to text or call him and tell him that you miss him if the two of you are in a mutually good situation. What would a mutually good situation consist of? We are glad you asked! A good situation is one where both of you are totally into one another. You talk on a consistent, if not almost always, daily basis and you have a bond growing between you. This does not have to mean that you two are dating or even exclusive. It just means that you both feel the same way about each other. Has he told you sappy things before? Or made advances for a more serious relationship? Does he let you know that he likes you or he misses you? In this case, sending him an \u2018I miss you text\u2019 will do no harm, because he probably also misses you. This is a great way even to strengthen your bond, because it will let him know how you feel about him. And it might even open up a doorway where he will tell it to you back!\nA Bad Situation:\nYes, sadly there are times when it is not okay to send a text or call him to tell him that you miss him. Like if the feelings between you are not mutual. Meaning you already know that he just isn\u2019t that into you. If he has made it clear in the past that he does not have the same feelings, telling him that you miss him might just end up making you look a little desperate. We know that probably isn\u2019t the most pleasant thing to read, because we know that you are missing him. However, it is the truth. You want to save yourself the embarrassment. Do you two not talk often? Has he told you he doesn\u2019t like you in that way? These are signs that it would be a terrible idea to let him know that you miss him.\nThere are other bad situations where it would be a no-go on the I miss you type of feelings. Like what? Well, if the two of you had been dating and things had ended badly. That would not make for a proper setup for saying these types of things to him. If you two were totally unhappy in your relationship or if he was a bad guy to you, don\u2019t do it. We especially suggest not sending an I miss you text or giving the person a call if he was abusive. We know that sometimes you might miss someone, even if they were a horrid person to you, but hold back. We know you are strong enough to not do it. Don\u2019t subject yourself to his awful behavior ever again. Do not open the doorway for communication or letting him back into your life in this situation. This situation would be the worse one. And no, you should not tell him that you miss him!\nA Neutral Situation:\nWhat\u2019s a neutral situation? It can be classified as a situation where you don\u2019t really know what the heck is going on between you and him. This is a common thing when two people are first starting to get to know one another. You might have been talking/hanging out for awhile, but you are not sure where you stand relationship-wise at this point. It can be utterly confusing. We get that. Which is why we added this situation into our list. So what are you supposed to do if you are not sure how he feels? We say\u2026. Go for it! Nothing is good or bad yet, so go ahead and let him know how you feel. The worst case scenario is that he does not feel the same way yet. But he might appreciate you telling him that. You never know, he might also be missing you, but wasn\u2019t sure how you felt. So by telling him, you are letting him know your feelings and opening a gateway into this type of discussion!\nPrevious articleWhat Does It Mean When A Guy Eats Off Your Plate?\nNext articleHe Ignored Your Text \u2013 Should You Text Him Again?",

It\u2019s also interesting to note that the Afar Depression, where Dallol is located, is a volcanically active region, not far from a volcano of the same name. So the heat must seem to come from every direction here: from the sun above, and bubbling up from the ground below.\nVisit Dallol with our full Danakil Depression Tour or Short Danakil Depression Tour\nDallol is also one of the most remote places on Earth. There are no roads; the only regular transport service is provided by camel caravans which travel to the area to collect salt.\nDallol is one of the world's most spectacular landscape: a vast area of geysers, hills of sulphur and uplifted thick salt deposits affected by intense fumarolic activity, probably caused by an active volcanic system beneath several kilometers of evaporation salt deposits.\nThis scorching hot town in the Afar Depression of Ethiopia holds the record for having the highest average annual temperature ever recorded. From 1960 to 1966, Dallol averaged 94 degrees Fahrenheit (daytime temperatures regularly rose to over 100 degrees). This number is an annual average, meaning that Dallol's temperature dips only moderately throughout the year. There is almost never a break from the heat at any time of the year.\nDallol is said to be the hottest place on the planet, with average annual temperatures well above 30 deg C.\nNearby is the Dallol volcano, which last erupted in 1926.",

        "raw_content": "STEAM ENGINES IN FRANCE WORLD WAR I -1918\nMill under construction near Mees, France, April 1918. Using manpower to put the smoke stack base on the boiler.\nMill after completion August, 1918.\n106 S. Elm Street, Newkirk, Oklahoma 74647\nWhen General Pershing reached France in the early summer of 1917 with the vanguard of the American Army, one of the first requests was for lumber. First, enormous quantities of heavy plank and timbers were needed to repair and build docks for the army and supplies to land on. Railway cross-ties for sidings were needed; also, ordinary building lumber for building barracks, warehouses, and the like, was a necessity.\nAt that time the 'U-Boats' were sinking about sixty ships a week, and our people were having all they could do to keep the Allied Armies supplied with food and ammunition; so, no ships were available for carrying lumber. However, it was learned that timber was available in France. In fact, Canadian Engineers were at that time cutting timber for the British Army in the French woods; so, the decision was made to recruit American Engineer troops for lumber production.\nThe first regiment formed, was called the Tenth Engineers. It consisted of six companies of 250 men each. The men were selected with the idea of taking only men who had experience in logging and saw-mill work. Of course a few banker's sons managed to slip in; but, most of the enlisted personnel were qualified for the job. The officers were nearly all 'Ninety Day Wonders' and utterly useless, but people of that kind are always with us. The Tenth took basic training for about two months at Camp American University near Washington, D.C., and was sent to France in September, 1917.\nAs soon as the Tenth Engineers were out of the barracks, another regiment, the Twentieth Engineers, started forming six companies at a time, taking basic training for about six weeks before going overseas. This continued until the Twentieth consisted of 30 companies. Later, the two regiments merged, making 36 companies altogether.\nMany people might be surprised at the amount of lumber that was cut. The production for the month of October, 1918, was over fifty-million board feet of sawn lumber. In addition, a considerable amount of round timber was cut.\nNearly all of the mills were of two sizes. The larger units were rated to cut twenty-thousand board feet in ten hours. The smaller size was rated at ten-thousand. At different times, small portable mills obtained in France, were used. At the time the Armistice was signed, twenty of the twenty-thousand foot capacity mills were in operation; most of them running two 10-hour shifts per day. These mills were erected with the mill floors about 10 feet above ground, with the engine, line-shafts, belts and saw-dust conveyors below the floor. The smaller 10 thousand capacity rigs were set up 'ground hog' style.\nIn 1917 the German 'U- Boats' were sinking about sixty ships a week, and our people were having a time keeping the Allied Armies in food and ammunition. No ships were available to carry lumber, but timber was accessable in France. The decision was made to recruit American engineer troops for lumber production...\nOf course Steam Engines turned the saws. The standard power plant for the large mills was a Houston, Stanwood and Gamble engine, 14 inch by 18 inch, rated to indicate 90 H.P. with 90 lbs. steam at the throttle. These were plain throttling governor engines with balanced valves. They were sturdy old workhorses; and, as for engine trouble, there wasn't any. The boiler plant consisted of: Two 48 inch dia. by 18 feet long, fire-box type b filers, nominal rating 50 H.P. each. Some of the mills, instead of two 50 H.P., had one 60 H.P. and one 40 H.P. boilers of the same type. These were all well built with 'butt-strap' double riveted seams, good for 150 lbs. working pressure. However, as the war continued, machinery became harder to get; and, at least two, 20 thousand capacity mills were obtained from the Canadian Lumber-Jacks. These were similar to ours and the steam engines were built by Robey & Co., Lincoln, England. They were twin-cylinder, each cylinder 12 x 16 inches. The boilers were the horizontal return tubular type, 5 feet in diameter, 18 feet long. The furnace was a steel box, lined with fire-brick. The Robey Company called this outfit the 'Colonial Boiler.' They steamed well when fired by hand with sawdust; and, in one set-up, one of them was built on a 'Dutch Oven' and fired by a sawdust conveyor.\nThe Robey engines were fine examples of the engine builder's art. Finely finished 'engine turned' connecting rods made for good appearance, and finely balanced valves with eccentrics, made adjustable so as to use the expansion of the steam, made for efficiency. The eccentrics on the Robeys were made to work like the Russell reversing gear. They could not be reversed or the cut-off point changed by a lever while running; but, with the engine stopped, the cut-off points could be changed by loosening a couple of bolts, and sliding the outer part outward for a longer cut-off, or inward for a shorter. In case the bolts came loose, the eccentric could slip only to the central position. This would put the engine in the same position as with a reverse lever in the center notch. If it was desired to reverse the engine, it was necessary to remove the bolts. Then the eccentric could be slipped across the shaft, and the bolts put in other holes in the hub. Most steam engine men are familiar with the Russell and the old Rumely gears, and can understand how the slotted eccentric works.\nThe Robey engines were equipped with PICKERING governors, built in England under the Pickering Patent. They were exactly like the governors so well known in this country.\nIn describing these English engines, the writer does not want anybody to think that he is making them out to be better than those that came from the United States. The HOUSTON, STANWOOD & GAMBLE, the CHANDLER & TAYLOR, NAGLE and FARQUAR might not have been so finely finished as their English Cousins, but they kept the saws turning in most of the mills for two ten-hour shifts per day. Engine breakdowns were just about unheard of. Spare parts, such as cylinders and crankshafts, were shipped with many of the American engines, but it is doubtful if any were ever needed.\nMost of the larger mills had steam-driven electric generators for electric lights. These consisted of a TROY vertical, 7' x 9' engine, directly-connected to a General Electric D.C. generator with a capacity of 110-125 volts, 80 Amps. D.C. current. These TROY engines had 'automatic' governors and balanced valves. The crankcase was enclosed, and an oil pump circulated oil to all the bearings. It flowed from there through a filter in the base of the engine to be recirculated. These were sweet-running little outfits. 'Automatic' engines are often seen at the steam engine shows; but most people think they merely have a different kind of governor. Actually, the 'Automatic' operates in a radically different way from the throttling governor; and, in most cases, save one-third of the steam that the plain engine will use. On the 'Automatic,' the throttle is wide open so that there is full boiler pressure in the steam-chest, while the governor and valve gear are designed to control the speed by changing the TIMING of the closing of the admission; while, at the same time, holding the opening of the admission and 'lead' at the beginning of the stroke. The Skinner Engine Company, Erie, Pennsylvania, took over the Troy Steam Engine Company, and was offering TROY Steam Engines for sale as late as 1961.\nMost all of the larger mills used sawdust for boiler fuel; the slabs being shipped to the troops for firewood, the boilers that came from the States were all of the fire-box type with open bottoms. These were set on 'dutch-oven' furnaces about six feet high. A chain conveyor carried the dust from the saws above the oven so that it fed by gravity into the fire. All the fireman had to do, was keep the fuel feed regulated and keep water in the boilers. The firing system worked well; usually plenty of steam; but, when the saws were all running all of the sawdust was not needed and part of it had to be hauled away. The Robey boilers that came from England were of the H-R-T type with steel fire-box settings. They also worked well on a Dutch Oven.\nA large number of steam locomotives of various kinds and sizes were used for hauling logs and lumber. Most of the larger mills were located on the standard gauge French Railroads; but, some were not, and had to haul their output to the standard gauge for shipment.\nThe description of steam engines and other equipment is mostly first hand. The writer belonged to Company A, 1st Battalion, 20th Engineers. We landed in France, November, 1917; and, after some delay caused by quarantine, got located on a tract of pine timber in the Dept. of Landes in Southwestern France. The word 'Landes' in French means 'waste land.' In the old days it had been grown up in a kind of bushy shrub and was just about useless, except as a hide-out for the losers of a revolution. It was flat and sandy with small lakes and marshes; and the sand kept blowing and covering the strips of fertile soil along the small creeks.\nThis had changed when we were there. They told us that Napoleon originated the idea of planting it in pine timber, and a strip of country about twenty miles wide extending from a little south of Bordeaux almost to the Spanish border, was a nearly unbroken forest of pine.\nMost of the trees had been tapped for sap to make turpentine and other products; but, only trees that showed signs of dying, and some older tracts had been cut. The French Government would not have allowed young, healthy timber to be cut, if it had not been so badly needed to carry on the war. A considerable number of people made a living operating the turpentine stills and small saw-mills; so, they would not allow large tracts to be cut, as that would have displaced whole neighborhoods.\nThe tract to which Company A was assigned consisted of about 1700 acres near the village of Mees, Landes. Company C was given a similar tract near Candale, Landes. The timber was very much the same; but Company C was close enough that the mill could be located on the standard gauge railroad; so, their production could be loaded directly into the standard gauge cars; while the Company A mill was located two miles farther back, which made it necessary for us to build a narrow gauge line to haul our lumber for shipment.\nWe set up camp in late December, 1917, but equipment was slow in arriving. We carried timber and built a barn for seventy head of horsers. The horses arrived, but no harness. The officers got out and bought a couple of little portable band sawmills and we got started cutting lumber. These mills were driven by English portable steam engines; one a Clayton and Shuttleworth and one Davey and Paxman. These engines were old but they ran well. Finally, about the middle of February, part of the machinery and blueprints arrived for an American mill, rated to cut twenty thousand feet per ten hours. The writer was given six men and assigned to the job of building. It was to be 90 feet long, 22 feet wide; built on posts six feet high, ten inches square, with street sill and over-lays of 10' x 10' timbers, which would make the mill floor nearly eight feet above ground. We went to work with a will, glad to be getting started. We bedded logs in the ground; cut perfect seats with foot-adzes for the footings of our posts, 36 of them, and were bragging about how level the tops were when some of the officers woke up and came out on the job. Bad news! The other parts of the mill had been lostmaybe sunk by submarines, or shipped to the wrong place; but, could not be found. So we were going to get a mill from the Canadian Lumber-Jacks.\nYou can well imagine the unprintable words that flew; but there was nothing to do except unroll the new blueprint and get started. The Canadian mill was to be 90 feet long, the same as the foundation we had built, but it was to be 26 feet wide insteadof 22 feet; and the posts were to be spaced at different intervals; so every pair of mud sills had to be moved, excepting those at the ends. As luck would have it, our mud sills were 26 feet long; so, by moving out to the end with our posts, they could be used. Of course our adze work all had to be done over; and, by this time, the logs were thoroughly covered with sand. Our adzes were all dull, and had to be ground with foot power. Electric motors didn't grow on bushes 59 years ago in Gascony. (The Department of Landes was part of the old province, called Gascony, before the French Revolution.)\nWe reset our mud-sills; cut the posts so the tops were level; got started with street sills and over-lay jointsa little farther along than we had been before; and now, you are not going to believe this, but it is true! The 'Brass' decided to move the mill to another location, about three-quarters of a mile farther back in the woods. I believe I said earlier: Most of our working force had a low opinion of the 'Brass.'\nWe had cussed when we had to tear our work down before; but this time we wept. However, since there was nothing else to do, we salvaged all the material we could, hauled it to the new location, and went to work again.\nThis time it seemed our luck had changed. The Canadian Mill arrived about the time we were ready for it. The saw-rig had been designed by a Canadian officer, and built in England, but was very much the same as we had been accustomed to. The edger was of English design, but was not much different from the American edgers. It carried three saws and would handle lumber five inches thick. The live-roll case was gear-driven with ten steel rolls made from ten inch pipe, about thirty inches apart, making it 24 feet long. There were 30 eight inch steel idle rolls. This would extend nearly 100 feet if they were placed three feet apart. The cut-off saw swung from below, carried a thirty inch diameter saw that would cut a timber 8 x 10 inches. The power plant was the Twin Cylinder, 12 x 16' Robey Engine with Colonial Boiler that I described earlier.\nBy this time the operation had organized itself. All the commissioned officers but one had found other jobs. 1st Lieutenant Duncan P. Shaw from North Carolina knew something about saw-mills so he stayed on as Company Commander. Sergeant 1st Class J. W. (Bill) Puckett, an experienced construction man, was in charge of all camp and mill building. The writer, also a Sergeant 1st Class, was foreman in charge of installing the machinery in the mill.\nThe little portable band-mills were in operation cutting railway cross-ties and had rendered valuable service cutting the 8 x 8' timbers and lumber that we were using to build the large mill. Logging was getting started with Sergeant Frank J. Fitzgerald, an experienced logger from Port Angeles, Washington as woods foreman. The logs were being hauled on eight-wheeled wagons at this time, but they were expecting a gasoline-driven, 60 centimeter gauge locomotive to be used to haul logs from the woods.\nCompany A was loaded with skilled men. At least four: A saw-filer, two steam engine operators, and a mill foreman, were transferred and promoted to sergeants in other battalions that came later and were short of men who knew how to produce lumber.\nThe crew working on the mill had expanded by this time to about thirty men, and it was going up fast. Early in April we had the under-frame completed, the head rig set, the live rolls and cut-off saw belted up. Also, we had the haul-up rig working. The engine and boiler were set up and the smokestack was hoisted. The roofing had not arrived, but carpenters were cutting out the timbers for the shed.\nThe smoke stack goes up. There are three men on the boiler.\nThe writer is the man in the middle. We were trying to get the first bolt in the flange. Sergeant Bill Buckett is standing on the corner of the mill building directing the operation.\nQuite naturally, we were anxious to see the saws turn so we got up steam and started the Robey Engine to rolling. The belts all ran straight on the center of the pulleys and all the bearings ran cool.\nThey had shipped four new inserted tooth saws: Two, 52' diameter, and two, 56'. All were 7 gauge at the center and 8 gauge at rim. The 52' had 50 teeth, and the 56' had 54. Both of the 56' saws were made by R. Hoe Co., whose saws are so well known, but one of the 52' saws was made in Canada. While we didn't know anything about the Canadian saw at the time, we found it to be equal to the Hoe in performance. The saws all seemed to be in perfect condition and were marked for 650 Rpm. I selected the 52' Hoe for the first run and, since I had been in charge of lining the track and mandrel, I appointed myself to saw the first log. Now, as everybody who has set up a saw-mill knows, this is a kind of tense moment. My mouth felt a bit dry, but as we brought the speed up to 650, the Hoe saw stood steady and true. I ran the carriage up and back on the track to see how the feed rig was going to work, then loaded a log and cut the first slab. The line was straight and we sawed the log into timber to build the shed. Ora W. Adkins of Columbia, Missouri, who was to be one of the regular sawyers, took the lever and sawed about a dozen logs. Everything ran well. We were especially well pleased with the way the Robey Engine performed. It carried the load so easily and the Pickering governor held the speed so regularly that you would have to have a good speed indicator to have detected any variation.\nThe first slab falls. Erwin is the man at the sawyer's lever. He squints down the line to see if it is true. It is good and the log is sawn without any adjustment of the saw and everybody was happy.\nNearly ten million board-feet of lumber passed over those rollers by the time the Armistice was signed in November.\nReaders familiar with saw mills will notice that the mill is left-hand. The Canadian mills that came from England were all left-hand. You know that the English drive on the left side of the road, so maybe they want their log carriage to be on the left. You know you can always tell an Englishman, but you can't tell him much.\nAfter the trial run, we all got to work as fast as we could to get the mill completed. The carpenters finished the shed and we got the sawdust conveyors built and the edgers set up. In two or three days we had the belts all on and a full crew organized. The first day we cut over 200 logs and tallied thirteen thousand board feet of lumber.\nThe second day we cut nearly 400 logs, and tallied over twenty-two thousand feet of lumber. A crew was then organized for the night-shift and the mill went into operation for 120 hours per week. In a short time production was up to three-hundred-thousand feet per week. This required about 5,000 logs, so the loggers had to get busy. Fitzgerald and his men met the challenge quickly, and supplied the round stuff.\nCompany A had plenty of men who knew how to get out saw-logs; men who could pull a cross-cut and make it look easy. A man from Arkansas, named Davis, was an artist at filing a cross-cut saw. I would be anxious to bet that one of his saws, with a good man at each end, could 'log-off' a chain saw. (Incidentally, I read in a reliable magazine, a few weeks ago, that some students at a Forestry School in Kentucky had beaten a chain-saw with a cross-cut in a 'Log-Sawing' contest. It made me feel good to learn that we had some young men who could do something besides grow hair.)\nWhen it came to getting logs to the mill, our loggers knew their stuff!\nFolks who have never seen loading crews loading logs on the narrow gauge railway cars have missed something. Andy Anderson, born in Sweden, came to Montana as a boy, was the best logger and one of the most likeable men I ever knew. He was what they called a 'top-loader,' A loading crew consisted of five men and a team, or for small logs, one good horse. (When Andy was not busy loading logs, he was a semi-professional wrestler.) About 180 lbs. bone and muscle in 'calked-boots', he was sure-footed as a tomcat, and no cat could catch a mouse quicker than Andy could snap his cant-hook into a log and bed it into place on the load; all this on top of a high load where one misstep would have meant at least a broken leg.\nThis crew could load 600 logs in 10 hours. If I could see Andy and his crew with their rhythm, grace and precision of movement, the best ballet dance that was ever staged could wait.\nAfter the war, Andy returned to Idaho, where he became a successful as a contract logger. He and I used to call each other on the phone at Christmas time and talk about old times, but No More! He passed on to where good loggers go about one year ago. Truly his kind is an endangered species.\nFitzgerald had another top-loading crew with a top-loader named Topel who could load almost as many logs as Andy's crew. These crews supplied the mill for the first month or two, but we made improvements in the mill and increased production; so, since they had plenty of good cant-hook men, two more loading crews were organized.\nThe mill was not cutting about 65,000 feet per day of two 10-hour shifts, and another problem arose. They had eight 4-wheel drive trucks to haul the lumber to the railroad about two miles away. They were having plenty of trouble. As they were designed for carrying ammunition they were needed at the front. This trouble ended when a steam locomotive built in Germany weighing about 7 tons, with four wheels, all drivers, arrived, it was not much for looks, but it could move 20,000 feet of lumber in five cars. We had to shut the saw-mill down for a few days, and take the crew to build a 60 centimeter gauge railroad to the French standard gauge line. The line we built was made with secondhand, 20 lbs. to the yard, steel. It was not a pretty track, but it carried the little train.\nSergeant John C. Henslee, Pineville, Louisiana, and Pfc. William P. Hillery, Akron, Ohio, with the little German locomotive. It wasn't much for looks, but it could move the lumber.\nDuring the first month or more of operation, we had to use acetylene flare lights for the night-shift to work by. Servicing these was a messy job, and there was danger of burning the mill besides. This trouble ended when a fine, steam-driven electric generator arriveda Troy 7 x 9' steam engine, directly connected to a General Electric D.C. generator with an output of 125 volts, 80 amps. When we got this in operation and lights flashed on all over the camp and mill, we were as proud of it as Edison was of the Eighth Street Plant that ushered in the Age of Electricity. When you have passed a long, dark winter with no light excepting tallow candles, happiness consists of being able to turn on a light with the flip of a switch.\nBy this time we had acquirerd enough log cars to enable the log crews to leave enough loaded cars on the track leading into the mill to supply the night shift. The lumber hauling crew got hold of enough cars to take care of the full production from our lumber ramp to the railroad siding where it could be loaded directly onto the standard gauge. Yet this lumber haul continued to be a hard job. Sixteen men, eight for each shift, were required to transfer the lumber, and four men to operate the train, but it seemed to be the only way it could be done.\nAll along we were making improvements in the mill which increased the output. In the month of October, the last full month the mill ran, we cut 1,900,000 feet. Altogether, our little mill produced ten million feet of sawn lumber before closing down in November, immediately after the Armistice.\nAbout the first of September, the writer was supposed to be promoted to a rank that is now called Warrant Officer, but the promotion got tangled up in red tape, and I only got to be 'acting' Warrant Officer. This means I got the job but did not get the pay. A Warrant Officer is supposed to be an expert in some line in which the Army is engaged. The work in which I claimed expertise was the straightening and tensioning, and other work on circular saws. My job was 'trouble shooting' for any of the five mills in the Dax District that had saw trouble or any kind of difficulty which their own men could not handle. The First Battalion had plenty of men who could recondition circular saws, but those that came later, although being composed of intelligent men, skilled in other lines, lacked the special skills needed for lumber production.\nWhen the War ended in November, we all thought we would be packing our knapsacks and catching a boat for Hoboken in a few days, but how wrong we were! There were two million men in France and it had taken a year and a half to get us over there, so of course it was impossible to get back home very much faster. Any one would know it is not good for men to lie around in idleness, so various kinds of work, such as repairing roads and the like, were started, but for us there was something else.\nLate in the summer a tract of pine consisting of about 30,000 acres, situated about 40 miles north of Mees where we were working, was burned. Every tree was killed, the bark charred; but the wood was not damaged. This timber was acquired jointly by the Americans and Canadian lumber regiments at a fraction of the cost of green timber.\nAt that time our High Command thought the War would continue into the next year, and we were all surprised when the Kaiser's Army collapsed in November, leaving the burned timber on our hands.\nThe French, with only a few small mills, would not be able to save much, as it would spoil in the summer, but they agreed to pay the Americans and Canadians the market price for all that we would cut. Our people wanted to be fair with the French and, naturally, everybody hated to see good lumber go to waste when it was needed badly. Since we had been bragging about how fast we could cut lumber, it was: 'Why not get in there and show us?'\nThree mills were to be built, twin rigs in each, making a total of six rigs of the size that we had been operating. Company A, or by this time the designation had been changed to 'First Company,' was to build one called the 'East Mill.' The 'West Mill' was to be built by the Eleventh. I don't recall what Company was to build the 'North Mill.'\nA Captain of Engineers named W. D. Starbird was in charge of the whole operation, and I mean He Was in Charge. During the summer of 1918, as new battalions had been arriving, Captain Starbird, with a detail of about 20 expert millwrights and construction men, had been building mills and starting them in operation for the new outfits that were often short of skilled lumbermen.\nLater I was to become well acquainted with Captain Starbird and I found him to be one of the few officers in the regiment who really knew his job. He had a Master's degree in mechanical engineering and was Chief Installation Engineer for the P. B. Yates Woodworking Machinery Co., at that time the largest builders of woodworking machinery in the world.\nThis was the beginning of the operation called 'The Burned Area,' which most of the units of the Twentieth had a turn at helping clean up.\nFitzgerald, who had been logging foreman when we began work at Mees, and who had now been promoted to Lieutenant, with myself, still 'Acting Warrant Officer,' and Sergeant 1st Class George E. McKay from San Francisco, who had a Master's degree in engineering, were chosen to lead the advance into the black forest. We three were very close friends. This helped, but we wondered just what transgression we were being punished for. We were given an old FWD ammunition truck, ten men, two 16-foot tents, a few tools, a supply of hardtack and bacon, and told to get in there and build a new camp. This we proceeded to do, and as soon as we got tent floors with three foot walls ready more men were sent.\nEAST MILL, Burned Area, near Pontenx Les Forges, Landes, France. This mill was built by First Company, 20th. Engrs. (formerly called Co. A First Battalion.) It began operation about the first of February, 1919, and cut four and one half million feet of lumber by the middle of June. The two other mills cut about the same making 13 million all together for the American mills and the Canadians about the same. This salvaged the burn and completed the work of the 'Lumber Jack' Regiment.\nA few days after we got started building our camp, Capt. Starbird sent a Warrant Officer, or as they were generally called, 'Master Engineer,' to commence building the mill. Master Engineer (I'll not give his name since he didn't turn out well and some of his descendants might read this) called on me for 12 good men. I responded by giving him the worst 12 I had. We needed every man who could drive a nail to work on the camp. I forgot to mention, it started raining the day we arrived in the black woods and continued to rain all winter, so we were much more interested in our camp than in the Master Engineer's mill. (Blank) was a fine construction man and he managed to get work done with the dozen useless guys. He seemed to be a fine fellow, and took it in good humor, but when he called for more men he asked if I couldn't send him some millwrights and carpenters. I responded by giving him the most worthless men I had, but this was as far as this shennanigan worked. He questioned these guys as to who were good men and they told him, so he came up with an order signed by Capt. Starbird calling for certain sergeants and corporals by name so I had to comply.\nMaster Engineer (Blank) knew how to build a mill. He soon had the main erected, and was getting started with the boilers and ovens. Possibly because of the frustrations and discomforts of the situationit rained almost continuouslywe were all black with soot from the charred timber, with plenty of cold water to use for washing and bathing. Altogether you couldn't say we were comfortable. All this was too much for Master Engineer (Blank). He got drunk, shot up the camp with a Springfield rifle, ran off, and they caught up with him in Paris.\nCapt. Starbird chose a corporal named Goulasch to replace him as Superintendent. Starbird never paid any attention to rank or ratings. Another dictator was said to have preached the doctrine: 'The tools to him who can use them.' Starbird seemed to believe in that. Also, the powers in Washington had decreed that all ranks be 'frozen,' and no promotions were possible.\nCpl. Goulasch was a fine millwright and mechanic but proved to be a poor superintendent. He was what is called a 'working foreman.' This means a boss who will do all the work and let his men stand and watch. This is bad, when about 60 men are supposed to be at work.\nBy this time, we had the camp about finished, with mess hall, kitchen and supply room built of lumber, and tent floors enough to accommodate 500 men.\nAll of First Company (formerly called Company A, 1st Battalion) had been moved up from the old camp at Mees. Sergeant 1st Class George E. McKay, who was now logging superintendent, had surveyed and laid out the campsite and was building a 36-inch railway into the woods, getting ready to bring logs.\nWith the work on the mill lagging, Capt. Starbird was in a bind. Capt. Duncan P. Shaw (formerly 1st Lt.) who was in command of First Company, was now in the new camp. Capt. Starbird would hardly allow any of the other officers in the mill, but Capt. Shawbless his heart! He was one of the best friends I ever hadventured to speak to the great Captain, and told him that 'Erwin could build the sawmill.' To make a long story short, I got the joband how big I felt!\nI put Cpl. Goulasch on a special job with four good men helping him, and we got along well and became good friends.\nI have a history of the Twentieth Engineers that devotes a good many pages to describing the 'horrible' conditions in the 'Burned Area.' The writers of this book talk a lot about 'Slave Labor,' men being marched to work in military formation and the like, and call Capt. Star-bird 'the much anathematized Engineer Officer.' I was too busy around the East Mill and camp to know much about what was going on in the other camps, but while we had a few complainers crying about wanting to go home, I could usually get them hushed-up by reminding them that about 200,000 of our men wouldn't be going home at all, and they should feel lucky. On the whole job, I recall only two instances of men refusing to work. I got them both back on the job without raising my voice, making any threats, or even getting mad. Lt. Fitzgerald, who was Camp Commander, never even heard of these incidents unless, perhaps, I happened to mention them and we had a 'little laugh.' When our men would complain about paddling around all day in 'slicker suits' I would say: 'We had to work last winter without these good suits.' I'd also say: 'We are lucky that this is just water and sand. What if it were black, sticky mud?'\nAnyway, we got the East Mill completed, and it was a dandy. Two fine rigs built by McDonough, Eclaire, Wisconsin, set in right and left hand, so that the logs came in between and could be unloaded on the log decks. The whole plan was 80 feet wide by 84 feet long. Each mill was 24 feet wide by 84 feet long, with the boiler room 32 feet wide in between.\nOn the left hand rig, we used the 12' x 16' Twin Cylinder Robey Engine that we had used on our other job. On the right hand side, we had a new 14' x 18' side crank engine, built by Chandler & Taylor, Cincinnati, Ohio. The steam was furnished by the Robey 'Colonial' boiler that we had used at Mees, with two open bottom fire-box type boilers of 50 H.P. each, set on a three-furnace 'Dutch Oven,' fired by sawdust conveyors.\nWe got the mill started late in January, 1919. Everything worked beautifully and I felt about as big as Capt. Starbird. In fact I heard that some of the men, behind my back, were calling me 'Little Starbird.' This pleased me. I had a high opinion of the Captain's ability.\nJust before we got the mill started, the 25th Company, who had been running a mill in the Vosges Mountains, near the front, was sent to help run the operation. I continued as Superintendent. The other mills got started about the same time. As soon as all the mills were in operation, Capt. Starbird took off to his job with the Yates Company. He sent me a fine letter of recommendation on 'Yates' Letterhead,' which I have kept to this day.\nWe got the mill into good production, 20 hours per day, very quickly, cutting European type railroad cross-ties.\nAnother word about the 25th Company, who had been working in the Vosges Mountains near the front, and who had come to help operate the East Mill operation: I would particularly like to mention one of their sawyers and his crew. He was a French Canadian, a sergeant, but, they said, 'He had been made sergeant seven times and 'busted' six times.' His weakness: getting too much cognac and forgetting to come back to camp on Sunday night; but you should have seen him making logs into cross-ties. We had good sawyers, but none who had quite the 'flair' and 'style' of this man. The elegant gentleman who conducts the orchestra on the Lawrence Welk Show reminds me of him.\nThe crew that operates the head-rig in a mill of this type, consists of the sawyer who handles the motion of the carriage with one hand and bosses his crew by hand signals with the other, the 'block-setter' and two 'doggers' ride the carriage, and two cant-hook men roll the logs on the carriage and turn them. The carriage seldom stops except for an instant at the time it reverses. You may have heard old-time sawmillers talk about carriages so fast that you could play pitch on the 'block-setters' coat tail! Well, this French-Canadian was almost that fast and his crew obeyed every crook of his fingers, all with precision and rhythm. If I could have a movie reel of Andy Anderson and his crew loading logs, and this sergeant (I don't remember his name) and his men sawing them, the Rockefeller family wouldn't have money enough to buy it. Oh, I might lend it to be copied.\nSince First Company had been in France longer than any of the others except those of the old 10th Engineers, we were relieved on February 22 (easy to remember that date), 1919, by the 27th Company, and we went back to the old camp at Mees to prepare for the long trail to Hobo-ken. I have never known what units were used in operating the mills, but the History of the Twentieth says: 'The job was finished in June, 1919, and the total cut by the Americans was: Thirteen Million Board Feet.'\nAfter we got back to our camp at Mees, about six miles from Dax, which is a little city of about 15,000 in which the headquarters of the first battalion and Dax District were located, General Pershing came down to visit us.\nOur men had not been in military formation for over a year, and it was some trouble to get them in shape, but we managed to parade and pass in review. The General gave us a fine talk. He told us 'we were a 'gutsy' bunch of guys, and while we had not had to face the enemy in battle, we had endured the back-breaking work, the cold, the heat, rain and mud, to furnish timber when it was needed, and he wanted us to know that our services were appreciated.'\nNone of the units of the Twentieth were ever used in combat, but several of the mills were close enough to the front to be under long range artillery fire, and two men were killed. The greatest loss was suffered by our Sixth Battalion when the British troop ship 'Tuscania' that was carrying them was torpedoed and sunk by a U-boat January 23, 1918. Ninety-one of our men failed to reach the shore. The 100th Aero Squadron was also on board and suffered heavy losses. Altogether about four hundred Americans were lost in this disaster when occurred off the Isle of Islay, near the coast of Scotland.\nThe delay caused the tract of timber intended for the Sixth to be given to the Seventh Battalion, and after the survivors of the Sixth regrouped, they were assigned to a job cutting timber for the British about 30 miles north of our operation at Mees. They built a couple of Canadian mills, like ours, and worked there for several months. During this time we became well-acquainted, and among the many things they told us about the sinking, one thing I especially remember was: 'You may have heard that the Scots are stingy. Never believe it! We were picked up and landed on that little island, hungry and cold, many of us half drowned; and no clothes, excepting those we had on our backs. Those poor people gave us food and clothing that they really needed for themselves. So, 'Never tell us that the Scots are stingy!'\nI was very much disappointed by failing to get the promotion to 'Warrant Officer', but as a sort of consolation prize, several months after I got home in 1919, I received a citation for exceptionally meritorious service signed by 'John J. Pershing.' After all those years I prize this citation higher than I would have the promotion.\nAll in all, if America had always been served as honestly and faithfully as the old Steam Engines and Lumber Jacks served, she wouldn't be SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY BILLION DOLLARS in debt.",

        "raw_content": "The Power Of Routines In Sustaining Creativity\nCreativity is rarely born of chaos, which is why author and artist Sunni Brown has built some consistency into her lifestyle.\n[Photo: Flickr user Sebastiaan ter Burg]\nAustin-based author and artist Sunni Brown makes sense of problems through her dual talents: writing and doodling. She runs consulting firm Sunni Brown Ink, where she helps businesses solve problems using a visual mapping system she calls infodoodling. She\u2019s written two books about unlocking creativity, Gamestorming (2010) and The Doodle Revolution (2015), and has just begun working on a third.\nBut before she helps others unlock their creative potential, she has to channel some inspiration for herself. Here\u2019s how she does it:\nOn Routines: On one hand, I\u2019m a writer. On the other, I\u2019m what I call an infodoodler. So I go between the world of language and the world of visual language. There\u2019s a shared expectation that a writer would write every day in some consistent form. And I don\u2019t do that. I am consistently looking for creative possibilities, but I\u2019m not a drumbeat kind of creative. If I\u2019m not inspired on some level, I don\u2019t sit down and try to bang out some shit. My commitment is to work. And so sometimes I work at 6 p.m. Sometimes I work at 6 a.m. For me, it\u2019s not about a consistent time in my routine. It\u2019s more about a constant commitment to that process, to being creative. A lot of people think that if you sit down for eight hours, that\u2019s what a real workhorse creative does. It\u2019s not efficient. I will say four hours max, and I may take a nap in there. Because really, truly the way that the biological process is, people need to move, they need to breathe, they need to get up and walk around. They need to get off the track and jump onto another track.\nSunni BrownPhoto: Flickr user Sebastiaan ter Burg\nThe Mind-Body Connect: I think that physical movement is extremely beneficial for any kind of work. So I\u2019m a big fan of some kind of physical movement prior to working or to stir the pot\u2013to get past something that might be difficult or to solve a problem. I do yoga, meditation, and I do strength training. But even that, I\u2019m not consistent with. I have two gigantic dogs, and I walk them daily, twice a day. One of them is named Simon\u2013like Simon, Theodore, and Alvin. And then the other one is named Falkor from The NeverEnding Story\u2013he\u2019s a Great Pyrenees, a big, white, shaggy dog. I didn\u2019t even name him Falkor, but ever since I was a kid, I was obsessed with the white dragon in that movie. So when we rescued that animal, it was like a childhood dream come true. I\u2019m almost positive that my dogs are partly responsible for any creative thing I\u2019ve ever done, because they get me outside all the time. Austin is super dog friendly. We take them everywhere: restaurants, a place called the Greenbelt that\u2019s part of the [Colorado] river, we take them to dog parks. I walk them probably four miles a day.\nBrown\u2019s Great Pyrenees is named Falkor after the creature in The NeverEnding Story films.\nThe Weekend Plan: Up until about three months ago, I didn\u2019t know if it was Monday or Saturday. I just recently started putting parameters around that. If you run a business, you\u2019re very consumed by that. So I just learned the great art of structuring your week as a workweek. I have a coach\u2013a creative coach\u2013she and I over time realized that consistency is one of my biggest challenges. What I\u2019ve seen is much less anxiety. For creatives, I think we have more of a tendency to move into anxiety and instability. So I think one of the best-kept secrets for long-term, sustainable creativity is consistent discipline and sustainable, predictable actions. It\u2019s kind of like getting a container for your creativity so that it doesn\u2019t wear you out.\nOne of the best-kept secrets for long-term, sustainable creativity is consistent discipline and sustainable, predictable actions.\nBest Business-Travel Story? My business, when I started it, was doing live visualizations\u2013what I call infodoodling\u2013where you go to an event and you make large-scale murals in real time with someone talking. So I used to do that. I went to Saudi Arabia and did it for Bill Clinton and the King of Saudi Arabia, and it was just mayhem. In Saudi Arabia, the men and women are partitioned. I couldn\u2019t even be in the same part of the room with [Clinton]. I had to wear the hijab and full regalia with my face covered in black robes, and it was culturally shocking on some level. I drew his speech\u2013he was giving a talk, so I was just mapping what he was saying while he was saying it.\nI\u2019m not a drumbeat kind of creative. If I\u2019m not inspired on some level, I don\u2019t sit down and try to bang out some shit.\nWork Philosophy: This is going to sound philosophical, but my inspiration comes from being motivated by my own core belief system. One of my core beliefs is secular humanism. I believe in people, and I believe that people should be treated with kindness and compassion. I\u2019m reading Elizabeth Gilbert\u2019s latest book called Big Magic, and there\u2019s this section in there where she\u2019s like, \u201cDon\u2019t try to \u2018help\u2019 people with your work.\u201d So I wouldn\u2019t say that I help people, but I do like to make contributions. I like to give people things that they can use to make their lives easier, smoother, better, smarter, whatever\u2013and I\u2019m really motivated by that. When I die, and I look back on my life, I always want the creative things that I do align with a core value that I\u2019m really proud of.\nBrown meditates in this all-analog room in her Austin, Texas, home.\nThe Antidote To Facebook: I\u2019m a huge meditator. And there\u2019s a thing called interpersonal neurobiology, and I study a lot of self-awareness techniques. In order to really know why you\u2019re doing something, you have to have a certain level of honesty with yourself. At the end of the day, you could be deluding yourself. So meditation for me has been a really useful tool for discernment and honesty about why I\u2019m doing something. I have a meditation room. It\u2019s totally dedicated to meditation, and I actually have nothing electric in it. I only have analog objects in my meditation room, and that\u2019s a purposeful decision that I\u2019ve made because we\u2019re all so plugged in all the time. I love having a sanctuary where nobody can call me; I\u2019m not going to get on Facebook.\nFun Fact: I got married twice to the same man\u2013two different styles of ceremony, because we have different styles. The first time, we got married in Panama. Then we got married in Texas. The Panama wedding was my dream, and the Texas wedding was his dream. We had a Buddhist wedding: I\u2019m a practicing Buddhist. So we got married by our zen teacher. For me, the intimacy of a small wedding was what I wanted. I wasn\u2019t interested in marriage licenses and legal mumbo jumbo. I\u2019m kind of a philosophical lady, so for me, a marriage is in your heart. It doesn\u2019t have anything to do with the state. It was about 15 of us. We had flowers around our necks, and some of the little Panamanian kids were running around.\nThe second wedding was Texas-style, white wedding, white dress, 200 people, barbecue. It was nerve-wracking to have so many people. But Ted is so good about including family, and he really thought that that needed to be witnessed by a bigger group of people. And I agree. I think it was really smart to do both of them.",

        "raw_content": "Jeff Koons to Design Car for BMW\nThe pop artist has been tapped to create the latest in a long line of \u201cart cars.\u201d Should be wild, judging from recent history.\nLast night, Jeff Koons threw a party in his Manhattan studio to announce his latest flashy adventure in art and commerce: He\u2019ll be designing the next installment in BMW\u2019s long-running \u201cArt Car\u201d series. He\u2019s in good company\u2013Since 1975, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, David Hockney, and Robert Rauschenberg have all designed Art Cars. (That\u2019s Koons pictured above at last night\u2019s event, looking like a stock broker surrounded by ex-wives (his real ex-wife is a Hungarian-born porn star-turned-Italian parliament member). And come to think of it, Koons actually was a stockbroker in his 20\u2019s\u2013that\u2019s how he funded his early works.\nThe details of the design will be announced sometime this year. But if the recent past is any judge, it should be pretty wild\u2013and wildly expensive. The most recent artist to create an art car was Olafur Eliasson, who obliged with this strange thing:\nThough it was supposedly a functioning hydrogen-powered car underneath, what you\u2019re seeing is the outer shell, which was made out of ice. Intended as a comment on global warming and consumerism, it also had to displayed in an enormous freezer, and retouched everytime it was displayed. Irony, we suppose.\nKoons, for his part, has tried his hand at mega-bucks transport design twice before. Two years ago, he christened and designed the Guilty, a yacht owned by art-collector Dakis Joannou (who\u2019s been collecting Koons for decades):\nIt looks like a big, jumbled Lichtenstein painting, but it was actually inspired by dazzle camouflage from World War II. Koons also, until recently, was working on a giant installation for the L.A. County Museum of Art, which would have been a $25 million, life-sized working model of a steam locomotive\u2014suspended from a crane, looking for all the world like it was screaming towards onlookers straight from the sky:\nUnfortunately that plan is dead, killed by LACMA\u2019s withering endowment funds.\nBut for BMW, we can\u2019t wait to see what Koons creates. Hopefully, it\u2019ll involve Michael Jackson\u2019s monkey, Bubbles.",

        "raw_content": "Home [english] Region Europe & Central Asia Spain Spain must abandon anti-aborti\nSpain must abandon anti-abortion Bill\nAt the end of 2013, the Spanish government approved draft legislation severely limiting the right to abortion. It will now be submitted to parliament. FIDH and APDHE urge the Spanish parliament to reject this Bill which presents grave threats to women\u2019s human rights.\nThe Bill, introduced by the Minister of Justice, Alberto Ruiz-Gallardon, was approved at a cabinet meeting on 20 December 2013. It aims to overturn the law passed under Zapatero\u2019s government in 2010. Under legislation in force, women can have an abortion up to 14 weeks\u2019 pregnancy and up to 22 weeks if there is \u201ca major risk for the life or health of mother or foetus\u201d. Under the new Bill, abortion only ceases to be a criminal offence within certain very narrow limits: when the pregnancy is due to rape - on condition that the victim has lodged a complaint (up to 12 weeks), if there is a serious risk for the life or physical or mental health of the mother (up to 22 weeks), or if the foetus shows an abnormality \u201cincompatible with life\u201d - on condition that the abnormality entails a serious risk for the mental health of the mother. In the latter case, abortion is permitted at any time during the pregnancy only if the abnormality was not detected during the first 22 weeks. \u201cIn many countries women have fought for the right to dispose of their own body and to have access to a medical abortion. The new Bill would mean grave regression for the rights of women in Spain, who would lose the capacity to decide whether and when to have a child\u201d, declared Karim Lahidji, FIDH President.\nThe Bill represents a serious threat to women\u2019s health: if women cannot get a legal abortion in their own country, and cannot afford to get one abroad, they often turn to clandestine abortions, thereby putting their life in danger.\nIn attacking the right of a woman to decide how many children to have and at what intervals, the Bill would inevitably have a huge impact on women\u2019s lives and on their place in society. In western societies it is still often women who have the daily rsponsibility for looking after the children. \u201cThe 2010 law allowed women to choose the kind of life they wanted. It is not for the State to interfere in such a choice\u201d, said Noeline Blackwell, FIDH Vice-president.\nThe Bill is due to come before Congress in two months\u2019 time, and is likely to be approved by the members of the party in power, who have the majority.\n[(Addendum\nOn 12 February 2014, the Congress of Deputies defeated, by 183 votes to 151 (and 6 abstentions) a motion submitted by the Socialist Party to withdraw the text immediately. The procedure is still under way with consultations being held prior to submission of the final text to Congress - expected at the beginning of summer - for debate and vote.\nFurthermore, the Popular Party, of which Alberto Ruiz-Gallard\u00f3n, the instigator of the Bill, is a member, has lodged several constitutional appeals against the 2010 law presently in force, which recognises abortion as a right. The Constitutional Court has already declared the appeals admissible and is expected to hand down its decision shortly.)]\nMember organisations - Spain\nASOCIACION PRO DERECHOS HUMANOS DE ESPANA (APDHE)\nSantisima Trinidad Street n\u00b030\nImporting workers, exporting strawberries",

        "raw_content": "\u201cLosing Ground\u201d is one of those great, recently rediscovered gems where phrases like \u201cahead of its time\u201d and \u201cunderappreciated\u201d are routinely tossed around. And why not? It makes a familiar story feel fresh and new by employing techniques that seemed to go mostly unused in mainstream films until relatively recently. For the few who have seen this film, there's another word it routinely brings to mind: unfair. It's quite accurate. If \u201cLosing Ground\u201d had been made by a white male director, there's a very good chance it would have launched a long and promising career. It's hard to imagine any other reason why both the movie and the director remained mostly unknown than the fact that said director Kathleen Collins was both black and female. When \u201cLosing Ground\u201d was released in 1982, it was one of the first films to be directed by a black woman, and it would remain Collins's only full-length feature when she died of breast cancer in 1988 at the age of 46.\nCollins wrote and directed the semiautobiographical \u201cLosing Ground,\u201d which is both a portrait of a rocky marriage and a woman who is awakening to her own potential for pleasure. Much like Collins, Sara (Seret Scott) is a university professor who is adored by her students. Despite her prim exterior, they refer to her as passionate, even if she herself seems anything but when the film begins. A male student hits on her, possibly a female student, and both mention that her husband is lucky to have her.\nNot that Victor (Bill Gunn, director of \u201cGanja & Hess\u201d), a successful painter, seems much aware of his luck. When one of his paintings is bought by a museum, he chooses to celebrate by renting a house in the country, much to Sara's annoyance, who had planned to spend the summer in the city researching estatic experiences. Victor used to be an abstract painter, but once he goes up to the house in the country, he decides to eschew purity and begin painting people, especially the women. One of them, Celia (Maritz Rivera), becomes his model, and soon his lover.\nThis is clearly a familiar pattern to Sara, who is getting nowhere with her research. She is used to seeing other people in ecstasy, and feeling the pain of not being able to experience that for herself. The rush she gets when she writes and researches her way into the knowledge that she's correct is the closest she's gotten. But it's a cold form of ecstasy, and she knows it. In a conversation with her mother Leila (Billie Allen), a passionate actress, she asks her, \u201cHow can someone like you produce a child who thinks so very, very, much?\u201d\nFor the first half of the movie, Sara's intellectual ruminations are the basis for the film's developments. In the second half, she agrees to act in a film one of her students is making, and that is when passion takes center stage. For Sara, acting is another form of research, a chance to experience the pleasure her mother and her husband experience so effortlessly. Small wonder Leila and her husband get along. Unlike other movies where the mother dislikes her daughter's clearly philandering husband, Leila was unaware of Victor's affairs (though she doesn't seem surprised), and enjoys spending time with him. They are kindred spirits.\nThe movie is of course eerily reminiscent of Sara's life, and Duke (Duane Jones), the man who plays her partner, is immediately attracted to her. Collins, however, refuses to let their relationship become a refuge. It is merely a kind of escape, and another commentary on the creative process. They may have chemistry and heartfelt conversations, since Duke is of a more intellectual bent like her, but his mindset is pretty familiar. Duke openly states that he doesn't want to be accountable to anyone. Throughout, they are beholden to the director, who is shouting directions in the background, telling Duke to walk, pick Sara up, and finally, passionately kiss her.\nNevertheless, Sara finds a kind of freedom in acting. In the film, she directly faces down the woman vying for the affections of her partner, angrily glaring and staring her down. The confrontation is heightened for the most dramatic effect, with passionate jazz music playing as the two women square off. In the absurdity which has become her real life marriage, when Victor brings home his new lover Celia, Sara politely shakes her hand and offers her something to drink. Her husband then openly displays his fascination with her while Sara is sitting right next to him. At least on camera there's more dignity, as well as the freedom to fight, even if she knows she'll lose.\nOne of the more fascinating aspects of the film is how \u201cLosing Ground\u201d suggests that the beauty of their natural surroundings in their country retreat encourages Victor's cruelty. Unlike other films, which often depict nature as a place of refuge where people can be more free and honest, \u201cLosing Ground\u201d theorizes that people who are fascinated by nature become more cruel, vulgar, and deceptive. It is not this beautiful setting - which so often seem to encourage passionate affairs - that allows Sara to finally blossom. During a break in filming, she comes home transformed, her hair down, in a red, vibrant shirt and flowing white skirt, leaving her husband Victor stunned, and immediately jealous of Duke. By the time he tries to reach out to her, the damage has been done.\nVictor returns to the city just in time to see the end of the film. Sara's character is now a highly sexualized scorned woman out for revenge on the man who betrayed her. When she shoots Dukes character, Victor flinches, and shame overcomes him as he is finally forced to face the effect of his actions on his wife, with little hope that he can ever be forgiven or forgotten. The ending leaves it somewhat open, but the fate of Collins's own marriage seven years prior leaves little doubt to how this will turn out.\nNeedless to say, portraits of a black middle class with so little stereotyping, especially one directed by a black woman, are still rare. In spite of its very real accomplishments, \u201cLosing Ground\u201d was nearly forgotten. That it wasn't seem to be mostly due to the efforts of Collins's daughter, Nina Collins, who has worked to bring her mother's life and work to a new generation hungry for new types of stories. And in light of recent Oscar nominations that prove many of the great films women make still go somewhat unrecognized, both the work and audience support is still much needed.",

We cannot do these things without the continued generosity of our readers.\nWill you help us by contributing today?\nFor twenty-five years, the term heteronormativity has been a strategic usage. The basic definition isn\u2019t complicated. Heteronormativity is the act of interpreting heterosexual desire as the normal, natural way of human being and society. The term doesn\u2019t signify the normal-ness of heterosexuality. It signifies the disposition to normalize it.\nTherein lies the power of the word. It bears an assumption difficult to dispute. It is this: What na\u00efve people take as a natural state of affairs is, in truth, the result of a social machination. Critical minds see through the veneer of normalcy, complacent minds don\u2019t.\nEver since Eve Kosovsky Sedgwick, Michael Warner (\u201cFear of a Queer Planet\u201d), and other theorists of the late-80s and early-90s unveiled this heteronormative construction, casting their approach as an insight into the real state of things, anti-heteronormativity has enjoyed rare pragmatic value in academic settings. Not to appreciate this now-unveiled human truth is to be backward, blind, repressed. As Sedgwick put it in the first paragraph of Epistemology of the Closet.\nan understanding of virtually any aspect of Western culture must be, not merely incomplete, but damaged in its central substance to the degree that it does not incorporate a critical analysis of modern homo/heterosexual definition.\nIf you don\u2019t assume a critical posture toward homo/hetero distinctions, you suffer from a \u201cdamaged\u201d conception of life. Academics especially are intimidated by such accusations. It puts the enlightened minds on one side, the side that sees homosexuality and heterosexuality dialectically. The proper critical outlook recognizes that heterosexuality is one thing, homosexuality another, and the normalization of the first is precisely that, an \u201c-ization.\u201d It\u2019s not a norm we discover or accommodate. It\u2019s one we erect and enforce, whether we realize it or not.\nThose who still believe that heterosexuality is a natural norm, citing, perhaps, the statistic that only 1.7 percent of adults 18\u009644 identify as gay, 1.8 percent as bisexual, have no effective answer to heteronormativity arguments, not in academic settings and, increasingly, not in media, entertainment, or government, either. At the present time, the pragmatics of academic discourse steer authority toward those who see through human circumstances, who find a social, historical cause for them. Appealing to nature or God or anything transcending human decision-making marks you as less intelligent than your peers, trapped in the past, and insufficiently critical. Defenders of a natural conception of heterosexuality face a prior hurdle before arguing their position\u0097first, they have to prove that they aren\u2019t narrow-minded and unaware. The momentum of academic thought runs headlong toward social explanations for everything. Queer theory may sound like an exotic sub-school of thought, but it is part of an entirely familiar wave of social constructionism that has been inundating academia for decades.\nThis is why anti-heteronormativity caught on so fast and so broadly, and why it has spread to popular culture and primary and secondary education, too. It falls neatly in line with the general de-naturalization of people and society that has dominated academic thought. Others feel confident enough to apply it everywhere, as in this outline of anti-heteronormative practices from Edutopia, George Lucas\u2019s influential schools project. Among its lessons is \u201cDon\u2019t assume all students are heterosexual,\u201d and also,\nFind and utilize resources that challenge a binary view of gender and sexuality diversity. Include books that have two moms or two dads. Include books that have gender-creative children.\nIt is important to note that the paper begins with an example of a three-year-old, which suggests that these lessons should begin in pre-K.\nMany parents object, not because of homophobia, but because they feel it is a distraction from core schoolwork and a form of indoctrination. But while \u201canti-normativitists\u201d have a mountain of academic argument to support them, what do the parents have?\nAs far as I can see, one particular fact is the practical way to begin. It is the poll cited above, which finds that 96.5 adults identify as heterosexual. Only 1-in-30 does not. That rate is significantly less than the rate of adults who suffer from what the National Institute of Mental Health defines as \u201cserious mental illness\u201d (4.1 percent). The rate of children and teenagers who experience the death of a parent is 1-in-9. Why, parents and others might ask, are we devoting so much attention to this feature of humanity and not that? Why focus on such a tiny population?\nThe larger question would be, what does that 96.5 statistic mean in terms of the normativity process? With numbers like those, a teacher can\u2019t help but normalize the majority group. When people in their daily lives encounter one exception to every twenty-nine instances, they naturally incline toward normative judgments.\nThis is why anti-normativity has surrounded itself from the start with claims of insight and acuity. It explains why educators and the larger culture impose anti-normativity regulations, instructions, and assignments repeatedly, and to the point of absurdity. Anti-normativity policing has to be vigorous because it faces such a steep numerical imbalance.\nSo, I say to parents, when you go to school to discuss the anti-heteronormativity ideology piled onto your children, or when you accompany your seventeen-year-olds on campus tours and spot all the flyers posted on alternate sexualities, begin with that question: Why are teachers and administrators spending so much precious time and instruction on something that affects such as small part of the population? Why don\u2019t we see the same focus on music, chess, Latin and French, debate . . . ?\nMark Bauerlein is senior editor of First Things.\nMore on: Sexuality, Culture",

        "raw_content": "Can You Hold Distracted Drivers Accountable?\nAuto accidents and fatalities have been steadily increasing across the U.S. in recent years, and experts say distracted driving is playing a key role in pushing those numbers higher. Now one of the most dangerous epidemics on American roadways, driver distraction claims the lives of roughly 9 people each day, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). What\u2019s more, there are over 1,000 crashes each day involving a distracted driver.\nBecause driver distraction has become such a horrific problem, and because research has shown that it can substantially increase crash risks, states across the country have taken steps to pass laws that prohibit certain forms of distraction. Often these laws focus on texting and cell phone use, which can increase crash risks by as much as 23 times.\nEven when a state does not enforce texting or cell phone bans behind the wheel, or doesn\u2019t create laws prohibiting other common forms of driver distraction \u2013 such as eating or drinking, personal grooming, conversations with passengers, or adjusting music and electronic devices \u2013 driving distracted is a form of negligence.\nDrivers who choose distractions over their duty to safely operate a vehicle can be held accountable for their negligence, and liable for the damage victims suffer as a result, including their pain and suffering, medical expenses and future medical needs, and lost income, among others. Holding a driver accountable for negligence is a matter that can be effectively handled by proven accident attorneys like those at Fleming | Nolen | Jez, L.L.P.\nOver the years, our car accident attorneys have fought for distracted driving victims throughout Houston and the U.S. by building clear and convincing personal injury claims establishing the following essential elements:\nA duty existed \u2013 Any driver who gets behind the wheel of a motor vehicle has an inherent legal obligation to drive safely and take reasonable measures to do so.\nA duty was breached \u2013 Choosing a distraction, whether it be an act prohibited by law (i.e. texting) or not is NOT a reasonable measure that allows for the safe operation of a vehicle. Because it increases crash risks and places others in danger, driving distracted is a breach of duty.\nCausation \u2013 Proving causation is critical to a successful personal injury claim. Victims, with the help of their attorneys, must show that distraction more likely than not led to the crash and resulting injuries.\nDamages \u2013 Victims must have suffered damages in order to have a valid cause for a claim. These can include economic and non-economic damages.\nProving these elements and taking a full account of the damages suffered by victims is critical to securement of the compensation victims need and deserve. By working with our legal team, victims can receive the guidance they need to navigate the claim process, as well as the representation required when dealing with insurance providers who want to limit victim payouts as severely as they can.\nIf you would like more information about holding a distracted driver accountable for you accident and injuries, do not hesitate to call a proven car accident lawyer from Fleming | Nolen | Jez, L.L.P. at (713) 621-7944 for a FREE consultation.

        "raw_content": "Home Furnishings: Investing Essentials\nFind out what you need to know about investing in the home furnishings industry.\nHome furnishings retail is an important business. Source: Restoration Hardware.\nThe housing industry plays a major role in driving the U.S. economy. Homebuilders provide new homes for homeowners, while building materials companies prepare the essential components of those new homes before they're built. An entire subsector of the finance industry deals with loans for home construction and mortgages for home purchases. And after homebuyers close on their purchases and move in, they typically need home furnishings, such as furniture, electronics, appliances, household gadgets, and other accessories in order to complete their house.\nA host of home furnishings companies seek to meet the demand for the goods that help you make your house a home. Let's take a closer look at the home furnishings industry and its opportunities for investors.\nWhat is the home furnishings industry?\nThe home furnishings industry most typically refers to companies that specialize in furniture and decorative accessories. From a broader perspective, department stores often have a wide range of furniture to complement their offerings of appliances and electronics, and several big-box electronics retailers have added appliances to cater to new homebuyers. But even though many homebuyers see television home-theater systems, refrigerators, and washer/dryer sets as essential purchases, those areas are treated as separate industry groups. That leaves home furnishings companies to focus on bedding, dining room tables and chairs, living room sets, and accessories ranging from lamps to gourmet coffee makers as their staples.\nDifferent companies focus on various segments of the home furnishings industry. Companies like Bed Bath & Beyond and Williams-Sonoma offer one-stop shopping for a large selection of household items, although their furniture selections are often somewhat limited. By contrast, specialists like Ethan Allen Interiors focus on producing furniture sets throughout the home. On the bedding side, Tempur Sealy and Select Comfort make mattresses and related bedroom furniture sets, along with pillows and other accessories.\nImage source: Tempur Sealy.\nHow big is the home furnishings industry?\nHome furnishings have a larger impact on the U.S. economy than you might expect. Nearly 450,000 employees in the U.S. work in the home furnishings industry, according to the latest figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and almost half of them hold jobs as retail salespeople. In addition, the home furnishings industry employs managers to oversee salespeople as well as workers to stock shelves and transport goods from manufacturers to retail stores.\nAs you'd expect, the size of the home furnishings industry has risen and fallen with the prospects of the broader housing market. In the mid-2000s, furniture and home furnishings store revenue reached peak levels above $110 billion, according to figures from the U.S. Census Bureau. But the end of the housing boom led to a dramatic contraction in overall industry sales, and home furnishings revenue only climbed back above the $100 billion mark in 2013.\nFind more statistics at Statista.\nHow does the home furnishings industry work?\nLike most retail businesses, the home furnishings industry involves manufacturers that make the products consumers want, as well as intermediaries to get those products into the hands of retail stores, and retailers that make the final sales to customers. Most of the major companies in the home furnishings sector are retail establishments, so they rely on homeowners and other consumer buyers to drive sales. Furniture manufacturers, on the other hand, have to cater to their direct retail customers in order to fulfill their function as suppliers, while also keeping in mind that they ultimately serve the consumers who buy their products.\nTwo things that distinguish parts of the home furnishings industry from other retail businesses, though, are the high ticket prices of furniture and other items as well as their large physical size. The logistical difficulties involved with those items and the financial challenge consumers face when considering purchases make the home furnishings industry a particularly competitive environment in many respects.\nSource: Williams-Sonoma.\nWhat drives the home furnishings industry?\nThe most important driver of home furnishings sales is the housing market. When people are moving in and out of new homes, they often take the opportunity to buy new home furnishings or upgrade their existing furniture and accessories, driving sales higher. During times of economic hardship, however, more people stay put in their existing homes, and they don't have the disposable income to finance major purchases of furniture and other high-ticket items.\nThe rise of Internet retail has also had a major impact on home furnishings. For smaller household goods like kitchen appliances, online retailers have posed a substantial competitive threat, undercutting home furnishings specialists and forcing them to establish their own e-commerce presence in order to counter attempts to take away their market share. For furniture and other bulky items, physical stores have more of an advantage against online retailers, but innovative retailers continue to look for ways to make even sales of larger items more efficient and logistically feasible. That could threaten the high margins some manufacturers currently enjoy on those items.\nThe home furnishings industry is inexorably linked to the level of housing activity in the market. Investors need to consider the current state of the housing cycle before investing in the sector, especially after periods of strong performance in housing, or else they risk taking a hit in the next cyclical downturn for the industry.\nDan Caplinger has no position in any stocks mentioned.

        "raw_content": "Portsmouth solar company powers Rochester schools\nBy Marisa Novello news@fosters.com\nROCHESTER \u2014 SunRaise Investments has helped the Rochester schools lead the way to sustainability in education with solar energy projects at several local schools.\nSunRaise, a Portsmouth-based company founded by University of New Hampshire graduates Bobby Lambert and Pat Jackson in 2014, is a developer, financier, owner and operator of commercial solar energy projects across the country.\nIn the fall of 2015, the Rochester School Department partnered with SunRaise for an 86-kilowatt solar energy project installation on the roof of its East Rochester Elementary School, as the school was in the midst of updating the building. A year later, four additional solar projects were installed on the rooftops of Spaulding High School, Richard W. Creteau Technical Center, McClelland Elementary School and Rochester Middle School.\nBobby Lambert, SunRaise co-founder and vice president of finance, said the department is benefiting from a set energy rate that began lower than retail market cost with an annual escalation of 2 percent through its power purchase agreement and 20-year contract.\n\u201cWe finance the system and own it, with no money down, and then sell them the power generated at a discounted rate,\u201d Lambert said.\nHe and SunRaise Vice President of Project Management Matt Doubleday said Rochester is a good example of what can be done for a school district. Doubleday said because schools are public entities that focus on budgets, this allows them to budget concisely and project future costs.\nSunRaise estimates the Rochester School Department will save up to $500,000 over the life of its agreement. Lambert and Doubleday said the many panels, at a typical size of 4 feet by 8 feet, were tiled upon the roofs of the schools to generate power instantaneously. The schools use energy generated by the solar projects throughout the daytime first, and any unused energy generated is banked for another day. While at night the schools use grid energy, they said.\nAccording to Doubleday and Lambert, the solar arrays are expected to generate approximately 30 percent of the school\u2019s electricity use, and is saving the equivalent of nearly 600,000 pounds of coal burned or 63,000 gallons of oil consumed each year. The U.S. Energy Information Administration reports the average residential customer in New Hampshire consumes 7,452 kilowatt-hours annually. Doubleday said Rochester\u2019s five solar projects are expected to generate roughly 800,000 kilowatt hours annually, enough electricity to power 106 New Hampshire homes each year.\n\u201cWhen producing power, it\u2019s not just about the amount of power you\u2019re producing, it\u2019s about the value of power produced,\u201d Lambert said, adding New Hampshire and New England have the most expensive rates in the nation.\nLambert likens the future of solar energy to the way the personal computer evolved. \u201cThe way we produce and consume electricity is changing for the better as products and consumption become more distributed,\" he said.\nBesides helping fulfill their mission to transition the region into a low-carbon economy, the Rochester schools' mission came with another perk, too. \u201c[The] cool thing about working with schools is that we have the opportunity to go into the classrooms,\u201d Lambert said.\nSunRaise visited the schools and taught multiple classes in Rochester on such topics as the financing behind the solar energy projects and how solar power works. Each school was gifted with monitoring LCD screens that display daily generation of solar electricity in real-time and show the students, faculty and parents what the daily and accumulated environmental benefits are from the solar array on their rooftops.\n\u201cIt feels good to be involved in a company that has our role in that really important transition in the grid,\u201d Lambert said.\nSunRaise Investments is at 200 Marcy St. Suite 102 in Portsmouth.

Warface on Xbox One is ow in Early Access and offers not three, but five Early Access packs for you to gain your entry to this shooter: one is a Collector's edition, while the other four are especially tailored to each class.\nWarface features several competitive game modes as well as a co-op mode for up to four players where you have to take down the AI-controlled forces of the Blackwood faction. You can also expect some Xbox One timed exclusives, including maps and mission types: three new PvP maps (Farm, Motel and Outskirts), a special operation mission called Cyber Horde, and the Bag and Tag game mode, where players only have to survive, while collecting tags from enemy bodies.\nDuring the first week on PlayStation 4, Warface managed to convince over 1.3 million players to register and try the game. 20% of those players are from the United States, while Germany comes second (12.5%) and France is in the third place (11.2%).",

The auditorium seats 100 people and the doors open at 6:00 p.m. All lectures are free. Thanks to Friends of Nisqually NWR Complex for their support of the summer lecture series.\nSo you want to be a Park Ranger\nRuss Cahill has been a Deputy Sheriff, a National Park Ranger, and the Director of State Parks in Alaska and California. He has authored several works including Kolea, a novel about ancient Hawai\u2019i and Tales from the Parks, a memoir of park ranger days.\nRuss will talk with you on his thoughts regarding the parks true origins and give some perspective on the present day situations. Along the way he will share stories from the \u201cwild days\u201d in the parks of the \u201860s and \u201870s. Be prepared for a conversation rather than a lecture. Questions are welcome; answers possible. There will be a quiz.\nWater, water everywhere, but is there enough? The paradox of water in Thurston County.\nKevin Hansen, LHg. LG, LEED AP is County Hydrogeologist for Thurston County, Washington.\nThis talk will \u201cfollow the water\u201d as it moves through our county. Come along on the journey as we learn about the twelve feet of rain falling in the Black Hills, to the drying streams in Yelm, to the amazing She Nah Nam (McAllister/Medicine Springs) gushing water, and to the wastewater feeding our summer creek flow. A portion of the data being presented was identified and calculated as part of the intensive data evaluation efforts in the aftermath of the Washington Supreme Court\u2019s Hirst decision in late 2016. Kevin Hansen is coming to convey the story behind the significant variance in water levels and its data impacting Thurston County.\nHave You Ever Wondered What the \u2018Mane\u2019 Difference is Between the American Lion, aka the Cougar, and the African Lion?\u201d\nRobyn Barfoot, Board member/core trainer at Wild Felid Advocacy Center\nHave you ever pondered what the differences are between our American lion and the African lion? Let\u2019s explore a local jewel and then take it global to the king of the jungle in Africa! We will even make a stop along the way to visit the very rare and endangered Asiatic lion. Join me in a fun filled, informative and intriguing evening that is bound to make you roar with excitement over these amazing felines! (Disclosure: The only lions that will be present during this lecture are the adorable stuffed animal kind.)\nColors of the West: An Artist's Guide to Nature's Palette\nLearn how Molly Hashimoto got started traveling and painting in the American West.

She'll bring a few of her favorite materials for you to test.\nGetting Past Your Photo Gear for Better Bird Photographs\nTim Boyer, author of Learn the Art of Bird Photography\nWhether you have a DSLR, a bridge camera or your digiscope, there are some important fundamentals of bird photography. This presentation talks about how to improve your bird photographs no matter what camera you may have. We\u2019ll look at the fundamentals of bird photography through the elements necessary to make a beautiful image. Those photographic elements include the quality of light you choose, getting a sharp image, a great point of view, managing the background, what to watch for at the edges of the frame, great composition, and how to get a good exposure. Tim will further present examples of proper field techniques along with how to get the best sun angle, how to get close to birds, and how to photograph birds in flight.\nWashington\u2019s Humble Bumbles\nDavid Jennings has an academic background in wildlife ecology and conservation. His conservation focus is on our native pollinators\nBumbles serve as a great introduction to our native bees and other pollinators. Field identification of bumble bees is harder than it might seem. Not only do other insects try to look like them but different species of bumble bees in a given area tend to look like each other. Across the U.S. there are approximately 48 species of bumble bees. At least twenty-four of them can be found in Washington. Our major focus will be ID tips for some of our more common species. Come learn about our native bumble bees, their behavior, our local ecology and local conservation issues. Learn them, respect them, protect them!\nLife\u2019s a beach: Snowy Plovers and what it really means to be a beach-nesting shorebird.\nGabrielle Robinson is a wildlife biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service\nEven for the species that have evolved to live and reproduce almost exclusively in coastal habitats, the beach can be a harsh and unforgiving place to call home. The increasing pressure from development, recreation, climate change, and the spread of invasive species threatens the inconspicuous but incredibly tenacious little shorebird, the Snowy Plover. See how this remarkable shorebird somehow manages to beat the odds of survival each year on our west coast beaches. Learn about the day-to-day struggles these threatened birds face, as well as some surprising success stories, and what you can do to help.\nFor Heaven\u2019s Sake Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation\nCome see the owls!\nClaudia Supensky, Director/Founder; and David Supensky, Project Manager Wildlife Rehabilitation - licensed with the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife\nThis presentation is expected to inform and educate attendees about wildlife rescue and rehabilitation. Learn about various species, what to do when coming upon animals that need help, and the mission of the Rehab Center: \"For Heaven\u2019s Sake Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation (FHSARR) is dedicated to the preservation of orphaned and injured animals (wildlife) by providing quality care and treatment in a safe, secure and nurturing environment while preparing them for release into their natural habitat,\u201d FHSARR is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.\nThe reclusive American Bittern is a master of disguise.

He had his hand around his throat.\u201d\nThe impact drove the nurse into a cabinet, and other staff members restrained Louis.\nThe man was left with bruising to the left side of his body and left arm, as well as soreness to his throat and a scratched face.\nWhen a nursing assistant asked if he was all right, Louis rushed at him with both arms, glanced off him, and went part way through a serving hatch to the kitchen.\n\u201cHe retrieved cutlery and threw them in the general direction of the nursing assistant,\u201d said Mr Carr.\nAnd when a female nurse tried to help, Louis grabbed her by the hair and forced her to the ground, before more staff intervened.\nThe second set of assaults happened at 5pm, on June 11, in the dining room of the Cheltenham ward, and the nurses were left with slight injuries and bruising.\nLouis, 36, admitted three counts of assault via his solicitor Sarah Cunnane, at Mansfield Magistrates Court, on Thursday.\nMs Cunnane said a traumatic brain injury at the age of three was reponsible for his \u201ccomplex mental disorder\u201d, and that he was likely to remain at Rampton for \u201cthe forseeable future.\u201d\nShe said Louis spent much of his time in seclusion to avoid committing offences.\n\u201cHe says he is sorry, but it is like his brain switches off, and he can\u2019t control himself,\u201d she said, adding Louis normally has a good relationship with staff.\nMagistrates ordered him to pay \u00a3100 compensation for the first assault on the team leader, as well as \u00a350 each to the other nursing assistants. No costs were awarded.",

        "raw_content": "As autumn approaches with soothing and calming temperatures, many of us look forward to opportunities for vigorous cardio activities that we\u2019ve put aside because of the sometimes unbearable heat of the summer. It\u2019s much easier to hike in the spring and fall, even in the peak afternoon hours, because the sun is not as intense.\nHiking is a lot of fun and a wonderful form of exercise for the entire family. Let\u2019s take a look at some of the benefits that regular hiking has on your body.\nHiking combines both cardiorespiratory and strength training activities. Hiking trains not only your heart and lungs, but also the large muscle groups of your legs, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, and the gastrocnemius/soleus muscles of your calves.\nBut hiking is not like other forms of exercise. As you may not be able to hike daily, it\u2019s important to have acquired a good level of fitness before you begin to go out regularly. Also, hikers need to be prepared for anything. When you hike, it\u2019s best to expect the unexpected and take along essential supplies: Water,Protein Bars or high-energy fruit like bananas, Sunscreen, Water-resistant clothes, Hiking Boots, Orientation tools like compasses, First aid items in case you fall and get a nasty cut.\nEach of these items is necessary for a safe and enjoyable hike. You don\u2019t want to run out of water or snacks. You don\u2019t want to get sunburnt or rained on. And you certainly don\u2019t want to get lost. According to Murphy\u2019s Law, the one item that you neglect or forget to bring, is the one you will need on that hike. The best policy is to always be prepared.\nIn terms of fitness preparation, beginning hikers should be able to walk 4 miles at a fair pace. This will allow you to hike a two-mile trail with a modest elevation, covering a total of four miles out and back. Doing this type of hike a few times will provide the preparation needed for increasing your capabilities.\nHiking preparation also includes strength training. In a comprehensive strength training program, you exercise all major muscle groups once a week. This is done by performing \u201csplit routines\u201d such as training chest and back, shoulders and arms, and legs on separate days. Your comprehensive strength training program works synergistically with your cardiorespiratory exercise. Visit an experienced physical therapist to make sure you\u2019re in top notch condition before engaging in regular exercise.\nAt Back2Health We Can Help You Get Better\u2026\nConsulting a trained professional will give you a better sense of what condition your body is in, and what types of exercise are most beneficial to you. Also, a professional will help you understand exactly how much is too much, and the precautions you need to take in order to avoid injury.",

        "raw_content": "Breaking : Court Acquits Femi Fani-Kayode Of Money Laundering Charges\nA Federal High Court in Lagos has discharged and acquitted a former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, of corruption charges.\nIn her judgment, the judge, Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia, said the prosecution\u2019s case was \"feeble\" and failed to provide \"copious evidence\" linking Mr. Fani-Kayode to money laundering.\nMr. Fani-Kayode, whose trial began in 2008 before Justice Ramat Mohammed, was arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for allegedly laundering about \u20a6100 million while he was Minister of Culture and Tourism and subsequently, Aviation Minister.\nThe allegedly laundered sum was, however, reduced to \u20a62.1million on November 17, 2014 after the court dismissed 38 of the 40-count charge levelled against Mr. Fani-Kayode for want of proof. The EFCC prosecutor, Festus Keyamo, while urging the court to uphold the remaining two counts and to accordingly convict Mr. Fani-Kayode, said the former minister failed to exonerate himself of the allegations.\nMr. Keyamo pointed out that the object of the charge was that Mr. Fani-Kayode transacted in cash sums above \u20a6500,000, which was the threshold stipulated by the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act.\nMr. Keyamo had argued that Mr. Fani-Kayode admitted making such transactions in his confessional statement of Dec. 22, 2008 made to the EFCC.\nMr. Keyamo had argued that the prosecution had discharged its duty once it established that Mr. Fani-Kayode transacted in large sums above the Money Laundering threshold, adding that it was left for Mr. Fani-Kayode to explain the source of the money.\n\u201cOnce you cannot explain the source of the large sum of money found on you, you are guilty of money laundering. If the prosecution must show where the money is coming from, then the whole essence of the money laundering law is defeated.\n\u201cIt is not in all cases that the burden of proof lies on the prosecution; the burden at this point shifts to the accused person,\u201d Mr. Keyamo argued.\nBut Mr. Fani-Kayode\u2019s lawyer, Ifedayo Adedipe (SAN), in his summary argument, maintained that Mr. Fani-Kayode made no confession to the EFCC, adding that the anti-graft agency failed to show that Mr. Fani-Kayode actually accepted a cash sum of N1million as alleged.\nMr. Adedipe said the EFCC also failed to show to the court the person who handed the cash sum to the accused person.\nroyalty2008 at 11:33 AM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\nDaniel has come to judgement\nLet APC go to hell\nRitabrenice at 11:53 AM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\n\u00bb\u0336\u0325\u01a0\u0361\u0334k\u2323\u030a\u2508\u0325 o\ncngratulati\u00f4n u mke a diff.\nroyalsam450 at 12:45 PM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\nstephen153 at 01:19 PM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\nThat one was signed since... politics is a game..\nDreamzykayz at 01:24 PM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\nrobertedo3 at 02:37 PM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\nThe rich are never guilty in nig What a people and a nation its quite a pity\nfemjay at 03:12 PM, 1/07/2015 (3 years ago)\nI am nt suprised at all ....

Having recently gained indepth experience through its water sector reform programme, Mexico is in a position to share its insights with Bolivia. The professional networks that Mexico has established are also of great use. Germany's vast technical experience and expertise, together with its long-standing partnership with Bolivia, provide a beneficial framework for triangular cooperation, enabling actors to build on networks and cooperation structures that are already in place. Bolivia, Mexico and Germany first engaged in triangular cooperation in 2011.\nSustainable cross-sector and participatory strategies for improving wastewater treatment are developed and implemented, thus helping to improve food security and contain the spread of diseases caused by contaminated water and agricultural produce.\nTriangular cooperation between Mexico, Bolivia and Germany promotes the exchange of experience and the transfer of knowledge between experts from the three countries. Every year several study and research trips take place, as do joint seminars on various aspects of water resource management and wastewater recycling. This intensive cooperation and regular exchange of experience feeds and nurtures a dynamic knowledge platform that benefits all stakeholders. Key activity areas in the follow-on project include rolling out successful measures from the period 2011 to 2013, further developing wastewater standards and regulations, and organising more training for staff at national and municipal authorities by producing basic and further training modules (diplomado).\nVarious government agencies in the partner countries are involved. In Mexico, these are the National Water Commission (CONAGUA) and the Mexican Agency for International Cooperation and Development (AMEXCID). In Bolivia they are the Ministry of Development Planning (MPD) and the Ministry of Environment and Water (MMAyA). A large number of civil society organisations and research institutes are also involved in the project in Mexico and Germany.\nThrough the creation of a dynamic learning platform, encouraging countries to exchange technical knowledge on a regular basis, Bolivia has been able to benefit from Mexico\u2019s and Germany\u2019s experience and know-how. In total, more than 220 experts and government agency staff have taken part in training workshops and seminars in Mexico and Bolivia on sustainable water resource management.\nSix municipalities in Bolivia have been able to improve their local wastewater treatment infrastructure as a result of technical advice provided by CONAGUA. The concept has already been rolled out in the municipality of Comarapa, resulting in the installation of a fully functional wastewater treatment plant. In the municipality of Sacaba, the project supported decision-makers planning the construction of a wastewater system; the measures will be completed in the near future. Implementation of these measures will see the homes of approximately 75,000 inhabitants connected to a wastewater treatment plant for the first time. It will also give farmers access to recycled wastewater that meets quality standards and can be used to irrigate their fields.\nSpanish version: Cooperaci\u00f3n triangular entre M\u00e9xico, Bolivia y Alemania: Depuraci\u00f3n y reutilizaci\u00f3n de aguas servidas y protecci\u00f3n de los recursos h\u00eddricos como medidas de adaptaci\u00f3n al cambio clim\u00e1tico\nThe project is funded by the:\nPromoting the reuse of recycled wastewater for agricultural irrigation in Bolivia (GIZ 2014)",

        "raw_content": "Grant Thornton UK expands Growth 365 service in Scotland with senior hire\nFollowing a successful first year in Scotland, Grant Thornton is set to expand its Growth 365 service for ambitious, growth-hungry CEOs.\nThe leading business and financial advisor has hired George Elliott, who joins the firm as Growth Adviser.\nGeorge has decades of board room experience, including non-executive chairman and director roles for over 20 leading tech companies. He\u2019s also developed a proven track record in assisting fast-growing businesses keen to operate on the global stage.\nFollowing several years of assisting business leaders in England, Grant Thornton\u2019s Growth 365 was officially launched last year in Scotland, enabling the firm to provide focused advice and valuable insights to enable business owners to put their expansion plans into action.\nThe service has already been used by a range of CEOs across a variety of sectors, from Food and Drink to Public Relations.\n\u201cGeorge has an enviable reputation in the business world and his work with the growing tech sector really demonstrates his understanding of the challenges and aspirations that CEOs face \u2013 particularly at that crucial point when they\u2019re keen to expand and hungry for advice and support.\n\u201cOur Growth 365 really filled a void in Scotland. We could see the need to provide more bespoke, tailored assistance, dedicated to individual leaders on top of our advice to businesses as a whole. What is clear is that the country is more entrepreneurial than ever before, and Growth 365 can play a crucial role in helping business owners find their true, international potential.\u201d\nCommenting on his appointment, George Ellliott added:\n\u201cA huge part of my career has involved facilitating growth for highly focused, driven tech firms. That\u2019s why I can\u2019t wait to get involved with Growth 365. We have a really rich mix of business talent in Scotland, but there\u2019s often a lack of support for the people driving that entrepreneurial growth at the top.\n\u201cGiven the uncertain economic climate right now, business owners are looking for the guidance and advice that can help them plan their long-term strategies. I\u2019m excited to play my part in ensuring Growth 365 is at the heart of the future success of Scotland\u2019s most dynamic leaders.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "\"pura vida,\u201d meaning pure life\nWelcome to Costa Rica (Rich Coast), a place teeming with an endless variety of life. From the inspiring rainforests to majestic volcanoes to fine sandy beaches and lovely resorts, discover the wonders of a tropical paradise when you travel to Costa Rica. Upon arrival you will understand why this has become the world\u2019s most popular eco-destination. This Central American nation still protects 25% of its land.\nSelect a city Arenal San Jose\nGuanacaste:\nOne of the most popular provinces in Costa Rica, it is called the tropical paradise. Located in the far northwest corner of Costa Rica, it is not only diverse, but exotic as well. It lies between two mountains with a beautiful sandy coast. Its hot and dry climate makes it a popular location for surfers trying to escape the cold winter months in the northern latitude.\nManuel Antonio National Park:\nThis is the smallest of Costa Rica\u2019s national parks, but it is considered one of its best. It is recognized for its vast biodiversity and is home to many of Costa Rica\u2019s endangered species. It features lush tropical forests, lagoons, mangroves, and white sandy beaches. You\u2019ll find well-marked trails that allow visitors to explore freely, but there they limit the amount of visitors because of the park\u2019s popularity\nArenal Volcano:\nCurrently lying dormant, this massive, ancient volcano was the country\u2019s most active volcano for over 40 years. Looming over the landscape, Arenal dominates the horizon in the rainforest. Around the volcano you can visit the wildlife refuge, take a sky trek, raft the river, or repel a waterfall.\nTortuguero National Park:\nThis Park is unique as it is better traveled by boat rather than by foot. There are boat tours or kayak and canoe rentals available for visitors. There is a trail that travels along the beach where you can observe turtle nesting in their natural habitat. Other than turtles you will also find a variety of animals here such as jaguars, macaws, tapirs, and over 300 species of birds, reptiles, and other mammals.\nLake Arenal Cruise:\nThis vast and pristine lake sits at the base of the majestic Arenal Volcano. It is considered the country\u2019s most spectacular lake offering numerous water activities and of course a beautiful view. They have a multitude of cruises such as a volcano viewing and nature tour, romantic sunset cruise, fishing excursion, or bird watching cruises.\nTamarindo Beach:\nOnce a sleepy fishing village, it has grown into the area\u2019s most developed and accessible tourist town. This sun-drenched setting consists of soft beige sand, tide pools, and some of the most stunning sunsets. The beach hosts several international surf competitions. Besides surfing, the main activities to do here are sport fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming, and horseback riding.\nMonteverde Cloud Forest (Hanging Bridges):\nThe skywalk is a combination of suspension bridges and walking trails that bring you through the lush Montverde rainforest. There are six bridges and the trails are about a mile and a half long. Local guides lead you on the tour teaching you about ecology. The canopy of this tropical forest was widely unknown due to its towering height until these suspension bridges were created and opened up a whole new world to visitors.\nCosta Rica is known for its impeccable coffee. The coffee bean is socially, economically and politically important to the country. The highland areas surrounding San Jose and the Tilaran Mountain range is where you will find many coffee plantations as they have the ideal climate for growing coffee. To fully understand the importance, take a plantation tour that gives you a chance to try the world\u2019s freshest cup of coffee.\n\"I loved the natural history aspect of the tour. The guides helped us to see and identify them so now I have 60 different names of birds on my list for Costa Rica. Seeing butterflies, crocodiles, sloths, iguanas, monkeys, frogs, turtles, and more were all part of our experience.\u201d\nWith some free time in San Jose I would visit the popular Spirogyra Butterfly Garden, a small piece of paradise.\nWhen packing, think in layers to account for temperature changes. I also highly recommend a raincoat or poncho and sturdy shoes you can get wet. It\u2019s called a rainforest for a reason!\nThe local currency of Costa Rica is the Costa Rican Colon. US dollars are also widely accepted in most tourist areas, though colones may be required for some small purchases.\nFeatured Tours to Costa Rica\nFeatured Deals!

        "raw_content": "I\u2019ve just finished playing this afternoon \u2013 I didn\u2019t have the best game but it was a lot of fun. I always think that the worst day of golf beats the best day of working:)\nToday I was joined by a new junior member who really impressed me. He has a distinctive swing, not orthodox, but it definitely got the job done. This little guy played without any fuss and was able to repeat his swing time after time. He shot 4 over, which is a good score on a difficult golf course and a course he isn\u2019t that familiar with.\nI hope he doesn\u2019t change his swing. I\u2019m sure there will be pressure to do so as he gets older \u2013 but I hope he resists the urge. I\u2019m positive that he can become a super player with what he has \u2013 I\u2019d hate to see his natural style compromised and be forced to look more conventional.\nThe main topic of conversation today was Greg Norman. He currently has a two shot lead at The Open. There is only about six hours before he hits off in the final round, and I\u2019ve been asked about 100 times if he can win.\nEach time I said, \u201cOf course he can!\u201d\nGreg Norman has been my hero since the first time I saw him play in 1988. I was so impressed by his charisma and style of play that I gave up a promising soccer career to play golf. There has always been something special about him and it doesn\u2019t surprise me that he is doing so well.\nI think all of the near misses, bad luck and poor finishes of previous major losses will hold him in good shape later today. He has nothing to lose and I\u2019m sure he is in a better head space then he has ever been before going into the last round of a major.\nThe big key is for him to keep swinging and playing aggresively. I really hope he goes for it, keeps taking driver on most holes and doesn\u2019t opt for a safe game plan.\nIf he can get over the line it will be one of the greatest wins of all time. I\u2019m a little biased, but I can\u2019t think of anything in recent times that would match that achievement. Can you?\nI\u2019m astounded that Channel 7\u2019s lead news story tonight was the world record by Grant Hackett in the 800 metre short course Olympic trial. A great effort, but surely Norman\u2019s effort so far is a bigger story? Maybe I\u2019m missing something or just biased?\nAnyway, I can hardly wait and I\u2019m off to bed to get some sleep before it gets underway.",

All of the measures are for protected areas within Scottish Territorial Waters where Scottish Ministers have exclusive competence to manage fisheries.\nSpecial Areas of Conservation ( SACs) are designated under the EU Habitats Directive. Many of the SACs in Scottish Territorial Waters were designated in 2005. A review of how the EU Habitats Directive is implemented in the marine environment in Scotland has taken place. This has concluded that the provisions regarding the assessment of plans and projects should also apply to fishing.\nThis led to the review of existing management arrangements. This review has resulted in management proposals for 9 SACs in this consultation, mainly for locations with the most sensitive habitats.\nNature Conservation Marine Protected Areas ( MPAs) are designated under the Marine (Scotland) Act 2010 in Scottish Territorial Waters. In July 2014 Scottish Ministers designated 30 MPAs, of which 17 were in Scottish Territorial Waters. There are proposals for 11 of these MPAs in this consultation. These have been prioritised according to the presence of the most sensitive seabed habitats.\nFor each site there may be one or more approaches to management. The consultation is seeking views on your preferred approach. Each approach is designed to meet the statutory requirements to protect the site in question. They are accompanied by ecological, economic, and intensity assessment information which informed the design of the approaches. This is detailed in the approaches to management document. The consultation also seeks to confirm the accuracy of the estimates made, and the design of the approaches. In some cases there may be additional questions particularly in respect of protected features which have a conservation objective to recover the habitat.\nProposals for measures for up to a further 13 SACs are likely to be consulted on next year, along with any measures needed for other MPAs.\nAt present there are no plans for statutory measures for Special Protection Areas classified under the EU Wild Birds Directive.\nIn offshore waters Marine Scotland is also developing proposals for management of SACs and MPAs. These fisheries measures will be delivered via the Common Fisheries Policy.",

        "raw_content": "How to Lead Change From the Lower Ranks\nBy Jackson Nickerson\nQ: Recently, you answered a question about how to spur innovation as a manager. I have the same question, but I am just a secretary. I have used available forums to try and introduce basic best practices but have not had success. I would like to increase efficiency and improve the culture here at work. Any suggestions or encouragement would be appreciated.\nThank you so much for your email. I am appreciative of readers who are courageous enough to email me in response to a column!\nLet me begin by saying that there is no such thing as \"just\" a secretary. All too often that job title\u2014as well as some others\u2014gets a bad rap. Such a position, if done well, can be a pivotal enabler for not just the employee\u2019s supervisor but also the entire organization.\nAll public servants, no matter their rank and position, have the potential to create value for America. In the language of business, everyone has a role to play. Some roles may have greater impact and some lesser. Nevertheless, all are important. If creating value is not possible in a certain position, then it should be eliminated.\nI love the fact that you want to help advance the culture of your organization. Leading need not come only from the top, with directions and instructions handed down the chain of command. Even those with military experience know leadership needs to come from every level of the organization to achieve effectiveness, efficiency and excellence.\nThe challenge is when people in formal leadership positions stymie subordinates who try to lead. Instead of empowering staff members, they stifle them. Instead of moving barriers out of the way, those leaders fabricate them. Such behaviors are indicators are of a leader seeking control and compliance instead of commitment and caring. What can you do to innovate and advance your organization\u2019s culture if you are under such a yoke?\nSince you are willing to be an informal leader, my advice is similar to what I offered before, but with a few twists. Here are three things to consider:\nFirst, start with you. Shape your own mind-set. How can you ask yourself questions that will change your mind-set? What can you do differently to increase the value you provide to others? Can you ask others to help you discover new opportunities? Focus initially on defining the challenge, opportunity or problem before jumping to a solution. Once you confirm that resolving the challenge will create value, then and only then, start thinking about approaches.\nIf you come up with a valuable idea, especially if it involves you rewiring only your tasks and activities, then find a way to do it. After a few successes that others can see, experience and acknowledge, start asking incrementally bigger questions. Formulate challenges that may need to involve a few more people, but not too many more\u2014you want to achieve success without the need for too much time and too many resources.\nStart small and local to your position. As you succeed, slowly grow in magnitude the challenges that you choose to tackle. With positive attitude and positive outcomes you likely will stimulate others to follow.\nSecond, an important technique for leading a cultural shift from the lower levels of an organization instead of from the top is something called \u201cappreciated inquiry.\" Ask your colleagues about their stories of success. Ask them to tell you about when and how they innovated. Discover the challenges they faced and how they overcame those challenges. Then show your appreciation for what they have done.\nFind opportunities to share these narratives with others. Doing so will not only create mutual appreciation and build trust, but it also will have a profound impact on your colleagues. By telling these stories and appreciating others you will capture their attention and focus their mind-set on creating their own stories of innovation. A successful spiral of appreciation about even small innovations will naturally lead to people wanting to do more so they will have new stories to tell and new sources of appreciation.\nThird, in some instances my advice will not work and could work against you. If your superordinates and colleagues feel threatened by such actions, then your environment may be toxic beyond your control. While I like to think toxic leaders are relatively small in number, they do exist. If your colleagues put you down and your superordinate does not support you in your efforts, then you might not be in the right organization. Even in a time of austerity, opportunities to transfer or find new positions in the federal government exist. Seek out appreciative and innovative leaders and groups that will bring out the best in you. Otherwise, if you stay in a toxic organization it is only a matter time before, as the saying goes, the frog boils.\nMy advice is to stay positive. Continually seek out new ways to create value. Uncover stories of innovation. Be appreciative. Become a local source of positivism, not just for yourself but also for your organization.

        "raw_content": "Reconstitute colleges of education governing councils \u2014 tewu\nMr Augustine Saakuur Karbo, TEWU General Secretary\nThe Teachers and Educational Workers Union (TEWU) has appealed to the government to fast-track the reconstitution of the governing councils of the colleges of education just as it has done for the public universities and the technical universities to make them fully functional.\nIt said there was no doubt that governing councils were critical in every institution because they were higher decision-making bodies, with the sole responsibility of fashioning out policies and programmes, as well as taking major decisions for implementation by the management.\n\u201cIn the view of TEWU, the absence of governing councils for the colleges of education is affecting their operations in terms of how certain decisions that are supposed to affect staff are left in the hands of management, which may be subjected to so many manipulations and arbitrariness.\n\u201cThe leadership of TEWU sees the current development regarding the issue of Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) and the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission as unfortunate.\nThis is because the governing council would have played a major role in dealing with the concerns of the tutors like Market Premium and other allowances like the category two and three allowances,\u201d a statement signed by the General Secretary of TEWU, Mr Augustine Saakuur Karbo, said.\nIt said the issues of understaffing, student graduation, promotions of senior staff among others were being affected due to the absence of the councils.\n\u201cBesides that, decisions on staff recruitment\u2014both teaching and non-teaching \u2014will need approval from the governing councils. There is serious understaffing at the colleges of education, as some staff have been reassigned to the Ghana Education Service (GES).\nIt is, therefore, important to replace those who have been reassigned to the GES, based on the current dispensation where the colleges of education are now under the National Council for Tertiary Education.\nAlso some people have gone on retirement following the transition from the then colleges of education, which were under the GES,\u201d the statement said.\nThe leadership of TEWU, the statement said, was aware some work was being done to reconstitute the governing councils, but was urging the government to speed up the process.\nThe statement said it was important for the various stakeholders whose nominees would represent them on the councils to do nominations immediately, and that \u201cin the case of TEWU, we have met our rank and file at the various colleges of education, and we are more than ready with our representative for the council to complete the governance structures for efficient smooth academic work and other activities at the colleges of education\u201d.\n\u201cWe call on other stakeholders to also do the same, so that we can all support the process of reconstituting the councils for them to be inaugurated in good time for a full complement of the governance structure for smooth administration, higher decisions and policy directions at the colleges of education,\u201d it said.",

        "title": "Sydney Erhardt: GW should help students with absentee voting \u2013 The GW Hatchet",
        "raw_content": "Sydney Erhardt: GW should help students with absentee voting\nUpdated: Sept. 15 at 1:13 p.m.\nI watched my roommate take out a decorative green envelope, meticulously fold her absentee ballot three times and seal the envelope with a piece of neon-colored duct tape and a \u201cNew Jersey State Birds\u201d postage stamp. As I took two minutes to fill out the Minnesota absentee ballot application online, I looked at her and thought \u201cThat\u2019s one dedicated voter.\u201d\nRequesting and filling out absentee ballots can be confusing \u2014 even for students on the most politically active campus in the nation. Student organizations and University officials should help students through the absentee voting process. Students need more information about voting in their home states\u2019 elections or on changing their places of residency to vote in the District.\nTo vote in the presidential election Nov. 8, students need to know the rules of their home states, decide if they will vote in the state they\u2019re from or the state \u2014 District, for us \u2014 they go to school in, obtain the necessary identification and residency documents and fill out the appropriate applications all within the specified deadline of 30 days before the election. It sounds like a difficult process because, frankly, it is.\nOur generation has the lowest voter turnout of any other age demographic in national elections, and it\u2019s not due to laziness. Students must navigate a patchwork of voting laws to decide how to vote.\nLande Watson, the president of GW College Democrats, said that students from different states may not know how to absentee vote because the laws in California are extremely different from the laws in West Virginia.\n\u201cSimply put, students are confused about the registration process because it is extremely confusing,\u201d Watson said.\nVoting in D.C. may sound enticing to GW undergraduate students who spend more time in D.C. than they do in their home states \u2014 it did to me when I first came to GW. It\u2019s where I go to school, where I work, where I pay taxes and now where I have a vested interest in local politics. But there are some hidden consequences.\nCollege students should consider that changes in their official government residency could affect their academic scholarships or student loans. Some scholarships and student loans are contingent on residency status in a certain region or state, and a change of address on an official government document could result in scholarships getting revoked. And the changes you\u2019d have to make don\u2019t stop there. Any student who registers to vote in D.C. must apply for a new D.C. driver\u2019s license and re-register their cars \u2014 if they own them \u2014 with D.C. plates within 30 days following the election. If you still want to cast your ballot in our nation\u2019s capital, be aware that D.C. does not accept student ID cards as proper identification and student voters will be required to show proof of residency, which can include student housing statements.\nI didn\u2019t know just how complicated it would be to change my voter registration until I spent hours combing through D.C. election bylaws. It would have helped to have a fellow student, faculty member or administrator walk me through the process.\nOther universities noticed that students needed help with voter registration, and they took action. American University partnered with an election service called TurboVote. TurboVote is a reminder application that notifies students by email when it\u2019s time to request ballots or go to the polls. At Harvard University, officials offered students the ability to automatically request an absentee ballot during their move-in this fall. Ohio State University issued students zero-balance utility bills, so that they have proof of residence at the polls. Florida State University even has an entire webpage dedicated to helping students cast their votes in the presidential election.\nGW could follow any of these colleges\u2019 examples to help students decide how they want to vote this November. Right now, GW has a subsection of a subsection on their Office of the Registrar webpage that refers students to the hotline for the D.C. Board of Elections, but that isn\u2019t enough \u2014 especially for our politically active student body.\nSome student organizations host events to help students register \u2013 College Republicans, College Democrats and the Interfraternity Council will host be hosting a registration drive at the end of this month. But registration is only half the battle. It\u2019s really about getting students to the polls on election day.\nSo, GW students, without guidance or resources from GW officials, it\u2019s up to you to decide how to vote this election day, and it\u2019s up to you to figure out how to vote. And wherever you decide to cast your vote, remember that you can\u2019t complain if you don\u2019t participate.\nSydney Erhardt, a sophomore majoring in international affairs, is a Hatchet opinions writer.

        "raw_content": "A Guide to the Real Cost of Painting a Home\u2019s Exterior\nIf you\u2019ve been thinking about repainting the outside of your house, but haven\u2019t yet taken the plunge, fear of the cost is probably a big reason for your hesitation. Although fresh paint is typically thought of as a relatively low-cost way to make a big visual impact, a major exterior paint job can still be pricey.\nAs you read the rest of this guide, you\u2019ll learn more about the true cost of having your home re-painted by professional contractors. Remember, no two estimates are exactly the same, so you\u2019ll need to have experts visit your home to find out precisely how much you will have to pay for the project you\u2019d like to have done in the near future.\nSpeaking in general terms, without taking the cost of materials or the type of covering you have on your house into consideration, exterior painting can cost as little as $1,000 or as much as $6,000. The smaller your home is, the less you will have to pay. For example, a one-story residence between 500 and 1,500 square feet is likely to cost between $1,000 and $3,000 to paint.\nIf, however, you live in a larger house, such as a three-story home that is 3,000 square feet or more, you\u2019ll probably be looking at a total cost of $4,500 to over $6,000. There are, of course, many other factors that play into the price of the exterior painting, but this is a general overview to help you get started with your budget planning.\nAs mentioned above, some particular factors will play into how much you have to pay for your exterior painting project. These include the price of the paint you and your contractor choose, the sheer amount of square footage that is to be painted, and the amount of prep work that is required.\nIf, for instance, old paint has to be scraped off of wood or concrete walls, you will have to pay more than you would if the surface was already set for new paint. Below, you\u2019ll see a list of typical price ranges for painting various house coverings:\n-Concrete \u2013 $500 \u2013 $2,000\n-Metal \u2013 $400 \u2013 $1,500\n-Stucco \u2013 $900 \u2013 $3,000\n-Vinyl \u2013 $600 \u2013 $2,000\n-Wood \u2013 $700 \u2013 $2,000\nRemember, these are just meant to help you begin planning the budget for your project. In order to get an accurate estimate, you will have to contact reputable contractors in the Charlotte, NC area and have them assess your house.\nAt Hatch Homes, we have many years of experience with exterior painting. Whether your job is straightforward or involves extra steps, such as testing for lead paint, we are up to the challenge. Give us a call to schedule your consultation.\nOne of our experts will meet with you and your family to discuss your upcoming project and provide you with a comprehensive quote.

        "raw_content": "Home / Laser surgery for prostate\nFIRST CENTER IN BALEARIC ISLANDS AND THIRD IN SPAIN TO OFFER LASER SYSTEM\nThe laser technique was first introduced in Balearic Islands in 2004, through our Center. Dr. Mariano Rossell\u00f3 accumulates the largest number of cases performed with this technique in the Balearic Islands. Laser surgery is extremely effective and comfortable for the patient; it can be carried out as an outpatient surgery, since it is minimally invasive and therefore, has a very quick recovery period.\nPatient profile eligible for this procedure\nSpecially indicated for patients with a prostate weighing between 40 and 100 grams, of any age and with a history of serious condition due to prostatism: weak urine flow, high frequency of urination, delayed onset of urination, etc.\nThe laser system is the most important advance in the last 25 years in the treatment of BPH or enlarged prostate. This new technology uses a laser combined with an optical fiber, specially designed for this application. The combination of both (laser + fiber) allows soft tissue to be vaporized completely thus eliminating the enlarged prostate tissue. Approved by the FDA and the EU, its efficiency and reliability is beyond doubt. Currently, our Centre has over 550 cases of experience.\nWhere was this method developed?\nThis method was developed after five years of clinical research at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota (USA). As per our country, this technology is currently available in different hospitals throughout the peninsula. Our Centre was the third in Spain to incorporate it.\nThe laser method is minimally invasive and provides as long lasting results as other more aggressive surgical options.\n1. According to clinical data, no other method for the treatment of BPH manifests such an immediate symptom relief.\n2. This technique only requires 24-hours of in-clinic stay, it produces virtually no blood loss and recovery time is fast and comfortable. It is ideal for patients taking anticoagulants and / or antiplatelets.\n3. The probe is to be worn only for 8-10 hours.\n4. Allows vaporization of 2 grams of tissue per minute.\n5. Minimal risk of urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction post-surgery.\n6. Unlike retropubic prostatectomy, the patient does not have to stay in the clinic during 7-8 days.",

        "raw_content": "If a 998 Offer to Compromise is Ambiguous, The Court will Allow any Ambiguity to be Clarified when Considering the Offer\u2019s Validity\nPrince v. Invensure Insurance Brokers (2018) WL 2276603 allows a party to clarify the terms of an ambiguous California Code of Civil Procedure section 998 offer to compromise (998). Such clarification encourages reasonable settlement offers to be accepted and thus, if the 998 offer is denied after the clarification occurs, the offering party is entitled to post-offer costs.\nIn Prince, the jury returned with a verdict in favor of Plaintiff Duncan Prince in the amount of $647,706.48. Plaintiffs filed a memorandum of costs, which included expert costs. Defendant and Cross-Complainant, Invensure, moved to tax these costs. Plaintiff\u2019s claim for expert expenses rested on two 998 offers served on Defendant Invensure. The first, dated January 24, 2014, was in the amount of $400,000 and the second, dated March 11, 2014, was in the amount of $500,000, but specifically stated that it was to resolve the First Amended Complaint only. Neither offer made any mention of Cross-Defendant ERM. Both used standard Judicial Council forms and were ultimately denied by Defendant Invensure.\nThe trial court granted the motion to tax costs in part, and limited Plaintiff\u2019s claim for expert fees to a single expert which related to Plaintiff\u2019s damages within the First Amended Complaint. The trial court ruled that Plaintiff\u2019s first 998 offer was ambiguous and the Plaintiff\u2019s second 998 offer was valid.\nHowever, the Court of Appeal found the January 998 offer to be valid. In reaching its ruling, the Court of Appeal focused on the parties\u2019 actual intent. Stating, \u201cwhere two sophisticated parties are represented by counsel, allowing an offer to compromise to be clarified in writing after the offer was made serves the purpose of section 998. Such clarification encourages reasonable settlement offers to be accepted. Permitting a rule of overly strict construction of the language of the offer, despite the parties\u2019 actual knowledge of the other\u2019s intent, would frustrate this purpose rather than serve it.\u201d\nIn this instance, after the January 998 offer was made, a string of email correspondence ensued amongst counsel. Defendant Invensure\u2019s counsel stated that if the 998 offer was intended to dispose of the entire action (including the Cross-Complaint), it was rejected; but if referred only to the Complaint, Invensure would like an additional week to consider the offer.\nIn response, Plaintiff\u2019s counsel confirmed the offer was indeed intended \u201cto dispose of the entire action.\u201d Such clarification removed any uncertainty that the Cross-Complaint was also intended to be included. Thus, the offeree\u2019s intent was clear. Defendant Invensure knew exactly what the 998 offer included \u2013 disposing of the entire action (including the Cross-Complaint). Accordingly, Defendant Invensure\u2019s rejection of the January 998 offer, precluded it from escaping the statutory mandate to pay Plaintiff\u2019s post-offer costs.\nAs such, the Court found these emails to clarify the ambiguities within the initial 998 offer and determined that the clarification made the initial 998 offer valid. The Court of Appeal remanded that issue to the trial court for further consideration regarding the expert witness fees due to Plaintiff.\nThis document is intended to provide you with information about law related developments.

That year, Fanatics began to dabble in manufacturing licensed sports merchandise, securing limited permissions from leagues to manufacture apparel in response to \u2018micro-moments,\u2019 sudden surges of interest in a team or player that were too abrupt for the league\u2019s usual licensees to react to. The success of these efforts raised the possibility that Fanatics might make a play to displace a major athletic wear manufacturer as the official merchandise licensee of a major sports league. For a company with little manufacturing infrastructure and experience however, it was unclear whether this was an advisable step for Fanatics, or how they would go about it.\nKeywords: Fanatics; licensed merchandise; e-commerce; Entrepreneurship; Strategy; Organizational Change and Adaptation; Sports; Apparel and Accessories Industry; Retail Industry; Manufacturing Industry; United States;\nHiggins, Robert F., and John Masko. \"Michael Rubin and Fanatics (A).\" Harvard Business School Case 819-077, November 2018.\nJay Gould, 'The Most Hated Man in America'\nTom Nicholas, John Masko and Matthew G. Preble\nRailroad magnate Jay Gould, a controversial figure in the history of U.S. capitalism, was a disruptive influence on an industry that had previously relied on formal and informal agreements to move traffic long distances across lines operated by different companies. Gould and his competitors replaced these agreements with consolidation and system-building, a process which led to the rise of government regulation of railroads in the 1880s and to widespread railroad bankruptcies in the 1890s. This case explores the growth of early American railroads, places Gould\u2019s career in context (including his famous attempt to corner the U.S. gold market), and demonstrates the implications of his activities on competitive dynamics in the railroad industry.\nKeywords: railroads; history; Gould; Vanderbilt; Rail Transportation; History; Consolidation; Governing Rules, Regulations, and Reforms; Competition; Strategy; Rail Industry; United States;\nNicholas, Tom, John Masko, and Matthew G.

        "title": "ANETTE OLZON Singer And Nurse | HeadBangers Lifestyle",
        "raw_content": "Singer And Nurse\n09 March 2018 by Ron Willemsen\nShe succeeded singer Tarja in Nightwish in 2007. With Nightwish she made \u2018Dark Passion Play\u2019, \u2018Imaginaerum\u2019 and \u2018Imaginaerum: The Score\u2019, before she was fired in the middle of a tour in October 2012. After that, she took some time off to focus on other important things in her life. She released a solo album called \u2018Shine\u2019 in 2014 which was laid back and acoustic. Although busy with the upbringing of her 3 kids she started studying at University to become a registered nurse. Now she is really back at the musical front with a project called The Dark Element, together with Finnish guitarist and song writer Jani Liimatainen, ex-Sonata Arctica. High time for HeadBangers LifeStyle to get up close and personal with the talented Swedish singer.\nHow does it feel to be back?\n,,It feels good actually. This is a side thing for me and Jani, so I did not go in with any expectations other than just to have fun and record an album. Now it\u2019s released and when people embrace it you get such a positive vibe. After many years people having said bad things about me that\u2019s nice for a change so I\u2019m happy being back.\u2019\u2019\nWhat was your first reaction when the project was suggested?\n,,I was hesitant because I hadn\u2019t done anything for a while. I was studying hard at University. I have small children so at first there was a time issue. I didn\u2019t hear Jani\u2019s previous work so it was a bit of a gamble because they didn\u2019t have any songs ready for me yet, and I usually always have to hear something before I commit to it. But I discussed it with my husband and he encouraged me to do it. So, it took me some days to think it over but I am happy I did it.\u2019\u2019\nWhat was your input on the material?\n,,The vocals, haha. Jani did all the lyrics and melodies but I could change it if I wanted. But he did such a great job and I didn\u2019t feel like putting energy in nitpicking so everything was fine. I told Jani in which key the song should be in so they would suit me and I was free to do the vocals as I wanted. I did the vocal harmonies myself, so I\u2019ve been arranging a lot in the vocals.\u2019\u2019\nThat was all?\n,,Well, first of all there was no time for me to write and when I write lyrics it is for my own songs, because this style is not the style I write songs in. The songs on \u2018Shine\u2019 are more my thing, more laid back and acoustic. I am happy Jani wrote the lyrics so I could focus on the vocals.\u2019\u2019\nWhat was your reaction when you heard the final mixes?\n,, I was happy. First you have a demo where Jani sings, then I put my vocals on it and you think some songs are better than others, then Jani put his little mix on it and you go \u2018yeah maybe\u2019 and then mixing guy [Jacob Hansen] comes in and the magic happens. I am so very happy with every song. He did a really good job.\u2019\u2019\n,,For me it\u2019s about life with all its ups and downs.\u2019\u2019-Anette Olzon\nIs there a theme or message on this album?\n,,Not that I know of. Jani had his own thoughts when he wrote it but all I know is that most songs are written for this project and my voice. For me it is about life, the struggles, love, illness, but in the end you should live life and be happy about it. That\u2019s the theme for me and what I was feeling when I sang it. For me it\u2019s about life with all its ups and downs.\u2019\u2019\nThe lyrics are pretty dark but the music is in contrast, very uplifting. Are the lyrics the dark element?\n,,I think Jani wanted this album to be super catchy, a bit cheesy at times. Easy on the ears music wise and sometimes he would put a bit of darkness in the lyrics. When I talk about the dark element it is the dark spot inside. On the outside you are positive and try to uphold a positive attitude, but when you\u2019re alone, or in your own space, that dark, gloomy side comes out and since Jani is Finnish I\u2019m pretty sure this is kind of the feeling he has. Finnish people are known to be a bit gloomy, haha. You have to be a bit melancholic.\u2019\u2019\nAfter Nightwish and before The Dark Element you made a solo album. Was that to get things off your chest?\n,,No, I already made the whole album in 2009 when we had a longer break from Nightwish. I changed from being no one to become a somewhat famous singer. When I took the job my husband divorced me, I left my child at home, it was such a stressful period of time, those years, the touring. It went by with such speed that I still don\u2019t remember everything. During the break I told Tuomas [Holopainen] that I wanted to record my own album. I didn\u2019t want it to be anything like Nightwish because I didn\u2019t want to compete with my own band. That is also why \u2018Shine\u2019 is so far away from Nightwish, that was the aim. I always said to Tuomas that I wanted to do an acoustic album; it was something I always longed to do. It was a thing to write off what had happened in my earlier life. When I was young I was bullied in school, I was lonely, didn\u2019t have many friends, all of that came out and also missing my child when I was away. For me it is a diary, it\u2019s my life in the bad things and the good things.\u2019\u2019\n,,I don\u2019t like opera, I prefer rock \u2018n roll''-Anette Olzon\nFor five years you were the voice of Nightwish. Do you feel you were given a fair chance?\n,,No, in retrospective I wasn\u2019t. I always felt like I came in with an impossible task. It was really impossible for me to try and get those fans who liked the Nightwish sound from the beginning to like the new sound. Of course, we also gained a lot of new fans that wouldn\u2019t have listened to the operatic theme. I mean commercially \u2018The Dark Passion\u2019 was a big success so in that respect it went okay, but I think it was an impossible task. And still I have to suffer for it. For me it\u2019s sad because even if I\u2019m not the best singer, I am a natural talent, I haven\u2019t taken many singing lessons but I sing from the heart and do it the best I can. It is really mean to say that I can\u2019t sing, what some people say. That I am a plain pop singer. Of course it hurts but you have to know that people are emotional and Nightwish fans are very emotional and I have to live with it. Now at this time it\u2019s not the same hatred, and although they still say I never fitted in with Nightwish, I think I did a good job. It was hard and it made me lose my self confidence as a singer. When I joined I was very happy to go on stage, I didn\u2019t have any pressure but it built up. The guys in the band supported me but you need the love of the fans. Floor [Jansen] has it easier because she can sing both styles, I took the hard blows. If I talk to people outside the symphonic genre, they like it because it is a bit easier on the ears. Me, I don\u2019t like opera, I prefer rock \u2018n roll but we all have different tastes and they expect a certain sound and I respect that.\u2019\u2019\nBesides a singer you are also a mother and a nurse. To me it seems like a real balancing act.\n,,Sometimes I feel like I take too much on me but I always like to try new things so too often I say \u2018yes\u2019 to offers. It is tiring, last autumn was really hard, I almost hit the wall. It was suffering my school. The study is tough, I didn\u2019t get the results that I wanted in my exams and I want to be perfect in everything which of course is not possible. So this year I\u2019ll try to be a bit more relaxed, look at my health and settle for not always chasing the highest grades. It\u2019s been hard but at the same time it\u2019s fun to try things, haha. Sometimes you need to take a step back. Also when I was out of the band I had to find something else. I was so tired of the music business so that wasn\u2019t an option. I wanted to be a normal person again but then again I must do stuff and sometimes it\u2019s a bit too much.\u2019\u2019\nAre your priorities different now than 10 years ago?\n,,In a way they are. All my life I wanted to be a full time singer, that was a dream since I was a little child and I wanted to become famous, and in a way I\u2019ve been that but I didn\u2019t like everything that came with it. At the same time I\u2019m a bit lazy and very stubborn. I\u2019ve had talks with labels in my twenties where they wanted to decide what I would wear and sing and then that little child comes out and says \u2018no\u2019. I made my life a bit hard but at the same time it made me the person I am now.\u2019\u2019\n,,Kids nowadays want to be famous, it doesn\u2019t matter with what.''-Anette Olzon\nWhat sparked your interest in music?\n,,I come from a musical family, on my mother\u2019s side everybody was involved in music. My mother did it part time. She had a normal job and in the weekends she left and sang. It came naturally for me, I could sing at a very early age. I heard I had a voice and it gave me pleasure when I was having a hard time at school and all I did was going home, crying and singing; it helped me get through life and stopped me from jumping in the ocean. For me it\u2019s something I need to do to feel good. I want to be a singer, I didn\u2019t want the fame. Kids nowadays want to be famous, it doesn\u2019t matter with what. When I was getting famous in Nightwish I didn\u2019t like it when people knew who I was. When they came up to me saying what they thought of me. I still feel kind of embarrassed, awkward. I\u2019m not shy because I like to be on stage. Of course I am a little narcissistic like any singer and artist, but that whole thing about \u2018famous\u2019 is not important to me because with that comes pressure to be perfect all the time. My second son, Nemo, knows he will be amazing later which is cool. We don\u2019t want to suppress him but sometimes we tell him he doesn\u2019t have to be the best in everything but then he says \u2018I cannot sing mum\u2019, but he\u2019s good at piano. I think it is cool he has this confidence.\u2019\u2019\nIs there a difference between Anette on stage and Anette off stage?\n,,For sure, off stage I am a bit more boring, I am a cheerful clown like person and as a child it was my way to be seen. Today I am a bit more anti social, I like to be alone. There still is a bit of this exhibitionist left, but if I go to a job I don\u2019t have to be in the spotlight. On stage you put on a stage persona but it is still a lot about me. Sometimes I dance strangely, I\u2019m not acting, I am very impulsive and don\u2019t think too much on stage.\u2019\u2019\n,,No I\u2019m not. Of course I won\u2019t walk under a ladder and if I see a black cat I have to say \u2018pri-pri- pri\u2019, three times. On stage there is no superstition but I always say a prayer before I go on stage. That\u2019s my thing. If I don\u2019t do it, it might be a bad gig.\u2019\u2019\n,,A lot of people in the music business don\u2019t know how to act and behave in normal life.''-Anette Olzon\nWhat advice would you give to kids who want to become a musician?\n,,First of all, get an education in a regular job if you are not a music or a vocal teacher. Get a degree; you can do music on the side. What I have seen around me is that if you don\u2019t have something to fall back on, you might sell yourself in a shitty business. Get a good education and also a normal job, it is good to know how to behave in a normal world. A lot of people in the music business don\u2019t know how to act and behave in normal life. How to do a job, how to communicate.\u2019\u2019\nWhat are your next plans?\n,,I have a reunion show coming up with Alyson Avenue at a big festival in Malm\u00f6 [Sweden] in June and I received some requests to sing on a few projects. I hope to do something on my own but first I have to finish my university, so I\u2019m studying hard. Should have finished by now but hopefully I\u2019m done next month. Then I will start working as a nurse. In Sweden we have a lack of nurses so it\u2019s no problem to get a job. I have been thinking of quitting so many times, but at the same time I always wanted to have a university degree. I want it for myself and my children. A nurse always has a job.\u2019\u2019\nAll Bandphotos by Patric Ullaeus\nFollow ANETTE OLZON on Facebook and THE DARK ELEMENT on Facebook",

        "raw_content": "https://www.healthcentral.com/article/what-is-vulvodynia\nAs many as 16 percent of women will experience vulvodynia at some point in their lives, according to the National Vulvodynia Association (NVA). Vulvodynia is when you have chronic pain in the vulva (the external female genital area) without an identifiable cause. A diagnosis of vulvodynia requires that the pain lasts three months or longer and is not caused by an infection, skin disorder, or other medical condition, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).\nThe main symptom is pain\nEach person might experience the pain of vulvodynia differently. You may feel sensations of burning, stinging, aching, soreness, itchiness, irritation, or rawness. You might also have throbbing pain or notice swelling. The pain might only be in only one area of vulva or can be in multiple areas.\nThe vulva is made up of three main parts:\nLabia: the inner and outer lips of the vagina\nVestibule: the area surrounding the opening to the vagina and the opening to the urethra\nPerineum: the area between the opening of the vagina and the anus\nWhen pain is in only one of these areas, it is considered localized. When pain occurs throughout the vulva, it is considered generalized.\nThe pain and discomfort can be severe. Sixty percent of women with vulvodynia indicate that it interferes with their enjoyment of life and prevents them from having sex, according to the National Women\u2019s Health Resource Center.\nSome women report symptoms are constant. Others indicate that symptoms only occur after being touched or having pressure put on the vulva. These triggers could include vaginal intercourse, inserting a tampon, having a gynecological exam, sitting for long periods of time, or wearing tight pants, according to the NVA.\nThe exact cause of vulvodynia isn\u2019t understood. But we do know that it isn\u2019t caused by infection, the human papillomavirus (HPV), sexually transmitted diseases, or neurological disorders. It is diagnosed after eliminating any other causes of vulvar pain.\nResearchers believe there are several factors that might contribute to vulvodynia:\nVulvar nerve damage\nWeakness in pelvic floor muscles\nReccurent yeast infections\nPrevious injury or infection of the vulva\nDiagnosis can sometimes be difficult. Some medical professionals aren\u2019t aware of the condition, and women are often reluctant to discuss the symptoms with their doctor. Some women, according to National Women\u2019s Health Resource Center, report not being taken seriously or being told their pain is all in their head. Sixty percent of women report having consulted at least three medical professionals about their pain, with many women never receiving a diagnosis, according to the NVA.\nOnce other causes of the pain are eliminated, your doctor will perform a complete physical evaluation, which might include taking a sample of vaginal discharge and using a cotton swab to touch different parts of your vulva. This cotton swab test is used to determine if the pain is localized or generalized and to measure its severity, according to ACOG.\nThere are several different treatments for vulvodynia, according to ACOG. Your doctor\u2019s recommendations will be based on your symptoms and when symptoms are most likely to occur. Some treatments include:\nLocal anesthetics may be applied directly to the skin. These can be used as a preventative measure (for example, applying them before vaginal intercourse) or can be used for short-term relief when pain is interfering with your daily activities.\nAntidepressants and anti-seizure medications can sometimes help reduce symptoms.\nEstrogen creams may help relieve pain.\nPhysical therapy and trigger point therapy may help relax pelvic floor muscles.\nNerve blocks, where anesthetic drugs are injected into the nerves that are causing pain, may be used.\nCognitive behavioral therapy can sometimes helpful for dealing with chronic pain.\nSurgery to remove painful tissue from the vulva is sometimes used when other treatments have not worked.\nIn addition to medical treatment, there are lifestyle changes you can make to help relieve some of the pain and discomfort, according to the National Institutes of Health:\nWear 100 percent cotton underwear.\nAvoid wearing underwear at night.\nAvoid tight-fitting underwear and clothes.\nClean vulva with water only.\nAvoid vaginal wipes, female deodorants, and bubble baths.\nUse lubricants during vaginal intercourse.\nApply cool gel packs to relieve pain.\nAvoid exercises that put direct pressure on vulva, such as bike riding.\nI Have Vulvodynia \u2014 But It Took Years to Put a Name to My Pain\nBumps on the Vulva or Vagina: Is It Serious?\nVulvar Cancer: The Women's Cancer We Never Hear About\nTags:Symptoms, Treatment, Diagnosis",

        "raw_content": "By D.A. Doddridge & Associates, Inc.\nExpert Website: https://www.dadoddridge.com\nAside from the obvious dangers such as falling and working around heavy machinery, there are other non-direct factors to consider when gauging the safety of residential construction.\nLast week, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) proposed more than $1.5 million in penalties toward a roofing company in Florida, Great White Construction Inc., after OSHA found the company failed to protect its workers from falls.\nIn Boston, OSHA proposed a similar penalty in April after two employees died while working in a trench. OSHA found that the employees lacked safety features, such proper training, and a support structure.[2] In addition, the owner of the company is facing manslaughter charges.\nThese may not be not isolated incidents; some studies suggest there are inherent safety risks built into the residential construction industry. And when it comes to construction and safety \u2013 size can matter. One paper from the OSHA Alliance Program Construction Roundtable found small construction companies face unique hazards.\n\u201cTraining, formal policies, and safety and health procedures may not be put in place because they are perceived as costly, time-consuming, and could affect the contractor bottom-line,\u201d according to the paper. \u201cIn addition, small contractors may be less likely to share best practices and collaborate with similar contractors.\u201d\nOn a similar note, a study from the Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR) cites the need for better safety practices in residential construction. The study found that the there is a general lack of awareness of problems and the perceived high cost associated with residential construction.\nAnd, given the residential construction industry employs some 8 million people, it\u2019s safe to say there is a lot of competition within the industry. Greater competition, according to Occupational Health & Safety Magazine, means meager profit margins and a temptation remove anything non-essential to the job.\n\u201cBusiness owners and managers just can\u2019t see spending money on that safety officer or safety training for the employees when cash is tight and they need to buy materials,\u201d Helen Pieron wrote in her 2010 article.\nAs a result, she writes, safety is often the first thing to get scaled down.\nAccidents happen, but employers \u2013 no matter their size \u2013 are responsible for ensuring the safety of their employees. While the residential industry appears especially vulnerable to safety issues, they can happen anywhere. An experienced construction safety expert with the proper OSHA certifications can help identify and determine proper safety procedures in small construction companies. Most construction accidents end up in court in civil litigation and often times an expert witness qualified to opine on construction safety issues will be engaged, however if proper safety measures were employed in the first place, then a law suit could be avoided along with serious injury suffered by the worker.\nAUTHOR: D.A.

The first production Mustang rolled off the assembly line in Dearborn, Michigan on 9th March 1964 and was introduced to the public at the New York World's Fair on 17th April 1964. It was, and remains, one of the most successful product launches in automotive history. The Mustang sold over one million units in its first 18 months on the market and its legend lives on with revised models still in production today after 50 years. With each revision, the Mustang saw an increase in overall dimensions and in engine power.\nOriginally manufactured in San Diego, this superb Mustang was imported into the UK on 4th December 2014 by the vendor who has thoroughly enjoyed using the vehicle and is only selling her due to lack of suitable storage space. The previous owner was Arnold Marks, a Mustang specialist in Los Angeles, who, together with his team, restored the car to a very high standard to form part of his own collection. Without doubt this is one of the best 1966 Mustang coup\u00e9s we have seen; the Nightmist blue coachwork is a colour that really suits the car and has great depth to the paintwork, the matching blue interior is unmarked and has been restored to a very high standard. This is also a very well sorted example mechanically with a 289 (4735cc) Windsor V8 engine mated to a three speed automatic gearbox. This Mustang really does have to be seen to be fully appreciated and comes supplied with a V5 registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 12th February 2016. With Ford Mustang's in high demand, this stunning coup\u00e9 is sure to attract significant interest.\nLot 308 - 1960 Daimler SP250\nLot 310 - 1986 Porsche 928 S2",

        "title": "HKSTP - Creating HD audio with aerospace technology - X-Spatial",
        "raw_content": "Who says innovation and technology are for young people only? Life experience is a powerful asset for entrepreneurship. With the right idea, even people at retirement age can set our imagination on fire to brighten up the world.\nScience Park company X-Spatial was set up by veteran engineer Daniel Chiu and various experts from the commercial and investment fields. Now chairman and CEO of the company, Daniel spent most of his working life with NASA and multinationals and has made his mark in the world. As he was approaching retirement and indulging his hobby of listening to music, an idea occurred to him. He threw himself into research and development and produced results that have disrupted the global audio-visual entertainment business.\nAudio optimising technology generates fuller sound\nThe company\u2019s core technology is its proprietary \u201c4D Psychoacoustics\u201d audio optimisation technology, WIZOR. According to X-Spatial\u2019s business director Elliott Yuen, it makes sound come alive with remarkable realism and provides a superior audio experience much more powerful than conventional surround-sound. WIZOR can be used in cinemas, theatres, auditoriums and entertainment venues to elevate the audio experience of movies, live musical performances and digital games.\nDaniel is a die-hard audio system enthusiast. He was never quite happy with the quality of so-called 3D audio. After some probing, he found that sound recorded with conventional technology only has two-dimensional acoustic vibration signals. Even top-end sound systems have to rely on having multiple speakers and the listener positioned in the \u201csweet spot\u201d to get the stereo effect. This motivated him to develop an audio optimising technology.\nHe referenced aerospace technology and used signal restructuring, psychoacoustic and perception enhancement to develop WIZOR, which produces high-fidelity audio. Signal restructuring involves studying the characteristics of audio signals transmitted through different media. The findings are used to build a data bank and algorithms for restoring 2D audio sources to the original 3D sound as if in a live setting. Psychoacoustic works on the principle of sound wave transmission. Based on the positions of specific signals and the spectrum of various sounding objects, the human brain is guided to perceive various sound fields and believe it is hearing 3-dimensional surround sound. Perception enhancement works on the parts of the brain that are sensitive to music and stimulate those parts with audio signals to enhance audio empathy.\nCurating a range of products and services\nElliott says X-Spatial has developed a range of WIZOR products and services, from optimising audio for cinemas to supporting audio enhancement in post-production for movie producers, as well as optimising sound effects, audio-visual programmes and music streamed or downloaded online.\nReaching out to mainland and overseas markets\nAs the plug-and-play WIZOR performs well and is widely compatible with other sound systems, X-Spatial\u2019s business is quickly taking off in the US, India, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Elliott says the mainland market has been in the company\u2019s crosshair in recent years, and more than 50 cinema chains have signed on to have the WIZOR system installed in more than 500 cinemas. The system has also been adopted in Hong Kong cinemas. It is actively negotiating with multiple parties to bring the sound system to all Hong Kong movie houses.\nHe anticipates the system will be used in some 1,000 to 1,500 cinemas in mainland China during 2018. Other than cinemas, about 10 movies produced in different parts of the world have used X-Spatial solutions to optimise sound effects in post-production, and that number is expected to increase to 50 for the whole year. As well, the sound technology is being used for TV productions and remastering old movies.\nX-Spatial has other grand plans too. Elliott thinks the 3D and AR markets present great potential. Earlier, a Japanese TV show drew attention when it used 3D projection to show a concert by late singer Teresa Teng, and 3D sound played a big part in the show. The company is talking to various digital product manufacturers for collaboration to venture into sound systems for homes and cars as well as portable speakers. In the social media market, X-Spatial\u2019s WIZOR technology has been adopted by HMV to enhance the sound effects of certain AV content. The company has also connected with global entertainment giants such as Netflix and Spotify. More eye-catching moves are in the offing.\nHKSTP provides support in four ways\nX-Spatial has been based at Science Park for more than two years. Elliott thinks that being a HKSTP partner company has brought benefits in four areas. First, it got in touch with investors from different countries through investment promotion, which helps the company in future financing initiatives. Second, the company can share insights with counterparts and even form partnerships to expand business networks. Third, it has gained exposure for its products and technology \u2013 X-Spatial\u2019s WIZOR system is used with the big screen in Science Park\u2019s Core Building. Lastly, it has received ample support for business development, such as expanding its office space flexibly.\nThe company has more than 40 employees working on R&D of audio optimisation algorithms and various WIZOR applications. Elliott hopes to continue collaboration with HKSTP to tackle issues with resources, market expansion and R&D, and help the sound specialists reach even higher notes.\nElliott gives a discourse on WIZOR technology applications.\nX-Spatial\u2019s sound enhancement installation WizProX can be used with pre-existing audio systems to quickly enhance sound effects in cinemas.\nWIZOR has been used to enhance sound effects in movie productions in mainland China and the West.\nTags: # Electronics ,\t# Robotics",

        "raw_content": "The biology department is proud of the diversity and quality of opportunities for student research.\nSince Holy Cross is an undergraduate institution, students do not compete with graduate students for equipment and guidance from their advising professors. Faculty are committed both to excellence in teaching and to being active scholars who train undergraduates in the ideas, methods, and ethics of scientific research.\nIn recent years, typically 20 to 25 students have been actively engaged in supervised independent research projects spanning biology. Examples include:\nstudies of the mechanisms of mutagenesis\ncell-to-cell communication in cultured cell lines\ninvestigations into ion channel expression\nfunctions of Natural Killer Cells in the immune system and the phenomenon of autoimmunity\npattern expression during the process of development\ninvestigations of how thermophilic bacteria are able to move between widely dispersed habitats\nIn the course of their work they have access to modern equipment that is appropriate to their area of research and is similar to what is found at first-rate research institutions and in industry.\nStudents are introduced to modern research techniques in course labs.\nSupervised research opportunities are available under a number of different auspices. For instance, students may informally and for no credit ask to observe or to work in a faculty member's lab, in part to see if he or she would enjoy a more extensive exposure to research. However, more commonly students apply to specific programs, including independent student research opportunities at Holy Cross and the Summer Research Program at Holy Cross and other institutions (see below for more information on each). Other opportunities include the College Honors Program and the College Fenwick Scholar Program.\nAn Introduction to Research Projects in Class Labs\nA major educational goal of the biology department is to introduce undergraduates to the excitement and methods of scientific research. All students are exposed to modern research techniques in course labs.\nCourses as diverse as Cell Biology, Aquatic Ecology and Physiology feature multi-week supervised projects that students design and execute with guidance from their instructors. After completing and analyzing their work, the results are often reported to the other members of the class as if it were a scientific meeting.\nIn the late spring a daylong research symposium is held in which undergraduate research students have the opportunity to present their results in the form of poster or short talks. For some the opportunity is a requirement of their research program; for all it is a chance to summarize their experiences and learn those of others. Usually there is a luncheon for all participants. There is a similar symposium in the fall when students who did research over the summer present their results.\nSummer and Post-Graduate Research Opportunities\nIndependent Student Research",

        "raw_content": "Peter Kusch\nWELCOME TO HomeGuy.ca!\nYou won\u2019t find a huge number of listings, a team of realtors, or cryptic awards here. Instead, you\u2019ll meet a hard working Realtor\u00ae who is focused on providing classic excellent service.\nI never have too many listings \u2013 my selling effort is not diverted by a large inventory. I\u2019ve never tried to represent \u201ctoo many\u201d clients at one time. Additional listings may represent additional commissions for an agent, but they also place greater claims on the agent\u2019s time and energy, which in turn can have adverse sales performance consequences for their clients. The dilution of agent effort and agency costs by very large numbers of listings adversely affects home prices and time on the market.\nI personally view properties with buyers and never delegate them to a \u201cjunior agent\u201d, a very common situation purchasers can encounter while working with a real estate team. The buyers get my entire 19-year real estate experience. In addition, working personally with buyers gives me an excellent insight into the market. As opposed to the \u201clisting agents\u201d I actually view properties and know which ones are selling.\nIn summary, you wouldn\u2019t get a flashy agent who is the leader of a team consisting of numerous rookies. You wouldn\u2019t get a Realtor\u00ae who takes all listings no matter the asking price. Instead, you will get a Realtor\u00ae who is devoted to his client\u2019s needs and who has the time to personally deal with every listing. Over the course of my 19 years of real estate experience, I have learned that glossy magazines and state of the art marketing don\u2019t sell houses. They promote the Realtor\u00ae. Instead, the crucial factors are professionally done photos, attractive description of the property and, most importantly, the correct asking price. When dealing with clients I am honest and straightforward in my assessments. I\u2019ve never told my clients what they want to hear. I\u2019m not an entertainer. In fact, I can be boring sometimes. However, buying or selling a house is one of life\u2019s biggest and most important transactions, and I believe that you deserve to deal with a Realtor\u00ae who will utilize years of real estate experience and intimate familiarity with the housing market, rather than a Realtor\u00ae who will tell you what you want to hear and to delegate you to an inexperienced \u201cjunior agent\u201d.\nIf all of the above speaks to you in a positive way, please interview me. If we\u2019re not a match you can always say \u201cNO\u201d to me.\n206, 2411 4 St NW Calgary, AB T2M 2Z8\nPhone: (403) 990-7990 Mobile: 403-990-7990\nPoint2 Homes in Calgary\n\u00a92003-2019 RE/MAX Real Estate (Central)",

She responded that she is interested in technology, community engagement, strategic planning and other things which aren\u2019t offered at the Michigan level.\n\u201cThis is a much broader training,\u201d Ladner said.\nCouncilwoman Maggie Kurtzweil voiced her support for Ladner\u2019s attendance.\n\u201cI think that we are moving the city forward,\u201d Kurtzweil said. \u201cWe are looking at issues which are a little more regional.\u201d\nShe added that it was a way to look at the models for problem solving used throughout the country. \u201cMy personal opinion is as long as it is under $5,000, I really don\u2019t care if you go once a year,\u201d Kurtzweil said.\nShe pointed out a session on strategic planning, \u201cWe are changing our culture in some aspects.\u201d Kurtzweil said.\u201cYou are only going to get those innovative ideas from people in Oregon, Washington, etc. This provides you with greater depth.\u201d\nOther council members area looking for different ways to \u201cdo more with less.\u201d\nCouncilman Joe Ryzyi was also interested in learning about more ways to prevent \u201cblight.\u201d\nIn South Lyon, it can mean having a less than attractive or cared for storefront appearance downtown, he said.\nOnce Ladner returns, the council wants feedback on what she learned.\n\u201cIf you are going to go, you definitely have my vote,\u201d Councilwoman Mary Dedakis said. She, like others, is looking for a short report from Ladner about what takes place.\nKurtzweil said it is important to keep South Lyon\u2019s issues \u201con the radar\u201d as it looks for solutions. \u201cMy expectation level is extremely high,\u201d she said.\nThe conference falls within the $5,000 limit the city allows Ladner for professional development.\nAnd just as the city tries to conserve its resources, Ladner said that she will try to find a roommate to share the cost of lodging, another way to keep costs down\nThe final cost for attendance is yet to be determined, which is why Ladner made the request to council months in advance.\nRegistration for the conference began June 2. This includes the discounted early bird conference rate, the ability to purchase flights far enough in advance to significantly decrease the cost as well as to register for conference hotels as soon as they become available with the ability to seek out a cost share in the hotel by sharing the room, Ladner said.\n\u201cThe estimated flight costs for me to book round trip when I have looked recently are approximately $275, including fees.\u201d Ladner said. \u201cThe hotel is approximately $650 with all taxes and fees if not split with another attendee, and the conference registration will be approximately $655, a savings of $125 from the regular registration rate.\u201d\nThere may be some incidental expenses such as transportation from the airport to the conference and back to the airport and a few meals although most are included with the conference so Ladner estimates the entire business trip will run a little less than $1,600.\nRead or Share this story: https://www.hometownlife.com/story/news/local/south-lyon/2016/06/07/city-manager-seeks-new-ideas-national-conference/85542328/",

Under this program, defendants are monitored until their hearing.\nIf you were released on bail or bond as part of the release services program and failed to appear in court, you could face misdemeanor FTA charges. A conviction can result in 90 days in prison and a fine of up to $500.\nMissed Court Date for Traffic Violation\nFailure to appear in traffic court following a traffic violation can result in the suspension of your driver\u2019s license. If you failed to appear for trial, most likely your license has already been suspended. Driving with a suspended license is a criminal offense and can result in fines and/or jail time.\nFailing to Appear for Jury Duty\nUnder Maryland Courts and Judicial Proceedings Code. Ann. \u00a7 8-504, missing jury duty can result in up to 60 days in prison and a fine of up to $1,000. To avoid these penalties, you may be required to show good cause for missing the intended court date.\nDefenses for FTA Charges\nMotion to Recall Bench Warrant\nIf you failed to appear in court and have a bench warrant for your arrest, an experienced criminal defense attorney can file a motion to recall the warrant. This motion can persuade a judge to remove or \u201cquash\u201d the warrant and set a new court date.\nDemonstrate Intent\nIf you accidentally missed jury duty, or any court appearance, a skilled Maryland defense attorney can demonstrate that you did not intentionally miss your court date. By explaining the circumstances around the missed appearance, a lawyer can argue that you intended to appear. If this is successful, your charges may be dropped and a new court date assigned.\nIf you are facing FTA charges, the attorneys at Houlon Berman can help.

        "title": "Learning About Debt Settlement Solutions In Clinton, Mississippi",
        "raw_content": "Seeking The Ideal Debt Settlement Solutions In Clinton, Mississippi\nHave you been struggling with financial debt? Do you find yourself unclear about what you should do next? Struggling with balancing the household budget as your credit card bills take such a substantial portion out of your monthly income? It may be the perfect time to consider a debt settlement service in Clinton, Mississippi.\nA good choice for consumers who are confronting inconceivable levels of consumer debt is often debt settlement programs.\nDebt settlement organizations are juggling more clients than ever because more and more people have got credit card, education, business loan, and medical debt than ever. You will even find many who are turned down because their earnings are far too modest in comparison to the level of consumer debt that they need to face.\nDetermined by your own circumstances, you may find that the smartest choice is to work with a debt settlement service. In most cases, people who have financial debt between $10,000 to $100,000+ are ideal candidates with this strategy. Debt might be due to housing costs, college loans, or credit cards.\nWhat Can Settling Debt Accomplish For Your Situation?\nYou may be asking yourself exactly why a debt settlement program has become a popular solution for debt help. The opportunity to keep from consumer bankruptcy is a substantial factor. Bankruptcy is a resolution to debt, but it can affect you forever. Most people will not want that permanent step on their report for the remainder of their life. The bankruptcy is going to remain on your credit report for 10 years, but plenty of credit, employment, and loan applications inquire if you've filed consumer bankruptcy. You should not have to concern yourself with getting turned down because you declared bankruptcy at one time in your past. Being untruthful concerning past bankruptcy might sound like the best realistic strategy for many, but this is fraud. If you ever lie, you will go to jail, lose your livelihood, and experience many other repercussions.\nIf you settle debt with the collectors, you can evade a bankruptcy proceeding. For many of us, debt settlement is a last measure. The consequences of a bankruptcy are really significantly more severe than deciding to work with a debt settlement company.\nYou wouldn't want anyone to look at your credit profile and discover that you've had trouble with consumer debt, but debt settlement will look better than personal bankruptcy. You also only have to worry about it staying there for seven years. There isn't any public record of dealing with a debt settlement organization, and so once it comes off your credit profile, no one is ever going to know you used a debt settlement service.\nSome believe settling debt cheats creditors out of their due funds, yet this is not really the intent. This process is meant for people who are unable to pay back what they owe. It should only be used as a last resort if other possibilities aren't helpful. If you genuinely are unable to pay off the debt, debt settlement brings relief. It is also more than likely you've repaid beyond whatever you used in fees and interest.\nLooking at the differences between bankruptcy and debt settlement, creditors are aware that they don't receive much if you choose Chapter 13. With bankruptcy filing, they are likely to receive absolutely nothing. This truth is the primary reason that plenty of creditors are more likely to accept debt settlements.\nThis can be a means to repay personal debt in much less time. Paying debt may take 2 to 4 years with a great debt settlement plan. However, it is sometimes a possibility to do it inside of a year. You know that paying off financial debt is a significantly lengthier approach with no debt settlement program, and this already is not an option . With other debt relief options, like personal bankruptcy, debt consolidation, and consumer credit counseling, it takes 3 to 5 years.\nDebt settlement protects your credit rating and good reputation from the impact of personal bankruptcy. Your debt settlement approach will not be a question of public record. Anybody that truly wants to find out is going to learn about your bankruptcy proceedings though. The public has access to consumer bankruptcy information by using federal bankruptcy courts or, to allow it to be a little simpler, with internet subscription services. Although a debt settlement program will usually appear on your credit reports, it won't decrease your overall credit score as a bankruptcy filing might.\nYour charge cards will still be available. You'll be able to continue utilizing your credit cards, except in cases where the debt settlement contract clearly bars you from doing this. This way you can still depend upon your credit card for emergencies. But, you can't be authorized for a new card or continue making use of the ones you've got if you happen to owe lots of money. The debt settlement purpose might be lost if the charge cards are being used.\nImprove your ability to manage the debt. When your consumer debt has been settled, tracking various repayments to multiple creditors at ranging rates of interest won't be a problem. One single payment per month is all you'll have to worry about.\nEnjoy more affordable payments and interest rate. By using debt settlement programs, you will have lower payments and interest rates. That means that you've got more money in your pocket each month.\nA debt settlement program has a number of damaging consequences. There is no 100% guarantee that creditors will accept settlement offers, plus your credit will suffer during that time period, and you might owe taxes on the forgiven debt. Paying off all of your debt without debt settlement programs, if you're able to, is smoother than using a debt settlement program. Of course, if you can't pay off what you owe on your own, it can still protect you from bankruptcy. Just like with any sort of solution for consumer debt termination, you should examine the merits of a debt settlement program against the downsides. debt\nProperty loss is indeed a factor. A lot of people choose to use property, like a house or a car, as collateral for the debt settlement programs loan. When you do that, you risk the loss of the collateral if you do not pay up promptly. Collateral is often required to get the loan. After all, you will not be a trustworthy creditor, and they will want some kind of certainty that they'll be compensated should you go into default or don't pay them.\nYou will need to know about buried costs. If you aren't careful, you may wind up paying much more with a debt settlement loan, in spite of the reduced monthly payments and interest rates. Typically, debt settlement loans help you get a cheaper interest rate and payment in return for prolonging the payment period. If you are indebted for a longer period of time, you can wind up paying more money through a lengthier period of time.\nThere will be taxation-associated drawbacks to bear in mind. The Internal Revenue Service might consider the cancelled debts to be taxed income. Contingent on your position, you may need to pay taxes on it. If the credit card providers and collectors submit the cancelled debt, it's going to be regarded as taxable income.\nA debt settlement solution may cost you 10-20% of the balance you come to them with, payable over the course of twelve months or so, plus a small application fee. You could have to pay about two thousand dollars on $20K of consumer debt. Reducing your consumer debt by 50% makes it well worth the price. Look at the math for a minute.\nWhenever you get in touch with a debt settlement agency and start on a plan, the organization will contact your creditors on your behalf. The best thing for you is lots of collectors agree to settle for 50 % of the total amount. The average amount is 60%, though the rate could fall anywhere between 40-60%. Your creditors are prompted to accept these deals since they understand that they won't get anything without the settlement company's assistance. Bankruptcy is a real hazard for anyone who is making use of a debt settlement service. It's not easy for creditors and banks to tell what is going to come about. They already know that many people deal with substantial challenges that prevent them from paying for their expenses. They also know it's highly improbable for them to get anything if they do not consent to a deal.\nNobody should take the huge step of settlement without some serious contemplation. You are going to suffer through the effect on your credit and a decreased chance of getting new loans and credit.\nIf the only option is going bankrupt, it could be a smart idea to decide on a debt settlement agency, yet it undoubtedly shouldn't be the first course of action. You should look into other available options before you can choose something as extreme as a debt settlement program. It is not just an easy way of avoiding paying your debts. It is for those who are out of alternatives.\nExcellence, price range, and reputation are the greatest factors between debt settlement agencies. A service that stands out in these three aspects is a good one to deal with.\nDo You Know The Key Advantages of Debt Settlement?\nThough it will hurt your credit score temporarily to undertake a debt settlement, it is going to turn out better for the score in the long term when you pay back all of your financial debt. This can take under twelve months, as it will for around a quarter of debt settlement clients. The majority can accomplish this within two or three years. Accumulating funds is a substantial process. You should have routine contact from your debt settlement agency. Many will touch base every month, even when it's not needed. With a good settlement service, you are not dealing with debt on your own.\nHow To Choose The Ideal Clinton, Mississippi Debt Settlement Service For You\nNever decide upon any sort of debt relief solution without checking with the Attorney General and customer protection agent where you live. They should be in a position to inform you if any complaints have been submitted with the service.\nDefinitely research the organization. Learn what sort of service the organization can provide, what it charges, and the length of time it's going to call for to have the effects you want. Don't sign on with an organization that needs a substantial up front cost, and pay attention to what the debt settlement service will cost you for their services.\nIf possible, look for a debt settlement agency which provides assistance in person. You'll be better off with a company that offers internet support, phone service, and local service, rather than one with only a couple of these solutions. It will help to talk to an actual person in person as opposed to dealing with a phone adviser.\nDon't think that a company is free, inexpensive, or even legitimate because it might include a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153non-profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d status. A suspicious provider could try to hide that they charge service fees that are extremely high.\nWhen you focus a list of options, search for reviews.\nhttp://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/mississippi/cleveland/index.html http://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/mississippi/coffeeville/index.html",

        "raw_content": "Flawed math behind Burmese 'democracy'\nPublished in Asia Times Online\nSenior Researcher, Asia Division DSMathiesonHRW\nWhat if you held an election and you weren't sure how many people showed up at the polls? To establish voting patterns and trends, one needs to have an accurate estimate of the population, clearly demarcated electorates and the eligible voters contained therein, and a system of tallying votes. It is not clear how closely these prerequisites were observed ahead of the November 7, 2010, vote in Burma* when population estimates in the country vary widely.\nBurma has not had an effective nationwide census for decades. Previous ones took place during British colonial rule in 1931, under the post war social democratic government in 1953, and by the socialist government in 1983. The last official census in 1983 calculated the population to be 35.4 million, despite that count not being able to access considerable parts of the country due to civil war. But what is Burma's population now, and how did authorities count the votes on November 7, 2010?\nPopulation estimates between 2008 and 2010 vary from 44.2 million in 2009 according to the United Nations, based on Ministry of Home Affairs figures, to 59.1 million in 2010 according to the government's Ministry of Immigration and Population estimates. The figures stem from a survey of some kind conducted from 2007 in cooperation with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) that estimated the population growth rate at 2.02% annually. From the lowest to highest figures over a two to three year period, there is a 15 million people differential in Burma government, UN and other international organizations' estimates.\nOther estimates are as widely divergent. The Rangoon-based UN agency, the Myanmar Information Management Unit (MIMU), released a map in 2009 with a breakdown of the population of all of Burma's 14 administrative units (states and divisions/regions) and the total population was 44.2 million based on ministry of home affairs figures. The 2009 Lonely Planet tourist guide claimed the population was 47.4 million. The US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) estimates the population to be 48.1 million.\nMany newspapers reporting on last year's elections in the past several months have variously estimated the population at 50, 51, 52, 54 or 57 million, all of the estimates likely based on Internet searches through the disparate figures on a variety of websites. According to data compiled by the United Nations Millennium Development Goals in 2008, the 2010 figure for Burma was projected at 50,495,000. In the 2008 Statistical Yearbook of Burma's Ministry of National Planning and Economic Development, the population figure was listed at 57,504,000.\nSo why the enormous fluctuation?\nTo understand the disparities in counting Burma's population, one has to know that estimating Burma's population is predominantly part of the system of authoritarian control. To monitor society, authorities have long employed a Draconian system of household registration.\nEvery house must have a list of inhabitants that are regularly reported to local authorities, at the suburb (or in Burma, the ward), or village level. Visitors are either denied permission to stay overnight or must be registered with the authorities. It is prohibited for foreigners to stay overnight in a private Burmese home and all hotel registration lists are reported daily to local police and immigration authorities.\nThis system of control is vertically integrated. Regular population numbers of small communities are relayed up to the next stage of monitoring control: from village to village tract, next to township, then to state or region level, and ultimately to national authorities. This is not unique to authoritarian systems but in practice it grants latitude to local authorities to act in any way to ensure that good news flows up.\nIn a country such as Burma, where avoiding the attention of authorities is a basic survival strategy, compliance by officials and citizens to accord with expectations is often the norm - despite questions of veracity or efficiency of the gathered information. Supplying positive news is an essential measure of loyalty in repressive states.\nFor example, the swift counting of the vote at the 2008 constitutional referendum - not an arduous task in a simple yes or no vote but still a challenge considering Burma's lack of development and infrastructure - was reached within a couple of weeks and publicly announced down to the individual vote: a 92% approval of the constitution with a 98% voter turnout. It was clear that local authorities knew they must deliver positive, even if false, news to the next layer of control all the way up to central authorities in Naypyidaw.\nMost observers agree that Burma's electoral process in 2010 was one gigantic fix to ensure continued military dominance: Electoral laws were rigged and interpreted by a pro-military Electoral Commission; 2,200 political prisoners, including many opposition party leaders, were barred from contesting the polls; and the military's Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP), with 18 million nominal members and a nationwide structure of offices and financial assets, ensured that smaller upstart parties were at a competitive disadvantage.\nOn voting day, November 7, widespread irregularities were reported, including the use of advance voting ballots to swing seats in favor of the USDP during the closing stages of counting ballots. The USDP won more than 77% of the seats in the two national level parliaments and a clear majority in the 14 regional and state based assemblies. The Electoral Commission announced that 22 million of 29 million eligible voters cast ballots, equating to a turn-out of around 75%-80%.\nInconvenient intervening variables\nFew analyses of the Burma population include demographic factors that challenge the prevailing official assessment: displacement through conflict and development projects, migration to neighboring countries or urban areas inside the country, statelessness of the Rohingya Muslim minority, hinterland hill-tribes, and other marginalized populations, and haphazard or incomplete citizenship registration.\nBurma is an extremely poor country sharing rugged and underdeveloped borderlands with Bangladesh, China, India, Laos and Thailand, simmering insurgent conflicts in its especially eastern borderlands, and a bewildering ethno-linguistic patchwork of peoples that official estimates put at 135 \"national race groups\". The following is a short list of inconvenient intervening variables that any accurate assessment of Burma's demographics must consider:\nInternal displacement. For more than a decade, there has been a major problem of conflict and development induced displacement in eastern Burma. The annual survey of the Thailand-Burma Border Consortium (TBBC), an aid group that works with refugees, estimated 460,000 civilians were internally displaced in Burma in 2010 in a mixture of nominally government controlled areas, ceasefire militia enclaves and free-fire zones contested by state and anti-state forces.\nThese populations are a mix of recognized citizens of Burma and those whose births were not officially registered but have spent most of their lives under insurgent administration. Voting on November 7 was not held in several townships in border areas, such as the Wa special region in the north, and parts of the country where conflict is still raging in the Karen and Shan states.\nAdd to this tens of thousands of hill-tribe minorities, including Lahu, Akha, Palaung and others, especially in the northern states, who live on the fringes of state control and have never been officially counted. Ongoing conflict, or tensions between state forces and insurgents in border areas, meant that voting did not take place in parts of northern Shan State and eastern Burma, affecting parts of 32 townships (constituencies) and an estimated 350,000 people in total.\nRefugees. There are more than 140,000 documented refugees in nine (unofficially) recognized camps in Thailand. These numbers have stayed largely constant since 1984 when the first major waves of refugees started to cross. More than 60,000 refugees have been resettled to third countries from these camps since 2005.\nThe ethnic Shan have only one very small recognized camp because most who have fled across the Thai border enter the migrant worker population. They easily number in the tens of thousands. India has approximately 50,000 ethnic Chin refugees in Mizoram and several thousand more in Delhi. Refugees also travel to Malaysia where some estimate 30,000-50,000 have fled to either work or apply for refugee status. Some refugees, however, retain their citizenship.\nThe Rohingya Muslim minority. Burma's most persecuted ethno-religious minority, the estimated one million Rohingya, have been the target of both large scale brutal military expulsions into Bangladesh (in 1978 and 1991) and denied citizenship and basic rights for three decades. Many Rohingya were paradoxically granted voting rights in 2008 and 2010 through the issuance of temporary ID cards and Rohingya political parties were permitted to contest the election (they were trounced).\nMilitary-aligned Rohingya businessmen were permitted to contest and win seats through the USDP. An estimated 250,000 Rohingya live as refugees or as undocumented migrants in Bangladesh, while tens of thousands more work as migrant laborers in the Middle East and Pakistan.\nChinese migration to northern Myanmar. Chinese migration to Burma has demonstrably increased since the early 1990s, especially to Burma's second largest city, Mandalay.\nMany Chinese migrants purchase citizenship, using business contacts with officials to secure it, while others are temporary laborers, such as the tens of thousands of road builders and dam construction workers now in Kachin State. There are no hard official figures on the size of this migration, but the presence of recent Chinese immigrants in northern Burma is clear to visitors and the source of periodic tension between ethnic Burmese and the new arrivals.\nMigrant workers. Burma laborers leave their country in massive numbers, some for short-term work, others for many years. The standard estimate for Burma migrant workers in Thailand is two million. But in the absence of a fully functioning registration system, official Thai figures are much lower. In lesser numbers migrant workers from Burma also travel to Malaysia and Singapore, where working conditions are often marginally better.\nSome of these workers were permitted to vote in last year's elections, if they were legally recognized as migrant workers, and cast advance ballots at Burma embassies. Some migrant workers refused to vote, fearing that officials would be able to extort money from them or their families back in Burma if they engaged with embassy officials.\nStruck off household lists. Many people, especially Rohingya, who leave Burma because of persecution or for work are often struck off household registration lists because they have left the country illegally.\nMany migrant workers leave their official ID cards inside Burma with their parents or family members because it is illegal to take the card outside of the country. Dissidents and others who have illegally left the country for clandestine training or work are regularly charged with breaches of the migration act and sentenced to long prison terms upon their return.\nInternal labor migration. It became clear after 2008's Cyclone Nargis disaster that large numbers of landless laborers who had been working in the Irrawaddy Delta and may not have ever been counted either as temporary residents or as residents were amongst the official dead or missing count of 140,000.\nThe experience of the 2008 referendum, held soon after the disaster, is instructive in other ways. When Human Rights Watch interviewed survivors of the cyclone from 2008-2010, researchers encountered many who said they were not included in village household lists because of their isolated location.\nMany said they were never given the opportunity to cast votes as local authorities completed their ballots for them. There are many other variables of transmigration not taken into account in official figures: how many people in Burma move within the country for work but fail to register with the authorities?\nAuthoritarian 'truth'. In his new book, Proofiness: The Dark Arts of Mathematical Deception, which details how governments and corporations bandy around deceitful figures, Charles Seife writes, \"In skillful hands, phony data, bogus statistics, and bad mathematics can make the most fanciful idea, the most outrageous falsehood seem true. They can be used to bludgeon enemies, to destroy critics, and to squelch debate.\"\nThe obsession with numerical detail by Burma's authoritarian system is a prime example of what Seife calls \"disestimation\": granting credibility to a figure that is derived with too much uncertainty. Accurately estimating Burma's population is not only crucial for conducting elections - and one hopes that a genuinely free and fair election will take place one day in the country - but it is also crucial for increasing development projects and the disbursal of humanitarian assistance.\nWhat Burma's new parliament, a reshuffled version of the former ruling military council, needs to give priority to in 2011 are credible population statistics that serve the needs of local development in health, education, land management, and economic reforms, including urgently needed micro-financing projects. These fundamentals have been lost in the haze of a system of control and the various responses by communities to survive under continued military rule (with a thin civilian facade for now).\nIf the United Nations system bandies around widely divergent figures, how will they coordinate with the national authorities and local communities to reach those most in need? Any agenda for international engagement with Burma should include reconciling the variables of communities that are not included on official registers and give more consideration to people who are used by the state when it suits them, and ignored when it doesn't.\nDavid Scott Mathieson is a senior researcher in the Asia Division of Human Rights Watch.\n[*Note: All references to \"Myanmar\" in the original article as published on the Asia Times website have been changed to \"Burma\" in this posting. Human Rights Watch continues to call the country Burma because we believe that the official name change in 1989 was imposed by an illegitimate military regime. The name Myanmar is one version of saying the countries name in Burmese, and is accepted by the United Nations and many governments.

Before you start your weekend, won't you please consider making a small donation to support Reba and her puppies? It's easy, just click here!\nOn August 21st, two German Shepherd mixes, one male and one female, were brought to the Humane Society of Ventura County after being found wandering in an unincorporated area of the Ojai Valley. A kind citizen, concerned for their wellbeing, picked them up and brought them to the shelter for safety. The dogs, now named Travis and Reba, were sadly never claimed, and anyone passing their kennels could see confusion behind their kind eyes.\nIt wasn\u2019t long before it became apparent that Reba was expecting and it is likely Travis is the father. Staff prepared a quiet room with all the necessary amenities for Reba to give birth and early in the morning on Tuesday, September 13th, she delivered 9 beautiful pups. The puppies are off to a good start and Reba is a natural mother. Reba is one of the fortunate expecting dogs who were found and taken to a safe place before giving birth. Without the kind hearts of our community and caring shelters such as the Humane Society of Ventura county to take them in, countless animals would be born into a life of hardship with no home to call their own.\nUnfortunately, stories such as this are a regular occurrence at rescues and shelters nationwide. Contrary to popular belief, there is no \"peak puppy season\" and most female dogs will usually enter their heat cycle twice a year regardless of the season. This means that all year long rescues and shelters may receive expecting or nursing animals who need their help. Most of these animals have been abandoned by irresponsible owners during one of the most vulnerable stages of their life. This is where you step in! With your kind contributions the Humane Society of Ventura County is able to care for animals when they need us the most. Won't you please consider making a small donation to help support Reba and her pups? Every penny counts!\nCLICK HERE to support Reba and her pups!\n*Please note if we receive more money than is needed to cover the care the donations will roll over into a fund for other animals requiring medical attention.",

I am very much looking forward to the minute when I will be able to hug my close ones and personally shake hands with all my friends and associates.\nI am constantly thinking of those who continue to remain imprisoned.\nMy special thanks is to Mr. Hans-Dietrich Genscher for his personal participation in my fate.\nFirst of all I am going to repay my debt to my parents, my wife and my children, and I am very much looking forward to meeting them.\nI will welcome the opportunity to celebrate this upcoming holiday season with my family. I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!\nAs reported by Forbes contributor Paul Roderick Gregory, the pardons were likely a move to placate world leaders including U.S. President Barack Obama and Germany\u2019s Chancellor Angela Merkel who are refusing to attend the upcoming Sochi Olympics.\nOnce the richest person in Russia, worth $15 billion and ranked no. 15 in the world, the former head of Yukos Oil had been behind bars since 2003. That\u2019s when he and his business partner Platon Lebedev were arrested and later convicted on fraud charges and tax evasion. They were convicted a second time in December 2010, just before they were due to be released, of embezzling more than 200 million tons of oil and laundering the proceeds, adding onto their time in jail.\nMany believed that Putin and his supporters orchestrated the rulings to keep Khodorkovsky, a potential political foe, locked up. After all, the two verdicts appeared to contradict one another: how could he evade taxes on stolen money. \u201cThe absurdity of the charge and the verdict is so obvious that I am not going to delay your attention on it for long,\u201d Khodorkovsky said at the time. He was due to be released next August, but only recently there were more reports in Moscow that investigators were preparing a third court case against him.\nFollow me on Twitter, email me or anonymously contact me or send me tips.",

        "raw_content": "Recent Rains In Atacama Desert Caused The Death Of Microbes, Study Finds\nCredit: Carlos Gonz\u00e1lez Silva\nThe never-before-seen rainfall triggered enormous devastation in the microbial species that lived in the driest and oldest desert.\nLife as we know it needs water to survive and thrive. But scientists have observed something unusual in one of the driest places on Earth. When rain fell on the arid Atacama Desert, it brought devastation.\nAtacama Desert, located in northern Chile, is the driest desert on Earth and only the toughest microbes can survive there. Its hyper arid core has not received any rain during the past 500 years. When the desert finally experienced rainfall three years ago, it caused the extinction of most of the microbes that had lived there.\n\u201cOur group has discovered that, contrary to what could be expected intuitively, the never-before-seen rainfall has not triggered a flowering of life in Atacama, but instead, the rains have caused enormous devastation in the microbial species that inhabited the region before the heavy precipitations,\u201d said co-author Alberto Fairen from Cornell University.\n\u201cOur work shows that high rainfall has caused the massive extinction of most indigenous microbial species. The extinction range reaches 85 percent, as a result of the osmotic stress that has caused the sudden abundance of water: The autochthonous microorganisms, which were perfectly adapted to thrive under conditions of extreme dryness and had strategies optimized for the extraction of the scarce humidity of their environment, have been unable to adapt to the new conditions of sudden flooding and have died from excess water.\u201d\nAtacama Desert was originally inhabited by 16 different microbial species. Only two to four species remained alive after it encountered rain.\n\u201cThe extinction event was massive,\u201d said Fairen. \u201cOur results show for the first time that providing suddenly large amounts of water to microorganisms \u2013 exquisitely adapted to extract meager and elusive moisture from the most hyperdry environments \u2013 will kill them from osmotic shock.\u201d\nThe results also have implications for understanding the microbiology of extremely arid environments such as Red Planet. Atacama Desert is one of the Earth's places that has remarkably similar environment to that of Mars.\n\u201cMars had a first period, the Noachian (between 4.5 and 3.5 billion years ago), in which there was a lot of water on its surface,\" said Fair\u00e9n \"Therefore, our Atacama study suggests that the recurrence of liquid water on Mars could have contributed to the disappearance of Martian life, if it ever existed, instead of representing an opportunity for resilient microbiota to bloom again.\u201d",

John Barrett III nominated Shine Wire.\nHouse Speaker Robert DeLeo, Senate President Karen Spilka, and Secretary of Housing and Economic Development Jay Ash spoke at the event.

While several incidents of cyber-heists are reported every other day, a new one has exposed millions of accounts from popular websites people have popularly used in their life.\nAccording to The Register, sensitive information from 617 million accounts sourced from 16 websites has been dumped on the dark web for anyone with the financial means to grab. The affected websites include some of the popular ones such as Dubsmash, MyFitnessPal, ShareThis, 500px and others.\nDubsmash had the highest number of user accounts, 162 million to be precise, that were exposed in the hack, followed by MyFitnessPal, which had 151 million account details leaked. Below is the complete list of websites and the number of accounts that have been hacked.\nWebsites hacked\nNumber of accounts affected\n(PICTURE FOR REPRESENTATION ONLY) Hackers steal your user id and password.Reuters\nThis is one of the largest data breaches this year and The Register reported that the seller was asking for less than $20,000 in Bitcoin for the stolen data. The data was spotted on a black site called The Dream Market, and the samples appeared legit. The stolen information from the 16 sites included account holder names, email addresses and passwords.\nIt appears the passwords were hashed or encrypted, which means they needed to be cracked before being exploited. But if users have the habit of reusing passwords across various websites, it is important to change the login credentials immediately. Some of the affected websites, such as 500px and EyeEm are informing users to reset their passwords.\n\"It is quite common for people to reuse the same login credentials for accounts across a wide range of services in different industries including the financial, healthcare, retail and education verticals. If a malicious actor was able to obtain the email address and crack a hashed password for just one of these accounts, they could potentially gain access to multiple accounts with sensitive information,\" Stephan Chenette, CTO and co-founder of AttackIQ, told SC Magazine.\nThe email credentials including passwords of millions of people are feared to have been leaked to the dark web.Reuters\nVarious sites store various sorts of information depending on the service that is offered to users and some of them exposed users' location, personal details and social media authentication tokens.\nAlso, users who think they have been a victim of a cyberattack can check if their password is safe or needs to be changed on haveibeenpwned website.",

        "raw_content": "Born in 1963, in Fuzhou City, China. Lam TianXing, was named Lam Sin by his parents at birth. Since 1978, he has studied Chinese paintings and Western paintings with painters Wu Guoguang, Lin Guang, Chen Ting and Liu Muzhu. After moving to Hong Kong in 1984, he continued his creative Chinese painting and was active in Hong Kong's art world. In 1987, his work was selected as one of the winning piece for the Hong Kong Contemporary Art Biennale.\nIn 1989, he went to the north of China to continue his studies at the School of Chinese Painting Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and was taught by several well established professors, namely, Zhang Ping (\u5f35\u6191), Huang Runhua (\u9ec3\u6f64\u83ef), Li Xingjian (\u674e\u884c\u7c21), Jia Youfu (\u8cc8\u53c8\u798f), Lu Shen (\u76e7\u6c88), Zhou Sicong (\u5468\u601d\u8070), Han Guozhen (\u97d3\u570b\u81fb), Guo Yizhen (\u90ed\u6021\u5b6e) and Wang Yong (\u738b\u93de).\nThe systematic education of college training laid a solid, broad and diverse foundation for Lin Tianxing\u2019s creative painting. Around the same time, in the late 1980s, influenced by Western modern art trends, Lam TianXing gradually began to explore his own individualised language in art. He deconstructed the elements of Chinese painting and sought the contemporary meaning of traditional landscape painting in the stripped colours and compositions. However, during the process of experimenting, he retains the use of brush strokes and ink and inherits the soul and essence of Chinese painting. Thus, he opened up a new unique field of vision in which the tradition ink and colour are transformed to become contemporary. The range of this, and his, influence in ink colour painting was wide and extensive.\nLam has held more than 50 solo exhibitions in many major cities around the world, i.e. Beijing, Hong Kong, New York, Berlin, Bremen, Milan, Singapore, Taipei, Seoul and other places.\nHis works have been selected by the following reputable organisations to be displayed at: Hundred-year Chinese Painting Exhibition, the National Art Exhibition, the Thirty-year Art Exhibition of China's Reform and Opening-up, the Shenzhen International Ink Painting Biennale, the Contemporary Hong Kong Art Biennale, as well as he has participated more than a hundred joint exhibitions around the world.\nHis works have been collected by the National Art Museum of China, the National Painting Institute, the Guangzhou Art Museum, the Shenzhen Art Museum, the Shenzhen Art Institute, the Hong Kong Museum of Art, the Hong Kong Heritage Museum, the Government House, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council in Washington, Hong Kong Cathay Pacific Airways, Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong, Four Seasons Hotel Macau, Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong, Shangri-La Hotel, Beijing, United Airlines, Credit Suisse, Hong Kong Bank of China, etc., as well as many other institutions and private collectors worldly.\nIn addition, there are more than 20 publications of his collective works published.\nLam TianXing is currently the chairman of the Hong Kong International Art Exchange Association, member of the Chinese Artists Association, Member of the Founding Committee of the Chinese Painting Institute (Vice Chairman of the Hong Kong Committee), member of the Fujian Provincial Artists Association, specialist of the Li Keran Painting Institute, Committee member of the China Tropical Rainforest Academy of Arts, visiting painter of the Shenzhen Painting Academy, consultant of the 4-D Art Club, committee member of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, member of Election Committee of the Chief Executive Election (representative of cultural circles).\nMore over, Lam Tian Xing was twice invited by the Chinese Ministry of Culture to paint the \u201cMorning Songs\u201d(2005) and \u201cThe Views of the Victoria Harbour\u201d(2008) with the theme of Hong Kong, to take off with the Shenzhou VI and VII space shuttles respectively, witnessing the national event.

A fair amount.\nWhen you doodle on paper, what does it look like?\nA. The doodling is usually done under circumstances where it distracts me from something that's extraordinarily tedious or tiresome. I try frequently to do projections of three-dimensional structures because it can take my mind off of inconsequential events better than plain two-dimensional structures.\nDo you recommend that people whistle while they work?\nA. It depends on the circumstances. I regard it is infinitely superior to smoking. It's less stress-relieving than having a drink during work. And it's much less stress-relieving than having several drinks. But the latter therapy has to be considered on a case by case basis with due regard to the circumstances.\nA.

Goods moving through the Port reach every U.S. congressional district.\nThe Port encompasses 3,200 acres with 31 miles of waterfront, 10 piers, 80 berths and 66 post-Panamax gantry cranes. In 2018, the Port handled more than 8 million container units and expects to see even more growth in 2019.\nLed by the five-member Board of Harbor Commissioners and Executive Director Mario Cordero, the Port is investing $4 billion this decade in a capital improvement program, the largest in the nation. It is building some of the most modern, efficient and sustainable marine facilities in the world to accommodate bigger and bigger ships, while generating tens of thousands of new jobs in the region.\nThe two largest projects are the replacement of the aging Gerald Desmond Bridge, budgeted at nearly $1.5 billion, and the Middle Harbor Terminal Redevelopment Project at $1.5 billion. Middle Harbor will be the most technologically advanced container terminal in North America, capable of moving more than three million container units annually while cutting air pollution by half from previous levels. The new landmark, cable-stayed bridge will be safer and provide better Port access than the current span.\nThe Port of Long Beach prides itself on its culture of customer service and the strong relationships it maintains with industry, community, environmental advocates and partner agencies. It has received many accolades from government and industry for its landmark green initiatives, and industry leaders have named it \u201cThe Best Seaport in North America\u201d in 19 of the past 23 years.\ntrade@polb.com\nwww.polb.com/trade",

During the transfer, it is believed that the blow out preventer was removed too soon, causing a gas explosion. The truck driver fled from the explosion, but still suffered injuries to his back and leg.\nThe lawsuit names EOG Resources, Nabors Drilling USA, Halliburton Company, Upstream International, and Tim Smiley as defendants.

        "title": "The Day of the Dead Offering | Inside Mexico",
        "raw_content": "The Day of the Dead Offering\nby Oscar Guzman\n\u201cI am so accustomed to being alive\nI didn\u2019t realize I had turned into a vulture\u201d.\n(Mexican Composer)\nThe sound of the rain, the smell of wet earth, the heat of fire, the color of the sky glowing in the afternoon and the taste of hot coffee: all sensory experiences that we keep with us and that accompany us as we go through our life on earth.\nBut it isn\u2019t always like that. Some day, sooner or later, we cross the threshold that divides life and death, and then our perception of the world, as we know it changes. And red after red is perhaps a more surprising color any other shade that has ever been seen or imagined; the sharpest sounds that have ever been heard and we discover the hidden beauty of the odors that are hidden from our earthly noses\u2026Or perhaps, we won\u2019t even need our senses \u2014 sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch \u2014 for the new sensory experiences that our soul never used while life flowed by day to day.\nWhat experiences manifest themselves in that moment? What new textures do we learn? What new senses do we discover? Until now, no one has been able to answer these questions that are as unsettling as they are old.\nBut there is a moment where simple belief is confused with faith, a magical moment in which whatever\u2019s out there and our world reconcile, and crying and pain suffered in the wake of irremediable loss of a loved one is transformed. And body and spirit are reunited, the world of the alive and the kingdom of the dead, color, magic, tradition, mysticism untie to form one of the most celebrated parties in Mexico: the Day of the Dead.\nThe Day of the Dead offering is a living hope to spend just one more day with our loved ones from far away, from a remote place that allows them to return to earth, to the land of tastes, smells, colors, sounds and textures\u2026where they must relearn about senses and experiences that are no longer useful to them. They come back to share our elements, those which surely they also had at one time, and it is our only way to ensure communion in the festivity.\nIt is because of that the flower cempaxochitl is yellow, so that it can be seen from far away. And therefore the trail of flowers is the first guide that shows the guest to the home, where the altar is awaiting his arrival. And it is also necessary to be able to recognize the aroma of the house, so the guest feels at home, so that he can identify and enjoy his stay in the place that holds so many memories. It is because of this that incense is used. It should be lit in the house to blend both aromas, so that later, when the guest comes, he won\u2019t get lost on the way. It is also said that smell is the only one of the five senses that is used after death. It is developed in order to make the return home a little easier.\nBut it isn\u2019t only the memory of the senses and eternal life that allows the communion. It is also necessary to remind them of the world as they knew it, the world that they left behind, so full of material things, so sensory.\nThe presence of the four elements is required: water, earth, wind and fire. No offering can be complete if one of those elements is missing, and their symbolic representation is a fundamental part of the offering.\nWater, the fountain of life, is put in a glass so that those who come thirsty can relieve their thirst after a long journey. Bread, made with products of the earth, is there to satisfy their hunger. Wind, which moves the colored papel picado that decorates and brings happiness to the table. Fire, which purifies everything and for this occasion comes in the form of a candle that is lit in their name so that we can invoke our dearly departed.\nLater, comes the banquet, with all its specially prepared delicacies, the most splendorous part of all the party. Depending on the resources and the geographical zone, there are tamales andbu\u00f1uelos, coffee and atole, beans and corundas, mole and enchiladas \u2014 all the food that the visiting loved one once enjoyed. It is a must to serve the food while it\u2019s hot so that it puts off a stronger aroma.\nOther key items are the picture of grandma, uncle\u2019s hat, the rattle that the baby never played with. Sugar calaveras with the deceased\u2019s name on the forehead, and little pumpkins are all typical of this time of year. Images of saints are also present to guide and accompany our beloved back to their new home.\nFor the children there are candies and fruits; for the adults, cigarettes and tequila. For everyone there is the hope of having our loved ones at our table once again, sharing for a brief moment of our time as we know it\u2026\nOscar Guzm\u00e1n",

        "raw_content": "When a CDCR employee\u2019s child dies, Peer Support is there to help\nby Don Chaddock, Inside CDCR editor | Oct 19, 2016 | More Stories\nCDCR\u2019s employees live and work all across the state so when an employee suffers a loss, such as the death of their child, the ripple effects can impact schools, communities and the CDCR workplace. This is when the department\u2019s Peer Support Program (PSP) goes into action.\nStatewide Peer Support Program (PSP) Manager Rosanna Rodriguez speaks during a recent training of PSP team members at CDCR Headquarters.\n\u201cThis program was established to ensure staff involved in work-related critical incidents are provided with intervention and available resources to cope with the immediate effects of a traumatic incident,\u201d the PSP website states. \u201cPSP is activated following work-related critical incidents (such as) sexual/physical assault, officer/agent involved shooting, death of a co-worker or family member of a co-worker, riots, hostage incident, (and) an employee with suicidal thoughts or when an employee is facing a crisis.\u201d\nOctober is Child Death Awareness Month and PSP offers many resources to employees who have suffered the death of a child.\n\u201cThe PSP provides a peer who will listen, answer questions, offer resources and help an employee deal with his/her situation in a confidential environment,\u201d the PSP brochure states.\nRosanna Rodriguez, CDCR\u2019s statewide peer support program manager, said people grieve differently and sometimes their coworkers aren\u2019t certain how to react. The bereaved parents may be in shock, confused and unable to deal with too much at one time.\nWhat to expect for a bereaved parent\n\u201cThere is no more devastating loss than the death of a child,\u201d reports the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (see PDF linked below titled \u201cGrief of Parents: A Lifetime Journey\u201d). \u201cParental grief is different from other losses \u2013 it is intensified, exaggerated and lengthened.\u201d\nAccording to the national report, \u201cParents do not go through grief and come out the other side as before the loss. Grief changes parents. \u2026 As they attempt to move forward, bereaved parents realize they are survivors and have been strong enough to endure what is probably life\u2019s harshest blow.\u201d\nFathers and mothers grieve differently, according to the report. With much of the attention focused on the mother, fathers are often left with little support.\n\u201cMen are often asked how their wives are doing but not how they are doing. Such expectations place an unmanageable burden on men and deprive them of their \u2026 need to grieve,\u201d the report states. \u201cIt is not unusual for grieving fathers to feel overwhelmed, ignored, isolated and abandoned, but many say that such strong emotions are very difficult to contain after their child\u2019s death.\u201d\nAfter the initial shock wears off, parents are hit with other symptoms.\nThe Compassionate Friends is an organization devoted to helping parents and families who\u2019ve lost a child.\n\u201cThose who have had a child die often immediately experience shock, numbness, denial, and disbelief, all of which act as a cushion against the full impact of the loss. As time passes and these emotions wear off, others emerge, often including guilt, anger, loneliness, despair, sadness, and regret. These feelings are all part of the emotional reaction called \u2018grief\u2019 and may be so overwhelming that parents often do not understand what they are experiencing,\u201d according to The Compassionate Friends, a support group for those who\u2019ve lost children (see link below).\nGrief can also cause fatigue, anxiety and insomnia.\n\u201cThe emotional loss of grief often manifests itself in physical ways. Parents may sleep for only a few hours, if at all, each night. Feeling tired, walking in a fog, long- and short-term memory loss, and an inability to concentrate are not uncommon. Sleep deprivation and the extreme stress of the situation often lead to the feeling that you are \u2018losing it,\u2019 but this is a normal psychological reaction,\u201d according to the support group. \u201cGuilt, real or imagined, is normal. The feeling that if only something had been different, the child might have lived, is common. Despair and loneliness are common. Even when you are with a group of people, you may feel alone. Few people can understand how deeply a bereaved parent hurts unless they have been there.\u201d\nGrief isn\u2019t on a timetable.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a myth that the one-year anniversary marks the end of the mourning period. After a year has passed, many people mistakenly think that a grieving person should be over the loss and able to move on with his or her life,\u201d writes \u201cJourneying through Grief\u201d author Kenneth Haugk. \u201cYou don\u2019t receive a one-year diploma that says you\u2019ve \u2018graduated\u2019 from your grief.\u201d\nIn Still Standing magazine (link to PDF article below), bereaved mother Angela Miller writes, \u201cI wish people could understand that grief lasts forever because love lasts forever; that the loss of a child is not one finite event, it is a continuous loss that unfolds minute by minute over the course of a lifetime. Every missed birthday, holiday, milestone; should-be back-to-school years and graduations; weddings that will never be, grandchildren that should have been but will never be born \u2013 an entire generation of people are irrevocably altered forever.\u201d\nGrieving parents are often told to \u201cget over it\u201d or to \u201cmove on\u201d by those who might mean well, but the message can seem callous.\n\u201cWe have activated Peer Support for units that have a coworker who has lost a child,\u201d Rodriguez said. \u201cIt\u2019s a way to help the coworkers assist the transition for the grieving parent when they return to work. Often, people don\u2019t know what to say. Listening without passing judgement is probably the best thing a coworker can do.\u201d\nThe Compassionate Friends suggests sometimes words aren\u2019t sufficient when trying to comfort a bereaved parent.\n\u201cAvoid using \u2018It was God\u2019s will\u2019 and other cliches that attempt to minimize or explain the death. Don\u2019t try to find something positive in the child\u2019s death, such as, \u2018At least you have other children.\u2019 There are no words that make it all right that their child has died,\u201d the support group states on their website.\nThe national report reinforces this suggestion.\nA report published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services sheds light on child loss.\n\u201cAllow the parent(s) to express feelings without imposing your views or feelings about what is appropriate behavior,\u201d the national report states. \u201cAvoid telling the parent(s) you know just how they feel.\u201d\nOther suggestions include asking about the child, speaking the child\u2019s name, offering flowers or personal notes to the parent(s), remembering anniversaries and special days or donating to a specific memorial in honor of the child.\n\u201cDon\u2019t tell them that they are \u2018lucky it wasn\u2019t worse;\u2019 a traumatized person is not consoled by those statements. Instead, tell them that you are sorry such an event has occurred and you want to understand and assist them,\u201d the PSP website states.\n\u201cBe cautious with your word choice when speaking to the griever. Although well-intended, expressions such as \u2018I understand\u2019 and \u2018I can imagine what it\u2019s like\u2019 may not help, as loss and grief are different for each person. A simple \u2018I\u2019m sorry to hear of your loss\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019m thinking of you\u2019 are good ways to communicate your condolences. You may also want to write a special note to show you care,\u201d the PSP site states.\nAnother national support-group, The Bereaved Parents of the USA, offers meetings and comfort for families.\nAccording to their website, parents who\u2019ve lost a child will be different.\n\u201cBe patient with us. Our lives have totally changed,\u201d an article on the website states. \u201cDon\u2019t forget us one, two, three, four or even five years down the road. We will never forget that death date, birthday or special occasion.\u201d\nThe article tells friends and family to \u201cnot be offended if we don\u2019t laugh as much as we used to, don\u2019t want to go out as much as we used to, don\u2019t feel comfortable in crowds (and) are no longer the life of the party.\u201d It also states, bereaved parents often \u201cneed to be around other people who\u2019ve lost children.\u201d\n\u201cPeer Support is there for the duration,\u201d said Rodriguez. \u201cGrief doesn\u2019t just go away when a child has died.

She was peppered with questions about her relationship with Cox's husband, actor David Arquette, just hours after the couple announced they are legally separated.\nDuring a tell-all interview with Howard Stern, Arquette confirmed that he did have a fling with Jasmine Waltz, but he says it happened after he had already split from Cox.\nStern: \"I know you have a girlfriend now that you are moving in with.\"\nArquette: [Expletive deleted]! I don't have a girlfriend. I had sex with a girl once...maybe twice.\nStern: Maybe twice.\nArquette admitted that he and Cox secretly split months ago, but they were forced to come forward after his relationship with the cocktail waitress became public.\n\"Yesterday my first, my only, conquest became public. And so, we had to release the statement,\" Arquette explained to Stern.\nIn the joint statement the embattled couple wrote:\n\"We have agreed to a trial separation that dates back for some time. We remain best friends and responsible parents to our daughter and we still love each other deeply.\"\nArquette is also speaking out about those rumors that Cox had an affair with her Cougar Town co-star.\nArquette: I truly don't think she ever had an affair with Brian Van Holt. On an emotional level I think she may have...\nStern: ....Bonded with him.\nArquette: Bonded with him. Yes.\nCox and Arquette met in 1996 on the set of the hit movie Scream and were married three years later. Ironically Arquette says their marital problems came to a head while filming the yet-to-be released Scream 4.\n\"I'm feeling distance, obviously, from my wife. We have not had sex in quite a... at that time, a month or so. Since then it's been like four months or so,\" Arquette said during his interview with Stern.\nJust after the Howard Stern interview, Arquette spoke to photographers outside a diner in Los Angeles where he had breakfast with the couple's 6-year-old daughter Coco. He told Stern about the heartbreaking conversation he and Cox had with their daughter.\n\"We went to the beach and had a picnic and sat her down and explained to her that you know, we're grown ups and a lot of times when grown ups are grown up they need to figure out their lives,\" said the actor.\nArquette says he's holding onto hope that he can still save his troubled marriage.\n\"We're still working it out. We still love each other,\" he told Stern.\n\"You're not going to do anything like beg Courteney to get back with you though, are you?\" asked Stern.\n\"I've been begging Courteney to get back with me,\" Arquette said.",

        "title": "What Is the Best Measure of a Company's Financial Health?",
        "raw_content": "What Is the Best Measure of a Company's Financial Health?\nA company's bottom line profit margin is the best single indicator of its financial health and long-term viability. Investors are constantly searching for one golden key measurement that can be obtained by looking at a company's financial statements for evaluating a stock, but it is simply not that easy. To accurately evaluate the financial health and long-term sustainability of a company, a number of financial metrics must be considered. Four main areas of financial health that should be examined are liquidity, solvency, profitability and operating efficiency. However, of the four, likely the best measurement of a company's health is the level of its profitability.\nThere are a number of financial ratios that can be reviewed to gauge a company's overall financial health and to make a determination of the likelihood of the company continuing as a viable business. Standalone numbers such as total debt or net profit are less meaningful than financial ratios that connect and compare the various numbers on a company's balance sheet or income statement. The general trend of financial ratios, whether they are improving over time, is also an important consideration.\nLiquidity is a key factor in assessing a company's basic financial health. Liquidity is the amount of cash and easily-convertible-to-cash assets a company owns to manage its short-term debt obligations. Before a company can prosper in the long term, it must first be able to survive in the short term.\nThe two most common metrics used to measure liquidity are the current ratio and the quick ratio. Of these two, the quick ratio, also sometimes referred to as the acid test, is the more precise measure, since, in dividing current assets by current liabilities, it excludes inventory from assets and excludes the current part of long-term debt from liabilities. Thus, it provides a more realistically practical indication of a company's ability to manage short-term obligations with cash and assets on hand. A quick ratio lower than 1.0 is a danger signal, as it indicates current liabilities exceed current assets.\nClosely related to liquidity is the concept of solvency, a company's ability to meet its debt obligations on an ongoing basis, not just over the short term. Solvency ratios calculate a company's long-term debt in relation to its assets or equity.\nThe debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio is generally a solid indicator of a company's long-term sustainability, because it provides a measurement of debt against stockholders' equity, and is therefore also a measure of investor interest and confidence in a company. A lower D/E ratio means more of a company's operations are being financed by shareholders rather than by creditors. This is a plus for a company since shareholders do not charge interest on the financing they provide.\nD/E ratios vary widely between industries, but regardless of the specific nature of a business, a downward trend over time in the D/E ratio is a good indicator a company is on increasingly solid financial ground.\nA company's operating efficiency is key to its financial success. Its operating margin is the best indicator of its operating efficiency. This metric indicates not only a company's basic operational profit margin after deducting the variable costs of producing and marketing the company's products or services; it thereby provides an indication of how well the company's management controls costs.\nGood management is essential to a company's long-term sustainability. Good management can overcome an array of temporary problems, while bad management can lead to the collapse of even the most promising business.\nWhile liquidity, basic solvency and operating efficiency are all important factors to consider in evaluating a company, the bottom line remains a company's bottom line: its net profitability. Companies can indeed survive for years without being profitable, operating on the goodwill of creditors and investors, but to survive in the long run, a company must eventually attain and maintain profitability.\nThe best metric for evaluating profitability is net margin, the ratio of profits to total revenues. It is crucial to consider the net margin ratio because a simple dollar figure of profit is inadequate to assess the company's financial health. A company might show a net profit figure of several hundred million dollars, but if that dollar figure represents a net margin of only 1% or less, then even the slightest increase in operating costs or marketplace competition could plunge the company into the red. A larger net margin, especially as compared to industry peers, means a greater margin of financial safety, and also indicates a company is in a better financial position to commit capital to growth and expansion.\nWhat are liquid assets, and why are they beneficial to a business?\nAnalyzing Google's Balance Sheet\nWhat is the best measure of a stock's volatility?\nWhat are financial risk ratios and how are they used to measure risk?\nFinancial Ratios to Spot Companies Headed for Bankruptcy",

        "raw_content": "Phish To Release \u2018A Live One\u2019 On Vinyl\nIn June of 1995 Phish issued the quartet\u2019s first official live album, A Live One. The famed release is coming to vinyl for the first time this fall. A Live One\u2019s vinyl 4-LP set is due on October 27.\nA Live One was recorded during a historic year for the band, 1994. Most tracks were culled from Phish Fall Tour 1994, but others from that year\u2019s summer and holiday tours were also used. Here\u2019s more info from a listing on Bull Moose:\nThe band produced the album, selecting the material and overseeing the mix to 1/2\u2033 reels in March-April 1995 with Ed Thacker and his team of engineers at Bearsville Studios. A Live One contains twelve original Phish compositions, five of which were previously unreleased: \u201cGumbo,\u201d \u201cSlave To The Traffic Light,\u201d \u201cWilson,\u201d \u201cSimple,\u201d and \u201cHarry Hood.\u201d The record was sequenced to approximate a two-set Phish performance and every track from the more-than-two-hour collection is notable \u2013 from the thirty-plus minute \u201cTweezer\u201d to the \u201cWilson\u201d opener from the band\u2019s first Madison Square Garden show. \u201cGumbo\u201d featured an updated version of Phish\u2019s own Giant Country Horns. More than twenty years later, A Live One \u201cStash\u201d and \u201cHarry Hood\u201d still rank among both songs\u2019 top performances. After five studio albums, A Live One captured and conveyed the magic of the band\u2019s improvisational live shows, and every song on the record (except \u201cMontana\u201d) has remained a staple of Phish shows ever since. A Live One was released by Elektra June 27, 1995 on CD and cassette. It was the first Phish album to be certified gold and remains Phish\u2019s best selling album. The laquers for the vinyl edition were cut from the 1/2\u201d flat masters by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Each LP is pressed onto 180g vinyl and includes a free MP3 download of the album transferred from vinyl.\nAs mentioned, the vinyl comes with a free MP3 of the album transferred from vinyl.\n[Hat Tip \u2013 @gayanastasio]\nA Live One Vinyl Tracklist\nSlave To The Traffic Light\nTweezer Pt. 1\nThe Squirming Coil",

They also found the rich soil throughout the area to be perfect for farming and livestock.\nJust after the turn of the 20th Century this simple railroad stop and surrounding community was named Peck, but soon that all would change. In ceremonies held on December 2, 1907 at the now historic downtown depot, Peck was renamed Tomball in honor of the man responsible for routing the railroad and its operations through the small town . . . his name was Thomas Ball.\nThomas Ball was a lawyer for the Trinity & Brazos Valley Railroad, a former congressman, practice law in Houston, was three-time mayor of Huntsville, Texas and is known as the \u201cFather of the Port of Houston\u201d. By turning the sleepy town into a vibrant rail center, Ball virtually ensured the growth that would follow for years to come.\nAs the city continued to grow over the next 25-years, residents had little idea of the economic boon that was about to gush into their lives. On May 27th, 1933 the Humble Oil Company struck oil southwest of town earning Tomball the nationally recognized nickname of \u201cOiltown USA\u201d. Humble Oil Company, now known as Exxon, and more than 20 other energy companies worked the fields around the City for many years producing more than 100 million barrels of oil and 316 billion cubic feet of natural gas.\nIn the decades to follow Tomball has continued to grow into an economically diverse and prosperous community near to the big city while retaining its small town history and hometown sensibilities.\nBrowse listings for \u201cTomball\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Chandeliers: Your Guide to Do\u2019s and Don\u2019ts\nLighting in your home is important and a must have. If you do not have any natural lighting, you want to make sure that you offer other lighting sources from lamps to overhead lights. Chandeliers are a great option for any home and they will add a touch of luxury. Below, we will provide you with some do\u2019s and don\u2019ts to ensure that your chandeliers look great and match in your home.\nChandeliers Do 1: Choose the Right Size\nThe first thing you want to do is choose the right size chandelier for your home. If you choose one that is too big, it will overpower the room, but, if you choose one too small, it will look odd and not provide enough light.\nYou should keep in mind that you want to choose the size of the chandelier based on the size of the room, which means you need to measure the space you. Once you have a number in feet, add the two numbers together and that number in inches should be the diameter of the piece.\nChandeliers Don\u2019t 1: Hang the Chandelier Too Low\nIf you do not hang the chandelier up high enough, you will find that people constantly bump into it when they attempt to walk near or around it. You should have the chandelier sit at about 36 inches from your dining room table as to provide enough room for everyone.\nChandeliers Do 2: Don\u2019t Be Afraid of Ornate Chandeliers\nAn ornate chandelier can be a focal point in any room and provide you and your guests with something to talk about. You should choose beautiful pieces that really enhance the room. If you are a person who likes more simple options, that is okay too. Just don\u2019t be afraid of the chandelier.\nChandeliers Don\u2019t 2: Limit Your Usage to One Chandelier\nYou can have multiple chandeliers in your home and you do not have to be scared to have more than one. If you have a large room, you can use two chandeliers to light the space. If you are worried that you have too much light, simply install a dimmer switch to help control the lighting in the room.\nIf you are looking for a way to light your home beautifully and elegantly, choose a chandelier. Of course, you should keep the above do\u2019s and don\u2019ts in mind when you choose to decorate.\nAwesome Paint Colors for Any Room in Your Home\nAre you ready to paint a room in your home? If so, you may have everything down except what color you plan to actually paint the room. Many people struggle with this step because you don\u2019t want to choose a color that is too boring, but you also do not want to choose one that [\u2026]\nBathroom Mirror: Choosing the Right Size for Your Space\nThe size of your bathroom mirror is important, but it is one of the most overlooked items that is in the bathroom.

        "raw_content": "Subtle Ways to Increase Sales with Interior Design\nNo matter what type of business you own, when done right, your interior design can help increase sales. A good example that will help you see how important design is when it comes to encouraging consumers to make a purchase is window displays. This old favorite can still turn heads and entice people to come inside your store. It works so well because you have the chance to display your products in a creative and fun way that generates interest.\nOnce consumers have entered your store, a good interior design will encourage them to walk around longer, which is what you need to increase sales. Customers may come in for one specific item but a good design can have them walking out with several different products because the longer people stay in your store, the more things they\u2019ll see that interest them.\nThe window display is a dramatic way to get attention and it does work but there are also many subtle ways that you can increase sales with your interior design.\nSometimes you need to be dramatic and grab the attention of your customers but on a daily basis, using your interior design to create subtle ways to increase sales will pay off. There are many subtle ways to use your interior design to help increase sales but the following are some of the ones used most often:\nUse visual aids to get your customers to slow down and look around. You don\u2019t want them rushing in and back out again and the best way to prevent that from happening is to give them something interesting to look at. Use signs and displays to get their attention and make them think about the products you have to offer.\nUse isles to create a path for your customers to walk and this will help you guide them in the direction you want them to go to increase exposure.\nPlace displays at the end of isles to capture the customer\u2019s attention. Isle displays have proven to be very effective over the years.\nDisplay the items that are in the highest demand at eye-level for the best results. This way, customers automatically see them without having to search and that increases exposure.\nMove displays and products around to keep things interesting. You will have regular customers that would like to see different displays and sale items and this will give your store a fresh, updated appearance.\nCreate a comfortable and interesting environment. The more comfortable your customers feel, the longer they will stay in your store and shop.\nThese methods help to increase sales without making you appear pushy, which will also help to improve your company image. Here at J. Design Group, we have the knowledge and experience needed to help you create the perfect interior design. Give us a call today to discuss your next project.\nEntranceway Designs are Crucial\nThe second customers walk through your door, they will look at everything from the lighting to the type of flooring you have and you need to make a good impression. They will use this information to determine how they feel about your store, which is why the entranceway design is so important. Keep your store clean, organized and make sure everything is in good shape to help create a positive impression.\nSince this is when customers form an opinion of your store, it\u2019s not a good place for displays and signage. However, the wall and space to the right of the entranceway is a great place for displays and signs offering special deals. This is because the majority of people will turn right after entering a store and the way you design this area will have a major impact on sales.\nWhy You Need an Interior Design Project Manager\nBefore you begin any commercial interior design project, hire a project manager. You may think that you don\u2019t really need this type of service but unless you have experience working with commercial property and plenty of time to devote to the project, you\u2019ll need help. It\u2019s better to hire a manger at the beginning of [\u2026]\nInterior design projects require the services of outside contractors such as construction crews, electricians and plumbers but the exact services needed, will depend on the type and size of the project. Negotiating contracts with all outside workers is imperative in making sure the job is handled professionally and it\u2019s a big part of managing your [\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "Amy Schumer wrestles with monogamy in Judd Apatow's Trainwreck trailer\nFebruary 11, 2015 by: Sean Wist\nUPDATE: Red-band trailer added below.\nIt may surprise you to learn that Judd Apatow's latest directed film is the first not to be written by the man, but instead but comedian Amy Schumer who also stars in the flick. The story revolves around Amy, who excels pretty well in every aspect of her life except when it comes to her significant others. That all changes when she meets Aaron (Bill Hader) who freaks her the eff out when she discovers that he might be up for more than a one-night fling.\nI think Apatow is a great for finding some of the more human qualities in any given comedy, but often loses focus and lets things drag on for far too long. The fact that he's directing from someone else's material excites me, and TRAINWRECK boasts a hell of a cast that includes (but is not limited to) Bill Hader, Tilda Swinton, Brie Larson, Colin Quinn, John Cena, LeBron James and even Method Man. Something tells me that those unfamiliar with Amy Schumer will be sitting up and taking notice after this flick hits theaters this summer.\nTRAINWRECK will be released in theaters on July 17, 2015.",

I particularly remember how difficult the initial transition was. I didn\u2019t fit in, I spoke Caribbean English with a thick Spanish accent, I did not feel accepted or welcomed by my peers. It was a tough time in my life.\nOnce I felt comfortable and established however, the U.S. became my new home and I thrived in the environment. I love Panama, I continue to practice many Panamanian traditions, and I wish that I could visit more often. That said, I was educated here in the States. I have taken my right to participate in the political process since I could first vote, very seriously. I am a proud dues paying union member. I own a home, and I have owned a business here. My family is here \u2013 my family of origin, the family I have created with my wife, our Son, our daughter-in-law and grandchildren.\nI realize that the DACA students may not have established families, businesses or purchased homes yet. They do, however, make a significant financial contribution to our economy by paying taxes, social security and the fees associated with reapplying to the program every two years for the past 10 years.",

Check out this story on jsonline.com: https://jsonl.in/2xQr63z\nDon Behm, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Published 10:23 a.m. CT Sept. 26, 2018 | Updated 1:27 p.m. CT Sept. 26, 2018\nThe Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District would increase spending by 1.9 percent next year, to $307 million, under a proposed 2019 budget.(Photo11: Mike De Sisti, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)Buy Photo\nHouseholds, industries, businesses and even the Milwaukee County Zoo will pay the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District more in 2019 to operate and finance upgrades to wastewater treatment plants, regional sewers and the Milorganite fertilizer factory.\nAnd budget hikes also will go to efforts to prevent sewer overflows like those that occurred this summer during torrential rains.\nUnder a proposed 2019 budget, the sewerage district would boost spending next year by more than $5.6 million, a 1.9 percent increase, to $307 million.\nCounty households would pay an average of $2.44 more in sewer user charges in 2019, a 1.8 percent increase, budget documents show. The average annual residential user charge is estimated at $139.81 for 2019.\nThe Zoo would pay an estimated $6,673 more for sewer service in 2019 than it did this year, a 2.3 percent increase, as its share of the costs of running the district's facilities.\nTotal operating costs increase more than $2.7 million, a 2.7 percent hike, to nearly $104.7 million in next year's budget, MMSD Executive Director Kevin Shafer said.\nA significant portion of the increase, or $1.5 million, is due to the higher fee paid to Veolia Water Milwaukee under the first full year of a 10-year contract extension to run district facilities, according to Shafer. Veolia Water will be paid $47.7 million in 2019.\nTotal user charges climb more than $1 million to $84.7 million next year and sales of Milorganite are expected to generate at least $10 million. Those are the two largest sources of revenue used to finance the district's operating budget.\nRELATED: Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District user fees to rise 11.5% as total spending drops in 2018\nThe Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District is planning to remove a thick layer of black, oily sediment contaminated with toxic PCBs from the bottom of a regional sewer on the north side of Milwaukee. (Photo11: Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District)\nA separate $202.3 million capital spending plan for 2019 includes repairs and upgrades of the district's aging facilities, as well as costs of building flood control projects and debt payments, MMSD Finance Director and Treasurer Mark Kaminski said.\nThe district will levy up to $100.1 million in property taxes from Milwaukee County property owners \u2014 a 1.75 percent increase \u2014 to repay debt as part of next year's capital budget.\nBut the tax rate needed to generate the levy for 2019 would drop 4 cents, to $1.69 per $1,000 of equalized value, thanks to increasing property values, MMSD deputy finance director Mickie Pearsall said.\nA family living in a Milwaukee County home valued at $200,000 as of Jan. 1, 2018, would pay about $4.02 more to the district for 2019 than this year, a total of $338.00, due to the higher property value.\nTen communities outside the county would pay $30.14 million, down $26,000, in tax equivalent payments. Those payments and the tax levy are the two largest revenue sources for the capital budget.\nThe district's 11-member commission is expected to adopt a final 2019 budget and tax levy at its Oct. 22 meeting.\nThe district will target the Milorganite fertilizer factory on Jones Island for at least $8.6 million in repairs and parts replacement to keep it running while increasing spending on flood control projects by more than $4.3 million.\nFully $5.9 million is committed next year to half a dozen projects aimed at reducing flood flows on the Kinnickinnic River.\nRELATED: Concrete bed of Kinnickinnic River in Pulaski Park to be removed for recreational and safety upgrades\nCracked and broken concrete bed of the Kinnickinnic River at Pulaski Park will be removed in 2019 as part of an $8.6 million flood control project that will include widening the channel west of S. 16th St. (Photo11: Don Behm/Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)\nProposed removal of 1,900 feet of deteriorated concrete on the bed of the river through Pulaski Park is expected to get started later this year and continue into 2019. The river channel will be excavated up to 200 feet wide between 16th Street and the Union Pacific railroad bridge.\nMMSD's 2019 capital budget adds $3 million, up to a total of $5 million, to its \"Green Solutions\" program to help municipalities pay for porous pavement on alleys and streets, roof gardens and drainage swales along roads.\nSo-called green infrastructure is designed to capture rain where it falls and keep it out of sewers. This is one piece of a strategy to achieve zero sewer overflows by 2035.\nMMSD fell behind in meeting that goal with five overflows of combined sanitary and storm sewers and three overflows of separate sanitary sewers during this summer's above average precipitation and unusually intense rainfalls.\nIn another piece of its zero overflow strategy, the district's 2019 capital budget keeps a promise to distribute $5 million a year to municipalities to pay for relining or replacing sewer laterals on private properties in neighborhoods where excessive amounts of storm water leak into the pipes.\nFor 2019, the district also intends to get started on one long-delayed capital projects to remove a few hundred yards of thick and oily sediment containing hazardous chemicals known as PCBs from the bottom of a major regional sewer on the north side of Milwaukee. Cleaning and rehabilitating the aging pipe will cost an estimated $9 million.\nRead or Share this story: https://jsonl.in/2xQr63z",

I consider therapy a collaborative endeavor in which client and therapist work together to process emotions, events, and behaviors in the quest to facilitate understanding and change.\nOne of my primary goals is to foster an environment of safety and trust in which to explore issues, fears, concerns, and hopes. I believe in a growth model conceptualized in terms of health rather than sickness. A person is the best expert on themself, and together we utilize our relationship to realize self-awareness in the search for meaning.\nI employ a holistic approach, using a variety of techniques to address the countless experiences and emotions that make up the person. I have found that a humanistic and existential view is often helpful with clients who are struggling to find meaning in their lives. I have also found cognitive-behavioral techniques extremely effective in facilitating growth. I enjoy working with adult individuals, couples, and groups. I have worked extensively with survivors of trauma and those suffering from PTSD. I also especially welcome those who struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, stress management, grief and loss, infertility, or career decisions.\nRead Lisa\u2019s Articles",

The EPA's decision complements the Executive's effort to coordinate work being done across the 500-square-mile watershed.\nGet detailed updates on recent events, strategy planning and stakeholder engagement at Our Green Duwamish (external site).\nThe Green/Duwamish Watershed isn't a series of isolated parts\u2014river, uplands, habitats\u2014it's one connected whole. Our approach to protecting the entire Watershed should be just as connected.\nInstead of tackling one issue at a time, typically in response to a regulatory mandate or natural disaster, we will use the best available science and emerging technologies to link projects to outcomes for cleaner air, land, and water.\nIn addition to cleaning up historic contamination in the Lower Duwamish, we will address pollution at its source\u2014all the way upstream into the Cascades, to ensure long-term results.\nIt's not just the single polluter with a big pipe emptying into the river\u2014much of that has already been taken care of. The threat today comes from our homes, lawns, and cars. Stormwater carries contamination from motor oils, pesticides, pet waste, and household hazardous chemicals into the river, streams, and, ultimately, the Puget Sound.\nThat's why it's important we rebuild our stormwater infrastructure so that it protects the Watershed and Sound.\nWatch the Executive explain this new strategy\nTeaming up to protect the Watershed\nKing County and the City of Seattle partnered with the University of Washington Green Futures Lab and the Bullitt Foundation to strengthen efforts to support our environment and the people who live, work, and play in our beautiful region.\nWe're creating a framework built by community leaders, planners, businesses and individuals who are committed to smart, regional-based and coordinated investments to improve our air, land, and water, and support our future quality of life in the Green/Duwamish Watershed.\nThis collaborative approach is based on the Watershed Open Space Strategy developed for the Puyallup-White Watershed.\nWorking together, we can achieve so much more than working alone. We can identify opportunities in the Green/Duwamish Watershed and fill gaps to achieve better outcomes that benefit local cities, forests, farms, rivers, diverse communities, and Washington state\u2019s industrial core.\nGet to know the Green/Duwamish\nDownload a detailed PDF of the Green/Duwamish Watershed - 1.1Mb PDF\nCovers nearly 500 square miles.\nStretches from one end of King County to the other, from the Cascades to Elliott Bay.\nUpper reaches of the Watershed includes healthy forest habitat as well as the City of Tacoma's municipal drinking water source.\nThe middle portions of the Watershed offer recreational opportunities, historic and active farmlands, and thousands of acres of preserved open space.\nThe Lower Duwamish features suburban and urban areas and is home to some of the state's most important economic engines, including the second-largest warehouse district on the West Coast.\nNative Americans have used this Watershed since time immemorial.\nToday, the Green/Duwamish is home to some of the most economically and ethnically diverse communities in the nation.\nShape the future!

        "raw_content": "1895-1902 bicycle racing\nAuthor Roger Gilles has completed some extensive research into bicycling in the late 1880\u2019s and early 1900\u2019s. He has uncovered a gem of history for women and how it likely was the first professional sport for female athletes. In the 1890\u2019s bicycling was at its peak with everyone looking to ride their bike. It was not just boys but men and later the women took to leisurely riding the bike. This was a time without automobiles.\nWhenever people are riding it became common to race other riders. Society tried to dissuade women from bicycle racing but they showed their grit and prevailed into their own racing league. Safety became paramount as the women began from 1895 to 1902 to enjoy riding and racing. For those seven years, women raced as people flocked to the arenas and venues and areas that they raced in. The best were Tillie Anderson, Lizzie Glaw and Dottie Farnsworth.\nRaces were set up in Kansas City, St. Louis, New Orleans, Indianapolis, Chicago, Cleveland and Detroit among other spots in the country. The rules were very structured as they were scheduled times for a fast-paced six-day race that became highly competitive. Still, there was a strong opposition to the women racing as the female frailty came into question. The League of American Wheelmen went on an intensive campaign to marginalize the women and bicycle racing. Their efforts reach a zenith after two bicycle racers died in 1902. The sport of bicycle racing for women came to an abrupt halt.\nThe book is a joy to read as the sport of women\u2019s bicycle racing has become a forgotten part of sports and the people and events during this seven-year period deserve their place in sports history.\nThanks to the University of Nebraska Publishing for the book copy in exchange for a fair and honest review.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Books by Dr. McGhee / Humor as Survival Training for a Stressed Out World: The 7 Humor Habits Program\nA Kindle ebook edition is available @ $7.99.\nThis book shows HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR and get the health and coping benefits of humor (discussed in Humor: The Lighter Path to Resilience and Health) into your own life. It contains the first-ever humor skills training program with evidence from multiple countries documenting its effectiveness in boosting your sense of humor and learning to use humor to cope with the stress in your life. No other program for improving your sense of humor can make this claim.\nAnd here\u2019s the good news. It\u2019s not too late to improve your sense of humor. Research on the 7HHP has shown that EVEN SENIORS (average age in the study was in the 70s) can learn to improve their sense of humor and use humor to cope with the stress that goes with aging.\nThe basic idea is to build key foundation humor skills on your good days\u2014when you\u2019re in a good mood. While strengthening one habit/skill at a time, you don\u2019t extend these skills to daily stressors until the habits are well developed (otherwise, your sense of humor abandons you when you\u2019re under stress). Specific exercises and activities are provided to develop each skill over a 1- to 2-week period.\nThe 7 Humor Habits Program first builds the habit of becoming a more playful person in general (humor is a form of mental play), and then focuses on verbal humor skills, finding humor in everyday life, laughing at yourself and other key humor skills.\nStudies in the USA, Switzerland, Australia and Germany (all discussed in the appendix of the book) have confirmed the effectiveness of this program in boosting your sense of humor. Evidence also shows that it improves your daily mood, boosts optimism and improves your ability to cope with stress. There is even evidence that the 7 Humor Habits Program is an effective tool in reducing clinical depression and anxiety. It has been shown to be effective for all ages, from college students to senior citizens. So if you start today, you can expect to find significant improvement in your sense of humor in 2-4 months (depending on whether you spend one or two weeks strengthening each habit).\n[See the first (Dec. 21, 2010) blog article under \u201cDeveloping Humor Coping Skills\u201d for further background information on the 7 Humor Habits Program.]",

        "raw_content": "Cursed Pirate Girl: Jeremy Bastian's Gorgeous Comic Book Began Life on 26 Feet of Computer Paper\nJeremy Bastian, creator of Cursed Pirate Girl\nImages courtesy of Archaia\nLiz Ohanesian | December 6, 2012 | 6:00am\n*Archaia Brings 'Lost' Jim Henson Screenplay to Life with A Tale of Sand\n*More Comic Books coverage at L.A. Weekly\nIt's easy to get lost inside the pages of Jeremy A. Bastian's comic book Cursed Pirate Girl. The Michigan-based artist works with ink and a very fine brush to create panels that overflow with tiny details. Look closely and you'll see faces carved into the sides of rocks, a buckled shoe hidden on the ocean floor, even a dinner party turned upside down. It's these intricacies that make a young heroine's quest to find her pirate father all the more magical.\nCursed Pirate Girl has been making the rounds throughout the independent comic book world for several years now. Bastian self-published his first issue before it was picked up by Olympian Publishing. Two years ago, Olympian launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a hefty trade paperback. Their goal was $2500, but they raised over $36000. Recently, L.A.-based publisher Archaia, who brought Jim Henson's A Tale of Sand script to life as a graphic novel last year, picked up the book for a hardcover edition. This latest incarnation of Cursed Pirate Girl will be released on Dec. 12 and comes complete with new pages, a guest artist section (Hellboy creator Mike Mignola is amongst the contributors) and more.\nBastian and his art appeared Saturday night at Century Guild. The event marked both the opening of the Culver City gallery -- a Chicago transplant focusing on Art Nouveau and Symbolist work -- and the forthcoming Cursed Pirate Girl release. Below, Bastian answers our questions about his book and his art.\nHow long has the story of Cursed Pirate Girl been a part of your life? What was the evolution of the story from idea to the comics?\nAbout 7 years ago, I drew up a pirate woman in a more tattoo art inspired style for the art store I was working at one day and that was really the beginning of Cursed Pirate Girl. I came up with the idea for the story while in line for a San Diego Comic Con Hall H panel presentation of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse a year later. The book I had drawn, a supernatural G.I. Joe type of story with werewolves and zombies called Phantom Corp, didn't live up to my expectations and I was a little bummed. I thought, why don't I take that pirate woman and make her a girl and try my hand at a more all ages book? I remember I was in the line for Hall H and jotting down the idea of a bird climbing into a fish's mouth and then asking the little girl he was with, \"How do you know you don't breath underwater, have you tried?\" I also remember thinking that I should probably rewrite that a bit because I was afraid some kid might actually ask themselves the same question one day.\nWhen I got home from that SDCC I sat down and pieced together the story. I wrote it on tractor feed computer paper -- which I did not separate and measured it out to be about 26 feet of story -- and the story just started pouring out. It took three weeks to write this first story arc.\nWhat's your process for creating the illustrations in Cursed Pirate Girl?\nWell, when I started writing the script there were certain images that popped into my head that I knew were going to be really fun to draw. In fact that's pretty much how I wrote it, by coming up with really fun parts and just connecting them as logically as I could. When it comes to the individual ingredients though, that's where I have a lot of fun.\nI start with the basic idea, whether it is a character or object or setting, and then brainstorm ideas to really set it apart. For instance, the cage Captain Holly puts her into to await her demise the following day, I wanted the cage to be unusual. So I took a stroll around the house asking myself would that make a good cage? How about that? And since Captain Holly is the most like something from Alice in Wonderland (my male version of the Queen of Hearts) I decided it would be a tea pot shaped cage. And then the final ingredient to finishing an interesting image for me is the ornamentation, so all around the cage you will see bizarrely tea-themed adornment. I try to challenge myself with every page to out-create what I've done on the previous page.\nUp next: How the art show came together\nIt looks like you've worked with Century Guild before. Did you show work at the Chicago gallery? How did this L.A. art show come together?\nCentury Guild is the parent company which Olympian Publishing belongs to. I am very fortunate that every year I am allowed to set up a table at their San Diego Comic Con booth and hock my wares. I have done a couple of pieces for the Century Guild Grand Guignol show they put on in Chicago in October of 2011. They have been extremely supportive of my work and I don't think I would be the artist I am today if Olympian didn't allow me to produce CPG at my own pace. It really let me explore the limits of my imagination and gave me the time to do it right. Century Guild has moved their gallery from Chicago to L.A. and we had always talked about a gallery show featuring work from the book. I was really thrilled that I was going to be their inaugural show, and a bit terrified.\nWhat are the challenges that come with creating such detailed art for the comic book format? How do you handle those challenges?\nI think my biggest challenge is time. If I were working for a mainstream comic company there's no way they'd put up with how slow I am. The only way I'm able to handle that problem is because of Tom Negovan of Century Guild. He acts as my patron and gives me the financial freedom I need to work on the book and not have to cut corners or speed up my production rate. I want to create something that is totally free of compromise and to the best of my ability. If I'm putting out a comic it has to be the best I can do and so I'm always trying to improve.\nBriefly, what's your background in art? Were you always interested in comic books?\nOh yes, I knew I wanted to be a comic artist since I was maybe 3 feet tall and that was 3 feet 4 inches ago, so you know it's been a while. Art is a big part of my family and there are lots of artists in my family. It was the one thing I could always do fairly easily, and I knew it was the only path in life that would make me happy.\nMy father was a janitor for GM, a job he didn't really relish, but he had a family to support and he needed the security it gave him. He brought us up saying that having a job you love is the best thing you could ever hope for. My parents have always been encouraging and accepting of what I wanted to do with my life. My cousin Erin introduced me to comic books and I've been hooked ever since.\nI started by copying Silvestri, Arthur Adams, Bill Sienkiewicz, and so many more, building up my \"comicbook\" anatomy skills. I did a couple of little comic book stories for my high school creative publication the Palladium. And then I went off to Art School, my dream of after high school education. I went to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and graduated two years later, moved back home and started working on a comic book portfolio to show to editors.\nWho or what have been your biggest inspirations for Cursed Pirate Girl?\nA lot of the inspiration comes from the story books I read as a kid. I would go to the library and pick up any book of fairy tales or mythology I could find. Later I got into following the artists that made those works come to life, Arthur Rackham, Kay Nielsen, Walter Crane, Maxfield Parrish and so on. Then I really got into Dore and Durer and an even older world of illustration. CPG is kinda a lengthy love letter to all the stuff I love to look at.\n\"Jeremy Bastian: Cursed Pirate Girl\" will be on view again at Century Guild from December 6-8. The gallery is located at 6150 Washington Blvd., Culver City.",

        "raw_content": "Washington Redskins trademark\nThe Washington Redskins trademark saga can finally reach a resolution after the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling in Matal v. Tam, which held that the USPTO\u2019s regulations on registering disparaging or offensive marks violated the First Amendment. The prohibition against registering disparaging marks comes from a provision of the Lanham Act, which governs federal trademark law. The case reached the Supreme Court on a petition for certiorari from the USPTO, who asked the Court to examine the constitutionality of that specific provision of the Act. Ultimately, Justice Alito\u2019s opinion explained that trademarks are private speech, not government speech, and therefore restricting them under the Lanham Act violates the First Amendment guarantee of free speech. For the Redskins, who have not held a registered trademark in their name since they were forced to cancel it in 2015, this means that their potentially offensive mark can no longer be denied registration under the Lanham Act.\nMarshawn Lynch, owner of the \u201cBeast Mode\u201d trademark, will continue to enjoy exclusive rights to the mark, after the TTAB denied an appeal from someone trying to register \u201cBeast Mode Soccer\u201d for their sports apparel company. The applicant company, in conjunction with a soccer-training program, wanted to use the name, which the Board ultimately decided was too close to Lynch\u2019s mark, which he has been using consistently since 2009 for his own apparel brand. The likelihood of confusion among consumers was too high to grant the new mark.\nThe U.S. Army\u2019s Parachute Team, which has been known for over 50 years as the Golden Knights, has filed a notice of opposition against the Golden Knights, new NHL team in Las Vegas, for trademark infringement. The parachute team, who considers themselves to be a sports and entertainment brand similar to a hockey team, argue that they will suffer from dilution and consumer confusion if the NHL team is allowed to go ahead with their trademark registration. The new NHL team says they disagree with the possibility of confusion, but still may be unable to register their mark, pending the USPTO\u2019s decision of the appeal.\nMuhammad Ali Enterprises, LLC is challenging a video aired prior to Super Bowl LI, which featured images of famous NFL athletes, referring to them as \u201cthe greatest,\u201d alongside images of the late Ali. Ali Enterprises claims that the video, which came from Fox Broadcasting, violates the boxer\u2019s right of publicity via federal trademark law, and that the film gave audiences the wrong idea that the athlete endorsed the production. Ali Enterprises closely monitors use of the Ali mark, and regularly licenses it for use in similar promotional materials; they take issue with Fox\u2019s use because this particular use of the mark was not authorized. To be successful at trial, Ali Enterprises will be required to prove that Fox\u2019s use of Ali\u2019s name was \u201ccommercial.\u201d\nNFL Trademark Disputes\nEarly in 2017, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took action against Florida SouthWestern State College, who used the name \u201cBuccaneers\u201d for their newly rebooted football program. The Florida school applied to register the mark to use both for their sports teams as well as educational services, and Tampa Bay responded by asking the board to block the mark. Their argument? The school is in close proximity to Tampa Bay, and use of the mark to describe live sporting events could cause confusion among consumers. Ultimately, the two organizations were able to agree that the college could use the mark, as long as they included a disclaimer, denying any affiliation to the NFL franchise.\n\u201cFor Texans Use Only\u201d\nIn July 2017, seven NFL teams all filed lawsuits against Josh Morell, a resident of Philadelphia. Morell was allegedly taking advantage of NFL teams\u2019 goodwill with fans to register marks purporting to be for each team\u2019s \u201cuse only.\u201d For example, the Houston Texans took issue with Morell\u2019s trademark application to protect \u201cFor Texans Use Only.\u201d The other teams affected were the Eagles, the Giants, the Jets, the Cardinals, the Rams and the Patriots. All cases are currently pending.\nA Malaysian beverage company found themselves in opposition to the Detroit Lions, when the company attempted to register a mark for their \u201cBig Power\u201d drink, which featured a lunging lion, not unlike the one on the Lions\u2019 logo. The case is currently pending.\n\u201cRaiders, Baby, Raiders\u201d\nThe Oakland Raiders, on the cusp of a move to Las Vegas, has faced a lot of trouble defending against fans seeking to profit from the relocation. First, the team took issue when a North Carolina man attempted to exploit this move with an apparel design. Scott Keene applied to register the plain-text mark \u201cRaiders Baby, Raiders,\u201d with an eye at merchandising in anticipation of the team\u2019s arrival. The phrase is a play on the famous movie like \u201cVegas baby, Vegas.\u201d The Raiders came out on top of this one, as the application has been abandoned. The Raiders also took action against a Las Vegas resident who attempted to register the mark \u201cSilver & Black Nation,\u201d which is clearly in reference to the Raider\u2019s team colors. This one is not yet resolved.\n\u201cYou Falcon Right,\u201d\nThe Atlanta Falcons opposed registration of a trademark for the phrase \u201cYou Falcon Right,\u201d which was being printed on shirts and advertised across social media. Since the Falcons opposed the mark however, the application has been abandoned.\n\u201cTw Elves\u201d\nThe Seattle Seahawks, who already have a history of trademark-related litigation (see their 2006 lawsuit against Texas A&M regarding the use of the phrase \u201c12th Man\u201d to refer to their fans), went after local man for attempting to register the mark \u201cTw Elves.\u201d The Seahawks claim ownership over the mark \u201cThe 12s,\u201d and continue to pursue litigation to protect it. They are also currently in litigation against a Seattle apparel company, who applied to register the mark \u201cCity of the 12s.\u201d The Seahawks cited direct references to the team on the company\u2019s website.\n\u201cCalifornia Ramily\u201d\nA California man applied to register a mark of a spoof California Flag, including the phrase \u201cCalifornia Ramily,\u201d to celebrate the return of the Rams to Los Angeles. On the flag, the man took out the bear and replaced it with a ram. The team claims the mark, which has been traditionally used in reference to the Rams\u2019 franchise.\nSkolkovo Institute of Science and Technology, a Russian university, recently found themselves at odds with the Minnesota Vikings over their registration of the mark \u201cSkoltech.\u201d The mark, which is a nickname for the university, is similar to the Minnesota fight song \u201cSkol, Vikings.\u201d The Vikings franchise was unable to register their own trademark in \u201cSkol,\u201d because the Russian school\u2019s mark was already registered \u2013 a mark which had apparently fallen out of use. The litigation is still pending.\nProfessional athletes\u2019 tattoos may be the next frontier of copyright protection, based on a recent lawsuit by a tattoo artist against 2K Games, the creators of the NBA 2K video games. The tattoo artist, who famously tattooed LeBron James, claims that the video games copy his now-famous tattoos to a tee in their animation of the players, thus violating his copyright in the designs. A similar suit is already pending in New York, based on the tattoos of other NBA stars used in the NBA 2K games, and the arguments in both suits are similar. The game makers argue that the use is de minimis, as the tattoos can only be seen very briefly, and that the reproduction of the designs falls under fair use.\nPTAB concluded that a football helmet patent held by Riddell Inc. is invalid because several elements of the design fails the test of obviousness. They point all the way back to an image a football helmet printed in a 1970\u2019s department store catalogue, which shows a helmet with similar features to those listed in Riddell\u2019s patent design. Based on this, PTAB said that any person with ordinary skill would have been able to design a similar helmet based on the information available to them through prior art. Several other elements of the patent were valid, and Riddell is still working to resolve patent infringement suits with several parties regarding their helmet patents.\nWave Broadband, a Washington-based cable company and Comcast competitor, has brought a complaint to the FCC against Comcast, alleging that in order to meet minimum viewership requirements required by a distribution agreement, the cable giant is forcing Wave\u2019s most basic-tier subscribers to pay for several regional sports networks. The networks in question are owned by NBC, which in turn is owned by Comcast. In order to retain access to these regional sports networks at all, Wave was forced to pay $3.5 million to continue carrying the channels, thus continuing to force their subscribers into paying for the unwanted programming. Wave wants Comcast to bear the full antitrust brunt of this anticompetitive behavior, and argues that Comcast leveraged its market position to force Wave into the unfavorable distribution agreement in the first place. They also cite that this is not the first time Comcast has used their market power in NBC\u2019s favor.\nYouTube/MLB partnership\nA YouTube/MLB partnership that began in 2017 and has already garnered a billion views, will continue through the 2019 World Series, thanks to a deal inked in early March between the two companies. The agreement, which allows MLB games to be broadcast cable-free on the internet-streaming giant, is a huge win for YouTube. They will add an MLB Network channel to their fledgling YouTube TV service, but MLB will also name YouTube as a leading sponsor of the 2018 and 2019 World Series. While watching the MLB games on YouTube will cost extra for YouTube subscribers, it will mean that they will not have to have cable subscriptions to watch live games.\nManny Pacquiao v Floyd Mayweather Jr. PPV suit\nIt\u2019s no luck for pay-per-view subscribers who claimed not to get their money\u2019s worth out of the highly anticipated 2015 fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. After the matchup, a class action suit was filed on behalf of pay-per-view subscribers, claiming that Pacquiao had not been fully healthy for the fight, and therefore they did not get what they paid for when subscribing to the fight. Pacquiao had sustained a shoulder injury, which he did not reveal to fans until hours before the fight, when it was too late, and many fans had already purchased the broadcast. The fight between the two fan favorites nonetheless garnered record viewing numbers, with the event bringing in over $400 million. That suit was dismissed in August by a federal judge in California, who noted that fans suffered no damages because they got exactly what they paid for - a chance to see Pacquiao and Mayweather fight. Their subscription did not guarantee that the fight would be close, and the uncertain nature of competitive sports is what makes it exciting. Notably, this ruling came down the day before another big fight, which took place between Mayweather and MMA\u2019s Conor McGregor.\nESPN sharing of device serial numbers\nESPN Inc.'s sharing of an individual's Roku Inc. device serial number and a list of the ESPN videos watched does not violate the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA). The court held that an individual's streaming device ID number and videos watched isn't personally identifiable information (PII) protected by the VPPA. Under the statute, PII includes information that can be used to identify an individual, but only information that would \u201creadily permit an ordinary person to identify a specific individual's videowatching behavior.\u201d This decision continues to distinguish the First Circuit\u2019s case, Yershov v. Gannett, which held that an app user's mobile device identifiers could constitute PII under the VPPA, particularly when collected in conjunction with geolocation data. See Eichenberger v. ESPN, Inc., 876 F.3d 979 (2017).\nJillian Michaels v. Lionsgate\nCelebrity fitness guru Jillian Michaels won a $5.7 million arbitration ruling against Lionsgate in a dispute over content posted for free on YouTube. In addition to the multimillion-dollar award for lost past and future profits from DVD and digital distribution revenue, the award ordered Michaels' videos removed from YouTube. The legal issues focused on whether free YouTube videos devalue a creator's paid content. This decision represents a firm pronouncement that placing work on YouTube for free devalues it, and damages artists who create it.\nMartial arts fighters sufficiently alleged that exclusivity agreements required by fight promoter were an anticompetitive scheme under Sherman Act. See Le v. Zuffa, LLC, US Dist. Ct., D. Nevada. (2016).\nOhio State, Oklahoma State and Oregon State have congruent usage agreements regarding trademark rights to \u201cOSU.\u201d Yet each school has a federal trademark that awards it \u201cOSU\u201d rights on a state-by-state or county-by-county basis. Ohio State\u2019s current trademark covers nineteen states in the Midwest and on the East Coast, while Oklahoma State\u2019s covers seventeen western and southern states. In February, 2017, Ohio State University filed for apparel rights to \u201cOSU.\u201d Oklahoma State plans to file a notice of opposition. The dispute did not make it to court before the two sides reached an amicable agreement. Not only have they dropped the dispute, they've dropped the geographic divisions \u2013 thanks to the internet, changes in conference boundaries and increased non-conference games. \"Prior agreements as to the concurrent use of the respective (OSU trademarks) within specific geographic boundaries has been rendered impractical,\" the agreement says. The new agreement on \"OSU\" covers the entire United States and uses encompassing education, entertainment, apparel and merchandise. The two sides agreed to not use \"OSU\" in connotation with the other school's colors and mascots. They also agreed not to disparage each other as the fake OSU.",

(If your child is over the age of 18 you can qualify)\nyou provide care for at least 35 hours per week.\nThe person you care for is receiving one of these:\nhigher or lower rate attendance allowance\nthe highest or middle rate of the care component of disability living allowance\nthe daily living component of personal independence payment (either rate).\nYou will need to supply proof of any qualifying benefit.\nCarers who also work outside the home\nIf you have a job outside the home as well as providing care, you are still eligible for a council tax discount as long as you give care for at least 35 hours per week on top of your other employment.\nFor example, you can be in paid employment from 9am\u20135pm but provide care to someone else from 6pm when you return home, until 8am the following day when you leave for work (14 hours care a day).\nThe same applies if you only provide care at weekends, as long as you care for a minimum of 35 hours and reside permanently with the person you care for.\nIf you provide care for someone who is severely mentally impaired, read our section on council tax for people with severe mental impairments.\nIf you have left your home to provide care for someone else\nIf your main home is unoccupied because you have gone to look after someone else you may be entitled to claim an exemption from paying council tax at your usual address. The exemption will last for as long as you are away.\nTo qualify you must have changed residence in order to provide personal care for someone who requires looking after because of one of these:\ndrug, alcohol or mental disorders.\nYou will need to show that you are better able to provide the care their need from your new home rather than from your previous residence.\nCouncil tax reduction scheme and carers\nThe council tax reduction scheme is intended for those with a low income who may have difficulty paying their bill.\nIf you have been awarded a discount because some or all the people who live with you are carers or severely mentally impaired, you may still be entitled to claim council tax support against the remainder of your charge.\nJoint and several liability applies to any household where more than one person shares the property either as joint owners or joint tenants.\nIt means that all of the occupants are jointly responsible for payment of the bill.\nThis applies equally to households consisting of carers, non-carers, benefit claimants, or any other combination. It is very important therefore that everyone living in the property must register so that all of the names appear on the bill.\nAny council tax due for payment is the responsibility of all members of the household. We will not specify any person or persons to pay, so it is your responsibility to agree how the bill will be paid within the household. You will all be held jointly responsible for any arrears.",

        "raw_content": "Women whose male partners have high levels of hormone-mimicking chemicals known as phthalates take longer to become pregnant, according to new research.\nPhthalates are used in food packaging, plastics and personal products such as fragrances and shampoos. Similar to bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates are thought to interfere with hormone systems, but whether current levels of people's exposure to these chemicals are dangerous to their health is debated.\nIn a new study, the researchers measured urine concentrations of BPA and 14 different phthalates in about 500 couples who were trying to get pregnant. The couples also kept journals about the timing of their intercourse, menstrual cycles and pregnancy tests.\nNeither the men's nor the women's levels of BPA seemed to affect how long it took to get pregnant. However, it took couples 20 percent longer to get pregnant if the man had high levels of three common phthalates, according to the study. [12 Hormone-Disrupting Chemicals & Their Health Effects]\nThe findings suggest that \"exposure to certain phthalates can reduce the chance of conception for otherwise healthy couples,\" said study researcher Germaine Buck Louis, director of population health research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).\n\"The delays in pregnancy we saw were comparable to those seen for cigarette smoking, or with obesity,\" Buck Louis said in a statement.\nThe researchers examined only the time it took to achieve pregnancy, and not how the compounds might affect fertility. Further work is needed to determine if the compounds affect reproductive health and hormone levels, the researchers said.\nPrevious studies have linked exposure to BPA and phthalates with pregnancy problems in women, and findings from animal studies suggest these chemicals can hinder the maturation of egg cells, disrupt hormones and alter the development of reproductive organs, the researchers said.\nStudies have also suggested a link between men's hormone levels and exposure to BPA, and some have found high concentrations of BPA and phthalates among couples seeking treatment for infertility, the researchers said.\nThe new findings show that it's important to study both partners when assessing the effects of chemicals on pregnancy outcomes, Buck Louis said. \"Clearly, in studies of this kind, males matter.\"\nThe study was published online Feb. 18 in the journal Fertility and Sterility.\n5 Ways to Limit BPA in Your Life\n7 Ways Pregnant Women Affect Babies\n9 Weird Ways Kids Can Get Hurt",

Connect to find out!\nWork Culture at Bryant's Cocktail Lounge\nBefore Bryant's was a cocktail lounge, it was opened as a Miller Brewing \u201ctied house\u201d. Story has it that Bryant Sharp (pictured above, behind the bar with his wife Edna) opened Bryant's in August 1936 in its current location as a beer hall. Sometime around 1938, he decided to give up beer in order to serve only cocktails. As part of this transformation, he took out his jukebox and replaced it with a record player, on which he played only classical music. This was the birth of the first cocktail lounge in Milwaukee and, the story goes, the first cocktail lounge in Wisconsin. From here, Bryant's grew in to the swanky lounge it is today.\nThere are many stories that back up the timing of the establishment of Bryant's as a cocktail lounge. One of our purveyors who custom mixes some of our cocktail ingredients claims that we are their oldest customer, dating back to \"around the 1930's\". In addition, several people have told us that their grandparents frequented Bryant's the cocktail lounge in the early 1940's. We are unsure of when Bryant's was remodeled in to a cushy lounge, but some old timers have told us they remember the swanky Bryant's in the early 1940's.",

It is something different and new, not only in the UK but the entirety of Europe. Although we are not the first country to leave, Brexit stands out because of the magnitude of the UK and the foothold it has in global politics and the Global Economy. Britain had one of the largest economies in the European Union so hearing that we are officially leaving is a big deal to say the least. In this fear, some companies have either moved their HQ out of the country or have threatened it due to the scepticism of what will happen in the future. A lot of companies whose headquarters are situated in the UK but do a lot of business out of Britain are moving to other areas of Europe. This is because it is believed that England won\u2019t have the same connections and could potentially make commerce more expensive or more difficult.\nProbably one of the biggest changes noticed after the Brexit results were announced was the value of the pound. It dropped. In fact, it didn\u2019t just drop. It plummeted down to the tune of around \u20ac1.20 per Pound, the lowest it has been since the Eighties! \u2013 Remember the eighties? When Prince Charles married Lady Diana? Yes, it was that long ago \u2013 This will lead to imported goods being more expensive, which will drive businesses in the future to increase prices of their produce. Doubt and lack of direction regarding the future after Brexit and the pound will also make people less likely to invest into projects, as we don\u2019t know whether the Sterling will rise or fall again. It\u2019s not all doom and gloom though. Companies that export goods may see increased sales as their products will become cheaper which in turn will make business more competitive. Also, the pound value has been rising again and is forecast to rise in the near future so we will have to sit tight and see what happens in relation to that.\nSo what does the future hold for businesses when it comes to Brexit?\nFinally, even though it has been months since the vote to leave was decided, people are still unsure of what effects Brexit will have in the future. We know that this is a little bit inconclusive but that\u2019s the truth. There are predictions ranging from optimistic, which paint the future in a positive light, to predictions saying that there won\u2019t be a United Kingdom in 5 years. This theory says that Scotland will have another referendum which will end with them leaving the United Kingdom and joining back to the EU, and that Northern Ireland will join back with the rest of Ireland. Other predictions say that in the 5 years after Brexit we will be back to the economic and financial footing we were at previously and that other countries will follow our example and leave the EU. The unpredictability of what is going to happen links directly back to the fact that we are stepping into unfamiliar territory, so it is a game of \u201cwait and see\u201d\u2026\nIt\u2019s safe to say that no one really knows what will happen in the future of this small island. All we can do is sit, wait and hope that we have the right leadership that can make the best decisions to lead us forward\u2026\nLet us know what you think about the whole Brexit decision on our social media!",

        "raw_content": "UK: AFTER THE FALL.\nUK: AFTER THE FALL. - Chief executives whose companies are acquired can find their personal futures looking extremely bleak. A study of the largest 100 takeovers shows that many lose their jobs. So how can they best adapt to changed circumstances?\nby Duncan Angwin.\nChief executives whose companies are acquired can find their personal futures looking extremely bleak. A study of the largest 100 takeovers shows that many lose their jobs. So how can they best adapt to changed circumstances?\nWhat will become of Sir Rocco Forte now, after Granada's victory in one of the hardest fought takeover battles of recent years? It's unlikely that he gave much serious thought during the battle to life after defeat.\nHostile takeovers demand total commitment from the business leaders on both sides. Defeat cannot be contemplated if chief executives expect to convince shareholders, bankers, employees and the media of their case.\nThe ferocity of such battles is all the greater because chief executives have so much to lose. Although media interest in salaries and perks might suggest that loss of financial reward would be at the top of their minds, this is by no means so. Chief executives stand to lose much more than money. They could lose a kingdom, a position of power and influence which will be hard to recover. The demands of the job prevent them from investing time in effective safety mechanisms. For chief executives to be deposed is equivalent to their being banished into the wilderness - where, in the words of Yve Newbold of ProNed, 'They weep alone'.\nBusiness leaders' reputations are linked to their company's performance.\nA takeover bid is often taken to mean that the target company is underperforming.\nIt is therefore a direct challenge to the chief executive's guiding vision.\nIndeed the conflict between Forte and Gerry Robinson was presented in the press as a battle of business philosophies. Besieged chief executives fear for their reputations. Their self-esteem is threatened. Their dream (as one ex-chairman described it), of having 'vision realised' inscribed on their tombstones, could suddenly evaporate.\nIf the bid succeeds, feelings of loss and reduced status will not be confined to chief executives. Boardroom colleagues and senior subordinates will, to a lesser degree, share their anxieties. Nor does it have to be a hostile take-over that triggers these feelings. Even if it follows an agreed offer, an acquisition tends to create an atmosphere of conquest.\nThe 'acquired' executives can rapidly be demotivated by reminders that they were on the losing side. They will sometimes respond by becoming locked in a struggle with the new owners. Demonstrations of dominance on the latter's part will tend to hasten their departure - even if they are not fired.\nAny sudden change of ownership is likely to be followed by an exodus of senior managers from the acquired company. A 1993 study of major acquisitions in the US, by Donald Hambrick and Albert Cannella, found that 67% of all acquired senior executives had left within four years. Naturally, losses were greatest in the wake of hostile takeovers. An opposed takeover is typically conducted in an acrimonious atmosphere. Each side is highly suspicious of the other's motives. For bidders who win, to leave acquired top executives in place could heighten the risks of stonewalling or sabotage. Far safer to adopt Machiavelli's advice on how to deal with vanquished foes: eliminate them.\nA look at the 100 largest 1990-94 acquisitions in the UK shows that British senior executives on the losing side are even more likely than their US counterparts to make an early departure. In 70% of these cases, chairmen whose companies had been acquired (private as well as public companies and their subsidiaries, that is) were no longer with the same group 12 months later. Frequently this was because the posts had become redundant, the companies having been brought under the wings of their new parents. But often the ousting of chairmen and chief executives carries a deliberate message to the acquired company and the world at large - there is to be a change in direction.\nAs for the chief executives of the UK companies which changed hands in these transactions, 57% were no longer in the same position two years later. A minority, valued for its expertise and knowledge, will have been promoted - like David McCall, now chairman of Anglia after its acquisition by MAI. Others will have been promoted for continuity's sake (but often in effect sidelined). Many more will have gone, having resigned, or had their services terminated. Typically their departure occurs in two phases: on the day after the takeover (as happened after Tomkins' acquisition of RHM), or a year or two later, after they have helped to integrate the two businesses.\nThe chief executive of a poorly performing company is most likely to be treated as a scapegoat. In a study of successful turnrounds, researchers Peter Grinyer, David Mayes and Peter McKiernan found that, in 65% of cases, the chief executive (or chairman) was replaced by the new owners. But generally the chief executive of an acquired company has a one-in-two chance of survival. However, this norm can vary considerably depending on the kind of merger. Much depends on the level of integration: on how much technology and manpower are transferred from the new parent, and how closely operations are meshed.\nWhere a parent company plans to integrate an 60e acquisition closely into its own operations, it is comparatively unusual for the latter's chief executive to stay on. A study of UK takeovers in the years 1989-94 shows that in only 14% of such cases did the CEO survive (see diagram).\nThe prefigured break-up of Steetley, for example, and the integration of its parts into Redland, contained a clear statement that the target's chief executive and his strategy were both regarded as redundant.\nBut if integration is low and the acquired company enjoys a fair degree of independence (maybe because it's a good performer or because of the nature of the business), the parent will be less likely to make changes.\nThere is then a 75% chance that the acquired chief executive will remain, according to the study just quoted. Datastream International, which supplies information to the financial markets, is an excellent case in point having been successively acquired, by Dun & Bradstreet and then by Primark Corp, without management upheaval.\nA third post-acquisition option is for the acquirer to conduct a holding operation. Poorly performing buys may be kept at arm's length, to prevent them from 'contaminating' others. Or companies may be held speculatively while the parent decides what to do. In the latter case, the acquired chief executive tends to stay on, at least for a while, although a strategic limbo is generally bad for morale.\nDavid Willis, ex-deputy chairman of Meggitt Petroleum Systems, confirms that 'lack of strategic direction from the new parent can be a source of great frustration to acquired businesses'. Lack of parental interest might easily persuade the acquired CEO that it's time to move on.\nChief executives on the losing side of a takeover battle may nevertheless occupy a fairly strong position, as the diagram shows. The importance and/or performance of their company - relative to the predator - will also bear heavily on their chances of survival. Even though theircompany's performance is no better than average, as long as it is superior to the acquirer's, their chances of staying in the job will improve greatly.\nIf the acquisition's performance is weak compared with its new parent's, the CEO in question is much less likely to be kept on.\nFor the chief executives who find themselves out of work following a takeover the first question is usually: how to get back in? The customary route today lies via the handful of executive search firms which act as gatekeepers to the recruiting boards. These are generally agreed that for chief executives to lose their positions as a result of a takeover does not necessarily reflect badly on them. But the way chief executives of a public company handled their exit could matter a great deal.\n'What really counts', says David Shellard a managing director of headhunters Russell Reynolds, 'is the way in which the chief executive conducted the defence of his company.' Shellard quotes the example of Stuart Wallis who, as chief executive of Fisons, helped to double the group's share price before its acquisition by Rhone-Poulenc Rorer last October. Wallis, says Shellard, 'handled himself well. With no tarnish to his name there should be no stigma attached to his having been acquired.'\nSome chief executives have gone to extreme lengths to defend their positions in takeover battles, resorting to poison pills or ramping up profits.\nActions liable to be damaging to the business will do executives' reputations no good, and media coverage could blacken their name further. In the aftermath of a takeover, perception becomes reality. If ex-executives are not soon approached by headhunters, it is all too probable that they will 'fall off the radar screen' and never be heard of again.\nFour options the ex-CEO might want to consider\n1 Return to the coal face The most popular option is to get back into a chief executive role as soon as possible. If former chief executives have not passed their mid-50s, they have probably not yet realised their business dream. While they will almost never consider a lesser job than CEO, they may be prepared to accept that role in a smaller company, perhaps in a related industry. Alan Jones, for example, succeeded in switching to a bigger company: after being ousted from Westland, he is now chief executive of BICC.\n2 Enter the entrepreneur It could suit the style of many business leaders to adopt a more entrepreneurial role. Thus Michael Guthrie, who was chairman of Mecca Leisure before its acquisition by Rank, set out - with venture capital backing - to look for opportunities in the food sector. He is chairman of Pizzaland as well as of motorway service area operator Pavilion.\n3 A pluralist role The ex-chief executive may have had enough of standing exposed on the parapet and prefer a portfolio of four or five non-executive directorships. The takeover by Nestle led Rowntree chairman Kenneth Dixon to add non-executive positions at Bass, Yorkshire TV and British Railways Board to his vice chairmanship of Legal & General. A collector of non-executive positions might find that the chairman's role itself becomes available.\n4 A life of leisure After a career of high earnings, ex-CEOs might want to pursue leisure interests. They could, for example, devote time to realising some childhood dream. This could be combined with chairmanship of one or two charitable bodies, even the odd non-executive directorship. But from age 60, retirement is likely to be increasingly favoured. The CEO will by then almost certainly have 'fallen off the screen'.",

        "title": "Is a DIY website right for your business? - MARION Marketing",
        "raw_content": "Is a DIY website right for your business?\nI\u2019m sure you\u2019ve seen the ads for companies like Wix and Squarespace. They offer free or low-cost DIY websites that are \u201call you need\u201d or \u201cstunning.\u201d The question is, as a small to mid-sized business owner or marketer, is a DIY website like this really \u201call you need?\u201d\nThere are a lot of things to consider when deciding how to build out your website. Included in these considerations must be:\nWhat is the purpose of the website?\nIs there a necessity or desire for a unique design for the website?\nWhat are your search engine optimization needs and expectations?\nWhat are your hosting performance needs and expectations?\nRight out of the gates let\u2019s address whether you should even be considering a DIY website for your business. So, is a website from a company like Wix or Squarespace a viable option for your business?\nHonestly, the answer is maybe, but with a few caveats. In this post, we will briefly cover these caveats and hopefully, provide a little food for thought when evaluating whether a DIY website is right for your business.\nWe\u2019ve reached a point in the current marketing environment where having a website for your business feels obligatory; it\u2019s just something that you do. Don\u2019t get me wrong, you need a website for your business, but the \u201cwhy\u201d of it all depends on the nature of your business and how your website will be used.\nAre you a local shop that, more than anything, just needs to show up in local search results? Do you want to sell you goods or services online? Do you plan to blog frequently? Are you planning to utilize a content marketing strategy?\nThese are important questions to answer before beginning the process of building your website and will influence whether you feel a DIY website is a good fit for you.\nFor example, if you plan to blog frequently as part of a larger content marketing strategy then you would probably be better served to develop your website using WordPress. If you are creating an online store of some kind, you would probably be better served to build your site using an eCommerce platform like OpenCart, WooCommerce, or even Shopify.\nThat is not to say that you cannot blog or sell items via a DIY website platform, with most you can. But working with a backend system specifically designed for your needs is always going to be a better solution than an \u201call-in-one\u201d solution.\nDoes your company need a unique website design?\nDIY websites are generally attractive, but not unique. That is the nature of the beast. These website platforms are designed around offering range of templates that can be customized, but they are templates none the less.\nBringing up the use of templates is not an indictment. In fact, there are plenty of successful businesses running websites that use pre-designed templates and no one is the wiser. Templates have their place and can even offer a better alternative to a poorly designed custom website.\nYou have to decide if your branding or required functionality necessitates custom designing and to what extent it does.\nFor a long time, DIY website platforms were regarded as garbage from an SEO perspective. Some of that reputation was earned with poor URL structures and heavy use of flash, but some of it was a result of annoyed web developers and SEO techs trashing their competition. The fact of the matter is that regardless of how they used to perform the most popular DIY website platforms are fine for SEO today.\nPlease note the use of the word \u201cfine\u201d for SEO. Not \u201cgreat\u201d or even \u201cgood,\u201d just \u201cfine.\u201d\nThe bottom line is that with a website from a DIY platform like Wix or Squarespace you\u2019ll get all, or at least most of your on-page SEO basics covered. The basics. If you work with or plan to work with an SEO expert, they may find themselves hamstrung by the limited capabilities of the platform or at the very least frustrated by the lack of control that they have.\nYou can get by with a DIY website from and SEO perspective, but if you see SEO as an integral part of your marketing mix, and especially if you work with an SEO expert, you should seriously consider the long-term impacts of going with a DIY website over a more traditional website setup so you\u2019re not paying those SEO rates for nothing.\nWhat are your hosting and performance needs and expectations?\nYour hosting and performance needs are inevitably tied to the first consideration regarding the purpose of your website. DIY websites like Wix and Squarespace are a hosted solution, meaning that hosting is part of the whole package.\nFor most small to mid-sized businesses, a hosted solution like what you get with Wix or Squarespace is perfectly adequate. In fact, Wix has good server uptime and relatively good server response time. It also comes with 500+ MB of storage which should be adequate.\nMore important than what you currently need regarding hosting, is what your needs will be in the not too distant future. You may be considering starting out with a DIY website and then moving to a more traditional solution once you are more established or have a more reliable revenue stream. One of the glaring problems with a DIY website is its limited ability to change and grow.\nYou may find that it is not as easy as you would expect for you to take your domain name and your content and transition to a more traditional platform when the time comes. That is not to say that it cannot be done, but there is no easy, quick process for doing this, and it can become cumbersome.\nIf you plan to move to a more traditional platform within a couple of years, it may make more sense for you to invest a little money now in getting the right platform setup with a basic design and invest in a more custom design when you are ready.\nFinally, we come to what is, in most cases, the consideration on which your decision will be made. So, what is your budget? If the answer to that question is under $1,000, then a DIY website is probably for you. Unless you are a very technically inclined person with some experience in web design or development, you most likely won\u2019t be able to get a more traditional website up and running for under $1,000.\nIf your budget is between $1,000 and $5,000, then you need to look carefully at the considerations that we have gone over today and decide what makes the most sense for your business. In this range, you may be able to get a reasonable amount of your needs covered, depending on your needs. Approaching your website in stages could allow you to work towards your goal without resorting to a low cost or inferior alternative.\nIf your budget is above $5,000, you should be able to work with a web design company to build out a website on a more traditional platform that is more suited to your specific needs. This is, of course, dependent on your needs and your budget. Don\u2019t expect to custom program a Facebook replacement for $10,000. But for most small businesses $5,000 \u2013 $10,000 is a very reasonable range for a custom WordPress site that is set up nicely for future success.\nBe careful before you jump on the DIY website bandwagon. Wix and Squarespace offer a great service for the cost, but you get what you pay for.\nIf you consider your website an important part of your marketing strategy, and everyone should consider their website an important part of their marketing strategy, you should invest in it accordingly. How much you invest will ultimately depend on your needs and your budget. Perhaps a DIY website is a wise choice for your business, and perhaps a more traditional platform is best. Regardless of the outcome, take the time to consider the choices carefully before you commit to something that you will live with for the next several years.",

        "raw_content": "Certification at Masteroast\nWith the increased awareness of the social, economic, and environmental facets of coffee production, sustainability initiatives, including certification, are becoming ever more significant. The widely recognisable marks that appear on coffee labels are great for the coffee industry as a whole as they help ensure that our soil stays in great condition, farmers are paid fairly for their work and that the lungs of the earth are protected.\nThese systems have been put into place to help ensure that the corresponding organisations are as widely recognisable as possible. Every packet that includes any of these certifications must be submitted for review to the governing body it's associated with, this is to ensure that the label is the correct size shape and colour and not distorted in any way. If you would like to know more about the certification design rules or the organisations themselves click on the icons above or to the left of certification description. Each link will include the up-to-date vector images for designers\u2019 use.\nFairtrade's social, economic and environmental Standards are set for both companies and farmers and workers who grow coffee. Farmers and workers' rights and the environment are protected. They receive at least the Fairtrade Minimum Price and an additional Premium to invest in business or community projects of the community's choice like healthcare, education and clean water\nThe Rainforest Alliance Certified\u2122 seal means that farmers follow more sustainable agricultural practices that protect forests, rivers, soils and wildlife, while being good community neighbours. Rainforest Alliance certification also helps ensure workers have improved access to safe working conditions and decent living conditions, health care and education for their children.\nThis logo on your packet of coffee means very few chemicals and pesticides were added at anytime during its production, Masteroast aim for as few as possible. The Soil association supports organic farming and recognize the direct connection between our health and how the food we eat is produced.\nThis logo will usually be present next to the Soil Association logo shown above and states that the product has been independently certified by the European Union under their own regulatory framework. This improves and reinforces the EU organic farming standards both within the EU and all produce imported or exported.\nThis is the clean process of decaffeinating coffee that is both good for your health and easy on the environment. Some processes can use damaging chemicals and they don't remove as much caffeine as they may suggest. The Swiss water process uses the pristine water of the the coastal mountains of British Colombia, Canada to gently decaffeinate the bean a process that can also guarantee 99.9% caffeine removal. This seal or wordmark is the definitive way to tell if your coffee has received the premium decaffeination process.",

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s What Experts Know About How Marijuana Affects Your Body\nA comprehensive 440-page report seeks to dispel fact from fiction\nCurrently, 28 states and the District of Columbia have legalized medical marijuana, and eight of those states plus D.C. allow pot for recreational use, too. The legal landscape is changing, but lots of questions still remain regarding marijuana on the health front.\nNow, a new report seeks to clarify the health effects of pot. Published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, this comprehensive, rigorous report reviews the evidence of scientific research published on marijuana since 1999\u2014and makes some important conclusions.\nFirst, the researchers reviewed the evidence on marijuana\u2019s therapeutic effects for health conditions. The takeaway? There\u2019s conclusive evidence to show cannabis or cannabinoids is effective for treatment of chronic pain, helping chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and improving spasticity symptoms with multiple sclerosis.\nOn the other hand, there\u2019s no evidence, or insufficient evidence, to show that pot can help treat cancers, irritable bowel syndrome, epilepsy, symptoms of ALS, or motor symptoms in Parkinson\u2019s disease.\nWhen looking at incidence of cancer, the researchers concluded there\u2019s moderate evidence showing no link between marijuana use and lung cancer or head and neck cancers. And there\u2019s insufficient evidence to support a link either for or against pot and incidence of esophageal, prostate, and bladder cancers. (Find out if you should get the PSA test to screen for prostate cancer.)\nAs for other health outcomes, the researchers determined that there\u2019s substantial evidence that pot use worsens respiratory symptoms and causes more frequent episodes of bronchitis. But there\u2019s no evidence that marijuana increases your risk of heart attack\u2014and no or insufficient evidence that it increases your chances of dying prematurely.\nStill, evidence supports the fact that pot use can hurt you in other ways. There\u2019s substantial evidence showing that marijuana increases your risk of car accidents, and moderate evidence that it can lead to cognitive impairments in learning, memory, and attention. (Here\u2019s what you need to know if you\u2019re traveling to smoke legal marijuana.)\nWhile the comprehensive review of the available evidence does give us a better understanding of what marijuana really does to your body, there\u2019s a lot we still need to learn. More research\u2014comprised of high-quality, controlled trials and observational studies\u2014still needs to be done, the researchers say.\nWhat Marijuana Might Do to Your Brain\nHere\u2019s How Marijuana May Help Brain Cancer Patients Live Longer\nHow Safe Is Marijuana, Really?\n\u200bHere\u2019s What Happens to Illegal Pot Use When Medical Marijuana Is Legalized",

        "raw_content": "Key facts on the needs of looked-after children\nLooked-after children (LAC) are a vulnerable group who, compared with their peers, have significantly more educational and mental health problems, and on leaving care have worse outcomes as adults. Nationally, LAC and care leavers are between four and five times more likely to self-harm in adulthood. They are at five-fold increased risk of all childhood mental health, emotional and behavioural problems. Looked-after teenage girls are 2.5 times more likely to become pregnant than other teenagers.1\nThe number of looked-after children continues to rise. There were 157 looked after children as at 31 March 2015, an increase of 5% compared to March 2014 and an increase of 19% on 2011.\nTable 1: Numbers and rate of children looked after compared to national averages as at 31st March 2015\nSource: SSDA903 2011-2015\nIn the year 2014-15 there were 115 new admissions into care (relating to 107 children). A larger proportion of starters (28%) still in care at the 31st March 2015 were aged 16 and over. This is double the national proportion of starters in this age range.\nWhile Merton has seen a rise in its looked-after child population in the past 4 years the rates per 10,000 population remains stable and we continue have one of the lowest LAC populations when compared to our statistical neighbours. Merton has the 3rd lowest rate among its statistical neighbours. There are only nine (four in London) local authorities with a rate per 10,000 less than Merton.\nFigure 1: Rate per 10,000 population of children looked after 2015 against Merton's statistical neighbours 2015\nThe age profile of children looked after in Merton differs significantly from the national picture with Merton caring for a large number of older looked after children aged 16 and over. At 31 March 2015, 38% of our looked after children were aged 16 and 17 compared to 22% nationally. The inverse trend is reflected in the 0 to 9 year olds at 25% to the national 41%.\nFigure 2: Percentage of children looked after by age group compared to national 2015\nThe table below shows the significant increase in the older population over the previous 5 years. Review of local information confirms that many of the 16 and 17 year olds come into care late in their adolescence and the reason for accommodation is often outside the control of the Local Authority (UASC, homelessness and LASPO).\nTable 2: Age of children looked after by year as at the year end\nSource: SSDA 903\nFigure 3 below shows overall, 62% of the LAC population is male and 38% female. The breakdown of the gender/age data highlights the fact that our older LAC cohort is significantly over-represented by males. This reflects the fact that the majority of the UASC and LASPO referrals received relate to males.\nFigure 3: Percentage of children looked after at 31st March 2015 by age and gender\nThe majority of children looked after in Merton are from a white background. This is a lower proportion than the general resident population (by 17%). There are fewer Asian or Asian British than the all persons Merton population, although numbers of looked-after children have risen from 2014. Mixed ethnic backgrounds, Black or Black British heritage and \u2018other ethnic groups\u2019 have looked-after children proportions greater than the resident population.\nFigure 4: Difference in ethnic group of looked-after children from the Merton resident population\nNote: Other Ethnic Groups is a census defined category and represents a number of ethnic groups where ethnic heritage cannot be defined in the Asian, Black White or Mixed groups. The category includes Afghanistani, Arab, Egyptian, Filipino, Iranian, Iraqi, Japanese, Korean, Kurdish, Latin / South / Central American, Lebanese, Malay, Moroccan, Polynesian, Thai, Vietnamese, or Yemeni.\nChildren from some (not all) minority ethnic backgrounds are over-represented in our looked-after child population.\nThe variable experiences of black and minority ethnic children in the looked after system indicates a need to develop social work understandings of the diverse population with whom we work. This is further evidenced by the peer audit programme in Merton which has identified ethnicity and diversity as an area for practice improvement with training planned for all social work practitioners in 2015-16.\nThe report demonstrates an increase in the category of \u2018other ethnic groups\u2019 from 2013 to 2015. In 2015 62% of these looked-after children were known to the authority as Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC).\nThe five-year trend data indicates that the ethnic origin of our looked after children has remained relatively stable (Figure 5). An interesting shift in the demographic has seen a decrease in the number of Black/Black British children from 29% in 2011 to 20% in 2015.\nFigure 5: Nationality of the Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC) population\nChildren ceasing care in 2014-15 to return home to live with parents/relatives has decreased to 37% (from 48% in 2014). Nationally one third ceased care and returned home. In 2015, 35% of Merton\u2019s looked-after children moved to independent living, an increase of 37% on 2014; this is above the national of 9% and reflects the higher proportion of older young people in our LAC cohort. This is further evidenced by the fact that in 2014-15 there was a 50% increase on 2013-14 of young people ceasing care turning 18, placing potential pressure on care leaving services.\nTable 3: Reason for children leaving care during 2014/15*\n*by number of children not number of episodes - if a child left care twice during the year the latest reason for care ceasing has been used\n**for 2015 this excludes those who left care to live with parents or relatives with no parental responsibility. These have been grouped under 'other\u2019\nChildren are looked after in a variety of settings; foster care, children\u2019s homes, residential special schools, youth offending institutions and a small number are in hospital settings. At 31 March 2015 68% of looked-after children (106 children) were placed in foster care (this is just below the national figure of 75%). 58 children (59% of our looked-after children) were placed with in house foster carers; this is a significant improvement on the 2014 figure of 49%. This continues to be an area of scrutiny for us due to the impact on budget, but also due the fact that agency placements are often outside of the borough.\nThe most common use of agency placements is for adolescents, as a number of our in house carers are only approved to take foster children up to the age of 10 years. The Access to Resources Service continues to undertake targeted recruitment of teenage carers, however there is a Pan London issue with many agencies and Local Authorities competing for a small number of carers.\n18% of Merton\u2019s looked-after children are placed outside the local authority boundary and more than 20 miles from where they used to live, compared to 13% nationally (2014) and 18% for London. Merton is 6th among its 11 statistical neighbours (2014). 74% of all LAC placements made in 2014-15 were within a 10 mile radius of Merton and 60% of all LAC placements were within a 5 mile radius.\nFigure 6: Percentage of looked-after children placed outside local authority boundary and more than 20 miles from previous residence\nFor some young people placements away from their home community are a key part of the care plan as a result of anti-social behaviour/risk management. For some the needs of the young people are such that they require specialist placements which are not available in Merton or surrounding boroughs.\nFor all children being placed outside of the borough the Head of Service and DCS is required to sign off agreement for the placement. Care plans for these children and young people are reviewed to ensure that where possible young people are supported to return to their home community at the earliest opportunity. A more detailed analysis of these placements is available in Merton\u2019s \u2018Securing Sufficient Accommodation Statement for Looked After Children and Care Leavers\u2019.\n14% of Merton looked-after children had three or more placement moves during 2014-15 compared to 10% nationally.\nTable 4: Percentage of children looked after at 31st March with three or more placements during the year ending 31st March\nNotes: From 2015, children missing from placement no longer count towards this indicator.\n46% of Merton\u2019s looked-after children are in stable placements; the technical definition of stability is defined by the DfE as the percentage of looked-after children aged under 16 who have been looked after continuously for at least 2.5 years who were living in the same placement for at least 2 years. Merton\u2019s performance is significantly below the 2014 national average rate of 67%.\nTable 5: Percentage of looked-after children with stability in their placement during 2014-15\nNote: The percentage of children looked after aged under 16 at 31st March who had been looked after continuously for at least 2\u00bd years, who were living in the same placement for at least 2 years, or are placed for adoption and their adoptive placement together with their previous placement last for at least 2 years\nPlacement stability has been an area of focus for Children\u2019s Social Care and a detailed analysis of LAC stability was undertaken in April 2015. The resulting report identified key messages in relation to what we do well, what our challenges are and as such what we could do better. An improvement plan was put in place and our mid-year data is showing improvement in this area.\nHealth outcomes for looked after children\nLAC Health outcomes in 2015 are above national average in dental checks and annual health assessments. Immunisations are in line with national (2014).\nMerton has the lowest proportion of children looked after identified as having a substance misuse problem for the last five years at 6%. This is above the percentage of children and young people nationally (2014). Of the children and young people offered an intervention, 60% accepted and received an intervention.\nTable 6: Healthcare of children looked after continuously for at least 12 months, ending 31 March\nSource: SSDA903\nPlease also see LAC Health Needs assessment JSNA chapter 2015.\nMerton has 93 19-, 20- and 21-year-old care leavers (2014/15). This increase has a direct relationship with the increasing number profile of 16- and 17-year-old looked-after children in previous years.\nIn 2013-2014 the DfE amended the cohort of Care Leavers considered in the SSD903 to include young people aged 20 and 21 from the traditional care leavers aged 19, and this should be taken into account when considering the year-on-year comparator data.\nTable 7: Numbers of care leavers 2011 to 2015\n2012 (31st march\nTable 8: Age and gender of care leavers\nPercentage of care leavers in suitable accommodation\nMerton has a smaller proportion of care leavers in suitable accommodation (76%) than national (81%), it is however noted that local performance has improved by 10% over the past 12 months.\nTable 9: The percentage of care leavers who were in suitable accommodation 2011 to 2015\nNote: In 2014 the DfE extended the care leaver cohort to include 20- and 21-year-olds. As a result the figures for 2011-2013 include only to 19-year-olds while the figures for 2014 and 2015 include Care Leavers of all ages.\nPercentage of care leavers in education, employment or training\nOver half of former care leavers are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET). This has become an area of focus for us as we have seen a year-on-year decline in performance.\nTable 10: The percentage of care leavers who were in education, employment or training 2011 to 2015\nA deeper analysis of this data identifies that 19% (10 young people) are NEET due to illness/disability and pregnancy/parenthood and therefore may not be in a position to take up an ETE opportunity. As part of the Care Leaver Task Force we have reviewed the intervention resource in this area and have now agreed the additional resource of an ETE worker to work solely with the care leaver cohort.\n11% of Merton young people aged 19-21 were in higher education (2014), this compares favourably with the National 2014 return of 6%. Further data is provided in the Virtual School Annual Report.\nFigure 7: Percentage of former care leavers aged 19 to 21 who were in higher education in 2014\nEvidence about what works to improve the health and wellbeing of looked-after children\nNational Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has produced guidance on the health and wellbeing of looked-after children and young people (NICE PH29 2010) and more recent quality standards (NICE QS31 2013), which define best practice and describe high-priority areas for quality improvements. These focus on promoting resilience, including warm nurturing care, a sense of belonging and emotional support.\nThe Chief Medical Officer\u2019s Annual Report 2012 outlines recent evidence on the risk factors associated with entering care and outcomes.\nThere are increasing numbers of LAC who require timely health assessments and other services.\nThere is a local and national emphasis on increasing the numbers of foster carers and speeding up the permanency process for prospective foster carers and adopters in relation to LAC requiring timely health assessments.\n1.^ Department of Health (2013).

        "raw_content": "Metal ceilings have been used in building design for several years. These ceilings originated all the way back in the 1880s and were used as a more affordable way for people to dress up the space. It was also a functional choice back then that served as effective fire protection for homes and businesses. This was extremely important because back then, their lights and source of cooking came mainly from the use of open flames.\nThey are still being used in today\u2019s modern design and aesthetic because they offer a more affordable alternative to other materials, they come in a variety of colors, patterns, and styles, and are still just as functional. They provide fire protection, insulation, and require minimal maintenance but are still durable and are made to last.\nDespite their early popularity, metal ceilings lost traction during the mid-1900s because of the Great Depression. There was a much-increased demand for the steel and metal materials used to make these ceilings due to World War II. However, the popularity of these metal ceilings would make a strong comeback years later. However, they would utilize tin materials that were more readily available during and following the war.\nSince the metal ceiling tiles were so strong and durable and were made to last, their historical significance is preserved in older buildings from the previous century, and they are still in good shape even today.\nMetal ceiling tiles throughout history were most commonly used in more commercial applications such as in churches, schools, libraries, train stations, hotels, and other public locations. Although, you could also find them in many residential applications as well.\nMetal Ceiling Tile Manufacturers in History\nBetween 1890 and 1930, there was an influx of metal ceiling tile manufacturers with about forty-five companies going strong in the United States. Most of these manufacturers were located in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York.\nThe Style and Aesthetic of Metal Ceiling Tiles\nPeople began adopting the metal ceiling tile look because it was reminiscent of European style and offered a very classic look. There was also a time in which artists were commissioned to create elaborate patterns for the metal ceiling tiles to be used in the home. When put together, the tiles would create a detailed and ornate design. This also gave the illusion that the tile was much more expensive than it actually was which gave the home a feeling of richness and wealth.\nMetal ceiling tiles were often used on the walls and ceilings of old hotel lobbies to add some drama and character to the building in addition to its more practical benefits as stated above. They were also lightweight, easy to install, and relatively inexpensive and made a good alternative to wallpaper or paint.\nThey were often used to cover up old and worn existing ceilings that were in desperate need of repair because it was more affordable for the shopkeepers then replacing and repairing the original walls and ceilings.\nA classic tin ceiling design included the tiles, molding, filler, and cornice and were installed using intricate patterns. These ceilings were often used as focal points in commercial and public buildings like churches in the early 1900s. However, they were also used to adorn residential homes as well and mimic early European style.\nThe ceilings could be used in more elaborate and drastic designs or could be used as smaller accents throughout the space.\nRestoration of Metal Ceiling Tiles\nDue to the nostalgia and history that come with metal ceiling tiles of the past, there has been quite the demand for restoration over the last few decades. Metal ceiling tiles are definitely in style for more modern applications today, and with the large variety currently available, they can be used in several applications throughout a home or business.\nThey add class to any room while also introducing intricate designs, beautiful patterns and colors, and different metals that coincide with a number of different themes and styles.\nA Patterned History\nPatterns of the past included many intricate and elaborate designs and embellishments. They also used color, borders, and beautiful patterned designs that nodded to the Victorian style of the time.\nFor more of a Romantic revival, homes would also incorporate texture along with the elaborate designs of the metal ceilings in the home.",

And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.\n15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;\n16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:\n17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.\n19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,\n21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,\n23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,\n33 Which was the son of Aminadab, which was the son of Aram, which was the son of Esrom, which was the son of Phares, which was the son of Juda,\n34 Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor,\n36 Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech,\n38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.",

Students choose a different topic and apply to the Graduate Diploma. Upon the successful completion of the four (4) required courses (12 units) in this program, the student earns a second credential, a Graduate Diploma. Students apply to the MEd degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. Upon the successful completion of the four (4) required courses (12 units) in research, the student earns the MEd degree. At this stage, the final four courses ensure that students graduate with research depth.Upon completion of the MEd Interdisciplinary Route, students will have completed a total of 12 courses (36 units) and received a Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma and an MEd in Interdisciplinary Studies.\nTopics are available in this Link\nYou're from Grande Prairie? What a coincidence!\nFour grad students from northern Alberta city, each with a passion for outdoor education, meet while taking Werklund distance degree\nBy Clayton MacGillivray\nSometimes it takes a 700-kilometre journey to connect with colleagues and collaborators from one\u2019s own turf. This was the case for four students from the Grande Prairie area who enrolled in the Werklund School of Education\u2019s Master of Education program.\nThe Adult Learning specialization in the Werklund School of Education\u2019s Master of Education program allowed four students from the Grande Prairie area to work together and bring their shared passion for outdoor education to the table. Photo courtesy of Gavin Peat\nWith Grande Prairie's population closing in on 70,000, it is hardly surprising that Rikki Christie, Keenan Geer, Ryan Shelly and Chelsea Stone did not know each other until they met on the University of Calgary campus. But when you consider that three members of this troop are high-school teachers and the fourth works as a parks and recreation coordinator, their worlds become a bit smaller.\nBesides geography, a passion for outdoor education and adult learning unites this group.\n\u201cThis program was the catalyst in bringing together educators and community stakeholders who are all involved in promoting healthy living practices in Grande Prairie,\" says Shelly. \"It has been great to connect with fellow Grande Prairie residents and work on topics that will have a clear and positive impact on the overall health of our community.\u201d\nAdult learning specialization allowed for full-time work while earning a degree\nProgram co-ordinator Gavin Peat was impressed with how the group come together as a team.\n\u201cTeachers and outdoor enthusiasts sometimes struggle to implement the ideas we discuss in the program because they usually work in isolation so it was exciting to see how, through a variety of activities during last summer\u2019s course and subsequent online coursework, they demonstrated a strong ability and desire to support each other,\" he says.\nThe blended nature of the Adult Learning specialization \u2014 classes offered both on campus and online \u2014 was an important component of the program for Christie and her classmates as it enabled them to continue to earn a living while working toward their degrees.\n\u201cWe're all very delighted that the University of Calgary offers a program that allows us to continue working full-time, while taking graduate studies in a field that is very relevant to our work and personal interests,\" she says.\nDifferent stakeholders in outdoor community learn from each other\nFor his part, Geer valued the personal interactions he had during the program.\n\u201cThe cohort has provided us the ability to work with so many different stakeholders in the outdoor community,\" he says.\n\"We have people from government, parks, kindergarten, senior high, etc. We all have different optics to look at the course from and we have learned a lot from each other because of this.\u201d\nProgram fosters long-term friendships and inspires future collaborations\nThis didn't mean the program was without challenges. For Stone, travelling to Calgary was the biggest hurdle. \u201cIt is a really far drive and as teachers, we are not encouraged to take time off work during the school year so flights are really our only option.\u201d\nBut Geer says the benefits far outweighed the drawbacks and adds, \u201cWe are receiving a top-notch education and guidance from two extremely gifted instructors that make any distance travelled worthwhile.\u201d\n\u201cI now have three good friends and I hope that if we have the opportunity to get together we will. We are planning on implementing programs into our schools and parks. I think we will stay in touch.\u201d\nAnd now this collaboration will not involve a 700-kilometre trek.\nThe Master of Education Interdisciplinary degree is a flexible, laddered program that allows students to progress through their courses with the same cohort and choose from several areas of concentration based on their learning interests. Areas of concentration are updated on a yearly basis.",

        "raw_content": "Use Of Third-Party Packages In The Shop\nThe PC-based controls entering the market today provide a more seamless and less expensive approach to integrating computers into the shop, and there are several third-party packages available to run on them. The term \"third-party package\" includes a wide variety of products.\nThe PC-based controls entering the market today provide a more seamless and less expensive approach to integrating computers into the shop, and there are several third-party packages available to run on them. The term \"third-party package\" includes a wide variety of products. Some are made up of only software, others only hardware, and still others are a combination of both. This article describes some of the more common packages being integrated into PC-based CNCs today and discusses their uses and benefits to the shop.\nNorton pcANYWHERE\u2014This is a PC third-party software package from Symantec Corp. that allows a user at one PC to connect to another PC, and then work as if there. It works through a modem or a local area network connection and is a good solution for companies that wish to connect PC-based CNC machines to the shop office or to remote technical centers. This software package provides the capability needed for monitoring a machine's status to get information such as feed and speed override values, alert and diagnostic history records, part program information, tool data, and so on.\nGageTalker\u2014GageTalker Cimworks Visual SPC is a third-party data collection software package designed with the factory floor in mind to reflect how the factory floor runs and how managers work. It is a Windows-based package designed to manage data collection.\nMany shops have shown interest in the GageTalker portion of this package, which provides the ability to interface a gage to a PC-based CNC through a serial port connection. Once the gage data is collected, this package provides a wide range of standard statistical calculation such as CPK, PPK, CPM, X-Bar and Sigma. When the package is combined with a \"Visual Designer's Report Generator,\" a user can select statistics and charts to meet a customer's request to supply customized traceability and event information about parts and the process in printed form.\nCIMpro/WIN 32\u2014This is a CNC programming system, supplied by Intercim Corp., which consists of an APT processor, postprocessor, and tool path verification for machines up to five axes.\nCIMpro is a desirable package for shops that have a wide variety of CNC machines combined with a wide variety of parts that are expected to be run on any available machine. With CIMpro running in a PC- based CNC, a generic source code can be downloaded to the next available machine where it is processed and postprocessed in seconds in the control, creating a unique part program for that machine. CIMpro only maintains the generic source files, greatly reducing the number of files to be stored and maintained.\nQuickscan Barcode Reader\u2014This is a hardware package manufactured by PSC, Inc. that includes a hand-held barcode reader and \"y\" connector cable for splicing into a standard PC keyboard. For PC controls that utilize a standard PC keyboard, the barcode reader becomes a fast and efficient way of entering data into a control. Barcode input may be substituted for entering any data that is input through a \"data entry window\" where an operator is expected to enter an alpha or numeric combination of characters from the keyboard. Possibilities for using the barcode reader are selecting a part program, entering tool data, entering fixture offsets, and so on.\nQuickCam and CU-SeeMe\u2014These consist of a combination hardware/software package provided by two different companies. This package has become very popular with PC desktop users and is now finding its way into the shop. QuickCam VC is a small low cost video camera manu-factured by Connectix, Inc. that interfaces to a PC through the parallel port. CU-SeeMe is a software package that enables PCs to record, send and display real-time images. CU-SeeMe software has recently been packaged with pcANYWHERE software. QuickCam and CU-SeeMe, along with an appropriate sound card, allow PC users to see and talk to each other.\nThis list of third-party packages is certainly not exhaustive in that almost any PC compatible third-party package is a good candidate for shop use in a PC-based control. There is little doubt that PC third-party package use will increase as creative shops find new and innovative ways of using these packages for solving manufacturing problems now that PC-based controls have made their integration possible.",

He later served in the same role for the NBA\u2019s Miami Heat and had worked in the league\u2019s headquarters before then-NBA Commissioner David Stern sent him to Sacramento to be the Kings\u2019 chief revenue officer while the franchise was navigating a change in ownership and planning to erect Golden 1 Center in downtown Sacramento.\nBut David\u2019s undoing came when the FBI and federal prosecutors began investigating him last August after a Kings employee found unusual entries on an old computer he had used. That discovery of a computer folder labeled \u201cTurbo Tax\u201d led David to face 11 counts of wire fraud, money laundering and aggravated identity theft.\nDavid was sacked June 1, took the Miami post in July and left that position after the federal investigation was revealed by The Sacramento Bee in August.\nThe Tuesday plea deal saved David a grand jury indictment on a host of other federal charges tied to the operation, but his fate remains unknown. He could face a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison for wire fraud and another two years for ID theft, and be forced to pay $500,000 in fines. However, Shubb said he will wait for a federal probation report before determining David\u2019s punishment.\nProsecutors are expected to argue for an 8 1/2-year sentence. David\u2019s lawyers are expected to push for a much lighter sentence of no more than two years.\n\u201cHe understood what he did was wrong,\u201d Reichel said in December.\nAs part of the plea, the former executive will pay back the $13.4 million he stole, Reichel and Seitles said. The properties have been seized by authorities and the proceeds are being held to repay David\u2019s victims.\nYelovich said the parties continue to work out the properties\u2019 sale and forfeiture of proceeds, saying talks were \u201cstill ongoing.\u201d\nAfter the hearing, Seitles said, \u201cAll victims will be made whole. The money will be returned to the Sacramento Kings and Golden 1.\u201d\nDavid declined to speak with a reporter, but sought out Kings attorney William Portanova. The pair shook hands and briefly exchanged words before David\u2019s attorneys led him to an elevator to the U.S. marshal\u2019s office.\nThe Sacramento Kings in a short statement after the plea hearing said they applauded the work of Sacramento federal prosecutors and the FBI \u201cfor their continued efforts to quickly bring Jeff David to justice and ensure all assets owed to the Kings have been recovered in full.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s thought crime sparks debate on travel restrictions\nConsider these facts. One of the Paris bombers was posing as a refugee with his passport, and so, racing against time, Congress took up legislation to increase FBI monitoring of refugees fleeing the war in Syria and Iraq that would come to the U.S., of which 10,000 are expected.\nAnd, then, after the San Bernadino attacks where one of the killers was a Pakastani here on a fianc\u00e9e visa, Congress responded with legislation to require additional screening in the visa waiver program \u2014 which waives visa requirements in 38 Western countries \u2014 for anybody who has recently visited Syria, Iraq, or other terrorist havens identified by the Department of Homeland Security in consultation with the Director of National Intelligence and the State Department. Certain reports have indicated that these will also include Iran and Sudan.\nWould these pieces of legislation have actually helped to stop the attacks?\nThe San Bernadino killer did not get here on the visa waiver program, and the pair were not said to have traveled to Syria or Iraq. And the Paris attackers, while one was posing as a refugee, the others were either born in or were French nationals born to immigrants from Algeria, Morocco, and elsewhere throughout the wider region. They all slipped through the cracks, and in the process have exposed massive intelligence failures by Western agencies who seemingly now lack sufficient capacity to identify the current crop of bad guys.\nThe visa waiver restrictions in the House bill would only affect participants in the visa waiver program \u2014 Andorra, France, Liechtenstein, San Marino, Australia, Germany, Lithuania, Singapore, Austria, Greece, Luxembourg, Slovakia, Belgium, Hungary, Monaco, Slovenia, Brunei, Iceland, Netherlands, South Korea, Czech Republic, Ireland, New Zealand, Spain, Denmark, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Estonia, Japan, Portugal, Switzerland, Finland, Latvia, Republic of Malta, Taiwan, Chile, and the United Kingdom \u2014 who happened to travel to the aforementioned terror states.\nMeaning, the legislation will not affect the tens of thousands of visas issued every year from North Africa, the Middle East and Asia. In 2014, according to data compiled by the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. accepted 1,984 visas from Syria, 2,181 from Iraq, 3,858 from Jordan, 2,008 from Lebanon, 578 from Saudi Arabia, 7,049 from Iran, 13,917 from Pakistan and so forth.\nNow, one common denominator is that some of the attackers in Paris had traveled to Syria. On the other hand, the only recent travel mentioned for the San Bernadino killers was to Saudi Arabia.\nThe verdict therefore is the legislation would not have prevented the San Bernadino killer from getting her fianc\u00e9e visa.\nSee the problem? Congress is playing a game of whack-a-mole with travel restrictions, attempting to address a real problem but actually accomplishing very little. It is chaos \u2014 well-intentioned chaos perhaps, but chaos nonetheless \u2014 and it won\u2019t stop the next round of attacks in its current form.\nEven a pause in all travel from the wider region, as Americans for Limited Government called for last month, would only have stopped some but not all of the killers had it been in place prior to the attacks. Same problem with Donald Trump\u2019s even wider call for a travel ban on all non-citizen Muslim travel, as neither addresses the home-grown killers in our midst.\nStill, all of the proposals to varying degrees of efficacy share one thing in common: They all contemplate some range of travel restrictions to and from majority Muslim countries where the terrorists are known to come from.\nBut each proposal is not being treated with the same lens by today\u2019s political and media culture. If the travel restrictions proposed contemplate those coming out of North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, or specifically, their nationalities, or where they traveled to, it draws zero ire. Those proposals are allowed to be considered by today\u2019s thought police.\nYou mention the fact that every single one of the killers was Muslim, as Trump did, and propose making religion the identifier for a travel restriction as opposed to nationality \u2014 even though the other proposals contemplate restrictions that would admittedly restrict Muslim travel from the region \u2014 and you\u2019re labeled a bigot or a demagogue.\nThat was Trump\u2019s thought crime. He identified Islam instead of playing the politically correct game of simply calling for regional travel restrictions for some countries in the world of Islam. Had he called for certain nation-based restrictions, even broad ones such those issued by Franklin Roosevelt in World War II against Germans, Italians, and Japanese, the thought police would have had to allow it.\nFocus on the religion, and it became a crime.\nNow that we\u2019ve outlined the rules of not only discourse, but which travel restrictions might be acceptable by today\u2019s culture, let\u2019s consider how the killers likely view their own nationhood. Were they French nationals, in the case of the Paris attackers? Were they American citizens or Pakastani immigrants, in the case of the San Bernadino killers?\nIslam, for all intents and purposes, is as much a nationality, culture, and even a geographic region as it is a religion. Ummah in Arabic means \u201cnation,\u201d and depending on the interpretation, could refer to the whole Islamic nation or community. The caliphate, both in history and its modern iteration sought by Islamic State, is an example of attempts to bring a single government or rule to the entire Ummah, that is, all Muslims in the world.\nThat is simplifying a bit for the purposes of brevity \u2014 for more on Islamic State\u2019s interpretation of the Ummah we recommend this Abu Dhabi-based Trends Research & Advisory paper on the topic, \u201cISIS Rhetoric for the Creation of the Ummah,\u201d \u2014 but the Ummah is a critical concept for Western countries to comprehend in considering who the enemy is and how they identify themselves. It won\u2019t be written on their passports.\nThe nationality and nations traveled to identifiers currently used by Congress, and even the wider regional identifier sought by Americans for Limited Government last month, to do with travel restrictions admittedly ignore completely this central tenant, which is a transcendent concept of nation and of a people that crosses borders.\nVery simply, this is the dilemma facing every intelligence agency in the West.\nThose radicalized by Islamic State will not recognize the legitimacy of secular governments anywhere, since their goal is hegemony of the Ummah. Looking at their passports to check which countries they traveled to will matter a lot less than identifying a belief in this goal. In that context, the attacks in Paris and San Bernadino were attempts to expand the Ummah to other nations outside the world of Islam or at least to hurt those nations.\nIn other words, you do not need to be from or have traveled to Syria, Iraq, or other terror havens to believe in the hegemony of the Ummah, but you do need to be a Muslim.\nConsidering the radical ideology involved rests on a belief in this sort of transcendent nationhood, asking which country they are from won\u2019t matter. Meaning, the discussion of Islam prompted by Trump is actually the right one to have. Until intelligence agencies can get a handle on who the extremists are, broad travel restrictions may be the only way to keep any new killers from traveling to the U.S., and even then, we have to accept that many of them may already be here.\nHi!

        "title": "ISIS Barbarically Murders Steven Sotloff & the Entire Internet Watches \u00b7 The TRUTH About Motherhood",
        "raw_content": "ISIS beheaded Steven Sotloff and the world watched, no one intervened. We let it happen.There was no rescue.I am fairly sick over the fact that our world has become so desensitized to the vulgarity and cruelty of the world that not only was it allowed to happen, we were allowed to watch the video. It wasn\u2019t just photo stills, it was his brutal murder. All we could do is sit stunned and watch. It made me sick in my stomach, just the way I felt the day I watched the planes crash into the World Trade Center.\nThe news is over saturated with entertainment. While sad, these things seem inconsequential in comparison to what happened to Steven Sotloff and the brutality with which it was carried out. Leaked photos are not a national crisis in comparison to beheadings. We live in a world today where reality television is a mainstay and we\u2019re all flies on the wall of society. But still, we do nothing. Nothing has changed except that now we KNOW, we see the awful things happening in real time. It\u2019s disgusting. We are going to raise a generation of desensitized children. Soon, beheadings will no longer shock us at all. One day, my children\u2019s children will not be rattled to their core as I am today.\nWhat are we doing? I just watched the video that ISIS released of the American Journalist, Steven Joel Sotloff, a human being, have his head cut off very crudely with a hunting knife in the dessert, by a masked ISIS executioner as restitution for what our government has done. The brutality and coldness with which the executioner beheaded another human being, snuffed his life out, was nothing short of evil. I am in shock.\n\u201cjust as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people\u201d\nI don\u2019t know how these things happen. How people, the general public, become pawns of government politics and terrorists. This man was not a soldier. He did not go to a foreign land to fight. He posed no threat. He was just someone\u2019s son, doing a job, and because he happened to be American in a country that hates Americans, he was murdered like an animal. He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. The executioner crudely and callously sawed his head off with a hand held knife. It wasn\u2019t a smooth motion to slit a throat, it was a hack job. This took calculated effort and a desire to finish the job. It took hatred. There was no compassion or humanity. There wasn\u2019t even the courtesy of an ax. There was only brutality.\nThe whole thing was filmed and at the end, there in the dirt lay some mother\u2019s son murdered, dead in the sand with his head placed on top of his corpse in some disrespectful, cartoonish way like a trophied kill by a hunter only this wasn\u2019t an animal, it was a human being. This man was someone\u2019s everything. He didn\u2019t deserve to be beheaded. He didn\u2019t die in the name of his God or his convictions and beliefs, he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time and no one rescued him.\nRight before Sotloff died, he spoke calmly to the camera speaking words that I am sure he was forced to say under extreme duress, but he was eerily calm and resigned to his fate. In the end, he didn\u2019t even resist. I think he had given up or was sedated or perhaps, just refused to give his executioner that last satisfaction of his fear. He\u2019d given up waiting for his hero to rescue him. Given up on living. Given up on trying and wishing and praying.\nI hate the Internet for giving these terrorists a venue. I won\u2019t share the video as I don\u2019t want to be part of the problem and really, I am doing you a favor by not sharing it. Don\u2019t look for it. I will never forget what I saw in that video. It shook me to my core. I can\u2019t unsee what I just saw and I can\u2019t stop crying for this poor man and his mother who so desperately begged for his release and his life. It was warned that Steven Joel Sotloff would be beheaded after journalist James Foley was beheaded two weeks ago. Still, Sotloff was not rescued. Our government did not heed the warnings. No one did anything, other than his mother who publicly begged for her son\u2019s life. Now, she gets to see her son, who looks tired and gaunt, in his last minutes before he is murdered speaking his last words and then she has to watch helplessly as he is savagely butchered by a terrorist. And finally, the baby boy that she once held in her arms and soothed to sleep, is laid out on the floor like garbage as a warning to Americans.\nI understand that we do not negotiate with terrorists but the longer we take to \u201cdevelop military strategies\u201d safely from within the U.S. borders, more innocent Americans ( real life human beings not ideas or policies) are being brutally murdered, in real time, by ISIS. Did we learn nothing from 9/11/01? What are our leaders waiting for, ISIS to come to our country and go door-to-door beheading innocents to prove their point? How many mother\u2019s sons have to die before we do something?\nToday, I am saddened , sickened and shocked with the world and more specifically by ISIS and the Internet. I pray for the family of Steven Joel Sotloff, especially his mother, whose heart I know is irreparably broken, that she can know peace in the knowledge that those assholes can no longer terrorize him or hurt him.\nWhy Christine Blasey Ford is a Hero to Inspire a Generation of Girls\nYou\u2019ve Got to Do Right Woman\nMourning Orca Mother Won\u2019t Let Go of Dead Baby Calf and I Get It",

This is the start of a series of reports that\u2019s takes you on a journey across Europe. the determination required, along with the trials and tribulations traveling and racing the World cup series can bring.\nBec Wins & Dan 6th\nLocation: Gr\u00e4nichen, Switzerland\nAnother week, another race. It was a successful weekend of racing for #becanddan. This time located in Gr\u00e4nichen, Switzerland, is the biggest Swiss cup of the year with over 900 participants with both Elite Men's and Women's categories.\nThe Swiss have done us Aussies proud with temperatures over 30 degrees with the races at 12.45pm and 3pm. We definitely felt the heat of the day.\nHere's what Dan has to say about the Swiss Cup: \"I had a really good start and was able to lead the first lap, while I struggled on laps two and three I was able to follow wheels which helped me get back into the race after dropping to 12th position. From there I was able to push hard for the remaining three laps finishing with a sprint for 5th and 6th position. I am slightly disappointed to miss the podium in 6th but I am happy with my progress and I am looking forward to some more fine tuning in the lead into the next block of World Cups.\"\nNow let's see Bec's perspective of the races: \"I was a little nervous for the long road climb to start the race but was able to get into the single track in front for the first descent. The field split up pretty quickly and I was able to get away on lap 2 of 6. The heat and longer race was going to be a big factor in the second half of the race so it was important for me to keep riding at my own rhythm as well as good fuelling and hydration throughout the race. This wasn't an easy task as I felt pressure for the entire race knowing the quality of riders that were chasing me.\nIt's feels great to get a win and it's important for me to enjoy it as they don't come easy!\"\nThank you for reading the Chronicles of #becanddan, and getting behind their endeavours in representing Australia at a high tier level. Your support is very much appreciated!",

        "title": "THE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE FREE TERRITORY OF TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING \u2013 Free Trieste Movement",
        "raw_content": "THE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE FREE TERRITORY OF TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING\nFree Trieste Movement October 8, 2015 September 23, 2016 BLOG \"ENVIRONMENT AND LEGALITY\", LEGALITY AND HUMAN RIGHTS\nThe emergency of poverty is taking over a land without defences. This is what is happening in the Free Territory of Trieste under temporary administration of the Italian Government.\nHere, the drama is even more painful by the necessity of Italian authorities to cover a situation that is caused by nothing but their own mismanagement.\nA mismanagement granted by the collaborationists, local politicians and turned into an ongoing predation of the properties of the State under trusteeship, continuing for decades at the expenses of the citizens under administration and of the whole international community.\nThis is how the Free Territory of Trieste was turned into kind of a modern colony, where the only modern aspect is the mean used by the State of Italy for the spoliation of the citizens of the Free Territory of Trieste from all of their wealth, making them the new slaves of the post-Fascist Republic of masonic mafias.\nRevenue Agency, Fiscal Police, Equitalia, Customs Agency, they are the perpetrators of this international crime. Obviously, with the covers of judicial authority, which is here of the interests of the occupying State, being its controller and guarantor.\nImpoverishing Trieste does not only consist in taking goods away from its citizens by forcing them to pay undue taxes and the robbery committed removing the whole State property \u2013 transferred to the State of Italy arbitrarily \u2013 of the Free Territory of Trieste, but also when it comes to the annihilation of development opportunities in the place that could have become the main economic exchange area of Europe, with this area transformed in the meaningless, degraded suburban of Italian corruption.\n40,000 Triestines are forces to emigrate to escape poverty. 50,000 Triestines are on the edge or below the level of poverty. One Triestine out of three is in this condition. This is the result of 60 years of Italian administration. And administration which, by its own misgovernment, has destroyed the Free Port of Trieste and wasted hundreds of thousand of billions of Euro and dozens of thousand of jobs.\nWhile municipal police intensifies the fight to beggars, who are just the citizens who were abandoned to their own fate by the institutions that should have protected them, the anger of the folk of the ones marginalised increases. And, along with it, the will to redeem themselves from this illegitimate and strictly mafia-like administration.\nLast year, the Free Trieste Movement launched an alarm on this outbreaking situato that involves more and more people. The complaint of Free Trieste to the Italian Government and to judicial authority, for an urgent intervention to protect the citizens who are starving and desperate, for being abandoned by local public administrations, yet, there were no answers, and no actions were taken.\nFollows an abstract of this complaint, which emphasizes the responsibilities \u2013 and the criminal liabilities \u2013 of the provisional administrators of the Free Territory of Trieste. Take note that, despite warning all city councillors of the Municipality of Trieste, none of them considered it necessary just a mere answer. As if ignoring it solved the problem.\nThe humanitarian emergency in the Free Territory of Trieste is about to explode.\nTHE FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC RIGHTS OF THE CITIZENS OF THE FREE TERRITORY OF TRIESTE (abstract from the international presented on 15.09.2014 by the Free Trieste Movement) \u2013 Read it all at this LINK\n5. Trusteeship of the Italian Government and social assistances.\nThe entrusted administrator is bounded to fulfill the duties od a good government even as for the rightful and fair distribution of social assistances, which have the double purpose to grant vital needs, social dignity and the fundamental rights of persons facing poverty, as well as reverting the recessive, economic spiral caused by the increasing impoverishment of the citizens under the survival income defined on the grounds of minimum consumes for daily needs.\nTo obtain said positive effects it is necessary that the action of the Government:\n\u2212 includes in social assistances both material forms of support such as money and essential goods and services, including housing, and socio-psychological or cultural forms of support;\n\u2212 provides said assistance proportionally to the needs and within the actual possibilities of expenditures of the Administration;\n\u2212 accompanies the efficacious distribution of social assistance with the highest possible valorize the possibilities for the economic and professional development of the community.\n6. Extension of social rights to basic income for citizens\nRecommendation CEE No. 441 of 1992 has adopted, among European criteria of social protection, also the principles of basic income.\nAs for basic income for citizens and when it comes to the Free Territory of Trieste, we mean a public, monthly additional amount of money, granted and regularly provided to all residing citizens over the legal age, if and as long as they have no income deriving either from a job or a pension that would possibly grant their ordinary, daily needs in regard to the actual costs of essential goods and services.\nA controlled distribution of basic income grants a feedback of constant balancing of the economic and social system; the expense is compensated with the increment of collected consumption taxes and by the reduction of the intrinsic costs of fragmentary social assistance.\nDue to this, basic income is suggested by the EU and it is already assigned, by different means, in nearly all States of western Europe, the only exceptions being Greece, Italy and the Free Territory of Trieste, entrusted to the Italian Government.\nThe powers of special, trusteeship administration assigned to the Italian Government allow it to extend, at any time, within the legal system of the Free Territory of Trieste basic income as well as any other social assistance, regardless to the legal system of the Italian State, as that is a third State.\n7. Artificial impoverishment of the Free Territory\nSince decades, the Free Territory of Trieste is undergoing an increasing, artificial impoverishment, which is not caused by cyclic crisis of general economy, rather, that is caused by harmful actions of the Italian Government, entrusted with its administration.\nThe administering Italian Government does actually violate the international mandate, simulating the sovereignty of the Italian State over the Free Territory, despite that having ceased at the coming into force of the Treaty of Peace of Paris on September 15th, 1947.\nBy simulating that, the administering Italian Government does illegally subjects the Free Territory and international Free Port of Trieste to the direct enforcement of Italian laws, including these concerning ports and undertakings, employment, and taxation, which are some of the most burdensome in the world and violating, under different perspectives, the fundamental rights to work, fair retribution, equal taxation and other social protections.\nBy doing so the administering Italian Government does, in particular:\na) illegally impose, from all incomes coming form undertakings, work or pensions of the Free Territory of Trieste two or three times greater than what is owed, including the payment to the enormous public debt of Italy, that the Free Territory of Trieste is exempted to pay following a specific norm of international law (Treaty of Peace of February 10th, Annex X, Article 5: \u201cThe Free Territory shall be exempt from the payment of the Italian public debt\u201d);\nb) in order to favor the ports of the Italian State, it violates the duties of international law (Annex VIII of the Treaty of Peace, Article 5 of the Memorandum of Understanding of London) concerning the maintenance of the international Free Port of Trieste, which is the main source of direct and indirect work for the Free Territory and, this way, is illegally paralyzed, damaging both Trieste and the International Community;\nc) subtracts to the Free Territory its properties: real estates (state properties, including the Port and low-income houses), taxes, treasure and reserves, to illegally assign all of that to the Italian State;\nd) it currently gives back to the administered Free Territory about 10% of the earnings that, by committing illegal actions, it has either subtracted or prevented.\nThese severe violations of the trusteeship mandate committed by the administering Italian Government do illegally force companies and people of Free Territory to face obstacles as for both law and taxation as well as the unemployment levels and the poverty of the failing economy of the State of Italy, yet, non of this is compatible with either the potential and special economic needs of a City-State with an international Free Port.\n8. Obligations of the administrators of the Municipality of Trieste.\nDespite the simulation of Italian sovereignty, which does no longer exist since 1947, the bodies of the Italian State grounded within the Free Territory of Trieste by the administering Italian Government do, de facto and exclusively, fulfill the functions of bodies of the entrusted administrator. Due to this, these are as well bounded to respect the functions, powers and provisions following from this mandate, as well as to respond to administrative, civil and criminal justice.\nAs already stated at paragraph 4, the actions of social assistance in the Free Territory of Trieste are an administrative obligations and primary expenditure for all bodies delegated to fulfill these, regardless to the alleged sovereignty that justifies these.\nAccording to the principles of Italian legal system, extended by the Italian Government, entrusted with the administration of the Free Territory of Trieste \u00abMunicipalities are entitled of administrative functions concerning social action on a local level (\u2026). Said functions are exercised by Municipalities by adopting, as for their territorial bases, the most suitable assets to manage expenditures and the connection with citizens (\u2026).\u00bb (Law. 328/2000, Article 6. No. 1).\nThe same principles establish that Municipalities act as autonomous bodies (Article 128 of the Constitution of the Republic of Italy) and their own responsibility: \u00abMunicipality is the local body which represents its community, takes care of its interest and promotes its development \u00bb (Law 142/1990, Article 2).\nFollows that there is no doubt that the Municipality is directly, exclusively and discretionary subject to the responsibility of establishing, as for its territory, the assistance its citizens need and to do that as an obligatory intervention and primary expenditure of each administrator; due to this, they are also liable for criminal, civil or administrative offences when it comes to the choices they either make or approve through their deliberations.\n9.Violations of the obligations of the Municipality of Trieste and alleged offences.\nAlso, there are reliable evidences (both documents and testifies of witnesses) of the fact that, despite the very severe social emergency affecting a very significant part of the citizens of Trieste, the Municipality, in person of the members of the current Municipal Administration, lead by mayor Roberto Cosolini, as well as by the previous two Administrations of then mayor Roberto Dipiazza, through their budgets, destined and keep destining to social assistance sums largely inferior to the needs and legitimate demands of the citizens.\nAt the same time, these same administrators did continue to add to the budget significant amounts of money to be destined to secondary or unneeded expenditures and, by doing so, these are subtracted to the mandatory, primary expenses, which are related to the constitutional duties as for social assistance.\nThe consequent refusal to provide economic assistance to citizens in need, supported with the argument that there would not be money for that in the balance causes severe damages to the ones demanding that, as this way they are unable to pay their rents, services and other assistance and, even, some of them cannot buy food for themselves and their families, falling into tragic situations, which do often lead to illnesses or drive them to extreme actions, up to suicide.\nDue to this, said actions committed by public administrators and officers allegedly consist in the criminal or culpable offences of forgery, omission or refusal of Official Deeds, fraud, personal injury and inciting suicide. Precisely:\na) the alleged offence of abuse of office (Article 323 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) and fraud (Article 640 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) against the persons entitled to receive assistance when it comes to the deliberative actions of the Municipal administration money that should have been destined to the mandatory expenses regarding social assistance to use that for non mandatory expenses, allowing the unfair enrichment of third parts;\nb) the alleged offence of forgery (Article 479 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) and fraud (Article 640 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) when it comes to the administrative action of restricting the criteria used to provide social assistance by adopting parameters of minimum subsistence figure (line of absolute poverty) which are inferior to the actual cost of living in the Municipality or omitting to update said standards;\nc) the alleged offence of forgery (art. 479 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) and fraud (Article 640 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) against the persons entitled to receive assistance when it comes to the adoption of other administrative act falsely portraying as reduced the seriousness of general or individual need to social assistance, in order not to provide that;\nd) the alleged offence of forgery (art. 479 of the Italian Criminal Procedure), refusal of Office acts (Article 328 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) and fraud (Article 640 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) against the persons entitled to receive assistance when it comes to the spoken or written refusal of owed social assistance by arguing that the Municipal Administration lacks the money that would require, whenever said lack of money is not absolute, rather, it is the consequence of the choices of Municipal administrators to destine the money they had to use to increase owed, primary expense for social assistance to something else;\ne) The illegal actions listed in the three paragraphs above may reasonably cause a serious state of poverty to the citizens and their families, damages to their physical and mental health (Article 582 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) or drive them to suicide (Article 580 of the Italian Criminal Procedure) by unfairly depriving them of inderogable assistances needed for material and social surviving;\n10. International complaint and criminal complaint\nFollowing all of the above, as well as recalling all other acts notified before, the Free Trieste Movement:\n1.

Demands to the Security Council of the United Nations, as guarantor of the Free Territory of Trieste, to oversee the fulfillment of these and other obligations deriving from the mandate of the Italian Government for its role of trustee, and to envision, in case of default, to assign the trusteeship mandate to the Government of a Country which has no conflict of interest with the Free Territory (Austria, Switzerland or else) or to a special Authority of the United Nations, until the appointment of the Governor;\n3. Notifies to the Prosecutors Office of the Republic at Trieste, considering this as a complaint-report versus mayor Roberto Cosolini in regard to the aforementioned facts and alleged violations at paragraph 9 and versus the assessors and Councilors of the Municipality of Trieste that might have had a complicity to that through deliberations, even when it comes to budgets.\nDocument confirming reception of the complaint by the City Council of Trieste\n\"Environment and Legality\", 1954, 2014, basic income, blog, complaint, English, Free Territory of Trieste, Free Trieste Movement, FTM, FTT, human rights, International Free Port of Trieste, Italy, legality, Mafia, Memorandum of Understanding of London, petition, Roberto Giurastante, september 15th, translation, Treaty of Peace, Treaty of Peace with Italy, Trieste\n\u2190 European Petition of Free Trieste: new documents and first international adhesions\nFree Trieste requests the suspension of Italian taxation to the E.Z.I.T. \u2192\n10 thoughts on \u201cTHE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE FREE TERRITORY OF TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING\u201d\nTriesteLibera June 18, 2016 at 1:54 PM\n@RobertoGiurasta in English: https://t.co/48fydGP5fJ\nTHE DRAMA OF #POVERTY IN THE FREE TERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND ITALIAN PREDATION https://t.co/48fydGP5fJ #Trieste #FTT https://t.co/ZAda7LVqEG\nRT @TriesteLibera: @RobertoGiurasta in English: https://t.co/48fydGP5fJ\nRT @TriesteLibera: THE DRAMA OF #POVERTY IN THE FREE TERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND ITALIAN PREDATION https://t.co/48fydGP5fJ #Trieste #FTT http\u2026\nSilviaVerdoglia June 18, 2016 at 9:29 PM\n@RobertoGiurasta THE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE #FREETERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING #humanrights https://t.co/48fydGP5fJ\nTHE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE #FREETERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING by @RobertoGiurasta #humanrights https://t.co/48fydGP5fJ\nRT @TriesteLibera: THE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE #FREETERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING by @RobertoGiurasta #humanrights https\u2026\nTHE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE #FREETERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING by @RobertoGiurasta #humanrights https://t.co/JnkPstHoxg\nRT @TriesteLibera: @RobertoGiurasta THE DRAMA OF POVERTY IN THE #FREETERRITORY OF #TRIESTE AND THE ITALIAN PLUNDERING #humanrights https://\u2026",

        "raw_content": "Accidents at Work We Provide Tailored And Innovative Solutions.\nAccidents at Work Lawyers Glasgow, Scotland\nAn accident at work can be unexpected and life changing. Feeling unsafe at work is not something that should be tolerated. If you have suffered a workplace accident you may be entitled to compensation for the injury you have suffered.\nOur personal injury team at Miller Samuel Hill Brown is led by legal experts who can advise on whether you are entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim, and guide you through the legal process that follows.\nWorkplace Injury Compensation Lawyers Glasgow, Scotland\nWe spend a large part of our lives at work, however we do not expect to be injured there. No matter what your job involves, or whether you are working as a full-time or part-time employee, or as a temporary worker, your employer has a duty of care to take reasonable steps to ensure your safety at work. A workplace accident is very rarely intended, but it can often be avoided or prevented through simple compliance with health and safety regulations. If an employer has carelessly neglected their legal responsibilities and your health and wellbeing have been compromised as a result, contact our personal injury team to establish whether you are entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim.\nThe type of injury suffered will depend on your working environment and the specific requirements of your job. Our personal injury solicitors have successfully represented employees who have suffered workplace injuries in the following circumstances:\nFactory, warehouse and shop floor accidents. Working in environments where there are workplace hazards, including equipment, vehicles, boxes and storage structures, can be challenging. For example, shop workers can be required to lift, carry, move, load and unload heavy items of stock or equipment making them more susceptible to back injuries, muscle damage, broken bones and other serious injuries. You may have suffered a slip, trip or fall, or experienced a repetitive strain injury if your employer has failed to comply with the Manual Handling Regulations or other health and safety requirements designed to ensure safe working environments for employees.\nConstruction site and trade-related accidents. Accidents and injuries in the construction and trade industries can occur as a result of a falling from a height, an unsupported ladder or scaffolding, vehicle accidents, defective equipment, tripping hazards, excessive noise, falling objects or through exposure to harmful chemicals or noxious substances. Although there are strict safety rules and good working practices that are required to be followed by employers, accidents on construction sites and in trade-related industries, such as painting and decorating, can still happen. If your employer has failed to put in place the appropriate risk assessments or has failed to provide the necessary Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), you should seek legal advice from our expert personal injury solicitors.\nOffice-based accidents. Although an office may seem inherently less hazardous when compared with a construction site or factory, office-based injuries are increasingly common. Office-based injuries can arise as a result of heavy lifting of office equipment, stress and overwork, poor workstation setup, or a slip, trip or fall on a wet floor, unsecured carpet or because of dangling wires and cables. Office workers can also suffer from repetitive strain injuries, causing migraines, eye problems, muscle soreness and persistent discomfort, fatigue and pain. Poor working environments, improper workspace organisation and setup, and failure to provide health and safety training often cause office-based injuries.\nAgricultural, fishing and forestry accidents. Working outdoors, exposed to the elements can be challenging, however working with complex equipment in environments that are inherently changeable and unpredictable means that accidents in agricultural, forestry and fishing environments are frequent and often severe in nature. Injuries can arise when employees are struck by farm vehicles, trapped by the collapse of a structure, struck by falling objects, attacked by an animal, exposed to chemicals or materials including asbestos, electrocuted or wounded by dangerous machinery. Your employer should be carrying out a risk assessment of the tasks you are undertaking and providing safety equipment and guidance on good working practices to mitigate the possibility of injury or accidents arising.\nContact our Accident at Work Claim Solicitors in Glasgow, Scotland\nAt Miller Samuel Hill Brown we have Scotland\u2019s top experts managing our personal injury claims. Our Quality Standard Regulated solicitors offer a personalised approach, we will meet with you to discuss your case and guide you through the process of making a claim. If you have suffered a workplace injury in the last three years as a result of negligence or through an accident that was not your fault, contact our expert personal injury solicitors today on 0141 221 1919 or complete our online enquiry form.",

        "raw_content": "I can\u2019t believe the Secret Solstice Festival is next weekend! My, how time has flown by, way too quickly.\nWe at Must See in Iceland got the great pleasure of partnering up with Secret Solstice Festival this year, which is a huge honor for our small family business. Our job is to find interesting tours for people visiting the festival, making sure that they thoroughly enjoy themselves in Iceland. And guess what? Everyone who uses the special Secret Solstice promotional code, TOPSECRET, get a 5% discount on our tours.\nLaugardalur is lovely.\nHeavy machinery needed!\nI love tent windows.\nThe Secret Solstice Crew are awesome!\nBut, on with the show. Those who don\u2019t know what the Secret Solstice Festival is, I can tell you that it\u2019s one of the biggest music festivals in Iceland. It\u2019s on for the fourth time this year, taking place between the 15th and the 18th of June in Laugardalur, close to down town Reykjav\u00edk. That\u2019s next weekend you guys!\nThe festival, as you can see, is relatively new in the festival scene but has garnered attention world wide and has secured its spot as one of the best summer music festivals in Europe. Quite an accomplishment!\nThere will be loads of food trucks at the festival area. These are just a few of those.\nWe were fortunate enough today, Tuesday the 13th of June, to explore the festival area and watch as everything was put into place with hundreds of hands working relentlessly to make the Secret Solstice Festival happen. It\u2019s amazing to think that this massive area will be crowded with people having a good time and listening to some quality beats next weekend.\nEven though there is so much left undone, it seemed like everyone was on top of their game today and everything ran pretty smoothly. The workers weren\u2019t even distracted when our little girl, Anna, who is only 2, pranced around the festival area, wearing an oversized security vest which she insisted on wearing. And I mean insisted. She wouldn\u2019t take no for an answer! And she won the hearts of the whole Secret Solstice crew. I mean, just look at her:\nNot going to Secret Solstice? Why not take a music and movie tour instead!\nWho\u2019s the top secret guest?\nSteady, steady!\nThe headlining acts at Secret Solstice this year are no newbies in the music scene. We\u2019re talking about Foo Fighters, The Prodigy, Rick Ross, Chaka Khan, Richard Ashcroft and many more. Then there\u2019s also a bucketful of Icelandic acts that you might want to keep an eye on. I, personally, recommend seeing rappers GKR, Emmsj\u00e9 Gauti and Aron Can. Agent Fresco are also a kick ass party group, as is Amabadama. And don\u2019t miss Eurovision star Da\u00f0i Freyr, legendary punk band Fr\u00e6bblarnir and post punk band Tappi T\u00edkarass, a band that Bj\u00f6rk used to sing with. Oh, and then I\u2019ve heard of a really special secret guest on Friday night. I\u2019m so excited to see who it is! Check out the complete line-up here, because I can\u2019t possibly introduce you to all the acts in one blog post.\nStay updated with the weather forecast in Iceland right here.\nRainy and cloudy, but who cares?\nAnd if you haven\u2019t already booked your ticket for Secret Solstice, I suggest you do it right now. I bet you\u2019ll have a great time, even though the weather is not on our side, with rain and clouds filling up the forecast. But it doesn\u2019t matter. The vibe at this Icelandic music festival is so lovely that you\u2019ll forget all about the weather, and just enjoy being one with thousands of other music lovers.\nEnough trash cans for everyone. So, keep it clean people!",

Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood. For Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.'\" NIV translation\nJames now gives the council his judgment which is a list of rules for the Gentiles to follow. The rules are all in line with scripture and it is good to stay away from the things on the list. But, the question that was brought before the council was what must the Gentiles do to be saved. Therefore, this list of rules does not fit in with the grace of God. Once you begin to add any conditions to grace (which is unmerited favor) then it stops being grace.\n\"Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, decided to choose some of their own men and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas (called Barsabbas) and Silas, two men who were leaders among the brothers.\" NIV translation\nThe \"church\" in Jerusalem now chose men to deliver this ruling to the believers in Antioch.\n\"With them they sent the following letter: The apostles and elders, your brothers, To the Gentile believers in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings. We have heard that some went out from us without our authorization and disturbed you, troubling your minds by what they said. So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul- men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to confirm by word of mouth what we are writing.\" NIV translation\nThe result of this council is a letter to the groups of believers in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia. The leaders in Jerusalem also sent Judas and Silas to confirm what the letter stated.\n\"It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things. Farewell.\" NIV translation\nNow, the letter gives the instructions to the believers. It is good to avoid all of the things listed but this letter can cause some confusion. You see, the controversy was over what one must do to be saved and the simple answer to that is to accept Jesus Christ as the Lord of your life. The ruling from this council can lead people to believe that other actions can have a bearing on your salvation. Once you accept Christ and have the Holy Spirit living in you, then you will not want to have a part in the things that are listed.",

        "raw_content": "Saved From Abortion, A Woman's Story Of Redemption...\nThis is the true story of how God redeemed a woman and rescued her from her shame and guilt. Although this Christian testimony is about a woman from Singapore, it can be inspiring for women everywhere. This story reminds us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ (see Romans 8:1).\nHow Jesus Has Changed My Life: I did not choose God, but God had chosen me for Him. I was brought up in a pagan surrounding, but God has destined my life to come to Him in a way that I did not even realize it.\nAfter the war, Singapore went back under British rule. The British brought with them Christianity. Following the wave of modernization, my mom became an active Christian.\nWhen we were small, my mom sent me and my sister to Sunday school in Guillemard Road in Geylang - Singapore. We lived in a rented room and my dad rode a motorcycle. The Sunday school was in Mandarin and at that age I could hardly read or write. My sister would turn the pages for me as we worshiped. I remembered Ye-He-Hwa (Jehova), and Ai (Love). These were the only words I could recognize because Yahwe appeared many times and Ai was part of my Chinese name. I may not have realized this, but the seeds that the Sunday school teacher, my mum and sister had planted in me, made me a child of God.\nMy father received a windfall from a lottery, and we moved to a house from our rented room. We finally had our own house and my father bought a car. Mom became really busy with more kids and with the change of residence and location wise, we stopped going to Sunday school. One tragic day, my mom, in a car accident, drove us into a lamp post. We were all hurt but mom and my sister were very badly injured. My sister later fell into a coma after an erroneous operation. Desperate for help, my mom searched all human doctors from Singapore to China. She also searched all deities from Christianity to Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam. Finally, she was accused and blamed for not praying to my father\u2019s ancestor. Desperate to make it right, she took off to China to bring back the ancestral information to be honored at our residence. Seven and a half years later, my sister died, despite all the deities and ancestors praying. This was how we left Christianity and fell into Buddhism.\nMy life was no bed of roses. I did not do well in school, flunked my classes, I did not finish my degree, I had many relationship problems, marital discords, and losing jobs and never had enough financially for my needs. I knew my life was never meant to be defeated, I believed in a greater force that can lift me out of these cycles of disappointments.\nI heard from a friend about the gods in Thailand. I thought \"what I could lose to try; it may be what I needed\" so I brought my husband with me to Bangkok. On our first night in the Bangkok hotel, my husband had a dream. He had a revelation and dreamt that God told me that I will have a daughter and she will save us, and my husband should listen to me. It was not accepted by me. By then, I already have 5 children and I did not intend to have anymore. I had managed to keep my figure at size 10 and I intended to keep it at size ten.\nAfter I came back to Singapore, I became pregnant. I aborted it. I dreamt that I met this little girl in a hot humid car park. She was sad, and shivering. I told her I could not have her then as I had a job and that I will come back for her when I was not tied down with a job anymore. I covered her with a pearl -blanket and I left. After that dream, I lost my job.\nI found another job, I even got promoted. Then I got pregnant again and I aborted it again, and I lost my job again.\nThis time, I became very disappointed and I blamed all that happened to me on my husband because we always fought. I gave up looking for another job and went hiding in Batam where my husband worked. To run away from reality, we took drugs and enjoyed our sinful lives. Then, I got pregnant again. I had a dream; I saw a beautiful scene of a me at a pool side reading and my husband sipping wine. I saw the little girl, her hair was curly and light brown and shimmers under the sun. Her face resembles my sister\u2019s. The rest of my children were playing around the pool. Still with a hardened heart, I decided to abort it. But, we did not have much money for expensive abortion so I got my husband to buy the abortion pill from a pharmacy. I took it and a few minutes later I bled. I bled so badly that I suffered from hemorrhage. I turned pale, became weak, and I knew I could die. Suddenly, something told me to put pressure on my womb which I did and the bleeding stopped.\nAfter this event, we moved back to Singapore. My life by now is in terrible shape, John, my husband, lost his job and our strife became worse day by day. We were not going anywhere with the way things were going, finally I decided that the only way was to have the baby God wants me to have. We went to a Catholic church and I threw the praying idols at home away because they did not do me any good.\nI got pregnant again. This time I wanted to keep the baby and I believed that my life would turn around with the birth of this child. I faced many objections from my children, my husband and even my maid because our lives were in desparate shape. Both of us were jobless and merely counting on the donations and compassionate food supply from various charity organizations. But, still I was determined to go through no matter what, believing that God wanted me to carry this baby.\nHowever, during the pregnancy terms, things did not turn out well, in fact things even got worse. My husband was very much disturbed mentally and spiritually and later he was caught by Singapore customs for drug consumption & trafficking from Batam to Singapore. One of his drug friends tipped the Singapore customs. Drugs will turn people against each other. He was jailed with an impending sentence of a minimum 7 years and awaiting the court trial.\nLife was tough during my pregnancy. We became bankrupt and had to rely on hand outs and social support. My children went to school with the help of Straits Times Pocket Money Fund; St. Vincent De Paul gave us some money that is enough to pay for electricity and water bills. Fei Ye Counseling Centre had counselors to help us with our marriage and gave us food like oil, rice, and biscuits and canned food. When I was finally ready to give birth, I could not afford to pay the medical fee and had to deliver the baby from a 3rd class facility for free.\nI had a dream and, in the dream, I saw the Heavenliness and I saw Archangel Michael and his angelic hosts discussing a battle plan. They were dressed in long robes with swords tied to their waists and draped with red capes. We were in a castle like structure but it looked like the outer area of the heavenliness. I could see clouds and blue skies just beyond the large windows. There was some sort of screen on the wall behind me with changing screen. The angels knew I could see them but they did not talk to me. But, somehow I knew that \u201cthis battle is won!\u201d The hindrance to have this baby was removed. Then, the scene in the dream changed. A pitch black background and I saw a sword. The handle of the sword was crusted with multicolored jewels and in the middle of the handle was a large pearl. The scene changed again. Still a pitch dark background but I saw a little girl in white. She looks a bit bigger than the last time I saw her. I stood alone in the dark, dressed in white with both her hands placed in front of her, one over the other, in a relaxed position. I moved near to her because I wanted to see her face. I thought she might be scared or shivering but no, I saw a confident face smiling in victory.\nBarely 2 months after I gave birth, I found a job. One of my friends brought my husband and I to a Christian church where we received Jesus into our lives. From then on, my life began to be transformed and restored. Today, 4 years after receiving Jesus, I am fully restored. Although a size 14 now, I am ever so happy. God has blessed me abundantly not only financially but with a total shalom (peace). 40 years in the wilderness and God filled my life and lifted me up in just 4 years time.\nLooking back, I am starting to understand my Father\u2019s love for me. I met my Father even before I could read, even though I forgot about Him, He never forgot me. He has been with me throughout the journey of my life. Even though I ignored Him, He saw me through the mistakes I made in my life. He prevented me from death and He even proposed a life line for me which I ignored. You see, when Father wanted me to have a daughter so she could save me, He meant that by my obedience & faith, He shall have the reason to save and restore me. It\u2019s about spiritual warfare. What we do on earth have impact on the spiritual world, what we bind on earth will be bound in heaven. The scene of the angelic hosts fighting our battles for us tells me that our Father is always ordering His angels to fight our battles for us - although most of us do not know that. Whenever we turn away from God, this sin will raise another battle for the angels to fight, whenever we turn towards God it is another\nbattle won. It\u2019s always about us; Jesus was about us, this is how much our Father loves us.\nI want to thank my mom for bringing me to Sunday School, my pastor in that Sunday school who led me to know my Father Yahwe, my sister who turned the pages of the Bible for me because I was always lost. I am saved today because of the seed of relationship with God that was planted in me when I was small in that Sunday school. I want to thank God, my Father, for His love and for being so very faithful and merciful.\n\u201cI am sorry Father that I left you; I missed You and thank You for not giving up on me, remembering me; I thank you for saving me and pouring me with your blessings and love. I love you Father because You love me first\u201d.\nLast but not least , my advice to all readers here, that from my life experience I do realize the wisdom of God, that:\nDo not cheat, for you are going to cheat yourself. Do not lie as you are lying to yourself. Do not steal for somehow and somewhat your are going to pay for what you steal. Do not murder as you are murdering yourself. All the do & do-not laws that God had given us in the Bible, turned out to be for our own good and not for His good (as God is already super good). He wants us not to sin, for sins will ultimately crouch on your own door. The Father God wants you to experience the fullness of life on earth before you join Him in eternity after life, the freedom to live a life on earth can only be achieved when you obey Him and His commandments.\nAileena, in Singapore\nIf you have a similar story of how you have been saved from abortion, you can share it with us and the world. Your story could help another woman to see that she is not condemned if she is in Christ.\n\ufeffHOME MORE STORIES",

        "raw_content": "The bed is the centrepiece of every bedroom, but what is a bed without a mattress? The answer is: nothing. In fact, it is the mattress which plays an essential role in providing the comfort. Choosing a high-quality mattress is amazingly important because the posture and the position of your spine during the sleep is essential to your health. The word mattress comes from Arabic and means \"rest upon\". During the crusades, the Europeans took Arabs' habit to sleep on big pillows placed directly on the ground. The mattress has, of course, a very ancient history. This is very important, because it could make you realise how high-quality rest and sleep have always considered as a priority to all the societies. Nowadays, we live a buzzy life, always running to work, school and so on, and we should make the best effort to guarantee ourselves a sound and healthy sleep.\nIn the past, mattresses were stuffed with straw, horsehair, wool and so on. Today, there are a lot of kinds of mattresses. You can have the water ones, the rubber ones and many others. We do sell mattresses, but only high-quality and luxury ones, where you can rest and your spine will always be comfortable. There are many priorities to take into consideration when buying a mattress - durability, reliability and, of course, a good support. These features are essential because our back is one of the most delicate parts of our bodies. It doesn't matter if you have a hard, physical job, or if you spend most of your time sitting on a chair in front of the screen of a computer. What you really need to know is that you could keep a wrong posture and your back could need exercises or therapy. One of the best therapies is having a great mattress where your back can relax during the sleep.\nWe have a good selection of standard mattresses of any kind, memory foam, pocket springs and more. What you need to know is of course the size you want - we covered it up for you: we have single, double, king, super king and continental sizes.

        "raw_content": "Home > Special Articles > Housing for All by 2022 - The Clock is Ticking...\nJune 05, 2017 Realty - Smart Cities, Special Articles\nHousing for All by 2022 - The Clock is Ticking\nby Mr. Anuj Puri, Chairman - JLLR (JLL Residential)\nAffordable housing is not just about providing homes to the lower-income strata of society, though that is what the Modi government's avowed intention behind the 'Housing for All by 2022' doubtlessly is. Affordable housing creation also has a direct and favourable correlation with the nation's economy, as well as most other real estate segments.\nHousing for lower-income wage earners increases the economic strength of any city or region, as it attracts inward migration which creates a bigger manpower pool.\nThis, in turn, boosts the viability of opening up industries and businesses in the region, translating into more demand for commercial real estate spaces. Formal and informal retail is also attracted to residential catchments, translating into consummate demand for retail spaces in and around such catchments.\nFinally, affordable housing in India coexists quite benevolently and beneficially with mid-income housing, as the middle class invariably depends on the services of lower-income earners to keep its show going, so to speak.\nIn cities like Mumbai, lower-income housing existing alongside the super-expensive abodes of ultra-HNIs is also not considered an anomaly.\nThe fairly recent trend of 'gated communities' perhaps seeks, to some extent, to reserve the properties within its perimeters to a certain level of networth families - but even in such projects, we see low-cost housing sprouting up almost as a logical consequence all around them.\nThe critical importance of affordable homes is doubtlessly an immutable truth in any country and its economy. In India, affordable housing has definitely played this role and will continue to do so.\nHowever, there has in the past also been a more sordid side to the story. While there were also reputed national players active in this segment, affordable housing in India has historically been the playing ground of smaller, non-established developers who did not follow any particular rule book.\nTheir modus operandi was to buy small land parcels on the outskirts of cities and in gram panchayat areas, and build very basic housing projects bereft of any but the most rudimentary facilities and amenities. The plots they favoured were invariably in areas which, because they fell outside municipal limits, did not have proper water and electricity or even road connectivity.\nWorse, such builders often did not have all regulatory clearances and permissions for their plots and projects.\nPeople bought homes in such projects because the quoted ticket sizes were attractively low - often so low that they would have aroused suspicion with more informed buyers. Such developers banked on the fact that their target clientele was extremely cost-sensitive and usually not up to speed on regulatory matters.\nThe 'amnesty schemes' that the Government rolled out to 'regularize' such housing projects for a certain fee justifiably drew ire, as such schemes seemed to encourage the development of illegal housing projects.\nWithout a doubt, many fly-by-night developers benefited from these schemes in the past and even banked on the possible option of resorting to them when the demolition hammer finally loomed over their projects.\nThe arrival of RERA has put paid to such underhanded activity, and only strong developers in the formal housing sector will prevail even in the affordable segment. This includes well-established local players with good track records for timely completion and quality standards.\nThe breed of fly-by-night operators who looked at affordable housing as a means to make a quick buck will now be driven off the market.\nThe Government has also rolled out various incentives to boost affordable housing. To begin with, the GOI designated this vital sector as a favoured segment under its Housing for All by 2022 initiative.\nThis led to affordable housing graduating from being the poor second cousin of Indian real estate to a highly influential sector. The most recent Union Budget provided direct tax relaxation to the lowest income earners, along with much-needed clarity on the designated beneficiaries under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY).\nThe Government also brought in a new Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS) for the middle-income group, with a provision of INR 1,000 crore. Additionally, the extension of tenure for loans under the CLSS of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) was increased from 15 to 20 years.\nFinally, affordable housing has also been accorded the very important infrastructure status, ensuring that developers in this segment have access to cheaper loans and various other incentives to encourage them to pitch in and drive supply.\nHaving emerged as a preferred segment for housing finance institutes, affordable housing is now also attracting the interest of more developers who had previously shunned it because of its 'down-market' image. Today, affordable housing has become a respectable segment and the Government's determined push towards creating it across the country in sufficient numbers, it now plays a very important role in the housing finance sector.\nThat said, whether the Government's vision for Housing for All by 2022 is realistic and implementable to its intended extent is still a big question mark. Definitely, it seems impossible if enough land is not released for the creation of affordable housing. Various Government agencies such as the Indian Railways do, in fact, hold sizeable land parcels which could logically be deployed for this purpose.\nLand is a very price-sensitive commodity, and its current shortage in major city-centric areas prevents the development of affordable housing in areas where it is most direly needed. The cost of land currently accounts for as much as 30-50% of the cost of a project within city limits. However, RBI regulations do not allow banks to fund land purchase.\nDevelopers, therefore, are left with only a few options. They can either form a joint venture (JV) with the land owner, or get funded through NBFCs - usually a very expensive route, which again precludes the prospect of developing affordable housing on the acquired land.\nThis is not the only area that needs to be looked at seriously. The lower-income groups also need access to housing loans to a much greater extent that the PMAY scheme offers. In the first place, awareness about this scheme among those whom it intends to benefit is seriously lacking. Also, the tedious KYC norms need to be relaxed for low-income, informal sector buyer who has the most pressing need for housing.\nAbove everything else, the obvious need of the hour to unravel the Gordian knot of complexity surrounding affordable housing in India is concentrated political will.\nGoing by its existing track record, the current Government is definitely capable of making the required push - and with Government-held land being matter of public record, of deploying the necessary land resources.\nThe demonetization move and rolling out of RERA and GST are ready examples of a degree of political will which has, in many respects, not been evidenced in India before.\nWill we see the Government make yet another series of determined moves to fulfil its vision to put a roof over the head of every Indian citizen? Only time will tell - but if we take the '2022' in its Housing for All vision as any kind of deadline, the clock is definitely ticking...\nMedia Relations \u2013 JLLR (JLL Residential)\nHousing for All by 2022 - The Clock is Ticking...

        "raw_content": "For a decade before he was swept into the White House in 1928, he was one of America \u2019s most respected men. The \u201cpersonal tenderness\u201d he exhibited and his \u201cability to deal with calamities,\u201d however, weren\u2019t quite as apparent when the stock market plunged, unemployment rose and the country began its slide into the Great Depression.\nBut Hoover knew what to do. He told a reporter in 1931 that the country needed \u201c\u2019a good, big laugh\u2019\u201d to make things right.\nGertrude Temple already had two sons when she \u201cmade a fateful resolution.\u201d She decided that her third child would be a curly-haired blonde girl named Shirley, who would pull the family out of financial difficulties. When that child was born in 1928, it was as if Gertrude\u2019s dream had \u201cwilled [Shirley Temple] into existence.\u201d\nBy the time Franklin Roosevelt ousted Hoover in the 1932 election, most of the world\u2019s citizens were truly suffering. Average American paychecks had fallen to nearly half of what they were in 1929 \u2013 that is, if the wage-earner even had a job. Unemployment was well into double-digits; worse for southern blacks. Food was scarce, housing was iffy and resources were dear.\nEnrolled in a dance class, 3-year-old Shirley Temple caught the eye of two one-reel moviemakers and was offered a contract for $10 per day of filming. It was formulaic work, but it gave her mother hope and in the fall of 1933, Gertrude made certain that Shirley was seen by the songwriter for a new Fox Film. He promptly replaced a \u201cless winning little girl\u201d with Shirley.\nWithin a year, the world was smitten\nHeavy things to put on the shoulders of a child, no? Yes, and author John F. Kasson explains why the time was ripe for a kid to become one of the world\u2019s best-known, then-best-loved people.\nBut that\u2019s not all: in \u201cThe Little Girl Who Fought the Great Depression,\u201d we\u2019re treated to a lively, yet focused, history filled with surprises and unique perspectives. Kasson shows us how African-Americans fared, both on-screen and off. We\u2019re told of Shirley Temple\u2019s unusual friendships, and how she misbehaved sometimes. And Kasson offers statistics and excerpts from letters that keenly show how the Depression affected everyday people, and how Shirley Temple offered them comfort.\nI came for the history that\u2019s here, I stayed for the biography, I loved every minute of both and so will movie fans and history buffs. For them, \u201cThe Little Girl Who Fought the Great Depression\u201d is an upstanding book.",

        "raw_content": "Ukulele/vocals\nBrit Rodriguez\nWhat Gods Prevent\nChapel Insomnia\nBrit Rodriguez is known for her soulful, smoky voice that beautifully contrasts with the bright, colorful sound of her ukulele. As a musician, she is renowned for her lyrical content and melodic prowess. As a performer, audiences are captivated by her unique sense of humor and down to Earth personality. Influenced by late fifties R&B and nineties dance music, Brit is a hybrid of the raw, youthful energy of today and the great soul and folk divas of the past.\nBrit began performing with her ukulele seven years ago, opening for punk bands and hip hop groups. After some time touring Southern and Northern California, she settled in Los Angeles to pursue a music career. It was in this time that she had the opportunity to play the Konsept Art + Music Festival, the Eclectic Music Festival, OC Weekly\u2019s Artopia, and Make Music LA. Brit was also the musician in residence, chosen by world renowned luthier Monica Esparza, for the OC Fair.\nIn 2014 she debuted her first demo, My Name Is Brit Rodriguez Please Listen To Me, showcasing only vocals and ukulele. It was with this demo that Brit was invited to New Zealand for a month long tour. She headlined the Geraldine Uke Fest, named one of the world\u2019s top six ukulele festivals by Ukulele Magazine, and graced the stages of the Oamaru Opera House, the Hotel St. Moritz, and Kinloch Lodge, to name a few.\nBack in Los Angeles, Brit developed a music program for the Ronald McDonald House with Team Ukulele, a charity she founded that supplies instruments and workshops to facilities in need. She is also the founder of Uke Jam L.A., a pop up strum along in the city, that started in the Acoustic room of the iconic Guitar Center Hollywood.\nWith the release of her first fully produced EP, How to Burn, and performances at numerous high profile venues like The Dresden, Vitellos, Belmond El Encanto, State Social House, and Disney\u2019s California Adventure, Brit began work on a new, more intimate musical project. Under the support of her Patreon patrons and fans on social media, she released songs and videos independently on her blog.\nOn January 1, at midnight, Brit released her latest album, \"The Little Song.\" Featuring ten tracks she recorded in her home studio, \"The Little Song,\" mixes the sound of the ukulele, timpani, cello, and smooth harmonies. It is considered her best work as a folk-pop artist to date.\nCurrently Brit resides in Los Angeles and is working on a new album.\nBrit is sponsored by Godin Guitars, Guitarras Manuel Rodriguez & Sons, Boulder Creek Guitars, and Aquila Strings.",

WORMELI, Integrated Justice Information Systems, Ashburn, VA\nJANE L. ROSS, Director\nRecent findings from research on adolescent development, and particularly increasing knowledge about the adolescent brain, have led to deep and growing concerns about the treatment of juveniles in the nation\u2019s justice system. There is a fundamental disconnect between what is now known about the characteristic features of adolescents and the apparent assumptions of that system. One reflection of that disconnect is a recent series of decisions from the U.S. Supreme Court forbidding the most severe penalties for adolescent offenders, especially the death penalty. There has also been a wide range of reforms in the administration of juvenile justice over the past 15 years, some of which reflect the emerging knowledge about adolescents and some of which do not.\nThe committee\u2019s charge was to take stock of the juvenile justice reforms undertaken over the past 15 years in light of current knowledge about adolescent development. The study was requested by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), an agency of the U.S. Department of Justice. In an austere fiscal environment with so many pressing priorities, OJJDP naturally wants to ensure that it supports the research and programs that best harness the available scientific evidence.\nDuring the two years of our study, we have been struck by the energy and dedication of all the stakeholders and participants in the juvenile justice system who took the time to appear before the committee and to help us to carry out our charge. A diverse array of the nation\u2019s institutions and leaders, both private and public, are playing key roles in the movement for\njuvenile justice reform, including elected officials in the states and localities, judges, foundations, advocacy organizations, and research organizations.\nThe central premise of this report is that the goals, design, and operation of the juvenile justice system should be informed by the growing body of knowledge about adolescent development. If designed and implemented in a developmentally informed way, procedures for holding adolescents accountable for their offending, and the services provided to them, can promote positive legal socialization, reinforce a prosocial identity, and reduce reoffending. However, if the goals, design, and operation of the juvenile justice system are not informed by this growing body of knowledge, the outcome is likely to be negative interactions between youth and justice system officials, increased disrespect for the law and legal authority, and the reinforcement of a deviant identity and social disaffection.\nScientists commonly complain that policy makers are not paying attention to the scientific evidence. Our experience in studying juvenile justice has been quite the reverse. We have detected an impressive consensus among stakeholder groups and public officials regarding the goals of the juvenile justice system, a genuine hunger for evidence about what works, and a willingness to embrace evidence-based policies and programs. This report aims to consolidate the progress that has been made in both science and policy making and to establish a strong platform for a 21st century juvenile justice system.\nAdvancing knowledge has helped to foster a climate of optimism. However, this energizing spirit of change has not taken root in all parts of the country, and it could dissipate if institutional structures are not put in place to sustain it and to assure a continuing partnership among practitioners, researchers, and policy makers. The locus of reform lies at the state, local, and tribal levels, and most of this report focuses on the opportunities and challenges facing the courts, law enforcement agencies, schools, social service agencies, and mental health agencies in communities throughout the nation. However, OJJDP support and leadership are critically important if the reform process is to succeed, and the report urges Congress to embrace the cause of juvenile justice reform by clarifying and reaffirming the mission of OJJDP.\nMany people may argue that the lives of nation\u2019s youth most deeply ensnared by the juvenile justice system will not be substantially improved simply by reforming the juvenile justice system. We do not claim that juvenile justice reform can carry the burden of overcoming the many causes of juvenile crime. Also needed are stronger families, better schools, truly equal opportunity, and safe and healthy communities for the nation\u2019s youth. However, this report shows that a harsh system of punishing troubled\nyouth can make things worse, while a scientifically based juvenile justice system can make an enduring difference in the lives of many youth who most need the structure and services it can provide.\nRobert L. Johnson, Chair\nRichard J. Bonnie, Vice Chair\nThis report would not have been possible without the efforts of many people, each of whom has contributed time and expertise. The committee had the assistance and close cooperation of the staff of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), the report\u2019s sponsor. The committee benefited greatly from briefings received from senior staff such as Andrea Coleman, disproportionate minority coordinator; Melodee Hanes, deputy administrator for policy; Elissa Rumsey, compliance monitor coordinator; Jeff Slowikowski, acting deputy administrator; and Greg Thompson, associate administrator, State Relations and Assistance Division. The committee also appreciates the assistance and insight of other OJJDP staff that briefed National Research Council (NRC) staff, including Janet Chiancone, associate administrator, Budget and Planning Division; Brecht Donahue, research coordinator; and Kathi Grasso, senior juvenile justice policy and legal advisor. Robin Delany-Shabazz, director, Concentration of Federal Efforts Program, and Anita Butler, program analyst, also provided information. Kellie Dressler-Tetrick, acting associate administrator, Demonstration Programs, and Marilyn Roberts, deputy administrator for programs, helped coordinate the committee\u2019s activities and assure that all funding requirements were met.\nThe committee drew on the expertise of many people during the course of its information gathering. The committee extends its thanks to Kristin N. Henning, J.D., LL.M., of Georgetown University Law School for her thoughtful analysis of procedural justice and adolescent\u2019s perceptions of law and legal authority that has been incorporated into Chapter 7; Alex R. Piquero, Ph.D., of the University of Texas at Dallas, for a review\nof research on racial disparities for Chapter 8; Simon Singer, Ph.D., of Northeastern University, for assisting committee member Jeff Butts with a paper on current juvenile justice practices; Beth Huebner, Ph.D., of the University of Missouri at St. Louis, for her paper on the Missouri Model that appears in Appendix B of this report; Jessica Kostelnik, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Law, Psychiatry and Public Policy at the University of Virginia, for a background paper on socializing agents and unique characteristics of adolescents relevant to their sense of accountability; Kyle Frankiewich, M.P.A., and Daniel J. Evans, School of Public Affairs, University of Washington, for developing material used in Appendix A on costs and benefits of juvenile justice interventions. The committee also relied on a paper prepared for the NRC/Institute of Medicine Board on Children, Youth, and Families by a member of the committee, Kenneth A. Dodge, Ph.D., of Duke University, and Nancy Gonzales, Ph.D., of the University of Arizona, for a portion of the material on parental and peer influences on adolescent behavior in Chapter 4.\nThe committee would also like to acknowledge the following people for giving presentations at committee meetings: Neelum Arya, Campaign for Youth Justice; James Bell, W.

A key function of adolescence is developing an integrated sense of self, including individualization, separation from parents, and personal identity. Experimentation and novelty-seeking behavior, such as alcohol and drug use, unsafe sex, and reckless driving, are thought to serve a number of adaptive functions despite their risks.\nResearch indicates that for most youth, the period of risky experimentation does not extend beyond adolescence, ceasing as identity becomes settled with maturity. Much adolescent involvement in criminal activity is part of the normal developmental process of identity formation and most adolescents will mature out of these tendencies. Evidence of significant changes in brain structure and function during adolescence strongly suggests that these cognitive tendencies characteristic of adolescents are associated with biological immaturity of the brain and with an imbalance among developing brain systems. This imbalance model implies dual systems: one involved in cognitive and behavioral control and one involved in socio-emotional processes. Accordingly adolescents lack mature capacity for self-regulations because the brain system that influences pleasure-seeking and emotional reactivity develops more rapidly than the brain system that supports self-control. This knowledge of adolescent development has underscored important differences between adults and adolescents with direct bearing on the design and operation of the justice system, raising doubts about the core assumptions driving the criminalization of juvenile justice policy in the late decades of the 20th century.\nIt was in this context that the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) asked the National Research Council to convene a committee to conduct a study of juvenile justice reform. The goal of Reforming Juvenile Justice: A Developmental Approach was to review recent advances in behavioral and neuroscience research and draw out the implications of this knowledge for juvenile justice reform, to assess the new generation of reform activities occurring in the United States, and to assess the performance of OJJDP in carrying out its statutory mission as well as its potential role in supporting scientifically based reform efforts.\n2 Historical Context 31\u201348\n3 Current Practice in the Juvenile Justice System 49\u201388\n4 Adolescent Development 89\u2013118\n5 A Framework for Reform 119\u2013138\n6 Preventing Reoffending 139\u2013182\n7 Accountability and Fairness 183\u2013210\n8 Reducing Racial/Ethnic Disparities 211\u2013240\n9 Achieving Reform 241\u2013280\n10 The Federal Role 281\u2013320\n11 Moving Forward 321\u2013332\nAppendix A: Costs and Benefits of Juvenile Justice Interventions 393\u2013410\nAppendix B: The Missouri Model: A Critical State of Knowledge 411\u2013430\nAppendix C: Mentoring 431\u2013434\nAppendix D: Biographical Sketches of Committee Members and Staff 435\u2013442",

        "raw_content": "The Bridgewater Collection: Its Impact on Collecting and Display in Britain\nTitian\u2019s 'Diana and Actaeon'\nEnglish royalty and aristocracy\nBridgewater and his relatives\nPermanent art galleries\nDetail from Titian, 'Diana and Actaeon', 1556-59 \u00a9 The National Gallery London / The National Galleries of Scotland\nLecture by Susanna Avery-Quash, Research Curator in the History of Collecting: delivered at the National Gallery 7 December 2009\n\u2018Art is one of the best and safest, and most lasting pleasures which in this weary changeable world we are glad to make the substitutes for happiness. I remember that on entering the Bridgewater Gallery after a long absence, all things so changed within and without, I could almost have burst forth in the eloquent apostrophe of a fellow enthusiast \u2013 \u201cThou, O divine Bath of Diana, with deep azure dyes, with roseate hues spread by the hand of Titian \u2013 art still there, another, yet the same, that thou wert five and twenty years ago!'\u201d.'1\nThus Mrs. Jameson, the prolific Victorian author of popular guides to Old Master painting, describes her joyful reunion with Titian\u2019s Diana and Actaeon. The picture has excited high praise down the ages, from Giorgio Vasari in 16th-century Italy (who stated that Titian used \u2018colours in a way that made [the figures] appear alive and natural\u2019), to the great 19th-century art-critic William Hazlitt who called the work and its companion \u2018perfect studies in the Venetian art of colouring\u2019 and Ellis Waterhouse in the 20th century, who pronounced the painting \u2018a miracle\u2019 being \u2018an incredible design in every dimension\u2019.2\nWhen viewed alone the 'Diana and Actaeon' is a remarkable work but arguably it has greater impact when seen with the other works with which it was intended to hang. Furthermore, one only has to scan mentally the various collections to which it has belonged during its 450 year history and recall where it was displayed to realise that this work has played a significant role in confirming and expanding the established taste for Italian Renaissance art in Britain.\n'Diana and Actaeon' was painted as a pendant to another episode from the goddess Diana\u2019s life: 'Diana and Callisto', which shows the hapless nymph Callisto, who had been seduced by Jupiter and discovered to be pregnant, being denounced to the chaste moon-goddess Diana. Closely related both visually and thematically, the National Gallery\u2019s 'Diana and Actaeon' and the 'Diana and Callisto' were painted for no less a patron than the powerful, ambitious and art-loving King Philip II of Spain. In a letter to his royal patron, Titian noted that he had started the 'Diana and Acteon' scene in 1556, while in another missive, of 19 June 1559, he reported that the companion pictures were finished (although he went on working on them for another three months). They were dispatched from Venice in October 1559, but their arrival in Spain was not acknowledged until 2 April 1561.3\nTitian\u2019s paintings of Diana were not a \u2018stand alone\u2019 pair but rather were conceived within a larger series of mythological paintings (or \u2018poesie\u2019) drawn mainly from Ovid\u2019s 'Metamorphoses'. It is not clear that it was a closed series; in other words Titian could have added other subjects to the seven mythologies which he did produce - piecemeal fashion. Among their number is The Death of Actaeon (now also in the National Gallery) which depicts the final act of the tragedy whose first act is played out in the 'Diana and Acteon'. This particular painting, begun in 1556 and worked on intermittently, was never completed which may explain why it did not find its way to Spain.4 By contrast, the other paintings were finished and Philip II ended up with a sumptuous grouping which included images of 'Dan\u00e4e', 'Venus and Adonis', 'Perseus and Andromeda' and the 'Rape of Europa'.\nHaving started off life in a royal palace, a noble course seems to have been set for the pair of Diana pictures. They, together with others of Titian\u2019s mythologies and other paintings by the artist, ended up in France where they joined what was in effect the collection of the royal house. This occurred because Philip V, unlike his earlier namesakes Philip II and IV, was not a great art lover and he gave the two 'Dianas' and the 'Europa' to the duc de Gramont in 1704, during Gramont\u2019s time as French Ambassador at the Spanish Court. Gramont, in turn, ceded them to the notorious Philippe, duc d\u2019Orl\u00e9ans.\nWithin the short time-span of his becoming virtual ruler of France in 1715 and his death eight years later, the duc d\u2019Orl\u00e9ans built up a virtually unrivalled art-collection containing paintings, sculptures, engravings, and miniatures. His paintings included masterpieces from the Italian, French, Dutch and Flemish schools brought together from such distinguished collections as those of King Charles I of England and Cardinals Richelieu and Mazarin in France. By far the most important source was the collection of Queen Christina of Sweden, which the duc d\u2019Orl\u00e9ans had purchased 'en bloc'. Among the Orl\u00e9ans Italian paintings, which boasted six Raphaels and six Correggios, highlights were the Titians of which there were over 20 examples,6 some exemplifying the artist\u2019s earliest manner including the Noli me Tangere (now in the National Gallery), the 'Four Ages of Man' and 'Venus Rising from the Sea' and others, like 'Diana and Actaeon', representative of Titian\u2019s mature or late work.\nNext: English royalty and aristocracy\nExplore this research theme\nViewing page 1 (6)\n1.

N.B. They appear among the pictures about which Titian complained in 1574 that he had not received compensation; see F. Pedrocco, Titian: The Complete Paintings (London, 2001), p. 248.\n4. The picture ended up on a list of pictures for sale in Venice in the 1630s, described as: \u20189. A Diana shooting Adonis in forme of a Hart. Not quite finished. Pal 12 & 10 Titian,\u2019 in a MS. inventory among the Duke of Hamilton\u2019s papers; see C. Gould, National Gallery Catalogues: The Sixteenth-Century Italian Schools (London, 1987), p. 294. The picture passed into various aristocratic collections, including the Orl\u00e9ans Collection in France; on being sold in England it passed into the collection of Sir Abraham Hume and then, by descent, into the family of the Earl Brownlow. Later on, it was purchased by the Earl of Harewood. After the sale of the 7th Earl of Harewood (Christie\u2019s, 25 June 1971, lot 27), it was bought by the J. Paul Getty Museum, Malibu, California. The export license applied for by the latter was delayed by the Reviewing Committee for a year, during which time the purchase price paid by the Getty Museum was raised by public appeal, so that the work was purchased by the National Gallery, London, in 1972.\n5. N.B. Versions of both the Venus and Adonis and Dan\u00e4e were first produced for the Italian noble family, the Farnese.\n6. For a list of twenty-one paintings by Titians in the Orl\u00e9ans Collection, see William Buchanan, Memoirs of Painting with a Chronological History of the Importation of Pictures by the Great Masters into England since the French Revolution (London, 1824), pp. 111-123.\n7. Despite being manifestly absurd, a popular 19th-century journal, the Art Union, raised the point that in a catalogue by William Young Ottley the author had recorded that Titian\u2019s mythologies \u2018were painted for our King Henry VIII., and belonged afterwards to King Charles I.\u2019; but the paper dismissed the statement on the grounds that the entry did \u2018not name any authority for the assertion, nor are they mentioned in the catalogue of the latter Sovereign\u2019s pictures, when they were sold by the Parliament\u2019; quoted in E.K.

Slade offered them for sale in Pall Mall in 1793, and among the buyers were his three co-speculators (also partners in the same Bank as Slade): Lord Kinnaird, Mr. Moreland and Mr. Hammersley; see Penny 2008, p. 466.\n12. N.B. He even visiting Paris in September 1797 to make plans to this end, but a military coup forced him to flee back immediately to England.\n13. Michael Bryan was also a collector and the author of a well-known Biographical and Critical Dictionary of Painters and Engravers, first published in 1816; he married the daughter of a nobleman.\n14. N.B. The 5th Earl of Carlisle was the brother-in-law of the 1st Duke of Sutherland. A fop and a gambler in his youth, he later became a highly successful politician, public servant, guardian to his cousin Lord Byron, and a friend of the politician and wit George Selwyn. He was a writer himself and his work was praised by both Samuel Johnson and Horace Walpole.\n15. N.B. Carlisle was married to Lady Margaret Leveson-Gower, daughter of the first Marquis of Stafford.\n16. N.B. The premises consisted of one large and one small show-room in Schomberg House, 88 Pall Mall.\n17. Farington\u2019s annotated catalogue is preserved at the Getty Research Institute, Malibu, CA (ref: Special Collections, inv. 880391); for reproductions, see Haskell 2000, figs. 5 and 6.\n18. N. Penny (Penny 2008, p. 469, note 75) suggests that this was a sketch for Tintoretto\u2019s Paradise (perhaps the painting now in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Madrid).\n19. N.B. Penny 2008, p. 467, has pointed out that both this double-exhibition and the subsequent sale by Coxe, Burrel and Foster on 13 May 1802 \u2018at which all members of the syndicate consigned some pictures they had reserved\u2019 were, from a financial point of view, disappointing.\n20. N.B. On his death, in 1833, the Stafford Gallery was divided: that part of the collection which had been acquired by the Marquis of Stafford was inherited by his eldest son, who became the Duke of Sutherland, after which point it became known as the Sutherland Gallery; the Bridgewater portion was directed by the Duke of Bridgewater\u2019s will to descend to the Marquis of Stafford\u2019s second son, Lord Francis Egerton, and resumed its original name of the Bridgewater Gallery; see \u2018Visits to Private Galleries: The Collection of the Right Hon. The Earl of Ellesmere, Belgrave-Square\u2019, Art-Union, vol. ix (1847), pp.8-12, 49-52.\n21. N.B. In 1963 Ellesmere\u2019s great-great-grandson, the fifth Earl, succeeded his kinsman as 6th Duke of Sutherland. The earldom of Ellesmere and viscountcy of Brackley are now subsidiary titles of the dukedom.\n22. N.B. Doubtless Francis Egerton\u2019s portrait by Pompeo Batoni was done under duress; perhaps the one of Wood was done as some kind of recompense for this long-suffering \u2018bear-keeper\u2019!\n23. N.B. Their engagement was broken off because of the Duchess of Hamilton\u2019s refusal to give up the acquaintance of her sister, Lady Coventry.\n24. Quoted in Francis Haskell, Rediscoveries in Art: some aspects of taste, fashion and collecting in England and France (London, 1976), p. 27.\n25. The 1st Duke of Sutherland acquired the greater part of Sutherlandshire (now Highland) through his marriage to Elizabeth (1765-1839), Countess of Sutherland, while the Earl of Ellesmere, in 1822, married Harriet Catherine, daughter of Charles Greville. Lord Beaconsfield dubbed the family custom of marriage with wealthy woman, \u2018absorbing heiresses\u2019.\n26. See the review of Ronald Gower, The Lenoir Collection of original French portraits at Stafford house, in Athenaeum, 28 Nov. 1874, pp. 719-20. His collection was so rich that it was considered \u2018more complete than \u2026 any private gallery\u2019; see Jameson, op. cit., p. 83.\n27. See P.A. Tomory, The Ellesmere Collection of Old Master Drawings (Leicester, 1954), pp. 5-6. N.B. Francis Egerton gave the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, two volumes of drawings by the Carracci in 1853.\n28. On this work, see Chris Riopelle\u2019s essay in: ***. N.B. The future Earl of Ellesmere\u2019s brother, the Duke of Sutherland, also secured a painting on an English historical theme by Delaroche in the 1830s: Strafford on his Way to Execution. These paintings were not conceived as pendants, although they tend to be described as such.\n29. Jameson, op. cit., p. 81.\n30. Quoted in Penny 2008, p. 467.\n31. W. Hazlitt, \u2018On the Pleasures of Painting\u2019, Criticisms on Art, vol. 2 (London, 1844), pp. 19-20.\n32. D. Bindman, \u2018The Orl\u00e9ans Collection and its Impact on British Art\u2019, in R. Panzanelli and M. Preti-Hamard (eds.), The Circulation of Works of Art in the Revolutionary Era, 1789-1848 (Rennes, 2004), p. 61\n33. N.B. According to Passavant, this came about as the result of a clause in the Duke of Bridgewater\u2019s will whereby he bequeathed his collection together \u2018with the mansion called Cleveland House, to the Duke of Sutherland, upon condition of its being thrown open to the public during the months of May and June\u2019 (see J.D. Passavant, Tour of a German Artist in England (London, 1836), pp. 121-22), which is all rather strange given that the Canal Duke was not a philanthropic character on the whole. In fact as the Earl of Ellesmere makes clear in a preface of 23 July 1851 in the Catalogue of the Bridgewater Collection of Pictures \u2026 (London, 5th edn., n.d.): \u2018The impression in question [\u2018that the exhibition to the Public of the Bridgewater Collection of Pictures is compulsory, in virtue of some provision in the Will of the late Duke of Bridgewater\u2019, i.e. Passavant\u2019s contention] is in every respect totally unfounded. It is not enough to state that the Duke of Bridgewater\u2019s Will contains no direction whatever to the legal effect supposed, - no evidence written or traditional has ever reached me of any wish or intention on the part of my illustrious relative that the pictures collected by him should be exhibited to anybody\u2019.\n34. N.B. In 1810 the Marquis of Stafford visited the exhibition of the Associated Artists in Water Colours in Bond Street and as a mark of his esteem for their work sent each member a season ticket to his private gallery, a privilege hitherto enjoyed by Royal Academicians alone.\n35.

Prince Albert and Ellesmere had discussed the idea for a chronological arrangement of the exhibits, and the Prince sent Ellesmere a copy of the list of schools and masters of painting which he had asked Charles Eastlake (the National Gallery\u2019s first Director) to draw up for the Gallery\u2019s use in 1853; see Winslow Ames, Prince Albert and Victorian Taste (London, 1968), p. 149.\n44.

CXXI, no. 917 (August 1979), p. 505, note 75: Lord Francis Egerton was later offered several paintings by the dealer William Blundell Spence in 1854, but they seem to have been rejected. In a letter of 30 March 1855, he told Spence that \u2018if the National Gallery should ever shake itself into shape the works you mention would be worth its consideration. I believe Mr C. Eastlake has accepted its direction and should this be so I will mention them.\u2019\n47. N.B.

        "raw_content": "The wartime school at Hatchlands Park\nThe girls of St Anne's Convent school, out and about in the parkland at Hatchlands Mrs Margaret Gower\nA familiar view of the park, relatively unchanged since the Second World War Mrs Margaret Gower\nHatchlands Park has filled a number of different roles over its long lifespan. Chiefly it has been a family home but, in the final few years of Hal Goodhart-Rendel\u2019s ownership, it became a shelter for a group of young women to escape from the dangers of city life in wartime. Between 1939 and 1945, as London experienced daily bombing, Hatchlands provided a safe haven for the girls of St Anne\u2019s Convent School.\nWhen war broke out Hal swiftly arranged for approximately 90 children to be evacuated from their convent school near Croydon. The girls, aged from 7 to 13, started to arrive on 1 September. War was declared just two days later.\nEach pupil had to bring bedding and cutlery from home as there was little at Hatchlands to equip a school. Lessons were held in the house and the girls slept in the East Wing, formerly the servants\u2019 quarters. Meals were taken in the hall at the foot of the grand staircase and the Music Room was converted into a chapel.\nThe grand house and surrounding gardens that greeted the pupils on their arrival\nMrs Margaret Gower\nThey were accompanied by the teachers and nuns from the convent whilst Mr Brewster, the butler, assisted with the running of the house. Over the war years the school grew bigger and lesson were taken in other local buildings.\nA number of the girls have been back to visit and tell us about their experiences, including Clare Brookes:\n'I was 5 when the war broke out. We lived near Croydon and so my parents decided that I\u2019d go to boarding school at Hatchlands rather than to Dunblane in Scotland, where many other pupils were sent. My mother travelled with me by bus. The journey seemed to me to take all day, although it was actually only a couple of hours.\nAn early image of some of the girls gathered on the terrace at Hatchlands\nAfter being interviewed by Mother Felicie, the headmistress, my mother returned home. With other small children I was then confronted by a woman shrouded in black who I assumed was a witch. Later I learnt that the sisters who did domestic work wore black and the nuns who taught wore a black habit with a royal blue scapula. Both the nuns and the sisters were Ladies of Mary, part of the Josephites, a Belgian order.\nOn a few occasions, Captain Goodhart-Rendel, whom we knew as \u2018Major\u2019, came to the school and all the pupils had to be clean, tidy and on their best behaviour. We were allowed to bathe once a week but using just two inches of water.\nSchool plays brought welcome fun and the perfect setting for A Midsummer Night's Dream\nThroughout the blitz we slept in the cellars every night and again when doodlebugs were fired towards the end of the war. During air raids we had to grab a blanket and our gasmasks, before heading down to the cellars until the \u2018All Clear\u2019 sounded. We never heard sounds of gunfire or bombs falling, although on one occasion a German plane flew over and we waved to the pilot who waved back. After this the nuns made us practise lying flat if we heard a plane.\nEvery Sunday afternoon we were taken for long walks in the park and through the gates at Horsley. We were allowed to play in the park and spent a lot of time climbing the yew trees near the stables. In winter, the nuns would test the ice on the pond to see if it was thick enough for us to slide on.\nStern figures to the schoolgirls, the nuns weren't immune to fun and a spot of pond skating in winter\nThere were wild strawberries that we picked for jam, a few of which we were allowed to eat. To this day no strawberry tastes as good as those wild ones. We picked rose hips, to be made into syrup for vitamin C, and we gathered strands of silver foil that were strewn when bombs were dropped to jam the radar. Long strips were great treasures, as were pieces of shrapnel and bits of bombs.\nAll our meals were taken in the servants' hall where we sat on benches at a long table. Each morning we drank our free half-pint of milk but the food was often terrible necessitating removal through the nearest window. The meals were meagre and disgusting and I learnt to loathe all cooked vegetables. On reflection it must\u2019ve been very hard to feed anyone sufficiently and I\u2019m certain we were luckier than many.\nDuties included helping the gardener, Mr Tremlett, attend to the gardens and produce\nI was so young that it took me a long time to adjust and I resented the nuns and the discipline. It was only years later that I understood what a difficult time it must have been for them too. I met some of them at a 25 year reunion and was surprised to find that they were only middle-aged. During my schooling they must\u2019ve been young women themselves, without any experience of caring for children.\nOverall I remember these as happy days, my experiences at Hatchlands in those formative years were very beneficial. I\u2019m sure the pupils evacuated here were better off than most wartime children living near London.'\nYou can still see a little of how the girls of St Anne's Convent school lived. See the spaces where they slept and sheltered from the blitz on one of our regular cellar tours.\nHatchlands Park and the First World War\nThe First World War had an impact across the country, at every level of society. Hatchlands, like many grand houses and estates, was not immune to the trauma and tragedy of war.\nCellar tours at Hatchlands Park\nDiscover the previously unseen cellar spaces at Hatchlands Park. Take our guided tour and see how this unusual and hidden area of the building has been used over the years.\nFrancis Mathew managed The Times newspaper in the 1950s and 1960s and lived at Hatchlands for part of this period. In 1959, amid a series of print strikes, he used Hatchlands to help keep The Times in circulation.\nThe scandalous Beatie Sumner at Hatchlands Park\nCelebrated beauty, Beatie Sumner was born at Hatchlands. Her family tree boasted relationships with the Berkeleys, Danish royalty, and Lady Godiva. Already a controversial figure she regularly shocked society, but in 1885 she was struck by scandal.\nA tour of the house at Hatchlands Park\nExplore the six beautifully restored rooms on show at Hatchlands Park.

        "raw_content": "Market Snapshot: Major crude oil rail loading terminals in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin\nThe Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) has approximately 1.2 million barrels per day (MMb/d) of crude rail loading capacity.Footnote 1 Crude oil shipped from the WCSB can access refineries across North America through several large rail networks. Facilities known as rail loading terminals load the crude oil into specialized tank cars so it can be moved by train. Approximately 60% of total loading capacity in the WCSB is concentrated in northern and central Alberta, in the Edmonton and Hardisty regions. Both Edmonton and Hardisty are junction points for crude oil infrastructure and have become major hubs for crude oil exports to the United States (U.S.).\nMajor crude oil rail loading terminals in the WCSB\nSource: NEB, CAPP\nDescription: This map of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba shows the location of the 22 major crude by rail oil loading terminals in the WCSB. It shows all terminals with a capacity of more 15 000 barrels per day.\nCanada\u2019s Energy Future 2017 contains crude oil production projections. In the Reference Case total Canadian crude oil production is expected to increase by 21% from 2016 to 2020 \u2013 from 3.97 MMb/d in 2016 to 4.79 MMb/d in 2020. This increase is due to new and expansion mining facilities: Suncor\u2019s Fort Hills and CNRL\u2019s Horizon Phase 3 as well as new in situ projects and expansions and increased production from existing in situ facilities. Additionally, no major new WCSB pipeline capacity is expected to come online before 2019. These two factors suggest crude by rail may be relied on more in the near future.\nShipping crude by rail is often more expensive than pipelines. However, it can offer a flexible alternative. Pipelines are good at connecting relatively large supply basins to major markets but rail has the ability to send product and reach a variety of different sizes of markets because of its expansive reach. Canada ships numerous types of crude oil by rail to various destinations throughout North America, with much of the supply getting shipped to the U.S. Gulf Coast.\nThe actual amount of crude oil loading capacity may vary based on factors including the size of the unit trains, the size, type and capacity of the railcars used, and the type and specifications of crude oil loaded, among other factors.",

[Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on balanced (Newton\u2019s First Law) and unbalanced forces in a system, qualitative comparisons of forces, mass and changes in motion (Newton\u2019s Second Law), frame of reference, and specification of units.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to forces and changes in motion in one-dimension in an inertial reference frame and to change in one variable at a time. Assessment does not include the use of trigonometry.]\nAsk questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces. [Clarification Statement: Examples of devices that use electric and magnetic forces could include electromagnets, electric motors, or generators. Examples of data could include the effect of the number of turns of wire on the strength of an electromagnet, or the effect of increasing the number or strength of magnets on the speed of an electric motor.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment about questions that require quantitative answers is limited to proportional reasoning and algebraic thinking.]\nConstruct and present arguments using evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions are attractive and depend on the masses of interacting objects. [Clarification Statement: Examples of evidence for arguments could include data generated from simulations or digital tools; and charts displaying mass, strength of interaction, distance from the Sun, and orbital periods of objects within the solar system.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment does not include Newton\u2019s Law of Gravitation or Kepler\u2019s Laws.]\nConduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact. [Clarification Statement: Examples of this phenomenon could include the interactions of magnets, electrically-charged strips of tape, and electrically-charged pith balls. Examples of investigations could include first-hand experiences or simulations.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to electric and magnetic fields, and limited to qualitative evidence for the existence of fields.]\nAsking questions and defining problems in grades 6\u20138 builds from grades K\u20135 experiences and progresses to specifying relationships between variables, and clarifying arguments and models.\nAsk questions that can be investigated within the scope of the classroom, outdoor environment, and museums and other public facilities with available resources and, when appropriate, frame a hypothesis based on observations and scientific principles. (MS-PS2-3)\nConduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to produce data to serve as the basis for evidence that can meet the goals of the investigation. (MS-PS2-5)\nApply scientific ideas or principles to design an object, tool, process or system. (MS-PS2-1)\nEngaging in argument from evidence in 6\u20138 builds from K\u20135 experiences and progresses to constructing a convincing argument that supports or refutes claims for either explanations or solutions about the natural and designed world.\nConstruct and present oral and written arguments supported by empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to support or refute an explanation or a model for a phenomenon or a solution to a problem. (MS-PS2-4)\nScience knowledge is based upon logical and conceptual connections between evidence and explanations. (MS-PS2-2),(MS-PS2-4)\nFor any pair of interacting objects, the force exerted by the first object on the second object is equal in strength to the force that the second object exerts on the first, but in the opposite direction (Newton\u2019s third law). (MS-PS2-1)\nThe motion of an object is determined by the sum of the forces acting on it; if the total force on the object is not zero, its motion will change. The greater the mass of the object, the greater the force needed to achieve the same change in motion. For any given object, a larger force causes a larger change in motion. (MS-PS2-2)\nAll positions of objects and the directions of forces and motions must be described in an arbitrarily chosen reference frame and arbitrarily chosen units of size. In order to share information with other people, these choices must also be shared. (MS-PS2-2)\nElectric and magnetic (electromagnetic) forces can be attractive or repulsive, and their sizes depend on the magnitudes of the charges, currents, or magnetic strengths involved and on the distances between the interacting objects. (MS-PS2-3)\nGravitational forces are always attractive. There is a gravitational force between any two masses, but it is very small except when one or both of the objects have large mass\u2014e.g., Earth and the sun. (MS-PS2-4)\nForces that act at a distance (electric, magnetic, and gravitational) can be explained by fields that extend through space and can be mapped by their effect on a test object (a charged object, a magnet, or a ball, respectively). (MS-PS2-5)\nCause and effect relationships may be used to predict phenomena in natural or designed systems. (MS-PS2-3),(MS-PS2-5)\nModels can be used to represent systems and their interactions\u2014such as inputs, processes and outputs\u2014and energy and matter flows within systems. (MS-PS2-1),(MS-PS2-4)\nExplanations of stability and change in natural or designed systems can be constructed by examining the changes over time and forces at different scales. (MS-PS2-2)\nThe uses of technologies and any limitations on their use are driven by individual or societal needs, desires, and values; by the findings of scientific research; and by differences in such factors as climate, natural resources, and economic conditions.

She agreed to let Nicky transform it into a book.\nThe story tells the tale of Detective Sergeant Lee Jamieson, exiled from Newcastle 16 years ago but returning home in search of the teenage daughter he has never met.\nWith a good promotion under his belt and his parents gone, he\u2019s ready to return to his roots and the warm Geordie spirit he has missed so much.\nMuch to his surprise his first assignment is in Valley Park, a forgotten sink estate and home to some of the worst social deprivation in the country \u2013 the estate where he grew up, and where Nicola Kelly, the wife of a renowned local villain, calls home.\nAs Lee and Nicola\u2019s lives become entwined through a series of dramatic events, they fall in love and embark on a dangerous affair that will change both of their lives forever.\nThe tale of star-crossed lovers was born from a throw away comment from a police friend about the different motivations of police informers.\nJulie said: \u201c In 1999 I met a senior police officer in Newcastle who offered to check over a script I\u2019d written for accuracy on police procedure.\n\u201cAs an aside I asked him about informers, who they are and what motivates them to.\n\u201cI was fascinated to hear him categorise informers into three types \u2013 small time criminals who do it for money, people who do it for self-interest , usually to deflect police attention from their crimes or to get sentences reduced, and then the most dangerous kind of informing, women who do it for moral reasons.\n\u201cWorking in the North East has provided us with so much wonderful material,we\u2019ve got a lot more books in us.

        "title": "The Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit (SUDU)",
        "raw_content": "The Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit (SUDU)\nThe \u2018Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit\u2019 (SUDU) in Ethiopia demonstrates that it is possible to construct multi-story buildings using only soil and stone. By combining timbrel vaults and compressed earth blocks, there is no need for steel, reinforced concrete or even wood to support floors, ceilings and roofs. The SUDU could be a game-changer for African cities, where population grows fast and building materials are scarce.\nIn \u201cTiles as a substitute for steel\u201c, we highlighted the medieval art of the medieval timbrel vault, which allowed for structures that today no architect would dare to build without steel reinforcements. The technique is cheap, fast, ecological and durable. Shortly after the article was published in 2008, the timbrel vault made a comeback with two rather spectacular buildings: Richard Hawkes\u2019 Crossway Passive House in England, and Peter Rich\u2019s Mapungubwe Interpretation Centre in South Africa.\nThe cardboard formwork technique described last week promises to bring even more dramatic architecture, but at least as interesting is the news that the catalan vault is now also applied to a much more modest form of housing: the Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit (SUDU), a low-cost family dwelling built in Ethiopia.\nThe Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit (SUDU).\nThough less spectacular at first sight, it could form the proof that even megacities can be constructed without the use of steel, concrete or wood. The double-story building, which was completed in last summer, is entirely made from soil and presents an economical and ecological solution to many of Africa\u2019s most urgent problems. The SUDU stands in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, a country with a population of more than 80 million (growing at an average 7 percent per year). The building is a joint project of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich) and the Ethiopian Institute of Architecture, Building Construction and City Development (EiABC).\nThe SUDU combines past technologies from different continents, resulting in a new approach to low-tech construction adapted to specific local conditions. In the Mediterranean region, where the timbrel vault originated, the tiles have traditionally been made from fired clay. In the SUDU, the construction technique is united with the African tradition of cement-stabilized, soil-pressed bricks, which use locally available soil. This technique is called compressed earth block (CEB) construction. The SUDU has been built largely following the same techniques used for the Mapungubwe Centre in South Africa.\nThe SUDU was designed to achieve both environmental and economic sustainability. Because Ethiopia has few material and financial resources, the design is aimed at eliminating the reliance on imported, expensive and energy-intensive building materials such as steel and concrete. More unusual is that the building also excludes the use of wood, for the simple reason that wood is equally scarce in the country. The entire structure is made from locally available construction materials \u2013 and in the case of Ethiopia, these are very few: soil and stone.\nOne of the most challenging present problems for Africa (and throughout the developing world) is the tremendous deficit in housing for the urban poor. In Ethiopia, this is reflected in the ubiquitous informal housing, comprising perhaps 80% of the built environment of its capital, Addis Ababa. The most common vernacular construction method \u2013 construction with Eucalyptus wood and mud \u2013 is an economically and environmentally sustainable method of construction, but the problem of such constructions is that they are limited to one story \u2013 putting a huge strain on available land.\nThus, this vernacular technology has been more recently replaced by large urban housing projects of reinforced concrete, heavily subsidized by the government. These massive edifices of concrete and steel neither offer a model for frugal, environmentally or economically sustainable construction, nor do they offer a low-cost alternative to housing because they are too expensive to construct. The result is that more and more people are forced to be living on the streets. Whether it is the United States or Ethiopia, governments seem to prefer homeless people over shanty-towns.\nIn poorer areas of Addis Ababa, dwellings are often constructed from corrugated metal. These dwellings cannot be expanded upon for multi-story construction, yet sprawl outward, consuming limited resources including wood, expensive imported materials, and land.\nThe SUDU is an exploration of a \u201cmedium ground\u201d between single story informal dwelling and massive scale urban density, as studies have shown that even two-story buildings dramatically impact urban density. As the example of Tokyo shows, a megacity can be largely based on double-story buildings. Because the other aim is to build using only locally available materials, and wood reserves are scarce, the goals of SUDU were to build two stories in soil \u2013 a significant challenge without the aid of steel, concrete or milled lumber. Multiple-story soil architecture has a long tradition in Africa, though none of it has been constructed without wooden beams.\nBuilding multiple stories in soil is a significant challenge without the aid of steel, concrete or lumber\nAs soil and stone have limited tensile capacity, building with these materials demands compression-only structural solutions. For walls carrying dominantly vertical loads, this criterium is easily satisfied. However, once a space must be spanned, beam elements \u2013 which work in bending \u2013 are typically required. A beam, as a structural system, demands that its section can accomodate tension and compression forces, which is not possible when building in stone or soil only.\nThe Sustainable Urban Dwelling Unit (SUDU) under construction.\nBy adapting local soil knowledge to the production of soil stablized tiles, however, it is possible to introduce the technology of timbrel vaulting to allow floor and roof systems of pure compression in multiple story buildings. Ethiopia has a rich soil, which contains high levels of clay particles. Almost all excavated material in the city of Addis Ababa is a possible source for the material needed to build new structures. The SUDU uses rammed earth techniques to construct the first level of the building, with a 60 cm wide wall structure. The ceilings and floors and the building are done using a tiled vauling technique using sun-dried tiles (first floor) and loam (for the roof) made from the very same soil.\nContrary to most other vaulting techniques, the catalan vault does require little to no formwork, again bypassing the need for wood.\nModel for low-cost housing\nApart from the ecological and financial benefits, the construction technique used in the SUDU offers additional advantages. By drawing upon traditional methods, it engenders pride and social cohesion within the local community. And by using only locally available materials, it provides local jobs, introduces new skills and stimulates self-sufficiency. Through the economic benefits, the SUDU may become a model low-cost housing unit for the urban poor in Africa. It is meant to be a showcase to convince decision makers, economists, urban planners and architects to rethink traditional building methods and find new ways to build a town or even a city.\nThe construction of the SUDU was led by Lara Davis, who published a blog where the building process is documented from A to Z. There is also a movie. The BLOCK Research Group of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich) has a webpage that links to all the research papers on the construction method. A book was presented November 25. Also of interest is a special architectural 2010 issue of the ADTF Journal published by the African Technology Development Forum.

        "title": "Sexually Transmitted Diseases in Adolescents | Novant Health",
        "raw_content": "Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infectious diseases transmitted through sexual contact. Fifty percent of new STDs happen in people in the age range of 15 to 24 years.\nProtecting your adolescent from STDs\nThe best way to prevent your son or daughter from contracting an STD is to advise them to abstain from any type of sexual contact with another person. However, if they decide to become sexually active, or are currently sexually active, there are several precautionary measures to follow. These are recommended by experts to help reduce your adolescent's risk of developing a sexually transmitted disease. They include:\nHave a mutually monogamous sexual relationship with an uninfected partner.\nUse (consistently and correctly) a male latex or female polyurethane condom, even for oral sex.\nUse sterile needles if injecting intravenous drugs.\nDecrease susceptibility to HIV infections by preventing and controlling other STDs. Having another STD makes it easier to get infected with HIV.\nDelay having sexual relationships as long as possible. The younger a person is when they begin to have sex for the first time, the more susceptible they become to developing an STD.\nAvoid having sexual intercourse during menstruation.\nAvoid anal intercourse, or use a male latex condom and topical microbicides.\nWhat should my adolescent do if diagnosed with an STD?\nBegin treatment immediately, take the full course of medicines, and follow your healthcare provider's advice.\nNotify all recent sexual partners and urge them to get medical checkups. If your son or daughter does not wish to do this personally, your local health department will provide assistance.\nAvoid sexual activity while under treatment for an STD. If your partner also needs treatment, wait until his or her treatment is completed as well.\nNumerous STDs have been identified. According to the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the CDC, common types of STDs include:\nHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV, the virus that causes acquired immunodeficiency symptoms (AIDS), destroys the body's ability to fight off infection. It is spread by unprotected sex with an infected person, as well as through contact with infected blood or contaminated needles. People with advanced HIV infection are very susceptible to many life-threatening diseases and to certain forms of cancer.\nHuman papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a common sexually transmitted disease that can cause genital warts called condylomas. These can happen on the inside or outside areas of the genitals and may spread to the surrounding skin or to a sexual partner. Because HPV infection does not always cause warts, the infection may go undetected.\nWomen with an HPV infection have an increased risk of developing cervical cancer. Regular Pap tests can detect HPV infection, as well as abnormal cervical cells. An HPV vaccine is available to help prevent cervical cancer and genital warts. It is recommended starting at age 11 but can be given as young as 9 years of age. Discuss this with your child's healthcare provider.\nAlthough there is treatment for genital warts (which sometimes go away on their own), the virus remains and warts can reappear. Certain types of HPV can also cause warts\u2014called common warts\u2014on other body parts such as the hands. However, these do not generally cause health problems.\nChlamydia. Chlamydial infections, the most common of all STDs, can affect both men and women. They may cause an abnormal genital discharge and burning with urination. In women, untreated chlamydial infection may lead to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). This is an infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other reproductive organs that causes symptoms such as lower belly pain. Chlamydial infections can be treated with antibiotic therapy. Unfortunately, many people with chlamydial infection have few or no symptoms. The most common and serious complications happen in women and include pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic (tubal) pregnancy, and infertility. Men may have urinary symptoms or have no symptoms while they have chlamydia.\nGonorrhea. Gonorrhea causes a discharge from the vagina or penis and painful or difficult urination. The most common and serious complications happen in women and include pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic (tubal) pregnancy, and infertility.\nGonorrhea infections can be treated with antibiotic therapy.\nGenital herpes. Genital herpes infections are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Symptoms may include painful blisters or open sores in the genital area. These may be preceded by a tingling or burning sensation in the area. The herpes sores usually disappear within a few weeks, but the virus remains in the body and the lesions may recur from time to time.\nThere is no cure for HSV but there are antiviral agents to take that can shorten an outbreak and reduce symptoms.\nSyphilis. The initial symptom of syphilis is a painless open sore that usually appears on the penis, in the vagina, or around either sexual organ. Untreated syphilis may go on to more advanced stages, including a transient rash and, eventually, serious involvement of the heart and central nervous system. Syphilis infections can be treated with antibiotic therapy.\nPelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID is a serious complication women can get from some STDs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea. PID refers to an infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other reproductive organs. It can cause lower belly pain and, later on, infertility.\nOral ulcers (oral sex can result in ulcers from gonorrhea or herpes)\nFacts about STDs and adolescents\nSTDs affect men and women of all backgrounds and economic levels. However, nearly half of all STD cases in the U.S. happen in people younger than age 25.\nSTDs are on the rise, possibly due to more sexually active people who have multiple sex partners during their lives.\nMany STDs initially cause no symptoms. In addition, many STD symptoms may be confused with those of other diseases not transmitted through sexual contact\u2014especially in women. Even symptomless STDs can be contagious and can later cause chronic or serious health problems.\nWomen suffer more frequent and severe symptoms from STDs:\nSome STDs can spread into the uterus (womb) and fallopian tubes and cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). This can lead to both infertility and ectopic (tubal) pregnancy.\nSome strains of HPV infection in women may also be associated with cervical cancer. In both women and men, these strains may cause anal, head, and neck cancer.\nOnce diagnosed, many STDs can be successfully treated. Some STDs, such as herpes, cannot be completely cured and may happen again, but each recurrence can be controlled.",

        "raw_content": "Peregrine Monitoring 2007\nWildlife biologist monitoring peregrine falcon activity\nContact: Matt Varner, 304 465-6542\n\u201cEvery year at this time, we ask the public to help increase the likelihood that peregrine falcons might select a nesting site along the Endless Wall,\u201d said Debbie Darden, Acting Superintendent for the National Park Service (NPS) at New River Gorge National River. \u201cBy using other locations for hiking and rock climbing for the next two months, local residents and visitors will help create the environment preferred by these magnificent birds, which includes areas with minimal human activity,\u201d Darden explained.\nThe National Park Service has conducted limited monitoring every year since peregrines were reintroduced to the park in 1987-1990, but no nesting pairs have been found. Last year, NPS Wildlife Biologist Matt Varner initiated a multi-year restoration program for the peregrine falcon, and 15 young peregrines were released into the Gorge.\n\u201cAlthough it is unlikely that the falcons released in 2006 will return this year to breed, any falcon observations within the gorge are considered a positive indication of the project\u2019s overall success. The NPS believes human activity during the bird\u2019s critical \u201ccourtship\u201d period in early spring may be one of the key reasons that no nesting activity has been observed in New River Gorge in the past,\u201d said Varner. \u201cThus, we are asking the public to avoid using the area between the easternmost segment of the Endless Wall trail and the Keeney\u2019s Creek drainage between February 12th and April 27th.\u201d\nKnown for its speed, beauty, and agility, the peregrine is a member of the falcon family, a group of birds marked by pointed wings, narrow tails, and strong rapid wing beats. Historically, peregrines nested in cliffs and rocky outcrops of the Appalachian Mountains. In the 1950s and 1960s its population in the eastern United States was decimated by the widespread use of pesticides. DDT and other chlorinated hydrocarbons in the food chain caused thinning of the eggshells, resulting in the eggs being broken during incubation. Reintroduction programs are gradually returning the peregrine to its former range throughout North America.\nFor the next two months, the NPS requests that persons planning to hike or climb near the Endless Wall consider using alternative locations to ensure the effectiveness of this monitoring program. Sites offering similar recreational opportunities are listed below. Additional information can be obtained at the NPS Canyon Rim Visitor Center.",

        "raw_content": "National competition places Northwest in top 10 for energy reduction\nBy Nikeila Jensen, media relations assistant\nNorthwest Missouri State University, which continues to strive for energy efficiency and conservation, is ranked among the top 10 universities in the nation, according to results of the 2015 Campus Conservation Nationals, marking the second time in three years that the University has earned the distinction.\n\u201cCampus Conservation Nationals shows how college students are pioneering efforts to create a more sustainable future, starting with their campuses,\u201d said Hannah Debelius, the students program lead at the Center for Green Schools at the U.S. Green Building Council, which partners with Lucid, the Alliance to Save Energy and the National Wildlife Federation to organize the contest. \u201cThese students demonstrate the importance of making small daily changes to save energy and water. The results are remarkable, and every student and institution that participated should be proud of this accomplishment.\u201d\nNorthwest saved 65,706 kilowatt-hours, averted 123,593 pounds of carbon dioxide and saved $3,942 during the four-week competition. That is the equivalent of greenhouse gas emissions from nine passenger vehicles, CO2 emissions from 5,089 gallons of gasoline and CO2 emissions from electricity use in four homes for a year. The totals are based on the energy-savings of Northwest residence halls Hudson-Perrin, Dieterich, Franken, Millikan, South Complex, Roberta and Tower Suites.\nIn conjunction with Campus Conservation Nationals, Northwest residence halls also competed in a campus-sponsored contest, \u201cFlip the Switch Reduce Your Pawprint,\u201d to win funding toward new equipment for their buildings. That contest resulted in savings of $3,942 and 65,706 kilowatt-hours of electricity with a greenhouse gas avoidance equal to burning 48,866 pounds of coal. Hudson-Perrin, the reigning champion for the past three years, won the campus competition by reducing its energy usage by 31 percent.\nThrough contests and throughout the academic year, Northwest encourages its residents to take energy-reducing actions as simple as closing windows tightly, disconnecting plugs to electronics and appliances when they\u2019re not in use, and shutting off lights when leaving rooms.\n\u201cIt\u2019s important for students to recognize that they can have a positive impact on their environment by doing something as simple as flipping a switch and making a conscious effort to conserve,\u201d Northwest Energy Manager Daniel Boyt said.\nNow in its fifth year, the 2015 Campus Conservation Nationals competition involved 125 colleges and universities and saved the schools more than $290,000 in electricity and water while reducing greenhouse gas emissions equal to taking 182 homes off the grid for a year. During five years of the competition, participants have saved 6 million kilowatt hours of electricity, equivalent to averting more than 9 million pounds of CO2 from the atmosphere.\nCalifornia State University-Chico, Concordia College in Moorhead, Minn., Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pa., Eastern Mennonite University in Harrisonburg, Va., Georgia State University, Hofstra University in Hempstead, N.Y., Oklahoma State University, San Diego State University and Western Technical College in La Crosse, Wis., rounded out the top 10 institutions in the Campus Conservation Nationals.\nFor more information about the 2015 Campus Conservation Nationals, visit www.competetoreduce.org.\nAbout Northwest sustainability programs\nNorthwest\u2019s sustainability efforts date back to 1982 when the University established a biomass energy system utilizing wood chips. Since then, Northwest continues to enhance its energy program through the addition of discarded paper products and animal waste to its alternative fuel processes while collecting food waste for composting.\nSince establishing an energy management program in 2012, Northwest has saved more than $1.6 million in utilities, and avoided about 24.4 million pounds of CO2. In 2011, Northwest also created its Sustainability Office to reduce negative impacts on the environment and educate students about ways they can contribute.\nIn February, for the third time in four years, Northwest received the Missouri State Recycling Program Annual Award in recognition of its recycling and sustainability efforts. During the spring trimester, Northwest also participated in RecycleMania \u2013 a nationwide contest to increase student engagement in recycling and waste reduction \u2013 and recycled 109,225 pounds of materials to rank second in Missouri and 51st in the nation among 394 participating institutions.\nMost recently, Northwest Facility Services and student organizations, in collaboration with the city of Maryville, organized Big Green Move Out, an annual effort encouraging students to donate clothes, foods, furniture and appliances to reduce the amount of waste that goes to local landfills. This year\u2019s push sent four box trucks of furniture to Habitat for Humanity\u2019s Restore, 600 pounds of food to the Maryville Ministry Center, and nearly 3,000 pounds of clothing and household goods to Big Brothers Big Sister of Nodaway County.\nFor information about sustainability and recycling at Northwest, visit www.nwmissouri.edu/services/sustainability/.",

        "title": "Here's to you, Chuck Daly - New York Daily News",
        "raw_content": "Here's to you, Chuck Daly\nThis one is for Chuck Daly today.\nThis one is for Chuck Daly because he has always been one of the good guys, even if he did coach that famous Pistons team known as the Bad Boys. This one is for Chuck Daly, who not only knew how to win in basketball but knew how to do it with tremendous style. Who never thought of himself as some kind of genius, or thought he was reinventing his sport when he had the players.\nIn that way, he was like a very cool, very successful old Hollywood producer named Walter Mirisch, who said it all with the title of his book: \"I Thought We Were Making Movies Not History.\"\nThis one is for Chuck Daly, who is 78 and fighting pancreatic cancer.\nOne time, when he was with the Nets, his next-to-last stop in coaching, he was talking about his philosophy, or as much of a philosophy as he ever allowed himself to have.\n\"(Players) allow you to coach them,\" Daly said. \"If you don't understand that, you have no chance to succeed in this business.\"\nHe won two titles with the Bad Boys, the first when he was nearly 60 years old. He won with Isiah and Dumars and Bill Laimbeer and Dennis Rodman, and the truth is he should have won three titles in a row, should have beaten the Lakers another time and should have beaten them and would have beaten them if not for a cheesy call against Laimbeer - on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, of course - at the end of Game 6 in the 1988 Finals.\nWhen they had to pick somebody to coach the first Dream Team in the Barcelona Olympics, to coach Michael and Magic and Larry and Barkley and the rest of them, he was the obvious choice. The people picking the coach knew that those players, as famous as there have ever been in pro basketball history, would allow Daly to coach them, too. And he did.\nHe was the basketball coach at Boston College when I got there and even then, it wasn't just Daly's coaching that everybody talked about, it was the clothes, too, and the hair and the style. In those days his players all did the same impression of him:\nDaly pulling out a comb and running it through that wavy hair of his one more time before he walked out of the tiny dressing room at a tiny basketball place called Roberts Center and going out to coach his team.\nHe went from Roberts Center to Penn and won there. He went from Penn to a seat next to Billy Cunningham with the 76ers and then he got a shot with the Cavs, and promptly went 9-32 and got fired. Daly was already past 50 by then, and had to wonder if that was his shot. Only a year later he got with the Pistons and the rest is basketball history. He coached nine years in Detroit and the worst he ever did - worst - was 46-36. And at the end of the Showtime era with the Lakers, at the end of Magic and Kareem and Worthy and the rest, what the Lakers finally walked into with Daly's Bad Boys was a rock fight.\nYou thought he was through with coaching when he left the Pistons. But Chuck Daly was a star coach by then, and the money he got offered to come back was star money. So he went with the Nets, and won 43 in Jersey one season and 45 the next. When Pat Riley left the Knicks, Daly was Dave Checketts' first call, but the story was he wanted around $3 million a year, and so the job went to Don Nelson and we know how that worked out at the Garden.\nHe did television after he left the Nets, and brought all his fun to that. There was the night at the Garden when Shaquille O'Neal came in to face Patrick Ewing, way before Shaq went to L.A. and won his titles. But Daly talked about Shaq that night as if he could see it all coming, how big Shaq was going to be in all ways.\n\"People love size,\" Daly said to me that night. This was the year he made the Hall of Fame, finally. \"They love big action guys and he's a big action guy. He comes crashing into the whole thing like it's a Schwarzenegger movie, like he's going to annihilate the backboard and everything else.\"\nShaq finally left Orlando and even after he was gone, Daly took one more coaching job with the Magic, got one more payday. And in the strike season of 1998-99, all he did was go 33-17 with the Magic and make the playoffs one more time and then he was finally through coaching, as he came up on the age of 70.\nFrom there it was supposed to be complaining about his putting at Jupiter Hills or how much money he was losing to Rollie Massimino and Cunningham, and laughing a lot and still being the best quote around. Mostly because Daly, across this amazing basketball life, had earned that.\nNow comes this news about a bad kind of cancer, at the end of a week when a baseball player's bad hip was treated like the first sign of the end of the world. So this is both a shout-out and a prayer for the great Chuck Daly today, who did make history. And also an apology for the way he was slightly misrepresented at the start of this. Because he isn't just one of the good guys. He is one of the best guys.\nLet me just say this about the way last week's \"24\" ended: If Jack Bauer can get the President out of this one, maybe he's the one who should be doing crisis management for A-Rod.\nOn what planet does Bernie Madoff think he gets to keep some of the money?\nWillie Sutton, not nearly the thief that Madoff is, probably wished it worked that way.\nPresident Obama goes through these Cabinet people the way George Steinbrenner used to go through managers.\nIt was certainly a relief to read all the stories about how in a country rocked by higher and higher unemployment figures that Terrell Owens wouldn't be out of work long.\nBernie Williams will still think he can play in the big leagues when he's as old as Rickey Henderson.\nIt's still kind of amazing that Isiah was sure you could build a winning team around Steph and Eddy Curry.\nShaq and Stan Van Gundy seem to have a nice healthy dialogue going now.\nAnd Shaq reveals a lot more about himself than Van Gundy does, mostly how even big action heroes turn into delicate flowers at the hint of criticism.\nBut then we get a lot of that in sports.\nSometimes you wonder if Charles Barkley thinks he has a drinking problem or just a getting-caught problem.\nWhich would make him somewhat like A-Rod in that regard.\nBy the way? It was nice to see that even with a sore hip, Alex Rodriguez had time to turn his daughters into one more photo op this week.\nI have joked here for a while about the Curse of the Bam-Booney, which means everything that has happened with the Yankees since Aaron Boone ripped up his knee in a pickup basketball game and set up the trade that brought Rodriguez to New York in the first place.\nBut now that A-Rod has turned out to be a positive dope test...\nAnd if he really is out for an extended period of time...\nAnd if the Yankees, even spending $400 million on new contracts this season after spending just about the same on new contracts for A-Rod and Rivera and Posada last season, don't win this year...\nIf you don't think Kansas' Bill Self can coach his team, check out the job he's done in what was supposed to be a regrouping sort of a season in Lawrence, Kan.\nIf Donald Fehr has been such a big advocate for drug testing in baseball, maybe he can explain why back in the mid-90s he told Jerry McMorris of the Rockies that there'd be drug testing in baseball over his dead body.\nFehr's, not McMorris'.\nYou really did have to love David Stern explaining that $200 million loan some of his teams needed as just being a show of how strong the league's credit strength is.\nSometimes the commish really is cuter than a junebug, no kidding.\nWhy do the Knicks continue to say they sell out these games when everybody in the building can see that they haven't?\nNate Robinson somehow seemed to be under the impression that it was him against Dwyane Wade last Saturday night in Miami.\nI hope David Wright is MVP this season.\nIs there some way that Chris Bosh can be a Knick sooner rather than later?\nFinally, today, a column that began with the subject of cancer ends with the same subject, because it comes up a lot in this column, often as it relates to the Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with Cancer.\nDick Vitale, for years, has endlessly and tirelessly and passionately fought against cancer through the V Foundation, which honors the memory of Jimmy Valvano.\nThis year the V Foundation will honor Rick Pitino and Billy Donovan on May 15, at the Ritz-Carlton in Sarasota, Fla.\nIt is a wonderful cause, and a wonderful event, and if you want ticket information, please call the Ritz in Sarasota, or contact the V Foundation at JimmyV.org.\nYou'll be glad you did, baby.\nAnd one more thing about sports today:\nDo the last few weeks of the season qualify as Brett Favre's time off with the Jets?",

        "title": "Mr KL and Athlone Institute of Technology (FOI Act 2014)",
        "raw_content": "Mr KL and Athlone Institute of Technology (FOI Act 2014)\nWhether AIT complied with the provisions of section 10 of the FOI Act in responding to the applicant's request for statements of reasons relating to his interactions with AIT relevant to his role as a lecturer within AIT\nThe applicant made three requests on three separate dates in 2016 to AIT under section 10 of the FOI Act for statements of reasons for a variety of matters. In total, he identified 28 separate matters relating to his interactions with AIT relevant to his role as a lecturer within AIT, for which he sought statements of reasons.\nIn its original decisions, AIT provided a response on each of the 28 points, providing reasons or an explanation for many of the matters identified. Statements were refused in respect of some matters under section 15(1)(i) on the basis that the records were already available to the applicant while others were refused on the ground that the decision for which a statement of reasons was sought was not an act of AIT in which the applicant would have had a material interest.\nThe applicant sought an internal review of those decisions on all points and the internal review decisions of AIT affirmed its original decisions. The applicant sought a review by this Office of AIT's decisions on 2 November 2016.\nGiven the similarities arising in the three applications for review, I have decided to conclude all three by way of a single binding decision. In conducting the reviews, I have had regard to the correspondence between the applicant and AIT in connection with his requests. I have also had regard to the correspondence between this Office and both the applicant and AIT on the matter.\nThis review is concerned solely with the question of whether AIT has complied with the requirements of section 10 in respect of the applicant's requests.\nSection 10 of the FOI Act provides that a person who is affected by an act of an FOI body, and has a material interest in a matter affected by the act or to which it relates, is entitled to a statement of reasons for the act as well as a statement of any findings on any material issues of fact made for the purposes of that act. Section 10(5) provides that a person has a material interest in a matter affected by an act of an FOI body or to which it relates:\n\"if the consequence or effect of the act may be to confer on or withhold from the person a benefit without also conferring it on or withholding it from persons in general or a class of persons which is of significant size having regard to all the circumstances and of which the person is a member.\"\n\"Benefit\" is defined at section 10(13) of the Act as including\n\"(a) any advantage to the person,\n(c) the avoidance of a loss, liability, penalty, forfeiture, punishment or other disadvantage affecting the person.\"\nThis Office has previously set out its approach to, and interpretation of, the equivalent provision of the FOI Acts 1997 & 2003 (Section 18). While not identical, section 10 is quite similar to that equivalent provision. Insofar as it applies to this review, I am satisfied that the approach previously adopted remains relevant to my consideration of section 10 of the Act of 2014 including, in particular, the following principles:\nThere are many acts/decisions taken by FOI bodies where section 10 has no relevance. The Oireachtas could not have intended that FOI bodies should be required, on demand, to provide a written statement of reasons and findings on any material issues of fact made for the purposes of every single action of the body. There will be many instances where a number of secondary actions/decision are taken in the course of making a substantive decision which affects a person and where that person has a material interest in a matter affected by that substantive decision or to which it relates. However, section 10 does not entitle a person affected by the substantive decision to a statement of reasons in respect of each and every action which was taken in arriving at that decision.\nThe requirement on the public body to provide a statement of reasons for an act of the body does not require each and every member of staff who might have contributed in any way or had been involved in the decision making process to provide an account of his/her reasons for every action he/she carried out during the course of the body's decision making process. What section 10 requires is that the head provide a statement of reasons which adequately explains why the body acted as it did.\nTaking section 10 as a whole, the word \"act\" in the section must be interpreted as the exercise (or refusal to exercise) of a power or function which may result in the conferring or withholding of a benefit. In addition, the reasons for the act must have a bearing on the outcome of whether a person receives or does not receive a benefit or suffers a loss or a penalty or other disadvantage. In other words, if the same outcome would result regardless of the reasons for the act in question then section 10 does not apply to that act.\nThe appropriateness, or otherwise, of administrative actions taken by FOI bodies is not relevant for the purposes of section 10. Indeed, the remit of this Office does not extend to examining the appropriateness or otherwise of the particular act for which reasons are sought under section 10. Thus, even if the act or decision in question was somehow flawed, that would not be something that this Office could require the FOI body to rectify.\nIn cases where the FOI body has refused to provide a statement of reasons, the Commissioner's review is concerned with whether the FOI body was entitled to refuse to provide the statement of reasons. In cases where the applicant is not satisfied with statement of reasons provided, the Commissioner's role is confined to deciding whether the FOI body has complied with the requirements of section 10 of the FOI Act i.e. is the statement given adequate?\nThe applicant appears to be of the view that he can avail of the rights afforded by section 10 to require AIT to answer any queries he has concerning the manner in which AIT engaged with him and to explain each act, regardless of the consequences of each act. As is clear from the principles I have described above, this is not the case. Having examined each of the 28 matters identified by the applicant, I am satisfied that the vast majority are not \"acts\" or \"decisions\" of AIT that can reasonably be described as the exercise (or refusal to exercise) of a power or function which may result in the conferring or withholding of a benefit. Many of the \"acts\" are simply the applicant's interpretation of his engagements with his colleagues and in some cases AIT has disputed those interpretations. These are not acts for which AIT is required to give reasons.\nFor example, the applicant sought a statement of reasons for the decision made by a colleague to defame his character and cyber-bully him in an email. AIT found that there was no evidence to support such an allegation, a finding with which the applicant agreed in his request for internal review. In its decision of 1 April 2016, AIT described the email as having issued in the context of work being undertaken for a programmatic review which it is required to undertake every five years. It stated that the email was commenting on the draft syllabus prepared by the applicant for a particular programme. In my view, the applicant did not identify an act of AIT in this case. Even if he did, I am satisfied that he does not have a material interest in the act as it did not confer on or withhold from him a benefit.\nMany of the other matters identified are not acts in which the applicant has a material interest as they did not confer on, or withhold from, him a benefit. Let me take a specific example for the benefit of the applicant:\nThe applicant sought a statement of reasons for the decision of a named official of AIT to advise him that he would be subject to disciplinary action in an email of 4 September 2015. He made three further applications for reasons for the decisions of three other officials of AIT to support that decision. In the email in question, the relevant official informed the applicant that if he refused to deliver his timetable the following week as instructed, he would be referred to the HR Department, and that he (the official) was informed that the provisions of AIT's disciplinary policy would apply in such an event.\nIf disciplinary action had been taken, the applicant would have been entitled to a statement of reasons as to why the substantive act of disciplinary action was taken, as he would clearly have been affected by that act. However, it seems to me that the reason why the official in question advised the applicant that he would be subject to disciplinary action has no bearing on the outcome of whether the applicant received or did not receive a benefit or suffered a loss or a penalty or other disadvantage. In other words, he does not have a material interest in a matter affected by the act identified.\nOverall, I find that the applicant's applications for statements of reasons are based on an incorrect interpretation of the rights afforded by section 10. The section does not require an FOI body to explain or justify each and every step in its engagements with an individual. Rather it is aimed at ensuring that the individual can understand, without undue difficulty, why the FOI body took a particular action or made a particular decision that affected the individual in circumstances where the consequence or effect of the act may be to confer on or withhold from the individual a benefit.\nFor the sake of completeness, I should add that one of the 28 matters identified by the applicant, taken in isolation, may comprise a valid \"act\" for which AIT is required to provide a statement of reasons, namely the decision of AIT to refuse an overtime claim he submitted. However, I note that AIT specifically explained why it did so in emails to the applicant dated 22 October 2015 and 13 November 2015. I fail to see how the applicant could reasonably argue that he required a statement of reasons to allow him to understand why AIT took that decision.\nHaving carefully considered the matter, I find that AIT was not required, under the provisions of section 10 of the FOI Act, to provide the statements of reasons sought.\nHaving carried out a review under section 22(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2014, I hereby vary the decision of AIT. I find that the AIT was not required, under section 10, to provide the statements of reasons sought.",

It is in the state of Rajasthan. It stands ona rocky upland that is 500 feet high. The fort is spread through 700 acres. Rana Kumbha was the one who officially built this fort. His palace is the oldest monument within the fort.\nThe palace was built from 1433 - 1468. It was built with plastered stone. The entrance is known as \u2018Suraj pol\u2019. Darikhana or Sabha (council chamber), Ganesha temple and the zenana (residence for women) are the main attractions of the fort. But the most attractive features of the palace is its canopied balconies. There are also stables for elephant and horses, houses for nobles and palace attendants. But, they have been almost ruined now.\nRani Padmini\u2019s Palace is another monument that catches one\u2019s attention. It is a three storied white building. The palace is surrounded by water. The balconies make the palace really charming. Bhimlat kund is an artificial tank existing near this palace. It is dedicated to Bhima, the strongest of the Pandava brothers. There is a three - storied tower called Chonda house. It was built in early 15th century.\nThe Naulakha Bhandar (nine lakh treasury) was built by Rana Kumbha. It is small fort in itself. It was here that all the wealth of Chittor was stored. In northeastern corner there is a small temple called Shringar Chaori. It has some beautiful carvings of gods and goddesses,. It is a Jain temple which was built into the fort wall in 1448. Two big temples also are within the fort. One was built by Rana Kumbha and the other by Mir Bai. Rana Kumbha\u2019s Vrij temple was built around 1450. It is dedicated Varah, the god with the body of a man and the head of a boar.\nAnother monument within the fort is Kunwar Pade ka Mahal. It was the place of the price of Chittor. It was built in 1450. Ogee arches or the S - Shaped arches are the speciality of this palace. The Rajputs used such arches for the first time in this palace. Later, they became the trademark of Rajput architecture. The blue tiles used in this palace also are very beautiful and attractive.\nFateh Prakash is the most modern building in Chittor. It was built in the early 20th century. This palace was the residence of Maharana Fateh Singh, Chittor\u2019s ruler. He died in 1930. Now, the Government of India has established a museum in a part of the building.\nThe main gateway to the fort is something to be mentioned. There is a limestone bridge leading to the fort. It is supported by ten arches. The bridge is built across the Gambheri River. Altogether, there are seven imposing gateways. They are massive stone structures. They were powerful enough to resist the attacks with elephants and cannot shots. There is an ancient Tulja Bhawani temple in honour of goddess Tulja.\nBappa Rawal built the Kallika Mata temple in the 8th century. It was dedicated to Surya, the Sun god. After its destruction Rana Hammir rebuilt it as a Kali temple in the 14th century. Mahasati is a small terrace. The Ranas of Chittor were cremated in the Mahasati. Stones marking satis surround it. Sati was custom existed in the Indian Society. As per this, the widows were burnt alive with the bodies of their husbands. Gaumukh is a fountain formed in the mouth of a \u2018cow\u2019.\nVijaystambha or Victory Tower is the most impressive monument of Chittor. Rana Kumbha erected it from 1457 - 1458. He erected it after he defeated the combined armies of Malwa and Gujarat. The tower is 122 feet high. It has nine stories and the base itself is 42 feet broad. Each of the nine stories had doorways leading into balconies. An architect called Jaita in the Jain style designed it.",

        "raw_content": "If you\u2019ve suffered from headaches of any severity for an extended amount of time, you\u2019ve likely tried everything for relief. Whether it\u2019s over-the-counter medication, prescription medication or any other types of treatments, all you want to find is something that works. You may have heard of acupuncture for headaches before, but don\u2019t know enough about it to give it a second thought. It\u2019s never too late to get an acupuncture treatment, even if you\u2019ve suffered from headaches for many years. We are here to help you understand more about how it works and why you should see an acupuncturist.\nWhat Types of Headaches Can Acupuncture Relieve?\nThe type of acupuncture treatment a patient gets depends on the type of headache they have. There are numerous types of headaches a person could experience, including:\nHypertensive headaches\nOf course, there are other reasons why you may experience headaches, but these are the main ones causing the most people some sort of pain. Sometimes the type of headache you have is obvious, but if you simply don\u2019t know why you\u2019re getting headaches frequently, consider visiting a specialist to narrow it down prior to your acupuncture treatment.\nPinpointing The Type of Headache is Helpful\nAcupuncture is a targeted treatment, so pinpointing the type of headache is important to maximize its effectiveness. This is why some traditional medications simply don\u2019t work, because it\u2019s not designed to target the specific area where the headache is occurring. People suffering from frequent migraines often turn to acupuncture because of the serious amount of pain they experience when one is happening. The great thing about acupuncture for migraines is it can be effective whether you know when it\u2019s going to happen or not. Getting a routine acupuncture treatment can help eliminate some of the main causes of getting a migraine, such as stress or other factors.\nAcupuncture Combined With Lifestyle Changes Produces Best Results\nWhen you visit an acupuncturist for an acupuncture treatment, you will be evaluated for a long-term treatment plan in order to produce the best results. Acupuncture for headaches is effective on its own, but combining it with subtle lifestyle changes can enhance the long-term benefits as well. For example, if you get frequent tension headaches, combining acupuncture with not putting yourself in stressful situations as often can help with long-term headache relief. Of course, sometimes these situations are unavoidable, but making a conscious effort and getting a routine acupuncture treatment will go a long way in reducing your headaches.\nOn Point Acupuncture & Wellness helps people suffering from any type of headache. We take the time to evaluate your overall health in order to pinpoint the type of headache and provide the best acupuncture treatment to relieve your pain. Whether you\u2019ve suffered from headaches for two weeks or two years, contact us today to schedule an appointment for the best relief possible.",

        "title": "Blepharoplasty New York City (NYC) | Eyelid Lift Manhattan",
        "raw_content": "A forehead lift or \u201cbrowlift\u201d is used to correct a drooping browline (eyebrow area) reducing the horizontal lines and furrows (worry lines) that often make a person appear angry, sad or tired. The procedure creates a refreshed, youthful appearance to the forehead area above the eyes. When performing a forehead lift procedure, muscles and tissue areas that droop or cause creases are removed or corrected to smooth the skin on the forehead to reduce frown lines and raise the eyebrows. There are two surgical methods, and during your initial consultation the procedure that works best for you will be recommended. The first is the most conventional method where a surgical incision is hidden just above the hairline. Browlifts are also performed using an endoscope which enables the procedure to be performed with a minimal number of incisions. While the traditional method can sometimes attain more lift, both methods create smoother, flatter skin on the forehead.\nSeveral factors such as aging, sun damage, smoking, stretching and obesity can cause the eyelids to droop and sag as the supporting tissues deteriorate. This area is often one of the first to deteriorate, as the skin of the eyelid is thinner than the rest of the face. Eyelids that droop or bulge can cause people to appear much older or fatigued than they actually are. Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the upper and lower eyelids by tightening muscles and tissue or removing excess fat and skin. This procedure can be performed on men and women alike and offers a younger, more refreshed look that reflects across the whole face.\nBlepharoplasty is now the most popular facial plastic surgery procedure after rhinoplasty. The popularity of this procedure reflects the importance of the eyes in perfecting overall appearance. In fact, two-thirds of adults consider the eyes to be the defining feature of the face. If you are unhappy with the appearance of your eyes, you may want to consider blepharoplasty to improve your look and boost your confidence through a safe procedure with minimal downtime.\nThe best candidates for blepharoplasty are individuals who are in good overall health and who do not smoke or have any serious eye conditions. If you have loose, sagging skin or puffy bags around your eyes, this procedure can help reduce these unwanted effects and leave the eyes looking young and fresh. It is important for patients to have realistic expectations before undergoing surgery in order to be satisfied with their results. While this procedure can enhance your appearance and may improve self-confidence as a result, it cannot alter your entire appearance or change the structure of your face.\nThe blepharoplasty procedure is performed under local anesthesia with sedation. General anesthesia may be used for anxious or nervous patients. Patients may choose to have this procedure on their upper or lower eyelids, or both. Depending on these choices, the procedure can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours. If the upper eyelid is being treated, an incision is made along the natural crease of the eyelid. Once the incision is made, Dr. Monasebian may reposition fat deposits, tighten muscles and tissue or remove excess skin in order to leave the eye looking younger and refreshed. For the lower eyelid, an incision is made just below the lash line in order for excess skin to be removed. In select patients where there is just excessive fat and no skin excess, an incision inside the eyelid is performed known as a transconjunctival blepharoplasty. With this procedure, there is no scarring at all on the skin. After the procedure is performed, the incisions are closed with sutures and usually wrapped in gauze to allow the area to heal.\nRecovery from Blepharoplasty\nAfter the blepharoplasty procedure, Dr. Monasebian may recommend applying lubricating ointment and cold compresses to aid the healing process and minimize side effects such as swelling, bruising, irritation or dry eyes. The eyes may be wrapped in gauze after the procedure as well. Patients can usually return to work within two days, but should avoid exercise and strenuous activities for at least two weeks. Swelling and other side effects usually subside within two weeks after surgery. Dr. Monasebian will give you specific instructions on how to care for your eyes are surgery.\nResults of Blepharoplasty\nResults of a blepharoplasty procedure are visible as swelling and bruising subside and will continue to improve for up to a year after surgery. This procedure is designed to produce long-lasting results. While surgery cannot prevent your eyes from aging, most patients are satisfied with their results and do not seek repeat procedures. The scars from the blepharoplasty procedure are usually well concealed and will fade with time until they are virtually unnoticeable. The incision is hidden in the crease of the eyelid in an upper blepharoplasty, and just below the lashes in a lower blepharoplasty.\nIf you are interested in learning more about Lifts, Click Here or call 212.472.8700 today to schedule an appointment.",

        "raw_content": "Officer Involved Project is creating Documentaries from Real Perspectives in Law Enforcement\nFirst - THANKS for taking a moment to read about how YOU can become part of this independent film project that started in 2013. WE live in a time when police officers and citizens are portrayed as somehow being in perpetual conflict with each other. What if I told you that WE are changing that. Check out what we're doing and become PART of this MOVEMENT!\nMy name is Patrick W. Shaver and I'm a filmmaker. I'm also a cop. I'm a father, a husband, a son, and a human. I'm a writer, a speaker, and an instructor. Since 2013, I've been collecting perspectives in American policing to help tell the stories of those just like me and the impact that our decisions have on us and those around us. Along the way, I've met thousands of police officers, community and family members, public servants, and every day citizens across the nation who have a compelling story to tell. My first film Officer Involved was a way of exploring the impact of being involved in a shooting and my upcoming film Dinkheller demystifies the rumors that exist 20-years after the loss of Deputy Kyle Dinkheller in the most infamous dash cam video ever captured. Since early 2014, we've Brough together a Facebook following, known as Officer Involved Project, who have gotten to follow us from the very beginning. Our work is about more than just being an officer involved. We take new looks at old ideas and bring perspective to unsung heroes.\nWe are creating well-crafted subject-focused videos and short/long films. Our work is in the genre of police documentary, though we are interested in public service in general in the long-term.\nWhen you follow us, you find that we use this term a lot; we. Officer Involved Project is myself (Patrick), my wife, my friends who occasionally become production assistants on trips (Matt & Antonio), an old high school friend who is a stellar musician (Ryan) and a friend from my community policing days in Atlanta who does our motion graphics (Peter).\nPatreon gives us an opportunity to bring our friends, followers, and fans together to join in an exclusive community to make a greater impact than we can do on our own. We are stronger together. Our combined patrons get to watch as we push through the boundaries holding us back from telling the best and most compelling stories. In return, we get to offer our fans a look behind the curtain with various levels of involvement in what we do. It's a win-win situation and, if you've seen any of our previous work, you know that our projects are meaningful to people on both sides. We'd like you to be part of the team. And, honestly, we'd like to make bigger and better projects that actually have a financial backing.\nI believe that everyone has a story. Most people go to a public place and see faces. I see souls. In my work, both in the streets and on film, I strive to connect with those souls and explain to everyone else exactly what makes them unique. There are two parts to us - how we see ourselves and how everyone else sees us. A good film brings both views together.\nFolly Beach After Hurricane Irma\nAs a filmmaker, I'm known for pushing boundaries and exploring sincere moments of truth. My hope with using Patreon is that we'll turn this into a larger movement where we travel farther, get more in-depth, and capture the most real of human experiences to translate that onto the screen. Initially our creations will consist of short YouTube videos and funds raised along the way will go toward bigger projects that will have an even larger impact. Our work goes beyond the attention getting headlines and the drama churning narratives created in the sources we follow everyday. I'm interested in the truth. If you've followed our work, you've seen my style and I'm going to continue making important films and sharing truthful narratives in the best way I can \u2013 through the voices of those who have lived them.\nInterviewing an Officer from Oklahoma about Faith and Family.\nBeing passionate about something you believe in comes with significant personal costs. I am still a police officer and I work part-time so that I can keep making film and support my family. Documentary filmmaking isn't necessarily a financial investment. It's a moral one. However, films still require tons of time and money. So, while I'm watching my son grow and being the best husband and father that I can be, like any passionate creator, I'm also making sacrifices that I'd like to make less of over time. This is where funding has historically been a huge consideration. Over time, we'd like to grow our reach and abilities to keep turning out important films and that's where funding comes in big-time. As our projects become more time-consuming and take on more elements, most of our funds are going to:\nTravel/Fuel (Equipment luggage fees are huge).\nLodging (Economy - every time).\nSoftware Subscriptions (...so many subscriptions to make and edit a film).\nMedia Rights (especially just before release).\nMarketing (It never ends)\nWe employ very talented friends. We pay our Graphic Artist per project, our Musician per song, and our friends AKA Production Assistants per shift.\nLife (Life has to be counted here because when the car breaks down in Indianapolis and you need a $300 brake job to get back on the road and that was like 2-days worth of bare bones travel expenses, you can say that was really bad luck or you can say that's just life. By the way, thanks Lt. Bender from South District for arranging the pickup/drop-off).\nBecome part of this crazy movement that started as an answer to a question in 2013 and we will keep doing what we do best. Your part is immeasurable. Let's change the world together, connect the community, and well, keep our lights on. We're ready to hop on a plane and begin crafting the next important work. What do you say?\nGet complete access to our Patreon stream and take part in conversations about our projects. See what we're doing and get personal with us about where we go next.\nProject Sustainer\nYour name will be mentioned in the special thanks credits of our upcoming projects for supporting our work. You'll also get an invitation to any live chat that we do for our members and free shipping on any products listed in our store.\nIn our upcoming videos, there will be a special section in the credits labeled as \"Project Partners.\" You will be mentioned there for enabling us to continue our work. You'll also get a free personal copy of any video that we release shipped to you as a Project Partner. As a project partner, you'll also have the opportunity to view our major projects before we release them to the public.\nOnce we reach $3,500 per creation, we will begin producing a case-specific documentary series where each day of filming becomes part of the series. The viewer will get to watch and follow along as we are creating and learning new details about the case. This is a major project and requires major funding. We have several cases in mind.\nRecent posts by Officer Involved Project",

        "raw_content": "MSI Radeon RX 480 8GB down to \u00a3200\nGood performance is now even cheaper.\nAMD's current crop of graphics cards isn't exactly competing with the more powerful members of the Nvidia family, but they are certainly competitive in terms of price. 8GB of GDDR5 memory on a graphics card is not to be sniffed at, especially when you can get it, plus a decent clock speed, for under \u00a3200.\nNovatech currently has an MSI Radeon RX 480 Armor OC 8GB graphics card for \u00a3200, which is about \u00a320-\u00a330 cheaper than it normally is, plus you get free shipping. It's a pre-order price right now, but Novatech is getting 200 of them in next week on February 20, so there should be plenty to go around. There's also a 4GB version up for \u00a3170, but we'd recommend higher memory models in this day and age. 4GB can be fine for now, but it probably won't be future proof.\nAs for the card on offer, it's got a decent clock speed boost of 1291MHz versus the 1266MHz on the reference card and the memory speed has been boosted a bit to 8100MHz too. However, it's not the most powerful RX 480 on the market, but \u00a3200 is great value for the performance. Check out our review of the RX 480 if you want more information.",

        "raw_content": "Facebook Shows Off Solar-Powered Internet Drone\nFacebook has already completed its first test flight with the new aircraft in the U.K.\nFacebook is moving ahead with its plan to connect the next 5 billion people to the Web\u2014with a fleet of drones.\nAt today's f8 developer conference in San Francisco, Facebook CTO Mike Schroepfer unveiled the social network's first solar-powered drone (pictured), which can beam Internet access down to people from the sky.\nPowered by solar panels on its wings, the unmanned aircraft is utterly massive, with a wingspan greater than a Boeing 737. But it weighs less than a small car. Facebook has already completed its first test flight with the new aircraft in the U.K.\n\"The idea is to loiter across an area at a high altitude, for months at a time, and beam down Internet access,\" according to Schroepfer, who promised more information about the aircraft later this year.\n\"Aircraft like these will help connect the whole world because they can affordably serve the 10 percent of the world's population that live in remote communities without existing internet infrastructure,\" Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a Facebook post.\nA year ago, Facebook acquired the five-person team at U.K.-based Ascenta, which worked on early versions of Zephyr, the longest-flying solar-powered unmanned aircraft.\nMeanwhile, Facebook's day-two f8 keynote focused on the future of virtual reality.\nImagine being able to experience anything you want, with anyone in the world, wherever you are. In the future, this will be possible, thanks to virtual reality, says Michael Abrash, chief scientist of Oculus VR. He laid out a vision of what virtual reality can be in the future \u2014 and it's pretty cool.\nToday, virtual reality is good enough to trick your mind into thinking you're some place your not \u2014 but just barely. In the future, VR has the potential to \"create the whole range of the human experience,\" he said.\nYour hands will eventually be as capable in VR as they are in the real world. Visuals and audio will get better, and virtual worlds will seem real. You'll be able to see your own body when you look down and port the real world into VR, so you can, for instance, pick up your coffee cup or use your computer and mouse without taking off your headset.\nIt will be a long time before this happens \u2014 but the shift is \"well underway,\" Abrash said.\nIf history is any indication, Abrash is wrong. For decades, people have been trying to make VR happen and, for the most part, they have failed. Abrash acknowledged that developing VR tech is hard, and requires a long-term commitment, but said Facebook's $2 billion acquisition of Oculus will help propel the technology.\n\"A lot of powerful forces are coming together now to make VR happen,\" he said.\nBut this begs the question \u2014 why does Facebook even care about virtual reality? Schroepfer says the answer comes back to Facebook's mission \u2014 it has the potential to bring people together in new ways.\nFor instance, instead of just posting a video on Facebook of your child's first steps, you'd be able to virtually transport your friends into that moment. Loved ones living far away would have a sense that they were truly there, experiencing that milestone in person.\n\"That's our goal over the next 10 years,\" he said.\nGoogle to Improve Chrome Scrolling (Eventually)\nCrossy Road Gets First-Person Homage",

        "raw_content": "Half of employees think their boss does not take appraisals seriously\nBy Gareth Vorster on 3 Dec 2007 in HR practice, Assessment, Latest News\nNearly half of UK employees believe that their boss is not honest with them in an appraisal, new research has found.\nA survey of nearly 3,000 people commissioned by Investors in People found that a third of those workers who received an appraisal feel they are a time-wasting exercise.\nAlmost a quarter of that pool of respondents believe their manager sees their annual review purely as a \u2018tick-box\u2019 exercise, while 19% accuse their manager of only thinking about the appraisal once they are in the room.\nJust a fifth of respondents believe their manager will always act on what is discussed, whereas 20% say their boss rarely or never bothers to follow-up on their concerns.\nSimon Jones, acting chief executive at Investors in People UK, said it was a concern that some managers are failing to give full and frank feedback. \u201cAnnual reviews can be hugely beneficial for employer and employee, identifying areas for development as well as ensuring the employee feels motivated, engaged and part of the organisation\u2019s success.\n\u201cAppraisals should always cover past performance and objectives, but equally important are discussions of future targets and opportunities. It\u2019s a great chance for managers to make sure their employees feel challenged and valued for the year ahead, rather than unmotivated and without guidance,\u201d he said.\nThe survey found that only 54% of people working in organisations with fewer than 250 employees have a regular annual review. In contrast, 81% of people employed at organisations with more than 250 employees receive annual reviews.",

        "raw_content": "Ladakh (\"land of high passes\") is a region in Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir that currently extends from the Kunlun mountain range to the main Great Himalayas to the south, inhabited by people of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan descent. It is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Jammu and Kashmir and its culture and history are closely related to that of Tibet.\nIn the past Ladakh gained importance from its strategic location at the crossroads of important trade routes, but since the Chinese authorities closed the borders with Tibet and Central Asia in the 1960s, international trade has dwindled except for tourism. Since 1974, the Government of India has successfully encouraged tourism in Ladakh. Since Ladakh is a part of strategically important Jammu and Kashmir, the Indian military maintains a strong presence in the region.\nThe largest town in Ladakh is Leh, followed by Kargil. Almost half of Ladakhis are Shia Muslims and the rest are mostly Tibetan Buddhists. Some Ladakhi activists have in recent times called for Ladakh to be constituted as a union territory because of perceived unfair treatment by Kashmir and Ladakh's cultural differences with predominantly Muslim Kashmir.",

        "raw_content": "http://www.rdpr.co.uk/services/property-pr/\nlisa.morton@rdpr.co.uk\nWhy is a social media presence important for business?\nThe social media phenomenon has rapidly turned into a key part of the modern marketing mix. A flexible presence on not only Facebook and Twitter but other platforms, is a must for any business. What better proof than 1.04 billion daily active users on Facebook and over 1.3 billion registered accounts on Twitter? For companies looking for greater exposure it is a strategic miss if they lack social profiles in platforms such as LinkedIn, Pinterest and Reddit.\nThe 2015 Social Media Marketing Industry Report identifies the role of social media in todays business, and why a businesses presence is so important:\n96% of businesses are using social media to market themselves; with 92% of them saying that it was important to their business.\nWith as little as 6 hours per week, the vast majority of marketers (91%) indicated their social media efforts increased exposure for their businesses.\nA significant 81% of participants found that increased traffic occurred with as little as 6 hours per week invested in social media marketing.\nFacebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, YouTube, Pinterest and Instagram are the top seven platforms used by marketers, with Facebook leading the pack\nA strong media presence is essential for showcasing your business and is a proven effective way of building upon your company\u2019s reputation. By having a regular brand presence, for over a year, on social platforms, 64% of businesses claimed it had been influential in building a \u2018fan\u2019 base.\nBy defining your business objectives, you are able to successfully manage your image on multiple different networks. Social media can act as a relationship-building opportunity that is virtually limitless in size and from a marketing perspective it is the best chance to create a community of customers.\nIn order for your presence to be felt among the millions of other sites on Google, your social influence is essential. Massive exposure can be gained through the available worldwide access to Social Media and the consequent vast number of users. It offers the opportunity for unrestricted marketing within the digital marketplace and thus, removes the cost of traditional forms. Not only are you building new networks through this platform but your presence will allow you image to be widely distributed.\nThe customer service side of social media is essential for kick-starting your sale results. Through these channels you are able to respond personally to specific requirements or questions, and the prompt timeframe of social media can often result in prospects turning into customers. Not only can it work towards an increase in sales, but it can help toward transforming negative customer\u2019s experiences into a positive outcome for your business.\nSocial media helps you easily discover your customers\u2019 preferences so that you can: focus on meeting their special needs and expectations, gain proficiency in that exact niche, excel your product list, and research your competitors.\nIf you are keen to increase the traffic to your website then social media is a perfect generator for high volumes. The more you participate in the social-sphere, the more traffic will be directed your way \u2013 as search engines such as Google, love social media giants. They often allow live tweets to be available in their engine, alongside Facebook business profiles. Businesses can easily use this to their advantage by using trigger words and the all-important \u2018#\u2019 on Twitter.\nMarketing costs can be hugely cut through social media marketing and makes it easy to brand your business in an affordable way. As this form of marketing continues to grow, it has marginalised more traditional approaches, and therefore allows your advertising to grow exponentially without a huge amount of money and time. It is imperative for businesses to create a buzz on digital platforms and those taking full advantage of this are reaping the rewards.\nNow that you\u2019ve been introduced to the basics, it\u2019s time to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty.

The suit seeks to recover those losses, among other things.\nIn addition to NovaStar, the complaint also names NovaStar\u2019s chairman and CEO and members of its Retirement Committee as defendants.\n\u00ab Federal Appellate Panel Clears Two More Cash Balance Plans",

        "raw_content": "LinkedIn says 27 per cent of users come from mobile, as it launches radically redesigned iPhone and Android apps\nLinkedIn has updated its iPhone and Android applications, adding a cleaner, friendly interface, simplifying the process of finding the people you most want to connect with.\nThe company told Pocket-lint that over 27 per cent of its users engage with LinkedIn through mobile, a rise of 12 per cent year-on-year, so has focused on greatly enhancing its existing smartphone apps, even though the last versions were much lauded and awarded.\nThe updated app, which is launched simultaneously across devices, has an improved design, with more emphasis on pictures. And new animations have been added to seemingly small tasks, such as \u201cliking\u201d a post or swiping in a colleague or friend\u2019s card. They may not be significant on their own, but add up to provide a more intuitive experience.\n\u201cFor the last three months, we\u2019ve had the entire company using the app,\u201d explained Tomer Cohen, product lead, Mobile, LinkedIn. \u201cWe got over 10,000 pieces of feedback, and we\u2019ve made sure that we gave high priority to those tiny little details.\u201d\nThe update is not just aesthetic, however. There are practical changes too, that improve the way users can get to the information on LinkedIn as quickly and efficiently as possible.\n\u201cWe focused on three main areas,\u201d we were told by Cohen. \u201cThe first is a brand new visual design. The second is a complete makeover of the central stage, the professional stream.\n\u201cWhen people used the previous app, they were always one or two steps away from where they wanted to get to. So we\u2019ve pulled that information to the main screen and made it very visible and engaging.\n\u201cThe third area is personal navigation. Our mobile user base is using LinkedIn in many shapes and forms. We have news consumers. We have groups users and job seekers. And it was important for us to provide all of those experiences to our mobile users while having a very intuitive and simple navigation through the app.\n\u201cWe actually built a new algorithm to study what the user is doing and have their favourites as part of the navigation,\u201d he added.\nThe new navigation works on a side screen which you can swipe on and off. It has easy-to-understand pre-determined shortcuts that take you exactly where you want to go. Alternatively, you now have the ability to add new shortcuts to your menu, in order to personalise it exactly as you want. Your own information is one tap away from this bar, as are messages and other details.\nThe news stream also has new functionality. As well as feature a new animation with the \u201clike\u201d feature, it features a like and comment feature under each post in the stream. It\u2019s much easier to engage with others than ever before.\n\u201cOur goal was to design the best personalised experience for our everyday globalised professional,\u201d said Cohen. \u201cAs you can imagine, we are super excited to get this app to our members.\u201d\nYou can download the new and improved LinkedIn application from iTunes and Google Play now.",

        "raw_content": "ASPCA Funds Pet Microchip Scanners for 86 NYPD Precincts and Housing Police Service Areas\nSergeant Kathleen Russell of the NYPD Patrol Services Bureau demonstrates how to use a microchip scanner on adoptable dog, Orson, during an all-day Animal Cruelty Investigations Seminar at the NYPD Police Academy on Saturday, February 10, 2018. (Photo: ASPCA)\nThe ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) announced today that it is working with the New York City Police Department (NYPD) to provide pet microchip scanners to every precinct in the city \u2013 86 in all \u2013 including Housing Police Service Areas (PSAs). The effort is part of the ASPCA-NYPD Partnership, which is now entering its fifth year.\nMicrochips are subcutaneous identification implants, roughly the size of a grain of rice, used most commonly in cats and dogs. Each implant contains a unique serial number which can be read by a scanner and matched to a database containing the owner\u2019s contact information.\nThe scanners can help NYPD officers responding to suspected animal cruelty cases quickly obtain crucial animal ownership information, facilitating their investigations. For example, in the 2016 case of a dog in a suitcase found in a dumpster, information from a microchip pointed the NYPD Animal Cruelty Investigation Squad in the direction of those responsible, leading to a successful outcome in the case.\n\u201cEffectively fighting animal cruelty means equipping law enforcement officers with practical tools as well as comprehensive training, and these scanners will certainly accelerate the process of finding owners and clearing cases,\u201d said Matt Bershadker, president and CEO of the ASPCA. \u201cAs we enter the fifth year of our partnership with the NYPD, I\u2019m inspired by their enthusiasm to use every means available to stop cruelty, rescue victimized animals, and bring animal abusers to justice.\u201d\nOn Saturday, February 10, more than 250 officers attended a microchip scanner demonstration during a seminar held at the Police Academy in College Point, Queens. The seminars, held periodically throughout the year and conducted by ASPCA and NYPD experts, provide instruction on a variety of topics including NYPD animal cruelty investigation procedures, animal cruelty laws, blood sports, forensic investigations, and the ASPCA Community Engagement program. Since the beginning of the ASPCA/NYPD partnership in 2014, more than 2,500 officers have completed an animal cruelty investigations seminar.\n\u201cIn collaboration with Captain Mark Gaudioso from the NYPD Patrol Services Bureau, it became apparent that we could assist the animal cruelty victims with the tool of pet microchip scanners at every Precinct and Police Service Area in New York City,\u201d said Deputy Chief Luongo, Commanding Officer of the Special Investigation Division, NYPD. \u201cWith the animal cruelty training and widespread use of these devices we will be able to accelerate the process of finding owners to assist in our investigations.\u201d\nThe citywide ASPCA/NYPD partnership originally launched in January 2014, and since then has treated more than 2,500 animals. Through this collaboration, the NYPD takes the lead role in responding to all animal cruelty complaints in the five boroughs, and the ASPCA provides direct care for the victims, as well as training, veterinary forensic, and legal support for the NYPD.\nTo report animal cruelty in any of the five boroughs, the public is encouraged to call 311 or submit an online complaint. For crimes in progress, individuals should call 911.\nRead more about NYPD New York ASPCA Animal Cruelty The Northeast",

When one enters Hall C of Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre, they would not miss the huge door way glowing with the printed images of planeswalkers, the main characters in the lore of Magic the Gathering, with the mysterious powers to travel through different worlds in the multiverse.\nAs a player of Magic the Gathering, you are one of these Planeswalkers that commune with the land for mana, or magical powers, that allow you to cast spells and summon creatures to do your bidding.\nThe Magic the Gathering booth that was set up at STGCC this year is targeted at beginners to the game. Armed with free starter packs made up of 30 cards (a typical deck used in a game of Magic has 60 cards in it), you get a free one to one lesson with one of the many volunteers on how to play the game. For those who of us who do not have time to play the game in real life, it is also possible to download the mobile game Magic: Duels from the Apple store or the Google Playstore. Do note that for those who have a bit more experience, the pacing of the online version may be a bit too slow for you.\nAs somebody who have been crazily involved in playing the game for the past year, I was hoping that a card for the next set, Battle for Zendikar, will be spoiled at STGCC. In the meanwhile, I will continue to wait patiently at my local games store, building decks and slinging spells.\nPhotos by Ken Koh & Kenneth Wong\nTags Booth event Magic The Gathering Singapore Toy Game & Comic Convention STGCC STGCC 2015",

Additionally, central nervous system-related diseases including stress, depression, and anxiety can also lead to xerostomia.\nMoreover, trauma to the head and neck area can alter the nerve stimuli to the mouth and impair the function to the salivary glands. Therefore, the rising incidence of the health conditions or diseases that are high-risk factors for xerostomia is expected to continue to support the growth of the global xerostomia therapeutics market during the forecast period.\nThe increasing number of people with xerostomia is directly related to the growing geriatric population. The number of old people worldwide has been growing significantly over the years. This expected to contribute significantly to the market as this high growth in the older population helps to drive the sales of various therapeutics markets during our forecast period.\nRegulatory bodies have framed stringent regulations to grant marketing approval for therapeutics that are being newly developed for the treatment of xerostomia. Many applications rejected either due to the inadequate performance of the drug or because the information on the drug, which is submitted is unsatisfactory. Such stringent government regulations can lead to a delay in drug in drug approval which in turn hampers the growth of the market.\nThe xerostomia therapeutics market is fragmented due to presence of many vendors in the market. The pharmaceutical companies are forming strategic collaborations which will enhance the R&D activities for new drugs for the management xerostomia.\nFor more information about this report visit https://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x48hzf/global_xerostomia?w=5\nFeb 15, 2019, 09:30 ET Truck Refrigeration Unit Market - Global Forecast to 2025 with...\nFeb 15, 2019, 09:15 ET Global Wearable Robots (Exoskeletons) Market 2019-2025:...",

It\u2019s critical that universities work hand in hand with industry to ensure we capitalise on the opportunities \u2014 and address the challenges \u2014 this presents,\u201d said UTS Vice-Chancellor Professor Attila Brungs. \u201cFacilities like Tech Lab will allow us to do that.\u201d\nThe Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology (FEIT) at UTS, Professor Ian Burnett, said UTS is already known for its engagement and partnership with industry \u201cbut Tech Lab adds new, state-of-the-art facilities that will attract companies and researchers from around the globe to work on new projects in engineering and digital transformation\u201d.\n\u201cUTS Tech Lab is a unique research facility in Australia, where academics and researchers from diverse fields will work in tandem with industry and government to develop innovative solutions for the world of tomorrow, taking new technologies from early readiness to commercial viability,\u201d he said.\nTech Lab will cater to a wide range of companies, from big to small, including working with start-ups. \u201cIt will continue to build on Australia\u2019s research strengths and bring industry and academia together to deliver the most technologically advanced products and services. This will provide impact for our partners and jobs for our students and the wider community,\u201d he continued.\nTech Lab will offer R&D projects, consultancy, contract work and short courses. It is equipped with state-of-the-art capabilities that include, among other things:\nan electromagnetic informatics and antenna chamber\ndata analytics, networking and communications\nphotonics and optical sensing\nfull-scale structural dynamics facilities\na geotechnical lab\nacoustics laboratories, including anechoic chambers\nan electrical power and energy lab\na multimedia lab for computational intelligence and brain computer interface.\nUTS Tech Lab has already welcomed organisations such as Sydney Water, which will work with the facility in robotics and smart sensing in pipelines, as well as Nokia, which will run training courses out of the facility. Tech Lab is also in discussion with many other companies interested in working with UTS in the new facility, especially in areas such as smart cities, Internet of Things (IoT) and advanced manufacturing.\nThe NSW Government recently announced a new technology and innovation precinct in the corridor from the Central Station area in Sydney city, where UTS is based, through to Eveleigh, a suburb just north of Botany. This corridor is home to Australia\u2019s largest cluster of start-up firms.",

Formerly the largest and most important tribe in the Southeast, they occupied mountain areas of North and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee. The Cherokee language belongs to the Iroquoian branch of the Hokan-Siouan linguistic stock (see Native American languages).\nBy the 16th cent., the Cherokee had a settled, advanced culture based on agriculture. Hernando De Soto visited them in 1540. They were frequently at war with the Iroquois tribes of New York but proved generally valuable allies for the British against the French. Soon after 1750, smallpox destroyed almost half the tribe. Formerly friendly with Carolina settlers, they were provoked into war with the colonists in 1760, and two years followed before the Cherokee sued for peace.\nIn 1820 they adopted a republican form of government, and in 1827 they established themselves as the Cherokee Nation, with their capital at New Echota, in N Georgia, under a constitution providing for an elective principal chief, a senate, and a house of representatives. Literacy was aided by the invention of a Cherokee syllabic alphabet by Sequoyah. Its 85 characters, representing the syllables of the Cherokee language, permitted the keeping of tribal records and, later, the publication of newspapers.\nThe 1830s discovery of gold in Cherokee territory resulted in pressure by whites to obtain their lands. A treaty was extracted from a small part of the tribe, binding the whole people to move beyond the Mississippi River within three years. Although the Cherokee overwhelmingly repudiated this document and the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the nation's autonomy, the state of Georgia secured an order for their removal, which was accomplished by military force. President Andrew Jackson refused to intervene, and in 1838 the tribe was deported to the Indian Territory (now in Oklahoma). Thousands died on the march, known as the \"Trail of Tears,\" or from subsequent hardships. Their leader at this time and until 1866 was Chief John Ross.\nThe Cherokee made their new capital at Tahlequah (Okla.), instituted a public school system, published newspapers, and were the most important of the Five Civilized Tribes. In the U.S. Civil War their allegiance was divided between North and South, with large contingents serving on each side. By a new treaty at the close of the war they freed their black slaves and admitted them to tribal citizenship, but in 2007 the Cherokee voted to strip the descendants of those slaves of their citizenship; the change took effect in 2011 after it was upheld by the tribal supreme court.\nIn 1891 the Cherokee sold their western territorial extension, known as the Cherokee Strip; in 1902 they approved the division of the reservation into allotments; and in 1906 tribal sovereignty was abolished. Tribal entities still exist, however, and many Oklahoma Cherokee live on tribal landholdings. With a 1990 population of about 370,000, the Cherokee, while scattered, are by far the largest Native American group in the United States. Close to 6,000, the descendants of the few who successfully resisted removal or returned after the removal, live on the Eastern Cherokee (Qualla) reservation in W North Carolina.\nSee M. L.

Below are the results of this poll. As you'll notice, we still didn't get enough input from a couple of categories. The salaries are for the position of Production Director, but this position's job description varies greatly from station to station and market to market. Some Production Directors have an airshift while others don't. Some handle the Continuity Director's duties or write copy while others don't. Some have assistants drawing from the budget for production while others do the job alone. These differences will vary the salaries in similar markets consider-ably. Therefore, the ranges indicated below may swing fairly wide. The averages will offer a more accurate indication of which direction from the middle this swing takes place. To the right of the Average Salary is the percentage of change from last year's poll. The average increase overall was ten percent.\nThanks to everyone who participated in this poll. We hope it will assist you in future negotiations, either at your present job or at your next one. Additional copies of this poll are available upon request.",

        "raw_content": "Personally, the timing on this piece couldn\u2019t have been more perfect. On Friday, my partner was in a car accident. His vehicle was hit head-on by an oncoming car in a busy intersection. The accident wasn\u2019t his fault and he wasn\u2019t hurt, but his vehicle was written off. As a result, we spent the weekend exploring new vehicle options. Should we lease or buy new? In the end, we decided to buy new. Here\u2019s what we learned this weekend.\nTalk about your personal and family needs. Your car should suit your lifestyle, as well as your driving schedule. Do you drive a lot? Do you need extra storage space? Come up with a list of features that you feel are must-haves. This will make car shopping a lot easier. If more than one of you will be driving the vehicle, discussing your needs beforehand will keep you both on the same page.\nCheck consumer reports. Once you\u2019ve decided on the type of vehicle you want, take a look at online consumer reports. Cars are rated on features such as how well they handle, fuel economy, safety features and comfort.\nDetermine your budget. You need to decide whether or not you will need financing to purchase your new vehicle \u2013 most people need financial assistance of some sort. You will also need to consider how much you can apply to the sticker price as a down payment. Keep in mind, the larger the down payment the lower your monthly payment. Contact your financial institution about financing. Your interest rate will depend solely on your credit score. If your credit score is good, your interest rate will be lower. If your score is bad, your interest rate will be higher. Shop around to find the best rate. If you\u2019re fairly confident about your credit score, you can wait until the signing of the contract to contact your financial institution.\nVisit dealerships. Now that you know what you are looking for and you\u2019ve done the research and determined your budget, you\u2019re ready to go shopping. Compare prices carefully from dealership to dealership. Ask if the ticket price is the best they can do. Often, dealerships have some leeway on the price and will lower it if they think you\u2019re serious about purchasing the vehicle.\nTake the car for a test drive. You should always test drive potential cars. You want to make sure that it handles well and responds to your driving style.\nSigning the contract. At this point, you will be required to put a down payment on the vehicle. Again, the more money you put down on your purchase, the lower your monthly payments will be. Read the contract carefully before you sign it. Make sure that the contract includes a \u201cbuyer\u2019s right to cancel\u201d \u2013 a provision which is not required by law. This will allow you to return the vehicle should you change your mind for some reason.\nGet auto insurance. According to Federal law, all car owners must have car insurance. You can get car insurance from most financial institutions, as well as insurance companies. Again, shop around for the best rate. Car insurance rates can vary wildly. Do the legwork now and save later.\nStore car information somewhere safe. This isn\u2019t really a part of the process, but it is important. Should you want to sell your vehicle in the future, you will need this information. Store receipts, contracts and your car\u2019s VIN number (vehicle ID number) somewhere safe.\nA Note on Leasing\nIf you feel that you aren\u2019t ready for the financial responsibility of buying a car, leasing may be a better option for you. There are some restrictions with leasing, including how much you can drive and imposed maintenance costs. In Canada, there are two types of leases you can purchase. An operating lease will allow you to purchase the vehicle at the end of the term, but it can be a very expensive option. Since the term is usually longer, a capital lease will allow you to purchase the vehicle at the end of the term for a lesser amount.\nAgain, interest rates on leases will vary and are dependent on your credit score. Shop around for the best rate. Make sure to read the contract carefully before you hand over a down payment. It could contain stipulations and exceptions that don\u2019t work for you.\nWriter for Rate Supermarket.ca\nTags: credit score, Lease or buy, new car, new vehicle options.

        "raw_content": "Celebrating Cyber Monday\nAmerican Thanksgiving has given birth to a most unusual tradition. No, I\u2019m not talking about watching the Macy\u2019s parade or nodding off on the couch to a football game. It\u2019s tuning in to the news the next day to catch images of crazed shoppers who\u2019ve spent hours lined up in the cold, trampling over each other to get their hands on steeply discounted products.\nThankfully, around 2005, a new \u2013 much more civilized \u2013 shopping tradition emerged: Cyber Monday.\nOnline shopping originated in the early 1990s with the launch of such famous \u2013 and still popular sites \u2013 as Amazon.com and eBay. But it took people a while to get used to the concept of buying things based on an on-screen image and paying for them via mysterious means like PayPal. In fact, it took about a decade for people to grow comfortable with online shopping \u2013 but it took off like wild fire once it caught on.\nIt wasn\u2019t long before retailers realized the opportunity for an online component to the holiday shopping frenzy \u2013 and promptly created an event to piggy-back on the hype surrounding post-Thanksgiving spending. And so Cyber Monday was born, taking place on the Monday immediately after Black Friday (Monday, November 26, 2012).\nCanadians Are Taking Part\nAnd it\u2019s not just limited to U.S. online shoppers. Canadians have fully embraced online shopping, with more than half of us (56 per cent), planning to shop online this holiday season, according to a recent survey by American Express Canada. Here\u2019s why: \u201cTime is always precious, but at the holidays it\u2019s at even more of a premium,\u201d says Colin Temple, Vice President and General Manager of Merchant Services at American Express Canada. \u201cBetween holiday entertaining and events, visiting with family and friends, and winter travel, there never seems to be enough time to do everything you\u2019d like.\u201d He adds that the allure is also due to the ease of finding merchandise. \u201cWhat we\u2019re seeing is that Canadians are embracing online shopping, not only because of the time it saves them from standing in line, but because it\u2019s easy to browse gift options and then have purchases delivered right to where they need to go.\u201d\nVisit the Online Shopping Mall\nSo, where do you need to go to find Cyber Monday deals? The short answer: anywhere you can find online Black Friday deals, you\u2019ll find the Cyber Monday equivalent.\nWhen looking for specific stores, the first place to start is the home of the sale \u2013 the U.S. of A. Many big-name U.S. retailers will ship their deals across the border, including J.Crew, Nordstrom, and the Old Navy/Gap/Banana Republic triumvirate. Closer to home, many Canadian retailers like Chapters, the Bay, and SoftMoc have also offered Cyber Monday deals in years past. FutureShop.ca will offer a sneak peak of some of their Cyber Monday deals between 8 and 9 p.m. (EST) on Sunday night, November 25. Take note of the case-sensitive promo code: FSCyberMonday. And at least one of the early adopters has taken it a step further, echoing Boxing Week sales. Amazon.ca, has a week-long Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale ongoing.\nCredit? Check.\nWant to enhance your online shopping experience? Make your purchases using an MBNA Smart Cash MasterCard and earn cash back on every dollar you spend. The no-fee card offers five per cent cash back on gas and grocery purchases for the first six months (two per cent after that), and one per cent on all other purchases. Plus, if you apply by December 15th, you can get a $100 gift card for Toys R Us, Future Shop, Amazon.ca, or Boston Pizza.\nTags: Cyber Monday, cyber monday 2012, cyber monday deals, cyber monday in canada, cyber monday sales, what is cyber monday.

        "title": "Why You Hate the Sound of Your Own Voice | Reader's Digest",
        "raw_content": "You\u2019re watching a video of your family holiday when you suddenly cringe. Is that really what your voice sounds like? If you can\u2019t stand the sound of your own voice, you\u2019re not alone. But don\u2019t worry \u2013 you\u2019re probably the only one who gets annoyed by its sound. There\u2019s a scientific reason you hate your own voice so much.\nWhen we hear an outside sound, like someone else\u2019s voice, the sound travels through your ear, into the canal, and to the eardrum, says Aaron Johnson, PhD, a US speech\u2013language pathologist and assistant professor in the otolaryngology department at NYU Langone\u2019s Voice Center. Vibrations from the eardrum travel to the inner ear, where fluid makes little hair cells move. Those movements create electric energy that gets sent up to the brain, which translates it into sound.\nThat exact same thing happens when you hear the sounds that come out of your own mouth \u2013 but something else happens on top of it. \u201cAs we\u2019re talking, sound waves travel not only outside our body, but there is energy bouncing around in our mouth and throat and through our head, directly to the inner portion of our ear,\u201d says Dr Johnson. Other people can\u2019t sense the vibrations in your mouth, so you hear your own voice differently than they do.\nWhen listening to your own voice on a recording, you aren\u2019t getting those extra vibrations in your mouth and throat, so you\u2019ll hear what everyone else does. Because it\u2019s as unique as your fingerprints, your voice \u2013 or what you think it sounds like \u2013 is part of your self-image. A sudden change can be off-putting. \u201cWe think of ourselves as sounding a certain way, and then we hear ourselves on recording and it\u2019s completely different,\u201d says Dr Johnson. \u201cIt\u2019s unexpected. It\u2019s like, \u2018That\u2019s not me\u2019.\u201d\nAnd there\u2019s a reason people are rarely pleasantly surprised by this new sound. The vibrations coming directly from your head are lower, so the sound is richer. \u201cPeople are surprised they sound\u2026 irritating because it sounds brighter and sounds higher than what they\u2019re used to,\u201d says Dr Johnson. So when you suddenly sound more Janice from Friends than Morgan Freeman, you might get freaked out.\nTo get over your hatred of your own voice, try listening to recordings of it, recommends Dr Johnson. \u201cThe more you get used to that, the more you acknowledge \u2018That really is my sound\u2019,\u201d he says.\nIf you think your voice is truly annoying (and not just to you), you aren\u2019t stuck with that sound forever. Singing lessons, public speaking classes and vocal training can help you learn how to change your voice\u2019s sound, says Dr Johnson.\n\u201cWe sometimes see people who are just not using their voice efficiently,\u201d he says. \u201cYou can find different ways to use your voice to produce different qualities using breath and trying not to use your throat very much.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Deskilling in the Age of Digital Amnesia\nIs the convenience offered by technology making us lazy, forgetful and unable to solve basic problems?\nBy Helen O'Neill\nHow many of the phone numbers of your nearest and dearest can you remember? How about birthdays or postal addresses?\nIf you suspect it is fewer than you have ever been able to before, there is a very good chance you are right. It\u2019s also possible you are exhibiting a phenomenon known as \u2018digital amnesia\u2019 \u2013 a phrase coined by cyber-security group Kaspersky Lab to describe forgetting information that you trust a digital device to store and remember for you.\nLast year Kaspersky Lab released an eye-opening study called \u2018The Rise and Impact of Digital Amnesia\u2019, which attempted to assess how dependent we have become on our handy, hand-held, high-tech tools.\n\u201cDigital technologies are not just transforming the way we live and work; they are changing the way we think, learn, behave \u2013 and remember,\u201d stated the study, which found that more than half of the 6000 European adults surveyed could remember the phone number of the house they had lived in when they were ten years old but could not recall the phone numbers of their current workplaces.\nOne in three of those questioned admitted that they had outsourced their memories to such an extent that they could not even make a telephone call to their partners without looking the number up first. Nine out of ten of those surveyed revealed they were unable \u2013 from memory alone \u2013 to phone their children\u2019s school.\nAnd when faced with a question, 36 per cent said they would leap online to locate an answer before they even bothered trying to remember whether they already knew the answer. Almost one in four reported that as soon as they had used a fact discovered online they would almost immediately forget it.\nDigital amnesia appeared to cut across sex and age barriers, although some of the findings suggested slightly higher numbers among older age groups. A high proportion of \u2018digital natives\u2019 appeared to be in denial, given that 40 per cent of those aged 16 to 24 years said that losing the data on their digital devices would cause them immense distress. Even so, they had not bothered backing up the data anywhere else.\nDr Maria Wimber, a lecturer at the University of Birmingham\u2019s School of Psychology, suggested the results were somewhat double-edged. On the one hand \u201cthere is an argument to be made that looking up information online, instead of trying to recall it ourselves, makes us shallower thinkers,\u201d Wimber told Kaspersky Lab.\nThat said, given that our brains \u201cclearly have a capacity limit \u2026 one could argue that smartphones can enhance our memory, because they store information externally, and thereby free up capacity in long-term memory,\u201d she said. \u201cForgetting is in no way a bad thing.\u201d\nAcross the world, scientists are currently trying to work out how our apparent addiction to high-tech gadgets is affecting us by studying everything from what technology is doing to cognitive development in the young to whether adults have started using their smartphones instead of thinking or attempting to puzzle things out (a question to which the answer, so far, seems to be \u201cyes\u201d).\nBob Cooper, a survival expert from Western Australia who has taught wilderness skills for over three decades, believes that people are becoming so dangerously dependent on technology \u2013 specifically the use of GPS systems \u2013 that they are not only losing what he calls \u2018bush-craft skills\u2019 but \u2018common sense skills\u2019 as well.\nTravellers have no problem using electronic map-readers to find isolated locations, Cooper told ABC News, \u201cbut when the thing stops working, people don\u2019t know what to do.\u201d\nSome technology writers agree with him, arguing that advances in computing, mechanisation and artificial intelligence are not only making us stupid but potentially miserable as well. Yet in a world where 65 per cent of Americans suspect that most human jobs will be done by robots within 50 years, and where driverless cars appear to be just around the corner, not everybody is quite as concerned.\nVirtual reality pioneer Mark Pesce, who is a broadcaster, writer, researcher and futurist, described the enormity of the changes taking place as \u201ca quantum jump in human capability for everyone\u201d in an interview for Australian Popular Science in 2012, during which he stated that the technological advances underway are as \u201cimportant as the emergence of speech 70,000 years ago\u201d.\nCognitive computers\nQuizzed about deskilling and the impact of handing over basic jobs to machines, be they manual labour or problem-solving tasks such as map reading, Pesce notes that \u201cwe\u2019re actually doing the opposite \u2013 handing over higher-level cognitive functions.\u201d\nTo prove his point Pesce mentions two ground-breaking IBM computing systems \u2013 Watson for Oncology, which is being used by US and Canadian cancer organisations to sift through mountains of medical data to help doctors choose optimum treatments for individual patients, and IBM\u2019s Watson-powered cognitive computer Ross, which specialises in powering through legal research and is capable of learning from its work.\nThese advancements in technology are extending robotics beyond simple routine-based tasks to dynamic problem solving.\nHowever, Pesce points out, the \u201clower-level, more physical functions are disappearing at a slower rate because the physical world is harder for a robot to manage than the purely intellectual world of the professions.\u201d\nRebirth of handmade\nPerhaps ironically, as our rush towards all things high-tech has accelerated, so has a resurgence of interest in the homemade \u2013 as seen in the increased emergence of everything from cheese- and pickle-making weekend workshops to quilting clubs allowing people to learn \u2018new\u2019 artisan or practical skills. In other words, a form of \u2018reskilling\u2019.\nThis new wave of arts and crafts has seen interest in knitting and crocheting boom since the beginning of the 21st century, with the Craft Yarn Council (CYC) of America reporting that a third of all US women aged 25 to 35 do either one or the other.\nGlobally the appetite for artisan goods has exploded as skills that used to be semi-forgotten, and at best thought of as twee, have become seriously cool.\nIn 2015 alone, around 1.6 million sellers sold more than US$2.39 billion of merchandise to 25 million buyers on Etsy.com, the highest-profile online marketplace for handmade items and vintage objects. The amount is so high that Professor Susan Luckman, an expert in craft from University of South Australia\u2019s Hawke EU Centre, argues \u201ca making renaissance is underway.\u201d\nLuckman\u2019s latest book, Craft and the Creative Economy, examines the area\u2019s exponential growth \u2013 the new appetite for artisanal goods and the rise of \u2018mumpreneurs\u2019, women who set up businesses while also caring for their young children.\n\u201cCraft, the handmade and making are currently everywhere,\u201d she observes, describing Etsy.com (which at its launch in 2005 was a pioneer) as the tip of an iceberg when it comes to online trading websites today.\nAccording to Luckman, the high-tech is driving the low-tech. With such a proliferation of websites and online shops, commerce is easy and \u201cthe internet means there is much more information about making things \u2026 it empowers people to give it a go.\u201d\nHandmade items appeal because they are \u201cimbued with touch\u201d, offering \u201ca sense of the \u2018authentic\u2019 in an \u2018inauthentic\u2019 world,\u201d Luckman observes. She suspects that people crave them for a series of reasons, including nostalgia, yearning for a sense of comfort, a search for the unique and, particularly for those with ethical concerns about how things are made, reassurance in knowing who has created what they are buying.\nMuch mass production takes place overseas so \u201cthis generation \u2026 is missing that connection to making,\u201d she says, adding that highly skilled work such as bespoke shoe-making continues to disappear from Australia\u2019s shores.\n\u201cThis renaissance is going on but ironically at a time when we are threatened with the loss of lots of skills,\u201d says Luckman, describing the experience of creating, and being able to say, \u201cI made that \u2013 I did that\u201d as enormously satisfying.\nWhile academics are speculating over whether there is a link between the trends of digital deskilling and the craze for craft \u2013 and if so whether it has anything to do with our anxieties over the speed with which modern life is changing \u2013 one thing is clear: the future is what we make it.\nSo while you\u2019re mulling over that why not jump online, download a pattern, and start knitting yourself a cosy little case for your shiny smartphone?",

        "raw_content": "by Liya Swift \u00b7 Published December 7, 2015 \u00b7 Updated February 13, 2019\nProducer, engineer and songwriter Josquin des Pres, has had a lengthy and illustrious career stateside. He\u2019s worked with Bernie Taupin, Elton John\u2019s lyricist, and produced for Jack Johnson, Tech N9ne, The Gipsy Kings, Slightly Stoopid, Carly Smithson, and Ricky Skaggs. He\u2019s also composed for more than 40 TV shows and films. Prior to that, Josquin was an in-demand bass player, playing with some of the biggest acts in France, from which he hails, originally.\nSometimes musicians find making the move from creating music for themselves to producing music for other artists quite difficult. This wasn\u2019t the case with Josquin. For him, the transition was exceedingly easy. \u201cI met Bernie Taupin through a mutual friend and started writing songs with him in the late \u201880\u2019s, and landed a deal with Warner/Chappell Publishing. All that came about at the same time [that], I had my own little studio to record my own songs, and so I bought more and more equipment and developed that even more.\u201d Based in Los Angeles for a number of years, Josquin then made the move to San Diego to work with Cargo Records, the label that signed Blink 182. From 1995 to 2000, he worked on more than 30 records for Cargo. The decision to found Track Star Studios (in San Diego, CA) just made good business sense to Josquin who says, \u201cIt was really simple, actually. As we were doing more and more records for Cargo and I was getting paid as a producer and then taking the projects to local San Diego studios, I decided, for the money I was paying, I could build my own and collect that money from the record label as well.\u201d\nAnd the work hasn\u2019t ceased. Josquin des Pres records, produces, mixes and masters for an array of world-renowned artists and also works doing audio for film and television. Track Star Studios does all the music for MTV\u2019s Catfish, Pimp My Ride, Cribs and Teen Mom. Many of Josquin\u2019s apprentices get to work on these shows and earn real, professional credits they can add to their resume or CV. Labels and broadcasting companies are in the mix too, including Clear Channel Broadcasting, Virgin Records, Warner Bros and Slash Records to name just a few.\nAnd when it comes to hiring, Josquin turns to his apprentices and Recording Connection\u2019s pool of talent, knowing they\u2019ll have the skills and workplace familiarity it takes. Former Recording Connection apprentices who work with Josquin include: Phil Higgins who worked with Josquin for years and ultimately went on to found his own studio in Nashville (he and Josquin still team up on projects); Thomas Burdett, who took over when Phil moved to Nashville; Tim Schumann who does recording and tracking; Hayden Lewis, also for recording and tracking; and Aaron Castro for electronic and dance track programming.\nJosquin\u2019s standards are high and he demands the same of his apprentices. \u201cWe take our jobs very seriously. We even have a dress code, for apprentices too. Basically, we have all these rules to follow, how you behave around an artist, how you behave around celebrities, because we do have celebrities coming through. And it\u2019s a great environment\u2026They must understand and love today\u2019s music and also be very good on computers\u2026So basically, people skills, technical skills, and some understanding of music are important.\u201d\nRead our full interview with Josquin here.\nTags: San Diego\nRecording student Michael Ilumin is Building his Dream the Smart Way",

        "raw_content": "Invasive by Chuck Wendig\nThis book proudly wears its references on its sleeve. It's the child of Them! and Jurassic Park, with a large helping, now that I think about it, of George R.R. Martin's Sandkings. This is, depending on your point of view, either a good thing or a bad thing; the book is either paying homage or shamelessly ripping off. Personally, I think Wendig's book suffers by comparison to all three, and in my view it is not as memorable as any of its forebears.\nThis does not exactly make it a bad read, but it is not an outstanding one. It is fast, furious, snarky, depressing, harrowing in places, and unfortunately forgettable. I'm sure a movie will be made from it one of these days, but I won't be seeing it.\nMy main complaints are with the characters and the pacing. With the exception of the protagonist, the characterizations are shallow, and I didn't care about any of these people. (I eventually grew to resent the one- to three-page vignettes of characters that only existed to be devoured by our genetically engineered killer ants. At least Chuck Wendig was an equal-opportunity fridger--both men and women suffered this fate. But I would rather not have been introduced to them at all than to repeatedly see how many ingenious ways the ants can kill people.) The protagonist, Hannah Stander, was actually a well-fleshed-out character, and I wish the story had been told from her first-person point of view rather than the frantic, jittery third-person present-tense POV used. This ties in with my second complaint: the relentless, damn-the-torpedoes-full-speed-ahead pacing once the action gets going. There was no time to think or breathe. Again, that will make for a good film, but I don't care for it in a book. There has to be a chance to pause and reflect, to give the reader time to absorb what's happened and get ready for the next plot twist.\nUltimately, this was a summer beach read, nothing more. It's not something that's going to stick with me, or a book I will care to revisit.",

        "raw_content": "How Do You Tell If Something I...\nHow Do You Tell If Something Is Copper?\nThe simplest way to tell if something is copper is by its appearance, which is a unique reddish tone before oxidation. Its color turns green when oxidized. Copper also has several other notable properties, such as a high level of thermal and electrical conductivity, as well as specific strengths against a variety of stresses. Copper is extremely common in human use, both in piping in its pure form and in alloys such as brass and bronze in such forms as doorknobs and sculptures.\nIf an object's appearance does not show that it is copper, or if someone suspects that it is just a copper plating or paint, there are other ways to check. The least destructive ways are to weigh it, or to check its electrical conductivity. Copper weighs about 0.3 ounces per cubic centimeter, so if one have an easy way to calculate the volume of material, he will be able to predict a copper object's weight. The electrical standard potential of copper is either 0.522 volts or 0.345 volts, depending on the type. This may be misleading, however, because a thick enough coating of copper will conduct electricity by itself. Pure copper is relatively soft and is easily scratched with common steel tools.\nWhat Is the Hottest Part of a Flame?\nWhat Will Be the Results of Combining Copper Chloride With Aluminum?\nhow to know if\nhow do you know it's love\nhow do you know you're in love\nFacts about Copper\nCopper Information",

        "raw_content": "Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's influential musical tragedy set the stage for the climactic dance ballets that became a staple of the Arthur Freed-MGM musicals (An American in Paris, Singin' in the Rain and The Band Wagon) of the early 1950s. Hans Christian Andersen's tragic fairy tale forms the basis of this film about betrayal, love and art. The story begins as struggling composer Julian Craster (Marius Goring) attends a performance of the Lermontov Ballet Company and recognizes his own score in the production of \"Hearts of Fire.\" Julian protests to ballet company director Boris Lermontov (Anton Walbrook) about the unauthorized use of his music. Impressed by Julian's talent, Boris hires him to compose the score for his next ballet \u2013 a dance version of \"The Red Shoes.\" Boris also hires an attractive young dancer, Victoria Page (Moira Shearer), to perform in the ballet. When the lead ballerina announces that she plans to get married, Boris, in a pique over being abandoned, casts Victoria in the starring role. As Julian works on the score and Victoria struggles to perfect her dance technique, the two fall in love. When \"The Red Shoes\" ballet is premiered \u2013 seen in a stunning and glorious fifteen-minute sequence \u2013 it is a raging success and it makes Victoria a star. But when Boris learns that Julian and Victoria have fallen in love, Boris, who is secretly in love with Victoria, in a fit of rage forces Julian to leave the ballet company; Victoria leaves with him. Since Boris owns the rights to \"The Red Shoes\" ballet, he forbids Victoria to perform the dance and she becomes unemployable. Time passes and Julian and Victoria are now happily married. Julian's compositions have made him an international success. One day, with Victoria disembarking from a train in Paris, she meets Boris, who implores her to do one performance of \"The Red Shoes\" in Monaco. Victoria agrees as Julian cancels an engagement in London to travel to Monte Carlo in order to convince his wife not to perform the ballet. But Victoria goes on with the performance, with tragic results.\nThe Red Shoes \u2013 1948",

But moving forward, we\u2019re going to continue to build this team and build around the foundation that we have,\u201d Bidwill said.\nThe Cardinals drafted quarterback Josh Rosen with their first-round pick last year.

Rowling, grossed $58.18 million in North America and $45.85 million overseas on Wednesday, the Time Warner Inc-owned studio said.\nThe U.S.-Canadian tally, which includes a record $22.2 million from midnight showings, marks the second-biggest Wednesday opening domestically.\nOnly last month\u2019s \u201cTransformers: Revenge of the Fallen\u201d scored a bigger midweek first-day gross, with $62 million in domestic ticket sales on Wednesday June 24, according to Paul Dergarabedian, box office analyst for Hollywood.com.\nThe latest \u201cHarry Potter\u201d also ranks as the fourth-highest single-day gross for a film release in North America, behind No. 1 \u201cDark Knight\u201d ($67.1 million), No. 2 \u201cTransformers: Revenge,\u201d and third-place \u201cSpider-Man 3\u201d ($59.8 million).\n\u201cQuite simply, we owe this record-breaking opening to the remarkable fans who have stood by us and who stood in line to be among the first to see \u2018Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,\u2019\u201d Warner Bros President and Chief Operating Officer Alan Horn said in a statement.\nSaid Dergarabedian: \u201cThis is a tremendous opening.

They said that my case is not very difficult, but that they need the document from the president [before they can proceed with any kind of defense].\u201d\nHoang said that the French Consulate had also requested the official document with Quang\u2019s signature \u201cso they can have their lawyers do what they can for me,\u201d but had received no reply.\nHe said rights lawyer Ha Huy Son had advised him to apply to renounce his French citizenship, so that he becomes a national solely of Vietnam, which he did in a letter to the French Consulate on June 2.\n\u201cThen the Vietnamese government could not do anything [to strip my citizenship],\u201d he said, adding that the French Consulate had notified him that it would take six months to officially renounce his French nationality.\n\u201c[The Vietnamese government] currently have the right [to strip my citizenship], because I have two nationalities.\u201d\nHoang said he doesn\u2019t feel as if he is \u201closing anything\u201d by renouncing his French citizenship.\n\"My desire to live in my country, near my family is too strong,\u201d he said.\n\u201cI'm not young anymore, nor do I want to move forward in my career. I just hope to live and serve in Vietnam. I was already thinking about giving up my French citizenship, so there is nothing holding me back.\u201d\nHoang lived in France as an international student from 1973 until the late 1990s, when he returned to Ho Chi Minh City to teach at the Saigon University of Science and Technology.\nAn activist blogger, Hoang spent 17 months in prison for \u201cundermining national security\u201d and \u201cruining the nation\u2019s image\u201d through writings critical of Vietnam\u2019s government, before being released in January 2012 and serving three years of probation.\nReported by RFA\u2019s Vietnamese Service.

        "raw_content": "I read this article and found it very interesting, thought it might be something for you. The article is called New penalties for employers failing to pay National Minimum Wage and is located at https://www.rocketlawyer.co.uk/blog/new-penalties-for-employers-failing-to-pay-national-minimum-wage/.\nNew penalties for employers failing to pay National Minimum Wage\nEmployment / Melissa Cook / 28 Oct 2013\nOn Tuesday 01 October 2013, the National Minimum Wage increased to reflect recommendations that were set out by the independent Low Pay Commission in April of this year.\nThe current rates are as follows :\n21 and above \u00a36.31 per hour (an increase of 12 pence)\n18 \u2013 20 \u00a35.03 per hour (an increase of 5 pence)\nThe apprentice rate also increased by 3 pence per hour to \u00a32.68.\nAccording to the gov.uk website, more than 890,000 of Britain\u2019s lowest paid workers will gain from the new rates. Business Secretary Vince Cable describes National Minimum Wage as \u201c\u2026a vital safety net in protecting the low paid.\u201d\nIt is easy to see not only the importance of National Minimum Wage, but also why it is key to review it annually and implement recommendations. Without National Minimum Wage workers and employees could find themselves working for very little money, making it difficult for them to survive.\nThe National Minimum Wage must be reviewed annually in keeping with inflation, but raising the National Minimum Wage too high could act as a deterrent for employers wanting to keep costs down. This could result in less jobs being made available. There is clearly a fine balance, and Vince Cable goes on to describe the work of the Low Pay Commission carried out each year as \u201c\u2026a huge amount of detailed and valuable work to make sure they recommend a rate that supports people on low pay without damaging their chances of getting a job.\u201d\nPaying less than National Minimum Wage is quite obviously illegal, yet many employers still flout the law and do not comply with the rates. The government has decided to crack down on this further, and is imposing a new punishment for employers who do not pay the set rates, to accompany the financial penalties already in place.\nFrom 01 October this year, the government will now publish a list of those employers that fail to pay employees the National Minimum Wage. The intention is that the idea of being publicly named and shamed will act as a deterrent for employers considering paying less than the required hourly rate.\nInformation on paying wages to your employees is available in the Rocket Lawyer UK quick guide to pay and benefits\nBack to School!

        "raw_content": "Faith Hill, Kellie Pickler Set for New Daytime Talk Show\nHill will co-executive produce the untitled series; Pickler will be among the hosts\nFaith Hill, who has spent more than two decades in the spotlight with her music, headlining concert specials and making countless TV appearances, has kept a close eye on all that goes on behind the scenes. Now, the superstar entertainer is parlaying that experience into a new daytime talk show. Hill will serve as co-executive producer of the series, which has tapped the equally TV-savvy Kellie Pickler as one of the show\u2019s hosts.\nThe as-yet-unnamed series will be based in Nashville and shot in a modern farmhouse-style home. A release describes it as \u201can informative, southern-inspired and fun-filled celebration of everyday living and activities.\u201d The series will team Hill with former Oprah co-executive producer and OWN executive Lisa Erspamer, along with Legendary Television and Jason Owen\u2019s Nashville-based management company, Sandbox Entertainment. Producers of the show promise it will be \u201chighly interactive and shop-able,\u201d featuring experts sharing tips and news on cooking, gardening, entertaining and home design.\n\u201cThis is a woman who has so many talents,\u201d Hill says of Pickler, whose extensive TV credits began as a finalist on American Idol and will star in the new CMT reality series I Love Kellie Pickler, debuting November 5th. \u201cKellie is smart, compassionate, funny, quick-witted and has a heart for service. . . . She possesses the ability to reach far beyond the camera and into the hearts of people, allowing you to feel immediately connected to her. There was no question in my mind that she should be a big part of this show.\u201d\nA pair of Hill\u2019s most recent public appearances had the Mississippi-born belter joining Little Big Town in a \u201cGirl Crush\u201d performance and singing a brief duet with husband Tim McGraw at his Nashville concert this summer. But fans are still left to wonder when she might unveil a follow-up to her most recent studio LP, Fireflies, which marked the 10th anniversary of its release last August.\nIn This Article: Faith Hill,\tKellie Pickler",

Along with the other articles in the first part, they examine the evolution of aristocratic families and the composition of this group, the relative importance of landholding and public office, the notion of 'civilian' and 'military' families, and patterns of inheritance. In the second part, the focus is on the Byzantine army, with studies looking both at the position of aristocrats within it, and more generally at the effectiveness of the army itself, notably in the campaigns in Asia Minor against the Arabs and the Turks.\nContents: Introduction.

Farrington, Magda Stouthamer-Loeber, Helene Raskin White\nIn this volume, top experts in the field of delinquency discuss the implications of the findings of the Pittsburgh Youth Study for current conceptualizations of antisocial behavior. Violence and Serious Theft is unique in that it combines the strengths of three disciplines to explain delinquency in young people: developmental psychopathology, criminology, and public health. The book addresses questions in two main areas: serious offending as an outcome over time and developmental aspects of serious offending; and factors which explain why some young males become violent and/or commit serious crime while others do not. Violence and Serious Theft is a resource for researchers, practitioners and students in developmental, school and counseling psychology; psychopathology, psychiatry, public health and criminology.\nPart I: Introduction and Methods.

        "raw_content": "When rain began to fall Oct. 5, Bozzano sent workers home and promised to call in the morning with a time to resume.\n\u201cThey\u2019d been moved to another ranch first thing in the morning,\u201d Bozzano said. \u201cThat\u2019s never happened, to lose workers within eight hours. Suddenly, everyone\u2019s pulling from the same pool.\n\u201cBecause of our size, we were able to rally people,\u201d he added. But they lost time as moisture threatened to damage the chardonnay crop. \u201cInstead of starting at 8 in the morning, they started at 11 or noon.\u201d\nSome small vineyards, on the other hand, are \u201ctoo small to make it worth it\u201d for seasonal pickers, said Jason Mainini, whose family owns Mainini Vineyard on Indian Valley Road in San Miguel.\n\u201cThere will always be a need for pickers for head-trained vines,\u201d he added. They sit lower to the ground, making them difficult to machine pick.\nFewer workers here\nMost grapes harvested in San Luis Obispo County are gathered mechanically.\n\u201cNow that we\u2019re machine harvesting, we hire probably 50 through the labor contractor,\u201d said Hank Ashby, vineyard manager at French Camp Vineyards in Shandon.\nWith 1,250 vineyard acres, it\u2019s one of the largest growers in the county.\n\u201cIt used to be huge numbers when we hand-picked,\u201d Ashby said. \u201cI\u2019d never be able to get that many now. There\u2019s definitely a labor shortage for agriculture. We choose our customers based on whether they\u2019ll take machine harvest or not.\u201d\nWith market prices down in recent years, French Camp and others have saved on labor costs by switching to machines.\nA hand-picking crew might consist of 40 people, said Americo Estrada, a local labor contractor. Machine-picking requires three.\nAs more growers move to mechanized harvesting, temporary workers have fewer sources of income and tend to migrate to areas where there\u2019s steady demand for their services.\n\u201cA few years ago, we used almost 500 people in the harvest time,\u201d said Estrada, who now represents about 80 to 90 workers. \u201cNow, we don\u2019t pick that much.\u201d\nSeeking steady work\nStarting at an average wage of about $10 an hour, temporary workers can\u2019t afford to idle long.\n\u201cThe only way we\u2019re keeping our people is when we have a steady harvest and pick every day,\u201d Estrada said. \u201cThey go wherever there is work. They\u2019re not going to work two or three days a week or wait for work.\u201d\nSo when the grape harvest started about three weeks behind schedule in September, some growers found their usual crews had moved on to vegetables that were ripe.\nThe larger economic picture also is shifting more immigrant workers back to their native countries.\n\u201cThe quality of life is improving in Mexico,\u201d Bozzano said. \u201cAt Laetitia, we\u2019ve lost people, because they\u2019re retiring. It is hard to find legal replacements. We\u2019ve had to turn people away, because they didn\u2019t have documents.\u201d\nFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis says he wants to eliminate a waiting list for around 14,000 low-income students seeking to use a tax-payer funded scholarship program that lets them attend private schools.",

Vinification takes place in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature of around 16 \u2013 18\u00b0 C (61 \u2013 64\u00b0 F) and, after a brief period of rest, the base wine is put into pressurized tanks with selected yeasts to referment. This second fermentation is carried out at a controlled temperature of 16\u00b0 C (61\u00b0 F) in order to preserve the wine\u2019s fine aromas and obtain a sparkling wine with great freshness and an appealing bouquet. Once the desired pressure has been obtained, the wine remains for a period of at least three months on its lees, prior to isobaric bottling.\nPreceded by an intense, persistent perlage, the nose of this sparkling wine reveals characteristic scents of green apples, wild flowers and aromatic herbs such as mint. On the palate, its vibrant freshness and lively bubbles unfurl fruity and balsamic notes with grace and persistence, creating a sprightly and enchanting taste sensation.\nExcellent as an aperitif, it goes well with all sorts of vegetable-based hors d\u2019oeuvres, fragrant pasta and rice dishes and fried fish or vegetables. You absolutely must try it with pizza!",

        "raw_content": "This use case provides highlights from the presentation ofDr.-Ing. Zoltan Gobor, Bavarian State Research Center for Agriculture at ScilabTec 2015.\nGermany is the first hop producer in the world and cultivation of hops for commercial production requires a particular environment. As hops are a climbing plant, they are trained to grow up trellises made from strings or wires that support the plants and allow them significantly greater growth with the same sunlight profile.\nIn Germany, approximately 18,000ha are cultivated under hop and that requires a 8m high trellis system. Each year, the supporting wires are replaced and currently manual fastened which is a long, risky and uncomfortable process depending moreover on the weather conditions.\nThe idea of automated attachment of supporting wires in hop gardens is protected since 2002 and, since 2008, the German Federal Agency for Food and Agriculture (BLE) funded a joint project in order to optimize the system, develop a prototype and the diagnostic tools.\nThe device consists of a main assembly mounted on the front-end loader, and a special carrier for the wire coil attached to a three-point linkage of the tractor.\nThe attachment of the supporting wires is controlled by a programmable logic controller(PLC) and carried out on defined distances whereas the tractor moves forward along the longitudinal cable with up to 1.8 km/h [1]. The mobile data acquisition system were based on a compact modular data logging system CompactDAQ (National Instrument) and an adequate software solution for data acquisition, created with LabVIEW (National Instrument). The data acquisition system provided important information considering the system performance and allowed error analysis in case of outage.\nFor the off-line data analyses a Scilab function was developed allowing automated visualisation and analysis of the data. The function returned information about the beginning and ending of single operations, time required for execution of single tasks and the total time of each complete sequence. Furthermore, information about the accuracy, stability and reliability of the subsystems of the prototype during the testing are calculated.\nWithin a new project the developed prototype and the diagnostic tool should be improved in order to develop a zero-series device. The aim is inter alia development of the on-line diagnostic system based on CompactRIO (National Instrument) LabVIEW FPGA and LabVIEW Real-Time with integration of the Scilab code using LabVIEW to Scilab Gateway.\n[1] Gobor, Z., Fr\u00f6hlich, G.

        "raw_content": "Struggle is real: UK businesses unprepared for cyber-attack response\nBusinesses in the UK are struggling to face the looming threat of cyber-attacks, with nearly a third of C-level executives admitting they don't have a response plan - or don't even know whether or not they have one.\nAt a cyber-security roundtable in which new research findings from Axial Systems were discussed, Nathaniel Wallis, security specialist said: \u201cIn our experience, many businesses do not have any kind of a response plan in place to manage the consequences of a successful cyber-attack on their business. That's despite the fact that many will have already experienced serious cyber-breaches and are likely to experience more in the future. Often, nobody really owns this problem at \u2018C' level. There is still a lot of education to be done.\u201d\nThe survey results were collected from 250 C-Suite members in organisations with over 50 staff.\nThe survey found that even those directors who said they did have a response plan struggled to provide much detail around it. Many respondents gave basic answers, unlikely to constitute a sufficient response and some expressed a lack of knowledge of the process or argued that they were not responsible and had \u201ca team to handle it\u201d.\nMore than half (52 percent) of C-Level respondents said that cyber-security is the responsibility of the IT department. Only 35 percent said there was a separate security department in place but, significantly, fewer than half of those said that the department was led by a dedicated chief security officer (CSO) or chief information security officer (CISO).\n\u201cThe business as a whole should own information security, not the IT department. It should be a board level responsibility. They should be pushing down the requirements and then making individuals accountable. IT are there to implement the procedure or to control and manage it. They are not there to police it,\u201d argued Jason Hart, CTO for the enterprise and cyber-security division of Gemalto.\n\u201cIT departments will inevitably be distracted by a host of other challenges which will make it difficult for them to focus sufficient time and expert resource on security issues. By not having a dedicated security team, organisations are potentially putting themselves at even greater risk,\u201d Mike Simmonds, managing director at Axial Systems commented.\nC-level directors themselves were revealed to sometimes fail to lead by example. Levels of \u201ctransgression\u201d with regards to personal use of business data appear to be much higher among senior directors than among office workers in general.\nNearly half (45 percent) of C-level respondents admitted to having stored company data on a home computer while just 14 percent of office workers surveyed in a parallel poll by Axial (also of employees from organisations with more than 50 staff) confessed to having done the same. Eighteen percent of office workers said they had sent work data to their personal devices for easy access and 41 percent of senior directors admitted the same.\nHalf of office workers have received no training on cyber-security since joining their current business. Furthermore, many lack a clear understanding of their business's security policies regarding IoT and GDPR.\n\u201cSecurity training within businesses today is essentially not working. There needs to be different types of training for different types of individuals within the organisation. More importantly, the training needs to highlight the potential impact of security breaches to specific individuals,\u201d Hart said.\nOnly 17 percent of the C-level respondents think their organisation is fully prepared for GDPR and for good reason. Many employees are not well versed in the GDPR implications and dedicated security teams are in short supply. Lastly, despite it being a mandatory requirement of the pending regulation in many cases, 26 percent of C-level directors said their businesses did not have a Data Protection Officer (DPO) in place.\n\u201cGDPR was designed really as a \u2018minimum specification'. We have to really remember that. It's not the case that the regulation is something that we should aim for. It's more about the authorities stating that this is really the base level standard and if you are more than a \u2018hair' off this, you are going to get sanctioned. What organisations should really be saying is here is our baseline, let's try to exceed that, let's excel. You'd hope that every company and every CEO or business owner would always do that, would always say, \u2018We are going to go above and beyond.' In reality, of course that's not the case,\u201d said Cal Leeming, CEO of Lyons Leeming.\n\u201cSecurity ultimately needs to be transparent to the individual user. We are a long way from that point today. But there are hopeful signs. The onward march of AI and behavioural analytics is helping drive the process and the move to cloud and microservices will help to accelerate it. Looking to the future, however, if this is to be sustained, we need to see more collaboration between technology vendors and cloud providers and vendors need to make security simpler and easier for users,\u201d Hart said.\nIBM Resilient study shows organisations not prepared for cyber-attacks\nRecent OpenSSL Patches Show Why Using Containers to Enhance Vulnerability Response Plans is a Good Idea\n36% of organisations have no cyber-attack response plan in place",

I\u2019m so passionate about the need to equip today\u2019s young people with the digital literacy and critical thinking skills that our future economy will so desperately need.\n\u201cJobs that will exist in 20 years haven\u2019t even been invented yet and that\u2019s why it\u2019s crucial that the next generation is aware from an early age of the sheer scope of roles outside of the typical IT stereotypes.\n\u201cOur message to young people is clear; not only can you be part of the digital revolution, you can drive it! It\u2019s our job to build both their skills and their confidence and to ensure a diverse range of people are entering the industry.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a sector that has traditionally been male-dominated and we\u2019re working hard to make sure that both men and women understand and can access the wealth of opportunity that a career in IT can offer.\n\u201cOn a personal level, I want to see other young women afforded the same opportunities within the digital industry that I\u2019ve had. We\u2019ve seen a significant increase in the number of female students taking part in our activities \u2013 around a quarter of participants at our recent CodeCamp were girls \u2013 but there\u2019s still more to do. That\u2019s why I\u2019m currently part of a panel that\u2019s developing an exciting programme of events for a future conference around women in technology,\u201d she added.\nPartnering with organisations such as The Prince\u2019s Trust and Code Club, as well as running large-scale events such as CodeCamp and BelTech EDU, each year Kainos donates over \u00a3120,000 and 1,000 hours of staff time to initiatives within the Tech Outreach programme.

The General Assembly finds that the periodic redistricting of the House of Representatives, the Senate, and the congressional districts is a responsibility of great consequence for it is designed to guarantee fair and effective representation for all citizens of South Carolina. It is a duty whose performance involves the analysis of population data, the study of geographic and demographic factors, the assistance of statisticians and other technical experts, and the development and completion of a redistricting plan in time not only to provide for an orderly electoral process and an informed electorate but also to comply with all state and federal election laws, including primary election and general election schedules prescribed by statute and by the state Constitution. The General Assembly also finds that benefits are to be gained from the participation of the major political parties and of the public in the process. For these reasons, the General Assembly considers it proper and necessary to provide formally for public participation in the formulation of a redistricting plan by establishing an independent commission to construct redistricting plans in a timely fashion and to prescribe a schedule to best ensure that the periodic redistricting of the House of Representatives, the Senate, and the congressional districts is carried out in conformity with statutorily and constitutionally prescribed dates in the nomination and election process and with all other state and federal election laws.\nSection 2-80-20. For purposes of this chapter the:\n(1) redistricting plan defines the boundaries of electoral districts in a manner that is consistent with the most recent federal census and with the criteria specified in Section 2-80-50; and\n(2) most recently completed United States Census qualifies as the decennial enumeration required by Section 3, Article III of the Constitution of this State.\nSection 2-80-30. The General Assembly shall adopt a redistricting plan for the House of Representatives, Senate, and congressional districts by the second Thursday in May of the year following the year of the decennial United States Census after receipt of final redistricting plans as required by the provisions of this chapter.

Communities of interest may not be interpreted to include relationships with political parties, incumbency, or political candidates. The place of residence of an incumbent or a political candidate may not be considered in the apportionment of districts, nor shall districts be apportioned for the purpose of favoring or discriminating against an incumbent, political candidate, or political party. In drawing districts, the commission shall seek to achieve substantial population equality among districts with deviations for state House of Representatives and Senate districts allowable to achieve compliance with nondiscriminatory criteria.\n(E) The commission shall establish its own policies and procedures as necessary regarding the adoption of redistricting plans but shall follow parliamentary procedure as published in Mason's Manual or Robert's Rules of Order, in its discretion, and the commission shall adopt such district boundaries as are approved by a simple majority of the members of the commission.\nSection 2-80-60.

        "title": "The Seattle Review of Books - Thursday Comics Hangover: The city gone by",
        "raw_content": "Thursday Comics Hangover: The city gone by\nWhen I was younger, I didn\u2019t really understand the appeal of Ben Katchor\u2019s strip Julius Knipl: Real Estate Photographer. It has always been easy to see that Katchor is a talented artist \u2014 every panel is a beautifully composed portrait of urban life, every person in each panel has their own unique personality and history. But something about the strip resisted my attentions. I couldn\u2019t find a character to identify with in Knipl, or any situations that spoke to me. I chalked it up as one of those rare strips \u2014 Prince Valiant is another \u2014 that is clearly of high quality, but which never really grabbed my attention.\nDrawn & Quarterly just reissued the first real Knipl graphic novel from Katchor. It\u2019s titled Cheap Novelties, and it\u2019s a beautiful book, designed to look like it\u2019s been wrapped in old newsprint, with the strips reproduced in a larger-than-life format. I thought I\u2019d give it another try, as I\u2019d done on multiple occasions over the years, just to make sure Katchor\u2019s work still didn\u2019t work for me.\nEvery once in a while, a reading life suddenly shifts dramatically, and a once-impenetrable work of art instantly melds with your subconscious. That\u2019s what reading Cheap Novelties was like for me. From the very first page, I immediately understood the point of the Knipl strip, and of Katchor\u2019s work. I eagerly read Cheap Novelties and found myself wanting to reinvestigate all of Katchor\u2019s books.\nThe thing I had never quite understood about Katchor\u2019s strip is that the city is the main character. Every page in Cheap Novelties is about some strange aspect of city life: a failing chain of flophouses, the diminished prominence of kosher slaughterhouses, the variety of paperweights used to hold down newspapers at newsstands. They\u2019re little tributes to disappearing aspects of city life, some real and some fictional.\nKatchor works at the boundaries of nostalgia and the black hole of memory created when something disappears from our shared experience. I\u2019ve heard plenty of people reminisce fondly about the simple and immobile analog pleasure of landlines, for example, but very few people can remember the satisfying heft of carrying a desktop phone in their hands, or the weird, voyeuristic frustration of sharing a party line with their talkative neighbors. You don\u2019t long for the disappearing city that Katchor documents in Cheap Novelties, exactly, but you do want to acknowledge it, to pay it tribute somehow by bearing witness.\nIn one strip, a movie theater removes its large marquee and replaces it with a smaller, more stylish sign, we are informed, \u201cin an effort to look modern,\u201d and \u201cto save on electricity,\u201d and \u201cto be taken seriously,\u201d and \u201cto be tasteful,\u201d and \u201cto improve the block.\u201d Our hero, eager to watch a film, walks right by the marquee-less movie theater without noticing it. \u201cI thought it was around here\u2026must be farther,\u201d he mutters to himself. \u201cMaybe those lights in the distance.\u201d The name of the theater (The Bosporus) and the film (An Autopsy for Two) are just extra punchlines on top of the poignant vignette.\nCheap Novelties doesn\u2019t aspire to make cities great again, and it\u2019s not interested in wallowing in the past, or whitewashing history into something wholly admirable. But in every strip, Katchor is throwing a wake for some quotidian urban object or another, admiring them for the purpose that they served, even as he acknowledges that the world has moved on. If you\u2019ve never appreciated the appeal of Katchor\u2019s work, I urge you to give Cheap Novelties a try. Katchor admires and celebrates a city that has suddenly become irrelevant, and his work has a way of suddenly finding a new relevance when you\u2019re ready to see it.",

Key officials, including freshman U.S. Rep.

        "raw_content": "Books to show off how smart you are\nThe latest Instagram trend is photos featuring books from a trendy, semi-obscure collection.\nLast fall, Jessica Ferri, a freelance writer in Brooklyn, New York, posted a photo to Instagram of her morning tableau: a plate of scrambled eggs and bacon, a mug of coffee and a paperback novel she was reading, \u201cOther Men\u2019s Daughters\u201d by Richard Stern.\nEarlier this year, she posted another artfully arranged scene: pen and spiral-bound notebook, frothy mug and \u201cThe Collected Essays of Elizabeth Hardwick.\u201d\nFerri\u2019s reading choices have something in common besides being posed next to breakfast foods: They are New York Review Books Classics.\nAn offshoot of the literary magazine The New York Review of Books, the NYRB Classics imprint specializes in reissuing volumes that have fallen out of print or been otherwise neglected, such as J.R. Ackerley\u2019s \u201cMy Dog Tulip,\u201d a strange 1956 memoir about being a dog owner, and \u201cThe Door,\u201d an English translation of a 1987 novel by Hungarian author Magda Szabo.\nUnexpectedly, NYRB books, which sell for around $15 apiece, have also become design objects and totems of intellectual status.\nIndie bookstores all over the country devote entire shelves to displaying the handsome paperbacks. TV shows and films including \u201cThe Gilmore Girls\u201d and \u201cA Bigger Splash\u201d have used them as props. And social media is full of praise, including from actress Kat Dennings, who tweeted, \u201cI love you, @nyrbclassics,\u201d along with a photo of one of the nearly 500 books in the series, \u201cIn the Caf\u00e9 of Lost Youth\u201d by French Nobel Prize winner Patrick Modiano.\n\u201cThe NYRB books are really gorgeous and well done,\u201d Ferri says. \u201cThey\u2019re begging to be photographed, basically.\u201d\nEvery title has a colorful spine and back cover, and a matching color-blocked text box, or cartouche, on the center-front. The cover image is often a moody painting or photograph. The distinctive yet uniform design makes the series instantly recognizable, not unlike the old Penguin Classics with their orange-and-black covers.\nA bookshelf full of the colorful spines of New York Review Books Classics. (Angela Hederman via The New York Times)\n\u201cSimplicity is what I was thinking about,\u201d says Katy Homans, the graphic designer who created the NYRB Classic look. \u201cAnd also, I love color.\u201d She is forgiving of those who may not have slogged through the prose before hitting \u201cshare.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s a pretty heady group of books,\u201d Homans says. \u201cIf people are interested because they have a red spine, that\u2019s great.\u201d\nStephanie Valdez, an owner of the Community Bookstore in Brooklyn \u2014 which groups its large selection of NYRB Classics prominently near the register \u2014 likened the NYRB imprint to a cool record label (think Blue Note jazz LPs with their graphic blue dot, or Sub Pop).\n\u201cPeople who know about the series are excited to see so many in one place, or if they\u2019ve never heard of them, they\u2019re drawn to them,\u201d Valdez says.\nLike a band T-shirt, the NYRB books signify something about the owner. Fran\u00e7ois-Ren\u00e9 de Chateaubriand\u2019s \u201cMemoirs from Beyond the Grave,\u201d or \u201cThe Dud Avocado\u201d by Elaine Dundy, which is one of Greta Gerwig\u2019s 10 favorite books, are unlikely to be sold in a big chain store. To read the NYRB reissues of such titles suggests an awareness that some things are under the mainstream radar, and worth seeking out.\nEdwin Frank, who founded the Classics imprint in 1999, and continues to edit the series along with a colleague, Sara Kramer, says fostering a sense of discovery was a central goal. \u201cWe don\u2019t do books that are widely published elsewhere and available at cheap prices,\u201d Frank says.\nIt\u2019s no surprise that some of the greatest fans of the series are people in the publishing industry and writers like Ferri, or else voracious readers like Hayanna Kim. A so-called bookstagrammer, who posts her latest reads to social media, Kim has discovered Eve Babitz and other lesser-known writers through the series, but has learned her favorites aren\u2019t for everyone.\n\u201cWhen I recommend books like Renata Adler, some people don\u2019t get it,\u201d she says. \u201cBut that\u2019s the point.\u201d",

Before hiring an agency, read reviews and ratings online to learn more about the key services offered and what to expect.\nThe following are reviews posted on SeniorAdvisor.com about various in-home care agencies in Buffalo and the surrounding area.\nRegarding tasks, the client of Goodcare Home Health Services asked the agency to perform: \u201cVery nice aides who paid attention to what I wanted done.\u201d\nRegarding the quick response and part-time caregiving from the granddaughter of a client of The Caregiver\u2019s Choice: \u201cLess than 12 hours after contacting \u2026I had received a call from a knowledgeable staff member that listened to all of my concerns and needs\u2026We currently have two wonderful women here who rotate in 4 to 5 days a week and we couldn\u2019t be happier.\u201d\nRegarding the personal attention and involvement in-home care agencies can provide, here is a review from the family of a client of The Caregiver\u2019s Choice: \u201cThe woman in charge is just excellent, personally involved and never fails to communicate via email and phone and stays involved and in charge of the caregivers themselves. It makes me feel very confident.\u201d\nIn-Home Care Tailored to Your Needs\nOne of the top benefits of in-home care is the flexibility. Whether you need a caregiver for respite care while you are away on vacation or a full-time caregiver so you can work outside the home, an in-home aide can give you the best of both worlds. Agencies can provide aides for a few hours in the morning to administer medication and take care of the light housekeeping or overnight to provide companionship if you are gone.\nCustomizing Your In-Home Care Resources\nThe secret to customizing your in-home care is to use more than one resource, or at the very least, keep the names and phone numbers of other agencies and services in your phone.\nInterview and hire a qualified caregiver on your own. You don\u2019t need to go through an agency for an in-home care aide, if you feel confident in choosing one on your own. Some Buffalo seniors choose close friends or family members to hire for this role.\nUse an agency and a private caregiver. Even if you hire a private caregiver of your choosing, this person will need days off at times. An in-home care agency can work for you on a respite care basis at last-minute or to cover a vacation.\nSave time by using a senior concierge service. A concierge service, like Magic Assistants, can provide senior services and errand services when you need them the most. They can also do light and deep housecleaning and personal online shopping for you.\nResearch and compare all in-home care agencies, private caregivers, and concierge services before hiring. You can ask your friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers about services and companies they recommend.\nFunding In-Home Care\nLow income seniors in the Buffalo area that do not have Medicare can use New York\u2019s Medicaid Program to cover in-home care. The program offers several options, including Medicaid Personal Care Services, Certified Home Health Agency Services, and Private Duty Nursing or LPN Services. Check with your local office about the program that fits your loved one\u2019s needs.\nMedicare will cover in-home care, however the eligibility requirements are slim.\nYour loved one must be under a doctor\u2019s care with a care plan in place.\nYour loved one must be homebound.\nThe doctor has to recommend that your loved one need skilled nursing care or physical, speech, or occupational therapy services.\nOther options for funding in-home care include the VA Aid and Attendance Pension for veterans and their surviving spouses, long-term care insurance, and reverse mortgage loans. Consult with an elder-law attorney or senior financial advisor about other ways you can pay for in-home care for your loved one in Buffalo.\nLearn more about Caregiving in Buffalo, NY here:\nHow Much Does Buffalo In-Home Care Cost?\nBuffalo Aging-in-Place\nBuffalo Respite Care and Adult Day Care\nBuffalo Support Groups for Caregivers\nFind assisted living in Buffalo near you.",

        "raw_content": "https://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/Incredibles-2-despite-Hunter-Nelson-12991332.php\n\u2018Incredibles 2\u2019 \u2014 despite Hunter, Nelson and a good cast, the sequel stalls\nHelen/Elastigirl (voiced by Holly Hunter) takes the action lead in \u201cIncredibles 2.\u201d\nPhoto: Disney / Pixar\n\u201cIncredibles 2\u201d was 14 years in the making, and it feels almost that long watching it. The sequel to the original Pixar animation, about a family of superheroes, arrives at a time of superhero glut, so that what might have seemed fresh in 2004 feels more like a warmed-over \u201cSpy Kids\u201d movie, with obligatory superpowers thrown in.\nIt is, nonetheless, a Pixar movie, so there\u2019s a level of production that can\u2019t be denied. It has a visual sheen and a cast of actors who are not only of superior talent, but who also do their best. There\u2019s no slumming here. Just listen, for example, to what Craig T. Nelson does with his voice \u2014 the expressive variations in pitch, the nuance, the near-musicality with which he invests his lines. Or listen to the range of emotion that Catherine Keener conveys, despite the surface languor of her delivery. This is work to be taken seriously.\nStill, the movie stalls. Written and directed by Brad Bird, \u201cIncredibles 2\u201d seems like an attempt to make an animated film that only happens to be animated. That is, an animated film that might have been just as effective as a live-action film. Whatever the intention, \u201cIncredibles 2\u201d plays out as the worst of both worlds, a combination of the typical weaknesses of both animated and live-action superhero films, with few of the strengths.\nIt\u2019s long, clocking in at about two hours, and it contains the kind of barely comprehensible action sequences that you expect from a superhero movie. There are also, rather unexpectedly, extended scenes of dialogue, which are not particularly good but do make you wonder, why did this have to be animation? Why was animation considered the ideal form for this?\nAt the same time, \u201cIncredibles 2\u201d has an air of whimsicality, a familiar quality of animated films that undercuts the drama. In common with other animated films, it also has a free-flowing quality. It allows itself the freedom to digress and be eccentric, so there are scenes and even entire characters that would be cut from another film. In a 75-minute animation, you can afford to digress and just gamble on being amusing. But a two-hour action movie has no time for a dyspeptic superhero named Reflux, who is introduced and then barely does anything for the rest of the film.\nSpeaking of not doing much, Samuel L. Jackson is pretty much wasted. He shows up, in the form of a family friend and fellow superhero Lucius, and aside from getting into a few fights, he has little to do and nothing fun to say. If you\u2019ve got Jackson in the cast, don\u2019t worry about writing scenes for tertiary characters like Edna, who babysits the Incredibles\u2019 infant son. Instead, come up with something worthwhile for one of your stars.\nThroughout \u201cIncredibles 2,\u201d there is the sense (and maybe it\u2019s only an impression) of seeing material that was worked out in detail and then no one had the heart to discard once it proved superfluous. In fact, the movie might have worked in a streamlined version, because the basic story isn\u2019t bad. As the movie begins, superheroes are outlawed, but a telecommunications mogul (Bob Odenkirk) devises a publicity campaign to popularize superheroes and change the law.\nThe nice touch is that the mogul and his scientist sister (Keener) are particularly interested in the publicity value of Mrs. Incredible \u2014 that is, Elastigirl (Holly Hunter), and not her stronger and flashier but more destructive husband (Craig T. Nelson). So the movie follows Elastigirl on her adventures, but also cuts to scenes showing Mr. Incredible at home, struggling to run a household consisting of a teenager, a toddler and infant.\nThe Elastigirl part of the story is something you\u2019d more expect to see in a live-action movie, while the story of Mr. Incredible at home, coping with a powerful baby who shoots fireballs and lasers, lends itself more to animation. So it\u2019s unfortunate that all the story momentum is with the action part of the plot, and that all the genuinely charming family stuff \u2014 the scenes that work best, as animation \u2014 feels like a digression.\nIn \u201cIncredibles 2,\u201d there is a villain on the loose, hypnotizing people into violent acts through the use of a computer screen. Thus, mixed in here, there\u2019s a not-so-subtle public service message that the movie\u2019s young audience might benefit from hearing, that living life on a computer is not healthy.\nThen again, for children to get that message, they will have to be wide awake for it. At two hours long, \u201cIncredibles 2\u201d may prove a difficult stretch for young audiences.\nMovies with Mick LaSalle\nA tale of \u2018Frankenstein\u2019 author \u2018Mary Shelley\u2019 and every monster she ever met\nCameos by the real robbers give \u2018American Animals\u2019 crime film a lift\nWorth seeing: \u2018Upgrade\u2019 gets a thumbs-up, \u2018Death of Stalin\u2019 makes the cut\nWhat are the most overrated movies?\nAnimated action.

        "raw_content": "Recall when you were a young child gathered with your friends. You\u2019re all in deep discussion about what game you\u2019ll play together. Timmy suggests dodge ball, Susie offers a board game, and you too like the board game idea. Thus, your and Suzie\u2019s democracy votes board game, while Timmy angrily refuses. Eventually, Timmy gives you the ultimatum, \u201cif we don\u2019t play dodge ball, I\u2019m going home!\u201d It\u2019s a temperamental withdrawal tactic that people continually use throughout their lives \u2013 usually with a little less immaturity.\nThis is where your counterpart, often dramatically, will exit the discussion hoping you\u2019ll fear a no-deal or no-conclusion and make a concession just to bring them back to the table. By doing so, they gain a concession without giving one. You\u2019ll often see a hasty change in demeanor and location, and hear a \u201cfine then\u2026\u201d or \u201cthis is too much\u2026\u201d or \u201cthis is ridiculous\u2026\u201d or \u201cwe\u2019re getting nowhere\u2026\u201d\nConsider the following techniques to manage the Withdrawal Technique:\nUse a Hypothetical. Let\u2019s say someone says something like, \u201cI have told you that I do not think that I can get this proposal agreed to by my Board, so I am going to have to stop these discussions entirely.\u201d While this sounds like a Withdrawal, the fact that the other side provides a condition regarding getting the proposal \u201cagreed to by the board\u201d provides an indication that the withdrawal may not be a withdrawal. To test the other side, you could ask: \u201cHypothetically speaking, if you were able to get it past the Board, would you be willing to continue the conversation?\u201d If the other side agrees to continue the discussion, then you have prevented the Withdrawal.\nOffer Mutual Concessions. Rather than making a one-sided concession just to get the other side to the table, propose a resolution where each side makes a concession. This approach gives the other side a potential reason to return, but it does not provide them with a unilateral gain just to bring them back to the table.\nFocus on Previous Progress. Rather than conceding to get the other side to the table, try to get the other side to agree that there has been substantial progress made in the past and that momentum may help remind them that although there is frustration at this point, the past progress you have made should justify that the other side not just walk away at this point.\nRon Shapiro\u2019s Role in the Early Years of Oprah\u2019s Career\nThe man who discovered Oprah, Dennis Swanson, former Chicago TV exec, recalls how it all unfolded in 1983:\n\u201cWell, you know, she had the best attorney in Baltimore, Ron Shapiro, who handled Brooks Robinson, a lot of the Orioles, who were a championship team at that time. The tricky part of it was, her contract didn\u2019t expire until the end of the year. But then, the people that had the contract had a 60-day option in there, and I said to Shapiro, I said, \u2018We\u2019ll wait till January 1, because she\u2019s worth waiting for, but I can\u2019t wait the 60 days beyond that.\u2019 He negotiated out of that. We put her on the air the first of January, and we were in last place when we put her on the air \u2013 and we won the February (ratings) less than a month later.\u201d\nClick on the attached link to find out more about the role SNI Chairman, Ron Shapiro, played in the early years of Oprah Winfrey\u2019s career.\nhttp://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/05/21/earlyshow/saturday/main20065017.shtml\nMonetary Concession\nPeople may use three types of tactics to make you concede your pricing. They may start with \u201cGive me a ballpark price;\u201d \u201cYou have to do better than that;\u201d and \u201cLet\u2019s Split the Difference.\u201d Each of these is difficult to handle, and when combined throughout a discussion of price, they can create a \u201ctriple-whammy.\u201d\nLet\u2019s take a look at how to manage each of these monetary price concessions.\nGive me a Ballpark Price. There are two ways to manage this tactic. First you should resist the urge to provide a ballpark price. Rather than giving a figure off of the top of your head, tell the other side that you would much prefer to be able to think about the issue more so that you can make a more realistic assessment. If taking this approach is not possible, then make sure to lowball your ballpark to prevent getting locked into a bad deal before the discussion even starts.\nYou Have to do Better than that. Defend against this tactic by asking the other side, \u201cHow much better do I have to do?\u201d Asking this will force the other side to at least put a stake in the ground before you bid against yourself with no commitment from the other side.\nSplit the Difference. If the other side offers to split the difference, try to anchor them to the \u201csplit the difference price\u201d and then continue to discuss. Imagine you are offering $1,000 and the other side is asking for $2,000 and they suggest that you \u201csplit the difference.\u201d Try the following: \u201cI do not think that I can do $1,500, but I appreciate that you are willing to compromise. Now that I\u2019m at $1,000 and you can agree to $1,500, I think that we are closer to reaching an agreement.\u201d If you can then continue the discussion and then offer to \u201cbe fair\u201d and split the difference, you now may be able to end up at $1,250.\nSometimes you may find yourself in a situation with two or more participants on one team, you\u2019ll notice one partner acting very cordial and empathetic, where the other partner is extremely temperamental and demeaning. The \u201cbad cop\u201d threatens you and probably declares that there is \u201cno reason to continue conversations.\u201d Once you begin to fear that you might lose the deal, the \u201cgood cop\u201d swoops in to assure you that all is not lost and if you can just be reasonable, perhaps you can both find a resolution. The object is to coerce you into believing that the \u201cgood cop\u201d is on your team, and thereby get you to provide additional information or even make concessions that you would not have otherwise made.\nThis is yet another tactic to manipulate you. Watch out for the good cop/bad cop scenario as it can lead you down a dangerous path in poor negotiation skills.\nCall their Game \u2013 Smile convincingly and say, \u201cThis feels a lot like good cop/bad cop. I do not want to get caught up in games like this. We have serious issues facing us, and if both of you are needed to make a decision, I suggest you get him back in the room.\u201d\nIgnore the Bad Cop \u2013 The Good Cop/Bad Cop tactic only works if you allow the bad cop to get you to lose your focus. Let the bad cop expel his energy so you can move forward and focus on the business at hand.\nTerminate the Session \u2013 Turn to the good cop and tell him that it is obvious that the other person is too upset to carry forward. This should get the good cop to attempt to convince you to stay and you should thereby be able to regain control.\nWhile it may be tempting, going \u201ctoe-to-toe\u201d with the bad cop is usually not an effective way to manage this technique. Even if you are able to quiet down the bad cop, going into attack mode will likely cause you to lose your focus. The other side will use this loss of focus to get you to reveal information or make concessions that you may not have done if you had been able to maintain a more focused approach.",

        "title": "Singing Praises: A Call for Reviews - Sharon Theresa Wheaton",
        "raw_content": "Singing Praises: A Call for Reviews\nGreetings from Team Wheaton! (Sharon) \u2013 I\u2019ve been having some inner debates on exactly what I want this blog to be. Blogs are so diverse in today\u2019s world I\u2019ve been struggling with this new opportunity to do something a little different. I\u2019m still struggling with how to talk to the faceless friends and potential clients that decided to glance over any over my blog post. At this point, I feel like sharing events in my world, plus all the neat things I\u2019ve been learning as a new(ish) cultural wedding photographer.\nWe currently spend about half of the year in Nashville and half of the year in Atlanta traveling and servicing all my wonderful clients! Here in Nashville, I have few exciting opportunities on the horizon that I hope to share with you guys soon. Until that time, I think I\u2019ll continue to write my stream of ramblings for the masses and of course, share some of the beautiful weddings we\u2019ve been lucky enough to capture.\nYou guys know that very famous song, \u201cHooked on a Feeling\u201d? Bowie and I fell-in-love-all-over-again with this amazing song right after the first Guardians of the Galaxy came out a few summers ago. If you are as old (or older) than I am, you may remember this song being very popular in the late 90s. A little show called Ally McBeal resurrected this song from all who may have forgotten it existed from its original release in the late 1960s. With the updated version from Blue Swede, and Ally\u2019s biological clock ticking, the dancing baby was born. It was a memorial moment of 90s tv!\nLyrics: The story of a song\nLyrics have always been a huge inspiration of mine. I am very passionate about music that I love and the story of the song is just as important to me as the rhythm and the melodies! When I find a song that speaks to me in rhythm, I immediately start to learn the words so I can know the little nuggets of wisdom the artist has left for us to find. \u201cHooked on a Feeling\u201d is a simple enough song to be inspired by with lyrics like:\nOoga-chaka Ooga-Ooga\nGirl, you just don\u2019t realize\nIn your arms so tight\nI\u2019m hooked on a feeling\nI\u2019m high on believing\nThe singer can\u2019t believe his amazing luck that this lovely lady is in love with him. What luck to find such love in life. How lucky our bride felt to be serenaded with such a love song. I was grinning from ear to ear and may have even shed a tear at the adorable display! So here\u2019s my question for you tonight, dear readers: Are you hooked on Sharon Theresa Wheaton? \ud83d\ude09\nAsking for a review is probably my most dreaded request as a business owner. Bowie and I strive to serve our clients to the best of our ability every time we book a wedding. From start to finish I want the process to be easy and I want the execution to be flawless. These expectations are, in some ways, to hard to accomplish. Being realistic and being perfect doesn\u2019t work together and I struggle with wanting to be perfect all the time. I\u2019ve been very lucky to learn something new about myself with each review I\u2019ve received. Therefore, we push through and ask the tough questions. If you are reading this, and you feel you\u2019d like to give us a review, we would love to hear from you! Any review is appreciated, but if you would like to leave a more in-depth review to be featured on the website, please contact the studio directly.

        "raw_content": "The cast of high-flying pantomime adventure, Peter Pan at The Tall Ships in Sunderland. 'Jamie Lomas as Captain Hook, Richard McCourt as Mr Smee, Melanie Walters as Mother', Mrs Darling and Josh Andrews as Peter Pan.\nBoos at the ready as award-winning actor Jamie Lomas gets ready to take on the dastardly role of Captain Hook in Peter Pan at Sunderland Empire this Christmas.\nThe EastEnders and Hollyoaks actor will be joined in Neverland by CBBC\u2019s Richard McCourt aka Dick from Dick and Dom as Hook\u2019s right-hand man Mr Smee; Melanie Walters from Gavin and Stacey as Mrs Darling and West End actor Josh Andrews as Peter Pan.\nRichard McCourt\u2019s first ever panto was at Sunderland Empire in 1999 when he played Wishee Washee in Aladdin alongside Cobra the Gladiator.\nFor the past 22 years, Richard is better known as one half of the award winning Dick and Dom and this winter he\u2019s going solo for panto.\nMelanie Walters is best known for her role as Gwen West in the BAFTA-winning series Gavin and Stacey for the BBC alongside James Corden and Ruth Jones.\nMelanie has spent most of her professional life touring the country working in theatre, television and radio. Josh Andrew has appeared in a string of West End hit musicals including Cats, Book of Mormon and 42nd Street.\nIn 2017, Jamie Lomas was crowned runner-up in ITV\u2019s I\u2019m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here after completing a number of gruelling bush tucker trials and is best known for playing bad boy Warren Fox in Channel 4\u2019s Hollyoaks and Jake Stone in EastEnders.\nWe chat to Jamie about making his panto debut:\nYou were nominated for villain of the year, three years\u2019 running, what makes you good at being bad?\n\u201cProbably the way I look! (laughs). I just enjoy it. Most actors like to play a bad guy and some have built a career out of finding their niche in those kinds of roles. It\u2019s great fun, though. I get to be horrible in work and get paid for it.\u201d\nIf you could be Hook for a day in real life what would you do?\n\u201cWell I wouldn\u2019t drive \u2013 not with one hand. It\u2019d probably sail my ship down the Manchester Ship Canal and load it with treasure.\u201d\nWhat do your kids think of you playing a panto baddie?\nTake a step backstage at Miss Saigon during its Sunderland Empire run\n\u201cAw, they love it. I\u2019m going to buy them a box of tomatoes for Christmas so they can throw them at me on the stage.\n\u201cI expect they\u2019ll give me the loudest boos. Panto\u2019s all about kids and family and it\u2019s one of the reasons I\u2019m doing it this year.\u201d\nHave you played panto before?\n\u201cNo, this is my first one. I\u2019m looking forward to it. It\u2019s great fun for kids and I think as I\u2019ve got a bit older, with kids of my own, panto holds more of an appeal.\u201d\nYou came 2nd in last year\u2019s I\u2019m A Celebrity what attracted you to the jungle?\n\u201cI was offered a chance to go into it about five years ago, but it wasn\u2019t the right time. Again, I think when you get older you just want to take on more challenges. Not many people get a chance to spend three weeks in a jungle and it was a real experience. I had no food for nine days and lost two stones \u2013 it\u2019s all geared around pushing people\u2019s buttons and getting them to snap.\u201d\nWhich Bush tucker trial would Hook make Peter Pan do?\n\u201cWell, he can fly so I wouldn\u2019t give him anything that he\u2019d find easy. I\u2019d probably drop snakes on his head!\u201d\nYou play a good villain \u2013 what are you scared of?\n\u201cRats! They\u2019re horrible. I had to do the coffin challenge where I was locked in a box filled with rats. I could hear them scratching about and I could smell their breath! One even nibbled my ear (shudders).\u201d\nIf you weren\u2019t an actor what would you be?\n\u201cI\u2019m not sure because acting\u2019s what I love so that\u2019s a difficult one. Before I became an actor I had a job fitting lofts so probably that.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s on the horizon for you after panto?\n\u201cWell, there are a few things in the pipeline. It looks like next year could be a busy one for me.\u201d\n\u2022Peter Pan the pantomime has been adapted for the stage from the book by JM Barrie. It\u2019s being brought to the stage in Sunderland by Martin Dodd for UK Productions by arrangement with Great Ormond Street Hospital Children\u2019s Charity and Samuel French Limited.\n\u2022Peter Pan is at Sunderland Empire from December 14 to January 6.

        "raw_content": "Aston Villa Targeting Loan Move for Chelsea Forward Ahead of Upcoming Championship Season\nAston Villa are targeting a loan move for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham ahead of the new Championship season.\nThe 20-year-old England international spent last season on loan at Swansea and the Daily Mail report that despite Villa's interest, he would prefer to stay in Premier League this season. Abraham scored five times in 31 league appearances for the Welsh club last season, but was unable to prevent them from being relegated.\nHe scored four of those goals in the opening eight matches, earning himself a place in the England national team for friendlies against Germany and Brazil.\nThe 20-year-old started against Germany, managing an hour, as well as playing 15 minutes as a substitute against Brazil. He did not score in that time and has not featured in the England national team since.\nHaving only scored once since those opening eight games, the striker could make the step down to the Championship to rediscover his scoring touch.\nAston Villa boss Steve Bruce is looking desperately to strengthen his side's attacking options after injury problems have ravaged his side. The west Midlands club are currently without four forwards with injury as the season approaches, with Villa kicking off their campaign on Monday night against Hull.\nChris Brunskill/GettyImages\nAs such Villa are said to be looking for loan moves as the solution to their problems, rather than permanent deals, so Abraham has been identified as a potentially suitable option.\nDespite his lack of goalscoring in the Premier League, his strength, pace and movement could help him rediscovery some goalscoring form in the English second tier. He scored 23 goals in 41 league appearances for Bristol City in the Championship in the 2016/17 season.",

        "raw_content": "Which Club Makes Out Best in Higuain, Piatek, Morata Moves?\nGonzalo Higuain is with Chelsea. Krzysztof Piatek is at AC Milan. Alvaro Morata has returned to his hometown with Atletico Madrid. So which club should feel better about its outlook after riding the striker transfer carousel?\nAs time begins to run out for clubs to conduct business in the January transfer window ahead of the looming deadline, three of Europe's most established clubs have opted to for a major overhaul to their forward line for what remains of the 2018/19 campaign.\nChelsea finally signed Gonzalo Higuain on loan from Juventus, cutting short his initial loan at Milan, who have replaced the Argentine with Krzysztof Piatek from Genoa for an estimated \u20ac35m. The arrival of the Argentine at Stamford Bridge has pushed Alvaro Morata nearer to the exit door, with the Madrid native close to agreeing to a loan switch to Atletico Madrid.\nWith the trio of strikers hoping to rectify apparent issues uncovered by all three clubs, it's worth wondering: Who got the best deal between Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan?\nLooking at the form of the three strikers in regards to this season, Piatek is currently head and shoulders above Morata and Higuain.\nThe 23-year-old netted 19 goals in 21 games during his brief stay at Genoa, 13 of which have come in Serie A, including nine in his first eight games following his summer move from Cracovia Krakow for just \u20ac4m.\nA slight concern regarding the Pole currently is his goal return since his breathtaking start to life in Italy, with four goals in the 12 league games that followed hardly a record that catches the eye. However, he is impressively still only one behind Cristiano Ronaldo in the Serie A goalscoring charts despite then playing for a side only three points above the relegation.\nWhile Piatek's 2018/19 has been impressive, Higuain failed to get going during the six months he spent on loan at Milan from Juventus.\nSix goals in 15 Serie A games for the 31-year-old was well below what's expected of a striker who had 111 goals in 177 games in Italy's top tier prior to his move in the summer.\nAlvaro Morata has also disappointed in front of goal recently. Recording 15 goals across all competitions in his first season at Chelsea following his \u00a358m move in 2017, it was a campaign that saw Morata rapidly lose form and confidence, while things failed improved for him following the arrival of Maurizio Sarri, who has since preferred using Eden Hazard as a 'false nine'.\nWhile current form plays a significant factor in deciding who got the best deal, another consideration should be what situation each striker is moving into.\nHiguain's move sees the Argentine reunited with the manager that oversaw his best goalscoring season in Maurizio Sarri, after the Argentine netted an astounding 36 goals in 35 Serie A games during their only previous season together at Napoli during 2015/16 season.\nReunited with the boss. \ud83e\udd1d#HiguaIN pic.twitter.com/pudk4VKSWL\nWith Higuain arriving at Chelsea, the path for Morata to join Atletico Madrid became clear, as the Spaniard gets yet another chance to prove his enormous potential can be fulfilled at a top European side.\nLa Liga does in fact represent the Spaniard's best league in terms of his goals-to-game ratio, with his 25 goals in 63 games equating to a goal every 2.5 games, compared to one in every 4.2 games in Serie A and one in every 2.9 games in the Premier League.\nAlso, Morata, who could be replacing for Diego Costa for a second time after reports linked him with a move to China, may have finally landed at his ideal club.\nFor Piatek meanwhile, expectations from the Rossonari faithful will be hoping for the Pole to start his career at the San Siro in a similar fashion to his time at Genoa, but that's easier said than done.\nGennaro Gattuso's side scored just 28 goals in 20 Serie games this season - three more than Genoa, who are just three points above the relegation zone - averaging just 1.4 goals every league game, which is the fewest of the top eight sides in Serie A currently, highlighting Milan's need for a persistent goal threat.\nDespite the three forwards being at different stages of their careers, their latest moves could all be defining moments for them.\nHaving spent just six months playing in one of Europe's top five leagues, the jury is still out on Piatek and his time at Milan will help many determine whether the 23-year-old is the new Robert Lewandowski or is a 'flash in the pan' or a striker with long-term staying power.\nFor Morata, time appears to be running out for the 26-year-old to plant roots at one of Europe's elite, having already failed to establish himself at Real Madrid (twice), Juventus and Chelsea, although the Spaniard may finally have found a home at the Wanda Metropolitano.\nAt 31, Higuain's move to Stamford Bridge, which can be made permanent for \u00a331m at the end of the season, perhaps represents his last chance at a 'big club', and with the enormity of the challenge of playing in the Premier League awaiting him, the goal poacher will need to hit the ground running if he's to stay in west London.\nSince Gonzalo Higuain came to Europe, only four players have scored more goals in Europe's top five leagues \ud83d\udd25 pic.twitter.com/g92NQv2G4j\nOut of the deals for Morata, Piatek and Higuain, the latter's relationship, and previous form, under Sarri suggests that could be the best deal of the three, although we won't know until the end of the season at least, as the trio hope to do what they've been drafted in to do - score goals.",

While farming is still one of the primary occupations, the rural location has drawn other businesses dependent on the outdoors, including Meadow Views Growers and Honey Hill Farm. Housing in the downtown historic district features renovated historic homes next door to antique stores. One finds all kinds of homes in the New Carlisle area from modest homes to larger, new homes and condominiums.With 5,800 residents, there\u2019s plenty of time to live life to the fullest in New Carlisle.\nTen minutes north of I-70, State Routes 571 and 235 provide access to the village. The city is10 minutes from I-75. Dayton International Airport services the area and is a 20-minute drive.\nThe Springfield Regional Medical Center is located in Springfield. The hospital offers, among other amenities, an emergency center, a birthing center and a nursing school. Other hospitals are located to the south in Dayton via I-70, I-75 and I-675.\nBoth the old and the new entice shoppers with several antique stores in the downtown, while flowers, bedding plants and other garden necessities invites shoppers to Honey Hill Farm. Neighborhood retail centers and restaurants serve residents\u2019 daily needs. The city has been working diligently on improving the downtown area with newer street lighting and trees.\nNew Carlisle is home to the Sugar Isle public golf course.

        "raw_content": "Home / e liquid / Quitting Smoking The Easier Way With E Liquid\nQuitting smoking is very tough, and if you have been a smoker in the past, you will know how difficult it is. This is due to the chemical inside the cigarette called nicotine. Nicotine is highly addictive and attacks the brain\u2019s cells. This means that your body feels like it needs another hit of nicotine every so often. The heavier the smoker you are, the more your body feels like it needs nicotine. Some smokers believe that they cannot go a couple of hours without a cigarette.\nFirstly, smoking is bad for your health. The more you smoke, the more you are exposing yourself to thousands of toxins and chemicals. The more you smoke, the more you are feeling you need to smoke. This is very bad for your health and is highlighted by the fact that smoking related illnesses is still the U.K.\u2019s number one killer.\nNot only this, but smoking is bad for your lifestyle in general. If you work in an office or other environment, going for a cigarette break every hour can be detrimental to your productivity and can be a hindrance on your work life. It can also affect your social life, as well as your family because you cannot smoke around other people.\nFor the many reasons above, many people decide to quit smoking. This can be difficult because of the challenging withdrawal symptoms which every smoker experiences. This is because the body is withdrawing from the nicotine substance which can be a frustrating and long drawn out process.\nMany people try to quit smoking using nicotine replacement therapies. Nicotine replacement therapies allow you to gradually replace the nicotine in your system, such as with a nicotine gum or nicotine patch, which means that your body thinks that it has had a bit of nicotine even though it hasn\u2019t smoked.\nOne revolutionary new product which really showcases this method is the electronic cigarette. The e cig contains a substance called E liquid. E liquid contains nicotine and you can choose the nicotine strength that you would like. For the heavy smoker, they might decide to have a strong dose of nicotine in their E liquid. You can also choose the flavour of the electronic cigarette.\nMany Hollywood stars have been seen with the electronic cigarette, including Johnny Depp. It has been successful for many people because it mimics a real cigarette, so the smoker feels like they have been smoking, and they\u2019ve had a hit of the nicotine from the E liquid, but actually they have not been smoking at all. This is for many people, the healthy alternative to traditional smoking and can help you to quit \u2013 for good.\nE liquid \u2013 What Flavours Are There?",

B.D. Wong, who reprised his role as the devious scientist Dr. Henry Wu in Jurassic World, was the only familiar face in the new trilogy \u2014 until now.\nThe appearance of Jeff Goldblum in the new film has been receiving a good share of the hype for the Jurassic World sequel.

        "title": "Review: Bravest Warriors: Volume 5 \u2013 SLUG Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Review: Bravest Warriors: Volume 5\nPosted September 5, 2015 in Comic Book Reviews\nTags: Bravest Warriors: Volume 5, Breehn Burns, Cartoon Hangover, Jason Johnson, KaBOOM!, Mike Holmes\nBravest Warriors: Volume 5\nWriters: Jason Johnson, Breehn Burns\nArtist: Mike Holmes\nIn this volume of Bravest Warriors they crash land on a tropical island, butter-skate their way into millions of people\u2019s hearts, ride a space worm through the galaxy and crash a party of talking hamsters. Yes, this graphic novel is as crazy as it sounds. If you are a fellow Adventure Time lover like I am, then you will feel right at home with Bravest Warriors. Not only does it feature the same artists\u2014Mike Holmes and Ryan Pequin\u2014it\u2019s also written by Joey Comeau. Bravest Warriors is basically a more kid-friendly version of Adventure Time. It doesn\u2019t feature the hilarious adult jokes that Adventure Time seems to cleverly hide in both their cartoons and comics, yet it\u2019s just as random and off-the-wall\u2014maybe even more so.\nSpeaking of off-the-wall, while reading this volume of Bravest Warriors I imagined to myself that this is probably how a person with A.D.D. feels on a daily basis. There are a few main storylines, but there are so many random things that also happen during the story that\u2019s a little distracting. Just as I was getting comfortable with what was going on, it would take me in another direction. It starts off with Impossibear picking gas-powered beans off a tree on their ship, then it ends with them crashed on a remote tropical island with Space Chicken selling tickets to his butter-skating performance. Your attention is constantly being shifted from one idea to another, and with all the randomness thrown, in it\u2019s a little hard to follow.\nAlso, I feel like this graphic novel has way too many characters. I had a hard time keeping up with each character and felt like I was constantly being introduced to new ones. Granted, I have not read the first four graphic novels before this, but regardless, I still feel like there are too many characters in this book.\nI\u2019m not saying that I disliked Bravest Warriors due to its lack of focus and complete randomness; I\u2019m just trying to explain the overall feel of the novel because random humor is not for everyone. As I\u2019ve mentioned, I am a huge Adventure Time fan. I just feel like it\u2019s a much simpler show and graphic novel than Bravest Warriors.\nAs far as the artwork is concerned, it is clean and colorful, and a little simpler than Adventure Time. I never felt at any point during the graphic novel that there was too much dialogue in any of the cells or pages. Overall, it had a really good balance and the cells were well organized. It is definitely aimed at people of all ages.\nThis particular issue chronicles season 2 episode 10 of the Bravest Warriors television show \u201cThe Parasox Pub.\u201d The title is a reference to the future Chris that the Bravest Warriors run in to while stranded on the tropical island. He uses a \u201cparasox\u201d\u2014a pair of socks that open a space paradox into another dimension\u2014to travel through time. I have personally never watched the television show and am not sure if watching the episode would help me follow the graphic novel better or not. I\u2019m also unsure as to how closely the novel follows the episodes, but I feel like it wouldn\u2019t make much sense for the creators of the novel to copy the episode, as the people who read the novels probably watch the show as well.\nI feel like Bravest Warriors: Volume 5 would be a little hard to jump into at this point in the series, but it could be done. It makes a few references to previous comics (and kindly points you to the exact volume) that you wouldn\u2019t understand, but you can grasp the general idea. I think that younger kids would enjoy this much more than us old folks, but I still found this graphic novel entertaining. I wouldn\u2019t mind reading the previous four volumes, then coming back to this one just so I could get the references they make and understand the characters more. \u2013Nicole Stephenson",

        "title": "Toronto belatedly ends Mo's reign of error 09/15/2010",
        "raw_content": "Toronto belatedly ends Mo's reign of error\nby Paul Gardner , Sep 15, 2010\nThe longest, most drawn-out, most difficult to understand mystery in MLS has finally ended. The guys at Maple Leaf Sports up in Toronto have finally had their fill of Mo Johnston, and have given him the old heave-ho.\nAnd you have to wonder what took them so long. Johnston has been with Toronto FC since the very beginning in 2007. That Johnston should go to Toronto made a lot of sense -- his background as the man who had broken the \u201cno Catholic players\u201d barrier at the Protestant Glasgow Rangers gave him almost legendary status among Scottish fans -- of whom there were reckoned to be plenty in Toronto.\nPlus the fact that he had been a wonderful player, almost a holdover from the days when Scottish inside-forwards were renowned as technically superior creative players. Plus he had playing experience in MLS with Kansas City. Plus he had coaching experience in MLS as Bob Bradley\u2019s assistant at the MetroStars.\nOr did he? Those of us who were around that team for the three years that Johnston was there might have had some doubts about that. Nothing was ever heard from Johnston, and very little was even seen of him. Bradley ran the show, for sure.\nWhen the MetroStars fired Bradley late in the 2005 season, Johnston took over. Doubts about his coaching credentials surfaced quickly. The team did not improve, and Johnston got into a public spat with the team\u2019s No. 1 star, Amado Guevara. As for recruiting new players, Johnston rushed off to -- you guessed it -- Scotland, and came back with Peter Canero, who was signed at a salary of $143,000. Canero quickly proved to everyone that he wasn\u2019t very good. He played in only 9 games, a total of 278 minutes, which meant the MetroStars were paying him about $500 per minute on the field.\nBoth Johnston\u2019s soccer savvy and his business sense looked shaky. The MetroStars fired Johnston after a lackluster 2006 season, and Johnston quickly turned up in Toronto. Where he continued to specialize in questionable Brit signings -- Andy Welsh, Rohan Ricketts, and the aging Danny Dichio and Carl Robinson -- and produced a pretty awful team.\nWhich was when it seemed likely that he would get himself fired -- after all, the Toronto fans were turning out in their thousands and surely deserved something a lot better. But no -- far from being fired Johnston was given what was described as \u201can expanded\u201d role, and made Director of Soccer. But his Brit influence continued -- the next two coaches were both English imports, John Carver and Chris Cummins.\nIn January 2008 the Brit signings took on a ludicrous air as Johnston announced the arrival of Paul Winsper, who had been \u201clured from England\u201d where he once \u201cworked to improve the form of England star David Beckham.\u201d Winsper, said Johnston, \u201cwill make us stronger on and off the field.\u201d He didn\u2019t, and by the beginning of this season, with Toronto FC having played three MLS seasons without making the playoffs, the decidedly non-Brit Preki was brought in as coach. But Johnston still, somehow, hung on to his job.\nNot any more. And you really do have to wonder exactly what has been going through the minds of the Maple Leaf Sports boss Tom Anselmi and his partners for the past three years. He himself now admits what were evidently fundamental problems: \u201c... the team was heading in the wrong direction, but it was even bigger than that. The situation was not right, that's the best way I can describe it. In hindsight, we had the wrong two guys, and now we've got to do a real thorough search and find the right guy to lead this club, and really have a vision for where this club wants to go next, and what it needs from a total infrastructure standpoint.\u201d\nA pretty damning series of admissions. (Incidentally, it\u2019s surely OK to sympathize with Preki, brought in far too late to save a sinking ship, now dragged down with it).\nAnselmi\u2019s bio is a pretty impressive read -- from the sports business point of view. But he lists no soccer experience at all, and it ought to be obvious by now, after 16 years of experience with the old NASL, and now 15 years with MLS, that a lack of soccer knowledge is a big drawback.\nMaking key decisions, deciding on key appointments when you\u2019re operating from a solid basis of ignorance is quite likely, I\u2019d say, to mean you get \u201cthe wrong guys.\u201d But how does one account for persisting with the wrong guys when all the evidence screamed out loud that things were coming off the rails?\nAs for having \u201ca vision for where this club wants to go,\u201d that ought to be pretty simple. I assume Toronto FC would like to win things, ultimately MLS Cup. Well, you don\u2019t win MLS Cup with an imported coach. That has never happened -- unless you count Frank Yallop who, ironically, has a solid Canadian pedigree.\nThe subtleties and intricacies of soccer cannot possibly be understood by someone of Anselmi\u2019s background. In some ways, that ignorance might be a help -- there have been plenty of examples of decision-makers being unable to make decisions because they never finish weighing up the pros and cons. But in this particular case, Maple Leaf Sports has simply not been paying attention to its product, which has never been good -- certainly nowhere near good enough for their vibrant and numerous fans.\nAnselmi & Co needs to listen to some good soccer advice. But they need to ensure that it does not come from the Brit camp. They\u2019ve surely seen enough of that.\nmls, toronto fc\n3 comments about \"Toronto belatedly ends Mo's reign of error\".\nPaul Hendren, September 15, 2010 at 9:05 a.m.\nWhat soccer enthusiasts don't realize in Southern Ontario is that Mo Johnston, Preki and a host of TFC players (past and present) are represented by the same agency. Despite the competency of that agency it appears that the brain trust came from one single player agent. Player, coaching and management representation in MLS circles is problematic and smells of conflict of interest. Maybe the single entity structure is to blame? (Cansportswriting.com)\nPhilippe Fontanelli, September 15, 2010 at 9:43 a.m.\nThe USSFA should follow Toronto's exaple and can Bradley and even Gulati. We have had mediocrity and less longer than Toronto had!\nbeautiful game, September 15, 2010 at 11:47 a.m.\nAt the end of the day, it's the players who need to deliver...happy players deliver, unhappy ones don't...than of course, it depends on the qualities of individual players and concept of team play.",

        "raw_content": "Our Chicago criminal defense attorneys defended a man accused of the offense of being an Armed Habitual Criminal. This is a Class X felony, and because the defendant had two prior Class X felonies, he was facing a mandatory life sentence without parole if he was convicted.\nOn paper, the case looked bad. The police reports said that the police received a call of shots fired at the defendant's address. When they arrived, the police said they interviewed an eyewitness who told them that she saw the defendant standing on his porch, shooting at a car.\nThe police stated that they then went to our client's apartment, knocked on the door, spoke to our client, and that he consented to a search of his home. The police found a handgun in the basement of the apartment, arrested our client, and then the eyewitness identified him as the shooter.\nMy client's family hired us shortly after his arrest, and our Chicago criminal defense law firm represented him at the Preliminary Hearing. The family told us that they had photographs of our client's front door, showing that it had been kicked in. Knowing this, our Chicago criminal defense lawyer cross-examined the police officer aggressively about how he entered our client's home, and asked him about the kicked in door. The officer claimed that other officers arrived at the apartment before he did, and that one of them received the consent to search the apartment.\nWe then began our investigation. Our firm hired an experienced private investigator to interview the eyewitness. What she learned is that the witness never identified our client, and told the police a completely different version of events, with someone else being the shooter.\nNext, we talked to the upstairs neighbor. He told us that he let the police into the building, and they began to bang on our client's door. When he did not open it, they kicked the door in. He asked them what would have happened if he had not unlocked the door to the building, and the police told him that they would have kicked that door in too.\nWe also took photographs and video of the apartment and the basement. The basement was actually a common area to the building, accessible to the upstairs tenant as well as our client, not part of his residence, as the police had claimed.\nThis information gave us several defenses. First, we filed a motion to suppress evidence based on an illegal search. We had evidence that the search was illegal because of photos of the kicked in door and the neighbor's testimony. Ultimately, we won that motion, the gun was suppressed, and the case was dismissed. If the motion had been denied, we would have argued at trial that the gun could have belonged to any resident of the building and that our client had no knowledge of the firearm.\nIt was a strong case for the defense, but what made it strong was a thorough investigation by our Chicago criminal defense lawyers.",

As avid followers of Wright, we have visited numerous of his buildings and homes all over the country, and always walk away with a growing appreciation of his design sensibilities. Though he was purported to be a real \u201cS.O.B.\u201d, his designs have stood the test of time. See our list below of a few of our favorite Wright places.\nIt wasn\u2019t until we were approached by the Price Tower Arts Center in Bartlesville, OK, (more on this organization in a bit), about donating a package for their live auction in March to help with the annual fundraiser, that we realized there are connections to Frank Lloyd Wright here in the Finger Lakes, and certainly in nearby Buffalo, NY, too. We decided that we wanted to take one of our more popular packages, our Tiffany and Treasures Trail package, which highlights Louis Comfort Tiffany\u2019s legacy here in the region, and features a couple of \u201chands-on\u201d art experiences with local artists, and transform it into a Frank Lloyd Wright oriented adventure!\nOur Frank Lloyd Wright in the Finger Lakes Experience package offers the adventurous guest, two, 90-minute \u201chands-on\u201d sessions with local artisans during which you will create Wright-inspired pieces in Stained Glass and Pottery to take home to keep you inspired. You will also visit two of the local premier museums, the Corning Museum of Glass and the Johnson Museum of Art on Cornell University\u2019s campus, to see the actual Frank Lloyd windows they have in their collections. The Johnson Museum\u2019s exhibited windows are originally from the renown, Darwin Martin House in Buffalo. If your schedule allows, you can see the windows at the museum and then take an easy day trip to tour the Darwin Martin House. There\u2019s nothing like standing in one of Wright\u2019s interior spaces. You\u2019ll get some other great swag with the package as well.\nIf you want to take advantage of this great package, you can make your reservation with us directly at stayblacksheepinn.com. Or you can bid on the entire all-inclusive Travel Package that we have donated to Price Tower. In addition to the package, we have also included several night\u2019s accommodations, a Keuka Lake wine tour, and a handmade gift from the Inn to round out our donation to the great cause of maintaining and preserving Price Tower, the only Frank Lloyd Wright designed skyscraper that was ever built. You can learn more about Price Tower, \u201cThe Tree that Escaped the Crowded Forest\u201d, at pricetower.org.\nI haven\u2019t forgotten about the list of some of our favorite Frank Lloyd Wright spots, so here they are:\n\u00b7 Fallingwater, Mill Run, PA\n\u00b7 Florida Southern College, Lakeland, FL\n\u00b7 The Guggenheim, NY, NY\n\u00b7 Oak Park House and Studio, Oak Park, IL\n\u00b7 Taliesin West, Scottsdale, AZ\nWe\u2019re sure you\u2019ll find them all inspiring!\nArchitecturally yours,",

For those of you that have not been to the site where the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building was bombed on April 19, 1995, these chairs represent the 168 people that were killed in the blast. The larger chairs represent an adult and the smaller chairs represent a child. There are nine rows of chairs representing the nine floors of the building and the people that were on each floor when the bomb went off. I felt this shot really brought across the feeling of the memorial with the church steeple in the background. Take a few moments on this Sunday to reflect and remember those who are no longer with us.\nTragic Reflections\nIt was a cloudy morning in March when we visited the Oklahoma City National Memorial. There were a few visitors at the memorial, but not so many that it made taking photographs difficult. I really liked the reflections on this morning as it really made the structures at the monument stand out. There was virtually no wind to speak of so the reflecting pool was like a big mirror. Really an incredible scene for a tragic incident in American history.",

        "title": "Confirmation - STJMOD",
        "raw_content": "Strengthened by the Spirit, Called to Action\nConfirmation enriches the baptized with the strength of the Holy Spirit so that they can better witness to Christ in word and deed (Catechism of the Catholic Church [CCC], no. 1285). Anointed by the Holy Spirit at Confirmation, Christians strengthen their bond with the Church and become better equipped to carry out the Church\u2019s mission of love and service.\nAt Confirmation, our faith and membership in the Body of Christ is confirmed, or strengthened.\nIn the Rite of Baptism, we become new members of the Body of Christ, but our journey does not end there. The decision to be baptized is followed by continued growth, learning, and witness as members of the Body of Christ. Our desire to continue to grow and develop as Christians finds expression in Confirmation, when we renew our baptismal promises and receive in a new way the gift of the Holy Spirit, which strengthens our \u201cbond\u201d with the Church and its members (CCC, no. 1316, and Pope John Paul II, Redemptoris Missio [ On the Permanent Validity of the Church\u2019s Missionary Mandate ], no. 26).\nConfirmation connects us to a larger community.\nThe relationship of the bishop (who presides over the Rite of Confirmation) with the church community in a given area reminds us of our connection to the larger community of the Church, which is global. Thus, Confirmation reminds us that we belong to the Universal Church and to a local parish community (CCC, no. 1309). The sacred Chrism oil used during Confirmation points to the community\u2019s sharing of the Spirit, since the same oil is used during Baptism and to anoint bishops and priests during the Sacrament of Holy Orders. Oil for the Anointing of the Sick is also consecrated during Holy Week. The symbol of oil reminds us of the action of the Holy Spirit upon us as members in the Church family\nAt Confirmation, we receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit.\n\u200bIn the Gospels, the same Spirit that descended on Jesus during Baptism descends on the Apostles at Pentecost (CCC, nos. 1285- 1287). The readings and homily we hear at Confirmation remind us that this same Spirit is present to us today. At Confirmation, we receive diverse spiritual gifts that work together for the \u201ccommon good\u201d and \u201cthe building up of the Church, to the well-being of humanity and to the needs of the world\u201d (Pope John Paul II, Christifideles Laici [ The Vocation and the Mission of the Lay Faithful in the Church and in the World ], no. 24). At Confirmation, we pray for an increase of the gifts of the Spirit in our own lives in order to serve the cause of justice and peace in Church and world.\nThe Spirit moves us to imitate the love and service of Christ and the saints.\nIn preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation, we often perform many hours of service to help those in need. In doing so, we practice love and service in imitation of the saints whose names we often take at Confirmation. Anointed at Confirmation, we are further strengthened to live lives that give off \u201cthe aroma of Christ\u201d as did the holy saints (CCC, no. 1294). The sacred Chrism is mixed with fragrant spices precisely to symbolize this \u201caroma.\u201d The Holy Spirit pours love into our hearts so that we can become \u201cinstruments of grace\u201d in order to \u201cpour forth God\u2019s charity and to weave networks of charity\u201d in the world (Pope Benedict XVI, Caritas in Veritate [ Charity in Truth ], no. 5). The Holy Spirit \u201charmonizes\u201d our hearts with Christ\u2019s heart and moves us to love others as Christ loved when he washed the disciples\u2019 feet and gave his life for us (Pope Benedict XVI, Deus Caritas Est [ God Is Love ], no. 19).\nAt Confirmation, we recommit to participate in the Church\u2019s work and mission.\nSealing with the gift of the Spirit at Confirmation strengthens us for ongoing service in the Body of Christ in the Church and in the world. It prepares us to be active participants in the Church\u2019s mission and to \u201cbear witness to the Christian faith in words accompanied by deeds\u201d (CCC, no. 1316). Finally, the Spirit sends us as workers in the vineyard and instruments of the Holy Spirit in renewing the earth and promoting God\u2019s Kingdom of justice and peace. Thus, Confirmation is not only an anointing , but also a commissioning to live out our faith in the world . We are already called to mission by virtue of our Baptism, but at Confirmation we are endowed with gifts of the Spirit (like the Apostles in Acts 2) to be \u201cever greater witness[es] to the Gospel in the world\u201d (Pope Benedict XVI, Sacramentum Caritatis [ Sacrament of Charity ], no. 17). As disciples and witnesses to Christ in both Church and world (CCC, no. 1319), we are sent out to act on behalf of the poor and vulnerable, promoting the life and dignity of every human person.\nThe Holy Spirit inspires us to Gospel action that includes human development and work to end injustice.\nThe Holy Spirit inspires the work of evangelization, which includes work not only for all peoples\u2019 spiritual well being, but also the evangelization of systems and cultures (Pope John Paul II, Redemptoris Missio , nos. 42, 65). The Church\u2019s missionary activity includes a \u201ccommitment to peace, development and the liberation of peoples; the rights of individuals and peoples, especially those of minorities; the advancement of women and children; safeguarding the created world,\u201d and many other areas of action in the world ( Redemptoris Missio , no. 37). In addition, action inspired by the Holy Spirit calls us to \u201cbear witness to Christ by taking courageous and prophetic stands in the face of the corruption of political or economic power.\u201d The Spirit also \u201covercomes barriers and divisions of race, caste, or ideology\u201d and makes the Christian- on-mission into \u201ca sign of God\u2019s love in the world\u2014a love without exclusion\nor partiality\u201d ( Redemptoris Missio , nos. 43, 89)\nConfirmation calls us to share Christ\u2019s mission to promote life and dignity.\nThe baptized, anointed by the Holy Spirit, are incorporated into Christ, who is priest, prophet, and king, and called to share in his mission (CCC, no. 1241). We share Christ\u2019s priestly mission by giving of ourselves daily in union with Christ\u2019s supreme sacrifice on the Cross. As prophets , we announce the Kingdom of God in both word and deed and we witness to the Gospel in family, social life, and community, and in our commitment to human life and dignity. We share the kingly mission by seeking God\u2019s Kingdom of justice in the world. We do this when we overcome the kingdom of sin, give of ourselves, recognize Jesus in \u201cthe least of these\u201d (cf. Mt 25:40), and work for justice and peace. All those anointed by the Spirit at Baptism and Confirmation share Christ\u2019s mission in Luke 4:18-19: \u201cThe Spirit of the Lord is upon me, / because he has anointed me / to bring glad tidings to the poor. / He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives / and recovery of sight to the blind, / to let the oppressed go free, / and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord\u201d (see also Christifideles Laici , nos. 13-14)",

        "raw_content": "Karachi \u2013 31st Jan, 2019: Every year, the city gets its much-needed intellectual and cultural treat in the form of the annual Karachi Literature Festival (KLF). Much awaited each year by the literati and the people of Karachi, this year\u2019s edition is going to be a special Ten Year Celebration of the event. Happening on 1, 2, and 3 March 2019, at the Beach Luxury Hotel as usual, the event will mark KLF\u2019s ten successful years of being the leading literary festival of the city and spawning other such festivals celeb rating the written word in different cities across Pakistan.\nThe KLF organisers, Oxford University Press (OUP), have announced the names of the Advisory Board members who will be part of the 10th edition of the festival. The Advisory Board comprises prominent writers, poets, and literary figures including Muneeza Shamsie, Bina Shah, Iftikhar Arif, Ahmed Shah, Mujahid Barelvi, Salman Tarik Kureshi, and Michael Houlgate (Director Sindh and Balochistan, British Council).\nArshad Saeed Husain, Managing Director, OUP, while sharing his views about the upcoming festival said, \u201cFor the 10th edition of KLF, we have created an Advisory Board comprising personalities from different literary fields in order to embrace diversity and inclusion in the society. The members will oversee the festival programming and selection of speakers as well as curate various sessions. The 10th KLF will feature, not only literary works and poetry, but also the fine arts, culture, and the performing arts. Our society is youthful and most of those who throng this annual celebration are young. Therefore, KLF 2019 will have the overarching theme \u2018The Focus is Tomorrow\u2019. It will explore emerging trends, new concepts, and the impact of social media and technology on books, literature, publishing, reading, and our lives in general. The KLF Urdu Literature Prize for 2019 sponsored by Infaq Foundation will be awarded at the inauguration ceremony of the Festival.\u201d\nTalking about her long association with KLF, the literary critic, Muneeza Shamsie said, \u201cI am delighted to be a part of Advisory Board for the KLF\u2019s 10th Anniversary, which is a great milestone for our literary culture and indeed, a celebration of the written word. It is good to be with, and exchange ideas with a team, which has worked assiduously to bring this festival together. It has also been a privilege to have participated in KLF as a guest speaker, since its inception and to watch it grow and develop and inspire other literary festivals in Pakistan too.\u201d\n\u201cOver the years, KLF has successfully provided an accessible and intellectual space to the citizens of Pakistan. Through discourse and discussions, the Festival cultivates literary values, cultural diversity, and a sense of inclusion. This year is going to be no different as KLF aims to bring together not only the stalwarts of Pakistan\u2019s literary world and academia but also some of the most creative minds beyond Pakistan\u2019s border. I wish to congratulate KLF on completing its ten successful years,\u201d said the eminent Urdu poet Iftikhar Arif.\nThe first Karachi Literature Festival kicked off in 2010 and drew over 5,000 visitors. Continuing the heritage of the literary event, OUP expects a footfall of more than 200,000 at this year\u2019s KLF.\nFollowing its ten-year tradition, the festival will have free entry and will be accessible to people in an open and participatory manner. It will include vibrant literary sessions, panel discussions, talks, readings, interviews, book launches, Urdu mushaira, English poetry readings, film screenings, performing arts, and book fair. And, as usual, there will be the pleasure of BaateinMulaqateinwith leading intellectual figures and amongst all those who attend.\nPrevious articlePTCL Sponsors Nepal-Pakistan Blind Women\u2019s Cricket Series!\nNext articleGraana.Com Signs MoU With RCCI To Hold Property Expo Week!\nMedical education is recognized as the mother of education across Pakistan and whoever wants their kids to have better career, wish upon making them...",

        "raw_content": "Don Frank, left, learned that he might be retired, but he still had lots of life to share with his brother-in-law Rick.\nName: Don Frank\nCity/Town: Punta Gorda, Florida\nHospital and Location: The Christ Hospital Cincinnati, Ohio\nYes, he is my brother-in-law.\nI found out I could still donate after age 60.\nNo, wanted to donate from the start but didn\u2019t think I was eligible due to my age. The results of the blood tests showed that I was such a close match I could have been a biological brother. That was my confirmation.\nI really didn\u2019t have any concerns; everything just fell into place. When you know inside you\u2019re supposed to do something, you know everything will work out for the best.\nSome of our children were concerned but I reassured them with the data on transplants, and they adjusted.\nDon didn't have any hesitations about donating a kidney before or after his surgery.\nThe surgeon and the whole surgical team were excellent! The operation took about four hours, and there were no complications.\nThe hospital staff, nurses, doctors were very professional and friendly. I was offered various pain management options for my individual needs. I didn\u2019t have a great deal of pain, so I managed with extra strength Tylenol. The food was very good in the hospital. I began walking laps on the kidney donation floor of the hospital the first day of recovery. I spent just two days in the hospital.\nI was slightly constipated and bloated with some gas from the operation, but it wasn\u2019t long before all was back to normal. After my two-week post-op check-up, I was cleared to fly home to Florida with my wife. Within a few days home we were looking after our grandchild again. But I was very careful not to lift him or anything else over 10 pounds for six weeks or more.\nAs a precaution, I didn\u2019t drive for about four weeks total. The non-lifting part for six weeks, as a man, was annoying. I also used the special kidney pillow when sneezing and coughing as I was advised. The precautions are wise because no one wants a hernia for not following directions. I followed directions and had no complications.\nI'm retired, but my wife and I care for our grandson. After about three weeks, we were back to taking care of him.\nIt was about four months from the time I called, received the information packet and paperwork, filled out the paperwork, got the initial blood draw, and then was scheduled for the two days of testing, and finally scheduling the operation time for both of us.\nThe recuperation time for me was positively surprising. Even though my donor body was healing my energy came back fairly quickly. I was up walking laps in the hospital, and I continued to take long walks daily in my first two weeks and then after my post-op exam back in Florida. I was also active in general after the first two weeks. I did enjoy taking some naps the first two weeks after the operation.\nYes, I would definitely do it again!",

        "title": "When Artists Speak Truth... Essay \u2014 The 8th Floor",
        "raw_content": "When Artists Speak Truth\u2026 reveals how cultural producers, artists in particular, are uniquely positioned to voice critical messages that cannot otherwise be transmitted. The exhibition is presented at The 8th Floor, as a dialogical and discursive space where politically engaged artistic projects set the stage for reflection and interchange. When Artists Speak Truth\u2026 is posed as a series of questions: what happens when artists challenge the status quo, and advocate for change? Why are artists able to ask and respond to these questions? What makes art a space where radical ideas can be supported?\nPerhaps because their status is constantly shifting, artists have the social mobility and capital to question the power structures that define so much of our society. Considering that artists are in a class of their own \u2013 one that is both economically precarious and culturally rich \u2013 it is not surprising that they are aligned with activists organizing for workers\u2019 rights, immigrants\u2019 rights, and gender and racial equality.\nFrom 1967 until the 1980s, Emory Douglas was the Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party and his graphic art was featured prominently in issues of the Black Panther newspaper. Included in the exhibition is his illustration for the September 21, 1974 issue, which depicts the hand of corporate power\u2013comprised of The Chase Manhattan Bank, Pan Am, Gulf, PepsiCo, Chevron, Ford, and IBM, among others \u2013 pulling the strings of President Gerald Ford, \u201cthe 38th Puppet of the United States.\u201d Sam Durant\u2019s Emory Douglas Suite (You pig) is part of a larger series completed in 2004 in which he adapts Douglas\u2019 depictions of police aggression. Durant\u2019s works engage a variety of social, political, and cultural issues exploring that which connects culture to politics, and where activism is situated between the two. Durant\u2019s consideration of the cultural contributions of Emory Douglas to the Black Panther Party and his broader exploration of the aesthetics of protest is prescient in relation to dynamics that have recently emerged between police departments, activist groups, and communities of color across the country.\nDrawing on the surreal collage and graphic design sensibility of Emory Douglas, Favianna Rodriguez\u2019s political posters highlight causes such as immigrants\u2019 rights, a woman\u2019s right to choose, and voters\u2019 rights with slogans like \u201cI\u2019m a slut. I vote. So does everyone I sleep with\u2026Keep ur government off my pussy.\u201d Many of Rodriguez\u2019s recent posters have centered on the poetic symbol of the butterfly, which in her work is a reminder that living beings have the right to move freely, embodying the determination of immigrants who come to the United States in search of their dreams.\nAs part of the exhibition, artist Jaro Varga has created an immersive site-specific installation at The 8th Floor. Varga, using text and archives, explore how words can accumulate anti-institutional power. Library, an ongoing installation series by Varga, first realized in 2008, is a participatory work in which gallery visitors are encouraged to write book titles directly onto the wall of a room-sized print depicting the stacks of a library. The project has a number of implications. It questions the relevance of physical books and their eventual obsolescence, while also offering the temporary community surrounding the exhibition a chance to define the books entered into this conceptual library, giving visibility to under-recognized literary contributions. Varga\u2019s project ultimately builds awareness of the collective input needed to demonstrate a representative institutional knowledge, creating a cognitive map of the gallery\u2019s visitors. Visual protest turns vocal in Yoan Capote\u2019s Dialogusfobia (Un Nudo en la Garganta), 2011, the subtitle of which translates to \u201cA Lump in the Throat,\u201d and is inspired by Edvard Munch\u2019s The Scream, 1893. Both Munch and Capote\u2019s artworks capture the tension felt in the throat leading up to \u2013 and after \u2013 a scream. With its double megaphone structure, Dialogusfobia \u2013 an imagined word translating to \u2018fear of dialogue\u2019 \u2013 reflects how free expression has been suppressed in Cuban society, forcing some to speak from both sides of the mouth, while driving others to speak twice as loud, twice as much. The bundles of dynamite in Capote\u2019s Charge (Miraculous Static), 2013\u20132015, acknowledge the pent-up frustration felt by those whose voices are stifled, \u2018miraculous static\u2019 alluding to the quiet before the explosion.\nInstead of proffering an opinion, or subjective viewpoint, Shimon Attie\u2019s Double Blind (Israeli and Palestinian Declarations of Independence), 2012 places the Declarations of Independence of Israel and Palestine side by side in braille, embossed on black Somerset paper. Double Blind is a reminder that the aspirations for independence can be felt, but not seen, as propaganda on both sides of what became the Palestinian question \u2013 bound up in the state of Israel\u2019s response to the Jewish question \u2013 obscures the human rights of two historically intertwined nations. The notion of \u2018the Other\u2019 is intrinsic to the Vanilla Nightmare series, where Adrian Piper makes the racial fears and fantasies of white figures featured in ads and articles in The New York Times horrifically visible, by drawing charcoal caricatures of racialized stereotypes onto images of white culture. In Vanilla Nightmare #14, Piper overlays a ghoulish African American figure onto the political pages featuring then President Ronald Reagan, representative William H. Gray, Senator Lowell P. Weicker Jr., Senator Ted Kennedy, and impeached United States District Judge Harry E. Claiborne. Vanilla Nightmare #17 features an ad for B. Altman\u2019s department store, Piper\u2019s intervention depicts an Amazonian female figure holding up the two white men in her fists like an offering.\nFollowing on from Piper, news of the week, 1969, by Sister Corita Kent, combines the plan of a slave ship with poetry, newspaper, and a Newsweek magazine cover as commentary on inhumanity. Her interest in pacifism and human rights are expressed through a collage of text and image that describe the conditions in which slaves were brought to America with quotes from Walt Whitman\u2019s Leaves of Grass. These disparate elements combine to express the feeling of powerlessness in the face of suffering on a massive scale. Whitman wrote, \u201cI do not ask the wounded person how he feels \u2013 I myself become the wounded person; My hurt turns livid upon me as I lean on a cane and observe.\u201d As a Catholic nun, Sister Corita faced unusual barriers that most artists during this period of American art did not encounter. Her vows of poverty, chastity, and most importantly, obedience, meant that being overtly political would have been highly problematic in her vocation, but may also have driven her choice and appropriation of texts by others within her political posters.\nFelix Gonzalez-Torres\u2019 printed artworks enable an endlessly reproducible process of gifting. His \u201cUntitled\u201d (NRA \u2013 National Rifle Association), 1990, is one of many stacked pieces, which are meant to circulate beyond the gallery as visitors may choose to take a print with them. In an interview with Gonzalez-Torres, artist Tim Rollins described the stacks of prints as \u201can accumulation of frames from a film.\u201d1 Given the politics surrounding gun control, the frames of this symbolic film continue to repeat in a morbid cycle. The stack of red paper, printed with a black-framed edge, a minimalist version of the outline of a body at a crime scene, becomes a stand-in for the loss of lives that the National Rifle Association permits through its advocacy of gun ownership.\n\u201cAsk a few simple questions to define aesthetics: whose aesthetics? at what historical time? under what circumstances? for what purposes? and who is deciding quality, etc? Then you realize suddenly and very quickly that aesthetic choices are politics.\u201d \u2014Felix Gonzalez-Torres in conversation with artist Tim Rollins 2\nBuilding on Gonzalez-Torres\u2019 questions about the political nature of aesthetics, it\u2019s worth considering what happens when political gestures become aestheticized. Do they lose their meaning? Perhaps it depends on the artist and artworks in question. Mel Chin has long engaged political processes in his practice, but he is equally known for his conceptually rigorous transformation of objects. Chin\u2019s Cross for the Unforgiven, 2002, is a Maltese cross \u2013 a symbol of the Crusades \u2013 constructed from eight AK-47s welded together into a symbol of brutal violence and redemption. With its capacity to fire six hundred rounds of ammunition per minute, the AK-47 is associated with resistance movements opposed to Western hegemonic power. Night Rap (1993) is also equipped with contradictory utility: a police officer\u2019s billy club retrofitted as a microphone, creating a speaker\u2019s corner within the environment of the exhibition.\nACT UP\u2019s Silence = Death (1986) expands on the pink triangle that emerged in the 1970s as a symbol used by gay rights activists. The pro-gay image inverted the Nazi party\u2019s upside-down pink triangle, which served as a badge for identifying homosexuals during World War II and the Holocaust, similar to the yellow Star of David that Jews were forced to wear. In the gay rights movement, the pink triangle transforms the Nazi-imposed symbol of humiliation to one of unity and resistance. In 1987, six gay activists \u2013 Avram Finklestein, Brian Howard, Oliver Johnston, Charles Kreloff, Chris Lione, and Jorge Soccaras \u2013 used the Silence = Death image in a poster campaign to draw parallels between the Holocaust and the AIDS crisis, asserting that \u201csilence about the oppression and annihilation of gay people, then and now, must be broken as a matter of survival.\u201d The activists who conceived this campaign later joined ACT UP, offering the protest group the Silence = Death logo, which is a forerunner to \u2018Action = Life\u2019 and \u2018Ignorance = Fear\u2019.3\n\u201cI remember one of our weekly meetings where we found ourselves all looking at each other. There was a shared thought balloon over all of us at that moment\u2026 wondering who was going to be the first to go. It was tabled with a bit of a nervous laugh but we knew that it could\u2019ve been any one of us. Oliver Johnston is the only member from our group who has not survived. It\u2019s been nearly 15 years but Oliver is thought of and missed bythose that loved him always.\u201d \u2014Brian Howard4\nAndrea Bowers highlights excluded groups in her practice, often invoking American history, contemporary political issues, and protest, taking \u2018Action = Life\u2019 to heart. In what appears to be a more directly aesthetic approach, Bowers\u2019 Workers\u2019 Rights Posters (2013) archive a wide array of political movements, from freedom of expression to workers\u2019 rights and feminism. Posters from this series were presented at Frieze Art Fair in 2013, echoing a concurrent protest of the fair by art handlers and installers, many of them artists, who called for better labor practices, exposing the hiring of non-union, out of state labor for the fair\u2019s production. Bowers added to the protest from inside the fair, creating new posters such as, \u201cDon\u2019t Frieze out New York workers.\u201d5 Also tied to real world political movements, Save Our Last Wild Places Tree Sitting Love Seat for Forest Defense (2012) is a love seat made in collaboration with an Earth First! activist (who cannot be named for legal reasons) known to tree sit for up to a year at a time, relying on his knotmaking skills for survival. The recycled wood sculpture is a fantastic version of actual seats used by tree sitters. Bowers\u2019 involvement in tree-sitting activism has led to jail time and probation. With famed tree sitter and activist John Quigley, she has created non-violent civil disobedience training videos for environmental activists.\nEdgar Heap of Birds\u2019 Nuance of Sky/Words Are Open (2012) from his ongoing mono-print series Dead Indian Stories face off with past and present stories of Native American communities across the United States. Heap of Birds\u2019 text based public artworks Native Hosts have been deployed since the 1980s to question the ongoing occupation of Native American land throughout United States history. His more recent series Dead Indian Stories synthesize politics and poetry into a six-word poetic structure resulting in prints comprised of phrases like:\nNATIVE IS PAIN DONE IN BROWNS\nFIRST LIGHT IN THIS IS BEING\nDEEDS NOT DEMANDS SPIRIT OUT SPHERE\nINDIO FACE DOWN NO HUMAN JUSTICE\nThrough a research-based process, Matthew Buckingham also addresses the politics of Native land ownership, as he looks to the history and projected erosion of Mount Rushmore with his 2002 project The Six Grandfathers, Paha Sapa, in the Year 502,002 C.E. He questions the current perception and geologic future of the monument, which hosts portraits of founding fathers George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln, carved into land stolen from Sioux Indians by an artist who was an active member of the Ku Klux Klan.\nOther artists in the exhibition generate new forms of commemoration and portraiture of both political leaders and movements. Central to Hew Locke\u2019s Natives and Colonialists series are questions about how history is constructed and how politicians are posthumously remembered. Locke\u2019s painted photographs revisit a number of public monuments that depict victorious colonial figures. In Churchill (New Look Purple), 2008, we see the state\u2019s interpretation of Churchill, once the British Secretary of State for the Colonies and known for his contributions to World War ll. Through an artistic intervention, or rather, a defacement of the image of this monument, Locke exposes an alternate history of the political system Churchill upheld and the negative impact it had on colonial life. Locke\u2019s skeletal forms cover the face and body of the politician, an open-ended reference to the vastly different perception of British political figures within the colonies. Born in the UK, Locke\u2019s family is of African descent, originally from Guyana, a former colony of Britain.\nSimilar to Locke, artists Rico Gatson, Dread Scott, and Andres Serrano also create alternative political portraits. Gatson\u2019s graphic representations of Nina Simone, Gil Scott- Heron, James Baldwin, and Amiri Baraka (2014-2015) are expressions of the spiritual power that emanates from and is attributed to radical artists and thinkers. Gatson\u2019s bold use of lines radiate outwards from the collaged images of the four artists, conveying the reverence held for these individuals who through their work spoke truth, activating the ideals that defined their lives. Paintings from Dread Scott\u2019s Revolutionary Archive (2010-2012) draw on vintage photographs from the arc of communist revolution and interconnected moments of collective political engagement like the Paris Commune, the Russian Revolution and the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Scott\u2019s paintings incorporate several key photographs: communards from 1871 standing around a monument of Napoleon Bonaparte they had just toppled; a 1919 crowd of Soviet peasants assembled around a gramophone brought by train with the latest news from Petrograd; and images of university walls in Beijing in 1967 covered with handmade \u201cbig character posters\u201d arguing for their respective authors\u2019 views. They constitute an archive of contested, suppressed, and in some cases, obscured histories. The series focuses on imagery produced by artists that enabled the exchange of ideas aimed towards revolutionary transformation. In Red Wedge Storming the Winter Palace, Scott incorporates a film still shot by Sergei Eisenstein, which has become accepted by some, in error, as the historical image of this event. Revolutionary Archive re-examines the expansive history of 19th and 20th Century revolutions, demonstrating how artists help shape history through image-making.\nCuba has a long tradition of politically engaged art, often created in the service of state-sponsored institutions. In spite of Cuba\u2019s relative isolation following its revolution, artists such as Adigio Benitez, F\u00e9lix Beltr\u00e1n, Raul Mart\u00ednez, Ren\u00e9 Mederos, and Alfredo Rostgaard have continued to reflect on political movements within and outside the country. The graphic elements of their work visually articulate the arts of persuasion and indoctrination. Their designs primarily promoted pro-revolutionary ideals and expressed the productive potential of collective effort, with imagery that was more satirical than explicit.\nWhile Raul Mart\u00ednez\u2019s work is associated with Pop art and aesthetically akin to Favianna Rodriguez and Emory Douglas, his monochromatic depiction of Jose Mart\u00ed, affectionately known as \u201cthe apostle\u201d by Cubans, has immense gravitas. A poet and writer, Marti\u2019s texts about democracy, freedom, and justice were important in galvanizing the Cuban \u00e9migr\u00e9 population in support of the 1895 Colonial Revolution, when he was in exile. As Cuban art historian Corina Matamoros explains, \u201cMart\u00ednez changed the point of view of Pop art to focus it on popular Cuban culture: a culture not based on consumption or mass media, but affirmed in the exuberant social transformation brought by the 1959 Revolution.\u201d6 In other words, he was able to subvert pop culture to create a singular iconography of contemporary Cuban history.7\nAdigio Benitez\u2019s Untitled (1972) is a portrait of Ernesto \u201cChe\u201d Guevara, one of the leaders of the Cuban Revolution, whose image is the most recognizable symbol of the cause. The Cuban government exported the idea of Che, a figure who represented a desire for freedom and independence, throughout Latin America. For this reason, Benitez depicts Che with a beard in the shape of the region. On behalf of the Committee for the Liberation of Angela Davis, F\u00e9lix Beltr\u00e1n designed Cuba Libertad para Angela Davis (\u201cFreedom for Angela Davis\u201d) in 1971. Beltr\u00e1n\u2019s graphic portrait was a call for Davis\u2019 release from prison after her arrest for conspiracy in the takeover of a Marin County courtroom in 1970. Her protest was an effort to free her imprisoned partner George Jackson who was a member of the Soledad Brothers, a subset of the Black Panthers. Beltr\u00e1n created this poster for the propaganda department of the Communist Party of Cuba.\nDuring the Vietnam War, Cuba\u2019s Communist Party was also concerned with the plight of the Vietnamese. Alfredo Rostgaard\u2019s silkscreen, Hanoi Martes 13 (\u201cHanoi, March 13\u201d), 1968 was created as the promotional poster for a Cuban film about the United States\u2019 bombing of Hanoi. The documentary attempts to implicate United States President Lyndon Johnson with the conditions imposed on the Vietnamese. Footage of the population are interspersed with clips of the bombings and casualties of the war. Rostgaard\u2019s print places Johnson\u2019s face on the warheads of two missiles. Similarly sardonic is a print created by Luis Balaguer for Jornada continental de apoyo a Viet Nam, Cambodia y Laos, 15 a 21 de octubre (\u201cInternational Day in Support of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, October 15\u201321\u201d) in 1969. This anti-Nixon poster shows a grinning, red-eyed President, with an image of the 1968 My Lai Massacre emblazoned at the crown of his head.\nThe silkscreens of artist Ren\u00e9 Mederos are more illustrative than ironic, representing Cubans fighting for revolution. Three prints by Mederos are part of a portfolio of illustrations, produced by the Commission of Revolutionary Orientation of the Communist Party, celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the 1953 attack on the Moncada Barracks in Santiago de Cuba. In Autor Intelectual (\u201cIntellectual Author\u201d), 1973 we see a different, more triumphant rendering of Jose Mart\u00ed, the national hero of Cuba, while Los Martires (\u201cThe Martyrs\u201d), 1973 depicts the martyrs and young revolutionaries who died during the 1953 attack.\nAndres Serrano\u2019s Cuba (Picture of Fidel), 2012 was shot on the artist\u2019s first trip to the island for an investigative photography project, part of the Havana Biennial in 2013. His relationship to Cuba is both formative and illusive: his mother spent her childhood there, eventually leaving for New York City, where Serrano was raised. On this trip he planned to photograph Fidel Castro, among other leaders. Unable to meet with the former president himself, the artist photographed many members of the Castro family, including Mariela, who is an activist for gay rights and the daughter of Raul Castro. Serrano shot 700 rolls of film over six weeks, gaining access to domestic spaces, such as the bedroom pictured, where a portrait of Fidel Castro is pinned to the wall above the bed.\nIn the context of electoral politics, contemporary artists have often unofficially played the role of political critic. Los Angeles-based conceptual artist Charles Gaines\u2019 recent series Notes on Social Justice is comprised of large-scale drawings of musical scores from songs quoting artistic and political manifestos. Culling from sources as varied as Immanuel Kant, the Black Panthers, and Dada artist Hugo Ball, Gaines inserts texts into selected songs from the American Civil War to the mid-twentieth century. Notes on Social Justice: Our Country Right or Wrong, (1861), 2014 implicates our country\u2019s political system, just as the primaries will soon determine which candidates take the lead the upcoming presidential election. Flashback to the 1992 presidential election, the Guerrilla Girls (est. 1985) created Republicans Do Believe In A Woman\u2019s Right To Control Her Own Body (1992) for the Republican Convention in Houston Texas. The poster lists examples of the Republican party\u2019s understanding of women\u2019s rights (to control their own bodies): Nancy Reagan\u2019s dyed hair and make-up; plastic surgery such as nose jobs, facelifts, breast implants, and liposuction; and more violent forms of control including anorexia, foot binding, and clitorectomies. Republicans Do Believe in a Woman\u2019s Right\u2026 intentionally omits the elephant in the room \u2013 abortion rights \u2013 which were hotly contested at the time.\nWhat about a woman\u2019s right to marry a woman? Same sex marriage was an important issue in the current presidential term, yet Dyke Action Machine questions the prospect of gay marriage as the final frontier:\n\u201cIs it worth being boring for a blender?\nGay Marriage \u2013 You might as well be straight.\u201d\nFounded in 1991 by Carrie Moyer and Sue Schaffner, Dyke Action Machine expresses the lesbian community\u2019s ambivalence towards the gay movement\u2019s push for same-sex marriage and parenthood, in other words, heteronormative ideals as the end-goal. Their poster Gay Marriage: You Might As Well Be Straight (1997), functions as an aspirational advertisement, offering lesbians what they have been denied by the dominant culture: power, inclusion, and recognition. Taking the fantasy of the wedding industry to an extreme, Dyke Action Machine designed a poster of a lesbian couple in bridal gear.\nBest known for his HOPE poster for Barack Obama\u2019s 2008 presidential campaign, Shepard Fairey designed Sedation Pill (2013), inspired by the title of the Public Enemy album \u201cIt Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back.\u201d The print calls out the public\u2019s indifference and complacency towards political issues he sees as the result of being \u201chypnotized by conspicuous consumption, social media, entertainment, and self-medication.\u201d Fairey acknowledges these forms of escapism and sedation are comforting, but considers the resulting effects of disengagement leading to disempowerment to be a vicious circle that needs to be broken.\nSometimes a call for mindfulness is what is needed to break this cycle of passivity. Famous for his song Give Peace a Chance, John Lennon and Yoko Ono were both deeply concerned with promoting peace during the Vietnam War. Their 1969 poster, newspaper, and billboard campaign was originally envisioned with the words Peace Declared. As the Vietnam War raged on, the American death toll had reached 40,000. The anti-war movement was also at its height: on November 15, 1969, 250,000 people marched in Washington D.C. in the largest anti-war demonstration in the nation\u2019s history. Ono and Lennon planned their peace campaign as a holiday greeting throughout the world. What began with the rallying cry Peace Declared ultimately became WAR IS OVER! (if you want it), 1969. In 2009, the message was revived in New York City by the Art Production Fund, installing the mantra on top of 160 taxis. This time, WAR IS OVER was aimed at the war in Afghanistan and Iraq.\nMore than thirty years later after Ono and Lennon\u2019s anti-war crusade, following the attacks on the World Trade Center, artist Nancy Burson produced a meditative poster project in response to 9/11, specifically for the neighborhood surrounding it. Burson\u2019s Focus on Peace (2002) was produced by the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council (LMCC) in collaboration with Creative Time. LMCC had been long associated with the WTC and became the cultural organization most identified with the 9/11 attacks, with its artist residency in the World Trade Center, and its work to help artists and arts groups find ways to continue their work in lower Manhattan. Creative Time also organized the Towers of Light public artwork that annually commemorates those whose lives were lost in the destruction of the Twin Towers. For the one year anniversary of 9/11, Nancy Burson sensitively responded to this loss by distributing 30,000 postcards and 7,000 posters with the words \u201cFocus on Peace,\u201d giving a grieving community a positive focal point.\nSince 9/11, the dynamics of New York City have changed considerably. From new construction and increased security bollards that surround outdoor areas of public and private buildings, to heightened security in buildings housing corporate and civic power, immigrant and lower income communities face the most difficulty accessing public services for their families. Stop-and-frisk policing has had the most significant impact on immigrants and communities of color, especially youth. In recognition of these barriers to mobility in the city, the current mayoral administration under Mayor Bill de Blasio has emphasized greater accessibility to public services and resources and more support for at-risk families and youth. To this end, the New York City Mayor\u2019s Office of Immigrant Affairs has introduced the NYCID, a municipal ID card that gives all residents of the city a much needed form of government identification, which for many new New Yorkers has been illusive, preventing their ability to establish themselves in the city. In the summer of 2015, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs announced a pilot residency program for artists within a small number of city agencies including the Mayors Office for Immigrant Affairs. Artist Tania Bruguera was selected for this first residency based on her work in Corona, Queens where she established a community space and project called Immigrant Movement International. Bruguera\u2019s contribution to the exhibition, /THE FRANCIS EFFECT (2014) is a durational, performative campaign using the slogan \u201cDignity has no Nationality,\u201d which aims to challenge public perceptions of immigration. The campaign involves letter-writing and collecting signatures on postcards addressed to Pope Francis in support of his compassionate stance towards immigrants who face challenges in their search for a better life and a safer home.\nThe idea of engaging an artist to help implement the NYCID was proposed by the Department of Cultural Affairs\u2019 Commissioner Tom Finkelpearl to build trust between local immigrant communities and city government. It is unclear how this experimental approach will unfold, but it gives the city an opportunity to explore how artists\u2019 specialized knowledge of social and political engagement can contribute to a sense of increased safety and richer cultural resources at a time when inequity is at an all time high. This experiment in cultural-political collaboration proposes that we trust artists for their commitment to speaking from a place of truth. When artists speak, it\u2019s time to listen.\nRollins, Tim, Susan Cahan, and Jan Avgikos. Felix Gonzalez-Torres.

        "raw_content": "When it comes to relationships, no one likes to fight. We like the lovey-dovey phase. We want the honeymoon to last forever. But that\u2019s not realistic.Fighting in relationships normal. Fighting with your significant other is normal. The truth is, big or small, every couple has arguments or disagreements. While it is unhealthy for your entire relationship to be argumentative, it is quite normal to fight with your partner. Here are the pros and cons of fighting with your significant other.\nFighting With Your Significant Other\nIt shows you\u2019re passionate. Love and passion that you feel for your significant other can sometimes manifest itself into a disagreement. Also, if you are passionate about whatever you are arguing about, you can end up fighting over something that would seem trivial to someone on the outside looking in.\nIt shows you care. If you don\u2019t care enough to give your opinion and speak up in your relationship, then you probably shouldn\u2019t be together. But if you are able to respectfully share your thoughts and ideas, even if they\u2019re different from your partner\u2019s, that at least means you care. And if you push them and challenge them to do certain things, that means you care enough to see them be successful and go to the next level.\nYou are communicating effectively. People who don\u2019t fight at all are oftentimes holding back their true feelings. Having disagreements and being able to problem-solve and work through things together will allow your relationship to grow and mature.\nFighting too much. Fighting is normal. But fighting all the time is not. If you find yourself fighting all the time about every little thing, it may be time to see a couple\u2019s therapist and talk through your issues with someone else.\nArguing about nothing. If you find yourselves going in circles just arguing for the sake of arguing, you\u2019ve probably got a real problem on your hands. It\u2019s one thing to have a disagreement, it\u2019s quite another to just pick a fight.\nHitting below the belt. One thing you should never do is \u201chit below the belt\u201d. The person you love and chose to share your life with should be a place of refuge. They should not be the one bringing up hurtful things intentionally. Don\u2019t ever hit, curse at, or say something intentionally hurtful to your partner.\nIt is okay to fight with your partner, just remember to always fight fair! And always work through it together and make up!\nRelated Topics:arguing, dating, fighting, Love, Marriage, Relationships",

Andreon Michael)\u201d [Prod. by Lucyclubhouse]\nEphesians 6:12-13 reminds us that \u201cour struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.\u201d\nWe all have battles to fight whether the attack is physical, mental, or spiritual. And at times we get worn down from the constant combat. But the Bible tells us that our battles, though they appear to be physical in nature, are much deeper in origin, and we need to look past the people involved to go beneath the surface where the true attack is rooted. Taking on the full armor of God means embracing the fight and standing your ground knowing that you\u2019re equipped for victory.\nThe song Fight Club is a musical call to action. The war can\u2019t be won if the solders aren\u2019t willing to suit up for battle. In this composition, Sivion brings his signature \u201cwisdom-charged\u201d artistry with strong help from his son Andreon Michael, who contributes a powerful rap verse, alongside his daughter Lucyclubhouse, who brings rhythmically-unique production as the perfect backdrop to this meaningful record.

        "raw_content": "The nine in your birth date\nCount the nines in your date of birth (including all the numbers in the year). The numerologist, Eleonore Jacobi, will tell you what the nines mean!\nWe, who were born in the last century, all have a nine in our date of birth, and therefore a corresponding degree of analytical competence. We are, however, so used to it that we don\u2019t even see it as anything exceptional. But the nine is the number of seekers of the truth, who when in search of something, won\u2019t stop until they\u2019ve found it. You should try to make use of your need for clarity to improve levels of understanding within your immediate environment. You have a strong sense of responsibility, both towards yourself and those around you.\n2 or more nines\nThe number nine represents analytical thinking, here it\u2019s all about your head. Many people with multiple nines enjoy working with figures, which is an appropriate use of these talents. Intellectual challenges are essential for you. Some people with multiple nines can assess the root of a problem so quickly that it\u2019s almost unnerving. What you\u2019re not good at is accepting that there might be other equally valid ways of problem solving. When you don\u2019t make sufficient use of the intellectual energy of the multiple nines you can find yourself suffering from dissatisfaction, obstinacy and egoism.\nChildren, who don\u2019t have the chance to use their intellectual energy and are limited to a more practical form of creativity and can become very stubborn and withdrawn as a result. In relationships you can be very loving and responsible, but you aren\u2019t always easy, due to your habit of always needing to get the bottom of any problem that crops up. You are then like a Sherlock Holmes who won\u2019t rest until you\u2019ve found out the information that you want. You have a tendency to talk at length about your own problems without really listening to what your partner has to say. When the number nine is present in either your day or month of birth you have a particularly strong sense of responsibility that you should be careful to use not only in other peoples\u2019 interests, but also in your own.\nAbsence of nine\nAll of us from the last century have the capacity to think analytically. Without a nine, this isn\u2019t the case. You have more difficulties seeing connections in the way that we\u2019ve been used to. You trust your instinct more than your rational thinking, and new priorities appear in your life. People without a nine in their date of birth will allow themselves more time to think things over and there will be less emphasis put on instant problem solving. There will be a more integrated approach to problem solving, where intuitive energy can be harnessed and used. Through the energy of the number two from the twenty-first century, the future trend will move away from a purely mechanical and technical research to a more holistic approach looking at the fundamental issues of life. Gradually, another way of looking at the world will appear, since these people will not be so analytically focussed as those influenced by the more egoistic nine.",

        "raw_content": "Andr\u00e9 Simon Awards: \u2018Chianti Classico\u2019\n16th January, 2017 by db_staff\nThe following extract is taken from \u2018Chianti Classico: The Search for Tuscany\u2019s Noblest Wine\u2018 by Bill Nesto MW and Frances di Savino. Published by UC Press it is one of the drinks books shortlisted in this year\u2019s Andr\u00e9 Simon Awards.\nGiulio Gambelli at Tenuta di Bibbiano, Castellina in Chianti, in 2000. Photograph by Bill Nesto.\n\u201cOur interest in Giulio Gambelli arose from our search for true Chianti. It was the late 1990s, and I was looking for something more than the fashion-driven flavors of the Chianti Classicos that I was tasting\u2026. Who was Gambelli?\n\u201cHe was known as a maestro assaggiatore, another name for a palatista, a master wine taster, someone who could taste a wine blind and know its condition, its varietal makeup, and its origin. I learned that chemists calibrated their machines according to his palate\u2026. I met Gambelli in the fall of 1994. He was in the cellar of Lilliano. He wore a fedora hat and a long coat. He did not speak English, and at the time, I could not understand or speak Italian. So we talked with our eyes, facial expressions, and gestures.\n\u201cOnce he started taking me from barrel to barrel, I quickly understood that he knew the wines as if they were his children. The barrels had holes for sampling wine that were sealed with wax. He pushed a feather into the wax, pulled it out, put a glass at the puncture point, let wine drain into it, and then sealed the hole with the warmth of his finger. I had never seen this done before and never saw it again.\n\u201cOver the years, I accompanied Gambelli to visit several of his clients. I learned that he was hard of hearing. When I returned to Lilliano about a decade after my first visit, I wanted to show him that I had begun to learn Italian. He told me through Stefano Porcinai, who accompanied us that day, that he had just returned from a funeral of one of his relatives, someone very close. I meant to say \u201cMi dispiace\u201c (I am sorry), but instead \u201cMi piace\u201d (I like it) came out. He smiled and thanked me. If he did not hear the words of men, he seemed to understand the speech of their hearts. He understood wine in a similar way.\u201d\nThe Andr\u00e9 Simon Awards were founded in 1978 to recognise the achievements of food and drink writers. It is the longest running award of its kind. Previous winners have included: Elizabeth David and Rosemary Hume (the very first winners), Michel Roux, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Nigel Slater and Rick Stein. Last year\u2019s drinks book winner was Suzanne Mustachich for \u2018Thirsty Dragon\u2019. The awards website can be found here.",

        "raw_content": "Brazil (1985): A Cut Above the Rest\nPosted on August 21, 2015 October 20, 2018 by Katie Doyle\nAs it was Robert De Niro\u2019s 72nd birthday a few days ago, now seems the perfect time to reflect on some of the triumphs of his career, of which there are many. But, for me, one his greatest contributions was deciding to be in this absolute beaut of a film:\n\u201cBRAAAAZIIIIIIIIL,\nAnd softly murmured \u201csomeday soon\u201d\nWe kissed and clung together.\nThis is the theme of Terry Gilliam\u2019s 1985 feature film which is named after the song \u2013 Brazil. I am extremely happy to be finally writing about this movie as it is one of my absolute favourites and I hope I can do it justice.\nOkay, so why do I have my knickers in a twist over this film? Why do I think it is so great? Well, I\u2019ll start off with a brief outline of the plot: The movie is set \u201csomewhere in the 20th century\u201d (a.k.a the present), in a totalitarian bureaucratic state that has been waging a campaign against guerrillas for 13 years. An arrest warrant is made for one of the supposed Terrorists, Mr A. Tuttle (Robert De Niro), but through unfortunate circumstances and human error, it is a Mr Buttle that is in fact arrested and is unintentionally killed during \u201cInformation Retrieval\u201d as a result. It is Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce), a middling level clerk that is dragged into the whole ghastly matter so that he can rectify an accounting error; for you see, in this world, when you\u2019re under arrest you are actually charged for the time, energy and resources spent on your\u2026 uhm\u2026 \u201cinformation retrieval\u201d\u2026 and as Mr Buttle was wrongly arrested he is due some compensation, but being dead can\u2019t claim it.\nSam is seemingly content in his insignificant job \u2013 it is plain to see that he is good at it \u2013 and he enjoys not being noticed (which you can\u2019t blame him for as it seems the world he lives in is frighteningly Orwellian). However, it is shown that Sam\u2019s aspirations are far more than his little government job or the aspirations offered by his contemporaries and peers: Sam indulges in the most fantastical dreams in which he is a superhuman flying through beautiful lush landscapes and is in love with a beautiful mystery woman. It is during his investigations into the Tuttle/Buttle matter that he meets Jill Layton (Kim Greist), a neighbour of The Buttles who witnessed the arrest and is earnestly searching for answers and justice but is being smothered by red tape. To Sam\u2019s absolute astonishment, she is the double of Sam\u2019s dream-girl. Sam is besotted and thus climbs further up the political ladder so he can find out who the actual dream girl is; unbeknownst of the terrible consequences of the chaos he leaves in his wake, especially as the government suspects Jill of being an accomplice of Tuttle.\nFrom the plot you would have guessed that this is some dystopian tale. Today, it\u2019s the bread and butter of Hollywood drama with the likes of \u201cThe Hunger Games\u201d, \u201cMaze Runner\u201d and \u201cInsurgent/Divergent\u201d being heavily aimed at a teenage audience; and it has been a popular film genre throughout the history of cinema with the likes of \u201cMetropolis\u201d (1927), \u201cBladerunner\u201d (1982) and \u201cPlanet of the Apes\u201d (1968). Most aforementioned movies are critically acclaimed and very popular, so while there is nothing wrong with the actual craft of these movies I still believe Brazil is a cut above the rest as far as dystopian nightmares go. And why do I think this? Because unlike the other hyper-futuristic flicks with bizarre and fantastical circumstances, Brazil is rooted in real evils that the audience can identify with. It\u2019s like how, in Harry Potter, Voldemort is undeniably an evil and frightening character, but I\u2019d bet you anything that you didn\u2019t hate him nearly as much as you did Professor Umbridge \u2013 I wanted to rip her eyes out. This is because it\u2019s very unlikely that your life and world is gonna be threatened by a megalomaniac wizard, but ww have all experienced that sadistic teacher or boss who is a stickler for the rules, and in small ways makes your life absolute hell. Brazil is not a dystopian future, Brazil is a reflection of our lives now, and portrays evil that we know sits beside us in our own little lives, and that\u2019s why it is so frightening. Not only this, but you\u2019ll also find yourself laughing all the way, probably because Gilliam realised you would have otherwise just cried instead.\nThe small frustrations and errors that pile up throughout the film are presented via comedy, letting the audience relate to the character and circumstances, creating empathy. As I explained above, Brazil is full of recognisable evils and the fictional government has characteristics similar to real-life regimes: in the movie there are an unnecessary amount of government departments as there was in the Nazi regime, which in similar fashion to the movie suffered from horrendous miscommunication leading to an abundance of cock-ups. Also insufficient funding to essential government services such as emergency helplines (so that they only operate during the day) is a real aspect of many people\u2019s lives due to the economic slump of the last decade. It\u2019s all just too real. Great comedy moments that bewail the annoyances of modern life is how all the technology shown in the movie doesn\u2019t even work and just makes life more complicated, like oh my goodness the bloody phone, just watch it and you\u2019ll know what I mean \u2013 it\u2019s horrible. This is actually an important theme of the movie for although the government is vigilant in bureaucratic duties, they still can\u2019t run things properly\u2026\nEvery aspect of life within the movie is clogged up by ridiculous amounts of paperwork, something we have all suffered from in modern-life: people that had previously harboured great passions for their careers are driven mad by the never-ending forms to be filled out and are either forced into guerrilla lifestyles to be free of such trivialities, or just end up having nervous fits at so much of the mention of a \u201c27B-6\u201d. The anger is oh-so tangible in Jill\u2019s plight to report the wrongful arrest of Buttle as she is yo-yoed in different departments filling in form upon form into a dead-end. You find yourself watching with tight fists and white knuckles. What boils the blood further is the laissez faire working attitudes of those around Sam, especially that of his long-life friend Jack Lint (Michael Palin) who is high up in the surreptitious Ministry of Information Retrieval, who use questionable methods to extract information: such horrifying sights include the transcript notes made by his secretary during a retrieval: \u201cAHHHHHH, GOD PLEEEEASE NO STOOOP!\u201d, and when he finishes a job and greets Sam whilst wearing a blood-soaked apron. His callousness towards the \u201cerrors\u201d he may have contributed to and his \u201cjust doing his job\u201d attitude, even when it\u2019s a friend that\u2019s strapped to the chair, is simply chilling and I don\u2019t even want to go deep into what parallels could be drawn from the film to real-life. In Gilliam\u2019s universe, the cherry on the cake is that you\u2019re charged for your own torture.\nJohnathan Pryce gives an effective comedic performance as Sam Lowry, a simply ordinary man. He gains several belly-laughs in his many slapstick or total goof moments and he lets you indulge in a laugh or two at his pathetic frightened mouse routines. He also stirs up sympathy as he reacts in many situations as we would, and we are just as terrified as he is in some parts of the movie. His timidity throughout the film also makes his brave moments that much better, and makes Sam shine, even if it is just because he looks terribly silly. Palin is at his slimiest as Jack: all smiles as he plays the pawn in the wicked machinations of the Ministry of Information Retrieval, and completely spineless against his boss as well \u2013 ew. It is very rare that I don\u2019t like a character portrayed by Michael Palin, very rare indeed. Robert De Niro really makes up for his small screen-time in the film as he gives the coolest performance of a Heating Engineer possible, oozing charisma. You can\u2019t help but smile when he appears in a scene. He portrays freedom in this boxed up world and whilst being his own man, he\u2019ll risk his neck for a friend. The rest of the cast are brilliant, effortlessly conjuring the stuffy and uptight atmosphere of the movie. However, I want to give special mention to Sheila Reid as Veronica Buttle, Mr Buttle\u2019s grieved wife \u2013 I am forever going to be haunted by her cries of \u201cWHAT DID YOU DO WITH HIS BODY?!\u201d\u2026 Thanks Sheila.\nI cannot talk about a Terry Gilliam movie without mentioning the production design, for Brazil would not have been possible without his vast, wild imagination and the team that supported him in achieving it. Sam\u2019s world is indeed very Orwellian, with grey grim flat blocks that radiate misery and boredom, while his dream world is made up of images of a picturesque English countryside. Also, Sam\u2019s appearance in the dream sequences despite looking like a new romantic 80s band member, is the product of human fantasy as he flies through the skies with beautiful white wings\u2026 lovely. However, the true art of the production design is in the gloomy waking world of Sam; as a whole it has an incredibly suffocating and oppressive feeling. My favourite details are in the restaurant sequence in a Ritz-type Hotel in which old fashioned screens are used to cover up the fire-fighting of the establishment after it\u2019s been bombed (Gilliam was inspired by the IRA bombing that occurred when he lived in London); and the design of the technology \u2013 it is neither sleek hyper-futuristic or steam-punk but just shitty and plastic. A truly shocking detail of the production design is when the characters are \u201cinvited\u201d to information retrieval. They are locked into a full body straight jacket that covers the entire head, with their neck clamped on to a pole, so that they can be simply hung up tidily during transportation, just like animal carcasses in an abattoir.\nGilliam has created a really funny film punctuated with a lot of darkness, and I would claim that it is an accurate reflection of the world today \u2013 it must truly be bad times for me to not be surprised if governments started charging prisoners for torture, but in all honesty it seems like a reality that\u2019s just around the corner. It is both a dream and a nightmare, and is totally awesome. Brazil has a great cast, fantastic production design, is free of most modern CGI, and is simply pure craftsmanship. This is one of my favourite movies of all time and I would recommend it to everyone. However, make sure you watch the director\u2019s cut version: Gilliam had many conflicts with Universal, who chopped up the movie to create the \u201cLove Conquers All\u201d cut which is simply a mutilation of a work of art; in contrast Gilliam\u2019s ending is a punch to the gut, leaving the audience satisfied from an intense viewing experience. To not watch the full Director\u2019s cut is truly a crying shame in this case.\nTo conclude, I think that amongst all of the teen films, we need more dystopian movies like this. Yes, the material in \u201cThe Hunger Games\u201d and \u201cMaze Runner\u201d is shocking and emotive, and can make some great philosophical points, but Brazil is far more relatable and realistic. Sam is only a hero in his dreams and is not infallible to the horrors around him. Not only does the movie bring the faults of our world to our attention, it at least lets us laugh as we\u2019re there, and satire always leaves a longer-lasting feeling than drama in my opinion.\nPosted in Features, Katie Doyle, Latest Posts Tagged Brazil, dystopian future, Ian Holm, Jim Broadbent, Jonathan Pryce, Katherine Helmond, katie doyle, Kim Greist, Michael Palin, robert de niro, sci-fi, Terry Gilliam, universal studios\nClive Owen Joins Luc Besson\u2019s \u2018Valerian\u2019\nChristian Bale To Play Enzo Ferrari In Michael Mann Film",

It's a best of Fidelity. No holds barred,\" Mr. Danoff said at a Fidelity event in Toronto on Wednesday.\nHe has a list of about 75 stocks that he's initially targeting for the new fund, which has a global scope with an emphasis on U.S. stocks. Fidelity estimates the B series fund will have a management expense ratio of about 2.4 per cent.\nMr. Danoff didn't name any prospective holdings, U.S. or otherwise, but he said he did take the opportunity to meet with some high-powered management teams while in Toronto, including Royal Bank of Canada, Brookfield Asset Management Inc. and Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd.\nA signature of Mr. Danoff's approach to investing is in forging relationships with management, to build a deeper understanding of companies' growth prospects as a way to get an edge on the investing masses.\n\"In a given week, I'll see an energy company, a consumer company, a financial company, a tech company. You can ask questions about the competition, about the whole industry,\" he said, estimating he's met with close to 35,000 companies in his nearly 30 years as a fund manager.\n\"This is how we learn, this is how we place our bets.\"\nSince he took the lead on Contrafund in 1990, he has posted an average annual return of 12.7 per cent, net of fees, which beat the S&P 500 index by 2.7 percentage points annually, on average. Over that time, the fund's assets have grown from about $300-million to $103-billion, according to Morningstar data.\nSome of his biggest wins have come from investing relatively early on in companies that would become tech giants, such as Google and Facebook.\nMr. Danoff still has his notes from a pre-IPO meeting with Sergey Brin, co-founder of Google, and Eric Schmidt, the company's then-CEO. The company's revenue growth was tracking at 100 per cent a year, with 40-per-cent margins, and $2-billion in cash, even before going public, Mr. Danoff said.\nHe soon became one of Google's largest mutual fund shareholders as of the IPO.\nMr. Danoff got in on Facebook before its 2012 public offering.\n\"I knew this was a slam dunk, because I knew the people, I watched what they were doing,\" Mr. Danoff said. Facebook's stock is still one of the Contrafund's biggest holdings, accounting for a 5.9-per-cent weighting.\n\"Mark [Zuckerberg] is doing a great job with Instagram and Facebook Messenger. There is a lot of growth still to come.\"\nIt's not every fund manager, of course, who can get an audience with Mr. Zuckerberg, Facebook's co-founder and CEO, and the world's fifth-richest man, according to Forbes.\nMr. Danoff's track record and the sheer size of the Contrafund go a long way in getting calls answered.\n\"Everybody thinks I'm good. I'm just the biggest,\" he said.\nHe uses these meetings to try to identify best-of-class companies with credible management teams that can generate superior earnings growth.\n\"The more companies you talk to, the more companies you research, the better you're going to do,\" he said.\nHe's confident the market will continue to yield the kind of big winners that have fuelled his returns for several years.\n\"With rates going back up and oil prices rebounded, I think you're going to see some growth. We're seeing a lot of IPOs,\" he said. \"In terms of identifying new market leaders, I think we're in a rich environment.\"\nRRSP or TFSA?

The Pythagorean Theorem\nWhat does it mean: The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the SUM of the squares of its legs.\nHistory: Attributed to Pythagoras, it isn't certain that he first proved it. The first clear proof came from Euclid, and it is possible the concept was known 1000 years before Pythoragas by the Babylonians.\nImportance: The equation is at the core of geometry, links it with algebra, and is the foundation of trigonometry. Without it, accurate surveying, mapmaking, and navigation would be impossible.\n2. The logarithm and its identities\nImportance: Logarithms were revolutionary, making calculation faster and more accurate for engineers and astronomers. That's less important with the advent of computers, but they're still an essential to scientists.\n3. The fundamental theorem of calculus\nImportance: According to Stewart, \"More than any other mathematical technique, it has created the modern world.\" Calculus is essential in our understanding of how to measure solids, curves, and areas. It is the foundation of many natural laws, and the source of differential equations.\n4. Newton's universal law of gravitation\nImportance: Used techniques of calculus to describe how the world works. Even though it was later supplanted by Einstein's theory of relativity, it is still essential for practical description of how objects interact with each other. We use it to this day to design orbits for satellites and probes.\nValue: When we launch space missions, the equation is used to find optimal gravitational \"tubes\" or pathways so they can be as energy efficient as possible. Also makes satellite TV possible.\n5. The origin of complex numbers\nImportance: According to Stewart \".... most modern technology, from electric lighting to digital cameras could not have been invented without them.\" Imaginary numbers allow for complex analysis, which allows engineers to solve practical problems working in the plane.\n6. Euler's formula for polyhedra\nWhat does it mean?: Describes a space's shape or structure regardless of alignment.\n8. The wave equation\nHistory: The mathematicians Daniel Bournoulli and Jean D'Alembert were the first to describe this relationship in the 18th century, albeit in slightly different ways.\n9. The Fourier transform\nImportance: The equation allows for complex patterns to be broken up, cleaned up, and analysed. This is essential in many types of signal analysis.\n10. The Navier-Stokes equations\nHistory: Leonhard Euler made the first attempt at modelling fluid movement, French engineer Claude-Louis Navier and Irish mathematician George Stokes made the leap to the model still used today.\n11. Maxwell's equations\n12. Second law of thermodynamics\nImportance: Essential to our understanding of energy and the universe via the concept of entropy. It helps us realise the limits on extracting work from heat, and helped lead to a better steam engine.\n13. Einstein's theory of relativity\nHistory: The less known (among non-physicists) genesis of Einstein's equation was an experiment by Albert Michelson and Edward Morley that proved light did not move in a Newtonian manner in comparison to changing frames of reference. Einstein followed up on this insight with his famous papers on special relativity (1905) and general relativity (1915).\nModern use: Helped lead to nuclear weapons, and if GPS didn't account for it, your directions would be off thousands of yards.\n14. The Schr\u00f6dinger equation\n15. Shannon's information theory\nImportance: According to Stewart, \"It is the equation that ushered in the information age.\" By stopping engineers from seeking codes that were too efficient, it established the boundaries that made everything from CDs to digital communication possible.\n16. The logistic model for population growth\n17. The Black-Scholes model\nModern use: Variants are still used to price most derivatives, even after the financial crisis.\nBonus equations: From an email interview with Dr Stewart.\nAt one stage I planned to include the Hodgkin-Huxley equations, which gave mathematical biology a huge boost by using equations to model the way nerve cells send signals to each other. It formed the basis of theoretical neuroscience, and is still important. But it made the book too long, and in the end I felt that its impact on human history has not yet been quite great enough. However, that is likely to change by the middle of this century, as mathematical methods become a major part of mainstream biology \u2014 which I think they will.\nMy current candidate for and 18th equation (number 1 in \u2018Seventeen MORE Equations That Changed the World\u2019 -- I joke... I think...) is the basic equation behind Google. This describes how to rate the importance of a website in terms of the links to it, and it\u2019s a clever application of basic undergraduate linear algebra. It deserved to be in the book, but I was running out of space \u2014 and worried that my readers\u2019 enthusiasm for yet another equation might be drying up.\n- Max Nisen\n<iframe width=\"600\" height=\"460\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:0px;\" src=\"https://www.thejournal.ie/http://www.thejournal.ie/equations-changed-course-of-humanity-764429-Jan2013/?embedpost=764429&width=600&height=460\" ></iframe>\nEmail \u201c17 equations that changed the course of humanity\u201d.\nFeedback on \u201c17 equations that changed the course of humanity\u201d.\n17 equations that changed the course of humanity Comments",

        "title": "Walk the Moon rocks CU Ballroom in high-energy fall concert \u2014 The Lamron",
        "raw_content": "Walk the Moon rocks CU Ballroom in high-energy fall concert\nNovember 20, 2014 Justine Talbot\nThe fall concert tradition returned to Geneseo after a long hiatus with pop-rock band Walk the Moon on Sunday Nov. 16. The concert was sponsored by Activities Commission and took place in the MacVittie College Union Ballroom. It also featured special guest Annasun, an acoustic rock duo from Fredonia, New York, who opened the show. The indie duo\u2019s acoustic folk harmonies set a surprisingly low-key tone for the start of the night, considering the high-energy act that was to follow. Although the band started its set with stomping and clapping, it rarely moved out of the realm of folk rock\u2014though it did occasionally venture into blues territory.\nAnnasun\u2019s lead vocalist was clearly talented with a melodic, sometimes soulful voice. The stripped-down alt-rock band sounded great overall, especially for a small-time local act, but its sound was not the ideal choice for getting the audience pumped for a pop show.\n\u201cIt was cool having Annasun open for us,\u201d Walk the Moon lead vocalist Nicholas Petricca said. \u201cIt would be kind of like us opening for The Police \u2026 except that we\u2019re nowhere near as good as The Police.\u201d\nAfter a short gap between acts, Walk the Moon bounded onstage to \u201cTightrope,\u201d the catchy, radio-friendly second single off the group\u2019s first official album Walk the Moon. The audience instantly caught the pop musicians\u2019 infectious, happy-go-lucky vibe and quickly started dancing and singing along.\nOther highlights included \u201cShiver Shiver,\u201d a romantic dance-pop song, and \u201cLisa Baby,\u201d a solid rock song with fun, trippy synths. The band also played its aptly-titled summer anthem \u201cAnna Sun,\u201d arguably the band\u2019s biggest hit. Fun was the operative word for every song Walk the Moon played\u2013\u2013the entire show was like a party.\nWalk the Moon got its name from the song \u201cWalking on the Moon\u201d by The Police.\nThe band played several songs off its forthcoming second LP Talking is Hard, which is set to drop on Dec. 2. This included the ultra-catchy single \u201cShut Up and Dance\u201d as well as several unreleased tracks. The most promising of these was \u201cDown in the Dumps,\u201d which turned out to be anything but a downer. The song is more hardcore than much of the band\u2019s typically light pop fare, but it was just as danceable and hooky as anything else they\u2019ve released.\nThe band was clearly very excited to be on campus. Petricca repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Geneseo for inviting them back\u2014Walk the Moon played on the MacVittie College Union patio a few years back. Petricca also told a hilarious story about his first\u2013\u2013and only\u2013\u2013Inn Between Tavern experience, which allegedly involved a territorial sorority girl dumping her drink on him and screaming, \u201cGet off my bleachers!\u201d\nThe frontman also doubled as a motivational speaker. The things he said about releasing negative energy into the sky\u2013\u2013and more\u2013\u2013 were a little corny at times, but he definitely kept a positive vibe going, exactly what students need at the end of the semester.\nThe concert was sold out, but since only around 700 tickets were made available and because it was held in the Ballroom\u2014where the capacity is much smaller than that of Kuhl Gymnasium\u2014it didn\u2019t feel particularly large. Holding the concert in the Ballroom also gave it a certain cheesy atmosphere.\nOverall, the concert was a great way to let off some end-of-semester steam and enjoy some solid indie pop songs. No doubt, few who were leaving the Ballroom after the show would object to inviting Walk the Moon back to Geneseo for a third time\u2014and that says a lot.\n\u2190 Local Beat: Soft Cough makes big noise with sick soundsGOLD workshop provides alumni connections \u2192",

        "raw_content": "'Make a law to protect breastfeeding in public'\nA mother breastfeeds her two-month-old baby. Photo: Hasse Holmberg/TT\nMothers who breastfeed in public should be given legal protection against people who tell them to cover up, a new group argues.\nKicki Sahamies, a mother of two young children, launched the Breastfeeding Appeal (Amningsuppropet) after she noticed a change in attitudes in the years since she had her first child in 2012.\nBack then nobody complained when she breastfed sitting down, or standing up and walking around with her baby in a harness.\nBut after she had her second baby last year, she found that more people looked at her disapprovingly and were more open with their distaste. One incident in particular jolted her into action.\n\u201cI was at the library breastfeeding my baby in a harness when a librarian told me, in front of a crowd of people, that what I was doing didn\u2019t look good,\u201d Sahamies told The Local.\n\u201cI was hurt and upset, and a lot of mothers who hear comments like that feel the same way. They\u2019re ashamed, often to the point that they won\u2019t even bring it up at home.\u201d\nWhen she looked into the legalities she found that breastfeeding mothers weren\u2019t getting much help in Sweden. Women are allowed to breastfeed in public but there\u2019s nothing to stop a business owner, say, from putting up a sign forbidding it.\nSahamies and her fellow members are now trying to convince local councils to safeguard the right of mothers to breastfeed in all council-owned buildings. They\u2019re also lobbying national politicians, and have been heartened by the response so far.\n\u201cPoliticians across the spectrum are getting behind the appeal and the number of members joining our Facebook groups has exploded,\u201d said Sahamies.\n\u201cA lot of women don\u2019t speak out when people tell them not to breastfeed in public because they\u2019re worried that it will only make matters worse, but we can\u2019t keep a lid on this anymore.\u201d\nSahamies, currently on maternity leave from her night job in the health sector, said she feared more mothers would simply stay indoors for the first six months after the birth of a child.\n\u201cAs a society we\u2019ve grown more intolerant in the last few years.\u201d\nYoung people especially aren\u2019t keen on breastfeeding in public. A 2011 survey by Philips Avent showed 75 percent of young people in Sweden thought there were some public places where mothers shouldn\u2019t breastfeed.\nThe Breastfeeding Appeal\u2019s message to people who don\u2019t like it is: Put up or look away. And Sahamies thinks opposition to public breastfeeding should be legislated against as a form of discrimination.\n\u201cIt discriminates against the mother, but also against the child. I\u2019d like to make clear that we\u2019re not against bottle feeding, that\u2019s not what this is about. But breast milk is very good for a baby and it\u2019s not acceptable for a child to be denied this food in public places.\u201d\nBreastmilk drug could fight resistant bacteria\nSweden mulls banning babies in formula ads\nTwitter storm over 'official' Swedish breasts\n'A new law is not the right formula'",

        "raw_content": "Uber Lost $4.5 Billion in 2017. So How Come Investors Are Optimistic?\nThe operating data suggest that new CEO Khosrowshahi may have stabilized the company, allowing it to find a path to profitability in this lifetime.\nThe problem that remains is stubbornly high rider subsidies to gain market share and payouts to drivers as the promise of driverless cars remains elusive. JL\nHenry Grabar reports in Slate:\nUber lost $1.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017\u2014and that\u2019s good news. Uber\u2019s fourth-quarter losses were down 26% from the third quarter. Other positive signs for Uber investors: The company thinks its U.S. marketshare has stabilized 70% after falling from 82% amid scandals last year. A lawsuit with Google\u2019s Waymo has wrapped up. And revenu from 2016 to 2017, from $20 billion to $37 billion. (But) the percentage of revenue that goes to driver payouts and rider subsidies was at 80.5%\nUber lost $1.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017\u2014and that\u2019s good news for the ride-hailing giant.\nAccording to financial documents obtained by tech industry site the Information, Uber\u2019s fourth-quarter losses were actually down 26 percent from the third quarter. It\u2019s a sign that CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, who arrived in September, has started to right the ship at the troubled start-up. Other positive signs for Uber investors: The company thinks its U.S.\nmarketshare has stabilized around 70 percent after falling from 82 percent amid a series of scandals last year. A lawsuit with Google\u2019s Waymo has wrapped up with a settlement. And revenue nearly doubled from 2016 to 2017, from $20 billion to $37 billion.\nOperating expenses (for Uber, that means software programming, customer support, sales and marketing, research and development, and administrative functions) have stayed far below that massive revenue jump. In short, the company appears to be reaping the benefits from economies of scale. That makes a lot of sense, since its core product is an algorithm that costs virtually nothing to reproduce. The losses may be larger than ever, but they are shrinking as a percentage of gross revenue.\nThe picture is even rosier for Uber if you consider the company\u2019s adjusted \u201cearnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization\u201d (or EBITDA), a standard financial accounting metric that excludes, for example, one-off legal expenses.\nStill, $4.5 billion is a lot of money for a company to lose in a year. The conventional wisdom has been that Uber is banking on one of three things to repair what appears to be a fundamentally flawed business model: autonomous vehicles that eliminate driver subsidies, a hike to monopoly pricing after driving out competitors (read: Lyft), or a huge boom in cheaper, bus-style service like Uber Pool.\nBut Khosrowshahi says fully autonomous AVs are years away, at least at any scale. Fears of predatory pricing seem ill-founded given the replicability of Uber\u2019s business model. And Uber Pool, despite its theoretic efficiency, loses more money than the company\u2019s regular service (though, according to the Information, the company likes it because it brings in new customers). All this raises the increasingly likely possibility that we\u2019ll look back on this era as a golden age of cab-riding, when Silicon Valley subsidized a million trips home from the bar. We may not be enjoying Ubers this cheap tomorrow.\nOne number has been stubbornly stable between 2014 and 2017: the percentage of revenue that goes to driver payouts and rider subsidies. In Q4, it was at 80.5 percent\u2014slightly above the Q3 figure. Maybe Khosrowshahi thinks that\u2019s all right as long as continued expansion helps the company save elsewhere.",

Indeed, business as [nearly] usual in the face of the volcano crisis clearly contributed to our losses twenty-plus years ago.\nAnd no, it was not just \u201cde British\u201d and \u201cDfID.\u201d We, too were implicated and we continue to be part of the problem right down to today.\nBut, a reforming leader as a rule has to be \u201cthe good man in a storm\u201d \u2013 often, a disaster triggered by marches of folly undertaken in the teeth of his earlier unwelcome advice. On much history, such a leader will be turned to only as a last resort, and will therefore face the challenge of having been right when more favoured figures were wrong. Wrong, at awful cost. And, being newly at the helm when further disaster strikes is always a big challenge.\nThat is what confronted Sir Winston Churchill[1] on May 10, 1940. The Neville Chamberlain Government actually won the Norway fiasco Parliamentary Debate on the Adjournment, but was fatally weakened. So, Churchill was \u2013 reluctantly \u2013 resorted to. (For many years, he had been seen as little more than a proved failure and annoying dinosaur past his stale date. He would prove to be the greatest Prime Minister for centuries, at Britain\u2019s \u201cfinest hour.\u201d And yes, the phrase is his. Insightful, sound, visionary eloquence was a key part of his leadership.)\nLet us therefore again draw on key lessons of history. It starts on May 10, 1940, Churchill\u2019s first day in office. For, that very morning, Hitler\u2019s Panzers began to roll westwards. France was soon out-smarted and shattered. By June, the British army was only saved by a miracle of evacuation under fire at Dunkirk. Over the next three months, the Spitfires and Hurricanes of the Royal Air Force backed by a primitive radar system were the slender margin between defeat and survival as Hitlers bombers and fighters came over in daily waves from their new bases in France.\nThe UK then had to stand alone and take a further pounding until the Japanese attacked at Pearl Harbour, in the Philippines and at Hong Kong in December 1941. Many more terrible disasters followed. But Churchill stood firm, and with American help multiplied by Hitler\u2019s folly of invading Russia, the tide began to turn across 1942. Churchill would go on to win the war, but was defeated by Labour\u2019s Clement Attlee in the 1945 election. It is only in 1951 that Churchill would actually win a UK General Election outright. And yet (despite many flaws and failings), he is rightly regarded as one of the greatest leaders in not only UK but world history.\nClearly, unpopular leadership by one who the \u201cnatural\u201d leadership classes despise is a difficult task. For, someone like that has already suffered defeat after defeat in council and will be widely disregarded or even mocked. That kind of leadership is a delicate, difficult job at best.\nTo succeed at this time, we have to now acquire a taste for Churchillian reformation leadership, much as we had to learn to eat our veggies. So, to understand it at a deeper level, let us turn to our region\u2019s most common history book for a case study. As, soundly presented real world cases have a subtle richness of detail due to forces in play that a generic model such as SWOT simply cannot communicate on its own. (That is part of why we need to study history.)\nPaul, in Acts 27, was the most eminent leader of a controversial Jewish sect. One, that was admitting Gentiles without circumcising them and bringing them under the full force of Hebraic customs and law. He had been pounced on as a turn-coat and was being mobbed in the Temple in Jerusalem in 57 AD, but was rescued by Roman soldiers. He was then held in gaol for two years while undergoing trials and fending off assassination plots. He finally appealed against the Jerusalem leaders to trial as a Roman citizen before Caesar\u2019s seat. Soon, he was on a grain ship full of wheat heading from Egypt to Rome. Adverse winds forced them to stop in Fair Havens, Crete. It was late in the season and the port and town were less than desirable. (Sounds familiar?)\nSo, there was a ship\u2019s council on whether they could slip 40 miles down the coast to a better wintering port, Phoenix. Paul, already a survivor of three shipwrecks, intervened:\n\u201cAc 27:10 . . . \u201cSirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.\u201d 11 But the centurion [Julius, a warrant-grade officer in the Imperial Messenger Regiment] paid more attention to the pilot and to the owner of the ship than to what Paul said. 12 And because the harbor was not suitable to spend the winter in, the majority decided to put out to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing both southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.\u201d [ESV]\nClearly, money, bought- and- paid- for technical henchmen and clever words can often manipulate officials and the crowd alike. Paul warned against the folly, but lost the vote. And soon enough, a gentle south wind came up, so they set out on the 40-mile dash to Phoenix. They didn\u2019t make it, a hurricane-force early winter storm caught them. For two weeks they drifted in increasing despair. Hope was given up when Paul intervened with a prophetic insight. Shipwreck on an island, and they needed to eat to have strength. On the 14th night, at midnight, they heard breakers at a point near what is now St Paul\u2019s Bay, North side of Malta. Soundings were made, 120 feet, 90 feet as they come in from the East. Danger, in the dark!\nFour anchors were dropped from the stern, and they prayed for daylight. On a ruse of anchoring from the bow, the sailors plotted to abandon the passengers. Paul again intervened, and Julius now had learned who is a good man in a storm. Soldiers cut away the boat, and the plot failed. As daylight came, they cut the anchor lines, hoisted foresail and aimed for a beach, running aground on a sandbar. Then, the soldiers wished to kill the prisoners (to prevent escape) but Julius refused. All 276 souls made it to the beach, as the apostle predicted.\nObviously, we see very different balances of influence at Fair Havens and at St Paul\u2019s Bay. But to get there, Paul had to take an unpopular stance at Fair Havens and lose the vote. For, sometimes, the majority is unsound, and to strike a compromise with popular folly defeats wisdom. Worse, we must ever ponder Jesus\u2019 warning to a nation: \u201cbecause I tell the truth, you do not believe me . . .\u201d\nHard words, yes. But necessary ones as our nation stands at a cross-road. And it is the particular duty of those who stand in a watch-tower to sound the alarm, even at the most inconvenient time.\n[1] See: https://www.gov.uk/government/history/past-prime-ministers/winston-churchill\n\"Somebody needs to help get that person off the tracks!\"\nA bus driver was navigating a snowstorm when she saw a car stuck in snow on the railroad tracks.

        "title": "Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux \u2013 Review \u2013 The Nintendo Channel",
        "raw_content": "Review: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux\nPublished by Catarina White July 11, 2018\nAbout this game: Role-playing game, developed and published by ATLUS\nVersion reviewed: Nintendo 3DS\nATLUS has provided a copy of the game for review purposes.\nFew series can lay claim to the legacy that ATLUS has built for Shin Megami Tensei, and this year, that legacy is celebrated with the release of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux as part of the series' 25th anniversary. Strange Journey Redux isn't technically a new entry in the series; instead, it's a reimagining of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, which was first released for the Nintendo DS in 2009. ATLUS's decision to revamp an existing Shin Megami Tensei title - and one less than a decade old, at that - rather than produce a shiny new experience for such a landmark anniversary may perplex some, but the developer is likely to have significant resources invested in Shin Megami Tensei V, which is currently in development for Nintendo Switch. Remake or not, though, Strange Journey Redux is a fabulous experience, and features new content not seen in the original Strange Journey, which should help to entice newcomers and Strange Journey veterans alike.\nPersonally, I like my JRPGs to have some heft story-wise, and Strange Journey Redux absolutely delivers here with great storytelling and a large, fully fleshed-out cast of adult characters, a departure from the groups of adolescents that normally appear in the series. The greater maturity of the main characters might help to make the story more enjoyable for some, and better fits the game; the story itself is great, and is engaging enough that when you put the game down, you're likely to find yourself wondering where the story will go next... and how many more times you're going to fall through the same hole in the floor before you find the next hidden door.\nThe story begins in Antarctica, journeying to a strange alien anomaly called the Schwarzwelt, a black hole-like entity that threatens to consume the Earth; the United Nations decides that the best way to address the threat is to send in advanced military factions and scientists, which is where the game's main characters come in. The various pockets of the Schwarzwelt appear as warped Earth environments, like the red light districts of Amsterdam, or the disgustingly opulent shopping centers that appear across the world's most developed countries. Each place is crawling with more demons than the next, as the Schwarzwelt is their home. As you travel, it becomes clear the destruction of humanity is imminent, and the only way to prevent it is to make difficult decisions and do what you think is right. There'll be many choices for you to make, and each will impact the progression of the story and push it towards one of the many multiple endings available; as is often the case, making the choice you think is right may not shine the heroic light you expected on the situation at hand.\nStrange Journey Redux is best described as a dungeon-crawler JRPG, and an excellent one at that. Each of the game's levels has a theme, comprising a unique visual and audial feel, depicted through its graphics and soundtrack, and these are highly enjoyable. My personal favourite area is Sector Carina, which looks like a red light district; it's colourful and creative, and you're never likely to get bored of manoeuvring through this particular area, even if you end up completely lost. Each dungeon has a unique layout, which you navigate as you fulfil the missions doled out to you by your ship's robot captain. These missions can range from extremely easy in difficulty to causing you to go back to the beginning of a level to systematically check every wall panel for a secret door.\nThe gameplay is complex, detailed, and thoroughly enjoyable as a result. Your character's appearance is not customizable, though you can choose a unique name to go by throughout the game; your gear, on the other hand, is highly customizable, and you'll want to take advantage of upgrades throughout your progress to continuously level up your battle uniform, which is known as the Demonica. Upgrades go by the name of Apps and Sub-Apps, which are installed on the Demonica's internal computer. Apps, expendables - consumable items - and weapons are produced in your ship's lab. These items become available as you collect items, known as Forma, left around the dungeons. There are common Forma and rare Forma, and the lab's production capabilities differ greatly based on what you bring back to them, ranging from a new knife to a Sub-App that decreases the incidence of enemy encounters in the field. I tried to purchase equipment and upgrades as often as I could, and I felt that it helped immensely along the way and speeded up my success rate in battles as well as my overall progress.\nThe battles themselves are engrossing and clever. You randomly encounter demons in the dungeons every so often; your Demonica receives an App early on the game that allows you to sense when you are nearing an enemy encounters. This proves very helpful when grinding for experience points to level up, as it allows you to control the health and status of your party before engaging enemies. Once you enter a battle, you have a multitude of options on how to engage, or flee if you aren't prepared or unwilling to battle. You can either engage in combat or try to talk to the demons before you: combat allows you to gain experience and level up quickly; talking to demons allows you to attempt to befriend and negotiate with them to result in a number of advantageous outcomes, including adding the demon to your party or gaining an item. Attempting to negotiate with the demons won't always go well; some demons will refuse to talk to you, and sometimes my attempts at conversation fell completely flat and resulted in my being attacked unexpectedly. The battle interface is straightforward, giving you options to attack, defend, or use items; there's a new feature that allows co-op attacks when you strategically attack an enemies' weakness with multiple members of your party, and this noticeably decreases the level of difficulty of the encounter if you choose to utilize it.\nEach dungeon also has a new set of demons to encounter; as in previous games, Strange Journey Redux employs a demon fusion program, which allows you to befriend demons and later fuse them to create stronger creatures which act as your allies throughout the game and assist you in destroying the threats you encounter. This is simultaneously a strong point and a weak point of the game, as there's a lack of instruction or guidance on how to most effectively use the demon fusion program. If you're already familiar with the demon fusion concept - probably from playing other games in the Shin Megami Tensei series - the lack of instruction probably won't slow you down; for a player completely new to the system, however, you might end up having to go through a lot of trial and error before figuring out how to use the program effectively, which could have been avoided with a little more assistance.\nStrange Journey Redux offers multiple difficulty options to choose from, ranging from Easy to Impossible, at the beginning of the game; you can also alter the difficulty level while you're playing. I selected the Normal difficulty level to do my playthrough, and I found the game to be extremely easy in the beginning and extremely challenging by the final level. While it can be truly challenging in terms of navigating the dungeons, the bosses throughout are fairly easy to defeat as long as you pay attention to their weaknesses and the subsequent construction of your team and gear. Strategic construction of your team and gear is multifaceted; when deciding which demons to include on your team, you need to pay attention to not only the type of attacks they know, but their weaknesses and strengths in battle. The ability of my demons to neutralize an incoming attack lowered the level of difficulty of many of the boss battles I encountered. It's also important to pay attention to the gear you chose to equip, as it impacts your character's ability to weather attacks in battle and their use of special abilities to give your entire team the edge. Apps installed to upgrade your Demonica throughout the story often grant special use abilities that activate at the beginning of battles, which gives you the ability to do all kinds of interesting things, including striking first in battle or using magic-based attacks without actually needed to spend MP. Careful consideration of your team construction and which Apps to have activated becomes more important the further you progress in the story, as the strength of your enemies begins to ramp up.\nShin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux is very enjoyable overall. It weaves new concepts into its older story almost seamlessly and those concepts enrich the plot, which is one of the strongest points of the game. I found the dungeons to be truly impressive, both in the exponential growth in difficulty as you progress, and the visuals that ensured I rarely became bored navigating through them. Given the various difficulty options available to choose, this game is accessible for newcomers to the series and long-time fans, though you would certainly want to stick with a lower difficulty selection if you are new to the series. I will be playing this game again to see one of the alternate endings I didn't get to see upon my completion; with multiple endings to discover, the replayability of this game is exceptional. I would recommend this game to any fan of the series, or any new player looking for a fun dungeon-crawler with great characters and an engrossing story.\nRich cast of adult characters supporting a complex plot\nVisuals are colourful and creative for each level\nSeemingly infinite gear and team customization options\nDemon fusion program use may be confusing for new players\nJapanese voice acting only with English subtitles\nPublished by ATLUS",

Ice pellets are small, translucent balls of ice. Ice pellets are rain drops that have frozen before they hit the ground. - Contributed\nA winter warm front is draped across the region! For many, that sounds lovely, but it can be a traveller\u2019s nightmare. The warm front is not producing very much precipitation, but the type of precipitation is a concern.\nLet\u2019s start on the warm side of the system, where you\u2019ll find drizzle, fog and showers. That sounds harmless, but it\u2019s treacherous on gravel roads in rural areas. The ground is frozen, therefore light rain or drizzle will freeze on contact and turn snow-packed sideroads into skating rinks.\nAlong the front, you\u2019ll find freezing drizzle or light freezing rain: that\u2019s a real issue on paved roads. Freezing rain falls as a liquid. It freezes when it comes into contact with a very cold surface forming a thin coat of ice. Commuters are often fooled by this one, because the car windshield is warm, freezing rain doesn\u2019t freeze to it. The roads are not heated, so those same super-cooled droplets freeze on contact with the cold surface of the road.\nThe front that\u2019s stretched across Atlantic Canada is not pushing through but is oscillating overhead instead. A slight shift to the south and rain becomes mixed with ice pellets. Ice pellets fall on the colder side of a warm front during the colder months.

I know that a number of Members wish to speak this afternoon. I hope I have been generous in taking interventions, but I am conscious of allowing sufficient time for right hon. and hon. Members to make their points for their individual communities. I did not mean any disrespect to Mr Cunningham, as I know he takes these issues extremely seriously. It was on that basis that I sought to be generous but I need to make progress now.\nAndrew Gwynne Co-National Campaign Coordinator, Shadow Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government 5:25 pm, 5th February 2019\nAndrew Gwynne Co-National Campaign Coordinator, Shadow Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government\nJohn Stevenson Conservative, Carlisle 5:51 pm, 5th February 2019\nI want to touch on some wider issues, one of which is the relationship between central Government, local government and MPs. We often underestimate the importance of such relationships and the great change that can be made when people work together. I would like to put on record my thanks to the Secretary of State, the Minister for Housing and the Minister with responsibility for the northern powerhouse, my hon. Friend Jake Berry, for their positive and proactive approach to dealings with me and my local authorities to improve our region.\nClive Betts Chair, Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee 5:55 pm, 5th February 2019\nI probably agree with most of the points about devolution made by John Stevenson, but I strongly disagreed with his comments about the situation in 2010. It was clear that we had an international financial crisis, and Gordon Brown deserves a great deal of credit for mitigating its consequences on the international stage. That should be put firmly on record.\nI have the utmost respect for Mr Betts and it was good to hear his comments. I did not agree with everything he said, but there is no doubt that he has a significant level of knowledge on this subject.\nLouise Ellman Labour/Co-operative, Liverpool, Riverside 6:09 pm, 5th February 2019\nMark Pawsey Conservative, Rugby 6:15 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is a pleasure to follow Dame Louise Ellman, for whom I have the greatest respect.\nI also welcome the key principles that lie behind the Government\u2019s approach. They include the principle of encouraging growth by providing housing and the business premises that will create jobs, and hence providing funds in response to the needs of local residents. I hope to demonstrate to the Under-Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, my hon. Friend the Member for Richmond (Yorks) (Rishi Sunak), who will visit Rugby later this week, that our council is doing a brilliant job. The council represented by my hon. Friend and neighbour Mr Jones has been less effective.\nChris Matheson Shadow Minister (Cabinet Office) 6:21 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is always a pleasure to follow Mark Pawsey. It is a particular pleasure to follow my hon. Friends the Members for Sheffield South East (Mr Betts) and for Liverpool, Riverside (Dame Louise Ellman), both of whom came to the House with long and distinguished careers in local government, and indeed having achieved positions of national prominence. We can learn from their experience.\nMy hon. Friend Andrew Gwynne pointed out that all the additional spending power is created only from increases in council tax, but the situation is worse than that. The rate support grant is largely being replaced by individual pots for which councils have to bid in a beauty contest: money for potholes; money for rapid rehousing; support for high streets; extra cash for children\u2019s services. Councils have to go cap in hand to Ministers every time they want to fund anything, and Ministers can cherry-pick their favourite councils. We all know where that money will go.\nBob Neill Chair, Justice Committee 6:25 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is a pleasure, as always, to follow Christian Matheson.\nJo Johnson Minister of State (Department for Education) (Universities and Science) (Joint with the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy)\nStephen Twigg Chair, International Development Committee 6:32 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is a pleasure to follow Robert Neill, who made a thoughtful, reflective contribution to today\u2019s debate.\nThe publication of the latest Centre for Cities report last week confirmed what my constituents in Liverpool already knew: the city has been hit hard by almost a decade of austerity, with massive cuts in central Government funding hitting not only the council but police and fire services. Benefit changes have also hit the poorest communities the hardest. My hon. Friend Dame Louise Ellman has already spoken about what the report says about Liverpool, but I will repeat one of the statistics she quoted because it is so powerful. Since 2010, Liverpool has lost \u00a3441 million in Government funding, which equates to a per-resident reduction of \u00a3816 a year. That is the largest per capita cut across the whole country. As she said, our directly elected Mayor Joe Anderson and the Labour city council have shown enormous leadership in taking the city though that period despite the cuts, and have been doing their utmost to protect services for some of the most vulnerable communities in our city.\nMy hon. Friend Andrew Gwynne, the shadow Secretary of State, rightly said that the council tax base is crucial in determining what a local authority can actually spend. Liverpool City Council raises an average of \u00a3886 per chargeable dwelling. As such, we are in the bottom fifth of local authorities in the country. If we had the average tax base, we would have getting on towards \u00a3100 million more in council tax revenue. That is the basic injustice that hits the areas of the country with the greatest levels of poverty and inequality, which is why this settlement is unacceptable.\nAndrew Lewer Conservative, Northampton South 6:37 pm, 5th February 2019\nMy hon. Friend Stephen Twigg mentioned the Centre for Cities report, which shows that those cuts have not been fairly distributed; they have been targeted at northern cities and northern councils. Some of the more affluent areas, such as Wokingham in Surrey, have had no reduction in core spending at all. This Government have used local government funding like a pork barrel, putting it into areas that support the Conservative party and penalising areas that do not. Since 2010, Durham County Council has lost \u00a3224 million in its budget, and it is predicted that in the next four years it will have to slash another \u00a339 million. That is being done by a Conservative Government, but I do not want to let the Liberal Democrats off, because they also signed up to these cuts when they were in coalition.\nMy hon. Friend Mr Betts raised the issue of public health funding. If the Government go forward with the notion of the fair funding formula\u2014that should be getting done under the Trade Descriptions Act\u2014Durham County Council is forecast to lose some \u00a319 million, or 35% of its public health budget. That is happening in some of the most deprived communities anywhere in the country. It is a rural county, but it has deprivation on a par with some inner cities and parts of the former coalfields. How can it be right that under that formula Surrey would gain, and deprived areas such as County Durham would lose? The Government are taking political decisions about where the funding goes. There is this notion among those on the Government Benches that somehow every single council is the same, but I am sorry, they are not. The demands on my local council and councils such as Liverpool in respect of adult social care and looked-after children are a lot more severe than the demands in some of the areas that are getting extra funding.\n\u201cIt means working across all areas to make this a country that truly works for everyone, and a country where nowhere and nobody is left behind.\u201d\u2014[Official Report, 10 December 2018;\nRichard Graham Conservative, Gloucester 6:45 pm, 5th February 2019\nEarlier this afternoon, in your absence, Mr Speaker, we had a striking contrast in both the style and content of the Secretary of State\u2019s presentation on local government financing and the Opposition spokesman\u2019s response. On the one hand, we had someone calm and measured who, with his experience as Security Minister and as Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, has dealt with real crises, perhaps not least his own cancer. On the other hand, we had Andrew Gwynne, who was more purple than reddish with indignation as he made his remarks about how his party would never do anything to hurt the people. He said that we must grow the cake. We in Gloucester remember how Labour grew the cake, and he would do well to listen.\nThe Minister, who did see Gloucester and Cheltenham councils, at my request and that of my hon. Friend Alex Chalk, has made some pragmatic decisions, but they do not, I am afraid, resolve the financial problems that my city council faces. These include issues such as pension contributions and the business of council fees and charges income. Despite being able to raise our precept, we will not, I am afraid, be able to match the costs if our city expects the delivery of the services that it so values at the moment.\nI would love to ask the Minister this: will he have not a full blown review of local government funding, as Stephen Twigg called for, but arrange for a senior official to look specifically at our city council and offer advice on whether the system is working for us and fair, and what more we can and should do to raise the revenue to deliver the services that are so valued across our city of Gloucester?\nLyn Brown Shadow Minister (Treasury) 6:50 pm, 5th February 2019\nWera Hobhouse Liberal Democrat Spokesperson (Housing, Communities and Local Government) 6:59 pm, 5th February 2019\nMaria Caulfield Conservative, Lewes 7:04 pm, 5th February 2019\nI echo the sentiments of my hon. Friend Andrew Lewer in urging councils to become unitary authorities. I would force them into that, because this is not the best use of resources. That would not only save \u00a32.9 million across the country but enable better services. Our county council recently introduced fees for using the tips for tyres and rubble, which has dramatically increased fly-tipping, and the district council then has to pick up the tab for that. These are not joined-up services. This is not just about saving money; it is about a better service for local residents.\nLiam Byrne Shadow Minister (Digital, Culture, Media and Sport) (Digital Economy) 7:09 pm, 5th February 2019\nI want to start by associating myself with the remarks of the shadow Secretary of State, my hon. Friend Andrew Gwynne, in what I thought was a brilliant exposition of the injustice at the heart of this statement this afternoon. Be in no doubt: this statement today is a basic question of injustice and unfair deserts. It shows this Government\u2019s wilful determination not to do anything about tackling the injustices that now scar this country, including communities such as mine in Birmingham. If they did want to tackle them, at the heart of this statement would be a bold determination to make sure that we were investing most in those communities that need it most. Instead, as the shadow Secretary of State has set out with such brilliance, we have exactly the opposite.\nKevin Hollinrake Conservative, Thirsk and Malton 7:14 pm, 5th February 2019\nThe present situation is unfair. Nine out of the 10 best funded authorities per capita per year are in London; they have about \u00a31,000 spending power per person a year. In North Yorkshire we have \u00a3770 per person a year, despite the fact that a much larger proportion of that \u00a3770 is made up of council tax. We are contributing more but getting less in services. As my hon. Friend Peter Aldous pointed out, central Government grants to local authorities to inner-London councils are \u00a3437 per person per year, for metropolitan boroughs they are \u00a3319, for unitaries they are \u00a3225 and for counties \u00a3153. Andrew Gwynne cannot talk about unfairness and avoid those figures. We must move to a fairer funding settlement.\nIt is a pleasure to follow Kevin Hollinrake, a fellow North Yorkshire colleague. He made some powerful and thoughtful points, in particular on the disparity of funding between the north and the south. I enjoyed his contribution very much.\nRachel Maclean Conservative, Redditch 7:23 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is a pleasure to follow Anna Turley.\nHuw Merriman Conservative, Bexhill and Battle 7:30 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is a pleasure to follow Ruth George. She described the challenges in Derbyshire much as I would describe those in East Sussex.\nI want to look at countries that have introduced reform. In Japan, where there was no state funding for social care until 2000\u2014when it was recognised that there was a problem\u2014over-40s pay an additional amount in their pay packets, but of course they started with a blank page. It is to Germany that we should look, however, as my hon. Friend Kevin Hollinrake rightly said. Its plan, introduced in 1994\u2014he says 1995\u2014was delivered with political consensus and has been a great success. People in work pay half, employers pay the other half, and the retired pay the full amount, which brings in the element of inter- generational fairness. The contribution rate is 2.5% of wages, payable to a ceiling, with those without children paying more. To take out \u00a3283 per month, or a maximum of \u00a31,784, changes lives. The system has been reformed, too, as impairments have developed. It used to be based more on physical need; now it is based more on dementia and the mental side.\nJack Brereton Conservative, Stoke-on-Trent South 7:34 pm, 5th February 2019\nJim McMahon Shadow Minister (Housing, Communities and Local Government) (Devolution) 7:38 pm, 5th February 2019\nMy hon. Friend Mr Betts said that people now questioned why they were paying council tax at all, given that the neighbourhood services that they received were being reduced. My hon. Friends the Members for Liverpool, Riverside (Dame Louise Ellman), for City of Chester (Christian Matheson) and for Liverpool, West Derby (Stephen Twigg) made the same points about the human cost of removing vital public services. My right hon. Friend Mr Jones, my hon. Friend Lyn Brown and my right hon. Friend Liam Byrne outlined the very real community impact of austerity and the Government\u2019s targeting of our communities. Through to my hon. Friends the Members for Redcar (Anna Turley) and for High Peak (Ruth George), we heard story after story of the human and community cost of austerity.\nRishi Sunak Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Housing, Communities and Local Government) 7:43 pm, 5th February 2019\nIt is a pleasure to close the debate. I start by joining my predecessor, my hon. Friend Mr Jones, in paying tribute to all the committed people who work in local government and deliver for their communities every single day. We are all grateful to them for their hard work and dedication. I thank all hon. Members for their passionate speeches today, particularly those who brought their personal experience of local government to the Chamber\u2014our debates are the richer for that. Although I may not agree with the content of Labour Members\u2019 speeches, I respect the passion with which they represent their local communities.\nAs a northern MP, I feel that the north is lucky to have, in my hon. Friend John Stevenson, a champion for the northern powerhouse. He is committed to pushing the Government on rebalancing the economy and working constructively with them. That sentiment was echoed by my hon. Friend Jack Brereton, who spoke well about the importance of economic regeneration in his constituency and what the Government are doing to support his residents as they look to a brighter future.\nDivision number 322 Local Government Finance (England) 2019-20 \u2014 Level of Revenue Support Grant\nVotes cast by Members for constituencies in England: Ayes 270, Noes 208.",

In addition to New York, Tiger has major offices in Boston and Los Angeles, a business development office in San Francisco and, through Australian co-venture Tiger Asset Group, a location in Sydney.\nLike many companies with multiple locations, Tiger had been operating without a formal headquarters. The move to establish New York as its flagship office comes at a time when Tiger is embarking on a growth plan aimed at doubling the company\u2019s size within five years.\n\u201cGiven our strong ties to the international financial community, New York was the logical choice for our first corporate headquarters,\u201d said Daniel Kane, Principal and Managing Member, who co-founded the firm in 2001. Though based in Los Angeles, the Brooklyn native maintains a residence in Manhattan and splits his time between Los Angeles and New York.\nTiger Chief Operating Officer Michael McGrail, who had been based in Boston, will now divide his time between the New York and Boston offices. McGrail joins a New York team that includes such senior Tiger executives as longtime office leader Jack Rapp, Executive Managing Director; Melissa Coopersmith, Managing Director, National Sales; Andy Babcock, Director of Inventory Strategies; Fred Raccosta, Director of Business Development for New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania; and Robert Kowal, Director of Wholesale Liquidations.\nMcGrail pointed to New York\u2019s ranking as the world\u2019s top financial center in the latest Global Financial Centres Index from Z/Ten Group Ltd. \u201cWe see a lot of our growth emanating from this market,\u201d he said, \u201cwhether it be asset appraisals on behalf of banks and other secured lenders; advisory work for private equity firms, investment banks, and hedge funds; co-ventures with the financial community on debt capital opportunities; or asset dispositions involving retail, wholesale or industrial companies that are restructuring or conducting strategic closures. New York is the center for so many of these activities and Tiger is proud to plant its flag here.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Dominion Energy pledges 50 percent cut in methane emissions\nDominion Energy announced Tuesday it is pursuing an aggressive campaign to reduce methane emissions from its natural gas infrastructure by 50 percent over the next decade, a move that would be equivalent to taking 2.3 million cars off the road for a year.\nThe company, which operates a compressor station and an interstate natural gas pipeline in Beaver County, added that the 50 percent reduction in methane would also be equivalent to planting nearly 180 million new trees. The reduction will be measured against methane levels from 2010.\nDominion Energy said in a news release it will accomplish its goal in three primary ways: replacing older equipment with newer technology, expanding leak detection and repair programs, and reducing or eliminating gas venting during planned maintenance and inspections.\nDominion officials said they intend to replace natural gas-powered pumps at well sites with solar-powered electric pumps, which could reduce emissions by more than 90 percent.\nThe company added that there is still more it can do to reduce \u201cminor emissions\u201d of methane that are hard to detect because they are odorless and cannot be seen or heard.\nTo combat that problem, Dominion will increase its use of infrared cameras to detect leaks that are prevalent in every segment of the company\u2019s operations, from production and storage to transmission and distribution.\nThe company acknowledged that gas venting during planned maintenance and inspections is the single largest source of methane emissions from its transmission and distribution systems.\nA \u201cprimary focus\u201d of the new campaign to reduce emissions will be stopping the practice of venting methane during inspections or maintenance, and instead capturing, recycling and reusing that methane using new technologies.\nAccording to the company, those new technologies are allowing companies like Dominion to transform the way they operate.\n\"Thanks to advances in technology and innovations in our operating procedures, we can capture methane on a much larger scale than we could have 10 years ago,\" Mark Webb, Dominion\u2019s chief innovation officer, said. \"We've tested and proven these technologies in some parts of our infrastructure, and now we're dramatically expanding them across the entire system.\"\nThe president and chief executive officer of Dominion\u2019s Gas Infrastructure Group stated in a news release that the company recognizes \u201cwe need to do more to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to further combat climate change.\n\"We've made significant progress, but we're determined to go much further,\u201d Diane Leopold said. \u201cWith this initiative, we are transforming the way we do business to build a more sustainable future for the planet, our customers and our industry.\"\nDominion already has a success story to tell about past efforts in cutting emissions.\nAccording to the company, Dominion in the last decade has prevented more than 180,000 metric tons of methane emissions from entering the atmosphere, which is equivalent to taking nearly 1 million cars off the road for a year, or planting 75 million new trees.\nThe company also already has achieved a 50 percent reduction in carbon emissions from its electric fleet since 2000.",

        "title": "Not everyone willing to give swine flu vaccine a shot - News - Times Telegram - Herkimer, NY",
        "raw_content": "Not everyone willing to give swine flu vaccine a shot\nWhether due to ambivalence, fear or concern about side effects, there is little unanimity as to whether people think an H1N1 vaccine makes sense for them \u2013 no matter what experts say.\nBrian Doherty isn\u2019t in any high-risk group for the H1N1 flu. But even if he were, he wants no part of a vaccine \u2013 pandemic or not.\n\u201cWhy put something in your body if you don\u2019t need to?\u201d the Marshfield resident said.\nOthers are anxious for the vaccine to arrive. Patty Harkins of Braintree plans to get herself and her 8-year-old son vaccinated, just like they do each year for the seasonal flu.\nRegardless of what the experts say about the need to get vaccinated for the swine flu, fear of the potential side effects has convinced many that it doesn\u2019t make sense for them, or their children.\nIn a national poll conducted in August for the University of Michigan, 40 percent of parents asked said their children would get the H1N1 vaccine, while 29 percent said their children wouldn\u2019t get it, and 31 percent said they weren\u2019t sure. A more recent poll, done this month for Massachusetts-based health care communications company Silverlink, found only 31 percent of Americans surveyed planned to get a shot.\nThe World Health Organization is calling the outbreak a pandemic and the President\u2019s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology predict as many as 90,000 H1N1-related deaths this season. Locally, 18-year-old Matt Healey of Hingham, died Saturday after contracting swine flu shortly after arriving at Miami University in Ohio.\nMany are concerned about the possible side effects of a new vaccine. But local health professionals say the vaccine is likely to be as safe as a seasonal flu shot.\n\u201cI hope we can educate the masses that the benefits of these vaccines are likely to significantly outweigh the risks,\u201d said Dr. Todd Ellerin, chief of infectious diseases at South Shore Hospital in Weymouth.\nEllerin said that some patients fear they and their children will be used as guinea pigs for an untested vaccine. But, he said, the vaccine has already been tested \u201con thousands of patients, and we know already that there are no common severe side effects.\u201d\nMark Ferriter, out for a stroll Tuesday in Quincy Center with his wife and 11/2 year-old son, has concerns about side effects. Still, he has no hesitation about getting his child vaccinated.\n\u201cThey say to get it for babies,\u201d the Quincy resident said.\nBesides younger people, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention identified four other groups of people who should get the vaccine: pregnant women; people who have contact with infants younger than 6 months old; health care workers; and 25- to 64-year-olds who are at higher risk for the flu because of medical conditions.\nThe H1N1 shot \u201chas a safety profile similar to regular seasonal vaccines,\u201d said Dr. Robert Dart, director of medical operations at Quincy Medical Center.\nSoreness at the injection site, a typical result of vaccinations, is part of the process of developing immunity, he said. Besides a low risk of an allergic reaction, he said, the vaccine is expected to be safe.\nDart will be among those getting a shot.\n\u201cI got my flu shot and I\u2019ll get this one, too,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ll have two sore arms this year, instead of one.\u201d\nWHO SHOULD GET THE SHOT\nThose at higher risk of serious complications from the flu, whether it\u2019s the seasonal flu or H1N1 variation, include:\n- People older than 64\n- Children younger than 5\n- People of any age with chronic medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes or heart disease)\n- People with suppressed immune systems\nSymptoms of the H1N1 flu virus are akin to those for seasonal flu and include:\nDiarrhea and vomiting, in some cases\nWho should receive the H1N1 vaccine?\n- People 6 months through 24 years of age\n- People 25 to 64 years old who have health conditions associated with higher risk of medical complications from influenza",

        "raw_content": "0 Review: Undone by Cat Clarke\nAuthor: Cat Clarke\nFrom the author of Entangled and Torn comes an emotional book about loss and love, heartbreak and heartache. To say Jem Halliday is bereaved over her best friends death is an understatement. After all Kai was her life. The only thing that she wants to do is to follow him in death. However before she can do anything she receives letters from Kai. Kai wrote Jem twelve letters to be opened on a monthly basis. Jem can't help but take the bait, so she decides to postpone her death for a year. Though she plans to use that time to find out who it was that drove her best friend to suicide and make them pay.\nThis book had its ups and downs for me. I like Jem. I could understand her grief and her need for revenge. However her character is completely stubborn and at times I felt myself very frustrated with her. I liked how the author takes you through Kai and Jem's first meeting as children to their current circumstances. Kai, however, frustrated me completely. He writes Jem these letters in a P.S. I Love You fashion. Saying he wished he was there with Jem. Giving her fashion advice and whatnot. That sort of felt out of place. After all, he didn't die of cancer. He died because he made a choice. So saying I wish I was there, knowing you're going to kill yourself, is a slap in the face.\nWhat I really liked about this novel is the emotional turmoil that Jem goes through. She is changing, and even though she hates to admit it, she likes the changes. She likes the people she openly mocked. She learns that things aren't always as they seem. People are different than what they appear. And sometimes you're blind to the truth because you're not ready to see it.\nUndone isn't my usual cup of tea, but I'm glad I read it. I love the emotions that Clarke can evoke from the reader. She has a great writing style that keeps you turning pages. This is a book that can start important conversions on a difficult subject.\nLabels: Cat Clarke, review, Undone, Young Adult",

        "title": "Bradley Muhs authors article \u201cWhat to Know About Stays Pending Appellate Review\u201d",
        "raw_content": "When preparing to file an appeal, an important consideration is whether a stay pending review is necessary. A stay pending review preserves the status quo through the appellate process, and a judgment or order cannot be acted upon so long as the stay is in place. Pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.310, a party can seek a stay pending review of either a final or non-final order.\nThe lower tribunal retains jurisdiction to enter a stay even after issuing its final judgment or order. Although the lower tribunal generally has broad discretion to grant or deny a stay, a stay must be granted when the movant shows (1) a likelihood of success on appeal, and (2) a likelihood of harm absent the entry of a stay.\nThe appellate courts have jurisdiction to review an order issued by the lower tribunal on a motion to stay. Review of an order on a motion to stay is sought by filing a motion with the appellate court.\nThe appellate courts also have jurisdiction to issue a stay pending review as an initial matter. However, the party seeking a stay should first seek a stay from the lower tribunal before requesting a stay from the appellate court.\nIn an appeal from a money judgment, the party seeking a stay pending review is not required to file a motion for stay. The party seeking the stay need only post a supersedeas bond equal to the principal amount of the judgment plus twice the statutory rate of interest on the total amount of the judgment. In the event the party cannot afford to post a bond in the necessary amount, he or she will need to file a motion for stay with the lower tribunal, which will have discretion to grant or deny the requested stay.\nA supersedeas bond posted to stay a money judgment will include certain conditions which, until satisfied, will prevent the release of the bond. The bond must include, at least, a condition to pay or comply with the order in full, including costs, interest, fees, and damages for delay, use, detention, and depreciation of property, if the review is dismissed or order affirmed; and may include such other conditions as may be required by the lower tribunal, which shall have continuing jurisdiction to oversee the sufficiency of the bond.\nAlthough a stay pending review is intended to remain in effect during the pendency of all review proceedings, the stay will remain in effect only until such time as an appellate court has issued its mandate, which automatically occurs pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.340 after the expiration of fifteen days from the date of the appellate court\u2019s order or opinion. This is an important consideration for appellants intending to seek second-tier review of the appellate court\u2019s decision; the Rules of Appellate Procedure governing mandates and stays pending review interact so that the appellant has only fifteen days in which to move in the appellate court for a stay of mandate. If such motion is granted, any stay and bond previously in effect continues through the second-tier review proceeding; otherwise, the stay will be lifted.\nIt is always important to have a general idea of the direction a case might be headed, including on appeal. Litigants should keep in mind the procedural requirements necessary to make sure they \u2014 or their judgments \u2014 are protected throughout the appellate process. Nowhere is this consideration more important than when contemplating requesting a stay pending review.\nFiled Under: Appellate, News, Publications",

Some of these are actually countries that we want to explore, others are hotels, resorts or destinations that just look amazing.

When we heard that Royal Caribbean, one of our favourite cruise lines, were building the biggest cruise ship in the world, Symphony of the Seas, we were desperate to give it a try. As soon as we heard that the ship would be doing its inaugural season in the Mediterranean, we knew we had to go!

Don\u2019t get me wrong, I like experiencing different cultures, but if I can retreat back to the luxury of a five star hotel at the end of the day, it makes it so much more enjoyable!

We\u2019ve decided to take advantage of the opportunity and also visit Los Angeles, Anaheim and some of California\u2019s well-known beaches, whilst we\u2019re over there.

        "title": "Disposable People by Kevin Bales - Paperback - University of California Press",
        "raw_content": "Disposable People New Slavery in the Global Economy, Updated with a New Preface\nby Kevin Bales (Author)\nIllustrations: 14 b/w photos, 2 tables, 1 line drawing\nSlavery is illegal throughout the world, yet more than twenty-seven million people are still trapped in one of history's oldest social institutions. Kevin Bales's disturbing story of slavery today reaches from brick kilns in Pakistan and brothels in Thailand to the offices of multinational corporations. His investigation of conditions in Mauritania, Brazil, Thailand, Pakistan, and India reveals the tragic emergence of a \"new slavery,\" one intricately linked to the global economy. The new slaves are not a long-term investment as was true with older forms of slavery, explains Bales. Instead, they are cheap, require little care, and are disposable.\nThree interrelated factors have helped create the new slavery. The enormous population explosion over the past three decades has flooded the world's labor markets with millions of impoverished, desperate people. The revolution of economic globalization and modernized agriculture has dispossessed poor farmers, making them and their families ready targets for enslavement. And rapid economic change in developing countries has bred corruption and violence, destroying social rules that might once have protected the most vulnerable individuals.\nBales's vivid case studies present actual slaves, slaveholders, and public officials in well-drawn historical, geographical, and cultural contexts. He observes the complex economic relationships of modern slavery and is aware that liberation is a bitter victory for a child prostitute or a bondaged miner if the result is starvation.\nBales offers suggestions for combating the new slavery and provides examples of very positive results from organizations such as Anti-Slavery International, the Pastoral Land Commission in Brazil, and the Human Rights Commission in Pakistan. He also calls for researchers to follow the flow of raw materials and products from slave to marketplace in order to effectively target campaigns of \"naming and shaming\" corporations linked to slavery. Disposable People is the first book to point the way to abolishing slavery in today's global economy.\nAll of the author's royalties from this book go to fund anti-slavery projects around the world.\nUpholding Lincoln\u2019s Legacy: How Can Governments and Citizens Build a World Without Slavery?\nIn recognition of Abraham Lincoln\u2019s birthday, we observe his greatest, most lasting accomplishment: the abolition of slavery. Through this lens, we look at the historic and modern day slave trade to ask \u2026\nKevin Bales is the author of The Slave Next Door and Ending Slavery, both from UC Press. He is also Co-Founder of Free the Slaves, Washington DC, and Professor of Contemporary Slavery at the WIlberforce Institute for the Study of Slavery and Emancipation at the University of Hull. He is the world's leading expert on contemporary slavery.\n\"Convincing, emotionally wrenching, and freighted with appropriate moral indignation, Kevin Bales's startling presentation shows us that while the general public is convinced slavery is a historical phenomenon of the ancient past . . . it is in actuality a widespread tragedy found worldwide and on a large scale. This book innovatively and usefully describes the permutations of an ancient tradition as it exists in this modern day and age.\"\u2014Richard Pierre Claude, editor of Human Rights Quarterly\n\"A timely and fascinating book . . . of crucial importance. Few people realize that the increasing globalization of the economy has led to the use of coerced labor in many parts of the globe. . . . Bales has traveled widely and has gathered a great amount of shocking and disturbing information.\"\u2014David Brion Davis, Director, Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery and Abolition, Yale University\n\"A well-researched, scholarly and deeply disturbing expos\u00e9 of modern-day slavery with well-thought-out strategies for what to do to combat this scourge. None of us is allowed the luxury of imagined impotence. We can do something about it.\"\u2014Desmond Tutu\n\"Ending Slavery takes the critical next step of providing a practical road-map for ending one of the worst human rights abuses of the modern era. Using a common sense approach, Bales offers a clear, economic rationale for why slavery is not as profitable or sustainable as fair labor practices. In addition, this book shows that the solutions for such severe suffering are not simply the purview of the social sector but are opportunities for transformation among policy makers and business people around the world. Bales shows how we can all play a role, and he inspires each of us to take action.\"\u2014Pam Omidyar, Founder, Humanity United, Co-founder, Omidyar Network\n1. The New Slavery\n2.

        "raw_content": "Question: Can I perform a social security number lookup on someone who has died?\nAnswer: Yes, you can run a social security number lookup on someone who has died \u2013 though there are some exceptions (depending on your definitions of \u201clookup\u201d).\nIf by social security number lookup, you mean you would like to try to get more information on someone based on a known social security number, you should be in good shape.\nMost people finder websites will allow you to run this kind of social security number lookup, even if a person is deceased, and the reports you will receive everything from past criminal records, professional and business licenses, driving records, voter registrations, marriage licenses, mortgage/real estate records, etc.\nIn fact, you can even run a free SSN search right here \u2013 see below!\nThese records are all tied to credit report headers (i.e. the personal identifying information portion), which include SSNs, so \u2013 even if you don\u2019t have the social security number, a regular People Search with a last known City & State will still get you the same information. Bear in mind, however, that much of the data used by people finder websites relies on digital records that may not be available for subjects who were deceased prior to 1990.\nIf you\u2019re trying to run this kind of social security number lookup on someone who falls into this category, you would likely do better to go through a genealogy website, such as ancestry.com or familysearch.org, who index the social security numbers of deceased people going back to when social security numbers were first issued.\nIf by social security number lookup you mean that you are trying to find out the social security number of a deceased person, you can still typically use one of the genealogy websites to do this provided the person has been deceased for at least three years.\nThe Social Security Administration does not re-issue social security numbers, so they allow the publication of this information (in addition to whatever other details they may have compiled). For someone who has not been deceased for more than 3-years, people finder websites can get often get you a lot of other public records information based on a name and past address search (though not the SSN itself).\nBottom Line: If you have a social security number for a deceased person, you can typically perform a social security lookup on a people finder site; if you don\u2019t and the person has been deceased for more than 3 years, you can use a genealogy website to get the SSN.\nReady to start your SSN Lookup?\nThis entry was posted in Find Lost Friends and Family | USATrace.com, Social Security Number Lookup and tagged Can I perform SSN on who has died, people finder, Social Security Number.

        "raw_content": "Background Checks? What Background Checks?\nFlorida has more than a million people lawfully carrying firearms and thousands of new applicants every month. As a result, we were more than a little shocked when an embarrassing revelation regarding the Florida system for conducting carry license background checks was made public.\nAccording to the Inspector General for the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (the agency that oversees the concealed weapon license program), a lengthy investigation revealed that the following breaches of protocol occurred:\nFor more than a year, the state of Florida failed to review national background checks on tens of thousands of applications for concealed weapons permits, potentially allowing drug addicts or people with a mental illness to carry firearms in public.\nA previously unreported Office of Inspector General investigation found that in February 2016 the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services stopped using the results from an FBI crime database called the National Instant Criminal Background Check System that ensures applicants who want to carry a gun do not have a disqualifying history in other states.\nThe employee in charge of the background checks could not log into the system, the investigator learned. The problem went unresolved until discovered by another worker in March 2017 \u2014 meaning that for more than a year applications got approved without the required background check [emphasis mine].\u201d \u2014 Tampa Bay Times\nIn a CNN interview, Commissioner Adam Putnam stated, \u201cThe former employee was both deceitful and negligent, and we immediately launched an investigation and implemented safeguards to ensure this never happens again.\u201d I\u2019m not convinced, and I doubt that many of you are either.\nAs for the government employee, she told the Tampa Bay Times that her department was overwhelmed and that she was \u201cunder pressure to quickly approve applications.\u201d So, instead of asking her supervisors for help, she simply skipped doing the background checks. Hey, I\u2019m sure all of you have the same option at your own jobs.\nWhat is frustrating to people like us is that when it comes to a background check to purchase a firearm or a license carry it, you and I obediently (if grudgingly) follow the rules. We do this knowing full well that such measures do not \u201ckeep guns out of of the hands of those who shouldn\u2019t have them,\u201d as we are constantly told.\nLegitimate law enforcement agencies who study the problem have long admitted that gang members and other criminals are not affected by background checks. Such prohibited individuals virtually never buy their guns legally anyway; they get them from the black market or have an acquaintance with a clean record make the purchase for them. True, such an act is itself a felony, but despite that fact, it happens frequently.\nThe harsh reality is that even if so-called universal background checks which are now being proposed were to be implemented, the effect on criminals, gang members or even the mentally deranged would be minimal. With over 300 million guns in America and plenty of individuals willing to traffic in stolen or illegally purchased firearms, getting a gun will never be a problem for them.\nBut such increasingly onerous restrictions do affect the rest of us, both in terms of rising costs and (more importantly) intrusions on our freedoms, many of which could occur without due process.\nWe cannot sit by and let that happen. Stay informed, and stay in the fight.",

We are not. We are starting next winter,\" said Amy Cassidy, Eagle marketing consultant.\nCassidy noted in addition to providing a new recreation facility for the town, the Eagle Riverfront Park plan also aims to improve water quality and the project's sustainability goals require the delay.\n\"If we start this work now, we wouldn't have a realistic window to evaluate water quality with pre construction benchmarks,\" said Cassidy.\nThose benchmarks present a significant concern, she noted, because that stretch of the Eagle River has already been subjected to a significant alterations. The river was diverted from is original path during the construction of Interstate 70.\nThis winter, the Eagle River Watershed Council will launch a water quality study of the riverfront park areas and Colorado Parks and Wildlife will monitor fish passage and health issues along the stretch. Directing these efforts on the town's behalf will be recently hired consultant Caroline Bradford. Bradford will act as the project coordinator for the town.\nCassidy noted a lot of work has been completed for the riverfront park, but its work of the pen and paper variety.\nEagle' hired consulting firm S20 to design the in-stream features of the park and Cassidy noted the company is about 80 percent done with its design. In October, Eagle will release a request for qualifications for firms to design the riverside park. The town hopes to hire the design firm by December and host public imput sessions in early 2017.\nAs it looks at the park design, Cassidy noted the new amenity will stretch from the existing Chambers Park area to the Eagle County Fairgrounds. In addition to the riverbank amenities, the design will include a large parking area that can accommodate trailers during the county fair and paths that will connect Chambers Park \u2014 and ultimately the Broadway business district \u2014 to the new park.\nCassidy said there are a number of existing features that will be incorporated into the park plan. For instance, planners want to address the Eagle County Historical Museum complex at Chambers Park and the Eagle Regional Visitor Information Center building as part of the overall design.\nAs it launches the design aspect of the project, Cassidy said Eagle is working on a wetlands survey and will submit a 404 permit to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The town is also working with Eagle County and adjacent landowners on a detailed survey of the park property.\nThe .5 percent sales tax approved by the voters last April to fund the riverfront park will raise a considerable amount of money\u2014 an estimated $5.9 million from a bond issue released last week. But the scope of the project is bigger than those dollars, which is why Bradford will be looking for grant funding. Cassidy noted Bradford is currently working in a Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO/Colorado Lottery) grant due in October that will be announced this spring.\n\"The sales tax is seed money. When you apply for some of these grants, you need matching funds,\" she said.\nThere will also be a private financing push for the project and Eagle resident Markian Feduschek has volunteered to head up that effort.\n\"I feel, overall, that the park is very exciting and the town has done a good job of shepherding it through. Now, what's next?\" asked Feduschek during a recent Eagle Town Board meeting.\nFeduschek said a citizen's committee could provide input on the ultimate park design, communicate project developments and assist with private fund-raising. Town officials agreed and said formation of a citizen's steering committee is a project priority.\n\"This park is something that can be a game-changer for Eagle and the town really wants to get it right,\" said Cassidy.",

        "raw_content": "Encyclopedia of Meat Sciences 2nd Edition\nThe Encyclopedia of Meat Sciences, second edition, an extensive revision of the \ufb01rst edition published in 2004, covers all the essential meat topics, ranging from animal production, processing, analytical procedures, and food safety, to \ufb01nal consumption including health issues and nutritional aspects.\nThere are more than 230 articles and these provide a greater breadth of coverage than any existing work on meat science. In addition to publication in print, the Encyclopedia is also available for licensing online that can allow regular updating. The articles are designed to bring a non expert up to a level of understanding the interactions among the various disciplines covered in the articles. Most articles are 3000\u20134000 words long and include a list of Further reading and Websites to expand the content beyond the immediate scope of this work. The Encyclopedia is, therefore, a valuable resource for several levels of education and experience.\nThe Editors gratefully acknowledge the contributions of the authors of the articles and the Editorial Advisory Board. The board not only proposed subjects to be covered, but also found contributors and then reviewed the articles. The work involved in an Encyclopedia such as this requires an extensive interactive cooperation among the Editors, the Editorial Advisory Board, the contributors, and the publishers, particularly the staff of the Major Reference Works division of Elsevier. The staff included Nancy Maragioglio, Donna de Weerd-Wilson, Anna Gebicka, Cari Owen, Will Bowden-Green, Sam Mahfoudh, Zoey Ayres, and Marise Willis.\nThe Editors are particularly grateful to Cari, Will, and Sam, who worked very closely with us and who diligently pursued all avenues to obtain contacts with contributors, maneuvered around obstacles, facilitated the day-to-day management, and linked everyone together to meet the deadlines.",

        "raw_content": "The ACCELERATE! Initiative was developed to address the critical needs of Black MSM starting with Baltimore, Maryland, and Jackson, Mississippi.\nAligned with the National HIV/AIDS Strategy for the United States, ACCELERATE! is ViiV Healthcare\u2019s four-year, $10 million commitment to support innovative projects that focus on improving HIV outcomes for Black gay men in two cities hardest hit by HIV \u2014 Baltimore, Maryland, and Jackson, Mississippi.\nAt ViiV Healthcare, we develop and support sustainable community programs \u2014 with and for the HIV community \u2014 focused on education, treatment and prevention and access to care. Guided by this commitment and the persistent, disproportionate impact of HIV on Black Americans, especially gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM), we launched the ACCELERATE! Initiative on National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD) in 2015.\nACCELERATE! is guided by three key strategies to increase access to and retention in high-quality HIV prevention, care and treatment for Black gay men:\nListen to men\u2019s experiences and prioritize their perspectives to drive impact.\nActivate key community and research insights through collaborations and funding for new efforts that inspire and support men to seek and maintain quality healthcare.\nAmplify those insights and ongoing lessons from ACCELERATE! to inform current paradigms and practices and improve the delivery of HIV prevention, care and treatment.\nOur Ethnographic Research: Meet Me Where I Want to Be\nTo kick off the Initiative, ViiV Healthcare commissioned an ethnographic research study beginning with a comprehensive environment assessment to familiarize the research team with daily life in Baltimore and Jackson. The assessment also helped to establish an understanding about the contexts in which Black gay men operate at home, in the clinic and out in the world.\nThe research team interviewed 30 men, both HIV-negative and HIV-positive, in addition to their friends, family members and other influencers. Interviewers spent one to two days with each man. The study team also interviewed civic leaders, providers and others involved in the HIV care environment in these two cities and conducted an extensive review of media, images and messages that shape the broader cultural conversation around HIV/AIDS.\nThe research took a holistic view of men\u2019s lives exploring characteristics of the HIV epidemic among Black gay and bisexual men in Baltimore and Jackson. Coupled with insights from the local communities, this research identified opportunities to put this research into action:\nBoost empowerment and strengthen networks to break down isolation and stigma; connect men to networks of support; and expand delivery of HIV prevention, treatment and care.\nMake sexual education relevant with enhanced content for adults that reflects today\u2019s context and can be delivered in person and online.\nMake testing a bridge to prevention, care and treatment by piloting a revised protocol for men who test negative for HIV to better link them to healthcare, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and other community support services and networks.\nStrengthen navigation services that help guide men through complex systems and make it easier to enter and get back into care.\nTo learn one way ViiV Healthcare puts the perspectives of Black gay men at the center of ACCELERATE!, click here to watch our video.\nExplore more resources related to the ACCELERATE!

She matched the \u00a3480 burgundy dress with thick black tights and heels, and a black Mulberry clutch purse.\nFounded by Jane Lewis in 2001, Goat is a brand well known to the Duchess; she has worn Lewis\u2019s designs on several occasions, including during her prior pregnancies.\nAddressing an audience of headteachers, academics and mental health professionals at the Place2Be School Leaders Forum in London, the Duchess spoke about the importance of community in raising a child \u2013 and how she feels about leaving Prince George at the school gates in the morning.\nDuchess Of Cambridge: Hair Style File\n\"As a mother just getting used to leaving my own child at the school gates, it is clear to me that it takes a whole community to help raise a child,\u201d she said. \"Whether we are school leaders, teachers, support staff or parents - we're all in this together. We are all working to give children the emotional strength they need to face their futures and thrive.\"\nThe Duchess became a patron for the charity, which promotes early intervention to build resilience in children and help them overcome mental health problems, four years ago when she was pregnant with Prince George.

If no treatment is needed the information on the First Report will not be tallied in with losses by MACo.\nThe Accident or Incident Investigation Report is an important safety tool for county and safety department use to help to mitigate any further incidents. An investigation should be done regardless of injury or damage to equipment in order to assess what may have contributed to the incident. A copy of this form is in the Employee Safety Manual or from your supervisor. In addition to accidents, an incident report is filled out when there is a \u201cnear miss.\u201d This would be something that has the potential to cause a problem.\nThe incident or accident report is then used to write a report based on the information that was gathered. An important step in the investigation is to take photographs as soon as is possible so the conditions and location of the incident are recorded. The supervisor is responsible for the Accident or Incident Investigation Report, which will be reviewed by the Safety Committee.",

The community pool will be opened 50 days in the summer (June-August) intending to serve low-income people from the Adelanto, Victorville, Phelan, Baldy Mesa, and unincorporated areas of the surrounding Mojave Desert.\nThe three primary objectives of the AESD Community Pool are to provide:\n1. Community Swim: The pool will provide regular and frequent access to children and adults to enjoy physical activity and social interaction within a safe and healthy environment during the summer months.\n2. Life Saving Courses: The pool will provide swimming lessons to all ages and abilities to teach children and adults to swim. This will save lives, provide self-confidence, and encourage regular physical activity.\n3. Water Aerobics Courses: These classes will provide physical activity to those who may not be able to engage in higher impact sports. The courses will reduce obesity and other health conditions in adult populations and will provide enjoyable social engagement.\n\u201cI have managed our community swim program for many years. Unfortunately, due to economic reasons, we have had to close our pool on more than one occasion, including last year. Our community swim program is funded usually by donations and through AESD,\u201d said Donna Landry, AESD Director of Risk Management and Benefits. \u201cMany of our children and parents in Adelanto do not have transportation therefore, this is a neighborhood pool that will be embraced by our community thanks to Kaiser Permanente.\u201d\nAbout Kaiser Permanente Community Benefit Program\nKaiser Permanente\u2019s Community Benefit program is committed to improving the health of the communities we serve and reducing health disparities through community partnerships with the safety net of community clinics, public health departments, public hospitals, and other agencies. Community Benefit also helps increase access to quality health care and coverage, regardless of income, through our charity care and charitable coverage programs; supports community groups to inspire people to make positive changes for health through our Healthy Eating Active Living programs and Community Health Initiatives; and shares our medical knowledge, expertise, and research to help Southern California people live healthier lives.\nFor more info, visit http://share.kaiserpermanente.org/article/southern-california-overview/",

        "raw_content": "Lead Pastor : Greg Scott (Pastor G)\nOur current pastor and his wife, Annette, arrived in Waikoloa in October 2014. Greg is the Lead Pastor of our church and Annette serves by his side as our Office Administrator. They are living their dream of working together in full time ministry. Greg is a native of Newark, Ohio and graduated with a B.A. in Psychology from Case Western Reserve University in 1987 and an M.Div from Asbury Theological Seminary in 1994.\nHe is known for his sense of humor, singing voice, dramatic flair and inspirational preaching. Gifted in evangelism, teaching, administration, pastoring, discernment and leadership, Greg brings 28 years of ministry leadership experience with him. He describes himself as a retired football jock but current theater/music/computer/sci-fi geek! He is also major fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers!\nWhile in Seminary, Greg was one of the directors of Ichthus Ministries, a \u201cWoodstock-style\u201d Christian weekend music festival that drew over 20,000 participants each year. After graduating from Asbury Theological Seminary in 1994, Greg began his pastoral ministry in Goldsboro, North Carolina with the United Methodist Church. From 1994-1998, he led one of the two churches he served there from a worship attendance of 40 people to over 200 people and started over a dozen active small groups. He also led the church through a 10,000 square foot building addition program. Greg then spent 12 months in Wilmington, NC helping a failed church plant heal and transitioned the people into other healthy congregations in the area.\nIn the fall of 1999 the Scott family moved to New Bern, NC. Both Greg and Annette served on the pastoral staff of a new church plant in New Bern, which grew from a core group of sixty people to over 600 people in average weekly attendance. Greg led that church through a 15,000 square foot building project and led the launch of over 40 small groups. While in North Carolina, Greg also received advanced training in church planting, church leadership and congregational development.\nIn June of 2003, Greg and Annette began to feel God was leading them to plant a new church in thier home state of Ohio. Through a series of rapid developments, God confirmed that they were to be the founding pastoral family of a southern Ohio church called Fellowship of Faith. That church grew from 8 core families to a weekly worship attendance of 450+ people and they launched over 30 active small groups. During their ten years there they also led the church through the purchase of 40+ acres of land and the construction of a 12,500 square foot building project.\nThey remained at Fellowship of Faith until the end of 2013. Empty nesters by that time, Greg and Annette felt led by God to resign from that church and begin searching for a new ministry opportunity. About the same time, Greg suffered a catastrophic burn injury in a gasoline explosion and that delayed their search for a new church pastoral position for six months. Finally, in June of 2014 God led them to apply to WCC and they were eventually selected by the church and began serving here at the end of October, 2014. Greg and Annette love exploring and can usually be found out somewhere on the Big Island on any given Friday or Saturday.\nChurch Administrator: Annette Scott\nAnnette grew up in Alexandria, Ohio and studied for two years as a Chef\u2019s Apprentice before marrying Greg. She also has over 14 years of Children\u2019s and Youth Ministry leadership experience and has received advanced training in Children\u2019s Ministries from Group Publishing.\nShe served on staff as the Children\u2019s Pastor at New Song United Methodist Church in New Bern, NC for four years and as the Children and Youth Pastor at Fellowship of Faith for four years. She also has 24 plus years of experience as an Office Administrator. She has worked for Toyota, a large hospital emergency room and an internet based e-commerce art company. She brings all that experience as the Office Administrator of WCC.\nAnnette also serves as a volunteer on the church council as Outreach Coordinator and as the Sound Board and Media Technician at both Sunday morning services.\nGreg and Annette have two grown children. Their daughter, Becca, is married, and lives in Traverse City, MI with her husband Cory. Their son, Josh, lives here in Waikoloa. They have no grandchildren \u2026 yet \u2026 other than a dog and two cat fur-babies who live in Michigan with their daughter, Becca.\nYouth Pastor: Keoni Sugimoto\nOur Youth Pastor, Keoni Sugimoto was born and raised in Hawaii. He grew up in Waimea and graduated from Honoka\u02bba High School. Keoni says there was very little, if any, spiritual influence in his life as he grew up. It wasn\u2019t until after High School that God revealed Himself to Keoni. He says God showed him His love through a person named Jamie.\nOn December 5, 2005 Keoni was baptized at old A\u2019s by Isidoro Manzo, the pastor of the church he was attending at the time. He says at that time God was moving in his heart to leave his job and seek after Him. He left his job, moved in with the pastor and his family, and got to experience ministry life. He also had the privilege to go to the Philippines with the associate pastor Don Fujiwara.\nKeoni started his journey in ministry by helping where ever possible in the church. He participated in set-up and clean-up and then started helping with kids. In 2006 he was asked by Cookie Hudson if he wanted to be involved in Younglife and he was hooked. In 2007 he went to his first Younglife camp and has been involved ever since.\nKeoni joined the staff of Waikoloa Community Church in 2011 as our Youth Pastor. He has served as one of the leaders of the Wyldlife and Younglife programs here in Waikola and he teaches the youth during the 10:00am Sunday morning worship experience as well.",

        "title": "Hillary Clinton apologizes for e-mail system: \u2018I take responsibility\u2019 - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Hillary Clinton apologizes for e-mail system: \u2018I take responsibility\u2019\nDuring an interview with ABC News, Hillary Clinton apologized for using a private e-mail server during her time as secretary or state. Here are past statements where the presidential hopeful neglected to take personal responsibility for the controversy. (The Washington Post)\nA day after again declining to apologize for her use of a private e-mail system while she was secretary of state, Hillary Rodham Clinton told an interviewer Tuesday that the arrangement was a mistake and that she is \"sorry\" for it.\n\u201cAs I look back at it now, even though it was allowed, I should have used two accounts. That was a mistake. I\u2019m sorry about that. I take responsibility,\u201d Clinton said in an interview with ABC News.\nThe statement was the furthest Clinton has gone in showing remorse for the arrangement, which mingled her work and personal communications and kept them outside the regular State Department e-mail system. The FBI is investigating whether the system, maintained on a privately owned computer server at Clinton's New York home, jeopardized classified information.\nIn interviews Friday with NBC and Monday with the Associated Press, Clinton had declined to apologize, even as she said the arrangement was a poor choice that she regrets. She told NBC interviewer Andrea Mitchell that she is sorry the issue is confusing for people, but insisted that she had done nothing wrong.\nShe would not apologize, she told the AP, because \u201cwhat I did was allowed.\u201d\nRepublican critics had begun to use the question of an apology against her, undermining the campaign's plan to address the complex e-mail issue more directly and with greater humility. Questions about the private system have contributed to Clinton's slide in the polls, with more people saying they do not trust her.\nA Washington Post/ABC News poll this month found that 53 percent of Americans now see Clinton unfavorably. That rating rose by 8 percentage points since earlier in the summer, tipping the balance to a majority of Americans now seeing her in an unfavorable light.\nClinton turned over copies of roughly 30,000 e-mails at the State Department's request late last year, nearly two years after she left office. At the same time she directed that a slightly larger number of e-mails stored on the server be destroyed because she deemed them personal and not part of her government business. Initially she refused to turn over the server, but did so in August.\nClinton told ABC that she did not send or receive classified material on the account and said she is \u201ctrying to be as transparent as I possibly can.\u201d\nLate Tuesday, the campaign sent a message to supporters in Clinton's name reiterating the apology. Donors and activists have been complaining to the campaign headquarters for weeks that the e-mail issue was being mishandled, and it largely is their concern and disappointment Clinton is trying to head off.\n\"I wanted you to hear this directly from me,\" this e-mailed statement to supporters said. \"Yes, I should have used two email addresses, one for personal matters and one for my work at the State Department. Not doing so was a mistake. I'm sorry about it, and I take full responsibility.\"\nDemocratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said in an interview with ABC News that she should have used a separate account to send private e-mails during her time as secretary of State. (AP)\nClinton went on to stress, as she regularly does, that her personal account was \"aboveboard,\" and that \"nothing I ever sent or received was marked classified at the time. \"\nDespite the campaign\u2019s effort to more directly confront its problems stemming from the e-mail saga, Clinton\u2019s own reckoning with it still seemed grudging.\nIn March, she insisted that she had done everything by the State Department book and had nothing for which to answer; last month she said that she \u201cgets it\u201d that voters have questions. That was a significant shift \u2014 as was the decision to stop insisting the controversy was a manufactured Republican hit job.\nBut until now, Clinton had always said that although she would make a different choice today, there was nothing inherently wrong with setting up the system as she did.\nClinton\u2019s reversal on making an apology echoed the protracted 2008 campaign discussion of whether she would say she was wrong or sorry about her Senate vote in support of the Iraq war.\nIn both cases, Clinton adopted a narrow and somewhat lawyerly stance at first, then came to a more direct show of remorse.",

        "raw_content": "North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory (R) concedes closely contested governor\u2019s race\nIt's official: The last \u2014 and most heated \u2014 outstanding gubernatorial race of the year has come to a close, with incumbent GOP Gov. Pat McCrory of North Carolina conceding in a Monday video message to Democratic challenger Roy Cooper.\nIncumbent GOP Gov. Pat McCrory of North Carolina conceded in a video message Dec. 5 to Democratic challenger Roy Cooper. (Office of Governor Pat McCrory)\n\u201cDespite continued questions that should be answered regarding the voting process, I personally believe that the majority of our citizens have spoken,\u201d McCrory said.\nMcCrory is now the first North Carolina governor to lose reelection. His concession brings to a close a nearly month-long saga that seemed to grow more \u2014 not less \u2014 convoluted and heated by the day, and a four-year governorship that was marked by flash points on LGBT rights, police brutality and gerrymandering.\nHis defeat is also a rare bright spot in an otherwise dark 2016 election cycle for Democrats: McCrory's loss makes him the only incumbent governor to lose this year \u2014 and one of just a handful of sitting governors to lose in the modern era.\nCooper, North Carolina's attorney general, thought this election was over on election night. He claimed victory with a 4,000-vote lead out of 4.2 million votes cast. But McCrory refused to concede, citing unproven suspicions about manual vote counts in Democratic-leaning Durham County. McCrory requested a recount, and he and his allies spent weeks scouring voter rolls across the state for evidence of fraud.\nBut McCrory's voter fraud challenges failed to present any evidence of the kind of widespread voter fraud that would swing the election by thousands of votes. At least eight Republican-controlled boards of elections rejected all or most of the challenges because of lack of evidence.\nAnd as provisional and absentee ballots were counted, Cooper's lead surged past 10,000 votes, which is the state's maximum vote margin to conduct a recount.\nSo confident was Cooper of his lead that his campaign announced a transition team in the midst of the recount drama.\nRoy Cooper, the Democratic challenger in North Carolina's gubernatorial race, released this video statement on Nov. 18. (Roy Cooper)\n\u201cIt will be the honor of my life to serve this great state,\u201d Cooper said in a statement Monday after McCrory conceded.\nMcCrory\u2019s contest-every-vote strategy came under criticism from election officials and newspaper editorial boards. In one county, a dead person they claimed voted was actually alive. In another county, two alleged convicted felons were not felons at all. In another, an election protest was thrown out after the GOP lawyer who filed it didn\u2019t show up until after the hearing ended.\n\u201cIt puts a cloud over the integrity of the election process of North Carolina,\u201d Rhonda Amoroso, a Republican State Board of Elections member, told the Raleigh News & Observer:\n[From bathroom policy to protests, North Carolina's governor can't seem to escape the hot seat]\nThere was also a remote possibility that the GOP-dominated legislature could step in to try to settle this. But the chips would have had to fall a very certain way for that to happen, and GOP legislators had indicated that they\u2019d be reluctant to get involved, even to try to save a governor from their own party.\nMcCrory\u2019s camp said that given the closeness of the race, it made sense to wait until every last vote was counted for either side to declare victory.\nIn McCrory's concession, he reiterated that he still had concerns about voter integrity.\nThe final year of McCrory's four-year tenure was marked by drama surrounding some of the country's touchiest subjects. Prominent LGBT rights groups got involved in trying to unseat McCrory after he signed a bill this spring that limited which public bathrooms transgender people could use and blocked municipalities\u2019 ability to pass anti-LGBT-discrimination laws.\nMcCrory's approval rating dropped after the law was signed, and backlash to it reverberated across the business, sports and entertainment communities. PayPal pulled out of a deal with the state, and Bruce Springsteen canceled a concert there. The NBA and the NCAA also canceled their moneymaking basketball tournament games in the state.\nThe boiling debate over the bathroom law had just dropped to a simmer this summer when McCrory was forced into yet another defensive position, this time over another controversial bill he signed into law.\nIn July, three judges on a federal appeals court struck down the state's 2013 voter ID law, writing: \u201cThe new provisions target African Americans, with almost surgical precision.\u201d\nThe court ruling striking down the law was a huge win for voting rights advocates, who had been playing whack-a-mole with voter ID laws across the country. And it was a blow to McCrory just months before the election: North Carolina is fast becoming one of the most crucial swing states, thanks in part to an increasingly politically active African American community whose members overwhelmingly vote Democratic.\nThen, in September, there was violence, and perhaps the biggest test of McCrory's term, when 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott was fatally shot by a police officer outside a Charlotte apartment complex. Scott's killing hit a nerve in North Carolina's largest city, and McCrory declared a state of emergency as protests, some of which turned violent, filled the streets. It was the most intense reaction in several years to a police shooting.",

        "title": "Columbus Fellowship Foundation lives on, illustrating budget struggles in Washington - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Columbus Fellowship Foundation lives on, illustrating budget struggles in Washington\nSen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss., arrives for the Senate Republicans' policy lunch in the Capitol on Tuesday, May 22, 2012. Cochran has been a champion of the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation. (Bill Clark/CQ ROLL CALL)\nIt took up just three lines in Congress\u2019s last big appropriations bill, on Page 123 out of 487. But it is a legend, a wonk\u2019s campfire story \u2014 the government spending nobody could kill.\n\u201cFor payment to the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation .\u2009.\u2009. $450,000, to remain available until expended.\u201d\nThis is a great survivor in the vast ecosystem of federal funding: a 20-year-old program that gives cash prizes for work in science. President Obama has called it inefficient and redundant. He and House Republicans \u2014 who agree on almost nothing \u2014 have tried to eliminate it.\nEach time, however, it has been saved by a powerful friend in the Senate, Thad Cochran, the senior senator from Mississippi.\nNow, Washington is enmeshed in another battle over spending. But the Columbus foundation shows how both parties are struggling to turn their hard-nosed rhetoric about austerity into action. After all, it would be hard to imagine a less painful cut than this one: a program with two full-time employees and bipartisan enemies.\nAnd yet, it lives.\n\u201cCutting .\u2009.\u2009. is actually a lot harder than people think,\u201d said Rep. Jo Ann Emerson (R-Mo.), who made her own failed effort to kill the program last year.\nIn all, there have been seven explicit efforts to ax this program since Obama took office. The president has made four of them, asking for its demise in all of his official budgets.\nThree Republicans have introduced legislation to end it. Besides Emerson, Sen. Tom Coburn (Okla.) filed a bill to enact Obama\u2019s suggestion in 2011. And last year, the foundation was targeted by a program run by House GOP leaders: YouCut, in which online voters choose among possible spending reductions.\nOne week, voters picked the Columbus foundation.\n\u201cWe have a serious budget deficit,\u201d Rep. Paul A. Gosar (R-Ariz.) said in a Web video. He\u2019d been assigned by the GOP to shepherd a bill to cut the foundation. \u201cSpending on nice-sounding but unnecessary programs represents the low-hanging fruit of spending.\u201d\nAll three bills failed.\nEmerson\u2019s and Coburn\u2019s efforts sputtered out. Gosar\u2019s measure died in committee, part of a broader fizzle for the YouCut program. Of the 36 cuts its voters chose, only eight got a vote in the full House, and just two became law in some form. The GOP, distracted by the debt ceiling, health care and other fights, missed its chance to compile a House-approved wish list of cuts-in-waiting.\nAn aide to Gosar said the congressman was not available for comment. He said Gosar does not plan on reintroducing the bill in this Congress.\nAll along, as Obama and these Republicans were making a show of trying to cut the foundation, another Republican, Cochran, was doing the quiet work necessary to keep it going.\nOn the Hill, aides said Cochran has repeatedly requested funding from Sen. Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.), who oversees appropriations for small government agencies.\nYear after year, Durbin has agreed, and the full Senate has voted in favor.\nWhen the Senate and the House have met to resolve differences in spending bills, House negotiators have given in on the foundation\u2019s money. \u201cIf you\u2019re in a major negotiation,\u201d one Republican staffer explained, \u201cthat\u2019s a bone that\u2019s small enough to throw the Senate so you can get something back.\u201d\nThe program is minuscule, at least in the big-number world of the federal budget.\nLast year, the Columbus foundation offered $17,000 in awards for achievements in agricultural science, $17,000 for work in life sciences and $25,000 for research that aids homeland security.\nIt also runs a competition for middle-schoolers who use science to solve local problems. The top teams are flown to Walt Disney World for a week, and the winners get a $25,000 grant. Over the years, those students have been awarded six patents, for inventions including an under-seat storage system on school buses and a proposal to attach lights and a seat to walkers used by the elderly.\nBut in many cases, these are things the federal government is already doing.\nThe Army runs a strikingly similar program that asks teams of middle-schoolers to use science to solve local problems. Its finalists are flown to Washington.\nMaria Lombardo, a Boston educator, chairs the Columbus foundation\u2019s unpaid board, whose members are appointed by the president. Lombardo said the plan, someday, is to subsist on private donations. But not yet.\n\u201cRight now, we really need that support,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re not yet ready for that giant leap.\u201d\nIn 1992, this was not how things were supposed to turn out.\n\u201cThis program will be conducted at no cost to the nation\u2019s taxpayers,\u201d Rep. Frank Annunzio (D-Ill.), the congressional architect of the program, said then.\nAnnunzio\u2019s plan for funding the foundation looked like this: The government would sell specially minted coins honoring Columbus on the 500th anniversary of his landing in 1492. The proceeds would fund a foundation in the great explorer\u2019s name.\nBut the coins didn\u2019t sell as well as hoped. Annunzio had thought they would raise $51.5 million. Only $7.6 million came in.\nAnd 15 years later, it started to run out. The board went to Capitol Hill, hoping it could break Annunzio\u2019s no-cost pledge.\n\u201cIt\u2019s sort of a national treasure, if you want to know the truth about it,\u201d said James H. Herring, a lawyer who was the board\u2019s vice chairman until recently. Herring is also a former chairman of the Mississippi Republican Party and has donated more than $28,000 to GOP causes, including $1,250 to Cochran\u2019s campaigns, since 1989.\nAnnunzio couldn\u2019t help secure funding. He had retired in 1993 and died in 2001. But the foundation, headquartered in a Democratic district in Upstate New York, found a powerful champion in a Republican senator from Mississippi. Until recently, Cochran was the top Republican on the Senate Appropriations Committee.\nFor fiscal 2008, Cochran requested $600,000 in new taxpayer money for the foundation. He got it, tucked into Page 176 of a 614-page spending bill.\nA spokesman for Cochran said the senator supported the program long before Herring, a fellow Mississippi Republican, was placed on its board. Cochran, he said, believes that the program has merit and has produced \u201cnotable accomplishments.\u201d\nCochran was unavailable for an interview this week.\nNow, in Hill parlance, the foundation is \u201cin the budget.\u201d That\u2019s a little like being in Congress: Once you\u2019re in, it\u2019s presumed that you\u2019ll stay. The burden of proof falls heavily on those who want you out.\nStill, people have tried.\n\u201cThis Foundation has not demonstrated clear outcomes from its awards and has high overhead costs,\u201d Obama said in his official budget proposal in 2009. He noted that the foundation spent 80 percent of its money on overhead and only 20 percent on awards.\nIt didn\u2019t work. The foundation got $750,000 that year. Obama tried again in 2010; the foundation got $500,000. Then again in 2011; it got $450,000.\nNow, the next round. On March 27, all government funding, including for the Columbus foundation, will run out. Republicans have called for new, deeper spending cuts.\nCould the foundation be in danger again?\nIt has been headquartered in the Finger Lakes region of New York since 2000, when its executive director, Judith M. Shellenberger, a former Annunzio aide who makes $106,000 a year, moved the office from Northern Virginia to her home town, Auburn.\n\u201cWe have a vast amount of support in both the House and Senate,\u201d Shellenberger said. Asked to name some of those supporters, she replied: \u201cI can\u2019t think of anybody at this moment that I would point to .\u2009.\u2009. but definitely Senator Cochran has been a supporter.\u201d",

From the authentic mining artifacts to the working replica of a copper mine, and the multitude of pictures depicting miners performing their daily tasks, the walls tell a thousand stories.\nThe original building was called the White Eagle, built in 1915, with living quarters, which was a roadhouse between Wausau and Marathon. Gary Brandenburg\u2019s grandfather, a German immigrant was allegedly murdered in one of the booths, though the crime was never solved. The White Eagle was home to many weddings, and was known for Saturday chicken dinners and Friday fish fry\u2019s.

The interior was completely gutted and replaced with a cave like motif, featuring rock columns, outcroppings, and a waterfall that trickled behind the bar. An elevated stage was installed to feature some of the best entertainment Central Wisconsin had to offer. The Williamson\u2019s purchased the property in 1973 to open Sneaky Pete\u2019s, which featured a state of the art lighted Disco dance floor, capitalizing on the newest dance craze that swept the nation. 1980 was the beginning of the Wausau Mine Company with a partnership between the Williamson\u2019s and the Wages.\nAfter completing the remodeling, April 15th was the opening day and a Wausau landmark is born.

Fifty middle schools were randomly assigned to one of four treatment conditions, with a fifth group of ten classrooms serving as the control group. The project included a baseline and five follow-up surveys with 6th, 7th and 8th grade students to assess short-term environmental impacts; intermediate changes in knowledge, norms, attitudes, and intentions; and long term impact on rates of DV/H. These data were supplemented with qualitative data from staff and students. Using a randomized experiment, the researchers investigated (1) whether and how much of a difference it makes when all three middle school grades received a set of DV/H interventions compared to when only two grades or only one grade received it; (2) the impact of multiple doses of grade-differentiated curricula compared to 6th graders who received it only once; and (3) the effects of new grade-differentiated curricula compared to generalized curricula.\nRead more about the pilot study>>\nReport of the White House Task Force to Protect Students From Sexual Assault (PDF 2014--see CDC findings link page 9)\nNan Stein, Ed.D.",

        "raw_content": "China might have radar tech that can see the F-35\nThe United States is banking on the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning to provide an advantage in a major war with China or Russia. These high-performance planes use stealth technology to evade enemy radars.\nA F-35C Lightning II assigned to the \"Rough Raiders\" of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 125 sits on the flight deck prior to flight operations aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72). (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Juan Cubano)\nThe first operational stealth combat jet, the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk, was a gamechanger. It was able to penetrate air defenses, giving the enemy no idea that they were overhead \u2014 until the bombs hit their targets. The F-117 was followed by the Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit. Those planes gave China and Russia some real problems. Although they weren't entirely invisible, the detection range was so short that\u2026 well, let's just say that by the time you detected them, you had mere seconds to find cover before the bombs hit.\nAccording to The National Interest, Communist China now claims they have a way to counter stealth aircraft: The KJ-600, a carrier-launched airborne radar plane that will be launched from the People's Liberation Army Navy's Type 002 and 003 classes of aircraft carriers. One of the biggest weaknesses of China's carrier aviation was the lack of a plane comparable to the Grumman E-2 Hawkeye.\nThe E-2D Advanced Hawkeye is the latest variant of the long-running E-2 Hawkeye series of aircraft, which employs long-range radar and electronic communications capabilities to oversee the battlespace and detect threats beyond the sensor range of other friendly units. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Jacob A. Farbo)\nThe KJ-600 aims to fill that gap in capacity. The Chinese Communists claim that this plane can detect stealth fighters like the F-22 and F-35 at a range of 200 miles through use of an Active Electronically-Scanned Array (AESA) radar, but this capability may be oversold. An expert, quoted in the South China Morning Post, admitted that the 200-mile range comes from \"a certain angle.\"\nThose three words may be the catch for Communist China. There is no guarantee that the F-35 will come in at \"a certain angle\" conducive to 200-mile detection. It is far more likely the KJ-600 won't detect the F-35 until the American fighter has fired a pair of AIM-120D Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missiles. Then, the Chinese Communists will find their navy's been blinded, and are now sitting ducks.",

And over the years and decades to follow, outstanding business, intellectual, and opinion leaders joined the American Committee to participate in this unique philanthropic endeavor and support Dr. Weizmann\u2019s Institute.\nAs it grew from modest beginnings in New York City and Boston, the American Committee became a prominent national organization with offices coast to coast. It has enabled Americans to play a dramatic partnership role in keeping the Weizmann Institute at the forefront of modern science. Research funds, centers and institutes, major buildings, professorial chairs, laboratories, endowed scholarships, advanced instrumentation, and many other gifts testify to vigorous American commitment to the Institute, its graduate school, and to the mission of science for the benefit of humanity.",

TUM-Tech GmbH, an initiative started in 1998 within the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has taken up the job of transferring knowledge from researchers to businesses in a seamless and demand-oriented fashion.\nTUM-Tech provides companies with access to the broad technical and scientific potential of the TUM and other Bavarian universities (i.e. technical colleges, other scientific institutions). In order to find suitable solutions for their clients, TUM-Tech works based on the companies\u2019 individual problems and necessities, aiming to find the right expert in a complex scientific landscape for the presented case, both in the private and public sectors. Alongside the transfer of knowledge, the TUM-Tech also focuses on fostering innovation by providing individual consultancy for businesses and has been successfully conducting lead-user projects (showcase) in cooperation with TUM and various companies for many years. Within the framework of these projects seminars are offered in which student groups identify trends in jointly defined fields of innovation and search for lead users and experts. After the seminars, lead user workshops are organized in which together with the identified experts and users new product and technology concepts are developed for the partner companies who accompanied the project in each case. Another service offered by TUM-Tech is the support of businesses in entering new European markets. In addition, it organizes business and delegation trips to a large number of European countries.\nMore information can be found at their website.\nImage: NicoElNino/Fotolia",

After further studies, Hawaii and Cerro Amazones in Chile rose to the top of the list.\n\"In the final analysis, the board selected Mauna Kea as the site for TMT,\" Edward Stone, Caltech physicist and vice chairman of the TMT board, said in a press release Tuesday. \"The atmospheric conditions, low average temperatures, and very low humidity will open an exciting new discovery space using adaptive optics and infrared observations.\"\nThe project still needs to be approved by the the state and $100 million still needs to be raised for construction. The rest of the $300 million estimated cost will come from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. The telescope project is the joint venture of Caltech, the University of California and a group of Canadian Universities called ACURA.\n\"We are excited about the prospect of being the first of the next generation of extremely large telescopes,\" said Professor Ray Carlberg, the Canadian Large Optical Telescope project director and a TMT board member.\nOther giant telescope projects include the Giant Magellan Telescope meters and the 42-meter European Extremely Large Telescope.\nSee Also:- The Design of Extremely Large Telescopes\nTelescope Tech Will Speed Search for Extraterrestrial Life\nHow the Telescope Changed Our Minds\nThe True Anniversary of the Telescope?\nImage: Thirty-Meter Telescope\n#telescopes",

        "title": "When Did Croatia Become a Country? - WorldAtlas.com",
        "raw_content": "When Did Croatia Become a Country?\nCroatia declared independence from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1991.\nZagreb is the capital of Croatia.\nThe Republic of Croatia gained independence from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1991. Located at the crossroads of Southern and Central Europe, Croatia is a unitary parliamentary constitutional republic, with the president and prime minister as the head of state and head of government, respectively. Croatia has an area of 21,851 square miles and a population of 4.28 million. The country\u2019s first settlement was established in the sixth century, followed by the medieval Croatian duchy establishment in the seventh century. In 925, Croatia became a kingdom, and later united with Hungary in 1102. In 1527, Croatia joined the Habsburg Monarchy until 1918, when it seceded from Austria-Hungary following the creation of Yugoslavia.\nIn 1990, the Socialist Republic of Croatia initiated the political and constitutional transformation that culminated in the creation of the Republic of Croatia. The country proclaimed the Christmas Constitution after successfully holding an independence referendum in 1991. On June 25, 1991, Croatia declared independence and dissolved its association with the Socialist Federalist Republic of Yugoslavia (SFR Yugoslavia). Soon after the declaration, the Croatian War of Independence started. The European Economic Community (EEC) and United Nations (UN) formally recognized Croatia in January 1992. After the war ended in 1995, Croatia embarked on reconstruction and democratization processes, as well as socio-economic development, refugee settlement, and advancing human rights issues. By the year 2000, Croatia experienced the same challenges as many developing states, like political corruption and high unemployment, but the country grew steadily. Between 2000 and 2011, the country\u2019s constitution adopted unicameralism and reduced presidential powers following a referendum. Croatia joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) on April 1, 2009, and the European Union (EU) on July 1, 2013.\nCroatian Political System\nCroatia is a unitary state under a parliamentary governance system. The government has three arms, namely the legislature, executive, and judiciary. The president is the head of state, who serves for a maximum of two terms of five years each. Croatian parliament nominates a prime minister and forwards the name to the president for appointment as the head of government. At any time, the Croatian parliament has between 100 to 160 representatives elected through popular vote, and they serve four-year terms. The leading political parties are currently the Croatian Democratic Union and the Social Democratic Party of Croatia. The country also has a civil law that largely borrows from German and Austrian legal systems. Internationally, Croatia is considered a middle power and has direct diplomatic relations with 181 countries, 51 embassies, 24 consulates, and eight diplomatic missions globally. Similarly, 69 consulates and 52 embassies of foreign nations operate within Croatia.\nThe UN classifies Croatia as a high-income economy, whereas other bodies projected its nominal GDP to be approximately 53.5 billion in 2017. By January 2017, an average Croatian employee earned a monthly net salary of 5,895 HRK (Croatian kuna) and the unemployment rate was 15.3%. Between 2010 and 2017, the service sector dominated the economy and employed over 64% of the workforce, mainly within the tourism sub-sector. Croatia\u2019s main export partner is the EU bloc, which accounts for more than half of all its exports.\nThe official language of Croatia is Croatian, however, different local government offices usually use minority languages like Czech, Hungarian, Italian, Ruthenian, Serbian, and Slovak. In 2016, Croatia had a population of 4.19 million people and its population density ranked 125th in the world. The life expectancy at birth stood at 78.20 years in 2016, whereas the death rate exceeds the birth rate to date. Accordingly, the Croatian government was concerned that the population could shrink to 3.1 million by 2015 if the birth to death ratio remained the same. Croats make up the majority (90.4%) of Croatia's population, while minority groups include Serbs (4.4%), Hungarians, Germans, Bosniaks, Italians, Slovenes, and Czechs. Although the country has no official religion, Christianity is the religion of the majority (Catholic (86.28%), while other religions include Eastern Orthodoxy (4.44%), and Protestant (0.34%), and Islam (1.47%).",

Luisa Manalaysay-Sabornay\nEnd to Foreign Ownership Cap of Brazilian Airlines\nMore Transportation Aricles \u2192\nSyCipLaw joins PBSP\ufffds \ufffdReady for School\ufffd\nAre there any notable recent developments or trends in the aviation sector in your jurisdiction?\nAir passenger traffic in the Philippines increased by approximately 10% during 2016. This passenger growth was caused mainly by the expansion of low-cost carriers and flights offered at minimal or affordable prices. However, growth could have been faster had it not been for infrastructure constraints at the country\u2019s main airport, Ninoy Aquino International Airport, in Metro Manila. To address capacity and congestion issues, the government has moved to upgrade the four terminals at Ninoy Aquino International Airport. There are also efforts being made to encourage the use of alternative airports, particularly Clark International Airport immediately outside Metro Manila.\nAnother notable development is the shift towards online, real-time and paperless transactions. Previously, all check-ins, boarding pass issuances and payments of incidental fees and taxes were completed manually on the day of the flight. Passengers can now check in and pay the relevant fees online, which expedites the whole boarding process.\nWhat is the primary domestic legislation governing the aviation industry in your jurisdiction?\nThe principal domestic legislation applicable to aviation finance and leasing includes:\nthe Republic Act 386, as amended (the Civil Code of the Philippines);\nthe Republic Act 9497 (the Civil Aviation Authority Act); and\nthe Republic Act 776, as amended (the Civil Aeronautics Board Law).\nWhat international aviation agreements has your jurisdiction concluded?\nThe Philippines is a party to the following conventions:\nthe Convention on International Civil Aviation;\nthe Convention on the International Recognition of Rights in Aircraft; and\nthe Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules relating to International Carriage by Air.\nWhich government bodies regulate the aviation industry and what is the extent of their powers?\nThe Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines regulates the technical, operational, safety and security aspects of aviation and maintains the sole registry for aircraft and liens, other interests in aircraft or aircraft engines. The Civil Aeronautics Board regulates the economic aspects of air transportation.\nOperating authorisation\nWhat procedural and documentary requirements must air carriers meet in order to operate in your jurisdiction?\nA domestic air carrier must have:\na legislative franchise or a certificate of public convenience and necessity from the Civil Aeronautics Board; and\nan air operator certificate from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines.\nA foreign air carrier must have:\na foreign air carrier\u2019s permit from the Civil Aeronautics Board; and\na foreign air operator certificate from the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority.\nDo any nationality or other requirements or restrictions apply to ownership or control of air carriers operating in your jurisdiction?\nA domestic air carrier is a public utility, subject to the nationality requirement that at least 60% of its equity (including at least 60% of its voting equity) should be owned by Philippine nationals. A foreign air carrier is not subject to this requirement and is allowed to engage only in foreign air transportation (ie, air transportation between the Philippines and any place outside it or wholly outside the Philippines).\nWhat financial thresholds must air carriers meet to obtain operating authorisation?\nThe Civil Aeronautics Board requires domestic air carriers to have a minimum paid-up capital ranging from Ps10 million (for carriers with domestic non-scheduled flights) to Ps50 million (for carriers with domestic and international scheduled flights). Foreign air carriers must have paid-in equity capital of at least the equivalent of $200,000.\nWhat is the required level of insurance coverage for air carrier operations?\nAircraft used in air carrier operations must have a valid insurance policy covering:\nthe aircraft hull;\neach person, freight item and any mail onboard; and\nliability in favour of third parties.\nIn the absence of these requirements, the aircraft cannot be operated.\nWhat safety requirements apply to air carrier operations, including with regard to professional and technical certifications?\nThe director general of the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority prescribes rules, regulations or minimum standards governing practices, methods and procedures that are necessary to provide adequately safe civil aviation. The director general has the power to issue:\nairmen certificates to individuals who possesses the proper qualifications for, and are physically able to, perform the duties pertaining to the position for which the airmen certificate is sought;\nairworthiness certificates for Philippine-registered aircraft, after it is found that the aircraft conforms with the appropriate type of certificate and is in a condition allowing for safe operation; and\nair operator certificates to air carriers that are properly and adequately equipped and have demonstrated the ability to conduct safe operations.\nWhat environmental obligations apply to air carrier operations?\nAir carriers must comply with the obligations imposed by Philippine environmental laws and regulations, including:\nthe Republic Act 8749 (the Clean Air Act), which requires operators of aviation fuel storage tanks (which are considered a possible source of air pollution) to obtain a permit to operate air pollution source and control installations from the Department of Energy and Natural Resources;\nthe Republic Act 6969 (the Toxic and Hazardous Waste Management Act), which requires a permit from the Department of Energy and Natural Resources for the storage, treatment, transport, export, processing, reprocessing, recycling and disposal of hazardous waste; and\nthe Republic Act 9003 (the Ecological Waste Management Act), which provides for the mandatory segregation of solid waste to be conducted primarily at the source (eg, household, institutional, industrial, commercial and agricultural sources).\nHow are air traffic control services regulated in your jurisdiction?\nThe Air Traffic Service of the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority provides air traffic control services implementing international standards.\nDo any licensing requirements apply to specific routes?\nA person or entity wishing to engage in air transport in the Philippines (including on specific routes) must submit an application to the Civil Aeronautics Board, together with the required documentation.\nAre any public service obligations in place with respect to remote destinations?\nThere are no specific public service obligations on air carriers.\nDo any special provisions apply to charter services?\nYes. Economic Regulation 2, which was issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board, specifically regulates both domestic and international charter services. It provides rules and regulations regarding authorisation for:\ncharter trips;\nthe amount of charter trips that may be performed;\ncharter agreements; and\napplicable tariffs.\nWhat taxes apply to the provision of air carrier services?\nIncome taxThe income of a domestic carrier is subject to the regular corporate income tax for domestic corporations at the rate of 30% on all income received within or outside the Philippines, or a minimum corporate income tax of 2% on their gross income, whichever is higher or as otherwise provided in the legislative franchise granted to them.\nThe income of an international carrier doing business in the Philippines is generally subject to a 2.5% tax on its gross revenue derived from carriage of persons, excess baggage, cargo and mail originating from the Philippines on a continuous and uninterrupted flight, irrespective of the place of sale or issue and place of payment of the ticket or passage document. Lower rates may be applicable under tax treaties.\nValue added tax and common carrier\u2019s taxThe transport of passengers and cargo by a domestic air carrier is subject to 12% value added tax on its gross sales. However, this excludes the transport of passengers and cargo by a domestic air carrier from the Philippines to a foreign country, which is subject to a 0% rate.\nInternational air carriers doing business in the Philippines are subject to a 3% tax on their gross receipts derived from the transport of cargo from the Philippines to another country.\nThe taxes mentioned above are based on the National Internal Revenue Code, as recently amended. The amendments are expected to take effect on January 1 2018.\nConsumer protection and liability\nAre airfares regulated in your jurisdiction?\nYes. The Civil Aeronautics Board has the power to fix and determine reasonable individual, joint or special rates, charges or fares which an air carrier may demand, collect or receive for any service in connection with air commerce.\nWhat rules and liabilities are air carriers subject to in respect of:\n(a) Flight delays and cancellations?\nEconomic Regulation 7, issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board, provides for passenger rights in cases of delay and cancellation, as well as for the filing of relevant incident reports by the carrier.\nIn case of flights delayed for more than two hours, the air carrier must provide the passengers with free meals, communication and first-aid medicines, if necessary. If the flight is deferred until the next day, the air carrier must provide the passengers with free meals, hotel accommodation and communication. If a passenger opts not to fly the remaining sector of the flight (ie, a portion of an itinerary or journey), the value of any fare (including surcharges) of the remaining un-flown sector must be reimbursed to the passenger.\nIn case of flight cancellations attributable to the air carrier, the air carrier must provide passengers with free meals, hotel accommodation, transportation from the airport to the hotel, free communication and first-aid medicines, if necessary. If a passenger opts not to fly on the ticket, the value of any fare, (including taxes and surcharges) of the cancelled flight sector must be reimbursed to the passenger. If all sections of the itinerary are cancelled, the carrier must reimburse the total value of the fare, taxes and surcharges.\n(b) Oversold flights?\nEconomic Regulation 9, issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board, on the bill of rights for air passengers and carrier obligations provides for passenger rights to compensation and amenities in case of overbooked flights.\nWhile it is accepted practice for an air carrier to overbook flights, any expense, consequence or inconvenience caused to affected passengers must be borne by the air carrier. Among other things, the air carrier must provide the interested passengers or volunteers who are willing to give up their seats a list of amenities and offers from which they can choose. Such a list should always include the option to be given priority booking on the next flight with available space or to be endorsed to another carrier on payment of any fare difference (provided that space and other circumstances permit such accommodation) at the passenger\u2019s discretion, as well as a cash incentive. In case the number of volunteers is too few to resolve the overbooking, the air carrier should increase the compensation package by degrees or by adding more amenities and services until the required number of volunteers is met.\n(c) Denied boarding?\nEconomic Regulation 7, issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board, provides for:\na denied boarding procedure;\nexceptions to liability for denied boarding compensation.\nIn general, air carriers must pay compensation at specified rates to passengers which:\nhold confirmed reserved space;\nhave presented themselves for carriage at the proper time and place and have fully complied with the carrier\u2019s check-in and reconfirmation procedures;\nare acceptable for carriage under the carrier\u2019s tariff; and\nhave been denied boarding due to lack of space.\nIf accepted by the passenger, such compensation should constitute liquidated damages for all damages incurred by the passenger as a result of the carrier\u2019s failure to provide the confirmed space. The passenger must, in addition to the damages, have priority booking for the next available flight using the same ticket for which he or she was denied boarding.\n(d) Access for disabled passengers?\nEconomic Regulation 9, issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board, mandates air carriers to designate at least one check-in counter that will prioritise persons with disabilities, senior citizens and persons requiring special assistance or handling. If this is not practicable, the air carrier must instead provide for priority handling and processing of such passengers. The air carrier must likewise coordinate with the appropriate authorities for the use of proper airport equipment, entryways and aerobridges to facilitate transactions, movement, boarding and disembarkation of persons with disabilities, senior citizens and persons requiring special equipment at the airport.\n(e) Lost, damaged or destroyed luggage?\nEconomic Regulation 9 issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board on the bill of rights for air passengers and carrier obligations provides the right of passengers to compensation for delayed, lost and damaged baggage.\nFor international flights, the relevant convention will apply. For domestic flights, the passenger (on presentation of proof) will be compensated up to the equivalent of 50% of the amount stated in the relevant convention (for international flights) in its peso equivalent. For compensation purposes, a passenger\u2019s baggage is presumed to have been permanently and totally lost if within seven days from the date on which the passenger or consignee should have received the baggage, it is not delivered to said passenger or consignee.\n(f) Retention and protection of passenger data?\nPassenger data is covered by the Republic Act 10173 (the Data Privacy Act) which seeks to protect the confidentiality of personal information.\n\u2018Personal information\u2019 is defined under the Data Privacy Act as any information, whether recorded in material form or not, from which the identity of an individual is apparent or can be reasonably and directly ascertained by the entity holding the information, or when put together with other information would directly and certainly identify an individual.\nThe act imposes certain obligations on personal information controllers and those that process personal information. Personal information controllers are persons that control the collection, holding, processing or use of personal information, while processors are those to whom processing has been outsourced. Under the law, collection and processing must be conducted in accordance with general guidelines based on the principles of transparency, legitimate purpose and proportionality. Processing is permitted only if one of a number of certain specific conditions is present, which includes:\nnecessity under the contract with the data subject; and\nnecessity for the protection of the data subject\u2019s interests.\nThe law also provides for penal and monetary penalties for violations therein. The act has extraterritorial application and applies even to acts or practices executed by a non-resident outside the Philippines, provided that:\nthe processing relates to personal information about a Philippine citizen or resident;\nthe entity has a link with the Philippines and is processing personal information in the Philippines or, if the processing is done outside the Philippines, that it is about Philippine citizens or residents; and\nthe entity has other links to the Philippines (eg, when the entity conducts business in the Philippines or the information was collected or held by an entity in the Philippines).\nWhat rules and liabilities apply to the air carriage of cargo?\nCommon carriers, including air carriers, are bound to observe extraordinary diligence in the vigilance over goods and for the safety of the passengers transported by them, according to all of the circumstances of each case.\nCommon carriers are responsible for the loss, destruction or deterioration of goods, unless they can prove that the loss, destruction or deterioration was brought about by:\na flood, storm, earthquake, lightning or another natural disaster or calamity;\nan act of the public enemy in war, whether international or civil;\nan act or omission of the shipper or owner of the goods;\nthe character of the goods or defects in the packing or containers; or\nan order or act of competent public authority, as specified in Article 1734 of the Civil Code.\nIn all other cases, common carriers are presumed to have been at fault or to have acted negligently, unless they can prove that they observed extraordinary diligence.\nEconomic Regulation 9, issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board, provides for the bill of rights for air passengers and carrier obligations. It provides for the right of passengers to compensation for delayed, lost and damaged baggage.\nDo any special rules apply to the marketing and advertising of aviation services?\nEconomic Regulation 9 on the bill of rights for air passengers and carrier obligations provides for:\nthe right of passengers to clear and non-misleading advertisements;\nthe right to full, fair and clear disclosure of services offered by carriers; and\nthe right against misleading and fraudulent sales promotion practices.\nAccordingly, all sales promotion campaigns and air carrier activities must be carried out with honesty, transparency and fairness, and in accordance with the requirements of the Republic Act 7394, as amended (the Consumer Act of the Philippines).\nDo any special rules apply to consumer complaints handling in the aviation industry?\nEconomic Regulation 9 on the bill of rights for air passengers and carrier obligations provides that air carriers must provide customer service representatives who can address common problems on the spot. It also plans complaints and assistance desks in all airports to be established by the board. These desks are to be manned by the board or deputised personnel, who will assist passengers whose rights to the service have not been fully satisfied by the air carrier. The personnel will also assist in the filing and prosecution of the complaints of passengers whose rights have been violated and who wish to pursue the concerned air carrier.\nWhat are the requirements for entry in the domestic aircraft register?\nFor registration of an aircraft with the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines, a deregistration fax and email must be issued by the former registry, if any.\nThe application for issuance of the certificate of registration must be made in writing, and signed and sworn to by the owner or lessee of the aircraft. The applicant must be a Philippine national (ie, a citizen of the Philippines or a corporation or association organised under the laws of the Philippines, at least 60% of whose capital is owned by Filipino citizens). The supporting documents that must be attached to the certificate of registration application form are as follows:\ndocumentary evidence of ownership or, for leased aircraft, a notarised duplicate signed copy of the lease agreement (if the lease agreement is signed outside the Philippines, it must be notarised and consularised at the Philippine consulate in the jurisdiction where it was signed);\na special power of attorney or equivalent document (eg, a board resolution authorising the applicant to sign on behalf of the applicant owner or lessee);\ncustoms clearance or tax exemption (if applicable) and customs release or payment;\na certificate of non-registration, if factory new;\nan official receipt in connection with the payment of registration fee (depending on the gross weight of the aircraft);\nan official receipt in connection with the payment of recordation fee (if applicable);\nPhilippines Civil Aviation Authority accounting clearance;\nan assignment of registration number or RP-C number (the applicant must reserve a registration number which must be used within 90 days, otherwise the reserved registry number is deemed automatically cancelled if not used within that specified period);\nconstitutive documents of the applicant owner or lessee; and\na certified true copy of the aircraft\u2019s certificate of insurance.\nFor aircraft for hire to the general public, the following additional documents must also be submitted:\na Civil Aeronautics Board permit or approval; and\nan air operator certificate.\nThe Philippines Civil Aviation Authority may require the submission of additional supporting documents. If when considering the application for registration the authority\u2019s director general finds that the aircraft is eligible for registration, such aircraft will be registered and a certificate of registration will be issued.\nMortgages and encumbrances\nIs there a domestic register for aircraft mortgages, encumbrances and other interests? If so, what are the requirements and legal effects of registration?\nYes. The Philippines Civil Aviation Authority maintains the sole aircraft registry in which conveyances affecting title to or interest (including mortgage, encumbrances and other interests) over Philippine-registered aircraft may also be recorded.\nAny conveyance affecting title to or interest in any Philippine-registered aircraft (including a mortgage) or any portion thereof must be recorded with the authority in order to be valid and effective against third parties, otherwise it will bind only the parties and their successors-in-interest and any person who has actual notice of such conveyance. Although no period for the recordation of the security document is specified in the Republic Act 9497 (the Civil Aviation Authority Act), it is recommended that the instrument be recorded promptly after execution.\nTo register a security interest over the aircraft with the authority, the security document must be filed and recorded in the authority registry and annotated on the rear portion of the certificate of registration.\nThe security documents must be originals, notarised and, if executed abroad, consularised by the Philippine consulate where the document is signed.\nIn addition, the authority requires the presentation of proof of authority of the signatories to the security documents (eg, board resolutions), which must also be notarised and, if executed abroad, consularised by the Philippine consulate where the document is signed.\nWhat rules and procedures govern the detention of aircraft?\nThe Civil Code recognises possessory liens in respect of claims for the unpaid price of movables sold and in respect of credits for the making, repair, safekeeping or preservation of personal property. These liens apply to an aircraft.\nPhilippine tax authorities may also distrain or sell an aircraft for failure to pay Philippine taxes.\nPhilippine customs authorities may likewise sell an aircraft for failure to pay customs duties, fees, charges or fines, or for carriage of smuggled or contraband goods, unless such aircraft is used as a duly authorised common carrier.\nUnder Executive Order 903, the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) (which is empowered to levy and collect dues, charges and fees or concessions), or any service provided by the MIAA, may also on its own authority detain any aircraft, equipment or furniture belonging to the owner or agent of said aircraft, until such amounts have been paid.\nWhat rules and procedures govern aircraft safety and maintenance?\nPart 5 of the Philippine Civil Aviation Regulations (Airworthiness) provides the regulatory requirements for the airworthiness of aircraft expected to operate in the Philippines using the standards and recommended practices of the International Civil Aviation Organisation.\nPart 8 of the Philippine Civil Aviation Regulations (Operations) requires continuous airworthiness maintenance inspection and provides for other aircraft safety and maintenance requirements.\nA person may operate a civil aircraft only if it is airworthy. Each pilot-in-command must determine whether an aircraft is in a safe condition for flight.\nAir carriers must use continuous airworthiness maintenance inspection programmes for the inspection of the aircraft.\nWhat is the state of regulation on unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) in your jurisdiction?\nThe Philippines Civil Aviation Authority:\nrequires prior authorisation for persons planning to conduct remotely piloted aircraft flying displays or air shows;\nprohibits the flying of drones over airports and no-fly zones; and\nprovides guidelines on remotely piloted aircrafts controller and operator certificates.\nHow are air accidents investigated in your jurisdiction?\nThe investigation into accidents commences on the appointment of investigators and advisers by the chair of the Aircraft Accident Investigation and Inquiry Board under the Office of the Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines. Where the chair of the Aircraft Accident Investigation and Inquiry Board is of the opinion that it would be desirable for public notice to be given that an investigation is taking place, he or she may do so in a manner that he or she thinks fit.\nAircraft accident investigations are private. The extent of investigations and the procedure to be followed is determined by the chair, taking into account the purpose of the investigation, the principles and objectives of International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and the lessons that the chair expects to draw from the accident or incident for the improvement of safety. If in the course of an investigation it becomes known or is suspected that an act of unlawful interference was involved in the accident or incident, the investigator-in-charge will, after consultation with the chair and the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority:\nimmediately inform the Philippine national police; or\ntake steps to ensure that the aviation security authorities of other concerned ICAO contracting states are informed of the fact.\nWhat liability regime governs death, injury and loss arising from air accidents?\nCommon carriers, including air carriers, are bound to observe extraordinary diligence in the vigilance over goods and for the safety of the passengers transported by them.\nA common carrier is bound to carry passengers safely as far as human care and foresight can provide, using the utmost diligence of cautious persons, with a due regard for all circumstances.\nIn case of death or injury to passengers, common carriers are presumed to have been at fault or to have acted negligently, unless they can prove that they observed extraordinary diligence.\nRegulatory notification\nWhat are the reporting requirements for air accidents?\nThe operator of any Philippine-registered civil aircraft, any state aircraft not operated by the military or any foreign aircraft must immediately and by the most expeditious means available notify the chairman of the Aircraft Accident Investigation and Inquiry Board under the Office of the Director General of the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority when an aircraft accident or incident listed in Implementing Standards (IS) 13.030, IS 13.175-1 to IS 13.175-3 occurs. This initial notification requirement also applies when an aircraft is overdue and is believed to have been involved in an accident.\nWhat rules govern the ownership of airports (both public and private)?\nAn airport intended for public use is a property of public dominion under the Civil Code and thus belongs to the state.\nAn owner of an airport used for private operations must be a Filipino citizen or a corporation or association organised under Filipino law, at least 60% of whose capital is owned by Filipino citizens.\nWhat is the authorisation procedure for the operation of airports?\nAerodrome certificateAn aerodrome or airport (ie, a defined area of land (including any buildings, installations and equipment) intended to be used either wholly or in part for the arrival, departure and surface movement of aircraft) may be operated only by a person that holds a valid certificate issued by Philippines Civil Aviation Authority for that aerodrome if it is used for:\nany international air transportation operation; or\nany national air transportation operation that is conducted using aircraft certified for more than 30 passenger seats.\nA person may apply to the authority for an aerodrome certificate in order to operate an aerodrome at the place specified in the application. The authority may grant either:\na temporary or interim aerodrome certificate, which is valid for six months; or\na final or permanent aerodrome certificate.\nPermit to operateOperators of airstrips or heliports conducting air transport operations or private operations using aircraft with fewer than 10 passenger seats must secure a permit to operate.\nWhat ongoing operating requirements apply (including obligations relating to safety, security and facilities maintenance)?\nThe Civil Aviation Regulations Governing Aerodromes require aerodrome operators to comply with standards and procedures for aerodromes used in air transport operations set out in the Manual of Standards for Aerodromes.\nOperating procedures are minimum arrangements required of the aerodrome operator to ensure the safe operation of the aerodrome, including:\nthe appointment of a reporting officer duly signed by a heliport operator with corresponding duties and responsibilities;\naerodrome serviceability inspection;\nemergency arrangements (eg, response times and exercises);\ncoordination with air traffic control (if applicable); and\ntraining of safety personnel.\nWhat airport charges apply and how are they regulated?\nThe Philippines Civil Aviation Authority imposes and fixes reasonable charges and fees for the use of government aerodromes or air navigation facilities, and fixes the reasonable charges to be imposed in the use of privately owned air navigation facilities and aerodromes. Airport charges may include airport terminal fees and travel taxes.\nWhat regulations govern access to airports?\nNo known laws restrict or qualify access to airports. Airport security regulations and procedures, which may restrict or qualify access to airports to a certain extent, are determined and implemented by each airport authority.\nIn addition, the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority, in coordination with the appropriate government agency tasked to provide airport security, is empowered to prescribe reasonable regulations, methods and procedures to ensure the safety of passengers and property.\nWhat regime governs the allocation of airport slots (including slot transfer, revocation and disputes)?\nSlots are allocated at airports using the Communication Navigation Surveillance System and the Air Traffic Management System.\nThe systems are communication, navigation and surveillance systems employing digital technologies, including satellite systems, together with various levels of automation, applied in support of a seamless global air-traffic management system.\nHow are ground handling services regulated?\nGround handling services are also subject to regulation by the Philippines Civil Aviation Authority. Ground handling personnel must obtain licences from the authority\u2019s licensing division by undergoing knowledge and skills examinations.\nGoverning regime\nDo any sector-specific competition regulatory/legal provisions apply to the aviation industry in your jurisdiction?\nThe Constitution prohibits and protects Filipino enterprises against unfair competition. However, there are no sector-specific competition rules that apply to aviation.\nThat said, general penal provisions in the Revised Penal Code punish any act that restrains free competition in the market. Further, the Republic Act 10667 (the Competition Act) prohibits anti-competitive agreements and the abuse of entities of their dominant position by engaging in conduct that would substantially prevent, restrict or lessen competition.\nCode sharing and joint ventures\nWhat (if any) competition concerns arise in relation to code sharing and air carrier joint ventures?\nUnder the Competition Act, each party to a joint venture agreement must notify the Competition Commission before signing the definitive agreement if:\nthe aggregate value of the assets that will be combined in the Philippines or contributed into the proposed joint venture exceeds Ps1 billion; or\nthe gross revenues generated in the Philippines by assets to be combined in the Philippines or contributed into the proposed joint venture exceed Ps1 billion.\nIn determining the assets of the joint venture, the following should be included:\nall assets which any entity contributing to the formation of the joint venture has agreed to transfer, or for which agreements have been secured for the joint venture to obtain at any time, whether or not such entity is subject to the requirements of the act; and\nany amount of credit or any obligations of the joint venture which any entity contributing to the formation has agreed to extend or guarantee, at any time.\nThe Competition Act is fairly new, and while no specific concerns have been raised with respect to code sharing, the act prohibits anti-competitive agreements and the abuse of dominant position by engaging in conduct that would substantially prevent, restrict or lessen competition.\nWhat rules govern state aid in the aviation industry? Do any exemptions apply?\nNo sector-specific rules regulate direct or indirect financial support to companies in the aviation sector.\nHowever, tax benefits may be granted to airlines operating under congressional franchise. These include tax benefits relating to the importation of aircraft, equipment and machinery, spare-part commissary and catering supplies, aviation fuel and oil and such other articles imported by and for the use of airlines operating under a congressional franchise. Moreover, all rentals, interest, fees and other charges paid by the franchisee to foreign or domestic lessors for the lease of aircraft, engines, spare parts, other flight or ground equipment and other personal property may be exempt from all taxes, provided that the liability for the payment of said taxes is assumed by the franchisee.\nHave there been any notable recent cases or rulings involving competition in the aviation industry?\nNo recent cases or rulings involve competition in the aviation industry.\nWhat aviation-related disputes typically arise in your jurisdiction and how are they usually resolved?\nTypical aviation-related disputes in the Philippines involve consumer protection and liability. Most cases are related to cancelled or delayed flights, lost or damaged cargo and aircraft accidents. The majority of these cases are settled with the complainant, while a few are resolved by the courts.\nUnder the Warsaw Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air (which the Philippines has ratified), an action for damages must be brought, at the plaintiff\u2019s discretion, in the territory of one of the contracting parties to such convention, either:\nbefore the court having jurisdiction where the carrier is ordinarily resident, has his or her principal place of business or has an establishment by which the contract has been made; or\nbefore the court having jurisdiction at the place of destination.",

        "raw_content": "Adesanya scores unanimous win over Silva in UFC 234\nThe matchup between Anderson Silva and Israel Adesanya was billed as a battle of old vs. new, the greatest striker in UFC history taking on the man anointed as The Next One.\nSomehow, the battle lived up to the billing, as the 43-year-old Silva coupled fight wisdom with flashes of his former self and made things highly competitive with the 29-year-old kickboxer.\nBut big things have been predicted of Adesanya for a reason, and he showed why in earning a tough unanimous decision victory in the main event of UFC 234 on Saturday night (Sunday afternoon local time). The judges\u2019 scores at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia were 29-28, 30-27, and 30-27 in favor of the Auckland resident by way of Nigeria.\n\u201cThis is crazy, this is like for a kid just to play. If I\u2019m playing basketball, to play Michael Jordan,\u201d Adesanya said. \u201cThis is it for me, I don\u2019t do EA Sports, this is for real.\u201d\nAdesanya was the faster of the two. He frequently changed angles and mixed up kicks and punches.\nSilva, however, looked at ease in the cage, using a mix of psychological warfare and occasional rushes forward to keep things interesting.\nWhile the fight had the vibe that either could land the KO at any time, Adesanya\u2019s gas tank proved the difference as he finished with a strong third round to seal the win.\nWith the victory, Adesanya improved to 16-0, 5-0 in the year since he debuted in the UFC.\nSilva (34-9, 1 no-contest), of Palos Verdes, Calif, by way of Brazil, whose middleweight title reign from 2006-13 remains the longest reign in UFC history, has dropped three of his past four.\nThe biggest blow of the card actually came earlier in the day, when the evening\u2019s scheduled main event was canceled.\nUFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker of Sydney, who was scheduled to defend his championship against Yuma, Ariz.\u2019s Kelvin Gastelum, was rushed into emergency surgery due to a hernia.\nThis caused Adesanya-Silva, the scheduled co-feature, to get bumped up to the main spot.",

Between them they have five Olympic Gold medals, one Silver, five Americas cup wins as either sailor or design coordinator and an astonishing eight Finn World Championships\nThe Trio will line up in perhaps the Solent's most competitive one-design class, although it should be noted that Ainslie and Simmer have both finished on the podium at previous Etchells world Championships so it's not exactly all new to them.\nFor details on how to join the fleet or for charter options for Sir Kenneth Preston Trophy contact David Franks +44 7768 063868\nOne slip, and the fleet is going to make you work for it This really is something you looked forward to.

        "raw_content": "Video Mobility and the new \u201cGeneration C\u201d\nHome \u00bb Video Mobility and the new \u201cGeneration C\u201d\nAt a recent Manufacturer\u2019s briefing I attended, the topic of videoconferencing in a mobile world was discussed. The thought was presented that you could now \u201c\u2026start a video conversation from your home (WiFi network), commute to the office (4G network), and walk to your desk (Office Wifi) all while maintaining the same video call. You are able to transition from one network to another while maintaining your same device IP address\u201d. Let\u2019s make it even more complicated, just for the fun of it. Suppose after getting off the bus you popped into Starbucks (Wifi access there, too!!) in your office building before heading up to your office. Sound familiar?\nAlthough you may be productive during this road trip, I highly doubt you would be able to maintain a videoconference call on a mobile device today. As you know, this scenario is not as seamless as it looks \u2013 and here\u2019s why. The continuous physical movement described would send a mobile device into a fit having to move from one network to another.\nThe fact of the matter is we now live in an era where we are:\nYou\u2019ve likely seen young adults constantly on their mobile devices everywhere they go. This generation, now called \u201cGen C\u201d, is the future of our workforce. Connecting with each other via video is assumed as part of that Gen-C ecosystem. Smart businesses had better adapt to this group\u2019s way of communicating.\nGen-C, as designated by Nielsen, states in their latest \u201cState of the Media: U.S. Digital Consumer Report\u201d that \u201c\u2026Americans 18-34 make up 23 percent of the U.S. population, yet they represent an outsized portion of consumers watching online video (27%), visiting social networking/blog sites (27%), owning tablets (33%) and using a smartphone (39%). Their ownership and use of connected devices makes them incredibly unique consumers, representing both a challenge and opportunity\u2026.\u201d This is even more prevalent in enterprises today as employers push productivity of its employees beyond the office space and defined work hours or time.\nThe challenges of integrating multivendor communication platforms of voice, video and messaging only address the first part of enabling Gen C. As I see it, the next part of this challenge is for Unified Communications solution developers like Microsoft, IBM, Siemens, Polycom and Cisco to tap into the always \u201cconnected\u201d workforce. Technologies such as Cisco\u2019s latest protocol stack \u2013LISP, will enable the Gen-C workforce to be always on and always \u201cConnected\u201d over video, including the marriage of Social Media to UC&C (Social Unified Communications). I believe Video Mobility will truly make video communications ubiquitous allowing for the next level of push/pull interactions between the enterprise and consumer space.\nThis blog was written by Vishal Brown and contains solely his own, personal opinions.

        "raw_content": "Sharp Healthcare To Pay $90,000 To Settle EEOC Disability Discrimination Suit\nJob Applicant Seeking a Surgical Technologist Position Was Perceived as Disabled and Denied Employment, Federal Agency Charged\nSAN DIEGO - Sharp Healthcare, one of the largest private employers in San Diego County will pay $90,000 and furnish remedial relief to settle a disability discrimination lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the federal agency announced today.\nAccording to EEOC, in 2012, Sandra Juarez applied for a surgical scrub technician position at the Sharp Memorial Outpatient Pavilion, a surgical center in San Diego. The applicant was offered the position contingent upon passing a post-offer medical examination. However, EEOC said that Sharp rescinded its employment offer after the exam due to a perceived disability. Sharp regarded Juarez as disabled due to a minor ankle ailment that would not have affected her job performance, EEOC said. After just a few months, the applicant was hired into the same position at another medical facility.\nAs part of the settlement by consent decree, Sharp, in addition to paying $90,000 to the job applicant, will retain an external equal employment monitor; review and revise disability accommodation policies and practices to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended; provide annual disability discrimination training for employees, supervisors, and managers who are involved in the accommodation process; post an employee notice; and undertake record keeping and reporting to EEOC. Among other things, the external equal employment monitor will review Sharp's policies and practices and assist Sharp with ADA compliance.\n\"We have seen an increase in employers failing to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act,\" said Anna Y. Park, regional attorney for EEOC's Los Angeles District, which includes San Diego in its jurisdiction. \"We encourage employers to ensure proper training regarding the hiring process to prevent disability discrimination and possible legal liability.\"\nEEOC filed its lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California (EEOC v. Sharp Healthcare, Case No. 3:15-cv-01936-H-KSC), asserting that Sharp had violated the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement. The ADA prohibits employment discrimination based on an actual disability or a perceived disability.\nSandra Juarez said, \"I am glad that Sharp agreed to make sure its hiring practices comply with the ADA so that people like me are no longer discriminated against and wrongly told that we cannot work due to a perceived disability. I hope others will benefit from this case because I stood up for myself with the help of the EEOC.\"\nChristopher Green, director of EEOC's San Diego Local Office, said, \"Prospective employees need to be evaluated based on their actual abilities to perform the essential functions of the job sought, not on their past medical history and stereotyping.\"\nOne of the six national priorities identified by EEOC's Strategic Enforcement Plan (SEP) is for the agency to eliminate barriers in recruitment and hiring by targeting recruitment and hiring practices that discriminate against people with disabilities which includes those perceived as disabled.",

        "raw_content": "Increasing incidence of severe Paracetamol hepatotoxicity\nAcetaminophen, also known as Paracetamol, poisoning has become the most common cause of acute liver failure in the United States.\nWhile attempted suicides still account for many cases, almost half are the result of unintentional overdose.\nAcetaminophen is the most widely used pain reliever in the United States -- 36 percent of Americans ingest it at least once a month -- but taking more than the recommended dose can lead to fatal liver injury.\nWhile intentional overdoses generally present early after ingestion and can be treated with N-Acetylcysteine ( NAC ), unintentional overdoses are usually not recognized until later. As a result, lead author Anne M. Larson, of the University of Washington and her colleagues suspected that patients with acute liver failure from unintentional Acetaminophen overdoses would have more severe disease and worse outcomes than patients with intentional overdoses.\nTo examine this hypothesis the researchers conducted a prospective study of patients presenting with acute liver disease to any of 22 academic centers participating in the Acute Liver Failure Study Group.\nOf 662 consecutive patients over a six-year period between 1998 and 2003, 275 had Acetaminophen-related acute liver failure. For each of these patients, the researchers gathered demographic and clinical information, including illness severity, history of Acetaminophen ingestion, and outcome.\nAcute liver failure cases attributed to Acetaminophen increased from 28 percent in 1998 to 51 percent in 2003. These patients were predominantly female ( 74 percent ) and Caucasian ( 88 percent ).\nWhile 44 percent had intentionally overdosed on the drug in suicide attempts, 48 percent had overdosed unintentionally, either by taking combinations of products containing Acetaminophen, or taking more than the recommended dosage of a single product over time. Of all patients with Acetaminophen-related acute liver failure, 74 died, 23 received liver transplants, and 178 survived without transplantation.\nThose who had unintentionally overdosed were older, used multiple Acetaminophen-containing medications more frequently and waited longer to seek care after their symptoms began. Most reported that they had been taking the medications specifically for pain. They were more likely to have severe hepatic encephalopathy than patients who had overdosed intentionally.\nSixty-three percent of patients who overdosed accidentally had been using prescription narcotic/Acetaminophen compounds. Thirty-eight percent had been using two Acetaminophen medications simultaneously. \" This suggests patients lack awareness of the hazards of over-the-counter Acetaminophen use in combination with prescribed agents,\" the researchers say.\nSome patients reported taking less than 4 grams of Acetaminophen per day before falling ill. \" Our data suggests that there is a narrow therapeutic margin and that consistent use of as little as 7.5 g/day may be hazardous,\" report the authors, who plan to investigate that issue in a future study. Their data also suggest, they say, that there is no chronic form of Acetaminophen injury, rather, a threshold of safety that, when breached, has devastating results.\nElsewhere in the world, unintentional overdosing is less common than intentional, so, the authors report, \"one of the most alarming findings in our study was that unintentional Acetaminophen overdose accounted for 50 percent of our cases.\"\nAlthough the incidence of acetaminophen overdose is still low compared to the millions of tablets consumed on a daily basis, the findings of this study were startling and led the authors to propose changes in the way Acetaminophen is sold.\n\" Efforts to limit over-the-counter package size and to restrict the prescription of narcotic-Acetaminophen combinations ( or to separate the narcotic from the Acetaminophen ) may be necessary to reduce the incidence of this increasingly recognized but preventable cause of acute liver failure in the United States,\" they conclude.\nSource: Hepatology, 2005",

The penetration of the Internet to the masses is increasing, as well as the public\u2019s understanding of the mechanics of cashback services. In 2011, the Ebates cashback service was bought for a billion dollars and at that time only showed its audience of 8 million against 300 million Americans. There are not many competitors on the market, there are several dozens of services, 90% of which have very weak products. All this suggests that this market is very interesting and promising, where you can and should earn money, and with our licensed product you can enter it in 1 month!\nWhy not develop a service yourself?\nUsually, the development of a cashback service takes from 1.5 years, the same can be done by finishing it and adapting it to the realities of the real market. This means 1.5 years of lost profits and the subsequent adaptation of the product to changes. Our offer allows you to get your own cashback service, including our 9 years of experience, to deploy it on your own servers, on one of the coolest Django / python frameworks in the world, which made great products like Instagram and which allows you to scale very cheaply your product, in just 1 month.

Our database integrates several thousand stores, information on which is updated in real time.\nHow to bypass existing competitors?\nThe market is quite large and poorly developed, so there will still be enough space on it for a long time. On the other hand, you can come up with some kind of feature - something that will be your competitive advantage. Here are some examples of how you can bypass other cashback services:\n- more profitable cashback percentage for users\n-best referral program\n-cashback in cryptocurrency\n-cashback service for clients of your other business\n-industry cashback services: tourism, Chinese goods, coupons, movies, music, clothing ...\n-cashback service in telegram bot\n-artificial intelligence based cashback service\nAnd many other ideas that we can help you work out based on our experience with American companies and Silicon Valley.\nWhy do we sell this product if everything is so good?\nWe have our own cashback services in the American, Russian and Indian markets, which daily bring us profit, which we constantly refine and implement new chips.

        "raw_content": "Heart guitarist Nancy Wilson said a \u201cbig offer\u201d had been extended to the band for a reunion tour in 2019, and that the signs of it taking place are looking good. She and singer Ann Wilson put the band on hiatus in 2016 after a family dispute left the sisters struggling to maintain communication.\n\u201cI\u2019ve gotta say, it's looking really good for a Heart reunion tour,\u201d Nancy told the Let There Be Talk podcast. \u201cThere's a big offer up there on the table. Me and Ann are talking, so we'll keep talking.\u201d\nAsked about who had opened communications between them, she replied, \u201cI've been sort of [trying] for a while, but she was kind of busy and, I think, scared to talk. And I kind of said, 'I'm not ever gonna confront you about anything, but there is this huge offer on the table, so we should talk \u2013 just the two of us.' So we're in that process right now. It's kind of exciting.\u201d\nThe dispute flared after Ann\u2019s husband, Dean Wetter, was accused of having assaulted one of Nancy\u2019s children while the band and their families were on tour. Legal action followed and the incident caused a rift, which Ann had said in 2017 probably wouldn\u2019t be permanent.\n\u201cThere was a family drama that was highly uncalled for and unnecessary and hurtful,\u201d Nancy said in the new interview, \u201cand it was just one of those things that takes time to get past. So, a couple of years have gone by. It's not anything that Ann ever did wrong, or I ever did wrong, but it's just one of those family dramas that just happened, and it just kind of poisoned the atmosphere for a while there. So it's good. I've had a real positive feeling about now that I'm communicating directly more with Ann.\u201d\nSince the break, Nancy formed her band Roadcase Royale, featuring other members of Heart, while Ann pursued her solo career.\nHeart Albums Ranked\nSource: Heart Have \u2018Big\u2019 Reunion Offer, Says Nancy Wilson",

        "raw_content": "8-Year-Old in San Bernardino Shooting Has Died; Gunman Identified\nAn 8-year-old boy who was shot during Monday's murder-suicide at a San Bernardino, California, elementary school has died from his injuries. The boy, Jonathan Martinez, had been hiding behind his teacher when the gunman arrived and shot them both.\nA second child, age 9, was also shot, but he is now in stable condition at Loma Linda University Medical Center, according to San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan.\nMore details are emerging the day after the tragic events that shook this small city in Southern California. The shooter, Cedric Anderson of nearby Riverside, apparently walked into the classroom for special-needs children, where his estranged wife, Karen Elaine Smith was teaching. He said nothing, and opened fire with a revolver, killing Smith immediately and hitting Martinez and the other student. Anderson then reloaded his gun, and shot and killed himself.\nThere were 15 total students and two teaching aides in the North Park Elementary School classroom when the incident occurred. Officials say that there is \"no reason to believe\" any children were specifically targeted.\nAnderson and Smith had been married only three months, but had recently separated. Anderson had a criminal record that included arrests for domestic violence, weapons and drug possession. \"He simply said he was there to drop something off there with his wife,\" Chief Burguan told reporters when asked about how Anderson managed to get inside the school carrying a gun.\nAnother child who was in the class, Marissa Perez, 9, spoke with The Los Angeles Times about what she saw. \"The boy just walked in with the gun,\" Marissa said. \"He just shot everywhere. I went under the table and then I saw a teacher run out. So I just ran out. My friend and my teacher, they got shot.\"\nThe San Bernardino community, traumatized by the horrific shooting, came together Monday night at a candlelight vigil and at a service at Our Lady of the Assumption Roman Catholic Church. \"Sometimes all we can do is cry, and today is the day for that,\" Bishop Gerald Barnes told those in attendance. \"We\u2019ll get up again, we\u2019ll move on, we\u2019ll become stronger. But today is the day to cry that we have come to such a state.\"",

        "raw_content": "Cowboys Ready For Rematch With Eagles\nARLINGTON, TX - NOVEMBER 27: Darren Sproles #43 of the Philadelphia Eagles breaks away from James Hanna #84 of the Dallas Cowboys on a punt return in the second half at AT&T Stadium on November 27, 2014 in Arlington, Texas. (Photo by Tom Pennington/Getty Images)\nIRVING, Texas \u2014 Tony Romo kept his notes on Philadelphia after Dallas' blowout loss on Thanksgiving with the NFC East lead on the line.\nThey will come in handy for the rematch two weeks later with the teams again tied atop the division at 9-4 following the Eagles' loss to Seattle.\nThe Dallas quarterback said the challenge before last week's 41-28 win over the Bears was not letting his mind drift to the defensive scheme the Eagles used in one of Romo's worst games of the season. Philadelphia won the first meeting 33-10.\n\"I think that we'll be able to do some things that we wanted to do previously,\" Romo said of the Eagles, not long after beating Chicago in yet another efficient showing. \"A lot of times you just forget and go right on. Well, I didn't want to forget everything because I wanted to utilize it again. That's a long way of saying you've got to compartmentalize and figure it out and move on and come right back to it.\"\nReceiver Dez Bryant admitted in the moments after Philadelphia's easy victory that he couldn't wait to face the Eagles again. Now that the rematch has arrived, the Cowboys have to figure out why NFL rushing leader DeMarco Murray had one of just two games this season without at least 100 yards.\nThe Cowboys also had trouble stopping the run, with LeSean McCoy getting a season-high 159 yards \u2014 the most Dallas has allowed this year and one of only two 100-yard games for opposing rushers.\n\"We can look at different things in that game and say we did things the right away and we had some success, we didn't do things the right way and they had some success,\" said coach Jason Garrett, who wasn't very interested Monday in revisiting details of the first meeting. \"Control what we can control. That game is done with. It's been done with. It ain't coming back.\"\nThe biggest difference is that the Cowboys have 10 days to prepare for the rematch after getting about 90 hours between the end of a Sunday night win over the New York Giants and the Thanksgiving afternoon kickoff against the Eagles.\nPhiladelphia was in the same position the last time, although with a few more hours while having to make the long trip. This time the Eagles get a regular week.\nRomo never considered the short week an issue despite that being the first time he had done it on his surgically repaired back. He later acknowledged that he didn't take an injection for pain against the Eagles, and said it was a mistake. On two of his four sacks in the first meeting, Romo quickly went down without trying to escape.\n\"Getting a full week is a game-changer I feel like,\" said Romo, who also acknowledged he was overly protective of his back against the Eagles. \"I think it will be that way the rest of the year.\"\nAfter the Chicago game, Romo said he was dealing with a rib issue in addition to a back injury that wasn't related to surgery last December. Garrett said Monday that Romo had rib cartilage damage, not a fracture as the quarterback indicated Thursday.\nEither way, another few days off not too far removed from the bye is helping the 34-year-old Romo.\n\"It's getting toward the end I feel like,\" Romo said of the injuries. \"It'll be nice when it's just about the back improving instead of all the other little junk.\"\nPhiladelphia's loss to Seattle was a bit of a mixed blessing for Dallas because if the Cowboys can't win the rematch, their likely path to the playoffs through the wild-card race got more complicated with the Seahawks' win.\nThe best illustration: Seattle's win meant Dallas would be out if the playoffs started this week.\nGarrett isn't worried about that illustration.\n\"The biggest thing we have to do is focus on ourselves,\" Garrett said. \"We control our destiny as a team. If we focus on doing what we need to do to play our best football, things will all work out fine.\"\nStarting with take two against the Eagles.\nFiled Under: Dallas Cowboys, NFL, Philadelphia Eagles, Tony Romo\nCategories: Eagles, Football, NFL, Philadelphia Sports, Sports, Sports News",

Guests filled the lobby of the Grand Ballroom to welcome the reigning Miss America 2015, Kira Kazantev. Also in attendance were honorable Lieutenant Governor Kim Guadagno, honorable Mayor Don Guardian, Executive Chairman and Ceo Sam Haskell, III, Chief Operating Officer Josh Randle, and more.\nKazantev kicked off the conference by reflecting on her visits to the Children\u2019s Miracle Network Hospitals around the world, sitting in on over 14 different nation shows and appearances, and her honorable visit to our troops across the country. Kazantev states that the best part of her trip was taking a piece home to the troops.\n\u201cThe Miss America Organization provides such a moral booster,\u201d states Guadagno. \u201cYou can not put a price on this organization. It represents the brightest and smartest women in America.\u201d\nIn just a few weeks Kazantev will be crowning the next Miss America but reminds the audience that this time last year she was working in a restaurant in New York City preparing for Miss America. The daughter of two Russian immigrant parents and yet pursing and achieving the America Dream. Last year, the Miss America pageant was the number one non-sports program watched in the country.\n\u201cDon\u2019t loose sight that we provide assistance for millions of women in the country,\u201d states Haskell.\nFollowing the ceremony was the official ribbon cutting at the Claridge Park where Kazantev officially held the big red scissors and cut the red ribbon. The Claridge Hotel was happy to announce the unveiling of the new offices as tours preceded the event.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blogs \u00bb Charles Gaba's blog \u00bb Updated: I don't want to hear one more \"Obamacare is 2,000 pages long!!\" attack. EVER.\nUpdated: I don't want to hear one more \"Obamacare is 2,000 pages long!!\" attack. EVER.\nThroughout the long, tortured life of the Affordable Care Act over the past 5+ years, one of the easiest attack points has been to go after the sheer bulk and complexity of the law itself. Whether you're referring to the actual wording of the law (supposedly a whopping 2,700 pages long) or, even worse, the 8-foot tall stack of 10,000 - 20,000 pages of regulations related to \"Obamacare\", Republican politicians, pundits and talk show hosts have used the immense size of the ACA itself to go after it.\nI'm bringing this up now because my big project the past week or two has been to track down the various 2016 policy premium rate change requests for the companies operating both on and off the ACA exchanges in all 50 states (+DC, of course).\nSo far I've done a pretty good job with OR, WA, CT, MI, DC and VT...and I have partial data for MD & IA.\nTonight I decided to tackle Virginia. The good news is that unlike some states, their rate filing database is actually pretty straightforward and easy to search. Furthermore, the actual filing forms seem to be pretty consistent.\nThe bad news is...well, check this out:\nYes, that's right. The 103 MB rate filing form for Aetna's individual market PPO policies in Virginia is over 6,000 pages long.\nFor one company. In just one state. For just one category of their insurance policies.\nThink that's bad? If and when I ever slog through that behemoth to hunt down the average rate increase for Aetna PPO policies, I still have 30 more to go...for Virginia alone:\nHere's the thing about all of this: Yes, I'm sure that some of this insane mountain of paperwork is due to ACA requirements. However, the bulk a huge chunk of these thousand-page-plus documents already had to be created by the companies before the ACA came along. The company actuaries have had to dig through all sorts of data like this in order to figure out how much to change their pricing from year to year for decades.\nIn light of that, \"Obamacare is 2,000 pages long!!\" seems like a wonder of brevity by comparison.\nUpdate: OK, to be fair, not all of the filings are this insanely lengthy; some are \"only\" 40-50 pages. In addition, a couple of folks in the comments in a position to know such things inform me that a larger portion of this paperwork is due to ACA requirements than I had thought. Fair enough. However, even if, say, 75% of it is ACA-specific, the example above would still have been 1,500 pages with or without the ACA.\nEven so, my larger point still stands: The private insurance industry has always required an absurd amount of paperwork through the years. In addition, according to the Washington Post fact-checker linked to above:\nRegular readers know that we frown on such page-counting exercises, since we\u2019re not sure what it really tells you. In the case of the health-care law, businesses actually have been seeking detailed regulations so they know exactly what to expect.\nIn other words, as Rebecca Stob (an actuary in Washington State) notes in the comments below:\n...a lot of that is overall a good thing because it forces a level of standardization, transparency and oversight into the mechanics of how the risk pools in the states are operating and how carriers are complying with the new rules and mechanisms that prevent discriminatory benefits and pricing and cherry picking the risk pool.\nFurthermore, from the same Washington Post article:\nAnd using the same methods used by the McConnell team, we found tens of thousands of pages of regulations for Medicare Advantage and the prescription drug plan (Medicare Part D), which were pushed by Republicans.\nThe larger point is this: Health insurance is a complicated business. Always has been, always will be...especially when it includes a profit motive. Fifty states with hundreds of companies offering thousands of different policies to millions of people adds up to a buttload of paperwork and data, so any law relating to all of that is going to be inherently lengthy...whether created by Democrats or Republicans.\nMeanwhile, I'm off to slog through the filings again...",

NMPF said the study's authors need to clarify that any significant dairy-related food safety risk is only associated with the consumption of raw milk, not commercially available dairy foods sold in the United States and other developed nations.\nPrepared by a graduate student at McGill University of Canada and published in the Journal of Food Science and Technology, the study compared the nutritional profiles of four imitation dairy beverages and conventional cow's milk. The research demonstrated that none of the plant-based imitations replicates the nutritional benefits of real milk. However, the study also published inaccurate claims that cow's milk \"has been associated to cause wide spread disease outbreaks around the world.\"\nIn a letter to the study's authors, NMPF rebuked the claim, saying it is actually raw, unpasteurized milk that is a demonstrable source of pathogens.\nDr. Beth Briczinski, NMPF's vice president for dairy foods and nutrition, said the media attention to this inaccurate claim was disconcerting and had to be addressed.\n\"Cow's milk is one of the most regulated food products on the market today,\" she said. \"To publish such an egregious claim in a scientific journal could damage consumer trust in this great beverage, which is why we insist that the study's authors issue a correction to the journal article and revise its press release immediately.\"\nThe public health risk associated with raw milk is supported by scientific evidence spanning over one hundred years. Raw milk is a key vehicle in the transmission of human pathogens like E. coli, Listeria and Salmonella, the letter said. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have reported that over 70 percent of foodborne outbreaks involving dairy are attributed to raw milk. It is illegal in both Canada and many U.S. states.\n\"There is no basis for your statement linking milk consumption to worldwide foodborne outbreaks,\" said the letter. \"Such a comment has the potential to do incredible, unjustified harm to our industry and has the potential to cause fear in consumers who are seeking nutrient-dense and safe products for themselves and their families.\"",

In order to preserve and prepare animal skins for taxidermy the bodies of the animals must first be measured and modeled.

Taxidermists usually take photographs of the animals so they can use them as references for creating the stuffed versions.

After the models are ready taxidermists reapply the animals\u2019 skin to make the animal look life-like. According to the website www.career-descriptions.co.uk taxidermists sometimes freeze-dry animals after they position them into life-like poses. This method however can only be used on certain types of animals. Taxidermists usually work in workshops where they have access to all the necessary tools and they usually either work for museums or they are self-employed. Besides spending time in their workshop taxidermists often spend time outdoors looking for animals that can be used for taxidermy purposes. Many taxidermists have an educational background in either animal biology or natural history but there is no formal educational requirement for this profession. Most however learn their skills from attending classes or seminars. The website www.pcsscreston.ca reports that the salary range for taxidermists is $15000 to $40000.\nTasks: Preserves and prepares deceased animals for display.\nMounts the skin of animals on display boards.\nDries and tans animal skins.\nMakes lifelike pieces of art.\nAlso Called: Museum Taxidermist\nAnimal Skin Preservationist\nDermosculpturist\nAdditional Resources: http://www.career-descriptions.co.uk/taxidermist-career-description.htm\nhttp://www.pcsscreston.ca/Career-Cruising/careers/415.htm\nhttp://www.mymajors.com/careers-and-jobs/Taxidermist",

        "raw_content": "The UN has updated population statistics. It's grim. Global population is expected to hit 9.2 billion by midcentury, and most of that growth will happen in all the wrong places. A number of countries that really can't support a tripling of their population in 40 years, like Niger and Afghanistan, are about to experience one nonetheless. Niger heads up the field in alarmingly low median age, at 15.1. Not much better is Zimbabwe, at 15.5, though that number is skewed by their awful life expectancy of 38 years.\nAnother interesting statistic is how the male-female ratio by country, which in normal populations is almost always .95-.99 (ie. there are 95-99 males for every 100 females), is scarily skewed the opposite way in a handful of countries. Sure, there's the predictably froth-inducing figure in China (1.08), but that's nothing on Bahrain (1.35), which has eclipsed Oman (1.29) as having the lowest percentage of women on Earth. The Saudis aren't far behind, at 1.23.\nThey may just be data charts, but they're fascinating in how much they reveal about the society in question. Check it out.",

        "title": "Ancient Indias Maritime Developments - Ancient Indian Wisdom",
        "raw_content": "Home / CONTRIBUTION TO SCIENCE \u2013 OVERVIEW / Ancient Indian Contributions to Science / Ancient Indias Maritime Developments\nNCIENT INDIAS MARITIME DEVELOPMENTS\nThis article is written specially for our web site by the author based on the material of his book : \u201cAdvancements of Ancient India\u2019s Vedic Culture\u201d) by Stephen Knapp\nIndia had greatly advanced in its ancient maritime developments. From the old Vedic texts, we can see how far back in time ancient Vedic culture used ships, navigation processes, and how vast was its sea trade. This article describes its sea power and navy, and describes the quality and technology of the ships they made. The article also narrates how the ship-making industry of India was killed by the British to protect its own home business, obviously of an inferior quality.\nNow let us take a look at India\u2019s ancient maritime history, which is referenced as far back as the early Vedic texts. The fact is that the ancient Vedic texts, such as the Rig Veda, Shatapatha Brahmana, and others refer to the undertaking of naval expeditions and travel to distant places by sea-routes that were well-known at the time. For example, the Rig Veda (1.25.7) talks of how Varuna has full knowledge of all the sea routes that were followed by ships. Then (2.48.3) we find wherein merchants would also send out ships for foreign trade. 1 Another verse (1.56.2) speaks of merchants going everywhere and frequently to every part of the sea. Another verse (7.88.3-4) relates that there was a voyage by Vasistha and Varuna in a ship skillfully fitted for the trip. Then there is a verse (1.116.3) that tells of an expedition on which Tugra, the Rishi king, sent his son Bhujya against some of his enemies in the distant islands. However, Bhujya becomes ship wrecked by a storm, with all of his followers on the ocean, \u201cWhere there is no support, or rest for the foot or hand.\u201d From this he is rescued by the twin Ashvins in their hundred oared galley. Similarly, the Atharva Veda mentions boats which are spacious, well constructed and comfortable.\nAn assortment of other books also referred to sea voyages of the ancient mariners. Of course, we know that the epics, such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata referred to ships and sea travel, but the Puranas also had stories of sea voyages, such as the Matsya, Varaha, and Markandeya Puranas. Other works of Classical Sanskrit included them as well, such as Raghuvamsha, Ratnavali, Dashakumaracharita, Kathasaritsagara, Panchatantra, Rajatarangini, etc.\nThe Shangam works of the South Indian Tamils have numerous references to the shipping activities that went on in that region, along with the ports, articles of trade, etc. Such texts included Shilappadikaram Manimekalai, Pattinappalai, Maduraikhanji, Ahananuru, Purananuru, etc. 2\nIn the Ramayana, in the Kishkindha Kand, Sugriva gives directions to the Vanar leaders for going to the cities and mountains in the islands of the sea, mainly Yavadvipa (Java) and Suvarna Dvipa (Sumatra) in the quest to find Sita. The Ramayana also talks of how merchants traveled beyond the sea and would bring presents to the kings.\nIn the Mahabharata (Sabha Parva), Sahadeva is mentioned as going to several islands in the sea to defeat the kings. In the Karna Parva, the soldiers of the Kauravas are described as merchants, \u201cwhose ships have come to grief in the midst of the unfathomable deep.\u201d And in the same Parva, a verse describes how the sons of Draupadi rescued their maternal uncles by supplying them with chariots, \u201cAs ship wrecked merchants are rescued by means of boats.\u201d However, another verse therein relates how the Pandavas escaped from the destruction planned for them with the help of a ship that was secretly and especially constructed for the purpose under the orders of the kind hearted Vidura. The ship was large, and provided machinery and all kinds of weapons of war, and able to defy storms and waves.\nActually, ships have been mentioned in numerous verses through the Vedic literature, such as in the Vedas, Brahmanas, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Puranas, and so on. For example, in the Ayodhya Kaand of Valmiki\u2019s Ramayana, you can find the description of such big ships that could hold hundreds of warriors: \u201cHundreds of oarsmen inspire five hundred ships carrying hundreds of ready warriors.\u201d The conclusion is that ships have been in use since the Vedic age.\nAlso, in Kautilya\u2019s Arthashastra we find information of the complete arrangements of boats maintained by the navy and the state. It also contains information on the duties of the various personnel on a ship. For example, the Navadhyaksha is the superintendent of the ship, Niyamaka is the steerman, and Datragrahaka is the holder of the needle, or the compass. Differences in ships are also described regarding the location of the cabins and the purpose of the ship itself. 3\nIn the Brihat Samhita by Varahamihir of the 5th century, and in the Sanskrit text Yukti Kalpataru by Narapati Raja Bhoj of the 11th century, you can find information about an assortment of ships, sizes, and materials with which they were built, and the process of manufacturing them. For example, one quote explains, \u201cShips made of timbers of different classes possess different properties. Ships built of inferior wood do not last long and rot quickly. Such ships are liable to split with a slight shock.\u201d 4 It also gives further details on how to furnish a ship for accommodating the comfort of passengers, or for transporting goods, animals, or royal artifacts. The ships of three different sizes were the Sarvamandira, Madhyamarmandira, and the Agramandira.\nAncient Indians traveled to various parts of the world not only for purposes of trade, but to also propagate their culture. This is how the Vedic influence spread around the world. For example, Kaundinya crossed the ocean and reached south-east Asia. From there, evidence shows that rock inscriptions in the Sun Temple at Jawayuko in the Yukatan province of Mexico mentions the arrival of the great sailor Vusulin in Shaka Samvat 854, or the year 932. In the excavations in Lothal in Gujarat, it seems that trade with countries like Egypt was carried out from that port around 2540 BCE. Then from 2350 BCE, small boats docked here, which necessitated the construction of the harbor for big ships, which was followed by the city that was built around it. 5\nIn the period of 984-1042 CE, the Chola kings dispatched great naval expeditions which occupied parts of Burma, Malaya and Sumatra, while suppressing the piratical activities of the Sumatra warlords.\nIn 1292 CE, when Marco Polo came to India, he described Indian ships as \u201cbuilt of fir timber, having a sheath of boards laid over the planking in every part, caulked with iron nails. The bottoms were smeared with a preparation of quicklime and hemp, pounded together and mixed with oil from a certain tree which is a better material than pitch.\u201d He further writes: \u201cShips had double boards which were joined together. They were made strong with iron nails and the crevices were filled with a special kind of gum. These ships were so huge that about 300 boatmen were needed to row them. About 3000-4000 gunny bags could be loaded in each ship. They had many small rooms for people to live in. These rooms had arrangements for all kinds of comfort. Then when the bottom or the base started to get spoiled, a new layer would be added on. Sometimes, a boat would have even six layers, one on top of another.\u201d\nA fourteenth century description of an Indian ship credits it with a carrying capacity of over 700 people giving a fair idea of both ship building skills and maritime ability of seamen who could successfully man such large vessels.\nAnother account of the early fifteenth century describes Indian ships as being built in compartments so that even if one part was shattered, the next remained intact, thus enabling the ship to complete her voyage. This was perhaps a forerunner of the modern day subdivision of ships into watertight compartments, a concept then totally alien to the Europeans.\nAnother traveler named Nicolo Conti came to India in the 15th century. He wrote: \u201cThe Indian ships are much bigger than our ships. Their bases are made of three boards in such a way that they can face formidable storms. Some ships are made in such a way that if one part becomes useless, the rest of the parts can do the work.\u201d\nAnother visitor to India named Bertham writes: \u201cThe wooden boards are joined in such a way that not even a drop of water can go through it. Sometimes, the masts of cotton are placed in such a way that a lot of air can be filled in. The anchors were sometimes made of heavy stones. It would take a ship eight days to come from Iran to Cape Comorin (Kanyakumari).\u201d 6\nThe famous archeologist Padmashri Dr. Vishnu Shridhar Wakankar says, \u201cI had gone to England for studies, I was told about Vasco da Gama\u2019s diary available in a museum in which he has described how he came to India.\u201d He writes that when his ship came near Zanzibar in Africa, he saw a ship three times bigger than the size of his ship. He took an African interpreter to meet the owner of that ship who was a Gujarati trader named Chandan who used to bring pine wood and teak from India along with spices and take back diamonds to the port of Cochin. When Vasco da Gama went to meet him, Chandan was sitting in ordinary attire, on a cot. When the trader asked Vasco where he was going, the latter said that he was going to visit India. At this, the trader said that he was going back to India the very next day and if he wanted, he could follow him. So, Vasco da Gama came to India following him. 7\nSir William Jones, in The Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society-1901, relates how the Hindus, \u201cmust have been navigators in the age of Manu, because bottomry is mentioned in it. In the Ramayana, practice of bottomry is distinctly noticed.\u201d Bottomry is the lending of insurance money for marine activities. 8\nFurther evidence shows that shipping from Bharatvarsha was a national enterprise and the country was a leader in world trade relations amongst such people as the Phoenicians, Jews, Assyrians, Greeks, and Romans in ancient times, and more recently with Egyptians, Romans, Turks, Portuguese, Dutch, and English.\nThe simple fact is that India\u2019s maritime history predates the birth of Western civilization. The world\u2019s first tidal dock is believed to have been built at Lothal around 2300 BCE during the Harappan civilization, near the present day Mangrol harbor on the Gujarat coast.\nThe earliest portrayal of an Indian ship is found on an Indus Valley seal from about 3000 BCE. The ship is shown being elevated at both bow and stern, with a cabin in the center. It is likely to have been a simple river boat since it is lacking a mast. Another drawing found at Mohendjodaro on a potsherd shows a boat with a single mast and two men sitting at the far end away from the mast. Another painting of the landing of Vijaya Simha in Ceylon (543 BCE) with many ships is found amongst the Ajanta caves.\nThat India had a vast maritime trade, even with Greece, is shown by the coins of the Trojans (98-117 CE) and Hadrians (117-138 CE) found on the eastern coast of India, near Pondicherry. This is evidence that Greek traders had to have visited and traded in the port cities of that area.\nKamlesh Kapur explains more about this in Portraits of a Nation: History of India: \u201cRecent archeological excavations at Pattanam in Ernakulum district of Kerala by the Kerala council for Historical Research (KCHR) indicate that there was thriving naval trade around 500 B.C. According to the Director of KCHR, \u2018The artifacts recovered from the excavation site suggest that Pattanam, with a hinterland port and a multicultural settlement, may have had links with the Mediterranean, the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea, and the South China Sea rims since the Early Historic Period of South India.\u2019 KCHR has been getting charcoal samples examined through C-14 and other modern methods to determine the age of these relics. These artifacts were from the Iron Age layer. The archeologists also recovered some parts of a wooden canoe and bollards (stakes used to secure canoes and boats) from a waterlogged area at the site.\n\u201cThe radiocarbon dating from Pattanam will aid in understanding the Iron Age chronology of Kerala. So far, testing done by C-14 method to determine the ages of the charcoal samples from the lowermost sand deposits in the trenches at Pattanam suggests that their calibrated dates range from 1300 B.C. to 200 B.C. and 2500 B.C. to 100 A.D. Thus there is strong evidence that Kerala had sea trade with several countries in Western Asia and Eastern Europe from the second millennia B.C. onwards.\u201d 9\nThe influence of the sea on Indian Kingdoms continued to grow with the passage of time. North-west India came under the influence of Alexander the great, who built a harbor at Patala where the Indus branches into two, just before entering the Arabian sea. His army returned to Mesopotamia in ships built in Sindh. Records show that in the period after his conquest, Chandragupta Maurya established an admiralty division under a Superintendent of ships as part of his war office, with a charter including responsibility for navigation on the seas, oceans, lakes and rivers. History records that Indian ships traded with countries as far as Java and Sumatra, and available evidence indicates that they were also trading with other countries in the Pacific, and Indian Ocean. Even before Alexander, there were references to India in Greek works and India had a flourishing trade with Rome. Roman writer Pliny speaks of Indian traders carrying away large quantity of gold from Rome, in payment for much sought exports such as precious stones, skins, clothes, spices, sandalwood, perfumes, herbs, and indigo.\nThe port cities included such places as Nagapattinam, Arikamedu (near Pondicherry), Udipi, Kollam, Tuticorin, Mamallapuram, Mangalore, Kannur, Thane, and others, which facilitated trade with many foreign areas, such as Indonesia, China, Arabia, Rome, and countries in Africa. Many other inland towns and cities contributed to this trade, such as Madurai, Thanjavur, Tiruchirapalli, Ellora, Melkote, Nasik, and so on, which became large centers of trade. Silk, cotton, sandalwood, woodwork, and various types of produce were the main items of trade.\nTrades of this volume could not have been conducted over the countries without appropriate navigational skills. Two Indian astronomers of repute, Aryabhatta and Varahamihira, having accurately mapped the positions of celestial bodies, developed a method of computing a ship=s position from the stars. A crude forerunner of the modern magnetic compass called Matsyayantra was being used around the fourth or fifth century CE. Between the fifth and tenth centuries CE, the Vijayanagara and Kalinga kingdoms of southern and eastern India had established their rules over Malaya, Sumatra and Western Java. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands then served as an important midway for trade between the Indian peninsula and these kingdoms, as also with China. The daily revenue from the western regions in the period 844-848 CE was estimated to be 200 maunds (eight tons) of gold.\nNot only was there trade from ancient going to many areas of the globe, but other countries may have also been going to India. It is reported that marine archaeologists have found a stone anchor in the Gulf of Khambhat with a design similar to the ones used by Chinese and Japanese ships in the 12th\u201114th century CE, giving the first offshore evidence indicating India\u2019s trade relations with the two Asian countries. The stone anchor was found during an exploration headed by two marine archaeologists, A. S. Gaur and B. K. Bhatt, from the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO). \u201cThough there are a lot of references and Chinese pottery (found from coastal sites) indicating trade relations between the two Asian nations (China and Japan) in the past, but this anchor from the offshore region is the first evidence from Indian waters. Similar type of anchors have been found from Chinese and Japanese waters,\u201d stated Mr. Gaur. 10\nFurthermore, another recent finding that shows the ancient advancement of Indian maritime capabilities is the evidence that Indian traders may have gone to South America long before Columbus discovered America. Investigation of botanical remains from an ancient site, Tokwa at the confluence of Belan and Adwa rivers, Mirzapur District, Uttar Pradesh (UP), has brought to light the agriculture\u2011based subsistence economy during the Neolithic culture (3rd\u20112nd millennium BCE). They subsisted on various cereals, supplemented by leguminous seeds. Evidence of oil\u2011yielding crops has been documented by recovery of seeds of Linum usitatissimum and Brassica juncea. Fortuitously, an important find among the botanical remains is the seeds of South American custard apple, regarded to have been introduced by the Portuguese in the 16th century. The remains of custard apple as fruit coat and seeds have also been recorded from other sites in the Indian archaeological context, during the Kushana Period (CE 100\u2011300) in Punjab and Early Iron Age (1300\u2011700 BCE) in UP. The factual remains of custard apple, along with other stray finds, favor a group of specialists to support with diverse arguments the reasoning of Asian-American contacts way before the discovery of America by Columbus in 1498. 11\nTHE INDIAN NAVY AND SEA POWER\nIn the south especially there was an established navy in many coastal areas. The long coastline with many ports for trade for sending out ships and receiving traders from foreign countries necessitated a navy to protect the ships and ports from enemies. According to records, the Pallavas, Cholas, Pandyas, and the Cheras had large naval fleets of ocean bound ships because these rulers also led expeditions against other places, such as Malayasia, Bali, and Ceylon.\nThe decline of Indian maritime power commenced in the thirteenth century, and Indian sea power had almost disappeared when the Portuguese arrived in India. They later imposed a system of license for trade, and set upon all Asian vessels not holding permits from them.\nThe piratical activities of the Portuguese were challenged by the Zamorins of Calicut when Vasco da Gama, after obtaining permission to trade, refused to pay the customs levy. Two major engagements were fought during this period. First, the battle of Cochin in 1503, clearly revealed the weakness of Indian navies and indicated to the Europeans an opportunity for building a naval empire. The second engagement off Diu in 1509 gave the Portuguese mastery over Indian seas and laid the foundation of European control over Indian waters for the next 400 years.\nIndian maritime interests witnessed a remarkable resurgence in the late seventeenth century, when the Siddhis of Janjira allied with the Moghuls to become a major power on the West Coast. This led the Maratha King Shivaji to create his own fleet, which was commanded by able admirals like Sidhoji Gujar and Kanhoji Angre. The Maratha Fleet along with the legendary Kanhoji Angre held sway over the entire Konkan Coast keeping the English, Dutch and Portuguese at bay. The death of Angre in 1729 left a vacuum and resulted in the decline of Maratha sea power. Despite the eclipse of Indian kingdoms with the advent of western domination, Indian shipbuilders continued to hold their own well into the nineteenth century. The Bombay Dock completed in July 1735 is in use even today. Ships displacing 800 to 1000 tons were built of teak at Daman and were superior to their British counterparts both in design and durability. This so agitated British shipbuilders on the River Thames that they protested against the use of Indian built ships to carry trade from England. Consequently, active measures were adopted to cripple the Indian shipbuilding industries. Nevertheless, many Indian ships were inducted into the Royal Navy, such as HMS Hindostan in 1795, the frigate Cornwallis in 1800, HMS Camel in 1801, and HMS Ceylon in 1808. HMS Asia carried the flag of Admiral Codrington at the battle of Navarino in 1827, the last major sea battle to be fought entirely under sail.\nTwo Indian built ships witnessed history in the making. The Treaty of Nanking, ceding Hong Kong to the British, was signed onboard HMS Cornwallis in 1842. The \u201cStar Spangled Banner\u201d national anthem of the USA was composed by Francis Scott Key onboard HMS Minden when the ship was on a visit to Baltimore. Numerous other ships were also constructed, the most famous being HMS Trincomalee, which was launched on 19 October, 1817, carrying 86 guns and displacing 1065 tons. This ship was latter renamed Foudroyant.\nThe period of 4000 years between Lothal and Bombay Dock, therefore, offers tangible evidence of seafaring skills the nation possessed in the days of sail. In the early seventeenth century, when British naval ships came to India, they discovered the existence of considerable shipbuilding and repair skills, as well as seafaring people. An ideal combination was thus available for supporting a fighting force in India. 12\nHOW THE BRITISH KILLED THE MARINE INDUSTRY OF INDIA\nWhen the westerners made contact with India, they were amazed to see their ships. Until the 17th century, European ships were a maximum of 600 tonnes. But in India, they saw such big ships as the Gogha, which was more than 1500 tonnes. The European companies started using these ships and opened many new factories to make Indian artisans manufacture ships. In 1811, Lt. Walker writes, \u201cThe ships in the British fleet had to be repaired every 12th year. But the Indian ships made of teak would function for more than 50 years without any repair.\u201d The East India Company had a ship called Dariya Daulat which worked for 87 years without any repairs. Durable woods like rosewood, sal and teak were used for this purpose.\nThe French traveler Waltzer Salvins writes in his book Le Hindu, in 1811, \u201cHindus were in the forefront of ship-building and even today they can teach a lesson or two to the Europeans. The British, who were very apt at learning the arts, learnt a lot of things about ship building from the Hindus. There is a very good blend of beauty and utility in Indian ships and they are examples of Indian handicrafts and their patience.\u201d Between 1736 and 1863, 300 ships were built at factories in Mumbai. Many of them were included in the Royal Fleet. Of these, the ship called Asia was 2289 tonnes and had 84 cannons. Ship building factories were set up in Hoogly, Sihat, Chittagong, Dacca, etc. In the period between 1781 to 1821, in Hoogly alone 272 ships were manufactured which together weighed 122,693 tonnes.\nIn this connection, Suresh Soni, in his book India\u2018s Glorious Scientific Tradition, explains how India was deprived of its marine industry, but also from any notation in its ancient history of its ship-building ability. He writes:\n\u201cThe shipping magnates of Britain could not tolerate the Indian art of ship manufacturing and they started compelling the East India Company not to use Indian ships. Investigations were frequently carried out in this regard. In 1811, Col. Walker gave statistics to prove that it was much cheaper to make Indian ships and that they were very sturdy. If only Indian ships were included in the British fleet, it would lead to great savings. This pinched the British shipbuilders and the traders. Dr. Taylor writes, \u2018When the Indian ships laden with Indian goods reached the port of London, it created such a panic amongst the British traders as would not have been created, had they seen the enemy fleet of ships on the River Thames, ready for attack.\u2019\n\u201cThe workers at the London Port were among the first to make hue and cry and said that \u2018all our work will be ruined and families will starve to death.\u2019 The Board of Directors of East India Company wrote that \u2018all the fear and respect that the Indian seamen had towards European behavior was lost when they saw our social life once they came here. When they return to their country, they will propagate bad things about us amongst the Asians and we will lose our superiority and the effect will be harmful.\u2019 At this, the British Parliament set up a committee under the chairmanship of Sir Robert Peel.\n\u201cDespite disagreement amongst the members of the committee on the basis of this report, a law was passed in 1814 according to which the Indians lost the right to become British sailors and it became compulsory to employ at least three-fourth British sailors on British ships. No ship, which did not have a British master was allowed to enter London Port and a rule was made that only ships made by the British in England could bring goods to England. For many reasons, there was laxity in enforcing these rules, but from 1863 they were observed strictly. Such rules which would end the ancient art of ship-building, were formulated in India also. Tax on goods brought in Indian ships was raised and efforts were made to isolate them from trade. Sir William Digby has rightly written, \u2018This way, the Queen of the western world killed the Queen of the eastern oceans.\u2019 In short, this is the story about the destruction of the Indian art of ship-building.\u201d 13\nOf course, let us not forget that not only was commerce between ancient India and other countries made through maritime capabilities, but also through land routes that extended to China, Turkistan, Persia, Babylon, and also to Egypt, Greece, and Rome, which continued to prosper.\nThese days, India is still very much in the ship building business, mostly in small and medium size ships. As of 2009 there were 27 major shipyards, primarily in Mumbai, Goa, Vishakhapatnam, and Cochin.\nIn conclusion, the fact is that the ancient Vedic civilization had a strong connection with the sea, and maritime abilities. Even in their language of Vedic Sanskrit, words such as samudra, salil, sagar, and sindhu indicated the sea or large rivers. The word sindhuka also meant sailor, which became the name Sindbad for the sailor in Arabian Nights. Also, the English word navigation actually originates from the Sanskrit word Navagati.\nFurther evidence has been shown, such as that presented at a 1994 conference on seafaring in Delhi where papers had been presented that shows how Indian cotton was exported to South and Central America back in 2500 BCE. Another report suggested Indian cotton reached Mexico as far back as 4000 BCE, back to the Rig Vedic period. According to Sean McGrail, a marine archeologist at Oxford University, seagoing ships called \u2018clinkers\u2019 that were thought to be of Viking origin, were known in India a good deal earlier. Thus, India\u2019s maritime trade actually flourished many years ago, along with many other of its advancements that are hardly recognized or accounted for today. 14\nThis helps reveal that India\u2019s maritime trade actually flourished more and far earlier than most people realize. Though the talents and capabilities that came out of ancient India\u2019s Vedic civilization have often remained unrecognized or even demeaned when discussed. Nonetheless, the Vedic people were far more advanced in culture and developments then many people seem to care to admit, and it is time to recognize it for what it was.\n1. S. R.

Previously, I\u2019ve written about several applications for NAC:\nAs a preventive measure against the common cold and flu infections\n(see Preventive Measures for Swine Flu)\nHelping prevent liver damage from Tylenol\n(see Health Risks from Tylenol, Acetaminophen, and Paracetamol)\nDetoxifying the body of the mercury from dental fillings, predatory fish, and high fructose corn syrup (see High Fructose Corn Syrup is Dangerous for Many Reasons)\nAid for mental health conditions such as OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) and trichotillomania which is a surprisingly common compulsive behavior involving hair-pulling (see N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) Reduces Hair Pulling Compulsion and May Also Be Useful for OCD)\nFurthermore, there is solid evidence that NAC helps boost the body\u2019s levels of glutathione, one of the main antioxidants produced by the body. In particular, glutathione is critical to liver health. Many people suffer from elevated homocysteine levels, an amino acid that is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Several studies indicate that NAC can significantly lower homocysteine levels. Finally, if you sometimes drink alcohol and get a hangover, you\u2019ll be interested to know that NAC plus vitamin B1 (thiamine) may help the body reduce the severity of hangovers. There are many other lesser known uses for NAC. I\u2019ll discuss more of these at the end of the article.\nAvailable Forms of NAC\nNAC is often sold in capsule form containing 600 mg per capsule, but the bulk powder form of the supplement can be much less expensive. NAC is also the primary ingredient in some pharmaceutical products including a product called Mucomyst that is used to treat mucus build-up by inhalation of a sterile liquid solution of NAC.\nThis article reviews the 1Fast400 N-Acetyl-Cysteine, NAC sold in bulk powder form. It is priced less than 1/2 the price of the 600 mg capsules from inexpensive reputable makers such as Puritan\u2019s Pride and NOW Foods. Thus the bulk powder form of NAC is a good choice for people who use large quantities of it. Such people might include those with families with several people who use it for general health, immune system boosting, detoxification from mercury and heavy metals, and especially people who use it for mental health care applications similar to clinical testing being done with dosages of 2000 mg per day or more.\nHealth & Nutrition, OCD, Psychology, Reviews\n1FAST400, acetaminophen, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, Advanced glycation endproducts, AIDS, alcohol, Ascorbyl Palmitate, blood clots, blood type diet, cardiovascular disease, dental fillings, FDA, Food and Drug Administration, glutathione, hangover, HIV, homocysteine, Human Immunodeficiency Virus, lipoprotein(a), liver, Lp(a), mercury, molybdenum, Mucomyst, mucus, N-acetylcysteine, NAC, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, OCD, P5P, paracetamol, Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate, pyridoxamine, pyridoxine, pyridoxine hydrochloride, selenium, thrombosis, Trichotillomania, Tylenol",

We are general ministry, marketplace ministry and deliverance ministry.\n\"And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do\" (Genesis 11:6). We simply teach the love of Jesus Christ. Our focus is on winning souls for the Kingdom of God, as well as restoring God's people. Our general ministry topics include, but are not limited to: general wholeness, forgiveness, relationships, deliverance and the like. We are passionate about seeing the body of Christ walk as one.\n\"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly\" (John 10:10). We believe that it is the will of God that God's people are not burdened by debt, but are instead, the lenders and not the borrowers. For this reason, we are passionate about teaching believers how to start and run their own businesses. Since our launching, we have coached countless people in the marketplace arena and helped hundreds of authors to write their books.\n\"But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs\" (Matthew 15:26). The \"children's bread,\" as we all know, is a metaphor for deliverance. We believe that every believer should be proficient in casting out demons. We are not only a deliverance ministry, we connect believers with deliverance ministries in their areas, and through our Pilot (mentorship) program, we teach believers how to conduct deliverance on themselves as well as others.\nOur vision is to see the body of Christ united. Nevertheless, the only way this will happen is if the love of God is shared above religion!\nQuestions? Comments? Please use the form below to contact us.",

        "raw_content": "At the university, in the first year of philosophy, the teacher will pose a question that has been asked millions and millions of times and yet there is not a clear answer to such an old question: Who are you? The fool, the unwise, the unlearned will be quick to answer and their answer will satisfy them, but is it the right answer?\nFor Jesus to have asked the disciples: \u201cWho do people say that I am\u201d, he must have pondered and meditated on the same question: \u201cwho am I\u2019\u2019.\nThink for a moment, stop what you are doing; ponder: Who are you?\nStop, take it seriously, and take a minute.\nYou may say: I am a teacher, I am white, I speak English, I am human, I am skinny, I am rich or middle class, I am this and I am that, etc.\nBut, Jesus was looking for something else; his question had to do with the Soul; with its mission. He was not interested in the gossip of town. What other people thought of him was really irrelevant. He lived his life free of public opinion and political correctness, just like Pope Francis who is aware of the risk he takes when he speaks openly about justice and right Christian living. Jesus was looking for those who spend time thinking of their actions, their sins, their lives in relation to God; he was looking for an answer that came directly from that God-given essence.\nSo, what did you come up with? Who are you? Are you still pondering?\nIf you think back, you will realize that your answer changes often; every decade of your life speaks by itself: when you were a teenager you had one answer and when you turned twenty or thirty or sixty you had another. If your answer changed over the years, then it is the wrong answer. An answer that changes with time deals with human development and character. In other words, it deals with things you were given at birth, like religion, skin color and education. It also deals with things you have acquired, like a career, a spouse and children. It might deal with things that happened to you, like a robbery, a gift or a sickness. All those answers deal with your relation with the world you live, move and have your being.\nThe question of who you are is deeper than that; it requires divine wisdom; it requires pondering, it necessitates an experience with God (a personal one). Who you are, from a soul perspective, has nothing to do with your language, your religion or your culture; it has to do with the purpose or mission you brought into the world by your very \u201cbeing\u201d. That\u2019s the beauty of Peter\u2019s answer: \u201cYou are the Messiah\u201d. It means that he pondered for a long time and was touched by the Spirit. It means a religious, mystical, experience of God, where everything else matters very little. At that very moment, Peter, was transformed, he was connected with his Soul; he understood his mission and his purpose, but not for long.\nAlthough, it is not part of today\u2019s gospel, if you keep on reading on Matthew 16:23, after Peter recognized Jesus as the messiah, he then tried to convince him not to do his mission. Peter went from being inspired to being human and mundane. This passage is important, because it shows how we can be inspired one moment and lose it immediately afterwards. This is not a judgement against Peter; it is an observation about our human nature. One day you can have a clear picture of your mission, while the next day you have forgotten it.\nMost of us are Catholics, because we were taught by our parents. Do you think you would have converted to Catholicism if you had been born in Iraq as a Muslim or in Haiti as a Voodoo priest? This is a tricky question, so please don\u2019t answer it lightly. Over the past 29 years as a priest and 40 plus years as a Catholic, I have seen few people choosing their faith out of their own personal growth; the majority did not choose, they followed something they were given, but did not understand. St. Teresa of Avila fought with nuns and priests who lived sinful lives within the walls of monasteries and churches.\nPope Francis believes that many Catholics see the church as a social club. His criticism seeks to inspire people to that ancient question \u201cwho am I\u201d and \u201cwhat does God want from me\u201d?\nI believe that the majority of people, whether Catholics or Protestants, do not know how to ponder; they are unaware of what God wants for them; their answers are ready-made found in the mouth of unwise and uninspired priests, parents and society.\nAs a preacher, I know how easy it is to preach without inspiration; one can condemn this or that church; or condemn this or that group. Peter began to preach against Jesus\u2019 sacrifice. HE thought, he knew better, but God\u2019s ways are not ours and very soon, Peter, found himself making the same sacrifice and died on a cross.\nPeter\u2019s death came out of his inspiration, not from his mundane way of thinking.\nWho are you? Why are you here? Why do you go to church? These are big questions that require brutal honesty and a commitment to God\u2019s wisdom. I like to answer them with other questions: How did I do yesterday if Jesus had been on my side and had coached me on what to do? The \u201cwho am I\u201d requires an action and an impact in the world (it\u2019s the doing in Christ).\nUltimately, the answer is: I am one with God and there are brief moments in my life in which I am inspired and have seen that unity manifest in me. So, I am constantly pondering, hoping to bring that inspiration in and experience unity with Him one more time.\nI pray for those who are searching for a personal experience of God, who take seriously every breath they take and use it in their path of inspiration.",

In order to do so, we will take into account some of the categories proposed by Klibansky, Panofsky and Saxl (1992) in their analysis of the copperplate engraving Melancolia I (1514) of the German Renaissance artist Albrecht D\u00fcrer and add some relevant ones.\nHeLix - Heidelberger Beitr\u00e4ge zur romanischen Literaturwissenschaft\nLiteraturwissenschaft, Pan's Labyrinth; Guillermo del Toro; Melancholy; Saturn; Erwin Panofsky; Symbolism; Francisco de Goya; Spanish Civil War; Cinem",

        "raw_content": "Armed Conflict, Small Arms Proliferation and Women's Responses to Armed Violence in India's Northeast\nMentschel, Binalakhsmi Nepram\nNortheast India, comprising the seven states of Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura , and 7.6 percent of land area and 3.6 percent of total population of India has been facing the onslaught of ethnicities based armed conflicts since the late 1940s. The region is home to more than 70 major population groups and sub groups, speaking approximately 400 languages and dialects. No other part of India or South Asia has been subjected to such a prolonged violent struggle, which have held development to ransom, as the Northeast India. Violent and vociferous demands by various ethnic groups for independence and for new states in the Northeast have been occurring over the past five decades. The fire of insurgency has for long engulfed this strategic region for the last half a century or more making it one of the South Asia's most disturbed regions. Bound by four countries namely Bhutan, Bangladesh, China and Myanmar, the region has immense geo-political significance. One finds a large variety of conflictual dynamics in the Northeast ranging from insurgency for secession to insurgency for autonomy, from sponsored terrorism to ethnic clashes, to problems of continuous inflow of migrants and the fight over resources. Northeast India is home to a variety of turmoil. Socio-political instability and economic backwardness, isolation and inaccessibility compound the problem further. The cultural chasm between its people and those of the mainland is also so deep that this region is unlikely to be psychologically integrated with India for some time to come. Perhaps the map too, does not help in developing this mental state. While every other part of India is joined integrally to the mainland, the Northeast hangs on a 14 km \"chicken neck\" of land between Nepal and Bangladesh. There are about 272 tribes and more in the region, thereby earning the name of a maniature asia\". Besides the tribes, non-tribes like Assamese (Assam) and Meiteis (Manipur) exists. No other region of India, South Asia or the world must have seen the existence of the numerous ethnic based insurgent outfits as it is the Northeast India, nor in any known part of the world, the proliferation and mushrooming of militant outfits as it is happening in this region thus forming a complex matrix.\nDecemb\nIndia , Northeast , Conflict , Women , Small Arms , Arms , Proliferation",

Evidence from animal and human studies suggests that enhancing the brain peptide oxytocin may facilitate interest in social interaction, reduce the sensitivity to social threat, and reduce stereotypic behaviors. This has implications for the development of novel experimental treatments for core symptoms of autism and related conditions. In response to a hygeine hypothesis and evidence of neuroinflamation in some patients with autism, studies with helminths, a gut parasite with immunomodulatory properties, are being conducted in autism and other autoimmune disorders, and studies to assess the effects of fever and temperature regulation on ASD are underway. Studies to match homogeneous populations of ASD based on copy number variation (CNV) to novel therapeutics targeting the defined molecular pathway will also be described.\nEric Hollander, M.D.\nDr. Hollander is a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Director of the Autism and Obsessive Compulsive Spectrum Program at Montefiore Medical Center and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

        "raw_content": "Browse > Home / Data, Financial, Management, News, Publishing / The Guardian Adheres to Principles\nThe Guardian Adheres to Principles\nIn the 1930s, Britain\u2019s newspaper the Guardian was founded, through a generous family\u2019s endowment, on the ideas of an unfettered press and free access to information. In continued pursuit of these goals, the publication has maintained a paywall-free online presence, despite declining online-advertising revenue. That choice has cost them, we learn from the piece, \u201dGuardian Bet Shows Digital Risks\u201d at USA Today. Writer Michael Wolff explains:\n\u201cIn order to underwrite the costs of this transformation, most of the trust\u2019s income-producing investments have been liquidated in recent years in order to keep cash on hand \u2014 more than a billion dollars.\n\u201cIn effect, the Guardian saw itself as departing the newspaper business and competing with new digital news providers like BuzzFeed and Vox and Vice Media, each raising ever-more capital from investors with which to finance their growth. The Guardian \u2014 unlike most other newspapers that are struggling to make it in the digital world without benefit of access to outside capital \u2014 could use the interest generated by its massive trust to indefinitely deficit-finance its growth. At a mere 4% return, that would mean it could lose more than $40 million a year and be no worse for wear.\n\u201cBut \u2026 the cost of digital growth mounted as digital advertising revenue declined. And with zero interest rates, there has been, practically speaking, no return on cash. Hence, the Guardian\u2019s never-run-out endowment has plunged by more than 12% since the summer and, suddenly looking at a finite life cycle, the Guardian will now have to implement another transition: shrinking rather than expanding.\u201d\nThe Guardian\u2019s troubles point to a larger issue, writes Wolff; no one has been able to figure out a sustainable business model for digital news. For its part, the Guardian still plans to avoid a paywall, but will try to coax assorted fees from its users. We shall see how that works out.\nWritten by Stephen E.

        "raw_content": "It's A Gray Area: Uncle Jim is more than a namesake\nAugust 20, 2011|By James P. Gray\nAs my father told the story, when he asked my mother to marry him, the only condition was that if they had a son they would name him after his younger brother Jim. I guess mom agreed, because that is what happened.\nMy uncle, James L Gray, was a special and unique man. He was a natural gymnast, golfer, skier and windsurfer, and also a natural leader. After graduation from UC Berkeley, and flying fighter airplanes out of Pensacola, Fla., during the Korean War, he returned to his native Southern California, bought a small house on Lido Island and sold heavy construction equipment for Hal Anawalt.\nBut one day he met a restaurateur named John McIntosh, the owner of the Snackshop and Coco's Restaurants, who wanted to open a steak house. Because of Jim's people and entrepreneurial skills, McIntosh asked him if he would be interested in being his partner. McIntosh already was highly knowledgeable in the food part of the business, so it became Jim's responsibility to learn and then oversee the bar and entertainment facets.\nOne evening as these plans were progressing, Jim was having dinner at our home in La Ca\u00f1ada and talking about what they were going to name their new restaurant. We had a great time discussing the possibilities. But eventually they settled upon John McIntosh's middle name, which was Reuben. And so the restaurant became known as Reuben's.\nI went to the grand opening of the original Reuben's, which was on Coast Highway in Newport Beach at the present location of the Sol Restaurant. It became so successful that, with time, they opened more. So I also went to the grand opening of the Reuben's in Santa Ana, which became popular with many people in the area, including attorneys who worked at the courthouse.\nLater they opened a Chinese restaurant next to the original Reuben's, which was called Wu Ben's. Unfortunately, even though the restaurant was successful, Jim said that the labor in providing quality Chinese food was disproportionate to their ability to get a proper return on their invested capital.",

It examines the evolution of \u2018indie\u2019 \u2013 a guitar-based genre of music with its own sound, fashion and culture.\nIndependent record labels provided a platform for some of Britain\u2019s most groundbreaking artists at this time, including the Jesus and Mary Chain and the Smiths, who would burst onto the scene in 1983 staging a mainstream intervention and starting a small revolution.\nIn the midst of shiny 80s sounds and shoulder-padded fashion, indie was anti-image and anti-flamboyance. Through many of the indie bands in this period, everyday life was repackaged in melody and poetic lyrics. It\u2019s not hard to see why a generation of youth, disaffected from the times they were living in, sought refuge in the poetic haze of early indie. The bands were accessible too, and aspiring music journalists could meet their favourite indie stars at the small and intimate gigs where they performed.\nThe programme concludes in the late 80s with the Madchester scene, as alternative music crossed over into the mainstream chart. This breakthrough was inspired by a merging of indie rock and the burgeoning acid house culture, and it was led by a new crop of bands such as the Stone Roses and Happy Mondays.",

It brought together 60 young leaders from nine South Auckland schools to re-story the world they live in, challenge negative media representation and to show what it means to lead.\nProfessor O\u2019Connor describes it as an example of theatre as local resistance. \u201cThat\u2019s the nature of Applied Theatre \u2013 it\u2019s applied beyond entertainment. It has other purposes. That\u2019s what\u2019s been so vital here at this conference.\u201d\nHe adds: \u201cThe reality is that drama along with other arts has essentially died in New Zealand primary schools because of the imposition of national standards and the narrowing of the curriculum. Yet drama as a pedagogy has a strong and progressive history. In universities, in initial teacher education, at the moment arts have little place or status.\n\u201cIf we want a thriving participatory democracy, the arts in schools are vital. When we chuck them away as we have done in this country, it\u2019s a risk to democracy. The arts are a way for us to humanise a world in which politics dehumanises who we are. We can\u2019t afford to lose that. That\u2019s what the conference has been about on one level.\n\u201cApplied theatre is about the pedagogy of hope, and the conference expressed the power and commitment to continue to bring about hope and possibility through theatre.\u201d",

This chart is offered as way for you to help your self investigate if there is a relationship between your symptoms and tooth issues/projects. A dentist Dr Wolfe compiled this chart.\nThis is also from his website: What is Total Body Dentistry\nDefinition: The practice of dentistry that takes into account the effect of dental treatment and materials on the overall health of the individual.\nThe teeth are part of your body, and one cannot be as healthy as they are capable of being with an unhealthy mouth.\nDr. Reinhold Voll, my German professor, routinely stated that 90% of all chronic disease has an orientation in the mouth.\nPossible Disturbance Fields In The Mouth\n1. Bio-Incompatible Dental Materials\nIn 1826, a revolutionary new dental restorative material called 'amalgam' was introduced to the United States. The amalgam filling was developed in England and France and contained silver, tin, copper, zinc and mercury in various percentages...with mercury being the highest percentage at over 50%. The amalgam fillings were not openly embraced by organized dentistry in America, and in 1840, members of the American Society of Dental Surgeons were required to sign pledges not to use mercury fillings. In fact, several New York city dentists were suspended from this organization in 1848 for malpractice for using silver / mercury fillings. In 1859, a new organization was formed as a result of the internal strife over the use of mercury in dentistry - the American Dental Association, and their filling material of choice, as it still is today, is the mercury (approx.50%), silver (approx.30%) amalgam filling. In spite of numerous published scientific studies over the years demonstrating the ill effects of mercury fillings in the mouth, plus knowing that the FDA has never approved the amalgam mixture as a safe dental device, mercury / silver / amalgam fillings are still the primary dental restoration used by dentists in the U.S. (approx.100 million mercury fillings are placed yearly ).\nSo ignoring science, and just using common sense, here are some basic concerns:\nMercury before it is placed into the mouth is a hazardous toxin in the environment.\nThe scrap amalgam which is removed from the mouth cannot be thrown away in the trash, or the dentist is subject to a $10,000 fine by the Environmental Protection Agency ! Instead, the scrap is considered a toxic waste and must be removed by a hazardous waste company.\nTherefore,why are we placing this substance in the patient's mouth? Is the safest place to store mercury in the patient's mouth?\nHowever, there are many other issues in dentistry regarding the bio-compatibility of the dental materials placed in the mouth. The main issue being that there is no bio-compatibility testing required to bring a dental material to the marketplace. Besides, the mercury filling issue, there are also issues regarding: the constituents of the resins in composites (white, tooth colored fillings); the use of non precious / nickel metal crowns and root canal posts; stainless steel ( nickel ) appliances; denture resin materials; and the composition of implants, etc. The immune system has to \"deal with\" any foreign / non-self substance placed in the body. The quest then is to pick substances which are the least immune challenging, and also, to minimize the number of immune challenges (ex...when replaced, having all of your filling materials, bonding agents, crown materials, and cements, etc., be of the same substance / brand. ). It would be ideal if you and your dentist would have your own personal \"dental menu\" of dental materials to use, when dentistry is required.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Voting / Two-Party-Preferred Votes / A Simple Explanation of the Two-Party-Preferred Vote\nA Simple Explanation of the Two-Party-Preferred Vote\nAustralia\u2019s system of preferential voting gives rise to the concept of the two-party-preferred vote.\nThe two-party-preferred vote is the total number of votes received by the Australian Labor Party (ALP) versus the Coalition (Liberal & National Parties) after all preferences have been distributed.\nThese totals are a combination of the primary votes (also known as \u201cfirst preference\u201d votes) and the preferences distributed from other candidates.\nFor example, suppose there are 3 candidates standing for election to a seat in the House of Representatives. They receive the following first preference votes:\nTaking these figures, we say that Smith and Jones each received 45% of the primary vote.\nAn absolute majority (50% + 1) of votes is required to win under preferential voting. No candidate has secured that number, so the candidate with the least votes, Brown, is eliminated and the second preferences of Brown\u2019s 10 primary votes are allocated between Smith and Jones.\nSuppose 6 of those votes went to Smith and 4 went to Jones. The new tally would be:\nSmith would now be declared the winner with 51% of the two-party-preferred vote. The 51 votes comprise 45 primary votes and 6 preference votes.\nPreference Allocation in Denison 2010 \u2013 follow this link for an illustrated example of preferential voting in action in the 2010 election in the House of Representatives electorate of Denison.\nHistorically, the two-party-preferred statistics are always calculated between the ALP and the Coalition because the overwhelming number of seats in the House of Representatives are won by those two groups. Sometimes the calculation may be between the ALP vs Greens, ALP vs Independent, Coalition vs Independent, Liberal vs National, etc.\nThe two-party-preferred figures are the only valid way to compare electorates and the swing required for them to be won or lost. For this reason, the Australian Electoral Commission calculates the two-party-preferred result in all electorates, even those where a candidate secured an absolute majority of the primary vote.\nIn the above example, Smith holds the seat with a margin of 1%.\nThe two-party-preferred statistics are also used to show the overall level of support for each of the main political groups.\nTwo-party-preferred statistics for all federal elections since 1949\nThe statistics show that it is possible for a party to win government without winning a majority of the two-party-preferred vote. This occurred in 1998, 1990, 1969, 1961 and 1954. The reason for this is that voter support is unevenly distributed amongst the House of Representatives electorates. The major parties can build up large majorities in individual seats which increases their overall vote but doesn\u2019t win them extra seats.\nChristine Milne Craig Thomson interest rates John McCain Monica Lewinsky Peter Beattie Chris Bowen Tanya Plibersek NPC leadership Peter Costello Budget Glenn Stevens AEC Jenny Macklin Simon Crean Stephen Conroy GST Anthony Albanese Tony Abbott Peter Slipper Clive Palmer Paul Keating Penny Wong Mark Latham Liberal Party John Howard first speech Gough Whitlam Iraq Tony Blair Steve Bracks Barack Obama terrorism Mathias Cormann Bob Brown Bill Shorten Andrew Peacock financial crisis Robert Menzies Pauline Hanson Bob Hawke George Brandis resignation Julie Bishop Malcolm Turnbull National Press Club Senate Eric Abetz Peter Hollingworth Wayne Swan Malcolm Fraser Adam Bandt Kevin Rudd 2013 Federal Election A.L.P.

FSV is known for its expertise managing a broad range of prepaid programs for companies, government agencies, financial institutions, and incentive/marketing firms. Under the terms of the transaction, Ballast Point Ventures, North Hill Ventures, Berkley Capital, and the other non-management investors sold their ownership stakes in the Company to U.S. Bank. The acquisition combines U.S. Bank\u2019s payments strength and prepaid expertise with FSV\u2019s platform which will position the combined entity as one of the few financial institutions in the industry capable of providing efficient end-to-end prepaid programs and services for its clients.\nPaul Johan, Partner with BPV, had praise for the management team:\nThe sale of our interest in FSV marks the end of a very successful three and a half year investment for BPV. We are very appreciative of the outstanding job that Rick Savard and his team did in taking FSV from a solid growth company to a very profitable firm with a high profile in the prepaid sector. They\u2019ve done a fantastic job working with clients while leading a dramatic improvement to the service platform and technology capabilities of the company.

        "raw_content": "Conversation with Art Critic Lori Waxman\nRead Waxman's reviews from the Columbus show at ROY here.\nArt criticism is in a weird place. Lori Waxman's 60 WRD/MIN performance this past March at the ROY G BIV gallery made that clear by blurring the lines between art and criticism and mixing a bit of the past with the present.\nWaxman is a professional critic and art historian who is an instructor at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a freelance contributor to the Chicago Tribune, Bad At Sports and Artforum. With 60 WRD/MIN, a traveling performance underwritten by the Warhol Foundation, she visits isolated art locales like Austin, Texas; Knoxville, Tennessee; and our own Columbus, Ohio to write short reviews on an appointment basis for that untouchable caste in the art world -provincial artists.\nSo what's weird about that? Well, to start with, the reviews Waxman wrote in Columbus were published by a magazine that no longer has a dedicated art critic or arts editor on staff.* This is part of a nationwide trend among print publications to cut and/or water down arts coverage. Since art criticism has been amputated from our current media experience, part of the allure of being reviewed now lives in its near impossibility. Actually getting to have a serious review written about your work feels almost like a anachronistic novelty, like using a wind-up clock or going to a haberdashery to pick out a spic-and-span trilby. While 60 WRD/MIN clearly serves to invigorate local art scenes it also underscores that out-of-time je ne sais quoi of seeing actual art criticism in contemporary American media. The environment which makes 60 WRD/MIN necessary and intriguing also makes it a bit depressing, like \"No, Lori, please don't leave - we need you here!\"\nBut it's also weird for the contradictory impulses that have always been constitutive of art criticism, as Waxman points out on the 60 WRD/MIN site:\n\"The short review is at once a challenge, an insult, a record, and a piece of advertising. Its purpose is debatable and arguably quite different for the various parties involved: the writer gets a tear sheet, a couple of bucks, and some editorial gratification; the reader, in the best case scenario, gets a succinct, opinionated description of a body of work they probably did not see in person; and the artist gets published recognition and an entry for their bibliography.\"\nIn our absolutely mammoth conversation after \"The Jump\" I ask Waxman about all of that and more - touching on long form versus short form writing, general readership versus professional readership, quality of artwork in regional areas versus metropolitan areas, her PhD dissertation for NYU on radical walking, the theatricality of 60 WRD/MIN, its critical reception and the particularly odd behavior exhibited by a few of our more uncouth Columbusites.\n*Arts Editor Melissa Starker left the Alive in December. Recent Artscape articles covering going-ons at the Wexner Center were written by freelancer Tracy Zollinger Turner, who is not listed as being a member of the Alive's staff on their site. And, perhaps tellingly, no one is listed as being the new Arts Editor.\nLori Waxman in Conversation - 3/18/10\nLori Waxman.\nJames Payne: How did 60 WRD/MIN come to fruition?\nLori Waxman: It has two geneses as an idea. One of them is personal, one of them is work related. I got the idea around 2005 when I was dating an artist who I am now married to and most of my friends were emerging artists. I was working as a freelance critic at that point but they were just all very stressed about this critic/artist situation. Like how do you get a review? Do you need reviews to get a show? Who are these people who review us and do they even care about us? Even now these are still concerns that they have. That\u2019s one side of it. So I was a critic but I was intimately aware of how it affects artists. At this point, work-wise, I was in publishing at Distributor Art Publishers, D.A.P.. I was a managing editor and I did a number of jobs there. One of the things I did was that I wrote all the catalogue copy. I don\u2019t know if you\u2019ve ever seen the D.A.P. catalogue \u2013 there is a lot of copy in there describing all these books. I wrote every single word of it and I had to do this twice a year and really fast, on serious deadlines and the books didn\u2019t even exist. So I actually developed a skill for writing very quickly - fairly intelligent, descriptive but also demonstrative texts about art, I mean art publications, but art. But, you know, not being too snarky. I got a lot of tics out \u2013 like don\u2019t be snarky. But don\u2019t be boring. But don\u2019t write the same thing about everything. Don\u2019t treat things as derivative, take them seriously, try and give as much information as possible, that sort of thing.\nJP: So D.A.P. formalized your tone for 60 WRD/MIN?\nLW: Yeah, although because it was D.A.P. and because I was both the managing editor and the technical writer, I had a lot of freedom. It\u2019s not Abrams, it\u2019s D.A.P. It\u2019s art, it\u2019s not something more serious, or not \u201cserious\u201d but you know what I mean. So it was a really interesting training ground for doing that kind of writing. And then when I ended up writing for Artforum.com maybe a year or two later, I realized it actually had its application for actual criticism. The limit on the pieces for Artforum.com is 200 words and they are really not well paid, they are vaguely prestigious but they are not well paid. So I took that skill and brought it into regular criticism and it was useful. I wrote those reviews fast and they were good, but I wrote them really fast so I could write more. They still didn\u2019t pay decently but they paid better than maybe they would for someone else [who was slower]. So you sort of put the 2 and 2 together that I just explained and you maybe end up with something, some of the questions that led to the performance I put together.\nJP: How would someone in the position your friends were in get you in the guise of your job at the Chicago Tribune or Artforum to do the same thing? That seems like the problem that inspired 60 WRD/MIN, of how do we get those people attached to those institutions to write about this. You\u2019re willing to write about it, but through this other project and not necessarily as part of the institutional framework.\nLW: Oh yeah, I\u2019m not solving it. How does someone get me to come review them:\nA: They have to have a show whereas for this project someone doesn\u2019t have to have a show, they just have to be making work that they are willing to put out there. B: I have to know about it. I also have to not have a newborn because I\u2019m not really seeing much of anything right now but I will again starting in a couple months. You can\u2019t get me to review work. I have to be interested in it. All that someone can do is make sure I know about it and not annoy me, and there is a fine balance.\nJP: And do you pick assignments, or is that something that your editors dictate?\nLW: No, no, I strictly control what I write about. I mean, they can refuse a pitch if they think it is completely irrelevant to their readership - both Artforum and the Tribune - but I don\u2019t take assignments, I don\u2019t work on assignments. I have in the past and I don\u2019t like working that way.\nJP: How do artists make you aware of what they are doing - do they have publicists? Do they send you emails?\nLW: People send me emails, galleries send me emails, but I also keep up with things.\nIf it were a space I don\u2019t visit then someone would have to let me know about it. But you know, it\u2019s Chicago: it\u2019s not New York. It\u2019s not that hard to keep abreast of most of what is going on. I can\u2019t see everything and I\u2019m not interested in everything so I\u2019m sure there is tons of stuff I would be interested in enough to write about but I don\u2019t get to see it - I\u2019m human. And I\u2019m certainly not going to see art everyday. I\u2019m going once a week, maybe. Right now I\u2019m not going at all. But normally I\u2019m going once a week. With the Tribune I\u2019m not going to write about really obscure shows in really obscure places because it\u2019s not really worth it for the readership unless I think something is so incredible that it goes outside of specialized realms.\nJP: As far as the readership for the Tribune - who are you writing for? Is there a \u201cmuseum going public\u201d that you are writing for?\nLW: That is a hell of a good question. I should actually ask my editor. I was actually really surprised when they hit me up to take that job after they let Alan Artner go in the spring. I would have been much less surprised if they just stopped covering art. They didn\u2019t and I actually have been meaning to ask them why. I mean, it\u2019s great, don\u2019t get me wrong, obviously, and I don\u2019t just mean that because I need the job - it\u2019s amazing. Wow. That they wanted to keep covering art and they decided to ask me to do it, I think that\u2019s pretty cool. Who am I writing for? I don\u2019t know what they would say, me personally, I am writing for what I think is a general newspaper reader. It may or may not be the actual average reader of the Tribune but I\u2019m trying to write for someone who is just your average, intelligent person who cares about culture and isn\u2019t in any way specialized in the arts. But someone who will see a good film, someone who will read a good book, someone who will go see a good art show but because they are not a part of any of those fields needs someone from the field to help them learn about it.\nJP: One of the ironies with your recent show in Columbus was that the paper that published your reviews used to be a good alternative weekly but was bought out by the only newspaper in town and recently their main art critic left the paper. It was on her own accord, sort of leaving a sinking ship, and now they don\u2019t really have a designated art critic.\nLW: So John Ross, the guy who sort of put together the piece?\nJP: I believe he is a culture person. They have two culture writers who are culture people (Editor's Note: At this moment, I was thinking Ross and Chris Deville). But from what I understand, before they had writers (Editor's Note: I was thinking Melissa Starker, J. Caleb Mozzocco, Stephen Slaybaugh) who were more specialized in specific areas like film, music and art.\nLW: That is how The Tribune is treating art apart from me. There is a staff writer, Lauren Viera, who started covering art when Alan Artner left, and she\u2019s actually a musician and would cover music but they won\u2019t let her because she is a local musician and they think it is a conflict of interest. So she covers art. She wrote art reviews in college, I mean that is her basic experience in art. She puts a lot of effort into it but she is by no means specialized in art and would tell you as much. I\u2019m \u201cThe Specialist.\u201d So she does much more of the culture coverage, the entertainment coverage as it applies to art, than I do. She writes reviews too but I think I do the serious, focused reviews and I don\u2019t do any of the more culture writing.\nJP: How does working at a traditional print outlet like the Tribune differ from the online audiences at Bad At Sports or Artforum.com?\nLW: Well the Artforum.com audience and the Bad At Sports audiences are obviously super specialized in art, as is the Artforum magazine readership. I don\u2019t write for Artforum.com now, I just write for the magazine sometimes. Those are super specialized, different specializations, not the same audience, obviously they overlap, one is a lot more highbrow than the other or whatever you want to call it \u2013 the elite art versus the sub-elite art or something. But those are very specialized. So you don\u2019t have to watch your use of jargon, you don\u2019t have to watch your use of reference whereas I would in the Tribune.\nJP: Are the reviews you are writing for 60 WRD/MIN more in the vein of the specialized writing for Artforum or the general audience writing of the Tribune pieces?\nLW: Somewhere in between. They are more specialized than the newspaper \u2013 they sort of have to be because I am going so quickly. And I don\u2019t have the space. The one good thing about jargon and references is the short hand but I am aware that the people who are coming in. I\u2019m really writing for the artist to a certain extent. But as you saw the artists are all over the place, they didn\u2019t all go to art school. So if I\u2019m just writing for an art school audience then the person who made the work I am writing about may not get it and that seems really lame. And since I\u2019m trying to take each piece on its own terms I shouldn\u2019t really end up with jargony writing about something from an artist who never went to art school because they are probably not making work about that, right?\nJP: So does 60 WRD/MIN change how you would write about the work? You talk about taking them on their own terms, is that something you would normally do? Are you pulling your punches in a way? Would you do that normally?\nLW: I try to. Well there are a couple of answers to that. One is that I wouldn\u2019t write about most of this work professionally. Why? A lot of it\u2019s not interesting to me, personally. And most of it wouldn\u2019t end up in a gallery anyway so I\u2019d never see it. Let\u2019s say if it was in a gallery and I would happen to see it I\u2019d probably not be particularly interested in writing about it. Doesn\u2019t mean I don\u2019t enjoy thinking about it or I\u2019m not capable of thinking about it but I don\u2019t have much to say. I don\u2019t have enough to say. There is too much too look at and write about. Taking everything on its own terms\u2026 most of the stuff I write about exists on the same terms \u2013 my terms. Our terms, art world terms. So that\u2019s its own category. And those are the terms I take on the stuff that is clearly coming out of MFA and BFA programs. Because those are its terms and I know them really well. I\u2019m harsher with the stuff where I know the terms clearly; I\u2019m also more full of praise potentially. And then with other stuff, like a lot of outsider stuff \u2013 who the hell knows what the terms are? Who knows? So you just try and figure out something to make of it and it\u2019s fun, it\u2019s really exciting half the time. One of my favorite pieces that I wrote about in Columbus was this total outsider stuff by this older gentleman, this older, retired gentleman who was coming up with a way to visualize what we normally use numbers to represent and he gave me a whole performative lecture about it. That was a trip. That was great. I was so happy he participated. And he sent me a lovely thank you note too. He was the only person who sent me a thank you note and it was delightful. I took him totally seriously and he was totally serious and I completely took what he was doing seriously but I certainly didn\u2019t evaluate it the way, let\u2019s say the way I evaluated your work. It\u2019s on a completely different set of references; it\u2019s trying to do something completely different.\n\u201cThe critic is here but she\u2019s busy, do you really need to speak to her? Ok. She\u2019s got a lot of patients to see.\u201d\nJP: While you are providing this easily accessible service for emerging artists does that same ease of accessibility make the reviews you write mean less to them? If everyone has a review from Lori Waxman does it mean as much as a review those artists would get from someone else?\nLW: That\u2019s a really good question and it is actually one of my operating questions, it\u2019s a performance so I don\u2019t have to answer all the questions I pose but that\u2019s one of the questions I ask so I would turn around and ask you, since you participated as an artist, what do you think, what\u2019s it worth?\nJP: Well it\u2019s good for me, as general feedback from anyone, but I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s something that if I was serious about an art career I would use by saying, \u201cThis person said this about me.\u201d (Editor Note: I have since done exactly that.) Knowing that everyone would be aware of your project. It seems that anyone looking at that would be like \u201cOh, this was someone who signed up for 60 WRD/MIN and Lori had to write this.\u201d But at the same time all of my friends who did participate in Columbus turned around and put it on their blogs right away and probably in their CVs later or whatever.\nLW: As have other people. It probably ends up meeting somewhere in between. I think most emerging artists do exactly that; they immediately put it on their CV as far as I have seen. I\u2019m not Jerry Saltz but I do write for Artforum, I do write for the Chicago Tribune, so it\u2019s going to appear as something more than just a random project.\nJP: Is there a difference in the work of these regional locales like Columbus or Knoxville and the metropolitan cities like Chicago and New York?\nLW: I\u2019ll answer it but I\u2019m going to give a caveat which is that I feel like in Chicago and New York through whatever fault of my own I mostly got a real artist crowd, like a post-school crowd and I got a much, much broader participation in these secondary or tertiary towns and cities. Is that because they have broader constituencies? I kind of doubt it. I think it has more to do with the fact that because they are smaller places the art community is smaller and therefore\u2026 I don\u2019t know, do you understand the kind of math I\u2019m talking about? I haven\u2019t got my brain on to sort of describe it but you know what I mean. So I think it has more to do with that. But that\u2019s just my hypothesis because obviously that\u2019s not the evidence I got. The evidence I got is that I got more of an insidery art in New York and Chicago and then I got everything from across the way in these other places. Which is way more interesting for me, way more interesting for me. And it kind of makes the project worthwhile and curious. I haven\u2019t been to enough regions yet to note real differences in between them. I don\u2019t know if any will arise, I imagine some will but I don\u2019t know. Thus far it has to do with diversity.\nJP: And the quality of the work is?\nLW: It\u2019s just all over the place. Completely. It\u2019s also really hard to judge quality because the work has so many different intentions so I can\u2019t measure a lot of things against other things; I sort of have to measure them against themselves. Like quality of Sunday painting from one place versus another. Plus it\u2019s very random who I am getting. If I had 80 submissions for appointments, I took the first forty. Maybe the next forty were better so it\u2019s not necessarily representative of the place. In all honesty there actually was more stuff in Austin and Knoxville that turned me on, that I got super excited about, than in Columbus but that really could be coincidental, I don\u2019t know.\nWaxman in Knoxville with receptionist (and artist) Veronica Siehl in the foreground.\nJP: The move of the receptionist being present seems important to the concept. How did that came into play, how do you feel about it?\nLW: I don\u2019t remember when it became clear that it was necessary though I have never done it without one. I don\u2019t remember but really it\u2019s twofold. One: it would be impossible to manage without it, it\u2019s very practical. Two: there is a real theatricality to this which is important and which I enjoy because we don\u2019t get to be theatrical very often, us non-artists. But it helps with the theatricality of the office environment, the doctor\u2019s office, the waiting area, the checking things in, like \u201cThe critic is here but she\u2019s busy - do you really need to speak to her? Ok. She\u2019s got a lot of patients to see.\u201d kind of thing. But it is really practical. You saw how tight the schedule and how tight a ship I run and it really wouldn\u2019t be possible otherwise.\nJP: Is that removal important though \u2013 are you trying to mimic the removal an art critic might normally have from artists?\nLW: No. In that sense it\u2019s really just a practical removal of \u201cI have a lot of shit to write\u201d and if I had to also check the artists in I couldn\u2019t get it done and it\u2019s more important that I get the writing done than anything else because at the end of the day it\u2019s how many reviews I can turn out that are decent, that are good enough and I can\u2019t do it without a little bit of remove. It\u2019s not because I want the remove and it\u2019s not meant to be the regular remove of the critic/artist, it\u2019s just meant to be about me getting writing done.\nJP: What does bingeing on short form writing during 60 WRD/MIN do for your long form writing?\nLW: It probably doesn\u2019t do anything for my long form. I mean my longest form right now is that I\u2019m submitting my doctoral dissertation on Friday. What it does for it is that it gives me a break from this long, long \u2013 it\u2019s a relief. So it\u2019s more that kind of a help than a direct one. It\u2019s indirect.\nJP: And your doctoral dissertation is on critical walking, radical walking?\nLW: Radical walking. Yeah. It\u2019s called A Few Steps in a Revolution of Everyday Life and it\u2019s about The Situationist International, The Surrealists, and Fluxus and a number of contemporary artists too, interwoven as comparative examples. It asks why did artists suddenly take up this most basic human action, walking, and start making art out of it? Or start using it to make art or not necessarily to even make art, but to do what they thought was important whatever you want to call it, whether you call it art or you call it something else. I mean with all three of these groups it is interesting that they primarily have non-object based practices and that they have really revolutionary goals \u2013 why is walking so important for all of them? That\u2019s what it was all about figuring out.\nJP: Do you see criticism as something that\u2019s really isn\u2019t tied to one thing. Like it\u2019s not really tied to writing if you can be politically critical through walking? Is it a mental state or framework that doesn\u2019t need to be in one specific medium? Is there any connection between the idea of radical walking and the act of criticism in writing?\nLW: Probably. That\u2019s an interesting question, I\u2019ve never quite thought about it. I\u2019m a writer so most of the critical thinking I do is completed by the writing process, like it actually takes place while I am writing in part. It\u2019s not like it happens in my head and then I just get it out in writing so it can be expressed, it actually happens through writing in a lot of ways. For other people who don\u2019t write it happens through other media I guess. And then there are those people who really are thinkers and they just struggle with finding some way to get it out of their heads. But I realize that through both short form and long form writing, if I\u2019m not writing I\u2019m not having complete thoughts.\nJP: You said in an interview that you don\u2019t really read much art criticism. I don\u2019t read much art criticism and I don\u2019t think many people do. It makes me feel odd about writing it.\nLW: Well why do you write it then? I have my answers.\nJP: Well with what you said about completing thoughts, or just getting something down. I feel like I\u2019ll have a very general idea about something and once I start writing about it I can fully articulate it in a way I can\u2019t from just thinking about it. But at the same time if I\u2019m not even interested in really reading someone else doing that\u2026\nLW: I know. That\u2019s sort of my answer. Is it selfish? Mostly it\u2019s selfish in that I like to look at and think about art a lot and writing really helps me to do that. And then the other is the less selfish one and newspaper criticism is the most relevant to this, which is, I actually think that going and looking at art is really important and most people are not going to do it. It is a super specialized activity at this point. So if by writing about it in the newspaper I can get more people to go and see it and think about it and have some ease with it then it is worth doing it. When I write for Artforum, I don\u2019t know, it\u2019s good for my career. It\u2019s good for other people\u2019s careers \u2013 it\u2019s a very careerist thing all around. And it\u2019s a specialized dialogue that sometimes I feel strongly enough about to take part in. Mostly I don\u2019t, sometimes I do, sometimes I\u2019m really excited about something and I feel like I have a unique idea about it and I want to put it out there for the people who track these things and sometimes I\u2019m really angry about something and I want to put it out there for the people who care about these things. You hope that it makes some kind of difference, people do read this stuff - the people who make it, who make art and think about art, a lot of them do read \u2013 Artforum let\u2019s say. So it\u2019s one way of throwing an idea into the hat.\nJP: But you view it as more of a professional journal or an industry publication than anything else.\nLW: Yes. It is absolutely that. The only reason why it\u2019s ever taken as being something else is that it\u2019s so fancy and that\u2019s just because it\u2019s art. But otherwise it\u2019s a very specialized, field specific journal.\nJP: And you feel that dialogue isn\u2019t interesting you that much or that you\u2019re outside of it in some way?\nLW: Eh, yeah, I\u2019d rather just go look at work. It\u2019s often also about a lot of work I don\u2019t care about. I find some of it insufferable. I find a lot of it irrelevant, jargony, about work I don\u2019t care about or work that I do care about or not in a way I care about. I\u2019d rather go look at the work. Also, I\u2019d rather read about things I don\u2019t know about. I\u2019d rather read about the world. To be honest, I\u2019d rather read The New Yorker from cover to cover. And I do. That is my favorite magazine and actually it is sort of my goal for journalism. I think The New Yorker is amazing on the whole.\nJP: You received funding for 60 WRD/MIN through the Warhol Foundation.\nLW: Yes, the Art Writers Grant Program. You should totally look it up as a blogger. They have a category that is specifically for blogging \u2013 new media. Paddy Johnson of Art Fag City won it last year. But there is a lot of money to be had. Which is all about encouraging art writing, all kinds of it. They liked my project because it was a new form of art writing and it was about art writing.\nJP: Do you get critics covering 60 WRD/MIN in other cities?\nLW: I had the theater critic cover it in Knoxville. He was amazed. He was amazed that I would make my critical process public. He really reviewed it as critic to critic. He reviewed it as performance and he was really \u201cWhoa, I can\u2019t believe you\u2019re letting people see your computer screen.\u201d Yeah. That really freaked him out that I was exposing my process of writing. Which he couldn\u2019t imagine doing. He said it was giving him angst just sitting there watching it.\nWatch the criticism!\nJP: Yeah, watching that screen was amazing. Because you would look at your writing backtracking and going forward, then back, which contradicts the idea of a piece of writing as being a natural whole. When you get to see someone actually writing you realize it really could be anything, it\u2019s not some magical process.\nLW: This is my brain at work.\nJP: It was also like a machine, it felt like a robot since you are watching the screen. Like it is an output.\nLW: Oh, that\u2019s interesting. I like that. Good. A very human robot. And that actually happened completely haphazardly. When I was in Knoxville, the last show they had up in the space they had a monitor up on the wall. And the guy who ran it said, \u201cHey, what do you think of this - can we hook you up to it?\u201d And I was like \u201cYeah!\u201d And it was amazing so we did it ever since. In Austin it was the best because I was situated in the window of the gallery on a really busy street. People were just watching the screen, watching me and this huge screen behind me. A big flat screen. Randomly. And often the artist would be there and there wasn\u2019t much space in the window so artists, if they wanted to read it, would be outside on the sidewalk, reading. People would stop and read and the artist would be like \u201cHey, that\u2019s my work she\u2019s writing about!\u201d and they would point to the work in the window, which was on the desk in front of me. It was really like a fishbowl.\n...it\u2019s not good enough art to be dealing with rape and abortion so fuck you basically.\nJP: My friend Cassie is a performance artist and she initially had the idea to come in and be the overeager art fan and bug you for a long time and apparently she decided not to.\nLW: Good. I\u2019m glad. Not quite in the spirit of it because it would have gotten in the way of other people\u2019s reviews. I\u2019m glad she didn\u2019t do that. Two people actually did, in a way, I think, though they\u2019re not performance artists, do something performative that I frankly resent because I feel it was not in the spirit of the whole performance. There was a guy who went by the name Charles Ives, which is obviously not his name because it\u2019s the name of a composer - probably dead, I don\u2019t know, I don\u2019t know much about music. So he put two pieces in and he sent me the email from someone else\u2019s email address and he didn\u2019t use his real name and he gives me this work that is pop derivative stuff and he gives me no information. And he gives me a magazine with some work that looks like this work reproduced in it under someone else\u2019s name. It\u2019s just like, give me a fucking break.\nJP: Was he trying to trick you?\nLW: Yes. He was kind of trying to trick me, test me. And he wrote about that in his email asking for the appointment that this entry would be a test of my art historical blah, blah, blah. So whatever, I gave him one of the harsher historically brimming reviews because he asked for it. But that \u2013 I don\u2019t need it you know? To me that\u2019s not interesting. And the other guy gave me two conceptual pieces, one which was soap in a soap dish, untitled, and one which was this text piece, I don\u2019t know if you read it, it was a one line thing, typed, that he put up on the back wall. It said,\n\u201cJohn \u2013 the rape was painful, Mike must never know about the abortion. LOL. \u2013 Lori.\u201d\nSpelt the way I spell my name. I read this and it was two entries after I did the other guy and it was like you are fucking kidding me, this has never happened in any other city what is with you people? Obviously made for me. I spoke to him after. I ended up just reviewing the soap dish piece in order to take the shit out of the soap dish piece, which it deserved for being extremely ungenerous in conceptual art. Like, I\u2019m sorry, you do that with no title - I have nowhere to go. Nowhere, no matter how well I know conceptual art history. So that\u2019s what I spent his review doing because I just didn\u2019t even want to touch the other piece. In retrospect, I\u2019m sorry I didn\u2019t because what I would have liked to have said was \u201cLook buddy, it\u2019s very cool that you made work for me, that\u2019s neat, however, this is not material that is appropriate to play with. Abortion, rape. Obviously, you\u2019re not trying to be funny, but it\u2019s not funny. And it\u2019s not good enough art to be dealing with rape and abortion so fuck you basically. I\u2019m sorry I didn\u2019t take the opportunity to address the fact that there is actually material that is not for treating lightly, that\u2019s not for playing with. You\u2019re going to deal with it? Mean it. And not to throw the men/women thing around but I can\u2019t imagine a woman doing that. Like he doesn\u2019t know if I\u2019ve been raped or had an abortion, I\u2019m not sure if he knows my husband\u2019s name is Michael or if that\u2019s just a coincidence, it wouldn\u2019t be that hard to find out but it could be a coincidence, it\u2019s a common enough name. But certainly I have friends who have had abortions and been raped whether I have or haven\u2019t. It\u2019s just not okay. It\u2019s just not okay. So those were two very unique experiences to Columbus that happened that I found quite theatrical to get back to the original question.\nJP: That\u2019s mystifying. Though I guess you are opening yourself up to anyone who feels\u2026\nLW: Yeah, but no one took advantage of it until then.\nJP: Yeah, because why would you?\nLW: There are plenty of people who I could think of in those situations that would. Like whatever, it didn\u2019t upset me \u2013 it pissed me off, it didn\u2019t upset me. Obviously the first guy is bitter towards critics and the second guy I don\u2019t think it has anything to do with bitterness, I think he is a shit disturber artist type, prankster kind of artist type and he thought it was a good opportunity to do so and he\u2019s right, it was. I just thought it was a really lousy prank and didn\u2019t make for good art. I don\u2019t like art like that.\nJP: Is that telling of the animosity between artists and art critics or is that feeling not really real?\nLW: I think most of the artists who participate are not getting reviewed, period. And if they have been reviewed I doubt they have been bad experiences, they\u2019ve just probably been very light kinds of reviews here and there or group shows and whatnot if anything at all. Except for this bitter experience, this bitter guy who clearly was bitter toward art critics and life in general and whatever shafting that was done towards him and he\u2019s older, like I could tell when he walked in, it was all there. I think a lot of the artists, certainly the ones who aren\u2019t coming out of art school, aren\u2019t expecting critics to write about their work. It\u2019s more curiosity of what a critic would think about my artwork and it\u2019s the MFA students or the post-BFA students for whom it\u2019s a potential professional issue.\nYou would be better off asking someone why they are going to art school \u2013 I can\u2019t answer that question. And a lot of them probably can\u2019t answer the question.\nJP: You mention in the description for 60 WRD/MIN that it is almost comedic how there are too many artists, too many galleries, that a critic could never cover all of them even if they wanted to.\nLW: Certainly not with newspapers cutting them right?\nJP: Yeah, in one way it\u2019s good to only pay attention to \u201cwhat\u2019s worth paying attention to\u201d but on the other hand that sets up a hierarchy that keeps the majority of art out. Which side of that do you think is better? Is there a \u201cbetter\u201d there?\nLW: Once upon a time everything did get covered. Back in the 50s.\nJP: Everything?\nLW: That\u2019s the way the history books tell it. In New York in the 1950s, even the 1940s, when there were a couple of galleries on Tenth Street and Eighth Street and the abstract expressionists were the in-guys. They were just starting and they had their own galleries and then there were the uptown galleries. There weren\u2019t that many galleries, really. Two or three critics could cover everything so everything got written about. There were no MFA programs then, surely there were some BFA programs but it wasn\u2019t a schooling thing. You had a really different scale and tracking of art back then but it was very serious. I don\u2019t know. A lot of fields have exploded in a similar way up to now so we can\u2019t expect that kind of coverage and I don\u2019t know what it would mean anyway.\nJP. But why are there even so many galleries too consider if most of them aren\u2019t even making money?\nLW: I think there are so many art galleries because there are so many art students.\nJP: Well, why are there so many art students?\nLW: Why are there so many art students? Everyone has to go to college now. And lots of people have to go to grad school - people didn\u2019t use to. I don\u2019t know, there\u2019s a lot more people. You would be better off asking someone why they are going to art school \u2013 I can\u2019t answer that question. And a lot of them probably can\u2019t answer the question.\nJP: One of my friends refers to this as \u201cThe Art Schooling of America.\u201d So many people are schooled in contemporary art but of what value is it for a broad base of the population to know something about contemporary art? However, you would think that would be a good thing for, for instance, the Tribune or the Alive, that they would want more art writers, if all these people do know about contemporary art or are going museums since there are so many art students coming of art schools than in the past.\nLW: It\u2019s still a fragment of the population. This is sort of off topic but since we\u2019re talking about it, I think I\u2019m more interested in art departments, good, radical art departments existing within universities than existing as art schools because then you get students studying in all kinds of disciplines, plenty of them practical or professional but also, for whatever reason, taking the occasional art class that just blows their minds and gives them this totally other way of looking at the world and processing it and making things and doing performance and relational projects or whatever and then they get to go back to math and medicine and music or theater or whatever disciplines and they get to bring that back with them. That for me is the interesting thing for an art education to do, more so then what happens for most people at an art school.\nJP: Even for strictly focused art students, if you\u2019re not learning about other things, what are you making art about? I realized a year through art school that I never had to take another history class and I wondered if I was even getting an education so I switched to a university. It seems crazy that all the art students at CCAD, for instance, don\u2019t have to necessarily study political science or history\u2026\nLW: So what\u2019s their work going to be about? I know, I feel exactly the same way. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I teach at an art school (SAIC) by choice. Because I like teaching art history to art students, that for me is the most interesting thing. I don\u2019t want to teach art history broadly. I like teaching it to the people who are making the stuff. But I\u2019m much more interested in exactly what you\u2019re talking about. Even if someone is going to major in Art History, do it in a university where you can go and take all these incredible classes in these other disciplines that are your content if you will. Because I don\u2019t like art about art, it\u2019s the least interesting of any thing to me.\nJP: And it seems like the art school system will only produce that?\nLW: Potentially. I mean obviously it doesn\u2019t, it also produces plenty of good stuff and I\u2019ve had the most incredible students in art schools but they\u2019ve usually taken classes outside and done extra research outside and have frustrations about what we\u2019ve been talking about.\n60 WRD/MIN ART CRITIC trailer from Arthouse at the Jones Center on Vimeo.\nRead Waxman's Austin reviews here.\nJP: How did you arrange the shows with the galleries logistically?\nLW: Called them up. You call up someone and say you have a grant from the Warhol Foundation and they will listen to you. And you say I have this fully funded thing that is really good for your local artists and will bring them in. Everyone was on board within 5 minutes if they understood what I was talking about in 5 minutes. As soon as they got what I was explaining everyone said yes. It was just a matter of getting the dates hammered out.\nJP: And how did you pick ROY G BIV out in Columbus?\nLW: I know nothing about the regions in the U.S. at all but I knew that is where I wanted to go. So I spoke to Sylvie Fortin who is the editor at Art Papers, which has fantastic regional coverage, and asked her where I should go and are there any places in those particular cities you think I should call up. And she gave me a long list. I think she didn\u2019t know a place in Columbus but she felt I should go to Columbus so I just did some research and ROY is the longest running gallery for emerging artists in town and so it was the obvious place. I mean, is there anywhere else in Columbus that I might have done it given that I am not interested in institutions?\nJP: There would be some commercial galleries and then DIY spaces.\nLW: I don\u2019t want to do it in commercial galleries. And DIY spaces, I mean Knoxville was a DIY space, an amazing art space called The Art Gallery of Knoxville that doesn\u2019t exist anymore, amazing one man job. But it runs smoother the more infrastructure the place has. So actually the best one thus far on that level has been Arthouse in Texas because it\u2019s the biggest, most professional institution I\u2019ve done it in. They just raised the bar - like they made wall text. They made window text, vinyl window text lettering. I was like, \u201cWow, really, that\u2019s so cool I\u2019ve got to remember to do this in other places.\u201d I would have never thought of it.\nJP: I guess I was confused about the project because you also went to larger cities\u2026\nLW: New York and Chicago were the first two places I ever did it. I lived in New York and I lived in Chicago when I did it in those places. And that was before I realized how much more interesting it was outside of large cities and the only way I realized that was the guy in Knoxville heard about me and invited me down and I said OK and went wow. The project completely expanded and got more specific and subtle and interesting and I\u2019ll never do it again in New York or Chicago, I\u2019ll never do it in L.A.\nJP: It seems like there should maybe even be someone like you all the time, like a scout for the art world to go to these places. Did anyone approach you to say, \u201cIf you do see something that is really great\u2026\u201d\nLW: That\u2019s funny. Maybe someone will at some point if someone writes about this project in a prominent enough place, that hasn\u2019t happened yet, I also haven\u2019t sent the press release to Artforum or something. So no one is going to know about it unless they read the Warhol Foundation information, which people do and did hear about it, but that would be really funny. I would say no actually. No, I wouldn\u2019t say no, why would I say no? But you can just go on to my website and look because I post everything up there eventually.\nJP: Some of the most \u201cfamous\u201d artists from Columbus have been shunned from the art world and it\u2019s interesting to see that if you are stuck in that geographical location what your options are. There was this artist, Emerson Burkhart, who was a figurative painter in the 40s and 50s, and he was just a big fish in a small pond sort of thing but everyone in Columbus talks about him and he is collected by regional museums and it\u2019s so odd to think that every city across America has someone like that. Your project seems to be fulfilling some sort of Johnny Appleseedesque role by looking at people who do want to be looked at and I think that is cool and needed. It\u2019s just strange how something like art is processed so geographically.\nLW: But it makes sense but its actually mostly still physical stuff. As much as we reproduce it, it doesn\u2019t really. I mean yeah, plenty of stuff gets shipped around the world more and more and more but most of it doesn\u2019t. It\u2019s not like the writer who can work anywhere and send their manuscript off and it doesn\u2019t matter where it came from.\nJP: It\u2019s not even like musicians either; there have been big musicians from Columbus all the time.\nLW: There are a lot more music scenes that get scouted than local art scenes that get scouted to go back to the scouting idea you had.\nJP: Isn\u2019t that odd?\nLW: Yes, I think it is. I think that is, come to think of it and it\u2019d be interesting for someone to try and sort that out.\nLabels: \"The Media\", 60 WRD/MIN, Art Criticism, Artforum, Bad At Sports, Chicago, Chicago Tribune, Columbus Alive, Interviews, Lori Waxman, Performance Art, ROY G BIV, Warhol Foundation, writing\nSheilah Grogan said...\nAs an artist who was reviewed by Lori in Detroit recently, I have to say that I enjoyed this article very much.

        "title": "What Will Phil Emery Be Looking For in the Draft? Think Size. - Bear(ing) the News - A Chicago Bears BlogBear(ing) the News \u2013 A Chicago Bears Blog",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 Age is in Your Mind\nWhat the Addition of Brian De La Puente Tells Us \u2192\nBears general manager Phil Emery is a tough guy to figure out, especially when it comes to the NFL draft. Emery has a habit of going his own way. He sticks to his board and takes the guys he believes in no matter what outside influences might think. His picks in the first round of his first two NFL drafts, Shea McClellin and Kyle Long, were both taken when conventional wisdom would have indicated that the Bears go in another direction.\nSo guessing who Emery is going to take this year in the draft is a bit of a exercise in futility. But we might be able to guess what he\u2019ll be looking for in whoever he chooses. In this regard, Dan Pompei\u2019s statement for the Bleacher Report was never more true:\n\u201cThe draft class has a number of prospects who are smaller than ideal. Many of these players will be downgraded significantly by some teams, but not by others, because undersized players need to be scheme fits.\u201d\nIt\u2019s a decent bet that Emery was one of the general managers that Pompei was thinking about. When asked at the NFL Combine about what he\u2019s learned from the McClellin experiment, Emery said this:\n\u201cIn terms of pure defensive ends probably make sure they\u2019re a little bit longer and a little bit heavier.\u201d\nWhen asked about new defensive end Willie Young, once again, Emery emphasized his size and length (6 feet 4, 251 pounds):\n\u201cHe has 35-inch arms. He uses that advantage to gain leverage and separation. He has strong hands, a good punch. He\u2019s a good athlete with a lot of upside.\u201d\nIts true that Emery was talking about defensive ends. But the lesson can probably be applied to any position along the defensive line and, with the size of the receivers in the NFC North, you can figure Emery won\u2019t be drafting any smallish cornerbacks. Wide receiver? One look at Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery is all you need to make a pretty good guess at Emery\u2019s thinking in third option. He\u2019s also at some point going to be looking for a second tight end who can block to compliment Martellus Bennett and a running back who can run inside in short yardage situations to complement Matt Forte.\nWith this in mind, let\u2019s take a look at some of the more likely prospects that may be available when the Bears pick and see what they might be thinking. Bear in mind that this is strictly a judgment in terms of height and weight. These players may not have the other characteristics Emery might be looking for. However, we might use such a list as an initial effort at trimming the field:\nProspects that Don\u2019t Fit:\nAaron Donald, DT \u2013 6\u201d0 3/4\u201d, 285 lb\nDarqueze Dennard, CB \u2013 5\u201910 7/8\u201d, 199 lb\nCalvin Pryor, S \u2013 5\u201911 1/8\u2033, 207 lb\nBradley Robey, CB \u2013 5\u201911 1/4\u201d, 194 lb\nProspects that Fit:\nMike Evens, WR \u2013 6\u20194 3/4\u201d, 231 lbs (admittedly highly highly unlikely to still be there)\nC.J.

        "raw_content": "Even if my marriage is falling apart and my children are unhappy, there is still a part of me that says, 'God! This is fascinating!'\n-- Jane Smiley\nTiananmen Square: Remembered\nVia Glenn Reynolds, I find this video that reminds us of Chinese rule and the lack of freedom and the fight that people in China still have in front of them for basic human rights. The Tiananmen Square massacre happened on June 4, 1989.\nAsia might be a great opportunity for business, but China is brutal on its citizens who dare to disagree.\nYou might not agree with our nation's foreign policies or domestic agenda, but here in America, you can freely speak your mind and suffer no recourse from it.\nDemocracy for all mankind is a most compassionate goal. Everyone wants to be free. Let's help them.\nI read Dana Gardner's post about the \"grass-roots media future - for the enterprise.\"\nIf John Lasseter can chat about what goes on behind the scenes at Pixar, why can't I get podcast \"bonus materials\" on who designed my favorite widget? Or my favorite iTunes feature? Or probe the accounting minds behind my QuickBooks Pro application?\nMaybe a blog with comments spawned from the podcast would provide valuable user feedback and powerful market research for future products and brands. You can't beat the value of an actual ongoing conversation on what makes people love or hate the products and brands they use \u2026 and they give it to you for free, if you let them.\nI completely agree with Dana on this. Why have layers of people and management between the developer and the user?\nBut I know exactly why those layers exist: it's idea laundering. You know, with money laundering they have various \"clean\" fronts for the money taken illegitimately and then come up with it through a series of bogus transactions so that it looks as if the money came through legitimate means. Well, this way, the idea looks like it came to the development team unsolicited from users for the many people in between the development team and the user.\nIt's about protecting intellectual property.\nIt's about money.\nLong ago, I sold shareware that I had written and put it out on the Internet and peope downloaded it and I made money from it. I had one woman write me and suggest a feature that was a good idea, but also a no-brainer for a future enhancement and was already planned. She wrote, \"And if you implement this idea, which I think will make you a ton of money, I expect some sort of royalty.\"\nAs though for the sheer 5 seconds of grace from her brain I now owe her a significant portion of my product's income.\nI wrote her back. \"I've spent 600 hours on this product just in development alone, not to mention marketing time and so on. If I leverage my future development of this feature, plus what I currently have into this product, your demand of 20% of my gross revenue is inflated. By my calculation on hours alone, your contribution is a fraction of a percent.\"\nIdeas are cheap; implementation is expensive and hard.\nBlogs and comments for companies by the employees are a great step forward for interaction with the customer, but while people might believe that they \"own\" their idea and believe that it's worth millions by merely speaking it forward in less than a minute's time, companies are at risk to accept such interaction. Which is lousy for the future of products. We all benefit by a broader discussion that brings the consumers to the manufacturers in conversation. But we can't, and we like to blame that on lawyers.\nIt's not the lawyers, though. It's us. Until we get over the price of an idea.\nHow the New York Times Drives Business\nA lot of folks on the right side of the blogosphere are up in arms this week over the New York Times' disclosure of a legal and effective money trail surveillance program aimed at finding terrorists. They should be mad; it's wonderful when you're battling America to have America's own national media serve as an arm of your intelligence services.\nThe reaction I've seen has been umbrage over the Times' insistence that this was in the \"public interest.\" I say \"Hooey.\" In fact, it was for a different reason and all of the bloggers just helped the cause of the New York Times, in my opinion.\nNewspaper readership has been in decline for quite some time. But not at the New York Times. They have a winning formula. It's called \"sensationalism.\" Here's the formula:\nWrite an article that is not quite as titillating as, say, Brangelina's latest escapade. Instead, write about something that skirts the edge of national security and gossip and everyday Joe concerns. An example is trending phone records for terrorist activity. Remember that one? Yep, the Times broke that too. An article like that gets the New York Times web site traffic meters humming because everyone on all sides of the blogosphere links to it. Especially those on the right. Which is perfect for the Times. This has nothing to do with reporting and journalism. It has everything to do with revenue. It is, after all, a business. And the righties help them out with furious and passionate links to the New York Times.\nMe, I ignore the Times. No link from me. Why help them?\nI know that attribution is important, but seriously - why help the New York Times and reward them with traffic for doing the wrong thing?\nI read a quote a few days ago that said something like, \"The problem is rarely the problem. The problem is usually the reaction to the problem.\"\nI've been noticing lately that what seems to cause conflict in relationships - at work, at home, between friends, etc - is the response to a person's insecurity.\nWe're all insecure at times. This will drive us to do really stupid and drastic things to protect ourselves that we might not otherwise do, but insecurity is not really rational. And so we do the thing we never thought we'd do, or we say the thing we never thought we'd say. Did we mean to do or say it? It seems as though it were driven by a different side of us. Which is true, in a way. Our instincts rise up and it's fight or flight and we react. It's never classy when this happens. We're usually ashamed of our behavior later.\nI think our reaction to someone's insecurity is where we spur the frightened beast and the problem then escalates and becomes the problem. Rather than recognize it, we can react back and make it worse.\nI can't control the behavior of others, but I can control my response to their behavior. By believing that the reaction is the problem, I can usually take someone's insecurity and calm it with an even-handed response.\nCool hands, warm heart - isn't that the saying?",

        "raw_content": "I have been around some business owners and senior leaders of late that have wanted to let some staff go. They have almost given themselves a stomach ulcer trying to work out how to \u201cmanage them out\u201d not to mention the negative impact to the customer and toxicity festering in their culture.\nI\u2019m sure you are reading this thinking \u2018oh yeah I\u2019ve been there before\u2019. To be honest let\u2019s give ourselves a break, we have all made a bad hire at some point \u2013 you just never know.\nCheck out what American company Zappos are doing, it\u2019s kind of awesome. I\u2019m loving exploring the less conventional ways of doing things of late \u2013 for all the right intentions of course.\nFirst, some background. As most of you know, Zappos sells shoes online \u2013 like a lot of shoes. This company is fanatical about great service, not just satisfying customers, but amazing them. The company promises free, four-day delivery but most of the time it delivers next-day service, a surprise that leaves a lasting impression on customers: \u201cYou said four days, but I got them the next morning!\u201d\nThis is a small example of why they are such a success and will expect to generate sales of more than $1 billion USD this year up from just $70 million five years ago. The other not so small reason why this company is such a success is that the company is bursting with personality.\nMost of the job roles for the 1,600 employees is; answering phones and talking to customers for hours at a time. So when Zappos hires new employees, it provides a four-week training period that immerses them in the company\u2019s strategy, culture, and obsession with customers. People get paid their full salary during this period and Wait for it\u2026 this is the cool bit: After a week or so in this immersive experience, it\u2019s time for what Zappos calls \u201cThe Offer.\u201d They say: \u201cIf you quit today, we will pay you for the amount of time you\u2019ve worked, plus we will offer you a $1,000 bonus.\u201d Zappos actually bribes its new employees to quit. Why? Because if you\u2019re willing to take the company up on The Offer, you obviously don\u2019t have the sense of commitment they are looking for \u2013 Boom!!\nYou\u2019re under pressure to continue to financially perform.\nYou\u2019re constantly seeking loyal staff that will create loyal customers.\nYou spend a truckload of time and money on recruitment processes and it\u2019s hard work\u2026\nTagged with: employee retention loyalty pressure recruitment self management staff team management",

        "raw_content": "Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.Thomas A. Edison\nAre you a relatively new to trading? Are you frustrated and ready to give up? You have read many of the trading books, followed all the trading \"gurus,\" and worked tirelessly. Yet, despite all your efforts, your account is lagging badly.\nSave heart, your experience is common. When you start out, new traders are excited. They dream of success, the recognition that huge profits will bring. Some indeed achieve early success, but many soon discover that achieving success consistently can be elusive. Many people are drawn to trading, but few can trade profitability. The winning trader is a special breed, a person who is highly motivated, but at the same time is realistic and able to persist in the face of adversity, this describes, I am quit sure, most of you.\nIt's easy to get yourself \"psyched up\" when you first start out: You merely convince yourself, \"All I have to do is apply myself and I'll achieve high profitability.\" This is a good positive attitude, but the \"power of positive thinking\" doesn't usually go very far in terms of achieving trading success. It makes you feel good, but then you find that hard work and persistence does not necessarily pay off. You need sound trading strategies you need to expose yourself to a variety of market conditions, and you must hone your trading skills. Successful trading requires talent, and there's no way to develop one's talents without extensive practice. Just think of your favorite sports hero, how often and for how long have they trained and practiced to develop their talent?\nWhile a positive attitude is very good, a healthy skepticism is paramount. When it comes to trading, you can't believe anything your read or hear. The only time\nyou actually know that you've stumbled upon a profitable trading strategy is when it, indeed, produces a profit. Just convincing yourself you can master the markets with sheer determination and willpower will not get you very far. You must accept the fact that, in the end, trading is like a game, a game of probabilities. Obviously you must take it seriously on one hand, but you must also learn to enjoy the process. Experienced traders take the game seriously, they acknowledge that real money is on the line and it is likely that real losses can wipe out one's account. They address this issue utilizing money and risk management (money management on your total account and risk management on individual trades). No trading strategy is foolproof.\nRealize that despite all your efforts, it is quite possible that some unforeseen adverse event can go against your trade, or that current market conditions may just not be conducive to your trading plan. That's where a happy-go-lucky attitude comes in. I believe it's important to view trading like a sport. If you score the winning point, fine. But if you miss it, don't get too bogged down. Just pick yourself up and try again. Eventually, with enough practice and experience, you will move into the realm of the seasoned professional. It is not going to happen over night. It will take time and practice. And that's where the motivation comes in. It is easy to stay motivated for a short time, if you think the payoff will be large and relatively immediate. Trading is a profession where you can go through long periods with little progress. Over the years, a great deal of money will be spent on commissions, losses, apparatus, and instructional materials.\nThe would-be professional trader isn't fazed by it all. He or she views the money spent on trading as similar to what any professional spends on college tuition. He or she believes that eventually, his or her time and effort will pay off. The winning trader is highly motivated. He or she admits that trading is a challenge and that success is far from assured. Despite this harsh reality, the winning trader persists until he or she achieves consistent profitability.",

        "raw_content": "The Digital revolution | CBSE NCERT Solutions Online\nMany years back, Start Trek (the original) told us that \u2018space is the final frontier\u2019. Today living in the 21st century, we exist in a world devoid of any frontiers. Most of us are but a digital identity in a Digital world. Almost everything around us is either digital or getting to it at a fast pace. This is the age of having virtual conversations, virtual meetings, virtual shopping, and virtual relationships \u2013 a virtual life indeed.\nBeing a virtual being, can the education sector be far behind?

        "raw_content": "I wrote \u201cThe Beginning\u201d not to sound sorry for myself or to say that nothing was great about coming to America. You see, everyone has the American dream. The dream of getting to the land of freedom. You can ask anyone over the seas, and most of them will probably be thrilled to come here.\nBack to the reasoning, there is no reason really. I just wrote out of depression and maybe desperation, but really to fulfill my purpose and just to mention again, incase anyone misses it while looking at other entries, that I have been given the greatest gift that I could ever possibly receive. It was never \u201cmy dream\u201d to come to America. I came to see my beloved father, that\u2019s really all. But what I later found out was that if I had stayed in Tehran, the beautiful capital of Iran, it would have become a dream for me too. I would have wanted to leave at some point or another. But I got lucky. A dear friend of mine reminded me, after I wrote \u201cThe Beginning\u201d, that I should not forget to thank my parents for bringing me here. It\u2019s because of them that I have the ability to write from deep within my heart about my life and memories. I write, almost always, thinking of my past and everything that is credited to me being here, typing these words. I am nothing without the support and love from my family, my cousins, my friends, and my teachers who encouraged me to write. I owe this to them. And I want to thank them and all of my readers. It really means a lot to me that someone out there cares and can connect to what I write. It makes me happy; it makes me want to write\u2026\nThe first time I walked on Manchester Street in Virginia, where I have been living now for about six years, I was an outsider, lost, looking for a way to fit into the crowd. A crowd of all nations, cultures with so many faces that mine was lost among them. I felt as though I would never be able to feel normal again. The unfamiliar roads were too foggy, too hard to pass through, so out of reach. I never thought I would make it; there were too many things to know. It was like starting life all over again, from zero. The stores were too big, the roads were too wide, I was a lost kid, trying to figure out where to go. Where ever I went, I was being watched; at least that\u2019s how I felt at the time. The scarf around my head (at the time I still wore a scarf, I had been used to wearing it in Iran) felt too out of place. I never knew what to wear, how to look, what to say, I didn\u2019t want to say anything. I hated going outside, everything was too strange, too different from what I had been used to. The nights were the worst, I had to sleep in an apartment where nothing felt real, the empty walls, the empty rooms, the loneliness of it still makes me sick. I was hurt, I felt betrayed. I felt betrayed because they told me America was going to be great. But it wasn\u2019t, not then. I was alone and misunderstood, I was twelve years old. How was I supposed to understand that it was for the best, that it was the first step towards a successful future? Mornings were depressing; breakfast was a way to be distracted from the somber atmosphere. I felt small and belittled, a vapor. Life was unfair, ridiculous, but I had a loving mom and dad who left their children, my siblings, behind in hopes of meeting them again in America. They came to forget a past that was too unbearable and to give me a life where I could make my own decisions, find my own peace of mind and my freedom. It was a new beginning for them too. They understood why they had come, I hadn\u2019t yet.

        "raw_content": "If you look at fitness magazines for women you will find a lot of suggestions for cardio routines, articles on toning certain body parts, and strength training using light dumbbells. The truth is that women should strength train just as men do for full body health and fitness. Unfortunately this message has not been widely spread, and women are missing out on this important aspect of fitness.\nMost women want to slim down and be smaller. A common misconception is that if they lift heavy weights they will become big and bulky like men. That could not be further from the truth, as due to hormones and the way the bodies of men and women differ, it is a lot easier for men to put on muscle. By lifting heavier weights women will get some muscle definition but stay lean, unless they are using supplements specifically for that reason.\nWeight rooms can be intimidating places for women, especially if they are not familiar with proper form for exercises. They are usually male dominated and women can feel alone and self conscious if there are not other women around. To avoid possibly feeling uncomfortable women will just avoid the free weights and instead use another part of the gym, which is a shame. If there is more knowledge given to women about lifting heavy weights, they will feel more confident about joining in and not feeling alienated.\nThis is not to say that cardio does not have its benefits. It is great for your heart and lungs, can reduce the risk of diseases, and can improve cholesterol levels. Both men and women will benefit from cardio exercises, but it should not be marketed as the only solution to weight loss for women. By building muscle, more calories are burned over the course of a day and with a healthy diet, that can result in weight loss.\nWhen starting any new exercise routine, it is important to talk to your doctor about your plans and get the okay to proceed. After that, where do you start?\nHiring a personal trainer can be a big help to women new to lifting weights. They will be able to keep an eye on your form to make sure you are doing the exercises right, which is important to help prevent injuries. They could also suggest routines that are suitable for your fitness level.\nSome people do not enjoy exercising in public, in which case online is a great tool available to help learn new exercises. There are many websites devoted to weight lifting that include detailed videos made by professionals to watch at home. Especially if you are exercising alone, it is important to keep the weights light when trying an exercise for the first time. Once you are familiar with the proper form you can add more weight.\nThere are many reasons women have shied away from lifting heavy weights, but that should no longer be the case. It is time to ignore the media and instead focus on becoming strong. For full body health and fitness, both men and women should add strength training into their exercise routines.\nThis entry was posted in Exercise and tagged Exercise, Resistance Training, Weight Lifting.

HARRIS, New York Times\nJimmy Sangster, a prolific screenwriter best known for his classic 1950s horror movies that dipped into the cinematic delights of gore and sex and helped define the British company Hammer Films, died on Friday. He was 83.\nAmong Mr. Sangster\u2019s biggest hits were the Gothic horror films \u201cThe Curse of Frankenstein\u201d (1957), \u201cDracula\u201d (1958), and \u201cThe Mummy\u201d (1959).\nMr. Sangster was a production manager at Hammer when he was drafted to write his first feature-length picture. That film, \u201cX The Unknown,\u201d (1956) featured a radioactive blob from the center of the earth, a clever exploitation of contemporary fears of all things nuclear. He recalled in an interview that he was paid 200 pounds for the script.\nThose early films, generally shot in rapid succession on tight budgets, were not immediate critical darlings. According to news reports, reviews called several of Sangster\u2019s movies sadistic, nauseating and wholly unimaginative. But they were popular with audiences and are cult classics today.\n\u201cThey basically reinvented the genre,\u201d said Simon Oakes, the president of Hammer. Those movies, he explained, took horror out of the land of lumpy monsters and brought to it a physicality, sexuality and vivid style. \"Dracula,\u201d one of the first British horror films to be shot in color, helped establish the actor Christopher Lee, who played \u201cthe terrifying lover who died \u2014 yet lived\u201d (in the words of one of its tag lines), as a sex symbol.\nIn interviews, Mr. Sangster, who had an easy, self-effacing humor, recalled his psychological thrillers, not the Gothics, as his own favorite pictures. Those included \u201cThe Scream of Fear,\u201d (1961) which Mr. Oakes said the present-day Hammer Films is in the process of remaking, and \u201cParanoiac,\u201d a 1963 film The New York Times called an \u201ceconomical little chiller,\u201d and something \u201ctantalizingly close to a bulls-eye.\u201d\nAsked by the website Hammer Graveyard what led him to the horror genre, he replied, \u201cI wrote horror movies because it was my job,\u201d adding, \u201cSo, when anyone asks me what were the influences that prompted me to be a \u2018horror film\u2019 writer, I tell them it was Wages!\u201d\nJames Henry Kinmel Sangster was born on Dec. 2, 1927, in North Wales. He starting working in films at 16, made his way up from gopher to screenwriter, and even directed a handful of movies including \u201cThe Horror of Frankenstein.\u201d\nMr. Sangster\u2019s survivors include his wife, the actress Mary Peach, and a son, Mark James Sangster.\nIn the 1970s, when horror movie fans spun toward Hollywood films like \u201cThe Exorcist\u201d (1973), Mr. Sangster began writing for American television, both TV movies and series, including \u201cThe Six Million Dollar Man,\u201d \u201cIronside\u201d and \u201cKolchak: The Night Stalker,\u201d which he continued to do for more than two decades.\nHe also wrote an autobiography called \u201cDo You Want It Good or Tuesday?\u201d (published in the United States in 2009) as well as several novels, mostly mysteries and crime stories, featuring the occasional gun runner, or, in the case of \u201cTouchfeather,\u201d (Norton, 1968), a woman The New York Times described as an \u201cundercover sex-pot.\u201d But it was those early successes with a lusty vampire and Gothic terrors that made his reputation.\n\u201cAll of a sudden I\u2019m a cult figure,\u201d Mr. Sangster said to The Daily Telegraph in 1996. \u201cBut it\u2019s all due to about five movies: a couple of Frankensteins, a couple of Draculas, and a mummy.\"\nSubject: Re: Obituaries Wed Aug 24, 2011 7:43 am\nSorry to read about Jimmy Sangster. His name is not well known outside of Hammer circles but he wrote many very effective scripts. His 'Screenwriting Techniques for Success' is a rare example of a screenwriting manual written by someone who's actually got some decent credits.\nI don't often look at screenwriting manuals/guides, but I might have to take a peek at Sangster's.\nHasn't got a good rating on Amazon. Only one review though I might add.\nWell, it's just one of his unsold scripts bookended. That's Sangster all over. Selling an old script twice.\nDoesn't alter the fact that he had 30 or so films made from his scripts. That's 30 more than most authors of these things.\nSubject: Re: Obituaries Fri Sep 09, 2011 3:22 am\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/08/movies/george-kuchar-underground-filmmaker-dies-at-69.html\nLocation : Pac NW\nSubject: Re: Obituaries Fri Sep 09, 2011 2:40 pm\nShe was the production designer on THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND.

Architect John Wood, and his son John Wood the Younger, are responsible for Bath\u2019s Georgian Crescents and Circuses. John Wood\u2019s grand vision of a \u2018city of palaces\u2019 comes together in The Circus.\nStarted in 1754, the circle of inwards facing classical facades is divided into three equal segments by access streets so that no matter from which direction you approach The Circus you are confronted with a delightful vista. Each segment consists of 33 identical attached houses. Each house front features three types of columns - Ionic, Doric and Corinthian.\nThe Circus originally encircled a paved area which covered the water supply for the houses. In 1800 this paved area was turned into a garden and is now home to a group of beautiful old plane trees.\nIt is hard to believe that these beautiful houses were actually built as a speculative development project with the exterior \u2018shells\u2019 being sold to builders to complete inside as their clients wished.\nJohn Wood the Elder died before his project was completed in 1768 but his son, John Wood the Younger was so pleased with the result that he went on to create the Royal Crescent which can be reached by leaving The Circus along Brook Street.\nYou can either walk up the hill up Gay Street to The Circus or take the \u2018Open-Top Bus Tour\u2019 and alight at \u2018The Circus\u2019 stop.\nGoogle Maps - The Circus, Bath",

        "raw_content": "Fear Me Not (2008)****\nThe first remarkable aspect of this chilling Danish film is the visual production values. Vibrant colors and beautiful settings, landscapes, clouds, interiors, weather, beautifully composed shots, jump right off the page. FEAR ME NOT is a disturbing story of the complete mental disintegration of Mikael, a successful businessman who appears to have it all. His decision to participate in a drug trial being run by his wife\u2019s brother for a Swedish company who manufacture anti-depressants first strikes us as odd, and when he hides his participation from his wife, we begin to assume, rightly, the worst.\nWith a month\u2019s supply of the experimental drugs in his briefcase, he takes off to hang out, alone, in the modest house he grew up in, somewhere in the north. Both his wife and his 13-yr old daughter are concerned and a little suspicious when he tells them he is going to visit his aging mother in a nursing home. He drops out of sight and stops, for the most part, answering his cell phone, as he keeps a journal of the exhilarating effects of the drug he is taking and mulls over his life situation. It would be a classic midlife meltdown, except that this man is becoming truly unzipped. He begins to act on very dark impulses, all the while analyzing his new self-awareness.\nThere are some mind-boggling twists in this dark story. It kept me riveted and was thrillingly lovely to look at, but it was a little hokey to have this guy share his insights in a spooky, echo chamber voice as he self-destructs, and the ending is less than 100% satisfying. First rate acting by Ulrich Thomsen as Mikael, and top shelf direction by Kristian Levring. The plot will swing your brain around more than once! Recommended.",

        "raw_content": "A Look At Small Business Consulting\nMost business owners will tell you that a professional business consultant is only to be used when your business is in trouble. These business owners will usually only higher a consultant when they are beginning to run over on cost or time, and are in need of finishing a project quickly. However, small business consulting can be far more beneficial than just solving problems.\nA consultant can do much more than help you fix problems within your company. Hiring a business consultant is actually a great way to look at issues in your business on a far greater perspective. Business owners typically have a limited vision for the outcome of their business plans because they are the only ones involved in the business. A consultant can help to bring some clarity to the owner\u2019s process to help get the most out of his thoughts for his company.\nSo, does your business need a consultant? Continue reading to find out.\nBefore you seek a business consultant it is important that you know what a consultant is. A consultant is a business professional who looks at the pros and cons of a businesses strategies, and will advice you and what to do. A consultant offers a variety of services ranging from business start-up advice to formulating marketing strategies, operation analysis to making business plans.\nBefore you go and hire a consultant you need to take a look at your business and ask yourself some questions. You need to ask yourself what gains you are trying to get from your business, are your products in the right market, and have you done everything you can to advertise your business? Can you benefit from local search on the internet, and so on.\nIf you ask yourself these questions and answer them truthfully, you will begin to motivate yourself to improve the performance of your business by working on the areas that you need to improve. If you find the problem with your business and are unable to find the solution to the problem through the internet, books, etc., and all else fails, it is time to approach a consultant.\nThere are many consultants available today and it is important that you choose the one that will be right for you. You are going to need to do some research to find which consultants can be trusted, are reliable, and are going to be able to solve your businesses problems. However, remember that a consultant is a third party person who will only be able to help your business as much as you allow them to. They are not going to know anything about your business except what you tell them, so help them help you improve your business.\nHiring small business consulting can be a great way to improve your business, but should be considered a last resort. Take a good look at your business and ask yourself if you have done everything you can to make it successful; and, if all else fails, you know a consultant will be able to get the job done for you.\nPrevious Entry: Advantages of Business Consulting Services\nNext Entry: A Useful Guide in Business Consulting Firms\nPrevious Entry Advantages of Business Consulting Services\nNext Entry A Useful Guide in Business Consulting Firms",

Now that I\u2019ve finished it and I\u2019m thinking about it I realize how good it is. I\u2019ve seen a lot of negative reviews for this book and I can understand why some people wouldn\u2019t like this. The writing takes getting used to it. I personally thought it was beautiful (created a special shelf just because of this book), but it is unusual and it took me first 20% to get into the book. For example, Emily is in the middle of a birthday party, then she s [...]\nThis book confused and upset me a lot. At the beginning I was like, \"This is the greatest, most hilarious thing ever! People should need to be granted a license before they're allowed to write any books, and I should be the official in charge of deciding who can obtain such a license, and I will not give one to anybody except this Alison Espach.\" I was stunned and amazed and just thought it was the greatest (contemporary American) thing I could remember having read in years.Then things started t [...]\nCam *tactile seeker* says:\n3,5 stars*Spoilers ahead, sorry!*HEY, GREAT THINKERS: IS THERE A GOD? WHAT IS MOST REAL? THE MOLECULES THAT MAKE UP THE AIR, OR THE FEELINGS YOU HAVE INSIDE YOU?Wow, I'm not the only fucking mess around!That's what I thought a lot, while I was reading The Adults.I expected a classic coming of age novel, where the MC started as clueless and desperate and little bit naive and ended up being successful and full of wisdom and with a family of her own. To be honest with you, the latter was more like [...]\n(Yes, there are spoilers.)I heard about Allison Espach's debut novel, The Adults because, as a resident of Fort Greene/Clinton Hill, Brooklyn herself, she was going to be reading at my local bookstore. Her novel--and its heroine, the disenchanted fourteen-year-old Emily Vidal--seem to promise a fresh take on that oh-so-recurrent plotline: Rich Girl from Connecticut Isn't Buying It and Rebels. So I went down to the bookstore and grabbed a copy off the shelf, just to give the first page a test-rea [...]\nRachel Elizabeth says:\nAs far back as I can remember, I've had a preoccupation with older men. Adults. I can remember being 13 years old and putting on a nice skirt to \"impress\" a friend of my parents, who I now realize would have been in his thirties at the time and married with children besides, a wildly inappropriate choice for a schoolgirl crush. There have been crushes on teachers in high school, professors in college, middle-aged law enforcement officers who are married with teenaged or adult children, now that [...]\nDebut novel about an upscale Connecticut town in the 1990s-2000s. Based on reviews, my expectations were not in line with the reality of this book. I expected a tale of the misdeeds of wealthy adult suburbanites as told through the eyes of a fourteen year old girl. While the novel starts this way it goes in a vastly different direction. There is no concise through-plot here. Things are told as an aside, with flashbacks popping up in the middle of random paragraphs. At first this works and is con [...]\nI pretty much got back on because of this book. It is so amazing !! The Adults touched me [whoa there's a sentence right there] the way that Extremely Loud and Incredible Close and A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius did. And yes, maybe I do love \"every stereotypical book that twenty-something white people like\" [as my friend puts it], but turns out I am a twenty-something white person and I la-huved it. Espach's raw interpretation of middle school brought me right back to writing the mos [...]\nI don't ever write reviews for books, but this was such a disappointment that it seems necessary. The Adults did have the potential to be a good book - unfortunately, Espach did not realize that potential. It is a pretentious and exaggerated book that had an unrealistic protagonist. As a fellow young adult, I thought I would at least be able to empathize with Emily, but she is such a caricature that this is impossible. The author attempts to shock you at every turn with how grotesque yet meaning [...]\nRarely have I read first novels that are truly captivating, with memorable characters and settings that will endure long in my memory. Even rarer still are those first novels that represent the emergence of a truly original literary voice replete with memorable, truly exceptional, prose. Over the span of two and a half decades, only four first novels have I found quite captivating and notable as exceptional debuts by their authors, who have become since important writers of modern Anglo-American [...]\nHeather Colacurcio says:\nThis is precisely the kind of novel I consistently look for, but rarely find. Protagonist Emily Vidal is caught between two worlds - the world of her teenage existence and the world of the adults. Emily's previously carefree, childish existence is complicated when she witnesses a suicide and begins a confusing relationship with a teacher. We follow Emily as she struggles with her quickly changing family life, barely understanding her parents and grappling with how their decisions affect her. Esp [...]\nJacqueline Toce says:\nIf I could give this book 2 1/2 stars I would. I think the author did a good job of developing the characters and the plot, I just hated them all. I found the story to be very disturbing. The description on the jacket said it was supposed to be funny. There were a few funny scenes in the book but on the whole it wasn't funny. Without giving away too much of the plot, the main character, Emily, has an affair with her high school English teacher and it seems to be because her father has left the f [...]\nLaura Thompson says:\nMeh. I dunno. I see what the fuss is about--this book is weird, the author says things in a unique way. Woohoo. It's just that I didn't like or understand Emily, not even when she was a little girl at the beginning of the book. I felt like Emily, and everyone in the book really, was just written to allow the author to show off the fact that she writes surprising sentences. Nothing actually connected for me. I felt sad for Emily and many of the characters, but not sad as their pathetic circumstan [...]\nI no longer actively seek out books I know I will hate. The anaerobic thrill of speed reading through adjective abuse and gender stereotypes has lost its thrill and now I simply prefer to read things I like and not read things I don\u2019t like. Goodbye, Tao Lin. Adios, Stephenie Meyer. On the other hand, I will still commit to something I\u2019m dubious about. Meet Alison Espach\u2019s \u201cThe Adults.\u201d It has a real chick lit walk and talk, as though chick lit was stopped in the bathroom by a tall woma [...]\nDestinee Sutton says:\nThough the writing was witty and the plot kept me interested, I was ultimately a little disappointed at the end of this. How is Emily different at the end of this book? What's going to happen to her? It's kind of unsatisfying for a book to follow a character from age 14 to 30 and then just stop when the character's on the verge of maybe figuring some stuff out. Hmph. I did like the twist with Mr. Basketball at the end. It almost made me wish the book were from his perspective, but I guess that w [...]\nI think I felt like I had to read this book just because I\u2019d wanted to months ago but could never find it. I expected a well-written novel of manners, relatively enjoyable but a bit on the cold side. That\u2019s more or less what I got, though the writing wasn\u2019t quite as good as I expected, and it was more of a coming of age story. Though the storytelling is a bit weird; time jumps before tracking back were gratuitous, and the characters felt pretty flat and unreal, obviously constructions in a [...]\nA bunch of self-centered people that tried their hardest to fuck up their offprings lives.\nI am 57% finished with this book on my Kindle, and although it goes against my book-reading and movie-watching philosophy (that if you're more than halfway through it, just keep going until you've finished it whether it's good or not because you've devoted enough time to it already), I am putting it down. I do enjoy the way Espach writes, but the book and I just don't see eye to eye. Maybe it's too provocative, maybe it's just that I have not seriously liked a single charater in this book yet (i [...]\nKatie Maguire says:\nI almost gave this book 5 stars, but I'd like to reserve that rating for books that changed my life. However I loved loved loved this book. I read some of the bad reviews just to see if I was completely off the mark, and it seems like the people who didn't like it took the book way too literally. Reading the first couple chapters I thought, ok, precocious young narrator is smarter than all the adults around her, blah, blah, blah. By about a third of the way through I was making many highlights ( [...]\nEmily Vidal is a teenager growing up in a suburban neighborhood of Connecticut filled with adults who fall somewhat short of being just that - The Adults. Emily's experiences can be viewed as normal by some and completely off the wall by others. She shares her experiences with life as she knows it, the confusion of love, sex and suicide with us as she grows into a young woman.Emily is an interesting character who pulls you into her insane world. She has a way of dropping an unusual line out of t [...]\nDon't get involved with adults, the kids are told. Everything you'll ever learn, they already know. Fourteen-year-old Emily can't help but be involved - her dad's having an affair, there's a baby on the way, her parents are getting divorced, and a neighbour commits suicide on her lawn. What can you do? The kids are busy performing cosmetic surgery in the science lab, and trying to outdrink their teachers at the school dance. Emily begins an affair with her English teacher, for no particular reas [...]\nI was surprised by how much I loved this dark coming of age tale. Emily Vidal witnesses the suicide of a neighbor and begins an affair with an adult. Who the 'adult' is takes on big meaning throughout the novel. Emily and her friends, all on the edge of adulthood, teem with a fury of sexual energy. The suicide is a catalyst of many situations in this novel. Her parents have a monster of a marriage that is slowly dying and creating endings and beginnings in its wake. Emily, lost in the chaos and [...]\nAndi Leigh says:\nI'm not sure where to start with this review. Alison Espach's mastery of the English language is, personally, a source of major envy. She weaves together the story of Emily Marie Vidal from 14 to almost 30, and somehow manages to maintain a uniform cast of characters even when new ones are introduced. Told in thirty something chapters divided into parts, The Adults is a book I will never forget. There's a little Emily in all of us, be it the anxious teenage girl trying to flirt with the boy she [...]\nJust because the NY Times gives a book a stellar review, does not necessarily mean the book is worth the read. I downloaded this want-to-be diamond in the rough onto my NOOK because of such a review. I wanted to see what earns high praise from the Literati. After reading this fictional tell all with TMI (Too Much Information) written all over it, I felt like I needed to be bathed in bleach. Perhaps it's my Christian sensibilities that turned me off from this profanity riddled read or maybe it's [...]\nKaren Bonilla says:\nI guess I must not have much of a sense of humor because, though this book was full of jokes, I didn't think any of them were funny. Most of the humor was obscure and strange to me. The characters in it all sounded the same. It was like someone talking to themselves. It might have been the reason why I didn't really connect or care about the characters. I didn't like this book much but for some reason, I kept reading it. The book just seemed flat and dull to me but I kept hoping that it would ge [...]\nloved the main character, especially early in the story when it was about her childhood. I really identified with her sense of humor. The story was interesting because I really had no idea what the climax would be about. Usually you know the topic of a climax, will they break up or stay together? will they live or die? will they be forgiven or not? this one wasn't very clear. As I got about 3/4 through the story, I kept looking ahead to look for the names of certain characters.\nStick with this one. I almost put it down after 100 pages, because the lists and the narrator's chilly veneer were getting to me. And I almost put it down again when the action moved to Prague, because I felt I was being yanked into another novel. But by the last pages, I was sobbing and feeling dumb for wanting to bail. Espach knows what she's doing, and what she's doing is amazing.\nEmily Pittsley says:\nOkay story, told very pretentiously. Looking at the back cover to see who this author is, I see she is quite young. I'm guessing she tried to \"wow\" us w/her debut novel, but I wasn't that wowed. Tries to be a coming-of-age type book, but done w/a little more provocativeness than was necessary to tell the story.\nI absolutely disliked this book. It was not the writing or how the story was presented. That was all very well done hence the two stars. I am just not a fan of coming of age fiction at all. I could care less who slept with who or what freaking drama was in someone's family. That is real life and between my friends and family I have that all sorts of covered, or Lifetimes movies do. I read this book for a reading challenge so please take my opinion of this book as such, I would have never picked [...]\nTo start off, let me say that I did like this book - I enjoyed reading it, and I am glad that I arbitrarily grabbed it in the library because I was standing in a random aisle and liked the cover.That being said, this book was a bit of a ride. Some of it felt almost Shirley Jackson-ish (think Hangsaman), with a sort of detached otherness placed over the concepts of getting older. I think I got more out of the chapters of the character when she was younger - it felt more defined, and though it als [...]\nA kind of modern-day take on Lolita, The Adults is the story of Emily Vidal, a self-aware teenager growing up in suburban Connecticut. Caught in a time of turmoil that reaches beyond the normal turmoil of adolescence, Emily has a prolonged and somewhat matter-of-fact affair with her English teacher and The Adults subsequently revisits their relationship at several key points over the next ten years. What I found most interesting about this book was how much the relationship between Emily and the [...]\nSomebody's Husband, Somebody's Son: The Story of T...\nA Caricia Essencial\nOutnumbered: Chronicles of a Manhattan Conservativ...\nThe Canadian Founding: John Locke and Parliament\nUma dor silenciosa\nComing to Astoria: An Immigrant's Tale\nRoget's Thesaurus - Definitive Edition [Fully Sear...\nThe Secret to Letting Him Go - The Essential Break...",

I went to play a football game for a team that I have joined and it did not turn out very well. It looked OK until minute 72, since I have netted two goals, but in that minute, I got tackled savagely and I got my ankle smashed. Both the cartilage and ligament are damaged severely and I am not sure if I will be able to play a game of football ever again.

        "raw_content": "Council slammed over homeless law\nAt the February 7 Future Melbourne Committee meeting, the City of Melbourne voted to potentially expand the definition of camping for rough sleepers in the CBD.\nCurrently, it is only illegal to camp in a public place if structures such as tents are used. Under the proposed amendment, local law enforcement officers will be able to remove any unattended items left by homeless people to allegedly protect public safety.\nThe number of people angered by the proposed amendment was seen at the meeting, as it was moved to Swanston Hall to accommodate a larger crowd.\nProtests condemning the proposed amendment occurred prior to the meeting as critics held banners branding it as a \u201cBand-Aid solution\u201d in front of Town Hall.\nThe high emotion continued inside with an outstanding number of submissions being presented to council.\nMembers of the homeless community, former councillors and representatives of organisations who work alongside the homeless and in some cases, alongside the council were united in their stance against the proposed amendment.\nActing CEO of the Council to Homeless Persons Kate Colvin, urged council not to put the homeless in danger by supporting the amended local law.\n\u201cThe proposal to expand the definition of camping will cause considerable harm to people who are homeless. It\u2019s just simply too broad,\u201d she said.\n\u201cThis is meant to be the world\u2019s most liveable city, not the world\u2019s most vulnerable to the people in need,\u201d said homeless person Rebecca Temple.\nManager and principal lawyer of Justice Connect Lucy Adams, started her submission by commending the council on some of the collaborative projects conducted in the past in an effort to combat homelessness. However, she could not hide her aversion for the proposal.\n\u201cIt is in that context of respect and collaboration that we must urge you to pause and not proceed any further with the proposed amendments this evening,\u201d she said.\nA request was made for a deaf interpreter to attend the meeting so that a deaf member of the homeless community could understand, however this was not met and no explanation was provided as to why \u2013 yet another stumble by the council in dealing with the homeless.\nInterestingly, Lord Mayor Robert Doyle who had previously been quite vocal about his ever-changing stance on homelessness, remained relatively quiet throughout the proceedings.\nThe idea for the proposed amendment emerged in late January after chief commissioner of police Graham Ashton, called for a tougher approach on the homeless epidemic.\nHowever, at the FMC meeting, despite there being a heavy police presence ready to act if tensions boiled over, not a single submission was made by a Victoria Police spokesperson. This was noted by Cr Rohan Leppert who voted against the amendment.\n\u201cI would have liked to have seen some written communication from the police as to why they believe their powers are not adequate to deal with this problem already. I know this is a council solution, not a police solution but I still think that would have helped this debate,\u201d he said.\nPerhaps the most embarrassing falter of the night was Tessa Sullivan\u2019s attempt to assure submitters and those in attendance that council was losing sleep over the homeless problem, before likening the danger of rough sleeping to that of terrorism.\n\u201cI want to reiterate that this is about public safety and the very real fear that we have in the world we live in today that it is dangerous to leave unattended items,\u201d she said.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve debated this. We\u2019ve lost sleep over it. I mean, we\u2019re human beings too. We agonise over this. What is happening in our streets is heartbreaking,\u201d she said.\nCr Sullivan\u2019s comments were met with jeers from the audience which felt she was likening possessions of homeless people to pose the same threat as items used in acts of terrorism.\nThe proposed amendment was released for 28 days of public consultation, but not before Cr Leppert successfully persuaded his colleagues to include an extra control on council.\nHis amendment directs management draft a policy which ensures that local law enforcers are accompanied by homelessness support workers when enforcing the law.\nThis is perhaps the amendment\u2019s one saving grace, and a small victory if it is even appropriate to label it as such.\nTags City of Melbourne, Homeless, Local law amendment",

        "title": "NCAA Football EA Sports lives on five years after its demise",
        "raw_content": "Meet the people who keep NCAA Football video game alive\n'A labor of love' keeps NCAA Football video game alive\nThe last edition of NCAA Football was released five years ago. Miller Safrit/ESPN\nJarrod Bullard had just been asked by a reporter what his fianc\u00e9e, Patrice, thinks of this obscure hobby of his, this video game that takes up all of his free time. In a moment of serendipity, she beeped in on the other line.\n\"Hold on,\" he said in a moment he would quickly regret, \"I'll let you get her opinion on it.\"\n\"It's a labor of love. I love the game. I love college football.\" NCAA Football fan Jarrod Bullard\nJust like that, Patrice was off and running, noting how Bullard's level of dedication is akin to an actual relationship. All that time he spends deciphering clips on YouTube and poring over preseason college football magazines? All those numbers he inputs? It takes months -- \"Months!\" she reiterated -- for him to finish.\n\"After all of this and putting in all the information, did you know he doesn't even play the game?\" she said.\nShe can't wrap her head around why a video game -- let alone one that's no longer in production -- demands so much of his attention. She calls him \"crazy and obsessed\" with EA Sports NCAA Football.\nHe just can't (or won't) let it go.\nA 17-year veteran of law enforcement who once walked onto the football team at USF, Bullard works with a group of nine gamers to keep the defunct franchise alive. Each offseason, they go through a painstaking process to input data to build out the updated rosters of all the FBS programs.\nEvery player is created from scratch, down to his name, likeness and hometown. Then there's the empirical method they've devised for assigning player attributes like speed, agility and strength -- those \"little stupid numbers,\" as Bullard's fianc\u00e9e put it.\n\"She'll get up at 3-4 in the morning and go, 'Ah! You're still up working on this game? You're not even playing!'\" Bullard said. \"But I'm editing. Let. Me. Live. I'm living my best life right now.\n\"She thinks all of us are psycho. She calls us nerds.\"\n\"She'll get up at 3-4 in the morning and go, 'Ah! You're still up working on this game? You're not even playing!' But I'm editing. Let. Me. Live. I'm living my best life right now.\" Jarrod Bullard\nShe's not necessarily wrong, if you take the endearing version of the word. They're impassioned. They're dedicated. And, yeah, they've been known to nerd out from time to time.\nBut because of their attachment, they've kept a game millions of people have spent countless hours playing from going extinct.\n\"It's a labor of love,\" Bullard explained. \"I love the game. I love college football.\"\nFive years ago this week, NCAA Football hit the shelves for the final time. Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson graced the cover of the game, which sold roughly 1.5 million copies.\nIt was the end of an era. No longer would its annual release mark the unofficial start of the college football season. A multimillion-dollar franchise adored by fans was discontinued, done in by a lawsuit brought against the NCAA by former UCLA basketball player Ed O'Bannon against that challenged the use of college athletes' names and likenesses without compensation.\nAt least a half-dozen petitions have been created on change.org to resurrect the game. One petitioner wrote that he signed because, \"Without NCAA Football life is dull!\"\nCurrent college players can play the game as themselves only if they upload updated rosters. Joshua L. Jones/Athens Banner-Herald/AP Images\nAnd who could blame him? The \"Road to Glory\" and \"Race for the Heisman\" modes were like catnip for college football enthusiasts. The fight songs, the mascots, the screen-shaking crowd noise captured the essence of the sport. It didn't matter whether you were a fan of Florida or Florida A&M, you had a way of building your own digital dynasty.\nFor gamers like Austin Pope, seeing the franchise shuttered was an especially difficult pill to swallow. It wasn't just that he and his brothers had spent countless hours playing the game growing up. It was that the dream of one day being in the game -- a dream he had long before he ever received his first scholarship offer -- might never come to fruition.\n\"I always thought growing up, I can't wait to be on the game, to have my own rating, to have them actually create me,\" said Pope, now a veteran tight end at Tennessee. \"But then obviously once I got to college they stopped making the game -- of course.\n\"It was just a dream that got crushed.\"\n\"I always thought growing up, I can't wait to be on the game, to have my own rating, to have them actually create me. But then obviously once I got to college they stopped making the game -- of course. It was just a dream that got crushed.\" Tennessee tight end Austin Pope\nPope's teammate, linebacker Quart'e Sapp, felt the same way. He said he was \"disappointed\" when he got the news.\nThen he paused.\n\"But,\" he said, \"to this day some people still have it and update it. I've actually played it the last two years a few times.\"\nHe didn't know who did it or how, but Sapp had seen it with his own eyes: One of his friends had a bootleg version of NCAA Football where he could play as himself.\nAs it turns out, Pope had seen it, too. Last season's Volunteers holder, Parker Henry, had downloaded the updated roster to his console.\n\"It was hilarious,\" Pope said.\nHilarious and apparently not all that unusual. Because players at Ole Miss and Florida said they had used the rosters as well.\nFlorida quarterback Feleipe Franks was amazed when his brother showed him how to download the updated rosters. When he played as himself, however, he had a sinking feeling. His rating was in the low 60s.\n\"I was garbage,\" he said, laughing. \"They had me rated so low I didn't want to play.\"\nFeleipe Franks wasn't happy with his player rating when he first played the game. Kim Klement/USA TODAY Sports\nThe redshirt sophomore is determined to improve upon that rating in future updates.\n\"I need to get them numbers up,\" he said.\nBy late August, Franks will know where he stands. Thanks to Bullard and the rest of the editing team, every player and fan of NCAA Football can keep the game alive for another season.\nLouis Burhans says it takes him on average 25 hours to finish editing a single team. Multiply that by the 30 teams he's in charge of and you're talking about 750 total hours.\nNever mind that Burhans has a full-time job and a wife and two children.\n\"You have to be borderline insane or a superfan -- probably both -- to do this,\" he said. \"What rational person would want to sit down and spend 20-plus hours on one team for free? And then do it over and over and over and over?\"\nHe could cut his time in half, but he's too much of a perfectionist. When he creates a player, the look has to be just right, down to the correct face mask and socks.\nWhen he saw how other gamers were rating players based on feel rather than statistics, he and another member of his team devised a ratings system.\n\"I call him 'A Beautiful Mind,' the way he has the scale set up,\" Bullard said of Burhans, referring to the movie about renowned mathematician John Nash.\nTo get a baseline for each player as a true freshman, they compile a composite rating from several recruiting services. From there, they dig for combine measurements like 40-yard dash times, box jumps and power tosses.\n50 days, 50 voices: What we're looking forward to in 2018\nCollege football starts in 50 days. We asked the nation's top players, coaches and experts what they can't wait to see.\nThe most exciting player for each Top 25 team\nCollege football may still be a few months away, but it's never too early to get to know the players destined for highlight-worthy moments this fall.\nThe teams that could make a surprise CFP run\nEveryone knows Alabama and Clemson will be in the playoff mix. But what other teams could make a surprise run toward a title? It starts with Notre Dame.\n(They don't trust reported times. \"These high school coaches lie so bad,\" Burhans said. \"They have 270-pound linemen running a 4.3.\")\nEach verified combine result then has a corresponding rating. For instance, a receiver with 4.37-second 40-yard dash, a 38-inch vertical and a 40-yard power toss would rate 94 in speed, 88 in jumping and 68 in strength. The scale shifts based on position (i.e., what you think of as strong for a defensive end and a receiver are not the same).\nAfter their freshman season, players then get points based on experience and statistics. A quarterback who completes 70 percent of his passes, for instance, receives a 93 accuracy rating.\nThere are even corresponding ratings for first-, second- and third-team All-Americans. And even that has checks and balances, with votes tallied from five different sources to avoid a random second-team All-American who appears on one ballot but none of the others.\nThe system's not perfect, Burhans said, when it's pointed out to him that Alabama quarterback Jalen Hurts is going to get only a 70 rating in strength despite his reputation as a weight-room warrior.\n\"Yeah, I know,\" he said. \"He's super strong and I've got a dude from Alabama who is always texting me like, 'Dude, this is bullcrap! He's squatting 600 pounds!' But the only reason it's done like that is I redid the whole entire scale and I made it match the recruits that are created in the game. What I did is I simulated five seasons and the highest any quarterback was in five years was a 70 in strength. So it's not my personal feelings. If it were up to me it would probably be around 78. But the game doesn't understand. The game's physics doesn't let it understand if you're a 78 in power and you're only 220 pounds.\"\nYes, physics. Burhans goes that far down the rabbit hole to understand ratings.\nStill, he said he hears complaints from fans all the time.\n\"Alllll the time,\" he said. \"And it's crazy because we do it for free.\"\nThere are times he asks himself why he does all this, but then he starts working, gets in a rhythm and \"it's so freaking fun.\"\n\"The game has been gone for a few years now and people are like, 'I can't believe people are still playing the game,'\" he said.\n\"But in reality it's not really the game from 2013. We're always updating it. It's different. It's the same mechanics, same everything else. But it feels like Christmastime when you get that new roster. It makes the game feel alive and new and fresh.\"\nEd O'Bannon never thought he'd become a villain in the eyes of video game aficionados.\nGranted, he doesn't blame them for feeling that way. He understands the narrative that's out there and he doesn't begrudge anyone their passion. Nevertheless it's an unfortunate feeling for the 45-year-old who still has fond memories of playing old-school consoles like Atari.\n\"We used to ride our bikes all over town to the local hamburger joint,\" O'Bannon recalled. \"They had Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga, Donkey Kong. It wasn't something I wanted to see go. I didn't jump into this lawsuit to get video games removed.\"\nEd O'Bannon's lawsuit against the NCAA led to EA Sports discontinuing the game. AP Photo/Isaac Brekken\nHowever, O'Bannon was a lead plaintiff in a lawsuit against the NCAA and EA Sports over the use of players' names and likenesses. EA Sports never used players' names in its games, but that was about the only thing it didn't replicate.\nWhen former Alabama wideout Tyrone Prothro testified during the trial, he pointed out how his avatar had exactly the same height and weight he was in college. The game even featured the very same wristbands he was known to wear during games, he said.\nO'Bannon said the NCAA cast him as a villain instead of acknowledging that the video game was discontinued because it didn't want to pay athletes. EA Sports, rather than wait for a verdict, reached a $60 million settlement with the players and never produced another version of its college football or basketball games.\n\"There is ample opportunity for them to talk about the real reason why the game isn't being manufactured anymore, but they need a scapegoat,\" O'Bannon said. \"Coming into this, I knew that I was going to have to fall on the sword.\"\nThe first time O'Bannon meets someone, he said \"nine times out of 10\" they ask about video games. \"I was in the gym the other day and a guy looked at me and said, 'Hey, I know who you are, you're the one that got the games taken away,'\" he said. \"He laughed about it. When I say my name, I expect someone to say that. If that's what you recognize me for, I refuse to try and change your mind or justify my actions.\"\nCurrent players are torn, however. Making money would have been great, but as Tennessee linebacker Sapp pointed out, seeing themselves in the game was worth something, too.\n\"It wasn't something I wanted to see go. I didn't jump into this lawsuit to get video games removed.\" Ed O'Bannon\n\"It's a lot of football players, it's too many to distribute funds,\" he said. \"And I feel like a lot of the guys would honestly just say, 'Yeah, I'd like to be in the game.' That's like the game.\"\nIn the meantime, hope for its return appears slim. There are those within EA Sports who would love to produce the franchise again, but that would require the NCAA to allow players to be paid and that's just not a reality at this time.\nBen Haumiller, who worked on the game from 2005 to 2014 and then transferred over to the Madden team, hears from fans constantly about it. At the NFL combine last year, in the middle of doing facial scans for all the rookies, he said former Michigan tight end Jake Butt asked him, \"Hey, when is NCAA coming back?\" This year, former Louisville quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson pulled him aside.\n\"This is the first class that was high school seniors when 'NCAA 14' came out and never had anyone eligible to be [in the game],\" Haumiller said. \"He's like, 'Man, I would have been on the cover.' He mentioned it was one of his dreams to be on the cover.\"\nHaumiller, who is a gamer at heart, added: \"It's sweet and painful to talk about.\"\nStill, he's buoyed by the game's enduring popularity and those who update it year after year.\n\"It's crazy the detail that they've gone into to try to figure out a game that's five years old and how they can make it still, essentially, as alive as it can be,\" he said. \"We, on our side of the house, can have nothing to do with that. But I can admire it from afar. That's the group of people I absolutely love. They put their time and work and investment into it for their own pure joy.\"\nAll it takes is about $20 to buy a copy of the game's final release online these days. Then, with a little digging, you can download the updated rosters for free and play a version that at least feels like 2018 with familiar stars like Houston defensive lineman Ed Oliver and Stanford running back Bryce Love (both projected 99 ratings) or Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley (projected 93). There's even a hack that will rig the game to create a four-team playoff.\nIt might not be the real thing, but it's awfully close.\nESPN reporter Myron Medcalf contributed to this report.",

        "raw_content": "The Basics of Flat Track Roller Derby\nPivot Helmet Cover Jammer Helmet Cover\nRoller derby takes place on a flat track with an inside circumference of 148.5 ft and an outside circumference of 236.5 ft. The game, played in two 30 minute periods, is a series of races between two teams of five players \u2013 three Blockers, one Pivot and one Jammer (scorer). Helmet covers, called panties, differentiate the positions. Jammers wear stars while Pivots wear stripes. No covers are used by the Blockers.\nThe game consists of the 2 teams competing in a series of counter clockwise \u2019jams\u2019: races which can last up to 2 minutes each. At the start of each jam, the blockers and pivots are positioned between 2 lines on the track, the pivot line and the jammer line. The jammers are behind the jammer line and play begins with a whistle.\ntrack to score points. A jammer scores points by legally passing opposing players while upright, inbounds and not committing a penalty. The Pivots act like the pace car in a NASCAR race and control the speed of the pack while also acting as a blocker.\nThe Pivots and Blockers must remain in a pack and are not permitted to stray more than 20 feet from the \u2018pack\u2019, which consists of the most players from both teams. If a Pivot or Blocker falls or otherwise becomes separated, she is out of play and cannot block or assist the Jammers until she rejoins the pack.\nAs a jammer fully passes opposing players in the pack, a point is awarded for each one. Points are also given for any opposing player in the penalty box and any player out of bounds for gear or injury issues. The Lead Jammer is allowed to call off the jam (tapping her hips with her hands twice as a signal) to prevent the opposing jammer from scoring or conserve time for her team.\nThe game is an exciting blend of speed, skill, brains and brawn. The rules can be found at rules.wftda.com and official hand signals can be found here.\nTo receive points, Jammers must pass opponents while UPRIGHT, in bounds and without committing a penalty.\nIf an opposing player passes the Jammer, no points are scored when the Jammer repasses that player.\nPoints are not scored for passing an opposing Jammer unless she is being lapped.\nBlocking is permitted using body parts above the mid-thigh, excluding forearms, hands and head. Blocks from behind are not permitted.\nA player cannot block with extended arms or elbows.\nIf a player commits an infraction, such as an illegal block or unsportsmanlike conduct, penalties are awarded. A penalty requires the player to serve 30 SECONDS in the penalty box.\nQuad skates, helmets, mouth guards, wrist guards, elbow pads and knee pads are required.\nThe History of Roller Derby\nIn 1935, Chicago promoter Leo Seltzer invented a spectacle called roller derby. The first event, held on August 13, 1935 in the Chicago Coliseum, was a simulation of a cross-country roller skating race. Billed as The Transcontinental Roller Derby, it featured teams of one man and one woman who took turns skating 57,000 laps, or the equivalent of a 4,000-mile cross-country race. Roller derby was an instant success, drawing 20,000 spectators in the first week alone.\nOccasionally, massive collisions and crashes occurred. Like any great promoter, Seltzer quickly realized this was the most exciting part and tweaked his game to maximize the carnage. Two teams of five skaters now circled the track, with each team sending out a \u2018jammer\u2019 to skate around and lap members of the opposing team. It became a full-contact physical sport, with elbows, body-checks and fights galore. The fans loved it and Seltzer soon took his show on the road.\nThe sport continued to gain popularity and with the 1950\u2032s introduction of a new medium called television, roller derby catapulted into a national phenomenon. It drew thousands of fans and made legends out of its competitors.\nJerry Seltzer, Leo\u2019s son, moved the family operation to the San Francisco area in 1958. The sport remained popular through the 1960s but waned in popularity in the 1970\u2032s. A combination of spiraling costs and an uncertain economy forced the younger Seltzer to shut down his roller derby business in 1973.\nThanks to a group of industrious and spirited women in Austin, TX, roller derby was reborn in 2001 and has been gathering speed ever since. This new generation of roller derby pays homage to its theatrical roots but shifts the focus to pure, unscripted, competitive athletics coupled with a DIY attitude and fearless female empowerment. Contemporary flat track roller derby follows the rules and regulations of the Women\u2019s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) and is a fast-paced, hard-hitting sport that requires genuine athleticism, strategy, and dedication. Roller Girls may be theatrical and highly individual, but first and foremost they are athletes and team players. Today there are more than 400 all-female flat track roller derby leagues all over the globe, in both small towns and major cities.",

        "raw_content": "Present: Peter Gray; Tim Hanlon; Frances L. Higgins, Nancy Pines; Chris Richardson; Greg White; 3 Section 5 residents\nNancy moved that the December 11, 2012, Council minutes be approved as amended; Greg seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.\nEach Council member received a copy of the settlement between Section 5 and Pepco concerning the trimming of Section 5 trees. This agreement was reached after representatives from Pepco and Section 5 had a hearing before the Public Service Commission. Pepco's lawyer stated in the agreement that Section 5's arborist should meet certain qualifications as an arborist. The manager contacted Lew Bloch, a State licensed arborist, asked if these qualifications were onerous. He said that they were not. The manager contacted the Pepco lawyer and said that the agreement should state that Pepco's arborist should meet the same qualifications. The Pepco lawyer agreed with this addition.\nPeter said that the word \u201cto\u201d in #3 line 2 should be removed and that the date on the last page should be made current. Tim said that in paragraph 4 line 2 the word \u201cplan\u201d should be added after the word management and also he asked why the word \u201cimmediately\u201d was underlined. The manager will contact Pepco's lawyer and ask about the underlining and the other 2 changes. Once these changes have been incorporated, the manager will send a copy of this agreement to the residents with the February Council meeting agenda flyer.\nThe manager has contacted Kathleen Boucher, the County's contact for the police contract, and she has not as yet responded. Peter asked if the Town of Kensington and Chevy Chase View plan to renew their contracts with the County for supplemental police patrols. The manager will call the two towns. There was some discussion about the cost of the police patrols and whether the town should continue with these patrols in 2013-14.\nThe Council agreed to continue to spend the money in the budget for supplemental police patrols for the current fiscal year 2012-2013.\nThe manager contacted County Police Captain David Falcinelli about the advisability of installing cross walks and/or stop bars at intersections. The Captain said that these are effective safety measures initially; however, after they have been in effect for some time, motorists tend to ignore them. She also contacted the Village Police Chief, John Fitzgerald. He also said that stop bars or cross walks are effective initially but like most safety measures the effectiveness decreases with time.\nThere was some discussion about the cost of installing crosswalks.\nThe Council asked the manager to obtain a price for installing crosswalks at the intersections of each of the following streets with Connecticut Ave: Thornapple St., Underwood St., Williams Ln., and Woodbine St. and also where these streets intersect with Brookville Rd. She will also get a price for installing a cross walk at the intersection of Leland St. and Connecticut Ave. It was suggested by a resident that a crosswalk be installed at the intersection of Leland Ct. and Leland St. The manager will contact a traffic engineer regarding this installation. The manager will report back to the Council at the February Council meeting.\nTim provided each Council member a copy of the revenues and expenditures for the current fiscal year 2012-2013 to date. He said that each expenditure item is within the budget with the exception of landscaping. This item has exceeded the budget by about a $1,100. Several residents have asked the Council to add liriope plants to their existing liriope beds. The cost of these additional plants has caused the landscaping expenditure item to exceed the budget.\nCraig Pernick has contacted the Council and asked if it would make a contribution to the B-CC Rescue Squad if the rescue squad conducted a CPR course for Section 5 residents at no charge. There was some discussion about contacting other abutting municipalities and asking if their residents might be interested in participating in such an endeavor.\nGreg will contact Craig about arranging such a CPR course and get back to the Council. The manager will contact the other munies about participating in the CPR course.\nThe Village of Chevy Chase conducts a Red Cross Baby Sitter's course in their town hall at a cost of $85, paid by the participant. The manager asked the Council if it was interested in conducting a similar course for Section 5 teenagers. The Council will consider this proposal at the Feb. meeting.\nThe manager was able to get the County to repair the damaged storm drain at the corner of Glendale Rd. and Woodbine St.\nSeveral Williams Ln. residents have contacted the manager about the number of poles which do not have lamps attached on Williams Ln. They said that these dark areas cause residents to have some concerns about safety. The manager reported to the Council the number of poles in Section 5 which do not have a lamp attached. Most of these poles are on Williams Ln.\nThe manager will write a letter to the residents to be sent with the February agenda flyer. This letter will contain the addresses on Williams Lane where there is a pole without a lamp and the fact that the Council is considering the installation of a lamp on each of these poles.\nRonald Bolt, a County attorney, said that he plans to leave the law firm of Stein, Sperill. Section 5 has engaged Mr. Bolt in some of Section 5's legal matters and thus he wants to know if he should take Section 5's records with him when he leaves the firm. There was some discussion.\nThe Council agreed that Mr. Bolt should take Section 5's records with him when he leaves.\nTim, Nancy, and Greg will be up for reelection in April 2013. They must decide if they will run for reelection by Feb 21.\nThe date for the scheduled Section 5 election for 2013 is April 2; however, this conflicts with the last day of Passover.\nThe Council agreed to change the date from April 2, 2013 to April 9, 2013.\nPeter adjourned the meeting. The next Council meeting will be Tuesday, February 12, 2013, at the Village Hall at 5906 Connecticut Ave., at 7:30 PM. The Village Hall has handicap access. Everyone is welcome.",

They are popular among friends, active at work and have a deft sense of humour.\nThe CVBF members were honoured to take part in their first Vietnamese Lunar New Year celebration held annually at the Edmonton City Hall. It was a wonderful opportunity for the Vietnamese community and organizations to be introduced to our Foundation. The many representatives from these businesses and organizations were so kind and welcoming to us.\nUniversity students from the UofA Vietnamese Students\u2019 Association volunteered their time to help us out. Susan did a fabulous job organizing a craft table for the multitude of children who came for the festive games and arts & crafts. Team members Linh, Nhung, Rebecca and Thelicia were also on hand to help. It was a delight to see how happy the children were to get treats after their creative work. The afternoon was filled with musical and cultural dance performances.\nWe were so moved to be a part of such a beautiful and joyous event.

        "raw_content": "Code Black (2015) - TV Show\nCode Black is a heart-pounding medical drama that takes place in the busiest, most notorious ER in the nation, where the staggering influx of patients can outweigh the limited resources available to the extraordinary doctors and nurses whose job is to treat them all - creating a condition known as Code Black. At the heart of the ER's controlled chaos is Residency Director Dr. Leanne Rorish, renowned for successfully performing high-risk procedures in Center Stage, the trauma area reserved for the most critical cases. Her four new first-year residents are Christa Lorenson, Malaya Pineda, Mario Savetti and Angus Leighton. Leanne's confidante, Jesse Sallander, is an amiable seen-it-all senior nurse who manages the residents. Also working in the ER is Dr. Neal Hudson, an excellent physician who sometimes disagrees with Leanne's \"cowboy\" approach, and Dr. Rollie Guthrie, the energetic, longest-serving attending. In Center Stage, life is measured in seconds, and these heroic doctors and nurses operate with speed and skill within an overwhelmed system to treat the crowds of people who are often there for one of two reasons: to die or to receive a life-saving miracle.\nThis show is based on the award-winning documentary of the same name. This medical drama follows the staff in an extremely busy emergency room as they cope with a staggering amount of patients, which oftentimes outweighs the hospital's resources, resulting in a code black.\nCode Black Airs: Wednesday\nCode Black Status: Ended\nCODE BLACK - General Information\nCODE BLACK - Season 1 -- 18 Episodes\n1x2 -- Oct 07, 2015 -- We Plug Holes\n1x3 -- Oct 14, 2015 -- Pre-Existing Conditions\n1x4 -- Oct 21, 2015 -- Sometimes It's a Zebra\n1x5 -- Oct 28, 2015 -- Doctors with Borders\n1x6 -- Nov 04, 2015 -- In Extremis\n1x7 -- Nov 11, 2015 -- Buen \u00c1rbol\n1x8 -- Nov 18, 2015 -- You Are the Heart\n1x9 -- Nov 25, 2015 -- The Son Rises\n1x10 -- Dec 02, 2015 -- Cardiac Support\n1x11 -- Dec 09, 2015 -- Black Tag\n1x12 -- Jan 13, 2016 -- The Fog of War\n1x13 -- Jan 20, 2016 -- First Date\n1x14 -- Jan 27, 2016 -- The Fifth Stage\n1x15 -- Feb 03, 2016 -- Diagnosis of Exclusion\n1x16 -- Feb 10, 2016 -- Hail Mary\n1x17 -- Feb 17, 2016 -- Love Hurts\n1x18 -- Feb 24, 2016 -- Blood Sport\n2x1 -- Sep 28, 2016 -- Second Year\n2x2 -- Oct 05, 2016 -- Life and Limb\n2x3 -- Oct 12, 2016 -- Corporeal Form\n2x4 -- Oct 26, 2016 -- Demons and Angels\n2x5 -- Nov 02, 2016 -- Landslide\n2x6 -- Nov 09, 2016 -- Hero Complex\n2x7 -- Nov 16, 2016 -- What Lies Beneath\n2x8 -- Nov 23, 2016 -- 1.0 Bodies\n2x9 -- Nov 30, 2016 -- Sleight of Hand\n2x10 -- Dec 07, 2016 -- Ave Maria\n2x11 -- Dec 21, 2016 -- Exodus\n2x12 -- Jan 04, 2017 -- One in a Million\n2x15 -- Feb 01, 2017 -- The Devil's Workshop\n2x16 -- Feb 08, 2017 -- Fallen Angels\n3x1 -- Apr 25, 2018 -- Third Year\n3x2 -- May 02, 2018 -- Better Angels\n3x3 -- May 09, 2018 -- La Familia\n3x4 -- May 16, 2018 -- The Same as Air\n3x5 -- May 30, 2018 -- Cabin Pressure\n3x6 -- May 30, 2018 -- Hell's Heart\n3x7 -- Jun 06, 2018 -- Step Up\n3x8 -- Jun 13, 2018 -- Home Stays Home\n3x9 -- Jun 20, 2018 -- Only Human\n3x10 -- Jun 27, 2018 -- Change of Heart\n3x11 -- Jul 04, 2018 -- One of Our Own\n3x12 -- Jul 11, 2018 -- As Night Comes and I'm Breathing\n3x13 -- Jul 18, 2018 -- The Business of Saving Lives\nAdditional CODE BLACK Information\nCode Black on IMDb\nCode Black on TVmaze\nCode Black Cast\n................ as CT Waiting Room Patient\n............ as Marshall\n.............. as General Jefferson Cohn 1 episode, 2018\nJoey Honsa\n............ as Axel\n................ as Vascular Doctor\n............... as Pete Delaney\n............ as Desk Secretary\n............... as Nancy Fields\n................ as Javi Gomez\n............. as Harold 1 episode, 2018\n................... as Ethan Willis\n............... as Sally Kessler\n........... as Mr. Hazelton\n.............. as Carla Niven\n..... as David Jacobs\n........... as Officer V.

As the head of the research and development department, Ted Crisp (Jay Harrington) loves every day on the job. He loves his boss, Veronica (Portia de Rossi); loves working with colleagues Lem (Malcolm Barrett), Phil (Jonathan Slavin) and Linda (Andrea Anders); and loves turning the impossible into the plausible. But with his job come hazy ethical boundaries. As Ted always says: \"Work's not a question of right or wrong. It's only about success or failure.\" Luckily for Ted, he has his daughter Rose (Isabella Acres) to keep him in line, but it's not easy being a single dad and taking ideas one could only dream of and making them a reality.\nIn a science-based company, a manager tries to keep control of his scientists while being pressured by his shrewd boss.\nBetter Off Ted Airs: Tuesday\nBetter Off Ted Status: Ended\nBETTER OFF TED - General Information\nBETTER OFF TED - Season 1 -- 13 Episodes\n1x2 -- Mar 25, 2009 -- Heroes\n1x3 -- Apr 01, 2009 -- Through Rose Colored HAZMAT Suits\n1x4 -- Apr 08, 2009 -- Racial Sensitivity\n1x5 -- Apr 15, 2009 -- Win Some, Dose Some\n1x6 -- Apr 22, 2009 -- Goodbye Mr. Chips\n1x7 -- May 05, 2009 -- Get Happy\n1x8 -- Jun 23, 2009 -- You Are the Boss of Me\n1x9 -- Jun 30, 2009 -- Bioshuffle\n1x10 -- Jul 14, 2009 -- Trust and Consequences\n1x11 -- Jul 21, 2009 -- Father, Can You Hair Me?\n1x12 -- Aug 11, 2009 -- Jabberwocky\n1x13 -- Aug 11, 2009 -- Secrets and Lives\n2x1 -- Dec 08, 2009 -- Love Blurts\n2x2 -- Dec 15, 2009 -- The Lawyer, the Lemur and the Little Listener\n2x3 -- Dec 22, 2009 -- Battle of the Bulbs\n2x4 -- Dec 29, 2009 -- It's Nothing Business, It's Just Personal\n2x5 -- Jan 01, 2010 -- The Great Repression\n2x6 -- Jan 05, 2010 -- Beating a Dead Workforce\n2x7 -- Jan 05, 2010 -- Change We Can't Believe In\n2x8 -- Jan 12, 2010 -- The Impertence of Communicationizing\n2x9 -- Jan 12, 2010 -- The Long and Winding High Road\n2x10 -- Jan 19, 2010 -- Lust in Translation\n2x11 -- Jan 26, 2010 -- Mess of a Salesman\n2x12 -- Feb 02, 2010 -- It's My Party and I'll Lie If I Want To\n2x13 -- Feb 09, 2010 -- Swag the Dog\nAdditional BETTER OFF TED Information\nBetter Off Ted on IMDb\nBetter Off Ted on TVmaze\n......... as Scientist #2\n.......... as Walter Palmer\n........ as Pete\n...... as Danielle\n........... as Rick\n....... as Stella\n........ as Herald\n......... as Extraction Guy #1\n.......... as Mr. Campbell\n............ as Bert Hutchens\n...... as Bert\n.......... as Mr. Krebs\n........... as Mr. Page\n.......... as Elijah Palmer\n................ as Screaming Office Worker\n......... as Mrs. Boudreaux\n... as Water Guy\n.......... as Male Lawyer\n........ as The Receptionist\n......... as Arthur Wells\n........ as Dr. Rosenbaum\n....... as Janet\n.......... as Kathleen\n........ as Phil Myman\n....... as Hans\n......... as Ted Crisp\n........ as Lem Hewitt\n......... as Clark\n............ as Perry\n.......... as Patricia\n....... as Wallace\n.......... as Nadine Webson\n......... as General McMillan\n......... as Gordon Jenkins\n...... as Manny\n............ as Executive #1\n.......... as Susan\n............ as Laura Ortiz\n........ as Veronica Palmer\n............ as Alvin\n............ as Dr. Bhamba\n.............. as Asian Man\n..... as Sarah\n.... as Jeffrey Bouchard\n........ as Lonnie\n......... as Rose Crisp\n...... as Don\n........... as Brett\n.......... as Hal\n............ as Mordor\n...... as Sabrina\n....... as Billy\n............. as Stu\n........ as Carlos\nJoel Zaldivar\n.......... as Justin Zwordling\n........ as Arresting officer\n......... as Miniature Golf Patron\n.......... as Linda Zwordling\n......... as Kristi\n......... as Erica\n..... as Hannah\nErskine Bonilla\n... as Greta\n. as Jerry\n......... as Steve\n....... as Mr. Crisp\n...... as Mark\n....... as Kathy\n......... as Coffee Cart Guy\nKaelyn Raye\nJonna Kae Volz\n......... as Verionica's Secretary\nT.C.

        "raw_content": "The Assessor\u00b4s Department is responsible for the local administration of our state property tax system. The Assessor's duties fall within the framework of Washington State Law. Any changes to the current assessment and property tax calculation procedure must be initiated by our voters or state legislators.\nThe department\u00b4s primary responsibility is to appraise all taxable real and personal property within Clallam County as accurately and fairly as the law allows. We are constantly looking for ways to improve the way we do our job.\nThe assessment process plays an important role in local government. Equitable assessments assure property owners that they are paying their fair share of the costs of operating schools and libraries, providing police and fire protection, road construction and maintenance, water, sanitation, and other basic public services. The Assessor does not establish the dollar amount of taxes...the values determined by the Assessor are estimates of market value...they are not taxes. Other agencies of state and local government carry on this function.\nThe Assessor's office is not limited to setting property values alone. In addition to the over forty-eight thousand appraisal reports maintained on properties, a detailed series of maps showing all properties within the county is maintained. Each time a parcel of property is sold or divided or a new plat is filed, the transaction is shown on our records. The assessment roll of Clallam County is maintained by our office, along with lists of ownership, legal and building descriptions, tax code area, location, and the assessed valuation for all taxable property within the county.\nThe Clallam County Assessor's Office administers a variety of tax relief and exemption programs, such as destroyed property claims, home improvement exemptions, open space/current use classification, and exemption and deferral programs for limited income senior citizens and disabled persons.\nThe entire assessor's staff is conscientious about placing a fair assessed value on your property. We will provide you with maps and records of sales of similar properties.",

        "raw_content": "Steve Williams 2018 Super Comp World Champion\nSteve Williams started his Championship season off relatively slow, with his first 3 events gaining only 1 round win. Starting the year out in Pomona, CA for a national event where he would fall in rd2, then heading over to Las Vegas, NV like everyone from d7 usually does for another national then his 1st divisional event of the year where he would not get out of rd1, resulting in only 100 points in his first 3 events (all would eventually get thrown away at the end of the year). Williams would go onto the Fontana divisional towards the end of May where he would turn on only a pair of win lights for a 50 point addition before taking 2 months off, again not the way a championship season is usually started.\nBeginning to find some rhythm throughout the next couple events, Williams elected to go to the double event at Sonoma Raceway where he would reach his 1st final round of the year and collect his only win on the year. Gaining him 105 points at his first divisional, then unfortunately getting knocked out in the 1st round of competition at the national event for another throw away 30. Ending his 2 week, 3 race jaunt was in Seattle, WA for the end of the western swing where Williams would find himself in his 2nd final of the season but fall short, gaining a crucial 84 points.\nNow only half way through Williams season and well over half way through the NHRA season, he was up to 339 points with only 7 events, 3 of which being divisionals. Taking a look at the schedule, he took a shot and would pull through the gate at 2 more sets of doubles, Salt Lake City, UT and Great Bend, KS, looking for the \u201cwhat if\u201d scenario. Both races went relatively similar by picking up about 100 points at each track, landing him in the top 10 with a good shot at the crown because of the 1st and 2nd rounds he could better going forward. With only 4 races total left in the year, Williams would need to attend 75% of them to really make a run at it and he capitalized on the opportunity with a runner-up 94 point score in Dallas, TX the first weekend in October.\nAfter about 3 weeks off there would be only 4-5 drivers left in the championship chase and it would come down to the wire. Williams was determined to end the year strong and solidify the championship as he headed over to Vegas 2 for yet another national/divisional to fulfill his allotted point claimers. Starting with a rd4 loss, he ended the trip on a high note with a semi-final finish at the divisional event and due to high car counts, received 93 points and launch him into the #1 spot with 620. The season finale in Pomona, CA had 3 drivers fighting for the top spot, after Williams bowed out in rd1 and Don Nichols (your eventual #2) bowed out in rd2, it left Mark Grame who had to get to the final round to take over the lead by 1 point. Round by round Grame kept turning on the win lights with Williams eagerly watching on, as it came down to rd5 and how the ladder played out, the bye to the final was on his side and if he turned on the win light he would be the Champion. And as you can tell by the title of the article Mark Grame lost a close race to Tony Helms and would have to settle for the #4 spot, handing the #1 scoop over to Steve Williams with 620 final points.\nPhotos By \u2013 Auto Imagery\nSportsman News No Comments \u00bb\n\u00ab Brian McClanahan Completes his Families Championship Trio (Previous News)\n(Next News) This Is Bracket Racing Elite \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Many businesses have to run large vehicles like trucks for company functions and many other daily operations. There are particular concerns and requirements which might be significant if you are taking these cars under consideration. The first and the most significant thing is commercial truck insurance. It is truly needed for the company and the process to get one is similar to any automobile insurance. Nevertheless, it could be a little complex as compared to other types of insurance. You are able to get your commercial truck insurance from any insurance company. You can even hire an agent if you feel that you don\u2019t desire to finish all the procedures on your own. However, you must consider or take into account certain variables which are important while applying for insurance. Let\u2019s see the essential info and factors that\u2019ll be necessary while trying to get the necessary process.\nYou have to have specific technical information regarding the truck. Note down information like version number, mileage and year of production of the vehicle. Additionally take down the vehicle number and id. You need to consider all these things before applying for the insurance. It is possible to locate these details in areas like the dash or near the windshield. Another thing that must be contemplated is the businesses that offer commercial insurance for vehicles. It truly is accurate that you will find many insurance companies in the market. Nevertheless, you have to bear in mind that the insurance companies usually do not offer commercial insurance. So, that is something that you will need to research around to see which businesses offer this sort of insurance before taking the following step.\nYou can find many online companies that also offer great rates and insurance policies. However, you have to be attentive while choosing for these kinds of insurance because it truly is more complex as opposed to other types of vehicle insurance. You need to analyze the website of the business and read the terms and conditions very carefully. Occasionally you mightn\u2019t get all the info through the business web site and hence, you are going to have to contact them in case you might have any query or want additional information. If you want you can contact many firms and ask them for their quotations and coverages. You\u2019ll be able to then later decide which firm suits you the best and is more favorable for you. After you determine which business is the greatest it is possible to proceed with the application procedure. The sales broker of the business will lead you through the complete process. It\u2019s possible for you to advise the broker about your business background and what kind of coverage is needed. The most significant thing is budget. You\u2019ll also need to keep your budget in mind before opting for any coverage. Distinct policies supply various sorts of coverage and have different rates and prices. You should choose the best plan yourself. Consequently, this was some crucial information regarding commercial truck insurance and some of the factors that need to be considered before picking one.\nTom Hernan at Bramhall + Hitchen Finance\nKathleen Van Wieringen \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent\nABZ Finance Inc\nDarrell Tudela Agency \u2013 State Farm\nPhil Drick \u2013 State Farm Finance Agent\nJohn Wills Agency \u2013 State Farm",

And I think the configurations for developers are very reasonable.\"\nSony's Neo and Microsoft's Project Scorpio will be forwards-compatible, capable of playing games you already own. This is one of the most attractive elements of the new hardware, in Sweeney's eyes.\n\"The idea of throwing everything out and doing everything from scratch every seven years is completely crazy\" -- Sweeney\n\"The console industry will grow and sustain its user base much better if it doesn't have to reset its user base to zero every seven years,\" he said. \"The idea of throwing everything out and doing everything from scratch every seven years is completely crazy. And everything Epic's done with our new game development approach, involving these online games we're going to maintain over time, it's about building games where we don't have to reset our user base to zero when we want to add new features.\"\nNeo, which is only a codename, is rumored to launch this year. Sony announced the system in the days before E3, but it didn't talk about or show off the console at the event. Another report said this system, along with a slimmed-down PS4, could be announced in September.\nAs for Microsoft's Scorpio, this system will go on sale in holiday 2017. Microsoft is calling it the \"most powerful console ever made.\"\nBoth systems are going to support 4K, and Sweeney said \"there's value to 4K,\" and mentioned that the prices for 4K TV sets are coming down. Microsoft has said you will need a 4K TV to make the most of Scorpio (though supporting 4K is not required for developers).\nSweeney added that he expects every new game for Neo and Scorpio to offer about 3X or better graphics quality than existing PS4 and Xbox One games. \"Whether they do it through higher resolution or prettier pixels is a decision for each game, and different games will exploit it in different ways,\" he explained.\nThe full interview is chock-full of more quotes and insight. Go read it here.\nWhat do you make of what we know so far about Neo and Scorpio? Let us know in the comments below.",

In those circumstances, we require those third parties to treat your private information with the same degree of confidentiality that we do. In some instances, the third-party service provider may collect information directly from you. In these cases, you will be notified of the involvement of the service provider, and all additional information you provide them and their additional uses will be strictly up to you. If you provide additional information to a service provider directly, the service provider's use of your personal information is governed by its applicable privacy policy.\nWe may also share information about you if we believe that disclosure is required under law.

The performance results have not been compiled, reviewed or audited by an independent accountant. Results for the current year are based on the internal books and records of each fund and are subject to adjustment when that fund\u2019s financial statements for the current year are audited.\nThe Firm believes that the performance shown in the Site was generated with an investment philosophy and methodology with respect to each fund, similar to that described in that fund\u2019s Confidential Offering Circular or Private Offering Memorandum and that the Firm would expect to use in the future for that fund. Future investments, however, will be made under different economic conditions and in different securities and may be made using different investment strategies than were used during the times discussed herein.

        "raw_content": "Ghana, Cuba to join forces to fight malaria\nWritten by GNA\nVice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has reiterated government\u2019s commitment to eradicate malaria and other mosquito-transmitted diseases in the country. He said malaria had caused significant number of deaths in Ghana and cost the African Continent billions of dollars.\nVice President Bawumia said this when a high-powered Cuban delegation led by Mrs Mercedes Lopez Acea, the Vice President of the Council of State of Cuba, called on him at the Flagstaff House in Accra, on Monday.\nMrs Acea was accompanied by Mrs Ana Teresita Gonzalez, the Deputy Cuban Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr Mohammad Habibu Tijani, Ghana\u2019s Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration and Ambassador Napoleon Abdulai, Ghana\u2019s Ambassador to Cuba.\nVice President Bawumia said the Government of Ghana would renew discussions with the Cuban Government for the establishment of a Biolarvicide factory at Savelugu in the Northern Region.\nThe Biolarvicide production factory would produce insecticides to destroy the larvae of a mosquito, and help control pests and mosquito transmitted diseases in Ghana and the West African Sub-region.\nStatistics from the Ghana Health Service showed that, a child dies every 30 seconds from malaria and accounts for about 40 per cent of public health expenditures in endemic countries.\nVice President Bawumia said deaths from malaria were avoidable and wanted that facility to help eradicate the disease, not just in Ghana, but the whole of the West Africa sub region. \u201cThe malaria programme in Savelugu in the northern Ghana is an area that Ghana wants to see the proposals come to fruition for the malaria control programme,\u201d he said.\nVice President Bawumia acknowledged the longstanding relations between the two countries and emphasised Ghana\u2019s appreciation to the Government of Cuba for supporting various sectors of the Ghanaian society.\nHe mentioned the Cuban Medical Brigade Assistance Programme, which had witnessed Cuban medical doctors and other health personnel undertaking voluntary work in remote areas of the country.\nThe Vice President noted that, more than 3,000 Ghanaian students had also benefitted from training in Cuba, with many of them contributing their quota to national development. Vice President Bawumia, who is the Head of the Economic Management Team, expressed government\u2019s commitment to welcome the Cuban business community to Ghana, to add value to the country\u2019s raw resources.\n\u201cWe know that the Cuban business community has expressed interest in Ghana\u2019s cocoa beans. We believe that if Ghana and Cuba cooperate, we can add value to Ghana\u2019s cocoa sector,\u201d he stated. Mrs Acea, on her part, lauded Ghana\u2019s leading role in ensuring peace and stability in the West African Sub-region, and expressed her country\u2019s commitment to expand and deepen the relationship for their mutual benefit.\n\u201cWe\u2019re proud that we have trained over 3,000 Ghanaian students, who are now playing key roles in Ghana\u2019s development. \u201cWe\u2019re also very proud of the achievements of the Cuban Medical Brigade, some of whom have been in Ghana for over 15 years. I believe we can explore other areas of mutual benefit,\u201d Mrs Acea stated.\nApart from malaria, mosquitoes can cause the following ailments: dengue, West Nile virus, chikungunya, yellow fever, filariasis, tularemia, dirofilariasis, Japanese encephalitis, Saint Louis encephalitis, Western equine encephalitis, Eastern equine encephalitis, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, Ross River fever, Barmah Forest fever, among others.\nMore in this category: \u00ab Internet is latest arena for U.S. intervention in Cuba Cuba rejects OAS remarks on Cuba's democratic system \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "In big-city Texas, Dallas-Fort Worth workers face greatest job threat from robots\nMachines substitute for tasks, not jobs. Photo by vm/Getty Images\nAmong the four major metro areas in Texas, robotic labor poses the biggest danger to workers in Dallas-Fort Worth, according to a new study from the Brookings Institution\u2019s Metropolitan Policy Program.\nThe study finds that 46.5 percent of workplace tasks are susceptible to automation among all occupations in DFW. Authors of the study are quick to point out that this doesn\u2019t mean human workers will be entirely replaced by robots. Rather, they say, it means at least some of the humans\u2019 tasks could be automated.\n\u201cWhile this report concludes that the future may not be as dystopian as the most dire voices claim, plenty of people and places will be affected by automation, and much will need to be done to mitigate the coming disruptions,\u201d the authors write.\nOverall, DFW ranks 29th among the country\u2019s 100 biggest metro areas for potential disruption by automation. Across the country, jobs that could encounter the most interference from automation include food preparation worker, payroll clerk, and commuter network support specialist, according to the report.\n\u201cMachines substitute for tasks, not jobs. A job is a collection of tasks,\u201d the report says. \u201cSome of those tasks are best done by humans, others by machines. Even under the most aggressive scenarios of technological advancement, it is unlikely that machines will be able to substitute for all tasks in any one occupation.\u201d\nElsewhere in Texas:\nHouston ranks 31st among the country\u2019s 100 biggest metros, with 46.3 percent of work tasks susceptible to automation.\nSan Antonio ranks 41st among the country\u2019s 100 biggest metros, with 46 percent of work tasks susceptible to automation.\nAustin ranks 78th among the country\u2019s 100 biggest metros, with 44.3 percent of work tasks susceptible to automation.\nAccording to CityLab, the Brookings report shows places where energy jobs are prevalent, such as Houston, will get through the automation period \u201crelatively unscathed,\u201d as will college towns and state capitals like Austin.\nAuthors of the report maintain that automation complements human labor.\n\u201cGenerally, whatever workplace activity isn\u2019t taken over by automation is complemented by it \u2014 making each remaining human task more valuable. This makes labor more valuable, and the increased productivity generally \u2026 translates into higher wages,\u201d the report says.\nThe report indicates that among the 100 largest U.S. metros, Toledo, Ohio, confronts the most potential automation in the workplace (49 percent share of job tasks), while Washington, D.C., faces the least potential automation (39.8 percent share of job tasks).",

        "raw_content": "DIY Life Threatening Disease Elimination\nHaving recently witnessed yet another elimination of a life-threatening disease, I am reminded of how incredible our bodies and the planet which surrounds us like a warm blanket on a winter\u2019s day are. When they are allowed to work at their highest potential in concert for the greater good, nothing can thwart their natural and grandiose power with a grace and elegance that only leaves me in shock and awe at the perfect design of it all.\nHow magnificent our bodies are in their natural ability to repair, rejuvenate, regenerate and defeat any disease or malady, if empowered to operate at full capacity, and if you need a little help from outside yourself to support the process, we are surrounded by natural substances that make up Mother Nature\u2019s natural pharmacy, available to us 24/7.\nWhile more and more doctors are awakening and realizing that there is more to healing than making the big bucks signing people up for expensive surgeries and prescribing Big Pharma\u2019s patented medicine, people are taking responsibility for their own health and self-healing using alternative medicine and natural remedies.\nYour body, as incredible as its potential to heal itself is, has basically been reprogrammed since birth to be incapable of healing itself, making it dependent on the chemical incarnations of natural elements, the corporations, and staff which administer them.\nSo, if you\u2019re thinking about taking personal responsibility for your own health, wellness and defeating of disease, even including the most horrible life-threatening challenges, you will need to take the proactive approach of building your body\u2019s natural ability to heal itself. If your body has its natural ability to self-heal restored, it can do the work it was designed to do, on its own; what an amazing design all of this is.\nAnd it happens all around us every day. I have been fortunate enough to know some of the people who have taken a holistic approach to healthcare defeating their own life-threatening diseases. They have emerged on the other side of their death sentence, with outstanding health, enhanced quality of life, and longevity.\nYesterday, another joins the ranks of the many who have looked death in the eye and put the Grim Reaper on notice, \u201cMother Nature and I are gonna kick your ass!\u201d and they do.\nBefuddled doctors all say the same thing, \u201cIt must have been a misdiagnosis,\u201d blaming botched tests, or alternatively, \u201ca miracle.\u201d Although, even among this exclusive club of the medical community, there are a growing number of them who are awakening and taking note of the magnificence of the self-healing human body, as well as the natural elements which surround us, as if they were gifts of God, all provided in perfect harmony to support the melody of our lives.\nThose who have healed themselves of catastrophic maladies know better. Their new lease on life was not a misdiagnosis, miracle, or accident of any kind. They healed themselves by exiting the flow of the mob and cleared a path through nature to healing and wellness, which few others dare to consider.\nI too, have allowed my body to deteriorate and become dependent on the chemistry which I\u2019ve been force-fed since birth, but now, I am joining the burgeoning ranks of the natural nutcases which are living life in a different way, a better way, embracing the magnificence and power of a brilliantly conceived and engineered closed system, where God has provided everything we need to achieve our highest and best, live a better life, our best lives, and make the world an even better place.\nMaybe even you might be interested in the concept that you, too, could heal yourself.\nAuthor davidmastersadminPosted on September 26, 2017 September 26, 2017 Categories BlogTags diseaase, diy, health and wellness, medical alternatives, natural healing\nPrevious Previous post: My Partner and I are Growing Apart\nNext Next post: Losing Your Energy Take It Back",

        "title": "Giant Anaconda \u2013 Fact Or Fiction | Dawn on the Amazon Captains Blog",
        "raw_content": "Giant Anaconda \u2013 Fact Or Fiction\nIt\u2019s widely known in Iquitos that a prize of $1M U.S awaits the person or people who can capture a live Anaconda longer than 10M. The prize money has been available for many years now and never been claimed. This article takes a look at the chances of such a snake ever being caught or even existing.\nFirstly the largest Anaconda ever properly measured came in just below 28 feet or just under 9M, whereas the world\u2019s longest snake is the Asiatic Reticulated Python with body length of 33 feet or very close to 10M. The Python however was considerably lighter than the Anaconda which was estimated to weigh over 500 pounds.\nFrequent reports have reached my ears of sightings of Anacondas estimated to be in excess of the magical 10M mark. These I tend to dismiss as accurately measuring a snake in the water is nigh impossible and human exaggeration of size comes strongly into play. Having worked with snakes for many years I am well aware of how quickly they grow in the presence of an alarmed observer.\nSnake skins also stretch and can be stretched considerably after death which is the primary reason for the demand that to claim the prize the snake must be delivered alive. This merely reduces the opportunity of deception to absolute zero.\nNow let\u2019s take a look at the probability of such a snake still existing somewhere in the Amazon jungle. 10M is a lot of serpent and would require an unusually long life, excellent feeding opportunities and critically, high temperatures to maintain its body heat at a viable level.\nAs an example of this, the largest snake recorded in prehistory came from a fossil site in Colombia and was estimated to stretch to a massive 13M and weigh in around 2500 pounds: Truly a giant snake. However it only survived because temperatures in the Amazon at the time of its life have been estimated to have been 6 degrees higher than the present day. In a word big snakes have such high body mass that constant high temperatures are essential to their survival. This alone mitigates against a 10M Anaconda.\nCryptozoologists believe in the existence of a species unknown to science which they refer to as the Black Boa, an entirely aquatic serpent which is rumoured to reach enormous lengths yet not a trace of such a creature has ever been located by the many natural history scientists and students who have lived, worked and studied in the Amazon. That a snake of such proportions could elude either capture or at least a discovery of evidence of its existence is as hard to swallow as the likelihood of Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman and a host of other zoological monsters still treading the Earth. It\u2019s true that new species turn up regularly, but the overwhelming majority of these are small, nocturnal and secretive in their habits. Despite all of this they are found whereas evidence supporting the existence of giant Anacondas remains as murky as the brown waters of the Amazon.\nIt\u2019s also well worth being mindful that Anacondas are kept by many zoos under optimum conditions, well fed, well cared for, regularly vetted, yet none have attained that magnitude of the mystical 10M mark. Wild living snakes have no such benefits.\nIn summary my guess is that the reward will never be claimed as such a reptile simply doesn\u2019t exist as a combination of factors such as temperature, disease, lack of suitable prey all tell against the probability of the Giant Anaconda ever reaching the lengths of its lightweight Asian cousin.\nHi, this is Bill Grimes reporting from Iquitos Peru.

Maj. Kenneth E. Stumpf visited Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, on Armed Forces Day to salute graduating seniors who have enlisted in the military. Several Army, Army Reserve and Wisconsin Army National Guard members were also there to meet the decorated soldier.\nStumpf was drafted into the Army from Milwaukee, and by April 25, 1967, he was serving as a specialist in Vietnam. Stumpf was a squad leader in a platoon that was on a search-and-destroy mission near Duc Pho when they came across a bunker filled with North Vietnamese troops. Three of Stumpf\u2019s men were shot and unreachable by the rest of the platoon.\nBut Stumpf refused to leave them. He jumped out of a trench to rescue all three, despite heavy fire. He then led an assault against several enemy bunkers. His troops took out two of them, while he managed to single-handedly disable a third. That success allowed them to overrun the enemy and win the day.\nFor his actions, Stumpf was promoted to staff sergeant. He was presented with the Medal of Honor on Sept. 19, 1968, about a year after he was discharged from the Army.\nHis break in service didn\u2019t last long, though. At the urging of the Army, Stumpf re-enlisted and served another tour in Vietnam, where he was wounded. He spent the next 29 years in the service, finally retiring as a sergeant major in 1994.\nMedal of Honor recipient retired Army Sgt. Maj. Kenneth E. Stumpf, alongside 88th Readiness Division Commanding General Maj. Gen. Patrick Reinert and Army Reserve Ambassador for Wisconsin Gerald W. Meyer, hands out certificates to recent enlistees during the Our Community Salutes event on Armed Forces Day, May 19, 2018, at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin. Community Salutes events honor graduating high school seniors who have enlisted in the armed forces. Army photo by Catherine Carroll\nAt the Armed Forces Day ceremony, Stumpf shared personal stories from his time in service, including one about his mother receiving his draft notice, and how he wanted to throw baseballs but ended up throwing hand grenades. He also spoke about being the recipient of the Medal of Honor and how the men he lost that day in battle were the ones who really earned the medal.\n\u201cStumpf presented ceremony certificates to all the enlistees, which was outstanding,\u201d said Gerald W. Meyer, the Army Reserve ambassador for Wisconsin. \u201cHis comments during the ceremony about earning the Medal of Honor were truly amazing. His impact on these young adults has the potential to be lifelong.\u201d\nThank you for continuing to share your story of honor and sacrifice, Sergeant Major Stumpf!\nPortions of this blog were originally posted in an article by Catherine Carroll of Fort McCoy\u2019s 88th Readiness Division.",

        "raw_content": "It's Not About Health: A Potted History\nIt's almost become a motto of this blog to state that the bans and restrictions imposed by 'public health' and, in particular, tobacco control have nothing whatsoever to do with health.\nThere have been regular weekly examples of this over the eight plus years that I've been writing here, but New York Times science columnist, John Tierney, has put together the milestone themes in an excellent essay for The Manhattan Institute. Entitled \"The Corruption of Public Health\", it is a must-read.\nHere are a few teasers, firstly on e-cigs.\nIn a bizarre historical twist, the public-health establishment is protecting the cigarette industry with the same infamous techniques that Big Tobacco formerly used. Just as tobacco apologists once argued that no conclusive scientific evidence showed that smoking was harmful, American public-health officials now insist that there\u2019s no solid evidence that smoking is worse than vaping. No tobacco executive today would dare make such a ludicrous claim about cigarettes\u2014he\u2019d fear the resulting lawsuits\u2014but government officials enjoy legal immunity that lets them engage in deadly deception, without paying the consequences.\nIt's true that vaping has brought the tobacco control industry's disgusting, inhuman and venal rent-seeking out into the open, but - as we know well here - it isn't a new phenomenon; they have always been disgusting, inhuman and venal rent-seekers. Tierney recognises this and accurately runs through some of the lies and egregious abuses of liberty that went before it.\nBut the vaping story is part of a much bigger and longer-running scandal. It is the most flagrant example of how a once-noble enterprise became corrupted by ideology and self-dealing.\nIt redefined its mission to include just about any social problem or individual behavior that might pose health risks and provide a rationale for the government to intervene in people\u2019s lives, as James T. Bennett and Thomas J. DiLorenzo chronicle in their history of the public-health movement, From Pathology to Politics.\nNow that the World Health Organization has redefined its mission to be the achievement of \u201cphysical, mental and social well-being,\u201d the field has boomed with new jobs\u2014not just for medical researchers but also for psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists, environmentalists, and assorted activists.\nJobs and salaries. Because selling your services as an 'expert' is a lucrative enterprise.\nMany smokers were persuaded to quit, but not enough to satisfy the progressives who came to dominate public health. They shared the passion for social engineering of the original Progressives, who had helped lead the movement to ban alcohol in the 1920s, and they adopted the same prohibitionist approach to tobacco. In Jacob Sullum\u2019s history of the antismoking movement, For Your Own Good, he describes the profession\u2019s new philosophy: \u201cThe public health perspective, which seeks collective prescriptions to reduce morbidity and mortality, does not take individual tastes and preferences into account. Having noted that smoking can lead to illness, public health specialists now identify smoking itself as a disease, something inherently undesirable that happens to unwilling victims.\u201d\nTo rescue these victims, public-health officials sought a \u201csmoke-free society.\u201d They lobbied for bans on smoking in indoor public spaces, reasonably enough\u2014why should taxpayers using public property be involuntarily subject to a nuisance that\u2019s smelly and can irritate respiratory ailments? But the activists also successfully fought for state and local bans on smoking outdoors and in private restaurants, bars, and workplaces, an expansion of government power ostensibly justified by the deadly menace of secondhand smoke.\nThat claim, unlike the surgeon general\u2019s landmark warning in 1964, wasn\u2019t based on rigorous empirical analysis. Led by the Environmental Protection Agency and the CDC, the new generation of public-health activists cherry-picked studies and massaged data to support claims that secondhand smoke was causing thousands of cases of lung cancer annually and that banning it in some towns brought dramatic declines in the rate of heart attacks. Prominent researchers contested those claims at the time, leading a judge in 1998 to rule that the EPA had grossly manipulated \u201cscientific procedure and scientific norms.\u201d\nLong-term studies have subsequently debunked the alarms, but antismoking activists remain unapologetically convinced that the ends justified the means. In 2013, when the Journal of the National Cancer Institute published an exceptionally rigorous study that tracked 76,000 women (including wives of smokers) and found no connection between secondhand smoke and lung cancer, the results were dismissed as irrelevant to public policy. The journal quoted one expert explaining that ending the health risk of secondhand smoke was never really the point of the bans: \u201cThe strongest reason to avoid passive cigarette smoke is to change societal behavior: to not live in a society where smoking is a norm.\u201d Science should never get in the way of social engineering.\nTierney's piece goes on to detail how these charlatans subsequently perverted science to demonise smokeless tobacco and snus, along with their routine defence tactic of smear, innuendo, ad hominem and professional sabotage, and he also touches on the role of Prohibitionist pharma organisations in the colossal deceit.\nIt is a great piece of work which illustrates how the pursuit of funding and profit - not the good of the public's health - is why nicotine in e-cigs is now categorised as harmful by people who self-describe as 'experts', but should rightly be in prison. It should be required reading in Ministries of Health the world over to show how a corrupt movement is playing politicians like gullible chimps on a daily basis.\nI urge you to go read the whole thing here. It's highly possible it might make you angry, but go read it anyway.\nUPDATE: Tierney also published a shorter piece in the Wall Street Journal on the same subject. The response from Mary Bassett, Commissioner at the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene confirms his article is correct more than a thousand further words would.\nJohn Tierney is incorrect in his criticism of New York City\u2019s new e-cigarette regulation (\u201cNew York\u2019s Mayor Gives Smokers Another Reason Not to Quit,\u201d Cross Country, Sept. 9). E-cigarettes are a serious public health concern, especially for young people.\nThese people are barking mad lunatics.\nLabels: Awesome, It's Not About Health\nPsst!

Most of Philadelphia had 7-10 inches of rain last night, winds gusting to 40+ mph, 2 tornadoes in the Delaware Valley, and major flooding. One of the main highways leading out of the city, the Schuylkill Expressway, was closed due to a foot of water on the surface and mudslides:\nFolks, this is a MAJOR HIGHWAY! The bus and about a half dozen cars had to be abandoned on the road. And here's another shot of Lincoln Drive, the road that borders the Schuylkill River in Fairmount Park:\nWell, \"borders\" is a relative term some days. Luckily the Delaware River is expected to behave itself, so we shouldn't have any problems with flooding on our street. I kept thinking as the rain clashed against the windows, the wind howled and the plants on the balcony were being stripped of leaves, \"And this is only a Tropical Depression?\"\n[A whole new respect for those in Florida.]\nWe saw a great show the other night on Nova. It was about a male Red-Tail Hawk that came to New York City's Central Park in the early nineties and has founded a little dynasty there. He was the first hawk to take up residence in the Big Apple, and he has been dubbed \"Pale Male\" for his light coloring. He has had four partners over the years (the first three died - Lola is the current femme fatale) and all told they have raised twenty-three babies. Their nest is above a window at one of Fifth Avenue's toniest addresses; one of their neighbors is Mary Tyler Moore, and Woody Allen lives next door.\nThere is a whole group of hawk fanatics that take up watch during the spring to see them nest and watch for the first flight, or fledge, of the young birds. They have a Web site set up, with pictures of the birds. Fascinating story, and beautiful animals.\nIn the past, we've had pairs of Peregrine Falcons that live here in Center City Philly. The Bell Atlantic Building had a pair at the top of their skyscraper and they had a live camera feed to a monitor in the lobby of their building so everyone could watch the chicks. Haven't seen them for a couple of years, though - maybe they've moved on.\n[I'm sure they're picking off pigeons somewhere.]\n\"If there were any justice in this world, people would occasionally be permitted to fly over pigeons.\"\n-- Gene Brown",

        "raw_content": "Posted by admin | Feb 15, 2018 | Diet, Weight-Loss | 0 |\nYou might have tried many ways to have a size zero figure, but apparently, it is not a piece of cake. The journey from plus size to size zero is more difficult than it seems. To get what you desire through exercise is not easy for most of the overweight people plus it requires a lot of energy and time as well.\nWeight loss pills are one of the easiest ways one can opt to attain what they want, but not everyone needs it. Some people are just trying to maintain their figure while others want to shed some kilos. Following a suitable diet plan is the effective method to lose weight fast. You will shed the extra pounds with the help of the plan you choose.\nThere are a number of diet plans that are designed for both men and women. Weight is one of the main problems many people have had for decades. Usually, women are a bit more conscious about their weight rather than men. The effectiveness of diet plan\u2019s credit goes to the low-calorie meal.\nIn this article, you will get to know about the how to lose weight fast at home without exercise. Check out the effective diet plans\nThe Atkin Diet\nIt is known as the effective low-carb weight loss plan as it suppresses your appetite. This diet is safe as well as healthy for almost all the dieters. In this diet plan, according to the proponents, you can have as much fat and protein you want, but avoid carbs. It is ideal for reducing belly fat and also minimizes the risk of blood pressure, insulin, blood sugar, cholesterol, and triglycerides.\nAs its name suggests, you need to eat three times in a day. Eating constantly will keep the metabolism running and this will lead to weight loss. People have burnt the body fat at a fast rate. In this diet plan, you have restricted to eat the food of your choice. You are even allowed to have red meat, bacon, candy bars, and fried chicken; you only need to control the portion size. The effectiveness of this plan cannot be denied.\nIf you want to lose around 5 to 20 pounds within a few days, then the most effective diet to follow is the crash diet. In this plan, you reduce your calorie intake to as low as 700 calories in a day. You might get uncomfortable at first attempt, but the result will keep you motivated. There are many types of crash diets such as cabbage soup diet, juice fast crash diet, Hollywood diet, etc.\nThe name says all about the diet. You are basically going to eat grapefruit or the juice at every meal. Your daily calorie intake should be less than 1000 to lose weight fast. You need to avoid white onion, celery food, cutting back on carbs and sugar and have food high in cholesterol, fat, and protein. You would be losing 10 pounds in 12 days. The result of the diet will stun you.\nPreviousDiabetes: Diet and Physical Activity or Insulin?\nNextEffective Fitness and Diet for Weight Loss",

Today\u2019s context is that of the multinational corporations, the arms race, the strong state, the economic crisis, urban decay, the growing racism, and human loneliness. It is within this highly deranged culture that contemplatives explore the waste of their own being. It is in the midst of chaos and crisis that they pursue the vision of God and experience the conflict which is at the core of the contemplative search. They become part of that conflict and begin to see into the heart of things. The contemplative shares in the passion of Christ which is both an identification with the pain of the world and also the despoiling of the principalities and powers of the fallen world-order.\nLabels: Kenneth Leech",

They had twelve children, all born at home, of whom six passed away in childhood.\nJohn worked on the railroad, farmed, and had a successful lumber business. He also suffered from acute asthma, which sent him over to Eastern Oregon to begin his sawmill. Drusilla, on the hand, suffered from tuberculosis for the last twenty years of her life.\nMost of what is known of the Heslin family is through Drusilla\u2019s diary that she started March 3, 1867 with her first entry, \u201cI have been trying to think of the most appropriate way of commencing my Journal, but it is not as easy a matter as I supposed, so I will leave it for present until I can think of something to write about.\u201d Drusilla\u2019s last entry was recorded October 10, 1910, \u201cElmer Dunbar and wife Estella visited relatives in Fairview today.\u201d\nMuch of the family\u2019s history is waiting to be researched, though some has also come to us by way of family lore, a booked called \u201cOn Duck Lane\u201d by Helen Guyton Rees, and the memories of ECHO volunteers who grew up in the area.\nHeslin Family Members 1939 Edd Heslin, Ted Heslin, Helen Maude Littlepage Heslin, Lillian Heslin Chapman\nOf the remaining children of J.P. and Drusilla, our primary Heslins and first official residents of the historic home were their eldest son, Edward \u201cEdd\u201d, and his family.\nEdd (1866-1956) and Helen Maude Littlepage Heslin (1870-1954) were marred in December 1899, and had four children: John Caryl (b. 1896), Hazel Merle (b. 1899), Edward Harold \u201cTed\u201d (b. 1905, d. 1991), and Lillian Rose (b. 1908).\nMaude worked in the Fairview Post Office seven days a week, and Edd was a successful farmer who served for thirty years in Fairview City Government, thirteen of them as Mayor. Under his leadership, the former City Hall on Fairview Avenue was built (now the location of Handy Park), the town\u2019s first water system was installed, and the Fairview Avenue railroad underpass was built. He lived to be 92.\nFrom an interview by the Gresham Outlook on October, 21, 1954, Edd was quoted; \u201cWhen I was young I once heard a minister say, \u2018If you never take your first drink, you\u2019ll never end in the gutter\u2019, and I believed it to be true.\u201d He also said at the age of 90, \u201cI feel just like I did when I was 20. It\u2019s when I start to get up off from the davenport that I know the difference.\u201d\nOf their children, Caryl, Ted, and Lillian all went to college and earned a degree. Caryl chose a degree in agriculture, Ted chose a degree in Pharmacy, and Lillian also chose agriculture. She was the youngest graduate at all three of her schooling institutions, and Caryl also served in World War I. Merle chose to work in Seattle where she met her husband and married. The two boys lived most their lives in Fairview, while the girls lived out of state. Ted was the last Heslin to live in the house until his death in 1991.

The median days on market was 34 days (45 days in February 2017; 47 days in March 2016), based on the March 2017 REALTORS\u00ae Confidence Index Survey Report.[1]\nProperties that sold in January\u2013March 2017 were typically on the market for less than 31 days in 12 states and in the District of Columbia. Looking at the values over the last few years, in most states the median length of time that properties stay on the market has trended downwards, though the graphs also show that days on market in some states fluctuates seasonally.[2]\nThe length of time that properties are on the market has fallen as demand has outpaced the inventory of homes for sale. In 2011, properties were typically on the market for 97 days.\nNationally, 48 percent of properties that sold in March 2017 were on the market for less than a month (42 percent in February 2017; 42 percent in March 2016).[3] Only 11 percent of properties were on the market for six months or longer (10 percent in February 2017; 13 percent in March 2016).\n[1]The survey asks, \u201cFor the last house that you closed in the past month, how long was it on the market from listing time to the time the seller accepted the buyer\u2019s offer?\u201d The median is the number of days at which half of the properties stayed on the market.\n[2]To increase the number of observations for each state, NAR uses data from the last three surveys. The selected states shown in these charts are those with approximately 150 observations.\n[3] Days on market usually refers to the time from listing date to contract date.\nTags:days on market,Distressed Sales,REALTOR\u00ae Confidence Index,Regional Data,seasonality,state data\nProfits High, Investment is Not\nProperties Were Typically on the Market for 36 Days in August 2016",

China has long considered the island off its coast to be part of its territory.\nThe United States has said it would defend Taiwan if it were attacked by China, and China has said it would invade if the country officially declared its independence.\nThe 2006 report says that by late 2005, China had deployed some 710-790 mobile short-range ballistic missiles to garrisons opposite Taiwan, and deployment continues to expand at an average rate of about 100 missiles per year.\nChina has deployed 400,000 ground-force personnel to the three military regions opposite Taiwan, an increase of 25,000 from last year, according to the report.\nIt has been upgrading these units with tanks, armored personnel carriers, and a substantial increase in the amount of artillery pieces, the report states.\nThe country has also increased and upgraded its air forces with planes that can fly faster and farther, totaling about 700 aircraft in range of Taiwan, it says.\nChina's move to increase its influence over Taiwan and the region has been costly. It publicly says its defense budget for 2006 is up 15 percent from last year, spending about $35 billion.\nThe Pentagon report says the actual budget is between $70 billion and $105 billion.\nThis compares with the U.S. military budget which topped $400 billion for 2005.",

(NAPS)\n(NAPSI)\u2014Much has been written about millennials and their impact on society. It appears their influence extends to diet and nutrition\u2014and may help make fruits and vegetables more accessible and convenient for everyone.\nMillennials prefer fruits and vegetables over grains and meats. That's according to a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which analyzed food-buying data by generation. Millennials\u2014those born between 1981 and the mid-2000s\u2014are now the largest, most diverse living generation and their purchasing behavior heavily influences the retail landscape.\nU.S. consumption of fresh produce grew steadily at about 1.3 percent between 2011 and 2016, and moderate annual gains will continue through 2021.1 As eating habits have evolved across the generations, so have recommendations regarding what constitutes a healthy diet. Current nutritional guidelines encourage consumers to make half their lunch fruits and vegetables, and to include whole grains, protein and dairy at each meal.2\nEating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables as part of an overall healthy diet can help protect against a number of serious and costly chronic diseases, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, some cancers and obesity. Fruits and vegetables also provide important vitamins and minerals that help the human body work as it should to fight off illness and disease.3\nAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one way to help people consume more fruits and vegetables is to make them convenient and affordable in the places where children and adults live, work, learn and play.\nOne exciting new development in the quest to make fruits and vegetables more convenient and accessible are ultrafirm watermelons. This unique line of CrispFresh watermelon varieties from Syngenta combines processing efficiency and end-product innovation opportunities. CrispFresh varieties stay fresher and firmer longer, making innovations like watermelon fries possible.\nFor generations, Syngenta has been innovating to meet the needs of growers around the world. Sluis & Groot, a legacy company of Syngenta, was founded in 1867 in the Netherlands as exporters of cabbage seeds. Today, Syngenta is one of the world's leading vegetable seed companies, with 30 crop species and 2,500 varieties.\nThe principles upheld by its founders years ago continue to inspire Syngenta today: produce superior vegetable seeds and invest in research and development to continually offer the best in the industry, which today extends to making fruits and vegetables tastier\u2014and more convenient and accessible.\n1 Fresh Produce: U.S. Market Trends and Opportunities, as published by Packaged Facts (www.packagedfacts.com)\n2 USDA\n3 Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, 2013\n\ufffd2018 Syngenta.\n\"According to a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, millennials prefer fruits and vegetables over grains and meats. http://bit.ly/2CmMBwJ\"",

        "title": "Elder Austin Gardiner: Adriatic South Mission: April 24th",
        "raw_content": "So this has been a pretty good week. To start off, this week was the week of transfers, and for the first time ever I'm not changing companions! Elder Wilson is a stud and I'm super excited to serve with him for the next 9 weeks, which happen to be the last 9 weeks of his mission.\nSo other than that, this week we had zone conference, and that was so amazing. It started out with a talk from the Stake President, President Mema. He talked to us about the spirit of Elijah, something usually mentioned for family history work, and talked about how that also applies to the people here. It's super unique here because almost all the members are baptized as individuals. President Mema said that there are about 2,700 members in Albania and 2,000 of them belong to different families. So he challenged us to work with the families of these members to find new people and to bring strong members that will last. He also challenged us and all the members to work better to bring people into the gospel. Then we had a few other trainings about giving/following up on commitments, learning about the life of Christ and applying his example in our work, and about sacrifice and how it brings blessings. It was an amazing meeting and I went away very inspired and ready to work hard. Also it was super fun seeing some friends, like Elder Schneider and Elder Benson.\nThen, the day after I went on an exchange to Tirana and got to serve with Elder Samuel for a day. That was cool, we met with a lot of people did almost all our work in English which was kind of weird. While I was gone, Elder Wilson and Elder Benson had a lesson with the Beqiri family and ended up putting them all on a baptismal date. But, later this week we talked to them and they said they can't afford the rent for their house so they have to move back to Lushnje. They said they'll try and come back some day later, but for now they don't really have a choice.\nThen, we've also met with the Gjergji family this week. They didn't end up coming to church unfortunately, but they have started reading the Book of Mormon now. And they're also super good about doing missionary work. So far we've already met with the mothers brother and his wife, their catholic neighbor, and also the daughter is talking to her coworkers about it when she's at work. They're super awesome and understand what we teach super well, the only hard thing is getting them to come to church because they work on Sunday.\nAlso, this Sunday President Weidmann came to church here in Durres. Sacrament meeting was super good, President and Sister Weidmann both gave talks and they were great. Then second hour was good too, we talked about the organization of the priesthood, which is something that very few people have a good understanding of here. So it was a good lesson. Also it was cool because we had one of our investigators named Mustafa at church, and he's a Hoxh(I'm not sure what the direct translation of that is, but it's the person who is the leader of a mosque and does the prayer call) and he said he liked our church better than worshiping in the mosque. Then in third hour we talked about tithing, and that was a big mess. It ended up turning into this huge argument where everyone was yelling at each other about whether tithing gets paid on net income or gross income. In the end one of the members just had President Weidmann give a final call on it all and then it went fine from there. Also this week at church, two members from Elbasan, Ersi and Jueda, came to church here in Durres because they're going with the youth on their temple trip to Switzerland. So that was super fun to see them. And V\u00ebllai Cani(Elder Cani) got back from visiting his family in Italy and it was awesome seeing him again.\nThis week we also got a car! That's been super helpful because for some reason all our investigators live forever away, but we had to get that registered today and that was a huge mess.\nWe also met with a guy named Agim. He's a guy that we met a while ago and then finally met this week. He came in for a lesson with us and he was just talking about how work is going really hard for him, then he got really sad and started crying because of some things going on in his life. So we showed him the Prince of Peace video, and he looked a lot better. So then we talked a lot about how Christ can give us peace, and we showed him the church self reliance program, and recently we've been going through that with him. It was super cool because they day after our first lesson we talked with him and he was so grateful to us because of the video and that he felt like he was spiritually healed after that. So he's really cool and we've become really good friends with him, and now he even accepted to take a Book of Mormon and read that!\nWe might be moving houses soon, so that'll be a hassle. It's been cold here this week too. Definitely not as cold as home, but with it feeling like summer recently it was a big change. Also I still haven't gotten the package. It wasn't there at the mission office last week, but they may have just not gotten the mail yet that week. Hopefully that comes soon.\nSo in general I've been doing great. I'm still loving it here and the people here are great.",

It can occur as single lesions at predisposed sites (e.g., knees, elbows) or as a generalized disease across wider areas of the body, causing pain, disfigurement and disability.1,2Although it is typically seen in adults, it can develop at any age with equal distribution between men and women.1\n\"This is a great vehicle and should increase patient adherence to the use of this medication. Public reimbursement will allow many more patients to benefit from this formulation,\" said Dr. Kirk Barber, a board-certified dermatologist in Calgary, Alberta.\n\"I am very pleased to see that Enstilar\u00ae will be covered under the Alberta formulary coverage starting in December 2018 so more of our patients can have access to this effective medication,\" said Dr. Parbeer Grewal, a board-certified dermatologist in Edmonton, Alberta.\n\"Enstilar\u00ae foam is first-line treatment for my patients with psoriasis, regardless of severity. Patient satisfaction is extremely high. I believe there is no better topical product for psoriasis,\" said Dr. Vimal H. Prajapati, a board-certified dermatologist in Calgary, Alberta.\nPsoriasis vulgaris affects approximately 1 million Canadians which equates to about 3% of the entire Canadian population.1,3\n\"This new format to apply a topical treatment should help with adherence for patients. We are looking forward to seeing Enstilar\u00ae available to all patients across Canada,\" said Kathryn Andrews-Clay, Executive Director of the Canadian Association of Psoriasis Patients.\nEnstilar\u00ae already received approval for the R\u00e9gie de l'Assurance Maladie du Qu\u00e9bec (RAMQ) on June 1st 2017, Saskatchewan Drug Plan on January 1st 2018, Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) on October 15th 2018, New Brunswick Drug Plan on November 8th 2018, and Ontario Drug Benefit (ODB) on October 31st 2018.\nKristian Fick, President of LEO Pharma Canada, says, \"Today marks a special day for those living with psoriasis in Alberta.

        "title": "Lloyds Bank Complicates Investing for Its Investors | Economy Watch",
        "raw_content": "Lloyds Bank Complicates Investing for Its Investors\nFebruary 10, 2015\u2022 Investment Management\u2022 by The Conversation\nIf you need a reminder of how complex investing in the stock market can be, look no further than the row currently raging between Lloyds Bank and up to 100,000 investors who helped to bail it out in 2009 by agreeing to take up some rather special corporate bonds.\nLloyds now wants to cancel the bonds, which means many of the investors will be unable to replace what they had seen as a long-term income and some may lose part of their original investment. These investors \u2013 most of whom are elderly \u2013 are witnessing at first-hand how, as organisations evolve and restructure, seemingly straightforward investments can turn into complicated nightmares.\nMany of these investors first became involved in the stock market in the 1990s when looking for a source of income to top up their pensions. They were attracted to a type of corporate bond called a permanent income bearing security (PIB) issued by building societies.\nWhen you buy any corporate bond, you are making a loan to the company that issues it. A standard bond has a set lifetime, called a term, and pays a regular fixed amount of interest (called the coupon) during that term. Many corporate bonds can be traded on the stock market. Their features and stock-market price are usually quoted by reference to a standardised unit called the \u201cpar value\u201d which is typically \u00a3100. This par value is paid back (redeemed) at the end of the term. If you buy the bonds on the stock market, you may pay more or less than the par value.\nThere are many variations on this standard model. For example, PIBs have no set term. They continue indefinitely and so are called \u201cirredeemable\u201d bonds. Investors are attracted to them because they offer a relatively high, long-term income. The most obvious risk is that, to get your money back, you have to sell on the stock market where you might get back less than you paid for them.\nSome risks involved\nThere are other risks too \u2013 interest payments can be skipped and, if the organisation issuing the bonds went bust, you could lose a large chunk or even all of your money. But these risks have generally seemed less likely to materialise in the sober world of building societies.\nMany PIBs vanished during the 1990s when building societies converted to, or were swallowed up, by their racier cousins, the banks. But the PIBs were often replaced by similar investments \u2013 and this is how, by the time of the 2007 global banking crisis, Lloyds had a large number of retired investors holding a mixed bag of bonds with them.\nAs the global crisis unfolded, Lloyds needed to raise huge amounts of extra capital from its existing investors. With support from the government, one way it did this was to persuade them to exchange their bonds for different ones called enhanced capital notes (ECNs). These notes, technically a type of bond called a contingent convertible, are very different from PIBs. On the plus side Lloyds guaranteed that the interest, at rates from 7% to 15% of par, would be paid. On the other hand, ECNs have fixed terms (ranging from 2019 to 2032) and complicated conditions under which Lloyds can decide to convert the bonds to shares or redeem them early.\nWith interest rates now so low, there is a big incentive for any bond issuer to cancel expensive high-interest debt, if it can. For example, the government is replacing some of its longstanding bonds, such as its War Loan (issued in 1932) with new debt that pays lower interest rates. Little surprise that Lloyds has jumped at a chance to pay back its ECNs early. Whether it can do this legally is in dispute, however.\nBack in 2009, Lloyds\u2019 reason for issuing the ECNs was that they counted as a type of secure financing that regulators would accept as increasing the financial strength of the bank. Recently, the rules have changed and ECNs no longer count. Lloyds claims this is a trigger which permits early redemption of the ECNs. But investors, championed by the campaigner, Mark Taber, claim that\u2019s not what the terms and conditions say. It will be down to the Prudential Regulatory Authority, which regulates banks, to decide whether Lloyds can go ahead.\nLast August, the Financial Conduct Authority, the regulator that oversees financial firms\u2019 business conduct, ruled that contingent convertible bonds, like the Lloyds ECNs, are too complex and risky to be sold to ordinary investors. If this is found to be the case, it would suggest that the Lloyds\u2019 investors are not just being treated roughly now, but may have been misled back in 2009. Certainly, they are a long way from their starting point in the simple world of PIBs.\nLloyds Bank bond row makes investing sound harder than it is is republished with permission from The Conversation UK\nSee Also: Bonds",

        "raw_content": "The changing face of federalism has been reflected in federal Indian law and policy throughout the history of the United States. Because the framers did not envision the Indian tribes as part of the constitutional system, it has been up to the courts and Congress to define the powers and authority of the tribes. The single most influential factor in this determination has been the concept of federalism. Over time there have been five major eras of federalism, that is, national supremacy (1789\u20131865), dual federalism (1870\u20131937), cooperative federalism (1932\u201368), new federalism (1968\u201388) and state-centered federalism (1986\u2013?). In each era the federal-state relationship changes, as does the federal-state-tribal relationship.\n1 NATIONAL SUPREMACY\n2 DUAL FEDERALISM\n3 COOPERATIVE FEDERALISM\n4 NEW FEDERALISM\n5 STATE-CENTERED FEDERALISM\n5.1 Anne M. McCulloch\nThe early struggles between the national government and the states for power and supremacy led to three of the most influential cases in Indian law: Johnson v. McIntosh (1823), Cherokee Nation v. Georgia (1831), and Worcester v. Georgia (1832). U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall, a Federalist, used these cases to extend federal power not only over the states but also over the Indian tribes, which heretofore had been treated as separate nations. Marshall, in extending national sovereignty over the tribes, defined them as \u201cdomestic, dependent nations,\u201d a term that itself has had various interpretations over the years.\nThe claim of the national government to supremacy over the states was cemented by the Civil War and the powers of each level were clearly delineated, particularly regarding the Commerce Clause. The Indian wars of that period also determined the fate of the tribes, and court cases and congressional statutes similarly divided federal and tribal jurisdictions. In 1871 Congress ended treaty making with the tribes by adding a \u201crider\u201d to an appropriations bill; then in 1885, the Major Crimes Act displaced traditional tribal conduct codes and gave Congress authority over much of the criminal justice system of the tribes. Upholding the Major Crimes Act in United States v. Kagama (1886), the Supreme Court diminished the legal status of Indians to being \u201cwards of the nation.\u201d Finally, under the General Allotment Act, or Dawes Act, of 1887, Congress seized what little Indian land remained, subdivided it into individual tribal member plots of 40, 80, or 160 acres, and then sold off the remaining \u201csurplus\u201d land to non-Indians. The intent of these acts was aimed at eliminating tribal identity in favor of assimilation into American culture. Unfortunately, assimilation as a policy did not work and the reservations became victims of federal neglect for over fifty years.\nThe New Deal of the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration ushered in the next era of federalism for both the states and the Indian tribes. Cooperative federalism was based on a partnership between the states and the federal government to overcome the impact of the Great Depression through a series of shared programs. During this era, the government also sought to form new cooperative relations with the tribes. In 1934, Congress passed the Indian Reorganization Act (IRA), or the Wheeler-Howard Act, which encouraged tribes to organize themselves under written constitutions based on a model developed by the Department of Interior. Approximately 250 Indian tribes and communities adopted an IRA constitution during the two-year period that the BIA gave for implementation of the act. Seventy-seven tribes opted for other forms of government, including traditional forms.\nThe return of Republicans to power under President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1952 meant devolution of power back to the states, and with it a reversal of federal Indian policy. House Resolution 108 and Public Law 280 passed by Congress in 1953 had the dual purposes of terminating the Indian tribes and conveying power over them to the states. While the larger tribes were able to forestall termination, many smaller tribes succumbed to it; their reservations were again subdivided among the tribal members, and tribal property was sold off. Reservations that were not terminated saw jurisdiction over most civil and criminal matters transferred to the states.\nWhile the Civil Rights movement stemmed the momentum of \u201cstates\u2019 rights\u201d in favor of a strong national government that could establish and implement civil rights legislation, it was not until the New Federalism of President Richard Nixon, which emphasized local control, that tribes began to be viewed as partners in the federal system. The era of New Federalism saw the passage of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (1971), the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (1975), the Indian Child Welfare Act (1978), and ultimately the Indian Gaming and Regulatory Act (1988). Also, during this time period a number of opinions rendered by the Supreme Court substantially increased the scope of tribal sovereignty in areas such as taxing (McClanahan v. Arizona State Tax Commission 1973), criminal jurisdiction (U.S. v. Wheeler 1978), fishing (Washington v. Washington State Commercial Passenger Fishing Vessel Association 1979), and gambling (California v. Cabazon Band of Mission Indians 1987).\nSTATE-CENTERED FEDERALISM\nThe fifth stage in federalism and federal Indian policy began with the appointment by President Ronald Reagan of William Rehnquist to be chief justice of the Supreme Court in 1986. As chief justice, Rehnquist pushed his agenda of state-centered federalism, favoring state power over individual rights and tribal powers. In Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of State of Oregon v. Smith (1990), a case involving the use of peyote by members of the Native American Church, the Rehnquist Court undercut the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment in favor of state regulation. An attempt by Congress through the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (1993) to override this decision was also struck down in City of Boerne v. Flores (1997). The Rehnquist court even resurrected a moribund Eleventh Amendment in Seminole Tribe of Florida v. Florida (1996) to overrule a provision of the Indian Gaming and Regulatory Act (IGRA) that required states to \u201cnegotiate [gaming compacts] in good faith\u201d with the tribes.\nAs federalism has evolved over the years, so has the position of the Indian tribes within it. Without explicit incorporation in the U.S. Constitution, the tribes have tended to lose out whenever the power shifted heavily toward the states or the federal government. However, when the emphasis was on cooperation among governments, as during the 1930's and 1970's, then the tribes were strengthened.\nVine Deloria Jr. and David E.

Here, I have met very motivated students from different parts of the world with diverse academic and extra-curricular interests. This has helped me to become a more well-rounded individual. Moreover, I love UB's open and friendly academic environment, as well as the many leadership opportunities offered here. I have been fortunate to be involved in holding Tech Savvy workshops. I have also served as a teaching assistant for several undergraduate level courses, as well as serving as an instructor for summer engineering classes. My opportunities at UB include a research assistantship from the CBE department, and I have also received the UB Engineering Graduate Dean's Scholar Award.\nMy research in Professor Paschalis Alexandridis\u2019s lab is focused on the dissolution processing of nanostructured polymers for effective utilization of cellulosic biomass. Dissolution of cellulose, a nanostructured polymer abundant in nature, is a critical step for the efficient utilization of this renewable resource as a starting material for the synthesis of high value-added functional polymers and chemicals and also for biofuel production. The recalcitrance of cellulose microfibrils, which is a function of complex network of cellulose, partial crystalline structure, and the extended noncovalent interactions among molecules, provides the major barrier to solubility of cellulose. My research focuses on understanding the mechanism of direct dissolution of cellulosic biomass via modeling of this process. The insights obtained from our efforts facilitate the design of efficient solvent systems and conditions for biomass processing.",

But it didn\u2019t start out that way; it started out that I walked in and he says, \u201cI heard that Soul Asylum song.\u201d He said, \u201cThat\u2019s a great song, why wasn\u2019t why wasn\u2019t it a hit?\u201d\n\u201cStand Up and Be Strong.\u201d And what\u2019s weird is that at the time when Dave [Pirner] wrote it, a couple of people in the organization were like \u201cNah.\u201d They didn\u2019t think that it was the right sort of single to lead off the record. I was like \u201cDude, why aren\u2019t we doing this one?\u201d and Dave was like, \u201cI don\u2019t know, the camp\u2019s not really into it.\u201d I was like, \u201cWell I\u2019m into it,\u201d and he went \u201cOkay!\u201d So me and Dave just kind of pushed it through and it ended up being the first song on the record and Silver Lining actually turned out to be a real fan favorite. I remember we ran into Eddie Trunk somewhere and he was like \u201cHey, that Silver Lining record is great\u201d \u2014 the Trunk endorsed it straight away. And Prince was like, \u201cThat was supposed to be a huge hit, what happened?\u201d\nThen he says, \u201cWell, can I cover it? I wanna record that song.\u201d I said I imagine so, and he said \u201cWell will you call Dave right now and ask him?\u2019 I said sure, so I stepped out of the studio and I got Dave on the cell phone \u2014 which is hard enough to do anyway and he just happened to pick up \u2014 and I told him, \u201cPrince wants to cover \u2018Stand Up and Be Strong\u2019 but he doesn\u2019t want to do it without your approval, he doesn\u2019t want any problems later on.\u201d Dave was like, \u201cYeah absolutely man, I\u2019m honored.\u201d So we cut a version of it that\u2019s in the vault somewhere, but I remember that was kind of a point where a world that I was just entering into, and a world that I was still dabbling in, kind of collided. So I think it\u2019s appropriate that we lead off with that. Also Dave is joining us for the tribute. He was a great fan of Prince\u2019s music and Prince clearly liked what Dave was doing too.\nRe: Michael Bland shares his incredible stories...\nI never liked 'Stand Up And Be Strong' that much either to be honest. It's an alright song, but there are far more catchier songs on The Silver Lining that probably would have been more successful as a first single.\nI really liked hearing that story from Michael Bland. However, there are other songs (that did or did not make the record) that I like more than \"Stand Up.\" I DO like the song in a live setting when folks pump their fists for the \"fight!\" lyric.",

If and when the exploratory phase progresses to commercial extraction of shale gas then, in addition to the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources and the planning authorities, the EPA will have a regulatory role.\nThe EPA\u2019s role is to assess licence applications for activities listed in the EPA Acts, in line with EU Directives and to decide whether or not to grant an operating licence. Any activity listed in the EPA Acts must apply for an operating licence from the EPA. The commercial extraction of shale gas is listed as a Scheduled Activity under the EPA Act (\u201cextraction, other than offshore extraction, of petroleum, natural gas, coal or bituminous shale\u201d) and therefore is an activity for which an application for an IPPC licence must be submitted.\nNo applications for the commercial extraction of shale gas have been received by the EPA for assessment.\nAny application in the future to the EPA for a licence for the commercial extraction of shale gas would be assessed on a case by case basis, in accordance with the requirements of the EPA Acts. These Acts include that the EPA is statutorily barred from issuing a licence to an activity which can cause significant environmental pollution.\nApplicants would be required to demonstrate that the proposed activity would not cause any breaches of National legislation or European directives, including:\nThe Water Framework Directive 2000/60/EC\nThe Groundwater Directives 80/68/EC and 2006/118/EC\nThe European Environmental Objectives (Surface Water) Regulations 2009\nEnvironmental Liability Directive 2004/35/EC\nCultural heritage, habitats and Protected species legislation\nIt is anticipated that some of the key issues to be addressed in any future application with regard to hydraulic fracturing would include: the potential for groundwater contamination from methane migration and chemical use, climate change impact and water usage. Applicants for such a licence would be required to demonstrate the use of best environmental practice and the use of state of the art technologies in order to minimise environmental impact.\nAs part of the licence application process, anyone can make a submission on an application, and the EPA must have regard to any submissions received when assessing the application. Subsequent to a proposed decision on the application, there is an objection period which allows the applicant and third parties to object to the decision. The EPA would assess any such objections received, including any requests for an oral hearing into the objections, in accordance with its legal obligations.\nFrequently Asked Questions about shale-gas fracking and the EPA\u2019s role are available at FAQ",

Candidate Takes WJR's Frank Beckmann to Task on the Question of 'Socialism'\nClick Here to Listen To the Podcast of Matt Erard's Interview on the Frank Beckmann show\nDETROIT -- Dually-nominated Socialist/Green State Representative candidate Matt Erard (53rd District -- Ann Arbor) was invited to be a live, in-studio guest yesterday on the program of WJR-760AM's mid-morning radio personality Frank Beckmann. During his portion of the show, Erard answered attempted challenges on air from WJR callers, in addition to those from the host. Beckmann's two other guests on yesterday's program, following Erard, were Mitt Romney and 'Joe the plumber' Wurzelbacher.\nThe inevitably ensuing debate between the conservative talk radio host and socialist candidate, which predictably centered on the topic of socialism, demonstrated a remarkable divergence over even the most foundational premises for an objective understanding of either socialism or capitalism; both conceptually, and as they relate to modern conditions. As an apparent 'warning' to follower's of his program, Beckmann's official website presently lists the false quote attributed to former Socialist Party leader Norman Thomas, regarding the insidious implementation of socialism through the guise of 'liberalism.' That this quote attributed to Thomas was in fact made up by Ronald Reagan is in no way exceptionally ironic within the present wave of obscenely demogogical distortions of the meaning of socialism, as present conditions increasingly demonstrate its realization as the only sensible solution for the working majority.\nErard suggests that equation of socialism with Wall Street's demand for a public bailout, as expressed nearly ubiquitously in recent weeks by conservative corporate media outlets, is largely of a similar product to their highly intensified anti-immigration rhetoric. Both, Erard contends, are aimed at diverting outrage over the corporate establishment's increasing reduction of jobs and wages, against the unified interests of working people.\n\"The manufactured conflation of such an obscene public robbery by the ruling class, with socialism, and with all general class-blind notions of 'spreading the wealth around,' is aimed precisely at diverting outrage from the distinct source of this devastating theft, toward demonization of the sole solution to the extreme social inequality and systemic decline that's created it. Such an effort is only imaginable within the context of the immense historical ignorance that it's made every effort to impose upon working people in the U.S. for generations,\" Erard said.\nErard further argued that the unceasing efforts of the Republican section of the corporate establishment to designate the presidential candidate of its other big business party as a \"socialist,\" during this same period of financial crisis, stem from the directly related aim of entrapping all expression of such outrage within the walls of the two corporate parties. Such rhetoric, he asserts, is particularly directed at small business owners facing increasing insecurity in the prospects for growth and sustainability of their assets, as well as those within the working class, as most recently personified by Beckmann's later guest yesterday, 'Joe the Plumber', whose narrow focus on progressing to the ranks of petty capitalists displaces their recognition of their own class interests as members of the working majority.\nWhen asked by Beckmann, at the end of his portion of the program, whether Barack Obama is a socialist, Erard questioned what such a designation would then make a past presidential candidate, whose positions on all related points of economic comparison were substantially to the left of those held by Obama today -- Richard Nixon!\nErard to be Morning Show Guest on WJR News/Talk 760\nStarting at approximately 10:20AM on Monday October 20th, Matt Erard will be at the WJR News Talk 760 AM studio in Detroit for a live interview about his campaign for 53rd district State Representative with Frank Beckman Morning Show guest host John McCulloch.

The Political Courage Test, called the National Political Awareness Test in prior years, tests candidates' willingness to share their positions on a wide variety of issues with their constituents.\nClick Here to Read Matt Erard's Responses to the 2008 Political Courage Test\nErard Campaign Calls for Immediate Passage of the Michigan Moratorium Act\nIn the wake of the U.S. Congress' recent maneuver to shift responsibility for the banking industry's bad-faith lending practices to working U.S. tax payers, Matt Erard, Socialist/Green candidate for 53rd District State Representative, renewed his call upon the Michigan State Legislature to immediately pass the Michigan Moratorium Act, which would impose an emergency moratorium on all home foreclosures throughout the state of Michigan.\nThe act was introduced earlier this year as Senate Bill 1306 by State Senator Hansen Clarke and as House Bill 5857 by State Representative Shanelle Jackson. The Senate version of the bill would establish a two-year moratorium on foreclosures, while the House version would establish a one-year moratorium. Erard contended that it is imperative that legislators ensure that final version of the bill reflect the language of the Senate version, as such relief would need to last for two years, at the very least, to provide an essential window of opportunity for the tens of thousands of Michigan families currently facing foreclosure actions.\nPointing to the extensive research conducted by the Michigan Moratorium NOW Coalition, whose grassroots organizing efforts led to the introduction of the two bills, such a moratorium already has an established precedent in Michigan. In the 1930s, Michigan was among 25 states to pass a five year moratorium on foreclosures. Not only was the bill successfully enacted by the Michigan State Legislature, but was upheld as Constitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court.\nWith 7.1% of Michigan homes now facing foreclosure and a state unemployment rate now at 8.9% under the deceptively under-counting Labor Department figures, current conditions now compel emergency economic relief for Michigan workers more than at any time since the Great Depression. Such relief must not only include a moratorium on home foreclosures, Erard argued, but also numerous emergency measures addressed in his campaign program, such as a massive state public works program, statewide socialized health care, a 100% capital flight tax, and greatly expanded unemployment compensation.\nErard further noted that nearly 250 homes have fallen into foreclosure since July in the 53rd District alone. This period since July also marks the first time in recent memory that Ann Arbor's unemployment has risen above the national average - now standing within the city at 6.9%. As Ann Arbor Realtor Missy Caulk recently wrote in her local real estate blog, \"to those of us who live in Ann Arbor, we have always thought we were exempt from the rest of the state of Michigan when it came to the housing industry downturns. Not this time...Most of foreclosed homes in Ann Arbor and in the State of Michigan are due to homeowners either loosing their jobs or being transferred and not being able to sell their homes for what they owe.\"\nBy all present indications, the hundreds of 53rd district residents now facing home foreclosures cannot look to their elected Representative in Lansing as a potential source of relief. Despite numerous appeals to her office from the Moratorium NOW coalition, not only has Democratic Representative Rebekah Warren failed to sponsor the House version of the Michigan Moratorium Act, she's given no public indication that she would support any kind of statewide moratorium on home foreclosures for any length of time. Erard suggested that Warren's reluctance to provide such desperately needed relief to her constituents can be traced to a whole different set of conflicting interests. Having received tens of thousands in campaign contributions from such entities as as the Michigan Bankers Association, Michigan Association of Realtors, MORBAN (Mortgage Lenders), University Bank, and Lasalle Investment Management, support for such a measure would be intolerable to her foremost constituency.\nSocialist/Green Matt Erard is First GPMI Candidate to Qualify for November State Election Ballot\nDually-Nominated Candidate Qualified for a Second Time to Challenge Rebekah Warren on the November Ballot for Michigan\u2019s 53rd District (Ann Arbor) State House Seat.\nContact: Matt Erard\nVoteErard@yahoo.com\nwww.erard2008.org\nHaving already won the nomination of the Socialist Party USA by unanimous vote of its local affiliate, the \u2018Washtenaw County Reds,\u2019 Matt Erard, a University of Michigan alumnus and graduate student at the University of Michigan\u2019s School of Social Work, unanimously won the joint nomination of the Green Party of Michigan for the same seat at its Washtenaw County Nominating Caucus on Monday July 14th. After filing the necessary paperwork work with the Washtenaw County Clerk\u2019s office following the Nominating Caucus last week, Erard\u2019s name was added to the General Election Candidate Listing on Michigan Secretary of State\u2019s website yesterday as the first Green Party candidate to qualify for the November General Election ballot\nErard, who currently serves as the State Chairperson of the Socialist Party of Michigan, the National Ballot Access Coordinator for the Socialist Party\u2019s 2008 presidential ticket of Brian Moore and Stewart Alexander, and the founding organizer of the Michigan Third Parties Coalition, is no stranger to restrictive ballot access laws. Although the nationally-affiliated Socialist Party of Michigan has over a century long history of running candidates across the state, including the past five state elections, it has done so without recognition by the state of Michigan as a ballot qualified party. Michigan\u2019s extraordinarily prohibitive ballot access laws effectively deny minor parties a spot on the ballot in any race in the state if they do not have budgets of many tens of thousands of dollars to spend on a statewide qualifying effort.\nConsequently, when Erard was first nominated by the Socialist Party as its candidate for 53rd District State Representative in 2006, he became the first candidate in over twenty years to receive the requisite number of signatures to be nominated for the General Election ballot directly by 53rd District voters. Despite being listed on the ballot as a candidate with \u201cNo Party Affiliation,\u201d due to Michigan being among a minority of states that prohibits even independently qualified candidates from listing a party label on the ballot, Erard\u2019s extensive campaigning during the 2006 election still led him to receive the votes of eight-hundred and forty-seven Ann Arbor voters.\nNow a dual member of the Socialist Party and the Green Party, which has remained ballot-qualified in Michigan since 2000, Erard sought the Green Party nomination this year, in addition to the nomination of the Socialist Party, in order to build an even more formidable grassroots coalition for 2008 - organized around the complimentary aims and struggles for social equality, civil liberties, peace, ecology, and democracy, which the platforms of both grassroots parties to which he belongs represent.\n\u201cServing as a candidate of both the Green Party and the Socialist Party doesn\u2019t at all entail having to worry about any conflicting positions between the two that would inhibit me from representing both parties to the fullest. Although the Socialist Party of Michigan supports all of the programmatic demands in the Green Party of Michigan\u2019s platform, it also takes these demands a step further toward a systemic analysis of the root of existing struggles\u201d Erard said. \u201cWhile the Green Party, as an even wider electoral coalition, includes both socialists and non-socialists in its membership, the socialist appeal of my campaign, which reflects the specific Socialist Party side of my dual nomination, serves only as a supplement to the overlapping political programs of the two parties I\u2019m representing this year.\u201d\nErard noted that the Green and Socialist parties in Michigan have long had an amiable, rather than competitive relationship. He suggested that the positive association between the two state parties, which have run jointly nominated candidates in each Michigan election since 2002, is partially out of similarity in political principle and partially a reflection of the state Green Party\u2019s commitment to pluralistic democracy in the face of highly undemocratic ballot access restrictions. Erard hopes to use his 2008 campaign to help build both parties in Michigan as electoral forces that can speak to the real and immediate concerns of working people and youth against escalating corporate assaults on our rights, living standards, and environment from which the major parties have consistently provided complicity rather than relief.\nWith an extensive campaign platform that he feels incorporates all of the central positions of both parties as they pertain to this election, Erard is consistently identifying his candidacy this year with both party labels and listing the summaries of principles, key values, and membership information for both parties on his campaign\u2019s website and brochure. Erard looks forward to the dual nomination of two other candidates already nominated by the Socialist Party who are also seeking the nomination of the Green Party at its State Convention in Marshall this weekend and who plan a similar dual campaign format: Dwain Reynolds for State Board of Education and Jean Treacy for 1st District Representative in Congress. He also looks forward to working side by side with other Michigan Green candidates this year, who he says may not all also be dual Socialists, but who nonetheless share underlying Green values, most of the same immediate demands, and will commendably serve as the anti-corporate voices for social justice and people\u2019s power in their respective races.\nUltimately Erard hopes that the Socialist Party and the Green Party can work together to help build the mass movement for the widest possible break from the Democratic Party, which he argues Michigan workers in particular are coming to realize is inseparable from the corporate interests that finance it. \u201cThe Democratic Party cannot be transformed into anything other than a corporate apparatus for quelling social movements and disenfranchising the working majority,\u201d Erard said. \u201cBut it can only continue to succeed with that function as long as we the people continue to take the bait of its politicians\u2019 posturing and invest our political struggles and hopes within its clutches.\u201d\nErard contends that that the first term of Rebekah Warren, the Democratic incumbent candidate for 53rd District State Representative whom he first challenged in 2006, has epitomized such corporate capitulation at the state level. \u201cDuring the course of a financial meltdown cutting across the state\u2019s public and private sectors since Warren first took office, she has failed to take a stand for any of the types of restructuring proposals that are urgently needed to bring paltry relief, much less solutions, to the emergency conditions facing working people of this state\", Erard said. \u201cWhile the nearly limitless number of major corporations that have bankrolled her campaign have been able to count on her votes to ensure that there\u2019s no shortage of taxpayer dollars available for private industry handouts, the \u2018progressive principles\u2019 she touted during the 2006 race predictably appear to have been left in an old dusty bin reserved for contested Democratic primaries.\u201d\nEven more so, than in 2006, Erard looks forward to the coming campaign with optimistic enthusiasm. \u201cWith the support of both the Socialist and Green Parties this year, a growing grassroots support base among 53rd District voters, and so many Ann Arbor voters who are increasingly exasperated with their representation by the Democratic Party in both Lansing and Washington, we\u2019re confident in swinging the pendulum further towards\u2019 working people\u2019s power in 2008. Unlike Warren and the rest of our Democratic opponents, our arena, in building an independent movement of the working and oppressed majority, is not limited to the Capitol Building, but rather extends to mass action in our workplaces and on the streets\u201d Erard said.\nThe listing of the Erard Campaign\u2019s Qualification for the November General Election Ballot can be found at: http://miboecfr.nictusa.com/election/candlist/08GEN/08GEN_CL.HTM\n2008 Erard for State Representative Campaign Leaflet Available.\nA leaflet for Matt Erard's 2008 campaign for 53rd District State Representative is now available as a PDF document to download, print, and distribute.\nClick Here to Download the 2008 Campaign Leaflet\nErard to Speak at the 2008 Socialist Party National Organizing Conference in Ann Arbor, July 11th-12th.\nErard will be joined by 2008 State Board of Education Candidate Dwain Reynolds and 2008 Socialist Party Presidential Candidate Brian Moore.\nMatt Erard, Socialist/Green candidate for 53rd District State Representative (Ann Arbor), will be speaking to both his direct local constituents and supporters from around the country at the 2008 Socialist Party National Organizing Conference taking place July 11th and 12th in Ann Arbor.

Click Here to read the article\nSOCIALIST TO RE-CHALLENGE WARREN FOR MICHIGAN'S 53rd DISTRICT STATE HOUSE SEAT\nMonday April 21st 2008\nANN ARBOR \u2013 Socialist Matt Erard announced his candidacy today to run for a second time against Democratic incumbent Rebekah Warren for the 53rd District seat in the Michigan House of Representatives. Erard ran as a Socialist for the same office for the first time in the previous election in 2006. Due to the Socialist Party\u2019s lack of ballot access in Michigan, Erard was forced to appear on the 2006 ballot as a candidate with \u201cNo Party Affiliation\u201d and was the first candidate for that office to qualify for the general election ballot by petition since 1984. Although not victorious in the last election, Erard received eight-hundred and forty-seven votes from Ann Arbor voters.\nThis year, Erard will be listed on the ballot as a candidate of the Green Party and will be dually campaigning as both a Socialist Party and Green Party candidate. He received the Socialist Party\u2019s nomination to run on April 18th and intends to formally receive the nomination of the Green Party at its upcoming Washtenaw County nominating convention. \u201cMichigan\u2019s extraordinarily restrictive ballot access laws have rarely stopped Socialist Party candidates from qualifying for the ballot in Michigan elections,\u201d Erard said. \u201cIn this race, our campaign will have the support of two parties committed to challenging the corporate politics that dominate our State Legislature.\u201d\nErard argues that Warren, since first elected in 2006, has done little to change the course of attacks on the rights and living standards of Michigan working people. \u201c[Warren\u2019s] most significant accomplishment thus far has been the exponential increase in corporate campaign funding she\u2019s received,\u201d the introduction to Erard\u2019s 2008 campaign website states. Erard contends that Warren has failed to introduce the meagerly progressive proposals in her 2006 platform while voting to fully fund corporate welfare and the prison industrial complex, rather than essential social and environmental programs.\nDuring his 2006 campaign, Erard was an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan. Having graduated last year with a bachelor\u2019s degree in political science and sociology, Erard is returning to the University of Michigan this fall to pursue a master\u2019s degree in its School of Social Work. While employed in the telecommunications industry, Erard is also serving as the Chairperson of the Socialist Party of Michigan, the founding organizer for the Michigan Third Parties Coalition, and the Midwest Coordinator for the Socialist Party\u2019s 2008 presidential campaign, and the Planning Convener for the Socialist Party\u2019s National Organizing Conference to be held in Ann Arbor this July.\nThe Socialist Party chartered a new local branch in the cities of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti last January, which operates in conjunction with the local branch of fellow socialist organization, Solidarity, as the Washtenaw County Reds. Erard\u2019s campaign is among five Socialist Party campaigns announced in Michigan thus far. Jean Treacy of Marquette and Dwain Reynolds of Midville are seeking the joint nomination of the Green Party of Michigan for 1st District Representative in Congress and State Board of Education respectively. The Socialist Party\u2019s ticket of Brian Moore for President and Stewart Alexander for Vice President is exploring options to qualify for the Michigan ballot this year and is filing for Official Write-In Status in Michigan as a back-up.\nErard notes that Ann Arbor voters elected multiple candidates of the Socialist Party-affiliated Human Rights Party to the City Council in 1972 and 1974, who introduced many of the radical and progressive policies Ann Arbor has been most well known for. \u201cMichigan voters are only more fed-up with being ignored by the major parties than they were in the early 70s\u201d Erard said. \u201cThis time we are prepared to make an even bigger splash than we did in 2006, and quite possibly, make it to the Capitol.\u201d\nErard\u2019s 2008 Campaign Website can be found at: http://www.erard2008.org",

        "raw_content": "What the abyss looked like\nPaul Kedrosky has dug this quote out of a Center for European Policy Studies report.\nThe K-10 annex of AIG\u2019s last annual report reveals that AIG had written coverage for over US$ 300 billion of credit insurance for European banks. The comment by AIG itself on these positions is: \u201c\u2026. for the purpose of providing them with regulatory capital relief rather than risk mitigation in exchange for a minimum guaranteed fee\u201d. AIG thus helped to organise regulatory arbitrage on a gigantic scale. A formal default of AIG would have had a devastating impact on banks in Europe. This explains why AIG\u2019s problems had sent shock waves through the share prices of European banks. For the time being the US Treasury has saved, inter alia, the European banking system, but given that AIG is to be liquidated European banks now have to scramble to find other ways of obtaining the \u2018regulatory capital relief\u2019 they appear to need urgently.\nIf you remember the interview with Germany\u2019s finance minister that we quoted yesterday, you will remember that he said\u2026\nIn the case of Lehman, the US government wanted to send a signal to the market that they are not prepared to offer a bailout under any circumstances. In the case of AIG, we had direct talks at the G7 level and implored them to stabilize the situation. An AIG bankruptcy would have triggered shock waves around the world. We were all staring into the abyss at that point.\nI think Mr. Kedrosky has helped illuminate what the abyss looked like.\nFrom P.J. O\u2019Rourke\u2026.\nI have, of all the inglorious things, a malignant hemorrhoid. What color bracelet does one wear for that? And where does one wear it? And what slogan is apropos? Perhaps that slogan can be sewn in needlepoint around the ruffle on a cover for my embarrassing little doughnut buttocks pillow.\nYou never know when you many need to know the answers to those questions. Sadly, O\u2019Rourke does not provide the answers. Instead, he offers up some really bad philosophy.\nYou will see more of this\nStrache, 39, led his Freedom party to 18% of the vote in an early general election on Sunday. His former boss and mentor-turned-rival, J\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00b6rg Haider, single-handedly steered his breakaway far-right Movement for Austria\u2019s Future to 11% \u2013 meaning that almost one in three Austrians who voted opted for the extreme right.\n\u201cA unique case among the western democracies,\u201d said Profil yesterday as Viennese liberals reeled from the results of an election that put the far right comfortably ahead of the mainstream conservatives of the Austrian People\u2019s party and neck-and-neck with the Social Democrats, who narrowly won the election.\nIt will be very difficult for any party to muster a parliamentary majority. The only options are for the Social Democrats to invite Strache into government, or to form another \u201cgrand coalition\u201d with the Christian Democrats. Such a coalition collapsed in June after 18 months in office, and another attempt could fire a bigger protest vote for Strache next time.\nThe Freedom party last stunned Europe in 1999, when Haider led it to second place with 27% of the vote, and a place in government. On Sunday, under Strache, the combined far right did even better, while the big parties did much worse.\nI can\u2019t tell you how many times I have seen people use the unrevised TIC data to argue that the US is not all that dependent on foreign central banks. Always remember that they don\u2019t know what they are talking about. From Brad Setser\u2026.\nThe scale of these revisions raises questions about a lot analysis that suggested that official inflows weren\u2019t a major reason why Treasury yields remained low in 2005 and 2006. That analysis was based on the observation that yields didn\u2019t rise after official flows \u2013 as reported in the TIC data \u2014 fell. Alas, it turns out that official flows didn\u2019t actually fall. The TIC data just didn\u2019t capture most of the flow \u2014 as China and the Gulf tend to buy through London. After the survey revisions, the US now thinks official flows for 2006 topped official flows in 2004.\nWhat of the last four quarters? The US data indicates that official creditors provided the US with about $400b in financing \u2014 less than in 2006. It also indicates that \u201cprivate\u201d investors abroad bought about $250b of Treasury bonds (including short-term bills). If you believe that private investors abroad bought that many Treasuries, I have a lot of formerly triple AAA CDOs stuffed with subprime debt that I want to sell you at par.\nThe US Treasury made the direction of the likely revisions to the data totally clear in the last survey. It noted that the survey indicated that ALL of the increase in foreign holdings of Treasuries and most of the increase in foreign holdings of Agencies between June 2006 and June 2007 had come from the official sector (see p. 16 of the .pdf/ p. 14 of the udnerlying document). There isn\u2019t good reason to think this has changed dramatically. If I add \u201cprivate\u201d purchases of Treasuries to the official flow data, the total is roughly equal to the current account deficit.\nThis post from Calculated Risk has this chart. Give it a good look. That line can\u2019t go straight up for long without consequences.\nBailout Failed For Now\nYou probably already know that the bail out failed to pass and why it failed. But if you have been living under a rock, read this post by Naked Capitalism. Read the comments. They will make you sick. Take this one for example\u2026\nThere is simply a segment of the population that does not know better or does not care about the economic well-being of their families or other families. Whether for reasons for morality (what is caused by \u201cdebt\u201d cannot be saved by \u201cdebt\u201d) or schedenfreude or ignorance or indifference,\u2026The house republicans are the voice for this segment\u2026somehow they have to be bribed or cajoled or coerced into going along\u2026otherwise, in the words of one of America\u2019s greatest leaders, \u201cthis suckers going down\u2026\u201d.\nThe real divide over this issue is not between Republicans or Democrats. Rather it it is between the coastal elites who have had it good for many years and the poor blue collar suckers who have been watching their living standards stagnate for those same years. I have seen blue collar folk who never cared much for politics getting in touch with their representatives over this bail out. They simply can\u2019t understand why none of the industries that they depended on were worth a bail out, but people who earned a hundred times what they make are being bailed out right and left.\nBut the white collar people with big money tied up in the markets are frothing at the mouth. They would shoot their own grandma to get this thing passed. The only reason they can see for people to oppose this bill is stupidity and ignorance. And that is a shooting offense when their money is at stake.\nAs usual, those with money are going to win in the end, but it is going leave a bad taste for a long time.\nIts all America's fault\nFrom Spiegel comes this interview with Germany\u2019s finance minister\u2026\nSPIEGEL: And is the United States completely to blame?\nSteinbr\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00bcck: The source and focus of the problems are clearly in the United States. There are many causes. After 9/11, a great deal of cheap money was tossed into the market. Apparently some of that money went to people with poor creditworthiness. This led to the growth of the real estate bubble. The banks embarked on a race over profit margins. Then speculation spun completely out of control\u2026\nSPIEGEL: \u2026which also benefited German banks for a while.\nSteinbr\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00bcck: But they didn\u2019t invent these transactions. The stokers on the financial markets were responsible for that.\nSPIEGEL: And how is the US patient doing now?\nSteinbr\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00bcck: It\u2019s in the ICU with pneumonia. This means that here in Europe, we can at least expect to get a bad cold. The US patient lacked legislation, a regulatory framework that could have helped avoid this development. That\u2019s the key issue for me. The financial products became more and more complex, but the rules and safeguards didn\u2019t change. I don\u2019t know anyone in New York or London who would have asked for a stronger regulatory framework 18 months ago. They were always saying: The market regulates everything. What a historic mistake!\nSPIEGEL: Your US counterpart, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, began by essentially nationalizing the two US mortgage giants, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. But then he allowed investment bank Lehman Brothers to plunge in bankruptcy before saving the insurance giant AIG with an $85 billion (\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c2\u00ac58 billion) bailout. This doesn\u2019t exactly look like a clear course of action.\nSteinbr\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00bcck: In the case of Lehman, the US government wanted to send a signal to the market that they are not prepared to offer a bailout under any circumstances. In the case of AIG, we had direct talks at the G7 level and implored them to stabilize the situation. An AIG bankruptcy would have triggered shock waves around the world. We were all staring into the abyss at that point.\nI have to laugh when I read stuff like this. It is like the people in the US blaming Saudi Arabia for all the evils in the world. Granted, Saudi Arabian money funds a lot of Islamic extremists, but it is the western (and in particular the US\u2019s) addiction to oil that makes them rich.\nIf it was so obvious that stronger regulation was needed why didn\u2019t German regulators stop German banks from buying the crap? Most of the biggest buyers of US crap were banks owned by the German government. Furthermore, any government that allows a mere 6 billion euros of equity to support a 400 billion euro balance sheet does not have alot of room to talk trash.\nI doubt I will find this as funny when a billion plus Chinese decide that their economic problems are all America\u2019s fault.\nIts Europe's Turn\nA British Bank called Bradford & Bingley has gone down. From The Telegraph\u2026\nB&B\u2019s \u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a324 billion of savings and its 200 branches is likely be sold to a rival or rivals. Spain\u2019s Santander, which owns Abbey and is in the process of buying Alliance & Leicester, was in talks about possibly taking over deposits and branches, an industry source said.\nBut rivals are reluctant to take ownership of B&B\u2019s book of \u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a341 billion pounds of mortgages \u2013 representing 3.4 percent of UK mortgages \u2013 as many of them are higher risk buy-to-let and self-certified, which have a far higher chance of defaulting. More than eight out of ten of B&B\u2019s mortgages are either buy-to-let or self-certified.\nHypo bank in Germany has big problems. From Naked Capitalism\u2026.\nThe prospect of an almost-as-big-as-Lehman bankruptcy evidently focused the mind of the officialdom. The providers are private firms, but one imagines, a la the LTCM rescue, that they were given a big prod by regulators It appears the amount of the facility is sufficient to refund maturing paper, but likely falls short of the end of troubles for this highly geared bank (a mere 6 billion euros of equity supporting a 400 billion euro balance sheet).\nFortis Bank (which is based in Belgium) has big problems. As Spiegel Reports\u2026.\nThe news came one day after the Dutch, Belgian and Luxembourg governments announced an \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c2\u00ac11.2 billion bailout of troubled Fortis bank, which saw a partial nationalization of the company. Fortis is Belgium\u2019s largest bank, and the government in Brussels is providing \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c2\u00ac4.7 billion for a 49 percent stake in the company\u2019s Belgian operations. Luxembourg is providing \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c2\u00ac2.5 billion for 49 percent of Fortis Bank Luxembourg, and the Dutch are investing \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c2\u00ac4 billion for 49 percent of Fortis Holding Netherlands.\nWhat Have The Pirates Captured Now?\nA tense standoff has developed in waters off Somalia over an Iranian merchant ship laden with a mysterious cargo that was hijacked by pirates.\nSomali pirates suffered skin burns, lost hair and fell gravely ill \u201cwithin days\u201d of boarding the MV Iran Deyanat. Some of them died.\nAndrew Mwangura, the director of the East African Seafarers\u2019 Assistance Programme, told the Sunday Times: \u201cWe don\u2019t know exactly how many, but the information that I am getting is that some of them had died. There is something very wrong about that ship.\u201d\nThe vessel\u2019s declared cargo consists of \u201cminerals\u201d and \u201cindustrial products\u201d. But officials involved in negotiations over the ship are convinced that it was sailing for Eritrea to deliver small arms and chemical weapons to Somalia\u2019s Islamist rebels.\nLife just keeps getting curiouser and curiouser.\nEdit: The Long War Journal has more.\nThree Strange Maps\nStrange Maps is a good blog to keep an eye on. Most of the maps on that blog are so ridiculous they are of interest only those people who have a fetish for maps (though as a web site that has its own map maybe we should not cast stones). But amongst the dross there are quite a few gems.\nFor example, this map charting how people ask for a \u201csoda\u201d is pretty fascinating.\nAlso worth checking out is this map comparing the population of China\u2019s various provinces to the population of various nations.\nAnd last but not least is this map of genetic variation in Europe.",

        "title": "Earth's magnetic field is collapsing and the poles are about to switch",
        "raw_content": "Earth\u2019s magnetic field is collapsing and the poles are about to switch\nAs it turns out \u2013 according to studies\u2014 our planets magnetic field could flip in our lifetime. According to experts, the position of the South Pole has shifted and is not located precisely at Antarctica, the North Pole is also believed to be \u2018racing\u2019 across the Arctic Ocean.\nEarth\u2019s magnetic field appears to be collapsing which could severely damage our climate and WIPE OUT power grids across the world.\nOur planet\u2019s magnetic field exists because Earth has a massive \u2018ball of iron\u2019 at its core which is surrounded by an outer layer of molten metal.\nAs the earth\u2019s magnetic field varies over time, the positions of the north and south magnetic poles gradually change. The magnetic declination at a given location also changes over time. As it turns out a lot has changed in the last couple of hundred years, and to see what we are talking about visit NOAA and take a look at Historical Magnetic Declination.\nInterestingly, according to previous studies, Earth\u2019s magnetic field \u2013 which shields our planet from blasts of deadly solar radiation has dangerously weakened in the last couple of years.\nAccording to reports from the European Space Agency, the biggest weak spots seen in the magnetic field are located in the western hemisphere.\nExperts are unsure why the magnetic field is weakening but one of the MOST LIKELY reasons is that our planets magnetic poles are getting ready to flip said Rune Floberghagen, the ESA\u2019s Swarm mission manager.\nResearchers have concluded that the magnetic field had diminished at a rate of around five percent per century. However, new studies who that the magnetic field is weakening at an accelerated rate of five percent per decade \u2013meaning that it is deteriorating five times faster than previously believed.\nIf we take a look at the animation of secular variation in geomagnetic total intensity for the last 400 years, we will see that the magnetic field began weakening in 1600.\nAnimation of secular variation in geomagnetic total intensity for the last 400 years:\nFurthermore, the magnetic field weakened a staggering 10 percent from the 1800\u2019s to 2000.\nOk so\u2026 what would happen if it really flips?\nAccording to experts, if the pole switch does happen the entire planet and everything on it will become exposed to solar winds which could punch giant holes into the ozone layer which in turn could have a devastating effect on mankind. If the planet\u2019s Magnetosphere starts collapsing power grids could collapse, the weather would abruptly change and humans would have serious health risks.\nAccording to reports from the European Space Agency, as of 2014, the magnetic field is continuing to weaken rapidly. With the help of SWARM, scientists have obtained unprecedented insights into the complex workings of Earth\u2019s magnetic field. Reports show that the general trend of the magnetic field is weakening and the most dramatic declines are present over the Western Hemisphere.\nThe latest measurements also confirm the movement of magnetic North towards Siberia. It is believed that the magnetic field is speeding away at a rate of about 40 miles per year.\nBut what is most terrifying is perhaps a study that warns that magnetic reversals lead to extinction events. The highlights of the study indicate:\nGeomagnetic field reversal substantially weakens the protection for the atmosphere.\nSolar wind energizes more oxygen ions to escape when geomagnetic field is weakened.\nOxygen escape may explain the drop of atmospheric level during mass extinction.\nThe causal relation between reversal and mass extinction should be \u201cmany-to-one\u201d.\nThe simulated oxygen escape rate based on knowledge of Mars support our hypothesis.\nFurthermore, it is believed that magnetic reversals can be responsible for floods of biblical proportions as you can see in the video below:\nTags earth magnetic declination magnetic field\nConnie Misiolek\nWhy is it that I can NEVER read EWA news! I click the link. the page shows up, but no article\u2026EVER\nWiki Mahal\nu must turn off ur ad blocker for this site\nLeslee Naron\nI have my ad blocker on and I could read it.\nThank you for answering Wiki\u2026\nKarazzzz\nCouldn\u2019t read it either so I found this one: https://uanews.arizona.edu/story/theres-no-reason-flip-over-earths-magnetic-field\nPhuphuphnik Q. Phuphuphnik\nThere is more going on that just Van Allen Belts moving on Earth. Many planets in our solar system are experiencing major environmental changes. So, obviously its the CO2 content in Earth\u2019s atmosphere causing it . . . Right? Anyone tells you that you get as far from them as you can because they are going to steal every dime in your pocket.\nLibrain\nPlease provide references to this claim, Curtis. What planets are experiencing environmental changes? What kind of changes? What makes you think they are in any way linked to the proven connection between CO2 and climate change? It is perhaps Aliens? That would explain how something can be connected between planets. Or maybe it\u2019s all just a conspiracy being sold to us by Big Solar, and only a small handful of plucky oil billionaires have the courage to stand up to the overwhelming majority of scientists in the field and fight for the truth, no matter how many billions of dollars they may make from it?\nhttp://www.iflscience.com/space/most-extreme-weather-solar-system/\nhttp://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/may/31/mars-also-undergoing-climate-change-ice-age-retrea/\nhttp://consciouslifenews.com/solar-system-climate-changing-earth/1123235/#\nNASA has some data out too.\nWell, that\u2019s better than the standard fare, but still hardly proof of anything. Let\u2019s go through them, starting with #2.\nThe IFLS link has absolutely nothing in it to back up your claims. It shows that other planets/satelites have atmospheres, mostly atmospheres that are drastically different from Earth\u2019s, and gives a brief rundown of these atmospheres, but nothing more.\nThe WP article states that Mars is seeing some warming of its climate, so yes that is at least a thing. But that warming is fairly minor, and already attributed to a known phenomenon. As it says, most experts in the field consider it coincidence. We know about the effect that is causing warming on Mars, and we know it occurs here on Earth, neither of these are in any way new revelations. I assure you, this has been taken into account in the calculations. We know exactly what that effect looks like on our climate, and what we\u2019re seeing is not it. There is a reason why \u201cThe consensus view is that the warming trend on the planets is coincidental and that climate change on Earth can be attributed primarily to increased greenhouse-gas emissions in the atmosphere.\u201d (Also, the follow the link to the NASA page and it will mention that the climate on Mars changes over hundreds of thousands of years \u2013 Earth\u2019s climate has changed significantly in the last 50 years. The difference in scale is, frankly, scary.)\nThe Conscious Life News link\u2026 ugh, where to begin. There\u2019s a bunch of random snippets that talk about other planets that appear to be undergoing some sort of warming, but with nothing to tie them together it remains just a bunch of random snippets. The Mars one refers back to the same controversial dude the previous link cited, the one whose results have been dismissed by the community as a whole. More on him next. Jupiter is undergoing climate change? Read closer, the proposal is that the vortices in Jupiter\u2019s atmosphere are being eroded and will eventually collapse altogether, which will cause a temporary rise in temperature, which will cause the vortices to begin again. An interesting cycle, but not one that shows the planet as a whole is warming long term, and certainly not one that has anything to do with Earth\u2019s climate at all. Utterly irrelevant. What else\u2026 Pluto is far too little studied to be making any claims about, Triton\u2019s warming has two possible causes, neither of which are in any way linked to anything else, Saturn\u2019s storm is unremarkable and still no sign it\u2019s being caused by extra-planetary forces\u2026 yeah, there\u2019s nothing here.\nMost of this is someone grabbing the headline and a few lines from the piece, but not actually fully understanding what is being said. Most of them are perfectly explained by natural phenomena on the relevant planet. Spoiler: any planet that has an atmosphere is probably going to have variations in that atmosphere that follow a set pattern. This is called \u201cclimate\u201d. The only thing so far that even hints at any sort of system-wide connection that would link such utterly unrelated things as Jupiter\u2019s wind patterns and the colour of Triton\u2019s ice\u2026 is the one about Mars. So let\u2019s get to that one now, shall we?\nThe National Geographic article talks about one particular individual (Abdussamatov) who has made this extraordinary claim. That wobble\u2019s in Earth\u2019s axis (Milankovic cycles \u2013 natural cycles which occur on the 20,000-100,000 year timescale) have actually been mis-understood this whole time, and are responsible for almost all of the recent warming that the globe has seen. This theory relies heavily upon things like the greenhouse effect not existing, despite it being abundantly obvious that it does. This can be observed on Venus, replicated in laboratory conditions, and is essential in the history of life on Earth. Abdussamatov is being ridiculed by reputable scientists, and rightly so. His theory is not supported by even the briefest of comparisons to actual evidence.\nSo, in summary Curtis, you have proved nothing. The fact that other planets have climates of one form or another proves absolutely nothing about Earth\u2019s climate being effected by extra-planetary forces. You are simply peddling conspiracy theory garbage.\nI could not find the specific references I was looking for, but perhaps you have better tools with which to search. Over the last six months I had read several articles about weather changes on Saturn, Neptune and Jupiter. There was one specific mention of changes to the hexagonal storm on Saturn\u2019s north pole. The other articles were reflecting gathered data that was significantly different than data from previous probes. I do not recall any specifics about the proposed reason for the changes, including that it may be a natural cyclic circumstance. However, there were significant changes to the environment on more than one planet in the Solar System.\nConcerning changes to the weather on Planet Earth . . . there is a tremendous volume of data that must be analyzed IN CONTEXT. From tree rings to ice core samples, and actual accurate recent weather data recorded in context that can be drawn upon to look at HiStorical data. The \u2018Hockey Stick\u2019 exist, but has been construed as being IN FRONT of the CO2 increase in the environment. THAT is a fabrication. The real scientist that do real science know different, and can prove it with data, not scare everyone into making them millionaires (like carbon credits in Europe) with their hype, or scare them to draw the \u2018desired conclusions\u2019 or their government funding will be pulled.\nYeah, see you\u2019re mixing up two completely different things. You\u2019re seeing that other planets have weather, and thinking that this has anything to do with Earth. It doesn\u2019t. Absolutely nothing at all. Many of the reasons Earth goes through natural climate changes are phenomena that exist on other planets as well, and cause those planets to go through similar natural changes. But there is absolutely nothing, not even the slightest thing, that can be inferred about our climate from some changes to a particular freaky storm on a gas giant \u2013 a planet so completely different from ours that it\u2019s difficult to even comprehend how dissimilar our weather and climate patterns are.\nFurthermore, most of the examples you gave, we\u2019ve identified the cause for the changing climate, and can say with absolute certainty that it is not the same thing as is happening on Earth. Comparing the two is on par with suggesting that a manned mission to the sun would be safe as long as you go at night.\nYou may have read half a dozen articles, but this doesn\u2019t make you an expert in the field. Certainly not enough of an expert to go telling a climate scientist how to do their job. And that\u2019s exactly what you\u2019re trying to do here. You\u2019re saying that REAL scientists know different and can prove it with data. But they haven\u2019t. In thirty years, no-one has been able to do so. The best you can manage is a crackpot Russian dude who\u2019s theory relies on ignoring an effect that demonstrably exists. Why is that, I wonder? Perhaps you are not really in a position to be judging who is and is not a REAL scientist?\nIf you knew anything about scientists, or mining companies, you would realise the sheer idiocy of looking at a bunch of billionaire oil executives, and a bunch of scientists who spend half their time working as university professors, and accusing only the latter group of being in it for the money.\nYou will certainly find published scientists who are crazier than your average coconut. You will certainly find published scientists who are willing to sell their morals and publish whatever you want them to publish. But you will also find a MUCH larger group of scientists who are in it for the science. People who will not put their career in jeopardy \u2013 because if they are ever caught, they will never work in the field again. And given that you are required to show your working at every stage, it\u2019s not actually that hard to get caught. It might take five years, maybe ten, but you will be stripped of position, awards, rank, and reputation, and no-one will ever hire you again. Worse has been done to those found guilty of the lesser crime of plagiarism.\nFundamentally, you are claiming that 97% of a particular field is utterly corrupt. That is a simply mind-boggling claim. Climate scientists have been in agreement for about 3 decades now. In that time, not one person has come to the media with any kind of proof that, while every single other branch of science is perfectly fine, the one branch that deals with climate science is almost completely corrupt. The majority of scientists I know (and I know a few, since I spent the better part of a decade studying and working in the field) would sell their first born before they sold their morals. For Geology graduates (like me), coal, oil and gas are some of the least desirable areas, even though they are some of the highest paying, because scientists are just not in it for the money. They are driven to become scientists because they want to discover things, to learn things, to research new ideas, to find out how everything works. To suggest that this applies to all scientists *except* those who end up in climate science is frankly insulting. Insulting to all the actual scientists who have spend years of their life studying these things, insulting to the clean energy initiatives that have spent years making far less money than they could if they simply supported the mining companies, and frankly insulting to your intelligence.\nIf you\u2019re going to claim that the entire field of climate science is irrevocably corrupted and has been for 30 years, and expect me to simply believe it, then I\u2019m going to call bullshit. You have nothing to support this claim other than a mining magnate\u2019s desire that it be true. You have drunk the cool aid my friend. When it came down to a war between people who study a thing, and people who profit from it, you chose to believe those who profit from it know better, and those who study it are in it for the money. If you can\u2019t see the cognitive dissonance there, I\u2019m not sure what else I can say to you that you will not dismiss as the words of a paid shill. I am a broke, unemployed geology graduate who moved out of the field almost immediately. I assure you I have no financial gain here, but I do have the knowledge required to analyse the data correctly. If that sounds like a paid shill to you, then you are truly a lost cause.\nI tell you what . . . I will stick with the Nobel Laureate\u2019s analysis, and let you believe what you want. Experience is a science too. Worked with the Aerographers Mates on more than one ocean, and this science is not that much Black Magic that all the Climate Change people make it out to be. The planet has been warmer before in HiSTory, and we have that recorded in various forms in the geologic, ice, and tree-ring records. Even the chemistry in the ice in the core samples that go thousands of feet down (read many years back in time) in the ice in Antarctica. They paint a pretty good picture.\nAre you saying that you actually believed my comment that \u201cObviously CO2 content in Earths atmosphere was causing the changes in climate on other planets\u201d?!?!?! That was a comment to demonstrate the very fallacy you point out above. The only common denominator that can effect every planet in the solar system comes from the Sun, or some other source that effects all the planets at once. The majority of climate changes on this planet are driven by the Sun and water vapor in the atmosphere. These mechanisms are also affecting other planets in the solar system. If canaries in cages around the room all died, it was something in the environment that effected all of them at once. Not the poison I put in one water dish. With Orcas or Porposes it might be different because there is a relationship that involves awareness of the other in community (family). Not so with the planets.\nThe few items I mentioned are not the only indicators in the solar system, and the solar system has a common denominator . . . Sol.\nThat\u2019s\u2026 so far from what I was saying it\u2019s almost funny.\nOf course the CO2 content in Earth\u2019s atmosphere isn\u2019t causing a reduction in storms on Jupiter. That\u2019s ludicrous. That\u2019e even more ludicrous than what you\u2019re suggesting is actually going on, which is an impressive feat, I assure you.\nLet\u2019s have a look at your canaries, shall we?\nFirst off, the canaries have not all died, you are simply cherry picking the ones that have, and ignoring the ones that haven\u2019t. Europa has shown no signs of warming, Saturn has shown no signs of warming, Titan has shown no signs of warming\u2026 the list goes on. If the sun was affecting Earth and Mars, then why is it not affecting Europa?\nSecondly, let\u2019s look at the dead canaries individually, rather than simply noting that they are dead and then assuming that there is nothing more to be gained from studying their corpses. We appear to have one that has died from heat exhaustion, one that has frozen, one that has a tumour on its neck the size of a golf ball, and one with an arrow in its side. You are suggesting that all four of these, including the one with an arrow through it, are caused by the same natural cause. Have you ever seen the Monty Python dead parrot skit? Yeah, that\u2019s you. Insisting that arrows are covered by \u201cnatural causes\u201d.\nThirdly, the comparison to dead canaries is not appropriate, as with most of these things you have linked to the changes in the climate are in no way a sign of an unhealthy planet. The changes have been fully explained, and have nothing to do with the sun.\nFinally, how fucking basic do you think climate scientists are? Like, do you actually think they\u2019re all sitting around staring at the sun and wondering why it is so bright? Do you genuinely think you\u2019re the first person to suggest that maybe the sun might be warming up the planet? Trust me, you\u2019re not that special. The sun warming theory has been suggested, and there\u2019s a small number of scientists who support it (or at least, believe that it accounts for 40-50% of the planet\u2019s warming, rather than only 10% as the internationally accepted model claims). But the *overwhelming majority* of people in the field looked at this claim, measured it, and found it did not match the results seen. I assure you, this is no more a genius level revelation to climate scientists than \u201cuse magnets\u201d is to physicists explaining why perpetual motions machines can\u2019t work. Just because you don\u2019t know why it\u2019s wrong, doesn\u2019t make it any less so.\nThis theory has been examined, and discarded. You are welcome to cling to a defunct relic if you like, but don\u2019t drag the rest of humanity down with you.\n*sigh* I think the worst part about this is that people like you get to vote. You create vague hypotheses that you think support your position, but only show how little you understand the subject (akin to things like \u201cJet fuel doesn\u2019t melt steel beams!\u201d). You stick with the nobel laureate\u2019s analysis because it supports your pre-conceived biases, nothing more. How can I tell? You cherry pick for things that support your position, and ignore anything that doesn\u2019t.\nhttps://qz.com/444787/a-group-of-nobel-laureates-have-signed-a-declaration-calling-for-urgent-action-on-climate-change/\nBy my count the current score is 36-1. Your move.\nWell, I\u2019ve seen steel burn and it takes on a whole new perspective when you\u2019re standing on it in the middle of the ocean at the time.\nWhat part of . . . \u2018solar energy effects the weather on all planets in the same solar system\u2019 . . . don\u2019t you understand ? . . and come back with \u2018all planets have their own weather systems\u2019 seems to be \u2018creat[ing] vague hypotheses that you think support your position\u2019. Of course all planets have their own weather systems, and if you think that the compendium of understanding of what the effects on \u2018more energy going into any given example of those disparate weather systems\u2019 is well understood, is beyond me, and most of mankind.\nNobel qualified laureates being aghast at the thought at the use of nuclear weapons is hardly germane to this discussion. Now if that same group in complete agreement signed an agreement recognizing that CO2 is driving climate change on planet Earth, were your link, it might have made a better argument. When the best these August Scientist can do is state: \u201cThe report concludes that anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases are the likely cause of the current global warming of the Earth\u201d then I am not impressed. I want to see data, and using the scientific method . . . I want to see something that is testable and verifiable. When THAT exist there is NO \u2018likely\u2019!\nDid\u2026 did you not actually read the link? That\u2019s EXACTLY what they did. The scientists signing an agreement against the use of nuclear weapons was a completely different set of scientists, used only as a backdrop for the current agreement. Go back and read it again.\nAs for wanting to see data using the scientific method, what you saw is the result of exactly that. There is ALWAYS a \u2018likely\u2019 in the scientific method. It is \u2018likely\u2019 the evolution by natural selection is the driving force behind speciation. It is \u2018likely\u2019 that gravity exists. If you want absolutes, go into maths. When a group of scientists say that the likely cause of the current global warming is CO2 emissions, they mean that they have tried to prove that it is not, and failed. Repeatedly. Over the course of three decades. Thousands of reports testing for different things in different ways have time and time again concluded that CO2 is probably causing global warming. The chances of any one report being wrong is generally in the vicinity of 1-5% (below 5% and it doesn\u2019t get published as a positive result). The chance of any two results both being wrong is therefore generally somewhere between 0.01-0.25%. Just three takes us to a maximum of 0.0125% chance, and ten is a whopping 9.77\u00d710^-12%.\nNow consider that there have been thousands of reports on the topic. Those are the odds you\u2019re playing with: a percentage best described in scientific notation. You ask for science, but you don\u2019t even know how to recognise it when you see it. Stop pretending to be an expert on this topic.\nAs for solar energy effecting all planets in the solar system, I have already responded to this. We can observe the solar energy being emitted from Sol, we can observe the weather changes happening on various planets. We put these two together, and they do not add up. The changes we are seeing do not follow any particular pattern, and they do not match any change in the sun. Hypothesis discarded.\nI DID read the link. As for recogniZing real data, I can do that too.\nYour finger seems to have slipped. You must have leaned on the shift key while typing the acceptable alternative spelling of \u201crecognising\u201d.\nThanks, sincerely.\n\u201cBut there is absolutely nothing, not even the slightest thing, that can be inferred about our climate from some changes to a particular freaky storm on a gas giant \u2013 a planet so completely different from ours that it\u2019s difficult to even comprehend how dissimilar our weather and climate patterns are.\u201d Are you serious? If any amount of significant change in radiation coming from the sun is experienced by the solar system, there is no body of evident that would even suggest that it could not (notce I didn not say would not) effect all systems, save those that do not have an atmosphere, and there could still be an effect there due to increased heating of the crust over time. We still have to stick to the scinetific method, not bones, rattles and \u2018I wish it was that way\u2019, or \u2018if its this way it supports my suposition or theory\u2019. We don\u2019t have Star Trek Science and the 24th Century database yet.\nJames B. Willit\nThis is what happened to Mars except that the super caldera on Mars ( like our yellow stone) blew up into Olympus Mons and ejected the core. The moons of Mars are ejected matter that did not escape or fall back down , the iron of the core did however rain down onto the surface of Mars and the solar winds stripped away the remaining atmosphere,,, and Vol-ah the red planet. call me crazy.\nNorman Alan Perry\nGreat read\u2026.Vlatko Vedral\u2019s book \u201cDecoding Reality\u201d.\nhttp://msdiagnosed.blogspot.com Adaline\nIt is well known that Venus has been much brighter in the last few years.\nClimate Change in the Solar System\nhttps://airandspace.si.edu/stories/editorial/climate-change-solar-system\nRUSSIAN SCIENTIST SAYS THE SOLAR SYSTEM IS MOVING INTO A NEW ENERGY \u201cZONE\u201d THAT IS TRANSFORMING THE MAGNETIC FIELDS OF THE PLANETS.\nhttp://www.awaken.cc/awaken/pagesE/library/ePlanetChanges.html\nEntire solar system is heating up!

        "raw_content": "From the beginning there was trouble. After my first appointment I started spotting, so my OB put me on progesterone. I thought everything would be ok after that and was really looking forward to all of my future doctor appointments. We were filed with so much hope. One night I had a dream, well nightmare. I had given birth to my baby, but the nurse had very quickly taken him away and started running down the hall. I screamed, \u201cShe\u2019s stealing my baby!\u201d I tried to jump out of the hospital bed but another nurse held me down. She looked at me and said, \u201cShe\u2019s not stealing your baby. Your baby is dead.\u201d I woke up in a panic and told my husband about my nightmare. He told me it was just a dream and I was overreacting. I called my mom and a few other people. I needed to hear as many people as I could say everything was going to be ok.\nFast forward to my 16 week appointment. Everything had been going great with my pregnancy so far. We went in and the doctor came in and listened to the baby\u2019s heartbeat. She stopped and looked at me and said, \u201cAre you feeling any movement?\u201d I replied, \u201cYes.\u201d She said, \u201cWell, baby sounds good.\u201d There was this strange look in her eyes. I wasn\u2019t sure what, but maybe like she thought there could possibly be something wrong. I blew it off, of course. I was trying to be positive. About a week before our scheduled gender ultrasound, I told my husband, \u201cSomething isn\u2019t right. I feel like there\u2019s something wrong.\u201d Once again I was told it was all in my head, and everything would be fine.\nMay 23, 2011 I woke up to get ready for my doctor\u2019s appointment. Today we would find out if we were having a boy or a girl. At the doctor\u2019s office they let my son put the gel on my belly. The ultrasound tech looked for a minute and then said, \u201cThe doctor will be in to talk to you in a minute.\u201d That\u2019s when they told us there was no heartbeat and they didn\u2019t know why. I collapsed and my little boy started to cry uncontrollably. My husband was in shock. They took me to labor and delivery.\nThirteen hours later at 6:36am on May,24, 2011, there he was. My little angel Landyn. They told me he passed because of a cord accident. He had twisted his cord three times, cutting off blood flow from the placenta. I blamed myself, because a few days prior to that I had scooted our couch across the room trying to rearrange. My doctor, the nurses, most of everyone kept telling me it wasn\u2019t my fault, but even now sometimes I struggle with regret and wonder what I could have done differently.\nI have gotten so many mixed reactions from people, some of them family. I\u2019ve been told to just get over it, you\u2019ll have more kids, you\u2019re young! My son has been referred to as \u201cthe miscarriage\u201d. It hurts so bad\u2026no matter what stage of loss you\u2019re at, you just need support, not advice from people who\u2019ve never been through it. Just someone to say \u2018I don\u2019t understand and I\u2019m not going to try to, but let me hug you and you can cry on my shoulder.\u2019 We now have our rainbow baby, but she doesn\u2019t replace Landyn in anyway. No matter how many children you had before or after your loss the fact is you wanted THAT child. I hope that I can help someone with my story and inspire some hope.\nYou can contact Jennyfer at J.lruble@ymail.com.\nWe too had a son on August 17, 2011 who was born still due to a cord accident. He had 2 knots in his cord and I still wonder if I did something wrong.\nHello, Jennyfer,\nJust wanted to express that my heart is with you. Your sentiments at the end of your story so closely echo my own; I am sending you hugs from afar.\nI am so sorry to hear, I am 20 weeks right now, I know that once you see the baby on the ultrasound, it is that baby you want. It is the exact DNA and essence that only that baby will ever hold. I know these babies are never really lost, I know you\u2019ll see him again.\nJennyfer, I\u2019ve been searching the web for women who understand. The baby I lost is the baby I want. I went into preterm labor & delivered my daughter stillborn one week ago today at 16 wks. It is the worst thing I have ever gone through & the sense of loss is overwhelming. It\u2019s physical, I feel empty & incomplete. Having 2 small boys made coming home empty-handed & broken -hearted bearable. Thank you for sharing.\nJen Wash says:\nI went through a similar situation. I was 38 weeks pregnant and my son stopped moving. I went to the hospital and no heartbeat they suspected a cord accident. I delivered my first child Drew Michael on April 24,2005. and he was perfect but a knot in the cord. My husband and I were horrified. I never heard of a knot in the cord. I miss him. I did cry a river. I still get upset if I think about the comments people made. I had Max the following year and Vivi the year after I was a nervous wreck during the pregnancies. I am glad to hug my children. When I left Drew at the hospital, I just didn\u2019t realize I would not hug him again. my kids really love Drew and that helps me. Happy Mother\u2019s Day I realize how much your dealing with.",

That very same day I had contractions and went to the ER. When I got there my water broke and I began bleeding a lot. The doctor told me my baby could no longer survive without the water bag to protect it and that I had to have surgery to terminate the pregnancy due to the fact that I had a vertical cut on my uterus with my previous preemie baby ( my miracle child), and vaginal delivery would rupture my uterus. I never got to find out the gender nor did I get to name that baby.\nApril 2016 4 months into 3rd pregnancy, I had a miscarriage.\nOctober 2, 2016 [I was pregnant for the fourth time]. At 19 weeks and 4 days, contractions started and I went to the hospital immediately. The plan was to do a rescue cerclage if my contractions didn\u2019t continue the rest of the night. The next day my hopes were shot and my contractions kept coming and I was 1 cm dilated. At 11:35 a.m. I gave birth to my son. It was too late to do a surgery, so we took our chances with a vaginal delivery and it all went well except for the fact that I lost my son at 12:35 p.m. When he was born the doctors asked me if I wanted to hold him or if I wanted them to take him away. I wanted to hold him, love him, and pray for him while we still had the time to spend with him.\nMy husband couldn\u2019t handle to cut his umbilical cord, and didn\u2019t want to hold him but I made him hold our angel baby. I knew he would regret not being able to hold him while he was still alive, and I\u2019m glad I made him hold our baby. He died in his daddy/s arms, and I took him back to hold him. I placed him on my chest and kept singing a song I\u2019d always make him listen to while he was in my tummy, hoping and praying for some sort of miracle. Tons of questions [are] going on in my head. Why me? Is it me? What could I have done differently? Where is God when we need him the most? Why is he ignoring me and my prayers? October 14th we buried our angel baby in a cemetery called Baby Land. My mother-in-law had our bishop come over to give me a comfort blessing and all it did was help me sleep better at night. It wasn\u2019t until October 28th that I finally let go of all the emotions I was holding in, stress and frustration triggered it all.\nI went church Sunday and the talk helped me a lot. They talked about how we never understand why God works the way He does, but we have to trust that there is a blessing that will come out of it. He puts us through hardships to prepare us for whatever He has planned for us in the near future. He doesn\u2019t let us go through heartbreaks without giving us a blessing out of it. I\u2019m still waiting for redemption, but for now, I\u2019m okay. For now, I\u2019m focusing on me, letting my body heal physically emotionally, and mentally. Our babies were just too beautiful for Earth, and although they did not get to experience this painful yet magical place we call Earth, I like to believe they are in a much better, peaceful place. My favorite quote, \u201cThe road isn\u2019t paved with perfection, don\u2019t get lost in the journey, let the struggle help you discover who you really are.\u201d May our angels babies rest in love.

The kids were randomly paired up to work on placing 18 mathematical statements into appropriate columns: always true, sometimes true, and never true.\nThe students were really involved in the discussion and coming up with examples. They had to translate some of the statements into equations or inequalities and defend their answers. They learned to give counterexamples.ASN works for any math level (and could really be used in other subjects). The kids are comfortable working and having that math conversation with just one other person initially, then they build up the confidence to share their reasoning with the whole group later.\nI got this particular set of 18 from Swan and Ridgway. Sixth Sense has a set also.\nMax gets a pay raise of 30%. Jim gets a pay raise of 25%. So Max gets the bigger pay raise.\nWhen you cut a piece off a shape, you reduce its area and perimeter.\nIf you add the same number to the top and bottom of a fraction, the fraction gets bigger in value.\nIn a sale, every price was reduced by 25%.

Thank you so much for the kind words. Really happy that you\u2019ve found something useful here. ASN can be used any time during the year, completely dependent on the statements that you put in front of them. A good source for these might actually be your textbook. (See, they are not just good for making ramps and propping doors open :) ) Just change the questions you find in the textbook into statements and use them for ASN. Out of the 8 math practices, MP1 and MP3 loom largest for me, and ASN is a great way to get to kids to engage in MP3. We want to be \u201cgenerating thoughtful discussions and giving kids practice in justifying their thinking\u201d every day of the year.\nClaire Toland\nDo you have an answer key for this activity?\nKrizzle Dapito\nHi!

The proposed development will be a sustainable, mixed-use rental housing project for low and moderate income families that will benefit from access to the transit station, Temple University, and on-site community services.\nThe goal of the project was to provide a healthy living environment for residents through sustainable practices as well as cost savings through effective reduction in water and energy use. The building will be constructed with an environmentally responsible design that includes: an energy efficient building envelope and MEP systems; a green roof; photovoltaic solar panels; and the use of local, recyclable, and renewable materials. Paseo Verde has achieved LEED Platinum certification under LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED ND); it is the first LEED ND project in the country to achieve a Platinum rating.\nThe 206,000 square foot building consists of 120 rental units that include a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments with a range of tenant amenities. The apartments will open on to a series of landscaped terraces and green roofs for residents to enjoy. The building also includes approximately 30,000 square feet of ground floor retail and community service space, which will include a primary care facility operated by Public Health Management Corporation, a pharmacy, and supportive services provided by Asociaci\u00f3n Puertorrique\u00f1os en Marcha. 67 parking spaces will accommodate the residential portion of the development to encourage the use of public transportation.\nThe project utilized a combination of public financing sources from Federal, State, and City sources, including PHFA Low Income Housing Tax Credits, Federal Home Loan Bank AHP program, Office of Housing and Community Development (OHCD) Housing Trust Fund Program, and New Market Tax Credits.\n\u201cPaseo Verde represents another step toward Philadelphia becoming America's greenest city.

        "title": "Career Costs vs Rewards - Are You Sacrificing Too Much? - Financial Slacker",
        "raw_content": "Career Costs vs Rewards \u2013 Are You Sacrificing Too Much?\nHave you evaluated whether your career costs outweigh the rewards?\nYesterday, as I was watching the Dallas Cowboys beat the Washington Redskins for only their second victory in 17 attempts without starter Tony Romo, my viewing experience kept getting interrupted. My phone delivers updates from NFL Mobile and over the course of the afternoon, I received updates on player after player with injuries severe enough to keep them out the remainder of the game.\nIt\u2019s nothing new that football has more than its share of injuries. I have personal experience as a player starting around the age of eight up until eighteen. I saw fellow players with injuries ranging from bumps and bruises, to broken and dislocated bones, to torn ligaments, to a broken neck.\nThere is an expression that goes something like, \u201cdancing is a contact sport, while football is a collision sport.\u201d And as the bodies get bigger, stronger, and faster, those collisions get more and more violent.\nInjuries are a part of the sport. And at the professional level, the players go in knowing this. But they decide that the rewards of a career in professional football are worth the risks they take.\nWhich brings me to the point of today\u2019s article. What are you willing to risk or give up for your career? And what do you expect to gain in return for your sacrifices?\nYour Career Costs More than You Think\nWhile the rewards of your career are clear \u2013 money, benefits, enjoyment, prestige \u2013 there are many career costs that you pay for these rewards.\nHealth. In the case of football, the health risks are significant. Other careers that pay well also may have very high risk of injury or death. But for most of us, the health risks of our careers are stress, high blood pressure, and lack of time to exercise and eat well.\nTraffic. Most jobs require a commute of some sort. Whether you\u2019re driving, taking a bus, a train, or a plane, you may find that spending so much time in traffic builds frustration.\nTravel. Along those same lines, many careers require business travel. A few trips here and there may not be so bad and you might even find them enjoyable. But generally business travel is time-consuming and a hassle. And too much of it will again drain your energy.\nFamily time. Long hours spent in the office working takes away from time spent with your family. What\u2019s the cost of that sacrifice? Children that you don\u2019t know and who don\u2019t know you. A disconnected marriage. We all know people whose family life has suffered because of career demands.\nPersonal time. We all need time for ourselves. When you\u2019re pulled in too many directions by different competing forces, you start to feel the stress. You start questioning whether it\u2019s all worth it. And everything suffers.\nAre the Rewards Worth It?\nWhile most careers don\u2019t carry as significant a risk of severe injury as professional football, there are always career costs which require sacrifice in some form. And while most careers also don\u2019t have the financial rewards and prestige of professional football, you are always forced to decide whether these career costs are worth those rewards.\nI heard an interesting story the other day about Urban Meyer, the coach of the Ohio State University football team. Previously, coach Meyer was the head coach at the University of Florida. At the peak of his career, he left that position because football had overtaken his life. He spent all his time thinking and living football to the detriment of his health and family. And the only thing that saved him was getting away and figuring out a different approach.\nFinding the right balance that works for you not only improves yourself and your family life, it may also improve your work. We tend not to perform at our best when we\u2019re too stressed or preoccupied with other thoughts.\nFigure out what works and do whatever you need to get there.\nReaders, what are your career costs? Are you sacrificing too much? Did you reach that level and decide to make a change?\nPrevious Post: \u00ab Getting Promoted is Better than Getting a Raise\nNext Post: Spending Money is a Choice \u00bb\nThere is a certain amount I sacrifice right now, but it is still very much worth it as we near FI. For me it\u2019s a matter of getting out before the sacrifice becomes too big.\nThere\u2019s a point you reach when the sacrifice outweighs the benefits. Hopefully, when that happens you\u2019re in a position to step away.\nTeam CF says\nOn our path to financial independence the current sacrifice should be worth the long term benefits of freedom. It surely is a balancing act and we are constantly evaluating if it is still worth it. We actually are debating if one of us actually should stay home once the little one goes to school in 2017. In that scenario one of us would be home when she gets out of school. We have reached a point in our finances where this should be very much feasible, albeit delaying the ultimate point of financial independence for the greater good of the little one. Sacrifices, eh?\nWe went through the same evaluation when our first was born. And actually, Ms. FS had a letter of resignation written and ready to go. But instead, she floated the idea of working part-time from home. They agreed and she has been working from home since then. It\u2019s been a good way to stay working and still be around with the kids.\nWork to live or live to work? Work will always be secondary to me, and anything that I feel like I am sacrificing now is to build something long term for the future. I really hope it all pays off. At the moment I do 2 hours of commuting a day, but I use a lot of that time for blog writing and such. So it\u2019s not a total waste \ud83d\ude42\nThat\u2019s a big sacrifice. When I worked in Chicago, I knew many people that had a two-hour commute. Like you, they chose to use the time to work on various other projects, but it\u2019s still impressive.\nI used to tell those people that I commuted less than they did even though I was flying in every week. When you added up my travel time it was a little less than the 10 hours per week that they endured coming in five days per week.\nA good question to ask. What are we giving up for what we get?\nMy career has a few changes to increase the quality of life, each time, I gave up status and money for a better life. Non the less, I gave up a few years of FIRE\u2026 I now have to work longer to become FI. Actually, I am not sure FI is my real goal, Freedom is. That comes at different levels. I still have to pick mine.\nThat\u2019s my thinking as well. I am going to write more about this topic in a future post \u2013 Financial Independence vs Retirement vs Freedom.",

        "raw_content": "Saturdays, 10:30am\u201411:30am, in the Sanctuary.\nGentle Yoga is a form of physical and spiritual practice designed for beginning students and anyone who continues to get older every year. It focuses on three aspects of the body-flexibility (reaching and bending), core strength (spine and tummy) and balance (to prevent falls). It also emphasizes relaxation and proper breathing. All this in just one hour a week (what you do the rest of the week is up to you).\nGentle Yoga is led by Annie Foerster. Annie has been a yoga student for forty-two years and an instructor for thirty-seven years. She specializes in helping older students, young people and just about everyone in between.\nYou\u2019ll need a yoga mat, clothes that will bend with you and a willingness to try. If you have trouble getting down on the floor (or up, once you\u2019re down), you can do many of the postures from a chair. Here\u2019s the thing about yoga\u2014the benefits accrue in the trying, not in the achieving. Once you can do a posture, a good yoga teacher will make it harder for you by adding a new twist. So if you aren\u2019t trim and buff like the pictures in the yoga magazines, Gentle Yoga is for you. If you can\u2019t stand on one foot without toppling, Gentle Yoga is for you. If you can\u2019t bend and touch the floor, Gentle Yoga is definitely for you. If you have any questions, ask Annie ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

        "title": "Wearables Elvie, Wink, and Eva Get Intimate With Women's Bodies | Fortune",
        "raw_content": "Wearable Tech Gets Intimate With Women's Bodies\nWhen we think about wearables, most of us imagine the Apple Watch, or the fitness tracker FitBit\u2014hardware that is worn on our wrists. Of course, some companies have gotten more creative, with smart rings, necklaces that track your sleep, and clutches that double as phone speakers. But a new wave of wearables for women is going even further: inside our bodies.\n\u201cWhen people talk about the \u2018quantified self,\u2019 this is the final frontier of what can be tracked,\u201d says Tania Boler, co-founder and CEO of Chiaro, a women\u2019s wearable tech company. Chiaro\u2019s first product is Elvie, an exercise tracker for the pelvic floor, which Boler says is largely ignored and misunderstood. One in three women have pelvic floor problems, yet many are deterred from doing Kegel exercises.\n\u201cA lot of women know they need to do them, but they can\u2019t tell whether they\u2019re doing them correctly and they don\u2019t know if it\u2019s working,\u201d she explains. Linked to a smartphone app, Elvie can sense whether a woman is doing Kegels correctly and track her progress with the exercises.\nBoler\u2019s co-founder is Alexander Asseily, the chairman and founder of fitness tracker Jawbone. Asseily initially came on board as an investor, but later became a founder when he recognized the size of the market opportunity for wearables in the women\u2019s health space, Boler says. Boler puts the market for products to prevent accidental leakage\u2014one of the problems associated with a weak pelvic floor\u2014at $17 million. And that doesn\u2019t factor in women who are looking to have better sex or simply be healthier. The company has raised $3 million in funding since launching in August 2013, and includes Lars Rasmussen, co-founder of Google Maps, among its investors.\nThe Elvie, created by women's wearable tech company Chiaro, is a fitness tracker for the pelvic floor\nThe Elvie, created by women\u2019s wearable tech company Chiaro, is a fitness tracker for the pelvic floorPhotograph courtesy of Chiaro\nAnother major area of opportunity for women\u2019s health wearables is in reproductive health and fertility. One of the biggest players in the space is Boulder-based Kindara, which has raised nearly $7 million from investors so far. Co-founded by husband-and-wife team Katherine Bicknell and William Sacks, it is now being led by Sacks alone, who is passionate about fertility. \u201cIt\u2019s this beautiful, magical thing, and no one really knows a thing about it,\u201d he says.\nKindara\u2019s flagship product is the Wink, a fertility thermometer that links to a smartphone and tracks a woman\u2019s fertility cycle over time. The product appeals to women who want to get pregnant, of course, but also to those who use fertility awareness to avoid it, says Sacks. \u201cWe\u2019re solving a really high-value problem. What\u2019s more important than whether or not another human being born or not born?\u201d\nKindara's Wink is a smart fertility thermometer.\nKindara\u2019s Wink is a smart fertility thermometer.Photograph courtesy of Wink\nWomen\u2019s sexual health is also being disrupted, with sex toys getting much smarter: The newest models have more in common with the FitBit than with the vibrators of years past. Companies like Vibease and OhMiBod link toys to smart phone apps, allowing women to have unprecedented control over their experiences\u2014whether that means being in control themselves, or handing the reins over to a partner.\nSuki Dunham, co-founder of OhMiBod, says that tech and women\u2019s sexuality go hand in hand. \u201cWe believe that these products can truly augment a woman\u2019s love life,\u201d she says, noting that apps and wearable can help women learn about their own sexuality and share that knowledge with a partner. For example, the OhMiBod app includes a journal function for orgasms (think MyFitnessPal, except for sex). The Vibease, which is completely wearable, has an option to have the toy sync to a \u201cfantasy story\u201d on a smartphone. While OhMiBod is co-owned by Dunham and her husband, Vibease has raised $111,000 in seed funding so far.\nOhMiBod's BlueMotion is a connected women's sex toy\nOhMiBod\u2019s BlueMotion is a connected women\u2019s sex toyCourtesy of OhMiBod",

        "title": "FedEx CEO Fred Smith Slams Donald Trump's Trade Proposals | Fortune",
        "raw_content": "FedEx CEO Fred Smith Slams Donald Trump's Trade Proposals\nDonald Trump has done a lot since the election to assuage Corporate America\u2019s fears of his presidency. He\u2019s named Wall Streeters, including just today Goldman Sachs\u2019s Gary Cohn, and C-Suite bigwigs to his cabinet. And he\u2019s softening his tone on immigration.\nBut not every executive in the Fortune 500 is convinced. And that group includes Fred Smith. The CEO of FedEx on Friday made a strongly worded critique of Trump and his trade policy. He said getting rid of the NAFTA\u2014a trade agreement with Canada and Mexico that Trump has called \u201cthe single worst trade deal ever approved in this country\u201d\u2014would be \u201ccatastrophic for the U.S. economy.\u201d And he argued that Trump should be very careful in managing the nation\u2019s relationship with China.\nSmith made his comments in a speech at the National Competitiveness Forum, an annual gathering of industrial CEOs and corporate executives.\nSmith said NAFTA makes the U.S. $127 billion richer each year and is the basis for 14 million American jobs. Free trade is \u201cabsolutely essential to American prosperity,\u201d He added. On China, Smith also seemed to break with Trump, though not as much. The FedEx CEO allowed that China, and Asian economies in general, have not opened their markets to trade as much as the U.S. What\u2019s more, they are much more inclined to engage in industrial policy like subsidizing business and currency manipulation that increases the U.S. trade deficit and potentially costs American jobs. At the same time, Smith argued that a Trump policy administration\u2019s top priority should be to \u201cavoid a downward spiral in economic and commercial relations that would harm millions of people.\u201d\nThere are two important takeaways from the speech. First, it shows that the corporate establishment is going to take a hardline on issues like NAFTA. Smith even made a vigorous defense of the much-maligned TPP agreement. And remember, Republican members of the House voted on 190 to 50 to give the President fast-track negotiating authority for that trade deal, which illustrates just how popular free trade deals remain in Trump\u2019s party. With Democrats bereft of power in Washington, and Trump\u2019s administration increasingly staffed by establishment figures, the President-elect could have a lonely fight on his hands if he attempts to dismantle the free-trade status quo.\nBut Smith\u2019s comments on China does show that there is some wiggle room to find support for a tougher stance on trade relations with the world\u2019s second largest economy. For years now, Corporate America has downplayed China\u2019s and the rest of Asia\u2019s protectionist tendencies, as long their businesses continued to benefit from the Middle Kingdom\u2019s economic rise.\nBut the American public\u2019s growing anger over what they see as raw trade deals can likely no longer be ignored by a Republican Party that is increasingly reliant on votes from the working class. Smith\u2019s comments on China may be a signal of a growing consensus that the U.S. must insist on a change in trade relations with China. At the same time, there\u2019s no guarantee that this strategy will lead to better economic opportunities at home. Worse still, it could very well instigate Smith\u2019s fear of an internecine \u201cdownward spiral\u201d in trade relations.\nSmith made his case, now it\u2019s Trump\u2019s turn. The American public will be watching closely to see whether Trump\u2019s outside-the-box thinking can make the American labor market great again, or whether it\u2019s just the sort of empty populism that the establishment has feared.",

        "raw_content": "Topics - jmomma\nWhat's Your Story? Tell us. / Back again!\nHi all, I was here with my last pregnancy, when my cervix was found to be short at my 20 week scan. I was placed on pelvic rest, and given progesterone suppositories. My water ended up breaking right at 34 weeks, and I delivered my son at 34+1. He stayed 12 days in the NICU, but is doing great at 13 months now. He's had no issues, other than needing the CPAP for about 24 hours after birth, and then just staying in the NICU until he could regulate his body temperature and take his feeds from the breast and bottle.\nI'm pregnant with #3 (4th pregnancy) and am 12 weeks. I have my first ultrasound in 4 days with MFM to figure out a game plan. I want to be sure I'm doing everything I possibly can with this pregnancy, so if anyone has suggestions of what to bring up to the doctor, that would be great! I will discuss a cerclage this time around, and unless they are really against it for some reason, my OB thought the risk was low enough this early on that it would seem like a good idea to get one. I will also start progesterone shots at 16 weeks.\nPrayers to all of you growing those babies!\nWhat's Your Story? Tell us. / New here, 19+5, 1.8 cm cervix\nHi all! This is my 3rd pregnancy. I have a 2 year old whom I had with no complications at 40+2, and miscarried at 13 weeks in January. At my routine ultrasound at 18 weeks they found my cervix was about 2.4 cm, and I had a contraction that shortened it to 1.9. One week later (yesterday) at the ultrasound I had with MFM, it was 1.8. So far I'm on 200 mg of progesterone suppositories, and told to \"take it easy\", no walking, exercising, sex; basically be a couch potato. I have another appointment on 9/19 to see if my cervix has stabilized. I did not have any funneling or bulging bag of waters. They will see how things look at the next appointment, and cerclage was mentioned, but we will see then. The doctor said they don't like to do them if they don't have to, but it seems that there is so much success with one...\nOf course I'm extremely nervous and just looking to make it to the first goal of 24 weeks for starters. Any success stories or women in a similar situation would be great to hear! It seems that a lot of women on here are or were on bed rest, and so far my doctors haven't recommended that, so I'm hoping \"taking it easy\" like I have been is ok for now.",

        "raw_content": "Violence of Israeli Attack on Freedom Flotilla\u2019s Al Awda\nBy Dr Swee Ang, medical doctor on board the al-Awda (The Return), 4 August 2018.\nShe was aboard the Al-Awda sailing for Gaza with urgently needed medical supplies when the vessel was violently assaulted and hijacked in international waters a week ago and taken to an Israeli port. Passengers and crew were roughed up (some seriously injured) and abused, thrown in an Israeli jail and had their possessions and money stolen.\nThis is Dr Swee\u2019s account, word for word.\nThe last leg of the journey of al-Awda (the boat of return) was scheduled to reach Gaza on 29 July 2018. We were on target to reach Gaza that evening. There are 22 on board including crew with US$ 15,000 of antibiotics and bandages for Gaza. At 12.31 pm we received a missed call from a number beginning with +81\u2026 Mikkel was steering the boat at that time. The phone rang again with the message that we were trespassing into Israeli waters. Mikkel replied that we were in International waters and had right of innocent passage according to maritime laws. The accusation of trespassing was repeated again and again with Mikkel repeating the message that we were sailing in international waters. This carried on for about half an hour, while Awda was 42 nautical miles from the coast of Gaza.\nThe people who were to provide a non-violent barrier to the Israelis coming on deck and taking over the boat formed 3 rows \u2013 two rows of threes and the third row of 2 persons blocking the wheel house door to protect the wheel house for as long as possible. There were runners between the wheel house and the rear of the deck. The leader of the boat Zohar and I were at the two ends of the toilets corridor where we looked out at the horizon and inform all of any sightings of armed boats. I laughed at Zohar and said we are the Toilet Brigade, but I think Zohar did not find it very funny. It was probably bad taste under the circumstances. I also would be able to help as a runner and will have accessibility to all parts of the deck in view of being the doctor on board.\nWe came directly into a closed military zone in Ashdod. It was a sealed off area with many stations. It was specially prepared for the 22 of us. It began with a security x-ray area. I did not realise they retained my money belt as I came out of the x-ray station. The next station was strip search, and it was when I was gathering up my belongings after being stripped when I realised my money belt was no longer with me. I knew I had about a couple hundred Euros and they were trying to steal it. I demanded its return and refused to leave the station until it was produced. I was shouting for the first time. I was glad I did that as some other people were parted from their cash. The journalist from Al Jazeera Abdul had all his credit cards and US$ 1,800 taken from him, as well as his watch, satellite phone, his personal mobile, his ID. He thought his possessions were kept with his passport but when he was released for deportation he learnt bitterly that he only got his passport back. All cash and valuables were never found. They simply vanished.\nWe cannot accept this. We have to speak up, stand up against this lawlessness, oppression and brutality. We were completely unarmed. Our only crime according to them is we are friends of the Palestinians and wanted to bring medical aid to them. We wanted to brave the military blockade to do this. This is not a crime. In the week we were sailing to Gaza, they had shot dead 7 Palestinians and wounded more than 90 with live bullets in Gaza. They had further shut down fuel and food to Gaza. Two million Palestinians in Gaza live without clean water, with only 2-4 hours of electricity, in homes destroyed by Israeli bombs, in a prison blockaded by land, air and sea for 12 years.\nThe hospitals of Gaza since the 30 March had treated more than 9,071 wounded persons, 4,348 shot by machine guns from a hundred Israeli snipers while they were mounting peaceful demonstrations inside the borders of Gaza on their own land. Most of the gun-shot wounds were to the lower limbs and with depleted treatment facilities the limbs will suffer amputation. In this period more than 165 Palestinians had been shot dead by the same snipers, including medics and journalists, children and women. The chronic military blockade of Gaza has depleted the hospitals of all surgical and medical supplies. This massive attack on an unarmed Freedom Flotilla bringing friends and some medical relief is an attempt to crush all hope for Gaza. As I write I learnt that our sister Flotilla, Freedom, has also been kidnapped by the Israeli Navy while in international waters.\nRe: Violence of Israeli Attack on Freedom Flotilla\u2019s Al Awda\nWhy do you think this boat went to the Gaza strip? \"Urgently needed medical supplies\"???? Your author failed to mention the less urgently needed terrorists.\nUK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn does not consider Hamas a terrorist organization...\nHe said, A devil in Israel, a hero to the Palestine..\nYes, he is an anti-Semite, and a disgraceful man.",

        "title": "My Bumpy Middle Aged Long Hair Journey: Why Long Hair",
        "raw_content": "Since I began my first steps in the long hair journey, I\u2019ve never really sat down and thought about why growing my hair long is important to me. I gave it a lot of thought today.\nWhile my goal length is ultimately tailbone at this point, I don\u2019t know if I can realistically achieve that with healthy looking hair. And my goal really is to have hair as long as it can be, while looking healthy, even it that means having a shorter final goal length.\nSo what is it that has me driven to grow it long? I thought of a lot of possibilities. I never did have long hair much as a child, and never in my teens or 20s, so it\u2019s not about recapturing my youth.\nIt\u2019s not about vanity, or else I would have my hair cut and styled in the most face and age-flattering cut. I\u2019m sure there\u2019s always an element of vanity in wanting any part of your body to be a certain way, but that\u2019s really not the crux of it.\nI did always admire long hair, but usually the long hair I admired was not anything like my own; it was usually thick, wavy and flowing. My hair is and never will be any of those things, so I\u2019m not trying to achieve that.\nI finally realized that a lot of my desire to grow long healthy hair is about making a long term goal and doing what I can to reach it. Hair that is waist length, hip length, tailbone length, or however long I can keep growing, represents not days, not weeks, but years of care and commitment. This is not something that one can do overnight. It takes patience and a certain amount of discipline.\nLong healthy hair is a visible result of that commitment, patience, care and discipline. I really like that.\nI truly sabotaged my initial efforts when I dyed my hair brown and then blonde again, but that\u2019s in the past now. Now I\u2019m just about free of the damage of those experiences, and I\u2019m back on the road of this long hair journey.\nDo I think that having very long hair will change my life? No, not in itself. But I do think that having a long term goal and achieving it, even if it\u2019s something as seemingly insignificant as hair, will be a very good experience for me. It already has been so far.\nLabels: goals, long hair, self-improvement\nSchnauzerMom May 27, 2010 at 10:08 PM\nI really like your reasons for having long hair. They make sense to me. I had a talk with my DH last night. He thinks my hair looks better short but doesn't object to my growing it out. So I'm back in the saddle again.\nYour reasons echo my own for having long hair. Difference? I wanted the long and sleek, straight and thick hair...Which I don't have either and never got to have as a kid. Unfortunately without heat and lots of work, I never will have it. I just don't have the hair to make that look happen. That said, I do so wish I hadn't cut though. It just looks awful now! Patience grasshopper.\nWe are going to get older anyway. And with God's help we sure hope to keep living as old as dirt lol. Well.... we may as well get there trying to achieve the hair length we desire. We can DO IT!!",

        "title": "Containing the military industrial complex | Freepress.org",
        "raw_content": "Containing the military industrial complex\nRemarks at Democracy Fest, San Diego, July 15, 2006\nMore than any other weapons system, the chief products of the military industrial complex are lies. We just learned this week that Congress was cracking down on corruption by denying another contract to Halliburton. In reality, Halliburton has completed its main task of building five permanent bases and doesn't care as much about more contracts for services for soldiers. And, in fact, last month the Senate rejected, nearly along party lines, a bill to create honest contracting and impose penalties for fraud of the sort almost openly engaged in by Halliburton.\nLies and secrets are what the military industrial media complex sells us. We say the phrase \"military industrial complex,\" but the lies that it hides behind permeate our thinking and dominate the politics of both major parties. Some of these lies are:\nBeing tough and hungry for war makes us safer.\nThe wars we wage have something to do with defense.\nThe wars we wage are fought for reasons related to foreign threats or international relations.\nWe wage our wars reluctantly.\nWorking for peace is weak.\nThese lies are engrained in all of us, and you will find vestiges of them in yourself long after you reject them. The fact is that the larger our military grows, the less safe we are \u2013 because the size of it encourages its use, and its use creates enemies and terrorists.\nThe Bush Cheney gang has increased spending on weapons and wars to create the largest deficit ever. Our kids and grandkids will pay for this with their dollars and possibly their lives.\nWhat drives our government to behave this way?\nCongressman John Murtha recently sent his colleagues a letter comparing the $8 billion a month we're spending to kill Iraqis with the costs of various other projects, but Murtha has voted each year to spend that war money, and the alternatives he offered focused on so-called \"Homeland Security\" and included a plea to build more ships and planes for the military.\nWhere does this drive come from to only oppose a war with language that encourages the growth of the Military Industrial Media complex?\nThe first place we instinctively look is bribes, or what in Washington we call campaign contributions. And those are not insignificant: $16 million in 2004 from weapons makers, 63% of it to Republicans, and $53 million from energy companies, 75% of it to Republicans. The biggest profiteers in the current war are oil companies. If the illegal war bothers you and the price of gas bothers you, it may be even more disturbing to understand that the war was fought in order to raise the price of gas.\nBut the bribes from weapons makers and oil drillers are small beside those of other industries. And there are members of Congress who do not take them but still behave as if they took them. I'd like to suggest three ways to explain this.\nFIRST, Congress Members fear and pander to the corporate media, and the corporate media will not tolerate opposition to the military industrial complex. Just prior to the attack on Iraq, FAIR found that over three quarters of the guests discussing the coming war on ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS news were current or former government officials, and three-quarters of those who were not government officials were still supporters of the war. Meanwhile less than 1% were identified with organized protests or anti-war groups.\nOf course that makes sense if you're covering a coming war, as opposed to covering a real debate that might not lead to war. When the Downing Street Memo came out, we promoted it at AfterDowningStreet.org, and editors and producers told us it was old news. It was to them. They had known that the war was decided on. They just hadn't told their viewers.\nOne force that integrates the media into the military industrial complex is advertising. Another is ownership. Many media magnates \u2013 people like Rupert Murdoch, who is hosting a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton, his designated '08 loser, have links to weapons companies. GE, which owns NBC, is a weapons company. The Carlyle Group is also getting into media ownership.\nAnother force is ratings. More people watch TV when there's a war. Another force is think tanks. The Project for a New American Century, whose Deputy Director has been hired by Lockheed Martin, had a heavy presence of talking heads and columnists selling the war.\nThe MIM Complex sold us the WMD lies and profited handsomely. Halliburton even got $40 million to search for the mythical weapons. But a lot of Democrats refused and still refuse to oppose the lie machine. Here's a typical self-destructive pseudo attack on Bush's war penned by Josh Marshall in October '03:\n\"Every big new piece of legislation needs a catchy title. And I think I've come up with a good one for the $87 billion. How about 'The Bush Crony Full Employment Act of 2003'? Now, before you get up in arms, I'm for however much money our troops need to get the job done in Iraq\u2026.\"\nWere you about to get up in arms? I don't even carry arms.\nBut we are afraid to speak against war and have been for many years. I'm convinced that the ease with which we've accepted the utterly incoherent notion of a \"war on terror\" can be partially credited to our acceptance of such language as \"war on poverty\" or \"war on drugs.\"\nHow about peace to end poverty, and prosperity to end terrorism? How about media reform, public media, independent media, and honest news?\nThe SECOND explanation I would offer for why we fight is that the MIM Complex is the major engine driving our economy. Democratic Congress Members support weapons factories for the sake of the jobs, even knowing that two-thirds of the bribes from the profits will go to Republicans. Within weeks of 9-11, the Department of Attack asked weapons makers for proposals to help \"fight terrorism,\" and the Carlyle Group took a company public, citing 9-11 as a reason why it could.\nUnder Bush, military spending is up dramatically \u2013 it's at roughly $400 billion per year, not counting another $500 billion for war, not counting Homeland Insecurity, and not counting weapons sales to other countries. But this is a horribly inefficient way to stimulate an economy. Just like Bush's tax cuts (which, in contrast to his military spending, Democrats are not afraid to criticize) military spending puts too much money in the few pockets that are already bulging \u2013 and it is incredibly wasteful and corrupt. We need a way to drive our economy that benefits those who need it and does so without sacrificing American lives to kill other people. And we need to spend in a sector of the economy not associated with flag waving and war anthems, thus allowing Congress to exercise sober oversight. Some ideas include infrastructure in our cities, renewable energy, energy-efficient transportation, and retraining all of those people who can now stop searching our shoes and laptops when we get on planes.\nWe also need a ban on sending the National Guard abroad, a mandatory use of the draft for any war, taxes for war paid weekly and called a War Tax, and a requirement that children of Members of Congress, the President, and the Vice President go to war.\nThe THIRD and final explanation I'll propose for the MIM Complex's influence on our government is this: The Bush White House is a wholey owned subsidiary of Weapons R Us. The National Institute for Public Policy, which hired several so-called thinkers from weapons makers has three alumni in the Bush Administration. The Center for Security Policy, which has 8 weapons executives on its board, has 22 former board members or associates in the Bush Cheney gang. Thirty-two major appointees in the Bush Administration are former executives, consultants, or significant shareholders of weapons companies. Seven members of the Bush Administration came from Northrop Grumman and eight from Lockheed Martin \u2013 on whose board Dick Cheney's wife served until 2001, receiving a half a million dollars for whatever it was she did.\nThe Secretary of the Navy came from General Dynamics, and the Deputy Secretary of State from Raytheon and Boeing \u2013 a company that Karl Rove owned $100,000 to $250,000 worth of stock in. Then there are those, like James Woolsey, who serve on advisory boards to the Bush Administration, while simultaneously profiting from the policies they advise on. The LA Times had a lengthy article a year ago yesterday on the long list of people who helped promote a war on Iraq and then set up new companies to profit from it. Bush himself has an uncle and two brothers profiting from this war. But then he had a grandfather who profited from the Nazis and worked with one of Hitler's top funders. So there is a substantial family tradition to uphold. Speaking of which, well known people connected to the Carlyle Group include not just the bin Laden family, but also James Baker, Frank Carlucci, and George Bush the First. The Carlyle Group owns an arm of the British Ministry of Defense, a former branch of the Italian military, and the company in Santa Clara, United Defense, where Bush Jr. gave a speech after waddling across a flight deck to declare mission accomplished.\nAnd then there is Cheney. As Secretary of Attack he paid Halliburton to write a report recommending shifting more work to companies like Halliburton, which got most of the work. Cheney then worked for Halliburton for 5 years and $44 million before going back to what he calls governing. But he continued to receive a salary and hold stock options.\nWe've moved beyond the sort of war profiteering that Truman called treason. We've moved into a threat to our democracy that is exactly what Madison and Jefferson meant by high crimes and misdemeanors. There is only one thing we can decently do, and that is to impeach the criminals and remove them from office.\nAnd while it is obscene to put electoral considerations ahead of our duty to impeach, those who do so should attempt to remember that no matter how many times they're told impeachment is good for Republicans, all of the evidence points exactly the other way.",

        "raw_content": "Energy is Clarity\nOne of the fastest ways to get more energy in your life is with clarity. There are lots of philosophies around the best way to manage your to do list. One of the best that I use is a variation of something called Getting Things Done (GTD). Knowing exactly what you should be doing next is certainly a key step, however, knowing WHY you are doing what you are doing is just as important.\nIt\u2019s easy to get bogged down in the details of everyday life. The most successful people I know are ruthless about cutting out the clutter from their lives. It\u2019s called the Pareto or 80/20 Principle \u2013 80% of your results come from 20% of your effort. The question is, which 20%? Every week I spend time thinking about what I want to get accomplished by the end of the week. I also reflect on what I accomplished over the last week and whether or not I accomplished what I had set out to do. I do the same thing every month. Doing this allows me to be really clear on my priorities. On any given day when I find myself being pulled in all sorts of directions by email, bills, phone calls, and random errands, I can stop and ask myself if what I\u2019m doing is getting me any closer to what I want to accomplish that week.\nWhen you start weighing what you are currently doing against what you want to accomplish you quickly realize whether or not you\u2019re being energy efficient. To do this requires clarity on what you\u2019re trying to accomplish. Not only will such clarity enable you save energy, you\u2019ll get energized just by knowing that you\u2019re being productive and meeting your goals. Sometimes getting that clarity is a challenge unto itself. How do you get it? I\u2019ll save that for my next post\u2026\nPosted on August 14, 2009 Author lorenzCategories Energy",

        "raw_content": "The Color of Terror\nis a pretty broad spectrum\nLet me tell you of a terrorist plot here on American soil that has been under reported by the new media. A politically active cleric of questionable authority, with at least 2 years military training including command skills, attempted to organize a plot to kill American citizens and burn their places of worship all in the name of his faith. He contacted known radical militants and encouraged them to bring AR-15s, M-4s or M-16s with armor piercing ammunition, explosives, and machetes. He told his co-conspirators that anyone who tried to stop them would have to be killed.\nThe absolute worst part of this? He was allowed to plead guilty to one count of making threats by phone, possibly with a $250,000 fine and 5 years in jail. Although it should be noted that a judge still has to approve that deal.\nSo who is this religious radical? Who trained him? What are his political connections?\nHis name is Robert Doggart of Signal Mountain, Tennessee. He is an ordained minister in the Christian National Church (Which, in spite of a pretty slick website, is ultimately an 'ordination mill' that only requires a $165 donation to issue you a license and oridination; on that gets an \"F\" on Online Ordination Reviews) . He attended Edison State College for his undergraduate degree and went on to get a master\u2019s degree from LaSalle University. He also earned a Ph.D. from LaSalle in engineering management.He worked for 17 year at the Tennessee Valley Authority, a federally owned corporation that provides electrical generation. Doggart served in the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps, including two years as a unit commander.\nOh and he ran for congress last year and received about 9200 votes.\nHe was no doubt encouraged by voices of reason. Like Lou Dobbs:\nThe community he planned on attacking is primarily African American and made up of 4th generation Muslim Americans.\nThe man is a terrorist. Just because he is white and claims to be a Christian and is from an upper middle class background he is not getting the public attention he deserves.\nJesus was pretty clear about the whole killing thing.\nAll radicals are dangerous. Dialog is the only path to peace. Communication is the only Christian response when confronted with different ideas and cultures. We all need to look carefully at our beliefs and our own prejudices.\nAll I have left to say is said by these, my fellow Americans:",

        "raw_content": "From Yom Hashoa to Yom Haazmut 2008\nSpring time for the last 20 years, always brings a great number of speaking engagements for me with it, but this year topped it all.\nWithin the short span of two weeks I spoke to 12 different groups and in addition to participating at four memorial services.\nIt started on Sunday April 27. 2008, a week before Yom Hashoa. An educational officer had heard me speak in Yad Vashem to a group of \"Birthright\", was very impressed and invited me to her unit, to speak to officers and soldiers in Tel Aviv in the \u201cKirya\u201d, our military headquarters. To flesh out the story I use my power point projection, which helps my listeners to follow in my footsteps as I talk about \u201cA Jewish Family\u201d my family.\nMonday I was invited to the grant opening of the new exhibition \u201cThis is my Home\u201d in Yad Vashem. It shows the contribution of Shoa Survivors to the building up of the State of Israel.\nIt certainly is an exhibition well worse while to visit.\nTuesday lunchtime I spoke to students of the Jeshiva in the Fuchsberg center for Conservative Judaism and in the evening to some 30 youngsters of their youth movement \u201cNoam\u201d in East Talpiot.\nWednesday morning the Evelyn de Rothshild school for religious girls in Rechavia near my home, invited me, as they had done a couple of years ago, to speak to some 200 pupils aged 14-15.\nIn the afternoon the \u201cLindenbaum Michlala\u201d, a study center for religious girls from America invited me to talk the present group. They have been in contact with me ever since the group in 2002 joined the crowd at the funeral of my grandson who fell in the fighting in Je\u2019nin on Yom Hashoa.\nOn the eve of Yom Hashoa I joined the annual ceremony in Yad Vashem. Thousands of people braved the bitter cold, but would not miss to listen to the torch lighters telling their tale.\nEarly next morning on Yom Hashoa I was taken together with half a dozen other speakers to the Jerusalem Forest, where Bne-Brith and the Jewish National Fund (KKL) had invited several hundred pupils and soldiers for their annual Yom Hashoa ceremony. This year the theme was JRJ Jews Rescue Jews during the Shoa, something which is always part of my story.\nAs soon as I got there even before the ceremony started I spoke to a group of recruits from the border police. I asked for the loan of one of the soldiers to accompany me up and down on the hilly territory.\nThere was a class of deaf pupils, with a sign language interpreter, who lost patience during the long speeches. I took them aside and with the help of print outs of my regular projection and the sign language, they were delighted to understand the story and thereby feel part of it all.\nAfter the speeches were over I talked to a group of girls aged 14-15 from a religious school in Ashdod who did not want to miss the opportunity.\nAfter a short break at home I was of to Yad Vashem, where a group of over a hundred Military Police soldiers were waiting to listen to me.\nIn the evening I participated at a short creative writing workshop in \u201cAmcha\u201d, the result of which you have just read.\nSunday of the following week it was a large group of \u201cBirthright \u201c I spoke to in Yad Vashem.\nMonday a school for religious girls aged 11-13 invited me to kick of the week of celebration \"60 Years the State of Israel\".\nI prepared a special power point presentation \u201c60 Years ago\u201d, that tells the tale from the Balfour declaration, Zionist Youth Movement, Hachshara, Aliya, Athlit Detention Camp, Kibbutz, setting up a new Kibbutz \u201cChoma Umigdal\u201d (Watchtower and Fence), UN Partition Plan, War of Independence, Declaration of the State of Israel, mass immigration,\nMaaberot (Tent Cities), \u201cZena\u201d(Austerity) and building up of the country.\nAlthough the girls were very young they listened carefully and asked relevant questions.\nIn the evening a group of German pilgrims waited for me in a Hotel in the old city. They had previously visited Palestinian cities in the West Bank and were pretty amazed to hear my story. It all was new to them.\nTuesday evening my son took me to Ramat Rachel to participate at the memorial service on the eve of Remembrance Day for fallen soldiers from the War of Independence, as well as my grandson who fell in 2002 fighting in Je\u2019nin.\nWednesday was the highlight of my recent activities.\nFor a couple of month Or and Shachar, two pupils from the school of \u201cScience and Art\u201d had visited me once a week collecting information of what it was like 60 years ago. They listened to my stories, searched in the inter-net and scanned photos. With that and the addition of a petrol stove, petrol lamp and Wonder Pot that I lend them, they put up a very impressive exhibition.\nWednesday early in the morning I arrived at the school, was received and made welcome by Or and Shachar. For the celebration of the Day of Independence their school had invited me to talk to some 200 of their pupils from the upper classes with my special prepared power point presentation. I had a very captive audience.\nThurday was Independence Day.\nTwo weeks packed full with advantures.\nI have now returned to my normal schedule.\nJeru-salaam, -shalom & -salem,\nCould you kindly comment, whether my details are correct in a dissident essay concerning the recent scaling up of production in the Israeli high Tech companies in:\nE.g. \"...Before the Second Intifada, there were nearly 200 Israeli companies listed in the Nasdaq, at the Intifada the count dropped to 70. (The number is still greater than from all the European countries combined). It is said that the dollars are green since the Americans pull them down from the tree raw and fresh. The start-ups are imported straight from the garage, and scaling up of production in the \"conflict hotspot\" has been considered impossible. But the new Millennium has brought a change in tide.\nAs an example, the supranational Intel transferred the mass production of Centricon-processors to Israel, where ~20% of citizens possess university decrees (ranking 3rd in the world) but where the environment respects patents and are not plagiating every item they produce to others like the rocketting China. Intel was also offered an overall tax rate of 10%, which is about three times lower than that of US.\nAlso, the biggest generic drug factory in the world was recently established in Israel. Generating US$7 billion in annual revenues, Israel's Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (TEVA) is the world's largest generic pharmaceutical company. That is: to cure people with less money. TEVA makes generic versions of brand-name antibiotics, heart drugs, heartburn medications, and more - in all close to 200 global generic products, 700 compounds, and more than 2800 dosage forms and formulations. TEVA's pharmaceuticals are used in some 20% of U.S. generic drug prescriptions. Examples of TEVA's generics include lower-cost equivalents of such blockbusters as anti-depressant Prozac and cholesterol drug Mevacor. Nevertheless, in biotechnology and original drug development, about 400 experimental Israeli drugs have been approved or accepted in clinical phases.\nThe population of Arabs under the Israeli government increased ten-fold in only 57 years. Palestinian life expectancy increased from 48 to 72 years in 1967-95. The death rate decreased by over 2/3 in 1970-90 and the Israeli medical campaigns decreased the child death rate from a level of 60 per 1000 in 1968 to 15 per 1000 in 2000 at the Westbank. (An analogous figure was 64 in Iraq, 40 in Egypt, 23 in Jordan, and 22 in Syria in 2000). During 1967-88 the amount of comprehensive schoold and second level polytechnic institutes for the Arabs was increased by 35%. During 1970-86 the proportion of Palestinian women at the West Bank and Gaza not having gone to school decreased from 67 % to 32 %. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita in West Bank and Gaza increased in 1968-1991 from 165 US dollars to 1715 dollars (compare with 1630$ in Turkey, 1440$ in Tunis, 1050$ in Jordan, 800$ in Syria, 600$ in Egypt. and 400$ in Yemen)...\"\nRecovering from hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of the brain,\nPauli Ojala, evolutionary critic",

Jeff Easley. Sanjulian. Ken Kelly. Rich Corben. Alex Nino. Neal Adams. What do they all have in common? In the 1970\u2019s at one time or another they worked for Warren Publishing, which produced the comic magazines Creepy and Eerie. These fantasy-horror comic magazines were ahead of their time, and shared a cultural overlap with some of the same influences that were affecting the evolution of D&D. They published comics\u2014not prose and not gaming\u2014but they oozed 1970\u2019s monsters.\nSo why do we bring this up? Well, a new company called Warrant Publishing is reviving these 1970\u2019s-style publications, starting with The Creeps. With 16 issues in print, The Creeps is off to a great start. Its contributors include\u2014you guessed it\u2014Frank Frazetta, Jeff Easley, Sanjulian, Ken Kelly, Rich Corben, Alex Nino, Neal Adams, and many others, through a combination of reprints and all-new material.\nWe\u2019re not being paid to say this. We just like the magazine and we think you will too. Please note that The Creeps is not a gaming publication! The contents are short stories in a comic format, published at magazine size. But they consistently deal with fantasy, horror, and monster themes, and we think you find them inspirational for your games.\nIn our online store we have a limited supply of issues #3, #6, #10, #11 and #14. We picked out these issues in particular because they have great stories inside, and cover art by some folks you may recognize.\nThe Creeps #3 cover by Frank Frazetta\nThe Creeps #10 cover by Sanjulian\nThe Creeps #11 cover by Ken Kelly\nThe Creeps #14 cover by Jeff Easley (anyone else recognize that cover?)\nHead on over to our online store and pick up some to read today.

        "raw_content": "Why do we have hope even in death?\n\u201cBut I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.\u201d 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18\nJesus Christ is coming again to judge the living and the dead! We confess this in our creeds and we hear it in our Scripture readings. Jesus said, \u201cAs the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be\u201d (Matthew 24:27; cf. Chapters 24 and 25 of Matthew\u2019s Gospel). We are to be ready by repenting of our sinful ways and looking in faith to Christ and His atoning sacrifice on the cross.\nThe believers in Thessalonica \u201cturned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come\u201d (1 Thessalonians 1:9-10). They had come to believe the Gospel and to trust in Christ Jesus for their salvation, and they were awaiting His glorious return to take them to be with Him forever in heaven.\nBut what of those who have died in the faith before the coming of Christ Jesus? If a believer dies before the return of Jesus, have they lost out? St. Paul tells us the answer in chapter 4, beginning at v. 13.\nWe do not have to sorrow when a fellow believer falls asleep, or dies, trusting in the Lord Jesus. We do not need to sorrow as others do, who have no hope. Why? Consider the inspired words of Paul\u2019s letter: \u201cIf we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.\u201d\nThis is no secret rapture or snatching away of believers as some suggest. The apostle says: \u201cThe Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God\u201d (cf. Matthew 24:29ff.; 25:31ff.; Revelation 1:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:1ff.; 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10; Matthew 13:47ff.).\nJesus, who died for our sins and rose again (cf. 1 Corinthians 15:3ff.), will bring with Him the souls of all the saints who have gone before us, the souls of all who have trusted in His name. This, of course, means that when believers die, their souls are taken to be with the Lord Jesus in heaven. Consider poor Lazarus, whose soul was carried by angels into the \u201cbosom of Abraham\u201d (Luke 16:19ff.), or the thief on the cross whose soul was that day taken to paradise (Luke 23:43). Consider the Apostle Paul\u2019s words in Philippians 1:21ff. He desired to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.\nWhen Jesus returns, all who have died in the faith will be raised up. It won\u2019t matter whether the body is preserved through embalming, decayed to dust or turned to ashes, all the dead will rise and stand before the LORD God. The Bible says: \u201cAnd I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works\u201d (Revelation 20:12-13).\nHow will we be judged? According to our works. The Bible says: \u201cFor we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad\u201d (2 Corinthians 5:10; cf. Matthew 25:31ff.). But our works do not measure up! According to God\u2019s Word, we\u2019ve all sinned and come short of what God requires of us to enter into His glory (cf. Romans 3:23; Ecclesiastes 7:20).\nSo, how is it that we sinners can be acceptable and righteous in God\u2019s eyes? We read on in the chapter (2 Corinthians 5:19-21): \u201cGod was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ\u2019s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.\u201d It is through faith in the atoning sacrifice of Jesus! It is by fleeing to the holy life and innocent sufferings and death of Christ Jesus in our stead. It is by washing our robes and making them white in the blood of the Lamb (Revelation 7:14). \u201cThere is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus\u2026\u201d (Romans 8:1; cf. v. 34). Or, as Jesus said, \u201cVerily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life\u201d (John 5:24).\nBelievers who are living in this world when Jesus returns will not go before those who have died. The Word of God says: \u201cthat we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent [precede] them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air.\u201d\nIt is as Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 15:51-54: \u201cBehold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.\u201d\nAnd, \u201cso shall we ever be with the Lord\u201d ! When Christ returns, the dead are raised up and we are changed, we will be forever with the Lord. Jesus said, \u201cIn my Father\u2019s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also\u201d ( John 14:2-3).\nIt is described this way in Revelation 21:3-4: \u201cAnd I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.\u201d It is then that we will serve our God \u201cin everlasting righteousness, innocence, and blessedness\u201d (Luther\u2019s Small Catechism, Second Article; cf. Third Article and Luke 1:75).\nSo, why do we have hope when a fellow believer dies? And, why can we face our own deaths in hope and confidence? It is because of Jesus Christ, who died for our sins and rose again! By His death He made full atonement for all our sins \u2013 indeed, for the sins of all (cf. 1 John 2:1-2) \u2013 and by His resurrection, we have the assurance that His sacrifice for sins was acceptable to God and that all who place their faith in Him are also justified and forgiven and acceptable to God (cf. Romans 4:23 \u2013 5:2; Ephesians 1:6-7). And we have the assurance that, as Christ was raised from the dead on the third day, so we also will be raised from the dead to spend eternity with our God and Savior!\nWe have the confidence of Job, who confessed: \u201cI know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: and though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me\u201d (Job 19:25-27).\nO gracious Savior, grant us faith in You and Your cross that we might have a certain hope of forgiveness, life and eternal salvation. Amen.",

        "raw_content": "Hampstead Parish Church's Vision, launched in October last year, says that we are committed to \"offering open welcome and active invitation\". It speaks of the church having \"a culture of compassion, generosity, invitation and hospitality\", with a concentration on working for \"reconciliation, justice and righteousness\". All of this is rooted in the calling to be \"an inclusive community of Christian love, faith, witness and action.\"\nIt is encouraging and inspiring to see examples of all of that in practice. This morning a regular visitor to the church reminded us that last year, when it snowed, we made coffee and tea available for free. They felt that, as it was cold again, we might do the same this year, and so we will. Once again guests at the C4WS Shelter which we hosted on Saturdays until last week said that the hospitality was remarkable, not least the quality of the food. I got a special buzz whenever I was there at 7.30 as guests arrived, and hosts greeted new arrivals.\nThere has been active compassion and hospitality in the detailed and committed way in which Monthur, Rahaf, Aseel and Mohammed, the family of Syrian refugees, have been welcomed and helped to settle as part of the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme. A group of people from across the churches (and beyond) have spent many hours with the family, accompanying their first steps in learning English and getting to grips with this great city. This is the mission of the church in action, and though it is no more than we should do, it is a stunning example of an outworking of faith and commitment.\nThere is invitation too. The Valentine's Ball, on February 9yth, is all about the church and Hampstead Parochial School putting on an event to which we can invite friends and colleagues. One of the aims of building up community life is expressed in increasing \"food based hospitality\" so that we have great things to invite people to. It looks like 200 people will be at the ball. Generous sponsorship and keen pricing will mean that the event will be of high quality, and there will be significant proceeds to benefit C4WS in its work with the homeless.\nSomeone once said that \"if you're resting on your laurels you've got them in the wrong place.\" Week by week there is stunning worship, generous welcome, active engagement and open invitation at Hampstead Parish Church. Whenever I'm tempted to become complacent and even a little proud about all that's happening, another need becomes obvious, another flaw or failing or missed opportunity makes itself plain. I'm grateful for all these opportunities to express the love and challenge of God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I hope we will continue to spur each other on to build this inclusive Christian community, and that we will lose no opportunity to invite people to \"come and see\".",

        "raw_content": "\"Culture beats strategy every time\" is a truism in management consultation. The Accountable Care Organization concept is excellent strategy, but it won't get anywhere if our health system culture doesn't support it.\nThis morning I was happy to see a front page article in the New York Times about how Advocate Health Care is developing its ACO. The article is clear and informative. But the amateur medical anthropologist in me was struck by what the language reveals about the cultural context within which ACOs will thrive or crash and burn. In what follows, snippets from the article are in italics, followed by my editorial comments. I've highlighted key phrases - all of the emphases are mine:\nOn a stormy evening this spring, nurses at Dr. Gary Stuck\u2019s family practice were on the phone with patients with heart ailments, asking them not to shovel snow. The idea was to keep them out of the hospital, and that effort \u2014 combined with dozens more like it \u2014 is starting to make a difference: across the city, doctors are providing less, but not worse, health care.\nIn recent years I've been careful to shovel snow slowly and not to overload the shovel. If I was one of Dr. Stuck's patients I would have appreciated a call from the nurse. But note the assumption that less care is likely to be worse. As a physician who practiced for 43 years my default view is that less is better/more is worse. Many of my colleagues think the same way. ACOs won't succeed unless we can nudge the wider public into understanding that \"more\" does not equal \"better\" and \"less\" is often an improvement!\nFor most health care providers, that would be cause for alarm. But not for Advocate Health Care, based in Oak Brook, Ill., a pioneer in an approach known as \u201caccountable care\u201d that offers financial incentives for doctors and hospitals to cut costs rather than funnel patients through an ever-greater volume of costly medical services. Under the agreement, hospital admissions are down 6 percent. Days spent in the hospital are down nearly 9 percent. The average length of a stay has declined, and many other measures show doctors providing less care, too.\nInsofar as the kind of integrated care ACOs are designed to promote is the right way to deliver care, the changed payment structure is removing a barrier to doing the right thing, not \"incentivizing\" us like rats in a maze. I don't think I'm alone in finding all the talk about \"incentivizing physicians\" to collaborate with their patients and colleagues offputting. And if I were a naive patient I'd be suspicious of care that my doctor had to be \"incentivized\" to provide!\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard to imagine that you could start from scratch and do this and be successful in three years,\" said Dr. Lee Sacks, Advocate\u2019s chief medical officer, noting that other systems may find it far harder to flip the traditional fee-for-services system on its head. \u201cWe had a running head-start going back to 1995.\u201d\nThe organizations that joined in 1995 to create Advocate have a 100 year history of faith-based health care. As a non-Christian I found the Advocate mission inspiring. I would be proud to practice with colleagues who shared the values Advocate promulgates. I wish the article had taken the following great quote from Dr. Sacks that I found on the Advocate website:\n\"There is just a special feeling throughout Advocate Health Care. We regularly recognize those who exemplify our values of compassion, equality, excellence, partnership and stewardship, even though many of them would say that they were just doing their job.\u201d\nA piece of cheese at the end of a maze isn't what \"incentivizes\" health professionals - it's the privilege of being part of a caring profession whose values go back for millennia! The admirable clinicians Dr. Sacks is talking about would be stunned to be told that their comportment reflected economic incentives, not personal mission!\nIn some ways, accountable care resembles earlier efforts to control medical spending, including the health maintenance organizations that proliferated in the 1980s but fell out of favor, in part because they severely limited patients\u2019 choices. But accountable care differs by giving doctors and hospitals a direct financial stake in saving money and a reason to invest in various programs of preventive care rather than relying exclusively on the fees they would normally earn from providing services.\nThis snippet tip toes towards getting the culture issue right, but it still misses the crucial point. Capitated payments facilitate investment in programs (and not just for prevention) that are not paid for in our cockeyed fee-for-service/widget-rewarding payment system. But that's not what gives doctors a \"reason\" to invest. The reason is that it's the right thing to do in light of a mission that even many athiest clinicians regard as \"sacred.\"\nSo far, Advocate has achieved a small but significant savings of about 2 percent below projected costs, Blue Cross Blue Shield said, but it is not clear whether it can continue to make progress. Already, some Advocate hospital chiefs have expressed fears over losing revenue and warned about the threat to their financial performance. Doctors fret that their incomes may suffer. \u201cWe\u2019re doing it because it\u2019s the right thing to do for patients,\u201d said Dr. Stuck, the Advocate family physician. \u201cWe\u2019re not making more money.\u201d\nDr. Stuck's point about doing the right thing speaks for itself!\n\u201cYou\u2019re trying to overlay a payment design onto a benefit model that allows a patient to go anywhere he wants,\u201d said Steve Hamman of Blue Cross Blue Shield, noting that patients can undermine the advantages of the new approach if they ignore the advice or insist on unnecessary tests and procedures. \u201cWe can talk all we want about provider accountability and how important that is. But there is a measure of patient accountability that is critical as well.\u201d\nFor readers who aren't familiar with the ins and outs of the ACO concept, this paragraph is referring to the fact that Medicare beneficiaries who are receiving their care from an ACO aren't \"locked in\" to the ACO network. If Dr. Stuck's patients want to go to the Mayo Clinic they can do so. This is likely to create clinical, economic and ethical challenges for ACOs. What if the Mayo Clinic does knee replacements better than the ACO? Do we have to refer patients \"out\"? What are the acceptable ways for ACOs to try to keep patients \"in network\"? And, most important, how do we engage patients and the public in seeing stewardship of shared resources as a societal imperative they share responsibility for?\nWe Yanks believe in magic bullets. That's why we have so many drugs in our medicine cabinets and drones in the sky. ACOs, alas, will not magically solve our health \"system's\" problems of quality and cost. The ACO is a good concept, but it won't thrive without a supportive culture. The otherwise excellent article in the New York Times shows how far we have to go to develop the culture we need!\n(See here, here, and here for posts that discuss related aspects of the ACO concept.)\nLabels: accountable care organizations, health care reform, health system ethics\nThe Bias Towards Drugs in Treating Depressed Older Patients\nI recently read an article on \"How to adapt cognitive-behavioral therapy for older adults\" that came to me in Current Psychiatry, a \"throw-away\" journal (one that comes to professionals free of charge and without subscription, typically containing non-peer-reviewed articles and often replete with advertising). The article itself was excellent, but the opening paragraph was revealing in terms of the problematic way psychiatric treatment is typically framed nowadays:\nSome older patients with depression, anxiety, or insomnia may be reluctant to turn to pharmacotherapy and may prefer psychotherapeutic techniques. Evidence has established cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) as an effective intervention for several psychiatric disorders and CBT should be considered when treating geriatric patients. (emphasis added by me)\nPerhaps as the spouse of a college English teacher I'm overly fussy about language, but to my eye this paragraph gives drugs the position of privilege in treating elderly patients with the common symptoms of depression, anxiety, or insomnia, and relegates psychological interventions like CBT to \"be considered\" if drugs are rejected. Readers wouldn't guess that the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guideline on treating depression in adults recommends various applications of CBT as the first intervention for subthreshold depressive symptoms or mild to moderate depression. Drugs only come in later (except for more severe depression)!\nOutcome studies suggest that CBT is at least as effective as medication for mild to moderate depression. Given that medication side effects can be especially problematic in an elderly population, why the bias against psychosocial interventions? I see four main reasons:\nFrom non-stop pharmaceutical marketing to physicians and the public, we associate drugs with images of butterflies, sunshine, smiling faces, and other seductive visions. The multi-billion dollar marketing campaign synergizes with our wish for quick and easy fixes to our problems.\nAgeism, as reflected in aphorisms like \"you can't teach an old dog new tricks,\" promotes the belief that elderly folks are too set in their ways to change by psychological means. Empirical studies show this isn't true.\nNon-mental health clinicians may worry that they aren't adequately skilled at providing CBT or other psychosocial interventions like my primary care colleague years ago who said, in unintended verse: \"I know what to do when they're dying/But not what to do when they're crying.\"\nFor harried primary care physicians (the likeliest group to see elderly patients with mild depression) writing a prescription takes much less time than initiating a psychosocial intervention.\nLack of skill and the crunch of time are serious impediments. But they're not insoluble. CBT has been adapted to self-guided formats. Non-mental health clinicians and aides have been trained in basic CBT approaches. And CBT has been delivered by telephonic means.\nThe degree to which we favor drugs over psychosocial treatments ultimately reflects a form of bias. That's why I discuss it in a blog about ethics!\n(For an example of how our national tilt towards mechanistic thinking about human process affects another age group, see yesterday's New York Times article reporting that 11% of school aged children have been given a diagnosis of ADHD. Stimulants represent a nine billion dollar blockbuster business.)",

        "raw_content": "Home Mobile Android Pepo Social Media App Raises $2.35 Million in Funding\nPepo, a social messaging app aimed at groups, raised $2.35 million in seed funding. The company, founded by Jason Goldberg, raised the cash through previous backers of his prior ventures. Goldberg, a serial entrepreneur, started several other startups, including Fab.com, Fabulis and Jobster.\nPepo is Goldberg\u2019s new project that allows groups to post, read and interact with personalized content based on the user\u2019s interests.\nGoldberg raised nearly $300 million for his previous startups, and the funding round for Pepo included several former investors in his projects. Tencenter, Vectr, Greycroft and Correlation all invested in the funding. Goldberg participated in the round, too.\nThe failure of Fab.com, sold for a rumored $15 million, proved to be a lesson for Goldberg. Fab, at its height, was valued at over $1 billion before being sold to PCH for an undisclosed sum. The company\u2019s quick rise brought in over $100 million in funding.\nPepo has lured in 7 out of 10 board members of Fab.com.\nGoldberg told TechCrunch that several offers for a larger funding round were tendered by investors, but he wants to take it slow with Pepo. He has self-funded the app thus far.\nHis failures are notable, but investors put their trust in Goldberg due to his openness about his own faults and failures along the way.\nPepo is divided into categories, which are created by users and Pepo. The categories allow users to view content that\u2019s interesting and exciting to them. Users will see a stream of pictures and videos, which they can respond to and ask questions. Notes can be left on the content, too.\nThe app faces stiff competition, and the content is generic at the moment, with the inclusions of the cooking category showing people\u2019s latest dishes and not much in the way of recipes or ingredients.\nPepo announced a team of 40+ ruby on rails developers from India in February.\nPrevious articleIs Amazon Go Really the Next Big Jobs Killer?\nNext articleNet Neutrality\u2019s Fight to Intensify as AT&T Pushes the Limits",

        "raw_content": "Because \u201cNil Sine Numine\u201d Was Too Ironic\nAs the imago matures, there are legends that we do not see.\nMeredith runs away from the glorious germ cycle.\nRun, Meredith, run!\nThe germ cycle works like this. First, someone sneezes. This is probably because they\u2019ve been mentioned.\nFor example, Meredith was sneezing just a few minutes ago. She was mentioned as part of this ongoing legend!\nLater, Martin will talk about infinite forces, unknowable, imperceptible, transcendent to the circumstances of his life. Then you\u2019ll sneeze! It\u2019s not that he doesn\u2019t know you\u2019re there, but there are light cone and timing issues that make you ineffable unto him. Your germs will get everywhere.\nMeredith is fleeing the sneezing because she doesn\u2019t want germs on her. She\u2019s getting in a boat. She\u2019s sailing away!\nOnce people sneeze, the germs are \u201cin play.\u201d They rotate around the immediate environment vigorously germing. Once they\u2019ve infected everyone they can, they evaporate upwards into the sky.\nMeredith pulls a sweep of storms over the sky. The clouds seal away the germs behind a layer of mystery.\nThe germs seethe around in the sky. Then they come down as divine vengeance!\nYou can\u2019t escape divine vengeance just because there\u2019s a storm, but you can sometimes sail away from it if you\u2019re a very good sailor. That\u2019s why Odysseus kept surviving, even though his shrimp-eating ways angered both God and Poseidon. Everyone stuck on land, however, gets the plague and runs around sneezing right and left.\nLook! Sid\u2019s illustrating this. He\u2019s running around sneezing right and left\u2014one sneeze in each direction, like the waving of a baton!\nPeople wonder why the Heavens are so angry. They look around. They find someone to blame. Often this is just someone running around sneezing, like Sid, to whom they impute grave moral failings. Sometimes it\u2019s someone terribly unrighteous like Tantalus or that girl who had sex that one time. Personally, we recommend Tantalus! If God is going to send down plagues every time people have sex, you\u2019re going to have to live with your sneezing.\nOnce people have blamed someone to clear their consciences, they begin the hard work of reforming themselves. This step is optional but an important part of the germ cycle. Meredith\u2019s sailing away mostly so she doesn\u2019t have to do it!\nReformation leads to a quelling of divine vengeance. Virtue appeases God or the gods, as appropriate to the plague in question. The germs dry up and the germ cycle begins a new revolution.\nMeredith pulls up her boat on the docks of a distant land. She sags in relief. She\u2019s escaped the sneezing and the vengeance!\nA sign next to the docks reads, \u201cSodom and Gomorrah. Population 40,000.\u201d\nAnd the city motto, \u201cAd astra per aspera,\u201d or, \u201cThrough difficulty, to the stars.\u201d\nDavid Goldfarb on February 16, 2006 at 5:47 am said:\n\u201cNil sine numine\u201d would mean something like \u201cnothing without a god.\u201d Or perhaps, \u201cNothing without divine will.\u201d\nADamiani on February 16, 2006 at 6:38 am said:\nAd astra per aspera is the state motto of Kansas. An interesting choice, given its similarity to the RAF motto \u201cPer ardua ad astra\u201d\u2013 particularly given the distinction between \u201caspera\u201d (difficulty) and \u201cardua\u201d (suffering).\nGomorrah = Kansas.\nNyren on October 10, 2009 at 5:08 pm said:\nReading this for the first time in 2009, I feel like I\u2019m missing something. Is this supposed to be the first mention of an imago, with no prior mention of a cocoon, or any other insectoid references? I find myself confused as to the context of the text preceding this entry, and it feels like I missed an entry somewhere, but I see nothing looking back.\nHowever, this being Hitherby, and chaos having been mentioned a couple entries back with no context, it is possible, even likely, that the confusion is intentional.\nJenna on October 10, 2009 at 5:23 pm said:\nIt is plausible to me that this is the first official mention of the imago.\nI didn\u2019t have full freedom to introduce it as smoothly as I would have liked, due to a combination of Hitherby_Admin wanting to update and rename the site and my own desire to link that to in-story events that might have been \u2026 spread out over another week or two, perhaps, otherwise.\nAh, that makes sense. Thank you :)\nI\u2019ve been spending most lunch breaks for months discussing the underlying meanings and implications of Hitherby entries with a friend. We have totally different interpretations of things, which is awesome, but we\u2019re both usually pretty sure we\u2019re missing things. This time, I realized that I could just ask ^^;\nearth-shaker poseidonmeredithsaulsid",

        "title": "Re-Opening a Trial with Further Evidence in the Cayman Islands | Hong Kong Lawyer",
        "raw_content": "In the recent case of In the matter of Shanda Games Limited, FSD 14 OF 2016 (NSJ) (July 2017) it was held by Justice Segal that the Court has jurisdiction to admit new evidence and order a further hearing (and thereby re-open the trial) after the trial and after the Court has handed down its judgment in draft, before the sealing of the Court\u2019s order (any appeal would be against the order of the Court and not the judgment). However, in the circumstances, the Learned Judge declined to do so.\nThe test to be applied in the Cayman Islands is*:\nThe principle to be applied generally is the overriding objective to deal with cases justly and at proportionate cost. This involves dealing with cases expeditiously and fairly and allocating an appropriate share of the Court\u2019s resources to a dispute.\nIn cases involving an application to call new evidence and have a new trial, the Court should take into account the leading case of Ladd v Marshall. In the case of applications before the trial judge rather than the Court of Appeal, the Ladd v Marshall factors should be applied more leniently. Other \u201cpowerful factors\u201d in the applicant\u2019s favour would be needed to justify the application.\nIn the present case the summons to re-open was issued shortly before the draft judgment was received by counsel, however, the Learned Judge had completed the draft judgment and reached a decision on the petition. The handing down of a judgment in draft does not of itself preclude the granting of the application or determine how the Court should exercise the jurisdiction. Once the judgment has been handed down then a further issue arises, namely the question of reconsideration and the impact of depriving a successful party of a judgment already rendered needed to be taking into account when the Court is applying the overriding objective.\nIn order to justify re-opening the trial and allowing further expert evidence to be introduced the Petitioner must show (in the absence of fraud) that the problems with the expert witness evidence are sufficiently serious such that the Court\u2019s decision cannot stand.\nThis decision from the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands will be of particular relevance to Hong Kong practitioners advising Cayman Island incorporated companies, as these companies are potentially exposed to litigation in the Cayman Islands courts. The company in this case, Shanda Games Limited, is itself a leading online game developer based in Shanghai that became embroiled in litigation with former shareholders following a take private merger that resulted in the company being delisted from the NASDAQ. There has been a significant upward trend in litigation by shareholders of Cayman Islands incorporated companies who dissent from take private mergers of listed PRC companies and ask the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands to determine the \u201cfair value\u201d of their shares.\n* Citing the Supreme Court in L-B (Children) (Care Proceedings: Power to Revise Judgment) [2013] UKSC 8, [2013] 1 WLR 634; Charlesworth v Relay Roads Ltd [2000] 1 WLR 230; Vringo Infrastructure Inc v ZTE (UK) Ltd [2015] EWHC 214; and Malitskiy v Stockman Interhold SA BVIHC 2015/0008",

        "raw_content": "The Home Depot Dartmouth Crossing was a popular shopping destination leading up to the holidays and we are very happy about that. Through their Holiday Orange Door Campaign the team in orange aprons raised nearly $2,500 for HomeBridge. This money was raised in just over three weeks by selling $2 paper doors at the checkout.\nThe in-store campaign was part of the Orange Door Project which is The Home Depot Canada Foundation\u2019s response to one of the most urgent social issues facing Canadians today - youth homelessness. In 2014 they committed to raising $20 million to fight youth homelessness in Canada. Their national total may not be completely calculated yet, but we can tell you that the Dartmouth Crossing location has raised over $32,000 for HomeBridge in the past 5 years through this campaign.\nThe money raised through the Orange Door Project is intended to help organizations across the country that provide safe, stable housing and life skills development programs that lead to brighter futures for homeless and at-risk youth. HomeBridge was very grateful to be one of the local beneficiaries of this campaign. The money raised over the past five years has funded many positive experiences and opportunities for the vulnerable youth who live in the HomeBridge Community.\nYouth-in-care are typically well behind their peers when it comes to education and cultural and recreational experiences. This puts them at a disadvantage both socially and academically and often results in low self-esteem. Thanks to the support of The Home Depot we have been able to change this reality for the young people who live in the HomeBridge Community. Their support has funded cultural and educational outings for the students in our on-site school program, Bridges for Learning. It has also helped to fund HomeBridge\u2019s Summer Recreation Program which offers the young people fun and therapeutic outings throughout the summer months when they have more free time to fill.\nThese outings are as meaningful as they are fun. Whether the young people are learning about the history of African Nova Scoitan\u2019s at the Black Cultural Center for Nova Scotia or zip-lining at Ontree Fun and Adventure Park, they are broadening their experience, learning and growing. They learn valuable life-skills, like trust and commitment, while climbing the rope course and build positive relationships with the Youth Care Workers who are there to support them while having fun and experiencing new things. They discover parts of Nova Scotia they have never visited and learn about farming and agriculture while picking apples in the Annapolis Valley. They also discover strengths and talents they weren\u2019t aware they had while trying new things. All of this helps them move beyond their current circumstances and towards a brighter future.\nWe would like to thank our friends at The Home Depot Dartmouth Crossing and all of the generous customers who supported their campaign. You have made a big difference in the lives of the vulnerable youth who live in the HomeBridge Community.",

These investigations are often sparked by consumer complaints online, warranty claim data, or petitions from consumer safety agencies.\nWill NHTSA Ever Investigate My Paint Peeling? My Radio Failing?\nNHTSA and ODI will only look into safety-related defects \u2013 busted axles, engine fires, tires popping off, etc. That means that complaints regarding peeling paint, radio gremlins, or poor infotainment \u2013 no matter how widespread \u2013 won\u2019t be investigated.\nWhat Should I Do When My Car is Being Investigated?\nWait.

Petition analysis where petitions for defect investigations or reviews of recalls are performed. 3. The actual investigation which is split into a preliminary evaluation and an engineering analysis. 4. Judgement day where a determination will be made on if a recall is needed.",

        "raw_content": "Meet the IABC/BC winners of the Silver Leaf Awards 2014\nBack to Blogs By Glauce Fleury | Connect Editor, Internal Communications Posted: December 1, 2014\nFour IABC/BC members are among the winners of the Silver Leaf Awards 2014. Focused on recognizing outstanding work produced by communicators, the Silver Leaf had more than 140 entries from across Canada. Twenty entries\u2014including the BC winners\u2019 projects\u2014were honoured with the Award of Excellence and 20, with the Award of Merit. The recognition from their peers is important, the BC winners agree. But there are many benefits of entering.\n\u201cFrom the writing of the work plan, to the detailed judging feedback, the process deepened my understanding of strategic communications and made me want to do it all over again,\u201d says Cara McGregor, director of communications at the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for B.C, one of the winners in the digital communication channels category.\nAnnually, the Office receives thousands of inquiries, but its website hadn\u2019t been updated in eight years. \u201c[It was an] opportunity to make the website more user-friendly and fine-tune our content based on audience research,\u201d McGregor says. With the new website, she sought to empower citizens to exercise their information and privacy rights, and give public and private organizations the tools to better understand and follow the law.\nThe work developed by two communicators from Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) addressed staff morale and engagement at Vancouver General Hospital\u2019s emergency room, where staff felt overwhelmed and underappreciated. \u201cWe leveraged a first-in-Canada documentary series made in one of our busiest emergency departments,\u201d said VCH director of public affairs, Gavin Wilson, referring to the project recognized in the employee engagement category. \u201cThe series helped engage staff in an interesting, interactive and unique way, and make them feel special.\u201d\nAccording to the communication leader Tiffany Akins, who co-developed the project at VCH, entering awards provides feedback that can be useful, either for validation or for providing helpful suggestions for improvement. \u201cWe both mostly focus on public affairs and communication to the public, so to be recognized for excellent staff/internal communications is something we\u2019re really proud of,\u201d says Akins.\nWith an entry in the government communication category, the consultant Therese Mickelson developed the Richmond Green Cart campaign, an essential component of the City\u2019s commitment to support increased recycling. \u201c[The program] was designed to increase understanding of why recycling is important, inform residents about how to use the Green Cart effectively and provide tips to reduce waste,\u201d she says.\nAs Mickelson states, the award reaffirms that communication is integral to achieving the organization\u2019s vision\u2014within six months of the campaign, the City of Richmond had already reached its goal to reduce waste going to landfill by 70% in 2015. \u201cIt also gives the client bragging rights, as their commitment to communication and investing in their residents is the foundation of their success, which is what matters most.\u201d\nThe Silver Leaf Awards program is managed jointly by the Canada East and Canada West Regions of the IABC. Canadian members represent 32% of the global membership. Congratulations to the winners!",

        "raw_content": "A film by Calvin Skaggs\nWORKING FOR CHANGE: DOCUMENTING HARD TIMES (1929-1941)\n\"If you have a camera in your hand, that camera is to be used to make clear the truth.\"\u2014Leo Hurwitz\nWorking for Change explores the birth of the social documentary, featuring interviews with several of the people who helped define and shape the form.\nWhile newsreels carried novelty and feel-good stories, left-leaning filmmakers such as Leo Hurwitz and Leo Seltzer founded the Workers Film and Photo League - an organization devoted to sounding the alarm on economic conditions, and to show Americans what life was really like for both urban and rural poor. Police night-stick blows often added shakiness to their footage as they captured evictions, breadlines, and mass protests - and, on at least one occasion, were arrested themselves. While their films did not get regular distribution, the WFPL team were tireless in booking churches, halls and any other venues they could find to hold screenings - and were known to travel with a projector hooked up to a car battery.\nThe mood changed after Roosevelt's election and the advent of the New Deal. The administration agreed to fund Pare Lorentz's classic The Plow That Broke the Plains, about the dust bowl. But Lorentz was no filmmaker, and he called on the Film and Photo League veterans to craft the film. His crew - Hurwitz, Paul Strand and Ralph Steiner - rebelled against Lorentz. They wanted a critique of capitalism, while he was more interested in stunning visuals and music. Still, the film was a box office hit, and led to Lorentz's follow-up, The River, which highlighted problems of flooding and erosion.\nSome in the US Congress were upset about government-funded documentaries, and the practice soon died out.\nThat wasn't the case in the UK, where Scottish pioneer John Grierson (who coined the word documentary) produced enduring and original portraits of the working class. Films such as Housing Problems, Night Mail, and Coal Face, demonstrated the importance of working people in maintaining the well-oiled, highly-functional social machine of British society. For audiences in the UK, these early documentaries showed working and poor people as human beings for the first time - and not just as comedic relief.\nDespite the lack of support from the US government, Hurwitz, Seltzer and others stayed in the documentary game, forming the country's first non-profit production house. Unfortunately the release of their opus Native Land, which investigated abuse during the labor struggles of the 1930s, coincided with the attack on Pearl Harbor - after which the country focused on the war, rather than on the struggles of the recent past.\nFeaturing interviews with several members of the first wave of documentary filmmaking, as well as contributions from historians and critics, and a wealth of footage from the early social documentaries, Working for Change is essential viewing for anyone interested in film history, and the power of media as a voice for truth-telling.\n\"For those doubting the power of documentaries to have a social impact, TO TELL THE TRUTH should give them an idea.\"\u2014Andy Webster, NEW YORK TIMES \"Week Ahead\"\n\"A very important non-fiction series ... Fascinating ... Probing ... Two must-see documentary-on-documentary episodes.\"\u2014Jennifer Merin, ABOUT.COM GUIDE TO DOCUMENTARIES\n\"What a great idea ... About nonfiction filmmaking, but that's just the through-line... This series is a new way of looking at history.\"\u2014Tom Roston, DOC SOUP\n\"A unique intersection of art, reality, and social impact, Working for Change is an outstanding resource for courses in film history, social movements, and mass communication. It is also a great choice for academic and public libraries.\"\u2014Educational Media Reviews Online\n\"I highly recommend WORKING FOR CHANGE (1929-1941). It not only belongs in academic and public library collections, but could also provide an excellent resource in the classroom, particularly in relation to film history, social movements, government, and mass communication.\"\u2014Leonardo Reviews\n2015 Stranger Than Fiction, IFC Center NY\nOfficial Selection, DOC NYC Festival at IFC Center, New York City\nFilm History, Historiography, History (U.S.), History (World), Social Movements",

        "raw_content": "September 25, 2018 | impacthoustonchurch | Make A Comment | Impact News\nBy Tyler Lemmons\nAs we begin our sixth year of Impact Mentoring I would love to share the story of Gabby and Regina, a mentoring pair who have been together all five years of the program.\nGabby was one of the first people I went to for advice when I was dreaming up the mentoring program. Gabby grew up at Impact and throughout her adolescence was mentored by several different people at Impact. She still keeps in touch with most of them and speaks about how much they impacted her as she was growing up. So when I approached her about the idea of starting Impact Mentoring, she was immediately on board and grateful for the opportunity to give another child what she was given growing up.\nRegina has been part of Impact her whole life. I first remember her when she was in red group (kindergarten) at VBS \u2013 I usually knew best the kids that spent a lot of time out in the hall, if you know what I mean. Gabby had directed VBS that summer and gotten to know Regina, so when she decided to mentor, she asked specifically for Regina. Regina is now twelve and no longer known for how often she is sent to the hall. Each year of their mentoring relationship has looked a little different based on schedules, but as Regina get older, they have been able to do more things together. This past year, Gabby would pick Regina up from Impact and take her to her house to cook dinner. They also share a love for reading. Gabby is a Vice Principal at an elementary school and has previously been a reading teacher. Throughout their time together, she has given Regina several books and Regina (without always admitting it) has grown a deep love for reading.\nTheir relationship is exactly what I was hoping and praying for when we started the mentoring program. It is truly amazing to see the fruit of these relationships and I can\u2019t wait to see how they evolve through the next five years. And if you live in the Houston area, we still need more mentors!

It will total 55,000 square meters of working space, and be home to roughly 1,500 employees.\nThe facility will reportedly possess a manufacturing capacity of about 5 GWh \u2014 putting it amongst the largest such battery factories in the world when completed.\nIn a reply to a question by one of our readers (tip of the hat to Philip W), the developer stated (as translated from German): \u201cHello, if everything goes as planned we will produce up to 80 million Lithium-Ion batteries in various sizes in Karlstein. The overall capacity will be about 5 GWh\u201d\nI\u2019m not sure if the comparison with the Tesla Motors and Panasonic Gigafactory is really the right one, but it will certainly be a notable facility once up and running.\nWriting on subjects such as these, I can\u2019t help but be slightly amused by the apparent rivalry between Tesla Motors and many German manufacturers. Still, that psuedo-rivalry doesn\u2019t seem to have resulted in prominent manufacturers such as BMW making any truly strong moves into the electric vehicle market.\nWhile it\u2019s worth applauding BMW for the i3 to some degree (especially since it has sold better than expected), it isn\u2019t really much of a competitor for Tesla in any real regard \u2014 it\u2019s doesn\u2019t have the range or power to really rival Tesla\u2019s vehicles. I can\u2019t help but wonder when the German automakers will begin taking the electric vehicle market more seriously?",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m an author, a publisher and a blogger. I\u2019ve written 3 poetry books (Blurred Vision, Hindsight 20/20 and Honesty Box) and am preparing for the release of my first novel, Fortune Cookie. I started my own publishing company in 2013, called 7th Sign Publishing. I also blog about music, current news topics and inspiration on my website, www.peauxeticexpressions.com.\nI really don\u2019t have a specific place, but I\u2019d say preferably in a quiet space or somewhere I can be alone to sort out my thoughts.\nI would have to say music for me. It may seem counterproductive but I like listening to music while I write, but with nothing else on.\nFrom an author\u2019s perspective, especially for nonfiction, novel writing, Eric Jerome Dickey\u2019s Milk In My Coffee is one of those novels that\u2019s timeless to me. I saw a lot of myself in the main character of that book and really enjoyed it. As a person, Blink by Malcolm Gladwell is a great read from a psychological aspect. It has many simple truths that we often don\u2019t realize are around us. I\u2019m currently reading Heaven Is For Real by Todd Burpo. I\u2019ve had it since before the movie came out, but I\u2019ve been so busy. It\u2019s on my to-do list to finish in the next couple weeks. I love the transparency and innocence of that book. It reminds me to slow down and enjoy the moments of life.\nLife experiences have a way of being incorporated in my writing. It may not always be my experience, but it could be one from someone close to me or even a complete stranger. As long as there is life, there is always something to write about.\nI want to be one of the catalysts to change people\u2019s lives for the better. I want them to feel inspired and motivated in some way, from something they read from me.\nI try to always have a sense of transparency in my writing. I think that\u2019s how you connect with people. One thing I try to stay away from, which is a way to improve in itself, is writing to please the masses. I know that not everyone will like my style of writing, but I can\u2019t write for the sake of what will get the most attention. People\u2019s tastes are fickle and as soon as a person caters to that hot thing of the moment, their mind is already on something different.\nYou have a Kickstarter launching June 5th, what can you tell us about it?\nYes, I do! The Kickstarter is in support of my upcoming novel, Fortune Cookie. I\u2019m extremely excited about that. It just launched today and it\u2019s a creative way for me to interact with my readers and give them exclusive rewards that will only be available through this Kickstarter campaign. The pledges raised through Kickstarter will help alleviate much of the marketing and promotional expenses that have to be made once the book is published.\nThose who back the project will also get a chance to receive Fortune Cookie before the official release date. My experience throughout this campaign will be documented in a blog, which will tie in to my graduate studies and Capstone project at The University of Texas at Dallas. Overall, I really want to help change people\u2019s perceptions of crowd funding. It sounds better to say \u201cfan funding\u201d to me, because that\u2019s what it truly is. It\u2019s no different than buying someone\u2019s CD on an iTunes pre order. We pay upfront to eventually get the CD. Here, fans will pay upfront to get my novel, plus have a chance to get some other great rewards along with it. It\u2019s a win win situation.\nWhere can someone get involved? All of the information is on my Kickstarter page. The name of my project is \u201cFortune Cookie: A Novel\u201d. Here is the link as well \u2013 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1458478645/fortune-cookie-a-novel\nWhat kind of incentives are you offering up?\nI\u2019m offering backers signed copies of the book. In addition to that, I\u2019m offering a limited edition signed copy with an alternate ending, T-shirts and even the chance to have their names featured in Fortune Cookie. All of the reward tiers really offer a great deal for their value. There are a few others too which can be seen on my page.\nWhat are the deadlines you have set yourself?\nThe Kickstarter for Fortune Cookie will run for 32 days and end on July 7th.\nNever give up. Just because you may not get picked up by a large, traditional publishing company or get the kind of response to your writing like you want, keep pushing. Many successful authors will attest to the fact that they heard plenty of no\u2019s before they got one yes. Don\u2019t wait for doors to be opened for you. Push through them yourself.\nThere just may be another sequel to Fortune Cookie in the works. I haven\u2019t decided yet. I\u2019ll always write poetry as well, because that\u2019s how I first started writing. I probably won\u2019t release another poetry book soon, because I haven\u2019t been inspired to go that route at the moment. Blogging is always fun for me too, so I\u2019ll be thinking of ways to continue that but also evolve it and keep it fresh. But 7th Sign Publishing does have an outstanding book coming out next month on July 18th. It\u2019s called How to Win the Dating Game by John Patrick Adams (www.johnpatrickadams.com). It\u2019s a great read that\u2019s going to stir up a lot of discussion.\nYes, I think book covers are so important. It\u2019s the first thing the reader sees. My goal is to have a cover that makes people want to stop and pick up the book. However, similar to writing though, I think if people try too hard to make a great cover it may have the opposite effect. Enticing cover art should almost involuntarily draw you in. It should be a natural reaction to want to know more about that book because of the cover.\nI don\u2019t read for leisure very often now because of grad school. Most of the books I\u2019m reading right now are for class. But my favorite genres are suspense, self-improvement and psychology based, nonfiction books.\nThanks for taking the time to answer our questions. Best of luck in the future, Carlos.\nTags: Carlos Harleaux, Fortune Cookie, Interview, Kickstarter Categories: Interviews",

        "raw_content": "Buddhists Go to the White House\nBY HOZAN ALAN SENAUKE\nPhoto by Philip Rosenberg\nThe streets of Washington DC were lined with blossoms and greenery, the prospect of promise. One hundred thirty Buddhist teachers, monks, nuns, laymen and laywomen, academics, and organizers met on Thursday May 14 for the first \u201cWhite House\u2014U.S. Buddhist Leadership Conference,\u201d the subject at hand being \u201cVoices in the Square\u2014Action in the World.\u201d\nWhile I am ambivalent about a designation of Buddhist \u201cleaders\u201d \u2014 and can think of many other friends and elders who could have, should have been in the room\u2014in this event the notion of leadership cuts in two directions. A remarkably diverse group of women and men were meeting to shape a common understanding of how to bring our various Buddhist practices into a troubled world. At the same time there was a unique opportunity to be in dialogue with White House and State Department staff interested in finding Buddhist allies to work on issues of climate change, racial justice, and peacebuilding.\nPoint person for this all-day event was William Aiken, public affairs director for Soka Gakai International, with help from Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi of Buddhist Global Relief, Dr. Sallie King of James Madison University, the International Buddhist Committee of Washington DC, and Dr. Duncan Ryuken Williams of University of Southern California. With all their respective contacts and networks, this was a remarkable gathering, with wide and unique diversity in race, nationality, gender, and Buddhist traditions.\nBeginning with welcomes and a short meditation, the morning program at George Washington University featured brief presentations on some broad and pressing concerns. A video from Mary Evelyn Tucker and a strong analysis by Bhikkhu Bodhi laid out the Four Noble Truths of Climate Change. Rev. angel Kyodo williams of the Center for Transformative Change made the compelling connection between climate justice and racial justice, saying, \u201cWe have in our hearts the willingness to degrade the planet because we are willing to degrade human beings.\u201d\nEven more briefly we heard accounts of social change work taken on by a half dozen communities and organizations among us. These presentations could have continued productively for days.\nAfter a vegetarian box lunch and a brief time to make new acquaintances in four topical breakout groups, we all strolled a few blocks to meet with staff at the \u201cworking White House\u201d of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. There was a quick hand-off to White House staffers of two Buddhist declarations \u2014 one on climate change and another on racial justice. Then followed two and a half hours of staff briefings along with sometimes pointed Q & A between Buddhists and staff.\nOur discussants were: Melissa Rogers of the White House Office of Faith-based and Community Partnerships; Dr. Shaun Casey, the State Dept.\u2019s Special Representative. for Religion and Global Affairs; Rev. Susan Hayward, Interim Director, Religion and Peacebuilding, US Institute of Peace: and Angela Barranco from the White House Council for Environmental Quality (CON).\nThree things stand out from the day. First, that we gathered in collective concern for compelling issues that threaten the wellbeing of all sentient beings, not the interests of Buddhists alone. Second, the rich opportunity and frustrating brevity of being with so many friends and allies. Third that in the \u201cworking White House\u201d of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, we were able, Buddhist practitioners and White House staff together, to chant the four Bodhisattva vows, beginning with: \u201cBeings are numberless; I vow to save them.\u201d\nThe organizers\u2019 intention and participants\u2019 hope is that this would be the first in a series of meetings in Washington. For this first step to lead in a productive direction that must be the case. It is good to meet a first time but it is only through relationship\u2014among ourselves as Buddhist practitioners and with the ear of those in government\u2014that we will accomplish anything and turn to the work of bodhisattvas.\nIn his eloquent closing words, Jack Kornfield drew our attention to a quotation at the foot of one of our White House briefing pages. He likened it to the teachings of our great and ancient Tibetan teacher Shantideva. But the source is rather different:\n\u201cInstead of driving us apart, our varied beliefs can bring us together to feed the hungry and comfort the afflicted; to make peace where there is strife and rebuild what has broken; to lift up those who have fallen on hard times.\u201d \u2014President Barack Obama, February 2008",

        "raw_content": "My almost 9 yr old was telling his 5 and 7 yr old brothers about a book he just read on the Gold Rush.\n\u201cThe Gold Rush happened a long time ago. I can\u2019t remember the date exactly but I think it was in the middle 1800\u2019s. I do know that they only had black and white tv way back then.\u201d\n\u201cWe should ask Mom. I\u2019m sure she remembers.\u201d\nguilt and time, too much of one and not enough of the other\nI feel really weird emailing, because a) I don\u2019t usually comment on blogs that I read or email or contact those people who create them and b) the irony of what I\u2019m writing to you about and the fact that I\u2019m sitting here emailing you while I should be doing something else, is not lost on me. My problem: Guilt and lack of time.\nFor a starters I have three children,ages 4 and under, and am pregnant with number 4, who is also the lucky last.\nI suddenly feel I don\u2019t have enough time. I mean before, I didn\u2019t have enough time to go to the park for an hour or so. Or, to make an extravagant dinner, or to sit down and have a coffee and relax with a book etc etc. Now - I feel like I don\u2019t have time to do the simple things - like spend 5 mins reading a book, or playing trains, or colouring.\nI can\u2019t do all that and make dinner, pay bills, clean the house etc. I can\u2019t do any of that, it seems anymore and now and then I am struck by the thought \u201cGood God, what have I done?\u201d Why, would I make my children suffer further by having another child? I have become impatient and controlling and I can almost hear the clock ticking in my head throughout the day. It\u2019s not like this everyday but today has been a bad day and when there is a bad day, the guilt is kind of choking.\nMy questions (finally): How do you deal with time management? How do you find that 5 mins in the day for each of them? How do you stop saying \u201cI\u2019ll help you in a minute?/ I\u2019ll be there in a minute/ I\u2019d love to play Snakes and Ladders\u2026 in a minute\u201d Do you get it all done in a day? Do I sound like a bad parent? Because sometimes I wonder.\nThanks for making me feel human. Your blog really does make it feel like you can parent a whole bunch of kids with a smile on your face. I just don\u2019t know where mine went.\nThe Non-smiling mother\nFirst off, you do not sound like a bad mother. You sound like a normal mother, having a bad day. Pregnancy can do that to you. It can string the bad days end upon end, punctuated with periods of fatigue, nausea, and did I mention the fatigue?\nPeople always ask me how I manage with 7 children, but truthfully it was much more challenging physically when they were all young. Too young to do anything for themselves and they all relied on me for everything. I think that is one of the things people don\u2019t realize before they have children of their own is how exhausting it can be taking care of little people.\nThey need to eat meals (several in a day!), and have snacks, and be entertained, diapers changed, baths drawn\u2026 then multiply it by several young ones and you have a recipe for feeling overwhelmed.\nThe simple answer is PLANNING! PLANNING! PLANNING! Did I mention planning? And probably lowering some of your expectations.\nIt is easy to say, but always more diffcult to implement. I\u2019ll focus on two of the things that you mention: setting time aside for your children, and meal preparation.\nI make doing something wih my children a priority on my list. Yes, I usually write a list, particularly when I am feeling overwhelmed. To me feeling overwhelmed hampers my ability to prioritize and make good decisions. So I will write on the top of my list, before the chores and such, \u201cGo outside and jump rope with the children,\u201d or whatever it is that they have been wanting me to do. Sometimes it is play a board game which makes me want to gouge my eyeballs out with a blunt butter knife, but they enjoy it so. The game playing, not eyeball gouging.\nI\u2019ll give today as an example. Right now it is 9:30 in the morning. I have been up since 7:00. Most of that time I have been writing on my computer, pausing to throw some laundry in, tell children to get dressed, and getting breakfast ready (cold cereal today, easy for everyone). I notice the bathroom needs to be cleaned, but it wasn\u2019t a priority on my list today so I stick it on the bottom of the list. If I get to it, I get to it\u2026 if not it\u2019ll wait.\nI have written 10-12:00 as outside time. The kids want me to go outsode with them while they show me their new jump rope tricks, which I can only hope doesn\u2019t involve lassoing and hog tying anyone. So at 10:00, I will turn my computer off and go out with them. Even if it kills me.\nI used to write on paper, but now I have a nice journal that I write in. I make lists, jot down blog ideas, write funny things that the children say. Sometimes I am forced to write in crayon because I can\u2019t find a pen or pencil, but overall it works for me. I keep it near me all day. So far I haven\u2019t lost it and the children seem to respect it more than random sheets of paper because it is book-like.\nOn to meal preparation. If you have read my other blog you know that cooking is not one of my strong points. In fact I doubt that there is a household chore I like less. So my goal is to prepare nutritous meals, which also taste good to small people, that require the least amount of my time.\nThe crockpot is my friend. And so is my bread maker, I actually have two of these. You set it all up first thing in the morning and you will not believe what a load is off of your mind for the rest of the day. Dinner done and cooking by 9:00 am is the BEST feeling ever.\nI bring my meat home from the store break it up into freezer bags in portions sized for our family, pour in a marinde, and stick it in the freezer. Defrost it in the refrigerator, or if you are like me, the counter, and it is ready to cook. Add a couple of sides or use your bread maker, and you are done. The times I don\u2019t do this and just toss the meat in the freezer in it\u2019s store packaging, I regret it.\nI would encourage you to set aside 4 half hour blocks of time during the day. In fact it is a challenge I have for you. A half hour for each child and one for you. Pick a time and an activity for each of you that can be contained within an half an hour. When it is your turn do whatever it takes to get your time. Put on a video and give them some baggies of dried cereal. Do not do any chores during your time. Try not to even think about them. Do something that will rejuvenate you.\nThen anything else you can manage will be gravy. It will feel as if you are really accomplishing spending time doing something with your children, you will be able to prioritize your chores and get rid of some of that guilt.\nGood luck. Remember the mama mantra: This too shall pass. And it will.\nThank you all for coming to visit my new blog.\nI have moved some posts over from various other places to get the blog a lived in a feel. Posts that set the tone for the way this blog will be. You may have already read some of them, or you may not have. But you can always re read the ones that you liked. And really why wouldnt you want to?\nFrom here on out they will all be brand new posts.\nSo stop by daily and you can be my new best friend.\nAre you looking thinner? Your hair is fabulous today.\nSo go on and scroll down and read about how much I love books, especially free books.\nWe destroy the love of learning in children, which is so strong when they are small, by encouraging and compelling them to work for petty rewards\u2013gold stars, or papers marked 100 and tacked to the wall, or A\u2019s on report cards, or honor rolls, or dean\u2019s lists or Phi Beta Kappa keys\u2013in short, for the ignoble satisfaction of feeling that they are better than someone else.\n-John Holt\nThis quote explains one of the reasons that homeschooling appeals to me. John Holt is one of the first advocates of homeschooling whose work I read. As I read through the first book of his I discovered, I found myself shouting, Yes! That\u2019s it exactly!\u201d And I kept smacking Rob and forcing him to wake up and listen to me read passages out of the book out loud, which he loved.\nI do think that it is true that when you reward people, and children in particular, for doing things it makes whatever you are trying to encourage seem like it is something that is not rewarding enough on it\u2019s own. This is why I generally stay away from the book reading rewards things that give a number to shoot for. What good is reading 150 books in a school year, if your focus is on the number not the quality or understanding that goes into truly appreciating literature. Isn\u2019t reading and digesting and discussing a handful of books more important in the grand scheme of things?\nPerhaps I am lucky. I have children who thrive in this loose sort of environment. They are all voracious readers, who often have things they can teach me. I know, it shocks me also!\nPerhaps it is true that I am becoming lazy in my old age. Clinging less to the idealized notions of parenting that I once held so staunch and rigid. Maybe I have become more of a realist. Most likely it is a combination of the above.\nTo the point, today I was in Barnes&Noble and noticed their summer reading program. Read any 8 books, fill out the form, then come to the store and pick out your free book.*\nAnd I decided that more than my idealized notions, I LOVE free things. I really, really do. So I weighed the ramifications of picking up these forms off of the table.\nOn one hand a free book for something that my children are already doing. On the other hand, it\u2019s a book, not a movie pass or a trip to the roller rink** which sends the message that a book is something you must suffer through in order to earn something that is fun. On the other hand, why yes I do have three hands I am a mother remember, if I am truly trusting in my children as partners in their education, shouldn\u2019t I give them a say about it?\nAnd so I decided on the latter. I picked up the forms and brought them home.\nThey already want to know if we could go back this week and get their free books.\n*from a limited selection, which, eh\n** not that we have a roller rink near us, though I would love to go if they did and put my comb in my back pocket, feather my hair, and skate around listening to Endless Love and wondering why I don\u2019t have aboyfriend who wants to roller skate next to me with our hands in each other\u2019s back pockets.\nOne gallon jug of white vinegar: $2.49\nBox of baking soda: $.55\nSingle serving bottle of soda: $1.09\nStep Four Originally uploaded by the big yellow house.\nGetting to watch the excitement of your children as they direct their own learning : PRICELESS\nGetting hit in the head by the cork as it flies out of the soda bottle: occupational hazard\nan interview with Jacquelyn Mitchard, mother of seven\n(photo from author\u2019s website)\nJacquelyn Mitchard is the mother of seven children, as well as an author of numerous best selling books, and she has graciously agreed to take time from her busy schedule promoting her newest book, Cage Of Stars, to answer my questions about being a writer and mother to many children.\nAs a mother of seven children also, I find you and your work inspiring.\nI read that when your first husband died of cancer, well-meaning friends and family urged you to take a \u201creal\u201d job, yet you persisted in writing your first novel, THE DEEP END OF THE OCEAN, (a book which ended up a number one bestseller list and which Oprah chose it for her first book club selection.) How did the experience of being picked by Oprah change your life?\nIt made it possible for me to attempt to tell stories for a living \u2013 a privilege that few writers have, even if has meant some sacrifices, both personal and financial. We have to run a very tight ship and be careful; but we also have given our children some experiences that others don\u2019t get to have, such as going to Europe when I have research there. Other than that, it hasn\u2019t changed me. I don\u2019t think of myself as \u201cfamous.\u201d I don\u2019t think of myself as different \u2013 just more visible.\nHow do you find time to write with a house full of children? Do you have a set schedule of writing time set aside daily? What advice do you have for women who have a hard time taking time away from family to follow their passions?\nWell, the children are my passion, the primary thing in my life, except for my husband and family. My writing is a great love, but it is the way I make a living. And so, it comes after the children. There are times when I have to sacrifice time with them in order to do that job; but I try to do it during their school hours and at a desk downstairs that is apart from their \u201cstomping ground.\u201d If I really have to buckle down and churn hard at writing, I go to a residence called The Ragdale Foundation in northern Illinois, where I have total privacy and work ten or twelve hours a day. It\u2019s far enough away that I can\u2019t be involved with every minute of their lives; but it\u2019s close enough that I can come home in an emergency, and I have. Believe me, as soon as my back is turned, something invariably goes wrong! Sometimes, I think it\u2019s their way of making me see that they aren\u2019t very fond of my being away.\nI think all of us as mothers have had that experience! I have taken to saying to my children before I leave the house, \u201cDon\u2019t get hurt today. It is NOT a good day for going to the ER.\u201d If only they would listen to me.\nOn your blog you are very candid about missing out on special events with your children since you travel frequently. Do you think it\u2019s harder to be a working mom when you\u2019ve got a lot of children? How do you keep things from getting out of balance?\nI definitely think that it\u2019s more difficult now that I have more children. When there were fewer and they were younger, I could easily take them out of a few days of primary school, and take one with me for some of my book-tour events. Now that many of the kids are older; and even the younger ones have such heavy demands at school that I can\u2019t justify doing that anymore. And now that my assistant has a very young child of her own, she can\u2019t travel with me and help out with the kids \u2013 except very rarely \u2013 so they end up sad and I end up sad and feeling guilty, too. And yet, they do understand that this is necessary for me to support them, and that their dad misses me, too. What\u2019s the saddest thing of all is when I come home and they are just so darned okay! They say they\u2019re glad to see me; but when they cry out at night, it\u2019s for Chris. I guess that\u2019s a tribute to Chris, as a great dad, but it\u2019s made for some tears for me. Of course, I love meeting readers; and I love seeing the effect my book has on people \u2013 so it\u2019s a dilemma.\nIt is such a double edge sword, isn\u2019t it? I never knew before I had children how much mommy guilt I would feel, about things that I logically shouldn\u2019t even feel guilty about. Speaking of children,you also are the writer of several children\u2019s books. Do you have any plans to write more?\nI do! Another picture book is coming out next year, and my first young adult novel comes out in January of 2007.\nCan you share some of your creative process with us? Do you base characters on real people, or draw from real life experiences for inspiration? Do your children inspire your work?\nMy children have inspired my work, yes. In fact, my first chapter book for children (\u2018Starring Prima!\u2019) was written backstage with the help of the children in the cast of \u2018A Christmas Carol,\u2019 when I appeared in that with two of my sons, who acted in community theater. And my adult novel last year, \u2018The Breakdown Lane,\u2019 was in part inspired by my son, Dan, who appears as the narrator \u201cGabe\u201d in the book. Many, many of my characters are inspired by people in real life; and many of my books are very loosely inspired by incidents that have happened in real life \u2013 by newspaper accounts, by stories people have told me that haunt me. Most of those incidents aren\u2019t at all recognizable.\nYou travel quite a bit, it seems. You mention Italy as one of your favorite places. I personally have had the desire to travel there and not yet made it. Do you travel with all of your children? Do you have any sage traveling wisdom you could share with us?\nWell, the sagest advice I can give is, do it! I think parents are intimidated by the idea of traveling with a large family \u2013 so they simply back off. What we\u2019ve done is to try to teach our children manners, consideration for others and to pitch in and be appropriate in other places. It doesn\u2019t always work, of course; but they aren\u2019t spoiled brats who disturb other people. Once when we were on Cape Cod, I heard a waitress pay another waitress to serve our table. And later that server came up to me and apologized. She said, \u201cI really am not used to seeing kids behave that well\u2026.\u201d Be prepared. Take lots of books and snack and magnets and go! My son Atticus had taken six plane trips by the time he was five months old!\nTell us about you as a child. Did you have a lot of siblings growing up? Did you always imagine that you would be a mother to a large brood?\nI had only one brother, and another who died as a child. Both my brother and I felt there was a shortage of \u201cus.\u201d I did want to have a \u201clarger\u201d family; but I never imagined having one this large! In fact, I wouldn\u2019t have had such a large family if my first husband had lived\u2026.but then, so many things would have been different. I don\u2019t mean that they would have been better or worse, but they would have been different!\nYour newest novel, CAGE OF STARS, was just released in May 2006, can you tell us a little bit about your book?\nIt\u2019s the story of a young Mormon girl who witnesses an event of shocking brutality when she is only thirteen. Unlike her parents, she hasn\u2019t the strength of will and faith to eventually turn to forgiveness and peace. She struggles with ideas of revenge, of making the man responsible for her family\u2019s pain suffer the same pain.\nWhere can we find updates about you and your appearances?\nAt my website, jacquelynmitchard.com!\nQuestions that I subject everyone to, because these are the things that people seem most curious about large families:\n1. How many gallons of milk and loaves of bread does your family go through a week? Are you ever caught up on the laundry?\nWe go through at least ten loaves of bread and seven gallons of milk each week; and no, I do five loads of laundry a day, in a washing machine the size of the Apollo 13; and I will never be caught up, ever. Maybe when I\u2019m 65 years old.\n2. How have you changed as a mother from your first to your seventh child?\nI know how much more important love is than influence. I know that love has more power than any number of speeches or directions, and setting an example of loving and respecting each other has more power than anything else. Kids are going to turn out who they are going to turn out to be no matter what. A parent can guide and suggest, but not command.\n3. What is your favorite snack that you take pains to hide from your children?\nI don\u2019t HAVE one! My husband is very protective of his Oreos though!\n4. When I am home my favorite thing to do with my children is:\nCook. It\u2019s so home-bringing.\nJacquelyn, thank you so much for taking time to answer my questions and share a bit of your life with us. I wish you the best of luck with all your new projects.\nknow someone you think I should interview for an upcoming column, email me at theBYH@yahoo.com.\nthe hover craft\nI have one son who is always looking for interesting science experiments to do. He is a voracious reader and wants to grow up to be one of those guys from the Myth Busters. He is interested in all things science.\nHe recently found a science experiment he wanted to do. It was an easy one and we had all the neccesary materials. (that has to be a first for an unplanned experiment)\nBut as he read me the directions and what the experiment was supposed to \u201cshow\u201d, I knew it wasn\u2019t going to live up to his expectations. I knew it and I tried to gently tell him that the experiment might not be all that is was cracked up to be in the book.\nThe project was to build a hover craft using a 12\u2033 diameter circle of cardboard, a soda bottle cap, and a balloon.\n1) You poke a hole through the center of the bottle cap,\n2) poke another hole through the center of the carboard circle,\n3) glue the bottle cap onto the cardboard so that the holes are aligned.\n(Glue takes a really really long time to dry by the way. A really long time. Go take a nap, eat a snack, and come back next week)\n4) After the glue dries, blow up the balloon and put it on the bottle cap.\n5) Then you are supposed to gently push the cardboard across the floor, where the force of the air will make the cardboard \u201chover\u201d over the ground.\nThink a very low tech air hockey table.\nWell it worked the way it was supposed to, which is to say, not that great. He thought it would actually hover off the ground enough for us to see daylight underneath it, like a flying saucer.\nOf course I had explained to him before we did the experiment what it would probably be like, but he still had high expectations. Doesn\u2019t he just look thrilled in the photo?\nLuckily most of the experiments he choses to do work out better for him than this one. It was still fun though.\nOh and on a somewhat related note, it is never a good thing to hear your 3yr old in the other room, saying out loud to no one in particular, \u201cThis is why little kids are not allowed to use glue.\u201d\nfirst round of questions\nHi! I\u2019ve been reading your other blog over the last few months & I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy it. I\u2019ve wondered a few things though\u2026first, what made you want to start a blog & what is your motivation for doing it now? Do you make any money for writing them or anything?\nWell, thank you. I always love getting positive email. It makes me feel connected to the people who are reading. I began writing a blog as an online journal and it was only after writing for a few months that I discovered that there was a thriving community of great women writers out there. It was wonderful and made me feel less alone. And we all know that mothering can be a very lonely affair sometimes.\nI am still in awe of all the great people I have met through their blogs. People who make me laugh, make me think, or challenge me in some way.\nPaid? Haaaahahahahaha. Oh, sorry. No, I don\u2019t get paid for writing. Unless someone out their reading wants to pay me. Any takers? Ahem\u2026\nI do have ads up, and while I am extremely grateful for the revenue it produces, it isn\u2019t like I could live on it. But as advertisers become more aware of what a powerful medium blogs are they will be more inclined to pay for advertising space on them, including mine. So, I\u2019m hopeful I\u2019ll be able buy shiny things\u2026 like braces for my children.\nAlso, I wondered what state you all live in, so I can kind of picture where all of these family adventures are taking place. I\u2019m guessing somewhere in the middle of the country\u2026\nI live in New England, which is in the northeast for those of you who are geographically challenged, not saying that you are. It is a small town that is a bit too far from the nearest large city to be considered a suburb. Some people in my town have small family farms with cows or horses. Other people are city folk who come to the town on weekends and holidays and walk around in their LL BEan garb and call everything \u201cquaint.\u201d\nI\u2019m not either one of those. It is all I can manage to keep seven children alive, so forget about animals. Also, I don\u2019t like to get dirty or sweat. Oh and I am not rich enough to have a weekend house, one house is mroe than enough to keep clean.\nThird, I just wondered out of curiosity if you really always say the things you write to people and your kids, or if you take poetic license and add stuff to make it more funny.\nEverything that I write is the true. Trust me I couldn\u2019t make this stuff up. People are crazy out there in the world. I wish I could make this sort of stuff up though, because then I would have enough of an imagination to finish writing my book.\nSo, just thought I\u2019d write and ask my random questions and tell you I have been enjoying your blog and often laugh out loud at the stuff\u2026 which is quite a feat! So, thanks for taking the time to share about your funny adventures in motherhood!\nWell, thank you. And keep on reading.\nA, B, C\u2026 something\nSome people post videos of their kids to show how smart and precocious they are. Me, I\u2019m just glad they are cute, because clearly MENSA is not going to be knocking down our door anytime soon.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2lEsLn5Mv0",

        "raw_content": "The pin action last week was heartburn inducing. However, Friday the S&P bounced off its 100 day moving average---this after bouncing off its 200 day moving average mid-February. In the process, it made a higher low. Of course, it had previously made a lower high; so there is a narrowing of its very short term trading action. Nonetheless, at this moment, it has more near-in downside support than it has upside resistance. So the technically speaking, I think prices are more likely to go higher than lower.\nhttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-03-04/jpm-suddenly-worried-retail-investors-are-no-longer-buying-fking-dip\nhttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-03-02/beware-there-no-liquidity-market-morgan-stanley-warns\nAbout the only positive thing one can say about the TLT chart is that it has bounced off the lower boundary of its long term uptrend twice; but it is not unusual for a long term trend to be challenged several times before breaking. Other than that, momentum is clearly to the downside.\nhttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-03-02/markets-junk-problem\nJim Grant on the bond market (medium and a must read):\nhttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-03-03/jim-grant-bond-markets-worldwide-are-living-their-own-hall-mirrors\nThe dollar has at least stabilized, which is to be expected if interest rates are rising. However, momentum is still to the downside, though it may be losing steam.\nGLD has held its short term uptrend and remains above its 100 and 200 day moving averages. That it has also made a recent lower higher is a little disconcerting; but as long as it holds the uptrend, I am encouraged.\nThe VIX remains above its 100 and 200 day moving averages and tested the lower boundary of its short term uptrend; however, it also failed to make a new high. So its very short term direction is a little cloudy. One thing we do know is that which ever way it breaks, it will likely be a bit stomach churning.\nhttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-03-02/never-mind-volatility-systemic-risk-rising\nhttps://www.advisorperspectives.com/dshort/updates/2018/03/02/the-q-ratio-and-market-valuation-february-update\nThe economic data in the week of 2/19 were generally upbeat though the primary indicators were negative. I rate it a neutral. In other news was the releases of the most recent FOMC minutes whose narrative was more negative than those from recent meetings. Nonetheless, investors chose to interpret it dovishly.\nLast week, the stats were poor and the primary indicators were awful. So I call it a negative. Score: in the last 125 weeks, forty-two were positive, fifty-nine negative and twenty-four neutral. The importance of the latest numbers is that(1) they continue the trend of slowing/stagnating economic activity, (2) but they are contradictory to the latest comments by new Fed head Powell, who in his latest testimony to congress talked up the strength in the economy and hence, the increasing likelihood of more rate hikes.\nWhen I read his comments, I couldn\u2019t help wondering what data that he was looking at given that the last nine weeks of stats has been sub-par. Jeffrey Snider has suggested in several links in these notes that the Fed\u2019s consistent misinterpretation of some of the data (1) was a function of the Fed\u2019s faulty Keynesian model and (2) the Fed\u2019s staff attempt to beat cognitive dissonant numbers so that they fit the model, however lacking in objectivity it is. In short, we could be facing a scenario in which the Fed is starting to rationalize the unwinding of QE---and its impact on the equity market.\nAnd making matters a bit more dicey, BOJ governor Kuroda hinted that the end of Japanese QE may be near (medium):\nhttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-03-02/kuroda-shocks-markets-hinting-qe-end-nikkei-usdjpy-tumble\nThe other newsworthy item was Trump\u2019s cranking up the rhetoric on steel and aluminum tariffs and will reportedly impose them this week. I have spent way too much time lamenting the potential consequences of a trade war to repeat myself. However, the data available on the pricing in steel and aluminum industries makes the Donald\u2019s threats a bit mystifying; that is, as explained below, these tariffs impact our allies much more than Trump\u2019s biggest trade whipping boy, China.\nThat said, I remain in the camp of those adamantly opposed to tariffs. Playing out before us is a huge gamble by Trump: is he right about the extent of price cheating and that there will be little response or is he about to start a real trade war? I have tried to link to as many opinions, pro and con, as I could find that might clarify the issue for us. But alas I see no strong indication one way or the other about how this ends.

(NASDAQ CM: ATTU), a leading provider of information availability software solutions, today reported its unaudited financial results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014.\nRecent Operational Highlights:\nAttunity Replicate is the largest revenue contributor making up 58% of total license revenue\nIncreased size and volume of Attunity Replicate deals, which include:\n$0.7 million deal with one of the largest European insurance companies\n$0.6 million deal with an American communication company\nClosed first deal of Attunity Maestro, a new Big Data management platform launched in early Q2 2014, for composing, conducting, and monitoring information flow across global enterprises\nIntroduced new Attunity Gold Client solution to accelerate SAP HANA\u00ae adoption and deployment\nGrew Cloud business with the availability of Attunity CloudBeam in AWS Marketplace, allowing a broader base of customers to easily access secure deployment of scalable Big Data loading and replication in the AWS Cloud\nFinancial Highlights for the Second Quarter of 2014, compared with the Second Quarter of 2013:\nTotal non-GAAP revenue grew 37% to $8.4 million, a record quarter of total revenue*\nTotal GAAP revenue grew 36% to $8.3 million\nTotal license revenue grew 34% to $4.4 million\nTotal non-GAAP maintenance and service revenue grew 41% to $3.9 million*\nCash and cash equivalents of $18.1 million as of June 30, 2014 compared with $16.5 million as of December 31, 2013\n\"Our accelerated revenue growth in the second quarter demonstrates the efficiency in which we are executing upon our strategy,\" stated Shimon Alon, Chairman and CEO of Attunity. \"Attunity Replicate continues to be a major contributor of revenue with Replicate license revenue increasing 66% for the quarter, and representing 58% of our total license revenue. Other significant accomplishments included the closing of our first deal for Attunity Maestro, which was just launched in early Q2 2014. Given the product's rapid progress, we expect Attunity Maestro sales to ramp up in the second half of 2014.\"\n\"We are benefiting from the swift onboarding of newly hired salespeople, who are already contributing to our growth. We have added key hires in certain geographic territories, who are dedicating focused attention to further cultivating our partnerships with Teradata, Microsoft, HP Vertica and Pivotal. These expanded sales teams contributed to the influx in effective referrals from our go-to-market partners, during the quarter. We continue to strengthen our relationship with Amazon as demonstrated by the new direct availability of Attunity CloudBeam, through AWS marketplace, providing easy, fast and secure data integration and replication solutions within the Cloud,\" continued Mr. Alon.\nAttunity continues to develop its sales force in order to take advantage of growing global demand, achieving record quarterly sales in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions. The majority of new sales recruits since the beginning of 2014, have already contributed to our revenue. The Company also bolstered the Inside Sales team, allowing the Company to convert incoming leads to closed deals more efficiently.\nAs market awareness for Attunity solutions increases, the Company has seen a substantial rise in customer leads. Marketing activity has expanded significantly since the beginning of 2014, as the Company participated in over a dozen conferences, tradeshows and customer appreciation events. The team has also increased its production of thought-leadership content such as whitepapers, webinars, and e-books to help educate the market about Attunity's technology as well as important industry trends.\nThe Company experienced significant interest in its newest data distribution and management solution, Attunity Maestro. The launch has immediately generated interest, including demos and proof-of-concepts, one of which already resulted in the closing of a deal within the quarter.\nDuring the quarter, Attunity Gold Client introduced support for SAP HANA\u00ae, allowing SAP users to accelerate data flow within SAP HANA and enable rapid deployment of SAP applications in the data center or in the Cloud. Recently, Colmobil Corporation, a large international distributor of commercial vehicles, has selected Gold Client, to enable their business-critical data initiative within its SAP environment.\nThe new release of Attunity CloudBeam was made available in AWS Marketplace during the quarter. CloudBeam now allows a broader base of customers to easily access the seamless and secure deployment of scalable Big Data loading and replication in the AWS Cloud.\nPartnership Activity\nThe continued focus and investments in partnering activity, which includes support from an expanded global sales presence within key regions, has resulted in more referrals and larger deals. This is evident in the progress of our relationships with partners such as Microsoft and Teradata, collectively generating a substantial amount of new customer opportunities during the quarter.\nWe have also enhanced our relationship with Amazon Web Services as we recently announced a 30-day free trial of Attunity CloudBeam for Amazon Redshift, on AWS Marketplace. This free trial is expected to fuel adoption of CloudBeam, providing an easy-to-use data loading and replication experience for Redshift users.\n\"We are committed to investing in our growth strategy with the hiring of additional sales people to service high demand areas like the EMEA region, further expanding upon key marketing efforts, strengthening our partner channels and enhancing our product portfolio,\" concluded Mr. Alon.\nFinancial Results for Q2 2014\nTotal revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased 36% to $8.3 million compared with $6.1 million last year.\nTotal non-GAAP revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased 37% to $8.4 million, compared with revenue of $6.1 million for the same period of 2013. This included license revenue which increased 34% to $4.4 million, compared with $3.3 million for the same period of 2013 and non-GAAP maintenance and service revenue which grew 41% to $3.9 million, compared with $2.8 million for the same period of 2013. Non-GAAP maintenance and service revenue includes approximately $0.1 million of acquired maintenance revenue from Hayes that was not recognized due to business combination accounting rules.*\nOperating loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $1.0 million, compared with an operating income of $0.1 million for the same period of 2013. This decline was primarily due to an increase in sales and marketing activities, research and development, amortization expenses associated with the acquisition of Hayes, general and administrative costs associated with the Company's growth strategy.\nNon-GAAP operating loss was $0.2 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared with a non-GAAP operating income of $0.4 million for the second quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP operating loss for the second quarter of 2014 excludes $0.8 million in expenses and amortizations associated with acquisitions and equity based compensation expenses. This is compared with a $0.3 million of similar expenses, for the same period last year.*\nNet loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $1.2 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared with a net income of $0.2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2013.\nNon-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $0.4 million, compared with a non-GAAP net income of $0.4 million for the same period last year. Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2014 excludes a total of $0.7 million in expenses mostly attributable to expenses and amortization associated with acquisitions and equity based compensation expenses. This is compared with $0.2 million in similar expenses, for the same period in 2013.*\nCash and cash equivalents were $18.1 million as of June 30, 2014, compared with $16.5 million as of December 31, 2013. Shareholders' equity was $29.5 million as of June 30, 2014, compared with $30.1 million as of December 31, 2013.\nThe Company's management will host a conference call today, July 24, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP information in evaluating and operating its business internally and as such has determined that it is important to provide this information to investors.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: our reliance on strategic relationships with our distributors, OEM, VAR and \"go-to-market\" and other business partners, and on our other significant customers; our ability to expand our business into the SAP market and the success of our Gold Client offering; risks and uncertainties relating to acquisitions, including costs and difficulties related to integration of acquired businesses; timely availability and customer acceptance of Attunity's new and existing products, including Attunity Maestro; changes in the competitive landscape, including new competitors or the impact of competitive pricing and products; a shift in demand for products such as Attunity's products; the impact on revenue of economic and political uncertainties and weaknesses in various regions of the world, including the commencement or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism; and other factors and risks on which Attunity may have little or no control. This list is intended to identify only certain of the principal factors that could cause actual results to differ. For a more detailed description of the risks and uncertainties affecting Attunity, reference is made to Attunity's latest Annual Report on Form 20-F which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the other risk factors discussed from time to time by Attunity in reports filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. Except as otherwise required by law, Attunity undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.\n\u00a9 2014 Attunity Ltd.

        "raw_content": "DGAP-News: KROMI publishes corrected statement on the first quarter of FY 2018/2019\nDGAP-News: KROMI Logistik AG / Key word(s): Quarterly / Interim Statement\nKROMI publishes corrected statement on the first quarter of FY 2018/2019\n- Revenues in the amount of EUR 17,570 thousand achieved\n- Operating result (EBIT) burdened with special effects at EUR -1,275 thousand\n- Operating result (EBIT before special effects) at EUR -360 thousand\nHamburg, November 8, 2018 - KROMI, a manufacturer-independent expert in optimising tool availability and tool deployment in machining operations, generated revenue of EUR 17,570 thousand in the 2018/2019 fiscal year (previous year: EUR 19,162 thousand). The result from operations (EBIT) amounted to EUR -1,275 thousand (previous year: EUR 627 thousand).\nRevenue development in the first quarter of 2018/2019 varied considerably from region to region. While KROMI continued to report a marked decrease in revenue in Germany due to the discontinuation of a contract with a major customer, foreign business performed well, and partly offset the reduced revenue in Germany. Revenue in Germany reduced by 22.8 percent from EUR 11,342 thousand in the previous year to EUR 8,756 thousand, reflecting the aforementioned ending of a contract with a major customer, which had still made a significant contribution to prior-year revenue. The operating business outside Germany performed well with an overall increase of 12.7 percent, with revenue in European countries outside Germany registering a 16.2 percent year-on-year increase to EUR 7,003 thousand (EUR 6,026 thousand). In Brazil, revenue in terms of the Brazilian currency, the real, amounted to BRL 8,408 thousand, representing 26.2 percent growth compared with the previous year (BRL 6,663 thousand). Due to the weak real, this development in euros failed to contribute to better Group results. Revenue grew from EUR 1,794 thousand in the previous year to EUR 1,811 thousand.\nCEO Bernd Paulini comments: \"Although by acquiring new customers as well as expanding the activities for existing customers we have already offset around 50 percent of the reduction in revenue from the discontinued contract, total revenue was nevertheless down significantly compared with the previous year's level. Our operating result - in other words, EBIT adjusted to reflect non-operating effects - amounted to EUR -360 thousand. In order to more efficiently leverage the future potentials of our markets and our business model, we are realigning our product strategy and introducing significant structural measures to secure growth as well as to establish a significantly improved cost structure. We are convinced that the new product strategy will lead to expanded market penetration. The result is additionally burdened by a provision of EUR 650 thousand, which had to be formed in connection with the departure of a member of the Management Board on March 31, 2019.\"\nWith the competency areas of Tools, Technology, Logistics and Data, KROMI will offer a spectrum of top technical performance, maximum availability and comprehensive transparency. In future customers can select the service portfolio that suits them best and offers them the highest benefit. After overcoming the currently difficult situation, due to the unique competences in machining processes and the business expertise to the customers' needs, the Management Board considers KROMI optimally positioned to meet the forthcoming challenges, and looks to the future with optimism.\nOver the course of the day, KROMI will make the full and corrected (IFRS) report for the first three months of its 2018/2019 fiscal year available for downloading on its website at www.kromi.de within the Investor Relations area.",

        "raw_content": "How North Korea confessed and the abduction issue unfolded\nDuring the 1970s and 1980s, a string of strange cases occurred in which Japanese citizens disappeared in unnatural circumstances.\nIn many of these cases, subsequent investigations by the Japanese authorities and testimonies by former North Korean agents gradually revealed that they were most likely to be acts of abduction by North Korea.\nFrom 1991, the GoJ took every opportunity to raise this issue but North Korea continued to dismiss any such allegations until the Japan-DPRK summit of September 2002 in which North Korea leader Kim Jong-Il admitted to the abductions, offered an apology and promised to prevent any such recurrence.\nTo this day, however, the abduction issue still remains unresolved as North Korea continues to fail to provide a convincing account of the whereabouts of the abductees with the exception of 5 citizens who returned to Japan. Currently, the GoJ currently identifies 17 Japanese citizens ( > click on individual cases to the right) and is continuing its investigations as there are other cases which cannot be ruled out as cases of abduction by North Korea.\nFurthermore, in addition to the increasing support and awareness on the importance of resolving this issue in the international community, there are also developments which have revealed that victims of North Korean abductions are not restricted to Japan alone.\n[ Identified thus far ]\nWhy did North Korea commit such atrocities?\nIn the 2002 Japan-DPRK summit, North Korean leader Kim Jong-il stated that the abductions were committed for the following reasons.\n\" to enable Japanese language training in special agencies and for agents to obtain false identities to infiltrate \"the South\". \"\nFrom this statement and others, it is believed that North Korea committed this unprecedented act of state sponsored crime for the following reasons:\nAcquiring Japanese identities for the use of North Korean agents.\nCoercing the victims into teaching North Korean agent Japanese customs and manners so they could pass as Japanese citizens(*1)\nRecruits for the Yodo-go group(*2) to which North Korea is giving refuge.\n*1 1987 Korean Airliners Bombing\nIn 1987, North Korean agents bombed a Korean Airlines flight destined for Seoul killing all passengers. Culprit Kim Hyong-hi, a North Korean agent, was caught carrying a counterfeit Japanese passport and attempting to pass as a Japanese citizen.\n*2 \"Yodo-go group\"\nA Japan Airlines Flight 351, commonly known as \"Yodo-go\", was hijacked on 31st May 1970 by 9 Japanese ultra-leftists. The \"Yodo-go group\" refers to the culprits of this hijacking and their families.\nCopyright \u00a9 2007 Secretariat, Headquarters for the Abduction Issue, Government of Japan",

My passion is to capture the sudden thrill of nature's beauty within my creations.\" Says John Bagley, the innovative designer of the dynamic jewelry line that bears his name.\nJohn Bagley began his jewelry career 50 years ago when he was an anthropology graduate student at Berkley. He roamed the mountain, ridges and canyons of the American northwest searching for clues and artifacts of Native Americans. Fascinated by the inherent beauty of natural stones and objects of nature, inspired by the idea of creating a seamless look, he began working in the ancient technique of inlaying stone into metal. The result...world-renowned for his inlay gold and silver jewelry.\nIt isn't surprising that John's jewelry designs have such a free-flowing, unique flair with many of his creations having an element of the wild and magic of nature in them. He takes much of his inspiration from nature. He saw his jewelry as fetishes that would give the wearer a link with nature.\nJohn Bagley is also an innovative designer of world class bridal rings. Like the nature, John Bagley Bridal collections leads your mind over diverse and surprising elements that continue to provoke a sense of wonder.

Not to mention the fact that there was no WiFi on the flight (though apparently some planes have that now).\nMy second flight didn\u2019t take off until nearly midnight, local time. I dread the flight to Auckland more than any other stage of the trip; it feels like the bardo state from Tibetan Buddhism, in which one has died and is waiting to incarnate into one\u2019s next form \u2014 a state of unsettled in-between-ness, which somehow passes both quicker than expected and with excruciating slowness (a little like some meditation sessions, come to think of it). I did manage to sleep a bit (breathe deeply, follow the out-breath, notice thoughts and sounds, \u2026. zzzzz), waking at least half a dozen times, and then watched \u201cThe Social Network,\u201d which I enjoyed but which I dearly hope will resemble the coming trip not in the slightest.\nOne sees \u201cIce people\u201d in increasing amounts as one gets closer to The Ice (slang for Antarctica). I met an IceCube colleague from Madison in Chicago; noticed a few others at LAX and several more in Auckland. You can tell them by their clothes (take all the geeks or professors you know, and all the rock climbers you know, and imagine how the intersection of those two sets would dress) and by the little yellow penguin tags hanging off of their luggage or the red, white and blue US Antarctic program patches on their jackets. Often we don\u2019t talk to one another, but there are all sorts of interesting people with interesting stories. For example, on the flight to Auckland I managed to sit next to the Program Psychologist on his way to evaluate the psyches of people staying over the winter at South Pole and at McMurdo, but didn\u2019t know that (or anything about him) for the 13 hours we sat together until we landed in Auckland and finally indulged in some small talk.\nIn short, the trip so far has been relatively painless \u2014 by far the worst of it was the Mexican food (and service) I got at LAX, not realizing that they would have dinner on the plane despite the late departure. Now I\u2019m waiting for my flight to Christchurch and, soon, soon! a shower and a real bed.",

If you need a custom term paper related to the subject of Immigration or Us Immigration Policy , you can hire a professional writer here in just a few clicks.\nThe United State\u2019s immigration policy has undergone great change since the turn of the 20th century. Many things have contributed to this change, such as political problems, poverty, lack of jobs, and in fact our changing policy. The countries affected by these problems may have changed but the problems themselves have not. No matter what the location or time period, people have been driven from their homeland as result of political disputes. There will always be poor, 3rd world countries that can not create a prosperous environment for their people. As a result of general poverty, few jobs are available, which forces citizens to look beyond the borders for work. Our changing immigration policy is motivation for some immigrants to come to America. If the U.S. is accepting a high number of one country\u2019s immigrants, than many of their citizens will emigrate for America, some legally and others illegally. The United State\u2019s has changed its immigration policy many times in the last 100 years but the reasons for resettlement have remained generally the same.\nThe early 1900s was a period of mass immigration for the United States. At the turn of the 20th century religious preferences and political persecution were major reasons behind immigration. Many Jews came to America in search of freedom. People of other religious backgrounds also came because the United States was composed of a diverse group of people with different religious preferences. The immigrants did not feel like outcasts in America. Political persecution in Russia forced many of its citizens to emigrate. Most chose to come to America because the country was culturally diverse and they could feel safe there. Economic problems at this time also drove people to America. Many countries around the world were just starting to develop so they were poor and lacked jobs. Their citizens were in desperate need of money; so many fathers immigrated to America in search of a job to support their family with. This was a common occurrence among Asian immigrants. Only later did their families join them through new laws and quotas in the United States immigration policy. However, this soon led to an enormous number of immigrants so the policy was revised to lower quotas and accept more skilled people and less family members. For instance, to counter the high number of Japanese immigrants, the Gentleman\u2019s agreement was passed. Also, in 1917 all potential immigrants needed to pass a literacy test as the country tried to accept less skill-less people. The turn of the 20th century was a preview of future immigration issues.\nThe issue of immigration resurfaced in the middle of the 20th century. The end of World War II left many countries desolated and it\u2019s people homeless and jobless. They immigrated to the United States under refugee status. However, as stated in the Displaced Persons Act, they could not pose a threat to Americans\u2019 housing or jobs. The war destroyed many political groups but also gave rise to some, such as Communism. This led to the Cold War between the United States and Russia. Since accepting communists threatened the nation\u2019s integrity, the McCarran- Walter Act was passed to prohibit people of certain political beliefs from immigrating. However, the presence of communist Fidel Castro in Cuba drove many of its citizens to the United States. This explosion of Cuban refugees forced quotas to be lowered for other countries. The political problems of this time period also created economic problems in many countries and resultantly produced an immigration nightmare for the United States. The mid-1900s was a time of vast immigration resulting from political problems throughout the world.\nThe dawn of the 21st century has brought even more changes in the U.S. immigration policy. The Immigration Act of 1990 attempted to raise the number of immigrants by raising the ceiling to 700,000 for 1992, 1993, and 1994. The McCarron-Walter Act was also amended to allow immigrants of all beliefs to enter the country. Economic problems became the greatest reason for immigrating to America, especially for Mexicans. People came to America in search of higher wages than they could make in their homelands. This desire to live a better life has led to an increase in illegal immigration. As a result, acts such as the Immigration Act of 1996 have been passed to raise the number of border-patrol guards, create more fences to separate Mexico and the U.S., and produce more thorough investigation of job applications. Legal immigrants had their benefits limited in 1996 and the illegal immigrants were declared ineligible for all benefits except in cases of emergency. A lack of wars has lowered the number of refugees but political persecution still exists so the immigration numbers are still climbing. As a result, laws are being created to further limit immigration. It has become a problem because it has created culture-related problems within the U.S. and many of the immigrants are overusing our social services and economic assistance plans. As the United States continues to strive for diversity in the 21st century, economic and political strains have been created in the country that can only be solved by decreased immigration.\nImmigration has been a part of America since 1776. Over the years many political and economic problems have led to different waves of immigration. Since the turn of the 20th century the United States has received a massive number of immigrants. The political and economic problems that cause this immigration have changed over time along with the U.S. immigration policy. It has had to adapt to the circumstances around the world and the country\u2019s ability to support the new influx of people. Without any restrictions the country would be overflowing with immigrants, but if completely prohibited the country would lose it\u2019s diversity and much of its low-income work force. The U.S. has walked this fine line of immigration for years, changing its policy to keep the number of immigrants at a reasonable level. Under different circumstances the U.S. is able to accept different numbers of immigrants. The United States immigration policy has fluctuated over time with the ever so familiar changing political and economic problems around the world.\nHow Did Immigration Contribute To Economic Growth\nPros Of Immigration",

        "title": "May & June Reading Recap | Jovers",
        "raw_content": "May & June Reading Recap\nPhew, these last two months have been busy. Between graduating, packing, hosting my family, and then moving home, unpacking, and getting settled in our new home, I missed out on last month\u2019s reading recap post and I hadn\u2019t read as much last month. So I\u2019m going to recap both months here.\nOver May and June, I read 8 books. In total, I\u2019ve read 28 books this year, which puts me past halfway done with my goal of reading 52 books this year and 3 books ahead of schedule! Yay! The 8 books I read were mainly from two series \u2013 one I finished and one I\u2019m still working on. So I\u2019m going to divide this review up by the series, instead of by the individual book. I\u2019ve included the individual books underneath for clarification.\nThe Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer \u2013 4.5/5 stars\n(Cinder, Scarlet, Cress, and Winter)\nThis series was such a lovely surprise. It takes a classic fairy tale story and characters and transforms it into something fresh and unique. The series focuses on Cinder, a cyborg mechanic living in a world ravaged by a plague called Letumosis. The Lunars \u2013 the population living on the moon \u2013 are ruled by an evil queen who is just biding her time to intervene on earth. The fate of both worlds lie in Cinder\u2019s hands\u2026. *dun dun dun*\nMeyer did a wonderful job creating and developing the characters in this novel. I also loved how each book introduced a new fairy tale and the subsequent characters. And all of the plot points fit the fairy tale theme, if you will, without seeming like stretching the story to fit. It was effortless.\nScarlet introduces Scarlet, who mimics Little Red Riding Hood, as well as the grandmother and Big Bad Wolf, who isn\u2019t so bad after all. Cress introduces Rapunzel, and finally Winter introduces Snow White and her story. But while each book introduces new characters, the story still focuses around Cinder, with each of the characters playing vital roles.\nThe ending was very fitting as well; it wrapped things up while still giving some room for the reader\u2019s speculation. It was such a creative series, giving a fun spin on the fairy tale stories we\u2019ve all grown up with. Yet, the series really stands alone and I would recommend it to anyone who loves fantasy and young adult novels. There\u2019s plenty of action and romance, and of course a strong female lead.\nThe Alchemist by Paulo Coelho \u2013 2/5 stars\nI received this book as a Christmas gift last year and just got around to reading it. It was a short book \u2013 only 200 pages \u2013 but it still took me over a week to finish because I just couldn\u2019t get into it. It reads like a parable, comparable perhaps to a book like Le Petit Prince or The Time Keeper. But unlike these novels, I was very underwhelmed by The Alchemist.\nThe story follows a simple shepherd boy who has a dream about treasures near the pyramids in Egypt. So he begins his quest, leaving everything behind to find this treasure, meeting different characters along the way.\nWhile I suppose the author never intended this novel to carry suspense like a mystery novel, or action like an adventure novel, I feel like it didn\u2019t have anything to go for it except for platitudes and other overgeneralized life lessons like:\nBecause, wherever your heart is, that is where you\u00b4ll find your treasure\nAs another reviewer put, \u201cI feel like this book was trying to be deep but failed,\u201d and I completely agree. This book is critically acclaimed and loved by many, many readers (including my brother who gave it 5 stars); however, I just didn\u2019t get it. I felt generous giving it two stars.\nBrotherband Chronicles (#1 \u2013 3) by John Flanagan \u2013 4/5 stars\nThe Outcasts, The Invaders, and The Hunters\nIn middle school and high school \u2013 and still to this day \u2013 one of my favorite series of books is Flanagan\u2019s Ranger\u2019s Apprentice. I was really disappointed when he finally concluded the series, but equally excited when I found out he would be writing a companion series that focuses on a different country and it\u2019s people, called the Skandians, set in the same world. I was a bit skeptical of first, however, because while I liked Skandia \u2013 a land loosely based on present day Scandinavia, who present similar traits and qualities as vikings \u2013 I wasn\u2019t enraptured. So, I went in with some low expectations and was, again, pleasantly surprised.\nThe Outcasts introduces us to our three main characters: Hal, Stig, and Thorn, the first two of which are young boys entering the brotherband training \u2013 the warrior and seafairing training that all boys enter in Skandia. It follows their training, which has Flanagan\u2019s same trademark style from the Ranger\u2019s Apprentice series. The Invaders and The Hunters follow Hal and his crew after they graduate from their Brotherband training and hunt down thieves who stole Skandia\u2019s most prized treasure.\nI really enjoy all of the characters. Each of them have distinct strengths as well as flaws, and Flanagan does a nice job developing them throughout each book. The plot remains interesting enough and Flanagan does a wonderful job developing the world and the different cultures and countries.\nAs children\u2019s and teen books do, it does have some silly boy humor and some of the lines seem a bit contrived. There\u2019s a fair amount of eye rolling and an unusually large amount of the phrase \u201cpretty much\u201d being used. But even so, I really enjoy the series and can\u2019t seem to keep the books down for long. I don\u2019t like them quite as much as the Ranger\u2019s Apprentice books and they won\u2019t hit my \u201cfavorite\u201d shelf, but I still really enjoy them. I describe them as my \u201cpre-teen boy\u201d guilty pleasure, haha.\nOverall a pretty good couple months. Happy reading!\n12 thoughts on \u201cMay & June Reading Recap\u201d\nOoooh! Yay for doing more reading\nThe only one I\u2019ve heard of is The Alchemist. The rest I\u2019ve heard for the first time I have to say they are not striking me as the type of books to read, but I may look into Brotherband Chronicles. I find some YA/children series to be a bit off-putting, but I figure nothing can be worse than The Diary of a WImpy Kid, so I may check into that one\nThanks for sharing your reading recaps!\nI agree that a lot of children\u2019s series can be off-putting, as you said, but then there are some that I still really enjoy as an adult. I find the Brotherband books to be a lot more mature \u2013 as they face a lot more mature issues, but there\u2019s also that childlike humor that is usually pretty humorous to me instead of being annoying. So I think that John Flanagan does a great job creating these books for younger teens and children, while still making them enjoyable for the older crowd, too.\nI\u2019ve wanted to read The Alchemist for a while, based on Mimi Ikkon\u2019s recommendation, but based on your review, I think I\u2019ll be disappointed! At 200 pages though, I\u2019ll still give it a try. I recently read Mimi\u2019s book and that felt like it was trying too hard to be deep and meaningful\u2026.\nThe other books you\u2019ve mentioned sound amazing though! I\u2019m particularly interested in The Lunar Chronicles, they sound right up my street! I\u2019ve been re-reading Artimies Fowl this month, and Harry Potter. They\u2019re taking me a while just because I\u2019m so short on time, but I\u2019ll get there!\nSo great you were able to do more reading and have read so many this year! It\u2019s great that you enjoyed a number of them and it\u2019s interesting to read the opinions of others on different books. It can be so strange when you read a book that has such high praise and it just doesn\u2019t connect with you. It\u2019s a personal journey and we all have our own thoughts/opinions we carry with us. Never a right or wrong way, just what we like or do not.\nI can\u2019t recall if I\u2019ve even read The Alchemist. I\u2019ve heard of it, but I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve read it or not. There\u2019s been so many books in high school that I\u2019ve had to read and half of which I don\u2019t remember reading except \u201cHuck Finn,\u201d and \u201cBeowulf.\u201d That\u2019s about it; however, The Alchemist does sound pretty interesting, I may have to read it.\nTristan and I on occasion will head over to Barnes And Noble just to see if they\u2019ve come out with any new coding books i.e. HTML5, CSS3, or C# ya know? Some times, I will get a little bored just browsing the same books over and over again because they rarely update their HTML5 and CSS3 section. One book in particular is a supplemental guide to Microsoft\u2019s HTML5 and CSS3 certification exam that they had once upon a time and I failed to get it as I kept thinking \u201cIt\u2019ll be there tomorrow.\u201d I\u2019m kicking myself in the butt for not getting it when I had the chance. I guess that\u2019s why they have Amazon and Barnes And Nobles websites right?\nSpeaking of Cinder and Cress, I actually had those two books in my hands after you\u2019ve blogged about those books. Tristan and I went to Barnes And Nobles the next day after to see what we could get \u2013 if any- and ended up getting Stephen King\u2019s hard back book (those are rare to get) as it\u2019s the third installment of his \u201cMr. Mercedes\u201d trilogy. Tristan told me that when he or myself gets paid we can come back and get those. I know there are four books, I believe, but what is the first of the series? Is it Cinder? Please let me know!\nYes, Cinder is the first book in the series. Cinder, then Scarlet, Cress, and Winter.\nYay reading! I really should try the Lunar Chronicles. I keep hearing about it! And it sounds good!\nUgh. This is me continuing to hate you for actually reading. It sounds like you had a very productive few months and on your way to your goal. Me, I\u2019m procrastinating and stuffing y face with dark chocolate.\nOoh, I like re imaging of classic fairy tales <3 Cinder seems interesting. I wish I could read again, but I shall again!\nI haven\u2019t read the Lunar Chronicles yet, but I love how there are so many fairytale retellings.\nI want to read all of the ones inspired by Beauty and the Beast. But there are a few Peter Pan retellings that I might dive into.\nCongrats on being ahead of your reading goal!!!\nOne of my favorite Peter Pan stories is the Peter and the Starcatchers series. They\u2019re intended for younger audience (like middle school and up) but I absolutely loved the story of how Peter became who he is, as well as all of the other characters in the story. I believe there are four books in the series, so I would definitely recommend those if you\u2019re looking for some good Peter Pan reads!\nIt looks like you\u2019re on track with your goal! I think you had a good reason to be away from books, so it\u2019s all good ;). I\u2019ve been hearing all sorts of good stuff about Cinder and Cress! I\u2019m a bit interested because of the fairy tale twist in the story.\nThe Alchemist sounded so familiar when I first saw the name, then I realized that it was one of the books I read back in 9th grade. It couldn\u2019t catch my attention for some reason @___@\u2026 Maybe because of the writing prompts we had to answer about the book?",

        "raw_content": "Among the Asian countries, India is among the top destinations for the Kiwi tourists every year. It seems that the New Zealand tourist has a taste for India\u2019s exotic delights. In January 2011, there was a significant increase of tourists heading to India from New Zealand alone, with most of them heading there for holidays. While data regarding the age group of who travels to India is hard to come by, a quick check reveals that the average traveller to India is usually on a tourist visa. What\u2019s more, the introduction of direct flights between the two countries has seen the volume of tourist numbers increase on both sides, with cheap flights available from major airlines like Etihad Airways, Delta and Lufthansa.\nThe Kiwi tourist will definitely fall in love with India. The place provides a cost effective holiday destination for them, considering the price level. Additionally, it offers a wide variety of activities for the typical Kiwi tourist to enjoy. While New Zealand has excellent beach fronts and its own island forests, India\u2019s culture, desert life in the north east, beautiful tea farms in the west, and lush landscapes up in the north offer a variety that the Kiwi tourist is sure to appreciate. What\u2019s more, the cricket scene is as lively (if not more fanatic) as the one in New Zealand, a sport that is sure to excite the Kiwi traveller.\nThis premier luxury destination has all the makings of a beautiful getaway. This island nation has whole islands dedicated to tourist activity. With about 99 resort islands, the choice on where to stay is one that may be daunting.\nIt is surprising that this destination would be popular with the Kiwi tourist. Is it not similar to the home country after all? However, the Maldives offer a new and exciting twist that home doesn\u2019t have. Its culture: including the food, music, and history give it an edge. What\u2019s more, New Zealand and Maldives are not that far apart, making it a convenient destination for the Kiwi tourist who wants to enjoy world class hospitality and private beaches. The warm diplomatic relationships between the two countries facilitates easy travel too, so Kiwis head here to relax in a luxury overwater bungalow, sip on a cocktail and enjoy living like a king.\nBoth New Zealand and the UK belong to the commonwealth. They also share a great deal of history between them. The attraction between residents of the two countries seems mutual, with large tourist numbers flocking both ways. When you place Australia aside, the UK is one of the top 3 destinations for tourists from New Zealand. In 2011, there were about 187,000 tourists from New Zealand, and they spent a total of about \u00a3163 million on their visits that year. With some fantastic tour operators like this to show you around, you can\u2019t go around.\nFor those who are particularly adventurous, B&B trips around the UK are a fun way of enjoying the delights of the country. They facilitate easy and cheap travel, and also a more intimate experience. From a beach trip to Cornwall to a city escape whilst staying at a B&B in Edinburgh, Kiwis love to explore every corner of the UK. The Kiwi tourist will undoubtedly enjoy the large English breakfasts, delicious local pies, as well as sampling the local beer. The sports scene will also be very appealing, as New Zealanders are passionate about rugby and cricket.\nWith such a beautiful home country, finding an exciting holiday destination can be challenging for folks from New Zealand, but we think these 3 are more than worthy of a visit!\nThe video is a compilation of the best clips from two weeks trip around the South Island in New Zealand. We went from Christchurch through lake Tekapo, lake Pukaki, Mount Cook, Hooker Valley, Tasman Lake, Kea Point, Lake Hawea, Lake Wanaka, Lake Wakatipu, Te Anau, Doubtful Sound, Milford Sound, Gertrude Saddle, Key Summit, and back to Banks Peninsula and Christchurch.\nIf you\u2019re heading over to New Zealand for a break, you\u2019ve probably had to shell out a fair fortune for the flights. Unless you have a literally unlimited budget, you may find that you can\u2019t go all out with the holiday spends after splashing the cash on the journey out.\nHowever, sometimes you\u2019re going to want to treat yourself to something special \u2013 a great meal out, renting a car to head to the beach, something like that \u2013 so you\u2019ll need a little extra money.\nTo save up for that occasion, why not try out some of the New Zealand capital\u2019s free activities? There are loads of things to do for free in the Windy City; you can have a great holiday without spending a dime on activities if you want to!\nThe Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa (known as Te Papa for short) is a fab little place, and there\u2019s always plenty to do and see there. A recent survey found that if you were to read absolutely everything here, it\u2019d take you about 60,000 hours \u2013 nearly 7 years!\nMake sure you visit the Colossal Squid exhibition!\nGet Your Politics Head On\nYou can learn a little about the government of New Zealand by going on an education tour through the various Parliament Buildings in Wellington \u2013 tours go on every day, and they leave on the hour. The Beehive is a unique building, well worth seeing!\nEmbark on the Writers Walk\nThis lovely trek around the waterfront will serve as a wonderful introduction to the hordes of talented and beloved writers who call (or have called) Wellington their home.\nThe Wellington Writers Walk is a self-guided tour, so you can do it whenever \u2013 just pick up a map and enjoy your day!\nLike Lord of the Rings?\nIf you\u2019re a fan of Peter Jackson and his films (he\u2019s a Kiwi, don\u2019t you know?), then you will enjoy a visit to Weta Cave, a small museum dedicated to his works, complete with behind the scenes looks, tonnes of movie memorabilia and video interviews.\nIf You Have Money to Spare\u2026\nOne way of saving money is by looking at Cheapflights in New Zealand; if you can manage to spend less on your trip over, then you can afford to spare a little more on the attractions while you\u2019re there.\nIf you can afford a little expense, we would recommend spending a day riding the fantastic crocodile bikes along the waterfront before stopping off at Maranui for refreshments in the form of a fantastic milkshake.\nRide those bikes up to Zealandia, a conservation sanctuary where you can get up close and personal with some of NZ\u2019s rarest animals. Finish off your evening with a nice meal then pop over to Ciocco for a warming chilli hot chocolate!\nRide the Wellington Cable Car!

Traveller, your dreams are waiting right here in New Zealand.\nNew Zealand Landscapes Timelapse Volume 1 from Bevan Percival on Vimeo.\nThe Qualified Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS) can be a high-yielding UK-pension investment system capable of tax savings and excellent returns if managed properly. Between 2006 when HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) OK\u2019d the pension programs and April/May of 2012 Guernsey was consistently either the most popular destination for QROPS or among the top three. Particularly in the later years preceding 2012, Guernsey had pulled well ahead of the Oceania states as the premier QROPS destination for British expats. As things were, it looked to hold that crown for the foreseeable future. However, that was before the HMRC implemented Statute Instrument 1221 (SI 1221), which shattered the Guernsey QROPS apparatus as it was.\nSI 1221, which went into force on May 23, 2012, was intended to thwart tax avoidance. Its chief provision prohibited patronage of any investment scheme favoring preferential tax benefits for non-resident investors. The day SI 1221 took effect more than 99% (310 of 313) of Guernsey\u2019s QROPS programs were cut from the HMRC\u2019s list of registered providers, effectively ending further QROPS traffic.\nThe good news for those with Guernsey QROPS in place is that their scheme will remain unaffected by the legislation. Otherwise, the future of Guernsey\u2019s QROPS viability is in something of a limbo. In their favor, Guernsey is a long-established centre for pension investment. They already have a sturdy base of QROPS investors grandfathered in to the older system and Deputy Gavin St Pier of Guernsey\u2019s Treasury department (along with other lawmakers) has (and have) scrambled to amend the tax statutes as to provide the same benefits to residents and non-residents alike; obviously to (re)align their policy with the HMRC\u2019s new guidelines. (Ironically, Guernsey\u2019s S157E regime, established in March 2012, was passed to ensure preferential tax treatment wasn\u2019t given to off-island investors so as to conform with HMRC\u2019s tax guidelines. S157E was mentioned specifically in SI 1221\u2019s clampdown on Guernesy.)\nGuernsey is close, familiar and comfortable for many expats, has hundreds of men and women who specialise in QROPS and do it for a living. Furthermore, the government has a huge incentive to retain, maintain and expand an attractive QROPS marketplace as so much of their economy relies on British pension investment. How Guernsey will emerge from the shakeup remains to be seen. The suggestion that they\u2019re down but not out is a reasonable one.\nMario Vitanelli is a freelance writer and blogger who specializes in international politics and finance. His areas of expertise include Asian, South American and European expatriate economic policy and QROPS.

        "title": "What youth can't do: the juvenile court and the social construction of youth offending",
        "raw_content": "What youth can't do: the juvenile court and the social construction of youth offending\nChernoff, William A.\nAt each milestone of its development, advocates of the juvenile court have repeatedly and rightly recognized the court for what it is: a powerful instrument affecting the normal development of youth. The juvenile court is a social institution organized to achieve certain values. At its most mundane, it ensures that certain practices and beliefs actually exist somewhere in the world. At its most grandiose, it imprints these behaviors and thoughts on those involved, extending its locus of influence and transforming society itself.\nBecause of its potential to transform people\u2019s lives, it is important to understand the circumstances under which the juvenile court more regularly and, perhaps more zealously, reinforces what people can and cannot do.\nTo understand social control and the juvenile court, court case records were drawn from a large, Midwestern Juvenile Court filed between January 1st, 2012 and December 31st, 2016. These records were obtained using the juvenile court\u2019s Justice Information Leveraging System, an online, real-time court records management system available to the public.\nDrawing a random sample of juvenile court cases (N=582), the present study examines the effects of demeanor, context, race, social class, and gender on court imposed social control. Controlling for alternative explanations (i.e., prior involvement, offense severity, judge idiosyncrasies, and age), the present study shows that demeanor, context and race, as well as demeanor and gender affect decisions made during the juvenile court process.\nAmong cases involving youth whose contexts were criminogenic, minority youth, more than white youth, were more likely to be detained prior to adjudication. Additionally, the effect of demeanor on disposition length among cases involving girls was greater than that observed among boys. Lastly, cases involving youth whose demeanors were disagreeable, were more likely to be detained and to receive dispositions that were longer and more severe than cases involving youth whose demeanors were agreeable.\nNotably, sufficient evidence was observed of effects involving offense severity and prior record on social control. Cases involving youth charged with a felony were, more than cases involving youth charged only with misdemeanors, more likely to be detained, disposed to a more severe intervention, and disposed for a longer period of time.\nCases involving youth with more involved prior records generally received greater social control, particularly regarding detention and disposition length. However, mixed results were observed regarding adjudication and disposition severity. Sufficient evidence was observed to suggest that not all youth received a \u201cfirst-timer discount\u201d at adjudication. Likewise, first-timers were, compared to those with a history of court involvement (but not adjudication), more likely to receive some form of court intervention.\nThese findings suggest new directions for juvenile court policy and practice. The juvenile court should investigate racial and gender disparity in what it does. It is possible that mundane, unintentional practices reinforce disparate social arrangements. Additionally, the court should reassess it reliance on \u201cJust Deserts\u201d and other graduated forms of intervention. As the latest research on adolescent development suggests (Steinberg 2007), youth are not adults, and, as such, should not be judge by adult standards.\nKeywords: Juvenile court; Disparity\nMajor Professor: W.

        "raw_content": "Are 7 Hour School Days Preparing High School Students for Life After High School?\nMost public school districts in California schedule schooling hours between 7:00 AM \u2013 3:00 PM five days a week for high school students. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, the average school day for public schools is 6.24 hours. Multiplied by 5 school days, that adds up to 31.2 hours weekly that students spend at school in class. On the other hand, a full course load for a full-time college student is 12 units (equivalent to 12 hours a week).\nIt doesn\u2019t make sense that we ask high school students to spend more time in class than the average college student when we know that younger students have a smaller attention span and are also still developing in many different aspects: learning how to communicate, refining their motor skills, physically growing, and going through puberty, etc.\nHere is a suggested weekly schedule that some colleges recommend to their students to manage their time:\nThere are high school and college students who have to work full-time jobs or are parents while in school but have responsibilities that are not considered in the hours listed above. 20 hours left in a week is not a lot for these students. School often comes in the way of the realities and needs of our lives that occur all the time such as going to the doctor, taking care of their health in other ways, spending time with their family, doing an internship, etc.\nSince I started college, I have struggled tremendously to figure out how to follow a routine such as the one I mentioned above. Along with having time to deal with my health problems, making time for working out, learning how to cook healthy meals and other self care strategies that could have possibly prevented my health problems, spending time with family and friends, and extra curricular activities like student government and serving on a nonprofit executive board have been challenging for me. Students in high school should make better use of their time and be trained to manage their schedules instead of simply having to figure out all of this in college.\nAccording to the Education Commission of the States, the California Education Code mandates that school districts choose their start and end time but are required to provide 175-180 days of instruction annually and a certain amount of hours for a day to be considered instructional. For grades four through twelve, the minimum requirement is four hours a day.\nThese 6.24 average hours should be reallocated in a different way and changed to shifting the structure of teaching. Some teachers are working with several classes of 20-30 students, sometimes having over 100 students preventing quality one-on-one time. Overall, most teachers are expected to create curriculum, teach their students, assign homework, provide additional help outside of class hours, work with students\u2019 behaviors, and often provide parenting that students need because they spend all day at school. Imagine if teachers could host office hours the way professors do in college and better prioritizing the individual needs of students with one-on-one assistance.\nWe are not doing high school students justice by not being understanding that they too have a lot going on in their lives, and these long hour school days are not fit to help them manage or cope with the various stressors in our lives.\n\u201cWhile I was a student athlete, it became very hard to go home and do everything after practice: eating, homework, catching up on stuff on social media, spending time with my dogs, showering and sleeping. Ultimately, I had to choose track over being a part of a mentoring program,\u201d said Jacqueline De Paz, 16, current high school student in San Bernardino, CA.\nInstead, school districts can work with students, parents, teachers and principals to assess and better plan instructional hours and the resources the campus and community offer to engage students in developing a healthy lifestyle so when they become young adults who understand how to take of themselves instead of learning the hard way in college.\nBlog, LA Countyaccountability, high-school, schedulesRocio AguayoLeave a comment\nBeyond a Providing Prestigious Public University Experience, UC Berkeley Supported Me and My Little Family\nGracias Ram\u00f3n Ayala, Mis Hijos Van a Sobrevivir la Vida al 100",

        "raw_content": "The Rule of Law and its Enemies - The Human Hive\nBBC Reith Lecture\nNiall Ferguson\u2019s Reith Lecture 2012 series, entitled The Rule of Law and its Enemies, will demonstrate that historical change in the modern period \u2013 from economic growth to democratization \u2013 has been driven mainly by institutions: those complex, man-made organisations that lie somewhere between great men and impersonal historical forces. Ferguson\u2019s lectures aim to push beyond na\u00efve ideas about the success of capitalism and democracy over the past two centuries, and especially in the years since the Cold War. He will deliver the lectures in London, Edinburgh and New York, with audience contributions from the Middle East.\nIn this first lecture, The Human Hive, to be delivered at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) Ferguson takes as his starting point a graffito on a wall in post-Gaddafi Libya which roughly translates as: \u201cWe want a constitutional role and for the president to have less authority and the four year presidential term should not be extended.\u201d This sounds bizarrely precise as a revolutionary slogan. But, Prof Ferguson argues, whoever wrote it had the right idea. Overthrowing a dictator and holding elections are necessary but not sufficient steps towards a free society. The devil lies in the constitutional detail.\nThe second lecture is entitled The Darwinian Economy. The Landscape of Law is the title of the third lecture, and Professor Ferguson's fourth and final lecture is entitled Civil and Uncivil Societies.\nFerguson, born in Glasgow, is Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History at Harvard University, Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University and a Senior Research Fellow at Jesus College, Oxford. The author of a dozen books, he specialises in financial and economic history, as well as the history of empires. Ferguson has written and presented many major television series, most recently China: Triumph and Turmoil.\nThe Reith Lectures 2012 will be recorded in June and broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and the BBC World Service from June-July.\nMore information about the Reith Lectures| including recordings of past Reith Lectures can be found online.\nSuggested hashtag for this event for Twitter users: #Reith\nProfessor Niall Ferguson | talks | www\nChair: Sue Lawley | talks\nLSE Campus, venue TBC to ticket holders\nThis event is free and open to all however a ticket is required, only one ticket per person can be requested.\nMembers of the public, LSE staff, students and alumni can request one ticket via the online ticket request form which will be live on this listing after 10pm on Wednesday 30 May until at least 12noon on Thursday 31 May.

At the time it was the largest unsupported steel dome in the world. After the new Charlotte Coliseum opened in 1988, the name was changed to Independence Arena (named for its location on Independence Boulevard in Charlotte) and underwent an extensive renovation. In 2001 the arena was renamed the Cricket Arena in a naming rights arrangement with Cricket Communications. In 2008 Bojangles Restaurants, Inc. bought the naming rights.\nWith the departure of the Charlotte Checkers for the new Charlotte Bobcats Arena in 2005, Bojangles Arena is left with no major tenant and its future remains in the air. Charlotteans generally like the arena, commonly referred to locally as \"The Old Coliseum\" or \"The Big I,\" due to its old-time atmosphere and convenient location on Independence Boulevard, one of the city's main arteries. Locals did not feel nearly as much affection for the Charlotte Coliseum, because of its inconvenient location southwest of Uptown (the central business district).\nCricket Arena will remain open as a venue for medium-sized concerts and stage shows which would not be suitable for the new Bobcats Arena, and also high school and some college sporting events, along with local attractions in years to come. Furthermore, Cricket Arena would be ready in case Bobcats Arena may not be available for the ECHL Kelly Cup Playoffs, as the South Division's compact scheduling may affect games (arena availability for compact playoff series has been a problem in the ECHL historically). The arena is not likely to be demolished, as it holds a place on the Charlotte historical register.\nIn June, 2006 it was announced in the Charlotte Observer that the Arena would host races from the Arena Racing USA league. The Charlotte effort is being headed by NASCAR owner Joe Gibbs along with drivers Tony Stewart and Denny Hamlin.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bojangles%27_Coliseum",

Right now, ILM is redefining photorealistic musculature and skin on THE HULK. With their work on digital make up that they used in THE MUMMY and THE MUMMY RETURNS, they are no doubt being asked about enhancements to Arnie or another player in KING CONAN, but frankly... it has to be Arnold. At 55, he's more fit than most likely 99% of the people in the world, but given the enormous size he once had, and the awesome physique he had in the original CONAN THE BARBARIAN, which he has changed from... quite a bit, this could be a way for Arnie to play the character from the great age range that the script calls for. Literally 25 to 35 years pass over the course of KING CONAN (at least in the first draft!) and he is supposed to have gone a little soft as King, which is perfect for modern Arnie... but the CONAN in his prime? I could see how they would need to ask about enhancements. I'm sure we'll hear more on this rumor...\nWord is, ILM was asked by people tied to King Conan if it is possible to use CGI to enhance the size and definition of muscles on the body. I dont want speculate but it sounds like an aging Arnold is getting a muscle makeover with CGI.\nI have been informed by a reader that says that Arnold has the exact same measurements that he had in his mid-thirties. But while occupying the same space, do they have the definition they did then? That is what secret agent Steve Reeves was talking about afterall.

A 12-lead ECG is the professional version that is administered in a clinic or hospital setting. Twelve leads (using 10 electrodes) are placed on your limbs and across your torso. They measure the heart's electrical activity in several directions and planes and are highly sensitive. They can detect abnormal electrical patterns and find areas where heart muscle is dying, as in the case of inadequate blood supply or heart attack.\nThe new Apple Watch features are cleared, but not approved, by the US Food and Drug Administration. It may seem a subtle point, but for something to be approved by the FDA, it is subjected to much more rigorous testing and data collection. Clearance is typically given to medical devices that have been determined to be substantially equivalent to another legally marketed device -- an easier hurdle to cross.",

        "title": "Earning Potential: NAACP Joins Push For Living Wage Increase",
        "raw_content": "Earning Potential: NAACP Joins Push For Living Wage Increase\nThe minimum wage in New York City is $7.25 an hour. Yet of about 317,000 low-wage workers in New York City, about one in five of these workers are paid less than the legally required wage, according to the National Employment Law Project\u2019s recent report which surveyed 1,432 low-wage workers in New York City, titled \u201cWorking Without Laws: A Survey of Employment and Labor Law Violations in New York City.\u201d\nAn organization called New York City Living Wage is looking to enact a new living wage ordinance instead of a minimum wage to match the living wage and the NAACP has joined the cause.\nA living wage is a wage, which is based upon the cost of living in an area. Current NYC legislation defines a living wage in New York City as a minimum of $10 per hour with benefits, or $11.50 per hour without benefits. Compare this to the current minimum wage and the discrepancy is obvious. The organization and NAACP want a new living wage law passed that will require that any company receiving city contracts or subsidies must pay its workers a wage above the federal minimum. In 2002, New York City passed a living wage law but it only covers a limited number of workers, and does not apply to employees who work in privately owned, publicly subsidized developments, such as stadiums, convention centers and shopping malls.\n\"A living wage is needed by many for basic survival. A country is judged by the manner in which it treats its most vulnerable groups. America is beginning to take on the traits of England during the Industrial Revolution - everyone for themselves - and the weakest are left behind. As we enter the Christmas holidays, politicians and the wealthy in this country may need to be visited by the three ghosts from Charles Dickens' \"A Christmas Story,\" notes civil rights expert Gloria J. Browne-Marshall, associate professor, John Jay College of Criminal Justice and the Graduate Center of the CUNY.\nOn November 21, the organization held a rally, with the support of NAACP CEO and President Benjamin Todd Jealous, to support a city council bill that would require companies that get city subsidies to pay their workers at least $10 an hour plus benefits and better pay than the state\u2019s minimum wage. NYC Mayor Bloomberg opposes the bill, which has the backing of most city council members. The Rev. Al Sharpton and Martin Luther King III also support the new bill.\n\u201cI am proud to support the NAACP New York Metropolitan Council of Branches as they campaign for fair wages for all New Yorkers,\u201d says Jealous. \u201cNew York is our largest city. We cannot achieve economic security for America until we achieve it for all New Yorkers. Today, nearly two million New Yorkers rely on food stamps to survive, and African-Americans and Latinos suffer from poverty disproportionately. Reducing poverty and inequality in our cities has always been at the heart of the NAACP's economic agenda and the economic agenda of the civil rights movement. The fact that so many people are still counted among the working poor is a stain on our collective conscience, and it will not be washed away until we create more living wage jobs in New York City and nationally.\u201d\nHaving the backing of the NAACP is a major push, observes Browne-Marshall. \"The support of a venerable civil rights organization such as the NAACP is important because of its long history of advocacy,\u201d she says. The issue is a perfect fit for the NAACP, adds Browne-Marshall. \"Economic issues have long been under the umbrella of civil rights. A. Phillip Randolph, who led the Black railroad porters, and many other civil rights icons protested for civil rights, equal pay, and access to good jobs. During World War II, the civilian defense plants were desegregated before the military because civil rights leaders rallied against the racial segregation that kept Blacks from those jobs. The March on Washington in 1963 was a \"March for Jobs and Freedom.\" Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s social justice protest included a Poor People's Campaign. Dr. King was assassinated while in Memphis supporting the sanitation workers' strike. The advancement of colored people means economic as well as educational and social advancement. Increasing the take home pay of the working poor will assist all people struggling financially, including people of color.",

        "raw_content": "Loans \u00bb Payday \u00bb Questions \u00bb How Do I Choose a Short-term Loan Lender?\nHow Do I Choose a Short-term Loan Lender?\nThere are a number of steps prospective borrowers should undertake in order to decide which short-term loan lender is best for them. Payday loans shouldn\u2019t be borrowed back-to-back or obtained very often. It is best to view them as emergency-only financing for desperate situations. However, if a borrower must use one then following these steps would be a wise decision.\nFirst, prospective borrowers should decide how much money they wish to borrow based upon both their financial situation and their ability to repay a short-term loan. For example, borrowers needing a short-term loan for groceries won\u2019t need to borrow as much money as a person needing a loan for car repairs. It is important for prospective borrowers to remember that any money they borrow must be repaid. Naturally, borrowing less money means less interest, so it is more affordable to only borrow the bare minimum amount of required.\nNow, prospective borrowers must do their research on different lenders. Since some borrowers are under pressure and time constraints, they may be tempted to simply drive to their nearest retail store lender. Unfortunately, this is not always the wisest decision.\nProspective borrowers will benefit far more by comparing the policies and interest rates of various lenders. Ideally they should solicit quotes from both online and offline lenders to see which offers the best interest rate and policy. For example, some lenders charge more expensive fees for rollovers than others.\nSpeaking to a representative is also a good idea. Prospective borrowers should make sure the lender they are interested in is accredited with the Better Business Bureau since this is a sign of trustworthiness regulated by the federal government.\nOnce borrowers have selected a lender, they must submit their application along with all the essential information.\nThe information required by most lenders include:\nIf borrowers are approved they will receive their short-term loan.\nAt this point, the selection process is over but the borrower still needs to repay their short-term loan. Since these loans carry high interest rates, it is crucial to repay them in a timely manner. These steep fees also lend credence to why it is so important to have selected the lender that offered the best quote. Following these steps though can ensure that borrowers-in-need avoid taking out a loan from a bad lender or scammer that will cost them an arm and a leg.",

But we don\u2019t have to.\nActualists and possibilists often make different choices. One makes the best possible choice, regardless of its feasibility and their likelihood of honoring that choice, and the other makes the pragmatic one they believe they\u2019ll stick to.\nIn moments of ambition, we can set energized goals, make resolutions, sign up for gym memberships and diets, and try to radically commit to methods of living more ethically. But if it\u2019s the case, as is often is, that this energy and ambition won\u2019t last at this level over time, we sometimes set ourselves up for failure. When it comes to the gym and weight loss, little harm is done. But when considering our ambitions to increase our positive impact, and decrease our negative impact, failure to act ethically as a result of setting unreasonable goals and giving up, this comes with more substantial consequences.\nIn this episode, I discuss actualism and possibilism as frameworks for thinking about our commitments and ambitions, as well as the actions that follow, or sometimes fail to follow.

        "raw_content": "S.S. Arawa\nARAWA was built for Shaw, Saville & Albion by Wm. Denny of Dumbarton in 1884. She was a 5,026 gross ton vessel, with clipper stem, two funnels and four masts, length 439.6 ft x beam 46.3 ft, single screw and a speed of 13 knots. To reduce fuel consumption on the UK - Australia run, she was rigged for sails, being square rigged on the fore and mainmasts and fore and aft rigged on the other two.\nAs originally built, she carried 95 First Class, 52 Second Class and 200 emigrants. She could also accommodate a further 470 emigrants in a cargo tween deck with portable bulkheads. She commenced service London - Australia - New Zealand in 1884 and stayed in this service until 1893 when she was chartered to James Huddart and was put onto the Australia - Vancouver run.\nIn July 1895, she was taken over by the Union SS Co. of New Zealand and ran for one voyage between Australia and San Francisco.\nLate in 1895, she was chartered to the Spanish government who renamed her COLON and used her as a transport in the Spanish American war.\nReturned to her owners she was renamed ARAWA again and was put up for sale and purchased by Elder Dempster & Co. but immediately taken over by the British government and used as a transport in the Boer War.\nReturned to her owners in 1900, she was put onto the Beaver Line service from Liverpool to Halifax and St John NB (commencing 10/3/1900) and renamed LAKE MEGANTIC. She underwent considerable change under Beaver Line ownership and was rebuilt with new boilers, mainmast and all yards and sailing rigging removed, new funnels and accommodation provided for 120 First, 180 Second and 700 Third Class passengers.\nOn 4/2/1903 she left Liverpool on her last voyage to St John NB. In 1904 there was a plan to use her as an exhibition ship, but this fell through and in 1905 she was transferred to Elder Dempster's Imperial Direct West India Mail Line and renamed PORT HENDERSON.\nIn 1912 she was sold to Italy and renamed ANAPO and in 1913 resold to other Italian buyers and renamed PORTO SAID. In December 1915 she was torpedoed and sunk by a German submarine off Cyrenaica.\n[J.H.Isherwood - Sea Breezes, May 1950]\nLinked to Family: Wiser/Schoenhals (F11)",

        "raw_content": "(Re-posted from my Hubpages blog)\nIn the biblical story of the 'Wisdom of Solomon', two women are in disagreement over who is the mother of a baby.\nSolomon is attributed with having \"great wisdom\" for discerning that a mother would rather give up her child to the care of another than have it slaughtered... so he threatens to split the baby in half & duly the woman who is the true mother cries out that she would rather give up the\nbaby to the other woman, than see it killed...\n... the act of self sacrifice which is performed by this woman is considered as such a given, that it's power & beauty are reduced to the purpose of illustrating the wisdom & might of this king over his subjects.\nIf anything, i see this particular grisly tale as illustrative, not of how wise this particular king was, but more of the way children and parents are often used as pawns in political maneuvering to the point where the state tries to assume 'ownership' of the child's life in order to control both the child & the parent...\nbut I am getting ahead of myself...\nI believe the true moral of this tale is this; no matter how great the sacrifice, a mother will give her all to protect the child she loves; & how neither greed, nor vindictiveness nor the might & power of kings can waiver the unerring strength of the maternal bond.\nEd Balls, Secretary of State for Children Schools & Families: Economist,\nprominent Fabian Society member & trusted adviser of Gordon Brown!\nOver the last 12 months, I have personally been compelled to participate in a war against those who would seek to tyrannically control & oppress the lives of my children and I. (Not to mention thousands of others...& maybe YOURS too!)\n\"When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty!\"\n\"This degrading, downgrading and debasement of parenthood is itself an elite project in order to establish tight control over the lives of a subject people. \"Like many other home educating parents, I have awakened to the snowballing trend by politicians & public policy makers of attempting to sever the child from parental ties.\n\"The state does not wish to protect the integrity of the child: it wishes to ensure that the child internalises the values of the state and not the parent!\"\nIt is typically, although not exclusively, the mother who stays at home & fulfills the role of educational facilitator. In the UK, home educating mothers in particular, have been subjected to offensive misogynistic slurs, such as\n\"home educating mothers suffer(...) from Munchhausen's by Proxy\"\nHowever, the ban upon Home Education in Germany has recently led one US Judge to state:...\"the rights being violated here are basic human rights that no country has a right to violate.\"Yet here seems to prevail a belief system, particularly within governmental departments, that children need protecting from their parents. What is more 'The State' seems to think it can raise children better than parents or at least decide who is to be approved as fulfilling their idea of an 'appropriate' parent.\nWhile this government has been in power, there has been a marked increase in the unwarranted intrusion in family life by agents of the State.\nTheir sinister social engineering agenda is constantly being pushed forward under the pretext of child protection.\nThe forced adoption of children in the UK is reaching frightening extremes... Babies are often ear marked as candidates from before birth.\nThe UK operates secret Family Courts.Parents are gagged from reporting what happens inside them. These closed courts have no juries yet can imprison without an open trial.\n\"I don't think the public appreciates how low the threshold is. When children are taken from their parents, it is not because there is a certainty of future harm or even that, on the balance of probabilities, those children could be harmed. It is enough that there will be a possibility of future harm. If there is a 70 per cent. risk of a child being harmed and every child with that risk was taken into care then, in 100 such cases, 30 children would be taken from families where they would come to no harm. Sometimes, I wonder whether children are being protected, or whether it is social workers' careers.\" (...) \"There's an unspoken fear that children from poor backgrounds are being freed up for middle-class adopters.\" (Barrister, Andrew Scott)\nThe most recent high profile case in the UK media has been that of Kerry Robertson & Mark McDougall.\nThey were informed early in Kerry's pregnancy that their baby would be removed within days of being born as social services workers did not consider her clever enough to raise a child.\nFife Social Services also prevented her from marrying the baby's father Mark, an act which would have granted him clearer legal custody rights as the father. They again claimed that this was because they didn't consider Kerry to have the mental capacity to understand fully the implications of the act of marriage.\nKerry, who has mild learning difficulties, fled to Ireland with her partner & on 22 January 2010, she gave birth to a healthy 7lb 3oz son who they've named Ben. However, at the behest of Fife Council, Irish social workers took the baby from the couple just four days after he was born.\nLibDem MP John Hemming said \u2018There is no evidence that Mark and Kerry cannot be good parents and I just hope that the Irish authorities can resolve this as quickly as possible.\u2019\nIt was reported in the Daily Mail(27/1/10) that, after a court hearing, the parents of Ben were granted access to their child on the proviso that Kerry move into a mother and baby unit, where the 17-year-old will be under under constant supervision. So far Kerry & Mark have been given no indication how long she & Ben will be expected to remain in the Mother & Baby Unit.\nKerry was breastfeeding Ben when he was taken from her. She claims that he was given a dummy & fed formula by the foster carers he was placed with. There was an outcry from breastfeeding advocacy & support groups.\n\"Those who think that society has \u201cgone too far\u201d in supporting breastfeeding, that mothers who formula feed are demonised and breastfeeding mothers aren\u2019t: Show me the women who are losing their jobs for formula feeding. (...) Show me the women who have been ordered to cease or interrupt formula feeding by family courts. (...) Show me the people who, on seeing a bottle pulled out in a public place, will wrinkle their nose and say in disgust, \u201cAre you going to do that here?\u201d (...) Show me the people who insist that all bottle feeding should be covered with a blanket, you filthy sluts. (...) Show me the people who say that formula feeding shouldn\u2019t be allowed in public because they don\u2019t have time to explain such adult concepts to their children. (...) Show me the women who have been accused of formula feeding because they\u2019re paedophiles...\" (read full article here)\nBreast Feeding, Attatchment Parenting & Co-Sleeping have all had bad press & been subjects of controversy...How have some of the most natural acts of motherhood, including the utmost act of parental input into the nourishment of a child, feeding a baby the way they have been fed since the dawn of time... become such controversial, abhorrent & socially taboo subjects? Since when has feeding a baby or choosing to teach a child become the subversive acts of 'domestic extremists'? Why is it that...\nWhen women use their breasts in ways that don\u2019t centre around men\u2019s desires, women are demonised. And what better way to demonise people than to denounce them for our most despised crime, child sexual abuse?\nParents are finding themselves increasingly attacked for committing the most natural acts of love, child nurture & care giving and these attacks are often instigated\nor supported by policy makers & supposed experts in a field & the media... Although breastfeeding & extended or child-led weaning has seen a marked increase in recent years, the onslaught of political & economic control of parenting via marketing, social manipulation & medical misinformation continues to this day. The bad reputation of Co-Sleeping is fuelled by the media hysteria & mis-information about rare instances when a co-sleeping baby has died. Most people who are anti co-sleeping claim concerns about the baby\u2019s safety. However, others claim it's necessary for a baby to be taught from an early age to sleep seperately from the parents. This would be the very antithesis of the idea of 'attatchment parenting', which promotes the ethos that children grow to be more confident and secure when they are allowed to experience the world at their own pace & need a close relationship with their parents to enable that to happen in a positive way.\n\"The history of our times will show of many broken families, of children without a family to remember, of heartache and tears of fear and a lifetime of terror of that knock on the door at midnight. Of being wrenched from mother\u2019s arms and of brothers and sisters disappearing, never to be seen again. Of men and women wrongfully cast into prisons, tormented for years by the knowledge of their innocence... This will be the legacy of our times for future generations \u2013 it is now being written. In newspapers, television documentaries, Parliamentary debates, and most importantly of all, by those who have suffered.\" (Charles Pragnell, Dip.S.W., L.R.C.C.)\nSo here we are at the beginning of a new century... a new millenium... and in many ways, the wars waged by parents & particularly Mothers are not that different from in the ancient times of the 'wise' king Solomon...\nThose who seek power through public positions & attempt to control whole societies & cultures, really do not seem yet to have a full appreciation one of the most obvious... most basic... most fundamental rules of humanity ...\nDO NOT COME BETWEEN A MOTHER & HER CHILD!!!\nA woman's special role as 'Mother' dictates that she has both an duty & a right to participate in political & public policy making spheres.\nGraham Badman has been heard to foolishly utter that he doubts \"the sort of civil disobedience that you fear\"...from the parents & young people who are to be affected by his recommendations...Well i say this to you, Mr.(a very) Badman & Mr.(talking utter) Balls... this Labour Government... & any political party or person in a position of authority who tries to manipulate the vulnerability of my children or who wages a dirty tricks campaign to bring violence, coersion & abuse upon my family...\n\"No public stakeholder loves me or our child\" (S.Matthan)\nDuring the greater part of the 20th century, when women\u2019s political & activistic energy had been concentrated on issues of women\u2019s economic rights and status, 'Organized Motherhood', still continued to be the overriding principle at the head of anti-violence movements.\nOn the 5th September 1981, the Welsh group \u201cWomen for Life on Earth\u201d marched from Cardiff to Greenham Common, Berkshire, with the intention of challenging, by debate, the decision to site 96 'Cruise' nuclear missiles there. Thus, beginning a protest that was to last 19 years.\nThey delivered a letter to the Base Commander which stated...\nWe fear for the future of all our children and for the future of the living world which is the basis of all life.\"\nAfter their request for a debate was ignored, they set up a Peace Camp outside the surrounding fence of the Greenham Common RAF Airbase. The camp became known as the 'Women\u2019s Peace Camp' and gained both national and international recognition.\nTaking non-violent direct action against movements at the base meant that some women were arrested, taken to court and sent to prison. A 22 year old Welsh woman, Helen Wynne Thomas, even lost her life there when she was hit by a West Midlands Police horsebox, as she stood on the safe zone waiting to cross the road near 'Yellow Gate'. Her name is the only woman's name to be recorded on the site which is now known as The Greenham Common Women\u2019s Peace Camp Commemorative & Historic Site.\nThe message from women as 'Mothers', past, present & to come, is clear,\n\"Keep your hands off our kids because there is no sacrifice too great in order to protect them!\"\n... and we will bring THAT philosophy & THAT battle cry to any 21st century challenge upon their lives or our bond with them!\nForced Adoption 2nd Ed.\nThe Gulag Of The Family Courts\nThe Politics of Breastfeeding, 3rd Edition: When Breasts are Bad for Business",

North Carolina governor Pat McCrory is putting into practice his previous assertion that the government should only subsidize those fields useful to capitalism: the North Carolina government is eliminating 46 degree programs in the state, including even human biology at its flagship institution.\nMcCrory is far from isolated in this. Continue reading \u2192\nOf disruptive innovation\nacademia, Clayton Christensen, conservatism, pedagogy, technology\nIf one follows current conversations about technological changes in higher education \u2014 which it is a major part of my job to do \u2014 one quickly encounters a great deal of praise given to \u201cdisruption\u201d and \u201cdisruptive innovation\u201d. Massive online open courses and various other online innovations, we\u2019re told, will overthrow the tired old models of education and usher in a marvelous new world far better for students than the sclerotic old habits of the deadwood professorial class.\nSo far, none of these technological trends has yet made big changes in the way higher education is done. Over the course of my lifetime, there have been only two trends in higher education that were genuinely disruptive innovations in a literal sense \u2013 that is, innovations that have genuinely disrupted the lives of the people who make up higher education. The first of these is adjunctification; the second is tuition increase.

These origins are typically taken to be a bad thing. For example, lecture-based pedagogy is said to date to a time before printing, when that was the only way students would have access to a text. So, the argument goes, it\u2019s an obsolete atavism; there is no reason to keep it around.\nI have become increasingly nervous around this line of argument. For it seems to me that a fully modernized university will be one that has no place for the humanities. Continue reading \u2192\nModernity and modernism\nPosted by Amod Lele in Metaphilosophy, Politics, Social Science\nconservatism, fundamentalism, Ken Wilber, modernism, modernity\nIt can feel pedantic to insist on the distinction between modernity and modernism (as I do in my tag cloud). I\u2019ve seen eyes roll when I do it, and understandably so. Two nouns both deriving from the word modern: surely between them is the ultimate example of a trivial distinction, a hair-splitting, a difference that does not make a difference?\nIn fact the difference between modernity and modernism can make all the difference in the world. The importance of the distinction may become a little bit clearer when we move from the nouns to their corresponding adjectives. Modernity is simply the noun form of \u201cmodern\u201d, as we might expect. But modernism is not. Modernity is merely the state of being modern. Modernism is the state of being modernist. And that is a difference that makes a huge difference.

Mitchell, Martha Nussbaum, modernism, Simone Weil, Thomas Aquinas\nLast time I discussed the relationship between the concepts of Ascent and of transcendence. I think there\u2019s more to say about the latter. Last time I had noted two forms of transcendence: an Ascent beyond the physical world, and the \u201ctranscendence by descent\u201d endorsed by Martha Nussbaum in which one transcends one\u2019s own limits. But I think there\u2019s also a third type found between them, one which I\u2019ve spoken of before in other terms.\nA key feature of any kind of transcendence, it seems to me, is dissatisfaction: something appears wrong with that which one is trying to transcend. In Nussbaum\u2019s transcendence-by-descent, one is dissatisfied with one\u2019s own weaknesses and flaws. In an Ascent, one is in some sense dissatisfied with the whole world. But what if one is dissatisfied with the whole world in a way that motivates one not to step outside the world, but to change it? Continue reading \u2192",

It was a great success and a great experience. As students, we were able to understand by doing how to do a ZEH by practically applying the research that we did. It was a great adventure watching the project building up day by day.\nEven more, we were able to carry out a series of measurements on the thermal environment and energy consumption after the construction. Then, we were eager to carry out a data analysis to compare the final project performance with our first simulations. In my thesis research, my main objective is to make the best conditions to live in a house. I always discussed with the colleagues and the designers of what are the various places that need to improve in dwellings.\nIn my current position, despite the I belong to the design department which looks primarily at making the educational and dining spaces, I am still exploring the methods of achieving comfortable environment.

Enveloped in a free-form, fun environment, the College encourages stakeholders to explore their ideas through the use of such techniques as rapid prototyping, peer-to-peer learning, and Lean Start Up. Ultimately, our goal is to provide a physical and intellectual infrastructure that allows our students and stakeholders to express their creativity, solve problems, and explore opportunities through making.\nThe College has focused its efforts on exposing makers to the tools, techniques, and practices of making. Both year-long and summer programs convene students at the high school, middle school and undergraduate levels to teach the basic techniques of making and to provide tools and equipment for students to pursue their interests in such activities as robotics, computing, or 3-D printing. Deploying faculty and others as facilitators, the students learn how STEM can be used in the real world to build things, create products, or solve problems that they are most interested in. Programs such as the Youth Entrepreneurship Club, the Youth Entrepreneurship Summer Camp and the Pre-Freshman Bridge Summer Science Program target specific student groups and provide forums for students to practice making.\nThe College\u2019s approach is to provide an academic setting that incorporates maker principles, and equipping faculty is a particular point of emphasis. Morehouse\u2019s Faculty Development Center is initiating a program to train faculty in maker education and includes orienting faculty in the use of makerspace equipment such as 3-D printers. Innovation and Lean Start Up are now topic areas within courses in the entrepreneurship program. Additionally, the Math and Science Division leads an interdisciplinary program in sustainable energy that incorporates maker ideas into STEM and STEAM coursework.\nKey initiatives and programs at the college that support the development of maker skills:\n1. The Morehouse Pan African Global Experience (MPAGE) is an international community outreach and research summer experience in which students travel to countries in West Africa (e.g. Ghana and Burkina Faso) to participate in the Solar Pioneers Project. The project teaches both STEM and non-STEM students to engineer sustainable solar power and install functional solar panels for off-the-grid communities in West Africa. Prior to participating in MPAGE, students connect with maker cultures to learn how to work with solar panels. A number of students who have completed the MPAGE program have developed plans that incorporate their maker skills into implementing creative solar panel projects on Morehouse\u2019s campus.\n2. The Pre-Freshman Bridge Summer Science Program at Morehouse supports the development of science-based maker skills. Students in this program participate in a highly innovative and engaging maker/research experience called the \u201cHigh Altitude Research Platform\u201d (HARP). Through HARP, students design, develop, and create an original research payload craft, then use weather balloons to launch their craft into \u201cnear space\u201d conditions and recover them for observation and evaluation. This technologically-sophisticated project is accomplished using scientific kits, including the StratoStar High Altitude Balloon Kit which provides GPS tracking and computerized prediction software for balloon launches and LEGO Mindstorms robotics kits which create functional onboard instruments that facilitate the manipulation of original research samples. By coupling these kits with an innovative maker/research curriculum, HARP allows students to conduct original research projects in the areas of climate studies, atmospheric particulate matter, materials science, battery technology, and alternative energy.\n3. The Youth Entrepreneurship Summer (YES) Camp is a signature program of the Morehouse College Entrepreneurship Center. The camp seeks to provide underserved metro-Atlanta high school students with opportunities to engage with entrepreneurial education and to turn ideas into action. Over a two-week non-residential period, students are exposed to the importance of innovation and creativity in all disciplines of education and all walks of life through classroom instruction, workshops and guest speaker sessions, and interactive exercises. Students gain real-world entrepreneurship experiences through field trips to innovative, cutting edge businesses. To culminate the two-week camp, students work in teams to develop and competitively pitch ideas for innovative products or services.\n4. The Youth Entrepreneurship Club (YEC), a project of the Morehouse College Community Revitalization Initiative (MCCRI), uses a specialized STEM-focused entrepreneurship curriculum to engage students at two area middle schools in experiential and project-based learning through a year-long afterschool program. YEC aims to create a culture of entrepreneurship and keep area students interested in staying in school and attending college while exposing them to the STEM areas. Students use design principles and creative processes to develop and model innovative and inventive products and services that solve real-world problems. At the end of each school year, students present their projects in an Innovation and Invention Competition. In addition to the year-long YEC program, MCCRI also operates a YEC LEGO-STEM Summer Camp in which students use the Engineering Design Process to complete LEGO building projects. MCCRI hopes to establish the YEC program as an exemplar of youth maker organizations in the Atlanta region.\n5. A newly developed Robotics Club for undergraduate students has been formed at Morehouse which supports the development of maker skills. This club is in its first semester of existence and promises to increase on-campus making opportunities for Morehouse students.\nStudents play a vital role in the maker activities on our campus, including being the primary focus of the year-long, summer, and international programs listed above. They are also involved in presenting their inventions and ideas in a broad range of maker activities at internal and external conferences. There are currently two undergraduate student organizations on Morehouse\u2019s campus that are involved in making: the newly organized Robotics Club and Students Organizing for Sustainability (SOS). SOS is involved in a project to develop cell phone charging stations powered by solar panels within the college\u2019s study halls. At Morehouse, we hope that the recent proliferation of programs and initiatives that support STEM, innovation and invention, and the development of maker skills will encourage our students to develop even more maker-focused organizations.\nA newly formed makerspace has been created at Morehouse College with funding from the National Science Foundation. This facility is a general purpose makerspace with special emphasis on sustainable energy, robotics, and the High Altitude Research Project. Equipment such as 3D printers, laser cutters, GPS telemetry and tracking devices, hand tools, electronic equipment, soldering supplies, drills, computers, robotics kits, fabrics, and craft supplies are available in the makerspace.\nA group of Morehouse College students joined over 200 makers from around the country at the 2014 Maker Faire in Atlanta. Morehouse students exhibited their high altitude research craft project developed through the HARP program.\nIn 2011, the Morehouse College Community Revitalization Initiative started an Entrepreneurship Collaborative for the purpose of connecting Youth Entrepreneurship Initiatives in the metro-Atlanta area. The Collaborative brings together youth entrepreneurship programs in the region to brainstorm ideas, share information and resources, and partner on events and programs.\nThe Youth Entrepreneurship Summer (YES) Camp is open to all metro-Atlanta high school rising sophomores and juniors. Since the inception of YES Camp 7 years ago, Morehouse has hosted participants from over 35 schools in the metro area, with a majority of participants coming from Benjamin E. Mays, Tri-Cities, and Westlake High Schools. The program\u2019s reach extends southward to Eagles Landing High School in Henry County and northward to Marietta High School in Cobb County.\nThis year, Morehouse will partner with the Georgia Institute of Technology to host the 2014 Platform Summit. The summit brings together a community of people interested in the intersections of technology, science, art, and entrepreneurship. The conference focuses on \u201cdiversity in the innovation economy,\u201d and seeks to inspire people from across all social, cultural, ethnic, and gender groups to creatively engage in social entrepreneurship.\nThe Morehouse College Community Revitalization Initiative (MCCRI) was established in 1997 as the community development arm of Atlanta\u2019s Morehouse College. Since then, MCCRI has supported nine neighborhood associations adjacent to Morehouse\u2019s campus in myriad economic development activities, which have included community education workshops and initiatives, technology training programs, and mentoring programs for youth, including the Youth Entrepreneurship Club and LEGO-STEM Summer Camp. MCCRI\u2019s goal is to affect sustained economic development and social improvement in the area through education and community involvement.\nCONima Architects is a consulting firm that works with makerspace design and implementation. Morehouse is contracting this firm for the development of our makerspace facility.\nMaker activities at Morehouse College and in the surrounding community are well established. The maker culture is increasingly taking root, and this can be seen in the growing interest from both students and faculty in expanding our offerings of courses, programs, and facilities for maker-related activity.\nWith funding from the National Science Foundation, Morehouse recently initiated the development of a makerspace facility located within the Division of Science and Mathematics. Upon announcing this new initiative, numerous unexpected faculty from programs from across campus including philosophy, art, and kinesiology/physical education have expressed interest in becoming involved with the facility and its programming. The input and participation from such a diverse group provides Morehouse with a unique opportunity to augment our thriving STEM programs with STEAM content that integrates the arts and humanities into our STEM-focused maker culture.\nAn innovation that developed from Morehouse\u2019s maker culture is the High Altitude Research Platform (HARP), in which freshmen STEM majors make and send a research payload into near space. Freshmen participants in the program have presented their projects at the Emerging Research National Conference alongside a cohort of primarily upper-level undergraduates. HARP has also been featured in an hour-long, professionally produced documentary that aired on CAU-TV, a local PBS cable channel in Atlanta, Georgia. This documentary won an Honorable Mention and a Gold Award (www.marcomawards.com) from Marcom, an international creative competition that recognizes outstanding achievement by communication professionals.\nTo date, the Morehouse College Community Revitalization Initiative has been awarded two Department of Commerce grants for a feasibility study and an incubator study to strategically guide the process of building a culture of entrepreneurship. The studies resulted in the designation of the Atlanta University Center (AUC) Corridor as an approved regional Economic Development Strategy (EDS) area. The AUC Corridor\u2019s Innovation District encompasses 40 census tracts that, according to the study, could support the following industries: 1) Aviation and Defense, 2) Software, 3) Food Processing, 4) Life Sciences, 5) Advanced Manufacturing, 6) Business and Financial Services, and 7) Creative Industries. These studies provided necessary data to jumpstart the AUC Corridor\u2019s entrepreneurial ecosystem.\nLearn more about Making at Morehouse College\nhttp://www.mcecenter.com/main.php\n@UMassLowell",

        "raw_content": "MapCarte 38/365: McArthur\u2019s Universal Corrective Map of the World, Stuart McArthur, 1979\nWhat\u2019s a \u2018normal\u2019 looking world map? If you\u2019re from Europe then north is at the top of the map and the Greenwich meridian is usually centred. If you\u2019re from North America then you\u2019d likely see the Americas centred with Europe pushed to the right and Asia appearing on the left. Of course, these are just the ways the map is normally presented. There is no particular reason but familiarity leads to a somewhat conventional view of the world. This map is designed to challenge the familiar.\nMaps can be presented in any orientation and alignment and projections give us enormous flexibility. Challenging such engrained conventions is a little harder but here, Stuart McArthur achieved just that with a relatively sparse yet stark representation. He drew his first South-Up map when he was 12 years old. His geography teacher told him to re-do his assignment with the \u201ccorrect\u201d way up if he wanted to pass. Three years later, as an exchange student in Japan, he was taunted by his friends from the USA for coming from \u201cthe bottom of the world.\u201d It was then, at age 15, he resolved to one day publish a map with Australia at the top. Six years later, while at Melbourne University, he produced the world\u2019s first \u201cmodern\u201d south up map and launched it on Australia day in 1979.\nThe map places Australia at just about the visual centre of the page but there are other subtle design elements that help reinforce the message. The gradient of light to dark tan for the land from top to bottom helps highlight Australia and has the converse effect on Asia, North America and Europe. The block of text adds a certain Australia humour to the overall map ending with \u201cSouth lives. South dominates. Long live Australia, rulers of the Universe\u201d\nThis entry was posted in MapCarte and tagged MapCarte, projections by @kennethfield.

        "raw_content": "Keeping Watch \u2013 Sermon, Oct 24 Fairview United Church Anniversary\n1 Samuel 3:1-11; John 14:1-14\nHow many of you noticed in the stained glass behind me that Jesus is wearing purple sneakers before you were told by someone else? How many of you are noticing it for the first time right now? (note: I wish I had a photo of it? Anyone?)\nWe do this all the time don\u2019t we? I\u2019ve driven one particular road many times, and the other day I noticed a home I hadn\u2019t seen before. It was a big home. I\u2019m pretty sure I hadn\u2019t noticed it there before, but I\u2019m also pretty sure it didn\u2019t just drop in there out of no where since the last time I was by.\nSometimes we just don\u2019t notice things. We don\u2019t see them but they are always there. When someone points it out to us, or we finally wake up and notice it ourselves, we feel a little silly don\u2019t we? How could be miss something so obvious!\nWell, it just happens to work out that way sometimes. We have our focus and that\u2019s what we\u2019re looking at. The road\u2026 what\u2019s happening in front of the church. Where our focus is, well, that\u2019s where we\u2019re looking. So we don\u2019t always see other things in our periphery.\nI want to share a short video clip with you. What I need you to do is to count the number of times the team in white passes the ball. That\u2019s all you have to do. If you\u2019ve seen it before, don\u2019t give the answer away please.\nDid you see it? Did you see the gorilla on the first pass?\nOnce you\u2019ve seen the gorilla, you can\u2019t miss it. It just stands out like a sore thumb. The gentlemen who created this video have made others like it, just to show how our perception can be manipulated and we can totally miss something that should be so obvious. Our focus is on counting the balls, and we totally miss the gorilla walk through the middle of the screen.\nNow that we\u2019ve had some fun, anniversary services are a fun time in the church. We invite past ministers, we invite other people we know, we all come together to share in a special day. A day we remember the past, things we have done by bringing in faces we recognize.\nHowever, I would ask a lot of churches what\u2019s different today than what happens the rest of the year? The only real difference I see in some places is we actually bring the people in we talk about the rest of the year.\nWe like to talk a lot about our past. How busy things were. How big our Sunday School was. How many used to come into our sanctuaries. We also talk about how the world changed around us and we no longer feel relevant. We haven\u2019t changed, we\u2019re still here and doing what we\u2019ve always done, so why don\u2019t people come and join us? These are all good things, but do we need to focus on them?\nWhen Samuel was lying in in the temple one night he heard a voice call his name. The only other person around was Eli, the priest, so Samuel went to him to see what he wanted. Eli hadn\u2019t called him, so sent sent the young man away. Three times this happened until Eli finally realized someone else was calling Samuel. It was the Lord. So Eli told Samuel what to say when he heard the voice again. From there God told Samuel he was going to do something new in Israel, and Samuel was going to be part of it.\nThe fun part of the story is that God told Samuel he was going to put an end to the rule of Eli and his family in the temple. Eli\u2019s kids had gone wild so it was time for someone new to take over. Those crazy preacher\u2019s kids!\nIn reality, God didn\u2019t actually do a whole lot of \u201cnew\u201d things. God, once again, was trying to restore His divine plan for creation. Just like in the Garden of Eden, people fell away from what God had in plan for the world. Throughout the prophets in the Old Testament, we see God using prophets to call people back to lives of faith. Not to do something new, but to pay attention to what God was trying to do in the first place! That being a world of peace and unity, and a world in very close relationship with its creator.\nGod was calling his people to pay attention. But people became so focused on meeting what they perceived to be their own needs, they missed what God was asking them to do. They were so focused on counting the number of times the ball was passed, they missed out on the most obvious thing in the picture.\nSo many churches out there are focused on the past, the way things have always been done. Why not really, right? It worked before, people were here by the hundreds. I see it a lot in rural churches, where the young people simply moved away from the community altogether. When a community loses its youth, the community loses its energy, its new ideas, its ability to pass a torch down to the next generation.\nBut I don\u2019t think it\u2019s over. Not by a long shot.\nMany churches may be struggling with membership and finances, but we are still here. We still have hope in the God we seek to serve. Our God who came to earth himself to show us how much He loves us by his death on a cross. Jesus said in the great commission at the end of the Gospel of Matthew that he will be with us to the end of the age. And there\u2019s that great line from the book of Romans, \u201cIf God is for us, who is against us?\u201d\nJohn 14 is a beautiful interaction between Jesus and the disciples. Jesus is sitting at the table in the upper room with the rest of the disciples. Judas has left to do what he has to do. And Jesus breaks the news he will be leaving them very soon.\nImagine after 3 years with Jesus how you would feel in this situation. All that you have seen and heard in following him. What are you going to do? You are going to feel bad? Sure your are, you don\u2019t want Jesus to leave. He has been your life and guide for 3 years, and now he\u2019s going to leave?\nPhilip makes a request, \u201cLord, show us the Father.\u201d\nJesus responds they have all seen the Father already, because they have seen him. Jesus says if you believe in him, you believe in the Father because the two are the same. Look at the works I have done, Jesus says. They speak to what God is doing. Jesus also tells the disciples that those who believe are also capable of great things, maybe even greater!\nSo\u2026 what do we believe? What are we focusing on in our churches?\nAre we focusing on what God wants us to do, or are we focusing on what we want to do?\nWhen God whispered to Samuel in the still of the night, He told Samuel he was going to do something new, something different, something that will make anyone\u2019s ears tingle who hear about it.\nWhat is God whispering to His churches? What is it that we need to get excited about? What is it we see when we look at Jesus? Do we see God in action? Do we want to be part of his amazing promise to the world?\nThere\u2019s nothing wrong with doing things the way they have always been done, if you are clear that it\u2019s what God wants you to do. By doing these things, do they excite you? Do they bear fruit? Are lives being changed? Are people being helped? Are people responding to the invitation of Jesus Christ when they take part in these activities?\nAs God\u2019s people we need to be continually checking ourselves to be sure we are doing, or still doing what God would have us do. Many times in the Old Testament God had to redirect His people. He had to change the direction they were taking because it was taking them off the path He had laid out for them. They got too focused on other parts of the journey, and missed out on what God was asking them to do. Often, they found themselves in a whole heap of trouble when they followed their own plans too long, and God pretty much had to bail them out.\nThankfully I don\u2019t think we\u2019ve gone that far off track. God hasn\u2019t had to pull us out of slavery or kill off the preacher\u2019s kids. Jesus Christ came instead. God in the flesh came in person to show us the way and to teach us directly how we are live our lives in relationship to Him, others, and the world.\nAre we close to Him? Are we listening to Him? Do we hear the call of God in our lives? And are we doing what He is calling us to do?\nGod is calling to us. Signalling us the direction to take. Are we keeping watch?",

        "raw_content": "Another tension area (that is apparently quite common) was speaking in Tongues. Being an feeling type of person, I found it hard to work out how to put some things into words of prayer. I knew I couldn't speak in Tongues, and the mere thought of attempting it caused me to clam up. God sorted that one out by catching me unawares. Whilst praying for someone at kinship I suddenly became aware that I couldn't understand a word I was saying, and I knew it didn't matter.\nThen there was the question of how I could hear God effectively. This became answered at New Wine in 1999, after a seminar on hearing God through pictures, I was given a very specific image during the praying in our small groups. The picture was of a house being locked and padlocked and it was for one of those in the group (who I didn't know). When I asked her, she said that she had just left her house to live abroad for three years and she was leaving the UK after New Wine. She was concerned over renting her home. Now I know that God can speak through images, although I might not always receive them correctly.",

Autumn 2001\nColum O'Brien\nThe Galway Experience\nGreetings from the Chair and welcome to another Newsletter.\nAs Mallory had it: 'The old order changeth, yielding place to new'.\nShortly before we went to press, Oliver O'Brien graciously accepted the position of President of the Society.\nAt the AGM held in February, I had to honour of being elected your Chairman for the coming year, and John Allen was elected Vice-Chairman. We have taken over from our esteemed predecessors Dermot McDevitt and Donal McNally who, because of outside pressures, could not continue in their offices. I would like to express our profound thanks to both Dermot and Donal for their continued help, advice, support and experience in helping keep the show on the road. Also, I would like to particularly welcome Seamus Keams back to the Committee. Seamus was a founder member of the Society in the early 1960s and also acted as Secretary for a period. You will enjoy his contribution in this issue concerning those early days.\nFurthermore, I would like to thank all the other members of the Committee for their work and effort with a special mention of our marvellous Secretary Marie Tully; our Treasurer Joe Clarke; and Ita Hackett, who did Trojan work in organising various outings, particularly the McCormack Experience in Galway last November. You are extremely fortunate in having such a marvellous group to carry on the business of the Society. As regards Galway, anyone who was there will realise that it was the experience of a lifetime. Our visitors from overseas were very highly impressed and enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Talks, expositions, a film show and recitals culminated in a marvellous tour-de-force from Oliver O'Brien. Our thanks are due to all the presenters and particularly the three principal organisers: Ita Hackett, Marie Tully and John Alien.\nOn a sad note we regret the deaths of the Society's long-time President Liam Breen and of Colum O'Brien, son of Vincent and brother of Oliver. Colum was a former President of the Society. Your Committee represented you at the removals and burial ceremonies. The Committee also expressed their sorrow to the two families and sent wreaths and Mass cards.\nOur membership is keeping up, but more would always be welcome. Do see if you can encourage your friends to sample what the Society offers, whether by attending recitals and concerts or coming on an outing, or even the trip to Killamey. This is the only way the Society can go from strength to strength. We have a number of new members and it is a joy to see them partake of the events.\nDuring the year we also had our summer outing, our annual Commemorative Mass in the Pro-Cathedral, and our Bursary Concert in the Dublin Mansion House. Our annual dinner, at which a wonderful night was had by all, was held at the QV2 Restaurant in February. And in April we were back at the Mansion House singing for the Lord Mayor and his guests.\nThis Newsletter is for you, the members. It would really be great you would make it more your own by writing features on aspects of McCormack's career, or maybe just sending your comments on aspects of the Society. Also, do let us know of your concerns or questions or how we could serve you better.\nA special word of thanks to our sponsor, Mr Frank Grennan of Athlone, who continues to support the John McCormack Bursaries for young singers.\nRisteard de Barra.\nCOLUM O'BRIEN .....It is with a great degree of sadness that I record the death of Colum O'Brien, a great personal friend both to me and to the John McCormack Society of Ireland. Although he had not been in very good health for some time, it still came as a great shock that he was gone from us. As I lived in Marlborough St for the first 27 years of my life, I always knew of the O'Brien family and their connection with the Pro-Cathedral. At that time Colum's father, Vincent, was still very much involved with the \"Pro\", and indeed I once was a member of a school choir at a competition adjudicated by him. The O'Brien family was then living on Parnell Square, so we were almost neighbours, although my brother and I went to O'Connell Schools and the O'Briens were students in Belvedere College. Both Colum and Oliver also had a long association with the Pro-Cathedral and the family's connection to that church extended to an almost unbelievable one hundred years. When the John McCormack Society was first formed, Colum became one of our most enthusiastic supporters, and gave the first of many recitals for us in St. Anthony's Hall, Merchant's Quay in November 1960. He was later invited to become the second President of the Society. His distinguished career included being a prize-winner for piano solo at the Feis Cecil, being the organist at the Pro-Cathedral for many years and being the music critic for The Irish Tatler and Sketch for a lengthy period. He will be sadly missed by his family, his many friends and by musical Dublin. May he rest in Peace.\nSeamus Kearns\nLiam Breen, who died in early May this year, was a man who made me rich in many ways. The late President of the John McCormack Society made me rich by giving me, over and over again, the joy of learning new music; the excitement of discovering the great voices of the past; the opportunity of meeting with other musical enthusiasts; and, not least, the chance of acquiring John McCormack records that were not otherwise obtainable in this country. Some of the happiest times of my young adulthood were spent in his record shops, first on Essex Quay and later in Liffey Street. And it was Liam who first gave me the chance of talking to a captive audience as one of the presenters of his monthly record recitals. Rest well, Liam.\nSome seventy members and friends of the Society from Ireland and overseas convened at the Great Southern Hotel in Galway last November for a three-day seminar devoted to the art and life of John McCormack. The McCormack Experience, as it was called, was organised by Ita Hackett, Marie Tully and John Alien. The hotel's conference centre, the focal point of the event, was decorated with historical pictures, programmes, newspaper cuttings, record sleeves and other memorabilia, most of them from the collection of Seamus Kearns. Politician and poet Michael D Higgins and his wife Sabrina were the special guests at dinner on the Sunday evening, which was followed by the opening presentation, given by John Ward from Lancashire. Chairman Dermot McDevitt welcomed all the delegates, especially the overseas members: Neil and Susan Coming from Boston; Bob Muldoon from St Louis; Barry Stapleton from Wilwaukee; John and Jean Scally from Scotland; Ken Steenson from London; and the aforementioned John Ward The programme of lectures and presentations, as featured on the opposite page, speaks for itself. But there was another dimension to the occasion - the social one. Not the least of the pleasures was the chance to meet and talk with newly-met McCormack aficionados from other places and to pick the brains of the more knowledgeable ones. Then there were the late-night sing-songs with Oliver O'Brien presiding at the piano. And who will ever forget Oliver's virtuoso performance as he took us down memory lane at the closing lecture on the Tuesday evening?

He was a little surprised that Morrough was quite enthusiastic and they straight away composed a letter to all the newspapers inviting interested people to get in touch with them with a view to implementing their idea. At that time there were three morning and three evening papers in Dublin, so they confidently expected a considerable response. Alas, only fourteen replies were received. One was from England, three were from outside Dublin and a fifth appeared to be from a rather 'dotty' character. Some days later I met Maurice as we got off the commuter train at Killester Station. He related his tale of woe, and I endeavoured to console him by saying that I hadn't seen any of the letters and that there undoubtedly were many others who either hadn't seen the letters or who just hadn't bothered to reply. We made enquiries about a possible venue, and were hugely encouraged by Fr Oliver of Merchant's Quay church. He offered the use of St Anthony's Hall beside his church for a recital of McCormack records to sound out support for a society. With seating for over 200 people and a cafe attached this was a huge boost to our spirits. The recital was most successful, with a full house attendance, and plenty of enthusiasm for the idea of a society. During the interval we decided to invite Robert L Webster and two young friends of his - Michael Keogh and Niall Ruane - to join us as a provisional committee to organise an inaugural meeting for the setting up of the Society. After some preparatory work by the provisional committee, a public meeting was held at the St Anthony's Hall, on 19 January 1960 which was attended by over 100 people. There was an amount of discussion before Mr Jonathan Hanaghan proposed 'that the John McCormack Society of Ireland be established'. Mr Dermot Hourigan seconded the proposal, and it was carried unanimously. The proposed rules of the Society were then agreed and the following Committee was elected. Chairman, Robert Webster; Hon Secretary, Morrough Linnane; Hon Treasurer, Michael Keogh. Committee: Anthony Daly, Charles Fennell, Seamus Kerns, Maurice Linnane, Gerard Murphy and Niall Ruane. At this point, some members of the audience protested that there were no women on committee. This created a problem, since the election had already been concluded. The dilemma was solved by a proposal that the committee be given the power to co-opt. Miss Joan Mullins was then co-opted on to the committee. Later in that year, Mr Theodore Mortimer was also co-opted. On 15 February 1960 the new Society's first record recital was given in the Shelboume Hotel by Maurice Linnane and Robert Webster, at the invitation of the Ireland-America Society. The next recital came about as a result of correspondence in one of the newspapers about the relative merits of Caruso and McCormack. It took place on 23 February in St Anthony's Hall and was given by Seamus Keams and Theo Mortimer, who played a selection of records by both singers. This was followed on 15 March, at the same venue, by a programme of John's ballad recordings presented by Gerard Murphy, Anthony Daly, Robert Webster and Niall Ruane. On 5 April, the Presidency of the Society was accepted by Monsignor Arthur Ryan, who had been a close friend of John. Later in the month, Mons Ryan visited Dublin and met with the committee in the Shelboume Hotel. On 19April Maurice Linnane presented a recital in St Anthony's Hall, and the next one was given by Robert Webster in the Teachers' Club on 20 May. Mr Webster was again the recitalist in Jury's Hotel on 24 May to commemorate the recent death of Lucretia Bori. On 22 July, Lily Countess McCormack presented a programme covering John's records from 1910-1941, including a then-unpublished \"Wo find ich Trost\" by Hugo Wolf. This was followed by a memorable night in the Hibernian Hotel on 20 September which was attended by many of the musical personages of Dublin. On the next evening the committee met with the Countess and with Cyril Count McCormack at the latter's home. A little earlier, on 11 September, Radio Eireann had commemorated John's death with a programme featuring Countess McCormack, John O'Donovan, Lady Dorothy Mayer, Jean Nolan, and Robert Webster. The Society's first year ended with two events: a most entertaining evening in which Colum O'Brien mixed a recital of John's records with many personal memories of his meetings with the great tenor, and a final recital given by Gerard Murphy on 29 November.\nREMINDER Annual membership fees must be renewed before the end of January",

But, I got to the port just in time to catch a hydrofoil to Mykonos and took a bungalow at Paradise Beach just outside of Mykonos Town.\nMykonos Town, pictured, was built as a rabbit warren of twisting alleys, dead ends, and wrong turns in an effort to foil and confuse any invaders. No doubt tourists fall into this category since they get more confused than anyone. I had a great time wandering through town until I was lost and continued wandering until I'd found my way out. The latter took a lot longer.\nMy main reason for going to Mykonos was to do a day trip to Delos. Delos is a 5x1 km island which held great religious significance during the Roman Empire and has been an archeological wealth of art and culture. Unfortunately, I got the distinct impression that Delos is more well-known for what's been found there and taken away rather than for what remains. It made for an enjoyable day of exploring nonetheless.\nMy ferry trip from Mykonos to Milos had a day-long layover in Santorini which gave me a chance to get some more shots of the Caldera from the sea.",

Between 1959 and 1961, the saxophonist and composer released six studio albums on Atlantic Records that helped usher in the avant-garde, free jazz movement.\nThose albums, along more than two hours of session outtakes, are featured together in the 10-LP boxed set ORNETTE COLEMAN: THE ATLANTIC YEARS, featuring newly remastered audio by John Webber at AIR Studios. Several of these titles are long out-of-print on vinyl. The Ornette Coleman Legacy, featuring six songs originally released for the first time in 1993 as part of Rhino's CD boxed set Beauty Is A Rare Thing, making its vinyl debut. The new vinyl set from Rhino will be available on May 25 for $174.98.\nThe LPs are presented in replica European-style 1960s jackets in a side-loading slipcase along with a 12 x 12 booklet with new liner notes written by renowned author-music critic Ben Ratliff, plus rare pictures taken by legendary jazz photographer Lee Friedlander.\nThe albums featured in the set are: The Shape Of Jazz To Come (1959), Change Of The Century (1959), This Is Our Music (1960), Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation (1960), Ornette! (1961), Ornette On Tenor (1961), The Art Of Improvisers (1970), Twins (1971), To Whom Who Keeps A Record (1975), and The Ornette Coleman Legacy (1993.)\nOn most of his Atlantic albums, Coleman recorded with a quartet that included trumpeter Don Cherry, plus either Charlie Haden or Scott LaFaro on bass, and either Billy Higgins or Ed Blackwell on drums. One notable exception is Free Jazz, a ground-breaking single-track album where Coleman led a double quartet through a nearly 40-minute collective improvisation. The stereo mix used for the album separates the quartets into different channels; one on the right and the other on the left.\nColeman worked extensively with producer Nesuhi Ertegun on the music featured in this collection. Their partnership began in 1959 with Coleman's Atlantic debut, The Shape of Jazz To Come, an album the Library of Congress added to its National Recording Registry in 2012.\nAmong the albums included in THE ATLANTIC YEARS are three compilations that Atlantic released in the 1970's: The Art Of Improvisers (1970), Twins (1971), and To Whom Who Keeps A Record (1975.)

        "title": "Rhino Acquires Jefferson Starship, Starship & Hot Tuna Catalogs, Grace Slick Solo Albums Now Available Digitally | Rhino Media",
        "raw_content": "RHINO ENTERTAINMENT ACQUIRES LEGENDARY\nLOS ANGELES - Rhino Entertainment, Warner Music Group's renowned catalog label, has acquired the rights to the legendary catalogs of Jefferson Starship, Starship & Hot Tuna, effective today. Also included in the deal are rights to a selection of Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna albums, solo albums by Grace Slick, and additional albums and Grunt label signings related to various other band members including Paul Kantner and David Freiberg.\nThe announcement was made by Rhino President Mark Pinkus and band manager Jeff Jampol. The agreement includes the use of master recordings spanning nearly twenty years, from Jefferson Airplane's 1972 album Long John Silver to Starship's 1991 Greatest Hits (Ten Years And Change 1979-1991) compilation. To coincide with the announcement, Rhino has released a new digital compilation Starship Enterprise: The Best Of Jefferson Starship & Starship and has also made all four Grace Slick solo albums (Manhole, Dreams, Welcome To The Wrecking Ball!, and Software) available digitally for the first time.\n\"We're real happy to have Rhino take over so much of our catalog,\" said bassist Jack Casady. \"They have an avid interest in keeping all the great music from our youth relevant and we look forward to a great relationship and all that will manifest.\"\n\"With Rhino's awesome track record of bona fides I am thrilled that they will be shepherding the re-releases of so much of our catalog,\" added bandmate Jorma Kaukonen. \"I can think of no better record company to handle this task.\"\nIn 1972, Jefferson Airplane lineup took a break after releasing the band's seventh studio album, Long John Silver. With the Airplane on hiatus, Casady and Kaukonen focused on their side project Hot Tuna. Playing with a revolving cast of musicians, they recorded five albums over five years, including the group's 1972 studio debut, Burgers. In 1973, Slick recorded Manhole, the first of her four solo albums. That same year, she and Kantner formed Jefferson Starship with fellow Airplane alumni Freiberg, Papa John Creach, and John Barbata, as well as guitarist Craig Chaquico. Jefferson Airplane founding member Marty Balin also joined the band in 1975. Jefferson Starship released eight albums between 1974 and 1984. Each of them was certified gold or better and helped the band assemble a steady streak of classic hit singles such as \"Count On Me,' \"Jane,\" \"Find Your Way Back, and \"Miracles\" from their 1975 double platinum #1 album Red Octopus.\nIn 1985, the band shortened its name to Starship before Slick, Chaquico, Mickey Thomas, Pete Sears, and Donny Baldwin set off in a new musical direction. Over the next five years, Starship would record three albums, including the band's 1985 debut, Knee Deep In The Hoopla. A massive hit, the album was certified platinum and features two iconic #1 singles \"We Built This City\" and \"Sara.\" Starship's music continues to be embraced in the streaming age, with both \"We Built This City\" and \"Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now\" surpassing the 100 million stream mark on Spotify, a rare feat for 30-year-old songs.\n\"Overseeing and managing great artists' legacies is a very specialized business, with a unique set of issues, problems, needs, and careful oversight. Rhino has the great ability to commit themselves, their extensive resources, and their passion for great music & art into long-term results and respectful handling of legacy artists' careers and work, said Jampol, manager for Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, Starship, and Hot Tuna. \"It was amazing to us how passionate Rhino President Mark Pinkus was about these artists and their music - he was a true fan(atic)!

        "title": "RADAR: N.J. Supreme Court Takes Up Crespo",
        "raw_content": "N.J. Supreme Court Takes Up Crespo\nOn October 6th, the New Jersey Supreme Court announced it would hear the Crespo appeal. Crespo is the case that, among other things, challenges the constitutionality of Protective Orders issued under the \"Preponderance of the Evidence\" standard of proof, which is among the lowest of all legal standards of proof in the U.S. A lower court judge ruled that \"Preponderance of the Evidence\" is not sufficient to remove a person from their home and deny them access to their children. The appeals court overturned the decision. But New Jersey attorney David Heleniak has convinced the N.J. Supreme Court to review the case. According to Heleniak, a victory in the New Jersey high court could have ripple effects across the country.\nThe way protective orders are issued is one example of the erosion of civil rights and due process protections in cases alleging domestic violence. Mandatory arrest, \"predominant aggressor\" and \"primary aggressor\" laws, no drop prosecution, low standards of proof for protective orders, over-broad definitions of domestic violence, and Federal funding that encourages officials to interpret as many cases as possible as domestic violence cases, have all lead to the predictable result: massive civil rights violations in the area of domestic violence.\nA recent article at crosscut.com (http://crosscut.com/blog/crosscut/19135) illustrates what happens all too often. The police, the prosecutor, and the judge, all chasing VAWA funding, choose to see domestic violence even in cases where the woman they want to paint as victim vehemently insists that rather than domestic violence, what actually happened was that her husband accidentally knocked her over while saving her from being run over by oncoming traffic. In doing so, these officials perpetrate massive harm on the innocent citizens they're charged with protecting.\nIn no other area of the law have civil rights and due process been so weakened. DV laws lead to politically driven justice instead of the impartial rule of law guaranteed by the federal and state constitutions.\nPlease notify your state legislators and let them know that the New Jersey Supreme Court has sufficient constitutional concerns for a hearing on civil rights and due process in DV laws. Tell them to undertake similar reviews and make legislative changes to DV legislation in your state.\nDate of RADAR Release: November 2, 2009",

        "title": "Obesity myths - snopes.com",
        "raw_content": "Obesity myths\nWhat are the most common misconceptions about obesity, and who is spreading them?\nhttp://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/...,5487871.story\nAmericans are getting fat because they're eating more. In fact, as Steven Blair points out, \"we do not have data on average daily energy expenditure or on changes in this variable, and the data we have on average daily energy intake are questionable. Therefore the fundamental cause of the increases in obesity prevalence observed over the past several years cannot be determined.\"\nBut, since just 250 years ago, over 90% of the population was involved in food production... and today it is under 3%, and the percentage of sedentary jobs is significantly higher than it was then, doesn't this mean that his denigration of this theory is a bit... off?\nHmmmm, I don't have imperical data that says if Silas jumps off a big building he will go squish, therefore I can't say that he will.\nWe've become a nation of couch potatoes. At the risk of repetition, we simply don't know if Americans are now less active than they have been historically -- the data just aren't available\nHow much time was spent in school and watching TV back in the 30's/40's/50's? How about now? Hmmmm. See my questions of point #1.\nYet increasing rates of \"overweight\" and \"obesity,\" so-called, correlate closely with increasing affluence -- as does steadily increasing life expectancy and steadily improving health for people of all ages.\nSo, the fatter I get, the more affluent I will become? And the fattest are the most affluent? What of the large numbers of people in low/no income families that eat like crap and are fat? And the increase in life expectancy can be explained by them receiving better medical care because they are wealthy - and they get the care either from their own money or as a benefit from their jobs.\nWhile there is a bit of good info in this article, there is just so much wrong with it that I am amazed.\nI agree with Malruhn (did I just hear the gallop of four horsemen?)\nTo me, the article seems to be arguing that,\n1) We have no idea what's causing the obesity epidemic, but it sure isn't any of the most obvious answers. Perhaps space mutants are beaming fat rays at us.\n2) Fat people aren't really fat; they're just big-boned. Apparently, big bones cause diabetes. Or maybe those mischevous aliens are beaming obesity-related diseases at us, too.\n3) Whatever is making people fat, it couldn't possibly be their fault, and we can't expect people armed with information to make informed choices. We'd better pass some laws. Against space mutants and their evil death rays.\nI realize that the causes of obesity are more complicated than \"people are lazy slobs who need to stop eating so many Doritos!\" But this article takes it to such an extreme, it stretches credulity to the breaking point. Are we really supposed to believe that Americans (and others, all over the world, though to lesser extents) aren't eating higher-fat, more calorie-dense diets than before, that current lifestyles aren't more sedentary, and that even if they were, these things would have nothing to do with people getting fatter? Or, that no one is capable of making conscious choices to improve their weight and health? Please.\nOriginally Posted by Malruhn\nThe percetange of people in an industry says little about how productive that industry is. And I'm not sure what the percentage of sedentary jobs has to say about the eating habits of Americans.\nAs TV isn't the only thing keeping us from activity, I'm afraid this doesn't answer the question of whether we're more or less active than we were years ago.\nYou're misunderstanding. He means as a society becomes more affluent, the fatter its citizens become. He isn't discussing the relative obesity of citizens within a society.\nLast edited by Steve; 21 September 2007 at 03:07 AM.\nIt doesn't say anything about the eating habits, but it does say quite a bit about the relative caloric burn. Even with today's more industrialized methods of farming, a person who works for 10 or 12 hours outside in the sun on a farm can be expected to burn many more calories than a person who works an indoor job for 8 or 9 hours at a desk. I would be extremely surprised to find that farming was not much more labor intensive in the days before tractors and harvesters and such.\nIt doesn't say anything about the eating habits, but it does say quite a bit about the relative caloric burn. {snip} I would be extremely surprised to find that farming was not much more labor intensive in the days before tractors and harvesters and such.\nIn fact, while we do not have \"precise data\" on the energy expenditure of farmers of yore, we do have data on people who today rely on less industrialized farming tehniques- for example Old Order Amish- that supports what you are saying. I will try to dig up some cites or examples.\nETA cite\nPhysical Activity in Amish\nLast edited by Dr. Dave; 21 September 2007 at 02:58 PM.\nI don't think a person driving a piece of farming machinery for 10 or 12 hours per day is burning significantly more calories that someone who is sitting at a desk for an equivalent amount of hours per day.\nBut I think the article's detractors above are missing the point of the article: scientific assumptions about obesity's causes and ill effects are being made absent scientific data, and that is bad science.\nHaving worked both on a farm and at a more sedentary job, I would have to disagree. Merely being in the sun requires more calories in an effort to keep the body cool. Also, even if you do drive a tractor a lot of the time, that is not all that you do.\nBut that isn't what I said.\nThis is the salient point of the piece.\nHailbug\nDon't mind me.....I am going to sit in front of the computer for the next couple of hours and then move to the couch to watch The View. I really have a hankering for a pint of ice cream too but that would require getting off my butt and going to the grocery store. The lawn really needs to be mowed, but I am just not in the mood.\nFind all posts by Hailbug\nThese seem not so much like \"myths\" as like \"generally believed ideas that have not been tested.\"\nFind all posts by ThistleS\nOriginally Posted by ThistleS\nDoesn't \"generally believed ideas\" fall under what a myth would be?\nI would think \"myth\" would require some component of not being true. These ideas haven't even been tested, much less proven false.\nThats my point though, we cannot call them \"true\" since there is no evidence to back up that so called \"truth\" It would rank as \"undetermined\". Basically the fact that somebody accepts it as true, makes it somewhat mythical even if a kernel of it is true.\nHm. I don't really agree, I think a myth would be something that is definitely not true but believed anyway. I don't really know folklore well enough to know for sure though.\nMy point, though, was actually that the article makes it sound like these are things people believe even though they aren't true, when actually no one knows if they are true or not.",

In fact, we love erotic romance books and want to share it!\nPeople often assume that by reading erotic romance books you\u2019re only reading sex- but it\u2019s not true. There is a great story waiting to be told and so what if there\u2019s a little hot sexin\u2019 going on? It\u2019s just like any other romance novel except with a little more heat and that makes it so much better! Sadly, the media portrays it as \"offensive and abusive\" to woman.

We will be doing a month long giveaway hop with erotic romance authors showing you that there is more to the story than hot sex. It\u2019s similar to the game of \u2018Guess Who\u2019.

The readers will then have to guess who the character is with a \u2018Who Am I\u2019 post and leave a comment on who they think it is. There will be five winners a week, and at the end of the hop there will be a chance at winning a grand prize of books and more.

But the truth is, Shah Rukh is going through the toughest phase of his career and he desperately needs a big hit.\nBollywood actors Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma today visited Varanasi to promote their upcoming movie \"Jab Harry Met Sejal\".\nThe long wait by Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma and Imtiaz Ali fans is finally coming to an end on August 4.\nEverything is looking in favour of the movie as of now.\nThe movie will release in 2500-3000 screens. It seems to have all ingredients of a ideal rom-com. Trade experts also believe that it will surpass the collections of Dilwale and Raees.\n\"I have always dreamt about sharing screen space with Shah Rukh Khan and I got the chance on \"Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai\". Usually, the pre-bookings of any Bollywood movie start from Wednesday, but since it is an SRK movie, the online booking service began from Monday itself. Well, the questions will be answered tomorrow and we are expecting the answers to be yes. A search for Sejal's engagement ring makes Harry understand love and relationships better.\nSRK may not have had box office success expected from his films, but he certainly has made a lot of money on the opening days in the past two years.\nAre you excited to watch the full version of Phurrr? \"In fact, it's weird that everyone knows when we meet now\".\nStarting this Friday, Krispy Kreme will sell the Reese's Peanut Butter Doughnut at select locations , Krispy Kreme said Thursday. The treat features Reese's peanut butter cream filling and chocolate icing.\nAs reported by the New York Times , the Administration is pointing resources to the Justice Department's civil rights division. The Justice Department is running scared from the Times story, refusing comment and denying interview requests.\nIt is definitely looking like the Indians could pull off an away win and leave the Red Sox struggling to get back on track.

Substance abuse disorders and other physical health concerns accompany and multiply the problems. Community Health Workers are an important part of the health care team to help their clients to recognize and seek treatment for behavioral health and substance abuse disorders that are affecting their health. This module is designed to provide an overview of mental health disorders, recognition of symptoms and treatment methods and the role of the Community Health Worker in identifying and supporting their clients to recover and lead a productive and healthy life.\nUnderstand that Mental Illnesses is disease. The only difference between Depression and debilitating arthritis is the location in the body.\nUnderstand and Identify personal preconceptions and misconceptions about Mental Illnesses.\nUnderstand the impact that Mental Illness has on an individual and society.\nIdentify symptoms of common Mental Illnesses\nUnderstand different treatment settings from in-patient to outpatient and the different health care professionals that are involved in the treatment plan.\nIdentify two to four barriers individuals face in seeking treatment.\nIdentify specific treatment facilities for your clients in Northern NH including medical and peer support services.\nReview the steps that Community Health Workers can take to support their client\u2019s in treatment.\nMental health enables people to realize their potential, cope with the normal stresses of life, work productively, and contribute to their families and communities.\nPeople with Mental Illnesses experience disproportionately higher rates of disability and mortality. For example, persons with Major Depression and Schizophrenia have a 40% to 60% greater chance of dying prematurely than the general population, owing to physical health problems that are often left unattended [such as Cancers, Cardiovascular diseases, Diabetes and HIV infection] and suicide. Suicide is the second most common cause of death among young people worldwide. [1]\nMental Illnesses often affect, and are impacted by, other diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and HIV infection/AIDS. People with Mental Illness may experience an increase in symptoms when they have a co-morbid physical health diagnoses. Some Mental Illnesses increase the likelihood of certain physical illnesses. For example, there is evidence that depression predisposes people for myocardial infarction and diabetes, both of which conversely increase the likelihood of depression. Hypothyroidism can create depressive symptoms. Social determinants of health impact the severity of symptoms in Mental Illness just as they would with a physical health diagnoses. Many risk factors such as low-socioeconomic status, alcohol use and stress are common to both Mental Illnesses and other non-communicable diseases. There is also substantial concurrence of Mental Illnesses and substance use disorders. [2]\nAccording to the National Institute of Mental Health, Mental Illnesses are common throughout the United States, affecting tens of millions of people each year, and that, overall, only about half of those affected receive treatment. [3]It is crucial to overall health that Mental Illness be identified and treated so that people are able to live their fullest possible lives.\nWhat is Mental Health & Mental Illness, YouTube video with Dr. Mike Condra, Queen University Director of Health Counselling and Disability Services summarizing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNQBdIMM3mQ 5:32 minute\n[1] http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/10665/89966/1/9789241506021_eng.pdf?ua=1 World Health Organization 2013 to 2020 Mental Health Action Plan\n[3] https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/statistics/index.shtml\nDraft Diabetes Module for CHWs\nDraft-BH Module for CHWs",

        "raw_content": "Sundance London 2017: Wilson\nAdaptations of Daniel Clowes\u2019 graphics novels for the big screen have been hit-and-miss in the past; Ghost World was a bonafide hit that\u2019s become a cult classic, but the 2006 follow-up Art School Confidential was fairly universally disliked by both audiences and critics. Perhaps that\u2019s why it\u2019s taken so long for another director to attempt bringing Clowes\u2019 work to the big screen \u2013 but Craig Johnson is hoping third time\u2019s a charm with Wilson.\nClowes\u2019 graphic novel about a socially-awkward middle-aged man has been altered for clarity by the author himself, who served as screenwriter for Wilson, as he did with Ghost World and Art School Confidential. Woody Harrelson plays the titular character, a lonely, socially-awkward and inappropriate middle-aged man who attempts to reconnect with his ex-wife and newly-discovered daughter. He\u2019s joined by Laura Dern, Isabella Amara and Judy Greer in what should be a recipe for success, but unfortunately, Johnson doesn\u2019t manage to replicate the magic of his previous film, The Skeleton Twins.\nIn The Skeleton Twins, Johnson proved he could tell a great story about two deeply unhappy and often unlikable characters, but he can\u2019t pull it off a second time around. Whilst Harrelson is fun to watch as Wilson and Laura Dern as great as always, there\u2019s just not enough to really make the story compelling. Isabella Amara is irritating as Wilson\u2019s long-lost daughter, making it difficult for you to really care about her or her relationship with her parents, and a solid first act quickly turns into a rather frustrating second and third. The film definitely retains some of its graphic novel feel, jumping out of the screen with its bright colour pallet and sing-song score, and Clowes\u2019 dialogue is by and large as good as it is in his books, but it just feels like something is sadly lacking. It\u2019s a fair way to spend ninety minutes, but by no means a comedy that you\u2019ll watch over and over again.\nRelated Topics:Craig JohnsonLaura DernWilsonWoody Harrelson\nSundance London 2017: Icarus\nSundance London 2017: Crown Heights",

Because Montana adoption law does not allow a homosexual couple to adopt a child, Ms. Maniaci legally adopted the children as a single person, but the couple jointly raised the children during their relationship. In 2006, the couple decided to separate and in January 2007, Ms. Kulstad filed a lawsuit to ensure she would be able to continue parenting her children and to receive her share of the property the couple accumulated during the time they were together.\nA two day trial took place in May 2008 and a court-appointed expert testified strongly in Ms. Kulstad\u2019s favor, indicating the children had formed a strong bond with Ms. Kulstad and that denying her time with them would be detrimental. The trial court found that Ms. Kulstad had a parent-child relationship and that it was in their best interest to maintain that relationship. Thus, the court granted Ms. Kulstad visitation rights to the children.\nMs. Maniaci appealed the decision to the Montana Supreme Court and oral arguments were heard on behalf of both Ms. Maniaci and Ms. Kulstad. The Montana Supreme Court upheld the decision of the trial court 6 \u2013 1 and upheld the Montana law that recognizes parent-child relationships that arise outside of biology and adoption when certain criteria are met.\nThough this case happened to involve a lesbian couple, such a decision could affect many heterosexual couples in Montana. For example, a person who has acted as a parent to a girlfriend/boyfriend\u2019s child may have continuing rights to act as a parent to the child even after the relationship has ended.",

        "raw_content": "We've reproduced below two of the better essays written by students for the first midterm exam: Essay 1 (on gasoline addiction) and Essay 2 (on nuclear reactors). Read these to get an indication of what we were looking for. Congratuations Catie and Liam!\nExam Essay Question 1: Some people say that the United States is \ufffdaddicted\ufffd to gasoline. Compare gasoline to alternative ways of powering an automobile. Describe both the advantages and disadvantages of the alternatives you discuss, compared to a gasoline engine.\nexam essay written by by Catie Cuan:\nGasoline used to be far less expensive that it is now. It is also easy to store, has 15 times more energy per gram than TNT and is familiar to the public. However, rising price of oil, wars in the Middle East, and only 20-25% efficiency for gas has led many to seek alternatives for powering our cars.\nA recent development is the hybrid vehicle, which utilizes a combination to electric power and gasoline. These cars are 40-60% efficient (meaning they lose the remaining percent of the energy to heat), and are able to recharge when breaking (by running a generator, this is called \ufffdbattery breaking\ufffd). Therefore the car uses less gasoline, emits less pollution, and has better mileage than a gas ca, especially at constant speed. However, hybrid vehicle owners must factor in the cost of replacing the batteries, which make the overall price tag comparable to a gas powered car. Hybrids still use gas, so the U.S. still has top purchase/manufacture oil.\nAnother alternative automobile is the electric car. These are run on batteries alone which are about 85-90% efficient. They emit no pollution( except perhaps for the power plant which manufactures the batteries and provides the electricity) and an owner can plug their car into a typical plug and pay about 10 cents for a kilowatt-hour. Some problems with electric cars include their short driving range, cost of replacing batteries, and the batteries\ufffd weight. Some examples of such electric cars in production (development) are GEM cars, the Chevy Volt, and the Tesla Roadster.\nAnother alternative is a hydrogen car. Hydrogen has 3 times more energy per gram than gasoline, but 3 times less per gallon, meaning it is difficult to store. One more disadvantage to hydrogen cars include the fact that hydrogen must be extracted (from either H2O or fossil fuels) which takes energy, so hydrogen is generally thought of as a carrier rather than a source.\nSolar powered cars are also being researched, though so far do not seem like a good alternative. Some advantages include the fact that the sun is renewable, plentiful, and a solar car would emit no pollution. However solar cells are incredibly expensive and only 15-40% percent efficient. For example, if you attach a 1 sqm solar cell to the top of a car, it would end up being 0.1-0.2 hp. A typical gasoline car operates at 100 hp. Solar power also doesn\ufffdt exist at night, so cars would need and energy storage mechanism. Companies are developing CIGS and solar cells which concentrate sunlight to make solar cells cheaper, CalSol is such a project.\nCoal is the last alternative. It is cheap, plentiful, and has an existing infrastructure. But coal also emits high levels of pollution which leads to global warming and leaves an ash residue, it is only 35% efficient. Many agree that America should end it\ufffds gas reliance soon.\nExam Essay Question 2: What is the purpose of a nuclear reactor? How does it work? What are the potential dangers? Give historical examples. Are there things that many people think are true about reactors that, in Muller\ufffds analysis, are not?\nexam essay written by Liam (William) Cabal:\nThe purpose of a nuclear reactor is to provide electricity by having radiation heat water, which produces steam which then turns turbines to produce electricity. The heat comes from a sustained nuclear chain reaction where the neutrons from U-235 hit other uranium atoms and constantly sustain the reaction. In the reactor, 97% U-238 and 3% U-235 is used, whereas a uranium nuclear bomb needs at least 80% U-235 to properly explode. Since the reactor needs so much less U-235, there is little enrichment necessary as 99.3% of natural uranium is U-238 with 0.7% being U-235. Additionally, nuclear reactors rely on only one of the 2 neutrons released to continue the constant reaction whereas nuclear bombs require both of them to produce the doubling effect needed for the explosion. To sustain the reaction without producing the doubling, nuclear reactors use a moderator to slow down the neutrons to facilitate less reactions. The moderator can be water, which is what the U.S. uses in its reactors; or heavy water, which is what Canada uses; or graphite. The water moderator also acts as a coolant to prevent overheating. In addition to the rods (or pellets) of uranium used for the reaction, there are control rods of U-238 that can be used to stop the reaction if something were to go wrong.\nOne potential danger in using a nuclear reactor is that the core could overheat from a problem with the coolant, which would cause a meltdown where the nuclear material could melt through the floor into the earth (but not all the way through like the \"China Syndrome\" suggests). Another potential danger is that the reaction could become uncontrolled (the control rods could malfunction) and an explosion could occur. Some of these dangers were realized in two historical examples: Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. The Chernobyl plant in the Ukraine had a problem and overheated causing an explosion that caused radiation to spread across the countryside. If the linear hypothesis is correct, it caused an additional 24,000 cancers; if not, the number was less than 1000. Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania had a meltdown and administrators chose to vent radiation into the air, which appears to have only increased radiation in the region negligibly.\nThe public has some misconceptions about nuclear rectors. The first is that if there is an explosion, it would be like a nuclear bomb, but because there is far less U-235 used, that is wrong. The explosion would be more like a TNT explosion \u2013 bad, but not as much. Another misconception is that there is no safe place to store the wast including the byproduct Pu-239, which is used for making bombs. That is also wrong since scientists can guarantee the safety of stored wast in Yucca Mountain for 10,000 years. Overall there are some dangers with nuclear power, but not enough not to use it.",

        "raw_content": "Album Review: Century Palm \u2013 Meet You\nToronto band Century Palm have just released their first LP Meet You, a nostalgic album that mixes garage punk with new wave influences. Simple yet catchy guitar riffs and fast paced, upbeat drum rhythms give the album a grungy feel, as if its sound was literally emerging from someone\u2019s garage. These retro styles make Meet You a fun album, though not always an especially unique or distinct one.\nAndrew Payne and Paul Lawton\u2019s vocals are vital to the album\u2019s sombre ambiance. The gloomy vocals, which sometimes veer closer to speaking than singing, are hypnotizing. In \u201cSick of It\u201d the vocals even takes on a Lou Reed quality. Their deep morose voices combined with melancholic synths lend a distinctly new wave feel to the material. One of the most engaging parts of Meet You is the way those darker synths and the lighter guitar play off of each other. \u201cKing of John St.,\u201d for example, begins with a high-pitched guitar riff that gives the song a playful quality while the lower synth provides the song\u2019s depth. Halfway through, the synth and guitar switch roles, with the synth playing the high riff before ending on more sonorous sounds. This back-and-forth gestures towards one of the album\u2019s recurring themes: something darker is always lingering below the surface.\nWhile these individual songs are catchy, the album as a whole starts to feel somewhat repetitive. The upbeat guitar \u2013 one of the most enjoyable features in this album \u2013 tends to get a bit lost within the steady tempo and drum patterns. A saxophone in \u201cSick of It\u201d is a welcome addition to the band\u2019s instrumentation; the rest of the album could have benefitted from more of the sonic diversity it brings.\nAlmost hidden in the musical arrangements are the emotionally vulnerable lyrics. The album begins with a dark, horrifying description of anxiety and depression in \u201cReset Reaction,\u201d a study that continues throughout the entire album. Of course, no such exploration by a Canadian band would be complete without a description of seasonal depression like the one found in the first verse of \u201cKing of John Street.\u201d The use of the second person perspective throughout the lyrics makes it seem like the vocalist is addressing and questioning himself, a process similarly referenced by the album\u2019s title. Payne explores the battle between who you think you are and who you might be, what you are and what you want to be, and what you feel yourself to be and how you present yourself on the outside. This duality of self is best displayed in \u201cKing of John Street,\u201d where Payne sings, \u201cSpending all my days in the east side / forgetting who I was on the other side / the Queen connects us, but I divide / don\u2019t think I don\u2019t think about it.\u201d These geographic metaphors avoid heavy-handedness because of the nonchalant way in which Payne delivers them.\nMeet You is an album steeped in interesting combinations: the driving garage punk rhythms mixed with the deep new wave synths and vocals, upbeat riffs paired with vulnerable lyrics. Though the garage punk and new wave influences help make for an engaging blend of styles, it\u2019s not always enough; without much experimentation in tempo and instrumentation, Meet You at times feels a bit too safe.\nThis entry was posted in Reviews and tagged century palm, Ella Chatfield-Stiehler, meet you on March 23, 2017 by librarian.",

        "raw_content": "So, we despise our politicians and they aren\u2019t doing a very good job. I think the problem with governments throughout the world is that they seem to have forgotten what their purpose is. A government should be an entity that solely exists to serve the people. It is also to provide stability and to ensure that we have the maximum amount freedom without unduly taking away the freedom of others.\nLately governments have forgotten this. They seem to have grown an ego. The government seems to think that we are ignorant children that need protecting. The people that make up the government also think it is a game. Just look at the stupid crap that goes on during question time not to mention all the backroom shenanigans.\nThis is a serious problem. Let\u2019s take one example. I\u2019m not entirely sure whether the Abbott government have succeeded in \u201cStopping The Boats\u201d after attaining power because of government secrecy on this issue, but let\u2019s just assume that they have. Just imagine that, back in 2012 Tony Abbott and the Liberal party had foolproof way to \u201cstop the boats\u201d and to prevent mass drownings. Now the Labour Party are using a number of policies in an attempt to stop the mass drownings at sea, but failing. What should happen is they ask the Liberal party to help them create a bipartisan solution to the issue. Both parties work together share ideas and finally come up with a solution together that saves lives.\nNow of course this isn\u2019t what happened. Instead Abbott carried on about how our government is an adversarial system and it is not right for both sides to cooperate. It would also hurt him politically to share his secret plan before he won the next Federal election. Gillard on the other hand was very reluctant to work with the Liberal party because it would also hurt her politically. Politicians are willing to put people lives above petty politics. It\u2019s both pathetic and disgusting.\nAnother big issue is the complexity of our society. Over the past 30 years the complexity of our society has increased to a ridiculous extent. In the 16th century it was possible to literally know everything. When our current governmental system was developed society was far simpler. They could play all their silly political games and it didn\u2019t take a large amount of intelligence to govern those societies.\nWith the Internet, instantaneous global communication and the expansion of the financial sector has meant governments need to make more, and more complex, decisions, in shorter periods of time all while managing the media and more.\nI believe this has led to the development of political doctrines that are more in line with religious beliefs than sound management. There are a number of these: the devotional attachment to budget surpluses, the belief that taxes should never be raised no matter how far the budget is in the red, introducing more mandatory sentencing, national security is sacrosanct - telling a government to stop spying on their own people is heresy. Drugs like marijuana could never be legalised as it would \u201csend the wrong message.\u201d Decisions are made for arbitrary or emotional reasons with the zeal of the Spanish Inquisition.\nThis could be very difficult to fix. For starters we need to make sure that our politicians know we want petty politics to stop and we want our politicians to the right thing and govern. Forget the 24 hour media cycle, forget the nanny state. I think that governments should also have a panel of experts as their cabinet. Have economists, scientists, doctors etc. in cabinet. We want decisions to be made on a scientific basis rather than on emotional ones.\nMaybe we can also set up experiments to test certain laws and to determine any unintended consequences. Set up a floating city as an experiment - people could volunteer to live there and different laws could be tried and government types could be tested.\nThey could also learn from the mistakes and successes of other countries. Our leaders need to be more scientific in the creation of legislation. Only introduce new laws that have been proven to work. Eliminate laws that are stupid, obsolete or counter-productive. They could also try to make things simpler such as cleaning up the taxation system and getting rid of the mountains of red tape. Remove artificial barriers in our economy.\nIn the future we can develop new forms of government appropriate for our time, rather than the 19th century. Direct democracy is where everybody gets a say on legislation through the use of referendums. There is also open source governance which would manage decisions using social networks and other technologies. Maybe a combination of the two? Further into the future we could create an artificial intelligence to act as a benevolent dictator. Of course there would be an off switch\u2026\nOur leaders should be people that we can respect. They should be trustworthy and competent at their job. Politicians have forgotten they are not to our betters - we don\u2019t need protecting from ourselves. Dispense with this nanny state \u201cit might send the wrong message\u201d bullshit - we aren\u2019t children. Stop wasting taxpayer\u2019s money on crap. I also want projects on a national scale that can fire the imagination.\nMost of all, I want leaders that will stop acting like childish idiots and lead.",

        "raw_content": "The BonsaiBot prototype is finally together and driving around. Most of it was developed from scratch. It was designed by Nick Fryer and Peter McKenzie using 3-D printed and laser cut parts. That blue 3-D printed box in the front of the robot is for the electronics which consists of an Arduino Mega, a Pololu Dual VNH5019 Motor Driver Shield and an XBee S1 paired with one plugged into my PC. As you can see it is a differential drive rover, the design was inspired by an old Sibbing front wheel drive electric wheelchair my brother and I used to drive.\nThis rover is driven from a Windows 7 PC using a C# application that I wrote. It uses the Command Messenger library to talk to the Arduino sending serial commands using the paired XBees. On the Arduino side is a pretty simple program that uses the Dual VNH5019 Motor Driver and the Command Messenger libraries. Video is sent using an IP camera at the moment although we do have a far better system (we hope) on its way.\nIt is very much a prototype but it does work well enough to chase the dogs around and scare small children. On the to-do list is to develop a single program that does it all without having a browser window open in the background. It would also be good to have a system that uses Wi-Fi as that is far more ubiquitous than XBees. If it is to be used as a telepresence robot you really need to be able to send commands to it through the Internet, so I am also playing around with TCP/IP as a way to send information to the robot.\nSo it\u2019s awesome, but we still have a lot of work ahead of us. Below is a video of the robot driving around inside (please ignore the part where I crash into the fridge). C# and Arduino source files",

They occupied a large range of territory around the Upper Missouri and from the North Saskatchewan rivers to the Rockies in the early 19th century. Their name derives from their tribal custom of dyeing their moccasins black.\nThey were comprised of three tribes, The Sisika, The Piegam, and the Kainah. Although for the most part they did not form a unified political entity, they were united in defending their lands and in warfare.\nThe Blackfoot were unremittingly hostile towards neighboring tribes and settlers, and any intrusions into their lands were immediately repelled. Prior to the mid-18th century they moved to the Northern Great Plains area, acquired horses from southern tribes, and developed a nomadic Plains culture, largely dependent on the buffalo, their only cultivated crop being tobacco, which was grown for ceremonial purposes.\nWith the early coming of settlers, the Blackfoot gained wealth from the sale of beaver pelts, however the killing off of the buffalo and the near exhaustion of fur stocks brought them to the edge of starvation.\nToday the Blackfoot are chiefly ranchers and farmers living on reservations in Montana and Alberta. They continue the rich traditions that earlier marked their religion.\nIn 1990 there were 38,000 Blackfoot in the United States and over 11,000 in Canada.",

        "raw_content": "Whether you're hiring a home health care provider for a family member who needs a helping hand or you've reached the point that you can benefit from this form of professional service, it's important to ensure that you've hired the right person. While it's valuable to go through the hiring process carefully to pick who you feel is the best candidate, evaluating the health care provider once he or she begins working is also necessary. Ideally, you'll be seeing these signs that suggest you've found the right person to provide this important type of care.\nThe Provider Makes A Personal Connection\nAlthough the home health care provider is there to ensure that the patient doesn't fall, takes his or her medication, and performs other such duties, it's ideal if the provider and the patient form a friendly bond. The best health aides are those who make a personal connection with the patient, taking the time to truly get to know those with whom they work. Whether you're evaluating your care provider or someone you've hired for a family member, check to see how strong this personal connection is. You want to see and hear an easy rapport between the two people and signs that the provider is adjusting his or her approach based on making the patient comfortable.\nThere's Just The Right Amount Of Care\nSome people struggle with the process of receiving in-home care because they're still wanting to regain a certain degree of independence. After several years of independent living, it can be a challenge to transition into receiving care in the home. The best home health care providers give just the right amount of care. They're there when they're needed, but they don't hover and they still allow the patient to retain some independence. This shows that they've come to know the patient and can allow him or her to keep some degree of independence.\nThe Provider Keeps Meticulous Records\nIn all areas of healthcare, keeping records is vitally important. The home health care provider needs to show signs of keeping meticulous records; he or she may have several different patients at the same time, and keeping records is a way to keep the patients' needs clear. For example, look for indicators such as taking notes throughout the day, including noting the time of each medication that is administered. You can feel confident with a health aide who always makes record-keeping a priority.\nFor home healthcare providers, contact an organization such as United Senior Services home health care providers.",

Press spacebar to start the game.\nCosmic Defender Iron Mike's Punch Out Tetris Xevious Tapper Asteroids Moon Patrol\nQix Walkthrough\nQix is an arcade game that was developed and published by Taito. It was first released in arcades in 1981. Qix spawned numerous ports for home systems such as the Atari 5200, Commodore 64, and the NES. The gameplay mechanics of this classic game were also featured in numerous games, including a minigame in Bully, by Rockstar Games. This Flash port of Qix has identical gameplay, sounds, and graphics compared to the classic arcade game.\nThe objective of Qix is to fence off a majority of the playing field. The arcade version of this classic game allowed the arcade owner to adjust the amount of the field that had to be claimed in order to advance to the next level, but this Flash port of the classic game requires you to claim the default value of seventy-five percent of the field. In order to accomplish your goal, you must connect lines (referred to as \"stix\") to form boxes. Blue lines are drawn faster than red lines, but red lines reward double the score when a box is drawn using them.\nThere is no time limit in Qix, but there are hazards that must be avoided. You start with three lives, and if your marker touches a hazard, you will lose one life. When all lives are lost, the game is over. The first hazard is the namesake of the game, the Qix. Qixes move gracefully across the screen in an erratic pattern. If your marker or an uncompleted line touches a Qix, you will lose a life. The second way to lose a life in this arcade game is if your marker touches a fuse. Fuses appear when you stop moving the marker when drawing a line. Moving the marker will cause the fuse to disappear. Sparx are the final type of hazard featured in this classic game. Sparx move along the edges of the playing field. The timer bar at the top of the screen indicates the time left before more Sparx are added. There is no way to defeat these enemies, so they must be avoided by skillful maneuvering.\nLike many arcade games of its time, Qix is simple but highly addictive. Now you can relive this classic game without spending a single quarter or searching for an emulator!\nSpy Hunter is a classic arcade game that was developed and published by Bally Midway.

Chapman, that is currently pending in the Supreme Court on a motion for discretionary review.\nThe decision whether to enforce the witness rule lies within the sound discretion of the trial court, but a party seeking an exception to the rule for an expert should be prepared to make a showing how the expert\u2019s presence would be beneficial (if not essential).",

        "raw_content": "After collecting and analysing data from hundreds of professional journalists working in Ireland, HuJo is releasing a comprehensive report on Irish Journalists\u2019 use of Social Media. This is the first survey of such undertaken in Ireland and is being launch on the 7th January 2015 at the \u201cCitizen Journalism and Social Media Archiving\u201d minitrack of the 48ht Hawaii International Conference on Social Sciences (HICSS 48). HICSS is #1 Infirmation Science conference in terms of citations according to Google Scholar. Dr. Bahareh Heravi and Dr. Natalie Harrower, two of the authors of the survey report, co-chair the minitrack on \u201cCitizen Journalism and Social Media Archiving\u201d.\nThe survey was open to all professional journalists working in Ireland, and was distributed widely to attract the broadest possible set of responses. The survey poses a wide variety of questions to journalists, in an effort to reveal how journalists integrate social media into their workflows, how they perceive the information they find through social media, and what steps they take to investigate a social media sources\u2019 validity.\nOverall, the survey reveals that Irish journalists have integrated social media into their journalistic practices quite heavily: 99% of Irish journalists use social media, with half of those using it daily. It further reveals that while the the most common use for social media between Irish Journalists is sourcing. On a daily basis 58% of Irish Journalists use social media for finding news leads and 49% use it for sourcing content. Despite the wide use of social media by Irish journalists, a considerable number of them have concerns over veracity of information on social media and believe that without external verification, the information from social media cannot be trusted. Very few journalists use specialist tools to validate information, instead relying on the practice of contacting individuals directly.\nThe survey report provides detailed nformation on the ways Irish journalists use social media and compare their use in various aspects, and on various factors. You can download this comprehensive report to find much more interesting information on details of how Irish journalists use social media.\nDownload the Irish Social Journalism report\nPosted in: Data Journalism \u00b7 Digital Journalism \u00b7 Future of Journalism \u00b7 Future of News \u00b7 Social Journalism \u00b7 Social Media\nPeter Feeney says:\nI would like to congratulate the team on this very worthwhile initiative.

        "raw_content": "October 2nd, Respect life Sunday\nWhile recognizing the intrinsic evil of abortion, that is of each and every abortion in any and all circumstances, there is serious difficulty in discerning how to bring a nation from a pro-abortion stance to becoming pro-life. In particular, some generally pro-life politicians (in various nations, including the USA) have agreed to vote in favor of certain legislative bills which are pro-abortion in cases of rape and incest. These pro-life politicians justify voting in favor of the pro-abortion bills by claiming that the bill (though still pro-abortion) restricts abortion and begins to move the nation gradually to a pro-life stance.\nIndeed, there are some politicians who, while stating that they are pro-life and are against all abortions, nevertheless also state that they will pass legislation which (while restricting abortion overall) allows for abortion in cases of rape and incest.\nCan a good politician vote for such a bill or hold such a stance? Can a pro-life politician vote in favor of allowing abortions only in extreme cases (e.g. rape or incest)?\nAbortion is always wrong\nThe Catholic Church teaches, and we can discover simply from reason alone, that abortion is always always wrong. There is never a case in which it is permissible to directly and intentionally kill an unborn child.\nEven in cases of rape or incest, abortion is wrong \u2013 it does no good to commit another sin (abortion) in order to balance out the first sin (rape). The child is innocent and should not be punished for the sins of others: Children shall not die for the sins of their parents and parents shall not die for the sins of their children.\nPoliticians are obligated to be pro-life\nFurther, because of the gravity of abortion and especially because of the grave harm it does to society in general, politicians are obligated to be pro-life. Politicians are obliged to use their power to defend the innocent and the defenseless \u2013 the unborn children are at the top of the list.\nIf a politician does not defend the unborn, nothing else he does (in regard to human relations) will matter. After the commandments regarding God (which, properly understood, may include also the fourth commandment of honoring father and mother), the fifth commandment against murder is the most important to uphold.\nIf a politician does not defend the right to life, then every other right is lost as well. With the exception of a politician who actively persecutes the Church and seeks to destroy the Gospel of Christ, there is no worse politician than one who is pro-abortion.\nThe question of \u201cpro-life\u201d bills which allow for limited cases of abortion\nStill, there are many pro-life politicians who feel constrained to vote in favor of certain bills which would have the over-all effect of limiting abortions, while at the same time maintaining the legality of abortion in the case of rape or incest. Let us be clear, such bills are (technically) pro-abortion; even though they have a good goal of limiting abortions over all, these bills maintain the \u201cright\u201d of abortion in certain cases.\nCan a politician consider himself to be \u201cpro-life\u201d, if he votes in favor of such a bill? Is there room for a momentary and partial compromise in order to get something passed which will at least be a little bit less pro-abortion than the current policies?\nWe look to Evangelium vitae, the encyclical on life from Bl. John Paul II: \u201cA particular problem of conscience can arise in cases where a legislative vote would be decisive for the passage of a more restrictive law, aimed at limiting the number of authorized abortions, in place of a more permissive law already passed or ready to be voted on. Such cases are not infrequent. It is a fact that while in some parts of the world there continue to be campaigns to introduce laws favouring abortion, often supported by powerful international organizations, in other nations-particularly those which have already experienced the bitter fruits of such permissive legislation-there are growing signs of a rethinking in this matter. In a case like the one just mentioned, when it is not possible to overturn or completely abrogate a pro-abortion law, an elected official, whose absolute personal opposition to procured abortion was well known, could licitly support proposals aimed at limiting the harm done by such a law and at lessening its negative consequences at the level of general opinion and public morality. This does not in fact represent an illicit cooperation with an unjust law, but rather a legitimate and proper attempt to limit its evil aspects.\u201d (n.73)\nCircumstances in which a pro-life politician can vote pro-abortion\n1) The pro-abortion law must be less pro-abortion than the current status quo. It must constitute a move toward a pro-life stance.\n2) It must be impossible (or at least very nearly impossible) to overturn completely the current pro-abortion law.\n3) The politician must be unquestionably pro-life, and this must be publicly known.\n4) The politician must have the intention of using this less pro-abortion law as a step toward ultimately eradicating abortion all together.\nIt seems to me, as one who admittedly knows very little about politics and has almost no political views, that President George W. Bush could fit this category. It was well known that he was personally against abortion and wanted to see it completely removed from society. Yet, as a politician, he was not willing to push for legislation which would make abortion illegal in all cases \u2013 rather (as I understand it), he allowed for exceptions in cases of rape. Still, it seems that even this pro-abortion stance was taken as a means of compromise so as to get at least some progress in the pro-life cause.\nWhat is very clearly not acceptable, however, is the stance of those who claim to be working against abortion but who do nothing in practice to pass pro-life (or at least less pro-abortion) legislation. It is not permissible to vote pro-abortion when there is a viable pro-life option (or when there is a less pro-abortion option). Neither can a politician claim to be working against abortion simply by attempting to increase the standard of living for the lower classes while at the same time voting pro-abortion.\nThe only licit way in which a politician may vote for a pro-abortion law, is if that law is less pro-abortion than the current status quo and if that politician can find no other feasible means of limiting abortions. In such cases, it would be permissible for a pro-life politician to vote in favor of a bill which permits abortion in certain restricted cases (e.g. rape) while limiting the availability of abortion over all.",

        "raw_content": "Christie scoffs, but here\u2019s why NJ\u2019s credit downgrades might matter to you\nRalph Albert Thomas, CEO and executive director of the New Jersey Society of CPAs. (Michael Symons/Townsquare Media NJ)\nGov. Chris Christie grumbles that too much attention is paid by reporters to Wall Street analysts repeatedly lowering their assessment of the state\u2019s credit worthiness.\n\u201cEvery economic story starts with 11 credit downgrades as if that means a thing to people in terms of their everyday life,\u201d Christie said at a recent news conference.\nBut it really does matter, said Ralph Albert Thomas, chief executive officer and executive director of the New Jersey Society of CPAs. Its members work with and advise thousands of businesses, and its most recent survey shows the state\u2019s credit is the CPAs\u2019 top public policy concern.\n\u201cWhen clients are looking to make a decision whether they\u2019re going to invest in expanding their business, they\u2019re going to look to their CPA and get his or her opinion on that,\u201d Thomas said. \u201cAnd so for them to have that kind of concern, what that would translate to potentially is a caution for them in terms of suggesting to them that they may want to invest or expand their business here.\u201d\nNew Jersey\u2019s credit rating is currently the second-lowest among the 50 states, having been downgraded three or four notches by each of the three major rating agencies since 2011. Beyond just making it a bit more expensive for the state to borrow money, businesses wonder if the state will be a reliable, stable partner, Thomas said.\n\u201cCompanies are concerned when they come here because if you\u2019re having downgrades, it costs the state more to do what it does,\u201d Thomas said.\nNo matter who becomes governor, accountants worried about NJ economy\n\u201cWhen organizations or companies think about whether they want to relocate here, or even invest here, they pause and ask themselves if the state isn\u2019t going to be able to make its investment in the infrastructure and things of that nature, why should we invest?\u201d he said.\nTo address the state\u2019s pension debt, last month the state committed to put 30 years of lottery profits into the retirement funds, but that hasn\u2019t prompted Wall Street analysts to upgrade their outlook for New Jersey\u2019s finances.\nThomas was surprised the state\u2019s finances and credit ranked as CPAs\u2019 top public policy concern, ahead of things such as taxes and health care.\n\u201cTypically they weigh in on tax issues and things of that nature, so that was kind of revealing for us that they felt that was a big, big issue that had an impact on New Jersey\u2019s business economy,\u201d said Thomas.\nMichael Symons is State House bureau chief for New Jersey 101.5 and the editor of New Jersey: Decoded.

        "raw_content": "The death of American Christianity.\nEvangelicalism ceased being a religious faith tradition following Jesus\u2019 teachings concerning justice for the betterment of humanity when it made a Faustian bargain for the sake of political influence. The beauty of the gospel message \u2014 of love, of peace and of fraternity \u2014 has been murdered by the ambitions of Trumpish flimflammers who have sold their souls for expediency. No greater proof is needed of the death of Christianity than the rush to defend a child molester in order to maintain a majority in the U.S. Senate.\nEvangelicalism has ceased to be a faith perspective rooted on Jesus the Christ and has become a political movement whose beliefs repudiate all Jesus advocated.\nhttps://baptistnews.com/article/death-christianity-u-s/#.WhcmP1WWaUk\nBugger....I was hoping nobody would start with that one.\nLooks like you need some new material. There's plenty out there, like the idiot in The Whitehouse demanding that the whole nation thank him for pardoning a turkey, his greatest achievement in a year in office.\nDavid...don't you think that we are all a little bored about the Mango. The world now knows what he is like and he is being contained by both the Senate, congress and the military. He is no longer news worthy and the US will just have to live with him a little longer. He is no longer amusing. just embarrassing and does not represent the the thinking of the majority of US citizens.....even those who who voted for him.\nThe Sanford Twins are out early. Pair trolling.\nEven the article you quote is incorrect.\nThe whole purpose of Jesus, His ministry, death and resurrection was about reconciling sinful humans with God, and providing a way of salvation.\nBetterment of humanity is as much doublespeak as any other liberal misinterpretation of the Gospel.\nPrimarily I think that this occurs because it is uncomfortable for most people to consider that their spiritual situation may be a lot worse than their self deceiving justifications have allowed them to believe.\nThe Gospel was never meant to be a comfotable religious message - if that is all it is then it is a lie and not worth the light of day.\nHowever if it is true, then those who read the Gospel will either accept its truth and receive salvation or they will be offended by it and spurn its message.\nDiluting it down to empty platitudes is an insult to the sacrifice Jesus made.\nIf you read his Words recorded in Revelation: I wish you were hot or cold. But because you are lukewarm I will spew you out of my mouth.\nSo I say, accept the Gospel as it is or reject it. Just don't mutilate it beyond recognition and lie to yourself.\nJimmie ... I commend your post ... and this from me who if pressed would have to self identify as an Agnostic with Anglican, Catholic, Baptist and Salvation Army tendencies.\nOf course it is, as everyone knows an anonymous internet troll always knows more than a professor at a theological college who has an earned Masters in Divinity. Yet even with all your rhetorical skills you are incapable of addressing a single point in his article.\nYes, of course, when Jesus said \"suffer the little children to come unto me\" he was propositioning them for sex. Is that the correct interpretation? It certainly seems to be the one that Roy Moore's supporters are using.\nIf you read his Words recorded in Revelation:\nThere are no words of Jesus in \"Revelation\". It is fan fiction, not a recording of anything that happened.\nSo I say, accept the Gospel as it is or reject it.\nRejected it a long time ago as it is full of errors, logical inconsistencies, and myths. Its only use has been as a justification of some of the most horrendous evils perpetrated on some humans by others. It has been used to justify slavery, misogyny, war, rape, dispossession and destruction of natives by colonists, paedophilia, and all the other stuff Christians conveniently try to blame on Satan.\nDavid - your Master of Divinity would have right at home sitting on the bench of the Spanish Inquisition. None of this inconvenient nonsense about innocent until proven guilty.\nI'll take the opinion of Jimmy long before that of a deranged fundamentalist Trump hater - just like you.\nNever were good at comprehension, were you Lawn Mower Man? The chap with the Masters in Divinity is not me, rather the author of the article I quoted above. Do try to keep up, old chap.\nNone of this inconvenient nonsense about innocent until proven guilty.\nYou mean like your continual howls of BENGHAZI, your screeching EMAILS, your jabbering PIZZAGATE, your whining about a BIRTH CERTIFICATE, and your relentless lies about anything and everything to do with Trump.\nMaybe you could take a little time out of your lawn mowing to actually read the article I quoted and then attempt to refute the author.\nThe gods/god are man's invention. From the earliest of times it was realised that those who had \"powers\" or could communicate with nature become wealthy and respected in the tribe. It was a short step to orginised religion with Shamans, priests etc consolidating their position with rules and diktats along with the power to cast the unbelievers (competing beliefs) into outer darkness. Religions morphed and changed with the political circumstances. Christianity got it's boost when the Roman empire that was on it's knees took it on as the people were pissed off that the old gods had let them down and the emperor decided that it would be politically convenient to convert.\nMan's inhumanity to man in the name of religion is boundless and the sky fairies name should not be invoked in parliament or anywhere else...it is a manufactured myth.\nIf you have any doubts how today's religion was cobbled together by a bunch political schemers in frocks who wrote the rules which are far from divine and responsible for the human misery on a vast scale........ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea",

The 10-year yield held steady mid-week following the release of better-than-expected consumer confidence data.\n\"We start the week with bonds under pressure again,\" stated Kevin Giddis, Head of Fixed Income Capital Markets at Raymond James. \"While the pace of the rise in yield in the short end of the yield curve isn't that surprising since the Fed's bias remains to tighten, what is more surprising is how quickly the yield on the 10-year note has shot up. It is almost as if the anticipation of inflation has been replaced with the certainty of it.\"\nOn Wednesday, the Fed released its monetary policy statement at the conclusion of the latest FOMC meeting. The statement predicts that inflation will rise and stabilize around the 2% target, while leaving interest rates unchanged. After the statement was released, the 10-year Treasury note yield increased to 2.75%.\n\"The changes to the [FOMC policy] statement were fairly modest, but the markets didn't really need much further encouragement,\" said Michael Pearce, Senior U.S. Economist at Capital Economics. \"Fed funds futures have risen almost continuously since last September and, at this stage, a March rate increase is pretty much fully priced in.\"\nOn Friday morning, the U.S. Labor Department released its jobs report for the month of January. The report detailed 200,000 jobs were added with unemployment remaining steady for the fourth consecutive month at 4.1%. Economists had predicted 180,000 jobs would be added. Following the strong economic data, Treasury yields were up with the 10-year yield reaching 2.84%.\nThe 10-year Treasury note yield finished the week of 1/29 at 2.85%, while the 30-year Treasury note yield was 3.10%.\nFreddie Mac released its latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS) on Thursday, February 1. The report revealed the 15 and 30-year fixed mortgage rates moved higher than last week's averages.\nThe 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 4.22% this week. This is an increase from last week when it averaged 4.15%. Last year at this time, the 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 4.19%.\nThis week, the 15-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 3.68%. This was higher than last week's average of 3.62%. The 15-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 3.41% one year ago.\n\"The 30-year fixed rate mortgage is up over a quarter of a percentage point (27 basis points) from the first week of the year,\" said Len Kiefer, Deputy Chief Economist at Freddie Mac. \"30-year fixed mortgage rates have increased for four consecutive weeks and are now slightly above where they were last year at this time.\"\nBased on published national averages, the money market account finished the week of 1/29 at 0.83%. The 1-year CD finished at 1.84%.",

        "raw_content": "To qualify for Finals, the 25 competing teams first had to win their regional competitions. In total, approximately 392 teams (made up of 1,960 students representing 33 states) participated, adding to the more than 30,000 students who have passed through the ocean sciences competition over the last 20 years. A full list of the 2017 NOSB Finals participants is available here.\nAt both the regional and national levels, the NOSB consists of buzzer-style, multiple choice questions and longer, critical thinking-based team challenge questions. The Finals also includes the Scientific Expert Briefing (SEB), a mock congressional hearing where students present science recommendations on a piece of legislation, enhancing the critical thinking elements of the competition and focusing on real-world skills. This year\u2019s theme was Blue Energy: Powering the Planet With Our Ocean. The use of marine renewable energy (generated from the continuous movement of surface winds, tides, and currents, as well as differences in salinity and temperature) will reduce greenhouse gas emissions, keeping our ocean healthy and productive as it helps meet the world\u2019s growing energy demand.\nThe top eight teams at the Finals Competition were:\n1st Place \u2013 Santa Monica High School (Santa Monica, California)\n2nd Place \u2013 Marshfield High School (Marshfield, Wisconsin)\n3rd Place \u2013 North Carolina School of Science and Math (Durham, North Carolina)\n4th Place \u2013 Centerville High School (Dayton, Ohio)\n5th Place \u2013 Bishop Sullivan Catholic High (Virginia Beach, Virginia)\n6th Place \u2013 Eastside High School (Gainesville, Florida)\n7th Place \u2013 Liberty Common High School (Fort Collins, Colorado)\n8th Place \u2013 Oxford High School (Oxford, Mississippi)\nStudents competed for several additional awards during Finals. The NOSB places an emphasis on sportsmanship, awarding Kalani High School (Honolulu, Hawaii) the James D. Watkins Sportsmanship Award. Additionally, participants are scored separately on their performance in the SEB. Montgomery Blair High School (Silver Spring, Maryland) won this portion of the competition, Bishop Sullivan Catholic High School (Virginia Beach, Virginia) took home second, and North Carolina School of Science and Math (Durham, North Carolina) came in third.\n\u201cThis was an amazing way to celebrate our 20th anniversary,\u201d said RADM Jon White, President and CEO of the Consortium for Ocean Leadership. \u201cI\u2019m extremely impressed by the knowledge, sportsmanship, and enthusiasm for ocean science displayed by all of the teams. I look forward to the next 20 years \u2013 both watching how the NOSB will grow and develop, as well as seeing the innovative accomplishments of today\u2019s students, who are tomorrow\u2019s leaders.\u201d\n\u201cYou can\u2019t help but walk away from this competition feeling inspired and hopeful for the future,\u201d added Kristen Yarincik, NOSB Program Director. \u201cThe students put in countless hours, on top of their regular school requirements, and we got to see that all come to fruition this weekend. But they aren\u2019t the only ones putting in long hours. We have hundreds of volunteers\u2014including our hosts at OSU\u2014who, combined, have dedicated thousands of hours as judges, moderators, question writers, timers, and scorers to make this event possible.\u201d\nThe first and second place teams received all-expenses paid trips to coastal states, Georgia/South Carolina and New Jersey, respectively, to join local experts in conducting scientific research. The third place team received H20 Ninja snorkel masks, and the other top teams received Amazon gift cards to purchase marine science textbooks. The James D. Watkins Sportsmanship prize-winning team received a gift card as well as the same buzzer system used in the competition.\nStudents enjoyed several hands-on science activities over the weekend, including a beach cleanup with Surfrider Foundation, a tour of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Marine Operations Center \u2013 Pacific, a trip aboard the OSU Research Vessel Pacific Storm, a clamming adventure with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, and a tour of OSU\u2019s OH Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory.\nThe 2017 national NOSB program is made possible through the following major sponsors:\nSchwab Charitable Fund made possible by the generosity of Wendy and Eric Schmidt\nDeerbrook Charitable Trust\nPrince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.\nA complete list of sponsors can be found here.\nTo read more about the NOSB, click here.",

So-called polluting industries and their employees have donated more than $335,000 to DeWine since 2010, according to data from the National Institute on Money in State Politics.\nDoes this put Ohio\u2019s attorney general in the pocket of polluting industries?\nThe liberal group Americans United for Change says yes.\n\u2026Americans United say all that money, and the level of familiarity and information being exchanged, went beyond what was required for the attorney general to do his job.\n\u2018When an attorney general chooses to serve as part of dirty energy\u2019s unofficial defense team, who is left looking out for the public interests?\u2019 said Americans United president Brad Woodhouse. \u2018If you\u2019re a public servant like DeWine and find yourself delivering \u2018closed press\u2019 speeches at Coal Association events while standing in the way of a plan that will save thousands of lives and leave millions of Americans less susceptible to air-pollution related illnesses like lung cancer to asthma attacks in children, maybe it\u2019s time to consider a clean break from your dirty energy friends.'\u201d\n\u2014 Stephen Koff, Cleveland Plain Dealer",

        "raw_content": "Houdini also held a patent for a style of diving suit. The innovation was granted U.S. Patent Number 1,370,316 on March 1, 1921. The object of Houdini\u2019s diving suit was to allow a diver to get out of the suit while submerged. This helped the diver swiftly and safely escape and reach the surface of the water. It also allowed a diver to don his suit without assistance. This was accomplished by being formed in two halves, with a locking joint in the middle. The diver could reach this joint and release it, and then escape from the suit.\nWhen America went to war, Houdini was too old to join the army so he helped the war efforts in other ways. Besides selling war bonds and supporting the Red Cross, Houdini taught classes to soldiers on how to escape from German handcuffs and jails. The diving suit was also another way for Houdini to support US troops. The invention was in response to concerns from the Navy that a diver couldn\u2019t escape from his suit and perform a free accession if he had problems with his air compressor, had a flooded hood or became entangled and because of this soldiers were losing their lives. Unfortunately, the idea never became popular due to an increased risk of a flooded suit.\nA Moment in History, Famous Inventions, Harry Houdini, Magician, Patent History\n\u2190 Famous Women Inventors: Bette Nesmith Graham \u2013 Inventor of Liquid Paper\nFamous Women Inventors: Josephine Cochran \u2013 Dishwasher Patent \u2192",

Because of our pioneering work in computer-to-plate technology, we were invited to participate as a presenter in a panel discussion at Seybold/Boston.\nOur success in managing Nortel\u2019s documentation needs earned us the distinction of \u201cNortel Supplier of the Year.\u201d\nContinuing to focus on technological innovation, we were the first printer in Northern California to acquire the new 6-color Heidelberg CD74, which offers not only legendary Heidelberg performance, but also the latest in digital workflow and color control using pixel-based spectrophotometry.

        "raw_content": "A03: Early Civilisations\nThe earliest practical marker in the history of civilisations is the end of the last Ice Age, which we shall assume as being about 10,000 BC. Afro-Eurasian civilisation appeared in the Middle East around this time, associated with the fertile lands adjacent to the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, the region called Mesopotamia. Traditionalists say that it was from here that the techniques and practices of agriculture spread out, with profound consequences for mankind. The earliest farming practices were taking place by about 6,500 BC, though the horse was domesticated around 4,400 BC in the steppes of Eurasia, and the wheel and plough did not appear until around 3,500 BC in Mesopotamia. Use of sails for sea-borne craft was possibly invented in Egypt around the same time. The period from 10,000 to about 3,000 BC and is called Neolithic, or New Stone Age.\nA significant key to the development of civilisation was the use of metals, skills that took millennia to develop. The first experiments with copper took place in Anatolia from around 7,000 BC and by 5,000 BC gold and copper objects were being manufactured in the Balkans. The earliest bronze casts were made around 4,000 BC in Asia Minor and it took at least another thousand years before the spread of the technology was significant enough for us to define the Bronze Age.\nThe true secret of the Bronze Age achievement was efficient agriculture that created a surplus of food over the basic needs of the farmers. This was the beginning of \u2018growth\u2019 that drives economic development today. Some of this extra food could then be exchanged for specialised skills and crafts such as pottery and tool making. Rather than living just for themselves and their immediate families, people were able to live in communities, helping and becoming more dependent upon each other. Denser populations became possible and people concentrated around centres of trade, a royal court or a temple. These concentrations were embryo cities that increased the intensity and variety of communication, and the exchange of ideas stimulated further invention.\nIn the Western Civilisation, the first recognised Bronze Age Society was that of the Sumer in Mesopotamia between about 3,500 and 3,000 BC. This early progress in metallurgy allowed improvements to methods of irrigation and shipbuilding and hence to better agriculture and transportation. [15]. Two other centres of civilisation developed about the same time in the valleys of the Indus in northwest India and the Nile in Egypt. Whether these civilisations were in contact or not is uncertain. Modern consensus has it that they probably were.\nRecent research [2] has raised the possibility of an entirely new version of the history following the retreat of the ice sheets of the northern hemisphere. Evidence is produced for an earlier highly developed civilisation in the lands of Egypt around at least 9,000 BC, a date that is now ascribed to the building of the Sphinx. This civilisation is thought to have been expert in astronavigation, which itself implies long experience and knowledge of sea travel. It is proposed [2] that this as yet unidentified civilisation spread around the world, giving rise to the Aztec and Inca civilisations of South America and the civilisation responsible for the building of the fabulous temples of Angkor Wat in Cambodia. It could be that the spread was even wider and it may be linked to the theories of Heyerdahl [22] proposed from the late 1940s onwards. During the course of his earliest expeditions, Heyerdahl demonstrated how the population of the remote Pacific islands occurred when emigrants escaping the punitive culture of the Aztecs set off from South America on rafts around 600 AD and were carried there by wind and tide. He later showed how, similarly, it was possible for emigrants from North Africa to achieve similar epic journeys across the Atlantic Ocean on rafts constructed from papyrus reed materials. The logical projection of this thesis formed by other writers is that this emigration resulted in the creation of the Aztec and Inca civilisations of South America and would have taken place much earlier, although precisely when is speculative.\nThe melting of the vast northern ice sheets around 10,000 BC created an increase in sea level that, in turn, had serious impact on civilisations. This global increase in sea level was followed many millennia later by other smaller changes to sea level, notably a fall of about 1 m in the Mediterranean during the lifetime of the city of Troy (see below). The cultures inhabiting the lands of northwestern India saw their coastal-based cities submerged beneath the encroaching sea of the post Ice Age era. Their lands were vastly reduced in size; in some cases their cultures may not have survived at all. Indeed, recent underwater research has shown much evidence of early civilisations occupying what was then coastal land, but became submerged by the rise in sea level at a number of other sites in India. The Mediterranean too was affected, and islands such as Sicily and Malta also show evidence of peoples with well-developed cultures living on land that is now below sea level. This theory lends far more credibility to the famous story about the lost civilisation of Atlantis, for it is likely that the rise in level of the Atlantic Ocean also submerged areas of land off the coast of West Africa in the region of the Canaries or the Azores. These theories are still very new and little more can be added at this point, especially in regard to the role of navigation amongst these peoples. We can say that these ancient peoples must have lived in the Early Stone Age, and because of the limitations to shipbuilding without the benefit of metal tools and nails it is very unlikely that there was sufficient activity on the sea to warrant the construction of lightstructures.\nWe are thus inclined to focus our attention on the period from 3,000 BC onwards - the beginning of the Bronze Age when metallic tools became available. To investigate matters further we need to consider aspects of the history of some better-known early cultures. The obvious candidates to investigate are the Egyptians, the Romans, the Phoenicians and the Greeks.",

        "raw_content": "Pioneer Editor July 3, 2017 Featured Slider, FeaturedContent, Features, Frontpage News, Latest Print\nTwenty-one year old Jenifer Tovar believes there are some good police \u2014 but she\u2019s just not sure where they work.\nTwo years ago Tovar, an Oklahoma City resident, was stopped for speeding by the Oklahoma City police. Before she knew what was happening, Tovar \u2014 traveling with several children \u2014 said the police officer removed her from her car, placed her in handcuffs and was told to be quiet. Her car was impounded.\nTovar said the officer didn\u2019t allow her to talk after he removed her from her car.\n\u201cI tried asking him why is he was arresting me, he told me to just stay quiet, I also had kids, and other people in my car,\u201d she said. \u201cHe wouldn\u2019t let me talk to them.\u201d\nShe said the police officer placed her in the back of his squad car during what was supposed to be a routine traffic stop.\n\u201cSome of us think [the police] have more power than us, and that\u2019s why all this shooting of innocent people is happening,\u201d she said.\nTovar isn\u2019t alone. Across the state and the country many people of color say they are stopped, handcuffed and arrested for simply being different.\nJason Williams, a criminal defense attorney, says that everyone has rights when stopped by the police.\nIn a blog posted on the website of the American Civil Liberties Union, Williams wrote that a driver who is pulled over has the right to remain silent upon questioning, and can refuse a search of their vehicle, though refusing may make police suspicious.\n\u201cKeep in mind, however, that if the police have probable cause to search your car, or if you\u2019ve been placed under arrest, they can search you, and sometimes your vehicle, whether you give your consent or not.\u201d\nIf you are arrested, Williams wrote, the police have to read you your rights. At that point you may ask for an attorney. If the police do not find anything in your car you may ask to leave, but try to stay calm, and be polite.\nTovar said afterwards, the police officer wrote her two tickets: \u201cone for speeding, and another one for not having a seat belt on, when actually I did have it on.\u201d\nAfter the police took her car, Tovar and the children with her had to walk home in the middle of the night.\nThe City of Oklahoma\u2019s public survey showed that in 2016, 68 percent of Oklahomans voted the quality of police services as \u2018satisfactory\u2019.\nTwenty percent of Oklahomans said it needs improvement in the same report.\n\u201cI tell [my son] all the time that if the police stop you, you comply,\u201d Orlando Cruise, a black OCCC student said. \u201cI don\u2019t know what good that will do in regards to what\u2019s happened, but you still comply.\u201d\nCruise said he believes there are more bad police than good police. \u201cI think that if the good ones could expose the bad ones, then the gap between the police dialogue, as far as the community goes, would be better,\u201d he said.\nCruise said the relationship between police and minorities will take time to improve. He worries everyday about his son, who he fears could be killed by police.\nJust last September a black man was shot to death by Tulsa Police Officer Betty Shelby.\nTerrence Crutcher, a 40 year old, had drugs in his car when he was stopped, but complied with Shelby\u2019s demands upon getting out of his car. Tulsa Police Chief Chuck Jordan said in a press conference that the video which showed the shooting was \u201cdisturbing.\u201d\nCrutcher wasn\u2019t the only person killed by police in Tulsa.\n\u201cPerhaps most astonishing is the fact that, in 2016, Tulsa came in at No. 6 on the list of most people killed by police in the entire nation,\u201d KJRH Tulsa reported.\nThe United States Census has recorded that 11,964 black people, 5,900 white people, and 4,172 hispanic people have been killed by police in about thirteen years.\nSo how do police interact with people of color, specifically black people, the highest amount of Americans killed?\nIn a recent study, Stanford University Professors Jennifer Eberhardt and Dan Jurafsky found Oakland Police Officers showed biased rhetoric towards white people.\n\u201cTogether, Eberhardt, Jurafsky and seven other colleagues examined transcripts from 183 hours of body camera footage from 981 stops, which 245 different OPD officers conducted in April 2014,\u201d the study reported.\nThe study found that by using a database rather than an actual person to review the footage would ensure a non biased report.\n\u201cOur findings highlight that, on the whole, police interactions with black community members are more fraught than their interactions with white community members,\u201d Eberhardt told the student newspaper.\nSome say that they don\u2019t have a problem with good police officers, but rather the \u2018bad ones\u2019.\n\u201cI just don\u2019t like police officers that take advantage of their power,\u201d Keshawn Jackson, an OCCC student said. \u201cLike if they don\u2019t have anything to do and say, \u2018let\u2019s just go mess with that guy.\u2019\u201d\nKeshawn said he had two encounters with police where they decided to \u2018stop and frisk\u2019 him.\n\u201cThere was one time I was playing basketball with a couple of people at the park, and a police officer rolled up, and was like \u2018All of you empty your pockets\u2019 just randomly,\u201d he said.\nJackson said there were several races at the park so he thought the cop figured something was happening.\nIn another incident Jackson said whenever he was alone in a convenient store taking awhile to choose what he wanted a police officer came in. \u201cHe walked in and said, \u2018You\u2019re taking too long, come here,\u2019 and I walked towards him,\u201d he said.\nJackson said the officer looked suspiciously at his pocket before removing the item revealing that it was a phone. \u201cHe took it out, and put it back in, you know invading my personal space.\u201d\nJackson\u2019s stories of random \u2018stop and frisk\u2019 procedures aren\u2019t the only ones. Police have used racial profiling to search several people of color for fitting a description.\nThe Kania Law Office in Tulsa said those \u2018stop and frisk\u2019 procedures are often biased.\n\u201cWhile this standing alone is a concern, the potential danger of aggressive stop and frisk policies becomes more apparent when one considers that of the 5 million people subject to a stop and frisk in the large metro area, 3 in 4 were either black or Latino,\u201d Kania said.\n\u201cPolice Officers in general, the ones who actually do their job, you know, help the public those are the ones I do like,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cI\u2019ll talk to them, and respect them because they\u2019re doing their job, trying to keep the peace.\u201d\nOklahoma City Police Relations\nGarrett Elmore, a student at Oklahoma Baptist University, said he feels that the police keep the general population safe.\n\u201cObviously, there have been instances where it doesn\u2019t seem that way with the police where they were doing things that were wrong, and I just feel that that\u2019s a very small percentage of the police population,\u201d he said\nElmore said there are some bad apples in the police force, however he believes the police are doing what they were supposed to do in the community.\nPaco Balderrama, a spokesman for OKCPD, said in Oklahoma City there is a trust factor.\n\u201cYou see a lot of high profile cases here, and a lot of things that happen here turn out much better had they happened somewhere else.\u201d he said. \u201cWe try to stay active on social media to tell people what\u2019s going on, and post videos when it\u2019s necessary. Overall we try to stay transparent.\u201d\nBalderrama said the police department is trying to reach out to the community with programs like the Police Athletic League which \u201cprovides athletic programs, leadership skills training, and service opportunities to the students, and schools involved in [their] programs.\u201d\nOklahoma City is for the most part peaceful Balderrama said. However, police brutality is still a serious issue in Oklahoma and the rest of the United States.\nThe Washington Post\u2019s database for police shootings indicates that 464 people in the United States have been killed by police in 2017.\nThe Washington Post reported that \u201cmental illness played a role a quarter of incidents.\u201d\nAfter the incidents in Tulsa with Crutcher, and others around America, Oklahoma citizens still manage to have hope in the officers that are supposed to protect and serve them.\nFor Tovar, she didn\u2019t mind the speeding ticket. She understood she was speeding, but said the officer could have allowed her to at least ask why she was pulled over.\n\u201cThey just don\u2019t take the time to listen to people,\u201d she said. \u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong though, not every officer is like that either. It\u2019s just hard to trust an officer and people nowadays how things are.\u201d\nTags: abuse black lives matter enforcement law OCCC Pioneer Police Savannah Melher",

We also learn that conventional intensive farming is leading to a surprising nutrional loss in certain foods. And claims that an organic diet can prevent some illnesses.\nWhether you think organic food tastes better is a personal opinion. But there is no doubt that organic growing principles \u2013 feeding the soil not the plant, encouraging wildlife, harnessing nature\u2019s own rhythms to control pests and diseases \u2013 are better not just for you, but for the planet.\nFirst, a little history....\nIn 2009 a report from the US Food Standards Agency, (Dangour et al. 2009) concluded there were no significant differences in nutritional composition between organic and conventional crop and livestock products - apart from a higher nitrogen content in . conventionally produced crops. (Conventional farming uses large quantities of nitrogen based fertilisers.)\nSurprised by this lack of difference, other researchers looked at Dangour's work. They realised his team had looked at only 55 studies - excluding many others because of the terminology around 'organic'. Dangour also accepted studies with mixed breeds, not identical ones. (There can be large differences in nutrient concentrations between different types of the same crop.) So they created a more realistic analysis - and found quite different results. The organic plants alone contained on average 25% higher nutrient concentrations. But chemically produced foods did contain more protein.\nMany years later, and a lot more data, leads us to \u2026\nNewcastle University has revealed that there are significant nutritional differences between organic and conventional foods. They looked at crops, dairy and meat. They reviewed all published data to show conclusively that not only was Dangour wrong, but there are other positive associations between organic food consumption and a reduced risk of certain diseases. Here is a summary of their results:\nOrganic crops and crop-based foods, such as bread, are up to 60% higher in a number of key antioxidants than conventionally-grown crops. These additional antioxidants are the equivalent to eating between 1-2 extra portions of fruit and vegetables a day.\nThere is nearly 50% lower toxic heavy metal cadmium in organic crops \u2013 but no significant difference for other toxic metals such as arsenic and lead.\nNitrogen concentrations were lower than in conventional crops. The debate continues on the adverse effect of a persistently high nitrate (and nitrite) intake, with the proposed link to an increased risk of some cancers.\nConventional fruit has 75% more pesticides traces. Crop based compound foods (such as bread) have 45% more, and vegetables 32%. The worrying 10% of pesticide residue found on organic crops probably results from spray drift.\nSee here for the Nafferton report synopsis, and here for the full paper.\nOrganic milk contains substantially more omega-3 fatty acids. These include nearly 60% more nutritionally desirable, very long chain, omega-3 fatty acids, known as EPA, DPA and DHA.\nThere were also higher levels of polyunsaturated fat (PUFA), conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), vitamin E (a-tocopherol) and iron in organic milk.\nHowever, there were lower levels of selenium and iodine. To address this shortfall in iodine, the UK Organic Milk Suppliers Co-operative has increased iodine fortification in dairy feeds. As of 2016, levels are now on a par with conventional milk.\n\u201cOmega-3s are linked to reductions in cardiovascular disease, improved neurological development and function, and better immune function,\" writes Chris Seal, Professor of Food and Human Nutrition at Newcastle University. \"Western European diets are recognised as being too low in these fatty acids and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends we should double our intake.\"\nWhy does organic dairy produce have more omega 3? The Soil Association say \u201cThis is because organic animals have to eat a more natural grass-based diet containing high levels of clover. Under organic standards, organic cows must eat a 60% fresh grass based diet or hay/silage. Clover is used in organic farming to fix nitrogen so that crops and grass grow (instead of manufactured/chemical fertilisers), and research has found that clover also increases the Omega 3 concentrations in meat and milk.\u201d\nOrganic meat contains 47% more omega-3 fatty acids, and significantly lower concentrations of the undesirable saturated fatty acids.\nIt has significantly higher levels of polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) and omega-6 fatty acids, but lower concentrations of mono-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and a lower omega-6/omega-3 fat ratio.\nAnalysis also detected trends towards higher iron (Fe) levels, and lower concentrations of copper (Cu) and the toxic metal cadmium (Cd).\nProfessor Carlo Leifert, who led the study comments: \"Meat is an important source of omega-3 in our diet, especially for individuals who consume little or no fish. Switching to grass-fed organic meat may allow meat consumption to be reduced by around 30% without a reduction in total omega-3 fatty acid intake.\" See here for the Nafferton report synopsis, and here for the full report.\nIs the organic diet healthier?\nThere is growing evidence that eating organically can help with disease prevention, childhood allergies, obesity, certain cancers and pre-eclampsia in pregnant women. A comprehensive European study, called Human health implications of organic food and organic agriculture lists all the research in this area.\nHowever it notes that \u201c ... It is known that consumers who regularly buy or consume organic food have healthier dietary patterns, such as a higher consumption of fruit, vegetables and wholegrain products and a lower consumption of meat, compared to other consumers. These dietary patterns are associated with various health benefits, which include a reduced risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.\u201d\nHere are some examples of research on organic food and Obesity, Non-Hodkin\u2019s lymphoma, Pre-eclampsia and Childhood allergies: (Alfven, T., et al., Allergic diseases and atopic sensitization in children related to farming and anthroposophic lifestyle--the PARSIFAL study. Allergy, 2006. 61(4): p. 414-421. Kummeling, I., et al., Consumption of organic foods and risk of atopic disease during the first 2 years of life in the Netherlands. Br.J.Nutr., 2008. 99(3): p. 598-605. Rist, L., et al., Influence of organic diet on the amount of conjugated linoleic acids in breast milk of lactating women in the Netherlands.

Fagerstedt, S., et al., Anthroposophic lifestyle is associated with a lower incidence of food allergen sensitization in early childhood. J Allergy Clin.Immunol., 2015.)\nIn all the above cases, however, the evidence is not conclusive, as there are no long-term studies. Furthermore, it is inherently difficult to separate organic food consumption from other associated lifestyle factors that may affect human health.\nWhat about non-organic foods?\nEven if you don\u2019t eat organic foods, are you still getting a healthy and nutrious diet? Two recent research papers, one in the UK and one in Australia, show that psychological well-being increases with the consumption of fruit and vegetables. The optimum effect comes from eating 7 a day.\nHowever, long term research shows a worrying trend in the reduction of vital minerals in non-organic vegetable and fruit crops.\nA comparison of the mineral content of 20 fruits and 20 vegetables grown in a 50 year period, from 1930s - 1980s (published in the UK Government\u2019s Composition of Foods tables) shows several marked reductions in mineral content. The average content of calcium in vegetables, for instance, declined by 46% of the original level. Copper levels are down by 76%, Sodium 49%, Iron 27% and Magnesium 24%,\nQuick note - when cooked vegetables were tested, they were first boiled in distilled water. For broccoli in 1991 it was 15 minutes, while in 1940 it was 45 minutes!\nWe depend on them for energy efficiency, fertility, mental stability and immunity. Calcium, for instance, builds bones and teeth and promotes blood clotting. Copper builds red blood cells and haemoglobin; metabolizes iron, maintains connective tissue and blood vessels and may play a role in cancer prevention. Magnesium helps the muscular and nervous systems to function, as well as the heart and circulatory system.\nSee here for minerals and what they do.\nIn her paper Historical changes in the mineral content of fruits and vegetables, Anne-Marie Mayer argues there are a number of factors which might cause this alarming trend:\nChanges in varieties \u2013 modern farming chooses varieties for high yield, not for nutritional value. Similarly, they choose varieties which are not prone to damage on supermarket shelves.\nIncrease in the use of chemicals for fertilisers, which depletes the symbiosis of the soil and root systems, and can prevent mineral uptake.\nChanges in our food systems \u2013 vegetables and fruits are transported further, and therefore stored for longer\nThe Soil Association have printed a trio of booklets, titled Organic versus Non-organic: Fruit and Veg , Dairy and Meat\nModern farming and the effect on our food\nA discussion on chemical fertilisers, how they are made and used, in this interesting podcast",

        "raw_content": "Assuming that there are ways of aligning the values that infuse various liberal democratic societies, there is still the important question of how to implement them within the diverse institutional arrangements in which they are or will be embedded.1 What regulatory or oversight arrangements would be most suited to their realization?\nIdeally, oversight arrangements within liberal societies will reflect their undergirding values. Oversight mechanisms should gravitate in the direction of structures that exemplify those values. In particular \u2013 and apposite to the concerns of this study \u2013 there will be a determination to ensure social arrangements in which personal accountability is both fostered and maximized.\nHowever, as liberal writers from as far back as John Locke have realized, good social order requires more than reliance on individual good will and good judgment. Structural supports and incentives are needed. As civil society itself exemplifies \u2013 with its legislative, judicial and enforcement structures \u2013 the human condition requires more formalized approaches to social ordering than a laissez faire expectation will be able to deliver. Even so, more formalized approaches can differ significantly in the level of compulsion they involve. Although we noted in Chapter IV of this study the need and our desire to eventually move the US in the direction of creating an independent National Office of Data Protection, we understand that traveling this path is likely to be slow going. Recognizing this reality, our inclination here is therefore first of all to advocate for better development of what we term a \u201csoft-law\u201d approach to accountability. We recommend this tactic in conjunction with the development of appropriate legislation and enforcement mechanisms. Ultimately, in this area as elsewhere, there is a need for an integrated mix of soft law and coercive hard law.2\nA soft-law approach to enhancing oversight can serve as an intermediate mechanism for managing already legislated or regulated surveillance activities where guidance for achieving accountability is vague and where the political will to clarify confusion is not exercised. It can also be useful in cases in which emerging surveillance issues require clarification before hard law is explored and introduced. The recommendations that we make in this chapter focus specifically on increasing accountability in electronic surveillance, profiling and data mining efforts through the utilization of an accountability assessment tool that allows an organization to take stock of its surveillance operations, and through the creation of multi-disciplinary Techno-ethics Boards that could be worked into the process of building and applying surveillance programs.\nSoft law and oversight\nTo date, hard law has served as a less-than-ideal means of achieving accountability in surveillance operations across levels of government in the US and elsewhere. Although such legal tools hold a necessary place among the approaches to monitoring and controlling surveillance operations, even after long and detailed public discussion (resulting in actual laws and codified rules of implementation for techniques such as wiretapping), they have nevertheless sometimes proven ineffective in certain areas of practice. Such failures of foresight have required the employment of effective practical oversight methods so that problems that have emerged can be identified and rectified. As a recent example, we need look no further than the dilemmas that the FBI has encountered with its surveillance activities. Although the USA PATRIOT Act authorized the use of National Security Letters (in effect, administrative subpoenas) by the FBI in investigations of international terrorism and foreign spying,3 a Department of Justice Office of Inspector General (OIG) report indicated that in the earlier part of this decade there had been insufficient monitoring of the implementation of this strategy by its field officers. These findings raised questions of impropriety and illegality in the FBI surveillance activities that had been implemented.4 It was fortunate that this step was taken by the OIG before problems found their way into the court system for settlement through judicial review of administrative operations. It is just this type of occurrence that points out the weaknesses and openings for abuse that can arise between the development of hard law and its resulting implementation. As we have previously noted, another problem that has come to light involving the FBI regards the illegal soliciting of phone records between the years 2002 and 2006.5 A Justice Department OIG report examines these issues in depth.\nIn other situations, developers of hard law can find themselves struggling to offer the insight required to do the job of managing surveillance activities effectively where newer forms of technology are involved. This too can result in problems developing during implementation that will not be rooted out early, and are left to be caught only after they have impacted upon the public. For example, unique expertise that exists among private sector professionals developing technology and innovations within certain fields, such as facial recognition imaging, enables them to operate at such high levels that without commensurate knowledge at their disposal government regulators and elected officials may find themselves challenged to create well-targeted and effective control mechanisms within legislation. Understanding these shortcomings, a more flexible means of ongoing oversight needs to be sought out that can provide stability as the development and eventual implementation of hard law requirements are pursued.\nOne approach to shrinking this gap in effectiveness and accountability is to heighten flexible governmental regulation and oversight activities through the exploration of \u201csoft law\u201d. Discussions of soft law can be considered part of an emerging discourse on the overall value of regulation and governance that in academic circles has recently come to the foreground in a multi-disciplinary fashion.6\n\u201cSoft law\u201d is an inexact term that covers a multitude of quasi-legislative, often non-binding instruments used to enhance government efforts to regulate service delivery areas. These instruments are intended to enable policy changes to emerge and harden through voluntary application and adherence in both confrontational and politicized atmospheres in which a wide array of players from public, private and non-governmental sectors are involved.7 Such tools have been referred to broadly as \u201cunofficial guidelines\u201d that deliver information to those being regulated.8\nSome of the instruments that communicate these ideas include codes of governance, quality standards, letters of advice, handbooks, manuals, reports, declarations, recommendations, guidelines and resolutions, to name a few.9 They can be used to fill gaps between existing legal norms and implementation shortcomings, or to exercise initiative where no legal guidance currently exists. The result is intended to be a collaborative effort at ensuring quality service delivery by all parties involved in the process. Sometimes they can even result in the drafting of enhanced or new binding legal agreements, after a slow process in which policy diffusion is accepted and validated by the players affected.\nIn the case of government surveillance programs that rely on electronic surveillance, profiling or data mining activities, construction and delivery of mutually acceptable soft-law guidelines for their ongoing management and oversight would likely enhance reliability in the eyes of the public. Among the guidelines provided could be agreement to the need for time-driven audits and program evaluations, ongoing development of relevant performance measurement indicators, public reporting expectations on the results of the measurement systems created and the use of Techno-ethics Boards to resolve issues of ethical concern at the same time as developing advice for carrying out surveillance activities from the beginning of operations through to their conclusion. These ideas will be expanded on in later sections of this chapter.\nSoft governance, trust and success\nAlthough a soft law approach to oversight promises to relieve problems and pressures that have surfaced with surveillance programs, there are also quandaries to address well before such programs are productively employed. Quasi-legislative instrumentation of the nature discussed here is voluntarily adhered to and presents an uncertain edict to those on the receiving end. The intent is obvious; the authors of soft law believe that others should follow these \u201csuggestions\u201d and upgrade their operations accordingly. Yet there is no \u201cauthority\u201d determining that action be taken. These are not new laws or regulatory rules that must be followed. They are something else: important enough to be taken note of, but ignored at one\u2019s own professional and personal peril.10 Complicating matters further, soft law often suggests that new implementation norms be followed and attested to through self-reporting by the entities that are charged with providing a particular service. Yet, given that a gap exists between hard law and regulation and implementation in this sensitive policy area, a soft-law approach does offer opportunities to begin the process of deepening oversight.\nThe conundrum noted above frames a central discussion point that needs to be entertained here: how does soft law consistently result in something more than soft, or even abdicated, governance? Even if governance was found lacking before, does this yield a better answer? How can you be sure you have not let the fox guard the henhouse when you are counting on the fox to give you a daily testament to his/her actions? Given this problem, it is important to begin by noting that there are two sides to the coin of soft law.\nThe first side of the coin views the use of such unofficial guidelines as necessary tools for distributing new information to agents perceived as needing to update and improve their services, while still creating room for innovative practices to flourish. This view assumes good faith on the part of those being regulated to honestly address the suggested course of action, or to offer a better path to follow. The other side of the coin is one in which the suggested changes are not implemented due to a lack of comprehension or ability on the part of the receiver, a lack of leverage on the part of the sender or, worst of all, a desire by one or both to engage in fraud, waste or abuse by keeping loopholes open and outside eyes closed.11 Both sides of the coin are relevant parts of the discussion about the implications that these instruments have for practitioners of soft law in complex environments.\nWhen constructed well, the use of soft law to close gaps between hard law and implementation efforts opens doors to programmatic innovation and improvement. In practice it can also serve to increase accountability by mitigating administrative confusion and folly due to imprecise understandings of how to accomplish desired ends. However, it is also true that political stressors and unclear messages from central authorities regarding unofficial guidelines can drag down the potential gains of the process by causing those being regulated to stifle innovation and simply toe the line in order to avoid being cited during inspections and oversight \u2013 even though these are not clear infractions that they will be called on.12 In such a scenario, the process that should lead to an active interchange of ideas between the center and the periphery that results in continuous improvement leads only to a game of follow-the-leader or, worse, resistance. Further still, poorly developed unofficial guidelines that do not provide effective problem resolution can also allow for abuse in application by practitioners.\nWe should be striving to shut off the mains that allow illegal activity to flow forward by crafting useful soft law that also improves results. In the world of surveillance operations such a goal is of great value in and of itself, given the threats to liberty, privacy, and civil rights that hang in the balance. The question that emerges becomes: How can the relationship between those sending the soft forms of guidance and those receiving it be made to work better? Can we ensure transparency, attain accountability, improve effectiveness, prevent misconduct and enable innovation all at once? Can individuals charged with overseeing government surveillance programs help this development along in a front-to-back process? The answer seems to boil down to partnership and how to achieve it.\nIf creative interchange between all parties is what is desired then trust must be created to allow the interchange to flourish. That trust needs to run through the entire process. Trust must exist in the formulation of the quasi-legislative instruments and advice up front, as well as in the oversight process that is created afterward. However, it is hard to create that level of trust when there is resistance to oversight in sensitive areas of national security (e.g. involving surveillance operations, or any other activity).\nCertainly, recent problems between the US CIA and its own OIG, where the former challenged the investigative methods of the latter in politically sensitive reviews, attest to this dilemma.13 Indeed, at this time the agency has successfully managed to create two new positions to oversee the actions of its own internal watchdog!14 Yet oversight and accountability of national security activities must exist, and so the conundrum surrounding trust is laid bare. One undeniable finding from the CIA\u2019s situation so far is that at the very least a lack of trust in oversight operations distracts an organization from accomplishing its mission. Therefore, if government is to function effectively it seems clear that trust needs to be established early on rather than as an afterthought or as the result of a crisis.\nIn unpacking these concerns we first examine weaknesses that complicate the processes of soft law implementation and then note how particular forms of collaborative (rather than adversarial) interaction between oversight entities and those being inspected can improve accountability through enlightened, triangulated oversight. In conjunction with this analytical effort, addressing elements of performance measurement and management that can be used in constructing transparent and accountable partnerships between oversight agents and those being inspected must be further developed. Taken in total, our recommendations represent an attempt to stretch the current discourse on regulating new and existing surveillance operations into less-well-traveled areas of thought. Here we are considering a role for oversight personnel in government surveillance that is essentially counter to the logic of reaction and punishment that often permeate such dialogues, and then offering tools to build trust between these parties and enhance capacity to achieve success. It may be hoped that the framework we lay out here can create room for free thinking and discussion about soft law in regard to better managing the surveillance society of the future.\nSurveillance technology accountability assessment tool\nWhat we initially offer below is a soft accountability assessment tool, designed to encourage those who engage in surveillance, data mining and profiling, to reflect on the nature and consequences of what they are doing. In many respects it particularizes the various means-end questions that we raised at an earlier stage of this discussion, linking those questions specifically to what we can characterize broadly as surveillance technologies.\nThe rationale behind such a tool is that within a liberal society we ought to encourage surveillance strategies that acknowledge, draw upon and foster the dignity of those who use them as well as those who are subject to them. This we do when we implement strategies that encourage individual accountability rather than presume a lack thereof. If these fail, harder strategies should be available to ensure that important liberal values are not left vulnerable and unprotected.\nIn addition, this tool brings focus to the channels by which oversight can be exercised on surveillance programs in order to grow accountability and ensure that reasonable levels of control and scrutiny are met.15 Activities such as improved contracting requirements, audits, inspections, program evaluations and the establishing of ongoing performance measurement and management systems can all aid in this effort. Ingrained within the logic of the \u201cnew public management\u201d is a heavy reliance on these practices to aid in the effective steering of government programs as they navigate the real world flows and barriers that cross the ship of state\u2019s path.16 Bringing these concepts to bear on surveillance programs is both proper and necessary. However, though it is essential to understand the methods for achieving and maintaining accountability, the way in which they are executed is also crucial to their success or failure.\nSome of the modes of oversight noted above can be used upfront in the development of surveillance programs (strict requests for proposal and contracting requirements as well as formative program evaluations), while others can be carried out during the life of surveillance operations (performance and financial audits, interim and summative program evaluations and performance measurement reporting). The problems arise with the willingness and ability to build these activities into the entire lifespan of surveillance programs across levels of government. For instance, it is not at all clear that such oversight activities are legislatively mandated into government surveillance programs, or are expected to happen in regular patterns in all law enforcement and intelligence agencies. In addition, even if such oversight of surveillance operations is taking place, the degree to which there is regular reporting to elected officials and the public no doubt varies. Is such reporting simply desired and left to occur at the will of the agencies and oversight bodies involved, or mandated and handled in a more regimented fashion? It appears that, due to the need for operational secrecy, the former is the case more often than not, and this needs to change. The question is how to create change and enhance accountability without endangering the effectiveness of the surveillance program in question? To this end we offer a tool that will allow for self-assessment in order to begin the process of improvement in oversight and accountability activities. The tool can be used by practitioners of surveillance interested in growing accountability within their organizations, as well as those interested in carrying out oversight of these groups.\nSURVEILLANCE TECHNOLOGY ACCOUNTABILITY ASSESSMENT TOOL*\nWhat external agencies are charged with carrying out oversight of the creation and use of the surveillance technologies you work with?

Nevertheless, it is acknowledged that a culture supportive of such an approach is not easily achieved or sustained, especially in times of apparent crisis. Therefore, various \u201charder\u201d approaches may be required.\nHarder approaches may take various forms. Some may take the form of (a) building (\u201chard-wiring\u201d) appropriate values into the surveillance technologies themselves; (b) imposing various administrative or civil penalties on those who disregard or contravene such values; and, as a last resort, (c) implementing criminal mechanisms in cases in which such values are egregiously flouted.\nFor a culture supportive of oversight and accountability to take root, trust must be ingrained among the parties involved. Trust can be developed in a number of ways at the beginning of operations when advice is crafted and distributed to surveillance practitioners in soft or hard forms. The first way is to utilize the accountability assessment tool provided to ease concerns that issues of oversight are being glossed over or ignored. An additional layer of protection offers the opportunity to bring a variety of parties together early in order to craft mutually agreeable guidance on surveillance operations. Such an approach could accomplish this goal in a number of ways. One is where the public sector defers to nongovernmental parties from the start in the development of said guidelines.17 This is similar to a model of rulemaking that Weimer refers to as \u201cprivate rulemaking\u201d.18 It is important to note that the private rulemaking model is different from the \u201cnegotiated rulemaking\u201d approach, in which external parties engage in the process but do not control it, or the \u201cagency rulemaking\u201d approach, in which experts and advisory boards are invited in only to offer their insight and support.19 Each of these approaches can create buy-in early on that will help to support positive relationships as problems arise in the future. However, neither fully addresses the negative reactions to oversight discussed earlier that follow once guidance is provided. Another level of trust needs to be developed in order to get over this hurdle, and it is incumbent on the personnel charged with such oversight to help facilitate that trust. But how can this goal be achieved when thinking in the world of inspection is colored by expectations of adversarial relationships rather than collaborative ones?\nTechno-ethics Boards: guiding and growing accountability\nOne way to build trust between practitioners and oversight entities involved in responsibly carrying out surveillance operations is to explore the creation of a means of constructive engagement between the parties. However, the form of interaction must include those who would be involved in such a process from front to back. To achieve this purpose we suggest developing Techno-ethics Boards. Akin to Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) in universities, and Bioethics Boards in health settings, Techno-ethics Boards in law enforcement and intelligence settings would be charged with advising surveillance practitioners on how to go about implementing hard law and regulation on these matters. They would also be responsible for addressing ongoing questions of acceptable practice that would evolve as technology (and criminality) changes. However, as opposed to IRBs, they would not have the ability to prevent the implementation of official policies existing in surveillance programs. Due to the need for security and the sensitive nature of information that may need to remain protected even from the board itself, final calls on implementation would still remain with law enforcement and intelligence personnel directly involved with the activity. Hence, the board\u2019s oversight of said surveillance operations would still have limits. Yet this additional layer of scrutiny would no doubt aid in clarifying problems and halting preventable errors through the application of mutually accepted soft governance, built on soft law and soft instrumentation.\nIRBs have been used within universities for decades to protect human and animal subjects from research abuses.20 Although the protections of subjects and procedures for construction of a Techno-ethics Board to provide guidance to government surveillance programs might indeed differ from an IRB, it is a worthwhile enterprise to begin exploring. Could such a body stop abuses from happening in cases in which law enforcement and intelligence efforts are trying to protect national security but go beyond acceptable norms of practice? If so, it is at least worth the effort to take a close look at the possibilities for such boards. Why risk making the error of creating a new type of Stanley Milgram scenario, where both surveillance practitioners and their subjects become victims of overzealous observation efforts, if it can be short-circuited?21\nAs with federally mandated IRBs a Techno-ethics Board would require a spray of appropriate expertise and talent, with a recommended membership of at least five parties.22 The members would include, at a minimum, one lawyer, one ethicist, one technology expert, one oversight expert and one field practitioner. As with IRB appointments, sensitive demographic information would also need to be taken into account in the development of a Techno-ethics Board in order to ensure that a balance of backgrounds is represented.23 All may come from government circles, or none. However, there are complications that come with including non-governmental entities in security driven operations that make for a quandary in this regard. It is more likely that, given the information and the context under which surveillance reviews would take place, personnel would need to be drawn from across differing law enforcement agencies (and perhaps levels of government) more so than from outside parties. However, regardless of who is chosen to serve, the goal would not be to create a confrontational atmosphere but rather a mutually supportive one in which professionals concerned with surveillance and its implications could gather to address real-world implementation issues.\nEvaluating the difficult choices that must be made by governmental entities, in which adherence to protections of civil rights and liberties are traded against the need for protection, is no easy task. Given that matters of security are at stake, parties granted entrance to a given Techno-ethics Board at any level of government should not be chosen without careful consideration. As such, it is important to turn to those who have the levels of clearance necessary to be involved with these matters. One such participant could be found within OIGs. OIGs have already been awarded oversight responsibility at the federal level of surveillance operations in the US through the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Amendments Act of 2008. Considering personnel from these organizations for inclusion within a Techno-ethics Board is therefore no great leap of logic. Now that the OIG concept is found in many countries around the world and operates at many levels of government, OIG members would constitute a good population to explore for the purposes of this discussion.\nBy taking some time to look at the theory that underpins OIGs in the US we can begin to see how one type of inspection and oversight body\u2019s personnel can be deployed constructively and justifiably in a Techno-ethics Board. If welded together carefully with other relevant members, surveillance practitioners can be provided with a feeling of comfort that they remain free to innovate solutions to crime and intelligence problems despite the existence of the board. Further still, they will feel that they have somewhere to go for support and guidance as the inevitable tough decisions arise.\nOffices of Inspector General and Techno-ethics Boards\nOver the last twenty years in the US, OIGs have become common entities on the government oversight landscape. With a growing realization that the costs of corruption and abuse devastate all sectors of society, there has been an increasing reliance on oversight bodies such as OIGs to step up and ensure accountability and transparency. Yet OIGs do not need to be only reactive in their work, seeking out wrongdoers for punishment after infractions have occurred. OIGs can also be proactive and can become engaged in constructive efforts to ensure that processes of change occur smoothly and, in select circumstances, that innovation is encouraged without fear. As such, there is an increasing role for OIGs in facilitating soft governance by engaging in a type of consultative capacity building that can enhance oversight.\nOIGs have a straightforward purpose that is reflected in the US Association of Inspectors General\u2019s (AIG) explanation of its role:\nAccountability is key to maintaining public trust in our democracy. Inspectors general at all levels of government are entrusted with fostering and promoting accountability and integrity in government. While the scope of this oversight varies among Offices of Inspectors General (OIGs), the level of public trust, and hence public expectation, embodied in these offices remains exceptionally high. The public expects OIGs to hold government officials accountable for efficient, cost effective government operations and to prevent, detect, identify, expose and eliminate fraud, waste, corruption, illegal acts and abuse.24\nThe AIG further notes that the qualifications and skills that should exist in these offices include:\nSkills needed to evaluate the efficiency, economy, and effectiveness of program performance within the OIG's area of responsibility . . . and state-of-the-art technical skills as needed such as computer auditing, detection of computer fraud, review of information technology design requirements, statistical sampling and analysis, factor analysis, trend analysis, systems and management analysis, undercover techniques, and covert surveillance.25\nThe language above casts OIGs in a reactive oversight role to those they are overseeing. This role has most recently been seen in the efforts of five federal OIGs to examine the President\u2019s Surveillance Program as required by the FISA Amendments Act of 2008.26 However, the work of OIG staff does not have to be restricted to post-implementation analysis once they become part of a Techno-ethics Board. Where compliance efforts are voluntary to start with, rather than mandated, members of OIGs working on Techno-ethics Boards can take on more of a capacity-building face than they might normally do when they maintain their regular oversight watches. In fact, the skills identified above can be put to use in a multitude of ways so as to build operational understanding as part of a Techno-ethics Board\u2019s abilities. Expertise brought to the table by OIG personnel can enhance adherence to unofficial guidelines upfront, or can at least increase understanding of why such guidelines are being ignored or improved upon by the parties being asked to implement them. Under such a rationale, members of OIGs on Techno-ethics Boards could view themselves as being in position to get ahead of problems, rather than be trapped behind them. The parties being asked to conform to such soft-law advice would feel that they are being worked with, rather than being worked over. This would be especially true if surveillance practitioners were given time to comment on board advice prior to it being finalized and recommended. In addition, OIG personnel would not find themselves totally out of the loop as implementation (or the lack of it) moves forward. Finally, when OIG personnel on Techno-ethics Boards receive the self-reported attestations of those being overseen, they will have a much better understanding of what is being presented in the final documents. The ways in which they would then address issues of non-compliance and enforcement could proceed with greater understanding.27 Similar benefits would likely be gained by all participating members of a Techno-ethics Board.\nIn this chapter of the study we are suggesting that creative soft-law approaches to government surveillance programs can supplement \u2013 and in some cases, obviate the need for \u2013 hard law by successfully addressing and containing abuses of power that occur through negligence, overzealous application or outright abuse. They can also aid in simply containing random error. The utilization of the Surveillance Technology Accountability Assessment Tool to assess current surveillance oversight practices, and the creation of intermediary bodies such as Techno-ethics Boards that can be used to provide advice and guidance at points between those who create hard law and regulation regarding surveillance operations and those who practice its implementation, are the touchstones of this offering. Future research in this area should, at the very least, explore: (1) The possibilities for such enterprises to be developed; (2) The procedural hurdles that would need to be overcome to make Techno-ethics Boards a reality in law enforcement settings across levels of government; (3) the selection of proper participants in such endeavors; and (4) the piloting of the Surveillance Technology Accountability and Assessment Tool in a variety of settings to determine its overall usefulness.28\n1 The Appendix provides some insight into the complexity of implementing common global standards for security and privacy, even within liberal democracies. Reviewing the variety of institutional structures and oversight mechanisms established by Australia and India gives perspective to the wider challenge beyond that posed by the EU\u2013US focused discussion that has primarily occupied us.\n2 We are mindful of T. H. Green\u2019s warning \u2013 albeit in a somewhat different context \u2013 that the precise measures to be adopted as social policy need to have regard to what people will tolerate: \u201cto attempt a restraining law in advance of the social sentiment necessary to give real effect to it, is always a mistake.\u201d See T.H. Green, \u201cLiberal Legislation and Freedom of Contract\u201d, (1881), published in Works, ed. R.L. Nettleship (London: Longmans, 1888), vol. 3, 265\u201386. The Appendix to this study adds grist to this mill. The countries reviewed clearly operate at different points of what could reasonably be construed as a security/privacy continuum. Recognizing that such variation exists requires sensitivity in establishing mechanisms for achieving the common end of desired protection for multiple stakeholders. Providing a flexible framework for choosing and implementing a menu of means, which we are attempting to articulate here, is essential to enabling success in what are often dissimilar settings.\n3 See Charles Doyle, \u201cNational Security Letters in Foreign Intelligence Investigations: A Glimpse of the Legal Background and Recent Amendments\u201d, CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web, March 31, 2006, Order Code RS22406.\n4 See Julie Hirschfeld Davis, \u201cLawmakers Warn FBI Over Spy Powers Abuse\u201d, Associated Press, March 21, 2007.\n5 See John Solomon and Carrie Johnson, \u201cFBI Broke Law for Years in Phone Records Searches\u201d, The Washington Post, January 19, 2010, A01.

A key point made was that a lack of evidence exists allowing such a question to be resolved, and that new approaches to measure the work of IRBs must be developed.

According to DawnNewsTV, the first vote was cast in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's Charsadda.\nThe battle is set to come down to three parties: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI).\nThe polling process witnessed its first incidence of violence around 11am when a blast targeting law enforcers was reported in NA-260 in Quetta\u2019s Eastern bypass area. SSP operations Naseebullah confirmed the blast. According to sources in Quetta Civil Hospital, 15 people have been killed and more than 24 injured in the blast.\nEarlier, according to AP, a shooting between supporters of two opposing political parties left one person dead and wounded two people in a village near the northwestern city of Swabi.\nWhile polling stations officially opened for voting at 8am, enthusiastic citizens queued up outside their respective stations as early as 7am.\nPML-N Chief Shahbaz Sharif was among the first people to cast his vote. Speaking to the media outside the polling station in Model Town, Lahore, he requested that people come out and vote for PML-N.\nOther politicians and candidates, including former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, former Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, Muttahida Qaumi Movement - Pakistan's (MQM-P) Farooq Sattar and Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) Chairman Mustafa Kamal, have also taken part in the polling process.\nAt 371,388, a record number of troops have been deployed at polling stations at the ECP\u2019s request to maintain law and order and take action against harassment.\nPolling stations will remain open for voting till 6pm, as per the deadline announced by the ECP for voters.\nIn all, 11,673 candidates are in the run, 3,428 for National Assembly and 8,245 for provincial assembly seats.\nThe statistics shared with the media reveal that independent candidates outnumber the candidates fielded by political parties.

        "raw_content": "Home / Christian Financial Stewardship\nChristian Financial Stewardship\nOne of the areas that we all need to be estute in is the management of our money. We all have bills to pay, goals to attain, and toys to buy. However, if we are poor stewarts with our money then we are more likely to miss out on many of the things that we otherwise could have obtained. Therefore, we as Christians need to be effective financial stewarts so that we could do and have all that God has for us and wants us to do.\nThere are many that are vying for your money. Just turn on the television and notice all of the comercials. Listen to the radio and notice the commercials. They are all trying to convince you to purchase their products. They ultimately want your money so that they would grow as a company and make more profit. Unfortunately the church in many cases is in the same category. Many men are vying for your money. They teach you to give your money to a local church and you will be blessed. They tell you to support the man of God and you will be blessed. These and many other teachings the present to you in an effort to win your resources.\nWell enough is enough. It is time for us to get smart and be good stewarts of what God has given us. We may make mistakes and we may have milestones, but the important thing is to at least know the truth so that you would have something to guide you overall. Stop blindly giving your money to the store, the gambling places, and even to your church. Give with purpose. Give with decision. God has given you resources and it is your responsibility to be a good stewart of those resources.\nI will share with you some principles that I have learned over the years in regards to financial management. This is not a \"how to invest your money\" course, but rather basic principles that you could use to help you better manage your money. With me it all began with my mother and watching how she managed her money. You will learn more of the resulting system from those observations later in this study. I also learned from my father as he used a little filing box when he payed the bills. Between my mother and father I learned responsiblity and organization in regards to financial management. I also learned how to save for specific things from my mom. So let's get started in our study of Christian Financil Management.\nThe Scriptural Component\nThe first thing I would like to do is develop a spiritual/biblical foundation for the Christian Financial Management system. This is important because as Christians we surely desire to do things God's way. Note that these are principles that you can learn for yourself by studying the Bible so I encourage you to do just that in addition to reading and studying this document.\nMy View on Prosperity\nSince the 1980's there has been a teaching in the Christian community regarding prosperity. This prosperity teaching refers to our ability to have wealth from God through our faith. The faith and prosperity teachings states that we can have the nice cars, big homes, and great lifestyle if we have faith in God and plant seeds. Usually this teaching involves the tithe and giving to ministries. For example, we are taught that we must tithe to our local church in order to prosper and in order to receive from God. There was a time when I actually believed this since tithing is after all in the Bible. However, after studying the subject in its proper context in the Bible and other historical resources, I have found that the tithing law that the church teaches is not Biblically sound. I have also found that the prosperity teaching in itself is not biblically sound.\nTrue prosperity is not measured in dollars and cents. It is measured, I believe, as the fulfillment of your God given purpose. One prospers by progressing in the things that he is doing according to God's will. This is true prosperity and one that is not taught that much in the church community. The Bible does not teach that God wants us rich and that God will give us all of the desires of our hearts including the new car, the new house, and the jewelry. Therefore, prosperity is not riches and having riches is not necessarily prosperity.\nYes it is OK to have nice things if you can afford it and yes God will give us things just for our pleasure. I am convinced that we do not serve a tyrant God who cares nothing for us except using us to accomplish his will. He does care for us and he does give us gifts in addition to providing for us. However, the Bible does not indicate that God will grant us all of our desires just because we claim to have \"mountain moving faith.\" So do not think that having a lot of money means that you are prosperous. Ultimately our goal is to do the will of God and not to pursue riches.\nYou must have the proper perspective about money and prosperity before you will be able to benefit from the information in this study. Proper perspective will allow you to see your finances in a whole new light based on God\u2019s view of your finances and not the world\u2019s view. What\u2019s important here is that you see yourself and everything about you the way God sees you and not the way the world sees you. Only after you have done that will you be able to change your financial situation.\nThe Christian has to have the proper focus if he/she expects to live according to God\u2019s will and thus his provision. Whatever you are focused on will determine where you will Go. If you are focused on the world and what it has to offer than you will progress according to the world and in the world. However, the Christian does not operate by worldly principles. The Christian should walk according to the Spirit and thus focus on God and his purposes.\nThe first step to changing your financial situation is to know your heavenly Father on a personal basis. The life of a Christian should be focused on God the Father and his purpose for you individually. Christians many times focus on situations instead of God. We focus on our bills and our ability to pay them instead of focusing on God.\nHow do you focus on God? Focusing on God means that God is the center of your life. He is the one that you ultimately trust regardless of the situation. He has the final word concerning your finances and not your checkbook or paycheck. This can only happen if you know God personally. In order to know God personally, you have to spend quality time with him as often as you can. You have to meditate on his word day and night until his word is deep in your mind and spirit and effects and influences your life. The bible says,\n\"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. {6} In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.\" (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV)\nDon\u2019t totally rely on your logical deductions and abilities. Trust God to do what he promised. Trust him fully with no doubt. If we do this then we will go where God wants us to go and therefore have confidence knowing that God will take care of us. God is not some spiritual entity in the heavens (the man upstairs). God is our heavenly Father who is personally involved in our lives. We have to be involved with his purpose and stay focused on him and that purpose. Consider what the Bible says about God\u2019s purposes.\n\"Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.\" (Proverbs 19:21 NIV)\nSo if God\u2019s purpose will stand, then you should get in agreement with his purpose. Then you and your finances will stand and prosper as God\u2019s purpose prevails.\nWalk According To God\u2019s Purpose\nIn order to prosper, we must walk in obedience. What does this obedience involve? It involves walking according to your God given purpose. You will prosper and live in fulfillment when you know your purpose and follow all of God\u2019s instructions to accomplish that purpose. Let\u2019s examine some people who illustrate this principle.\nSolomon - Read 1 Kings 3:5-15. God appeared to Solomon in a dream and told him to ask anything he wanted God to give him. Solomon asked for discernment in order to rule God\u2019s people. God did grant his request along with great wealth. The key here is that Solomon knew what God wanted him to do, namely to be king, and Solomon\u2019s request was based on that purpose. His prosperity was directly related to God\u2019s purpose for him and overall.\nJoseph - Read Genesis chapter 37 and chapters 39 through 47. Joseph was sold by his brothers only to end up in prison. However, when all was done, Joseph was very prosperous, along with those associated with him (Potiphar for example). Joseph was walking according to God\u2019s purpose. Notice what he says here.\n(Genesis 45:5-8 NIV) \"And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. {6} For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will not be plowing and reaping. {7} But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance. {8} \"So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.\"\nAbraham - Abraham is the father of faith. Abraham is the father of those who believe. His purpose was to be the originator of those who would be of faith. Jesus Christ is a descendant of Abraham. We see the ultimate purpose of Abraham was:\n(Genesis 12:1-3 NIV) \"The LORD had said to Abram, \"Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you. {2} \"I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. {3} I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.\"\"\nWe also see that Abraham (Abram) became very prosperous. The bible says,\n(Genesis 13:2 KJV) \"And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.\"\nHe was prosperous because he was living according to God\u2019s will and he was accomplishing God\u2019s purpose overall and for him personally.\nJesus Christ - Jesus Christ walked totally in God\u2019s purpose for his life and therefore received all of God\u2019s provisions for his life. He knew what he was supposed to do and he did it. Don\u2019t think for a moment that Jesus was poor just because the Bible does not say that he had great wealth. Jesus had all that he needed at all times. He walked in total submission to God\u2019s will and purpose. If God said it then Jesus did it. God had already provided whatever Jesus needed to fulfill his purpose. The same holds true for us today. If we would walk according to God\u2019s purpose then we too will walk in total provision.\nEcclesiastes 12:13 KJV) \"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.\"\nNote that you don\u2019t obey God as though you are a puppet and you heed your master\u2019s every command. You obey God because you trust God and you love God. Jesus said,\n(John 14:15 NIV) \"If you love me, you will obey what I command.\"\nIf you do not have vision then you will not progress. The bible says,\n(Proverbs 29:18 KJV) \"Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.\"\n\"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.\" (Hebrews 11:1 KJV)\nWe are taught much about having faith in God. We are taught to have faith in God for healing, meeting our needs, and much more. However, this scripture tells us that without hope faith has nothing to do. Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Therefore, if there is hope than faith brings substance to it. If there is no hope then there is no substance. What is hope? Hope is the vision. Hope is the picture of the thing that you believe God for. Hope is the blueprint that faith operates on to bring what is hoped for to pass. Therefore, you must see yourself as debt free and financially free in order to realize it. You have to have an active biblical hope in order for your faith in God to manifest into financial freedom.\nHoarding Wealth\nJesus warns us about greed in Luke 12:14-21. Wealth that is kept in storage is not being used to fulfill God\u2019s purpose. This type of wealth will eventually be lost. The bible says,\n\"There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.\" (Proverbs 11:24 KJV)\nDon\u2019t desire to be prosperous simply to be prosperous. Desire to prosper so that you can be a blessing to others. Note what the bible says about obtaining wealth.\n\"But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today.\" (Deuteronomy 8:18 NIV)\nGod is the one who gives us the ABILITY to obtain wealth. What is the purpose of God doing this? To establish his covenant! What is the covenant? This is referring to the Abrahamic covenant and not the blessings given in Deuteronomy. The bible says,\nYou can see here what God had in mind. He would bless Abraham (Abram) so that Abraham would be a blessing to all nations. He didn\u2019t bless Abraham so that Abraham simply would be blessed (prosperous).\nWealth is OK\nReligion has taught many people that it is evil to have a lot of money. You hear terms such as \"Filthy rich\" for example. We are subconsciously programmed to believe that wealth is of the world and poverty and lack is of God. Having wealth is OK. There is nothing evil or ungodly about having an abundance. Sometimes God is behind the financial wealth that some people have. Therefore, we cannot say that all financial abundance is evil.\nLet\u2019s look at an example from Jesus\u2019 teaching.\n(Luke 12:15-21 NIV) \"Then he said to them, \"Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.\" {16} And he told them this parable: \"The ground of a certain rich man produced a good crop. {17} He thought to himself, 'What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.' {18} \"Then he said, 'This is what I'll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. {19} And I'll say to myself, \"You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.\"' {20} \"But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?' {21} \"This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God.\"\"\nThis man was storing up his wealth for himself. Instead of meeting the needs of others and being a blessing, he decided to hoard all that he had. The end of all that was death. The outcome that this man experienced will be the outcome to all that practice greed.\nReligion many times uses the incident of the rich ruler to justify its teaching of wealth being evil. However, a close look at that situation (See Matthew 19:16-26) will reveal that the man\u2019s problem was not his money. The problem was his attitude. Look at what Jesus told him.\n(Matthew 19:21 NIV) \"Jesus answered, \"If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.\"\"\nJesus told this man that he did not have treasure in heaven. Jesus was trying to get this man focused on God instead of his money. Recall what Jesus said in another teaching.\n(Matthew 6:19-21 NIV) \"\"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. {20} But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. {21} For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.\"\nThis man had his treasures stored on earth instead of heaven. In order for him to effectively walk with Jesus Christ and according to His ways, the rich ruler would have to change his attitude about money. He, in effect, had to switch gods. His god was his money and Jesus was trying to get his god to be God the Father. So the money wasn\u2019t the problem. The man\u2019s focus was the problem.\nThe root cause of many problems involving money is revealed in both of the examples above. This root cause is the love of money, wealth, and possessions. The root cause principle is lust. The bible says,\n\"But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.{10} For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.\" (1 Timothy 6:9-10 KJV)\nNotice that Paul said \"they that will be rich.\" This refers to people who are seeking riches instead of those who are already rich, though the principle applies in both cases. The object (money) was not and is not the problem. There is nothing that a one thousand-dollar bill can do to anyone. People that are motivated by greed and lust will kill and steal for that thousand-dollar bill. It is the lust for riches that motivates people to do evil.\nReligion has also taught us that God will meet your needs but not your wants or desires. This is also a lie from Satan. God does not care what type of car you drive, house you live in, or clothes you wear as long as you are walking according to his purpose. You may desire a new suit or a new home. This is OK. God desires the best so we should desire the best. Don\u2019t settle for second best when God is your Father. God will tell you, by his Holy Spirit, if you are going off track (if your motive is wrong). Note what the bible says about our desires.\n(Psalms 37:3-4 NIV) \"Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. {4} Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.\"\nNote that the desires of your heart are granted AFTER you have delighted and trusted in the Lord as well as doing good. The bible also says,\n\"The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: but the desire of the righteous shall be granted.\" (Proverbs 10:24 KJV)\n\"The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.\" (Proverbs 11:23 KJV)\nTherefore, if you are righteous, don\u2019t be afraid to desire things. Your God given desires will be granted. They have to because they come from God. I believe that some of our desires are a direct result of the purpose that God has on our lives.\nSacrificial Giving Misconception\nHow many times have you heard that you have to give something up in order to give to the kingdom of God? How many times have you heard that you have to give a sacrifice offering in order to move God or something like that? The principle of sacrificial giving is not biblically accurate. No one wants to give something up just to give to another cause. I will be reluctant to make a sacrifice offering (above my tithe and regular offerings) if I want or need a new suit. I don\u2019t see the reality of my giving nor the true spiritual purpose or operation.\nThe word sacrifice does not refer to financial giving at all in the entire New Testament of the Bible. Sacrifice implies giving something up for another. There are times, however, where you will reprioritize your money when you see someone in need. For example, I may forfeit a new suit to help my church meet a ministry need. Is this a sacrifice? NO! Look at what the bible says,\n\"He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.\" (Proverbs 19:17 KJV)\nSo you see that you are really not giving anything up absolutely. The only thing you are doing is putting someone else\u2019s need above your need or desire. God will still give you what he has for you even if you help someone else. Do not think for a moment that if you give to your church or help someone in a time of need that you are forfeiting something that you need or want. You will only forfeit what God didn\u2019t intend for you to have in the first place. The bible says,\nYou will only receive from God what he intends for you to receive. Therefore, discard the concept of sacrificial giving. You do not have to sacrifice anything that God has for you.\nGiving From our own Resources\nWe fear sometimes when we think of giving the church or someone in need $500, $1000, or more. Why? We think that this will somehow deprive us. We think of it as a sacrifice. We only see our financial accomplishments based on our own resources (paycheck, bank account, business, etc.). We don\u2019t see our accomplishments coming from God. We don\u2019t see the things we need to purchase as coming from God. We don\u2019t see that new suit as a gift from God. We don\u2019t see the new home as a gift from God. The bible says,\n\"Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.\" (2 Corinthians 9:10 NIV)\nGod provides the money that he wants us to give. If God tells you to give $500 to the church then he will give you $500 to give. If God says that you can go and get a new suit or prompts you to get a new suit then he will provide the money to acquire that suit (whether you buy it or someone else). Our giving by God\u2019s direction is an act of obedience as God works through us. It is not a matter of self-sacrifice as an indication of our self-righteousness that we give. We give because God says so and we obey.\nScriptural Truths About Finances\nLet\u2019s move into some specific teachings about finances from the bible.\nThe word steward means: manager, custodian, caretaker, administrator, or trustee. The steward is the person that effectively and efficiently uses the money and resources that God has given him/her. Your paycheck has been given to you by God\u2019s intervention. Never think that you have done anything on your own.\nHow do you manage the money that you receive from your paycheck or income from your personal business? How do you manage the monetary gifts that you receive? If you do not manage these very well then how do you expect to manage an abundance? Why would you think that God would give you more if you waste what you have now? The fundamental principle of stewardship as it relates to prosperity is as follows:\nWe can see here that the fundamental prerequisite for prosperity in God\u2019s kingdom is to be an effective steward with what you currently have so that you will be able to manage more.\nThe following discussion will reveal some practical principles that you can use in managing your finances. Proverbs teach us that wisdom is the beginning of our prosperity. See Proverbs 4:7, 3:13-15, and 8:14-36 concerning wisdom and Proverbs 1:7, 9:10, 10:23, and Job 28:28. First we seek. Then we obtain knowledge followed by understanding and then wisdom. Wisdom is followed by actions. Therefore, it is imperative that you obtain financial wisdom so that financial prosperity can be achieved (fulfill God's purpose in your life financially).\nPlace the needs of people ahead of profit when possible (Proverbs 11:26). See also Genesis 41:56-57. This is especially applicable to those who are in business for themselves. Always consider the needs of the people and use wisdom in your decisions.\nAvoid securing debts for another person (Proverbs 17:18, 6:1-5, 11:15, 22:26-27). When you secure a debt (loan) for someone, you are in effect placing your money on the line. If you want to help the person purchase something then just give him/her some money.\nSave for future projects and goals (Proverbs 21:20, 8:21). I do not believe in saving money just to be saving it. Always have a purpose for the money that you are saving. For example you may be saving for a new home in a few years.\nDo not accept bribes (Proverbs 17:23, Exodus 28:8, Deuteronomy 27:25). This is a dishonest act that could bring about a curse on your life. Also do not bribe anyone else for your own motives.\nDo not charge people interest when you lend them money (Deuteronomy 22:25-27, Leviticus 25:35-37). See also Nehemiah 5:1-12 for an example of this very act. The opportunity to meet the needs of the people should not be an opportunity for profit.\nHow Is Money Acquired?\nThe Three primary ways that a Christian acquires money are:\n1. Working - The foremost method used to acquire money is to work. Work does not necessarily indicate a \"9-to-5\" job. It indicates the process of obtaining increase for something that you have done. This could be your regular occupational job, part-time job, running your own business, cutting grass on weekends, ministry, etc. The bible says:\n\"In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers, to keep away from every brother who is idle and does not live according to the teaching you received from us. For you know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you, nor did we eat anyone's food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to make ourselves a model for you to follow. For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: 'If a man will not work, he shall not eat.'\" (2 Thessalonians 3:6-10 (NIV))\nOther references are 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12, Ephesians 4:28, and Proverbs 13:11.\nOn the other side of the issue, the bible says...\n\"He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. (Proverbs 10:4)\n\"By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.\" (Ecclesiastes 10:18)\nWe see here that laziness is a sure way to obtain poverty and lose what you currently have and that work is a biblical way to obtain prosperity. See also (Proverbs 24:30-34, 20:13, 6:10-11).\n2. Investments - The Use of your money to get something in return whether monetary or not is an investment. You can invest in the stock market, business, your home, or kingdom building (See Matthew 25:14-18). Always use wisdom and remember to seek God's direction before committing your money to any investment opportunity. The greatest investment that you can have is the investment in kingdom building including your local church (See Proverbs 13:11).\n3. Harvesting - Harvesting is the process of receiving from the seeds that you have sown. This process is basically the manifestation of the blessing for being obedient to God. This manifestation occurs in many different forms. It could be a phenomenal growth in your business, a major promotion on your job, or gifts for example. If you have not been a giver than you should not expect a harvest just as a farmer who does not sow his seed should not expect to reap a harvest.\nOur harvest is not a result of work alone. Notice, in Haggai 1:1-11, that the people planted seed but their seeds did not produce much fruit. This seems to contradict the spiritual principle of sowing and reaping. Why did they not reap an abundant harvest? God says that they were taking care of themselves in luxury while God's house (Today this would be the church building) was in ruin. The people were not concerned about God's house. They took what they had and spent it on themselves. Note in particular verses 5 and 6 that illustrate how our increase can be dissipated regardless of how hard we work.\nA significant part of your financial stewardship will include planning. Planning is the process of projecting, anticipating, and deciding on a particular financial path to accomplish a specified goal. For example you may plan a certain financial path to purchase a new home in five years. God must be involved with your plans in order for them to be effective. Remember that only God\u2019s purposes will prevail. Don't just decide to do something. Pray about it and then act on the spiritual guidance that you receive. Seek Godly wisdom and counsel from others (Whom you feel are familiar with the subject matter). God must be involved with your financial plans or you risk wasting the money that he has given you thus missing the purpose he had for you. See Proverbs 16:9, 19:21, Psalms 37:23, Proverbs 27:23-27, and 21:5.\nThe art of anticipation is crucial to effective planning. A person who lives from one paycheck to another is not operating in financial planning nor is he/she anticipating anything. Anticipation looks in the future and sees probable events taking place. Those events are then accounted for in today\u2019s plans so that when we reach the actual point of the event, we are ready for it (at least to some extent). Some things that you may anticipate are tax increases, increases in health insurance, increase in life insurance, etc. You may also anticipate pay raises or increases in your revenue from your business.\nWe begin to move into the realm of hope if we add a degree of faith to our anticipation. Now the event that we anticipate is not just a projected occurrence in time but an expected occurrence in time. This expectation is founded upon God\u2019s word and manifests itself into hope, which is brought into existence by faith.\n1. Meeting Our Needs - Money is used to meet our daily needs such as food, utility bills, etc. The bible says that God would meet all of our needs (Matthew 6:25-34) and our earnings is a primary way that this is done.\n2. Kingdom Building - When we give to our local church, we are providing for the work of the Lord on the earth (Kingdom building) which results in the salvation of many. The Tithes and offerings are the main method that we invest or give for kingdom building. Kingdom building promotes the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It also promotes the building up (edifying) of people. With the word of God in their mind and spirit, people are able to over come obstacles and live unhindered according to God\u2019s purpose.\n3. Giving To Those In Need - When it is within your power to do good then do it (Proverbs 3:27,28). I believe that Christians everywhere should give to those who are in need. Our motivations for giving should not be for self gain, rather for the edification of the people in the kingdom of God.\n\"And all that believed were together, and had all things common; And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.\" (Acts 2:44,45)\n4. Meet Our Desires - There is nothing wrong with having a desire for something as long as our motives are correct (See James 4:2-3). It is therefore important that God is involved with your goals and plans so that you are not pursuing desires against God's will and purpose and thus with wrong motives.\nThe concept of sowing and reaping has been corrupted in the Christian community. Sowing reaping has degraded into a way to get something from God by giving something to your church or to someone else. We are taught that in order to get that new home or that new job that we have to give a certain amount of money to our church. The basic biblical principle of sowing and reaping has been perverted by such teachings. Sowing and reaping is a very basic principle that describes the results of our sowing activities. Read my study on \"Tithing, Giving, Sowing and Reaping\" for a detailed discussion on this topic.\nRead the second part of this study on the actual management techniques that you can use to manage your finances.\nThe Management Component\nChristians should know how to manage their money if we expect to be good stewards of that money. In this section we will reveal to you some techniques that you can use to help you manage your money more effectively.\nBasic Financial Practices\nThe following are some basic financial practices that you should incorporate in your normal financial activities.\nHave sufficient funds for all checks - Always have the money necessary to cover a check in your checking account at the time you write the check. Always take into account any other checks that you have written that have not cleared yet and assure that the money to cover the check has been allocated for the item that the check is written for (we will discuss this aspect later in this study guide). Keep your checkbook register current.\nNever Predate Checks -In lieu of the previous principle, we see that predating checks is not acceptable. Predating a check means that you don\u2019t have the money to cover the check but you will by the date of the check. Write a check only if the money is available at that time to cover the check and not before.\nDo not write Faith Checks - These are checks people write knowing that the money is not in the bank to cover it but believe that, if they have faith in God, the money will somehow be deposited into the bank to clear it or they will miraculously get the money to cover the check at a later date.\nNever Rob Peter to Pay Paul - Avoid using money allocated for one purpose to be used for another. For example, don't use your rent money to buy a new suit.\nAvoid Impulse Buying - Purchasing something spontaneously or compulsively without consulting your priorities, availability of funds, plans, or God is impulse buying. Idle window-shopping and Mall floating are probably the greatest promotions for impulse buying. Always plan your purchases so that you protect yourself from buying things on impulse.\nKeep your checkbook register current - Always record all transactions affecting your checking account. Maintain an up-to-date check book register. Note that this could be in the form of a checking account program. Regardless of how you do it, ensure that your checking account records are always up to date.\nAlways review your monthly bank statements - Bank errors and personal oversights can be corrected promptly if you compare your records with the bank records. This involves reconciling your checking account each month. We will discuss reconciliation later in this study.\nPlan your purchases - Planning your purchases and sticking to your plans is a sure way to avoid squandering your money. Know what you want to purchase by developing a specification sheet. Know how much you plan to spend and do not go over that amount. Avoid compromises. I believe that it is important to purchase what you want and not settle for something else.\nKeep Financial records centrally organized - Keep your financial records, receipts, bill stubs, etc. in one centralized location in your home for easy access.\nKeep all significant receipts - This is good for tax purposes, item returns, and basic spending analysis.\nCredit cards are not money and they should not be treated as such. Credit cards should be used very cautiously and responsibly. Ideally, you should always have the money to cover the credit card purchase. Always remember that \"an increase in your credit limit is not an increase in money that you have.\" An increased credit limit only means that more of someone else's money is available to you to borrow at a cost!\nThe Cost of the Credit Card\nLook at your current monthly credit card statement. In particular, look at the amount that you paid and the amount that was applied to interest. You may be shocked when you see how much of what you paid actually was applied to your principle. This is how the world system makes it easy for you to purchase things and keep you in debt - in bondage. In general, the cost of using the credit card is very high.\nSpending Practices\nOne of the greatest downfalls we have is uncontrolled spending. Before you make any purchase you should ask yourself the following questions.\nDo I have the money to purchase this item?\nHave I checked my priorities?\nHave I shopped around for the best buy?\nDo I hear a voice advising me not to purchase (God\u2019s voice, your mother or father\u2019s voice, etc.)?\nNow let's discuss the tools that you can use to help you manage your money. Note that the methods that are presented here are not exclusive. There are many other methods that you can use to effectively manage your money. Start with these and adapt them to your specific situation. The financial management system discussed in this study is composed of three separate components:\nThe Monthly expense list\nThe itemized account list.\nThe first step to financial management is to know how you spend your money. Therefore, list all of your monthly expenses to provide a foundation for your financial planning. Note that there are some expenses that may not be monthly. For example, your car insurance may be semi-annual and your life insurance may be annual expenses. These expenses will be translated into monthly expenses for consistency. The following example demonstrates this translation.\nAssume that you have the following non-monthly expenses:\nCar Insurance $1002.00 (Semi-annually)\nLife Insurance $ 204.00 (Annually)\nIf the expense is paid quarterly then divide by 3, if semi-annually then divide by 6, and if annually then divide by 12. Therefore, you will divide the car insurance amount by six and the life insurance amount by twelve. This gives the corresponding translated monthly expenses of:\nCar Insurance = $167.00 (Monthly)\nLife Insurance = $ 17.00 (Monthly)\nIn this study you will use the following monthly expense list which includes the above translated expenses for illustration purposes. This list indicates what your money is spent on each month. Be sure that all regular expenses are in this list whether necessities or luxuries.\nSears Charge\nCar Note $200.00\nPhones $25.00\nNews Paper $5.00\nCar gasoline $100.00\nLife Insurance $17.00\nTithes $240.00\nCar maintenance $25.00\nClothes $50.00\nChristmas Gifts $50.00\nAppliance Maintenance $25.00\nGroceries $ 225.00\nWe will also use a net income of $2000.00 per month in this study and we will deal only with a positive cash flow (Income greater than expenses). If your expenses exceed your income then you are living above your means and you probably have high credit balances to pay, which continuously rise. In this case your first priority is to lower you monthly expenses or increase your monthly income (legally of course).\nI have found that many people have the wrong concept of the budget. They think of a budget as something that will limit you in your financial management endeavors. However, that is not the definition of a budget. Let's talk about the budget now. Whenever you receive money, you should always ask yourself \"What will I do with this money?\" The budget only records your answer to this question. The budget discussed in this study will apply to your regular paycheck. Other monies will have different budgets associated with them such as birthday gifts, bonus checks, and any other money that you receive. Think of it this way. You will make up a budget every time you receive money. When you receive a bonus check, for example, you will ask yourself what to do with the money and record your answer. I define a budget as a distribution list for a particular income, which allocates money to specified expense items. If your income and/or expenses change then the budget will change.\nNote that if your paycheck or source of income is the same every week or regular then your budget will be the same. If all are constant then you won\u2019t have to generate a new budget every time you are paid. There are three reasons why your budget would change.\nYour income changes\nYour monthly expense changes\nYou decide to distribute your money differently\nAgain I think it is worth repeating here. The budget is only a record of how YOU decide to spend YOUR money. It is not a limiting device. What limits you is the availability of funds and not your budget. The budget is a distribution list of an income source. It records how you decided to distribute the money received from an income source, paycheck for example, among various expense items.\nGenerating A Budget\nThe budget is constructed by dividing each expense item amount in the monthly expense list by the number of paychecks you receive in one month. For example, if you are paid weekly then you receive about four paychecks per month. Therefore you will have to divide all of the dollar amounts in the monthly expense list by four. If you are paid bi-monthly then you are paid about two times per month and would therefore have to divide the expense item amounts by two.\nLet's construct a budget for illustration. Let's use a weekly pay interval. Your net pay is $500.00 per week ($2000 per month divided by 4 paychecks per month). All you will have to do is to divide all of the dollar amounts in the monthly expense list by four. This gives you the budget shown below.\nBUDGET FOR PAYCHECK\nSears Charge $5.00\nHome improvement loan $18.75\nVisa Card $20.00\nCar Note $50.00\nMortgage $87.50\nPhones $6.25\nCar gasoline $25.00\nLife Insurance $4.25\nTithes $60.00\nCar maintenance $6.25\nAppliance Maintenance $6.25\nThis budget shows how your paycheck will be distributed among the expense items. Notice that the total of the distribution amounts must be exactly the same as the paycheck amount, in this case $500.00. It is very important that ALL money is allocated. That means that the total of the budget amounts must be exactly the same as the paycheck amount.\nUsing the Budget\nHow do you use your budget? The budget shows you how you will allocate (distribute among expense items) money from the income source for which the budget was designed (example: your paycheck). Allocate to each expense item the amount indicated in the budget every time you receive a paycheck for example. In the budget above we see that $12.50 is allocated for gas, $12.50 for electric, $6.25 for phones, etc. Doing this will ensure that you will have the money needed to meet your financial obligations (bills) promptly. If any of your expenses or income changes then you will have to adjust the budget accordingly. Remember that the sum of all of the distribution amounts in the budget must be exactly the same as the income source..\nThere are two basic types of budgets that you should be aware of. They are the absolute and percentage budgets.\nAbsolute Budget -The absolute budget uses a fixed dollar amount to allocate to each expense item. This type of budget is mostly used for salaried workers who get the same amount of money on a regular interval (Weekly, bi-weekly, etc.). We used the absolute budget in our previous discussion of generating a budget.\nPercentage Budget - The percentage budget uses percentages of the current income to allocate to each expense item. Unlike the absolute budget, the allocation (distribution) amounts in the percentage budget can be different for each income payment (paycheck). For example you may allocate 5% of your income for gas, 7% for electric, or 25% for mortgage. The total of the allocated percentages must add up to 100%. This type of budget is useful for those who do not receive the same amount of money each paycheck. It would be helpful if you translated your monthly expense list from absolute dollar amounts to percentages of the total monthly income. This provides consistency between the percentage budget and monthly expense list. Note that a financial management system that uses the percentage budget requires more work to manage. This is because you have to constantly monitor your expenses and allocated amounts to ensure that you will have enough to meet your financial obligations.\nThe Itemized Account List\nThe itemized account list is used to keep track of all of the accumulated dollar amounts for each budgeted expense item. An itemized account is a checking or savings account that has been divided into separate sub-accounts to accommodate each applicable budget item. It is very important that you are familiar with the following account balance types to effectively use the itemized account list. There are at least three types of account balances, which are listed below.\nEffective Balance - This is the balance shown on your checking account register. This is the amount of money you would have in your checking account if all checks were cleared and all deposits and withdrawals were validated.\nActual Balance - This is the actual balance of your account at a specific time. This can be deceiving since this does not reflect checks that have not cleared. This is the balance that would be indicated if you go to the bank and inquired about your account balance.\nAvailable Balance - This is the amount that the bank makes available to you. The bank requires a certain number of days for a deposited check or other similar DOCUMENT to clear before that money is available to you.\nThe Envelope System: An Illustration\nLet me illustrate the itemized account concept by using an example that uses envelopes. Assume that you use regular mailing envelopes to store all of the money for each of your expense items (gas, electric, tithes, etc.). Now let\u2019s say that you get your weekly paycheck, you cash it at the bank and bring all of the money home. When you get home you know that you have to put money away for your expenses. So what you do next is to look at your budget and place the appropriate amount of money into each of the envelopes that you have set up for each expense.\nWhen it is time to pay a bill, you will take the money out of the applicable envelope and go pay your bill. If you want to know how much money you have accumulated for an expense item, you would simply look in the appropriate envelope and count the money. If you are short a certain amount of dollars when it is time to pay a bill then you will have to find another place to get the money. You can't just take money out of another envelope because that may result in you being short for that expense when its bill is due.\nThe envelope system forces you to be conscious of each expense item and not focus on the total amount of money among the envelopes. This concept will be very important to you when you use the itemized account list. All aspects of the itemized account list are the same as the envelope system except you have to maintain the amount of money accumulated for each expense by your financial records since many of the expenses that you accumulate money for is paid by a check.\nTypes Of Itemized Account Lists\nThere are at least two types of itemized account lists that are available for you to use. The first is the Item Basis and the second is the Monthly Basis.\nThe Item Basis\nThe Item Basis is the detailed list for managing money for all expenses individually. The first thing you must do is create an itemized account list from scratch. This will give you the initial point necessary to use the list along with your budget. We will first initialize each expense item without considering the amount of money in the actual checking account. After we have created the itemized account list, we will make adjustments to establish consistency with the effective balance. Remember that the sum of the expense item amounts in the itemized checking account list must be the same as the checking account\u2019s effective balance.\nThe following procedure will illustrate how to generate an itemized account list using the item basis.\n1. Identify those budget items whose funds will be kept in your checking account and write them down in tabular form. Note that the same applies if you use a savings account and pay your bills by money orders or cash.\n2. Calculate the initial dollar amount for each item in the above list. The sum of these dollar amounts must be the same as the checking account effective balance. Use the following steps to determine the initial balance of all real expense items. a real expense item are those items that are due each month and are mandatory. For example, the gas and electric bills are real expenses, however your weekly night outs at your favorite restaurants are not real expenses since they are not required or mandatory relative to financial management.\nDetermine the number of paychecks until the due date\nMultiply the result in (a) by the budget distribution amount (the amount indicated in your budget for this item)\nSubtract the result in (b) from the monthly expense amount for the item in the monthly expense list.\nSet the initial balance for the item to the result in (c)\nArbitrarily set all other non-real expense item amounts until the sum of all expense item amounts is the same as the checking account effective balance. If some items cannot be set because of insufficient funds in the checking account, then you are going to have to deposit money into your checking account or adjust the itemized account list. Right away, if that condition occurs, you know that you have been living above your means.\nLet's determine the item balance for the Gas utility budget item for illustration. Assume that you have two more paychecks until the due date of the gas bill and that you are paid weekly. Looking at your budget, you find that you allocate $12.50 per paycheck for Gas. Therefore, you will accumulated $25.00 by the due date from your paychecks. However, your monthly expense list indicates that the gas bill will be about $50.00 per month, a $25.00 shortage. Now you need to initialize the gas item balance in the itemized account list to $25.00 to compensate for the $25.00 shortage. Now you will have $50.00 after the next two paychecks to pay the gas bill. Do the same type of calculations for each of the real expense items in the itemized account list.\nHow to Use the Itemized Account List\nThe itemized account list identifies the amount of money available for each expense item at any given time. For example, if you want to buy a new suit that costs $430 and you only have $350 set aside for clothes, then you do not have enough money for the suit. You will have to wait until you accumulate more money for clothes, get $50 from someplace else, or buy a less expensive suit. This is independent of how much money you have in the checking account. Each item in the itemized account list is analogous to the envelopes in the envelope illustration given previously.\nYou never simply put money into your checking (or savings) account once you begin using the itemized account list. Money is always deposited into, withdrawn from, or check written against an item in the itemized account list. This indicates that each transaction must have a purpose and that purpose is indicated by the itemized account list item acted upon. For example, suppose the itemized account list indicates that you have set aside $50.00 for clothes. Let's say that you received a gift of $50.00, which you promptly deposit into your checking account to help with the purchase of the new suit. Therefore, the clothes item balance will increase from $50.00 to $100.00 because of the deposit. The checking account balance will simply increase by $50. If you then purchased a suit for $99.00, your clothes balance will decrease from $100.00 to $1.00 and the checking account balance will therefore decrease by $99.. Never just put money into or take it out of your checking account. All transactions are associated with an itemized account item.\nItemized Account List Transfers\nThere may be times when you have not accumulated enough money to pay a particular bill when it is due. For example, your Gas bill this month is $55.00 instead of $50.00 as indicated in the monthly expense list. You can't write a $55.00 Check to pay your gas bill because you don't have enough money for it even though your checking account balance is much greater than $50.00. What you will have to do is either deposit $5.00 for the Gas item or transfer $5.00 from another item in the itemized account list. Now suppose you have also accumulated $430 for savings. You can take $5.00 from the savings item and put it towards the Gas item. The savings item will now be $5.00 less, $395, and the Gas item will be $5.00 more, $55.00. This is a $5.00 transfer from the SAVINGS to GAS items. You can transfer from any non-essential expense item (clothes, savings, entertainment) for any reason as long as you are not \"Robbing Peter to pay Paul\". This would be similar to taking $5.00 out of the SAVINGS envelope and putting it into the CLOTHES envelope in the envelope illustration that we discussed earlier.\nThe Monthly Basis Itemized account list\nThe monthly basis of the itemized account list is a compacted version of the item basis. Instead of having individual expense items, you will group items into categories. This method can be used in the beginning so that you can get used to managing your money this way and if necessary switch to the item basis in the future. Remember that the monthly expense list, the budget, and the itemized account list are all linked and therefore must be consistent. As stated earlier, the monthly basis itemized account list can contain categories of expenses and not individual expense items. For example, instead of having GAS, ELECTRIC, and WATER expense items, you could group these into one expense called UTILITIES.\nThe following example illustrates a monthly basis monthly expense list where expense items have been grouped into categories.\nMONTHLY BASIS MONTHLY EXPENSE LIST BUDGET\nAmount/Paycheck\nDebt $725.00 $181.25\nUtilities $150.00 $37.50\nInsurance $184.00 $46.00\nMiscellaneous $276.00 $69.00\nFree $100.00 $25.00\nCar gasoline $100.00 $25.00\nTithes $240.00 $60.00\nTOTAL $2000.00 $500.00\nThe Amount/Paycheck indicates the amount of money allocated for the particular item each time you receive a paycheck.\nSince the monthly basis method contains categories of expense items, it is necessary to keep separate records for the amount you will spend on an individual item within a category. For example, you will have to know how much money you are spending on a particular Debt item if you are using the accelerated payments discussed later in this section.\nNow let\u2019s put the monthly expense list, budget, and itemized account list together so that we can see how all of these entities work together to help you manage your money.\nFirst you establish what your monthly expenses are by generating a monthly expense list.\nNext you create a budget which documents the distribution of funds from your paychecks (or other income source). this is how you decided to allocate your money for the various expense items.\nYou then distribute the money from your paycheck among the expensed items according to the budget.\nResources To Help You Manage Your Money\nThere are many resources that you can use to help you effectively manage your money. There are books and tapes from various ministers and financial organizations. You can purchase computer programs to manage your checking accounts (I have been using Quicken for many years and am very happy with it). You can buy computer programs that will enable you to pay your bills electronically and access your checking account.\nThe purpose of this section is to illustrate the practical uses of the budget and the itemized account list. We will examine various financial cases involving the manipulation of funds that will effect the budget and itemized account list.\nHow a Paycheck Effects the Itemized Account List\nAssume that you have been paid $500.00. The budget (third Column) will allocate money to each expense item in the current itemized account list (Two Leftmost Columns) resulting in an updated account list (rightmost column). Notice that the checking account effective balance is always equal to the sum of the expense items in the itemized account list.\nCurrent Allocated\nSears Charge 10.00 +5.00 =15.00\nHome improvement loan 37.50 +18.75 =56.25\nVisa Card 40.00 +20.00 =60.00\nCar Note 100.00 +50.00 =150.00\nMortgage 175.00 +87.50 =262.50\nGas 25.00 +12.50 =37.50\nElectric 25.00 +12.50 =37.50\nPhones 12.50 +6.25 =18.75\nNews Paper 2.50 +1.25 =3.75\nWater 12.50 +6.25 =18.75\nCar Insurance 83.50 +41.75 =125.25\nLife Insurance 8.50 +4.25 =12.75\nTithes 120.00 +60.00 =180.00\nSavings 100.00 +30.25 =130.25\nCar maintenance 100.00 +6.25 =106.25\nClothes 200.00 +12.50 =212.50\nChristmas Gifts 100.00 +12.50 =112.50\nAppliance Maintenance 50.00 +6.25 =56.25\nACCOUNT BALANCE 1202.00 + 393.75 = 1595.75\nCurrent Allocated = the amount of money that you have set aside (allocated) for the particular item.\nBudget Amount = the amount of money added to the current allocation from your paycheck allocations\nNew Allocated = the resulting amount allocated for the item.\nYou have deposited a total of $393.75 into the checking account for the applicable expense items. Notice that you only included those items that are managed in the checking account. The rest of the money is not deposited into the checking account. The expense items for groceries and car gas are kept in envelopes at home, and these envelopes will have the corresponding dollar amounts added to them as indicated by the budget. The sum of these items, from the budget is $106.25. The sum of this dollar amount and the amount you deposited into the checking account is indeed $500.00, the amount of your paycheck.\nYou have to keep track of the individual item balances at all times. This will be accomplished by one of two methods: 1) Computer Program or 2) Item Balance Sheets. We will discuss the item balance sheets in this study. You will record each deposit into each of the expense items in the itemized account list as directed by the budget (Middle Column). You should be able to examine any of the item balance sheets to determine the amount of money currently set aside for an item at any time. For ease of use, the order of the items in the item balance sheets should be in the same order as the budget.\nUsing the Item Balance Sheets\nRecord all transactions for the itemized checking account on the item balance sheets if they effect the checking account balance or any of the itemized account items. The steps for using the item balance sheets are as follows. For each deposit, withdrawal, and check written, record the date of the actual transaction, the check number if a check was written, the amount of the transaction (precede amount with a negative sign \"-\" for withdrawals or a positive sign \"+\" for deposits), adjust the item balance according to the transaction (add for deposits, subtract for withdrawals and checks), and record the reason or purpose of the transaction. Be sure that you update your checking account register and any other applicable records accordingly.\nHow an item transfer effects the Itemized Account List\nThe following case illustrates how you would update the itemized account list if you transfer funds from one item to another. Suppose your refrigerator malfunctioned and the cost to repair it is $75.00. There is only $56.25 accumulated so far for appliance maintenance according to the itemized account list. Therefore, you are short $18.75 and must make up the difference in order to pay the bill. You can use some of the money set aside for savings to make up the difference. You now have to transfer $18.75 from the savings item to the appliance maintenance item.\nThe transfer, as well as the previous financial activities, on the item balance sheets will look like the following:\nItem Name: Savings\nDate Check # Amount Balance Reason For Transaction\n4/15 +100.00 100.00 Initial Balance\n4/20 +30.25 130.25 From Paycheck\n4/27 -18.75 111.50 Transfer to appliance maintenance due to shortage for repairs\nItem Name: Appliance Maintenance\nReason For Transaction\n4/15 +50.00 50.00 Initial Balance\n4/20 +6.25 56.25 From Paycheck\n4/27 +18.75 75.00 Transfer from savings due to shortage\n4/27 1134 -75.00 0.00 Repairs to refrigerator\nNotice that after the repair bill was paid you withdrew $75.00 from the appliance maintenance item and the checking account. That is, you wrote a check (Check number 1134) for $75.00 against the appliance maintenance item. The appliance maintenance item balance becomes $0.00 and the checking account balance becomes $1520.75 ($1595.75 - $75.00).\nWe will now discuss the process of debt elimination. What debt really is and what steps you can take will be revealed in this section so that you can take practical steps to experience a debt free and financially independent life-style.\nBuild your dreams and goals. For example, imagine yourself giving $20,000 to your church or $50,000 to your parents. If you want to live in the house of your dreams then you might want to drive around new home developments to look at your dream home. Imagine yourself completely out of debt. How will you spend your thousands and millions? Write it down on a piece of paper. Believe God for a debt free life and confess it to yourself. The bible says...\nMark 11:22 through Mark 11:23 (KJV) 22And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.\nIn order to live a debt free life you are going to need the power of God constantly active in you so that you don't submit to the spirit of debt, pride and lust. Dream building is good on a practical level only. Don't be trapped by entertaining your lusts, which can easily happen. Stay focused on God and his purposes in all that you do.\nThe word debt means something owed, as money, goods, or services; an obligation or liability to pay or render something to another.\nThere are two types of debt that you should be aware of: Good debt and bad debt. Good debt is money that you owe for something that appreciates or holds it purchase price value. If you were for some reason unable to pay what you owe on something that was purchased with credit (good debt), then you could sell the item to acquire the money to satisfy your debt. This is a sign of good debt. An example of good debt may be your home or a painting. Bad debt is money that you owe for something that depreciates in value. The item that you purchased on credit could not cover the cost of the loan if you had to sell it. A good example of bad debt is a car loan. You could not sell your car to acquire the money to satisfy your loan if you could no longer make the monthly payments.\nEliminating debt is straightforward: Simply pay off all of your loans. It is much more involved then that however. It may mean a change of lifestyle especially if you are used to living above your means (on credit). It may mean some sacrifices on your part. It may mean one outing a month instead of five or six. It may also mean more work if you are not used to actively managing your money. You will find that you will have to take control of your spending practices if you expect to get out of debt and stay out of debt. So getting out of debt simply means adjusting your spending practices so that you will have more money available to put towards a debt elimination program. You can eliminate your debt much more effectively if you had proven tools and a plan to assist you. The purpose of this section is to present tools that you can immediately use to help you eliminate your debt. Note that debt elimination does not happen overnight. It will take you time to eliminate your debt so be patient and consistent.\nThe following are some basic steps that you can use to begin your debt elimination journey.\nEliminate or reduce all items that are not necessary (Movies, eating out, magazine subscriptions, cable, etc.).\nMinimize the Monthly Expense List. Minimizing the expense list is done as follows: Set all expense amounts (monthly payments) to that necessary to pay only the minimum monthly amount or the minimum needed for the expense.\nAdd all the new expense amounts and write down the result.\nSubtract the result in (b) from your total monthly income and write it down.\nDetermine the order to pay your debt off. A crude way to do this is as follows:\nGather all of your debt bills\nUsing the Debt Status form, write down the name, total balance, minimum monthly payment, and the payoff interval (monthly payment divided by the total balance) for each debt bill. See example in appendix A.\nNumber the debt items in the pay-off priority column in the order of the lowest payoff interval\nThe order of the debts to pay off is identified by the lowest to the highest number line items in the pay-off priority column.\nAdd the result in step (c) to the expense amount of the item identified in step (d). This will give you a new and greater monthly expense for this item, which means it will be paid off faster.\nAdjust the budget to reflect the changes in the monthly expense list. This will be your \"Get Out Of Debt\" (G.O.O.D.) budget.\nStart accelerating payments using the new monthly expense list and the corresponding budget. When the first debt is paid off, use some of the \"excess\" money for benevolence (giving to your church, helping someone financially, etc.). I will call this excess money a seed offering. Of course you have the prerogative to use this excess money anyway that you like. You may even decide to put all of it towards getting out of debt. However, as a Christian, I recommend that you always have some money or other resources aside available to help someone else who may be in need. Use the remainder, after you subtract your seed from the payment amount, to accelerate payments for the next debt item (next pay-off priority). Let's look at an illustration to help you understand this principle.\nAssume that you have the following monthly expenses with the corresponding debt pay-off priories.\nVisa $200.00 (1)\nFurniture Finance $300.00 (2)\nCar note $430.00 (3)\nTithe $240.00\nA note about the tithe item. The tithe item is what you have decided to give to your church (in this case 10%). Please note that I am not suggesting that Christians are obligated or even commanded to give 10% of their income to their local church. See the study \"Tithing, Giving, Sowing and Reaping\" for a very detailed study on the topic of tithing.\nYour minimized monthly expense list could look like this.\nVisa $188.00 ( -$ 12.00)[ Your monthly payment is really $188 and not $200]\nFurniture Finance $260.00 ( -$ 40.00) [Your monthly payment is really $260 and not $300]\nCar note $380.00 ( -$ 20.00) [Your monthly payment is really $380] and not $430]\nFood $180.00 ( -$ 20.00) [You really only spend $180 a month on food and not $$200]\nUtilities $280.00 ( -$ 20.00) [Your utility bill is really only about $280 and not $300]\nYour monthly expenses have been minimized by $112.00. You will apply this excess to the item with the smallest pay-off priority (or to the loan that will be paid off the fastest). You determine which item will be paid off fastest by applying the excess funds by manually calculating the effect of that excess on each item. I find that a spreadsheet program helps greatly in doing this. You could also simply use the item with the lowest balance as the highest priority. Let\u2019s assume that the visa will be paid off first if we accelerate payments. The Monthly expense list will now look like this.\nVisa $300.00 ($188 + $112)\nFurniture Finance $260.00\nYou now have $300.00 per month to apply to your visa payments.\nDetermine what your seed offering will be after the Visa is paid off. Let's arbitrarily use 10% of the available amount as a seed offering. The amount of money that has been made available is the payment amount for the item just paid off, which in this case is the $300.00 for the visa. The seed offering is therefore $30.00 (10% of $300). The adjusted available amount is $270.00, which will be applied to the furniture bill for which you now have $530 per month. The monthly expenses are now.\nFurniture Finance $530.00 ($260 + $270)\nSeed Offering $ 30.00 (10% of $300)\n$530 will be free after the furniture loan is paid. You will apply 10% of the original loan amount for the furniture loan and add that to the current seed offering. This amount is ($26.00) and the new seed offering will be $56.00 ($30 + $26). This will leave $504 to apply to the next loan payment. The monthly expenses are now.\nCar note $ 884.00 ($380 + $ 504)\nSeed Offering $ 56.00\nYour seed offering will increase by $38.00 after you have paid off the car note. Your budget will then look like the following:\nSeed Offering $ 91.00 ($56 + $38)\nNot only are you significantly out of debt, you have extra money to invest and you have helped, and are still helping others financially. Once you are out of debt - Stay out of debt. Do not let yourself get back into debt once you have eliminated it. Save money for expenses that you plan. Don't purchase things with credit unless you will remit the entire loan amount when the bill comes. Above all stay in communion with God so that the spirit of debt does not overtake you again. At this point your fundamental mode of operation is a cash only mode.\nWhat will you do with your money once you have eliminated all of your debt? The focus at this point is to use all available cash for building wealth. For the most part this means to invest your money (save with good interest). The following are some guidelines that you can use to help you remain financially independent (debt free).\nFocus all available cash on building your wealth\nInvest money in a liquid account for emergencies\nPay cash for everything.\nRemain obedient to what God tells you.\nThe Cash Basis\nIt is very important that you live on a cash only basis once you have become debt free and financially independent. If you begin to use credit and revert to the old ways that got you in debt in the past, then you will end up as you did in the past\u2014In debt and in bondage.\nLearn to save money (put money purposely aside) for items that you desire or need.\nTear up all of your credit cards except one. I believe that you should, or it is beneficial to, have one credit card for emergencies. I do not believe in carrying a lot of cash around so the credit card becomes very convenient in this respect. Of course when your credit card bill comes you will pay the balance completely thus keeping your credit card balance to zero. In this case the credit card is used as a substitute for cash. However, if it is within your power to use cash (including checks) then do so.\nRevealing Principles of Financial Management from a Christian\u2019s Perspective",

        "title": "Amazon's Bezos says National Enquirer tried to blackmail him over 'intimate photos'",
        "raw_content": "Earlier Thursday, the Amazon CEO alleged that American Media Inc. - the Enquirer's parent company - threatened to publish a nude photo of him if he didn't stop investigating the magazine's exposure of his affair and publicly declare that its reporting hadn't been \"politically motivated\".\nBezos last month posted a statement on Twitter, signed by him and his wife of 25 years, MacKenzie, announcing their plans to divorce.\nAfter the tabloid published a story about his extramarital affair last month, Mr. Bezos ordered a team of private investigators to get to the bottom of how the Enquirer obtained risque texts between the executive and former TV anchor Lauren Sanchez.\nBezos says in the AMI letters he is publishing, which follows his own narrative, readers will see \"the precise details of their extortionate proposal: They will publish the personal photos unless Gavin de Becker and I make the specific false public statement to the press that we 'have no knowledge or basis for suggesting that AMI's coverage was politically motivated or influenced by political forces'\".\nAnd in his Medium post, Bezos, who also owns The Washington Post, pointed to AMI and David Pecker's previous cooperation with Trump - including payments made to suppress negative stories, now under investigation by federal prosecutors.\nBezos went on to say that, \"Any personal embarrassment AMI could cause me takes a back seat because there's a much more important matter involved here\", Bezos wrote.\nA spokesperson and an attorney for AMI did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment. \"If in my position I can't stand up to this kind of extortion, how many people can?\" he said.\nAMI, the company that owns the National Enquirer is now feeling the heat from Justice Department investigations into potential corruption related to AMI CEO David Pecker's close ties with Donald Trump and the Saudi government.\nOnce Bezos tweeted a link to the post, it was only a matter of time before the dick pic commentary began.\nPatrick Whitesell and Lauren Sanchez at the Los Angeles Premiere Of Warner Bros.\nThe National Enquirer previously published an expose on Sanchez' and Bezos' relationship.\nJeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon and the world's richest man, has accused the National Enquirer of attempting to blackmail him by threatening to publish intimate pictures he had sent to his lover.\nPecker is now cooperating with federal investigators who are looking into the company's involvement with the Trump campaign.\nSo instead of quietly capitulating to avoid embarrassment, Bezos wrote his first-ever Medium post, making public the tabloid's threats and demands.\nPecker is cooperating with federal prosecutors who are investigating so-called catch-and-kill payments the Enquirer made ahead of the 2016 presidential election to at least one woman who alleged she had an affair with Trump.\nIn addition, he included emails from AMI's deputy general counsel, Jon Fine, detailing a list of terms under which AMI said it would withhold publication of the photos. He also published correspondence between AMI and lawyers for his investigator, Gavin de Becker.\nSounds like soon some people at The National Enquirer are going to \"learn to code\". That's one of the dangers to democracy of what they were engaged in when they were catching and killing information they could have used against Candidate Trump and now President Trump.\n\u00b7 Mr Bezos face selfie at what appears to be a business meeting.",

But the wait just got over as we have newbie icons Imran Khan and Sonam Kapoor pairing with one another in Punit Malhotra\u2019s I Hate Luv Storys. This romantic .edy will be directed by debutante Punit Malhotra and produced under Karan Johar\u2019s Dharma Productions. Wondering who is Punit Malhotra? He is none other than the nephew of ace fashion designer Manish Malhotra. \u2018I hate luv stories\u2019 is the aphorism Imran Khan lives by and totally has faith in what he believes in. Imran Khan is the assistant director to Samir Soni who is most celebrated romantic filmmaker of Indian Film fraternity. Imran Khan has little option but to live with larger than life, glossy, cinematic love on an everyday basis. Hell breaks loose when Imran Khan has to get along with his new production designer Sonam Kapoor. Imran plays the role of Jay and Sonam Kapoor plays the role of Simran in the movie. And also to add to it, Sameer Dattani and Samir Soni also would be seen playing pivotal roles in the movie. The music of the movie has been released and has connected well with the teen age. Musical duo Vishal-Shekhar has delivered one of their best ever. There are 5 original sound tracks in the film followed by 3 remixes. It\u2019s been sometime that Bollywood didn\u2019t have a great movie reining at the box office. And after the not so good business of Kites, a lot is expected from IHLS. This will be Sonam Kapoor\u2019s third release. Though she didn\u2019t have a good run at the box office with both her former movies but she has be.e a crowd favorite as the people are longing to see more of her. Both her previous flicks Saawariya and Delhi 6 were big banner big budget movies and also a musically hit film. Akin to the previous ones IHLS also has the music which has already made an impact in the market. Hope this time apart from the music, even the movie does goes on to be a boon to her and mints some money at the box office. Talking about Imran Khan he sure made an impact with his debut movie Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. But, after that he has really found it difficult to catch up with the .petition. Both his previous movies Luck and Kidnapped bombed at the box office. But, then again\u2026it\u2019s the chocolate boy look that people loved and it\u2019s the chocolate boy look that people will get in IHLS. Imran Khan is back in hunt with IHLS. Bollywood has waited quite long for a movie which projects love in a cynical manner yet so positive. Punit has given a fun treatment to the much ridiculed Bollywood romances. Nobody can deny the fact that Bollywood forever has been a domain for romance and love. Yet again the viewers will witness a one of a kind love story which I young, fresh, cheesy and will have all the ingredients of love.

        "title": "'Canadian democracy will be healthier': Elizabeth May on electoral reform | rabble.ca",
        "raw_content": "'Canadian democracy will be healthier': Elizabeth May on electoral reform\nOn June 2, the Liberals agreed to support the NDP's proposal that the electoral reform committee be proportional to the popular vote in the 2015 election. The NDP's proposal ensures that parties will have to collaborate on electoral reform because no one party will have a majority.\nThe Greens, NDP and Liberals support some form proportional representation whereas the Conservatives and Bloc seem to be in favour of the status quo, first-past-the-post voting.\nrabble spoke with Elizabeth May over the telephone about Canadian electoral reform, proportional representation, and what to expect from the electoral reform committee.\nWhy does Canada need electoral reform?\n[The Greens] have believed for a very long time as a party that our current voting system, first-past-the-post, is a perverse voting system and dangerous for Canada. It's perverse because a minority of the voters can elect a majority government, and it's dangerous because of all modern democracies, we're one where a majority of the seats can turn into 100 per cent of the power, and allow that power to centralize in the hands of the prime minister.\nAnd that's unusual, even in other Commonwealth democracies that have the same voting system. A prime minister in the United Kingdom or in Australia doesn't have as much power as the prime minister in Canada because we've overlaid on Westminster parliamentary democracy an adherence to political party rules that more resembles the United States than the UK, Australia, or other Commonwealth countries.\nWe're an anomaly in that the prime minister of Canada can't be removed by [its] parliamentary caucus. Margaret Thatcher didn't lose an election, she was removed by her own caucus. That can't happen in Canada because we've got a system where political parties elect their leaders and the parliamentary caucus can't remove them.\nA prime minister in Canada also, unlike the [president in the] United States, has more power. The Constitution of the United States created separation of powers, so the legislative is completely separate from the executive. In Canada, a prime minister with a majority can, if [they choose] to, have one person control the legislative and the executive. And that's certainly what happened after Stephen Harper.\nIt wasn't Harper all by himself, but it was a trend that started under Prime Minister Pierre-Elliott Trudeau. For the first time under Trudeau, we had something called PMO, the Prime Minister's Office. Such an animal didn't exist until Pierre Trudeau became prime minister [writer's note: the PMO did exist before Trudeau, but was expanded and modified under Trudeau, and which was adopted by his predecessors.]\nUnder Lester B. Pearson, the PMO was not an entity or a power base, it was just a principal secretary. Tom Kent [Lester B. Pearson's Policy Secretary and Coordinator of Programming] once described the PMO under Pearson as a handful of file clerks and stenographers. There was no power base called PMO. And that grew over time from a fairly minor effort to coordinate things within the government under Pierre Trudeau. It grew more under Mulroney and it grew more under and Chr\u00e9tien and then it reached its apex under Harper.\nThe Green Party is calling for a proportional representation. Why would proportional representation be better for Canada and how would it change the way Canada votes?\nWell it wouldn't change much about the way Canadians vote. They'll go into a voting booth and pick the candidate or the party that they want, they'll pick what they want. But the difference is that systems of proportional representation ensure that every vote will count.\nWe want to get away from the perverse result where so many Canadians voters have felt for years that if they're a Conservative voter in a safe Liberal riding, or an NDP voter in a safe Conservative riding, they feel that there's not much point in going out to vote because their vote doesn't count.\nWe're a multi-party country, and we've been a multi-party country since 1920. Since 1920, we've had no fewer than four or five parties that are serious. But we have a multi-party Parliament with a two-party voting system.\nThat's not a voting system. First-past-the-post in a multi-party country basically discourages people from voting because they think their votes don't count. That's why we see the province of Alberta with some of the lowest voting rates of any other province. Rachel Notley was elected with the all-time high vote in the past 20 years and it was still only something like 58 per cent [writer's note: the 2015 Albertan elections saw a 58.1 per cent voter turnout, the highest since 1993.] We get really low voting rates when you think your vote doesn't count.\nThe other thing is that first-past-the-post voting systems elect fewer women, they generate less ethnic diversity, elect fewer Indigenous peoples. The thing I've come to realize about first-past-the-post since I've been in politics, which isn't that long -- I joined the Green Party 10 years ago and I certainly haven't been elected that long -- is that first-past-the-post as a voting system creates incentives for hostility, opposition, mindless partisanship.\nFirst-past-the-post voting systems encourage the wedge issue[s], it certainly encourages strategic voting as a trend, [which] means that parties will do anything possible not to say anything respectful or collaborative about another party if they fear their voting base will turn out to vote for another party.\nIt creates a toxicity around our politics that's really unfortunate, and this does a lot of damage to developing consensus, making progress, working together. All those ideas are part and parcel of voting systems, or more likely to be found in voting systems, that promote consensus. We really need to find consensus-based voting systems as opposed to oppositional, partisan voting systems.\nWhat can we expect from the Liberals on the issue of electoral reform, especially in light of their June 2 decision to back the NDP's proposal to make the committee proportional?\nWe start with a commitment from the Liberals, both a campaign commitment, and then [the commitment] enunciated in the speech from the throne. I think the speech from the throne commitment is even better than their platform commitment, which was just that 2015 would be the last first-past-the-post election. They provided more principle to it in the speech from the throne by saying, in order to ensure that every vote counts, 2015 will be the last first-past-the-post election.\nNow if you're going to make sure every vote counts, you're really looking at a proportional representation styled system. Because preferential voting or ranked ballots are basically just another form of majoritarian voting systems, which like first-past-the post don't ensure that every vote counts. So, the speech from the throne commitment to ensure that every vote counts is quite important.\nIf you look at what kind of legitimacy there is for changing our voting system before the next election, it's important to bear in mind that the NDP also called for the last first-past-the-post [election], although the NDP is the most prescriptive of all the parties in terms of saying that they also want the replacement system to be mixed-member proportional.\nThe Greens of course also said we want to get rid of first-past-the-post, but we said we want [the replacement to be] proportional representation without committing to one of the many options or hybrids of options that are out there.\nBut the key point is that when you add up the votes for all the candidates who either ran under a Liberal, NDP, or Green banner, you get over 63 per cent of the Canadians who voted in the last election [writer's note: 62.6 per cent of Canadian votes were for the Liberals, New Democrats, and Greens.]\nThey voted for a party that made the commitment to make sure that 2015 was the last election held under [a] first-past-the-post [system.] There is legitimacy in a perverse voting system of first-past-the-post even though the Liberals were elected with 39.5 per cent of the popular vote on this issue. [But] as long as they were moving towards proportional representation, they [represent] a majority of Canadians.\nWhat can Canadians expect from the committee over the upcoming months? How will the committee ensure that Canadians are engaged and involved in the process of electoral reform?\nIt's really important that the committee work, and I think we will work in a really respectful, collaborative fashion going forward. We want to really make sure that we're educated first, bearing in mind that the eyes of Canada will be on this committee, at least I hope so. The way we absorb evidence, the way we listen to experts, and the questions we ask the experts are going to be very important. And it's important that Canadians follow that process.\nOf course it's to our disadvantage that we're starting in the summer months. And we don't know for sure yet [who will be on the committee] because of course the committee isn't formed officially: we haven't had our first organizational meeting, we don't even know who the members will be on the committee from the other parties. I'm the only member from the committee that's actually named in the resolution that creates the committee. So there's no doubt I'm on the committee.\nWhat I expect Canadians who are interested in electoral reform will want to watch for is that there will be four different types of consultations that will be going on between now and when the committee report must be in on December 15.\n[The first type of consultation] is the committee hearings themselves, and I'm fairly confident that they'll be live-streamed, that all meeting will be public and televised. I'm pushing that we do some innovative social media things like allow Twitter questions from the public into the meetings. I think that would be a really good way to engage people.\nThe second thing people should watch for is that every MP has been asked to host their own town hall meeting in their own riding to consult with their voters about what system of voting people want.\nThe third type of engagement over the course of the summer is going to be that Minister [of Democratic Institutions] Maryam Monsef and her parliamentary secretary Mark Holland have also said they'll be prepared to travel Canada to listen to Canadians directly themselves.\nAnd then of course there are going to be public meetings of all kinds for people who want to make sure that we take advantage of this. The Green party has held quite a lot of them already. Daniel Green, Deputy Leader for Quebec is doing one tonight in Gatineau, Bruce Hyer [Green Party Deputy Leader in Alberta] [held] one in Victoria, but he's already done them in Calgary and Edmonton. So we're already fanning out across the country trying to share information. I've done them in Vancouver, Kingston, Halifax, and outside of Charlottetown. So there's a lot going on.\nFor Canadians who are engaged, there will be a lot of ways to share your views. One of the things that I think is a real challenge is how we get people who have never been interested in electoral reform to actually learn what first-past-the-post is and learn why proportional representation would be better for our democracy.\nAnd [by the way,] this isn't opinion but [it] empirically clear that Canadian democracy will be healthier when the minority of voters cannot elect a majority government, when we have a system that encourages people to vote, that elects more women and minorities.\nBut how do we connect with people who are not really policy wonks, and particularly democracy wonks, and get people engaged in the process of what we're doing? To do that I think we need to be really innovative in the committee and do things that most committees don't do. But there will be a lot of different ways to get people to engage and a lot of things for people to watch for in their own communities.\nInterested in contributing to this series on proportional representation?

In fact, it is safe to say that neither the ITIL IT Service Management (ITSM) processes nor the BSM functions that leverage ITSM can be efficiently carried out without accurate configuration and dependency information. Lacking a clear understanding of the ways in which hardware and software assets interconnect, and which ones depend on others, IT organizations must resort to managing today's complex business services via trial and error. Gathering and maintaining accurate configuration information, particularly as it relates to applications and their dependencies, is a significant challenge for most IT organizations. This paper focuses on Application Discovery and Dependency Mapping, a relatively recent enterprise management technology which directly targets the challenges related to application configuration management.",

        "title": "The taxonomy, phylogeny and impact of Mycosphaerella species on eucalypts in South-Western Australia - Murdoch Research Repository",
        "raw_content": "The taxonomy, phylogeny and impact of Mycosphaerella species on eucalypts in South-Western Australia\nMaxwell, Aaron (2004) The taxonomy, phylogeny and impact of Mycosphaerella species on eucalypts in South-Western Australia. PhD thesis, Murdoch University.\nPlantation eucalypts are a recent and rapidly growing industry in Australia, and will eventually replace the logging of old-growth forests. Over 40% of these plantations have been established in south-western Australia, where more than 160 000 ha of Eucalyptus globulus plantations now occur. In the early 1900s, this species was widely planted as an exotic in South Africa, but succumbed to severe pest (Gonipterus sp.) and disease (Mycosphaerella sp.) problems. Similarly, in south-western Australia E. globulus is an exotic species, but with the additional threat that it is planted adjacent to indigenous eucalypts, which increases the possibility of pests and pathogens switching between closely related eucalypt hosts. Over the past ten years, there have been anecdotal reports of increasing levels of Mycosphaerella leaf disease (MLD) in E. globulus plantations in south-western Australia. This increase in disease level is of concern to the industry. To date there have been no comprehensive studies into the taxonomy, biogeography and population genetics of MLD in south-western Australia. This thesis investigated the impact of MLD in south-western Australia with a focus on its impact, taxonomy, biogeography and population genetics. It is the first study worldwide to quantify the relative impact of different Mycosphaerella species in a regional plantation estate.\nA survey of pest, disease and nutritional disorders (Chapter 2) found that MLD was the most severe and frequently occurring, single taxonomic health threat to 1 and 2-year-old E. globulus plantations in south-western Australia. For the first time, this survey identified and quantified the impact of pest and disease damage to E. globulus plantations in the region. There were differences in the disease levels between plantations and this was due to initial Mycosphaerella species composition and inoculum level, and local climatic conditions favourable for disease, rather than to the provenance planted or the nutritional status of the individual plantations.\nThe survey for Mycosphaerella pathogens of eucalypts (Chapter 3) identified two new species of Mycosphaerella (M. ambiphylla and M. aurantia) and extended the known geographic range of eight other species (M. cryptica, M. gregaria, M. lateralis, M. marksii, M. mexicana , M. nubilosa, M. parva and M. suberosa). Of these: M. lateralis and M. mexicana were new records for Australia; and M. gregaria, M. nubilosa and M. parva were new records for Western Australia. A new anamorph, Phaeophloeospora ambiphylla was described and linked to M. ambiphylla. The occurrence of these new species and disease records in south-western Australia is significant for the plantation-eucalypt industry worldwide. The finding of two new species highlighted the need to quantify the disease impact of these on eucalypt plantations; and the extension of the range the remaining species raised important quarantine issues, concerned with the movement of plant material between regions and countries.\nThe biogeographical investigation of Mycosphaerella (Chapter 4) identified that the most widespread and serious cause of MLD in south-western Australia is M. cryptica. In addition to occurring on the exotic E. globulus, it also occurs on two of the three important indigenous forestry eucalyptus species in this region. That is, on E. diversicolor, and E. marginata, but not on Corymbia calophylla. In terms of the plantation estate of E. globulus, however, M. nubilosa is the most widespread pathogen. The current study found that MLD on E. globulus is a complex of several different species, whereas, on E. diversicolor and E. marginata it is caused by only M. cryptica. Two species, M. cryptica and M. marksii were found commonly on adult E. globulus leaves. Although M. cryptica was the most frequent and serious cause of disease on adult leaves, M. marksii levels appear to be increasing and the future epidemiology of this pathogen should be closely monitored. There is some concern that these two MLD species could become an economically important problem on adult leaves of E. globulus. At present severe levels of MLD is significantly more common on juvenile than on adult foliage.\nThe phylogenetic analysis (Chapter 5), based on ITS rDNA sequences from the present study and those obtained from GenBank accessions, found that Mycosphaerella is an assemblage of largely polyphyletic anamorph genera. Ten distinct clades emerged from the analysis. With the exception of the Dissoconium and the M. recutita clade, which comprised of two and one species respectively, none were comprised entirely of one anamorph genus alone. The anamorph genera represented were often dispersed across more than one clade, indicating that these anamorphs have arisen separately in different phylogenetic lineages. Cercospora, Stenella and Uwebraunia anamorphs each occurred in more than one separate clade. Although on the basis of rDNA sequence data Mycosphaerella appeared mostly monophyletic there was some evidence that the Mycosphaerella genus may be polyphyletic. This was particularly evident from the Dissoconium clade which grouped as closely to the outgroup Botryosphaeria taxon as it did with the remaining Mycosphaerella species. It was argued that a multi-gene phylogeny, which includes sequencing many species in other genera aligned with Mycosphaerella, is required in order to satisfactorily answer the question of whether Mycosphaerella is truly monophyletic.\nThe phylogenetic analysis also showed that the taxonomy of Mycosphaerella based on ITS sequence data needs further clarification. Some species that are morphologically distinct, such as M. vespa and M. molleriana, shared identical ITS sequences. Other morphologically distinct species differed by as little as one or two nucleotides. Yet in other cases, the sequence variation amongst isolates from the same species differed substantially. Much of this variation in M. cryptica and other species was attributed to poorly edited sequences that had been lodged with GenBank. It was postulated that although a part of the remaining variation reflected the existence of cryptic species, some was likely to be genuine intra-species differences. It was concluded that further genes need to be sequenced, and more standardised cultural studies conducted in order to define species boundaries within Mycosphaerella.\nBased on the ITS rDNA sequence data, two different molecular methods for the identification of Mycosphaerella species from eucalypts were developed (Chapter 6). The first of these was a PCR-RFLP method that enabled the identification of Mycosphaerella species present on eucalypts in south-western Australia. A key is provided, which enabled the identification of species on a combination of PCR-RFLP DNA fragment migration patterns and a small number of morphological features. This key enables the identification of Mycosphaerella species more easily than keys that rely on morphological features alone. Therefore, this has made it easier for non-Mycosphaerella specialists to identify species from this genus. The second molecular method developed for the identification of Mycosphaerella species was that of primers that selectively amplify the DNA of M. cryptica and M. nubilosa, the two most important causes of MLD (Chapter 6). This will allow the rapid identification of these two species by non-specialists in Mycosphaerella taxonomy. The primers from the current study will also enable early diagnosis of the possible causal organism of MLD in a plantation. Once the use of these primers for amplifying DNA from leaf tissue has been optimised, they will also facilitate studies into the early infection process of M cryptica and M. nubilosa. For example, the presence of the pathogen may be detected prior to the appearance of symptoms. Studies may be conducted to determine the length of a hemi-biotrophic phase, and the extent of tissue colonisation both spatially and temporally, beyond the necrotic lesion in these two Mycosphaerella species. Previously, such studies have been hampered by the slow growth rate of these fungi in culture and the lack of media that would allow their selective isolation and detection by directly plating diseased and non-diseased host tissue.\nThis study has clearly indicated that Mycosphaerella species are the major disease threat to E. globulus plantations in Western Australia. It has also shown that over the relatively short period of time of less than ten years the number of species recorded has increased from three to ten, and that disease severity has increased in plantations. It is therefore critical to continue the research on this genus in order to understand the biology, epidemiology and population genetics of this pathogen. This is necessary in order to inform tree selection and silvicultural practise that will minimise the future impact of MLD. This is particularly important if the industry moves towards clonal and hybrid forestry as has occurred elsewhere in the world. This study has laid the foundations for future research on this disease through the elucidation of the taxonomy of Mycosphaerella in south-western Australia and by providing some important molecular tools for its diagnosis and further study.\nDell, Bernard and Hardy, Giles",

        "raw_content": "Arun K Singh, M.D.\nDr. Arun K. Singh, a native of Patna, India, was born in 1944. As a child, the future physician suffered several debili- tating injuries including the breaking of both of his hands at different times, with one of these accidents resulting in the tempo- rary paralysis of his right hand \u2014 not the most auspicious start to a career in heart surgery. Much of his recovery could be attributed to his mother's attention. Singh left his homeland in 1967, after graduation from medical school. He trained at Columbia University, the Great Ormond Street Hospital in London (where he honed his skills in pediatric heart surgery), and Brown University. He has practiced at Rhode Island Hospital since 1975. From humble beginnings he has achieved great accomplish- ments. Dr. Singh has published over 150 scientific papers, many of which would dumfound most academics outside the field like his 2006 co-written paper in the Journal of Cardiothorac Vascular Anesthesia: \u201cIntraoperative Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography to Assess Aortic Valve Stenosis.\u201d He has made dozens of presentations at prestigious medical gatherings around the globe \u2014 London, Rio de Janeiro, and Geneva, to name a few. He has authored, edited, and co-edited many books and contributed insightful chapters to textbooks in the field. This cornucopia of writing and research is trumped only by the incredible 18,000 surgeries he has performed on adults and children predominantly through the Lifespan system at Rhode Island Hospital. Most of these operations were open heart pro- cedures. The mathematics of so many intricate procedures over a forty year career are a testament to a physician so dedicated and haunted by his own childhood disabilities that he could never slow down. His lifetime awards, acco- lades, and prizes are fit for a General's uniform. The American Heart Association honored him as a \"Hero at Heart.\" The state Medical Society extolled Dr. Singh with the Dr. Charles L. Hill Award for excel- lence. The Rhode Island Hospital Medical Staff, a group of his peers, singled him out for the first annual Milton Hamolsky Outstanding Physician Award. Rhode Island Monthly magazine has proclaimed him the state's \"Top Doc\" for twenty years in a row, and Rhode Island Hospital and Lifespan presented him with a lifetime achievement designa- tion in 2014. Dr. Singh is a Fellow of numerous honorary medical groups, among them: American College of Surgeons, American College of Cardiology, Royal College of Surgeons, and the American Heart Association. He has been a Professor of Surgery at Brown Medical School since 1991. His hospital appointments and committee assignments are legion. Dr. Singh is also a philan- thropist. His charitable giving, like his resume, straddles the world stage: from local food pan- tries to schools in rural India for underprivileged children. He and his wife Barbara have been mar- ried for almost fifty years. They have two sons Ari and Michael and three grandchildren. Dr Arun Singh retired from active surgery in 2016 although he maintains a blistering array of talks and research articles. He is also writing a book entitled Yo'ur Heart, My Handy which docu- ments his career and the interac- tion between himself and his patients. He has literally earned the heartfelt thanks of all Rhode Islanders.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Bike hangar\u2019 scheme aims to increase cycling in Salford\nCyclists in Salford will find it easier to store their bikes securely in residential areas, thanks to the introduction of 11 new bike hangars.\nThe hangars, which have been placed on streets where residents have little or no internal storage, are part of a pilot scheme by Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) and Salford City Council.\nThe hangars can hold up to six bicycles, offering a \u2018secure solution to long-term cycle parking\u2019 \u2013 as well as an \u2018effective way to protect bikes from tough weather conditions, theft and vandalism\u2019.\nThey are the height, width and length of a small car and take up about the same amount of room on the street as a car parking space. They can be placed either on the road or pavement.\nResidents who want to sign up for the scheme must pay a \u00a325 key deposit and an annual fee, which will be subsidised at \u00a320 per year for the first two years, going up to \u00a340 per year thereafter.\nCouncillor Roger Jones, Salford City Council\u2019s executive support for transport, said: \u201cThe bike hanger scheme is a new way to make it possible for residents to own a bike who may not have the storage for it.\n\u201cFeedback so far has been positive and we hope the trial is a huge success.\u201d\nLeona Sanders, a member of the bike hangar scheme, said: \u201cMy husband and I both signed up to the scheme once we knew the bike hangars would be built on our doorstep.\n\u201cWe live on the second floor and having to take our bikes up and down was a bit of a nightmare. So this scheme has been brilliant and has made a real difference to both of us.\n\u201cIt\u2019s good value for money and straightforward to sign up.\u201d\nThe initiative has received backing from Chris Boardman, Greater Manchester cycling and walking commissioner.\nChris Boardman said: \u201cBike parking at home is a crucially important factor in getting more people to ride. If an everyday parking solution is not convenient, secure and low-cost, they will simply decide it\u2019s too much hassle.\n\u201cBike hangars are a fantastic addition to residential streets \u2013 I\u2019m sure thousands of Greater Manchester residents would like one outside their house. I\u2019ll be following the Salford pilot with interest and I hope that the idea catches on across the city-region.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Danbury Mint 1966 Batman Batmobile Scale Diecast Model\nThese are brochures of the Batmobile that almost was. A friend of mine had called to me to let me know that Danbury Mint was going to make a 1/24 scale 1966 Batmobile, and that I could preorder it. He gave me a phone number which I had called, and they promptly sent me a preorder form, which I filled out and sent off. Along with the form was a brochure.\nNeedless to say, I couldn't wait to get it. But months had passed and I hadn't heard anymore about it. Till I recieved a letter from Danbury Mint saying that they were unable to produce the 1966 version. They sent also a new form to preorder a different comic book version. (which now, to me, looks like the Johnny Lighting version which came out a few years later). I have heard that while George Barris gave the go ahead to produce the car, Warner Bros. said no. I believe Polar Lights / Jonny Lightning had a similiar problem.\nThe brochure is so well done, it's really hard to tell if it is pictures of the real car, or a pre-production one-off build diecast, except for the interior, which does appear to be the real car. The diecast replica would have been $ 149.00 (and well worth the price).\nNow Available ! 1:25 1966 Batmobile\nI am sure many people, like me, were disappointed that Danbury Mint was not allowed to make the replica. But I give them two well deserved thumbs up for making a serious attempt to bring this car to all of us.\nClick here for more plastic Batmobile Model Kits\nClick Here to see an excellent review of the Batmobile Danbury did make!",

        "title": "Swimming And Boating Safety | What You Need To Know",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blog \u00bb Tips For Swimming And Boating Safely With Your Family\nHuman beings as a species are pathetically incompetent in the water. Compare the best human swimmer with even the worst fish and you\u2019ll see just what we mean. With this in mind, it\u2019s essential to consciously practice a conservative attitude of respect and caution if and whenever you\u2019re swimming. Here\u2019s our guide to swimming and boating safety to keep your head above water.\nHere are our top three tips for keeping yourself and your children safe while swimming.\nMake Sure Your Children Are Supervised\nChildren should never be allowed to swim unsupervised by adults anywhere. MedlinePlus reports that drowning can happen quickly and silently in as little as 2 inches of water. When it comes to young children, most incidences of accidental drowning occur in residential pools. It may sound morbid, but you must not be so naive as to think that this could not possibly happen to you. Adults supervising children should always be alert and aware of where all of the children for whom they\u2019re responsible are at all times. Many young children who drown in their home\u2019s pool were purportedly only out of their parent\u2019s sight for as little as five minutes before their unfortunate deaths. Also, on that note, if you have a pool, it\u2019s important to make sure and secure it with the appropriate barriers.\nAvoid Blind, Head-First Diving\nDo not dive headfirst into the shallow or murky water, or water of uncertain depth. Diving in shallow water can cause injuries and drowning. Murky water diving is particularly dangerous because you can\u2019t see how deep and or shallow the water into which you\u2019re diving is. It is best to enter the water feet-first. Doing so may be less adventurous but it\u2019s undoubtedly significantly safer.\nLearn Emergency Medical Procedures\nIf you have children, it\u2019s a good idea to learn basic first aid and CPR. Knowing the basic rescue measures to take during an emergency can mean the difference between life and death, especially for families with residential pools. If you\u2019re interested in learning more you can register for a Red Cross certified home pool safety, water safety, or first aid and CPR/AED to learn all the basics and give yourself some piece-of-mind.\nBoating is great fun but, like any water-based activity, needs to be done with care. Here are our top three tips for staying safe while you\u2019re out boating.\nIf you\u2019re going to be in and around the water, you must learn how to swim. You should abide by this safety rule even if you have no intention of leaving the boat. Worst case, you\u2019re better safe than sorry!\nYou should always take a look at your local weather forecast before setting sail. TV and radio forecasts can be a good source of information. If you notice the clouds are starting to get dark or that the winds are suddenly changing, be smart and head home.\nKeep Your Common Sense Common\nYou must, when boating, vigilantly keep your wits about you. This means always going at a safe speed at or below the speed limit. It always means staying alert, and steering clear of large floating vessels and other watercraft, especially when their ability to stop or turn is restricted. Finally, you should be respectful of buoys and other navigational aids. They\u2019re there to keep you safe and are meant to be obeyed!\nYou can\u2019t overestimate the importance of protecting your skin. This goes for both swimming and boating. You should limit the amount of direct sunlight you receive between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., plus you should always either wear protective clothing or sunscreen with a protection factor of at least 15.\nLou DeVoto has successfully handled negligent, swim-related lawsuits before, reaching a nearly two million dollar wrongful death settlement in a tragic 2014 case.

        "raw_content": "By Dillon Johnson\nGrowing up locally, I was excited and nervous to discover where I\u2019d be placed for my teaching residency. There are many things you may think that you know about a place until you actually spend significant time in it. Sadly, the reputation of Oroville I conceived as a child revolved around crime, drugs and poverty. To this day, when someone says they live in Oroville to someone who lives outside the area there seems to be undertone of shame or embarrassment because of this reputation. But when I found I was placed at Oroville I was thrilled because my personal opinion of Oroville has gradually changed over time, I no longer view it as the same place as I did growing up. As an aspiring educator, Oroville has everything I\u2019m looking for in refining my teaching praxis.\nMy dad, brother, and I spent a lot of time hunting, fishing, and golfing growing up. Locally, the best place to do that was in the Oroville area, as it is home to the approximately 12,000 acre Oroville Wildlife Refuge near the Feather River and Thermalito Afterbay, the second largest reservoir in California, Lake Oroville, and our favorite golf course located on Kelly Ridge, which overlooks the lake. Much of the time I saw the absolute beauty of the areas immediately surrounding Oroville area, without spending much time in the actual town. These experiences will live with me forever and I owe that to Oroville. Unfortunately, it still took me some time to realize that Oroville truly had an undeserving bad reputation.\nA year ago I had the opportunity to work in downtown Oroville. Much of the poor reputation that I still held regarding Oroville was washed away at this time. I was the market manager for the Wednesday Night Farmers Market that took place in the middle of historic downtown Oroville. I met so many people with such genuine belief in their community. A farmers market is an absolutely amazing opportunity to learn about community members. Many small businesses and organizations volunteered time helping promote and facilitate the market. I found many people were dedicated to their community and took pride in the place they called home.\nI recently had the opportunity to meet with Wilma Compton, the interim president of the Oroville Chamber of Commerce (OCC). She enlightened me to many aspects of the Oroville area. The main goal of the OCC is to advocate for business and promote economic vitality. This doesn\u2019t directly align with promoting education, but many of the businesses work with students and youth to build community ties. One of the most interesting things she mentioned aligned with my newfound notion of Oroville, she claimed that \u201cOroville does an amazing job at hiding all of its cool stuff\u201d (W. Compton, personal communication, June 21, 2018). I couldn\u2019t agree more, the small city has a lot to offer. She believes the \u201cheartbeat\u201d of the community lies in its physical beauty, access to the outdoors and the area\u2019s overall livability.\nOroville isn\u2019t without its problems. It faces many similar issues that rural communities face regarding poverty and education. Less than 10% of the population holds a college degree, and over 25% of the population lives in poverty. This is significant in comparison to California average of over 30% and under 15%, respectively. In addition, the median household income in Oroville is extremely low in comparison to the rest of California, at $35,457 and $63,783, respectively (Untied States Census, 2018). Oroville also has a significant amount of welfare recipients, which isn\u2019t uncommon in rural area that has economic fluctuation due to the influx and outflow of skilled workers because of large projects or opportunities such as the Oroville dam.\nI understand that rural communities like Oroville are faced with some obstacles, are victims of oppression, and lack some of the perspective that is gained in larger communities. I also believe that due to the nature of rural life, there are many positive aspects that people fail to notice. Ultimately, my hope for rural education is to identify and build upon what I view as natural strengths and mitigate the natural weaknesses.\nOne of the natural strengths of a rural community is the potential for place-based education (PBE). Smith (2002) argues that PBE is a possible remedy to the problems rural education faces, as it provides insight to local employment opportunities and grants students a greater sense of purpose in their community and education. Woodhouse and Knapp (2000) elaborate, \u201c\u2026one of the most compelling reasons to adopt place-based education is to provide students with the knowledge and experiences needed to actively participate in the democratic process\u201d (p. 4). Ultimately, PBE allows students to promote their own curiosity and become educated about the natural world, which Smith (2002) states all children have an innate interest in.\nOroville is an absolutely amazing area to practice place-based education, and science is an excellent subject area to effectively do so. The Feather River supports a rich biodiversity of native flora and fauna, and provides a perfect backdrop for an ecology course. The Oroville Dam is a wonderful location to learn about hydropower, natural resource economics, and human impact. Oroville is also home to the Feather River Fish Hatchery, which allows students to explore ecosystems and reproduction biology.\nEdmondson and Butler (2010) state \u201c\u2026the statistics and problems that urban and rural communities face share many similarities\u201d (p. 151).I feel that those \u201cproblems\u201d are actually easier to resolve in a rural environment. Much of rural America is working class. I believe with that comes the lack of overentitlement and privilege that seems to be all too common in modern America. I believe growing up in a rural community organically fosters resilience and appreciation for aspects in life such as relationships, not assets. Theobald and Wickencamp (2017) claim that \u201cwe\u2019ve made the economic question primary in this country, and that represents an obstacle to anyone attempting to engender deep level thinking about the educational enterprise\u201d (p. 136). I view rural education as the easier avenue to advocate for this concept along with social justice by the natural amicability that exists in rural communities. There are deep-rooted values in rural areas, some families never plan to leave rural America, others have consciously moved from urban areas to obtain a greater sense of community and relation to these values - although they are knowingly sacrificing a higher income.\nUpon reading into how educational philosophers and practitioners view rural America, it bothers me that they don\u2019t seem to mention any of its strengths. I want to teach in a rural community. I grew up in one and have always valued that. It is part of my identity and I believe many people underestimate the advantages of the strong sense of community a rural area has the ability to develop. My positive outlook on rural communities mainly is founded upon the potential to make a meaningful difference. It may be selfish of me, but in urban areas I feel an overwhelming sense of insignificance and lack of purpose. In a rural community, there is often a shared sense of struggle, as well as common goals, and with that more meaningful relationships are created. I look forward to taking on the challenges of rural education faces and bring to light some of the benefits that I think are overlooked all too often.\nCalifornia Department of Fish and Wildlife: Oroville Wildlife Area.

        "title": "Which Do You Know: Bieber\u2019s Favourite Colour? Or Your MPP? | Sapience Film",
        "raw_content": "Shortly after our most recent provincial election, I heard a disturbing fact on the radio. The announcer claimed that more eligible voters know Justin Bieber\u2019s favourite colour than the name of their MPP. Whether or not this is actually accurate, the idea that this is quite probable is very concerning.\nIt got me wondering: How have people become more engaged with celebrities and Hollywood trivia than what is occurring in their own country? Why does Perez Hilton probably get more daily hits than most local newspapers? How is it that we as a society have become so disengaged from politics? When did we stop believing that as a collective, we have the ability to change and shape the way our country is run? I\u2019m not talking about the many people who do still believe this (and thank god for them), but I am thinking of the more than half the Ontario population who are so disconnected from politics that they felt no reason to participate in this past provincial election.\nWhen Barack Obama was running for President of the United States only a few years ago, almost every single Canadian I talked to was, in some way or another, following the U.S. Presidential elections. On the night he was inaugurated, my Facebook was inundated with quotations of inspiring comments from the first black American President. I recall wishing that Canadians would one day soon be as inspired by one of our own leaders as we were about our neighbour downstairs. Fast forward a few years to our 2011 Federal Election, which saw Jack Layton and his NDP team make history by surging ahead to become the official opposition. Although voter turnout was still a dismal 61% of the population, there was clear evidence that Canadians wanted change. Jack Layton became a political superstar, especially so for many young Canadians, who seemed to be able to relate to the NDP\u2019s platform more than any of the other parties\u2019.\nWhen Mr. Layton unexpectedly passed away later this same year, social media was again inundated with memorials and inspiring quotes from the influential leader. I saw Jack Layton as somewhat of a Canadian Obama, one who had the charisma to draw people in, but also the genuine care and passion to really get things done. With the upcoming provincial election looming, I had high hopes that my fellow young Canadians would turn out in droves to support their beliefs, voting for issues at the forefront of politics. Encouraging youth (age 18-24) in particular to vote has been a challenge for years now, as historically, they comprise the lowest voter turnouts. I felt hopeful that Mr. Layton, more than anyone, could increase voter turnout among young Canadians.\nUnfortunately, we broke a new record here in Ontario during this past provincial election, and not in a positive way. The election saw the lowest voter turnout since Confederation (1867). According to estimates from Elections Ontario, a record-low ratio of 49.2% of eligible voters cast a ballot in the 2011 provincial election. If you take a closer look at the numbers, you\u2019ll discover that the Liberals earned 37.5% of the vote, which means they managed to return to power with the support of only about 18% of eligible voters. Regardless of which party you support, that number is disconcerting.\nA look at some of the reasoning behind those who failed to vote is even more disturbing. Excuses ranged from \u201cThe parties are all the same anyway\u201d to \u201cWhat difference would it have made if I voted?\u201d The difference would have been huge. For one, perhaps we would have a government with a majority, which itself is huge, regardless of what party you support. We should all be looking at the legitimacy of our provincial government when they hold less than a quarter of the population\u2019s support. We live in a democratic country, but that number doesn\u2019t speak of democracy.\nSo how do we convince more people to vote? How do we convince the apathetic individuals that not only is it their right to vote, but also their civic responsibility? How do we get the message across that because we live in a democratic country, we have the right to vote in every election, and we should most definitely exercise this right? People across the globe are still fighting each and every day for something that so many of us take for granted.\nI used to wish that voting be mandatory, that every single eligible voter be made to vote because it was the law. But recently I took a step back. I realized this is not the best option. These people who don\u2019t vote would do nothing beneficial for the system if they\u2019re so uninvolved as to not even know the name of their MPP or what each running party stands for. The problem needs to be addressed at a much deeper level. We need to ensure citizens are not only interested in issues, but also informed.\nMost importantly, this transformation needs to happen at the youth level. We need to garner more interest from an early age, encouraging young people to become involved in issues that are important to them and to keep informed on matters occurring throughout the country. Just as the U.S. 2008 Presidential election targeted youth, Canada also needs to instill some large-scale programs to do the same, but not just temporarily. This should be embedded in school curriculum and in initiatives that attract young people to the causes. The movement needs to be led by local governments and schools and also by non-profit organizations. We need to do as much as possible to ensure that people, youth included, understand that voting is not only a right, but also a responsibility.\nAs Jack Layton believed, young people in this country are one of the most important groups to listen to, draw inspiration from, and encourage. In his final letter to the country, he specifically targeted young Canadians, saying that we \u201cneed to be at the heart of our economy, our political life, and our plans for the present and the future.\u201d We are the generation that will face some of our country\u2019s, and world\u2019s, greatest challenges. Mr. Layton felt that the energy, vision, and passion for justice shown by young Canadians are what our country needs today. If Mr. Layton believed we have the power to change our country, why does it seem we don\u2019t believe in ourselves?\nOh, and for the record, Bieber\u2019s favourite is purple.\nTags: 2008 election 2011 provincial election apathy Barack Obama Canadian politics celebrity gossip engagement hollywood Jack layton Justin Bieber Liberals MPP NDP politics purple voter turnout voters voting youth",

        "raw_content": "Warm water vapour in the sooty outflow from a luminous carbon star\nAuthors: Decin, L. et al.\nThe detection of circumstellar water vapour around the ageing carbon star IRC +10216 challenged the current understanding of chemistry in old stars, because water was predicted to be almost absent in carbon-rich stars. Several explanations for the water were postulated, including the vaporization of icy bodies (comets or dwarf planets) in orbit around the star, grain surface reactions, and photochemistry in the outer circumstellar envelope. With a single water line detected so far from this one carbon-rich evolved star, it is difficult to discriminate between the different mechanisms proposed. Here we report the detection of dozens of water vapour lines in the far-infrared and sub-millimetre spectrum of IRC +10216 using the Herschel satellite. This includes some high-excitation lines with energies corresponding to ~1000 K, which can be explained only if water is present in the warm inner sooty region of the envelope. A plausible explanation for the warm water appears to be the penetration of ultraviolet photons deep into a clumpy circumstellar envelope. This mechanism also triggers the formation of other molecules, such as ammonia, whose observed abundances are much higher than hitherto predicted.\nHerschel detection explains the origin of water in a carbon star",

Hastings (D-Tinley Park) released the following statement in response to Gov. Bruce Rauner\u2019s budget address:\n\u201cThis is the fourth budget address under Gov. Bruce Rauner. Two of his budgets resulted in state courts dictating our state budget. Last year\u2019s budget required the General Assembly to work together in a bipartisan manner to override his veto. So this year it comes as no surprise that his budget is more than $2.5 billion out of balance. I expect the legislature to be force to once again pass a budget without his help this year due to his inability to work with legislators from both parties.\u201d",

The first is to work toward solving mathematical problems arising in industrial applications. The second is to search for areas of potential mathematically oriented collaboration and cooperation between academia and industry and then to work toward realizing this potential. The first such workshop was held at Oxford University in 1968. Study Group Workshops operate as follows. First, a broad research theme or area is selected. Then, with regard to this theme or area, a number of researchers from other fields, including people from industry, present to a group of mathematicians particular unsolved mathematical problems that those researchers have confronted in their work. (These problems are selected according to the criterion that they exhibit the potential to be cast as mathematical problems.) The participating mathematicians then may choose to collaborate with any of the presenters to work toward solving their problem. Often, this work does not simply consist of applying a pre-existing framework but, instead, first requires the construction of the proper mathematical formulation of the problem under consideration. Generally, these collaborations last for approximately one week. In some cases, the proposed problems are solved during this designated period of collaboration. In many other cases, however, only the first steps toward a solution are made during this period, and afterward, perhaps under a contract agreed to by the participating parties, a longer-term collaboration is entered into. Of course, there are also cases in which no concrete solution is reached. However, even cases of that kind cannot be regarded as \"failures.\" First, even if no solution is reached, this kind of collaboration provides mathematicians with valuable first-hand experience in dealing with the problems confronted in industry and other academic fields. Also, for the researchers who propose a problem, there is something gained if this problem can be posed in a well-defined mathematical form, even if a solution is not reached in the short term. Finally, for participating graduate students and post-doctoral researchers, the opportunity to experience the process of searching for solutions to the wide range of problems encountered in these collaborations allows them the chance to broaden the scope of their appreciation and interests, while also opening many career paths for them. Since the first study group workshop at Oxford back in 1968, it has been followed up by a growing number of universities in the United States, Europe, Asia- Pacific Region and India. One reason behind this trend is the growing view that Study Group Workshops and long-term internships are the main pillars of the effort to promote collaboration between academic-based mathematicians and industry-based researchers \u2013 if not the main pillars of this collaboration itself.\nInstitute of Mathematics for Industry, Kyushu University\nGraduate School of Mathematical Sciences, The University of Tokyo\nJSPS A3 Foresight Program, The University of Tokyo\nLeading Graduate Course for Frontiers of Mathematical Sciences and Physics (FMSP)\nOrganizing committe by\nShu Tezuka, Chair, Kyushu University\nDaisuke Tagami, Chair, Kyushu University\nMasahiro Yamamoto, The University of Tokyo\n\u00a9 SGW2017, Kyushu University All rights reserved.",

        "title": "Why are we seeing an epidemic of ADD ?",
        "raw_content": "6. Why are we seeing an epidemic of ADD ?\nLet's look at why we believe there has been an outbreak of ADD. And please, if you see yourself in one or more of the following, please do not let guilt plague you. No one taught us these things. And if there is a problem with genetics, obviously, you couldn't choose yours anymore than we could choose ours (and we have two children with ADD/dyslexia). Just see the following as a neutral list.\nOne of the major reasons for the behaviors known as ADD is the lack of right-left brain integration. The two halves of the brain must coordinate the signals sent by the eyes, the ears and the other senses. Absent good coordination, the person cannot perceive events as others do, and often exhibits the symptoms known as ADD. Much of this coordination development of the brain halves takes place during the first 12 months of life, especially as the child crawls, and then on as the child goes through the first 7 years of life.\nStarting from the earliest precipitators:\nDe-volving Genetics. Human knowledge is growing, but genetically, the pool is deteriorating, not evolving as evolutionists say. If a father carries the genes for dyslexia and the mom does not, the children are very likely to pickup on the father's genes and also have dyslexia. In 70-80% of the families we see, genetics plays a pre-disposing role. That's one of the reasons we use a whole-family program.\nIncrease smoking, drinking and drug abuse among women. The \"You've Come a Long Way, Baby\" slogan has caused a lot of \"You're really hurting your baby, Baby\". Smoking causes a substantially lower oxygen content in the blood of the mom, and thus the embryo and fetus. Moms are literally suffocating their babies. While we can substantially help these, they take longer to get off of meds than others. Also if the father did drugs, smoke or drank before impregnating the woman, his sperm may have been negatively altered, passing those deficiencies on to the baby.\nIncreased use of baby swings, walkers and play-pens. These restrict a baby's movements which are essential to good physical actions, especially crawling and thus mental wiring development.\nEncouraging a baby to walk too soon. Again, the longer the crawl time (within reason), the better for left-right brain coordination. It seems to be a bit of a status or ego-stroker to brag that one's baby walked at 8 months. Encourage babies to crawl until at least 11 months.\nLack of physical activity in preschool children. The average child watches 6,000 hours of TV by the time he or she is 7 years old. TV is a brain suspender, a hypnotic, and not a brain stimulator. It takes PHYSICAL ACTION to create a neural pathway.\nBehavioral emulation. Character behavior on TV, videos and computer games, often violent and immoral becomes the mental pattern embedded in a child's mind. Thus the child will respond to his or her environment in accordance with the patterns he or she has seen depicted.\nBusyness of parents. Often as busy parents, our children often suffer attention deficit disorder, a deficit of attention by the parents. Oft times the kids will act out just to get their busy parents' attention. An interesting, but sad side note is that it seems some of the highest percentages of children on medications occur in more affluent suburbs. Is this because the parents have access to conventional medical care and insurance, or because they're too busy to want something more lasting, more permanent in results, or is it because they are used to dealing with their problems with medications such as Prozac or Valium? Hmmm?\nOver promotion of ADD as a main stream condition. Studies done ~12 years ago showed that 3-5 percent of school age children exhibit ADD-like behaviors. Of the 70 million school age children that means that ~4 million children exhibit the symptoms. A potentially huge market for pharmaceuticals. So companies like Novartis (makers of Ritalin), makers of Dexedrine, Cylert, Adderall began heavily promoting psychotropics as the \"one-pill-cures-all\" fix for ADD. \"Grass root\" non-profits such as C.H.A.D.D. were funded by the pharmaceutical companies with the inevitable result that they began to promote psychotropics. The American Psychiatric Association (also funded in large part by the pharmaceutical companies) began to promote psychotropics as the solution for ADD. With billions in revenues, hundreds of millions of dollars has been spent promoting awareness of ADD in the American society with the consequent promotion of psychotropics. The sad, but inevitable result is that 90% of the world's market for Ritalin is in the USA.\nSchools and Teachers mandating psychotropics. [I know I'm getting into a real hot political hot potato here, but let me press on because it is real - but please, we're not anti-school. We empathize and work together with many wonderful teachers who understand our program and what we offer. It's just lack of knowledge.] It is a sad, but real commentary that many (not all) schools are promoting psychotropics as the sole fix for ADD-like behavior. If a child is misbehaving, rather than delving into what is taking place in the home, the mental development of the child, etc., many parents that have called us have stated how vigorously one or more individuals from the school promoted medications as the fix for the child's behavior. The parents were looked down on by the school staff for not being willing to medicate their children. In some states like Michigan (and it is being requested in California), the schools have the right to medicate a misbehaving/distractible child without the parents permission or knowledge. In order to do so, of course, they have to place the label of ADD on the child, whether or not the child has True ADD, and whether or not the child may have one or more of the other causes of ADD-like behavior. An agent for the Drug Enforcement Agency was lamenting to our staff when we tested his child, how the very controlled substances that he conducts sting operations for, the school was trying to persuade him to put his child on. It just didn't make sense to him [nor to us].\nSo what are the most common drugs prescribed for ADD?",

        "raw_content": "Junior Boys Vs. Caribou\nBirthday (Manitoba Mix) is a gorgeous, wistful tune taken from the bonus disc that comes with the US version of this album. You probably already know that these Canadians have made a splash with this debut. It's blend of very modern dance music (you'll see a lot of mentions of glitchy and Timbaland in reviews) with the classic melodies and sounds of the best of '80s synthpop. The original is a lush synth pop song that reminds me a bit of The Postal Service - it's the melancholy melody. Caribou (nee Manitoba) keeps the songs beauty of a hook and grimes up everything around it. The beats pound harder, there's static-y scratchy noises, and some cool windchime bells. The rest of the second disc is rounded out by a Fennesz mix of \"Last Exit\", another version of this tune called \"Unbirthday\" and \"A Certain Association\".\nFunky Friday - Dance To The Music\nI played the 2 disc Essential Sly & The Family Stone at work today - it's always a guaranteed crowd pleaser. Here's Dance To The Music, a joyous call to get down and boogie. The version here is an extended mix taken from a 1979 Epic Records Mixed Masters 12\" - it's remixed by famed disco DJ John Luongo. He takes it from it's stomping soulful roots and turns it into a 6 minute and 32 second disco plate, emphasising the bass riff and the beat. Fantastic remix of an already great tune.\nDogs Die In Hot Cars released their debut LP Please Describe Yourself in the US this week. They are another one of those new British bands that are paying tribute to the early '80s UK literate pop and new wave scene I love so much. They owe XTC a huge debt - singer Craig Macintosh does a very good Andy Partridge. You'll also hear bits of Elvis Costello, Squeeze, Dexy's Midnight Runners, David Bowie and even a whiff of '90s Britpop band like Blur and Pulp. While I was reading the liner notes on the CD I noticed the album was produced by Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley - they produced so many of those orignal bands of that era. Apples And Oranges is a synth infused, slightly psychedelic pop tune that sounds like Talking Heads meets Split Enz meets The Futureheads (it's the uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh's!) - lot's of melody and great vocal harmonising. A fab tune from a pretty good album.\nBush Hater\nEminem has decided to put his considerable talents to use to incite the youth of America to do something about their country, instead of covering his usually more juvenile territory. Mosh is a scathing attack on the Bush administraton, the war on Iraq, and in particular GW himself. What really hooked me about this tune is it's video. Put together by the people from The Guerrilla News Network (where you can download or watch a stream of the vid - you can also get the video from Mr. Gilbert over at The Big Ticket), it's an animated video mixed with live footage, and it's pretty brutal in it's portrayals. I won't give details as you really should see it for yourself - you won't be seeing it on TV! I have always thought that Eminem had the skills - it's good to see him using them to talk about something as big as next week's election. A very controversial little movie - I love it.\nDouble Take - Josef K & Propaganda\nJosef K were one of famed Scottish label Postcard Records' rising stars of the early 80's indiepop scene. Alongside Orange Juice and Aztec Camera they released a handful of classic records combining edgy guitars with pop song sensibilities. Sorry For Laughing is a great little song - full of jangly, skittery guitars and singer Paul Quinn's big crooning voice. They never quite capitalised on the hype, and broke up - Paul went solo and guitarist Malcolm Ross joined Orange Juice, and then Aztec Camera. Their influence would be felt for many years to come - bands like Franz Ferdinand name check them today. (Taken from Rough Trade Shops Indiepop 1 compilation)\nPropaganda covered Sorry For Laughing on their fantastic 1985 debut LP \"A Secret Wish\". Instead of the loose indie jangle, they add their ZTT approved sonic electronic sheen (patented by Trevor Horn) to the song, and in the process transform it into a stomping, rhythmic synth pop gem. The beats are big and pounding, there are great washes of organ in the chorus, and suddenly it's no longer a scratchy little tune, but a Teutonic epic.\nHeavy Rotation - K-os, Le Tigre, Mos Def & The Zutons\nThe Zutons are a Merseybeat four piece who just released their debut in the US. Titled Who Killed......The Zutons?, I picked it up on a whim - I liked the name, had read a few things and decided to take a chance. It's a mix of all kinds of things - classic '60s rock, a bit of disco and new wave, some country and a bit of ska. Singer David McCabe calls it \"soul-funk-voodoo-vibe\". Producer Ian Broudie (The Lightning Seeds) gives everything a super crisp sound. Zuton Fever kicks off the album in fine form with a huge, twangy guitar riff and a very memorable vocal, as well as some great sax. I love it when one of those impulse buys pays off!\nLe Tigre's major label debut This Island was released last week, and I'm not really sure how I feel about it yet. It's a much more polished sounding record than the previous ones, and I get the feeling that I've heard it all before. I do like New Kicks, essentially an anti war anthem. Over a crunchy beat, and amid chants of \"peace now\" are all manner of samples recorded at the \"The World Says No To War March\" in NYC back in Feb.2003. Included are comments by Al Sharpton, Susan Sarandon and Ossie Davis. Fight The power!\nA couple of rap records have caught my ear over the last couple of weeks. Mos Def's second album The New Danger is a sprawling, 18 track rock-rap beast. It's got a bunch of rock tracks with his band Black Jack Johnson, whose members include Doug Wimbush and Bernie Worrell. It's a smoking band of great pedigree, but somehow the rock tracks sound a bit dated. The hip hop tracks are ace, several featuring production by Kanye West. The Rape Over is a raging indictment of those who rule the music industry - \"old white men is running this rap shit\" - a minute and 34 seconds of fierce beats and fiercer rhetoric.\nCanadian rapper K-os caught my attention a couple of years ago with his debut release. I saw a few of the vids and liked what I heard but never got the record. A few weeks ago I saw the video for his new single \"B-Boy Stance\" and was hooked. Joyful Rebellion is a very nice blend of beats and real instruments, with a bit of rock and reggae thrown into the mix. It fits into the whole \"conscious rap\" scene - definitely not hard core. There's lots of positivity, and dude not only raps but can sing too, so the end result is a very melodic, fun record. The Love Songs rides a nice mid tempo beat, and features piano riffing, sitars, and a cool string sample with a very Asian feel.\nFunky Friday - Pop Muzik\nWhen I was at the record store earlier this week I stumbled across a 2004 reissue I had no clue about, M's 1979 album New York\u2022London\u2022Paris\u2022Munich. It's been put out by Razor & Tie Records, and features 5 bonus cuts on it. The classic hit single everyone knows is Pop Muzik. Over a funky, percolating disco beat Robin Scott extolls the joys of pop. It features some great, twangy guitar, some cool sax and it's vocals are unforgettable - his manic new wave delivery, the girls singing the \"shoo-bee-doo-bee-doo-wops\". The band on this recording is interesting too - Wally Badarou on keys, Gary Barnacle on sax and Phil Gould (from Level 42!) on drums. Sure it's got that \"one hit wonder\"/novelty song thing going on, but it's so damn catchy and poptastic I can't resist, and neither should you!\nLeft Of The Dial : Dispatches From The '80s Underground is a great 4 CD set that came out last week. It's a really diverse line up of bands that populated US college radio during that decade, mostly British and American acts (very few Aussies and no New Zealanders are represented). It's a fantastic mix of new wave, punk and early alternative music. Buried in between Suicidal Tendencies, The Pixies, Ultravox and Bauhaus I spied the name Prefab Sprout. God, I loved that first record of theirs - Two Wheels Good if you lived in the US, Steve Mc Queen everywhere else. It's been a few years since I listened to it so I pulled it out, and it's blend of smart, melodic pop seduced me all over again. Produced by Thomas Dolby (who also played synths on it), the album still sounds good today - it's songs have something of a timeless quality to them. Appetite was the first track of theirs I heard, and it remains one of my favorites. It's got great bouncy bass, gorgeous swirling synths and piano, and fantastic harmonising from Wendy. I love all of the different guitar bits too - jazzy in places, rockin' during the chorus. A very memorable tune from a great album.\nHeavy Rotation - Moving Units & Duran Duran\nThe Moving Units finally released their debut LP this week and it's getting a fair amount of play on the old hi-fi. Dangerous Dreams may have arrived too late to cash in the on the whole second wave of post punk thing, as so many people would appear to be over that scene. It's too bad, because I almost think that these guys are one of the better bands of the bunch. I know for sure that I'd rather listen to this record than The Rapture's Echoes - it's got many of the same ingredients, but is a good deal grimier, and not so concerned with the electronic sheen. There is a wee bit of that, but it doesn't detract from the drums-bass-guitar thing going on. Bricks & Mortar starts of with a tight beat, some dubby echo, and then slams into one of the best jams James Chance / White never wrote. A huge bass riff and some shreddingly sharp guitar made this track jump out at me right away. Fierce.\nAlso getting max exposure on my stereo is Astronaut, the new album by the recently reunited original lineup of Duran Duran. It's fun to see and hear the guys again. The music isn't a quite up to par with those first 2 records from the '80s - as my bro pointed out to me, the music is not too far from the records that Simon and Nick and Warren recorded as Duran in the '90s - they rock, they funk, and there are some ballads.If you're a fan of the band you know that the lyrics are going to be goofy and some of them are. Bedroom Toys is one of the tunes that I liked right off. It's co-produced by Nile Rodgers so it's not a surprise to hear the very Chic-like rhythm guitar. A mid tempo funker, it's got typically poppin' John Taylor bass, cooing backups, and a silly Simon rap. I love it. Not a patch on Planet Earth but it'll do.\nClassic 45's Week - Old School Funky Friday\nToday's tunes come from a freebie 7\" given away with the Record Mirror in 1988. It's a Rhythm King versus Jive Records split, and it showcases the two different labels pretty well - edgier, more experimental fare on from Rhythm King and pop rap from Jive.\nSide A kicks off with Bomb The Bass' Megablast in it's original rap version, featuring Merlin on vocals. It's five minutes of beats and scratching with a great rap about the track's fierceness - not much melody or even a tune, but still rocks hard. Track A2 is S'Xpress' Coma, \"specially written and produced\" for this EP. Essentially it's 2 minutes and 40 seconds of measured breathing and a diagnostic machine beep. It's art, man.\nSide B starts off with The Wee Papa Girl Rappers' You Got The Beat - new jack swing beats, the squealing horn sample, and another rap about how fresh their tune is. This is followed by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince's Here We Go Again, which is totally goofy and self promoting, but then most of their tunes were. The music is ace - great keys and bass samples. Guaranteed to make you smile (or turn it off!).\nClassic 45's Week - Gary Numan\nGary Numan had obviously taken notice of what Japan were doing when he released Music For Chameleons in 1982. The trademark sound of Japan was not just David Sylvian's voice, it was also Mick Karn's fretless bass playing. Gary Numan hired ace bass sessioneer Pino Palladino to play the part, and the result is a typically icy yet tight and funky song. What I dig about this 45 is the B side, Noise Noise. It's a rougher edged track notable for featuring the talents of Thereza Bazar on vocals and David Van Day on \"helpful hints\". These two are better known as shiny UK poptarts Dollar, who rode a wave of Trevor Horn produced singles to chart success around the same time. They were the ultimate air brushed duo, so it it was intriguing to see their name on a Gary Numan record. As a little bonus treat (and a chance to compare how different the two artists really are) here's one of Dollar's biggest hits, Hand Held In Black And White. I would put them in the \"guilty pleasure\" category - this song is such a cheesy pop tune, but for me the trademark big production by Trevor Horn and Bruce Wooley make it sound so great I can't resist!\nClassic 45's Week - Eddy Grant\nEddy Grant began his career in the late '60s with multi-racial combo The Equals. By the late 70's he was a solo star in Europe, creating records that were political and anti-racist, as well as having pop appeal. They sounded unlike any others around at the time - a blend of reggae, rock and pop with lots of electronics, all played by the man. It wasn't until 1983 that he got the attention of the US, and it was with monster single Electric Avenue. Everybody knows the tune - it's brash, growling riff, the spongy synths - you couldn't escape it at the time, it was everywhere. The beauty of this little 7\" is it's B side pairing with a previous single from 1979, Walking On Sunshine. This is one funky ass tune, IMO one of the best things he did - disco reggae beats, smooth horns, and much sunny positivity make me shake it every time I hear it. As a little bonus treat here's the brilliant 1982 cover of Walking On Sunshine by Rocker's Revenge, which boosts the disco with a sweet electro sheen. Arthur Baker is at the controls, so it's chock full of NYC electro goodness.\nClassic 45's Week - Captain Sensible\nIn 1982 Captain Sensible took a break from The Damned and launched a solo career. He hooked up with producer Tony Mansfield (New Muzik) and crafted a pop single that swept the charts, the Wot!. It tells a simple story - man with jackhammer makes a lot of noise, Captain complains, droll female backup vocalists sing along. It's got a great bass line, funky guitars, the words are funny, and the backups always make me smile. You have to remember that rap was in it's infancy, and was a uniquely American thing, and suddenly you've got this punk rock dude from England having a go at it - all of this juxtaposition makes it pretty unique! The B side is six minute, six part mini psych pop epic, Strawberry Dross. There's more goofiness in the lyrics - magic roundabouts, hippies in caftans and advertising are all covered, and there are a couple of instrumental bits with some nice guitar and piano. Parts of it make me think that if he'd actually put a bit more effort into it some of it could have been very good. Again, all very silly yet still enjoyable.\nClassic 45's Week - Bomb The Bass\nI was hanging out with my bro last night and got a chance to rummage through his box of old '80s 45's. He graciously allowed me to nab a few so that I could share them here. Every day this week I will be posting a single, both the A side and the B side (because sometimes the B side is just as interesting). Today's inaugural post comes from Tim Simenon's ace beat combo Bomb The Bass. Breaking out of the late '80s acid house scene with the Thunderbirds and funky drummer sampling Beat Dis, they created a slew of classic dance cuts, combining hip hop, breakbeats, electro, scratching and sampling with a rotating cast of guest vocalists. One of the biggest hits from their 1988 debut LP Into The Dragon was their fairly radical (for the time) reworking of the Bacharach classic Say A Little Prayer. It's essentially the blue print for trip hop before there was even such a term - breakbeats, spacy keys and a big diva voice provided by Maureen. The flip side of the record is 10 Seconds To Terminate - it's aimed squarely at the dancefloor. A pumping house-y beat, speak and spell voices counting and more than a little bit of one of Kraftwerk's finest riffs all add up to make this a pretty bangin' track.\nI turned 40 this year, and over this and the last couple of years the music of \"my era\" has come of age for the remastered reissue treatment. Today's selections are all culled from some of the remasters I've picked up, and they're all oldies but goodies that you're either going to love or hate. Now, on with the crusty old dude selections...\nFirst up is Billy Joel. I normally wouldn't call myself of fan - I haven't bought a new record of his at any time over the last 20 years. I did go through a phase in the late '70s though, and that's where Zanzibar comes in. From 1978's 52nd Street, it's a very Steely Dan like blend of jazz and rock. The tune actually includes a jazz breakdown in the middle of it which is pretty smokin'. I think that this era is the man at his creative peak, able to handle all kinds of styles and still craft catchy pop hits. The last album of his I bought was Glass Houses, so I picked up the remaster of that one too. Next up, The Stranger and then I'm done!\nI finally got my hands on the remaster of Adam & The Ants' breakthrough album Kings Of The Wild Frontier. From the opening track, Dog Eat Dog, you know you're in for a fun ride. Gone are the art punk pretensions, in are the big tribal beats, hugely twangy, Morricone-esque guitars, and that unmistakable voice. Of course chart domination ensued. These Ants remasters are really sweet - lovely packaging, great sound and loads of bonus cuts.\nI took Paul McCartney & Wings' Wingspan into work this week and was amazed at what a crowd pleaser it could be - lots of co-workers seemed to enjoy it, at least those close to my age! Silly Love Songs was a huge hit in 1976, and I remember hearing it on the radio a lot. Sure it's goofy, but it has a great bass line and horns, and I love it. I never actually bought a Wings record - my parents gave me Red Rose Speedway for Xmas one year - so I'm amazed a how well I know all the songs on this complation, words and all.\nFunky Friday - Debate Special - THE LINK WORKS NOW!\nIn honor of tonight's second presidential debate enjoy a classic funk cut from The Godfather Of Soul, James Brown - Talkin' Loud And Saying Nothin'. Over a typically tight funk jam JB spouts any number of lines that can be used in this context - \"You keep on singing the same old pop song\" - \"You can't tell me how to use my mess\" - \"Shape up your bag, don't worry about mine\". Of course, in my little world it's all applied to GW and the current administration, but in the spirit of bipartisanship I suppose it could go either way...\nThe Return of De la Soul\nDe La Soul released their first new record in 4 years this week. It's called The Grind Date, and it features a bunch of guest vocalists - MF Doom, Flava Flav, Common, Ghostface, and some cool production assistance from Madlib, J Dilla and Supa Dave West. I've listened to it a couple of times and have to say that I'm digging it. I love the hook on opening track The Future - an old easy listening vocal sample about \"the future\", lyrics establishing their \"elder statesmen\" position in the rap world, and a nice fat beat. It's kind of crazy to think that I've been listening to these dudes for 15 years now!\nFYI - I cut the track's first minute out - it's just some very quiet talking intro.\nSome Beats To Move Ya Feets\nEighteenth Street Lounge released French DJ Chris Joss' great debut LP You've Been Spiked this week. Keeping in line with the label's aesthetic, it's a very groovy, '60s and '70s influenced party soundtrack. There are Euro spy themes, funky blaxploitation riffs, and on A Part In That Show some killer disco. It's a cross between Chic and Bob Sinclar, with a poppin' bass line, the requisite scratchy guitars and some great squelchy synths. \"Jump up, let's go. let's take a part in that show!\"\nAlso out this week is Fingathing's latest sci-fi laced adventure ...And The Big Red Nebula Band. The last couple of albums were released on the Grand Central imprint, but the new one gets it's US release on the venerable NinjaTune. These guys don't get a lot of hype for their music, but I enjoy it. A blend of live and sampled instrumentation, including some killer double bass, they deftly mix hip hop, spy music, breakbeats and a smattering of proggy tendencies (all of the albums have a concept/theme that's carried on from record to record). On Synergy they add a new style to the mix - booming electro. It's old skool beats are topped of with one furiously funky bass riff, wiggy scratches, and as the song goes on, all manner of strings. It's big, nuff said.\nDJ Krush's Jaku was released a few weeks ago, and as with all of his records, it has taken a few weeks for it to sink in. Road To Nowhere is a dark and moody instrumental cut. The beat has a bit if a sleigh bell thing going on in it, and it's one of those low slung, loping beats - so loose it's tight. It's topped off with the requisite jazzy double bass line, some nice string samples and a few ghostly electronic noises. Keeps my head bobbing...\nHoward Hamilton III is The Busy Signals. Back in 2000 he released his debut album Baby's First Beats on Chicago's Sugar Free Records. I heard it on the listening station at my fave record store, and just with a quick skip through I knew I was going to like it. Over all manner of crusty hip hop loops he threw a mish mash of easy listening samples, his almost-spoken vocals, and lot's of lo-fi instrumentation - the album was \"recorded and mixed at home\". The end result is some very fun, lush pop music, with a big debt to '60s pop, and a little bit of a nod towards Beck and Sukpatch. He went on to release another LP - 2001's Pretend Hits, which features several collaborations with Robert Schneider from The Apples In Stereo as well as guest vocals by fellow Minnesotan Har Mar Superstar, and an EP of remixes and b-sides called Pure Energy. The production values got a bit slicker on the later records, and they never quite hit the spot for me the way the debut did. He hasn't put anything out in the last few years, so I don't know if he's still recording. Anyway, enjoy a few tracks from Baby's First Beats...\nHeadphone World\nA few selections culled from the old LP collection...\nMetro was the duo of Peter Godwin and Duncan Browne. Their debut album came out in 1976, and Criminal World is the first cut on it. Many of you who are David Bowie fans will recognize this from the version he did on his Let's Dance LP. I've always loved this song - I knew Bowie's version first and only recently came across a copy by Metro. I like the original even better. Bowie's version is a tight groove - this one is spacy, sprawling '70s art rock, with big fuzzy guitars and blissed out vocals. It's always fun to hear the differences in interpretations, and there are plenty here.\nJoan Armatrading's I Can't Lie To Myself is a cut from 1981's Walk Under Ladders. I went through a few years there where I was a big fan of Joan's music. I had missed the earlier years of her career, but when she put out this record I was hooked . It's a blend of rock, folk and reggae mixed in with a few gorgeous ballads. The album features a host of guest musicians - Thomas Dolby, Andy Partridge, Jerry Marotta, Tony Levin and Nick Plytas. Her quivering voice fascinated me, so vulnerable and shaky in those softer moments, yet capable of being so big and booming and assertive. This tune is a blistering reggae and rock combo featuring the mighty rhythm section talents of Sly & Robbie - big dub rhythms, blistering bluesy guitars and Joan's honesty make this wicked.\nThe Feelies' brand of jangly, Velvets inspired indie rock always made me smile. Their '86 LP The Good Earth is chock full of catchy little nuggets. Let's Go has it's roots in VU for sure - the steady propulsive beat, those guitar riffs, that bass line. It's a totally blissful little rocker to help you get your jangle on.\nAnd finally the ridiculous...\nB.E.F. was little side project of Martyn Ware & Ian Craig Marsh, better known as one half of the original Human League line up and later as two thirds of synth funkers Heaven 17. They recorded an two albums of cover songs, each track with a guest vocalist. The first volume of Music Of Quality & Distinction came out in '82, and you get Tina Turner doing Ball Of Confusion, Glenn Gregory doing Perfect Day and Wichita Lineman, and a bunch of other oddballs - Gary Glitter, Bernie Nolan of The Nolan Sisters and Paul Jones. There are a few things I do like on it - Billy Mackenzie's Secret Life Of Arabia (a Bowie tune) & Sandie Shaw does a lovely Anyone Who Had A Heart, but for sheer silliness nothing tops Paula Yates on These Boots Are Made For Walking. It's peppy and squeaky, and I actually kind of enjoy it - especially the horns at the end.\nEarlier this week Just For A Day posted a track by The Fire Engines. This got me digging into the vinyl, and I'm picking up where the Fire Engines left off. The next band that singer Davey Henderson fronted was Win. The first time I heard their debut single You've Got The Power I knew I had to have it - a brash, anthemic pop tune that rocked and danced at the same time. It's got the wikka wikka guitar riffs, that big '80s drum sound and a very cool, very catchy keyboard melody. Where the Fire Engines were more of a rock band, here Davey was trying for a more of a pop sound - they still had some of the spikier elements in place, just with a much more polished sheen to them. If I had ruled the world chart domination would have ensued, but of course it didn't. They released two albums and Win was over. Davey Henderson has continued to record over the last decade as Nectarine No.9. It remains a mystery to me why this song was not a HUGE hit.\nFunky Friday Disco Doubleplay\nToday it's a double dose of vintage disco from 1979 and 1980 - Machine's There But For The Grace Of God and Kid Creole & the Coconuts' Darrio. Both of these tunes were written and produced by August Darnell, AKA Kid Creole. The Machine tune is a sweet disco groove - funky bass and keys, lot's of big vocals and a very touching story - family moves out of the Bronx to raise a child and escape the city's evil influences, only to have the kid grow up and develop all of the problems they had hoped to avoid - \"too much love is worse than none at all\". The second tune is just as funky, but with none of the serious social commentary. Instead it's a chorus of the Coconuts asking Kid Creole's character Darrio to get them into Studio 54, and him replying that it's just not the scene it used to be -\"the DJ, he don't even play the B-52s!\" or \"We should go check out mister James White\". Sounds like he had the right idea! Genius stuff.\nJunior Boys Vs.

        "title": "Master Engineer of Sigmar's Realm: The Simpsons....Possible Solution?",
        "raw_content": "The Simpsons...a solution? What are you talking about? Well really, that's asking two questions.\nOne: You could be saying, what's wrong with the Simpsons that they need a solution?\nTwo: What...you mean you have a solution!!!!!\nIf you are of question 'One' above, then you will no doubt be unhappy with the direction of this blog. Or, if you are from question 'Two' then you may find this interesting.\nThe Simpsons hold a hallowed place in everyones' heart. I don't know anyone that doesn't watch them, and I'm certain that anyone and everyone stuck for something to watch would gladly sit down and flick to one of the Sky channels and watch an old classic episode of America's favourite family.\nThat's the catch isn't it. \"Old classic episode\". If you are from my clique of sorts, you will know that we highly disapprove of the Simpsons \"new\" episodes. I can remember when I was smaller, waiting until 6.00 (or 6.30 depending) every Sunday to watch the 'new' episode of the Simpsons. I even remember the landmark 300th episode, the build up, the hype, the excitement. That was when the Simpsons were funny, so many jokes that you would laugh for ages afterwards.\nThen we heard that the Simpsons were going to come to an end. Yes we were sad and we'd hoped for more. Little did we know what the Simpsons would become afterwards.\nIn case you haven't got it by now, I don't don't find the new Simpsons to be funny at all. It has become a kids programme. Rarely will we hear nowadays words such as 'bastard' or 'sex' in the Simpsons. Why did we used to? Because the Simpsons when they began were aimed at an older age group, kindof like what Family Guy is aimed at. All in all I don't like the Simpsons anymore really. They rely now on celebrities to make the show interesting. For instance, word had spread as early as 6 months in advance that Metallica (my fav band) would appear in the Simpsons. Now naturally I assumed they would have a role similar to what U2 had in their episode. No. Not the case. Instead we get a lame scene with Otto driving by, seeing that their tour bus has broken down, and some suck ass joke about Lars' mother dating Moleman or something like that. Absolutely shocking. What happened to funny moments like the ones we had with N'Sync. The hype to that episode was that Bart would be in a boyband, not that N'Sync would feature.\nThe biggest sign of how bad things have gotten for the Sim psons is that we are going to have a movie this summer. Quite possibly the most obvious commercial money hoarding ploy EVER. I don't have to watch it to know how much ass it's going to suck. If the new episodes are anything to go by, I can safely say I won't be going to see it....unless I'm dragged along by Donal, Chrissy and co. to check it out, then get pissed and bitch about how bad it was.\nSo what do I think can be done to make it better? Well the idea occured to me when I was watching one of my favourite programmes of all time - Red Dwarf. Between the end of Season 2 and the beginning of Season 3, the show \"Red Dwarf\" went under a major overhaul. The sets were redesigned, characters costumes (namely Rimmer) were changed and an old character who was originally not intended to be a permanent character - Kryten - joined the show on a permanent basis. They also replaced male Holly (that's the computer) with the female Holly which we met in the final episode of Season 2. The same happened from Season 5 to 6 and from 7 to 8. From Season 5 to 6, we learn that they had actually LOST the Red Dwarf ship and were now stranded on Starbug (that's a drastically smaller shuttle type craft). In Season 7, they were still on Starbug, except Rimmer left and was replaced by Lister's love icon Kristine Kochanski. Then from Season 7 to 8, the Red Dwarf was rebuilt, along with the original crew (including Rimmer) which allowed for a whole host of new plot lines and character development.\nIt was this change that allowed Red Dwarf to grow in popularity, and ultimately the addition of both Kryten and Kochanski were the right way to go. Needless to say the jokes got better with each series, and arguably when Rimmer returned in Season 8, that was by far the most hilarious series of the lot.\nThe same can be said for South Park. As a bloke, I find South Park to be one of the funniest programmes ever, though it seems to be a male thing, as a lot of women don't like South Park for whatever reason. They too changed the scene and characters, namely with the exit of Kenny and the introduction of characters like Butters, Timmy and Jimmy. Like Red Dwarf, Kenny came back in the same manner as Rimmer and the programme only got better.\nSo how does this solution apply to the Simpsons. Well programmes such as Red Dwarf and South Park have shown that both change and progression in the timeline make the shows better. This is what I believe the Simpsons need to do. Look at it, we have had over 300 episodes of the exact same characters, in the exact same time period (and by time peroid I mean where they are in school. I'm aware that the years change). Would it hurt them to move them on a few years, have Bart get out of 4th grade, Lisa move up, Maggie go to Kindergarden (sp?) etc. That opens up for new characters and places. It's at a point where we can nearly predict what each of the main characters will do or say. Let's face it, the episode when Lisa sees into the future was interesting and entertaining because we were seeing Springfield several years on, yet we had no new characters. The introduction of 'Roy' in the Poochie episode could've gone places in my opinion. Why not introduce new kids to the class? We get one episode with Alison, and then we only see her in subsequent episodes thereafter. Killing Maude off was the right way to go, it added a whole new aspect to the Flanders' lives.\nThat's the only thing they've been consistent with. Lisa's change to Buddhism didn't really have any kind of effect on the whole thing. Why not give Bart a (permanent) girlfriend or something? Have Maggie talk now and then? Some new corporate tyrant to match Mr Byrnes? Simply anything to give outselves a change. A change which I know would be for the better.\nAm I being too harsh on the matter? Is the Simpsons still as funny as it used to be? What's your solution?\nLeave it in the comments if you have a chance, I'd greatly appreciate other peoples' insights!\nHoly water is made of J2O, Jesus Dioxide!\nLabels: Postulations, Simpsons, TV\nU complete let down on life\nu fukin loser\nWell you're about the only person on the planet who thinks Series 7 of Red Dwarf (the one with Kochanski) was nothing other than an unmitigated disaster, especially when you look at the audience figures (which fell through the floor).\nRed Dwarf works because its about the fallibility of males. Introducing a smart female who wasnt in the least funny (because she was sane rational and sexy) just totally failed, as it was doomed to - it utterly misses the point.\nErgo the rest of your observations in this blog become uninformed.",

It was at Sunium that the Persians destroyed a partially completed Greek temple.

Given that Sunium jutted into the sea, it was only appropriate that they paid special attention to this watery deity.\nGeographically, Sunium was about twenty-five miles southeast of Athens. Given this distance, it would have take one day, two at most, for the ship from Delos to reach the city.

        "raw_content": "The Leon Levine Foundation Awards $350,000 To Palmetto Health Foundation To Name the Sandra and Leon Levine Pediatric Inpatient Rehabilitation Center at Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital\nSandra and Leon Levine\nThe Leon Levine Foundation (TLLF) has awarded $350,000 to Palmetto Health Foundation to name the Sandra and Leon Levine Pediatric Inpatient Rehabilitation Center at Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital. The Center will be the first and only pediatric inpatient rehabilitation program in South Carolina.\nEach year, there are more than 150,000 children\u2019s visits to Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital. Some children experience a life-altering condition or injury and require specialized rehabilitation. Because an inpatient pediatric rehabilitation program does not currently exist in South Carolina, patients and families are faced with challenges when they have to go out-of-state for care. Often, families are unexpectedly uprooted for months at a time. Children from low-income families bear the brunt of this burden, as their families do not have the resources to travel, stay for an extended period away and coordinate care for their other children. As a result, these children usually do not receive critical rehabilitative services. The effect of not receiving appropriate rehabilitative care can have a long-term negative impact on a child\u2019s physical recovery. The Sandra and Leon Levine Pediatric Inpatient Rehabilitation Center at Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital will bridge this gap. Construction is now underway, with an anticipated completion timeframe of Spring 2019.\nTLLF, located in Charlotte, N.C., seeks to improve the human condition by creating permanent, measurable and life-changing impact. The gift to support the Rehabilitation Center expands the foundation\u2019s philanthropic footprint to South Carolina and honors the legacy of Leon Levine, founder, and his wife, Sandra.\nTom Lawrence, executive director of TLLF, said: \u201cWe know that many patients and their families have been traveling to Charlotte and receiving rehabilitation services from the wonderful team at Levine Children\u2019s Hospital. While we are encouraged to hear that our investment in Charlotte has impacted children from numerous communities, TLLF believes it is essential for Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital to have a rehabilitation center of its own.\u201d He concluded: \u201cMaking quality health care more accessible to those in need is a key component of the foundation\u2019s health care mission, and we\u2019re excited to play a part in the growth of this tremendous hospital.\u201d\nThe Sandra and Leon Levine Pediatric Inpatient Rehabilitation Center at Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital will improve access to health care for South Carolina children and their families and will have a significant impact on the vision of Children\u2019s Hospital. The Center will be led by Colleen A. Wunderlich, MD, MSc, the state\u2019s only pediatric physiatrist. Pediatric physiatrists are physicians with special training in physical medicine and rehabilitation, who specialize in prescribing medications, therapies and programs to restore skills and mobility to children facing temporary or permanent disabilities and loss of function.\n\u201cWe are thrilled that TLLF has chosen our Pediatric Inpatient Rehab Center at Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital as their first opportunity to make a difference in the health care of South Carolina residents,\u201d said Dr. Wunderlich. \u201cTogether with other generous donors, their support will help build the state\u2019s first pediatric inpatient rehabilitation unit to bring these much-needed services to children and adolescents in South Carolina\u2014allowing their families to stay in their home state when dealing with life-altering conditions and traumatic injuries.\u201d\nThe partnership between TLLF and Palmetto Health Foundation solidifies both Foundations\u2019 commitment to improve access to quality health care in local communities.\n\u201cSandra and Leon Levine have given an incredible gift to Palmetto Health Children\u2019s Hospital,\u201d said Samuel Tenenbaum, president, Palmetto Health Foundation. \u201cTheir generosity, tireless efforts and big hearts will have a lasting impact in our community. We are forever grateful for their kindness and are honored to help them carry out their mission.\u201d\nFor more information or to support the project, visit PalmettoHealthFoundation.org.\nAbout The Leon Levine Foundation\nStarted by Leon Levine \u2013 the founder of the first Family Dollar Store in Charlotte, N.C. \u2013 in 1980, The Leon Levine Foundation\u2019s mission is to improve the human condition by creating permanent, measurable, and life-changing impact throughout the Carolinas.

        "raw_content": "The Japanese multinational holding conglomerate could make a profit of over $3 billion on the planned sale.\nThe sharp fall in Nvidia\u2019s share price has prompted SoftBank to consider the move.\nSoftBank Group Corp. (SoftBank) is reportedly planning to sell off its stake in the renowned American technology firm, Nvidia Corporation (Nvidia) early in 2019 as shares of the graphics chipmaker continue to fall.\nReports cite, the Japanese investor stands to make a profit of about $3 billion from the sale. A final decision has not been made yet and the company may choose to retain its stake or sell off only a portion of it.\nApparently, the Japanese investor had initially acquired a $4 billion stake in the Silicon Valley chipmaker in the initial months of 2017, making Softbank Nvidia\u2019s fourth-largest shareholder. The stake was later transferred to Softbank\u2019s technology investment fund, Vision Fund.\nWhile SoftBank reportedly still possesses an equity stake inside the tech company, it has built a supposed collar-trade of about $6 billion, which enables investors to accumulate stakes while safeguarding themselves against falling share prices. The Japanese company has structures equity trade-deals along with investment banks to hedge against a fall in share prices of Nvidia.\nReportedly, for much of 2018, Nvidia stocks have been on a tear, profiting from an array of factors ranging from Artificial Intelligence (AI) & cryptocurrency mining. However, company shares have dropped over 48% since they peaked on October 1 due to the China \u2013 U.S. trade war and bleaker growth & demand prospects for chipmakers.\nThis dramatic fall in the share prices have been the reason behind SoftBank considering offloading its significant stake in the company.\nSoftBank\u2019s stake in Nvidia reportedly peaked at about $7 billion back in September 2018, and the investment company would reportedly get around $6 billion if it were to exercise all options at average strike price.\nBoth Softbank & Nvidia declined to comment on the matter given that it has not been made public yet.",

With the owner\u2019s complete vision unfulfilled, they purchased additional property adjacent to the course and added another nine holes to complete their eighteen hole vision.\nIn 1988, the golf course changed hands and with the enthusiasm of the new ownership and architectural prowess of the Superintendent Maurice Ducharme, the front nine was redesigned and reborn with new greens, challenging layouts and at last, sand bunkers. Hundreds of trees of various species were planted that have now matured creating a backdrop of idyllic scenery and unmatched beauty during the fall months.\nIn 2000 the club house was completely rebuilt and tailored to maximize the view of the golf course while and providing additional ambiance to host large scale tournaments, special events or memorable family occasions.\nAt the sixth green you will be shadowed by \u201cthe old house.\u201d Built in the mid 1800\u2019s, it has always been a topic of conversation amongst players for decades and leaves you with the feeling of being watched while you putt out.\nIn 2015, the course was purchased by Ian Ladd, Lisa Mercanti-Ladd, Peter Chavez and Larry Di Nicola. This ownership group is committed to carry on the fine legacy and reputation. They are focused on continuous improvement of the course and the entire Southbrook organization.\nThere are many who have made their contributions to the building and development of our golf course throughout the years and thanks to their dedication and commitment, Southbrook has firmly established its foot hold as one of Ontario\u2019s finest.\nThe journey has just begun . . .",

        "raw_content": "We carry out topographic beach profile surveys at over 100 beaches around the South West coast, using RTK GPS, which is accurate to ~30mm. A minimum of two GPS receivers, linked by radio, are required. One receiver acts as a base station, providing corrections, the other is a mobile station used for the collection of data.\nThe main advantage of GPS over other techniques is in the speed of data capture. In some instances GPS equipment can be mounted onto a moving vehicle such as a quad bike for even faster data acquisition.\nWe survey profiles at fixed intervals along the beach in the spring and autumn at the majority of sites. Sites which are deemed very low risk will be surveyed only once, in the spring. These profiles allow us to calculate the cross-sectional area of the beach and to identify areas of change.\nEvery five years, at the beginning of each new phase of the Programme, we carry out a more comprehensive survey at each of our sites to establish a baseline. These baseline surveys involve measuring spot heights along the entire beach at a minimum of 5m intervals and surveying beach profiles at 50m intervals along the beach. The spot height data can be used to create digital elevation models of the beach which are then used to show how the shape of the beach is changing over time.\nHigh risk sites, or those with a beach management plan receive a repeat baseline during the summer each year.\nAll our surveys extend from the back of the beach to the level of mean low water spring tides, to ensure we consistently cover the same area of the beach and to maximise the amount of beach we are able to survey.\nThousands of beach profiles will be collected during the course of the Programme, allowing us to build up a large, consistent, quality controlled dataset.\nWe issue annual reports on all sites that we survey containing analysis of the data we have collected. These can be downloaded here from the National Coastal Monitoring website. Follow the link to the map viewer and data catalogue to download topographic data.\nAn example of data points collected during a baseline survey (left), interim beach profile surveys (centre) and post-storm surveys (right).\nSmall brass markers with the letters EABM on their surface have been positioned in hard structures along the coast.\nThese are part of a series of over 150 GPS surveyed points which make up the Programme's ground control network, to which all our surveys relate. Established using GPS observations, the network ties in with the primary Ordnance Survey network which replaces the bench marks previously used with more traditional survey methods.\nLocation diagrams for each marker can be downloaded here.\nPost-Storm Surveys\nAfter major events such as big storms, we carry out post-storm beach surveys. These are typically along a reduced number of profiles at the most vulnerable points along the beach. These profiles are agreed with the engineers responsible for each beach in advance. The number of post-storm profiles at a site can change to reflect areas of damage to the beach.\nWe aim to have surveyors on site within 24 hours of a storm event, where conditions allow. We aim to capture as much of the profiles as we can safely, so it's unlikely profiles will be able to extend as far out as mean low water springs level.\nThe data is quickly processed and supplied to operating engineers to make sure they have the most up to date information to make informed decisions on the management of the beach following a storm event.\nStorm Damage at South Milton Sands, Devon in 2014",

        "raw_content": "Spoken For is an Albuquerque based organization that exists to end sex trafficking in New Mexico. We are actively involved in the process of rescue, aftercare, and advocacy for formerly trafficked individuals, providing emergency housing for identified victims and collaborative partnerships to address transitional and long-term housing needs.\nSpoken For strives to seek justice for those trapped in human trafficking. Often they are caught in a cycle of manipulation where their freedom to determine their own future is taken from them. Justice doesn\u2019t stop at ending the crime of trafficking. Justice works beyond the violation, empowering survivors to move past their exploitation and live the lives they choose for themselves.\nSpoken For works with local law enforcement to help identify, but more importantly, to aid in assisting a rescue by providing emergency response when a victim has been identified and removed from the trafficking situation. Spoken For has established collaborative partnerships with key law enforcement, including the New Mexico Attorney General\u2019s Office and sits on the New Mexico Human Trafficking Task Force. New Mexico is one of twenty-seven USAOs actively participating in anti-trafficking with the New Mexico Human Trafficking Task Force (NMHTTF), a collaborative effort to help accomplish the goals of prevention, prosecution, and protection for victims of human trafficking in the state. Key staff at Spoken For also chair the Diversion subcommittee and previously chaired the Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking subcommittee, which are subcommittees formed by the larger Human Trafficking Task Force. Spoken For has established strong collaborative partnerships with Homeland Security, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Albuquerque Police Department and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.\nSpoken For has also been an intricate part of helping to provide support and resources to The Life Link, another New Mexico based organization that provides victim services to this specialized population. Spoken For has spent the past 5 years doing statewide resource mapping to be able to provide and/or connect resources for additional service providers, law enforcement, the judicial system, medical/health field, educational institutions and many other community partners. The services provided by Spoken For and these collaborative partnerships has helped assist with the prosecution of human trafficking cases in addition to increasing the number of victims who receive wraparound services necessary for the stabilization on the road to restoration.",

        "title": "Correction: Caster Semenya-Award story - Sport Solid",
        "raw_content": "Correction: Caster Semenya-Award story\nNEW YORK \u2014 In a story Oct. 22 about South African runner Caster Semenya, The Associated Press reported erroneously that Semenya's appeal case at the Court of Arbitration for Sport was pushed back to February. The date of hearing has not changed and a verdict is expected on or before March 26.\nTrack star Semenya adds fans as testosterone battle drags\nOlympic 800-meter star Caster Semenya earns LeBron praise, Women's Sports Foundation courage award for fight with IAAF over testosterone levels\nNEW YORK \u2014 South African track star Caster Semenya can add LeBron James to the list of admirers ahead of her showdown with the international track and field governing body.\nJames watched the world and Olympic 800-meter champion win a race last month in Berlin. She's his fan, and they're both Nike-sponsored athletes.\n\"You know, in American language they say 'you're dope,'\" said a smiling Semenya, who wore James' white and gold Nike shoes with a lion head on the back. \"He told me to keep on working hard, I'm a special kid. I was deeply touched.\"\nJames is just one of Semenya's global fans, supporting a fight against world track officials that's dragged on nearly a decade. The IAAF wants to limit the eligibility of female middle-distance runners who have naturally high levels of testosterone. Semenya \u2014 who has not often spoken openly about the challenges \u2014 is taking control of her message, joining Nike sponsored-athletes like James, Colin Kaepernick and Simone Biles in a series of ads.\nIn the video \"I was Born to Do This,\" Semenya asks: \"Will it be easier for you if I wasn't so fast? Will it be simpler for you if I stopped winning? Would you be more comfortable if I was less proud?\"\nSemenya says her audience is not her critics or competitors.\n\"It's just to inspire the youth, to be honest,\" she said. \"They see light in me. So they can see a better future.\"\nSemenya received the Wilma Rudolph Courage Award on Wednesday night from the Women's Sports Foundation and Billie Jean King. Semenya flew 23 hours from Johannesburg, via Dubai, for her first trip to New York.\n\"Caster is a woman on a mission,\" King told The Associated Press.\nKing and the Women's Sports Foundation are supporting Semenya in her latest fight against the IAAF. Females would be required to take hormones to lower their testosterone to compete in international events and the Olympics.\nSemenya and Athletics South Africa are challenging the proposal before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland.\nEarly in Semenya's career, her improved times and what some competitors considered a masculine appearance drew the attention of the IAAF. Before the 2009 world championships in Berlin, the IAAF made her undergo gender tests and the results were not released. But on the day of the final, it became public she'd been tested. The 18-year-old Semenya won the 800 title despite the distractions.\nThen the IAAF stopped Semenya from competing for 11 months while conducting more tests. She was allowed to return in 2010, with no explanation from the governing body.\nSemenya says her family deals with the critics based on how she responds.\n\"You cannot control what other people say. I'm the one who can control that by being me,\" she said. \"By being that kid that they raised. That kid with respect and a sense of humor.\"\nThe IAAF wants to lower natural testosterone in female middle-distance runners to a maximum of 5 nanomoles per liter of blood. The governing body argues that naturally high testosterone provides a \"competitive advantage.\" There is no equivalent rule for male athletes.\nThe previous IAAF maximum of 10 nanos for all females was enacted in 2011 and struck down in 2015 by CAS after Indian sprinter Dutee Chand challenged the rule. The current IAAF attempt seeks to narrow the rule to females who run the 400, 800 and 1,500.\n\"It is always concerning, as a matter of law, when policies appear to be targeted to limit the participation of a small group of individuals,\" said Suzanne Goldberg, director of the Center for Gender & Sexuality Law at Columbia University.\nSemenya's legal firm Norton Rose Fulbright said in statement in June it is necessary to challenge the IAAF's proposal to \"protect the rights of all women.\" Her lawyers say it violates the IAAF constitution, the Olympic charter and universally recognized human rights.\nGrowing up playing soccer with the boys in the province of Northern Limpopo, Semenya drew strength from meeting Nelson Mandela on several occasions after winning the 2009 world title.\n\"The wisdom words he has shared with me \u2014 it was about educate yourself to be better,\" she said. \"Education is the key to success. Sports does unite people. It changed other people's lives.\n\"Treat other people with love and respect. If you can learn that, life is just simple.\"\nA sports science major at the University of Pretoria, she went on to win 800 world titles in 2011 and 2017 and gold at the 2016 Rio Olympics.\nRussian runner Mariya Savinova \u2014 one of the competitors who publicly criticized Semenya's times and physique \u2014 was banned from the sport for doping in 2017. Her 800 gold medal from the 2012 London Olympics was handed to second-place finisher Semenya.\nKing joined more than 60 athletes who wrote an open letter to the IAAF in July, urging it to rescind the proposed standard. U.S. soccer star Megan Rapinoe called out sports federations for policing female bodies but \"never our male counterparts.\" She pointed to the competitive advantage of the wingspan of Michael Phelps, not to mention the long legs of Usain Bolt.\nCompetitive advantages may include the age an athlete starts training, the quality of coaches and facilities, nutrition and other factors.\n\"Singling out women's testosterone levels from all possible factors that influence athletes' success is not a sensible or just answer,\" Goldberg said.\nThe 27-year-old Semenya is married to Violet Raseboya, her longtime partner and a former runner, who is setting up a foundation to benefit youth in South Africa.\nSemenya plans to defend her 800 world title in September in Doha, Qatar, and her Olympic gold at the 2020 Tokyo Games. The long-term goal is to break the 800 world record of 1:53.28 set in 1983. She's about 1 second off the mark.\nIn the meantime, she'll keep training until her future is decided by the court.\n\"South Africa is a rainbow nation for me,\" said Semenya, who carried the flag at the opening ceremony of the London Olympics. \"I stand for my country, I stand for my people, I stand for people who love and support me. They appreciate me for who I am. It's fantastic.\"",

There is no precedent that can prepare an individual for it; Divorce is a process, not an event. Legal divorce can be pinpointed to a moment in time, to the signing of a court decision, but not so the experience of the divorce. The experience of divorce is the result of a series of incidents that eventually erode a relationship between husband and a wife. The ending of any marriage that has endured long enough for the two partners to invest portions of their lives, money, emotions and dreams is often a devastating experience. (Excerpt taken from the Marriage Tribunal)\nDivorce is never part of your plan for life.

You know right away that it\u2019s one that you going to love. That\u2019s how Lux series is for me, so far. After reading Onyx, it seems like I got more observed in story. It\u2019s a book, right after finishing it, I wanted to read the next one right away. Especially the way that Onyx ended, wasn\u2019t expecting that. That\u2019s what I love about these books, they tend to having unexpected twists. I can\u2019t wait to read Opal, to see what adventures and obstacles everyone will face now.\nI had a feeling like Onyx had more action, then the first book did. I believe it\u2019s due to fact how much training, fighting that Katy was doing through the book. I think that was one of the reasons that seemed more action packed to me then the first book. Of course, what happened towards the end of the book too, that was something that I wasn\u2019t expecting to happen. Once again, Jennifer threw an unexpected twist in the story. While I was reading it, I had feeling that something was going to go down, but I did not expect for someone to die, and I actually liked him. I wanted to pick up Opal right away, to see what happens next. Even when I reached end of the book, I was on the edge of my seat.\nDaemon & Blake: I thought that there was quite bit of tension, between Daemon and Katy in Obsidian. It was nothing compared to attraction, tension that was between two of them in Onyx. It seemed that their tension and attraction grew more in Onyx. I believe that it was only due to fact that Katy was trying to deny her feelings that she had for Daemon. In way it was actually interesting and funny at same time, watching way that Katy would fail that she wasn\u2019t attracted to him, and it always seemed to happen in front of him. The scenes between two of them was hot, and I could tell that it got harder for Katy to deny her feelings for him and he knew it. I was curious when she would finally admit that he truly cared for her, and give in. Katy seemed pretty stubborn and in denial when it came to her feelings for him. Now Blake, I liked him at start, I was glad that Katy found someone she could have good time with, who was normal. Despite that, I felt like there was something about him, something off and it was reason that Daemon didn\u2019t trust him, not just because he was jealous. Once he attempted throw knife at her, I didn\u2019t like him that much. I kind of wished that Katy saw it as sign then, that he can\u2019t be trusted. Despite that, I could tell that Blake seemed to care for her. Because he was doing this for his friend, I couldn\u2019t seem to hate him.\nNow the ending, wow. I didn\u2019t expect for Adam to die. I got to say, I wasn\u2019t happy about that. He was the only one besides Dee that seemed to accept Katy. I actually cried once I realized that he was dead. Despite me not being fond of Andrew and Ash, I felt for them. I can\u2019t even begin to imagine, how it must felt to lose a loved one. Now Dee, I felt the worse for her, just when her and Adam finally got together and it looked like they truly liked each other too. I\u2019m curious if all of this is going affect Dee and Katy\u2019s friendship, I have feeling that it will and not in good way. I was glad that at least they were able to get Dawson back out of this, even if he was different but at least he was alive. I\u2019m curious what happens with Will, if mutation held and I am hoping for Daemon and Katy\u2019s sake that it did. If Dawson be same and he try to go find Beth.\nThis is series worth checking out, it will keep you on edge of the seat, till the end.",

        "raw_content": "3rd Book in New Agenda Series\nSimone Pond writes dystopian novels to let out her \"dark side.\" Her latest novel, THE MAINFRAME, is the third book in her New Agenda series. The first book in the series, THE CITY CENTER, was the recipient of a gold medal award from Readers' Favorite. Reviewers say her series represent \u201ca very different dystopia\u201d and \u201cunpredictable\u201d and \u201cunexpected.\u201d\nPond lives in Los Angeles with her husband. She has written a guide on how to hit the Amazon Kindle Top 100 and blogs at Simone Says. She is currently working on a book of short stories that tell about the event that caused the entire series of books.\nQ: Why do you choose to write dystopian novels? What inspired you to write the series, and specifically your newest novel THE MAINFRAME?\nSimone Pond: I have a dark side that needed to come out and writing is my favorite outlet. I got the idea for THE CITY CENTER when I was talking to my husband about cities in the future. I said, \u201cWhat if in the future people lived inside giant city centers that they thought were safe havens, but they were actually prisons?\u201d And he said, \u201cNow that\u2019s a good idea for a story. Have you seen Logan\u2019s Run?\u201d The seed was planted for my first book and the series just took off. For my newest novel, THE MAINFRAME, I thought it\u2019d be fun to see what my main character, Ava, would do if she had a rebellious daughter and how they\u2019d end up having to work together to fight the bad guy, Chief Morray.\nQ: Reviewers of the first two books in The New Agenda Series tout the books as \u201ca different dystopia\u201d and \u201ca very different dystopia,\u201d an \u201cunpredictable page turner\u201d and \u201cunexpected.\u201d What makes your series different and unpredictable from typical dystopian fiction\u2014if there is a \u201ctypical\u201d?\nSimone Pond: I jump around in time (over three hundred years), so the story doesn\u2019t just follow one main character in a series of chronological events. There\u2019s three hundred years of history that I\u2019m working with, as well as virtual realities. There\u2019s an entire universe to create several story threads. I have to find unique ways to tie everything together.\nQ: How do you make your series \u201cgripping?\u201d\nSimone Pond: I drop hints for the reader to pick up so they can start figuring out what\u2019s going to happen next.\nQ: Reviewers also tout your \u201cmemorable villain.\u201d What makes a good villain? Do you believe that you need an effective villain in order to have a hero, i.e., do you need a Chief Morray to create an Ava Rhodes?\nSimone Pond: I think we all have a dark side and for me what makes a good villain is someone you can sympathize with on some level, but also want to take down. Without Chief Morray pushing Ava, she would\u2019ve remained stagnant. He forces her to challenge herself and grow throughout the series. He\u2019s actually my favorite character, which is why I loved writing THE NEW AGENDA because it\u2019s about his youth and what turned him to the dark side.\nQ: Did you write The New Agenda Series to entertain or also to deliver a message? I noticed that several reviewers found your books \u201cthought provoking.\u201d\nSimone Pond: There\u2019s underlying social commentary threaded throughout the book series, as well as spiritual themes. I take it to the extreme so that my characters suffer the consequences of a future that has gone wrong. In a sense I\u2019m saying, \u201cHey do you all see what\u2019s happening around us? We are being controlled and manipulated and our freedom is slowly being taken away from us under the guise of protection. Where do you go for your strength? Who do you serve?\u201d\nQ: How do you draw readers to engage in your stories given that they are set in the future? What makes them credible? How important is believability?\nSimone Pond: I make sure my characters are relatable and have the same weaknesses and strengths, passions and desires all humans have. I think knowing your character down to his or her core is the most important thing. It\u2019s not how they react to the story plot, but why.\nQ: Why do you write a \u201cseries\u201d of books rather than unrelated standalone novels?\nSimone Pond: Originally, I was just going to write THE CITY CENTER, but in the middle of that draft I had the idea about going back three hundred years to Chief Morray\u2019s teen years (probably because of my love for S.E. Hinton). So I wrote THE NEW AGENDA. While I was writing that, the idea for THE MAINFRAME came to me.\nQ: How helpful is setting to telling your stories?\nSimone Pond: Setting is huge for my stories. The city centers are prisons made to look like utopias. The Outside represents freedom. These settings are integral layers that add to the theme of each novel.\nSimone Pond: I\u2019m currently working on a book of short stories about the Repatterning, which is the man-made apocalypse that set the entire book series into motion. I might continue with another book in the series. I\u2019m waiting to hear back from my main characters.\nQ: Tell us about Simone Pond. What do you like to do when you\u2019re not writing?\nSimone Pond: When I\u2019m not writing, I\u2019m thinking about writing . . . But to help pay my bills I freelance in advertising as a project manager. Other things I do? I start each day with a workout because it clears my head. I love having tea with close friends, taking walks with my dog, and hanging out with my husband. I love going to church, helping out friends and encouraging other writers.\nAs a young girl, Simone Pond loved writing in her journal and making up stories, but after reading S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders, everything changed. Amazed that a woman could write so convincingly from a teenage boy's perspective, Pond became determined to become a writer as well.\nIn 2013, Pond released THE CITY CENTER, the first book in her dystopian fiction series. A fast-paced tale of love and adventure that will appeal to young adults and seasoned readers alike. The second book in the series, The New Agenda, was published in May of 2014. THE CITY CENTER and THE NEW AGENDA are best sellers in Amazon's post-apocalyptic science fiction category, and THE CITY CENTER was the recipient of a gold medal award from Readers' Favorite.\nThe third book in the series, THE MAINFRAME, has just been released.\nPond currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their Boston Terrier. Learn more about her and her writing at Simone Says...\nBook III: THE MAINFRAME\nTHE MAINFRAME is the third book in the New Agenda series. Book three picks up in the year 2345, seventeen years after the disappearance of former city center leader, Chief Morray. There has been peace among the West Coast regions for years, but in Ojai Village there is very little peace between Ava and her sixteen-year old daughter Grace. Both have different ideas about what it takes to maintain independence. Ava spends hours inside the mainframe searching for Morray, while Grace focuses on the art of combat. Grace\u2019s dream is to get accepted into the Silicon Valley Academy and become a soldier like her father General Joseph Strader. During tryouts for the academy Grace comes across some digital footprints inside the mainframe, convincing Ava that Morray has returned to seek revenge and reclaim control. When Ava goes missing, Grace assembles a motley crew of cadets to go on a search and rescue mission up north in Seattle to save her mother and take down Morray. Grace soon learns that independence comes at a price.\nAva awoke from a deep sleep, feeling groggy and half drugged. Her temples throbbed and each cell dragged through her body. She didn\u2019t remember going to bed, or falling asleep. She especially didn\u2019t recall putting on a delicate nightgown of soft satin. She usually slept in a tank top. She sat up and looked around the room to get her bearings. Nothing made sense. Not the enormous king-size bed or the overstuffed feather comforters, or the chiffon canopy hanging over her head. She got out of bed and looked around the room to figure out where she was. Massive crystal chandeliers dangled from the vaulted ceilings. The room was far too opulent to be inside the academy. No, she thought, these chambers are fit for a queen. And she had been here before. A long time ago. A very long time ago. She went over to the windows and peered out to the vast green forest of trees that stretched across the Los Angeles basin all the way to the Pacific Ocean.\n\u201cImpossible,\u201d she whispered, leaning against the glass to keep from collapsing.\nThis was the same room at the Royal Palace where Morray had held her prisoner sixteen years ago. She stood by these same windows just before she made her speech and just before Joseph\u2019s men stormed the Arena and took down Morray. The walls shifted to gray, and the edges of the room closed in on her. She staggered over to the white lounger to sit down and catch her breath. How could she be sitting in a place that no longer existed? Years ago, the New Democracy had demolished the palace. She wondered if she were having a lucid dream or a very pronounced hallucination. It was too real to be a dream\u2013\u2013the intoxicating scent of jasmine, the cold marble floor under her bare feet, and the taste of bile in her throat\u2013\u2013but the room defied all logic. This had to be an outright lie. It had to be. There was only one explanation and one man who could concoct such a convincing falsehood . . . Morray.\nGold Medal Winner in Dystopian Fiction - Readers' Favorite Awards.\nThe year is 2328. City Center dwellers gossip about the upcoming celebratory Graduation Day. They anticipate the gaudy grandeur of the Successors vying for a spot in the Royal Court. Most of the citizens are rooting for the captivating and talented young Ava Rhodes to become the next Queen.\nAva cares little about the competition or the title: she\u2019d prefer to watch a virtual sunset or walk barefoot in the Garden sector. A week prior to Graduation Day she encounters Joseph, a rebel from the Outside, and discovers her utopian home is actually a prison and breeding facility aimed at designing the perfect human. She escapes with Joseph to the Outside world, sending the City Center\u2019s leader, Chief Morray, into an obsessive pursuit for his property. On the Outside, Ava must decide if she'll keep running, or go back and save her people from destruction.\nBOOK II: THE NEW AGENDA\nFor certain, society was disintegrating: humans were self-destructive and wildly uncontrolled. But young William Morray had hoped, as an idealistic teenager, that his father\u2019s acclaimed Repatterning Program\u2013\u2013a precursor to the brilliant New Agenda\u2013\u2013could manage the upheaval and get society back on track.\nThey said it was for the greater good: out of chaos comes order and from the ashes the phoenix will rise. They said the Repatterning was a positive event, but like most advertising, it was a lie.\nWilliam\u2019s wish had always been to work with his father and win his approval. However, when he is sent away to a remote underground safety shelter in Denver, William is awakened to the grisly truth that the Repatterning is a mass genocide. And worse: his father, the New Agenda leader, is the spearhead of this horrifying plan to eradicate all cities, homes and people outside of the Elite citizenship. William decides to team up with an underground rebel alliance to end the Repatterning and save what\u2019s left of civilization.\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/SimonePond\nlaurenne December 21, 2014 at 6:26 PM\nI've read all of these books, and I'm blown away by the creativity in each one.",

The school's catchment area will be divided between those of Helmsdale and Melvich Primary Schools.\nA copy of the consultation report, together with the original proposal paper and all relevant appendices can be viewed here www.highland.gov.uk/schoolconsultations.\nThe Council is satisfied that implementation of closure is the most appropriate response to the reasons for formulating the original proposal identified by the authority. The detailed rationale behind this decision is set out in the consultation report, which includes an explanation of the educational benefits that would arise from closure, as well as assessments of the community impact and the travel arrangements that would apply following closure.\nHighland Council officials have notified Scottish Ministers of the decision and provided them with a copy of the Proposal Paper and Consultation Report. They now have an 8 week period to decide if they will intervene by issuing a call-in notice. Within the first 3 weeks of that 8 week period, they will take account of any relevant representations made to them by any person on whether the decision should be called in, or not called in, for review by a School Closure Review Panel. All representations should be sent to the email address or the postal address below and the deadline for this is Wednesday 29 March 2017.\nAnyone wishing to make a representation to the Scottish Ministers is asked to email schoolclosure@gov.scot or write to the School Infrastructure Unit, Scottish Government, 2-D (S) Victoria Quay, Edinburgh EH6 6QQ, by midnight 29 March 2017 at the latest.",

I've said before it was a wonderful way to travel and an incredible place for two little girls to play. Running up and down the passageways, by the gift shop, across the wooden decks, out to the fantail to eat lunch. Glorious time.\n(Source: Paradise of the Pacific 1960, No. 11, Vol. 71) Click on image to see it larger.\nOnce you arrived on the island that was not your last encounter with the ships. As military families you always had friends coming and going so you often went back down to the Aloha Tower to see ships arrive or set sail. This meant you got to be part of the big party that took place on the docks. A small Hawaiian band would play, there were dancers, and best of all there were streamers. Those onboard would stand at the railing looking down on us and fling long streamers from the ship to the dock. Thousands of different colored tendrils were soon stretching across the expanse. My friend and I loved grabbing as many streamers as we could to make into a huge pile of paper to hide in. There was also always a man with a wide broom sweeping the paper into large piles making our \"job\" a lot easier. It was all giggles, colors, and noise. Grand times.\nHere is someone's home movie of the Lurline as it arrives in Honolulu.\nAnd this, though it has really dreadful music, also shows the fun of sailing on a Matson Liner. Why they chose this music, well who knows what they were thinking, It's an old travel film made back on the Mainland far away from the land of strumming ukuleles. Personally I don't remember any \"race horses\" when we were onboard, but I might be wrong. I think by the late 50s they'd done away with that. This was just a film to be shown to potential travelers. We weren't given a choice so we never saw any travel films. We were told \"You're going to Hawaii.\" Well actually my father was given a choice. It was Oahu or Kodiak, Alaska. My mother said \"NO!\" to Alaska. Good thing.\nLabels: 3-D ephemera, Aloha tower, cruise ship, Hawaii, Lurline, Matson Liner, vintage ad\nOld HAWAIIAN RECORD LABELS\nYes, I still have all of my Hawaiian 45 records, all in one of those little boxes with the handle on top. I haven't listened to these in years. I'm going to have to find one of those little plastic thingies for the center and take a listen again.\nSo for your viewing pleasure I give you the 49th State Record labels from the early 60s. But first here's a little history of the company:\nThe Legacy of the 49th State Hawaii Record label\nThe time was the mid forties, the place was Honolulu, and the person was George Ching. He was a proprieter of a record store in Hawaii's main city and he had an idea. Because of the many requests he had gotten (largely from servicemen returning home to the mainland) for recordings of Hawaiian music as keepsakes and momentos, he knew that there was not a serious outlet for local talent. Seizing this opportunity, Ching decided to start his own modest recording service to provide such an outlet, and making sure that he dealt in the best of the local talent available he enlisted the help of perhaps the single most important musician of his time, John K. (Kameaaloha) Almeida. John K. would serve as musical director, arranger, and of course, as an important performer for the fledgling enterprise. Searching for a name for the new company, Ching came upon one that looked to the future of the islands. With the end of World War II, there had been much talk of Hawaii becoming part of the United States, ending its days as a U.S. territory. And so, owing to the impending status of Hawaii, the new record label proudly named itself \"49th State Hawaii Records\". (Of course we know that the change in status took much longer than expected, and Alaska beat Hawaii to the 49th designation - but the \"49th State\" label remained and has gained in historical significance from that time)\nThe recording company had modest beginnings, as to be expected, but as it grew and the technology expanded and advanced, so did Hawaii's hometown record label. They amassed quite a catalog throughout the years, featuring many musicians in their formative stages, who went on to great success (Gabby Pahinui and Genoa Keawe to name a couple of obvious examples). From the mid forties into the fifties and beyond, the breadth and scope of the little label that could is remarkable. Moving from the original 78 rpm shellacs to the 45 and LP formats, the label kept a stream of important musical performances available to the public. As late as 1980, 49th State had a numerous catalog of re-released material on 45 rpm records (cleverly beginning with #49 and numbering more than 300 releases issued) and a wealth of music was available on LPs. Into the new milennium, we find the mid and late 40s sounds still available as a new generation of listeners seek out these snippets of Hawaii's musical legacy. Cord International has preserved a number of these titles in all their re-mastered glory on a number of CDs. And so, more than a half century later, the music that was the nucleus of an idea of George Ching for his little \"49th State Hawaii\" record label resonates once again. Mahalo, George, and John K., and all the performers that we enjoy once again! (SOURCE: Jaymar41)\nAnd here are a few other labels, including an Alfred Apaka from the Henry J. Kaiser Hawaiian Village label. For those people who have memories of old tv shows from the 50s and 60s, the show Hawaiian Eye was set at the Hawaiian Village hotel which eventually became the Hilton Hawaiian.\nThe song above was actually written by a family friend and my hula teacher, Maddy Lam. Maddy was inducted into the Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame in 2000. You can read more about Madeline Kaululehuaohaili Lam here. The last time I saw Maddy she was playing piano at the Halekulani. She was a beautiful woman and a kind soul.\nSit back, imagine the warm breezes blowing through the palm trees as you sit at the Halekulani watching the sunset. Everything else just drifts away. The beautiful voice of Alfred Apaka.\nUPDATE: A reader sent me the following information about some records he recently found.

I was lucky enough to be there for the event. At the time I wasn't aware of the real history of the islands and how statehood was not something welcomed by many of the Hawaiians themselves. How the US Government, the missionaries, and the wealthy white landowners had taken control away from Queen Lili\u02bbuokalani and the native people. It was all part of American expansion. It's not a pretty history for such a beautiful place. But if this history had not occurred I probably would have never lived there. I wouldn't give up my years there for anything. Hawaii was a magical place for a child.\nClick on image to see coin larger.\nI still remember when I moved back to the Mainland in the middle of the winter I arrived to my new school tan with no warm clothes to wear. For years I'd worn nothing heavier than a sweater if it got cool, which meant mid-70s. I was treated as an oddity by the other children because as far as they were concerned I had dropped out of the sky from a foreign place. Sometimes I still think people in this country forget that Hawaii is the 50th state, not a foreign country. I even heard so called television journalists berating the President when he took a vacation to the islands in the middle of last years election, saying he shouldn't be leaving the country to visit someplace so exotic. I just shook my head at their stupidity.\nSo here's to Hawaii and all of her people. Raise a toast to the Queen and wonder what the Islands would have been like if there were still a monarchy.\nLabels: 50th State, Hawaii, Queen Lili'uokalan\nAND WHAT DID YOU DO at the beach?\nThese illustrations are from the 1946 Scott, Foresman and Company Before We Read. And yes, this is the same Dick and Jane family, but in a little workbook. The whole gang is here except for Puff. Puff didn't get to go to the beach. Obviously Dick and Jane's folks weren't fools. Who would take a cat to the beach? I'm sure there is someone out there who has one leash trained that does very nicely on the beach, thank you very much. I had a cat that was leash trained. I don't care how odd it looked. It worked for me...except for when we took walks for him to go to the bathroom and all he did was dig a golf course. Then I'll admit, it looked really really stupid.\nThis book is virtually nothing but pictures. The only words appear at the end and they are...drum roll please...\"Dick\" and \"Jane\" repeated several times. Someday I'll scan those. Until then I thought we needed something a little summertime, a little bit of Dick and Jane at the beach. Can you say \"See Jane play. See Jane play with Spot. Run Spot run.\" I'm sure you can.\nLabels: 1946, Dick and Jane reader, ephemera, Foresman and Company, Scott\nTHINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT are just the construction crew\nIf you don't live in Northern California or have never visited here then there's a good possibility you've never heard of the Winchester Mystery House. If you're ever passing through San Jose make a point of stopping. You won't be disappointed if you like odd places or Victorian architecture run amok.\nI'll let Wikipedia give you a brief biography:\nThe Winchester Mystery House is a well-known California mansion that was under construction continuously for 38 years, and is reported to be haunted. It once was the personal residence of Sarah Winchester, the widow of gun magnate William Wirt Winchester, but is now a tourist attraction. Under Winchester's day-to-day guidance, its \"from-the-ground-up\" construction proceeded around-the-clock, without interruption, from 1884 until her death on September 5, 1922, at which time work immediately ceased. The cost for such constant building has been estimated at about US $5.5 million (if paid in 1922, this would be equivalent to almost $70 million in 2008 dollars). (SOURCE: Wikipedia)\nThe story long told is that following the death of her husband and daughter the distraught Sarah Winchester was told by a medium that there was a curse on the Winchester family because of all the people who had been killed by the guns made by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company (maker of the famous Winchester rifle).\nAlthough this is disputed, popular belief holds that the Boston Medium told Winchester that she had to leave her home in New Haven and travel West, where she must \"build a home for yourself and for the spirits who have fallen from this terrible weapon, too. You must never stop building the house. If you continue building, you will live forever. But if you stop, then you will die too.\" (SOURCE: Wikipedia)\nThis is the oddest house I've ever been in. Okay, \"odd\" really doesn't cover it. Staircases to nowhere. Doors that open onto solid walls. And a bathroom door for the servants that was glass because she didn't trust them. That has always stuck in my mind from the tour oh so long ago. She must have been a real delight to work for.\nThis little packet of photos dates back to the 1940s. The photos measure 3\" x 2\". I bought a similar pack in the 1960s.\nTo read more about the Winchester Mystery House visit their website.\nLabels: ephemera, San Jose, Sarah Winchester, Winchester Mystery House, Winchester rifle\nRaise your hand if you remember the Scholastic Book Club when you were in school. 4 books for 4 quarters, shipping included. What a deal! My allowance was up to 25 cents a week so that meant it took me a month to save up enough money. Of course during that month I'd also probably have bought some comic books, maybe walked to town to go see a movie, and stopped at the deli for a sandwich. Okay, so maybe it took me a few months to save enough for the four books. But I did manage to buy a few. My friend across the street bought some too and then we'd share so we'd feel like we'd gotten double the books. Of course she bought \"The Pink Motel\" and I didn't and I spent the next few decades hunting for the book.\nAnyway, if you remember this little club you know the sales page was in the middle of the Scholastic Reader handed out every so often by your teacher. You could take the reader home and pour over the two page spread trying to imagine which books you'd buy. Then on a specific day the teacher would take your order with your coins and in a few weeks a big box would arrive. Everyone who'd bought something was excited as the box was opened and the contents distributed. Those who hadn't bought anything could at least take solace in knowing for those moments no teaching was taking place so you were free to let your mind wander.\nThe spread below is from a SummerTime Scholastic Reader in 1963. Do click on it to see it larger so you can take a trip down memory lane and imagine placing your order.\nAnd now, for a few books I bought and one that was passed down to me from my best friend after it had been passed to her from her friend and before that someone else and before that...all the names written on the inside cover. By the time it got to me it was falling apart so I loaned it out to a few friends who gave it back lest they be the ones to have nothing but a stack of pages scattered across their floor.\nBig Read by Jim Kjelgaard, copyright 1945\nStrangely Enough by C.

Of course I would have wanted this!\nPractically Seventeen by Rosamond du Jardin, copyright 1943.\nUnlike a lot of the books marketed to kids today, parents knew with these that they were safe. For us they were fun. For today's kids they'd be a bore. I have to feel sorry for them. Too much, too soon.\nAnd from the almost always interesting Wikipedia I give you this little bit of history:\nIn 1920, Maurice R. \"Robbie\" Robinson founded the business he named Scholastic Publishing Company in his hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. As a publisher of youth magazines, the first publication was The Western Pennsylvania Scholastic. It covered high school sports and debuted on October 22, 1920.\nIn 1926, Scholastic published its first book, Saplings, which was a collection of selected student writings by the winners of the Scholastic Writing Awards.\nFor many years the company continued its focus on serving the youth market through the relatively low cost of magazine publication. So, even with the later transition into paperback books, the company continued under the name Scholastic Magazines, Inc., through the 1970s.\nAfter World War II, cheap paperback books became available. In 1948, Scholastic entered the school book club business with its division T.A.B., or Teen Age Book Club with classic titles priced at 25 cents.\nIn 1957, Scholastic established its first international subsidiary, Scholastic Canada, in Toronto.\nThe company published paperback books under its division Scholastic Book Services. These were offered to school students via classroom mail order catalogs, known as the Scholastic Book Club. Along with the New York and Toronto publishing locations, the division also expanded further internationally to operate in London, Auckland, and Sydney by the 1960s. By 1974, the paperback book division had expanded into Tokyo as well. (SOURCE: Wikipedia)\nAnd now, if you'll excuse me I'm going to go while away a few summer moments on the glider with The Pink Motel. No, this is not a Scholastic Book Club edition, but it was through them that I first read this book. I found it years ago at the Goodwill and grabbed it. I still love it several decades later and can't recommend it enough for children or anyone who likes to imagine themselves still a child.\nThe Pink Motel by Carol Ryrie Brink, copyright 1959\nLabels: children's books, ephemera, Scholastic Book Club, SummerTime\nBefore there was Mickey, there was Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Never heard of him? That's not surprising, but in his time Oswald was a big hit with his own merchandising.\nOswald was a character the Disney Studios created after Alice Comedies had run its course. The rabbit starred in a series of 26 animated black & white silent shorts (that were shown in major theaters with first-run movies) between 1927 and 1928. He also was the first Disney character to generate merchandise: a chocolate-covered marshmallow candy bar, a stencil set, and a pin-backed button.\nThe idea for this character came about when Disney's film distributor Charles Mintz (who was now married to Alice distributor Margaret Winkler) suggested a change in direction to keep his animated shorts fresh. Universal Studios was looking for a cartoon series featuring a rabbit and Mintz/Winkler suggested Walt Disney.\nOswald, created by Ub Iwerks and Walt, was a spunky & mischievous character with a personality and look that would later be reminiscent of a certain famous mouse. (In fact it's been said that Mickey Mouse is Oswald with round ears.)\nThe first Oswald cartoon Trolley Troubles, was released September 5, 1927. Oswald's clever gestures and amusing gags made him a favorite with moviegoers over the next 17 months.\nDisney, constantly striving for a higher quality, began producing Oswald cartoons that were costly. In February 1928 Walt traveled to New York to speak with Mintz about an increase in pay. To Walt's surprise, Mintz wanted to cut his pay by some 20%! In addition, he learned that Mintz controlled the rights to Oswald. Rather than accept the cut, Walt gave up his creation, making Mintz the first of many who believed they could assume Disney's success. (Mintz and Winkler eventually lost the character as well and Walter Lantz went on to animate Oswald well into the 1930s. Ironically Oswald would return to Disney in February 2006!)\nWalt learned from this loss and went on to create another successful character ... that no one would ever be able to take away. (SOURCE: This Day in Disney History)\nYou can read more about Oswald at Wikipedia, The Ultimate Disney, Disney Go Vault, and Lantz Golden Age Cartoons .\nNow, as to the ad shown below, it is from the November 1931 issue of Comfort. What can I say? Find the matching Oswalds and win $625 or a Ford Tudor Sedan. Where's the fine print? Oh, okay, the whole thing is the fine print. I especially love the line \"We do not accept answers from people outside U.S.A. or in Chicago.\"\nNow sit back and enjoy a little bit of Oswald, including his first appearance in film, Trolley Troubles. I really love the music in each of these. Then after the shorts get back to work trying to match the Oswalds above. And no, I don't have a Ford sitting in my driveway waiting to be given away to the winner.\nLabels: animated character, ephemera, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Walt Disney\nBoy oh BOY-AR-DEE!\nOkay, before you even think it...yes, I know, this stuff didn't taste anything like a real pizza. I know that. This was standby food. My mother kept things like this and boxes of Kraft macaroni and cheese in the cupboards at the cabin in case we got snowed in. The walk from the cabin to the car during the winter was around 1/2 mile. Then you had to put the chains on to drive over the summit to a store which was around 10 miles away. So processed foods were fine and dandy when it was storming outside.\nWhen my father sold the cabin we had to go through everything, over 30 years worth of stuff, and either toss it or put it in the U-Haul and bring it home. You can see where my priorities were. I brought home some great stuff.\nWhat I find most fascinating about this is what's missing, besides a bar code. If this product were made today there's an ingredient that would be here. This proves it's not needed. See if you can guess what it is.\nNow, why did I save this? 99% of the population would call it trash. I look at it differently and not just because I like ephemera. My degree is in graphic design. I've always been attracted to all sorts of design, and old package design has always fascinated me. I had the opportunity to go into advertising after college, but wisely said no. I'm far too cynical about advertising and I wouldn't have lasted long. My big mouth would have eventually gotten me into trouble with some client, or the rolling of my eyes. Publishing was a much better fit for me. And freelance design is even better because I can roll my eyes without any client seeing me. So that's my reason and I stand behind it. I look at this box and think \"there but for the grace of God go I.\" I could have been stuck somewhere pasting-up mechanicals for Chef Boy-ar-dee boxes.\nUnlike Betty Crocker, Chef Boyardee, actually Ettore Boiardi, was a real person so the image you see on the box is real. He died in 1985. Betty Crocker went through a variety of images over the years, constantly being \"updated\" to fit the current \"image\" of women. I especially loved the uptight one with the business suit and puffy tie. Boiardi stayed true to his image and I believe his image is still used on the products bearing his name, which most likely now contain the dreaded ingredient not in this package.\nTo see some print advertisements for Boy-ar-dee products, including the pizza, click here.\nLabels: Chef Boy-ar-dee, pizza\nBy the sea, by the sea, BY THE BEAUTIFUL SEA\nWhy do people on the East Coast say they're going to the shore when they go to the ocean and why do people on the West Coast say we're going out to the coast? I always get such a kick out of hearing my relatives and friends in Pennsylvania say they're going to the shore. It sounds so turn of the century.\nThis box was most likely purchased at the shore in the 1950s. Specifically Ocean Beach, Maryland shore. I'm not sure of it's age. I do recall at one point it was a button box and contained all sorts of lovely buttons that I'd dump out and play with as a child. Now it's just a box that I keep in a special cupboard where I store old tins and what-nots. I just went in search of the button jar where most of the old buttons have been stored for the past few decades. I decided to take out the ones that spark special memories and put them in a jar on my bookshelf. Funny how little buttons can bring back so many memories.\nThis company, Dolle's Salt Water Taffy, is still in business. I have no idea if I ever went there, but I do have memories of going to the boardwalk as a child and playing on the beach. I remember having one of those little plastic Cupie dolls on a stick with feathers sticking out of it and one of the monkey's that you'd wind up and it would play cymbals. Alas, they never came out of storage (Sneer here!) along with my Mouseketter ears. I know, let it go. It's been decades.\nLabels: Dolle's Salt Water Taffy, ephemera, Ocean Beach Maryland\nBefore there was Big Pharma was there a little guy in an apartment somewhere with a sure fire cure for warts-aches-pains-lumbago-diabetes-rheumatism-moles-hair loss-asthma, etcetera, etcetera, ecetera? Looking through these ads from the 1931 issue of Comfort you'd think so. All you had to do was write them and they'd send you information about their miracle cure. Now we have big 4 color ads in magazines and nonstop tv commercials. Will any of today's ads be kept as ephemera? Will any of them be lumped in with old fashioned snake oil sales? I can think of quite a few.\nHere, for your viewing pleasure, a variety of the tiny ads that were grouped throughout the back of this issue of Comfort. How many sick people were taken for a ride by these companies? How many people spent part of their meager income hoping for relief? Today instead of writing for information we're repeatedly told \"Ask your doctor!\" So start scrolling and scrolling and scrolling and then ASK YOUR DOCTOR!\nMy favorite line is \"If you're feeling sour and sunk and the world looks punk...\"\nBut I guess my favorite is just an old home remedy sent in by a reader, a cure for corns.

Sell enough and they could get cash or \"prizes.\" One of the companies was Wilson Chemical Company located in Tyrone, Pennsylvania. They manufactured a salve called White Cloverine. Wellllllllllll...my best friend sent me what she called a \"Summer Fun Box\" that arrived yesterday. No, it wasn't a case of salve. Much better. It's a box full of ephemera. Old photos, TV Guides, clippings, and a periodical called Comfort published in Augusta, Maine in November 1931. Ohhhhhhh, heart be still...it's a treasure trove and over time I'll feature a lot of the ads within. But first I give you the Wilson Chemical Company redux.\nNow remember, this is during the Depression so kids and adults were looking for anyway possible to make money. This wasn't some snot nosed kid in a stripped t-shirt in the 50s or 60s with time on their hands wanting a Roy Rogers Flash Camera or thinking if they knocked on enough doors they'd get a free pony. This was far more serious business.\nYou know, someone must have been able to get these prizes or this company couldn't have stayed in business for so long pushing the same idea to kids. I still keep hoping someday someone out there in the net world will find this post and give us a story about what it was like to actually collect on this.\nUPDATE: Reader Dave Williams has provided the following interesting link with more information about the Wilson Chemical Companies sales practices, especially during the Depression:\nhttp://www.appalachianhistory.net/2012/05/kids-get-rich-selling-cloverline-salve.html\nLabels: Comfort, ephemera, White Cloverine Salve, Wilson Chemical Company\nTHE PALMER FAMILY loved Camel's, but not each other\n\"Of course is I smoke Camel's. . .\" Miss Dorothy Paine \"They're the most popular cigarettes--every one is smoking them now,\" continued this alert young member of New York's inner circle. \"Camels have such a grand smooth flavor. I suppose that's because they have more expensive tobaccos in them. And they never make my nerves jumpy. When I'm tired out and my nerves feel frazzled, then a Camel gives me a nice gentle 'lift' that restores by enthusiasm.\" The reason you feel better after smoking a Camel is because it releases your latent energy, which overcomes fatigue. When you feel tired, you can always get a pleasant, natural \"lift\" by enjoying a Camel. And you can smoke as often as you wish, for Camels never upset the nerves.\nNow exactly who was Mrs. Potter d'Orsay Palmer, aka Maria Eugenia Martinez de Hoz? Well she was the 2nd wife of Potter d'Orsay Palmer, playboy son of the wealthy Palmer family of Chicago's Palmer House Hotel. She apparently came from a very wealthy family of landowners in Argentina (if you speak Spanish perhaps you can find some information here). They divorced in 1937 and by December 1938 Mr. Potter Palmer divorced his 3rd wife, Pauline Warren. Maria Eugenia Martinez de Hoz seems to have disappeared from history, at least from what I find online. He married wife number 4 a couple days after his divorce from wife number 3. According to Ancestry.com Maria received a sizable divorce settlement, something the next two Mrs. Potter's did not:\nUPDATE as of 4.25.11: I have heard from Mar\u00eda Eugenia Mart\u00ednez de Hoz granddaughter, Matilde, with the following information. Sometimes the net really amazes me. Thanks Matilde. I appreciate this information. It allows your grandmother to be more than just a photo in an old ad. Thanks!\nMar\u00eda Eugenia Mart\u00ednez de Hoz, that's my grandmother. She divorced him, came back to Argentina, fell madly in love with my grandfather and they lived between Buenos Aires and a farm in C\u00f3rdoba were they raised my dad and uncle. Two boys. My grandfather was another playboy in a way, but much closer to nature that Potter was to booze. He was the kind of person that reminds you of fireworks when he is laughing and making you laugh. He had a gift for making people adore him. She didn't get a penny. She died young and wanted to live longer. If she had lived 6 months longer she would have inherited something from the Palmers since her Mother in Law adored her. But she never cared much, she only wanted to survive some more weeks to get to know her first grandchild, my cousin Mart\u00edn. She didn't make it. But I guess she found love. We know her as \"Beb\u00e9\". \u2014 Matilde LLamb\u00ed\nTHE PALMER FAMILY loved Camel's, but not each othe...\nThe more things change the more THEY REMAIN THE SA...\nTHINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT are just the cons...",

        "raw_content": "I'm in the middle of reading a couple of things that I thought I'd share with you. I'm still recuperating from the wedding weekend and we have a house guest in the form of a Great Pyrenees this week, so I'm a little slow on my reading, forgive me.\nMy aunt gave this too me to read I'm about 2/3rd of the way through and I like it.\nGoodreads has mixed reviews on it at polarizing ends too. They are either obsessed with the series (didn't realize it was legit series I just thought it was stand alone) or they tore the book apart. (someone stated they burned it which was a bit melodramatic in my opinion) Right now I haven't gotten to any \"romantic\" parts which is what has everyone in a tizzy, but am enjoying the peek into Scottish history which I know nothing about.\nI'm reading this along with a group on Goodreads.\nActually, I'm listening to it on audiobook. I had to read Tolstoy in high school and I knew from experience I'd give up on actually reading it pretty quick. I do still tend to tune out parts of the book where he launches into his theorizing on economics and class, though interesting, they get tedious. That aside I'm enjoying the story and the characters thus far.\nI've read/listen to a lot of Sherlock Holmes short stories but never any of the novels. This series of graphic novels has interested me for awhile and this one just happened to be at the library last week...\nI'm planning on making lots of progress on all of these this week and have summaries as well as some opinions on Romance and the Classics.\nLabels: A Study in Scarlet, Anna Karenina, Current Reads, not reading, Outlander",

        "raw_content": "Fr Sam Medley speaks to priests on the Theology of the Body\nFr Sam Medley SOLT spoke to the Association of Priests for the Gospel of Life today on the theology of the Body of Blessed Pope John Paul. He spoke with eloquence and erudition, making for one of those days when you go away knowing more than you did when you arrive (a useful success criterion for priests' Study Days, I think.)\nThe first lecture looked at the philosophical and theological influences in Blessed Pope John Paul's life, at the structure and principal topics of the Theology of the Body General Audience addresses, and the impact that this development can have in pastoral life. Fr Medley also addressed the concerns that priests have about the presentation of the theology of the body in which inappropriate images are used such as describing the Song of Songs as the \"centerfold\" of the bible. He made it clear that such images find absolutely no justification in the addresses of Blessed Pope John Paul.\nAfter lunch, the lecture was more personally focussed and looked especially at the way in which the Theology of the Body can help priests to understand celibacy within the plan of God and live it joyfully. One of the priests present (several decades ordained) told me that it was the best presentation of celibacy that he had heard in his life.\nRobert Colquhoun gave great assistance in the organisation of the day. Robert blogs at Discover Happiness and has enthusiastically promoted the 40 Days for Life initiative in London. The next 40 days begins on Wednesday 28 September. Priests are always most welcome at the vigils; in God's providence there are often more \"turnarounds\" when a priest is there quietly praying. If you can find the time and energy, you may be God's instrument to save a life.\nI hope to make the text of Father Medley's first lecture available on the internet for you to download. In the meantime, here are a couple of links that he recommended:\nIf you wish to study the General Audience addresses in which Pope John Paul elaborated the Theology of the Body, it is best to get Michael Waldstein's critical translation which is published by Pauline Books with the title \"Man and Woman He Created Them. A Theology of the Body.\" The Study Day was held in the new underground hall at St Patrick's, Soho Square. the facilities there are impressive and versatile. It is a good venue for an event like ours but is also used for direct charitable work, providing food for the hungry. The Church is also beautiful after its renovation. I'll do a separate post with some photos.",

        "raw_content": "So. Adventureland.\nI liked it much better than I thought I would. The director, Greg Mottola, worked at an amusement park on Long Island in his youth, and he really captured the tedium and soul-sucking nature of the job. The kids with their life ahead of them, trying to figure out their place, trying to live up to their parent's expectations, or free themselves from their parents' mistakes. Wondering if they'll ever get out of Pittsburgh. Get to New York. Get the girl. Figure out who they are, who they want to be. Figure out that the strangely clean and well groomed maintenance guy is full of crap- he never jammed with Lou Reed and he's never going to leave his wife, in fact he'll never leave Adventureland, because that is where he's the king.\nIt's not a new story Mottola's telling, but he tells it well. And he fills it with great little touches- like the flirty hot girl isn't called Lisa- she's Lisa P. Because in a place like Adventureland, there's always going to be people with the same first name. Or when James, the protagonist, bursts into the manager's trailer trying to escape an angry patron, and without speaking, or even looking up, Kristen Wiig's character throws Bill Hader a baseball bat and he runs out to confront the problem. It's a dance they've done before.\nMottola did a Q & A after the screening and talked about how he had to fight to keep it a period piece, which was one of my favorite aspects of it, since it really put it in an almost parallel timeline with my Park experience. And Adventureland is the type of park that doesn't exist anymore. Besides, setting the film in the '80s allowed them to start off the film with the Replacements' Bastards of Young. In fact, the soundtrack (and Yo La Tengo's score) was dead on throughout.\nExcept for the roadhouse jukebox that featured the Velvet Underground. Emotionally, it worked, but VU in a bar like that? Never. The coolest thing you'd get is Neil Young.\nAdventureland opens Friday. Hopefully, it will screen at the drive in.\nLabels: adventureland, therese's posts\nOh great, someone beat me to the Park movie. Though this looks more like Bowcraft than the Park:\nI pledge to you, Dear Reader, that I will go see this film and offer my professional opinion on the staff's shenanigans.\nPosted by therese at 10:04 PM No comments:\nLabels: therese's posts, youtube",

        "title": "5 Things to Consider when Facing a Terminal Illness in a Pet | The Green Hound",
        "raw_content": "As pet owners, we understand that we will likely outlive the lives of our pets. What we don\u2019t know is how they will die and what decisions we will face as they enter the end of their journey. In some cases, we will be faced with very difficult decisions as we receive the news that our pet has a terminal illness. Perhaps this will mean that no further treatment is recommended but with advances in veterinary care, we will often be given options that could extend our pets lives with some quality of life. I was recently faced with this situation when my 7-year-old greyhound was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, bone cancer. As I reflect back on our journey through this disease, I wish there were things I had known prior to taking the journey. The following are five important things to consider when facing a terminal illness in your pet.\nUnderstand your pet\u2019s limits, general health & personality. As a long time greyhound owner, I knew the odds of me adopting a greyhound that would eventually be diagnosed with osteosarcoma was better than 50%. I had seen many friends and many amazing pups fight the fight with varying results. Sadly, the first decision I had to make for Tucker was whether to amputate his leg. By removing the limb, you are removing the pain. By choosing not to amputate, the prognosis is very poor and the remaining time would be spent taking medications to try and control the pain. I had always said I could never amputate but also often asked myself what I would do if I was really faced with this decision. With Tucker, it boiled down to this:\nLocation of the tumor. Tucker\u2019s tumor was in his rear leg close to the ankle. This was not a usual location for this disease. I convinced myself this was a good thing. I had also read that the further the tumor was from the lungs, the better the prognosis. Only if the tumor had been on his toes could the tumor had been further away. I also felt that I had caught the tumor early. There was no swelling and in fact, Tucker was barely limping. In general, it is the spread of cancer to the lungs that makes osteosarcoma a terminal illness but Tucker\u2019s chest x-rays were clear. No sign of metastasis. In addition, I felt a rear leg amputation would be easier than a front leg. There are varying thoughts on whether this is true.\nTucker\u2019s personality. Tucker was the most uncoordinated dog I have ever met and certainly didn\u2019t live up to the image of a \u201cgraceful\u201d greyhound. I often joked that Tucker had absolutely no awareness of all his body parts. This picture, albeit a bit blurry, shows Tucker the first week he lived with me \u201cthinking\u201d he was laying on the couch, completely unaware half of his body with still on the floor. So when I decided to move ahead with the amputation, I joked that he would likely do better with one less leg to worry about and in fact, he actually did do stairs better on three legs. Tucker was full of life and curious about everything around him. He would plow into a crowd, dive into people\u2019s purses and bags and be the first to greet new people. A trip to the vets was an opportunity for him to explore new areas and meet new people.\nTucker\u2019s general health. Aside from cancer, Tucker was very healthy. He was strong. I had seen dogs post amputation of a rear leg and I felt Tucker could handle it. He had a crazy appetite and never missed a meal so I wasn\u2019t worried about him not eating during the treatments. Later I learned that having a good appetite prior to treatments was not always an indicator it would remain the same. He was also young. How could you not give a 7-year-old an opportunity to have more life? I felt justified in my decision but this was a double edged sword as it appears the younger the dog at diagnosis, the more aggressive the disease.\nUnderstand the costs. We are lucky that we live in an era where our pets can receive almost the same level of medical care as humans. While this is great news, it also comes at quite a cost. When I adopted my first greyhound, I knew I never wanted to be faced with having to make a decision about my pet\u2019s care based on how much money I had in the bank so I have always carried health insurance on my pets. To date, no insurance company has ever made any money off me and there are days, I actually wish they would because it would mean I had a healthy pup. If you don\u2019t carry insurance, I recommend you check out www.petinsurancereview.com. If you do have a policy or are going to purchase a policy, make sure you know what it covers. While I knew the amputation would run into the thousands of dollars, I didn\u2019t understand the cost of all the follow-up care. For some reason, I felt uncomfortable discussing it with his oncologist and even still, it was unclear as it was not known what path his cancer would take. Below is a general recap of the cost of Tucker\u2019s care during his 10-month journey.\nBone Biopsy \u2013 $1,200. Due to the location of the tumor, we decided to do a biopsy as it could have been an infection or cancer that did not require amputation.\nAmputation Surgery \u2013 $3,200.\nChemo Treatments \u2013 $3,000. I was actually able to secure free chemo for Tucker\u2019s first three chemo treatments but you still need to pay the office visit and administration costs. The biopsy of Tucker\u2019s leg initially showed no lymph node involvement but after closer examination, they found cancer in his lymph nodes at a microscopic level. After the first three treatments (8 weeks post amp) we did a chest x-ray and found a lung tumor so we switched chemo drugs for another three treatments.\nX-rays, blood work, and regular check-ups \u2013 $3,500. This was over the course of his 10-month journey. He had x-rays every 6 to 8 weeks where he would need to be sedated given his size and general stubbornness about cooperating. Chemo was every three weeks and then we moved to visiting the vet once a month for lab work and general check ups.\nMedications \u2013 $4,000. This is where knowing your insurance policy became important to me. I had decided not to include the rider for prescription coverage. After we switched chemo drugs and did another three rounds, we found a second tumor on his lung. Our last option was to try a new at home drug called Palladia which was recently approved by the FDA. While not generally used for osteosarcoma, they were beginning to see some results for dogs who had lung metastasis such as Tucker. Pfizer is the only company that manufactures this drug and word on the street is they are losing money on this drug so the cost is high. Given Tucker was a large dog, he needed a large dose and this drug alone cost $500/month and he was on it for 6 months but it did stabilize the tumors. I had no idea drugs could be this expensive.\nCT Scan & Radiation \u2013 $3,700. When we made the change to Palladia, Tucker began experiencing jaw pain. While there was some thought that it could be cancer had spread to the jaw, it seemed very unlikely so we started giving him a NSAID every other day and the pain went away. Tucker had a great 4-5 months on Palladia. Only later did we learn, the pain was, in fact, being caused by a new tumor in his jaw so we discussed the option of radiation providing some pain relief for a few months. I really struggled with this decision the most. Cancer in three known parts of his body. We weren\u2019t winning this battle and he was beginning to become extremely fearful of car rides and vet visits. But then I saw this, as seen in the video below. This is Tucker the day before his radiation began. This just did not look like a dog who was ready to give up.\nFinal cost \u2013 $18,100. I was lucky to have had insurance. I was lucky his policy renewed midway through his illness as his policy only covered $10,000 annually ($50,000 for a lifetime) of an illness. I was lucky I had a $300 annual deductible and a 10% copay. For things not covered by insurance, I charged them to my Care Credit card which offers promotional time periods to repay balances interest-free. Tucker had three weeks following the radiation but we could not control the pain. When he would no longer eat, I was no longer able to administer the pain medication that would provide relief and quality of life. Exactly 10 months post amputation, Tucker lay peacefully in the sunshine of my backyard, his kingdom, and his journey ended.\nDealing with terminal illness takes time. When you are faced with a situation like terminal illness, I believe you go into survival mode and are forced to just live in the moment. There are no promises or guarantees. You take each step as it comes to you. My first focus was on the actual amputation surgery. I am the sole provider for my pets so this meant I needed to be prepared to stay with him around the clock during much of his recovery. I was fortunate to have a friend help my bring him home and another friend to manage my other two pups as we got him settled. I moved a mattress downstairs and slept on the floor next to him for two weeks. It would be four days before I would leave him alone for even short periods of time. I just stayed focused on getting through those two weeks of healing, adjusting to three legs, administering medications and changing routines. I scheduled his first oncology visit and chemo treatment for two weeks post amp to correspond with the removal of the stitches. There would then be vet visits every three weeks for chemo treatments. I also enrolled him in a vaccine trial at Yale University where we had to make four trips to CT (6 hours round trip). Aside from all the visits, there was the change to routines and schedules. The hours spent trying to find things Tucker would eat following chemo treatment, the general rehab. If you are going it alone, make sure you have a good network of friends and family\nThink about your family, including other pets in your household. A terminal illness will upset your world and routine. Your priorities will shift and your emotional state will be fragile. There is no way that this will not impact others in your household. I have two other greyhounds. Thunder, a nine-year-old who had been with me for five years and Tica, who had joined my pack just a year earlier. Tica was from Spain where she had a tough life and had several emotional scars. The year previous had been all about helping Tica adjust to a very new life. Tica & Tucker had a love-hate relationship. I think she was madly in love with him and was your typical bratty little sister who couldn\u2019t care less that Tucker had hundreds of stitches or wasn\u2019t feeling well. As the attention shifted from her to Tucker, she became my biggest challenge as she just wouldn\u2019t leave him or me alone. I couldn\u2019t figure out if she was bothering him or amusing him. She was constantly under foot as I tried to assist him with adjusting to life on three legs. She was at her worst during the days Tucker didn\u2019t feel like eating. Tica\u2019s past life clearly involved long periods of time without food. Her drive for food is over the top and it\u2019s hard to calm her down when there is food around. I remember one night sitting on the floor in the family room with an entire rotisserie chicken in my lap, tearing off pieces and hand feeding them to Tucker with one hand and using the other hand to fight off Tica. I finally resorted to setting up an x-pen around Tucker, myself and the chicken to keep Tica away. Her reaction was to scream non-stop, bringing my blood pressure to its boiling point and stressing Tucker out to the point where he refused to eat. This is just one example of many where life just couldn\u2019t be understood by all involved and I felt like crawling under a rock to hide from what my life had become.\nUnderstand your limits. Many will not understand your decision to move ahead and some might think such horrific efforts to keep a dog alive are unnecessary and ridiculous. How could you possibly consider removing a dog\u2019s leg? How could this possibly be a good use of money? You are only thinking of yourself and not your dog\u2026..and so on. I estimate that probably only 10% of my friends and family agreed with my decision. Of the 90% who didn\u2019t 40% probably supported it anyway. While they wouldn\u2019t make the choice themselves, they didn\u2019t have an issue with my choice. The remaining 50% disagreed completely and some, but not all, kept their opinions to themselves. You need a thick skin to get through this. The reality is no one is wearing your shoes. No one knows your dog and your relationship with your dog like you do. No one\u2019s opinion really matters except your own. I did find, however, this put me in a very lonely place. I was overwhelmed with the constant care, worry, and decisions that I had to make on a regular basis. I truly felt I was in this alone but I thought I could handle it. Until the end.\nAs I began to sense Tucker was beginning to experience more pain and less energy, I became obsessed with needing to know how he was going to die. In fact, I knew how he was going to die. I was going to make the decision but what would be the indicators that would allow me to find some peace. I so feared living the rest of my life with regret because I made a bad decision. Seems silly now. There are no bad decisions when you are losing a pet and there will always be some regret. The end result is all the same. I remember discussing this with one of Tucker\u2019s vets and she was brutally honest. She told me it was going to be hard and I needed to think about MY limits. At first, I was insulted. This wasn\u2019t about me, it was about Tucker\u2019s limits. But was it really? Tucker was going to die. I could have chosen to let him die months earlier and it would not have been a wrong decision. I am the one making decisions for him and I will need to live with my decisions for the rest of my life. Nothing I can do will keep him alive forever. I now believe what she was saying was that I needed to find my own peace and understand that it would not come without pain.

First up is the new dramatic thriller Self/Less from director Tarsem Singh (Immortals, Mirror Mirror), starring Sir Ben Kingsley (Schindler\u2019s List, Shutter Island) and Ryan Reynolds (Safe-House, Woman in Gold). The film comes from screenwriting brothers David and Alex Pastor (Carriers, The Last Days) and also stars Natalie Martinez (End of Watch, Broken City) and Matthew Goode (Watchmen, The Imitation Game). You can watch the trailer above. Also coming out this week is a new horror flick, The Gallows, following a group of high school students who attempt to pay tribute to a horrific accident that took place at the school 20 years earlier, only to find the spirits of those dead still remain in the shadows. I\u2019m sure you have already seen a bunch of previews for this one on TV, and while it entails new subject matter, it looks essentially like a Blair Witch Project meets Michael Myers mix, with relatively unknown actors and producers. That being said, this is the kind of movie you should definitely watch in the theaters for the full effect, so find yourself a date and enjoy!\nThis entry was posted in Film and tagged Alex, ben, blair, broken, carriers, City, david, days, end, gallows, Game, Gold, goode, House, imitation, immortals, in, island, kinglsey, Last, less, list, martinez, matthew, Michael, Mirror, myers, natalie, of, pastor, Project, reynolds, ryan, safe, schindler's, self, shutter, singh, sir, tarsem, the, Watch, watchmen, witch, woman on July 7, 2015 by Carnahan.",

        "raw_content": "I put my pictures in a separate entry. Here\u2019s the deets on the reason for the trip.\nBack in January, I took the online Jeopardy! test. I\u2019ve taken it the last couple of years. Don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve passed it before \u2014 usually there are too many sports or bible questions, which are my Kryptonite. I think I lucked out this time with my standard \u201cif it\u2019s a basketball question, the answer is Kobe Bryant\u201d approach. Because I\u2019m pretty sure it actually was Kobe Bryant.\nAnyhoo, got an email back in March letting me know I\u2019d passed the test, and I\u2019d been chosen randomly from among the test-passers to go to the in-person audition. I immediately wrote back saying yes, please, thank you. Booked the vacation time, booked a cheap hotel (well, cheap for the Miami beach area) and this past Thursday, we hit the road.\nWe killed thousands of lovebugs on the way down. The trip was a little over 200 miles each way, and I have to admit, I\u2019m not up to distance driving anymore. It\u2019s hard to believe that back in 2007, we drove anywhere from 9 to 13 hours per day to get from Seattle to Orlando in 6 days. Even 4 hours on the road (we made several stops to clean off bug bodies) is too much now.\nGot to our hotel, checked in, scouted the area. Hoofed over to the Atlantic:\nThen we rustled up some dinner, and visited a local mall so I could look for a shirt. I\u2019d brought a shirt with me, but I wasn\u2019t entirely happy with it \u2014 the paperwork asked for us to dress as we would if we were appearing on Jeopardy!, so I wanted to make sure I looked the part. Happily, I found a great item on the clearance rack at The Limited \u2014 a dark blue button-down. Plain and classy.\nBack to the room, and then we suited up and visited the pool for some night swimming. Not only did we have a pool and a whirlpool available, but there were also ladders down to the Intracoastal Waterway. Scott wouldn\u2019t let me even climb down and dip my toe in, since it was 8 to 10 feet down a slimy ladder into questionable and very dark public waters. Full of wildlife. Oh well.\nFriday, we kicked around the room for much of the morning, and managed to catch some Lazy Town dubbed into Spanish (WTF that show, I don\u2019t even know) and part of The Abyss (in which the effects don\u2019t hold up). Then I put on my fancy pants (and new shirt, and shoes with heels), we checked out, and we ambled down to the Westin.\nScott set up with his gadgets and headphones in the beautiful lobby, and I headed upstairs. There were a couple of guys there already, but I was one of the first, since I\u2019m always way too early for everthing. I filled out my application form, with full disclosure that I work for WDW (the rules state that nobody can be on the show who works for CBS/Sony Pictures, but this application also asked about anyone working for ABC (Disney), NBC (Universal), or any local TV stations. So I don\u2019t know what kind of grey area I\u2019m in as far as eligibility.\nEventually, there were 20 of us. Some dressed appropriately, some not so much. A t-shirt with a cute skirt? Not good. Ren-faire-inspired clothes? Not good. A ratty, beat-up golf shirt \u2014 well, at least it had a collar. But not good. We got checked in, had our Polaroids taken, and moved into the conference room. The casting folks, all very nice, talked a little about what to expect in the audition, and then we took the written exam. Just like the online test, it was a 50-question exam, with 8 seconds to answer eash question. They collected our tests, went out to score them, and the room exploded into \u201cwhat was the answer to this one?\u201d\nWe\u2019ll never find out our scores, by the way. It\u2019s totally pass/fail \u2014 get 35 or more right, you pass. 34 or less, you fail. Period. And I think I cut it pretty close. I aced the pop music and movies stuff, but there were some sports and poetry and such that I know I got wrong.\nEither way, pass or fail, nobody found out their results. We all moved on to the mock game, and they explained that the audition process used to have everyone who failed go home, but they decided to invite fewer people and let them experience the entire process instead. I applaud the choice. So onward to the fake game! We got up in groups of three, and got to use the genuine buzzers. I\u2019m delighted to say, I got the country music question correct. A fluke!\nAt the end of a dozen or so questions, we got to do a little one-to-two minute interview. And I know I aced this part \u2014 clear eye contact, enunciation, personality. It was kind of shocking to me how many people mumbled their answers while staring at the wall above the casting peoples\u2019 heads. But I guess the ultra-smart sometimes aren\u2019t known for their social skills.\nThey asked me what I do at WDW, and I told them that I host a game show about Velcro. At which, the other woman in my group laughed out loud and said, \u201cOh my god, that\u2019s where I know you from! We did that show when we went to Epcot for my birthday!\u201d As they say, it\u2019s a small world after all.\nIt took a little over 2 hours for everything, then we were set free. I gathered up Scott, changed out of my fancy duds into shorts, and we hit the road back to Orlando. We could have stayed another day, but we opted to get back home so we could have a leisurely Saturday off here. And happily, there were a LOT fewer lovebugs on the way home. I don\u2019t know if the swarm moved on, or if they\u2019re more active in the mornings, or what. But we didn\u2019t have anywhere near the same death counts on the return trip.\nSo now, the waiting game. None of us will know if we passed the test or not, or if we made the contestant pool or not, until we maybe possibly get a phone call at some point in the next 18 months inviting us to LA to appear on the show. So for all I know, I\u2019m in. But for all I know, I failed the test. Or it may be that my employer eliminates me from consideration. I\u2019m not going to wait by the phone with bated breath; if a call comes, it\u2019ll just be a fantastic surprise.\nIn the meantime, we had a fun road trip with many a laugh, and I got to walk on some beach. And have a fun experience that few people get a chance to have.\n\u00ab Trip to Miami \u2013 Photos!\nThe Best Roller Skating Movies Ever Made \u00bb\nSo exciting! What an adventure\u2026I\u2019ll keep my fingers crossed for you.\nninja 650 lady\nHow does donating money to a foster home help them?\nSent from my iPhone 4G\nSo not only a nonsense spam (with the sender\u2019s spammy URL removed), but one boasting to have come from the iPhone 4G?

You could just do massive action and blow up stuff, but he chose to do the characters more, although he had some beautiful stuff in there.\u201d\nOn What He Thinks About Zack Snyder Getting The Job Of Director:\n\u201cWell, I think he could do a great job. You know he\u2019s certainly a good director and hopefully he\u2019s got a good handle on it.\u201d\nOn How Zack Snyder Should Handle The Balance Of Action And Drama:\n\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s going to want to compete with the best effects out there.

In the case of Conan, three movies across two franchises and not a one is considered true to the character. Then there is Solomon Kane. His movie is out in theaters now despite being filmed over three years ago.\nNow I have just started reading some Solomon Kane, so I will say this. The movie is brutal but it holds close to the books at least as far as I can tell.\nWhile this could have descended into the pits of hell know only as \"made for the SciFi channel\" this is actually a very good movie. James Purefoy is almost Hugh Jackman like in his portrayal of Kane.\nThe build up to the end is slow, but it starts with a very bloody fight, so it does pull you right in.\nWhile it could be classified as horror, dark fantasy might be a better term for it.\nKaiju said...\nStill waiting to see this. It's not playing in any of our local theaters, and not on Netflix (yet).\nSolomon Kane is one of my favorite Howard characters, so I'd be eager to read what you think of the stories when you are finished.\nWe caught this on Xfinity (Comcast cable) just a few weeks ago, and I've gotta say that opening scene is metal. At many points during the movie, I found myself thinking, \"You know, I could put a scene like this into my game.\"\nThere are lots of billowing cloaks, and Kane himself has a very cool hat. If you do get a chance to see it, Kaiju, you might like it. The gamers in my group who've seen it enjoyed it.\n(New commenter -- found my way here through RPGBloggers.com)",

        "title": "ARIANNA HUFFINGTON - The Sleep Revolution - Hardcover",
        "raw_content": "Co-founder and editor in chief of The Huffington Post Arianna Huffington shows how our cultural dismissal of sleep as time wasted compromises our health and our decision-making and undermines our work lives, our personal lives--and even our sex lives in this New York Times bestseller.\nWe are in the midst of a sleep deprivation crisis, with profound consequences to our health, our job performance, our relationships and our happiness. What we need is nothing short of a sleep revolution: only by renewing our relationship with sleep can we take back control of our lives.\nIn The Sleep Revolution, Arianna explores all the latest science on what exactly is going on while we sleep and dream. She takes on the sleeping pill industry, and all the ways our addiction to technology disrupts our sleep. She also offers a range of recommendations and tips from leading scientists on how we can get better and more restorative sleep, and harness its incredible power.\nThe result is a sweeping, scientifically rigorous, and deeply personal exploration of sleep from all angles, from the history of sleep, to the role of dreams in our lives, to the consequences of sleep deprivation, and the new golden age of sleep science that reveals the vital role sleep plays in our every waking moment and every aspect of our health--from weight gain, diabetes, and heart disease to cancer and Alzheimer\u2019s.\nIn today's fast-paced, always-connected, perpetually-harried and sleep-deprived world, our need for a good night\u2019s sleep is more important--and elusive--than ever. The Sleep Revolution both sounds the alarm on our worldwide sleep crisis and provides a detailed road map to the great sleep awakening that can help transform our lives, our communities, and our world.\n\u201cArianna shows that sleep is not just vital for our health, but also critical to helping us achieve our goals. Sometimes we need to sleep in to lean in!\u201d\n-- Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook COO and author of Lean In\n\"Arianna Huffington is one of our leading authorities on the life well-lived. In this passionate, deeply researched book, she reveals everything you need to know about the magic elixir of sleep: from how to get enough, to why it matters. I dare you to read this book and carry on depriving your body (and soul) of the nightly nourishment it so desperately needs.\"\n-- Susan Cain, co-founder of Quiet Revolution and author of Quiet\n\u201cIn this very thorough and highly readable book, Arianna Huffington explains the history, nature, and science of the sleep problem: why so many people today do not sleep well. And she gives us solutions in the form of evidence-based advice about what to do and what not to do to enjoy the restorative sleep we need. I recommend The Sleep Revolution highly.\u201d\n-- Andrew Weil, MD, author of Fast Food, Good Food\n\u201cArianna Huffington has written a book of profound importance. From time to time we'll all find sleep comes hard. For many, it is a constant struggle. Taking Arianna's wise advice to rebuild your relationship with sleep\u2014 to befriend rather than struggle with it\u2014 will transform your life, putting you back in touch with your more compassionate and intelligent self.\u201d\n-- Mark Williams, Emeritus Professor of Clinical Psychology, University of Oxford and Co-author of The Mindful Way Workbook\n\u201cThe message of Arianna Huffington\u2019s compelling book won me over: You can be your own Prince Charming. You can empower yourself with knowledge\u2014 knowledge in this book\u2014 to wake yourself up. And then, use that knowledge to put yourself, every night, into a sleep that is healthy and restorative!\u201d\n-- Sherry Turkle, Professor of the Social Studies of Science and Technology, MIT and author of Reclaiming Conversation\n\"Is inadequate sleep the new smoking? Ms. Huffington tackles the issue of our deteriorating sleep hygiene and its serious health and performance consequences in a comprehensive, engaging, and accessible book. A must read for everyone burning the candle on both ends.\u201d\n-- Gene Block, Chancellor of UCLA, and Distinguished Professor of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences\n\u201cScience and experience proves it: the foundation of a happy, healthy, energetic, and productive life is a good night\u2019s rest\u2014yet for many of us, it\u2019s hard to turn out the light and turn off our brains. The Sleep Revolution is an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to build the crucial habit of sleep.\u201d\n-- Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project\n\u201cPropelled by cutting-edge science and brimming with wisdom and wit, The Sleep Revolution is the single best book about sleep in years. An extraordinary achievement.\u201d\n-- A. Roger Ekirch, author of At Day\u2019s Close: Night in Times Past\n\u201cIn her new book, The Sleep Revolution, Arianna Huffington draws on a remarkable breadth and depth of science, literature, spirituality, and story to remind us that sleep is not just a restorative, but a threshold to the resources of life that wait below our noise. By looking honestly into her own journey, Arianna uncovers important markers in the human journey through detailed research, knit together in a way that broadens our foundation. The chapters \u2018Sleep Throughout History\u2019 and \u2018Dreams\u2019 are, by themselves, an invaluable contribution to our modern consciousness. The Sleep Revolution unravels the tense threads we tangle ourselves in, giving us a chance to re-engage the forces that sustain us. This book won\u2019t just help you sleep better; it will enliven you while you\u2019re awake.\u201d\n-- Mark Nepo, author of Inside the Miracle, The One Life We\u2019re Given, and The Book of Awakening\n\u201cCount on Arianna Huffington to write a book on sleep that kept me up at night. The Sleep Revolution is invaluable, interesting, and ultimately necessary for us all. It explains why we are so tired and how that has to change. Here is the science, history, and culture of the role that sleep plays in our lives \u2014and the role that it should really play.\u201d\n-- Atul Gawande, MD, MPH, Surgeon, Researcher, and Author of Being Mortal\n\u201cA lucid, compelling, and rational narrative on the importance of sleep to our mental, emotional and physical health. In The Sleep Revolution, Arianna Huffington exposes the dangers of our modern-day attitude towards sleep and advocates for a renewed emphasis on the importance of sleep to our well-being. It is nothing short of a call to arms for policy makers, CEOs, parents, educators, hospital administrators, and coaches to confront the fact that insufficient sleep is a modern-day health crisis.\u201d\n-- Patrick Fuller, Associate Professor of Neurology, Harvard Medical School and Deaconess Medical Center\n\"This is one of those books that, if you don\u2019t read, when you\u2019re dead you\u2019re really going to wish you had. I never thought I would have needed a self-help book for sleep, but I did! Sleep is everything \u2013 that\u2019s my takeaway, and so you better know how to do it.\"\nOUR CURRENT SLEEP CRISIS\nSarvshreshth Gupta was a first-year analyst at Goldman Sachs in San Francisco in 2015. Overwhelmed by the hundred-hour workweeks, he decided to leave the bank in March. He soon returned, though whether this was a result of social or self-inflicted pressure is still unclear. A week later, he called his father at 2:40 a.m. saying he hadn\u2019t slept in two days. He said he had a presentation to complete and a morning meeting to prepare for, and was alone in the office. His father insisted he go home, and Gupta replied that he would stay at work just a bit longer. A few hours later, he was found dead on the street outside his home. He had jumped from his high-rise building.\nDeath from overwork has its own word in Japanese (karoshi), in Chinese (guolaosi), and in Korean (gwarosa). No such word exists in English, but the casualties are all around us. And though this is an extreme example of the consequences of not getting enough sleep, sleep deprivation has become an epidemic.\nIt is a specter haunting the industrialized world. Simply put: we don\u2019t get enough sleep. And it\u2019s a much bigger problem\u2014with much higher stakes\u2014than many of us realize. Both our daytime hours and our nighttime hours are under assault as never before. As the amount of things we need to cram into each day has increased, the value of our awake time has skyrocketed. Benjamin Franklin\u2019s \u201cTime is money!\u201d has become a corporate-world mantra. And this has come at the expense of our time asleep, which since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution we have treated like some dull, distant relative we visit only reluctantly and out of obligation, for as short a time as we can manage.\nBut scientists are resoundingly confirming what our ancestors knew instinctively: that our sleep is not empty time. Sleep is a time of intense neurological activity\u2014a rich time of renewal, memory consolidation, brain and neurochemical cleansing, and cognitive maintenance. Properly appraised, our sleeping time is as valuable a commodity as the time we are awake. In fact, getting the right amount of sleep enhances the quality of every minute we spend with our eyes open.\nBut today much of our society is still operating under the collective delusion that sleep is simply time lost to other pursuits, that it can be endlessly appropriated at will to satisfy our increasingly busy lives and overstuffed to-do lists. We see this delusion reflected in the phrase \u201cI\u2019ll sleep when I\u2019m dead\u201d has flooded popular consciousness, including a hit Bon Jovi song, an album by the late rocker Warren Zevon, and a crime film starring Clive Owen. Everywhere you turn, sleep deprivation is glamorized and celebrated: \u201cYou snooze, you lose.\u201d The phrase \u201ccatch a few z\u2019s\u201d is telling: the last letter of the alphabet used to represent that last thing on our culture\u2019s shared priority list. The combination of a deeply misguided definition of what it means to be successful in today\u2019s world\u2014that it can come only through burnout and stress\u2014along with the distractions and temptations of a 24/7 wired world, has imperiled our sleep as never before.\nI experienced firsthand the high price we\u2019re paying for cheating sleep when I collapsed from exhaustion, and it pains me to see dear friends (and strangers) go through the same struggle. Rajiv Joshi is the managing director of the B Team\u2014a nonprofit on whose board I serve, founded by Richard Branson and Jochen Zeitz to help move business beyond profit as the only metric of success. In June 2015, he had a seizure at age thirty-one during a B Team meeting in Bellagio, Italy, collapsing from exhaustion and sleep deprivation. Unable to walk, he spent eight days in a hospital in Bellagio and weeks after in physical therapy. In talking with medical experts, he learned that we all have a \u201cseizure threshold,\u201d and when we don\u2019t take time to properly rest, we move closer and closer to it. Rajiv had crossed his threshold and fallen off the cliff. \u201cThe struggle for a more just and sustainable world,\u201d he told me when he was back at work, \u201cis a marathon, not a sprint, and we can\u2019t forget that it starts at home with personal sustainability.\u201d\nAccording to a recent Gallup poll, 40 percent of all American adults are sleep-deprived, clocking significantly less than the recommended minimum seven hours of sleep per night. Getting enough sleep, says Dr. Judith Owens, the director of the Center for Pediatric Sleep Disorders at Boston Children\u2019s Hospital, is \u201cjust as important as good nutrition, physical activity, and wearing your seat belt.\u201d But most people hugely underestimate their need for sleep. That\u2019s why sleep, says Dr. Michael Roizen, the chief wellness officer of the Cleveland Clinic, \u201cis our most underrated health habit.\u201d A National Sleep Foundation report backs this up: two-thirds of us are not getting enough sleep on weeknights.\nThe crisis is global. In 2011, 32 percent of people surveyed in the United Kingdom said they had averaged less than seven hours of sleep a night in the previous six months. By 2014 that number had rocketed up to 60 percent. In 2013, more than a third of Germans and tw-thirds of Japanese surveyed said they do not get sufficient sleep on weeknights. In fact, the Japanese have a term, inemuri, which roughly translates as \u201cto be asleep while present\u201d\u2014that is, to be so exhausted that you fall asleep in the middle of a meeting. This has been praised as a sign of dedication and hard work\u2014but it is actually another symptom of the sleep crisis we are finally confronting.\nThe wearable-device company Jawbone collects sleep data from thousands of people wearing its UP activity trackers. As a result, we now have a record of the cities that get the least amount of sleep. Tokyo residents sleep a dangerously low 5 hours and 45 minutes a night. Seoul clocks in at 6 hours and 3 minutes; Dubai, 6 hours and 13 minutes; Singapore, 6 hours and 27 minutes; Hong Kong, 6 hours and 29 minutes; and Las Vegas, 6 hours and 32 minutes. When you\u2019re getting less sleep than Las Vegas, you have a problem.\nOf course, much of this can be laid at the feet of work\u2014or, more broadly, how we define work, which is colored by how we define success and what\u2019s important in our lives. The unquestioning belief that work should always have the top claim on our time has been a costly one. And it has gotten worse, as technology has allowed a growing number of us to carry our work with us\u2014in our pockets and purses in the form of our phones\u2014wherever we go.\nOur houses, our bedrooms\u2014even our beds\u2014are littered with beeping, vibrating, flashing screens. It\u2019s the never-ending possibility of connecting\u2014with friends, with strangers, with the entire world, with every TV show or movie ever made\u2014with just the press of a button that is, not surprisingly, addictive. Humans are social creatures\u2014we\u2019re hardwired to connect. Even when we\u2019re not actually connecting digitally, we\u2019re in a constant state of heightened anticipation. And always being in this state doesn\u2019t exactly put us in the right frame of mind to wind down when it\u2019s time to sleep. Though we don\u2019t give much thought into how we put ourselves to bed, we have little resting places and refueling shrines all over our houses, like little doll beds, where our technology can recharge, even if we can\u2019t.\nBeing perpetually wired is now considered a prerequisite for success, as Alan Derickson writes in Dangerously Sleepy: \u201cSleep deprivation now resides within a repertoire of practices deemed essential to survival in a globally competitive world. More so than in the time of Thomas Edison, depriving oneself of necessary rest or denying it to those under one\u2019s control is considered necessary to success in a 24/7/365 society. Americans have a stronger ideological rationale than ever to distrust any sort of dormancy.\u201d\nAnd Americans are anything but dormant. From 1990 to 2000, American workers added the equivalent of another full workweek to their year. A 2014 survey by Skift, a travel website, showed that more than 40 percent of Americans had not taken a single vacation day that year. Much of that added work time has come at the expense of sleep. Dr. Charles Czeisler, the head of the Division of Sleep and Circadian Disorders at Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital in Boston, estimates that in the past fifty years our sleep on work nights has dropped from eight and a half hours to just under seven. Thirty percent of employed Americans now report getting six hours of sleep or less per night, and nearly 70 percent describe their sleep as insufficient. Getting by on less than six hours of sleep is one of the biggest factors in job burnout.\nAnd for far too many people in the world, the vicious cycle of financial deprivation also feeds into the vicious cycle of sleep deprivation. If you\u2019re working two or three jobs and struggling to make ends meet, \u201cget more sleep\u201d is probably not going to be near the top of your priorities list. As in the case of health care, access to sleep is not evenly\u2014or fairly\u2014distributed. Sleep is another casualty of inequality. A 2013 study from the University of Chicago found that \u201clower socio-economic position was associated with poorer subjective sleep quality, increased sleepiness and/or increased sleep complaints.\u201d But the paradox here is that the more challenging our circumstances, the more imperative it is to take whatever steps we can to tap in to our resilience to help us withstand and overcome the challenges we face. There\u2019s a reason we\u2019re told on airplanes to \u201csecure your own mask first.\u201d\nWhere we live can also affect our sleep. \u201cI have never seen a study that hasn\u2019t shown a direct association between neighborhood quality and sleep quality,\u201d said Lauren Hale, a Stony Brook University professor of preventive medicine. If you\u2019re living in a neighborhood with gang warfare and random acts of violence, sleep will inevitably suffer\u2014yet another example of sleep deprivation\u2019s connection with deeper social problems.\nTHE COST OF LOST SLEEP\nIt is industrialization, for all its benefits, that has exacerbated our flawed relationship with sleep on such a massive scale. We sacrifice sleep in the name of productivity, but, ironically, our loss of sleep, despite the extra hours we put in at work, adds up to more than eleven days of lost productivity per year per worker, or about $2,280. This results in a total annual cost of sleep deprivation to the US economy of more than $63 billion, in the form of absenteeism and presenteeism (when employees are present at work physically but not really mentally focused). \u201cAmericans are not missing work because of insomnia,\u201d said Harvard Medical School professor Ronald C. Kessler. \u201cThey are still going to their jobs, but they\u2019re accomplishing less because they\u2019re tired. In an information-based economy, it\u2019s difficult to find a condition that has a greater effect on productivity.\u201d\nSleep disorders cost Australia more than $5 billion a year in health care and indirect costs. And \u201creduction in life quality\u201d added costs equivalent to a whopping $31.4 billion a year. A report, aptly titled \u201cRe-Awakening Australia,\u201d linked lack of sleep with lost productivity and driving and workplace accidents. In the United Kingdom, a survey showed that one in five employees had recently missed work or come in late because of sleep deprivation. The researchers estimated that this is equivalent to a loss of more than 47 million hours of work per year, or a \u00a3453 million loss in productivity. And almost a third of all UK employees reported feeling tired every morning. Yet, though awareness is spreading, few companies have given sleep the priority it deserves, considering its effects on their bottom line. In Canada, 26 percent of the workforce reported having called in sick because of sleep deprivation. And nearly two-thirds of Canadian adults report feeling tired \u201cmost of the time.\u201d\nIt turns out that women need more sleep than men, so the lack of sleep has even more negative mental and physical effects on them. Duke Medical Center researchers found that women are at a greater risk for heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, and depression. \u201cWe found that for women, poor sleep is strongly associated with high levels of psychological distress, and greater feelings of hostility, depression and anger,\u201d said Edward Suarez, the lead author of the study. \u201cIn contrast, these feelings were not associated with the same degree of sleep disruption in men.\u201d\nAs women have entered the workplace\u2014a workplace created in large measure by men, which uses our willingness to work long hours until we ultimately burn out as a proxy for commitment and dedication\u2014they are still stuck with the heavy lifting when it comes to housework. The upshot is that women end up making even more withdrawals from their sleep bank. \u201cThey have so many commitments, and sleep starts to get low on the totem pole,\u201d says Michael Breus, the author of Beauty Sleep. \u201cThey may know that sleep should be a priority, but then, you know, they\u2019ve just got to get that last thing done. And that\u2019s when it starts to get bad.\u201d\nAccording to Dr. William Dement, the founder of the Stanford Sleep Disorders Clinic (the first of its kind), working mothers who have young children at home have seen an additional 241 hours of work and commuting time added to their lives annually since 1969.\nSarah Bunton, a mother and cognitive-skills trainer, described her experience on The Huffington Post: \u201cDo you ever have one of those days where you want to hit pause? Let me rephrase: do you ever have a day where you don\u2019t want to hit pause? . . . There really isn\u2019t an end of the day for most moms, working or otherwise. There\u2019s usually not a beginning, either, just a continuation of whatever chaos preceded the momentary silence . . . Mommy wants a nap.\u201d\n\u201cLet\u2019s face it, women today are tired. Done. Cooked. Fried,\u201d wrote Karen Brody, founder of the meditation program Bold Tranquility. \u201cI coach busy women and this is what they tell me all the time: \u2018I spent years getting educated and now I don\u2019t have any energy to work.\u2019\u2009\u201d\nDr. Frank Lipman, the founder of the Eleven Eleven Wellness Center in New York, sees so many patients who are sleep-deprived and exhausted that he came up with his own term for them. \u201cI started calling these patients \u2018spent,\u2019 because that was how they seemed to me,\u201d he writes. He compares this to his time working in rural South Africa: \u201cThere I saw many diseases arising from poverty and malnutrition but I didn\u2019t see anyone who was \u2018spent,\u2019 as I do today in New York.\u201d\nGetting and spending, we lay waste our powers . . .\nFor this, for everything, we are out of tune.\n\u2014William Wordsworth, \u201cThe World Is Too Much with Us\u201d",

        "title": "Surrender to the Void: Julieta",
        "raw_content": "Based on a collection of short stories entitled Runaway by Alice Munro, Julieta is the story of a woman who just found the whereabouts of her long-lost daughter as she reflects on her past and the events that would shape her life. Written for the screen and directed by Pedro Almodovar, the film is a drama where a woman is eager to reconnect with her estranged daughter as well as deal with the past as the titular character is played by Emma Suarez and Adriana Ugarte in their respective roles as the older and younger version of the character. Also starring Inma Cuesta, Dario Grandinetti, Daniel Grao, Michelle Jenner, and Rossy de Palma. Julieta is a ravishing yet chilling film from Pedro Almodovar.\nThe film follows the life of a woman who has been disconnected from her daughter for 13 years as an encounter with a friend of her daughter gives her news about her daughter\u2019s whereabouts. This revelation would prompt Julieta to look back at her life from the moment she would meet the man who would be the father of their child to the tragedy that would shape everything. Pedro Almodovar\u2019s screenplay would base itself on three different stories Alice Munro as it is largely told in a reflective manner by the older Julieta as she writes her story dating back to the 1980s where she was just a literature substitute teacher where she met Xoan (Daniel Grao) on a train to Madrid where Julieta encountered something horrible that would bring her and Xoan together. It\u2019s among these series of intense moments that would affect Julieta as she would spend much of the first act with Xoan at his seaside home where he\u2019s a fisherman while they would have a daughter in Antia with the help of a friend of his late wife in Ava (Inma Cuesta) and a longtime family maid in Marian (Rossy de Palma).\nThe second act isn\u2019t just about the dysfunction in Julieta\u2019s family life but also the events that would cause this slow rift between her and Antia (Priscilla Delgado) which would be set in Madrid for the film\u2019s second half as Antia becomes close with her friend Beatriz (Sara Jimenez) whom she met at a summer camp. When Antia (Blanca Pares) gets older, things get more troubling as it would lead to Antia disconnecting herself from Julieta causing all sorts of things for the film\u2019s third act. Especially when Julieta would find a new love in Lorenzo (Dario Grandinetti) as she tries to not think about Antia until her encounter with Beatriz (Michelle Jenner) that changes everything. All of which would play into not just the sense of guilt that looms throughout Julieta but also grief as she would lose a lot in her life where she becomes unsure if she wants to re-establish contact with Antia.\nAlmodovar\u2019s direction is definitely exquisite as it features images and compositions that are gorgeous as well as capture so much into the frame. Shot partially on Madrid with other locations in Rias Altas, La Sierra in Huelva, Pantcosa, Fanlo, and the Pyrenees Mountains, Almodovar creates a film that is quite rich in not just the different locations in Spain but also a film that showcases the different lifestyles that Julieta would endure for much of her life. While the older Julieta is seen mainly in Madrid living in somewhat-posh apartments and later returning to the more quaint apartment she had years earlier when she was living with Antia. Almodovar\u2019s usage of the wide shots play into some of the locations as well as a few scenes at some of the homes that Julieta would go including her family country home during a visit to her parents. Yet, Almodovar would favor more intimate shots with the usage of close-ups and medium shots as he would go into great detail for the former in some shots.\nThere are moments in the film that do contain some element of surrealism such as the scenes on the train where Julieta and Xoan watch a stag chasing the train while Almodovar would employ some tracking shots and intricate compositions in where to place the actors in a shot. There is something masterful in the compositions that Almodovar creates as it captures so much detail into a shot as well as shooting different scenes on a particular location to play into this idea of the past and the guilt that Julieta carries as she reflects on the mistakes she made in her life as well as tragedy. Even as Almodovar is willing to do something simple as well as keep things in the open as it\u2019s all about what is next step in Julieta\u2019s life. Overall, Almodovar crafts an intoxicating yet haunting film about a woman looking back at the tragedies that would affect her life and relationship with her daughter.\nCinematographer Jean-Claude Larrieu does amazing work with the film\u2019s very colorful and lush cinematography that feature a lot of natural images for the daytime exterior scenes with some low-key lighting for some of the interiors and scenes set at night. Editor Jose Salcedo does excellent work with the editing with its usage of jump-cuts in some parts of the film as well as some straightforward cutting to play into the drama. Production designer Antxon Gomez, with set decorator Federico Garcia Cambero and art director Carlos Bodelon, does brilliant work with the look of the different homes that Julieta had lived in throughout her life to the posh look of the apartment she shares with Lorenzo to the quaint apartment she lived in with Antia as well as the home near the sea. Costume designer Sonia Grande does fantastic work with the costumes from the clothes that Julieta wore during the 80s and 90s to a more reserved look once she is in her 40s and 50s as it help play into the evolution of her character.\nMakeup designer Ana Lopez-Puigcerver does nice work with the makeup from way Julieta looked like early on her young life with the different hairstyles and such as well as the look of Marian. The special effects work of Kings Abbots and Eduardo Diaz do terrific work with some of the film\u2019s minimal visual effects as it is mostly set-dressing for a few shots revolving around the sea. The sound work of Sergio Burmann is superb for its natural approach to the sound as well as some of the sound effects that play into some of the key moments of the film. The film\u2019s music by Alberto Iglesias is incredible as it features a mixture of piano-based music and heavy orchestral music that help broaden the drama as well as some of the film\u2019s darker moments as it is a major highlight of the film.\nThe casting by Eva Leira and Yolanda Serrano is wonderful as it feature some notable small roles from Mariam Bachir as the maid for Julieta\u2019s parents, Priscilla Delgado as the young Antia, Sara Jimenez as the young Beatriz, Pilar Castro as Beatriz\u2019s mother Claudia, Ramon Agirre as a landlord of the apartment that Julieta used to live with Antia, Nathalie Poza as the head of a spiritual retreat compound that Antia went to before she disappeared, Joaquin Notario as Julieta\u2019s father, Susi Sanchez as Julieta\u2019s Alzheimer-stricken mother Sara, and Blanca Pares as the 18-year old Antia who would go on a spiritual retreat and never return without explaining to anyone including her own mother. Rossy de Palma is fantastic as Marian as Xoan\u2019s longtime family maid who watches over everything as well as keep some very dark secrets relating to Xoan as well as some things she would tell Antia. Michelle Jenner is superb as Antia\u2019s longtime childhood friend Beatriz who would have an encounter with Julieta as she would eventually tell her some things about Antia and why they became estranged.\nDario Grandinetti is excellent as Julieta\u2019s current lover in Lorenzo whom Julieta would meet in life through mutual means as he wonders why Julieta has suddenly changed their plans to move to Portugal. Inma Cuesta is brilliant as Ava as a friend of Xoan who was close to Xoan\u2019s late wife as she would befriend Julieta as well as provide some information about what Marian told Antia later in the film. Daniel Grao is amazing as Xoan as a fisherman who would meet Julieta at a train as they fall in love and have a family as he\u2019s this quiet man that loves to fish as he also keeps some secrets from Julieta. Finally, there\u2019s Adriana Ugarte and Emma Suarez in phenomenal performances in their respective roles as the younger and older version of the titular character. Ugarte brings an anguish and melodrama to her approach as the young Julieta as a woman trying to find herself and be a working mother as well as cope with the tragedies in and around her life. Suarez\u2019s performance as the older Julieta is more reserved as someone who has been through a lot yet there is a sequence that showcases the sense of hurt and anger as someone who felt betrayed and heartbroken.\nJulieta is a spectacular film from Pedro Almodovar that features sensational performances from Emma Suarez and Adriana Ugarte in the titular role. Along with its gorgeous visuals, top-notch technical work, a sumptuous score by Alberto Iglesias, a great supporting cast, and an engaging take on grief and guilt. It\u2019s a film that explores loss in a lot of ways as well as a woman dealing with the events in her life and wondering what she could\u2019ve done to change them. In the end, Julieta is a tremendous film from Pedro Almodovar.\nPedro Almodovar Films: Pepi, Luci, Bom - Labyrinth of Passion - Dark Habits - What Have I Done to Deserve This? - Matador - Law of Desire - Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown - Tie Me Up!

        "title": "Battle of Fort Anderson",
        "raw_content": "North Carolina Coast and Civil War\nFort Anderson was an earthen fort located in the lower Cape Fear Region of North Carolina. Constructed at Brunswick Town, in Brunswick County, Fort Anderson was a crude dirt and sand fortress used by the Confederates during the American Civil War (1861-1865). As part of the Cape Fear Defense System, Fort Anderson was one of many forts located along the waterways and designed to defend the Cape Fear River inlets and Wilmington upriver. Earthen batteries of the fort were used as platforms and shields for the Confederate cannons. Beneath some of its earthworks were \"bombproofs,\" shelters used by troops during enemy bombardment. The Confederacy decided to build forts on the Cape Fear River to protect the port of Wilmington from the Union blockade. During the Civil War, blockade runners brought supplies such as iron, guns, and ammunition to the Confederacy. The primary purpose of Fort Anderson was to protect the port city of Wilmington by hindering the movement of Union ships, and to serve as a debarkation point for blockade runners fortunate enough to make it up the mouth of the Cape Fear River. Fort Anderson was built on the ruins of Brunswick Town and was originally named Fort St. Philip, after the ruins of the Revolutionary period church nearby. The name was soon changed to honor Col. George B. Anderson.\nIn January and February 1865, when the Federals captured Fort Fisher and Wilmington to cut the Confederate supply line to Virginia, Confederate forces under Gen. Johnson Hagood retreated to Fort Anderson from Fort Fisher. The Federals soon followed and found Gen. Robert F. Hoke\u2019s Confederates entrenched from the fort west to Orton Pond. For three days, Union Gen. Jacob D. Cox demonstrated in front of the fort and Gen. Hoke\u2019s troops, had gunboats in the river shell the fort, and marched a flanking force around Orton Pond to attack the fort\u2019s unprotected rear. During the early morning of February 19, as the attack began, Hagood evacuated Fort Anderson, and the Federals immediately occupied it.\nFort Anderson Historical Marker\nCivil War Battle of Fort Anderson, North Carolina\nBy 1864, only the Confederate capital of Richmond was more important to the fledgling nation than the port of Wilmington, N.C. The Cape Fear River was vital to blockade running ships, bringing vital supplies into the interior of the Confederacy, trade, and access to railroad lines to the various fronts throughout the South.\nThere were two paths to gain access to the Cape Fear and Wilmington: Old Inlet, to the south and west of Bald Head Island, and New Inlet, formed during a major hurricane in 1769, to the north of Bald Head Island. Forts Caswell, Campbell, and Battery Shaw on Oak Island, along with Fort Holmes on Bald Head Island guarded the Old Inlet entrance to Cape Fear. Fort Fisher was built on Federal Point to guard the New Inlet, and it was considered impregnable by both the Union and the Confederacy. Interior river fortifications leading up to Wilmington included Fort Johnston (renamed Fort Pender in 1864), a number of earthen batteries, and Fort Anderson.\nIn 1862, it was decided that another fort would be built on the location of the old colonial Brunswick Town to aid in the defense of the precious port, Wilmington. \u201cBrunswick struck [Brig. Gen. Samuel Gibbs] French as an ideal site to build a fortification. Although the Cape Fear River was more than a mile wide at that point, low bluffs overlooked the river\u2019s narrow channel, which ran within a few yards of the west bank. A battery on high ground, French believed, would command both the river traffic and the western land approaches to Wilmington.\u201d\nMaj. Thomas Rowland was charged with construction of the fort, which he called Fort St. Philips, after the ruins of St. Philips Church, which sat within the fortification's walls. Rowland took up residence at nearby Orton Plantation, while he supervised the construction of Fort St. Philips. The fortifications consisted of two earthenwork batteries. Battery A ran parallel to the Cape Fear. Wooden barracks were built in a safe area behind the battery. Battery B ran perpendicular to the Cape Fear, extending from the river to the walls of St. Philips Church. \u201cHigh buffer mounds were erected behind this battery which was equipped with 32 pound guns. A breech loading weapon with a long-range firing capacity was also used. This was the Whitworth gun, several of which were brought from other forts in the area. Other guns in the fort were three rifled 32 pounders, six smoothbore 32 pounders, and three smoothbore 24 pounders.\u201d The fortifications extended westward beyond smaller ponds, until they reached the larger Orton Pond. The fort was subsequently improved and enlarged while under the commands of Maj. William Lamb and Maj. John J. Hedrick. On July 1, 1863, the name was changed to Fort Anderson to honor Brig. Gen. George Burgwyn Anderson, who had been mortally wounded at Antietam.\nFort Anderson Civil War Map\nLocated in North Carolina, Confederate Fort Anderson was a large earthen fort that guarded the port of Wilmington, on the western bank of the Cape Fear River Defense System. After the fall of nearby Fort Fisher in January of 1865, Fort Anderson was bombarded and seized by Union troops during their march to capture Wilmington. Its beautifully preserved coastal defenses were built atop the ruins of colonial Brunswick town. During the Civil War, there was also Union Fort Anderson, aka Deep Gully, on the north bank of the Neuse River directly opposite New Bern. The Union fort, located in Craven County, was flanked on both sides by swamps and was approachable only in front along a narrow causeway.\nThe battle of Fort Anderson did not begin until after Fort Fisher fell. On January 22, 1865, seven one-hundred pound Parrot shells were shot at the fort and made contact with a warehouse. The US Navy shot at the fort on the February 10th. After a couple of days, nothing happened. Then on February 17th, the shooting recommenced and the fort attempted to fight back with only mediocre supplies. The fighting continued for three days. The people of Fort Anderson were forced to evacuate quickly due to the enemy's overwhelming numbers. Next, the US Army approached the empty fort. The US Navy began an attack on the army, thinking that it was the Confederate army. Of course, however, the US Army surrendered quickly by raising a white flag. It is the only time in history where the US Army surrendered to the US Navy.\nFort Anderson Civil War History\nAfter a strong Union attack it was evacuated Feb. 18, 1865, resulting in the fall of Wilmington.\nNorth Carolina Coastal Defenses\nFort Anderson and Cape Fear River Defense System\nIn 1861\u20131862, Col. William Lamb and Maj. John Hedrick constructed Fort Anderson, one of several Confederate strongholds that protected Wilmington, a major blockade-running port. (See The Blockade of Wilmington, North Carolina.) They enlarged Fort St. Philip, an earthen wall with gun emplacements that extended from the ruin to the Cape Fear River and renamed it Fort Anderson. Although Lamb had no engineering experience, he applied to the building of fortifications what engineers had learned during the Crimean War (1854\u20131856). In July 1862, he assumed command of Fort Fisher downstream and transformed it into the world\u2019s largest earthwork. There, as at Fort Anderson, slaves and Indians moved the dirt and sand \u201cone shovelful at a time.\u201d Adjacent the river were the massive artillery emplacements that mounted nine seacoast cannons; these cannons were supported by movable field artillery pieces. Large underground chambers sheltered the garrison and the volatile black powder supply during bombardments.\nKey for Map of North Carolina Coastal Defenses:\n(A) Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station\n(B) Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base &\nNew River Marine Corps Air Station\n(C) US Army Sunny Point Ocean Terminals\nOriginal Union Plan of Attack on Fort Anderson, dated Feb. 18, 1865.\nOn January 15, 1865, Fort Fisher, the last major fort on the east coast to remain open during the Union blockade, was taken by a combined Union Army-Navy assault. The forts at the mouth of the Cape Fear River were then evacuated and destroyed by the Confederates on the night of January 15/16. For one month the Confederates, commanded by Generals Braxton Bragg and Robert Hoke, managed to contain the Union forces at their beachhead near Fort Fisher and in lower Brunswick County at Smithville (modern Southport).

During the thirteen hour bombardment, three hundred and eighty shells an hour were directed at the fort. (Right) Period map of Fort Fisher and surrounding defenses.\nGuns at Fort Anderson\nUnion General Jacob D. Cox was directed by Major General John M. Schofield, overall Union commander, to move up the west bank of the Cape Fear River and advance on Wilmington from the west. The primary obstacle before the town was Fort Anderson. Designed much like Fort Fisher, it boasted over a mile of earthen fortifications and artillery chambers in addition to batteries that guarded the water approach to the city. The fort also made use of the natural terrain, using swampland and ponds as moats and protective defenses along its battlements.\nCox arrived in front of Fort Anderson on February 16, 1865. For two days the opposing forces engaged in heavy skirmishing. On the afternoon of February 18, a large Union force was marched around the head of Orton Pond to flank the Confederate stronghold. After a combined sea bombardment and land attack, the post was evacuated in the early morning hours of February 19, 1865. The Confederates then fell back to a prepared position at Town Creek. That position failed to hold and Wilmington fell on February 22 after the extensive naval stores contained in her warehouses were destroyed by retreating Confederates.\nPresent-day Fort Anderson\nPresent-day Fort Anderson.

Description: A detailed but highly readable study of the largest and strongest interior fortification guarding the Confederacy's last major seaport of Wilmington, North Carolina. An imposing earthen bastion, Fort Anderson was the scene of a massive two-day Union naval bombardment and ground assault in late February 1865. Continued below\u2026\nThe fort's fall sealed Wilmington's doom. More than a military campaign study, Fort Anderson: Battle for Wilmington examines the history of the fort's location from its halcyon days as North Carolina's leading colonial port of Brunswick to its beginnings as a Confederate fortification in 1862 and its fall to Union forces three years later. The fort also had several eerie connections to President Abraham Lincoln's assassination. Today the fort is part of the tranquil Brunswick Town State Historic Site.

        "raw_content": "Frederick Forsyth says U.S. Government sponsored \u201cKill Lists\u201d are real. He\u2019s right.\nForsyth\u2019s new thriller THE KILL LIST features an agency described this way in the book\u2019s promotional materials: \u201cIn Virginia, there is an agency bearing the bland name of Technical Operations Support Activity, or TOSA. Its one mission is to track, find, and kill those so dangerous to the United States that they are on a short document known as the Kill List. TOSA actually exists. So does the Kill List.\u201d\nThe novel is obviously fiction. But the story it tells is very close to the truth. I know this from personal experience.\nLoose-Lipped Assassins\nI once worked for another organization in Virginia with the innocuous name Management Logistics International, or MLI. After receiving our Top Secret security clearances, we traveled to foreign countries with Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) teams to conduct \u201ccrisis management training exercises.\u201d But the JSOC guys would always disappear for a few days \u2026.\nWe never knew officially what our JSOC team mates did between the time when they infiltrated and exfiltrated with us under diplomatic cover. But over the course of time, during hours of late night boozing in sleazy bars and clubs from Kingston to Quito, those tough Green Berets and Navy SEALs dropped some pretty broad hints. And it\u2019s clear to me that their mission was pretty much the same as the TOSA described in Forsyth\u2019s novel, which in reality does classified airborne intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions for JSOC. However, the kind of operations detailed in THE KILL LIST are actually performed by one of the most secret units in the war against terrorism, so highly classified that it is known simply as \u201cThe Activity.\u201d\nThe line between fact and fiction is often indistinguishable.

        "raw_content": "Home > Student Life > Academics\n'The Objective of Education Is Learning, Not Teaching'\nIn the educational process, students should be offered a wide variety of ways to learn, among which they could choose or with which they could experiment. They do not have to learn different things the same way. They should learn at a very early stage of \"schooling\" that learning how to learn is largely their responsibility -- with the help they seek but that is not imposed on them.\nTraditional education focuses on teaching, not learning. It incorrectly assumes that for every ounce of teaching there is an ounce of learning by those who are taught. This is the trap of a Teaching Environment. It is a focus on content and its delivery to learners. The model is based on the concept of modernism, a belief that knowledge resides in a specific location and is shared or transferred from the one who \"knows\" to the one who does not.\nIn order to encourage learners to leave this imitation-as-goal perspective, the Learning Environment was given form, partly because of learning research relating to the computational mind theory, partly as a response to postmodernist theories. The focus of a learning environment is on the development of concepts, patterns, and relationships. It is based on the theory that knowledge is not shared, but rather constructed within each individual through either inductive or deductive reasoning. In a Learning Environment, the presentation of content is not as important as the discovery of the underlying patterns and concepts that constructed the content. An IB classroom is a student centered learning environment. Activities are designed to stimulate intellectual curiosity and to equip students with the skills to become independent learners. Structured inquiry, critical thinking, activities in which students may learn through experience are used in the classroom. The teacher is a facillitator of the learning process.\nWe offer learning in both Indian classical and western dances as an integral part of the curriculum",

        "raw_content": "On Beginnings, Endings, Dead Beatles and God\nFriday is my last day at work.\nIt\u2019s also, for all intents and purposes, the last day of my life here in Indiana. I\u2019ve been existing in a strange state of incompleteness, surveying everything and everyone around me and reminding myself that this isn\u2019t my life anymore. As one door opens, another closes, unless you strain mightily against it, and after so many temporary lives, I don\u2019t think I have the strength to strain as mightily as once I, perhaps, might have.\nIt\u2019s only in goodbyes that people truly reveal what you\u2019ve meant to them, and I\u2019ve discovered over the past few days that I\u2019ve meant at least something to quite a decent number of people here. I have, I think, accomplished what has always been the goal wherever I am, by doing more good than harm here. In a few rare instances, I\u2019ve actually helped some people, I think, and when I reflect upon it, I\u2019ve been helped more than once as well.\nSo I\u2019m thinking about all this, this metaphorical death and rebirth, when I remember that this week is the 23rd anniversary of John Lennon\u2019s death, and I realize that, speaking of dead Beatles, I haven\u2019t talked about George Harrison yet. And it seems oddly, mystically fitting to review Harrison\u2019s final, posthumous album as I\u2019m taking stock of my own (admittedly small) legacy.\nA posthumous album like Harrison\u2019s Brainwashed, after all, is little more than a letter composed while you\u2019re here, to be read after you\u2019re gone. I\u2019ve been doing a lot of that lately \u2013 writing letters I will only send after I\u2019m gone, expressing important emotions to the friends I\u2019ve made, and to the unattainable girl I\u2019m hopelessly smitten with (as usual) \u2013 and while my truths are considerably less universal and impactful than Harrison\u2019s final ones, the whole process leads me to wonder why we don\u2019t just say what we feel when we feel it.\nIn a group in which each member was assigned a role and a personality by the mass culture, George Harrison got labeled as the Deep One. He was quiet and spiritual, decent and superbly talented, and if he shrunk from the spotlight as he got older, we didn\u2019t mind, because he\u2019d never craved it in the first place. Every Harrison song, every Harrison project, was a worthy investment of time and attention, and that\u2019s partly why there were so few of them. More than a decade and a half has elapsed between Harrison\u2019s last album, Cloud Nine, and this final one.\nAnd again, we don\u2019t mind, because George always had something to say, and each of his recordings feels as important to him as the best ones do to his more prolific bandmates. Harrison just never wasted our time. Brainwashed is another well-spent 45 minutes, and if Harrison was typed as the deep, spiritual one, then it only makes sense that his final album is his deepest, most spiritual statement of all. Brainwashed is almost entirely about ignoring the trappings of the world and giving yourself over to a higher spiritual presence.\nCall that presence what you will. Harrison calls it God, repeatedly on the title track, which closes the album. Brainwashed is a record of goodbyes, but none of them are maudlin and depressing. In keeping with his spirit, Harrison has left behind one of his most uplifting and whimsical albums, one that nearly dances with glee at each new way it finds to celebrate spiritual awakening. Harrison was never about religion, as evidenced in his final swipe at the Catholic Church, \u201cP2 Vatican Blues.\u201d Rather, he was about reaching beyond yourself to find the greater beauty that awaits. He spent his whole life reaching for it, reveling in the journey and secure in the destination.\nMusically, Brainwashed is about what you\u2019d expect, and that\u2019s a good thing. Harrison\u2019s weary-yet-triumphant vocals sometimes clash against Jeff Lynne\u2019s production, carried out after George passed, but contrary to some reports, Lynne actually is remarkably restrained here. The man for whom the word \u201cposh\u201d would had to have been invented, had it not previously existed, lets a surprising amount of roughness seep through here, and it\u2019s appreciated.\nIt\u2019s impossible, however, to objectively review this record as a slab of music, apart from the life and grace of its creator. You can\u2019t listen to Brainwashed without thinking to yourself, multiple times, that this is the last George Harrison album, and you won\u2019t be able to separate the emotions that flood in at that thought from the music itself. There are instant classics here, like \u201cRun So Far\u201d and the plaintive, haunting \u201cLooking For My Life,\u201d and the rest is as good as Harrison has ever been. Which is quite good.\nFor me, though, there is no more hopeful element to this work than the contributions of Harrison\u2019s son Dhani, who completed several of the guitar and keyboard tracks after his father\u2019s death. One can only imagine the difficulty of playing on one\u2019s father\u2019s posthumous record, and the reverence with which anyone else would approach this material, because it\u2019s George, can only be amplified in Dhani\u2019s case, because it\u2019s his dad. The record closes with Dhani and George reciting the Krishna chant \u201cNamah Pavarti,\u201d together, father and son, and both sons to the Father. Whether you believe in Harrison\u2019s more spiritual leanings or not, it\u2019s an aching jewel of a closer because he believed in them, utterly and completely. It\u2019s how I imagine him wanting to be remembered \u2013 a simple, peaceful man, praying with his son.\nWithout doubt, all of this real death puts my own metaphorical death into perspective, but I think Harrison would be pleased that I\u2019ve taken some comfort in his final offering. \u201cIf you don\u2019t know where you\u2019re going,\u201d he sings in the zen-like opener, \u201cany road will take you there.\u201d For the first time in a while, I don\u2019t know where I\u2019m going, but instead of choosing a road, I think I\u2019m ready to let the road choose me. I will certainly miss this life, and I have no idea what\u2019s awaiting me in my next one, but I think it\u2019ll all be okay.\nI\u2019ve read about this somewhere. I think it\u2019s called faith.",

        "raw_content": "I watched this on, you've guessed it, Sky Movies. I was looking forward to it on the basis it has won awards and has been given a lot of praise. It has also seemed to have been a big blockbuster film, but...\nNever see a film that wins awards. They are always rubbish films. This one was too bizarre. Don't get me wrong, I like a bit of wierdness in films, I mean Harry Potter isn't exactly portraying a normal everyday life situation is it? But, this went too far. I do see why it appeals to some people but I'd advise you to watch other films rather than this one.\nIt's too strange, so strange it confuses you and the order it's in makes it harder to grasp and harder to be interested in. I'm not really a big Leonardo DiCaprio man either, I'd rather watch a Tom Cruise film or a Will Smith film for example, DiCaprio doesn't really have enough personality or charm for me as a main character, not in this film anyway.\nHowever, if you are interested in the workings of the human mind and like over- the- top strange films then I'd advise you to watch it. It has lots of special effects too, which probably improve it as it looks real and pretty cool to be honest. Plus there is a decent amount of action in there too, but if you're like me and you like action films like Die Hard, James Bond and others like Firewall and Red Eye I'd warn you off it, as it isn't action like that- more fantasy action like Journey To The Centre Of The Earth, but more adult and serious.\nIn conclusion, I'd give what I saw of it before giving up a 5/10. Poor. Particularly given the expectations going into this film.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zfMZaLoAsY- Inception Trailer.",

        "title": "Vegetable Garden Topsoil | Topsoil Nottingham",
        "raw_content": "The Best Topsoil For Growth\nTopsoil for vegetable gardens or any other uses like lawns, from a local Nottinghamshire area supplier, will undoubtedly make the whole process better, as you can expect delivery on time and it\u2019s easy to get in touch if there are any problems. The company will know the road system better and you\u2019ll find it easy to visit their site if needed.\nConstituents of Quality Topsoil\nVegetable gardening requires more than just preparing your garden and transplanting seedlings into it. You not only need to till the garden properly but also ensure the topsoil is fertile enough to support healthy growth of the vegetables to harvest time. This sometimes means buying the topsoil from a local quality topsoil supplier near you. You, however, need or have to choose the best topsoil for vegetable gardens to have a bounty harvest at the end of the season.\nKnowing what makes good topsoil is the key to finding the best quality there is in the market. It\u2019s also worth noting that, vegetables require and absorb significant amounts of nutrients and water as compared to other plants. Plants that do not get enough nutrients and water have a characteristically stunted growth and the produce can be disheartening. It is by investing in the best quality topsoil that you can be assured of healthy growth and a bountiful harvest. Some of the qualities and factors to consider when shopping for the best topsoil for vegetable gardens include:\n1. Organic Material Content in Soil\nPlants require healthy amounts of organic matter to grow properly. The organic material provides an ample environment for roots to grow and spread properly, as well as provide the plants with most of the essential nutrients. The best quality topsoil you can find will have approximately 60% of organic matter, with the remaining 40% being a mixture of clay, sand, and other materials. Many suppliers get the organic material from well-rotten manure or compost. Topsoil made of compost, manure, or a mixture of the two contains many of the essential nutrients needed for healthy plant growth and development.\n2. Potassium, Phosphorus, and Nitrogen Content in soil\nThese are essentially the 3 basic nutrients needed for healthy plant growth. Most suppliers test their soils to determine the mineral content of the soil, then use an organic fertilizer to balance it out. This is because some sources may be high in phosphorus but contain trace amounts of nitrogen or potassium. Adding organic fertilizer rich in these, therefore, helps balance out the equation to the ratios of 10:10:10. If you plan to use an all-organic approach, you then have to order topsoil with only organic fertilizer used.\n3. Soil pH\nThe pH levels of the topsoil is another crucial element to have in mind before making the order. Under normal conditions, your vegetable garden should have a pH of between 6 and 7. Anything lower or higher than that could harm your plants, or even cause yellowing. The best topsoil for vegetable gardens should have pH levels of approximately 6.5. It\u2019s when the soil is alkaline that roots and leaves will grow healthily, and even support fruit development well. Many topsoil suppliers will ensure their soil has the recommended pH for various plants and garden environments.\n4. Aeration and presence of micro-organisms in soil\nAside from being nutrient dense, a good top soil should have equal proportions of clay, silt, and sand, as well as have some of the beneficial microbes and worms in it, excellent for lawns. Earthworms, for example, have a crucial role of keeping the soil aerated as it navigates through the soil. Other microbes such as bacteria and fungi facilitate decomposition and other healthy chain reactions required to make the soil healthy. Proper aeration is required for it helps improve oxygen levels in the soil \ufffd\u201d this promotes root growth and reduces the risk of the roots rotting.\nPurchasing Quality Screened Topsoil in Nottingham\nAlthough you could prepare some topsoil yourself (could take months), buying the same from a trusted and verified supplier is the best option. Some of the best suppliers out there have been doing this for years, hence understand what is required much better. You, however, should stay away from free bulk or cheap topsoil, as this could be full of rocks, roots, and other debris that make it unsuitable for vegetable growing.\nTo get the best topsoil for a vegetable garden, consider looking at more than just 2 suppliers. Look online for topsoil supplier Nottingham area and take a look at their website. Sites with multiple services may not be ideal as a bespoke supplier may have a better service. Have a checklist to ensure you pick only the best soil you can get. Good topsoil has a characteristic dark, lose, clean look, and is lightweight as well. Most suppliers will have the soil in a well-aerated container and never in a plastic bag. The soil should also have compost already mixed in, and ready for planting as is.",

        "raw_content": "Updating Your House? Look No Further Than Your Exterior Doors And Windows\nFrom completely renovating your kitchen to creating a master bathroom your neighbors will envy, when you hear the word \"upgrade,\" you might assume making your house more functional and beautiful is never affordable. If you want to make your home more functional, updated and dynamic, consider upgrading the exterior doors and windows throughout. Here are a just a few of the many reasons that you should spend your remodeling budget on replacing your old doors and windows. Additionally, if you aren't sure where to begin, here are a few tips to help ensure you spend your money wisely:\nAccording to Angie's List, upgrading your windows will provide you a 70 percent return-on-investment, or ROI, making it a great investment. If you're considering selling your home in the future, a house that features upgraded exterior doors and windows throughout can be very attractive to potential buyers.\nWhile shopping for new windows and doors, choose models that are both attractive and energy efficient. For example, the United States Department of Energy recommends looking for patio doors that features a metal frame and that swings open, rather than slides. This type of door doesn't allow as much heat or cold air to escape from your home.\nWhen it comes to new windows, HGTV recommends choosing wood-clad models. Wood-clad windows feature a wooden core that is wrapped with either vinyl or aluminum.\nIncreased Security and Peace of Mind\nAccording to the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, there were over 2,100,000 burglaries throughout America in 2010. Installing a state-of-the-art security system is a great way to keep your family safe. However, if you want to provided an extra level of safety that can also improve your home's appearance, replacing your existing exterior doors and windows is the best strategy.\nHere are a few tips to help you choose the safest and most stylish exterior doors and windows for your home:\nChoose a solid wood front and back door. Not only is this a classic option, a solid wood door is much more difficult for an intruder to kick down.\nOpt for new sliding glass doors that are constructed with polycarbonate or reinforced glass, rather than a more inexpensive model that features thinner glass. In addition, installing new curtains provides an extra layer of stylish privacy.\nPurchase a front and back door that doesn't feature any windows. If you like the look of a door that features a window, once again, choose one that is fitted with reinforced glass.\nThere are several varieties of doors and windows on the market, and if you're not sure where to begin, here are a few tips to help ensure you spend your budget wisely:\nIf your remodel is more extensive, look to your front door for inspiration.

        "raw_content": "North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) -- a preferential trade agreement among Canada, Mexico and the United States covering trade in goods, technical barriers to trade, government procurement, investment, services and related matters, intellectual property, administrative, institutional and other provisions. The objectives of NAFTA are to eliminate barriers to trade, facilitate the cross-border movement of goods and services, promote conditions of fair competition, increase investment opportunities, provide adequate and effective protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights, create effective procedures for the implementation and application of this agreement, and to establish a framework for further trilateral, regional and multilateral cooperation to expand and enhance the benefits of this agreement within the territories of the signatory countries.\nA NAFTA Certificate of Origin must be filled out to obtain preferential tariff treatment for export to or import from Canada and Mexico. The document must be completed legibly and in full by the exporter and be in the possession of the importer at the time the declaration is made. This document may also be completed voluntarily by the producer for use by the exporter.A NAFTA Certificate of Origin should only be completed for products exported to Canada or Mexico that meet the NAFTA rules of origin of production in the NAFTA countries. Inclusion of products that do not qualify is illegal and subject to fines and penalties. An importer must submit to customs a NAFTA Certificate of Origin completed by the exporter in order to be eligible for preferential tariff rates. By filling out a NAFTA Certificate of Origin, a shipper is certifying that the covered goods meet the rules of origin, and therefore, qualify for preferential rates. If the product does not qualify for NAFTA tariff preferences, the Certificate must not be completed, as the product is then usually subject to the Most Favored Nation (MFN) tariff rate, rather than the NAFTA rate.\nNorth American Trade Automation Prototype. Although the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has been amply criticized, the treaty has had its triumphs. One of these is the ongoing cooperation among the party nations' customs administrations. Trilateral cooperation under NAFTA has led to the development of a demonstration project called the North American Trade Automation Prototype (NATAP). NATAP is designed to show how the flow of goods between NAFTA nations could be standardized and processed in an electronic environment, enabling the seamless movement of cargo across NAFTA borders.\nNational treatment: Treating foreigners and locals equally.Imported and locally-produced goods should be treated equally \u2014 at least after the foreign goods have entered the market. The same should apply to foreign and domestic services, and to foreign and local trademarks, copyrights and patents. This principle of \u201cnational treatment\u201d (giving others the same treatment as one\u2019s own nationals) is also found in all the three main WTO agreements (Article 3 of GATT, Article 17 of GATS and Article 3 of TRIPS), although once again the principle is handled slightly differently in each of these. National treatment only applies once a product, service or item of intellectual property has entered the market. Therefore, charging customs duty on an import is not a violation of national treatment even if locally-produced products are not charged an equivalent tax.\nNationalization, also spelled nationalisation, is the act of taking an industry or assets into the public ownership of a national government or state. Nationalization usually refers to private assets, but may also mean assets owned by lower levels of government, such as municipalities, being state operated or owned by the state. The opposite of nationalization is usually privatization or de-nationalisation, but may also be municipalization. A renationalization occurs when state-owned assets are privatized and later nationalized again, often when a different political party or faction is in power. A renationalization process may also be called reverse privatization.\nA bill of lading (B/L) that can be transferred by its consignee to a third party by signing (endorsing) and delivering it to another party (the new consignee). The new consignee can then transfer it to another party ... and so on. To be negotiable a B/L must be written (drawn) 'To Order' of the consignee and must be clean. Any B/L that does not fulfill these two conditions is termed non-negotiable.\nNational Importer Liquidation (NIL). Under the National Importer Liquidation (NIL) program, an importer can request that all courtesy notices be sent to a specific ABI participant who is an entry filer. Importers requesting this service must submit a Hold Harmless Agreement to Customs.\nNorth American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation\nNorth American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation Between the Government of Canada, the Government of the United Mexican States and the Government of the United States of America\nNOS - Not Otherwise Specified: Items that cannot be specified under any of the available classifications or headings in a schedule or tariff. Also called not elsewhere specified (NES).\nThe U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) was created as an independent agency by Congress in 1974 to enable the nation to safely use radioactive materials for beneficial civilian purposes while ensuring that people and the environment are protected. The NRC regulates commercial nuclear power plants and other uses of nuclear materials, such as in nuclear medicine, through licensing, inspection and enforcement of its requirements\nNon vessel owning common carrier (NVOCC) is that which consolidates and disperses international containers that are mainly bound for inland ports. An ocean carrier which does not own or operate their own vessels is known as non vessel owning common carrier. They use less than full container loads which they ship on actual ship lines. Non vessel owning common carriers issue their own bills of lading and are backed up actual on board ocean bills that are issued to them by the other carriers. In the US, cargo transportation is characterized as the heart of all activity where cargo terminals concentrate on a group of actions that includes transfer of bulk goods from one ship to another or prepare received shipments for local delivery etc. Similarly, non vessel owning common carriers also have their functions to complete that are extremely vital for smooth sailing of all operations.",

The record was a MAJOR success, earning the 19-year-old the coveted Best New Artist trophy at this year's VMAs, and he's currently in the running for FIVE Grammy Awards, including Best R&B Song for his breakout single \"Location.\" Today, the singer dropped a music video for \"Saved\" and it beautifully captures the turmoil of having your ex purposely ignore all of your phone calls.\nInstead of taking in the tropical scenery around him, Khalid roams the streets in distress while having flashbacks of all the good times from his relationship. It's almost a little too relatable if you've ever been in a situation where you're still not completely over your ex. Model on the rise Duckie Thot plays the role of the heartbreaker; the matchup might seem random at first glance, but they're actually friends IRL (aka, the friendship we didn't know we needed until they started talking on Twitter).\nWatch it go down in the video below.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oapebl0bADA",

        "raw_content": "Currently, advertising is an essential element to increase the number of customers and increase sales. Increasingly, it is necessary to have professionals in marketing and visual communication to stand out from the competition.\nThis communication and marketing company covers all the necessary fields to give the best and biggest advertising coverage. Their impeccable work places them at the top of their sector, proof of this is that brands such as Coca Cola, Disney, Loewe, Nespresso, Michelin, or even the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport have them to carry out their campaigns.\nWithout a doubt, a good advertising campaign ensures the leadership of a brand and the success of the company. But not any advertising company can achieve these goals, it takes a lot of knowledge, strategies, tools and be in constant innovation to not be left behind. Moreover, when a communication company stays in the market for so many years, it is because it knows how to do things well, otherwise, it would have already failed.\nHow to increase your sales with marketing and visual communication\nThere are many marketing strategies used today, but not all are valid or effective for example, the method of advertising used by dentists in Tijuana, the good treatment they give their patients and they recommend it with friends. . Only those that are able to capture the attention of the public, retain it and make it a customer, are those that are really worthwhile. No matter how good a product or service is, if we do not give it the necessary publicity, it can be relegated to oblivion. From this, they know very well the consolidated brands, which have always invested in advertising to maintain their leadership in the market.\nBut you do not have to have a large company or a business emporium to access the best advertising campaigns. What you really need is to have the best professionals, these are at your service. Your advertising marketing techniques guarantee you safe results with the best guarantees. Not in vain, they have the best options and the latest trends, at the service of their customers.\nWe know that, as human beings, sight, occupies a privileged place when choosing products and services. Knowing how to communicate through images and transmit emotions is the best way to capture the consumer\u2019s attention. A product or service well presented has many more possibilities to be acquired, than one that remains in the shade, or does not stand out above the rest.\nEveryone knows the great success of Coca Cola worldwide, this success is mainly due to their advertising campaigns. Since its inception, this brand has managed to touch the emotions of the public with advertisements that appeal to the deepest yearning of the human being: happiness. So much so, that today there is no valid competitor that can remove them from their position as leaders in their sector.\nBut the case of Coca Cola, is just one example, of so many other brands that have known how to take advantage of advertising to take over the market. These advantages are multiple, but the main ones are: increase of clients, conversion of followers into buyers and loyalty of the same. Once these three steps have been achieved, we must stay on top, innovating and risking, using all the technology and creativity necessary to continue creating expectation.\nThere are many ways to advertise, and many formats, and all should be covered to get everywhere. From spots and television campaigns, to signage, going through packaging, framed, supports, and a long etcetera. Everything has to convey the corporate image and the motto of the company, in every detail. The objective is that the end customer can immediately identify the brand, once they have become familiar with it. This is what ensures survival alongside other similar brands, and is what facilitates and reinforces the purchase.\nWithout a team of qualified people who know how to focus the campaigns, and what are the necessary actions for your product or company, these goals will be difficult to achieve. So, if you want to benefit from what advertising can do for your company trust only the best, you can not leave your success in the hands of fans.\nPrevious Previous post: Communication And Marketing Will Create More Jobs",

        "raw_content": "As Nashville invades New York, a home-grown hayseed scene thrives beneath the CMA\u2019s radar\nFrom The Village Voice \u2013 New York City\nWhen the country music industry touches down in New York this week for the 39th Annual Country Music Association Awards, Nashville execs might well be smirking as they arrive in a town never known as a haven for the genre. They\u2019ll find carefully orchestrated events designed to make New York Dixie-friendly, but what they\u2019re not likely to see is the vibrant, if small, local scenes\u2014the Brooklyn country bars, the downtown bluegrass circles\u2014that thrive year-round, regardless of what\u2019s happening at Madison Square Garden.\nIn September, City Hall declared November 9 through 15 \u201cCountry Takes NYC Week,\u201d with an estimated $30 million expected to be generated in tourist revenue during the CMA\u2019s first awards ceremony in the city. Bringing the show to Manhattan \u201coffers residents and guests alike the opportunity to experience our warmth, hospitality, and family-friendly environment,\u201d Daniel L. Doctoroff, deputy mayor for economic development and rebuilding, trumpeted in a press release. Early arrivals might witness Wednesday\u2019s \u201cCulinary Day,\u201d with \u201ccountry themed\u201d menus at participating restaurants and a special episode of the Food Network\u2019s Emeril Live featuring the Charlie Daniels Band; children learning to write country songs in public schools on Thursday; Daniels, Trace Adkins, and others participating in Veterans Day memorials; a \u201cBroadway Meets Country\u201d concert at Lincoln Center with Lee Ann Womack and Trisha Yearwood sharing the stage with Bernadette Peters; and of course, a \u201cFashion and Shopping Day\u201d of in-store promotions on Monday. In other words, big business in the big city. Country superstars (and awards-show hosts) Brooks & Dunn were even tapped to ring the NYSE opening bell on November 15, the day trophies are handed out.\nBut anyone who looks between the cracks of this temporary official hoopla will find small but thriving pockets of homegrown country. The last two weeks in July saw the Second Annual Brooklyn Country Music Festival, a homegrown affair at Park Slope and Prospect Heights saloons. September 16 and 17 marked the Eighth Annual Park Slope Bluegrass Jamboree. On top of that, Yankee hayseeds can check Sean Kershaw and the New Jack Ramblers every Sunday at Hank\u2019s Saloon (along with Freddy\u2019s Backroom, the country HQ in the Borough of Churches), open bluegrass jams every Monday at the Parkside Lounge and Wednesday at the Baggot Inn, the \u201cCasHank\u201d Johnny Cash/Hank Williams open mic at Buttermilk in Park Slope, as well as frequent gigs at Lillie\u2019s in Red Hook, Lakeside Lounge and Old Devil Moon in the East Village, and Rodeo Bar in Murray Hill. (In other words, don\u2019t look in Williamsburg.)\nIn the weeks between the Brooklyn festival and the Park Slope jamboree, the city was teeming with A-list country and bluegrass: Dolly Parton playing Radio City Music Hall and Tony Trischka appearing at Satalla; free concerts by Doc Watson, Ricky Skaggs, and Suzy Bogguss at Lincoln Center Out of Doors, and by Big & Rich, Gretchen Wilson, Cowboy Troy, and Erika Jo at Union Square. None of which is to deny the city\u2019s reputation as being too cool for country; it\u2019s just to ask, \u201cSez who?\u201d\n\u201cI think not having a commercial station has been a big barrier for country music here,\u201d says Laura Cantrell, a country singer herself and for 12 years the host of WFMU\u2019s Saturday afternoon country show Radio Thrift Shop. \u201cThat does limit the audience that gets exposed to new country music. [The audience] is made up of people who come from other parts of the country. If you go to see Del McCoury, there\u2019s going to be a big audience. If you go see Robert Earl Keen at the Bowery Ballroom, it\u2019s going to be packed with people that are rabid for Texas music. New York is really good at supporting these underground stars.\u201d\nBesides Cantrell\u2019s radio show (which sadly is on hiatus until June due to her touring schedule), traditional country music can be heard on Sunday afternoons and Tuesday nights on WKCR and the occasional segment on WFUV, college radio stations at Columbia and Fordham universities respectively. In other words, no all-country formats and no advertisers, nothing to attract industry at a time when country record sales are on the rise (a 12 percent increase from 2003 to 2004, according to CMA statistics). Nationwide, country stations constitute about 20 percent of the market. In New York, it\u2019s about 11 hours a week.\nThat hasn\u2019t always been the case. In the 1970s, WHN\u2019s country format put it in the top five stations in the city. During the 1990s, WNYW and Y-107 boasted strong listenerships, but neither survived the decade with that format. The issue, apparently, isn\u2019t that there aren\u2019t country listeners; nor is it that they have nothing to listen to. What\u2019s missing is money.\nThe Brooklyn Country Music Festival hosted 40 bands over eight days, none getting paid more than what organizer and songwriter Alex Battles collected in a basket after each set. And the Park Slope Bluegrass festival charged a mere $4 to see six bands, supplemented by modest local sponsorships. When you\u2019re playing country and bluegrass in New York City, however, it\u2019s hard to expect much more. \u201cWe play for free beer and girls who smile at us,\u201d says Battles, a tireless organizer who performs under the name Whisky Rebellion. In addition to the country festival\u2014where he said he broke even, selling T-shirts to offset the cost of the free hot dogs\u2014he is the force behind the monthly CasHank open mic and pulled together a country/burlesque \u201cJugfest\u201d benefit for victims of Hurricane Katrina at Southpaw on September 8.\nFor Battles\u2014an Ohio transplant who\u2019s been in New York for 10 years\u2014\u201dBrooklyn Country\u201d is a sort of subgenre, a music for Midwestern transplants, steeped in the \u201970s but with a punk ethos, grimier than the musicianship of the Village bluegrass circles.\n\u201cThe sound of country music that\u2019s played in Brooklyn doesn\u2019t go past 1975, which is when the Eagles\u2019 influence changed the sound,\u201d he said. \u201cWe all ride the train every day and we all like train music, which is Johnny Cash. Folk music is supposed to be the songs that everyone knows. They\u2019re easy to play on guitar and everyone knows the words. That means Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, and the Beatles, and I can\u2019t play Beatles songs because they\u2019ve all got ninths in them.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not like we\u2019re not adding anything new to it,\u201d he says. \u201cWe\u2019re just not taking from anything that came after it,\u201d he says.\nLeon Chase, a friend of Battles\u2019s who performs under the name Uncle Leon, said he has to remain realistic about playing his brand of Johnny Cash\u2013inspired cowpunk in a city populated with actors, artists, and authors.\n\u201cThere\u2019s this New York disease people catch where everyone is like, \u2018Am I going to get big off this?\u2019 \u201d he says. \u201cWe\u2019re playing country in New York, and we can\u2019t pull a lot of attitude.\u201d\nA few years after moving to New York from Michigan by way of San Francisco, Chase noticed a nascent country scene growing up around him in Brooklyn. In response, he launched the Brooklyn Country website (www.brooklyncountry.com) last year to help build a sense of community among the musicians he was playing with.\n\u201cMost people who are in bands aren\u2019t rich guys; they don\u2019t live in Manhattan,\u201d Chase says. \u201cMost people who are doing creative things aren\u2019t in Manhattan because they can\u2019t afford it unless they\u2019ve been in New York a long time. In Brooklyn you just get a more laid-back kind of person.\u201d\nWhatever the reason, a tour of the regular nights in Brooklyn and Manhattan reveals one thing: The west side of the East River tends to be about bluegrass virtuosity, whereas the outer borough caters to drinkin\u2019 songs with a modicum of chords. Battles puts his aversion to the Parkside and Baggot nights simply: \u201cI\u2019m a shitty musician,\u201d he says. \u201cI can\u2019t really play the fucking guitar. I\u2019m good at singing and I\u2019m good at making up funny stories that rhyme.\u201d\nThe borough division might be an oversimplification. The Park Slope Bluegrass Jamboree, after all, was about a dozen blocks from the Brooklyn Country Music Festival. And Rodeo Bar is known for its generous tequila pours. But still\u2014there are the serious players and the good old boys, shows where feet politely tap and gigs where mugs are tipped. Call it the string ties versus the straw hats, the 1955ers and the 1975ers: two spheres of vintage Southern sounds, and never the twain do meet.\n\u201cThey\u2019re just smarter than me,\u201d Battles, a straw hat, explained. \u201cYou put outfits on, you increase your audience 40 percent.\u201d\nOn the other side of the equation is guitarist James Reams, who leads the Barnstormers\u2014one of the hottest bluegrass outfits in town\u2014and who with his wife, Tina Aridas, organized the Park Slope jamboree. The Barnstormers just released their second CD, on Mountain Redbird Music, and headlined a standing-room-only night at the Brooklyn Society for Ethical Culture meeting house, replete in red-and-white striped shirts and string ties.\n\u201cI do get labeled because of those shirts.\u201d he says. \u201cThere\u2019s a part of this called marketing. In this particular market, people are going to be drawn into it, be able to categorize it quicker. In a Northeastern market, I\u2019m best served by at least appearing to be traditional. It\u2019s the one thing that, if I had my druthers, I\u2019d like to change.\u201d\nDespite the \u201cold-time\u201d trappings, Reams insists he\u2019s a contemporary musician. (\u201cIf you\u2019re going to be a real musician, you can\u2019t be a nostalgia musician,\u201d he says. \u201cI don\u2019t enjoy bands like Sha Na Na.\u201d) And while his band might look something like a barbershop quartet, his lyrics are informed by the 21st century. The song \u201cHills of My Country\u201d takes on a rural but distinctly modern issue: mountaintop removal mining, or blasting mountains to extract more coal more quickly.\nThe Barnstormers play between 30 and 40 dates a year, but only a couple of those in the city the Kentucky native has called home for 22 years. As a semi-professional musician (during the day he teaches literacy at P.S. 110 on the Lower East Side), Reams is less than rosy about the support the city shows for bluegrass.\nNew York City \u201cis horrible,\u201d he says. \u201cThe only place is the Parkside Lounge, and that\u2019s only on Monday nights. No one would ever say that\u2019s healthy. What\u2019s healthy is a Friday or a Saturday night. New York is a jazz and blues town.\u201d\nThe city might never have been seen as country because it\u2019s such an urban center in a region of metropolitan life, according to Peter Blackstock, co-editor of No Depression magazine, which marked its 10th anniversary in September of chronicling the edges of country music. While Chicago\u2014a big city surrounded by farm towns\u2014has always fostered country- leaning musicians, \u201cpeople tend to migrate to New York for the specifically urban experience,\u201d he says.\nThe CMA awards \u201ccan happen in New York or L.A. just as easily as in Nashville,\u201d he says. New country acts are \u201cselling as big as the pop acts. It\u2019s not too surprising. I think it\u2019s a mistake, though. They lose a little bit by not tying themselves into the history of things like the Grand Ole Opry. It becomes a little bit too much like the Grammys or any other awards show.\u201d\n\u201cNew York City has always tried to fashion itself as the music and culture capital of the world, except [for] country music,\u201d says singer-songwriter Orville Davis, who\u2019s hosted open mics in Inwood for seven years but refuses to take his band downtown to play for the door. New Yorkers, he says, \u201clook at country as being a bunch of dumb hillbillies, but when Tramps used to be open, you used to have Willie Nelson come in, Merle Haggard come in, and the place used to be packed with people that know their country.\u201d\nNow though, he laughs at the CMA coming to a city with no industry backing the music. \u201cThat\u2019s what\u2019s really nuts\u2014they\u2019re going to have the CMAs here with no fucking radio to support it,\u201d he says. \u201cHow duh is that?\u201d\nFiled under: Feature Stories, Press",

        "raw_content": "While walking around Hillside Ave in Jamaica from Susan B. Anthony middle school towards Parsons I noticed that it was dominated by small businesses like deli\u2019s and laundromats that are accessible and convenient for the mix of private homes and apartments in the area. The stores in the area are affordable and there are no expensive retail stores. These businesses cater to the fast pace lifestyle of the busy streets with students, the working class, and families to provide quick and efficient services like food which may be why there are many food locations along Hillside. On the larger streets there are more apartment buildings but as you go into the smaller streets there are less apartments and more houses. There is a mixture of families and those without kids but is mainly dominated by families because there are many resources in the area suitable for them such as schools, day care centers, and parks. The area also has many routes of transportation which is useful because many cannot afford cars or don\u2019t have one because there are limited parking spots, especially around apartment complexes. There are not many definitive aspects I noticed that determine poverty or affluence besides style of housing. Since the stores in the area are the same throughout I focused on housing. People with private housing and access to luxuries like a driveway, cars, more space, and privacy differ in affluence from those in apartments with limited space and amenities. This results in differences in daily expenses such as transportation, rent/mortgage, utilities, laundry, etc. People without homes reside on busy streets in front of stores or subway stations. From what I could see there were no shelters or temporary housing for homeless people. One of the resources I noticed for people who are homeless or struggling financially was a food pantry where people can get free food items to fulfill their basic dietary needs. Overall, I realized that Hillside gives off a city feel even though it is mixed with a residential atmosphere.\nAssignment 1 - Urban at 1st Glanceaffluence, housing, poverty, resources\nPingback: Exploring Hillside Ave with a New Set of Eyes \u2013 Urban Studies 101",

        "raw_content": "Radiation has been leaking out of the Fukushima power plant every day since the meltdown.\nTEPCO, the Japanese electricity company in charge of monitoring the plant, has admitted that radioactive material has been leaking into the Pacific Ocean from the defunct power plant for the past six years and that the problem is far from over.\nAnywhere between 300 to 450 tons of contaminated water have been released into the Pacific Ocean from the Fukushima Daichi site on a daily basis. It is believed that the water contains traces of radioactive iodine, cesium, and strontium-89 and 90.\nDespite the best efforts of the Japanese government and the scientific community in the country, fish in the region have most certainly been affected by the output of radiation into the ocean from the power plant.\nMany of the fish caught in the region have tested positive for huge amounts of radiation resulting in the closure of many fisheries in the region close to the power plant. Studies have also shown that worryingly high levels of radiation have been found in fish caught on the northwest coast of the United States and in Canada which has been identified as emanating from the power plant.\nSenior environmental scientists who have examined the contaminated fish claimed that the levels of radiation are not so high as to prove to be poisonous to humans who consume them at this present time. However, they admitted that the situation would have to be closely monitored to ensure that the radiation level does not go too high.\nHowever, the claims have been contradicted by other scientists who claim that there is no such thing as a safe level of radiation in food products and that the radioactive contamination may well lead to health problems developing in the future.",

Whilst we are committed to delivering a fun, affordable, and interactive social programme, we are also hoping that the social elements of the programme contribute to enhancing the Forum as an event.\nWith the social programme it is also our intention to showcase the very best of Irish culture and heritage as well as providing lots of information which will allow Forum participants to explore the attractions and sights of Dublin.\nThe social programme of the 2015 VdGM Forum will have two main events plus an optional Friday morning walking tour. More information about the walking tour and how to apply can be found on the webpage \u201cWalking Tour of Dublin\u201d.\nThe Friday night social event will take place at the Forum venue and the cost is included in the Forum registration fee. Incorporating the formal opening ceremony, a buffet style meal, a demonstration of traditional Irish music and dance and an Irish set dancing workshop, this should proof to be a highlight of the Forum programme. Further information can be found on the webpage \u201cFriday Night Social & Set Dancing Workshop\u201d. Since this event is included in the Forum registration fee, there is no need to apply or register.\nThe post-Forum Saturday night celebration is a ticket only event with limited numbers and is not part of the Forum programme. We strongly recommend purchasing your ticket when registering. It will take place in the Gravity bar at the Guinness Storehouse, Ireland\u2019s premier tourist destination. We are hoping this will be a very special event to round off a fantastic second VdGM Forum. Of course for those people unlucky enough not to get a ticket, we will meet you in Temple Bar later in the evening! Further information about the event including how to purchase tickets can be found on the webpage \u201cSaturday Night Post-Forum Celebration\u201d.\nApart from the organised social elements of the programme, we are also looking forward to hosting the Forum in one of Europe\u2019s great capital cities. Dublin celebrated its 1000th birthday in 1988 and is a modern, vibrant, thriving multicultural melting pot of modern Ireland and Europe. With our green island known internationally as \u201cIreland of the welcomes\u201d, we are truly looking forward to receiving you in Dublin with a hearty \u201cc\u00e9ad m\u00edle f\u00e1ilte\"; literally, 100,000 welcomes!",

The goal of the VDV is to ensure a cockpit training that meets the high standards of the German aviation authorities.\nAs a result of many years of experience in flight training all 15 flying schools can provide training concepts that meet the needs of the market and comply with the requirements of the aviation authorities.\nIn addition to creating the basic conditions for the pilot training thus setting quality standards the VDV schools also provide in-depth advice and close support to the future pilots throughout the duration of the course.\nIntegrated ATPL course\nApproximately 75 percent of all flight students complete the integrated airline transport pilot training, commonly called integrated ATPL. Students with previous experience in flying, for example those holding a PPL and having some practical flying skills, are given the opportunity to take a less expensive, structured modular training at one of our member schools.\nVDV \u2013 a hallmark of good quality: JAR-FCL approved training\nAll affiliated schools train according to the amended JAR-FCL licensing requirements and carry JAR-FCL approval. As a result, the trainees have the advantage to be issued with a licence (ATPL) that is recognised and accredited in numerous European countries thus offering many job opportunities.\nNew entrance test for future pilots provides intensive back-up services from the beginning\nIn the VDV flights schools trainees benefit from the assistance and guidance provided by experienced staff throughout the duration of the training. These services also include talks about possible career prospects and job opportunities.\nThe recently developed entrance test is designed to even better prepare the applicants for starting out on their career. In the future, prospective students shall have the opportunity to pass a JAR-FCL approved test at any VDV affiliated school prior to commencing training. Thus applicants can find out about their lack of knowledge in any relevant subjects early enough.\nHowever, applicants are not the only ones to benefit from the schools' support in getting prepared for the aptitude test and optimising their personal profile. Airline companies, too, do profit from the schools' recruits since they can thus significantly reduce their own recruitment costs.\nJAR-FCL approved examination\nThe applicants will be tested in JAR-FCL relevant skills such as mathematics and physics (both at a basic level) and English. Beyond that, the eligible candidate must prove social skills, mental and physical resilience, spatial orientation and the ability to concentrate and handle multiple tasks in stressful situations.\nEntrance test at cost price\nThe entrance test is available at cost price. Future flight students who subsequent to the test start with a cockpit training with one of the affiliated schools can set off the costs for the entrance test against the costs for the flight training course.\nFor further details please contact our experienced staff members at one of our many flight schools (Flight schools).",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Peleg Austin Matteson Violin\nDr. Peleg Austin Matteson made this, his 8th violin, by hand in 1910 while living in Bennington, Vermont. He was a full time dentist in the town of Bennington, and had an avid interest in making violins. The back is from highly flamed red maple from trees cut in southern Vermont. The top is of medium grained spruce. The instrument has a robust, warm round sound and is in excellent condition.\nPeleg Austin Matteson\nPeleg Austin Matteson was born in 1882 in Shaftsbury, Vermont, the only son in a multi-generational family of Vermont farmers. Early in life he acquired a love of music along with other career shaping, non-agricultural interests.\nShortly after 1900, Peleg (who later became known as \"Doc\") gave up farming, much to his father's disappointment, and enrolled in the Albany College of Pharmacy, from which he graduated in 1906. For several years thereafter, Peleg practiced pharmacy in Auburn, New York. During this time he met his beloved wife, Mollie. Peleg's love for music, especially violins, grew. Being very skillful with his hands and also having an innate sense of things artistic, he took up not only violin playing but also violin making.\nOver several years Peleg made a number of violins, well over a dozen in all. Some he destroyed as unworthy but the better ones he kept, labeled, and numbered. Number 8 was one of these, kept until his death and passed along to his son.\nFollowing several years as a pharmacist, Peleg decided to go into medicine, first aiming to become a GP but later going for dentistry. He graduated at the top of his class from Baltimore Medical College, part of the University of Maryland, in 1912. Thereafter, for well over a half-century, he practiced dentistry in Bennington, Vermont, becoming known as the \"Dean of Dentists.\"\nThroughout his life, Doc retained his love for violins, violin making, restoring and playing.

Non-conference trips to California and Washington also are on the schedule for 2018.\n\"The final year at Kimbrough stadium is an important to a lot of former players and many alumni,\" second year head coach Hunter Hughes said. \"We want to celebrate the outstanding past teams and history of West Texas State, and West Texas A&M football throughout the year. As we transition to a new home on campus, we will not forget the efforts and teams that played and set the standard for West Texas A&M football, and plan to recognize each era that played in Kimbrough. We will travel quite a bit this season as we head to Azusa Pacific and Central Washington for out of conference, while traveling to the defending champions from the East. Overall, we once again will play one of, if not, the toughest schedule in Division II. We are excited to get to work and prepare to attack the schedule this fall.\"\nWT opens the season at Azusa Pacific on Sept. 1, 2018, in Glendora, Calif. The Buffs and Cougars have opened the season against each other each of the last three years with AP owning a 3-1 series lead all-time.\nThe Buffs return home to host Oklahoma Panhandle State Sept. 8 at 6 p.m. in Kimbrough Memorial Stadium, followed by a home date with Tarleton State on Sept. 15 also at 6 p.m. to open Lone Star Conference play. WT then heads on the road for two long trips as it faces Western New Mexico in Silver City, N.M., on Sept. 22, followed by a trip to Central Washington in Ellensburg, Wash., to close out the month of September on Sept. 29.\nCentral Washington went 11-1 last season and earned the top-seed in the football playoffs for Super Region Four, losing at home to Texas A&M-Commerce in the second round. WT owns a 2-1 record against Central Washington, as it will mark the first meeting between the two teams since Oct. 29, 2011, in a 49-35 WT win in Canyon. The teams also met in 2008 in the NCAA playoffs with WT winning 49-42, in Canyon, while CWU won in Ellensburg in 2009, 34-10 during the regular season.\nHomecoming 2018 opens October with a matchup against UT Permian Basin on Oct. 6 at 6 p.m., followed by a road trip to Angelo State (Oct. 13) and then the Buffs will look to get the Wagon Wheel back in Canyon, hosting Eastern New Mexico on Oct. 20 in the annual Wagon Wheel Game at 6 p.m. WT then concludes the month of October at Texas A&M-Commerce on Oct. 27.\nSenior Day is scheduled for Nov. 3 at 6 p.m. against Texas A&M-Kingsville, followed by a road game at Midwestern State to close the regular season on Nov. 10.\nFiled Under: kimbrough memorial stadium, WT Football Schedule",

        "title": "Independence for Kurdistan",
        "raw_content": "Iraqi Kurdistan's recent referendum on whether to declare independence from Baghdad garnered only slight attention in the U.S. Even the overwhelming vote (93 percent favored independence) and America's long involvement in the region did not make the story more prominent.\nNonetheless, we would be badly mistaken to underestimate its importance for U.S. policy throughout the Middle East.\nProtecting American interests in that tumultuous region has never been easy. Not only does Iran's nuclear-weapons threat loom ever larger, but the struggle against terrorism, whether from Hezbollah, ISIS, al-Qaida or any number of new splinter groups, seems unending.\nLess visible but nonetheless significant forces are also at work. Existing state structures across the Middle East are breaking down and new ones are emerging, exacerbating the spreading anarchy caused by radical Islamic terrorism. Non-ideological factors such as ethnicity and cultural differences are enormously powerful and best understood as movements in the region's \"tectonic plates,\" stirring beneath the surface of the more apparent threats of terrorism and nuclear proliferation.\nNone of these tectonic plates has more immediate implications for America's Middle East policy than the Kurdish people's long-standing determination to have their own nation-state. Modern-era Kurdish aspirations for statehood emerged during the Ottoman Empire's post-World War I collapse, as European powers redrew the region's map. The Kurds were unsuccessful in pressing their case, however, and their lands were split among Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria.\nNonetheless Kurdish longing for a separate state never dissipated, leading to considerable conflict, most visibly in Turkey. The West largely was unsympathetic in recent years because separatists in Turkish Kurdistan channeled their major efforts through the Marxist Kurdistan Workers' Party. Obviously, during the Cold War, Washington and the West generally had no interest in weakening Turkey and its critical geostrategic role as NATO's southeast anchor against Soviet adventurism.\nOutside Turkey, however, especially in Iraq, Kurds played a much more constructive role, helping the United States in both Persian Gulf wars.\nIraqi Kurdistan became de facto independent from Saddam Hussein's Iraq in 1991, protected by the U.S-led operation known as \"Northern Comfort,\" which included massive humanitarian assistance and a no-fly zone over northern Iraq. Saddam's 2003 overthrow opened the prospect of reunifying the country, but Iranian subversion, using Iraq's Shia majority to turn the country into its satellite, refueled Kurdish separatism.\nIraq's Sunni Arabs were also unwilling to be ruled by a Baghdad regime dominated by Shia adherents, who were little more than Iranian puppets. The rise of ISIS in Iraq occurred in part from this hostility, just as in Syria, ISIS capitalized on the anti-Assad feelings of Sunni Arabs, who felt excluded and oppressed by the dominant Alawite elite in Damascus.\nWith the destruction of the ISIS caliphate in Syria, the question of what comes next is unavoidably before us. The United States needs to recognize that Iraq and Syria as we have known them have ceased to exist as functioning states. They are broken and cannot be fixed.\nThis disintegration reflects the Middle East's broader, spreading anarchy, and it provides the context for Kurdish Iraq's overwhelming support for independence from Baghdad.\nI have previously suggested that disaffected Sunni Arabs in Iraq and Syria might combine to form their own secular (but religiously Sunni) state, which the Gulf Arabs could help support financially. Indeed, while substantial issues remain about allocating the Iraqi cities of Mosul and Kirkuk between Kurds and Arabs, the Kurds themselves are largely Sunni, which suggests considerable confluence of interest with their Arab fellow Sunnis. Helping a new Kurdistan and a new Sunni state might overcome the current split among the Arabian peninsula's oil-producing monarchies and focus their attention on Iran, the real threat to their security.\nUnfortunately, but entirely predictably, our State Department opposed even holding the referendum and firmly rejects Kurdish independence. This policy needs to be reversed immediately, turning U.S. obstructionism into leadership. Kurdish independence efforts did not create regional instability but instead reflect the unstable reality.\nIndependence could well promote greater Middle Eastern security and stability than the collapsing post-World War I order.\nRecognizing that full Kurdish independence is far from easy, these issues today are no longer abstract and visionary but all too concrete. This is no time to be locked into outdated strategic thinking.",

        "raw_content": "12 Things You Didn\u2019t Know About Some Of Your Favorite Christmas Movies\nChristmas films like A Christmas Story and Christmas Vacation go right along with mistletoe, carols, and cookies as staples of the holiday season. And in celebration of the 12 days of Christmas, here are 12 bits of trivia you may not know about some of your favorite Christmas movies.\n*All trivia via IMDB\n&apos;Home Alone&apos;\n(Image via 20th Century Fox)\n1. Being one the first western-made films aired in Poland after the fall of communism, 'Home Alone' is considered a Polish Christmas tradition, airing on prime time every Christmas season since 1990. In 2011 it aired on Polish television on December 23 to an audience of five million people, making it the most popular show during the Christmas season in Poland.\n2. The picture of Buzz\u2019s girlfriend to which Kevin says, \u201cBuzz, your girlfriend! Woof!\u201d was actually a picture of a boy dressed as a girl. Director Chris Columbus felt it would be too cruel to cast an actual girl for a single scene where her appearance was bashed.\n&apos;National Lampoon\u2019s Christmas Vacation&apos;\n(Image via Warner Bros)\n3. 'National Lampoon\u2019s Christmas Vacation' was the last film for Mae Questel (Aunt Bethany), who started her career in 1930 as the voice of Betty Boop, and continued to do the voice all the way up to 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?'\n4. Cousin Eddie asks Clark if his company \u201ckilled all those people in India.\u201d Though it may have made sense at the time, it\u2019s a dated reference that most don\u2019t understand today, referring to the Bhopal Disaster or the Union Carbide Disaster, where leaks from a Union Carbide pesticide plant vented into the air causing thousands to get sick and die.\n&apos;A Christmas Story&apos;\n(Image via MGM)\n5. The \u201ctongue stuck to the flagpole\u201d scene was achieved by having actor Scott Schwartz put his tongue on a small hole on the pole connected to a suction tube.\n6. The house from 'A Christmas Story' was purchased in auction in 2005 by a fan and renovated to look exactly as it did in the film, inside and out (some of the interior shots were filmed on a sound stage in Toronto), turning it into a tourist attraction. The buyer also purchased the house next door and turned it into a museum and gift shop.\n&apos;Die Hard&apos;\n7. Hans Gruber\u2019s death fall was filmed at 300 frames per second, as opposed to the standard 24 fps, to produce the desired slow motion effect. Alan Rickman was also dropped before he was ready to achieve the genuine look of shock.\n8. In the scene where John McClane drops down the elevator shaft, the intention was for the stuntman to impressively catch the ledge to the first vent shaft. Instead, the stunt man missed the vent and fell, but the shot looked so realistic that it was used in the final cut of the film, making McClane look more realistic, as opposed to the superhuman hero known in '80s action films.\n&apos;Elf&apos;\n(Image via New Line Cinema)\n9. The supervisor Elf, Ming Ming, is played by an uncredited Peter Billingsley, who played Ralphie in 'A Christmas Story.' Billingsley regularly works with his friends Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn, acting as a producer and/or extra.\n10. Buddy\u2019s 12-second belch was dubbed by voice actor Maurice LaMarche, best-known for voicing animated characters Brain in 'Pinky and the Brain' and Egon in 'The Real Ghostbusters.' LaMarche was experienced with belching voice work, doing the belching opera in the 'Animaniacs' episode 'The Greak Wakarotti'.\n(Image via Universal Pictures)\n11. There were several plot lines cut out of the final version, such as Emma Thompson\u2019s son being a problem child, the love story between the school\u2019s principal and her partner who is dying from cancer, Sam being an accomplished gymnast, and Rowan Atkinson\u2019s character revealed to be Cupid. And for the US television broadcast, the subplot of John and Judy, the two who meet as stand-ins for the sex scene on a film set, is cut out entirely due to content.\n12. The idea of the surprise band playing 'All You Need Is Love' during Peter and Juliet\u2019s wedding was inspired by Jim Henson\u2019s funeral, which director Richard Curtis attended, where the puppeteers brought their Muppets and sang a song in honor of Henson.\nNEXT: 12 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT MORE OF YOUR FAVORITE CHRISTMAS MOVIES\nSource: 12 Things You Didn\u2019t Know About Some Of Your Favorite Christmas Movies",

        "raw_content": "By Stefano Kaslowski\nMountain climbing is a hobby I inherited first from my Grandmother Cici and later from my mother \u2014 they both grew up in Torino near the Alps. I was born in Italy but live now in Istanbul, in Turkey, and I have been trekking and climbing around the world for years. Last year, I was excited to be working on a plan to climb Mount Elbrus in Russia, 18,871 feet, the highest mountain on the European continent.\nI knew I had a herniated disc, so when I developed numbness in my right toe I assumed that was the cause. I went to see my physiotherapist here in Istanbul, and I had an MRI that showed a Schwannoma tumor at the root of the S1 nerve on my lower spine. One of the first things I did after I was diagnosed was to call my expedition leader asking for the Mount Elbrus climb to be put on hold.\nI visited a few neurosurgeons, both here in Istanbul and in the United States, and got different opinions about my case. When I saw Dr. Roger H\u00e4rtl, he told me that my real question was not if to have surgery, but rather when to have it. He told me that sooner or later I would need to have the tumor removed to avoid complications in my right leg. Knowing my active lifestyle, the conversation with Dr. H\u00e4rtl prompted me to decide in favor of surgery as soon as possible.\nI had the surgery exactly one month after I noticed the first symptoms. Everything had been well explained to me, and the process was very organized. Dr. Roger H\u00e4rtl was very clear, focused, and confident, and I was very calm. Everyone on the team at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center was outstanding and extremely caring and welcoming. I was sure I was being treated by the best of the best.\nDr. Roger H\u00e4rtl\u2019s operation was so minimally invasive that I was able to regain my physical strength extremely fast. I basically had minor discomfort for less than three weeks after surgery, and I now have full function of my right leg and am feeling physically as strong as before.\nBest of all, less than two months after the surgery I completed my climb of Mount Elbrus!\nMaking that decision to have the surgery sooner rather than later allowed me to carry on with my normal life as if nothing had ever happened. It is such a relief knowing I am over the problem and able to resume all my normal activities.\nI can\u2019t think of any better doctor then Dr. Roger H\u00e4rtl or any better place than NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital for treatment. (By the way, the rooms looking on the river on the 11th floor are outstanding!)\n\u2039 Doctors Who Treat Spinal Schwannomas",

I had just finished my second and third period class and when I was heading to my fourth period class when I overheard people talking about a plane crashing into one of the Twin Towers in New York. I dismissed it as bullsh**. As I proceeded to walk towards my class, I managed to head in the direction of the school\u2019s library. As I looked in the library, I noticed a group of students and a couple of teachers huddled around a TV set watching the events unfold. Then as I advanced closer to see what it was they were watching, I saw the second plane hit the South Tower. People around me started screaming and crying. I was shocked beyond comprehension. I was then thinking about my dad. My father is a news cameraman for ABC 7 Eyewitness News and I knew that he was gonna be covering this event and I wanted to hear from him to know that he was okay. The day continued, eventually we had lunch. I had two more classes left in the day. I entered and saw my teacher listening to a radio and I heard that both towers were destroyed. I really needed to call my mother to ask if she heard anything from Dad. I didn\u2019t have a cellphone at the time so I had to borrow my educational assistant\u2019s cellphone and called Mom. I asked her if she heard from Dad she told me \u201cNo, but I have to go pick up your sister, they\u2019re letting kids out early today.\u201d So I was still thinking about Dad and wondering if he was okay. I went home and saw that everyone was glued to the TV and watching the events unfold. Eventually, I did hear that Dad was okay. As it turns out, he was blocks away when the buildings collapsed. On September 12th, I finally saw Dad come home but was physically shook up by what had happened.",

        "raw_content": "Report on New Measures of International Trade\nThe segmentation of production between countries inflates the value of trade because imported intermediates goods and services are counted several times, namely each time they cross borders. To reduce multiple counting in trade statistics and answer the question \u201cwho produces for whom in the world economy?\u201d, one needs a new measure of international trade based on the value added produced by each country taking part in the production process of a good or service. This report aims at stocktaking the recent initiatives to compile a measure of trade in value added, both by the academic community and international organisations. The main outcome of this report is that this new measure is essential to assess trade competitiveness or equilibrium exchange rates, to understand trade interdependencies between countries and bilateral imbalances or to gauge the impact of macroeconomic shocks and measure environmental footprints. However, this measure cannot replace standard trade statistics, which describe the \u201cphysical\u201d flow of goods and services and help in calculating transport and insurance costs. The compilation of value added trade statistics does not require new data collection, but would benefit from improvements in the quality of existing data. First of all, strengthening the quality, frequency and timeliness of national input-output tables would improve our understanding of production processes across the world. Second, linking trade and business statistics at the firm level would help analysing the specific production patterns of exporting firms in contrast to domestically selling firms. Third, international cooperation and the implication of international organisations will be essential to tackle the well-known issue of asymmetry of trade statistics. Finally, a new statistical tool in form of a satellite account could be developed to complement national accounts. This tool would bring together a country\u2019s foreign activities with respect to trade, investment and labour in one presentation \u2013 similar to tourism satellite accounts.\nStock-taking of Subjective WellBeing\nThis report is the output of a stocktaking of subjective well-being measurement in Europe. We have reviewed the different approaches to measuring subjective well-being, carried out a stock-taking of the different surveys that include subjective well-being measures around Europe and explored their characteristics, and interviewed selected individuals within National Statistics Institutes to understand their positions regarding subjective well-being and, if they are collecting such data, find out how it is being used. This report concludes with a series of recommendations to those advocating for subjective well-being data, or researching it, on how to better improve the quality and usefulness of the data.\nReport on Footprint calculation\nThe concept of environmental footprints emerged at the beginning of the 1990\u2019s through the introduction of the \u201cecological footprint\u201d. This indicator has achieved a large amount of media coverage and impact on policy discussion. In later years, carbon, water, material, land and biodiversity footprints were also developed. Footprint calculations are valuable because they directly link environmental pressures to consumption. Furthermore, this type of work can also help to answer other environment-economic questions related to the shifts in environmental burdens between countries (sometimes referred to as \u201ccarbon leakage\u201d or the \u201cpollution haven hypothesis\u201d). So far academia and research institutes are doing the bulk of the work in this field, but National Statistical Institutes (NSI) are also increasingly producing footprint indicators. For the most part, the calculations at NSIs are experimental. Footprint calculations, both in the academic and statistical world, are increasingly using multiregional input-output (MRIO) databases. Over the last few years quite a number of these databases have emerged (e.g. GTAP, OECD, EXIOBASE/CREEA, WIOD and EORA). These databases are increasingly relying on official statistics. This raises the prospect that these databases can start to be used in the production of \u201cofficial\u201d footprints by NSI\u2019s. This paper aims to answer the question: what prospect is there to introduce MRIO-based \u201cofficial\u201d footprints at NSI\u2019s? This is done by providing an inventory of the academic work as well as the work that is currently being done at NSIs. Furthermore, the MRIO databases that have been created, are reviewed. Following these overviews, the paper explores the differences between these database and NSI data are illustrated by taking the WIOD database and contrasting it to the data of Statistics Netherlands. The paper also discusses the problems associated with revisions of the national accounts which are currently taking place. Finally, this paper will show how the WIOD database can be adapted to Dutch statistics to arrive at an \u201cofficial\u201d footprint for the Netherlands.\nAnalysis of major practices of citizen consultation\nThe Office for National Statistics (ONS) is tasked with producing a set of guidelines and methodologies for stakeholder inclusion at the EU level (work package 7 of the European Framework for Measuring Progress). The guidelines will take account of the impact on citizens, relevant stakeholders and policy makers that have emerged from the Council of Europe\u2019s methodological guide \u2018Concerted development of social cohesion indicators\u2019. For this deliverable, the ONS analysed contributions from a questionnaire developed to identify citizen consultation practices in the development of progress measures within the EU and beyond.",

The numbers show that roughly 25 percent of Virginia\u2019s acute care hospitals, and nearly 42 percent of rural hospitals, operated in the red during calendar year 2014. That continues a pattern consistently reflected in VHI annual data. While the number of hospitals with negative operating margins can fluctuate from year-to-year, the ongoing trend of numerous hospitals operating in the red has alarming implications for access to health care, and Virginia\u2019s economy. Financial pressure can also impede a hospital\u2019s ability to make facility and equipment upgrades so patients have access to state-of-the-art treatment. It is commonly accepted in the industry that achieving a 4 percent operating margin is the minimum threshold necessary for hospitals to maintain fiscal stability and provide for capital expenditures. Based on VHI\u2019s 2014 data, 18 of 31 rural hospitals fell below that mark. Statewide, 40 of 89 hospitals were in that category, which includes some with negative margins and others with modestly positive margins.\nThe latest batch of data is evidence of hospitals around Virginia struggling with the pressures of longtime federal government care mandates that leave providers to deliver significant treatment volumes at free or discounted rates, as well as the pain inflicted by federal funding cuts that affect health care. From 2008-2014, the annual rate of Virginia acute care hospitals operating in the red has ranged from 38 percent to 25 percent. Among rural hospitals, the range is 63 percent to 42 percent. Even at the low end of the range, those numbers would be distressing as a one-time event. That they are not, however, is cause for public concern about the conditions that have put hospitals in this bind. Rating agencies such as Moody\u2019s Investors Service have tracked these troubling signs for years. Hospital leaders have responsibly managed their organizations by critically assessing staff levels, service lines, and other administrative functions with an eye on efficiency. Another response: struggling rural hospitals affiliating with larger health systems for survival. Such strategies can create short term financial flexibility but do not remedy the long term pressures created by government policy decisions. Consider Medicare and Medicaid, the joint federal-state health insurance programs that have been in existence 50 years. Reimbursements to hospitals for care provided to patients under those programs fall far short of actual treatment costs. And those pennies on the dollar payments aren\u2019t improving. As an example, the current inpatient reimbursement rate for Medicaid in Virginia is 66 percent, down from 79 percent in 2002. Additionally, a federal law Congress passed in 1986 requires all Virginia hospitals to provide emergency room treatment to patients regardless of their ability to pay. Virginia hospitals in 2013 provided $627 million in charity care, a 57 percent increase from 2008.\nThe persistent challenge of negative operating margins poses risks to Virginians\u2019 access to health care and the entire state economy. Is it reasonable to expect that Virginians across the Commonwealth should have access to high quality health care provided by hospitals? The Virginia Hospital & Healthcare Association believes the answer is \u2018yes.\u2019 Yes for the public good, health care access, and the economy. Hospitals are among the largest employers in the state, directly supporting 115,000 jobs, generating $36 billion in economic activity, and accounting for $17 billion in spending on local goods and services. Hospitals are a top employer in 82 percent of rural Virginia counties, where each hospital job supports two local economy jobs.\nBeyond government health care mandates, cuts due to the Affordable Care Act and sequestration that are not being offset by available resources stand as additional threats. Overall, funding cuts are forecast to deprive Virginia\u2019s local hospitals and health systems of roughly $1 billion annually by federal fiscal year 2021. The potential impact of those cuts should be a frightening thought for Virginians who value health care access and the importance of hospitals to our economy and well-being.\nAbout VHHA: The Virginia Hospital & Healthcare Association is an alliance of 107 hospitals and 30 health delivery systems that develops and advocates for sound health care policy in the Commonwealth. Its vision is to achieve excellence in both health care and health.\nTags : hospital data,virginia health information,virginia hospital data,Virginia hospitals",

I found a few new-to-me authors, read a few of my favorites, and discovered a number of gems along the way. I love reminiscing about the books that I've read and reviewed over the year, but it's never an easy feat to narrow my list down to just a few of my favorites. The one thing that all of these books have in common is that each one made me feel . Maybe you'll find a few to add to your own reading list! Enjoy!\n*The list is not in order of preference.\n*These were books that I read in 2017, they weren't all published in 2017.\n\u200b*Just \"click\" on the book cover to read my review.",

        "raw_content": "Communicating with government employees\nPosted: Mon Nov 20, 2006 1:58 am Post subject: Communicating with government employees\nCommunicating with government employees is very frustrating; I feel like they're just sucking my energy whenever I speak to them. If I don't act submissively, then they're extremely impolite and they don't do a thing for me. If I act submissively, politely or both, then they're totally bitchy. It's no fun to speak to them, but it often becomes necessary. I feel like I'm getting anxiety attack when I think about the next time I have to speak to a government employee.\nIs there anything we can do to not feel so exhausted, frustrated or distressed as we communicate with government employees? Any tip?\nMost government employees suffer from what I term \"little terrier\" syndrome. That is they belong to a body that is of some power but they individually have little themselves, therefore they have to assert power to show that they are important. This behaviour is typified in all sorts of professions where little the little power granted is reflected in an almost vindictive pleasure in wielding it.\nThe trouble is if you appear submissive, it is a sign that they can do what they want, if you don't then they are resentful. In most of these situations the only language understood is \"accountability\", if you appear like someone who is going to get them into a lot of trouble, then you will see an almost unseen side - flattering helpfulness.\nDoes sound very much like dog training I know, but it works.\nRefuse to deal with them like I decided to Now if I have the occasion to communicate, I do it via Email only.\nI think it's a problem with most public-funded bodies. There's invariably too many Chiefs and not enough Indians. They're all above their station (OK, I generalise a little ) and don't act is a business-like fashion (as they don't have to be profitable like rest of us).\nMy experiences of working for public-funded bodies is that it's more hassle than its worth. They have needless meetings (where people invariably don't know what they're talking about), like to pick your brain for ideas with \"tenders\" and so on... so, like OWG, I tend to avoid them nowadays.\nMr Mu wrote:\nOk ... how do you do this assuming that there is an occasion that you just have to communicate with a government employee?\nOK, this is just how I do things, but it is all about impression, tone and presence. If on meeting someone, talking on the phone or writing to someone, you appear to be someone who knows what they are talking about then you are likely to be treated with more respect.\neg. If you are talking to someone from a specific council or government department, read up on current legislation in their respective fields (This is along the lines of Sun tzu's theory of 'knowing your enemy'). If people are generaly being stubborn or inconsiderate, let them know and tell them that this behaviour is unsatisfactory and that you will be complaining in writing to their manager (a written record of any bad behaviour is not a great thing for any govenrment employee to have). Always get the name of the person you are dealing with at the beginning of every conversation, this makes them accountable and not just a voice on the other end of the line.\nThink on this. Would the same person act exactly the same if they had a call from a senior government official? I think not. People respect authority.\nI kind of did that, and \u2026, uh, it went more smoothly than I expected though the lady didn\u2019t exactly treat me like a waiter/waitress at a 5 star restaurant would treat me. I asked her to do a certain task for me, and I just spoke plainly what I was required to do before I asked her and I presented all documents; I didn\u2019t really wait and let her explain what was required to do or what documents I was required to prepare. She just took my documents and took care of the business. It was not the most pleasant interaction, but it was not the worst interaction, either. Some lesson to be learned \u2026\nGlad to hear it. I suppose it is important to realise that not everyone is the same. There are some people who just want to get on with the job. Last week I phoned up my credit card company and almost fell over with the cheery, helpful and charming person that I dealt with. Not at all used to that.\nAs an afterthought, do you think that if more people were actually recognised for being helpful in their respective jobs, that might rub off on the others? This would of course mean, that we as consumers of their services would have to go that extra bit and commend people, but hey, we are quick to pick up the pen when we want to complain. Why not the other way around?",

        "raw_content": "The best we can do to honor all those who laid their lives in these attacks is to fight terrorism instead of any particular religion, race, nationality, and color.\nSeptember 11th is acknowledged as a \u2018Black Day\u2019 in all parts of the world not only due to the causalities on the day but also for the long-term effects it had on the global peace. Nearly 3000 people lost their lives while 6000 individuals were injured in this tragic incident which occurred on 11th September 2001. In addition to that, the infrastructure of at least $10 billion was destroyed. This series of four coordinated terrorist attacks initiated a wave of violence and brutality, around the world, which has killed millions of people (primarily Muslims), since then. The association of \u2018al-Qaeda\u2019 with these attacks is the primary reason why the Muslim community had to suffer the most.\nThe first of these attacks took place at 8:45 am when a Boeing 767 of an American Airlines (Flight 11) smashed into the north tower of the World Trade Center. A few minutes later, another Boeing 767 from the United Airlines (Flight 175) flew into the south tower of the same building. Consequently, burning debris from the World Trade Center spread everywhere on the surrounding buildings and the streets below. Hundreds of people jumped from the buildings in order to save their lives but to no avail, as a significant number of people died in these attempts. While the World Trade Center was turning into a deadly inferno of rubble, Flight 77 of the American Airlines collided with the west side of the Pentagon. The last of these crashes happened in Pennsylvania when Flight 93 of the United Airlines crashed into a field to kill all the passengers.\nThe destruction of the World Trade Center and the nearby infrastructure dealt a massive blow to the economy of Lower Manhattan. Civilian airspace in the United States as well as Canada was put to halt for a couple of days. The Security Control of Air Traffic and Air Navigation Aids (SCATANA) was invoked for the first time in the entire history of the United States due to which tens of thousands of passengers were affected. All the international flights were either turned back or redirected to other countries. Similarly, the effect of this horrific incident on the global markets led to the closing of Wall Street until the 17th of September. A lot of evacuations, closings, and cancellations were also observed for fear of more attacks.\nThe President of the United States, George W. Bush, was in Florida at the time of these terrorist attacks. Following security concerns, he was shuttled around the country and arrived at the White House at 7 pm in the evening. He condemned these attacks in his address to the nation from the Oval Office at 9 pm. He also indicated the military response that the state will carry out against terrorists. He said,\n\u201cTerrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve. We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them.\u201d\nDespite the fact that President Bush acknowledged the contributions of American Muslims, a substantial increment in hate crimes was observed immediately after these attacks. Within days, several cases of harassment and hate crimes were reported by American Muslims and other South Asians. A lot of religious buildings, including mosques and temples, were also targeted. The murder of Balbir Singh Sodhi, a Sikh who was wrongly considered a Muslim due to his turban, led to considerable protests around the world. The tension between Muslims and non-Muslims grew significantly in a lot of countries which ultimately resulted in more harm than good.\nWe direly need to accept that terrorism has no religion, nationality, race, or color. The world has seen quite a lot of bloodshed of innocent people and things need to improve instantly if we want to achieve universal peace. Both Muslims and non-Muslims need to work together against this hideous issue of our societies in order to ensure the safety of our coming generations. It is high time to put aside our differences and work collectively against these terrorists as we approach the 17th commemoration of the 9/11.\n17th anniversary, 17th commemoration, 9/11, al-Qaeda, American Muslims, Balbir Singh Sodhi, George W.

        "raw_content": "Playing the Numbers Game: Accounting Degrees\nAn accounting degree will educate the student amongst others in the areas of auditing, business economics, tax law and compliance requirements. Those who earn a degree in accounting will also be expected to exhibit and develop adequate computer skills as they will be expected to work with financial database programs and spreadsheets. With plans in tow to implement stringent regulatory guidelines, the need for qualified accountants will continue to be in high demand.Accounting students wishing to earn further academic credentials can pursue accounting courses as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Management Accountant (CMA) and Certified Internal Auditor (CIA). Students who earn an accounting degree can expect careers within private and corporate accounting, management accounting or internal auditing.\nAccounting Degree Information\nStudy Options at Accredited Schools\nStudents in the field of accounting can major in business, with a minor or emphasis in accounting, or major in accounting and apply for jobs later in that field. The best way is at an accredited university in a four-year degree program, where students will earn a Bachelor of Sciences in Accounting that will qualify them for an entry-level position in nearly every and some of the top fields of accountancy.\nAnother option is to go through an online education program, especially if students live in a remote location or have a very busy schedule. Always check with Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business that the program and school you are looking at is accredited. Also, look into community colleges where you can earn or work towards earning an associate's degree in accounting and transferring into a four-year college or university.\nMaster Of Science And Doctorate\nA Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Accounting generally takes a full year to complete at an accredited school. A Ph.D. in Accounting, which takes about four years to finish, involves studying accounting theory and research techniques, as well as teaching fundamentals. Each degree requires coursework and a thesis, depending on the individual program. Other degree options offer a variation on accounting, such as a Ph.D. in Business Management with an emphasis in accounting.\nThose who want to further their education can attend business school and earn a Master's of Business Administration with a strong focus in accounting or MBA in Professional Accounting. These programs incorporate business management skills with accounting theory and practice and usually offer a broader range of topics, ensuring a less specialized field of study. In order to earn an MBA, you will need to have a degree in a business-related field like accounting and take the Graduate Management Admissions Test, or GMAT to apply for business school.\nChoosing A Focus In Accounting\nSpecialization is very important to accounting, with several major areas of study. Forensic accounting analyzes documents and establishes evidence of criminal activity, such as tax evasion or fraud. Management accounting deals with providing managers in organization with accounting information so they can make an informed business decision. Financial accounting involves preparing financial statements for people outside of the organization, such as suppliers, banks, stockholders and the government. Choosing a focus will help students find the career path as an accountant and help them determine if they need to take any kind of certification exam.\nEarning an Accounting And Bookkeeping Certification\nAccounting and bookkeeping certificate programs prepare accountants to work in practically any corporation, business or organization in an entry-level position. Students learn about journals and ledgers, preparing payroll documents, the theory of double entry and reconciling banking statements.\nGraduating from an accounting and bookkeeping certificate program means you have learned theoretical and practical applications of recordkeeping and accounting systems for business, along with maintaining financial records of expenditures, profit and loss and payables and receivables. You will also become familiar with computer programs like database software and spreadsheets to help keep track of bookkeeping and accounting operations. Having the certification gives you an employable edge, besides learning and practicing the same skills you will need on the job.\nCertified Public Accountants (CPA) offer general services ranging from corporations to private individuals, advising on financial plans and investments. Other responsibilities could include preparing financial reports like personal tax returns or checking up on people\u00eds tax returns for the IRS.\nIn order to become a CPA, those with a degree in accounting need to take the CPA exam, designed and graded by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, as well as a separate exam on ethics. Only licensed CPAs can provide opinions on financial statements, including auditing, in most U.S. states. While CPAs often serve as business consultants to the public and corporations or associations, they also provide services such as assurance, financial accounting, merger & acquisition, financial planning and analysis, tax preparation and more.\nOther Certifications For Accountants\nCertified Management Accountants (CMA) and Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) exams differ in their legal status and the kind of services they provide. CMAs work with accounting management while CIAs focus on internal auditing. Both certifications require passing arduous, four-part exams. Accredited Business Accountants (ABA) specialize in small to mid-sized businesses and must take an eight-hour comprehensive exam testing financial accounting, reporting, statement preparation, taxation and business law.\nMost accountants specialize in one area, but general accounting education covers all of them so students can get a better idea of what kind of work they would want to concentrate in later. No matter where students earn an accounting degree, they will need to put in a great deal of time and effort learning the material.\nAll accounting students will need to take specific courses, such as accounting basics, information systems, managerial accounting, economics, financial reporting, forensic accounting, payroll administration and cost accounting. Other possible coursework includes international business, regression analysis, forecasting, tax law, business law for accounting, income taxation, financial statements, mergers and acquisitions, compensation and bankruptcy.\nAccounting Degree FAQs\nAccounting is the study of measuring, analyzing and interpreting financial activity by providing assurance of financial information, as well as compiling and preparing financial records. Managers, tax authorities and investors within organizations, companies and public agencies, such as the government, use this information to allocate resources. Another way to look at accounting is as the language of business, communicating and expressing financial practices that shape groups, which makes it more than just crunching numbers.\nThose who want to pursue a degree in accounting should express an interest in business and finance. Accountants can study in several fields, focusing on four areas: management accounting, public accounting, government accounting or internal auditing.\nWhat Skills Will I Gain Through an Associate's Degree Program in Accounting?\nCompletion and graduation from an associate's degree program in accounting will ensure that you're ready for the next level of study, whether a bachelor's degree program or advanced certifications.\nAn associate's degree in accounting will not only familiarize you with field terminology, but it will also offer the foundation and groundwork pertaining to field related issues, strategies, ethics and management.\nWhile pursuing an associate's degree online, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy an efficient form of study, review and testing. The experience will enable you to retain the necessary knowledge to enjoy success at the professional level or to pursue higher education.\nA bachelor's degree in accounting prepares students for rewarding careers within the field. Focusing on a wide array of introductory and advanced subjects, students in a bachelor's degree program will get a firm foundation of the expertise required for work within the field of business and accounting. Students should expect a steady dose of courses in math, statistics, business, business management, business strategy and of course, technology.\nGeneral Information About Accounting MBA\nMost universities and colleges that offer master's degrees in business administration present a concentration in accounting. The degree is often pursued by those who have already entered the workforce and want to learn new skills that will enhance their career options.\nMany schools have flexible programs that allow non-traditional students to finish classes at their own pace. Some schools offer full-time, part-time, distance learning and online classes to help students earn their degrees.\nMany online accounting MBA programs culminate in degrees that do not indicate whether the student earned it through online instruction or traditional classes. Since students who earn online degrees receive the same training and skills as traditional students, it is not necessary for potential employers to know who earned a degree online.\nAccounting MBA Curriculum\nAccounting MBA programs should incorporate a curriculum designed to give you a solid foundation in business. Most of the classes focus on specific areas related to accounting, such as taxes, auditing, accounting data analysis, strategic control systems, managerial accounting, financial statement analysis and cost management. In addition, many programs provide core business studies to offer an understanding of how small and large organizations function.\nWhat Are The Best Career Opportunities In Accounting?\nAccountants have a wide range of occupations to choose from, whether it is in a specialized field of accountancy or in a general area of business. Loan officers, bank officers, underwriters, tax collectors and actuaries are all well-paying jobs. Other careers include FBI agents, commodities traders, IRS investigators, securities brokers or chief financial officers.\nSome careers need further education in a different field. For example, tax lawyers need to attend law school and earn a Juris Doctor (J.D.) before they can practice. FBI agents need to pass numerous tests and a rigorous training process. Depending on the career, accounting graduates will need to go through more schooling or testing.\nWhat Can I Expect By Way Of Salary With an Accounting Degree?\nNearly every entity needs some form of accounting, whether it is non-profit, government, corporate or individual, accounting is a field with a steady growth rate and a positive job outlook. Accountants, particularly a CPA or those with a M.B.A., can earn up to $100,000. Most entry-level positions start anywhere from $30,000 to $40,000, while the median salary for an accountant is $47,000.\nAccounting Student Guide\nStudents will be required to study several texts to learn how to apply their accounting knowledge in practice. Many of these books include problems to solve, like \"College Accounting\" by Jeffrey Slater, \"Management Accounting\" by Anthony A. Atkinson and Robert S. Kaplan and \"Accounting Information Systems\" by Marshall B. Romney and Paul John Steinbart. Search your school\u00eds bookstore or library catalog to find these, or search for specific accounting books on the web.\nAccounting students may have to research outside sources, such as periodicals, trade journals and articles for coursework. Earning an accounting degree from a university means access to library databases, such as LexisNexis Academic, Factiva and Academic Search Premier, or EBSCO. Find free access to the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times and other major newspapers, as well as other publications.",

The highlight is a clip of the two singing and dancing to Me and My Gal on The Gene Kelly Show in 1959. Though only thirteen, Minnelli was already a polished performer and the two are very sweet together.\nOf course, Kelly first sang and danced to Me and My Gal with Minnelli\u2019s mother, Judy Garland in the 1942 movie of the same name, which was also Kelly\u2019s screen debut:",

        "raw_content": "\u201cAuthenticity is a collection of choices that we make every day. It\u2019s about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen.\u201d -Brene Brown\nI turned 38 last week, and it feels\u2026different. Nothing to do with feeling older; in fact, just the opposite. There\u2019s a comfortable confidence to it. Maybe even a little more courageous than past years. With that said, people my age, women in particular, face a new struggle when we reach a certain point in life. And it has to do with a word I see, and hear everywhere lately. Everywhere\u2026\nIt\u2019s like the adulting word for popular. Think about it. In the professional world, relevance is key to everything from a speedy and successful job search to beating out twenty of your co-workers for the prized promotion. I won\u2019t even go into the article I came across recently titled \u201cHow to Stay Relevant in Marketing after 40 (face plant). ..And then there\u2019s relevance in our personal lives. Is how we choose to spend our downtime relevant to our role as a partner, parenting? But listen and look closely. Below is the definition of Relevance:\nRelevance: appropriate to the current time, period, or circumstances; of contemporary interest.\nNotice the words current and contemporary. Buzz words that we hear all the time, but as flashy and forward-thinking as these two words insinuate, they have one vital commonality. Lack of longevity.\nSo that brings us to question: How do we become relevant without compromising authenticity and our unique identity?\nI believe that the secret to relevance, is to discover your reason, whatever that may mean to you. Be it in the workplace, in your relationships with peers and partners and in your own personal journey through life, the parts which with only you are familiar. The road to your own reason in life is lost without embracing, perhaps at times even facing, our unique identity in this world. Relevance, without authenticity lacks reason.\nRelevance is the sprinter. She can dodge any curveball, jump through hoops and can even play a mean game of keep-away when she has to. But she changes her game a lot. And once she\u2019s done, she\u2019s done. After all, she has to keep up with everyone else. Authenticity is the endurance athlete in our lives. She stands the test of time, and doesn\u2019t wash away with the weeks, months, and years of change ahead. She\u2019s the one who will give hugs rather than handshakes because it is what she knows, even if others are seemingly unfamiliar. Yet, neither is mutually exclusive. It\u2019s finding the sweet spot between the two that will get all of us through the long haul(s) in life.\nI\u2019m not gonna lie. I want to be relevant just as much as the next person. I would love my writing to appeal to everyone who reads it. I\u2019d be elated if my daughter liked The Bangles as much as I did, and I\u2019d be running the marketing world by now if every perspective employer thought my experience was as diverse and eclectic as it is through my eyes. But time and years have given me some perspective. I no longer yearn to seek outside mediums for validation of relevance, but rather, I look to my own reflection for my true measure of relevance in this world. Once you find this sweet spot where confidence dances with surrender, you\u2019ll never want the song to stop.\nIf you\u2019re lucky, you\u2019ll find people and places who value your relevance on your own terms. I\u2019ve been beyond fortunate to have kept friends for 30+ years, even when I\u2019ve chosen to merely sprint against my better judgment. I have family, who has put up with the stubbornness and stillness of getting in my own way. And then there\u2019s AddeoFit. Not only a place, but a tribe of individuals who rally to embrace relevance on each individual\u2019s own terms.\nWhether you\u2019re a brand new 38 or a seasoned 74, I hope you find the courage to measure relevance of yourself, and others with an open heart, kind spirit and authentic intentions. This formula, after all, is a measurement that stands the test of time.",

Photograph: AFP/Getty Images\nThe north London house where friends and family of Sarah Kyolaba, the last surviving widow of the Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, are to say their final goodbyes sits vacant and unattended. Neighbours on the quiet street in Palmers Green are unaware of the funeral that is set to take place there \u2013 perhaps a fitting tribute to Kyolaba, whose privacy masked a life of tumult and extravagance.\nKyolaba arrived in Britain more than three decades ago and was latterly the proprietor of a modest hair salon in nearby Tottenham. She died aged 59 at the Royal Free hospital, in Hampstead, last week after a battle with cancer.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know who lives in the house,\u201d said one neighbour, who has lived in the area for 10 years. \u201cBut there have been a lot of functions there this week. Something must have happened.\u201d\nKyolaba, Amin\u2019s fifth and \u201cfavourite\u201d wife, went by the title Lady Sarah Kyobala Idi Amin. She was once nicknamed \u201cSuicide Sarah\u201d because of her former career as a go-go dancer for the Ugandan army\u2019s Revolutionary Suicide Mechanised Regiment Band.\nShe married Amin after he was taken by her performance when she was 19. At the couple\u2019s \u00a32m wedding in Uganda\u2019s capital, Kampala, in 1975, the future Palestinian president Yasser Arafat was best man. Amin, a one-time heavyweight boxing champion and soldier in the British colonial army, is said to have cut the wedding cake with a sword.\nAmin\u2019s time as president between 1971 and 1979 was riddled with humans rights abuses and corruption, with an estimated 300,000 Ugandans murdered and thousands more Ugandan Asians expelled during his reign. Amin was forced fromUganda in 1979 and fled with his family to Libya and then Iraq, before settling for a life outside of politics in Saudi Arabia.\nKyolaba had met Amin while she was in a relationship with another man in Masaka. On Christmas Day in 1974 she gave birth to a baby by her former lover and fiance. But Amin, who notoriously claimed to have fathered 43 children, declared the baby to be his own and ordered that the birth be announced on television. The fiance disappeared not long afterwards.\nWhen Kyolaba left Amin in 1982, she took with her the third of her four children, Faisal Wangita. She spent some time working as a lingerie model in Germany before settling in London.\nA more recent image of Sarah Kyolaba. Photograph: Alamy\nIn 1999 she avoided a jail sentence after pleading guilty to allowing cockroaches and mice to overrun her east London cafe, Krishna\u2019s.\nIn recent years Kyolaba continued to defend Amin. Following his death from kidney failure in 2003, she said he had been a \u201ctrue African hero\u201d and a \u201cwonderful father\u201d.In 2007 Faisal was involved in the gang murder of an 18-year-old Somali man in Camden, and was convicted of conspiracy to wound. He was jailed for five years and later deported back to Uganda.\n\u201cHe was just a normal person, not a monster. He was a jolly person, very entertaining and kind,\u201d she said in an interview. \u201cI learned a lot of things from him, not because I was married to him but as a growing woman \u2026 things like leadership, self-confidence and initiative.\u201d\nShe described herself on her Facebook page as the \u201cformer first lady of Uganda\u201d, and displayed a black and white picture of the wedding.\nShopkeepers in Tottenham remembered her as a very \u201cnice and friendly\u201d member of the community. Swaleh Lwanja said Kyolaba and her family would often come to his restaurant, and she rarely spoke about her former life.\n\u201cI never sat down and had a chat with her about her past. I knew her as a friendly member of the community. Most people just knew her as a nice lady,\u201d he said.",

It flourished from the 14th to the 18th centuries, during which time it grew to be one of the world\u2019s largest and most cosmopolitan urban areas and a center of global diplomacy and commerce. Ayutthaya was strategically located on an island surrounded by three rivers connecting the city to the sea. This site was chosen because it was located above the tidal bore of the Gulf of Siam as it existed at that time, thus preventing attack of the city by the sea-going warships of other nations. The location also helped to protect the city from seasonal flooding.\nThe city was attacked and razed by the Burmese army in 1767 who burned the city to the ground and forced the inhabitants to abandon the city. The city was never rebuilt in the same location and remains known today as an extensive archaeological site.\nAt present, it is located in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province. The total area of the World Heritage property is 289 ha. ~ source : unesco.org\nAll around the city of Ayutthaya we could see the ancient ruins.\nFrom here I'm going to take you to a photo tour of the area.\nHere's a short video clip from our visit to the Historic City of Ayutthaya.\nWe did this tour with River Sun Cruise which costs 1553 THB. It's super duper hot however you could find a handful of stalls selling refreshments as well as souvenir shops before you enter the park. Don't forget to apply sunblock.

The definition of a public place under the Firearms Acts is a place where the public have admittance at the materiel time, whether on payment or not - this would include field target open shoots and the like, then there are fairground rifle ranges, scout shoots, etc etc.\nI appreciate what you mean about it always having been banned, BUT possessing an air rifle in a public place without reasonable excuse is NOW an offence, and shooting people has always been an offence - something I made clear - I hope.",

        "raw_content": "Bank Muamalat Malaysia courts merger, Bank Rakyat and MIDF among possible candidates on its list\nPETALING JAYA: Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd is said to be revisiting the idea of a merger, but this time possibly with a development financial institution (DFI), sources said.\nAmong the possible candidates are Bank Rakyat Malaysia Bhd and Malaysian Industrial Development Finance Bhd (MIDF), the sources added.\nBank Muamalat and Bank Islam Malaysia Bhd \u2013 ultimately owned by Lembaga Tabung Haji \u2013 are the only two standalone Islamic banks in the country licensed by Bank Negara.\nDFIs, meanwhile, are specialised financial institutions established by the Government with the specific mandate to develop and promote key sectors that are considered of strategic importance.\nDFIs include Bank Simpanan Nasional, Export-Import Bank of Malaysia Bhd, Small Medium Enterprise Development Bank Malaysia Bhd or SME Bank and Bank Pembangunan Malaysia Bhd as well as Bank Rakyat and MIDF.\nTo recap, the shareholders of Bank Muamalat had been in negotiations with Affin Holdings Bhd, but talks between the parties were called off at end-March.\nIt was reported that Affin had sought to acquire a portion of DRB-Hicom Bhd\u2019s 70% stake in Bank Muamalat, but the deal fell through due to pricing issues. Talks between the parties had commenced in August last year. At that time, Affin had said that it expected to conclude the talks by the end of 2012.\nDRB-Hicom, whose interests vary from ports to property development, had acquired the 70% block in Bank Muamalat in 2008 on the condition that it eventually reduced this to 40%.\nIt is learnt that Affin was looking to buy 30% of Bank Muamalat from DRB-Hicom.\nKhazanah Nasional Bhd owns the remaining 30% of Bank Muamalat.\nAffin\u2019s withdrawal from the talks was seen as putting DRB-Hicom in a tight spot, given that it has to pare down its stake in accordance with Bank Negara regulations.\nIndustry players have said that the idea of a merger between Bank Muamalat and Bank Rakyat is an attractive proposition, given that both are Islamic concerns, with Bank Rakyat being the country\u2019s largest Islamic cooperative bank.\nBank Rakyat, according to sources, is believed to have ambitions to grow its commercial banking segment and a clear path to this would be via a merger with an Islamic bank.\nIndustry observers have also noted that it has always been the aspiration of the central bank to create a mega Malaysian Islamic bank, which would cement the country\u2019s status as the world\u2019s largest sukuk market and hub for Islamic finance.\nBank Muamalat has had a tough time courting suitors over the past few years, having failed to strike a merger deal with Bank Islam Malaysia in 2011 and Bahrain-based Islamic lender Al Baraka Banking Group prior to that.\nOn the positive side, Bank Muamalat has worked to clean up its books and improve its returns over the last few years.\nFor the financial year (FY) ended March 31, 2013, Bank Muamalat posted a record pre-tax profit of RM236mil, with revenue rising close to 12% to nearly RM1bil. Its asset size stood at RM21.07bil.\nThe bank began operations in October 1999, with its combined assets and liabilities being brought over from the Islamic banking windows of the-then Bank Bumiputra Malaysia Bhd, Bank of Commerce (M) Bhd and BBMB Kewangan Bhd.\nBank Rakyat, meanwhile, has been enjoying good profitable growth over the years, breaching the RM1bil profitability mark in 2008. For FY2011, it made a profit before tax and zakat of RM2.02bil, with the bulk of its financing income coming from consumer banking.\nFor the first three months to March 31, 2013, its profit before tax and zakat was RM539.52mil.\n(The Star Online / 20 Aug 2013)\nLabels: Bank Muamalat Malaysia",

The paved road stops after a while and turns into a dirt track. If you want you can park your car here. The rest of the directions are not very clear, because after a while you will encounter a fork in the road where there are no signs. Those who turn left end up at a garbage dump and than the road goes on up towards a church. You have to take the road leading right in order to get to the excavation.\nAnyone who believes that he will encounter an extensive Minoan excavation will be disappointed. We actually really only saw the sign and the hill and we walked around it and climbed it but didn't find anything. Yet there is a very small excavation. There are two tombs carved into the hill. One is still intact and the other has collapsed. Perhaps even more graves are concealed under the earth, but personally I found it, except for the fact that it was a nice walk, nevertheless disappointing, because if you put such a large sign on the side of the road you expect something more than that.",

        "raw_content": "Why Giving is Good for You\nIf you hate holiday shopping, this might make you feel just a little bit better about it. Research suggests that giving has multiple benefits, for both the recipient and the giver.\nGiving makes you happy. A Harvard Business School study found that giving money to someone else lifted participants\u2019 happiness more that spending it on themselves. Happiness expert Sonja Lyubomirsky, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside, saw similar results when she asked people to perform five acts of kindness each week for six weeks.\nSimilarly, a study conducted at the National Institute of Health found that when people give to charities, it activates regions of the brain associated with pleasure, creating a \u201cwarm glow\u201d effect. Scientists also believe that altruistic behavior releases endorphins in the brain, producing the positive feeling known as the \u201chelper\u2019s high.\u201d\nGiving is good for your health. Significant research has linked generosity to better health, even among the sick and elderly. Studies have shown that one reason giving may improve physical health and longevity is that it helps decrease stress, which is associated with a variety of health problems. In a study by Rachel Piferi of Johns Hopkins University and Kathleen Lawler of the University of Tennessee, people who provided social support to others had lower blood pressure than participants who didn\u2019t.\nGiving leads to social connection. Several studies have shown that when you give to others, your generosity is likely to be rewarded by others down the line\u2014sometimes by the person you gave to, sometimes by someone else. According to research, having positive social interactions is central to good mental and physical health. Additionally, when we give to others, we don\u2019t only make them feel closer to us; we also feel closer to them. \u201cBeing kind and generous leads you to perceive others more positively and more charitably,\u201d writes Lyubomirsky in her book The How of Happiness, and this \u201cfosters a heightened sense of interdependence and cooperation in your social community.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Scotland September 2014\nIn 2008 we visited Barbados after we discovered that many Irish Catholics had been deported there on slave ships during the Civil War, and that there are still direct descendants living there today (for more information on this trip click on Past Events). Whilst there we were taken to an area called Little Scotland and were soon to learn that it wasn't just the Irish who had suffered but the Scottish people too. On our return I started my research to find out more, beginning at the Battle of Dunbar. I was deeply moved as I read the plight of these Scottish soldiers.\nIn 1649, following the execution of King Charles I, his son Charles, Prince of Wales, was proclaimed his successor by the Scottish Parliament. This came to Cromwell's attention and when he returned from his campaign in Ireland, he turned his focus to Scotland. As a result, on 3rd September 1650 having won the Battle of Dunbar, Cromwell took around 5,000 Scottish soldiers prisoner and they were marched south to Durham Cathedral. Only 3,000 arrived on 11th September as some were forced to work the mines or salt works at Newcastle and Shields and many others died en route of hunger and cold. In the months that followed conditions imposed by Cromwell's army in Durham were so harsh that only around 1,600 survived their imprisonment in the Cathedral, and they were sold as bonded labour to Virginia and the Caribbean.\nWhen news of the victory reached London, members of the Rump Parliament decided that a Dunbar medal should be struck for both the officers and men. It was the first time such a military medal had ever been issued in Britain and there wouldn't be another until the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. As you can see it was inscribed with their battle cry \"THE LORD OF HOSTS\" and the bust of Cromwell. How sad for a man who hated idolatry.\nI knew one day we would be going to Scotland. However it has taken all these years since 2008 for us to make any connections there. In the meantime we have been led to unravel other areas that were also affected by Cromwell (all of which are recorded on this blog). In June this year I was invited to Edinburgh. God had made the connection needed with prayer leaders from Scotland and we were invited to address the issue of the Battle of Dunbar on 3rd September 2014. We agreed. God's timing is always perfect.\nAs Cromwell was a son of Huntingdon our plan was to take a letter of apology to the Scottish people signed by myself and many leaders from Huntingdon Churches Together.\nRev'd Scott Watts signing the letter\nRev'd Andrew Milton signing the letter\nOn 2nd of September the Arise team set off for Scotland calling at Berwick-upon-Tweed as Berwick played its part in Cromwell's Scottish campaign. As we prayed on the old bridge we could imagine the soldiers crossing over going into battle and the Scottish prisoners as they were marched south, never knowing if they would see their families or land again.\nBridge at Berwick built in 1645\nRev'd Andrew Bain welcoming the Arise Team\nRev'd Andrew Bain at the monument commemorating the Battle of Dunbar that stands outside the town.\nOn the morning of the 3rd September a service was held in St Anne's Church.\nIt was a wonderful occasion as ministers of every denomination were not only present but also took part in the service. Rev'd Andrew Bain opened our worship with these words, and I quote;\n\"We're here today commemorating a battle which in many ways seems a very long time ago. And yet the Battle of Dunbar and indeed all the battles of that war have echoes of what's happening in our world today. The war between King and Parliament was as much as anything a war about religion, and certainly manifested in that way here in Scotland. Men went into battle with the name of God on their lips and even on their banners, utterly believing that God was on their side and ready too smite down their enemies in God's name. It's not a world away from what's happening now and it shows us starkly how religion can be twisted into something evil when we lose sight of mercy and compassion. In a world where we're daily hearing about hostages, refugees, people driven cruelly far from their homes, we remember those who died on a battle field that's just walking distance from where we are now, and the fate that lay in store for the 5,000 defeated Scottish soldiers who were captured, walked south to Durham, starved on the way, half of them dying on the road and the rest sent into servitude for the plantations of the West Indies. You can only imagine the grief that must have brought such anguish to so many Scottish homes and families. The crying we see from broken-hearted people in Gaza and Iraq and Syria was heard on these streets of ours. So as we come to pray for healing and forgiveness for the shedding of human blood on the beautiful red earth of East Lothian, so we pray for healing for all the wounds of war: For the historic wounds of the Battle of Dunbar, for the First. World War we're remembering this year and for all wars in all times. We have made so many sacrifices, but God tells us through the prophet Micah that He wants only one:\"This is the sacrifice I want, says the Lord, that you do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God\".\nAfterward the singing of the hymn \"Make me a channel of your peace\" I was invited to speak and present the letter of apology to the Lord Lieutenant Michael Williams MBE. I was able to share a small part of my story, explaining how I felt called to address this part of history before I read the letter. I could feel the emotion rising up in me as I struggled to keep my voice from breaking. You could have heard a pin drop. The Lord Lieutenant replied saying \"I am honoured to receive this letter on behalf of the people of Dunbar and East Lothian. I receive it with humility and hope\".\nShirley presenting letter of apology to The Lord Lieutenant\nThis spirit continued with a real sense of peace and healing as everyone received their own copy of the letter and then we all shared lunch together.\nThe next day we went prayer walking around the battle sites. First we visited the grounds of Broxmouth House, the site of Cromwell's Mount. It was from here that he is believed to have directed his army.\nCromwell's Mount\nNext we crossed over the road and climbed up Doon Hill, where the Scottish army camped. We prayed here for sometime asking for God's healing and blessing on the land, its people, as well as the descendants of those who were deported on slave ships. As we walked back one of the team saw the sky full of huge angels blowing trumpets. We knew we must have hit the right note.\nView from Doon Hill\nArise team with Andy Philip\nAs Parliament was in recess due to the referendum on independence, we were unable to leave the letter, however we do plan to return. Instead we enjoyed a tour of the building.\nWe watched as God put people in our path as we went to many places which had been affected by Cromwell's invasion. This happened on the street in Linlithgow when we bumped into Rev'd Stewart Gillan, the Minister from St Michael's Church. St Michael's is set in the grounds of Linlithgow Palace and was where Cromwell had stabled his horses. After sharing the reasons for our trip I asked if I could read him the letter. He agreed and was so impressed he invited us back the next day to share this with his congregation.\nShirley, Rev'd Stewart Gillan and Andy Philip\nPresenting the letter to Rev'd Stewart Gillan\nThe House of the Binns\nWe were amazed how God kept opening doors, doors we could never have imagined. One of these was on Saturday 6th Sept when we received an invitation to The House of the Binns, an historic house near Linlithgow, the seat of the Dalyell family. It dates from the early 17th Century, and is currently in the care of the National Trust for Scotland. We had been invited to afternoon tea with Sir Thomas Dalyell, 11th Baronet, known as Tam Dalyell, and his wife Kathleen. Tam, as he asked me to call him, is a direct descendant of his namesake Thomas (Tam) Dalyell a staunch Royalist, who fought for the King in the Civil War. Soon after our arrival Tam asked me what \"this apology thing\" was all about. God was so gracious as He helped me share over tea what we had done in Ireland and Barbados. It was very clear that both Tam and Kathleen were touched by the story of the people in Barbados. I continued to tell them why we were in Scotland and again they understood. When I came to read the letter, they were both deeply touched and promised that the letter would be hung in the house for the public to see.\nTam and Kathleen Dalyell with the Arise Team\nIn 1651 Callendar House in Falkirk was besieged by Cromwell's army. We loved this beautiful house and grounds. It was so interesting, well kept and free entry for everyone to enjoy. The staff were very interested to hear about our trip and promised to pass the letter on to the right authorities. I have since been contacted by an Archivist in Falkirk and the Curator of the National Library in Edinburgh, asking if they can put the letter in the National Collection.\nThere are so many stories we could tell, from ministers who had come to realise that unless history is healed you can't move into the future, to a lady in Glasgow who is a descendant of a young man who was hanged by Cromwell's troops. She has his last letter to prove it. She had tears in her eyes as I read her the letter. There are many prayer groups we met too who have such a heart for healing of their land and its people.\nPraying on street with Katrina and Liz\nLife Church, Paisley\nDuke of Hamilton's Estate\nAs a Royalist, the Duke of Hamilton and the estate suffered under Cromwell. I hadn't planned to meet anyone here but the estate manager expressed an interest when I told him what we were doing. He was so impressed with the letter and our desire to bring healing to this part of history that he promised to make sure that the letter would be passed on to the correct authorities.\nCromwell hadn't made any headway at Stirling Castle but in 1651, after months of fighting and people starved of food, the Castle fell to the Parliamentarians. We gathered to pray on the battlements along with some of the prayer leaders who had invited us to Scotland in the first place. After a time I went to see who I could leave the letter with. I spoke to the gentleman at the Gatehouse. When I told him we had come from Cromwell's home town, he jokingly said \"to apologise?\". When I replied \"Yes\" he laughed. I showed him the letter, telling him that we would like to leave it with someone. As he read it his reaction was more than we could have expected. He said \"This is wonderful, fantastic. This is too important, you need someone in higher authority than me to give this to\". So he called the duty manager. Once again God opened the right door. She was so moved as I read the letter that she promised to pass it on to the guides so it can be part of the story of the Castle. She then took us through the gates and into the Castle to see for ourselves where the people spent their last days.\nChapel inside the Castle grounds\nParliamentarians took over this Almshouse\nReading the letter to the lady who runs a lovely coffee shop in the old Almshouse\nOn the journey back to Lanarkshire, we called in at St Ninians, Bannockburn, Kilsyth and Muirhead, leaving a letter in the Church at each place.\nRev'd Dr George Whyte, Presbytery Clerk of Edinburgh\nWe met Rev'd Dr Whyte at Greyfriars Kirk, Edinburgh. He told us that one of his churches at Collington was where Cromwell's troops were camped. He was grateful for the letter and promised that it would be shared with other church leaders in the City.\nGreyfriars Kirk yard\nMany were imprisoned here and some died of starvation as they waited to be deported to the Caribbean and Virginia. As we stood a while you could so easily imagine the people crying for those they had left behind. It's hard to believe that people could be treated this way. We spent quite a time praying, asking the Lord's forgiveness and His healing for all.\nAfterwards we headed off to visit Musselburgh, and Kelso.\nLiz and Vanessa\nAt Kelso, we had arranged to meet up with an old university friend of Vanessa's and we were so blessed by this connection. We shared what we had been doing over a very relaxed meal, and showed her the map of where Cromwell had been. To our amazement she has family in many of the places we had not been able to get to on this trip and she took the remainder of the scrolls and promised to take them to those places. It was a wonderful way to finish our time in Scotland.\nSt Nicholas Cathedral, Newcastle\nThe very Reverend Christopher Dalliston\nOur last day, September 11th, began in Newcastle with a meeting with the Very Rev'd Christopher Dalliston. Rev'd Andrew Milton from Huntingdon went to college with him and made this visit possible. We were joined here by a gentleman who had come down from Scotland and a lady from Newcastle. The Dean was very impressed with what we had done over the years, and as an historian himself, he too believed that there must be healing and forgiveness. He said the daily readings were so appropriate for that day and he believed that the Holy Spirit was in this. He invited us to stay for their lunchtime Communion Service, where he gave me the opportunity to say a few words before reading and presenting the letter. Once again we saw how God touched lives.\nThe Rev'd Anthony Bash, Chaplain of Hatfield College at the University\nAt Durham Cathedral we were met outside by Rev'd Dr Anthony Bash and Rev'd Robin Fletcher and invited to a private service in the Gregory Chapel led by Rev'd Bash who himself has a research interest in forgiveness and reconciliation. It was a very simple and moving service. The letter this time apologised for the plight of these men and the desecration of the Cathedral. After it was read it was placed on the altar. Rev'd Bash prayed, \"Gracious Father, we gladly accept this token of love and friendship knowing that it represents a longing and desire for continued grace to undo the hurts of the past. We look to you for continued healing in our lives, and commit ourselves to work together for the good of all people. Together we long for the daily, renewing grace of God, and pray that the stain of our past may continually be transformed by the renewal of our minds. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, and for His glory. Amen\".\nArise team with Andy Philips and Rev'd Robin Fletcher, Voluntary Chaplin\nRev'd Robin Fletcher then invited us all to a short service at the Shrine of St Cuthbert where he continued thanking God for our visit. Afterwards as we said our goodbyes he kissed my hand. This moved me, as I felt it was a kiss from God. The perfect end to an amazing journey.\nBrain Lara 30 September 2016 at 10:11\nScotland for the current events.

In particular, the ability to quickly and easily run multiple operating systems and versions of applications on the same system at the same time can provide significant benefits for software developers and testers. Features that allow quickly rolling-back system state and making copies of VMs can greatly simplify common testing-related tasks. This presentation will begin with a technical overview of virtualization technology. Details related to several different methods of creating virtual environments will be provided. Topics include creating new VMs, managing virtual hard disks, and configuring virtual networks. A demonstration of creating and managing VMs using free virtualization platforms will be provided. Then, we'll look at a comparison of existing virtualization products for a variety of different scenarios, along with their associated pros and cons. Finally, we'll look at some best practices related to implementing and managing virtualization in development, testing, and production environments.\nAnil Desai is an independent consultant based in Austin, TX.

        "title": "A Brief Visit Back to Britannicus, by Leslie Weddell",
        "raw_content": "A Brief Visit Back to Britannicus\nBy Leslie Weddell (UK)\nIn the 400 years (or thereabouts) that the mighty conquering Roman Army occupied the mainland of 'Britannicus' (better known today as Britain) all they wanted to do after a hard decade or two of killing, pillaging and raping the whole place, was to just settle down to a quiet life of ruling the country.\nAnd the Romans certainly did this in England; teaching the uncouth inhabitants how to bathe, write, be able and useful as farmers, carpenters, butchers, and tradesmen. They even paid them a wage.\nThe Roman Governors and their underling Officers used their skilled soldiers in charge of each sector of the countryside to full effect, and besides showing the inhabitants how to do things, busied themselves showing off their skills by building arrow-straight roads mostly named Watling Street or Watling Road, plus fantastic load bearing aqueducts to carry water from the rivers in the hills to the towns and villages. They even introduced the first latrines, communal they might have been, but real 'loos'.\nAnd to boot, they had central heating in the important buildings by using 24/7 wood or peat burning fires under specially constructed brick floors.\nThey even introduced wonderful food, and created what today we would term a healthy diet, goading the peasants under their control to eat fish and bran or oat dishes, steamed vegetables, and fruit.\nIt must have been heaven in the cold winter months in Britannicus with this wonderful technology.\nBut during those 400 years not all was well in this idyllic picture of serenity and cultured society, for there was a problem that the Romans just could not seem to handle, even with all their superior skills and efficiency, for it came in the form of the constant appearance of the meandering Scots rebels who kept raiding the roman towns and forts in the lowlands of 'Caledonia' (Scotland)\nEven though the Romans had invaded Scotland up as far as the Firth of Forth (Edinburgh district to you and me) and made several attempts over the years to go into the Highlands of Scotland, they kept coming up against these die hard individuals that did not seem to want the niceties that the Roman Empire could offer.\nThis went on for years, and eventually the Romans withdrew to the boarders, along a line across England starting from the ancient City of Carlisle.\nOne lovely summer's day a new General from Rome named Hadrian stepped foot on the jetty alongside the small Roman river town of 'Londinium' (London).\nHe had been appointed as the new Governor of the Northern hemisphere of Britannicus.\nAfter what must have been a harrowing journey up to 'Eboracum' (York) or 'Pons Aelti' (Newcastle) (It is not recorded exactly were he went, but some historians believe it was Newcastle) in the North East of England, Hadrian settled into his new appointment and began to make his mark on the area.\nHe erected towns and forts with radical new construction ideas brought from the homeland, using skilled artisans. Hadrian did good things to improve the regions, such as building schools for the thousands of soldiers under his command that came from all parts of the Roman Empire including Germans, French, Spanish, Serbians, and many others.\nThey in turn introduced their own culture and foods to the new Roman Society in Britannicus, and to this day there is evidence of food dishes and other traditional ways of doing things credited back to that era.\nBut I digress, so let's get back to our pal Governor Hadrian.\nHe got so cheesed off with these raids by the Scots rebels across the boarder that he ordered the construction of a wall winding its way across England from Newcastle to Carlisle to keep them out. Quite a considerable distance of several hundred miles, and most of the wall and the mini forts the soldiers spent their long period of duty on are still evident today, nearly 2000 years on.\nSo was the wall built to keep the Scots out?\nI tend to go with the other school of thought that suggests that Hadrian's wall was built as a means of keeping thousands of home sick Roman soldiers meanfully occupied so that they would not revolt, in what must have seemed to them after the warmth of the Mediterranean, a God forsaken wilderness in the long winter months.\nIt is well recorded that as the years of roman domination in Britain rolled by many of the roman soldiers married local girls and brought up families that lasted generations, and indeed, today many people in the United Kingdom can trace their heritage back to the Roman Conquerors.\nWhat must have it been like to be alive in Roman Britain? Let's think about this for a moment.\nDepending on the year of course, you would probably be better off living about 200 years after the Armies came, for by that time everything would pretty much be settled in, and providing you were a good person willing to learn and show willingness to work, you would be treated in a decent manner by the Romans, and even given a good basic education and a skill to earn your living.\nOf course there was class distinction, but as long as you kept your station in life you would have been treated in a fair manner, for there is evidence that the Roman governmental authorities in Britannicus encouraged good community relationships to retain harmony.\nJust think again for a moment about the long void of several centuries after the Romans withdrew from Britain; when nothing but anarchy was strife between rival regional tribe leaders before the gradual establishment of government rule returned?\nSo all in all, it must have been a pleasant experience for many people to experience the many wonders of the Roman World in that era. It would be many centuries before latrines, central heating, and engineering skills of the magnitude of the Roman Empire, would be re-invented in the Victorian era.\nI am lucky to be a resident of the United Kingdom of today, and to be able to wiz up a modern highway or side roads of England, Wales and Scotland, enjoying the same fantastic scenery that the Romans must have seen, only in the comfort of my air conditioning in summer or heated car, in winter.\nBut I have one thing to confess. I am a Scotsman, and although I live in a beautiful part of England because of my work, I never cease to wonder at the beauty of Scotland on my frequent visits to the land of the waters of life, knowing that the Romans of so long ago enjoyed the same timeless beauty of that country too, despite the Scots not wanting them!\nThankfully, today, Scotland welcomes everyone from every corner of this wonderful Planet.\nThe Scots no longer have to raid England. Instead, they have something English people love, and indeed, famous the World over for.\nThe waters of life. I rest my case.",

        "raw_content": "This week\u2019s parsha is Shoftim: Deuteronomy 16:18-21:9, Isaiah 51:12-52:12, John 1:19-27. Shoftim is Hebrew for \u201cJudges\u201d.\nJudges are part of the landscape of a system of boundaries and rules.\nSubmitting to authority is a concept that seems largely lost in our culture, but is consistent with biblical teaching. When we submit to these boundaries we bring honor to G-d. (Rom 13:2)\nI believe Western civilization has moved from what was once called the Judeo-Christian ethic to a consumer-driven, choice-fixated culture without norms, ideals or shared values beyond the sovereign self, the freedom to be whatever one chooses, and to do whatever does not immediately harm others.\nAt the heart of contemporary culture is the atomized individual, detached from any commitments to the past, the future, tradition, a set of relationships, a substantive identity, and a sense of binding loyalties. That individual, the bearer of rights but not responsibilities, is free to enter any lifestyle but at home in none, and is the person whom Psalm 1 describes as \u201clike chaff blown by the wind.\u201d Society cannot survive such atomization\nAs a result, we also see huge turnover rates for spiritual leaders trying to lead their congregations because congregants, people like you and me, are unwilling to be led.\nPart of G-d\u2019s program for healthy living is to submit to the boundaries that G-d, his spiritual delegates such as our Rabbi, our government and our friends have set (Rom 13:1-5, 1 Peter 2:13-14).\nIn any relationship, in the absence of sin, what is left is preference. In order to maintain any community it is important to support the preferences of a humble leader, in our case, our Rabbi.\n\u201cHumble\u201d as used in the Bible, does not mean diffident, meek, self-abasing, timid, bashful, demure or lacking in self-confidence. Moses was none of these. It means honoring others and regarding them not only as important but no less important than oneself. It does not mean holding oneself low; it means holding other people high.\nG-d cares for all regardless of rank, and so must we. Greatness is humility.\nOnly by creating strong marriages can we argue the case for marriage. Only by sustaining strong communities can we speak with authority about community. Only by intense dedication to Torah study can we talk compellingly about education and the spiritual significance of the life of the mind. Only by being different can we offer an alternative to the prevailing cultural paradigms. Only by being true to what we are uniquely called on to be, can we give humanity what only we can give. To be a Messianic Jew is to live particular expressions of universal truths.\nThis is part of why TAJ is so important to me. We have many such people and couples that can claim strong marriages, are dedicated to Torah, and offer an alternative to the wider culture.\nTAJ is a refuge of shared values, commitments and strength. And, like the refuge cities in this week\u2019s parsha, it allows me to escape the pressing demands of life, where I can find support and insight as I rebuild my life through my recovery. At least in my life, I can not live a G-d filled life alone.\nOur neighbors need to hear a Messianic Jewish voice, \u2026 voices from TAJ, speaking persuasively of the covenant of marriage, the sanctity of the family, the moral challenge of parenthood. They need to hear the TAJ view of community, and collective responsibility.\nThe parsha in Isaiah, says that G-d is in control of our lives, yet we do not fear Him as we should. Instead, we fear people \u2013 people who don\u2019t really have any truly important authority over us. I sometimes succumb to my fear of disapproval of others. I seem to sometimes forget that I have said I have given all of my life to G-d and that I should strive to please G-d, who can bless me or punish me. I need to fear G-d more and people less.\nWe are called to share what we have learned from G-d with others and to be G-d\u2019s light in the world. Let\u2019s be bold together.\n1.

        "raw_content": "Have you ever thought about starting a business but then again you \u2018knew\u2019 that it was not possible? One reason is that you did not have the money and the other reason is that you do not have the slightest idea on how to run one. You may not know how to do this but as long as you have the drive to start a business, you will.\nMoney is not the main factor here as there are businesses that you do not need money to start. However, there are several things that you need to start and grow your business. Before you think about a business plan, there are more important things to do such as evaluating yourself, doing a research and having an idea of what you want to do.\nKnow Why You Want to Set Up a Business\nOne of the most important steps in starting a business is having a clear reason why you need one. People have different objectives as there are those that want to leave their current jobs; others want to make some extra money while others just want to build an empire. All these are valid reasons for why you should start a business but you need a clear objective.\nGet an Idea of the Kind of Business That You Want to Start\nYou must have an idea of the kind of business that you want to start. There are plenty of ideas that you can use to start a business and for you to break down potential businesses, you can research more about what interests you. Think about what you are passionate about and learn more about it.\nThere is a multitude of ways that you can learn from such as online, talking to people in similar businesses and even talking to experts in the industry.\nDo a Proper Market Research\nDoing a proper market research is another important thing when you need to be an entrepreneur. You should not go to the market blindly. Ensure that you do not rely on research from people you know as this could be misleading. It\u2019s of paramount importance that you get information from the core consumers either online or by talking to people randomly. This way, you will know the expectations of potential customers.\nEvery business should have what is called a business plan. The business plan should cover information such as the business description, competitive analysis as well as operations and management plan.\nBasically, this is everything about your new venture from how it starts, how you plan to run it and the main objectives. This will guide the growth of the business in a significant way.\nAlthough some of these things you can do them as an individual, it will be more successful if you hire an expert to guide you. It\u2019s a business that you are just starting and yes, you can miss out on important details.\nBusinessImportant ThingsSet Up a BusinessWhen Starting a Business\tContinue Reading\nMay 6, 2018 Bill\nWhen you are running your small business, you only think about how you will increase your profits to grow your business. There are two main problems when it comes to making profits. Some businesses are stagnant while others do not make any profit at all. Changing operating practices can help in maximizing profits.\nIncrease and Maintain Your Visibility\nIncreasing and maintaining your visibility is one way you can increase your profits. This is because you are always connected to your online clients. Your online reputation matters a lot that is why you should make good use of social media and affiliate marketing while at the same time avoiding ineffective alliances.\nYou will be able to reach out to more clients that you would in your locality. Let the design of your website is eye-catching and have the relevant content.\nTraditionally, businesses would be marketed on newspapers, magazines and TV stations. Things have changed and social media has taken over marketing. It\u2019s clear that technology has really revolutionized the way we do business.\nDo not rely on a single marketing channel but try several and see what works best for you. There are plenty of channels that you can choose depending on your targeted audience but also consider the prices.\nCovert Your Clients into Repeat Customers\nRepeat customers will increase the profits of your business and there is a possibility that they will bring in more clients. There are many ways that you can convert them for the benefit of your business. You can give discounts on delivery from time to time, make sure that you keep in touch with the customers and give offers with recurring bills. Know what your customers are looking for and give it to them.\nEncourage Sales-Generating Behavior\nAs an employer or a business owner, you need to promote a sales-generating behavior amongst your employees. Whether they come face to face with guests, they communicate on emails or receive calls; they should play a role in revenue generating.\nYou can encourage them when out team building, having daily briefings or during conferences among other events. Ensure that they are motivated in doing this.\nProduct recommendations are important in every business. A person will trust a referral from another person more than they would trust their instincts in buying something. You can create a referral campaign that will be of benefit to customers and your business.\nChanging your business operating procedures and automating it are also ways that you can increase profits. Besides increasing profit, having enough revenue will boost your business to another level. It is for this reason that expenses should be minimized.\u2026\nEncourage SalesMaintain Your VisibilityMaximize On ProfitsUp Your Marketing\tContinue Reading",

It's a good cast, though, and the direction so far is nice and taut.\nWicked Awake last night, especially with the revelation that Britten's alternate lives are being manipulated or at least monitored.\nOne thing is puzzling. Every time he goes to sleep, he wakes up to his other reality. One day he wakes up to a living son and a dead wife, working one case with a rookie partner, and visiting a confrontational shrink.

        "raw_content": "Ka-POW! Lorna, I think that's the best one-sentence critique I've ever read. Perhaps that's why Francesca is so rarely done?\nI heard several bits of Francesca on Saturday (BBC Radio 3) and wasn't wowed by it. I'm not a great fan of verismo (with a few exceptions), and the only operas by Zandonai that I've previously seen were \"I cavalieri di Ekeb\ufffd\" (OK) and \"Conchita\" (boring), both at Wexford. On the other hand, I enjoyed Rachmaninov's one-act \"Francesca da Rimini\" a few years ago.\nInteresting to see that Zandonai's \"Francesca\" has been performed 41 times by the Met - 11 performances from 1916-1918, then 16 in NYC and on tour in 1984, then 10 in 1986, then 4 so far this year.\n41 times over a 97-year span? Hm. I wonder how many times Faust was performed during that same period. The old Met was once nicknamed the Faustspielhaus because they did it so often.\nDuring one of the intermissions Saturday we were given a glimpse of next season's simulcasts:\nOct. 5 -- Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin\nOct. 26 -- Shostakovich's The Nose\nNov. 9 -- Puccini's Tosca\nDec. 14 -- Verdi's Falstaff\nFeb. 8 -- Dvo\u0159\ufffdk's Rusalka\nMar. 1 -- Borodin's Prince Igor\nMar. 15 -- Massenet's Werther\nApr. 5 -- Puccini's La Boh\ufffdme\nApr. 25 -- Mozart's Cos\ufffd fan tutte\nMay 10 -- Rossini's La Cenerentola\nThe Met's web site doesn't have all the details listed yet, and the glimpses we got of the upcoming season were very brief, but I'm fairly sure the four repeat operas are using the same productions that were used the first time we saw them. Eugene Onegin has that weird outdoor bedroom. The still from Tosca showed the second-act set, which is supposed to be Scarpia's luxurious offices but instead looks like a 1930s bus station. Only a tiny glimpse of the Boh\ufffdme set, but it looked like the Zefferelli production. And the Cenerentola still showed that same horrid blue and white striped wallpaper that made me cringe the first time I saw it. Joyce Di Donato gets to be Cinderella this time.\nIs it possible that the Met dug out parts of the old sets just to get some early publicity pictures? And new productions are in the works? Or is that wishful thinking on my part?\nAs I have so tiresomely mentioned before, I'm no fan of Massenet; so when I saw Werther on the schedule, I thought \"There's one I'll skip.\" The last Werther I saw had Franco Corelli singing the title role -- it's been that long. But then I saw the name \"Elena Garanca\" on the screen, so now I'm going to have to sit through an opera I don't like just to hear her sing. But two \"new\" operas for me, Rusalka and Prince Igor. Yippee!\nAndrew, have you seen The Nose? Is it all atonal? Is it funny, really?\nFOUR repeats? Have there been any repeats before?\nI've seen two productions of The Nose, one at English National Opera some years ago and the other, much more recently, at the Buxton Festival.\nI don't regard anything by Shostakovich as atonal (Jon may perhaps wish to correct me). He was a bit of a chameleon and wrote a lot of film music, 15 (I think) symphonies, lots of string quartets. Coincidentally, I'll be going to Manchester next Sunday to see his Paradise Moscow at the Royal Northern College of Music. Opera North put it on some years ago and I bought the recording - it's more or less an operetta with lots of good tunes. One scene, very reminiscent of the Marx Brothers' Monkey Business has the neighbours all crowding in to admire a young couple's new apartment to a tune that sounds to me like a polka.\nI've also seen his Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk three times. It's a real opera which gets darker and darker but has a number of comedy turns in between.\nAs for The Nose, well, it's an absurdist work based on Gogol (I think) and has lots of short scenes. The music isn't particularly memorable but it's well worth seeing. The protagonist's nose is accidentally cut off by his barber and it takes on a life of its own - at one point it becomes a councillor and turns up in church. The chief of police (high tenor, countertenor or soprano!) is on the trail and eventually the nose is returned to its owner. You can read the libretto here: http://web.archive.org/web/20080215065304/http://www.mrichter.com/opera/files/nose.htm\nFaust has been performed 747 times by the Met, according to their online archives. Some of these performances took place away from NYC, e.g. Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, St Louis, Cincinnati, Washington D.C., Baltimore, etc., up to about 1972.\n747 performances, wow. Figuring from when the Met opened in 1883 up to 1972, that averages out to a little over 8 performances every season. I saw only one of those 747 performances (Nicolai Gedda and Jerome Hines).\nI'd read about The Nose earlier, and I couldn't figure out from the skimpy plot descriptions exactly what it was satirizing. But \"councillor\" and \"church\" answers that question. Since it's Shostakovich, I should have known it would be political satire. Since you say the music isn't particularly memorable, that throws more weight on the story. Frankly, the story sounds unpleasant...starting with the barber's discovery of someone's nose in his beard.\nAustin, there's been one repeat so far -- Lucia. But they were different productions as well as different casts.\nHe found someone's nose in his beard? Yuck.\nRise Stevens, just shy of her 100th birthday.\nDiana Damrau really took her time with the \"Ah! fors'\ufffd lui\". I liked it.",

        "raw_content": "Business Intelligence / Sun's Gosling: Java Is Open Source and Doing Just Fine\nSun's Gosling: Java Is Open Source and Doing Just Fine\nQ&A: James Gosling, the father of Java, sits down for a candid interview with eWEEK about the open-sourcing of Java.\nJames Gosling, the creator of the Java language, is a Sun Microsystems vice president and fellow. Gosling spoke with eWEEK senior editor Darryl K. Taft at JavaOne and discussed the open-sourcing of Java, new directions for the Java platform and programming in general, new Sun technology and competing with Microsoft.\nHow did Java become another C++? It seems you created Java to enable developers to avoid the morass of C++ and now many developers say Java suffers from many of the same issues of bloat.\nWell, you can take that question in a lot of different directions. I think that Java the language has actually done a pretty good job of avoiding the rat's nest of complexities that C++ got into. And with C++, a lot of its issues were that it was based on a design from a long time ago when looking at security and the rest of that weren't really as big of a deal.\nAnd the evolution of Java the language has been really thoroughly scrutinized and vetted by the community. So I feel pretty happy there. The part that feels like it's gotten just unbelievably complex and hairy is all of the APIs. The set of libraries available in Java is just mind numbing. It's far huger than C++ ever got to. And in some sense that's an inevitable consequence of the range of things that people are building.\nIt's another one of these areas where this little thing known as the Peter Principle applies. The Peter Principle is that people get promoted to their level of incompetence. As a guy who's spent a lot of time trying to build tools to try to make developers' lives easier, if you make your life easier there are those that say: Oh, developer, you're just sitting around doing nothing, so I'll just give you more to-do items. And so if you look at the complexity of things people are building today, even compared to just five years ago it's just off the charts. So, with many of the systems people are building today, I have no idea how you would do them with other technologies.\nWhy did Sun create a fully new scripting language rather than leverage something that already existed such as Groovy? Why make developers have to learn yet another scripting language with JavaFX Script?\nWell, it's not like there's a shortage of scripting languages. There's got to be just about a billion of them out there. A number of them are fairly popular. The problem is a lot of the power from a scripting language comes from trying to fairly tightly target a particular application domain. And the majority of the scripting languages out there were really put together around generating Web pages. And that's a fundamentally different thing than building a rich graphical user interface. And JavaFX Script is all about that.\nSo just at like a basic level, most of these scripting languages are very transaction oriented. A request comes in; you generate a page and boom you're done. Whereas in graphical user interfaces there's a real progression of time. Things happen over time\u0085even really subtle things like a piece of text appearing. It doesn't just appear; it slowly unfolds. You slowly change its opacity, slowly change its size, slowly change whatever. There are a lot of things that are about animation behavior that are just different in the graphical user interface world.\nSo Chris [Oliver, the Sun engineer who conceived JavaFX Script] looked at this stuff in a fairly different way, and came up with something that works in that universe pretty well.\nCan Java become an important Linux language? Click here to read more.\nIf you tried to take JavaFX Script and apply it to generating Web pages, it would be awful. But that's not what it was made for.\nSo he [Chris Oliver] did it on his own time? Was it a project at Sun?\nHe started working on it when he was at SeeBeyond and then we bought SeeBeyond. And we thought that it was pretty cool so we kept him working on it after the acquisition. It got to the point where we wanted people to see it and play with it and kick the tires. Chris is a little intimidated by the whole \"getting his baby out there\" thing, but\nOn somewhat that same theme, what sort of language do you think will emerge for Web 2.0 and mashup programming?\nI don't know. The thing that I find disturbing about programming around Web 2.0 right now is it's become really confused and messed up. There are like 10,000 ways to do anything. And the cobbling together of this and that and the other thing is sort of like pouring paint together. If you pour a bunch of buckets of paint together you pretty much always get a really ugly brown. And it's difficult to come up with a coherent architecture approach when you do things that way.\nRead the full story on eWEEK.com: Sun's Gosling: Java Is Open Source and Doing Just Fine",

        "title": "BAZPAT: Why is Software Patentable in Australia?",
        "raw_content": "In this post I will explain that the boundary between patentable and unpatentable subject matter is clearly demarcated. On the way there, I will explain how we arrived at a patent system comfortable with software inventions.\nSection 18(1)(a) of the Australian Patents Act forms the basis of the patentability question in Australia. To quote: \"a patentable invention is an invention that, so far as claimed in any claim is a manner of manufacture within the meaning of section 6 of the Statute of Monopolies.\"\nSo, unlike Europe, we have no statute that specifically prohibits the granting of patents for software products. It follows that we do not have to perform various semantic gymnastics if we need to protect software, as is the case in Europe.\nThe 1623 Statute of Monopolies\nThe Statute of Monopolies was established in England in 1623 and is the original source of Anglo-American law. I am proud that we have maintained our connection to this Statute. In my opinion, section 18(1)(a) is an excellent provision since it allows our judiciary to continue to define and re-define the meaning of \"manner of manufacture\".\nThe history of patentable subject matter in Australia actually begins and is still deeply rooted in England. In fact it goes as far back as 1623. The reason for this lies in section 18(1)(a) of our Patents Act. According to that section an invention will be patentable provided it is a manner of manufacture within the meaning of section 6 of the Statute of Monopolies.\nBack in the late 1500's, Queen Elizabeth I granted monopolies to various courtiers and favourites for all manner of products which were already in existence in an attempt to raise revenue. Because of the uproar this caused, the Queen revoked the most objectionable and allowed the common law courts to determine the validity of the remaining monopolies. In Darcy v Allin, (1602), Darcy sued Allin for infringement of his sole rights of importing and making playing cards. The court held that the patent was bad and thus set a precedent which could be used in further matters.\nHowever, after Elizabeth, King James I continued to grant objectionable monopolies. As a result, the Statute of Monopolies was passed. The Statute banned all present and future monopolies except for inventions, which were preserved by section 6 of that Statute.\nSection 6 reads as follows: \"Provided also, and be it declared and enacted that any declaration beforementioned shall not extend to any Letters Patent, and grants of privilege for the term of 14 years or under hereafter to be made of the sole working or making of any manner of new manufactures (emphasis added) within this realm to the true and first inventor and inventors of such manufactures which others at the time of making such Letters Patent and grants shall not use so as also they be not contrary to the law nor mischievous to the state by raising prices of commodities at home or hurt of trade or generally inconvenient (emphasis added), the said 14 years to be accounted from the date of first Letters Patent or grant of such privileges hereof to be made, but that the same shall be of such force as they should if this Act had never been made, and of none other.\"\nThere are two phrases that have been the source of much judicial precedent. These are: \"manner of new manufactures\" and \"generally inconvenient\". For the purpose of this post, I will just consider \"manner of new manufactures\".\nManner of New Manufactures\nIn a series of cases, the courts in England attempted to define this phrase, leading eventually to the watershed case of National Research Development Corporation v Commissioner of Patents (1959) 102 CLR (The \"NRDC\" Case).\nIn that case, NRDC attempted to obtain a patent for a method of applying a herbicide to a field. The High Court pointed out that we should not be attempting to reduce the question of patentability to a question of verbal interpretation, but rather as a general title for a whole category of subject matter for which patents may be granted. The court proposed a broad approach towards the meaning of invention, while still attempting to provide some guidance. In the Court of the Commissioner, reference had been made to the English case of GEC's Application in 1942.\nIn that matter, Justice Morton put forward what have become known as Morton's Rules. In terms of those rules, a method or process is a manner of manufacture if it (a) results in the production of some vendible product; or (b) improves or restores to it's former condition a vendible product; or (c) has the effect of preserving from deterioration some vendible product to which it is applied.\nThis was too much of a limitation for the High Court in NRDC and it held that it would only accept those rules if \"product\" could be interpreted as covering any artificially created state of affairs, which was \"vendible\" if it had economic significance. Furthermore, the method or process must have application in the industrial as opposed to the fine arts. That said, the High Court compared a field full of weeds with a weed-free field and concluded that there was indeed an artificially created state of affairs evident in the weed-free field. The weed free field was clearly of economic significance and thus it concluded that NRDC indeed had a patentable invention.\nIt follows that we can distill three rules for patentability from the NRDC case. In order to qualify as patentable subject matter, a method or process must:\n(a) Result in an artificially created state of affairs, and\n(b) Be of economic significance, and\n(c) Be applied to the industrial arts as opposed to the fine art.\nApplying NRDC to Software\nIn the 1991 case of IBM v Commissioner of Patents, the Delegate of the Commissioner of Patents rejected an application by IBM for \"A Method and Apparatus for Producing a Curved Image\". The method in question was objected to by the Delegate as not being a \"manner of manufacture\". The Delegate stated that the claim was bad since it defined a mathematical algorithm. A mathematical algorithm is not patentable since it is a method of solving a mathematical problem and so does not result in \"an artificially created state of affairs\".\nThe relevant claim included a number of computing steps and a displaying step. The claim itself did not disclose any apparatus or physical mechanism for computing and displaying the curve. Thus, citing a number of US cases, the Delegate rejected the claim. The court, however, correctly construed the claim in the light of the specification and held that there was clearly a computer involved in the generation of the curve. Furthermore, the court held that there was no difference conceptually between the use of the compounds involved in the NRDC case and the use of the computer to generate the curve. Just as those compounds were previously known, so here, it was not suggested there is anything new about the mathematics of the invention. What was new was the application of the selected mathematical methods to computers, and, in particular, to the production of the desired curve by computer. The production of an improved curve image was held to be a commercially useful effect in computer graphics. Thus, the method claim described an \"artificially created state of affairs\" that was of \"economic significance\".\nThe Australian Patent Examiners Manual\nThe Patent Examiner's manual has endorsed NRDC and IBM, by stating that the following will almost always be patentable:\n1. Source code for patentable computer software.\n2. Executable code for patentable computer software, which is in a machine readable form.\n3. A computer, when programmed to achieve any result which has utility in the field of economic endeavour.\nProper Claiming\nIn view of NRDC, IBM and the Examiner's manual, when putting together a set of claims for software it is advisable to have independent claims including\n1. A method claim covering the steps carried out by the software product\n2. A claim directed to a computer configured or programmed to carry out the steps.\n3. A claim directed to the software product per se.\nIt is clear that there is no reason to treat software any differently from any other field of technology when it comes to patents. In my opinion, much of the contention has been driven by a feeling that patents are somehow not suited to software. Furthermore, I think that the patent examination process is not particularly suited to software at the moment, leading to patents being granted for subject matter that is often neither novel nor inventive.\nHowever, before we throw out the baby with the bathwater, there are things that we can do to address this issue and to deal with software patents which could unreasonably hinder development. I will deal with that in a further post.\nLabels: Software Patents, Subject Matter",

        "raw_content": "Graeme Drendel is a Melbourne based painter and printmaker whose skilfully executed works appear to be driven by narratives, but it is not necessarily clear what these may be. The subjects in his works, drawn from personal observations, appear as isolated or ensemble players, often in strange groups and in wide open spaces. In this exhibition, Graeme has been alternating between small works on paper and the more familiar relatively larger canvases. This process has led him towards a concentration on the isolated figure in open space. As Graeme explains, \u201c\u2026 the existential focus on the isolated figure in a seemingly unlimited space devoid of any concrete point of reference seems to have insinuated itself on the characters that inhabit these paintings.\u201d The landscape of Graeme\u2019s childhood, the Mallee region in Victoria, often forms the backdrop to these unfolding narratives. Drama-laced vistas display an ambiguous relationship between the ground and sky, with dark tonal variations suggesting the shadowy onset of dusk or the lull before a storm. Professor Sasha Grishin has said of Graeme\u2019s works \u201c\u2026I have come to think of his pictorial vignettes as metaphors for some greater reality. There is something awkward and absurd in our situation as human beings and something which is not immediately intelligible or easily verbalised. These small enigmatic parables may refer to this broader reality\u201d. Graeme\u2019s work continues to confound and delight but ultimately it is always left to the viewer to determine what they will take from each work.\n1. $2,750 Simple things \u2013 red staple gun \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n2. $2,750 Gym junkie \u2013 oil on paper, 31 x 31cm\n3. $2,750 Simple things \u2013 brown RM\u2019s \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n4. $2,750 Simple things \u2013 writer \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n5. $2,750 Young cowgirl \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n6. $9,000 Headstand \u2013 oil on canvas, 92 x 71cm\n7. $9,000 Headstand No. 2 \u2013 oil on canvas, 92 x 71cm\n8. $17,500 Camp \u2013 oil on canvas, 114 x 130cm\n9. $16,500 The student prince \u2013 oil on canvas, 122 x 91cm\n10. $16,500 The Balloonist \u2013 oil on canvas, 122 x 91cm\n11. $16,500 Sister \u2013 oil on canvas, 122 x 91cm\n12. $17,500 Water games \u2013 oil on canvas, 113 x 130cm\n13. $16,500 Breakfast with Alan Ladd \u2013 oil on canvas, 122 x 91cm\n14. $2,750 Santa in space \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n15. $9,000 The student prince No.2 \u2013 oil on canvas, 92 x 71cm\n16. $2,750 Enclosure \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n17. $2,750 Simple things \u2013 the case \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n18. $2,750 The green broom \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n19. $2,750 Walker \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n20. $2,750 Cowboy fan \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n21. $2,750 Simple things \u2013 studio radio \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n22. $2,750 Simple things \u2013 epidiascope \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n23. $2,750 Pub dog \u2013 oil on paper, 33 x 29cm\n24. $12,000 Pseudo Germania \u2013 oil on canvas, 102 x 91cm",

We'll be back at 8:30 am on Friday, January 7.\nMany clubs and cafes are closed on Christmas Eve and day, including the Artists\u2019 Quarter, Caf\u00e9 Maude, Honey, and the Red Stag. The Dakota is closed on Christmas Eve. If you plan to visit a favorite venue, call first.\nSaturday\u2013Monday, December 25\u201327: The Bad Plus. It wouldn\u2019t be Christmas in Minnesota without Holidazzle on the mall and The Bad Plus\u2014pianist Ethan Iverson, bassist Reid Anderson, and drummer Dave King\u2014at the Dakota. The trio first appeared at the old Dakota in Bandana Square as \u201cThe Bad Plus featuring Dave King\u201d in 2000. That was before These Are the Vistas (released on Columbia in 2003) earned raves and caused a ruckus (\u201cThe Bad Plus is saving jazz!\u201d \u201cThe Bad Plus is killing jazz!\u201d \u201cThe Bad Plus is the new direction of jazz!\u201d \u201cThe Bad Plus isn\u2019t jazz at all!\u201d yadda yadda). Since then, they have released several more albums, left Columbia, started their own label, and continued to do their own thing, which may not be as shocking as it once seemed but remains as intriguing and musically rewarding as ever. Their latest album, Never Stop (2010), is all originals, no covers, but if we don\u2019t hear their signature takes on \u201cSmells Like Teen Spirit\u201d or \u201cEverybody Wants to Rule the World\u201d or \u201cIron Man,\u201d I will be just a hair disappointed. Three nights, two sets each, 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., Dakota ($40). Tickets online or call 612-332-JAZZ (5299).\nConnie Evingson by Tray Hirez\nSunday, December 26: Connie Evingson\u2019s Holiday Songbook. Hear the songs of the season and learn the stories behind their creation. (For example, Mel Torme and Bob Wells wrote \u201cThe Christmas Song in 45 minutes on a blistering hot day in Los Angeles. I did not know that.) One of the Twin Cities\u2019 favorite and most consistently satisfying singers, Evingson has done a series of performances this year in the intimate, inviting Jungle Theater. Her program on Sunday will include popular and lesser-known holiday songs and selections from her award-winning CD, The Secret of Christmas. One day, two performances, 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., Jungle Theater ($25). Tickets online or call 612-822-7063.\nMaud Hixson by Judd Sather\nMonday, December 27: Maud Hixson and Rick Carlson at the Loring Pasta Bar. The Loring Pasta Bar is hosting a new series on Mondays called \u201cMusique Mystique dans la Chambre Rouge\u201d\u2014Mystical Music in the Red Room, upstairs from the main Pasta Bar space. Each Monday they\u2019re featuring a different female vocalist from the Twin Cities, and we\u2019re fortunate to have so many. This week it\u2019s the always elegant Maud Hixson, joined by her husband, Rick Carlson, a pianist much in demand by singers for knowing precisely how to be a perfect accompanist. 7 p.m., Loring Pasta Bar, Dinkytown, no cover.\nFaye Washington\nWednesday, December 29: Capri Big Band Holiday Concert. Snowed out on December 11, this worthy event was rescheduled.

It\u2019s One of the Most Unrecognized Health-Boosting Plants\u20262016-03-14T14:39:30+00:00 HEALTHY LIVING\nPurslane, also known as Portulaca oleracea, is considered a common weed to many that may even be growing in your garden right now, without your explicit invitation.\nIt started its cultivation in India and Persia, and spread to the rest of the world. Some cultures pluck it out and throw it away with leaf clippings and other weeds, while others cultivate it specifically to eat as food.\nPurslane is an aesthetically attractive weed with fleshy leaves and often yellow flowers, but its health benefits are even more desirable.\nPower-Packed Purslane\nCommon in our yards but little known in the North American kitchen, purslane is both delicious and exceptionally nutritious. Common purslane (Portulaca oleracea) \u2014 also known as duckweed, fatweed, pursley, pussley, verdolagas and wild portulaca \u2014 is the most frequently reported \u201cweed\u201d species in the world. It can grow anywhere that has at least a two-month growing season.\nUntil recently, most research on purslane has focused on its eradication. A frequently overlooked approach to controlling this weed is to eat it! Purslane is so surprisingly tasty, North Carolina market gardener Patryk Battle says, \u201cI have rarely had anybody not buy purslane after they\u2019ve tried it.\u201d\nPurslane is somewhat crunchy and has a slight lemony taste. Some people liken it to watercress or spinach, and it can substitute for spinach in many recipes. Young, raw leaves and stems are tender and are good in salads and sandwiches. They can also be lightly steamed or stir-fried. Purslane\u2019s high level of pectin (known to lower cholesterol) thickens soups and stews.\nBattle also uses purslane in pesto. He throws basil and purslane (upper stems and all) into a blender or food processor, adds a small amount of olive oil, garlic, pine nuts and enough hot water to get a good consistency. Because it\u2019s so juicy, purslane helps create a low-fat pesto without too much oil.\nStrong Anti-Oxidant\nFurthermore, purslane is full of two different types of betalain alkaloid pigments \u2013 a reddish beta-cyanis and a yellow beta-xanthins, which are equally potent antioxidants and anti-mutagens. Also in purslane are vitamins C, and B-complex including riboflavin, pyridoxine, and niacin, as well as carotenoids, and trace minerals like iron, magnesium, and calcium.\nWith all these nutritional benefits, and the large amounts of money we spend on supplements to better our health, it seems purslane should be elevated from weed status to health-boosting, everyday food. Purslane packs a powerful nutritional punch, for certain.\nMore Health benefits of Purslane\nThis wonderful green leafy vegetable is very low in calories (just 16 kcal/100g) and fats; nonetheless, it is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals.\nFresh leaves contain surprisingly more omega-3 fatty acids (a-linolenic acid) than any other leafy vegetable plant. 100 grams of fresh purslane leaves provide about 350 mg of alpha-linolenic acid. Research studies show that consumption of foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and help prevent the development of ADHD, autism, and other developmental differences in children.\nIt is an excellent source of Vitamin A, (1320 IU/100 g, provides 44% of RDA) one of the highest among green leafy vegetables. Vitamin A is a known powerful natural antioxidant and an essential vitamin for vision. it is also required to maintain healthy mucusa and skin. Consumption of natural vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin A is known to help to protect from lung and oral cavity cancers.\nPurslane is also a rich source of vitamin C, and some B-complex vitamins like riboflavin, niacin, pyridoxine and carotenoids, as well as dietary minerals, such as iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium, and manganese.\nsource: EatLokalGrown\nVIDEO: Foraging and Preparing Purslane\nPower-Packed Purslane, Purslane, stop, Strong Anti-Oxidant\n\u00ab How to Remove Papillomavirus at Home\nWhy Homemade Sauerkraut Could be Your Secret Weapon Against FAT, Cancer and Heart Disease \u00bb",

There are so many great ways that you can work out that don\u2019t involve a gym that allows you to stay fit and healthy and enjoy the great outdoors.\nThis is a really fun activity and something that can be done with friends too. If you\u2019ve never done it before, you might find it a little challenging at first but before long you\u2019ll be a pro. Its great for your balance meaning you are using your legs and core and then your upper body gets a workout as you paddle along \u2013 perfect!\nThis may seem a little old school but it is certainly one that can get the heart pumping. Skipping is so versatile and is something that you can certainly build on incorporating tricks and your friends to make it a really fun activity.\nBasketball, soccer, tennis etc.\nThese games are all great because anyone can play and it is a great opportunity to engage with your friends and have fun. Organise a lunch time or after work game and you and all your friends will be fit before you know it. A great alternative to the gym!\nWhilst you will need to find a bike, this is certainly a workout that can take you to some pretty cool places. You can explore your city or venture out of town to explore what the world has to offer all while getting in some valuable exercise. The changing terrain ensures that your legs will get a great workout and before you know it you will have great toned legs.\nFind your local park and take in the beautiful greenery as you run through it. This is also another work out that you can get your friends involved in and can be done at any time. It is a great way of getting out of the office during the week and enjoying the natural scenery that lives within your city. Mix it up a little by going to different locations and changing your route to keep it interesting and find a new challenge every couple of weeks to keep pushing yourself.",

        "raw_content": "by admin-bbc | Apr 27, 2018 | Meetings |\nThe importance of body language in getting a message across was the subject at Bingham Business Club\u2019s April meeting.\nChris Hallam of CH Coaching Solutions has in the past worked with Sir Alex Ferguson\u2019s Manchester United and the world-cup- winning England Rugby squad. He also spent 30 years with the Lloyds Banking Group. He now works for Nottingham-based Boots, part of the Wallgreen Boots Alliance, the first global pharmacy-led health and wellbeing enterprise.\nChris said that body language played a far greater part in getting a message across than what was actually being said. He said research shows that 55% of communication is effected through non-verbal skills, 38% through how the words are said, and only 7% through the words themselves. He said that, when it came to important presentations or speeches, many people spent far too much time focusing on writing the words and not enough time on how to deliver them effectively.\nHe also said the brain responded better to simple messages, recognising pictures or gestures more easily than complex written or spoken messages, hence the growth in the use of emoticons in messages.\nChris highlighted areas of non-verbal communication where cultural or geographical elements could confuse the message. For example, the concept of personal space or the use of eye contact has different meanings in different places. He also spoke about the role played by posture, gesture, tone of voice, and physical response.\nWhile people could learn how to improve their non-verbal skills, some elements could not be faked, such as shaking when under stress or blinking rapidly when lying.\nHe said one of the best ways to learn the skill was by watching others and trying to work out the dynamic between them and any situation they might be trying to resolve.",

        "title": "Francis Beaumont Biography",
        "raw_content": "Francis Beaumont Biography\nFrancis Beaumont, known by his contemporaries as Frank Beaumont, (1584 \u2013 1616) was an English dramatist most famous for his collaborations with John Fletcher.\nBeaumont was the son of Sir Francis Beaumont of Grace-Dieu, a justice of the common pleas. He was educated at Broadgates Hall (now Pembroke College) in Oxford at the age of 13. Following the death of his father, he left university without a degree and followed in his father's footsteps by entering the Inner Temple.\nAccounts suggest that however that Beaumont did not work for long as a lawyer. He became a student of poet Ben Jonson and decided that was where his passions lay. His first work, Salmacis and Hermaphroditus, appeared in 1602. The 1911 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica describes the work as \"not on the whole discreditable to a lad of eighteen, fresh from the popular love-poems of Marlowe and Shakespeare, which it naturally exceeds in long-winded and fantastic diffusion of episodes and conceits\". In 1607, Beaumont wrote the preface to a work of Jonson's.\nBeaumont's collaboration with Fletcher probably began as early as 1605, but the pair truly became famous in 1608 with the writing and production of Philaster. Their collaboration continued 1612. Beaumont married in the following year, and died in 1616 and is buried in Westminster Abbey. Although today Beaumont is remembered as a dramatist, during his lifetime he was celebrated as a poet.\nNote the true extent to which each play was written by Fletcher and by Beaumont is unknown (compare also the shared song-writing of John Lennon and Paul McCartney), though the following categorizations are generally agreed upon.\nJoint works with John Fletcher\nThe Scornful Lady (acted circa 1609, printed 1616)\nPhilaster or Love Lies a-Bleeding (c.1609, 1620)\nThe Maid's Tragedy (c. 1609, 1619),\nA King and No King (December 26, 1611, 1619),\nThe Knight of the Burning Pestle (c. 1610, 1613),\nCupid's Revenge (January 1612, 1615)\nThe Coxcomb (c. 1610, 1647)\nThe Masque of the Inner Temple and Grays Inn (26th of February 1612)\nOf Four Plays, or Moral Representations, in One (1608, 1647)\nThe Induction, with The Triumph of Honor\nFrancis Beaumont Resources\nThis article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License.

        "raw_content": "Protein Sequencing Helps Resolve Evolutionary Mystery of What Darwin Called the \u201cStrangest Animals Ever Discovered\u201d\nScientists have resolved pieces of a nearly 200-year-old evolutionary puzzle surrounding the group of mammals that Charles Darwin called the \"strangest animals ever discovered.\" New research, led by the American Museum of Natural History, the Natural History Museum in London, and the University of York, shows that South America's so-called \"native ungulates\"--the last of which disappeared only 10,000 years ago--are actually related to mammals like horses rather than to elephants and other species with ancient evolutionary ties to Africa as some taxonomists have long maintained. Published online on March 18, 2015 in Nature, the findings are based on fossil protein sequences, which allow researchers to peek back in time up to 10 times farther than they can with DNA. \"Fitting South American ungulates to the mammalian family tree has always been a major challenge for paleontologists, because anatomically they were these weird mosaics, exhibiting features found in a huge variety of quite unrelated species living all over the place,\" said Dr. Ross MacPhee, one of the paper's authors and a curator in the American Museum of Natural History's Department of Mammalogy. \"This is what puzzled Darwin and his collaborator Richard Owen so much in the early 19th century. With all of these conflicting signals, they couldn't say whether these ungulates were related to giant rodents, or elephants, or camels--or what have you.\" Dr. Ian Barnes, research leader at the Natural History Museum in London and another of the paper's authors, explained, \"Although the bones of these animals had been studied for over 180 years, no clear picture of their origins had been reached.\nRobot Model for Infant Learning Shows Bodily Posture May Affect Memory and Learning\nAn Indiana University (IU) cognitive scientist and collaborators have found that posture is critical in the early stages of acquiring new knowledge. The study, conducted by Dr. Linda Smith, a professor in the IU Bloomington College of Arts and Sciences' Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, in collaboration with Dr. Anthony Morse, a roboticist from England, and Dr. Viridian Benitez, a developmental psychologist from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and others, offers a new approach to studying the way \"objects of cognition,\" such as words or memories of physical objects, are tied to the position of the body. \"This study shows that the body plays a role in early object name learning, and how toddlers use the body's position in space to connect ideas,\" Dr. Smith said. \"The creation of a robot model for infant learning has far-reaching implications for how the brains of young people work.\" The research article, titled \"Posture Affects How Robots and Infants Map Words to Objects,\" was published on March 18, 2015 in PLOS ONE, an open-access, peer-reviewed online journal. Using both robots and infants, researchers examined the role that bodily position played in the brain's ability to \"map\" names to objects. They found that consistency of the body's posture and spatial relationship to an object as an object's name was shown and spoken aloud were critical to successfully connecting the name to the object. The new insights stem from the field of epigenetic robotics, in which researchers are working to create robots that learn and develop like children, through interaction with their environment. Dr. Morse applied Dr. Smith's earlier research to creating a learning robot in which cognitive processes emerge from the physical constraints and capacities of its body.\nScientists Study Gut Bacteria Communication Via Quorum-Sensing Signal AI-2\nA research team led by Dr. Karina Xavier at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ci\u00eancia (IGC, Portugal) has shown that bacteria living in the intestine both talk and listen to each other. Using small molecules in place of words, these microbial conversations changed the numbers of certain species of bacteria in the gut and started to repair the huge damage caused by lasting antibiotic treatment. These findings were published online on March 18, 2015 in an open-access article in Cell Reports. The same article will be published in the next print issue of Cell Reports and, because of its significance, will be highlighted on the journal's cover. The articles highlights the potential of using bacteria\u2019s own language to communicate with, control, and exploit the multitude of microbes that live inside of the human gut. The article is titled \u201cManipulation of the Quorum-Sensing Signal AI-2 Affects the Antibiotic-Treated Gut Microbiota.\u201d Bacteria were long seen as predominantly harmful organisms, responsible for many illnesses across the world. This picture has been changing over the last ten years. Scientists are now reporting many beneficial characteristics of certain bacterial species, particularly those living inside human bodies, in particular in the intestine. These microbes can be seen as tiny lodgers in the gut, helping the body to get the most out of ingested food and protecting from opportunistic invaders that cause disease. \"When we lose some of these lodgers: by taking antibiotics or changing our diet, for example, the resulting imbalance in the community of bacteria can leave us at risk of infection, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, or cancer,\" explains Dr. Xavier. Therefore, scientists like herself are keen to understand how these bacteria interact, and then use this knowledge to benefit human health.\nPossible Key to Alleviating Chronic Pain & Itch Discovered; Targeted Therapy Not Yet Possible; Results Support 50-Year-Old \u201cGate Control Theory\u201d of Pain\nSensing pain is extremely unpleasant and sometimes hard to bear, and pain can even become chronic. The perception of pain varies significantly depending on the context in which it is experienced. 50 years ago, neurobiologist Dr. Patrick Wall and psychologist Dr. Ronald Melzack formulated the so-called \"Gate Control Theory\" of pain. The two researchers proposed that inhibitory nerve cells in the spinal cord determine whether a pain impulse coming from the periphery, such as the foot, is relayed to the brain or not. A team headed by Dr. Hanns Ulrich Zeilhofer from the Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology at the University of Zurich (UZH) has now discovered which inhibitory neurons in the spinal cord are responsible for this control function: As the study published online on March 18, 2015 in an open-access article in Neuron shows, the control cells are located in the spinal dorsal horn and use the amino acid glycine as an inhibitory messenger. The Neuron article is titled \u201cTargeted Ablation, Silencing, and Activation Establish Glycinergic Dorsal Horn Neurons As Key Components of a Spinal Gate for Pain and Itch.\u201d With the aid of genetically modified viruses, the research group from UZH managed to specifically interfere with the function of these neurons in mice. They discovered that disabling the glycine-releasing neurons leads to an increased sensitivity to pain and signs of spontaneous pain. Moreover, Dr. Zeilhofer's team developed viruses that enable these specific pain-control cells to be activated pharmacologically. Mice treated with these viruses were less sensitive to painful stimuli than their untreated counterparts. Activating these nerve cells also alleviated chronic pain. And the surprising additional result: \"Evidently, the neurons don't just control pain, but also various forms of itch,\" explains Dr. Zeilhofer.\nProlonged Breastfeeding Associated with Increased Intelligence, Longer Schooling, and Higher Earnings in Adults, 30-Year Study Finds; Role for DHAs Suggested\nLonger duration of breastfeeding is linked with increased intelligence in adulthood, longer schooling, and higher adult earnings, according to results of a study following a group of almost 3500 newborns for 30 years and published in an open-access article in the April 2015 issue The Lancet Global Health. [Note that there is an audio description of this research and the link to this audio is provided in the article, for which a link is provided below. There is also a commentary on the article, which you can also find in the article at the link below. Note, in particular, that the commentary suggests an alternative explanation for the results obtained. ] \"The effect of breastfeeding on brain development and child intelligence is well established, but whether these effects persist into adulthood is less clear,\"* explains lead author Dr. Bernardo Lessa Horta from the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil. \"Our study provides the first evidence that prolonged breastfeeding not only increases intelligence until at least the age of 30 years but also has an impact both at an individual and societal level by improving educational attainment and earning ability. What is unique about this study is the fact that, in the population we studied, breastfeeding was not more common among highly educated, high-income women, but was evenly distributed by social class. Previous studies from developed countries have been criticized for failing to disentangle the effect of breastfeeding from that of socioeconomic advantage, but our work addresses this issue for the first time.\" Dr. Horta and colleagues analyzed data from a prospective study of nearly 6,000 infants born in Pelotas, Brazil in 1982. Information on breastfeeding was collected in early childhood.\nTargeted Drug (BV) Doubles Progression-Free Survival in Difficult-to-Treat Cases of Hodgkin Lymphoma\nA phase 3 trial of brentuximab vedotin (BV), the first new drug for Hodgkin lymphoma in over 30 years, shows that adults with hard-to-treat Hodgkin lymphoma who are given BV immediately after stem cell transplant survived without the disease progressing for almost twice as long as those given placebo (43 months versus 24 months). The findings, published online on March 18, 2015 in The Lancet, are potentially practice-changing for this young cancer population that has exhausted other treatment options and for which prognosis is poor. \"No medication available today has had such dramatic results in patients with hard-to-treat Hodgkin lymphoma,\" says lead author Dr. Craig Moskowitz, a Professor of Medicine at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, USA. Hodgkin lymphoma is the most common blood cancer in young adults aged between 15 and 35 years. Most patients are cured with chemotherapy or radiotherapy. However, for patients who relapse, or do not respond to initial therapy, the treatment of choice is usually a combination of high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT)--a procedure that uses healthy stem cells from the patient to replace those lost to disease or chemotherapy. While about 50% of patients who undergo this procedure are cured, for the other half, treatment is only palliative.\nRare African MRI Instrument Reveals Massive Brain Swelling As Cause of Death in Children with Cerebral Malaria; Finding May Lead to Effective Treatments\nMalaria kills one child every minute. While medical researchers have successfully developed effective drugs to kill the malaria parasite, efforts to treat the effects of the disease have not been as successful. But that soon may change. In a groundbreaking study published in the March 19, 2015 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, Michigan State University's (MSU\u2019s) Dr. Terrie Taylor (photo) and her team discovered what causes death in children with cerebral malaria, the deadliest form of the disease. \"We discovered that some children with cerebral malaria develop massively swollen brains and those are the children who die,\" Dr. Taylor said. Dr. Taylor and her research team found that the brain becomes so swollen it is forced out through the bottom of the skull and compresses the brain stem. This pressure causes the children to stop breathing and die. \"Because we know now that the brain swelling is what causes death, we can work to find new treatments,\" Dr. Taylor said. \"The next step is to identify what's causing the swelling and then develop treatments targeting those causes. It's also possible that using ventilators to keep the children breathing until the swelling subsides might save lives, but ventilators are few and far between in Africa at the moment.\" While increased efforts targeting malaria elimination and eradication have had some effect on malaria infection and illness, death rates from malaria are still too high, Dr. Taylor said. \"It's gut-wrenching when children die, but what keeps us going is that we are making progress against this Voldemort [an arch villain in the Harry Potter series] of parasites,\" Dr. Taylor said. \"It's been an elusive quarry, but I think we have it cornered.\" In 2008, GE Healthcare provided a $1-million MRI to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Blantyre, Malawi, where Dr.\nInsect Wings May Serve Gyroscopic Function\nGyroscopes measure rotation in everyday technologies, from unmanned aerial vehicles to cell phone screen stabilizers. Though many animals can move with more precision and accuracy than our best-engineered aircraft and technologies, gyroscopes are rarely found in nature. Scientists know of just one group of insects, the group including flies, that has something that behaves like a gyroscope -- sensors called halteres, clublike structures that evolved from wings. Halteres provide information about the rotation of the body during flight, which helps flies perform aerial acrobatics and maintain stability and direction. But how do other insects without these sensors regulate flight dynamics, biologists have wondered? University of Washington (UW) research suggests that insects' wings may also serve a gyroscopic function -- a discovery that sheds new insight on natural flight and could help with developing new sensory systems in engineering. Published online on January 28, 2015 in an open-access article in Interface, the research was supported by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. It was a key part of the successful proposal for an Air Force Center of Excellence on Nature-Inspired Flight Technologies and Ideas, a new UW center focused on understanding how elements in nature can inform the development of remotely controlled small aircraft. \"I was surprised at the results,\" said Brad Dickerson, a graduate student in biology and co-author of the study. \"This idea of wings being gyroscopes has existed for a long time, but this paper is the first to really address how that would be possible.\" Dickerson and another UW graduate student, Annika Eberle, conducted the research seeking to determine whether insects could use the bending of their wings to sense rotations of their bodies during flight.\nInterplay of Two Insulin Receptors Underlies Crucial Switch Between Short Wings and Long Wings in Leaf Hopper Pests\nEach year, rice in Asia faces a big threat from a sesame-seed-sized insect called the brown plant hopper. Now, a study reveals the molecular switch that enables some plant hoppers to develop short wings and others long -- a major factor in their ability to invade new rice fields. The findings were published online on March 18, 2015 in Nature. Lodged in the stalks of rice plants, plant hoppers use their sucking mouthparts to siphon sap. Eventually the plants turn yellow and dry up, a condition called \"hopper burn.\" Each year, plant hopper outbreaks destroy hundreds of thousands of acres of rice, the staple crop for roughly half the world's population. The insects have a developmental strategy that makes them particularly effective pests. When conditions in a rice field are good, young plant hoppers develop into adults with stubby wings that barely reach their middles. These short-winged adults cannot fly, but they are prolific breeders. A single short-winged female can lay more than 700 eggs in her lifetime. \"The short-winged ones have great big fat abdomens. They're basically designed to stay put and reproduce,\" said biologist Dr. Fred Nijhout of Duke University, who co-authored the study with colleagues at Zhejiang University in China. But in the fall, as days get shorter and temperatures begin to drop -- signs that the rice plants they're munching on will soon disappear -- more plant hopper nymphs develop into slender adults with long wings. These long-winged plant hoppers lay fewer eggs, but are built for travel, eventually flying away to invade new rice fields. Until now, scientists did not know exactly how the shorter days and cooler temperatures triggered the shift between short and long wings, or which hormones were involved.\nPossibly Helpful Therapeutic for Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy; Drug Is Targeted to Inhibit TWEAK Pathway\nA doctor who was one of the discoverers of the gene responsible for myotonic muscular dystrophy has now identified a therapeutic that could modify progression of muscle damage and muscle dysfunction associated with the disease - issues that cause patients significant disability and deterioration in quality of life. The potential treatment is an experimental drug currently being evaluated for treating other conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis. In lab tests, mice with myotonic dystrophy that were given the treatment had better muscle function in tests such as running on a treadmill and had improved grip strength. In addition, their muscles became healthier and, notably, many even lived longer. While more testing needs to be done, Mani S. Mahadevan, M.D., of the University of Virginia (UVA) School of Medicine, is hopeful about the drug's potential in humans as well. \"The nice thing about this therapy is that we know that it's already been shown to be safe, because clinical trials have already been done with it for other conditions. That's a big, big hurdle that's been overcome,\" Dr. Mahadevan said. \"With a lot of drugs, the problem is that once you do these proof-of-concept studies, the drugs need to be developed a lot further, refined, and tested for safety and efficacy. But a lot of that work has been done, so therefore we can leapfrog the development of this therapy so that it can be moved into clinical trials sooner.\" Dr. Mahadevan, of UVA's Department of Pathology, has been conducting pioneering research into the causes of myotonic dystrophy, the most common form of muscular dystrophy, for more than two decades. His work revealed that the condition is caused by an expanding piece of DNA - a mutation that grows worse with each generation.",

The exhibition puts the accent on the 1980s and 1990s, but also presents a number of recent installations. The series of paintings entitled X?

        "raw_content": "2019 A Voice in the NELA Wilderness Christopher Nyerges Columnists Editions February January\nA Voice in the NELA Wilderness\nWith the recent rains, I have gone in search of mushrooms in wild and not-so-wild spots in NELA and the Arroyo Seco.\nMy study of mycology began in the \u201970\u2019s. I wanted to try every wild mushroom I could find until I learned the meaning of the phrase \u201cthis mushroom is known to disagree with some people\u201d which really means, \u201cdo not eat this one.\u201d\nSo, here is my word of caution: Do not experiment with wild mushrooms. Learn about them before you gather and eat them. If the first question you have to ask when you see a mushroom is whether it is edible or not, leave it alone.\nHere are the mushrooms I have found during my recent walks in the Arroyo Seco. Some are edible and some are not. The edible ones are delicious saut\u00e9ed in butter.\nChlorophyllum rhacodes (sometimes called the parasol mushroom). EDIBLE. This one appears as a white gilled mushroom, with brown patches on the cap, a ring on the stem, a bulbous base and a hollow stem. It stains orange when cut or bruised. It\u2019s an excellent, mild-tasting mushroom.\nAgaricus campestris and related species are the wild variety of the common store-bought mushroom. EDIBLE. This one has pink gills which turn a chocolate color as the spores mature, a ring on the stout stem and a stem that breaks freely from the cap.\nClitocybe nuda (also called the blewit mushroom). EDIBLE. This one has an unmistakable violet color and a stout stem with free gills. Very young ones taste the best.\nBoletus chrysenteron has a light brown cap and a yellowish, somewhat swollen stalk. There are no gills, but pores. There are many varieties, and most are safe, but not all, so make sure you know what you are eating. Sliced and saut\u00e9ed, it has the flavor and texture of eggplant.\nCoprinopsis atramentaria, also called Inky Caps, are abundant in wet conditions. NOT EDIBLE, especially if consumed with alcohol. But they are interesting because as they age, they decompose into a black ink.\nLittle Brown Mushrooms, (or LBMs), a generic name for many mushrooms that look so similar they are hard to identify. Most, but not all, are edible.\nChristopher Nyerges, the author of \u201cGuide to Wild Food\u201d and other books, also hosts a weekly podcast at Preparedness Radio Network. He can be reached at School of Self-reliance, Box 41834, Eagle Rock, CA 90041 or www.ChristopherNyerges.com.\nChristopher Nyerges is the manager of the Old L.A. Farmers Market in Highland Park.\nClasses by the School of Self-Reliance\nSURVIVAL SKILLS INTENSIVE, $65\nHere\u2019s a chance to practice all the basic skills as we explore the Upper Arroyo. You will learn about uses of plants for food and medicine, primitive fire-making, cooking, water purification, shelter, making cordage, and more. A great day to get into the mountains with like-minded people. From Altadena, drive to the extreme west end of Altadena Drive (a few blocks west of Lincoln Ave.), and park. Location 1. Bring a bowl, knife, and water. Dress comfortably.\nSaturday, February 9, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.\nWEEKEND WARRIOR WORKSHOP SERIES, #1 PRIMITIVE SURVIVAL SKILLS\npart of our certificate and certification program. Call for details\nSunday, February 10, 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., $20.\nANIMAL TRACKING II\nThis class will cover the basics of tracking to include print identification, gaits and their corresponding patterns, and animal signs such as scat, trails, homes, and other evidence. Then we\u2019ll take a short walk to practice our newly learned skills. Of course, we\u2019ll look at plants and their uses (to both people and animals). This is an information-packed class with hands-on experience. Led by tracker Rob Remedi. Location: You will be told where to meet when you RSVP.\nSaturday, February 23, 10 a.m.\nWEEKEND ETHNO-BOTANY SERIES, #1 WILD FOOD AND USEFUL PLANTS\npart of our certificate and certification program. This is a 4-part series which will occur on the third Saturday of each month, including February 23, March 23, April 27, and May 25, and continuing on an on-going basis. Session one begins with a plant walkabout, getting to know some of the common local plants. We\u2019ll then cover some basic botany, so you have a sense of context of the types of plant groups, as well as their relationships. You will be instructed in the use of the plant press, and how to make field records for your own use. Bring a notebook.\nPricing: $65 per class; if you pay in advance for all 4 classes, you pay $195, meaning, you get the 4th class FREE. Location 2, Hahamongna Watershed Park. Books and products will be available for sale.\nFor updates and registration, go to http://www.SchoolofSelf-Reliance.com, or call 626 791-3217.

        "raw_content": "How I Became An Expert on Tanks\nWhy It Is Important to Make Installation for The Storage Water Tanks for Commercial and Industrial Use\nThe means of storing water for the commercial and industrial purpose is referred to as water storage. The means of saving water is through different containers that are of different, shapes, sizes and material of make. Therefore, when installing such tanks, a skilled personnel should be hired who has got all the experience to avoid leakages that can be caused by the faulty installer. Quality work will ensure the tank has got a long life in services to the appropriate people or rather the industry. As a result, the storage tanks have the following benefits to the people in the current life today.\nStorage tanks are used in the harvesting of the rainwater. It is simple to minimize chances of water shortage in various areas through harvesting of the rainwater. Harvested rainwater can also be used for farming and irrigation in the most farm.\nWater employed in industries and homes can be stored in tanks. It is easy and convenient to make use of tank water in the firms and homes as well. Water storage is a method that is quite active in customizing a significant number of workers in particular organization.\nThere is assure the safety of taking the purest water for human consumption. Having storage tanks will help in finding an appropriate container that can be used to hold water that is safe for human health. To keep the water in the concrete tank clean, regular treatment is conducted to avoid drinking water that is contaminated with germs which can lead to various diseases.\nAnother merits are that; the containers can be used to store water that can be used in case of fire occurrence. Since water is the bad conductor of heat, it is a real fire stopper thus tanks can be relied on there. It is right to keep one harmed with plenty of water to help eradicate any cause of fire alarm.\nThe stored water in different containers is used in processing companies that process food and also in horticulture farming. Since there is a lot to be done in horticulture, the significant amount of water is therefore required which should be harvested in bigger nag many tanks. There is big evidence in the industries that manufacture food staffs in the sense that water is an essential element and thus raising the need for more storage tanks in the particular area.\nWith storage containers, chances of drought can be taken care of accordingly. During such times, there are no chances of getting hard times in carrying out the distinct tasks that an individual ought to do. It is safe to have water storage containers at any given time.\nPrevious PostPrevious Why not learn more about Attorneys?\nNext PostNext Finding Similarities Between Attorneys and Life",

        "raw_content": "Puck PowWow\nDe-Occupy Hockey, A New 50/50 proposal\nBy VegasHawksFan, December 20, 2012 at 10:33 pm\nTo the NHL owners and players,\nIt is clear that we the fans are powerless to end this lockout. Collectively, we spend a lot of our hard earned money to support you and for most of us, it is baffling that you cannot seem to find a way to equitably split 3+ billion dollars in a way that rewards talent fairly and keeps all 30 teams competitive. Actually, it's kind of galling. Admittedly, we are enablers. We buy contemptuously overpriced food at games after we pay an arm and a leg just to sit down. We buy the merchandise, we buy the cable package and if our team wins the cup, we double down and buy that much more. We love the game and no matter what happens, we will return to watch the game and just live with the fact that we really have come to dislike most of you. You will live with that fact and get over it quickly once the checks start to hit your accounts again. While it is entertainment for us, for the majority of you, it is simply business. As in the real world, the least talented among you will be hit very hard by this lockout and possibly never work again doing what you love the most. Peripherally, thousands of people who work the concessions, take the tickets, guide people to seats, run the parking, clean the stadium and on and on will also pay the price and some will never recover enough to keep doing the work they were doing. No one forced them to do that work, regardless, they aren't doing it now and the only economics that are keeping them from doing their jobs are the economics of disparity. The strongest teams and the highest paid players don't remotely want parity and they damn well don't want a dime of what they feel is \"theirs\" to go to someone or some team they feel is beneath them. At the risk of getting overly political, we've seen this before and this attitude pretty much dominates everything today.\nIt would be nice if we could truly start a De-Occupy Hockey movement and stop feeding you so much money to fight over. Undoubtedly, you have already done this yourselves to some degree. But, the fact remains we will be back and you will jack up the prices of everything to make us pay for being pissed off about missing hockey. We don't need any of you to return to keep our love for the game and the game itself does not need any of you to survive. But if we want to continue to see the highest level of hockey played here in North America and if we want to see people get back to work supporting it, we have no choice really but to root for an equitable solution when what we'd really like to see is both of you lose. To get what we want, we have to continue enriching you with far more money then is reasonable for what you give in return and in the long run, enriching you is what we will continue to do. Still, if only for awhile, it would be nice to De-Fund hockey and put that energy and money to genuine good use by giving it to people whose lives can be improved by doing so. Additionally, it would also give us a way to let go of being annoyed by your complete indifference to anyone but yourselves. Your indifference is becoming our indifference and if recent events in the real world haven't sent a clear enough message about where indifference leads, then maybe it's time for us fans to get off our asses and send a message by being engaged in something that isn't dominated by the concept of winner, loser and profit above everything.\nTo fellow fans, we have a proposal for redirecting or reapplying a substantial portion of revenue that we would typically steer toward the NHL. By now, we all have likely heard some form of these suggestions, such as stay away for the first few games and let the players know we are annoyed. While this sounds good in principle, it benefits no one and only continues to add to the bad vibe this lockout has generated. We propose that instead of letting that seat go empty, why not find a charity that will take disabled children or even a schoolroom of kids from a poor neighborhood. You certainly don't need to walk far away from the United Center to find such a school. When it comes to money that will be spent, sit down and add up a realistic figure on what you spend each year on NHL related gear and find a charity to give that money to, heck, you can even donate it in the name of the NHL or in the name of a player you think is the biggest spoiled bitch in hockey. If you don't have season tickets and still go to 4-5 games a year, take the rest of this season off (if it starts) and commit those hours to a charity AFTER the holiday season is over. Additionally, support sub level NHL hockey wherever you can, be it AHL, ECHL, College or Juniors. If you have a local rink, why not give some money to a kids team to help buy gear? When you are done, come back and let us know where you spent your time or money and champion a cause you want people to know about. In short, there is plenty that we can do. Since it isn't realistic that we steer ALL money away, we recommend giving at least half of it away, call it a 50/50 proposal if you will. We can't change hockey, and we likely won't change the world in six months. But if we can absorb some indifference and use it to get us engaged in something useful, there is absolutely no downside.\nTags: 50/50, Lockout, NHL\nVegasHawksFan said December 20, 2012 at 12:00 am\n$125 dollars donated to Rolling Jubilee, $125 dollars spent on ECHL jersey. It's a little dicey to count ECHL games I have gone to as revenue redistribution, but I've certainly attended more games then I did last year when I had NHL to watch.\nHostile Hawk said December 22, 2012 at 12:00 am\nI would have gone to at least a couple of games by now, most likely purchased a beverage, and a pretzel.\nSo, I donated $50 to the WWF (World Wildlife Fund), and $50 to PAWS Chicago, a no kill animal shelter, along with making an appointment to give 3 hours of my time walking their dogs on a Saturday.\nI have an idea on what the NHL can do with the 3 billion. Give it back, to the cities, the people, local charities across the league, help build better roads, assistance to the needy and schools, etc.\nIt is truly time to usher in a new way of thinking in the country and in the world. We avoided the end of the world for cryin out loud. It is time to get perspective, care about how well the person next to us is doing, and distribute the benefits of society a little more evenly. Inequality breeds bad things, and America seems ready to wake up to that fact.\nI didn't care much about school when I was a teenager. Maybe it was the bad teachers, or the system, or maybe I was too interested in other things to have the time. I gave everything I had to hockey, and when I was 15-16 yrs old, thought I could make a living with it. So I paid little attention to my studies, and played hockey every day.\nToday, I am a teacher. My younger me would be shocked, and I would yell at my younger self for not paying more attention in school. I learned a great deal about hard work, leadership, and teamwork as a hockey player, and it kept me in great shape, but I needed more balance with my academics. As it would turn out, Art is my real gift, and if I had taken just 1 art class in high school, I might have connected more. In other words, I needed balance. The world needs balance, and integrity, and a whole lot more empathy.\nWe live in a world where a professional athlete makes more in 1 game, then the teacher does in an entire year of standing in front of our children and trying to help them become better people, to build a better world. That's not balanced, and it is messed up. How about we start moving in a more productive direction? Start caring that our schools are failing our society because of bad system practices, and budget restraints. Realize how pathetic it is that the NHL is standing where it is right now while real problems face our world.\nAnd, read this if you have a minute:\nhttp://business.time.com/2012/12/19/hockeys-wealth-redistribution-problem-whats-really-behind-the-nhl-lockout/\njack said December 24, 2012 at 12:00 am\nI haven't purchased a Kane 88 sweaters, and guess that I won't.\nSubscribe to Puck PowWow\nWowa, where to start.

        "raw_content": "Picky Eaters and Their Families\nWe may often be quick to judge a child or their parents when we see a picky eater. Picky eaters can be perceived as unadventurous or a product of poor parenting skills. However, parents of picky eaters have more to worry about than social judgement. Pediatricians say that children who develop picky eating at an early age can have growth and development problems.\nParents of picky eaters have real reason to worry about their children\u2019s proper intake of proteins, vitamins and minerals, and vegetables. After all, a child\u2019s appetite is a major indicator of his or her health. Picky eaters are also hard to pinpoint because they generally eat as much as other children do, and they can also be thin or overweight. This means that even though they are probably not eating properly, they are getting their caloric intake in ways that are not nutritionally ideal. Parents look to pediatricians to reassure them that their child is growing at a normal rate, which is usually the case. However, in rare instances, doctors will test for developmental disorders like autism, gastrointestinal disorders, or food allergies. These abnormalities are definitely not the norm, but even the original issue alone - pickiness - can be a cause of major stress for parents.\nHere are three tips that parents can do to alleviate picky eating habits:\nAccording to Dr. Natalie Muth, a pediatrician interviewed for the New York Times, it\u2019s important to expose children to new flavors even while their mother is pregnant and breastfeeding. It is ideal for children who are starting to eat solid foods (between 6 and 18 months) to have frequent exposure to many different foods at an early age.\nIt\u2019s ultimately up to the child to choose what to eat. Pediatricians recommend following a division of responsibility at the table: parents can provide diverse food choices and show that other family members, including other children, are trying different kinds of food.\nChildren who are learning about tastes may exhibit some sort of neophobia - fear of the new and unknown. They may be partial to eat \u201cwhite foods\u201d such as fried foods, breads, rice, and chips. Families who cater to children who are partial to these foods by giving them separate meals from everyone else in the household are actually encouraging picky eating. In the New York Times article, Dr. Muth suggests that one family should eat one meal together. By eating one meal as a family, children can be eased into different types of food as they watch other family members eat the same meals.\nTraining young children at an early age to appreciate a variety of foods will help children develop healthy eating behaviors, therefore benefiting their health in the long run. Parents can help with children\u2019s learning process by actively engaging with them to establish a dialogue about their food preferences. That way, parents can also encourage autonomy and responsible decision-making in their children by allowing them to make healthy food choices. The act of eating itself can be an activity for the family, and a way for a child to invest in his or her future.\nTagged: Eating, Food, Pediatrics, Family, Childhood\nNewer PostWhat Junk Food Does to Your Brain and Why Kids are Fighting Back to Get Healthier\nOlder PostHandwashing Day, Everyday",

The fact that the information is all hosted offshore also makes it rather more difficult for Chinese authorities to target the site, whereas permanent websites and blogs are easier to attack. At the time of writing, the Twitter network is fulfilling the role of bringing together groups of people interested in rights lawyering more effectively than any previous method. Also, as some of the posts above demonstrate, Twitter\u2019s networks are enormous and diverse; its jargon changes daily; the identity of its users is often unclear; it covers material both serious and frivolous; and it is transnational with no one location. In short, it is the epitome of a pluralist media source, and can thus be linked back to the concept of the post-socialist society.\"",

That includes over-the-counter medications, but not sponsorships (the Super Bowl had two health care systems as partners). While magazine advertising has dropped off somewhat with the withering of the publishing industry, television advertising has risen 55 percent for hospitals and 30 percent for prescription drugs in that period.\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/su...-you.html?_r=0\nI am so sick of it all. I still \"stress\" about my blood pressure and take 3 meds, older class, and still not as LOW as \"they\" say it should be. A friend sent me info on newer guidelines of 115/75 and the drug being pushed is telmisartan. I don't think it's real new but newer. I never heard of it. Just talked to the CVS pharmacist and for 90 tabs of a moderate dose it's $400+, I howled and said I'd rather die. I have no drug insurance.\nI question the new guidelines just like the statins and that dangerous cholesterol.\nMy supplements are CHEAP. Too too bad I can't get off the BP meds and bring down the BP. I'll stick with what I take now.\nThere is no guideline of \"115/75\".\nThere are multiple guidelines that depend on age and the presence of other medical conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease.\nThe guideline for under age 60 or over 60 with medical problems is 140/90. For over age 60 with no medical problems it's 150/90.\nhttp://www.nmhs.net/documents/27JNC8...ookBooklet.pdf\nTwo of my BP meds are free at Publix.\nTelmisartan has been around since 1998.\nOriginally Posted by Cida\nDoctors would be thrilled if there were no prescription drug advertising.\nAMA Calls for Ban on Direct to Consumer Advertising of Prescription Drugs and Medical Devices\nAllowing doctors and hospitals to advertise was predicated on the idea that competition would lower prices. It has not done that.\nOn the 115/75 guideline, here is where I've read it.\nBest Drug To Treat Hypertension - Life Extension\nYou will note that that number is the opinion of the writer of the article. It is not the recommended blood pressure goal for treated hypertension.\nFor many folks, 115/75 would be too low, with a risk of dizziness and fainting, particularly older people.\n\"If you're a healthy adult younger than age 60, or if you have chronic kidney disease, diabetes or coronary artery disease, your treatment goal is less than 140/90 mm Hg. If you're a healthy adult age 60 or older, your treatment goal is less than 150/90 mm Hg.\"\nBlood pressure chart: What your reading means - Mayo Clinic\nFor the person who left the unsigned rep asking how I know doctors would be thrilled if there were no prescription drug advertising, read the link. The AMA has called for a ban on direct to consumer drug advertising.\nAs suzy has already pointed out...not a \"guideline\" just an opinion along with the recommendation for the drug you howled about...neither the \"opinion\" nor the \"drug\" is pushed by conventional MD's\nIt does seem funny that you are howling about these opinions when they come from a supplement guru and known quack from the odious Life Extension Foundation like William Faloon...\nI would think you would be buying anything he's selling.....opinions included....\nWell to be honest, I questioned that too about Faloon's works. But I don't make claims to know it all.\nIt is no secret that doctors have a financial interest in selling their patients expensive new drugs, now many made in china, so we avoid them as much as possible, regardless of the marketing media non sense. They make billions by scaring people into thinking that have some magic cure which in some cases will make you worse.

        "raw_content": "By: Brian\tDate: April 21, 2009\nOVERSEAS INVESTMENT ACT REVIEW\nThe Finance Minister has announced that there will be a review of the Overseas Investment regime that governs foreign investment in New Zealand. The focus will be to:\nput in place immediate measures, so that more applications are decided by the Overseas Investment Office, rather than Ministers. It is anticipated that applications will be turned around more swiftly. These measures will not require any legislative changes.\nconsider changes to the Overseas Investment Regulations that dictate other aspects of the application process.\nconsider changes to the scope of the overseas investment screening regime generally, for example whether screening thresholds that determine the types of land considered \u2018sensitive' should be changed.\nThe aim of the review is intended to make the process quicker and less complex and will have the benefit of stimulating more overseas investment in New Zealand, while also retaining the opportunity to protect assets and land that needs to be protected, but reduce the cost and complexity of decision making.\nThe Act currently applies to both \u201csensitive land\u201d and \u201csignificant business assets\u201d, there is considerable focus on what is, and is not, sensitive land for the purposes of the Act. The definition of sensitive land contains a number of inconsistencies.\nIt is a reality that many foreign investments in land have to be screened under the Overseas Investment Act because they adjoin areas such as recreation reserves. For example, a proposal for a rest home had to be screened because it was next to a playing field. Any land that exceeds 0.4 hectares in area and adjoins a road or certain types of reserve, which in turn adjoin the sea or a lake, is also classified as sensitive.\nIt needs to be demonstrated by the investor subject to the regime that the investment will benefit New Zealand. Where the sensitive land includes non-urban land over 5 hectares, the benefit must be substantial and identifiable. The Act and the associated regulations do set out a number of factors that the Overseas Investment Office and the relevant Ministers must consider when assessing the benefit of an overseas investment, but in practice there is no real guidance in the Act or elsewhere as to what constitutes substantial and identifiable benefit.\nIt is considered that the review will ensure important sensitive and culturally or historically valuable land be retained while unnecessary barriers to foreign investments that could help the economy are removed. It is anticipated that minor transactions that were never intended to be caught by the Act due to technical drafting issues with the legislation will be ameliorated.\nCabinet agreement to any recommendations arising from the review will be sought by the end of June 2009. The timing of any necessary legislation is yet to be determined by the government but we will keep you posted.\nCROWN DEPOSIT GUARANTEE SCHEME \u2013 NEW ZEALAND\nNew Zealand has, like many other governments around the world, introduced a deposit guarantee scheme to ensure ongoing depositor confidence and align the New Zealand market with the rest of the world. The scheme guarantees deposits made by retail investors with three types of financial institutions. The first of these is trading banks, whether locally incorporated or overseas banks thatoperate through New Zealand branches. Deposits to these will be covered, as will non-resident deposits made in branches of overseas banks. However, for approved local branches of overseas banks existing on 12 October 2008, the guarantee for non-resident depositors is capped at the total amount owed to such depositors at 12 October 2008, allowing for growth of 10% per year. The second type is Non-Bank Deposit Takers (NBDTs) and the third type is Collective Investment Schemes.\nInterests in superannuation schemes, unit trusts, shares or similar instruments where the income from the investment is shared, except for cash PIEs, are not covered under the guarantee. Subordinated debt issued by banks or non-bank deposit takers is also not covered.\nThe scheme guarantees principal and interest for those guaranteed financial institutions that go into default between 12 October 2008 and 12 October 2010. The New Zealand Treasury announced in March of this year that it will continue to review and assess the ongoing need for, and design of, an arrangement, if any, to replace the deposit guarantee scheme. There is a cap on the value of deposits that are guaranteed. The cap is $1million dollars for individual investors. . To check which financial institute has registered under the Scheme to obtain the benefit of the guarantee view the New Zealand Treasury website (www.treasury.govt.nz)\nWHOLESALE GUARANTEE FACILITY\nThe Crown now offers a wholesale funding guarantee facility to investment-grade financial institutions in New Zealand.\nThe aim of the facility is to support the re-entry of New Zealand banks to regular foreign markets on a scale commensurate with the economy\u2019s overall financing needs. It is available to financial institutions that have an investment grade credit rating and have substantial New Zealand borrowing and lending operations.\nThe facility operates on an opt-in basis, by institution and by instrument. New issues of senior unsecured negotiable or transferable debt securities are eligible for inclusion.\nA guarantee fee is charged, differentiated by the credit rating of the issuer and the term of the security being guaranteed. For further details on the fees, that were revised in March of this year and are reviewed monthly, go to www.treasury.govt.nz\nNo instruments can be covered by both this scheme and the deposit guarantee scheme.\nAs a condition of continuing to receive fresh guarantees on new issues, banks utilising this guarantee facility are required to maintain an additional 2 per cent capital buffer on top of the existing required 4 per cent Tier 1 capital. Branches of foreign banks are included among the institutions eligible for a wholesale guarantee but only in respect of their New Zealand dollar issuance.\nAll issuers in the guarantee facility are required to undertake that the foreign exchange risk associated with the foreign currency borrowing will be hedged and managed.\nThe guarantee will cover paper issued until its maturity or for up to five years, whichever is the lesser.\nApplications to join the facility are sent to The Treasury, which has overall delegated responsibility for management of the scheme.\nTransfer pricing is the setting of prices for the transfer of goods, services and intangibles between associate parties. New Zealand has transfer pricing legislation to ensure that profits are not manipulated to obtain an overall tax benefit.\nWith over two-thirds of world trade involving multinational enterprises \u201cMNEs\u201d, it is estimated that 50% or more of the world trade comprises of associated party transactions. In response, tax authorities around the world are implementing and updating their rules and regulation on international transactions and increasing audits.\nThe Inland Revenue Department is responsible for identifying which pricing practices are legitimate and those that are not. It has established an International Audit Unit to give advice and assistance to investigators on transfer pricing issues.\nA recent Australian case, Roche Products Pty Limited v CIR [2008] AATA 639, is the first major decision in Australasia dealing with the application of transfer pricing rules to cross-border transactions.\nNew Zealand transfer pricing legislation, in common with that in Australia, contains five methods for calculating the arm\u2019s length value for a transaction. They are:\nthe comparable uncontrolled price method \u2013 involves comparing the controlled price between related parties with an uncontrolled price between independent parties, while addressing various matters to ensure that the prices are comparable.\nthe resale price method \u2013 takes the resale price of the product acquired at a controlled price and applies an appropriate gross margin to arrive at an arm\u2019s length price.\nthe cost plus method \u2013 takes the costs incurred by the supplier selling at a controlled price and applies an appropriate mark up to arrive at an arms length price for sale.\nthe comparable profits method.\nIn the Roche case it was determined the best method to use was the comparable uncontrolled price method, but the difficulty is that comparable sales are hard to find as, as was noted, pharmaceutical companies rarely sell their products through third parties, and where that does happen, they only deal with marketing processes linked to varying retail circumstances.\nIn what has been said to be a novel approach, the Court, although presented with a number of expert reports setting out the differing methodology for price determination, did not consider the expert evidence in isolation but also had regard to additional matters it considered relevant such as the profitability of Roche Australia generally and overall market conditions.\nThis decision is expected to give guidance to those dealing with entities in New Zealand on how to apply the comparable uncontrolled price method where comparables are not readily available.",

        "raw_content": "The Civil Side: What Happens Before the Active Military is Requested - by Kerry Kimble\nI got this article from Kerry Kimble, here at the Division, and wanted to pass it along. While the article was written in a personal, rather than a DEM representation capacity, I think it is a very insightful read and Kerry gave me the OK to share it here.\nIn short, the article is intended as a primer for National Guard and/or military personnel who might play a role in a disaster response/recovery operation as to how the civilian emergency management system operates. It addresses the civilian side Incident Command System, the State/Presidential Disaster Declaration processes, Preliminary Damage Assessment efforts and evaluates how Emergency Management Assistance Compacts (EMAC) requests all combine to facilitate emergency response and recovery actions.\nI have reprinted the article, in full and without edits, below. Kerry's footnotes can also be found listed below the article. For any questions, contact Kerry Kimble on this article at klkimble@earthlink.net.\nTHE CIVIL SIDE:\nWhat happens before the active military is requested\nby Kerry L. Kimble[i]\nWith society becoming more complex, and more people living and working in hazard prone areas, disasters are posing an ever greater threat to our safety and well being. At the same point, technological developments are creating radiological and chemical hazards resulting in new challenges for local governments. States are faced with a variety of natural and man \u2013 made hazards, such as wildfires, floods, landslides, tornados, winter storms, dam failures, drought, earthquakes, and acts of terrorism[ii]. The federal government worries about the strategic threat to the homeland.\nAs the nation approaches the five year anniversary of the Hurricane Katrina disaster, the Department of Defense is undergoing its traditional review of Defense Support to Civil Authority[iii]. In an effort to meets its vision of \u201cnot a minute too soon, or a second too late[iv],\u201d U.S. Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) can bring to bear a tremendous amount of material, equipment, and personnel. The thesis of this article is to recognize that the active duty military can play a role of the cavalry coming to help during a catastrophic event, but they must be acquainted with the response community that is already in place and which they will plug into when they arrive on-scene.\nAs we know, USNORTHCOM has many missions[v]. Two that directly impact local and State jurisdictions are:\n\u00b7 Provide domestic disaster relief operations that occur during fires, hurricanes, floods and earthquakes; and\n\u00b7 When an emergency exceeds the capabilities of local, state and federal agencies the Command can provide limited, localized and specific support.\nBoth of these take the form of providing assistance to an impacted jurisdiction when tasked by the Department of Defense. With that in mind, we must remember that all disasters / emergencies[vi] are local. Whether they are a devastating tornado that shreds half of a town or an earthquake that displaces 100,000 people. It is those fire service, emergency medical, hazardous material, emergency management, law enforcement, and public safety communication professionals who respond at the moment of impact.\nTo organize the response effort for any and all incidents, there is an organization or structure which facilitates operations. Utilizing guidelines from the National Incident Management System[vii], the Incident Command System is activated. This system provides a command and control structure for dealing with all aspects of the situation.\nThe advantage of this structure is that this provides a great deal of flexibility and scalability depending upon the size of the incident. The key is that every agency involved knows where to plug into the system and what their role and responsibilities are.\nThe first response agency on the scene (usually the fire service or law enforcement) takes charge. As more and more first responders arrive, the Incident Command System structure becomes formalized. The General Staff element consists of an Incident Commander, Operations, Plans, Logistics, and Administration / Finance Section Chiefs.\nAs previously mentioned, the actual structure of the response organization is flexible and scalable. As the incident continues to evolve, other response disciplines begin to show up: mental health, non-governmental organizations, public health, environmental health, search and rescue, etc. Also depending upon the situation, private \u2013 sector based response teams can be brought in as well such as gas, water, electrical, and telephone utilities. As additional response disciplines[viii] are needed, the Incident Command System structure is expanded to include Divisions / Groups / Branches.\nThe Incident Command System may appear as a loose configuration of the willing. However, there are some similarities to the military. One important document from this system is the first responder version of an operations order, which is the Incident Action / Support Plan. This Plan describes the organizational structure, mission objectives, communications plan, and safety for the operational period, which is usually twelve hours in duration[ix]. Attachments could include: air operations, medical, base operations, demobilization, etc.\nBecause of the continuous relationship all of these agencies have and their respect for the Incident Command System, except for the initial responders, none of these additional teams self \u2013 deploy to the incident. By this we mean they do not show up on their own. This helps in the management of assets. As other local, State, and federal resources are requested and arrive on scene they check in with their appropriate team leads to obtain an update on the situation and to find out what the mission objectives for the next operational period.\nAnother element of the Incident Command System is the addition of the Command staff (Public Information Officer, Liaison Officer, and Safety Officer). These personnel report directly to the Incident Commander.\nA prime example of where the Incident Command System worked was in Pearlington, Mississippi, where the full force (sustained winds of 120 mph) of Hurricane Katrina was felt on August 29, 2005 at 10:00am CDT[x]. Agencies had established and exercise plans for a number of different scenarios. They may not have received the same amount of media coverage as other jurisdictions, but their need for assistance was just as great. Their major advantage was reliance on the system and its continued practice.\nConversely, as we all know, the City of New Orleans and the State of Louisiana were overwhelmed in dealing with the devastation. First responders became victims, critical infrastructure was damaged and / or destroyed, mutual aid was not available because of the swath of the hurricane, and the number of people adversely affected by this natural hazard. Support was available only from non - Gulf Coast states and the Federal government. Even though there were command and control issues, when the military arrived on the scene, what they brought to the response were dedicated professionals who were proficient in their skills, disciplined in maintaining their focus on the task at hand, and an organizational structure that was capable of moving tons of material and deploying forces to where they were needed.\nThese types of situations will always occur. Some entities, to one degree or another, will always be prepared to deal with the results of a natural, technological, or terrorism \u2013 related hazard event. Others may not be as prepared. This can be due to being short of the appropriate funding, an insufficient number of trained individuals, out of date equipment, or the lack of leadership. These failures are not limited to a particular response discipline or a geographical segment of the country (or even the world). In recognition of this reality, that is why all levels of government have built mechanisms to receive formal requests for assistance and to response to those requests.\nWhile the initial response is being conducted, local political authorities are taking the appropriate steps to support the responders on the ground. This is primarily conducted through the issuance of a proclamation stating that a disaster and / or emergency exists. The affect of a declaration of local disaster / emergency is to activate the response and recovery aspects of any and all applicable local and intra - jurisdictional disaster emergency plans and to authorize the furnishing of aid and assistance under such plans. In some cases, this entails the release of local disaster funds to cover the response costs.\nThroughout the country, there are systems and procedures in place to bring in additional assets when the initial wave of responders becomes overwhelmed or start to become fatigued. This is accomplished through mutual aid with surrounding local jurisdictions or internal state regional partners. From there, if additional assistance is needed, then State \u2013 level government comes in to assist in coordinating the acquisition of resources from other parts of the State and even from other States through a variety of assistance compacts. This could, eventually, lead to requests for federal assistance.\nOne of these avenues that is available to the States they can tap into for personnel and equipment is through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC). EMAC is a congressionally ratified organization that provides form and structure to interstate mutual aid.\nThrough EMAC, a disaster impacted State can request and receive assistance from other member States quickly and efficiently.\nOn behalf of the Governor, the State emergency management agency responds to requests from local entities and coordinates supporting activities of State agencies as well as the federal government in order to assist in minimizing the impacts, concerns, frustrations, and mostly the normal confusion that are part of any disaster or emergency. This agency operates through a coordinated management process through each of the four emergency management phases: prevention; preparedness; response; and recovery.\nOne of the key steps during the incident is the arrival of a federal liaison at the State Emergency Operations Center. In most cases, this individual comes from Federal Emergency Management Agency\u2019s (FEMA) regional offices. A Presidential Disaster Declaration is not a pre \u2013 requisite for this to occur. The role of this individual is to conduct a strategic assessment of the incident and report back to their headquarters. Another role of this individual is to provide advice and assistance on what federal response / recovery assets can be brought in to fill gaps in the operation.\nThe process the States need to go through to request federal assistance is very simple. It involves a formal request by the Governor outlining the severity of the incident, a description of what State and local jurisdictions have done to respond to the incident, and what type of assistance is requested. This request is routed through the FEMA Regional Administrator who validates the information, makes a recommendation, and then forwards it to FEMA Headquarters. The desired end \u2013 state is to obtain a Presidential Disaster Declaration, which will allow resources (personnel, equipment, supplies, and funding) to flow to the incident[xi].\nIn reality, federal support occurs before the Governor\u2019s request is compiled. This involves: an initial federal damage assessment team who surveys the area; delivery of water, ice, Meals Ready to Eat (MREs), and basic need supplies; public health advisories, etc.\nThe Preliminary Damage Assessment (PDA) team is a joint assessment used to determine the magnitude and impact of an event's damage. A FEMA / State / U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) team will usually visit local applicants and view their damage first-hand to assess the scope of damage and estimate repair costs. The State uses the results of the PDA to determine if the situation is beyond the combined capabilities of the State and local resources and to verify the need for supplemental Federal assistance. The PDA also identifies any unmet needs that may require immediate attention. The PDA is not a guarantee of federal assistance. PDA results are provided to the State, which uses the information as a planning tool to decide if they will request federal assistance.\nAs with everything, funding is the critical element. If other States do provide resources, then the supported state assumes responsibility for salaries, equipment costs, etc for the duration of their deployment. Therefore, the activation of the EMAC process usually takes place after issuance of a President Disaster Declaration, unless the State is willing to pay these expenses from their general or disaster funds.\nOnce a Presidential disaster declaration is signed, then the various aspects of the National Response Framework can be implemented. Assets from the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, Department of Health and Human Services, Environmental Protection Agency, the\nFederal Emergency Management Agency, etc can be mobilized and brought in. But, as stated earlier, these assets come in to support the local incident commander, not to take command[xii]. The only exception to this is when the President issues an Executive Order declaring an incident a National Security Special Event[xiii] (NSSE).\nUsually these NSSEs are for known pre \u2013 planned events such as the Olympics, national political conventions, major sporting events, etc. Federal authorities have the incident lead for a specifically designated geographical area. The fallacy of these is the cascading effects of this incident are not limited to this confined space. Local jurisdictions are responsible for the surrounding area(s). Hazards will not end at an arbitrary grid line.\nThe glamour part of responding to incidents is what is seen in the media. A firefighter putting water on flames, a search and rescue team pulling a live victim out of a collapsed building, the National Guard handing out water and ice, law enforcement arresting a looter, etc. But what is not seen, and not really thought about outside of the response community, is the logistical train to support the responders. This involves, but not limited to: feeding, sheltering, taking care (medical and mental health) of them, scheduling of shifts and replacements, fueling, etc.\nAs mentioned in the beginning, there are four phases of emergency management. During the response phase, all agencies involved [local, State, federal (USNORTHCOM, other agencies)] are focused on life safety and getting an assemblance of order reestablished. However, the hardest work comes during the recovery phased when putting people\u2019s lives back together becomes the primary objective. Except for FEMA and the SBA loans, the task falls back to the State and more importantly the local entity. This is a long \u2013 term project. For example, a tornado that is on the ground for thirty seconds may require 9 \u2013 12 months for a town to get back to normal. We are over four years from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and there are some estimates it will take 10 \u2013 20 years before the Gulf Coast returns to its pre \u2013 August 2005 standard.\nThis recovery phase is highlighted in a further restatement of the USNORTHCOM mission \u201cin providing civil support, USNORTHCOM generally operates through established Joint Task Forces subordinate to the command. An emergency must exceed the capabilities of local, state, and federal agencies before USNORTHCOM becomes involved. In most cases, support will be limited, localized and specific. When the scope of the disaster is reduced to the point that the affected jurisdiction can again assume full control and management without military assistance, USNORTHCOM will exit, leaving the on \u2013 scene experts to finish the job.\u201d[xiv]\nIn conclusion, all incidents start at the local level. The emergency medical technician, firefighter, law enforcement officer, and hazardous material professionals are the first on the scene. They are responsible for the incident assessment and response operations to save lives and protect property. If the situation exceeds their capabilities, then mutual aid with the surrounding jurisdictions is requested. As the severity and complexity of the incident becomes clearer, this mutual aid may become insufficient. To fill the gap, the State needs to become actively involved because they have access to other response assets (whether they are State \u2013 level response teams, other local jurisdictions who reside at the other end of the State, or from outside of the State). When the State expends its resources, it will look to the federal community for further assistance. This assistance can take the form of funding, equipment, supplies, personnel \u2013 whether that takes the form of the military, technical advisors, or specialized responders. Regardless, the bottom line is to help the residents recover and get their lives back to normal.\n[i] The opinions expressed in this paper are solely those of the author and do not officially or unofficially represent any position by the Colorado Division of Emergency Management, Department of Local Affairs, State of Colorado, or any other local, State, federal, non-governmental, or private sector entity associated with these governmental organizations.\n[ii] Colorado Disaster Emergency Procedures Handbook for Local Governments, Department of Local Affairs, Division of Emergency Management (2007) p. 3.\n[iii] Renamed from Military Support to Civil Authority in 2004.\n[iv] http://www.northcom.mil/About/history_education/vision.html\n[v] http://www.northcom.mil/About/index.html\n[vi] Most states have a similar definition. Disaster means the occurrence or imminent threat of widespread or severe damage, injury, or loss of life or property resulting from any natural cause or cause of human origin, including but not limited to fire, flood, earthquake, wind, storm, wave action, hazardous substance incident, oil spill or other water contamination, requiring emergency action to avert danger or damage, volcanic activity, epidemic, air pollution, blight, drought, infestation, explosion, civil disturbance, hostile military or paramilitary action, or a condition of riot, insurrection, or invasion existing in the state or in any county, city, town, or district in the state. (Colorado Revised Statute, 24-32-2103).\n[vii] Homeland Security Presidential Directive - 5 Management of Domestic Incidents requires all Federal departments and agencies to adapt NIMS and use it in their individual domestic incident management and emergency protection, preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation programs (2003). .\n[viii] Besides those previous mentioned, these include: agriculture, air operations, building inspectors, communications, criminal investigation, cultural experts, information technology, mass care, sheltering, transportation, veterinarian, etc.\n[ix] A separate plan is written for each operational period.\n[x] Due to its path, Hurricane Katrina also directly hit Buras-Triumph, St. Bernard parish, St. Tammany parish, and Slidell in Louisiana.\n[xi] Colorado Disaster Emergency Procedures Handbook for Local Governments, Department of Local Affairs, Division of Emergency Management (2007), p.9\n[xii] Even national incident such at the 2003 Space Shuttle Columbia disaster are local, with a large federal presence.\n[xiii] In May of 1998, President Clinton issued Presidential Decision Directive 62 (PDD-62). This directive formalized and delineated the roles and responsibilities of federal agencies in the development of security plans for major events. The clarifying of responsibilities serves to focus more clearly the role of each agency and eliminate the duplication of efforts and resources. In 2000, the Presidential Protection Act of 2000 became public law. Included in the bill, signed on December 19, was an amendment to Title 18, USC \u00a7 3056 which codified PDD-62.\n[xiv] http://www.northcom.mil/About/index.html",

        "raw_content": "Firstly, the weak level of global trade means that a strong recovery in growth is unlikely. Among developed countries \u2013 such as the Eurozone, where domestic demand remains lackluster - stable growth is forecast for the near-term, with 1.6% in 2016 and 1.5% in 2017. The current situation in the US is not encouraging companies to create additional employment opportunities. In Japan, despite further fiscal policies in order to compensate for weak private investment, forecasts remain under pressure. An improvement is expected, however, among emerging economies, with an increase in GDP growth from 3.7% in 2016, to 4.2% in 2017. This will be supported by Brazil and Russia leaving recession in 2017, shown by a recovery in financial indicators and lower inflation, as both countries have reached their low point.\nAlthough political risks prevail in Greece, Spain and Italy, the Brexit remains Europe\u2019s key issue. Even though UK growth could reach 1.9% this year, growth in 2017 is only expected to attain 0.9% - despite the Bank of England\u2019s base rate cut in August and the anticipated scenario of a favourable deal with the European Union. Furthermore, risks need to be monitored in the property sector, which is characterised by heavy household mortgage debt (132% of available income) and a 34.6% overvaluing of prices. Within this highly uncertain context - and the terms for leaving the European Union yet to be established - sterling remains volatile and has depreciated heavily, particularly against the dollar.\nFurther to the Brexit, fears are mounting regarding the health of certain banks, notably following the results of this summer\u2019s stress tests. These tests highlighted the difficulties faced by over a dozen banks, particularly in Italy and Germany.\nT\u00f6ltse le ezt a sajt\u00f3k\u00f6zlem\u00e9nyt : Further downgrades triggered by the Brexit shock and falling oil reven...

Coins of the program feature reverse designs emblematic of the twelve creatures of the Chinese zodiac.\nThe dragon is the fifth of those twelve creatures with the rest being the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. Those born in 2012 are said to be under the influence of the dragon and are thought to have the qualities of confidence, independence and bravery.\n2012 Year of the Dragon Gold Proof Coin Designs and Specifications\nAs already indicated, the reverse of this coin showcases the image of a mythical dragon on a concave surface insuring optimum flow of the design. To the right of the dragon is a symbolic \u2018pearl of wisdom.\u2019 Below, the Chinese character for \u2018dragon\u2019 can be seen.\nHigh Relief Gold Proof Coin in Shipper\nAlso found on the reverse of this high relief is the inscription of \"Year of the Dragon.\" The Perth Mint\u2019s historic \u2018P\u2019 mintmark is shown to the right.\nThe obverse of the proof coin has the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Obverse inscriptions include \"ELIZABETH II,\" \"AUSTRALIA,\" \"1 oz 9999 GOLD,\" \"2012\" and \"100 DOLLARS.\"\nEach proof is struck from one ounce of 99.99% pure gold with a legal tender face value of AUD $100. That face value is backed by the government of Australia under the Australian Currency Act of 1965.\nThe Perth Mint includes a numbered certificate of authenticity with each coin indicating the limited 388 mintage. Also included with each release is a display case and an illustrated shipper.\nMinimum gross weight of the coin is 31.107 grams with a maximum diameter of 27.30 mm. Maximum thickness is 5.00 mm.\nPricing of the proof coin is shown as AUD $2,818.00 (~ $2,925 US), but is subject to change based on market conditions. It will ship free-of-charge if an order is placed between today and November 30, 2012.\nAd Banner to Year of the Dragon Gold Proof Coin Product Page\nThe Perth Mint (www.perthmint.com.au), wholly-owned by the State Government of Western Australia, is the official issuer of the Australian Federal Government\u2019s Gold and Silver Bullion Coin Program. The Mint opened in 1899 as Australia\u2019s third branch of Britain\u2019s Royal Mint.\nThe Perth Mint remained under Britain\u2019s jurisdiction until 1 July 1970, when ownership transferred to the State Government of Western Australia. Aside from the aforementioned bullion coins, the Perth is also responsible for releasing some of the most unique numismatic products available to collectors today.\n2012 Australian Kangaroo Silver Proof Coin in High Relief\n2012 Australian Year of the Dragon Silver Proof Coin in Five Ounces\nVery nice coin. I wish the other Dragon coins were as limited in mintage.",

        "raw_content": "Dave Helem and Thank You Very Much\n(Editors Note: Dave Helem, has come up hard and fast in the Chicago comedy scene the last few years through hard work and talent. He is also a consummate promoter - thus he typed up this shameless plug for a great show this Friday - enjoy)\nIn December 2013, I started \u201cThank You Very Much\u201d at the NYCH Gallery in the historic Pilsen community of Chicago. That was a great night. I had an already solid line up with some of my favorite comics. On our first show, the line-up was Calvin Evans, Clark Jones, Willie Lynch, Jr., and myself as the host. As an added bonus, we had some of the best drop-ins that I could ask for. Hannibal Buress, Lil Rel Howery, and Shawn Morgan all popped in that night. It was a great show. People gave me feedback about what they liked, and what I could do to make it better.\nIt was a show that I wanted to grow into one of the best shows in Chicago. I wanted people to be able to go into an intimate space different from most comedy venues, and be able to have an experience that they enjoyed. From the actual NYCH Gallery itself to the BYOB (Bring Your Own Bottle) aspect of it, I wanted it to feel very comfortable. We have even have a chef in the kitchen area of the gallery if you get hungry during the show. We really have you covered. From what started as a standard comedy show, has grown into an amazing variety show. In addition to Chicago\u2019s best comics, you have some of the city\u2019s best musicians who are dropping by for our next show on Friday March 18th. You can catch my co-producer, Felonious Munk (Comedy Central\u2019s The Nightly Show) hosting an amazing roster featuring Drew Frees (Opener for Trevor Noah, TBS Just For Laughs), Calvin Evans (opener for Tracy Morgan, Hannibal Buress, Showtime\u2019s Shameless) and Dave Helem (Big Sky Comedy Festival, TBS Just For Laughs, Opener for Hannibal Buress and Tony Rock). There will be a musical performance by the lovely and talented Becca Brown (Second City, School of Rock).\nThere is no reason to not want to come by and check out this awesome show. It is a hidden gem in Chicago, and something that people need to come check out independent Chicago comedy, and Chicago comedy done well. You never know who might drop in on our shows as well. It\u2019s truly one of those things that you have to experience with your own eyes and ears. I hope to see you on Friday. Thank you very much. (Get Tickets Here)\nContributing Writer Dave Helem",

His prolific output includes portraits of the most influential celebrities of our time, ranging from Muhammad Ali to David Bowie, from Truman Capote to Barbra Streisand \u2013 all of whom appear in the exhibition.\nViewers will experience the breadth of the civil rights movement, as well as vivid portraits of celebrities who challenged \u2013 and changed \u2013 our cultural norms. The exhibition\u2019s 46 large-format photographs tell the story of seminal moments in history from the March on Washington (1963) to Robert Kennedy\u2019s presidential campaign (1968). Schapiro\u2019s documentary approach comprises emotional portraits of heroes ranging from Rosa Parks to a sanitation striker while other images suggest how martyrs become icons.\nThe Illinois Holocaust Museum, founded by Holocaust Survivors, is dedicated to giving voice to human experience. Activists and Icons: The Photographs of Steve Schapiro exemplifies the museum\u2019s call to action: \u201cTake History to Heart. Take a Stand for Humanity.\u201d Schapiro\u2019s subjects have done that, as has the photographer, by using his powerful imagery to tell stories through the human face. The exhibition is free with museum admission.",

Unfortunately, the primary treatment options for chronic pain are surgery or heavy (and addictive) medications. <>\nFortunately, there is now another option - natural pain relief that also promotes healing.\nWhat is this miracle treatment?

The results?\n\u2022 Decreased swelling and inflammation\n\u2022 Enhanced tissue repair\nIn 1916, Einstein suggested that lasers could provide benefits to the human body. He was right. In 1967, lasers were first used in medicine, with good success. Laser treatment was approved in Europe in the 1970s and in the US in 2002.\nNow, K-Laser is the preferred choice for thousands of practitioners worldwide.\nHigh power laser therapy can stimulate all cell types including muscle, ligament, cartilage, nerves, etc., so a number of conditions can be treated by high power laser therapy.\nSome of conditions that may typically be treated by high power laser therapy include:\n\u2022 Peripheral Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia <>\n\u2022 Bruises, Contusions\nThere is little or no sensation during treatment. Occasionally one feels a mild, soothing warmth or tingling. Areas of pain or inflammation may be sensitive briefly before pain reduction.",

        "raw_content": "Fiber Broadband Market in Africa & Middle East to Boom: Report\nPRESS RELEASE -- Fibre optic access lines in Africa and Middle East (AME) is expected to grow by a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 19% between 2018 and 2023, making it the fastest growing region globally, according to GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company. Western Europe and Latin America will be growing by a CAGR of 16% and 15% respectively during the same timeframe, making them the second and third fastest growing regions globally.\nMak Rahnama, Senior Technology Analyst at GlobalData, comments: \u201cThe AME market has experienced rapid developments in the fibre segment and this will lead to an accelerated rate of fibre rollout over the next few years. However, the region is very diverse with, for example, the UAE having fibre household penetration levels of around 56% and Nigeria with 0.02% in 2018.\n\u201cThe strong growth in fibre lines in AME is being driven by government-backed national broadband plans that have objectives to expand fibre coverage and efforts to liberalise fixed markets spurring competition that will drive investments in fixed broadband infrastructure. Additionally, increasing submarine cables coming online will improve international capacity; reduce wholesale data prices and in-turn drive the adoption of broadband lines including fibre.\u201d\nHowever, one of the biggest challenges remains the significant costs associated with fibre network expansions. Many countries in the region have fairly underdeveloped fixed infrastructure, requiring large investments to rollout fibre networks. Limited financial capacity may hinder governments and operators from being able to invest in fibre network expansions.\nNonetheless, some countries such as Oman, are aggressively investing in fibre, driven by the establishment of a government-owned entity tasked with building the fibre infrastructure. Internet service providers can then leverage this infrastructure to provide businesses and households with fibre connection.",

You\u2019re only allowed to run a credit check under very specific circumstances.\nThe most important thing to remember is that you\u2019ll need to follow FRCA (Fair Credit Reporting Act) regulations. These regulations were introduced to help prevent practices that could result in identity theft or other unfair and harmful uses of the account numbers and other information contained in a credit report. As a result, credit checks are only available if you have power of attorney over a person, if they\u2019re a child in your custody, or if you get their express permission and have a valid professional reason for obtaining a credit report.\nOne such professional reason is to gather information about an employee or independent contractor before hiring that person to do work. Many companies run credit checks on their employees, especially if those employees have large financial responsibilities, and this is allowable under FRCA law. However, there are limitations in place to protect employees from potentially predatory practices. Employers aren\u2019t able to access the full credit report of their employees in many circumstances, but instead have access to a credit header that provides some of the information contained in a credit report. Again, it\u2019s necessary to have the employee\u2019s written permission in order to see this credit header.\nCredit checks may also be ran by parents and executors of wills. Parents who run credit checks need to have the permission of adult children. Executors of wills will not usually run credit checks except in very specific circumstances. Some businesses run credit checks on customers; the resulting credit reports will have limited information about account numbers, and the credit reports must be handled in a very specific way to prevent the possibility of identity theft. Identity theft from poor report handling will result in penalties and fines for the business that requested the report.\nThe individual penalties for illegally obtaining a credit report can be severe and can include a prison term of 1-2 years. This is why it\u2019s important to stick to the right procedures. Before you ask for a report on a person, make sure to have their written permission and follow FRCA guidelines for handling the report.",

With a touring experience of more than twenty years they travel near and far, from Norway to Austria, from Moscow to Barcelona. In 2008 they played the prestigious Doheny Blues Festival in Southern California, sharing the bill with Bonnie Raitt, Robert Cray and Little Feat.\nB.B. & THE BLUES SHACKS are well-known for their original blend of swinging and grooving blues, deeply rooted in 1940s and \u201850s jump blues. At least since their 2008 album release, Unique Taste the B.B.s, as the band is lovingly called by their fans, have advanced in style and sound. The new songs, all but one written collectively by the Arlt brothers, are combining the powerful blues foundation with elegant soul harmonies. Lead vocalist and harmonica player Michael Arlt became a member of Europe\u2019s Premier League of Blues and Soul vocalists, a long time ago. His elegant and economical play has earned guitarist Andreas Arlt the reputation of being one of Europe\u2019s greatest blues instrumentalists. Skillful Dennis Koeckstadt on piano, the band\u2019s youngster, knows how to play the blues the way the old masters did. Henning Hauerken, representing half of the grooving rhythm section, feels equally at home playing upright bass, or bass guitar. Along with drummer Bernhard Egger, who joined the band in 2006, he is delivering the pulsating rhythm backbone of the band.\nB.B. & THE BLUES SHACKS recorded their new album in London. They had been invited by Liam Watson, one of today\u2019s most in-demand producers, to record at his ToeRag Studios. Liam recorded and produced Elephant, the seminal album by the White Stripes. He also produced the last few James Hunter albums. In December 2009, the album was recorded \u2018live\u2019 in the studio with almost no overdubs. The B.B.s have been supported by organ player Raphael Wressnig from Austria. The horn section featured on a couple of tracks has worked with Van Morrison a.o. Within a week fifteen tracks were nailed down, an entertaining list of songs with moving soul ballads, grooving dance tunes and deep blues.\nB.B. & THE BLUES SHACKS did never comply with the image of an average European Chicago style blues, or blues/rock band. With the release of London Days these guys are raising the bar in terms of contemporary soul/blues to new heights!\nB.B. & THE BLUES SHACKS \u2013 Live at Toe Rag Studios, London, with producer and engineer, Liam Watson, December 2009, recording their 'London Days' album for CrossCut (CCD 11100)",

        "raw_content": "Discovering The Truth About Chiropractors\nUnderstanding Chiropractic and Chiropractors\nChiropractic is a type of alternative medicine that began at the end of the 19th century, involving the treatment of different musculoskeletal and associated complaints. Chiropractors finish arduous training at certain schools of chiropractic medicine and are certified and licensed by state boards. Reliable chiropractors are malpractice-insured, and most health insurance plans now cover chiropractic treatment.\nChiropractors are trained medical professionals who are well-known for their ability to relieve back and neck pain, even as chiropractic has been proven to be also effective against whiplash, vertigo, digestive disorders, chronic headaches and migraines, leg and arm problems, jaw problems, scoliosis and arthritis. Still, most patients who want chiropractic care do so due to pain in their neck, back or limbs and joints.\nChiropractors are specialists in the assessment of the human body, including the testing of joint health, nerve conduction, flexibility, and other relevant functions. On an initial exam, patients may expect a doctor of chiropractic to ask for a complete health medical history. Then the chiropractor will likely perform a very meticulous physical examination involving or not involving X-rays and other tests. There will probably be an effort to get in touch with the patient\u2019s primary care physician regarding the care that the patient is receiving (perhaps the physician has referred the patient to the chiropractor for specific treatment). Lots of doctors and chiropractors act as a team in providing patient care, making decisions as one group over the course of evaluation and treatment.\nThe chiropractor will typically prescribe exercises for the patient as part of a total routine of self-care. Follow-up appointments may be necessary a number of times per week for acute injuries, and less frequently for maintenance purposes. In certain cases, chiropractors may prescribe dietary supplements and herbal medicines as a part of the treatment of patients.\nWhile there are many different types of chiropractic, you can usually expect to lie prone or supine on a low table what is specially created for chiropractic manipulation. Chiropractors use a variety of methods to relax you before the treatment, from massage to ultrasound to electrical stimulation and many other techniques that loosen up your muscles.\nThe feeling of getting your neck, mid-spine, lower spine or hips adjusted is said to give a \u201cpopping\u201d sensation that typically relieves pain or stress. Though several chiropractors still \u201ccrack\u201d the spine and joints manually, some are now using hand-held devices called activators to provide a gentler and more precise touch that has the same function and provides the same effects as manual manipulation. A lot of chiropractors stock to manual \u201ccracking\u201d of the spine and joints, but others have been using activators or handheld devices that allow these professionals to deliver a gentler yet more calculated touch, performing the same function and delivering the same benefits as manual manipulation. Finally, there is as well a small percentage of chiropractors who use apply \u201cnetwork chiropractic,\u201d a type of chiropractic medicine where gentle touch is used in place of direct spinal manipulation.\nSupporting reference: see this",

        "raw_content": "Larry Swedroe on the importance of integrating all risks (not only the investment kind) into an overall financial plan.\nLarry Swedroe, Director of Research, The BAM ALLIANCE\nHarry Markowitz received the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences in 1990 for his contributions to the body of work known as \u201cmodern portfolio theory.\u201d Probably his greatest contribution was to turn the focus away from analyzing the risk and expected return of individual investments to considering how its addition impacts the risk and expected return of the overall portfolio.\nMarkowitz showed it was possible to add risky assets (with low or negative correlation) to a portfolio, increasing the expected return without increasing overall risk. He also demonstrated the importance of diversification of risk.\nToday most investment advice focuses on the development of portfolios that are on the \u201cefficient frontier.\u201d A portfolio that is on the efficient frontier is one in which no added diversification can lower the portfolio\u2019s risk for a given return expectation (alternately, no additional expected return can be gained without increasing the risk of the portfolio).\nWorking with the efficient frontier, investment advisors tailor portfolios to the individual investor\u2019s unique situation. Unfortunately, far too many investors and/or their advisors only focus on the risks of the investments themselves.\nManaging Financial, Not Just Investment, Risks\nWhen developing an overall financial plan, there are risks\u2014other than investment risks\u2014that are important to consider. Not integrating the management of these risks into an overall financial plan can cause even the most carefully considered and well-thought-out investment plans to fail. Among the other risks that should be considered are human capital (wage-earning) risk, mortality risk and longevity risk. Let\u2019s consider how these risks should be integrated into an overall financial plan.\nWe can define human capital as the present value of future income derived from labor. It\u2019s an asset that doesn\u2019t appear on any balance sheet. It\u2019s also an asset that is not tradable like a stock or a bond. Thus, it\u2019s often ignored, at potentially great risk to the individual\u2019s financial goals. How should human capital impact investment decisions?\nThe first point to consider is that, when we are young, human capital is at its highest point. It\u2019s also often the largest asset young individuals have. As we age and accumulate financial assets, and our time remaining in the labor force decreases, the amount of human capital relative to financial assets shrinks. This shift over time should be considered in terms of the asset allocation decision.\nThe second point is that we need to not only consider the magnitude of our human capital but also its volatility. Some people (such as tenured professors, doctors and government employees) have stable jobs, and thus their labor income is almost like an inflation-indexed annuity. In other words, it acts very much like a bond. Other people (such as commissioned salespeople and construction workers) have labor income that is more volatile, and thus acts more like equities. Financial advice should incorporate these differences.\nFor example, for people with safer labor income, it might be appropriate to invest more aggressively\u2014with a higher allocation to equities overall and perhaps higher allocations to riskier small and value stocks. Those with riskier labor income should consider holding less aggressive portfolios (those with higher bond allocations).\nThis gets to the heart of Markowitz\u2019s work on portfolio theory: An asset shouldn\u2019t be considered in isolation. Note there may be times when the riskiness of one\u2019s human capital changes (after a career change, for example). If the riskiness of the human capital increases, one should consider reducing the riskiness of the other assets in the portfolio, and vice versa.\nA related issue is the significance of human capital as a percentage of total assets. If human capital is a small percentage of the total portfolio (because there are large financial assets), the volatility of the human capital and its correlation to financial assets becomes less of an issue.\nCorrelation, Health And Mortality\nThe third point we need to consider involves one of the most basic principles of investing\u2014don\u2019t put too many eggs in one basket. Individuals should avoid investing in assets that have a high correlation with their human capital. Unfortunately, far too many people follow Peter Lynch\u2019s advice to \u201cbuy what you know.\u201d The result is that they invest heavily in the stocks of their employers.\nThis is a mistake on two fronts. The first is that it\u2019s a highly undiversified investment. The second is that the investment is likely to have a high correlation with the person\u2019s human capital. Employees of such companies as Enron and WorldCom found out how costly a mistake that can be.\nThe fourth point to consider is that human capital can be lost due to two risks that need to be addressed by means other than through investments. The first is the risk of disability. This risk can be addressed by the purchase of disability insurance. Thus, the risk of disability and how to address it should be part of the overall financial plan. The other risk is that of mortality. That issue can be addressed by the purchase of life insurance (we will discuss that in more detail).\nThere are still other points to consider. All else being equal, people with a high earning capability have a greater ability to take more financial risk because they can more easily recover from losses. However, they also have a lower need to take risk. All else being equal, the higher their earnings, the lower the rate of return they need from their investment portfolio to achieve their financial goals\u2014they can choose less risky investments and still achieve them.\nRisk Tolerance And Adaptability\nAnother factor is investors\u2019 willingness to take risk\u2014their risk tolerance. It\u2019s important that investors don\u2019t take more financial risk than their stomachs can handle. The reason is that, when the inevitable bear markets arrive, they might be more inclined to panic-sell, and the best laid plans would end up in the trash heap of emotions.\nEven if they were not driven to panic, life is just too short not to enjoy it. One should be able to \u201csleep well\u201d with his or her investments. Thus, a high earnings capability, or even a high need to take risk, shouldn\u2019t necessarily result in an aggressive investment portfolio.\nYet another factor to consider is the ability to adjust your \u201csupply\u201d of human capital. Consider the following: You develop a financial plan that allows you to retire at age 65. However, the market\u2019s rate of return falls below the expected return you built into your plan, or you weren\u2019t able to save as much as you had expected. Now you will need to work longer.\nCan you continue in the labor force? What level of income can you generate? Will the market allow you to sell your skills, and at what price? Younger workers typically have more ability to adjust their supply of human capital. In addition, those with a variety of skill sets also have a greater ability to adjust their supply to economic conditions.\nWe\u2019ll revisit this discussion later in the week to consider additional risk factors, including mortality and longevity risk, and using \u201ctax alpha\u201d strategies to improve the odds of achieving your financial goals.",

        "raw_content": "Writing Articles That Capture The Audience\nThere\u2019s thousands, millions of article sites out there. You might even count blogs as article web sites and there are new ones popping up every day. The question is: what writing makes you want to read them?\nYou. You you you.\nYou. It\u2019s all about you. When writing an article or a tutorial, make sure it\u2019s directed to the person reading it. No one cares about what the author thinks, you want to get the job done. You don\u2019t care about them. Make sure you don\u2019t use words like \u201cwe, us, I\u201d and use \u201cyou.\u201d It keeps the article or tutorial personal.\nKeep the grammar casual, but still good. Do you want to sift through a mess of spelling errors and run-on sentences trying to figure out what the author is saying? No, of course you don\u2019t. No one does. Spell check it, grammar check it, read over it once. Make sure your readers can understand you.\nWhen you read an article, usually you want to see some kind of concrete proof about something the author is talking about. If the article you\u2019re reading is a tutorial, you want to see the end result, right? So put it at the beginning. You don\u2019t want to have to scroll all the way down to see what the final outcome of all your work is to decide you don\u2019t like it. Put your examples at the top to show your readers.\nMake sure your readers aren\u2019t bored. If you\u2019re going to be writing a long article, might as well make it fun for them to read. You don\u2019t want to read an article straight from a science journal (unless it is a science journal), and even then it should still be somewhat casual. I\u2019ve seen some science articles that are interesting because of how it\u2019s written.\nPut a spin on your writing. Make it your own. It\u2019s cliche, yes, but do it! No one wants to read the same idea over and over. I know I\u2019ve been somewhat guilty of it, but some rule breaking is allright. Like talking about myself here. It\u2019s an example. Refer to #3.\nBold words always help. So do lists, links, and quotes. Readers like you can skim for the bold words they\u2019re looking for, and find what they want. It\u2019s perfect for them. Saves time, and gets to the point.\nAlways have an awesome conclusion that wraps it up nicely. You always want to see that whole work of art brought together with a nice summation. So if they want to skip that boring article you wrote because they didn\u2019t pay attention, you can hope they\u2019ll read that nice summarized conclusion. Like this: Make the article personal, use lots of examples and styled text to make the article easier for the user, watch your grammar, and make the article your own and have fun with it!\nThis entry was posted in ARTICLES and tagged capturing the audience, good articles, tutorials, writing articles, writing effective articles by DaveFin.

        "raw_content": "When I introduced \"The Myth of the Secular,\" the last series I did for Ideas, I mentioned that it was done in a style that I had first used in this series, \"The Age of Ecology,\" broadcast in 1990. During the 1980's I had grown restive with the conventional documentary in which a group of speakers are deployed as beads on a string created by the programme maker. A couple of things bothered me. The first was that the you-go-then-I-go rhythm of the documentary inevitably limited each speaker to a certain short span of time - it was a lot longer in an Ideas programme than in a television documentary, where one point per \"clip\" or \"insert\" is the almost unvarying rule, but more than three or four minutes was unusual and likely to make the documentary feel lumpy and unbalanced. So people with a lot more to say were often limited to what the exigencies of the documentary allowed them. The second was that the narrative momentum of the documentary often prevented much attention to what was individual about the individual speakers in the programme. To talk about their curiculum vitae, or the way in which their ideas had formed and developed, or how these ideas might differ from the documentary's artificial consensus was often difficult or impossible. So I settled on the one person at a time, and sometimes one person per programme, scheme that I worked with on and off for the next twenty years or so.\nThis method allowed me to present a spectrum of views without having to reconcile or even compare them. Each person's thought could unfold in its own time and on its own terms. There was time to explore how each one came to think as he or she did, and how each one defined his or her terms. My theme, the age of ecology, was well-suited to this treatment. Practically everyone agrees that we live in such an age, now sometimes called the Anthropocene in recognition of the fact that human impacts on nature now register on geological time scales, but there the agreement ends. Do we need more management, more science, more regulation, or less? Can a retooled capitalism pilot \"spaceship earth\" to salvation, or is a more fundamental change of attitude required? I first became aware of this question in 1970, when Ivan Illich spoke at a teach-in some friends and I had organized in Toronto. The environmental crisis, Illich said, presented a fundamental choice: either we would turn back from the edge that was beginning to become visible, or we would try to manage a precarious life on this edge by means of an ever more comprehensive and intrusive set of calculations and controls. Illich, typically, was a little ahead of his time, but twenty years later the choice he had offered was rapidly being decided in favour of the management option. My series was an attempt to draw attention to some of the more searching and more critical approaches to the age of ecology that I had come across; and without, as I've said, having to bring them all into precise alignment. Included in the series were the following thinkers:\nPart One: Wolfgang Sachs and Donald Worster\nPartTwo: David Ehrenfeld and John Livingstone\nPart Three: Thomas Berry\nPart Four: Vandana Shiva and Frederique Appfel-Marglin\nPart Five: John Todd\nPart Six: James Lovelock and William Irwin Thompson\nPart Seven: Murray Bookchin and Stuart Hill\nPart Eight: Bill McKibben, David Rothenberg and Erazim Kohak\nThe year after these shows were broadcast Jim Lorimer published a book called The Age of Ecology - the cover is pictured above - in which transcripts of a number of my programmes, including some episodes from this series, were gathered. Remarkably the book is still in print.\nTagged: Wolfgang Sachs, Donald Worster\nNewer PostThe Ideas of Northrop Frye Part Three\nOlder PostAge of Ecology Part Two",

Photo: Cornell University.\nA plug flow digester is a type of anaerobic digester that uses a long, narrow horizontal tank in which a material (manure) is added at a constant rate and forces other material to move through the tank and be digested. Typically a plug flow digester vessel is five times longer than it is wide, is insulated and heated, and is made or reinforced concrete, steel, or fiberglass. A gas tight cover traps the biogas which is given off. This biogas is used to heat the digester to the required temperature and run a generator.\nA plug flow digester has no means of agitation. The term \"plug flow\" derives from the fact that the manure in principle flows through the digester vessel as a \"plug,\" gradually being pushed toward the outlet as new material is added. In fact, the situation is more complicated and this and some parts of the manure travel faster than others on their way through the vessel, or may even settle or float and remain in the digester.",

        "raw_content": "Pure magic. Toy Story, the first-ever fully computer-animated feature and the film that put Pixar Studios on the map, is more than a technical tour de force. It\u2019s moviemaking alchemy \u2014 a breathtakingly perfect blend of wide-eyed childhood wonder and wry adult humor, yesteryear nostalgia and eye-popping novelty, rollicking storytelling and touchingly honest emotion.\n1995, Disney/Pixar. Directed by John Lasseter. Voices: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen\t, Don Rickles, Jim Varney, Wallace Shawn, John Ratzenberger, Annie Potts. Animated.\nSome scenes of menace and mildly scary imagery.\nFirst-time feature director John Lasseter brings a sure hand to a tale that takes us back to a time when playthings seemed as real to us as other people, and a beloved teddy bear, doll, or stuffed dog was almost as important a fixture in our world as our parents or siblings.\nFor young Andy (John Morris), the sun rises and sets on his lanky Sheriff Woody doll. And Andy is just as important to Woody (Tom Hanks), who presides in Andy\u2019s absence over the inhabitants of Andy\u2019s room, which include an acerbic Mr. Potato Head (Don Rickles), an unassumingly loyal Slinky Dog (Jim Varney), an anxiety-ridden T-Rex (Wallace Shawn), and a sweet Bo-Peep doll (Annie Potts).\nBut the status quo is upset by the arrival of a flashy new toy: Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), space ranger, who impresses the other toys with his nifty features and threatens Woody\u2019s place as Andy\u2019s favorite \u2014 and, in an inspired stroke, doesn\u2019t realize he\u2019s a toy.\nWoody\u2019s jealousy and pettiness toward Buzz lead to a series of increasingly serious consequences, including getting lost and finally falling into the hands of a future juvenile delinquent named Sid (Erik von Detten) whose sadistic tendencies make him a hazard to any toy he gets his hands on.\nOf course Woody must work through his resentment and redeem himself, Buzz must face the truth about himself, the two must learn to accept and respect one another, and Sid must be taught a lesson as well. The joy, though, lies in the grace and deftness with which all these elements are brought together, in the neatly crafted plot and the rightness of the characterizations.\nIt\u2019s also a joy just to watch the film, to take in the exactness of every detail of the toys, down to the translucent green tags of extra plastic on the toy soldiers and the back-and-forth undulations of Slinky Dog\u2019s steel-spring body. Behind this must surely lie untold hours of Pixar animators just sitting around playing with toys \u2014 and, judging from the results, enjoying it as much as Andy himself, whose spirit of imagination and playfulness is matched by the filmmakers\u2019 own.\nTags: Animation, Comedy, Family, Fantasy, Pixar",

        "raw_content": "Something I\u2019ve been thinking about recently is neuroevolution (NE). NE is changing aspects of a neural network (NN) using principles from evolutionary algorithms (EA), in which you try to find the best NN for a given problem by trying different solutions (\u201cindividuals\u201d) and changing them slightly (and sometimes combining them), and taking the ones that have better scores.\nFor example, a really simple NE algorithm could be where the number of nodes of the NN are set, as well as the connections between them, but each individual has a different set of values for the weights of those connections. When you \u201cmutate\u201d an NN, you change one or several of those weights. The fitness function (FF) could be the score in a game played by that NN (so, you\u2019d have to at least match the number of inputs and outputs for the game). So you have a generation of N individuals play the game, then choose the ones that scored best, and change them slightly or recombine them to get the next generation.\nSomething that attracts me to NE is that it\u2019s similar to how our brains developed (being very liberal with some definitions, anyway). Our brains didn\u2019t get to the crazy complex things they are by gradient descent, they developed via the species randomly \u201ctrying\u201d things and \u201ckeeping\u201d the ones that worked. On the flip side, it understandably might sound crazy to be (semi) randomly searching for NN weights when we have pretty great methods for finding them.\nYou can\u2019t read the literature on NE for too long without bumping into NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies, or NEAT. While the example I gave above is the simplest way you could do NE, Kenneth Stanley proposed another thing you can mutate: the number of nodes, as well as the connections between them! (The paper actually does a bunch more, but that simple version is what I\u2019ll do.)\nSo, you could start out with a NN like this:\n\u2026and end up with one like this after evolving for a while:\nI used networkx for this plot, and made it so the connection weights are blue for positive values and red for negative, with both being more opaque, the bigger the magnitude. I\u2019ve also labeled the input nodes in light green, the output nodes in orange, the bias node in dark green, other nodes in lavender (if there are any), and put a legend for each of their corresponding meanings.\nIf you wanna be cynical, you could ask how much this is really an improvement over just choosing a NN with conservatively many enough nodes/connections to begin with and then doing the first method I mentioned above (often called \u201cfixed topology\u201d). Here are a few answers to that, off the top of my head. First, if done right, this potentially lets you find the absolute simplest NN that can solve your problem. Another is that it can create unusual topologies of NN\u2019s \u2014 for example, even restricting them to strictly feedforward, non recurrent NN\u2019s, it can essentially create \u201cskip\u201d connections (and layers basically aren\u2019t defined at all). There are more interesting and powerful advantages, but I\u2019ll leave it at that for now.\nInterestingly, KS actually did a paper on this with Uber AI in the past few months! They use NE to play the same Atari games from the famous Deepmind DQN paper. They actually do better than DQN on a few examples, and supposedly with way less training time! Some reviewers of it seemed a bit skeptical of some of the bigger claims (not comparing it to the best DQN techniques, if I recall), but either way, it\u2019s pretty cool to see EA doing something competitive.\nSo, I wanted to dip my toe into the NEAT water. Instead of creating my own environment for once, I decided to try that \u201cbeing efficient\u201d thing and use OpenAI gym, which was really simple to set up and use. Here\u2019s what I do. All individuals start with the same topology: 1 bias node, that always has a value of 1.0, input nodes (dependent on the environment), and output nodes (same). They start with no connections between them, so they\u2019re going to be horrible at first.\nThe network is basically an RL-style Q-network, where at each iteration, the state is given as input, and the output nodes give Q values for each of the actions, which I select with argmax (I think I could just as effectively do a policy network instead just as easily, and do a softmax over the outputs to select them, since I\u2019m not really using any RL theory, just a common structure for the function approximation).\nEvery generation, each of the individuals play the gym game, and get a FF score. They\u2019re then sorted by this, and the top are chosen and duplicated as many times as needed to get again. Then they\u2019re each mutated. I also do a thing I\u2019ve seen in lots of papers, where the \u201cchampion\u201d (best) is passed to the next generation without mutation.\nMutation can do three things: 1) change a weight, with probability 0.98, by a Gaussian random with SD = 1.0, 2) add a weight between two nodes, with probability 0.09, 3) remove a weight between two nodes with probability 0.05, or 4) add a node between two existing nodes, with probability 0.0005. I just grabbed these percentages from some NE paper, but their relative values make some intuitive sense: for many problems, if a NN has enough nodes and connections, the main problem is probably that its existing weights are bad, so most mutations should change that.\nI\u2019m actually not doing mating here, since I think mating is potentially really complicated, I see lots of papers not doing it either, and I think I can get what I want from just mutation anyway.\nSo let\u2019s try it!\nThe first environment I tried was CartPole, the classic. The goal is to keep the pole upright by moving the cart to the left or right. The action space here is discrete, so you only choose one action each timestep and that action is done some constant amount. The episode ends if the cart goes off the screen or the pole deviates from the vertical too much.\nHere are 9 consecutive runs with the best agent, from a population of 16, 256 generations, 2 runs with each agent (~5 min runtime on my derpy laptop):\nHere\u2019s a plot of the FF of the best individual at each generation, as well as the mean of the population:\nFinally, here\u2019s the best NN that it produced.\nCartPole gets solved pretty quickly, since it apparently needs an incredibly simple NN to work. This makes sense. The position of the cart isn\u2019t important at all really (even if you\u2019re near the edge, if you have to go off screen to keep the pole up, you\u2019re just in between a rock and a hard place). The cart velocity doesn\u2019t matter a ton either. Pretty much the only things that would determine your choice are the pole angle, and to a lesser extent, the angular velocity of the pole. You can see that the bias doesn\u2019t need to be connected at all for this one.\nThe next environment I experimented with was Lunar Lander. The . The reward structure is a bit weird, but the main idea is that you\u2019re trying to land the spaceship within the flagged area, upright, and softly, or the lander will explode and you\u2019ll get punished. The state space has 6 dimensions: the x and y positions, the x and y velocities, the angle of the spaceship, and the angular velocity of it. There are 4 discrete actions: main thruster (out the bottom), left and right thrusters, and do nothing.\nHere are 9 consecutive runs with the best agent at the end, from a population of 64, 256 generations, 2 runs with each agent (~2 hrs runtime on my derpy laptop):\nFinally, here\u2019s the best NN that it produced. Before I saw the results, I completely predicted that the EA would need to create at least a hidden layer. From the toy problems I had done before, it seemed like pretty simple problems still need the ability to create functions that need at least one nonlinearity. But\u2026\nIt\u2019s actually still totally linear! Apparently you can get pretty good behavior with just the right combo of weights.\nThere were a few little tricks I had to figure out. One is that it seems very critical to have each individual do more than one run (game) in a generation, to get the FF. LL has some randomness to it, so every game is a little different. If you only do one run per agent, what typically happens is that one (or a few) of the population will happen to start in a lucky position for its weights, and will get a relatively good score in that generation. However, the weights weren\u2019t actually good \u2014 for example, maybe they make it always go left, and it got lucky and started in a position off to the right. What we really want, of course, are weights that actually do some sort of comparison/calculation of the current position and velocities, so it can win no matter where it starts. So what seems to happen when only doing one trial per agent is that any individual that might actually have a shot at getting the right weights (but doesn\u2019t have them tuned well yet) will get beaten in a given generation by one of the fluctuations, which will rise to the top and fill the population.\nSo, using even 2 or 3 trials per agent in each generation, and taking the mean FF of those trials, really selects for ones that can do slightly better more than once in a row. Simply, it\u2019s searches for some generalizability. You\u2019re obviously doing more runs, but it seems to be vastly more effective that doing that many more times generations.\nHere\u2019s a neat thing. I was curious about whether I could see distinct and sensible changes to the NN that caused the FF to increase, so I took the plots of the current best NN over time and looked at them at a few points in the evolution. Here\u2019s the consecutive runs at the end with the best agent (for funs) and the FF plot (best and mean, but best is more meaningful here):\nThe first increase in the FF you can see starts around generation 100. If we look at the NN before\u2026\nwe can see that the main change is that node 4 ( ) has now been connected (with a meaningful weight) to node 9, which controls the main thruster! This is what allows it to actually slow its descent, which is probably the most important thing for solving this problem; it seems like most instances of LL start with it right above the goal, so that control alone would be good enough for most anyway.\nThe next big jump you can see in the best FF curve is around generation 300. Again, if you look at the NN before..\nyou can see that connecting node 1 ( ) to one of the L/R outputs (node 8) gave it the ability to move left and right! This seems to be the big thing it was missing. After that, there are improvements, but they seem mostly incremental (maybe fine tuning weights, or using less important inputs like the angle).\nThe trickiest, though, was Pendulum-v0, the classic inverted pendulum. It actually only has 4 inputs and a single output, but the action space is continuous rather than discrete, meaning that we have to give it a value between -2 and 2 (no argmax is done to the output here). This corresponds to how much torque it applies to the pendulum, and you can imagine that it might be harder to evolve to because it might require the weights to be much more finely matched to each other than for the discrete case (where there\u2019s probably a lot of leeway because for the right action, you just need one sum to be bigger than another, which could be a huge margin).\nAnother aspect that makes it a little trickier than, say, LunarLander, is that two of the state variables need to be \u201ccoupled\u201d for maximum effect. For example, it can\u2019t just use which side the pendulum is currently on to determine the action, because if it\u2019s, say, on the left side but not very high up, it can\u2019t just turn CW to get up, it has to swing back and forth several times to gain momentum. And, to know which direction it should be applying the torque to do this, it needs to know the current angular velocity (just like Mountain Car!).\nAnyway, here are some results:\nNeat! You can see that this is the first one that actually requires a hidden node. Even cooler, it seems like it also skips it? I\u2019m not sure if that\u2019s necessary, but it seems to consistently add that same node and the \u201cskip\u201d connections between different runs.\nI also tried a little variant. Whereas CartPole and LL didn\u2019t need any extra nodes, I knew that this problem required one but I guess I hadn\u2019t appreciated how small a chance the 0.0005 probability of doing an \u201cadd node\u201d mutation was. To see if that\u2019s what was causing it to take so long, I upped the node add mutation chance up to 0.005, and\u2026\nHaha holy hell! What a hairball. However, if we look at its actual performance:\ndang! So it may be crazy overengineering it, but it at least does the job well. In fact, if you look at the first pendulum gif, you can see that even though they\u2019re standing at the end, they\u2019re all kind of leaning, because it\u2019s slightly off the vertical, so they\u2019re applying a constant force. This is actually a suboptimal solution to pendulum, because it rewards it based on both the angle (foremost I think), but also how much torque it has to exert! So this one is a better solution because it makes them end upright, where it has to exert very little force to keep them that way.\nThat\u2019s all for today! I\u2019d really like to use these ideas in a more powerful and scalable way, which I\u2019ll post in the future. There are some other things I\u2019d like to check out, but they\u2019re fairly incremental. For example, I didn\u2019t have a good intuitive guess for this: what would you guess is the best top percent to take of the generation, to mutate and create the next generation from? The reason you\u2019d want to take a smaller percent (i.e., take the top 3% of the population and create the next generation just by mutating copies of them) is that you\u2019re choosing individuals that got a higher FF. However, you\u2019re also choosing a narrower search space: if those ones were just the best because they were lucky (or everything is noisy anyway), then that could definitely slow things down.\nThe code is here, but messy at the moment.\nI\u2019d also like to take a look at some form of regularization. Currently, this strategy has ways of adding and removing weights, but only adding nodes. So, over time (as seen in the pumped up version), the number of nodes can really only increase. Ideally, at some point, if the population was really good, adding a node would only hurt the behavior, so it would never add a new one. However, it seems like in practice it\u2019s pretty easy to add nodes that aren\u2019t essential, but also don\u2019t hurt behavior much, which can lead to a massive NN. So I\u2019d like to try something with removing nodes, either by adding a cost term for the number of nodes, or by ablation, removing ones and seeing how far you can go without hurting performance.\nai, artificial intelligence, cartpole, coding, computer science, evolutionary algorithm, genetic algorithm, inverted pendulum, lunarlander, neural network, neuroevolution, openai, openai gym, optimization, pendulum, programming, python, python-language, reinforcement learning, RL",

The International Business Corporation (IBC) has become the template for offshore companies the world over and the BVI also enjoys highly successful fund and maritime sectors. For many the BVI is the destination of choice for offshore companies and trusts whilst others feel that their success has made them overly expensive (by comparison with other Caribbean countries) and overly bureaucratic, and as inclined to reject business as to accept it. In any case the BVI is a reliable (if somewhat slow) world-class offshore country. Because of its success the BVI is strongly and immediately associated with tax planning and the use of BVI companies can attract unwanted attention in many cases. Demontford Bell generally discourages the use of purely offshore solutions for EU clients as being short-sighted, for more information please see our main article on offshore structures. BVI funds do not attract the same stigma as companies and trusts and it remains a popular choice for Caribbean fund registration (though second to the Bahamas).",

        "raw_content": "Artist Bio: Will Eisner\nWILL EISNER(1917-2005) is recognized internationally as a legend in the field of sequential art, a term he coined. His cartooning career spanned nearly seventy years and eight decades.\nDo you want to buy Eisner Graphic Novel or Spirit Original Comic ART: Click Here!\nEARLY CAREER... Eisner contributed to Wow, What a Magazine short;y after high school. While still a teenager, in 1936, he co-founded the Eisner & Iger Studio, a \"packaging house\" providing co ntent to publishers at the virtual onset of the comic book industry. That same year he started his buccaneer saga Hawks of the Seas. Eisner's early staff included such future luminaries as Jack Kurtzberg (later Jack Kirby, co-creator of Spider-Man and Fantastic Four), Lou Fine, Bob Kane (creator of Batman) and Mort Meskin. Eisner created Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, and soon afterward created Dollman and Blackhawk. Eisner also famously turned down a crude submission called Superman by equally young creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. An autobiographical account of those formative years can be found in Eisner's The Dreamer.\nTHE SPIRIT... In 1940, after selling his interest in the comic book packaging company to Jerry Iger, Eisner created his most famous character, The Spirit, a masked crime fighter. The Spirit was the lead feature in an unprecedented format: a 16-page color comic book that was inserted in Sunday newspapers, the first of numerous Eisner innovations. At its height The Spirit insert appeared in twenty major market newspapers with a combined circulation of 5 million readers each Sunday, quintupling the circulation of America's best-selling monthly comic book.\nMILITARY CAREER and EDUCATIONAL COMICS... From 1942-45 Will Eisner served three years as a Warrant Officer in the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.. There, during World War II, he created motivational posters and pioneered the use of cartoons for instructional purposes with the publication Army Motors. His innovative approach, combining hard information within cartoon plots proved so effective that he privately contracted with the U.S. Army in 1951 to produce P*S, The Preventive Maintenance Monthly and continued to produce the magazine for many years afterward. He formed American Visuals Corporation in 1948 to supply similar educational comics to clients ranging from the U.S. Government's Job Corps to General Motors. He also formed a separate company which produced a wide array of cartoon-based educational materials for schools across America.\nUNENDING SPIRIT... Following his army service, Eisner returned to The Spirit in late1945 and continued producing it till 1952. Though he \"retired\" the character that year, it has rarely been out of print since. The seven and eight page stories he wrote and drew each week are regarded as classics of the form. The first comic book reprints were issued by Quality Comics, from 1944-50; followed by Fiction House, 1952-54; Harvey Comics 1966-67; Kitchen Sink Press in 1973 (the \"Underground\" Spirits); Warren Publications from 1974-76 (Spirit magazine #1-16); and Kitchen Sink Press again, from 1977-1998 in periodicals (Spirit magazine #17-41, Spirit comic book #1-87, Spirit: The Origin Years #1-10, 3-D Spirit, Spirit: The New Adventures #1-8 and Will Eisner's Quarterly #1-8) and in book formats. Since 2000 DC Comics has undertaken an ambitious program to reprint all 645 stories in color hard covers as The Spirit Archives and in 2006 launched another new series of authorized Spirit stories.\nGRAPHIC NOVELS... More than a dozen years after he was already tabbed \"a national treasure\" by former assistant Jules Feiffer in The Great Comic Book Heroes in 1965, Eisner created the very first successful graphic novel ---and popularizing the term--- with the publication of his seminal A Contract with God, (1978). The semi-autobiographical \"graphic novel\" revolutionized the art form, inspiring countless fellow professionals worldwide to follow. The graphic novel is now America's fastest-growing literary genre. Following A Contract with God, at an age when his contemporaries had retired, Eisner created over twenty additional graphic novels and instructional books, including such classics as A Life Force, Dropsie Avenue, To the Heart of the Storm, Family Matter and The Name of the Game --- roughly a book per year till his death.\nEisner taught comic art classes for years at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, and authored two definitive instructional books on the medium, Comics and Sequential Art and Graphic Storytelling, both perennial sellers with over twenty reprintings each. The final book in Eisner's planned instructional trilogy, Expressive Anatomy, was on his drawing board when he died. It will be finished with the assistance of Peter Poplaski.\nAWARDS... Since 1988, one of the comics industry's most prestigious awards, The Eisner Award, has been named after him and presented annually before a packed ballroom at America's largest comics convention in San Diego. Nominees are selected each year by blue ribbon committees, with winners selected by a vote of comics professionals. Will Eisner modestly accepted several Eisner Awards over the years, as well as several Harvey Awards, the other prestigious industry award named after his close friend, the late Harvey Kurtzman. In 2001 Eisner no doubt broke a record of some sort by winning separate Harvey Awards for works he created sixty years apart: the 1940 Spirit Archives won \"Best Reprint\" while his then-newest graphic novel, Last Day in Vietnam, published in 2000, won for \"Best Graphic Novel.\" Eisner has also won numerous international awards.\nIn May 2002 Wizard magazine named Eisner \"the most influential comic artist of all time.\" Michael Chabon's Pulitzer-prize winning novel Kavalier and Clay is based in good part on Eisner. In 2002 Eisner received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Federation for Jewish Culture at the Plaza Hotel ballroom in New York City ---only the second such honor in the organization's history--- presented by Pulitzer-prize winning cartoonist Art Spiegelman.\nDOCUMENTARIES: A new film documentary, Will Eisner: The Spirit of an Artistic Pioneer is underway from Montilla Pictures (Andrew and Jon Cooke). An earlier 3-part documentary, Will Eisner: Profession Cartoonist, was produced by Brazilian director Marisa Furtado (see link at bottom). It won awards and has been televised and distributed worldwide. Discussions are underway for an American release in DVD format. Eisner was also featured in other films, such as Ron Mann's cult hit Comic Book Confidential.\nNEW/RECENT WILL EISNER BOOKS... Fagin the Jew, Eisner's reinterpretation of the villain in Charles Dickens' classic Oliver Twist, was published by Doubleday in 2003. The last major work he completed before his death, The Plot: The Secret Story of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, was published by W. W. Norton in 2005. Umberto Eco wrote the introduction. The Plot unravels one of the most pernicious hoaxes of the twentieth century, a notorious piece of anti-Semitic propoganda created and disseminated by Russia's secret police 100 years ago, purporting to be a blueprint written by Jewish leaders for taking over the world. The Plot has been published in eight languages, and arrangements for an Arabic translation is under serious consideration by the United Nations.\nFourteen graphic novels comprising the essential \"Will Eisner Library\" will be steadily re-issued by W. W. Norton, beginning with The Contract with God Trilogy (2005) a hardcover combining three titles which focus on a single mythical block in the Bronx (A Contract with God, Dropsie Avenue and A Life Force), with new art and commentary by Eisner. Will Eisner's New York will be published in hardcover in 2006, combining The Building, New York: The Big City, City People Notebook and Invisible People, with never-seen Eisner art, plus new Eisner/Poplaski art and an introduction by Neil Gaiman.\nDC Comics released The Will Eisner Companion in 2004, a career overview by Prof. Christopher Couch and librarian Steven Weiner). DC continues to publish The Spirit Archives in hardcover (over twenty volumes are planned) and is producing new editions of The Spirit, beginning in 2006 with a Batman/Spirit cross-over (Jeph Loeb/Darwyn Cooke) and a monthly Spirit series by Cooke solo.\nDark Horse Comics in 2005 published Eisner/Miller: One on One, a wide-ranging dialogue between Eisner and Frank Miller (Dark Knight, Sin City) and its M Press imprint published Will Eisner: A Spirited Life, a biography by journalist Bob Andelman, also in 2005.\nIDW Published John Law: Dead Man Walking in 2003, combining Will Eisner's original 1948 John Law stories with a new authorized Gary Chaloner incarnation of the character. All-new John Law adventures are following in 2006 from Chaloner and IDW.\nART EXHIBITS... A career-spanning art exhibit, \"The Will Eisner Retrospective\" opened at MOCCA (Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art) in New York City in May 2005, and travelled to galleries at Utah Valley State College (Orem, UT) and The University of Massachusetts in Amherst (2/06). An extended European tour is under consideration.\nEisner is also prominently represented in \"Masters of American Comics,\" a watershed exhibition devoted to comic art, which opened at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles (11/05) and will travel to art museums in Milwaukee, Newark and New York City\nWill Eisner died January 3, 2005, following complications from open heart surgery.\nThe official Will Eisner web site, overseen by Jamie Riehle is at www.willeisner.com\nDenis Kitchen Art Agency exclusively represents the Eisner estate for the sale of original artwork...\nCLICK HERE TO BUY ORIGINAL WILL EISNER\nGRAPHIC NOVEL OR SPIRIT ART\nKitchen and Hansen Agency, LLC represents the literary rights to Eisner's large body of work.\nhttp://www.kitchenandhansen.com\nThree-minute clips (Mac or PC) of Marisa Furtado's documentary, Will Eisner: Profession Cartoonist, are available at:\nhttp://marisafo.sites.uol.com.br/willeisner.html\nWill Eisner's John Law, as updated by Gary Chaloner, can be viewed at:\nhttp://www.moderntales.com/series.php?name=johnlaw\n* * * All Text \u00a9 Denis Kitchen",

        "raw_content": "Most of you have probably read about Dave Dombrowski's press conference this week where he discussed the future of the team. If you want to hear him for yourself, you can watch the video on MyFoxDetroit.com. My summary of the conference is listed below:\nSome of the big moves already happened during the off-season, so there is less of an urgency to make a bif splash in the off-season. They will have Doug Fister for the full season which is a major addition. Delmon Young will probably be back as their starting left fielder, but Dombrowski stopped short of saying it was a sure thing.\nMagglio Ordonez and Carlos Guillen will not be coming back. Brad Penny and Wilson Betemit also probably won't be returning. Joel Zumaya may be back on a minor league deal. They would like to re-sign Ramon Santiago, but Dombrowski expects competition from other teams who might see him as a starter. The Tigers still don't see Santiago as a full-time player.\nThe main focus during the off-season will be second base and third base. At the present time, the only second baseman they have is Ryan Raburn and he's not a starter. Dombrowski mentioned Danny Worth and Will Rhymes, but didn't sound really confident that either was a major league second baseman. Ideally, they would like to find a second baseman who can bat lead off.\nThey will look for help at third base as well, but Dombrowski thinks that a Don Kelly/Brandon Inge platoon would be acceptable. It appears that finding a second baseman is viewed as a more urgent need.\nAustin Jackson did not hit like a lead-off hitter. They want him to get back to hitting to right field more often. They will search for a lead off hitter - preferably a second baseman. However, Dombrowski's reluctance to guarantee Young the starting left field job suggests that they might be open to finding their lead off man there.\nThey are going to add a right-handed back-up catcher, so that Victor Martinez can be the every day designated hitter. I was hoping that Inge would be able to fill that role, but apparently he's either physically unable or just doesn't feel comfortable as a catcher. That's unfortunate, because having Martinez DH and carrying another catcher uses up a valuable bench spot. The bench could consist of Raburn, the second half of the third-base platoon (Inge?), a back-up middle infielder and a back-up outfielder.\nThe Tigers will not be as aggressive pursuing free agents this year, so don't expect any quick signings like Joaquin Benoit and Victor Matinez last year.\nDombrowski is not worried about the bullpen. He expects Al Alburquerque, Daniel Schlereth and Ryan Perry to contribute, but is open to adding a more reliable middle reliever.\nDombrowski thinks one of Jacob Turner, Duane Below, Drew Smyly or Adam Wilk could emerge as the fifth starter. However, he would also like to add a veteran as insurance, preferably a left-hander. I suspect one or two of those prospects could be involved in a trade to get help elsewhere.\nLet the serious rumors begin.",

She is one of 14 musicians from Europe, together with musicians from America, Canada, New Zealand and Australia who have been specially selected for this prestigious course.\nThe Dewar Arts Awards provided the funding to enable Naomi to attend the Banff Centre for the Arts course in jazz and experimental music.\nNaomi writes of the course at the Banff Centre that \"I felt as if I had been given a new set of ears. I learnt to listen critically to music in a new way, to understand harmony better and play from musical scores that often contained no traditional musical notation at all.\" She was invited to organise a successful evening of jazz and folk fusion with the students on the course.\nWithout the financial assistance of the Dewar Awards I would have been unable to ... attend this extremely inspiring course which has broadened greatly my views on music and helped to shape my musical path.",

        "raw_content": "All requests for 2016-17 DCPTA bus due on 21 March. Only for students living outside Discovery bay. Please contact buses@discovery.edu.hk for processes.\nExternal Bus Routes \u2013 updated on 11 October 2018\nRoute A Route B1 Route B2 Route B3 Route B4 Route C Route D\nFee Schedule & Refund Policy\nRules of Respect Agreement 2018-2019\nTerms & Conditions to Use Bus Service 2018-2019\nWhat are the arrangements for the Year 1 students on the first few days of the year?\nDepending on the school arrangements for Year 1 students for the first few days of August at the start of the school year supplementary buses will be operated, subject to demand. Parents can arrange to collect their children directly from school on those days.\nWhere will the school bus drop-off and pick up from at Discovery College?\nThe school buses will drop off at Siena Club and the students will be escorted by Bus Supervisors and Discovery College staff a short walk through Siena park.\nWhy does my child\u2019s bus does not leave directly after school?\nStudents must all be accounted for by Discovery College staff checking the Bus Lists before students are permitted to leave the school premises. This generally takes 5 minutes however some children take longer to come from their class to the bus waiting area, so we allow 10 minutes from the end of school to departure from the school campus.\nDue to limited spaces for buses to wait outside Siena Club and some buses sharing routes, some students may have to wait at the school for a short while. School will ends at 15:10 and buses begin leaving at 15:20. This allows students to safely get from classrooms, to the bus waiting area and then to be escorted through Siena Park to the buses.\nWhere some students must wait at the school, they will be supervised in the play areas of the school and should not be waiting longer than 20 minutes at the most before they leave the school to catch their bus.\nWhy is the bus fee not comparable to public transport?\nThe Discovery College PTA strives to keep the bus fee as low as possible for students travelling to and from school.\nThe bus fee is not necessary linked directly to distance travelled but must also include fixed overhead costs that we pay to the bus service providers such as vehicle hire, fuel costs and employment of bus supervisors to accompany children during the bus journey.\nDue to the extremely high workload in coordinating the buses for Discovery College, a bus coordinator has been appointed. This is a paid position by the Discovery College Parent Teachers Association, which also must be factored into the cost of bus service provision paid by parents.\nIt is not possible to draw fair comparisons between the bus service provided with public transport and parents/guardians must make decisions on transportation arrangements taking into account all factors and not only cost issues.\nWhy do PTA subscriptions need to be paid in order to use the bus?\nIt is a requirement of the ESF Ordinance that PTA subscriptions are paid by every family effective from the start of the academic year 2016/17. All families of Discovery College students will pay the HK$450 per family PTA subscription.\nThe subscription fee is collected with the first instalment for use of the bus in order to reduce the number of forms completed for the PTA in order to simplify administration for the PTA Committee and for the families of students.\nWhat happens if the bus service does not have a route in the area where a student lives?\nWhere a student lives in an area that is not on the bus route due to insufficient demand in that area, arrangements can be made for such students to be picked-up/dropped-off at a location on one of the designated bus routes according to the bus schedule subject to availability.\nHow a student gets to and from a specific location on a bus route must be arranged by parents/guardians. Discovery College PTA and the bus service provider cannot be held liable for any missed connection.\nCan we have different pick-up and drop-off locations for the bus service?\nThe buses will travel specific routes which have been determined based on the responses to the Transport Survey, subsequent uptake of bus places and, where applicable, approval from Discovery Bay Services Management Limited. The routes have been selected to minimize costs, minimized the duration of the bus journey for all and cause minimal disruption to other road users and commuters.\nShould a parent/guardian in very exceptional circumstances request a student to disembark at a different location on the same route from which they are picked up on either a regular basis or once in a while, they can submit a request in writing in advance to the Bus Coordinator at buses@discovery.edu.hk , but we can not guarantee that any such request will be met and therefore parents should check on this before making a decision as to whether to use the school buses or not.\nUnfortunately, should a pick-up or drop-off at a location not on the specified bus route be required for any reason, such requests cannot be entertained and arrangements should be made to have students accompanied from their regular pick-up/drop-off location.\nWill a one-way service be provided as the new campus can offer many after school activities?\nNo. For all school students the bus service is a two-way service in order to keep costs down and efficiency high.\nCan a student take a bus that has extra capacity only when it is raining and pay a per trip bus fee?\nNo, the bus service provider and/or Bus Supervisor are not permitted to accept payment directly from any parent/guardian or student.\nWill parents/guardians/helpers be permitted to use the school bus service?\nIt is not necessary for primary school students to be accompanied on the school bus as a Bus Supervisor is present and students should follow the code of conduct for using the school bus. Parents/guardians/helpers will not be permitted to use the school bus service.\nWhat if I want to use bus service but there are no places available?\nUnfortunately, capacity on the school buses is limited as the residents and management of Discovery Bay wish to limit the number of buses within the Discovery Bay Community.\nPlease email buses@discovery.edu.hk in order to join the waiting list for the bus route that you wish to join and you will be contacted as soon as a place becomes available.\nWhat if I move during the academic year and I need to change bus route?\nYou are required to provide notice of at least one (1) calendar month to the Bus Coordinator in writing at buses@discovery.edu.hk\nChanging to a new bus route will be dependent primarily upon availability of spaces on the vehicle servicing the bus route and students currently using the bus service on that route are given priority.\nShould the fees for a bus route vary and a student is able to be reallocated, the new fee will be enforced effective from the next payment period. Fees paid will NOT be refundable.\nWhat if I want to stop using the bus service during the academic year?\nYou are required to provide notice at least one (1) calendar month to the Bus Coordinator in writing at buses@discovery.edu.hk\nBus Service Supervision and Safety Concerns\nDoes the school bus service have a Bus Supervisor on each vehicle?\nYes, A Bus Supervisor is present on every vehicle.\nThe Bus Supervisors will report any misbehaviour to Discovery College.\nParents/guardians must ensure that each student is aware of the code of conduct while using the bus service and is aware of the consequences that Discovery College will take in the event of misbehaviour including the suspension of the student from using the school buses services. The Rules of Respect must be signed and returned before student/s will be allowed to use the bus service.\nThe Bus Supervisor will report any safety concerns or incidents where safety is compromised. Such reports will be published with necessary follow-up action also reported.\nDoes the school bus have seatbelts?\nYes. Each vehicle used for the school bus service from outside Discovery Bay to the school will be full equipped with seat belts. We are currently reviewing the arrangements for buses within Discovery Bay.\nParents/guardians must ensure that each student is aware of the code of conduct while using the bus service, which includes using seatbelts, and is aware of the consequences that Discovery College will take in the event that a student refuses to wear a seatbelt. The Rules of Respect must be signed and returned before student/s will be allowed to use the bus service.\nAre parents/guardians/helpers be required to accompany students using the school bus service?\nIt is not necessary for students to be accompanied on the school bus as a Bus Supervisor is present and students should follow the code of conduct for using the school bus.\nWhat public buses can I take provided by DB Transit Services Limited from outside and inside Discovery Bay?\nInside Discovery Bay, the number 9 route from DB Plaza stops at Siena Club which is a short walk from the school through Siena Park. Details of the up to date schedule should be obtained from DB Transit Services Limited.\nIn the morning and afternoon, DB Transit Services Limited runs a supplementary bus service for students of Discovery College, DBIS and SKH Wei Lun Primary School from DB Plaza. Seats on this service are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Details of the up to date schedule should be obtained from DB Transit Services Limited.\nFrom outside Discovery Bay, there are two buses which stop on Discovery Bay Road only a walk through Siena Park to the school. These are DB01R from Tung Chung Bus Terminus and DB03R from Sunny Bay MTR Station. Details of the up to date schedule should be obtained from DB Transit Services Limited.\nDoes the school bus service make connections with public transport services or other services not coordinated by Discovery College PTA?\nThe school bus service has designated pick-up and drop-off locations and a schedule as to when pick-ups and drop-offs will be made. It is the responsibility of parents/guardians to ensure that students are at the pick-up location on the way to school and, where necessary, a responsible adult is at the drop-off location after school according to the External Bus Route Schedule (top of this document) and the Internal Bus Route Schedule (top of this document) provided.\nDiscovery College PTA and the bus service provider cannot guarantee that connections with public transport services can be made in accordance with public transport timetables.\nShould parents/guardians wish to take public transport and have the school bus service pick-up and drop-off at a specific location to facilitate this, then it is at the parent own risk and missed connections are not the responsibility of Discovery College PTA or the bus service provider.\nDiscovery College PTA and the bus service provider cannot wait at a specific location to facilitate connection with public transport or other services.\nWhere a connection is missed, the student or the accompanying adult must make alternative plans and cannot rely on the school bus to take them to another location not on the bus route.\nFor year 1 to 3 students, it is required that a designated adult accompanies the student to and from the school bus service pick-up/drop-off location should a connection with public transport or other services be desired so that contingency plans can be implemented should a connection be missed.\nWith year 1 to 3 students, where there is no designated adult to collect a student from the school bus at a location, the student affected will be returned to Discovery College to await collection from the school by a parent or parent approved adult. Any costs incurred will be at the parent\u2019s expense.\nWhat happens if I want to use the public transport bus service and it is full?\nIt is a parent/guardian\u2019s responsibility to ensure that students arrive at school on time and leave after school closes.\nThe option to take public transport is taken on the understanding that the service may be full and waiting may be required.\nPublic transport is especially busy on rainy days and when there is inclement weather.\nParents/guardians must ensure that students travel plans are made to accommodate possible\nDiscovery College will not accept as an excuse for lateness that public transport services were\nShould students be accompanied to and from school if they are using public transport?\nThis is a decision that each parent/guardian must make.\nPlease note, however, that Discovery College and Discovery College PTA bear no responsibility for the safety of students getting to and from school other than through transport services directly organised by Discovery College or Discovery College PTA.\nWalking, Cycling, Scootering and similar\nCan students living in Discovery Bay walk to and from school?\nYes, Discovery College actively encourages this.

        "raw_content": "10 Things Successful Expats Do\nHome/Expat Thoughts/10 Things Successful Expats Do\nAfter 12 years as an expatriate in Somalia, Kenya, and primarily Djibouti, I have seen expatriates come and go, thrive and struggle, engage in the community and hunker down behind high walls. Over time I have noticed some patterns, things that thriving expats tend to do, or not do. Could be here, could be in other countries.\nThey don\u2019t complain. Djibouti is one of the hottest, driest countries on the planet. Temperatures can soar over 120 degrees in the summer and less than six inches of rain falls per year. With 60% unemployment, poverty is rampant. Garbage has almost no place to go and lies in heaping, smoking piles in the center of neighborhoods.\nThis list simply shows that there is plenty to complain about in Djibouti. However. There is plenty to complain about in every country. What marks the successful expat in Djibouti is that they don\u2019t complain. Not because they don\u2019t see the challenging aspects but because they make a conscious choice to focus on something else. They see the mountain peaks over the piles of garbage. They see the generosity of a community helping each other survive and thrive.\nThey learn a little language. Doesn\u2019t have to be a lot. But why not learn some greetings, some leave takings, how are you, what\u2019s your name\u2026? It simply shows respect and interest in the local environment, a willingness to invest some time and energy and an acknowledgement that this expat is open to being a foreigner, open to new experiences.\nThey aren\u2019t easily intimidated by the unknown. This is evident by their willingness to learn a few words in the local language. It is also evident by their willingness to ask questions and cultivate curiosity. They aren\u2019t afraid of the market or the bus or the food they don\u2019t recognize.\nThey work hard and do their jobs well. Successful expats aren\u2019t tourists. They understand their role in the community, whether it is as a businessperson or as a development worker (and development workers have taken the time to understand what is actually needed/desired before imposing their own ideas), and they strive to do this work in ways that make sense in the local context.\nThey stop working and enjoy the country. Successful expats are able to act like tourists from time to time. They vacation in country and enjoy exploring the place in which they have landed.\nThey adapt and adopt local customs. They wave a local flag on independence day or develop a craving for baguettes directly related to the honking of the breadman\u2019s horn when he turns down their street. They learn to eat with their right hand only and appreciate the ability to drive on either side of the street or to stop right outside the rotisserie chicken stand, not get out of the car, and purchase the chicken. Kind of like a drive-thru but with a conversation with the chicken man that includes inquiring after his twins and his health and his work.\nThey are authentic and maintain their own customs. They still celebrate their own independence day. They still eat turkey (if they can find one and if they are American) on Thanksgiving. They don\u2019t pretend to be someone they aren\u2019t but they don\u2019t pretend that they still live in their passport country. They are expert chameleons and even enjoy this ability to transform multiple times in a single day.\nThey develop friendships with the local community. Maybe the breadman, maybe the chicken man, maybe the neighbor of the cashier or the fellow jogger or the coworker. These people usher the expat into the local context and deepen the expat\u2019s understanding of it.\nThey develop friendships with the expat community. The expat community is a great resource (turkeys?!) and can be a fascinating mix of people from all over the world. There are stories, unique perspectives, same-aged children who understand what it is like to be a Third Culture Kid, and people who share your passion for American football or obscure novels.\nThey have an adventurous spirit, even if they have to force it. I don\u2019t think I have a naturally adventurous spirit and often have to force it. But I certainly married an adventurous spirit and since that makes living abroad so much more interesting, I go with it. Try that strange food, use that language that feels so awkward on your tongue, go to the local wedding, climb down into the volcano.\nThere are so many possible suggestions for how to thrive while living abroad. These are just a few things I have observed and experienced and been stretched into.\nHow about you? How have you been able to successfully live abroad?\nBy Rachel Pieh Jones|October 20th, 2015|Categories: Expat Thoughts|Tags: expatriate, living abroad, third culture kids|21 Comments\nEvelyn October 20, 2015 at 1:02 pm\t- Reply\nGreat article.

You\u2019re a great writer!\nThanks for leaving a comment now and for reading along, Deb! :O)\nLeslie October 20, 2015 at 7:26 pm\t- Reply\nRachel, Thank you for writing\u2026its hard to even realize that you do these things a lot of the time, subconsciously! And yes I relate to the forced adventurous spirit at times, hubby has it \u2013 we go with it! Hope to embark on a journey with YWAM soon\u2026our 3 kids (we all do) need some team, some friends, some community with missions. I think its what God is leading our family in. We\u2019ve done missions in and our of Mexico for about 8 years\u2026.but i think its time to fly!\nTrue, true, so much of it is unconscious.\nSusan McCumber October 20, 2015 at 10:06 pm\t- Reply\nCool! We\u2019ve done all these things! Part of why we made it for one year, so far, in Honduras! There we many days I didn\u2019t think I would, or even want to, make it. But we persevered through by the grace God! Great article.\nI still have those days too, when I\u2019m not sure I will or want to make it here. But then something happens or something changes or I just wait\u2026and yes, grace comes in.\nJackie thulin October 20, 2015 at 10:39 pm\t- Reply\nI am going to print this blog out and carry it with me Rachel. It helps me know how to pray for you and my own kids. But it also helps me know how to live in my own city, because the city I live in has become very international. I meet people from all over every day, and it has become my purpose to make them feel like they are not strangers after all.\nWould you be willing to help me learn some more Somali? Is there an online resource? Duolingo and such sites do not have it yet.\nLove to read what you write, it is always challenging and thought provoking.\nGreat idea Jackie! You know one of the best books I\u2019ve found is called Colloquial Somali, it is by Martin Orwin and way back when I bought it, it came with cassette tapes. I think now if comes with downloadable stuff or CDs maybe, so you can listen. I\u2019m not sure about online resources\u2026I also think the Mpls public activities system offers a beginner class, or at least I\u2019ve heard that and I took one, but again, that was years ago. Let me know if either of those things are helpful or not and I\u2019ll see what else I can come up with from here!\nAnna October 21, 2015 at 12:44 am\t- Reply\nGreat list. \ud83d\ude42 I don\u2019t think I have an adventurous spirit either, but I married someone who does.\nHurrah for great husbands!\nReading your blog about ex-pat life in Djibouti makes my ex-pat life is Switzerland look easy, even though I went through all the adjustments, just like you had to. I am ever so grateful to the ex-pats and locals I have met in CH. Just one example, book Club in English in Switzerland, with a dozen differently nationalities was incredible, discussing the novel from so many different world views. They love to read in my language, English.\nHaving moved back to the states last month permanently, I find I must take heed in all your suggestions for ex-pat life, especially, \u2018don\u2019t complain.\u2019 After 16 years abroad, I don\u2019t recognize America and parts of it are daunting. I feel foreign in my own country and don\u2019t know the ways of the culture anymore. Not complaining, just saying\u2026\u2026\u2026. One day at a time.\nWhat a good word about readjusting back to our home countries and needing to implement these same things. Part of me can\u2019t wait for that day (on bad days here!) and part of me is dreading it. I hope your adjustment goes well and that you\u2019re able to enjoy, even, being a \u2018foreigner\u2019 in the US.\nAnn Marie Ackermann October 21, 2015 at 3:10 pm\t- Reply\nThe ability to laugh at your self makes all the difference in the world. Because if you live in a foreign country, you are bound to make LOTS of mistakes!\nYesyes! That should totally be on the list. So important to laugh at yourself and even to be willing to let others laugh at you.\nMarilyn Gardner October 22, 2015 at 12:34 pm\t- Reply\nSo good Rachel! So applies to ATCKs as well!\nAbby October 28, 2015 at 2:32 am\t- Reply\nThanks so much for this post. We\u2019ve just returned to the US after seven years in Central Asia, and this post was like fresh air. The same things I learned to do overseas I need to do again \u201cback home\u201d \u2013 treating my life here like another adventure. It\u2019s sort of thrown me for a loop how much I need to adjust to something I was so familiar with not so long ago. But this post is a good reminder and a good place to start.\nHolly Newman November 6, 2015 at 3:52 pm\t- Reply\nReading this makes me feel good because I think we lived successfully as expats for 6 years in Singapore in the 80\u2019s without a smidge of training or input. We flew by the seat of our pants to meet a need that emerged suddenly and by God\u2019s grace landed on our feet overall, though perhaps not everyday. Thanks for your ability to enumerate, explain, and generally peel back the layers to see what makes things work (or not).\nCharlene December 15, 2015 at 2:28 pm\t- Reply\nWe have lived on Victoria Island which is part of Lagos, Nigeria for four and a half years because of my husband\u2019s employment in oil/gas industry and are originally from Houston, Texas area in the USA. My four boys seem to have adjusted fine to living overseas as this is our first overseas assignment. My older two twin boys aged 14 years old attend a UK curriculum international school because one of them has a mild learning disability and the school has a special education program. My younger two twin boys aged 12 years old attend the American International School which they enjoy. The American International School has no special education program which one of my older two boys needs to be successful in school academically and socially. All four boys are involved in Boy Scouts of America here through the American International School. My husband enjoys his employment in his assignment here which is a great opportunity for his career. I do some part time telecommute law practice on my computer which is related to the work that I practiced while we lived in the USA. I also have found some volunteer projects to become involved which is related to the work that I used to do before we relocated to Nigeria. I have tried to get to know the other expat spouses and mothers here. I continue to attempt to get involved in spouse activities like book club, quilting classes, Bible study and The American Women\u2019s Club activities. I also have found yoga and pilates classes which I enjoy. We have really enjoyed traveling to Europe and parts of Africa during holiday breaks from school and then go back to the USA during the summers while we live overseas. During the past four and a half years, I have enjoyed attending a couple law conferences and an international American Women\u2019s Club conference all in Europe and have attended a yoga retreat in Crete. I have tried to make the most of this overseas experience as possible for my family and for me. My husband says that we will, most likely, be living here in Lagos one more year and then be relocated.",

        "title": "Interview with Martin van Creveld by Sonshi.com",
        "raw_content": "Interview with Martin van Creveld\nBy Sonshi.com\nOriginal URL: http://www.sonshi.com/vancreveld.html\nRepublished with permission of Sonshi.com\nWhen you talk about military history and strategy, you can't help but cite Dr. Martin van Creveld, author of such notable works as The Transformation of War and Supplying War: Logistics from Wallenstein to Patton. He has written 17 books so far and is a professor at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem, where he has been teaching since 1971.\nAccording to Dr. Chet Richards, van Creveld's Fighting Power was among the late Col. John Boyd's favorites. Any book worthy of John Boyd's attention is worthy enough for any serious student of strategy.\nHis book The Transformation of War tells us of fourth generation warfare (4GW) \u2013 not the term he used but that\u2019s what it is. Richards wrote, \"Van Creveld has seen the future, and you won't like it: It's non-trinitarian, non-Clausewitzian, and probably not winnable by organized state armies.\" In other words, more like the world Sun Tzu competed in. Martin van Creveld, then, is not only a foremost thinker of warfare's history but also of its future.\nAs you will see in our interview with him, he did not mince words with us. And we wouldn't want it any other way. When we informed him of a news article about how Bush officials bristle at the suggestion the war in Iraq looks like Vietnam, he replied, \"Well, let them do some bristling. These people should be impeached, tried and punished for misleading the American people into a senseless war. They can then spend their time in prison reading Clausewitz and Sun Tzu.\" Whether you agree or disagree, Martin van Creveld's words have substance and are not mere conjecture. Dismiss them at our nation's peril.\nTo read more about Dr. van Creveld and his works, go to Google's scholar feature. Enjoy the interview!\nSonshi.com: In your book The Art of War: War and Military Thought, you stated Sun Tzu\u2019s The Art of War is \u201cthe best work on war ever.\u201d This is a distinct compliment to Sun Tzu considering your vast knowledge and analyses of history\u2019s works on warfare, from von Buelow to Jomini to Clausewitz, would you mind sharing your thoughts about Sun Tzu and what distinguishes him from other military writers?\nvan Creveld: Let me start by saying that Sun Tzu does not need my praise. His work has lived for over two thousand years, and will surely live for another two thousand without any help from me.\nTo my mind, what sets Sun Tzu apart are the following three qualities.\nFirst, like Clausewitz's On War, The Art of War is not a cookbook. It does not focus on telling readers how to make war, but provides an entire philosophy. By so doing, it raises itself above the momentary political, economic, social, technological, and cultural circumstances under which it was written. It creates a framework for thought that may be used by anyone out to understand or wage war, at any time, at any place.\nSecond, unlike On War, The Art of War is a Daoist text. The significance of this is that Sun Tzu sees war not as a means to an end, let alone as a positive good, but as a necessary evil. While fully aware of the vital role war plays in human affairs and prepared to do whatever it takes to win, he never allows the reader to forget what a horrible business it is. This in turn results in The Art of War being pervaded by a deep humanity which On War, precisely because it treats war as a means to an end, does not display.\nThird, whereas On War is a weighty philosophical treatise The Art of War is at the same time a work of art; in this respect it resembles Lao Tzu as well as Plato. I am no Chinese scholar, but those who are tell me that each word rings like a bell. To some extent, this quality comes through even in translation.\nSonshi.com: You have lectured or taught at virtually every strategic institute in the Western world, including the US Naval War College, and have already written 17 books. What first got you interested in writing and teaching about military history and strategy, and what keeps you continuing to do so?\nvan Creveld: For an answer, look up the introduction to Plato's Republic. Here, Socrates says that the imaginary city he and his interlocutors are about to construct will act like a magnifying mirror for looking into the human soul. With war, things are similar. More than any other human activity, war subjects men\u2014both as individuals and in large groups\u2014to the most extreme conditions. By so doing it brings out the human soul in all its baseness and all its glory.\nSonshi.com: It has been said there are two major camps in the US military leadership: Those who follow the principles of Clausewitz and those who follow the principles of Sun Tzu. Do you agree in general? If so, which of the two ideas do you think will apply more in future wars? If not, what doctrines or sets of principles do you see the US military leadership following?\nvan Creveld: I doubt whether the U.S military leadership has followed either Clausewitz or Sun Tzu, or else it would hardly have gotten itself involved in an unwinnable war in Iraq.\nIn the future as in the past, both Clausewitz and Sun Tzu will undoubtedly have a lot to offer. As to the U.S, I do not see that it follows any particular set of principles except hypocrisy: meaning, the heart-felt need to dress up its extraordinary hunger for power with fine-sounding phrases about freedom, democracy, women's rights, etc.\nSonshi.com: You believe the current US involvement in Iraq will end up like the Vietnam War. What are the major parallels? In a more philosophical sense, why do we as human beings do not tend to learn from our history and past mistakes, especially in a serious matter as warfare?\nvan Creveld: Both Iraq and Vietnam are, to use the terminology I developed in The Transformation of War, non-trinitarian conflicts. Experience shows that almost all countries that tried to fight such wars from, let us say, 1941 on, have lost, as did the U.S itself in both Vietnam and Somalia. Why should the war in Iraq end up differently?\nConcerning the second question, you really should ask Mr. Bush. According to Carl Woodward's Bush at War, which has many verbatim reports of the decision- making process that led to Iraq, Bush, repeatedly referred to Vietnam, adding that \"I am not stupid\". Why, assuming the reports are correct, he nevertheless decided to go to war escapes me and will no doubt preoccupy historians to come.\nSonshi.com: You recently wrote a book about who many consider as Israel\u2019s greatest leader, Moshe Dayan. From your research, what are the main attributes that made him exceptional, and how can current and future leaders learn from how he operated?\nvan Creveld: Dayan's strongest suits as a military leader were probably as follows. First, there was his known courage, which caused men to follow him and enabled him to demand the supreme sacrifice of them. Second, he had an in-depth, almost intuitive, understanding of the relationship between politics and war unusual in military men. Third, he possessed a certain cunning, disguised as frankness, that caused him to always look for ways to outwit the enemy. Since Israel in his time was always fighting enemies who were larger and stronger than itself, all three qualities were absolutely vital.\nSonshi.com: We have been hearing a lot about China (the origin of Sun Tzu and written military thought) and its economic rise in the last 20 years. What do you think about their military program? Should we be concerned about it?\nvan Creveld: Assuming China does not become destabilized and continues to grow, it will no doubt develop a military program in proportion to its resources. That said, one should add that, historically speaking, China has been inward-looking. Unlike the U.S. and the former U.S.S.R, it has never sought to make the rest of the world share the blessings of its own ideology. Nor does it have a particularly bad record of military aggression.\nThese facts give rise to cautious optimism. I do hope that, working together, China and the U.S. can avoid a second Cold War. That means neither taking the Chinese program lightly nor exaggerating it, but finding ways to minimize competition and cooperate instead.\nSonshi.com: In your professional opinion, do you think wars will be with us for another thousand years? If so, what do you think are the consequences, and is there anything you think we can do as a civilization to curb or mitigate these deadly conflicts?\nvan Creveld: I must say I dislike your references to my \"vast knowledge\" and \"professional opinion\". They are beside the point.\nI think that war, i.e. politically-organized armed conflict, is part of human nature; recent observations have even confirmed the existence of something very like it among chimpanzees. Therefore it is almost certainly going to be with us as long as humanity itself lasts.\nAs history since Hiroshima shows, the best, perhaps the only, way to curb war is to deter it with such overwhelming force as to turn it from a struggle into suicide. The best way to mitigate it is to use all possible means to bring it to a speedy end. I think both Clausewitz and Sun Tzu would agree on these points.",

        "raw_content": "The kids and I are working on expanding the list of beaches that we go to this summer. I had heard good things about Rexhame Beach in Marshfield so we headed there on Monday to check it out. We had a great day and will most likely be heading back. Here is my take on the beach -\nPlenty of parking - You do have to pay for it though ($10/weekdays and $15/weekends). I'll gladly pay it though to not have to deal with finding parking and walking forever with the kids and all our gear. The walk from the parking lot to the actual sand where you sit is not too far.\nFood and Drinks Available - We didn't take advantage of it but they do have a snack shack that sells typical beach food, drinks, snacks, ice cream, etc.\nBathrooms - They have real bathrooms located in the parking lot as well as portapotties located at the beginning of the walk ways to the beach. If you're like my family you'll frequent both of them multiple times. The real bathrooms do only have 2 stalls so they're small but clean.\nNo Showers - They don't have a shower area to rinse sand off (unless I just totally missed it and someone please correct me). I just brushed the kids off and changed them in the parking lot so it wasn't a huge deal for us.\nPro or Con? You Decide.\nRocks - The beach is rocky both on the beach and in the water. We wore our shoes most of the time and it wasn't an issue for us. The kids also enjoyed looking through and collecting the rocks.\nLots of rocks to explore\nLocation - Marshfield is not super convenient for me personally to get to. We would have stayed longer but I left at 3:15 to avoid traffic. For us it's route 3, to 93, to 95 which frequently is a nightmare. We hit some stop and go traffic on the trip back so I'm glad we left when we did. The boys were passed out anyway so they didn't care.\nCan you find Henry?\nA girl could get used to life at the beach\nWhat's your favorite local beach?",

It\u2019s cheap, it\u2019s dirty, the color is awful, and it\u2019s just way too big for the space. I have a strong dislike for large tiles in small spaces. We\u2019ve been putting off this little job for years now, but I think we\u2019re finally ready to do the demo work and start prepping the floor for new tile!\nThis is what we picked out. I\u2019m not sure if there\u2019s a name for this pattern\u2014it\u2019s almost a basket-weave, but not quite. It looks like marble, but it\u2019s actually some sort of cultured material. I like that it looks old-ish, but not fakey old-ish. And it\u2019s graphic. I like graphic. It\u2019s also pretty inexpensive (Home Depot! In stock!), so we should be able to come in at around $200 for this entire project.\nWe\u2019re planning to use a very dark gray or black grout. The display at HD used a cream-colored grout, which made the tile look sort of faux-Tuscan (which is decidedly not my thing). I\u2019m excited. This is going to look great.

Just wondering, have you considered not demo-ing? It looks like with those baseboards and the marble\u2026 um, what do you call those things again\u2026 that maybe it would be easier to just tile over the existing tiles.\nI don\u2019t know? I am facing the same issue in my bathroom right now. My contractor says tile over, but it also looks like that has happened already a couple of times, but then I think with ten foot ceilings, what is another quarter or half inch to the floor\u2026 of course, I am just stepping up a bit and into my bathroom, walking across an entryway may be different.\nI am sure it will look great no matter what you do. Best of luck finishing it \u2013 and surviving the heat.\nReply\tKerry @ just-you-wait June 24, 2010 at 8:43 pm\nThat tile is going to look amazing!!

I would love to see a close-up of the tile so I could really get a sense of it.\n@jd: I\u2019m not a fan of tiling over tile. You really never know what could be going on underneath (especially in a bathroom!), and laying down tile is no small job. I really think it\u2019s worth taking the time to demo properly, make sure the subfloor is up to par, and just as importantly, assuring that the underlayment is perfectly flat and stable. Tile will fail if the underlayment isn\u2019t right \u2014 whether it\u2019s cracked grout, lifting tiles, or cracking tiles. I\u2019d really rather not have something like that happen.\nIt\u2019s not a rug, after all. \ud83d\ude09 It\u2019s worth doing the demo work!\n@Fiona: Wish granted!

        "raw_content": "Here are pictures from A-Kon. I'll talk more about it later.\nCritter, Stage 2\nI will soon start constructing the new version of the critter. Right now I am in the R&D phase. I have the following goals for this version:\nMore useful drive system. I'll be using a 2-wheel differential drive (instead of 4) with one or possibly two casters. Due to my inability to locate a suitable gearhead motor/wheel/encoder combination that is also reasonably priced, I will likely construct a gearbox, which will be a royal pain, but will solve most of my problems.\nA sonar & IR rangefinder boom that will be fixed to a servo and able to construct a map of the local area and localize itself within it.\nConstructed out of more permanant materials. No wood this time. :)\nA more rugged frame and better collision avoidance/detection.\nAbility to dock to recharge SOMEHOW.\nMore efficient power supply for the onboard electronics.\nIn addition, I will design the frame to be less topheavy, so the batteries sit as low as possible. I'm also designing this to be able to handle impacts gracefully, although I'm hopeful that impacts can be all but avoided.\nThe issues I'm currently researching are as follows:\nSearching for a GOOD gearbox construction tutorial. I understand the mechanics of building one, and I'm confident I can do it, but I'm not sure if I can do it well, and I'd rather have a minimal number of false starts. I would consider using a prebuilt gearbox that satisfies all of my needs. However, keep in mind, this robot will weigh up to 15 pounds when completed, so anything developed for a mini robot (which is what most of the available stuff is), isn't going to work. I'm also not building something as big as a battlebot, so most of what's available for those applications isn't going to work either. It's also far too expensive.\nSearching for a good supplier of gears. Something with a lot of selection and cheap. I'm going with nylon gears for this stage of the project. Also going to need motors, wheels and shafts, although when I'm not worrying about how to integrate a gearbox and encoder, I have many more options available. The wheels I have on the critter now are nice and would probably work if I bought some more of them. They're 4\" in diameter and made of solid hard rubber. However, I'm going to need to find some wheel hubs that have some method of attaching the wheel to the shaft without using superglue or a cold welding compound like I used on the current critter.\nI need a material to build the frame out of that is VERY sturdy, but also light, and preferably not metal, at least not entirely. Some type of thick plexiglass would be ideal, provided a 10-12\" span can support 15 pounds of weight without warping.\nFor all of the materials, I would LIKE to be able to find a reasonably local supplier (DFW area). Not absolutely necessary, but it would make my life easier when I'm not entirely sure of what I need.\nRIP Anabelle-Bob. 12/1994 - 5/22/2010\nInventory my Stuff\nThat's right, I'm going to inventory my stuff. ALL of my stuff. Well, at least the electronic stuff. This is not to be confused by the grocery inventory that has been displayed, unchanged, for years on the site. This will be a meticulous, public, and photographic inventory of all of the computers, gadgets, components, and parts that I own. There are a few reasons for doing this.\nFirst off, it'll probably be a neat project. The object of the day pages that I used to update years ago were somewhat useful in a bizzare and pointless way, but that tended to focus only on things of unique interest, and not necessary the mundane. Yet mundane things need love too. This will expand on that general concept, with a lot more things, and somewhat less storytelling. However, it will also provide a backdrop to discuss what each object does, how it works, how it's used, and some general applications, as well as links to other pages on the site which are relevent to that particular part.\nSecondly, I don't always know what I have. Anytime I start some new project, I feel compelled to purchase all required components, since I don't know what I might already have. This way, I'll be able to quickly identify what parts I already have, and more importantly where to find them. And that leads to the third issue.\nThe third issue, I know I have some stuff, but I don't know where it is. For instance, I have a symbol barcode scanner. I have projects I would like to use it with. I've seen it a few times since I moved here, but I simply can't find it anytime I'm actually looking for it. By going through EVERYTHING I have, I should stumble across it eventually, and at that point, I'll have it stored in an easy to retrieve location for future reference. There's also a camcorder that I modified to control the zoom remotely and I'd really like to find that again too.\nA fourth reason, is that I'm constantly adding new stuff. My dad had a lot of stuff. Some of it useful, some of it junk, and I'm slowly moving a lot of it over here, and I'd like to have an inventory I can integrate this new stuff into, along with places I can store all of it.\nAnd finally, if nothing else, it gets all of my stuff organized and cleared off the desks, so I can work. I have a bunch of new projects I'm about to start on, and both knowing where everything is AND having a clear space to work will be important.\nThe good news is, I HAVE made some effort in recent years to at least get similar and related components grouped together into bins. Power cables are all in one bin, networking parts in another, video cables and assorted devices in another, etc. For the most part, if I know I have something, I have a pretty good idea of where to locate it... usually.\nI will likely enter everything into a spreadsheet since it'll be easy to enter and I can export it later to a more convienent format later. I'll also be taking pictures as I go. Descriptions and other information I'll add later after I create individual pages for each component.\n5 Pounds, 5 oz.\nAll done now.\nWater Broke.\nThe Second Server\nAs most of you don't know, I have two servers for the site. Only one of them is actually used. Yes, I pay full price for a second server that really isn't doing anything except acting as a backup for the first. It's not even a functional backup. It's just a hosted server that I copy all of the data from the site over to on a reasonably frequent basis. I purchased it the same week that my hosting provider had a transformer fire in their facility that ended up shutting me down for 6 days. Since I have paying customers which use the server for email and other things, I decided to always keep an active, functional backup at a separate location, which I could switch over to in a matter of minutes if I absolutely had to. Since then I have also done some work on the site to loadbalance it, such that it can always operate on multiple servers, and seamlessly handle any one of them dying without any impact to the users.\nOf course, it costs money. Quite a bit of money each month that lets face it, in all honesty, doesn't really justify its existance. And while loadbalancing would be great for those few times that the site is REALLY getting slammed, the rewriting of most of the server applications has cut way down on the need for peak traffic balancing as well. It's nice to be ready to handle a triple slashdot effect, but it really doesn't occur frequently enough to justify the preparedness, and if I really got desparate, I could purchase a server and have it set up in a matter of hours anyway. If not for a long term, sustained pommelling, whatever do I need it for?\nI have also decided to rethink my plans for the documentation project. I've got this lofty, web 2.0-esque idea on how I want it presented, linked to and from, etc. How new articles and documents get posted as news in a blog format, but get archived into a book type format, and have full site searching, automatic linking, banner suggestions, etc. It's all great, and I really think it'll look and work wonderfully. It's also taking a damn long time to implement. In the end, what difference does it make? I just want nice, organized, sharp looking pages that are appealing to those who are searching for them, and a profitable place for advertising.\nMy ultimate problem is that I've spent a lot of time focusing on how I can make this a functional system for people other than myself. No, I have no intention of marketing this as a tool for others to use in thier own documentation projects. This is all for this site. And I planned on being the only one writing documents anyway, with the exception of my wife. I wouldn't recruit anyone else, since my goal for a lot of this is to generate a bit of advertising revenue, and I can't really justify to anyone (including myself) having other people do work just so I can get paid for it. It also wasn't going to likely speed things up in the development process, although I somewhat deluded myself that it might be the case. But it won't. I know this now, and I've always known it. Any issue regarding the speed of development will 99% be involved with research and rhetoric. Layout, image manipulation, and indexing are activities that take so little time, relatively speaking, that I could do it manually almost as quickly as I would have something do it automatically, and it wouldn't require me to spend another year working on a system to do it to my satisfaction.\nIn any event, I'm going to go back to cranking out documents without any concern for the long term implications. My wife has her blog, and I will just have her write there and steal from it anything that would fit well into an independent document. We ARE a team afterall, no reason we can't work together on this. As new documents are generated, they will be referenced in the appropriate index file (the howto page, or some other page depending on their subject matter). I will first spruce up all of the documents I've historically had on this site, and finish all of the ones I've created a stub for but never done anything with. Then I will start on the long list of other documents I've been meaning to write for ages but never got started on.\nAnd so, to begin, I've completed the Audio Streaming Howto. Enjoy!\nI Love Reloading Windows\nMalware is my friend. My very bestest bestest friend. This all started a few days ago. I had managed to get some spyware on my main workstation... which just happens to run XP. This doesn't normally happen to me. Anytime I have to do something that I feel is suspect, I run it in a virtualbox window. Worst case, if I fudge up my virtual system, it takes me as long as it takes to copy a 100 meg file and the problem is solved. Well, somehow one slipped through the cracks. I'm not even entirely sure HOW I managed this, but I did. Lucky me.\nThe first infection wasn't a big deal. I got it fixed, but somewhere in the process of fixing everything, I ended up being forced into a reboot that the system never woke up from. XP simply refused to boot. No regular mode, no safe mode, no nothing. Turns out, there's a spare drive in this machine. I have NO idea why there's a spare drive in this machine, and I'd never used it, but it came in handy. I loaded the factory disk on the new drive, comfortable in the fact that I'd be able to move over all my old files once the reload was complete. For the most part, this was true.\nNow the fun part. I have this one directory in which I keep install exe's and isos of all of the programs I use on my windows boxen. It's MOSTLY up to date, and whenever I start using a new program, I try to remember to copy it into that directory, but occasionally I forget and programs and iso's end up lurking in various directories all over my network. So I install all the easy stuff, and then I'm looking for one specific application. Well, I find the iso for it...or I think I do actually. I load it up in Alcohol 120% so I can install it... and... oops. That wasn't the iso I was looking for. In fact, I don't even now know what that iso was, or where I got it, or when I got it. The autorun on that iso launched a NASTY little trojan. Of course, I usually disable autorun on EVERYTHING, for almost exactly this reason. I want to view the contents of the disk before I go blindly running things, and if it looks suspicious, and I can assure you in this case it would have, then I would either discard it, or at least first install it in a safe environment. However, autorun made my choice for me.\nSo after about 5 hours of attempting to remove it and all the extra crap it kept installing, I gave up and decided to just reload the system... again. So now I have original applications, the old installed data, the slightly less old installed data from the short lived installation, and now my newest one. So far, this time, I've managed to remain malware free. Maybe I'll at least get everyting installed before I get hit again THIS time.\nOn a lighter note, I was featured on the Blondell & Leggett Show. Once archives of the show are available, I'll be linking to it.\nAnd no, I have not yet managed to get my Xmas decorations down. I'll do it this week. I promise! Really! I'm almost certainly positive I'll get to it this weekend.. or very shortly thereafter. At least sometime before April.. or June. Really! :)\nXmas is Over\nAnd we did well. I think Kiko had the best haul, with her new DS, Ipod Touch, and ... oh yeah. BED.\nThat was several days of work, but she really likes it. Still needs a paint job and some cabinet doors, but it's good to go otherwise.\nI finally did get a Xmas display set up this year, and although I was hoping for more, at least I did something. I will keep it up until early January. Not sure of the status of that room afterwards, but if it's still cammed, I will set up a couple lights in there to continue to entertain you. Next year, I hope to have an even larger indoor AND outdoor display, and hopefully get the outdoor one cammed as well. Maybe even some music syncing... all internet controlled of course.",

        "raw_content": "It may come as a surprise to you that total joint replacement patients are encouraged to get up and start moving around as soon as possible after surgery.\nWhen you are medically stable, the physical therapist will recommend certain exercises for the affected joint. Physical therapy is a key part of recovery. The more quickly a joint replacement patient gets moving again, it is more likely that he or she will regain independence just as quickly. To ease the discomfort the activity will initially cause, pain medication is recommended prior to therapy. In addition, the physical therapist will discuss plans for rehabilitation following hospital discharge. Depending on your limitations, an occupational therapist may provide instruction on how to use certain devices that assist in performing daily activities, such as putting on socks, reaching for household items, and bathing. A case manager will discuss plans for your return home and will ensure that you have all the necessary help to support a successful recovery. If needed, the case manager can help arrange for you to have a home therapist.\nThe success of your joint replacement will strongly depend on how well you follow your orthopaedic surgeon\u2019s instructions. As time passes, you will potentially experience a dramatic reduction in joint pain and a significant improvement in your ability to participate in daily activities. Remember, however, that joint replacement surgery will not allow you to do more than you could before you developed your joint problems!",

        "title": "Gurney's Pitta in Thailand | DocMartin",
        "raw_content": "Just five years ago [article written early 1990s], it seemed the Gurney's Pitta was slipping quietly into oblivion, if it was not already extinct. The last documented sighting was in 1952, since when there had only been sporadic reports of Gurney's Pittas entering the wild bird trade. Its plight had attracted none of the brouhaha that has drawn attention to the likes of Giant Pandas, Black Rhinos and Philippines Eagles, and few would have even noticed that this once common bird of southern Thailand had gone.\nBut in 1986 the Gurney's Pitta was rediscovered, and it is now protected and something of a celebrity in Krabi province, home to the bird's last stronghold. A restaurant and a petrol station in Khlong Thom each have a giant model Gurney's Pitta--the petrol station's is now in need of repair--and a road sign in the town points to `Gurney's Pitta, 18 kilometres'.\nThe road does not lead directly to an encounter with the pitta, which is a shy denizen of forest undergrowth, but to the Khao Pra Bang Khran Non-hunting Area. This was one of four potential Gurney's Pitta sites identified by two ornithologists based at Mahidol University, Phil Round and Uthai Treesucon, who found the bird during a visit in June 1986.\nThey had chosen Khao Pra Bang Khran after some detective work by Round, then about to start work on a database on Thai birds and animals: `I had worked out long before that probably no living ornithologist had seen Gurney's Pitta in the field. It was first recorded in Burma about 112 years ago, but most records this century were from peninsula Thailand, and it was apparently quite common.\n`Like the other 11 species of pittas in Thailand, it is a forest bird, and deforestation is the reason for its decline. But while some pittas could still be found on the peninsula, in hill forest, there were no records of Gurney's Pitta since a bird was collected in 1952. So I decided it might be a lowland species. Lowland forest has been cleared in many areas, but visits we'd made to surviving fragments showed they can hold good numbers of birds which are otherwise rarely found in Thailand. I checked satellite photos, to look for lowland forest, and identified four possible sites, one of which was Khao Pra Bang Khran.\n`At the same time, we were following up rumours of the species in the wild bird trade. We found an illegal dealer in southern Thailand who told us he had received a few, but he wasn't sure where they came from. His supplier told us that the birds were from Khao Pra Bang Khran, and so we first searched the lowland forest here.'\nJust four days after arriving at the forest, Round saw a male Gurney's Pitta. In a scientific paper detailing the find, he describes the event in a rather matter of fact fashion: `... a male Gurney's Pitta flew up off the ground, about 10 m ahead on the trail. The bird was easily recognised by the plump shape and uniformly brown back and wings which contrasted with the blue crown and tail.' In reality, though, he was so excited by the find that `I couldn't hold my binoculars steady.'\nThe next day, Uthai brushed against a palm tree and flushed a female off a nest. The two then made the first ever observations of nesting Gurney's Pittas, though the young disappeared while they visited a bird trapper living nearby. The fate of the young birds is not known: maybe they were eaten by a predator, they could have been taken by people, or maybe they left the nest earlier than Round and Uthai expected.\nDuring this first visit, there was often smoke over the forest as trees were felled and burnt to make way for plantations and fields, and frequent gunshots showed there was a high level of hunting. Round says now `I would never have believed the forest would still be here'. (The three other lowland forests he picked out from the satellite photos have been cleared, before any one could check for Gurney's Pittas.)\nThat the forest is still standing is due in large part to the prompt action of the Royal Forestry Department, which ensured that the forest, and so the Gurney's Pittas, were protected. The area was already protected in theory, as it was national reserve forest, but Wirot Naktae, superintendent of the non-hunting area, says `The government hasn't really enforced the national reserve forest act very effectively, and there can be a free for all, with only legal logging controlled. When I came to work here in 1987, there was a lot of encroachment, often by people who arrived from other provinces.\n`I believed it was important to educate the local people about the forest, and I went to a lot of village meetings, where I explained the problems of clearing forest and hunting wildlife. I said that the forest is the home of the Gurney's Pitta, which is only found in Thailand. People were interested when they knew this is a special bird.'\nThanks to Wirot's efforts, `People in the villages now understand the value of the forest and its wildlife--they say \"If I have the forest, I have water, and can work the fields\".'\nBut talk alone is not sufficient to keep the trees standing--last year, Wirot and his men caught around 50 people for tree felling. Some were landless, but others already owned land elsewhere and were out to make money. `Rich or poor, people grab land,' says Round. `The more land, the more money they can make. People sometimes form teams, and travel several hundred kilometres to go in en masse and clear forest--many people in southern Thailand own land in three or four places. There is a plateau here which was cleared to make way for coffee. You might tend to think that people who clear land in this way are very poor and do so because they haven't any choice, but when we first visited the coffee plantations we found pickup trucks and even a long wheelbase Land Rover. Some of the people are businessmen, and many already own land elsewhere. If you visit at times of the year which are quiet for agriculture, the houses are deserted, as the people have gone to other homes.\n`To some extent, encroachment like this upsets villagers--one problem is that pesticides used on crops enter the watercourses. But there is support and collaboration from some local administrators, who are probably getting money from it.'\nPhairot Suvanakorn, then deputy director general of the Royal Forestry Department, was largely responsible for initiating conservation measures after the pittas were discovered. He is now director general, and Round describes him as the first person in this position who is on the side of conservation. Overseas, high-level support has come from Britain's Prince Philip, who contacted King [Poonapon] to encourage a conservation inititiative.\nThe International Council for Bird Preservation has also stepped in to protect the Gurney's Pitta. In each of the past three years, the organisation has supported surveys and nest protection schemes, and it is now funding a project headed by Round and Uthai. Both local Thais and birdwatchers from overseas have participated in work on the pittas--Lung Beung, the trapper visited when the first nest's chicks disappeared, has joined the project, and proudly wears a t-shirt emblazoned with a Gurney's Pitta. In 1987, one of the villagers helped save the lives of two pittas. While taking part in round-the-clock observations of a nest, he saw a snake climbing the nest tree. He knocked it away, and when it returned 10 minutes later, he shot it with a 12-bore. A chick which had disappeared two days before was found in its stomach, and the two nestlings which remained left the nest successfully the next day.\nThe current project is initially set to last three years, and both Round and Uthai believe more work will be needed to ensure the long-term survival of Gurney's Pitta. From only part-time involvement, often in a coordinating role, they are now working full-time on the project. `Home' for much of the year is one of the huts in Wirot's first headquarters, well removed from life with their families in Bangkok. There is no electricity, and water is piped in from a stream, or is rainwater channeled into a storage jar from one of the roofs. But a sublime pool formed by a forest stream serves for bathing, and trees surrounding the huts are alive with the songs of orioles, babblers and shamas.\nThey have marked around 30 kilometres of trails through the forest, usually following tracks made by villagers on forays after plants, or on illegal hunting trips. These help with studies of the Gurney's Pittas, as well as ensuring visiting birdwatchers can search the area without getting lost.\nBesides monitoring the Gurney's Pittas, Round and Uthai are working on an inventory of the forest's wildlife. To date, 270 species of birds have been recorded from Khao Pra Bang Khran--the highest tally for any area in southern Thailand. Some birds are found throughout the 170 square kilometres of the non-hunting area. Others are more selective--there might be only 20 square kilometres of forest which is suitable for Gurney's Pitta.\nThough elephants were last reported in 1976 and the last tiger is said to have been shot in 1987, there is a good variety of other wildlife. Leopards, Asiatic Wild dogs, Barking Deer, gibbons, various civet cats, flying squirrels and two species of giant squirrels are still to be found, along with Monitor Lizards and butterflies such as the Jungleking.\nA botanist, Dr Chavalit Miyondham, is helping to compile a detailed list of the flora. With Round and Uthai, and a silvaculturist, Dr Suree Bhumibhamon, he is especially interested in the plants which are useful to villagers or, better still, to villagers and wildlife. Dipterocarp trees are currently exploited by local people, though not in the sustainable manner which the conservationists would like. Resin is obtained by making a hole in a tree, burning the side of the tree, and waiting for the resin to accumulate; it can then be sold, as a flammable oil for lighting fires, or to be used to make kindling, as varnish or for corking boats. But there are fears that the trees are being tapped too often, and the repeated burning process has already killed some.\nMuch better is exploitation of the Garnua trees. In late spring, the fruits attract Common Flying Foxes, the largest of Thailand's fruit bats. They do not eat the stones, which fall to the ground and are gathered by villagers and pressed to yield an oil which is used for cooking. The oil currently sells for 20 Baht per bottle, and Round is hoping tests will show it is unsaturated, which could prove a useful selling point.\nFruits of other trees are sold in markets. The Salacca palm yields saleable fruits and is a favourite nest tree for Gurney's Pittas. It grows under the canopies of other trees, and Round is hoping it will be possible to plant Salaccas in nearby rubber plantations, both as a second crop and to maybe increase available nesting sites for the pittas.\nAnother way the forest could benefit local people is through attracting tourists. Already, Khao Pra Bang Khran has become an in destination with birdwatchers, and providing visitors can be regulated it should be possible for villagers to earn money through offering accommodation and food, or guiding tours, without adverse effects on the wildlife. Some of the money from visitors will go to a schools fund started by Round and Uthai, to provide materials and reward academic prowess.\nTo boost support for conservation efforts, the two have begun an education programme which is especially aimed at schoolchildren. The fruits, resins, medicinal plants and other forest products will be prominent in this, since though they are often well known, Round says the villagers more or less take for granted.\nIn the longer term, they plan to re-establish more habitat for Gurney's Pittas. They have a nursery with saplings collected from the forest. These are to be planted in abandoned clearings or patches of damaged forest. Preference will be given to species which can be harvested by people, as well as providing food and shelter to wildlife. Round says one hopeful aspect of the recovery programme is that Gurney's Pitta will nest in regenerating forest, rather than solely in the long established areas. Yet even so, he guesses it might take 30 years to transform a patch of land which has been cleared of vegetation to a home for pittas.\nRound believes there are at most 35 pairs of Gurney's Pittas in Khao Pra Bang Khran. Less than 15 pairs have been found elsewhere in Thailand, and they are scattered, in increasingly isolated fragments of forest. There are probably others in southern Burma, but even last century there were no reports of nesting here, and logging has increased recently, partly as a result of Thai interests. So the bird is on a knife edge, with its survival depending heavily on the protection of the 20 square kilometres of lowland forest at Khao Pra Bang Khran.\nRound and Wirot are encouraged by progress so far, and say they are optimistic about the future. During the past three years, they have seen the area transformed, from a place where the sounds of chainsaws and gunshots were to be heard for much of the day to a reserve which should serve as an outstanding example of forest conservation. And though Round may feel it is a little too well known, the Gurney's Pitta has not quietly disappeared, but has become the focus of a highly-promising recovery programme, with support from people ranging from villagers to royalty.\nGurney's Pitta - BirdLife Species Factsheet - includes discovery in Burma (Myanmar) since I wrote this article; now may be 20,000 pairs.\nGurney's Pitta functionally extinct in Thailand\nJust seen a paper by Phil Round, on Gurney's Pitta becoming extinct in Thailand, due to utterly insubstantial conservation efforts failing to combat habitat loss, maybe even poaching.\nGurney\u2019s Pitta was first described for science in 1875: since which it has taken Thailand 139 years to render the species functionally, if not actually, extinct. Tragically, Gurney\u2019s Pitta no longer has any future in Thailand. We have failed utterly to conserve the species: there can be no second chance. The future of Gurney\u2019s Pitta rests now with Myanmar. The species might yet be saved in that country but we need to recognize the intensity of the threats. A high pace of economic development, and the enthusiasm of Burmese companies, and those from other ASEAN countries, for planting oil-palm is already impacting forest in South Tanintharyi. It is imperative, therefore, that the Myanmar government, aided by international conservation agencies, takes immediate action to safeguard significant areas of the lowland forest habitat of Gurney\u2019s Pitta in that country before it too is cleared. The hope is that Myanmar will learn from Thailand\u2019s mistakes and ensure that Gurney\u2019s Pitta, described by its discoverer Allan Octavian Hume in 1875 as \u201ca really lovely species\u201d, is permitted to have a future in that country.\nYou can download it here; just need to complete some brief info, and can get the pdf:\nGurney's Pitta",

More that 60 physicians and medical students in Colorado signed a letter stating the lawsuit will harm their patients by delaying Medicaid funding and slowing the implementation of the PPACA in their state.\n\u201cThe lawsuits are a distraction from the real work ahead of us to make sure all of our patients have access to affordable, quality health care\u201d, said Dr. Vivek Murthy, President of Doctors for America. \u201cInstead of wasting taxpayer money on politically tainted lawsuits, we need our elected leaders to focus on implementing health reform to ensure our patients get the care they need when they need it.\u201d\nThere are over 790,000 uninsured in Colorado. The new law will finally put health coverage within reach for these Colorado families by prohibiting denial or higher premiums for those with pre-existing conditions, providing subsidies to families and small businesses to purchase insurance, and creating competitive state exchanges where consumers are in control of their health coverage \u2013 not insurance companies.\n\u201cEvery day more patients tell me they can\u2019t come in for health care or get their medicines because they can\u2019t afford or can\u2019t qualify for insurance.

        "raw_content": "The Use of Polyurethanes In Medical Device Applications\nPolyurethanes are commonly used in a number of medical device applications.\n1. What are the potential medical applications for polyurethanes?\nPolyurethanes have applications in catheter and general purpose tubing, hospital bedding, surgical drapes, wound dressings, as well as in a variety of injection molded devices. Their most common use is in short term implants. They are appropriate for a variety of uses where advantages such as cost effectiveness, longevity, toughness and high stress/strain properties are desired.\n2. What is the name of the organization that regulates medical device applications?\nThe United States Food and Drug Administration\u2019s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (called \u201cthe Agency\u201d or \u201cFDA\u201d in the remainder of this pamphlet) regulates medical devices.\n3. Are polyurethanes approved for medical device applications?\nRaw materials, including resins are not approved per se, by FDA. In fact, the great majority of medical devices entering the market today are never actually approved by FDA. Instead, manufacturers must notify the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (510(k) notification) of their own determination that their device is substantially equivalent to a type of medical device which has been on the market since 1976.If the FDA agrees with the manufacturer\u2019s determi-nation of substantial equivalence, marketing may commence. Therefore, the manufacturer\u2019s selection of a raw material or component part is based on its suitability for the intended use of the device, and its potential impact on a substantial equivalence deter-mination. If substantial equivalence is not obtainable, then the device manufacturer must file a PMA (Pre Market Approval) on the new device.\nEven the raw materials and component parts of devices which are subject to premarket approval are not approved individually. FDA will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a device for its intended use, and approvals are granted to the final product based on these considerations.\nAfter a PMA is granted, the substitution of one raw material, or one raw material supplier, will often require prior approval of a supplement to the PMA. Even in these cases, however, the material is not being approved per se; it is the material\u2019s suitability for use in a particular device that is being approved.\n4. Who is responsible for ensuring Medical Device compliance?\nIt is the responsibility of the finished device manu-facturer to make a determination of the suitability of all the component parts and raw materials to be used in the finished product.\n5. What influence does biocompatibility data supplied by material suppliers have on FDA acceptance and/or product liability concerns?\nFDA and device manufacturers are interested in the toxicological characteristics of the raw materials being considered for a device. The importance or desirability of certain toxicological characteristics will necessarily vary based on the intended use of the device.\nThe use of a material to make an implant creates a need for more toxicology data than if the same mate-rial were used for an application that did not involve implantation. If the Agency needs more information on the toxicology of a raw material or component, it will ask the device manufacturer that is seeking approval to provide the information.\nIf a polyurethane supplier already has relevant toxi-cology data about its formulation, it can make that data available for review by the device manufacturer or through the FDA by establishing a Device Master File (MAF). The MAF is maintained as confidential by FDA, and will be reviewed only in conjunction with reviewing a product application that is submitted by a device manufacturer that has been authorized by the owner of the MAF (typically a resin supplier or formulator) to reference it.\n6. Is there anything beyond USP Class VI clearance that material suppliers can obtain? What does USP Class VI acceptance mean with respect to FDA clearance on a medical device?\nEstablishing a USP Class VI rating has very little bearing on final compliance with FDA regulations; it merely states that the product exhibits a very low level of toxicity under the conditions of testing. Historically, this classification had been a standard in the industry to have a resin considered viable as a product for medical device applications. Beyond USP Class VI testing, other standard test methods that are generally accepted are cytotoxicity, hemoly-sis and physio-chemical. FDA also has adopted International Standards Organization (ISO) standard 10993\u2014\u201dBiological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part I\u2014Evaluation and Testing\u201d which for some med-ical device manufacturers has replaced USP Class VI as the standard to have a resin considered viable as a product for medical devices.\n7. What is the definition of \u201cimplant\u201d and what are its consequences for a device categorized as an implant?\n\u201cImplant\u201d is defined as a device that is placed into a surgically or naturally formed cavity of the human body and is intended to remain implanted continu-ously for a period of thirty days or more.\nThe Agency may also use its discretion to deter-mine that devices placed in the body for shorter peri-ods of time are implants [21 C.F.R. part 860.3(d)]. Implants undergo more thorough review by FDA than most devices that are not implants.\nA device that is placed into a surgically or naturally formed cavity of the human body, but which is intended to remain in place continuously for less than 30 days, is not considered to be an \u201cimplant\u201d for regulatory purposes, unless the Commissioner determines otherwise to protect human health.\nSuch devices are often referred to informally as \u201cshort term implants.\u201d\nNext Polyurethane Lining\nPrevious Leather vs. Polyurethane",

        "raw_content": "The New Dimensions of International Terrorism\nby: Stefan Aubrey\nvdf Hochschulverlag AG, 2004\nThe events of September 11, 2001 confronted the United States and the rest of the World with the reality of a new dimension of international terrorism. This new dimension did not start nor end with the attacks against the World Trade Center or the Pentagon, but began in the 1990s.\nThis study examines the new dimension of international terrorism, contrasting it with the classical terrorism, the predominantly left-wing terrorist movements of the 1960s - 1980s in Europe, which were a subset of the bipolar geo-political arena. The author establishes the relationship of radical Islamist movements to the terrorist groups of the new dimension (principally focusing on Al-Qaeda) in providing the motivation for committing catastrophic terrorist acts, looks at the shadowy world of terrorist financing and makes suggestions regarding international counter-terrorist strategies.",

        "raw_content": "Io credo in Ges\u00f9 Cristo Figlio di Dio\nLudovic-Marie Barrielle\nFr. Vallet had founded the Parish Cooperators of Christ the King in 1922 and after his death in 1947 his priestly collaborators carried on his work. The key preacher at the chief house of the Parish Cooperators in France, was Fr. Ludovic Marie Barrielle. When the changes of Vatican II swept through the Church demanding aggiornamento and change at every level, Fr. Barrielle held firm. Fr. Vallet had been clear: nothing must be changed or else all the fruit would be lost. Though Fr. Barrielle himself held firm, the work of the Parish Cooperators gradually died out. Hearing of the work of Archbishop Lefebvre in the 70s, Fr. Barrielle volunteered his services and the Archbishop, in need of experienced priests, accepted.\nMoving to the Society\u2019s chief seminary in Econe, Switzerland, Fr. Barrielle filled perfectly the office of spiritual director. His role was that of the much needed wiser, more experienced and older priest who helped prepare the young seminarians for the difficult task of the priesthood in the modern world. He counseled, encouraged, and taught them the principles of Saint Ignatius. Most importantly, he gave them the 5-Day Spiritual Exercises after the divinely inspired pattern given him by Fr. Vallet.\nOccasionally, when a veteran retreatant would call up for Fr. Barrielle to organize a retreat, Fr. Barrielle would bring along a seminarian and teach him the \"ropes.\" Besides this practical knowledge, in response to the perennial question of the seminarian: \"How will I go about the work of saving souls in this world?\", he wrote two books: Letter to the Priests of Tomorrow, #1 and Letter to the Priests of Tomorrow, #2. In these books Fr. Barrielle laid down precise instructions for the preaching of the 5-Day Retreats.\nWhen Fr. Barrielle died in 1983, he had firmly planted the Ignatian Exercises in the Society of Saint Pius X which at that time numbered a little over 100 priests. Those priests in turn became the \"veterans\" and \"old-timers\" who continue to teach the new recruits the method and efficacy of the Spiritual Exercises. As a general rule, every deacon of the Society of Saint Pius X is required to preach an Ignatian Retreat to ensure his facility in this form of Apostolate before he is dispatched to his mission as a priest.\nTo this day, the 5-Day Retreats are the workhorse of the Society of Saint Pius X in terms of obtaining profound conversions and dedicated soldiers of Jesus Christ. A tradition begun in the Church with Saint Ignatius, adapted to the modern world by Fr. Vallet, handed down to the Society of Saint Pius X by Fr. Barrielle, the Retreats are still available to souls who possess a desire to save their souls and to do something more for Christ.",

        "raw_content": "When making the switch to solar energy, you might end up having to replace the roof on your home before the installation process can begin. There are a couple of different situations that warrant a roof replacement is an absolute necessity. If your roof is in bad shape or the roofing material isn\u2019t capable of withstanding a new solar system, you have no other choice than to replace the roof. Replacing your roof before the solar system is installed is crucial. Beyond being able to take advantage of the 30 percent tax credit for your new solar system, you can also get a credit for the cost of your new roof.\nHaving the roof replaced at the same time as your solar panels are installed will save you a lot of time and hassles. You won\u2019t have to worry about removing the solar panels down the line to get everything installed, which is a huge relief. The type of roofing material you have installed can also impact the installation process. Certain types of roofing materials, such as clay tiles, are extremely fragile and won\u2019t be able to hold the weight of your new solar system. Metal roofs and Spanish tile can also prevent the system from being securely affixed to your roof. It is because of this that these roofs will have to be swapped out. By installing the new roof along with your solar system, you can take advantage of the 10-year warranty.\nIn the event that you don\u2019t want to replace your entire roof, we can always do a partial reroof job for you as well. When that happens, we simply replace the part of the roof where the panels are going to be installed and put in new roofing material. After the panels are installed, you won\u2019t be able to see the new roofing materials at all. This keeps your roof looking the same as it did before, with the exception of the new panels. We want to make sure you get a clean, polished look, while being able to save money each month on your energy bill.\nOne of our specialists can go over your options with you and help you determine what is in the best interest of your home and your new system. We take the time to listen to what it is that you are looking for and work hard to help bring your dreams to life.",

        "raw_content": "The History of Team Cleaning\nThe Clean Age\nHow innovative equipment and ideas made Team Cleaning\u00ae an industry future. Cleaning is as old as dirt. Cleaning tools and strategies, on the other hand, are rapidly evolving. Janitorial closets now showcase state-of-the-art technology in the form of micro-fiber cloths, machines and liquid agents. In the age of innovations, many industry professionals also rely on a science-based cleaning system to improve efficiency and environmental health. The concept of Team Cleaning was introduced over 20 years ago, and has since gained both converts and skeptics across the world. Team Cleaning rethinks long-held traditions and standards to create a process that focuses on cleaning for health with maximum productivity. So where did the idea come from, and how does it work in the real world?\nThe origins of a cleaning movement\nIn the early 1980s, cleaning professionals faced many of the same business challenges they do today. Quality contract cleaners were being out-bid by companies with illegal labor or shoddy practices. Productivity and effectiveness were always top of mind. Larry Shideler, a contract cleaner in Boise, Idaho, began to look at the costs and problems of his daily routine. A building with eight floors assigned to eight different workers required eight complete sets of equipment, and resulted in eight different levels of quality. Shideler wanted to maintain consistent quality while simplifying the work process. He began assigning specialists for certain tasks. One person would clean restrooms in the entire building, another would vacuum, and so on. As he shifted to this new system, he also began to play with an invention in his garage. Working with PVC pipe, multiple filters and a high-powered motor, he created the original lightweight backpack vacuum. The invention dramatically shortened the time it took to clean both carpet and hard floors. Covering an average of 10,000 sq. ft. an hour, his backpack vacuum improved productivity and effectiveness. Shideler\u2019s ideas soon became a phenomenon in the industry. \u201cToday, Team Cleaning is superior to what Larry had in the early 80s, but conceptually it\u2019s not that far off,\u201d says Jim Harris, the president and CEO of Concepts4, a Team Cleaning training company based in Albany, New York. \u201cImprovement came from those who adopted the system. I, and many others, have come to the conclusion that this is the best cleaning system to absorb the most stringent demands for high-performance cleaning that face our industry today.\u201d\nCleaning work can be assigned either by space or by task. In zone cleaning, a worker is given a certain area to clean, and performs all the tasks required in that space. In Team\nCleaning, a worker is given one of four specialties. A light-duty specialist empties trash, captures dust, cleans boards and spot cleans. A vacuum specialist vacuums, repositions furniture, checks the quality of the starter\u2019s work, and turns off lights. A restroom specialist cleans restrooms and fills dispensers. A utility specialist vacuums stairwells, cleans brass, glass, blinds and carpets, and does periodic specialty services as needed. \u201cIt\u2019s not just about speed, it\u2019s about developing a standard for cleaning for health,\u201d says Harris. \u201cIt all starts with a system. So the system drives the quality, not the worker, and quality monitoring and controls are built-in.\u201d In Team Cleaning, the worker is routed through a building on a set time-schedule with specific tasks. The cleanable space is typically divided into four sections, or quads. A specialist performs daily routine cleaning in each quad. So the vacuum specialist, for example, covers high-traffic areas in each room, everyday. Work that needs to be done on a weekly basis, like vacuuming under furniture, is performed in one quad a day. So by the end of four days, all sections are covered. Then, work that should be done monthly, like vacuuming upholstered furniture or the ceiling filter, is done in one quad on the fifth workday, usually Friday. So by the end of the month, all detail work is complete. \u201cUltimately, workers are motivated,\u201d says Harris. \u201cThey know what they\u2019re supposed to do. They know how long it\u2019s going to take. They have the right tools. Then, they can create greater efficiency by modifying the system to work better for a specific environment.\u201d Job cards map out daily work paths and time frames, and help keep specialists and supervisors on track. \u201cJob cards also create feedback loops,\u201d says Harris. \u201cSo workers can offer inspection notes and improvement ideas to managers.\u201d\nImplementing Team Cleaning in the real world\nTeam Cleaning brings new concepts to a long-entrenched practice, and implementing the new system takes a dedicated, educated management and well-informed staff. The biggest hurdle to incorporating Team Cleaning often stems from change management, and the difficulty caused by restricted time, insufficient training resources and a lack of experience in leading change. Today, several Team Cleaning training schools and programs are in operation throughout the US and beyond. Many now offer support programs and training kits to assist in teaching and implementation. On-site workshops are also available from many instructors.\nUpcoming Team Cleaning Seminars\nConcepts4 provides Team Cleaning training to custodial supervisors, environmental service directors, sales executives, facility and operations managers, and owners or CEOs. They have trained over 4,600 attendees since 1991. Topics include the science of cleaning, critical industry trends, systems thinking, an introduction to team cleaning and more. Seminars allow attendees to work with actual floor plans, with a complete set-up of a facility, including a task schedule and job cards for all specialists.\nJuly 22-23, Executive Seminar: High Performance Team Cleaning in Las Vegas, NV at the Treasure Island.\nAug. 20-21, Executive Seminar: High Performance Team Cleaning in Chicago, IL at the Hyatt Regency O\u2019Hare\nFor more information, visit www.teamcleaning.com or call (888) 494-3687.\nBYLINE: By Jessica Holmes\nJessica Holmes is a freelance writer based in Boise, Idaho, and a PR consultant for ProTeam, the company that innovated the lightweight backpack vacuum over 20 years ago and transformed the efficiency of cleaning.

        "raw_content": "Utopia and Dystopia are two different games, but we\u2019re covering them in the same article. I\u2019m not sure that\u2019s wise, because, they\u2019re very, very different. But they are connected: both figuratively and literally. Figuratively, they share the same universe and form two parts of the same story. Literally, you can play both games together and certain things in one can game can influence the other, turning it in to a competitive event. I also believe it\u2019s possible to play both games back-to-back, coming right out of one and into another, but that\u2019s somewhat dependent on there not being anyone in the other game!\nThe themes are fairly obvious from the title: it\u2019s the future, some people are living in bliss in the wonderfully clean and beautiful Utopia, others are struggling to make ends meet in Dystopia. But perhaps all is not as it seems.\nDystopia is a pretty traditional escape game. It\u2019s got some pretty cool bits and pieces, some clever and original puzzles and it\u2019s solid. It doesn\u2019t make any mistakes. It\u2019s very much: solve the puzzle, unlock the next things, work out how to use that and so on. It\u2019s the perfect example of that sort of game and I can\u2019t thing of anything wrong with it.\nUtopia, on the other hand\u2026 Utopia has ambition. Utopia has those futuristic white walls that are so hard to make look good, and it works. Utopia has technology up the wazoo and it works. Mostly. We had a couple of issues early on but things soon settled down. It\u2019s a much more delicate game than Dystopia: those clean, white walls and the utilitarian design mean there\u2019s not a huge amount of stuff to be picking up and handling. So you have a far better idea of the sort of thing you need to do, it\u2019s just working out exactly how to do it. There\u2019s also a lot of manipulating computer interfaces. In fact, the entire last third or so of the game involves puzzles on screen and entering answers into a computer. That sounds awful. It\u2019s awesome and some of the most fun we\u2019ve had in a game. But to explain how would be a spoiler. Suffice to say, something as video-game-ish as that can still be made to feel great in an escape room.\nUtopia also has more problems though. One puzzle was just a take on a puzzle book classic and just wasn\u2019t as different a take as it seemed to think, and the aforementioned technical issues early on led us down the wrong path for a good ten minutes, and there didn\u2019t seem to be an easy way for the hosts to correct it and explain what was meant to be happening. The inevitable dangers of working with technology!\nTogether, they make for a fascinating pair. Two connected games that have clearly been approached with very different aims and design philosophies, but in that way complement each other. Played back to back, you\u2019ll have two very different experiences, which is exactly how you\u2019re meant to feel in terms of the story and setting.\nResult \u2013 according the photos we got, we escaped both rooms in exactly 41:44 each. That\u2019s probably a misprint, but if it\u2019s not then consider that a challenge to others to get the same time in both rooms!",

        "raw_content": "The EU-Asia Centre, together with the Confucius Institute at the VUB and the Brussels Academy for China and European Studies, invite you to a panel discussion on public diplomacy with an emphasis on people-to-people connectivity. Academics, think tank experts, policymakers and renowned artists including the Oscar and Grammy laureate Maestro Tan Dun will share their views on the role of public diplomacy and artistic cooperation in bridging two continents.\nSoft power and the role of culture and education in public diplomacy can be observed in different ways - from promoting connectivity and the exchange of cultural goods and services to promoting the value of intercultural dialogue in addressing challenges related to migration and radicalization.\nBoth the EU and China are seeking to improve their image on the world stage with a variety of soft power tools, including the media, and through a range of cultural, educational, tech and sports events. China has invested enormous sums hosting the Olympics, expanding CGTN, boosting a range of state-led newspapers and by increasing the number of Confucius institutes in Europe. The EU has struggled to achieve an effective communications strategy, perhaps because of the many member states and perhaps because of inadequate financial resources.\nHow are the EU and China approaching public diplomacy?\nWhat are each party\u2019s respective best practices?\nWhat is the role of the EU\u2019s connectivity strategy in promoting contacts on the individual level?\nHow important are culture and education in connecting East and West?\nWhat may be the overarching geopolitical implications for EU-China relations?\nDo artistic and cultural interests drive East-West cooperation? Or is the cultural agenda being instrumentalised to achieve political and security goals?\nThese and more questions will be discussed at two successive panels on 28 January 2019 at 16.00 at the Flagey Concert Hall, Place Saint-Croix, 1050 Brussels.\nThe first panel will examine public diplomacy through the lens of China\u2019s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the EU\u2019s Connectivity Strategy. The second panel will consider how artistic cooperation, especially in music, can promote mutual understanding between varying cultures.\n16:00-17:00 Panel I: Public diplomacy and connectivity\nModerated by dr. Fraser Cameron, Director of the EU-Asia Centre\nMs. Shada Islam, Director for Europe and Geopolitics, Friends of Europe\nMs. Li Silong, Professor in Buddhist Philosophy and Associate Dean, Peking University\nMs. Cai Xiaoli, President, Asia-Pacific Women\u2019s Association (FAWA)\nMr. Ville Varjola, Advisor to the Managing Director for Asia and the Pacific, EEAS\n17:00-17:20 Performance by award-winning artists Jean-Francois Maljean (piano) and Eldbj\u00f8rg Hemsing (violin)\n17:20-18:20 Panel II: Promoting inter-cultural understanding through artistic cooperation\nModerated by Mr. Wei Shen, Vice Chair of the EU-Asia Centre\nMaestro Tan Dun, Oscar and Grammy Award-winning composer, conductor\nMs. Eldbj\u00f8rg Hemsing, Norwegian violist\nMs. Marianne L\u00f8kke Jakobsen, Director, Music Confucius Institute, Royal Danish Academy of Music\nMs. Monica Urian, Policy Officer for EU-Asia Cultural Relations, DG EAC, European Commission",

        "title": "Valencia \u2014 Travelogue",
        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Archives for Europe / Spain / Valencia\nValencia, Spains Mediterranean Playground\nA city known for its culture, industry and cuisine, Valencia is located on the eastern coastline of Spain. Paella is a regional rice and seafood or rice, meat and vegetable dish that originated near Lake Albufera near the coast in Valencia, but it is identified worldwide with Spanish cookery. The Valencia festival, Falles, honoring Saint Joseph is also known internationally. Falles features Paella at its finest. One of the most famous landmarks of Valencia is the City of Arts and Sciences, a museum complex with spectacular, contemporary architecture. Convention centers, five-star resorts and the richness of culture, history, architecture and coastal holiday luxury brings many visitors to the city each year.\nSoldiers who fought Viriatus, an Iberian antagonist, settled Valencia in the 2nd century B.C. They named the city Valentia, the Roman name for the practice of honoring soldiers for valour. After the Romans, Visogoths, Moors, Catalan and Aragonese each took their turn occupying the city. Ruins and architecture from each era can be found throughout the city. By the 15th and 16th century A.D., Valencia was a principle port on the Mediterranean. In 1478, a printing press in the city turned out the world's first Bible in a Romance language, the famous Valencian Bible. Bankers in Valencia funded Queen Isabella in Castile to send Columbus on his voyage in 1492.\nAmong the many architectural wonders to visit while in Valencia, some of the most prominent are the Cathedral of Valencia, where its is said by some to contain the original Holy Grail and other area medieval churches, and the squares where government, historical buildings, and fountains stand. Plenty of hotels and apartments in Valencia are available is this part of town. The City of Arts and Sciences is nestled into the Turia riverbed. The diverted river no longer floods the area because of the diversion in the 1960s after major flooding occurred. Valencia's own Santiago Calatrava designed the City of Arts and Sciences displaying stunning structures such as L'Hemisferic housing a planetarium, laserium and IMAX.\nThe museums in the City of Arts and Sciences include many venues. El Museu de les Ciencies Principe Felipe has three floors with an outer shell like a whale skeleton, an interactive science museum. Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia is an opera and music hall most extravagant. L-Oceanografic is the largest aquarium in Europe and features sea life from the Mediterranean, from coral reefs, polar areas, schools of fish, and more. Other museums include such as a bullfighting museum, an art museum, and some history museums.\nValencia is a city offering much diversity for residents and visitors to enjoy. The lovely Mediterranean climate gives the region hot, dry summers and mild winters. The two official languages of the city are Castilian and Valencian, but these languages are similar. Visitors can experience the art and culture of the old quarter. A Gulliver's playground for children is near the City of Arts and Sciences. Still, while on the beautiful coast, everyone should take some time for fun and relaxation on the city beaches or those larger beaches nearby. Valencia apartments, Grand hotels and affordable resorts are available near the seaside.\nFiled Under: Featured, Spain, Valencia",

        "raw_content": "Zoe Sugg, better known to most as \u2018Zoella\u2019, only began blogging in February 2009; just eight years later, she is now known as 'the most famous woman you\u2019ve never heard of'\u00b9 and with 12 million subscribers on her Youtube channel, 11m followers on Twitter, over 11m followers on Instagram and an impressive total of 1 billion views on her Youtube videos, it is safe to state that she has become a huge influencer for young women around the world and a role model for aspiring entrepreneurs.\nThis is the excitement of finding huge autumn leaves on our driveway \u00f0\u0178\ufffd\ufffd\nA post shared by Zoella (@zoella) on Sep 30, 2017 at 2:21am PDT\nLittle did she know on uploading her first ever video, '60 Things In My Bedroom', that in a relatively short time she would be a hugely successful businesswoman with a host of self-branded household products and beauty essentials. With her upbeat and approachable demeanour it\u2019s easy to understand why so many young people have warmed to her and become a loyal subscriber.\nShe has undeniably shot to fame in rapid fashion and in turn established a strong fan base which, perhaps most importantly from a commercial point of view, she has been able to convert into an enthusiastic customer base to sell her product ranges to - possibly the holy grail of any self respecting brand. With that in mind, let\u2019s take a closer look at how how the timing of her product launches have affected her YouTube channel over the past few years.\n\"Many go to Zoe for comfort and happiness because of how realistic she is and genuine she is. She shows us how she doesn\u2019t have a perfect life, she suffers anxiety, she shows and deals with real life problems that many other YouTubers hide, which allows us to relate and let us know that no one is perfect and everyone is dealing with their own problems. She\u2019s changed mine (and many others) life just by talking to a camera.\" - @zalfieefannpage, anxiety sufferer\nOnly posting one video each in 2009 and 2010, her channel didn\u2019t take off until 2011, when she uploaded 25 videos throughout the year. It was at this point that she began to delve into the YouTube community and befriended Louise Pentland (Sprinkle of Glitter), with whom she bonded instantly and created her first ever collaboration video. She then went on to win \u2018Best Established Beauty Blog\u2019 award at the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards, heralding a huge change in her life.\nWhen I opened our garage door yesterday after doing a treasure hunt of cute cards & was met with this, I went into pure shock (and cried)! Ever since I\u2019ve known @pointlessblog I\u2019ve pointed these adorable cars out to him every time we\u2019ve passed one, but I didn\u2019t ever expect him to surprise me with one. I am one lucky lady \u00f0\u0178\u2019\u2014\u00f0\u0178\u2019\u2014\u00f0\u0178\u2019\u2014\u00f0\u0178\u2019\u2014\nA post shared by Zoella (@zoella) on Oct 8, 2017 at 9:18am PDT\nOver the course of 2012 Sugg doubled the number of uploads to her main YouTube channel to 51 videos, but also created her more personal vlogging channel MoreZoella which has now grown to a total of 4.7 million subscribers. On this channel she posts content along the lines of full day activities and experiences and, most popularly, over the festive period to celebrate \u2018#Vlogmas.\u2019\nIn the same year she opened up to viewers about her social anxiety which has taken up a considerable part of her life and is something which helps a minority of her audience connect with her (justified not least by her becoming a digital ambassador for mental health charity Mind two years later). This suggests that being transparent about flaws and insecurities can actually strengthen your audience\u2019s perception of you, and that feigning perfection risks alienating people, or at least switching them off.\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8In 2013 she reached the 1 million subscribers milestone on YouTube, at which point she was named one of \u2018Britain\u2019s Most Influential Tweeters\u2019 by The Telegraph. It was also in the same year that she announced her relationship with Alfie Deyes (PointlessBlog), which viewers had speculated about for a couple of years prior to this announcement. Their relationship has blossomed over the years and they now famously own a mansion in Brighton with their pet dog, Nala. Both being YouTube sensations and macro-influencers, their humble vlogging beginnings has lead to success built on authenticity, inclusiveness and how relatable they are, all critical factors in the journey of brand building, product promotion and audience loyalty.\nBloody love this guy \u00f0\u0178\u2019\u2014\nIn September 2014, life just kept getting better for Zoella as she announced her first range of beauty products, aimed specifically at a teenage female audience. She struck an exclusive deal with Superdrug to stock the range in stores across the country and it quickly broke all sales records for the high street retailer, selling out completely in the first 24 hours.\nMore exciting news followed in November of the same year when she announced the debut of her first novel, Girl Online, selling over 78,000 copies in its first week and breaking JK Rowling\u2019s 1998 record for a first-time novelist. She topped off the year in style a month later by featuring in the Band Aid 30 video alongside celebrities such as One Direction, Ed Sheeran, Ellie Goulding and Coldplay\u2019s Chris Martin.\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8\nShe was now well and truly in the public eye and in the summer of 2015 appeared on Celebrity Great British Bake Off for Comic Relief, competing against established public figures such as Jonathan Ross, Abbey Clancy and Gok Wan. Around the same time she released her second \u2018Tutti Fruity\u2019 beauty range with Superdrug, which incredibly in its first 24 hours sold the equivalent of a product every two seconds, outdoing the first range by a colossal 87%\u00b2. A few months on, her second book in the Girl Online series was released, capping off another stratospheric year.\nThe effect of this flurry of television appearances, book launches and beauty ranges? Her Youtube subscribers grew by an astonishing 80%, from 5 million to 9 million. (trackalytics.com) Considering how many of her online fans are customers, and vice versa, capitalising on her audience by embarking on commercial ventures proved to be a powerful way to both grow her social media base and, in turn, potential buying audience further down the line.\nThe year after showed no signs of a deceleration and her rise to fame continued in May 2016 when she launched her next round of \u2018Zoella Beauty\u2019 products. Just two months later she reached an impressive 11 million subscribers on Youtube, growth of almost 20% again: the Zoella juggernaut was now at full speed.\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8 In September, Sugg announced an expansion of her product series with a range of more lifestyle-oriented items, including scented candles, slogan cushions and stationery. One month after the launch she reached the coveted achievement of featuring on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine and, conveniently, released her third Girl Online book a matter of weeks later, in November.\nTowards the end of the year she teamed up with her younger brother, Joe Sugg (ThatcherJoe) to release their own line of merchandise targeted at a younger male and female audience. This line includes ranges from phone cases to hoodies and their initial stock sold out in little over 25 minutes, proof were it needed that 'Team Sugg\u2019 had by now a hyper loyal audience - and therefore customer base - that was more than happy to part with its (parents\u2019) hard-earned cash. This was also proof that Zoe could successfully launch products at other target audiences beyond teenage girls, albeit in collaboration with her brother.\nFast forward to 2017 and her list of accolades is nothing short of impressive: a feature in Vogue magazine, two \u2018Best British Vlogger\u2019 Radio 1 Teen Awards, a \u2018UK Favourite Vlogger\u2019 Nickelodeon Teen Choice Award, television appearances on Loose Women and This Morning and, as previously mentioned, becoming the first ever digital ambassador for mental health awareness charity Mind. She even reached the lofty heights of having a waxwork of her placed in Madame Tussauds in London, joining the ranks of Michael Jackson, David Beckham and Madonna.\nIn March this year Zoella was named \u2018Number One Most Influential\u2019 by social media research firm Fizziology, based on her reach and average engagement across all social platforms. In July she announced her new \u2018Jelly and Gelato\u2019 beauty range, which includes body sprays, bath milk and a small clutch bag. More recently, she announced her latest lifestyle range, specifically for Christmas which includes an advent calendar, mugs and hot water bottles. She vlogged her family-and-friends launch event and you can see the kind of effort that goes into her launches here:\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8\nWhat I really want to emphasise is how Zoe Sugg has built herself an empire by launching self-branded products. She started off with a relatively small audience which rapidly increased once she caught the attention of young girls. Once girls began relating to Zoella, she gradually became a brand. She was and still is a lively, chatty and friendly individual who begins her videos with an enthusiastic and welcoming \u201chello everybody!\u201d Her subscriber count began ticking up and she hit one million in 2013: one million people invested in her content, who she is and what she stands for.\n\u201cI think Zoe is approachable because she\u2019s very genuine and appears friendly and easy to talk to - and of course has a great fashion sense! Her products are well designed, affordable and appeal to a wide audience, which may interest people who see her products on the shelves and persuade them to look into her videos.\u201d - @zoella.outfits_\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8\nBy mid-2014, Zoella was a fully established brand that retailers, publishers and advertisers all queued up to buy into. In 2014, on moving into a \u00a31 million mansion with boyfriend Alfie, she was criticised for losing her relatable nature rather than being celebrated for being a smart businesswoman. However, this wasn't enough to put viewers off as she gained over three million subscribers between 2014 and 2015. Perhaps seeing her success reeled them in more, or they were simply keen to see more of her success unfold.\nA post shared by Zoella Lifestyle (@zoellalifestyle) on Sep 6, 2016 at 4:09am PDT\nSugg has embarked on multiple beauty and lifestyle lines, released novels and won awards but remains hugely engaged with her core audience on her Youtube channel by sharing engaging, authentic and personable content. Accessible and approachable, she has spent several years building a formidable audience and discovering her voice on Youtube. As she grew in confidence and took an honest yet candid approach to her videos, she gained a loyal fanbase who see many aspects of her day-to-day life, from a day out with friends to the aftermath of a panic attack.\nShe makes it easy for her fans to relate, and to see her as both a role model and friend - ultimately this authenticity of content resonates with an active, engaged audience, capitalised on with the release of beauty and lifestyle products in high street stores.

Brands should always strive to put a face to the name and give their customers at least some insight into their personality, beliefs and culture. Ultimately, potential customers are sticklers for authenticity, the presence or absence of which has a critical bearing on conversion, investment and loyalty.\n\u00b9 http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/zoe-sugg---most-famous-3671787\n\u00b2 https://www.cosmeticsbusiness.com/news/article_page/Zoella_product_sold_every_two_seconds_at_Superdrug/111173\nLike this?

        "raw_content": "Shneur Zalman\nShneur Zalman of Liadi, was the founder and first Rebbe of Chabad Lubavitch . He was a prominent student of Dovber of Mezeritch, the Great Maggid. After the death of their teacher, the various students dispersed. Rabbi Shneur Zalman became the leader of Hasidism in Lithuania, and is accepted as one of the great Hasidic leaders. He involved himself in opposing Napoleon's advance on Russia and supporting the Jewish settlements in Israel. He was imprisoned by the Czar on charges of supporting the Ottoman Empire, since he advocated sending charity to the Ottoman territory of Palestine. The day of his acquittal and release, the 19th of Kislev, is celebrated as the \"Hasidic New Year\" by having a festive meal and communal pledges to learn the whole of the Talmud known as \"Chalukat Ha'Shas.\"\nHe was also known by the names of two works that he authored. One was a classic of kabala and mysticism called the Tanya. Thus he was called the ''Baal HaTanya'\\' .\nThe other work is on Jewish Law , halakha , known as the Shulchan Aruch HaRav , the \"Code of Law of the Rav\" . His work is the halkhic foundation of all Hasidism, and is used as referenced by scholars and laymen. Citations are routinely found in such varied sources as the Mishnah Berurah and Ben Ish Chai.\nDescendents of Rabbi Zalman adopted the names Schneersohn or Schneerson to accommodate Napoleonic edicts that required all subjects to take permanent surnames. (Prior to Napoleon's conquests and the winds of Enlightenment he brought in his wake, Jews only had their traditional names such as Shneur ben (son of) Boruch.) The last two Rebbes of Chabad Lubavitch, Rabbi Joseph Isaac Schneersohn (1880-1950) and Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson (1902-1994), living in modern times, adhered strictly to their family surnames.\nDovber of Mezeritch Chabad Lubavitch Succeeded by:\nDovber",

        "raw_content": "A's to the Q's\nOnce again - don't forget to enter the Your Choice Giveaway if you haven't already - you have until midnight to get your entries submitted.\nNow to get to your questions:\nWhat is your dream vacation spot? Not where you have been, but where you want to go:-)\nOh, goodness... I'm not even really sure... I'm such a homebody, but a couple of places that I'd like to go before I end my \"bucket list\" would be: Cape Cod, Boston, Chicago, and Seattle. If we were going 100% unrealistic... cause it'll never happen... I'd say Italy.\nWhat is your feeling about the healthcare reform bill that is on the brink of being passed? Do you agree with the \"Deem and Pass\" tactic that's being employed to try and pass it?\nWay to go for the juggular Jenn! Goodness... let me just give you a disclaimer - these are my views, and I respect that others won't agree... I don't judge anyone else for their views or attack them... so please give me the same courtesy.\nLet me start with saying that I'm certainly not a fan of this new bill - for many reasons. Personally, for me - being someone that had to pay 100% out of pocket for weight loss surgery and infertility treatments... I find that medical insurance is a joke for the most part - BUT I do not think that the government can or will make it any better. It irks me that they even think that they CAN make it better... but for sure a solution isn't to burden the country's finances with additional costs and taxes. I don't agree with abortion costs being covered for personal reasons, and I honestly at the core of my beliefs feel like there is no one in the world more qualified to direct your medical care than YOU and your doctor. No one in Washington or anywhere else can know more about what is going on in your body than you.\nCorrect me if I'm wrong, but isn't Medicaid specifically designed to be healthcare coverage for the folks in need? I'm not sure I can understand or get behind what exactly these folks in goverment are trying to do beyond what is already being done.\nFinally, I really hate the robinhood thought process that is going on out there right now. It gets me fired up to think that people who have worked for what they have - and worked hard to get to a place where they are comfortable - will be punished for having done what is right. It is not their responsibility to take care of anyone else... it is the responsibility of each individual person to get out there and make the best living possible... and take care of the things that they have in their life. I don't buy into the idea that people should be forced to pay for the lazy... and I'm certainly by no means saying that everyone that has fallen on hard times is lazy - absolutely contrary to what I'm saying... but there are folks out there that are a drain on our system because they choose to be. There are also people out there that are wealthy that are greedy and need to realize that they can loose it much more quickly than they earned it - but there is good and bad with everything.\nThe only thing that I have a hard time with is the children. I struggle with this because whatever circumstances children are in - it is through no fault of their own... they didn't ask to be born, and they didn't make any choices in whatever situation they find themselves in. However, this is exactly what Medicaid is for. A family member of mine has used that system - for a time while they were getting back on their feet - and honestly - they got much better healthcare during that time than I do for my insurance that I pay for directly.\nSo, hopefully if you've made it through this answer - you'll stick around with me...\nThere is no amount of money that could ever persuade you to eat this food item. What is it?\nWell, there are probably many... but lets just start with any sort of reproductive organ... and then go on to include any digestive organs, tongues, livers, gizzards, or hearts. (And with that - I think that I'll go be sick... and probably skip lunch today!)\nThings I shouldn't watch... 90210, Gossip Girl, Private Practice, and Grey's Anatomy. Good thing that I can make good solid choices based completely on my own morals - instead of looking to television to guide my life choices.\nDepends on the moment, but anything with Peanut Butter and Chocolate would be in the running. My favorite being the Peanut Butter Twix.\nHi, I'm a total dork... and my favorite place to go shopping is Target. Why, I don't know... but I can spend hours in there just browsing... I don't always buy anything either!\nFacebook... although right now - I'd say checking out new blogs. I used to get sucked into Facebook when I got home in the evenings and by the time I realized it - it was bed time. Now, I pretty much spend about 30 minutes to an hour on there when we first get home, and then I'm done with looking at the computer.\nI like to joke that too often, I have the patience of a fruit fly. When I said that to Todd yesterday, his reply was \"But fruit flies don't have patience.\" \"Exactly\", I said. When do you find that you are in short supply on patience in everyday situations?\nI have zero patience with adults mainly... I can't handle it when adults are lazy, don't take responsiblity for their actions, or have to repeatedly be told the same thing over and over again. Mainly - it drives me nuts when people expect you to do everything for them because they are too lazy to learn how to do it themselves. I can have patience with kids - but much past high school... and we're done with that.\nIn what area of your life to you consider yourself to be the most practical?\nThis might sound weird, but I think in general with my personal care - mainly to say that I don't spend tons of money on things like: facial products, make up, hair products, etc. I get my hair cut and styled about once every six months... so other than my nails (which I'm getting rid of right now in preparation for the baby) I really don't have many routine personal care expenses beyond the normal things that I buy (shampoo, conditioner, deoderant, etc.) at Walmart.\nWhat is your biggest pet peeve in the office? (Something tells me you could list several, but narrow it down to the biggest offender!)\nFunny that we were just talking about this yesterday, but by FAR - it is with email. The two biggest offenses being: copying the whole world needlessly on every email you send AND sending 4 \"rapid fire\" emails within 5 minutes. I am a big believer in not cluttering the email inbox with things that don't effect you... I don't need to know about that project - so why copy me on the email?! Also, please finish your thought and send me ONE email to cover all your questions!\nThat does it for this week's answers. Submit your questions for next Wednesday's Question and Answer session in the comments section on this post.\nfabulous answers my love.\nI never know what to ask...people always seem to come up with great questions though!\nAnd I'm with you....medicare was designed to help people but now there a lot of people \"working\" the system. I just don't understand why we don't fix the problems we already have before just creating a new system.\nAnd I'm with you on Target...I can walk around that place all day! I love it!",

        "raw_content": "Album: Something To Say\nLabel: VoxPop\nWebsite: http://www.damianclarke.co.uk\nDamian's probably best known to readers for his long-time membership of pioneering folk-punk-rockers Pressgang, but even during that outfit's final touring days he was enjoying a fruitful solo career, and he's managed to release a series of captivating solo records that have deliberately concentrated on maintaining his profile as a self-styled modern minstrel. The third album in this series is an intimate affair that would seem to have as a main mission championing the cause of the hammered dulcimer, a sadly underappreciated instrument whose distinctive ringing timbre looms large in the accompaniment to Damian's original songs. In fact, without wishing to over-generalise, one might hear it as taking on the role usually filled by the guitar on yer conventional singer-songwriter album.\nSomething To Say is a strongly unified collection, a good proportion of which comprises Damian's autobiographical reflections on his life and career as a touring musician. Interestingly, a handful of the song texts are also to be found integrated into Damian's own paintings (viewable online). These songs are well served by their delivery - keenly observant and sparkling and refreshing in demeanour, with a parallel delicacy of tone and expression yet capable of a lyrical punch where the nature of the recollection demands. In addition to the autobiographical songs, there are really effective accounts of the traditional Blue Cockade and Roger Wilson's Payday, as well as a couple of well-realised instrumental melodies and a standout rendition of fellow-hammered-dulcimerist Maclaine Colston's chiming tune Widcombe Flight. The album's finale is the fittingly anthemic title song, carried along on a tide of hurdy gurdy and whistle and leaving you with an earworm of a chorus. While the virtually omnipresent glorious clangour of the hammered dulcimer dominates the soundscape, Damian also treats us to a smattering of hurdy gurdy, Celtic harp, guitar and keyboard, while former Pressgang conspirator George Whitfield adds accordion and/or whistle to a handful of tracks. Pressgang bassist Cliff Eastabrook plays on a couple of tracks and is also responsible for the production of the album.\nIt's all most stylish, and as confident and persuasive advocate for the hammered dulcimer as you're likely to encounter. Pity that the arty backdrop for the package renders the vast majority of the lyrics nigh unreadable.\nDerrollAdams: Feelin' Fine Stephen Fearing: Every Soul's A Sailor",

And no stranger to success either with major labels Polydor / M&G Records with hits all around the world from Europe to South Africa.\nAnd it is, to some extent, that far flung worldwide success that has led to Prowse's latest album \"Companeros\", from which this track, \"Town & Country Blues\", is taken. The album was originally inspired by the idea behind Springsteen's breathtaking \"Seeger Sessions\" concept, but grew swiftly from just a collection of songs into a bona-fide sprawling reflection of all the great music that Ian had heard along the way during his musical journey on the highways and byways of these islands during the past 25 years. They have their provenance in the many musical comrades he has met down the years (hence the album's title).\n\"Town & Country Blues\" is an 'everything and the kitchen sink' approach that in this instance works like a dream. Driving acoustic guitar, funkier-than-thou horns, strident lead vocal and a ridiculously simple yet catchy chorus. It's all there. Like a mariachi band on amphetamines. And there at the head of it all, stands Ian Prowse who sounds like he's having an absolute ball.\nThis single will be sure to act as a potent lure for those who haven't yet availed themselves of the afore-mentioned \"Companeros\" long player.\nLady Maisery: Cycle War Waves: All That We Lack",

        "raw_content": "accepting what is here \u2026\nToday is my usual day off from therapy and all the things that I normally do on a day-to-day basis.\nAlthough the work of healing never ends, I try and give myself one day a week to really focus on my inner self and my soul, and the weekends I allow myself to be in that reflection.\nThis is a day that I try and give myself a day of silence and peace. I love to have days alone where I can sit and reflect within, without anyone around.\nI sometimes go to church and do an hour of adoration. I sometimes go to the park and sit in the prayer garden. I sometimes read, or write some poems. I sometimes just lie in bed and take a well-needed nap while my boys are at school.\nLast night I got an email from my therapist checking in. He wanted to know if I would come in on my day off and accept the extra support at hand; work with the toughness of these decisions I had to make.\nHe knows how I feel about my \u201cdays off\u201d. For me to come in on a day that is not planned is a huge step forward for me. I like my boundaries, but I also know \u201chey, this is for me, not for anyone else\u201d.\nI have an issue with depending on people. I don\u2019t like it. The moment I start feeling slightly dependent on people, I back away. There is no feeling that I hate more and that is the feeling of \u201cneeding\u201d. I cannot even think about the word \u201cneeding\u201d or \u201cdepending\u201d without wanting to run and grab a tight hold on my independence that I so much WORE my whole entire life.\nEveryday that I show up in my healing, it\u2019s for me and no one else. Everyday that I work hard in my blog, it\u2019s for me to heal, but to also help others in seeing the possibility of healing. Everyday that I take a moment of peace, its for my healing and for me. I spent a lifetime doing for others, so you can imagine that having my \u201cindependence\u201d is a huge part of my healing.\nWhen I got married to my husband, the first thing I said to him was \u201cyou will not tell me what to do, we are equal, and if you have a problem with me doing what I want to do, than this will not work out\u201d. Needless to say, my husband was not the controlling type, nor the type to tell me what to do, because 20 years later, and I am still happily married. My husband and I treat each other equal, and my marriage is very happy.\nAccepting support and reaching out have been struggles for me. In the past year I have really learned to accept it more and more. I am learning that there is more power in reaching out and accepting support, than there is retreating and trying to do it alone.\nI replied back to my therapist and said Yes, I will show up! No matter how hard this feels in crossing my own boundaries, yes! No matter HOW much I feel I am sitting right now, I am going to HONOR ME and show up, because when did I ever have that chance? So YES, I will come in on my day off\u201d.\nI showed up today, in the \u201csitting\u201d. I showed up just as I felt. Messy bun hair, face red and bloodshot eyes from a tough night because I had a long talk with my mom on the phone that was emotional. I didn\u2019t brush my teeth or shower for the day. I showed up JUST as I felt, and I will say this, I AM GLAD I SHOWED UP!\nToday I am sitting here, and I realize these are the moments that matter the most. Showing up just feeling like SHIT! Showing up in the hard place that I am in, and just being OKAY with that. Being OK with where I am right at this moment, being ok with just BEING! and that is OK.\nI realize I spend so much time wanting to keep going to the light, but never sit and honor what is getting me to the light.\nMy therapist told me today, he said \u201d go post a blog today and say how you feel\u201d. \u201cWrite an email to me tonight and I want you to just SCREAM out that anger, no filtering\u201d \u2013 \u201cyou be YOU no filtering, because you are truth, and you are healing, you help others to heal through your blog, you are Karen, and have a big voice, No matter where you are in this journey sitting or standing, you have my support 10000%\u201d.\nI stood up after our talk and I was all pumped up in the chest, not breathing, saying \u2013 \u201cI can do this\u201d!\nI realized today that I am actually moving in the SITTING. I am actually moving while not moving! HOW POWERFUL IS THAT?\nI am sitting here, I am emotional about my mom, I am emotional about decisions I have to make, I am ANGRY, I am frustrated, but I am OK. I know that I am moving forward, by honoring sitting, and just being and that is OK.\nI never thought it could be possible to be angry and happy at the same time. I never thought it was possible to be powerful and weak at the same time. I never thought it was possible for me to accept extra support and still hold my independence! I never thought it was possible to move through healing, and not move at the same time \u2013 wow!\nToday is a powerful day, and his Wisdom made me see that I am moving in the sitting, it just doesn\u2019t feel like movement, but I am.\nThis healing journey has taught me that all the different paths I take, both hard and good are worth it!\nI have come a long long way, and I see the light, and I will continue to, even if it\u2019s fading at times! I need to be ok with the feeling of not always being on top of it. I dont have to close the wound shut right away, it will eventually heal so I can go to the next.\nThank you Andy for giving me the courage today to write how I feel in this moment, and to find power in the sitting! As you said, \u201ckeep doing what you are doing, keep writing how you are writing, and keep healing like you are healing\u201d. It\u2019s all-powerful!\nbecoming uncovered\nAMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is all I could say at first!! Karen me being a therapist, you hit the nail on the head.\nyou can be still and move at the same time! it\u2019s called honoring what is there, and learning about it!\nI love what you said about finding power in accepting.\nI am glad you showed up on your day off, this is for you, not for him, not for anyone else. You never had the chance as a child to have that support, take it, run with it, LOVE IT! it\u2019s YOURS\nAMEN KAREN.. this is the best blog you have written\nHanna.. you know I thought about you today as well.. I really have found that I spend way too much time trying to run towards the result, without understanding what I am mending.. healing is a powerful thing, and if I keep focusing on getting out of this healing, I will never heal! today I took my time to understand it.. and my therapist got me to realize that no matter if I am standing, sitting, crawling or kicking, I am still moving through healing. I am not here sitting in the bad, I am moving out of it by honoring it.. this is powerful and I am so glad that I showed up today!\nKaren, sometimes we need to find peace in what we are in. I think that you have done a great job moving through this healing. I dont think I would have your strength! I really enjoy reading your journey, thank you for taking us along\nShannon, thank you so much for your support in reading my blog.. that means alot to me \u2026",

        "raw_content": "Big reasons you should never get a tattoo\n<!\u2013 \u25b6\ufe0e Subscribe to Looper on YouTube\u2013>\nSo you\u2019re thinking about getting a tattoo? Good for you for doing your research! This is a permanent decision, so thinking it through and being absolutely sure is critical.\n\u201cThe choice to get a tattoo is highly personal and one that should only be made after a careful and deliberate consideration of the consequences (both short and long term) of the tattoo,\u201d Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Stephen Greenberg told me. \u201cAs we age and a patient\u2019s lifestyle changes, one of the biggest regrets is not the clothing that a patient wore to a particular event or a bad haircut or clothing style craze they fell into, but the permanent tattoo that they wish they had never gotten in the first place!\u201d\nUnfortunately, there are times in our lives when it\u2019s best to hold off on the ink. Whether it\u2019s because you haven\u2019t had a chance to think it through or don\u2019t know your tattoo artist, take your time and ask yourself if you\u2019re in a season of life when a tattoo isn\u2019t the best idea. Here are just a few reasons to hold off for now, according to the experts.\nYou don\u2019t know your tattoo artist\nYou wouldn\u2019t undergo surgery with a surgeon you\u2019d never met, so don\u2019t do the same with your tattoo artist. Before jumping in, get to know your artist, look at her portfolio, and ask for references. Unfortunately there are some inexperienced and unskilled ones out there.\n\u201cIt happens far too often,\u201d tattoo artist Mark Detter told Baraboo News Republic. \u201cThe state requires that artists abide by certain health and safety standards. But there\u2019s no requirement that an artist have talent.\u201d\nA bad tattoo artist could leave you with a sloppy tattoo at best, serious infection at worst. \u201cIt leaves people exposed to contracting HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C,\u201d Heath Technician Matt Kachel explained to Baraboo. \u201cThese are diseases a person may contract and not know about it for a long time. It can lead to outbreaks, and that\u2019s not something that we\u2019d like to see.\u201d Don\u2019t worry about asking too many questions. Do your homework so you can feel good about this experience.\nYou\u2019re looking for a job\nI\u2019d love to tell you to jump right in if you\u2019re ready for your first tattoo, but if you are currently job hunting, take a serious pause. Research shows that having visible tattoos makes is harder to get hired. \u201cVisible tattoos\u201d refers to tattoos on the face, neck, forearms, hands, and lower legs.\nA negative bias against tattoos seems to affect every business sector. Restaurant managers prefer hiring servers without visible tattoos while sales managers worry that hiring sales people with tattoos will affect sales.\nJust because you\u2019re not currently searching for a job doesn\u2019t mean you won\u2019t in the future. Keep that in mind when choosing the location for your new piece of artwork.\nYou haven\u2019t really thought it through\nDeciding to get a tattoo on a whim with friends can feel exhilarating, but it\u2019s best to sleep on the decision. You\u2019ll be living with this decision forever. It\u2019s best to completely think it through first.\n\u201cA number of reasons can influence a person\u2019s decision to seek tattoo removal,\u201d Dr. Roy G. Geronemus told Medical Daily. \u201cYoung woman [sic] become mothers, people experience changes in work status, and sometimes it\u2019s just a matter of maturity. We call it \u2018Tattoo Remorse.'\u201d This tattoo remorse is causing the number of people looking into and pursuing tattoo removal to rise. This makes it even more important to seriously weigh the pros and cons before heading to the tattoo parlor.\n\u201cAs more people continue to get tattoos, the more people are having tattoos removed,\u201d Dr. Geronemus explained. \u201cWith recent advancements in skin care technology such as PicoSure, tattoo removal has become significantly easier. For example, in the past the colors blue and green have been problematic in removing from the skin. However, today these colors have become the easiest to remove.\u201d Even though the process of removal has become easier, it still involves multiple appointments and procedures. Make the right decision from the beginning.\nYou\u2019re worried about being judged\nWhile you shouldn\u2019t make life decisions based on what others think, know that a tattoo could change the way you\u2019re perceived. If you are a sensitive person, that could play into your decision.\nA study in Managing Service Quality found that if you have any visible tattoos, you\u2019re probably going to be judged for them at some point or another. Participants in the study were asked to look at pictures of people with and without tattoos, then make assumptions about them. Study participants believed the tattoos were unprofessional. Older participants even went so far as to say that the tattooed workers seemed less intelligent and less honest than the non-tattooed workers.\nYou\u2019re planning to become pregnant\nEven though tattoo removal is possible, a tattoo is a permanent decision. It should not be taken lightly, and it\u2019s important to think about its ramifications in the long-term. For example, if you are planning to become pregnant in the future, know that your tattoo may change. Any weight gain or loss stretches and then releases your skin, meaning your tattoo could end up looking different than it originally did.\nNever get one near your sweat glands\nThis is one aspect of tattooing that I never considered. According to a recent study, having a tattoo affects the way your body sweats. That ink on your skin can actually block sweat, so choose where to place it very wisely. Our bodies need to sweat to avoid overheating, so it\u2019s especially important to never block your sweat glands with a tattoo.\n\u201cWe also found the sodium in sweat was more concentrated when released from tattooed skin,\u201d study coauthor Maurie Luetkemeier told Time. It also turns out that skin that has a tattoo on it releases 50 percent less sweat than surrounding skin. Tattooed skin may not be able to reabsorb those lost electrolytes as well either.\nYou\u2019ve had skin cancer\nIf you have had skin cancer or if there is a strong history in your family, keep walking the next time you pass a tattoo parlor. While there is not a direct link between tattoos and skin cancer, there is enough concerning information about a possible connection to make you think twice.\n\u201cThe process of tattooing involves the integration of metallic salts and organic dyes into the dermal layer of the skin,\u201d Plastic Surgeon Cormac Joyce told Time. Breaking into the skin and causing this inflammation could lead to \u201cmalignant transformation.\u201d Dr. Joyce believes that while tattoos do not cause skin cancer, they could put those already at risk in danger. Talk with your doctor if you\u2019re concerned.\nYou\u2019re sick with a virus\nGetting a tattoo is not like having professional makeup applied. Because the needles penetrate your skin, you will be exposed to potential infections. If you are just coming down with a cold or virus, it\u2019s best to fully recover before undergoing any invasive procedure.\n\u201cTattoos should be thought of as a medical procedure as it poses similar risks as minor surgery does,\u201d Dr. Greenberg told me. \u201cPatients run the risk for an immediate or delayed infection, poor healing, poor scarring, localized or systemic reaction to the ink/dye, and there have also been reported cases of infectious disease transmission from dirty needles and instruments. While some of these risks can be treated with antibiotics, many of these risks pose long-term consequences.\u201d\nYou want to mark a special occasion\nIt seems that tattooing your partner\u2019s name on your body is a red flag that you\u2019re about to break up. I don\u2019t believe in jinxing yourself, but if I did, this would be at the top of the list. Next time you want to make a grand gesture for your significant other, book an amazing vacation for the two of you and leave the tattoo needles at home.\nWhen Kaley Cuoco and now ex-husband Ryan Sweeting met, they married within a year and celebrated that date with a tattoo. Unfortunately, the marriage ended almost as quickly as it started, and Cuoco was stuck with the tattoo on her upper back. She shared her journey of covering it with her fans on Instagram. Rather than remove the wedding date tattoo, Cuoco chose to cover it with an insect, writing, \u201cthe deep, meaningful, larger than life meaning behind this beautiful piece of ink, is\u2026.. It covered the last one.\u201d\nCuoco clearly had a sense of humor about the process, because she later posted, \u201cnote to self- do not mark your body with any future wedding dates #under30mistakes #donttakeyourselftooseriouslykids.\u201d So next time you\u2019re tempted to make an #under30mistake, brainstorm other ways to show your love.\nYou don\u2019t know what kind of ink is being used\nWe\u2019ve established that before ever seriously considering a tattoo, you should get to know the artist and ask lots of questions. Part of this process should be making sure to find out exactly what kind of ink he plans to use and where it came from. While the ink itself may be sterile, there have been cases of artists diluting it with water in order to achieve the perfect shade. If the water is not sterile, this can contaminate the entire ink supply, spreading infection.\nYou\u2019re unsure about the spelling and style\nThere is nothing more cringeworthy than a misspelled tattoo. It is literally a constant reminder of your mistake. Double and triple check the spelling and style before going ahead with any tattoo.\nJennifer Lawrence knows this firsthand. She has an H2O tattoo on her hand, but the two is not aligned properly. \u201cI was with Liam [Hemsworth]\u2019s family and everybody was getting tattoos, and I was like, well, I\u2019m always going to need to be hydrated, so I guess I should get H2O on my hand,\u201d the actress told HitFix. \u201cBy the way, I know that the two is high and in H2O the two is supposed to be low. I should\u2019ve Googled it before I got it tattooed on my body forever.\u201d Google first. Tattoo second.\nPerceptions are changing\nWhile it\u2019s true that having a tattoo can affect how others see and even judge you, the tide seems to be turning and, fortunately for the tattoo lovers, perceptions and biases are changing. An article in College Student Journal found that the majority of college students surveyed were open to tattoos. Most acknowledged the fact that they could face some discrimination for a visible tattoo. That being said, over half were still considering one.\nDon\u2019t write it off if a tattoo is right for you. Just make sure you\u2019ve given yourself plenty of time to choose the right tattoo with the right artist at the right time in your life.",

        "raw_content": "Mumbai Stands Up Against SC Verdict\nA protester holding the rainbow flag in Mumbai (Picture by: Punit Reddy)\nThe Supreme Court\u2019s verdict on homosexuality was met with anger all over the world. Mumbai was one of the cities that showed its fury against this. Thousands gathered at Maheshwari Udyan, Matunga in Mumbai on December 16, 2013 to raise their voices against the injustice. This was a part of the \u2018Global Day of Rage\u2019 movement, which happened in almost two dozen cities like Kolkata, Bangalore, Delhi, San Francisco, Berlin, Toronto, etc. It was not just the city\u2019s LGBT community that gathered; several others who wanted to show their solidarity to safeguard the human rights of the community were also present. The cause was also supported by celebrities like Nandita Das, Anushka Manchanda, Purab Kohli, Zoya Akhtar, Prateik Babbar and a few others who also participated in the rally.

It will follow Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and David Ayer's Suicide Squad.\nMacLaren's hiring makes for the first time that a female director has been assigned a superhero property since Paddy Jenkins walked off the set of Thor: The Dark World, and is a major coup for the studio.

        "raw_content": "Who Might Play Jean Grey And Scott Summers In 'X-Men: Apocalypse'?\nOne of the clear directives in setting the next X-Men film in the 1980's is the need to cast younger performers in the role of Cyclops and Jean Grey, amongst others. Now, according to The Wrap, a number of candidates have emerged, and on the Jean-side particularly, they're well known names.\nFox is currently considering the following actresses for the role of Jean Grey in X-Men: Apocalypse, last played by Famke Janssen in five X-Men films:\nChloe Grace Moretz - likely the most well known of this group, having starred at Hit-Girl in Kick Ass and its sequel, the title role in the Carrie remake, and a number of other films.\nHailee Steinfeld - co-star of the Coen Bros' True Grit (for which she was Oscar nominated), she's also recently appeared in Ender's Game.\nElle Fanning - known for her roles in Super 8 and Maleficent.\nAny of these three would be fabulous choices, though Fanning is particularly on the rise with an upcoming transgender role in the drama-comedy Three Generations that's seen a good deal of press.\nAs for the role of Cyclops/Scott Summers, the studio is looking at lesser known actors but their short-list includes Timothee Chalamet (who played the young Tom Cooper in Interstellar), Ben Hardy (EastEnders), and Charlie Rowe (Red Band Society).\nThe new film will center on the romantic relationship between Jennifer Lawrence's Mystique and Michael Fassbender's Magneto, and could very well set the tone for whatever occurs between the two characters cast for the X-Men's most famous couple.\nThe real question though...if Hugh Jackman returns as Wolverine, I wonder how they'll handle his relationship with Jean this time around?",

No way around it: It\u2019s on you.\u201d\nDemosthenes was born with a debilitating speech impediment, but despite this, he became one of the most famous orators in history. When asked about the three most important traits of speechmaking, he replied: \u201cAction, Action, Action!\u201d.\nTo get to know better ourselves we should think about how we respond to problems that appear. These three questions tell a lot about our character. Do we run toward them? Do we run away from them? Or, are we paralyzed and do nothing? It is at this moment when so many of us fail - we choose to run away instead of taking action.\nIn life-threatening situations, like an accident, even though we are in shock, we know what to do. For example, we get our arms up around our face. In such moments we don\u2019t think, complain, or argue. We act. We have more strength than we expect. We can act in this way in everyday life too.\nWe can observe a similar way of acting in people who struggle with poverty, discrimination, physical disabilities, etc.. Most of them don\u2019t feel sorry for themselves, they don\u2019t give up. They don\u2019t have a choice, so they do the best they can for themselves.\nUnfortunately, in everyday life we postpone action. We act frail, powerless. We expect that others will do something instead of us, or that the obstacle will disappear. Instead of hiding, we should greet obstacles with:\n- a coherent and deliberate process\n- iteration and resilience\n- pragmatism\n- strategic vision\n- craftiness and savvy\n- an eye for opportunity and pivotal moments\nThe discipline of action.",

        "raw_content": "NAME: Grandview\nBEST TIME TO VISIT: Anytime. COMMENTS: Worth the Trip. Update:Hello Ghosttowns.com, I am writing this letter to try and save some people some sanity. I have been in the area where your web site has said the Ghost town of Grandview, Or. is supposed to be. I think it would be wise to let the guests to your site know that there is only one passable road and it leads to the Grandview Cemetery. I have tried on two occasions to try and find this ghost town. I am not 100% positive but I feel that there isn't anything left of Grandview, Or. except the cemetery. The area to the east of the cemetery has a couple of new houses built there. The land south of the cemetery is being sold. The land north and west of the cemetery is posted private property. If you know or can find out where the \"town\" was supposed to be located from the cemetery I will be willing to go and try to locate it again since I live close to the area. I can't find anyone who knows anything about it except that it use to be there. My last hope is that the court house in Jefferson County will have land records from back then and be able to tell me where the town was located. If they don't I am afraid that the ghost town of Grandview, Or. will be a memory. I will let you know what I find out. Thanks for your time. Sincerely, J. Edwards\nREMAINS: A few buildings.\nOne has to admire the tenacity and resilience of the settlers of what are now non-mining ghost towns. For whatever the reason, they had to pack up, move and start all over again. Such was the case for the settlers of Grandview. Farmers and homesteaders who settled Grandview were promised water and plenty of it. And so they came to turn the land into farms and build their homes and schools for their children. This they did with great optimism despite the rocky soil that dulled farm machinery and the lack of sufficient water for the farms in an arid location. By the time the small cemetery held about a dozen graves, Grandview was being deserted. The town is empty now. SUBMITTED BY: Henry Chenowith\nUPDATE:There Are actually two ways to get to Grandview, Oregon, the road that crosses lake Billy Chinook continues into the town of Sisters. I used to live in a canyon several miles north of Sisters & often travelled the road through Grandview on my way to Madras, 47 miles as I recall. Coming from across the lake you will find the cemetery first, continue to the 90 degree left turn, stop & look around- you should find an old well to the right or behind your vehicle in the field. The little road that leads straight off the corner may bring you to possible homesites. It has been 15 years since I was there so expect lots of changes, probably homes by now. After investigating the area, return to your vehicle & continue ahead. Watch for an old water storage tank, hand built of stone, this would be on your right visvble from the road. Shortly after, you will come upon the remains of an old house, to the left out in the field. I watched this house deteriorate over the years as people were destroying it by pulling pieces of with vehicles. This is all that i know of Grandview except that some of the grade for bringing the water can be found near Sisters, South & West on a dirt road. It looks similar to an old railroad grade.\nUPDATE: The remaining buildings of Grandview are collapsed; I got a photo of one of the last ones in about 1974, and we did not relocate the site until a year or two ago. The area is near the cemetery and to the north, off of a typical two-track road. (typical = rocks, ruts, etc.) The stone building with the water tank inside (a cistern) is the approximate site of Geneva, NOT Grandview. Geneva is another ghost community with little history known. We grew up in this area and visit once or twice a year, mostly during winter range season to see the deer and watch for poaching activity. Best access is via Jordan Road or from the Camp Polk area. When the roads are thawing in the early spring, please do the courtesy of staying on the improved gravel roads and avoiding the others. Travel in these conditions is very hard on the roads, and makes them less usable for the residents and ranchers who must use them year-round. In winter, the roads are usually frozen or dry, and quite accessible. Roaming the general area between the canyons and Green Ridge will locate old mill sites, many homestead sites,and other things of interest, although there are very few aged structures surviving. Mark and Pat Ingram\nIf you care to get the real story of the Grandview and Geneva,Oregon area, please feel free to come and join us every Memorial Day weekend for our family is the ones who keep the cemetery in good order. Come as you are. Stay for lunch and have a good time, and learn alot of history of the area. The old timers are almost all gone so please come by next Memorial Day weekend. You won't regret it.\nMy family ties are with the Nance Family buried at the cemetery.\nHope to see you next Memorial Day, Glen Cole\nCourtesy Randy Surface\nGrandview (Geneva)",

And that meant I didn\u2019t have to pass on the girl scout cookies in the break room after all. Which, if we\u2019re being honest, I turned down with a nonchalant \u201cNo thanks. Gave up chocolate for Lent!\u201d and then secretly snuck back five minutes later to steal the box and inhale whatever was left.\nMy New Year\u2019s Resolutions don\u2019t often last through January, which is probably why the concept of Lent appeals to me. It\u2019s sort of a do-over. If you already blew it on your yearlong goals, just try to behave yourself for 40 days.\nIn a religious context, Lent serves as a six-week preparation for Easter. It\u2019s meant to be a period of time to focus on prayer, repentance of sins, and self-denial. (Do my delusions that \u201cthis time I\u2019ll stick with it!\u201d count as self-denial? I may be onto something here.)\nMardi Gras, also known as Fat Tuesday (conveniently, also my stripper name!) is a day of self-indulgence and celebration before the start of Lent. And, just like Jesus would have wanted, it\u2019s one last chance before Easter to shake your boobs for beads. #FreetheNipple\nIt's on Mardi Gras that I feel optimistic, promising to quit chocolate until Easter arrives and envelopes me in sweet caramel with a candy coating. Other foolish and unrealistic things I said I was giving up after Mardi Gras include:\nThis year, in the interest of keeping my New Year\u2019s Resolution to post on my blog at least once a week, I\u2019m going to give up binge-watching for Lent.\nYes - I'm breaking up with Netflix so I can stay with chocolate.\nNo more weekend benders plowing through half a season of Grey\u2019s Anatomy and two Adam Sandler movies. No more coming home from work and watching The Office until I pass out. I\u2019m limiting myself to one episode per day - freeing up lots of time to write new blog posts and fit other, more productive activities into my day.\nTune in later for a follow-up post, where I will be doing one or more of the following:\nRanting about how much I miss Netflix\nExperiencing Catholic guilt for failing to give up Netflix\nPatting myself on the back for not trying to give up chocolate again\nWhat are you giving up for Lent?

Sukuks are commonly likened to conventional bonds, but differ in that investors receive a share of an underlying asset, along with the commensurate cash flows and risk, rather than ownership of just a debt.\nCredit rating agency Standard & Poor's sees total sukuk issuance across the world for 2015 at $100-$115 billion. For comparison, the global debt market stands at around $100 trillion in amounts outstanding.\nSeveral countries in North and sub-Saharan African are already planning sukuk debuts for this year, including Tunisia, Egypt, Nigeria and Kenya.

        "raw_content": "sexual harassment Oct. 23, 2017\nJohn Besh Has Stepped Down From His Restaurant Group\nThe news was announced in a letter to staff.\nNew Orleans chef John Besh has stepped down from his Besh Restaurant Group, two days after an explosive report about a culture of sexual harassment and abuse at the company. The New Orleans Advocate obtained a letter sent to staff in which company executive Shannon White announced the news that Besh was going \u201cto provide his full focus on this family.\u201d A spokesperson confirmed the authenticity of the letter, but did not comment on whether Besh will retain his ownership stake or if there will be a name change. White will be the company\u2019s chief executive officer going forward.\nIn the letter, White explained steps she says the company is taking to address the Group\u2019s myriad issues. It has hired an agency to independently investigate if there are unreported claims, will revise its sexual-harassment policy and code of conduct, and create an employee-assistance program to offer counseling, a confidential hotline to report claims, and more. She also says that a new employee-training program with more sexual-harassment training was started last week. In her letter, White writes to her employees that \u201cour goal is to earn your trust and for you to know that we take all concerns seriously.\u201d Besh had released a statement expressing regret, but would not admit to looking the other way or cultivating a culture of sexual harassment and misconduct.\nIn his New Orleans Times-Picyuane report, Brett Anderson shared allegations from 25 women that included coerced sexual relationships; an environment where men made suggestive comments, and inappropriately touched women with impunity; and more. The company neglected to create an HR department, only setting one up last week i the days before Anderson\u2019s report. In a Facebook post, ex-Shaya chef Alon Shaya claims he was fired for speaking out about sexual harassment and that every one of his requests to set up an HR department were denied. A former line cook at Shaya alleged that she \u201cheard daily \u2018jokes\u2019 about rape, including one joke about pedophilia\u201d and that nothing changed after she complained.\nIndustry Reactions to John Besh\u2019s Sexual-Harassment Allegations",

        "raw_content": "Conservative Treatments, Back Surgery Show Similar Outcomes in Select Patients\nAt some point during their lives, 60 to 80 percent of American adults will suffer from acute lower back pain. And while up to 90 percent of these patients will recover from their pain within six weeks, some patients will develop more debilitating, longer-lasting symptoms. \"The number of patients we're seeing with chronic lower back pain who don't respond to conservative treatments is increasing,\" explained Dr. David Provenzano, Medical Director of Ohio Valley General Hospital's Pain Treatment Center. \"Once we've ruled out more serious issues like cancer, infection and herniated discs, we work with them to develop overall health strategies to help relieve their pain.\"\nAccording to Dr. Provenzano, 50 percent of patients with acute back pain who undergo conservative treatment will recover within two weeks, and 90 percent of patients will recover within six weeks. Those with chronic back pain, however, might also need to make lifestyle changes including changing their diets, quitting smoking and exercising more in order to improve.\n\"While doctors used to prescribe bed rest, we now know that this is not the best way to treat low back pain,\" Dr. Provenzano said. \"Muscles atrophy (weakness), which makes patients susceptible to future episodes, so we recommend that they undergo some form of physical therapy. Because patients who are obese and those who smoke have a higher percentage of lower back pain, we also suggest making changes in these areas.\"\nThere are a number of ways that both acute and chronic back pain can be treated. Medications such as muscle relaxants and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories can be used for a short period of time. Older patients who have not responded to other forms of treatment may be treated with opioid pain medications. In younger individuals, doctors try to avoid the utilization of opioids for prolonged periods of time. A cornerstone of treatment should be patient comfort to assist the patient with the time required for the natural healing processes.\n\"A lot is being done with minimally invasive injections, such as epidural steroid injections for herniated discs which help to speed recovery, and joint injections for arthritis,\" said Dr. Provenzano.\nFor patients who do not respond to such treatments, back surgery may be recommended, although Dr. Provenzano advises that for a majority of patients, conservative treatments should be considered first. \"Unfortunately, between 10 and 40 percent of patients who have had back surgery for lower back symptoms experience persistent or recurrent pain,\" he said. \"Recent studies in the Journal of the American Medical Association and the New England Journal of Medicine compared patients who had surgery for herniated discs with those who underwent nonsurgical treatment. Both groups improved substantially over a one- to two-year period.\n\"A large percentage of patients will get better with conservative care, and there was no difference in outcomes between the two treatments groups after one year in the New England Journal of Medicine study published in 2007,\" he added.\nPatients who have not responded to conservative treatment and who still suffer from back and leg pain may consider surgical intervention, as well as those who suffer from lumbar spinal stenosis who have not been helped with medications or epidural steroid injections. \"At the Pain Clinic, our multi-disciplinary pain program is designed to give patients access to whatever types of treatment they need, which may include medications, physical therapy, injection therapy or referral for surgical intervention individually or in combination,\" said Dr. Provenzano. \"You need to treat patients who suffer from low back pain in a multidisciplinary approach in order to get the best outcomes.\"\nBy helping patients change their overall health strategies, the Pain Center is also trying to prevent future back problems from occurring. \"We promote exercise because it's very important to have strong core musculature in both your abdominal muscles and back muscles,\" said Dr. Provenzano. \"We also work with patients on cognitive behavioral therapy in order to help them cope with the pain.\n\"For example, many patients with chronic back pain are afraid that everything they do will hurt, so they become anxious and frustrated,\" he added. \"This fear-avoidance behavior can result in a patient heading in a downward spiral. As part of their treatment, we teach them ways to deal with the anxiety and emotions that they are feeling so that they can begin to heal.\"\nFor more information on Ohio Valley General Hospital's Pain Treatment Center, call (412) 777-6400 or visit the web site www.ohiovalleyhospital.org/pain",

Except in a few films, such as Arizona (1940), where the director insisted on using percussion rifles, shotguns and handguns because cartridge guns were so much easier to manage and more reliable, they were often substituted for earlier arms. I can think of at least a half-dozen or so longarms and handguns that stand head and shoulders above the rest and were movie mainstays from the silent era right up to the 1960s.

However, when a deranged lunatic like James Holmes gets his hands on a gun, it can have tragic consequences.\n\"Shooting teaches responsibility, discipline, focus and this is a sport, it's sad when those lines get blurred by someone who was obviously disturbed,\" Rhode told Reuters. \"Hopefully we continue on a positive path and teach others.\"\nA dedicated shooter since she was a child, Rhode took her first world shooting title at the age of 13, and was the youngest member of the U.S. Shooting Team at the 1996 Atlanta Summer Games three years later.

McCullough February 1\nWhat we know about the Quebec City mosque attack\nA gunman attacked a mosque in Canada's Quebec City, killing at least six worshipers and injuring 19 others as they finished their evening prayers on Jan. 29. Police deemed the shooting a terrorist attack. (Jenny Starrs/The Washington Post)\nJ.J. McCullough, a political commentator and cartoonist from Vancouver, is a columnist at Loonie Politics.\nAs Canadian politicians and journalists scramble for tidy, ideologically pleasing narratives in the wake of this week\u2019s senseless slaughter at a Quebec City mosque, one disturbing fact has gone conspicuously unmentioned: A disproportionate share of the country\u2019s massacres occur in the province of Quebec.\nI was born in 1984. Since then, Quebec has experienced at least six high-profile episodes of attempted public mass murder.\nRead These Comments\nThe best conversations on The Washington Post\nOn the morning of May 8, 1984, Denis Lortie walked into the Quebec provincial legislature carrying multiple weapons and opened fire, shooting 16 people, three fatally. Only his ignorance of the parliamentary timetable (few politicians were sitting at that hour) and the heroism of Ren\u00e9 Marc Jalbert, the sergeant-at-arms, prevented greater slaughter.\nFive years later, on Dec. 6, 1989, a 25-year-old misogynist named Marc L\u00e9pine strolled methodically through the classrooms of Quebec\u2019s \u00c9cole Polytechnique de Montr\u00e9al, a rifle in his arms, and murdered 13 female students and a school employee and injured 14 others before committing suicide. The incident is commemorated annually across Canada as a case study in violence against women.\nThree years after that, on Aug. 24, 1992, disgruntled Soviet-born assistant professor Valery Fabrikant shot and killed four of his colleagues with a handgun at Montreal\u2019s Concordia University. Fourteen years after that, yet another Quebec school became the setting for a bloodbath when, on Sept. 13, 2006, 25-year-old Kimveer Gill roamed the halls of Dawson College in a black trench coat and shot 17 students, killing one.\nOn the evening of Quebec\u2019s 2012 provincial election, a Anglo-Quebecer named Richard Henry Bain attempted to assassinate the province\u2019s newly elected secessionist premier, Pauline Marois, at a victory rally along with \u2014 in his words \u2014 \u201cas many separatists as I could.\u201d A jammed rifle ultimately resulted in only two casualties, stagehands Denis Blanchette, who was killed, and Dave Courage, who was wounded by the same bullet. It was, declared a judge, an attempt to use violence \u201cto change the results of the election and the course of history.\u201d\nAnd now we have the Quebec City mosque massacre of 2017, in which as many as 25 Muslim men were shot, six (so far) fatally, by Alexandre Bissonnette, as they bowed for evening prayers. Bissonnette\u2019s motives are still unknown, but early speculation centers around allegations of Islamophobic activity on social media. His Facebook likes include popular Quebec political parties such as the separatist Parti Quebecois and New Democratic Party of Canada.\nIn short, my lifetime has overlapped with at least one spectacular act of Quebec public violence every five years or so. No other province can claim the same.\nFrench-speaking Quebec is often held up (and certainly holds itself up) as Canada\u2019s most essential region, home to a precious set of particularities that help make Canada the marvelous place it is. On such issues as postsecondary education, child care and (ironically enough) gun control, progressive Canadians laud its social-democratic policies as moral exemplars, and the province has played an outsize role in pushing Canadian politics to the left.\nCriticism of Quebec, meanwhile, is deeply taboo. In a 2006 essay, Globe and Mail columnist Jan Wong posited a theory that Quebec\u2019s various lone nuts, many of whom were not of pure French-Canadian stock, were predictably alienated from a province that places such a high premium on cultural conformity. She was denounced by a unanimous vote in the Canadian Parliament and sank into a career-ruining depression. The current events magazine Maclean\u2019s ran a cover story in 2010 arguing that Quebec, where old-fashioned mafia collusion between government contractors, unions and politicians is still common, was easily \u201cthe most corrupt province in Canada.\u201d That, too, was denounced by a unanimous vote of Parliament.\nPrivately, English Canadians are far less defensive. They grumble about Quebec\u2019s dark history of anti-Semitism, religious bigotry and pro-fascist sentiment, facts which are rarely included in otherwise self-flagellating official narratives of Canadian history. They complain about the exaggerated deference the province gets from Ottawa as a \u201cdistinct society\u201d and \u201cnation-within-a-nation,\u201d and its various French-supremacist language and assimilation laws, which they blame for creating a place that\u2019s inhospitable, arrogant and, yes, noticeably more racist than the Canadian norm. And now, they have good reason to observe that the province seems to produce an awful lot of lunatics prone to public massacres, who often explicitly justify their violence with arguments of dissatisfaction towards Quebec\u2019s unique culture.\nThe mosque shooting has been quickly politicized by the Canadian left who have seized upon its useful victims to say the sort of things they were going to say anyway: Canada is both a wicked Islamophobic place that must check its various privileges and a multicultural utopia whose pride and empathy for its Muslim community knows no bounds. Rather than drag the entire country along for this tendentious ride, it might be more useful to narrow the focus.",

So \u201cdestabilize\u201d means \u201churts the profits or reputation of\u201d and \u201cbanking system\u201d means \u201cany bank that is pretty big and/or well connected\u201d \u2026 //\n\u2026 It\u2019s important to recognize the timeframe. After the Bear Stearns rescue, the officialdom went into \u201cMission Accomplished\u201d mode. The stock and bond markets rallied and business reporting was generally chipper. Even though Fannie and Freddie were a lingering worry (and the Lehman melodrama kept rattling on), Hank Paulson made his famous bazooka quote in July as he set forth the Administration plan to stabilize the mortgage giants. Even though this period now looks like a brief hiatus, the consensus was that the market upheavals were pretty much over and only some cleanup remained. So the warnings about market manipulation would have been seen as more serious given the then-current prevailing belief that the worst of the crisis was past than they appear given what followed.\nThe New York Fed contends it did address these issues, even thought its Congressional testimony indicated otherwise:\n\u2013A New York Fed spokeswoman said it had determined by \u201cearly 2008\u201d that Libor was unreliable, and briefed officials in the US and UK in an effort to address the flawed rate-setting process in London and possible \u201cconflicts of interest\u201d at the banks.\n\u2013\u201cThe New York Fed developed tough reform proposals including plans for independent audit of Libor submissions to prevent Libor misreporting, whatever the reason, and pressed the UK authorities to adopt them.\u201d\nBut let\u2019s consider the related issue. Geithner\u2019s focus in his previous remarks on Libor manipulation focused on bank trying to pretend they were healthier than they were. Geithner\u2019s failure to acknowledge publicly that the banks were also gaming Libor for fun and profit, whether or not he discussed this with the Bank of England, is yet another cover-up for them.\nAnd it\u2019s an even more pernicious manifestation of the Geithner Doctrine. Not only does it entail refusing to mete out fitting punishment to banks and their executives, it also apparently entails hiding their misdeeds to avoid the annoying game of having to discipline them. After all, if you\u2019re not going to do anything about bad behavior, why do you need to acknowledge that it exists? It\u2019s so much more convenient to maintain the fiction that banks can be relied upon to do the right thing because they\u2019d never want to suffer the reputational damage of being caught out. But with enablers like him, bank criminality would never come to light, by design, ending the fear of reputational harm.\nI had assumed the insufferable arrogance of top bankers, which was a pronounced shift from their fearful state in late 2008 and early 2009, was the result of the Administration\u2019s body language that it was fully committed to throwing its weight behind boosting their profit and their asset prices. But it may have had at least as much to do with their recognition that Geithner would make sure that none of their bad deeds would be punished.\nConstitution will not heal polarised Egypt, by Linda S.

Profanity, fighting and bad sportsmanship are going to be the themes of the season, but I am there just to play. We had our first game Thursday night and we won by a large amount too, something like 9-2? But with the talk of all of the Huskies tryouts and training makes me miss that competitive soccer. There is always the consideration of maybe playing again, but there is also my thoughts of finishing school as soon as possible. The other difficulty is to prove whether I am good enough, where I have to work on my weaknesses such as shooting, fitness and dedication. I was also asked to play with a competitive team from the past, so this may just re-spark my commitment to the game. All I can say is: keep doing what you love.",

Want to secure a free public education in a top-ranked district? Here\u2019s 10 properties on the market now to get that search started. (Star-Ledger)\nWhen Marjon Dean started searching for a new home in the New Jersey suburbs, she first armed herself with data on the top-ranked public schools in the state.\nTaking that information into account, as well as access to public transportation and commute times to New York City, Dean narrowed the list of options for her family\u2019s move to four towns: Summit, Chatham, Millburn and Westfield.\nDean and her husband bought a property that was built in the 1920s and that needed work in the Short Hills section of Millburn in October. The price was $814,000, roughly the same amount the couple received in the sale of their similarly-sized but newer home in the Boston suburbs, Dean said.\n\u201cThere\u2019s definitely a trade-off there,\u201d she said, but added that buying in one of the state\u2019s best school districts is an investment that will pay off for her teenage daughter\u2019s education and for the long-term value of her home.\nMany homebuyers looking for real estate in New Jersey are, like Dean, deciding where to buy based on school rankings, a move that is driving demand and prices in the state\u2019s high-performing school districts, real estate agents say. Those who place a premium on living within the boundaries of one of the state\u2019s best school districts are willing to spend more money and forgo a larger house, a larger yard or up-to-the-moment amenities in order to do so, said Shannon Aronson, a real estate agent with Keller Williams Realty who covers Millburn and surrounding communities.\n\u201cFor people who place a high value on that, it\u2019s completely driving the price because they are not even looking at towns where they can get more value for their money,\u201d said Aronson, who is also a member of the Board of Trustees for the Education Foundation of Millburn-Short Hills, a nonprofit group that raises money for the township\u2019s public schools.\nHome values in the top 10 school districts in the state as ranked by the Pittsburgh-based company Niche range from half a million to nearly $1 million, U.S. Census data shows, with Millburn topping the list at $978,000. By contrast, the median home value is $358,100 in Essex County and $319,900 statewide.",

        "raw_content": "Review: X-Men DOFP\nI\u2019m here again to give my review of the new X-Men Film Days of Future Past. This film, in my opinion, is a turning point for this film franchise. The writers, directors and producers have all explained that they were disappointed with the outcome of X-Men 3: Last Stand, and Days of Future Past is a godsend to help correct those mistakes\u2026\n\"Convinced that mutants pose a threat to humanity, Dr. Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage) develops the Sentinels, enormous robotic weapons that can detect a mutant gene and zero in on that person. In 21st century, the Sentinels have evolved into highly efficient killing machines. With mutants now facing extinction, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) volunteers to go back in time and rally the X-Men of the past to help change a pivotal moment in history and thereby save their future.\"\nRelated: Wolverine gets fired\nNow, in my Review I do not want to give away too much of the film. I would like you, the viewer to form your own opinion of the film and enjoy it like I did. With that being said\u2026 you will see many newer faces from X-Men: First Class and some older faces from X-Men 3: Last Stand. You will also see new characters to the franchise like Bishop, Warpath, Blink, and Magma. The writing is some of the best I\u2019ve seen yet out of a X-Men film -- they really elevated their game on this film and I hope it continues with X-Men: Age of Apocalypse. The special Effects are really something else! I really did enjoy their rendition of Quiksilver and I hope Marvel Studios Version can come close!\nalways enjoy your reviews. Ariel's power confused me, but I am not as familiar with the X-Men as I am with essentially every other character in existence, oddly enough\nHeroclixhater's comment also confuses me.\n\"not as attractive as some people think\".....if people find her attractive, isn't she then, by definition, attractive?\nI always find comments about attractiveness amusing. Only a true comic geek (like me)is so disappointed when the real world isn't filled with stunning ladies and muscular men.\nPosted by: Greth on 7/15/2014 6:57:04 AM\nEnjoyed the movie greatly. I think what I liked most was the mixing of the First Class and other trilogy casts. References to the other movies like when Logan told Xavier to \"forget it\" in First Class were great. Loved seeing new characters added to the cast.\nIf anything, this was really a sequel to First Class, which I really enjoyed. The reset was nice too in bringing back Jean and Scott.\nIn the realm of HeroClix, now I feel the need to hunt down a Deadpool Blink figure for my set.\nI really enjoyed the movie and like the fact that they reset everything that happened in the 3rd movie. Enjoyed the new characters as much as the old. The special effects were awesome, even though I thought they ripped of The Destroyer blasts from the face of the sentinels from Thor. Can't wait for the next movie and hope to see many more X-Men.\nPosted by: ShawnB on 6/1/2014 2:34:37 PM\nFirst of all people need to get over j. Lawerence. Shes not that great and not as attractive as some people think. And why the hell does bryan singer still get high profile jobs after the train wreck that was superman returns and x3? This movie wasnt as bad as spider-man, but its not that good either.\nPosted by: HeroclixHater on 6/1/2014 10:14:12 AM\nJust saw the film yesterday and enjoyed it a lot. Not as good as \"First Class\" in my opinion but then I'm not sure the point was to make the best movie in the franchise but to reboot the franchise a la Star Trek. I'm more excited for future movies now than for Days of Future Past itself.\n@Kragnorak: Genius!!!!\nTotal agreement...\nI was really hoping for the iconic poster.\nThat would have made the movie for me. Just give us a nod to the original iconic cover. It would have made an awesome poster for the movie.\nTo be honest that was really the only thing I was looking for out of the movie.\nok someone is drinking the xmen kool aid i found this to be a Jennifer Lawrence movie,this movies should have stayed in the future where the movie was better.\np.s you really think the sententials in the comics take out the avengers that's why i don't like this storyline.\nPosted by: jwm2567 on 5/30/2014 10:00:02 AM\nLast we saw of Professor X, he had moved his consciousness into a comatose patient at Muir Island. Since he was already setting himself into a morally grey ethical area, he presumably continued to jump bodies until he found a suitable one. His final choice was one Sir Patrick Stewart whose appearance was similar enough to allow Charles to convince himself that the body was meant for him. Although he enjoyed the use of his legs for a few months, the accident-prone telepath soon found himself wheelchair bound after falling down the stairs of a replica space rocket at a Star Trek convention.\nWhile I will say that this movie was much better than X3 and some of the other previous movies, and quite a few errors were corrected, there were still quite a few gaping plot holes. I don't want to say to much and spoil anything for anyone but the largest of course being the obvious, Xavier died at the end of X3 and here is all fine and dandy in this movie. Showing something to explain this would have been nice. Ultimately though I did enjoy the movie and your review. Side note: That's Sunspot, not Magma.",

        "raw_content": "Working in the seedbeds. Courtesy photo.\nNursery pines\nState growing program had strong year\nsmurphy@hippopress.com\nTucked away on 16 acres in Boscawen, seedbeds with dozens of seedling varieties are grown each year by the New Hampshire State Nursery to sell as a main source of funding. This past spring was the nursery\u2019s strongest season in several years; it raised $137,371 by selling 152,410 seedlings.\nAdequate ground coverage was key to this season\u2019s success, according to Shaun Bresnahan, regional forester for the Division of Forest and Lands\u2019 Central Region. The nursery depends on consistent snow coverage over the winter months to insulate the ground and allow seedlings to grow enough before spring. Due to warm temperatures and unreliable snow in the past couple years, Bresnahan said, the nursery\u2019s seedbeds were susceptible to the elements and couldn\u2019t germinate properly.\n\u201cThis year was a good turnaround season for us,\u201d Bresnahan said. \u201cWe also started experimenting with different materials and mulches to help insulate the seedbeds.\u201d\nThe combination of natural and manmade coverage paid off this year. Revenue from the 2018 season increased about 58 percent from the roughly $86,000 the nursery made in 2017. Bresnahan added that this year\u2019s sales were the highest since 2014, when the nursery made about $145,700.\nA typical season\nThe nursery is part of the Division of Forest and Lands, and according to Bresnahan, revenue from selling seedlings and timber is the main source of funding for the nursery\u2019s operations. Bresnahan said the nursery starts planting seedlings in the fall and gets about 90 percent of its seeds from local sources to ensure they\u2019re well-adapted to the New Hampshire climate. A variety of seedlings are offered for sale each year, including fir, spruce, pine, maple, black walnut, oak and an array of conservation shrub seedlings.\nOnce the seedlings are planted in mid-October, the nursery will take an inventory and list its stock in a catalog, which it sends out around Thanksgiving. People who\u2019ve purchased seedlings in the last three years are automatically added to a mailing list, along with anyone who\u2019s asked to be included. A majority of orders are purchased in advance based on the catalog, according to Bresnahan, who said that about $85,000 of the nursery\u2019s revenue from this season came from pre-orders.\nOnce spring hits, the nursery starts harvesting seedlings and fulfilling orders from the previous fall. People are also welcome to purchase seedlings onsite from the middle of April through late May, depending on the season.\nBresnahan said selling seedlings in this time frame mimics the natural awakening process of spring, which is why sales wrap up before summer hits.\n\u201cAs soon as frost comes out of the ground each year, we go into \u2018lifting mode,\u2019 where we remove the seedlings from the ground while they\u2019re still dormant,\u201d said Bresnahan. \u201cWe bring them into our barn where they\u2019re bagged and frozen, and we have about a four-week window to sell them so they stay dormant. By the end of May, survivability goes way down. We tend to get regular rain in the spring, but once you get into summer, you\u2019d better be putting water on [the seedlings].\u201d\nThat\u2019s especially true for this summer, according to Bresnahan. The lack of rain and high temperatures have prompted the nursery to focus more heavily on watering efforts and applying fabric covers to shade plants so they do not get hit by full sunlight and dry out.\n\u201cIf we get a quarter to a half inch of rain a week, that\u2019s all we need, but we haven\u2019t been getting that,\u201d he said.\nOnce the season closes, Bresnahan said, the nursery is mostly in maintenance mode. All but three acres have actively growing seed beds right now, with the nursery rotating these remaining three acres every two years to grow \u201cgreen manure.\u201d The nursery typically uses millet, and just as it produces a seed head, Bresnahan said, they plow the crop under so it can break down and add more organic matter into the soil.\nThough seedlings won\u2019t be available for sale onsite until next season, Bresnahan said the nursery is open to the public Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and encouraged anyone to stop by the facilities (405 Daniel Webster Highway, Boscawen).",

        "raw_content": "Isn't what it used to be\n28.05.2012. Recent analyses of the human genome reveal a huge number of rare\u2014and therefore probably fairly new\u2014mutations, writes Matt Ridley in The Wall Street Journal. He continues:\nIf you write about genetics and evolution, one of the commonest questions you are likely to be asked at public events is whether human evolution has stopped. It is a surprisingly hard question to answer.\nSo we're evolving as a species toward greater individual (rather than racial) genetic diversity. But this isn't what most people mean when they ask if evolution has stopped. Mainly they seem to mean: \"Has brain size stopped increasing?\" For a process that takes millions of years, any answer about a particular instant in time is close to meaningless. Nonetheless, the short answer is probably \"yes.\"\nI say this for two reasons. First, it's clear, from glancing around society, that clever people\u2014who on average have slightly bigger brains\u2014aren't having more babies than less-clever people. Second, the fossil record strongly suggests that our brain size peaked at 1,500 cubic centimeters around 20,000 years ago and has since shrunk to 1,350 cc.\nThis neither worries nor surprises me. We ceased relying upon individual brain power tens of thousands of years ago. Our civilization now gets all its inventive and creative power from the linking of brains into networks. Our future depends on being clever not individually, but collectively.\nRace war in the USA\nMedia censorship is beginning to attract more attention\n18.05.2012. The media ignore racially motivated black-on-white crime, writes black author and researcher Thomas Sowell in National Review Online.\nAdded 25.05.2012: Should Black People Tolerate This?.\nAccount for under half of births in the USA\n18.05.2012. After years of speculation, estimates and projections, the Census Bureau has made it official: White births are no longer a majority in the United States. Continue reading in The New York Times.\nDishonest editing\n18.05.2012. Actual conversation between George Zimmerman and a dispatcher in the moments before the death of Trayvon Martin:\nHowever, somebody at NBC chose to edit this down to the following:\nAccording to a statement from NBC:\nWe have launched an internal investigation into the editorial process surrounding this particular story\nRead more at The washington Post. At least three people appear to have lost their jobs at NBC over this story, according English sources quoted by Document.no.\nThe color of crime\n11.05.2012, In a delicious piece of \"gotcha\" reporting (of the very best kind), Kyle Rogers exposes the disingenuous hive-mind of the media establishment when it comes to their (non-)reportage of Black-on-White violent crime. Rogers has pursued this issue indefatigably of late, naming names and exposing rampant bad faith and glaring double standards in the process. In this article, however, we witness him ambushing one particularly dodgy and dishonest scribbler with incisive questions that leave the hapless man squirming, sweating, and desperately defensive. It's a brilliant and beautiful moment of guerilla journalism, which really needs to be read to be appreciated. Thus begins Andy Nowicki his article at AltRight.\nHonestThinking comments: There can hardly be any doubt that there is indeed a double standard being applied here. Some times the media are just too eager to highlight race. At other times they do their best to hide the issue. This is dishonest. This is disgusting. This is betraying the trust that the general public must have in the media in a true democracy.\nBeing destroyed by the ANC\n11.05.2012. Here is a list of these worthy sacrifices posted on Facebook by one of my South African friends, Raymond Wilson, writes Colin Liddell at AltRight:\nHanding an amazing country over to a Pro-Marxist ANC Government who \"negotiated\" whilst continuing their \"armed struggle\"The total breakdown of law and order\nThe systematic theft and corruption that resulted in the destruction of world class hospitals\nThe replacement of honest and hard working police personnel with former criminals and murderers\nEroding the once mighty and highly respected South African Defence Force into a ragtag, undisciplined army, where most combat soldiers are over 40 years of age and HIV positive\nThe corruption that saw the South African armed forces spend US$ 5.5 billion on weapons ill suited to African conditions\nThe systematic racial attacks on law-abiding White citizens whose only crime was voting in favour of change during the last Whites-only referendums\nThe orchestrated and senseless attacks on and murder of White farmers\nThe collapse of the education system, with the government dumbing down standards rather than attempting to improve the state education system\nCorruption at every level of government with nepotism at every level that results in family members and friends of the government being awarded lucrative state tenders\nThe ANC government propping up the Mugabe regime and supplying Africa's most undemocratic despot state with electricity whilst ordinary South Africans suffer with daily power cuts\nThe militarisation of 3000 ANC youths under the \"Narysec\" program where they will receive two years of advanced military training by the SADF\nThe new and unjustified e-Toll system where motorists have to pay toll fee to use existing roads. This practice being brought in without any consultation or negotiation, however \"black taxis\" are exempt\nThe list is endless and if this is the price we have had to pay for freedom, I think we'd be better off if S.A. had stayed the way it was under Apartheid.\nProfessor at Brooklyn College reports from Norway\n08.05.2012 (updated 09.05.2012). A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting with Professor Moustafa Bayoumi during his visit to Norway. He has written an article for The Nation, summarizing his findings after talking to several people in various Norwegian cities; Breivik's Monstrous Dream\u2014and Why It Failed. Also available at the Democracy gone Astray blog.\nErratum: In said article yours truly is presented as \u00aban evangelical Christian\u00bb. This, however, is not correct. While I did indeed grow up in an evangelical church, and continued to be active in evangelical circles for about twenty years beyond adolescence, towards the end of 1998 it dawned on me (after years of intellectual struggles) that I could no longer subscribe to the core beliefs of evangelicalism. For the record: I still consider myself a theist who identifies with the Christian message.\nA classical article from The New York Times\n06.05.2012. I was recently made aware of Richard Bernstein's article from 1990, viz Ideas & Trends; The Rising Hegemony of the Politically Correct. Here are some excerpts:\nInstead of writing about literary classics and other topics, as they have in the past, freshmen at the University of Texas next fall will base their compositions on a packet of essays on discrimination, affirmative-action and civil-rights cases. The new program, called \"Writing on Difference,\" was voted in by the faculty last month and has been praised by many professors for giving the curriculum more relevance to real-life concerns. But some see it as a stifling example of academic orthodoxy.\n\"You cannot tell me that students will not be inevitably graded on politically correct thinking in these classes,\" Alan Gribben, a professor of English, said at the time the change was being discussed.\nThe term \"politically correct,\" with its suggestion of Stalinist orthodoxy, is spoken more with irony and disapproval than with reverence. But across the country the term p.c., as it is commonly abbreviated, is being heard more and more in debates over what should be taught at the universities. There are even initials -- p.c.p. -- to designate a politically correct person. And though the terms are not used in utter seriousness, even by the p.c.p.'s themselves, there is a large body of belief in academia and elsewhere that a cluster of opinions about race, ecology, feminism, culture and foreign policy defines a kind of \"correct\" attitude toward the problems of the world, a sort of unofficial ideology of the university.\nLast weekend, a meeting of the Western Humanities Conference in Berkeley, Calif., was called \" 'Political Correctness' and Cultural Studies,\" and it examined what effect the pressure to conform to currently fashionable ideas is having on scholarship.\nCentral to p.c.-ness, which has roots in 1960's radicalism, is the view that Western society has for centuries been dominated by what is often called \"the white male power structure\" or \"patriarchal hegemony.\" A related belief is that everybody but white heterosexual males has suffered some form of repression and been denied a cultural voice or been prevented from celebrating what is commonly called \"otherness.\"\n[...] The view that Western civilization is inherently unfair to minorities, women and homosexuals has been at the center of politically correct thinking on campuses ever since the recent debate over university curriculums began.\nAffirmative action is politically correct. So too are women's studies, gay and lesbian studies, and African-American studies, all of which are strongly represented in the scholarly panels at such professional meetings as those of the American Historical Association and the Modern Language Association. [...]\nThe cluster of politically correct ideas includes a powerful environmentalism and, in foreign policy, support for Palestinian self-determination and sympathy for third world revolutionaries, particularly those in Central America. Biodegradable garbage bags get the p.c. seal of approval. Exxon does not.\nBut more than an earnest expression of belief, \"politically correct\" has become a sarcastic jibe used by those, conservatives and classical liberals alike, to describe what they see as a growing intolerance, a closing of debate, a pressure to conform to a radical program or risk being accused of a commonly reiterated trio of thought crimes: sexism, racism and homophobia.\n\"It's a manifestation of what some are calling liberal fascism,\" said Roger Kimball, the author of \"Tenured Radicals,\" a critique of what he calls the politicization of the humanities. \"Under the name of pluralism and freedom of speech, it is an attempt to enforce a narrow and ideologically motivated view of both the curriculum and what it means to be an educated person, a responsible citizen.\"\nCertain subjects, such as affirmative action and homosexuality, have been removed from civil debate, Mr. Kimball says, so strong is the force to accept the politically correct view. More accurately, perhaps, the figures on campuses opposed to affirmative action, for example, are regarded as radicals of the right.\nSome of the intolerance of the p.c. point of view comes from conservatives like Mr. Kimball and Allan Bloom, the author of \"The Closing of the American Mind,\" who complain that there is a hidden radical agenda in university curriculums. The p.c.p.'s respond that they are reacting to an orthodoxy set in place by the traditionalists.\nDrawing on the theories of Marxist and deconstructionist literary critics, some even question the very notion that there is such a thing as disinterested, objective scholarship. Some conservatives see a paradox in this.\n\"Those who are critics of objectivity, who reject claims about standards and quality, contradict themselves in believing so powerfully that they are the holders of the only truth,\" said Leon Botstein, the president of Bard College. Mr. Botstein, a critic of both the p.c.p.'s and their conservative adversaries, feels that the universities are being polarized into two intolerant factions. \"The idea of candor and the deeper idea of civil discourse is dead,\" he said. \"The victims are the students.\"\nRead the entire article at NYT.

        "raw_content": "How to / Vacations / Vacations / Choose Your Perfect Skiing Vacations In Bulgaria\nChoose Your Perfect Skiing Vacations In Bulgaria\nBulgaria is located in the southeast of Europe and borders Romania, Serbia, Macedonia, Greece and Turkey and is one of the most visited destinations for Bulgaria vacations. Its major source of economic growth is through its tourism industry. Statistics show that in 2008 Bulgaria was visited by 8.9 million tourists. Most of the tourists are from Bulgaria\u2019s neighboring lands which are Greece, Romania and Germany. However, even after the frequency of tourist visits, the industry is poorly developed. It is not advertised properly and the visitors are handled poorly. However, do not let these setbacks affect you. You can still plan Bulgaria vacations.\nThe country has preserved its traditions of the first Bulgarian empire. Hence, Bulgaria vacations are ideal for kids because they can learn about history, enjoying at the same time; the country came under The Ottoman rule which stayed for almost five centuries. Bulgaria was reestablished as a monarchy after the Russo-Turkish war and after the treaty of San Stefano, the third Bulgarian kingdom emerged. World War II changed Bulgaria into a communist state. However, in 1990 the communist party gave up and Bulgaria turned into a democratic state.\nThere are many tourist attractions in Bulgaria for different things such as sea resorts such as Sozopol, Nessebur, Golden Sands and others. The weather also supports these beach resorts and during winters the ski resorts become everyone\u2019s favorite. The night life is very famous due to the discos, which immensely attract the tourists. There are many recreational activities available as well, such as mountain biking and mountain hiking. These recreational activities enable the tourist to bond with nature. However, skiing is the most famous tourist attraction known in Bulgaria. Bulgaria is emerging as the most visited tourist attraction for skiing after Andorra, which has given up its claim to the title. It is a great family activity and if you are planning to go to Bulgaria for that, then the mountain lodge is the ideal family destination because it is comfortable, completely furnished and provides a homely touch. The best time to go is in March because of the heavy snowfall during this time. If you buy a ski pass for 6 days it will cost you around 255 lev. This winter trip will definitely suit your budget along with your tastes. It provides recreation and knowledge at the same time. If you are planning to relax and have fun, Bulgaria vacation is for you. Moreover, due to the abundance of hotels, overcrowding is avoided. Bansko is known for the best quality equipments; you can travel to Bansko by flying to Sofia and then moving to Bansko which is around 160 km.\nTherefore, Bulgaria is an ideal family destination if you can tolerate a tad of disorganization. However, this can always be ignored by looking at the bright side\u2014the amount of money being saved. Its beautiful mountainous terrains are perfect for any skier and the fact that it is budget friendly adds to the attraction. Bulgaria is emerging as a great tourist attraction. However, until one visits it, one cannot judge the place. Therefore, this time plan Bulgaria vacations with your family.\nChoose Your Perfect Skiing Vacations In Bulgaria . 4 of 5 based on 10 votes.",

However, the interests of the companies differed in several ways, primarily regarding patents and other terms and conditions with a direct impact on which medicines are sold in Denmark. The generics companies thus broke away from Lif to form IGL.\nIn 2015, it was decided to add \u201cBiosimilars\u201d to the name of IGL since these medicines has a growing importance on the Danish Market.",

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) however, claimed the \"spacecraft is in normal health\" and will try to push it to the planned distance early on Tuesday (Nov. 12).\nISRO said, its scientists tested the autonomy functions of the spacecraft progressively during the orbit-raising operations since November 7 that are essential for Trans-Mars Injection and Mars Orbit Insertion.\nIndia's maiden interplanetary mission was launched on November 05. The spacecraft will orbit Earth for 25 days before attaining speed to catapult its way out of earth's gravitational pull on its 780-million-km flight to the Red Planet.\nIndia's mission made to international headlines for being cost-effective at Rs. 450 crores or approximately 71 million US dollars as against NASA's MAVEN at a cost of 2.5 billion US dollars.\nMars Orbiter or 'Mangalyaan' will have to travel more than 200 million kilometers before it reaches the orbit around the Red Planet in September, 2014.\nWith the successful launch of the spacecraft, India joins the select club of spacefaring nations to attempt this feat.

Chinese and Japanese missions however, failed.",

        "raw_content": "Do you want to know the one thing that can help you win the battle of the bulge? That\u2019s right \u2013 water! Most doctors agree that you should be drinking at least several eight ounce glasses of water per day as is, but if you\u2019re looking to lose weight, it\u2019s not a bad idea to carry a bottle of water around with you wherever you go.\nWhy? Well, for one, water helps fill your stomach. Of course we\u2019re not suggesting that you skip out on meals in favour of water, but staying well hydrated can help you manage your food cravings. Many people eat when instead their bodies are actually craving water! Keeping a bottle of water at your side throughout the day helps stave off the cravings to eat, and will keep you fuller for a longer period of time after meals. Another great trick using water to help you lose weight, is to take a sip of water between every bite of food you eat during your meal. This also helps fill your stomach and lets you eat slower, so your stomach has time to transmit the signals of fullness to your brain. Many people keep eating long after their stomach is actually full, and pausing for water is a way to help your body register its food intake before the damage is done.\nHowever, drinking water can be a total budget breaker if you are buying bottled water. The proliferation of bottled water in our society has reached epic proportions \u2013 to the point where some states have actually launched campaigns to educate consumers that tap water is drinkable. Remember that: tap water is entirely drinkable in most parts of the world, and there is absolutely no reason to go out and spend twenty dollars on bottled water every week.\nInstead, why not spend five dollars on a reusable water bottle and keep on filling it up? It\u2019s a great way to not only be health conscious and cost conscious, but also environmentally conscious! Think of all those used plastic water bottles that end up in the landfills each year. It\u2019s totally wasteful and needless, seeing as how tap water is drinkable everywhere in the United States, South Africa and pretty much anywhere in Europe etc. Even restaurants will give it to you for free.\nOne thing we should point out though, while we are on the subject\u2026 It is NOT advisable to keep reusing the plastic bottles that water or other soft drinks are packaged in. This is because these bottles are designed to breakdown more easily, and they emit harmful chemicals that can cause cancer etc when they do. For this reason, you should buy a decent reusable water bottle instead.\nSo, be a smart dieter and an even smarter consumer by not giving in to the bottled water companies. You\u2019ll save hundreds if not thousands of dollars a year by sticking to tap water and reusable bottles, and you\u2019ll be saving the environment at the same time. Oh, and losing weight of course!\nHow about you? Have you got any tips or tricks of your own when it comes to water and dieting?

        "raw_content": "Some companies use our incubation facilities. Some others don\u2019t since they are already big enough to support their operations. This is fine with us since we want to provide value where it is needed. What gives us great confidence is that all portfolio companies (new or old, successful or not) want to spend numerous office hours with us to listen to our advice or engage us to assist them. The satisfaction we get every time we succeed in offering value is 10x the one we get after we patricipate in a funding round.\nThere were also failures and teams who seized their operations. But I guess this (apart from a natural law) is also a sign of maturity in the context of knowing when to \u201cpull the plug\u201d and move on.\nThere\u2019s no exit yet, however all our portfolio companies are still very early in the startup cycle. We see very promising signs and patience is one of our virtues after all.\nLast but not least I would like to personally thank Quest Holdings for their ongoing support by investing their own, 100% private, hardly gained proceeds. You see, during the last four years the \u201cJeremie Funds Phenomenon\u201d was the number one catalyst in creating the so called greek startup ecosystem. On the other hand all these headlines about big funding rounds in multimillion valuations, created to some of us, a distorted sense of the value and supply of money (interestingly though not so much to the ones who really managed to raise funds). We must not forget that private investors in Greece (especially when it comes to high risk early stage investments) are still very rare \u201canimals\u201d and that the long term sustainability of the ecosystem depends highly on including, maintaining and expanding the local investor base willing to be engaged.",

        "title": "\u00bb Chapter Two In the Iron Cage",
        "raw_content": "March 27th, 2011 Comments Off on Chapter Two\nIn 1942 Lencho\u2019s two boys, Juan and Jose, decided to leave home in Sugar Land and go to Galveston Texas, here it was rumored, there were many jobs, thanks to the war fueled economy. Ernesto Rodriguez believes his two brothers left home willingly because of fights they had had with their father over their use of marijuana, even then a popular drug among Mexican teenagers. In Galveston they would be spared their daddy\u2019s well meaning, if sometimes brutal, efforts to discipline children and there, at least, they wouldn\u2019t get all the flak from Lencho if they did something he disapproved of. It was a chance to spread their wings.\nGalveston during the war years was a totally corrupted place, once called the \u201cPlayground of The South\u201d, a twenty four hour a day city which could boast of most of the vices commonly associated with port towns. There were wall-to-wall whorehouses on Post office Street and thanks to three shifts at the ship repair yard, the non-stop loading and unloading of ships, and the large number of servicemen, there were drunks staggering the streets around the clock. Sailors, marines, merchant seamen, and defense workers crowed the bars and brothels, which were legal in Galveston in those days. Gambling was commonplace, with \u201cOne Arm Bandits\u201d every where, supplies of heroin were abundant, and an Italian named Sam Macio (pronounced May-seo) was reputedly the capo in charge of the town\u2019s sporting and social activities. The opportunities for skimming, partnerships, and payoffs were limited only by the size of the city and the financial needs of Galveston\u2019s politicians, which is to say there was plenty of business for Sam.\nSeveral months after Juan and Jose moved away from home they sent word up to Sugar Land that there were jobs for the asking in Galveston. Packing up their five remaining children, Lencho and Jesusa responded quickly and joined the two older boys in Galveston, where Lencho was not to be disappointed in his search for a job paying more than he received from the Marshall Canning Company. He quickly landed one as a tack welder with the Cain boiler Works at sixty cents an hour, but after a few months tired of the eye strain he experienced in the work, he quit to open his own little caf\u00e9. Sobre Las Olas. It was the first of several he was to operate in Galveston.\nThere was no problem connected with the move because Lencho and his family moved in the building where his sons lived, a big white frame house one in which the boys paid five dollars a week for room and board. With all nine of the family reunited, they took over half of the second floor of the not so fancy two story building.\nIt is not known whether Lencho knew what he was doing at the time but the new lodgings he selected for his family were located smack dab in the middle of Galveston\u2019s whorehouse district, which in those days thrived as never before. In using the term \u201csmack dab in the middle\u201d I do not mean to suggest that there were brothels in a mixed neighborhood comprised of ma and pa grocery stores, a caf\u00e9 here and there, and a Christian science Reading Room. That wasn\u2019t the case at all. 2710 Post Office Street, where the Rodriguez\u2019 lived was the only building on the street in that block and for blocks around that wasn\u2019t a whorehouse. Scantily clad women of varying dimensions and origins graced the windows and balconies of the entire neighborhood, advertising their qualifications for the profession of their choice.\nAs Ernesto remembers the neighborhood, it had been many moons since the young ladies in his neighborhood had played \u201cpost office,\u201d the children\u2019s old kissing game, it being much more likely they had moved straight from \u201cdoctor\u2019s game\u201d to the hard stuff. Not wishing their city to acquire a bad reputation with its visitors, the city fathers insisted that all licensed whores received periodic physical exams, a requirement only slightly better than no check-up at all, considering the volume of business done in those war years.\nThe most colorful members of Galveston\u2019s urban life were the whores, the young ladies who strutted the streets, wore their finery with great \u00e9lan. They were the big spenders. Because mid day was a slack time for them, it was during those hours they patronized the city\u2019s restaurants and stores. For the most part Anglos, Mexicans, and Cubans\u2013the Blacks were segregated\u2013the ladies developed a symbiotic relationship with the Galveston street boys, promising them one \u201cfreebie\u201d for every ten paying customers they boys referred to them. With most of the very young boys the promise of sex held less appeal then did the accessibility of the houses\u2019 gambling devices: pin ball machines, slot machines, peg board games, and so forth. The odds offered by the whorehouse machines were twice as favorable to the gambler as they were in other business establishments. Kids who learned how to cheat the machines\u2013they did this by hitting the handle hard and quickly to start the machine , then if the machine showed a jackpot, they would quickly insert a coin in the slot and if the machine stopped on the jackpot, they would quickly hit the handle to drop the coin in and the machine would pay off\u2013if it stopped on the jackpot. Kid who did this and were caught by Sam Macio\u2019s men were beaten severely and kicked out of town!\nThe Rodriguez\u2019 home at 2710 Post Office Street was designed much like a small two story hotel, with an entrance, stairway, and a corridor on both floors separating the five rooms on either side of the building. Except for two connected rooms at the end of the corridor, it was necessary for a person to step out into the hallway to enter the adjacent rooms. The family solved the space problem by putting the three girls in one small room, the three boys in another, and the parents\u2013when they weren\u2019t accusing each other of infidelity\u2013slept in a third. The two connected rooms at the end of the corridor served as the living room and kitchen. With a few plumbing changes 2710 was easily convertible to a sporting palace.\nTwo of the boys in the building became very good friends of Ernesto. One was Albert Saucedo, known to his pals as \u201cSkinny Albert,\u201d and the other\u2013his closest friend\u2013was Antonio Galicia, the son of the family who leased the entire building from its owners and who, in turn, subleased it to the Rodriguez\u2019 and other families. At least young Ernesto had two friends who could side him in the many fights that became part of his Galveston life.\nTo get to school from his house at 27th and Post Office Street Ernesto walked twelve blocks, about one mile, to the Goliad Elementary School, which accepted White children and Mexicans, but not Blacks. The Black children had their own segregated school which, unfortunately, lay directly in the path many Mexicans and Whites were forced to take on their way to Goliad. Taunting and stone throwing by one side or the other was the daily drill and very often it led to fights on the way to or from school, fights which might easily have been avoided by walking a block or two out of the way to bypass the Black school. Ernesto was not the type of little Mexican boy to take even ten extra steps to avoid a fight. Using his fists and feet, he showed early signs of becoming a first rate street fighter. This, of course, caused new problems and new fights because, like famous gun slingers of yore, he was often put to test. He had a rep, one he built on until 1980. On the way to or from school his principal opponents were two Black boys, brothers named Bobo and Roscoe. (Roscoe later died when he dove from the deck of an empty cargo ship and became ensnared in an underwater obstacle, barbed wire. By the time rescuers found his body several days later, most of it had been consumed by crabs.)\nFor the most part, fights at school took place along ethnic lines, Mexicans against Anglos. But not always. If Ernesto was caught during recess talking to a little girl some other boy thought was his, fists flew. Even an unwillingness to share a cigarette with his seven year old classmates at Goliad Elementary School could precipitate a fight. One of the things he says he never dared do was to play hooky. To do that was to court his father\u2019s wrath, something certainly to be avoided because his father was bigger than he was and pulled off his belt with the slightest provocation. But Ernesto found a safer way to avoid going to school; he went to sleep in school and was sent home. The little boy really was tired\u2013he wasn\u2019t faking\u2013because the night time activities of Galveston\u2019s streets and alleys were of considerable interest to him and others in his crowd. He didn\u2019t have to worry about making a noise when he came home, the stairs creaking or stuff like that, because he and his brothers had a room separate from their parents and he could let himself in or out with no one the wiser. Unless the weather was bad on the days he was caught sleeping in school he went to the beach to play rather than go home to catch up on his rest.\nA fight with his mother Ernesto still remembers having was over a twenty-five cent piece. Often when Lencho whiled away time in a caf\u00e9\u2013his own or someone else\u2019s\u2013little Ernesto visited him. He had learned that his father would usually give him small change\u2013five cents, ten cents, or even a quarter\u2013to beat it, get lost. On one such occasion Lencho had given him a quarter and Ernesto gave the money to his mother for safekeeping, to be used for food the following school day. The next morning when he was leaving for school he asked for his quarter and Jesusa gave him one, but it was not the same quarter he had given her. The date and the identifying letter on the quarter of those days was different. He wanted his own quarter back. Mother and son wrangled for half an hour and finally Jesusa lost patience and threw a fifty cent piece out into the street, yelling that it was worth two quarters and that he should get off to school.\nThe money was important because no breakfasts were served at home and for ten cents Ernesto could buy three sugar glazed donuts on the way to school and still have fifteen cents left over for a five cent bag of potato chips, and a three cent soda water, Big R.C., and still have seven cents which he could use to see a five cent movie at the Dixie Theater on Market Street, and still have two cents to buy two \u201call day suckers\u201d for a penny. That he thought, was worth fighting for. He did not know the real value of a \u201chalf dollar.\u201d\nScampering out in the street, the argumentative little nine year old picked up the fifty cent piece and threw it back at his mother. He wanted his own quarter back, not money that wasn\u2019t his.\nJesusa blew her top and chased after her son, screaming, \u201cHuerco cabron chingado!\u201d (You worthless little son-of-a-bitch).\nBeing much faster than his mother, Ernesto leaped and splashed across a big puddle which stopped his mother dead in her tracks. The furious Jesusa picked up an empty Coke bottle and hurled it at her son, missing, only to discover that the huerco cabron chingado threw it back at her. He was being a real brat and the loving mother was madder than ever.\nErnesto ran around the corner of the block accompanied by his Mother\u2019s swearing and circled back to his house, where he climbed up the ceramic drain pipe that led to the one bathroom window, he locked himself in and waited for the screaming and yelling of his mother and the neighbor to die down. What he didn\u2019t know was that his mother was baiting a trap for him with the help of Lupita Corona, the neighbor woman upstairs and across the hall.\nLittle Ernesto had not had a bite to eat that morning., he was feeling pangs of hunger, and soon the smell of cooking beans and frying tortillas drifted under the door of his toilet sanctuary. Not caring much whether he went to school or not, he knew he had been feeling argumentative all morning. What was bothering him now, filling all of this thoughts, was food.\n\u201cErnesto,\u201d he heard Lupita\u2019s voice call out, \u201cI have some nice beans, and the tortillas are ready. Would you like to eat some? They are very good. I am having some.\u201d\nThe young boy ignored the invitation the first time, but the delicious smells grew stronger, more enticing, and the second time he was invited he unlocked the door and joined Lupita in her apartment. Starving the way he was, he thought it very kind of her to share her frijoles with him.\nNo sooner was he in her apartment than Lupita slammed the door and braced her back against it. \u201cSusie! Susie!\u201d she yelled at Jesusa, \u201cI\u2019ve got him. I\u2019ve got him. Help! Quick!.\u201d\nMoments later, Jesusa, carrying a long length of rope, let herself into the room and the struggle between the two grown women and the nine year old boy began. Tying his hands behind his back, his arms to his side, and putting a halter around his neck, Jesusa led her son down the stairs to their own apartment. Screaming epithets at him while she dragged him along by the neck, the loving mother made sure he didn\u2019t escape again until his father came home. She tied poor little Ernesto, who was now completely naked, to the couch, a place where he would have ample time to think about his father\u2019s leather belt.\nWhen Lencho returned that night and learned of his son\u2019s peccadillos, off came his leather belt and punishment followed. Lencho\u2019s belt was only a standard width but to the little boy it looked and felt like it was one quarter inch thick and six inches wide. Spare the belt and spoil the child, Lencho believed Ernesto was spared nothing that night.\nMost of the important things to be learned in the city were forcefully and vividly taught. For the young children in the whorehouse district sex education was along audio-visual lines, learning made possible by open windows and only partially drawn shades. It was very easy for children tall enough to look into a first floor window to sneak along the spaces between the houses and get a close-up view of grown-ups in action.\nWhen Ernesto was ten years old he describes himself as being \u201cstill basically honest.\u201d He didn\u2019t want to accept money from other boys who had picked drunks\u2019 pockets because while his newspaper sales didn\u2019t earn him much, it was at least honest money. Then one day his attitude changed; he found a five dollar bill under a table on the floor of a restaurant and took it home to show his father.\nWhen the boy explained how he found the money, Lencho asked, \u201cAre you sure you\u2019re telling me the truth?\u201d\n\u201cI told him I was,\u201d Ernesto remembers, \u201cbut my father hit me a hell of a hard blow on the side of my head. I even showed him how it had been folded and described everything to him, but he just yelled, \u2018You stole this god dam money!\u2019 It made a deep impression on me and I started to think more about money.\u201d\nSoon Ernesto joined his friends in stealing and robbing. The thought came to his mind of \u201cbuying a suit, tie, and a pretty scarf.\u201d He began to burglarize with them and doing whatever else struck their fancy. They did it after store hours, posted sentries, and were never caught.\nNext it was bicycles. He asked Lencho for money to buy one and was told to go out and earn the money for it. As Ernesto says, \u201cI shined shoes. I swept out four barber shops who let me shine shoes there. I could never save up any money and then I bought a lock, a combination lock. My father asked me why I bought that and I told him that when I bought my bicycle I could put it on so no one would steal it. But I was never able to save enough. Frank Capiano, one of the older boys and kind of a leader in the neighborhood, tried very hard to get me involved in robbing soldiers and sailors. I saw that other kids were involved in stealing bicycles and finally I went from these little piddly robberies, like stealing yo-yos from Kress\u2019, nickel and dine stores, to bicycles. I stole them for parts for my friends, stuff like that. We went on a spree and we were stealing on the average about six a day. We stripped them and kept everything except the frame, which had the serial number on it. Then we\u2019d buy an old bicycle, get the papers with the serial number, and put new parts on the frame and sell it.\n\u201cI was about ten when I got my own bike\u201d, Ernesto remembers. \u201cMy father was too busy to know, to see, what I was doing. And My oldest brother, Paco, (Juan) told my dad that I had a closet full of tires, bicycle parts, and said, \u201cThe kid\u2019s out stealing bicycles, he\u2019s asked you for the longest time, and you refuse to get him one. Now he\u2019s got his bicycle and it\u2019s all stolen stuff.\u201d Paco, probably gave him some money and made my dad buy me a brand new bicycle. Then they tried to get me to get rid of all the parts I had accumulated. But by that time I was kind of deep into the business so I just moved the stuff over to a friend\u2019s garage and anytime he sold something we split the money.\u201d\nAbout two years after Lencho had moved his family to 2710 Post Office Street the owners of the building who rented the house to the Galicia family decided they could realize a greater return on their investment by changing its thrust. Thus it was; they converted their property to a whorehouse in order to take advantage of the booming business and easy availability of both the management and the individual talent Sam Macio\u2019s organization could identify and procure. The revenue from the girls and the slot machines which graced each whorehouse parlor would push them into a higher income bracket but there were plenty of accountants around to handle that problem.\nThe Rodriguez\u2019 were forced to move to an apartment on 21St Street, a full two blocks away from the closest house of ill repute. Staying there for only a short time, they reunited with the Galicia family a few months later at 309\u00bd Tremont Street. It was when he was still living on 21st Street that the ten year old Ernesto witnessed an event which was to have a decisive influence on his later life. He saw a knife fight in an alley on 21st and State Street, home.\nThe alleys in Galveston were where all the action was. That\u2019s where neighborhood gangs fought, where drunks were rolled, where teenagers made love, and where knife fighting took place. It was in one of those alleys he watched two men fight it out, one using his fists and the other using a knife. When the yells and cursing were silenced, the man using only his fists lay bleeding in the alley and the knife fighter was long gone before the ambulance arrived.\nAs Ernesto tells it, \u201cIt was then I learned a big lesson. I found out how important it was to have an equalizer. And later when I was in prison, where all knives are strictly forbidden, I learned it was much safer to be caught with one than without one. I never had much money so I went to Kress\u2019 and stole a boy scout knife.\u201d\nSelf defense was uppermost in his mind in those days because one of the neighborhood boys named Joe, who was called \u201cJew Baby\u201d picked on the young Rodriguez. He was quite a bit larger than the ten year old. It had all started down at the Greyhound Bus Station on 21st and State Street, where the boys picked up and were paid for the newspapers they sold on the streets for Mr. Simon.\nAfter one of those days Joe had approached Ernesto. In the alley, \u201cHey, kid how much money did you make today? Let\u2019s see.\u201d\nWhen the younger boy innocently held out his hand and showed Joe the pennies, nickels, and dimes he had earned. Joe slapped the hand, scattering the money and driving off Ernesto.\n\u201cAfter that happened to me I decided I had to do something about Jew Baby. And that knife fight I had seen gave me the answer. I would use my equalizer.\u201d\nErnesto\u2019s new school, San Jacinto Elementary, sent many of its boys to the Y.M.C.A. and there, taught by a Mexican who later fought professionally, young Ernesto learned how to box. But since knife fighting wasn\u2019t part of the curriculum at the \u201cY\u201d, the techniques of the sport had to be passed around by word of mouth or observed whenever possible in a good pirate movie. Sword fighting and knife fighting were watched with avid interest in the local movie houses by Galveston\u2019s street children. Admission to the city\u2019s cheaper theatres cost kids only four cents and the places were jammed when they showed good fight scenes.\nThe black theatres, the Dixie, the Carver and the Booker T. Washington, were fully integrated but the White owned theatres were segregated and required all Blacks to use the balcony. The black owned theatres showed many westerns in which the entire cast, ranch owners, rustlers, cowboys, were black actors, thereby giving the young Rodriguez a rather unusual view of how the West was won. \u201cIt was blacks against indians, which took some of the heat off the pale faces.\u201d Rodriguez said jokingly.\nErnesto showed signs of guile at an early age. To get the predatory Joe off his back, a necessary change if he was going to be able to keep his own earnings. Ernesto lured the bigger boy into an alley at the bus depot. He had told Joe that he had made quite a bit of money that day and that if Joe would go into the alley with him they could count the money and share it. Ernesto didn\u2019t want to fight with him anymore.\n\u201cOh, yeah,\u201d said Joe. \u201cLet\u2019s go.\u201d\n\u201cSo we went into the alley,\u201d Ernesto explained, \u201cand instead of pulling out my money I pulled out this knife and told him, \u201cThis is all you\u2019re going to get, you son-of-a-bitch\u201d and I went to stab at him like I had seen that guy do in the alley, y\u2019know, and Jew Baby squeezed in between the brick wall and the telephone pole that was there and took off on a dead run! It looked like he left part of his coat hanging\u2019 on the post when he came out the other side of it. I really didn\u2019t want to stab him. I didn\u2019t know how to use a knife, but wanted to make him think I really wanted to get him. He ran about three blocks and I was right behind him, pretending\u2019 I was trying\u2019 to cut the cheeks of his ass. And everybody was hollering \u201cGet him! Get him!\u201d I was chasing Jew Baby down the street and I was just a little kid. He was scared to death I was going to cut him and I was just a little kid. that\u2019s when I learned first hand what knives can do, specially for kids in tough neighborhoods.\n\u201cThere were a lot of drunks and people trying to pick on kids so we resorted to weapons, either blackjacks, zip guns, pipes, bricks, or big rocks, stuff like that.\u201d\nThe Boy Scout motto \u201cBe Prepared\u201d was quickly adopted by the young Ernesto and there were few times after that episode with Joe that found him without a knife in his pockets. But being prepared was about the only aspect of scouting that held much appeal to him. He certainly doesn\u2019t remember helping any old ladies across the street and if he helped any drunks get from one side to the other it was for the purpose of picking their pockets.\nOne episode that remains as fresh today in Ernesto\u2019s mind as the day it happened involved a dispute between Lencho and a few of his acquaintances. The setting was a small saloon across the street from Lencho and Jesusa\u2019s second caf\u00e9, La Alma Latina (The Latin Soul). Ernesto was in a small shoe repair shop located next to his parents\u2019 place, dickering with the owner over the cost of fixing the only pair of cowboy boots he ever owned. He was facing the back of the store and the owner was facing the street, where he could see into a small bar across the street on 25th and Market.\nWhile the young boy and the shoe repairman were talking, the shoe maker suddenly exclaimed, \u201cOh my God, they\u2019re fighting again. There\u2019s another fight going on across the street. These people are forever getting into fights.\u201d he pointed across the street.\n\u201cI turned to look,\u201d Ernesto recounted, \u201cand yelled, \u2018Oh my God, that\u2019s my mother and my father,\u2019 I saw her come out of the little bar and she was screaming, she was hysterical. I ran across the street and then I saw my father backing out of the little tavern like he was in some kind of shock. He was looking down at his stomach and trying to keep his intestines from falling out all over the place and he kept pushing them back in, trying to hold them with both arms. He staggered out and I saw three men come out of there, all of them holding knives in their hands.\u201d\nTwo of them ran west down the street and my father said to the man who had done the cutting, \u2018you\u2019re not going to get away with this. I\u2019ll kill you\u2019, \u201cWords to that effect. I looked at the man and told him, \u2018One of these days I\u2019m going to grow up and I\u2019ll kill you if my dad doesn\u2019t!\u2019\u201d\n\u201cMy mother told me to go get Paco, my oldest brother. I ran as fast as I could, but Paco wasn\u2019t at 309\u00bd . I went to the Union hall, several blocks away, and he wasn\u2019t there either so I found Jose, my brother, and told him to get over to there , that our father was badly cut. Jose never moved very fast. I kept running back to Dad and then back to Jose to try to get him to hurry.\u201d\n\u201cDad had followed the man who had cut him, followed him a block, holding his guts in. He wanted to finish the fight. My old man kept hollering, \u2018Come on back you son-of-a-bitch! Let\u2019s have it out!\u2019 He wanted to get his hands on the guy, in spite of the fact he was all cut up. He chased him to a long stairway in the building next to a furniture store on 24th and Market .But the old man couldn\u2019t get up the stairs.\u201d\n\u201c\u2018If you were a man, you\u2019d end this one way or another instead of running like a fucking coward. Either you kill me or I\u2019ll kill you!\u2019 he yelled, but the guy wouldn\u2019t come down.\u201d\n\u201cI watched him come out of the building and try to cross the street, but he never made it. Twenty-fifth Street was a very wide street and he got only halfway across. When he fell down his guts, his intestines, went all over the street and he just lay there. An ambulance got there before Jose did and the man put Dad on a stretcher, piled his guts on top of him, and drove him away.\u201d\n\u201cThe old man stayed in the hospital ten days or so, as I remember. Must have had more than a hundred and fifty stitches. Cut him from hip to hip, but I guess they must have missed the intestines. I didn\u2019t really know what the damage was. A few days after they took out the stitches my Dad got into trouble with the same bunch of guys again. At Ricardo\u2019s bar right next door to the first bar he\u2019d been in. I had come back to the restaurant my mother and dad operated. That\u2019s where we all ate. No cooking at home. My mother had father were across the street at Ricardo\u2019s having a beer.\u201d\n\u201cMother\u2019d been with him in the first fight, too. Didn\u2019t trust him none, y\u2019know, and never let him out of her sight. In fact, in a way it was my mother who had been responsible for the first fight.\u201d\n\u201cShe and my dad had been having a beer in that first bar\u2013I forgot its name\u2013and one of the men there used some bad language. My dad told the man to stop using that kinda language and the guy said that if he didn\u2019t like it, he oughta get his wife out of there, send her home. That\u2019s what started the fight, the first fight.\u201d\n\u201cMy Dad never really carried a knife or other weapons. No, his favorite thing was a beer bottle or wine bottle, whatever was handy. Preferably full. Gives it more weight, y\u2019know. He\u2019d hit the person on the head with the bottle and then have the jagged half of it left. Probably better than a knife. No, he didn\u2019t carry any weapons.\u201d\n\u201cI remember I was across the street from Ricardo\u2019s when the second fight began. Mother comes to mind. Yeah, she wore dresses and high heels about ninety percent of the time. And I heard her coming along clickety, clickety, clickety, y\u2019know. She hollered at me, \u2018Your father\u2019s getting in trouble again with the same man that cut him. Go get Paco. Go right now. Go get him. Tell him I said to hurry and get back fast. They\u2019re going to hurt him. There are several of them.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cI ran to 309\u00bd and found my brother John at the apartment. He put on a coat\u2013he was like Joe who never hurried\u2013and reached under the pillow on his bed and pulled out a .25 caliber automatic. It was in a little holster and he clipped it on his left side. I grabbed him by the hand, trying to get him to hurry and he just said, \u2018You go up ahead. Tell him I\u2019m coming. He was so much older than I was and I thought everyone was supposed to run like me.\u201d\n\u201cWhen we got there\u2013I\u2019d been running back and forth, back and forth between Paco and my father\u2013I saw the men. It was a little itty bitty bar, had a juke box, and a few booths across from a short bar. I went over to the juke box and pretended like I was looking at the names of the records when John came in. He walked over to the booths and could turn his back on them because they were empty and watched my father argue with the five men. John was just standing there facing everybody and my dad saw he had my brother\u2019s support. When he knew that, he growled, \u2018All right, you sons-of-bitches, you wanted to fight, let\u2019s fight!\u2019\u201d\n\u201cDad hauled off with a beer bottle to hit the big tall guy who had cut him, but the knife fighter ducked and my father hit the guy right behind him. Got him in the mouth. The guy who\u2019d been hit spit out a bunch of blood and teeth and stuff and the tall guy reached into his pocket for a knife. That\u2019s when John pulled back his coat and put his hand on the pistol. They saw him and the gun, I went to hollering, \u2018Shoot! Shoot! And when he wouldn\u2019t shoot, I asked him to give me the gun and let me shoot \u2018em\u2026\u2018Give me the gun\u2013give me the gun!\u2019\u201d\n\u201cThe five guys scattered, the bartender ducked behind the bar, they were running over each other to get out through the door. Four of them didn\u2019t stop running, but the guy who\u2019d been hit was standing there on the sidewalk spitting out teeth and blood and crying.\u201d\n\u201c\u2018I didn\u2019t have anything to do with your cutting\u2019 the guy cried.\u201d\n\u201c\u2018Bullshit\u2019, my father yelled, \u2018You\u2019re a friend of that son-of-a-bitch who cut me.\u2019\u201d\n\u201c\u2018You ought to pay for this. You ought to pay for this\u2019, the guy moaned, blood dripping from his mouth.\u201d\n\u201c\u2018I\u2019m not paying for shit,\u2019 my dad said, \u2018You bastards didn\u2019t pay when I went to the hospital.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cMy brother came out and got a hold of my father, who was still walking around with the broken beer bottle in his hand, and told him that they had better get the hell away from the there.\u201d\n\u201c\u2018Go where? I don\u2019t have to go anywhere\u2019. My dad wanted to return to his restaurant across the street where my mom was and continue drinking. \u2018I don\u2019t have to leave, and who are you to tell me I have to go home?\u2019\u201d\n\u201c\u2018I\u2019m taking you home,\u2019 my brother told him. He grabbed my drunken father\u2019s arm and pulled him down the street! As they argued, a black man came by and told my brother to leave the old man alone.\u201d\n\u201cMy brother let go of my dad, pulled out his pistol and pointed it at the black man like he was gonna shoot him. The black man shouted, \u2018Hey man be cool!\u2019 and started dancing quickly away.\u201d\n\u201cJohn told dad, \u2018Damn it, you\u2019re going to make me shoot one of these silly bastards. Come on now, you are going home.\u2019 My father finally threw away his broken bottle and didn\u2019t make any more trouble for John.\u201d\n\u201cThat was the end of that,\u201d Ernesto recalls, \u201cthat bunch never bothered my dad no more after that. Paco gave \u2018em something to think about, like getting some religion, maybe.\u201d\nKnives soon became a very important part of Ernesto\u2019s life. As his techniques in their use became more effective, he graduated from the boy scout knife to a longer one he called a Fish Knife. Then came the Hook Knife, distinguishable by the hawk\u2019s beak at the end of the blade. Next he moved to a straight razor, which were plentiful during the war with Germany, they were brought to American by service men as souvenirs. This was ideally suited for its slashing abilities and the ready availability of its blades. \u201cThey were good\u2013only if you knew how to handle them,\u201d Ernesto warned.\nGuess who outfitted Ernesto with his first switchblade? If you guessed his Aunt Simona, you guessed right. Aunt Simona carried her weapons in her brassiere and when she discovered that a straight edge razor fit her cleavage better than the bulkier switch blade knife she traded even with her nephew\u2013it was her switch blade for his razor. Later in his career Ernesto switched to daggers and ultimately to sharpened racing skate blades because in the prison setting he found that he preferred instruments with greater penetrating capabilities. In the slums of Galveston an artistic cutting job, using a short blade, was reward enough, because knife fights were engaged in to educate, not always with the intent to commit murder.\nIn addition to selling papers, Ernesto, as well as most of the young Mexican boys in town, shined shoes. Carrying around hand made wooden boxes in which the polish, brushes, and rags were kept, the boys were like a plague of locusts, each trying to carve out his own territory. Ernesto, always a specialist at learning things the hard way, picked up some very valuable advice from \u201cSkinny Albert\u201d Saucedo, or \u201cBeto\u201d, as he was also known, Beto being the Hispanic diminutive for Albert.\n\u201cI always thought Beto was a little tougher than I was,\u201d Ernesto admitted. \u201cHe had a punch like a mule, y\u2019know. He was a bony little character with short hair, quite a puncher, and we met on the corner of 24th and Market.\u201d Market was a main street and there I was when Beto walked up to me and said I couldn\u2019t shine shoes on that corner and I got to arguing with him and told him I was going to. He said, no I wasn\u2019t. He hauled off and gave me what we call a sucker punch, the first shot, y\u2019know, right in the face. We got in a hell of a fight. We spilled the shoe shine stuff and we fought and wrassled. Finally, I knew Skinny Albert had gotten the best of me because when that son-of-bitch hit, he hit hard. He had me down and hit me between the eyes a couple of times. Then, when he was still on top of me, he started laughing and I was trying to figure out what was so funny.\u201d\n\u201c\u2018The only reason I\u2019m doing this,\u2019 he said, \u2018is because I wanted to teach you a lesson. You\u2019re like a brother to me. And I don\u2019t want you to get yourself hurt. Never argue with anybody. When someone comes up to you and is trying to do you some harm, get the first punch in. And then you talk later.\u2019 Then he ran off laughing.\u201d\nWhen he was about thirteen years old the young Rodriguez was challenged to his first fight by a boy in his neighborhood, the challenge coming from a boy name Daniel Diaz, nicknamed \u201cTuffy\u201d, who traveled everywhere in the company of his two brothers. Tuffy, like Ernesto, worked out in the YMCA gym, but they had never fought with one another there and the challenge came as a surprise, one which no red blooded Mexican boy could refuse. Ernesto had loaned his bicycle to a friend, \u201cBananas\u201d, and when he brought the bicycle back, Bananas pointed out that Tuffy had slashed the tires and expected to meet Ernesto a few minutes later in a nearby alley. The gauntlet was down.\nBecause all the boys boxed at the \u201cY\u201d, the fight was fair, Tuffy against Ernesto while Tuffy\u2019s brothers looked on. No knives. Only fists. Connecting with two shots to the stomach followed by two blows to the head, Ernesto knocked out Tuffy, reportedly the toughest boy in the neighborhood. Then the next brother squared off against him, and met the same fate. The third soon followed suit and Ernesto had the field to himself. No one was going to slash his bicycle tires again. Unfortunately, Tuffy and his groggy brothers hadn\u2019t learned their lesson well, because as they withdrew they warned Ernesto not to go to the dance they knew he planned to attend that weekend.\n\u201cNo, I\u2019m going to be there,\u201d Ernesto said. \u201cI just decided I wasn\u2019t going to let Tuffy run me off and tell me I couldn\u2019t go to this dance. So I went home and talked to one of the men who were renting in our house. He was a big, dark skinned Mexican\u2013just out of the Army and he liked to gamble a lot\u2013and I told him these guys were going to jump me if I went to the dance. I asked him what I should do.\u201d\n\u201cHe said, \u2018Hey, don\u2019t worry about those guys.\u2019\u201d\n\u201c\u2018Yeah, but they\u2019re going to pull knives on me and everything else. I can\u2019t stay away, y\u2019know, I got to go. I can\u2019t be afraid of those guys.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cHe showed me how to handle a short broom stick, how to break wrists, even get to their necks. Up and down, this way and that way, he gave me some quick lesson on how I could mess up four or five guys in a hurry.\u201d\nUnlike most of the boys in the various neighborhoods, Ernesto didn\u2019t belong to a gang, as did Skinny Albert and some of his other friends. Ernesto worked as a loner, getting along with different boys in different gangs, if he happened to like them. When the Rodriguez and other families were forced to move from the 2710 Post Office Street address Ernesto didn\u2019t see as much of Skinny Albert as he had formerly.\nBeto\u2019s father had been electrocuted when he tried to save the life of another man he was working with who had come in contact with exposed electric wires in a water-filled basement. The mother had become an alcoholic and Beto, only slightly older than Ernesto, was trying to act like the man in the family, the breadwinner, and that responsibility kept him out of some of his usual mischief on the streets.\nWhen Ernesto went to the dance that weekend he took along his short stick and a hook knife in case Tuffy and his gang meant what they had said. Because the stick was too long to fit in his pocket he hid it in the shrubbery outside the dance hall. It it appeared as though someone was likely to jump him that night, he\u2019d quickly go outside and fetch it from the oleander bushes.\nMost, but not all, of the people in the large dance hall were young people from twelve to sixteen years old. The girls were dressed in long dresses, bobby sox outfits, or Mexican costumes, and many of the boys, including Ernesto, were dressed in the pachuco style of the time, or zoot suit, fashion which dictated pegged trousers, long coat, key chain, wide brimmed hat, and shaping one\u2019s long hair in the \u201cduck tail\u201d style. The kids who knew how to do it jitter bugged, but most of them preferred rhumbas, polkas, and ranch style country music.\nAs Ernesto approached the dance hall in Kempner Park he caught strong whiffs of marijuana in the warm air.\nTo be dressed like a pachuco was to advertise one\u2019s bravery, a bravery usually symbolized by a tattoo of three rays emanating from a small cross displayed on the forehead or the hand. The police enjoyed harassing them because they knew the pachucos were the tough ones, young people who dressed differently and flaunted authority. Sailors quickly picked up the antagonism felt by the police and in 1945 the Pachuco Riots in San Diego made the front pages across the country.\nThere were Hispanics in many of the large northern cities who aped the pachucos, but for the most part the pachuco phenomenon was confined to the southern border states.\nErnesto laughed when he remembered the dance hall fight and how it had started. \u201cI think I was set up. I had hidden the stick in the bushes and then walked around to the entrance. Tuffy and his gang were waiting for me on the steps. It was fight or run. Beto was part of Tuffy\u2019s gang and he probably knew what was going on but he kept his mouth shut.\u201d\n\u201cTuffy said, \u2018I told you not to come to the dance\u2019 and pulled his dagger with about a five inch blade. I had my knife in my pocket but I was afraid to pull it out, afraid that I\u2019d antagonize him and that they\u2019d all jump on me. So I told them they were all a bunch of cowards and that I would fight every one of them one at a time. I more or less guaranteed them that they weren\u2019t going to win. I even offered to take them on two at a time with or without a knife. They said, no, they wanted to jump on me in a group.\u201d\n\u201cLike a fucking wolf pack.\u201d Ernesto moaned.\nIt was Skinny Albert, Beto who saved the day. He had been standing to one side, observing the confrontation, and saw the predicament his pal was in.\n\u201cI heard Albert call my name, and when I looked at him, I was surprised!\u201d Ernesto said with a smile.\n\u201cBeto pitched me a switch blade\u2013I caught it in mid air\u2013and got back to back with me. The other guys got around us, sort of in a circle, and Beto told me, \u2018You and me will take \u2019em all on!\u2019\u201d\n\u201cTuffy started screaming that Beto was on his side and they didn\u2019t want no trouble with him. Beto was really a mean son-of-bitch, y\u2019know. When we got back to back they decided to leave us alone and Beto called them a bunch of cowards, and warned them not to bother me again.\u201d\nThat Ernesto from age ten onwards was carrying a knife was really no surprise. A properly outfitted young Mexican in the tough district of Galveston was seldom without one. The kids copied the adults, few of whom ventured forth on the streets or into the cantinas without a knife on their person. Macho and knives were like ham and eggs, they complimented one another. In fact, knives were such a persuasive instrument for settling grievances and disputes that many Mexican males took the precaution of having the Virgen de Guadalupe tattooed on their backs, the feeling being widespread that the Virgin\u2019s image would ward off knife thrusts from that direction.\n\u00ab Chapter One\nChapter Three \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "MainAll NewsInside IsraelDid Israel Ask Britain to Vote Against it?\nDid Israel Ask Britain to Vote Against it?\nBritish Jewish news website says PM Netanyahu asked Britain to vote in favor of UN endorsing anti-Israel report on Gaza.\nBinyamin Netanyahu and UK counterpart David C\nIn what seems quite odd, the UK-based Jewish Chronicle reported on Monday that Britain last week voted in favor of a UN resolution to back the Human Rights Council\u2019s report that accused Israel of war crimes in Gaza \u2013 at the request of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.\nAccording to the report, Netanyahu\u2019s office called British Prime Minister David Cameron on Friday morning, shortly before the vote, asking him to change his plan to support Israel\u2019s public stance on the resolution because it represented a considerably watered-down version of an earlier one.\nCameron\u2019s initial reaction was that it would be \u201cpure madness\u201d, particularly as he had made several statements voicing support for Israel recently, according to the Jewish Chronicle.\nBut the Israelis feared that, had the watered down resolution been overturned, the original resolution on the report by the Gaza Conflict Commission of Inquiry would have been revived, the report said.\nThe resolution was supported by 41 of the 47 members of the UN Human Rights Council, including Germany, France and the Netherlands. Only the United States voted against it.\nHighly placed sources told the Jewish news website that the Israelis regarded Friday\u2019s UNHRC vote as being the lesser of two evils. Although accusing Israel of war crimes, it also held Hamas responsible, and marked a significant watering down of the original resolution put before the council.\n\u201cWe thought this was extraordinary, to put it mildly, but decided to do as Israel asked,\u201d one source said.\nThe background to the UNHRC vote, according to the Jewish Chronicle, stems from a World Health Organization (WHO) vote on May 20, when the UK voted against Israel in support of a motion accusing Israel of violating the health rights of Syrians in the Golan.\nBy 104 votes to 4, Israel was singled out at the WHO\u2019s annual assembly as the only nation on earth to be condemned for violating health rights.\nWhen the vote was reported, 10 Downing Street \u201cwent ballistic. They had no idea the vote was happening, and this was just the FCO doing its usual thing\u201d, a source told the website.\nAnother source added, \u201cYou have to remember that these WHO diplomats are the lowest calibre we have.\u201dThe source confirmed that Number Ten was unaware of either the existence of the WHO vote or how the FCO was planning to cast its vote. The first it knew of it was when the result was reported.\u201d\nThe report further noted that by last Friday morning the FCO was still pressing for an abstention rather than Number Ten\u2019s wish for a vote against the resolution - supporting Israel\u2019s public opposition to the resolution - but neither the FCO nor Number Ten was considering a Yes vote.\nThe Jewish Chronicle said it discovered that on Friday morning Netanyahu\u2019s office then began a series of phone calls to some of Israel\u2019s key allies, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel, making the extraordinary request that they vote against Israel and against Israel\u2019s public opposition to the resolution.\nAccording to a Whitehall source, Prime Minister Cameron thought the request was \u201cpure madness\u201d. But given it was a direct request from Netanyahu, and he was assured that other Israel allies would be voting the same way, he agreed.\nOver the past three days, Cameron has been widely accused of duplicity and hypocrisy. \u201cBoth the Israelis and the Brits will deny this\u201d, the source told the Jewish Chronicle, adding, \u201cIt sounds bonkers. But it\u2019s true\u201d.\nIsraeli officials responded to the report with the following statement: \u201cIsrael informed the members of the UN Human Rights Council that it strongly opposes the resolution adopted on Gaza, as was widely reported in its official statements. At the same time, Israel asked members of the council to ensure that the proposed draft would not be made even worse\u201d.\nTags:war crimes, UNHRC, Britain-Israel, Gaza Region, Op. Protective Edge",

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Shin Bet Director Nadav Argaman also spoke at the event.\n\"I look at you, the men and women of the Shin Bet for generations, the people who have worked and continue to work with determination and tirelessness for the State of Israel and the people of Israel, and above all, I feel tremendous pride at this moment. The people of Israel owe you a great deal,\u201d Rivlin said at the start of his remarks.\nThe President continued, \"The Israel Security Agency is the body that has the most complex and sensitive task. You, the service personnel, are required to protect the state not only from external enemies but also from domestic dangers. You are responsible for the protection of the lives of Israeli citizens, and no less important, as determined by the Service Law, the protection of the democratic system and its institutions. This is a difficult task, sometimes ungrateful, with a lot of criticism. Sometimes there are mistakes, and none of you operates in a vacuum. You are operating in the most complex reality imaginable. We must all remember: The Israel Security Agency is one of the foundations of our existence. Its members work on behalf of all of Israel, on both right and left. Harming the Israel Security Agency and its people is the same as harming Israel's security.\"\n\"The upcoming period poses difficult security challenges in a number of arenas simultaneously,\" the President added. \"You, the Shin Bet, play a significant role in our ability to deal with these challenges successfully, with an emphasis on the Palestinian arena. We trust you.\"\nPrime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said to the members of the Shin Bet who were in attendance, \"You are far from the limelight, but you are close to the heart of the people. The citizens of Israel greatly appreciate your important activity, which enables us all to maintain our daily routine, and not only that \u2013 to be safe from death many times.\u201d\n\"You save people, and if the curtain were raised, the citizens of Israel would undoubtedly be speechless over the creativity, daring and all the achievements that have been credited to you throughout the years of the state's existence.\"\nNetanyahu added that the Shin Bet has always been a symbol of technological progress. \"The entire world comes to learn from you and you are actually helping the foreign relations of the State of Israel. Intelligence leaders from the world come and see a skilled and creative organization.\u201d\n\"You save a lot of lives. People are unaware of the fact that the Shin Bet thwarts about 400 attacks a year, which means one attack being thwarted per day on average. We know what that means. The people of Israel trust you, because there is someone to rely on. Thank you very much, on behalf of all the citizens of Israel,\" concluded the Prime Minister.\nTags:Shin Bet, Netanyahu, Reuven Rivlin",

He settled in London in 1559, and in 1571 was residing in the parish of St. Peter le Poer. Previous to this he had become a member of the College of Physicians, and was selected in the lastmentioned year to read the anatomy lecture at the college\u2014an honor which he declined. Before 1584 he had become body-physician to the Earl of Leicester; and he was accused of assisting that nobleman in removing some of his enemies by poison. Two years later he became chief physician to Queen Elizabeth, who in 1589 granted him the monopoly of importing aniseed and sumac into England.\nAt court Lopez became acquainted with the Earl of Essex, and was thus brought into relations with Don Antonio, the pretender to the crown of Portugal, and with Antonio Perez, the discharged secretary of Philip II. He assisted them in inducing the queen to permit the attempted invasion of Portugal in 1589, and suffered some loss of influence through its failure. An indiscreet revelation of some of Essex's ailments set that nobleman against him; and about 1590 Lopez began intriguing against Antonio with the court of Spain, at first with the connivance of Walsingham, who hoped through Manuel de Andrada, one of Lopez's adherents, to obtain useful information of Spanish projects. Andrada brought back a diamondand ruby ring worth \u00a3100 as an earnest of the reward Lopez would get if he removed Don Antonio. Lopez offered the ring to the queen, who refused it, presumptive evidence, according to Major Hume, that she knew it came from Philip II. Later on, the ring was used as evidence of Lopez's designs against the queen.\nIn Oct., 1593, one Esteban de Gama was seized in Lopez's house on a charge of conspiring against Don Antonio; and shortly afterward a person named Gomez d'Avila was likewise seized on landing at Dover. He proved to have mysterious correspondence relating to \"the price of pearls\" and to musk and amber, and to be in some relation with Lopez. A third conspirator, Ticino, was induced to come over from Brussels with an invalid safe-conduct. By confronting the prisoners some evidence was elicited leading to the conclusion that the \"price of pearls\" referred to a plot against the queen, in which Lopez was implicated. He was seized and examined by the Earl of Essex, who failed, however, to find any definite cause for suspicion. Later, confessions of the minor conspirators led to Lopez being put on the rack, where he confessed to having entertained suggestions as to poisoning the queen for the sum of 50,000 ducats, but, as he alleged, merely with the design of cozening the King of Spain and of getting as much money out of him as possible. This excuse was not accepted; and, after lingering some time in the Tower, he, with D'Avila and Ticino, was hanged, drawn, and quartered as a traitor, declaring with his last breath amid the derision of the spectators that he loved the queen as well as he loved Jesus Christ.\nHis trial created a great sensation at the time. References are made to it in Marlowe's \"Faustus,\" Dekker's \"Whore of Babylon,\" and Middleton's \"Game at Chess\"; while it has been suggested by Sidney Lee that he was the original Shylock in \"The Merchant of Venice,\" a version of which appears to have been put on the stage about two months after Lopez's execution. The fact that Shakespeare was on the side of the Earl of Essex, and that Antonio is adopted as the name of the hero, lends some plausibility to this suggestion. See Shylock.\nHistorians are divided as to the exact amount of criminality involved in Lopez's connection with Spanish plots. Dimock (\"English Historical Review,\" 1894, pp. 440-472) denies his innocence on the ground that he kept the negotiations secret. Major Hume (\"Treason and Plot,\" pp. 115-152, New York, 1901) considers his guilt unproved, as he had been permitted to make similar false suggestions with the connivance of Walsingham in 1590.\nS.

        "title": "JP's Music Blog: CD Review: A Lull Enjoys Debut With \"Confetti\"",
        "raw_content": "From Chicago comes A Lull with their debut album \"Confetti\". The album was released back in April through Mush Records. The band strives on layering sounds and vocals to create a musical masterpiece. Their overall sound is hard to describe, but it will definitely catch your attention.\nA Lull uses a repetitiveness of vocal sounds to create the background which then gets taken over by the bashing of drums in the album's lead track \"Weapons of War\". The songs become a sort of game between the band and the listener to try and figure out what is being used to create the music in songs like \"Mammals\" and \"Water & Beasts\". A Lull try to simplify their sound in the more gentle sounding \"Some Love\" and \"Sidemen\". They try to reach a more mainstream sound on \"Dark Stuff\", while keeping their originality intact. \"Phem\" sounds like a lost Peter Gabriel song that was transported into the future. Their sound is definitely one to behold and explore.\nA Lull just finished up a tour with Cold War Kids and performed at this year's SXSW festival. They will be performing at the NXNE festival in June before heading back out on the road. Check out the band's website (alull.com) to get a taste of this music for yourself.",

But many do not, a new study suggests, finding in coercion a freedom from blame.\nIn their experiments, Patrick Haggard, a cognitive neuroscientist at University College London, and his colleagues measured how the participants\u2019 \u201csense of agency\u201d changed when they did something negative to another person.\nThe negative outcome was a financial penalty or an electric shock. In some cases, the subject delivered the shock or penalty by choice; in others, he or she was told whether to take the action.\nDr. Haggard and his colleagues also asked participants to estimate the time between taking action \u2014 in this case, pressing a computer key \u2014 and the resulting financial loss or electric shock to another person.\nAccording to Dr. Haggard, previous research has shown that the longer the perceived time lapse, the less responsibility a subject feels for a negative outcome. In the new study, there was a small but significant increase in the perceived time lapse when the participants were acting under orders.\nThe study, which appears in Current Biology, suggests that perhaps laws should penalize those who give orders to a greater degree than those who follow them. \u201cSociety needs to manage quite carefully how responsibility is allocated,\u201d Dr. Haggard said.[/quote}\nI wonder how much this effect influences people who support authoritarian government; \"if the government is taking responsibility for doing bad things, it's not my fault when I'm the one who has to do the bad things.\"",

        "raw_content": "Next of Kin Mrs. Annie Foster (mother), Kenora, Ontario\nBuried At Brookside Cemetery, Winnipeg\nFoster, Percy Samuel\nCorporal Percy Samuel Foster enlisted in November 1915 and served with the 16th battalion in France, Belgium and Germany. He returned to Canada in May 1919.\nPercy was the son of Edward John Foster and Annie Hayward of Kenora, Ontario. Edward and Annie were both born in Ontario and they were married in Simcoe County in 1883. Edward worked as a sawyer and millwright and Annie was a tailoress. In the early 1890s they moved from Simcoe County to Rat Portage (now called Kenora), in northwestern Ontario, where Edward continued working in the lumber industry. He and his wife had ten children, nine sons and one daughter. Percy was born in Rat Portage on 28 March 1896 and his older brother Harry was born in July 1894.\nThe war entered its second year in August 1915 and late that fall a new unit, the 94th Battalion, was organized in northwestern Ontario. Percy enlisted in the 94th on 19 November 1915 and his brother Harry Foster signed up three months later. In May 1916 the Kenora recruits were sent to Port Arthur to train with the rest of the unit. They headed to the east coast a short time later, embarking from Halifax on 28 June on the SS Olympic and landing at Liverpool on 5 July. Percy and Harry were both transferred to the 17th Reserve Battalion. Two months later Percy was attached to the 16th Battalion (Canadian Scottish) and sent to France. After recovering from a fractured ankle Harry also joined the 16th Battalion and the two brothers went through some of the war together.\nWhen Percy joined his new unit in October 1916 they were at the Somme, where they had suffered heavy casualties. On 11 October the troops left Albert and began to move north to a quieter sector between Lens and Arras, opposite Vimy. In early November Percy developed an infection in his feet and he spent a few days at No. 2 Canadian Field Ambulance. After some time at a rest station he rejoined his unit towards the end of the month. The Canadians spent the winter in the Arras-Lens sector and in April 1917 they captured Vimy Ridge. The 16th Battalion took part in the Vimy operation and fought again in late April at Arleux. On 15 August Percy was promoted to Lance Corporal. The Battle of Hill 70 started that same day and the 16th Battalion took part in the initial assault.\nPercy developed an infection again in October, this time in his legs. He was sent to St. John\u2019s Ambulance Brigade Hospital in Etaples and evacuated to England a few days later. He spent about four weeks at Fort Pitt Military Hospital in Chatham then a week at the Canadian Convalescent Centre in Epsom. Once he had recovered he was transferred to the 11th Reserve Battalion and he served in England until October 1918. When he rejoined the 16th Battalion, about two weeks before the Armistice, they were near the Belgian border and they continued to advance into Belgium.\nHarry had been promoted to Corporal in early October and Percy became a Corporal on 21 November. They were both with the 16th Battalion for the March to the Rhine. Along with other Canadian units the 16th crossed into Germany on 6 December and stayed there with the occupying forces until 6 January 1919. After a few more months in Belgium the battalion left for Le Havre on 22 March and embarked for England on 26 March on the King Edward. Percy and Harry returned to Canada together, sailing from Liverpool on the SS Baltic on 29 April and arriving in Halifax on 5 May. They were discharged on 11 May in Port Arthur.\nPercy was married in Winnipeg on 17 October 1919. His wife Elizabeth (Bessie) Billedeau was the daughter of Hormidas Billedeau and Sarah Pelletier of Keewatin. She came from a large family and three of her brothers had served in the war: Albert, Hormidas Jr. and Jerome. When the 1921 census was taken Percy and Bessie were living in Minaki and he was working in a saw mill. A short time later they moved to Winnipeg and settled on Langside Street. They had three children: Stanley Percy, Clayton Vernon and Irene May. Stanley and Clayton both served in the Second World War. Clayton joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and he survived the war. Stanley served with the Winnipeg Grenadiers in the West Indies and in Hong Kong. He died on 28 October 1942, while he was a prisoner of war, and he\u2019s buried in Sai Wan War Cemetery in Hong Kong.\nPercy worked at a variety of jobs during his 45 years in Winnipeg. He was a shipper, a sampler for the Board of Grain, a janitor for the government and a stationary fireman at Osborne Street Barracks and the Minto Armoury. He was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 1. He retired around 1961 and passed away in Deer Lodge Veterans Hospital on 12 March 1967, at age 71. His funeral was held four days later and he\u2019s buried in the military Field of Honour at Brookside Cemetery. Bessie later married Albert George Lindstrom and she died in Penticton, British Columbia in October 1981.\nPhotos courtesy of Foster public family tree on ancestry.com.",

        "title": "Blueberry - Are You Ready for a Change?",
        "raw_content": "Aging: Aside from genetic factors, for which there is no apparent solution, and we consider the effect of free radicals on aging as the main cause of various symptoms, then blueberries bring you the brightest ray of hope for staying young. These \u201csuperfood\u201d berries are packed with antioxidants and rank number 1 in the world of antioxidants. This is mainly due to presence of Anthocyanin, a pigment responsible for the blue color of the blue berries. The abundance of vitamin-C is also a big factor for this impressive claim as well. You can prevent signs of aging like wrinkles, age spots, cataracts, osteoporosis, hair loss, dementia, and Alzheimer\u2019s disease by eating blueberries and getting the most out of the antioxidant potential!\nUrinary Tract Infection: The formation of certain bacterial colonies like b-coli along the lining of the inner walls of urinary tract is responsible for this infection. It results in inflammation, a burning sensation during the passage of urine and other complications. For this condition, blueberries can be surprisingly beneficial. It has a compound formed of large, polymer-like molecules which inhibit the growth of such bacteria. It also has certain antibiotic properties which add to this effect. These heavy molecules scrub these bacteria off the walls along the tract, thereby preventing the infection. So far, this compound has only been found in cranberries and blueberries.\nEye Care & Macular Degeneration: Blueberries are one of the best alternatives for spectacles, contact-lenses, eye-drops, medications and eye surgeries. They can prevent or delay all age-related ocular problems like macular degeneration, cataracts, myopia and hypermetropia, dryness, and infections, particularly those pertaining to the retina, due to their antioxidant properties. Macular degeneration is a serious problem where the retina of the eye degenerates gradually, ultimately leading to complete or partial blindness. I am certainly not telling you to put blueberries in your eyes, but you can simply eat them for healthier vision. Blueberries contain special groups of antioxidants called carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin etc.), flavonoids (like rutin, resveritrol, quercetin etc.), and other antioxidant compounds like vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A, selenium, zinc and phosphorus, which are all very beneficial and essential for ocular health.\nBrain Function, Memory & Alzheimer\u2019s Disease: Again, the antioxidant properties of blueberries come into play. The anthocyanin, the selenium, the vitamins A, B-complex, C and E, zinc, sodium, potassium, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese and all the others can prevent and heal neurotic disorders by preventing the degeneration and death of neurons. These essential nutrients also protect brain cells and help to restore the health of the central nervous system. It is hard to believe that these berries can also cure serious problems like Alzheimer\u2019s disease to a great extent. They even heal damaged brain cells and neuron tissues to keep your memory sharp for a very long time.\nConstipation & Digestion: While the roughage (fiber) in a couple handfuls of blueberries prevents constipation, the vitamins, sodium, copper, fructose and acids improve digestion by stimulating the correct gastric and digestive juices to move food smoothly and safely through your gastrointestinal system.\nCancer: Blue Berries can prove to be extremely valuable for cancer patients, for they contain certain compounds like Pterostilbene (an excellent remedy for colon and liver cancer) and Ellagic Acid which, in harmony with Anthocyanin and other antioxidants like vitamin-C and copper, can do miracles to both prevent and cure cancer.\nHeart Disease: The high fiber content, those brilliant antioxidants, and their ability to dissolve the \u2018bad cholesterol\u2019 makes blueberries an ideal dietary supplement to cure many heart diseases, while also strengthening the cardiac muscles.\nImmunity: Blueberries, being very rich in antioxidants like Anthocyanin, vitamin C, B complex, vitamin E, vitamin A, copper (a very effective immune builder and anti-bacterial substance), selenium, zinc, and iron (promotes immunity by raising hemoglobin and oxygen concentration in blood), it can seriously boost your immune system and prevent infections.\nOther Benefits & Facts: Blueberries keep you feeling fresh, active, fit, sharp, close to nature and in a good mood, as they are very good antidepressants. You also won\u2019t need to spend a lot of money on medicine, because blueberries are effective against so many different conditions. There are also no negative side effects associated with this \u201csuperfood\u201d. A final interesting thing to know about blueberries is that the deeper the color of the blueberries, the richer they are in antioxidants and other medicinal nutrients.",

Chemotherapy can often rob a patient of their identity. But, Cathy Miskell is getting back what she lost, one strand at a time.\nWhen we caught up with Miskell she was sporting what many of us often do when heading into the salon, a baseball cap! But, a messy head of hair underneath is not why Miskell has an appointment with stylist Jeana Weatherby. Miskell has no hair! \"I've never been a real vain person, or I didn't think I was,\" said Miskell.\nMiskell has breast cancer. Every three weeks, she's injected with chemicals that have made her hair fall out. \"It just falls out, comes out in clumps. You begin to look like you're diseased in some way,\" explained Miskell.\nIt's a look that she was worried her husband would not go for. \"My husband travels. My concern was that he would leave town to work, and he would come home, and I wouldn't have any hair. And, that's exactly what happened,\" said Miskell.\nMiskell says she went in for a buzz cut, and came out with a new hair.\nAt the Mastectomy Boutique in Cape Girardeau, stylist work with breast cancer patients find a look. \"I listen to what their needs are, what they're looking for, as far as color, if they want the same style,\" said hair stylist Jeanne Weatherby.\nMiskell's always had short hair. \"I was concerned about finding a wig I would feel good in,\" said Miskell.\nMiskell eased into the transition, buying the wig, and getting tailored it to match her identity before losing her hair. \"It boosts their self esteem to get something that matches them so they don't feel different,\" said Weatherby.\nAs for Miskell's husband, she said, \"I don't think he's pretending that it doesn't matter to him. He says it'll grow back, and he's right, it will.\"\nMany health insurance plans will cover all or part of the cost of a wig\nMiskell admits she did not get a mammogram until she was forced to do so at age 46!

        "raw_content": "This animal is a species of deer whose species is very small and this animal can be found in the Sahaara desert. They look like many other species of deer, but after further research the type of deer is actually very different. This species also has a square tooth like a cow. And the horns in this species are very long and curved.\nMonito Del Monte is a Spanish term for \u201clittle monkey\u201d. But this name is very deceptive. Monito Del Monte is actually a live marsupial in Chile and Argentina. This mammal species is also considered full more than 11 million years ago. But, modern explorers find this creature in the modern new era. This small marsupial also has a rat body with large brown fur, long pointed ears and a long tail. The thing that distinguishes this animal is its big eyes and it lives on the trees in the forest. Its long tail can help it to swing from one tree to another.\nThe frayed shark is an oddity in the animal world. Because until the 19th century the researchers thought this animal was dead with the dinosaurs. However, this proves to be untrue, as some fishermen have captured this frayed shark and have also found the carcass of this creature.\nThe frayed shark looks similar to the eel, it has a long body. The frayed shark also has a triangular shape with a long gray body. This shark also has no fin on the back, and is very different from most of the other shark species.\nOlm is an amphibian that comes from a European country, and this animal can be found in Italy. This creature also has a long white body, with four small legs. At a glance, this animal is very similar to a small snake.\nThis lizard spent his life in underground caves. This creature has eyes that can not grow and really blind. Although this animal can not see it does not mean that it is powerless, but instead it can compensate for its deficiencies with great hearing and the sense of smell.\nKakapao\nKakapo is the only parrot that cannot fly in this world. While their cousins can travel by air, this species chooses to walk or ride from one place to another.\nThis bird can be found in the country of New Zealand and this species of bird is often also referred to as the Parrots Haunted Bird. This creature also gets julun from the shape of the feather disc around the eyeball. This bird is also designated as the largest parrot weighing up to 8 Kg.",

        "raw_content": "God Bless West\nMatthew St. John\nPeople take part in a candlelight vigil April 18 at the Church of the Assumption in West, Texas, to remember those who lost their lives or were injured in a massive explosion at the area\u2019s fertilizer plant the previous day.(CNS photo/Adrees Latif, Reuters)\nOn the night of Wednesday, April 17, Grand Knight Ryan Adams of West (Texas) Council 2305 had just arrived at his hotel room in nearby Austin when he received a text message from a relative. It read simply: \u201cThe fertilizer plant just blew up.\u201d\nAdams\u2019 mind began racing. The small plant was at the heart of his beloved hometown, where hours before he had left his wife and two young children behind for a business trip. Knowing that the plant was located near a sizeable apartment complex and several local businesses, he knew the damage would be devastating.\nDays later, Adams and his brother Knights would assume a leading role in the recovery efforts in West. In addition to raising money to support those who had lost their homes, the Knights turned their hall into a distribution center and meeting place. They hosted dozens of disaster response agencies, served meals and stood together as a pillar of strength for the community.\nBut when he initially heard about the disaster, Adams didn\u2019t know what to think. He hurriedly packed up his bags and headed back to West, not sure what he would find when he got there.\nLocated about 20 miles north of Waco, Texas, the town of West is home to 2,800 people, many of Czech descent. The prominent features of this quintessential Texas town include the \u201cCzech Stop\u201d and the \u201cKC Hall,\u201d a campus of two buildings that houses the town\u2019s 500-member strong Knights of Columbus council.\nWest is a Catholic town with a bustling parish community at St. Mary of the Assumption Church. The two cultures \u0097 Catholic and Czech \u0097 are intertwined and often meet, with Czech dances and heritage functions at the Knights\u2019 hall.\nBut all that came to a screeching halt April 17 when a small fire at the West Fertilizer Company unleashed a horrifying explosion that killed at least 15 people. Among them were two members of the Knights of Columbus:\u2008Cody Dragoo, the manager of the plant and a member since 2008, and Joey Pustejovsky, the city secretary and a second-generation Knight since 2001. Both men were also volunteer firefighters.\nThe blast injured more than 160 others and destroyed or damaged more than 150 buildings. Authorities say the explosion measured a 2.1 on the Richter scale and was heard in towns as far as 45 miles away. Even the K of C hall, located a mile away from the blast site, sustained some damage.\nWhen Adams returned from Austin, he found a community in shock.\n\u201cWe have some friends [whose homes were evacuated that night],\u201d Adams said, \u201cso they came over and stayed with us. We stayed up until about 2:30 in the morning just watching the news coverage.\u201d\nIt was hard to swallow. But in those first hours, when Adams and his wife welcomed another family into their home, West\u2019s unbreakable sense of community began to shine through.\nWithin hours of the tragedy, the Supreme Council sent $10,000 in emergency relief funds to Council 2305. The Texas State Council also committed $10,000 for future use.\nMeanwhile, Knights in West got straight to work. In less than 48 hours, they opened their hall to the people of West and hosted a hamburger supper, offering neighbors and friends a chance to grieve and be together.\nOn Saturday morning, a busload of Knights from nearby Baylor University, North Texas University and the University of Dallas arrived in West to help sort and organize the donations that were pouring in to a collection point at the town fairgrounds. Meanwhile, the people of West turned to God in prayer, and many proudly wore t-shirts that had \u201cGod Bless West\u201d emblazoned across the front.\nTown residents bow their heads in prayer during an April 21 outdoor prayer service four days after the deadly explosion.(CNS photo/Tim Sharp, Reuters)\nThat Sunday, as nearly 1,000 persons filled the Church of the Assumption for a Mass celebrated by Bishop Joe S. V\u00e1squez of Austin, more than 100 Knights from across the state served in a Fourth Degree honor guard.\n\u201cThere are many people who are hurting,\u201d Bishop V\u00e1squez said in his homily. \u201cThere are many people who are suffering. As a consequence, you and I have gathered to pray. We pray because we are confident, because we trust God, because we believe his word is true.\u201d\nNoting that their gathering was taking place on Good Shepherd Sunday, Bishop V\u00e1squez said, \u201cLet the Lord carry you on his shoulders. Let the Lord sustain you in this tragic and terrible time.\u201d\nAfter Mass ended, more than 500 people traveled to the K of C hall for a community luncheon. During the event, Grand Knight Adams and Treasurer Mike Lednicky announced to those in attendance that the Knights would be distributing emergency funds to those who needed it.\nThe council distributed several thousand dollars that day, since many people had lost their homes and everything they owned.\n\u201cThe only clothes they had were clothes on their back,\u201d Adams said.\nRemembering those who had lost their lives, the community found the motivation to carry on and rebuild.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve got to rebuild for the guys we\u2019ve lost,\u201d Lednicky said. \u201cBecause that\u2019s what they would have done. Every single one of them would have been here today helping people.\u201d\nDue to its central location, the Knights of Columbus hall became vital to relief efforts. The Red Cross, several major insurance companies, and a number of other agencies, organizations and ministries joined together at the council hall to provide a wide variety of services to those in need, including food and other supplies, spiritual guidance, mental health assistance, insurance aid, and legal consultation. The hall also served as a meeting place after the funerals of the fallen, with the council donating both the space and the food for luncheons after services.\nAs the dust settled in West and the initial recovery began, the scope of the damage became clear. Once-green fields were littered with black ash and debris; houses were gutted down to the studs by the force of the blast; and cars and trucks lay in mangled ruins.\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to need help rebuilding,\u201d Lednicky said. \u201cThe coming weeks and months are going to be a big construction project.\u201d\nThe Knights are committed to helping. Knights everywhere have joined the effort and, through a website set up by the Supreme Council, have raised a total of more than $175,000 in donations. Council 2305 has been working in conjunction with the Supreme Council and local authorities to determine how best to distribute the relief funds. Whether it\u2019s donations to schools, assistance rebuilding, emergency expenses or anything in between, the Knights are working alongside other charitable organizations to maximize the effect of the charitable giving.\n\u201cThe last few days, I\u2019ve seen some of the most amazing things in my life from this tragedy,\u201d said Adams, who added that even the families of victims were helping in any way they could. He noted that, despite dozens of evacuated homes, shelters were mostly empty because people were staying with family and friends.\n\u201cWe take care of each other around here,\u201d Adams continued. \u201cAnd that\u2019s what this community is about.\u201d\nLike any other town, West had its minor divisions and petty differences. But in the wake of this terrible tragedy, as the final chapter waits to be written, a spirit of solidarity remains.\n\u201cToday, we\u2019re West,\u201d Adams said. \u201cWe\u2019re all one. This is something that won\u2019t be forgotten any time soon. The spirit in this town is strong, and we\u2019re going to come back as strong as we can be, as one community.\u201d\nMATTHEW ST. JOHN is communications project coordinator with the Knights of Columbus Supreme Council and past grand knight of Saint Anselm College Council 4875 in Manchester, N.H.",

        "title": "Green Homes Bring Energy Savings - Korea IT Times",
        "raw_content": "An increasing number of environmentally-friendly homes are being constructed to conserve energy by using solar and geothermal technology.\nAn apartment building in Seongnae-dong, Seoul has become the first solar-powered apartment complex in the country. The transition to solar power was made in part in response to the rise of oil prices, which was impacting apartment maintenance fees. As a result of using solar power, both energy use and maintenance fees have been kept low, passing on savings to residents.\nThis apartment has become a model and a benchmark for other construction companies seeking new ways to make energy-efficient residences. In order to develop a \"zero energy\" residence, GS Construction is developing and applying new technologies like its \"Solar Shading System,\" which uses special shading windows and doors to save energy, along with radiant heat and cooling systems and solar power, to create more environmentally-friendly apartments.\nThe Korean government supports construction companies in building energy-saving apartments which has helped increase the number of solar and wind-powered houses.\nGrowth in the renewable energy field has also increased interest in the general population and resulted in a move toward more eco-friendly sustainable growth. Many people have expressed a strong interest in energy -saving apartments.\nAround the country, many other apartment systems are also being built or remodeled with energy-efficiency in mind. PRUGIO apartments in Jamsil has installed solar panels and heat recovery ventilators, resulting in energy savings of up to 40 percent. The Hillstate apartment complex in Banpo also uses solar and wind energy for electricity.\nSK Sky View apartments in Suwon were designed with energy-efficiency in mind, incorporating 22 different energy-saving technologies, resulting in 36 percent lower energy consumption than standard apartments.\nThe Korean government is promoting the construction of green homes across Korea, and the Presidential Committee on Green Growth has announced that all new houses built must be to zero carbon emission standards by 2025.\nThe government has also taking action to convert an existing 1 million homes to green homes by 2018 with technology and methods. In addition, domestic construction companies have begun presenting \"zero-energy\" model houses and developing new technologies and building methods to make those houses realistic models for future construction.",

        "title": "Incheon Selected as Preliminary Bidder for Robot City - Korea IT Times",
        "raw_content": "Q: Would you comment on merits of Incheon City as the Robot Land What are differences between Incheon and other cities\nA: First, the No. 1 condition to become Robot Land should be a theme park with ability to stand on its own. Namely, Incheon is equipped with an optimum condition to build a global-level theme park in terms of location. It is possible for Incheon to develop a top-class tourist product in Asia that can attract more than 6.05 million foreign visitors annually.\nAt present, almost all globally succeeded theme parks are located near international airport within one- hour driving distance. Incheon City is located near the Incheon International Airport, the world's No. 5 airport, boasting of its top-class key point of Northeast Asia. Within 3.5 hours of flight time, people can reach 51 cities in the world with over 1 million population from Incheon.\nIt is also located within 30km from Seoul, the capital of Korea with residents of more than 23 million. At the same time, Inchon boasts of its various wide-range transportation networks linking Seoul- Incheon Expressway and the International Airport Expressway.\nSecondly, Incheon plans to build the 111-meter high Robot Taekwon V Tower as a symbol representing theme park. Like Cinderella Castle, a symbol of Disney Land, Incheon will construct a symbol tower, which will become a landmark of Robot Land, in order to introduce Korea's new robot culture.\nThe Robot Taekwon V Tower will be consisted of a 105-meter high universe observatory, a 95-meter high sky observatory, a universe pilot seat, an exhibition hall, a theme restaurant decorated with Robot Taekwon V characters and robot posters, and an observatory elevator. Thirdly, our city is located in Incheon Free Economic Zone (IFEZ) that boasts of such merits as advanced infrastructure, systematic networks and attractiveness to induce foreign capital.\nIFEZ consists of Songdo, Yeongjong and Cheongna districts and the Robot Land is scheduled to be located in Cheongna district. IFEZ grants foreigninvested companies such tax benefits as income tax, corporate tax and tariffs, making it easy to attract foreign investment. Robot Land should be a kind of tourism product and at the same time, be linked with the robot industry to create demands for robots. The IFEZ plans to house hotels, golf courses, tourism estates and other tourism & leisure facilities, as well as R&D, industrial and business estates. Accordingly, it can generate synergy effects by linking Robot Land and neighboring infrastructure.\nFourth, it is possible for Incheon to play a role of detonator to develop the city into an innovative cluster of the high-tech industry by linking neighboring industrial estates and reforming industrial structure.\nThrough R&D centers to be set up in Robot Land, Seoul National University (BT), KAIST (IT) research estate and Incheon High-tech Park (IHP), it is possible to develop robot-related original technology.\nIt can utilize seven industrial estates in Incheon and other industrial estates in metropolitan area, including Ansan and Bucheon, as robot production base. As it is located in the metropolitan region, the nation's biggest consumer market, and possesses airport and harbor for advancement into overseas markets, it is the best place to play a role of innovative cluster for research & development, production and sales of robots.\nFifth, Incheon has the best conditions to promote Robot Land externally. To promote Robot Land naturally, the land will be established in a place where 30 million people using Incheon International Airport annually can see the land when they are on board plane and in car on the airport expressway.\nIt is also possible to publicize Robot Land through the 2009 Incheon World City EXPO and the 2014 Incheon Asian Games and make visitors to the two key international events drop in Robot Land. What I'd like to tell is the Robot Land to be propelled by the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy should be created as a global theme park, which takes robot as a theme for the firs time in the world In this viewpoint, I think, the Incheon Cheongna economic free zone is the best place.\nQ: Would you introduce ripple effects of Robot Land\nA: From the economic side, it can generate 350 billion won worth of production and create employment for about 20,000 people annually.\nFrom the viewpoint of regional development, it can enhance the brand value of Incheon City following the creation of Robot Theme Park for the first time in the world. It can lead the robot industry by linking high-tech industrial estates in IFEZ.\nFrom the industrial side, it can play a role as an advance base to achieve the nation's target of becoming the world's No. 3 robot superpower. By grafting robot on entertainment, we can actively foster the nation's new growth engine industry. Along with this, it can greatly contribute to the nation's economic development by accelerating attraction of foreign tourists to Korea.

The court\u2019s opinion recognized that its decision is contrary to a July 2015 decision of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), in which the EEOC concluded that an allegation of discrimination based on sexual orientation \u201cis necessarily an allegation of sex discrimination under Title VII.\u201d The Court of Appeals also noted the paradox created by its recent decision in light of the United States Supreme Court's 2015 decision that legalized same-sex marriage, stating: \u201cWe allow two women or two men to marry, but allow employers to terminate them for doing so.\u201d The Court of Appeals was clear in its opinion that it does not condone employees being discriminated against \u201csolely based on who they date, love, or marry,\u201d but stated that any change on the subject must come in the form of a ruling from the Supreme Court or in the form of new legislation from Congress. The Court of Appeals\u2019 ruling is less impactful in states like Illinois, which already have anti-discrimination statutes that explicitly protect employees from discrimination and/or harassment on the basis of their sexual orientation and marital status.",

        "title": "Mannar Island - Lanka Excursions Holidays - Kandy",
        "raw_content": "Mannar Island - Sri Lanka's natural bridge to India\n\u201eMannar\u201c is the name of a city and and island and a district in Sri Lanka\u2018s Northern Province. Mannar District, covering 2000 square kilometers, is much larger than the Island of Mannars, which is 30 km long and up to 6 km wide, covering only 130 square kilometers. Distance from Colombo to Mannar Island ist 220 km, as the crow flies.\nMannar Island is linked to the main island of Sri Lanka by a causeway. This 3.5 km long dam is crossed by the A14 highway which starts as a trunk road of A9 highway in Medawachchiya 20 km to the north of Mihintale. A trunk railway line started from Medawachchiya, too. It was severely damaged during the civil war, but will be renovated within the near future. The first segment leading to Madhu was reopened in 2013.\nFeral Horses on Mannar Island\nApart from Delft Island, Mannar Island is the only place in Sri Lanka where you can observe freely roaming horses. The best place to spot feral horses is Mannar Island's only rich wetland. Apart from wild living horses and donkeys, plenty of birds - including seasonal flocks of Flamingos - are attracted by the freshwater of the tiny Korakulum wetland. Fishing cat, a rare species, has been observed in this wetland area, too.\nMannar City and Dutch Fort\nIn ancient times, Mannar was renowned for pearl fishing. Pearls, besides gems and spices, were the main export articles of southern India and Sri Lanka during the heydays of the Roman Empire. Instead of natural goods, Roman silver and gold coins were received in exchange. Mannar is mentioned in the \u201ePeriplus of the Erythraean Sea\u201c, which was a report about the Indian Ocean harbours composed by an anonymous author, who had travelled to India.\nThe Portuguese built Mannar Fort in 1560. It\u2018s situated close to the westernmost point of the island, facing the mainland in order to protect the narrow strait. Mannar Fort surrendered to the Dutch on 22 February 1658, 2 years after the fall of Colombo Fort. In 1996, the Dutch rebuilt and enlarged the fortress. In 1795 they surrendered to the British. Mannar Fort has four bastions. The bastions and ramparts are intact, whereas the other buildings within the fortified area have not been properly maintained. Mannar Fort is currently a base of Sri Lankan security forces.\nDuring many years of the two and a half decades of civil war, parts of Mannar were under control of the ruthless rebel army, thousands of Muslims, called \u201eMoors\u201c in Sri Lanka, were driven out by the LTTE in 1990, though they were native Tamil speakers. The same fate was shared by Muslim and Buddhist minorities in all other parts of rebel-held territory. After the end of LTTE control, particularly after the end of the war, some Muslim families returned to their homes on Mannar Island.\nMannar city is crowded with Hindu temples and Muslim mosques. However, most sacred buildings in town are Roman Catholic churches. With more than 40 % of the population, the proportion of Roman Catholic Christians is higher in Mannar District than in any other district of Sri Lanka. For comparrison, the percentage of Catholics in the entire island nation is only 7%. Mannar city is the bishop\u2018s see of the Mannar diocese. With an estimated 60%, the percentage of Christians in the devisional secretariat of Mannar Island is yet higher than in other parts of Mannar district. There is only one divisonal secretariat with a higher rate (Negombo 65%)\nApart from the Dutch Fort, Mannar town is known for its giant Baobab tree. It's called the \u201ePallimunai Baobab tree\u201c due to its location in a village of the same name. In Sri Lanka, Mannar Island is the region where most of these trees of African origin grow. Mannar has about 30 Baobab trees, compared to roughly 20 on the main island of Sri Lanka. The Baobab in Pallimunai, situated just 1 km to the northwest of Jaffna Fort, is more famous than any other. With an estimated 600 years, it\u2018s the island nation\u2018s oldest and maybe most impressive Baobab tree. There are only two other Baobab trees of comparable size in Sri Lanka, namely on the island of Delft and in the wetlands close to at the seashores to the north of Puttalam.\nTalaimannar and Adam's Bridge alias Rama Setu\nTalaimannar, 25 km to the northwest of Mannar city at the opposite end of the island, is a small fisherman village. The northernmost point of Mannar Island is marked by a British lighthouse and the Talaimannar Pier. In 1914, a ferry service from India\u2018s Danushkodi Point was launched by the British, linking the railway stations of Danushkodi and Talaimannar Jetty, which was the terminus of the railway line from Colombo. The ferry service from an Indian railway station to the Talaimannar station was the easiest way for Indians to travel to the island then known as Ceylon. The British colonial administration had introduced this connection for cheaper transport of Indian labourers, tea plantation workers in particular. The pier later on was served by a station of the Ceylon Government Railway. Talaimannar Jetty was severely damaged by a cyclone in 1964. Three years after that devastating Danushkodi Cylone, a new ferry service commenced between Talaimannar Jetty and a newly contructed pier at Rameshvaram Island and was operated three times a week. In the 1984, during the early stage of the Sri Lankan civil war, the ferry service terminated, it has not been resumed ever since.\nTailaimannar is said to be the most windy place in Sri Lanka. Not surprisingly, Talaimannar is a kitesurfing destination, though not as famous as the island of Kalpitiya.\nIronically, one of the sanddunes of the Rama Setu is devided, the western part of the dune belonging to India and the eastern one to Sri Lanka. Thus, on this islet there is actually a land border of these two states, although Sri Lanka is an island nation. It\u2018s surmised to be the shortest land border anywhere in the world, just 50 m long.\nRama Setu, also known as Adam\u2018s Bridge, is a 25 km long chain of sandbanks and limestone shoals between Mannar and India\u2018s Rammeshvaram Island. It is believed to have been built as a bridge by Lord Rama, when his monkey army had to cross the Ocean from India to liberate Rama\u2018s wife Sita, who was held captive on the island of Lanka by Ravana, a mighty demon king.",

        "raw_content": "Revolt of Four Indian Judges Motives, Ethics, International Precedents and Remedies\nBy DrSastry | Views 55028\nOn Friday January 12, 2018, something unprecedented happened in India. Four Supreme Court judges, Justices Kurian Joseph, Ranjan Gogoi, J. Chelameswar, and Madan Lokur, revolted against Dipak Misra, the Chief Justice of India (CJI). This was a remarkable event considering that the Supreme Court of India has five senior judges.\nOn Friday January 12, 2018, something unprecedented happened in India. Four Supreme Court judges, Justices Kurian Joseph, Ranjan Gogoi, J. Chelameswar, and Madan Lokur, revolted against Dipak Misra, the Chief Justice of India (CJI). This was a remarkable event considering that the Supreme Court of India has five senior judges. The judges held a press conference and publicly criticized the CJI Misra over what they termed as his arbitrary way of assigning vital cases to benches headed by junior Supreme Court Judges, and in so doing ignoring the senior judges. They claimed that he assigned the cases to benches of preference regardless of the fact that the cases had far reaching effects, and consequences on India. The press conference was held at the resident of Justice Chelameswar, the senior most judge, which is only 200 meters from the residence of the Chief Justice (Mahapatra, 2018).\nPossible Causes and Motives\nJustice Chelameswar claimed that the four judges had written a letter to the CJI a few months ago but they did not get a positive reply from him. They also claimed that they had called Justice Misra that same morning before holding their press conference as CJI Misra failed to take their plea seriously. The four judges also revolted against the CJI for turning down their request to shift a certain politically sensitive case from a specific bench. The CJI backed a five-judge bench to hear the case and in so doing assigned himself the sole discretion of assigning cases to the benches he chose. This is despite the fact that a bench led by the CJI admitted a public interest litigation (PIL) on the probe of the death of B.H. Loya, a special Constitutional Bench of India (CBI) judge who was hearing a case on Sohrabuddin Sheikh\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s encounter. The four judges were all members of the Collegium system that appointed judges since they all are senior judges. The four judges thought that since the matter on the death of B.H. Loya was vital to the integrity of the judiciary, it should have been assigned to a bench headed by a more senior judge instead of Justice Arun Mishra, who was 10th\u00c2 in the pecking order of the judges of the Supreme Court (Mahapatra, 2018). The four judges may have felt that the CJI used his discretion to appoint members of a bench wrongly in order to influence the outcome of the ruling.\nNevertheless, it is vital to note that even before the revolt Justice Chelameswar had a history of being a dissenting voice in the India judiciary. Indeed, this was not the first time that he was speaking against a judgment of the Supreme Court. Some of the landmark decisions of Justice Chelameswar include nullifying Section 66 of the Information Technology Act. Justice Chelameswar also led the bench that referred the issue of the privacy concerns of Aadhaar, a unique 12-digit identity number issued to all Indians, to a bigger Constitutional Bench. Justice Chelameswar was the only dissenting voice in the Constitutional Bench. In addition, he shut out the attempt of the Indian government to assume control of the appointment of judges (Mahapatra, 2018). Such a person of good credentials, soon after the press conference, had a meeting with a left wing political party leader at his residence, which caught the attention of the media and led to attribution of political motives to his revolt. In a way, this very act of Justice Chelameswar meeting Politician Raja has fizzled out the whole issue as politically motivated.\nEthics of the Revolt of the Indian Judges\nThe issues raised by the judges involve the issue of propriety. Propriety refers to behaving in a manner that conforms to the accepted standard of behavior and morals. It involves the fear of going against the rules that govern behavior. Judicial propriety required the four judges to respect the decision of the Supreme Court and the Chief Justice to whom they are subordinate regardless of whether they agree with the decision or not. Propriety comprises certain principles, which include openness, integrity, objectivity, and honesty. Therefore, addressing the media was a violation of judicial impropriety. Convention required the judges to resolve internal matters internally. In addition, addressing the media set a wrong precedent of publicizing the internal matters of the judiciary. It led to the tarnishing of the image, reputation and credibility of the judiciary since there were incapable of solving internal matters without involving the public.\nNevertheless, the four judges justified their actions by claiming that they did not have any other option since the CJI did not listen to their repeated pleas to solve the issue internally. In addition, it would have been wrong for the judges to remain silent since would have been tantamount to keeping Indian citizens in the dark, which is an unacceptable practice in a democracy like India. The four judges claimed that the integrity of the CJI was compromised.\nRegardless of these explanations, it is vital to note that going to the press did more harm than good to the Supreme Court. It questioned the sanctity of the Supreme Court and opened the door to multifarious views some of which may tarnish its image. Ideally, the four judges should have called for a conference of all judges of the Supreme Court to discuss the issue. If this move was unsuccessful, they could have requested help from the President.\nComparison of Indian Case with International Revolts among Judges\nCanada is one of the jurisdictions where there have been public disagreements of judges. In December 2017, Justice George Rideout of the Court of the Queens Bench accused the Chief Justice David Smith of violating the law. Therefore, he asked him to resign. The issue that led to the disagreement is the change in the Judicature Act by the provincial government, which required the chief justice to seek the approval of the Attorney Generals office prior to relocating judges from one place to another. Chief Justice Smith claimed the law was unconstitutional since it interfered with the independence of the judiciary. This lend to tensions between judges when Chief Justice Smith approved the relocation of Justice Thomas Christie from Saint John to Frederiction despite the fact that the province had temporarily blocked his relocation. This prompted Rideout to claim that Smith was breaking the law and setting a bad precedence and should therefore resign (Bissett, 2018).\nIn Australia, Athol Moffitt, the former President of New South Wales Court of Appeals, criticized James Wood, New South Wales Supreme Court Justice, for making public statements on the drug wars in the state of New South Wales. Justice Moffitt claimed that it was wrong for judges to venture into politically disputed areas as this risked interfering with the independence of the judiciary and public confidence on the judiciary (Lee, 2011).\nPublic conflict among members of the judiciary also occurred in Bangladesh in late 2017. The government was infuriated by the decision of the Chief Justice S.K. Sinha to scrap the authority of parliament to impeach judges of the Supreme Court. In an unprecedented move, the judges of the Supreme Court refused to sit in Sinha's bench over allegations of moral lapses and graft, which they had been told by President Abdul Hamid. On September 30, 2017, President Hamid had invited all five Supreme Court judges to the presidential palace but barred the chief justice from the meeting. He subsequently held long discussions with the judges. The chief justice was accused of graft after he left the country for Australia in mid-October 2017 (Habib, 2017).\nIn the U.S., judges of the 9th\u00c2 Circuit Court of Appeal engaged in a public feud over the travel ban implemented by President Donald Trump. Five 9th A Circuit judges recorded their opposition to the decision that three other judges of the 9th\u00c2 Circuit had issued the previous month. The decision of the three judges refused to allow the reinstatement of the first version of the travel ban that Trump had implemented using an executive order. The five judges who opposed the travel ban included Judges Alex Konziski, Jay Bybee, Carlos Bea, Sandra Ikuta, and Consuelo Callahan (Gerstein, 2017). The public disagreements show the sharp divisions in the U.S. judiciary on the implementation of President Trump first Executive Order banning Muslim travel to the U.S. in line with his campaign promise.\nRevolts in the Judiciary and Democracy\nThe judiciary helps in safeguarding the democracy of a country. In addition, public perception is the foundation of democracy. This is the major reason as to why so much effort is invested to manage public perception. Sadly, the perception of the democracy is harmed when there is mutiny in the judiciary. In the case involving the four judges of the Supreme Court of India, the judges failed to acknowledge the fact that the Chief Justice as the first among equals has the right to safeguard the welfare of the judiciary and its public perception. Therefore, the four judges erred in washing the dirty linen of the Supreme Court in public. They should have solved these problems internally. They should have respected the institution of judiciary by respecting the fact that it is above the people that manage it. In addition, the public pronouncements of the four judges are a sign that the judiciary is getting politicized. Therefore, by making pronouncements to the press, the judges engaged in unethical conduct. Since the Chief Justice is the master of the roster, he should not distinguish between VIP and non-VIP cases. The Chief Justice is empowered by the constitution to assign cases to any judge. It was wrong for the four judges to expect that they should receive certain cases. It is also vital to note that the Chief Justice should also bear the blame of the tarnishing of the image of the judiciary. As the father of the judiciary, he should not have allowed the issues to go out of hand. The Bangladesh case shows the negative impact of such a revolt on democracy. It shows the revolt may be used by people in power to influence the judiciary and overthrow a chief justice who they perceive does provide them with preferential treatment.\nRemedies for Non-Recurrence of Such Revolts\nSimilar revolts may be avoided by ensuring that there are efficient systems to address the concerns of members of the judiciary. People should also not be quick to rebuke the judges for their mutiny. Instead, more focus should be put on their grievances to ensure they are tackled effectively. It is also vital for the government to stay away from the internal conflicts of the judiciary to ensure it maintains its autonomy. May the computerization of roster and developing of an algorithm which allocates cases to various benches without any human intervention, be the best solution to avoid such concerns.\nWritten by: Dr.V.V.L.N.

        "raw_content": "LOUIS M. KILBURN.\nA spirit of enterprise and progress actuates Louis M. Kilburn in all that he does. He has worked diligently and persistently to develop and improve his farm, which is today a good property of seven hundred and fifty-four acres on sections 10 and 11, Cream Ridge township. He has lived in this part of Missouri since his birth and has become widely and favorably known, making for himself an enviable place in the regard of his fellow citizens.\nLouis M. Kilburn was born upon his father's farm in Grundy county, April 5, 1861, and is a son of Henry and Mary (Crawford) Kilburn, pioneers in that section. The father made his home there at an early date, coming from Kentucky, and for a number of years was identified with agricultural interests. He was a successful, able and enterprising man and in the course of his honorable and upright life gained high regard and a wide circle of friends. He died in September, 1892, at the age of seventy-three years, having survived his wife since 1864. Both are buried in the Stucker graveyard, Grundy county. The family is of old German origin, but its representatives have been in America for centuries.\nLouis M. Kilburn acquired his education at the Prairie Valley schoolhouse, attending during the winter months and in the summers assisting his father. After he had attained his majority he began his independent agricultural career upon a farm of one hundred and sixty acres, which was presented to him by his father. This he has added to from time to time as his financial resources justified and now owns seven hundred and fifty-four acres, one of the finest farms in this part of the state. Upon it Mr. Kilburn has built a modern residence and fine barns, which he has equipped with scales and feeders. He has also built the necessary sheds and has fenced his entire place, making it a model farming property. The latest improved machinery is used to facilitate the work of the fields and everything about the place is kept in excellent condition. Mr. Kilburn raises and feeds stock on an extensive scale, this branch of his interests forming an important addition to his income. He is a director in the Exchange Bank of Chula and this and all of his other business affairs are capably conducted, so that he has now reached a position of affluence, being numbered among the substantial citizens of the community.\nMr. Kilburn has been twice married. His first union occurred on the 13th of March, 1883, when he wedded Miss Susan Tidrich , a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Tidrich, the former one of the early settlers in Grundy county. Mrs. Kilburn passed away in November, 1904, and is buried in the Stucker graveyard. She left to mourn her loss five children: Albert, who is a real-estate dealer in Kansas City, Missouri; Charles, a farmer of Livingston county; Grace, the wife of Brock Smith, who is also engaged in farming in this county; Naomi, the wife of E. Taylor, a farmer in the same township; and Mont, who is attending school. Mr. Kilburn's second marriage occurred on December 3, 1908, on which date he wedded Miss Myrtle Grimes, a daughter of John and Rachel Grimes, of Livingston county. Mr. Kilburn gives his allegiance to the democratic party and fraternally is affiliated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Modern Woodmen of America.",

Carmel was proclaimed patron of the town of Rute in southern Spain on February 13, 1924. Her beloved image goes back to the late 1600s, when Luisa Rold\u00e1n (La Roldana) of Seville carved the head and hands. Made to be dressed, the statue did not have a proper body until the 1960s. It occupies a neo-baroque setting over the main altar, also of the 1960s. Rute honors its patron several times a year. The anniversary celebration lasts three days, culminating on February 13 with mass, presentations to the Chief of the Brotherhood and the Fiesta Queen of gifts made for the Virgin, and a ceremony of kissing the scapular of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. Her liturgical feast day July 16 is the focus of another three-day celebration. On the last Sunday of June, the traslado is held, when the statue goes in procession through the neighborhood to the main parish church of Santa Catalina M\u00e1rtir. Another triduum is celebrated around the feast of the Assumption, August 14-16.\nSource: http://www.wherewewalked.info/feasts/02-February/02-13.htm\n\"Virgen del Carmen.

        "raw_content": "Category: Project 1 The distorting lens\nThis exercise looks at perspective by keeping the subject at the same size within the frame while changing focal lengths. Unlike the previous exercise, this will require changing camera to subject distance and this will change the perspective within each shot.\nThe first image requires a medium distance portrait taken with my longest focal length. Of my three lens, the 56mm (85mm equivalent) is the longest and is a classic portrait lens, a short telephoto. The ISO was 800, the aperture f8 and exposure was 1/125 th of a second.\nThe second image is taken with my shortest focal length of 16mm (24mm equivalent) at ISO2 200, f1.6 and the exposure was 1/1250 th of a second.\nThe images look strikingly different. The distortion in the face and hat is noticeable and the difference in angle of view has introduced elements of sky which were absent in the previous image. In the first image I was standing about 8 feet away and in the second about 2 feet. Despite the difference in aperture, the background is out of focus in both images although the light out of focus branch in the first image is distracting The lighting is similar but it does show how perspective distortions can radically affect the appearance of a subject.\nMartin Schoeller manages to combine the use of a mild telephoto with proximity to dramatic effect in his portraits, \u201cClose Up\u201d being a very famous project. Despite using a 140mm lens on his 6x7cm Mamiya RZ67 (it\u2019s field of view is 35\u02da, equivalent to a 72mm lens in 35mm terms or mild telephoto) he still manages to induce distortion and an almost uncomfortable sense of reality due to his relatively close proximity to his subject (4-5 feet).\nUsed carefully, this provides a spectacularly alternative take on classic portraiture which is compelling to view, especially when the images are printed larger than life size.\nhttps://martinschoeller.com/WORK/Close-Up/18 \u2013 accessed January 2018\nThis is the first exercise in Part 2 of the EYV course, Imaginative Spaces and we are now using the camera in Aperture Priority mode, meaning I can select the aperture but the camera will select the shutter speed and ISO. This exercise requires finding a scene with depth and from a fixed position taking a sequence of images shot at different focal lengths without changing viewpoint.\nI own three prime lens only ,so showing 5-6 focal lengths isn\u2019t possible for me, but the effect is still visible. To make up for only having 3 focal lengths available, I have repeated the exercise.\na 16mm f1.4 lens, equivalent to a 24mm lens on a 35mm camera with an angle of view (diagonal) of 83 \u02da\na 35mm f2 lens, equivalent to a 53mm lens on a 35mm camera with an angle of view (diagonal) of 44\u02da\na 56mm f1.2 lens, equivalent to an 85mm lens on a 35mm camera with an angle of view (diagonal) of 29\u02da\nWhat these images show is a changing angle of view, however the perspective has not changed in these views which I can demonstrate by cropping the first two images to give roughly the same image as the third, see below:\nAlthough these images all have slightly different apertures, f13, f11 and f5.6 respectively, bar any distortion in the lens and slightly off centre cropping we can see that the perspective in each scene is the same.\nIn the first set of images I maintained my viewpoint by leaning against a traffic signpost. In this second set of images I used a tripod to keep the point of view absolutely fixed.\nIn both image sets it is clearly the central image which most closely accords to the perspective of the human eye, however the field of view is definitely much wider and taller than even the widest lens used here.",

They tend to not stop to think of other people. They also tend to write a lot of books telling people who are not Type A how to get the job done. I remember all the books my wife tried to get me to read about being the perfect husband. The anecdotes that were given usually showed a young man who was very self centered and insensitive. The one that sticks in my mind was a guy who went out to play basketball with the guys on their first wedding anniversary and left his wife sitting alone at home with a romantic candlelight dinner prepared. Really?\nMaybe we need some kind of Government Personality Label like the nutrition labels on my soup. It would be good to know if an author is Type A, a liberal, schizophrenic or married with children. I would like to know what I am taking into my mind as much as I need to know what I take into my body. I already have filters like this when it comes to sources of news. If it is from the New York Times, the L.A. Times or the Washington Post I prepare my baloney filters and keep purging them as I read. Usually I just don\u2019t bother to read. It is a little harder to discern if it is a book about marriage, gardening or raising children.\nI don\u2019t expect it to happen.

        "raw_content": "Team Spirit 1987 Part 3.\nOne of the interesting things about this exercise was the wood. I have mentioned, earlier, that I spent a lot of time doing things with wood while I was there. The interesting thing was that, after the wood had gone to Korea, we were not allowed to bring it back to Okinawa. I was told that the wood we took there, and left there, would be used to provide heat and housing for thousands of people. I have no idea if that is true but I do know that we didn\u2019t take any of my works of art back with us.\nOur unit\u2019s ops people seriously under-estimated the amount of wood that it would take to provide tent floors and walkways for the number of people that would eventually join us there. I have a feeling that this was actually part of an on-going contest among all of the supply sergeants involved in the exercise. Unfortunately, for all the others, our supply sergeant was not an amateur. A good supply sergeant is basically someone that you would not want to have living next door to you unless you enjoy inventorying your children, pets and silverware on an hourly basis. Don\u2019t get me wrong. They aren\u2019t exactly dishonest. It\u2019s just that their unit is more important to them than anything else in the world. A good supply sergeant will lie, cheat, steal and do a lot of other socially unacceptable things in order to make sure that \u2018his\u2019 people have everything that they need. A great supply sergeant will even take into consideration things that people want rather than need. Our supply sergeant was one of the great ones.\nI saw him in action a few times and I don\u2019t want to go into details in case he is still alive somewhere and taking care of someone else, but we ended up with three times as much wood as we were supposed to have, and it was enough for us to make all of the walkways and tent floors necessary, with a little to spare. He spent a lot of time with us when there were only 20 people from our unit over there, before the \u2018main party\u2019 arrived, and I got to know him pretty well, but he rotated before I did, and I never saw him again. He could get anything that we asked for, from electronics spares to exotic food. A genuine character.\nI\u2019ve seen a lot of things dropped by cranes and, especially, helicopters because, in the operator\u2019s opinion, the load has become unstable. (I\u2019ll never forget watching a helicopter drop a Lister bag with my section\u2019s supply of drinking water for the next week in it, into the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Honduras, after it started swinging, or the choices that we had to make afterwards. No water for three days and you die. Drink radiator water with anti-freeze in it and go blind. Drink out of the river and you never know what you will get. We took the third option and I still don\u2019t know what we got but I lost 40 pounds in 4 days. Why didn\u2019t we boil the river water? We were not allowed to start fires.)\nAnyway, back to Korea. At the port a helicopter was lifting a very expensive van. (I heard that this little incident cost close to a million dollars but who knows. It wasn\u2019t one of my vans.) A few seconds after the van was in the air the helo pilot lost control and had the cargo handler cut the cable. The van glanced off the dock and fell into some relatively deep water. It had been expensive because of the amount of electronics equipment in it. Electronics equipment and salt water don\u2019t mix well. It was written off.\nThat leads to the story of my solitary walks along the sea wall and other places near the air station. There was a gravel loading facility, for ships, near the base, and I soon began to notice the crane operators\u2019 style. There were at least two because at least one of them was an artist. The way to tell was that his bucket cable was never vertical. He, or she, would literally throw the bucket into the pile of gravel, jaws open, take a big bite, and then throw the load into the hold of the ship. It was amazing. The other(s) were considerably more sedate. In one way or another I have controlled a lot of machinery over the years, but that crane operator, or those crane operators, were spot on every time, and that is something that I surely can\u2019t say.\nCleanup after this exercise was especially nasty. We were in the middle of a stinking soupy mud patch, in the rain, when we got the word to tear down. One of the many things that a Marine is not allowed to transport is mud and we were going to have go through de-snailing before we could load out. Snails are another thing that Marines are not allowed to transport. I remember spending three days in Norway going through a de-snailing inspection, even though all of our vans had already flown out.\nThe TACC Center \u2018bubble\u2019 was originally designed to house Mobile Army Surgical Hospitals. It was made up of half circular inflatable sections sitting on honeycomb floor panels that were, in turn, held up by extensible legs. I think they were originally manufactured by a company that might have been named Aircrafters, sometime in the late 1960s. To convert a MASH into a TACC center only required some modifications to the end panels so that two vans could be attached to them.\nIf you think in terms of 5-ton truckloads, an entire \u2018light\u2019 TACC center (fully functional but with no amenities) could be moved on 17 trucks. Of those 17 only four would have gear on them that didn\u2019t belong to the TACC people. TDCC needed two and so did my section. I don\u2019t know who designed this system but setting it up and tearing it down was a lot more labor intensive than anything I ever did while I was a tank crewman.\nBefore the \u2018bubble\u2019 can be deflated, everything has to be off of the interior floor. The controller\u2019s scopes weighed several hundred pounds and had exactly four carrying handles. The side with the CRT on it was about twice as heavy as the other side. The worst items were the WASD Coffins. (Weapons And Systems Display carrying cases.) Each one was filled with three primitive CRT devices that were used to show the weapons and fuel status for fighters that the TACC center controlled. I would say that they weighed over 600 pounds and had 6 carrying handles. (There is a four-inch section of my spine, on the right side, just above the pelvis, that has no muscles attached to it, because of a WASD coffin carrying accident.)\nAfter all of the junk is out of the bubble and the ramps and end panels have been torn down and stowed, the fun starts. The rain strips are unlaced and the manifold operator opens all of the outlet valves for a section, which quickly deflates. Then we would roll it up into what was called a \u2018burrito\u2019 and try to get it into one of the storage shelters. We had some spectacular mishaps trying to get these objects through the narrow storage van doors and onto the top of the stack. Each \u2018burrito\u2019 weighed more than 300 pounds and they were always slippery with talcum powder and general slick rubber obstreperousness. They were especially difficult in rain. I\u2019ve seen people slammed into the walls of vans when they missed the door, people that ended up under a \u2018burrito\u2019 when they did not get out of the way in time, and a few occasions when someone already under one was piled onto by a whole stack of bubble sections when a stack fell over. We never lost anyone and never had any injuries more serious than broken bones, but the point was that we were putting the thing away. We were getting ready to go back to where our current home was, even if it was a barracks in a foreign country. No matter what happened, it was funny, as long as no one was seriously injured.\nThe next part was the real bastard. We had to clean all of the electrical cables that had interconnected all of the pieces of the system and the cables had to be neatly stowed on reels with the connectors bagged and sealed. Korea was the worst cable cleaning that I ever had to go through. We worked for 36 hours straight, under searchlights when necessary, and it rained constantly. (Oddly enough, after we were packed up, it stopped raining and the next few days were beautiful.) We had two 55-gallon drums cut in half (we got them from the supply sergeant) and we had to pull each cable through a few feet at a time. The people on the dirty end knocked off the big chunks and the people on the clean end did the final polish. I\u2019m not sure exactly where I was all the time but a lot of the work was done by two of my Woman Marines, Lance Corporals Pope and Stelly. (Oddly enough, Lance Corporal Pope eventually married a man whose last name was King.) They never complained. Somehow they never got to do any of the heavy lifting (neither of them was more than five feet four inches tall) but they would volunteer for anything that was required to get us out of wherever we were. I was and am proud of them.\nAfter the cables were on the reels we had to take down the floor that had been sitting out in the rain for two days. Some of the floor panels were still sealed but it was easy to tell when the one that you had grabbed was not. When those panels were full of water, they were very heavy, and you never knew until it had come loose from the rest of the floor. We usually had two people, in chain of ants, hauling the floor panels off to their pallets and they could be stacked nearly four feet high. (I saw a fork lift blow a hydraulic line out at Yuma, Arizona, while trying to pick up a pallet of floor panels after a rain.)\nOnce the floor panels were all on the pallets the support \u2018legs\u2019 had to be collected and washed. I think that was all there was to it, except putting away the two inflation pumps. The inflation pumps were the ultimate cruelty, though. After all that work our hands were a little sore. The inflation pumps weighed about 400 pounds each, and had two carrying handles on each side, a few inches apart. It was very difficult to carry the old ones because the handles were just too close to each other. (Some genius heard about this and the new model only had one handle on each side, but still weighed 400 pounds. I\u2019m not sure what that was all about.)\nBelieve it or not, I wound up staying with the \u2018retrograde\u2019 party after going to Korea with the \u2018advanced\u2019 party. Retrograde meant that I got to tear down most of the stuff that I had put up some time before. It was a little sad. The liberty was still great but we were alone again. The only funny part was when some unit commander had let his whole unit go home except for himself and his First Sergeant, and then found out that he was responsible for tearing down and packing all of his tents and hauling his tent floors and walkways off to the communal pile. He looked a little grim but his First Sergeant was positively livid and spent a few days tearing things apart with great gusto.\nWhen I got back to Okinawa it was mid-summer, I think, and I appreciated that place like I never had before. I had a lot of trouble sleeping for some reason and I would frequently get up a little after midnight and start walking south along the highway towards Naha. More than once I went all the way to the center of the Naha Bridge to look at the brass map of the world inset into the concrete there. I don\u2019t remember what I was thinking. At the time I didn\u2019t have any appreciation of the number of American military people, men and women, that had been there before me, on their way to Vietnam, or the number that never came back.",

        "title": "The Islamic State: From al-Qaeda Affiliate to Caliphate | Middle East Policy Council",
        "raw_content": "The Islamic State: From al-Qaeda Affiliate to Caliphate\nAhmed S. Hashim\nDr. Hashim is associate professor of strategic studies, Military Studies Program at RSIS, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.\nThe dramatic victories in summer 2014 of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) over rival groups fighting the regime of Bashar al-Assad \u2014 and over the government of Iraq and Kurdish forces \u2014 culminated in the declaration of a caliphate, or the Islamic State. The international community became alarmed, and the lightning ISIS advance in Iraq was blunted in mid-August by U.S. air power. Air strikes were ramped up in September and October in both Iraq and Syria by the United States and an ad hoc coalition of Middle Eastern and European states.\nThere has been a scramble by policy makers, militaries, intelligence officials and journalists from around the globe to understand the ISIS phenomenon, resulting in a profusion of unverified and contradictory information.* This study, drawing from a multitude of open sources, seeks to provide a concise overview of the origins, ideology, goals and military operations of ISIS in Iraq and Syria from 2003 to the present in order to help governments understand and deal with this phenomenon.\nTHE ORIGINS OF ISIS/IS\nISIS/IS has its origins in an obscure militant group, Jamaat al-Tawhid wal-Jihad (JTJ), that was stood up in 2000 by a Jordanian one-time criminal-turned-Islamist named Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (AMZ).1 His intent was to fight the Jordanian government, but he failed to gain traction.2 Zarqawi then traveled to Afghanistan to fight on the side of the mujahidin (resistance) in the jihad against the Soviets. Having arrived after their departure, he soon returned to his homeland to fight the well-entrenched Jordanian monarchy. His efforts came to naught, and he eventually returned to Afghanistan, where he ran an Islamic militant training camp near Herat. No evidence exists that he had much interaction with Osama bin Laden or his organization, al-Qaeda. AMZ claimed he was influenced by Abdullah Azzam, the Palestinian Jordanian Islamist thinker who exhorted Arabs to fight the Soviets alongside the Afghan mujahidin: \"We used to receive some audiocassettes recorded by Sheikh Abdullah Azzam, may he rest in peace. He had a great influence on my decision to engage in jihad.\"3\nFollowing the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan, al-Zarqawi moved into Iraq. There he developed extensive ties with Ansar al-Islam (Partisans of Islam), a Kurdish Islamist group. In March 2003, the United States invaded and occupied Iraq. A brilliant conventional campaign led to the erroneous belief on the part of the George W. Bush administration that Iraq would stabilize and progress towards democracy. By summer 2003, the disgruntled Sunni minority \u2014 toppled from power with the downfall of Saddam Hussein \u2014 launched a deadly insurgency. It consisted of five distinct groups, four composed largely of Iraqis from the former regime, nationalists, tribal elements and various Islamist fighters. The fifth group was AMZ's JTJ, consisting of a smattering of Iraqis and many foreign fighters.\nJTJ developed into a network aimed at resisting the coalition occupation forces and their Iraqi allies. Its goals: to (i) force a withdrawal of coalition forces from Iraq; (ii) topple the Iraqi interim government; (iii) assassinate collaborators with the occupation regime; (iv) target the Shia population and defeat its deadly militias; and (v) establish an Islamic state under sharia, God's law. AMZ declared that the JTJ political platform was based on a saying attributed to the Prophet Mohammed: \"I was sent to the world with a sword in my hand until all worship would be devoted to Allah alone.\"4 AMZ elaborates his project:\nWe will fight in the cause of God until His shariah prevails. The first step is to expel the enemy and establish the state of Islam. We would then go forth to reconquer the Muslim lands and restore them to the Muslim nation.... I swear by God that even if the Americans had not invaded our lands together with the Jews, the Muslims would still be required not to refrain from jihad but go forth and seek the enemy until only God Almighty's shariah prevailed everywhere in the world.... Our political project is to expel this marauding enemy. This is the first step. Afterwards our goal is to establish God's shariah all over the globe.... We will not be revealing a secret when we say that we seek to establish Islamic justice in the entire world and crush the injustice of disbelief and the iniquity of other religions.5\nIn pursuit of his goals, AMZ left a trail of death and destruction in Iraq. JTJ differed considerably from the other Iraqi insurgent groups. Rather than using only guerrilla tactics \u2014 ambushes, raids and hit-and-run attacks against the U.S. forces \u2014 it relied heavily on suicide bombers. It targeted a wide variety of groups: the Iraqi security forces, Iraqi Shia and Kurdish political and religious figures, Shia Muslim civilians, foreign civilian contractors, and UN and humanitarian workers. AMZ reserved much of his ire for the Shia of Iraq. In February 2004, AMZ had called the Shia the \"insurmountable obstacle, the lurking snake, the crafty and malicious scorpion, the spying enemy, and the penetrating venom.\" AMZ was very adept at using the Internet to promote his message, recruit personnel and terrorize his enemies, posting his first communiqu\u00e9 on a jihadist website in April 2004. Through creating a worldwide network, Zarqawi's volunteers posted messages from their leader and videos of militant acts, like beheadings, on multiple servers. This avoided delays in downloading and made it difficult for the material to be removed from the World Wide Web.\nAMZ JOINS AL-QAEDA\nIn late 2004, AMZ brought his group under the loose control of Osama bin Laden; the group officially pledged allegiance to the al-Qaeda network in a letter in October 2004. The new organization, Tanzim Qaidat al-Jihad fi Bilad al-Rafidayn, or al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI), provided al-Qaeda with a ready-made base from which to strike the United States and AMZ with prestige. He was now part of a brand name that drew recruits and financial and logistical support.\nIn March 2005, AQI articulated a cohesive ideological vision \u2014 its \"creed and methodology\" \u2014 in which it expressed its determination to promote and defend tawhid (monotheism) and eliminate polytheism. It defined anyone who did not believe in the essential unity/oneness of God as an infidel and subject to takfir (excommunication) and death. It expressed the belief that the Prophet Mohammad is God's messenger for the entire human race and viewed secularism (ilmaniyah) and all other isms \u2014 nationalism, tribalism, communism and Baathism \u2014 as \"blatant violations of Islam.\" Jihad was the duty of all Muslims if the infidels attacked. Waging jihad against the enemies of Islam was next in importance to the profession of the shahada (faith). AQI argued that all Muslims \u2014 excluding the Shia \u2014 constitute one nation. There is no differentiation between Arabs and non-Arabs; piety is what counts.\nIn the words of Abu Maysara al-Iraqi, then the chief spokesman of AQI, the goals are explicit:\n\u2022 Remove the \"aggressor\" from Iraq.\n\u2022 Affirm tawhid, oneness of God among Muslims.\n\u2022 Propagate the message that \"there is no god but God\" to all the countries in which Islam is absent.\n\u2022 Wage jihad to liberate Muslim territories from infidels and apostates.\n\u2022 Fight the taghut (illegitimate) rulers of Muslim lands.\n\u2022 \"Establish a wise caliphate\" in which the sharia rules supreme, as it did during the time of the Prophet Mohammad.\n\u2022 \"Spread monotheism on earth, cleanse it of polytheism, to govern according to the laws of God....\"6\nAMZ and al-Qaeda Central (AQC), the top leadership, saw eye to eye on ideology and goals, but problems arose over AQI's modus operandi in Iraq. AMZ's tactic of engaging in mass civilian casualties, earning him the sobriquet \"sheikh of the slaughterers,\" aroused grave concern from his mentor Abu Muhammad Al-Maqdisi, a leading Salafist thinker based in Jordan, and among al-Qaeda leaders, including second-in-command Ayman al-Zawahiri. In July 2005, differences of opinion between Al-Maqdisi and AMZ came out into the open. In his \"Message of Support and Advice,\" published on his website Minbar al-Tawhid wa al-Jihad, Maqdisi advised AMZ to stop targeting civilians, churches and Shia. The real enemy, added Maqdisi, was the American occupier. AMZ responded that the advice was unfair; he viewed the Shia as rejectionists and apostates and considered fighting them to be more important than fighting non-Muslims. 7 AMZ blamed the Shia for the vicious sectarian conflict:\nWe did not initiate fighting with them, nor did we point our slings at them. It was they who started liquidating the cadres of the Sunni people, rendering them homeless, and usurping their mosques and houses.8\nAyman al-Zawahiri apparently sent a letter to AMZ on July 9, 2005, that was intercepted by U.S. military forces. In the letter, Zawahiri expresses total agreement with the goals of the jihadist military efforts in Iraq but expresses grave reservations with AMZ's tactics. The jihadists cannot win without the hearts and minds of the (Sunni) Muslim masses and the ulema (scholars). More locals \u2014 Iraqis \u2014 need to be the face of AQI. The Taliban in Afghanistan lacked popular support; hence they succumbed. Zawahiri adds that the Shia are truly treacherous and cannot be trusted but questions whether it is necessary to slaughter them in such a manner. It alienates Muslim opinion and distracts the jihadists from fighting the Americans; the conflict with the Shia can wait. Finally, is it really necessary, asks Zawahiri, to engage in public displays of brutality such as the beheadings of hostages? This was not good public relations.\nTHE RISE AND FALL OF THE ISI\nIt is not clear what impact AQC's expression of concern had, but in January 2006, AQI created an umbrella organization called the Mujahideen Shura Council (MSC) in an attempt to unify Sunni insurgents in Iraq. Its efforts to recruit Iraqi Sunni nationalists and secular groups were undermined by its violent tactics against civilians. When the U.S. military killed Zarqawi on June 7, 2006, a top AQ operative, Abu Hamza al-Muhajir (aka Abu Ayub al-Masri), was promoted to be the AQI representative in Iraq. Soon afterward, the organization announced the establishment of the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) under the leadership of Abu Omar al-Baghdadi. Abu Hamza al-Muhajir stated that the mujahidin have \"reached the end of a stage of jihad and the start of a new one, in which we lay the first cornerstone of the Islamic Caliphate project and revive the glory of religion.\"9 The creation of the first Islamic state was supported by some obscure jihadist thinkers. However, it set off a storm of criticism among Iraqi insurgent groups, who considered the project a deviation from the main task of fighting the American occupiers. Most of the groups made it clear that they were interested in liberating Iraq and not in creating an Islamic state.\nThe first Islamic-state project was a failure. The jihadists simply did not have the resources or personnel to rule over a territory and people. Furthermore, the death of AMZ did not lessen the jihadists' reign of terror, accelerating the loss of support from the Sunni tribes and Iraqi insurgents. This was made worse by its attempts to muscle in on Sunni economic enterprises, and its propensity to insult Sunni tribal mores and customs accelerated. The falling out led to the emergence of the Sahwa (Awakening) movement. The tribes and Sunni insurgents allied with their erstwhile enemy, the United States, to fight ISI, in return for integration of the Sunni fighters into the Iraqi security services and for economic largesse to majority-Sunni areas. The weight of force directed against them proved too much for ISI. In 2008, it was describing itself as being in a state of \"extraordinary crisis.\"\nBy the end of 2008, ISI was apparently defeated, and Iraq was on the path to stability and security. In early 2009, U.S. forces began pulling out of cities across the country, turning over the task of maintaining security to the vastly enlarged and American-trained Iraqi Security Forces. Later that year, to the consternation of the U.S. and Iraqi governments, ISI rebounded and appeared to be launching a concerted effort to cripple the Iraqi government. During August and October 2009, ISI began to sabotage government infrastructure and launch terror attacks against civilians, killing hundreds.\nNonetheless, ISI suffered a significant blow on April 18, 2010, when its top leadership, Abu Ayub al-Masri and Abu Umar Abdullah al-Rashid al-Baghdadi, were both killed in a joint U.S.-Iraqi raid near Tikrit. By June 2010, 80 percent of the group's 42 leaders, including recruiters and financers, had been killed or captured, with only eight remaining at large. The decapitation of the leadership in 2010 set the stage for the emergence of the current and most successful leader, Ibrahim Awwad Ibrahim Ali al-Badri al-Samarrai (aka Dr. Ibrahim, Abu Dua, and Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi). It is difficult to pin down exactly who this elusive character is. It is said he is descended from the Prophet Muhammad and that he hails from the al-Bu Badri tribe, which is primarily based in Samarra and Diyala. Following the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi helped create Jaysh Ahl al-Sunnah wa-l-Jamah (the Army of the Sunni People), an active jihadist group that operated in Samarra, Diyala and Baghdad. U.S. forces arrested Abu Bakr in February 2004 and released him in December that year because he was not deemed to be a High Value Target. The Jaysh Ahl al-Sunnah leadership pledged allegiance to AQI and joined the umbrella organization.10\nISI REEMERGES\nBetween 2010 and 2013, four key factors contributed to the reemergence of ISI: organizational restructuring coupled with the rebuilding of its military and administrative capacities; the dysfunctional nature of the Iraqi state and its growing conflict with the Sunni population; the fading away of al-Qaeda under the leadership of Ayman al-Zawahiri; and the outbreak of the Syrian civil war.\nISI goals became more nuanced and concisely articulated by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as the overthrow of illegitimate governments and the creation of an Islamic caliphate. This came out clearly once al-Baghdadi transformed his organization into the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and subsequently into the Islamic State. The focus on the caliphate has been elaborated in detail in the Islamic State's glossy magazine, Dabiq, of which there have been four issues to date. The first dealt with the importance of the declaration of the caliphate, among other matters. The caliphate represents the onset of a new era of \"might and dignity\" for the Muslims. The focus on creating an Islamic state is the defining element for ISIS, even if it was unable to gain the acclaim of the Islamic world and even if the state proves short-lived. It differs from al-Qaeda in its superior abilities to articulate an effective vision and a military strategy for implementing it. Even if ISIS fails, and there is every indication of impending overreach, this vision is remarkable for its audacity.\nHaving an ideology and goals of breathtaking ambition is not sufficient. ISI was a moribund mess when Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi took over; his revival of the organization began in 2010 and culminated in the organizational structure we see today. Much of the success of ISIS is due to the creation of a cohesive, disciplined and flexible organization by al-Baghdadi and other Iraqis that he hired, including, it is alleged, a former senior Iraqi army officer known as \"Hajji Bakr.\" First, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi began by learning from and avoiding the mistakes of AMZ, such as spectacular and provocative attacks. AMZ's successor, Abu-Umar al-Baghdadi, erred by focusing on the mind-numbing minutiae of the organization and micromanaging his subordinates. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi built a hierarchical and centralized organization that was flexible enough to allow subordinates wide latitude in the field, as long as they stayed within the mission guidelines established by the leader.\nSecond, Abu-Bakr al-Baghdadi reduced the role of the Arab expatriates in leadership posts. The presence of foreign Arabs at the top had irritated potential Iraqi supporters in the past. Instead they are now in combat units, like most of the non-Arab foreign fighters, and in support roles such as media outreach and propaganda, recruitment and collection of donations. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi thus allowed Iraqis, mostly from the military and security establishments of the former Baathist regime, to fill in the top layers of ISIS and then of the Islamic State.\nThird, he divided the organization into the leadership \u2014 al-imara \u2014 or the executive, composed of Abu Bakr and his top advisers and second in command. It is the policymaking and governing body of the Islamic State. The rest of the organization is divided into first- and second-echelon structures.11 The first echelon consists of the Shura Council, the Military Council, and the Security and Intelligence Council. Abu Bakr directly supervises these councils. The Shura Council comes immediately below the leadership in importance; it consists of Abu Bakr himself and the \"cabinet,\" nine to 11 members who can theoretically dismiss the leader if he does not carry out his duties as ordained by his office.\nThe Military Council consists of a head, chosen by al-Baghdadi, and three members. It oversees the military commanders in the wilayats (provinces) that make up the various units of the Islamic State. Careful observation of data suggests that the military contingents are distinct and made up of Iraqis directly in IS battalions, associated local fighters from the former regime elements, and foreign fighters mainly from Arab countries (the Westerners, including those of Middle Eastern descent, are in IS units in Ar-Raqqa, Syria). An exception is the fearsome and combat-effective Chechen fighters who, allegedly, played a key role in routing the Iraqi army in Mosul.\nIntelligence and military personnel from Saddam Hussein's army and security services helped set up and run the Security and Intelligence Council (SIC). It has a wide range of duties: (a) providing protective security to Al-Baghdadi for his movements and engagements; (b) ensuring the maintenance of communications between al-Baghdadi and the \"provincial governors,\" who implement the caliph's decisions; (c) overseeing the execution of court rulings and the execution of penalties; (d) providing counterintelligence to prevent enemy infiltration of the state; (e) overseeing the delivery of mail and the security of communications among the various IS branches; and (f) maintaining special detachments for conducting assassinations, kidnappings and the collection of funds (headed by former members of the Baathist security services such as a former officer known as Abu Safwan al-Rifai.)\nOf the second-echelon structure the most important deals with the finances of ISIS and the Islamic State, especially pertaining to the funding of the war machine and the running costs of its state-building process. Our knowledge of the finances of ISIS/IS is still a work in progress; there are many unverified statements about the sources of its finances that continue to be issued uncritically by governments and the media. In brief, the Islamic State gets its money from the export of oil from fields under its control; it exports the oil to the Syrian government and the Iraqi Kurdish region and to Turkish groups. It taxes the population under its control and engages in the time-honored tactic of \"extortion\" from businesses.\nISI Grand Strategy\nThe resilient and flexible organization that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi built enabled him to formulate and implement a grand strategy in which goals are matched to operational plans for achieving them. This grand strategy is based on lessons learned from the failures of its parent organization, al-Qaeda, and from two key works: Idarat al-tawwahush: Akhtar marhala satamur biha al-umma (The Management of Savagery: The Most Dangerous Period Through Which the Umma Is Passing), written in 2009 by Abu Bakr Naji (aka Muhammad Abu Khalil al-Hakaymah), and Khouta istrategiyah li taziz al-mawqif al-siyasi lil dawlah al-islamiyah fi al-Irak (Strategic Plan to Improve the Political Position of the Islamic State in Iraq), written in 2010 by members of the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI).\nManagement of Savagery argues that carrying out a campaign of constant violent attacks in Muslim states will eventually exhaust these states' ability and will to enforce their authority and that, as the writ of the state withers away, chaos or savagery (tawahhush) will ensue. Of course, if the state is facing serious internal and external difficulties such as civil war, revolution or attack from outside, the jihadists can take advantage of such situations to weaken the illegitimate regime even more by attenuating its control over its territories. Jihadists can take advantage of this savagery to win popular support, or at least acquiescence, by imposing security, providing social services and implementing sharia. As these territories under control increase, they can become the nucleus of a new caliphate.\nISI believed that Iraq could be returned to and maintained in a state of savagery, despite the success of the Americans and their Iraqi allies in crushing the group in 2007-08. It is in this context that Strategic Plan was written. It called for taking measures to improve the political and military positions of ISI so that it would be ready to capture and control territory once the Americans left. It would then be in position to create the caliphate. Operationally, the Strategic Plan calls on ISI to coordinate its political and military efforts, execute an effective PSYOPS campaign against the Iraqi security forces, and implement a jihadist equivalent of the \"awakening\" campaign.12\nISI's military revival was on full display even before the events of 2014, and its attacks were characterized by their sheer ferocity, frequency and lethality. Abu Bakr was responsible for managing and directing large-scale operations. Between March and April 2011, ISI claimed 23 attacks south of Baghdad. On May 5, 2011, al-Baghdadi claimed responsibility for an attack in Hilla that killed 24 policemen and wounded 72 others. On August 15, 2011, a wave of ISI attacks beginning in Mosul resulted in 70 deaths. On December 22, 2011, a series of coordinated car bombings and IED attacks struck over a dozen neighborhoods across Baghdad, killing at least 63 people and wounding 180. The litany of death and destruction continued into 2012. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi announced a campaign of \"Breaking the Walls\" in July 2012 that made freeing its members from prison a top priority. The freed prisoners provided the organization with effective combat and administrative leaders. This was followed by the July 2013 campaign entitled \"Soldier's Harvest,\" which targeted members of the Iraqi security forces. By the end of 2012, ISI had developed a solid military cadre capable of waging a sustained terror campaign, conducting raids on government forces and launching well-planned attacks on government infrastructure.\nTHE SUNNI-SHIA RIFT\nThe growing dysfunction of the Iraqi state \u2014 reflected in, among other things, the growing chasm between the government of Nuri al-Maliki and the Sunni provinces of Salahuddin, al-Anbar and Diyala \u2014 enabled ISI to reenter the battle from which it had been ejected in 2008. From 2009 onwards, the western Sunni provinces witnessed large-scale, well-organized and well-managed demonstrations for an improved standard of living, including better job opportunities. Maliki instituted a policy of marginalizing the Sunnis politically. He went after Sunni politicians, seeking to eliminate them from the political process and from the military and security services. A feeling of marginalization drove many Sunnis back to the organization they had fought so fiercely during the \"awakening.\"\nAl-Qaeda Eclipsed?\nFor the past four years, the fortunes of al-Qaeda have been the source of considerable analysis. Some observers have argued that al-Qaeda is still effective and doing well as a terrorist organization because of its adaptability. Others have argued that, with the killing of Osama bin Laden in 2011, al-Qaeda has been in irretrievable decline. His successor, Ayman al-Zawahiri, has been unable to control the affiliates associated with the al-Qaeda brand name. Indeed, he has been accused of allowing too many groups to come in under the umbrella of the organization. This chaotic situation has caused problems for AQC.\nAQC, which is made up of the leadership, does not have any military capacity; its sustainability lies in the successes of its franchises and affiliates. However, these subgroups may not feel the need to necessarily toe the line, particularly if AQC has not contributed in any way to the local successes of these groups. AQC simply does not know the conditions on the ground in many of these places, and Al-Zawahiri cannot control the affiliates or franchises as if the organization were a hierarchical entity with him in direct command. Naturally, the subgroups will do what is in their interests. On the other hand, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), which operates in Yemen, has always had closer links with AQC because its leadership has interacted with and knows the top echelon of al-Qaeda. This cannot be said of the former affiliate in Iraq going back to Zarqawi; it has always been a black sheep of the jihadist family.\nFinally, there seems to be a clear generational gap between the older veterans of AQC and the more \"toxic\" younger generation being attracted to the likes of the Islamic State. Though it is difficult to gather social data accurately under present circumstances, ISIS and its successor (IS) have attracted a wide range of people from all economic strata and have done particularly well among a younger group ranging from the self-radicalized to the committed to those seeking adventure and for whom al-Qaeda no longer resonates. 9/11 happened a decade ago, while ISIS has gone from success to success.13\nThe second chapter of ISI's evolution begins in March 2011 with the outbreak of the Syrian civil war and the transformation of the group into the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), when its leadership decided to join the war against the Assad regime. This was a logical move for al-Baghdadi. According to his view, the secular Assad regime, dominated by the heterodox Alawite sect that most in the Islamic world do not view as Muslim, was trying to crush Muslims. Furthermore, Syria was a serious battle space in which ISI fighters could hone their skills and learn small-unit tactics fighting against a real army.\nThe Syrian battle space was politically complex. On one side stood the Syrian regime and its internal and external supporters; on the other, myriad opponents ranging from secular nationalists to liberal democrats to various Islamists, including jihadists. Al-Baghdadi sent into Syria a number of operatives \u2014 mostly Syrian veterans of the Iraqi insurgency against the United States \u2014 to prepare for the entry of ISI. A group of these veterans emerged as Jabhat al-Nusra in 2012 under the leadership of Abu Muhammad al-Jawlani (Jawlani in Arabic signifies that he hailed from the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights). Al-Nusra did well against the forces of the Syrian regime. It increased its popularity in war-torn Aleppo by establishing an efficient and well-disciplined structure for the distribution of food and medicine. This stood in marked contrast to the undisciplined and brutal behavior of the Free Syrian Army (FSA) opponents of the Assad regime. ISI's leadership noticed this. In April 2013, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi released an audio statement announcing that Al-Nusra Front (Jabhat al-Nusra) had been established, financed and supported by the Islamic State of Iraq. Al-Baghdadi declared that the two groups were merging as the \"Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham.\" The leader of Al-Nusra Front, Abu Muhammad al-Jawlani, issued a statement denying the merger and complaining that neither he nor anyone else in Al-Nusra's leadership had been consulted about it.\nThere are significant differences between Al-Nusra and ISIS. Al-Nusra was willing to cooperate with other jihadist groups to promote the goal of an Islamic state in Syria; ISIS was not so pragmatic. While Al-Nusra has a large contingent of foreign fighters, many Syrians see it as Syrian; by contrast, ISIS personnel are described as \"foreign\" occupiers. Al-Nusra actively fought for the overthrow of the Assad government; ISIS was more focused on establishing its own rule over territory and people and avoided fighting the Syrian Army. ISIS was far more ruthless in building an Islamic state; setting up a proto-state in the Syrian city of Raqqa in the northeast, where it built \"a holistic system of governance that includes religious, educational, judicial, security, humanitarian and infrastructure projects....\"14\nIn June 2013, Ayman al-Zawahiri, addressed both leaders in a letter, ruling against the merger and appointing an emissary to oversee relations between them and put an end to tensions. Zawahiri stipulated that al-Nusra would fight in Syria and ISI in Iraq. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi released an audio message rejecting Zawahiri's ruling and declaring that the merger would go ahead. In October 2013, Zawahiri ordered the disbanding of ISIS, putting Al-Nusra Front in charge of jihadist efforts in Syria. Baghdadi and others within ISIS contested Zawahiri's ruling on the basis of Islamic jurisprudence and practical and logical grounds. It would be a sin to dissolve the union. Furthermore, Islam did not recognize the \"artificial\" Sykes-Picot boundaries created in the aftermath of World War I that had divided the Islamic umma into states. Finally, it made no sense for the jihadists to fight disunited. In February 2014, after an eight-month power struggle, al-Qaeda disavowed relations with ISIS. In May 2014, Zawahiri ordered Al-Nusra Front to stop attacking ISIS, but there was no reconciliation.\nWhen ISIS returned to Iraq in June 2014 to seize large swaths of territory, the stage was already set for an insurgent version of \"shock and awe.\" ISIS concentrated its forces for a lightning attack on the Iraqis and the capture of territory and cities. ISIS activated the operational links with many former Baathist insurgents, many of whom were officers and intelligence personnel in the regime of Saddam Hussein. This included groups such as Rijal Jaysh al-Naqshbandiya and others that had ensconced themselves in Mosul and ran a shadow administration. ISIS information operations conducted by Shura Council leaders convinced several military and local leaders to resign and flee their posts, eventually giving rise to \"stab in the back\" stories of betrayal. Remaining military units and civilian leaders were isolated and targeted by suicide bombers or assassination squads or murdered en masse when captured, to send a message to remaining government forces. Videos of massacres were distributed widely, reaching the remaining Iraqi troops on the front lines. Many Sunnis, in particular, had no reason to fight for the Maliki government and deserted in large numbers. The statement of one Sunni security officer speaks volumes:\nThey [the Shia] don't even consider us Sunnis to be human beings. Only Shiites got promoted to become officers, and it was only the Shiites who landed government contracts. We were second-class citizens. Maliki asked Assad to bomb us Iraqis because he didn't have any aircraft of his own [Syrian Air Force fighters bombed ISIS positions in Iraq]. What kind of a leader is that?15\nUpon seizing a city, ISIS personnel made straight for police and municipal buildings and core infrastructure such as water and electricity, enabling them to completely control access to vital needs.\nThe Iraqi security forces collapsed. Four army divisions simply disappeared and will not be easily rebuilt. The Second Division was routed from Mosul, Iraq's second-largest city, on June 9, and its four brigades dissolved. The First Division lost two brigades in Anbar earlier in the year, then two more during the ISIS advance in June, with one brigade totally destroyed in Diyala just northeast of Baghdad. The same is true of Iraq's Third Division. The division's Sixth and Ninth Brigades fled the Islamic State's advance in the north, and the Eleventh largely vanished. The Fourth Division also was routed. Half its personnel vanished; most deserted, while hundreds may have been massacred. Iraqi troops on the front line were short of food, water and ammunition. They survived because the ulema and charities in Samarra provided food for them. ISIS captured an enormous amount of equipment, including 1,500 armored Humvees and large numbers of mortars and heavy artillery pieces, among them 52 GPS-guided 155mm M198 howitzers.16\nThe size of the June 2014 debacle became clear shortly thereafter. American advisers turning up to assess the situation and help rebuild the Iraqi security forces found an incompetent military deeply infiltrated by Sunni militants and Shia militiamen, led by an unprofessional officer corps incapable of meeting the logistics needs of its soldiers. The initial U.S. assessment, which arrived at the Pentagon on July 14, was grim. The advisers concluded that Iraqi forces would be unable to launch the kinds of offensive operations required to roll back ISIS.\nThe successes of ISIS on the ground in Syria and Iraq led it to view the situation as opportune for the establishment of an Islamic state. On June 29, 2014, ISIS began to refer to itself as the Islamic State, declaring its occupied territory a new caliphate and naming Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as its ruler (caliph). Sheikh Abu Muhammad al-Adnani al-Shami, spokesperson for ISIS, described the establishment of the caliphate as \"a dream that lives in the depths of every Muslim believer\" and \"the neglected obligation of the era.\" He said that the group's ruling Shura Council had decided to establish the caliphate formally and that Muslims around the world should now pledge their allegiance to the new caliph.\nThe declaration of the caliphate resounded throughout the region and the Islamic world. On the ground, there was an increase in surrenders by rebel brigades in Syria's Deir ez-Zour province. Fearful of ISIS power in the wake of its successes, a number of local leaders and tribal elders in Syria and Iraq sought to avoid confrontation and agreed to peaceful surrenders of their militias and occupations of their towns and villages. These surrenders and accretions of territory provided the Islamic State with territorial contiguity between the lands it seized in Syria and in Iraq, allowing it to claim that it had erased the old colonial boundaries established by the Western powers after World War I.\nSecond, the declaration of the caliphate created a stir in Islamist circles, not least within AQC, which was taken aback by being upstaged. The event divided jihadist thinkers and religious personalities as well as jihadist movements. AQC and its supporters \u2014 who tended to be older and veterans of past jihads \u2014 argued that Baghdadi was an upstart who had no right to declare a caliphate; the time was inopportune and the manner inappropriate. Al-Baghdadi and his supporters \u2014 frustrated by al-Qaeda's seeming lack of vigor and success in recent years \u2014 declared that the military successes of ISIS provided both the legitimacy and opportunity to declare a caliphate.\nThe resurgence of ISIS and its subsequent transformation into the Islamic State has come as a shock to the Iraqi government, the region and the international community. The key question is whether the group can reinforce its hold on the area it controls, or whether it will face factional challenges or effective international push-back. The challenges are both internal and external.\nImploding from Within\nIS may sabotage itself without any help from the outside. It may overreach, even though its leaders have cautioned its commanders on the ground to be prudent as they extended control over territory and peoples. The first Islamic state experiment revealed that the jihadists were not very effective at establishing and maintaining local alliances. It succumbed to hubris before it could consolidate control and began acting as if it were the dominant group, opening the door to an anti-jihadist uprising among Sunni insurgents that was aided by the Americans.\nThe Islamic State of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has pursued two pathways to the construction of the state, depending on circumstances and local conditions. It used violence against groups in Syria and moved swiftly to control territory and population. In northern Iraq, especially around Mosul, it sought to build and sustain alliances with local armed groups and slowly inserted itself within the population. This required compromise and prudence in dealing with the heavily armed and well-embedded former Sunni insurgents, including Baathist and Islamist groups that had established shadow financial networks. The Maliki government's unwillingness to meet Sunni demands for greater political inclusion and more resources made ISIS's job of \"seducing\" the Sunni fighters an easy task. Maliki's replacement, Haider al-Abadi, is seen as equally anti-Sunni. Furthermore, so many Sunni groups have gone so far to the other side that neither sees any hope of reconciliation. The longer the Islamic State can take advantage of this lack of Sunni options, the more likely it is to transform itself into a socially embedded political, economic and military presence in the Sunni areas of Iraq. Key Sunni leaders of the Sahwa movement who refused to see the merits of allying with ISIS have either been assassinated or forced to \"repent\" in order to join the organization.17\nThe ideology of IS and its horrific modus operandi may engender resistance; conflict with its local partners is the most likely pathway to collapse in both Syria and Iraq. Moreover, strife with its allies over resources and power sharing may emerge. Dependence on local Sunni networks made IS vulnerable to abandonment by the groups that formed the Anbar Awakening. Resistance has emerged in a number of areas in Syria. Groups affiliated with the main Syrian opposition group, the FSA, issued statements rejecting IS and declaring their commitment to continue the struggle against it. In Iraq, there are already strains between some of the former Baathist and nationalist elements, who see IS and its leaders as \"useful idiots\" who can be used to exact revenge and overturn the Shia-dominated system in Baghdad. However, there is every indication that IS and its command see the local allies as the useful idiots to be exploited. Only time will tell whether IS will succeed in fully incorporating the \"allies.\"\nDestroying IS from the Outside\nThe international community has deferred to the United States in the effort to thwart the IS, but President Obama's six-point plan for the defeat of the Islamic State promises more than it can likely deliver. On September 10, 2014, Obama laid out his strategy for significant expansion of the aerial bombing campaign in Iraq. Since mid-August, airpower has blunted the forward momentum of the lightning IS advance. It has even allowed the dispirited Iraqi army and the vastly overrated Kurdish peshmerga to push IS back from some of the territories it had conquered.\nThere are problems, however, with overreliance on airpower. The militants have learned to disperse, to tunnel, to use camouflage and to go to ground in the cities. Airpower can degrade but it cannot uproot an entire system of control over territory, people and infrastructure. IS is capable of regressing back to pure terrorism, a tactic in which it is thoroughly adept.\nSecond, the strategy calls for the training and equipping of the Iraqi army and the peshmerga. The United States looks set to throw more good money after bad, as indicated by the failures in summer 2014 of the Iraqi army \u2014 on which the United States had already spent $24 billion. Two IS battalions with a total of 800-1,200 men took Mosul in June from two Iraqi divisions with a combined strength of 30,000 men. The army is a victim of the failures of Iraq's body politic: sectarian tensions; promotion on the basis of ethnosectarian kinship ties rather than professionalism; corruption on a massive scale; and poor command, control and communications systems \u2014 due to the politician's mistrust of the officer corps. The best military equipment in the world will not make a difference if societal problems are not addressed.\nThe peshmerga are better disciplined than the Iraqi army, though organizationally weak. They have relied too much on their historical memory of being vaunted guerrilla fighters against various Iraqi regimes. The word \"peshmerga\" (those who face death) was evocative of their courage and tactical prowess. But they were defeated by IS in June as well. They are not a flexible or well-trained force able to deal with the wide range of military contingencies they recently faced, from guerrilla tactics to mobile hybrid warfare. The peshmerga are split between the two Kurdish political parties that dominate the region; there is no unified command and control. The peshmerga are more likely than the Iraqi army to benefit quickly from U.S. largesse and training. However, political and strategic considerations dictate that the United States cannot focus on making the Kurds combat-capable ahead of the central government in Baghdad.\nThird, the strategy calls for bombing Syria, where the problems associated with bombing Iraq also apply. They may be worse; IS has embedded itself more deeply in eastern Syria. Moreover, it is unclear whether the proposed bombing campaign in Syria is about weakening IS or the Assad regime. Many in the United States hope for the destruction of the regime, but this would be a deviation of focus.\nFourth, the strategy calls for training and arming the Syrian rebels. Which ones? The United States often uses the word moderates with respect to the Middle East. However, the Syrian rebels are not moderate \u2014 three years of savage civil war have seen to that \u2014 and most are incapable of dealing with IS.\nFifth, the strategy called for bringing a coalition of European and regional allies on board in the fight. What will be the division of labor? It would seem that each country needs to be asked what it can contribute to the struggle. The most capable U.S. allies \u2014 Britain, France and Australia \u2014 will be at the \"pointy end of the spear\" alongside the United States.\nSixth, the United States says it will not put troops on the ground or see a modus vivendi with the Syrian and Iranian regimes. Western air power and a reliance on weak local ground forces will, however, not achieve even degradation of the IS system of control. What is likely required is the presence of enough Western ground forces to plant a small footprint in both Iraq and Syria. The United States and its Western allies have the most capable special operations forces in the world. They devastated al-Qaeda. The decapitation of IS leadership and personnel, and those allied with it, can be done most effectively by ground forces. They would enable the United States and its allies to work to decouple the Sunni tribes and former insurgents from IS. This would require the United States to put to use its recent experience of working with the Sunni community in their joint fight against the jihadists between 2006 and 2009. The Islamic State was established as a result of ISIS military successes in Syria in early 2014, when it kicked the other jihadist groups out of Raqqa, and in Iraq in summer 2014, when it conquered Mosul and other areas. Ground forces would be able to reduce the territories under IS control and thus work to delegitimize it.\nOf course, IS cannot be defeated purely by military means. Political and diplomatic engagement with the Kurds and the central government in Iraq will be necessary. Israel and the Kurds are maneuvering to grant an independent \"Kurdistan\" as much Iraqi territory as possible. While the Kurds should be rewarded for their cooperation in defeating IS, this will cause problems if it comes at the territorial expense of what remains of Iraq. It will reinforce Sunni Arab grievances; they stand to lose the most in the territorial carve-up in the north. Coaxing Baghdad to offer political positions and economic equity in return for further military aid and training \u2014 as well as to ensure restraint by the Kurds \u2014 can only be done by the United States.\nThere is considerable pressure on Washington to ignore or bypass Syria and Iran. Israel and Saudi Arabia certainly want to keep these so-called \"rogue states\" weak. A parade of self-styled U.S. experts on the region has been promoting the idea that the solution to this mess lies in the overthrow of the Assad regime. It is strategically myopic, recalling the idea that the best way to deal with al-Qaeda was to overthrow Saddam Hussein, when the focus should have been on Afghanistan. Engaging Iran does not mean appeasement. It means warning Tehran not to engage in machinations that are at variance with U.S. efforts to rebuild the Iraqi body politic and military along national rather than sectarian lines.\nSyria cannot offer much help against IS; it is overstretched and untrustworthy. However, a policy of supporting the opposition is fraught with danger. The \"moderate\" opposition will turn on Assad and ignore IS; they have, in effect, been doing so. The non-IS jihadists, many affiliated with al-Qaeda, will watch as their two opponents fight each other and the United States deals with IS. These non-IS jihadists should not emerge as the winners in this melee. This does, of course, create a problem; the U.S. targeting of Jabhat al-Nusra in late September 2014 led that organization to issue threats against the West and begin working with IS forces in Syria.\nISIS did not appear out of the blue. Much of its revival has been due to events such as the Syrian civil war, but also to the fecklessness and monumental failures of the Iraqi government. Its successes and continued existence were perpetuated by the inability of regional governments and the United States to recognize it as a dire threat until summer 2014. The chances for crushing the insurgent terrorist menace are greatest when both the endogenous and exogenous challenges to the Islamic State are maximized simultaneously. This will require a more sophisticated approach than that currently being implemented by the United States and its allies.\n* The group will be known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) until its transformation into the Islamic State (IS) in June 2014. The predecessors of ISIS will be known by their own names at the time of existence. For more details on the nomenclature debate, see Zack Beauchamp, \u201cISIS, Islamic State or ISIL?

If you know anything about car sales, you'll know that it says something when one goes to car sales for the more relaxed hours.\nWhile this transition has worked out very well for me, it is not always better on the other side of the fence. I work at one dealership and have a limited idea of what other dealerships are like. Some things about this dealership are excellent and others could use improvement. Like every working person in the history of work, I have thought about if I should consider looking at other employment.\nI sell high end vehicles, and am looking for a less expensive car for my fiancee, so I took occasion to visit the local Honda dealership. One funny thing about the car business is that if you visit a dealership and they find out that you sell cars... or used to sell cars... or ever watched a movie containing a car salesman, they may well offer you a job, as they did here. In the course of our conversation, I found out that they sell almost the exact same number of units as us, but probably for less commission per car. I also found out that they have a daily sales meeting at 8:30 AM and that anyone who is not on time to this meeting cannot take customers for the day. The place I currently work suddenly looks a lot more appealing.\nSometimes the grass really is greener on the other side, such as when I came to work here, but often, the green is just an illusion.",

Believing in the power of hard work I started building small tech projects since I was 14. After graduating in Management Engineering at Politecnico di Milano and studying Technology Entrepreneurship at ETH Z\u00fcrich I started a self-designed one-year Master on Startups Ecosystems that took me directly to work with entrepreneurs and investors in Silicon Valley.\nIn 2013, I started Ympact, a non-profit organization that reports about startups ecosystems by producing free documentaries available on YouTube. So far we covered 6 major European cities and Silicon Valley.\nSince then I work for entrepreneurs, supporting their day to day activities and helping them to bring their business off the ground. One of the latest startups I've been supporting is the Italian based bartender-robot Makr Shakr presented at Google I/O, San Francisco. I had the pleasure to launch the robot's mobile version at Expo Milano 2015, manage clients relationships, negotiate and close the first sales contracts.\nI'm now working at the European Institute of Innovation and Technology, studying cutting-edge technologies (i.e. Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence) and evaluating their impact on fast-growing markets to identify new business models and business opportunities while helping entrepreneurs to expand their business internationally with scalable sales and operations.\nYou can find me on Linkedin and Twitter, or just send me an email.\nGet started on Blockchain with a free beginner's guide\n15 minutes read time\n5+ years working with entrepreneurs, corporate executives and academia.\nHelping first-time entrepreneurs getting from zero to one.

        "raw_content": "Billy Frank remembers walking across the ball field in his freshman year in high school in Westwood, CA - seeing several of his friends playing for the high school baseball team. Like many young kids from broken homes, Billy was on his way to his after-school job. He didn\u2019t have the opportunity to play for the school team. He had to make ends meet, his father advised him. So, he was only able to play ball for Recreation & Parks teams, while \u201cmaking ends meet\u201d.\nWhile playing ball and not missing a single season to date since he was five years old, Billy was, eventually and surprisingly, invited to play ball for the World USA Maccabiah fast pitch softball team. The Maccabiah Games, organized by the Maccabi World Union, is declared a \u201cRegional Sport Event\u201d by the International Olympic Committee in 1961. The Maccabiah Games is often referred to as the \u201cJewish Olympics\u201d.\nMany years later, Billy started his own company in the entertainment industry, Make it Happen Productions (MIHP).\nBilly realized that playing highly competitive sports and running a business, had many similarities; it\u2019s a long and rigorous road, it\u2019s highly competitive and it\u2019s all treated like an important game. \u201cSports changed my life as a young kid and as an adult. It did the same for many people I know.\u201d, Billy states in an online interview, prior to participating in the Maccabiah Games and being named starting Left Fielder in the\n2013 and 2017 Games in Israel. He feels blessed that he has been playing ball since an early age and still proudly owns MIHP since the late 90\u2019s.\nToday, Billy has now competed in fast pitch softball, aka Windmill Softball, for several years., has won championships in many highly competitive tournaments around the world, and MIHP is a sought after creative service company, seen a great deal of success and proudly cares about every endeavor he and his team encounter.\nFun fact; Billy started MIHP at 29. He had his only child at 39. And he won a Gold medal at 49.",

        "raw_content": "Common Name: common mullein\nEasily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soil in full sun. Tolerates some light shade. Prefers dry, stony soils. Tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, including poor soils, but must have good drainage. Dislikes shade and wet soils. Plants have fibrous roots with a deep taproot. Plants remain in the landscape by self-seeding. An individual plant can produce as many as 180,000 seeds in its second year. Basal leaves are evergreen in warm winter climates, but sometimes retain significant green color under snow cover in colder winters.\nVerbascum thapsus, commonly called common mullein, is a wooly biennial herb that produces (a) a basal rosette of stalked, thick, soft, densely-hairy, flannel-textured, pale gray-green leaves (to 6-15\u201d long) leaves in the first year, (b) an erect, solitary, unbranched, densely hairy flowering stem rising from the center of the rosette to 7\u2019 tall in the second year, each stem being topped in summer by a 20-inch long cylindrical inflorescence of densely-packed, 5-lobed, saucer-shaped, sulphur-yellow flowers (each to 1\u201d across); flowering stems appear winged because the smaller fuzzy alternate oval stem leaves have tapered and prolonged bases which extend down the surface of the stem, (c) a long June-September bloom of flowers, a few at a time, with the best bloom usually appearing in July, (d) rounded downy seed capsules (1/4\u201d diameter) which mature in fall followed by death of the plant as the seed ripens and the bicentennial life cycle is completed.\nThis weedy plant is native to Eurasia. It was first brought to the U. S. in early colonial times primarily because of its extensive history as an herbal remedy for a large number of medicinal impairments. It has now spread and naturalized in all 50 states and across Southern Canada. It is often found in disturbed areas including roadsides, old fields, pastures, railroad right-of-ways, vacant lots and waste places. It is listed as a noxious weed in the states of Colorado and Hawaii.\nTea made from the flowers reportedly has a soothing, sedative effect.\nLeaves and flowers have been used medicinally for treatment of a wide variety of impairments including lung diseases, sinus problems, coughs, colds, sore throat, asthma, emphysema, colic, diarrhea, migraines, earaches and inflammation reduction. The leaves contain rotenone (insecticide) and coumarin (prevents blood clotting).\nGenus name may come from the Latin word barbascum which means bearded plant.\nSpecific epithet honors the ancient village of Thapsus (now in ruins) located near Carthage in modern day Tunisia.\nCommon name of mullein comes from the Latin word mollis which means soft in reference to the flannel-textured leaves.\nNo serious insect or disease problems. Susceptible to spider mites in hot conditions. Watch for weevils and slugs. Plants grown in rich, fertile soils grow taller and may need staking or other support. Wet, poorly drained soils are usually fatal.\nBorders and cottage gardens. Herb gardens. Good vertical accent. Grows well in poor soils and will grow well on dry, rocky slopes or scree.",

ED may signal a lack of blood flow, which indicates trouble in other parts of the body too, such as the heart and the brain.'If you develop ED, it is as likely to predict a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years as a smoking or family history of heart disease.'Evan Appelbaum, MD, a cardiologist at Men's Health Boston, a Harvard-affiliated multi-specialty practice and the first Men's Health Center in the United States, agrees. 'ED is another major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and should prompt further evaluation even without other risk factors.'\n\u00a9 Studio Peace/Shutterstock",

        "raw_content": "\"Le Grazie Veneziane - Music from the Ospedali\"\nMaria Grazia Schiavo, Emanuela Galli, soprano; Jose Maria Lo Monaco, contralto\nVocal Concert Dresden, Dresdner Instrumental-Concert\nrec: January 15 - 18, 2008, Dresden, Lukaskirche\nBaldassare GALUPPI (1706-1785): Dixit Dominus; Johann Adolf HASSE (1699-1783): Laudate pueri; Nicola Antonio PORPORA (1686-1768): De profundis\nThere seems to be an increasing interest in the sacred music written for the women and girls of the various Ospedali in Venice in the 18th century. One of the characteristics of this repertoire is that the tutti parts are set for women's voices only. Vivaldi, of course, also performed his sacred music in the Ospedale della Piet\u00e0 with women's voices, but he made sure they could also be performed by more conventional forces of sopranos, altos, tenors and basses. Johann Adolf Hasse was another one, who adapted his psalm setting Laudate pueri, originally written for the Ospedale della Piet\u00e0, for the different circumstances in Dresden.\nSince the 14th century a number of large and small Ospedali were offering a home to the sick, the poor and to orphans. In the early 18th century there were four large Ospedali for girls and women, where they found not only a home but also a good education, in particular in music. During the century these developed into famous conservatories, and they always were able to attract first-class composers to act as maestro. The most famous of them was Antonio Vivaldi, but the three composers who are represented on this disc also were at some time during their career connected to one or some of the Ospedali.\nNicola Antonio Porpora, born in Naples, led an adventurous life which brought him to Dresden, Vienna, London and Venice. It was after his return from Vienna in 1725, where he didn't enjoy much success, that he took up the post of maestro at the Ospedale degl'Incurabili. He left for London in 1733, where he was Handel's main rival in the field of opera, but returned in 1736 to Venice. His old job had been given to Johann Adolf Hasse, but as he was on an extended leave in Dresden Porpora could return to his former position. In 1738 he returned to his native Naples to perform operas. It didn't bring him as much success as he would have hoped for, and in 1741 he went back to Venice and took up the post of maestro di coro of the Ospedale della Piet\u00e0. In 1744 he was appointed at the Ospedale dei Derelitti. It is here that he wrote a number of motets, one of which is performed on this disc. In his motets Porpora treats the text as if it was an opera libretto, with virtuosic arias for the soloists, full of coloraturas. The tutti parts are hardly less demanding and also contain passages with coloraturas. Even in a text like De profundis there is hardly any restraint, and that is something one has get to used to.\nIt is not quite clear when exactly Hasse was connected to the Ospedali in Venice. It is assumed he wrote his first work for the Ospedale degli'Incurabili during his visit to Venice in 1727 or 1728, and was also appointed maestro at the institution, but there is no certainty about that. But what is certain is that Hasse was in Venice between 1734 and 1737, and on the libretto of an opera of 1736 he is called maestro di cappella of the Ospedale degl'Incurabili. It is during these years that his psalm setting Laudate pueri has been composed. Here Hasse doesn't belie his credentials as one of the great opera composers of his time, but in comparison with Porpora he is more restrained and there is a stronger connection between text and music (for instance the contrast between \"coelo\" and \"terra\"). And in particular the tutti parts are less operatic than in Porpora's psalm setting. It is perhaps his German education which is shining out here.\nBaldassare Galuppi, who was mainly active as a composer of operas and only towards the end of his life devoted himself to sacred music, was appointed as maestro at the Ospedale dei Mendicanti in 1740, a post he held until 1751, when he resigned because of his many other duties. In 1762 he was appointed maestro di coro of St Mark's and at the Ospedale degl'Incurabili. His setting of Dixit Dominus dates from 1774 and was written for the Ospedale. Whereas the two other pieces on this disc are scored for strings and bc only, Galuppi adds two horns, which are used quite effectively for the expression of the text, in particular in the verse 'Dominus a dextris tuis': \"The Lord at thy right hand shall destroy kings in the day of his wrath\". About Galuppi's sacred works Charles Burney wrote that \"though some of the airs are in the opera stile, yet, upon occasion, he shows himself to be a very able writer in the true church stile, which is grave, with good harmony, good modulation, and fugues well worked\". The second verse, 'Tecum principium', is a good example of an expressive 'grave' and the piece ends with a fugue on the closing part of the doxology (\"et in saeculum saeculorum\").\nThe compositions by Hasse and Galuppi have been recorded here for the first time. Porpora's De profundis has also been recorded by Jean-Marc Andrieu, directing his ensemble Les Passions and the Choeur \u00c9clats. In comparison this performance is more restrained; the operatic character comes more to the fore in Andrieu's recording. On the other hand, the Dresdner Instrumental-Concert is considerably larger than Les Passions (17 strings to 5), and that is probably more in line with what was common in the Ospedali.\nThe orchestra plays very well, but could sometimes have been a bit bolder and more theatrical. The choir gives fine performances and deals admirably with the demanding tutti parts in Porpora's psalm setting. The soloists are doing a great job; they all have pleasant voices and show their impressive skills in the often virtuosic arias. I have to say, though, that a bit less vibrato hadn't been amiss, in particular from the sopranos.\nOverall this is an interesting and captivating recording of repertoire which is still largely unexplored. The pieces on this disc show that there is every reason to regret this, and hopefully these performers and others will do something about it.",

        "raw_content": "April 2, 2018 My Local Health Guide Health Talk, Tips 0\nWhen someone wants to feel healthy, it was pretty much the norm to think that exercise should be a part of the daily routine. What was stopping most people was either time or money. It is no secret that gyms are one of the best places to really regain control of your health. The trouble is that gym memberships can be quite costly and it will take time to get to it and back from it.\nAs not everyone has the funds or the spare time to go to the gym, a lot of people tend to skip out on physical activity altogether. For those that really wanted to get healthy through regular exercise, the idea of a home gym became really appealing. However, it was commonly believed that to have a truly effective home gym, certain equipment was required.\nEquipment like:\nThese were thought to be what was necessary to create a good home gym. We wanted to take some time to discuss the fact that this is not correct in the very least. In fact, it is a wholly outdated look and approach to a home gym and it is a belief that you should toss out as soon as you can.\nThe home gym shouldn\u2019t have to look like a professional gym. You\u2019re not training for the Olympics; you\u2019re simply trying to take control of your health routine. A home gym should feel like a part of your home and therefore, should be cozy and functional. The floorings or mats should be chosen well to ensure that you don\u2019t slip while doing your exercise routine.\nWhile weights are still welcome, they shouldn\u2019t be something that would be high on your priority list. They can be nice to have but they aren\u2019t wholly necessary.\nGone are the days where you needed clunky mechanisms to really bust out a workout. Thankfully, the days of having to jump around and do weird cardio is also gone as well. Instead, there are more exercise options that do not really require the use of equipment. Exercises like Yoga and Pilates are fairly self-contained.\nThey do not require a significant amount of space and mostly what you will need is a mat to help you keep your balance as you do different poses to work on your health. When you\u2019re smart about the exercise that you choose, you get to control what should be in your home gym.\nChoosing to be healthy and working out is no longer restricted to the confines of a gym or the confines of a fully equipped home gym. Instead, there are now better and smarter ways to be more active within the confines of your home without having to break the bank. We hope that you take this to heart whenever you think that you have to spend a lot in order to be active or healthy.\nWith this in mind, why do you think that home gyms no longer require actual equipment?",

        "raw_content": "A Few Moments with MUDFUCK\nConcert Review: Graveyard and Bombus at Fubar in St. Louis, MO on 29-Apr-2014\nIt was the invasion of The Swedes on April 29th, 2014 and we liked it!\nGraveyard and Bombus appeared at Fubar, in St. Louis for a night of metal infusion, with more influences than can be counted.\nGraveyard, formed in Gothenberg, Sweden in 2006, played to a standing-room-only crowd, packed tightly from the front of the stage to the back bar. From their opening note, everyone in the building was transfixed by the band\u2019s stunning melodies.\nGraveyard\u2019s sound is an amalgamation of 70\u2019s fuzz and growling blues, built on a solid classic rock backbone. You can hear influences such as Black Sabbath (with a little more bounce), or something like Led Zeppelin meets the Rolling Stones.> Graveyard\u2019s stunning performance was the icing on the cake\u2026 they had some big shoes to fill after Bombus\u2019 set.\nBombus, another band from Sweden, opened the show. They are another Gothenberg-based band, with similar influences to Graveyard\u2019s. Along with the classic rock infusion, you can hear other influences in their music such as Mot\u00c3\u00b6rhead, The Melvins, and Poison Idea, which give an extra punch to their sound.\nOriginally a two-man collaboration between Feffe and Matte, the band gained attention and gig offers when it grew to a quartet after the addition of Ulf and Peter. Ulf ultimately left performing with the band, although he remains a \u2018fifth member\u2019 and takes care of equipment along with other duties. He was replaced by Jonas.\nIt seemed not everyone at Fubar was as familiar with Bombus as they were with Graveyard, but by their second song, the band had the rapt attention of everyone in the club. The few stragglers making a late entrance created quite the mob scene when they stopped in their tracks to take it all in.\nOf course, a show like this could only happen at a venue like Fubar. It is the one club in St. Louis that is consistently booking some of the best of, not only up and coming artists, but established acts as well. This is the club that people will talk about when they\u2019re telling stories about seeing that one superstar band, once upon a time, in an incredibly intimate setting before they hit the big time.\nBoth bands were gracious enough to spend a good amount of time after the show to meet and interact with the fans, and the owners and management of Fubar were kind enough to open up the second half of the club to make this possible.\nGraveyard online:\nnuclearblast.de > graveyard\nfacebook.com/graveyardofficial\ntwitter.com/graveyard\nyoutube.com/graveyardsongs\nbombusmusic.com\nfacebook.com/bombusmusic\nmyspace.com/bombusmusic\nBombusFubarGraveyardMissouriSt Louis\nConcert Imagery: The Wildhearts, Von Hertzen Brothers, Hey!

        "raw_content": "Bridesmaids (seen at The O2 on 2-Jul-11)\nI haven't been to the cinema in months although each time I go, I tell myself that I should do it more often - not least because the cinema is officially the only place I can watch a full-length feature film without simultaneously playing on my laptop. I also only pulled my iPhone out once to make a note. I think that's totally excusable though, good thoughts have to be noted before you lose them for when you lose a thought there's no simple way of retrieving it.\nHumour is the best format within which to relay a serious message and I have to say that Bridesmaids did have several of those. The most important message I got was, 'no matter how many times life comes to bite you in the ass, get up, move on'. The groom's sister was serious comedy, the whole way through. The addition of two Brits, one of which was Matt Lucas (of Little Britain) was icing on the cake. My favourite line from Matt Lucas was \"There's a needing it today kind of situation\" when he was chasing his flat mate for rent, said in an oh-so British cum American fashion.\nI didn't realize that Maya Riperton was mixed race so I was a little confused by the fact that her father in the film was black, but a little research this morning sorted that issue out. Her mother was the African-American Minnie Riperton, famous for the song, \"Lovin' You\". She unfortunately died from breast cancer in 1979 when Maya was only seven years old.\nIf Bridesmaids was a book, I wouldn't read it but as a film it is most definitely worth a watch for both guys and girls. I laughed A LOT and came out feeling relaxed and renewed.",

        "title": "Byron J. Richards -- FDA Celebrates Hundred Years of Pretense",
        "raw_content": "F.D.A. CELEBRATES HUNDRED YEARS OF PRETENSE\nBy Byron J. Richards, CCN\nToday marks the one-hundred-year birthday of the FDA. To celebrate, the FDA plans a gala event at the Harvey W. Wiley federal building. The FDA is touting Dr. Wiley as the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdFather of the Pure Food and Drugs Act,\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd inviting his decedents to attend their event. The FDA is quite proud of the heritage Dr. Wiley has bestowed upon them.\nApparently, the FDA would like to forget what Dr. Wiley actually believed. He was an adamant supporter of a true organic food supply for the entire American public. It was the food industry that did not want this legislation, as they were more interested in foods adulterated with colorings and preservatives, a lower quality of food that posed health risks. Dr. Wiley believed that preservatives in food posed a serious health problem. He thought the regular intake of preservatives over the course of a lifetime was certain to be toxic and contribute to ill health. As he stated in his 1905 Congressional testimony:\n\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdI think that the use of preservatives in food may be and often is overdone and that great harm may come from their excessive use\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd.I say, as a plain business proposition, that the men who put preservatives in food had better stop for their own good and for the good of their business; and they will.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\nIn the ensuing years Dr. Wiley worked to stand by his words. He sought to implement the food law to create his vision of a truly healthy food supply for America. He was undermined every step of the way, forced out of his job seven years later by politicians and food industry shenanigans. In 1929, at the age of 85, he decided to tell his story of how he was prevented by the food industry, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdscience for hire,\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and various government officials from creating a wholesome food supply for America.\nHe saw that the food law had been hijacked by the forces it was supposed to regulate, for the greed and benefit of a few at the cost of health for Americans. His book: The History of a Crime Against the Food Law. Subtitle: The amazing story of the national food and drugs law intended to protect the health of the people perverted to protect the adulteration of food and drugs.\nAfter detailing four hundred pages of government and industry corruption, Dr. Wiley\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds book concludes as follows:\n\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdIf the Bureau of Chemistry had been permitted to enforce the law as it was written and as it tried to do, what would have been the condition now? No food product in our country would have any trace of benzoic acid, sulphurous acid or sulphites, or any alum or saccharin, save for medicinal purposes. No soft drink would contain any caffeine, or theobromine. No bleached flour would enter interstate commerce. Our foods and drugs would be wholly without any form of adulteration and misbranding.\nThe health of our people would be vastly improved and their life greatly extended. The manufacturers of our food supply, and especially the millers, would devote their energies to improving the public health and promoting happiness in every home by the production of whole ground, unbolted cereal flours and meals. The resistance of our people to infectious diseases would be greatly increased by a vastly improved and more wholesome diet.\nOur example would be followed by the civilized world and thus bring to the whole universe the benefits which our own people had received. We would have been spared the ignominy and disgrace of great scientific men bending their efforts to defeat the purpose of one of the greatest laws ever enacted for the protection of the public welfare. Eminent officials of our Government would have escaped the indignation of outraged public opinion because they permitted and encouraged these frauds on the public. The cause of a wholesome diet would not have been put back for fifty or a hundred years. And last but least, this History of a Crime would never have been written.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\nIn hindsight, the cause of a wholesome diet has indeed been put back a hundred years. The FDA protects and allows numerous adulterations of the food supply, including: preservatives, chemicals like MSG, chemical-derived food coloring, highly refined grains, synthetic sweeteners, junk food, genetically modified food that expresses toxins in every cell, and synthetic bovine growth hormone.\nThe FDA tolerates animals and chickens raised under horrendous conditions of abuse and poor health, requiring irradiation to kill germs because the animals are so pathetically ill and easily infected. The FDA is now considering allowing cloned animals into the food supply. The FDA refuses to label food in a way that a consumer can judge important issues. For example, no person would eat genetically modified food if they had a choice.\nEvery step of the way the FDA protects the chemical companies, multi-national food companies, and large agri-business companies that produce this trash the American public is supposed to eat. The FDA stands woefully lacking compared to the integrity of Harvey W. Wiley, M.D.\nIn my new book, Fight for Your Health, it is easy to understand the reason for the subtitle, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdExposing the FDA\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds Betrayal of America.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd The food quality issue is one of many issues. Americans are sick and tired of government defending the profits of industry at the expense of human health and well being. It is high time we set a course to correct the problems of one hundred years of fraudulent propaganda and bullying enforcement that serves only the interests of the wealthy and powerful elite.\n\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd 2006 Byron J. Richards - All Rights Reserved\nByron J. Richards, Founder/Director of Wellness Resources, is a Board-Certified Clinical Nutritionist and nationally-renowned health expert, radio personality, educator, and author.\nRichards encourages individuals to take charge of their health, stand up for their health rights, and not blindly succumb to propaganda from the vested-interests who profit from keeping Americans sick. \" Author of Mastering Leptin and Fight for Your Health.

        "title": "Review: Lamy Scala BlueBlack Special Edition \u2014 nib & ink",
        "raw_content": "I'm a straight-up sucker for blue-black anything. Pens and inks, especially. Blue is my favorite color, but sometimes it can be a little... flashy. Blue-black is like the understated, slightly more refined cousin. And I like it. So when Lisa Vanness of Vanness Pen Company started posting photos of her Special Edition Blue-Black Lamy Scala, I made a comment on more than one of them that I had to have one. She reached out to me and asked if I wanted to borrow hers that she personally bought from her store. I'm sure you can guess my response. Uh... DUH! Gimme.\nShe shipped it out promptly and I got to hang on to it for a few weeks and put it through its paces. And I did just that. I used it as a daily writer for a few days, made sure to give it a good run-through and then, sadly, packed it back up and sent it back to Lisa.\nSo the Scala is sort of a beefed-up, fancier Studio. The body is metal and similar in shape to the Studio and it has a similar metal grip. But the cap is a bit chunkier and feels really weighty and nice. When my wife picked up the pen for the first time she said, \"It's heavier than it looks.\" My sentiments exactly. The pen has a nice weight and I'll admit that I'm one of those people that sort of equates weight with quality. I realize that's not always true, but the pens just feels like it's a high quality instrument.\nIt comes packaged VERY nicely with the special edition having a beautiful, oversized presentation box, which some may find ostentatious, but I rather enjoyed. The pen is nestled next to a bottle of Lamy's blue-black ink. I didn't open Lisa's ink for this review, but for what it's worth, I have my own bottle and I love it. It's a great ink and worth picking up, especially given the fact that you can get it dirt cheap.The box is entirely useless after the fact, but it's a nice step for Lamy to take and gives this pen a bit more of a luxury feel, which I think is nice.\nThe grip section is metal, which I was worried would be slippery. However, I found it to be just fine. It's not the most comfortable pen for extended writing sessions because of the metal section, but for jotting meeting notes and the like, the pen is quite nice and the snap cap makes for quick deployment as opposed to the threaded caps of other pens. The cap is bold and heavy and sturdy. The clip works wonderfully and the big chrome finial is a tiny bit flashy, but has a neat, modern feel to it. It doesn't draw a ton of attention, but it's not easily overlooked either. All the shiny bits, while wonderfully attractive to raccoons, have a tendency to be fingerprint magnets. So if you're one of those that hates fingerprints on your stuff (my wife need not even comment on my thoughts about fingerprints), you're going to spend as much time buffing and wiping your pen as you will writing with it.\nAnd that brings me to the writing experience... Oh boy. The nib looks like Lamy's standard, user-swappable offering, which can be found on their Safari, Al-Star, Studio, CP1, etc. And it is... Except that it's a two-tone 14k nib with just a little spring and a big ol' blob of tipping material for a smooth, comfy, luxurious writing experience. No skipping. No hard starts. No scratchiness. If anything, it's almost too smooth. I prefer my pens with a little feedback because my handwriting sucks and it gets sloppy if the pen is just flying across the page. This was somewhere between \"just toothy enough\" and \"too smooth.\" It wasn't unusable for me, but I think the fine nib (this one was a medium) would provide that little bit of extra feedback I'm looking for and enhance the writing experience for me. Also... As with most Lamy nibs, it ran a little wide with the medium being on the finer side of a broad nib by other manufacturers. A fine, I think, would be much more usable for daily writing for me.\nI know it sounds like I'm wavering a bit on the writing experience, but it really does deliver and I was 95% pleased with it. I could totally use this pen day in and day out, but my preference for slightly finer nibs would win out given the opportunity to get one with a finer nib.\nAll-in-all, I think this pen is a really great step-up from some of Lamy's lower-end pens. It uses a familiar, user-swappable nib, but the weighty metal build, 14k nib and overall elegant presentation and feel make this pen hard to overlook when taking your next step for a slightly elevated Lamy experience.\nHUGE thanks to Lisa Vanness at Vanness Pen Company for sending this over to review. I had a blast playing with it and I'll be ordering my own as I miss it already. Maybe if I'm lucky, Lisa will pick out one with a super nice fine nib for me... You listenin' Lisa!? Please take a few minutes to check out their brand new website at Vanness1938.com. They have so much to choose from including some hard-to-find inks from the likes of Bungubox and some special in-house stuff like KWZ inks which I am a huge fan of. And they're just awesome people so they should be on your list of preferred retailers. I know they're on mine.\n\u2190 Review & Giveaway: Visconti Rembrandt Giveaway: Lamy Al-Star Charged Green \u2192",

Northern Plains Resource Council is working with the Montana Cattlemen\u2019s Association and Montana Farmers Union to reinstate COOL during the 2019 legislative session.\nThe bill also includes language that prevents cell-cultured alternative proteins from being labeled, advertised, or marketed as livestock or poultry products and the use of terms like steak, burger, etc. If passed, the law would be implemented by Montana\u2019s Department of Labor and Industry, requiring no cost or investment from ranchers.\nPlacarding at the retail level, as required by SB 206, is designed to improve transparency for consumers while increasing market share for USA producers.\nOn Wednesday, February 6th, Northern Plains Resource Council release a press release regarding the country-of-origin labeling portion of the bill.\nThe Northern Plains Resource Council, a grassroots family agriculture organization, helped secure the passage of a Montana law requiring country-of-origin placarding in 2005. Montana\u2019s COOL legislation was designed to sunset if a federal law were passed requiring country-of-origin labeling, which occurred in 2009. However, that federal law was repealed in 2015, leaving Montanans uncertain about where their beef and pork comes from.\n\u201cEverything, including fish, vegetables, fruit, automobiles, toys, t-shirts - you name it - are labeled with country-of-origin, except for our beef and pork,\u201d said Gilles Stockton, a Grass Range rancher and member of Northern Plains Resource Council. \u201cConsumers have the right to know where their meat comes from, and producers deserve an honest market.\u201d\nNorthern Ag Network\nGraphic Credit: Northern Plains Resource Council\nTags: COOL Montana Farmers Union Northern Plains Resource Council Montana Cattlemen's Association cell-cultured proteins Montana Senate\nWe need Cool we need our meat labeled as to where it was produced",

Most of the area saw light rain this morning, with a few locally heavy thunderstorms for southern New York City earlier this afternoon. The worst of the severe weather, however, was focused over southeastern Virginia, where widespread strong to severe thunderstorms produced tornado warnings and dumped several inches of rain.\nTemperatures are going to be much cooler starting tomorrow, with near to slightly below average high temperatures likely, but these cool and dry conditions will not last for long, as more rain chances return by Sunday, as well as the return of warmer temperatures for next week.\nTomorrow will be partly sunny across the area. High temperatures will be much cooler than today, in the lower to occasionally mid 80s inland, and the mid to occasionally upper 80s for the immediate NYC area. Long Island and S CT, with a NNW wind, should reach the lower 80s.\nTomorrow night should also be chilly, with low temperatures expected to drop into the mid to upper 50s inland, lower to mid 60s for the immediate NYC area, and the upper 50s to lower 60s for Long Island and S CT. The cooler spots in east central Long Island should be slightly cooler.\nSaturday \u2013 Monday: Chilly, Some Rain\nSaturday will be the last of the comfortable and chilly days for a while, with slightly cooler temperatures than tomorrow. High temperatures will be in the lower to mid 80s across the area, with the wind direction turning towards the east. Saturday night should not be as chilly as tomorrow night with increasing cloud cover.\nRain is likely to return for the area on Sunday and Monday. The models still have different solutions, some showing a suppressed coastal low with no rain for the area and heavy rain to our south, and others showing scattered yet heavy showers and thunderstorms. At this time, I am expecting scattered showers and thunderstorms, mainly on Sunday night, some of which could produce heavy rainfall. High temperatures in this solution would be in the upper 70s to lower 80s across the area for both days.\nThis is not a final solution yet, and can still change. Stay tuned for more details over the next few days.\nNext Week: Hot, Humid Conditions Return\nBehind this area of storms, temperatures should warm up again with more humidity, with high temperatures back into the mid to upper 80s inland, and the upper 80s to lower 90s for the immediate NYC area. Dry conditions are expected for Tuesday, however by Wednesday, a cold front should move through, bringing the next risk of thunderstorms and potentially severe weather to the area. There is still uncertainty with the timing, with some models bringing the cold front through in the morning and others in the afternoon, however thunderstorms are likely for Wednesday at this time, with even hotter and more humid conditions possible in the slower scenario. Stay tuned for more details on this time frame.",

Hope you enjoy it.\nThe African Cup of Nations\nIs boxing disguised as football\nEvery year there\u2019s a rematch.\nLast time, after jabbing their way through the early rounds,\nHumble Zambia uppercut everyone;\nNow, they are the punch each country sees coming.\nDing, ding:\nA whole ring of sixteen continental contenders in South Africa\nWho all want their belt back.\nThe World Cup was only a warm-up;\nYes, that tournament was global\nBut these rivalries are personal,\nMore bitter than Tottenham\nVersus Arsenal.\nSo let\u2019s go, Togo;\nLet\u2019s go Ghana, Cape Verde, Niger,\nNigeria, Algeria,\nEthiopia, Tunisia,\nLet\u2019s swing our limbs till the referee tells us it\u2019s time to give it up;\nLet\u2019s go Burkina Faso,\nMali and Morocco,\nDR Congo, Angola, Ivory Coast \u2013\nLet\u2019s go up against the hosts\nAnd the reigning champions\nFor this is the African Cup of Nations\nAnd only one will get to stand in the sun,\nTo a standing ovation.\nDr. Denis Mukwege: Not a Great African Martyr\nOctober 27, 2012 Africa, Politics, Society One comment\nDr. Denis Mukwege, of the Democratic Republic of Congo, is a truly great human being. From all accounts that I have so far read and heard of him, he is tireless, inspirational and selfless. And that is what is so worryingly familiar about his narrative. The very real danger, unless entirely clear steps are taken, is that he will end up as yet another Great African Martyr.\nTwo days ago, Dr. Mukwege survived an attempt on his life. A group of armed men burst into his home, held his two young daughters and their friend at gunpoint, and killed a man who worked for him. It is fair to conclude that he was targeted because of his extraordinary work.\nFor the last decade and a half Dr. Mukwege and his colleagues have treated around 30,000 women for violent sexual injuries sustained during his country\u2019s brutal internal conflict. The founder of the world-renowned but poorly-funded Panzi hospital has also travelled the globe as an advocate for women\u2019s rights, and it is due to his outspoken nature that someone now seeks his life. To take but one example, please read his short and powerful address to the United Nations on September 25 this year, where he eschewed easy platitudes and instead spoke of the unacceptable state of affairs in the modern DRC:\n\u201cThis has been going on for 16 years! 16 years of errancy; 16 years of torture; 16 years or mutilation; 16 years of the destruction of women, the only vital Congolese resources; 16 years of destruction of an entire society.\u201d (My italics.)\nThe rest of the piece can be seen at this link. Yet, as can be seen above, whilst many salivate over the material wealth deep within the DRC\u2019s soil, Dr. Mukwege correctly recognises that a country\u2019s true wealth will always be its people. Such a vision is compelling and rare, and must be nurtured as far as possible.\nThe fact that Dr. Mukwege narrowly escaped with life should throw all of his exceptional efforts into into the sharpest focus. Few people are renowned for their medical skills, their campaigning and their compassion. Dr. Mukwege is renowned for all three. There are two simple steps that the international community, whom he criticised elsewhere in his UN speech for their \u201cfear and lack of courage\u201d, must now take to protect him and his unique gifts. First, they can provide him and his family with appropriate security for as many years as he needs it. Secondly, they can provide him and colleagues with unrestricted funding, or \u201ccore support\u201d, for their hospital in Bukavu for the next few years. It is only with this certainty of both safety and financial resources that his essential work can continue unabated.\nThe Great African Martyr is a shadow that hangs over much of the continent\u2019s recent history. So many of its most-loved sons and daughters were brutally murdered before they had a chance to complete their humanitarian deeds, for which Africa today is undoubtedly far poorer. The most resonant memory to my mind is that of Archbishop Janani Luwum, who was bludgeoned to death by Idi Amin and his henchmen in the Seventies. But there are so many others. People who struggled on against the odds whilst the world looked on anxiously, but ultimately from a comfortable distance: and whom, when they each met a demise of unutterable cruelty, the world then mourned and for the most part gently forgot.\nThis cannot happen to Dr. Mukwege. He cannot be someone whom we wistfully remember at dinner parties and conferences for years to come. His rightful place is not as some premature photo on a dusty mantelpiece. No. We have had too many Great African Martyrs, and he will not be another. The women who he has helped and will carry on helping need him far too much for that: Africa needs him far too much for that. So I propose that the legacy of this attempted assassination should be that he lives until old age, happy and healthy, with the money and the safety that he needs to fulfil his mission. All in favour, please say \u201cAye\u201d.",

        "raw_content": "Ridley Scott Walks You Through His Favorite Scene from Blade Runner\nThe opening Voight-Kampff test that turns explosive, the flight over the high-rise rooftops and past the tower-side video geisha of 2019 Los Angeles, Roy Batty's dying monologue on the rainy rooftop, Deckard picking up Gaff's origami unicorn: like any other movie meriting classic status, Blade Runner less possesses memorable scenes than comprises nothing but memorable scenes. Fans have, of course, argued for their favorites, and if you have one yourself you can now compare your judgment against that of the film's director Ridley Scott, who talks about which Blade Runner scene he holds in highest esteem in the new video from Wired above.\nScott picks the scene when Deckard, Harrison Ford's hunter of the artificial human beings known as replicants, visits the offices of the colossal Tyrell Corporation that invented them and interviews an immaculately put-together young lady, almost a vision out of film noir, named Rachael.\nBut that's no lady \u2014 that's a replicant, at least according to the Voight-Kampff gear he breaks out and sets up for the procedure. \"To Rick Deckard, it's just a job,\" says Scott. \"He appears to be oblivious to the beauty and is unimpressed by what he sees. At the end of it, he says, 'How can it now know what it is?' He calls her 'it.' So obviously she's a race apart.\"\nBut how to signal that to the audience, showing without telling? Scott speaks of modeling Rachael after Hedy Lamarr, the Austrian-born star from the golden age of Hollywood \"who had a severity which was spectacular.\" Still working at a time in cinema when \"digital doesn't have a word,\" he wanted a way to differentiate replicants from humans by putting an unusual \"light in their eyes\" (he references the leopard in the beginning of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey). Special effects supervisor Douglas Trumbull (who'd also worked on 2011) came up with a camera-mounted half-mirror that would, just often enough, tilt to make a \"golden light\" reflect off the retinas of Rachael and the other replicants. Scott's verdict: \"Genius.\"\nMany of us would say the same about most other aspects of Blade Runner as well. But as with any artistically rich film, nobody, not even the director, has the final say about it. Scott may have an unambiguous attitude about the best part of Blade Runner, but then, he also has an unambiguous answer to the story's central question of whether not just Rachael but Deckard himself is a replicant. Will Denis Villeneuve's soon upcoming sequel Blade Runner 2049 honor, ignore, or work around that answer? More to the point, will it, in the fullness of time, contribute as much to our collective memory as did the original? Only one test, of the kind that happens in the movie theater, will reveal that to us.\nThe Art of Making Blade Runner: See the Original Sketchbook, Storyboards, On-Set Polaroids & More\nBlade Runner 2049\u2019s New Making-Of Featurette Gives You a Sneak Peek Inside the Long-Awaited Sequel\nBased in Seoul, Colin Marshall writes and broadcasts on cities and culture.

Town leaders argue the move is an attempt to maintain the cultural purity of the local cuisine. I\u2019m betting there\u2019s something more behind this inspiration other than the \u201cgastronomic racism\u201d identified in the article. The Agriculture ministry has come out in support of the ban and I can\u2019t imagine the tourism industry is opposed. Why would they? If you\u2019re going to fork over a few k to travel to the Tuscan countryside you\u2019re not there to eat kebabs or Cantonese. There\u2019s plenty of that at home, at least in my neck of the woods.\nIt\u2019s an ironic twist on the French attempt to keep McDonalds off Parisian street as even new French restaurants would be banned.

        "raw_content": "Business, and especially online marketing, is all about trading. Advertisers, publishers, agencies, networks, and exchanges trade ad impressions, clicks, and conversions for money. A deal takes place when supply meets demand. Simple economics. This is why in business you sometimes work with people that you don\u2019t really like. It\u2019s all very rational, mostly about numbers.\nIn my personal life I want the complete opposite. I don\u2019t want to negotiate deals and I certainly don\u2019t want to spend my time with people that I don\u2019t like. I want to be with good and honest people, not worry about numbers, and simply have a good time.\nStill, I feel I\u2019m sometimes surrounded by people that treat personal relationships like business. They have this \u201cwhat\u2019s in for me\u201d attitude and constantly try to get the most out of you just for themselves. They mostly demand and hardly don\u2019t offer, they usually take and don\u2019t give, they consume and don\u2019t contribute, they talk a lot and act very little.\nEven if you think these people are your \u201cfriends\u201d, they are really not. They are just acquaintances and will be around only as long as you have something that they want. Once you have nothing to offer to them anymore you will never hear from them again. So don\u2019t waste your time with these bullshitters, life is too short.\nWhat is a friend then? It\u2019s actually quite simple:\nA friend is a person who does something for you without expecting anything in return, in the present or in the future. A friend is happy to help you out and will never ask you to return the favor. He will leave it up to you to show your gratitude.\nLast week I went to dmexco in Cologne, Germany\u2019s main digital marketing exposition and conference. Originally I was planning to go there on Tuesday, do some meetings on Wednesday and then leave to be back in the office on Thursday. So I didn\u2019t even bother getting a ticket for Wednesday night\u2019s big party (OMClub).\nIt turned out that I had to stay until Thursday and do all of our meetings. All the people that I knew were planning to go to that party and all the tickets had been gone for days or weeks already. So I just called a friend of mine and asked him whether he thought he could organize an extra ticket for me.\nHere is the important part: Without even thinking about it he immediately replied saying that I shouldn\u2019t worry and that he would sort me out. He told me to call him once I get to the venue and he would get me in. And it all went exactly as he promised. I gave him a call and there he was with an extra ticket. He was happy to give it to me and didn\u2019t ask for anything in return.\nThat is a friend.\nAn acquaintance would have asked for something in return, trying to get something out of my situation. Maybe not that night, but sooner or later an acquaintance would have brought up the ticket story for his own benefit. Now think about it, of those people that you usually hang out with, who are your real friends?\nThanks Ingo, I owe you one.\nWanna-Be Clients\nWhatever business you run, sometimes you realize that a potential client is not worth the effort. Sometimes that is because they have nothing to offer. But very often it is also the case that they are just looking for a free ride.\nThese people or companies are not really clients because you are never going to get any substantial business from them. I call them \u201cwanna-be clients\u201d. You need to avoid them like the plague. They are vampires, sharks, whatever you want to call them.\nHere are some very typical indicators of a wanna-be client:\n\u2013 He doesn\u2019t know his own product or service well enough.\n\u2013 He has no significant references.\n\u2013 His business develops very slowly.\n\u2013 He wants everything but doesn\u2019t want to pay for anything.\n\u2013 He constantly tries to bring your price down.\n\u2013 He wants a lot of free consulting without ever having done any business with you.\n\u2013 He is not willing to make any prepayments.\n\u2013 He never pays on time, or even worse, he doesn\u2019t pay at all.\n\u2013 He says all of your competitors are better and cheaper than you.\n\u2013 He always complains about everything.\nMy advice: Stay away from those people. They are bad luck. They cost you so much time and you\u2019re never going to make anything off them. Rejecting a wanna-be client is not a missed opportunity but an avoided nuisance. Leave this junk up to your competitors.\nI\u2019ve lived and worked according to this principle for many years now. As a result, I work with people who know what they are doing and who are willing to pay good money for good service. Remember, life is about quality and not quantity.\nTeamViewer Remote Control\nHave you ever wanted to control a remote computer? Then you have probably messed with VNC-based programs in the past. But the problem is that VNC is usually tied to a very specific port. And if you are behind a router or firewall you need to configure that device to allow you access to the computer. All really complicated, especially if you\u2019ve never heard of HTTP ports and such.\nTeamViewer solves all of these problems. It\u2019s remote desktop software available for Windows, Mac, Linux and iPhone. All you need to do is start the software and enter the TeamViewer ID of the remote machine and a pre-defined password. TeamViewer does the rest. No more worries about port configurations and possible video drivers interfering. For non-commercial use it\u2019s absolutely free and a must for every geek.\nDownload: http://www.teamviewer.com (no affiliate link)\nAffiliate Networks vs. CPA Networks\nLately I\u2019ve checked out a number of (mostly American) CPA networks and realized how old-fashioned most affiliate networks turn out to be. Here is why I like CPA networks much better.\nPrograms vs. Offers\nAffiliate networks are usually about merchants. Some of the programs bombard you with every possible banner, link and product feed they have and don\u2019t really help you much in making a choice. CPA networks on the contrary are usually about landing pages. A CPA offer may have a couple of landing pages, but that\u2019s it. Lately the affiliate networks have adopted the CPA trend and started what they call campaigns. They\u2019re basically integrating landing-page-only programs into their portfolio.\nDirect Relationship vs. Blind Network\nIn a traditional affiliate network the merchant (or the agency) has direct contact to the affiliate. In a CPA network the affiliate talks only to the network, not the merchant. Usually the merchant doesn\u2019t know the identity of the affiliate either.\nApproval Process vs. Instant Start\nMost affiliate programs have an admission process, many of them approve affiliates manually. In a CPA network you have no direct relationship with the advertiser, so there is no approval process. Affiliates can start right away and pull their codes. Don\u2019t you hate how long some affiliate managers sometimes take to approve you?\nOpen vs. Confirmed Transactions\nProbably every affiliate network can assign leads and sales a certain status: unconfirmed, confirmed, denied. I can understand the point of the merchants as they only want to pay for transactions for which the customer has actually paid. But affiliates, especially those that do media buying, need to know their final revenue by the end of the day. They can\u2019t do effective media buying if they don\u2019t know much money they actually made the previous day. So it\u2019s no surprise that most CPA networks don\u2019t get into this. They solve this for example by paying for every transaction but with a lower payout.\nSecrets vs. Transparency\nThere are still a number of affiliate networks that keep the performance of their programs secret. On the other hand, CPA networks are usually brutally honest and give you access to the metrics. Not only that you see the stuff in the interface. The other day I received an email from a CPA network with a list of all eCPCs for their search offers. I\u2019ve never received this from any affiliate network before, even when I asked them for it.\nVery simple. If you are a content publisher, stay with the good old-fashioned affiliate networks. They provide you with all the fancy ads that you can throw on your sites. Also, the really big brands want to be in control of their affiliates so you won\u2019t find very many of them on CPA networks. However, if you are a media buyer who wants to drive hardcore sales, go for the CPA networks.",

Ordained to the ministry of the Lutheran ch, for some years following the 2nd world war he was a director of its youth work. He pioneered new approaches to German hymnody, abandoning the traditional chorale in favour of what became known as the \u2018Kirchentag\u2019 style for large, politically radical youth gatherings. The biblical words in fresh language, set to a rhythmic, syncopated style of music, lasted well beyond its immediate context. In 1970 Trautwein became Provost of Frankfurt Cathedral, and from around that time his hymns began to feature in several German books. 50 years after its 1st edn he was a member of the editorial group for the 1974 (4th) edn of the international and multi-lingual hymn-book Cantate Domino. In 1983 in Vancouver he brought together some key hymnwriters from China, Argentina and Zimbabwe, who met again in 1999 at the American Hymn Soc conference in that city. His own work has been translated by Fred Pratt Green and Fred Kaan as well as Stephen Orchard, as here; in translation it has featured at Hymn Festivals in the UK and USA.

To accommodate the needs of these patients, many rehabilitation facilities offer various treatments and therapies that can treat both post-traumatic stress disorder and addiction to drugs and alcohol.\nof those who suffer from PTSD also abuse alcohol\nDependency on nicotine is nearly twice as common in people with PTSD\nPeople with PTSD are 3x more likely to abuse drugs than people without PTSD\n\u201cJust Get Over It!\u201d\nHave you ever had someone tell you to just get on with your life after you have experienced a traumatizing event?\nDo you feel distant from others and have \u201cout of body\u201d flashbacks of your trauma? Does it feel impossible to ever get over the sudden death of your loved one, the sexual assault, or the war experience? You may suffer from posttraumatic stress disorder, a common and debilitating mental illness.\nWhen we experience something traumatic or life threatening, it is normal for our bodies to activate our \u201cfight for flight\u201d response to deal with the overwhelming situation. This is a healthy response to protect our bodies. We may for a time feel sad, upset, or frightened. But after a period of time, the pain diminishes, and our lives return to normal.\nWhen Your Life Unravels\nWhen you suffer from posttraumatic stress disorder, the \u201cfight for flight\u201d response becomes badly damaged.\nInstead of the body and mind returning to a normal state after a terrifying event, the mind goes on overload, and PTSD symptoms start to develop.\nIf this has happened to you, you may find that the trauma you experienced is nearly impossible to get over on your own. You may feel a range of overwhelming emotions such as unexplained anger, depression, anxiety, and irritability. You may feel extremely tired, hyper-aroused, or have trouble digesting your food.\nSometimes it is difficult for you to understand that the symptoms you are experiencing are actually posttraumatic stress disorder because the trauma may have been experienced years ago, even in your childhood, and it is almost impossible for you to identify exactly what is causing your life to unravel.\nIt is important to realize that anyone can suffer from PTSD, and roughly 8% of all Americans (that\u2019s up to 7 million people!) will have PTSD during their lifetime.\nYou are not alone in suffering from PTSD, and it is not a sign of mental weakness to have PTSD. There are many factors that cause PTSD to develop (such as personality traits you were born with and how your brain responds to stress). Many people don\u2019t understand how complex PTSD is and wonder can PTSD cause addiction?\nIf you find yourself suffering from these three cluster symptoms for over one month, please seek professional help.\nRecreating the traumatic event over and over through flashbacks or nightmares.\nAvoiding people, places, or activities that trigger memories of the event.\nHyper-vigilance and attentiveness all the time for danger.\nThe PTSD Alliance is here for you, and our member organizations offer many helpful resources to overcome PTSD and substance problems. Whether you are a child or parent, man or woman, veteran or civilian, there is help for you. Please don\u2019t suffer from PTSD alone. You can heal and go on to lead a healthy life.",

        "raw_content": "2010 RP Mid Season All-Star Team (Short Season Edition)\nWe have passed the mid-point of the season of the short season leagues. So its time for the short-season edition of the 2010 Rays Prospects Mid-Season All-Star Team. Just like the full-season voting that took place in June, it is your opportunity to vote for the players you think are worthy of all-star status.\nVoting will take place until noon on August 8, 2010. The list contains players from all three of the short-season affiliates and they are listed in alphabetical order by the position in which they played the most during the 2010 season. The vote leaders in each category will be named to the all-star team as well as one wild card pitcher and hitter. The wild card player will be the highest voted player that did not win a position spot outright.\nClick here to vote for the 2010 RP Mid-Season All-Star.\nWith the Rays sending so many pitchers to the Hudson Valley Renegades, it's making it tough to even know how Hudson Valley pitchers are doing. We have 17 pitchers....10 (5+5) of them are piggybacking. Relief pitchers are barely pitching-lucky if it's once a week, This is crazy. The season is more than half over and we still don't have our 5 starters.I can't figure out what's going on.(Has to be tough on the coaches trying to get everybody into the games.) Do any other teams have this many pitchers?\nIt's that way at all levels. These pitchers are stagnating. Tough to know anything about their development when all they are doing is throwing side bullpen sessions.\nWould've thought a deal for a big bat for the big club might have opened things by moving some pitching. Hope these guys don't rot on the vine. Pitch them in games or move them for immediate help for the big club!!! I understand going slow with young pitchers, but this year is frustrating. No bats anywhere and pitchers all over the place who aren't getting innings. Something's got to give.\nKevin Gengler August 2, 2010 at 1:07 AM\nOne thing I think the front office actually does poorly is that they hold onto too many players. You see it at the major-league level where it seems like they're going out of their way to keep Lance Cormier around. Even with three short-season teams, guys are struggling to get consistent playing time, and besides being ridiculous, it's likely impacting development.",

        "title": "Trump shows no heart, killing DACA program and dashing hopes of Dreamers - Real Vail",
        "raw_content": "Trump shows no heart, killing DACA program and dashing hopes of Dreamers\nPresident Donald Trump kills DACA (illustration by Mark Hammermeister, Creative Commons, Flickr)\nThe Trump administration Tuesday declared the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program implemented by former President Barack Obama \u201cunconstitutional\u201d and announced it will end it in six months \u2014 essentially punting the issue to Congress to come up with a legislative fix to protect \u201cDreamers\u201d from deportation.\nDreamers are immigrants whose parents brought them to the United States illegally at a very young age. They have registered with the federal government, stayed out of legal trouble, worked, studied, paid taxes and contributed to their communities. RealVail.com profiled one such Dreamer in Eagle County, Alex Trujillo, in an article the Vail Daily published over the Labor Day weekend.\nPresident Donald Trump had previously promised to \u201cshow great heart\u201d in dealing with DACA.\nPublic pressure will be needed to get a largely gridlocked, Republican-controlled Congress to act in time (see the full list of Colorado lawmakers, with contact information, below). Any bill to save DACA will now likely be tied to increased internal immigration security and possibly even funding for Trump\u2019s border wall with Mexico.\nReaction to Tuesday\u2019s decision, which directly impacts nearly 800,000 DACA recipients (more than 17,000 in Colorado), was swift and scorching. Colorado U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet, a Democrat, tweeted:\nPOTUS decision is height of cruelty: attempt to score political points by separating families & disrupting schools & workplaces. #DefendDACA pic.twitter.com/umeJejPtoQ\n\u2014 Michael F. Bennet (@SenBennetCO) September 5, 2017\nColorado Sen. Cory Gardner, a Republican, put out this statement on the decision:\n\u201cI have long said that we need to have a legislative solution to fix our broken immigration system \u2013 this also includes children living in this country without documentation, who were brought here by no fault of their own. I\u2019m currently working with my colleagues in Congress about the next legislative steps we can take to ensure these children continue to have the opportunity to be in this country. We are in this situation today because the program was created through executive action by the previous administration instead of through Congress. We now have the opportunity to fix this issue through the legislative process.\u201d\nColorado Speaker of the House Crisanta Duran, a Democrat, put out this statement:\n\u201cPresident Trump has called the 800,000 Dreamers \u2018really incredible kids\u2019 and he publicly assured them that they could \u2018rest easy.\u2019 But now, in a cruel and cynical reversal that puts the president squarely on the wrong side of history, the administration has declared that it will end the DACA program.\n\u201c17,000 Colorado Dreamers are now at risk of having their lives uprooted and being separated from their loved ones. But this issue affects all Coloradans. Those 17,000 Dreamers contribute more than $800 million to Colorado\u2019s economy. Most of all, this is an issue of basic humanity. Dreamers were brought here as children, grew up and went to school and built their lives here, and are Americans in every sense but their documentation. They are living \u2014 and contributing to \u2014 the American Dream. They should be allowed to stay, and I call on Congress to create a viable path for them to gain citizenship.\u200b\u201d\nU.S. Rep. Jared Polis, a Democrat whose district include part of the Vail Valley, tweeted:\nCongress MUST act to replace #DACA with a permanent legal solution for the nearly 1,000,000 aspiring Americans directly impacted\n\u2014 Jared Polis (@jaredpolis) September 5, 2017\nPolis later issued a more extensive comment:\n\u201cToday I am outraged that more than 17,000 Coloradans, who I consider my fellow Americans, got the news that their lives have dramatically altered by a callous and short-sighted decision of our president. By ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, President Trump has cast nearly one million aspiring Americans back into the shadows,\u201d said Polis.\n\u201cThe situation is dire. These aspiring Americans belong here, and they should have the ability to use their talents and pursue their dreams. I have had the honor of meeting and getting to know inspiring dreamers like Oscar, a dreamer who attended President Trump\u2019s first State of the Union with me and wants to serve his country in our military if only we will let him; and Brithany, a CSU student who is active in her community by working as a nurse assistant in a dementia ward; as well as many many other dreamers who I will advocate for in Congress. It is past time for Congress to rise to the occasion, and do its job by creating a permanent solution to help this population, and that is why I will continue to advocate for the American Hope Act or other legislation to create a permanent way out of the shadows for Brithany, Oscar, and so many others whose stories are just as inspiring.\u201d\nU.S. Rep. Scott Tipton, who represents part of Eagle County in Congress, issued this statement on the DACA decision:\nColorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, a Democrat, issued this statement:\n\u201cColorado has always been a place where people can determine their destiny. The DACA program provides thousands of young people the opportunity to do just that. President Trump\u2019s decision to end the DACA program unnecessarily jeopardizes the futures of more than 17,000 Coloradans. We strongly encourage Colorado\u2019s congressional delegation to support the passage of the Dream Act, ensuring that Dreamers can continue making contributions to the only country they\u2019ve ever called home. We will not turn our back on these young people and neither should our country.\u201d\nAccording to USA.gov (https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials/) here\u2019s how you can contact Colorado\u2019s congressional delegation:\nDistrict 5 \u2013 Doug Lamborn, Republican",

The utility scale solar photovoltaic plant, which covers 4.5 square kilometers, will produce enough electricity to serve more than 130,000 people. Its addition to the UAE network displaces the need for power from fossil fuels that would have produced about 250,000 tons of carbon emissions annually.\nFurther expansions are planned and the Mohamed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum solar park, when completed by 2030, will be spread across a 70 square kilometer area, which, according the company, will make it the largest single-site solar project in the world with a capacity of 5,000 MW. This is equal to serving the energy needs of 800,000 homes and will help mitigate the impact of around 6.5 million tons of carbon dioxide per year, says ABB. This development supports the UAE\u2019s goal to be a global center of clean energy and a green economy by 2050.",

        "raw_content": "Sunamp and Glasgow University win \u00a32m collaborative project with China to tackle sustainable energy challenge\nArticle preview: Mind the gap: A bridge between industry and academia\nCollaboration U: Where renewable energy and higher education converge\nSunamp | Sunamp Heat Batteries\nSunamp has led a successful funding bid jointly with Glasgow University and partners in China to boost the performance of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power plants that use clean, although intermittent, renewable heat sources for distributed heat and power supply in China.\nBy integrating Sunamp\u2019s heat storage technologies with the ORC, according to the company it is possible to produce a more dependable distributed heat and power supply using a wide range of renewable heat sources, such as solar energy.\nORC has the same working principle as a steam power cycle, except it uses organic compounds with low boiling points as working fluids. It is believed to be among the most promising technologies to use sources of renewable heat and cut pollution generated by fossil fuels, and it perfectly fits the needs of a country like China, still mainly relying on coal for its heat and power needs, but with big plans to increase penetration of renewables.\nThe joint project has been awarded \u00a32M funding from the China-UK Research and Innovation Bridges programme, a joint UK China initiative under the Newton Fund developing cutting edge solutions for agri-food, energy, healthcare, and urbanisation. At \u00a321M it is largest ever bilateral call between UK and China. In addition, UK partners have contributed \u00a3182,000 towards project costs and Chinese partners contributed a further \u00a3577,000.\nThe research consortium comprises Sunamp Ltd and University of Glasgow in the UK, and Chinese project lead Beijing University of Technology (BJUT) along with business partner China Investment Yixing Red Sun Solar Energy Technology Company (CIYR), a medium sized SME focusing on solar thermal power generation technologies.\nAndrew Bissell, Sunamp founder and CEO, said: \u201cTo overcome the intermittency of solar energy, Sunamp heat batteries will be integrated with ORC power plants to store heat energy for power generation when the sun doesn\u2019t shine. This funding award allows us to bring together complementary expertise of the project partners in the UK and China to address the remaining technical challenges ready for commercial roll out.\u201d\nAcademic leader Dr Zhibin Yu from the University of Glasgow\u2019s School of Engineering said: \u201cWe\u2019re pleased to be working on this exciting project with Sunamp, Beijing University of Technology and China Investment Yixing Red Sun Solar Energy Technology Company.\n\u201cThe Rankine Cycle is named after the University of Glasgow pioneer Professor William Rankine FRS (1820-1872), so it\u2019s particularly fitting that the University of Glasgow is contributing to this project. Building upon on-going research on ORC power generation technologies at the School, this exciting project will facilitate knowledge transfer, delivering real impacts to the world.\u201d",

Light and refreshing, they went very well with our starters.\" Yonatan Sternberg is invited to dinner and impressed with his host's Israel wine selections.\nAs a person who appreciates quality wine, it's always a pleasure to arrive at a dinner party where as much careful attention has been paid to the wine selection as to the preparation of the food.\nRecently I was invited to such a dinner at a close friend's house. Of course I called to see if he would prefer that I bring a bottle of red or a bottle of white wine. When he told me to not to worry about it, I offered to bring a bottle of Cava (a sparkling Spanish wine produced using the same methods which are used in the production of Champagne) to get the evening started, again he insisted I needn't bring a thing and informed me that everything was taken care of. But growing up my mother taught me that one should always bring a small gift as a token of appreciation when invited for dinner, hence I decided to pick up some flowers on the way over. Now back to the wines.\nWe were greeted with a platter of grilled vegetables, an assortment of fantastic finger food and one of my favorites: a chilled flute of kir royal. This classic French cocktail is prepared by adding a dash of cr\u00e8me de cassis to a glass of Champagne and in my opinion is always an excellent way to start off a meal.\nAs mentioned above, the wine selection was quite impressive and offered both red and white wines which were both very approachable and not the wines that you see every day. For the lighter and younger wines my friend decided to serve both the Masa Israeli (Hebrew for 'Israeli Journey') red and white wines which are produced by the Vitkin Winery. Light and refreshing, they went very well with our starters. Personally, I prefer the white wine from this label, a refreshing and well balanced wine suggesting tempting white floral aromas along with various fruits and offering a pleasant finish.\nLittle did we know that the best was yet to come, my friend decided to go all out and took a couple of bottles of Barkan, Superior, Merlot, 2004 out of the cellar. This red is considered Barkan's top red and in my opinion rightfully so. Full bodied, the wine offers rich concentrated aromas of dark fruits including: black cherries, plums and hints of spice all leading to a long and well balanced finish.\nAfter an evening like this all that is left to say is: BRAVO!!!\nBarkan Winery Web Site\nVitkin Winery Web Site",

        "title": "Benjamin Rush on the Death Penalty - 1792",
        "raw_content": "Benjamin Rush on the Death Penalty\nBenjamin Rush was a signer of the Declaration of Independence from Pennsylvania. He wrote in 1792 that he was firmly against the death penalty for moral reasons. Benjamin Rush felt that if the government killed criminals it made the government as bad as the criminals.\nUnderstanding what our Founding Fathers believed about the death penalty can help us decide how to view this issue today. The founders had differing opinions just as people do today. You can also learn what founders Thomas Jefferson and James Wilson believed about the death penalty by clicking the links at the bottom of this page.\nBenjamin Rush Statue\nIn an essay upon the effects of public punishments upon criminals and upon society, published in the second volume of the American Museum, I hinted, in a short paragraph, at the injustice of punishing murder by death. I shall attempt in the following essay, to support that opinion, and to answer all the objections that have been urged against it.\nI. Every man possesses an absolute power over his own liberty and property, but not over his own life. When he becomes a member of political society, he commits the disposal of his liberty and property to his fellow citizens; but as he has no right to dispose of his life, he cannot commit the power over it to any body of men. To take away life, therefore, for any crime, is a violation of the first political compact.\nII. The punishment of murder by death, is contrary to reason, and to the order and happiness of society.\n1. It lessens the horror of taking away human life, and thereby tends to multiply murders.\n2. It produces murder, by its influence upon people who are tired of life, and who, from a supposition, that murder is a less crime than suicide, destroy a life (and often that of a near connexion) and afterwards deliver themselves up to justice, that they may escape from their misery by means of a halter.\n3. The punishment of murder by death, multiplies murders, from the difficulty it creates of convicting persons who are guilty of it. Humanity, revolting at the idea of the severity and certainty of a capital punishment, often steps in, and collects such evidence in favour of a murderer, as screens him from justice altogether, or palliates his crime into manslaughter. If the punishment of murder consisted in long confinement, and hard labor, it would be proportioned by the measure of our feelings of justice, and every member of society would be a watchman or a magistrate, to apprehend a destroyer of human life, and to bring him to punishment.\n4. The punishment of murder by death, checks the operations of universal justice, by preventing the punishment of every species of murder. Quack doctors--frauds of various kinds--and a licentious press, often destroy life, and sometimes with malice of the most propense nature. If murder were punished by confinement and hard labour, the authors of the numerous murders that have been mentioned, would be dragged forth, and punished according to their deserts. How much order and happiness would arise to society from such a change in human affairs! But who will attempt to define these species of murder, or to prosecute offenders of this stamp, if death is to be the punishment of the crime after it is admitted, and proved to be wilful murder?--only alter the punishment of murder, and these crimes will soon assume their proper names, and probably soon become as rare as murder from common acts of violence.\n5. The punishment of murder by death, has been proved to be contrary to the order and happiness of society by the experiments of some of the wisest legislators in Europe. The Empress of Russia, the King of Sweden, and the Duke of Tuscany, have nearly extirpated murder from their dominions, by converting its punishment into the means of benefiting society, and reforming the criminals who perpetrate it.\nIII. The punishment of murder by death, is contrary to divine revelation. A religion which commands us to forgive and even to do good to our enemies, can never authorise the punishment of murder by death. \"Vengeance is mine,\" said the Lord; \"I will repay.\" It is to no purpose to say here, that this vengeance is taken out of the hands of an individual, and directed against the criminal by the hand of government. It is equally an usurpation of the prerogative of heaven, whether it be inflicted by a single person, or by a whole community.\nI cannot take leave of this subject without remarking that capital punishments are the natural offspring of monarchical governments. Kings believe that they possess their crowns by a divine right: no wonder, therefore, they assume the divine power of taking away human life. Kings consider their subjects as their property: no wonder, therefore, they shed their blood with as little emotion as men shed the blood of their sheep or cattle. But the principles of republican governments speak a very different language. They teach us the absurdity of the divine origin of kingly power. They approximate the extreme ranks of men to each other. They restore man to his God--to society--and to himself. They revive and establish the relations of fellow-citizen, friend, and brother. They appreciate human life, and increase public and private obligations to preserve it. They consider human sacrifices as no less offensive to the sovereignty of the people, than they are to the majesty of heaven. They view the attributes of government, like the attributes of the Deity, as infinitely more honoured by destroying evil by means of merciful than by exterminating punishments. The United States have adopted these peaceful and benevolent forms of government. It becomes them therefore to adopt their mild and benevolent principles. An execution in a republic is like a human sacrifice in religion. It is an offering to monarchy, and to that malignant being, who has been styled a murderer from the beginning, and who delights equally in murder, whether it be perpetrated by the cold, but vindictive arm of the law, or by the angry hand of private revenge.\nOther Founding Fathers had beliefs differing from Benjamin Rush about the death penalty.

But how, exactly, do you 3D print metal?\n3D printing, or Additive Manufacturing (AM), is a process in which layers of material are built up into a 3D shape under computer control. The process works for both basic and complex shapes, and it has the major advantage of being able to create intricate designs with relative ease \u2013 and minimal waste.\nIf you\u2019re curious to find out about how the dropouts are made, here\u2019s a minute-long explanation of the process:\nWhy the interest in 3D printing?\nIt may not be cheap, but it offers a number of benefits. To summarise just a few of the advantages, 3D printed parts tend to have a high strength-to-weight and a high stiffness-to-weight ratio.\n3D printing can create structures with far more complexity than a process like casting can produce. This is a major advantage for these dropouts, which have intricate internal features, as the picture below demonstrates:\nAs previously mentioned, the process creates minimal waste, as the shape is built up, rather than being machined from a larger block of material.\nLastly, and perhaps most crucially, the 3D printing process can allow for a customisable design. This means parts such as these dropouts can be altered with the same ease as ordering a takeaway online.\nReynolds 3D printed titanium dropouts are tailor-made to integrate into our chainstays and seatstays. This indicates that 3D printed parts could well significantly reduce the time and cost for framebuilders, as they are built with such precision that they seamlessly attach to frames.\nIs 3D printing going to be a major player in the bike industry in the future?\nNone of us can tell the future. If we could, we\u2019d be millionaires by now and spend winters cycling in Monaco.\nWe can only say that the advantages of the technology are undeniable. As the process is further refined, the cost is likely to reduce. This opens up all sorts of possible applications for framebuilders, which could save them time, money and effort \u2013 and could kick-start a whole wave of industry innovation.

        "raw_content": "History of the African Lion Dog\nThe Rhodesian Ridgeback is a native of South Africa. In the early 16th century, European settlers found a domesticated dog among the Hottentot tribe that distinctive ridge of fur along its spine. By the 1860s, European settlers were breeding the indigenous dogs with Great Danes, Bloodhounds, Greyhounds and Terriers, resulting in the Boer hunting dog, a relative of the modern Ridgeback. This new breed was developed as hunting dog, while also able to guard the farm from animal and human prowlers and withstand the African bush environment. The Rhodesian Ridgeback came to the United States in the 1950s and was admitted into the American Kennel Club in 1955 as past of the Hound Group..\nThe Ridgeback has a quiet, gentle temperament and rarely barks. He loves to lay in patches of sun and be a \"couch potato,\" but becomes instantly alert if a stranger should appear and can make a threatening presence as a watchdog. Because of his prey instinct, a Ridgeback can make a good hunting partner, agility competitor, or lure courser. However, the Ridgeback is very affectionate and can be a good companion for a child. Because of his protective instincts and large, muscular size, a Ridgeback should not be trained as a guard dog but must be properly trained in obedience. Moreover, children must be taught the appropriate rules of interaction and respect for all dogs they encounter.\nAdditional information is provided by the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States, Inc.

        "title": "Robert Daniel Flowers | 35mm",
        "raw_content": "In the late eighties a fellow filmmaker, James Cain gave me three 35mm film motion picture trailers. They were Beetlejuice, Young Guns, and The Dead Pool. I tried unsuccessfully to use a shot from the latter in Are There Fairies Dancing on the Lawn?\u2026And if There Are Can I Catch Them in a Net? The rolls sat unused in various boxes until 2008. When plans to shoot a new work with 16mm and 8mm failed to materialize, the trailers resurfaced. While experimenting with their digitization, I discovered a way to distort them, and so began the long conversion process. Eventually, I generated enough footage to create Canned Meat (Trilogy), a 13 minute hybrid containing hundreds of edits in picture and sound. Using similar but varying techniques, Disjecta Membra, Soft Film Poem, I AM A STAR, and X-Rated were completed in 2009. I titled the series 35mm. Below is the original artist statement:\n35mm is a collection of five works which use celluloid as the major structural component. It produces a filmic or cinematic look regardless of the process of digitalization. This series of shorts reflects digital technologies assimilation of the motion picture in non-traditional filmmaking. This may be most evident by the flat-panel displays and DLP projectors used for exhibition.\n35mm presents itself as a body of work exploring celluloid\u2019s place in the future of avant-garde cinema. The hybrid may represent the best of both mediums, the acquisition of the image on film and the advantage of digital post-production and distribution. At the very least it is the final supernova before the analog world of gears and sprockets goes silent and dark.\n- Robert Daniel Flowers, May 2009\n35mm opened at Centraltrak in Dallas and was later co-presented by the Aurora Picture Show at the FlickerLounge (part of DiverseWorks) in Houston Texas. It was also projected at the Ro2Art gallery (info) in downtown Dallas via the McKinney Avenue Contemporary (The MAC). 35mm was also displayed at the Richland College Faculty Exhibit in the Brazos Gallery and the Atrium Gallery at Brookhaven College in Dallas. Additionally, Canned Meat was screened at the Austin Underground Film Festival (Psych Nite). In 2013, Disjecta Membra was part of Proto-Cinematic Investigations @ Bergen Gallery in Paramus New Jersey.\nCanned Meat (2008) was an exhausting effort. The digitization of the trailers easily took as many as one-hundred hours to produce the various nuances in the image. The results are vertical streaks of color permeating each frame in seemingly random patterns. The editing process was equally daunting, but was built around the relationship between the characters\u2019 actions. Beetlejuice points his finger as a gun, it fires, in response Billy the Kid pulls his pistol, and Dirty Harry swiftly retaliates. Gunfire erupts maniacally, interrupted sporadically by cutaways with dialog or music. Eventually the entire Young Guns cast joins the firefight in the ensuing crescendo. The shots act as musical beats in a sometimes demanding soundtrack, yet creates a rhythmic harmony with the onscreen action. I felt the image and sound had reached such an extreme level of manipulation, that it resembled processed meat. Perhaps this is fitting in a culture of candy coated violence where the sweet flavor hides its true ingredients.\n(Stills from Canned Meat)\nIn I AM A STAR (2009) the laser printer becomes the paparazzi by recording the celebrities true essence on 35mm clear leader. With music reminiscent of a carnival midway, their dotted faces bop comically across the screen in the resulting transformation. The occasional jam further disfigured their star persona as the black and white toner sometimes failed to adhere to the polyester film, causing smears and scuffs. The application of a spray fixative binds the celebrity with sprocket holes despite never passing through a cameras gate. In many ways a ritualistic activity, the video is built to unveil the STARS actual appearance.\n(Stills from I AM A STAR)\nX-Rated (2009) is a collage made from the pages of various straight and gay pornographic magazines. Nude figures and sexual advertisements are cut roughly to size and glued to 35mm clear leader. The paper is later removed, leaving only the ink. Once digitized, the frames are animated in conjunction with a vector based disco ball to a looped portion of music from a 70\u2032s adult movie. While it does not have the number of edits as the other works in the series, X-Rated relies heavily on the exact synchronization of picture and sound. The spinning ball also acts as a black bar covering up sexual acts or genitalia until it shrinks in size and bounces across the screen revealing what hides beneath.\n(Stills from X-Rated)\nSoft Film Poem\u2019s (2009) aesthetic comes from a mixture of techniques from hand-painted film and various software programs. 35mm emulsion is scraped, bleached, or painted with ink. Once inside the confines of the computer, the film is layered, colorized, and sized accordingly. Orbiting spheres seem to pass through formations of clouds and debris, while the visual aspects of an optical stereo soundtrack move graciously across the bottom of the frame. Using sound from a theremin and the resonance from a wine glass, Soft Film Poem\u2019s audio mimics the ethereal qualities of the moving image.\n(Stills from Soft Film Poem)\nRandom shots from the trailers of The Quick and the Dead, Beetlejuice, Desperado, and footage from an unknown Ben Stiller film are strategically burnt to varying degrees. The remnants are cut into a new narrative. In this context, the videos title, Disjecta Membra (2009), Latin for scattered fragments or remains, refers to the surviving pieces of various films rather than ancient poetry or pottery. However, instead of parts being lost over the millennia, these were willfully destroyed or damaged over a course of days or weeks. A motion picture film trailer is purposely designed as a linear series of fragments taken from the whole to summarize or emphasize certain aspects of it. Thus inter-cutting burned shots from multiple trailers scatters the remains exponentially.\n(Stills from Disjecta Membra)",

        "raw_content": "AIG executive says explosive growth of technology\nleaves businesses of all sizes vulnerable\nBy Phil Zinkewicz\nCompanies spend more than $13 U.S. billion in damages caused by security breaches in their information technology (IT) systems. In just the first five days of circulation, the I Love You virus cost businesses $6.7 billion. The Slammer worm made Internet history as the fastest spreading computer bug, crippling banks and airlines worldwide. It took only 10 minutes to infect 160,000 computers.\nThese sobering and startling statistics can be found in a \"brokers' tool kit\" produced by AIG eBusiness Risk Solutions (eBRS), a unit of the property and casualty subsidiaries of American International Group (AIG). The purpose of the tool kit is to assist brokers and agents in understanding the importance of the need for insurance products and risk management services that protect corporate and personal assets from the emerging exposures inherent in the rapidly expanding world of technology and e-business.\nThere's more. A recent survey of more than 500 large U.S. corporations and government agencies conducted by the FBI and the Computer Security Institute, found that:\n* 90% of respondents had detected computer security breaches within the past 12 months\n* 80% acknowledged financial losses due to computer breaches\n* 74% of respondents cited their Internet connection as a frequent point of attack\n* 33% cited their LAN networks as a frequent point of attack\n* 34% reported network intrusions to law enforcement officials\n* 40% reported detections of external hackers and denial of service attacks\n* 78% detected employee abuse of Internet access privileges\n* 85% detected computer viruses\nThe survey showed a breakdown of dollar amount of e-business losses by type. Unauthorized insider access resulted in roughly $4.5 million. Financial fraud caused about $115.7 million in losses; telecom fraud, $6 million; theft of property information, $170.8 million; virus, almost $50 million; laptop theft, $11.7 million; inside net abuse, $50 million; denial of service, $18.3 million; sabotage, $15 million; systems penetrations, $13 million; and telecom eaves-dropping, $345,000.\n\"In the 21st century, where computers are all connected to each other, the term 'property' no longer consists of buildings, desks and chairs,\" says Ty R. Sagalow, executive vice president and chief operating officer of eBRS. \" 'Property' must now include systems programs, important data, communications programs and all of the things that are part and parcel to the new world of information technology and e-business. However, businesses out there may not be aware that traditional policies generally do not cover data and information systems from security threats, leaving businesses vulnerable and in considerable need of specialized protection from network risks.\"\n\"In the 21st century, where computers are all connected to each other, the term 'property' no longer consists of buildings, desks and chairs.\"\n--Ty R. Sagalow, Executive Vice President and COO, AIG eBusiness Risk Solutions\nSagalow says that eBRS has been offering such specialized coverages for some time now. About two years ago, eBRS introduced AIG Personal Internet Identity Coverage (PIIC), a coverage designed to help businesses and other organizations address the online privacy concerns of consumers by offering reimbursement of financial losses and legal assistance in the event of identity theft. Target markets for this coverage include: credit card companies and other financial institutions that use a customer's credit card bank and brokerage account numbers for online transactions; Internet service providers, including companies that provide Internet access via television or wireless devices; credit information service providers that report credit irregularities resulting from an identity theft incident; employers managing their employees' personal information online through company systems; and, associations offering personal insurance lines as part of member service programs.\nThe AIG unit had already been offering virus distribution coverage, which protects insureds from property damage to the computer caused by a virus.\nThis e-business insurance sector of the industry has apparently proven very attractive for AIG because, just last May, eBRS enhanced its NetAdvantage\u00ae Suite (2003) of network security insurance and risk management services to \"address the increasing exposure to threats of viruses, hackers, information theft and destruction, and cyber terrorism.\"\nAccording to Sagalow, new features include:\n* Network business interruption, providing payment for both online and offline business interruption losses following a computer attack. This includes coverage for extended business interruption losses and dependent business interruption losses.\n* Forensic expenses and extra expense coverage, providing reimbursement for computer attack forensic and investigation expenses and payment for certain additional expenses incurred to restore the insured business.\n* Broadened network security liability coverage for third-party damages and defense costs for legal liability arising out of a covered computer attack on the insured's network, including punitive damages.\n* Broadened definition of computer attack including both targeted and non-targeted attacks.\n* Identity theft liability coverage for theft of electronically stored personal information of employees, customers, or clients of the insured; an optional AIG identity theft call center is also available.\n* Cyber terrorism coverage available by endorsement for broadly defined Acts of Terrorism, providing coverage for both \"certified\" and \"non-certified\" acts of terrorism as defined in TRIA. Coverage provides for first- and third-party loss, damage to data, business interruption and third-party liability resulting from acts of cyber-terrorism.\n* Physical theft of hardware containing data and information assets.\n\"As the leading provider of network security and cyber-risk insurance (Sagalow says that eBRS has about 70% of the market, so far) eBRS is continually re-examining its product set to meet the new risks and challenges of today's business environment,\" says Sagalow. \"We currently have about 160 brokers--from the large alphabet broker to the local mom and pop agency--selling these e-business products. The technology exposures of the large corporate exposures are evident, but many agents and brokers don't realize that even the smallest businesses today have technology exposures--everything from the small local bank to the local supermarket.\"\nSagalow says that the brokers' tool kit is intended to make it easy for the smaller agents and brokers to sell these e-business products to their smaller commercial clients. \"In our tool kit, we have provided the broker with a series of basic questions to ask a client when selling our products,\" says Sagalow. They are:\n* Does your company maintain important or confidential data such as client information? Do you know the financial cost of replacing that data if it is damaged in a computer attack? Do you know the financial cost in legal expenses, judgments, settlements and punitive damages in the event of litigation arising from that data being stolen in a computer attack?\n* Is a working computer network important to the operations of your company? Would business be adversely affected if the network was shut down due to a computer attack? If so, do you know the financial cost in lost revenue and additional expenses associated with such an event? Would such a computer attack adversely affect your ability to service your clients?\n* Do you know the financial costs in the event of an employee transmitted virus to your customers, clients, Web visitors or other third parties? Do you know you may be responsible even if it is accidentally sent?\n* Has your company ever been hit with a mass computer virus, such as NIMDA or Code Red, and do you know the total financial consequences of that event?\n\"There are other questions,\" continues Sagalow, \"including whether a company is vulnerable to a cyber extortion threat, whether a company renders Internet professional services to others, whether the company maintains a Web site and whether the company directly or indirectly affects the economy or the health and welfare or safety of the public. All these things are what businesses large and small must consider in these days. We're talking about potential losses that are intangible. We're not talking about when a store burns down and you can measure the property loss. Today, a computer virus can go around the world in minutes and damage entire data bases.\"\nSagalow says that, when purchasing insurance coverages for technology exposures, it is extremely important to know what is being covered. \"The sources of computer attacks are varied. Most people think of computer attacks as being perpetrated only by financial fraudsters. Certainly, they are a big part of the problem, but computer attacks can be perpetrated by terrorists, disgruntled employees or ex-employees who just want to have revenge on their employers or even the 14-year-old freckle-faced kid who is hacking for fun. Many policies cover only certain types of attacks. Our coverage is for all attacks.\"\nOn the risk management side, Sagalow says that eBRS is also providing assistance to brokers and, in fact, anyone who wants information on controlling e-business exposures. Any company can log onto the unit's Web site (www.aignetadvantage.com) and, in an hour, get a complete analysis of the company's IT situation. \"This site exists as a public service,\" says Sagalow. \"If the company sends in an application for insurance, we will send in a team of IT experts from a third-party vendor to analyze the company's situation, write a 25-page report and give the company a grade. If that company accepts the vendor's recommenda-tions and purchases our coverage, there will be a discount on premium of about 25%. If the company decides not to purchase our coverage, they keep the report, worth about $50,000, as our gift.\"\nSagalow says that the e-business area is one in which eBRS expects to grow, and he invites brokers who have IT exposures in their communities to explore its programs. \"For those who find this new and frightening terrain, we will help them,\" says Sagalow. *\nAIG eBusiness Risk Solutions\nWeb site: www.aigebrs.com",

        "raw_content": "The firm Russell Turner was established more than 70 years ago when Bob Russell and Lyle Turner entered into partnership in 1946.\nThe partnership started in offices upstairs on the corner of Walton and Robert Streets. In 1974 Bob and Lyle were joined by Brian Moyle and Bill Roberts, and the firm became known as Russell Turner Moyle and Roberts. Bob retired in 1975 after 34 years in full time practice, and shortly afterwards the firm moved to new purpose-built offices at Abacus House in Rust Avenue.\nNeil Ruddell became a partner in 1990. Lyle, Brian, Bill and Neil were joined by Paul Sorenson and Maurice Petherick in 1996, and the firm became known as Russell Turner & Partners. Lyle retired in 1997, and Paul and Maurice left the practice in 1999 and the firm became Russell Turner Chartered Accountants.\nIn 2002 Nigel Brereton became a partner, also opening an office in Ruawai. In 2007 Gavin Buckingham and Eddie Roberts became partners, and Bill Roberts became a consultant. In 2009 Brian became a consultant.\nIn 2010 the firm moved to 58 Otaika Road after nearly 35 years in Rust Ave. In 2014 Barbara Gailey became a partner, also opening an office at Ruakaka.\nRobert (Bob) George Russell\nBob Russell retired in December 1975 after 34 years in full-time practice. He was born in Morrinsville but educated mainly in Dannevirke. He studied part-time and qualified in March 1935, having worked for the Public Trust in Dannevirke and Auckland.\nBob had a tour of duty overseas during the Second World War, was discharged early on medical grounds and came to Whangarei in December 1942 to set up in private practice. His business started with appointments as secretary/treasurer to the Whangarei High Schools' Board and clerk of the then Onerahi Town Council.\nIn 1943 he joined the Whangarei RSA and was its auditor before becoming secretary-treasurer in May 1944. He kept that post for the next 32 years, initially being involved with securing full office facilities for the association - a big job given the return of troops from overseas, the consequent rapid increase in membership and the Association's rehabilitation and welfare work. He was made a life member of the RSA in May 1970 and awarded the Merit Badge in 1974.\nIn 1946, Bob was joined by Lyle Turner, formerly of Kaitaia, and 28 years later, in October 1974, Brian Moyle and Bill Roberts became partners in the firm. Bob served as auditor for a number of Whangarei and District organisations, was secretary/treasurer of the Whau Valley School Committee and coached school cricket teams. His hobbies were bowls and gardening.\nAfter 34 years in full-time practice, he retired in December 1975 and passed away in May 1985 at the age of 72.\nLyle Henry William Turner\nA community man through and through, Lyle Turner devoted time and energy to his family, voluntary organisations and sporting institutions. His sport connections read like an almanac: tennis, cricket, yachting and rugby.\nLyle was born in Kaitaia in May 1925. He excelled at school there: at age 14, he had completed his high school education but was too young to go to university, so he studied accountancy by correspondence while working in Kaitaia and Kaikohe. In 1946 he joined with Bob and established Russell Turner in Whangarei.\nYachting was one of Lyle's passions. He helped form the Paihia and Onerahi yacht clubs, was secretary and treasurer of the Northland Cricket Club and was a keen supporter of the Kamo Cricket and Rugby Clubs. Lyle was honoured to be a recipient of the Brian Maunsell Memorial for Service to Sports award and also a special award from Tennis New Zealand. He was a member and past president of Kamo Probus and a charter member of the Kamo Lions Club. He played a key role in the local branch of the New Zealand Society of Accountants, became a life member and was awarded Fellowship Status of the Society.\nLyle retired from full-time practice in 1989 and died unexpectedly in Auckland Hospital in August 2005 from complications following a heart bypass operation. He will be remembered for his sense of humour, infectious laugh, happy easy-going nature, honesty and integrity.",

        "raw_content": "Before you can decide what you will do, you have to decide what you won\u2019t.\nAlbert Camus famously said that our lives are the sum of the choices we make. The same holds true for organizations. Executives and their teams are charged with making momentous decisions that will shape the destiny of their organizations and impact, in some cases, thousands or even millions of people.\nEffective decision-making is, however, fraught with difficulties. The world is constantly changing and the future is uncertain. We will never have perfect information, and we are prone to all manner of biases that can trip us up. But one crucial requirement of decisiveness is frequently overlooked: deciding what not to do.\nThe Latin root of the word decide is caedere, meaning to \u201ccut down\u201d or \u201ckill.\u201d Yet we tend to balk at this act of sacrifice\u200a\u2014\u200aand this failing carries a heavy cost.\nA decision is a choice between alternatives in service of a desired outcome. The reality of limited resources makes this a zero-sum game: every additional thing we do subtracts attention and energy from everything else we do. Choosing a series of actions without any subtraction is just \u201cpiling it on,\u201d which, eventually, will stifle an organization, blurring its focus and sapping its resources.\nA choice is not a choice until we decide what we will give up. We must subtract first, then multiply.\nNature can be our best teacher. Successful adaptation in the natural world occurs through favorable variations that confer a survival advantage on organisms within their niches.\nIn this battle for survival the common red clover has devised a remarkable strategy. Its flower has a unique feature\u200a\u2014\u200aa long, thin funnel leading to the nectar at its base. Only bees, which have very long tongues, can reach the sweet nectar. Other insects are shut out. It\u2019s a strategy based on what this plant has \u201cdecided\u201d not to do.\nThe beauty of this choice is that bees fly farther than other insects, stopping at more flowers and thus increasing the chances of successful pollination. In effect, the red clover has formed an exclusive alliance with bees that ensures that its pollen is distributed more widely than other plants, giving it a crucial competitive advantage.\nThis strategy is not without risk of course, no decision is. What if another plant produces a sweeter-tasting nectar and bees \u201cswitch brands\u201d? What if the bees themselves are outmaneuvered and become extinct? Yet for the red clover this trade-off has captured a significant advantage that no other plant has been able to usurp.\nJust as in nature, human decisions are about creating favorable variations that confer competitive advantage.\nSome years ago a friend of mine, Commander Noel Evans, retired from the British Royal Navy and bought a fruit farm in the Elgin Valley, a lush region known for its orchards, near Cape Town in South Africa.\nIt was planting time, but having spent his whole life at sea, Evans knew nothing about farming. So, he drove up and down the valley and asked his new neighbors for their advice on what he should plant: plums or peaches? The majority agreed: \u201cThere has been a glut of peaches this year. You should plant plums.\u201d\nEvans assessed his three alternatives. He could plant plums as recommended by his neighbors; a mixture of plums and peaches to hedge his bet; or peaches only. His decided on the last.\nWith his neighbors all planting plums, Evans sought to corner what was sure to be an undersupplied market. Sure enough, when the trees matured, Evans was one of the few with a full crop of peaches. By deciding not to plant plums, he became one of the most successful farmers in the valley. His success was driven not by expertise in farming, but by skill in decision-making.\nDeciding what not to do takes courage, particularly in business where it often means turning away from the apparent safety of the herd, and Evans had it in spades.\nSteve Jobs provides another telling example. Nearly universally heralded for turning Apple around and setting it on the road to becoming the most valuable company in the world, Jobs has been hailed by commentators for his creativity, his aesthetic sensibilities, and his keen understanding of the customer. All no doubt played a role, but Walter Isaacson, in his wonderful biography of Jobs, stresses one strength above all others: Jobs\u2019 ability to focus on very few things and exclude the rest.\nJobs would typically charge 15 teams with exploring new opportunities. Three months later each team would eagerly report its recommendations. Jobs would huddle briefly with his top team and deliver his verdict: \u201cWe will do these three things. The other twelve are off the table.\u201d No back burners, no side shows; everyone\u2019s energy would be devoted exclusively to those three things. Even today, Apple has a leaner portfolio than its competitors. It has steadfastly avoided the deadly trap of \u201call things to all people.\u201d\nThe importance of priorities\nAn organization without clear priorities is like a ship without a rudder. But defining those priorities is not as simple as it sounds.\nFirst we must define the outcome we seek, otherwise priorities have no meaning.\nThe crucial outcome in a competitive world is your winning proposition, the unique benefits you will offer your customers that give them a compelling reason to choose you. It is a statement that clarifies how your organization will capture competitive advantage in the marketplace. For Amazon, for example, the winning proposition for its online retail business is, \u201cWe make it easy for people to buy things by offering a wide range of products at great prices with fast delivery.\u201d\nYour priorities then define the crucial steps necessary to achieve that winning proposition.\nAmazon has succeeded brilliantly by focusing the entire organization on its winning proposition and lining their priorities up behind it. Paramount among these priorities is an obsession with making the shopping experience easier and more enjoyable, even at the expense of short-term profits or the share price. In the words of Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos, \u201cDetermine what your customers want and work backwards. If customers don\u2019t want something, it\u2019s gone, even if that means breaking down a once-powerful department.\u201d\nWhen it comes to setting priorities, it\u2019s essential to remember the Pareto principle, more commonly known as the 80/20 rule. The rule tells us that there is an imbalance between inputs and outputs, that the majority of inputs have little effect while a small minority (the \u201cvital few\u201d) make a huge difference. Identifying and leveraging the vital few is essential for success.\nThat raises the question, how many priorities should there be? The common answer is between three and five. Research by psychologist Nelson Cowan suggests that the right number is four (a finding that appeals to reason given that four is the only number between three and five!), but the key is this: if you can\u2019t remember them, you are in trouble.\nThe vital need for simplicity\nThe principle of decision-making as sacrifice serves a greater purpose\u200a\u2014\u200athat of simplicity, for simplicity demands the ability to streamline and subtract. Albert Einstein was renowned for his ability to simplify complex ideas. He admonished, \u201cAny intelligent fool can make things more complex. It takes a touch of genius\u200a\u2014\u200aand a lot of courage\u200a\u2014\u200ato move in the opposite direction.\u201d\nComplexity paralyzes organizations. Simplicity empowers them. A crucial role of leaders is to create simplicity in a world of increasing complexity. If we cannot do that we cannot succeed.\nMarco Pierre White, a British chef who, at the age of 33, became the youngest person ever to receive three Michelin stars, ran a string of successful restaurants under this credo:\nComplexity causes confusion. Confusion creates inconsistency. Inconsistency creates failure.\nThese same rules apply to all organizations, large and small.\nWillie Pietersen was raised in South Africa, and received a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University. After practicing law, he embarked on an international business career. Over a period of twenty years he served as the CEO of multibillion-dollar businesses such as Lever Foods, Seagram USA, Tropicana and Sterling Winthrop\u2019s Consumer Health Group. In 1998, Willie was named Professor of the Practice of Management at the Columbia University Graduate School of Business. He specializes in strategy and the leadership of change, and his methods and ideas, especially Strategic Learning, are widely applied within Columbia\u2019s executive education programs, and also in numerous corporations. He has served as a teacher and advisor to many global companies, including Aviva, Bausch & Lomb, Boeing, Chubb Corp., Deloitte, DePuy, Electrolux, Ericsson, ExxonMobil, Henry Schein, Inc., Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, Novartis, Salt River Project, SAP, UGI, United Nations Federal Credit Union and also the Girl Scouts of the USA.",

        "raw_content": "Did employee file too late to receive workers\u2019 comp benefits?\nThis state requires employees to file for workers\u2019 comp benefits within one year from when they knew or should have known an injury resulted from occupational disease. When exactly does that clock start ticking?\nWilliam Morrish worked for Broadwater Ford in Montana as a mechanic. Morrish had a long history of low-back pain and sciatica. He first received treatment for back pain in 2005. As it worsened, he missed work.\nDocumentation by a physician noted in 2006 that \u201cphysically demanding lifelong work had left him with significant pain in many joints.\u201d\nBetween 2005 and 2012, Morrish saw his chiropractor from five to 12 times per year. Morrish attributed his back pain to the awkward positions he had to get into while working, and heavy lifting.\nIn 2012, Morrish and his chiropractor began having discussions about his ability to continue working as a mechanic due to his back problems. They discussed that working on cement and getting into awkward positions were contributing factors to his back problems. The chiropractor told Morrish that working as a mechanic was causing him to suffer degenerative changes in his lower back.\nOn April 20, 2015, the chiropractor assessed Morrish as possibly having degenerative joint disease or degenerative disc disease and ordered spine x-rays.\nA radiologist diagnosed degenerative disc disease after x-rays were taken on April 16, 2015.\nOn July 31, 2016, Morrish was using a saw at home when he bent over and felt immediate, acute and debilitating pain in his right lower back. The pain was more severe than he\u2019d ever had.\nMorrish never returned to work after that. He saw his general practitioner on Aug. 8, 2016, who told him the incident at home was \u201cthe straw that broke the camel\u2019s back.\u201d She diagnosed Morrish with low-back pain and radiculopathy.\nOn Aug. 10, 2016, he filed a first report of occupational injury with his employer. The employer\u2019s workers\u2019 comp insurer denied the claim.\nThe reason for the denial: Morrish didn\u2019t file his claim for more than a year after his chiropractor diagnosed him with degenerative disc disease.\nMorrish appealed, arguing he could only have known his degenerative disc disease was caused by his work when his doctor told him.\nHis employer said the clock started ticking in April 2015 when his chiropractor attributed his lower-back pain to work.\nThe Montana Workers\u2019 Compensation Court (WCC) noted that the state supreme court had ruled in a previous case that the statute of limitations begins running when a medical professional tells an employee they have an occupational disease.\nThe WCC said in Morrish\u2019s case, that was on April 20, 2015, when his chiropractor informed him of his specific diagnosis of degenerative disc disease. Since he filed for comp in August 2016, his claim was too late.\nMorrish\u2019s workers\u2019 comp claim was denied.\n(William Morrish v. Amtrust Ins.

        "raw_content": "#7 - Basta con la Violencia\n\u200bLocation: 1025 S. Nogalitos at Glass St.\nArtist: Israel \"Izzy\" Rico\nBasta con la Violencia honors Cesar Chavez, a labor leader and civil rights activist who co-founded the United Farm Workers (UFW) union. The mural shows a portrait of Chavez set against the UFW flag (center) and scenes of migrant workers harvesting a vineyard (upper left) and going on strike (upper right). For lead artist Israel Rico, this was his first mural and a journey in self-discovery. Rico told El Placazo, \u201cIt helped me document the history of our people - through my work I was able to learn more about my culture while trying to show it to others.\u201d\n\"Through my work I was able to learn more about my culture while trying to show it to others.\"\n-Izzy Rico\nThe background of the mural is the UFW flag, with Chavez\u2019s cameo in front of the eagle. The upper left corner shows a Mexican-American farm worker in the vineyards and the upper-right corner depicts a UFW march, with signs reading \u201cHUELGA!!\u201d (strike) and \u201cUVAS NO\u201d (no grapes). The flowering vines represent the success of the march. Two chained arms rise above the flames along the mural\u2019s bottom border, holding a banner that reads \u201cViva Cesar Chavez! 1927-1993.\u201d The title of the mural is painted into the mural, with \u201cBasta\u201d on top, \u201ccon la\u201d on the wings of the eagle, and \u201cviolencia\u201d along the bottom border.\nBasta Con La Violencia was Israel Rico\u2019s first public art piece and San Anto Cultural Art\u2019s seventh mural. The project was relatively small and quickly finished, but fit well with San Anto\u2019s emphasis on social justice and with the artist\u2019s own passion for Mexican-American history. Growing up in Texas public schools, Rico did not learn anything about Mexicans in the U.S. beyond the Mexican-American war, the Battle of the Alamo, and the Bracero program. Later in life, Rico was inspired by Hector Galan\u2019s documentary series about the Mexican-American civil rights movement and began to fill in the gaps in the historical record for himself. When Rico first finished the mural, people often asked if it was about the boxer, Julio Cesar Chavez. Rico enjoyed the opportunity to educate viewers about Mexican-American history, especially Chicano rights movements.\nIsrael Rico found out about San Anto Cultural Arts in 1995 when he picked up a copy of El Placazo Community Newspaper in Bar America. He submitted a painting of Emiliano Zapata to the newspaper and when Manny Castillo saw it, he invited Izzy to lead a mural project. Ever the history buff, Rico\u2019s first vision for a mural was a scene from the Battle of Puebla, telling the true story of Cinco de Mayo, Benito Ju\u00e1rez, and General Zaragoza. Although that mural did not pan out, Rico stayed in touch with San Anto until a wall on the side of the bar then called Culero\u2019s became available. Rico completed his first mural, \u201cBasta con la Violencia,\u201d and then went on to paint \u201cLeyendas Aztecas,\u201d one of San Anto\u2019s largest and most recognizable murals. Rico continues to work in San Antonio as an artist who mixes Chicano imagery and pop-culture and his work has been exhibited at Centro Cultural Aztlan, The Fiesta Bed & Breakfast, Museo Alameda, and Clear Channel\u2019s San Antonio outdoor Billboard Digital Art gallery, as well as various local events.

        "title": "How to Maintain a Cheap Home Garden",
        "raw_content": "Maintaining a home garden can be an arduous job, especially if you have no interest in gardening. Lawns need to be mowed, flower gardens weeded and the soil for vegetables patches treated. Other tasks include pruning, planting and painting. For many people these never-ending jobs around the house are more like chores than pleasant activities and if you are one of the many that detests such work, the best thing to do is have someone do it for you. Professional gardeners do fantastic work and your garden will be the envy of your neighbors; but hiring a professional costs money \u2013 often a lot of money.\nIn order to save money on home gardening, consider hiring a non professional; someone who just loves working with nature. Let\u2019s face it, you don\u2019t have to have a degree in botany to look after a garden. Common sense and an interest in gardens will suffice. If expenses are your concern, hiring a retired senior citizen is always a money saving method. older people work well and for a reasonable income each month, they will keep your lawns and gardens in excellent condition. The beauty of hiring older people is not only because they\u2019ll work for reasonable rates, but also because most older people enjoy pottering about in a garden. Ideally, a husband and wife combo is the best \u2013 the wife deals with the flower and vegetables while the husband mows, prunes and weeds.\nAnother idea for saving expenses on garden maintenance is to pay a junior high school student or college student to come to your house on a weekly basis to mow your lawns, dig your gardens and perform other general maintenance. In New Zealand, in days long gone, high school students were often seen cutting their neighbor\u2019s grass and digging out weeds. I realize that these days most students would prefer to sit in front of a TV or sit in front of a computer playing games than sweating over the handle of a mower.\nStill, there are kids, in society, that are are willing to do this work and they\u2019ll do it for a reasonable amount of money. If hiring a student or senior citizen is not something that you want to do, you may consider doing the gardening around your dwelling yourself. Now before you wave your hands in the air and say \u201cAre you crazy? I can\u2019t garden!\u201d, hear me out. There are various gardening groups that you could join to learn the ins and outs of landscaping etc; you may even enjoy it. Within a short amount of time, you\u2019ll know the differences between different manures, when is the best time to cut grass and where to purchase affordable gardening equipment. Indeed you\u2019ll save a great deal of money on gardening maintenance.\nAll the above depends, of course, on whether you\u2019re willing to don a pair of gloves, a hat and some old clothes to do the work. If, in the event, the last thing you want to do in your leisure time is dig and pull in the back garden then you\u2019re going to have to either hire a gardener or move into an apartment. Married couples, for the most part, don\u2019t mind gardening and the work seems to automatically delegate itself. For example, neither person says, \u201cYou mow the lawns and I\u2019ll trim the roses\u201d, he or she naturally takes the job that is fitting their sex. A man will naturally pull the lawn mower out of the garden shed and begin mowing.\nYou can also check out other money saving tips like save money when gardening, how to buy flowers for cheap and save money on wedding flowers.\nThere are probably many other ways and methods with which to save money on home garden maintenance; the above ideas are just a few. Personally, if it were me wanting to cheaply maintain my home garden, I\u2019d do it myself. Why? Because it is fun, healthy and rewarding.\nHow to Save Money When Gardening\nhow to maintain home garden",

Sullivan, the non-executive chairman of the company, followed his father\u2019s advice to achieve such exponential growth.\n\u201cAt the time of my father\u2019s death in 1971, Republic Powdered Metals \u2014 the company he founded and the forerunner to RPM Inc. \u2014 was doing $11 million in sales,\u201d says Sullivan. \u201cWe formed RPM Inc. at that time to act as a holding company, using the philosophy in an acquisition strategy that mirrored his people philosophy: \u2018Go out and find the best companies in the industry, create the atmosphere to keep their management and then let them do their jobs.\u2019 This was very unique in our industry and, I am sure, the reason that our acquisition program has been so successful.\u201d\nUnlike other companies that look to capture synergies through painful cost-reduction initiatives, RPM\u2019s successful mergers and acquisition track record of more than 90 transactions in its corporate history is attributed to its approach of leaving management in place.\n\u201cToday, RPM is organized into six platforms, three each in our consumer and industrial divisions,\u201d says Sullivan. \u201cThis allows us now to do \u2018bolt-on\u2019 acquisitions, where management does not stay with the operation. It also allows us to do acquisitions using our original philosophy.\u201d\nFor employees, this approach has created a motivating and empowering environment. Likewise, companies and their employees join RPM knowing they will have an opportunity to share in the success of a larger, more profitable business. For customers, it created a stable business partner with a broad range, offering of leading industrial and consumer brand-name products and led by seasoned management.\nThis approach to acquisitions has also rewarded shareholders with 55 years of record growth and 29 years of increasing dividends, placing the company in the top 1/2 of 1 percent of all U.S. publicly traded companies in terms of dividend increases.\nSince 1971, RPM shareholders have received an annual compounded rate of return of approximately 16 percent with dividends reinvested. How to reach: RPM, (330) 273-5090\nRPM\u2019s Frank Sullivan builds on his father\u2019s legacy with more than 100 acquisitions\nDealmaking should be a strategic priority in 2019\nGrowth or dividend return?",

For example aluminium, copper, iron, silver, etc. are metals. Sulphur, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, etc. are non-metals.\nPhysical properties of Metals and Non-metals\nMetals Metals are generally hard. For example; iron, copper, silver, gold, aluminium, etc. But some metals, such as mercury, sodium, calcium, etc. are not hard.\nNon-metals Non-metals are not hard. For example phosphorous, sulphur, etc. Diamond is exception, which is a type of non-metal, coal. Diamond is the hardest naturally occurring material.\nMetals Metals are shiny in appearance. For example iron, gold, silver, copper, etc.\nNon-metals Non-metals are dull in appearance. For example coal.\nSonorous:\nMetals - Metals produce ringing sound when beaten, i.e. metals are sonorous. This is the reason that bells are made of metal.\nNon-metals Non-metals do not produce ringing sound when beaten. And thus, non-metals are non-sonorous.\nMetals Metals are ductile in nature. This means metals can be beaten into thin sheets. For example thin sheets of iron are used in making the body of vehicle, ship, roof of thatched house, etc.\nNon-metals Non metals are not ductile. When non-metal is beaten it broken into pieces, thus metals are called brittle. For example when a lump of coal is beaten using a hammer, it is broken into pieces.\nMalleability:\nMetals: Metals can be drawn into wire. This property of metal is called malleability and thus metals are malleable. For example electric wires are made of metals, such as aluminium, copper, etc.\nNon-metals: Non-metals are brittle and thus cannot be drawn into wire.\nMetals: Metals are good conductor of electricity and heat. This is the cause that electric wire and kitchen utensils are made of metals.\nNon-metals: Non-metals do not conduct electricity or heat and they are bad conductor. However, graphite; which is a non-metal; is an exception as it conducts electricity.\nThus, materials which are hard, sonorous, good conductors of electricity and heat, malleable, ductile and have shiny appearance are called metals.\nAnd materials which are not hard, non-sonorous, bad conductors, brittle and dull in appearance are called non-metals.\nMaterials : Metal and Non-metals will be available online in PDF book form soon.

Division of Otolaryngology, University of Cape Town Medical School\nBACKGROUND: Ototoxicity following aminoglycoside treatment for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), is a significant problem. This study documents the incidence of ototoxicity in HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients with MDR-TB and presents clinical guidelines relating to ototoxicity.\nMETHODS: A prospective cohort study of 153 MDR-TB patients with normal hearing and middle ear status at baseline controlling for 6 mitochondrial mutations associated with aminoglycosiderelated ototoxicity, at Brooklyn Chest Hospital in Cape Town. Pure tone audiometry was performed monthly for 3 months to determine hearing loss. HIV status was recorded, as was the presence of 6 mutations in the MT-RNR1 gene.\nRESULTS: Fifty-seven per cent developed high-frequency hearing loss. HIV-positive patients (70%) were more likely to develop hearing loss than HIV-negative patients (42%). Of 115 patients who were genetically screened, none had MT-RNR1 mutations.\nCONCLUSION: Ototoxic hearing loss is common in MDR-TB patients treated with aminoglycosides. HIV-positive patients are at increased risk of ototoxicity. Auditory monitoring and auditory rehabilitation should be an integral part of the package of care of MDR-TB patients.\nMultidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB, i.e. Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to both isoniazid and rifampicin with or without other drug resistance) is an increasing problem, especially in sub-Saharan Africa,1 where the significant increase in MDR-TB has been linked to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic.1\nWorld Health Organization (WHO) guidelines recommend second-line injectable drugs (amikacin, kanamycin, capreomycin) for MDR-TB treatment.2 Patients are on long-term treatment plans including a second-line injectable drug for at least 6 months, or 4 months after sputum culture conversion (i.e. 2 sputum cultures negative 1 month apart). These drugs have significant adverse effects, especially ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Unlike nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity is permanent.3 Risk factors include cumulative drug dose, duration of treatment, bacteraemia, renal or liver failure, and concomitant administration of drugs such as loop diuretics, that have a synergistic ototoxic effect.4\nSome individuals may develop sudden profound sensorineural hearing loss following a single dose of aminoglycoside. This may be associated with a genetic susceptibility caused by the 1555A to G substitution on the mitochondrial 12S rRNA.5 Genetic predisposition may be predicted by identification of mutations in the MT-RNR1 gene.5,6 The literature suggests that mitochondrial mutations in the 12S rRNA are rare (0.09% - 3.96%), depending on the population studied.7,8 Owing to the rarity of these mutations, genetic predisposition may be unlikely to contribute significantly to the excessive risk of ototoxicity seen in developing countries. Other environmental factors may cause patients to be at increased risk. This study was divided into 2 parts of which the first relates to prevalence of the 6 known aminoglycoside-induced deafness mutations in the MT-RNR1 gene in a cohort of MDR-TB patients.5,6 Although these data have been published, they are cited where referred to in the text for completeness. The second part involves prospective hearing evaluation.\nThe high incidence of MDR-TB in South Africa and lack of efficacious alternative drugs mean that increasing numbers of people are at risk of developing aminoglycoside- or polypeptide-related ototoxicity. The lack of audiological monitoring results in ototoxicity going undetected. No data on the incidence of aminoglycoside-induced deafness have been documented for South Africa.\nThe study aimed to: (i) document the incidence and audiological profile of aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss in HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients with MDR-TB; and (ii) formulate guidelines on the use of aminoglycosides in MDR-TB treatment relating to ototoxicity.\nMDR-TB patients were recruited at Brooklyn Chest Hospital (BCH) in Cape Town, a dedicated 349-bed public sector TB hospital, that has received several wards for the management of MDR-TB patients.\nOn admission, all patients whose HIV status is unknown are routinely tested for HIV after informed consent and pre- and post-test counselling. Antiretroviral treatment is initiated when appropriate as part of comprehensive care.\nOnly patients with normal hearing on hospital admission and receiving aminoglycosides as part of their treatment within 3 months of hospitalisation were included. Serum aminoglycoside levels were not recorded. Patients underwent pure tone audiometry (PTA) and tympanometry on admission, then monthly for 3 months. Pure tone audiometry, including air and bone conduction threshold measurements between 250 Hz and 8 000 Hz, was performed in a sound-treated room. Ototoxic threshold shift from the initial baseline audiogram was defined as: (1) \u226520 decibel (dB) decrease at any one test frequency, (2) \u226510 dB decrease at any 2 adjacent frequencies, or (3) loss of response at 3 consecutive frequencies where responses had previously been obtained. The severity of hearing loss was graded as: (1) mild: PTA 26 - 40 dB hearing level (HL), (2) moderate: PTA 41 - 55 dB HL, (3) moderately severe: PTA 56 - 70 dB HL, (4) severe: PTA 71 - 90 dB HL, and (5) profound: PTA >90 dB HL. Age, gender, history of noise exposure, specific aminoglycoside therapy, presence of tinnitus, HIV status and whether patients were on combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) were recorded. Although pre-treatment baseline audiometry could not be performed on patients commenced on aminoglycosides by TB clinics prior to admission, only patients with normal hearing on admission were included. As part of the genetics arm of the study, peripheral blood samples were collected in EDTA-coated tubes from each study participant, and genetic testing was performed to screen for the 6 known aminoglycoside-induced deafness mutations in the MT-RNR1 gene (A1555G, C1494T, A827G, T1291C, T1095C and 961 indelC) using the new SNAPshot technique developed by the Tygerberg Genetics Department. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers and SnapShot primers were specially designed that spanned the entire length of the MT-RNR1 gene. The SnapShot technique can detect the 6 known mutations in a single reaction.5,6\nThe f-test two-sample assuming unequal variances test was used to calculate the difference in the mean ages between HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients with hearing loss at a 95% confidence interval (CI). The odds ratio (OR) (95% CI) was used to calculate the measure of association of HIV and aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss. Fisher's exact test was used to determine whether there were associations between gender and hearing loss, and to calculate whether there was a significant difference between HIV status and the severity of hearing loss.\nThe study was approved by the Committee for Human Research at Stellenbosch University (protocol number: N05/09/165) and the Research Ethics Committee at the University of Cape Town (ref: 443/2005).\nWe studied 153 patients; 2 refused HIV testing and were excluded. The median age was 36 years (range 14 - 70 years). All patients were on long-term treatment plans with second-line injectable agents; 145 (96%) had received kanamycin, 5 (3%) streptomycin and 1 (1%) capreomycin.\nOf 151 patients, 86 (57%) were HIV-positive. All HIV-positive patients were on cART, which comprised a combination of 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) or a protease inhibitor (PI).\nTable 1 summarises hearing loss following 3 months of in-hospital aminoglycoside treatment; 87 (58%) subjects developed hearing loss that involved the higher frequencies (4 000 - 8 000 Hz) in all patients. In 5 (6%) patients with hearing loss, it progressed to involve lower frequencies (500, 1 000, 2 000 and 3 000 Hz); 13 (15%) developed asymmetrical hearing loss, and 11 (13%) complained of tinnitus.\nOf patients who developed hearing loss, 74 (85%) had acquired MDR-TB and had received streptomycin in the preceding 6 months; 13 (15%) had new MDR-TB (i.e. no previous anti-TB treatment or treatment for <1 month). Gender did not correlate with developing hearing loss (p=0.5; Table 1).\nHIV-positive patients (60/86; 70%) were more likely to develop hearing loss than HIV-negative patients (27/65; 42%, OR 3.25, 95% CI 1.65 - 6.37; p<0.001). Fig. 1 shows the age distribution. There was no significant difference between the ages of the two groups. The median age (standard deviation) of HIV-positive patients with sensorineural hearing loss was 34 (9.1) years, while HIV-negative patients had a median age of 40 (13.7) years. There was no association between HIV status and severity of hearing loss (Table 2). Patients who developed ototoxicity were mainly in the 30 - 39-year-old age group, which was representative of the study population's age distribution.\nNone of 115 patients who consented to genetic testing had mitochondrial mutations. Of the 87 patients who developed hearing loss, 38 (44%) refused genetic testing, which makes assessment of the role of mutations in hearing loss equivocal.\nAminoglycoside ototoxicity targets the sensory neuroepithelium of the cochlea.3 Loss of cochlear hair cells results in secondary degeneration of the auditory nerve.3 Outer hair cells are more susceptible than inner hair cells. Labyrinthine injury is usually gradual, progressive, symmetrically bilateral and permanent.3 However, as in our study, asymmetrical losses do occur.3 Ototoxic injury and associated hearing loss may progress for weeks following cessation of aminoglycoside treatment, owing to its long half-life in cochlear tissue.3 The basal region of the cochlea is more susceptible to injury than the apical region. This 'cochleotopic' gradient of susceptibility is expressed as high-frequency hearing loss, which extends to include progressively lower frequencies with more extensive cochlear damage.9 This is consistent with our finding that hearing loss, as documented by PTA, involved mainly higher frequencies (4 000 - 8 000 Hz). In 6% of patients, this progressed to involve lower frequencies (500, 1 000, 2 000 and 3 000 Hz), consequently affecting speech comprehension.\nWithin 3 months of in-hospital aminoglycoside therapy, 57% of patients developed high-frequency hearing loss. Torun ef al. reported ototoxicity in 42% of MDR-TB patients occurring at 4.7+1.7 months of treatment.10 This frequent and early occurrence of ototoxicity may be due to extended exposure to aminoglycosides, as 40% of patients had previously been exposed to streptomycin.10 This result is similar to our study where 85% of patients had previously been exposed to streptomycin, and with findings that showed an association between ototoxicity and cumulative dose of aminoglycoside.4\nNo reported studies on aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity in MDR-TB have included significant numbers of HIV-positive patients. Anti-TB treatment is frequently administered in HIV-positive patients, including MDR-TB treatment. MDR-TB co-infected patients tend to have poorer outcomes and significant mortality in the first few months of MDR-TB treatment.1 Some studies, conducted in HIV-negative MDR-TB patients who were hospitalised and had adverse effects monitored for the duration of treatment, showed no compromise in cure when aminoglycosides were stopped and the treatment regimen changed when patients developed ototoxicity.9,10 Consequently, in our setting, aminoglycosides are generally continued in HIV-positive patients co-infected with MDR-TB, despite the risk of developing hearing loss.\nEvidence suggesting that cART may be ototoxic is mainly based on cross-sectional studies and case reports, and further studies are needed to establish these effects.11 In our study (the first to look at incidence of hearing loss in HIV-positive patients on cART and MDR-TB treatment), HIV-positive patients had a more than 3 times greater risk of developing ototoxic hearing loss.\nOtotoxicity is diagnosed by comparing an initial audiogram -ideally obtained before initiation of ototoxic drugs - with hearing thresholds using serial audiograms, particularly ultra-high frequency thresholds.12 Patients receiving ototoxic antibiotics should be monitored weekly or biweekly.12 Oto-acoustic emissions (OAEs) are more sensitive at detecting auditory dysfunction than high-frequency pure-tone audiometry and have been used to monitor ototoxicity.12 Owing to the long half-life of aminoglycosides in cochlear tissues, patients should be monitored for up to about 6 months following completion of MDR therapy.9 Although hearing loss was detected in 57% of our patients, this figure could be greater if a more sensitive monitoring method such as high-frequency audiometry or OAE had been used, or if patients were followed up until after completion of aminoglycoside therapy. Once patients are discharged from Brooklyn Chest Hospital, they often cannot report back to the hospital for audiometric evaluation; consequently, because of the paucity of audiological services at peripheral clinics, monitoring for hearing loss following discharge from the hospital is non-existent.\nAminoglycoside treatment has commenced in the community owing to insufficient beds at TB hospitals, and hence the need to decentralise audiological services to TB clinics. The serious lack of audiological testing facilities, hearing aids and audiological rehabilitation in the Western Cape, is compromising MDR-TB care for patients who have become deaf as a consequence of ototoxic drug therapy.13\nA study of patients' awareness of ototoxicity with MDR-TB treatment reported that only 20% were aware that their treatment had ototoxic adverse effects, and that no patients on MDR-TB treatment were being monitored for ototoxicity.14 Even though more than half of the patients reported auditory symptoms since the commencement of treatment, none had been referred to an audiologist or otolaryngologist for management, despite almost half of them reporting that these symptoms affected their daily lives.14\nWhen monitoring for ototoxicity, the aim is to detect hearing loss before it affects speech frequencies and the patient develops a communication problem. The treatment regimen can then be changed by either replacing the ototoxic drug or stopping it. MDR-TB is a life-threatening disease, and in most cases it may not be possible to safely alter the treatment without compromising cure of the patient. However, maintaining communication remains a major quality-of-life issue for patients. Therefore, the purpose of monitoring for ototoxicity is to assist the patient with communication strategies or amplification in the form of hearing aids when hearing loss occurs; it may also include tinnitus counselling. Managing MDR-TB patients with a holistic approach requires screening and monitoring for ototoxicity as part of the package of care of MDR-TB and possibly integration into national TB control programmes.\nA high rate of hearing loss in patients on aminoglycoside-containing MDR-TB treatment was shown. The report is the first to show an association between HIV infection and ototoxicity in patients on MDR-TB treatment. Further studies are required to elucidate the mechanism of increased ototoxicity in HIV-positive patients. Hearing loss is likely to increase, given the high prevalence of HIV infection in South Africa, and information regarding possible hearing loss should be included as part of informed consent before commencing aminoglycoside therapy.\nThis study was funded by the South African Society of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery and Division of Molecular Biology and Human Genetics, the Medical Research Council, and Stellenbosch University.

        "raw_content": "Ed Love Celebration at Baker's\nThe celebration of the career of Ed Love, Detroit's favorite jazz DJ, at Baker's on October 13, was a wonderful event on many counts. SEMJA's program attracted an almost full house, the music by Urban Transport was inspired, the food and service was congenial, and above all, the object of everyone's affection that afternoon seemed to really enjoy himself, surrounded by family and friends.\nThings got started with a long set by Urban Transport, which is co-lead by Vincent Chandler (trb), Sean Dobbins (b), and Dean Moore (as). This afternoon Rick Roe played piano and Nick Calandro from Flint handled the bass duties. \"Detroit Is Live\" was their first selection, followed by the song that they speculated clinched the winning spot in the competition for a slot in this year's Detroit Jazz Festival: \"Urban Transport.\" This is a very talented band with spirited soloists, maybe in particular Vincent Chandler, who is the veteran in this youthful group. Dobbins' drumming is fiery and constantly getting better, and Moore pulled off several soulful alto solos. Roe was as elegant and swinging as he always is and Nick Calandro, a new acquaintance for me, provided a really solid foundation behind the others.\nVincent Chandler was one of the first to get a chance to pay tribute to Ed Love, thanking him for \"playing hip music on the radio when I was growing up.\" Jim Gallert, former colleague of Love at WDET, and MC for the night, gave an articulate, well researched, and spirited speech honoring Love. He summarized Love's contributions as follows \"he was not a musician, but he spread the sound through the radio waves.\" Actually, Love studied trumpet through junior college, but eventually decided radio would be his forte. He started out as a go-fer in a K.C. radio station, worked for the AFRS in the Far East during the Korean war, then went on to stations in West Virginia, Philadelphia, and Boston. In the mid-fifties he contacted Detroit radio man George White after hearing him on the air, but Love did not move here until 1960. He spent 17 years with Bell Broadcasting, also worked Channel 7 TV, and WQRS. In 1983 he was dismissed by the latter and picked up by WDET (FM 101.9) where he still has his nightly show weekdays. A year after coming to town he also organized the \"Ed Love Jazz Workshop\" in cooperation with Lebaron Taylor. His energies also went into organizing a concert series at the DIA and his day-job, a thirty-five stint as a mail carrier!\nSEMJA Board President Ron Brooks made the official pronouncement of Ed Love as this year's recipient of the SEMJA Award, for his significant contributions to the jazz-life of Detroit. In response, Love gave a heartfelt and charming thanks to everyone present, particulary his wife Martha and twin daughters. Love invited Frank Malfitano from Music Hall and the Ford Detroit International Jazz Festival on stage, who pronounced that \"even if Ed is not a musician, he's one of the greatest players.\" A soaring musical tribute in song, Horace Silver's \"Doodlin'\", followed from the wonderful bebop trio of Joan Crawford, Ping Spells, and Shirley Hayden.\nA number of musicians participated in a jam session to end the festivities, starting with \"Blue Monk\" featuring powerful tenorist Allen Barnes and Detroit's legendary bassist Will Austin. The final tribute of the night was a short poem from Ed Love's friend Elizabeth, which ended as follows: \"Jazz Is Love and Love Is Jazz.\" It seemed everyone present said \"Amen\" to that sentiment.\nFrom Top: Ed Love accepting the 2002 SEMJA Award;\nSEMJA Board President Ron Brooks with Love;\nTrio Joan Crawford, Ping Spells and Shirley Hayden",

        "raw_content": "2nd and 3rd Grade Mandarin Immersion Spots Available for Fall 2009\nJose Ortega Elementary School, in the Ingleside neighborhood, has several openings in its 2nd grade Mandarin Immersion program for Fall 2009.\nStarr King Elementary School, on top of Potrero hill, has several openings in its 3rd grade Mandarin Immersion program for Fall 2009.\nThis would be an excellent opportunity for children who come from families where Mandarin is spoken in the home, or who have been attending Chinese school.\nThere may also be a limited number of first grade (at Jose Ortega) and first and second grade (at Starr King) slots available as well.\nChildren joining in immersion programs after first grade will be tested for language competency by the San Francisco Unified School District's Educational Placement Office.\nIf you have questions about the Mandarin Immersion Program, feel free to contact Beth Weise, the president of the Mandarin Immersion Parents Council at weise@well.com. For information about testing in, you'll need to contact the District's Educational Placement Center.\nEh? I thought immersion programs were closed to new entrants after 1st grade\nNot if you speak the target language at an appropriate level.\nMandarin Immersion Parents March 13, 2009 at 10:42 AM\nStarr King certainly had a number of Chinese American International School parents touring this year looking at 1,2 and 3rd grade slots.\nIt will be very interesting to see how CAIS students fare at Starr King, should they enroll.\nOn the one hand, CAIS is well-established and gets its pick of students through a rigorous admissions process.\nOn the other hand, Starr King kids get more hours of Mandarin each day.\nM March 14, 2009 at 12:12 PM\nWe're a CAIS family struggling to pay the tuition (even with financial aid). Mandarin immersion didn't exist when our older child started CAIS, and he didn't get into AFY or WP, so we went with CAIS... and would love to stay, except for the money part.\nMy daughter took the SFUSD Mandarin language proficiency test a few weeks ago (after we applied by the deadline for the first round), and scored 85% (?) fluent. (I don't have the results with me at the moment, so I'm not sure of the exact score ... and I'm not really sure what the results mean, except she is fluent enough to be accepted into the MI program for 2nd grade- if she is successful in the lottery.) Luckily, they were able to give the test using \"traditional\" characters, since that's what she has been learning.\n10:21, I also wonder how she would do compared to kids who've been experiencing 80-90% immersion vs. the 50% at CAIS. On the other hand, kids can join the Mandarin classes at Starr King and Ortega in 1st grade (with no prior Mandarin experience), whereas new kids enrolling in CAIS for 1st grade have to demonstrate a certain level of proficiency in Mandarin before being admitted.... so hopefully, my daughter will know as much after two years @ 50% per school day as the kids who have only been in MI for one year @ 80-90% per day. (Also, CAIS is one extra hour per day... but I'm not sure how much of that is additional Mandarin...) I was also worried about switching from \"traditional\" to \"simplified,\" but the MI teachers didn't think that should be a problem. (Easier than the reverse, I guess!)\nWe're not sure how this will all play out, should our daughter \"win\" in the lottery, since we also have to see where my son gets in (with close proximity to either before or after-school Mandarin programs among our highest priorities). They both LOVE (and REALLY want to stay at) CAIS, so if we could somehow work out the financial part, that would be our choice. (Unfortunately, I think we would need to win a different kind of lottery for that to happen!)\nSK and Ortega both have great programs, and it's fantastic that MI options have expanded so much in such a short time. (Thanks in very large part to some extremely dedicated parents!)\nTrying to determine what else Jose Ortega has to offer if I didn't get into the immersion program. It was not on my list of schools. Please help me get excited about this school. My daughter will be entering k and was accepted there but it wasn't a choice for us.\nVery depressed and devasated.\n9:51, somewhere in the long list of posts related to Round 1 letters, Kate (Amy) of this blog posted a thoughtful piece on Jose Ortega GE. I think it is around post 400-410. There are also several invitations to attend a welcome/informational event at the school one morning. Sounds like there are good things going on, and plenty of parents to talk to about it. I encourage you to check it out.",

        "raw_content": "Johannes Dietlein 1767 - 1847\nReport by Shaun Griffiths - \u201cThe Life and Times of Johannes Datlen\u201d\nOriginated November 1999\nThis article is intended to be a celebration of the life and times of the man we know as Adam Datlen. The earliest known ancestor of the Datlen line who built a new life for himself and his family in England and the forefather of all known Datlen's in the world today. This presentation is based on my own assumptions and interpretations of the known facts from various sources including my own research and the Datlen Family Tree Book, first edition, Andy R Datlen. I have indicated, where appropriate, those statements which are factual and those which are based on assumption. I will refer to our subject as Johannes throughout this text in order to avoid confusion with his sons named Adam.\nHIS BIRTH : 1767\nThe death[1] and burial[2] records for Johannes tells us that he was 80 years old when he died in 1847. Although his age at death may not be accurate, we can calculate his approximate birth date to be 1767.\nHIS NAME : JOHANNES DIETLIEN\nThe earliest known record of Johannes' existence is the baptism record of his son, Adam William (St Mary's Church, Chatham, 1801)[3]. It is this document that tells us his original name was Johannes. His surname is less straight-forward. His children's baptism records all give different spellings for their surname. An explanation for this could be that the registrars, faced with Johannes' foreign accent, guessed the spelling of his surname. Johannes himself spelt his name Dietlein or Dietlien. This is evident from the signature he left on his certificate of marriage to Susannah Hammond in 1836[4].\nExamples of this name can be traced back to well before the 1800's and it is still in use today. At around the same time his sons were signing their names as Datlen, this may have been an attempt at anglizising the name rather than being the true spelling. This would explain why the Datlen lineage is so unique today.\nHIS NATIONALITY : AUSTRIAN, GERMAN\nWe know that Johannes was foreign born from the 1841 census return[5]. Given his name and taking into account the political situation of Europe at the turn of the century I would suggest that Johannes was Austrian or possibly German (Germany did not exist as a country at this time but as a number of smaller states). A search on the Internet of the name Dietlein confirms a German connection[6] and past research has also connected the Datlen name to Germany.\nHIS MARRIAGE : c1790 - 1800\nBy studying the baptism records for Johannes' children we learn that he was married to Phoebe[3]. But what about the date of their marriage? If we assume that they were married a year or so before the birth of their first child Adam William in 1801 then Johannes would have been about 33 when he married Phoebe. We could speculate that they married younger, say aged 25 but that would leave an eight year period before the birth of Adam. Is it possible that the couple had more children before Adam?. There is no evidence of this in the Chatham registers nor is there any record of marriage between Johannes and Phoebe. They may have married and had a couple of children in their country of origin or possibly elsewhere in England prior to settling in Chatham.\nHIS EMIGRATION TO ENGLAND : c1800\nBased on the evidence I would speculate that Johannes (and possibly his wife and several children) emigrated to England about or before 1800. The Napoleonic wars were raging across Europe at this time. \"Over population, lack of work opportunities, war and political upheaval in Europe contributed to masses of Europeans leaving their homeland for a new life in England. Some settled for only a few years before travelling on to America, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, etc., and some for generations.\"\nGreat Britain had joined with Ireland to form the United Kingdom, and the dawn of the Industrial Revolution brought new opportunites for employment. \"Many came over to work in the sugar baking industry in East London.\"It was the 1851 census that told us that the sons of Johannes and Phoebe were born in Chatham, Kent, England in the early 1800's[5]. They were probably directed here with the promise of work in the town's famous docks. As mentioned earlier, they could have stayed in Dover or elsewhere before settling in Chatham.\nHIS CHILDREN : 1801 - 1811\nThe first known child of Johannes and Phoebe was Adam William born in Chatham in 1801[3]. Unfortunately he died before his first birthday[7]. Following what must have been tradition back then, the second son born in 1804 assumed the same name of his deceased brother. (Adam Datlen went on to name his first born son William Adam). Joseph was born in 1806, Charlotte in 1808 and Robert in 1811[3].\nHIS NAME CHANGE TO ADAM : 1802\nThe death record for Adam William in 1802 names his father as Adam as does his other children's baptism records indicating that Johannes changed his name to Adam at some time between 1801 and 1802.\nPHOEBE DIES : 1813\nThe last record of the family's life in Chatham is the entry of death for Phoebe in 1813[7]. This date coincides with the possible birth of their next child and it could be that Phoebe died in child-birth.\nTHE DOVER YEARS : 1827\nJohannes lived in Chatham for at most 13 years following the death of his wife Phoebe. We do not hear from the Datlen family again until the marriage of his sons Adam, to Ann Marlow in Dover, 1827[3] and Robert, married Mary Ann Willis in Dover, 1831[3].There was always a suggestion that Johannes was married to Martha[5]. She was also presumed to have been the mother of his children but we know now this was not so. The only reference to Martha Datlen is her burial record, Dover 1835 aged 63 putting her year of birth at about 1772[2]. Although there is no direct evidence that Johannes was married to Martha there is nothing to suggest otherwise. (He had to find something to occupy his time!) Adam & Robert were prolifically producing offspring, over 20 children between them. The whereabouts at this time of Joseph and Charlotte are unknown. In November 1836 Johannes married Susannah Hammond[4].\nHIS DEATH : 1847\nJohannes Died of old age on the 12 of March 1847 aged 80 years[1]. His occupation was listed as Grocer. He was buried at St James's Church, Dover[2] which now lies in ruin, the graveyard turned into a leisure centre car park. When I last checked Johannes' remains were buried beneath a white Ford transit van parked in bay 35 ;-)\nThere is still quite a bit of research that can be done to complete our picture of the early Datlens. Here I have outlined what I reckon can still be discovered by searching known archives and registers. What I consider to be the Holy Grail in the Datlen story is the country of origin for Johannes. The public records office at Kew, London contains the Home Office Denization and Naturalisation papers and correspondence 1789-1871 ref: HO1. If we could find an entry for Johannes then we could learn so much. Not only from where he came, but where he was going and who travelled with him. There are also various manuscripts, documents and registers in Maidstone Record Office which may give us further clues into Johannes history.\nIf we discover that Johannes arrived in England and lived in a place prior to Chatham then we may be able to check the parish registers for that town. We would be looking for a record of marriage between Johannes and Phoebe and any evidence that they had children before Adam William. A further visit to Canterbury Cathedral would be worth while. It would be interesting to find the marriage record between Johannes and Martha. Also I would like to know the fate of Johannes' other children Charlotte and Joseph. Maybe they too got married and raised families in Dover.

        "raw_content": "Member States\u2019 Reject Solar Trade Duties in an Historic Day for EU Trade Policy\nBrussels, 26 January 2017 \u2013 Today in a meeting of the EU Member States trade experts, the European Commission\u2019s proposal to extend trade measures on solar panels and cells imported from China, Taiwan and Malaysia was defeated. More than half the Member States of the EU voted against extending the measures and instead for the first time in history the proposal of the Commission is subject to an appeal from the Member States. This process, whilst never used before, is likely to put increased pressure on DG Trade to change their position.\nOliver Schaefer, President of SolarPower Europe stated \u2018We have been campaigning for the end of these trade measures for the last 18 months, and are pleased that the Member States have sent a strong rebuke to DG Trade for not taking account of the interests of the European solar industry. We hope that the Commission will now review their proposal and through the appeal process substantially revise their approach.\u2019\nJames Watson, CEO of SolarPower Europe, commented \u2018We must thank all the European solar associations, who took part in achieving this historic result. This decision of the Member States reminds DG Trade that they must be more considerate of the solar jobs and investments that they have threatened across the EU with a proposal to extend these measures.\u2019\nKristina Thoring, Political Communications Advisor added \u2018We will now work with the Member States to find a suitable compromise to remove the measures as soon as possible, so that we can have a dynamic and growing solar sector in Europe once again.\u2019\nThe European Commission must now consider what changes they need to make to their proposal before facing another vote by the Member States in a couple of weeks.",

However, he said that fiscal decentralization requires an authorizing environment to work such as Functional democracy, programmatic style of government, Complimentary political institutions, state autonomy and free mobility. He said that in the case of Solomon Islands, there is lack of compliance in most of the environment.",

        "raw_content": "TIFF 2018: Vox Lux\nNatalie Portman in Vox Lux. Courtesy of TIFF.\nLed by one of the best performances of Natalie Portman\u2019s career, Vox Lux follows one woman as she sings her way into stardom and beyond.\nWhen we first meet her in 1999, Celeste (Raffey Cassidy, as the younger version) is just like any ordinary student in school. This is until one student, Colin, becomes very aggressive and practically shoots the entire class. While Celeste lives, she suffers from an awful spinal injury as a result.\nAs Celeste begins to recover, she sings at a memorial service for the victims. All it takes is one song to give her a national spotlight as record labels come calling. She does this with his sister, Eleanor (Stacy Martin), and manager (Jude Law). Things are going great until she catches the two of them in the act. The latter of which just happens to take place during the worst attack on American soil. Shortly thereafter, the film jumps ahead to 2017.\nThis is when we meet Celeste (Natalie Portman) in her early 30s. She\u2019s a mother to Albertine (Raffey Cassidy, in a dual role). We can see how Celeste\u2019s celebrity has taken a toll on her daughter but also herself. As with anyone, Celeste has hit ups and downs. She\u2019s return to her hometown to launch a sixth album, Vox Lux, but there are questions about canceling the show. This is because of a terrorist attack where the shooters are dressed in masks similar to an earlier music video.\nIn exploring the mother-daughter relationship, writer-director Brady Corbet shows the psychological toll that Celeste suffers as a result of fame. It can get pretty brutal to say the least. It shows a different side of Portman than we\u2019ve ever seen on screen, including her Oscar-winning role in Black Swan. A meal at a restaurant with her daughter should be simple, right? When the manager asks her for a photo, things get way out of hand. This is what fame has done to Celeste. For someone as famous as her, she should have at least had some kind of security join them instead of going in without any at all.\nEven though Natalie Portman is the first-billed actor, she doesn\u2019t show up for a good hour into the film. This is because the film focuses on the younger Celeste during the first hour. When Portman does show up, she is as good as she\u2019s ever been! I don\u2019t know where I\u2019d rank it in her filmography but it\u2019s there with her performances in Jackie and Black Swan. In watching how Celeste behaves, I can\u2019t help but think that Corbet was inspired by a long-ago appearance on Saturday Night Live, much less the sequel.\nThe film benefits from Sia\u2019s original songs in addition to Scott Walker\u2019s score\u2013not that Scott Walker! The film\u2019s third act and climax alone may just be one of 2018\u2019s cinematic achievements. Where Teen Spirit was the crowd-pleaser playing Toronto, Vox Lux is the film that shows us all the guts and glory that come with fame.\nWe can view Vox Lux as a way of showing how the media turns celebrities into cultish figures. Can you imagine a film like this with Taylor Swift front-and-center? I\u2019m honestly having a hard time doing so.\nCAST: Natalie Portman, Jude Law, Stacy Martin, Jennifer Ehle, and Raffey Cassidy\nVox Lux held its North American premiere during the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival in the Special Presentations program.\nJennifer Ehle, Jude Law, Natalie Portman, Raffey Cassidy, Stacy Martin, Toronto International Film Festival, Vox Lux\nPrevious Post Previous post: TIFF 2018: Teen Spirit\nNext Post Next post: TIFF 2018: Red Joan falls short",

Eilis lives in a boarding home run by Mrs. Kehoe (Julie Walters) and becomes desperately homesick. She finds comfort with Father Flood, the catholic priest who sponsored her trip to the U.S. She also has trouble fitting into her job at a pricy department store until she meets a nice young Italian man named Tony (Emory Cohen) at a dance. The pair hits it off, and romance ensues.\nEilis\u2019 happiness is interrupted by a death in the family, which requires her to return to Ireland. Tony worries that she may never return. One back in her homeland, Eilis reunites with old friends and meets a handsome, wealthy man named Jim (Domhnall Gleeson), who is smitten with her. Torn between the love of her life in New York and her family, Eilis must decide whether to stay with Jim or go back to Tony.\nBrooklyn is a beautiful film, and one of the best of the year. There are a lot of factors that make the movie so appealing, not the least of which is Saoirse Ronan\u2019s excellent and moving performance. Other factors include an superb script adaptation of Colm T\u00f3ib\u00edn\u2019s novel by Nick Hornby, beautiful art direction that transports the audience convincingly to 1950s New York City and compelling cinematography.\nAn outstanding supporting cast also helps Brooklyn stand out, especially the performances by Julie Walters and Jim Broadbent.\nIt\u2019s common to make romance films a little cheesy, but it\u2019s clear that director John Crowley stayed away from period romance clich\u00e9s to transform Brooklyn into a classic cinematic experience. I highly recommend it.\nBrooklyn Trailer\nArts+Entertainment movies movie reviews Romance Ireland New York City",

        "raw_content": "Back to Archived blog posts. An evil thirst for blood\nPia de Solenni brings a disgusting radio segment to our attention: aradio talk show host in Washington, D.C. recently had a \"contest\" where listeners could call in and brag about the abortions they have had or participated in.\nThe bloodthirstiness of many \"pro-choice\" folks is shocking. This past January, a friend of mine spoke with three women who were counter-protesting the 2005 Rally for Life here in Bloomington, Indiana. The protesters were bearing their midriffs in sub-zero temperatures. They had \"my body, my choice\" written on their stomachs.\nOne of the abortion-rights advocates (predictably) asked my friend if she ate meat. The conversation that followed ended when one of the midriff-bearing protesters told my friend \"I would eat babies if I could.\" When asked why, she said \"Just to piss you off.\" At this point, my friend walked back across the street to the rally, convinced that there was no longer anything productive that could come of the conversation.\nWhy the enthusiasm for abortion? Why does abortion become something to celebrate for some supporters of abortion rights? Even pro-abortion extremists like disgraced ex-President Bill Clinton and Senator John Kerry say that abortion should be safe, legal and rare. I think the answer is that most people instinctively know that abortion is the destruction of an innocent human life. (Most abortions take place when the baby looks like the picture above.) The guilt of being associated with murder poisons the soul.\nGod's word provides an insight into how this happens. \"And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.\" Romans 1:28.",

        "raw_content": "What is the simplest way of distinguishing those who have hope and those who do not? I believe it has to do with how we view death and loved one who have died. Do we refer to them in the past tense or in the present tense?\nWhen Jesus was tested by the Sadducees in Mark 12 about the resurrection, Jesus replied,\n\u201cAre you not in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God? When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. Now about the dead rising\u2014have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the account of the burning bush, how God said to him, \u2018I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob\u2019? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!\u201d (Mark 12:24-27)\nNotice Jesus refers to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the present tense, because they are living even though they had died two thousand years before. This is the great divide. The apostle Paul elaborates on this in his letter to the Thessalonians I referred to above,\n\u201cFor we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord\u2019s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words.\u201d (1 Thessalonians 4:14-18)\nNotice Paul refers to those who have died in the faith of Christ in the present tense. He says they are asleep and one day will return with Jesus so that we will be together with Jesus for ever. If we put our trust in Jesus, this is our hope. This gives us courage to persevere when life gets tough, especially when bereavement comes.\nOne of the greatest and most precious promises Jesus ever made was spoken at the graveside of his friend Lazarus.\n\u201cI am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?\u201d (John 11:25-26)\nDo you believe this? One way to know whether you believe or not is to reflect on whether you still refer to loved ones who have died in the past tense or the present tense? This is the great divide, the final frontier.\n\u2190 Jesus is the New Moses Feeling God\u2019s Pleasure \u2192",

        "title": "Aseptic Technology - Our Story - Steuben Foods",
        "raw_content": "Queens. 1920s.\nWe must rewind to the 1920s. Brothers Max and Arthur Schwartz were the children of Eastern European immigrants, but also the very symbol of the American Dream. They grew-up on a farm in the Middle Village area of Queens, in an almost unimaginable time when New York City still had farms. This particular farm \u2013 and, by extension, the entire Steuben story \u2013 began with seven cows, which Max and Arthur\u2019s father had purchased and stewarded to Queens from Manhattan by foot. One can imagine, with some romanticism, the little herd traversing the newly constructed Williamsburg Bridge.\nIn the 1920s, the brothers began hand-bottling the milk in their father\u2019s milk house and delivering as far as the Scandinavian neighborhoods of Brooklyn. The vehicle \u2013 a single delivery truck filled with ice blocks \u2013 remains perhaps the most poignant symbol of the Elmhurst-Steuben heritage. This is precisely for the wonderful unlikelihood that followed.\nBy 1940, the brothers had graduated to a manufacturing facility in Jamaica, Queens. For its increased scale, the Elmhurst venture had lost little of its humility. Where there had been a single delivery truck years earlier, there was now a single building, used to fill glass bottles. This is in keeping with the spirit of our story. It is safe to say that the Schwartz Family has never forgotten where it came from; and for this reason has always known where it is going. Where it was going was in the direction of success, almost like destiny.\nAs the years passed, an unmistakable bustle began to build around Elmhurst Dairy; one that eventually came to encompass the entire New York metropolitan area \u2013 when all of the other dairies closed. In 1970, there were thirty. Today there is only one.\nEqually symbolic, though, are the numerical proliferations associated with Elmhurst\u2019s growth. That single delivery vehicle is now a fleet of 300 vendor-owned trucks, tracking in and out of Jamaica. The single building, meanwhile, has multiplied to six.\nIndeed, Elmhurst became so successful that it multiplied its geography, also. It was in Prattsburg \u2013 significantly located in Steuben County \u2013 that the company established its Western New York satellite operation. This cheese plant soon began churning out the most delicious of yogurt, including the legendary LeShake.\nIt was as though to predict the \u201cyogurt revolution\u201d that has since overtaken the state; and Elmhurst was right there at the forefront. A few took notice, including a company called Kellogg\u2019s. It was in the late 1970s that the multinational approached Elmhurst\u2019s heir, Henry Schwartz, with a proposal for a joint venture. The resulting company, named Steuben Foods after the county of origin, was incorporated in 1980.\nThe Kellogg\u2019s agreement was a massive success, resulting in Whitney\u2019s, which many still consider the best yogurt they have ever tasted. Steuben Foods soon outgrew itself trying to keep pace with a national market. So, Mr. Schwartz went looking for a new home.\nElma. 1985.\nIt was in Elma, a few miles outside of Buffalo, that Mr. Schwartz encountered the massive shell of a Western Electric plant that had been built and then vacated. A visionary by nature, he liked that it had more square footage than he might ever be able to fill. (Anyone who knows Henry will not be at all surprised that he has almost filled it; another of the many great multiplications that have defined Steuben\u2019s history and heritage.)\nThe current Elma facility opened in 1985. There remain a few bright, almost Technicolor, photographs of family and friends parading through its now time-honored doors for the first time. No one quite knew the future then; only that there was a future. There was optimism in the crystalline sky, and the glint of sunlight upon the stainless steel silos, that day.\nThen it all came to fruition \u2013 like the unraveling of a riddle \u2013 in 1991. A few pudding and yogurt ventures later, Steuben had gone aseptic.\nAn Aseptic Movement\nAseptic technology was a European taste that defied American logic \u2013 albeit in the most fascinating way. One could now take a milk carton, place it on the counter, open it months later, and consume perfectly fresh product. It was too brilliant not to work; it only required execution. In operating this challenging technology, Steuben proved that it could not only \u201cexecute\u201d; it could break entirely new ground in process.\nThis \u2013 innovation and excellence in change \u2013 has been Steuben Foods\u2019 identity ever since. We have broadened upon the aseptic idea, mastering new shapes and sizes, packages and products \u2013 almost in a continuous stream. The result is a 15-plus line, 500,000-square foot operation manufacturing everything from cartons to bottles; broths to nutraceuticals.\nElma. Tomorrow.\nThe world doesn\u2019t stop, so neither can we. Innovation is always chasing in order to keep ahead. So, we are working diligently, as you read this, on new things: new products, new technologies, new values.\nThus, we reach an endpoint that is certainly not the end; of a story, perhaps beyond the imagination, but certainly not the aspiration, of a man ushering seven cows across Williamsburg Bridge; and two brothers circulating Queens and Brooklyn in their delivery truck.",

They were married at St Mary\u2019s Church in Maryport and held their reception at New House Farm, Lorton. It\u2019s a venue I\u2019ve got to know quite well this year and one I hope visit more often in future. We had a quick drive down to Crummock Water so I could take some portraits of the couple surrounded by the Lake District fells. After the speeches they had the wedding breakfast in the large barn at New House Farm and a live band for the evening. They put in such a lot of effort to make their day special and it paid off. Everyone, including me, had a wonderful time.\nThank you, Paige + Adam, for booking me as your photographer. It was a real pleasure to spend time with you and I wish you a long, happy and healthy future together.\nTags: New House Farm",

        "raw_content": "December 5th, 2013 \u2022 Posted by Email Marketing \u2022 Permalink\nIf the words \"ho ho ho\" bring to mind a delicious snack cake wrapped in foil rather than Jolly Old Saint Nick, you're not alone. We know what the holidays can do to our waistlines so we're continually looking for a new, better way to eat nutritiously while the rest of the world enjoys a sugar high -- then crashes.\nIt is rare to get through the holidays without hearing someone complain about the weight they've gained, exercise they've missed out on, or horrible food choices they made during the season. It does not have to be the case for you, though. There are lots of things you can do to stay on track nutritionally, while still loving every moment of the holidays.\nAn interesting study offers good news and bad news regarding holiday weight gain. According to The New England Journal of Medicine, reports suggesting that the average American gains 7 to 10 pounds of weight between Thanksgiving and Christmas are hogwash. Several recent studies have shown that the average person gains one pound of weight over the holidays. That's the good news.\nThe bad news is that most people don't ever lose that extra pound. Because the average adult gains one or two pounds per year, it means that a lot of that poundage is picked up during the holiday season.\nSo, what to do? How can you plan for a holiday season that includes lots of nutritious food to give you energy and leaves you with absolutely no weight gain?\nWho among us is not guilty of filling the pantry with goodies during the holiday season? It's as much a custom as watching It's a Wonderful Life or A Christmas Story. It's fine to have those once-a-year snacks available, but balance it out by having nutritious food around, too. Fill containers in your fridge with fresh fruit to snack on and keep pita chips and pretzels in the cupboard for when you're craving something salty. Mix it up. When you're in the mood for something not-so-healthy (but utterly delectable) allow yourself to have a small amount, satisfying your real hunger with healthy alternatives.\nLighten up on the Appetizers\nHere's our theory as to why appetizers are always so darn delicious: they are generally full of fat and dense with calories. If you're hosting or attending a party, focus on the appetizers with the most nutritional value. Shrimp cocktail, veggies with low-fat dip, and fresh fruit are all delicious and give you something to munch on while working the room.\nDo the Old Switcheroo\nIt's easy to create the perfect holiday meal while saving calories and fat. Non-fat yogurt or applesauce can be substituted when a recipe calls for oil in baked goods. Light cream cheese, low-fat milk, and chicken stock all add flavor to a dish without cramming it full of fat and calories. Make it a game of figuring out ways to make old, traditional dishes with healthier ingredients.\nWe hear it so often and it's such boring advice that we're hesitant to include it, but the truth is, we're often really dehydrated when we may feel as though we're hungry. We run around trying to get to this holiday program and picking up that relative at the airport, and frankly, we forget to drink enough water to satisfying our bodies. When it comes to water, our bodies rebel in any number of ways when we're lacking in H2O. We become tired, cranky, and begin to believe that the only thing that's going to make us feel better is reaching for a snack. It's not the snack our bodies crave; it's water.\nOne way to prevent stress-related eating is to find ways during the holiday season to relax and be at peace with your body. Take a long walk with the kids or a friend, put a few minutes aside each day to simply sit quietly, or schedule a relaxing treatment with us -- anything that allows you to unwind is especially welcome this time of year.",

        "raw_content": "As I prepare to leave the land of the rising sun, it seems to follow that I should give my \u00a5200 on Japan.\nRather than beat around the bamboo, I'll be straight up with you: Japan is a place of impossibly incomprehensible contradictions, while simultaneously representing a completely different concept of functional development.\nFrom my Western perspective, I've come to learn what development and progress looks like through that lens. Whether you see the United States as a benevolent promoter of democracy and development, or something more sinister, it is that brand of development - individualism, economic expansion, improved quality of life, equality - of which we might more closely identify with and in turn be able to identify. It is this brand of development which is promoted and to which developing countries aspire.\nJapan is one of two developed countries in Asia (according to the CIA World Factbook, the other being South Korea - but even the United Nations doesn't consider South Korea on the developed countries list). And given the close relationship between Japan and the US following World War II, you might expect that over the course of Japan's development it would appear quite Western.\nAnd that's why coming to Japan can be confronting for Westerners, especially for those expecting to find a small Western oasis in amongst the seeming chaos of China's rapid growth and the disorganisation of South-East Asia.\nInstead, Japan does development in its own way. And this is where the paradoxes and contractions start. Japan is the centre of technological development, yet almost everyone still owns a flip phone. Japan is the home of the shinkansen (bullet train) yet few drive cars and in fact most ride bicycles everywhere. For a place known for technological advancements and inventions, it baffles me that most places only accept cash, something particularly frustrating to wrap your head around having grown accustomed to paywave-ing pretty much every purchase.\nJapanese cities are also different - they don't really break areas down into a 'central business districts', industrial areas and suburbia. Instead, these elements intermingle in a hodgepodge of impossibly narrow streets dotted with vending machines, car parks and hairdressers (there are seriously so many hairdressers in Hiroshima it is amazing that they are all still in business). Naturally, there are more residential areas the further away from the city 'centre', but the tangle of narrow streets continues in a somewhat typical Japanese way - something impossible to think of in the West. This might be a long bow to draw, but there is something quite 'Asian' about this way of organising society and streets, and more than a few fellow Gaijin have mentioned that they didn't expect Japan to be quite so 'Asian'.\nYet everything just works. People are polite and patient, incredibly helpful to the point that they'll miss their train to make sure you're okay. For all the bicycles everywhere, I'm yet to see one collision and near misses are met with cries of apology, rather than rage and blame. Catching the metro at rush hour is the perfect way to witness this systemic politeness with people forming orderly queues everywhere from boarding the train to keeping left on the stairs when transferring lines.\nAfter having spent more than four months here, suffice to say that some of the charm is wearing off. Japanese culture is renowned for its politeness and deference, which makes for a very pleasant social experience - whether it's the yell of 'irrasshaimase!' (welcome!) as you enter every store or the thousand 'thank you's as you leave, even if you haven't bought anything. Such deference also leads to a degree of conformity that is aching with suppressed identities or ideas. Conformity is king and all seem to work to maintain the accepted social order.\nThis deference also means that Japanese people have developed a rather indirect method of communicating - a Japanese person will decline an invitation by saying they have plans (even if they don't) and consider it rude to accept compliments, instead it's more polite to deny your genuine talent. Such indirectness can be frustrating after a while. This conformity to accepted social behaviours permeates on a deeper level here, adherence to ideas and even fashion seems to lead to a sea of sameness, which occasionally makes me want to shake the Japanese people I meet to see if they do indeed have their own ideas, identities and opinions.\nThere is a pressure to conform here, which seems at odds with my own context where people go to great lengths to express their individuality, uniqueness and that they are special. And when Japanese people do attempt to be what we might term 'non-conformist', they end up adopting a different set of accepted social attributes associated with whichever sub-culture they choose to embrace, which in turn undermines the concept of going against the grain.\nAll this aside, this place has a peacefulness and a calm, even in the midst of millions. Japanese people accept that if they have to live in such close quarters with so many other people that they might as well strive to make it a pleasant existence. That is what I'll miss about this country - the ease, the patience, the convenience of healthy (and unhealthy) Japanese snacks at 7-11.\nThis experience of Japan has also involved some seriously life-changing and sad moments for me, so I'll be happy to reset and revisit this place without the tough memories following me around every corner. The allure of Japan was sparked in me from a young age, and despite everything that's happened here, I will certainly be back one day.\nFinally, the photos to accompany this post are of textures and a colour palette that have caught my eye over the past few months, which I believe are somewhat unique to this country and culture (and which didn't make the cut on previous posts!).\nNext, my adventure takes me to Europe and I hope you'll stay with me on my journey.\nA wooden wall somewhere in Kyoto\nThe faded red railing down by the breakwater light, Takamatsu\nReflected road, Ogijima\nA mossy wall somewhere near Okabe Tamatori (Shizuoka Prefecture)\nYoung girls playing a game at the Hiroshima Yukata Festival\nHazy night time reflection, Hiroshima\njapan, \u00a5200, thoughts, opinions, philosophy, life, travel, asia",

        "raw_content": "By Steve Cook Print Article\nBy writing down all underwater mortgages to market value, the nation\u2019s banks could pump $71 billion per year into the economy, create more than one million jobs annually and save families $6,500 per year on mortgage payments.\nThat\u2019s the bottom line in a new report by The New Bottom Line, a nationwide campaign representing 1,000 faith-based and community organizations seeking to hold Wall Street accountable and find solutions for struggling and middle-class families.\nGrassroots organizations across the country aligned with The New Bottom Line campaign are calling on State Attorneys General who are investigating the banks for foreclosure fraud to stand firm for a settlement agreement that both includes large-scale principle reduction for underwater borrowers and does not release the banks from claims beyond the robo-signing scandal.\n\u201cHomeowners across the nation are struggling to pay their boom-era mortgages with their recession-era salaries and the economy is suffering for it. Writing down the principals and interest rates on all underwater mortgages to market value would serve as the second stimulus that America so desperately needs, only without added costs to taxpayers,\u201d according to the report entitled \u201cThe Win/Win Solution: How Fixing the Housing Crisis Will Create One Million Jobs.\u201d\nThe plan would lower homeowners\u2019 mortgage payments by an average of more than $500 per month or $6,500 per year. Six billion dollars per month that is currently going to mortgage payments would instead go toward buying groceries, school supplies, and other household necessities.\nAs consumer demand picked up, businesses would start hiring again. For example, the plan would inject an annual stimulus of $20.5 billion in California and 300,000 jobs per year; $1.64 billion in Ohio and 24,000 jobs; and $12 billion in Florida and almost 180,000 jobs.\nLast year, the nation\u2019s top six banks paid out more than twice the cost of the plan ($71 billion per year) in bonuses and compensation alone ($146 billion in 2010), the report says. Currently, the nation\u2019s banks are sitting on a historically high level of cash reserves\u2014$1.64 trillion.",

        "raw_content": "Home Facebook Internet Technology Facebook, Eutelsat to Use Satellites to Spread Net Across Sub-Saharan Africa\nFacebook, Eutelsat to Use Satellites to Spread Net Across Sub-Saharan Africa\nFacebook and Eutelsat Communications on Monday announced a partnership to leverage satellite technology to provide Internet access to remote parts of sub-Saharan Africa.\nThe initiative, which includes a multiyear agreement with Spacecom, will utilize the entire broadband payload on the future AMOS-6 satellite as the backbone of a dedicated system that will include satellite capacity, gateways and terminals.\nFacebook and Eutelsat will provide online access to African regions where there is little to no connectivity. The companies highlighted the potential for economic and social benefits that the project could bring.\nThe initiative is the latest effort of Internet.org, which Facebook launched two years ago to address the physical, economic and social barriers that keep many people in the developing world from getting online.\n\"Facebook's mission is to connect the world, and we believe that satellites will play an important role in addressing the significant barriers that exist in connecting the people of Africa,\" said Chris Daniels, vice president of Internet.org.\nKa-Band Aid\n\"Eutelsat has already validated satellite as a fast, effective and efficient way to get users online in many markets,\" Eutelsat CEO Michel de Rosen said.\n\"For Africa, we believe satellite will play its role as a long-term solution for affordable and quality Internet,\" he told TechNewsWorld. \"The agreement with Facebook is for us a great opportunity to accelerate access into Africa's Internet market.\"\nThe service, scheduled to begin in the second half of 2016, will utilize the Ka-band, which can provide greater capacity and direct-to-user Internet access via affordable, off-the-shelf equipment, the companies said.\nThe system will work via dedicated Internet gateways in Europe and Israel and will send a signal to dish antennas in Africa. Eutelsat has provided a similar service to remote regions over the Ku-band, but that requires a larger antenna for pickup than the 75-centimeter antennas that Ka-band terminals will use.\n\"Eutelsat is a satellite provider of Internet access, so the potential infrastructure issues are presumably removed as barriers,\" said Greg Sterling, vice president of strategy and insight at the Local Search Association.\nIssues such as how the satellite performs in bad whether or when there's other atmospheric disturbance still may need to be resolved, he told TechNewsWorld\nFacebook's Connected World\nThe effort will provide service where there is none, and Facebook deserves some credit for that.\n\"Access to connectivity will bring benefits to the users. Even if it is only through Facebook, messages and posts enable people to share the news and what's important to them,\" said Josh Crandall, principal analyst at Netpop Research.\n\"If users don't see a benefit, they won't use the service. If the investment ultimately leads to additional advertising revenue, it'll be a win for the population -- and Facebook,\" he told Tech NewsWorld.\nDetails of the service haven't been provided, but \"it is important that the governments involved require open access,\" Crandall said.\n\"What exactly is included in 'free Internet'?\" he asked. \"Is it everything from Wikipedia and Google to Facebook, or only Facebook and Instagram?\"\nWhile the project aims to bring cost-effective broadband access to unconnected populations, Facebook also might be motivated by advertising dollars -- the more eyeballs, the more its ads are worth.\n\"There isn't an immediate ad play, but longer term there will be revenues associated with the move, if successful,\" the Local Search Association's Sterling said.\nThe New Imperialists?\nFacebook could be seen as the next-generation player for connecting the world online.\n\"In a number of developing countries, Facebook is synonymous with the Internet much in the same way that AOL was in the U.S. early on,\" said Sterling.\nThe goal may be to connect as many people as possible as the economies of developing countries are on the increase, said Roger Entner, principal analyst at Recon Analytics.\nThat market may not be the most lucrative, \"but as their incomes rise over time and they stay loyal to Facebook as the company that enabled them to access the Internet first, revenues will come down the line,\" he told TechNewsWorld. \"This is really a long play for Facebook betting on global living standards to rise.\"\nHowever, Facebook's efforts to forge brand loyalty and user habits that are aligned with its long-term brand and revenue goals could result in a mix of altruistic and self-interested motivations.\n\"Recall that Google was trying to do something similar with Project Loon,\" noted Sterling. \"One could argue this might be the digital equivalent of European colonial expansion into Africa on the 19th Century. But make no mistake, Africans also will benefit if they can get reliable and affordable Internet access.\"\nFacebook, Eutelsat to Use Satellites to Spread Net Across Sub-Saharan Africa Reviewed by Editor on 3:03 PM Rating: 5\nTags : Facebook Internet Technology",

        "raw_content": "Crowder/B.B. King Blues Club & Grill/March 5, 2018\nDavid Crowder was born and raised in Texarkana, Texas, then moved 222 miles to Waco for college in the mid-1990s. Learning that half of the 14,000 students were not attending church, he helped found a college-friendly church in 1996 and began writing songs that he hoped would appeal to the students; performing these songs slowly led to the formation of a worship band. The David Crowder Band\u2018s adventurous worship music attracted listeners beyond the church, and the band\u2019s recordings and tours grew increasingly successful. After six studio albums, the David Crowder Band split in 2012. Crowder relocated to Atlanta, Ga., and began recording and performing until his mononymous stage name, Crowder. American Prodigal, Crowder\u2019s second and most recent solo album, was released in 2016.\nCrowder\u2019s band, seemingly named appropriately tonight, indeed crowded onto the stage at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill and ripped into a set of lively, uplifting songs that praised God while exploring an intricate mix of bluegrass, folk, and alternative music. Crowder\u2019s yearning vocal delivery projected solemnity and joyfulness, and the band\u2019s arrangements locked into a balance that both supported the vocalist and rallied the audience. Lyrics projected onto side screens invited participation from the audience. Crowder\u2019s concert was not your mom\u2019s gospel music; its dynamic rocking sound had strong appeal for both the religious and secular.\nGangstagrass/Hill Country Barbecue Market/March 9, 2018\nThe Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Rench produced country and hip-hop recordings by other artists before conceiving Gangstagrass, a concept that combined bluegrass and rap, in 2006. Rench made a recording, posted it online as a free download, and the public response was positive. The rappers and bluegrass personnel have changed over time, with only Rench remaining as the ongoing coordinator, producer and main contributor. Presently, Gangstagrass consists of two emcees, R\u2013Son the Voice of Reason and Dolio the Sleuth, along with Dan Whitener on banjo, Landry McMeans on resonator guitar, Dave Grosson mandolin, DJ Leecy T on the turntable, and Rench on guitar. Gangstagrass\u2019 fourth and most recent album, American Music, was released in 2015; a live album is planned for release later this year.\nGangstagrass\u2019s performance at Hill Country Barbecue Market tonight demonstrated that \u201chick-hop\u201d has a new Brooklyn-based face, fresh with authentic bluegrass instrumentalists, frequent three-part harmonies, hard beats and dominant raps. Together, the emcees and pickers perform original compositions as well as traditional folk anthems that pay tribute to Americana veterans. Often the two rappers trade verses and the others sing the choruses. The band\u2019s hybrid of genres may not be for purists, but presumably there must be a wider audience that would appreciate the Rappalachian fusion.\nMichael Schenker Fest/Irving Plaza/March 10, 2018\nPerhaps Michael Schenker was a rock star child prodigy. Born in Sarstedt, Germany, he started playing guitar in 1964 at the age of nine, after his older brother Rudolf Schenker received a guitar for his birthday. At age 11, Michael played his first gig with Rudolf\u2019s band, the Scorpions, in a nightclub. When he was 14, Michael teamed with singer Klaus Meine and started a band named Copernicus. In 1970, when Michael was 15 and Klaus was 21, they joined the Scorpions. In 1972, at age 17, Michael left the Scorpions and joined the British psychedelic band UFO, and turned UFO into a hard rock band. At the same time Michael was approached to audition for the Rolling Stones; reportedly that made him nervous and he never returned the call. Michael left UFO in 1978 and played on the Scorpions\u2019 breakthrough Lovedrive album. Michael was invited to jam with Aerosmith in 1979 when Joe Perry left, Ozzy Osbourne asked Michael to join his band after Randy Rhoads died in an airplane crash in 1982, Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy and Ian Hunter of Mott the Hoople approached him in 1984, Lemmy Kilmister asked him to join Motorhead, and Whitesnake and Deep Purple approached him as well. He declined all of them. Instead, Michael has been in UFO four separate times and starting in 1979 led numerous versions of the Michael Schenker Group (MSG), the McAuley\u2013Schenker Group, and Michael Schenker Temple of Rock, among other outfits, plus he has recorded solo acoustic material. His current project is Michael Schenker Fest, which reunites him with four of his previous singers \u2014 Gary Barden, Graham Bonnet, Robin McAuley, Doogie White \u2014 along with guitarist/keyboardist Steve Mann, bassist Chris Glen, and drummer Ted McKenna. Michael Schenker Fest\u2019s debut studio album,Resurrection, was released on March 2, 2018.\nHeadlining at Irving Plaza tonight, the Michael Schenker Fest was a retrospective that played up to Schenker\u2019s best moments so far. Although structured as a spectacular, with each of the vocalists singing a handful of songs and some songs featuring more than one singer, it really hardly mattered which vocalist was on stage or even how many were on stage. All four vocalists sounded pretty similar, and realistically, the star of the show was Schenker and his dazzling guitar work. Schenker was all smiles throughout the performance, and often played directly to the fans at the edge of the stage, several times reaching out to slap outreached hands. For two hours and 40 minutes, the \u201cBlond Bombshell\u201d relentlessly played clean, fluid, lyrical guitar leads with a bit of distortion, utilizing nimble fingers to get the most out of his guitars. The mostly uptempo songs showcased Schenker\u2019s technical guitar wizardry, mixing various modes on major and minor pentatonic scale runs with both picking and legato, wide vibrato, deep bends and general rock phrasing. The only way to adequately describe Schenker\u2019s superb performance was, \u201cWow!\u201d\nA Day to Remember/Hammerstein Ballroom/March 12, 2018\nIn 2003, guitarist Tom Denney and drummer Bobby Scruggs founded A Day to Remember (often abbreviated ADTR) in Ocala, Fla., drafting vocalist Jeremy McKinnon, rhythm guitarist Neil Westfall, and bassist Joshua Woodard from different bands in the local music scene. Over time, Denny and Scruggs left the band, leaving the remaining members to recruit percussion and drummer Alex Shelnutt in 2006 and lead guitarist Kevin Skaff in 2009. A Day to Remember\u2019s mix of emo, metalcore and pop punk music has sold more than a million units, with two albums achieving gold status. The band\u2019s sixth and most current album, Bad Vibrations, was released on Sept. 2, 2016.\nA Day to Remember\u2019s \u201c15 Years In The Making Tour\u201d included Papa Roach, Falling in Reverse, and The Devil Wears Prada as support acts. ADTR\u2019s set was dominated by the band\u2019s middle period, with no songs from the debut album and only one song, \u201cParanoia,\u201d from the most recent album. The band opened with \u201cI\u2019m Made Of Wax Larry, What Are You Made Of?,\u201d which featured a guest vocal from Mike Hranica of The Devil Wears Prada. Pop punk and emo dominated the band\u2019s reference points, leading to endless angst-filled singalongs from the audience, but the skeletons of the songs were often rooted in riff-based metalcore with few extended guitar leads. The convergence of generally soft vocals (although there were a few death growls) and deep and dark grooves made for a lighter shade of metal. A Day to Remember seems to be forging a new path for younger emo bands to follow.\na day to remembercrowdergangstagrassmichael schenker\nAn Interview With A Day To Remember: Nothing But Good Vibrations",

        "raw_content": "One big unintended consequence of protecting cyber privacy in the west\nIt will help China in its quest to gain AI supremacy over the US.\nIn late May, people in Europe were blocked from US news sites such as the Los Angeles Times. Others couldn\u2019t turn on connected lights with mobiles unless they agreed to new terms of service. While that might sound standard, Tumblr users faced 322 questions to answer on how the blogging network could use their data Other companies mistakenly divulged thousands of personal emails while contacting users on new conditions. So many mishaps and frustrations occurred a \u2018GDPR Hall of Shame\u2019 was set up to host \u2018GDPR horror\u2019 stories.\nThat four-letter acronym stands for the General Data Protection Regulation, the name for the EU laws to protect data privacy that took force on May 25 amid such confusion that even the European Commission failed to comply (and then said it didn\u2019t need to). Under the laws, businesses must release data on request from the \u2018data subject,\u2019 while people can sell their data to rival businesses and ask to have it erased.\nThe laws are of note because, as the world\u2019s strongest privacy protections, they set a global benchmark for privacy. That the definition of \u2018data subjects\u2019 includes people who live outside or are non-residents of the EU makes this more likely because any company doing business in the EU must comply.\nBy setting a world standard, the EU laws carry global political implications. A key one is they pressure the US to protect privacy far more than otherwise in an era when data-dependent artificial intelligence (or AI) is an essential technology. The US could thus be handicapped in two ways in its quest to hold AI (and overall tech) supremacy over China, where the competition on AI will be decided on a mixture of computer grunt, savvy algorithms and access to mass data. The first is that US algorithms might lack the volume of unfiltered data needed to \u2018self learn\u2019, the most advanced form of AI. The other is that excessive privacy could hinder the business models of the US companies that fund much AI research in the US \u2013 companies such as Alphabet and Facebook that use personal cyber information to optimise ad-serving algorithms. (Business funds about 72% of science R&D in the US.) Privacy could put much at stake because the country that wins the AI and broader technological battle could lurch ahead in the zero-sum game for global supremacy.\nIt\u2019s debatable how crucial privacy will be in deciding tech supremacy \u2013 or, to put that another way, how decisive quantity might prove to be in determining the usefulness of data. The tech fight between China and the US will include quantum computing, fifth-generation wireless systems, the internet of things and space dominance where privacy laws have less influence, and perhaps the US is too far ahead on technology to catch anyway. Other factors besides technology will decide which of China and the US hold the most global sway. Perhaps the US won\u2019t enact tougher privacy laws because US citizens might be concerned about handing China an advantage, or the Chinese will demand more privacy protections. The tech fight between China and the US will have broader economic implications because it is likely to hamper global trade and capital flows as each country attempts to stymie the other by localising tech supply chains.\nSuch protectionist outcomes only highlight the role AI could play in determining which country holds global supremacy \u2013 and Russian President Vladimir Putin, for one, forecasts that whichever country leads on AI \u201cwill become the ruler of the world\u201d (even if the only clear leaders are China and the US because of their economic size). The privacy issues surrounding digital data highlight that the contest is essentially a brawl between two political systems. While a liberal-democratic system holds enduring advantages in this tussle that means the US is likely to prevail, China\u2019s autocratic system gives it a second key advantage in AI. China\u2019s first advantage is that can amass data from 1.4 billion subjects who are already mostly online.\nChina\u2019s tech drive\nIn 2012, the House Intelligence Committee of US Congress judged Chinese telecoms Huawei and ZTE as security threats because they would act for Beijing if required. In April this year, US tensions over China\u2019s tech abilities were exposed when Washington banned ZTE from buying US components for breaching US embargoes against North Korea and Iran. To highlight Chinese and US tensions on tech, at the same time, the House of Representatives was considering a bipartisan bill to remove Huawei and ZTE from the US supply chain.\nIf history is to date the acceleration of the Chinese-US tech race it could home in on 2015 when Beijing launched \u2018Made in China 2025,\u2019 a plan to transform the country into an advanced manufacturer within 10 years. The plan identified 10 sectors of focus such as AI, biotech and robotics. China\u2019s tech focus further intensified in 2017 when Beijing revealed a plan to be \u201cleading the world in AI by 2030\u201d and proclaimed an ambition to become a \u201ccyber superpower\u201d to rival the US.\nBeijing\u2019s means to achieve these goals are massive government investment and huge subsidies in the form of cheap loans, capital injections, rent concessions and tax breaks. Other tools are import protection, self-sufficiency targets, and the banning of certain foreign companies to enable Chinese equivalents to flourish (such as the barring of Facebook and Twitter to help WeChat and Weibo). Channels to import knowledge include the forced transfer of technology from western partners, forbidding foreign companies in China from transferring data abroad, and government-endorsed takeovers of foreign rivals such as Midea\u2019s purchase of German robotics company Kuka in 2016. Other knowledge injections are enabled through the lax enforcement of intellectual property rights and, the US alleges, government-sanctioned spying on western competitors. Such are the advantages of an autocratic political system under one-party rule.\nUnder this command economy, China has become the world\u2019s biggest spender on scientific research after the US, having surpassed the EU in 2015. China\u2019s average annual growth on R&D spending of 18% p.a. from 2000 to 2015 has boosted China\u2019s global share of R&D activities to 21%. Over the same time, the US\u2019s global share of such spending dropped from 37% to 26%. The National Science Board, the US federal agency that compiles these numbers, this year forecast China to pass the US in R&D investment by the end of 2018, says Chinese scientists produce more research papers than those in the US, and estimates China is close to turning out as many science and engineering graduates as the US.\nOther accomplishments of note include that in 2017 China overtook the US in being home to most of the world\u2019s 500 most powerful computers \u2013 by year\u2019s end, China had 202 of them compared to only 143 in the US. To achieve even more, Beijing is encouraging foreign scientists to work in China and foreign-trained Chinese talent to return home. Chinese policymakers show no signs of wanting to clip the market dominance of e-commerce-based Alibaba, internet-based Baidu and games- and social-media-oriented Tencent (that all invest in AI research) in the way some EU and US policymakers talk of limiting the power of the US tech giants, which could hamper US AI advances.\nChina\u2019s AI strides\nChina\u2019s expanding global tech clout is evident, even if ZTE vulnerability to the loss of US components shows how far the country is behind the US. China\u2019s influence has grown over international bodies such as the International Telecommunications Unions and the 3rd Generation Partnership Project that set global standards for telecommunications, wireless networks, the internet and AI. The country is intent on having a \u2018first mover\u2019 advantage over the US on super \u2018low frequency\u2019 5G so it can set global standards. About 26% of global science venture flows head to China (about half the percentage that goes to the US). By some counts, China, with 26, is home to more of the top-50 \u2018unicorns\u2019 (privately owned tech startups with a valuation of more than US$1 billion) than the US, with just 16. Alibaba (through Ant Financial) and Tencent are gaining control of payments infrastructure in the emerging world, especially Africa. Huawei and ZTE have 41% market share of the global mobile infrastructure market.\nChina\u2019s growing AI prowess is just as noticeable. China is using AI to pioneer facial recognition, number-plate tracking and other surveillance technologies to develop \u2018social credit\u2019 \u2013 essentially party loyalty \u2013 scores on each Chinese citizen that feed into predictive algorithms. China\u2019s surveillance specialist SenseTime in April became the world\u2019s most valuable AI startup and its AI could help Alibaba create cashless grocery stores. With a mentality that AI will brighten the future (rather than herald a dystopian jobless world as many in the west fear), China is achieving AI milestones in voice recognition, autonomous driving and manufacturing robotics. The country is amassing databases that no other country can for algorithm-based analysis, while \u2018localising\u2019 and directing them to where they might be most beneficial.\nThe US\u2019s systemic advantage\nIn 1944, then US president Franklin Roosevelt commissioned a report, which came to be called Science, the endless frontier,[27] that galvanised how public and private bodies would cooperate on science in the decades that followed. Many credit this cooperation for the \u201cbreathtaking advances\u201d, from high-energy particle accelerators to atomic clocks, that gave the US leadership in technology over the past half century. The same people lament the US system no longer works as it did in 1964 when the US government provided 67% of science R&D.\nBut US tech leadership since the 1940s would probably have happened anyway thanks to the country\u2019s political system, free-market economic framework and innovative and entrepreneurial culture. The US is a pro-business liberal democracy, which time has shown to be the best wealth-creating form of governance \u2013 almost all the 25 richest countries (on a per capita basis) are liberal democracies.\nThe chances are liberal democracies will stay the world\u2019s richest countries. The liberal-democratic system, for all its flaws (and there are many), best provides an economy with the foundations to prosper. Rules and checks and balances that limit the power of politicians and encourage political stability are in place, as is a methodical way to change leaders. An independent legal system secures property rights, which provides an incentive to accumulate wealth, and instills a sense of justice that glues people into a society. An unfettered media heightens knowledge and acts as a counterforce to government power. Strong and impartial institutions help create an environment where anti-competitive practices are kept in check so businesses can thrive. Authoritarian regimes boast none of these attributes.\nPrivacy\u2019s elevation towards a civil right in liberal democracies will no doubt slow some AI advancement in these countries. But even in the era of US President Donald Trump, the US\u2019s best attribute as the country engages China in a battle over AI is still likely to be a political system that allows business to flourish while protecting the privacy of its citizens, even if GDPR-like stuff ups occur as this is done.\nGross domestic expenditures on R&D by selected region or country: 2000-2015\nPublished by Michael Collins, Investment Specialist, Magellan Group",

        "raw_content": "Fear is the Mother of Foresight, or OMG I\u2019m Going to Be Published!\nThis week, in prep for Halloween, the Debs are writing about their biggest fears about publishing.\nThe quote in the headline comes from Thomas Hardy in his \u201cA Laodicean.\u201d I found it apt for this post. Why? Because I\u2019m a worry-wart. I probably should have added that to my confessions post,. I over-think nearly most every situation, prepping myself for what might come. I recently learned that the term for this is defensive pessimism. I carefully consider all the things that might go wrong and plan for my course of action if they do. Please note that I don\u2019t consider myself a negative person. In general, I like to believe that everything is going to be awesome but I want to take all the steps I can to salvage the situation if the opposite should occur.\nGetting ready to publish my first book has put me into a place where this defensive pessimism has kicked in on the extreme. I am constantly going over all sorts of scenarios in my mind.\nThere are some (mostly irrational) worries which I have no way to combat:\nWhat if my agent/publisher realizes that I\u2019m a hack, a fraud, and that my writing and my story are really just crap?\nWhat if all the reviews say as much?\nWhat if readers also find out?\nOf course, this defies all logic, including the fact that both my agent and publisher chose to work with me out of the thousands they could have chosen, and that I had so many positive blurbs on my book that my editor told me I don\u2019t need to get any more. It\u2019s quite possible that some readers won\u2019t like it. I\u2019m steeling myself for that and reminding myself that liking a book is entirely subjective.\nThen there are some things which I have a little more control over, or at least can come up with some course of action to prevent or respond to if they happen:\nMy agent or publisher will lose interest in my work at some point, maybe before, or immediately after publication. Again, mostly illogical, but not impossible.\nThat there won\u2019t be very much promotion attached to my book (and I don\u2019t have enough money to make up for it).\nThe book will be a flash-in-the-pan.\nThat I will have really screwed up something in the history and all the die-hard ancient Rome fans will come after me with their pointy wooden swords.\nThat I won\u2019t have built up a big enough digital audience before my launch, thus reducing the possible reach my book has.\nMy book will be lost in the hundreds of thousands of books that are launched every year (many of them horribly mediocre with terrible covers).\nWhat if only my friends and family buy the book?\nThat I forgot to thank someone in the acknowledgments (or people will assume I should have thanked them then be upset at me because I didn\u2019t choose to do so).\nMy email list isn\u2019t big enough (and what on earth will I write about in a monthly email)?\nThat I won\u2019t ever be able to transition my career to writing books\u2026that it will never make me enough money and I\u2019ll always have to do it on the side.\nI also have flip-side worries about it being too popular, which is probably the most ridiculous of all. Fears like:\nWhat if my friends/fellow writers are jealous of my success and treat me differently?\nWhat if the book becomes wildly successful and people end up stalking me?\nWhat if the movie that is made from my book (because of course I\u2019m planning that there will be\u2026hello directors out there!) turns out to be radically different than my novel?\nI spend ridiculous amounts of time worrying about all angles of the publishing and writing process, how to combat all of those what-ifs. It sounds like I\u2019m a massive anxiety machine, doesn\u2019t it? But it\u2019s not like that\u2013quite the opposite. It\u2019s how I prevent the anxiety and stress. It\u2019s how I ready myself for any possible downside. I don\u2019t really like to leave everything to chance. But note, I\u2019m fully hopeful that everything will go well. It\u2019s just that I want to be in control if I need to reset expectation. That\u2019s what it\u2019s mostly about. I\u2019m a control freak. It\u2019s a pre-coping mechanism.\nMaybe some of the above fears will come true. I hope not, but if they do I\u2019ve already set myself up for the possibility. I\u2019ll be able to take it a bit more in stride and will have a plan of action for what I will do next. See, not so scary.\nPosted in 2017 Debs, Crystal King, Feast of Sorrow, Publishing Tagged books, Craft, fear, Feast of Sorrow, publishing, the writing life, writing\n\u2190 Deb News Flash: Past and Present\n10 Halloween Season Publishing Nightmares \u2192\nKaela Coble says:\nI haven\u2019t even gotten my official pub date yet and I\u2019ve already had all these questions stuck in my head at one point or another! I\u2019m trying to learn to let go of all the worries because all I can control is the words I put on the paper and nothing else. But that\u2019s hard for worrywarts like us!\nThe good thing to know is that you aren\u2019t alone! My agent had a good chuckle about this post; it\u2019s so irrational.

        "title": "Here\u2019s the New Plan to Crack Down on Social Security Fraud | The Fiscal Times",
        "raw_content": "Harsh New Penalties for Social Security Fraud Are Coming\nWith growing outrage over billions of dollars of Social Security fraud \u2013 from phony disability insurance claims to retirement payments for deceased beneficiaries \u2013 Congress is about to approve a major crackdown that includes harsher criminal and civil penalties and fines.\nRelated: New Evidence That Disability Fraud Costs Billions\nThe reforms include the creation of a new felony specifically for conspiracy to commit Social Security fraud that is punishable by up to five years in prison and fines of up to $250,000. The reforms would also provide even stiffer penalties of from five to 10 years in prison for individuals in positions of trust, such as claimant representatives, doctors and other health care providers or current or former employees of the Social Security Administration.\nThose persons of trust could also be slapped with civil monetary penalties of from $5,000 to $7,500 for each false statement or omission they make to advance a fraudulent transaction. Disability insurance recipients could also lose their benefits if they are found to have been concealing work activity or misrepresenting their physical or mental conditions.\nThe new, harsher penalties were inserted in the 140-page two-year budget and debt ceiling agreement that was unveiled late Monday by House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and the White House. The House is expected to take up the budget legislation on Wednesday and the Senate will act later this week at the earliest. The legislation also includes measures to bolster the sagging revenues in the Social Security Disability Insurance program and prevent a 20 percent, across-the-board cut in benefits for 11 million people.\nRelated: Audit Uncovers $124.7 B of Overpayments and Fraud in Medicare and Medicaid\nAs one indication of the extent of the problems with Social Security payments, between Oct. 1, 2014 and March 31 the Social Security\u2019s Office of Inspector General received more than 65,900 allegations of fraud from SSA employees, Congress, law enforcement agencies and the public. OIG agents closed more than 3,800 criminal investigations during that period, leading to more than 280 arrests, over 380 indictments, 620 criminal convictions and over 140 civil judgement or civil monetary penalties.\n\u201cWe are reporting over $469 million in investigative accomplishments, including over $160 million in SSA recoveries, restitution, fines, settlements, and judgments; and over $308 million in projected savings from investigations resulting in the suspension or termination of benefits,\u201d Inspector General Patrick P. O\u2019Carroll Jr. reported. \u201cIn addition, we participated in multi-agency investigations that resulted in over $22 million in savings, restitution, and recoveries for other agencies.\u201d\nThere are roughly 59 million beneficiaries receiving monthly benefits checks. About 42 million of that total are retired workers, six million or more are survivors of deceased workers, and about 11 million are disabled beneficiaries. Overall, the Social Security Administration will pay out more than $800 billion in benefits payments this year.\nOne of the biggest problems involves the payment of monthly Social Security benefits to people who have died, with relatives or others continuing to collect and cash the checks. According to the IG\u2019s report issued in March, investigators identified about 6.5 million individuals in the Social Security\u2019s active database who would be age 112 or older \u2013 without any indication of whether they are still alive or dead. With an average U.S. life expectancy of 78.8 years, there\u2019s more than a reasonable chance that most of those beneficiaries are deceased.\nRelated: Medicare Drug Program Still Plagued by Fraud\nMoreover, the inspector general\u2019s report said that between 2006 and 2011, individuals using nearly 67,000 Social Security numbers generated $3.1 billion in tips, wages and self-employment income. Yet the employees' or self-employed individuals' names didn't match the Social Security number account-holders' names.\nIn one case, an individual opened bank accounts using Social Security numbers for individuals born in 1869 and 1893. The Social Security\u2019s official database of active numbers indicated that both beneficiaries were alive -- meaning they would be older than 145 and 121 years, respectively.\nSens. Ron Johnson (R-WI.), who chairs the Senate committee that oversees the Social Security Administration, declared in a statement: \u201cIt is incredible that the Social Security Administration in 2015 does not have the technical sophistication to ensure that people they know to be deceased are actually noted as dead.\u201d\nAnother big problem are fraudulent claims for Social Security Disability Insurance payments by people who either are faking their disabilities or are hiding income from the government.\nRelated: Boehner\u2019s Last Stand \u2014 A Budget Deal That Raises the Debt Ceiling\nLast January, for example, a federal grand jury in Puerto Rico returned 39 separate indictments charging one doctor, Luis Escabi-P\u00e9rez, and 39 others of fraud in the application process for Social Security Administration (SSA) disability insurance benefits in Puerto Rico, according to Puerto Ricco\u2019s U.S. attorney\u2019s office.\nEscabi-P\u00e9rez, a psychiatrist, submitted phony psychiatric medical reports to the SSA in support of applications for disability insurance benefits submitted by his patients, according to the FBI. He typically charged a $100 fee for a medical visit and $500 for the preparation and submittal of psychiatric medical reports to the SSA. \u201cHe would at times also charge additional fees of up to $5,000 to backdate medical records in order to create the appearance of a longer history of medical treatment.\u201d\nCongress and the Obama administration are also concerned about massive government losses through Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The Government Accountability Office in early October confirmed that Medicare and Medicaid fraud and overpayments were spinning out of control and posed a serious long-term budget challenge. In fiscal 2014 alone, 22 agencies approved improper Medicare, Medicaid and Earned Income Tax Credit payments totaling $124.7 billion \u2014an increase of $18.9 billion or 15 percent from the previous year, according to the report.\nHow the FBI Could Derail Hillary Clinton\u2019s Presidential Run\nJames Comey \u2013 not Bernie Sanders -- is the biggest challenge to Hillary Clinton\u2019s presidential ambitions, a prospect...\nHow Much Is Intervention in Syria Costing Russia?\nRoughly a month after it first began deploying military personnel and equipment into Syria, the bills for Russia\u2019s...",

        "title": "Five Foreign Policy Flashpoints for Tonight\u2019s Debate | The Fiscal Times",
        "raw_content": "In an election year when the economy weighs heaviest on voters\u2019 minds, tonight\u2019s foreign policy debate between President Obama and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney will most likely devolve into a symbolic slugfest where the search for sound bites trumps substance.\nThe die was cast last week when Romney waded waste deep into the muddy circumstances behind the tragic deaths of four U.S. diplomats in Benghazi, Libya. He accused the president of waiting two weeks before his administration acknowledged the deaths were planned acts by terrorists rather than by demonstrators protesting an against a U.S. produced anti-Islamic video. Romney\u2019s \u201cgotcha\u201d moment turned into a major embarrassment after moderator Candy Crowley provided the instant fact-check that the president had said within 24 hours, \u201cNo acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for.\u201d\nObama used the opening to remind viewers that he has compiled a very strong record on foreign affairs, carrying out virtually every promise made during his 2008 campaign. He ended the war in Iraq; is winding down the war in Afghanistan; and issued the command for the assault that brought Osama bin Laden, the mastermind of the 9/11 terrorist attack, to justice.\nThose achievements have been welcomed by a nation exhausted from more than a decade of war in the Middle East. Though there may have been some erosion in Obama\u2019s support in the weeks leading up to the second debate because of his lackluster first performance, polls have generally given the president high marks on his handling of foreign affairs.\nAny challenger inevitably has a tougher time on foreign policy issues and Romney\u2019s hurdles are higher than most. Charges that Obama has engaged in a non-stop \u201capology tour\u201d since taking office or has lost support among the U.S.\u2019s traditional allies like Israel may generate enthusiasm among the Republican Party\u2019s conservative base, but they have little resonance with middle-of-the-roaders, especially those who consider themselves independent.\nA Chicago Council on Global Affairs survey released in early September found Americans are souring on intervention abroad with a majority now saying the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan weren\u2019t worth the cost in lives or treasure. Fully 82 percent want the U.S. to withdraw from Afghanistan either on or before Obama\u2019s 2014 deadline. Meanwhile, 68 percent said defense spending should be cut, which is ten percentage points higher than the last time the group took its poll in 2010.\nMore significantly for this year\u2019s election, it was younger and independent voters \u2013 the very ones whom Romney must convince if he is going to win the White House \u2013 who are leading proponents of less active engagement abroad. \u201cThis report sheds light on greater similarities than differences between self-identified Republicans and Democrats on many aspects of foreign policy,\u201d noted Marshall Bouton, president of the Council. \u201cOver time, independents have become more inclined than either Republicans or Democrats to limit U.S. engagement in world affairs. Because independents are an increasing share of the electorate, this development in American public opinion warrants attention.\u201d\nRomney\u2019s foreign policy talking points on the campaign trail and in his major address at the Virginia Military Institute in late September ignored that sentiment. He wants to sharply increase defense spending; says he will take a tougher stance against Iran and North Korean on nuclear issues; wants a less cautious approach in supporting anti-regime movements in Syria and elsewhere; and wants to crack down on China on trade.\nYet Obama has sounded tough on those issues, too, often to the dismay of his leftwing supporters. Other than the defense spending issue, the difference between the candidates may not be as large as Romney\u2019s rhetoric would suggest.\nHere are the five areas most likely to generate heated exchanges during tonight\u2019s debate:\nRomney has repeatedly attacked Obama for his handling of Iran\u2019s nuclear weapons program and his failure to support the millions of Iranians who poured into the streets in June 2009 demanding democracy after the reelection of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. \u201cThey demanded freedom from a cruel regime that threatens the world; when they cried out, are you with us or are you with them, the American president was silent,\u201d Romney said at VMI.\nRomney has surrounded himself with many of the same neo-conservative foreign policy advisers like former United Nations ambassador John Bolton who engineered the invasion of Iraq. They also include Mojahideen-e Khalq, leader of what Suzanne Maloney, senior fellow at the Saban Center for Middle East Policy, called \u201ca discredited, cult-like exile group that has been reluctantly removed from the U.S. government\u2019s list of foreign terrorist organizations after a well-greased lobbying campaign.\u201d\nBoth Romney and Obama say they will use force if there is clear-cut movement on Iran\u2019s part to develop nuclear weapons. And both support the ongoing sanctions. Indeed, Obama will probably point to the escalating sanctions as proof his policy is working, since it has knocked the Iranian economy to its knees. It has won the support of not just traditional U.S. allies in Europe but Russia, who also wants to prevent a nuclear Iran on its border.\nAs for charges that the administration could have done more in 2009 to encourage regime change, \u201cthere is simply no evidence that more forceful American advocacy could have tipped the balance,\u201d Maloney wrote on the Brookings Institution website. \u201cThe Iranian Green Movement did not falter because of Obama\u2019s actions or lack thereof, but rather because of the divisions within its leadership, the lack of a coherent strategy, and the Iranian regime\u2019s willingness to use force, as well as the Iranian public\u2019s corresponding unwillingness to continue coming to the streets in the face of that force.\u201d\nLook for Romney to make similar charges about Obama\u2019s handling of the ongoing civil war in Syria, where dictator Bashar al-Assad\u2019s desperate struggle to hold onto power has resulted in the deaths of 30,000 of his fellow citizens. He\u2019s now bombing his own cities as well as neighboring Turkey. \u201cThe president has failed to lead,\u201d Romney said earlier this month.\nYet when pressed by reporters, Romney has offered no plan that goes much beyond what the president has done. He would not impose a no-fly zone around cities like Aleppo; he would not ship in heavy weapons; and he would not lead a coalition to organize the opposition, which is as fractured and fratricidal as Libya.\nThe president is clearly open to criticism for relying on former UN chief Kofi Annan to broker a peace and then pursuing back channel efforts to get Russian president Vladimir Putin to stop sending heavy weapons to the Assad regime. Daniel Serwer, a professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies, points to one reason for why those efforts failed: Russia\u2019s long-standing military ties to Syria, which provides significant arms sales revenue.\nAlso, pushing Putin hard on Syria could backfire, Serwer noted. \u201cRussian has been collaborative on Iran because they don\u2019t want to see them get nukes,\u201d he said. \u201cIf we push them on Assad, we could lose them on Iran and that\u2019s a bad trade-off.\u201d An Obama supporter, Serwer says \u201cwhen you\u2019re the challenger, you don\u2019t have to worry about the linkages between issues.\u201d\nLook for both sides to sound tough on China in their efforts to win support among blue-collar voters in the Midwest and other manufacturing regions of the country. Romney, attacked by the president\u2019s campaign for moving jobs to China while at Bain Capital, made getting tough on China the centerpiece of his East Asian foreign policy. Besides promising to brand them a currency manipulator \u201con day one,\u201d he would beef up the U.S. naval presence in the Far East, where China and Japan have been locked in a symbolic dispute over unpopulated islands.\nObama can easily respond to those charges. China\u2019s currency has been appreciating gradually because of steady jawboning by Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, and during his term in office he has backed a number of trade complaints against Chinese manufacturers for dumping goods in the U.S. market. He has also sought to flatter the region by saying U.S. foreign policy will soon \u201cpivot\u201d toward Asia, without articulating what exactly that means.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been a politically motivated effort by both sides to bash China even though we have a huge amount of information that currency imbalances are not causing the problems in our trade relationships with China,\u201d said Derek Scissors, a senior analyst with the Heritage Foundation. \u201cThe real problems are Chinese barriers to our goods and theft of intellectual property.\u201d\nKenneth Lieberthal, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who served as President Clinton\u2019s top China advisor, notes \u201cthere is a long tradition of the challenger saying the incumbent is too soft on China. Then he tries a few things, sees they don\u2019t work, and then adopts his predecessor\u2019s policies.\u201d\nHis fear is that inexperienced governments in Washington and Beijing could lead to an escalating trade war that benefits neither country. With Xi Jinping about to take over the presidency from Hu Jintao, the new leader needs to show his toughness abroad to win support for a pressing domestic agenda, which includes cracking down on corruption and reducing the huge wealth disparities in China. \u201cIf Romney comes in as the new sheriff in town and Xi doesn\u2019t punch back hard, he loses his leverage in China,\u201d Lieberthal said.\nThis is probably the biggest difference between the two candidates. Romney wants to increase spending on the military by 8 percent, which would lift it to 4 percent of gross domestic product by the end of this decade. The president has called for modest reductions in the rate of increase of military spending, which would stabilize military spending at about 3.5 percent of GDP.\n\u201cIf you think our future national security problems are going to be military ones, then you would support Romney,\u201d said Serwer of Johns Hopkins\u2019 SAIS. \u201cBut that\u2019s not the view of most foreign policy analysts.\u201d A former diplomat with 21 years in the foreign service, he worries that overemphasis on military spending will subtract from exerting American \u201csoft power\u201d abroad.\nThe budget proposed by vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan would slash non-military spending on foreign aid, embassies and consulates, and other programs by 25 percent. That could undermine Romney\u2019s proposal to shift more aid to economic development and public-private partnerships. \u201cRomney says he wants to build up the conditions for private-sector initiatives, but there won\u2019t be any money to do it,\u201d Serwer said.\nIronically, both candidates\u2019 inability to articulate how they will reduce the nation\u2019s long-term budget deficit has foreign policy implications, especially for Romney who is proposing a major military build-up without raising taxes. \u201cAsians want us to have a robust presence in the region,\u201d Lieberthal said. \u201cBut they want us to do more on the diplomatic and economic side, not the military side. The fear is that we won\u2019t be able to do that because of our fiscal situation.\u201d\nRomney hasn\u2019t said much about Russia since he was widely criticized for branding the country America\u2019s number one geopolitical foe. Still, he calls Obama\u2019s \u201creset\u201d policy an abject failure.\nLook for Romney to call for extending the missile defense system in Eastern Europe and scrapping the new strategic arms limitation treaty, which is up for Senate ratification. While not quite calling for a new Cold War, he clearly sees Russia as more threat than ally.\nObama has most Europeans on his side, who recognize that Russia has been as helpful in Iran and Afghanistan as it has been uncooperative in Syria. Even Poland has been working on repairing relations with its eastern neighbor. \u201cInitial concerns in Poland and the Czech Republic about the Obama administration\u2019s commitment to their security have been largely addressed, after the U.S. placed fighter jets in Central Europe and started holding regular military exercises there,\u201d wrote Clara M. O\u2019Donnell, a non-resident fellow at the Center on the United States and Europe.\nSerwer of Johns Hopkins offers another reason for keeping good relations with Russia over the next 24 months as the U.S. proceeds with its troop drawdown in Afghanistan. \u201cThey maintain our northern distribution network in Afghanistan,\u201d he noted. \u201cWe\u2019d really feel the loss of Russian support if we didn\u2019t have this other route when Pakistan closes the border, as they do from time to time.\u201d\nDebate Night: Get Ready for Donald Trump\u2019s Last Political Reality Show\nThe polls and conventional wisdom have converged over the past two weeks concluding that Donald Trump\u2019s presidential...\nFor Clinton, Trump\u2019s Campaign Is Better Alive and Flailing than Dead and Buried\nMany had expected -- and Hillary Clinton\u2019s supporters had dearly hoped -- that last night\u2019s second presidential debate...\nMike Pence Is Giving a Lot of Trump Supporters Buyer\u2019s Remorse\nIn the aftermath of his strong performance in Tuesday\u2019s debate against Democrat Tim Kaine, Republican vice-presidential...",

What he remembers most is his fear of what might have happened if Israel lost that war. As a young man he served in the IDF\u2019s Shaked Reconnaissance Unit, rising to the rank of Deputy Company Commander.\nHe joined the Shin Bet in May 1978 and was appointed Coordinator for the Nablus District. There, in the alleys of the refugee camps, he learned about the harsh realities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. During Operation Peace for Galilee he served in Beirut (1982) and Sidon (1983). In August 1990, he was appointed Director of the Department for Counter-Terrorism and Counter-Espionage at the Arab and Iranian Affairs Desk.\nDiskin\u2019s attitudes to the conflict changed even before the signing of the Oslo Accords, as a result of his participation in security talks with the Palestinians. From 1993 to 1997, he was deeply involved in establishing clandestine links with the leaders of the Palestinian security services, as well as with Jordanian and Egyptian intelligence.\nIn May 1997, he was appointed Director of the Central Command of the Shin Bet (Jerusalem and West Bank Region), a position he held until June 2000. During these turbulent years, the military wing of Hamas carried out a string of suicide attacks intended to foil the peace process. Diskin headed the operation that destroyed Hamas military infrastructures throughout Judea and Samaria. In July 2000, he was appointed Deputy Director of the Shin Bet. He became Head of the Shin Bet in May 2005.\nWhile serving as Deputy Director of the Shin Bet, he worked with his counterparts in the IDF to create an integrated counter-terrorism doctrine to thwart terrorist attacks, particularly the suicide bombers known as \u201cticking time bombs.\u201d He is believed to be the person who initiated and perfected the doctrine of \"targeted assassination.\"\nUpon retiring from the Shin Bet in May 2011, he has drawn attention from the Israeli and international media for his sharp critique of the current government\u2019s policies toward the Palestinians.",

Shortly after moving in she begins to experience strange things that cause her to suspect paranormal activity or worse, that it may all be in her mind.\nMeanwhile, The Spirit Stalkers reality television show, once a big hit, is in steady decline, mainly due to the fact that the Spirit Stalkers are so good at discovering reasonable explanations for the majority of haunted claims. The leader of the group, Reuben, is not flexible in regards to the Spirit Stalkers techniques and would rather go down with the ship than compromise the integrity of the group by sinking to the level of other paranormal investigative shows and their tendency to overreact to possible paranormal activity. Reuben believes what the show desperately needs is a very active location to set the ratings straight. This eventually leads them to Gloria who is at wits end with her house and the increasingly unexplainable occurrences. The Spirit Stalkers soon learn that they should be careful what they wish for.\nFor more information you can check out Big Biting Pig's website.\nLabels: DVD, Movies, News, Poster, Trailer",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: Donna Noble\nJust as the Cybermen flash into existence all over the Earth, a new threat erupts from the voidship \u2013 a group of Daleks, known to the Doctor as a particularly dangerous bunch called the Cult of Skaro, emerge with an unknown device of Time Lord origin called the Genesis Ark. The Daleks are fiercely protective of the Ark, but despite its origins, the Doctor has no idea what it is. The Cybermen aren\u2019t the only visitors from a parallel world: Mickey Smith, Pete Tyler and the soldiers of an anti-Cyberman resistance force have tracked their prey to this world, but now find themselves outgunned as the Daleks and Cybermen launch a full-scale war against each other, with the human race trapped in the middle and Torchwood powerless to fight back. Worse yet, the Genesis Ark is activated and reveals its Time Lord nature: bigger inside than out, it is a prison for millions of Daleks captured during the Time War, who join the fight that\u2019s laying waste to the entire Earth. The Doctor works out a plan to send both of the alien armies back into the void. But even if he can save the world, this time he may not be able to save Rose \u2013 and even if her newly (if awkwardly) reunited family saves her, her TARDIS traveling days are numbered.\nwritten by Russell T. Davies\nGuest Cast: Camille Coduri (Jackie Tyler), Noel Clarke (Mickey Smith), Shaun Dingwall (Pete Tyler), Andrew Hayden-Smith (Jake Simmonds), Tracy-Ann Oberman (Yvonne Hartman), Raji James (Dr. Rajesh Singh), Paul Kasey (Cyberleader), Nicholas Briggs (Dalek voices / Cyber voices), Barnaby Edwards (Dalek operator), Nicholas Pegg (Dalek operator), Stuart Crossman (Dalek operator), Anthony Spargo (Dalek operator), Dan Barratt (Dalek operator), David Hankinson (Dalek operator), Catherine Tate (the Bride)\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 02\tBBC1, Cybermen, Daleks, Donna Noble, Jackie Tyler, Main cast member leaves, Mickey Smith, Rose Tyler, The Tenth Doctor\nStill stunned from the loss of Rose, the Doctor is even more surprised when he finds someone else in the TARDIS \u2013 someone else who\u2019s wearing a bridal gown and insists that she was only moments ago at a church walking down the aisle. Her name is Donna, and she\u2019s neither impressed or pleased to find herself in an alien time machine.\nThe Doctor whisks her back to Earth, but no sooner has she arrived again than trouble follows: the robot Santas return, but this time they\u2019re not homing in on the Doctor \u2013 they\u2019re after Donna. The Doctor discovers that Donna\u2019s body has been irradiated with a kind of energy that hasn\u2019t existed for billions of years, and sets about tracking down the cause of it, eventually finding an elaborate but abandoned Torchwood installation beneath the Thames. But that top-secret organization isn\u2019t behind the energy or the robots. The Empress of the spider-like Racnoss is, and she plans to use Donna to jump-start a diabolical plan to revive her nearly-extinct race\u2026at the cost of the human race\u2019s extinction. If the Doctor can\u2019t find a way to flush this not-so-itsty-bitsy spider down the waterspout, Donna\u2019s TARDIS travels may have already come to an end.\ndirected by Euros Lyn\nCast: David Tennant (The Doctor), Catherine Tate (Donna Noble), Sarah Parish (Empress), Don Gilet (Lance Bennett), Howard Attfield (Geoff Noble), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Trevor Georges (Vicar), Glen Wilson (Taxi Driver), Krystal Archer (Nerys), Rhodri Meiur (Rhodri), Zafirah Boateng (Little Girl), Paul Kasey (Robot Santa)\nAppearing in footage from New Earth: Billie Piper (Rose Tyler)\nNotes: Despite numerous mentions that the planet of the Time Lords has been destroyed, this marks the first time in the new series that the name \u201cGallifrey\u201d has been spoken on screen. (It\u2019s somehow fitting, given that the name wasn\u2019t invented until Jon Pertwee\u2019s final season, over a decade into the original series\u2019 run.) Sarah Parrish starred with David Tennant in the series Blackpool (which was seen in the U.S. under the title of \u201cViva Blackpool\u201d). Though the Doctor says his visit to the formation of Earth is further back in time than he\u2019s ever gone, one would presume that the TARDIS\u2019 visit to \u201cevent one,\u201d i.e. the creation of the galaxy (see Castrovalva, 1982), must by definition be even further back in time, though he had just regenerated and wasn\u2019t aware of much of it. The extrapolator makes its first appearance since Boom Town. For only the third time in the series\u2019 history (The Deadly Assassin, the 1996 TV movie), the Doctor arrives and departs without a companion. The \u201cdark times\u201d during which the Time Lords did battle with the Racnoss may or may not be the same dark times hinted at by Lady Peinforte in Silver Nemesis. When the Doctor and Donna run out of the TARDIS en route to their final confrontation with the Empress, Donna leaves the door open, but it\u2019s closed a second later.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 03\tBBC1, Donna Noble, The Tenth Doctor\nOn Earth in 2008, the Doctor investigates a company called Adipose Industries, the makers of a diet pill that magically makes the fat \u201cwalk away,\u201d suspecting that there\u2019s something sinister to their miracle cure for obesity. Little does he know that his friend, former runaway bride Donna Noble, is also at Adipose, having just taken a job in health & safety. Also realizing that Adipose\u2019s claims are too good to be true, Donna begins her own investigation. Donna\u2019s family has criticized her for not sticking to any one job for any length of time since the mysterious circumstances around her not getting married, but what she can\u2019t explain to them is that she regrets not taking the Doctor up on his offer of travel in the TARDIS \u2013 and hopes she\u2019ll see him again someday. As she and the Doctor independently snoop around Adipose, they both learn of the more sinister agenda behind the miracle diet pill \u2013 and each other\u2019s presence. Just as quickly, they\u2019re both on the run, with Donna leaving no doubt that she expects to be off with the Doctor once the current crisis is over. There\u2019s just one problem: she\u2019s assuming that they\u2019ll both survive the wrath of the mysterious Mrs. Foster once the secret of Adipose is out.\nSeries 4 Regular Cast: David Tennant (The Doctor), Catherine Tate (Donna Noble)\nGuest Cast: Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Sarah Lancashire (Miss Foster), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Verona Joseph (Penny Carter), Jessica Gunning (Stacey Harris), Martin Ball (Roger Davey), Rachid Sabitri (Craig Staniland), Chandra Ruegg (Clare Pope), Sue Kelvin (Suzette Chambers), Jonathan Stratt (Taxi Driver)\nNotes: The episode carries a dedication to Howard Attfield, the late actor who played the role of Donna\u2019s father in The Runaway Bride. He originally shot some scenes for Partners In Crime, but upon his death, the bulk of his dialogue was rewritten for Donna\u2019s grandfather, played by Bernard Cribbins. According to the show\u2019s producers, Donna\u2019s grandfather is indeed the spirited but perhaps slightly unhinged newsstand man encountered by the Doctor (and also played by Cribbins) in Voyage Of The Damned. The Doctor\u2019s observation about how things can come and go through a catflap are nearly identical to a similar comment his seventh incarnation made in 1989\u2019s Survival \u2013 a story whose working title was Catflap.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, Main cast member joins, Rose Tyler, Season Premiere, The Tenth Doctor, Wilfred Mott\nThe Doctor brings Donna to ancient Pompeii, only to discover that they\u2019ve arrived on the eve of the eruption of Vesuvius. A woman in red robes who immediately noticed the time travelers after their arrival reports to the rest of her order \u2013 the blue box foretold by prophecy has appeared. When the Doctor and Donna race back to get in the TARDIS and leave, the blue box is exactly what they don\u2019t find: one of the street merchants sold it as a piece of art. The Doctor finds it soon enough, but now there\u2019s a new problem: Donna doesn\u2019t want to leave without saving some of the people of Pompeii from their fate, something which the Doctor assures her is impossible. Trying to outdo some of the local soothsayers, Donna warns everyone she can about the volcano, but the red-robed sisterhood marks her for death for the crime of false prophecy. The Doctor discovers that one of the locals is apparently in possession of advanced computer circuitry, but doesn\u2019t know exactly what it is. Even if he saves Donna and tracks down the alien attempting to influence history, the Doctor still can\u2019t save the people of Pompeii.\nwritten by James Moran\nGuest Cast: Phil Cornwell (Stallholder), Karen Gillan (Soothsayer), Sasha Behar (Spurrina), Lorraine Burroughs (Thalina), Peter Capaldi (Caecilius), Tracey Childs (Metella), Francesca Fowler (Evelina), Francois Pandolfo (Quintus), Victoria Wicks (High Priestess), Gerard Bell (Major Domo), Phil Davis (Lucius)\nNotes: Depending on how official you consider the Big Finish audio plays to be, Pompeii in 79 A.D. was positively crawling with incarnations of the Doctor; somewhere across town, the seventh Doctor and Melanie were also trying to escape the eruption of Pompeii in the audio story The Fires Of Vulcan \u2013 though they weren\u2019t trying to battle an alien influence. Guest star Karen Gillan later went on to play the part of the eleventh Doctor\u2019s companion, Amy Pond.\nDonna\u2019s first visit to the future brings the TARDIS to a barren, snowy planet, where she and the Doctor find a dying Ood. But before it dies, it says \u201cthe circle must be broken\u201d and then glares at them with red eyes \u2013 the same sign of malignant external mind control that the Doctor witnessed in his last encounter with the Ood. The Doctor and Donna spot signs of civilization, though Donna becomes less convinced of that when she discovers that it\u2019s a sales and distribution center for Ood slaves. Donna is disgusted that the advanced society that humanity has become is still relying on slave labor, but the Doctor is curious as to what is driving some Ood to calmly kill their masters, and what is causing others to fly into a deadly berserker rage. Then the time travelers discover the secret that is taken from the Ood before they are \u201cprocessed\u201d into docile servants\u2026but that secret may die with them as the Ood revolt against all humans on the planet en masse.\nwritten by Keith Temple\nGuest Cast: Tim McInnery (Mr. Halpen), Ayesha Dharker (Salana Mercurio), Adrian Rawlins (Dr. Ryder), Roger Griffiths (Commander Kess), Paul Clayton (Mr. Bartle), Paul Kasey (Ood Sigma), Tariq Jordan (Rep), Silas Carson (voice of the Ood)\nNotes: The Ood were introduced in season two of the new series in the two-part story The Impossible Planet / The Satan Pit, during which time they succumbed to \u201cred eye\u201d for entirely different reasons.\nA call from Martha brings the TARDIS back to Earth, just in time for Donna and the Doctor to witness a UNIT raid on the Atmos factory. Standard-issue in more than half the automobiles in the world, Atmos cancels out all harmful pollution emissions from any car \u2013 and the Doctor recognizes it as something far ahead of current human technology. But as everyone knows, Atmos is the invention of former teen prodigy Luke Rattigan, who now heads his own academy for developing young genius. A visit to Rattigan\u2019s academy reveals that he is in league with a Sontaran invasion force, a discovery from which the Doctor barely escapes alive. He decides to dissect an Atmos device for himself, only to accidentally trigger a weapon within it that emits toxic gas. Using a clone of Martha to keep UNIT\u2019s attention away from the real danger, the Sontarans activate all of the gas emitters in all of the Atmos-equipped cars worldwide\u2026\nwritten by Helen Raynor\nGuest Cast: Freema Agyeman (Dr. Martha Jones), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Ryan Simpson (Luke Rattigan), Rupert Holliday Evans (Colonel Mace), Christopher Ryan (General Staal), Dan Starkey (Commander Skorr), Eleanor Matsuura (Jo Nakashima), Clive Standen (Private Harris), Wesley Theobald (Private Gray), Christian Cooke (Ross Jenkins), Rad Kaim (Worker), Elizabeth Ryder (Atmos voice)\nNotes: The Sontarans last appeared with The Two Doctors (namely Colin Baker and Patrick Troughton) in 1985, though fanmade productions such as Mindgame and Shakedown revisited them after the cancellation of classic Doctor Who. This is the first episode to give, in dialogue, the revised name for UNIT \u2013 the Unified Intelligence Taskforce \u2013 which was changed from the original name, United Nations Intelligence Taskforce, for completely non-fictional legal reasons. Despite the change, dialogue elsewhere in the episode still says that UNIT gets its funding from the United Nations. Speaking of UNIT, a bit of fun is poked at the long-standing debate over whether the third Doctor\u2018s stint with UNIT took place in the 1970s or 1980s \u2013 and the issue certainly isn\u2019t resolved. The Sontarans are apparently aware of the Time War, but for whatever reason were \u201cnot allowed to take part in it.\u201d The reference to the human female\u2019s \u201cweak thorax\u201d is a riff on the 1975 story The Sontaran Experiment, in which Field Major Styre noted differences in the thorax between the human genders.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, Martha Jones, Sontarans, The Tenth Doctor, U.N.I.T., Wilfred Mott\nA worldwide crisis is declared as Atmos-equipped cars across the globe poison the atmosphere with toxic gases. Meanwhile, the Sontarans\u2019 clone of Martha continues to undermine UNIT\u2019s preparations for all-out war against the invaders, but she\u2019s also been noticed by the Doctor, who uses her to find the real Martha and discover why the Sontarans \u2013 usually a race that craves all-out war \u2013 are sneaking around with tactics such as poisoning the atmosphere. But the TARDIS is not at his disposal: the Sontarans have teleported it to their ship, with Donna inside. As he uncovers the plan to terraform Earth into a world suitable for breeding more cloned Sontaran warriors, the Doctor has a life-or-death choice to make \u2013 and he has to offer one to the Sontarans as well.\nGuest Cast: Freema Agyeman (Dr. Martha Jones), Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Ryan Simpson (Luke Rattigan), Rupert Holliday Evans (Colonel Mace), Christopher Ryan (General Staal), Dan Starkey (Commander Skorr), Clive Standen (Private Harris), Wesley Theobald (Private Gray), Christian Cooke (Ross Jenkins), Meryl Fernandes (Female Student), Leeshon Alexander (Male Student), Bridget Hodgson (Captain Price), Kirsty Wark (herself), Lachelle Carl (US Newsreader)\nNotes: The Brigadier gets his first mention in the new series, even though he isn\u2019t seen; apparently there\u2019s only one Brigadier serving in UNIT, since Colonel Mace seems to instantly know who the Doctor is talking about.\nThe Doctor and Donna \u2013 with Martha along as an unwitting passenger due to the TARDIS\u2019 unexpected takeoff \u2013 arrive in a war-torn underground world where the Doctor is immediately held at gunpoint by soldiers and subjected to a mechanical tissue sampling process that uses his DNA to create a new soldier \u2013 a young girl with a brilliant mind, two hearts, and, like the rest of the human soldiers, a genetically-programmed knowledge of the long war between the humans and the fishlike Hath. She immediately joins in a pitched battle against the Hath, and winds up saving her human comrades \u2013 but not before the Hath have abducted Martha. The Doctor\u2019s \u201cdaughter\u201d \u2013 to whom Donna gives the name Jenny \u2013 is locked up with the time travelers for fear that she\u2019s been swayed by the Doctor\u2019s promise to stop the humans from committing genocide against the Hath, and vice-versa. Jenny proves to be as resourceful, and ultimately as compassionate, as the Doctor herself\u2026but when she becomes the key to ending the bloodshed, she may also find out whether or not she can regenerate.\nwritten by Stephen Greenhorn\nGuest Cast: Freema Agyeman (Dr. Martha Jones), Georgia Moffett (Jenny), Nigel Terry (Cobb), Joe Dempsie (Cline), Paul Kasey (Hath Peck), Ruari Mears (Hath Gable), Akin Gazi (Carter), Olalekan Lawal Jr. (Soldier)\nNotes: Actress Georgia Moffett really is the Doctor\u2019s daughter \u2013 just not this Doctor. She\u2019s the daughter of Peter Davison, who played the Doctor from 1982 through 1984, and only recently reprised his role on TV in the Children In Need special scene Time Crash. She guest starred in one of Davison\u2019s Big Finish audios, Red Dawn, in 2000, and in 2004 she auditioned for the part of Rose Tyler; she married David Tennant after his departure from Doctor Who. This title of this episode may or may not be a play on the classic production staff in-joke title of The Doctor\u2019s Wife \u2013 a story title, fictitiously attributed to Robert Holmes, which was posted openly in the Doctor Who production offices circa 1985 by then-producer John Nathan-Turner in an attempt to find out which production staffer was leaking story details prematurely to fanzines. Though the mole in Nathan-Turner\u2019s office was never pinpointed, some UK fanzines did indeed announce that The Doctor\u2019s Wife was in production for the coming season.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, Martha Jones, The Tenth Doctor\nThe TARDIS brings the Doctor and Donna to the 1920s, to an ordinary cocktail party with an extraordinary guest \u2013 murder mystery author Agatha Christie. And right on cue, a murder takes place at the party, and the Doctor tries to enlist the famed writer\u2019s help in narrowing down a list of suspects whose alibis have no witness to back them up. Donna searches for clues, and discovers quite a big one \u2013 a huge wasp at least as big as a human being. She narrowly avoids its deadly stinger, and at the same time, a jewel thief is at large in the house. But is the killer related to the jewel thief\u2026or the wasp? And after solving a mystery whose perpetrator is not of this Earth, will Agatha Christie ever be the same again?\nwritten by Gareth Roberts\nGuest Cast: Fenella Woolgar (Agatha Christie), Felicity Kendal (Lady Eddison), Tom Goodman-Hill (Reverend Golightly), Christopher Benjamin (Colonel Hugh), Felicity Jones (Robina Redmond), Adam Rayner (Roger Curbishley), David Quilter (Greeves), Daniel King (Davenport), Ian Barritt (Professor Peach), Leena Dhingra (Miss Chandrakala), Charlotte Eaton (Mrs. Hart)\nNotes: Guest star Christopher Benjamin appeared in two much-loved adventures from classic Doctor Who, the 1970 Jon Pertwee epic Inferno, in which he played well-meaning bureaucrat Sir Keith Gold, and 1977\u2019s Talons Of Weng-Chiang, in which he guest starred as irrepressible showman Henry Gordon Jago \u2013 a character who, with Talons sidekick Professor Litefoot, was briefly considered a candidate for an early Doctor Who spinoff which never \u2013 if you\u2019ll pardon the pun \u2013 materialized. Agatha Christie\u2019s amnesiac interlude actually happened, though generally history doesn\u2019t record the whole giant wasp incident in connection with that.\nThe Doctor\u2019s psychic paper receives a distress call from a library so huge it takes up an entire planet. But when he and Donna arrive, the entire library is deserted \u2013 they\u2019re the only two humanoids there. The Doctor expands the sensors to detect other life forms, and this time millions of millions are picked up \u2013 but none that the time travelers can see. Another expedition arrives to solve the mystery of the empty library, and this provides another puzzle for the Doctor when he discovers that Professor River Song, the expedition\u2019s archaeologist, has apparently met him and knows him quite well \u2013 but she knows him in his own future, and can\u2019t say any more than that. An automated node in the library warns the Doctor and Donna to count the shadows \u2013 and then warns them to run. When two members of the expedition die, consumed by the shadows, the Doctor realizes what they\u2019re up against\u2026but that realization comes too late to save Donna. Meanwhile, somewhere across the galaxy, someone else seems to know exactly what\u2019s happening in the library\u2026\nGuest Cast: Alex Kingston (Professor River Song), Colin Salmon (Dr. Moon), Eve Newton (The Girl), Mark Dexter (Dad), Sarah Niles (Node 1), Joshua Dallas (Node 2), Jessika Williams (Anita), Steve Pemberton (Strackman Lux), Talulah Riley (Miss Evangelista), O-T Fagbenle (Other Dave), Harry Peacock (Proper Dave)\nNotes: Alex Kingston is best known to American audiences for a stint on the long-running hospital drama ER, while Colin Salmon took over the role of Avon in a recent audio drama revival of the classic BBC science fiction series Blake\u2019s 7.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, River Song, The Tenth Doctor\nSnatched out of the TARDIS in mid-teleport, Donna finds herself in an artificial world, where she meets the man of her dreams, has children, and enjoys a normal life with no sign of the Doctor or the TARDIS\u2026until he suddenly appears in the place of her therapist, Dr. Moon, who she seems to see quite regularly. In the library, the Doctor\u2019s attempts to detect his shadowy adversaries are being jammed by something, somewhere, and the ranks of the expedition are dwindling as more of its crew are consumed. Only the enigmatic Professor River Song can be of any real help to him, but the Doctor is still worried about how well she knows him \u2013 especially after she whispers one word to him that proves she knows him very well, and again when she proves that she\u2019s more than willing to sacrifice her life to save him. Donna runs into a familiar face in the virtual construct, another victim of the Vashta Nerada who clues her in to the true nature of her new life, and she begins to question everything as her artificial world starts to collapse on itself. The Doctor realizes that Donna \u2013 and almost everyone else who was in the library before the shadows fell \u2013 have been saved in the Library\u2019s massive computer core, but as the Vashta Nerada try to claim the library world and bring it to the brink of destruction, they may not leave him enough time to recover the survivors.\nGuest Cast: Alex Kingston (Professor River Song), Colin Salmon (Dr. Moon), Harry Peacock (Proper Dave), Steve Pemberton (Strackman Lux), Jessika Williams (Anita), O-T Fagbenle (Other Dave), Eve Newton (The Girl), Mark Dexter (Dad), Jason Pitt (Lee), Eloise Rakic-Platt (Ella), Alex Midwood (Joshua), Talulah Riley (Miss Evangelista), Jonathan Reuben (Man)\nOriginal Title: River\u2019s Run\nThe Doctor is eager to take a trip to the uninhabitable planet of Midnight, whose sun\u2019s radiation renders the surface completely inhospitable to any known kind of life \u2013 or so the legend has it. Faced with the choice of either this or sunbathing next to an opulent swimming pool, Donna lets the Doctor go off on his own for once. The Doctor gets acquainted with fellow passengers along the way, but when the tour ship comes to a sudden halt, so does the cameraderie \u2013 especially when the pilots\u2019 cabin is wrenched away from the ship and something begins knocking on the hull from outside. One of the passengers is apparently taken over by some form of life which has defied expectations and evolved on Midnight, and in its new body it begins rapidly learning about human characteristics such as speech. But when the other passengers become terrified enough to discuss throwing the possessed woman out of the ship to certain doom, just to rid themselves of the alien life form, it appears that the being is learning some of humanity\u2019s darkest behaviors too. And this time, there\u2019s almost nothing the Doctor can do to stop the worst from coming out of everyone present.\nGuest Cast: Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Lesley Sharp (Sky Silvestry), Rakie Ayola (Hostess), David Troughton (Professor Hobbes), Ayesha Antoine (Dee Dee Blasco), Lindsey Coulson (Val Cane), Daniel Ryan (Biff Cane), Colin Morgan (Jethro Cane), Tony Bluto (Driver Joe), Duane Henry (Mechanic Claude)\nNotes: A few episodes after meeting the Doctor\u2019s daughter, this time around we meet the Doctor\u2019s son \u2013 in real life. Guest star David Troughton is the son of the second Doctor, Patrick Troughton, and played a minor role in the last second Doctor story, The War Games, in 1969. He played a much more visible role opposite the third Doctor in 1972\u2019s The Curse Of Peladon. Like his father, he\u2019s no relation to this episode\u2019s director, Alice Troughton, who has also directed installments of Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, Rose Tyler, The Tenth Doctor\nDuring a visit to a futuristic Chinatown, Donna is lured into a fortune teller\u2019s booth, where her fortunes aren\u2019t so much predicted as changed drastically. She finds herself over a year in the past, at the moment when she decided to take a job her mother found for her instead of going to work as a temp at H.C. Clemens \u2013 where she was working when her path became inextricably linked with the Doctor\u2019s. History changes. Without Donna to convince him to show the Empress of the Racnoss some mercy, the Doctor\u2019s mission to stop the Empress becomes a suicide mission. UNIT finds the Doctor\u2019s body, having suffered too much damage to regenerate \u2013 the last of the Time Lords has died. Without the Doctor, history unfolds very differently, but few notice the divergence until the moment when the starship Titanic slams into Buckingham Palace and its reactor goes critical on impact, destroying London totally. Donna and her family are assigned to a home in Leeds in a besieged and increasingly xenophobic Britain, a world that they would never have chosen to live in. Further events that would have been stopped by the Doctor continue to drastically alter the world: America is laid to waste by the Adipose incident, while the Atmos devices choke millions across the globe. And with each disaster, a young woman named Rose appears to Donna, insisting that she is the most important woman in human history \u2013 Donna must go with Rose to fulfill her destiny and set history back on its rightful course. But why should Donna Noble believe a total stranger who claims to be from another dimension of reality?\nGuest Cast: Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Joseph Long (Rocco Colasanto), Noma Dumezweni (Capt. Magambo), Chipo Chung (Fortune Teller), Marcia Lecky (Mooky Kahari), Suzann McLean (Veena Brady), Natalie Walter (Alice Coltrane), Neil Clench (Man in pub), Clive Standen (UNIT Soldier), Bhasker Patel (Jival Chowdry), Catherine York (Female Reporter), Ben Righton (Morgenstern), Loraine Velez (Spanish Maid), Jason Mohammad (Studio News Reader), Sanchia McCormack (Housing Officer), Lawrence Stevenson (Soldier #1), Terri-Ann Brumby (Woman in doorway), Lachele Carl (Trinity Wells), Paul Richard Biggin (Soldier #2)\nAppearing in footage from The Runaway Bride: Sarah Parish (Empress)\nNotes: The Trickster is mentioned as being the architect of the beetle-like creature on Donna\u2019s back; though he isn\u2019t actually seen in this episode, the Trickster did feature prominently in the Sarah Jane Adventures story Whatever Happened To Sarah Jane?, in which he threatened to remove the Doctor from time; presumably Turn Left is where he tried to make good on that threat. Sarah Jane and her three young friends from that spinoff series, Luke, Maria and Clyde, are said to have been in the same hospital where Martha Jones worked (and died), and in the absence of the Doctor, Sarah is said to have prevented the Earth from being blasted by an accelerated MRI machine (as seen in Smith And Jones), paying for that bravery with her life and the lives of her young friends. Similarly, Captain Jack, Gwen and Ianto of Torchwood apparently prevent the Sontaran takeover of Earth (The Poison Sky) at the cost of their own lives. Chipo Chung guest starred in the 11th episode of season three as well, as Chantho, while Lachele Carl\u2019s American news anchor \u2013 after appearing in episodes since the first season and even appearing in the same role in the Sarah Jane Adventures \u2013 finally picks up a name.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, Rose Tyler, The Tenth Doctor, U.N.I.T., Wilfred Mott\nConfronted with the imminent arrival of Rose from the alternate universe, the Doctor and Donna make a quick jump to modern-day Earth, finding that everything is all right and returning to the TARDIS. But a sudden displacement of time and space leaves the TARDIS floating in space \u2013 without Earth. The Doctor flies into action to try to track the planet down, even going so far as to pay an unannounced visit to the Shadow Proclamation, an intergalactic law enforcement body, where he talks his way past Judoon guards and discovers that Earth isn\u2019t the only planet missing: the Shadow Proclamation has placed the entire universe on alert. Taking note of the mass and properties of the missing worlds, the Doctor hypothesizes that the planets may have been stolen to become components of a massive engine, generating energy on a scale not seen since the creation of the universe. The representatives of the Shadow Proclamation are prepared to go into battle, but only if the Doctor surrenders his TARDIS; he opts to go it alone instead.\nOn Earth, chaos has broken out. Night has fallen around the world, and the sky is now teeming with unfamiliar planets. At UNIT HQ in New York City, at Torchwood in Cardiff and at Sarah Jane Smith\u2019s home in Ealing, former companions of the Doctor are among the first to hear a message transmitted from an oncoming barrage of spacecraft: a Dalek voice endlessly repeating the word \u201cexterminate\u201d. The Daleks attack the planet, concentrating their firepower on military installations or entities that have prior knowledge of the Daleks: Torchwood and UNIT are among the first targets. An unlikely ally unites Martha, Torchwood and Sarah, using a technology invented for an emergency in which the Doctor hasn\u2019t arrived to save the day. But the TARDIS does indeed make its way to Earth, finding the stolen planets time-shifted within the Medusa Cascade. The Doctor discovers that Davros, creator of the Daleks, has survived the Time War and bred a new race of Daleks to do his bidding. As the Doctor\u2019s former companions race to join up with him, Torchwood comes under Dalek attack and Gwen and Ianto are left to fend for themselves. Sarah finds herself at the mercy of the Daleks, and even when Rose finds the TARDIS, it may not be enough to save the Doctor when he finds himself in a Dalek\u2019s gunsights.\nGuest Cast: Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones), John Barrowman (Captain Jack Harkness), Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith), Penelope Wilton (Harriet Jones), Adjoa Andoh (Francine Jones), Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones), Eve Myles (Gwen Cooper), Thomas Knight (Luke Smith), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Julian Bleach (Davros), Michael Brandon (General Sanchez), Andrea Harris (Suzanne), Lachele Carl (Trinity Wells), Richard Dawkins (himself), Paul O\u2019Grady (himself), Marcus Cunningham (Drunk Man), Jason Mohammad (Newsreader), Paul Kasey (Judoon), Kelly Hunter (Shadow Architect), Amy Beth Hayes (Albino Servant), Gary Milner (Scared Man), Barney Edwards, Nick Pegg, David Hankinson, Anthony Spargo (Dalek Operators), Nicholas Briggs (Dalek voice), Alexander Armstrong (voice of Mr. Smith)\nNotes: Davros first appeared in 1975\u2019s Genesis Of The Daleks, and returned to terrorize each of the Doctor\u2019s successive incarnations until his final appearance in 1988\u2019s Remembrance Of The Daleks. Even the cancellation of the original series didn\u2019t slow him down, as he returned to do battle twice more with the sixth Doctor, and then with Paul McGann as the eighth Doctor in Terror Firma, and even appeared in his own audio spinoff series, I, Davros. Apparently he\u2019s been missing since a battle during the first year of the Time War, which \u2013 just to drive fans crazy \u2013 remains unrecorded in either novel or audio form. Actor Julian Bleach becomes the fourth actor to play Davros, having played the Ghost Maker in an episode of Torchwood\u2019s second season. Bernard Cribbins, as Donna\u2019s grandfather, has come up against the Daleks before \u2013 42 years before this episode\u2019s premiere, in the 1966 feature film Daleks: Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. starring Peter Cushing as Doctor Who. Penelope Wilton returns as former Prime Minister Harriet Jones, not seen since the then-newly-regenerated Doctor uttered six fateful words in The Christmas Invasion. Appearing as himself, evolutionary science advocate Richard Dawkins is the husband of former Doctor Who co-star Lalla \u201cRomana\u201d Ward; coincidentally, they were introduced by former Doctor Who writer and script editor \u2013 and Hitchhiker\u2019s Guide To The Galaxy author \u2013 Douglas Adams.\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Captain Jack Harkness, Daleks, Davros, Donna Noble, Martha Jones, Rose Tyler, Sarah Jane Smith, The Tenth Doctor, U.N.I.T., Wilfred Mott\nCaught by a glancing blow from a Dalek weapon, the Doctor\u2019s body is involuntarily beginning the regeneration process \u2013 until the Doctor is able to divert the energy into his severed hand, benefitting from the restorative effects without changing his appearance or personality. On Earth, Sarah Jane is saved from the Daleks by Mickey Smith and Jackie Tyler, who have returned from the alternate universe after losing contact with Rose. The Dalek attack on the Torchwood Hub is halted by a defense mechanism that the late Toshiko Sato was developing, locking the Dalek into a moment of frozen time \u2013 but also trapping Ianto and Gwen inside, safe but unable to escape. To Mickey\u2019s disgust and Jackie\u2019s horror, Sarah surrenders herself and both of them to the Daleks, reasoning that being taken to the Dalek mothership as hostages will put her closer to the Doctor, and in a better position to help. The TARDIS is brought about the mothership by the Daleks, and the Doctor, Rose and Captain Jack step out to meet their fate \u2013 but the TARDIS doors close, trapping Donna inside. Declaring the time machine and anyone who is still inside it a threat, the Dalek Supreme orders the TARDIS dumped into the neutrino core of his own ship, where it will dissolve and surrender its energy to the Dalek war effort. But when Donna reaches for the Doctor\u2019s severed hand, she sets other events into motion which the Daleks can\u2019t possibly have foreseen. Davros is planning the destruction of the entire cosmos, every universe, every alternate universe, and every dimension, to prove himself a god, and nothing the Doctor says can dissuade the mad Dalek creator from his plans. Martha, Sarah, Jack, Mickey and Jackie join forces to put an end to Davros\u2019 plan, but he has anticipated their interference. But he hasn\u2019t anticipated Donna\u2019s next move \u2013 and he certainly hasn\u2019t anticipated whose help she has.\nGuest Cast: Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones), John Barrowman (Captain Jack Harkness), Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith), Camille Coduri (Jackie Tyler), Noel Clarke (Mickey Smith), Adjoa Andoh (Francine Jones), Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones), Eve Myles (Gwen Cooper), Thomas Knight (Luke Smith), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Julian Bleach (Davros), Valda Aviks (German Woman), Shobu Kapoor (Scared Woman), Elizabeth Tan (Chinese Woman), Michael Price (Liberian Man), Barney Edwards, Nick Pegg, David Hankinson, Anthony Spargo (Dalek Operators), Nicholas Briggs (Dalek voice), John Leeson (voice of K-9), Alexander Armstrong (voice of Mr. Smith)\nDoctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Captain Jack Harkness, Daleks, Davros, Donna Noble, Jackie Tyler, K-9, Main cast member leaves, Mickey Smith, Rose Tyler, Sarah Jane Smith, Season Finale, The Tenth Doctor, Wilfred Mott\nThe End Of Time \u2013 Part 1\nNightmares plague the human race; every nightmare features the same laughing face \u2013 the face of a man that the world once knew as Harold Saxon. Most people forget the nightmares and are vaguely troubled the next day, but one man retains his memory of each incident \u2013 Wilfred Mott, Donna\u2019s grandfather, who immediately begins to keep a watchful eye out for the Doctor\u2019s return.\nThe Doctor, on the other hand, seems to be in no hurry to rush to the rescue. After events on Mars, he\u2019s actively avoiding situations where he must save the day, but a visit to Oodsphere changes that. The Ood are also experiencing nightmares involving the Master, as well as a disjointed series of images of other people, including Wilfred and Donna. The Doctor returns to Earth and discovers that a cultish group of followers has resurrected the Master\u2019s body, and the twisted Time Lord is now more powerful than ever, with abilities far beyond those of a normal Time Lord, and a bottomless appetite as a result. But not all-powerful: the Master is abducted before the Doctor\u2019s eyes.\nWith Wilfred\u2019s help, the Doctor tracks the Master down to the mansion of billionaire Joseph Naismith, who hopes to enlist the Master\u2019s help to gain control over an alien artifact called the Immortality Gate. But the Master, even though he\u2019s working at the point of a gun, has his own plans for the Gate \u2013 plans to achieve dominance over the human race and remake it in his own image.\nCast: David Tennant (The Doctor), John Simm (The Master), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Timothy Dalton (The Narrator), Catherine Tate (Donna Noble), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Claire Bloom (The Woman), June Whitfield (Minnie Hooper), David Harewood (Joshua Naismith), Tracy Ifeachor (Abigail Naismith), Sinead Keenan (Addams), Lawry Lewin (Rossiter), Alexandra Moen (Lucy Saxon), Karl Collins (Shaun Temple), Teresa Banham (Governor), Barry Howard (Oliver Barnes), Allister Bain (Winston Katusi), Simon Thomas (Mr. Danes), Sylvia Seymour (Miss Trefusis), Pete Lee-Wilson (Tommo), Dwayne Scantlebury (Ginger), Lacey Bond (Serving Woman), Lachele Carl (Trinity Wells), Paul Kasey (Ood Sigma), Ruari Mears (Elder Ood), Max Benjamin (Teenager), Silas Carson (voice of Ood Sigma), Brian Cox (voice of Elder Ood)\nNotes: Naismith says that the Immortality Gate was originally recovered and held by Torchwood, and that he acquired it after Torchwood fell; this could either be referring to the fall of the London branch of Torchwood in Doomsday, or the destruction of Torchwood Cardiff in Children Of Earth. This episode marks the first time Bernard Cribbins has stepped into the TARDIS since the 1966 film Daleks: Invasion Earth 2150 A.D., in which he co-starred with Peter Cushing as the Doctor.\n2008-2009 Specials, Doctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Donna Noble, The Master, The Tenth Doctor, Time Lords, Wilfred Mott\nThe Master has twisted the Immortality Gate into his own weapon, projecting himself as a template onto every human on Earth: every human on Earth is now the Master. The two aliens working undercover in Naismith\u2019s operation are unaffected, and Wilfred is unaffected as well, stuck in the Master\u2019s isolation booth. But the only other human not possessed by the Master is Donna Noble, whose adventures with the Doctor are flooding back into her mind. Wilfred urges her to run, but soon the amount of information crowding her human brain causes her to collapse. The Master interrogates the Doctor, demanding to know the whereabouts of the TARDIS, but this grueling interrogation is soon interrupted by the two aliens, who teleport themselves, the Doctor and Wilfred to their ship in orbit.\nAn alien artifact arrives on Earth, a piece of the extinct world of Gallifrey, and only then does the Master realize what the drumbeat in his head is: the rhythm of a Time Lord\u2019s hearts. The Master uses this piece of Gallifrey to establish a link, and the entire planet of Gallifrey materializes close enough to Earth that tidal forces begin tearing the smaller planet apart. The Time Lords, desperate to escape their imminent doom in the Time War, have broken free by sending their distress signal \u2013 the drumbeat \u2013 back in time. They created the Master and made him a madman, all to compel him to provide an escape route for Gallifrey. The Lord President and members of the High Council of the Time Lords arrive on Earth, where the Master demands their obedience and just as quickly discovers that the Lord President is ready to eliminate him: the Master has served his purpose where the Time Lords are concerned. The Doctor cuts Gallifrey\u2019s link to Earth as the Master and the Time Lord President do battle; the planet of the Time Lords disappears again, taking the Master with it.\nBut it is only after the crisis is averted that the Doctor realizes that the prophecy of his own death has nothing to do with the Time Lords or the Master.\nCast: David Tennant (The Doctor), John Simm (The Master), Bernard Cribbins (Wilfred Mott), Timothy Dalton (Lord President), Catherine Tate (Donna Noble), Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble), Billie Piper (Rose Tyler), Camille Coduri (Jackie Tyler), John Barrowman (Captain Jack Harkness), Freema Agyeman (Martha Smith-Jones), Noel Clarke (Mickey Smith), Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith), Jessica Hynes (Verity Newman), June Whitfield (Minnie Hooper), Claire Bloom (The Woman), Thomas Knight (Luke Smith), Russell Tovey (Midshipman Frame), David Harewood (Joshua Naismith), Tracy Ifeachor (Abigail Naismith), Lawry Lewin (Rossiter), Sinead Keenan (Addams), Joe Dixon (The Chancellor), Julie LeGrand (The Partisan), Brid Brennan (The Visionary), Karl Collins (Shaun Temple), Krystal Archer (Nerys), Lachele Carl (Trinity Wells), Paul Kasey (Ood Sigma), Ruari Mears (Elder Ood), Silas Carson (voice of Ood Sigma), Nicholas Briggs (voice of Judoon), Dan Starkey (Sontaran), Matt Smith (The Doctor)\n2008-2009 Specials, Doctor Who, New Series Season 04\tBBC1, Captain Jack Harkness, Donna Noble, Jackie Tyler, Main cast member leaves, Martha Jones, Mickey Smith, Regeneration, Rose Tyler, Sarah Jane Smith, Slitheen, Sontarans, The Eleventh Doctor, The Master, The Tenth Doctor, Time Lords, Wilfred Mott\nThe Doctor and Donna visit London\u2019s Museum of Modern Technology in 2016, where they find not only the latest in cutting-edge tech, but the staff slowly losing their minds and cowering fearfully from anything electronic or electrical in nature. Aliens stalk the Museum, claiming the minds and lives of anyone who find them there. The time travelers flee into the Underground train system, stumbling across the aliens\u2019 base of operations. These aliens, the Cognoscenti, invade by first devolving the minds of their invasion targets en masse, reducing them to a non-technological civilization incapable of mounting a resistance against a sophisticated enemy. But the Cognoscenti didn\u2019t know the Doctor would be here \u2013 and after exposure to their mind-draining weapon, even the Doctor doesn\u2019t know how to save the day.\nwritten by Matt Fitton\nCast: David Tennant (The Doctor), Catherine Tate (Donna), Niky Wardley (Bex), Rachael Stirling (Jill Meadows), Chook Sibtain (Brian), Rory Keenan (Kevin), Jot Davies (Lukas)\n10th Doctor, Doctor Who, The Audio Dramas\tDonna Noble, The Tenth Doctor\nIt\u2019s Donna Noble\u2019s luckiest day. A seemingly uneventful stop along the French Riviera puts Donna in the path of a foreign prince, and it seems \u2013 at least for a while \u2013 that she\u2019s found true love. The sitting Queen is less than impressed with Donna, but grudgingly tolerates her. Neither the Queen nor the future Queen-to-be are overjoyed when the Doctor comes to call on Donna\u2019s wedding day, but a wayward time traveler suddenly seems like less of a problem when a cloud appears outside the castle, declaring in a booming voice that death has come to the kingdom. Prince Rudolph sends his men into battle, and into the maw of certain death, and suddenly his future bride is uncertain about their future together\u2026especially when she learns that becoming engaged to the Prince means being married to Death itself. Once again, Donna\u2019s life depends on the Doctor ruining her wedding day\u2026\nCast: David Tennant (The Doctor), Catherine Tate (Donna), Blake Ritson (Rudolph), Alice Krige (Queen Mum), Beth Chalmers (Hortense), Alan Cox (Death)",

        "raw_content": "Ohio: Longer Yellows Cut Violations in Columbus, Springfield\nOhio law mandates an extra second of yellow time, violations plunge by more than half in Columbus and Springfield.\nAn extra second of yellow time is costing Ohio municipalities millions of dollars in annual revenue. The General Assembly in 2008 enacted a law requiring all cities using red light cameras to lengthen the duration of the warning given to motorists approaching a photo enforced intersection. Cities were given until March 12, 2009 to make the change, and the cities that complied saw a dramatic reduction in violations.\nIn Springfield, cameras have issued automated tickets at ten intersections since 2006. Before the yellow timing law took effect, the city's for-profit vendor issued an average of 18,185 citations annually. Between 2009 and 2013, warning times increased to between 4.6 and 5.0 seconds at the intersections with cameras, and the average number of tickets issued dropped 63 percent to 6707 citations annually. This plunge represents a net loss of $4.9 million in revenue.\nContrary to the assertions of the photo ticketing industry, the effect of the lengthened yellows did not diminish over time. Last year, the 6091 tickets were issued, a 67 percent drop from the number of tickets issued in the shortened yellow period of 2008.\nIn Columbus, the number of tickets issued with shortened yellows dropped from 38,182 in 2008 to 17,018 in the lengthened yellow period of 2010 -- a 55 percent reduction.\nMost Columbus intersections saw their yellow times increase from 3.6 seconds to 4.6 seconds, in compliance with the law. Longer term analysis of the change is more difficult because Columbus dealt with the loss of revenue by, in 2012, doubling the number of cameras used.\nNot all cities have followed the law. As TheNewspaper reported in October, the city of Dayton has is issuing tickets at intersections where the yellow time was not increased, as required.\nEach fraction of a second difference in yellow time can have a significant influence on the number of red light camera citations issued. The majority of straight-through red light \"violations\" happen when a driver misjudges the end of the yellow light by less than 0.25 seconds -- literally the blink of an eye (view Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) chart). In most cases, a yellow shortened by one second can increase the number of tickets issued by 110 percent, according to TTI (view report).",

The age old fight for not dominance, but to communicate and coexist together. The fights take many forms, a missed call or a secretive text. Sometimes, it's a full blown war due to a simple lack of communication and all of the messy, dirty conversations and arguments that stem from it. It's all the same. But I feel that something needs to be said regarding this battle:\nFellas, we are not equipped to win this war. Sorry to tell you all this, but it's a simple fact of life.

However, I wish that I could say I had some control over any of this.If any of the things happening around me were my fault, I could find solace in the fact that as a rock tossed into a pond causes ripples that affect the surface of the still water, so must I always be aware that my actions affect all those around me.

        "title": "Tim Wadsworth: One Sentence Can Change Someones Life",
        "raw_content": "One Sentence Can Change Someones Life\nHave you ever been awestruck? Have you ever had the chance to meet someone that was considered iconic? Your hands start to sweat and you start rapidly thinking of what you're even going to say to them once you meet. You make sure your iPhone is ready to take a picture and wipe those sweaty hands on the side of your jeans. Then you make eye contact..... with a baseball legend.\nThis past week I had the opportunity to meet Bobby Cox. Bobby was a manager in professional baseball for 29 years. Out of those 29 years, 24 of them were spent with The Atlanta Braves. On top of countless other MLB accolades, he led the Atlanta Braves to a World Series championship in 1995. He holds the all-time record for ejections in baseball with 158 (plus an additional three post-season ejections). Cox ranks fourth on the baseball all-time managerial wins list. I can go on and on about his career and how the 90's were nothing short of spectacular in ATL. But this was a moment in time that I will remember forever. Not because I was meeting a Baseball Hall of Famer, but because of the quick one minute story he told me. Right before I sat down with him in the Braves dugout in SunTrust park, I finally landed on the question I wanted to ask him. I said \"Bobby, what was it like to play baseball alongside Mickey Mantle?\" He looked at me and said\n\"You know.... One day Mickey walked up to me and said I was just a mediocre player. That If I wanted a long career in Baseball that I should consider managing instead. So I did. And I think he was right.\"\nAnd just like that my time with Bobby was up. There was a line of other people forming behind me and his media crew politely moving me along. He signed a baseball for me, too, which proudly hangs in my Braves memorabilia room - AKA my youngest sons bedroom. But while I was walking away, I was more blown away with his story than the fact that I got to meet him and get an autographed Baseball.\nWhat blew me away was that one sentence changed the trajectory of this mans life. One sentence! And not even that nice of a sentence. One that probably stung for Bobby to hear, especially coming from Mickey. But what if Mantle never spoke those words? What if Mantle just kept his mouth shut or told Bobby what he wanted to hear? Without those words spoken, we wouldn't have the ripple effect that it has made in America's pastime. Because of those words, think about the ramifications it has had across the board in so many other peoples life.\nSometimes we really don't lean into the depth of our words.\nProverbs 18:21 says \"The tongue has the power of life and death\" but in so many ways I don't live with the reality of this. So many times I just nonchalantly say something or cave into fear of man. But something that strongly encouraged me, especially as a leader in the Church, was to speak boldly and unapologetically. But with the mindset that I wanted my words to bring life. Not death. Thankfully, The Holy Spirit will do the rest but my job is to just be faithful and love with my words.\nIs this true for you? Can someone say there life was radically changed by one sentence you spoke to them? I have now changed the way I look at every conversation I has with other individuals. I would encourage you to do the same. One sentence at a time.",

        "title": "Telling The Stories That Matter: March 3 - John Wesley, Preacher, Evangelist, Brand Plucked from the Fire",
        "raw_content": "March 3 - John Wesley, Preacher, Evangelist, Brand Plucked from the Fire\nJohn Wesley was the fifteenth child in his large English family. Their family was heavily influenced by the faith of the past and the present. John's grandfather has been a Puritan minister and his own father was rector in Epworth when John was born. It was important to the Wesley family to be involved in the life of the Church and it was in the stories and words of the Body of Christ that they found meaning and direction. The profound impact of John's early years in the Church cannot be fully understood or charted. In many ways, it would have been unsurprising years later to find John Wesley among the cultured and refined members whose faith has become little more than adherence to habits of attendance and patterns of speech. Yet, there was a particular moment when he was five years old that seems to have started him along a path away from bored and inherited faith and toward a life of discipline and spiritual formation. The rectory where they lived caught fire while John was in the home. As the walls were consumed in flame and smoke began to choke the life from his young body, he was saved from the fire by some family member who picked him up and carried him out of fiery death. He would remark years later that he felt he had been like a brand plucked from the fire for some special purpose and that he was continually provoked to question why it was he had not been burned to death on that night.\nAs he grew older his faith was challenged and tested as all faith is and he began to drift away from the faith of family and into the reluctant agnosticism of cynical adolescence.He was bullied and abused by many of his peers and this left a painful mark on him for the rest of his life--even causing him to tremble as a grown man when he about the adolescent savagery of which he had been the victim. As pain and depression further marked his life's attentions he stopped practicing the faith he had been taught and given and instead hoped--like so many did and still often do--that it would be enough only to think his faith. After all this was when he first encountered the Moravians who met in Aldersgate Street in London. He had shown up at their meeting because he had been impressed at the peace of mind of a handful of Moravians on a previous sea voyage when a storm had buffeted and rocked the ship he was on. Perhaps seeking a renewal of his faith or perhaps simply homesick for a simpler time he attended one of their services on Aldersgate and something incredible happened. Looking back, he would write that he felt his heart strangely warmed as he listened to the scripture being read. It was here that he would be renewed in his faith and learn to claim it as his own.\nFor years he worked with Moravians and helped craft a way of doing Church that emphasized regular small group participation, living out the faith while learning about it, and mutual accountability and vulnerability within the walls of the Church. Abandoning the tendency of the Church to become an institution instead of a movement, John insisted that the spiritual life was something that deserved and required special attention. Instead of simply hoping that right doctrine and thought would be enough John called for all Christians to join right practice with right thought. From that moment with the Moravians he personally worked to effect salvation and redemption in his own life and in the lives of those close to him. And there were many who were close to John Wesley since he spent so much time riding his horse and preaching to any who would listen whether in the pulpit of a church or in a field for all interested ears. John felt strongly that God has plucked him from the fire so that he might bring about revival in the Church which he was so certain was in desperate need of new life. He went out into the world and, in his own words, he \"set himself on fire and the world has come to watch me burn.\" The brand that had been plucked from the fire became a great preacher of the gospel bringing hundreds of thousands of people to a faith that changed their lives and redeemed their souls.\nAs John lay dying on March 2, 1791, he called for his friends and family and they were all too willing to come be near to him as he passed on from this life into another that he had preached and anticipated for many years. The people that drew near to him on his deathbed had had their lives changed by this man and it must have been hard to watch him die even though the too anticipated heavenly redemption for him. He held the hands of those near to him and repeated the word \"Farewell\" to each of them in turn. Having said his goodbyes, he drew a deep breath and proclaimed like the preacher he was: \"The best of all is, God is with us.\" He repeated this phrase one more time in a weaker voice and passed from this life to the next.",

        "raw_content": "Epilepsy occurring underwater is almost always fatal to an amateur diver who will lose his mouthpiece and inhale water during the clonic phase of the attack. It is known that hyperbaric oxygen induces epileptiform fits in susceptible individuals and it is possible that the raised partial pressure of oxygen in compressed air breathed at depth may induce fits in someone susceptible to epilepsy.\nAnticonvulsants cannot be used to overcome this problem underwater as they are all sedating and potentiate the effect of nitrogen narcosis, leading to disorientation at unexpectedly shallow depths.\nBecause head injury may be followed by epilepsy, the fitness of divers who have sustained this type of injury needs to be carefully considered. The following guidelines are suggested.\nThe length of post traumatic amnesia (PTA) including any period of unconsciousness may be used as an index to the severity of injury. Where PTA has been less than one hour, there should be a three week layoff from diving. With PTA of an hour to 24 hours, there should be a two month layoff. Where the period of PTA exceeds 24 hours, there inevitably has been severe brain damage and there is considerable likelihood of subsequent epilepsy and impaired mental functioning. A minimum period off diving of three months is suggested and cerebral function should have returned to normal.\nWhere enquiries are being made about an incident in the past, the individual sometimes has difficulty in recalling the period of PTA and in such cases the period of unconsciousness may be doubled as a rough guide.\nIf epilepsy should have developed as a result of injury then further diving is banned unless it was an isolated fit occurring at the time of injury. Likewise if anticonvulsant medication is being taken as a prophylactic measure, diving should be banned, but may be resumed three months after this is withdrawn if the individual never had a fit.\nOperative intervention to raise depressed bone or evacuate haematomas should disqualify for three months but otherwise may be disregarded except insofar as it may be associated with subsequent fits, anticonvulsants treatment or other factors above.\n1.

Acceleo is a pragmatic implementation of the Object Management Group (OMG) MOF Model to Text Language (MTL) standard. You do not need to be an expert to start using the plug-ins and create your first code generator. One of the improvement is the traceability for each line of code of which part of the generation template generated it, and which model element triggered its generation. This feature is intensively used in the UML to Java generator, an open source Eclipse plugin that allows you to generate Java source code from a UML model.",

        "raw_content": "Releasing young people into their potential\nBy Peter O\u2019Brien\nPeople are still chatting as the worship leader gives the signal to start. With just a few taps on the drumsticks and some rhythmic strums on the guitar, a unified purpose emerges. Words for the first song appear on a screen. The worship leader motions toward the microphone and in unison, the whole room begins declaring God\u2019s goodness and exalting Jesus\u2019 name. It is wonderful. It is heaven on earth.\nThere\u2019s nothing too unusual about this scene. The songs, and perhaps the equipment, may be different, but this is familiar in church gatherings and prayer meetings around the world for people who love Jesus. In this case, the worship leader just happens to be a teenager, but again, that\u2019s not uncommon.\nHowever, a quick scan of this worship team reveals something a bit more unusual. With their odd socks, hoodies, and fresh faces, they clearly all have school in the morning. Yet this is an important public event with people from other churches coming and friends invited. Is this an experiment? A token show and tell? Far from it.\nIf we expect the young people in our church to be mature Christians, they need to exercise their spiritual muscles. Joseph, Joshua and Josiah are examples of people who took up leadership positions at a young age. Before them, a young Miriam stepped out from the bulrushes to be part of God\u2019s plan for delivering His people.\n\u0093If we expect the young people in our church to be mature Christians, they need to exercise their spiritual muscles.\u0094\nStepping out, speaking up and serving humbly are the traits of leadership in God\u2019s kingdom. As unmarried apprentices, many of Jesus\u2019 disciples were in their late teens. When Paul states in 1 Corinthians 3:16 that as believers we are a temple, he didn\u2019t qualify it with \u2018when you are old enough\u2019. There is no Junior Holy Spirit that dwells in us until we\u2019re ready for the unrestricted, fully loaded version.\nA number of years ago, Trinity Church Network began providing opportunities for our teenagers to grow through serving in a youth-led service. We already had a few teenagers involved in the regular worship team rota but this would involve greater responsibility. Since then, the path has unfolded in ways we did not envisage. The numbers of teenagers involved has grown as we seek to respond creatively to God\u2019s goodness.\nOur hearts are open to the possibilities of exploring more of what God has in store for us. We haven\u2019t gotten it all together, nor do we know exactly what we\u2019re doing - some things we tried didn\u2019t quite work. But we remain confident that God has begun a good work in our youth and that He will perfect it.\nHere are some things that we are discovering that may help your youth group start or go deeper in expressing (and leading) worship.\nIt is easy to get caught up in the \u201cwhat and how\u201d of worship and youth ministry. Having a clear, meaningful vision really helps keep things in focus. It took us nearly two years to express ours: \u201cWe want to develop a culture of worship in our youth that is authentic, accessible, and acceptable.\u201d This has helped with engaging others and is a litmus test for choosing what to do or not to do.\nThe creative and performance elements of worship can be rewarding musically and emotionally. It is tempting to focus exclusively on that, particularly as other aspects (witness, welfare, and word) of the Christian life can be challenging. However, the greatest growth in worship expression can be found by investing time letting your light shine, caring for others, and delving deeper into the Bible. Ensure that teenagers are growing in all aspects.\n\u201cBeing on the aXcess worship team has been an amazing blessing\u2026 it has allowed me to explore and develop the gifting God has given me, grow relationships and build community within our youth group. The worship team has given me a place where I can bring ideas, learn, and put into practice what gifts I have in a safe environment with leaders who wish to see me succeed and pursue God wholeheartedly.\u201d - Holly Doran\nPASSION OVER POLISH\nNote that this doesn\u2019t say \u2018passion, not polish\u2019. There certainly has to be a level of capability, some substantive polish to get started. We should work on these skills so that we give our best, but it is our praise that the Lord inhabits, not the performance. Work out what criteria is appropriate for your situation. However, be clear that a desire to encounter God and to help others do the same is the priority.\nThe modern rocket launch provides a useful analogy for the developmental youth worship team. A launch-pad structure provides resources (e.g. fuel) and protection and keeps the rocket pointing in the right direction.\nWhen we first introduced violins, the launch pad was evident. We arranged some dedicated workshops on improvisation and playing in a band (resources); for the first worship session, we kept violins to one song rather than the full set list (protection) and reminded them that they are playing to an audience of one (direction). Now, our teenage violinists make a contribution to the mix in almost every song.\nRELATIONSHIP OVER ROUTINE\nAs a group involving teenagers that are still growing in their own identity as well as their abilities, there may be some things that you will do differently to the adult worship team. It may be extra practice sessions, or the worship may have different elements. The most effective tool we have is the Hangout Practice. We eat together, have a short team-building exercise or discussion, and then get on with rehearsing. The relationship and trust built up around sharing food and fun brings about a real sense of team, which shows when they play together. Find routines that foster relationship.\nTHE HEART IS THE PRIMARY INSTRUMENT OF WORSHIP\nMusic is the most common expression of worship, particularly in a church context. Not everyone who worships sings or plays a musical instrument. It is important to encourage the use of technical and creative gifts in our teenagers. Keep the workshops and practice sessions open to all the teenagers to attend. Having Colossians 3:17 as a criteria, be open to the collaborations and innovations that come from the group.\n\u0093We play with a higher purpose, and that\u2019s different from being in a regular band.\u0094\n\u2014 Luke Nolan\nNow more than ever, there is easy access to inspirational worship events, worship teaching, great worship songs, and tutorials on how to play them. With limited reference points, a teenager may have no hooks on which to hang these pearls of wisdom. What they are familiar with is their own church context, so involving people from the existing worship team to share their own experience is very effective.\nIn general, one of the main jobs will be providing structure, a bit of discipline on time keeping, and staying focused on the task at hand. Look for those times when it is appropriate to release more responsibility. It can take time for the true leaders to emerge. Then, as suddenly as it all comes together, it is time to repeat and go back over topics (even the basics) again.\nPeter O\u2019Brien serves in the wonderful space where youth and worship ministry overlap. The Dublin-based software developer grew up in a Christian home but did not choose Jesus until his teens. Not long after, Peter learned three guitar chords and joined others more gifted than he in worship.\nAre you building bridges or fences?\nWhere\u2019s you bin? (Where\u2019s you\u2019 ...",

Sending you positive thoughts!\nHang in there! I know firsthand how you feel re: the comparison thing when it comes to your profession. As a designer, it's easy to admire the work of others, but hard to admire the work we produce. I often wonder if it's because we've built it from scratch. We can find all of the imperfections and instances where we could have 'improved it' or have taken it further. It's a really tough spot to be in, but I guess it's just part of the game. It comes and goes for me. I hope it does the same for you. I am sure you do really amazing work. Look at your blog. ;)\nDon't think of it being irrational, think of it as a signal that you might need to de-stress. I get like this, too, especially now when I've had to give up or severely restrict some of the things I really love to do in my pursuit of another goal. Take a week or two where you make a point to not push yourself hard. Your energy levels eventually will re-tune themselves, and you'll be back on track in no time.\nThanks so much, girls. Even though I didn't reply to your comments at the time, it really meant a lot to me to receive your feedback and positivity. More than you know.",

        "raw_content": "My husband and I both have our parents here in Canberra, so we moved here to be close to them. And now that we have a four-year-old son, it would be pretty hard to leave that support network. And we\u2019re pretty settled, we have a great group of friends, and we\u2019re enjoying life, everyone\u2019s happy, so \u2026 why change it?\nI think for me, the best thing about being a woman in Canberra is having my family support here. I feel safe, I feel safe for my family, and I think that we\u2019ve just got lots of choice in terms of what we want to do. I love it. It\u2019s a good feel. I\u2019m comfortable here.\nI also think it\u2019s really easy to maintain my health and wellbeing in Canberra. I love exercising outdoors, and I\u2019m able to just walk out the front door, go up the road, and then run around the reserve and be outside. I think we\u2019ve also got access to great food\u2014we\u2019ve got lots of fresh food markets. All round it\u2019s a pretty easy place to stay healthy.\nBut I\u2019d also say that as a mum you have to have access to people who can support you as well, because it can be challenging to exercise with your little one. Although my four year old now is riding a bike, so I can run and he rides, and that\u2019s awesome. We can exercise together, which is great.\nAlso, talking from the perspective of mainly new women to Canberra\u2014Canberra can be a little bit cliquey and it can be difficult for some women to connect with new people, so that\u2019s probably the hardest thing that I\u2019ve seen for women. And, the majority of my friends have a young family, and they also have paid work that they need to do. The common theme is that finding that balance can be very challenging, because most of them do try to do both well.\nMy favourite things in life are hearing my four-year-old\u2019s belly laugh, spending time with my hubby, and making time for myself.\nMy perfect day would be a warm day, outside, with my hubby and son.\nI feel happy, blessed and strong.\nhttp://www.womenofcanberra.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/WoC_CatalogueImage_0019_Karen.jpg 2482 3513 Angela Carnovale http://www.womenofcanberra.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/logo-women-of-canberra-transparent.png Angela Carnovale2015-03-12 13:26:292015-09-29 12:16:50post0019",

        "raw_content": "Ken Van Loan, the president of the Bethel Business Association, wasn\u2019t worried. He\u2019d decided this festival could be a great boost for the depressed economy of the Catskills. \u201cWe talked to the county about promoting this thing,\u201d said Van Loan, who owned Ken\u2019s Garage in Kauneonga lake. \u201cWe told \u2019em it would be the biggest thing that ever came to the county.\u201d\nAs July became August, Vassmer\u2019s General Store in Kauneonga Lake was doing a great business in kegs of nails and cold cuts. The buyers were longhaired construction guys who were carving Yasgur\u2019s pasture into an amphitheater. \u201d They told me, \u2018Mr. Vassmer, you ain\u2019t seen nothing yet,\u2019 and by golly, they were right,\u201d said Art Vassmer, the owner.\nAbe Wagner knew that little Bethel, with a population of 3,900 souls, wasn\u2019t set to handle the coming flood of humanity. Two weeks before the festival, Wagner, 61, heard that Woodstock Ventures had already sold 180,000 tickets. Wagner, who owned a plumbing company and lived in Kauneonga Lake, was one of approximately 800 Bethel residents who signed a petition to stop the festival. \u201cThe people of Bethel were afraid of the influx of people on our small roads, afraid of the element of people who read the advertisements in the magazines that said, \u2018Come to Woodstock and do whatever you want to do because nobody will bother you,'\u201d Wagner said.\nBy August, Elliot Tiber was getting anonymous phone calls. \u201cThey\u2019d say that it\u2019ll never happen, that we will break your legs,\u201d Tiber said. \u201cThere was terrible name-calling. It was anti-Semitic and anti-hippies. It was dirty and filthy.\nA week before the festival, Yasgur\u2019s farm didn\u2019t look much like a concert site. \u201cIt was like they were building a house, except there was a helicopter pad,\u201d Vassmer said. Vassmer had heard the nervous talk among his regular customers, especially when they heard the radio ads. \u201c\u2018I don\u2019t know about this,\u2019 they\u2019d say,\u201d Vassmer recalled. \u201cThey\u2019d say, \u2018Boy, when this thing comes, we\u2019re gonna be sorry.'\u201d That same week, a group of outraged residents filed a lawsuit. It was settled within a few days; the promoters promised to add more portable toilets. \u201cThere was a lot of intrigue,\u201d Lang said. \u201cI don\u2019t remember it all.\u201d\nThose 800 petitioners weren\u2019t too happy with Bethel Supervisor Daniel J. Amatucci. \u201cHe didn\u2019t inform us about all the people until a week before the festival,\u201d Wagner remembered. \u201cHe turned around and threw it in the wastebasket without even looking at it.\u201d Wagner protester. Amatucci read it. Then he told Wagner it was too late.\nMichael Lang gunned a shiny BSA motorcycle across a field of grass. He wore a leather vest on his shirtless back, and a fringed purse hung at his hip. A lit cigarette hung out of his mouth as he popped down the kickstand. It was early August 1969, and Lang commanded an army of workers throwing together the rock concert. A filmmaker came by to ask Lang some questions, freezing Lang, his motorcycle and his attitude forever in a movie moment that captures the careless bravado of youth. \u201cWhere are you gonna go from here?\u201d the interviewer asked. \u201cAre you gonna do another?\u201d \u201cIf it works,\u201d Lang answered.\nVentures decided to try to win over the residents in Bethel. It sent out the Earthlight Theater to entertain local groups. It booked a rock band called Quill to do free performances. But Earthlight, an 18-member troupe, didn\u2019t do Shakespeare or Rodgers and Hammerstein. They did a musical comedy called \u201cSex. Y\u2019all Come.\u201d They also stripped naked. Frequently.\nOn August 7, Ventures staged a pre-festival festival on a stage that was still under construction. Quill opened the show, and Bethel residents sat on the grass, expecting theater. Instead, the Earthlight Theater stripped and screamed obscenities at the shocked crowd. \u201cThey went from being suspicious to being convinced,\u201d Rosenman said.\nWavy Gravy rounded up 85 Hog Farmers and 15 Hopis. He donned a Smokey-the-Bear suit and armed himself with a bottle of seltzer and a rubber shovel. Then he and the barefooted, long haired Hog Farmers flew into John F. Kennedy International Airport. \u201cWe\u2019re the hippie police,\u201d Gravy announced as he and his entourage stepped off the plane on Monday, Aug. 11.\nThe opposition plotted a last-minute strategy to stop the show: a human barricade across Route 17B on the day before the concert. Tiber heard about the plan on Monday. \u201cSo, I go on national radio and said that they were trying to stop the show, \u201d he said. \u201cI didn\u2019t sleep well. About two o\u2019clock in the morning, I wake up and I hear horns and guitars. This is on Tuesday morning. I look out, and there are five lanes of headlights all the way back. They\u2019d started coming already.\u201d\nKornfeld made Warner Brothers an offer it couldn\u2019t refuse. It was Wednesday, two days before showtime. Ventures had to make a movie deal\u2026 now. All Kornfeld wanted was $100,000 to pay for film. The concert would take care of the acting, the lighting, the dialogue and the plot. \u201cMichael Wadleigh was up there (at the site) waiting with (Martin) Scorsese,\u201d Kornfeld said. \u201cAll they needed was money for film. The contract was handwritten and signed by myself and Ted Ashley (of Warner Brothers). I told them, \u2018Hey, guys, there are going to be hundreds of thousands of people out there. It\u2019s a crap shoot: spend $100,000 and you might make millions. If it turns out to be a riot, then you\u2019ll have one of the best documentaries ever made.'\u201d\nWadleigh rounded up a crew of about 100 from the New York Film scene, including Scorsese. Wadleigh couldn\u2019t pay them until much later, but he could get them inside the event of the summer. The crew signed on a double-or-nothing basis. If the film made it, they\u2019d get twice regular pay. If the film bombed, they\u2019d lose. The crew got to Woodstock a few days before, driving up in Volkswagen Beetles and beat-up cars. Wadleigh\u2019s plot ran like this: Woodstock would be a modern-day Canterbury Tale, a pilgrimage back to the land. He wanted the film to be as much about the hippies who trekked to Woodstock as about the music on stage. He wanted the stories of the young people, their feelings about the Viet Nam War, about the times. The stories of the townspeople. These would make the film, not just the music.\nEight miles away, Timer Herald-Record harness racing John Szefc was working on a feature story at the Monticello Raceway. Then he caught a glimpse of the traffic out on Route 17B. It was 11am, more than 24 hours before the concert, and traffic was already backed up all the way down Route 17B to Route 17 \u2013 a distance of 10 miles. \u201cThat\u2019s when I knew this was going to be big. Really significant, \u201d he said. Szefc\u2019s story that night was about the effect of the concert on the racetrack. Some bettors fought the traffic on Route 17B and managed to get to the windows. But the handle was down $60,000 from a typical weekend night in August.\nBy the afternoon of Thursday, August 14, Woodstock was an idyllic commune of 25,000 people. The Hog Farmers had built kitchens and shelters with two-by-fours and tarps. Their kids were swinging on a set of monkey bars built of lumber and tree limbs, jumping into a pile of hay at the bottom. Wavy Gravy recruited \u201cresponsible-looking\u201d people and made them security guards. He handed out armbands and the secret password, which was \u201cI forget.\u201d Down the slope, stands were ready to sell counterculture souvenirs: hand-woven belts, drug paraphernalia and headbands. Christmas tree lights were strung in the trees. Sawdust was strewn along the paths. Over the hill, carpenters were still banging nails into the main stage. The Pranksters and the Hog Farmers had built heir own alternative stage.\nPrankster leader Babbs acted as emcee, opening the stage to anyone who wanted to jam. The sound system was a space amplifier borrowed from the Grateful Dead. \u201cOver the hill and into the woods we went,\u201d Babbs said. \u201cWe had the free school for the kids, the Free Kitchen and so, the Free Stage.",

        "raw_content": "Scarlett has done her fair share of traveling in her 2 1/2 years whether it's on the plane to Grandma's, or long car trips to visit relatives. It's essential to always have snacks to not only calm her down and keep her happy, but to keep her full in-between meals. For my baby shower, I received small multi-colored containers for kids that come in different sizes that are perfect for snacking on-the-go. They get a lot of use and are ideal for throwing in a diaper bag or tote bag.\nI don't have much experience with traveling with perishable items, but I do pack Scarlett's lunch for camp with an ice pack. If you are traveling with a cooler, how about considering cheese sticks and yogurt tubes? As long as they stay properly chilled, your little one will be happy.",

We don\u2019t shy away from occupying the messy parts of life. A Sun reader is someone at a party, if you ask them how they are, they\u2019d much prefer to stand in the corner with you and have a conversation for 45 minutes, rather than the superficial social moment. There are a lot of party conversations in the media \u2013 we\u2019re not interested in furthering small talk, or illusions that life is easy or simple.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u203a Stories and Tales \u203a Stories about Spiritual Masters \u203a Love Realised, Surrender Fulfilled, Oneness Manifested\nThe following story was taken from the book entitled \u201cLove Realised, Surrender Fulfilled, Oneness Manifested\u201d, by Sri Chinmoy.\nThis incident took place fifty years ago. There was a great spiritual Master who had a small cottage at the foot of the Himalayas, where he lived. Although it was in a remote place, he had many, many disciples.\nOne day his disciples gathered together and he gave a talk on love-divine love. His lecture was excellent, simply excellent, and most soulful. At the end of the talk he said, \u201cMy children, nobody amongst you has any love for me. What you have is, rather, reverential awe. In the spiritual life what is necessary is real divine love, and not reverential awe. You may feel that you love me, but it is not true. It is absolutely wrong and false. True love is the love of oneness. You don?t have that kind of love for me. What you have is reverential awe.\u201d\nAt this his disciples were terribly shocked. The meeting was over, and with sad faces all the disciples left the Master?s presence. Only seven disciples remained?three young men and four young women. They sat around the Master with folded hands and one of the young men said to the Master, \u201cMaster, how is it that you say that I don\u2019t love you? I do love you.?\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cYou love me? What is the proof?\u201d\n\u201cThe proof is here. I will do anything for you. Whatever you want me to do, I will do gladly and immediately.\u201d\nThe Master said. \u201cWonderful. Then tomorrow, early in the morning, at one o\u2019clock, you have to get up and meditate for two hours\n\u201cMaster! At one o\u2019clock in the morning?\u201d\n\u201cMaster, how can I get up at that hour? You know I only sleep for five or six hours at night. To get up at one o\u2019clock in the morning and meditate for two hours? Oh Master, it is really a difficult task!\u201d\n\u201cMy son, indeed you love me.? With a smile the Master said, ?Here is your love for me. You can\u2019t get up at one o\u2019clock to meditate. My son, indeed this is your love for me.\u201d\nThen another young man said to the Master, \u201cMaster, you can feel my heart. I really and truly love you. I love you. You are my only concern.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cYou really love me?\u201d\n\u201cYes. I love you.\u201d\n\u201cThen what can you do for me?\u201d\n\u201cI can do anything you ask of me, immediately.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cAll right. Starting now, for three days you will not take a morsel of food, not even a glass of water. Nothing. For three days you have to remain without food, without drink.?\n\u201cMaster, how can I do that? You know I am a greedy fellow. Daily I eat five or six times. This is such a difficult, difficult task for me. I can do anything else, Master. For me not to eat even once a day is impossible. Master, please give me something else to do.\nThe Master said, \u201cIndeed. This is your love for me. You can\u2019t do even this much for me. You can\u2019t listen to me, and this is your love.\u201d\nThen the Master asked the third young man, \u201cWhat do you want? Why are you here?\u201d\n\u201cMaster, my love for you is immense, spontaneous, most soulful. I will do anything you want. I will move heaven and earth to please you. I love you much more than I love my girl friend. Master, tell me what you want.\nThe Master said, \u201cYou love me so dearly? Look here, bring me a piece of paper.\u201d\nThe young man brought the paper and the Master began to write. The name of the young man was Bharat. The Master wrote down: \u201cMY NAME IS BHARAT. I WISH TO TELL YOU, MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, THAT I HAVE MORE COMPASSION FOR HUMANITY THAN GOD HIMSELF HAS. GOD HAS SENT ME INTO THE WORLD. I AM HELPLESS BUT I AM FIGHTING AGAINST IGNORANCE. GOD HIMSELF DID NOT DARE TO COME ONTO EARTH, BUT HE HAS SENT ME AND I FEEL THAT I AM GREATER AND MORE COMPASSIONATE THAN GOD HIMSELF!\u201d Then the Master said, \u201cThis is what I have written for you. You have to read it out tomorrow when we have our meeting. There will be hundreds of people here and you have to read out this message.?\n\u201cMaster, how can I read this? People will laugh at me. They will say, \u201cHe is greater than God?\u201d They will think that I am a fool, I am insane. Master, I don\u2019t want to be embarrassed.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cOh, this is your love for me. Indeed, this is your love for me.\u201d\nThen the Master turned to the young women. The first young woman said, \u201cMaster, never did I imagine that you could be so cruel. You know how deeply I love you. All day and night I think of you with such joy, such sweetness, such affection, and you say that I don\u2019t love you.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cYou love me?\u201d\n\u201c?Yes.\u201d\n?Then do something for me. Tomorrow, when the meeting starts, right in front of everyone you have to say that your Master is a fraud. He is a fake. He has not realised God. He has deceived you many, many times. He has done many wrong, immoral, absurd things, and he is not realised. He is deceiving us, failing us. We must never listen to him. You must say \u201cWe must all leave him, all at once. You have to say this tomorrow at the meeting.\u201d\n\u201cOh Master, how can I say this? I know you are a sincere man. You are so sincere and you are so compassionate. You are so divine and if I say this, then people will strike me there in the meeting itself. I can\u2019t do this, Master. How can I, knowing that you are so good, so kind, and so affectionate?so divine? Master, why do you want me to do this kind of unthinkable thing? It is unbelievable, incredible. Master, I can\u2019t.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cIndeed, you love me. My daughter, indeed you love me. You can do everything for me but not this. This is your love.\u201d\nThen he turned to another young woman, the second young woman in the row, and said, \u201cTell me, what do you want?\u201d\n\u201cMaster, God has given me a heart and that heart is for you. You know that I don\u2019t care for anybody in the family. I have my husband; I have my children; I have my relatives, but all the time I think only of you. You only are the object of my adoration, love, concern, joy, and pride.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cWonderful. Then what do you want? What can you do for me?\u201d\n\u201cI can do anything for you immediately.\u201d\n\u201cEarly in the morning you usually kiss your children and say hello to your husband. Tomorrow you must not kiss your children, you must not say hello to your husband, and you must not say a word to the members of your family the whole day.\u201d\n\u201cMaster, how can I do that? When the children come back from school they will cry for food. They will cry, Ma! Ma! Ma!? How am I going to remain silent? I have to respond to them. What will they think of me? And when my husband comes back home from his office, dead tired, he will ask me for hot milk and he will talk to me. He will ask me quite a few things. If I don\u2019t answer, he will say, ?What is wrong with you? He will even go to the length of striking me in front of the children. Master, please tell me to do something else This is impossible! One whole day not to speak to my children, not to say hello to my husband, how can I do that? What will they think of me; what will my husband think of me? He will think that I have gone crazy. He will take me to a mental hospital. Master, please, something else.\u201d\n\u201cYes my daughter, you really love me. Indeed you love me.\u201d\nThen the Master went to the third young woman. The Master said, \u201cMy daughter, what do you want?\u201d\n\u201cMaster, you know that only for you I left my husband, my children, the members of my family, to accept the spiritual life wholeheartedly. Just to please you have I taken to the spiritual life, and I don?t care for my children, I don\u2019t care for my husband. I have given up everything, only to follow the spiritual life, and under your guidance I am making tremendous progress. Now Master, how can you say, when I have abandoned everything for you, that I don\u2019t love you?\u201d\n\u201cYes. You can feel it and you can see my sacrificethe sacrifice that I have already made only to please you.\u201d\nThe Master said, \u201cWell then, I wish you to go to the top of the temple, and from there jump off.\nMaster, you want me to commit suicide?\n\u201cI do not know what I am asking you to do, but I want you to jump from the very top.\u201d\nMaster, I am ready to go, but I know that you will protect me. I will not die.\nThe Master said, \u201cYou are going there with the idea that I shall protect you\u201d\nYes, Master. I am ready to go and jump.\nMy daughter, no, no, no. Your love for me is conditional. You feel that if you jump I shall protect you. That is why you can jump because you will escape death. My daughter, this is your love for me. Indeed, this is your love for me.\nThen he turned to the last, the seventh one. The Master said, Now what do you want?\nMaster, I love you. I love you. I love you.\nYes. I can do anything, anything you want, immediately.\nThe Master said, You leave this place immediately and I don\u2019t want to see your face again in this life. Never shall you come to me. Never will I see your face.\nMaster, if that is your choice, if that is your wish that you will never see me again in this life, and you will not allow me to come to your place?if that makes you happy, then I am ready. Master, I am leaving. I came into the world to please you. I came into the world to love you. I came into the world to adore you. I came into the world to worship you. I came into the world to fulfil you. By throwing me aside, if you feel that you will be happy, you will be able to fulfil yourself, then Master, I am ready. To give you joy is the sole purpose of my life. Master, I am eternally, outwardly, inwardly yours. I am leaving.?\nImmediately the Master placed the palms of his hands on her head. He blessed this particular disciple with all his heart and soul, saying, \u201cAt long last I have seen someone who really and truly loves me. My daughter, you are the only one who loves me you and nobody else on earth. I do not need anybody else\u2019s love. My daughter, your love is true, your love is genuine. You have me. Your spiritual Master is eternally yours. He is for you and he will remain for you for all time, through eternity.\nYour Master will remain physically, vitally, mentally, and psychically closest, closest to your heart. You are his dearest disciple. You are his peerless pride. You stay. You are his very own.?",

But instead of children he tends to thousands of baby corals, growing in large, shallow tanks called raceways.\nMote has been doing this work for five years, raising corals from embryos into adult colonies, then planting them on Florida's reefs. Now, the emergence of a new, debilitating coral disease makes his work more important than ever.\nIn one raceway, Mandara says fragments of brain coral have grown quickly in this controlled environment.\n\"The brain coral were eight fragments,\" he says. \"And over time, they've grown out and have now fused into each other, becoming one coral that will hopefully over time become sexually mature.\"\nMote lab's science director Erinn Muller calls such progress \"our beacon of hope.\"\nAround the world, coral reefs are facing trouble. Coral bleaching, due in part to rising ocean temperatures, has stressed reefs, leaving them weakened and susceptible to disease. Now, in Florida, scientists are struggling to combat a mysterious disease that's threatening the future of the world's third largest coral reef.\nIn just four years, the so-far unidentified disease has already had a dramatic impact on Florida's reef tract, which extends some 360 miles down the state's Atlantic coast. Muller says it appears to be a bacterial disease, and for about half of the state's species of coral it's deadly.\n\"When they're affected by this, the tissue sloughs off the skeleton,\" she says. \"And we see that once a coral is infected, it usually kills the entire coral, sometimes within weeks. And it doesn't seem to stop.\"\nA 'local extinction' that's on the move\nWilliam Precht was one of the first scientists to spot the outbreak and the impact it was having on corals. In 2014, he was hired by the state to monitor the health of reefs off the port of Miami, where a dredging project was underway. He saw the disease move from one patch of coral to another.\nPrecht says it's proved especially deadly for species of brain and star coral, which form the foundation for many reefs. In some areas now, he says almost all of those corals are dead.\n\"This is essentially equivalent to a local extinction, an ecological extirpation of these species locally,\" he says. \"And when you go out and swim on the reefs of Miami-Dade County today, it would be a very rare chance encounter that you'd see some of these three or four species.\"\nScientists believe ocean currents help spread the disease. Since it was first discovered, it's moved north, affecting reefs all the way up to the St. Lucie inlet. It's now moving south, through the Florida Keys.\nA large number of researchers are working to tackle the disease on many fronts. Some are using DNA analysis to try to identify the pathogens involved. Muller of Mote Marine says others are looking for ways to stop the disease from spreading.\n\"Anything from... looking at chlorine-laced epoxy as an antiseptic, and even looking at how antibiotics interact with the disease,\" she says. \"Because if it is bacterial, then antibiotics would be a way to stop it.\"\nThis disease outbreak is the latest blow to a reef system that has been stressed and battered by decades of development, poor water quality and rising sea temperatures. After a long decline in Florida, coral reefs have been decimated, leaving too few species to successfully reproduce and rebuild the population on their own.\nThat's why Muller believes the best hope now is to raise healthy corals in the lab and transplant them onto reefs. \"We're really at a critical juncture right now, where we have corals left on the reef,\" she says. \"Before we lose more corals, now is the time to start making a change.\"\nMote Marine Lab hopes to plant 35,000 of its lab-raised corals onto reefs in the Keys this year. Muller says so far, corals raised in the lab have shown resistance to the mystery disease, giving scientists hope they may yet be able to save Florida's reefs.\nCoral reefs are in trouble around the world. Rising ocean temperatures and other problems have bleached corals, weakening the reefs. Scientists in Florida are struggling to fight a new threat, a mysterious disease that's affecting the world's third-largest coral reef. From Miami, NPR's Greg Allen reports.\nGREG ALLEN, BYLINE: At Mote Marine's Lab Center for Coral Reef Research in the Florida Keys, Joey Mandara is kind of like a babysitter. Instead of children, he tends to thousands of baby corals. They're in large, shallow tanks called raceways.\nJOEY MANDARA: So we have two of our older corals. We have mountainous star coral and knobby brain coral.\nALLEN: He's proud of his charges. For several years now, Mote has been raising corals from embryos into adult colonies. In this raceway, Mandara placed plugs holding fragments of coral, which in this controlled environment have grown quickly.\nMANDARA: The brain coral were eight fragments. And over time they've grown out. And now they've fused into each other, becoming one coral that will hopefully over time become sexually mature.\nALLEN: For five years now, Mote has been raising healthy corals like these and planting them on Florida's reefs. The science director at Mote's lab in the Keys, Erinn Muller, says the emergence of a new debilitating coral disease makes this work more important than ever.\nERINN MULLER: It is our beacon of hope, as I call it.\nALLEN: In just four years, a so-far unidentified disease has already had a dramatic impact on Florida's reef tract, which extends some 360 miles down the state's Atlantic coast. Muller says it appears to be a bacterial disease. And for about half of the state's species of coral, it's deadly.\nMULLER: When they're affected by this, the tissue sloughs off the skeleton.

        "raw_content": "WPHS 9th Grade Center Shakespeare Festival 2015\nWinter Park High School\u2019s 9th Grade Center holds an annual Shakespeare Festival. For several years, the Weavers of Orlando have participated in the Festival, doing spinning and weaving demos. This year, the Festival took place on May 28. It was my first year participating in the demos. We were required to wear a period costume!\nBev, Nancy, and I at the WPHS 9th Grade Center.\nThe English Department organizes the Festival. In past years, the entire event took place in the gymnasium. This year, they tried something new. The event took place in the English Building and the auditorium. In the English Building, different classrooms had different themes. The Weavers of Orlando, for example, was in a room with a pottery booth and a face-painting booth, for an artisan theme.\nThe school provided the banner for our table.\nThe students had their usual class schedule for the day. During their English period, they came to the Festival. They started by meeting with their English teacher, who gave them a passport. In order to receive credit for the class period, students had to get 8 stamps in their passport. The students obtained stamps by participating in the various activities.\nAn English teacher (on the left, in the knight costume) explaining the passports to a class.\nIn our room, a student could potentially get 3 stamps: one for getting their face painting, one for signing the large pot on the pottery table, and one for either listening to us explain the process of getting from raw fleece to finish fabric or for weaving on the floor loom. Other rooms had games, palm reading, and much more. During their Geography period, students went to the auditorium to see the performances. Some study skills teachers also allowed students to come to the Festival instead of their usual study skills period.\nIn order to participate in the event, students were required to wear a costume. This requirement was loosely interpreted. Some students rented or purchased costumes. Some made the costumes as part of a class prior to the event. Others used their ingenuity and their existing wardrobe to create a character. I overheard more than one student ask another about their character. I extrapolated from this that the students had studied Renaissance social roles and were to pick a particular role for their costume.\nI was rather amused by the backpacks with the period costumes!\nSince I was demonstrating, I didn\u2019t get a chance to walk around and see the other rooms. When I first arrived (at 6:30 am!), someone was setting up games outside, including archery. I was amused to see the fake sheep used as rests for the bows and \u201carrows.\u201d\nOne room was the King\u2019s Court. Students could fence with Nerf swords, for the King\u2019s amusement and approval.\nAt lunch, I ran into the royal family. The King and Queen are a real-life husband and wife. The girl in the Beefeater costume is their daughter. She was a 9th grader in this school last year, and the parents volunteered as King and Queen. The family reprised their roles for this year\u2019s festival.\nI loved this Blackbird Pie sculpture on the lunch table.\nI\u2019m not sure how many students we had come through our booth. We weren\u2019t doing the Kumihimo disks or any other takeaway at this demo, and that\u2019s usually how we know the number of students. We had a steady stream of students throughout the day, without ever being inundated. We were at the event from 6:30 am to 2:30ish pm, including the set up and take down time. I spun about an ounce of Cormo during the event!\nI expected to be exhausted after this event. I was up far earlier than usual and it\u2019s a lot of talking. I was tired, but not as tired as I expected, and I had a lot of fun. Hopefully, I\u2019ll be able to do it again next year!\nAuthor KarenPosted on June 8, 2015 Categories Fiber Events, Spinning, WeavingTags costume, period dress, Renaissance, Shakespeare, Shakespeare Festival, Winter Park High School, WPHS1 Comment on WPHS 9th Grade Center Shakespeare Festival 2015",

        "raw_content": "Day Five: Writing TIme\nAnother UNCG official visited the camp today named Janet Allard, professor of Theatre and Playwriting. Plays are another version of telling events, conflicts and descriptions through acting, using vivid characters and colorful scenery on a grand stage. To demonstrate the power of drama, she asked a volunteer from the audience to pretend he dropped a dollar and the other volunteer would find it and give it back. Though it was a good performance, it was missing the ideal components of a play such as the conflict, resolution and something extra to make it a show to remember. After discussing crazy ideas, like car chases and man eating tigers, to improve the scene, a few more students volunteered to be lawyers and a judge, while the rest of the audience were the jury and witnesses. In a way, it became a mini version of Judge Judy, with people objecting, saying, \u201cOrder in the court,\" lawyers defending their clients and the judge pretending to be using a gavel. The students were truly using their imaginations to bring the scene to life.\nSo far, the first week of camp was a huge success. According to some of the students I interviewed, \u201cthe camp is a fun place because we get to meet authors, share our stories and use the computers.\u201d Another one said \u201cI love the teachers and mentors here. They explain everything to me, give me tips and websites like VoiceThread, ToonDo and Popplet to help me with my writing. They\u2019re the best!\u201d \u201cAwesome! Great! Amazing!\u201d said a trio of friends. \u201cI get to do things I could never do at home or at school.\u201d \u201cThey should do the camp every year.\u201d \u201cI feel like I am reaching my expectations and developing my own sense of style.\u201d Mostly everyone has finished typing their piece while others are half way done. Just a little more editing and maybe a few illustrations and funny voices to add, but they are excited for next week. From the words of a first time student, \u201cI can\u2019t wait to come back next year!\u201d",

Fixers are young people using their past to fix the future. They are motivated by personal experience to make positive change for themselves and those around them.\nIn 2018, Fixers are looking for young people age 16-25 to run a road safety project in the UK.\nFixers have different backgrounds, interests and life experiences, and come from every corner of the UK. But they do have several important things in common. They are motivated by a desire to act on an issue that is important to them or a strong desire to help other people.\nThey also have a voice that they want to be heard, whether that\u2019s on eating disorders, drugs, offending, cyberbullying or any other issue that is concerning them. Becoming a Fixer allows that to happen. Fixers are heard, understood and respected by others.\nFixers choose the issue they want to fix and, using the skills of a team of creative experts, they work out how to make sure their message is heard by the right people, whether that\u2019s through a unique film, a leaflet or poster campaign, a website, an event or workshop. Then they use digital, print and broadcast media to make their voice heard as far and wide as possible Fixers win awards, meet their MPs and some have even gone on to set up their own charities.\nA few years ago, we were involved with Fixers' Road Savvy Campaign. To have their voices heard, 20 Fixers and over 50 guests attended the 'Fixers Road Savvy Forum' at the Abbey Centre in Westminster.\nThe event brought together young people, politicians and road safety experts to discuss the biggest road safety issues facing the country today. Fixers from across the nation participated in a morning workshop session, brainstorming ways to improve road safety. The findings will be presented to the government in the form of a \u2018Fixers Green Paper', following the Department of Transport\u2019s decision to consult on road safety proposals.\nIn the afternoon, a panel of five Fixers \u2013 Jordan Bone, Manpreet Darroch (YOURS), Jen Byrne, Cathal O\u2019Kane and Abi Phillips \u2013 used these ideas to answer questions from an audience of politicians and road safety advocates. The discussion was hosted by ITV presenter Nina Hossain.\nCalling passionate UK based youth who care about road safety\nFixers is looking for young people, aged between 16 and 25 and living in the UK, interested in creating a project about road safety.

        "raw_content": "Changes to Canadian Citizenship Act Receive Royal Assent\nThe much anticipated changes to Canada's Citizenship Act were finalized when Bill C-6, an Act to amend the Citizenship Act and make consequential amendments to another Act, received Royal Assent on June 19, 2017.\nThis ends more than a year of anticipation since Bill C-6 was first introduced by the Liberal government in February 2016. Canadian Citizenship changed greatly with the \u201cStrengthening Canadian Citizenship Act\u201d of 2014 which increased the time applicants had to be in Canada before becoming eligible, introduced the \u201cintent to reside\u201d requirement, required older and younger applicants to submit proof of language and undertake citizenship tests, and allowed for the revocation of citizenship of dual citizens for those convicted of terrorism offences and enabled the Minister to be the decision-maker in revocation of citizenship gained based on alleged fraud.\nWhile some of the changes passed on June 19 will come into effect immediately, the remainder are staggered over the next few months. Some of the most important changes include:\n1) Changes coming into effect immediately:\na) Eliminate the ability to revoke citizenship of dual citizens on national security grounds;\nb) Eliminate the \u201cintent to reside\u201d requirement so that applicants do not need to state that they intend to live in Canada; and\nc) Permit minors to apply for citizenship without a Canadian parent.\n2) Changes coming into effect in Fall 2017:\na) Applicants must be physically in Canada for 3 out of 5 years before applying for citizenship;\nb) Applicants no longer required to be physically present in Canada for 183 days in each year;\nc) Applicants who were temporary residents or protected persons before becoming a permanent resident can get credit for up to 365 days towards meeting the physical presence requirement; and\nd) Only applicants between 18 and 54 will be required to meet language requirements and undertake citizenship tests.\n3) Changes expected to come into effect in early 2018:\na) The Federal Court shall be the decision maker in all citizenship revocation cases.\nThese changes abolish \u201ctwo-tiered\u201d citizenship, as described by the Liberal government, and the government can no longer revoke citizenship on national security grounds from citizens who hold dual citizenship. This brings us back to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's famous statement that \u201cA Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian\u201d. Further, citizens who are subject to having their citizenship revoked on the grounds that they obtained it fraudulently shall have a right to appeal any such decision to the Federal Court rather than see the government pursue the revocation process against them and act as the decision-maker as well.\nMany newcomers to Canada choose to immigrate here because they would like to become full members of our society. As citizens they obtain all the rights and take on all the responsibilities that come with citizenship. Canadian citizens have the right to vote and stand for office, they are no longer required to meet residency requirements to retain their citizenship, and they can obtain a Canadian passport. Thousands of applicants have been patiently awaiting the announcement of these changes and they can now plan their applications based on these new provisions.\n\u200bWhile these changes are expected to make the citizenship process faster overall, when the new physical presence provisions come into effect we can expect to see a big jump in the number of citizenship applications and likely longer wait times. A word of advice to applicants who currently meet the 4 out of 6 years physical presence requirements: apply now!",

My book, The Hidden Cost of Economic Development: The Biological Standard of Living in Antebellum Pennsylvania, was published by Ashgate in 2005. My current research, some in collaboration with advanced undergraduate students, addresses anthropometric history as well as the influenza pandemic of 1918.\nThe Stature of Late Nineteenth Century Pennsylvania National Guardsmen--An analysis of physical stature trends among a 7,500 case sample of Pennsylvania National Guard enlistees from the 1860s - 1920s. This research will provide height trend data for a time period (birth years 1840s through 1900) for which little data has been analyzed previously. This work is a temporal expansion of my dissertation research which focused on Pennsylvanians born between the 1810s and the 1840s. (With Dr. Carolyn K. Cuff)\nThe Relationship Between the Body Mass Index and Lifespan of Nineteenth Century West Point Cadets--Analysis of the relationship between life span and body mass index for nineteenth century U.S. West Point cadets. Research will provide another sample detailing life expectancy among a middle to upper middle class population segment in the mid- to late 19th century United States. It also will help to evaluate the efficacy of Waaler curves (which plot relative mortality by body mass index) in predicting relative mortality rates among historical populations.\nStature Change and Variation in Late Nineteenth-Century Scottish Soldiers and Civilians--This work examines an interesting data set from early 20th-century Scotland in an effort to follow-up on Height, Health and History within one major region of the British Isles. Aside from one study of prisoners that concentrates on the first half of the 19th century, there are no other modern studies published on Scottish heights. Given the Scottish height advantage found by Floud, Wachter, and Gregory and the paucity of studies on Scotland generally, this analysis examines the Scottish case in more detail for the late 19th century. It also adds more British and Scottish data to the growing body of anthropometric studies pertaining to economies and populations worldwide. While our initial analysis and interpretation of this data set has been accepted for publication by Economics and Human Biology [ http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ehb.2012.03.005 ], an anomaly within the growth profiles of the civilians and soldiers hints at an in utero or early life ecounter with the influenza pandemic of 1889-1893 among this population which warrants additional investigation.

        "raw_content": "The Reasons That Should Make Businesses Take Into Account The Customer Experience When Developing Websites\nTalking of the changes that have been affected by the dynamics of technology over the years in the field of business is the institution of the virtual reality. Virtual reality revolves computer applications which can be interacted with by human beings. It has been used by different firms when creating their websites which are intended to delivering services to their clients in a better manner. There is also the concept of the user experience and customer experience that go hand in hand when the business is considering developing their website. Consumer experience refers to the way the client interacts with the firm during the period which they are customers whereas user experience is the ability of an individual to operate a firm\u2019s computer application in terms of the ease of use. The website that the enterprise develops should be one that serves the customers in the best way since the client is the most vital resource in the business. Debated in this item are the reasons that should lead the firm into considering the client experience when designing websites for the company.\nThe fact that the website belongs to the client and not to you must be put into account. The ability of the customers to use the website should be given top priority by the web developers you hire. A good customer experience should be the thing that the designers that you employ ought to ensure they achieve.\nYou should also ensure that you make it crystal clear what is required of the navigators of this site. Depending on the kind of business, you may require the visitor to purchase or register with the website. Stating this fact directly is needed as it will improve the user experiences.\nIt is needed that the web developer put themselves into the shoes of the customers to know how to develop a site that is not complicated to use. It is right that the site they develop be one such that if they were the customers then they would enjoy interacting with. It is through this way that you can be sure that your customers are enjoying the services that are offered on the site. The website should be one that is not requiring any special skills to use. Complication of the site will just play a role in making it close to impossible for your clients to use the site.\nYour firm will attract more clients depending on the image that the website that you create impact on them. The visuals that you put on the site should be eye-catching. Amusing pictures and exciting quotes are some of the things that you can fix on the website to entice the clients. In this way, you will increase the customer\u2019s experience with your firm.",

        "raw_content": "Scientific name: Ursus Arctos Horriblis\nThe grand Grizzly Bear is one of the greatest symbols of the vast wilderness. Once common throughout much of western North America, the grizzly species currently reside in five separate populations in western Canada, Alaska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and Washington, and there are around 30,000 bears in Alaska. Over the past two hundred years, the number of grizzly bears in North America has declined from an estimated 100,000 individuals in the lower 48 states to around 1,600 - based on current Defenders of Wildlife statistics. They live in a variety of habitats from meadows to dense forests to the arctic tundra regions. In 1975 The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed the grizzly bear as a threatened species in the lower 48 states under the Endangered Species Act and six recovery ecosystems have been established since that time. In Alaska, where there is a much greater population, they are classified as a game animal with established hunting regulations.\nImage courtesy of Greg Harvey\nAll species of bears have come under siege from a multitude of causes including the exotic animal black market, habitat loss, hunting, being killed for their meat and contact with people. Much of the grizzly\u2019s habitat ranges have been lost or degraded as a result of development, the building of roads, and energy/mineral exploration. Bears come into contact with humans when they are attracted to food and garbage. This can often be lethal for the bear. By far, the greatest threat today, however, is their slaughter for the underground black market in bear products for use of paws and gall bladders in Asia and South Korea. According to the Endangered Species Handbook, a grizzly bear gall bladder can sell for up to $10,000 on the black market and the larger the gall bladder, the higher the price. Sold at extremely high prices, a record $45,000 was once paid for a single grizzly bear gall bladder (Barron 1991).\nSold at extremely high prices, a record $45,000 was once paid for a single grizzly bear gall bladder (Barron 1991). The gall bladders are ground into a powder and bile is extracted for certain medicinal purposes including inflammation, blood purification and digestive problems. Wildlife trafficking is now among the most lucrative trades in the world - worth around $30-50 billion annually - behind only drugs and human sex trafficking. Killing wild animals is big business. While much wildlife trade is legal, a huge black market exists - especially in rare and endangered species. Crystallized bear bile has been reported to have sold in South Korea for over $1,000 per gram, which is about twenty times the price of heroin. The earnings from wildlife trafficking is usually well over a one thousand percent return on investment. Needless to say, it has become a vicious circle of unnecessary killings and is leading to the demise of many species. Of the world\u2019s eight bear species, only giant pandas are not hunted specifically for their gall bladders.\nThe consumption of bear paws, which are cooked as a gourmet delicacy that to some is also health promoting, is widespread in Asia. Served at Japanese business banquets, they can cost $1,000 per person; a Seoul restaurant advertised bear paw soup in 1994 at $1,000 per bowl. In 1987, one Chinese city, Harbin, consumed 4,000 pounds of Brown and Asiatic Black Bear paws, and nine live bears were smuggled into Guangzhou City to lease to restaurants in order to lure customers. Live bears, imported with the pretext of going to zoos, are killed in front of Korean restaurant customers. A Korean newspaper reported that live bears are lowered onto beds of hot coals, where they are held until their feet are cooked. In China, servings of bear paws sell for between $346 and $576 each and they are only ordered if the paws are cut off the bear while it is alive (Endangered Species Handbook).\nOrganized crime groups find the wildlife black market increasing intriguing and attractive and others are in it too, from petty criminals to international terrorists. \u201cFor the purpose of traditional Chinese medicine, the bear is a walking drugstore,\u201d reported the TRAFFIC network, a wildlife trade-monitoring group. \u201cMany of the parts of the bear, from fat to brain to spinal cord, have been used for millennia. The most coveted medicinal part of the bear is the bile within the gall bladder, which gram for gram exceeds the cost of most narcotics.\u201d As a result, existing laws are typically not enforced, even though possession of protected bear parts may be restricted or prohibited. When the sale of these parts is made illegal it many times creates an even bigger problem because the prices rise, creating potential profits so great that dealers, poachers and medicine shop owners will risk fines and imprisonment to buy or sell bear parts.\nImage courtesy of Kathleen Reeder\nAt least 18 Asian countries have been linked to trade in bear parts, primarily for traditional medicines. In China, bears are kept on farms where their bile is extracted from their gallbladders. These farms now produce some 6,000 kilograms of bear bile each year - more than China's entire annual consumption of bile. But many conservationists are concerned that the over-supply of bear bile from these farms is only creating more consumers of the substance, and not protecting the species. In addition, many of the bears on these farms are species that have been captured from the wild. Though China prohibits the export of bear bile produced on these farms, illegal trade from there continues to occur on a daily basis and there are no prohibitions on imports of the bear products.\nAn estimated 8,000 to 9,000 brown bear gall bladders are exported from Russia annually. The brown bear is the national symbol of Russia, yet financial gain from selling their body parts and corruption of government officials pose serious threats for them. Russian poachers receive about $200 per gallbladder and can sell them in Korea for up to $5,000 each. In China and Vietnam, where there the wild bear population is low and declining, thousands of bears are kept confined in cages on bear bile farms, where the bile is harvested through catheters that are inserted through their skin directly into their gall bladders. One kilo of bear bile there has a street value of about $40,000. According to the Animal Welfare Institute, The traditional medicine trade in bear products is also practiced in South America, where the endangered Spectacled Bear is struggling for survival in its Andean habitat. Bear fat is used for bone bruises and claws are used for supposed strength and fertility.\nPhoto courtesy of Mike McIntosh\nBear bile and gall bladders have been used for thousands of years by many Asian countries in the treatment of numerous of ailments including cardiac problems, eye puffiness, asthma, cancer, burns and impotence. It is also popular in the black market as a sexual stimulate, which is very sought after in China. In Western medicine, synthetically-made bile acid is used to dissolve gall stones and is the only FDA-approved treatment for the liver disease cirrhosis. Intact bear gall bladders can fetch a few hundred dollars domestically, and up to 30 times that much on the black market in other countries, making them extremely valuable in terms of cost per ounce. Some AIDS patients in the United States take extracts of bear gall bladder as a supposed cure for the disease, according to CBS News. It is also said to have an anti-HCV virus function and is used for treating Hepatitis C.\nAll bears and their parts are regulated in international trade by their listing on Appendix I or II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), a treaty that includes more than 160 signatory nations. The giant panda, Asiatic black bear, sun bear, sloth bear, spectacled bear, and the Chinese, Mongolian, Bhutanese, and Mexican populations of brown bear are all listed on Appendix I, which prohibits all international commercial trade. All other bear species and populations are listed on Appendix II of CITES, which regulates commercial trade through a permit system. Domestic laws in many bear range states prohibit or regulate bear hunting and the sale of gall bladders; but, not all bear range states protect bears equally.\nThe best way to recover grizzly bear populations is to prevent the conflicts that cause them to die. Success at expanding the range of predators like grizzly bears will be directly proportional to success at reducing conflict between predators and humans. The Association of Chinese Medicine and Philosophy in Hong Kong claims there are at least 54 alternatives to bear bile, including common rhubarb and a type of gardenia. A chemical used in Western medicine to dissolve gallbladder stones, Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), has been synthesized from cattle bile acid for the past 50 years (Knights 1996). Twelve tons of this chemical are produced by a single pharmaceutical company in Korea every year. This product has also been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. So, there are several alternatives to slaughtering these majestic creatures and contributing to their demise.\n\"The greatest thrill is not\nto kill, but to let live\"\n(from the \"Grizzly King\")\nImage courtesy of Mark Newman",

        "title": "A Ride In A B-17 | 573Magazine",
        "raw_content": "A Ride In A B-17\nOne of my favorite things about being an editor of 573 Magazine is all the experiences that come my way. Organizations, chambers, city administrators\u2026 seeking a presence in the magazine offering ideas and invitations to cover events, places and people in their area. When I received an invitation to ride in a real WWll B-17 bomber from the Commemorative Air Force, Arizona, I knew it was going to be a great opportunity. IT WAS.There are only ten B-17Gs left that are still flying. Man to get to ride in it was a dream of a lifetime and better yet, I got to ride in the nose of the aircraft in the bombardier seat hanging out over literally nothing but down. Once the 4 engine fired up, accompanied by the defying sound and vibrations, it was easy to let my thoughts wander. All I kept thinking is those young guys certainly had some guts. The idea of getting into this thin skinned thing, filled with bombs, while a pile of lunatics fired at you is mind blowing to say the least.The first thing you notice when you climb into a B-17 is how small and primitive everything is. The most frightening thing is the realization that even though it was known as the Flying Fortress, it has very little protection outside of all the manned machine guns on board. The haul was actually only 1/32nd inch thick aluminum. You can easily punch a hole in the aircraft with a screwdriver, let alone sharp flak or the standard Nazi 30mm cannon round -both of which cut through the B-17 like butter. There were 13,000 made and more than 8000 were lost in combat. Not great odds for the 10 person crews required to make 25 missions in a tour of duty. The average airman only had a 1-in-4 chance of surviving the war. The average life expectancy of a B-17 crew member was 12 missions.There were hundreds of ways to die on a B-17. When fully loaded with bombs, you had a good chance of crashing on takeoff. In the unheated or pressurized haul of the aircraft traveling at 29,000 feet, you needed oxygen and a heated suit just to stay conscious. Open to the outside, the temperatures dip down to 60 below zero on missions that could last more than 8 hours deep into Nazi territory. When you sit in the nose it\u2019s hard not to imagine what these young guys went through. Heavy heated suits, origin masks, heavy gloves, thermal boots,\u2026 and then to have to peek through tiny windows shooting a machine-gun firing at Nazi fighter planes zipping past at 400 miles an hour.There are machine guns poking out everywhere on the B-17, but the tail gunner was perhaps the most important gunner of them all. He protected the rear of the aircraft with twin .50 cal. machine guns. B-17 tail gunners shot many a Nazi out of the sky. Enemy pilots gained a healthy respect for the tail guns of a B-17 rarely launching attacks from the rear.Tail gunners had a rough existence -just getting to the tail is a trick. Their compartment in the rear of the plane was one of the tightest, next possibly only to the ball turret. The gunner sat on a modified bicycle-type seat in a kneeling position for the majority of the mission. The tail was drafty and the gunner had to constantly battle frostbite and clearing the windows of frost. Escape when bailout was called was also difficult. The tail gunner was the only fixed rear-facing crew member. He was responsible for passing along anything he saw behind the aircraft. He would relay fighter information and track bombing results as the formations left the target. He also aided the navigator and radio operator by counting chutes from B-17s that were going down and the condition of other wounded B-17s. Before the fight I was introduced to a real WWII B-17 tail gunner. At 91 you could still see the pride he had for the Flying Fortress. We chatted a bit and walked to the rear of the aircraft. It was at that point you could see that he was overwhelmed by his emotions \u2013 obviously thinking of the brothers he lost in England when his B-17 crashed, taking the lives of all but himself. Meet Sgt. Clifford Heinrich.It was December 1944. The Mission was in support of ground troops engaged in the Battle of the Bulge. On that day a crew of nine men boarded the B-17, known as 812. After they completed the mission they returned to a foggy evening and were forced to divert to Great Rollright, a small town in the county of Oxfordshire in South East England. The next day, in an attempt to return to their home base, the aircraft began to lose altitude and began to start clipping the tree tops. Sgt. Clifford Heinrich of Cape Girardeau was the tail gunner and managed to make it to the center of the plane just as it crashed. All on board were killed except Clifford.His injuries were so severe that he was not expected to survive. But at 18 years of age, Clifford was not ready for his life to end. He fought. He spent time in two hospitals in England and then two in the United States. The war was well over before Clifford could even walk again. After years of recovery, Clifford became a salesman and later moved into management for a large automotive parts distributor. He currently lives in Cape Girardeau.When Sentimental Journey entered service with the Commemorative Air Force, Arizona in 1978 members immediately undertook the chores of cleaning, polishing and repainting in WW II markings and putting the plane into excellent mechanical condition. From the gun turrets, operational bomb bay doors, navigator and radio operator stations, Norden bomb sight and machine guns, Sentimental Journey has been completely restored to original condition and now offers flights to anyone interested in the experience.My name is Larry Perkins. I am the pilot of Sentimental Journey. I retired last year and now devote much of my time to flying the B-17 for the Commemorative Air Force. I have been very fortunate to fly many pilot hours in my favorite WWII fighters, bomber and transport: the P-51 Mustang, F4U Corsair, B-17 and C-47.It is a privilege to bring these warbirds on tour to give local people the opportunity to tour the aircraft and ride in them so they can personally experience the history. Giving warbird rides is my favorite activity.To learn more about the CAF and tour dates in the 573 visit: www.azcaf.org\ncommodo sit ut massa eget et, Curabitur vel, suscipit quis mi, leo.",

        "raw_content": "PDP: Lamido\u2019s struggles, criminal prosecution\n\u201cLamido should take solace in the fact that he is not alone in this persecution and prosecution games currently going on. The list is long\u2026\u201d\nMansur Ahmed\nIt is about 132 days to next year\u2019s presidential election. But it is less than 24 hours to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential primary, holding in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital. Owing largely to the failings or otherwise of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC)-led administration, which happened by accident about four years ago, Nigerians are understandably looking the direction of the opposition PDP for rescue and succour.\nREAD ALSO: PDP presidential primary: Don\u2019t be desperate, Wike advises aspirants\nSadly, if the party fails at the convention, God forbid, Nigerians and the party would have to endure another pain and the bastardisation of the country\u2019s socio-economic and political lifestyle for again another tortuous four years.\nThere are about 12 presidential aspirants. But only one man will pick the ticket. In deciding who to pick, PDP delegates must take into cognisance our heritage and our history. Where we are coming from and where we are headed? To plan for today and look forward to tomorrow, we must take stock of what transpired yesterday. Our recollections of yesterday will no doubt help us to navigate seamlessly through our today and tomorrow.\nWhile it is true that it is not all those who participate in struggles or revolutions- tions ultimately benefit from it, what is wrong if a survivor of a struggle turns out to be a beneficiary, especially when such a beneficiary did not set out from day one to benefit for the struggle? It is in this context that the past struggles of Alhaji Sule Lamido and his quest for the PDP\u2019s presidential ticket will be situated.\nThe fact that Lamido declared his desire to govern a country on a platform that was at the time enmeshed in crisis of confidence, when others members of the party were deserting it, shows\nhis implicit faith in the PDP. When together with Sen. lorchia Ayu, Prof. Jerry Gana, late Chief Alex. Ekwueme, late Mallam Adamu Ciroma, late Chief Solomon Lar, late Chief Bola Ige, late Sen. Ella, and late Alhaji Abubakar Rimi, they confronted late Gen.Sani Abacha of blessed memory on the need to vacate the stage and allow democracy to flourish, Lamido, may perhaps never know a day like this will come. Himself and Rimi were picked and locked up in DSS cells, in Ilorin and Maiduguri respectively. They were only released after the sudden demise of the late Head of State.\nWhen then President Olusegun Obasanjo was sworn in, in 1999, he met a country that was a pariah nation and within two years in office, with Lamido as his foreign minister, the status was reversed.\nAs governor, his works stand out! It is not possible for one to travel to Jigawa State today, without Lamido\u2019s exploits in the place catching one\u2019s attention. That was why he was referred as a good \u201cRepairer,\u201d and that his type was needed to fix and restore Nigeria. It was to his administration\u2019s credit that President Muhammadu Buhari was saved the stress of having to travel by road or hopping on a chopper to Dutse from Kano, during the president\u2019s state visit recently. President Buhari landed on an airport built from the scratch by the Lamido\u2019s administration. The runways and equipment are of international standards and are far better than most airports in the country. He also built a full-fledged state university and an academy for the gifted, whose students have been making waves in WAEC and JAMB examinations. Talk of politics of principle, apart from him and a few others during their time in the 80\u2019s, no politician has ever resigned his elective position in government after defecting to a party other than the one on whose platform one was first elected. Lamido, late Rimi and their group did it after defecting from PRP to the NPP.\nREAD ALSO: Atiku, Lamido clash over PDP ticket\nIronically, it is this same principle that is responsible for his criminal prosecution today. He was seen as a good material for 2015, but Lamido thinks otherwise. According to him, denying the then President, Goodluck Jonathan, a second term ticket was tantamount to passing a vote of no confidence on the president, insisting that no serious party does that. But those working for the government then were uncomfortable with him. That is why, each time he is asked about his case, he tells you it was a fallout of the \u2018civil war\u2019 within the PDP in the build up to the 2015 election. And that is the genesis of the EFCC case. Otherwise, how can a governor\u2019s son launder just $30,000 for the father? How can a governor\u2019s son, travelling with his wife and daughter for the daughter\u2019s medical treatment, be arrested for money laundering? I leave you to interrogate that.\nSeveral investigations on contracts and finances of Jigawa were carried out with the sole aim of getting Lamido prosecuted, but they could not find any fault.\nDisappointed, they went into forensic transactions of companies that were working for Jigawa state and found two or three that did some transactions with two or three companies whose Directors are Lamido\u2019s sons. But they would not file criminal charges against him because he stood his ground of not contesting against President Goodluck in the PDP or jumping ship to contest under a different political party. Unfortunately for Lamido, his party lost not only his state but the presidential election despite all his campaigns, to the displeasure of the APC.\nThe APC government not caring that during the campaigns, Sule Lamido\u2019s factory in Kano was burnt down, took on him as its number one enemy using the purported investigation reports\nit inherited. But none of the charges alleged that Lamido and his sons took any money from Jigawa State coffers, none of the charges alleged Lamido gave his children contracts as government\u2019s publicity against him showed, rather the essential elements of the charges alleged\nthat Lamido as Governor, influenced some two or three private companies to award contracts to two or three companies whose Directors are himself and his sons. But they are telling Nigerians that Lamido and sons milked Jigawa dry, just to make them look like common criminals.\nToday, the case had gone before not less than five Judges with elaborate publicity but less evidence. If Sule Lamido and his sons indeed milked Jigawa dry, as being insinuated, will there have been money to build the gigantic infrastructure put in place in Jigawa by the Sule Lamido administration?\nThe point I am driving home, especially to the PDP delegates in particular, and Nigerians in general, is that, do not be deceived, his trial, though sad, does not in any way inhibit him from flying the party\u2019s ticket if he is found suitable, capable and courageous enough to confront the APC machineries. The APC is obviously praying for a push over as candidate. The constitutional provisions regarding a citizen\u2019s eligibility to contest are all spelt out and Lamido has not breached any of them by his trial.\nWe were all in this country when Senator Iyiola Omisore won his election from the prison to the senate. As I write, Senator Joshua Dariye, who though has been convicted, has filled his nomination form to run for the senate on the platform of the APC. He is able to do that because he is on appeal.\nTalking about persecution, sorry prosecution? Lamido should take solace in the fact that he is not alone in this persecution and prosecution games currently going on. The list is long: Sen. Bukola Saraki, Dalhatu Bafarawa and Sen. David Mark, who shortly before he declared to run for the office of President, was a guest of the EFCC. Atiku Abubakar\u2019s several proactive court appearances made nonsense of all efforts to persecute him. Thank God, Lamido did not collect the campaign fund, for which some are standing trial till date. Regardless, no one on earth can change destiny.\nREAD ALSO: Monitoring campaign funds\nAhmed writes from Abuja\nThe post PDP: Lamido\u2019s struggles, criminal prosecution appeared first on The Sun Nigeria.\n\u2190 Uboh, Onowakpo, Niboro win Delta APC legislative tickets\nKalu Congratulates newly elected NUJ President, Isiguzo \u2192",

I was so jealous of women I didn\u2019t even know because I thought they were superior to me. I will admit that my self-esteem is still recovering from my obsession with Instagram and I know there are many girls who have experienced the same thing.\nI thought about quitting my blog because there\u2019s no way I\u2019ll be able to grow my following as much as the next person. In reality, I have no clue how long that person has been working and it doesn\u2019t matter!\nThe issue with social media is that we only see the best parts of someone\u2019s life. Using the information a person chooses to share with you to compare with your life is unfair to you.\nIt is important to remember, what is for you WILL NOT PASS YOU.\nWe are all on different paths and at different stages in our lives. Getting caught up on what the next person is doing will not only slow you down but it can hinder your growth. I encourage you to take those moments of frustration and turn it into motivation. A fellow blogger was offered an ambassadorship? That\u2019s awesome for them! I am going to continue to build my brand and hopefully one day I can do the same.\nAnd while I used this post to focus on the two things that impact me the most (blogging and my self-esteem) this can be applied in so many places. In careers, relationships and life as a whole. Focusing on what you don\u2019t have makes it hard to appreciate all the things you have worked so hard for.\nIt does not matter what the next person has, as long as you believe in yourself your journey will be worth it.\nOne thought on \u201cComparison is the thief of joy.\u201d\nWow that quote just may need to be put on my wall. 100% agree with you there x",

        "raw_content": "Scouting\t April 2, 2016\nThere was a chance for the Milwaukee Admirals to clinch a playoff spot all while relaxing last night. The Admirals needed the Texas Stars to defeat the Charlotte Checkers on the road in regulation. Unfortunately, that didn\u2019t happen as the Checkers won by a final score of 6-3. That leaves the business end of things to the Admirals tonight as well as the variety of games that are going to take place. Easiest thing to do though? For the Admirals to just take care of who is in front of them and not worry about what the Grand Rapids Griffins, Rockford IceHogs, or Lake Erie Monsters are up to.\nWith that thought in mind let\u2019s look at some in-house news. I attended practice yesterday and got a good look at possible lines for today\u2019s game:\nReinhart-Gaudreau-\u00c5berg\nA.J.-Kamenev-Payerl\nWhite-Girard-G\u00f6rtz\n(Fiala) Devane-Bass-Pendenza\nJust so you folks don\u2019t get confuse because there are now two players with the last name White, Matt White and A.J. White, I have made things easier for all of us to come to grips with. I\u2019ll further that in answering the other question you probably asked when looking at the lines, \u201cwhy is Kevin Fiala bracketed out of his normal line with Vladislav Kamenev and Adam Payerl? Well, that is because Fiala was skating on his own yesterday with the newbie from UMass-Lowell taking his place.\nSo, there is a slight chance that what you see up top are the lines for tonight\u2019s game with Fiala missing a second straight game after violating team orders. Do I know what he did? No, and it isn\u2019t something that the team publicizes as it happens. In due time the reality of the situation may come to light but that\u2019s not the case for what happened to Fiala right now. This was his first instance of a team violation this season. Stevie Moses, Pontus \u00c5berg, and Max G\u00f6rtz have all been slapped on the hands with a violation of team rules and those came down to being late to or missing a practice or team meeting.\nWhat of the newest White in town then? Well, lucky for us, I stopped by to get to know a bit more about the newest member of the Admirals yesterday as well as had a conversation with the CCM/AHL Goaltender of the Month Juuse Saros.\n~The Other Guys~\nThe San Antonio Rampage enter tonight\u2019s game with a record of 29-33-8-0 (66 points). Their 0.471 points percentage has them in last place of the Pacific Division and thirteenth in the Western Conference ahead of only the Manitoba Moose (0.393) and Iowa Wild (0.377).\nThe Rampage might be a lowly team but right now they are on a five-game winning streak having collected wins at home over the Grand Rapids, Bakersfield, Texas, and last night on the road in Rockford. They have outscored teams during this five-game streak 15-5 with two shutouts from Spencer Martin who has since seen himself be rewarded with a swift demotion to the Fort Wayne Komets (ECHL).\nNow, the winning streak is no joke. They\u2019re on a roll. But this also happens to be a Rampage team that lost eight-games straight prior to this current winning streak. All of those losses came in regulation and in that time they had been outscored 28-16. Of note, that span included five straight losses on home ice. The Rampage fair much better on the road (0.542) than they do at home (0.397). But, in saying that, their road goal differential is still -16 (101 GF, 117 GA). That is the ninth most goals allowed by an AHL on the road this season. For comparison\u2019s sake the Admirals have only allowed 82 goals on the road this season having played one less road contest than the Rampage.\n~Season Series~\nIf you\u2019re like me you probably feel like it has been ages since the Rampage last visited Milwaukee. And you\u2019d be right. The first game between these two came back on 11/24/15 in Milwaukee and ended with a 6-3 Admirals win. The two then met up in San Antonio when the new look Admirals defense, with Patrick Mullen and Stefan Elliott, formed and made their debuts to the team. On 1/15/16, Mullen made his debut and the Marek Mazanec recorded a shutout for a clean 3-0 win. 1/16/16 saw Elliott make his debut and the offense explode early for what would be a cruise controlled, and yet another, 6-3 Admirals win. Dating back to last season, when the Colorado Avalanche\u2019s AHL affiliate was Lake Erie, the Admirals hold a four-game winning streak against this outfit.\nThe Rampage have high end prospect Mikko Rantanen leading the charge of their offense. The 19-year old from Finland, who beat Kamenev\u2019s Team Russia in the 2016 IIHF World Junior Championships Gold Medal Game back in January, currently has 55 points (22 goals, 33 assists) in 46 games with a plus/minus rating of +21 and 40 penalty minutes. He is the top scoring rookie in the AHL this season. The next closest to him is Austin Czarnik of the Providence Bruins who has 52 points (15 goals, 37 assists) in 60 games. It might be worth noting Czarnik\u2019s rookie teammate on the Bruins Frank Vatrano who has a ridiculous 49 points (33 goals, 16 assists) in 33 games.\nRantanen is followed in team scoring for the Rampage by Maxim Noreau who has 41 points (12 goals, 29 assists) in 58 games. He is currently tied for fifth place among the highest scoring defensemen in the AHL.\nIn net, the Rampage currently have a tandem of Reto Berra and Roman Will. Berra has spent most of his time this season in the NHL with the Avalanche where he logged 14 games, earned 5 wins, and commanded a very respectable 2.41 goals against average with a 0.922 save percentage with 2 shutouts. In the AHL, Berra has played in 10 games and not found entirely the same individual success: 3.36 goals against average and 0.905 save percentage. He was the goalie of record in the Rampage\u2019s win in Rockford last night stopping 26/28 shots on goal. Should they see fit to ride him again it would make sense. His battery-mate Will has a 3.42 goals against average and 0.896 save percentage from 29 games of AHL work this season.\nWhat are your expectations for the Milwaukee Admirals tonight against these currently streaking San Antonio Rampage? Not to be out-done themselves \u2013 the Admirals do currently have a seven-game point streak. Will that streak continue on and see the Admirals get their playoff spot clinched this weekend?\nJuuse Saros Named AHL Goaltender of the Month\nPlayoff Hockey Is Back In Milwaukee; Ads Clinch With 2-1 Win",

        "raw_content": "Do Foster Parents Get Paid in Indiana?\nDFP-Zones\nFostering children can be one of the most difficult things you will ever do\u2014but it can also be one of the most rewarding life choices you can make. It is natural to want to gather as much information as possible when you are deciding whether or not to foster. One of the first things you should do is contact your local state agency for the most up-to-date information.\nIn Indiana, the need for foster parents is high, just like the national need. Children generally stay in homes on an average of two months, and over half of those kids are eventually reunited with their parents. Families work to provide loving, safe homes for these kids with an eye towards making sure that they make all available appointments, meetings, court cases, and keep up with their school and their family visits\u2014in a word, it\u2019s a busy life!\nIf you are over 21, you can begin the licensing process to become a foster care provider, and your assigned social worker can walk you through the steps. Here\u2019s what to expect:\nYou will need to pass an extensive background and licensing check\nYou will need to take classes and have your home approved for children\nYou will need to complete training in both First Aid and CPR\nIt will take, on average, about six months to complete training\nOnce you are approved and trained, a child will be placed with you, and you will be reimbursed on a per-diem basis. Generally, the payments come once a month, and each child will be covered for medical insurance under the state. But don\u2019t expect a \u201cbig paycheck\u201d for being a foster parent\u2014the funds generally cover additional food, gas, clothing, and other outputs that come from raising children. Foster parents don\u2019t provide care for kids in order to make money; they do it because they feel called to provide loving and stable homes for kids who are in a tough situation. If you feel like this is the life for you, contact your local foster agency and set up a meeting. The kids will change your life for the better!",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Will the Redskins Lose Their Trademarked Name?\nWill the Redskins Lose Their Trademarked Name?\nThere has been much debate and discussion over whether the Redskins\u2014Washington D.C.\u2019s professional football team in the National Football League\u2014should voluntarily change their name under the view that it disparages Native Americans. In May, the Washington Post reported that a poll of Native Americans across the country found that nine in ten Native Americans are not offended by the Redskins name.\nCopyright: tiero / 123RF Stock Photo\nRegardless of what any poll may or may not suggest, there is also a separate debate on this issue\u2014whether the Redskins should lose their federally-registered trademarks in the Redskins name. The basis for this debate is section 2(a) of the Lanham Act, which bars registration of disparaging words or phrases. And central to the debate is the First Amendment\u2019s guarantee of the right to free speech.\nIn 2015, when a federal district court affirmed the United States Patent and Trademark Office (\u201cUSPTO\u201d) cancellation of a number of the Redskins trademarks, it seemed almost certain that the Redskins would lose their trademarks. But then the Federal Circuit ruled in a separate matter\u2014related to the rock band the Slants\u2014that section 2(a) is itself an unconstitutional restriction on the right to free speech.\nThe decision related to the Slants was appealed to the United States Supreme Court, and now the question of whether section 2(a) can prohibit the Redskins trademarks may be headed to the same place. Initially, the Redskins filed an appeal of the cancellation of their trademarks to the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. But in April, shortly after the Slants case was appealed to the Supreme Court, the Redskins filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to hear the case before the Fourth Circuit issues a decision in light of the fact that the Supreme Court may hear the issue in the case involving the Slants. Although the Redskins team apparently believes that both cases should be decided by the same court, particularly given the sums of money it has spent building the Redskins brand, the government disagrees that the Supreme Court should hear the case. According to the New York Times, the Supreme Court only occasionally allows such a \u201ccertiorari before judgment.\u201d\nThe outcomes of this case and the Slants case, whether ultimately decided by the Supreme Court, may have a significant impact on the ability to register disparaging or offensive trademarks in the future. If section 2(a) is found by the Supreme Court to be unconstitutional, the USPTO would likely begin registering trademarks widely considered offensive or disparaging.\nTags: Lanham Act, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), U.S. Supreme Court, USPTO Trademark Trial & Appeal Board (TTAB), Washington Redskins",

        "raw_content": "Two of Laos' least developed towns to benefit from ADB grant\nTwo of Laos\u2019 least developed towns to benefit from ADB grant\nThe Asian Development Bank (ADB) last week approved a US$48 million grant for the improvement of urban environmental services and the enhancement of economic connectivity in Paksan and Thakhek, two of the least developed towns along the North-South Economic Corridor of the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) in Lao PDR.\nThe grant will bring the total allocated to the \u2018Fourth GMS Corridor Towns Development Project\u2019 to $54.06 million, of which the Lao government has contributed $6.06 million.\nThe project covers some 1,600 kilometres (about 990 miles) of the GMS Central Corridor encompassing 13 towns in Lao and Cambodia comprising some 20 million residents. According to the ADB the area has the potential to generate more than $20 billion in regional output.\nAdditional $30.5 million grant financing to to improve water supply and environmental services, benefiting some 100,000 urban residents from six towns\n\u201cDeveloping corridor towns is central to Lao PDR\u2019s economic growth and development as the country shares borders with all GMS countries\u201d, said the ADB\u2019s principal urban development specialist for Southeast Asia, Satoshi Ishii.\n\u201cThe project will help enhance the economic potential of Paksan and Thakhek through improved urban services and help capture the increasing regional trade and investment in the area\u201d, he said.\nAccording to the ADB only 12 per cent of households in Paksan have properly constructed and managed septic tanks and less than a half of households are being served by municipal solid waste service.\nSimilarly, only 20 per cent of households in Thakhek have septic tanks for sanitation, and less than 60 per cent are served by a functioning solid waste collection system.\nAmong other things, the Fourth \u2018GMS Corridor Towns Development Project\u2019 will pilot the first decentralised wastewater system in the country.\nFinancing will cover the construction of eight small-scale water treatment plants capable of treating some 1,700 cubic meters of sewage per day in the two corridor towns, and 27 kilometres (16.7 miles) of new sewerage networks.\nFunding will also assist town governments\u2019 to build landfills with a total combined capacity of 520,000 cubic meters (18.363 mln ft) to improve waste collection and management, as well as a 32 kilometre (19.8 mile) drainage network and a 6,070 meter (19,900 ft) levee for flood prevention.\nExpected to be completed by the end of 2023 it is hoped that the improvements will help promote regional tourism, and an environment capable of absorbing climate challenges.\nADB, Lao PDR\u2019s financial backbone\nThe ADB has been supporting developments in Lao PDR since 1968 and it remains one of the country\u2019s largest multilateral financiers. Up to April this year it had provided some $2.6 billion in loans, grants, and technical assistance. In 2016 and 2017 alone the bank provided a $278.17 million and $2.568 billion in assorted forms respectively.\nThe \u2018Fourth GMS Corridor Towns Development Project\u2019 funding comes just one week after the ADB approved an additional $30.5 million financing grant to improve water supply and environmental services in six towns (See: ADB grant allows Lao gov to add 150km to water distribution network).\nThe additional financing will benefit some 100,000 urban residents in six towns through an existing Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Project, which the bank first supported with a $35 million loan on October 9, 2013, and which Phu Bia Mining Limited donated $6 million.\nThe ongoing project has so far given about 110,000 urban residents from nine towns access to more effective and efficient water supply and sanitation services.\nAEC News Today Graphics\nAs of April this year, the Asian Development Bank has injected $2.6 billion in loans, grants, and technical assistance to Lao PDR\nExtreme seasonal variation in water availability, such as occurs in Laos, results in large differences in adequate water supplies between the dry and wet seasons.\nThe project is part of the government\u2019s goal of supplying piped water to 90 per cent of urban areas and sanitation to all urban areas by 2030.\nThe ADB also recently said that additional financing comprising a $23.14 million grant from the Asian Development Fund (ADF) and a $7.36 million grant from the ADF Disaster Risk Reduction Fund focused on climate adaptation efforts will add between 150km (93.2 miles) and 400km (248.5 miles) of water distribution pipelines in the project towns by the first quarter of 2023.\n$40.5m deal inked for sustainable, climate-smart agribusiness\nMeanwhile, the bank on September 7 signed an agreement with the Lao government for a $40.5 million policy-based grant to assist farmers and agribusinesses develop sustainable and climate-smart agriculture value chains in the country.\n\u2018Climate-Friendly Agribusiness Value Chains Sector Project\u2019 aims to assist farmers and agribusiness develop sustainable and climate-smart agriculture value chains in the country\nThe \u2018Climate-Friendly Agribusiness Value Chains Sector Project\u2019 is expected to benefit some 100,000 people from 20,000 households. Incomes are forecast to increase by at least 30 per cent, while agricultural sector challenges emanating from climate change are tackled.\nThe project is expected to create more commercialised, sustainable, and climate-resilient agricultural production, and promote competitiveness, as well as regional connectivity.\n\u201cAgriculture makes up a significant portion of the Lao PDR economy, but the sector\u2019s vulnerability to climate change threatened by floods and droughts puts the country\u2019s development prospect and food security at risk\u201d, said ADB Lao PDR country director Yasushi Negishi.\nThe initiative was designed in accordance with the government\u2019s Agriculture Development Strategy that will run until 2025.\nIt aims to boost the competitiveness of rice value chains in Khammouan, Saravan, and Savannakhet provinces, as well as vegetable value chains in the capital of Vientiane, and in Champasak, and Sekong provinces in support of the Lao PDR governments goal of producing agricultural crops and quality rice for domestic and export markets.\nFeature photo Axel Drainville\nADB approves USD 48 mln to improve environmental services in Lao PDR (Devdiscourse)\nADB Support to Improve Water Supply, Sanitation in 6 More Towns in Lao PDR (The Financial)\nADB and Lao PDR to jointly promote climate-smart agribusiness (Far Eastern Agriculture)\nTwo of Laos\u2019 least developed towns to benefit from ADB grant added by Stella-maris Ewudolu on September 24, 2018\nUnabated Climate Change: Asean Food Shortages, Overcrowding, Deaths\nADB Affirms Support For Vietnam, Cautions on SOEs\nIndonesia power project threatens Sumatra\u2019s Tapanuli orangutans survival (video)\nCambodia, Vietnam to Suffer Most from Mekong Damming\nid, non at adipiscing justo porta. et,",

        "raw_content": "Although it\u2019s winter in Colorado, I can\u2019t get bikes off my mind. I grew up on two wheels, tearing up\nAlthough it\u2019s winter in Colorado, I can\u2019t get bikes off my mind. I grew up on two wheels, tearing up the neighborhood to visit friends, savoring the freedom, the mobility, the wind in my face, and then eight years ago fell in love with mountain bikes. It wasn\u2019t, however, until I started working in Afghanistan that I really understood that a bike could be more than just a bike. This simple two-wheeled vehicle could also be a tool for social justice, providing easier access to schools, allowing midwives to better serve their rural communities, and giving girls a tool to prevent sexual assault and harassment.\nToday I work with a group of young women in that war-torn country who are breaking cultural barriers and risking their honor to ride bikes as members of the national women\u2019s cycling team. These young women are among the first generation of Afghan women to challenge deep-seated taboos, and they do so despite insults, harassments, and threats. They ride on IED-strewn roads, on trucking highways with no shoulders, and through the police checkpoints that dot the city streets.\nAmazingly, over the past two years since I first met the national cycling team, more groups of girls have emerged in other areas of the country, watching their brothers ride, and they have decided that they too had the right to find their freedom, and they\u2019ve begun borrowing bikes and teaching each other to ride, also.\nThe story of these courageous young women has inspired the upcoming documentary, Afghan Cycles, which is set to premiere in 2016. They have raced in India, Pakistan, and Kazakhstan; most recently were invited to compete at the Asia Games in South Korea; and the Danish clothing company NOA NOA launched an advertising campaign in support of the Afghan team centered around the concept of the \u201cstrength of women.\u201d\nRecently, the team was invited to Italy and England to take part in a series of rides and events, and a Swedish company committed to an ad campaign focused on the bravery of female athletes. Shirzanan Global, a magazine focused on Muslim female athletes, partnered with RAGBRAI, the famous bike race across Iowa, to bring a team of Muslim female cyclists to the States, hopefully including one or two of the Afghan riders, for this summer\u2019s event. These are all amazing steps for young women who have just learned to ride in a country that is still considered one of the worst in the world to be female.\nThen the Charlie Hebdo attacks happened. They were heart-breaking. Horrifying. Tragic. In the weeks that passed, there was more horror: the rise of ISIS, public beheadings of kidnapped journalists, Boko Harem kidnapping young girls and terrorizing villages, the ongoing Syrian conflict, and the Taliban\u2019s insurgency as the U.S. withdraws out of Afghanistan, all conflating the view that Muslims are terrorists and giving Islamaphobia fertile soil in which to take root.\nFear, alas, is perhaps the biggest threat to freedom. Self censoring begins, often by those scared but not directly threatened, allowing the bullies to win and freedoms to roll back. Just a few days ago, two of the cycling team\u2019s biggest supporters pulled out, one in Italy and one in Sweden, both citing an aversion to potential controversy in the wake of the Paris attacks. The Swedish company was creating an ad campaign around the team, much as NOA NOA did last fall, and was paying a stipend to help cover racing costs this year. The company\u2019s underwriting would have dramatically elevated the team\u2019s exposure and raised much-needed financial support. Now, less than two months before we were to fly the team to India for filming, the underwriting is gone. Gone because of fear.\nThe Swedes could have been bold and brave and gotten ahead of the story. They could have led. Instead, they censored themselves and abandoned their social responsibility. Their company could have driven social change in a positive way, with a unique opportunity, as it once promised, but it didn\u2019t. Rather, it let down a team of young women who are all too well-versed in disappointment and threats, and gave in to fear. The girls will get by, of course; a loss of funding hurts, but it pales compared to the threats they face every day. They will continue taking back the streets, claiming their rights, inspiring a global movement.\nAs most people know, the staff of Charlie Hebdo, despite unimaginable pain and loss, stood their ground. They published the next issue, on time, and with a press run that was four million copies more than usual. Threatened in the worst possible way, they stood tall in the face of violence, unwilling to let terrorists silence them. Fear would not make them cower.\nYou don\u2019t use your voice or stand up for your beliefs because it\u2019s easy to do so. You do these things because you are standing on the side of justice and reasoned behavior. This is not a privilege for the few, the wealthy, or the safe, this is the responsibility of all of us, because we\u2019re at risk of giving away our freedoms every time we silence ourselves in fear. It is a company\u2019s right to pull out, of course, but I find it telling that a bunch of teenage girls in a war zone is stronger than a corporation located in one of the safest places on earth.\nhttp://www.adventure-journal.com/2015/02/essay-in-wake-of-paris-attacks-afghan-women-cyclists-offer-lesson-in-courage-and-fear/\nLabels: Afghan, bicycle, cyclist, women",

        "raw_content": "Every major social pathology has been linked to Fatherless Children\n\u201cVirtually every major social pathology has been linked to fatherless children: violent crime, drug and alcohol abuse, truancy, unwed pregnancy, suicide, and psychological disorders \u2013 all correlating more strongly with fatherlessness than with any other single factor, surpassing even race and poverty. The majority of prisoners, juvenile detention inmates, high school dropouts, pregnant teenagers, adolescent murderers, and rapists come from fatherless homes. Children born from affluent but broken families are much more likely to get into trouble than children from poor but intact ones, and white children from separated families are at higher risk than black children in intact families. \u2026 Marshalling federal agencies to \u201cpromote\u201d something as private and personal as a parent\u2019s relationship with his own children raises questions. The assumption that the government has a legitimate role in ameliorating the problem of fatherlessness also glides quickly over the more fundamental question of whether the government has had a role in creating the problem. What we see in the \u201cfatherlessness crisis\u201d may be an optical illusion.

It\u2019s a growing question haunting policy makers in our nation\u2019s divorce and family courts.\nPoliticians accustomed to appeasing women\u2019s rights activists have made it expedient to abuse fathers for votes without any regard for its long term consequences. As a result, stigmatized fathers are surrendering to the stereotypes and abandoning their rightful roles as natural parents. It is a silent and insidious trend harming families, children and our society.\nWe all have some recognition of the injustices in these courts, but do we really know the severity of their consequences? The insidious harm is supported by numerous studies over the past three decades which show that father discrimination is at the root of today\u2019s unprecedented social problems.

        "raw_content": "[BLOG] Leveraging Social Entrepreneurs to Do Business in Africa\nAfrica has a significant contingent of social entrepreneurs making social impact. This same group is also a significant asset for business. Social entrepreneurs understand Africa, and this is something businesses need to enter African markets successfully points out Nassir Katuramu, Program Manager for Venture and Fellowship in East Africa for Ashoka, the pioneering support organization for social entrepreneurs.\nThere are many definitions of social entrepreneur, but Ashoka defines the role as simply a combination of the words, \u201csocial\u201d and \u201centrepreneur.\u201d In other words, \u201cWe\u2019re looking for individuals who have got the characteristics of your typical, leading business entrepreneur: they\u2019re visionary; they are able to mobilize resources; they are creative in the way that they approach challenges; they are able to manage a team and resources; and they\u2019re able to build a system that works on its own. This is what business entrepreneurs are known for,\u201d says Katuramu. \u201cBut then when you throw on the social piece, then it changes the context. So, it\u2019s not about the bottom line any more, it\u2019s more about a triple bottom line. It\u2019s about creating social transformation more than it is about making money.\u201c\nDavid Kuria, founder of Ecotact in Nairobi and an Ashoka Fellow, demonstrates his business savvy. Ecotact addresses the social issue of hygiene by providing clean, well-run public toilets. However, users pay a small fee to use the toilets. This fee is affordable for both lower and middle income people.\nSince the toilets have been successful and generate traffic flow, Kuria designed the areas to provide other services like shoe-shining stands and caf\u00e9s. Each toilet complex can bring in multiple streams of revenue while addressing public hygiene and also creating jobs or entrepreneurial opportunities for others. Kuria also generates revenue through advertising and has moved into franchising the model to expand.\nOne strength social entrepreneurs may have over a normal business entrepreneur is that they understand the importance of creating win-win situations for key stakeholders in the entire value chain and their business models often reflect this. In Kuria\u2019s case, he is providing a service that the City of Nairobi is to provide but has not been able to successfully. So, Kuria partners with the City to service public toilets under their authority, branding both Ecotact and the City. The City is empowered to deliver services through this partnership and improve its image overall. In exchange, Kuria gets key locations around the city.\nAnother Ashoka Fellow in Kenya, Haron Wachira, is working with rural agricultural communities. Kenya has many processing facilities that are used well below capacity because they cannot get enough agricultural inputs. Wachira guarantees the processing plants a certain amount of inputs from farmers in exchange for ownership in the processing facilities by farmers. Wachira also works with the farmers to make sure they can efficiently produce their crops.\nFor businesses looking to enter or expand into African markets, social entrepreneurs can serve as key partners. Social entrepreneurs like Wachira and Kuria demonstrate success in implementing market-based, for-profit models. They understand developing products for a market. Through this process, they have gained immense intellectual property about Kenyan markets and have established themselves in the local market. Companies who work with them can find avenues to accelerate market entry and acquire market information more readily. This can translate into reducing costs and minimizing risks.\nTraditionally, companies have partnered with social entrepreneurs on their corporate social responsibility programs, but for both companies and social entrepreneurs there is a new movement to partner on profit-making ventures. It is not hard to understand companies tapping into this opportunity, but some find it difficult to understand why social entrepreneurs would choose this route. The simple answer is sustainability.\nKaturamu explains, \u201c\u2026we have come from a time where social intervention was purely donor funded to a point in time where, caused by the pressures in the economy, [there is] a cut back on the amount of dollars that are coming in, in terms of donations. So, now that the donor money is shrinking what organizations are having to do is to figure out how to sustain their primarily social goals by integrating within their models a revenue-generating component, so to speak. So that has given birth to what is commonly known as social enterprises. Social enterprises can be profitable, so depending on who is at the helm of a particular social enterprise, it can be designed to make a profit for its owners and shareholders.\u201d\nProfit is a means, as is donor-funding, to an end for social enterprises, but it also reduces the reliance on others to financially support the drive for social transformation. Businesses also help social entrepreneurs scale their business models, thereby increasing their potential for social impact.\nAshoka calls these partnerships between business and social entrepreneurs in commercial ventures, \u201chybrid value chains (HVCs)\u201d. Katuramu says Ashoka has seen the success of HVCs in other global regions but notes they are still looking for firms to latch hold of the idea in Africa.\nLeveraging social entrepreneurs to do business in Africa reflects an overall strategy of leveraging networks to do business. Without the right networks, firms will likely find many more challenges which are hard to overcome in Africa. But those who know understand this is true of business anywhere.\nLauri Elliott is a strategist with over 25 years of business experience, specializing in global business, innovation, technology, and new ventures and start-ups.

        "raw_content": "Research outputs by Africa Food Prize winner, the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), and its national partners are helping farmers to come out of poverty, creating jobs and demonstrating the possibility of having a prosperous African continent, says the Director-General of IITA, Dr Nteranya Sanginga today.\nAddressing stakeholders at the Food Security Future Summit held at the Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta, on Wednesday, Dr Sanginga said: \u201cwhat is needed in Africa is the political and collective will to act.\u201d\nHe noted that Africa could achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (especially goal number 2 also known as Zero Hunger) by 2030 if governments on the Continent made a departure from mere rhetoric to taking action.\nLooking at global trends, the IITA boss said that by 2050, Africa\u2019s population will double.\n\u201cWhat that means is that we will have to feed more people. We will need more jobs for our youths. We will need more land, water, etc to produce food.\n\u201cClearly, if we continue with a business as usual approach, we will be in trouble,\u201d he added.\nThe director general also spoke on the disturbing trends of youth unemployment in Africa, citing that in Nigeria, between 2001 and 2010; 22 million young people entered the labour market in search for jobs.\n\u201cSome of these young people end up without decent jobs. In spite of our arable land, majority of African farmers are poor\u2014most of them living on less than two dollars a day. Again malnutrition is widespread. So, we need to act and change this narrative!\u201d Dr Sanginga who was represented by Godwin Atser, IITA Communication & Knowledge Exchange Expert said.\nDr Sanginga, however, said that there was a ray of hope for the continent and he cited some of the achievements made by IITA which culminated in the winning of the Africa Food Prize as a centre for research excellence.\nHe said the youth program at IITA, that is providing decent jobs for young people in agriculture, was a model that African nations could embrace and replicate to solve youth unemployment on the continent.\nHe also noted that some of the breakthroughs if scaled out could lift Africa out of poverty and bring the continent on the path of prosperity. These include IITA improved varieties of cassava, maize, soybean, yam, banana/plantain, and cowpea that are resistant to pest and diseases, and high yielding.\n\u201cBesides, we also have several other initiatives/projects that have demonstrated how countries can transform agriculture. For instance, the IITA Cassava Weed Management Project clearly demonstrates the possibility of doubling cassava yield from the current national average of 10 tons/ha to more than 20 tons per ha,\u201d he added.\nThe summit, which had the theme: The Role of Stakeholders in Harnessing Nigeria\u2019s Agricultural Potential for Food Security, Nutrition and Sustainable Development,was organised by the Community Action on Food Security Initiative\u2014a non-governmental organisation as part of activities to mark the World Food Day.\nThe Convener of the Summit, Azeez Akanni Salawu said the objective of the summit was to spark critical discussions, inspire, engage, network, connect and form a formidable partnership that will be based on investing in food security and rural development leading to the achievement of the SDGs.\nGODWIN ATSER, Ibadan\nPreviousThe International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) Wins the 2018 African Food PrizeNext Boosting R&D Capacity for Sustainable Agriculture",

        "title": "South Africa: Ramaphosa navigates tricky transition - African Business Magazine",
        "raw_content": "South Africa: Ramaphosa navigates tricky transition\nBearing floral wreaths and observed by a crowd of local supporters, the newly elected leadership of the ANC marked 106 years of the party by solemnly visiting the East London gravesite of four founding presidents.\nUnited by their storied history, the stark political differences between incoming president Cyril Ramaphosa, deputy president David Mabuza and secretary general Ace Magashule were momentarily obscured. While the celebration of long-dead leaders remains a bonding force, navigating the living legacy of Jacob Zuma \u2013 the ANC\u2019s most recent leader and South Africa\u2019s divisive outgoing president \u2013 is a far more fraught challenge.\nSince being narrowly elected ANC leader in December in a bitter inter-party contest against Zuma\u2019s hand-picked successor, the pro-business Ramaphosa has quietly set about grasping the reins of power. Yet with Zuma allies elected to key senior roles in the party, Ramaphosa\u2019s ability to close an era of state patronage, sluggish economic growth and unending political scandal remains in doubt.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a very tricky transition period. Ramaphosa does have the upper hand at the moment \u2013 the momentum is in his favour, there are defections from the Zuma camp and everyone knows he will be the next president,\u201d says Robert Besseling, political analyst at ExxAfrica.\n\u201c[But] Zuma is still firmly entrenched in the party and government \u2013 of the new leadership three of the top six are in his camp, more than half of the National Executive Committee are still associated with the Zuma camp and the vast majority of lawmakers in parliament are in the Zuma camp.\u201d\nThe fractured political landscape is complicated by an ANC quirk which means that while Ramaphosa is now party leader of the ANC, Zuma officially remains president of South Africa until the 2019 elections \u2013 a system seemingly designed to fuel government inertia and inter-party factionalism. At time of going to press, rumours suggested that Zuma could be ousted in a matter of weeks.\nFaced with this delicate balancing act but safe in the knowledge that time was on his side, Ramaphosa had previously broached the question of Zuma\u2019s early exit with magnanimity, sending signals that a dignified transition was likely.\n\u201cWe need to deal with this matter with the level of maturity it requires, with the proper decorum and I\u2019ll say we should never do it in a way that\u2019s going to humiliate President Zuma. We should never do it in a manner that\u2019s going to also divide the nation,\u201d he told local media.\nWhether Zuma departs immediately or clings on, the terms of exit are likely to be keenly fought over. Zuma\u2019s priority is to continue avoiding hundreds of criminal charges stemming from his alleged role in a multi-billion rand arms deal dating back to the 1990s, as well as delaying further legal pressure relating to corruption allegations.\nWhile Ramaphosa is keen to avoid anything that smacks of the humiliation of his predecessor, shielding his rival from criminal charges would be a controversial and uncomfortable move for a politician who made anti-corruption efforts a key plank of his election strategy. A delayed pardon could allow him to save face.\n\u201cIt\u2019s certainly possible that if Zuma is going to be retired early there could still be legal proceedings underway, but I don\u2019t believe they can be short-circuited or undercut in terms of an intervention [by Ramaphosa],\u201d says political analyst Daniel Silke. \u201cBut an intervention could come at a later stage should Zuma fall foul of the courts \u2013 it\u2019s possible I suppose that a deal can be struck whereby some sort of pardon is granted should that occur.\u201d\nIndeed, Ramaphosa\u2019s confidence in a smooth transition may be buoyed by the knowledge that Zuma\u2019s legal woes have limited his room for manoeuvre. In December, the High Court gave Ramaphosa the power to appoint the next head of the National Prosecuting Authority, handing Ramaphosa powerful leverage.\nZuma\u2019s announcement that he would finally set up a commission of inquiry into state capture allegations following apparent pressure from Ramaphosa was an acknowledgement that he no longer holds all the cards. Yet the ANC are desperate to avoid the ignominy of continued factionalism, given the consequences for the ANC\u2019s 2019 election campaign.\nGupta fallout\nComplicating matters further, legal processes beyond South African shores may shine further light into the murky corners of the Zuma era \u2013 particularly the activities of his friends the Gupta business family \u2013 and increase pressure for action at home. In the United States, the FBI have begun a probe of individuals, bank accounts and companies linked to the Guptas, while US and UK regulators have also begun inquiries into banks\u2019 ties with the family.\n\u201cIt does look as though Ramaphosa\u2019s administration will not protect the Guptas in the way they have been protected and there are rumblings in terms of the National Prosecuting Authority and what they are planning. That would be highly significant \u2013 if action is taken against them over the next few weeks that would indicate a shift in Ramaphosa\u2019s attitude,\u201d says Silke.\nWhile action against the Guptas could act as a safety valve for Zuma \u2013 sating a public desire for retribution \u2013 it will also complicate matters for Zuma loyalists in the Ramaphosa government, some of whom enjoyed close relations with the family and will be wary of antagonising their new boss.\n\u201cMany of the [Zuma] loyalists are pliable, swayable and will try and ingratiate themselves to a degree, especially in light of a state capture judicial inquiry\u2026 there\u2019s every good reason why they\u2019d want to be in Ramaphosa\u2019s good books,\u201d says Silke.\nEven given this apparent weakness, Zuma loyalists could continue to wield a veto on the direction of Ramaphosa\u2019s economic policies, thwarting his pro-business leanings in favour of the populist programme of his predecessor. That may lead to wrangles over the appointment of a new finance minister, renewing tensions in the ANC and putting a question mark over Ramaphosa\u2019s authority.\n\u201cOn economic policy there\u2019s a distinct conflict and there will be many policy battles between various factions of the ANC, says Silke. \u201cRamaphosa will have to steer that\u2026 there\u2019s a lot of contradictions there and a lot of work that needs to be done and that\u2019s going to create divisions for years to come.\u201d\nFor now, current finance minister Malusi Gigaba appears to be toeing the line drawn by his new boss. \u201cWhat I will be doing at the budget will be to announce the tough decisions to stabilise the debt but reduce the budget deficit\u2026 South Africans will have to bear some pain,\u201d he told reporters in January.",

He uttered it emphatically, as if it was a wondrous revelation. It felt like an enormous compliment. \u201cThank you, so are you!\u201d I replied.\nOf all the statements about my multiracial \u201cmixed\u201d features, indeed of all the comments about my appearance, you are the face of the future has a special ring to it. It seems so alluring. There is a fierce optimism to it. As if my face itself held a revolution. As if I held the ideal future in my DNA.\nAs much as I would like to be a part of the future\u2014the better, brighter future, I\u2019m sure that everyone wants to be a part of it too. No one wants their existence to be diminished or dismissed. Not now, certainly not for posterity. What that ideal future would look like and how we go about achieving it\u2014that\u2019s where we differ, that\u2019s what we argue about and shed blood over.\nTo me, the ideal future is a green, technologically advanced utopia, where massive problems such as poverty and pollution have been left behind for good. Where no one must fight for basic human rights, or the necessities of food, water, shelter and healthcare. Where education, opportunity and dignity are given to all humans, freely and readily. I would also like to see an end to senseless violence. If even just one of these dreams could inch closer to becoming a reality, it would be a massive leap in the right direction. However, I am no idealist. I do not dream of a world of total predictability, without any danger or risk, struggle or pain.\nBut who am I to say I know what\u2019s right for humanity? Who am I to conceive of any kind of progress? Who am I to even allude to being the face to the future? What is anyone\u2019s claim to any of this anyway?\nTo any endangered animal, the best future would be one without any humans in it; to a redwood tree, the prospect of more sunlight, clean water and nutrients; to a fish, an end to pollution and fishing; to people already wealthy and powerful, more supporters giving them and their descendants more power; to the poor and marginalized, even wealth distribution and equal representation. (Note: I write \u201ceven\u201d and \u201cequal\u201d on the assumption that the poor and marginalized would not want to extend this terrible fate to others by wanting more than just a fair share!) It is our nature to wish for any opportunity, big or small, to tip the scales in our favor.\nWhere our progress begins and another being\u2019s progress ends is where our grandest concepts materialize to explain why it must be so. Religion, democracy, imperialism, fascism, communism, humanism, even investment and taxation, all are driven and supported by ideas of progress, of the work needed in the present to achieve a better tomorrow (or heavenly afterlife). Behind the rhetoric of every politician, preacher, any thought leader, charlatan or street hustler is the promise of a generous reward for the often arduous task at hand. A collective motivation for the individual sacrifice\u2014something bigger, broader, more valuable than oneself. I do not profess to be any different. After all, I desire a future that would please the likes of humanists such as of Martin Luther King Jr., Malala Yousafzai, and the Parkland Teens, any of whom are vastly more deserving to be the face of the future than I am.\nAs much as I would love to be the face of the future, the truth of who I am, how I came to be\u2014all the histories that culminate into this precise present may not be at all uplifting. As far as I know, I am actually a product of the colonialist past, a past that was often oppressive and violent, a history of injustice and brutal subjugation. As much as we love to dream about the great progress and advancement of a beautiful someday not too far-away, if we don\u2019t reckon with this past, we may never solve the glaring problems of the present and create a future we all want.\nA short time ago, I decided to examine my past in letters, not only through the letters of the English language, but also in the four-letter sequence of my DNA code. Both have incredible power in their multitudes of combinations. As humans, we may not share the same language, but we all share 99.9% percent of the same DNA code. I had the overwhelming desire to learn if a disparity exists between this new genetic evidence and the notions of who I am told to me by my family and by society. I decided to send a sample of my DNA to a lab for analysis.\nCurrently, the results still remain a mystery and they would have remained so had I not changed my mind. Ironically, I was and still am the most reluctant candidate for genetic testing. I am strongly resistant to identifying with any specific group or categorizing people rigidly by their race or religion. Having been subjected to hurtful prejudice and racism myself, I can only urge others to be extremely wary of groupings and of group mentalities. Although everyone should be proud of who they are and where they come from, being of mixed race and having a multicultural background has, at times, been an overcomplicated identity struggle for me. I often find myself pinpointing and letting go of preconceived notions of who I am, what I\u2019m supposed to be, or of the people like me.\nJust how disparate is my reality from the expectations and assumptions? My story from the other stories overwriting mine? My truth from the truths of others?\nThe world is vast compared to one human brain. The universe is vast compared to all the humans on the planet. Yet, somehow, certain people can claim to know most of it and be believed. I do not profess to know very much at all. But I am finally ready to explore, observe and report back.\nThis marks the beginning of my journey into my origins and I hope you will join me! I will retrace my past as I reflect on my identity and my struggles even as I try to conceive a better future\u2014one more resilient, inclusive and tantalizingly approachable. These essays will become part of a series on this blog called \u201cOrigins\u201d and they will be gathered in a complete book called The Origins of New Life, which will culminate with the results of my genetic testing and further revelations. I\u2019m looking forward to sharing it all here with you!\n21 thoughts on \u201cThe Face of the Future\u201d\nIt\u2019ll my honor to be a part of your journey of discovery.\nI promised myself to be a little more optimistic, but how can I? When it comes to me, ok, I might try, when it comes to this sad world of ours, I can\u2019t even if I try. How can I when bombs are being thrown on Syria? We will never learn because all we care is our own personal interests, never the others.\nBlogging_with_Bojana , April 15, 2018 at 8:58\nThank you so much for joining me! I know what you mean, it can be very challenging to be optimistic in this world of ours, I don\u2019t think it is necessarily bad to be pessimistic or sad about the state of things either. I confess, my daily outlook is normally sorrowful, if you read the news or any history, self-interest and suffering seem constant and know no bounds. But I also think how terrible it would be if no one tried to voice their opinion against an injustice or against war or fight for things that they believe in, the world would be way more horrible without this struggle for justice and peace.\nM.P. Baecker , April 16, 2018 at 13:46\nAbsolutely. That\u2019s why we are doing it\u2026constantly, right?\nBlogging_with_Bojana , April 16, 2018 at 15:38\nIt was a great read. All the best for your journey. \ud83d\ude42\nadreamy1 , April 14, 2018 at 10:00\nThanks so much! I love sharing my stories with readers like you!\nFascinating. A journey of discovery lies ahead I think.\nanne leueen , April 14, 2018 at 3:07\nThanks so much! I am so glad you are joining me!\nI share your desire for a world like this. It is nice to wish.\nBrandewulf , April 13, 2018 at 20:30\nIt\u2019s too nice a dream to never let go of brother! Let\u2019s never let this dream lose its hope!\nIt is too nice. I won\u2019t let go\u2026as Tom says, us high level optimists need to stay the course.\nSo much yes! Your ideal future, and mine, are in lock step; I dream what you dream. It\u2019s a pity that more people can\u2019t see the truth behind the lies, that differences are designed \u2013 naturally and unnaturally \u2013 to enfeeble us. To empower the few over the many. I am a human that wants what is best for all humans. All the planet, all its life. I want progress for humanity, but that progress takes the form of egalitarianism, of utopianism. I don\u2019t apologize for idealism; I still believe that if you reach for the sky you achieve more than if you cling to the base.\nYour heart and words, and your humility, make you as deserving as the luminaries you mention, in my eyes.\nI can\u2019t wait to read the rest of the series. Might have to look into that decoding for myself!\nTom Being Tom , April 13, 2018 at 20:20\n\u201cI am a human that wants what is best for all humans. All the planet, all its life.\u201d I\u2019m going to print that out in gold ink, frame it and hang it in my hallway! \ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f Tom, you are an incredible talent at writing synopsis and capturing the heart of things! I must say Bravo brother!\ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f\nI also love that quote about reaching for the sky, another blogger, the vapor sage had this in his website too and I love it: \u201cIt\u2019s better to aim for the stars and land on the moon than to aim for a mud puddle and hit it.\u201d \u2013Norman Vincent Peale\nYour support and in-depth readings really humble me and I feel so happy and blessed to share this journey with you! By the way, genetic testing is fairly easy and open to anyone these days for about $50-60, it struck me when I wrote the E.E. Cummings quote in my last post replying to you that you share the same last name! Coincidence?\ud83e\udd14\nI\u2019m thinking it probably is! But, who knows. Will a genetic test tell me? \ud83d\ude09\nIt\u2019s been my experience that, by and large, we get in our life what we focus on in our life. So, if mud is what we want, mud is what we get. I want the moon, and maybe a couple of stars. In fact, I\u2019ve reached a certain age where I hate getting my boots dirty, at all. \ud83d\ude0e\nKeep to the stars Tom! I\u2019m with you! \ud83d\udc9a I\u2019ve had enough of the mud too!\nBelieve it or not, the genetic testing may show you new family connections to certain people if it leads you back to the same ethnicity or region, many tests also offer a family tree that you can fill out online, you can find some long lost distant relatives that way. I just found out a distant cousin (my grandfather\u2019s sister\u2019s line) took the same genetic test that I did! Actually, we are all related, so it may not matter all that much, but it\u2019s great for piecing together the migrations of the past.\nLet us know when we can pre-order \u201cThe Origins of New Life\u201d!\ngarysinversion , April 13, 2018 at 20:12\nThanks so much for asking! I will be sure to link the book to this blog once it comes out! But I will be sharing a few parts of the book here as a sneak peak!\nIf only more had the attitude to question and realize that one cannot know for sure what is best for any. There are those however that do and are likely mistaken\n@vapor_sage , April 13, 2018 at 17:15\nI love how you put it, \u201cone cannot know for sure what is best for any.\u201d So beautiful! I love your writing here and in your blog!\nI constantly wonder how to get people to question their convictions and assumptions more, especially the ones that are harming others or firmly established as \u201cjust the way things are\u201d. I think this is the artist\u2019s or writer\u2019s greatest challenge and purpose to destabilize the \u201cnormal\u201d. Perhaps it is a personal decision that can only be shown and followed by example, I really hope and strive to achieve that with my stories on self discovery.\nThis is so incredibly touching, thought provoking and exciting. I feel like it is a privilege to be able to witness this journey that you are so courageously sharing. Thank you!\nfloweringink , April 13, 2018 at 16:31\nGreat post with great title .\nBen Aqiba , April 13, 2018 at 15:24\nThanks so much! I am so happy to share these stories with you!",

        "raw_content": "Anti-corruption protests\nThis is not the first time we have seen anti-corruption being carried out on the continent. The same is unraveling in Spain now and earlier in the year Slovakians took to the streets to protest the actions of the left. All of this is against the corrupt European bureaucrats, playing master puppeteer.\nNow it is Romania\u2019s turn to take up the reins. An estimated 30-60000 people have taken to the streets in the Romania\u2019s capital, Bucharest to protest low wages, new laws to protect the politicians implicit in corruption people, we all know why you are trying to implement these laws), as well as the misuse of European funding. These have all lead to a major internal event like this happening. No longer are people of Romania wanting to put up with the European bureaucrats playing god with the politics that affect all Romanian\u2019s. They are undermining the basic human rights of people that live in Romania and those that live abroad. They see this as a gross miscarriage of justice and are standing up to what they believe in.\nLike I said. Tens of thousands of people, both those living in Romania as well as those living abroad have taken to the streets in anger. What has the Romanian government done? Oh, just ordered riot police to quash these protests. Hundreds have been injured from exposure to tear gas. Social media has been instrumental in organising this event. Facebook and Twitter have been essential in the spreading of word to rally against the government. Both in Romania and to Romanians living outside borders. Many have return, to support their fellow countrymen in the fight against a government they see, in their eyes, is stripping away fundamental rights of their countrymen. The President of Romania has condemned the attacks ordered by the governing social democrats. He is an outspoken critic of the leftist party and the changes to the law that would see its politicians get away with corruption charges. However, he has explained that the protestors that attempted to storm the house of government should also take some of the blame.\nAltogether Romanian citizens are standing up for what they believe in. It is just another example of the \u2018people power\u2019 that we as citizens of the world can show. To stand up and show the people that are in \u2018power\u2019, that really are not. That it is the citizens living there that have the true power. It is proving that if you step out of line. We will take from you all that so called \u2018power\u2019 you have stupidly thought you had.\nSumming up what is going on in Romania now. I believe that no amount of riot police can kill the vibe and mood of these protestors. Both in the capital and the other events that are simultaneously going on in other parts of the country. There will be more crack down and more injuries, on both sides. That I can definitely say to be true. Not until the governing party takes steps to change what it plans to implement will we see quiet on the streets in Romania. Meanwhile, what are the fat cat bureaucrats doing in Europe? From their track record they will be more than likely to extinguish the flames that these protestors have put into motion. Instead of having a backbone and doing what is right for the Romanian citizens, bringing peace and stability to the country. They would rather back the ruling leftist party as they see this as holding onto what little amount of left wing governing parties they have left.\nI am afraid that until a political change occurs. Violence on the streets will continue to plague Romania. Be careful of the webs of fake news that the left will no doubt weave, to shift the blame from government on to protestors.\nGood luck to all Romanian\u2019s. we stand with you against the tyranny of the bureaucratic left-wing politicians.\n#romaniaprotests #anticorruption #kovesi\nWriter of this article:\nAlex Huskinson\nPrevious A bygone era\nNext The Iron Fist",

        "raw_content": "I lie awake thinking of you, meditating on you through the night.\nI woke up a few times in the middle of the night this week and I used to wonder why but now I know that it\u2019s just God wanting to get my attention. Back in the day I used to channel surf or flip through Instagram but that didn\u2019t help me fall back to sleep. Now I read my bible or meditate on a verse. The meditating is cool and easy. Literally just repeating the same verse over and over in your mind. A few of my favorites, God is within her, she will not fail (Psalm 46:5) or blessed is she who believed that the Lord would fulfill his promise to her (Luke 1:45).\nIf that doesn\u2019t work I try to retell a biblical story in my head. I\u2019m doing the bible in a year reading plan so I will retell the story of Jacob, Rachel and Leah or the story of Joseph, all in Genesis. Some times I just lay there and say God I\u2019m listening\u2026is there something you want to say to me or get my attention? When you ask God to speak to you, he will, but your mind has to be clear to hear what he is saying. Meditating is a good way to clear your head so you can be open to what God has to say.\nSpiritual check \u2192",

        "raw_content": "In My Community: The CEO Sleepout Recap\n(Image via Global News Winnipeg)\nThis morning I woke up at 7am in a sleeping bag in a flower bed at Portage and Main.\nI spent the night outside as part of The CEO Sleepout, an annual event which aims to raise awareness about Winnipeg's homeless community through fundraising efforts, community outreach, tours, and spending the night outside to gain a deeper understanding of what homelessness is like in our city.\nA quick backstory: I'm from a suburb called Riverbend, which is far from our downtown core. I grew up being taught that Aboriginal people -especially the ones experiencing homelessness- were people to be feared and avoided. Since then I've lived in downtown neighbourhoods (Osborne Village, West Broadway and Wolseley, respectively) since my early twenties, but it's taken a very long time to start to start to undo the prejudices and assumptions that I learned around the dinner table.\nWith that in mind, I expected the CEO Sleepout to be an important event for me, but I didn't fully anticipate how profoundly my evening would affect me, and I'd like to share that with you.\nOne of the portions of the evening -and, I'd argue, the most important- were the tours through various homeless shelters and rooming facilities where over 500 of Winnipeg's homeless population spend the night.\nWhat I'm about to say is really hard for me to write.\nOne of the stops on the tours was the Main Street Project, a location which offers emergency shelter and food services, a drug and alcohol detoxification unit, and transitional housing, among other important services. As we passed through the building, I noticed a man standing off in a corner, sweeping a broom and talking to one of the workers.\nI recognized this man.\nI knew him from all the times he had asked me for money, all the times he got too close to me and made me afraid, and all the times I had deliberately crossed the street away from him because his tall, imposing stature, inability to speak coherently, and dishevelled look frightened me.\nFor the very first time I saw him as a human being. A real person, instead of a threat.\nTyping that, and sharing that statement with all of you is extremely difficult for me to do.\nI feel such a deep and profound sense of shame over how I previously felt about him, how I completely disregarded that he has a story, a struggle, and that he's just doing the very best that he can with the limited tools at his disposal.\nI had to fight hard to hold back tears as we completed the tour.\nThis morning I had the opportunity to talk to Chad (pictured above) who has been homeless for three years. We talked for a while and he told me about how he stopped caring for himself after his wife died, how he's struggled with addiction and low self-worth, and how he's fighting a steep uphill battle to detox and get better. Chad's holding one of the thermal sleeping mats that John and I gave out, and I told him that the next time we see each other on the street, that I'll buy him a coffee and he can tell me about his progress.\nHe said \"I hope I have good news to tell you, but I can't promise anything. There isn't much good news in the homeless community these days.\"\nChad wasn't the only person experiencing homelessness that I had the opportunity to speak with, but I wanted to share his story, specifically, because it shows how easy is is for us to slip into a downward spiral.\nHaving the opportunity to connect with people, hear their stories, and learn about their struggles is, in my opinion, where the real value of The CEO Sleepout really lies.\nLast night when I posted a the above picture on Instagram someone left the following comment: \"Do they have lobster this year? And security to keep away those dreaded homeless. Make them watch your empathy at a safe distance.\"\nThat comment has been making me feel sick since last night, because it's indicative of a larger problem within our society. Namely, that taking the time to write a snarky comment disparaging other people's efforts to raise money and awareness about a serious issue is somehow acceptable. That making assumptions about the efforts of others and responding with cynicism instead of participating and making a difference is a suitable course of action to take (it isn't, and it doesn't help anyone, either.)\nIt's easy to be cynical from the safety of your home, but it takes guts and courage to step up and say \"I want to be a part of a solution.\"\nAs a small business owner, citizen of Winnipeg, and a resident of one of the poorest federal ridings in the country, I have a responsibility to make my voice heard. I have an obligation to share my stories and experiences, and to take the time to give back to my community and try to make my city a better place for everyone to live.\nSure, the CEO Sleepout isn't perfect, and there isn't a single perfect solution to ending homelessness in our city, but taking time from our days to ask for donations, raise money to help fund jobs and training, tour emergency and shelter facilities, and spend a night on the cold ground to get a glimpse of what it's like to spend a night on the streets is a worthwhile endeavour, and something that I feel everyone -not just people from Winnipeg, and certainly not just CEOs- should do at least once.\nYou can still donate to the CEO Sleepout, and I encourage you to give whatever you can. Even five dollars will make a difference in someone's life.\nIf you can't afford to donate, consider giving some of your time to places like Siloam Mission, who are always looking for volunteers (I've volunteered there and can attest that it's a truly rewarding experience.)\nEven if you can't do either, thank you for reading this post, and thank you for sharing in this journey with me. I hope to see you out at Portage and Main next year.\nTags: Winnipeg The CEO Sleepout Homelessness Canada My Community\n7 Ways to Make a Buyer-Centric Website\nSeptember 21, 2015 - 10:20am - by Alyson Shane\nOne of the harsh realities about running a business is this: nobody cares about your products or services except you (sorry/not sorry.)\nWhat they do care about is finding solutions to their own problems, and making sure that your website provides them with the information and tools to help them diagnose their problem, determine a solution, and take steps to solve it is a crucial part of turning them from a visitor into a customer or client.\nOne way that businesses approach helping their audience solve their problems is to link to landing pages based on the problems their product or service can solve. Each of these paths, starting with the landing pages, contains unique content designed to communicate your expertise in solving these problems.\nBy creating engaging, unique and helpful content, you can build some empathy and move your audience along the buying cycle, prompting them to fill in a contact form, call a number, or send you a request for assistance.\nBelow are a seven ways to make a buyer-centric website:\n1. Make sure your site is current.\nMaking sure that the content found on the pages of your site is current and up-to-date within your area of expertise, and don't forget to update your employee roster, product lists, and anything other which might change over time. Additionally, having a website with an easy to navigate, up-to-date layout which is optimized for mobile is another integral part of their user experience, and one which will stick with them long after they've navigated away from your page.\n2. Have some personality.\nyour website needs to be a reflection of you and your brand, which means that it needs to convey more about you than just what you offer; everything from the layout, to the tone of your copy, to the photos you choose, must contribute to an overall understanding of who you are.\n3. Use photos and images.\nThe days of walls of text are long gone, and people's attention spans are honestly just too short to sift through a page that looks like something written by Charles Dickens.\n(don't do this)\nLuckily digital mediums allow you to break up you text and present it in various ways that don't contribute to your reader going cross-eyed, or worse leaving your page altogether. Some ways you can spruce up your content are:\nCustom photos & memes\n4. Make your content interactive.\nGetting people involved with your content is one of the easiest ways to keep them interested and move them through your sales cycle. Include charts and forms where applicable, and links to contact you whenever necessary\n5. Focus on feedback loops.\nDon't make visitors hunt around your site for ways to get in touch with you. Easy to find \"contact us\" links are essential, and direct feedback options like \"rate this\" buttons, online forums, review and opportunities to post comments allow your visitors to feel more engaged with you beyond just using your services\n6. Include social media share buttons.\nIncluding social media \"share\" buttons is a quick and effective way to encourage visitors to your site to engage with and share what you have to say. All your content (blog posts, whitepapers, videos, etc)\n7. Think about your visitors' learning style.\nSome people prefer to read articles, some like videos, and others prefer audio. Some prefer all three! Doing a bit of research and seeing what similar sites are doing to present their information will give you valuable insight into how your visitors will want to consume the information that you have to share.\nBy focusing on these key elements, you can make sure that your website is buyer-friendly, leads them down the right paths, and (most importantly) is an enjoyable experience for them to use. Remember: for many people, your website is the first glimpse that they get of you as a brand, and their experience will likely dictate their relationship with you from that point onward!\nTags: Marketing Websites How-to Content Marketing\n5 Essential Content Marketing Habits\nSeptember 18, 2015 - 12:13pm - by Alyson Shane\nContent marketing is one of the move valuable tools at your disposal to add value to your marketing strategy. Good content educates your audience, prospects potential clients, and when done correctly does a powerful job of advertising your brand message.\nHowever, if you're managing multiple accounts at once and want to stay as organized and focused as possible, it's necessary to start developing the right habits as early as possible. Below are a few key things that I've learned which have helped me save my sanity, and be better at what I do.\n1. Track Your To-Dos\nI've mentioned my daily checklist in a previous post, but having a concrete, written plan for what you need to do each day/week/month/etc is unbelievably helpful. This is especially true when you're working on a project which requires a team effort, and a bit of project management.\nMy favourite tool for this purpose is Trello because it's super-easy to learn to use, has a simple design based on columns and checklists, and allows you to drag specific tasks \"bubbles\" around between columns, so everyone can see where you are on a specific project.\nHere's an example via a quick Google Image search to give you an idea of what it looks like:\nHaving tools like Trello (or Asana, or Slack, whatever your preference) helps with communication in teams who may not be in the same office, or even the same country, and allows you to easily keep track of who is working on which portion of the project, and where they're at. Being able to access this stuff at-a-glance is super easy, and saves a ton of time.\n2. Establish Milestone and Conversion Goals\nBefore you sit down and start tweeting or posting, establish what your definition of \"successful\" looks like. Is it 2,000 newsletter subscribers by Thanksgiving? To speak at a nationwide conference next year? Maybe hit a million visitors to your website this month?\nWhatever the case, by developing a clear vision of success and what it looks like not only helps you plan how you will achieve those goals, but also helps you have a clear game plan which can be adapted to deal with any unexpected changes.\nConversions are the best way to measure the success of your campaign (think bread-crumb trail) and anything that you do which leads a user down your breadcrumb trail is worth tracking.\n3. Analyze Behaviours and Achievements\nBehaviours are the actions that visitors take once they arrive at your website, and achievements are when they behave based on the breadcrumbs that you left for them to follow.\nBy keeping track of how people move through your (or a client's) website, you can gain valuable information as to how people are getting there, and how they're moving around. Ideally, they'll follow a set of pre-defined steps that you've put in place in order to get them to visit a particular page, or buy a product.\nSo whenever you identify a new measurable behaviour (maybe your traffic goes up, your website's ranking increases, your click-through rate increases, etc) you can analyze the behaviours that led to the increase, and refine and revise when necessary to make sure things keep going well.\n4. Get In the Cloud\nThis took me longer to get into the habit of doing than I'd like to admit, but saving all your documents, contracts, photos, and work in the cloud (I use Google Drive) is the only way to be truly effective wherever you are, and saves a ton of headache down the road.\nHere's an example: I invoiced a client before I went out of town, but they sent me an email a few days later and said that they needed me to re-submit it. So instead of having to worry about re-creating an invoice from scratch because my original document was on my iMac back in Winnipeg, I opened the Google Drive app on my phone, found the invoice (I also have all of my invoice templates saved there, just in case) and re-shared it within the span of a few minutes.\nIt saved me a ton of time time and and I was able to avoid the headache and stress of re-creating an invoice to make sure I got paid when I was expecting to.\nThere is literally no excuse for you to not be using a cloud-based sharing service, so get on it!\n5. Report & Tweak\nThough many people are starting to see the value of of it, a lot of people still view content marketing and social media as a wishy-washy thing to spend money on, so us content marketers need to be able to prove our worth.\nThe best way to show value is through reporting - showing successes, areas of improvement, engagement levels, and providing recommendations on how to move forward. It also helps with long-term planning, as reports can indicate shifts in behaviour and engagement over time, which allows you to identify things that succeeded, and things that didn't.\nReporting can be (okay, almost always is) a chore. It's boring, but by taking the time to put together a comprehensive report you can effectively demonstrate your value, as well as open up lines of communication with your clients. Reporting builds trust and helps clients feel like they've got a good grasp of what's happening, even if they're totally hands-off day-to-day.\nDeveloping the right habits from the get-go allows you to not only feel more organized, but it actually makes you better at your job, which is good news for both you and your clients.\nDid I miss anything from this list? Do you have anything you'd like to add? If so, leave a comment, shoot me an email, or tweet at me on Twitter!\nTags: ContentMarketing Advice How-To Marketing\nWhy My Autumn Mantra is \"Less Is More\"\nSeptember 9, 2015 - 11:00am - by Alyson Shane\nIt's been a whirlwind few weeks and somehow a few days ago I woke up and it was already September. How the heck did that happen?! I feel like I blinked and already I'm transitioning to warmer drinks, longer sleeves, and yellowing leaves.\nAnyway, this is generally the time of year when businesses begin to really kick things into high gear - everyone is coming back from the cottage, the lake, or an extended vacation, and are starting to plan the big push for the fall/winter season. With that comes a slew of work, usually in the form of new projects, tasks, meetings, conferences, Skype calls, phone calls, coffee dates, you name it.\nWith all this is can be difficult not to get too caught up in the minutiae of everything. It can be hard not to become overwhelmed, but it can also become increasingly difficult to stay focused and streamlined.\nWhich is why my autumn mantra is \"less is more.\"\nWhat I mean is this: more information doesn't mean better information.\nHowever, when you're a business owner it can be easy to get lost in all the details. You start to feel the need to communicate every thought, idea, brainstorm, detail, etc with everyone involved in your project, which can actually waste time and cause miscommunications, which set you even further back from your original goals.\nThis is because we're often led to believe that including every single detail, or poring over something exhaustively, or even outlining things in crazy detail is the best way to convey what we have to say.\nDon't believe me? Let's debunk a few common misconceptions about communication, shall we?\nFacts are what matter. That the right information stated in a clear and concise manner will get people to act and agree.\nEveryone wants all the details.\nPeople will pay attention because they know that they should. They will read the entirety of your email, pay attention to every detail of your phone call or meeting... you get the idea.\nPeople will take the time to learn something properly.\nIf there's one thing that I've learned in the past while it's that none of these things are true.\nHere's what's actually true:\nPeople make decisions based largely on what they feel, regardless of what the facts are.\nPeople will gloss over details. Be ready (and willing) to repeat them.\nPeople only pay attention to what matters to them. If your email is too long, they'll skim it; if your meeting lasts a while, they won't remember every detail.\nPeople will half-ass most things unless it is required of them.\nThis is in no way a slag against anyone - this is just how we are. We only give 100% of our attention to things that we're emotionally and presently invested in, which usually isn't your email (it's probably what they're doing this weekend, or that funny gif they saw).\nOkay, but why does this matter? I hear you asking.\nIt matters because if you're like me -longwinded, talkative and verbose- you have to work really damn hard to be concise and make sure that you're conveying yourself properly.\nHere are some steps you can take (and that I'm trying to take) to get around these issues:\nSay the important stuff at the beginning of your email. Guys, I struggle with this one so hard, but it's true: put the important stuff at the beginning of your email or it'll never get read.\nSend follow-up emails after a meeting. Sure, you took notes, the other people in attendance took notes... but are they all the same? Do they all outline the same goals, objectives and responsibilities? You have no way of knowing, so send a quick summary email detailing the meeting. That way you can clear up any miscommunications and potentially save yourself some hassle down the line.\nBreak longer emails down into easily readable chunks. If you have to write out a longer email, use bold text to indicate new sections, and try to break things down into lists if possible. If someone opens your email and is greeted with a wall of text they're less likely to spend the time to read the whole thing.\nWhat does this mean for your audience?\nIf we think about our content strategy with the same focus -namely, that people have limited attention spans and only pay attention to things that interest them- we can start to draw some conclusions which we can apply to the kind of information that we share.\nLet's look at a few questions we can ask ourselves:\nWhat can you tell your audience (besides facts) which will mean something to them?\nWhich important details can you focus on to get your point across?\nHow can you share content in an original and engaging way to get people interested?\nHow can you lead people to the same conclusions or end-goals as you?\nBy twisting the perspective around and thinking about how you can share more with less, you begin to ask questions which put you in your audience's shoes (spoiler alert: this helps you be better at what you do!)\nAwesome! Now what?\nNow you can start to apply your new mantra to everything you do! Use the \"less is more\" mantra to send better emails, have less lengthy and time-consuming meetings and follow-ups, and convey yourself better to your colleagues, clients, and your community.\nGot questions? I've got answers! Leave your queries in the comments, tweet at me, or send me an email to continue the conversation!\nTags: Business Advice Entrepreneurship",

The MackGraphe Center, of S\u00e3o Paulo\u2019s Mackenzie University is a facility fully focused on the study of an element that holds the promise of being a key material to fuel the 4th Industrial Revolution.\nGraphene is an extremely thin layer of carbon, stronger than steel but flexible, transparent and highly conductive of electricity. It consists of just one single layer of carbon atoms. It\u2019s such a thin material that it\u2019s not visible to the naked eye. So, researchers at MackGraphe developed this experiment to be able to visualize it.\nThe graphene is attached to a small glass and a light beam is sent through it. Refraction makes it visible at a certain angle. That picture is caught by a camera and sent to a screen. Experts said it could bring a manufacturing revolution in the near future. Researchers want to understand its basic properties and the possibilities for real-world applications.\n\u201cOne very interesting applications are touch screens that are flexible,\u201d said MackGraphe associate professor, Christiano de Matos. \u201cIt is important that we aim so high and that we start early in a technology that is beginning in the world.

        "raw_content": "Incredible real-life story behind Sheila Llewellyn\u2019s brilliant first novel\nWar hero father served in Burma, her work with those traumatised in the Troubles and the support of Booker Prize winner Hilary Mantel...\nAuthor Sheila Llewellyn at Queen\u2019s University, Belfast\nThe Fermanagh woman talks to Laurence White about her unusual childhood, a career that took her all over the world and how at one point she feared the emotional fall-out from her work as a therapist would result in her also needing professional help.\nIn the Imperial War Museum archives lie details of horror mercy killings in the Burmese jungle during the Second World War which involved a Northern Ireland doctor. The medic was a member of the famous Chindit soldiers who fought behind Japanese lines during the conflict and who had to carry out a distressing order when their force was in danger of being overrun.\nThe soldiers could not evacuate some seriously wounded colleagues which left them with a terrifying choice. These men either faced an agonising death from their wounds or torture and then death at the hands of the Japanese forces.\nThe order was given for the doctor, who had been born and educated in Northern Ireland before going to England, to administer morphine to as many of the wounded soldiers as possible and then they were shot by their own side to spare them further suffering.\nA fictionalised account of this event is one of the themes in a novel by Fermanagh author Sheila Llewellyn which will be published this month.\nWalking Wounded draws on extensive research into the causes and treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among war veterans. Set in a military hospital just after the end of the Second World War it also examines what would now be regarded as a barbaric medical practice but which then was regarded as a way of treating psychiatric disorders.\nThe advice often given to authors is to write about what they know and the treatment of PTSD is a speciality which Sheila practiced in Northern Ireland at a renowned trauma centre after moving here in 2003.\nBut it was only when she retired from that post and began seriously considering a career in writing that the idea for the novel began to take shape.\nShe was undertaking a PhD in creative writing and thought about penning a series of short stories charting the development of PTSD treatment from the American Civil War to the modern conflicts of Iraq and Afghanistan.\nAs part of her research she spent some time combing through dusty copies of the Lancet medical journal in Belfast's Royal Victoria Hospital archives and came across a startling discovery - the use of brain surgery to treat PTSD and other psychological conditions.\nKnown as leucotomy, fairly basic tools were used to bore holes in the skull and snip away parts of the brain. Sheila says: \"I was so shocked that someone had suggested that this was a suitable treatment for what we know as PTSD. It just leapt out at me that this was where I needed to put the focus of my writing.\"\nHer novel charts the conflict between those who believe in the surgical intervention and a senior psychiatrist who sees talking therapies as the proper approach.\nShe realised that she must get the medical facts spot on to give validity to her novel but also accepted that she was setting it in a period much different from today.\n\"I had to judge what they did within the ethics of the period. They were not monsters and were convinced that this was a suitable panacea for a psychological disorder. That was what it was like in that period. Otherwise I would have been writing a cast of villains.\"\nIt was not only her latter day work that informed her choice of theme, but also her father Herbert's experience in those same Burmese jungles. He had fought there - although not with the Chindits - and had sent home letters and journals from the front line, although most of those were of a strictly personal nature.\nShe recalls: \"Time and time again, the soldiers fighting in the jungles had to make horrendous choices leaving wounded colleagues behind. That was something my father never talked about.\n\"In one of the very last conversations I had with him we were talking about his life in general. He said to me that I could never imagine the horrors of that war in Burma and what the soldiers went through.\"\nIn her book she uses an unusual metaphor based on fact to convey how those horrors left so many unable to talk about the war when they came home. Before the soldiers set off to go behind enemy lines the voice boxes of the mules they used to carry equipment were cut to prevent them braying and alerting the Japanese to their presence.\nSheila, now aged 69, had an unusual upbringing. When her father returned from the war he began working for a major construction company and subsequently moved to what was then British Guiana on the northern coast of South America, taking Sheila with him.\nHis job was to build homes for the staff of a French-Canadian company involved in bauxite mining on the banks of the Demerara River. Sheila lived there from the age of eight to 11 and for the first year had no school to attend. She had books sent out to her from London and also developed a voracious appetite for reading, spending hours in the camp library.\nAfter four years, her father moved to Barbados, founded his own building firm and died there in 1969. She had returned to England, where she was born, to live with an aunt and uncle - a very different couple from her father. Her uncle was a committed socialist and wanted her to study in Moscow. Her father's wish was for her to go to Oxford, something she was to do many years later.\nBut her initial university studies were in Manchester, a city she loved, and where she met her husband, Ken Dennison, an engineering student from Enniskillen. \"In 1968, I came to Northern Ireland to meet his friends and family and we got married that year.\"\nAfter their studies they went to Africa and it was the beginning of a somewhat unconventional marriage. \"We had no children and both of us wanted interesting jobs. Both of us got contracts in various parts of the world which meant spending periods of time apart, but it sort of worked. After all, next year we will celebrate 50 years of married life.\n\"Although we had not returned to Northern Ireland, we felt emotionally connected to it and wherever we were in the world we kept abreast of what was happening here,\" she says.\nHer quest for an interesting career took her all over the world. One of her first jobs abroad was to Iran to teach English to professionals like doctors and engineers.\n\"This was in November 1978 just as the revolution against the Shah had begun. I was supposed to be there for six months but only spent around half that time.\n\"I was in Tabriz in the north of the country which was quite Russian in outlook, with many of the revolutionaries Marxist. I was able to move about quite freely. Many of the professors in the university were leaving and the students were on strike. They used to hiss at any Americans they met - it was their way of showing displeasure.\n\"At one stage the British consul had to return to the UK and he said I could stay in the consulate until he returned. It was a bit surreal as there was only me and a nightwatchman in the building. That was the only time I felt a bit exposed. I had to be careful as there was an unofficial curfew and a dead body was found near the consulate at one stage.\"\nOther jobs took her to Zambia, Singapore and east Germany but she still found time to further her education - indeed she has amassed an astonishing six degrees including a PhD. She was a manager in British Gas providing training for workers in the oil industry but it was her decision to take a psychology degree with the Open University which changed her life.\nOn graduation in 1995 she began work as a therapist at Macclesfield Hospital helping people suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, including families bereaved by vicious drug gangs and soldiers who had been on NATO duty during the war in the Balkans.\nSheila decided to develop her expertise and then fulfilled her father's wish to see her study at Oxford, where she undertook a post-graduate diploma specialising in PTSD. She recalls how one of the tutors had been working with soldiers who had fought in Vietnam and, like the Burmese soldiers all those years before, had witnessed badly wounded colleagues being shot rather than left to fall into enemy hands.\n\"That course was a formative moment in my life. I found it very satisfying to work in that area of therapy, trying to get people to assimilate what had happened to them and how to live with it,\" she adds. When her husband took early retirement, the couple decided to move to Enniskillen and Sheila began work at the Centre for Trauma and Transformation in Omagh where she came in contact with not only survivors of the Omagh bombing and those bereaved by it, but also others suffering psychological damage from other parts of Northern Ireland and even the Republic of Ireland.\nPart of her work was training nurses in cognitive behavioural therapy in an EU-funded project which spanned the border. \"That was an amazing induction to Northern Ireland for me, a really interesting and satisfying job and now with Brexit it shows why we need to keep the border porous.\"\nShe says that civilians, like those caught up in the events of the Troubles, have different problems to deal with compared to soldiers. \"The soldiers coming back from war suffering from PTSD have to deal with it, but not in the theatre of conflict where the events which triggered it happened. The civilians we deal with in Northern Ireland were living in the area where the event occurred and where, they believed, those who had caused them to be bereaved or who had injured them still lived. They are dealing with abnormal things which have become normal because they have lasted so long.\"\nSheila admits that dealing with traumatised people is also difficult for the therapists. \"I remember I used to go swimming after work and would find myself mulling over what I had listened to during therapy sessions and thinking that I might end up on my own waiting list.\n\"However, Omagh was a very professional place to work and we were supervised and could talk through any problems with superiors. That was not seen as a sign of weakness but instead was built into the professional activity of the therapists.\n\"Therapy can be a Catch 22 situation. If you become immune to what people are telling you at clinics then it is time to give up that work as you are not processing what they are going through. However, if you show too much empathy then that is damaging to you as a therapist. I don't think I ever got to that stage and I really miss that work.\"\nShe had one burning unfulfilled ambition, however - to write. And it was regular Belfast Telegraph contributor Malachi O'Doherty who helped her on that road.\n\"I really didn't know how to get involved. I went to Queen's University and met Malachi at an open memoir class he was taking. He introduced me to the weekly writers' group run by Ciaran Carson and one of the first people I met was award-winning poet Sinead Morrissey. I don't think I would ever have become a writer had I not come to Northern Ireland. It was the right time for me but there is great support here and people are so generous with their time and willing to help you.\n\"The more I write - and I write every day - the more I want to and I have never stopped for the last five or six years.\"\nAnd it is writing which has been widely acclaimed. Although Walking Wounded is her debut novel, she won the P J O\u2019Connor RTE Radio One Drama Award and the Silver Award for the Best Broadcast Radio Drama in the New York International Radio Drama Festival in 2012.\nShe has also been shortlisted for the Bridport Short Story prize, the Sean O Faolain Short Story prize and shortlisted twice for the Costa Short Story award.\nShe has received support from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, and one high-profile fan is two-time Booker Prize winner Hilary Mantel who took a special interest in this novel and sent it to her agent who had suggested some changes.\nTo Sheila\u2019s delight it was picked up rapidly by Sceptre, an imprint of Hodder & Stoughton, news which the author heard on the night that Donald Trump was elected president of the US.\nIt seems that momentous and unexpected events follow Sheila wherever she goes.\nWalking Wounded by Sheila Llewellyn is published by Sceptre, Price \u00a316.99. It will go on sale on January 25\nSheila's father Herbert with a stuffed cayman that he killed a few days before\nSheila and her father",

Famous pieces from composers including Haydn, Berlioz, Tchaikovsky and Copland would not have been created if it were not for those committed to produce new music. Over a decade ago, a group of enthusiastic ASO patrons decided to take part in the tradition of nurtuing the cultural treasure of symphonic music by creating the Musica Nova commissioning club.\nMusica Nova has taken on the responsibility of adding new works to the Anchorage Symphony Orchestra\u2019s repertoire, and in turn the rest of the symphonic world. Some of these pieces over the past fourteen years have been performed at Carnegie Hall, by various orchestras across the country, and one was the beginnings for a new work that won a Pulitzer, John Luther Adams\u2019 \u201cDark Waves\u201d in 2007.\nFor the 2018/2019 season Musica Nova has commissioned Mateo Messina to compose a piece fitting for the people of Alaska. Best known for his film and TV compositions including a Grammy win for Juno in 2008, Messina\u2019s distinct, moving and sometimes quirky musical voice has delighted audiences of the screen as well as in the concert hall. When not writing for the screen, Mateo has also written over 20 symphonies, with each premiere being a benefit concert for the families at Seattle Children\u2019s Hospital raising over $2,000,000 to date.\nYou can now sign up for 2018/19 Musica Nova.\n\u2022 Private dinner with composer Mateo Messina, Maestro Randy Fleischer and other\nMusica Nova members (date and location TBA)\n\u2022 Invitation to a rehearsal\n\u2022 Premiere reception attended by Mateo Messina on January 26\n\u2022 Plaque and signed copy of a page from the score\n\u2022 Recording of the Premiere Performance of Messina\u2019s piece.\nCost is $500 per person.

        "raw_content": "Explaining how to do things is very hard. You already know how to do X. Bob has never done X before. He has never even seen X being done before. And you need to teach him how to do X. If X is hard, then explaining how to do X is even harder. Why? First off, communication is hard in general. But here it\u2019s even worse. You need to essentially boil down X into spoken (or written) words, and then Bob needs to convert the words back into X. Converting X into words is hard enough, but you need to do the conversion in such a way that Bob can easily recreate X based on your words. Now, what good would this article be without an example? Imagine teaching chess or checkers to someone without having a gameboard and pieces in front of you. You may be able to come up with the clearest and most enlightening instructions, but would you honestly expect the student to be able to play the game? You obviously need to show example moves and gameplay. It\u2019s no different when teaching tech, or anything else for that matter. A lesson is never complete without an example. Pure explanation is never sufficient alone. Even when you think it is. An example has a way of bringing a lesson home that words alone simply cannot do. With words alone, there is always a conversion of thought-to-words (and vice versa) that is fraught with misunderstanding and ambiguity. Indeed, in many cases, all you need is an example. A good example can often get the point across without requiring any additional explanation. I think everyone appreciates a good example. We\u2019ve all experienced the clarity that an example provides when trying to learn something new. Then why is it that so much instruction is given without examples? I find so often that teachers and speakers drone on and on with concept and theory and often provide few or no examples. Why is that, if the value of examples is so obvious? I\u2019m going to give the benefit of the doubt and rule out laziness as being a factor here (although it probably is in some cases). There\u2019s another issue at play: It\u2019s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that a concept is so clear that it needs no example, and that\u2019s because the concept is already crystal clear to the speaker. But teachers need to keep in mind that it\u2019s axiomatic that the student will not have the same grasp of the concept as the teacher (initially, anyway). And that\u2019s why a teacher always needs to provide examples. If you don\u2019t think an example is necessary, give an example anyway. Just remember: AGE. Always Give Examples. Your students will thank you.",

The skeletons have been carefully excavated on site under a special Home Office licence. Radio Carbon dating has shown that two of the burials discovered date from the 7th century. There will be further scientific research to reveal more about the people who were buried here.\nMost of the bodies are lying east-west, with the head at the western end of the grave, which suggests that this was a Christian cemetery. There were family groups buried together, and separate, lone individuals.\nHow long will further scientific research on the skeletons take once the excavation is complete?\nThe excavation finished in spring 2015. The research on the remains will be a delicate process that could take several years, so at this stage it is hard to say how long this will be.\nWhat will happen to the skeletons then?\nThe South West Heritage Trust will curate the remains in line with the \u2018Policy for the Care of Human Remains 2011\u2019. By sticking to this policy, SWHT will ensure it is collecting, researching and curating human remains in a way that treats them with the greatest respect and care and maximises their research and educational use.\nWhat will scientific research on the remains hope to uncover?\nThere will be detailed analysis of the skeletal remains which can show evidence of disease or injury. It will also reveal whether any of them are linked as family groups, what their diet was like, where they came from and lived.\nThis will enable us to piece together lots of individual stories about how people lived, died and were buried. We think there are several periods here in this one burial ground, because there are phases to the yard. The yard measures around 100m x 100m.\nCotswold Archaeology team on the cemetery site.

It is easy for me to fall into the trap of impatient tones, harsh words, and anger as I deal, day to day, with my children. Would I respond the same if I knew that I had only a short time left with that child? Or would I work hard to handle the situation with gentleness, love, and patience?\nSurely, each day, the Lord would have me recognize the value and preciousness of the children He has given to me. I do not want to take them for granted. Despite the fact that I have a responsibility to train my children, which involves some discipline, my home should be as filled with smiles, encouragement, praise, security, and love as it would be if I knew I were spending the last few hours with my child. Even when discipline is necessary, it can be done with a quiet spirit and attitude, which will be much more effective than harshness or anger.\nSometimes I get so focused on the goals of the day and what needs to be accomplished that those God has placed me in the home to serve become no longer my ministry, but an interference. They have to be worked around so I can get done what I want to get done. I pray that as my heart has been touched by Tim and his family, God can keep my eyes on the children He has given me to minister to. Then I will interact with each one as an individual with needs that God has enabled me to help meet.\nWendy has shared with our homeschool group what homeschooling has meant to her these past two years. It gave her valuable time with a precious son. When she started homeschooling, she didn\u2019t know how little time she had left with Tim. I hope that each of us will also value the time God has given us with our children in this endeavor of homeschooling. May the educating not become so big that we lose the opportunity to cherish each precious child.",

Created by writer-editor Stan Lee and writer-artist Steve Ditko, he first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15 (August 1962).\nAn orphan, Peter Parker was raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. In an unusual accident, he was bitten by a spider that was supercharged with unusual energy. This led to a transfer of spider-like abilities and qualities which prompted Peter to become a superhero. Forever led by his uncle's last words to him: \"With great power comes great responsibility\", Peter, as Spiderman, shoulders the burden of patrolling New York and fighting crime whereever it appears. This proves more difficult than he imagines as his life and responsibility as a costumed crimefighter conflicts with his life as a student and, later, mild-mannered adult.\nSpider-Man's powers include super strength and agility, the ability to cling to most surfaces, shoot spider-webs using devices of his own invention which he called \"web-shooters\", and the ability to react to danger quickly with his \"spider-sense\", enabling him to combat his foes.\nRead More about Spider-Man",

She originally studied both the cello and musicology, but once her singing voice was discovered she put the cello aside and studied voice in earnest.\nInterestingly, the liner notes indicate that this album came to be from her desire to record the role of Lakm\u00e9. Why Erato did not allow her to do so is beyond me, because the three excerpts contained herein reveal her to be possibly the best-suited voice for this role since Mady Mespl\u00e9 recorded it way back in the 1970s. This is not to say that Devieilhe\u2019s voice is like Mespl\u00e9\u2019s because it is not. Where Mespl\u00e9 was heady and vibrant, Devieilhe has a very smooth tone production, almost creamy, all the way up through her highest notes, but they share an inner enthusiasm for the role that is exactly what is needed to put it over for the public.\nBut creaminess of tone is not all that Devieilhe has to offer. She also has a fully integrated technique, one in which all the little niceties of coloratura singing\u2014trills, mordents, grace notes and the like\u2014just roll out of her like natural speaking. Like her Australian-born counterpart Danielle de Niese, Devieilhe also has an enthusiasm when singing that is infectious, and this, too, is a necessary ingredient for Lakm\u00e9. But I was also very impressed by her ability, very rare even for some of the finest rivals in her voice range, to sustain great breath control, which allows her to go up into the stratosphere without a break for breath. In addition to all this, look who her accompanist is: the great conductor Fran\u00e7ois Xavier Roth, whose recordings of the orchestral repertoire have garnered critical acclaim around the world.\nSo why didn\u2019t Erato just let her record a complete Lakm\u00e9? You got me. I\u2019m stumped. All they needed was a tenor like Spyres or Calleja, a good mezzo (Marianne Crebassa, who sings the flower duet here, is certainly good enough) and bass (perhaps a little rarer, but Nikalantha isn\u2019t that difficult to sing) and boom, we\u2019d have a first-rate Lakm\u00e9 to treasure forever.\nWell, at least we have this recital, and it\u2019s certainly good enough to whet your appetite. Judging from this recital, Devieilhe isn\u2019t quite as detailed an interpreter as de Niese, but de Niese her diction is flawless and, being French, perfectly idiomatic. Interestingly, I also hear in some of her range the kind of sweetness that Mado Robin possessed, and Robin, too, was a first-rate Lakm\u00e9 (just don\u2019t expect Devieilhe to sing the B above high C, as Robin could).\nI have to admit that the 4 Hindu Poems of Maurice Delage were entirely new to me. Delage (1879-1961) was a contemporary of Ravel and Milhaud but neither as impressionistic as the first or as harmonically daring as the second. His music has some of the touches of the Impressionist school but, at least in these songs, more tonal and less amorphic harmonically. Nonetheless, the songs are well written and Devieilhe sings them with creamy ease. Oddly, much the same things can be said of Debussy\u2019s La Romance d\u2019Ariel, a pleasant song but scarcely one of his best or most memorable. Again, Devieilhe sings it beautifully.\nYet perhaps the greatest performance on this disc is her version of the aria from Stravinsky\u2019s Le Rossignol. She sings it better than anyone I\u2019ve ever heard, including Reri Grist on Stravinsky\u2019s own excellent recording of the complete opera\u2014and it is by no means easy. Devieilhe\u2019s unique ability to keep her high range creamy and perfectly centered is exactly what this music needs, and here, for once, it gets it.\nI personally questioned the inclusion of the complete \u201cmad scene\u201d from Thomas\u2019 Hamlet, surely one of the most sugary and least dramatic settings of Shakespeare known to mankind. Yes, it\u2019s a vocal showpiece and yes, Devieilhe sings it perfectly, but \u201cCamptown Races\u201d with runs and trills would have had as much musical value (plus, it has \u201cDoo-dahs.\u201d Does Thomas\u2019 music have doo-dahs? Does it?). Ophelia sounds about as \u201cmad\u201d as Katie Couric with a hangnail, and it goes on and on for almost 12 minutes. Not enough time to vaccum the house, but more than is needed to clean the cat\u2019s litter pan. Berlioz\u2019 setting of the Death of Ophelia, also lyrical, is more interesting music although I don\u2019t think much of its dramatic value, either. The duet from Tha\u00efs is slightly better music, and soprano Jodie Devos joins Devieilhe and Crebassa here to give a first-rate performance, helped along by Roth\u2019s lyrical yet taut conducting.\nKoechlin\u2019s setting of Le voyage is typical of his genius: melodic but not predictable, the tonal melody set to floating, bitonal piano accompaniment. Along with the arias from Pell\u00e9as and Rossignol, it is surely one of the highlights of the album.\nWe end our journey with yet another Lakm\u00e9 excerpt, the arietta \u201cTu m\u2019ai donn\u00e9 le plus doux rave,\u201d which of course is right up Devieilhe\u2019s alley. A beautiful and at times interesting journey, worth exploring with her.\nLeistner-Mayer\u2019s Psychotropic Quartets\nLEISTNER-MAYER: String Quartets Nos. 5-7 / Sojka Quartet / Tyxart 17090\nYou never know where startling new music is going to come from. Here\u2019s a Bohemian composer with a very British-sounding name, Roland Leistner-Mayer, whose string quartets sound like nothing you\u2019ve ever heard before in your life.\nLeistner-Mayer, born in 1945, studied composition with Harald Genzmer and G\u00fcnter Bialas at the Staatliche Hochschule f\u00fcr Musik in Munich. Among his awards won is a distinction in the Alfredo Casella 1970 competition and third prize in the 1996 Swiss International Competition for Composition. Yet he distinced himself early on, say the liner notes, \u201cfrom fashionable trends and avant-garde experimentation in favor of a forceful, expressive and authentic diction. Form is for him the result rather than the means of expression\u2026From the time of his early string quartets (Nos. 2 and 3) on, he has occasionally moved towards a Bohemian idiom, similar to Leo\u0161 Jan\u00e1\u010dek, audible in the rhapsodic themes, eruptive expansion of form, and a tendency to the \u2018informal\u2019 which are the main features of his music.\u201d\nAll of which sounds very nice, but none of which actually describes the strangeness of his aesthetic. Listening to the Fifth Quartet\u2019s opening movement, for instance, one is immediately struck by the odd fluttering of the violins, following which the viola and cello play an overlying modal theme; a few bars in, and the fluttering figures seem fair to overwhelm the ongoing musical discourse, although the broader theme keeps trying to break into the conversation. This is truly bizarre, mind-altering music, and even when the fluttering figures dissipate and the broad theme is developed, Leistner-Mayer introduces a pungent, stabbing figure played in a downward plunge by the violins, which suddenly drag the music into strange harmonic territory filled with angst and passion. This is absolutely extraordinary music; I haven\u2019t heard its like anywhere. It then turns out that the stabbing figure is itself developed, with the volume and intensity somewhat ameliorated by a theme in the minor that tries to assert itself and fails. This music speaks of a great internal struggle, a struggle of both mind and spirit (jeez, I\u2019m starting to sound like WGUC now!), which ends abruptly. But the second-movement \u201cScherzo\u201d is no less intense, no less intricately constructed or moving, the key continually shifting from within the chord positions as the music moves along. A strange pizzicato passage is heard in the middle, followed by a broad theme played on the viola against it. Half the quartet then plays tremolos while the other half (cello and one of the violins) continue to develop the music above it. Yes, there is a certain kinship here to Jan\u00e1\u010dek\u2019s quartets, but not as close as the liner notes would have you believe. This music is really \u201cout there,\u201d so speak, pushing the envelope in a strange but wonderful way.\nEven the slow movement has its quirks. Ostensibly in D minor (or D modal, take your pick), the constant fluidity of the harmony keeps shifting us up and down chromatically as well as shifting us into other keys, including one or two notes in the relative major. In this way, Leistner-Mayer writes music that by definition is \u201ctonal\u201d while in fact it is constantly in a state of flux. The strange passage in this movement beginning at 5:58 is a perfect case in point. The last movement, marked \u201cPoco vivace,\u201d begins as a fairly conventional-sounding piece, but 37 seconds in and it\u2019s already shifting and morphing into something more complex and startling. Nonetheless, this movement, at least, follows a fairly recognizable rhythmic pattern (mostly in 6/8) and so is easier for untrained ears to follow. It\u2019s also not nearly as complex harmonically as the preceding three movements.\nMy general impression of Leistner-Mayer\u2019s music is that it is comprised of musical labyrinths. He seems to run into walls or traps he can\u2019t get out of, yet somehow, miraculously, finds an alternate escape route and takes it, only to find himself in another trap, find another escape route, etc. on through to the end of the piece. Music critic Christoph Sch\u00fcren is quoted in the booklet as saying that \u201cThe great inner complexity of the artistic experience does not have to result in greater structural complexity. Quite the opposite: Roland Leistner-Mayer has searched unwaveringly for the simplest and most direct expression of the internal necessities.\u201d Again, the liner notes are misleading. True, this music isn\u2019t nearly as dense as the tangled scores of a Ligeti, Crumb or Penderecki, but \u201ccomplexity\u201d isn\u2019t always measured by how many notes you throw in or how dense the musical texture is. Complexity can also come from structurally \u201csimple\u201d building blocks. The music of Thelonious Monk, for instance, is structurally simple compared to most contemporary classical music, yet it is extremely difficult to play properly because the rhythm is continualy broken up by stiffish figures that alternate with the swing, and the harmonic progression often moves from simple to complex in the blink of an eye. Similar things may be said for Leistner-Mayer\u2019s scores.\nIn the Sixth Quartet, subtitled Seven Unbrave Bagatelles, Leistner-Mayer assumes a similar pattern, creating swirling figures in G minor that take unexpected detours into dark emotional territory. The modus operandi is the same, but the result is oddly different. This first movement, by the way, is only 2:33 long; Leistner-Mayer doesn\u2019t believe in long-winded diatribes but, rather, says what he has to say and then moves on. Although his music has a somewhat more conventional form in regards to rhythm and pacing, I felt that it also had a certain kinship to the music of Leif Segerstam. This is particularly true of the second movement here, marked \u201cHinter dem Fenster, \u2018Behind the Window,\u2019 Allegro moderato,\u201d in which the string tremolos become part and parcel of the development. The third movement, titled \u201cView of the Mountain,\u201d is absolutely terrifying; perhaps Leistner-Mayer was on the verge of falling off a cliff! The composer describes this quartet as not standing up to ignorance and insecurity, but rather of \u201crepression and pushing aside of these questions into the prison of Time.\u201d Thus each of these musical vignettes are meant to represent someone fleeing danger and allowing fear to override reason. Needless to say, most of this music represents stark, blind terror. Only the slow fifth movement, \u201cRicordanza: Larghetto,\u201d escapes this mood, presenting us with a remarkably soothing melody in B-flat, albeit with his usual excursions into neighboring keys, including A minor. The sixth movement, \u201cGlimpse through the gateway,\u201d begins with almost humorous upward glissandi that eventually give way to a mysterious theme that keeps breaking up and shifting themes around. In the last movement, \u201cPassare in\u2026Arioso allotanandosi,\u201d we hear a nice relaxed fugue, \u201cunbrave\u201d perhaps yet with deep feeling and sensitivity.\nThe Seventh Quartet, like the fifth, has no program. Subtitled the \u201cAndante Quartet,\u201d it is clearly the most lyrical of the three and the one least involved in angst. Indeed, the first movement in G-flat major is so relaxed that when the fast, edgier passage comes around just before the three-minute mark, it almost takes us by surprise. Yes, it\u2019s still emotional but there\u2019s a bit less of an edge to the music. It\u2019s not as hair-raising or existential as the outbursts in the previous two quartets, although it does play a major role in the development section. Eventually the lyrical theme returns, infused at times by more tremolos, leading to a quiet conclusion. The second movement does indeed have more of an edge to it, as one would expect\u2014apparently, Leistner-Mayer doesn\u2019t believe in \u201cjolly\u201d scherzi\u2014but there\u2019s not quite as much angst as in the Fifth Quartet, and the secondary theme is actually quite pleasant (although brief). The slow third movement, in G-flat minor, begins with four broad quarter notes played by the strings in an almost marcia funebre movement. This leads in turn to another lyrical but somewhat obscure melody, with the funeral march feeling coming and going as it progresses. The slow development of the themes and their great solemnity also contribute to this feeling. Part of the development also includes a very lyrical cello passage beginning at 6:18. The last movement, \u201cPresto precipitando,\u201d tries to recapture some of the angst found in the previous two quartets, but is again tempered by greater lyricism. Perhaps we should call it quasi-angst.\nIn all this music, the Sojka Quartet is right on the mark in terms of both technical security and emotional commitment. They have apparently had a good relationship with the composer, and in fact premiered the Seventh Quartet in Pilsen on February 23 of this year. This is a great CD; you need to hear it!\nThe Pavel Haas Quartet\u2019s Electrifying Dvo\u0159\u00e1k\nDVO\u0158\u00c1K: Piano Quintet in A, Op. 81.* String Quintet in E-flat, Op. 97+ / Pavel Haas Quartet; *Boris Gilburg, pn; +Pavel Niki, vla / Supraphon SU4195-2\nOver the last two decades or so, Felix Mendelssohn and Antonin Dvo\u0159\u00e1k have slowly become among my favorite composers, but in the latter\u2019s case I\u2019ve found some music in his output (like most of his string quartets except the \u201cAmerican\u201d) that I find lacking in drama and substance. Happily, these two quintets are among his finest compositions.\nIndeed, the first movement of the former is almost a mini-drama in itself, vacillating as it does between a dreamy, lyrical melody that sounds suspiciously like Richard Strauss\u2019 Wiegenlied (although, since Strauss\u2019 song came later, he was the one doing the copying) and intensely dramatic passages in the minor. The Haas quartet, with guest Boris Gilburg on piano, play this with a perfect sense of the duality of the music and a wonderfully intense attack. At the 8:30 mark, the lyrical theme is suddenly heard in the minor, which completely changes its effect on the listener, and it doesn\u2019t last long before the drama picks up again. The way the musicians explode in these dramatic sections is absolutely breathtaking; the underlying motor rhythms taking on a life of their own, driving the music forward explosively. If the first movement sounds like Wiegenlied, the second (\u201cDumka\u201d) reminded me of Eden Ahbez\u2019s classic pop tune Nature Boy. It\u2019s an almost sad-sounding piece, and the quartet\u2019s treatment of it is sensitive and well-shaded. Once again there is an alternate theme at a quicker tempo, but here it is not quite as fast or quite as dramatic in scope. There\u2019s a remarkable passage where Dvo\u0159\u00e1k changes the key three times in the course of two bars. The one real emotional outburst occurs at the 7:15 mark, the music literally exploding with passion. By contrast, the third-movement \u201cScherzo (furiant)\u201d is jolly and stress-free, despite vacillating between the major and minor. The last movement, though ostensibly in the home key of A major, vacillates harmonically in a quite startling fashion. Here the good vibes of the third movement are combined with some minor-key drama, though never quite as angst-filled as the first two movements.\nThe string quintet also sets a mood that seems to be quite placid but bursts forth emotionally as it goes along. This music, however, sounded much more Czech in character to me than that of the piano quintet, which seemed built around Germanic ideas. Here, too, Dvo\u0159\u00e1k integrates the outbursts into the fabric of the music more completely, making them sound (as they are) logical in their progression and development. Bits of the music here put me in mind of the \u201cNew World\u201d Symphony without ever really quoting it. The long central development section, starting around 4:50, was particularly well-thought-out and interesting. In this piece, too, Dvo\u0159\u00e1k\u2019s writing seemed to me much more \u201corchestral\u201d in its voicing; he seldom plays the violins against the violas or cello, or the two violins against each other. In this respect only the work is similar to the great Schubert string quintet in C. Because of this, it was more difficult for me to gauge the playing of guest violist Pavel Niki since he blended right in with the quartet.\nI found the second movement pleasant and lyrical without being particularly inventive. Here, Dvo\u0159\u00e1k seemed to be content to fall back on prior forms, although the music was well written and did not merely \u201ccoast.\u201d The third-movement \u201cLarghetto,\u201d set in B major, is more interesting, falling through a harmonic trap into A-flat major for the secondary theme. Again, Dvo\u0159\u00e1k shifts gears rhythmically, giving us a peppy alternate theme; then, when he returns to the slow theme for the variations, he employs a number of striking devices, among them a vacillation between major and the minor as well as rapid sixteenths played by the cello with the edge of the bow. We arrive at A minor for yet another variation on the theme, then somehow find ourselves in A-flat minor once again. The most violent emotional outburst, however, occurs at 8:45, after a pause that almost sounds like the end of the movement. It goes on from there, easing up on the tension while developing the theme once again. The final movement, back in the home key of E-flat, also shifts harmonic gears frequently, this time evoking drama with a sudden shift to G minor. The music gains interest from the very creative ideas that Dvo\u0159\u00e1k throws in as it goes along, somehow tying them all together neatly when they could have ended up as disparate elements in the movement. Edgy string tremolos enter the picture, ramping up the energy of the movement, gradually, to an almost fever pitch.\nThe only comparison I can make, since they are the only other performances I\u2019ve heard, are to the Vlach Quartet Prague in the string quartet and to both the Vlach Quartet and Arthur Rubinstein with the Guarneri Quartet in the Piano Quintet. Vlach surprisingly underplays this music, making little of both the lyrical themes and the more dramatic moments; what sounds elegant and then explosive in Pavel Haas\u2019 reading sounds tame and mild here. The Guarneti Quartet sounds lame and klunky in the lyrical theme, and also too reticent to cut loose in the dramatic moments\u2026but then again, I\u2019ve always hated Guarneri\u2019s sound (muddy and indistinct) and style (lacking both rhythmic bounce and a sense of forward momentum) in everything they ever recorded (particularly their miserable set of the Beethoven Quartets), so that\u2019s not too surprising for me.\nThese are clearly the preferred performances of these works for me.\nAll Hail Hailstork\u2019s String Quartets\nHAILSTORK: 3 Spirituals: We Shall Overcome; Kum Bah Yah; Great Day. Eslanda Dances. String Quartet No. 2, Variations on \u201cSwing Low, Sweet Chariot.\u201d String Quartet No. 3. String Quartet No. 1: II. Adagio / Ambrosia Quartet / Albany TROY1680\nI\u2019m always open to new music I haven\u2019t heard before by Adolphus Hailstork, since everything I\u2019ve heard to date has been first-rate. This new album encompasses much of his music for string quartet, played by the Ambrosia Quartet from Virginia. Formed in 2002, all the musicians are members of the Virginia Symphony Orchestra.\nMost of this disc consists of Hailstork\u2019s settings of spirituals. The first three, fairly brief, are developed in traditional classic style, i.e. the opening melody of We Shall Overcome is followed by a fantasia in triplets played by one of the violins \u00e0 la Bach while cello plays pizzicato notes on beats 1 and 3 and the other two strings play around it. The effect is mesmerizing, not at all what one might expect when it begins. By contrast, Kum Bah Yah is a slow, beautiful canon in which he uses Gospel harmonies while Great Day, with its strong rhythm (almost like a cakewalk) features a syncopated figure played by the viola and second violin around which the first violin and cello play exuberant variations.\nThe Eslanda Dances were composed as a tribute to Paul Robeson\u2019s wife, Eslanda \u201cEssie\u201d Cardozo Robeson, an anthropologist who saw many exotic tribal folk dances. The music here, though original and written in a simple style to reflect what she might have heard, is developed in a quite sophisticated manner. Interestingly, I found the music much closer related to American folk dances than those in foreign countries, but once again the music is developed with rigorous attention to form and detail. The third dance, marked \u201cAdagietto,\u201d is particularly interesting and the least American-like of the group, using some surprisingly advanced harmonic movement and an unusual rhythmic figure played throughout by the viola. Gospel harmony is evoked once again in the final \u201cAdagietto.\u201d\nThe String Quartet No. 2, based on Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, is undoubtedly the most complex of all his spiritual pieces on this CD. Hailstork pulls out all the stops here, literally (in the playing of the strings) and figuratively, turning the simple tune into something quite complex. In his very brief comments on this piece, Hailstork writes that the theme is \u201cinterrupted by abrupt dissonant chords that serve as \u2018fate motifs\u2019 to remind the listener that the \u2018carry me home\u2019 in the spiritual text is an end of life request.\u201d What continually amazes me with Hailstork\u2019s music is how the formal devices never sound cluttered or affected, as if he is just trying to impress the listener with cleverness. All of it comes from the heart, and I daresay that if you were to start playing this music after the theme is stated you might not even realize for some time what piece it is based on. The development section becomes quite involved as the piece goes on, ending with a quiet resolution representing acceptance.\nThe most substantial work on the CD is the three-movement String Quartet No. 3. Here the spiritual allusion does not appear until the last movement, which is based on There is a Balm in Gilead, yet even in the first movement, marked \u201cModerato sostenuto,\u201d Hailstork\u2019s original theme has certain spiritual-like qualities. This movement, very slowly and elegantly developed, is less technical and more mood-oriented than most of the other music on this disc. The lively second movement has a strong, dance-like beat, but is in an irregular meter (it sounds to me like 7/8, 6/8 with an extra beat at the end of each bar) which makes it more for listening than dancing. Throughout all of this music, the Ambrosia Quartet plays with great style and lively energy, and this shows particularly in movements like this. Typically of Hailstork, the last movement does a good job of concealing the original theme somewhat, swathed as it is in interesting chord positions and diverse meters.\nThe quartet chose to include only the second movement of Hailstork\u2019s String Quartet No. 1. It\u2019s a lovely \u201cAdagio,\u201d but I would have liked to have heard the entire piece. Nonetheless, the heartfelt performance given here makes a fine close to a disc devoted to Hailstork\u2019s chamber works.\nQuattro Mani Play Re-Structures\nRE-STRUCTURES / LANSKY: Out of the Blue. RUDERS: Cembalo d\u2019Amore (Second Book).1 MACHOVER: Re-Structures. KURT\u00c1G: \u00c9let\u00fat Lebenslaud, Op. 32.2 BEN-AMOTS: Tango for the Road / Quattro Mani: Steven Beck, pn/1hpd/2quarter-tone pn; Susan Grace, pn/2quarter-tone pn; 2Andy Stevens, Sergei Vassiliev, basset hn / Bridge 9496\nI think that, by now, my regular readers know that I\u2019m generally allergic to duo-piano recordings as a rule. Too often I find them uninteresting, particularly when they play Romantic repertoire. Just about the only regular working duo that I really enjoyed over the years was that of Anthony Goldstone and Caroline Clemmow, which sadly came to an end this January when Goldstone died. But Quattro Mani has slowly worked their way into my favor, not just because they\u2019re such good musicians but also because they play an adventurous repertoire.\nThis CD is no exception. The only two composers whose names I recognized on the CD inlay were that of Gy\u00f6rgy Kurt\u00e1g and Ofer Ben-Amots, both of whose music I\u2019ve generally liked, but I\u2019m always open to musical adventures and I generally trust Quattro Mani\u2019s taste.\nWe start this latest adventure with Paul Lansky\u2019s Out of the Blue for two pianos, described by the composer as \u201cpart of a kind of musical chain letter. It\u2019s based on the fourth movement of his horn trio, Etudes and Parodies, which was in turn inspired by Kopprasch\u2019s exercises for horn and Ligeti\u2019s piano prelude Fanfares. I found the music a bit in the minimalist vein, at least in terms of the continual, unvarying rhythm, but Lansky keeps the melodic line moving and introduces odd \u201cclose chords\u201d within the piece to keep up interest.\nBut if you think Out of the Blue is strange, wait \u2018til you hear Paul Ruders\u2019 Cembalo d\u2019Amore for harpsichord and piano! This is not one of the selections on which Susan Grace plays a quarter-tone piano, but you\u2019d almost swear it was using quarter tones. The music never really settles into any firm tonality in any of its eight movements. I found the music endlessly fascinating, a sort of perpetuum mobile in which the deconstruction of the harmony actually \u201cleads\u201d the music melodically. The slow movement is one of the most interesting since it shows how Ruders put this music together, almost in slow motion. Ruders has created brief scalar movements that almost move like clockwork.\nUnfortunately, I couldn\u2019t make heads or tails out of Tod Machover\u2019s Re-Structures for two pianos and live electronics. The music alternates between crushed chords and splatterings of notes that didn\u2019t strike me as very coherent, so I will pass on to the next work.\nThis was Kurt\u00e1g\u2019s \u00c9let\u00fat Lebenslaud which, though very dense (both Beck and Grace play quarter-tone pianos here, and the two basset horns slighter through pitches), has a recognizable underlying structure. Because of the fluidity of pitch, the music sounds quite weird, with one of the quarter-tone pianos tuned \u00bc tone below the standard A=440.\nAlthough I\u2019m usually a bit averse to piano tangos, Ben-Amots\u2019 Tango for the Road, written for Quattro Mani, has unusual chromatic movement in it that delights the attentive listener. The melody sounds completely characteristic, as if it were written by Piazzolla, except with more sentimentality tossed in, particularly in the warm and relaxed second half. Quattro Mani play it as if this were their bread-and-butter repertoire, which clearly it is not. Eventually the music develops into swirling double-time figures before returning to the principal theme. It\u2019s a delightful piece that could easily serve as an encore.\nBy and large, then, a very interesting disc, well worth a listen!\nAn Abundance of Alkan!\nALKAN: 12 \u00c9tudes in the minor keys, Op. 39. 3 Morceau dan la genre path\u00e9tique.

Impromptu sur un choral de Luther. Petits Pr\u00e9ludes sur les 8 gammes du plain-chant / Kevin Bowyer, org / Brilliant Classics 95568 (13 CDs)\nOne day in the early 1880s, a piano student at the Paris Conservatoire was heading towards the rehearsal room when he heard a phenomenally gifted pianist playing there. Walking in, he saw an old man of about 70 with long white hair and a beard. The man turned to him with a smile and said, \u201cHello! I am Charles-Valentin Alkan, and now I am going to play for you Beethoven\u2019s great Op. 110 sonata.\u201d And he did, with superb technique and musicianship, much to the student\u2019s amazement.\nThe student was amazed because he had never even heard of him.\nWhen Alkan died in 1888 at age 74, he provoked one of the strangest obituaries ever published: \u201cCharles-Valentin Alkan has just died. It was necessary for him to die in order to suspect his existence.\u201d A man who had once been such a celebrated and in-demand pianist that even Franz Liszt was nervous to play in his presence had become such a recluse over the last 40 years of his life (with only occasional forays back into concertizing) that people simply forgot about him. Eventually, except for his two close friends C\u00e9sar Franck and Ferdinand Hiller, with whom he did indeed socialize, they forgot he had even lived. For nearly a century, an urban legend grew up that Alkan, who spent hours studying the Talmud and the Bible, died reaching for the former at the top of his bookcase (orthodox Jewry dictates that the Talmud must not have any book higher on the shelf than it) but that the bookcase fell on and crushed him. Sadly, the reality was more prosaic. He suffered a stroke in his kitchen, grabbing onto a coat rack for support which fell on him, and cried out for help. When they found him he was breathing laboriously but still alive. He died in his bed a few hours later.\nAnd when he died, he left behind the reputation of a man who wrote gargantuan, \u201cunplayable\u201d music (when he and his friend Chopin played together, at two pianos or one piano four hands, the Polish pianist-composer could scarcely keep up with him), and that was how it stayed until British pianist Ronald Smith recorded his Concerto for Solo Piano in the late 1940s, a performance of which I was unaware (you can stream it on YouTube). Then, in 1953, American pianist Raymond Lewenthal, building a good name and reputation for himself, was attacked by three thugs in New York\u2019s Central\nLewenthal in full regalia (minus candles)\nPark and had both hands and arms broken. His life in ruins, he spent seven years slowly healing and rebuilding his technique, bit by painful bit, and in that interim he ran across the mind-boggling scores of Alkan. Upon his return to the concert stage he decided to become the champion of several neglected composers, but Alkan in particular. WBAI in New York broadcast his two-hour concert-lecture on Alkan; someone at RCA Victor heard it and offered him a recording contract, and the really big Alkan Revival was underway in earnest. He dressed in 19th-century Gothic clothing (possibly inspiring the vampire-and-werewolf soap opera Dark Shadows), playing Alkan, Moscheles, Hummel, Scharwenka, Reubke and Dussek by candlelight to delighted audiences in both New York and London. Lewenthal received an award from the French government for championing a composer that even they had forgotten.\nBy the time of Lewenthal\u2019s death in 1988 he himself had become a recluse due to ill health. Only a few hardy souls were playing and recording Alkan then, among them Bernard Ringeissen, but it took Canadian Marc-Andr\u00e9 Hamelin to fully revive his music once again in the 1990s. Since then Alkan has been an occasional visitor to the concert hall, generally by super-virtuosi like Hamelin and Vincenzo Maltempo, the latter of whom plays a goodly amount of this set. And this brings us to this cornucopia of Alkan.\nNot everyone is enamored of Alkan, to say the least. One critic, whose name I have blissfully forgotten, called his music \u201ca charnel-house of notes.\u201d While it is true that Alkan\u2019s music is among the most note-filled in history, rivaling the scores of Liszt and Sorabji, I find it endlessly fascinating due to his continually original and imaginative treatment of themes and variants. You never know where Alkan is going at any given moment, and his almost inexhaustible fund of ideas contain such things as hands moving in contrary motion, continual crossed-hand passages in which it sounds like two pianists playing, and daring harmonic leaps that were close to 70 years ahead of their time. Whether you buy into his aesthetic or not, Alkan was obviously a visionary whose mind never stopped inventing. Indeed, when one considers that his music became ever more complex, futuristic and interesting during his long periods of retirement from performing, I would say that it was necessary for him to cut himself off from the world in order to create. The concierge of his apartment building was paid to tell anyone who asked for him that \u201cMonsieur Alkan is not in,\u201d even if they could hear him banging the piano behind the door to his rooms, yet when he felt like it he would go out and socialize or, as in the case of the opening story in this review, play the piano for anyone who happened to wander by.\nBut taking in this much Alkan requires time and patience. Like Art Tatum, Alkan is not a pianist you listen to for casual enjoyment. His music is so dense that you, too, need to cut yourself off from the world around you in order to enter his.\nWe start our journey here with what is often considered Alkan\u2019s masterpiece, the 12 \u00c9tudes in the minor keys. What looks on the surface like a relatively straightforward collection of piano pieces turns out to be anything but; the 12 \u00c9tudes run something like two hours to play, and include such impossible pieces as Comme le vent, En rhythme molossique, the Scherzo diabolico, Le festin d\u2019\u00c9sope, the nearly 15-minute Ouverture and the 52-minute Concerto for solo piano. Vincenzo Maltempo, who gets the lion\u2019s share of this set (and rightfully so), is clearly one of the best Alkan interpreters of all time. Comparing the works also recorded by Lewenthal (whose RCA Alkan recordings, reissued on CD two decades ago, are indispensable gems), one hears a similar clarity of note-production as well as an irresistible forward pulse. These traits are paramount to a proper representation of this composer, whose mind ran so quickly that his fingers on the keyboard, skilled as they were, could scarcely keep up with his imagination. Comparing Maltempo\u2019s performance of the Concerto pour piano to both Ronald Smith and Hamelin, the only other performances of the complete work I\u2019ve heard, shows the meticulous clarity of the former and the headlong rush of the latter, making his performance, for me, the best of the three. Moreover, he, like Smith, introduces moments of tenderness and relaxation into Alkan\u2019s music whereas Hamelin just plays softly, which is not the same thing. This is not a condemnation of Hamelin; his recording of the Concerto, which appeared in 1992, was such a sensation that it set a new standard, particularly for those who found Smith just a shade too relaxed for this composer (although Smith played with considerable fire). Brilliant Classics was particularly fortunate to obtain his services. Unfortunately, this pressing contains a flaw not found in the original three-disc release (Alkan: Genius-Enigma on Piano Classics), a series of loud clicking noises between 11:53 and 14:00 of the long first movement.\nPrior to this release, the only portion of the Grand Sonate, Op. 33 I knew was the second movement, titled \u201cQuasi-Faust,\u201d which was recorded by Lewenthal, but the rest of the sonata is equally fine music if not quite as bizarre. The third movement, for instance, titled \u201cA happy household,\u201d is one of the loveliest things Alkan ever wrote, an utterly charming piece, yet typical of him the music is developed over a long stretch of time (the movement runs 13:14) and within that time-frame he still manages to hold your attention. Likewise the final movement, \u201cPrometheus unchained,\u201d is even slower, moodier and deeper in feeling. I would equate it to some of the finest slow movements in the late Beethoven sonatas, and that is a high compliment indeed. To a certain extent, Lewenthal\u2019s focus on presenting only the most modernistic and outr\u00e9 of Alkan\u2019s pieces created an imbalance. It led listeners to believe that all or most of his output was like that, when in fact the most startling and grotesque music was intermittent. This was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt when British pianist Steven Osborne recorded the 48 Esquisses for Hyperion in 2003. Osborne was one of the Alkan-haters; hearing the Symphonie while in college, \u201cI just didn\u2019t \u2018get it\u2019 at all and its extreme virtuosity meant I ended up pigeonholing him as an empty showman.\u201d This music is scarcely the product of an empty showman.\nA page from \u201cQuasi-Faust\u201d\nMaltempo\u2019s performance of the Sonatine, an 18-minute work that could easily pass for a full-blown sonata by many another composer, is considerably crisper and more exciting than the 1988 recording by Bernard Ringeissen for French Harmonia Mundi, but you need to remember that his was the first time this piece ever appeared on a record, and we were all thrilled to have it at the time. The outr\u00e9 Alkan shows himself particularly in the last movement, where strange harmonic clashes (as at 1:45) remind one of early Stravinsky. The manic perpetuum mobile of the Grande \u00c9tude Op. 76, No. 3 is so daunting that I couldn\u2019t even imagine how many hours it must have taken Maltempo to get this music under his fingers!\nPianist Mark Viner plays the much rarer 12 \u00c9tudes in the major keys, no less virtuosic than their minor-key brethren but more Chopinesque in quality. He\u2019s a fine pianist, with fast fingering and good articulation, if less dynamic in forward momentum than Maltempo (I think it has to do with his sense of rhythm being a bit more metronomic). That being said, their less grotesque, more melodic qualities suit his style very well.\nIf the previous work is somewhat Chopinesque, most of the 49 Esquisses are entirely in that style. In fact, the very odd Menuet (No. 32) bears a slight resemblance to the funeral march in Chopin\u2019s sonata. I\u2019m sure they were influenced by his being Chopin\u2019s neighbor for a considerable amount of time and admiring the Polish composer\u2019s lyrical, appealing style. Laurent Martin, a superb pianist who studied with Germaine Audibert and Pierre Sancan, recorded these works, almost with other pieces by Alkan, for the old Marco Polo label which Naxos eventually bought out. If his playing here is less floated or atmospheric than Osborne, I find it more \u201cAlkan-like\u201d in its clarity and energy. Martin has a sure grasp on the style and makes the Esquisses sound more of an integral part of Alkan\u2019s oeuvre: note, particularly, the clarity and strength of the fugue in No. 6. There are also such unquestionable Alkan touches as the rapidly-shifting chromatic changes in No. 9, \u201cConfidence,\u201d and in No. 10, \u201cIncrepatio,\u201d we come face-to-face with the grotesque Alkan, shifting both rhythm and harmony in almost demonic fashion. There are even more typically Alkan-style pieces towards the end of the series, such as No. 41, \u201cLes enharmoniques,\u201d No. 45 \u201cLes diablotins,\u201d and the No. 47 \u201cScherzetto.\u201d Osborne makes very little of these when compared to Martin.\nMartin also plays excerpts from the 25 Pr\u00e9ludes in the major and minor Keys, Variations sur un th\u00e8me de Steibelt. Rondeau chromatique. Alleluia, the Impromptus and Super flumina Babylonis. In all of these he is exemplary in his command of both timing and use of space in the music, but particularly in the 25 Preludes. \u201cLa chanson de la folle au bord de la mer,\u201d the song of the madwoman by the ocean, is particularly outstanding. Near the end of the first suite in the 25 Pr\u00e9ludes, we hear No. 9, \u201cPlaciditas; Tranquillo,\u201d which sounds for all the world like a lullaby written by late Mozart or early Beethoven, immediately followed by the \u201cDans le style fugue: Tr\u00e8s vite,\u201d an almost ferocious perpetuum mobile, which is in turn followed by a Baroque-sounding \u201cUn petit rien.\u201d To this extent, then, Alkan encompassed the whole of classical piano style from the Baroque to the late Romantic, including glimpses of more modern piano music to come. Listen, for instance, to the \u201cVivace\u201d from the second book of the Op. 32 Impromptus, and you\u2019ll hear a motor rhythm and melodic treatment that sounds as if it were written yesterday.\nBut of course Alkan, a product of his time, included lots of variations on other composers\u2019 themes\u2014inferior composers like Steibelt and Donizetti as well as superior ones like Mozart and Beethoven. It was just the way things were, the \u201cpops concerts\u201d of their time.\nPianist Alan Weiss plays the nocturne and the Op. 38a Chants. He has a nice style but tend to round off Alkan a bit too much, avoiding the edginess of the music. This was the same way that Bernard Ringeissen played his music back in the 1980s. On the other hand, Alessandro Deljavan has the full measure of Alkan\u2019s style in the two Petits Pi\u00e8ces and three Grandes \u00e9tudes, sounding almost like Maltempo. In the midst of Chopinesque music, we suddenly get the first of the 3 Petits Fantaisies, played by Maltempo, which suddenly sounds like Latin music. Alessandro Deljavan, who plays the 3 Grandes \u00e9tudes and 2 Petits pi\u00e8ces, also digs into the music much like Maltempo, particularly in the demonic third etude, \u201cMouvement semblable et perpetual.\u201d\nContinuing through the solo piano music we find frequent examples of Alkan\u2019s polyglot tastes and variegated style. His nocturnes, surprisingly, are not at all like those of Chopin or Field, being a bit more wide-awake, yet his Les mois is hypnotic, built around soft motor rhythms. Personally, I wasn\u2019t happy with the duplication of the Sonatine in an alternate performance by Constantino Mastroprimiano, not because his performance is inferior to Maltempo\u2019s but, on the contrary, because it\u2019s so much alike that it doesn\u2019t really add anything. On the other hand, Maltempo\u2019s interpretation of the \u201cSong of the madwoman by the sea\u201d is considerably different from Laurent Martin\u2019s, though to be honest I liked Martin\u2019s version better.\nMoving on to his chamber music, we hear Alkan redistributing some of the \u201cimpossible\u201d figures he normally required pianists to play by themselves to the violin and/or cello, yet although the violin and cello parts are also virtuosic he did not require them to stretch beyond normal human limitations as he did in his solo keyboard works. Moreover, the Grand Duo Concertant for violin and piano is really quite melodic in the conventional 19th-century sense of the term, despite his adventurous theme developments. I was lucky enough to hear a live performance of his Piano Trio at Cincinnati\u2019s College-Conservatory of Music back in the 1990s, and was somewhat amazed by its lyricism and lack of \u201cAlkan-isms\u201d in its harmonic vernacular. These recordings by Trio Alkan, who consist of violinist Kolja Lessing, pianist Rainer Klaas and cellist Bernhard Schwarz, were made (like Martin\u2019s) for the old Marco Polo label. Brilliant Classics must have leased them from Naxos for this issue, and I\u2019m glad they did as they give his music a different dimension.\nI was almost shocked to hear the Concerti da camera because I had never heard anything written by Alkan for piano and orchestra. It turns out that he wrote these in 1832, but the orchestral parts were lost for a very long time so the music was only known in his arrangement for solo piano. The first two are in three parts but linked, as in the case of Weber\u2019s Konzertst\u00fcck which seems to have been his inspiration for the first of them. The music is indeed Weber-like, with little of Alkan\u2019s famed harmonic audacity and, surprisingly, only intermittently impossible to play; most of it could easily be learned by an intermediate piano student. Apparently this was a time (the early 1830s) when he was trying to appeal to a mass audience. The second one sounds much more like Alkan, with edgier orchestral music and flashier pianism. Fran\u00e7ois Luguenot is credited with having fully reconstructed these scores. They are played by Giovanni Bellucci, who has a lighter, more Chopin-like touch at the keyboard, but this suits them to a T. I really liked the three Scherzi bravoure but could have lived without the variations on a rather punk aria from Donizetti\u2019s equally punk opera, Anna Bolena. Alkan did create something quite interesting out of the Variations on Bellini, and the Variations quasi fantaisie sur une barcarolle Napolitaine take an exceptionally simple tune into complex rhythmic and harmonic territory.\nThe last disc presents some of Alkan\u2019s organ music as performed by Kevin Bowyer. With its \u201csofter\u201d attack and more diffuse sound, the organ wasn\u2019t really an instrument that Alkan had a great affinity for, thus some of this music sounds more pedantic than his piano scores, yet there are moments of interest where he allowed himself to play in his mind with the music qua music and forget about the instrument as such. Some of the Pri\u00e8res could easily be played as musical preludes to a Christian church service and no one would be the wiser as to who wrote it. Most of them are relatively simple exercises that toodle along, creating a nice atmosphere but little else. Of course, having never heard any of it before, I don\u2019t know how much of this music\u2019s quietude comes from the score and how much comes from Bowyer, with whose work I was unfamiliar. No. 4, marked \u201cModerato,\u201d is one of the liveliest of them before one gets to No. 8 (\u201cTempo giusto\u201d) or No. 12 (\u201cAllegretto\u201d), yet No. 5 (\u201cAdagio\u201d) is a long crescendo that builds to fairly exciting climaxes and No. 6 (\u201cModerato\u201d) is exceptionally virtuosic, calling for his patented two-handed runs at quadruple speed, with audacious shifts of key and odd pauses. Unusually, the final piece, marked \u201cAndantino,\u201d is a jaunty 6/8 tune that I\u2019m not sure would be anyone\u2019s idea of a \u201cprayer.\u201d\nThe Petits Pr\u00e9ludes are just that, a series of very brief pieces, some running only about a half minute, which gives lie to the fact that everything Alkan wrote was a monstrosity. They are, in fact, charming and well-crafted pieces. The organ set, and the collection in general, ends with one of his most impressive pieces, the Impromptu sur le choral de Luther, \u201cA Mighty Fortress is Our God.\u201d The variations therein range from harmonically adventurous to chipper to moody, with Alkan redistributing rhythms and accents, at one point completely rewriting the hymn as something that almost resembles a saltarelle overlaid on a 4/4 beat. At another point he has the right hand, in a particularly soft, \u201cbuzzy\u201d registration, playing the hymn melody while the left plays strange chromatic swirls around it. Even weirder, it wraps up with a multitonal m\u00e9lange of sound that leads into the organist playing one key in the left hand and another in the right. Wild!\nThis whole set is selling at Presto Classical for $35.50 and $39.52 at Europadisc, which is a steal (Amazon, for some strange reason, is charging almost $60). If you are fan of Alkan or have an interest in outstanding 19th-century piano music, you can\u2019t afford to pass this one up.\nCalandra Turns Up the Heat in \u201cErotica Antiqua\u201d\nEROTICA ANTIQUA / DELL\u2019ARPA: Villanella che all-acqua vai.

Going through the Brilliant Classics website I chanced upon this disc and was intrigued by the review posted there, so I took a chance on it. I\u2019m glad I did.\nSoprano Letizia Calandra is an utterly remarkable singer whose voice combines sensuality with a folk-singer-like sound. In the latter respect she reminded me of Jantina Noorman, the great Dutch folk singer whose voice was so good that she crossed over and did several classical recordings. My regular readers will know, as I stated in my long review of Gabriel Garrido\u2019s Monteverdi operas, that early \u201cclassical singers\u201d were most often not trained voices, that many of them were popular or folk singers of their time who crossed over to perform this music. Calandra certainly fits into this category.\nIn fact, I will give you fair warning. If you\u2019re a man, you are going to be seduced by Calandra\u2019s voice, so much so that you may want to marry her! It\u2019s that sensuous, and no lie. As for the music, it mostly dates from the early to mid-16th century, which is pre-Baroque, so \u201cAntiqua\u201d is indeed an appropriate title for this music. Since the CD booklet has no song texts, I\u2019ve included them here, courtesy of Brilliant Classics, albeit in Italian only. Once you know what some of the lyrics are, you come to appreciate her interpretations all the better. Unfortunately, Google Translate has a hard time with early Italian, but I think your eyes may pop out of your head when you see lyrics like this pop up:\nBeloved eyes\nYou\u2019re fucking me\nWhy ruthless\nHenceforth your\nGorgeous serenity\nOf full joy\nYour splendor\nFlames of the Choirs\nVermilion mouth\nThe best description I can give of Calendra\u2019s voice is that it is simultaneously bright in timbre and sensuous in its well-shaded delivery. She almost sounds like a female counterpart to Italian tenor/folk singer Pino di Vittorio, whose recordings of early music on the Glossa album Canto della Sirena (Glossa 922603) I raved about in Fanfare magazine several years ago. THIS is how you sing this material, with life and feeling and earthiness, not like it\u2019s a vocal exercise to be produced by well-placed but boring tones. I also need to lavish praise on her accompanists, Ensemble Arte Musica, who play the music as enthusiastically as Calendra sings it. There is absolutely no comparison one can make of this record to the majority of \u201cearly music\u201d dead-heads out there; they remind me of the once-famous early music group Kalenda Maya, whose recordings of the 1980s garnered short-lived but enthusiastic critical acclaim.\nYou may not believe your ears when listening to the songs by Orlando di Lasso, as these are miles removed from his normal stuffy religious music. Apparently, these were the kinds of songs he wrote when he wasn\u2019t in church!\nThis is, quite simply, a fun recording!",

        "title": "8 Things My Parents Taught Me - Author K. Williams",
        "raw_content": "8 Things My Parents Taught Me\nReader questions are always welcome on the blog. When this one came up, I was pretty excited. What my parents taught me might take a book of its own to cover. I\u2019ll try to keep it brief and still answer the question.\nSetting aside the obvious things, like how to walk, use the toilet, brush your teeth, and speak your first words, there are so many more things a parent can teach you. Focusing on the formative lessons will give more insight into the kind of parenting I had. I\u2019m sure that is what lay at the root of the question\u2026\nJust because I was born a girl didn\u2019t mean I couldn\u2019t be anything I wanted.\nMy dad made sure I knew that I could grow up to be whatever I wanted. Asking him if an astronaut was still on the table, and his confident assurance, assured me that it was true.\nSpeak up for yourself because no one else will.\nBoth of my parents made sure that I was comfortable talking to them about my problems, as well as things that made me happy. As I grew older this likely became more difficult for them, but they persevered because of how important a matter this is. This can protect your children from bad things.\nHaving each other is for the rest of our lives. That relationship is important. In our case, it was about always having support and love. Other than my parents, I have one brother. In my father\u2019s family, he had three siblings, and they\u2019re mostly estranged. My father was close to his one brother for the majority of his youth, but my uncle\u2019s path took him to another part of the state in which we live. Without their parents to bind them, the distances grew. My mother saw the distance beginning early on, and intervened between me and my brother, who were typical siblings bickering here and there, to ensure that we realized the importance of each other. We were taught to respect each other, to forgive, and to keep in contact. We\u2019re doing just that, even though he lives many hours away. It takes effort, but when you know that your family matters, that effort is meaningless. The rewards of the stability and affection, you either give or receive, are worth it.\nMarriage is work.\nI\u2019ve never been married. I don\u2019t think I could ever find someone that would work as hard to keep love between us as my parents do. Maybe they\u2019re old school, but they understand marriage is work. It\u2019s worthy work, just like keeping family close. Additionally, they showed me that not just anyone would do. You don\u2019t just get married because you\u2019re with someone at a certain age and that seems like the next step you\u2019re supposed to take. Marriage should be wanted for more than that, or it becomes nothing more than going steady. Also, it\u2019s not about having the wedding and showing off. That ceremony is such a small nothing in the greater aspect of being wedded to your partner. It needs to be more than timing, or fulfilling a responsibility. Marriage is a responsibility, and you only choose the partner that understands that and truly loves you. Sex, gifts, rings, china patterns, and other frills won\u2019t keep it together. The people involved do.\nEven small lives matter. Go out there with Empathy.\nMy parents taught me to respect the lives of wildlife, and that what we know about animals and plants is still being learned. When I was growing up, it was believed dogs saw in black and white. Now, researchers have found that they see colors, although they may not be the equal of the human spectrum. The idea behind that was a question that I had when learning the black and white myth: just because the cones and things aren\u2019t arranged like ours, why does that mean they don\u2019t capture the same spectrum that my eyes do, considering the brain decodes the information and thus we see? (Yes, I was a pretty intelligent kid.) Thus, I started seeing the interconnections humanity had with the rest of the world in which we live. Being able to relate to animals and plants empathetically ensured that I would do the same among my own kind. And that is very important for forging relationships and being a positive contributing member of society.\nA love of reading.\nIf I was going to be anything I wanted, I needed to be able to read well. Reading opens the doors to greater knowledge. Think of the children who struggled in school. They often were not strong readers. Schools try to remedy this, but they don\u2019t meet the frustration of the child struggling to catch up, believing that the gift of taking time and correcting the deficit enough is reward enough. Simply not true. You have to speak to a child\u2019s hurts. You have to speak to why they were lacking in the first place (some parents do not value reading and learning, actually insulting these things before their children and teaching them to spurn it). One size fits all doesn\u2019t work. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important for parents to be involved with their child\u2019s growth and learning. A lot of how they learn will be decided by mom and/or dad. What they value, even more so.\nOthers may not respect your accomplishments, and that doesn\u2019t matter.\nThis goes with the one before. You know how parents might not value education, and teach their children to feel similarly? Well, those kids grow up and you still have to interact with them (not necessarily the ones from your school). They make remarks in the office, online, and even in public that attempt to diminish the things you\u2019ve done in your life. Whether it comes from a place of inadequacy on their part or a true hatred of clever people, it doesn\u2019t matter. These folks are just fine with the mundane. So be it. That is ultimately their choice. However, they don\u2019t get to trump facts with opinions, as they often attempt to do. Nor do they get to make those who have worked their tails off feel as though they\u2019ve done something wrong. Education matters, and so does the level of it. If you chose not to achieve certain things, then there are consequences for it\u2014good or bad. So long as you realize your self-worth and the merit of your achievement, those who chose else cannot take that away from you, though they may make for hard days, as we are forced to face the often destructive efforts they back and partake in.\nI promised to not take up all of your time, so I will stop here. I hope this answered the question and helped you see a little deeper into what makes me tick.",

        "raw_content": "AUG. 13: THE CLEANSING\nAugustine of Hippo, a third century church father from northern Africa, most likely spent his last days reflecting on Psalm 32. It\u2019s easy to see why a dying saint would find comfort in these words because they are about the happiness, joy, and blessing of those who have experienced God\u2019s forgiveness. [Read more\u2026]\nAUG. 6: THE CONFESSION\nSomewhere in the springtime around 1000 B.C., kings would go to battle. In II Samuel 11, King David shirked his responsibility and this decision proved costly. What followed would become some of the darkest moments in David\u2019s life. These events form the backdrop for Psalm 51, a prayer which models for us what genuine confession and repentance should look like.\nTrue confession begins with a humble heart. David acknowledges that his sin is \u201cever before\u201d him and that sin has been with him from the moment of his conception (vv. 3, 5). He sees the depth of his depravity and cries out \u201cHave mercy on me, O God\u201d (v. 1). It is only when we see the all-encompassing nature of sin in our lives that we sense our need for God to do something in us. David\u2019s concern becomes less about hiding his sin and more about being right with the Lord. He humbly accepts the words of a friend and allows God to work in his heart. [Read more\u2026]\nJUL. 30: HIS FAITHFULNESS\nWe are quick to trust human leaders because we are drawn to things that we can see with our own eyes and hear with our own ears. But the longer we are preoccupied with the people around us, we lose sight of the person above us. It\u2019s no wonder that American people are anxious, fearful, restless, and troubled! The Psalms call us to step out of our narrow view of the world and to focus more on God. If we put our hope in men, we will be disappointed. But if we put our hope in God, we will cultivate a soul that is happy in the Lord. [Read more\u2026]\nJUL. 23: HIS LOVE\nFocal Passage: Psalm 136:1-5, 10-15, 23-26\nCommunicating our love to others strengthens our relationship and reassures them of our commitment. Rather than describing how much we love God, Psalm 136 tells of the many ways God has loved us. The psalmist knows that there is a direct connection between remembering and thankfulness, and between thankfulness and trusting in God. When he calls us to \u201cgive thanks to the LORD,\u201d he is reminding us that our God is a covenant keeping King who rules faithfully over His people. He is sovereign over the spiritual realm (\u201cGod of gods\u201d) and over every earthly ruler (\u201cLord of lords\u201d). The psalmist uses these titles and the refrain, \u201cHis steadfast love endures forever,\u201d to assure us that when God sets His love on a people, He never takes it away. [Read more\u2026]\nJUL. 16: GOD REVEALED\nNo matter how busy our lives may become, we all have experiences where the beauty and grandeur of God\u2019s creation stop us in our tracks. Our family lives in a beautiful area surrounded by hiking trails, swimming holes, and caves. We\u2019re always amused to see the variety of state license plates on the vehicles in our local parks. You probably have your own special place that causes your heart to be filled with worship toward our Creator. But while everyone will not have the opportunity to see an ocean or stand on the edge of the Grand Canyon, all of us can see and feel the majesty of a night sky. [Read more\u2026]\nJUL. 9: THE CREATOR\nPsalm 95 is a call for believers to joyfully and reverently worship God in a world characterized by unbelief. Psalm 95:1-7 contains a three-fold invitation for us to \u201ccome\u201d to him (vv. 1, 2, 6). It\u2019s not primarily a call to individual believers, but to the collective assembly (note the use of \u201cus,\u201d \u201cour,\u201d and \u201cwe\u201d). Today and every Sunday, there is a call to the church throughout the world to come and sing joyful songs of praise, giving thanks in His presence. We\u2019re to come into God\u2019s presence with loud joy and loud thanksgiving (v. 1b, 2b). As part of the congregation of the redeemed, do you sing loudly and joyfully when you worship on Sunday? I once told our congregation that I would call individuals out if I witnessed them not singing during our worship gatherings. For the next few weeks, I purposefully moved around, sitting in a different pew each service. I\u2019m happy to report that they\u2019ve been singing loudly ever since. [Read more\u2026]\nJUL. 2: HIS PRESENCE\nAt the center of your being, what do you long for? Once you have seen the dwelling place of the Lord of Hosts, you have no desire to be any place else (Psalm 84:1-2). As the Sons of Korah strolled through the temple courtyard and reflected on the glory of the Lord, something caught their attention: birds\u2019 nests (v. 3). If the Lord welcomes sparrows to nest in His presence, how much more will He welcome you to the heavenly Jerusalem (Hebrews 12:18-24). The Sons of Korah could rejoice in the special role God had assigned them: \u201cBlessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing your praise! (Psalm 84:4).\u201d [Read more\u2026]\nJUN. 25: OUR RESPONSE\nFocal Passage: Psalm 138:1-8\n\u201cThe Lord will fulfill his purpose for me\u201d (Psalm 138:8). I believe this truth now more than ever, because I have a history with God. When our son was 2 years old, he was misdiagnosed with a virus. After several days of a persistently high fever, and many tests and consultations, he was diagnosed with a very serious auto-immune disease which attacks the lining of the heart. To make matters worse, the accumulated pressures of ministry, seminary, and medical bills caused me to begin having panic attacks. It felt like we were going through the valley of the shadow of death. Today, I can say with thanksgiving that God not only brought our family through this trial, but has delivered us through many more. [Read more\u2026]\nJUN. 18: THE SHEPHERD\nPsalm 23 is undoubtedly the most beloved psalm, and maybe even the most well-known chapter in the entire Bible. Even irreligious people are familiar with these words and drawn to them in times of crisis: \u201cThe LORD is my shepherd.\u201d There are many names for God in the Bible, but Yahweh is the most sacred. Often translated as \u201cLORD\u201d (in small, upper case letters), it\u2019s used to show the personal nature of God and how He relates to human beings. In Psalm 23:1-3, David describes this eternal, unchangeable, covenant-making God as a \u201cshepherd!\u201d Shepherding was the job of lower classes or the youngest in the household (1 Samuel 16:11). Why would the king of the universe bother himself to find \u201cgreen pastures\u201d for me? Why would He lead me to a place of \u201cstill waters?\u201d After all, He is the LORD! But He\u2019s also \u201cmy shepherd!\u201d [Read more\u2026]\nJUN. 11: THE PAST\nFocal Passage: Psalm 78:5-8, 32-39\nRecently, I watched a video in which people were asked important questions about American history. These videos have likely been edited (we hope) to include only the most outrageous answers. When asked about World War II, one individual suggested it was fought in 1970! The warning is clear: When a people forget their history, they are in danger of losing their unique identity. To put it another way: We are what we remember. [Read more\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "By Jessica Galang Canadian Startup News, Event Recaps October 7, 2015\n#WWTO shows VR\u2019s possibilities are endless\nFor the final We Are Wearables Toronto event of the year, WWTO founder and BetaKit Senior Editor Tom Emrich ended 10 months of discussing the hottest wearables with a bang. October\u2019s We Are Wearables was an appropriately-named Big VR event, focusing on how the emerging technology is eventually going to change the world. Featuring guests like the Toronto-based creative director of Secret Location, one of the first content agencies to win an Emmy for its VR use, it wasn\u2019t surprising to hear that Emrich\u2019s monthly events just reached 5,000 members.\n\u201cAre we prepared, as we build these metaverses, to create that public commons?\u201d\n\u201cIt feels like we\u2019re in the calm before the storm right now, the same kind of feeling I was getting before the iPhone launch,\u201d said Ben Unsworth, co-founder of Globacore, about the future of VR. \u201cCome early next year, when the Oculus becomes actually commercially available and the Samsung Gear is out, it\u2019s going to be a completely different ball game.\u201d\nBut as VR technology becomes adopted by mainstream audiences, it\u2019s difficult to know what kind of world will be created with such a technology. Ana Serrano, chief digital officer of the Canadian Film Centre, raised these concerns as she talked about why VR matters.\n\u201cThere will be experiences where tracking biodata and eye movement will be critical to making the experience as pleasurable as possible. But we need to make sure that we don\u2019t give VR over completely to commercial interests. \u201cRight now we have a web that\u2019s totally commercial,\u201d Serrano said. \u201cThere are no spaces on the web where we can say something without fear of someone overhearing. Are we prepared, as we build these metaverses, to create that public commons? I want to ensure that it doesn\u2019t end up living in a Matrix-like environment. And I think if we don\u2019t design with intention, then we could fall into it accidentally.\u201d\nWith a varied group of presenters across industries that will likely be hard-hit by a wave of interest in VR, some guests talked about how coming from a tech perspective, rather than a traditional film perspective, will help their companies reinvent the wheel.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have the burden of knowledge and because we don\u2019t have this baggage of facts to have to hold onto,\u201d said Josh Farkas, the \u2018strategy ninja\u2019 at Cubicle Ninjas. \u201cWhen people approach this from a completely fresh canvas, they can do innovative and interesting things.\u201d\nThe early adopters that came from the film industry attested to the struggles of adjusting to new technologies. \u201cAs a director, it\u2019s funny that I talk to others and some of them are like, \u2018where\u2019s the front camera?\u2019,\u201d said J. Lee Williams, a VFX and animation director, and co-founder of OccupiedVR. \u201cThe biggest thing they don\u2019t understand is that it\u2019s something totally different. And there\u2019s so many different tools to do this and it\u2019s part of being a director. We\u2019ve created a new medium.\u201d\n\u201cWith VR we\u2019re talking about healthcare, tourism, architecture, history, geography and all these cool things,\u201d Farkas continued. \u201cOftentimes when people talk about VR they\u2019re talking about narrative or games, and it limits VR to these boxes. But VR doesn\u2019t have to end where our perceived ideas on VR end.\u201d\nSo while people are on the lookout for their favourite games or movies to become immersive virtual reality experience, the panelists agreed that the technology has the potential to change more than that.\n\u201cI think anybody that has an idea and has something they wanna portray, how I see it is just as a limitless canvas, and you can do whatever you want to do,\u201d said Milan Baic, founder of PinchVr. \u201cIf it makes sense for your story and your content, then do it. There\u2019s no conventions.\u201d\neventstorontowearables\nToronto-based Jiffy on Demand closes half a million seed round\nHubba closes $11 million Series A with lofty intentions\nMontreal-based adtech startup District M raises $8 million in funding\nDistrict M, an adtech company that provides programmatic solutions for publishers and advertisers, announced $8 million in funding from Fonds de solidarit\u00e9 FTQ, a\u2026",

        "raw_content": "So I recently realized that in all these posts, I have never really laid out what we do on a regular basis, and it\u2019s really the basis of my next several posts. We live in Davao, Philippines, and we own a small bag manufacturing business. This is what we did in the United States, and several years ago God put the vision on our hearts to move it overseas, use it as a ministry, and allow us to get more involved with the community. I know. We could get involved in ministries right there in Oregon, and well, we did. But, the business required so much of our personal time and attention that it was never at a level that we wanted to do, and we were always left drained, empty, and exhausted. Being in a region where it\u2019s economically viable to have several employees allows us to get much more involved, and even have occasional free time.\nMy husband, Dan, is the pillar of the business. We argue back and forth as to who runs the show, we both claim the other, so I guess it\u2019s evenly split. We make a good team. We have a handful of solid employees, we have been so blessed in this area. We are still heavily involved in the daily operations, but our workers are making us more and more obsolete every day.\nOne thing Dan had on his heart from the get go was to begin a trade school as well. We have had several local people approach is, saying they want to learn to sew, or know someone who does. In the near future, he is going to begin weekend classes for those interested, at no cost. There is a ton of creativity within the population here, and so many potential micro businesses. Supplying the know how is what is really lacking.\nDan also has an extensive background in search and rescue training and carpentry, and he, with several other missionaries, have been doing recovery and rebuilding since Typhoon Pablo hit Mindanao in December. And speaking of carpentry, he also teaches wood shop, and this coming Fall, carpentry, at Faith Academy, the local missionary school our kids attend.\nSo while Dan is running around building things, I play with kids. Partnered with a very good friend of mine, Vergie, I get to teach kids every Saturday in Agdao, one of the more impoverished areas in the city. The kids all attend school, and are sponsored through Oasis Ministries, a local organization that has several programs focusing on kids through high school age and beyond. We average about 12-16 kids a week, down from nearly 70, before the groups were restructured. I love the individual attention and relationship that the smaller group allows. We also visit the kids throughout the week, usually once a week, to check in, inform them about upcoming activities, and to just love on them.\nBeyond that, we live life. Despite being in a country that moves at a slower, more casual pace, life is a full time job.

There is a connection between what Christians believe and what God has done in the world He created.\nThe Christian J. Gresham Machen wrote:\nThe primitive Church was concerned not merely with what Jesus had said, but also, and primarily, with what Jesus had done. The world was to be redeemed through the proclamation of an event. And with the event went the meaning of the event; and the setting forth of the event with the meaning of the event was doctrine. These two elements are always combined in the Christian message. The narration of the facts is history; the narration of the facts with the meaning of the facts is doctrine. \u201cSuffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried\u201d\u2013that is history. \u201cHe loved me and gave Himself for me\u201d\u2013that is doctrine. Such was the Christianity of the primitive Church (Christianity and Liberalism, 29).\nGeorge Eldon Ladd also pointed out the importance of history as it relates to the beliefs of Christianity:\nThe uniqueness and scandal of the Christian religion rests in the mediation of revelation through historical events. The Hebrew-Christian faith stands apart from the religions of its environment because it is an historical faith, whereas they were religions rooted in mythology or the cycle of nature. The God of Israel was the God of history, or the geschichtsgott, as German theologians so vividly put it. The Hebrew-Christian faith did not grow out of lofty philosophical speculation or profound mystical experiences. It arose out of the historical experiences of Israel, old and new, in which God made Himself known. This fact imparts to the Christian faith a specific content and objectivity which set it apart from others\u2026. The Bible is not primarily a collection of the religious ideas of a series of great thinkers. It is not first of all a system of theological concepts, much less of philosophical speculations\u2026.The recital of God\u2019s historical acts is the substance of Christian proclamation (\u201cThe Knowledge of God: The Saving Acts of God\u201d in ed., Carl F. H. Henry, Basic Christian Doctrines [New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1962], 7-13).\nGod makes Himself known not only in His Words but also in His works; God works in history. History matters because events that happen in history are true for everyone:\nThey [events pertaining to the Gospel] were true because they happened in history, and things that happen in history are not just true for direct participants, but are true for everyone (Michael Horton, \u201cHeaven Came Down\u201d; Modern Reformation, Nov./Dec. 1995, Vol. 4 No. 6).\nThe relationship between Christian belief and history is important because hundreds of millions of Muslims deny the historical event of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross.\nHundreds of millions of Muslims deny Jesus\u2019 death on the cross\nThe Quran claims about the crucifixion:\n157And because of their saying (in boast), \u201cWe killed Messiah \u2018Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allah,\u201d \u2014 but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of \u2018Iesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. \u2018Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)]: 158But Allah raised him [\u2018Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise. (An-Nisa 4:157-158, Muhsin Khan 1The Muhsin Khan translation of the Quran\u2019s meaning is often distributed to Hajj pilgrims in Saudi Arabia. It is not just an interpretation of the Quran\u2019s meaning but also a commentary on the Quranic text.) 2Quran 4:157 is the only verse in the Quran that refers to the crucifixion of Jesus and is the text Muslims have interpreted to mean that Jesus did not die on the cross. For a more detailed discussion of this verse and the several other passages in the Quran that speak about Jesus\u2019 death and ascension see my chapter \u201cHistory, Doctrine, and Muslim Agnosticism.\u201d\nIbn \u2018Abbas (d.68/687) a paternal cousin of Muhammad and esteemed by many Muslims as the \u201cfather of Quran commentary\u201d and \u201cthe Ocean [of knowledge]\u201d commented on Quran 4:157-158:\n(And because of their saying: We slew the Messiah Jesus son of Mary, Allah\u2019s messenger) Allah destroyed their man Tatianos [a Roman soldier]. (They slew him not nor crucified, but it appeared so unto them) Allah made Tatianos look like Jesus and so they killed him instead of him; (and lo! those who disagree concerning it) concerning his killing (are in doubt thereof) in doubt about his killing; (they have no knowledge thereof save pursuit of a conjecture) not even conjecture; (they slew him not for certain) i.e. certainly they did not kill him. (Tafsir Ibn \u2018Abbas, translated by Mokrane Guezzou, http://www.altafsir.com/)\nThe commentator al-Baydawi (d.685/1282), a good example of classical Islamic interpretation, wrote of the crucifixion:\nThere is a story that a group of Jews insulted Jesus and his mother, whereupon he appealed to God against them. When God transformed those [who had insulted them] into monkeys and swine, the Jews took counsel to kill Jesus. Then God told Jesus that He would raise him up to heaven, and so Jesus said to his disciples: \u201cWho among you will agree to take a form similar to mine and die [in my place] and be crucified and then go [straight] to paradise?\u201d A man among them offered himself, so God changed him into a form resembling Jesus\u2019 and he was killed and crucified.\nOthers say that a man pretended [to be a believer] in Jesus\u2019 presence but then went off and denounced him, whereupon God changed the man into a form similar to that of Jesus, and that he was seized and crucified (translated in Francis E. Peters, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam: The Classical Texts and Their Interpretation, vol. 1, From Covenant to Community, chap.3, no.30 [Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1990], 151).\nIslam\u2019s denial of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross is a radical redefinition of history\nIslam\u2019s denial of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross is a radical redefinition of history.3Some branches of Islam argue that the Quran does not deny the death of Jesus on the cross: \u201cCertain falasifa and some Ismaili commentators have interpreted this passage thus: the Jews intended to destroy the person of Jesus completely; in fact, they crucified only his nasut [humanity], his lahut [divinity] remained alive; cf. L. Massignon, Le Christ dans les \u00c9vangiles selon Ghazali, in REI, 1932, 523-36, who cites texts of the Rasa\u2019il Ikhwan al-Safa (ed. Bombay, iv, 115), a passage of Abu Hatim al-Razi (about 934), and another of the Ismaili Mu\u2019ayyad Shirazi (1077). But this interpretation was not generally accepted and it may be said that there is unanimous agreement in denying the crucifixion [death of Jesus on the cross]. The denial, furthermore, is in perfect agreement with the logic of the Kur\u2019an\u201d (Anawati, G.C. \u201cIsa.\u201d, in The Encyclopaedia of Islam, E. J. Brill, Leiden, CD-ROM version)The small minority of Muslims who believe Jesus died on the cross do not interpret the meaning of Jesus\u2019 death in terms of atonement for sin. Nor do they believe in Jesus\u2019 bodily resurrection on the first day of the week for our justification (Romans 4:25; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4). To learn more about the Shia Ismaili view see Khalil Andani, \u201cThey Killed Him Not: The Crucifixion in Shi\u2018a Isma\u2018ili Islam.\u201d\nObservation, witness, testimony, and human analysis have little or no role in learning about what happened centuries ago at Golgotha. The only thing that ultimately matters is that Muhammad claimed an angel revealed to him something about the past contrary to what was observed and recorded. This is all in spite of the fact that Muhammad came hundreds of years after the event, lived hundreds of miles away, and did not provide any evidence. Denying history has tragic consequences as can be seen in our day with those who deny the Holocaust.4Denials of the historical event of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross has parallels with denials of other historical events such as the Holocaust, which is illegal in some countries.\n\u201cHow many Jews died at the hands of the Nazis? The second major axis around which Holocaust denial turns is the number of victims. Paul Rassinier concluded in his 1978 book, Debunking the Genocide Myth\u2026that \u201ca minimum of 4,419,908 Jews succeeded in leaving Europe between 1931 and 1945.\u201d Therefore, he argued, far fewer than 6 million died at the hands of the Nazis. Most Holocaust scholars, however, using reliable figures and cross-checking them with other sources, place the total between 5.1 and 6.3 million Jewish victims. And, of course, there were many millions more killed by the Nazis, including gypsies, Poles, Serbs, Czechs, Soviet civilians, mentally and physically handicapped patients, political prisoners, Soviet POWs, and the countless civilians in towns and villages throughout Europe who simply got in the way.\n\u201cWhile estimates vary, there is independent corroboration among historians, using different methods and different source materials. Indeed, the variation adds credibility to the figure of around six million, for it would be more likely that the numbers were \u201ccooked\u201d if they all came out the same. The fact that they do not come out the same but are within a reasonable range of error variance gives us assurance that somewhere between the earlier estimates of five million and more recent estimates of six million Jews died in the Holocaust. Whether it is five or six million is central to the victims, but from the point of view of whether the Holocaust took place it is irrelevant. Either figure represents a large number of people. In any case, it was not several hundred thousand, or \u201conly\u201d one or two million, as some deniers suggest\u2026\u201d (Michael Shermer & Alex Grobman, Denying History: Who Says the Holocaust Never Happened and Why Do They Say It?; [University of California Press, 2000], 174).\nThe Historical Facts of Jesus\u2019 Death on the Cross\nThe Old Testament prophets testified to Jesus\u2019 death and burial.\nIsaiah wrote almost 700 years before Jesus:\nJesus testified to His death on multiple occasions.\nWhen Jesus had finished saying all these things, he said to his disciples,\n\u201cAs you know, the Passover is two days away\u2014and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.\u201d\nWhile Jesus was in Bethany in the home of a man known as Simon the Leper,\na woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table.\nWhen the disciples saw this, they were indignant. \u201cWhy this waste?\u201d they asked.\n\u201cThis perfume could have been sold at a high price and the money given to the poor.\u201d\nAware of this, Jesus said to them, \u201cWhy are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing to me.\nThe poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me.\nWhen she poured this perfume on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.\nEyewitnesses to the death of Jesus on the cross:\nMary the mother of James and Joseph\nThe disciple whom Jesus loved (John 19:26)\nPeople who participated in the burial of Jesus\u2019 dead body:\nNon-Christian sources wrote of Jesus\u2019 death:\nJosephus (Jewish historian born around AD 37 and died AD 100) refers to Jesus\u2019 death (Antiquities 18.3.3).5The text reads, \u201cWhen Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men among us, had condemned him to the cross\u2026\u201d This passage, called the Testimonium Flavianum, is disputed, and its entirety should not be accepted as original to Josephus. However, the renowned scholars John P. Meier and Joseph Klausner accept the reference to Jesus\u2019 crucifixion as authentic.\nTacitus (AD 55-120), a renowned historian of ancient Rome wrote around AD 115 that Christ was \u201cexecuted\u201d by Pilate (Annals 15.44).6Muslims will sometimes reject the authenticity or relevance of Josephus and Tacitus. But are they able to give the historic evidence for their version of what happened?\nThe law/Torah requires that a matter be established by two or three witnesses (Deuteronomy 17:6-7). Therefore, the testimonies of Jesus, Old Testament prophets, Jesus\u2019 followers, non-Christian historians, etc. is true, legal and believable compared to the testimony of Muhammad (or the Quran), which was written nearly 600 years after the event. To put it simply, the Law of Moses makes it unlawful to believe the Quran.\nEven though it claims certainty, An-Nisa 4:157 is an historical claim that is far from historical certainty:\nYUSUF ALI: That they said (in boast), \u201cWe killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah\u201d;\u2014but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-\nFrom an historical point of view this claim is untrue. This claim was made hundreds of years after the event and has no historical support from the first century; none of Jesus\u2019 followers wrote or testified that Jesus only appeared to die on the cross. The Quran does not explain who died on the cross, it does not explain whether the disciples of Jesus were deceived, and it does not explain why Allah has allowed the world to be deceived (or did Allah deceive the world?) about this for hundreds of years. It is Muslims who conjecture; Muslims who have no certain knowledge; Muslims who are full of doubts about what actually happened during the crucifixion. All Christians (Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant) agree that Jesus died on the cross. To be sure, Christians don\u2019t agree about everything. There\u2019s a lot we disagree about. But one thing Christians all agree about is the death of Jesus on the cross. Even non-Christian historians 7\u201cOne of the most certain facts of history is that Jesus was crucified on orders of the Roman prefect of Judea, Pontius Pilate\u201d (Bart Ehrman, The Historical Jesus: Lecture Transcript and Course Guidebook, Part 2 of 2 [Chantilly, VA: The Teaching Company, 2000], 162). are in overwhelming agreement about the historicity of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross. 8This is significant because Muslims believe in a concept called Itmam al-hujjah (Arabic for \u201ccompletion of proof\u201d). Itmam al-hujah is the belief that religious truth has been completely clarified by a Messenger of Allah. When it comes to the death of Jesus on the cross \u2013 Jesus, the Scriptures, and history are clear. If Muhammad was a Messenger of Allah, then he most certainly did not bring clarity or \u201ccompletion of proof\u201d by denying the historic event of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross. Muhammad\u2019s lack of clarity and Muslim confusion about what really took place during the crucifixion is proof that Muhammad was not a Messenger of Allah.\nSerious problems arise when a person\u2019s beliefs about the world don\u2019t correspond to the real world. The story is told of a certain psychiatric patient who kept insisting that he was dead. Doctors tried and tried to persuade him that he was alive and not dead with little success. Finally, the decided to prove this by explaining to him scientifically that dead people don\u2019t bleed, only living people. After observing observing autopsies, hearing explanations of how the circulatory system works, and reading medical textbooks, the psychiatric patient finally confessed, \u201cAll right, I guess only living people bleed.\u201d\nAs soon as the patient admitted this truth, one of the doctors whipped out a pin and plunged it into the psychiatric patient\u2019s veins. The doctors started shouting, \u201cYou\u2019re bleeding. You\u2019re bleeding! What does that mean?\u201d\nThe psychiatric patient looked at his bleeding arm and exclaimed, \u201cDEAD PEOPLE REALLY DO BLEED!\u201d\nIn the psychiatric patient\u2019s mind: he was DEAD. But what was in his mind didn\u2019t at all correspond to reality.9This story is adapted from John Warwick Montgomery, \u201cDeath of the \u2018Death of God,\u2019\u201d in Suicide of Christian Theology, 122. Dr. Montgomery\u2019s point is that \u201cif you hold unsound presuppositions with sufficient tenacity, facts will make no difference to you at all.\u201d\nIslam has a similar problem. Its claim that Jesus did not die on the cross does not correspond to reality. It doesn\u2019t correspond to history.\nAn honest look at the facts leads to the conclusion that the Christian Scriptures are superior to the Quran because of the superior evidence available demonstrating the death of Jesus on the cross.\nThis is good news because Jesus not only died on the cross for sin and was buried. His tomb was empty on the third day. Jesus rose again from the dead.\nClick here, if you have questions, or if you would like to talk further.\nI invite you to embrace Christianity as the truth and only way of salvation. Jesus said, \u201cI told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins\u201d (John 8:24). Believe in Jesus, and be baptized for the forgiveness of your sins, and you can have certainty that you will inherit eternal life. This certainty is rooted in what God has done in the real world with respect to the death of Jesus on the cross, His burial, resurrection, and ascension into heaven.\nWatch The Quran and Jesus\u2019 Crucifixion\nWas Muhammad a true prophet?

Narrative, poetry and prose discourse.\nThe first half of the show (0-28:15), Tim introduces us to the three forms of literature in the Bible and how they are laid out using the analogy of a grocery store. The guys talk about the challenge of reading the Bible. Wishing that they had UN automatic translation headphones.\nIn the second half of the show (28:15-40:00), the guys talk about some of the inner psychological stories we tell ourselves. And how stories are a way to make sense of the world. Tim shares a quote from CS Lewis talking about the importance of reading expanding our worldview. Tim explains that many people expect the Bible to be a set of moral instructions, but actually the narrative structure of the Bible is much more open-ended.\nThe last part of the show (48:00-End), the guys discuss how our brains are hardwired for narratives and how the stories of the Bible work in our brains. Jon muses about maybe all of life and the Bible can be distilled down to asking \u201cWhat do I desire?\u201d and Tim breaks down the structure of Psalm 19.\nNext week the guys will dive into the Scriptures and talk about some examples of the different types of literary styles.\nThis show is designed to go with our new youtube video series, \u201cHow to Read the Bible\u201d you can check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUXJ8Owes8E\n\"An Experiment in Criticism\" by C.S.

        "raw_content": "The Rum & Raisin Theory Of Destiny\nI like rum & raisin ice cream. For some reason, not all ice cream shops sell rum & raisin ice cream. This glaring flaw in the universe has a silver lining: it led to the Rum & Raisin Theory Of Destiny.\nIt works like this. If I walk into an ice cream shop and they have rum & raisin ice cream, I buy some. If they don\u2019t have, then I leave the shop empty handed.\nEither way, Destiny is telling me something. \u201cToday is ice cream day\u201d, or \u201cToday is not ice cream day\u201d. I find its best to listen to Destiny when she speaks.\nThe Rum & Raisin Theory of Destiny can be applied to all areas of life, including love.\nNote this rule can only be applied to things of which there is a scarcity, i.e.: not vanilla ice cream.",

        "raw_content": "Rest in Peace, Tim Bosma\nTags: Ancaster Ontario, Bosma, Canada, Chief of police, Dodge Ram, Hamilton, Tim Bosma, Truck\nHaving followed the events over the past week and a bit with regards to the disappearance of Tim Bosma, the Hamilton man who went missing when he took two men out to test-drive the truck he had for sale, we were all tremendously saddened to hear that his body had been found, burned in a field.\nFor his poor wife and daughter, for his family and friends, the word \u2018grief\u2019 doesn\u2019t even come close to describing what they must be feeling. Shock, horror, dispirited, hope removed\u2026.all these and more are emotions which better describe their situation.\nHow can we fathom why someone would go and do such a nefarious act, all in order to steal a truck? There is no amount of justice which could assuage his family. They are now without a father, a husband, and a friend. All for a truck. For an object which I am sure they would gladly have given away ten times over to have Tim back safe and sound.\nI did not know Mr. Bosma, but I know so many people who are like him. Innocent souls, harmless human beings who go through their daily lives, walking softly, not hurting others. That is where this hurts the most\u2026.that an innocent human being can be so callously thrown away to steal a vehicle. It made this whole event feel so personal, and of course tragic. I looked at my own children, my wife, and myself, and realized that this could easily happen to us.\nFor me, this is awful. To not be able to trust one another and do something as trivial as exchange goods for money. To have to tell my children not to trust someone who shows up at your door to buy something you\u2019ve advertised for sale. Hell, I may as well tell them never to sell anything to anyone again\u2026throw it away or leave it at the side of the road with a sign saying \u2018free\u2019 on it.\nHopefully, this will be an extremely isolated event, and we can all learn to trust one another again. I have hope in humanity that this will come to pass. And I especially hope that the bastards that perpetrated this heinous crime pay to full extent of the law (such as it is in Canada), so that they never harm another innocent human being again.\nMy regards and sympathies go out to the Bosma family, their friends, their relatives, and their community. Now is a time for truth, a time for them to heal, and a time for their community to step up and take care of them.\nR.I.P Tim Bosma\u2026.I didn\u2019t know you, but I sure wish I could have.\nGisele Lalonde says:\nVery well said\u2026.people need to look within themselves rather than outside sources to satisfy/content their empty souls\u2026there is no need to take someone else\u2019s life away because there is such a void in your own\u2026it is indeed better to do without rather than disadvantage other innocent beings of their own quality of life\u2026",

        "raw_content": "You searched for David Lloyd George\nLLOYD GEORGE, DAVID (1863 - 1945), the first Earl Lloyd-George of Dwyfor, statesman\nName: David Lloyd george\nSpouse: Frances Louise Lloyd George (n\u00e9e Stevenson)\nSpouse: Margaret Lloyd George (n\u00e9e Owen)\nChild: Megan Arfon Lloyd George\nChild: Olwen Elizabeth Carey Evans (n\u00e9e Lloyd George)\nChild: Mair Eluned Lloyd George\nChild: Gwilym Lloyd George\nChild: Richard Lloyd George\nParent: Elisabeth George (n\u00e9e Lloyd)\nParent: William George\nBorn 5, New York Place, Manchester, 17 January 1863, son of William George, Tre-coed, Pembs., and Elizabeth daughter of David Lloyd of Llanystumdwy, Caerns. On his father's death in Pembrokeshire in 1864 his mother moved with her children to Llanystumdwy, to live with her brother, Richard Lloyd (1834 - 1917). Lloyd George was educated at the Llanystumdwy National School and passed the Preliminary Law Examination in 1877, taking his final with honours in 1884. Beginning practice as a solicitor in Cricieth in 1885 he gained a reputation as a fearless advocate and eloquent speaker, and came into prominence in 1888 as solicitor for the defence in what became known as the Llanfrothen Burial Case, an action which he won on appeal. In November 1888, he was adopted prospective Liberal candidate for the Caern. Boroughs; he was returned by a majority of 18, at the general election, 1890 (10 April), taking his seat on 17 April and making his maiden speech on 13 June. During his first period in Parliament his interests were mainly Welsh, especially disestablishment and land reform, and in 1894 he led a revolt of four Welsh members (himself, D. A. Thomas, J. Herbert Lewis and Francis Edwards) against the Rosebery Government because of its attitude on Welsh disestablishment. In Wales during the same period he campaigned for the Cymru Fydd movement and for the amalgamation of the two Liberal Federations, north and south.\nHe opposed and criticised the conduct of the South African War (1899-1902) in Parliament and in the country; attempting to address a Liberal meeting in Birmingham in December 1901, he was threatened by the mob and his life was in danger. He went through a period of great unpopularity, but was again returned in the 1900 election with an increased majority. Upon the introduction of Balfour's Education Bill in 1902 Lloyd George became the leader of the Radical and Nonconformist opposition to the measure, and in Wales he initiated the policy according to which the county councils refused to administer the Act. When the Liberals came into power in 1905 he became President of the Board of Trade with a seat in the Cabinet, showing exceptional administrative ability with constructive talent and a gift for mediation in industrial disputes. In October and November 1907, he succeeded in averting a stoppage on the railways. Amongst the important measures for which he was responsible at the Board of Trade were the Merchant Shipping Act, 1906; the Patents and Designs (Amendment) Act, 1907; and the Port of London Act, 1908.\nIn April 1908, when H. H. Asquith became Prime Minister, Lloyd George succeeded him as Chancellor of the Exchequer, and piloted through the House of Commons the Old Age Pensions Bill already introduced by Asquith. In 1909 he introduced his first Budget, designed to finance measures of social reform, and described as the most controversial budget of modern times. Its rejection by the Lords led to the passing of the Parliament Act in 1911. In August 1910, Lloyd George made an unsuccessful attempt to form a coalition of Liberals and Conservatives. On 4 May 1911, he introduced a National Insurance Bill, which included both health and unemployment insurance and which received the Royal Assent in December of the same year. In the 1911 Budget payment of members of Parliament was introduced. In a speech at the Mansion House on 21 July in that year Lloyd George warned Germany that Britain would not tolerate aggression in Morocco, a speech for which the Kaiser demanded his dismissal. On 29 June 1912, he launched his campaign for land reform, which included the setting up of a Land Enquiry Committee. In the same year a Select Committee of the House of Commons was set up to investigate allegations made respecting certain Ministers, including Lloyd George, in connection with share holdings in the American Marconi Co. All the persons involved were acquitted of acting otherwise than in good faith.\nWhen war with Germany was declared in August 1914, Lloyd George as Chancellor of the Exchequer had the task of stabilising the country's finances in difficult circumstances. In May 1915, on the formation of the first Coalition Government, he became Minister of Munitions. On the death of Lord Kitchener, Secretary for War, in May 1916, Lloyd George was appointed his successor. In December 1916 Asquith resigned and Lloyd George became Prime Minister. One of the most important acts of his Premiership during the war years was the establishment of unity of command of the allied forces. In 1918, after the Armistice, he appealed to the country and was returned to power as head of the Coalition Govt. with a majority of 345 over all other parties. On 18 January 1919, the Peace Conference opened, with Lloyd George as one of its three most prominent figures. In December 1921 he succeeded in carrying the Irish Treaty through after prolonged negotiations. In October 1922 the Conservative members of the Coalition Government resigned which made it impossible to carry on the Coalition, and Lloyd George resigned. Although he remained politically active for some years, he never again held office. In 1926 he set in train the Liberal Industrial Enquiry. In January 1934, in a speech at Bangor, he outlined his programme for re-establishing national prosperity-the \u2018New Deal\u2019 policy-to be carried out by the Council of Action. From 1933 to 1936 he wrote his War Memoirs : his The truth about the peace treaties was published in 1938. In August 1936, he visited Germany and met Hitler. When war came in 1939 he took no part in its direction but remained a member of the House of Commons till January 1945, when he resigned his seat and was granted an earldom, taking as his titles Earl Lloyd-George of Dwyfor and Viscount Gwynedd. He was given the Order of Merit in 1919 and the L\u00e9gion d'honneur in 1920. He was Constable of Caernarfon castle from 1908; hon. LL.D. (Wales) 1908, hon. Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford, 1910, hon. D.C.L., Oxford, and hon. LL.D. of Edinburgh, 1918, Sheffield, 1919, Birmingham, 1921. In 1944 he had come to his home, Ty Newydd, in Llanystumdwy, where he died 26 March 1945. He was buried according to his own wishes in the wooded slope above the river Dwyfor near his home.\nHe married (1), 24 January 1888, Margaret (died 20 January 1941) daughter of Richard and Mary Owen of Mynydd Ednyfed, Cricieth. They had five children: Richard, (1889 - 1968), Mair Eluned (1890 - 1907), Olwen Elizabeth (1892 - 1990) (who m. Sir Thomas John Carey Evans), Gwilym (1894 - 1967), and Megan (1902 - 1966), (2) 23 October 1943, Frances Louise, daughter of John Stevenson of Wallington, Surrey, his long-serving personal assistant and companion.\nMalcolm Thomson and Frances Countess Lloyd-George, David Lloyd George.

Michelle Williams has won 3 grammys as a Destiny\u2019s Child member!!!!!!!! Michelle Williams is a shareholder in the Chicago Sky, while Keyshia is married to a bench warmer (have we EVER seen Daniel Gibson on the court????). Michelle Williams has had 2 #1 Gospel selling albums (working with Mary Mary, Pastor Shirley Caesar, BeBe Winans, and Kirk Franklin), appeared in #1 Broadway plays (Aida, The Color Purple (hired by Oprah herself), Chicago, and now Fela!)!!!!!!!! Keyshia Cole is talented, and has had success (5 albums, 2 reality shows, numerous BET & Grammy nominations), but to throw shade @ Michelle is just wrong. Michelle is a sweetheart, and has a humble spirit, but her style is mostly gospel, and she\u2019s never hidden that. Michelle Williams is a child of Destiny, while Keyshia is Frankie\u2019s child\u2026. There\u2019s no comparison. Michelle know what it means to headline a world tour (yes as a member of DC), and Keyshia doesn\u2019t (she\u2019s usually JUST an opening act). If Keyshia Cole was all that she would be PERFORMING at the SuperBowl, not a home WATCHING IT.\nladysabrina on February 6, 2013 at 11:23 am said:\nWoo hoooo!\nsherrie on February 5, 2013 at 7:42 pm said:\nI didn\u2019t know singers hate on other singers\u2026Keyshia should be ashamed of herself To be honest, I don\u2019t think Keyshia can sing all that great and her stage performance is WACK. I really think that she wished it was her on that stage\u2026.maybe next time.\njoey on February 5, 2013 at 7:27 pm said:\nwell you guys know where keyshia comes from and that is how she acts, she is ghetto, and she is uneducated, so you can kind of expect this from someone from her kind of background, I\u2019m a fan of keyshia\u2019 cole, but this is what you get from a woman who really has never had anything in her life,\nand look at her life now still today, she is still not happy with her husband, or her family situation.\nso we have to look at where she comes, from it should not be a surprise how she acts, or behaves\nlets just pray for her to get better,,, she needs to thank GOd for her career, and be a little bit more humble. GOD BLESS YOU!\nrealwoman on February 5, 2013 at 6:55 pm said:\nI think that Keyshia, Should have kept her comments to herself. She really opened a can of worms on this one. She really need to watch what she say about people, Because it\u2019s not only going to tarnish her career down the line, But it\u2019s going to make people look at her in a different way. I think that if she has any class what soever, She should give Michelle an Apology. I think that Michelle deserves that much! Keyshia, you really need to grow up sweetheart! You need to learn that you don\u2019t throw stones at glass houses honey, And that if you\u2019re willing to dish out the criticism, You should be able to except what\u2019s coming afterwards.\nSCTravelRN on February 5, 2013 at 6:35 pm said:\nVery bad look, Keyshia.

Some things really are better left unsaid.\nNat on February 5, 2013 at 5:11 pm said:\nI\u2019m with Keyshia on this one. Michelle lucked up on fame. She is WACK!!!\nKeyshia Cole sounds like S**T!!!!!!!!!!! Her rendition of \u201cEyes on the sparrow\u201d at City of Refuge (the video is on YouTube) proves it!!!!!!! Michelle may not be as provocative or mainstream as Beyonce or Kelly, but she has a solid reputation in Gospel music!!!!!!!!!\nI THOUGHT MICHELLE DID A GREAT JOB. KEEP YOUR HATER COMMENTS TO YOUR SELF. ITS NOT A GOOD LOOK. I GUESS YOU WISH YOU WHERE THE ONE ON THE STAGE WITH BEYOUNCE.\nI agree with you 100%!!!!!!!!! If Keyshia applied that same energy into her family AND her career, then Frankie would not have been on Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, and Neffe wouldn\u2019t have dissed Keyshia in her book!!!!!!!! I use to feel sorry for Keyshia cause of all she\u2019s been through, but NOW, Keyshia\u2019s just another loser trying to remain relevant!\nto sassy, your right, her comments really should have not been published period, Michelle williams\nis a very talented young lady, and keyshia cole if very Un-educated and very Ignorant, so this is where she comes from ,,, she came from Ignorance, but God said he wouldnt keep his people Ignorant, but Ms. Cole, should have left that alone,, See when you come from a background like Keyshia cole who has never had anything, this is what happens, you see she is still not happy with her husband or her family situation, she still is a very Emotionally damaged young woman, spiritually damaged, so this is what you get, when someone like this makes comments, that are Ignorant, and had no place for this website. When Are Black women going to learn, when you put down another black woman you basically putting yourself down. because all of us women of color suffer the same indignities. everyday of our lives\u2026 lets keep it real ladies.\nLisa on February 5, 2013 at 11:34 am said:\nThis is the same person that said black people are always talking bad about her. What did she just do to Michelle?\nMichelle. A true class act who can sing Gospel, R&B, Pop, Rock and smooth jazz. Lets not forget she can sing A capella.\nKeyshia- hood rat howling at the moon. No class. Sit down and shut up. You will NEVER reach Michelle\u2019s status.\nsfloyd2@umc.edu on February 5, 2013 at 8:45 am said:\nKeyshia get some class, Michelle look to the hill which come your help your help from the Lord. Keyshia come a dime of dozen look where she came from.\nThis from a woman who\u2019s momma is FRANKIE???? smh\ndtown on February 5, 2013 at 8:07 am said:\nI wish some people would think before they put things out there on social media. I am a Keyshia fan and I\u2019m kinda surprised by her comments. Her stage presence isn\u2019t that great either, so she really should talk to be honest. Some would say she is horrible singing live. Its in poor taste to do this. Some things you just should keep to yourself!!\nLinda on February 5, 2013 at 7:43 am said:\nAs a performer, you shouldn\u2019t put out bad words about others, you never know when your show won\u2019t be up to par.

The Hawaiian native then transferred to Hawaii to be closer to his family.\nHe made the successful switch to safety and made some sacrifices along the way, including driving 200 miles each way initially to juggle family time along with classes and football.\n\u201cIt was very tough to do, but it was a sacrifice I was willing to make,\u201d Silva said.\nAnother sacrifice Silva made was switching to safety, knowing it was his quickest way to the field. Once he made the switch, Silva worked diligently to perfect his craft. He\u2019s done that and is on the verge of being selected by a NFL club.\n\u201cI saw playing safety as a better fit for me,\u201d he said. \"I was happy with my college career. Things seemed to start out pretty well and just got better from there.\u201d\nIn his two years as a starter for the Warriors, Silva turned himself into a ball hawking safety that plays sideline to sideline.\n\u201cGoing to the ball well is one of my strengths,\u201d added Silva. \u201cI love to play this game and I love to be in on every play.\u201d\nIf you watch Hawaii play, you come away using one word to describe Silva. That\u2019s playmaker. Silva plays the run well and plays the pass just as effectively, picking off 14 passes the past two seasons, something that starting out as a quarterback has helped him do.\n\u201cI loved being a quarterback, but I have taken some of what I learned there over to the defensive side of the ball,\u201d said Silva. \u201cIt\u2019s helped me understand route combinations better and read the quarterbacks eyes.\u201d\nYou also come away from a Hawaii game drawing a comparison of Silva to the Pittsburgh Steelers' Troy Polamalu.\nWhile Silva may not be as big or fast as Polamalu, there are a ton of similarities in the way the approach the game. Starting with being from Samoan descent and even wearing Polamalu\u2019s No. 43, Silva strives to be as good as Polamalu currently is.\nOn the field, both guys fly to the ball and are smart players. When their teams need a play made on defense, they are usually the guys to get it done.\n\u201cIf I modeled my game after anyone, I\u2019d say it would be Polamalu,\u201d said Silva. \u201cHe\u2019s the best and I think we do some similar things on the field, but it\u2019s an honor just to be mentioned with a guy like that.\u201d\nSilva may get the chance one day to be on the same field as Polamalu.\nNo team can have too many play makers on the defensive side of the ball, and Silva fits that bill.\nSilva is projected to go in the middle rounds of the draft, but could increase his stock during his pro day on March 31. He\u2019s currently been training in Arizona for the past six weeks working on his speed.\n\u201cI\u2019m focused and have been working hard,\u201d added Silva. \u201cI\u2019d like to get my 40 time into the 4.4 range and then have an impressive pro day.\u201d\nOne thing is for sure, if Silva has dedicated himself to a goal, he likely will accomplish it.\nThe next step is determining if there will be football to play in the upcoming year, but Silva hasn\u2019t let that bother him.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no looking at that,\u201d said Silva. \u201cI am focused on what I have to do to achieve a dream. I don\u2019t worry about something that\u2019s not in my hands, I just have to worry about the things I can control.\u201d\nThis much is certain. We know Silva will go the extra mile to achieve his dream.",

        "title": "New York State Introduces New Legislation about Sexual Harassment",
        "raw_content": "On October 9th, New York\u2019s new Sexual Harassment Policy came into effect for employers of all sizes. With it, comes some serious regulations that they must abide by. These rules include the following: All employers must post as of September 6th, 2019, a poster about anti-sexual harassment rights and responsibilities, in English and Spanish. In addition, they must provide a fact sheet to all current and new employees or include the policy in their handbooks.\nThese policies must include rules about:\nProhibiting sexual harassment and have information about the state and federal provisions\nInclude a standard complaint form and a procedure to investigate all complaints\nState clearly that sexual harassment is considered employee misconduct and sanctions will be levied as such to the accused and anyone who is a supervisory role that could have prevented it\nClearly state any retaliation against a victim\u2019s testimony is unlawful[1]\nOn top of this, beginning October 9th, all employers regardless of size must provide sexual harassment training annually. In April 2019, any company of 15 or more employees must give new full or part time workers within 90 days of hire this harassment training. This training does not have to take place in the office, but it does need to be interactive according to the NYC Commission on Human Rights, who are making said module.\nThis new legislation means that employers now must pay for the training in order to comply with the new regulations. This is a great opportunity to review your harassment policies. Your employees should understand what their rights are and how they are protected under the new regulations.\n[1] https://www.law.com/newyorklawjournal/2018/08/16/five-things-employers-must-know-about-nys-new-anti-sexual-harassment-laws/",

        "title": "Highlights from an Interview with Masaaki Imai \u2013 Gemba Academy",
        "raw_content": "Highlights from an Interview with Masaaki Imai\nI came across a January 28, 2005 interview with Masaaki Imai by Gita Piramal, Managing Editor of The Smart Manager, a bi-monthly Indian business management magazine. It is titled The father of Kaizen speaks! and some good questions are posed and the answers are insightful.\nThe title is catchy but incorrect. Imai is not the father of kaizen. He is the author of Kaizen and Gemba Kaizen and the founder of Kaizen Institute. Nor is the following statement from the article, in any way, a reflection of reality:\n\u201cToyota, the outstandingly successful Japanese carmaker, became one of his most committed followers.\u201d Prof. Imai observed the kaizen phenomena at Toyota and other companies in Japan and published his book on the subject in 1986. At Toyota Gemba Kaizen was active decades before that.\nWho is the father of kaizen? That is a separate discussion but let\u2019s just say it was a multi-decade, team effort. The contributors range from Frederick Taylor to Lillian & Frank Gilbreth to Henry Ford to those who formulated Training Within Industry in the early 1940s as part of the war effort, to Sakichi Toyoda, Edwards Deming, Taiichi Ohno, and Shigeo Shingo.\nMasaaki Imai, Norman Bodek, James Womack, and Jeffrey Liker have helped promote and popularize kaizen, Lean manufacturing and Toyota Production System outside of Japan over the past two decades through their work in writing, speaking and publishing.\nImai continues his contribution in this article. Highlights include:\nOn the Sufficiency of Kaizen to Make Big Changes\nWhen asked whether kaizen, or small changes, can be enough when big change is needed in an organization, Imai responds \u201cKaizen is the means to achieve a corporate strategy, not the strategy\u201d and that \u201cThe most important challenge facing top management today\u2026 [ ] \u2026is to establish a target about where they want to take the company in the next two, five and ten years.\u201d\nImai goes on to say that in manufacturing there are two systems, batch & queue (traditional manufacturing) and \u201cJust in Time\u201d or Toyota Production System (Lean manufacturing) and that the big change companies must make to survive is the change from batch to JIT.\nOn Wny Batch Manufacturing is Bad\n\u201cThe batch production system, to which almost 99.9 per cent of all manufacturing companies subscribe, is destined to perish\u201d says Imai, mainly because it is extremely difficult to build in quality and respond to a variety of customer requirements on-demand.\nIn talking about the importance of knowing what the customer wants in order to be able to deliver products through Just In Time production, Imai redefines the role of marketing:\n\u201cThe customer may not know that she wants a product. The inventor has to estimate the market for it. It is the role of marketing to define the product and the role of production to make the product. Well, I think it is the other way round. The role of marketing is to dig out the potential or hidden requirement that the market has.\u201d\nThe interviewer spends considerable space on the issue of China. In response to the question of China\u2019s \u201cefficiency\u201d Imai says that this is a false perception. In summary Imai he says that China is low-cost but not efficient. The appearance of efficiency has been given to them by the Japanese technology and transfer of quality control and production management knowledge.\nOn the Decline of the Supremacy of Japanese Business\nImai says that he Japanese model is still superior but that external circumstances such as government and market regulation, population demographics, and woes in the financial sector have made Japan\u2019s economy less functional in spite of superior management systems, particularly in manufacturing.\nOn Indian Management Practices\nWhen asked about his views on Indian management practices, Imai responds:\n\u201cThey are under the impression that real knowledge can be gained only by reading books and attending lectures. How often do they actually roll up their sleeves and get into some action?\u201d\n\u201cThey really need to make more effort [at getting into the thick of action]. They have immense knowledge, but what they lack is wisdom that comes by doing things yourself.\u201d\nThese words ring particularly true. It is not just Indian management but managers everywhere who need to \u201cgo see\u201d to verify what they think they know and to roll up their sleeves and get into the thick of things on their Gemba.\nrammohun\nthisis RAMMOHUN FROM USA>Istudied us& ukin1974,return back indiato work.\niread yu article. very good.

She and her sister, Saint Anatolia were forced into arranged marriages with two pagan noblemen. However, both saints wished to devote themselves to God and did not want to marry. When they refused, their suiters approached the authorities and denounced them as Christians. The Roman Emperor of the time, Decius, was persecuting Christians and the sisters were seized and put under house arrest. They tried to break the sister\u2019s faith and coerce them to marry. The sisters did not weaken in faith and sold all their belongings and gave their money to the poor though they were still under house arrest. They converted to Christianity, both the servants and the guards who attended them. The two women were martyred for their faith, Anatolia first and then Victoria. Saint Victoria was stabbed through the heart which was what her rejected suitor, Eugenius requested.",

        "title": "The Fool on the Hill: Introducing the Winter Palace",
        "raw_content": "I started this section of my blog developing ideas about a really ambitious home I wanted to build. I eventually came to the conclusion that that first design was either too expensive or, if done cheaply, too environmentally unfriendly. So I developed a second, simpler design which still had a lot of interesting features. It was always obvious that it was going to be hard getting either design past planning permission. It was also always obvious that while I might be able to live in a vestigial shelter in the woods in summer, that wasn't going to be possible in winter. So there had to be a plan B; a plan B that could be quickly and inexpensively implemented to provide cosy and weatherproof shelter for the winter, and that that plan B would have to be implemented if I didn't have planning permission by midsummer.\nIt's midsummer. I don't have planning permission. It's time for plan B.\nI've been developing ideas for plan B for as long as I've been working on the croft house designs. The original idea was to build a tiny Tardis like structure, based on what I've learned from yacht cabins - the smallest possible space in which I could live and stay warm. Later, I considered a log cabin - which would be less than ten feet square - built in the space underneath the Summer Palace. Both of these are still possibilities, but about six weeks ago, I made an interesting discovery.\nThis farm is called Standingstone. It's part of the old monastic grange of Hazelfield, and Anglian name which means 'stony field'. The grange of Hazelfield stands within the vicinity of the village of Auchencairn, a Gaelic which means 'stony field'. You might be excused for noticing a thread here. The fields hereabouts, while fertile, are extremely stony; the whole valley is the terminal moraine of a long-vanished glacier. So for three thousand years people hereabouts have been clearing the larger stones off the ploughland, and dumping them in land which isn't fit for ploughing.\nAnd one of the places people have been dumping stones for generations is in my wood; that's partly, I suspect, why there is a wood here now. It was always wet land - probably a willow carr - on the banks of the burn, not fit for ploughing. So my predecessors have dumped stones in many places through the wood; but in one particular place on the eastern edge of the wood I found a huge pile, some seven metres long, five wide and one high, with an almost flat top. It's a perfect, self draining, foundation for a small building. I've spent some time tidying it up and adding to it - about seven cubic metres of stone we've picked off the ploughland this year.\nGiven a foundation like that it's obvious that a bigger, more comfortable cabin can be built - still in the wood, still discreetly sheltered, but neither tardis-like nor minimalistic. So I plan to make use of that seven by five metre platform to build a seven by five metre dwelling. I plan straw bale walls, possibly using the straw from my own barley. I plan a wooden floor and roof largely using wood from my own trees. The straw bale walls will be half a metre thick, so the internal space I'll be left with is smaller - about four metres (13 feet) by six and a half (21 feet). Of that, the western two metres will have a sleeping loft over a small kitchen and a small bathroom. Almost in the centre - between the kitchen and the living area, beside the ladder up to the sleeping loft - will be a wood fired cooker with a back boiler to heat water. The remaining four metre square area will be a multi-use eating, working, and entertaining space - a living room, in fact. The whole east end of the building will be mostly glass, facing out onto my own meadow.\nSo, this is nothing like as ambitious or interesting a structure as either 'sousterran' or 'singlespace' designs. I still intend to try to get planning permission for something more interesting (and a bit larger). But the cabin in the woods means I'm no longer under time pressure; planning permission is off the critical path.\nOne question remains: if I can't get planning permission for what I really want to build, how can I get planning permission for the Winter Palace? The answer is I can't, and I'm not even going to seek it. The winter palace won't be visible from anyone else's property. As a structure, it's justifiable either as a tool store or as a wood shed, neither of which I'd need planning permission for. If in the end the planners require me to pull it down, I can disassemble it with small loss.\nAs I've said, I've already started to level the foundation. Alex and I will start to mill timber for the winter palace in the next couple of weeks. I plan to have a 'barn raising' party to put it up, which will be either on the weekend of 20th-21st August or the 17th-18th September, depending partly on when I can get straw. Pencil those dates in your diary now!",

        "raw_content": "Fearing God produces moral courage, undermines atheist dictatorships\n\u201cThe midwives of the Hebrews, fearing God, refused to do as Pharaoh had commanded; they let the Hebrew boys live.\u201d\n-Exodus 1\n\u201cFear of God is necessary to make a society of moral individuals. Of course there are moral atheists, just as there are moral pagans, and moral individuals in even the worst cultures. But you cannot build a good world with a handful of individuals who happen to be good people. You need a universal moral code from a universal God Who is the source of that moral code, and this God must judge all people accordingly. Consequently, \u201cfear of God\u201d is as inevitable as it is necessary. If God judges how moral we are, of course there will be a fear of Him \u2013 just as there is of a human judge. Conversely, if God does not judge people, there is no reason to fear Him.\nIn our time, many people invoke the commandment to love God but ignore or even disparage the commandment to fear God. While many God-believers will engage in heroic self-sacrifice out of love of God, most God-believers are moral on a day-to-day basis because they believe they will be judged by God. That\u2019s why, for example, in traditional Western societies, the finest people were routinely described as \u201cGod-fearing,\u201d not \u201cGod-loving\u201d\nThis fear is what gave the midwives [of the Hebrews in Egypt] the strength to carry out what is, as far as we know, the first recorded act of civil disobedience in history. Indeed, fear of God explains why a disproportionately high number of dissidents in totalitarian societies have been believers in God. When I visited the Soviet Union in 1969, I smuggled out a Soviet Jewish dissident song whose lyrics included the words: \u201cI fear no one except God, the only one\u201d (\u201cNye byusa nikovo krome boga odnavo\u201d).\nThose words were all the more remarkable in that the vast majority of Soviet Jewish dissidents were not religious. But they understood the simple moral and logical fact that if one \u201cfears no one except God,\u201d one can muster the courage not to fear a totalitarian state. And these simple words also explain why totalitarian states like the Soviet Union so feared and fought against belief in God. Because belief in God posits there is something higher than Party, it constitutes a fatal threat to secular totalitarian societies. It\u2019s why North Koreans have been horribly punished for owning a Bible.\u201d\n-Dennis Prager, The Rational Bible: Exodus\nfound in atheists, dennis prager, exodus, morality",

How do I get something off this physical carrier? How does this thing connect to that thing?). As 2018 begins, I feel like this year will be much the same. One of my goals this year is to actively take the time to learn more. It has been very easy to get swept up in everyday work over the last six months, so this year I plan on setting aside some dedicated time for learning.\nI joined the ALIA PD Scheme this time last year and successfully completed my first year of compliance at the end of June. Based on financial year, I admittedly have not taken the time to reflect on the last six months so my first goal is to catch up on tracking my PD and plan the next five months to complete my second year of the scheme.\nWith that in mind, here are some things I want to learn in 2018:\nPython: this has been at the top of my \"to do\" list for a while and I am increasingly finding myself in situations where I believe it could be quite useful. I have no interest in becoming a software developer, but this coding language has become quite popular with working professionals who are using programming skills to get better at their jobs. I plan on starting with Automate The Boring Stuff With Python and go from there.\nPublic speaking: I have mentioned previously that this has not always been a strong point for me. I had several opportunities to present last year, which includes to students, to industry as well as developing and running a workshop for the first time. I am also looking forward to taking part in Australasia Preserves in Melbourne next month. This is not so much what I want to learn, more an area I would like to get more practice and experience.\nWriting: GLAM Blog Club has provided a great opportunity to keep me active in writing something at least once a month for the past 12 months. While I plan on continuing that, I also want to start exploring other avenues. I had my first attempt at submitting an abstract to a conference last year. While unsuccessful, my plan is to build on that and keep trying.\nThis post is my contribution to the GLAM Blog Club January theme: 'What I want to learn in the year ahead'.",

        "title": "Should I Retire In Sun City, Arizona? | Storage Solutions Blog",
        "raw_content": "Should I Retire In Sun City, Arizona?\nPosted by Storage Solutions May 29, 2018 in Life Style\nIt\u2019s the moment you\u2019ve been working towards for decades. For many who have reached retirement, it can be both frightening and exciting. On the one hand, you\u2019re about to leave behind a place you spent most of your adult life. On the other side, you\u2019re about to embark on a new chapter in your life with plenty of time to focus on those things you\u2019ve been missing.\nIf you\u2019re like many retirees, no longer needing to live near your place of employment has opened a world of new possibilities. Of course, the spot you choose should be conducive to your new list of wants and needs. Some of the most common considerations are affordability (reasonable real estate prices, low taxes, and accessibility), weather, and businesses, such as climate controlled storage units, craft and hobby shops, grocery stores, as well as many other services.\nSun City is an unincorporated, census-designated place located in Maricopa County. The master-planned community was initially developed with five home plans, with the first homes hitting the market on January 1, 1960. Developer Del E. Webb only expected approximately 1,000 people or so to attend the opening day. Nevertheless, 100,000 people descended upon Sun City. The turnout was big enough that Time magazine featured the event as its cover story.\nAmenities That Make Sun City a Boomers Paradise\nThe thing to know going in is that Sun City was the first of many communities Webb developed explicitly for retirees. With that said, everything from housing design, real estate prices, entertainment options, weather, as well as other aspects were considered with that in mind. Sun City is called \u201cThe Original Fun City\u201d for a reason. Below is a list of some reasons Sun City is an excellent choice.\n1. Reasonable Cost of Living\nOne of the benefits of living in an unincorporated area is the fact that there are no public schools in Sun City, which means there is no reason to pay school taxes. With that said, Sun City is said to have some of the lowest taxes in the United States, with the average resident only paying around $1,050 a year on a single-family home valued at $200,000. Additionally, sales tax is at 6.30 percent, with no tax on food items. This means local shops can sell for less than shops in neighboring cities that have been incorporated.\n2. Affordable Real Estate\nToday, Sun City has approximately 16,900 homes featuring around 120 different floor plans. In addition to that, properties in Sun City offer four types of living options that include single family homes, patio homes, garden apartments, and duplexes. For the most part, you can find homes for sale starting at $70,000, while there are more luxurious models that price at around $700,000. Nevertheless, 75 percent of the houses never exceed $300,000.\n3. It Feels Like a Resort\nThe developers have spent over $125 million over the years upgrading and adding amenities such as four recreation centers, a state-of-the-art 30-lane bowling alley, nine restaurants, nine golf courses, a private library with over 40,000 selections, and much more. Between the recreation centers are numerous fields and courts for various sports that include 27 tennis courts, 14 bocce courts, six swimming pools, just to name a few. When you want to take a break from rigorous activities, enjoy downtime at the many social clubs and entertainment venues.\n4. Everything You Need Is Only Minutes Away\nSun City enjoys being in nearby proximity with Phoenix, which is only 30 minutes away. Then you have Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport only 45 minutes away. When you decide you need something more to do outside of Sun City, there is Arrowhead Mall with all sorts of great shopping and dining options, only a 20-minute drive away. Additionally, the Phoenix area provides you with professionally ran secure storage units in the event you have extra belongings you would rather not bring to your new home. And it goes without saying that living within the Greater Phoenix Metropolitan Area allows you easy access to many other important amenities such as good hospitals, medical clinics, as well as anything you could possibly want and need.\nIn 2018, Forbes magazine listed Sun City as one of the top 25 places to retire, with the cost of living 9 percent below the national average. So if you\u2019re in search of the perfect retirement city, Sun City should definitely be at the top of your list. With cities like Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and popular attractions such as the Grand Canyon National Park only a few hours drive away, this affordable little community is a perfect choice. But don\u2019t take our word for it. Come on down and check it out for yourself.",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m still hopeful. However, the agreements that I\u2019m most hopeful about are not those being carved out (or carved up) by large national governments in Copenhagen. I\u2019m most hopeful about the agreements that result from the collaboration between purpose driven companies and their business networks (suppliers, manufacturers, retailers, partners, and most importantly customers). When it comes to sustainability, these agreements are often facilitated by state, provincial, and municipal governments, and are ultimately driven by end customers. They form the basis of new environmental standards and best practices that have support from the ground up. They enable innovation and create new market opportunity.\nTwo such efforts that I see in the market are the Sustainability Consortium and the Cradle-to-Cradle System Design Framework.\nBoth efforts are still in their early stages. In my opinion, both:\n\u2022 Seem to be taking a whole systems approach to solving the significant environmental challenges that we face\n\u2022 Are innovation engines that will drive economic growth\nHere is my current understanding of these two initiatives.\nThe Cradle-to-Cradle Systems Design Framework (C2C)\nImagine using a product and knowing, with confidence, that it will have a positive impact on the world around you, either while you are using it, and/or when you are finished with it.\nC2C is a set of frame conditions that can be plugged into the design of any system. Systems can encompass products, buildings, processes, companies, business networks, cities, countries, and even the planet.\nThe basic tenants of C2C in a nutshell seem to be:\n1. All materials can be broken down into three categories, technical nutrients, biological nutrients, and un-marketables. Design systems (e.g. products) so that there are no un-marketables.\n2. Do not mix technical nutrients with biological nutrients, and design their flows so that you can upcycle components, not just recycle them. For technical nutrients, this creates the concept of a reverse supply chain. For biological nutrients, waste from one use should equal food for another.\n3. Design systems to optimize economics, ecology, and equity, not just balance them against each other.\n4. Don\u2019t just be less bad, be more good. Move beyond being efficient to being effective and even celebrate abundance.\n\u201cConsider the cherry tree. Each spring it makes thousands of blossoms, which then fall in piles to the ground-not very efficient. But the fallen blossoms become food for other living things. The tree\u2019s abundance of blossoms is both safe and useful, contributing to the health of a thriving, interdependent system. And the tree spreads multiple positive effects-making oxygen, transpiring water, creating habitat, and more.\u201d \u2013 MBDC Website\nThink biomicry.\n\u201cCradle to Cradle(SM) Design mirrors the healthy, regenerative productivity of nature, and thereby creates industry that is continuously improving and sustaining life and growth. \u201d \u2013 MBDC Website\n5. There is no such thing as a bad chemical in absolute terms, but it\u2019s the use context of a chemical that makes it \u2018good\u2019 or \u2018bad\u2019.\n6. In practical terms we have nearly infinite energy (from the sun), we just need to learn how to efficiently harness it for use.\n7. All life (all species) is important and all members of a species are equal (e.g. all people on the planet are equal).\n8. The C2C framework has specific detailed criteria for materials (including toxicity in context), reutilization, energy, water, and social responsibility.\nThe Cradle-to-Cradle Framework is an innovation engine that essentially redefines quality. If the first industrial revolution brought us the 18th century design paradigm for the way industry is currently structured, \u2018Industry 2.0\u2019, the C2C design paradigm could bring us Industry 3.0. See the MBDC website for more details. (It\u2019s conventional wisdom in the software industry that a product doesn\u2019t really get it right until version 3.0 :)).\nThe C2C framework has been implemented by major companies such as Aveda, Allied, Cabot, Eastman, Herman Miller, Nike, and the US Postal Service. Thought leading governmental agencies in the NL, China, and California have been inspired by the Cradle to Cradle Systems Design Framework (see specifically CA\u2019s Benign by Design and Green Chemistry Initiative) .\nThe Cradle-to-Cradle Framework, like the Sustainability Index, is still in the early stages, and there is significant room for further innovation. I\u2019m hopeful.\nSix page C2C summary\nIntelligent Product Systems (more depth)\nShort Videos @TED or @Walmart\nImagine walking into a store, and with single synapse clarity understanding just how sustainable any given product on the shelf really is. That\u2019s ultimately what the Sustainability Consortium could offer the end consumer. In the process it could unleash new efficiencies, and wide reaching innovation within the global supply chain.\nThe Sustainability Consortium was initially incubated by Walmart in conjunction with their major partners as part of their supply chain visibility initiatives. Since it\u2019s inception, an impressive list of global companies have become involved with the innovation of this emerging standard. Walmart\u2019s ecosystem alone is the size of a national government with a constituency consisting of 100,000 suppliers, and hundreds of millions of customers. Walmart\u2019s new mission is \u2018Saving people money so that they can live better\u2019.\nTreehugger\u2019s POV\nHuffinton\u2019s POV\nSustainability Index Fact Sheet\nThe companies that participate in the above initiatives are purpose driven companies, and they cater to purpose driven customers. This gives me hope. I believe that these companies understand the long term benefits of optimizing economics, ecology, and equity (social), and not sacrificing one at the expense of the other.\nIn my opinion, many of the principals behind these two initiatives also map nicely to SAP\u2019s sustainability strategy. Since I work for SAP, this gives me hope and a strong purpose in my daily work. SAP powers companies representing about half the world\u2019s GDP. I\u2019m hopeful that SAP will be a leader that will play a key role in the enablement of Industry 3.0.\nBack to Copenhagen. Who knows, perhaps someday, the national governments of the world will agree to treat all human beings equally when it comes to green house gas emissions, and choose sensible targets. An agreement at this level would make sustained life easier, and the road ahead clearer for all of us. It\u2019s always nice when national and supra-national governmental organizations can help create the right conditions for positive change. However, don\u2019t hold your breath in protest waiting for it to happen this year. It will take a long time. (If you do hold your breath however, take solace in the fact that you\u2019re emitting less CO2. ;-))\nFor now, survive and thrive by taking control of those things in your immediate sphere of influence. Keep working diligently at the individual, company, and sub-national government levels to facilitate the survival of all species, and build Industry 3.0 in the process.\nboth of these concepts, that I had heard of but was not 100% familiar with their definition.\nPersonally, I think change has to be driven through \u201cpeople\u2019s wallets\u201d. In my neighborhood, they just introduced recyling bins, allowing people to reduce the size of their regular garbage bin, and saving money in the process. As the price difference is ridiculously low, I don\u2019t see anybody around me with a smaller bin.\nGas is very expensive in Europe and people drive smaller cars (ok, there also is no parking :-)).\nAlso, in Germany, 15 years ago, stores were already required to recylce any product packaging that they sold product is. If something you buy comes in a big box, you can leave the box directly in the store. This achieved the following: many products now come in no or very light packaging. This is a direct result of the stores having to pay for the recycling\u2026you get what I am saying. We need this here in the US. Why don\u2019t we have it?",

The reader will be able to apply the discussed models and methods to real problems with the necessary confidence and the awareness of potential difficulties that may arise in practice. This book is self-contained in the sense that it requires merely basic knowledge of matrix algebra, signals and systems, and statistics. Therefore, it also serves as an introduction to linear system identification and gives a practical overview on the major optimization methods used in engineering. The emphasis of this book is on an intuitive understanding of the subject and the practical application of the discussed techniques. It is not written in a theorem/proof style; rather the mathematics is kept to a minimum and the pursued ideas are illustrated by numerous figures, examples, and real-world applications. Fifteen years ago, nonlinear system identification was a field of several ad-hoc approaches, each applicable only to a very restricted class of systems. With the advent of neural networks, fuzzy models, and modern structure opti mization techniques a much wider class of systems can be handled. Although one major characteristic of nonlinear systems is that almost every nonlinear system is unique, tools have been developed that allow the use of the same ap proach for a broad variety of systems.\nNonlinear System Identification: From Classical Approaches to Neural ...\nTitle Nonlinear System Identification: From Classical Approaches to Neural Networks and Fuzzy Models\nAuthor Oliver Nelles\nMathematics / Calculus",

        "title": "My Own 2014 | Brendan Keogh",
        "raw_content": "My Own 2014\nI\u2019ve already written posts on what was my favourite games writing in 2014 and what were my favourite games, so now I should reflect on my own 2014 and link to some of my own work from the past year that I\u2019m particularly happy with.\nI did not write as much publicly in 2014 as I have in previous years. I was teaching a first-year course in the Game Design program at RMIT in the first semester of the year, and that took up a lot of my time and energy (and, frankly, pays much better than freelance games journalism). In the second half of the year, I haven\u2019t been teaching but focusing instead pretty obsessively on my PhD thesis, which I\u2019m hoping to complete about mid-2015. This has meant that non-academic games criticism has taken a bit of a backseat this year for fairly practical time-related reasons.\nBut at the same time, I\u2019ve also found myself fairly exhausted with \u2018games journalism\u2019 narrowly defined, even before it utterly failed as an institution to respond to and account for gamergate. Towards the end of 2013 I decided I wanted to stop focusing my writing efforts on game-centric outlets, which demand a very specific set of values and ideologies, and to focus instead on writing for more general \u2018cultural\u2019 or \u2018literary\u2019 outlets, writing about games for a critically engaged but more populist audience than simply \u2018gamers\u2019. That I had decided this at least six months before right-wing pundits started using the gamergate hashtag as an excuse to beat up on any game creator with progressive politics and a non-male gender makes the fact that gaters accused me of disrespecting my readers by being critical of gamer culture doubly amusing.\nSo this is something I\u2019m really glad to be doing. After writing an essay on Grand Theft Auto V for them last year, I made my debut in Overland\u2018s print journal in January of this year with a letter to Susan Sontag about games criticism. This is, essentially, the letter I wish I could actually send Sontag if she were still alive, and discusses how exciting and relevant I find her work for my own development as a games critic. I also continued to write for Overland\u2018s website this year, with a review of Wolfenstein: The New Order and another of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood.\nMuch like my essay at Unwinnable defending Flappy Bird, my praise of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood is a reactionary one that comes from a place of frustration with most of videogames\u2019 culture\u2019s inability to value videogame works, be they commercial or personal, on their own terms rather than normative design values. There\u2019s an elitist and certainly a gendered tinge to the dismissal of incredibly popular games that shares more than a passing similarity to the dismissal of personal games in previous years as \u2018un-games\u2019. I tried to cover that in this Kim Kardashian: Hollywood review.\nAlso at Unwinnable this year, I wrote some Notes on Luftrausers for the newly launched Unwinnable Weekly magazine. This is my first \u2018Notes\u2019 post published somewhere other than my own blog. Sadly, it is also the only piece I am yet to write from Unwinnable Weekly, but hopefully I will pitch some more in the new year.\nAnother superb outlet I have written criminally few articles for in recent years is Paste, which has published a significant portion of the most incredible writing on games produced this year (not least of all Austin Walker\u2019s many remarkable essays). In addition to all this great writing, they also allowed me to write about Mario Kart 8\u2018s superb visual worldbuilding.\nI was invited to start a column at the film criticism journal Reverse Shot this year, and I have two columns up thus far. The first was, counter-intuitively, about Netrunner and what it teaches us about videogames. The second was about Desert Golfing as a sort of exploration game. More essays will be appearing on this column in the coming months.\nI also briefly sustained a column at The Conversation early in the year for the newly launched Arts+Culture section. It was liberating to be able to write for this audience without being shackled to the Science+Technology section, which is where videogames had previously been covered. Most of what I wrote for this column was, I think, mostly forgettable, but my (quite critical) essays firstly on the mass firings at Irrational Games and secondly on Games Evangelism received a fair bit of attention for being, I think, some of the first dissenting pieces on what were largely covered as positive events (at least for a while). In a similar commentary vein, I\u2019ve written three short pieces for ABC\u2019s The Drum this year: one on e-sports, one on Microsoft buying Mojang, and one on Target refusing to stock Grand Theft Auto V.\nOne piece I am really happy with from the past year is this one that I was invited to write for the American magazine M about videogames and masculinity. This was a challenging piece to write, as the editor was determined that a common audience unfamiliar with videogames could understand it, something that I greatly appreciate it. I\u2019m also delighted by the really great art that was produced to go with the print version of the story (viewable in a gallery on the above link).\nOn my own blogs, I continued writing the \u2018Notes\u2019 styled reviews that I started last year, and people seem to really enjoy these. These more list-style reviews are incredibly liberating in being able to jump from one idea to the next without feeling constrained by the need to have paragraphs flow together or for the piece to have one, over-arching theme. For getting out all my thoughts on a single game, I\u2019ve thoroughly enjoyed writing them. I wrote some Notes on Final Fantasy XII before I brought my old blog, Critical Damage, to a close. On this new blog I wrote some Notes on P.T, Swing Copter, Destiny (which I followed up with some more thoughts a few months later), and Alien: Isolation. The Notes on Destiny and Isolation were particularly popular; the former due to the lack of reviews published before the game\u2019s release, I think, and the latter mostly because I think the developers shared it around on Twitter.\nI also maintained a secondary blog this year, which has been confusing and probably not the greatest strategy for my #brand. I started my tumblr ungaming, firstly, so I could use tumblr more and actually have somewhere to reblog gifs of Japanese movies I\u2019ve never heard of; and secondly, so I could maybe start writing about stuff other than games somewhere. This hasn\u2019t really happened yet, but I\u2019ve still found tumblr a liberating outlet for posting half-formed ideas and long, rambling, top-of-my-head rants that would otherwise be cut up and jammed into fifty tweets. Here, my thoughts on Mountain and on Netrunner\u2018s Scorched Earth are probably highlights. I also used this blog for many of my thoughts on gamergate, but more on that below.\nThis year I also started playing around with video capture. Personally, I don\u2019t find Let\u2019s Play videos particularly interesting to watch, and I find most video essays, regardless of the quality of the content, frustrating as I could just read a written version essay in half the time and without having to pause my music. Despite this, I found making videos and talking my way through gameplay deeply satisfying, and it offered a range of new avenues for analysis that writing does not necessarily allow. My Critical Let\u2019s Play series of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare trilogy was well-received, and I am currently following it up with one of Max Payne 3. I want to continue learning how to use video content in the new year, and plan to try not only more Critical Let\u2019s Play series, but maybe also some more experimental, one-off videos as well. I am using a Patreon page to experiment with funding myself to do this, if that is something you are interested in.\nAnd then, finally, we have gamergate. Ignoring gamergate was impossible as a videogame critic this year. More than impossible, as a straight white male game critic not (for the most part) in the crosshairs of the vile mob that participated (and continues to participate) in the harassment and abuse of woman game creators and critics, I feel I had an obligation to speak out again this violent and revolting movement. At first, this speaking out was more destructive than constructive, arguing directly into the hashtag with those attacking critics and developers. This, I eventually figured out after others told me, is only really using my privileged position in fireproof clothing to fan the flames. Gamergate, I eventually figured out, was something much better spoken about than to. Those that participate in gamergate have no interest in hearing two sides of an argument but only in defending and strengthening a certain, male-dominated status quo, and their logic and position will shift from tweet to tweet in order to defend that position. Talking to those already consumed by the movement achieves nothing. Talking about the movement and all its issues, on the other hand, is an important part in stripping the movement of any guise of credibility.\nThis is what mainstream games journalism utterly failed to do for weeks after the movement started, choosing instead to stay silent or to only report on the \u2018isolated incidents\u2019 of death threats received by various women without a mention of the broader movement responsible. It wasn\u2019t until journalism more broadly (The Guardian, The New York Times, etc.) started reporting on gamergate that games journalism had the courage to discuss it as, explicitly, a misogynistic movement. Ironically, in its campaign to discredit a seemingly progressive institute of games journalism, gamergate had the ultimate result in me losing any faith I had in games journalism as anything more than enthusiast, consumerist press.\nMy main essay on gamergate, when the movement was only a couple of weeks old, was this essay at Overland, which, amusingly, is the only \u2018anti-gamer\u2019 essay of those early weeks that I\u2019m aware of that actually uses the word \u2018death\u2019 in the title. None of the \u2018death of gamer\u2019 articles decried by gamergate actually use the word death at all. For what it\u2019s worth, the title for my piece was chosen by Overland\u2018s editors, not myself, which is really just further proof that gamergate\u2019s crying foul of the clear conspiracy to report on all these Literally Dead Gamers is absurd. I also wrote many tumblr posts during gamergate, usually in response to this or that particular moment that some gater said something absurd or that some games journalism outlet responded in an utterly irresponsible manner. Before the movement had solidified under the gamergate hashtag, I wrote this post about the abusers\u2019 inability to comprehend scale of production and this post about how games journalism is part of the problem. I wrote this post after a bunch of harassers on twitter jumped on a tweet I wrote that said \u201cgamers are shit people\u201d. Last I checked, screengrabs of the tweet were still going around the hashtag as proof of my utter lack of ethics. I wrote this short story analogy when Kotaku US made the poor decision (in a series of poor decisions) to disallow their writers to contribute to Patreon projects, thus giving the gaters the idea that not only did they have a justifiable point (they didn\u2019t), but that they were actually being listened to (they were). I wrote this post after realising that attacking gamergate directly did more harm than good and that it was quite likely there was no shortage of decent-but-gullible people caught up in the movement that needed to be informed about what they were caught up in. I no longer really think this is the case (if you are still supporting gamergate after this long, you have no excuse really), but I think it was important at the time. This post is about how gamergate is able to persist because they are the powerful status quo, and this post is explaining a joke that was so straightforward that it doesn\u2019t really need explaining, and anyone who misunderstood it did so deliberately in order to exploit it. And, amusingly, here is me joining a larger conversation over a year ago about the issues with the \u2018gamer\u2019 identity. Almost like we were discussing these issues long before gaters came along. I have not written more on gamergate more recently (except tweets), but I can\u2019t stress enough how much it is continuing to have a damaging effect on the lives of the most important people making and writing about videogames.\nDue to gamergate, I\u2019ve seen no shortage of excellent writers, mostly those that have emerged from the games criticism blog-o-sphere, feel cheated and disillusioned and ultimately abandoned by mainstream games journalism in the wake of gamergate. Many of them have talked about (if they haven\u2019t already) quitting games journalism entirely because of the lack of support there for any writing or author that does not pander to the core readership of these outlets, which is the same demographic to whom pandering is responsible for gamergate in the first place. I hope these writers don\u2019t stop writing about videogames, but I hope they do abandon games journalism. I hope many of us come to realise that games journalism is such a narrow slither of places that videogames can be written about. For my part, I\u2019m going to continue to distance myself from core games journalism and write for more generalist audiences in outlets that don\u2019t only write about videogames. I also want to get better at consuming media that is not videogames, and writing more about that. I\u2019m tired of being game-centric, and I think videogames and their players need to be not the centre of the world far more often. There are a lot of good people in games journalism, to be sure, but the structure of the industry ultimately ensures that the most interesting writing around videogames is not supported. I think it is telling that not one piece of my favourite pieces of writing about videogames from the past year was published on an outlet that focuses solely on videogames. So, from the privileged position of not ever having been totally dependent on my freelancer income, I think it is safe to say I am done with games journalism narrowly defined, more or less, and I think many of the most interesting games critics feel the same way. There are so many more interesting outlets with more mature readerships that offer more support to their writers who are now, more than ever before, interested in videogames. Games journalism doesn\u2019t need progressive and critically thinking writers, but now more than ever, those writers don\u2019t need games journalism, and that\u2019s something I\u2019m very excited about.\nSo 2015 will see a lot more writing from me, a few more videos, and hopefully a completed PhD! I would also like to write another book about a single videogame, at some point (Driver: San Francisco and the metaphysics of videogames is one I\u2019m strongly considering). Another thing that might happen in 2015 is either a return to creative writing, or perhaps I\u2019ll finally learn how to actually make games. After so many years of academic and critical writing, I\u2019m certainly feeling the urge to just make stuff again. Or maybe I\u2019ll just spend all my time trying to write a better tweet than this one.",

According to Orb\u00e1n, Soros seeks to weaken those countries that resist the EU\u2019s resettlement plan.\nOn the subject of the Hungarian-American philanthropist\u2019s recent response to the government\u2019s anti-Soros propaganda, Orb\u00e1n claimed \u201cthe Soros network has entered the Hungarian election campaign\u201d.\nRegarding this week\u2019s Chinese regional summit in Budapest, Orb\u00e1n said it was not a simple meeting of diplomats but that \u201cthe future of the Hungarian economy\u201d was at stake. He also commented on the questionable profitability of the Budapest-Belgrade rail line upgrade announced on Monday, saying: \u201cThe mere fact that [the line] goes through us [will result in] a change in our significance, our ability to influence, in our weight.\u201d\nThe most successful National Consultation of all time! June 6, 2017\nHere are the \u201cSoros Plan\u201d national consultation questions! September 28, 2017",

        "title": "Huawei controversy: Chinese media hammers Canada amid diplomatic spat",
        "raw_content": "Chinese media compares Canada to 'frightened bird' in Huawei spat\nIt\u2019s no secret that China hasn\u2019t been happy with Canada since the arrest of a top Huawei executive in Vancouver last month.\nThe detention, which came at the request of the U.S., sparked a diplomatic firestorm. Since Meng Wanzhou was arrested on Dec. 1, 2018, two Canadians (Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig) have been detained by Chinese officials. Also, a Canadian man convicted of drug smuggling in China was given a death sentence after appealing his original 15-year prison sentence.\nRELATED: What is Canada\u2019s best option to resolve the China controversy?\nPrime Minister Justin Trudeau has accused China of acting arbitrarily, but that hasn\u2019t deterred Beijing in the slightest. China\u2019s ambassador to China, Lu Shaye, blasted Ottawa earlier this month for what he called \u201cWestern egotism and white supremacy.\u201d\nJust last week, Beijing\u2019s foreign ministry accused the U.S. and Canada of abusing their bilateral extradition treaty.\nMore recently, Chinese publications have been zeroing in on news over the weekend that Trudeau had asked Canada\u2019s ambassador to China to resign after John McCallum said it \u201cwould be great for Canada\u201d if the U.S. dropped their extradition request for Meng. McCallum later said he \u201cmisspoke,\u201d but the damage was done and the Liberals are now saying his remarks were not helpful.\nRelations between Beijing and Ottawa have taken a hit after a high-ranking Huawei executive was arrested in Vancouver at the request of the U.S., and Chinese media outlets have criticized Canada for not releasing Meng Wanzhou. Photo from Getty Images.\nTrudeau and the Liberals have said repeatedly that Canada is a country that respects the rule of law. \u201cWe have a justice system that is not subject to political interference,\u201d the prime minister said earlier this month.\nOn Sunday, China\u2019s state-run Global Times published a scathing op-ed titled \u201cresignation reveals political interference.\u201d The publication said Ottawa was now as \u201csensitive as a frightened bird\u201d for dismissing McCallum.\n\u201cOttawa is forcibly creating a favorable public opinion atmosphere toward extradition,\u201d the op-ed read. \u201cIf Canada insists on wrong practice, it must pay for it.\u201d\nA day later, another Global Times op-ed warned: \u201cThe Trudeau government must properly deal with China-Canada relations, or it should be prepared for Beijing\u2019s further retaliation.\u201d\nThis comes after the state-run People\u2019s Daily referred to Meng\u2019s arrest as a \u201cvile act\u201d that trampled on the rights of a Chinese citizen.\n\u201cCanada sometimes acts more like America\u2019s \u201851st state\u2019 than a sovereign country with a will of its own,\u201d the outlet said on Dec. 10, 2018. \u201cChina\u2019s message to Canada is clear: Canada must correct its mistake and immediately stop violating her lawful rights and interest,\u201d the article added. \u201cOtherwise, as the Chinese side has warned, Canada will pay a heavy price.\u201d\nFor icing on the cake, the editor-in-chief of the Global Times warned in a video that \u201cChina will definitely take retaliatory measures against Canada\u201d if Meng is not released. In a video shared by CTV News, Hu Xijin suggested the reprisals from Beijing will be \u201cfar worse than detaining a Canadian.\u201d Hu added \u201cit\u2019s in Canada\u2019s best interests to try and remain neutral\u201d in the diplomatic spat between the U.S. and China over Huawei.\nBelow is a Twitter post from Hu on the Canada-China spat, accusing Ottawa of being on the wrong side of the controversy and \u201cdeceiving themselves.\u201d\nCanadian public opinion is so sensitive to Ambassador McCallum\u2019s words because they know they are not on the right side. There are many political factors involved in Meng Wanzhou case but some Canadians dare not face this fact. Deceiving themselves makes them feel comfortable.\n\u2014 Hu Xijin \u80e1\u9521\u8fdb (@HuXijin_GT) January 27, 2019\nOn Monday afternoon, the U.S. announced it was pursuing criminal charges against 13 Huawei executives, including Meng, which suggests this case is far from over.\nAnd alarm bells of worry have already been ringing for some time. In an online poll on Yahoo Canada, two-thirds of respondents said they were at least a little concerned by the China-Canada rift while only 29 per cent said they were not.",

REUTERS/Marcelo del Pozo\nBERLIN (Reuters) - With the Spanish media focused on the political crisis over Catalonia, Volkswagen\u2019s (VOWG_p.DE) Spanish division Seat has decided to delay announcing the name of its forthcoming model.\nSeat, based in Martorell in Catalonia, had planned to announce the name of its 2018 sport-utility vehicle (SUV) this month, about a year ahead of the 7-seat model\u2019s launch.\nBut the carmaker, which earlier this month halted production at the Martorell plant after parts supplies were disrupted by protests in Catalonia, said on Tuesday it would disclose the name of the car at a later time.\n\u201cWith the entire Spanish media focused on politics at the moment, we have decided to find a better time,\u201d a spokesman for Seat said.\nSeat has also delayed the announcement of an agreement it has signed with a Spanish industry association on innovation and digitization, he said, without elaborating.\nHowever, preparations for selling and building the vehicle, which is due to be made at Volkswagen\u2019s (VW) Wolfsburg base in Germany, will not be affected by the delay, the spokesman said.\nSimilarly, the presentation of Seat\u2019s new Arona SUV to the international trade press in Barcelona is proceeding as planned and will run for another week, he said.\nSeat, acquired by VW in 1986, returned to profit last year for the first time in about a decade, helped by strong sales of the Ateca, its first crossover model.\nThe 2018 SUV, its third such model in as many years, will play a key role in the brand\u2019s strategy to build on its recovery, chief executive Luca de Meo has said.\nReporting by Andreas Cremer; Editing by Mark Potter",

        "raw_content": "'Deer Hunter' director Michael Cimino dies aged 77\nLONDON (Reuters) - Michael Cimino, whose roller-coaster career as a Hollywood film director included Oscar-winner \u201cThe Deer Hunter\u201d and legendary box office flop \u201cHeaven\u2019s Gate,\u201d has died. He was 77.\nU.S. director Michael Cimino attends a news conference for the film \"Chacun son Cinema\" at the 60th Cannes Film Festival May 20, 2007. REUTERS/Jean-Paul Pelissier\nThe success of \u201cThe Deer Hunter\u201d, a 1978 film about the Vietnam War starring Robert De Niro, made Cimino one of the most sought-after directors in Hollywood. The film won five Academy Awards, including best picture and best director.\nCannes Film Festival director Thierry Fremaux tweeted the news on Saturday that Cimino died peacefully, \u201csurrounded by his family and the two women who loved him. We loved him too.\u201d\nThe cause of death was not immediately known. U.S. media reports said Cimino died at his home in Los Angeles, citing the Los Angeles County coroner\u2019s office. Officials at the coroner\u2019s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\nAccording to Variety, friends phoned the police when they could not reach him and he was found dead on Saturday.\nWord of Cimino\u2019s death triggered tributes from admirers including De Niro, who said their work together was something he will always remember. \u201cHe will be missed,\u201d De Niro said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.\n\u201cThe Deer Hunter,\u201d which explored the impact of the Vietnam War on a small town of steel workers in Pennsylvania, was also a big boost for the careers of Meryl Steep and Christopher Walken, who won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.\nRoger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times described it as \u201cone of the most emotionally shattering films ever made.\u201d\nBut after that movie\u2019s runaway success, Cimino followed up in 1980 with \u201cHeaven\u2019s Gate,\u201d an epic Western that New York Times critic Vincent Canby called \u201can unqualified disaster.\u201d\nThe film came in way over budget at $36 million, three times the average cost of a movie in those days, and Cimino\u2019s career never fully recovered.\n\u201cHe went from a big Oscar film to suddenly being a pariah - everybody\u2019s whipping boy,\u201d Kris Kristofferson, who starred in the film, told the Los Angeles Times in 2004. \u201cEverybody who didn\u2019t get to do a film blamed \u2018Heaven\u2019s Gate,\u2019 saying all the money went to \u2018Heaven\u2019s Gate.\u2019\u201d\nBorn in New York City to a wealthy family, Cimino earned a master\u2019s degree in architecture at Yale University. He was a well-known director of TV commercials before directing his first movie, \u201cThunderbolt and Lightfoot,\u201d a crime drama starring Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges, in 1974.\nAfter the flop of \u201cHeaven\u2019s Gate\u201d, Cimino\u2019s comeback film in 1985, \u201cYear of the Dragon,\u201d starring Mickey Rourke as a New York City cop, failed to excite either moviegoers or critics.\nHe followed up with \u201cThe Sicilian,\u201d based on a Mario Puzo novel; and \u201cDesperate Hours,\u201d a remake of a Humphrey Bogart film about a fugitive, starring Rourke and Anthony Hopkins. Both films were panned by critics and largely ignored by filmgoers.\nHis final Hollywood film, 1996\u2019s \u201cThe Sunchaser,\u201d a drama about a doctor, played by Woody Harrelson, who is kidnapped by a dying patient, didn\u2019t fare any better and marked the end of Cimino\u2019s career.\nReporting by Eric Beech; Editing by Raissa Kasolowsky/Clelia Oziel",

On Sunday, RCH defeated First Divisionist Sparks Haarlem, 21-2, then shutout Mr. Cocker HCAW, 4-0, to finish in first place. HCAW ended in second place, followed by organizer De Hazenkamp and Sparks Haarlem. RCH now has won four games in a row under interim-coach Ramses Meering.\nAt Hoofddorp and Amsterdam, Amsterdam Pirates played two games and won both. No, this is no April Fool's joke, but really happened in a weird situation. Pirates initially was to participate in a triple-header with Konica Minolta Pioniers and DOOR Neptunus, which was scheduled to be played on the renovated home field of Pioniers in Hoofddorp. In the opener, Pirates defeated Pioniers 4-1 in a game which was halted after six innings. The umpires then declared the field unplayable, because there were holes in the mound and the home plate area and problems with the dirt in the first base area. The next scheduled game between Pioniers and Neptunus was dropped, while Neptunus and Pirates traveled to Amsterdam where the remaining game between Neptunus and Pirates was played on the home site of the latter. In that game, Pirates won again, this time 4-2, to move back into first place of the exhibition standings. Kenny Berkenbosch threw seven strong innings for Pirates, which hit the ball well off new Neptunian-pitcher Chris Ryan, who arrived on Thursday from the States.\nAt The Hague, ADO and Almere '90 played a 9-inning game which ended indecisive, as the score was tied 8-8 when the game ended.\nKinheim returns home from Turkey\n...Belly-dancer during the...\nBELEK / ANTALYA / SCHIPHOL (Neth.) - Dutch champion Corendon Kinheim returned home early Tuesday-morning after a great spring trainingcamp in Turkey, but sadly enough the trip ended with an anti-climax.\nMinutes after the plane touched down on Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, Kinheim's longtime Equipment Manager Ron Dekker suffered a heart attack on his way to the passport control. He was attended by airport medics and was transported to an Amsterdam hospital for further care.\n...Kinheim Head Coach Ben Thijssen...\n...and Equipment Manager Ron Dekker...\n...participate in the Dance Show...\nHours earlier, Ron Dekker was participating on stage in a Turkish dance show, which formed the ending of Kinheim's trip to Turkey. A historic trip, as Kinheim not only was the first Dutch team to travel to Turkey, but also played the very first official baseball game in the youngest member of the European Baseball Federation. The Turkish Federation was founded in 2001. Also participating in the dance show on stage were Head Coach Ben Thijssen, infielder Jeffrey Verbij and pitcher Duko Jansen's girlfriend Linda Groot.\nIn the afternoon, the Kinheim-party left the 5-star Arcadia Hotel in Belek and traveled to downtown Antalya to visit the bazaar and the beautiful harbour at the Gulf of Antalya with the Taurus Mountains in the background. The trip was then closed with a dinner and the Turkish Night Show. Hereafter, a short bus ride followed to the international airport of Antalya for the flight back home.\nBefore the dinner, Kinheim-President Peter Jager thanked the club's main sponsor Corendon, who was represented by Joop Kuijk, for enabling the team to have this trainingcamp in Turkey and for the wonderful organization of the trip.\n,,This has been a great trip'', Head Coach Ben Thijssen said after Sunday's games against Tornado Balashikha. ,,Everything was wonderful and good organized. We were able to practice and play under good circumstances and fine weather. Yes, I think we're almost ready now for the season. My line-up is almost set.''\nComing Easter Weekend, Kinheim will be one of three participating teams on the annual I.M. Charles Urbanus Sr. Tournament in Bussum. The week thereafter, Kinheim opens the season with a 2-game series against Almere '90.\n...Jeffrey Verbij participates in belly dancing act...\n...Players watch the Turkish Night Show dancers...\nStarting Pitchers Easter Weekend; ADO's pitching search continues\nAMSTERDAM (Neth.) - In the coming Easter Weekend, the nine Dutch big league-teams will participate in three annual tournaments, which traditionally form the end of the Exhibition Season. The regular season will open on Saturday, April 14.\nAt Bussum, Dutch champion Corendon Kinheim and vice-champion Konica Minolta Pioniers will participate in the I.M. Charles Urbanus Sr. Tournament, organized by Mr. Cocker HCAW. This will be the first time that only three teams are participating instead of four. All teams will play four games in three days. The starting pitchers for all six scheduled games have been announced.\nPioniers sends three pitchers to the mound who already have started earlier this season, while rookie lefthander Maxim Kerkmeer will start his first game on Saturday.\nHCAW also named three pitchers who started before. The team added LHP Joep Meulendijks from the second team and he will make his first start for the squad on Sunday. A few weeks ago, he started against HCAW while playing for the second team. HCAW hopes to announce a foreign pitching addition soon (Canadian?).\nKinheim, which returned home from its training camp in Turkey early Tuesday-morning, will start the first two games with LHP Patrick Beljaards and RHP David Bergman, who both have already started three times. On Monday, LHP Jean-Paul Gulinck and Australian RHP Vaughan Harris will start in the two games Kinheim will play then, but it has yet to be decided against who. In the meantime, players and staff are still concerned about the health of longtime Equipment Manager Ron Dekker, who suffered a heart attack after returning from Turkey and currently is being taken care of in a hospital.\nAt Rotterdam, ADO, Amsterdam Pirates and DOOR Neptunus will join organizer Sparta/Feyenoord in the Hudson John Tournament.\nSparta/Feyenoord named its three pitchers, including RHP Daan Baecke, who will start his first game on Saturday. RHP Rudy Seebus this weekend might be used briefly, as he has a cut in his throwing arm, while the team might add a foreign pitcher in the coming weeks.\nNeptunus also has its rotation set and gave American LHP Chris Ryan his first start on Sunday.\nADO added three pitchers to its roster for the coming weekend and decided to participate in the tournament, despite the on-going pitching problems. Added from the second team were RHP Jeoffrey de Groot and Saturday's starter RHP Gary Da Costa and from the third team RHP Quinten Tramm, who already started two times before. After the team learned that LHP Manny Olivera and RHP Andy Torres will not come to The Hague, ADO got in contact with former Major League-pitcher Matt Smith, but he also will not come, as he recently signed a new professional contract. Another contacted pitcher, Venezuelan Elvis Polanco, who pitched for Rojos de Tenerife (Spain) in the European Cup, also will not come. It was thought, he had a Spanish passport, so they could add an oustide-Europe foreigner to the team, but Polanco only has a Venezueland passport. ADO now has contact with another Venezuelan born-pitcher, who does have a Spanish passport and might add a Japanese pitcher to its roster, while there are also contacts with an American pitcher.\nAmsterdam Pirates named its rotation for the upcoming weekend on Friday.\nAt Enschede, Almere '90 and MediaMonks RCH will participate in the J.C.J. Mastenbroek Tournament, organized by First Divisionist Tex Town Tigers. Other participants are First Divisionist Alcmaria Victrix and Belgian champion Royal Greys. All teams will play at least five games in the 3-day event.\nAlmere named its starters, who all started before, for the four games in the Round Robin and also named a fifth starter for the final day, being RHP Derrick Isenia, who will make his first start.\nRCH, which added Antillian catcher Sevard Seferina to its roster last week, has named its starters on Friday.\nADO, Pirates add players; Markwell released\nTHE HAGUE / AMSTERDAM / ROTTERDAM (Neth.) - With the opening of the new season approaching withing a week, ADO and Amsterdam Pirates both confirmed the addition of a player on Friday.\nADO decided to add Venezuelan pitcher Elvis Polanco after all. Initially, the club from The Hague hoped the righthander had a Spanish passport, meaning they also could bring in an extra outside-Europe foreigner. However, Polanco only holds a Venezuelan passport. But as the latest American ADO had contact with, who reportedly threw 95 mph, signed a contract with the Florida Marlins-organization, ADO decided to add Polanco, who participated in the European Cup Tournaments with Rojos de Tenerife from Spain. Polanco will come to The Hague as soon as possible. This weekend, ADO hopes to have more pitching news.\nAmsterdam Pirates has reached an agreement with Australian infielder Glenn Mascoll, who will join the club in about one-and-a-half week. Mascoll played at short stop and second base for the Waverley Wildcats in Baseball Victoria, one of the Australian Leagues. On March 24, Mascoll and his team captured the State League title, by winning 10-1 vs. Essendon in the final. Mascoll finished the Australian season with a .330 average. In 2005, he participated with the Victoria Aces state team in the Claxton Shield for the Australian national title. Also playing on that tournament was RHP Vaughan Harris, who then pitched for the New South Wales Patriots and this season will throw for Dutch champion Corendon Kinheim. Mascoll played together with national team-players like Simon Beresford, Ben Utting and Brad Harman.\nIn other news, LHP Diegomar Markwell will probably come back to the Netherlands soon. The Dutch national team-pitcher was released last week by his Taiwanese professional team after appearing in only three games. Markwell, who had a contract until early May, might be throwing again for DOOR Neptunus, for whom he also pitched last season and then was voted Best Pitcher of the Dutch big league. It was thought that Markwell already had arrived in the Netherlands two days ago, but that wasn't the case. As soon as he comes back, Neptunus plans to have a talk with the lefthander.\nFirst day Easter Tournaments completed\nBUSSUM / ROTTERDAM / ENSCHEDE (Neth.) - On Saturday, the nine big league-teams completed the first day of games in the three tournaments which are scheduled this Easter Weekend and form the final preparations, as the regular season will open next Saturday. The tournaments run until Monday.\nAt Bussum, Corendon Kinheim opened the 25th edition of the I.M. Charles Urbanus, Sr. Tournament with a 10-3 win vs. Konica Minolta Pioniers. In the next game, Pioniers trailed 3-0 in the third inning vs. organisor Mr. Cocker HCAW, but that game ended in a 4-4 tie.\nAt Rotterdam, ADO opened the Hudson John Tournament with a 6-3 win vs. host Sparta/Feyenoord. Hereafter, DOOR Neptunus shutout Amsterdam Pirates, 9-0.\nAt Enschede, MediaMonks RCH extended its winning streak to six games by winning twice on the opening day of the J.C.J. Mastenbroek Tournament. RCH opened with a 7-2 win vs. Almere '90, then defeated First Divisionist Alcmaria Victrix, 8-4. The first day ended with a 13-3 win by Almere vs. Belgian champion Royal Greys. In this game, Giovannie Samboe hit three homeruns for Almere. RCH now has won six of the seven games played since Ramses Meering took over as interim-coach.\nADO acquires pitcher\nTHE HAGUE (Neth.) - After announcing that Venezuelan righthander Elvis Polanco will join the team shortly, ADO on Saturday added another pitcher to its still small pitching staff.\nOn Saturday, it was confirmed that former Dutch big league-pitcher Berry Tilmans will play for ADO this season. A few years ago, the lefthander threw on the highest level for Sparta/Feyenoord, but then retired due to an injury. After a year, Tilmans started to pitch again and went on to play for Hellevoet Athletics from Hellevoetsluis, which plays in the Fourth Division. There, he pitched the last three seasons and was to be one of their pitchers again this season. But he now decided to transfer to ADO to make a comeback in the big league.\nWith this addition, ADO changed its rotation for Sunday's game on the Hudson John Tournament in Rotterdam. Berry Tilmans now will start, instead of the announced RHP Quinten Tramm, in the game against DOOR Neptunus. A starter for Monday's game has yet to be announced, but ADO now has both RHP Gary Da Costa and Tramm available. Da Costa was to be the starter for Saturday's game, but his place was taken by RHP Jeoffrey de Groot. ADO also confirmed that its closer Robin van Doornspeek is not with the team this weekend.\nNew name, logo for Almere\nALMERE (Neth.) - A week before the season-opener, Almere '90 has changed its name and its logo. Starting this season, the Dutch big league-team added a nickname and will be known as the Almere Magpies.\nIt was said that it was time for the Almerian big league-team for an new and refreshing image, showed with a new teamlogo, which will be worn on the new uniforms of the squad. Model for the logo is a frequently visible bird in the Almere-area, the magpie. In a press release, Almere stated that the magpie is a busy animal, with a lot of confidence and strong will. Therefore, the team didn't choose for a 'showy logo', but for a sharp and clear 'old school' no-nonsense figure which goes with Almere's vision: a team that is going for it.\nLast week, Almere officially opened its Fortis Business Club Almere '90. In this business club, several local companies from Almere financially support the biggest baseball and softball club of the Netherlands. This has to result into a better infrastructure within the club and an oldfashioned club atmosphere. Almere concludes its press release by stating that the big league-team wants to be a contender for the highest rankings in the big league and wants to play a major role in both senior- and youthcompetitions.\nKinheim's Equipment Manager Ron Dekker passed away\nAMSTERDAM / HAARLEM (Neth.) - Ron Dekker, the longtime loyal Equipment Manager of Dutch baseball champion Corendon Kinheim passed away on Saturday-evening in an Amsterdam hospital. Last week, Ron was an enthousiastic participant in the successful spring training camp of Kinheim in Turkey. But minutes after the plane landed shortly after 3 AM Tuesday-morning on Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam returning from Turkey, Dekker, was struck by a major heart attack on his way to the passport control. Medics attended him on the scene, but Ron was transported in critical condition to the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam for further care. Unfortunately, Ron couldn't recover from the heart attack and on Saturday-evening, he passed away at the age of 60 years old.\nOn Friday-morning, April 13, Ron's impressive funeral took place. A long, police escorted, funeral procession left the Pim Mulier Baseball Stadium in Haarlem, the home site of Kinheim, at approximately 9:30 AM en route to the Akendam Cemetery in Haarlem. There, Ron's life and contributions to Kinheim were remembered in speeches by his brother in law, Club Librarian Cor Verdel, Player Wouter Heemskerk, Coach and longtime friend Marcel Joost, Club-President Peter Jager and club P.A. Announcer Yvonne de Vries. All speeches included lot of anecdotes, his own written poems and lots of humor, resulting in spontaneous laughs. Just as Ron would have liked it. Hereafter, Ron was brought to his last resting place, which was an impressive moment. Ron was accompanied by 'his' Kinheim-players, coaches and staffmembers, all dressed in club-jackets. Ten of them carried flowers, while eight served as pallbearer. After the crowded ceremony, there was a gathering with the family in 'The Backstop', Ron's beloved clubhouse of Kinheim in the Pim Mulier Stadium.\nA few years ago, he also ended the European Cup Tournament in Barcelona (Spain) with a visit to a hospital. Shortly after the final, he fell sick and had to be hospitalized, but he recovered and was able to return home quickly. Sadly enough, especially after the so successful trip to Turkey, Ron this time lost the battle.\n...Ron Dekker checks a decoration...\n...on the baseballfield in Antalya, Turkey...\nRon Dekker was the Equipment Manager of the big league baseballteam of Haarlem-based Kinheim for almost 25 years and celebrated the Dutch championship with them in 1994 and last year.\nRon was proud of 'his' Kinheim and the group of players and didn't hide that. During the trainingcamp in Turkey and especially after the convincing victories against the Russian champion Tornado Balashikha, Ron frequently said:\" ,,We have the best team. Mark my words, we again will be the champion, I wouldn't know who else would be the champion. We have the best outfield, the best pitchingstaff and did you see the hitting. No one can stop us.''\nIn Turkey Ron amused himself daily on and around the field in Antalya and the hotel in Belek. On the last day of the trip, a few fours before the team left for the flight back, Ron participated in a dance-act on stage during a Turkish Dance Show which ended the trip and later spontaneously conducted the Turkish music.\nRon liked his beer and a glass of wine. That was common knowledge. He had a lot of humor, but Ron also didn't hide his opinion, during but also outside a game. Through the years many umpires (and others) have heard that loud and clear.\nFamous were his humoristic (short) poems. Ron made them up on the spot. Some of them were published annually in the Kinheim Yearbook. Four years ago some of his poems were bundled and published in a small booklet. The 3000 copies of its were sold out in no time.\nHis 'Icecream Shuffle' before a game in the Kinheim dug-out became legendary with the group of players and became a tradition. In Turkey, Ron also did his shuffle before the two games against the Russians. Initially, Ron said he only wanted to do it during the regular season, but the players encouraged him to do it and the shuffle followed. Unfortunately, it would be his last one.\nWith the passing of Ron Dekker, the Dutch baseball world has lost a very colourful character, who will be missed by a lot of us.\nKinheim, Neptunus win; Almere in final\nBUSSUM / ROTTERDAM / ENSCHEDE (Neth.) - After Sunday's games, Corendon Kinheim leads in Bussum, DOOR Neptunus in Rotterdam and Almere '90, soon to be known as the Magpies, clinched the final in Enschede.\nAt Bussum, the second day of the 25th I.M. Charles Urbanus, Sr. Tournament started with a minute of silence in remembrance of Ron Dekker, the longtime Equipment Manager of Corendon Kinheim, who passed away on Saturday-evening. It was an emotional day, as Kinheim also played its game vs. Mr. Cocker HCAW in black shirts to remember their colourful staffmember, who will surely be missed. The players were informed earlier in the morning of the passing of Ron Dekker. Even to write these lines is difficult and strange, as less than a week ago the Kinheim-group (and your webmaster) were enjoying the warm Turkish sun during the team's spring training camp. In Turkey, we shared the same table as Ron, ride the bus together, laughed, ate and drink and enjoyed good baseball. And now, the Kinheim-family has to say goodbye to their loyal equipment manager and buddy, who was with them for almost 25 years. The game vs. HCAW was played routinely and was won 3-0. In the second game of the day, HCAW lost 5-1 to Konica Minolta Pioniers.\nAt Rotterdam, DOOR Neptunus shutout ADO 6-0 to become the leader in the Hudson John Tournament. In the next game, Sparta/Feyenoord came alongside, 2-2, in the sixth inning vs. Amsterdam Pirates, but lost 6-2.\nAt Enschede, Almere '90 reached the final of the J.C.J. Mastenbroek Tournament by winning twice against a First Division-team. First, organisor Tex Town Tigers was shutout 4-0, then the day ended with a 14-4 win vs. Alcmaria Victrix in a game which ended around 8 PM. The second day had started later than scheduled, due to fog in the morning. MediaMonks RCH failed to qualify directly for the final. After winning twice on Saturday, the team started today with a 4-4 tie against Belgian champion Royal Greys, then lost 5-4 to Tex Town Tigers. RCH now has to play at 10 AM on Monday-morning vs. Tex Town Tigers in the third place-game. The winner qualifies for the final.\nRick van den Hurk to start in Major League!\nMIAMI, Florida (USA) - Dutch pitcher Rick van den Hurk is on his way to Miami to make his Major League-debut with the Florida Marlins!\nMonday-morning (today) it was reported (and confirmed by some sources) that the 21-year old righthander was recalled to the big league-team and was to start in Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. On March 27, Van den Hurk threw four innings in a Spring Training-game vs. the Baltimore Orioles as a non-roster invitee in the final week of the Marlins-camp, before the regular season started. At the moment, Florida is in second place in the National League East after winning four of their first six games of the season. Florida was 2-1 vs. the Washington Nationals and 2-1 vs. the Philadelphia Phillies. Today (Monday), Florida opens a series against the Milwaukee Brewers, which shares third place in the National League Central with a 3-3 record. Initially, Ricky Nolasco, who threw in relief last Friday, was named as the probable starter for Tuesday-evening against Milwaukee. However, Nolasco was put on the disabled list with a tender right elbow and replaced by Van den Hurk.\nBefore being recalled, Van den Hurk was on the roster of the Carolina Mudcats, the double-A team of the Marlins. The team is in third place of the North Division of the Southern League and lost three of its first four games of the season against the Birmingham Barons. Van den Hurk didn't pitch in those games.\nVan den Hurk initially was scheduled to start yesterday's game (Sunday) against the Barons, but his start was scrubbed before the game.

At the moment, this staff is down to two, as Van Doornspeek currently is not with the team. On Friday, the team announced the addition of Venezuelan RH pitcher Elvis Polanco and on Saturday, the addition of LHP Berry Tilmans. On Monday, it was confirmed that Polanco will arrive in The Hague next Friday, but on the same day, the team was informed that the transfer of Tilmans to ADO was not possible. Tilmans, who is on the roster of Hellevoet Athletics in the Fourth Division, will not get permission to transfer to the higher big league, as the transfer comes after the November 1 deadline.

In the second inning, Van den Hurk struckout the side. Geoff Jenkins first struckout on a foul tip, then Corey Hart struckout swinging and Tony Graffanino was called out on strikes to give Van den Hurk five consecutive strikeouts.\nFlorida had taken a 1-0 lead in the first inning off Claudio Vargas.

Next, Prince Fielder walked intentionally, before the game was interrupted by rain. After the game resumed after a 49-minute delay, Van den Hurk didn't return and was relieved by Lee Gardner, who hit Bill Hall to load the bases. But the inning ended when Johnny Estrada grounded out, meaning Van den Hurk would end his first game with a no-decision.\nVan den Hurk threw 84 pitches in his debut, 53 of which were strikes.\nRick van den Hurk became the fifth player who was raised in the Netherlands to reach the Major League. The others are: RHP Win Remmerswaal, OF Rikkert Faneyte, SS Robert Eenhoorn and SS Ralph Milliard.\nVan den Hurk became the eighth Dutch-born player and fourteenth with a Dutch passport to reach the Major League. Besides Remmerswaal, Faneyte and Eenhoorn, this total includes six players, who were born on Cura\u00e7ao and four, who were born on Aruba.\nWith the debut of Van den Hurk, there are now three players with a Dutch passport currently playing in the Major League. The other two are Outfielder Andruw Jones (Atlanta Braves) and Pitcher Sidney Ponson (Minnesota Twins).\nVan den Hurk is the third Dutch-born pitcher in the Majors and only the second who was raised in The Netherlands. The first one was Bert Blyleven, who was born in Zeist, but left for the States at a very young age. Win Remmerswaal then became the 'first' Dutch Major Leaguer when he made his debut with the Boston Red Sox in 1979 and then pitched again for the BoSox in 1980. Now, 27 years later, there is another Dutchman in the big league.\nThe first Dutch-born player in the Major League was Rynie Wolters, who made his debut in 1871 as a player of the New York Mutuals in the National Association, which was then considered a Major League.\nThe April 10 debut by Van den Hurk is the earliest ever by a Dutch-raised player. The previous earliest debut was April 27, 1994 when Robert Eenhoorn made his debut with the New York Yankees. Milliard made his debut in May, Faneyte and Remmerswaal in August.\nThe Marlins re-took the lead in the home fifth when Alejandro De Aza reached on an error and scored on a sac-fly by Dan Uggla, but in the ninth inning, the Brewers tied the score again. Rickie Weeks, who had entered the batting order after Tony Graffanino had been ejected after he was called out on strikes, led off the ninth with a walk, stole second base and scored on a ground-rule double by J.J. Hardy.\nAfter the tenth inning, the game was stopped for the third time by rain. This time, it was decided to stop the game, making it the first game to be suspended by rain in Miami since May 5, 1995. The game will be completed on Wednesday-evening, before the regularly scheduled game.\nNext start: Monday vs. Houston\nMIAMI, Florida (USA) - Dutch pitcher Rick van den Hurk, who made his Major League-debut on Tuesday-evening, will start again next Monday. After throwing against the Milwaukee Brewers in his debut, Van den Hurk will face the Houston Astros in Houston in his second big league-start for the Florida Marlins.\nVan den Hurk's performance on Tuesday was called 'outstanding', as he struckout five batters in a row from the first through second inning. In 4 2/3 inning, the righthander gave up only five hits. ,,He did very well, I was impressed'', Florida-Manager Fredi Gonzalez said after Tuesday's game in the locker room.\nThe day after his debut, Van den Hurk looked back to his debut. ,,It felt great, it was very cool'', Van den Hurk said under the warm Florida-sun. ,,This is a new episode for me. Yes, I now starts to realize that I pitched in the Major League.''\nAbout his performance, Van den Hurk said against Grand Slam * Stats & News: ,,I felt good and I remained myself. The throwing went fine, while I prepared before the game. Yes, when the game started I was somewhat nervous.'' Van den Hurk walked the first batter he faced, who then advanced on a wild pitch. But hereafter, he threw great. Van den Hurk: ,,I had to adjust. There is lot going through yourself at a moment like that. The first pitch I made was a strike, that was a good feeling. After the first batter, I was through it and then it went well, I was more relaxed then.''\nVan den Hurk's debut was cut short by rain. After the game was stopped in the fifth inning, it was resumed after a 49-minute delay and Van den Hurk didn't return after that. Van den Hurk: ,,Yes, when it not had started raining, I had remained in the game. But nevertheless, this is a great feeling.''\nNeptunus unveils retired number-section\nROTTERDAM (Neth.) - DOOR Neptunus on Thursday-evening unveiled a section on the leftfield-fence of the Neptunus Familystadium which is dedicated to the three retired numbers of the club.\n...Paul van den Oever (left)...\n...is presented with his shirt...\n...by Jan van der Sande...\nOn the wall, the numbers and names are now visible of Pitcher Harry Koster (14), Short Stop Robert Eenhoorn (16) and Second Baseman Bob van Aalen (22).

The starters for five other teams have been named. Konica Minolta Pioniers has no games scheduled.\nOn Sunday, lefthander Diegomar Markwell starts for Neptunus and that marks his comeback in the Dutch league after returning back from Taiwan.\nROTTERDAM (Neth.) - DOOR Neptunus on Thursday-evening won 9-1 vs. MediaMonkS RCH, which produced only one basehit off three different pitchers.\nAcross town, Sparta/Feyenoord trailed 3-0 vs. Konica Minolta Pioniers, but took a 4-3 lead only to see the game end in a 4-4 tie.\nMarlon Fluonia to coach RCH; new pitcher\nHEEMSTEDE (Neth.) - MediaMonks RCH on Thursday-evening announced that former national team-player Marlon Fluonia will be its new coach.\nFormer catcher Fluonia, who played in 755 games (trailing only recordholder Marcel Joost) in 21 big league seasons, will join the coachingstaff of RCH coming weekend.\nAfter the 2005 season, when he played for Instant Holland Almere '90, Fluonia retired. Fluonia made his debut in 1985 while playing for UVV. He also played for Neptunus, Quick Amersfoort and Sparta/Feyenoord and appeared in 48 games with the Dutch National Team, with whom he participated in the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta (USA).\nThe team states that Fluonia's knowledge and experience will be of great value for the young team. At the moment, RCH is coached by Ramses Meering (Head Coach), Jeroen Roozen (Coach) and Dave Dusseau (Pitching), who all will remain in the coachingstaff. In the coming days, it will become clear who will do what.\nRCH also announced that it has reached an agreement with Canadian pitcher Marek Deska, who will arrive in May.\nThe 20-year old righthander last season completed his college career with the University of Bridgeport and finished the 2006 season with the Purple Knights with a 4-3 record and one save. He pitched in 13 games and struckout 37 in 58 1/3 innings. His ERA was 3.24. Deska also threw for the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Intercounty Baseball League, appearing in seven games with a 1-2 record, striking out 19 batters and finishing with a 3.12 ERA.\nVan den Hurk second's ML-start\nMIAMI, Florida (USA) - Dutch pitcher Rick van den Hurk on Thursday-evening started his second Major League-game for the Florida Marlins, which lost 11-3 to the New York Mets, losing its fifth game in a row.\nVan den Hurk pitched four innings in which he struckout six batters, but also gave up eight earned runs and seven basehits, including two homeruns.\nIn the first inning, Van den Hurk, whose fastball was clocked at 93 mph, struckout the side, but also gave up a run. In the home first, Florida took a 2-1 lead, but in the third, the Mets scored six runs, including two on a 2-out homerun by Ramon Castro. In the fourth inning, Carlos Beltran added a 2-out solo-homerun.\nOrlando 'El Duque' Hernandez started for the Mets and the Cuban struckout ten batters in seven innings, giving up only three hits.\nBesides losing the game, Florida also lost third baseman Miguel Cabrera, who was replaced precausiously because of a stiff right torso after the second inning. His status is day-to-day.\nVan den Hurk's next big league start will be next Tuesday when Florida is hosting the Atlanta Braves, against whom he pitched in relief last Sunday.\nFirst Division: First win for champion Tridents\nROTTERDAM (Neth.) - DOOR Tridents, which last season captured the Dutch title in the First Division, on Friday-evening won its first game of the season with a 10-0 shutout vs. Jeka.

That was enough to hand Sparta/Feyenoord its first loss, 2-1. HCAW won the game in the ninth inning, just as it did last weekend.\nAt The Hague, ADO was leading 8-1 when opponent MediaMonks RCH suddenly scored six runs in the ninth inning, thanks to some walks, but the home team went on to win 8-7.\nAt Almere, DOOR Neptunus claimed first place again in the evening by winning 3-1 vs. Almere Magpies.\nFirst Division: Alcmaria, TTT lead\nALKMAAR (Neth.) - Alcmaria Victrix on Saturday defeated ADO 2 8-4 in a First Division Interleague-game, while Tex Town Tigers won 14-1 against Ergo-Services Kinheim om Sunday to remain the only two unbeaten teams in Pool A of the First Division.\nEuro Stars and Robur '58 ran into their first loss this weekend.\nComplete Recap, Line Score & Box Score Alcmaria vs. ADO 2\nNeptunus, Kinheim, HCAW win again\n...Scary moment before the game...\nAMSTERDAM (Neth.) - DOOR Neptunus, Corendon Kinheim and Mr. Cocker HCAW form the top-3 after the second week of competition in the Dutch big league, as all three teams won again on Sunday. Neptunus and Kinheim are unbeaten, HCAW lost only lost its opening game.\nAt Rotterdam, DOOR Neptunus won 6-1 vs. Almere Magpies, whose centerfielder Eugene Kingsale had to be hospitalized before the game. During warming-up, while standing in front of the dug-out, he was hit in the temple-area with a ball and had to be attended. He was brought to a hospital for further check-ups and returned during the game. In the hospital it was diagnosed that Kingsale had suffered a minor concussion. Luckily, the injury was minor.\nDiegomar Markwell started his first game for Neptunus after returning from Taiwan and pitched five hitless innings and Martijn Meeuwis homered for Neptunus.\nAt Haarlem, Corendon Kinheim saw its lead being narrowed to 10-6 when Fausto \u00c1lvarez Rizo hit a grand slam homerun, but the home team won comfortably 15-7 vs. Amsterdam Pirates.\nAt Rotterdam, Mr. Cocker HCAW trailed against Sparta/Feyenoord, but turned the game around and won 8-4.\nAt Heemstede, ADO climbed into fifth place by winning 10-1 vs. MediaMonks RCH.\nAmerican outfielder for HCAW\nBUSSUM (Neth.) - Mr. Cocker HCAW on Tuesday announced it has added American Outfielder John Coker to its roster. The 24-year old player arrives next Saturday and is eligible to play for HCAW in the upcoming 3-game series against MediaMonks RCH.\n(Photo: Univ. of Louisiana)\nEleven days ago, HCAW announced the addition of Canadian pitcher Stephen Spragg, who holds a British passport and therefore is not considered a foreign player. The only HCAW-player with big league-experience in the outfield currently is centerfielder Ronald Jaarsma. Leftfielder Sergio Koelemij, who is in his first season with the club, played in the outfield for Pioniers, but the last few seasons, he played in the First Division. Rightfielder Bart Gabri\u00ebls is originally an infielder, but started this season in the outfield. Nick Makkinje, who did play regularly in the outfield last season, currently is in the States for study and will return somewhere in May.\nJohn Coker played two seasons for the Rajin' Cajuns, the baseball-team of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. In 2004, he played in 53 games and batted .248 with 41 basehits, including nine doubles and one homerun, and had 17 RBI's. In 2005, Coker played in 66 games and hit .329 with 84 basehits, including 16 doubles, ten triples and two homeruns, and had 29 RBI's. In these two seasons, he stole 51 bases, including a teamleading 22 in 2004.\nBefore coming to Louisiana, Coker played baseball for Muskogee High School in Oklahoma in 2001 and two seasons for Seminole State Junior College in Florida in 2002-2003. After completing his two years in Louisiana, COker played professionally for the Evansville Otters in the Independent Frontier League in 2005. He played in 23 games for the Otters, batted .266 and had 21 basehits, including only one double. He initially also signed for the 2006 season, but was then traded less than a month later to the Florence Freedom in the same league, who released him six days later. In 2006, Coker didn't play baseball, but planned to play American football for the Rajin' Cajuns. In his High School-days, Coker was a running back and defensive player for the football-team of Muskogee.\nIt was a surprise to many that Coker wasn't drafted by a Major League-organization in 2004 and 2005, because he had good figures and baseball skills. But some say that his size (which is 5-8) might have been of influence. Coker had try-outs with the Cincinnati Reds, Baltimore Orioles and the Major League Scouting Bureau. In 2001, he was the 37th draft pick for the San Diego Padres, after he had stolen 41 bases and batted .468 for Muskogee.\nVan den Hurk's third ML-start\nMIAMI, Florida (USA) - Rick van den Hurk's third Major League-start on Tuesday-evening for the Florida Marlins lasted a little bit more than one inning, as the Dutch righthander gave up four hits and four runs in the first inning against the Atlanta Braves.\nThis was Rick's fourth appearance in the big league. His first start came two weeks ago against the Milwaukee Brewers, which was followed by a relief-appeance against the Atlanta Braves and a start against the New York Mets.\nWhile he started well, it wasn't Rick's night. In the first inning, he walked lead-off batter Kelly Johnson, who then advanced on a balk. Hereafter, Van den Hurk struckout Edgar Renteria and saw Chipper Jones hit a grounder on which Johnson moved to third base. So far, so good, but then Andruw Jones hit an RBI-single to give the Braves an 1-0 lead. Brian McCann then also singled, which was followed by an RBI-double by Jeff Francoeur. After a visit from his pitching coach, Van den Hurk gave up a 2-run single to Scott Thomas that made it 4-0. Rick then ended the inning by striking out Ryan Langerhans.\nTrailing 4-0, the Marlins came alongside by also scoring four runs in their first at bat, including three on a homerun by Cody Ross. Van den Hurk came back in the second, but then walked the first three batters he faced and was relieved by Lee Gardner. Later in the inning, two of these runners would score with two outs on a walk and a single.\nRick ended up with a no-decision, as Florida tied the score again in the third inning, but eventually lost 11-6.\nAMSTERDAM (Neth.) - Coming weekend, eight of the nine teams in the Dutch big league have a 3-game series ahead of them. Dutch champion Corendon Kinheim is the weekend off in the 9-team league.\nThe only series where the starters are known for all three games for both teams is that between Konica Minolta Pioniers and Sparta/Feyenoord.\nAll three starters are also known for Almere Magpies for their games against ADO, which has not yet decided who will start on Monday.\nMr. Cocker HCAW also named its rotation for its series against MediaMonks RCH, which only named a starter for Saturday. As of now, that will be Canadian RHP Ryan Murphy, who is scheduled to arrive on Friday. It will be decided later on Friday if Murphy indeed will start on Saturday or be moved to one of the other games, while the other starters are also expected to be filled in then.\nLeague-leader DOOR Neptunus also set its starters for its series against Amsterdam Pirates, which is the lone team not to have their starters yet. Because of some slight injuries in the pitching-staff, it will be decided on Friday who will pitch when. It is possible that pitchers from the second team have to be re-called.\nWhile most starters have been announced for the upcoming series, it is always possible of course that coaches might change their assignments on game days.",

        "title": "Last Chance for the 115th: Legislative Action on Labor and Employment | Competitive Enterprise Institute",
        "raw_content": "Last Chance for the 115th: Legislative Action on Labor and Employment\nThis June here at OpenMarket we\u2019ll be looking at what the 115th Congress, which began January 3, 2017 and runs through January 3, 2019, has accomplished so far and what might still be achieved for limited government and free markets before it\u2019s over. Read more about the Competitive Enterprise Institute\u2019s recommendations for legislative reform here.\nLawmakers have made little to no progress during the 115th Congress to improve labor and employment policy. U.S. labor law is outdated and in need of modernization. In December 2016, the Competitive Enterprise Institute released its \u201cAgenda for Congress\u201d outlining several opportunities to update labor law in order to increase worker choice and flexibility and remove onerous burdens on job creators.\nUnfortunately, little headway has been made to liberate the labor market, and it is unlikely that Congress takes any action before the end of the 115th session. Below is a snapshot of the meager progress made on labor and employment legislation over the past two years.\nLabor reform suggested in CEI\u2019s Agenda for Congress can be easily divided into two categories\u2014legislation that modifies the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).\nRecommended reform to the FLSA focused on lifting restrictions on flexible work arrangements.\nA major focus of the Agenda for Congress was reforming overtime requirements. In some respect, Congress was let off the hook because Eastern Texas District Court struck down the Obama administration\u2019s overtime rule that, among other changes, raised the overtime salary threshold from $23,660 to $47,476. The Court ruled that the Obama administration crafted an overtime rule that disregarded the intent of the law. The Trump administration has plans to issue a new rule, and CEI submitted comments in response to the Labor Department\u2019s Request for Information on how best to craft an overtime regulation.\nHowever, more needs to be done than to just nullify Obama administration policies. Congress needs to reform antiquated wage and hour laws that impede employers and employees from coming up with creative solutions to allow for flexible work schedules that workers desire.\nInstead of restricting how individuals may work, Congress needs to reform the FLSA to allow employers to offer compensatory time instead of overtime pay. As I wrote in the Hill:\nOne solution to that problem is a proposal from Representative Martha Roby (R-Ala.) to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act, the primary federal wage and hour law, to expand choices when it comes to workers\u2019 time. The Working Families Flexibility Act allows employers to offer employees what is known as compensatory, or \u201ccomp,\u201d time, instead of overtime wages. With this legislation, a worker would be allowed to choose whether to take overtime compensation or receive paid \u201ccomp\u201d time, both accruing at 1.5 times overtime hours worked.\nCEI also sent a coalition letter to Congress in support of The Working Families Flexibility Act (H.R. 1180 and S. 801). Like many other bills, the Working Families Flexibility Act passed the House but has languished in the Senate.\nAnother area of the FLSA that CEI sees as an opportunity to reform is the worker classification process. The FLSA has one of the broadest definitions of employee. This restricts workers\u2019 ability to engage in work as independent contractors.\nFurther, a patchwork of more than ten different federal and state statutes have varying definitions of \u201cemployee.\u201d This lack of certainty creates an unfair playing field for independent contractors. Congress has an opportunity to simplify and harmonize the definition of \u201cemployee,\u201d which will allow businesses to hire independent contractors without fear of litigation or running afoul of the Labor Department. Recently, CEI signed onto a coalition letter that would redefine and harmonize the definition of employee across several statutes including the FLSA. Here is a description of the H.R. 3825, the Harmonization of Coverage Act of 2017:\nH.R. 3825 would achieve a harmonized definition of the term employee for purposes of federal statutes. It would conform the Fair Labor Standards Act (\u201cFLSA\u201d) to the other New Deal statutes that were enacted during the same era that all now follow a common-law definition for the term employee. And it would conform the FLSA to the more recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions that adopt a common-law test for the term \u201cemployee\u201d for purposes of statutes, such as the FLSA, that define the term with a definition that is circular.\nUnfortunately, H.R. 3825 has not made any progress in the House and has only been introduced by Rep. Diane Black (R-TN).\nCEI has long advocated for legislation to greatly reduce the National Labor Relations Board\u2019s adjudicatory and rulemaking authority. The Board has become a highly politicized agency where case precedent flip-flops in favor of organized labor or management, depending on whether a Democrat or Republican holds the presidency.\nCEI recommends implementing the reforms included in the Employee Rights Act H.R.2723, which reforms many provision in the NLRA and protects worker freedom to choose.\nThe ERA would modernize U.S. labor law by expanding worker freedom and increase union accountability to membership. The bill requires secret ballots in union organizing elections; require union recertification election to ensure workers voluntarily choose union representation and do not inherit them; give employees the right to opt out of sharing their private information during a union organizing campaign, among other pro-worker provisions.\nEven though the ERA has 153 co-sponsors in the House, it still has not been afforded a vote.\nLast, CEI recommended Congress pass legislation, and led a coalition, to restore the traditional joint employer standard. During the Obama administration, the NLRB issued a decision Browning-Ferris that redefined the joint employer standard and created near-unlimited liability and uncertainty for employers.\nTo relieve the business community of this uncertainty, Rep. Bradley Byrne (R-AL) introduced the Save Local Business Act H.R. 3441. The legislation would reestablish the longtime standard of when two businesses would be held jointly liable for workplace rules and policies. In October of 2017, the House passed the Save Local Business Act.\nThe 115th session of Congress was not fruitful in terms of passing legislation to reform outdated U.S. labor law. Perhaps there is still time for a last ditch effort to implement legislation that protects worker freedom or allows for flexible work arrangements.\nRead previous posts in the \u201cLast Chance for the 115th\u201d series:\nStop the President from Unilaterally Raising Tariffs by Ryan Young (6/14/18)\nBring Accountability to the Financial Regulators by Daniel Press (6/13/18)\nSenate Should Pass AV START Act by Marc Scribner (6/12/18)",

        "title": "The Subprime FHA | Competitive Enterprise Institute",
        "raw_content": "The Subprime FHA\nAfter two months of economic jitters over bad lending decisions, it looks as if the credit markets may have turned a corner. The stock market has regained its ground, and repriced deals are moving through the business pipeline.\nBut just as financial players are applying more scrutiny to private-sector loans, the elected trustees of the taxpayers' piggy bank are looking to engage in some real estate speculation of their own by expanding a 73-year-old New Deal edifice: the Federal Housing Administration.\nFHA-backed loans are being touted for their \"safety\" -- to consumers and the financial system. \"If we can get people into the FHA rather than to some of the other kinds of loans they have, everybody will be better off,\" argued Rep. Barney Frank (D., Mass.), chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, during a hearing this year.\nAlthough differing on details, Bush administration officials agree with Mr. Frank on the basics. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Alphonso Jackson, whose department is parent to the FHA, has described the loans the agency backs as a \"safe alternative to . . . exotic subprime loans.\"\nBoth Mr. Frank and President Bush support major increases in the limits on the value of loans the agency can make, which are contained in a bill that passed the House of Representatives last month. Only 72 Republicans, mostly members of the conservative Republican Study Committee, voted against the bill. A similar bill cleared the Senate Banking Committee 20-1.\nBut before the FHA's loan spigots are opened up, a little due diligence by the political sector is in order. The FHA's recent credit history shows it is far from the prudent institution it is said to be. By its own estimate, next year the agency expects to be in the red, paying out more for defaulted loans than borrowers pay to it in insurance premiums. \"Because of adverse loan performance,\" the FHA states in its budget submission for 2008, \"total costs exceed receipts on a present value basis, and therefore would require appropriations . . . to continue operation.\"\nThe agency poses more than just a threat to taxpayers. The collapse of whole segments of the housing market can be traced to FHA-subsidized mortgage products. Despite its decreasing market share, the FHA appears to have played a significant role in the current mortgage \"meltdown\" attributed to subprime loans.\nFor the past three years, delinquency rates on the oh-so-safe mortgages insured by the FHA have consistently been higher than even those of the dreaded subprime mortgages. In the last quarter of 2006, for instance, the delinquency rate for subprimes had increased to 13.33% in the National Delinquency Survey compiled by the Mortgage Bankers Association. But in the FHA category, the rate had risen to 13.46% -- \"a new record.\"\nNationally, FHA-backed loans do have a lower foreclosure rate than subprimes do, but one that's nearly twice as high as the rate for all mortgages. And in certain regions, FHA-insured loans account for a disproportionate share of mortgage woes.\nTake Colorado. For months the state has had one of the highest foreclosure rates in the nation, and a Denver Post investigation lays much of the blame on FHA products. \"FHA program key in surge of foreclosures,\" stated the headline of the Post article. The newspaper found that while the FHA backed less than one-fifth of home loans in two Denver-area counties, the loans that were FHA-insured actually accounted for about a third of the counties' foreclosures.\nFHA-insured loans have also been at the center of some of the worst excesses of the housing boom, including mortgage fraud, loans made without income verification, and property \"flipping\" with inflated appraisals. Last month, in a case brought by federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, a Rockford, Ill., real-estate agent pleaded guilty to conspiring to defraud the U.S. government through the use of phony pay stubs and credit letters to obtain FHA loans for home-buying clients.\nSeveral similar schemes involving FHA-backed loans have been documented by congressional probes and newspapers such as the Baltimore Sun. GOP Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, who supervised a 2001 Senate subcommittee investigation of mortgage fraud, said bluntly that \"the federal government has essentially subsidized much of this fraud.\"\nHow could an agency with a reputation for being so conservative have made loans that turned out to be so problematic? Part of the answer rests in a foolish quest to compete with the private sector for \"market share.\" In both the Clinton and Bush administrations, the FHA's response to private alternatives for low-income borrowers was to aggressively compete with them -- by making the agency's own lending standards even more \"subprime\" than those of the private sector.\nSince its inception in 1934, the FHA has required a down payment -- originally 20%, but gradually whittled down to 3% -- for a home loan. The down payment requirement was to help ensure that borrowers were responsible, even if they didn't have perfect credit histories.\nBut in 1997, home sellers and buyers started to get around this rule by donating money to foundations that provide down-payment assistance to buyers. Since the FHA does not count assistance from these foundations as a seller inducement -- as many non-FHA lenders do -- seller-funded charities can contribute virtually unlimited amounts to borrowers to cover down payments, closing costs and even FHA borrower insurance premiums. A recent paper by HUD researcher Austin Kelly notes that, since 2000, studies by HUD's Office of Inspector General \"have found that sales prices of homes using seller-funded nonprofits tend to reflect the assistance\" provided by the charities.\nIn other words, the buyer's assistance is frequently rolled into the home price, inflating the value of the home and leaving the FHA -- and ultimately the taxpayer -- holding the bag for a defaulted loan. And studies also indicate that the FHA will be picking up the tab at a higher level for these loans.\nIn 2005, Congress's Government Accountability Office found that FHA borrowers who received assistance from a seller-funded nonprofit were more than twice as likely to default as the agency's borrowers who received no down-payment assistance. They were also more likely to default than borrowers with other types of assistance.\nDespite these trends, HUD Secretary Jackson's biggest concern has appeared to be not the FHA's solvency, but the government agency's loss of business to the private sector. \"I am absolutely emphatic about winning back our share of the market,\" he told the Washington Post in 2005.\nLooking at the agency's dismal performance over the past few years, we can predict that, if the FHA racks up more \"wins,\" taxpayers and low-income home buyers will likely be suffering the losses.\nIt is important to note that the vast majority of home mortgages, FHA-backed or otherwise, are not in danger of foreclosure. Overly burdensome regulation of any type of lender would be counterproductive. But those concerned with the fiscal health of the mortgage market and the U.S. Treasury should be emphatic in opposing the expansion of a government agency that added so much fuel to the current \"meltdown.\"\nHouse Bipartisan JOBS Act 3.0 Act Will Cut Red Tape for Investors, Small Companies",

I haven\u2019t read the book you suggested, but we love St. Nicolas and he is an amazing defender of the faith. Here is a link to his story.\nhttp://oca.org/saints/lives/2013/12/06/103484-st-nicholas-the-wonderworker-and-archbishop-of-myra-in-lycia\nLet me know if it is different from the story you know! I always thought he was German! My favorite part of his story is when he punched Arius the heretic in the face at the first ecumenical (the council where they wrote the Nicene creed).\nAlso- I completely second your objections to the typical children\u2019s literature.\nThat was interesting reading\u2026I don\u2019t know much about him other than that book I mentioned (it\u2019s mainly about the three sisters and their dowries). We also have Once Upon a Time Saints and More Once Upon a Time Saints which I really like\u2013my intro to many of them! I consider them chapter books, though, not picture books. \ud83d\ude42\nYES! We all should be picky about picture books! One of my favorite story books: THE DOT by Peter Reynolds. Don\u2019t you think that to kids, a picture book is a picture book whether it is nonfiction or not? Have you read any Steven Jenkins nonfiction picture books? He\u2019s fabulous and his nonfiction is as good as any story books I know. Thanks for your great list!\nmarisolstice Post author September 17, 2014 at 4:15 pm\nI wasn\u2019t familiar with either of those authors. Took a peek on Amazon, and they look really cool!

        "title": "Interview: WTTW's Geoffrey Baer - The Chicagoist",
        "raw_content": "By Karl Klockars in Miscellaneous on Nov 19, 2007 8:30PM\nWhile we realize it's fairly rare that one would set their DVRs for anything on PBS, the general exception to this rule is anything put out by Geoffrey Baer and his roving band of researchers, river-riders, historians and now culinarians. The lengths of his river tours have been epic - hours of information, interspersed with polite requests for some of your money, with tote bags all around.\nBaer promises that there's a little more temporal restraint being shown in the new outing, called Foods of Chicago: A Delicious History. \"This one is actually a little bit shorter, which is good. Some of the other ones, I think, were actually a little too long. And that allowed us to get a lot of content into them, but from a broadcasting standpoint, it made them a little problematic.\"\nThe show premieres next Tuesday night (clocking in under 2 hours this time) and promises a culinary excursion around all across Chicagoland. Trips to Maxwell Street, coverage of Chicago barbecue joints, experiencing tortilla creation, chowing down on pho, jibaritos, carnitas, tacos, polish, paczkis and the world of Chicago candy all get investigated in Foods of Chicago.\nMore from Geoffrey, including how he likes his beef and \"cheezborger cheezborger cheezborger\" after the jump.\nChicagoist: You're most well known for your river tours - the Chicago River twice, the Fox River...why did you make the switch to food for this new project?\nGeoffrey Baer: Well, in addition to being the producer and host of many of these pledge shows, I sort of run this unit that does these shows. Actually, this was brought to me by one of the producers in the unit, Dan Protess. This was really his baby, his passion, to do this show. He brought it to me a couple of years ago, and it took a few years for the time to arrive where the company would commit to doing the show. And maybe a year or so ago I was advocating for it in a meeting, and everyone just seemed to feel that the time was right.\nIt\u2019s a different approach to the subject than we\u2019ve taken before, so I think that excited all of us. These started out 13 years ago really very firmly rooted in architecture. Then they kinda morphed a little bit to architecture and history, and they kinda became a little more history than architecture. So this was just a different lens through which to look at this history of our city, and our area. And it just seemed like a time to take a new approach. We\u2019ve done these big tours of all the suburban regions, that was the most recent project, where we were going out to the northwest suburbs, the southwest, the south, the west, we\u2019d kinda done all those regions. And we were thinking about, \u201cwhat\u2019s next?\u201d And this just seemed like a perfect way to get a different view than what we already have.\nC: When you were going into this, what was your perspective and focus?\nGB: It\u2019s not a restaurant show, and it\u2019s not a cooking show. It\u2019s really a show about the history of the many diverse communities of Chicago as told through their food, or using their foods as a lens to learn about and understand all these different ethnic communities in Chicago. And also the business history of Chicago. We talk lot about the stockyards, and all the iconic foods that come out of Chicago. From Cracker Jack and Tootsie Rolls to Vienna beef and Jays potato chips. How all that figures into the growth of Chicago.\nC: Did you keep a running tally of the number of restaurants you went to?\nGB: Well, it was restaurants, and a number of people\u2019s homes and kitchens. Maybe close to a hundred. It certainly was in the realm of dozens.\nC: What was the criteria for where you decided to go?\nGB: There was no effort at all, or even need to say well, we couldn\u2019t do this show without this restaurant. It was what they had to tell us about a particular culture. So, the Chicago Brauhaus is a place to talk about German food in Chicago. Stefano\u2019s or Italian Village is a place to talk not only about Italian culture and Italian foods, but the history of Italians in Chicago.\nAnd there\u2019s all this fun stuff, too, about things that we think are from the native culture that were actually invented here. Italian beef is hilarious \u2013 nobody ate beef in Italy. They were eating vegetables in Italy, primarily. So the fact that Italian immigrants are famous for a beef sandwich, that\u2019s not even what they were primarily eating!\nAnd Chicken Vesuvio apparently was invented in Chicago. Flaming Saganaki was invented in Chicago. All these sort of indigenous things, or that we think of as indigenous are actually invented here. Some of these restaurants like the Greek Islands, they make the claim that they invented flaming saganaki. So we use that for a window on Greek foods, but then we also went into the back room of a Greek Orthodox church that has a kitchen, where church members were preparing feast meals for the church, and we talked about Greek foods there as well. So the restaurant criteria really had to do with telling the story of that particular community.\nC: How many of these places did you eat at?\nGB: Every single one.\nC: Was there anything you came across you didn\u2019t like?\nGB: I pretty much eat everything. Harry Kempf, the guy who owns Chicago Brauhaus, he tried to get me. One of the things they do there is steak tartare, And he was pretty sure that I wouldn\u2019t eat steak tartare. But I did \u2013 it\u2019s not something I would order. [laughs] You know, the Polish have czarnina, which is duck\u2019s blood soup. I was not on that shoot, but Dan tried the duck blood soup. At Carnitas Don Pedro in Pilsen, carnitas is basically a pig boiled in its own fat. I think, had I just eaten it without having been back in the kitchen watching them make it, I probably would have been totally fine. I was still pretty much fine with it, but having seen what was going on back in the kitchen\u2026\nC: What is your ethnic background?\nGB: Jewish. Eastern European Jewish.\nC: Did you take the opportunity to look into some of your own culture's food?\nGB: The guy who took us on the tour of Devon Avenue is a professor named Johannan Petrovski, and he is a Jewish Russian immigrant. The thing that\u2019s interesting that he talks about is how so many of these Jewish foods are pretty much adapted from the local foods in whatever region the Jews happen to be living in, because [historically] the Jews are constantly migrating, kicked out of one place, moving to another place.\nAnd they would sort of adapt the local food, like a bagel is called a bublik in Russia, and it looks just like a bagel! Kasha, rugula, gefilte fish is probably German that was adapted by the Jews. And then of course, the Jews, as they say, are constantly migrating, so they spread these foods around the world and they become known as Jewish food, but they\u2019re usually adapted from local culture.\nC: I hope you went to Manny's, and got some deli.\nGB: We went to Manny's just to show a few shots of it, so we could talk about kneidlach and kreplach and that kind of thing. That's kind of another place that we were able to talk about surprising and unexpected things. As a Jewish person myself, I would say many American Jews don't keep kosher, and are not strictly orthodox. So very often, nonjewish people would say to me \"Oh, you don't eat pork. Or \"oh, I guess I can't offer you this ham.\" As if no Jews ever eat pork or ham.\nWhen we went to Manny's, we also used that place to make the point that most Jewish restaurants aren't even kosher. Y'know, to the extent that Manny's is a Jewish restaurant, it's not a kosher restaurant. If you're kosher, you can't eat at Manny's.\nC: You did a lot of research about the Chicago hot dog - did you ever find any standard?\nGB: First of all, no. There are myriad variations on the Chicago hot dog, as long as there's no ketchup. I think universally, everyone in Chicago would agree, it ain't a chicago hot dog if it has ketchup on it. But basically, this german sausage gets an entree into various other ethnic communities by having some familiar ingredients on it.\nThere's a wonderful scholar who literally on the subject of the Chicago hot dog, his name is Bruce Kraig, he could totally deconstruct the Chicago hot dog. The pickle is from this culture, the relish is from that culture, this vegetable is from this culture, so really the hot dog is a metaphor for this wonderful intermingling of cultures that's so specific to Chicago. That's what's great about it.\nIt just depends on what neighborhood you're in, to some degree historically at least, what ingredients you're going to find on a hot dog there.\nIf you're in a Greek neighborhood you might find a more Greek style or Italian style accoutrements piled on. Cucumbers, celery salt... Tomatoes, I particularly remember Bruce Kraig theorizing that that's Mediterranean, and probably from the influence of the Greeks and Italians. And you know the other thing about the hot dog was that you can get a whole meal! With your meats and your vegetables and your bread all together, for not much money. It was kind of a way of making a whole meal out of your hot dog.\nC: And getting a salad on top.\nGB: Exactly. Drag it through the garden, as they say.\nC: What made you want to go to the Billy Goat?\nGB: Well, that's in our Greek section. You know, maybe that is an example of a place where, \"how can you do foods in Chicago and not talk about the Billy Goat?\" Maybe that is a restaurant that had to be in the show. What's interesting about the Greeks is that they, unlike other ethnic groups, they didn't originally serve their native food in their restaurants to the masses. Chinese were serving up Chinese foods, Italians were serving up Italian foods and it sort of caught on with the masses. The Greeks were peddlers, vegetable peddlers. And they sort of evolved into restaurant owners, but their menus were huge, and had every kind of food, from spaghetti to chop suey on them. And they were particularly big in diners, diner type food. So the Billy Goat is a quintessential sort of the bar and diner, and because it's sort of iconic and famous it seemed like a good one to use as our example, because it let us talk about Saturday Night Live, cheezborger cheezborger and all that stuff. And the curse.\nAnd something I didn't know which is that there is a name on the wall which is about 500 letters long, and if you can say that name, if you can pronounce it correctly, you get a free beer. Sam pronounces that name for us...\nC: So if you watch the program enough and practice...\nGB: Maybe, although I'm pretty good with languages but I don't think that's one that I would ever, ever get to say.\nThe other thing that's interesting is that that routine, the cheezborger cheezborger thing? That routine is probably almost 30 years ago? So there's a generation of people who have never even heard that. Our intern had never even heard of \"cheezborger cheezborger cheezborger,\" when we went out there to do that. To us it's such a famous thing, but to them if you're a history buff you might know it. Which really surprised me.\nC: What do you think surprised you the most during the process of putting the show together?\nGB: Those are always difficult questions for me to answer. I certainly was surprised by how many of these foods that we thought were indigenous were really invented in Chicago. I mean, I had heard of a lot of them, but the sheer number of them I found to be sort of surprising. I don't know if I'm veering away from your question, but I got to eat a Chicago onion. You know, the chicagua onion, which is what Chicago is named for. I didn't know that those really existed still, or that anyone knew exactly what onion the city was named for.\nBut they're around, and they're wild, and you know, who knows if this really is the chicagua onion, but it's something that's generally agreed on. And we pulled one out of the ground and used it in some native american cooking, so I thought that was pretty cool.\nC: Where did you find it?\nGB: North Park Village Nature Center. Just growing wild. You find them all over. It's kinda like a leek - I mean, if you looked at it growing out of the ground you actually probably wouldn't even recognize it as an onion. Because it's more like a leaf. But when you pull it up there's a bulb on the bottom of it. We didn't pull it up - you don't go around North Park nature center pulling plants out of the ground. But someone sort of surreptitiously handed one to us as we were getting ready to cook a meal there, so I take it that some naturalist got permission to pull one out for us. But don't try this at home! I don't want to encourage people to go out to North Park and pilfer the chicagua onions.\nC: Did it stink?\nGB: Oh no, no.\nC: Maybe if you had millions of them...\nGB: You know, that's true. I have a little onion patch in our back yard that's kind of gone crazy, because onions are very prolific, and man, every time you come out of my garage it just smells like onions right over there. So I can imagine what that must have smelled like.\nC: This might be the most important question of them all - and this is a two parter - how do you like your Italian beef and your hot dog?\nGB: Italian beef, dipped.\nC: Sweet or hot?\nGB: Oh, sweet. I like hot peppers but not on my italian beef. And I like my hot dog, like drag it through the garden.\nC: Everything.\nGB: Oh, everything on there. Particularly the flourescent green relish.\nC: Pickle spear?\nGB: You know...on the side.\nC: Cucumber?\nGB: Definitely. Oh, yeah.\nC: Tomato wedge?\nGB: Oh yeah.\nC: Celery salt?\nGB: Yes!\nC: It's gotta have the celery salt.\nGB: That's right! That made me think of something else, when you were saying that. One of the points we make in the show that I think is interesting is that really, c'mon, it's the same hot dog anywhere you go. Especially if it's Vienna Beef. It's the same hot dog. And yet people will argue to the grave that this is the best hot dog stand, or that one is the best hot dog stand. It really tells you it's not about the flavor, you know? It's about the cultural connection to a place that makes people feel so strongly, I think. Because the flavor is going to be more or less the same no matter where you go.\nC: What do you picture when you imagine the Chicago hot dog stand?\nGB: Gotta have outdoor seats, for sure. Should be small, should be a little dirty. You know, what everyone else pictures, the menu boards on the wall...\nC: Is it Gene & Judes? Byrons? Superdawg?\nGB: Well, I don't think it so much is Superdawg. I love Flaurie and Maurie over there, but Superdawg is more of a 50s drive-in concept. It's more like the one at Clark and Wrightwood...Wiener's Circle. It's the one that's always sort of talked about as the quintessntial hot dog stand.\nC: If I gave you $10 and told you to go anywhere in the area, where do you go first?\nGB: I loved Steve's Shish Kabob in Palos Hills, it was fantastic. I absolutely loved it.\nC: Falafel? Shawarma?\nGB: Yeah, sure, falafel and shwarma, but just kinda the way it was all presented, and the quality of the food there, just outstanding. You just wanted one?\nC: It's your ten bucks.\nGB: Well, I'd take about a third of that, and go down to the new Maxwell Street Market. And get a real Mexican taco at one of the taco stands there, where they make the tortilla right there. If you want to talk about a surprise, that was something I was totally unaware of. I really didn't know what a real mexican taco was.\nOne of the things you learn about in this show so much is how assimilated and americanized all this food becomes. The pizza becomes something they would never see in Italy, the Chinese food is nothing like you'd find in China. That's not just inherently in Chicago, but everywhere in this country.\nSo what you think of as a taco, with a hard shell and all this lettuce and tomato and sour cream and ground beef - doesn't even begin to resemble a real mexican taco! A real Mexican taco is not one but two small corn tortillas stacked on top of each other. And on top of that is just chunks of meat, cilantro, and maybe one or two other ingredients on there. And that's it. And you put some sauce of your choice on there, and there's pickled vegetables on there, and it is so superior to what we have come to call a taco.\nC: It's no Taco Bell. And it's cheap.\nGB: And it's cheap. Very cheap. That's another thing I'd do with my money. And I'd have money left over, then, to get a jibarito at Borinquen. It's a sandwich but instead of bread they use plantains. Wonderful.\nC: That is a well-spent ten bucks.\nadelicioushistoryamericanjewsandchickenvesuvioandibarbecueChicagodanprotessfromcrackerjackhistoryHistoryinterviewInterviewMaxwell StreetmaxwellstreetmoneyPBSwttw",

        "raw_content": "Of Sea Cucumbers and Men6 min read\nDecember 6, 2017 October 10, 2018 Louisa Lim\nNot as sexy as the shark \u2013 by Louisa Lim\nReviled in the West, the slimy slug-like bottom-feeders of the ocean known as sea-cucumbers have recently won another moniker: \u201cthe gold of the sea\u201d. Skyrocketing demand for this prized feature of Chinese wedding banquets has driven up the price of beche-de-mer, causing knock-on impacts ranging from international sea-cucumber smuggling syndicates to a thriving black market to a collapse in sea-cucumber stocks to starvation in some parts of the world.\nThe fate of the lowly sea cucumber is a cautionary tale into how one country\u2019s growing hunger for a particular food source can reverberate into unforeseen ecological and social crises on the other side of the world. As China has become richer, its appetite for seafood has multiplied seven-fold from 1980 to almost 35kg per capita per year today. Almost 40% of global sea cucumber fisheries are now considered overfished, and at least 24 countries are closing \u2013 or attempting to close \u2013 their sea cucumber fisheries to allow stocks to recover.\n\u201cIn the Philippines, you\u2019ve seen a transition from a high-value low-volume fishery \u2013 where they\u2019re targeting very high value, excellent species but only relatively low volumes \u2013 into a low-value high-volume fishery instead,\u201d says Michael Fabinyi of the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), who studies the international trade in beche-de-mer. He notes this pattern is repeated in many other countries: \u201cYou\u2019ve seen them essentially fishing down the food chain, or the sea cucumber chain.\u201d\nMichael Fabinyi and Kate Barclay with a display of sea cucumbers (Louisa Lim)\nThis pattern is emerging in one country after another as sea cucumber traders move in and, working with local fishermen, strip the stock, first from shallow waters and then from deeper waters until all species of beche-de-mer are entirely depleted. Local governments often only close the fishery after it\u2019s been overexploited, according to Hakai magazine, who note this has happened in Papua New Guinea, The Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Samoa and Kiribati. By the time moratoria are imposed, international sourcing networks have moved elsewhere.\nAdult sea cucumbers are echinoderms, like starfish and sea urchins, which makes them easy to harvest, according to Kate Barclay, also from UTS. \u201cSome of the highest value varieties are quite easily fished and are very slow-moving. Sandfish, for example, are some of the most favoured tropical sea cucumber varieties, and they tend to live in seagrass beds which are in shallow waters. They\u2019re very easy for anyone to fish. You don\u2019t even need a boat. You don\u2019t need to dive, and so there has just been serial overfishing all round the world, not just in the Pacific.\u201d\nIn remote coastal communities as far apart as Papua New Guinea and Mexico, the growing Chinese demand for the spiky sea creatures has entirely transformed local economies. The humble sea cucumber has become a cash cow, easily harvested even by children and requiring no high-tech inputs, or even refrigeration after harvest, since they are often dried before trading.\nSome communities have become single-crop economies, entirely dependent on sea cucumber harvests for their survival. In parts of Papua New Guinea, villagers stopped growing their own crops, as the \u201cgold of the sea\u201d became ever more lucrative. In China, dried sea cucumbers sell online for up to 1000 dollars per kilogram, while some species sell in markets for as much as 3000 dollars a kilo, despite a recent drop in prices due to a clampdown on corruption which has led to a government campaign against conspicuous consumption of luxury food items.\nHowever, such changes left these communities unprepared for what was to come once Chinese demand had stripped clean the ocean floors. By 2009, Papua New Guinean sea cucumber stocks had collapsed and a moratorium was announced, banning all trade. Villages that had been entirely dependent on sea cucumber sales suffered immensely since they had let their own crops wither. There were even reports of starvation, and Barclay concludes, \u201cThere does seem to have been hunger in those communities.\u201d\nThe warty sea cucumber (Wikimedia Commons)\nThe unusual biology of the sea cucumber \u2013 whose eggs and sperm are fertilized in the water column \u2013 means that the population needs to be quite dense before reproduction can occur. Barclay explains, \u201cYou could overfish to the point that there\u2019s still quite a lot of visible sea cucumbers around but if the concentration isn\u2019t dense enough, they won\u2019t be able to reproduce. Even if you stopped fishing at that point, the population would continue to decline, and will become extinct in that area.\u201d\nThis means sea cucumber populations recover extremely slowly, with Papua New Guinea taking almost eight years to reopen its fisheries this April, and Tonga taking a decade to rebuild its stocks. When Tonga ended its moratorium in 2009, sea cucumber stocks were depleted once again within just three years.\nThe decline of the sea cucumber could have a devastating environmental impact, since they are critical to marine ecosystems, cleaning the sea floor of waste materials and clearing algae, turning them into nutrients that other marine life can use. If the sea cucumber population is decimated, then the detritus in the water will not be cleared, allowing algae to flourish and begin to dominate coral reefs. Their alkaline defecations also help protect coral reefs from ocean acidification. Today as many as 16 species of sea cucumber now face extinction.\nYet for vulnerable communities, the lure of the money is too great. In Papua New Guinea, sea cucumber is expected to bring $15 million into national coffers this year alone. Because of the huge profits involved in trade, the moratoria are proving hard to enforce, with trade still continuing in defiance of policy or without proper permits. Other illegal transactions include \u201cgrey trade\u201d with traders smuggling sea cucumber into the mainland from Hong Kong, to avoid 30% tariffs on the product. Illegal sea cucumber trade has been reported as far afield as New Zealand, Mexico, Sri Lanka and San Diego, where a father and a son were found guilty of smuggling illegally harvested cucumbers worth $17 million into the US.\nBut for Chinese newlyweds, the cachet is still a lure, with happy couples continuing to serve up sea cucumber dishes, often blithely unaware of the ecological cost to marine environments. Recent work done by Fabinyi and Barclay shows that most Chinese consumers do not regard environmental sustainability as their responsibility, instead believing it to be the job of national governments in the countries of production.\nFor environmentalists, one model has been basketball star Yao Ming\u2019s high-profile campaign for Wild Aid to stop Chinese consumers from eating another wedding staple, shark fin. That has led to a 50% drop in shark deaths. But Fabinyi isn\u2019t holding out much hope that beche de mer will get its own superstar saviour, commenting ruefully, \u201cthe sea cucumber isn\u2019t quite as sexy, shall we say, as the shark.\u201d \u220e\nThis essay is a companion piece to this week\u2019s episode of the Little Red Podcast, hosted by Graeme Smith and Louisa Lim and distributed by Chinoiresie at Australian National University.\nHeader image from Flickr by sarahhsia.",

Indeed, would not a church seek catharsis wistful or inspired during worship services and use music to obtain it?\nIn Demikovich v St. Andrew the Apostle Parish, Memorandum and Order, (USDC, ND Ill.

        "title": "Rise and Fall of Venice",
        "raw_content": "Rise and Fall of Venice\nBy the end of the 13th century, the maritime empire created by the Italian city-state of Venice had arguably become the greatest Mediterranean power since Rome. Venice dominated trade between Europe and Asia. Its influence extended from the city proper, at the western edge of the old Byzantine Empire, to the eastern Mediterranean and the Black Sea. Roughly two centuries later, however, the Venetian Empire\u2014the Stato da M\u00e0r\u2014had started to decline. Although the city retained its independence for another 300 years, it became strategically irrelevant in the larger scheme of things.\nThe rise and fall of Venice has by and large escaped close study by students of strategy. Of all the possible contenders for empire at the beginning of the second millennium A.D., why did the Venetians enjoy this degree of success? Although the empire by historical standards had a great run, we are compelled to inquire about the reasons for its decline and extinction\u2014was this the inevitable product of historical or material forces beyond human control, or the result of avoidable political and military missteps?\nRoger Crowley's recent popular account, City of Fortune: How Venice Ruled the Seas, has brought the story to the general reading public. Crowley tells a colorful tale of blind doges (the chief magistrate of the republic), plagues, pirates, sea battles, and diplomatic intrigue. Crowley's Venice is a state\u2014really a fiscal machine\u2014run by and for entrepreneurs, the scheming Venetians always on the look out for the main chance. The ultimate fate of the empire, Crowley suggests, was that of all exploitative colonial regimes. He warns about the vulnerabilities of far-flung possessions linked by sea power and of a business model become suddenly obsolete.\nThe debate over the reasons for the rise and fall of great powers is a hardy perennial for Americans, especially at times of national anxiety over our domestic health and our place in the world. (See Robert Kagan's new book, The World America Made, and the widespread concern that it has triggered.) Today we wonder if we are in terminal decline, weighted down by our own far-flung vulnerable strategic infrastructure, which appears ripe to be supplanted by a reinvigorated Chinese civilization\u2014just as we feared the economic juggernauts of Japan and Germany during the 1980s, OPEC during the 1970s, and the Soviet military-ideological threat throughout the Cold War. To state the problem this way is not to say that past threats were exaggerated (although some surely were) or that we are destined to triumph in the future. Nor is it to argue that American global primacy is forever a necessary or sufficient condition for the more perfect Union to which we ultimately aspire.\nNevertheless, at least for the moment, \"it is what it is,\" as Tiger Woods likes to say. So we might usefully study cases like Venice to glean whatever insights we can about the nature of hegemonic or\u2014to use the politically incorrect term\u2014imperial rule. Here, we can turn with profit to Great Powers and Geopolitical Change (2006) by Professor Jakub Grygiel of the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, at Johns Hopkins University. Grygiel looks at the histories of Venice, the Ottoman Empire, and Ming China in the global 15th century. These great powers both created and were confronted with dramatic changes in geopolitics, as new means of transportation and trade routes and continents were discovered. Grygiel concludes that, in each case, successful strategic adaptation to geographical features, particularly lines of communication, was the most critical factor in establishing and maintaining a dominant position in the international arena.\nExperts on Medieval Europe and the Mediterranean might quarrel with particular aspects of Grygiel's understanding of the Venetian history. Nevertheless, in much the same way as Edward Luttwak's The Grand Strategy of the Roman Empire(1976), Grygiel informs by posing the right questions. His conclusions about Venetian imperial overstretch differ from those of Crowley, particularly in regards to the character of the gap between resources and commitments.\nTo make a long story short, Venice rose to great power status because its foreign policy made full use of the city's advantageous location and resource base. Grygiel acknowledges that geography cannot explain completely the grand strategy of Venice:\nThe commercial and adventurous spirit of the small Venetian population, their capacity to increase their wealth rapidly, their renowned diplomatic genius, and the stability of their domestic institutions all help to explain the success of this empire. Similarly, the weakening Byzantium, coupled with the confusing political situation in Italy, provided the setting for Venice to develop and expand.\nThat said, Venice had a strategic choice\u2014it could have focused its political attention on the nearer territories of Italy and Central Europe, as did many of its neighbors. Instead, it expanded definitively toward the eastern Mediterranean.\nVenice's insular geographic location in Italy, and its access to critical resources, made this possible. Rialto, the main island of the city of Venice, was separated from the mainland by a few miles of water, which served to protect the islands from assaults from the mainland. On the eastern side, long sand bars protected the lagoon from storms and from seaborne invasion from the Adriatic. The Venetians reinforced these natural defenses by planting trees and building forts.\nGrygiel points out that its insular location allowed Venice to detach itself from the complicated and deadly politics of the Italian mainland. To be sure, it had to exert some control over adjacent terraferma in order to maintain access to the internal Italian markets, prevent the rise of naval threats in the Adriatic, and guarantee an uninterrupted supply of foodstuffs and fresh water to the city. Venice also exercised some control over cities like Ravenna and Cervia to prevent them from developing competing shipbuilding and salt industries. Venice skillfully played the balance of power game to keep Milan, Florence, the Pontifical State, and other Italian powers at a distance, without becoming involved in entangling alliances or fighting on the mainland. \"This low \u2018border pressure' allowed Venice to concentrate its resources on distant regions,\" Grygiel argues. \"A grand strategy that transcended the lagoons, the Adriatic Sea, and even the Mediterranean would not have been possible without this fundamental geopolitical reality.\"\nVenice had two other distinct geopolitical advantages. First, it had easy access to two vital natural resources, salt (available locally) and timber (around the lagoons, on the slope of the Alps, and on the Dalmatian coast). Second, it found itself on the strategic frontier between Western Europe and the Byzantine Empire (later between Western Europe and the Ottoman Empire). Venice was situated at the terminus of the key trade route from the East (i.e. Asia), the northern Adriatic, which was the most viable point of access to the European markets for Eastern goods. By serving as an intermediary, Venice gained not only immense wealth but also political leverage over powers much larger than itself.\nVenice was by no means a passive intermediary, however. To protect its trade routes, Venice developed a system of bases and allies eastward, following clear geographic objectives that accorded with the naval technology of the time. An uninterrupted string of secure bases was necessary to make sea travel safe and regular for the commercial vessels of the day, which typically hugged the coastline. This entailed imperial expansion in four geostrategic steps, which took place between 1000 and 1204 A.D.: the establishment of control over the Gulf of Venice, the conquest of Dalmatia, the security of Corfu and the entrance to the Adriatic, and the extension of control over Constantinople and the eastern Mediterranean.\nThereafter, Venice had to manage the network of bases and ports that safeguarded its power. A few locations were particularly important\u2014Zara and Ragusa on the Dalmatian coast, two ports in the Ionian Sea (Coron and Modon, known as the \"two eyes of the Republic\"), and the island of Crete. Beyond that, the network was constantly rearranged to reflect shifts in Asian trade routes and changes in political conditions in the eastern Mediterranean. Venice was able to adjust to the ebb and flow of trade through the three traditional outlets from the East (Constantinople and the Black Sea; Syria, Palestine, and the Persian Gulf; and Egypt and the Red Sea). As a result it could endure the attacks of other powers (Byzantium, Genoa, Ottomans) that sometimes deprived it of portions of the empire without threatening the empire as a whole.\nVenice's direct control of territory outside of these bases was limited, but this fact did not properly reflect the degree of its power. As Alfred Thayer Mahan appreciated, strategic advantage and great-power status could be obtained cost-effectively by controlling a few small but pivotal locations. Grygiel quotes historian John Godfrey on Venice's strategic acumen: \"The Venetians were to develop an unerring eye for good harbors, trade routes, and strategic islands. They always knew just how much of an area it was necessary to occupy, and they were not interested in conquest for its own sake.'' The Venetians preferred wherever possible to use diplomacy, subsidies, and commercial sanctions rather than violence to expand and maintain the empire. The pope and the Western Empire otherwise might have responded to what seemed to be excessive Venetian military ambitions abroad by forming a counterbalancing coalition of mainland powers that would threaten Venice's commercial position in Italy and even its security.\nAccording to Grygiel, Venice declined for two main reasons, one of which was largely outside of its control (the change of trade routes), the other the result of a misguided geostrategy (becoming embroiled on the Italian mainland). \"The strength of a geostrategy depends on its mirroring the geopolitical reality,\" Grygiel writes. \"When the strategy diverges from that reality or when the reality changes without a corresponding change in the strategy, the state loses its influence in international relations.\"\nThe radical change in the underlying geopolitical reality was the emergence of an alternative trade route to the East, through the Atlantic around Africa, which bypassed the old Mediterranean paths dominated by Venice and threatened by the Ottoman Empire. There were also new trading opportunities for the Atlantic powers (Portugal, Spain, France, the Netherlands, and Britain) with the New World. As a result, Venice lost the role of Europe's entrep\u00f4t. Venice was aware of the geopolitical shift once news arrived of Vasco de Gama's voyage to India. To get around the problem, Venice encouraged efforts to build a Suez Canal to create a viable maritime alternative. Excavation work actually began in 1586 but nothing came of the project. The Mediterranean soon became a regional sea as the bulk of European trade moved to the oceans, where Venice could not compete. Her ships were not outfitted for long sea voyages, especially in rough oceanic waters. The Atlantic caravel was more seaworthy than the Mediterranean galley. Venice failed to modernize its naval force and continued to live in an earlier technological era.\nThe second factor in Venice's decline, according to Grygiel, was the republic's decision in the 15th century to become much more involved in the politics of Italy, and to acquire territorial control of neighboring regions. Up to that point interventions by Venice in northern Italy had been sporadic. The Venetians had been averse to the acquisition of territory on the mainland and had no grand plan to conquer the region. They were content instead to dominate the sea and to control a few small but strategic possessions. The reasons for their change of heart are complicated and controversial. One reason was a loss of confidence in their natural defense structures. After Venice's main Italian imperial rival, Genoa, nearly overcame these barriers in the \"War of Chioggia\" (1378-1381), Venetian leaders concluded that their power, based on access to the Adriatic and to Mediterranean sources of wealth and food, was more fragile than they thought. They decided to try to establish a solid base on the Italian mainland, to complement the well-developed maritime empire.\nIn addition, says Grygiel, the growing power of Milan under the Visconti family in the early 15th century threatened to alter the map of Italy. A unified regime in northern Italy presented a threat to all the other cities and states on the peninsula. In reaction, major Italian cities, notably Florence, felt compelled to embark on their own drive for hegemony. Venice responded by expanding its security perimeter through the conquest of a number of nearby cities, including Vicenza, Verona, and Padua. The ease of these conquests obscured the fact that Venetian power and prestige was increasingly committed directly to the mainland\u2014especially because they removed a critical buffer zone between Venice and Milan, which had previously provided diplomatic options for compromise short of war between the two powers.\nThis account necessarily simplifies the complicated story of European and Italian politics in the 15th and 16th centuries. As Grygiel notes, Venice also found itself hard-pressed to compete with the increasingly well-organized West European powers, which were developing the administrative means to harness their internal and imperial resources through taxation, and to translate these resources into impressive military capabilities. Venice's decision to expand its territory on the Italian mainland was driven in part by the need to increase its taxable territory and thereby field (or pay for) armies capable of standing up to those of France, the Habsburgs, and the Ottomans.\nGrygiel cites the critical internal debates over Venetian policy in 1421-1423, over whether or not to intervene directly on the side of Florence against Milan in their ongoing struggles for control of northern Italy. The reigning doge, Tommaso Mocenigo, argued that the strength of Venice rested in its maritime empire in the East. Neither Venice nor Milan could gain much from a war with each other. Mocenigo recommended that Venice remain neutral and that it avoid the temptation to expand its Italian territory further. He acknowledged that the lagoons were no longer a sufficient protection, but believed that the defensible, hilly region of Verona should be the farthest Venetian inland stronghold. Florence and other cities could balance Milan by themselves. Mocenigo essentially advocated the traditional Venetian policy of strategic detachment from Italian politics.\nThe pro-Florentine and pro-intervention camp was led by the young Francesco Foscari. Foscari argued that the security of the two cities was indivisible: what harmed Florence harmed Venice. Foscari also defined Venetian interests on the basis of domestic similarities rather than geostrategic interests. Florence was a fellow republic fighting against the encroaching tyranny of Milan. The preservation of liberty at home required the preservation of liberty abroad. Foscari's argument won, and he was elected doge. Shortly thereafter Venice entered an Italian war as a Florentine ally. Venice jettisoned the role of offshore balancer and became deeply engaged in mainland politics. As Grygiel concludes, \"[t]he resulting struggle with Milan and the defense of its Italian territories absorbed much of Venice's energy.\"\nAccording to Grygiel, \"[t]he financial and military costs associated with this land expansion were large but paled in comparison with the political.\" Venice increasingly inspired jealousy and fear throughout northern Italy and in the rest of Europe, as it seemed to aspire to become a dominant power on land as well as on the sea. Venice's resources were inadequate to the larger task, however. The Venetians neglected the upkeep of their Mediterranean base infrastructure, even before the decline in trade set in. To make matters worse, in 1499 the Venetians allied with the new French king, Louis XII, to assist them in conquering Milan. The alliance was a disaster. Machiavelli argued that it brought ruin to Venice because Venice was the weaker power and because after the allied victory, \u2018\u2018the weaker prince remain[ed] prisoner'' of the stronger. Outside powers, particularly Spain and France, continued to descend upon Italy in a divide-and-conquer strategy.\nVenice soon became a second-rank power contained and balanced on the Italian mainland and severely weakened in the Mediterranean. The choice to become entangled in Italian politics, rather than the rise of the Ottoman Empire, was the decisive factor in its decline. \"Venice mangled its grand strategy in Italy,\" Grygiel concludes. \"It lacked strategic vision and became entangled in a \u2018war of ambition'.... By becoming involved on the Italian mainland Venice lost its geostrategic detachment from the deadly balance-of-power politics. Its power was wasted in futile territorial conquests.\"\nFrom his study of the Venetian empire, Grygiel draws three conclusions:\nFirst, the geopolitical reality, understood as a map that changes with new discoveries, displacements of trade routes owing to technological advances, and shifts in the locale of power, is a powerful variable that can influence the fate of a state.... Furthermore, the ability to formulate and implement a foreign policy that reflects the underlying geopolitical reality is the key to achieving and maintaining a position of power, if not supremacy. A state's geostrategy must be flexible enough to respond to changes. The less flexible it is, the greater the dependence of the state on the immutability of the geopolitical situation.... Finally, in order to maintain an empire it is necessary to avoid premature geostrategic changes (e.g., through retrenchment or further expansion). A grand strategy advocating the abandonment of traditional allies or bases because of fatigue or lack of domestic interest, and not because of fundamental changes in the geopolitical map, undermines the strength of a state. Such a change can be damaging not only to the imperial framework but also to the very independence of the state in question.\nGreat powers are more than their homeland, says Grygiel. They are global in nature, at least virtually so, because economic welfare and political power are often dependent on distant regions. Venice failed to pay adequate attention to its strategic bases and became excessively embroiled in land conflicts in Italy. By strengthening its presence in the \"near abroad,\" Venice actually weakened its overall power position and provoked, or enabled, the growing enmity of other Italian cities and the great powers of Europe.\nAs to this latter point, we might wonder whether Venice's shift to the mainland might have been as inevitable as the loss of wealth and power caused by the shift in trade routes. In that sense, Venice found itself in the position of the British Empire at times during its history, notably 1914, when it faced major continental threats to the balance of power and felt that it could not remain aloof, even though the resources it would have to commit to a continental war might weaken its hold over the empire. More astute British diplomacy prior to 1914 might have staved off the dilemma, just as Grygiel argues that more astute Venetian diplomacy might have avoided the cycle of wars with Milan and eventually with other powers. But sometimes strategy has to be applied to minimize the damage of a tragic situation largely beyond one's control, not to maximize the opportunities of a favorable status quo.",

This side is associated with money, power, health and family.\nSome Modern psychologists also believe that getting out on the left side of bed is best as the left brain controls rational thought and logic.

        "raw_content": "Stones tell tales of climate impacts\nJune 16th, 2016, by Kieran Cooke\nBeehive-shaped monastic cells at the Skellig Michael world heritage site off southwest Ireland.\nImage: Don Richards via Flickr\nSimple devices embedded at heritage sites in Ireland will be analysed over a 100-year period to gauge the long-term effects of climate change on historic monuments.\nLONDON, 16 June, 2016 \u2013 The main focus of climate change is on its potentially devastating impact on humans, on flora and fauna and on the Earth\u2019s water systems and crops. But what about its effect on the built environment and historic monuments?\nIs the fabric of ancient Greek temples or the Egyptian pyramids in danger from increases in temperatures or sudden rain deluges? Will world heritage sites such as Machu Picchu, Angkor Wat or the Great Wall of China survive in a rapidly warming world?\nResearchers from the University of Lincoln in the UK and the Dublin Institute of Technology in Ireland have come up with a simple, inexpensive and easily-maintained tool that they hope will show clearly just how historic monuments will react to changes in climate.\nFive 50mm stone cubes are attached to a stainless steel bedding plate. Each cube is different: Portland limestone, and Peakmoor sandstone, both from the UK, and two consisting of manufactured substances \u2212 one poured concrete, the other brick.\nThe fifth stone cube is what\u2019s called site-specific, consisting of the same stone as that of the monument where the row of stones and its bedding plate \u2013 called the Legacy Tool Indicator (LegIT) \u2013 is located.\nOver various periods, the stones will be taken off their mounts and analysed and measured. This will be carried out in tandem with an examination of climate records from each site where the LegIT tool is placed.\n\u201cThe LegIT will illustrate actual weathering as it occurs on heritage sites,\u201d says Cathy Daly, lecturer in conservation at the University of Lincoln and the author of the report on the stone monitoring device.\n\u201cThe hope is that it will indeed be a legacy \u2212 a resource for conservators and heritage managers of the future\u201d\n\u201cRelating this data to long-term climate records will enable an understanding of the influence of climate change on deterioration processes.\u201d\nThe aim is to continue this monitoring process for an extended period \u2013 up to 100 years \u2013 passing on data from one generation of researchers to the next.\nResearchers say that such a project is cheap to run \u2013 an important factor for often cash-strapped heritage sites, so that funds do not have to be spent on investing in and maintaining computerised equipment.\nAnalysis will be made of how any build-up of salt in the atmosphere affects the stones, how chemicals eat away at surfaces, and how microbiological activity such as the growth of fungi, algae and lichens \u2013 influenced by changes in climate \u2013 can damage the composition of buildings.\nDaly says these are all factors causing concern at heritage sites in western Europe as the climate changes.\nThe LegIT has already been installed at five national monuments in Ireland. The megalithic World Heritage site of Br\u00fa na B\u00f3inne in County Meath and the monastery of Clonmacnoise in County Offaly are both rural, while the archaeological site of the Rock of Cashel in County Tipperary is semi-urban, and Dublin Castle is urban.\nThe second World Heritage site chosen is Skellig Michael, a rocky outcrop off the southwest coast of Ireland that in ancient times was the site of a monastic settlement, but has been uninhabited since the late 12th century.\nThe first stones were put in place in 2011, and the project has had some teething problems. One of the cubes was stolen, and some stones started to crack. But the researchers remain optimistic.\n\u201cBy the end of 2016, one full set of exposure measurements will be completed and it will be possible to make some early assessments on the success of this pilot study,\u201d Daly says.\n\u201cThe hope is that the LegIT will indeed be a legacy \u2212 a resource for conservators and heritage managers of the future wishing to understand in real terms how climate change is affecting the sites and monuments in their care.\u201d \u2013 Climate News Network\nclimate change, emissions, Pollution, Warming\n\u00ab Record CO2 levels signal sizzling summers Warming raises global economic threats \u00bb",

Nick Saban and his coaching staff have done it again on the recruiting trail.\nIn a press conference televised live on ESPNU Wednesday afternoon from his high school, Cameron Robinson, 247Sports.com\u2018s No. 1 player at any position in the Class of 2014, announced that he has verbally committed to play his collegiate football at Alabama. The West Monroe, La., offensive tackle opted for the Tide over the other member of his Top Two, LSU.\nThe verbal to the Tide comes a handful of days after Robinson\u2019s good friend, four-star Monroe, La., wide receiver Cameron Sims, committed to UA,\n(Writer\u2019s note: it\u2019s at this point in the program where we, as always, note that verbal commitments are non-binding and nothing is official until pen is put to National Letter of Intent paper)\nRobinson plans to graduate high school in December and, at least for now, enroll at Alabama in January.\nThe 6-6, 320-pound Robinson had narrowed down his choices to Alabama and LSU in late May, eschewing planned visits to schools like Georgia and Texas A&M. As recently as late July, Robinson denied that he had a favorite among the two.\n\u201cNeither school has really separated themselves from each other,\u201d Robinson said. \u201cPeople are talking and don\u2019t know what they\u2019re talking about. Neither school has led for me. I don\u2019t have a lead school other than those two.

Suffice to say, he\u2019s the consensus No. 1 offensive lineman in next year\u2019s class.\nThe fact that the Tide landed a verbal from one of the top players in the country, though, is hardly a surprise, even as they went into LSU\u2019s backyard to do so. Rivals ranks Alabama\u2019s 2014 recruiting class \u2014 19 commitments, 13 of them four-star players \u2014 as the No. 1 class in the country. Since 2008, Saban\u2019s second year in Tuscaloosa, the Tide has claimed that recruiting service\u2019s top class a whopping five times. The only time in that six-year stretch they weren\u2019t the No. 1 class was 2010 when they were No. 5.\nUA\u2019s worst finish under Saban was the coach\u2019s first year (No. 10, 2007). To put the recruiting success with Saban involved into perspective, the Tide finished No. 30 (2002), No. 49 (2003), No. 24 (2004), No. 18 (2005) and No. 11 (2006) in the five years prior to Saban\u2019s arrival.\nRoll Damn Tide indeed.",

Alabama received 48 of a possible 51 first-place votes to remain on top of the Super 16 Poll once again, with Georgia and LSU each receiving one of the remaining first-place ballots submitted this week.\nLike in the AP and coaches polls, Alabama\u2019s ownership of first-place votes has trended up each week the Super 16 has been released. Alabama received 36 first-place votes in the preseason Super 16 Poll and has managed to add to their total each successive week the poll has been released.\nThis week\u2019s Super 16 poll saw some newcomers after a week of upsets and critical outcomes across the nation. At No. 13, Michigan is back in the Super 16 poll where they started in the preseason ranking. The Wolverines are back for the first time since opening the season with a loss at Notre Dame. UCF, who has continued to trend upward in the overall voting since the preseason poll, has finally made their debut in the Super 16, coming in at No. 14 this week. After a brief drop off the poll last week, Wisconsin is back, this week taking No. 15. And at No. 16 is Kentucky, following the Wildcats taking down Mississippi State, who went from being No. 13 to one of the last few schools to receive any votes overall.\nOklahoma State, Mississippi State, and Virginia Tech each received votes this week but all three fell out of the top 16 after suffering losses this past weekend. Other schools receiving votes after not receiving any last week are Miami, Texas, Duke, South Carolina, Texas Tech, and USF.\nSuper 16 Poll \u2013 Week 5\nAs a disclaimer, three contributors to College Football Talk are voters in the Super 16 Poll; Zach Barnett, Bryan Fischer, and myself, Kevin McGuire.",

The book draws on (and presents) a large amount of unpublished archival material, including almost unprecedented surviving correspondence between and around these Renaissance princely rulers. Using these sources, Cockram shows Isabella and Francesco's strategic teamwork in action, illuminating tactics of collaboration and dissimulation. She also reveals behind-the-scenes diplomatic activity; court procedures; sexual politics and seduction; gift-giving and network-building; rivalries, intrigues and assassinations. Several epistolary themes emerge: insights into the couple's communication practices and double-dealing, their use of intermediaries, and attention to security matters. This book's analysis of Isabella's co-rule with her husband, supported by other members of the Gonzaga dynasty, sees her sometimes in the role of subordinate partner, sometimes guiding the couple's actions. It shows how, despite appearances at times, the couple shared common diplomatic policy as well as human, material, and cultural resources; joint administration; and the exercise of authority and justice. Thus emerges a three-dimensional picture of the mechanisms of power and power sharing in the age of Machiavelli.\nIsabella d'Este and Francesco Gonzaga\nMore from Francesco In The First Book Systematically To Give Evidence Of Conjugal Co-rule At An Italian Renaissance Court, And The First Full Length Scholarly Study Of Isabella D'Este And Francesco Gonzaga, Sarah Cockram Shows Their Relationship In An Entirely New Light.

They have served a purely utilitarian purpose for farming, transport and food. They have been our artistic and spiritual inspiration. Horses have been symbolic, spiritual animals. The raw corporeal power and keen sensitive, sharp witted demeanor of horses have made them the endless subjects of art throughout history.\nThe horse evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years ago and was only domesticated on a wide-spread scale from 4,000 BC.\nThe Lascaux Cave Paintings\nThe Lascaux Caves are one of the oldest examples of Paleolithic cave art that depicts horses among other animals. This cave art located in the region of Dordogne, southwestern France is dated to 17,300 years old. The artists led a life that was respectful and reverent to the raw power of animals. The art depicts the real life ecological relationships between animals. There is a bison-lion-horse depiction as well as a auroch-horse-deer-bear depiction. These animals would have coexisted in the same environmental conditions.\nLascaux Cave painting of a horse Image Source\nCeltic Goddess: Epona\nThe horse was important in ancient Celtic-Gaulish-Roman tribes. One of the most important deities was Epona, also known as the horse-mother or the protector of donkeys, mules and horses. She was worshiped by many tribes throughout Europe and also had a cult within the borders of Rome, the only Celtic goddess to have this honour. She was particularly used as a cult of fertility and her benevolent presence was found in bountiful ears of grain and a bumper number of foals in the spring time. Epona and her horses were also travelling guardians protecting human souls on their journey to the afterlife.\nA relief of Epona, flanked by two pairs of horses, from Roman Macedonia.\nA relief of the Gaulish/Celtic horse goddess Epona from Salonica, Greek Macedonia, 4th century CE. According to the museum\u2019s label, Roman emperor Galerius may have been responsible for introducing the worship of Epona at Salonica.\nThe Scottish legend of the Kelpie is a water dwelling creature that inhabits the lochs and bodies of water in Scotland. According to folklore it shape-shifts from a horse into a human form and was said to be dangerous to humans.\nIn Falkirk, Scotland two gigantic 30 metre steel horse monuments weigh collectively over 50 tonnes. These horses are dedicated to the Scottish legend of the kelpie, a mythical equine water-dwelling creature. According to sculptor Andy Scott, The Kelpies were a nod of respect to the endurance of horses and their historical contribution to Clyde Valley and the landscape of the inner waterways.\n\u201cI see The Kelpies as a personification of local and national equine history, of the lost industries of Scotland.\u201d said Scott. \u201cI also envisage them as a symbol of modern Scotland \u2013 proud and majestic, of the people and the land.\u201d\nAfter the Industrial Revolution, where did all the horses go?\nHumans quickly embraced the mechanical superiority of horsepower in cars and omnibuses over horses. Humans were dismayed and disgusted by the fact that horses ate and shat all over the place, leaving in their wake a trail of manure.\nHorse manure was the bane of existence for every Victorian town planner. In 1894, the Times of London estimated that by 1950, every street in the city would be buried in nine feet of horse manure. Also, despite their comparably slow speed, horses were responsible for a great number of human deaths from road accidents during the pre-industrial age.\nThe death knell rapidly sounded for the urban domesticated horse. Where did they go? Horse populations fell dramatically with the onset of the Industrial Revolution, and the remaining horses that did breed, were bred purely for the race track or for entertainment purposes like in circuses, leisurely and quaint rides, or petting zoos.\nBloodsports, Fascinators and Fillies\nThe glamour, fashion and hype that surrounds the Melbourne Cup season every year all but consumes the darker side of the story. This is a narrative that\u2019s missing from mainstream media. The story of how every year 15,000 racehorses that aren\u2019t fast enough are sent to the slaughter. Their meat is generally used for pet food but occasionally for niche human food products. Horses that do fit the bill for racing are subjected to exhausting and cruel training which can result in their severe injury or death. But why is that? Of course, it\u2019s because of tradition and because people love to gamble on horse racing. It\u2019s because of money and sponsorship and TV deals. That\u2019s an immovable obstacle at present and the horses themselves are forgotten in all of that.\nA sad and dreamy PJ Harvey song about horses\u2026\nHorses are keenly sensitive, gentle, inquisitive, powerful and special beasts. In ancient times, (cave painting times) humans hunted them, domesticated them, using them as companions. Although at the same time, people respected them, cared for them and revered them. Their sacrifice and duty was rewarded by ritual and devotion. Now horses are nothing but playthings and commodities in a circus of consumerism.\nWhat can we do?

        "raw_content": "Identify the natural characteristics and beneficial design opportunities, including the variety of textures, colors, and size options, for different type of Texas limestone.\nInvestigate the manufacturing process of Texas limestone and its suitability for both interior and exterior building applications.\nAssess the different methods of securing different types and thicknesses of limestone onto buildings using conventional means and metal frame systems.\nSpecify and describe safe and durable installation, anchoring, and sealing practices for Texas limestone on residential, commercial, and institutional building facades.\nThe tradition of using cut stone for buildings has been common since the time of the Greek and Roman Empires and used even earlier in Egypt, England, Ireland, and elsewhere. Some of those ancient buildings and monuments still exist today and are intact in part because of the stone material used but also because of the ways it was designed, handled, and crafted into the buildings. Today, the same is true. Cut stone of different types is still used in buildings that seek to convey a sense of permanence, a particular style, or a connectivity to the environment by using natural materials. Limestone in particular has been used as a material of choice for building facades for centuries. It is available in many parts of the world, is fairly easy to cut and carve, and has proven itself over time\u2014in fact, the Great Pyramids in Egypt are constructed largely of limestone. A little closer to home, limestone from Texas has some specific characteristics and varieties that make it distinct and even unique compared to other limestone around the world. For building designs that need to rely on great aesthetics, long-term durability, and a range of design options, it is worthwhile learning more about Texas limestone.\nAll images courtesy of Texas Quarries \u2013 An Acme Brick Company\nTexas limestone is used for its appearance and durability in commercial, institutional, and residential buildings, including St. John\u2019s school in Houston, Texas.\nTEXAS LIMESTONE OVERVIEW\nIn geological terms, limestone in general is considered a common mineral. It is made up mostly of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and forms primarily in shallow sea water from marine life, such as clams, scallops, or coral, which use calcium and bicarbonate in the water to form their protective shells. Over time, as the organisms die and the shells are left behind, they fall to the bottom and accumulate in layers, where they combine together to form what we know as the sedimentary rock called limestone. Its abundance on land around the world reveals the places where vast oceans previously existed millions of years ago. The variety of different types of limestone in different locations also speaks to the variety of conditions and marine life that likely existed in different places and at different times.\nSome limestone is of a mixed makeup and is treated as a commodity. This is the type that is commonly used for gravel or stone in some places in the United States. It can also be used for industrial purposes, like the creation of Portland cement, lime fertilizer, or as an additive in products like paints, roofing, and even paper. But sometimes a vein of limestone is discovered that is rather pure and consistent in its makeup. Pure limestone is almost totally white, but the presence of some other substances can give limestone different colors. This type is suitable for specialized purposes where appearance and durability are important, such as building facades or interior walls.\nTexas limestone exhibits all of these overall properties and characteristics of limestone. What makes it a bit more unique is the ready availability of a large quantity of high-quality, pure limestone, and the range of colors and textures available. Some Texas limestone quarries, for example, have been providing high-quality material to building projects across the country and overseas since the 1920s, and there is still plenty available. The range of colors includes not only white, but creamy beiges, some light grays, and some with hues of reds and browns.\nThe variety of colors of Texas limestone allows for different patterns and design capabilities as shown here in Academic Building III at the University of Texas, San Antonio.\nTexas limestone is typically used for interior and exterior wall surfaces. On interiors, the variety of color and texture can allow for an appropriate palette to create many different design schemes that work well with other materials. On the outside, the stone can provide the weathering surface of the building as an integral part of an overall facade or wall assembly design. Used in vertical surfaces this way, the material should hold up quite well over time as a very durable and elegant design solution. On horizontal surfaces, such as outdoor pavers, limestone can work well in low-traffic areas, but the details of installation should be reviewed with the supplier. Checking with the quarry about the suitability of a particular type of limestone to be used in a horizontal application is also advisable since different types of limestone or simply different quarries may produce stone that is better suited to horizontal applications than others.\nOf course, Texas limestone, like all limestone, has a few things to keep in mind when considering its use. First, as a sedimentary rock, it is a very porous material. In order to avoid any possible degradation over time from water penetration, this can be addressed by sealing the surface of the stone or using it in locations where the porosity is not a concern. Similarly, it is a chemical mineral, and as such can react with other chemicals, including acid-based cleaners. That can be avoided with the use of neutral or mild alkaline-based cleaners when needed. In terms of the size and detailing of the stone, those factors will be very dependent on the quarry and fabricator, which may be the same company. The raw block size from the quarry will determine the maximum size of a piece of cut stone or the best smaller sizes to avoid waste from a single slab. There are many fabrication possibilities, but checking with the actual fabricator ahead of time will avoid any unwanted surprises later on.\nAs a natural material, the first step in using Texas limestone is for a quarry operation to extract the stone from the earth. All quarries are not operated equally of course, and it is worthwhile to check out how environmentally responsible a particular quarry might be.\nMost quarries operate at the surface by removing any vegetation and topsoil and digging downward. At some point, a particular quarry stops being economical either because the limestone becomes more difficult to extract the quality changes, or the supply is simply depleted. There are certainly cases where the quarry operation simply stopped and left, leaving an open hole in the earth with little chance of any productive or environmentally beneficial use for many, many years. In some cases, this condition was harmful to the environment or dangerous to people. Fortunately, more and more quarries have accepted the responsibility of reclaiming and restoring the land when the stone extraction process is complete. This is done by filling in some or all of the hole left in the ground with natural materials\u2014sometimes returning stone waste and scrap from the quarry operations itself. It can also be done using natural material from excavations in the area and covering the top with stored topsoil or similar material to allow natural vegetation to return. There may also be the opportunity to create a water feature, such as a pond or small lake, in some cases. Either way, the responsible end result is for the land to be fully restored so it can take on a new life being functional and part of the surrounding environment again.\nQuarry operations of limestone involve cutting large blocks and then tipping or leaning them onto their side to be carried to the mill.\nIn the context of responsible extraction, then, Texas limestone is quarried comparable to most other stone extraction. The surface of the exposed limestone is cut or sliced from the top down into large sections, commonly using portable stone-cutting equipment. One vertical side of those sections is commonly exposed so that hydraulic equipment can then separate the sections, or ledges, by pushing them to turn onto their side. The resulting blocks are commonly on the order of 4 feet wide by 8 feet tall by 4 feet thick. Additional equipment is then used to pick up and move these blocks to a staging area ready for next steps.\nWhile some quarries only provide the rough blocks, others provide further cutting and shaping through mill fabrication capabilities, thus offering a single-source responsibility for all aspects of the stone. In the mill operation, the block is sliced into slabs that can vary between 1\u00bc inches to 6 inches or more in thickness. Generally, the larger the size of the final panel, the thicker it needs to be in order to maintain inherent structural integrity. For example, if a final panel size of 1 foot by 2 feet is needed, then a thickness of 1\u00bc inches would be appropriate, thus producing a thin veneer product. If a panel size up to 3 feet by 5 feet is required, then a corresponding thickness of approximately 2\u00bc inches would be needed. If a full-sized panel up to 4 feet by 8 feet is desired, then the thickness would need to be on the order of 3 to 4 inches. The thicker the panel, the heavier it is, so the weight will increase at a higher rate than just the increase of surface size.\nFabrication of Texas limestone includes addressing the thickness as well as the edges of the final pieces dimensioned to the needed sizes.\nOnce the panels are cut to the appropriate size and thickness, they are ready for further fabrication. One of the first considerations is the type of face treatment or texture that is desired since there are many options. The blocks can be chopped or split to create an intentionally rough surface and exposing a natural inner texture. If the intent is to create rounded or smooth edges that can make the stone blocks look aged or older, then they can be pitched or tumbled to create that affect. Alternatively, they can keep more defined corners and receive a \u201croughback\u201d surface that carries a more controlled rough texture. A more subtle texture can be achieved using a bush hammer or other equipment to create varying degrees of more subtle texture.\nIf rough or rustic isn\u2019t the appearance being sought, then it is also possible to achieve a fairly smooth and precise look in limestone. This is done by honing the surface to the desired smoothness to create a more uniform look and appearance. Automated machinery can be used to cut honed slabs to more precise final sizes. The edges can be processed to obtain a square, chamfered, rounded, or other edge profile, as may be desired. If desired, different profiles, miters, or other detailing can also be performed according to architectural design and specifications. Either way, once the individual pieces receive the proper surface texture and are dimensioned to the proper sizes, they are ready to be crated and shipped to the project site.\nTexas limestone is available in a variety of surface textures such as the fairly rough split block (left), a more subtle rustic finish (center), or honed smooth (right).",

This is the boomerang of the so-called \u201eArab Spring\u201c. Although many of these movements, from Egypt to Tunisia, really started as genuine protests, they were soon taken over by the same old forces that unite to prevent any sort of real change. And if you take Libya or now Syria you will see that the very term \u201cArab Spring\u201d is completely misleading and even wrong. What happened in Libya was nothing but a \u201ccoup d\u2019\u00e9tat.\u201d\nNow documents have been leaked that directly suggest a link between the concession agreements between Libya and the largest oil industry corporations in the world. They show all the unpaid debts for the exploitation of Libyan oil, in terms of the extension of these contracts based, quite reasonably, on Gaddafi\u2019s proposal and the \u201cresponse\u201d of the West to these proposals \u2013 namely bombs and destruction of Libya. The debt that five major world companies owed Libya at this time exceeded a figure of tens of billions of dollars. Gaddafi has offered these companies to agree on their method of payment of the debt, even proposing a re-structuration of debt.\nBut only a few weeks after Gaddafi\u2019s constructive offers, the so-called \u201cArab Spring\u201d began in Benghazi. And then, what happened after this business was finished? Tens of thousands of so-called \u201cfreedom fighters\u201d from Libya were first transferred to fight for uranium in Mali and then most of them were sent to Syria to take off the head of Assad. Weapons that were used in Libya for the \u201cArab Spring\u201d were thus transferred to Syria.\nAnd now this boomerang is coming back to Europe in the form of hundreds of thousands of refugees. So, not only would I not use the term \u201cArab Spring\u201d anymore, I would be very cautious to speak about \u201crevolutions\u201d as well. Yes, you are right, we live after the \u201cEnd of History\u201d and it is again possible to imagine different alternatives to capitalism.\nBut capitalism, as capitalist interventions in Libya or Syria show very clearly, is stronger than ever, it can \u2013 as in the case of Egypt or Tunisia \u2013 pretty quickly use genuine protest energies and turn them against themselves. Or it can even \u2013 as in the case of Mossaddegh in Iran on 1953 or Salvador Allende in 1973 \u2013 orchestrate \u201crevolutions\u201d just in order to bring capitalism back into town.\npart of an interview in October 2015\nhttp://english.hebbel-am-ufer.de/media-center/texts/melancholy-and-triumph-sercko-horvat/",

        "raw_content": "This is a guest post from Vanessa Davis.\nMotivation is the most important aspect when it comes to exercising and when that lacks, everything else falls apart sooner or later. Sure, you can train out of stubbornness and that\u2019s sort of motivation as well, but the truth is that your body can recognize very well when you\u2019ve got a real desire to work and improve yourself and when you\u2019re just doing something to get it over with. Results will still be there when you\u2019re working out without motivation, but you won\u2019t feel the fulfillment and you will probably need longer to achieve any noticeable results. That is why this article is dedicated to 5 methods that will always keep you motivated and keep you on track.\nThere are so many different training regimes out there, so many fad diets, countless promises that bring very few results and that alone is enough for you to give up even before you start. One of the things people don\u2019t tell you about exercise is that you have absolute freedom with how you\u2019re going to incorporate into your daily routine. You don\u2019t necessarily have to go to the gym if it makes you uncomfortable and you don\u2019t have to go running if you only want to die after you\u2019re done. There are so many great activities you could be doing, that still promote healthy lifestyle and give you the body that you want. We\u2019re not saying you don\u2019t have to do some cardio or high intensity workouts from time to time, but you don\u2019t have to dread every time you put on your exercise clothes. Variety is the key here, so be bold and try out new things \u2013 go swimming, jump the rope, go hiking or try free climbing, cycle to work or rollerblade there, your imagination is the only limit. Of course you will be much more motivated to train when you have fun while doing it.\nKnow Where You Started\nThere is always that one defining moment we realize things can\u2019t continue the way they use to be when it comes to our fitness. For some it\u2019s the realization that they can\u2019t button their favorite pair of jeans, for others it\u2019s the fact that they had to stop and catch their breath after a couple of flights of stairs. Whatever it is that made you start your training, keep those strong emotions with you whenever you don\u2019t feel like putting in some effort to feel and look better. Chances are that you don\u2019t ever want to be in that situation again, and that in itself is enough to motivate you to go through your workout. Please, don\u2019t allow negative emotions to motivate you, but rather hold on to that first surge of energy you felt when you first firmly decided to improve your body and work from there.\nIt\u2019s amazing how opinions of other people can affect the way we perceive our reality, especially when it comes to our loved ones. That is why it\u2019s a good idea to have a training partner who will go through training with you. Everything is much easier when done in good company, and let\u2019s face it, we all need reality check from time to time and that voice of reason that tells us not to give up on our healthy diet, encourage us to run just a mile more and cut through excuses we hide behind. If you can afford your own personal trainer, then by all means, go for it, but getting a gym buddy works just as well, if not better. There will be plenty of motivation going around, especially because you will have to be the motivator as well, so you\u2019re going to have to put your money where your mouth is.\nDitch the Negative Chatter\nWe are the biggest obstacles for ourselves, we don\u2019t need anybody else to limit us, when we\u2019ve got so much negative self-talk constantly going on. Fear and lack of confidence are enough to cramp us into a little box called comfort zone, from which so many of us never break free and same rules apply when it comes to training. If you don\u2019t think you can do it, well, you can\u2019t. Negative self-image is one of the most frequent issues modern man has to deal with and it\u2019s our limitation in many occasions, self-improvement included. Every time you think you can\u2019t do something or attain a goal, remember that our minds always want to give much before our bodies do, so don\u2019t give in, smile even though you don\u2019t feel like it and push on.\nYou know how you get that uneasy feeling in your stomach when you think about your workout? The truth is that your mind is playing with you and it all goes away the moment you get to the gym or play that workout video, because that is the moment your mind accepts that it\u2019s lost the battle. Being motivated to work out comes naturally the moment you actually start doing it, but everything that comes beforehand is a risk factor. Your ego doesn\u2019t want to be uncomfortable, so it will give you all sorts of excuses and ways out not to go through it, but it all simply melts away when you start warming up. So instead of dreading the fact that you\u2019ve got five miles to run, think about how good stretching before that run will feel, and after you\u2019ve stretched, well, you might as well have a run while you\u2019re there.\nPrevious5 Cheap (or Free) Tools That Boost My Productivity\nNext39 Things I\u2019ve Learned Before Age 39",

        "raw_content": "NEWS: England Name Squad For UAE Training Camp & Ireland Matches\nEngland have named a huge squad of 24 players for their up-coming training camp in the UAE, which will include 3 one-day matches (NB \u2013 not \u201cofficial\u201d ODIs) against Ireland on 24th, 26th and 28th of April, as well as a number of inter-squad games.\nThe squad includes all the contracted players except Sarah Taylor; plus 7 faces from the Senior Academy squad, including Berkshire\u2019s Linsey Smith and Kent\u2019s Alice Davidson-Richards. Although neither Smith nor Davidson-Richards have quite \u201ccome from nowhere\u201d, neither was really in the England picture a year ago, but as with Alex Hartley, it shows that Mark Robinson\u2019s England are prepared to cast their net a little wider than might have been the case in the past.\nAs for Taylor, England are clearly still hoping she might make the World Cup \u2013 she is back in training, but not at full fitness, and England have stressed that there are no timescales in place \u2013 she will be back when she is ready, be that in time for the World Cup, or not.\nThe ECB have confirmed that the contracted players will not be available for the first two rounds of the County Championship on April 30th/ May 1st; whilst the Academy players will be released on a case-by-case basis.\nHollie Armitage\nJOB OPPORTUNITY: Women\u2019s Cricket Maker (Oxfordshire Cricket)\n\u2013 Are you passionate about getting more women playing sport?\n\u2013 Do you have an interest in Cricket?\n\u2013 Do you have the skills to engage women to go give Cricket a go?\n\u2013 Can you make a difference?\n\u2013 If yes, this may be for you!\nOxfordshire Cricket are looking for an enthusiastic Women\u2019s Cricket Maker for the upcoming summer.\nThe job will run for 5 months, with the aim to give as many women as possible the opportunity to get a bat and ball experience this summer in a fun and social environment.\nMore details \u2013 including how to apply \u2013 are available on the Oxfordshire Cricket website, here: http://www.oxfordshire.cricket/news/womens-cricket-maker-wanted-18215/\nNEWS: England XI To Play Ireland In World Cup Warm-Up\nAn England XI will meet Ireland in three 50-over games in the UAE in April, two months prior to the launch of England\u2019s World Cup campaign.\nThe matches will take place on 24, 26 and 28 April and, while they will not count as \u201cofficial\u201d ODIs, they will serve as a useful warm-up for England\u2019s players in the build-up to the world tournament, which launches on June 24.\nIreland, meanwhile, are clearly treating the series as an opportunity to blood new talent, with 7 uncapped players included in their squad: Aoife Beggs, Rachel Delany, Louise Little, Lara Maritz, Sophie MacMahon, Leah Paul and Rebecca Stokell.\nIreland squad: Laura Delany (capt), Aoife Beggs, Laura Boylan, Rachel Delaney, Jennifer Gray, Shauna Kavanagh, Amy Kenealy, Gaby Lewis, Louise Little, Lara Maritz, Sophie MacMahon, Lucy O\u2019Reilly, Leah Paul, Rebecca Stokell, Mary Waldron.\nEngland squad: TBC.\nRising Stars: Up And Coming Talent From The England Women\u2019s Academy, Part 2\nFfion Wynne continues her profiles of some of the top future England prospects.\n(Catch up with Part 1 here!)\n3. Alex Travers\nThe great confidence of 16-year-old Alex Travers is remarkable for such a young age. Having played her county cricket at Surrey since the Under 11 age group, the winter of 2016/2017 has been her first in any England set-up, and her enjoyment in the squad is evident in her enthusiasm. \u201cIt was quite a big adjustment at first,\u201d Alex explains, \u201cbut I learn so much from being around this environment, and I know exactly what I need to do to improve further from being here.\u201d\nShe speaks highly of the set-up and the supportive nature of the coaching staff, demonstrating its importance in supporting the development of future England hopefuls. Similarly to Charlie Dean, Travers claims that the being a younger member of the squad doesn\u2019t hinder the experience in the slightest, and that challenging herself against the best of her age will undoubtedly improve her skills.\nTravers has also been included in the Regional Development Centre of the Surrey Stars, and is highly motivated to participate in the KSL during the next few years of her career. \u201cIt would be amazing to play in the Super League and I\u2019d love to play for England eventually. Just from being involved in these camps over the past few months, I feel like I can improve so much,\u201d Alex says.\nDespite the high hopes for her future, Travers remains focused and is determined to keep enjoying her cricket as much as she currently does. Having made her way into Surrey\u2019s first XI last summer, Travers\u2019 clear enthusiasm for the game and willingness to learn will undoubtedly make her a regular performer this season, aiding her progression towards her KSL and England dreams.\n4. Izzy Cloke\nKent\u2019s young talent Izzy Cloke concludes the trio of 16-year-olds, but this winter already marks her third in any England set-up. This experience is evident in Cloke\u2019s enthusiasm and confidence, as she describes her aim to fully establish herself in Kent\u2019s first XI this summer, after playing her first two games last season. \u201cIt\u2019s a really strong team, which made it quite daunting to begin with,\u201d Cloke says, \u201cbut Lydia Greenway was captain and she was really helpful in making me feel included. I bowled three overs on my debut at Arundel, which went really well and gave me a lot of confidence.\u201d\nLast winter, Cloke emerged onto the Development Programme from the Under 15s, which she describes as initially quite difficult as many of the girls were much older, and had been in the programme together for a while. However, Cloke also states that the supportive nature of the coaches cannot be faulted in providing a friendly and welcoming environment, where the correct amount of pressure is applied without being too overwhelming for the younger members of the squad. Alongside her England experience, Cloke trains alongside Alex Travers in the Surrey Stars Development Centre.\nAs she is currently studying for her AS Levels, Izzy is firmly focusing on her cricketing and academic future. \u201cLoughborough is definitely one of my university choices,\u201d she explains, \u201cbecause I really want to stay on an England programme, and it would be useful to combine that with a really good course, but I am looking at quite a few others at the moment.\u201d\nFurther along the line, Cloke does aspire to be involved in the KSL, as her experience as a spectator watching the Stars demonstrated its status as a great competition, and would really allow her cricket to develop further. With high hopes to progress into the Senior Academy over the next few years, Cloke\u2019s positivity and the maturity of her attitude suggests that her cricket will continue to go from strength to strength.\nFfion Wynne profiles some future England prospects.\nTowards the end of a successful summer, notably due to the emergence of the KSL, the England Women\u2019s Pathway introduced a few changes to their system. For what used to be called the England Women\u2019s Development Programme, the Academy aims to prepare young and talented individuals between the ages of 14 \u2013 19 for the Senior Academy, the KSL and hopefully for international honours.\nWith the professionalisation of the women\u2019s game firmly in place, alongside securing Sky Sports coverage for the next edition for the KSL, the future is looking extremely bright for the England women\u2019s side. With this in mind, we decided to get an insight into the life of an Academy cricketer and catch up with some up-and-coming stars from the Academy to discuss their experiences in the setup and their hopes for their futures in the game.\n1. Anna Nicholls\nAged 19, Anna Nicholls is one of the Academy\u2019s older and more experienced members, with plenty of Division One cricket under her belt for Middlesex already. However, with a recent move to Leeds to study Medicine, Nicholls has transferred to Yorkshire for the upcoming season and is hoping for first team selection in order to continue her progress at such a high standard.\nA promising batsman and former pace bowler, Nicholls has been around the England set-up for nearly four years, when the Under 15 programme was still in place. \u201cIn the Under 15s, we only trained 3 weekends over the winter,\u201d she explains, \u201cbut I\u2019ve been in this development programme, which used to be the Under 19s, for a while now and we have camps about once a month plus a summer competition.\u201d For Anna, the best part about the programme is being able to challenge herself against better players, and using scenario practice to improve her knowledge and tactics of the game.\nIn the 2016 season, her talent was evident from her selection for the Yorkshire Diamonds in the KSL, notably featuring in their final game against Western Storm. Nicholls speaks emphatically about the competition, and describes the incredible experience of being surrounded by such high profile elite cricketers, notably her teammate Alex Blackwell, and the importance of learning from them. The professional environment, and the amazement of Blackwell\u2019s ability to create shots \u201cout of nowhere\u201d, succeeded in inspiring Nicholls immensely.\nWith an intense few years at medical school awaiting her, alongside cricketing ambitions, the future looks extremely bright for Yorkshire\u2019s latest arrival. \u201cThere is definitely a challenge ahead,\u201d Nicholls states, \u201cbut at the moment I\u2019m just determined to push my cricket and medicine as far as they can both possibly go.\u201d\n2. Charlie Dean\nHampshire\u2019s Charlie Dean has been involved at the county since she was 11 years old, and now at 16, has started her first year in the Academy programme, having progressed from the Under 15 set-up the previous winter. Alongside the monthly England camps, the talented all-rounder trains several times a week with the Hampshire Academy. Despite being a younger member of the squad, she seems unfazed by the challenge. \u201cThe environment is really positive and friendly,\u201d Charlie says, \u201cand I think it\u2019s actually making me a much better player being one of the younger ones. It\u2019s good to challenge myself against the older and more experienced girls.\u201d\nDean\u2019s heavy cricketing schedule is boosted by her inclusion in the Young Vipers squad, the development centre for the KSL team. The squad trains every Saturday over the winter, preparing players for long term development into the Super League. With the vast amount of winter training for Hampshire, Vipers and England, it seems that Charlie has a very exciting and promising summer ahead of her. Such promise at such a young age suggests that her progress will develop immensely over the next few years, and with aims for reselection into the Academy before hopefully progressing into the Senior Academy, it seems Dean will be a vital asset to Charlotte Edwards\u2019 Hampshire squad this summer!\nNEWS: County Comings & Goings \u2013 Knight Steps Down At Berks; Hartley Goes Home To Lancs\nAll rounder Lissy Macleod has been appointed the new Berkshire captain. With Heather Knight stepping down from the role due to her international commitments with England in a home World Cup summer, Macleod was the obvious candidate to take over, having made over 100 appearances for the Beavers since her debut in 2008, with 14 fifties, 1 century, and 77 wickets to her name. Knight will continue to play for Berkshire where her schedule allows.\nEngland spinner Alex Hartley has re-signed for Lancashire after 4 seasons at Middlesex. Hartley first emerged through the Lancashire youth system, but joined Middlesex to reboot a career which had appeared to be stalled at the time \u2013 a smart move, which ended with her being awarded a full England contract off the back of her international debut last summer.\nAlso heading to Lancashire is England Academy batsman Eve Jones, as the side look to avoid the fate they suffered last time they were promoted to Div 1, when they were sent immediately back down to Div 2 after 8 straight defeats.\nNotts \u2013 the other newly promoted county in Div 1 \u2013 have also been shopping, acquiring Jodie Dibble from Devon, Lucy Higham from Leicestershire and Megan Burton from Wales. Dibble dropped out of the national squad last year, and had a pretty indifferent Super League for the Western Storm; but she is only 22 and it isn\u2019t beyond the bounds of possibility that Notts represents a way back for her to some day add to her one England cap.\nDespite the disappointment of not winning a Super League franchise last year, Middlesex have taken the bold step of appointing Danni Warren as their new Head of Women\u2019s Cricket, to oversee both the county and MCC sides. Warren made over 100 appearances for the county between 2002-2015, taking more than 150 wickets.\nHaving lost Hartley, Middlesex will be looking very much to youth this season, and have promoted both Gayatri Gole and Katie Wolfe from their U19 squad, as they try to improve on last season\u2019s narrow scrape with relegation in Div 1.\nHampshire narrowly missed out on promotion from Div 2 last season, but it will be a different business down at the Ageas Bowl this year. With Charlotte Edwards and now New Zealand captain Suzie Bates also signed up to play county cricket in 2017, Hampshire are clearly making a big long-term play for a future in the women\u2019s game, keeping their eggs in both the KSL and county baskets, ahead of the likelihood of further fluidity* in the structure of women\u2019s domestic cricket in 2019/20.\n* We don\u2019t have any inside info on this; but with the changes coming to The Other Game, we suspect the logical move would be to create parallel women\u2019s teams, and if the Super League is still going in 2021, we\u2019ll eat our own pizzas!!\nAustralia v New Zealand: Bowling Rankings \u2013 Teenage Kicks for Wellington & Kerr\nOur bowling rankings, covering the T20 and ODI Rosebowl series between Australia and New Zealand, see a number of unexpected new faces in the leading positions: of the top 4, only New Zealand\u2019s Holly Huddleston has played more than 10 internationals, and the \u201cHudd Missile\u201d herself has played less than 30 \u2013 a number she now looks nailed-on to add to at the World Cup in England in the summer.\nAfter an underwhelming WBBL with wooden-spooners the Adelaide Strikers, 19-year-old Amanda Wellington has come roaring back to the top of her game with 15 wickets, including a best of 4-16 to restrict New Zealand to just 113 in the 3rd T20 \u2013 a match-winning platform which the Southern Stars batsmen then proceeded to throw away in spectacular fashion, as they were bowled out for just 66.\nNew Zealand\u2019s own new teenage sensation \u2013 sixteen-year-old Amelia Kerr \u2013 also took her best figures in a losing cause \u2013 4-54 in the 2nd ODI. They weren\u2019t just any wickets either, but included a set Meg Lanning and Beth Mooney (on 44 and 57, respectively) and Elyse Villani for a golden duck. Kerr also finished the series with the best economy rate of any of the leading bowlers \u2013 just 4.5.\nHaving made her Southern Stars debut in this series, Molly Strano played just the 3 T20s and already has an international fifer to her name \u2013 5-10 in the 2nd T20. But guess what? That was also in a lost match, as Australia fell short chasing a Duckworth-Lewis adjusted target of 70 off 13 overs, limping to 61-9.\n1. Amanda Wellington (AUS) 6 15 5.1\n2.

You\u2019d think they\u2019d have to be looking to win all 3 of those games to put themselves in a strong position for the tougher tests to come, when a slip-up somewhere along the line is probably inevitable. England certainly won\u2019t want to be going into the last couple of games, versus New Zealand and the West Indies, with semi-final qualification in doubt, though that will possibly depend very-much on how evenly all those other results fall.\nWith everyone playing everyone else in the group stages, it is going to be a huge tournament \u2013 31 matches in just 30 days \u2013 so whoever eventually lifts that trophy at Lords will truly have earned the title of \u201cWorld Champions\u201d.\nEngland\u2019s Schedule Match Venue\nSaturday 24 June v India Derby\nTuesday 27 June v Pakistan Leicester\nSunday 02 July v Sri Lanka Taunton\nWednesday 05 July v South Africa Bristol\nSunday 09 July v Australia Bristol\nWednesday 12 July v New Zealand Derby\nSaturday 15 July v West Indies Bristol\nTuesday 18 July Semi Final 1 Bristol\nThursday 20 July Semi Final 2 Derby\nSunday 23 July Final Lord\u2019s\nAustralia v New Zealand: Batting Rankings \u2013 Meg Lanning In Not Top Shock!\nShe might be the best player in the world right now\u2026 she might have more ODI centuries than any other woman ever, after she passed Charlotte Edwards record 9 during this series\u2026 but for once Meg Lanning isn\u2019t at the top of our batting rankings, covering the T20 and ODI Rosebowl series between Australia and New Zealand.\nInstead, it is Amy Satterthwaite who rules the roost with the blade \u2013 she has been in spectacular international nick over the past few months, and after dominating New Zealand\u2019s series with South Africa last October, she continued her rich vein of form here, including a match-winning century in the 1st ODI.\nFor the Australians, Beth Mooney had a break-out series, almost certainly confirming her ticket to England in the summer; but Elyse Villani was actually arguably even more important, with a big Strike Rate of 118, coming in a bit further down the order at 4 or 5, having usually opened in her international career to date; and it clearly worked, so you\u2019d think this is probably where we are likely to see her batting during the World Cup.\n1.

Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me.\u201d When Naomi realized that Ruth was determined to go with her, she stopped urging her. \u2013 Ruth 1:16-18 (NIV)\nFamily is a funny thing. While blood is supposedly thicker than water, Ruth proves otherwise. It was her commitment to Naomi despite blood that gained her a reputation among the Jewish people. It was her entrance into a family of her choosing that set her apart as honorable and noble. It was her decision to stay with the family she adored that placed her in the lineage of David and Jesus.\nWe all have two families; the one we are born into (or adopted into) and the one we chose to be part of. The family of man and the family of God. As our children grow in their life with God, they will need to choose to be a part of God\u2019s family. It is not something they can inherit or marry into; it is something they must choose and keep choosing. However, it is the responsibility of the family by blood to prepare them for the spiritual family.\nThis is why it is so important to be part of a community of believers. It is hard to know how to live with family if you aren\u2019t spending time with them. Children need to be involved in prayer, worship, service and fellowship. They will need to learn how to get along with their brothers and sisters in Christ. Our children are also God\u2019s children, with family responsibilities. A life with God\u2019s people should begin at home, but it culminates everywhere else. Hopefully, in this way, we can raise our children to not just to play well with other, but pray well with others.\nLord, help me to raise not just my child, but your child, that they would call you Father and have fellowship with their brothers and sisters. Help me to love my family into Your larger family. May all we do as a family fit us for Yours. Amen.\nChildrenFamilyFatherhoodGodLoveParenthood",

        "raw_content": "Most people not offended by &quot;Chinese Driver&quot; decals, poll shows\nYesterday, Vancity Buzz began a poll asking readers whether they found the recent \u201cChinese Driver\u201d decals, mimicking the ICBC \u201cL\u201d or \u201cN\u201d stickers, offensive. With over 15,000 survey responses, the results are in.\n\u201cChinese Driver\u201d stickers have been found displayed on the backs of vehicles around Metro Vancouver for several years now, especially in Richmond and Vancouver\u2019s Westside. According to yesterday\u2019s CTV report, these signs are mostly purchased by Chinese people and placed on their car as an ironic, self-deprecating joke.\nWhile a lot of people praise the decals and the people who buy them for their sense of humour, many people also find them to be racist and promoting stereotypes.\nIntrigued by this divide, we started a non-scientific online poll to determine the common attitudes toward the signs.\nOur poll options, randomly ordered, offered five possible responses to the question \u201cIs a \u2018Chinese Driver\u2019 decal offensive?\u201d\nThe results show that a substantial 85 per cent of people decided the decals are not offensive, with 36.26 per cent believing \u201cIt\u2019s a joke, people are too sensitive\u201d to be the best answer and another 35.04 per cent believing the decals are not offensive \u201cif a Chinese person chooses to buy it\u201d. An additional 13.83 per cent don\u2019t think they are offensive, but believed some people might.\nOnly a small percentage, 12.97 per cent, believed the \u201cChinese Driver\u201d decals are \u201cmost definitely\u201d offensive. 1.9 per cent remained undecided.\nPoll data collected at 11:30 a.m., March 18, 2015\nWhen asked to comment further, people\u2019s beliefs were more thoroughly explained.\nOf those who believed the signage was offensive, comments included:\n\u201cI think it\u2019s offensive because the purpose of this sticker is vague (at best), unstated (at its worst). It seems to presume that all Chinese drivers are bad drivers. It\u2019s unstated intent is to presume that all \u201cwhite\u201d drivers are good drivers. Neither one of those assumptions is correct.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m a Chinese-Canadian, born and raised right here in Canada. I enjoy great jokes, and even horrible ones. But I find it offensive. And I think anyone (especially those who are of Chinese heritage) who don\u2019t find it offensive miss the damaging stereotypes that it reinforces. It\u2019s a big step backwards.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s racist. No if, ands, or buts.\u201d\n\u201cPerhaps the inappropriate part of the joke is the Chinese driver taking pride/making light the stereotype of their cultures\u2019 perverse driving ability. Does that mean it is then acceptable to laugh and mock people based on stereotypes against them? It\u2019s all about context.\u201d\nAnd on the other side of the spectrum, people firmly disagreed.\n\u201cThis is not racism. People are simply too PC. If one can joke about their own race, how could it be racist?\u201d\n\u201cNot offended by this at all, and for those who are: GOOD! Being offended means you are being exposed to new ideas. Next time you are offended, instead of shouting it from the rooftops, find a way how it might make you grow\u201d\n\u201cIf a Chinese person (or any person) wants to label themselves, they have every right to do so. How on earth could white people be offended by this?!\u201d\nSome came at the issue from a logistical perspective.\n\u201cWe just don\u2019t need this kinda junk sticker cluttering up the official signage that actually means something. The only addition I\u2019d entertain would be a yellow D for Drunk Driver \u2013 to be displayed for 2 years after a DUI conviction. Ban all other stickers that could be confused with the official signage.\u201d\nThe topic of racism in Metro Vancouver is an issue we have looked at before. Our population is one of the most diverse in the country with 43 per cent of residents having an Asian heritage.\nRegardless if you think these \u201cChinese Driver\u201d decals are racist or not, these are the type of conversations that need to happen to make a difference in a city where subtle racism does still exist.",

        "raw_content": "Christian Leadership and the Way of the Cross\nI watched Son of God this past weekend and was struck by the level of resistance Jesus encountered during his public ministry. There was just something about seeing it on screen that made the conflict feel more real to me.\nJesus was misunderstood. People wanted him to be someone he wasn\u2019t. They felt threatened by him and falsely accused him. They tried to test, trap and attack him. They challenged his authority, legitimacy, and mission. And in the end, they were more than happy to have him killed.\nWhat they don\u2019t teach you in seminary is that these experiences are actually par for the course in Christian leadership. Even that last one is normative in many places around the world. The way of authentic Christian leadership is the way of the cross; not as a victim but as a volunteer, done out of love for God and people.\nTo lead in Christ\u2019s kingdom is to lay down your life for others and open yourself to criticism, accusation, and rejection. And if you want to stay in the game, you\u2019ve gotta resist the temptation to become bitter when the sheep shit on you and the world laughs at you.\nDon\u2019t get me wrong; it\u2019s not all bad. The movie, like the gospels, highlights many of the joyous moments of ministry. Being a leader in the kingdom of God (official title or not) can be one of the most exciting, rewarding, and meaningful endeavors imaginable.\nJust remember that if Jesus faced persecution and resistance as a leader, you will too.

        "raw_content": "How Do You Know If An Album Is Successful?\nMay 8, 2014 destroyerofharmonydefinition of success, Digital Summer, Five Finger Death Punch, machine head, music, Music Streaming, recording an album, Sebastian Bach, selling records, streaming, The Crimson Idol, WASP Leave a comment\nYou are an artist performing solo or within a band.\nYou decide to record an album.\nYou spend time and effort writing, recording, producing, mixing and mastering your latest opus.\nYou do some promo and release it.\nThen what do you do.\nIt doesn\u2019t sell what you expected. Once upon a time, the definition of a successful act was based on how many records they sold.\nSebastian Bach still can\u2019t get his head around why he has 800,000 Facebook Followers and only 6000 people in the U.S purchased his new album \u201cGive Em Hell\u201d in the opening week. For the record, it is a great album. I have heard the album, but I didn\u2019t purchase it. I went to Spotify and streamed it.\nSo if it doesn\u2019t sell as expected, it doesn\u2019t that mean the album didn\u2019t do well. What it means is that fans of music have consumed it in many different ways. I actually liked it enough to go onto Amazon and add it to my shopping cart. I haven\u2019t purchased it yet. I will wait until the price drops below $10 before I do. And then it will go on the shelve in its wrapper.\nIn this day and age sales can never be used a metric for success. However, if there are songs there that are undeniable and an audience starts to resonate with those songs, then expect to sell.\nFive Finger Death Punch came out in the piracy era. In the same era that has greedy corporations telling politicians that piracy is decimating the music industry.\nWell, this piracy era hasn\u2019t stopped Five Finger Death Punch from moving over 500,000 units in the U.S alone for each album. Yep that\u2019s right, Five Finger Death Punch have been selling records since their debut album came out in 2007. Even the recent \u201cWrong Side of Heaven\u201d Volumes 1 and 2 are moving close to the 500,000 mark for each of them. Combined these two albums have moved over 700,000 units.\nSo I am really over bands or artists who lament that no one buys their music. People do buy music. People do stream music. People do download music without paying for it.\nAnd all of those people who access an artists music both legally and illegal will also invest in concert tickets and merchandise. They will even invest in REAL limited/deluxe edition perks. Not the kind of perks that just come with a DVD or a T Shirt.\nArtists should take a leaf out of RatPak Records. They have various packages available with each release and at a price that isn\u2019t extortion.\nIn my opinion, an album can be defined as a success if people are coming to the shows and singing the songs of the album.\nWASP released \u201cThe Crimson Idol\u201d in the early nineties. Commercially it didn\u2019t do anything however if you talk to any WASP fan and I bet you they can sing the songs from that album. In 2014, it is seen as Blackie Lawless\u2019s finest achievement.\nMachine Head released \u201cThe Blackening\u201d in 2007. It didn\u2019t sell in the millions, however it allowed Machine Head to go on a three-year victory lap on the back of it, touring the world over and over and over again. It was hailed by Metal Hammer as the album of the decade. It is also seen as Machine Head\u2019s definitive masterpiece.\nOne of my favourite independent bands \u201cDigital Summer\u201d have been managing their own career and their own releases with great success. Recently they just had a run of dates with Volbeat and Trivium. Prior to that, they have done tours with Shinedown, Three Days Grace, Three Doors Down and many other acts. They have done shows on their own. And they manage themselves. They finance their own recordings. They ask their fans to help out via fan funding campaigns. So big deal if their albums haven\u2019t sold in the millions. They are over 10 years deep and still rocking.\nSo how do you know if an album is successful in 2014?\nIf people are listening to it, coming out to the shows and singing the songs.\nClassic Songs to Be Discovered, Music, My Stories, Stupidity\nChevelle, Sebastian Bach, James Durbin, Black Label Society and The Used. And Artists Wonder Why Fans Cherry Pick.\nApril 27, 2014 destroyerofharmonyBlack Label Society, Chevelle, James Durbin, Sebastian Bach, The Used Leave a comment\nListened to some new music today that I have been wanting to check out for a few weeks now. The beauty of Spotify.\nChevelle blew my mind when they came out with their Tool infused pop stylings.\nIt was perfect back in 2002 and 2004. Now it is getting old. In saying that, \u201cOne Ocean\u201d, \u201cChoking Game\u201d, \u201cUnder The Knife\u201d and \u201cTwinge\u201d are stand out songs, however only the hardcore fans would go that deep into the album. The rest would check out the single, and maybe the first five tracks and move on.\nSebastian Bach \u2013 Give Em Hell\nSkid Row was powerful with Bach on vocals. There was an X Factor there. Sabo and Bolan couldn\u2019t get signed with all of the previous vocalists and then Sebastian comes on the scene and suddenly the band is hot and dangerous.\nOne hell of a talented vocalist and with this solo album, Bach is in top form. It is a solid album from start to finish with each song written by a who\u2019s who list of musicians and producers.\nAnd Devin Bronson on guitar, playing hard rock/metal music is triple A. If there is a fault, 12 songs are too much. 9 songs really stand out.\nJames Durbin \u2013 Celebrate\nThe memories of Durbin doing \u201cYou Got Another Thing Coming\u201d from Judas Priest on American Idol still live on. It was that cover song that got me interested to check out his original music when the time came. So the debut comes out and the opening track \u201cHigher Than Heaven\u201d blows me away at its heaviness and popiness.\nAnd now here we are in 2014. It is a good album. It is worth a listen. My wife will love it. In the end if you want to hear James Durbin pretend to be like Kate Perry or One Direction that \u201cforever, ever, ever line\u201d in \u201cLive Right Now\u201d is just too much or the \u201cJump! Jump! Jump!\u201d in the song \u201cParachute\u201d.\nNoteworthy tracks are \u201cLouder Than A Loaded Gun\u201d, \u201cReal Love\u201d and \u201cChildren Of The Sun\u201d.\nIt\u2019s time to go back to those thirty rock songs that didn\u2019t make it on the album and get them released, because a rock career is forever, whereas a pop career is fleeting.\nBlack Label Society \u2013 Catacombs of the Black Vatican\nLove Zakk Wylde. I still remember having a poster on my wall around the \u201cNo Rest For The Wicked\u201d period. Zakk was just a skinny little blonde kid. Now he is like a Viking marauder, ready to take over this town.\nI like Black Label Society for the same reason I like AC/DC. You know what you are gonna get and it is a good thing. It\u2019s groovy hard rock and metal, with Zakk\u2019s Ozzy meets Layne Staley style vocal phrasing and great guitar playing.\nZakk has nurtured and fostered his audience with this sound. He has put a bikie culture and mentality around his audience and each time he plays a town, he calls on the local BLS Chapter to come out in force. And he gives them what they want. Beer soaked groove rock and metal.\n\u201cMy Dying Day\u201d is a full strength brewski. \u201cAngel Of Mercy\u201d for a ballad is also a full strength brewski. \u201cDamn The Flood\u201d has a Goddam wah-drenched solo section. So another brewski for that. \u201cEmpty Promises\u201d is a double full strength brewski.\nMy first exposure to The Used was in the first Transformers movie and that car chase scene between Bumblebee and the Decepticon Police Car. I loved that riff, so I tracked down the soundtrack and found out that the song was called \u201cPretty Handsome Awkward\u201d from a band called The Used. I really enjoyed the \u201cArtwork\u201d album.\nAnd I have no idea what The Used is trying to achieve with this album. I\u2019m hearing it and I am thinking about the latest Daughtry album that alienated the hard core fans in its quest for the One Direction and Train pop dollars.\nIn music, your only as good as the last song you released or the last album you put out or the last show you played.\nStart getting a few D grades in both and expect your career to disappear.\nAt least their club and theater shows are selling out.\nA lot of time was invested to hear the sixty plus songs across the five albums and I only clicked the save button on my Spotify account 20 times. And then artists wonder why the fans cherry pick. And nine of them came from Sebastian Bach\u2019s effort.\nAlternate Reality, Influenced, Music, My Stories, Stupidity\nIs Nikki Sixx A Revisionist?\nSeptember 16, 2013 destroyerofharmonyarts, celebrities, Dee Snider, entertainment, fabrications, fraud, John Corabi, lies, Motley Crue, nikki sixx, Phil Lewis, pop culture, revisionist, rewriting history, Sebastian Bach, the heroin diaries, Tom Werman, truth, whig history Leave a comment\nWhen I was studying a subject called Science and Technology at Uni, one of the topics dealt with a term called \u201cWhig history.\u201d For the uninitiated, this term in pop culture means, looking back at the past, with the mindset and views that you have now, and rewriting the history to suit your view points at this point in time. Of course the meaning of Whig history is more detailed, however unpacking the full history behind it, in this blog, is for another day.\nAnyway here is an example of a Whig history (especially made up by me for this blog post);\n\u201cMotley Crue changed the way bands would record music videos with the release of Smokin In the Boys Room in 1985. Their fearless leader, Nikki Sixx turned the clich\u00e9d video clip into a mini movie format. The rest of the music world needed to follow suit or they would be left behind. Video clips by Twisted Sister, Van Halen, Michael Jackson would all follow the new mini movie format made popular by Nikki Sixx.\u201d\nThe above is factually incorrect. In addition, the time line of events are incorrect. Michael Jackson\u2019s \u201cThriller\u201d came first, in December 1983. Then in April 1984, Twisted Sister unleashed \u201cWe\u2019re Not Gonna Take It\u201d and not soon after \u201cI Wanna Rock.\u201d Also in the same year came \u201cHot For Teacher\u201d from Van Halen. \u201cSmokin In The Boys Room\u201d didn\u2019t come until 1985.\nThe above example is to illustrate a revisionist view on history, that takes the view point of a \u201csuper hero\u201d and how that super hero changed the course of the music industry.\nFirst, let me say that I am a fan of Motley Crue. Growing up in the Eighties, Motley Crue and the attitude they exhibited was something that I could relate too. I have read \u201cThe Heroin Diaries\u201d, \u201cThis Is Gonna Hurt\u201d and \u201cThe Dirt\u201d. I have also read \u201cTommyland\u201d and \u201cTattoos & Tequila: To Hell and Back with One of Rock\u2019s Most Notorious Frontmen.\u201d\nSince Motley Crue was the top band in the Eighties for me, I devoured as much information as I could on the band. This included taping interviews from all the various music shows, buying the expensive U.S magazines and trading with other hard rock fans in my local area. For example, I would give them a Poison poster and they would give me stuff on Motley Crue that I didn\u2019t have.\nSo after reading the books above, especially the solo books, I was confused with some of the information that was put out there. Vince Neil\u2019s is the worst one and his book was a very painful one to read. For the casual fan they wouldn\u2019t notice these changes to the mythology of Motley Crue, however for the hard core, some things just didn\u2019t sit right.\nDoing the rounds at the moment are comments by Sebastian Bach. To recap, Bach claims that he was asked to join Motley Crue, before they fired Vince Neil. Nikki Sixx said that was not true. Bach took offence to that, you know that whole \u201cdon\u2019t call me a liar\u201d argument. In his rebuttal, Bach makes a reference to Nikki Sixx\u2019s \u201cThe Heroin Diaries\u201d book as being inaccurate and he also mentions that a jam session took placed between Nikki, Tommy, Mick and Sebastian. Nikki Sixx has yet to respond to this. This isn\u2019t the first time that Nikki Sixx\u2019s version of events has been questioned.\nJohn Corabi, the vocalist that ended up replacing Vince Neil has also disputed certain sections of \u201cThe Dirt.\u201d In addition, Phil Lewis from L.A Guns has called \u201cThe Heroin Diaries\u201d a fraud. The most famous of all rebuttals is Tom Werman\u2019s which calls Nikki Sixx a \u201crevisionist.\u201d Even Dee Snider, in his opening forewarning of \u201cShut Up And Give Me The Mic\u201d alludes to a book written by a junkie as not being factually correct.\nSo how much of the truth did Nikki Sixx tweak and re-envision for the sake of a story line?\nAt least the soundtrack to \u201cThe Heroin Diaries\u201d was mind blowing.",

        "raw_content": ">On branding and work vs. personal\n>For those of you who don\u2019t know, I work as a Web producer. It\u2019s a newer type of journalist \u2014 though my company has had Web producers for more than a decade, other companies are just now hiring folks like us to oversee all content aspects of a website \u2014 news-related or otherwise.\nAnd it\u2019s sort of strange \u2014 because I work online for a living, I have developed 2 online personas \u2014 the work, and the personal. But lately I\u2019ve been thinking about that. I\u2019m considering letting the two worlds collide.\nBasically, what I am thinking is of buying a domain name (I have one in mind) and running that site on WordPress or Typepad Pro \u2014 I have accounts with both.\nThen, I would use that site to link up to this blog \u2014 which I don\u2019t wish to move from Blogger \u2014 as well as to my online professional work and all my social media accounts. It would be a one-stop shop for everything Southern Web Girl.\nBecause I don\u2019t have anything to hide, and because I work as a Web producer, I think it would behoove me to brand myself appropriately, to show that I can work on multiple CMS, manage several social media accounts, and have fun while I\u2019m at it.\nI think the only negative to this is that I might worry about people knowing too much about me. It also means that all of you would know where I work, and that those I work with professionally would have access to this blog if they wanted. But I\u2019m sure that right now, you could probably connect all the dots with a few clicks of the mouse anyway.\nSo, thoughts? And if you prefer WordPress vs. Typepad Pro, I would love to hear thoughts on that as well.\nPrevious post>Finding peace with a \u201c30 Before 30\u201d list\nNext postHow-to Disney cooking videos\n6 thoughts on \u201c>On branding and work vs. personal\u201d\n>Everything I have learned is that if you trust in your expertise, it's best to tie personal to public. I am preparing to connect my last name to my blog, in the not too distant future, precisely because if something matters you need to put your all behind it.\n>Personally, I think this is a great decision. I have always maintained my blog as something that could potentially provide other writing samples that aren't strictly journalism-related. It also shows that I am highly involved in the Internet, social media, etc. and I think that's something employers now look for.Melding those worlds together simply means being a bit more careful about what you say. Sometimes I want to rant about a coworker, but I hold back 'cause that information isn't necessarily appropriate in the professional realm. There's obviously a fine line when blending the professional and personal together, but I'm sure you can do it.\n>It sounds like you've put a lot of thought into it, so I think you'll be fine. I haven't used Moveable Type Pro (though I have used Typepad), but I will say that WordPress is an excellent platform to use and get to know better. (I'm surprised you're not considering Blogger, given that this site has been on it for 3 years.)Worse comes to worst, you can delete the new site and keep everything separate. (My Birmingham blog and personal blog are still separate.)\n>I think it's a great idea! Can't wait to hear what you decide, I'm all for it \ud83d\ude42\n>WordPress is amazing. That's all you need to hear.\n>I have a WordPress account and like it much better than I liked Blogger. I've never tried Type Pad, so I can't help you out there!",

        "raw_content": "This research study conducted in March 2010 analyzed the responses of 1,006 representative employees who met the following four screening criteria:\nHousehold income of $30,000 or more\nParticipants were part of MarketTools ZoomPanel and each participant received an incentive from MarketTools to participate in the survey. All respondents took the survey between March 23 and March 26, 2010. The CDA 2010 Consumer Disability Awareness Survey was conducted online.\nThe results of the 2010 Consumer Disability Awareness Survey highlight one key fact: most individuals still underestimate or deny their own chances of becoming disabled. Even more noteworthy, and quite frankly, more troubling, they underprepare for the potentially devastating financial impact on themselves and their families. Here are some other aspects of the great divide this research identified between workers\u2019 general perceptions about disability-and their willingness to prepare for what it could mean to them personally.\n\u201cIt\u2019s likely to happen, but not to me.\u201d\n83% said a disability could happen to anyone at any time but deny it will specifically happen to them.\n\u201cMy income is critical, but protecting it isn\u2019t.\u201d\n90% say they value their ability to earn an income, but almost 40% said they haven\u2019t thought about how they would protect this all-important financial resource.\n\u201cI think disabilities tend to last a year or more, but I could only cover my bills for three months or less.\u201d\nAlmost 70% of survey respondents said a disability would keep a person out of work for more than one year, but 38% said they could only pay bills for three months or less if they lost their income.\n\u201cI think most disabilities are caused by accidents.\u201d\nMore than 70% say a disability (which prevents them from working) would likely be caused by a serious accident, when more than 90% of disabilities are actually caused by illness.\n\u201cMy chances of becoming disabled are slim.\u201d\n44% say they have about a 1% chance of becoming disabled during their working years. Yet the chances are actually about 30% that workers in their 20s will experience a long-term disability prior to retirement.\n\u201cIf I get sick, my benefits will cover my expenses.\u201d\n42% said their primary source to replace lost wages would be money from sick/vacation leave benefits from their employer. But these benefits are poorly understood and typically last only a matter of weeks.\nWhile it appears that workers generally seem to understand the potential long-lasting impact a disability may cause, many avoid taking actions that could help them personally deal with that impact. This and other key findings about \u201cthe disability divide\u201d between employees\u2019 perceptions and reality as well as their beliefs and actions are detailed on the following pages.\nIncome is most valuable in achieving long- term financial security",

However, in the current climate of diminished funding and increased competition, libraries will face the challenge of funding and staffing their initiatives with limited resources. Project management can assist libraries in achieving their projects on schedule and within budget. Best practices in project management are examined in the context of two major projects undertaken at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Library. The first project was the barcoding of three million in three months in preparation for the transition to a new automated library system. The other project is an on-going project to process and transfer 700,000 volumes from its existing collection to a new high density facility within two years.\n1 ~ StephanieAtkins.ppt (209 kB)",

I certainly don\u2019t want to die from too much work,\u201d John said with fear in his voice.\nDeep down, it has me worried as well. As a recovering workaholic this recent study was a reminder to me that none of us are superhuman.\nIn this article I will share the health risks of overworking and will give you specific strategies on how to prevent the health effects of overworking. If you would rather get the \u201cReader\u2019s Digest\u201d version of this blog article, here is the link to a 2-minute TV segment I did on this blog article.\nHeart Attack Risk from Too Much Work\nThe study that has the world talking right now was published this week in the prestigious medical journal, The Lancet. Fully 603,838 people from the U.S., Europe, and Australia were included in this study.\nAfter following all of these people for an average of 8.5 years, researchers concluded that the risk of a heart attack was increased by 13% in those people who work more than 55 hours a week. While this risk may sound quite frightening, this number is much smaller than previous studies which indicated an increased heart attack risk of up to 80% in people working more than 40 hours per week.\nStroke Risk from Overworking\nWhile the risk of a heart attack was only modestly elevated in this study, the risk of a stroke from overworking was very impressive. Indeed, this study showed that in people working more than 55 hours a week, the stroke risk was increased by 33%. Even those who work just a little more than 40 hours a week were at increased risk of a stroke. Is excessive work really worth the cost of potentially spending the rest of your life in a nursing home?\nHow Do Long Working Hours Cause Heart Attacks and Strokes?\nJust why do people who put in long hours at the office, or work multiple jobs, have more heart attacks and strokes? Deep down, I think we all know the inherent risks of overworking from our own experiences.\nHowever, for the skeptics out there, let me share possible reasons for this increased risk based on the best medical data available.\n1. Long Working Hours Increase Our Perceived Stress\nI have come to learn that when I have put in long hours at the hospital I tend to feel more \u201cstress.\u201d Studies show that this stress alone may increase our risk of a heart attack or stroke by up to 40%.\n2. Excessive Work Raises Our Blood Pressure\nWhether it is job stress related, or just due to the fact that we don\u2019t have enough time to live a healthy lifestyle, excessive work raises our blood pressure. Regardless, your risk of high blood pressure is at least twice as high if you work long hours.\n3. Overworking Causes Overeating and Under Exercising\nIt comes as no surprise that the more hours we log in at work the more food we eat, especially the donuts and other treats our coworkers bring in, and the less time we will have to exercise. Indeed, medical studies verify that people who work long hours tend not to have a clean diet and are more likely not to exercise.\n4. Workaholics Are More Likely To Become Diabetic\nAs a direct result of poor food choices at work, as well as being stuck in a chair, workaholics are much more likely to become diabetic. Diabetes is one of the strongest risk factors not only for heart attacks and strokes but also dementia as well.\n5. Long Working Hours Cause Depression\nWhile some people thrive on long working hours, for the rest of us, we tend not to be as happy when work dominates our lives. Is it any wonder then that studies have shown that the more hours you put in at work the higher your chances are of depression? Depression, in turn, is a powerful risk factor for cardiovascular disease.\nCan You Die from Overworking?\nIt should come as no surprise that overworking can cause an early death. Indeed, the Japanese even have a word for this, karoshi. Probably due to the long working hours in Japan, the Japanese have long recognized that even young executives can kill themselves from working too many hours. Are you at risk of a karoshi-death?\nWhat should you do if you routinely put in more than 40 hours per week? With \u201calways on\u201d smartphones, more and more of us never seem to get away from work. What can we do to prevent a karoshi early death (death from overworking)?\nPerhaps the most important thing is to evaluate your priorities and what your goals are in life. Are you running yourself ragged, and destroying your health, just so that you can live in that bigger house, go on those nice vacations, and drive that fancier car? Perhaps the real solution is to simplify and start enjoying your life now.\nIn my experience as a cardiologist, most of my patients who develop cardiovascular disease from overworking do so because they do not enjoy working. For these patients, work is something they dread. They live for the weekend and dread Monday mornings. Is it any wonder then that the highest risk of a heart attack is on Monday morning when people are just preparing to go to work?\nThe number one way to avoid the risks of overworking is to find a job or calling in life that doesn\u2019t require \u201cwork.\u201d Try to find a way to get paid for playing or doing something that you love so much you would do it for free. As has often been said, \u201cChoose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.\u201d\n3. Manage or Prevent Perceived Stress\nOf all the risks of overworking, perceived stress seems to be the strongest risk factor for heart attacks and strokes. If you must work long hours, find a way to minimize or eliminate unnecessary perceived stress.\nFor example, if you are in a stressful work environment, perhaps it is time to change jobs. If you love where you are at, but it causes you too much stress, perhaps meditation, yoga, or daily exercise might help you to unwind each day.\n4. Use All Your Vacation Time\nWorking long hours and not using all of your vacation time is a double hit. Surprisingly, 41% of Americans don\u2019t use all of their vacation time. I used to be one of these people. At least if you are going to work hard then you should play hard as well. Even if you are not working long hours never let a vacation day go unused.\n5. Get At Least 7 Hours of Sleep\nTo work more than 40 hours a week, most people steal time from sleep. I know this was one way I used to find extra hours in a day.\nIn previous articles, I have discussed the heart attack, dementia, and cancer risks associated with sleep deprivation. To safely work long hours you must make sleep a major priority in your life.\nToo often, those who are burning the candle at both ends, tend to eat junk at work and then have a big meal when they come home late at night. If you want optimal performance at work, eat a healthy breakfast before you leave in the morning and be sure to pack a healthy lunch and snacks, if needed, throughout the day. Dinners, ideally, should be light and relatively early with nothing to eat right before bed.\nCommit now not to eat the sugar your coworkers will inevitably bring in. Also, the packed healthy lunch you prepare each day will help you to resist fast food, or other garbage, for lunch. Just like you would never knowingly put bad gas in your car, you should never put bad food in your body and expect optimal work performance.\n7. Find Time To Move\nTo safely navigate working long hours you must also find time to move throughout the day. Getting a workout in each day can\u2019t protect you from the dangers of an office job.\nFor example, one study showed that even if you exercise every day, you are 47% more likely to die young if you sit for more than 7 hours a day. Considering that the average American sits 9.3 hours a day, this is probably you. If you work in an office, even if just part-time, consider a treadmill desk, bike desk, standing desk, or even just getting up every 30 minutes to prevent the health risks of sitting.\nThe big picture is that this study confirms the findings of many previous studies. Specifically, working long hours significantly increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke.\nThe key to eliminating this risk is to either simplify your financial needs or find something that does not \u201cfeel like work.\u201d If work is play then, in my experience, you can avoid the cardiovascular risks of working long hours.\nIf you feel compelled to work long hours, or have no other choice, you must take special care of your body. Just like you would never neglect taking care of your car on a long road trip, the same must be true for your body. If you are going to work it hard, you must prevent or manage perceived stress, get restorative sleep, eat the right foods at the right times, and ensure that you are moving through the day. And, of course, please at least promise me that you will use all of your vacation days.\nDo you work long hours? What have you found that helps you to maintain excellent health despite long working hours?\nPosted in heart attacks, How to Prevent the Health Effects of Overworking, Lifestyle",

        "title": "A Small Medicare Solution? \u2013 Real Thriving",
        "raw_content": "Now I have officially joined the Elderly (that is, I am now a geezer) and am forced to carry a Medicare card, I wonder what I should do to help my fellow Baby Boomers. We are told by all responsible economists that Medicare is in trouble, that costs are rapidly outstripping income. There appears to be no solution to the problem. Each year politicians croak about eliminating \u201cfraud, waste and abuse\u201d but it never happens. If Medicare taxes are raised to cover the rising cost of elderly health care, the burden becomes oppressive and reduces prosperity. As we grow older, more of us fall victim to Alzheimer\u2019s and other dementias, and we become huge consumers of health care dollars. What should be done?\nOne small possible solution is HSAs, Health Savings Accounts for Medicare recipients. We who are forced into Medicare and have relatively good health might be better off with a high deductible insurance plan. We could roll the unused monies in the HSA over from year to year and accumulate quite a nice nest egg, a savings account we could use down the road when our needs are greater.\nDo HSAs reduce medical costs? While there are many economists that compile lists of reasons why we should not see medical costs go down, those are theoretical issues. In theory, someone told me, there is no difference between practice and theory. But in practice, there is. So while some say HSAs won\u2019t help, they really do. The reason is very simple. If doctors can be paid in full through an HSA card, there is an incentive to offer lower cost services. And there is the dilemma. There is no downward pressure on prices since most plans insulate the patient against the actual cost.\nA friend told me of a health fair his hospital offered. A proctologist was offering free digital rectal exams (DREs) to check men for prostate cancer. An older gentleman was told his DRE was clean and there was no sign of cancer. The patient was happy, and the doctor asked, \u201cHow long has it been since your last DRE?\u201d Six weeks, said the patient. The doctor was dumbfounded, and asked the patient why he had come in for another one so soon?\n\u201cWell, it was free,\u201d was the reply.\nFree care gets used. But no care is free. TANSTAAFL, said Robert Heinlein, in The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. \u201cThere ain\u2019t no such thing as a free lunch.\u201d The patient abusing the \u201cfree exams\u201d wasted valuable time and resources. He took away time that could have been spent on another more appropriate patient. When you make anything free, whether it is a screening or emergency room care, it gets used more and with less thought.\nBut if I have an HSA, pay for my own medical care, and can roll the excess money over each year, I have an incentive to shop. In fact, HSAs could easily include a small educational component where patients learn how to shop, ask about fees, and negotiate. \u201cIt\u2019s your money,\u201d should be the motto, \u201ctake good care of it!\u201d\nDoubters will cry that our older people are not able to fund an HSA. First, that is not at all true. Citizens over the age of 65 have a good deal of disposable income. We are actually better off than those in their thirties and forties and fifties who are funding our retirements. (Social security is a Ponzi scheme, since all the taxes I paid into it are long since spent on bridges to nowhere and other boondoggles.) So we often could afford it.\nWhat about those who can\u2019t? A solution to that would be for Social Security to fund 75% of the HSA the first year, and decrease that percent each year by 15% until by the fifth year, we geezers are funding it all by ourselves. Suppose you changed the plan so I could enroll in a high-deductible plan plus an HSA. I would be responsible for all my medical expenses up to $3,000. The Feds would give me $2250 and I would put in $750. That gives me $3,000 to pay my deductible, and suppose I don\u2019t use it all. Suppose I take good care of myself, only use $1,000 in the first year? I now have $2,000 to roll over. I pay in $1,200, the Feds give their incentive of $1,800, and I now have $5,000 in my HSA. Each year my HSA would grow, and I would pay a greater portion until after five years, I am paying the whole $3,000.\nAn option might be that if I raise my deductible, my insurance should cost less that year. Suppose the Feds and I split the savings? That would further incentivize me to assume more and more responsibility for my own health care.\nGovernment isn\u2019t necessarily the problem, and it usually isn\u2019t the solution. But using good design in government entitlements can nudge old geezers like me toward more self-care and wiser use of resources.\nBy adminlynn|2016-11-26T08:52:13+00:00December 21st, 2011|Baby Boomers, Health, Resiliency, Retirement|2 Comments\nJane Faulkner December 23, 2011 at 10:21 am\t- Reply\nThe educational component of implementing a change like this is huge. I remember Medicare Part D! I believe this would work for you as an intelligent, healthy, health care savy individual. I worry about about the people who despite taking care of them selves are cursed with genes that make it difficult to stay healthy. I worry about people with chronic mental illness and people of low intelligence and their ability to manage complex systems. Come up with a system that works well for these people and the rest of us will love it.\nDr.J December 30, 2011 at 8:03 am\t- Reply\nNice point, Jane. Actually, I have genes that make it hard for me to be healthy. One of the great discoveries of our day is that we can actually influence our own genes. Gene expression means we can program our own genes to either turn on or off. We want to turn off the cortisol and stress-y genes, and turn on genes that make us healthier.",

        "raw_content": "The climate impacts of high-speed rail and air transportation : a global comparative analysis\nAlternative Title: The climate impacts of HSR and air transportation : a global comparative analysis\nAuthor: Clewlow, Regina Ruby Lee\nAdvisor: Joseph M. Sussman.\nDepartment: Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Engineering Systems Division.\nGrowing concerns about the energy use and climate impacts of the transportation sector have prompted policymakers to consider a variety of options to meet the future mobility needs of the world's population, while simultaneously addressing the impact of these systems on our environment. This dissertation focuses on air transportation and high-speed rail (or \"high-speed transportation\"), a sector for which demand is projected to grow substantially, and for which infrastructure and vehicle investment decisions are costly and long-lived. This research examines high-speed rail (HSR) and aviation systems in three regions to explore: 1) the historical context of high-speed rail and aviation demand; 2) potential policies that may shape HSR and aviation system demand and their environmental impacts in the future; and 3) individual mode choice between HSR and aviation. The goal of this work is to improve our understanding of demand for these systems and methods to examine their climate impacts. Chapters 3 and 4 provide an empirical analysis of the European experience with highspeed rail and aviation systems. First, we contribute to econometric analyses of air travel demand by examining the impact of high-speed rail on air traffic. Using origin-destination demand data as well as airport demand data for two decades, our econometric analysis shows that the introduction of high-speed rail has resulted in substantial decline in air traffic on short-haul routes, as well as domestic air traffic in nations with high-speed rail infrastructure. Those cities that have higher density experience an even larger reduction in air traffic. However, we find that over this same time period, the expansion of low-cost carriers in Europe has had an even more substantial impact on increasing total air traffic within the European aviation system. Second, we explore cooperation versus competition between high-speed rail and air transportation systems. Through case studies and travel demand analysis, we examine how air-rail connections have formed in Europe, factors that contribute to high utilization of these connections, and their impact on travel demand. We find that although capacity shifts within the air transportation system have occurred as a result of these connections, there are a number of unique factors that contribute to their success. In Chapter 5, we shift our attention to the United States to conduct an integrated analysis of transportation and climate policies. By developing a new model to examine high-speed rail and aviation demand and their environmental impacts under alternative climate and energy policies, we find that the energy and CO2 emission savings of high-speed rail increase substantially when combined with such policies. These savings are primarily due to the relative efficiency of high-speed rail systems combined with a shift towards less carbon-intensive efficiency of high-speed rail systems combined with a shift towards less carbon-intensive electricity generation. The first three analyses assume that price and travel time are the dominant factors influencing intercity travel choice between high-speed rail and air transportation. In Chapter 6, we explore the potential influence of environmental attitudes on individual choices between high-speed rail and air transportation. By conducting an intercept survey in China, we find that rail passengers tend to be more concerned about the environment than those individuals likely to choose air travel. Second, we find that high-speed rail accidents do have a significant impact on future mode choice, and that safety concerns play a significant role in intercity travel choice. This dissertation concludes with an analysis of current policies that influence high-speed rail and aviation in the United States, and their long-range environmental impacts. Integrating our findings from the three regional analyses of high-speed rail and aviation, we make recommendations for future policies that shape these long-lived infrastructure systems. Given likely growth in demand for high-speed transportation in the United States and other regions, our goal is to inform future investment decisions and policies that meet these mobility needs while mitigating their energy and climate impacts.\nThesis (Ph.

With Gemma Quinn as our Managing Director, we know the benefits of a strong female workforce certainly, and that\u2019s why we were delighted to recently take on our first female ductwork engineer, Elle. Elle joins us as a junior ductwork engineer and in her short time with us, she\u2019s already made a big impact on the team and become a key member of our ductwork engineering crew.\nAs our first female ductwork engineer, we asked Elle for her insight into the industry of ductwork engineering and what it\u2019s like working for Ductbusters.\n1. What attracted you to becoming a ductwork engineer?\nPeople take the air we breathe for granted, which is understandable given that we all need it. We often forget that buildings like hospitals and offices need a regular supply of clean air to maintain good health for staff and the public too. I wanted to be a part of a team that works to ensure that the public has access to safe, clean air. In knowing this, I know I\u2019m helping make a difference, and knowing I\u2019ve done my part for the public gives me great job satisfaction.\n2. What aspects do you enjoy most about your work?\nI definitely enjoy the challenges and variety of the work here at Ductbusters; every job is challenging, and every job is different. When I go to a job, it\u2019s often like going into the unknown, you never know what you\u2019re up against. It\u2019s up to you to get the right solution and deliver a great result for the customer.\n3. Do you ever find it difficult being the only female ductwork engineer?\nNo, I don\u2019t find it difficult because everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Whether you\u2019re a man or woman it\u2019s all down to teamwork, and there are parts that I can do which some people can\u2019t and vice versa. It\u2019s also really great to work for a company that has a female Managing Director; you can tell Ductbusters are all about opportunities for everyone.\n4. What would you say to a young woman considering a career in ductwork engineering, or any other male-dominated field?\nI\u2019d say go for it! If it\u2019s something you want to do and are enthusiastic about, those are more important things than worrying about whether more men or women work in that field. The world is full of opportunities and women are fully capable of doing jobs that men can do!\nAt Ductbusters we\u2019re delighted to have Elle joining our team \u2013 and we\u2019re still hiring for more engineers too! If you think a career in ductwork engineering could be right for you, or if you\u2019re an experienced ductwork engineer looking for a new opportunity, contact Ductbusters today: https://ductbusters.co.uk/were-hiring/",

        "title": "Paleoclimatology: A Record from the Deep",
        "raw_content": "A Record from the Deep: Fossil Chemistry\nThe most valuable fossils found in sediment cores are from tiny animals with a calcium carbonate shell, called foraminifera. One species of foraminifera lives in the icy waters of the Arctic above Iceland and near Antarctica. When McManus and other scientists began to uncover a large number of fossils of polar foraminifera in cores collected off the coast of Great Britain as part of an ongoing research project, they knew that the waters there had once been much colder. Once the fossils had been dated, they told scientists when the ocean had been icy cold. By finding cold-water foraminifera of the same age elsewhere in the oceans, scientists can construct maps showing where cold water existed at various points in the Earth\u2019s history.\nA Record from the Deep\nThe Ice Core Record\nClimate Close-up\nExplaining the Evidence\nUnderstanding the Past to Predict the Future\nThe microfossils themselves can speak volumes about the chemistry and temperature of the ocean. The calcium carbonate shells of foraminifera and coccoliths (their plant counterparts), and the silicon dioxide shells of radiolarians (animals) and diatoms (tiny plants) all contain oxygen. Oxygen in sea water comes in two important varieties for paleoclimate research: heavy and light. The ratio of these different types of oxygen in the shells can reveal how cold the ocean was and how much ice existed at the time the shell formed. In general, the shells contain more heavy oxygen when ocean waters are cold and ice covers the Earth. [For details, see The Oxygen Balance.]\nWind and Water Currents\nA large deposit of microfossils of plants and animals can also tell scientists about ocean currents and wind patterns. Ocean plants and animals use the nutrients at the surface of the ocean, die, and then carry the nutrients with them as they sink to the sea floor. In some regions, strong ocean currents sweep nutrients up from the bottom to feed a thriving population. Called upwelling, the phenomenon drives plant and animal populations up until the nutrients are all used, and the microscopic plants and animals die. A small plant called a diatom takes particular advantage of upwelling. Ocean cores hint at patterns of upwelling when one contains a particularly thick layer of microfossils, especially diatoms, from the same time. Since upwelling currents are largely driven by the wind, these patterns also tell scientists something about wind and weather patterns.\nForaminifera skeletons found in sediment cores provide scientists a means to date cores. Fossils also contain information about ocean temperature, chemistry, currents, and surface winds. (Micrograph copyright Eric Condliffe, University of Leeds Electron Optics Image Laboratory)\nDust in ocean cores can reveal weather and current patterns. Today, great plumes of Saharan dust snake their way across the Atlantic to the American continents. Dust blows into the Pacific from Asia\u2019s vast interior deserts. When the dust shows up in ocean cores, scientists can analyze its chemistry to determine where it came from. By charting the distribution of the dust, scientists can see where the winds were blowing and how strong they were. The dust also gives scientists a glimpse into how dry and dusty the climate may have been at a particular time.\nThis image sequence shows the cross-section of a core drilled in the Mediterranean Sea. Sediment layers can be formed from dust, volcanic ash, river sediments, underwater mudslides, plant and animal skeletons, precipitated calcium carbonate, or salts left behind by an evaporated sea. (Image courtesy Integrated Ocean Drilling Program)\nBits of continental dust can be swept into the ocean by rivers as well as the wind. The dust\u2019s location on the ocean floor as well as the mineral content of the dust give scientists clues about where the dust came from and how it arrived at its final location on the ocean floor. For example, dust in the middle of the Pacific Ocean is more likely to have been carried on the wind than deposited by rivers.\nSediment made up of mineral grains from the continents can also tell about ocean currents. After the sediment is dumped in the ocean by the wind or rivers, it is swept on currents to its final resting place on the ocean floor. The distribution of the mineral grains can reveal how strong the currents were and where they flowed. Currents also carry icebergs from their point of origin toward the equator where the ice melts. Rocks and soil embedded in the icebergs sink to the ocean floor and later show up in ocean sediment cores. Their final location tells scientists where currents once flowed, and, indirectly, where water warm enough to melt the ice existed.\nOcean cores proved invaluable as scientists built a picture of the Ice Age Earth. They provided a record of a large part of the Earth stretching back millions of years, showing large patterns of climate change. In a project called Climate: Long-Range Investigation, Mapping, and Prediction (CLIMAP) in the 1970s, sea cores allowed scientists to reconstruct the climate of the Earth in the last Ice Age 20,000 years ago. \u201cIt\u2019s still one of the major successes of the deep sea,\u201d says McManus. \u201cEven today, it serves as the focus of new studies.\u201d\nWind can transport dust grains thousands of miles from the interior of a continent out into the open ocean. Dust in sediment cores can indicate the direction of prevailing winds and conditions on land far from the core\u2019s location. (NASA Image courtesy Jeff Schmaltz, MODIS Land Rapid Response Team)\nThough ocean sediment cores are immensely valuable for tracking climate over most of the Earth, they do not give scientists a picture of year-to-year change. For that, scientists look at information preserved in the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica. The next installment in this series will describe how scientists use ice cores to understand year-to-year variation in Earth\u2019s past climate.\nBradley, R., 1999: Paleoclimatology, Academic Press, Harcourt Brace and Company, San Diego, California.\nImbrie, J. and K.

This map shows the difference in temperatures between then and now (blue areas were colder, red areas warmer). One interesting feature is the presence of much colder water in the North Atlantic\u2014evidence that the Gulf Stream Current has shifted in the past.

        "raw_content": "Ty Rattie knows he must act quick to win over new Edmonton Oilers head coach Ken Hitchcock\nEdmonton Oilers' goalie Cam Talbot (33) and Ty Rattie (8) celebrate the win over the Vancouver Canucks' during preseason action in Edmonton on Tuesday September 25, 2018.Jason Franson / CP\nThe window opened just a smidge for Ty Rattie on Saturday, but how long it stays that way before Ken Hitchcock slams it shut again is anyone\u2019s guess.\nGiven their four-year history in St. Louis, where Rattie never seemed to be part of Hitchcock\u2019s plan, it would be wise to act fast.\nSince Hitchcock took over the Edmonton Oilers, it looked like St. Louis all over again. Rattie watched his minutes fall from about 14 or 15 a night under Todd McLellan to 8:30, 8:22, 3:32 and two nights in the press box before returning to the lineup Saturday against Las Vegas \u2014 perhaps only because newly-acquired waiver pickup Valentin Zykov isn\u2019t quite ready to go yet.\nRattie is well aware he might not have a lot of time to show the new coach he\u2019s for real.\n\u201cIt\u2019s urgent, for sure,\u201d said the 25-year-old winger. \u201cI have to prove right away that I can play the next game, and the next game after that. I think I\u2019ve done a good job of that so far this year, but that being said it was under a different coach. This is new time now, I have to re-prove myself.\u201d\nRattie thought he was well on his way to shedding the question marks and solidifying his spot on an Oilers roster that needs inexpensive wingers who can produce a little.\nHe notched five goals and four assists in 14 games last season after being called up to play on the first line with Connor McDavid, added seven goals and four assists in four pre-season games this year and got off to a decent start in the first four games of October with a goal and an assist.\nBut Rattie lost his momentum, and his spot on the first line, when an injury shelved him for nine games and then he lost his equity with the coaching staff when McLellan got replaced by the guy who didn\u2019t like his game very much in St. Louis.\nRattie played just 30 NHL games over four years with Hitchcock there.\n\u201cI worked my way back and now it\u2019s just a matter of gaining the new coach\u2019s trust and proving to him that I can be there night in and night out,\u201d Rattie said, adding he has to show Hitchcock he\u2019s grown as a player and isn\u2019t the same guy who couldn\u2019t get his foot in the door with the Blues.\n\u201cI\u2019m a different player, for sure, than he saw before. I\u2019m more well-rounded. I\u2019m more of a 200-foot player, now. I think I\u2019ve done a good job of that this year when I\u2019ve been in, now it\u2019s just a matter of proving to the new coach that I can continue to be that guy, proving I can be that player for him.\u201d\nWhile it\u2019s fair to assume he was a bit deflated when Hitchcock came to Edmonton, Rattie says that wasn\u2019t the case at all.\n\u201cOh no. He\u2019s a well-respected coach. I had him for the years I was in St. Louis and he knows the game. It\u2019s just a matter of me proving to him that I\u2019m not the same player I was then, that I can play in this league and help his team win.\u201d\nAsked if the jury is still out on whether Rattie can be a full-time player here and what he has to do to shift the balance in his favour, Hitchcock replied it\u2019s all about how he wants his bottom six to look.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know that the jury is out,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m trying to build a line. I\u2019m trying to figure out how I can build two third lines. You can\u2019t win in the NHL unless you have two third lines. A third and a fourth line doesn\u2019t work anymore.\u201d\nAnd just four players are competing for the fifth and sixth spot on defence, Hitchcock has a handful of forwards vying for three spots on the bottom line.\n\u201cTy is in there, Ryan Spooner is in there, Zykov is in there, Jujhar Khaira is in there, Patrick Russell is in there. When Tobias Rieder comes in, it sets us up a lot better.\n\u201cI\u2019m trying to build something and Ty is in that mix. If he steps out of that mix, he\u2019s going to have a full-time job but I have to figure out where this is going to end up.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Can \u2018The Worlds End\u2019 Live Up To The Hype?\nSpaced and The Office brought sitcoms kicking and screaming into the present and made the likes of Coupling and Friends look like relics of an age where everyone dressed like a C&A mannequin and talked like one too. Suffice to say, expectations were high for Shaun.\nLuckily, Wright and Pegg (with the help of a great comedy cast including Dylan Moran, Nick Frost, Lucy Davies (from The Office) wrote a fantastic script and made an incredibly funny film out of it. Considering that Dawn of the Dead, Land of the Dead and 28 Days Later all came out within an 18 month period surrounding Shaun, it\u2019s Wright and Pegg\u2019s film that is still imitated to this day. There aren\u2019t many comedy-horrors \u2013 particularly in the UK \u2013 that don\u2019t have \u201cThis year\u2019s Shaun of the Dead!\u201d displayed boldly on the cover. It\u2019s more than just lazy journalism though. The film resonated with audiences and filmmakers alike.\nIt feels disingenuous to say that Wright/Pegg have a \u201cformula\u201d, but there are of course similarities in style that run throughout Spaced, Shaun of the Dead and the film that followed, Hot Fuzz. Unlike Shaun, which was a zombie film that lives and breathes the world of that genre, Hot Fuzz is much more self-aware and has elements of parodying its genre, in its case the action movie. However, they certainly repeated the trick of creating a film that was hilarious and extremely popular, and all the talk afterwards was: What\u2019s next?\nShaun and Hot Fuzz were released within three years of each other, and since then, the partnership has headed off in different directions. Edgar Wright has co-written Spielberg\u2019s first Tintin adventure and directed the very awesome but underperforming comic book adaptation of Scott Pilgrim versus The World. Simon Pegg has been fortunate enough to be a part of two enormous film franchises \u2013 Mission Impossible and Star Trek, and has starred in various films in the UK and Hollywood. After six years, and with a lot of hype surrounding it, The Worlds End finally arrives in cinemas on the 19th July 2013.\nThe question that exists now, is: Can The Worlds End possibly live up to the hype? Not just financially (Shaun and Hot Fuzz were both very successful at the box office both in the UK and worldwide) but critically and within their solid fan base. Even in the DVD extras of Shaun of the Dead, where Wright and Pegg are detailing their flipchart version of the film where they had mapped out the film before even writing the script, they had drawn a cinema with a seated audience, and one of the speech bubbles for an audience member said: \u201cNot as good as Spaced!\u201d Although it\u2019s a joke, it clearly shows that these guys are fully aware of the weight of expectation that meets their films.\nThe third film in what is loosely being called The Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy (in reference to the fact that Cornetto ice creams feature in each of the films, and a comic nod to Krzysztof Kieslowski\u2019s Three Colours trilogy) has arguably more expectations than any of their films before. They\u2019ve proven themselves to be great comic storytellers, but when do the jokes run out of steam? Especially when you have Simon Pegg and Nick Frost pairing up for a third time. There aren\u2019t many examples of third films that are better than what came before.\nThere is a difference with these three films though. They are not a trilogy per se, and Wright and Pegg have clearly been working on the script and the film itself for a very long time. There is clearly a lot of talent on screen and a great team surrounding them \u2013 particularly Nira Park, their producer \u2013 who know exactly how to get the best out of the material they create. If this film is going to be the final film in the \u201ctrilogy\u201d, they will be looking to go out with a bang, not a whimper.\nThe film is likely to live up to the hype, and then the fans will be waiting for the fourth collaboration. You can never run out of Cornetto flavours, after all.\nImage Source: Collider\nTags: british film, edgar wright, hot fuzz, nick frost, Sci Fi, shaun of the dead, simon pegg, the worlds end, Zombies\nThe 5 Greatest Scrolling Shoot \u2018Em Ups of the 90\u2019s AMD: Your provider of next generation GPUs, CPUs, and even Mac Pro power",

        "raw_content": "For other uses, see Dye (disambiguation).\nChemical structure of indigo dye, the blue coloration of blue jeans. Once extracted from plants, indigo dye is almost exclusively synthesized industrially.[1]\nYarn drying after being dyed in the early American tradition, at Conner Prairie living history museum.\nA dye is a colored substance that has an affinity to the substrate to which it is being applied. The dye is generally applied in an aqueous solution, and may require a mordant to improve the fastness of the dye on the fiber.[2]\nBoth dyes and pigments are colored, because they absorb only some wavelengths of visible light. Dyes are usually soluble in water whereas pigments are insoluble. Some dyes can be rendered insoluble with the addition of salt to produce a lake pigment.\nNatural vs syntheticEdit\nDyeing wool cloth, 1482: from a French translation of Bartolomaeus Anglicus\nMain article: Natural dye\nThe majority of natural dyes are derived from plant sources: roots, berries, bark, leaves, and wood, fungi, and lichens.[3] Most dyes are synthetic, i.e., are man-made from petrochemicals. Other than pigmentation, they have a range of applications including organic dye lasers,[4] optical media (CD-R) and camera sensors (color filter array).\nTextile dyeing dates back to the Neolithic period. Throughout history, people have dyed their textiles using common, locally available materials. Scarce dyestuffs that produced brilliant and permanent colors such as the natural invertebrate dyes Tyrian purple and crimson kermes were highly prized luxury items in the ancient and medieval world. Plant-based dyes such as woad, indigo, saffron, and madder were important trade goods in the economies of Asia and Europe. Across Asia and Africa, patterned fabrics were produced using resist dyeing techniques to control the absorption of color in piece-dyed cloth. Dyes from the New World such as cochineal and logwood were brought to Europe by the Spanish treasure fleets[5], and the dyestuffs of Europe were carried by colonists to America.[6]\nDyed flax fibers have been found in the Republic of Georgia in a prehistoric cave dated to 36,000 BP.[7][8] Archaeological evidence shows that, particularly in India and Phoenicia, dyeing has been widely carried out for over 5,000 years. Early dyes were obtained from animal, vegetable or mineral sources, with no to very little processing. By far the greatest source of dyes has been from the plant kingdom, notably roots, berries, bark, leaves and wood, only few of which are used on a commercial scale. The first synthetic dye, mauveine, was discovered serendipitously by William Henry Perkin in 1856.[9][10]\nHistorical collection of over 10,000 dyes at Technical University Dresden, Germany\nThe discovery of mauveine started a surge in synthetic dyes and in organic chemistry in general. Other aniline dyes followed, such as fuchsine, safranine, and induline. Many thousands of synthetic dyes have since been prepared.[11][12][13]\nRIT brand dye from mid-20th century Mexico, part of the permanent collection of the Museo del Objeto del Objeto\nA woman dying her hair.\nDyes are classified according to their solubility and chemical properties.[2]\nAcid dyes are water-soluble anionic dyes that are applied to fibers such as silk, wool, nylon and modified acrylic fibers using neutral to acid dye baths. Attachment to the fiber is attributed, at least partly, to salt formation between anionic groups in the dyes and cationic groups in the fiber. Acid dyes are not substantive to cellulosic fibers. Most synthetic food colors fall in this category. Examples of acid dye are Alizarine Pure Blue B, Acid red 88, etc.\nBasic dyes are water-soluble cationic dyes that are mainly applied to acrylic fibers, but find some use for wool and silk. Usually acetic acid is added to the dye bath to help the uptake of the dye onto the fiber. Basic dyes are also used in the coloration of paper.\nDirect or substantive dyeing is normally carried out in a neutral or slightly alkaline dye bath, at or near boiling point, with the addition of either sodium chloride (NaCl) or sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) or sodium carbonate (Na2CO3). Direct dyes are used on cotton, paper, leather, wool, silk and nylon. They are also used as pH indicators and as biological stains.\nMordant dyes require a mordant, which improves the fastness of the dye against water, light and perspiration. The choice of mordant is very important as different mordants can change the final color significantly. Most natural dyes are mordant dyes and there is therefore a large literature base describing dyeing techniques. The most important mordant dyes are the synthetic mordant dyes, or chrome dyes, used for wool; these comprise some 30% of dyes used for wool, and are especially useful for black and navy shades. The mordant potassium dichromate is applied as an after-treatment. It is important to note that many mordants, particularly those in the heavy metal category, can be hazardous to health and extreme care must be taken in using them.\nVat dyes are essentially insoluble in water and incapable of dyeing fibres directly. However, reduction in alkaline liquor produces the water-soluble alkali metal salt of the dye. This form is often colorless, in which case it is referred to as a Leuco dye, and has an affinity for the textile fibre. Subsequent oxidation reforms the original insoluble dye. The color of denim is due to indigo, the original vat dye.\nReactive dyes utilize a chromophore attached to a substituent that is capable of directly reacting with the fiber substrate. The covalent bonds that attach reactive dye to natural fibers make them among the most permanent of dyes. \"Cold\" reactive dyes, such as Procion MX, Cibacron F, and Drimarene K, are very easy to use because the dye can be applied at room temperature. Reactive dyes are by far the best choice for dyeing cotton and other cellulose fibers at home or in the art studio.\nDisperse dyes were originally developed for the dyeing of cellulose acetate, and are water-insoluble. The dyes are finely ground in the presence of a dispersing agent and sold as a paste, or spray-dried and sold as a powder. Their main use is to dye polyester, but they can also be used to dye nylon, cellulose triacetate, and acrylic fibers. In some cases, a dyeing temperature of 130 \u00b0C (266 \u00b0F) is required, and a pressurized dyebath is used. The very fine particle size gives a large surface area that aids dissolution to allow uptake by the fiber. The dyeing rate can be significantly influenced by the choice of dispersing agent used during the grinding.\nAzoic dyeing is a technique in which an insoluble Azo dye is produced directly onto or within the fiber. This is achieved by treating a fiber with both diazoic and coupling components. With suitable adjustment of dyebath conditions the two components react to produce the required insoluble azo dye. This technique of dyeing is unique, in that the final color is controlled by the choice of the diazoic and coupling components. This method of dyeing cotton is declining in importance due to the toxic nature of the chemicals used.\nSulfur dyes are inexpensive dyes used to dye cotton with dark colors. Dyeing is effected by heating the fabric in a solution of an organic compound, typically a nitrophenol derivative, and sulfide or polysulfide. The organic compound reacts with the sulfide source to form dark colors that adhere to the fabric. Sulfur Black 1, the largest selling dye by volume, does not have a well defined chemical structure.\nFood dyesEdit\nOne other class that describes the role of dyes, rather than their mode of use, is the food dye. Because food dyes are classed as food additives, they are manufactured to a higher standard than some industrial dyes. Food dyes can be direct, mordant and vat dyes, and their use is strictly controlled by legislation. Many are azo dyes, although anthraquinone and triphenylmethane compounds are used for colors such as green and blue. Some naturally occurring dyes are also used.\nOther important dyesEdit\nA number of other classes have also been established, including:\nOxidation bases, for mainly hair and fur\nLaser dyes:rhodamine 6G and coumarin dyes.[14]\nLeather dyes, for leather\nFluorescent brighteners, for textile fibres and paper\nSolvent dyes, for wood staining and producing colored lacquers, solvent inks, coloring oils, waxes.\nContrast dyes, injected for magnetic resonance imaging, are essentially the same as clothing dye except they are coupled to an agent that has strong paramagnetic properties.[15]\nMayhems dye, used in water cooling for looks, often rebranded RIT dye\nChromophoric dyesEdit\nBy the nature of their chromophore, dyes are divided into:[16]\nCategory:Acridine dyes, derivates of acridine\nCategory:Anthraquinone dyes, derivates of anthraquinone\nArylmethane dyes\nCategory:Diarylmethane dyes, based on diphenyl methane\nCategory:Triarylmethane dyes, derivates of triphenylmethane\nCategory:Azo dyes, based on -N=N- azo structure\nPhthalocyanine dyes, derivatives of phthalocyanine\nQuinone-imine dyes, derivatives of quinone\nCategory:Azin dyes\nCategory:Eurhodin dyes\nCategory:Safranin dyes, derivates of safranin\nCategory:Indophenol dyes, derivates of indophenol\nCategory:Oxazin dyes, derivates of oxazin\nOxazone dyes, derivates of oxazone\nCategory:Thiazine dyes\nCategory:Thiazole dyes\nCategory:Safranin dyes\nFluorene dyes, derivatives of fluorene\nPyronin dyes\nCategory:Fluorone dyes, based on fluorone\nCategory:Rhodamine dyes, derivatives of rhodamine\nDyes produced by the textile, printing and paper industries can end up in waste waters and are therefore a potential source of pollution of rivers and waterways[17].\nVarious porous materials, often used to adsorb harmful chemicals in general, have been specifically tested to remove dyes from aqueous environments, especially those who could combine wide availability, fast kinetics and strong adsorption capacities.[18]\nPossible examples include nickel oxide nanoplates[17], clays[19], activated carbons[20], composites of hydroxyapatite with organic substrates [21][22], graphene oxides[23].\nBiological pigment, any colored substance in organisms\nBlue Wool Scale\nIndustrial dye degradation\nJ-aggregate\nPhototendering\n^ Elmar Steingruber (2004). \"Indigo and Indigo Colorants\".

        "raw_content": "Kutrigurs\nEurope and northern Africa in c. 600 AD.\nKutrigurs were Turkic[1] nomadic equestrians who flourished on the Pontic-Caspian steppe in the 6th century AD. To their east were the similar Utigurs. They warred with the Byzantine Empire and the Utigurs. Towards the end of the 6th century they were absorbed by the Avars under pressure from the Turks.\nThe name Kutrigur, also recorded as Kwrtrgr, \u039a\u03bf\u03c5\u03c4\u03c1\u03af\u03b3\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c5\u03c4\u03bf\u03cd\u03c1\u03b3\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c4\u03c1\u03af\u03b3\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c4\u03c1\u03af\u03b3\u03bf\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c5\u03c4\u03c1\u03af\u03b3\u03bf\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c4\u03c1\u03ac\u03b3\u03b7\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c5\u03c4\u03c1\u03ac\u03b3\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9, \u039a\u03bf\u03c4\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1\u03b3\u03ae\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9,[2] has been suggested as a metathecized form of Turkic *Toqur-O\u011fur, thus the *Quturo\u011fur mean \"Nine O\u011fur (tribes)\".[3] David Marshall Lang derived it from Turkic k\u00f6tr\u00fcg\u00fcr (conspicuous, eminent, renowned).[4] There has been little scholarly support for theories linking the names of Kutrigurs and Utigurs to peoples such as the Guti/Quti and/or Udi/Uti, of Ancient Southwest Asia and the Caucasus respectively, which has been posited by Osman Karatay,[5] or Du\u010d'i (some read Kuchi) Bulgars by Josef Markwart.[6]\nGrousset thought that the Kutrigurs were remnants of the Huns,[7] Procopius recounts that:\nin the old days many Huns,[nb 1] called then Cimmerians, inhabited the lands I mentioned already. They all had a single king. Once one of their kings had two sons: one called Utigur and another called Kutrigur. After their father's death they shared the power and gave their names to the subjected peoples, so that even nowadays some of them are called Utigurs and the others - Kutrigurs.[10][11]\nThey occupied the Tanaitic-Maeotic (Don-Azov) steppe zone, the Kutrigurs in the Western part and the Utrigurs towards the East.[12] This story was also confirmed by the words of the Utigur ruler Sandilch:\nIt is neither fair nor decent to exterminate our tribesmen (the Kutrigurs), who not only speak a language, identical to ours, who are our neighbours and have the same dressing and manners of life, but who are also our relatives, even though subjected to other lords\".[10]\nThe Syriac translation of Pseudo-Zacharias Rhetor's Ecclesiastical History (c. 555) in Western Eurasia records thirteen tribes, the wngwr (Onogur), wgr (O\u011fur), sbr (Sabir), bwrgr (Bur\u011fa, i.e. Bulgar), kwrtrgr (Kutri\u011furs), br (probably Vars, also known as the Avars), ksr (Kasr; possibly Akatziri), srwrgwr (Saragur), dyrmr (unknown), b'grsyq (Bagrasir, i.e. Barsil), kwls (unknown), bdl (probably Abdali), and ftlyt (Hephthalite). They are described in typical phrases used for nomads in the ethnographic literature of the period, as people who \"live in tents, earn their living on the meat of livestock and fish, of wild animals and by their weapons (plunder)\".[10][13]\nAgathias (c. 579\u2013582) wrote:\n...all of them are called in general Scythians and Huns in particular according to their nation. Thus, some are Koutrigours or Outigours and yet others are Oultizurs and Bourougounds... the Oultizurs and Bourougounds were known up to the time of the Emperor Leo (457\u2013474) and the Romans of that time and appeared to have been strong. We, however, in this day, neither know them, nor, I think, will we. Perhaps, they have perished or perhaps they have moved off to very far place.[14]\nIn 551, a 12,000-strong Kutrigur army led by many commanders, including Chinialon, came from the \"western side of the Maeotic Lake\" to assist the Gepids who were at the war with the Lombards.[15] Later, with the Gepids, they plundered the Byzantine lands.[15] Emperor Justinian I (527\u2013565) through diplomatic persuasion and bribery tricked the Kutrigurs and Utigurs into mutual warfare.[16][11] Utigurs led by Sandilch attacked the Kutrigurs, who suffered great losses.[11]\nKutrigurs made a peace treaty with the Byzantine Empire, and 2,000 Kutrigurs on horseback, with wives and children, led by Sinnion, entered imperial service and were settled in Thrace.[11][15] The friendly treatment of those Kutrigurs was viewed negatively by Sandilch.[11]\nIn the winter of 558, the remaining large Kutrigur army led by Zabergan crossed the frozen Danube and divided into three sections; one raided south as far as Thermopylae; while two others the Thracian Chersonesus; and the periphery of Constantinople.[17] In March 559 Zabergan attacked Constantinople; one part of his forces consisted of 7,000 horsemen.[18] The transit of such distances in a short period of time shows that they were mounted warriors,[17] and compared to the Chinialon's army, Zabergan's raiders were already encamped near the banks of the Danube.[17]\nA threat to the stability of the Byzantine Empire according to Procopius, Agathias and Menander, the Kutrigurs and Utigurs decimated one another.[11] Some Kutrigur remnants were swept away by the Avars to Pannonia. By 569 the \u039a\u03bf\u03c4\u03b6\u03b1\u03b3\u03b7\u03c1\u03bf\u03af (Kotzagiroi, possibly Kutrigurs), \u03a4\u03b1\u03c1\u03bd\u03b9\u03ac\u03c7 (Tarnzach) and \u0396\u03b1\u03b2\u03b5\u03bd\u03b4\u1f72\u03c1 (Zabender) fled to the Avars from the T\u00fcrks.[11] Avar Khagan Bayan I in 568 ordered 10,000 so-called Kutrigur Huns to cross the Sava river.[19] The Utigurs remained in the Pontic steppe and fell under the rule of the T\u00fcrks.[20][7]\nUtigurs\nOnogurs\n^ The ethnonym of the Huns, like those of Scythians and T\u00fcrks, became a generic term for steppe-people (nomads) and invading enemies from the East, no matter of their actual origin and identity.[8] although this remains controversial. [9]\n^ Sometime about A.D. 463 a series of nomadic migrations was set off in Inner Asia... Archeological and literary evidence permits us to place the homeland of these newcomers, the Oghur tribes, in Western Siberia and the Kazakh steppes... The Oghurs were part of a large Turkic tribal grouping known in Chinese sources as the Tieh-l\u00ea, who were to be found in Inner Asia as well The fluidity of the situation in the steppes is mirrored in our sources, a kaleidoscope of dissolving and reforming tribal unions... Although some of the antecedents of this important migration are still unclear, there can be no doubt that the 0ghur tribes now became the dominant element in the Ponto-Caspian steppes. The term Oghur denoted \u201cgrouping of kindred tribes, tribal union\u201d and figures in their ethnonyms: Onoghur, Saraghur, etc. The language of these Oghur tribes, which survives today only in Chuvash, was distinct from that of Common Turkic. In 480 we find our earliest firm notice on the Bulghars (\u201cMixed Ones\u201d), a large conglomeration of Oghur, Hunnic and other elements.

        "raw_content": "My Bloody Valentine (band)\nMy Bloody Valentine are an Irish-English rock band formed in Dublin in 1983. Since 1987, its lineup has consisted of founding members Kevin Shields (vocals, guitar, sampler) and Colm \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig (drums, sampler), with Bilinda Butcher (vocals, guitar) and Debbie Googe (bass). Their music is best known for its merging of dissonant guitar textures with ethereal melody and unorthodox production techniques. They helped to pioneer the alternative rock subgenre known as shoegazing during the late 1980s and early 1990s.\nMy Bloody Valentine in July 2008.

The band released a number of successful EPs, including You Made Me Realise (1988), Glider (1990) and Tremolo (1991), and the studio albums Isn't Anything (1988) and Loveless (1991), with the latter often described as their magnum opus, as well as one of the best albums of the 1990s; they were dropped by Creation after its release due to the album's extensive production costs. In 1992, My Bloody Valentine signed to Island Records and recorded several albums worth of unreleased material, remaining largely inactive.\nGooge and \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig left the band in 1995, and were followed by Butcher in 1997. Unable to complete a follow-up to Loveless, Shields isolated himself and, in his own words, \"went crazy\". In 2007, he announced that he had reunited with his bandmates, and My Bloody Valentine subsequently embarked on a world tour. Their long-delayed third studio album m b v was later released in 2013.\n1978\u20131985: FormationEdit\nIn 1978, Kevin Shields and Colm \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig were introduced to each other at a karate tournament in South Dublin.[5] The duo became friends in what has been described as \"an almost overnight friendship\"[6] and later formed The Complex, a punk rock band, with Liam \u00d3 Maonla\u00ed, \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig's friend from Col\u00e1iste Eoin.[7] The band, who performed \"a handful of gigs\" consisting of Sex Pistols and Ramones songs, disbanded when \u00d3 Maonla\u00ed left to form Hothouse Flowers. Shields and \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig later formed A Life in the Day, a post-punk trio, but failed to secure performances with more than a hundred people present.[5] Following A Life in the Day's dissolution, Shields and \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig formed My Bloody Valentine in early 1983 with lead vocalist David Conway. Conway, who performed under the pseudonym Dave Stelfox, suggested a number of potential band names, including the Burning Peacocks, before the trio settled on My Bloody Valentine.[4] Shields has since claimed he was unaware that My Bloody Valentine was the title of a 1981 Canadian slasher film when the name was suggested.[8]\nFrom This is Your Bloody Valentine (1985), \"The Last Supper\" features the band's original post-punk and gothic rock-inspired sound.\nMy Bloody Valentine experienced a number of line-up changes during their initial months. Lead guitarist Stephen Ivers and bassist Mark Ross were recruited in April 1983 and the band would often rehearse near Smithfield and Temple Bar in rehearsal spaces owned by Aidan Walsh. Walsh, who booked some of the band's early performances, said the rehearsals were \"too noisy\" and \"crazy\" that \"next door were giving out hell\".[9] Ross left the band in December 1983 and was replaced by Paul Murtagh, who left the band in early 1984. In March 1984, Shields, Ivers and Conway recorded the band's first demo on a four-track recorder in Shields' parents' home in Killiney. Shields and \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig overdubbed bass and drum tracks at Litton Lane Studios, and the tape was later used to secure a contract with Tycoon Records.[10]\nSoon after recording the demo, Ivers left My Bloody Valentine and Conway's girlfriend, Tina Durkin, joined as a keyboard player.[6] Around this time, Conway, on the suggestion of Shields, contacted Gavin Friday, the lead vocalist of the post-punk band Virgin Prunes. According to Shields, Conway approached Friday in Finglas, asked him for advice and was told to \"get out of Dublin.\"[11] Shields agreed with the advice, commenting in January 1991 that \"there was no room for us\" in Ireland; \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig explained that the Irish music scene was not receptive to their style.[12] Friday provided the band with contacts that secured them a show in Tilburg, Netherlands. The band relocated to the Netherlands after the show and lived there for a further nine months, opening for R.E.M. on one occasion on 8 April 1984. Due to a lack of opportunities and a lack of correct documentation,[6] the band relocated to West Berlin, Germany in late 1984 and recorded their debut mini album, This Is Your Bloody Valentine (1985). The album failed to receive much attention and the band returned temporarily to the Netherlands, before settling in London, United Kingdom in the middle of 1985.[13][14]\n1985\u20131986: Independent releasesEdit\nFollowing their relocation to London in 1985, members of My Bloody Valentine lost contact with each other while looking for accommodation and Tina Durkin, not confident in her abilities as a keyboard player, left the band.[10] When the remaining three members regained contact with one another, the band decided to audition bassists, as they lacked a regular bassist since their formation. Shields acquired Debbie Googe's telephone number from a contact in London, invited her to audition and subsequently recruited her as a bassist. Googe managed to attend rehearsals, which were centred around her day job. Rehearsal sessions were regularly held at Salem Studios, which was connected to the independent record label Fever Records. The label's management were impressed with the band and agreed to release an extended play, provided the band would finance the recording sessions themselves. Released in December 1985, Geek! failed to reach the band's expectations; however, soon after its release, My Bloody Valentine were performing on the London gig circuit, alongside bands such as Eight Living Lags, Kill Ugly Pop and The Stingrays.[10]\nDue to the band's slow progress, Shields contemplated relocating to New York City, where members of his family were living at the time. However, Creation Records co-founder Joe Foster had decided to establish his own record label, Kaleidoscope Sound and persuaded My Bloody Valentine to record and release an EP. The New Record by My Bloody Valentine, produced by Foster, was released in October 1986 and was a minor success, peaking at number 22 on the UK Indie Chart upon its release.[15] On the strength of the release, the band began performing more frequent shows, later developing a small following and travelling outside London for live performances, supporting and opening for bands such as The Membranes.[10]\n1987: Lazy Records and Butcher's recruitmentEdit\nBilinda Butcher performing in 1989\n\"Clair\"\nFrom Ecstasy (1987), \"Clair\" was one of the first recordings to feature vocalist and guitarist Bilinda Butcher.\nIn early 1987, My Bloody Valentine signed to Lazy Records, another independent record label, which was founded by the indie pop band The Primitives and their manager, Wayne Morris. My Bloody Valentine's first release on the label was the single \"Sunny Sundae Smile\", released in February 1987. It peaked at number 6 on the UK Indie Singles Chart[16] and the band toured following its release. After a number of performances throughout the United Kingdom, the band managed to secure a support slot with The Soup Dragons. In March 1987, during the tour with The Soup Dragons, David Conway announced his decision to leave the band, due to a gastric illness, disillusionment with music and ambitions to become a writer.[13]\nConway's departure left My Bloody Valentine without a lead vocalist\u2014a situation Shields, \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig and Googe decided to amend by placing advertisements in the local music press. The audition process, which Shields described as \"disastrous and excruciating\", was unsuccessful due to Shields \"mentioning The Smiths, because [he] liked their melodies\", which attracted a number of vocalists he referred to as \"fruitballs\".[10] Although considering forming another group, the band were recommended a number of vocalists from peers and experimented with two lead vocalists, Bilinda Butcher and Joe Byfield. Byfield was deemed unsuited as a vocalist and the band recruited Butcher. Butcher, whose prior musical experience was playing classical guitar as a child and singing and playing tambourine \"with some girlfriends for fun\", had learned that My Bloody Valentine needed a backing vocalist from her partner, who had met Colm \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig on a ferry from the Netherlands. At her audition for the band, she sang \"The Bargain Store\", a song from Dolly Parton's 1975 album of the same name.[17]\nIn light of Butcher's recruitment, Shields became a co-lead vocalist, splitting and often sharing duties alongside Butcher. Commenting on the transition, Shields noted that Butcher \"sounded all right and she could sing one of our songs, we just had to show her how to play guitar.\"[10] Shields was initially reluctant to take on a vocal role within the band, but said that he had \"always sung in the rehearsal room [...] and made up the melodies.\" With the new line up in place, the band intended to drop the My Bloody Valentine moniker, but according to \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig and Shields, the band was unable to decide on a name and kept the moniker \"for better or for worse\".[18]\nUnder pressure from Lazy Records to release a full-length album, My Bloody Valentine compromised and agreed to release a single and subsequent mini album, citing the need for time to stabilize their new line-up. \"Strawberry Wine\", a three-track single, was released in November 1987 and Ecstasy was released a month later. Both received moderate critical acclaim, and peaked at number 13 and 12 on the independent singles and albums chart, respectively.[15] \"Strawberry Wine\", however, was described as \"certainly the better of the two releases\", as Ecstasy was plagued by production difficulties, including errors in the mastering process. Ecstasy was criticised as showing \"a group who appeared to have run out of money halfway through recording\",[10] which was later confirmed, as the band were funding the studio sessions themselves. My Bloody Valentine's contract with Lazy stated that the label would handle promotion of releases, whereas the band would finance the recording sessions. Following their departure from Lazy, who later rereleased \"Strawberry Wine\" and Ecstasy on the compilation album Ecstasy and Wine (1989) without the band's consent,[19] Rough Trade Records offered a deal to finance the recording and release of a full-length album, but the band turned it down.[10]\n1988\u20131991: Creation Records and LovelessEdit\nKevin Shields performing in 1989\nIn January 1988, My Bloody Valentine performed in Canterbury, opening for Biff Bang Pow!, a band that featured Creation Records founder Alan McGee. After \"blowing [Biff Bang Pow!] off the stage\", My Bloody Valentine were described as \"the Irish equivalent to H\u00fcsker D\u00fc\" by McGee,[20] who approached the band after the show and offered them an opportunity to record and release a single on Creation. The band recorded five songs at a studio in Walthamstow, East London in less than a week and in August 1988, released You Made Me Realise. The EP was well received by the independent music press and according to AllMusic's Nitsuh Abebe, the release that \"made critics stand up and take notice of the brilliant things My Bloody Valentine were up to\", adding \"it developed some of the stunning guitar sounds that would become the band's trademark\".[21] It debuted at number 2 on the UK Indie Chart.[22] Following the success of You Made Me Realise, My Bloody Valentine released their debut full-length studio album, Isn't Anything, in November 1988. Recorded in rural Wales,[23] the album was a major success, receiving widespread critical acclaim, peaking at number 1 on the UK Indie Chart[15] and influencing a number of \"shoegazing\" bands, who according to Allmusic, \"worked off the template My Bloody Valentine established with [the album]\".[24]\nIn February 1989, My Bloody Valentine began recording their second studio album at Blackwing Studios in Southwark, London. Creation Records believed that the album could be recorded \"in five days\". However, it soon \"became clear that wasn't going to happen\".[25] Following several unproductive months,[26] during which Shields assumed main duties on the musical and technical aspects of the sessions, the band relocated to a total of nineteen other studios and hired a number of engineers, including Alan Moulder, Anjali Dutt and Guy Fixsen. Due to the extensive recording time, Shields and Alan McGee agreed to release another EP[27] and subsequently the band released Glider in April 1990. Containing the lead single \"Soon\", which featured the first recorded use of Shields' \"glide guitar\" technique,[28] the EP peaked at number 2 on the UK Indie Chart[29] and the band toured in summer 1990 to support its release.[30] In February 1991, while still recording their second album, My Bloody Valentine released Tremolo, which was another critical success and topped the UK Indie Chart.[31]\nFrom Glider (1990) and Loveless (1991), \"Soon\" features a dance-oriented beat behind three tracks of guitarist Kevin Shields' \"glide guitar\" playing.\nReleased in November 1991, Loveless was rumoured to have cost over \u00a3250,000 and bankrupted Creation Records, claims which Shields has denied.[32] Critical reception to Loveless was almost unanimous with praise[33] although the album was not a commercial success. It peaked at number 24 on the UK Albums Chart[34] but failed to chart elsewhere internationally. McGee dropped My Bloody Valentine from Creation Records soon after the release of Loveless, due to the album's extensive recording period and interpersonal problems with Shields.[35]\n1992\u20131997: Island Records and breakupEdit\nMy Bloody Valentine signed with Island Records in October 1992 for a reported \u00a3250,000 contract.[36] The band's advance went towards the construction of a home studio in Streatham, South London, which was completed in April 1993. Several technical problems with the studio sent the band into \"semi-meltdown\", according to Shields,[37] who was rumoured to have been suffering from writer's block.[17] The band remained largely inactive, but they recorded and released two cover songs from 1993 to 1996\u2014a rendering of \"We Have All the Time in the World\" by Louis Armstrong for Peace Together[38] and a cover of \"Map Ref. 41\u00b0N 93\u00b0W\" by Wire for the tribute album Whore: Tribute to Wire.[39]\nIn 1995, Debbie Googe and Colm \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig left My Bloody Valentine. Googe, who briefly worked as a taxi driver following her departure, formed the indie rock supergroup Snowpony with Katharine Gifford, who also performed with Stereolab and Moonshake,[40] and \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig relocated to the United States, forming Hope Sandoval & the Warm Inventions with Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star.[41] Shields and Butcher attempted to record a third studio album, which Shields claimed would be released in 1998.[42] Butcher departed the band in 1997.[17] Unable to finalise a third album, Shields isolated himself, and in his own words \"went crazy\", drawing comparisons in the music press to the eccentric behavior of Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys and Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd.[35] Shields later became a touring member of Primal Scream, collaborated with a number of artists including Yo La Tengo, Dinosaur Jr., and Le Volume Courbe[43] and recorded songs for the soundtrack to the 2003 film Lost in Translation.[44]\nRumours had spread amongst fans that albums worth of material had been recorded and shelved prior to the band's break up. In 1999, it was reported that Shields had delivered 60 hours of material to Island Records,[36] and Butcher confirmed that there existed \"probably enough songs to fill two albums.\"[17] Shields later admitted that at least one full album of \"half-finished\" material was abandoned, stating \"it was dead. It hadn't got that spirit, that life in it.\"[45]\n2007\u20132013: Reunion and m b vEdit\nIn August 2007, reports emerged suggesting My Bloody Valentine would reunite for the 2008 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California, United States.[46] Similar reports had circulated in 2003, stating that Shields, Butcher and \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig were together in Berlin, Germany, re-recording five songs recorded for Glider, which were due for release on an upcoming box set;[47] and in 2007, reports suggested My Bloody Valentine were due to perform at a series of Pod-organised concerts at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Kilmainham, Dublin.[48] Shields later confirmed the reunion and said that the band's third studio album, which he had begun recording in 1996, was near completion.[49] Three live shows in the United Kingdom were announced in November 2007[50] and on 13 June 2008, My Bloody Valentine performed in public for the first time in 16 years during two live rehearsals at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.[51]\nBilinda Butcher and Debbie Googe performing in 2008\nMy Bloody Valentine began an extensive worldwide tour throughout summer and autumn 2008. The band began performing at European music festivals, including the Roskilde Festival in Roskilde, Denmark,[52] \u00d8yafestivalen in Oslo, Norway,[53] and Electric Picnic in Stradbally, Ireland,[54] as well as the Fuji Rock Festival in Niigata, Japan.[55] From 19 to 21 September, the band curated and performed at the 2008 All Tomorrow's Parties festival in New York, United States and later performed throughout North America, including dates in Chicago, Toronto, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Austin.[56] The band spent \u00a3200,000 on equipment for their world tour,[57] which was their first since 1992 in support of Loveless.[58]\nFollowing additional touring in 2009, My Bloody Valentine dedicated their time to completing their third album. Rumours of a My Bloody Valentine box set, which had circulated amongst the public in April 2008 following a listing on HMV Japan's web site,[59] began recirculating. In March 2012, after a number of reported delays, Sony Music Ireland announced the release of the compilation album EP's 1988\u20131991\u2014a collection of the band's Creation Records extended plays, singles and unreleased tracks.[60] The compilation album was released on 4 May 2012, alongside remastered versions of Isn't Anything and Loveless.[61]\nIn November 2012, Kevin Shields announced plans to release My Bloody Valentine's third album online before the end of the year.[62] In December, the band announced on Facebook that the album was completed and mastered,[63] and on 27 January 2013, during a warm-up show at Electric Brixton in London, Shields told the audience that the album \"might be out in two or three days.\"[64] The album, titled m b v, was released through the band's official website on 2 February 2013, although the site crashed on its launch due to high traffic.[65] Upon its release, m b v received \"universal acclaim\", according to Metacritic,[66] and the band began a worldwide tour.[67]\n2013\u2013present: Future plansEdit\nIn 2013, Shields announced plans to release a My Bloody Valentine EP \"of all-new material\", which would be followed by a fourth studio album.[68] In September 2017, it was reported that Shields was working on material for a new My Bloody Valentine album that was projected for release in 2018.[69] As of 2018, two EPs were expected to be released in 2019.[70]\nMy Bloody Valentine's musical style progressed throughout their career. The band were originally influenced by post-punk acts such as The Birthday Party, The Cramps and Joy Division, and as author Mike McGonial noted, \"brought together the least interesting elements\" of their influences.[4] Their debut mini album, This is Your Bloody Valentine (1985), incorporated a further gothic rock sound which AllMusic referred to as \"unfocused and derivative\".[71] However, when the band began experimenting with pop melodies on The New Record by My Bloody Valentine (1986), it marked \"a vital point in the development of their sound\",[72] which was influenced primarily by The Jesus and Mary Chain. The band later took a \"rarified, effete and poppy approach to Byrdsian rock\" with their two successive releases, \"Strawberry Wine\" and Ecstasy (1987).[73] Isn't Anything, and its preceding releases were influenced by American indie rock bands, most notably the distorted guitar-based music Dinosaur Jr. and Sonic Youth, and saw Shields develop his trademark guitar techniques.[74]\nThe band were also formatively influenced by house music as well as hip hop, of which Shields said \"it beats the shit out of most rock music when it comes to being experimental, it's been a constant source of inspiration to us.\"[75] Shield's experimentation with guitar tone would be influenced by sampled sounds employed by Public Enemy and the Bomb Squad,[76] which Shields described as \"half-buried or muted, a real sense of sounds being semi-decayed, or destroyed, but then re-used.\"[77] The band began experimenting with samplers around the time of the Glider EP, utilising them to play back and manipulate their own guitar feedback and vocals on keyboards; by the time of the Tremolo EP, they had acquired a professional Akai sampler.[77] In the mid-1990s, during the recording of m b v (2013), Kevin Shields and Colm \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig began experimenting with jungle and drum and bass music, an underground dance scene in London at the time.[78][79]\n\"You Never Should\"\nFrom Isn't Anything (1988), \"You Never Should\" features use of Kevin Shields' customised tremolo systems for guitar.\n\"In Another Way\"\nFrom m b v (2013), \"In Another Way\" includes elements of drum and bass music from the mid-1990s, marking an \"ultimately powerful\" progression in My Bloody Valentine's sound.[79]\nOne of the most recognisable aspects of My Bloody Valentine's music is Shields' guitar sound, which \"use[s] texture more than technique to create vivid soundscapes.\"[28] During the late 1980s, Shields began customising the tremolo systems for his Fender Jaguars and Jazzmasters; extending the tremolo arm and loosening it considerably, to allow him to manipulate the arm while strumming chords,[28] which resulted in excessive pitch bending. Shields used a number of alternate and open tunings[11] that together with his tremolo manipulation achieved \"a strange warping effect that makes the music wander in and out of focus\", according to Rolling Stone.[80] Shields' most notable effect is reverse digital reverb, sourced from a Yamaha SPX90 effects unit. Together with the tremolo manipulation and distortion, he created a technique known as \"glide guitar\".[81] Shields effects rig, which is composed largely of distortion, graphic equalizers and tone controls,[82] consists of at least 30 effects pedals[57] and is connected to a large number of amplifiers, which are often set to maximum volume to increase sustain. During live performances, and in particular the closing song \"You Made Me Realise\", My Bloody Valentine perform an interlude of noise and excessive feedback, known as \"the holocaust\", which would last for half an hour and often reached 130db.[83] Shields later remarked \"it was so loud it was like sensory deprivation. We just liked the fact that we could see a change in the audience at a certain point.\"[35]\nMBV perform live at The Roadhouse, 2008.\nBilinda Butcher's vocals have been referred to as a trademark of My Bloody Valentine's sound, alongside Shields' guitar techniques. On a number of occasions during the recording of Isn't Anything and Loveless, Butcher was awoken and recorded vocals, which she said \"influenced [her] sound\" by making them \"more dreamy and sleepy\".[84] The vocals in most My Bloody Valentine's recordings are low in the mix[85] as Shields intended for the vocals to be used as an instrument.[86] Critics have often described an androgynous sound to the band's vocals.[87] My Bloody Valentine's lyrics are mostly written by Shields. However, Butcher wrote a third of the lyrics on both Isn't Anything and Loveless, but has referred to a lot of the lyrics as \"plain nonsense.\" According to Butcher, she \"didn't have a plan and never thought about lyrics until it was time to write them. I just used whatever was in my head for the moment.\"[17] Some of her lyrics were written as a result of attempting to interpret rough versions of songs Shields had recorded. Butcher has said: \"He [Shields] never sang any words on the cassettes I got but I tried to make his sounds into words.\"[17] Butcher and Shields would often spend eight to ten hours a night writing lyrics, even though few changes actually resulted, as Shields believed \"there's nothing worse than bad lyrics.\"[88] Spin writer Simon Reynolds has noted that the band's lyrics often contain sexual themes, which are \"a paradoxical blend of force and tenderness\".[87]\nMy Bloody Valentine are regarded by some as the pioneers of the alternative rock subgenre known as shoegazing,[24] a term coined by Sounds journalists in the 1990 to describe certain bands' \"motionless performing style, where they stood on stage and stared at the floor\".[89][90] The band's releases on Creation Records influenced shoegazing acts, including Slowdive, Ride and Lush, and are regarded as providing a platform to allow the bands to become recognised.[91] Following the release of Loveless (1991), My Bloody Valentine were \"poised for a popular breakthrough\", although never achieved mainstream success. However, the band are noted to have been \"profoundly influential in the direction of '90s alternative rock\", according to AllMusic.[92] In 2017, a study of AllMusic's database indicated My Bloody Valentine as its 26th most frequently cited influence on other artists.[93]\nSeveral alternative rock bands have cited My Bloody Valentine as an influence. The Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan was influenced by Isn't Anything upon its release and attempted to recreate its sound on the band's debut album Gish (1991), particularly the closing track \"Daydream\" which Corgan described as \"a complete rip-off of the My Bloody Valentine sound.\"[94] The Smashing Pumpkins two successive studio albums, Siamese Dream (1993) and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (1995), were also influenced by the band.[94] Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails praised Loveless' musical diversity and production,[35] Courtney Love cited the band as an influence on Hole's third album Celebrity Skin (1998).[95] The Edge, guitarist of U2, cited Loveless as a major influence on the guitar sound on Achtung Baby (1991) and referred to My Bloody Valentine as \"head and shoulders above a lot of what was going on at the time.\"[35]\nIsn't Anything was included in The Guardian's list of \"1000 Albums to Hear Before You Die\"[96] and listed at number 22 on Pitchfork's \"Top 100 Albums of the 1980s.\"[97] Loveless was named the best album of the 1990s by Pitchfork in 1999[98] and in 2003, the album was listed as number 219 on Rolling Stone's list of \"The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.\"[99] In 2008, both albums were featured on The Irish Times' \"Top 40 Irish Albums of All Time\" list, where Isn't Anything ranked at number 27 and Loveless at number 1.[100] In 2013, Loveless placed third in the Irish Independent's \"Top 30 Irish Albums of All Time\" list.[101]\nKevin Shields \u2013 vocals, guitars, sampler (1983\u201397, 2007\u2013present)\nColm \u00d3 C\u00edos\u00f3ig \u2013 drums, sampler (1983\u201395, 2007\u2013present)\nDebbie Googe \u2013 bass (1983\u201384, 1985\u201395, 2007\u2013present)\nBilinda Butcher \u2013 vocals, guitars (1987\u201397, 2007\u2013present)\nTouring musiciansEdit\nAnna Quimby \u2013 flute (1991\u201392)\nJen Macro \u2013 keyboards, guitars (2013\u2013present)\nDavid Conway \u2013 vocals (1983\u201387)\nTina Durkin \u2013 keyboards (1984\u201385)\nStephen Ivers \u2013 guitar (1983\u201384)\nPaul Murtagh \u2013 bass (1983\u201384)\nMark Ross \u2013 bass (1983)\nMain article: My Bloody Valentine discography\nIsn't Anything (1988)\nm b v (2013)\nAlternative music portal\nTimeline of alternative rock\nList of alternative rock artists\nList of Irish musical groups\n^ Sutherland, Mark. \"My Bloody Valentine Bring the Noise in London\".

        "raw_content": "The Western Cape Provincial Parliament (WCPP) is the legislature of the Western Cape province of South Africa. It is located at 7 Wale Street in Cape Town.\nWes-Kaapse Provinsiale Parlement\niPalamente yePhondo leNtshona Kapa\nSharna Fernandez, DA\nPiet Pretorius, DA\nDemocratic Alliance (26)\nAfrican National Congress (14)\nEconomic Freedom Fighters (1)\nAfrican Christian Democratic Party (1)\nParty-list proportional representation\n7 Wale Street, Cape Town 8000\nwww.wcpp.gov.za\nThe Provincial Parliament, along with the other provincial legislatures of South Africa, exists by virtue of Chapter 6 of the Constitution of South Africa and Chapter 3 of the Constitution of the Western Cape. It is unicameral, and consists of 42 members elected by a system of party-list proportional representation.\nThe Western Cape is unique amongst the provinces of South Africa in calling its legislature the \"Provincial Parliament\" and the members Members of Provincial Parliament (MPPs). The other provinces use the terms \"Provincial Legislature\" and \"Members of the Provincial Legislature\".\nThe Fifth Provincial Parliament was elected on 7 May 2014 in South Africa's 2014 general elections. A majority of the members belong to the Democratic Alliance.\nSee also: Provincial legislature (South Africa)\nThe Provincial Parliament is modelled on the Westminster system. The executive head of the provincial government, the Premier of the Western Cape, is elected by the Members of the Provincial Parliament from amongst themselves; conventionally the Premier will be the leader of the largest party in the parliament. The Premier then chooses the members of the Provincial Cabinet, who must also be MPPs. The Provincial Parliament also has the power to force the Premier and Cabinet to resign, by passing a motion of no confidence.[1]\nThe legislative power of the Provincial Parliament is restricted to certain fields enumerated in the national Constitution; in some of these fields the power is shared with the national Parliament. The fields on which the Provincial Parliament may legislate include health care, primary and secondary education, agriculture, transport, and land use planning. It also controls the budget of the provincial government departments.\nLegislation may be introduced by any member, except for money bills, which may be introduced only by the Provincial Minister of Finance. Laws passed by the Provincial Parliament must be signed by the Premier before coming into effect. The Premier may refer a bill back to Parliament for reconsideration if she or he believes it is unconstitutional. If the Parliament re-passes it, then the Premier must either sign it or refer it to the Constitutional Court, which can make a final decision on its constitutionality.\nElectionEdit\nThe provincial legislature consists of 42 members, who are elected through a system of party list proportional representation with closed lists. In other words, each voter casts a vote for one political party, and seats in the legislature are allocated to the parties in proportion to the number of votes received. The seats are then filled by members in accordance with lists submitted by the parties before the election.\nThe legislature is elected for a term of five years, unless it is dissolved early. This may occur if the legislature votes to dissolve and it is at least three years since the last election, or if the Premiership falls vacant and the legislature fails to elect a new Premier within ninety days. By convention all nine provincial legislatures and the National Assembly are elected on the same day.\nThe most recent election was held on 7 May 2014. The following table summarises the results.\nDemocratic Alliance 1,259,645 59.38 26\nAfrican National Congress 697,664 32.89 14\nEconomic Freedom Fighters 44,762 2.11 1\nAfrican Christian Democratic Party 21,696 1.02 1\nOther parties 97,386 4.6 0\nTotal 2,121,153 100.0 42\nThe following table shows the composition of the provincial parliament after past elections and floor-crossing periods.\nDP / DA\nNP / NNP\n1994 election 27 April 1994 14 3 23 \u2014 \u2014 1 \u2014 1 (FF)\n1999 election 2 June 1999 18 5 17 \u2014 \u2014 1 \u2014 1 (UDM)\n2003 floor-crossing 4 April 2003 22 7 10 \u2014 \u2014 2 \u2014 1 (NLP)\n2004 election 14 April 2004 19 12 5 \u2014 \u2014 2 3 1 (UDM)\n2005 floor-crossing 15 September 2005 24 13 \u2014 \u2014 \u2014 2 1 2 (UIF)\n2009 election 22 April 2009 14 22 \u2014 3 \u2014 1 2 0\n2014 election 7 May 2014 14 26 \u2014 0 1 1 \u2014 0\nThe presiding officer of the Provincial Parliament is the Speaker, assisted by a Deputy Speaker. The Speaker is Sharna Fernandez and the Deputy Speaker is Piet Pretorius, both members of the Democratic Alliance.\nApart from being the executive head of the province, the Premier also leads the governing party or coalition in the Provincial Parliament. The leader of the largest party not in government is recognised as Leader of the Opposition. As of 2009[update] the Premier is Helen Zille of the Democratic Alliance. Khaya Magaxa of the African National Congress is Leader of the Opposition since 2016, after Marius Fransman resigned after sexual misconduct allegations.[2]\nList of SpeakersEdit\nWillem Doman 1994 2001 NNP\nLynne Brown[3] 2001 2004 ANC\nShaun Byneveldt 2004 2009 ANC\nShahid Esau 2009 2011 DA\nRichard Majola 2011 2014 DA\nSharna Fernandez 2014 Present DA\nList of Opposition LeadersEdit\nTheuns Botha 2004 2009 DA\nLynne Brown 2009 2014 ANC\nMarius Fransman 2014 2016 ANC\nKhaya Magaxa 2016 Present ANC\nProvincial legislature (South Africa)\nList of Members of the Western Cape Provincial Parliament\nList of Acts of the Western Cape Provincial Parliament\n^ Constitution of the Western Cape, 1997\n^ http://whoswho.co.za/marius-fransman-7481\n^ \"South Africa Local Leaders\".

Construction started in 1779 and the basilica was finished in 1790, after the death of Jos\u00e9 caused by smallpox in 1788.\nThe Estrela Basilica was the first church in the world dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.\nThe huge church has a giant dome, and is located in a hill in what was at the time the western part of Lisbon and can be viewed from far away. The style is similar to the Mafra National Palace, in late baroque and neoclassical. The front has twin bell towers and includes statues of saints and some allegoric figures.\nA large quantity of grey, pink and yellow marble was used in the floor and walls, in intricate geometric patterns, one of the most beautiful in European churches. Several paintings by Pompeo Batoni also contribute to a balanced design. The tomb of the Queen Mary I is in the right transept. A famous nativity scene made by sculptor Joaquim Machado de Castro, with more than 500 figures in cork and terra cotta is a major attraction to visitors.\nSt. George's Anglican Church - located nearby\nMedia related to Estrela Basilica at Wikimedia Commons\nReligious buildings in Lisbon\nIgreja de Chelas\nChurch of Nossa Senhora da Concei\u00e7\u00e3o Velha\nHermitage of Restelo\nIgreja da Madre de Deus (S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o)\nIgreja da Mem\u00f3ria\nIgreja do Menino Deus\nIgreja de Nossa Senhora da Luz (Carnide)\nIgreja de Santa Luzia (Lisbon)\nSanto Ant\u00f3nio Church\nIgreja de Santo Est\u00eav\u00e3o (Lisbon)\nIgreja de S\u00e3o Domingos (Santa Justa)\nChurch of Santa Engr\u00e1cia\nRetrieved from \"https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Estrela_Basilica&oldid=858387714\"\n1790 establishments in Portugal\nBasilica churches in Portugal\nRoman Catholic churches in Lisbon\nVotive churches",

        "raw_content": "George N. Leighton\nSenior Judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois\nJames Henry Alesia\nGeorge Neves Leit\u00e3o\nNew Beford, Massachusetts\nJune 6, 2018(2018-06-06) (aged 105)\nHoward University (A.B.)\nGeorge Neves Leighton (born George Neves Leit\u00e3o; October 22, 1912 \u2013 June 6, 2018) was an American jurist who served as a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.\n4 Other service\nEarly life and marriage[edit]\nGeorge Neves Leit\u00e3o was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts to Ana Silva Garcia and Ant\u00f3nio Neves Leit\u00e3o, both originally immigrants from Brava, Cape Verde.[1] Leit\u00e3o learned Cape Verdean Creole and English as a child. His surname was anglicised to \"Leighton\" by a teacher who claimed she could not pronounce his last name \"Leit\u00e3o\". His parents agreed.[2] He grew up in New Bedford and Cape Cod, leaving high school before graduation in order to work on oil tankers. He continued his studies independently and through night school classes until he could enter Howard University.[3] Leighton married Virginia Berry Quivers; the couple had two daughters, Virginia Anne and Barbara Elaine. After her death in 1992, he did not remarry.[4] At the time of his death in June 2018, Leighton had five grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.[5][6] He was a tournament chess player.[7] Leighton turned 100 in October 2012.[8][9] Leighton lived at the Veterans Administration Center in Brockton, Massachusetts.[10]\nLeighton graduated in 1940 from Howard University, a historically black college, with an Artium Baccalaureus degree. In April 1940, Leighton received a hand written note from then Dean of Harvard Law School, James McCauley Landis to visit the law school. The following next weekend, he took a bus to Cambridge and called the dean's office and was allowed to see him. It was there, that Leighton advocated for himself to be admitted by telling Dean Landis his life story. At the conclusion of the meeting, the Dean Landis told him that he would see him in September.[11] He started law school at Harvard University in September 1940 but was interrupted by the United States' entry into World War II. From 1942 to 1945, during World War II, Leighton had served in the United States Army, achieving the rank of Captain and being awarded the Asiatic Pacific Service Metal, Bronze Star. After the war he returned to Harvard Law School and earned a Bachelor of Laws in 1946.[3]\nLeighton was admitted to the Massachusetts bar in 1946. He moved to Chicago, Illinois in 1946 and was admitted to the Illinois bar in 1947. Leighton was in private practice from 1946 to 1964, aside from the period during which he served as Assistant State Attorney General of Illinois (1949 to 1951). He served as a Master in Chancery of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois from 1960 to 1964. Leighton was also involved in the Democratic Party.[12] Leighton was elected as a judge of the Circuit Court of Cook County, serving from 1964 to 1969. He was appointed as a judge with the First District Appellate Court of Illinois, serving from 1969 to 1976. Leighton was the first African American to hold this position in the State of Illinois.[3][13]\nOn December 19, 1975, President Gerald Ford nominated Leighton to a seat on the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. This was a seat being vacated by Judge Abraham Lincoln Marovitz. Leighton was confirmed on February 2, 1976, and received his commission on February 4, 1976. He served until November 30, 1987. After his retirement from federal service, he returned to the practice of law with the firm of Earl L. Neal & Associates.[13] He retired from the law firm of Neal & Leroy at age 99.[14]\nOther service[edit]\nLeighton became a Life Member in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1964. He had served the Chicago branch of the NAACP for several years as president and general counsel.[15] He served as a Trustee of Notre Dame University from 1979 to 1983 when he was elevated to Trustee Emeritus (1983).[16] He was an Adjunct Professor of Law at the John Marshall Law School in Chicago from 1964 to 2004. He taught Criminal Procedure and Prisoners' Rights.[15] Leighton also served as an Overseer of Harvard College from 1983 to 1989.[17]\nLeighton died on June 6, 2018, while being treated for pneumonia at a veterans hospital in Brockton.[14] On November 5, 2018 he was laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery.[18]\nIn 2005 the United States Postal Service located at 695 Pleasant Street in his hometown of New Bedford, Massachusetts, was renamed as the \"Honorable Judge George N. Leighton Post Office Building\" in his honor.\nIn 2009, the Illinois Supreme Court established \"The Honorable George N. Leighton Justice Award.\" The award recognizes one who has given exceptional service to the legal community and exhibits the qualities that personified Judge Leighton's character, service and legal career.\nIn 2012, the Cook County Criminal Courthouse at 2600 South California Avenue, in Chicago, was renamed in his honor as \"The Hon.

On 1 March 1966, the Mizo National Front (MNF) made a declaration of independence, after launching coordinated attacks on the Government offices and security forces post in different parts of the Mizo district in Assam. The Government suppressed the uprising and recaptured all the places seized by the MNF by 25 March 1966. Counter-insurgency operations continued over the next few years, although the intensity of the rebellion diminished over time progressively till its complete resolution in the 1986 peace talks. During the Government operations to suppress the rebellion, the Indian Air Force carried out airstrikes in Aizawl; this remains the only instance of India carrying out an airstrike in its own civilian territory.[1][2]\n2 MNF's plan for armed uprising\n3 Armed action by MNF\n3.1 Lunglei\n3.2 Aizawl\n4 Government response\n4.2 Ground operations\n4.3 Withdrawal of MNF forces\n5 Insurgency\nBefore the formation of the Mizoram state in 1987, the Mizo-dominated areas in India were a part of the Mizo district of the Assam state. The Mizo organisations, including the Mizo Union, had long complained of step-motherly treatment at the hands of the Assam Government, and demanded a separate state for the Mizos.\nEvery 48 years, a cyclic ecological phenomenon called Mautam leads to widespread famine in this region. When such a famine started in 1959, the Mizos were left disappointed by the Assam Government's handling of the situation. The introduction of Assamese as the official language of the state in 1960, without any consideration for the Mizo language, led to further discontent and protests.\nThe growing discontent with the Government ultimately resulted in a secessionist movement led by Mizo National Front (MNF), an organisation that had evolved out of a famine relief team. While the Mizo Union's demand was limited to a separate state for the Mizos within India, the MNF aimed at establishing a sovereign Christian nation for the Mizos.\nMNF's plan for armed uprising[edit]\nThe extremist section within MNF advocated the use of violence to seek independence from India. A special armed wing called the Mizo National Army (MNA) was created for the purpose. The MNA consisted of eight infantry \"battalions\" organised on the pattern of the Indian army. One of the battalions was named after Joshua, while the rest were named after the legendary Mizo heroes: Chawngbawla, Khuangchera, Lalvunga, Saizahawla, Taitesena, Vanapa and Zampui Manga. The Lion Brigade (Chawngbawla, Khuangchera, Saizahawla and Taitesena battalions) operated in the northern half of the district, while the Dagger Brigade (Joshua, Lalvunga, Vanapa and Zampui Manga) operated in its southern half. MNA consisted of around 2000 men, supported by another group called the Mizo National Volunteers (MNV), which comprised an equal number of irregulars.\nIn the early 1960s, the MNF leaders including Pu Laldenga visited East Pakistan (now Bangladesh), where the Government of Pakistan offered them supply of military hardware and training.[3] Laldenga and his lieutenant Pu Lalnunmawia were arrested by the Government of Assam on the charge of conspiring against the nation, but were released in February 1964 after an undertaking of good conduct by Laldenga. However, shortly after their release, MNF intensified its secessionist activities. The MNF members forcibly collected donations from the Mizo people, recruited volunteers and trained them with arms supplied by Pakistan.[3] By the end of 1965, the MNF weapon cache consisted of the plastic explosives stolen from the Border Roads Organisation, rifles and ammunition obtained from the 1st Assam Rifles (AR) headquartered at Aizawl, crude bombs and stenguns.\nThe Indian armed forces, fresh from the Sino-Indian War of 1962 and the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, were focused on the Indo-Pakistan and Indo-China borders. The extremist MNF leaders wanted to take advantage of this situation by starting an armed rebellion to establish an independent Mizo nation. The rehabilitation of the pro-government Chakma refugees from East Pakistan in the Mizo district further instigated them.[4]\nAccordingly, a plan (codenamed \"Operation Jericho\") was created to systematically capture the power in the Mizo district. The MNF aimed at taking over the treasuries and the petrol pumps, neutralising the police force and capturing all the important non-Mizo (\"Vai\") officials. The MNF flag was to be hoisted at Aizawl on 1 March 1966, followed by a victory parade on 2 March 1966. The MNF arsenal would be supplemented by capturing the armouries of the 1st AR, the Border Security Force (BSF) and the local police. The MNF leaders had hoped that they would have a large number of sympathisers among the local police, the Government officials and the AR, which would make the takeover peaceful. They also hoped that if they could keep their flag flying in Aizawl for 48 hours, other countries such as Pakistan would recognise the Mizo territory as a sovereign nation and take up their case in the United Nations.[4] The volunteers and the sympathisers of MNF were promised a prosperous future in the proposed sovereign state.\nThe plan was kept in strict secrecy. As a cover, the MNF leaders indulged in public propaganda advocating use of \"non-violent means\" to achieve independence for Mizos. The MNF commander Lt. Col. Laimana, who was suspected of being a government informant, was assassinated on 1 January 1966.[4]\nOn 27 February 1966, Pu Laldenga and some other MNF leaders decided that the armed insurrection would start on 1 March. The instructions were sent to the to launch simultaneous attacks on the posts of the 1st AR and the BSF. In case the attack failed, an alternate plan of concentrating near the Indo-Pak border was also made.\nThe Government authorities did get some indications of the upcoming armed action, but failed to anticipate its intensity. On the night of 27 February, Rokima, the brother of the MNF lieutenant Pu Lalnunmawia was killed in an apparently accidental blast, which was noticed by the AR personnel. All AR posts were alerted to keep a watch on the movements of MNF members.\nArmed action by MNF[edit]\nMizoram was a part of the Assam state in the 1950s\nThe security forces stationed in the Mizo Hills district included the 1st Assam Rifles (1st AR) headquartered at Aizawl, the 5th Border Security Force (5 BSF) and the local police. On the night of 28 February/1 March 1966, the MNF launched a series of simultaneous attacks on the 1st AR garrisons at Aizawl, Lunglei and Champhai and the 5th BSF posts at Chawngte, Demagiri, Hnahlan, Marpara, Tipaimukh, Tuipang, Tuipuibari, Vaphai and Vaseitlang.\nLunglei[edit]\nThe first attack by MNF began at about 10:30 pm IST on 28 February 1966, at the sub-treasury at Lunglei. A group 500\u20131000 strong attacked the camp of the security forces and the AR post.[5] The attack was repulsed, leaving two AR personnel dead and few MNF volunteers were killed and three more AR personnel wounded. The AR camp was surrounded and starved by the MNF Volunteers for three days. The IAF Helicopter at last flew over the camp to supply the prior needs of Assam Rifles. On 5 March, the insurgents kidnapped R.V. Pillai, the Sub-divisional Officer. By 7 March, they had captured the AR post as well as the Border Roads Task Force camp at Lunglei.\nAizawl[edit]\nThe MNF insurgents entered Aizawl on the night of 28 February 1966. The same day, the Mizo district administration came across the copies of the two-page declaration of independence distributed among the MNF leaders. Since the insurgents had cut all the telephone lines, the local authorities could not seek immediate help from Shillong or Silchar. Later, the commanding officer of the Border Roads Organisation managed to send a wireless message to Silchar.[4]\nAt 02:00 IST, on 1 March 1966, the insurgents attacked the telephone exchange at Aizawl. An hour later, around 150 insurgents led by Pu Lalnundawta, attacked the Aizawl District Treasury and looted money, arms and .303 ammunition. Within a few hours, the insurgents took control of all the important centres of the Mizo district, paralysing the civil administration. They also seized all the vehicles in the town. The law and order situation went beyond the control of the local Police and the small units of AR posted in the district.[3] T S Gill, the Deputy Commissioner of the Mizo district, took shelter in the AR headquarters. The insurgents attacked the 1st AR battalion headquarters in Aizawl unsuccessfully. They also attacked the AR post at Chhimluang on the Aizawl-Silchar road, but were repulsed by the Riflemen. To stop any reinforcements from Silchar, they created several roadblocks and damaged the only bridge on the road.\nAround this time, several MNF leaders had gathered in Aizawl on the pretext of a General Assembly. A few of the MNF leaders strongly opposed the violence, and asked Laldenga to withdraw his orders for an armed action. However, it was too late to discontinue the operation, as the rebels had already attacked multiple places including Lunglei, Champhai and Demagiri.\nOn 1 March, Laldenga made a declaration of independence, and exhorted all the Mizos to join the revolt against the \"illegal Indian occupation\" of the Mizo territory.[4]\nOn 2 March, the insurgents ambushed a patrol of the 1st AR, and inflicted heavy casualties on them. After the 1st AR Battalion at Aizawl refused to surrender, the MNF suicide squad launched an attack on them at 9:00 on 4 March. They lost 13 men in a counter-attack by the Assam Rifles soldiers. Two helicopters with reserves, ammunition and water sent by the Government to help the Riflemen could not land due to constant firing by the insurgents. Some of the air drops meant for the Riflemen fell into the hands of MNF members.\nThe same day, the insurgents released all the prisoners from the Aizawl jail, who looted the shops of the non-Mizos (\"Vai\"s), and also burned several huts in the Aizawl bazaar.[4] Due to the AR's refusal to surrender, the victory parade proposed to be held on 2 March was postponed to 10 March.\nOn 5 March, the insurgents led by Pu Hruaia plundered the Public Works Department office in Aizawl, looting items for the \"Mizoram Sawrkar\" (\"Mizoram Government\") Office.[4] On 11 March, the insurgents burned the houses of the senior officials of the Mizo Union.\nAt about 01:30 IST on 1 March 1966, around 150 insurgents armed with lathis surrounded the sub-divisional officer of the Public Works Department at Vairengte and asked him to get out of the district. They also took over the departmental stores and the jeep. Similar incidents were reported from Coinluang and Chawngte.[5] On the same day, the insurgents easily captured the AR post at Champhai, with help from their sympathisers in the security forces.\nAt Kolasib, the insurgents took around 250 civil officials, the policemen, the intelligence personnel and the road builders as captives, and kept them without food and water. The women and children were also taken as captives and kept separately in a small building.[4] None of the civilian officials and government servants were hurt, as MNF expected their support in running the administration of the proposed sovereign state.\nGovernment response[edit]\nAccording to a statement made by the Chief Minister of Assam Bimala Prasad Chaliha, on 1 March, the insurgents who attacked the Aizawl treasury and Lunglei numbered around 10,000. The Indian Home Minister Gulzari Lal Nanda, in the Indian parliament on 3 March, stated the total number of rebels in Aizawl, Lunglei, Vairengte, Chawngte and Chhimluang as 800\u20131300.[5]\nOn 2 March 1966, the Government of Assam invoked the Assam Disturbed Areas Act, 1955 and the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, 1958, proclaiming the entire Mizo district as \"disturbed\". Bimala Prasad Chaliha condemned Laldenga for his \"betrayal\", while the Gulzari Lal Nanda promised \"stern action\" with \"all the force\" at the Government's command.[4] A 24-hour curfew was imposed in Aizawl on 3 March, and reinforcements were sent for the 1st AR by helicopters.\nAirstrikes[edit]\nThe IAF was asked to carry the troops in Mi-4 helicopters into the besieged AR camp, accompanied with fighter escorts, but failed due to heavy and accurate fire by the insurgents. The Toofani fighters of 29 Squadron operating from Kumbhirgram and Hunter fighters of 17 Squadron operating from Jorhat undertook independent missions to escort the troop reinforcements and to suppress the insurgents.[1] Later, when the Eastern Army Commander Lt Gen SHFJ Manekshaw, MC overflew parts of Mizoram in 1968, his helicopter was fired at by the insurgents.[6]\nOn the afternoon of 4 March 1966, the IAF jet fighters strafed the MNF targets in Aizawl using machine guns, allegedly causing few civilian casualties.[4][7] The next day, a more extensive airstrike was carried out for about five hours. According to some Mizos, the planes used incendiary bombs, resulting in fires that destroyed several houses in the Dawrpui and Chhinga Veng areas. According to some other accounts, the houses were destroyed in the fires started by the prisoners released from the Aizawl jail by the insurgents.[4] Apart from Aizawl, the neighbouring villages of Tualbung and Hnahlan were also allegedly bombarded.Most of the civilian population fled Aizawl, and took refuge in the remote villages in the adjacent hills.\nIn the history of independent India, this remains the only instance of the Government of India resorting to air strikes in its own territory.[1][8] Locals claim that Rajesh Pilot and Suresh Kalmadi were among the IAF pilots who dropped the bombs.[9] Pu Zoramthanga, who went on to become the Chief Minister of Mizoram in 1998, once said that the main reason he joined the MNF and became a rebel was the \"relentless bombing of Aizawl in 1966\".[10] The people of Mizoram now observe Zoram Ni (\"Zoram Day\") to commemorate the air raids.[11][12]\nGround operations[edit]\nThe operations were overseen by HQ Eastern Command of the Indian Army, under Lt Gen Sam Manekshaw. The local responsibility for the army operations was given to 101 Communication Zone whose General Officer Commanding (GOC) was Major General Sagat Singh. 311 (Independent) Infantry Brigade Group was located at that point of time in Silchar. An additional formation, 61 Mountain Brigade (under Brig R Z Kabraji) was moved from Agartala to Aizawl. Subsequently, a regular division, HQ 57 Mountain Division was raised at Masimpur, near Silchar which oversaw counter-insurgency operations in Mizoram in the later stages. The leading battalion of 61 Mountain Brigade, the 8th Battalion, Sikh Regiment (8 SIKH) advanced from Silchar into the disturbed area on 3 March. The forces could reach Aizawl only on 6 March, due to the roadblocks caused by the militants.[6][13][14] On 7 March, they relieved the besieged AR garrison at Aizawl. On 8 March, the 2nd Battalion 11 Gorkha Rifles (2/11 GR) moved towards Champhai and the 3rd Battalion Bihar Regiment (3 BIHAR) towards Lunglei. By 15 March, the entire 61 Brigade with its four battalions and supporting arms and services had moved into Mizoram and by the end of the month had regained control of Mizoram.[15]\nWithdrawal of MNF forces[edit]\nThe insurgents had managed to capture all the posts of the 1st Assam Rifles (AR) except the AR headquarters at Aizawl. Their chances of capturing the AR headquarters were low after the IAF airstrikes. When the MNF leaders heard about the likely arrival of the Indian Army in Aizawl on 7 March, they decided to retreat to Lunglei, which was under the MNF control.\nThe security forces threatened to bomb Lunglei, but two Christian clergymen \u2013 H. S. Luaia and Pastor C.L. Hminga \u2013 requested them to avoid it in order to prevent loss of civilian lives. The two also persuaded the MNF not to attack the army.[3] After some resistance, the MNF rebels withdrew from Lunglei on 13 March, taking away some arms, ammunition and vehicles with them. The Indian Army secured Lunglei on 14 March, and Champhai on 15 March. The 5th Battalion, Parachute Regiment (5 PARA), was flown in by helicopters to Lunglei on 14\u201315 March, set out for Demagiri and secured it on 17 March. By the 25th, all the important towns and the posts had been freed from the MNF control.\nBy the end of March 1966, the Indian security forces had captured 467 muzzle loading guns, 332 shotguns, 175 rifles, 57 pistols/revolvers and about 70,000 rounds of ammunition from MNF. However, MNF had also managed to obtain a large amount of ammunition from the captured security forces posts. Its weapon cache consisted of: around 1500 shotguns, 600 rifles (mostly .303 bore), 75 sten-guns, 30 revolvers/pistols, 25 carbines and 20 light machine guns.\nThe MNA headquarters, originally located in Aizawl was moved multiple times during the conflict: first to South Hlimen (on 3 March), then to Reiek (on 18 March) and finally to the Chittagong Hill Tracts in East Pakistan.\nThe Mizo Union leaders blamed the MNF for the loss of civilian life, and condemned the armed insurrection. The MNF accused the Indian Government of \"indiscriminate bombing on civilian population\" during the airstrikes in Aizawl.[16] Two MLAs of the Assam state, Stanley DD Nichols Roy and Hoover H Hynniewta, visited the Mizo district to take a stock of the situation.[17] Later in April, Roy moved a motion in the Assam Legislative Assembly on the Aizawl air attack, calling the use of air force \"excessive\".[18]\nBy the end of 1966, reinforcements were sent to the district by the Government in form of:\ntwo Indian Army battalions\n18th Battalion, Punjab Regiment (18 PUNJAB)\n9th Battalion, Bihar Regiment (9 Bihar)\nthree Assam Rifles battalions (6th, 18th and 19th)\nfour armed police battalions of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF)\nThe MNF insurgents dispersed in smaller units, merged with the local population and continued to carry out armed attacks against the security forces in the district. The villagers suffered from both sides as the insurgents would kill those resisting their entry into the villages while the villages suffered reprisals from the security forces in case ambushes had taken place in their vicinity.[15]\nThe Mizo National Front was outlawed in 1967. The same year, the Counterinsurgency and Jungle Warfare School was set up at Vairengte to train the soldiers in fighting with the rebels in the North-East India.\nAs the insurgents found security and refuge in the large number of tiny hamlets from which they would launch attacks on the patrols of the security forces and later merge into the civilian population, the military need was felt to deny the militants access to the common people. To solve the problem, the Government of India resorted to a \"grouping\" policy in the Mizo district, starting in January 1967. Under the grouping policy, nearly 80% of the rural population was shifted from their villages and resettled along the highways. The old villages were burnt, and the new settlements were kept under the control of the security forces until 1970. The Indian Army got greater freedom of action and succeeded in isolating the insurgents from the people and cutting the insurgents' supply chain. This grouping of villages resulted in a great deal of suffering for the indigenous populace as their farms and houses were burnt and they could not have enough farmland while being interred into these camps. Farming output went down a cliff and people had to face near-famine conditions.[19] This grouping has also been said to be the beginning of social evils in Mizoram. The villagers were forced to move to these camps and agreement papers were often signed at gunpoint. While insurgency continued at lower levels, the space for political negotiations was created and led to Mizoram becoming a Union Territory and the entry of the MNF into mainstream politics.[15] In August 1968, the Government of India offered amnesty to the insurgents, which resulted in the surrender of 1524 MNF members. This was followed by more amnesty offers during 1969\u201370.\nLater, the Mizo Union's negotiations with the Union Government resulted in the Mizo district gaining the status of a Union Territory as \"Mizoram\" on 21 January 1972. MNF's secessionist movement came to an end in 1986, when it signed the Mizo accord with the Government of India. The Government agreed to create a separate state for the Mizos called Mizoram, with Aizawl as its capital. MNF, in return, decided to give up its secessionist demand and the use of violence.\n^ a b c \"Don't bomb the Naxals!: IAF last strafed Indian territory in 1966\". Rediff.com. 5 August 2010.

        "title": "Shader lamps - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "Shader lamps is a computer graphic technique used to change the appearance of physical objects. The still or moving objects are illuminated, using one or more video projectors, by static or animated texture or video stream. The method was invented at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill by Ramesh Raskar, Greg Welch, Kok-lim Low and Deepak Bandyopadhyay in 1999 [1] as a follow on to Spatial Augmented Reality [2] also invented at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1998 by Ramesh Raskar, Greg Welch and Henry Fuchs.\nA 3D graphic rendering software is typically used to compute the deformation caused by the non perpendicular, non-planar or even complex projection surface.\nComplex objects (or aggregation of multiple simple objects) create self shadows that must be compensated by using several projectors.\nThe objects are typically replaced by neutral color ones, the projection giving all its visual properties, thus the name shader lamps.\nThe technique can be used to create a sense of invisibility, by rendering transparency. The object is illuminated not by a replacement of its own visual properties, but by the corresponding visual surface placed behind the object as seen from an arbitrary viewing point.\nPolice departments, licensed private investigation firms and selective U.S. military units were the first to acquire Shader lamp technology. As this level of technological support is unlikely to reach the public market. Its capabilities have endless liabilities, and could lead to nefarious purposes and various criminal acts. One such example took place in the Augusta, GA area from October 2016 through December 2018. A private citizen was initially the subject of a police investigation which proved unfruitful. The case was then handed down to a small group of former military personnel, turned private investigational digital crackers/hackers. Backed by the continued oversight and technical support of local law enforcement, they acquired Shader Lamp technology in order to harass and attempt to mold their target's behavior. Along with an additional objective to test the shader lamp technology in a civilian setting. A program was put in place to illegally obtain total access to the civilian target's mobile phone use, WiFi data transfers and drive accounts' cloud storage.\nThe select group of stalkers observed the degree of photographic evidence which could be collected by a single, unsupported, non-tech savvy individual citizen target. The targeted individual tried to collect as much digital evidence as possible on the Shader Lamp's image projection technology, as well as the gang stalking and harassment taking place, but nearly all of the digital images and videos taken as evidence for later legal action were digitally altered through their constant intrusive hacks into the individual's cloud drive storage. In the end, the Shader Lamp technology was a success for the gang stalkers, but the constant barrage of digitally imposed fa\u00e7ades into the target's devices, and most intrusively, onto the inside walls of his home and the trees and grass outside of his home eventually drove the targeted individual to committing suicide.\nThe preliminary coroner's report states mental illness as the underlying cause for suicide, but after searching through the late target's many SD cards and zip drive files, containing the unaltered evidence, federal investigators concluded electronic harassment, including digitally imposed graphic images via device hacks/cracking, constant barrage of human facades using shader lamps and other holographic laser image projectors.\nLack of updated legislation for this rapidly growing digital age is what allowed these cyber criminal gang stalkers to impose their evil on an innocent citizen. Lack of legislation is what prevented criminal charges from being brought against these anonymous perpetrators, and allowed electronic harassment devices to be the digital murder weapons used to drive the individual to killing himself. These types of technology are not yet available on the mainstream U.S. market, nor is much information available on internet databases. The targeted victim was unlikely aware such image projection technology was possible, much less being used against him to make it appear as if he'd developed a mental illness, like schizophrenia or paranoid delusional disorder. If he had known that an obtrusion of privacy was the cause of his problems, the reality of the last eighteen months of his life may have resulted in a different outcome.[citation needed]\nShaderlamps.com\nMitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, Shader Lamps, Ramesh Raskar, Greg Welch, Kok-lim Low, Deepak Bandyopadhyay, June 2001 (PDF)\nIEEE Computer Society January/February 2007 (Vol. 27, No. 1) pp. 90-96, The Digital Chameleon Principle: Computing Invisibility by Rendering Transparency Frank Nielsen, Sony Computer Science Laboratories\nThis computer graphics\u2013related article is a stub.

        "raw_content": "West Harrow shown within Greater London\n10,373 (2011 Census. Ward)[1]\nHA1, HA2\nWest Harrow is an area in the London Borough of Harrow.\n3 Zoning information\n5 Area amenities\n6 Transport and locale\n6.1 Tube/Train\nAs its name suggests, West Harrow is located on the western side of the London Borough of Harrow, and roughly halfway between the north and south boundaries of the borough. To the south east of West Harrow is Harrow on the Hill, to its north east is Greenhill, to its west is Rayners Lane, to its north is North Harrow, and to its south are Roxeth and South Harrow.\nWest Harrow, considered to be the bohemian part of Harrow, boasts the first and only contemporary artist-led gallery in the borough which was set up in 2010 by the Usurp Art Collective. The space is called the Usurp Art Gallery & Studios and was converted from an old butchers shop. Usurp Art provides professional support to artists, cultural programmes and runs the only public artists studios in the borough. It is a flagship project for Arts Council England.[2][3][4][5] Poet Tim Dooley lives here; the neighbourhood also has strong musical connections: keyboardist and composer Rick Wakeman grew up here and it is currently (2018) home to a number of jazz musicians including pianist Alex Webb (musician),[6] and bass players Jeremy Brown and Miles Danso, part of the significant Harrow jazz community which also includes Courtney Pine and Gary Crosby.[7]\nWest Harrow Park, boasts a cafe, free gym equipment and has a large children's and under-fives play area for local families.\nZoning information[edit]\nWest Harrow is almost exclusively residential, with a few threads of localized commercial zoning around its edges and an occasional small shop dotted within the residential areas.\nPrior to the early 20th century West Harrow was overwhelmingly rural. The construction of the Uxbridge extension to the Metropolitan line in 1904, and specifically the new West Harrow tube station, triggered a steady growth of homes in the area, spreading out from the location of the new station. In his 1973 BBC TV film about London suburbia, Metroland, Sir John Betjeman stands in Vaughan Road and delivers a piece to camera about the development of the area in the 1900s.[8] The remaining open pockets of West Harrow were filled with small council and retirement estates in the second half of the 20th century.\nSeveral of the roads in West Harrow are named after teachers at Harrow School, as described by Betjeman in his film: Drury Road (Joseph Drury); Vaughan Road (Charles Vaughan); Butler Road (Montagu Butler); Bowen Road (Edward Ernest Bowen); Sumner Road (Robert Carey Sumner); and Heath Road (Benjamin Heath).[9]\nMerivale Road (Charles Merivale, one of the pair who started the Boat Race)\nArea amenities[edit]\nWest Harrow Park, The Ridgeway, West Harrow\nSt. Peter's Church (Church of England), Sumner Road, West Harrow\nWest Harrow Station, The Gardens, West Harrow\nTransport and locale[edit]\nTube/Train[edit]\nWest Harrow Station - Metropolitan line\nNorth Harrow Headstone Harrow & Wealdstone\nStation and commercial heart\nNortholt South Harrow Harrow-on-the-Hill\nThe hill & historic high street\nWest Harrow Park\nWest Harrow Station on the Metropolitan line\n^ \"Harrow Ward population 2011\".

        "raw_content": "The Higher Education Faculty of Pennsylvania: Selected Characteristics. Report No. 24.\nLeslie, Larry L.; Creasy, James\nThis study was designed to collect data concerning the characteristics of the higher education faculty of Pennsylvania. A population of 21,228 teaching faculty in 118 colleges and universities in Pennsylvania were surveyed by means of college catalogs, records of the Pennsylvania Human Rights Commission, and a mail questionnaire. The catalogs provided information about source of degrees, and limited data on race were obtained from the Human Rights Commission. Tenure status, age, rank, teaching load, sex, place of birth, highest degree, length of experience, and number of national professional conferences attended were obtained from the questionnaire. Highlights of the study indicated: (1) Almost two-thirds of Pennsylvania faculty had tenure in the academic year 1972-73. (2) A comparable bulging at the higher professorial ranks has not yet occurred in Pennsylvania. (3) The faculty of Pennsylvania institutions of higher education appears to be an aging faculty. Those over 40 years of age now constitute 56.8 percent of the total. (4) The average teaching load for Pennsylvania faculty is about ten hours. (5) Faculty in the Commonwealth are not particularly inbred. Less than 20 percent have returned to their alma maters as teachers. (6) Women compose only 21.1 percent of the faculty in Pennsylvania; and they are less likely than Pennsylvania men to be tenured and to be at the senior academic ranks.

        "raw_content": "Assessment and Decision Making in Delta. Technical Report No. 591.\nStephens, Diane; And Others\nThis report presents findings from Delta, one of four school districts examined in a series of case studies that investigated the complex relationship between reading assessment and instruction. The research was situated in the context of school decision making. Teachers, principals, parents, students, and central office staff were interviewed to determine how decisions were made in the district and how that decision-making process influenced assessment and instruction. In addition, teachers were observed, and discussions were conducted with them about the observations. A constant comparative method was used to identify patterns in the data. In Delta, assessment-as-test had a major impact on curriculum and instruction. The superintendent was concerned about the \"low\" test scores of the students in his district and wanted to raise those scores. A number of decisions had been made to accomplish this (e.g., standards had been set for passing from one grade to another; teachers were asked to modify their teaching so that scores on particular test items would improve). There was a considerable amount of tension in this district over the way these \"top down\" decisions had been made. There were also, however, a number of other decision-making structures operating: district-wide committees, for example, that were charged with writing curriculum. Delta seemed to be a district in transition in which both \"old\" ways (top-down decision making, assessment-as-test driving instruction) and new ways (collaboration between teachers and administration, teacher decision making) sometimes conflict with each other. (One table and two figures of data are included; a letter to prospective schools describing the research project, and a list of interview and observation codes are attached.)

This Elegant Ruin\u2026and other stories\nPosted on September 2, 2014 August 29, 2014 by Erin Bartels\nI\u2019m so thrilled to tell you that This Elegant Ruin\u2026and other stories is now available at Amazon! Click here to order.\nFor the uninitiated, in 2013 I challenged myself to write one short story each month. The twelve stories that make up this collection are the result of that challenge. I\u2019m so thrilled to see them in book form with the incredibly beautiful cover my friend and colleague Heather created.\nNow that the kids are back in school, do something for you! Short stories make great reading material for when you just want a little down time (or when you are waiting in the pick-up lanes after school). I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them!\nHere\u2019s the back cover copy to give you a bit of the flavor of the writing:\nLove and hate. Dreams and nightmares. Luck and misfortune.\nIn twelve engaging stories, the joys and sorrows of life glow against such varied backdrops as a snowy wood, a quaint country inn, a crumbling metropolis, the shore of Lake Superior, and a lonely country highway. A man in the twilight of his career falls in love with a young woman at the dawn of hers. A girl at the end of her rope finds an unexpected friend in an eccentric stranger. A young man haunted by memories finally gets a chance to forget his troubles. An artist takes stock of his life\u2019s work and discovers an unwelcome truth.\nWith prose that evokes wonder and fear, regret and relief, Erin Bartels draws meaning from the small moments of life, challenging us to be still, to notice, to dream\u2014and to hope.\nPosted in Books in General, Publishing NewsTagged book, book launch, collection, new release, short stories4 Comments\nFirst Short Story Collection: Cover Art Reveal!\nOver a year ago, I secured the services of Heather Brewer, a talented graphic designer I\u2019m lucky to call a colleague and friend, to design a book cover for me. At the time, I thought it would be a novel. At some point I realized that what I really wanted her to design was the cover for my collected short stories.\nIf you\u2019ve been reading this blog for a year or more, you probably know that in 2013 I challenged myself to write one short story each month. During that year, I made each story available for Kindle users. Now I\u2019m gathering those stories together, adding more material, and preparing to publish the collection as both a printed book and an ebook.\nAnd this, I\u2019m ecstatic to say, is the cover\u2026\nWhen I saw it, I literally said in a loud and astonished voice (to no one in particular), \u201cOh my GOSH!\u201d\nIt\u2019s breathtaking. And it\u2019s more than just a pretty picture. Not only is it eye-catching, it evokes the kind of emotion that I hope the stories evoke in the reader\u2013a little mystery, a little ache in the soul, an appreciation of beauty alongside an acknowledgement of the broken things. And, importantly, it\u2019s non-gendered. In this collection, there are just as many male protagonists as female, and the themes are more universal than gender-specific, so having a cover that would appeal to both men and women was important to me. What do you think? Have we succeeded?\nI\u2019m currently editing the collection and getting the interior ready to go. I don\u2019t have a firm release date just yet, but my hope is that it will hit the \u201cshelves\u201d by late summer or early fall. I\u2019ll keep you posted!\nPosted in Books in General, Publishing News, WritingTagged collection, cover art, cover reveal, graphic design, short stories, short story10 Comments",

        "raw_content": "Home Sample Essays Business essay Business Cycles C1\nOil is one of the most vital commodity in the current world, thus its price can never be stable. Unlike other agricultural and industrial products, whose supply can be adjusted to cater for increased demand, the scenario seems different when it comes to the oil production (Moors, 2011). Oil is a scarce resource and requires colossal sum of money to extract it. The lack of a perfect substitute for the commodity together with the time it takes to move it from the oilfield to the final consumer, invariably makes its supply and demand inelastic (Moors, 2011). The volatility of oil prices has increased basically, due the nature of the market, when the market was disintegrated, the individual producer maximizes its output as much as the reservoir to cover for the immense cost of production and initial capital outlay (Hopkins, 2011). Generally, the operating costs are usually lower than the capital costs, so that producers will continue to produce even when the streams of revenue are surpassed by the total cost. There with the market being competitive the prices in the oil industry will continue to fall to the extent that some producers are eliminated from the industry (Moors, 2011). This will consequently lead to the shortage which then pulls the prices upwards following the law of demand and supply.\nHow Changes in Supply and Demand Affect Oil Prices\nIt is apparent that demand and supply remain to be the most influential aspects of the behavior of oil in the market (Moors, 2011). According to Hopkins (2011), the increase in consumption of oil in the developing countries as well as the steady high demand, especially in the United States indicates that the demand will certainly not ease in the near future. As evident from the case, the International agency points out that the increase in oil demand is due to the rapid expansion in a number of countries especially China (Richard and Jason, 2005). It is clear that in 2003, the second largest consumer of the petroleum products after United States was China. Energy Information Administration denotes that China accounts for around 40 % of the total demand growth in the world for the past four years (Richard and Jason, 2005). In the next twenty years, it is estimated that the demand of oil in China will be doubled. In addition, India is also experiencing the increased oil demand with a steady growth of around 75 per cent in 15 years (Richard and Json, 2005).\nOn the other hand, the supply of oil has been greatly affected by the political unrest within the countries preventing a full production of oil (Richard and Jason, 2005). Examples of such countries include Venezuela and Iraq. In Iraq, for instance, the production of oil has been uncertain since the beginning of Iraq\u2019s second war. Apparently, the most notable reasons are the sabotage of facilities as well as continued violence (Richard and Jason, 2005). According to the United States oil experts, some of the oil reserves in Iraq are so damaged that the recovery rates are lower than normal. In Venezuela the full capacity production was hindered by the December 2002 nationwide strike. It is reported that the strike led to a remarkable reduction of the gross domestic product and production of oil in the country (Richard and Jason, 2005).\nThe Two Largest Consumers of Petroleum Products\nAccording to the case, the two largest consumers of petroleum products are the United States, which comes at the first place and China, which comes second (Richard and Jason, 2005). Energy Information Administration denotes that China accounts for around 40 % of the total demand growth in the world for the past four years. In addition, it consumes about 5.6 million barrels of oil daily. Besides, Energy Information Administration also predicts a more than double increase in demand over the next twenty years (Richard and Jason, 2005).\nWhat Happens To the Price and Quantity of Oil When\nThe Price of SUVs Falls\nPrices are always responsible for the shifts in the demand as well a supply curves (Hopkins, 2011). When the price of SUVs falls, it is evident that the demand of the SUVs will increase. Having an increase in the demand of SUVs, it will mean that the demand of oil will also increase. Studies indicate that the increased demand results to the increased prices (Hopkins, 2011). Therefore, it is evident that with the reduced prices of the SUVs, the oil prices will definitely go up, due to the increased demand for the commodity. On the other hand, the falling prices of the SUVs will have a significant impact on the quantity of oil supplied (Hopkins, 2011). More people will be noted to purchase the SUVs due to the reduced prices. The more purchhased vehicles will mean an increase in the demand of the oil. As a result, the barrels of oil sold per day will be higher than normal meaning that there will be an increase in the supply of oil. This therefore means that when the price of the SUVs falls, the quantity of the oil supplied will increase.\nThe Government Approves More Drilling In Alaska\nIn the event that the government approve more drilling in Alaska, it will mean that more oil is produced; hence the supply of oil will increase. An increase in supply means that the prices will go down. Therefore increased oil supply will result to a reduction in the prices of oil. A reduction in prices will lead to increased demand of the commodity. It is apparent that, when the prices of oil reduce, its demand will certainly be high. This therefore means that the quantities supplied will be higher than normal. Considering a product like gasoline, price control is the best policy, so that people pay less than the current price at the pump. This will ensure that such occurrences as those that took place during the 1973 oil embargo will reduce the industrial powers over the vital commodity hence oppressing the citizens. Evidently, the 1973 embargo caused a negative effect on the United States economy leading to the immediate demands to address the situation (EIA, 2000).\nThese effects include the rise of the retail price of gasoline from an average of about 38.5 cents to 55.1 cents from May 1973 to June 1974 (EIA, 2000). As a result, the citizens were requested by the state government not to have their Christmas lights on with Oregon banning Christmas and commercial banning as well (EIA, 2000). As a result of this, the politicians called for nationwide rationing program for the gas. Richard Nixon, who was the U.S. president at that time, urged the vendors not to sell gas on weekends. This led to large queues at the gas stations during the weekdays (EIA, 2000). Moreover, it resulted to such incidents as violence, due to the nationwide two-day strike by truck drivers in December 2003 as they opposed to the supplies Simon had rationed for their industry (EIA, 2000).\nIn conclusion, the prices of gasoline should be reduced to encourage the search of new reserve (EIA, 2000). This will ensure that the supply of the commodity is steady and such incidences as those of the 1973 oil crisis are not recurrent.\nFree Essay Sample \u00abBusiness Cycles C1\u00bb\nClothing Boutique in Taneytown\nSocial and Governmental Environmental of Business",

        "raw_content": "Understanding Global Conflict and Cooperation\nHome Sample Essays History essay Understanding Global Conflict and Cooperation\nCollective responsibility is a concept that each nation\u2019s security depends upon all other nations and that peace is universal and indivisible. Wilson\u2019s vision of \u201cnew world order\u201d shaped the U.S. foreign policy as he tried to abandon earlier policy of neutrality in favor of collective policy. At the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, Wilson drafted the convent for the postwar league and ensured that it conformed to his vision of the world order. Back at home, republican senators were opposed to their president\u2019s ideas that the U.S. could control the league despite the fact that they had supported the 1917 war in Germany. Wilson became an earnest and a big advocate of the League of Nations convent in his late days of presidency. After WWI, republicans largely shunned the league in Geneva and rejected forceful changes in political and territorial independence of nations. WWI was seen as an accidental war WWII was seen as an aggression war. The Versailles Treaty did not solve Germany\u2019s problems. But in WWII, President Roosevelt revived Wilson\u2019s idea and while it attempted neutrality against aggression by Germany, Italy and Japan against their neighbors. In 1938 when the Munich agreement failed to procure peace, the U.S. decided that it cannot protect itself security alone and with alliance with other partners, the UN was formed. The league achieved much between 1924 and 1930 and aggessive countries like Germany promised not to violate its borders with France and Belgium of course to which Germany did not honor. This aggression is what gave forth to the WWII.\nSummary of the New York Times Woodrow Wilson\nAs the U.S. president, Wilson loved legislative leadership. His re-election was based on foreign policy. After his elections in 1912, he did not want to deal with foreign problems but as fate could have it, he was to be involved in the violent Mexico revolution. At first he tried to intervene but later settled on a policy of leaving the country work out its own problems. This served him a good start in WWI in 1914, at the same time his first wife died. In 1915, a German submarine sank a ship which had more than 100 Americans on board and this caused a diplomatic tussle between the two countries. When Germany in 1917 unleashed their submarines against merchant shipping, he was forced to wage war. Wilson seemed to depart from his earlier thinking of conducting international relations and preventing war through a league of nations. In spite of his peace efforts, he waged a full war for one and half years. He exercised direct control in foreign affairs and seized command of allied war aims with his fourteen point address in 1918. In the address, he laid a picture of healing and the non-punitive program and the address helped in shortening the war which ended in November 11, 1918. He later weent to Paris for a peace conference towards the end of 1918 but later became ill in 1919 while in stressful negotiations with British, Italy and French leaders.\nComparing the two articles\nThe main idea the two articles are addressing is Wilson\u2019s foreign policy and stance on war. The first article seems to suggest that Wilson loved collective policy as opposed to neutrality. But this is somehow contradicted by the second article that talks about Wilson leaving Mexico to chart its own course rather than meddling in its internal wars. Both the above summaries suggest though that Wilson had favorable view of League of Nations despite the fact that it failed to stop aggression in the 1930s. Wilson went to Paris for two months to assist negotiations on the Versailles Treat and the league covenant. Wilson also did recognize the seed war and it was the league\u2019s impotence that caused WWII and the league lacked mechanisms to insure collective responsibility on security. The other issue is what caused WWII. The first article suggests that WWII was caused by failure of collective security to address Germany\u2019s aggressiveness, this is despite the fact that the second article shows that Wilson spent one and half months away from home trying to court peace in with some Europe countries after his fourteen address shortened the 1918 war with Germany.\nFree Essay Sample \u00abUnderstanding Global Conflict and Cooperation\u00bb\nImmigration Policy in the United States\nDiscovering One?s Heritage\nThe Use of the Bible, the Koran and Other Works\nStalin's Halt",

        "raw_content": "Eesti Laul 2017: my top 10\nTonight Estonia will choose their representative for the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 in Kyiv. Ten contestants will compete in the national final Eesti Laul. Here\u2019s my top 10.\nDaniel Levi with All I Need\nI don\u2019t get this song. He looks a bit like J\u00fcri, with this suit, it gives a classic feeling. But then he sings this song, modern with all these lights in the performance. I didn\u2019t mind it at the beginning but the fact that the lights keep going the entire song, almost gives me a headache. It\u2019s too much. And me hating the performance, makes the song even worse. 2/10\nLenna Kuurmaa with Slingshot\nFirst of all, the barefoot thing has to stop. I never liked it or got it and I\u2019m starting to hate it now. The song ordinary, nothing special for me there. I do like that she does something on stage, she doesn\u2019t just stand there. But overall it\u2019s not great. 4/10\nAriadne with Feel Me Now\nDon\u2019t really like this song. It\u2019s not a ballad but it still manages to get boring. I mean, she just stands there and there\u2019s nothing else to watch on stage. This is not a winner. 4/10\nLiis Lemsalu with Keep Running\nI don\u2019t like her girly voice, that really bothers me. And the song itself is okay but it doesn\u2019t give me the right feeling. I don\u2019t want to keep listening to it, I lose my interest and that\u2019s not a good thing. 4/10\nIvo Linna with Suur loterii\nI really like the Estonian language to begin with. I appreciate that he sings in his native language. The song is nice but rather small. It\u2019s not really for Eurovision, it would disappear on the big stage, I think. 4/10\nRasmus R\u00e4ndvee with This Love\nI really like him, the voice and the stage presence. I also like his performance, there\u2019s something going on there. I would like to see him at Eurovision, but with a different song. It\u2019s alright but I think he can bring an amazing song that would win the competition. And I don\u2019t get that feeling with this song. But he has amazing potential. 5/10\nKoit Toome & Laura with Verona\nI get a good feeling from this song. You can see that they are professionals and that they are good singers. There are just some things missing to make the song perfect. I don\u2019t like the backing vocals. And it\u2019s like they are both singing a song, but just not together. There has to be more interaction between the two of them. It\u2019s a good song but it still needs some work. 5/10\nKerli with Spirit Animal\nThis song seems to be really popular and I can see why. It does stand out. But it just brings me back to the beginning of the 2000\u2019s where artists weren\u2019t able to sing English. I mean, at first I didn\u2019t understand a word she was singing. I\u2019m not a fan of the song or her voice but I must admit that the performance is good. This is something you remember at the end of the evening. I wouldn\u2019t mind if Estonia sends this song, but I think there is a better choice. 5/10\nElina Born with In Or Out\nI was really excited to watch her on Eurovision again. I love her voice and she\u2019s just an amazing artist. However, this song isn\u2019t really her style I guess. I prefer a song with class for her, I think that really suits her. It\u2019s not a winner this year. 6/10\nWhogaux & Karl-Kristjan featuring Maian with Have You Now\nThis is a song I like. The vocals are really good, I was impressed. And the song has a nice beat. I just don\u2019t get the dancers and their outfit. I mean, it\u2019s like their from the 50\u2019s or something. I don\u2019t mind that but it just doesn\u2019t fit the song. They would have to make a lot of changes but I can see massive potential here. It\u2019s actually a great song and could do really well at Eurovision. My winner. 8/10",

        "raw_content": "New Rule Will Result in More Taxable Home Sales\nAnother change due to the federal housing bill passed 6/30/08\nThe federal housing bill just passed contains mostly provisions designed to help taxpayers. Here's one which does the opposite.\nCurrently, taxpayers are allowed to exclude up to $250,000 ($500,000 on a joint return) of gain from the sale of their principal residence. Generally, you must own and occupy the residence for at least two of the five years preceding the date of sale. A reduced exclusion is permitted for taxpayers who meet certain unforeseen circumstances.\nUnder the new law, taxpayers will not be allowed to exclude any gain attributable to a \"nonqualified use.\" A period of nonqualified use is any period after January 1, 2009 during which the property is not used as the principal residence of the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse, or former spouse.\nThis rule will affect taxpayers who sell a principal residence which was previously a vacation home or rental property, for example. If there is a gain on the sale, they will owe some amount of tax, even if they meet the two-out-of-five years ownership and use tests. The amount of gain taxed will be based on a percentage arrived at by dividing the nonqualified use time by the total period of property ownership. (Note that for rental properties, tax will also be owed on the amount of allowable depreciation. This is prior tax law and remains unchanged.)\nSince the definition of a period of nonqualified use doesn't include any period before January 1, 2009, a taxpayer can avoid this new rule if he moves into another residence he owns and makes it his principal residence before January 1, 2009.",

Area X has been cut off from the rest of the continent for decades. Nature has reclaimed the last vestiges of human civilization. The first expedition returned with reports of a pristine, Edenic landscape; the second expedition ended in mass suicide; the third expedition...\nThe film of Annihilation will be released February 23rd.\nposted by CheeseLouise (18 comments total) 4 users marked this as a favorite\nHaving just finished the book and watched the movie trailer for the first time, it looks like they've made a lot of changes for the film version. The book was delightfully unsettling. For the most part it was much more low-key than the movie seems like it's going to be. The Biologist in my mind doesn't match up with Portman's giggling, baby talking wife character in the trailer. I'm looking forward to getting into Authority soon, but I'll probably skip the movie.\nposted by CheeseLouise at 10:47 AM on February 7, 2018 [1 favorite]\nI'm a big VanderMeer fan and loved Annihilation. Warning to those reading the whole trilogy: each book is very different from the one before, so don't go into Authority expecting Annihilation II (I think many people did and were disappointed).\nIt didn't feel to me like a book that could easily be made into a movie, so I'm curious to see what they do with it.\nposted by dfan at 12:05 PM on February 7, 2018 [2 favorites]\nThis comment is more of a take on the overall trilogy but I felt like VanderMeer is a lot better at really just gorgeous writing than making any kind of sense really. These were the only books I\u2019ve read by him though so maybe his others are different?\nposted by LizBoBiz at 1:48 PM on February 7, 2018 [6 favorites]\nOh and this is the first I\u2019ve heard of the movie but I\u2019m definitely looking forward to seeing it.\nposted by LizBoBiz at 1:49 PM on February 7, 2018\nI'm interested in the movie because the book had such a weird feel to it, so much of it is tone and feeling instead of things actually happening. The whole thing was much more like a half-remembered dream than anything else to me. It seemed semi-unfilmable.\nposted by biscotti at 1:52 PM on February 7, 2018 [3 favorites]\nThese were the only books I\u2019ve read by him though so maybe his others are different?\nThe plotting in Shriek and especially Finch is much more conventional. The Southern Reach literally started as a fever dream (which is where VanderMeer claims he got The Words), so I think it reflects that. My take is that it's a deliberate style choice, kind of a throwback to the experimentation he was doing in City of Saints and Madmen, especially in Acceptance.\nYes and no, is what I'm saying, which is of course an extremely helpful answer. :)\nI need to read the next two-I read the first for my sci fi book club, but haven\u2019t gone on. I liked it? I think? I am unsure-it was well written but made me deeply uncomfortable. I\u2019m fact, one of the big points of discussion was \u201cis this sci fi or horror\u201d\nposted by purenitrous at 4:08 PM on February 7, 2018\nI've read Borne and it doesn't make all that much sense, either, but in a similar way to the Southern Reach Trilogy, where it doesn't matter because the plot isn't really the point.\nAnnihilation blew me away with its completely unique brand of unsettling horror, and I'm one of the few, it seems, who loved that the second one didn't even attempt to capture that same feel. He quite clearly did that on purpose and I totally bought into it. I love you, Jeff Vandermeer.\nposted by something something at 6:25 PM on February 7, 2018 [3 favorites]\nI wouldn't really describe City of Saints and Madmen as more experimental than Shriek. It's just not a novel; it's a collection of independently written short stories and it has tonal shifts that go with that.\nposted by vibratory manner of working at 7:04 PM on February 7, 2018 [1 favorite]\nThis comment is more of a take on the overall trilogy but I felt like VanderMeer is a lot better at really just gorgeous writing than making any kind of sense really.\nGotta be honest, this is a good chunk of why I so enjoyed Annihilation. Makes it feel more of a piece with plotless non-fiction nature or landscape writing. Thinking of Pilgrim at Tinker's Creek or The Peregrine, even if it doesn't reach those heights. The section about the pool in her childhood and other unloved or otherwise unnoticed semi-natural spaces was beautiful. Making the natural world seem utterly unfamiliar and alien without obscuring the beauty.\nIn addition to the dream source that tobascodagama mentions, Vandermeer apparently wrote all three books in the space of a year. It led to something like a nervous breakdown afterwords but it feels like that could account for the feverishness to an extent.\nposted by ocular shenanigans at 1:31 AM on February 8, 2018 [3 favorites]\nA loved Annihilation. I enjoyed Authority. I put Acceptance down within like ten pages. I just couldn't do it. Not sure why.\nI will definitely see the movie, but can't imagine that it will be as effective as the book.\nposted by Literaryhero at 4:41 AM on February 8, 2018\nyeah I absolutely loved annihilation in large part, I would guess, because I came into it not at all expecting it to make a ton of sense or tie up all loose ends\nmy take is that it's really above all a wonderful meditation on its POV character's hang-ups and obsessions; horror as character study. this works best in this book than others in the trilogy, I think, because of the limited perspective but also because so many of the themes and motifs of the Southern Reach world (organic growth/decay, falling inwards into a loss of coherent self, rot under a controlled/apparently perfect surface) align really well with the biologist as a character\nit's also full of absolutely stunning and horrific set pieces (just to highlight one, the moment when you learn the significance of \"annihilation\" shook me hard) and gorgeous, lyrical, aggressively weird prose.\nposted by Kybard at 8:46 AM on February 8, 2018 [6 favorites]\nI read this book last year in the midst of a YA fantasy binge so that alone made reading this feel very surreal (I kept waiting for a chosen one or wizard love story plot to be thrown in).\nI absolutely loved it. Thought it was stunning visually, the creeping horror was delightful and uncomfortable and the unanswered questions only made it more satisfying.\nI found out later it was going to be a movie and couldn\u2019t really see how they would successfully grasp the core feeling of the book unless the movie was directed by Terrence Malick from two decade ago maybe.\nDefinetly not a book for everyone, and I can easily see how the prose would turn some readers off but it worked perfectly for me.\nposted by liquorice at 4:14 AM on February 9, 2018 [1 favorite]\nIt's been a while since I read this so I went back to my goodreads review to remind myself:\n\"...VanDermeer creates a very vivid world, but one that is viewed through a very strange lens, and immediately makes the reader question the reliability of the narrator.\nI found the lack of scientific rigor from the biologist a bit off-putting. I just never felt that she spoke or acted like a field scientist (who packs a microscope to travel?). and I found the author's sense of scale to be too far off for me to suspend disbelief, e.g. when he describes descending the 'tower/tunnel' for hours -- going downhill for hours carries you miles and there are few places on earth that are truly miles deep...and then it takes twice as long to ascend.\nThe book is an acid-trip of wildly alien creatures and landscape, and bizarro behavior that reminded me of 70's sci-fi.\nI enjoyed it, but maybe not enough to read further.\"\nI never did read the sequels.

        "raw_content": "aka The Vampires\nDirected by Federico Curiel\nFeaturing John Carradine, Mil Mascaras, Maria Duval\nWhat it is: Mexican masked wrestler movie\nVampires are on the loose, and it\u2019s up to Mil Mascaras to defeat them.\nA name horror actor in a Mexican wrestler movie? The idea boggles the mind somewhat, but now that I know one exists, I\u2019m not surprised the actor in question is John Carradine. He appears to be having the time of his life as well; his performance is gleefully over the top, so much so that you\u2019ll wonder if his aged vampire character is caged up throughout most of the movie because he\u2019s suffering from senility. The aptly named Mil Mascaras dons quite a few different masks during the length of the movie, though he eventually settles on a red one during the last half of the movie; my favorite mask has a spiral on it that I\u2019m sure would have made his opponent in the ring dizzy. The female vampires in this movie are a hoot; not only do they flap their arms about even when they aren\u2019t bats, but they\u2019re the world\u2019s worst drivers (they wreck two cars during the course of the movie). I just wish it was all subtitled in English; I have no idea what\u2019s going on most of the time, though it is entertaining. It is rather jarring, though, to hear the voice they used to dub Carradine.\naka The Challenge of the Giant, La sfida dei giganti\nDirected by Maurizio Lucidi\nFeaturing Reg Park, Gia Sandri, Giovanni Cianfriglia\nWhen his son\u2019s soul is held in bondage after a lion attack, Hercules must go into the underworld and rescue him. Meanwhile, Anteaus, the son of an Earth Goddess, impersonates Hercules and becomes a tyrannical dictator over the kingdom of Syracuse.\nYou know, given the number of sword and sandal movies that emerged from Italy in the early sixties, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if a lot of them borrowed footage from earlier movies to pad out the proceedings. If they did so, however, they did so with restraint. That\u2019s not the case here. My first hint was a sense of deja vu during a visit to a soothsayer. However, once Hercules does battle with an old man who turns into a lizard creature, I knew that this movie was pillaging footage from HERCULES AND THE CAPTIVE WOMEN, and shortly after that, it started pillaging from HERCULES IN THE HAUNTED WORLD as well. At any rate, that explains why this one is so bizarrely structured. What original footage exists seems to involve the home life of Hercules and the machinations of Antaeus, and the complicity of a misguided (as in opposition to evil) queen who agrees to his impersonation as a ruse to get rid of unwanted suitors. Though the final scene of the fight between Hercules and Antaeus is new footage, it\u2019s not really all that novel, as I remember the character appearing in HERCULES UNCHAINED, which also used the gimmick that Antaeus could not be defeated while his feet were on the ground. At any rate, this is an unnecessary movie, as its footage is taken from much better sword and sandal movies.\nFeaturing Richard Widmark, Christopher Lee, Honor Blackmon\nCountry: UK / West Germany\nWhat it is: Devil worship story\nAn occult writer takes over the care of the daughter of a repentant Satanist in the hopes that the information he learns will make for a great book. Unfortunately, he finds himself in over his head when the Satanists turn out to be very serious and very dangerous, and he must come up to speed very quickly if he hopes to save her life\u2026 and the world.\nThis was Hammer\u2019s swan song, and based on its rating on IMDB, I\u2019m guessing it isn\u2019t a particular favorite. Nevertheless, for the most part I like it. The story is confusing for the first half of the movie, but it does come together at about the halfway point. Both Christopher Lee and Richard Widmark give excellent performances, though it takes some getting used to Widmark\u2019s distinctly American accent in this context. Oddly enough, it doesn\u2019t feel like a Hammer film, though it is interesting to speculate what the studio\u2019s product would have been like if this had not been their last production. It\u2019s biggest problem is a very weak ending, which apparently was not the original one in the script; the original ending was shot, but none of the footage survives. I find it rather hard to believe that Olivia Newton-John was also in consideration for the role played by Nastassja Kinski here. All in all, I found the movie quite interesting, and sometimes quite grotesque.\nDirected by Samuel Gallu\nFeaturing Christopher Lee, Julian Glover, Lelia Goldoni\nWhat it is: Horror / Mystery\nA series of vampire-style murders is plaguing Paris. The murders are somehow connected with a Grand Guignol-style theatre known as the Theatre of Death.\nI watched the beginning of this movie many years ago when it popped up on late night TV, but lost interest very quickly. It was interesting to compare my memories of that attempted viewing with my observations on this viewing. Back then, I thought the movie looked cheap and chintzy, but I\u2019m willing to bet that was more due to a poor print; this one looks very nice indeed, and I like the use in color particularly. The movie has several interesting moments, some of which are creatively photographed; there\u2019s no doubt that some skill went into the direction, editing and cinematography here, and the acting is quite solid. The story also has some interesting twists and revelations. Yet, for some reason, the movie is mostly dull; it never really builds up much story momentum, and the events seem distant and uninvolving. As a result, my interest remained muted during the viewing. I wish I could pinpoint exactly where and how the movie loses my interest, but I didn\u2019t sense one iota of real suspense during my viewing. It\u2019s a pity; this one could have been much better.\nFeaturing Roddy McDowall, Don Murray, Ricardo Montalban\nWhat it is: Fourth in the PLANET OF THE APES movie series\nAfter having been raised secretly by a circus owner, the son of Cornelius and Zira is appalled to discover that during his life at the circus, apes have been enslaved by humans and forced to perform menial tasks. However, he becomes a fugitive when he is heard to speak in reaction to abuse given to a fellow ape, and when his owner dies trying to protect him, he vows to lead his ape brothers in revolution against their tyrannic masters.\nWhen PLANET OF THE APES spawned a whole series of movies, this one seemed inevitable; eventually, a movie would have to made about the ape revolution, and here it is. It\u2019s really a tribute to Roddy McDowall\u2019s acting abilities, and once again he delivers despite having to emote through elaborate make-up. I\u2019m less impressed with the story as a whole; it\u2019s a little too one-dimensional and repetitive, and the ending features way too many speeches. It\u2019s also a little short of humor, though it does have a few stray moments, especially when Caesar starts his revolution by having the apes start performing certain small but amusing acts of rebellion. In the end, the movie ends up being a little too ordinary. Granted, from the sound of it, the movie was compromised for its initial release; its original ending was considered too dark, and the final speech was amended to be less so. This is a shame; they could have come up with a better fifth movie if the ending of this one hadn\u2019t been compromised.\naka Brides of the Beast\nDirected by Gerardo de Leon and Eddie Romero\nFeaturing Kent Taylor, Beverly Powers, John Ashley\nCountry: Philippines / USA\nWhat it is: Filipino-style horror\nA scientist, his wife and a Peace Corps volunteer arrive at an island to do research and to help the natives. However, they soon discover that something is amiss; the plant and animal life undergoes strange mutations, and the natives have taken to sacrificing their maidens to a hideous monster who ravishes them and tears them to pieces.\nWith this I finish covering what could be loosely called the \u201cBlood Island\u201d trilogy of horror movies from the Philippines. Some people have grouped TERROR IS A MAN and BRAIN OF BLOOD into this group, though the inclusion of the former movie is a bit of a stretch, and the latter movie simply doesn\u2019t belong in any way, shape or form to the series. Matter of fact, it isn\u2019t even strictly a trilogy to begin with; the only two movies that have a plot relation are MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND and BEAST OF BLOOD. This movie at least shares certain crucial similarities in that it also features direction by Eddie Romero and acting by John Ashley.\nI fully expected merely a lurid piece of exploitation horror like the other two movies of the trilogy, and for a while that\u2019s what it seemed like, with its liberal doses of sex and gore. Then a certain key moment in the movie made me start pondering at a possible deeper meaning to the movie. That moment occurs when a young native couple is interrupted in their frolicking by the sight of a native child being attacked by a killer tree. The tribe rescues the child, and then proceed to undertake the ceremony leading to another set of sacrifices. The fact that the attack of the tree and the advent of the sacrifices were related, combined with the fact that the creatures and plants that mutate eventually return to their previous state, and that these mutations occur in sync with each other, led me not only to figuring out the nature of the monster but also that the whole movie can be seen as a metaphor for aberrant sexuality. When the monster manifests itself, nature itself takes on an unhealthy phallic atmosphere, and the mutations only retreat after the monster has raped and dismembered the sacrifice victims. As a result, the sex in the movie isn\u2019t merely exploitative; it is inherent in the story. Because of this, I find it interesting that the natives can only have their mating dance ritual at the end of the movie after the monster has been finally destroyed; it is a metaphorical return to healthy sexuality, and, as such, is actual essential to the picture rather than a mere attempt to add some running time or protract the ending. The special effects are pretty problematic (the butterfly is pretty fake looking, and they should have avoided any close-ups of the monster), and some of the acting is weak (Beverly Powers is memorable for something other than her performance), but the presence of the very strong subtext gives the movie far more depth than I expected. This is easily the most interesting of the \u201cBlood Island\u201d trilogy.",

I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s the long break that made it hard or if my classes are just challenging. I was booked twice this week to model for an Illustration class. Holding those 10 minute poses really worked my legs, but I thought it was cool to see these fashion designers in the making.\nBefore I signed with Passport Models in San Francisco, I decided to work on gaining representation in New York. The city is a fashion capital and it is a key market for me. While I was in undergraduate at the University of Cincinnati, I went to New York to sign with an agency during Fashion Week. I ended up signing with a small boutique agency and I walked in three shows during my short stay. It was the best experience in my life! After the small agency closed down and I began to focus more on finishing my degree, I started to forget about modeling and move on with my career in Communications.\nBut today is a whole new day! I\u2019m happy to say that I officially signed with The Mattison Agency in NYC. Signing with this agency means a lot to me. Although, I will be missing out on this seasons shows, my booker (from The Mattison Agency) and I are planning accordingly for next season\u2019s shows. I am also going to be submitted for editorial opportunities for Essence magazine. Being featured in this magazine has been one of my goals since I was a little girl.\nOne more thing \u2013 I finally got my compcards from Passport Models.

        "raw_content": "Tiptoeing past Armageddon: U.S. and Iranian forces' dangerous battlefield dance\nSean D. Naylor\nNational Security Correspondent\nPhoto illustration: Yahoo News; photos: Sgt. Rick Hurtado/U.S. Marine Corps, Hadi Mizban/AP, AP(2).\nWASHINGTON \u2014 On Feb. 1, 2017, exactly 12 days after President Trump\u2019s inauguration, then-national security adviser Mike Flynn strode to the White House lectern to deliver a 101-second statement that excoriated Iran for its \u201cdestabilizing behavior across the entire Middle East.\u201d Criticizing the administration of President Barack Obama for failing \u201cto respond adequately to Tehran\u2019s malign actions,\u201d Flynn was blunt. \u201cAs of today,\u201d he said, \u201cwe are officially putting Iran on notice.\u201d\nAlmost 16 months later, on May 21, Trump\u2019s new secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, struck an even harsher tone. \u201cWe will track down Iranian operatives and their Hezbollah proxies operating around the world and we will crush them,\u201d he said. \u201cIran will never again have carte blanche to dominate the Middle East.\u201d\nIn the war of words, Iran responded in kind. \u201cAmerica is the No. 1 enemy of our nation,\u201d Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei said in November. \u201cAny retreat by Iran will make America more blatant and impudent,\u201d he said. \u201cResistance is the only option.\u201d\nBut on the ground in Iraq, Syria and, to a lesser extent, Yemen, where thousands of U.S. soldiers are juxtaposed with those of Iran and its proxies, neither side has matched its bellicose rhetoric with any significant military action against the other. The very few military confrontations are the exceptions that prove the rule: Each side seems determined, for its own reasons, to avoid provoking the other. \u201cWe\u2019re pretty good at staying out of each other\u2019s way,\u201d said Douglas Ollivant, a senior fellow at New America and former director for Iraq on the National Security Council.\nThis situation has led to bizarre contradictions in U.S. policy: In 2007 the U.S. government designated Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and the leader of its Quds force, Qassem Soleimani, as supporters of terrorism. But Soleimani makes frequent trips to Iraq and Syria to negotiate with government leaders in each country and to reinforce the morale of his troops, seemingly oblivious to the presence of the United States\u2019 most elite special operations forces, who apparently have no orders to apprehend him or any of his subordinates. In Iraq, some of his proxy forces drive around in U.S.-made M1 Abrams tanks given to them by the United States\u2019 notional ally, the Iraqi government.\nGen. Qassem Soleimani of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, center, in Tehran, Iran, in 2016. (Photo: Office of the Iranian Supreme Leader via AP)\nIndeed, for all the Trump administration\u2019s criticism of Obama\u2019s policy toward Iran, say current and former government officials, on the ground very little has changed when it comes to countering what the U.S. government terms Iran\u2019s \u201cmalign activity,\u201d which has seen Iran gain leverage in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Lebanon through the use of proxy forces. The Trump administration might employ fiery rhetoric against Iran, but its actions are \u201cexactly the opposite,\u201d said Bassam Barabandi, a former Syrian diplomat who split from the regime of Bashar Assad in 2013. Like other observers, including members of the Trump administration, Barabandi has been frustrated by the president\u2019s failure to order actions that match his administration\u2019s words.\nSimilarly, the IRGC and its proxy militias in Iraq, Syria and Yemen have made repeated threats against U.S. forces in the Middle East but have only followed them up with lethal action on very rare occasions (and even those are sometimes disputed). It wasn\u2019t always this way. At the height of the Iraq war, while American attention was mostly focused on Sunni insurgents, the IRGC and its proxies killed more than 500 U.S. troops from 2005 to 2011, often using explosively formed projectiles, or EFPs, a particularly lethal type of improvised explosive device. In response, U.S. special operators went after the networks that funneled these bombs to the militias, killing numerous IRGC facilitators by using a so-called Xbox device, a reverse-engineered IED designed to leave no telltale traces of U.S. involvement.\nBut U.S. forces withdrew from Iraq in 2011, and by the time they returned three years later, the situation had changed. Faced with a marauding Islamic State group that had seized a large swath of eastern Syria and northern Iraq and was now threatening Baghdad, the U.S. military found itself uncomfortably on the same side as the Iranian-backed Shiite militias in Iraq against the Sunni extremists. At the same time, the Obama administration was wary of upsetting the ongoing negotiations toward a nuclear deal with Iran by antagonizing Tehran.\nU.S. Marines in Iraq fire a howitzer at an ISIS infiltration route, March 18, 2016. (Photo: Cpl. Andre Dakis/U.S. Marine Corps)\nThe result was what an Obama national security official called \u201can uneasy truce\u201d on the ground in Iraq and Syria. It has continued until now, according to current and former government officials and other observers, for four main reasons on the American side: a perceived need to prioritize the fight against the Islamic State; a desire to avoid antagonizing Iran in any way that would jeopardize the Iranian nuclear deal; the absence of legal authority to militarily attack Iran and its proxies; and a fear that the Iranians might respond by attacking U.S. forces in Iraq or Syria, prompting a cycle of escalation that could result in a full-scale war with Iran\u2019s sizeable armed forces. From Iran\u2019s perspective, its regional strategy is already succeeding, something that a conflict with the United States would place at risk.\nWhether this lull will survive the Trump administration\u2019s withdrawal from the Iran nuclear agreement remains to be seen, however.\nThe Islamic State fight\nThe Islamic State\u2019s unexpected surge into Iraq in 2014, when it came within 15 miles of Baghdad\u2019s airport, served to focus minds in the White House and the Pentagon. From then on, \u201cthe fight against the Islamic State took priority over rolling back Iranian influence in Iraq or even in Syria,\u201d said a former senior defense official. \u201cEscalating with Iran would have undermined our ability to be successful at the counter-ISIL mission in Iraq, in particular, as well as Syria,\u201d said an Obama National Security Council official, using an alternative acronym for the Islamic State.\nThe Iranian nuclear deal\nAt the same time as it was trying to roll back the Islamic State, the Obama administration was engaged in delicate negotiations with Iran that led to the multilateral nuclear deal, formally titled the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).\nAttaining that deal became such a high priority for some in the Obama administration that they were reluctant to take any action that might have jeopardized it, according to the former senior defense official. \u201cThe State Department under John Kerry was so protective of the deal that they were reluctant to push back on Iran in other places,\u201d he said. \u201cThe places where Iranian influence was greatest \u2014 Syria and Iraq \u2014 we weren\u2019t about to take steps to constrain them.\u201d\nPresident Obama speaks during a news conference about the just-concluded Iran nuclear deal on July 15, 2015. (Photo: Alex Wong/Getty Images)\nOthers described more of a balancing act to keep the negotiations on track without appeasing Tehran. \u201cUnderstanding where we were with the JCPOA, no one in the Obama administration wanted a military conflagration with Iran,\u201d said the Obama National Security Council official. However, the former NSC official said, \u201cthis whole idea that we held back for fear of rocking the nuclear deal is incredibly overblown.\u201d\nBut this restraint extended beyond the July 2015 signing of the nuclear deal. It also extended beyond the Iraq-Syria theater to Yemen, where the Quds force, which combines intelligence and special operations functions, was advising and supplying Houthi rebels in their war against the internationally recognized government. It was there that \u201cmany\u201d officials thought the U.S government could have taken a stronger line, according to the former senior defense official.\nThis was particularly true in the fall of 2016, when the Houthis fired missiles at the USS Mason and a logistics vessel called the HSV-2 Swift that had been leased by the United Arab Emirates. \u201cWe found it very difficult to get the White House to take these attacks as seriously as they should,\u201d the former senior defense official said. \u201cIt really took the intervention of senior Department of Defense officials to impress upon the White House that this was a big deal.\u201d Another former Obama administration official acknowledged \u201csome long conversations\u201d as policymakers tried to balance the risks of letting the Houthis \u201cfire on U.S. ships and get away with it\u201d with the risk of firing back and being seen as escalating \u201cbecause everyone knows the Houthis are in some ways a proxy force of the Iranians.\u201d\nArmed tribesmen loyal to Houthi rebels in Sanaa, Yemen, in 2016. (Photo: Hani Mohammed/AP)\n\u201cThere was a desire to be proportionate, which, by the way, is also what international law requires,\u201d said the Obama National Security Council official. \u201cCertainly, there were those who thought it wasn\u2019t worth it.\u201d\nUltimately, another U.S. Navy destroyer launched several Tomahawk cruise missiles at three Houthi radar sites. But no U.S. special operations forces were sent into action against the Houthis, said the former senior defense official, and there is no sign that has happened under Trump. Across Yemen\u2019s border with Saudi Arabia, however, U.S. special operators were hard at work helping the Saudis in their war with the Iranian-backed Houthis. The New York Times reported in May that about a dozen Special Forces soldiers had deployed to Saudi Arabia in late 2017 to help locate and destroy ballistic missiles with which the Houthis were attacking Saudi cities. But a retired U.S. special operations officer said the effort was larger than just one small team and involved operators from the United States\u2019 most elite special ops units, sometimes called the \u201ctiered\u201d units, helping to prepare their Saudi counterparts. \u201cWe\u2019ve got a very great presence in Saudi,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re helping them under the table. The Saudis are sending in their best troops. Our tiered units are working very closely with them in terms of combat prep\u201d before they cross into Yemen.\nA still image from a video purportedly showing the launch by Houthi forces of a ballistic missile aimed at Riyadh\u2019s King Khaled Airport. (Photo: Houthi Military Media Unit via Reuters)\nEven if Trump or Obama wanted to use U.S. forces to attack the Quds force and its proxies in the Middle East, no legal authority exists that would allow that, according to several former government officials. Because the Islamic State evolved from al-Qaida in Iraq, both presidents have claimed that the war against the Islamic State is covered by the Authorization for the Use of Military Force that Congress passed in the days after the 9/11 attacks in 2001, which permits the U.S. military to use armed force against those responsible for the attacks and any \u201cassociated forces.\u201d But it does not cover the Quds force, Hezbollah or any other Shiite militant groups.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have an AUMF that allows us to actually do anything militarily to confront Iran or its proxies,\u201d said Matthew Levitt, an expert on Iran\u2019s proxy forces at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. \u201cOur allies don\u2019t understand that: \u2018You\u2019re there, you\u2019re capable but you won\u2019t act for some technical legal reasons?\u2019\u201d\nThe absence of legal authority meant that the United States could only act against Iran or its proxies in self-defense or to defend its Kurdish allies, said the former senior defense official.\nIt was that self-defense factor that allowed the strikes on the Houthis\u2019 radar sites, as well as what U.S. sources said were the only U.S. strikes on what some call \u201cthe Iran Threat Network\u201d in Iraq or Syria in recent years, at Tanf in eastern Syria. Twice in May 2017 U.S. aircraft struck pro-Assad regime troops, first when a column of vehicles entered an exclusion zone around a small U.S. special ops base at Tanf, and then again when troops from the column fortified a position near the base, according to the Washington Post. The pro-regime troops included Quds force operatives, Lebanese Hezbollah fighters, and militias from Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba, an Iraqi Shiite paramilitary group, said Michael Pregent, who spent four years in Iraq for the Defense Intelligence Agency studying Iranian penetration of the Iraqi government. \u201cHezbollah and the Iranians, they try to test the Americans,\u201d Barabandi said.\nHezbollah and Syrian flags flutter on a military vehicle in Qalamoun, Syria, in 2017. (Photo: Omar Sanadiki/Reuters)\nThe U.S. government saw the move as an attempt to secure nearby border crossings, part of Tehran\u2019s effort to secure a so-called \u201cland bridge\u201d connecting Iran with Lebanon through Syria and Iraq. This is something that has concerned the Defense Department since Iran\u2019s intervention in the Syrian civil war. Under Trump, the small outpost at Tanf \u201cis now quite clearly a hedge against Iran,\u201d said the Obama National Security Council official. The land bridge issue was a particular worry at U.S. Central Command, or CENTCOM, which commands U.S. military forces in the Middle East. \u201cCENTCOM was constantly coming in and saying, \u2018We want to make sure that we can prevent a land bridge through Iraq all the way into Syria from Iran,\u2019\u201d said another Obama administration official.\nThe softly-softly approach toward Iran frustrated some officials at Central Command and Joint Special Operations Command, the secretive headquarters that runs the United States\u2019 most sensitive special ops missions, according to current and former government officials.\nThe military still seethed over the hundreds of American casualties the Quds force had inflicted at the height of the Iraq war, according to several former officials. \u201cI know lots of guys who are very bitter, going back to the early 2000s,\u201d said retired Army Maj. Gen. Mark Quantock, who finished his career in 2017 as Central Command\u2019s director of intelligence. \u201cThe first thing out of their mouths is, \u2018The blood of American soldiers is on these guys\u2019 hands.\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018Yeah, I got that, and I am empathetic with that, absolutely. But the reality is this is now a different time, and in this particular theater, they are a friend of a friend.\u2019\u201d\nQuantock said he had seen no media reports that U.S. special operations had been conducting \u201clethal\u201d missions against Iran and its proxies. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of operators who would love to do that,\u201d he said, but it would require a presidential finding, \u201cand frankly I would be surprised if that was actually occurring.\u201d\nFear of Iranian response\nAnother reason that U.S. policymakers have been reluctant to approve missions against the Quds force and its proxies is fear of what Iran would do in response. \u201cThere are times when people will suggest a very reasoned, very limited action that frankly won\u2019t really make Hezbollah raise much of an eyebrow, and you\u2019ll have someone in the room scream bloody hell, so there can be a tremendous, tremendous overreaction,\u201d Levitt said.\n\u201cFor years there\u2019s been an exaggerated fear of an Iranian response to anything we do,\u201d said a former Trump administration official. \u201cThe premise has been that if we were to sanction bank accounts, arrest individuals, or by chance kill actual Iranians as collateral damage in Yemen or Syria, that Iran would respond by killing or kidnapping Americans in Iraq or somewhere else, or that we could start a war with Iran. So regardless of the behavior they were involved in, they were given a pass.\u201d\nGen. Qassem Soleimani, right, in Iraq. (Photo via Twitter)\nHowever, not all such fears are unfounded, according to Levitt. \u201cIran has a very long history of carrying out retribution attacks or attacks to put pressure on countries for the release of jailed comrades, and so on,\u201d he said.\nThere are roughly 5,000 U.S. troops in Iraq and 2,000 in Syria, figures that are dwarfed by the number of Shiite militia members in Iraq and Syria. The average estimate of Iranian proxy forces in Syria is 70,000, and the lowest is 30,000, according to Barabandi. U.S. intelligence finds keeping track of these groups \u201cvery, very difficult,\u201d said Quantock. \u201cOur ability in terms of looking into that country and to discern all the various groups is not great.\u201d\nIn Iraq, the Iranian-backed Shiite militias have thoroughly penetrated Iraq\u2019s regular security forces, according to Pregent, the former DIA analyst. There \u201cwas always kind of a real concern for the safety of our own forces there,\u201d said an Obama administration National Security Council official. That concern was well placed, according to Pregent. \u201cOur guys are outnumbered a hundred to one,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you go after these militias, the militias will be able to hit you very easily because they are with you.\u201d\n\u201cThey are surrounded by Shia militias, and they are sitting ducks,\u201d agreed Entifadh Qanbar, a former member of the Iraqi air force who now lives in the United States and has long been involved in Iraqi politics. \u201cWashington realizes that. They know that they could be killed at any minute.\u201d\nIran presents a particular challenge for U.S. policymakers, according to Levitt. \u201cIt\u2019s difficult to deal with an adversary that is very calculating, very rational but willing to assume risk, very aggressive,\u201d he said.\nIran also enjoys \u201cprofound\u201d advantages when operating in the Middle East, according to a former Trump administration official. These include its proximity to the main battlefields and its \u201cdeep knowledge of local actors, customs and language,\u201d he said. \u201cBut most importantly, their ideological commitment and perception of strategic interest keeps them focused on achieving their objectives. All of these things are absent on the American side. We have larger resources, better tradecraft [espionage methods] and high-end technology, but that pales in comparison to the advantages of the Iranians on this terrain.\u201d In addition, he said, \u201cthey\u2019re willing to be ruthless and committed to achieve their objectives, and everyone knows it.\u201d\nLebanese Hezbollah fighters fire at a position of the Islamic State group in Syria\u2019s Qalamoun region in 2017. (Photo: Ammar Safarjalani/Xinhua via Zuma Wire)\nCentral Command\u2019s efforts to deter Iran are grouped under Operation Spartan Shield, according to several former military officials. These have included activities to prevent the Iranians from closing the Strait of Hormuz, operations to support Israel (handled by U.S. European Command) and the United States-Gulf Cooperation Council allies, and operations against Iran\u2019s \u201cmalign activity\u201d in the region, according to a former Pentagon official. \u201cThe vast majority of all this stuff is preparatory and passive, but you could always scale it up to be more aggressive,\u201d said another former senior defense official.\nPublic references to Spartan Shield mention only conventional force deployments (and never identify Iran by name), but military sources suggest that Joint Special Operations Command also has a role. In recent years, one of JSOC\u2019s most secret units, an intelligence outfit sometimes known as Task Force Orange, has had the global mission of countering malign Iranian activity. Current and former military officials indicated that was still the case. (Central Command did not respond to emailed questions from Yahoo News about Spartan Shield.)\nBut Spartan Shield\u2019s success at deterring Iran\u2019s malign activity is open to question, given the spreading influence of Iran\u2019s proxies in Iraq, Syria and Yemen in recent years. The United States finds it easier to deter the Iranian conventional threat to U.S. partners in the Gulf, such as Qatar and Bahrain, than to deter Iran\u2019s \u201cunconventional threat,\u201d Quantock said. \u201cIt\u2019s pretty hard to deter,\u201d he said.\nWhy Iran is eager to avoid conflict with the U.S.\nThe occasional Houthi missile, possible EFP strike or Hezbollah probe aside, Iran and its proxies have not attacked U.S. forces in the Middle East since the United States returned to Iraq in 2014. The reason for that is simple, observers say: Iran is on the way to achieving its goals in the region, converting Iraq into a satellite state, exerting control over Lebanon via Hezbollah, and keeping Assad in power but beholden to Tehran. Picking a fight with the United States \u201cdoesn\u2019t do anything for that plan,\u201d said an Obama administration official. \u201cIt may inhibit the plan.\u201d\nIn 2011, when the U.S. military withdrew from Iraq, \u201cIran\u2019s pieces don\u2019t fit the game board,\u201d said Norman Roule, who until September was the national intelligence manager for Iran and is currently a senior adviser to United Against Nuclear Iran. \u201cWith the collapse of Assad [in the wake of the Arab Spring], the Yemen imbroglio and of course the U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, suddenly Iran\u2019s pieces do fit.\u201d\nSupporters of Iraqi Hezbollah brigades march with portraits of late Iranian leader Ayatollah Khomeini and Iran\u2019s current supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in Baghdad, 2017. (Photo: Hadi Mizban/AP)\nThose \u201cpieces\u201d consist mainly of Qassem Soleimani\u2019s Quds force and the proxy forces it has built up. Of those surrogates, one stands above all the others: Lebanese Hezbollah, which Iran has nurtured since the early 1980s into a force that can now play a leadership role in conflicts from Syria to Yemen. While the once-feared terrorist capabilities of both Quds force and Hezbollah have \u201crusted on the vine\u201d in recent years, according to Levitt, the groups\u2019 real competitive advantage is in what the U.S. military calls unconventional warfare: building and directing effective proxy forces to subvert enemy governments.\nIran\u2019s capabilities in this regard exceed those of China and Russia, according to Roule. \u201cThey all practice different types of gray-zone activities, but Iran is by far the most advanced and regionally impactful,\u201d he said. \u201cIran is manipulating the futures of nations. China is just building rocks\u201d (a reference to Beijing\u2019s efforts to extend its influence by constructing artificial islands in the South China Sea).\nThe Quds force has recruited and trained Shiite militias from as far afield as Afghanistan to fight in Syria while also deploying Hezbollah trainers to Yemen. They \u201chave managed to develop, arm, train, influence [and] direct a transnational Shia contingent that is capable of fighting on different battlefields, disconnected battlefields, against different opponents, simultaneously,\u201d Roule said. \u201cNo other state is able to do that.\u201d\nThe Trump administration\u2019s national security team took office in January 2017 determined to be tougher on Iran than the Obama administration had been. Many members of the new team were military veterans who had served in Iraq during the years when Iranian attacks on U.S. forces were at their peak. These included retired Army Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, Trump\u2019s first national security advisor, as well as his successor, retired Army Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, as well as Army Col. Joel Rayburn and retired colonels Mike Bell and Derek Harvey on the National Security Council staff.\n\u201cThe former military guys, if there\u2019s a unifying theme, it\u2019s disdain for how the Obama administration handled Iran in particular,\u201d said an Obama national security official. Another former Obama administration official said that the veterans\u2019 criticism of Obama was unfair, \u201cbut I can understand how, if you\u2019ve spent several of your formative years in Iraq and had your friends killed by Iranian elements or Iranian-manufactured weapons, you would think that President Obama was being naive about the nature of the threat.\u201d\nFor their part, the incoming team found themselves working with career civil servants who did not share their alarm, said a former Trump administration official. \u201cIt is far worse than I had imagined,\u201d he said. \u201cThere was a mindset that Iran was not really the problem, the Gulfies were the problem in the region.\u201d\nThe Trump administration immediately amped up the rhetoric, as exemplified by Flynn\u2019s Feb. 1, 2017, statement. However, for all the tough talk, on the battlefields of the Middle East there was very little change from Obama\u2019s hands-off policy when it came to the Quds force and its proxies. \u201cThe new administration, no matter how much they talked against Iran, they dealt with the reality on the ground,\u201d said Barabandi. He placed \u201c100 percent\u201d of the blame on the Obama administration. \u201cThey just closed their eyes and let Iran expand in Syria,\u201d he said. \u201cThey didn\u2019t ask any price for it; it was really a free ride. It was the same in Iraq.\u201d\nPresident Trump, with Vice President Mike Pence in background, after the president announced his intention to withdraw from the Iran nuclear agreement, May 8, 2018. (Photo: Jonathan Ernst/Reuters)\nOn May 8, Trump announced that the United States would withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal, his predecessor\u2019s signature diplomatic achievement and the cornerstone of official U.S. policy toward Iran. Trump\u2019s decision \u201cabsolutely \u2026 should lift the constraints\u201d from U.S. forces when it comes to confronting the Quds force and its proxies, said Pregent, who was executive director of Veterans Against the Deal. But for that to happen, \u201cyou have to replace passive-aggressive bureaucrats with carnivores,\u201d the former Trump administration official said.\nSome observers doubt that the awkward de-facto armistice between U.S. forces and Iranian-controlled militias in Iraq and Syria can last much longer. The close proximity of the forces and their mutual distrust will likely lead to a conflagration sooner rather than later, according to retired Army Col. Ike Wilson, who served as chief of the Commander\u2019s Initiatives Group at Central Command from 2013 to 2016. \u201cThere\u2019s going to be either an intentional or more likely an unintentional direct engagement of some sort,\u201d he said. \u201cI just think it\u2019s inevitable.\u201d\nMeanwhile, the question remains: What will Iran do with its massive proxy army once the Islamic State has been defeated and the remaining pockets of resistance to Assad are wiped out? It is a question that has the Middle East on edge. The Trump administration is counting on Russia to use its influence to get Iran to withdraw its forces, including Hezbollah and other proxies, from Syria. Observers consider that prospect unlikely. \u201cNeither Russia nor Assad can expel Iran,\u201d Pregent said. The Quds force, Hezbollah and other Shiite militias have taken more than 2,100 casualties in Syria. \u201cThe only way Iran can legitimize its war with Syria [with its own people] is by going to war with Israel,\u201d Barabandi said. To forestall that eventuality, Israel has launched a series of airstrikes against Quds force and Hezbollah bases in Syria. But Barabandi doubts that airstrikes alone will eliminate the threat Iran\u2019s proxy army poses to the Jewish state. \u201cEven Israel can\u2019t kill 70,000 people,\u201d he said.\nLikewise, powerful Iranian-backed Shiite militias like Kata\u2019ib Hezbollah in Iraq may soon be getting restless and looking for new battlegrounds. \u201cIf you\u2019re Kuwait, you\u2019ve got to wonder: What will happen to Kata\u2019ib Hezbollah in the future?\u201d said Roule.\n\u201cYou could make a very strong case that we are ceding the region \u2014 maybe handing it on a silver platter \u2014 to Iran,\u201d said Levitt. \u201cAnd at the end of the day the effect of our invasion of Iraq and fighting all these Sunni jihadists will have been to have removed all of Iran\u2019s checks and balances and regional adversaries and empowered a regime that is, in the long run, a much bigger threat to U.S. interests.\u201d\nPhotos: Candlelight vigil in front of White House is part of nationwide protest",

(Photo by Abbie Parr/Getty Images)\nNEW YORK (AP) \u2014 The Big Ten is increasing its conference schedule to 20 games in men\u2019s basketball and 18 in women\u2019s basketball, starting in the 2018-19 season.\nThe conference announced the move Thursday before its men\u2019s basketball media day at Madison Square Garden.\nUnder the new format, men\u2019s teams will play seven opponents twice and six teams once, splitting the single matchups evenly between home and away. In-state rivalries Illinois-Northwestern, Michigan-Michigan State and Indiana-Purdue will be played twice annually.\nThe women\u2019s schedule will include five opponents playing twice and eight once, split evenly between home and away. It also will emphasize state and regional rivalries.\nBig Ten men\u2019s teams currently play 18 conference games and the women\u2019s teams play 16.\nThe Big Ten doesn\u2019t have a preseason poll for order of finish in the conference, but it does choose a preseason player of the year, as voted by the media. Michigan State sophomore Miles Bridges was picked as preseason player of the year along with being a unanimous selection to the 10-player preseason all-conference team.\nJoining Bridges on the preseason all-Big Ten team: Northwestern\u2019s Bryant McIntosh and Scottie Lindsey; Wisconsin\u2019s Ethan Happ; Maryland\u2019s Justin Jackson; Michigan\u2019s Moritz Wagner; Michigan State\u2019s Nick Ward; Purdue\u2019s Vincent Edwards; and Minnesota\u2019s Amir Coffey and Nate Mason.\nFerris State men\u2019s basketball gets off to a red hot start\nCalvin-Hope juggle practice schedule, weather ahead of 200th meeting\nDennis balances family and basketball",

For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.\u201d \u2014II Corinthians 12:7-9\nThere are three basic reasons God allows believers to have problems: to overcome sin, to grow spiritually, and to be used of God.\nWhenever there is sin in a believer\u2019s life, God convicts by the Holy Spirit (Jn. 16:8-11) to bring him to repentance and reconciliation. If that does not work, He allows ever increasing consequences. This is not to punish but to chasten, discipline, and correct. God told Israel if they did not drive out the inhabitants of the Promised Land, or if they worshipped their idols, they would become thorns and scourges in Israel\u2019s side (Num. 33:55; Josh. 23:13; Judg. 2:3; Ezek. 28:24).\nIf an individual has allowed God to search his heart, and He cannot find any sin (Ps. 139:23-24), the question would then be, \u201cWhat is God trying to teach him?\u201d That does not mean that God is cruel or mean, but as the perfect parent, teacher, and shepherd, He loves each believer too much to leave him where he is. Every test or trial God allows will be used by Satan to attack the believer\u2019s faith and tempt him to sin, but God provides it as an opportunity to respond in faith to Him so the \u201cworks of God should be made manifest\u201d (Jn. 9:3) to him and to others. As this is accomplished, God is glorified (Eph. 1:6, 12, 14).\nThe reason that God did not remove Paul\u2019s thorn in the flesh was so that he would not exalt himself above others or become proud. Since God had given him the revelations, he could have thought that he was better than others and did not have to continually depend on God. This would have been catastrophic to his ministry. So, even though Satan took these openings as a way to attack Paul\u2019s faith and to tempt him to sin, they were a blessing from God so the power of Christ would rest on him (II Cor. 12:9) as he kept his faith in the Cross.\nIt was a constant reminder to Paul of who he was without Christ, and how to receive the benefits of the Cross. He had to continually realize that there was no good thing in his flesh (Rom. 7:18), he could do nothing (Jn. 5:19, 30; 6:53; 9:33; 15:5), he knew nothing (I Cor. 2:14; 4:4; 8:2; I Tim. 6:4), he was nothing (II Cor. 12:11; Gal. 6:3), and he had nothing (Mat. 14:16; Mk. 6:37; Lk. 9:13; Jn. 6:7). So, daily he had to keep his faith in the Cross, deny self, and take up his cross and follow Christ (Lk. 9:23).\nWriters of the New Testament were inspired to write that as believers keep their faith in the Cross when going through the problems in their lives, they can be conformed to the image of Christ (Rom. 8:29), and the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23) will be produced in their lives.\nPaul said: \u201cWe glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation works patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope. And hope makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given unto us\u201d (Rom. 5:2-5).\nJames said: \u201cMy brethren, count it all joy when you fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing\u201d (James 1:2-4). Peter said: \u201cGiving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity\u201d (II Pet. 1:5-7).\nSo, if a believer has earnestly prayed, and a problem has not been removed, it may be because more can be accomplished through it remaining than if it were removed.",

        "title": "How Black Protestant Churches Set African American Women Up for Failure | Hemant Mehta | Friendly Atheist | Patheos",
        "raw_content": "How Black Protestant Churches Set African American Women Up for Failure June 1, 2018 Hemant Mehta\nHow Black Protestant Churches Set African American Women Up for Failure\nIn 2016, Dr. Karen Garst published a book compiling the stories of nearly two dozen women who shed their faith and wanted to tell you how it happened. Now, instead of just focusing on how they left religion, Garst has compiled a series of essays, both personal and academic, about how various women been harmed by faith.\nIt\u2019s called Women v. Religion: The Case Against Faith \u2014 and for Freedom (Pitchstone Publishing).\nIn the excerpt below, Deanna Adams, a board member of the Humanists of Houston, writes about the impact of religion specifically on African American women, specifically how Black Protestant church teachings frequently set them up for failure.\nIn addition to educational and financial considerations, Black women today face a myriad of challenges in everyday life. From relationship struggles to social justice apathy, the historically Black Protestant Church in the United States sets Black women up to fail in many ways.\nMany male church leaders, especially megachurch prosperity pastors, suggest women live a strict and holy life devoted to the church while they wait for the mate that God has sent for them. This \u201cwaiting for Boaz\u201d mentality takes its cues from the biblical story of Ruth, who after becoming a widow, follows her mother-in-law Naomi to her native land. Boaz, a wealthy landowner, notices Ruth while she is working in his fields for food. Her mother-in-law encourages her to make herself available to him, and he eventually acquires her along with her mother-in-law\u2019s land. After this acquisition, they are wed and she begets a son in the lineage of David.\nProsperity pastors use this scripture to show that a woman\u2019s life can be substantially improved with the addition of a well-to-do man. The woman must be worthy, however, by being a hard worker, diligent, and chaste. Boaz took notice of Ruth because of her hardworking nature, and he rewarded her with marriage. When she lay at his feet as instructed by Naomi, he showed respect by not sleeping with her immediately, but instructing her on the next steps and telling her to wait until he met with the town elders. In essence, women must go about their daily lives, working hard in service to God at the church, and in service to their families at jobs and at home, and a wonderful man will appear when they least expect it. This wonderful man will respect her dutifulness and care for her, showing his dedication by securing her future.\nIn his book Promises from God for Single Women, T. D. Jakes writes:\nAs a Christian woman, you have more important things to do than obsess about finding a mate. Don\u2019t worry. Know that God has someone or something waiting for you. Your only job is to fulfill God\u2019s purpose for you. You need to walk the path that He has laid before you, serve Him and only Him, and prepare yourself for all He has in store for you. Becoming too caught up in the dating/mating/relating game distracts you from your Heavenly calling and keeps you from the Lord.\nUnfortunately, this mentality leads to unreasonable expectations of men by women in the church. Heterosexual marriage is still an important goal of Christianity. Women under this teaching believe that they can go about their work obliviously and a mate will magically find them. While it is true that you never know when and where you will meet your significant other, the odds of finding him in church when church membership is nearly 60 percent women are unfavorable. Add the desired qualities of financial success, spiritual health, and moral uprightness and we begin to see why so many women in this faith tradition struggle to find a suitable mate when one is desired. These thought processes also manifest in the pastor of the church becoming a surrogate husband until a suitable mate materializes. Women will go to him for advice on life decisions, model any potential mates after him, and in some cases, engage in sexual acts with him. When the pastor is put in this position, it is much easier for him to manipulate women further.\nOf course, this phenomenon is not solely to blame for the state of Black women\u2019s marriage rates. It can be said, however, that this belief system is not helping the situation in the least. Current research shows:\nRacial and ethnic differences in marriage are striking. The median age at first marriage is roughly four years higher for black than for white women: 30 versus 26 years, respectively, in 2010. At all ages, black Americans display lower marriage rates than do other racial and ethnic groups. Consequently, a far lower proportion of black women have married at least once by age 40.\nBlack women who marry experience less marital stability than most other racial groups. Again, there are many reasons for this experience, but when devout Black women find themselves having marital difficulties, the first advice often given to them is to pray for their husbands and give the problem to God. Robust, secular mental health care practices are still shunned in much of the Black community, so any counseling that dysfunctional couples may seek out is likely to come from church leaders, if at all. Some of these church leaders give incredibly harmful advice to these couples, such as telling women to pray for their abusive husbands and wait for God to intervene, which can result in worsening of relations and escalation of abuse.\nAn analysis of women murdered by men in 2011 by the Violence Policy Center yields some very sobering results for Black women in particular:\nIn 2011, black females were murdered at a rate more than two and a half times higher than white females: 2.61 per 100,000 versus 0.99 per 100,000\u2026. Compared to a black male, a black female is far more likely to be killed by her spouse, an intimate acquaintance, or a family member than by a stranger. Where the relationship could be determined, 94 percent of black females killed by males in single victim/single offender incidents knew their killers (415 out of 443). Nearly 15 times as many black females were murdered by a male they knew (415 victims) than were killed by male strangers (28 victims) in single victim/single offender incidents in 2011. Of black victims who knew their offenders, 52 percent (216 out of 415) were wives, common-law wives, ex-wives, or girlfriends of the offenders.\nConsequently, psychologically sound support for victims of domestic violence in historically Black churches is difficult to find. Men are regarded as the head of the household, and women are taught to submit to their husbands. Many women blame themselves for not being submissive enough or not praying correctly in an effort to correct the problems they experience. When this invariably doesn\u2019t work, women who try to escape may face social ostracism and a complete removal of what little support they have. Finding strength outside of the church may be the only way to save most of these women\u2019s lives.\nCompounding Black women\u2019s difficulties when leaving abusive situations is the financial insecurity created by adhering to restrictive religious practices. Marriage ministries all over the country teach that a part of submission for women is to trust their husbands with finances. Even in modern families where both partners work, women are encouraged to commingle all funds to prove openness and faith. They are expected to give ten percent of their earnings to the church as a properly tithing family. Purchases should be discussed and agreed upon beforehand, and the woman may be given a small stipend for her daily needs. This hyperfocus on transparency puts women in a precarious situation daily, but especially when they need to rebuild after a failed marriage. Even women who earn more than their husbands may find it difficult to save for an eventual divorce because all of her funds are either in joint accounts or under his control.\nUnmarried women are financially harmed by many of these practices as well. In the prosperity gospel tradition, all church members are expected to tithe one tenth of their income, gross income in most cases. This is money that could go to savings or investment accounts, or even to pay off debt. Although Black women\u2019s wages are falling, they still faithfully donate to churches on a regular basis. Since their disposable income is lower than most other racial groups, Black women give a proportionately higher amount to charity, mostly in the form of church tithing and offering. Continuing this practice is devastating financially, especially when factoring in the lack of tangible benefit to doing so.\nWhile donating to charity is certainly admirable, those who give to megachurches usually don\u2019t see the bulk of their donations used in the community. Findings from a 2016 survey of large churches shows:\n\u2022 98 percent of a church\u2019s total budget comes from congregational giving.\n\u2022 49 percent of total church budget goes to staffing costs.\n\u2022 54 percent of churches gave financial bonuses to the senior pastor in the last twelve months.\n\u2022 81 percent of churches say that knowledge about specific salaries is mostly limited to the board, a subcommittee of the board, or senior staff.\n\u2022 For each $1 of annual increase in church-wide giving per attendee, the typical executive-level annual salary increases by $15.49.\nThese findings demonstrate that at best, megachurches need to improve their financial transparency, and at worst, these houses of worship are nothing more than elaborate get-rich-quick schemes providing income for their charismatic leaders.\nIn regard to another current issue faced by Black Christian women, the overarching principle of letting go and letting God (handle your problems) creates a personal and socially apathetic individual who hesitates to fight for her own freedom or the freedom of her community. To be sure, many Black women are socially conscious and believe in activism, but the Christian tradition teaches them to first pray for changes instead of immediately getting involved. Once involved, much of that work is still done in the church, which leaves out groups that the church has historically shunned, such as the LGBTQ community.\nAt times, Black Christian women also become stagnant out of fear. They have been taught to seek God\u2019s approval in everything, so if they don\u2019t get an answer to their cries for help, they remain in unhealthy situations. Admonishments such as \u201cOne who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and one whose temper is controlled than one who captures a city\u201d (Proverbs 16:32) teach women to patiently wait for change instead of fighting for it. When tragedy strikes, Black women aren\u2019t allowed righteous anger or profound grief before they are told to forgive their enemies and let God handle the delivery of justice. Unfortunately in the United States, justice is rarely served when victims are Black.\nWhen nine parishioners were murdered in a historically Black church in Charleston, South Carolina, in 2015, family members expressed forgiveness for the killer, even as he admitted to targeting them because of his hatred of Black people. In their faith tradition, forgiveness is essential. It is a requirement to be more like God, to be able to move forward and find peace in life. This simply does not work for many people, however. Rushing forgiveness hinders the hard work of emotional healing. It is extremely unfair to those who are not ready to forgive, as they now feel the initial pain in addition to the shame associated with their anger.\nFinally, the piety of Black Christian women does not correlate positively with their health outcomes. It is widely reported that Black women experience disproportionately higher instances of most major diseases. Obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and depression are some of the ailments that Black women face more often than other races despite the church\u2019s suggestion that praying and tithing will be enough to ward off ailments and challenges if the Christian is pious enough. Clearly, focusing on a closer walk with God and putting faith in his healing is not enough to overcome these very real medical issues. While there are many factors involved in these disparities, helping women feel empowered to help themselves must become a part of any plan to improve Black women\u2019s health overall.\nIn order for the modern Black woman to begin to heal from generations of religious zealotry, it is essential to be honest about the unhealthy relationships, abuse, and financial difficulties that are exacerbated by adherence to Christianity. Apathy for our health and social justice issues, especially those most concerning to Black women, must be addressed honestly within any plan to truly prosper.\nWomen v.

But the boys fell asleep, the train rolled on, and hours later they were deposited clear across the country.\nTwenty-five years later, Brierley has finally found his way home. And he did it with Google Earth.\nThe details of what happened after Brierley and his brother got off of that train are sparse, but the few glimpses we get aren't happy ones. Over about a month of searching, he almost drowned in the Ganges river, and was nearly abducted and sold into slavery. At some unspecified point, his brother passed away.\nEventually, Brierley was found and declared a \"lost child.\" He was adopted by an Australian couple, who reared him an ocean away from his homeland. He studied at University of Canberra, and now owns a shop in Tasmania. But he never stopped looking for his family.\nAbout 10 years ago, Brierley began using the Internet to find his original home, with little to go on but vivid memories from his childhood. Recently, he turned to Google Earth to try to find a match for his mind's eye. Last month, he finally found one.\nGoogle Earth led him to his hometown, Ganesh Talai, and from there he tracked down a group dedicated to the town on Facebook. He emailed several members, and was eventually piece enough together that he got on a plane and literally searched through the streets until he found his family.\nThe reunion with his parents heartfelt, but after so much time, there was a bit of a language and culture barrier. He told the Indian Express, \"There is some Hindi in my head but I have to observe their facial expressions and hand movements to make complete sense of what they say.\"\nBrierley's planning on making a movie about his life\u2014and wouldn't you?\u2014but his story is a good reminder that the internet isn't all leaked cell phone pic and cat memes.

        "raw_content": "Epson has used its powerful Powerlite Pro Z8000WUNL projectors to launch its Cinem\u00e3o project in recently pacified parts of Brazil.\nFor years, some parts of Brazil have suffered a seemingly unending cycle of poverty, crime and violence. However, as the country looks forward to hosting the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup, the Brazilian government has sought to pacify some of the most dangerous areas.\nAs the world projection leader for more than a decade, Epson has leveraged its projectors to bring community spirit and hope to public spaces previously marked by violence and lack of cultural development. The project uses film - and Epson's high-brightness, high-resolution premium professional projectors - as tools for promoting the participation of marginalized groups.\nThe first movie viewing was conducted on February 23 in the Olympic Village in Gamboa, Rio de Janeiro. With a strong desire to promote, disseminate and promote culture through cinema, Epson turned the public space into a free movie theater for residents of the area.\nThe Cinem\u00e3o project will screen 288 films at weekends with viewings to be followed by discussions among filmmakers and the local community. The project is expected to reach more than 150,000 people, including children, youth and adults.\nPlease refer to your local Epson site for details of these and other products.\n(Note that product names and availability vary by region.)",

At 16 he is shipped off to an all boy\u2019s boarding school to sit his exams, before applying to college.\nHere he meets Steven, who\u2019s a year older, and a lot more worldly and the two embark on a relationship, struggling to figure out their own feelings, their sexuality and becoming adults.\nThere was a really great story, somewhere in there, unfortunately the execution of it lacked. I admire the author for trying something new. The entire story is told through snippets from George\u2019s journal and scenes being set up with stage directions. Unfortunately this backfired \u2013 at least for me. It removed me completely from the story and relegated me to the role of spectator to a movie. And as a movie it was way too long and with way too little action. And I never warmed to the main characters. Steven was too two dimensional and George came across as whiny and insecure.\nI think, that if the author tightened this up \u2013 I believe it could easily be cut in half, there are quite a few sub-plots that really never go anywhere and are of no consequence or interest to the main story \u2013 and re-wrote it, with a lot more show instead of tell, it could become a great emotional coming of age story.\nThe characters were very young, which I guess excuses their extremely juvenile behavior and the tiring dramatics from George, but due to their youth I also cannot believe the HEA. I would have been a lot happier with an ending without the LA scenes and a HFN. The boys are 18 after all, a true HEA is just not believable at that age, in my opinion.\nAll through the book, I was trying to figure out the meaning behind the title \u2013 but I never got it.\n2 star readsBad coverComing of agecoming outfriends to lovershigh schoolmmNot for mevirgins",

When it comes to the future of work it\u2019s not just employees that are changing, managers are also having to change the ways in which they lead and in fact are HAVING to become leaders. These are 10 core principles or characteristics that managers will and must possess going forward. This image is taken from my book, The Future of Work.\nIs a leader\nThere has long been a distinction between managers and leaders. Managers were the dictators and leaders were the visionaries. Going forward a manager MUST be a leader, that is, he or she must earn followers and not command respect. Being a manager is something you earn not something you are assigned to do. A manager cannot be someone placed in a position of power simply because they bring in the most money or are the best at delegating.\nFollow from the front\nThis concept is all about the manager\u2019s responsibility to remove obstacles from the paths of employees. A manager exists to make his people more successful not to have his or her people serve them. When a manager follows from the front he paves the way and enables team members to become successful.\nUnderstands technology\nManagers don\u2019t need to become experts at every new technology that comes their way. However, now that technology has become such a crucial part of how we live and work it has never been more important for managers to grasp which technologies have the potential to benefit the organization and which new technologies might be coming their way in the near future. A manager must a keep a good pulse on technology.\nRead the rest here: http://www.forbes.com/sites/jacobmorgan/2014/11/20/the-10-principles-of-the-future-manager/?linkId=10652374\nThings Become Possible\nLeave a comment Posted on November 16, 2014 November 16, 2014 Communication, Leadership\nAuditioning for Leadership\n\u201cEvery time you have to speak, you are auditioning for #leadership.\u201d ~James Humes\nLeave a comment Posted on November 16, 2014 Communication, Leadership, Passion\nCreate Beautiful Music by Jim Johnson\nBeing a leader is a great calling.

In fact, these would make them highly effective leaders.\nHowever, great leadership isn\u2019t only about what you are doing right. It is also about what you\u2019re not doing wrong. Just as there are habits that make leaders effective, there are habits that cripple them.\nFrom the first day we published our research on strengths-based leadership, we have also stressed the importance of fixing the terrible habits we refer to as \u201cfatal flaws.\u201d\nWe found that when a manager possessed just one of these fatal flaws they had an extremely slim chance of making it into the top tier of leadership in their organization. Possessing two or more virtually guaranteed that they would not be in the top echelon of leaders.\nWe analyzed data from more than 52,000 leaders to determine which habits frequently received low scores. We sought to understand those behaviors that best differentiated between the worst leaders (e.g. the bottom 10%) versus all other leaders.\nIn other words, we identified the habits that were millstones around the leader\u2019s neck and were most likely to cause them to sink to the bottom of the heap. Then we identified the items that had the most significant negative impact on employee engagement and led to failure in their current job. What emerged were 20 items that clustered in seven very bad habits.\nHere\u2019s the list in order, from the least to the most fatal:\nFailure to Coach and Develop Others\nIneffective leaders get into the habit of focusing only on getting their jobs done. They fail to show concern for the development of a group of people who can get the job done in an ever more competitive world, and who will take over when they are no longer around.\nRead the rest here: http://edition.cnn.com/2014/10/31/business/habits-ineffective-leaders/?c=&page=1",

Well, the game\u2019s developer revealed today that the Wii U\u2019s hardware is to blame, as Project Cars can barely run at 23 fps on it. They tried achieving a minimum 30 fps, but failed as the game is \u201csimply too much for the Wii U.\u201d.\nBut there\u2019s still hope, as the developer said that they\u2019re eager to hear more from Nintendo regarding the mysterious NX console. This means that they are willing to bring the game to it if it\u2019s powerful enough hardware-wise.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Doing the Government\u2019s Laundry\nDo Prosecutors Hate the Attorney-Client Privilege? \u2192\nI\u2019m not in the OIG, but I play one on TV.\nWe have written on several occasions[1] about OIG investigations on this blog, chiefly because a) their opacity creates a certain mystique, and b) we hope to minimize the chances that their targets underestimate the seriousness of what could later become a criminal investigation. The focus of this post is on OIG investigations involving a federal employee and a few key principles to keep in mind when suddenly confronted with an investigation.\nIn our (humblest) opinion, there are five things every federal employee should know about the OIG before its investigators show up to his or her office door:\nStay calm and be quiet. The federal employee should never agree to an interview on the spot. Despite the intimidation of the OIG suddenly appearing and all of the ways in which the investigators can subtly insist that the employee should speak with them immediately, the employee should attempt to contact counsel or their union representative before agreeing to speak with investigators.\nDon\u2019t assume that the investigation is \u201cno big deal.\u201d The investigation could be about anything. The core mandate of each OIG \u2013 there are separate offices in 73 federal agencies/departments \u2013 is to combat fraud, waste and abuse. This mandate is incredibly broad, ranging from egregious criminal conduct such as trading in restricted securities from a work computer to mundane violations of internal policy, such as having a romantic affair with a subordinate. Once its investigation commences, OIG is free to \u201cfollow the evidence\u201d and change or broaden the scope of its inquiry.\nGather basic information. Two immediate questions that should be asked of OIG: what are the potential charges and is the employee a subject? The third key question is whether the interview compelled or voluntary. This matters because it will determine what warnings the OIG investigators will give the employee. There are two main types of warnings\u2014and they are important:\nThe Kalkines Developed from Kalkines v. United States,[2] this warning compels a federal employee to respond to investigative questions or face discipline, including dismissal. However, anything the employee says following the Kalkines warning may not be used in a criminal prosecution. Due to its compulsory nature being at odds with the 5th Amendment, the Kalkines warning is given after the investigator has spoken with the relevant criminal prosecutor and the latter has indicated an unwillingness to prosecute the employee.Although the risk of self-incrimination has been obviated under Kalkines, the employee may still be prosecuted if he or she makes false statements. More importantly, the employee\u2019s answers will be used in determining whether discipline is appropriate.\nThe Garrity/Beckwith warning (sometimes confusingly called the \u201cReverse Garrity\u201d). Developed from Beckwith v. United States[3] and Garrity v. New Jersey,[4] this warning is given prior to a voluntary interview. The Garrity/Beckwith warning advises an employee that the interview is voluntary and he or she may remain silent in response to any question, but that the evidentiary value of their silence may be considered in any subsequent administrative proceeding. Anything the employee says following this warning may be used against them in criminal or administrative proceedings.\nThe union can be a resource. If the department or agency has a union, such as the American Federation of Government Employees or National Treasury Employees Union this can be a great resource during an OIG investigation. [5] The union will typically assign a representative or steward to counsel the employee on their rights, the investigative process, and potentially negotiate the terms of interview and resolution. The union\u2019s leadership and attorneys are also a font of institutional knowledge \u2013 usually keeping some kind of log of all disciplinary results and the attendant mitigating and aggravating circumstances of each.It is incumbent upon the employee to request the presence of their union rep at an investigatory interview (also known as exercising Weingarten rights).[6]But\u2026 not all jurisdictions recognize the employee-union representative privilege so the employee should take great care in divulging details to their representative. If the employee has retained counsel, he or she should notify and heed advice of counsel prior to any communication with the union.\nLeave email and browsing history untouched. The OIG has almost certainly reviewed the employee\u2019s work e-mails and browsing history prior to \u201csurfacing\u201d \u2013 e. making the investigation known to the employee. The employee should not delete e-mails, files, and Internet history or contact other individuals to discuss the perceived subject matter of the investigation. These activities are futile and even worse; indicate consciousness of guilt or an attempt to obstruct the OIG investigation. That\u2019s a federal crime.\nIn conclusion, an OIG investigation is a serious matter with potential disciplinary and criminal implications for federal employees. The above five principles should, at the very least, help individuals suddenly faced with an investigation keep their composure and preserve their rights.\n[1] Here, here, here and here.\n[2] 473 F.2d 1391 (1973).\n[4] 385 U.S. 493 (1967). Garrity involved New Jersey police officers being investigated by the state attorney general. Garrity rights are the state investigation equivalent of Kalkines and are used interchangeably to refer to compulsory administrative interviews.\n[5] The one catch is that the employee must join the union in order to take full advantage.\n[6] As articulated by the Supreme Court in NLRB v. J. Weingarten, Inc. 420 U.S. 251 (1975).\nThis entry was posted in OIG investigations.

        "raw_content": "A Horse With No Name Guitar Lesson \u2013 America\nBookmark this Lesson. In this quick and easy video guitar lesson, I am going to show you how to play the chords found in \"A Horse With No Name\" by America.\nOn the original recording we have guitars tuned to an altered tuning (D E D G B D, low to high) and a 12 string guitar tuned to standard. The chords that are played on the 12 string are what we will cover in this lesson so you can play everything in standard tuning while retaining the sound of the original recording.\nThere are only 3 chords that are repeated throughout the entire song. The chords are very simple but quite unorthodox as well. I think this make this A Horse With No Name guitar lesson great for the beginner level guitarist.\nI spend some time in the video lesson also covering picking hand strumming technique for the beginner level player. I am a big believer in feeling the rhythm and setting your picking hand in the correct motion to play any strumming pattern you want without doing a bunch of counting. I think it is much more important to learn how to feel the strumming pattern than count it.\nIn addition, the accents that are played while strumming will become second nature to you very quickly using this natural method of learning rhythm.\nHave fun guys!

Although I am a little disappointed that you didn\u2019t include the short solo section of this great song.\nInes B on February 12, 2017 at 8:47 am\nHi Carl, could you make a video with the original tunig DEDGBD? I think I\u2019m almost there, trying to figure out the strumming rhythm as a beginner is making me insane. Anyway thank you for this lesson!\nBetty Titus on June 7, 2017 at 9:09 pm\nI\u2019d like to hear your version of Horse with no Name along with a solo lesson\u2026.?",

        "raw_content": "HomeConditionsHead Lice\nHead lice are parasites that can live in human heads. A widespread occurrence, especially in children, head lice are not harmful, but they do make the scalp extremely itchy and uncomfortable, sometimes resulting in scalp sores. The lice, or one louse, can jump from one head to another by contact. Although you should be aware that even wearing infected clothing, hats, hair ties, using infested brushes and combs, or even lying on a couch or pillow that has recently had contact with an infested head, will lead to transmitting the parasites. Once latched on to their new host they will lay eggs, otherwise known as the nit, in the hair, aiming to multiply as fast as possible. Gestation takes one week for the eggs to hatch and the entire lifespan of a louse from hatch to death is up to 30 days. You'll want to be rid of them before 30 days though, because if you don't treat your head lice the cycle will continue, plus, it's extremely itchy. Can buy over the counter chemical shampoos and solutions that kill the lice before you comb and wash them out, or there are many non chemical-based products available, especially if you are treating young children.",

        "title": "Pregnancy Complications Overview | HowStuffWorks",
        "raw_content": "Browse the article A Guide to Pregnancy Complications\nMoThere are many possible pregnancy complications that prenatal care can help minimize. See more pregnancy pictures.\nAll parents hope and expect to experience a normal pregnancy and take home a healthy child. Although the majority of pregnancies and deliveries are uneventful, some involve complications that range from minor to life threatening -- for the mother, for the baby, or for both. Complications of pregnancy may develop gradually or suddenly and without warning. One objective of prenatal care is the prompt diagnosis and treatment of these complications before they worsen. In this article, we describe the most common complications of pregnancy, their causes and symptoms, and their treatment over the following sections:\nPregnancy Complications in Older Mothers In recent years there has been a trend toward having babies later in life. But more pronounced chronic diseases in the mother, among other conditions, can have an adverse affect on the developing fetus. Fortunately, prenatal care is similar for women of all ages, but this page will tell you some symptoms that women older than 35 should watch out for.\nPregnancy Complications in Teenage Mothers Most teenagers are not ready -- physically or emotionally -- to have children. As a result, birth weight is typically lower and babies of teens are more susceptible to certain illnesses. It will take an effort on the part of the teenage mom to ensure the health of her baby. This page tells you how to do it.\nPreterm Birth About 11 to 12 percent of deliveries in the United States are classified as premature, which is a birth that occurs between the 20th and 36th weeks of pregnancy. This is a dangerous condition for the baby, which might not be able to survive outside of the womb. But modern medicine has helped many premature babies survive and grow up normally. On this page you'll learn why you must go to the hospital immediately if you suspect you're going into labor prematurely.\nPostterm Birth If a baby still has not arrived two weeks past its due date, it may be in danger of malnutrition or even pneumonia. There is no danger to the mother, but a doctor may choose to induce labor for the baby's health. This page will tell you what happens in that case.\nEctopic Pregnancy An ectopic pregnancy is one in which the fertilized egg settles outside the uterus. This can be a very painful, and dangerous, condition for the mother, and if an ectopic pregnancy is detected the mother will be hospitalized immediately. This page will show you how to tell if you have an ectopic pregnancy, and what your doctor will do.\nStillbirths Stillbirth, the death of a baby before it is born, is becoming rare thanks to improved prenatal care. However, this tragic outcome of a pregnancy can happen, usually when the flow of nutrition from the placenta is cut off. This page will tell you how a doctor will detect a stillbirth.\nMiscarriages About 15 percent of known births end in miscarriage, when a baby is born too early in the pregnancy to be viable. Although many doctors prescribe bed rest if they suspect a miscarriage is possible, most believe there is no way to prevent one. This page will tell you the different types of miscarriage and the factors that contribute to them.\nMultiple Births Twins can double the joy of being a new mother, but they can also present health risks. The most common risk of a multiple birth is premature labor, and a breech birth -- with the baby coming out feet first rather than head first -- is common as well. Although the reasons for multiple births are not fully understood, this page will tell you what do to if you're carrying more than one fetus.\nPlacenta Complications A woman shouldn't experience any vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. If you do, it may be a sign of placenta previa or placental abruption. These are two conditions in which the placenta does not behave normally, and they almost always lead to a cesarean section. Find out more about these abnormalities on this page.\nCesarean Section About 30 percent of U.S. babies are born via cesarean section, in which a baby is removed through an incision in the mother's abdomen. There are many reasons why this procedure would be necessary, but it's always for the health of the baby or the mother and it's extremely safe. This page goes over the reasons and explains the two types of cesarean section.\nBirth Defects Birth defects can affect the head, face, eyes, mouth, hands, feet, and internal organs. Some minor birth defects can be corrected and leave no trace, but others are more severe and stay with the baby for life. This page details numerous birth defects, from cleft palate and clubfoot to spina bifida and Down syndrome.\nRh Incompatibility If a mother and fetus don't have compatible blood, there can be severe complications for the fetus. Furthermore, any fetus the mother carries in the future is at risk, too, unless a doctor takes the proper steps to sensitize the mother. Find out what Rh is, how it affects your pregnancy, and what your doctor will do about it on this page.\nDeseases During Pregnancy The baby isn't the only one who's at risk. Pregnancy can cause health issues for the mother too, from simple swelling of the hands and feet to increased risk of heart and kidney disease. And existing conditions in the mother, such as diabetes, can endanger a fetus. Most mothers are healthy throughout their pregnancy, but this page will tell you how to stay that way.\nAbnormalities of Labor Labor is a complicated process that can become difficult in several ways. If the baby and the umbilical cord are not positioned correctly, for example, the doctor may have to perform a cesarean section. Here you'll see what your doctor will be looking for and what he or she will do to correct anything that goes wrong.\nPregnancy Complications in Teenage Mothers\nThere are special risks to a baby when the mother is not fully mature. Because most teenagers are not phsycially, emotionally, or financially ready to carry and care for a child, their babies tend to have low birth weight and are predisposed to a variety of illnesses. A teenage mother will need the full support of her family to live a healthy lifestyle for her and her baby.\nTeen pregnancy has reached a 20-year low; however, teens give birth to approximately 500,000 babies each year. Teenagers often do not use contraceptives, and unfortunately, nearly two thirds of all teenage pregnancies are unintended.\nThe vast majority of teen mothers are not married, but few give up children for adoption or care by others. For this reason, the mothers often must drop out of school and cannot hold full-time employment. They must suddenly assume the responsibility of raising a child before they are ready, emotionally or financially.\nCompared with mothers in older age groups, teenage mothers are at greater risk of having medical complications. Because the teenage mother is more likely to receive little or no prenatal care, she often becomes anemic and is more likely to develop preeclampsia, a severe condition associated with high blood pressure.\nVitamin deficiencies are more common, and the teenage mother's weight gain is likely to be inadequate. Since the teenage mother is still growing herself, she needs to eat properly not only for her own growth but for normal growth of the fetus.\nPelvic bones do not reach their maximum size until about the age of 18; therefore, the pelvis of the teenage mother may not have grown enough to allow vaginal delivery of a normal-size baby. For this reason, the incidence of cesarean section is higher in teenage mothers -- a baby that can be delivered vaginally when the mother is 20 is often too large to have been delivered vaginally when she was 14 years old.\nBabies born to teenage mothers are more likely to die in the first year of life compared with babies born to mothers older than 20 years of age. Since the teenage mother is less likely to eat correctly during pregnancy, her baby often has a low birth weight (less than 51/2 pounds), making it more likely the baby will become ill.\nThe teenage mother should be encouraged to seek prenatal care early in pregnancy, eat a nutritious diet, take prescribed vitamins and iron supplements, and engage in healthy physical activity. Though a supportive family can help the teenage mother cope with her new responsibilities, social service agencies may be needed to help her find ways to finish school and seek employment.\nThe average length of pregnancy is 40 weeks, or 280 days, from the first day of the last normal menstrual period. The due date, or expected date of delivery, for a pregnancy is calculated simply by adding nine months and seven days to the first day of a woman's last normal menstrual period. For example, if the first day of the last menstrual period was January 1, the expected date of delivery is nine months and seven days later -- on October 8. (Some physicians use the term expected date of confinement, or EDC, to describe the due date.)\nIn reality, the majority of women do not actually give birth on the due date. About 80 percent of babies are born within ten days of the due date-either ten days before or ten days after. As long as the delivery occurs between 37 and 42 weeks, the pregnancy is considered full term.\nIf the mother goes into labor before the due date, the baby could be in serious danger. In the next page, you will find out what to do if you go into premature labor.\nIf you go into labor before your 37th week, you should go to the hospital immediately. Find out why premature birth is dangerous to the baby.\nPremature birth can be very dangerous to a newborn because it might not be developed enough to survive outside of the womb -- for example, if the lungs are not yet able to breathe. There are several reasons it happens, most of which the mother has no control over. If you suspect that you are going into labor prematurely, you should go to the hospital immediately because labor can be stopped up to a certain point.\nA preterm, or premature, delivery is defined as the birth of a baby between the 20th and 36th week of pregnancy. A baby born during this time is called premature. About 11 to 12 percent of deliveries in the United States are classified as premature; however, preterm deliveries are on the increase because more women are giving birth to multiple babies.\nA preterm delivery occurs because the mother goes into labor too early. Though in most cases there is no clear reason, abnormally early labor is often associated with the following conditions:\nMultiple pregnancy, such as twins or triplets\nAn abnormally shaped uterus that may crowd the fetus\nUntreated diseases of the thyroid gland in the mother\nOther severe diseases in the mother, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and kidney disease\nHigh fever or severe infections in the mother\nContrary to popular belief, severe emotional trauma and physical injury, such as from a fall, are uncommon causes of premature labor. If a mother has premature labor in one pregnancy, she has a 25 percent chance of premature labor in the next pregnancy.\nThe major complication of preterm delivery is the birth of a baby who is unable to survive outside the mother's body. Though the baby's organs may all be correctly formed, his lungs may not be mature enough to allow him to breathe adequately after birth. Recent advances in the care of premature infants have allowed babies as small as 11/2 pounds to survive and grow up normally. Despite these advances, prematurity remains the leading cause of newborn death.\nIf you suspect you are in labor before the 37th week of pregnancy, you should call your doctor and go to the hospital immediately. The doctor will check the cervix to determine if it has dilated. An electronic monitor may be used to detect contractions.\nSeveral different drugs may be used to stop the uterine contractions of premature labor. These drugs are initially given intravenously or subcutaneously (under the skin), and some may be given orally once contractions have stopped. Once it has been determined that contractions have stopped, you may remain in the hospital for two to three days to make certain that contractions do not start again. Once you go home, a doctor will generally advise you to restrict physical activity, refrain from sexual intercourse, and rest in bed as much as possible.\nDrugs used to stop preterm labor are more likely to be successful if the cervix has not dilated more than 4 centimeters (11/2 inches). If the cervix has dilated any more, most attempts to stop labor fail, and the baby will be delivered prematurely. This is one of the reasons why it is important to report to the hospital immediately if you suspect premature labor.\nOn the other side of the spectrum, a postterm birth can also put the newborn baby at risk. Find out how on the next page.\nA postterm pregnancy occurs when the baby has not been delivered by the end of the 42nd week. There is no health risk to the mother, but after the 42nd week the fetus may be at risk of malnutrition. Also, if it passes fecal matter -- which usually does not happen until after birth -- and breathes it in, it may develop pnemonia. A doctor may choose to induce labor two weeks past the due date.\nThe cause of postterm pregnancy is not known. In most cases, however, it is believed that the mother misstated the exact date of her last menstrual period and the pregnancy was not postterm after all. If a woman has had one postterm pregnancy, she has a greater than average chance of this happening again in subsequent pregnancies.\nPostterm pregnancy poses no health risk to the mother. However, as the placenta continues to age beyond the 42nd week of pregnancy, its ability to transmit oxygen and nutrients to the fetus may begin to decline. In some cases, this reduction in the transmission of oxygen and nutrients may be severe enough to cause the death of the fetus. If the fetus lives, at birth the baby commonly has a characteristic postterm appearance: wrinkled, cracking, peeling skin; long nails; abundant hair; and little fat tissue beneath the skin.\nThe postterm baby often passes fecal material called meconium into the amniotic fluid before delivery. If the baby sucks meconium into his lungs at the time of delivery, severe pneumonia may result.\nThe usual treatment for postterm pregnancy is to periodically check the fetal heartbeat until labor starts on its own or is induced (started artificially). Labor is induced by administering the drug oxytocin (Pitocin) intravenously. Oxytocin stimulates uterine contractions similar to those of normal labor. A fetal monitor is generally used to detect any abnormalities of the fetal heartbeat. Most women with an induced labor experience a normal labor and delivery.\nWhile postterm birth does not endanger the mother, ectopic pregnancy can be fatal. On the next page you'll learn what it is and how it affects the mother.\nAn ultrasound may reveal the location of an ectopic pregnancy.\nEctopic (out of place) pregnancy occurs when the fertilized egg develops outside the uterus. The most common location of ectopic pregnancy is in one of the fallopian tubes (structures that extend about 41/2 inches from the ovaries to the uterus and through which the egg travels from the ovary to the uterus). An ectopic pregnancy that occurs in a fallopian tube is called a tubal pregnancy. On rare occasions, the pregnancy starts to develop in the ovary, on the cervix, or attached to the surface of a nearby organ.\nAn ectopic pregnancy is one in which the fertilized egg develops outside the uterus. One out of every 100 to 150 pregnancies is ectopic, most often in the fallopian tubes, but also in the ovary, on the cervix, or attached to another organ in the abdominal cavity.\nThe usual cause of ectopic pregnancy is an obstruction or narrowing of a fallopian tube that prevents the fertilized egg from passing through the tube into the uterus. This obstruction or narrowing is sometimes the result of inflammation and scarring from a previous pelvic infection caused by a Gonococcus or Chlamydia infection. Tubal infections caused by numerous other bacteria can also occur after miscarriage, after childbirth, or during the use of an IUD (intrauterine contraceptive device). If these infections are severe, blockage or narrowing of the tube may result.\nOther less common causes of tubal obstruction or blockage include abdominal infections, such as appendicitis; pelvic tumors; and scar tissue formation after abdominal surgery.\nAn ectopic pregnancy may be fatal unless it is promptly treated. Left undetected it can rupture the tube enclosing it, leading to profuse bleeding into the abdomen. Ectopic pregnancies located in other areas, such as the ovary and cervix, can invade nearby blood vessels and cause massive bleeding. In earlier years, ectopic pregnancy was catastrophic, often leading to death. Today, with the advent of safe blood transfusions and better diagnostic methods allowing early diagnosis, death resulting from ectopic pregnancy is uncommon.\nSymptoms of ectopic pregnancy usually appear two to four weeks after a woman has missed her menstrual period. Irregular spotting of blood from the vagina is one of the earliest symptoms. This is frequently followed by sharp, continuous pains on one side of the lower abdomen.\nIf the ectopic pregnancy ruptures, the woman usually experiences sudden, sharp, severe pain in the lower abdomen accompanied by rapid heartbeat and backache and, in some cases, fainting. However, the woman may experience no unusual symptoms even up to the point of rupture.\nDuring a pelvic examination, the doctor may discover a tender swelling on one side of the pelvis. Movement of the uterus or ovaries during this examination may cause pain. If there is a high suspicion of ectopic pregnancy, the woman is immediately hospitalized.\nWhen an ectopic pregnancy is a possibility, an ultrasound of the pelvic structures may reveal the location of the ectopic pregnancy. Blood that has leaked from the ectopic pregnancy into the abdominal cavity may be detected by inserting a hollow needle through the wall of the vagina beneath the cervix and drawing off blood or by an examination using a pelvic ultrasound. The diagnosis is confirmed by inserting a laparoscope (a lighted, tube-like instrument) into the abdominal cavity through a small incision made below the navel. This allows the doctor to look directly at the pelvic organs and precisely locate the ectopic pregnancy.\nTreatment for ectopic pregnancy depends on several factors, including the size of the embryo and whether it has caused a rupture or not. If the embryo is small and the woman is not experiencing significant pain or bleeding, ectopic pregnancy may be treated using methotrexate, a drug that interferes with the growth of the embryo and causes it to be reabsorbed into the body.\nMethotrexate is administered as an injection, and the woman must be closely monitored for complications and success of the treatment. If the treatment fails, the embryo is large, or the woman is experiencing significant pain or bleeding, surgical removal is necessary.\nA woman who has had one ectopic pregnancy has a 15 percent chance of having a second one. This does not mean she should not try to become pregnant again, but when she does try, she should be especially watchful for symptoms of ectopic pregnancy. She should see her doctor as soon as she suspects she is pregnant so the location of the embryo may be determined.\nEven if the embryo develops normally, the pregnancy can still end in tragedy. On the next page you'll learn about the factors that lead to a stillbirth.\nStillbirths, which come in the second or third trimester, are thankfully growing less common, but it is always sad news for the family when it happens. However, the conditions that can lead to a stillbirth, such as placenta complications and twisting of the umbilical cord, are often things that the mother has no control over. And the silver lining is that a stillbirth typically does not endanger the life of the mother.\nThe death of the fetus at some time between the 20th week of pregnancy and birth is called stillbirth -- in medical terms, an intrauterine fetal demise. This tragic outcome of pregnancy is uncommon today because of better prenatal care and improved methods of diagnosing and treating abnormal pregnancies.\nThe primary cause of stillbirth is interruption of the normal flow of oxygen and nutrients from the mother to the fetus via the placenta and the umbilical cord. Conditions that may adversely affect the placenta and cause stillbirth include toxemia, chronic high blood pressure, diabetes, placenta previa, and placental abruption. Less commonly, a problem with the umbilical cord, such as twisting or breakage of a blood vessel, may cut off the flow of blood to the fetus and lead to stillbirth.\nCertain abnormalities of the fetus -- including erythroblastosis; severe abnormalities of the heart, kidneys, and nervous system; and even fetal heart attack -- may lead to stillbirth. It is extremely rare for an injury to the mother to cause stillbirth.\nThe death of the fetus within the uterus usually does not jeopardize the mother's health. The body generally has no reaction to fetal death except for loss of weight. Uncommonly, death of the fetus may cause abnormalities of the mother's blood clotting system, but only after the fetus has been dead for several weeks.\nFetal death is usually brought to the doctor's attention by the woman's reporting that she has not felt the fetus move for a day or two. This absence of fetal movement is significant only in the last few months of pregnancy; before this, failure to note fetal movement for a day or two is normal. If the doctor fails to detect a heartbeat, confirmation of the diagnosis of stillbirth is sought with either an electronic heartbeat monitor or ultrasound.\nSpontaneous labor may begin any time from a few hours to up to 60 days after the death of the fetus. When labor does occur, it is usually normal. Today, most doctors choose to induce labor and deliver the fetus as soon as possible after the diagnosis of fetal death. This is accomplished either by administering the drug oxytocin intravenously or giving drugs called prostaglandins as vaginal suppositories.\nA pregnancy can also end tragically in miscarriage, and about 15 percent of births do. On the next page you'll learn what causes miscarriage and what the different types are.\nA miscarriage (in medical terms, a spontaneous abortion) is the expulsion from the uterus of the fetus and placenta before the beginning of the 20th week of pregnancy. At that point, the fetus is not developed enough to survive outside the uterus on its own. (After the 20th week of pregnancy and before the 36th week, expulsion of the fetus and placenta is considered premature delivery.) Most miscarriages occur within the first 14 weeks of pregnancy.\nIt is impossible to know how many miscarriages occur during the first month of pregnancy, before many women may even realize they are pregnant. The only indication may be a slightly late menstrual period with a heavier than normal flow. However, about 15 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage.\nThere are different categories of miscarriages.\nOne of every five pregnant women experiences a threatened miscarriage when she bleeds vaginally during the first three months. Although it may indicate that a spontaneous abortion will eventually occur, it is often no more than a threat, and the pregnancy continues normally.\nAn inevitable miscarriage occurs when the woman begins to bleed and the cervix dilates; it is then only a matter of time before the contents of the uterus are expelled.\nA missed miscarriage occurs when the fetus dies and the placenta stops growing; this may occur several days to weeks before the contents of the uterus are naturally expelled.\nAn incomplete miscarriage occurs when only part of the uterine contents has been expelled.\nA complete miscarriage occurs when all of the uterine contents have been naturally expelled.\nThe reason a miscarriage occurs is not always known, but in many cases it is believed that a fetus aborts because it is not developing normally. Several factors can contribute to abnormal fetal development, including the following:\nAbnormalities in the father's sperm\nAbnormalities in the egg\nDisease in the mother, most notably rubella (German measles), severe heart or kidney disease, diabetes, or thyroid disease\nAbnormalities in the uterus\nThe mother's use of certain drugs\nThe mother's exposure to toxic substances or certain environmental pollutants\nContrary to popular belief, severe emotional trauma or stress, automobile accidents, and simply falling rarely, if ever, cause miscarriage.\nThe expulsion of the fetus because of an abnormality is thought to be a chance event, usually not due to a defect in either parent. Of women who miscarry once, most (80 percent) have a successful subsequent pregnancy.\nAlthough it is uncommon, some women miscarry three or more times in a row; they are called habitual aborters. When this occurs, the physician conducts a thorough evaluation of both the woman and her partner to determine the cause, if any. Frequently, a chromosome abnormality in one parent or an abnormality of the uterus is found. If an abnormality of the uterus is the cause of miscarriage, corrective surgery may be done, and a successful pregnancy often results. If the cause of miscarriage is a chromosome abnormality in either parent, the problem cannot be corrected.\nMiscarriage is rarely life-threatening for the mother, especially if diagnosed and treated promptly. Though blood loss may occur, it is generally not enough to cause serious problems.\nThe symptoms of miscarriage are vaginal bleeding (from a few drops to a heavy flow) and uterine cramps (either dull and constant or sharp and intermittent) felt in the lower part of the abdomen or back. The bleeding can start suddenly or follow a brownish discharge. A solid clot of blood or tissue may pass from the vagina. If possible, this should be saved for the doctor, who may be able to examine it and determine the cause of the bleeding.\nA pregnant woman who starts bleeding or experiences abdominal pain should contact her doctor immediately.\nIf a threatened miscarriage is diagnosed, the doctor generally directs the woman to rest in bed, avoid heavy lifting and pushing, and abstain from sexual intercourse. Though it is traditional for doctors to give this advice, many physicians feel little can be done to stop or avert a miscarriage.\nAfter an inevitable, incomplete, or missed miscarriage, any tissue remaining in the uterus causes continued bleeding and possibly infection. To remove any retained tissue, the doctor performs a D & C (dilatation and curettage). This is a surgical procedure in which the cervix is dilated by means of tapered metal dilators, and the contents of the uterus are scraped out with suction and a sharp instrument called a curette.\nIf you are carrying more than one fetus, you also might not carry to full term. On the next page find out why multiple births increase the liklihood of premature labor.\nPlacenta Complications\nVaginal bleeding during pregnancy can be a sign of a problem with the placenta. Find out what to do about placenta previa and placental abruption.\nFrom the time of the last normal menstrual period to the time of labor, a pregnant woman should not experience any bleeding from the vagina. During the first half of pregnancy, the most serious causes of bleeding are miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy; during the last half of pregnancy, the most serious causes are placenta previa and placental abruption.\nIn placenta previa, the placenta is located low in the uterine cavity, partially or completely covering the opening of the cervix. As the lower portion of the uterus stretches and dilates during the latter weeks of pregnancy, portions of the placenta may be torn from their attachment to the wall of the uterus. This leads to variable amounts of bleeding, ranging from light to profuse.\nThe exact cause of placenta previa is unknown. It is the leading cause of vaginal bleeding during the second and third trimesters.\nThe major symptom of placenta previa is painless vaginal bleeding. This bleeding may begin as early as the 24th to 26th week of pregnancy, though it is more common during the last 4 or 5 weeks. The blood is usually bright red, indicating the bleeding is fresh. This bleeding occurs without any previous injury (for example, from a fall). In some cases, the blood flow is light (referred to as spotting). Abdominal pain or cramping generally does not accompany the bleeding unless the woman is in labor.\nAny vaginal bleeding during pregnancy is abnormal and should be reported to the doctor immediately. The doctor orders an ultrasound image of the mother's abdomen to locate the placenta. In most cases of placenta previa, the ultrasound shows the placenta covering part or all of the opening of the cervix.\nBleeding from a placenta previa may be extremely heavy, leading to severe blood loss from the mother. This bleeding stops only after the baby has been delivered and the placenta has been removed. Unless treatment is rapid in the case of heavy bleeding, death of both the mother and the baby may result.\nSince the placenta covers part or all of the opening of the cervix, a normal vaginal delivery cannot be attempted since extreme hemorrhage will occur. For this reason, babies of most mothers with placenta previa are delivered by means of cesarean section.\nOnce placenta previa has been diagnosed, the doctor recommends the best treatment -- either delayed or active. Delayed treatment involves admitting the woman to the hospital, keeping her on bed rest, and closely monitoring her for any recurrence of bleeding. The purpose of delayed treatment is to give the fetus time to mature so that it can survive outside the mother's body. Once the maturity of the fetus has been established, delivery is by means of cesarean section. In the case of active treatment, the baby is delivered by means of cesarean section as soon as possible.\nThe degree of vaginal bleeding usually dictates the type of treatment. If vaginal bleeding is slight and the fetus is not yet mature, the doctor generally recommends delayed treatment. If vaginal bleeding is heavy, a cesarean section is performed immediately to save the life of the mother and the baby, even if the baby is premature.\nAfter delivery of a baby, the uterus begins to contract, separating the placenta from its wall and pushing it into the vagina. In the case of placental abruption, the placenta begins to separate from the uterine wall before the delivery of the baby. This occurs to some degree in about 1 of every 150 pregnancies.\nThe exact cause of placental abruption is unknown. However, a number of conditions are commonly associated with placental abruption, including high blood pressure in the mother, severe trauma to the mother's abdomen, cigarette smoking or drug use, and advanced age of the mother.\nThe major symptoms of placental abruption are vaginal bleeding and strong, continuous pain over the uterus and sometimes across the back. Bleeding may be as slight as a tablespoon or extremely heavy. In some cases, no bleeding is visible, and the only symptom is pain. If blood loss is great, the woman experiences rapid heartbeat, difficulty breathing, fainting, and even shock.\nThe diagnosis of placental abruption is made on the basis of the woman's history and the doctor's findings of blood in the vagina and a tender, painful uterus. No specific tests can diagnose placental abruption. In most cases, even the findings on ultrasound are normal.\nBleeding associated with a placental abruption may be extremely heavy and, without rapid treatment, may lead to death of both the mother and the fetus. Even if the mother does not bleed heavily, the placenta may separate from the wall of the uterus to an extent that the fetus does not receive a sufficient oxygen supply to survive. In some cases, the mother's blood may fail to clot normally, leading to even more profuse vaginal bleeding.\nThe treatment of placental abruption may be either delayed or active. If vaginal bleeding is slight or has stopped and the fetus remains unharmed, the mother is admitted to the hospital for observation until all signs of placental abruption have stopped. If, on the other hand, vaginal bleeding is heavy or the fetus shows signs of lack of oxygen, delivery must occur quickly. A mother who is already in labor is monitored closely and may expect to give birth vaginally if she and the fetus remain stable. In the case of heavy bleeding, a cesarean section is performed immediately. Before or after delivery, the mother may require a blood transfusion if she experiences severe blood loss.\nEach of these conditions can lead to a cesarean section. Continue reading to find out more about this extremely safe procedure.\nCesarean section is necessary when a normal birth would endanger either the mother or the baby. This can be due to the size and position of the baby, the presence of bacteria, or because of multiple births. There are two types of cesaren section, but modern medicine has made both of them extremely safe procedures.\nCesarean section is the delivery of a baby by cutting through the abdominal wall and uterus and removing the baby through these incisions. Almost 30 percent of all births in the United States are by cesarean section.\nCesarean section is performed when delivery of the baby is necessary and when a vaginal delivery would cause injury to either the mother or the baby. Some of the specific reasons for a cesarean section include the following:\nTo save the baby's life when problems with the placenta or the umbilical cord cut off the blood supply to the baby (This event is often detected when abnormal heart rate patterns appear on a fetal monitor.)\nTo deliver the baby if the mother is unable to give birth after a long labor, in most cases because the baby is too large to pass through the pelvis\nTo prevent infection of the baby from dangerous bacteria in the surrounding amniotic fluid or a dangerous vaginal or cervical infection\nTo prevent injury to the baby during a breech birth, when the baby would emerge buttocks or feet first through the vagina rather than head first (Many obstetricians believe that all breech births in first-time mothers and all premature breech births require cesarean delivery.)\nTo treat disease of the mother or the baby that can be treated better if birth occurs as soon as possible\nTo prevent the chance of rupture of the uterus during labor if the mother has had a previous cesarean section, especially of the classical type\nTo deliver multiple pregnancies involving three or more fetuses\nTwo types of cesarean section are performed:\nIn the classical cesarean section, a vertical cut is made directly down the center of the uterus in its thick upper section. The incision on the skin may be horizontal or vertical. This operation is generally performed only if the baby is lying in an abnormal position or if the placenta is in an abnormally low position in the cavity of the uterus. With this type of cesarean section, more bleeding occurs than with other methods, the incision is more difficult to repair, and the uterus is more likely to rupture during a future pregnancy. For these reasons, the classical cesarean section is seldom used today unless there are specific reasons for its use.\nThe lower-segment cesarean section is the more commonly performed operation. Here, a horizontal incision is made in the lower, thinner portion of the uterus. The incision made on the skin may be smile-shaped (the \"bikini\" incision) near the lower part of the abdomen.\nTo minimize risks associated with a cesarean section, the operation should be performed only by a skilled obstetrician, accompanied by an anesthesiologist to administer anesthesia to the mother. In some cases, a pediatrician may also participate to take care of the baby after birth.\nRisks associated with cesarean section include possible infection, excessive bleeding, and dangerous blood clots that may enter the blood circulation.\nFurther, the operation may be inconvenient for the mother, requiring her to stay in the hospital at least two or three days instead of going home with the baby soon after a vaginal delivery. And although the use of general anesthesia is now uncommon with cesarean section, if it was used, a woman may not be able to see the baby for a number of hours after delivery. (Breast-feeding following cesarean section should not present a problem if adequate pain relief is provided and maintained for the mother.)\nShe will have pain from the operative incision, and once she arrives home, she will need to restrict her activity for a while. It takes up to six weeks for complete healing of the incision.\nOf course, all these inconveniences are small if the result is a healthy mother and a healthy baby. And today, fortunately, cesarean section is an extremely safe operation because of improved antibiotics and better anesthesia.\nIn the past, women undergoing cesarean section have been separated from their husbands during surgery, and as a result have often expressed negative feelings of isolation and inadequacy for having failed to accomplish a vaginal delivery. To assist these parents and prevent this from happening to others, many childbirth instructors provide couples with more information about cesarean section.\nIn many hospitals, husbands are allowed to remain with their wives during the operation. Generally, allowing fathers in the operating room has not caused problems, and women who have undergone cesarean section with their husbands at their sides have shared and enjoyed the birth experience in a far more positive way.\nVaginal Birth After Cesarean Section\nIn the past, a firm rule in obstetrics was \"once a section, always a section.\" More recently, obstetricians have found that many women with a previous cesarean section can have a safe vaginal delivery in a subsequent pregnancy. To minimize the risks of rupture of the uterine scar during labor, certain criteria must be met: The previous cesarean must have been only the lower-segment type; the mother's pelvis must be of normal size; and the indication for the previous cesarean should not exist with the present pregnancy.\nWhile cesarean sections do not typically affect a baby long-term, birth defects can be lifelong conditions. On the next page you'll learn what some of the more common birth defects are.\nAll expectant parents dream of having normal, healthy children. Unfortunately, sometimes this does not happen. Although most babies are born normal and whole, about 3 percent are born with some form of abnormality. Fortunately, about half of these imperfect babies have only minor defects that can be easily corrected, leaving no trace. In the other half, however, the defect may be severe and even life-threatening.\nBirth defects, also called congenital anomalies, can affect nearly every organ of the baby's body. In some cases, these defects are visible on the surface of the body; in other cases, the defects involve internal organs, such as the heart or intestines. Another type of defect, called an inborn error of metabolism, is not visible but rather is an abnormality of the chemical system of the body in which normal chemical reactions in certain organs cannot occur.\nThe following is a list of the most common serious birth defects:\nHead and face: Hydrocephalus (an abnormally large head due to accumulation of fluid), microcephaly (an abnormally small head), cleft lip and cleft palate (an abnormal opening in the lip and the roof of the mouth)\nHeart: Congenital heart disease (a variety of different defects in the valves and walls of the heart)\nLungs: Absence of one lung, abnormal lung development\nStomach and intestines: Abnormal blockage\nAbdominal wall: An opening through the navel or a large defect that causes the intestines to protrude\nKidneys: Absence of one or both kidneys, large cysts in the kidneys, developmental abnormalities of the kidneys (such as variations in structure)\nBack: Spina bifida (an abnormal opening in the backbone in which nerves are contained in a thin, saclike structure)\nArms and legs: Absence of fingers or toes, fused fingers or toes, total absence of an arm or leg, clubfoot (an abnormal inward turning of the foot)\nLittle is known about the cause of most congenital anomalies. Heredity plays a role in some cases; some families have several members with similar abnormalities. Certain drugs, environmental pollutants, toxins, and high doses of radiation cause specific abnormalities. Certain infections in the mother -- the most significant of these is German measles (rubella) -- may cause multiple severe abnormalities. The mother's heavy drinking during pregnancy can cause fetal alcohol syndrome. In most cases, however, the exact reason for the abnormality is not known and probably derives from a disturbance in the normal organ development of the fetus.\nThe ability to detect congenital abnormalities before birth is a relatively recent medical achievement. In addition to allowing some couples to terminate an abnormal pregnancy, it has enabled others who may be at risk of having abnormal offspring to continue a pregnancy knowing the fetus is normal.\nDuring the first prenatal visit, the doctor obtains a thorough history of both parents, including age, race, ethnic background, and previous abnormal conditions in the family. This information is used to determine if testing for an abnormal fetus is necessary. The following tests detect specific abnormalities:\nUltrasonography: detects hydrocephalus, microcephaly, spina bifida, tumors, heart defects, intestinal blockage, and absence of an arm or leg.\nBlood tests: The alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) test (the most commonly used blood test to detect fetal abnormality) helps detect spina bifida.\nAmniocentesis: detects chromosome abnormalities, spina bifida, and nearly 100 chemical disorders in the fetus.\nChorionic villus sampling (CVS): detects the same chromosomal abnormalities as amniocentesis, but the test can be performed earlier in the pregnancy.\nOnce an abnormality of the fetus has been detected, the parents must make a decision to either terminate or continue the pregnancy. However, the many remarkable advances in medical and surgical care can wholly cure many birth abnormalities considered very serious a few decades ago. Many heart defects, intestinal obstructions, and abnormalities of the abdominal wall can be corrected surgically, and those children born with them can expect to lead normal and healthy lives.\nA pediatrician and a surgeon should describe to the parents the extent of the fetal abnormality and the chances of correcting it. Research currently underway may eventually enable surgical correction of certain types of congenital abnormalities while the fetus is still in the uterus.\nFortunately, in most cases, birth defects do not repeat themselves in future pregnancies. Parents with one abnormal child have an average risk of less than 5 percent of having another child with the same abnormality. If, however, the defect is thought to be inherited from one parent, a specific pattern of this abnormality may be repeating itself. Before the parents of an abnormal child plan another pregnancy, they should meet with a doctor skilled in genetics and fetal abnormalities to discuss the risks of abnormalities appearing again.\nEffect on the Parents\nThe birth of a physically abnormal child can produce feelings of shock, disbelief, sadness, and even anger in the parents. All members of the family are in some way affected by the birth. The parents must create a mutual support system to cope with this crisis. Gradually, the parents resolve their grief and become as closely attached to this child as they would to any other.\nGenes, disease, and alcohol use can all contribute to abnormal development of a fetus. Continue reading to find out how a fetus also can be affected if its blood is incompatible with the mother's.\nBecause not everyone has the substance know as the Rh factor, it becomes an issue during pregnancy. While it may seem counterintuitive, the problem arises when the mother is Rh-negative and her fetus is Rh-positive, and the problem can affect a future fetus as well. A simple injection can guard against life-threatening conditions in a fetus.\nApproximately 90 percent of people are born with a substance on their blood cells known as the Rh factor, so called because a similar substance is found on the blood cells of rhesus monkeys. Individuals who have this factor on their blood cells are called Rh-positive; those without it are called Rh-negative. The presence of the Rh factor is inherited from one's parents.\nProblems can occur in the fetus if the mother is Rh-negative and the fetus is Rh-positive. Normally, some fetal blood escapes from the placenta and enters the mother's blood. If both the mother and fetus are Rh-positive, this leakage of fetal blood causes no problems. However, since this fetal blood containing the Rh factor is a foreign substance to a mother who is Rh-negative, the mother's body forms antibodies against the Rh factor.\nThe body normally forms antibodies in response to foreign substances -- usually bacteria and viruses that may be harmful. These antibodies act by destroying the foreign substance, thus protecting the body against their harmful effects. A person who forms antibodies against a substance is called sensitized to that particular substance.\nIf the mother forms these antibodies against Rh-positive blood, the antibodies cross from the mother into the fetus and start destroying fetal blood cells. This leads to a serious condition in the fetus called erythroblastosis, which may lead to anemia, heart failure, and even stillbirth.\nWhen an Rh-negative mother becomes sensitized, it is usually at the time of the birth of her first Rh-positive baby. This baby is generally unaffected. But the mother keeps her antibodies against Rh-positive blood for life. If she has another pregnancy with an Rh-positive fetus, this fetus may be affected.\nDuring early pregnancy, the doctor performs a blood test to determine if the mother has Rh-positive or Rh-negative blood. If the mother is Rh-negative, the father is also tested to determine his Rh factor. If he is Rh-positive, the baby may be Rh-positive as well.\nAs a precaution, to prevent the mother from becoming sensitized to Rh-positive blood, her doctor may recommend she receive an injection of a substance called human anti-Rh immune globulin at 28 weeks of pregnancy. If her baby is found at birth to be Rh-positive, the mother will receive another injection within two days of delivery.\nThe human anti-Rh immune globulin prevents the mother's body from developing Rh antibodies that would cause complications. An injection may also be given if the mother has an amniocentesis, a miscarriage, or an ectopic pregnancy. If it is found that the mother has already developed Rh antibodies, the pregnancy is closely monitored to determine if blood transfusions are necessary.\nThe Rh factor is an issue only during pregnancy. On the next page you'll learn about diseases that are either exclusive to pregnancy or more pronounced during this time.\nSeveral diseases are more pronounced during pregnancy, and several more affect only pregnant women. Diabetes is no longer a life-threatening complication, but can lead to abnormally small babies.\nThe majority of women enter pregnancy healthy and remain so until delivery of the baby. Aside from a variety of minor problems -- for example, backache, morning sickness, and constipation -- the woman generally tolerates the many changes in her body that result from pregnancy. In some cases, however, either the mother enters pregnancy with a medical problem or a problem develops during pregnancy. Some of these conditions affect only the mother, while others may affect both mother and baby.\nToxemia of pregnancy is a severe condition that sometimes occurs in the latter weeks of pregnancy. It is characterized by high blood pressure; swelling of the hands, feet, and face; and an excessive amount of protein in the urine. If the condition is allowed to worsen, the mother may experience convulsions and coma, and the baby may be stillborn.\nThe term toxemia is actually a misnomer from the days when it was thought that the condition was caused by toxic (poisonous) substances in the blood. The illness is more accurately called preeclampsia before the convulsive stage and eclampsia afterward.\nThe causes of preeclampsia and eclampsia are not clearly understood. They tend to develop more often in women who are having their first baby, especially teenage mothers and women from lower socioeconomic groups. One theory proposes that certain dietary deficiencies may be the cause of some cases. Also, there is the possibility that some forms of preeclampsia and eclampsia are the result of deficiency of blood flow in the uterus.\nThe symptoms of toxemia of pregnancy (which may lead to death if not treated) are divided into three stages, each progressively more serious:\nMild preeclampsia symptoms include edema (puffiness under the skin due to fluid accumulation in the body tissues, often noted around the ankles), mild elevation of blood pressure, and the presence of small amounts of protein in the urine.\nSevere preeclampsia symptoms include extreme edema, extreme elevation of blood pressure, the presence of large amounts of protein in the urine, headache, dizziness, double vision, nausea, vomiting, and severe pain in the right upper portion of the abdomen.\nEclampsia symptoms include convulsions and coma.\nPreeclampsia and eclampsia cannot be completely cured until the pregnancy is over. Until that time, treatment includes the control of high blood pressure and the intravenous administration of drugs to prevent convulsions. Drugs may also be given to stimulate the production of urine. In some severe cases, early delivery of the baby is needed to ensure the survival of the mother.\nThere is no known preventive for toxemia of pregnancy. Though the restriction of salt in the diet may help reduce swelling, it does not prevent the onset of high blood pressure or the appearance of protein in the urine. During prenatal visits, the doctor routinely checks the woman's weight, blood pressure, and urine. If toxemia is detected early, complications may be reduced.\nLearn about other medical conditions during pregnancy next.\nDiseases During Pregnancy\nAlthough the incidence of heart disease among women in their childbearing years has declined dramatically in recent years, it still remains one of the major causes of death in pregnant women. Most women with known heart disease withstand pregnancy without any problems. However, in some cases in which the heart muscle or valves are seriously diseased, the added strain normally placed on the heart during pregnancy may lead to heart failure and even death. For this reason, any woman who knows that she has a heart problem should check with her doctor before attempting to become pregnant.\nThe most common disease of the kidneys during pregnancy is pyelonephritis, a bacterial infection of the kidney. This can occur when an infection of the bladder allows bacteria to travel up to the kidneys. Symptoms include fever, severe low back pain, and chills. It is important to treat pyelonephritis quickly because it may cause a pregnant woman to go into premature labor. All instances of severe low back pain and fever should be reported to the doctor immediately.\nWomen who have severe kidney disease before pregnancy can have many serious problems during pregnancy. Extremely high blood pressure and kidney failure (inability to produce urine) are life-threatening complications for both the mother and the fetus. Some women with severe kidney disease may be advised not to become pregnant. Consult your doctor if you have any questions.\nBefore the discovery of insulin for the treatment of diabetes, women with diabetes who became pregnant either miscarried or the pregnancy resulted in the death of the mother and baby. Today, a diabetic woman can expect to deliver a healthy, normal baby.\nEven though medical care of the diabetic woman has improved greatly in the last decade, a variety of serious problems may be associated with pregnancy, including an increased chance of preeclampsia, stillbirth, and abnormally small babies.\nFor these reasons, it is important for a diabetic woman to achieve excellent glucose control prior to conception to decrease her risks for complications associated with pregnancy. Once pregnant, the diabetic woman should expect more frequent prenatal office visits and more laboratory testing. It is important for her to maintain a strict diet, exercise appropriately, and take her insulin at all the prescribed times.\nAnother form of diabetes -- called gestational, or pregnancy-induced, diabetes -- affects women only during pregnancy. In this disorder, women who were not diabetic before pregnancy display signs of diabetes only when they are pregnant.\nDuring routine prenatal office visits, the pregnant woman's urine is always tested for the presence of sugar, or glucose (urine should normally contain no glucose). If sugar appears in the urine, the doctor performs a blood test to see if the woman's blood sugar level is abnormally high. In addition, most physicians now routinely perform a blood test called a glucose challenge test at 24 to 28 weeks of pregnancy, even if urine tests have been normal. If the results show elevated levels, a more complex test is done to confirm the diagnosis.\nWomen with pregnancy-induced diabetes are generally treated with a special diet that restricts their intake of sugar and carbohydrates. Insulin is sometimes necessary to bring the blood sugar level down to normal.\nSince women with pregnancy-induced diabetes also are at a greater risk for preeclampsia and stillbirth, they can expect to have more frequent prenatal visits. These women are also at risk of having macrosomic, or very large, babies. About 30 to 40 percent of women who develop gestational diabetes go on to develop nongestational diabetes several years after pregnancy. Postpartum weight control can help reduce this risk.\nThe most common digestive system problem affecting pregnant women is hyperemesis gravidarum. In this condition, the woman suffers excessive or abnormal vomiting. This vomiting is more severe than that caused by normal \"morning sickness,\" which usually clears up on its own within a few months. In hyperemesis gravidarum, the vomiting leads to starvation, loss of water in the body, and an imbalance in bodily fluids.\nSymptoms include weight loss and dehydration. The condition is most often treated in the hospital through the use of antivomiting drugs and intravenous feeding. A pregnant woman should not attempt to treat herself with drugs for vomiting without first consulting her doctor.\nLung disease is uncommon in pregnant women with the exception of occasional bouts of cough and congestion associated with the flu or a cold. The most serious lung disease to affect a pregnant woman is asthma. In women who have only mild asthma attacks before pregnancy, their asthma may stay the same, improve, or worsen. In women with severe asthma before pregnancy, symptoms usually worsen during pregnancy. Women with severe asthma are also more likely to have premature labor and small babies. Before a woman with severe asthma attempts to become pregnant, she should consult her doctor.\nFatty liver disease and HELLP syndrome, both of which affect the liver, are rare. Fatty liver disease is generally associated with preeclampsia and occurs in the third trimester of pregnancy. The cause is unknown, but symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and jaundice. Liver failure may result. HELLP syndrome (which is named after its characteristics: Hemolysis, a breakdown of red blood cells; Elevated Liver enzymes; and a Low Platelet count) is a severe form of preeclampsia and is, in part, characterized by liver inflammation. If a woman knows she has liver disease, she should check with her doctor before attempting to become pregnant.\nThe most common nervous system problem in a pregnant woman is headache, generally caused by tension, migraine, or an infection of the sinuses or throat. Simple measures, such as lying down in a quiet room and applying ice packs over the forehead, relieve most simple headaches. However, since a headache may be a symptom of high blood pressure associated with preeclampsia, all severe or persistent headaches should be reported to the doctor immediately.\nNumbness and tingling of the fingers, thighs, and toes are quite common in pregnancy and usually result from retention of water and swelling.\nEpilepsy is the most serious nervous system problem that can affect a pregnant woman. About half of women with epilepsy experience worsening of symptoms during pregnancy. Furthermore, certain drugs commonly used to treat epilepsy may cause birth defects in the baby. Before a woman with epilepsy attempts to become pregnant, she should check with her doctor.\nSeveral types of skin changes are common in pregnant women and result from the normal hormonal changes of pregnancy. Darkening of the skin is common, especially on the face, abdomen, vulva, thighs, and around the nipples. As pregnancy progresses, the palms of the hands often become red, and small spider veins may develop on the arms and face. Stretch marks on the skin of the lower part of the abdomen usually develop late in pregnancy.\nSeveral types of skin diseases occur only in pregnancy. These appear as numerous small, raised bumps that are usually extremely itchy. Though these conditions are rarely serious, report any unusual skin changes or itching to your doctor.\nLearn about infectious diseases during pregnancy on the next page.\nNewborns can suffer greatly from infectious diseases in the mother.\nThough most common infectious diseases, such as colds and the flu, have no effect on pregnancy, some diseases transmitted by other people may have very serious effects on the baby.\nThe herpes virus is responsible for frequent, painful ulcers that may occur in the genital areas of both men and women. A sexually transmitted disease, this virus is spread by direct genital contact.\nThough this infection rarely causes serious problems in the woman, the newborn baby may become seriously infected and die if she comes into contact with an open herpes ulcer during delivery. For this reason, cesarean section is performed if a woman has a herpes ulcer in the genital region when she is in labor. If a woman knows she has had herpes, it is important that she tell her doctor, so he or she carefully examines the genital area during prenatal visits.\nSyphilis is another sexually transmitted disease that may seriously affect the baby. If a mother has an active syphilis infection during pregnancy, the bacteria may enter the baby's bloodstream and cause a variety of abnormalities, including malformations of the heart, eyes, bones, and mouth.\nAs a part of the routine blood testing of the mother during the first prenatal visit, a blood test to detect the presence of syphilis is usually performed. If a pregnant woman thinks she may have acquired syphilis during pregnancy, she should tell her doctor immediately.\nRubella (German measles) is a common infectious disease that usually affects children. The rash and fever of rubella usually pass within a few days, and complete recovery from the infection is the rule. Rubella infection during pregnancy, however, may have many serious effects on the baby, especially if the infection develops early in pregnancy when the organs of the fetus are just beginning to form.\nComplications in the baby may include microcephaly (abnormally small head), mental retardation, seizures, defects in the eyes, heart malformations, and deafness. If a pregnant woman suspects she may have come into contact with someone with rubella, she should report it to her doctor immediately, even if a rash or fever has not yet appeared. The doctor may then perform blood tests to determine if the woman has actually contracted rubella.\nSince rubella infection in pregnancy is serious, a woman who is considering becoming pregnant should undergo testing to see if she is immune to rubella. Usually, if a person has had rubella at one time in her life, she never gets the infection again. If a woman is not immune, most doctors advise that she obtain a rubella vaccination before becoming pregnant.\nToxoplasmosis is another infection that may have serious effects on the baby. The mother may become infected with the Toxoplasma organism if she eats infected raw meat or if she is in close contact with cats infected with Toxoplasma. Babies born to infected mothers may have many serious birth defects, including microcephaly, seizures, and other disorders of the brain, and conditions involving the liver, blood, lungs, and kidneys. To avoid toxoplasmosis, a pregnant woman should always cook meat thoroughly and avoid contact with cat litter boxes.\nThese are all ailments that can occur during pregnancy. On the next page you will learn what conditions to watch out for during labor.\nAbnormalities of Labor\nAs complicated as labor is, there are a number of situations that can arise that would present a danger to the mother, the baby, or both. The baby and the umbilical cord must be correcting positioned in the birth canal throughout the process for a healthy delivery. While a condition as mild as slow labor can be easily corrected with medicine, several other complications are more severe. The remedy for many of these complications is birth by cesarean section.\nLabor is defined as the process by which the uterus rhythmically contracts and expels the baby and placenta. Labor is a progressive process that generally does not stop until the baby and placenta have been delivered.\nFor a woman pregnant with her first child, the average length of time from the beginning of labor to the delivery of the baby is about 14 hours; for a woman with at least one previous delivery, it is about 8 hours.\nDuring a woman's labor, the doctor examines the cervix periodically (about every two hours) to determine how far it has dilated (widened). Before labor begins, the cervix is closed. When the cervix is fully dilated, it has reached 10 centimeters in diameter (there are 2.54 centimeters per inch). At this point, the baby's head has enough room to move into the vagina and be delivered.\nThe nurse or doctor also checks the baby's heartbeat during labor. Sometimes a special stethoscope called a fetoscope may be used. More commonly today, hospitals use an electronic fetal monitor. With this device, a special microphone is placed on the mother's abdomen above the uterus and secured with a strap. This microphone is connected to the fetal monitor, which amplifies the sound of the heartbeat and records the heart rate on a moving strip of paper. The baby's heart rate during labor is normally in the range of 110 to 160 beats per minute.\nAnother function of the fetal monitor is to record the mother's labor contractions. A special pressure-sensing device is secured to the abdomen with a strap and then connected to the monitor. Each time a labor contraction occurs, it shows up on the monitor paper as a short wave. By watching the monitor, the nurses and the doctor can tell how frequently the mother is having contractions.\nSlow Labor\nSome women may experience abnormally slow labor, which is usually caused by mild or infrequent contractions. The doctor can detect this by looking at the fetal monitor and noting that the cervix is dilating slowly. The usual treatment of slow labor is to give the drug oxytocin (Pitocin) intravenously. Oxytocin speeds up labor contractions and causes them to become stronger.\nIn some cases, the mother may have been in labor for many hours without giving birth. The doctor's examination usually shows that either the cervix has stopped dilating or the baby is still high up in the mother's pelvis. In medical terms, this problem is called failure to progress.\nFailure to progress is usually caused by one of two problems: either the baby is too large to fit through the mother's pelvic bones or the mother's pelvic bones are too small to allow the delivery of even a normal-size baby.\nSince in many cases of failure to progress the baby cannot fit through the pelvis, cesarean section is necessary to ensure a safe delivery.\nProlapse of the Umbilical Cord\nThe umbilical cord is the attachment between the fetus and the placenta. It literally forms the lifeline of the fetus through which it obtains oxygen and nutrients from the mother. During labor, a portion of the umbilical cord may prolapse (fall down) into the vagina before the baby is delivered.\nIf this occurs, the umbilical cord may become compressed between the fetal head and the walls of the mother's pelvis, thereby cutting off the blood supply to the fetus. Unless a vaginal delivery is expected to occur immediately, cesarean section must be performed to save the baby's life.\nAbnormalities of the Fetal Heart Rate\nDuring labor, the fetal heart rate is normally steady. In some situations, however, there may be a decrease, or deceleration, of the heart rate during uterine contractions. Compression of the fetal head against the wall of the mother's pelvis may give a particular pattern of deceleration that is quite normal, especially during the latter parts of labor.\nSerious causes of fetal heart rate deceleration include problems with the placenta and a compressed or pinched-off umbilical cord. Since these decelerations may mean that the fetus is not getting enough oxygen, immediate delivery of the baby -- usually by means of cesarean section -- is necessary.\nThe range of complications that can have severe repurcussions on a mother and baby may seem like they make pregnancy a scary time. But most pregnancies are normal and healthy, and hospitals are well equipped to handle most adverse situations. Knowing what to do in the unlikely event something does go wrong will help you delivery a strong, healthy baby.\nExcessive bleeding or hemorrhage is a serious complication of labor and is usually caused by either placenta previa or placental abruption. Immediate cesarean section is usually necessary to save the life of both the mother and baby.\nIt is not healthy or helpful to dwell on what can go wrong during a pregnancy. However, a little knowledge about pregnancy complications can show you that they are rare, often corrected, and an aspect of pregnancy that all parent have to confront.\nDr. Elizabeth Eden, M.D. is a practicing obstetrician with her own private practice in New York City.

        "raw_content": "Browse the article Skin Tags\nWearing jewelry near skin tags can irritate them. See more pictures of skin problems.\n\u00a9iStockphoto.com/St\u00e9phane Bidouze\nMost people have had some sort of embarrassing skin problem to deal with in their lifetime. You know the names of most of these common conditions -- like acne, warts and blisters -- and probably already have a plan of attack for when they pop up. But there's at least one that many people have trouble identifying, let alone treating: acrochordons.\nCommonly referred to as skin tags, acrochordons are small outgrowths of the skin that affect about 46 percent of the general population [source: Schwartz]. Fortunately, skin tags are relatively harmless and quite common.\nSkin tags form just below the skin's surface. They usually consist of fat, nerve cells, fibers and ducts, all covered by skin [source: Crosta]. What is visible to the naked eye is a raised surface or small bump. Over time, skin tags can become a small mass connected by a stalk of skin, which wiggles as you move [source: Harvard Health Publications] Before you say \"Ew!\" know that skin tags are incredibly small -- usually only 0.08 to 0.19 inches (2 to 5 millimeters) [source: Schwartz].\nSkin tags usually show up in areas of the body where there are skin folds, like armpits or eyelids. They also occur on more remote areas such as on the neckline, below the breasts or in the groin area [source: Crosta]. They occur equally in men and women but more often in adults over 60. Some research has shown that skin tags may be genetic, but that hasn't been definitively proven yet [source: Harvard Health Publications].\nOnce skin tags form, they do not go away on their own. Although they tend to be small, they can grow to the size of large grapes. But the good news is skin tags are not directly associated with a major medical condition and are not life threatening, though their appearance may alarm you if you've never had one [source: Alai]. Learning a little bit about why people get skin tags and how to treat them may help you reduce the likelihood of their occurrence or reoccurrence.\nRead on find out what causes skin tags.\nSkin Tag Causes\nSkin tags are actually a pretty common problem. No one really knows for sure what causes them, but there are several circumstances associated with their appearance. Some researchers believe that skin tags are simply caused by chafing, or skin rubbing against skin [source: Alai]. Other studies, however, also link biological factors such as genetics, hormonal imbalances, resistance to insulin and HPV (human papilloma virus) to skin tags [sources: Schwartz, Crosta].\nEvidence exists to support the various theories. For example, people who are obese are more likely to have skin tags, since they tend to have more skin folds, which can lead to chafing [source: The New York Times Health Guide]. Skin tags are also a common problem for pregnant women, and researchers believe this may be caused by the hormones that manifest themselves during pregnancy, throwing women's body chemistry out of whack [source: Crosta].\nAnother possible cause of skin tags is the illegal use of steroids. The steroids cause skin fibers to bond, which results in the small outgrowths [source: Crosta]. And age, irrespective of weight, also seems to be a factor in many skin tag cases. By the time they are 70 years old, around 59 percent of the population will have experienced a skin tag or two [source: Schwartz].\nEven though skin tags are technically tumors, they are benign. That means they do not turn into cancerous growths [source: Harvard Health Publications]. Therefore, their removal is for cosmetic purposes rather than any health danger.\nIf you want to find out how to get rid of an unwanted skin tag, move on to the next page.\nWatch Out for That Jewelry\nJewelry can cause or irritate skin tags. If skin tags are a problem for you, especially around your neckline, a necklace may be the culprit [source: Harvard Health Publications].\nIf you have a couple of skin tags, you know that they're harmless. But if their presence embarrasses or annoys you, you'll be happy to discover that they can be removed safely. There are a few routes you can take to be tag-free.\nOne option is laser surgery. People who have very large skin tags might choose to have them surgically removed, even though surgery is more time consuming and costly. However, because skin tags are a cosmetic problem and not a reconstructive problem, insurance companies are not likely to pay for the surgery (and anesthesia and other costs involved). Therefore, it's worth considering non-surgical procedures.\nYour doctor can also freeze the tag off with liquid nitrogen [source: University of Illinois Medical Center]. This method is known as cryotherapy. It can be done in a doctor's office rather than a hospital. While it's certainly no day at the spa, cryotherapy is less invasive and more relaxed than surgery. You may experience some pain and blistering after the treatment, but usually people heal quickly. Cauterization is another method of removal, in which the skin tag is burned off at the stalk or base [source: Harvard Health Publications]. But the easiest way for doctors to remove skin tags is to inject a local anesthetic into the area and cut them off with scissors or scalpel [source: Alai].\nThere are also some self-treatments for removal. One method is to tie a piece of floss or other thin string to the stalk of the skin tag, which cuts off its blood supply and causes it to fall off by itself [source: Alai].\nOnce skin tags are removed, there is little chance of their return, and there are little to no scars left behind. However, tags may appear in new areas [source: The New York Times Health Guide]. Read on to find out some ways to treat or prevent skin tags without visiting the doctor.\nFreeze and Go\nThere's a simple reason many people choose cryotherapy for removal of skin tags or other lesions such as warts -- convenience. Cryotherapy requires only a local anesthetic and can be completed much faster than a surgery. Recovery time is shorter, too. Of procedures done in doctor's offices, it is the second-most frequently used for removing skin lesions [source: Kuwahara].\nWhile removing skin tags may be the best choice for some people, it isn't really necessary unless the area has become irritated. Some patients might prefer instead to treat them topically or make some life changes to prevent larger or additional growths.\nThe problem with topical treatments is that they can't really do much to keep a person's skin tags from growing bigger or from forming in the first place. If you've had skin tags in the past, and you have an associated risk factor -- for example, if you're overweight, over 60 or have diabetes -- you're very likely to have more of these growths in the future [source: Alai].\nAlso, there is no topical cream that can get rid of skin tags as quickly as cryotherapy or the use of a scalpel. However, there are a number of products that claim to cure skin tags. Many of these contain herbal remedies such as castor oil, apple cider vinegar or tea tree oil, and their goal is to eventually dry out the skin tag and cause it to fall off. But these approaches, when they work, reportedly take weeks to eliminate the skin tag, whereas a doctor's visit for medical treatment takes only about 20 minutes [source: Skin Tag Help].\nSince chafing is one of the assumed causes, one way to treat skin tags is to keep the skin free of anything that could rub against it. Wearing loose clothing made of soft fabric could help reduce skin irritation and, consequently, skin tags. Even if tags have already formed, it's important to prevent them from being repeatedly chafed, which could lead to bleeding and pain [source: Alai]. As long as you can safely keep that irritation in check, it's totally up to you whether or not you decide to have a skin tag permanently removed.\nRead on for much more information about treating your skin.\nCareful with the Herbs\nAny treatment or procedure done to eliminate a skin lesion is going to have some element of risk or possible side effect. However, people often hear the word \"herbal,\" and assume it means a product is completely safe and gentle. But even using something like tea tree oil or creams that incorporate medicinal plants can be risky. Many of these treatments should not be used by pregnant women or nursing mothers, and several carry warnings about being used near the eyes [source: Skin Tag Help].\nAlai, Nili. \"Skin Tag.\" MedicineNet.com.

See more pictures of skin problems.\n\u00a9 2009 HowStuffWorks Photos/iStockphoto.com/Arman Zhenikeyev\nThroughout your life you've probably noticed various bumps coming and going on your skin. When you're younger these bumps can be acne, an allergic reaction or an infection like the chicken pox. However, there is a skin condition known as xanthoma that may be masquerading as acne or an allergic reaction. This exotic-sounding affliction is actually pretty common. Xanthomas are bumps that form when fat collects in pockets under the skin, and usually occurs in those over the age of 40. These bumps can pop up anywhere on your body but are most frequently found near the eyes, hands, feet and joints [sources: Lehrer, Fair].\nXanthomas are usually painless, but they can be unsightly. These bumps often appear yellow to red in color, occur in clusters and come in a variety of sizes, ranging from very small to larger than several inches. There are several types of xanthomas and each has it's own specific features and locations. The most common kind of xanthoma is xanthelasma palpebrarum which usually appears as a yellow, velvety bump on the eyelids. Tuberous xanthomas are firm, reddish-yellow bumps that usually form on pressure areas like the elbows and knees. Eruptive xanthomas are also red-yellow in color and these often occur in clusters on the buttocks or shoulders. Unlike most xanthomas, this type can be painful and itch. [source: Fair]. Because of their specific features and locations, xanthomas are often diagnosed by physicial exam but a biopsy can confirm a diagnosis if there are any doubts.\nAlthough xanthomas themselves do not pose a medical threat, they are usually a sign of another medical disorder, so notify your doctor if think you spot one. Often their presence is due to a problem metabolizing lipids, or fats. When lipids aren't metabolized quickly enough, they can coalesce underneath the skin as xanthomas [sources: Lehrer, Fair]. Because a lipid disorder could be a serious threat to your health, discussing xanthomas with your doctor is very important.\nYou might be wondering what causes xanthomas. To learn more about the metabolic disorders that cause xanthomas, read on.\nCause of Xanthomas\nXanthomas are a symptom of an excess of lipids in the blood, commonly referred to as high cholesterol. So xanthomas are caused by high cholesterol but what causes high cholesterol?\nHigh cholesterol is caused by a number of factors, some that you can control, and others that you can't. Some conditions, like diabetes, heart disease and hypothyroidism, can cause high cholesterol [sources: Lehrer, WebMD]. Many people end up with high cholesterol due to poor lifestyle choices, like eating a fatty diet, never setting foot in a gym, being overweight, smoking a pack a day or a combination of all of them. Those medications you're taking to help other ailments may be contributing to your high cholesterol. Common drugs known to raise cholesterol levels include thiazide diuretics, estrogen, corticosterioids and beta blockers.\nBefore you beat yourself up however, high cholesterol can be caused by things you can't change. There are those that are genetically predisposed to have a higher cholesterol level. If other people in your family have been diagnosed with high cholesterol, you may also be at risk, so be sure to inform your doctor if high cholesterol runs in your family. While it is rare, some have an inherited lipid disorder and their bodies' don't handle cholesterol the way a normal, healthy body would. [source: WebMD].\nAs with many conditions, prevention is the best treatment. To learn more about treating xanthomas, move on to the next page.\nXanthomas and Diabetes\nIf you have diabetes, keep an eye out for small, hard, itchy and yellowish-red bumps on your skin. These types of bumps are called eruptive xanthomatosis. This type of xanthoma is a sign of uncontrolled diabetes. This occurs more often in people with type I diabetes than in those with type II, and more often in men. The xanthomas should disappear when insulin levels return to normal [source: American Diabetes Association].\nTreating Xanthomas\nBecause xanthomas are usually caused by high cholesterol, the best way to treat them it is to treat the high cholesterol. First, if your high cholesterol is a result of another disorder, like diabetes, you need to get this disorder under control [source: Lehrer]. Those without any of the disorders that cause high cholesterol should focus on lifestyle changes, beginning with diet. Foods containing trans or saturated fats tend to raise cholesterol levels in the body. This means you shouldn't overindulge in meat and dairy products, and you should avoid processed foods. Eating right isn't the only way to help prevent high cholesterol. Physical activity and weight loss is a big way to lower, or even prevent, high cholesterol. After all, a healthy, lean body functions much better than one stuck on the couch with a bag of chips. Finally, put that pack of cigarettes down, it helps lower your cholesterol and can make it a lot easier to catch your breath after a workout [source: WebMD].\nYour doctor also might recommend medications to lower your lipid levels. While many of these medications have been proven successful, there has been little research about how their usage directly relates to decreasing xanthomas. Some xanthomas disappear within a few weeks after starting medication while others may take years or never resolve at all. Some xanthomas may even go away without any treatment [source: Fair].\nIf xanthomas do not disappear after treating high lipid levels, there are some topical or surgical procedures available. You should note, however, that xanthomas can reappear even after surgical removal [source: Lehrer, Fair]. Discuss the various options with your doctor to decide what is best for your condition and to how to become xanthoma-free.\nVisit the links on the next page for more information.\nNot Just Under the Knife\nIf you and your doctor decide to remove xanthomas surgically, there are several options available. The least invasive is a topical treatment involving an acid application [source: Fair]. Surgery via excision is the most invasive, as the xanthoma is actually cut out of your skin with a sharp tool. Laser surgery is another option, which uses beams of light, as opposed to a sharp instrument. Again, discussing with your doctor what the procedure involves and outcomes of each will help you select the best form of treatment [sources: Fair, Healthline].\nAmerican Diabetes Association. \"Skin Complications.\" (Accessed 8/10/2009) http://www.diabetes.org/for-parents-and-kids/what-is-diabetes/skin-complications.jsp\nFair, Kevaghn P. \"Xanthomas.\" eMedicine.

        "title": "ONC: Artificial Intelligence Has Potential to Reshape Healthcare",
        "raw_content": "Artificial intelligence could revolutionize healthcare over the next few decades, but only if stakeholders focus on building the right data-driven foundations now.\nJanuary 19, 2018 - Artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly important role in healthcare analytics and will continue to dramatically influence the development of clinical decision support and business intelligence, says a new report by JASON, commissioned by the ONC.\nArtificial intelligence, especially the branch of computer science known as deep neural networks or deep learning, has the potential to drastically improve the way clinicians and patients interact with data \u2013 if the industry focuses on cutting through the hype and implementing strong underlying governance and interoperability principles at the beginning of its development.\n\u201cThe rapid digitization of health data through the use of heath information technology (health IT) in the United States has created major opportunities in the use of AI,\u201d wrote a team of officials from the ONC, AHRQ, and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in an accompanying blog post.\n\u201cInnovators and experts see potential in using digital health data to improve healthcare and health outcomes from the home to the clinic to the community. Yet, current AI is powered and limited by its access to digital data. With a range of health-related data sets, AI could potentially help improve the health of Americans.\u201d\nHealth data is abundant, but it is also frequently locked away in siloes or proprietary formats that make it difficult to combine with external sources. Privacy concerns and competing business initiatives also tend to discourage organizations from sharing their data assets for research purposes, leaving AI and machine learning experts without the fuel they need to make the most of their algorithms and tools.\nREAD MORE: Understanding the Basics of Clinical Decision Support Systems\nTo better understand how to address these barriers, ONC asked JASON to lay out the opportunities, limitations, and potential use cases for AI in the next decade. JASON is an independent association of scientists and academics that has been advising the federal government on technical issues for decades.\n\u201cThe new report\u2026concludes that the broad advances in AI are significant and real,\u201d states the ONC.\n\u201cThe technology sector is witnessing what appears to be important new advances in AI that are bringing a new wave of interest for how it might shape the future of health and healthcare.\u201d\nThe growing availability of data from networked smart devices and increased consumer comfort with ambient computing, mobile apps, and smartphone platforms are creating an environment that is ripe for artificial intelligence to augment healthcare both inside and outside of the clinic, JASON added.\nStudy after study from both academic institutes and private companies are also proving that artificial intelligence and machine learning have promising applications for clinical decision support within the traditional healthcare setting.\nThe report cites several intriguing projects that leverage AI as the basis for advanced clinical decision support, such as using imaging analytics to aid early screenings for diabetic retinopathy and classifying skin cancers based on a combination of images, biopsies, and expert input.\nDeep learning may be a particularly effective way to deliver these enhanced decision support capabilities for cancers and other diseases. By mimicking the decision-making logic of the human brain and harnessing multiple layers of decision making that refine their conclusions based on the output of the previous layer, deep learning and neural networks offer an intricate and increasingly accurate way to classify images, text, and other clinical data.\nIn addition to focusing on traditional clinical data, AI researchers are increasingly integrating mHealth tools and devices into clinical trials to support data collection. Consumer-facing applications backed by serious analytics prowess are now available to monitor clinical factors like asthma management, Parkinson\u2019s tremors, and heart conditions, among others.\n\u201cRevolutionary changes in health and health care are already beginning in the use of smart devices to monitor individual health,\u201d observed the report. \u201cMobile devices will create massive datasets that may open new possibilities in the development of AI-based health and health care tools.\u201d\nMobile applications and devices could provide a very rich source of data for large scale analytics, JASON says, but ensuring that the data is trustworthy, accurate, and useful no matter what its origin is a very broad and complex problem.\nCaution is called for when developing and promoting consumer-facing applications and tools. Without an emphasis on standards and transparency, it will be very easy for companies to be less-than-scrupulous with their offerings.\n\u201cConsider an example for skin cancer detection,\u201d the report says. \u201cComputer-aided automated skin cancer detection was demonstrated on biopsy-proven clinical images and tested against 21 dermatologists. In parallel, online services already exist for remote dermatologist diagnosis of online-submitted images of skin moles.\u201d\n\u201cWe could imagine a scam service asking patients to submit self-taken skin mole images along with payment for an automated \u2018quack\u2019 diagnosis in return, one that did not actually use any validated classification scheme. More likely, the methods used by any one company may be hidden or obscure, meaning the user has no way to judge the soundness of the company.\u201d\nThe healthcare industry will need to focus on delivering trustworthy and validated patient education resources that help them identify AI-driven applications that provide real utility.\nJASON notes that the FDA has been closely monitoring the development of devices, applications, and their related business models, and may soon issue additional guidance on how to create useful tools that meet consumer and clinical standards.\nAt the same time, artificial intelligence could jumpstart the growing interest in crowdsourcing and citizen science, where the public contributes their knowledge or personal computing power to solve problems too large and complex for any individual organization to tackle.\n\u201c[Crowdsourcing] competitions could help accelerate new AI algorithm development, and an understanding of the biases and errors implicit to health data,\u201d says the report.\n\u201cIn cases where datasets are noisy, limited in number or scope, or otherwise not yet amenable to robust and autonomous computational processing, citizen science may be an approach to develop data sources.\u201d\nCollective contributions, whether from the public or from coalitions of academic and healthcare providers organizations, will be crucial for developing the critical mass of data required to support advanced AI analytics tools.\nDevelopers and researchers need access to high-quality training data, which has been cleaned, validated, and labeled by experts, as well as unlabeled test data to help algorithms refine their skills.\n\u201cAn aspirational goal for health and health care is to amass large datasets (labeled and unlabeled) and systematically curated health data so that novel disease correlations can be identified, and people can be matched to the best treatments based on their specific health, life-experiences, and genetic profile,\u201d says JASON.\n\u201cAI holds the promise of integrating all of these data sources to develop medical breakthroughs and new insights on individual health and public health. However, major limiting factors will be the availability and accessibility of high quality data, and the ability of AI algorithms to function effectively and reliability on the complex data streams.\u201d\nEnvironmental and socioeconomic data is particularly scarce at the moment, limiting the ability of AI tools to accurately account for the significant impact of social determinants of health on the development of cancers and their interplay with genetic conditions.\n\u201cFor many diseases, environmental exposures play a bigger role in health outcomes than genetics,\u201d the report observes. \u201cYet, the amount of attention paid to environmental factors is a fraction of the attention that has been devoted to genetics.\nProjects like the Precision Medicine Initiative\u2019s All of Us Research Program may be able to start bridging these gaps by collecting clinical, genomic, and lifestyle data from its participants.\nWith the goal of enrolling at least one million individuals across racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, and clinical lines, All of Us may represent a pathway to solving multiple problems for AI researchers.\nThe data will be standardized and accessible, clinical data will be collected for at least ten years to allow long-term monitoring, and the project prioritizes the integration of environmental and lifestyle data.\nThe nature of the project \u2013 a federal program with no incentive to limit data access to other organizations \u2013 may also help to reduce the traditional barriers of data sharing and interoperability.\nFocusing on expanding access to high-quality and trustworthy data will be vital for the healthcare industry over the next few years, the report concludes.\nWithout laying a foundation of clean, accessible, complete, and multifaceted data governed by meaningful privacy rules and consumer protections, artificial intelligence may not be able to reach its full potential as quickly as could be hoped.\n\u201cOverall, JASON finds that AI is beginning to play a growing role in transformative changes now underway in both health and health care, in and out of the clinical setting,\u201d the report concludes. \u201cAt present the extent of the opportunities and limitations is just being explored.\u201d\nAs consumers and providers become more comfortable with data-driven computing, mobile devices and apps become more common, and data liquidity increases, healthcare organizations and consumers will soon be able to harness the potential of artificial intelligence on a much broader scale.\nPharma, Tech Companies Set to Restructure Healthcare Big Data Market",

        "raw_content": "Longhorn Steakhouse President on Grade-A Leadership\nPresident of LongHorn Steakhouse, Valerie Insignares attributes her success in the restaurant business to her passion, thirst for education, and flexibility\nValerie Insignares, president of LongHorn Steakhouse\nWhen Valerie Insignares was growing up on the southeast side of Chicago with her grandparents, both Mexican immigrants, she developed a deep love for food. She loved the way it brought her family together. \u201cWhen other kids in the neighborhood were playing school, I was playing restaurant,\u201d Insignares says. \u201cI have always known I wanted to be in the business.\u201d\nInsignares\u2019s family valued education above all else. She attended the University of Illinois to study finance, concentrating on speculative markets. Insignares liked knowing exactly how a business handled its money. She interned at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange as a runner in the cattle and hog pits. In her final year as an undergraduate, Insignares met Dr. Phil Garcia, an agricultural professor, who, like Insignares, grew up in an urban environment. He became a valuable mentor and inspired her to get her master\u2019s degree.\nShe was one of just a few female students in her agricultural economics program. Her thesis on managing beef market risk would foretell her future success at Darden Restaurants, the company that owns LongHorn Steakhouse, Olive Garden, and other leading restaurant brands.\nLeveraging her education and experience, Insignares worked in the purchasing department at Kentucky Fried Chicken, in risk management. She was in charge of trading soybean oil, corn, and wheat futures for the company. The position was the start of her willingness to be geographically flexible. \u201cI could have taken a job in Chicago near my family, but I wanted to be involved in the restaurant industry,\u201d Insignares says. \u201cMy willingness to move to different places opened a lot of doors for me.\u201d\nInsignares moved in 1997 to Orlando, FL where she had responsibility for everything except seafood as the director of commodities purchasing for Darden. Using skills she had already learned through college internships, KFC, and subsequent jobs, she was able to impact a large chain by managing the commodities purchasing for a variety of restaurants instead of just one.\nBy 1998, Insignares was ready for a new challenge. She accepted a role as the vice president of distribution for Darden, an area in which she had very little experience. She had to learn to manage people as she was no longer the subject matter expert in this role. Managing distribution, IT, and purchasing, she got to know the people side of the business. She led a cross-functional team to transition the complex distribution system. \u201cKeeping the progress moving forward was of the utmost importance,\u201d Insignares says. \u201cIf we got stuck, it would have put the restaurants\u2019 supply at risk.\u201d\nThe experience inspired her to return to school at the University of Florida where she would earn her MBA. She also got married that year. \u201cPeople said I was crazy going back to school while I was so busy, but without obtaining that level of education, I wouldn\u2019t have been able to climb to where I am today,\u201d Insignares says.\nOlive Garden welcomed Insignares as vice president of operations excellence in 2000. Immersing herself in the business, she went through Darden\u2019s manager-in-training program. She learned how to work the fryer, cut up vegetables, and manage all areas of the restaurants. \u201cI had learned how to be comfortable managing without having to be the expert on everything,\u201d Insignares says. \u201cThe program gave me the opportunity to learn the business from the ground up.\u201d\nBy 2001, Insignares had been promoted to senior vice president of operations, for which she moved to Dallas. From Texas, she led operations in eight southwestern states. Her first daughter was born in Texas in 2003. Continuing to be geographically flexible, Insignares traveled about 80 percent of the time. She was inspired by the diverse, hardworking people staffing the restaurants. \u201cI took it one step at a time and pinched myself along the way,\u201d she says.\nIn 2004, Insignares moved back to Florida to become the executive vice president of operations for Olive Garden. During this time, the chain underwent an aggressive growth phase. Insignares and her team added more than 250 restaurants in seven years. In 2007, Insignares had her second daughter.\nInsignares accepted the newly created position of chief restaurant operations officer (CROO) in 2011. In this role, she helped standardize enterprise operations, such as reviews and bonuses, and redesigned the organizational structure. \u201cWe felt that we needed to reposition our leadership so we were closer to the actual restaurants,\u201d Insignares says. \u201cWe made significant changes across our three large brands to make that happen.\u201d\nInsignares became the president of LongHorn Steakhouse in January of 2013. Darden bought LongHorn in 2007, and while it\u2019s not the biggest chain of steakhouses in the country, Insignares thinks that it can be the best. She was excited to take on a broader leadership role with a strong brand and to be able to craft the vision of the company. Now the company has expanded to 460 restaurants in more than 40 states. She\u2019s proud of the great experiences that the restaurant teams provide guests. \u201cWe want to continue the positive momentum we have gained over the last few years,\u201d she says. \u201cWith culinary creativity and brand recognition, I think we can make LongHorn America\u2019s favorite steakhouse, one restaurant at a time.\u201d",

        "title": "Content, Writing, and Copywriting \u2022",
        "raw_content": "Earn more with your writing by learning how to effectively show clients some of the not so obvious differences between content, writing, and copywriting.\nIn most cases, a writer is to a copywriter what a house painter is to an artist. That\u2019s not to say that you\u2019ll never find a house painter making art, but rather that you\u2019re far more likely to find an artist willing to paint houses. This is because, while both of them can paint, only a copywriter is generally capable of creating art.\nUnfortunately, because writing is the second most common form of communication in the world, chances are that nearly everyone you interact with will be able to do it. This makes it a trivial skill in the eyes of most people, along the likes of breathing, or walking. Of course, put any of those people under water or on a tightrope, and they instantly find new appreciation for the difficulties breathing and walking can present.\nSadly, drowning clients or forcing them work in the circus isn\u2019t likely to earn repeat business, however satisfying it might be at the time. Forgoing those option can make it difficult to effectively demonstrate the differences between simple writing and the complexities of copywriting. This is particularly true if you\u2019re not dealing with an experienced marketing firm, or a knowledgeable client. That said, there are steps you can take to make yourself and your writing shine. It just involves a little panache.\nExplaining The Difference in 15 Minutes\nIf you\u2019re serious about your clients, take them out to lunch. You\u2019ve got nothing to lose, and everything to gain. That\u2019s because there\u2019s nothing better than a menu and a hungry client to effectively demonstrate the difference between generic content, professional writing, and copywriting. It also lets you explain how and why they all work together, and more importantly, when they don\u2019t.\nI recommend either a steak house or a sushi bar, but depending on the client, you might want to go with something else. The important thing is to make sure that food is available that you can apply a copywriting description to. Having more than one client at the table also helps but isn\u2019t necessary.\nFor this exercise, you\u2019re going to explain the food as if you were the waiter. Then it\u2019s just a matter of drawing the comparison between your client\u2019s needs and their order \u2013 all before their lunch arrives. Because they\u2019re hungry, and you\u2019re describing their food in great detail, they\u2019ll positively associate you with the food rush \u2013 especially if you\u2019re good at selling yourself. Just make sure the establishment you select is on par with your skills as a writer. If you\u2019re in DC, I recommend The Old Ebbitt, or Ruth\u2019s Chris Steak House, but anything similarly upper crust will do.\nJust pick whatever steak the client ordered, and offer them three explanations, comparing each one to a particular type of writing. You should have pen and paper, and be good enough to bang this out at the table, or you\u2019ve lost the client.\nYour associated price points should account for the time involved in each. A few minutes for content, which equates to the value menu at McDonald\u2019s, a little longer and more expensive for writing, which isn\u2019t unlike Red Lobster, and then the icing on the cake for the restaurant you\u2019ve chosen. Price points should look a little like this:\nContent ($0.05): Hi, have you decided what you want to order yet?\nWriting ($0.10): I can recommend a perfectly seasoned steak, grilled to perfection, with your choice of two sides. We offer broccoli, fries, potato, or a salad. Which would you like?\nCopywriting ($0.20): I\u2019d like to suggest one of our aged, top shelf cuts of beef. It\u2019s a mouthwatering 8-ounce filet, seasoned with a blend of the freshest herbs, and grilled over a wood fire to seal in the flavor. How would you like it prepared, medium well?\nWhat we\u2019ve done there is give a common, real world example to the difference between each writing style, pairing it with a price point, and the associated results. In this case, the result is a hungry client, hopefully hooked on your tempting description of the steak they ordered. Don\u2019t forget to point out that copywriting is much more than just \u2018per word\u2019 content, and that the $0.20 per word rate is a ground floor. Good copywriting can run upwards of $1000 per page or more \u2013 make sure your client understands this, or you\u2019ll be selling yourself and your talents short.\nThen you can go on to describe another menu dish, such as chicken, in the same tantalizing manner, and lead into co-branding, where you establish several different products under a single brand, expanding your trust pool. With a little practice, you\u2019ll have outstanding success rates at closing new business.\nIf you\u2019re having difficulty, just schedule your meetings before lunch at your client\u2019s place of business, bring a menu, and use the same pitch. Just be prepared to buy them lunch and come clean on the marketing aspect of your pitch. Few things are worse than a hungry and irritable person trapped in a cubicle. If you\u2019re visiting someone in a corner office, then you probably don\u2019t need my advice.\nFor some, getting to this point will take time. Most copywriters are notoriously bad at meeting people, and even worse at closing cold calls or first round meetings. That\u2019s not to say it\u2019s impossible, but rather that it takes work. There is also a level of trust and understanding that needs to be built between client and writer. That can also take time.\nIt\u2019s helpful to take things one step at a time, introducing yourself and services, and demonstrating how what you do will add value to an organization. Treat it like a romance at first. Do a little extra, be polite, and don\u2019t mention things like your early adoption of Bitcoins, or your part time free gambling habit.\nThese four steps are far from the final word on how to go about marketing yourself, but they\u2019re a good start.\nStep One: Build Relationships\nDon\u2019t get me wrong, there\u2019s nothing wrong with inexperienced marketing firms, they just take a little more effort to work with. Likewise, some of the best clients are also the least knowledgeable about the differences in copywriting and writing. This is because capable firms and individuals are usually very focused on what they do, and therefore quite good at it. This is often the reason why they\u2019re not good at writing. Taking the time to work with them usually results in lasting and mutually beneficial relationships.\nStep Two: Demonstrate Results\nOne of the easiest ways to do this is by demonstrating the strengths of both copywriting and writing, as opposed to just focusing on one. By showing how copywriting can build brand, and writing can reinforce that brand, you\u2019re showing how your work will build value. More importantly, help establish brand. Clear, concise, and direct communication is the ticket to accomplishing this and winning the business.\nStep Three: Don\u2019t Be An Artist\nTrue, this article opened up comparing copywriting to art, and it is, but professionals rarely want artists. Let\u2019s face it. Artists are unreliable. They\u2019ve been known to cut off their ears, and in extreme cases, drown clients or force them into the circus. No one wants to hear about your art, and the person paying for it also doesn\u2019t care about it either. They just want results, which loosely translated means profit.\nStep Four: Be Professional, But Be Yourself Too\nAt all times, be professional. If your client invites you out for a drink, then have one. Note the emphasis on having one. Don\u2019t press your client into accepting favors, or at all make them feel manipulated. You\u2019re buying their time for a meeting, just like they\u2019re buying your time for copywriting. Keep it professional and honest. Clients worth maintaining relationships with will appreciate this.\nAs an example, I once interviewed with Latham & Watkins for a low level writing position. I was between jobs, and could have used the work. When it was all said and done, I was told that I was overqualified. The partner who came down to give me the particulars asked if I\u2019d like a drink, and having nothing to lose, I said, \u201cSince we\u2019re all being honest, and it\u2019s late, is a rum and coke out of the question?\u201d\nEveryone had a good laugh, we had drinks, and then the attorney who conducted the interview took me out for a few more drinks. We got along famously, and are friends to this day. I didn\u2019t end up working for them, but it was a springboard into other relationships.\nSo, be professional, and be yourself. Nothing sells copywriting to a client you understand like honesty and sincerity. You never know where opportunity will take you from there.\nOn that note, you\u2019ve got a basic set of tools to market yourself, and can build them into your website or other copywriting platform, enabling you to build a better portfolio, and ultimately better clients.",

        "raw_content": "Adoption is not how things were meant to be.\nDon't get me wrong: adoption is a beautiful picture of love and acceptance. It is a glorious symbol of God's restorative power and unconditional love, offering a stable childhood and bright future to children who have previously experienced rejection and loss.\nBut no one could say it was how things were meant to be. The sad truth is that, in our fallen world, families are battling addictions, abuse, poverty, poor mental health, dysfunctional relationships, non-exemplary parenting in their own childhoods, little support - and most often it is a combination of several of these factors that lead to a child being removed from his birth family.\nSo adoption \u2013 whilst not the ideal \u2013 gives the opportunity for breaking negative generational cycles, and seeks to ensure that the youngest generation are properly cared for, loved and nurtured into human beings who will ultimately be able to make a positive contribution to society.\nThe outworking of this traumatic start to life inevitably bears its impact on the child, his adoptive family, and any person who chooses to walk with him on his life journey. (You can read a bit more about the impact of trauma here.)\nFor starters, the child might have additional needs or complications resulting from substances consumed in utero. An early life without proper nourishment, space to crawl, or limited communication opportunities may also leave their mark, as a child's development plays 'catch-up' for a number of years. A life surrounded by domestic violence, and the heightened stress levels which accompany it, will also take its toll.\nThen there are the less tangible effects of adoption: the emotional, psychological and relational questions which start to rear their ugly heads as the child starts to understand more about themselves and the world. Who am I? Where do I belong? Does anyone love me? Why wasn't I good enough for my birth family to keep?\nThese questions can provoke feelings of guilt, shame, resentment, anger, grief and more in a child or adolescent \u2013 and, in turn, impact upon their relationships with family and friends, their susceptibility to addiction and self-harm, the probability of suffering from mental health issues, and their performance at school. For example, did you know that adopted and fostered children are twenty times more likely to be excluded from school than children who are not?(Source: Adoption UK research, November 2017.)\nYou don't need me to tell you that all of this will impact powerfully on a child's family.\nIn addition to the simple truth that loving, committed parents will always feel their children's distress themselves, we shouldn't forget the additional pressures on parents of endless school meetings regarding their child, frequent appointments with healthcare professionals, struggles to move up the CAMHS waiting list, guilt over any siblings who may be being 'sidelined' and so on. These pressures can put additional strain on a marriage, not to mention relationships with and between siblings.\nIn short, suffering is a non-negotiable part of adopting, or being adopted. It might vary from one family to another, but it is always there to some extent.\nI've painted a pretty bleak picture here. Those of you who are considering adoption or fostering may feel totally discouraged, while those of you who already do it may be thoroughly depressed. It's one thing to believe in a God who loves and welcomes the vulnerable; it's another to choose to bring suffering into your life in this way.\nSo is there any hope?\nThe pat answer would be, \u201cOf course there is! There is Jesus \u2013 and He has the victory!\u201d Ultimately, as a Christian, I believe these words to be true \u2013 but I also know that the true, final victory will come in the next life, not this one.\nWhen caring for vulnerable children, we will undoubtedly experience moments of victory over suffering, but where is the hope when we're not? When we're walking with our children and their struggles? When we're feeling pessimistic about what the future holds for us or our children?\nSo often, when faced with suffering, we look away. We don't want to disrupt our comfortable lives, we worry what others might think, or we fear that we won't cope or make any difference at all.\nBut I find great hope and solace in the life of Jesus. He wasn't afraid to look suffering in the eye. Remember how he looked up at Zacchaeus, that troubled and marginalised man (Luke 19)? Or how he looked at Mary and Martha, and wept with them for their deceased brother, Jesus' friend, Lazarus (John 11:33-35)?\nUltimately, Jesus looked suffering in the eye when he faced the cross. He didn't look away, or choose a more comfortable alternative. If he did, our redemption would not have happened.\nAs we journey with our vulnerable children, we can be assured of Jesus' presence with us, giving us the power to look suffering in the eye.\nWe can also be assured that, just as Jesus' ultimate suffering led to our redemption, the suffering that you or your children may be experiencing right now can be used by God for the redemption and renewal of your child. Until then, we pray \u2013 and ask others around us to pray \u2013 for his character and yours to be shaped and refined through the suffering you are going through.\nConsider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.\u201d (James 1:2-3)\nSuffering, like adoption, is not how things were meant to be. But suffering, through following God's call into adoption or fostering, can be used for good.\nIf you're walking a hard path right now, keep walking. God sees your suffering, and He sees you. He is giving you the power to keep looking suffering in the eye until the day when Jesus' victory eradicates suffering forever. Press on, faithful servant!",

        "raw_content": "SINGAPORE: Activist Groups Make Recommendations for Human Trafficking Bill\nPosted on June 10, 2014 June 8, 2014 by MadGiven\nBy Yeo Sam Jo for The Straits Times on June 3, 2014\u2014\n\u201cIn a joint statement on Tuesday, the Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE) and the Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (HOME) responded to a statement on the matter issued by MP Christopher De Souza and the Inter-Agency Taskforce on Trafficking in Persons.\nGet the full story from The Straits Times.\nHere is the joint statement from the Association of Women for Action and Research and the Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics:\nThe Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE) and the Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (HOME) welcome the drafting of the Trafficking In Persons Bill.\nWe are encouraged by the commitment and efforts of the Interagency Taskforce on Trafficking-in-Persons and Member of Parliament Christopher De Souza to combat trafficking in persons. We are also glad that the Taskforce has taken the feedback of the participants seriously.\nHowever, we would like to address two key areas mentioned in the press release issued by the Taskforce and Mr De Souza on 25 May 2014, namely labour trafficking and victim support.\nLabour trafficking\nMany participants at the public consultations called for stronger protection against labour trafficking and for the specification of indicators of what would constitute trafficking in persons, as distinct from employment law offences \u2013 a concern which has been mentioned in the press release by MP Chris de Souza and the Trafficking-in-Persons Task Force. During the consultations, the response given by the MP and the Task Force is that offences against migrant workers are \u201calready addressed by existing employment laws.\u201d\nTogether with HOME, Project X, Workfair, AWARE has reiterated our concern regarding this matter in a Joint Open Letter on the proposed Bill on 15 April, 2014. As we stated, many of us in civil society who have worked extensively on migrant worker issues frequently encounter cases of deceptive recruitment and severe maltreatment of workers which are not addressed by existing legislation \u2013 i.e. the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act (EFMA).\nWe assert that issues of trafficked and forced labour include the SGD 5,000 security bond, the lack of freedom to change employers, poor protection against long working hours, lack of wage protection, poor enforcement of the Passports Act and the ability of employers to repatriate workers, all of which need to be addressed.\nUnless these issues are considered, the proposed Bill will be not be protecting trafficked and deceptively recruited workers, as it is now contingent on an inadequate EFMA to cover gaps.\nVictim protection and support measures\nThe right to alternative employment and basic medical care should also be considered for provision within the Bill. As mentioned in the Joint Civil Society Statement, we believe that not including the right to work in legislation will leave the victim vulnerable to further victimisation through repatriation or deportation.\nAccording to the press release by the Taskforce and Mr De Souza, these are \u201cbeing provided administratively where merited and can continue to remain so.\u201d This procedure lacks transparency as it is not clear what is meant by \u201cwhere merited\u201d. In response to our concerns about accurate victim identification and support, we appreciate that there will now be \u201cadministrative guidelines\u2026to guide the assessing officer in determining what protection/ support measures to be accorded.\u201d However, we would like to know what these guidelines are and whether they adequately address the needs of victims.\nAs cited in paragraph 12 of the press release, while some respondents had argued that the proposed protection and support measures above are fundamental entitlements and had to be legislated, others felt that not all these measures needed to become law as these should not be seen \u201cas a right\u201d before the status as a victim had yet to be determined.\nAddressing this point, we note from the press release that the Task Force promises \u201crobust and effective ground efforts to\u2026identify victims\u201d, meaning that the status of a victim will be unambiguously identified as a priority. Consequently, there should be no issue about legislating all the protection and support measures in the proposed Bill as there will, presumably, be no prolonged interim period when the status of the victim has yet to be determined.\u201d\nPosted in Government, Human Trafficking, Lawmakers, Singapore\nBRAZIL: Maltese Nun Campaigns Against World Cup Sex Trafficking\nTexas Launches Campaign to Curtail Human Trafficking in State",

        "raw_content": "Astronomy, Astrophysics, milky way, Space, Universe\nFiled Under Astronomy, Astrophysics, dark matter, Milky Way, Space\nUsing the world\u2019s most powerful telescopes, an international team of astronomers has found a massive galaxy that consists almost entirely of dark matter.\nThe galaxy, Dragonfly 44, is located in the nearby Coma constellation and had been overlooked until last year because of its unusual composition: It is a diffuse \u201cblob\u201d about the size of the Milky Way, but with far fewer stars.\n\u201cVery soon after its discovery, we realized this galaxy had to be more than meets the eye. It has so few stars that it would quickly be ripped apart unless something was holding it together,\u201d said Yale University astronomer Pieter van Dokkum, lead author of a paper in the Astrophysical Journal Letters.\nThe dark galaxy Dragonfly 44. The image on the left is from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Only a faint smudge is visible. The image on the right is a long exposure with the Gemini telescope, revealing a large, elongated object. Dragonfly 44 is very faint for its mass and consists almost entirely of dark matter. Credit: Images by Pieter van Dokkum, Roberto Abraham, Gemini, Sloan Digital Sky Survey\nVan Dokkum\u2019s team was able to get a good look at Dragonfly 44 thanks to the W.M. Keck Observatory and the Gemini North telescope, both in Hawaii. Astronomers used observations from Keck, taken over six nights, to measure the velocities of stars in the galaxy. They used the 8-meter Gemini North telescope to reveal a halo of spherical clusters of stars around the galaxy\u2019s core, similar to the halo that surrounds our Milky Way galaxy.\nStar velocities are an indication of the galaxy\u2019s mass, the researchers noted. The faster the stars move, the more mass its galaxy will have.\n\u201cAmazingly, the stars move at velocities that are far greater than expected for such a dim galaxy. It means that Dragonfly 44 has a huge amount of unseen mass,\u201d said co-author Roberto Abraham of the University of Toronto.\nScientists initially spotted Dragonfly 44 with the Dragonfly Telephoto Array, a telescope invented and built by van Dokkum and Abraham.\nDragonfly 44\u2019s mass is estimated to be 1 trillion times the mass of the Sun, or 2 tredecillion kilograms (a 2 followed by 42 zeros), which is similar to the mass of the Milky Way. However, only one-hundredth of 1% of that is in the form of stars and \u201cnormal\u201d matter. The other 99.99% is in the form of dark matter \u2014 a hypothesized material that remains unseen but may make up more than 90% of the universe.\nThe researchers note that finding a galaxy composed mainly of dark matter is not new; ultra-faint dwarf galaxies have similar compositions. But those galaxies were roughly 10,000 times less massive than Dragonfly 44.\n\u201cWe have no idea how galaxies like Dragonfly 44 could have formed,\u201d said Abraham. \u201cThe Gemini data show that a relatively large fraction of the stars is in the form of very compact clusters, and that is probably an important clue. But at the moment we\u2019re just guessing.\u201d\nVan Dokkum, the Sol Goldman Family Professor of Astronomy and Physics at Yale, added: \u201cUltimately what we really want to learn is what dark matter is. The race is on to find massive dark galaxies that are even closer to us than Dragonfly 44, so we can look for feeble signals that may reveal a dark matter particle.\u201d\nReference: Pieter van Dokkum, Roberto Abraham, Jean Brodie, Charlie Conroy, Shany Danieli, Allison Merritt, Lamiya Mowla, Aaron Romanowsky, Jielai Zhang.

ATCA is a new series of open architecture specifications developed for networking, telecommunications and industrial automation computer products. This series of specifications allows networking, communication and storage devices to be integrated on a single platform, greatly lessening the burden of monitoring and management. Adopting the common industry platform, Apacer\u2019s new DDR4 VLP Mini RDIMM memory module fits perfectly into networking and communication equipment, such as router, gateway and switch, and embedded industrial automation equipment, reducing R&D costs and shortening time to market. Its expandability also provides immense convenience in the integration of the networking environment.\nJEDEC-compliant Apacer DDR4 VLP Mini RDIMM memory module measures only 80mm long, which is 60% the length of the standard 133mm RDIMM. Available in 4GB and 8GB capacities, its 1.2V ultra-low operating voltage is up to 30% more power saving. The DDR4 also supports deep power-down mode, reducing close to 50% standby power consumption. Its power efficiency is particularly significant in satisfying the requirement for low power consumption in industrial embedded, networking and server systems. It is equipped with ECC function to ensure memory access reliability and data integrity, and has built-in thermal sensor that monitors temperature changes during memory module operation and optimizes power use. Apacer DDR4 VLP Mini RDIMM memory module demonstrates high-speed transmission and low power consumption within space-constraint systems. Furthermore, its ATCA-compliance allows for system integration, providing the highest quality and stability.\nLearn More: Apacer DDR4 VLP Mini RDIMM memory module",

As we noted at the time, epic hilarity ensued.\nBernanke\u2019s explanation went something like this: while QE does indeed inflate asset prices, poor people have been getting poorer for quite some time, so sure, maybe the Fed contributed a little bit, but probably not a whole lot and besides, the more Keynes the better when it comes to smoothing out the business cycle and a smooth business cycle is good for everyone. Finally, Bernanke patiently explained that to the extent ZIRP punishes savers it\u2019s nonsensical to mention it in any discussion about income inequality because after all, poor people don\u2019t have savings.\nThat description is probably not as generous as it could be, but if you read Bernanke\u2019s post it\u2019s pretty close.\nRead more\u201cWe Made It Wider!\u201d Hank Paulson Bursts Out Laughing When Asked About Wealth Inequality\nToday\u2019s Global Warming Propaganda Is Brought To You By \u2026\n\u2013 Shocking Climate Change Update\n\u2013 Today\u2019s Global Warming Propaganda Is Brought To You By\u2026 (ZeroHedge, June 26, 2014):\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to get a lot hotter in the United States over the next 100 years, and worse going forward,\u201d notes a report cited by Bloomberg.The report, below, fearmongers the mutually assured destruction that will happen if something is not done right now about global warming (despite the implications being out to the year 2200) concluding\u2026 \u201cThe risks are much more perverse and cruel than we saw with the financial crisis, because they accumulate over time\u2026a business-as-usual approach is actually radical risk-taking.\u201d Can you guess who sponsored the report and used those M.A.D. words?\nFirst, the report via Bloomberg,\nRead moreToday\u2019s Global Warming Propaganda Is Brought To You By \u2026\nCategories Environment, Global NewsTags Climate Change, Environment, Global News, Global Warming, Henry Paulson, Michael Bloomberg, propaganda, Tom Steyer1 Comment\nHenry Paulson Burned As Another Electric Car Maker Goes Up In Flames\n\u2013 Hank Paulson Burned As Another Electric Car Maker Goes Up In Flames (ZeroHedge, Mai 1, 2013):\nIt would appear that (apart from Tesla, for now) that any thing related to electric cars is going up in flames. From Fisker\u2019s fubar (and blowing all that hard-earned government funding) and Chevy\u2019s Volt dysphoria to A-123 Systems (the Lithium-Ion battery-maker) and now Coda \u2013 which Yahoo Finance notes was among an emerging crop of California startups seeking to build emission-free electric cars three years ago. After selling just 100 of its $37,250 five-passenger vehicles, Coda filed Chapter 11 today taking a few well-known investors with it. On the bright side, the government was not involved (from what we can tell), but on the even brighter side, none other than former US Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson was among those burned by the company going up in flames (as was Harbinger\u2019s Phil Falcone).Despite the $300 million the company managed to raise, that quickly went and unable to raise an additional $150 million in new funding (we suspect blaming \u2018market conditions\u2019 for its mere $22million raise), Coda had no choice (and Fortress was more than happy to scoop it up and provide the DIP \u2013 the cars will make for fancy paperweights in a collateral liquidation). \u2018Green\u2019 is the new \u2018red\u2019 as it seems when it comes to electric cars, regardless of funding source \u2013 private or public \u2013 it goes up in flames.\nGreen car startup Coda Holdings Inc filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Wednesday after selling just 100 of its all-electric sedans, another example of battery-powered vehicles\u2019 failure to break into the mass market.\n\u2026 exit the auto sector and refocus on energy storage, a far less capital-intensive business.\nRead moreHenry Paulson Burned As Another Electric Car Maker Goes Up In Flames\nCategories Economy, Global NewsTags Bankruptcy, Cars, Economy, Electric Car, Global News, Henry PaulsonLeave a comment\nGerald Celente: Cyprus Looting Is Only The Beginning For Global Elite \u2013 It\u2019s A Banking Takeover Worldwide (Video)\nCategories Economy, Global News, Politics, SocietyTags Alex Jones, Bank of England, Banking, Cyprus, Dictatorship, ECB, EU, Europe, Fascism, Gerald Celente, Global News, Goldman Sachs, Government, Henry Paulson, Mario Draghi, Mark Carney, New World Order, Robert RubinLeave a comment\nMatt Taibbi: Secrets And Lies Of The Bailout (Rolling Stone)\n\u2013 Secrets and Lies of the Bailout (Rolling Stone, Jan 4, 2013):\nRead moreMatt Taibbi: Secrets And Lies Of The Bailout (Rolling Stone)\nCategories Economy, Global News, PoliticsTags AIG, Bailout, Bank of America, Banking, Barack Obama, Ben Bernanke, Bush administration, Citigroup, Economy, FDIC, Fed, Federal Reserve, Financial Crisis, General Motors, George Bush, Global News, GM, Goldman Sachs, Government, Great Depression, Henry Paulson, Jamie Dimon, Larry Summers, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Neil Barofsky, Nomi Prins, Obama administration, Politics, Ponzi schemes, Sheila Bair, Society, TARP, Taxpayers, Timothy Geithner, U.S., Wachovia, Wall Street, Wells Fargo1 Comment\nAudit of NY Fed Reveals Technocrat\u2019s Creation And Cover-Up Of Global Financial Crash\n\u2013 Audit of NY Fed Reveals Technocrat\u2019s Creation and Cover-Up of Global Financial Crash (Occupy Corporatism, Sep 5, 2012):\nSenator Ron Paul has introduced the Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2012 ( HR459) to the upset of Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank. In August, the House of Representatives passed 327 \u2013 98 on a vote which exceeded the necessary 2/3rd majority.\nPaul, who is pushing for \u201ctransparency\u201d in America\u2019s relationship with the Fed, said that Americans are \u201csick and tired of what happened in the bailout and where the wealthy got bailed out and the poor lost their jobs and they lost their homes.\u201d\nThe Audit legislation will direct the Government Accountability Office (GAO), which is an independent congressional agency, to oversee a full review of the Fed\u2019s monetary policy while conducting an audit of them and their decisions will be turned over to the Federal Open Market Committee.\nIn July, the first audit of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) was published by the Government Accountability Office (GAO). According to Senator Bernie Sanders : \u201cAs a result of this audit, we now know that the Federal Reserve provided more than $16 trillion in total financial assistance to some of the largest financial institutions and corporations in the United States and throughout the world. This is a clear case of socialism for the rich and rugged, you\u2019re-on-your-own individualism for everyone else.\u201d\nDuring 2007 \u2013 2010, the Federal Reserve banks provided \u201cassistance\u201d of more than a trillion dollars in \u201cemergency loans\u201d to stabilize the financial system.\nA source in the Deutsche Bank explained that in 2008 our financial and monetary system completely collapsed and since that time the banking cartels have been \u201cpropping up the system\u201d to make it appear as if everything was fine. In reality our stock market and monetary systems are fake; meaning that there is nothing holding them in place except the illusion that they have stabilized since the Stock Market Crash nearly 5 years ago.\nThe Deutsche Bank informant says that the cause for the bailout of the banks was a large sum of cash needed quickly to repay China who had purchased large quantities of mortgage-backed securities that went belly-up when the global scam was realized. When China realized that they had been duped into buying worthless securitized loans which would never be repaid, they demanded the actual property instead. The Chinese were prepared to send their \u201cpeople\u201d to American shores to seize property as allocated to them through the securitized loan contracts.\nRead moreAudit of NY Fed Reveals Technocrat\u2019s Creation And Cover-Up Of Global Financial Crash\nCategories Economy, Global News, PoliticsTags Banking, Ben Bernanke, Bush administration, China, Debt, Economy, EU, Europe, Fed, Federal Reserve, George Bush, Global News, Government, Henry Paulson, Politics, Ron Paul, Society, U.S., Wall StreetLeave a comment\nU.S. Treasury\u2019s Secretive $2.4 TRILLION Fund Guarantee (CNBC)\n\u2013 Treasury\u2019s Secretive $2.4 Trillion Fund Guarantee (CNBC, Aug 9, 2012):\nDetails about a secretive government program to bail out money-market mutual funds are finally coming to light.\nActing without any explicit Congressional authority, the U.S. Treasury guaranteed in excess of $2.4 trillion of money market funds after the giant Reserve Primary Fund \u201cbroke the buck\u201d following the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers. The program, which ended on Sept. 18, 2009, seems to have successfully prevented a panicked run by money-market fund investors.\nBut until now the Treasury has kept the identities of the funds that received government backing and the amounts guaranteed secret. It was not clear how many funds obtained backing or for how much taxpayers were on the hook during the program\u2019s duration.\nRead moreU.S. Treasury\u2019s Secretive $2.4 TRILLION Fund Guarantee (CNBC)\nCategories Economy, Global News, PoliticsTags Bailout, Barack Obama, Bush administration, Economy, George Bush, Global News, Henry Paulson, Lehman Brothers, Obama administration, Politics, Timothy Geithner, Treasury, U.S.Leave a comment",

They lost most of their best engineers and customer support employees during the acquisition and the corporate mindset changed dramatically from customer-centric to profit-centric. Eliminating or changing factory reps will not change their underlying problems.\nThey can replace all of the rep firms they want to. I still will not actively promote a product that is manufactured and/or sold by Schneider. Firms that have the Schneider Electric logo get the leads and the best prices. I can't beat the house. Not to mention, they still don't lead in product develpement the way they used to.\nI am not sure why the industry wants to continue to dance around this issue. Schneider dug this whole all by themselves.\nI have been in the manufacturers rep field for over 15 years and have started 2 different firms. It is a very competitive model and one of the most difficult entities to successfully run. With that said, most all of the Pelco firms had been with Pelco for quite some time and had seen tremendous success during the increasing demand for security products over the 1990's and 2000's. However, I believe that success came with a very harsh price, the industry changed very quickly to IP and both Pelco and it's firms could not address this change. The staff's at both companies struggled to manage this drastic shift and 3rd party VMS products and camera technologies took this opportunity to take significant share away from Pelco. Pelco was king, and the likes of Axis, Milestone, Genetec, Sony, Exacq, and Avigilon ate their lunch. It is somewhat understandable however that after being acquired by Schneider the shareholders would not have liked offloading a significant part of their revenue in hardware to Dell, HP, Iomnis, EMC, IBM, etc. I can only speculate that a large percentage of their revenue was directly tied to these hardware recording platforms.\nTimes change, technology changes, and it all changes faster than it has ever in the past. It doesn't matter if it's Pelco, other mfrs, integration, consulting, or reps. Embrace the change or someone else will eat your lunch.\nVery well said. Don't be afraid of change. Embrace it, or someone will eat your lunch!\nVery well said indeed.\nI just received an email that Pelco is also terminating their relationship with Crockett Sales. Crockett's territory is: TX, OK, AR, LA, MS, West TN\nI have to wonder if Ken Massrey is still a rep?\nYes, Ken Massrey is still a Pelco rep.\nThe closing of the Canadian Service Center in Quebec, and the Manufacturer rep they dumped on us is what drove me and the company I used to work for away from Pelco. And they haven't dumped them, still using Video Experts who will charge you $600 to replace a hard drive that will fail in 6 months, which they won't cover under warranty.\nChris Haun\nIn reply to Daniel Tyrrell | 06/03/14 02:54am\nDaniel, we apologize for what appears to be an unsatisfactory experience with our repair center as well as with our manufacturer\u2019s representative at that time. To set the record straight, we have three service centers in Canada: Richmond (British Columbia), Mississauga (Ontario) and Montreal (Quebec), which are operated by RBE and Video Experts. We regularly evaluate our service center providers and are confident that both are providing competitive pricing and levels of service.\nIn fact, we have actually received great feedback about Video Experts since they came on board. So it is important for us to hear more from you, if you are willing to spend a few minutes talking to us. Can I have Clark Northcott, our National Sales Manager, contact you offline?\nChris Haun / Senior Technical Account Manager / Pelco by Schneider Electric\nApart from the sales numbers, the effect of Acquisition, and the time taken for PELCO to embrace IP, as a product how do the latest Pelco Sarix cameras (which are IP) fare when compared to the likes to Sony, Bosch, Avigilon, Samsung? Also on the video management side, is PELCO more of an NVR-friendly solution than the VMS based approach by Milestone, Genetec and Exacq?\nThe latest Pelco cameras are similar in overall image quality / performance to other major manufacturers, an improvement from earlier generations of Sarix. See Testing Pelco SureVision 2.0. That said, they also are at the end high of the price range, especially compared to Avigilon and Samsung who are much more aggressive on price.\nPelco has 2 recorder lines - Digital Sentry and Endura. Endura, their enterprise appliance offering has generated consistently negative feedback even from Pelco partners and dealers. Digital Sentry, which we have not tested in a long time, is positioned at the mid-market but from what we have seen is like a rough / limited version of Exacq (which it kind of literally is as DS was acquired from Integral, prior to the Integral team starting Exacq).\nPelco also has the DX line John, not sure if makes any impact on your point?\nDX, to me, is even less competitive :) And it strikes me as even more of a legacy / analog platform. Like Pelco's version of Intellex...\ndavid tonsberg\nTo Carl's point...Remember Vicon? Very similar situation and they have never recovered.\nIPVM | In reply to david tonsberg | 06/03/14 02:39pm\nAt their peaks, Pelco was 5 to 10x larger than Vicon, meaning they have far more resources and reach. Also, Vicon remained independent while Pelco was acquired.\nThat said, I do agree that the risk / downside is a similar fate to Vicon.\nWhile no official list of reps impacted is available, we have confirmation that Langbaumin the Northeast and Keith Parker in the Midwest.\nConfirmed what (incomplete senstence)? They are in or out?\nIPVM | In reply to Chris Hammond | 06/03/14 02:36pm\nMy apologies. They are out. Clarified sentence. Thanks.\nIs it Langbaum and Parker that are out or being confirmed as retained?\nThey are out.\nJohn, love the \"shaky\" Pelco logo graphic you used in this article. Very cool.\nExpensive products? Outdated tech? Falling revenue? We could either increase our R&D spending and thereby admit we were wrong to have slashed it in, or we can blame the sales force and fire the manufacturers reps who helped us climb to the top in the first place. Yeah, let's do the second thing.\nWhat about 1 Volt and Kunz? Did they get cut?\nI was told 1 Volt and Kunz were cut, but only be one source. If anyone has direct response / mail / interaction, please share.\nMilsk Company was the other rep firm fired in the Mid-West. Monfort dropped Panasonic and Exacq to rep Pelco for the Mid-West.\ndropped Exacq and Panasonic for Pelco? Are they high?\nWhy? Is Panasonic really in that much better shape than Pelco? :)\nI agree about Exacq mostly, though they might be equally afraid of Tyco/Exacq dropping them.\nI do not know the specifics of their circumstances, so I cannot fathom a guess if they made a good or bad decision. But there are some structural issues that might make the move more reasonable.\nIt's been a year since the Exacq acquisition. How many rep firms have been fired?\nPanasonic has name recognition which in some cases is a factor. Pelco has gone nowhere but down the last 5 years.\nIn my opinion going from Exacq and Panasonic to Pelco is a downgrade and a move made out of panic.\nI heard there were some issues with Panasonic and they felt it was only a matter of time before the AD/Tyco rep firm was going to get Exacq anyway. I don\u2019t blame them for making a preemptive move. Exacq/Tyco wants more American Dynamics/Illustra cameras sold so they wouldn't want a rep-firm pushing Panasonic or whomever over AD.\nTyco has a big push to have the AD Illustra cameras sold with every exacqVision systems. For example, you get $250 off an exacqVision system if you buy 4 AD Illustra cameras with an exacqVision server. (See Tri-Ed monthly sales flyer) From what I'm told, Exacq RSMs have to quote $1million in Illustra cameras a year now.\nWhile I have consistently monitored your sight for valualbe industry insight this will be my first reply to a specific topic since it involves my company. To quickly address the question above relative to whether or not \"WE WERE HIGH\"when we elected to make the transition from Panasonic and Exacq to Pelco the answer is quite simple; NO!! Keep in mind we represented Panasonic for the last 31 years so this was not an easy decision!! However, over the course of the last 3+ years Panasonic has clearly shown a pattern of moving toward a more Direct Model with Panasonic badged employees known as ASM's (Area Sales Managers) supposedly owning the relationships with End-Users promoting the breadth of the Panasonic branded B2B products; Toughbooks, Displays, Office Automation, Projectors and last but not least Security. That being said the latter category of products held the least importance to Panasonic North America since it was the least valuable from a revenue perspective and that had become more and more apparent to our organization over the course of time. Please note there is a NAMED/HOUSE ACCOUNT component to this model where Reps would not be compensated on sales to those Named Accounts, (9,000+ End-Users in our Geographic area).\nWith respect to Exacq we felt much of the speculation included in this thread would ultimately come to fruition and therefore felt this was basically a non issue over the course of the coming weeks or months.\nRest assured we did our due diligence with Pelco not to mention a number of other product lines who had reached out to our organization over the course of the last 12-18 months. In Pelco we witnessed an awesome pipeline of new products, a company with over 5 Million PTZ's deployed (each one representing an opportunity for upgrades), an end-user base who has for the most part remained very loyal and a large number of integrators who Pelco helped build their businesess in the \"Analog Days\" who will once again consider doing business with Pelco as their line evolves. We are quite confident that our organizations can mutually be quite successful and regain the market position Pelco once held in our geographic area.\nCEO Monfort Electronics Marketing\nIPVM | In reply to Mark Clemens | 06/06/14 12:38am\nThanks for the frank and direct comments.\nMy experience / observations have been similar to yours about Panasonic's commitment to the security / surveillance market.\nPelco has its challenges, but they are clearly trying. Panasonic, in surveillance, not so much...\n1 Volt is definitely terminated - letter in hand dated May 29 - signed by Mike Prysock - Regional Sales Director - says effective June 30 - Letter also provides 6 \"factory\" names and phone numbers to contact for field support, customer visits, demos, etc...\nLetter continues with they are \"...evaluating options for how to best support this important territory \" BTW 1 Volt territory - Maryland, DC, Delaware, Eastern PA, Southern NJ, Virginia, North Carolina & South Carolina\nUndisclosed Distributor #13\nLetter also provides 6 \"factory\" names and phone numbers to contact for field support, customer visits, demos, etc...\nWell, that's classy. I'm more the bridge-burning type myself.\nAbco Supply\nSeems a bit crude, but it is what it is. Langbaum is a top-notch rep. firm and deserves better treatment for, yes, helping build and grow the Pelco brand.\nChesapeake & Midlantic | In reply to Abco Supply | 06/06/14 01:35pm\nAgreed. If I was a manufacturer, I'd be wining and dining them and trying to convince them why they should rep my brand.\n@ John. TYCO has the Illustra range of IP cameras. Have you done any tests with them or have a cue on the performance Vs Samsung, Avigilon, Bosch, Pelco Surevision?\nIPVM | In reply to Ameen Abdul Khader | 06/04/14 10:57am\nWe have not tested Illustra, little demand for covering AD, little demand for covering Illustra plus no strong technical or price differentiators.\nThe firms cut were: Milsk, Parker, Crockett, Langbaum and 1Volt. The last 3 all cut the same day. Take a look at the rep map again, that's a BIG part of the country. I was told the rumor is Pelco plans to go direct in those last 3 regions (Crockett, Langbaum and 1volt). Most of the West Coast and Rocky Mountains are direct already.\nI've heard there's been a lot of attrition at Pelco, especially in the last 18 months. MR firms even putting money back into their business to keep it going and retain their people. Sad. The Vicon comparison is probably pretty accurate and I'll add, the bigger they are, the harder they fall. So it could even be worse than Vicon? I think the real question is how much patience Schneider has left for Pelco? Understand sales are way off where they used to be, and how can they compete with the current product offering?\nI'm convinced the \"Schneider to Sell Pelco\" rumors are true, but after the last 7 years of pillaging and burning, who would buy it? That be a good betting pool to start.\nPelco is trying to sell their main building #1, and rumors of more buildings for sale. Take a look at this listing and see for yourself:\nIPVMU Certified | In reply to Undisclosed Distributor #10 | 06/05/14 01:11pm\nWow! Them selling the building does not exactly instill confidence.\nIn reply to Ross Vander Klok | 06/05/14 04:30pm\nAfter a phone call or two and a little digging here is the scoop. Older building that was apparently leased by Pelco. They have been out of it for a while and are not actually the ones selling it. The building owner is selling it and it has been for sale for well over a year, possibly two years.\nWhy would Tyco keep Exacq reps and American Dynamics reps? Especially when AD already has an OEM version of ExacqVision. My feeling from talking to people in the know, is that by ISC West 2015, there will be no more ExacqVision reps, only AD reps.\nHerve Fages\nI wanted to jump in and address some of the reader comments on this thread. It\u2019s not always easy to read, especially those coming from former customers, but that is the great thing about this forum - we are able hear from the industry and when appropriate and necessary, jump in to set the record straight as we see it.\nPart of putting that record straight is acknowledging some basic facts. And let\u2019s be honest about it. Some continue to compare the current Pelco to the McDonald-era Pelco; some continue to have the same expectations. Admittedly, that is the price you pay when you set the bar as we did. But that business model was simply unsustainable as the industry transitioned to IP and the market went from few competitors to scores. Of course, that naturally leads to the question: did we handle the shift well? No.\nThat being said, while we admittedly faced challenges five years ago as we transitioned to an IP company, I would disagree that we have \u201cgone nowhere but down the last five years.\u201d But perception is reality so we have a lot of work to do to change it. I want to point out, however, that 67% of our sales are IP sales with double-digit growth each of the last four years. We have the 5th largest market share for IP cameras per IHS 2013 (formerly IMS) and strictly on a revenue basis for all IP sales, I would venture to say we are larger than the vast majority of the competition. Importantly, I think our IP cameras themselves have been on par with the competition under shootouts and reviews. (I\u2019m sure John will let us know if he disagrees.) So while some may not see Pelco as a relevant IP company, it is my number-one goal to win these people over and show that we are indeed very relevant in today\u2019s market.\nAnd while we are nowhere close to where we want to be, we like our trajectory, our double-digit sales growth in EMEA and APAC and our ongoing efforts in the US to become the IP market leader.\nI as much as anyone understand that these are just words. That\u2019s why I challenge my organization on a daily basis to stop talking, to continue proving and most importantly, to focus on what matters most: our customers and what matters to them, on-time deliveries, field failure rates, customer satisfaction scores, repair time, on-hold wait time, etc. As a result, I am confident that the industry\u2019s perception is changing. Obviously not as fast as I would like but I am proud of where we are, the obstacles (self inflicted though they may have been) we have overcome, and where we are headed.\nWe are an IP company. We are a customer service company. And I think that is a unique combination. As more and more products become commoditized (it\u2019s a fact that no one in this industry can be blind to), we are very confident in our ability to offer what other companies simply cannot - customer support second to none.\nFinally, let me clear up any confusion about our go-to-market strategy regarding our Reps. As of July 1, we will have 5 Rep firms (KMA, Milsk, Spec Point, Tech Sales & Marketing and Monfort) as well as 5 territories, which we will manage through a direct sales force. As noted, our preference is using reps whenever possible and we are confident and excited with the Sales organization we now have in place.\nIn reply to Herve Fages | 06/05/14 04:15pm\n\"We are a customer service company.\" - Perhaps, but the level of customer service crashed after the acquisition and in my experience, never recovered.\nGone are the days when Level 1 support could answer many/most questions and if they could not, would refer the customer up the chain, even to an engineer if necessary.\nGone too are the days when Pelco's website contained valuable and useful information. Whatever happened to the Tech Knowledge Base that contained hints and tricks? What happened to the manuals? Exploded views and diagrams?\nDespite the claims from some Pelco employees that things are getting better, I fail to see it. Pelco used to listen to its customers and actually respond positively to criticism. Now, they typically ignore critics, even their major customers, or at best just pay lip service without actually doing anything about the problem(s).\nThis is almost exactly what I predicted would happen when it was first announced that Pelco was being acquired by Schneider - a severe decline in product and support quality. What I missed was the associated decline in R&D. I expected Schneider would see the benefit of engineering and building high quality and unique products but it is readily apparent that was not the case.\nI'll go out on a limb and make another prediction: within a couple of years, Schneider will sell Pelco; possibly to an Asian manufacturer looking for brand name recognition. This happened to consumer electronics in the 70's and 80's (Sanyo's purchase of Fisher, Funai's purchase of Symphonic and RCA's purchase by Thomson (not Asian but eerily similar to Schneider's purchase of Pelco since the buying companies are both based in France and both brands have become a shadow of their former selves)).\nHi Carl, I hope you will give us another opportunity to show you a level of customer service we are very proud of. We have worked hard to provide Tier 1 support that exceeds our customers expectations and are deploying services to meet the needs of our customers, including our KnowledgeBase (www.pelco.com/kb) and most recently online Chat.\nWith dedicated Technical Support (Josh Hill); Technical Account Management (led by Chris Haun); Escalation Engineering (Cory Fursman); and Expert Services (Fran Woller) teams, we believe we have an industry-leading Customer Support organization.\nThere will always be things we can work on and improve. And that is what we are doing - day in and day out.\nAs for ignoring critics/criticism, I am disappointed that is the perception. Every customer's feedback is valued and listened to.\nOne more point of clarification. As of July 1, our Reps will include:\nKen Massrey Associates\nR.W. Kunz & Associates\nSpecPoint\nTech Sales & Marketing\nI apologize for the earlier typo and confusion.\nOK. Pelco still sells DF5 back boxes and we have many in production. We were very happy with the CCC13xx series of cameras but the C10 series was a tremendous disappointment, to the point that we are replacing them despite their relatively young age.\nPlease tell me which Pelco camera, analog or IP, will fit inside a DF5?\nOh and by the way, thanks for the link to the KnowledgeBase. It has been sorely missed.\nPam Brum\n(on behalf of Todd Broderick, Southwest Region Sales Director)\nCarl, I also wanted to jump in and introduce myself. I am the Southwest Region Sales Director and responsible for your part of the country for Pelco. I would welcome the opportunity to sit down with you and discuss your questions and concerns in person. As Herve has stated, Pelco has made significant strides in the past few years and I wanted to personally reach out to you, to see how I can be of assistance. No manufacturer is perfect, but I can assure you that every Pelco employee, including myself, does whatever it takes to make sure the customer experience is at the highest level possible.\nIPVMU Certified | In reply to Herve Fages | 06/06/14 09:51pm\n@Mr.Herve. There has been so much of negative feedback on the Pelco products Sarix and Endura but the introduction of Surevision cameras and Digital Sentry could be seen as the first step towards trying to improve by Pelco. Having said that I have still seen integrators quoting with Sarix and Endura just to beat competition, while hiding the performance issues. Perhaps Pelco as a company should step in to see what integrators are quoting and make sure that they quote only the 'improved' products. Just a thought.\nIn reply to Ameen Abdul Khader | 06/08/14 10:36am\nThanks for your input here, I will be glad to get in touch with you and go through any proposals that our Integration partners have quoted recently and suggest the best product for the job. You can reach me at fahad.mahboob@pelco.com for issues with Pelco prodcuts in the UAE/Oman market.\nI'm surprise about the C10 Serie since it was one of our top seller. What about you drop me an email at : hfages@pelco.com.\nIf you not happy with the product we will replace it free of charge. Just contact me and I can have someone in my team take care of this.\nPelco has updated their website with the list of the surviving manufacturer reps\nPlus, here are the new contacts for direct Pelco sales in each non-rep region:",

        "raw_content": "Document Shows Elizabeth Warren Is Right About TPP\nPosted by Scoop | May 23, 2015 | Chile, News, USA\nArticle \u2013 Zaid Jilani\nAs opponents and advocates of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) continue to battle it out, the debate over the agreement has largely focused on the issue of trade whether jobs will be lost or gained, what the agreement will do to our trade deficit, \u2026Obscure Government Document Shows Elizabeth Warren Is Right About TPP\n\u201cThis is not a trade agreement. It\u2019s about intellectual property and dispute settlement.\u201d\nBy Zaid Jilani / AlterNet\nAs opponents and advocates of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) continue to battle it out, the debate over the agreement has largely focused on the issue of trade \u2013 whether jobs will be lost or gained, what the agreement will do to our trade deficit, and other related matters.\nIt\u2019s worth pointing out that the United States already trades heavily with the other 11 nations included in the TPP talks. As Paul Krugman says, \u201cthis is not a trade agreement. It\u2019s about intellectual property and dispute settlement; the big beneficiaries are likely to be pharma companies and firms that want to sue governments.\u201d Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has been particularly critical of the so-called Investor State Dispute Settlement provisions, which would empower corporations to use international courts to sue the U.S. government and others who are enacting regulations and protections that harm their profits.\nThe Obama administration is arguing that the deal is instead about trade and increasing American exports abroad. They have set up a web page on the U.S. Trade Representative\u2019s (USTR) site listing the benefits of exports from each of the fifty states in order to argue for the Trans-Pacific agreement.\nYet an obscure government document put out by that very same office makes Warren\u2019s case for her. The office puts out an annual report on \u201cforeign trade barriers\u201d around the world, going country by country to list complaints the U.S. government has about their laws with respect to commerce. If you read the2015 report, you\u2019ll quickly see that many of the complaints are about laws designed to promote environment, labor, and anti-monopolistic practices \u2013 and relate only vaguely to the larger issue of trade and tariffs. The complaints seem more focused around opposing regulations that restrict the rights of multi-national corporations and their investors.\nThe introduction to the report lists a number of regulations that the USTR lists as \u201ctrade barriers\u201d; these include \u201csanitary and phytosanitary measures\u201d and \u201clack of intellectual property protection.\u201d This would potentially open up the USTR to considering, say, MP3 file sharing or a food safety law as trade barriers.\nLet\u2019s look at just a few of the specific \u201cbarriers\u201d they cite:\n\u2022\tFOOD SAFETY: The USTR report repeatedly criticizes measures countries are taking related to food safety. In Argentina, the USTR is critical of a requirement that U.S. pork be shipped frozen or tested for trichnosis. In Guatemala, the report objects to Guatemala\u2019s practice of fumigating 90 percent of U.S. agricultural products that are imported, saying these fumigrations \u201cincrease the cost of U.S. agricultural exports to Guatemala.\u201d Hong Kong recently passed a code banning marketing of infant formula to children up to three years old, the USTR says it is \u201ccontinuing to engage\u201d with the government on that particular measure, questioning whether it is \u201cmore restrictive than relevant international standards.\u201d\n\u2022\tGMOs: The USTR frequently complains about countries limiting food derived from biotech crops. The report complains that \u201cIndia\u2019s biotech rules have not been notified to the WTO.\u201d South Korea\u2019s system for approving of biotech goods is \u201credundant\u201d and leading to \u201cdisruptions to exports of U.S. biotech products.\u201d Kuwait\u2019s relatively new system to label biotech goods is listed as a barrier to trade.\n\u2022\tINTELLECTUAL PROPERTY: The report complains that the \u201cscope of patentable subject matter is extremely restricted under Argentine law,\u201d referencing \u201cinnovators in pharmaceutical and agricultural chemical sectors\u201d \u2013 which is a way of saying pharmaceutical companies don\u2019t have enough right to declare patent monopolies and control the prices of their drugs. With regards to Chile, the USTR complains that there is \u201cinadequate legal basis\u201d to sue for infringement of copyright.\nNone of this is to say that labor, environmental, health, and other regulations are not sometimes used as inadvertent trade barriers to protect industries from competition.

        "raw_content": "Things You Should Know About Credit Bureaus\n\u2022\u2022\u2022 \u00a9 Philippe LEJEANVRE / Creative RF / Getty\nA credit bureau is an company that collects and maintains individual credit information and sells it to lenders, creditors, and consumers in the form of a credit report. While there are dozens of credit bureaus across the U.S., most consumers are familiar with the big three: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. The biggest credit bureaus do more than just compile and report consumer credit information. They also provide dozens of solutions that help businesses more better decisions.\nTypes of Information the Credit Bureaus Collect\nThe credit bureaus maintain a number of details related to you and credit history, starting from the time you opened your first credit account. For instance, the credit bureau collects Information about credit accounts: your repayment history, the amount of credit you have available, the amount of credit you're using, outstanding debt collections, details on public records like bankruptcy, tax liens, foreclosure, and repossession.\nCredit bureaus also maintain non-credit information about you including your current and previous addresses, current and previous employers, date of birth, and your salary information if it's available. While this information isn't used to calculate your credit score, businesses may use it to verify your identity.\nWhere Do Credit Bureaus Get Information?\nCredit bureaus depend on banks and other businesses to provide them with consumer information. Many of the companies you do business with send regular updates on your open accounts. Credit bureaus also get information about you from public court records.\nCredit bureaus use different sources for obtaining information and they generally don't share information with each other so your credit report may vary slightly from bureau to bureau. Entire accounts may be missing from your credit report.\nWho Uses Credit Bureau Data?\nBanks and credit card issuers are the most obvious users of the information provided by credit bureaus. A host of other companies turn to credit bureaus to make decisions about you. Employers, insurance companies, landlords, and debt collectors all request information from the credit bureaus.\nCredit bureaus provide prescreening lists to banks and insurance companies to help these companies decide which consumers may take advantage of their products. Credit card issuers, for example, may request a list of consumers with high credit card balances to send these consumers offers for balance transfer credit cards. If you've ever wondered how pre-approved credit card offers wind up in your bank account or how banks know to offer an unsolicited refinance on your mortgage, this is how. (By the way, you can opt-out of prescreening by going to .)\nLaw Regarding Credit Bureaus\nThe Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is a federal law that defines how credit bureaus are supposed to operate. The FCRA gives consumers the right to an accurate credit report. If you find errors in your credit report, you're allowed to dispute these errors with the credit bureaus. The credit bureau is then required to do an investigation and correct the errors when necessary.\nCredit Bureaus Providing Free Credit Reports\nYou also have the right to order your credit report from the three credit bureaus. The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act - a 2003 amendment to the FCRA - gives you the right to one free credit report each year from each of the three major credit bureaus (as well as other consumer reporting agencies). You can order your annual credit report from the major credit bureaus through AnnualCreditReport.com.\nIn addition to your free annual credit report, the credit bureaus are also required to give you a free credit report if:\nyou had an application denied because of information on your credit report\nyou're unemployed and are planning to start a job search within 60 days\nyou're on welfare\nyou're a victim of identity theft.\nYour Credit Information Could Have Errors\nDon't take for granted that your credit report is accurate. One in 20 consumers has a credit report error that will lower their credit score to the point that it makes getting credit more expensive, according to a .\nAnother person's information can erroneously wind up on your credit report, especially if their name or other personal information is similar to yours. Federal law gives you the right to dispute errors on your credit report, but the process doesn't always work as easily as it should. In 2013, an Oregon woman won an , one of the big three credit bureaus, after it failed to correct a credit report error that she's disputed 13 times over the course of two years.\nThese errors are sometimes supplied and confirmed by creditors and lenders who rely on the (sometimes erroneous) information in their computer systems rather than documentation provided by consumers.\nCredit Bureaus Only Provide Information\nWhile credit bureaus provide some or all the credit information that creditors and lenders use to deny or approve your applications, the bureau itself does not make a credit decision. If you believe a decision has been made in error you can ask the business to reconsider or check your credit report to make sure there are no inaccuracies that affect your ability to get approved.\nGet This Helpful Letter If Your Credit or Loan Application Is Denied",

BOSWORTH, M.D.\nThe association of herpes zoster with other diseases has always presented a fascinating study. As late as 1937 one author1 divided herpes zoster into two distinct groups: (1) idiopathic, or primary, zoster, due to a virus, and (2) symptomatic, or secondary, zoster, caused by various chronic infections, by toxic drugs and by blood diseases. We now think that in all types the disease is probably caused by a virus, the activation of which may be caused by a variety of stimuli. The relationship of this virus to varicella is still not clear, and the generalized form of the disease was early thought to be due to the fortuitous occurrence of zoster and chickenpox. It is now thought, however, that the generalized eruption represents an extension of the zoster itself. Just what the factors are which cause the disease to become generalized is not known.\nThe association of generalized herpes\nBOSWORTH EL.

Winds tore the trees right from their roots. The skies flashed with the sparks from exploding transformers.\nThe only think that would have made it cooler would have been zombies.\nHurricane Ike migrated north and hit Ohio like\u2026a hurricane. I was in Hartville, at a friends house, when the trees started falling. After the storm died, the otter and I made our way back home across the wastland of blackened streetlights and fallen trees. It was anarchy. Cars blew through the powerless traffic lights, and winds blue debris accross the roads.\nWe made it to a Giant Eagle for some things for my mother. Giant Eagle had left their doors open so that the glass wouldn\u2019t be blown out by the wind. Inside, several display standshad been knocked over, and leaves and branches were scattered on the floor. We went straight for the medicine aisle to get something for my mother, and was almost run into by a woman, buying ice cream, who did not seem to see me. She lumbered in front of me, and when I tried to go around her, she turned and almost hit me.\nPerhaps the zombie apocalypse had begun.\nAnyway, I got home, and my power was out. Fortunately, it came back on about 1am. Some of my friends won\u2019t have power for 4 or 5 days.\nSo\u2026did you get hit by Ike? Comment below!\nPosted in Books and Literature, discussion, Movies on 10 October 2007 by jason\nI was just thinking about the movie version of Bret Easton Ellis\u2019 The Rules of Attraction. In the 1st scene, the film makers decided to make Lauren, played by Shannyn Sossamon, the subject of the books opening narration.\nNow, in the book, the reader doesn\u2019t know who the story being told is about, and the narrator of that chapter remains anonymous, unlike in the rest of the book, where each chapter is labled by the narrators\u2019 names.\nAnyway, I was thinking: In the movie version, Lauren\u2019s virginity seems pretty important to her. Sure, she\u2019s a little shallow in that she\u2019s \u201cin love\u201d with a guy who hardly knows her, and she quickly falls for another guy (Sean, played by James van der Beek ). However, despite this, she seems to be a thoughtful, sensitive, realatively non-judgemental sort of gal.\nWhat\u2019s my point? Hold on; I\u2019m Getting there!\nOK, so when she realizes that she has not, in fact, lost her virginity to the film major, she exclaims, \u201cI lost my virginity to a towny!\u201d I don\u2019t know\u2026that seems out of character for her.\nSo\u2026What do I believe?\nPosted in Conspiracies, discussion, Kucinich, Politics, Television on 26 September 2007 by jason\nThe flipside of yesterday\u2019s post: What exactly do I believe?\nI believe in the Military Industrial Complex, and that it\u2019s largly to blame for the war in Iraq.\nThat the Kennedy Assasination was executed by a conspiracy, and not a lone gunman.\nThe US government used drugs to try to create assassins.\nThat many national leaders are members of a secret society.\nObviously, I believe that the media, the corporate interests, and sections of the Democratic Party are conspiring against Dennis Kucinich, though the groups probaby aren\u2019t working together.\nThat there was a vast, right-wing conspiracyto bring down Bill Clinton, but that that is also politics as usual.\nThat insurance companies, most of the right, and a portion of the left are conspiring to gain profit at the expense of the health, jobs, and lives of America\u2019s poor and lower-middle class.\nThat there is an effort to demonize China, in prepreation of another cold war. See the \u201cconspiracies\u201d tag for more on this.\nThat the Oil and Auto industries conspired to end the Electric Car program in California.\nThat, as Amuirin stated in a comment on my last post, life on earth is no accident, but also that evolution is the most plausible mechanism that got us here. I also believe that, since Creationist theory can not be evidenced scientifically, it should not be taught in schools, especially as a scientific theory.\nWhat don\u2019t I believe?\nPosted in Conspiracies, discussion on 25 September 2007 by jason\nJust for fun, here is a list of conspiracy theories that I just can\u2019t buy into:\nThe Protocols of the Elders of Zion, especially since It\u2019s been discredited as a forgery.\nThe Bavarian Illuminati.\nReptoid aliens have infiltrated human society.\nThat Global Warming is a deliberate lie. I mean, come on. The frickin\u2019 permafrost is melting. It\u2019s supposed to be, well, permanently frosted!\nThat the lunar landings were faked.\nThat Kurt Cobain was not a suicide.\nThat Elvis did not die in 1977.\nThat Satanic Ritual Abuse runs rampant in the US.\nThat the 9/11 attacks were an \u201cinside job.\u201d (Though I think that the Bush administration has profited from the attacks.)\nThat a UFO crashed in Roswell. I suspect it was a top secret American project. I doubt that we have been visited by aliens, though I imagine there is life on other planets.\nThat barcodes have anything to do with the Biblical mark of the beast.\nThat contrails from jets are actually chemicals being dropped on people.\nThat flouride poisons Americans, is used for mind-control, or anything other than strengthening teeth.\nThat Paul is, indeed, dead.\nI\u2019m sure there are others. So\u2026what don\u2019t you believe?\nWhat Super Power Would You Want: Teleportation\nPosted in Comics, discussion, Meme on 24 September 2007 by jason\nA couple of days ago, I asked what superpower you each want, if one were to be bestowed upon you. Aparently, no one wants superpowers. \ud83d\ude42\nIf I could have one power, if wouldn\u2019t be flight; I\u2019m afraid of heights. It wouldn\u2019t be invulnerability, for this power would be wasted on me; I avoid situations that might kill me, and I doubt this behavior would change. Super Strength be cool, but then everyone would want me to help them move furniture.\nSome powers would be a BAD IDEA \u2122 for me to have. X-ray vision? I would never get anything done; I would just watch all the girls walk by, literally undressing them with my eyes. Invisibility? All I would do is go places I shouldn\u2019t be.\nTherefore, the best power for me would be teleportation. I would get about an hour more of sleep every day because I could leave for work seconds before my shift starts. (I tend to get places up to 1/2 hour early to make sure that I don\u2019t get stuck in any traffic; my job is only 10-15 minutes away. I know that that math doesn\u2019t add up, but who cares?). If I forget my lunch at home, I would just say, \u201cI\u2019m going home for a second,\u201d and it would actually be a second.\nNot just that, but I could travel the world, visiting all my international friends, and still be home in time for bed!\n(I will repost this when I collect the addresses of the other participants)\nSee what others have said about this topic:\n(post in progress\u2026bumping)",

Some of you may go the extra step of going on LinkedIn, seeing if you can find the profile of the person you are going to be meeting with. That can be difficult if your network is small. For me, it is pretty easy at this point because I have so many connections. My suggestion would be that if you do a Google search, site://www.linkedin.com and in quotation marks, put the person\u2019s name that may give you a shot if your network is small.\nThere are an interview tip about a few other places to do some research:\nThe firm you may be interview with might have some videos on YouTube. That may be even easier than searching the website.\n2. Facebook. The company page on Facebook may be helpful to you.\n3. The Twitter feed for the person you would be meeting with may be extremely helpful to get an idea of what the thinking is like, the way they present themselves, you may see a photo of them there is all the more casual than what you see on LinkedIn\u2026 All this will give you more\u2019s rounded sense of them and their personality than you might underling to engage.\nAll in all, your job is to do some homework before the interview. So when they say, \u201cSo, what do you know about us,\u201d and not just simply sitting there going, \u201cI don\u2019t know. Uh, I read some stuff. You are a good company.\u201d You don\u2019t want to come across in that way.\nYou want to come across as knowledgeable, competent, and present yourself with confidence because, to a real degree, what they are trying to do is get under your vernier, underneath the surface of you to see if there is something more there than the way you are packaging yourself.\nOne of the ways of deflecting that is to let them know that you are thorough. It is 1 of the most important things that a firm can learn about you is your thoroughness in preparation.\nAgain, research doesn\u2019t have to be hard, difficult, complicated, or take a long time. You can watch 3 videos that a firm prepares on YouTube, find the Twitter feed for the person that you\u2019re interviewing with, read their company page on Facebook, go to the website, do a Google search\u2026 You can do a lot of things in 30 minutes and gotten far further along than you might have previously.\nThis interview tip can be a difference maker by helping you feel at ease with your interviewer and help you see what you have in common with the, when you meet.",

        "title": "Yes, you should collaborate, but\u2026 | Adventures in Academe",
        "raw_content": "In my position and personal experience I\u2019ve seen a number of collaborations. One of the first questions new faculty often ask is if they should collaborate or why they should. In general, people in the sciences are usually expected to collaborate. Chances are by the time that most science PhDs are looking for Post docs they have co-authored some papers with their advisors or been listed as a collaborator or co-applicant with their faculty advisor on a small grant.\nFor many people collaboration is optional but they feel it may help them with promotion and tenure, and it usually can if the group is functional and the work is completed. Some want to take on a larger research project which they cannot solely complete. While others like the camaraderie of working as a group. The decision to work with collaborators, for many, is very personal. Because the reason for choosing to collaborate is so personal, I\u2019ve attempted to look at groups, roles and tips for collaborations to give you a broad base of things to consider.\nFirstly, how can you recognize a flawed collaborative group? Some indicators that the group may be destined for failure include:\n1)\tA collaborative group formed around the idea of a \u201cmastermind\u201d who is somewhat absent from the group, although clearly a person to whom everyone else is subordinate. These groups tend to be paralysed as they are unsure of the goals of the project.\n2)\tA group who brings in a \u201cCV\u201d rather than a researcher as the primary investigator; with several researchers trying to articulate a project with the \u201cgolden CV\u201d in the lead. Often, it is a far reach for the primary investigator, and they have a lack of ownership/interest in the project.\n3)\tA group that is so determined to get money for a project that they neglect to consider that the idea they are working with does not fit the parameters of the grant.\n4)\tA group where no one wants to be \u201cdominant\u201d and therefore, everything is done by committee. In these cases items that should be removed from the application are left, and it takes a long time to make decisions, both of which can be to the detriment of the application.\nSecondly, who are the players in a functional collaborative group or partnership? There tend to be four major types (although some people can wear two \u201chats\u201d in a small group).\nThe Workhorse: this person will do the bulk of the work on the application.\nThe PI (Primary Investigator): this is the person who is the primary applicant for the grant, and, in theory, the application builds on their program of research.\nThe Practical Person: this person has \u201creal world\u201d skills and can estimate items for the budget, or plan the timelines for the project, and often is better at completing the portions of the grant that are extremely specific and structured. This person may even be your institution\u2019s research officer, or a senior research student you have conscripted (with pay) for additional help.\nThe Organiser: this person will set the timelines for the team, set meetings, and send emails to keep all the collaborators on track. You may also find an institutional research officer who will do this for your group.\nSome grants allocate special funds for early-career researchers. You will want to be PI for those grants. However, you will want to make sure you are not being taken advantage of. Make sure your co-applicants are wearing at least one of the hats listed above.\nTwo things to be mindful of: the primary investigator is the person who is going to get the most accolades for receiving the grant. Some new researchers also are surprised to learn that if they are not listed as an applicant on the grant, but hired or contracted or given some research funds under it, this basically is a research contract which counts for little. And it is all of the work without any of the recognition.\nThirdly, some tips for collaboration:\n\u2022\tIf possible, ask for funds for a student researcher in the grant. Most grants want to spend money on student salaries, and most times as applicants, you have to report on how many student assistants you have had.\n\u2022\tIf allowed, ask for travel funds and a small piece of research technology for yourself in the grant.\n\u2022\tIn general, don\u2019t ask for less than $7000 per year in your application. Doing an application is too much work to ask for less. And, agencies don\u2019t like to see you ask for a small amount that you should be able to get out of your institution via internal grants.\n\u2022\tAsk your Dean, Office of Research, or Department Chair for seed money for your project. Whether you use it for a student to do some legwork, or develop a bibliography for the project, you can also list it as a student supervised and money towards the project. Ask collaborators to do the same at their institution.\n\u2022\tSet timelines for the grant writing process with periodic check ins. If your collaborator drops the ball, a broken timeline allows you to exit gracefully during the application process. Continually missed timelines at this stage is a warning sign of things to come.\n\u2022\tMake sure the deliverables are clear and the application explicitly states who will do what. If, for example, your colleague takes a leave of absence, you don\u2019t want to be on the hook for completion of all the goals laid out in the application. More likely, if a colleague simply \u201cchecks out\u201d having the remainder of the goals listed will be helpful in boundary-setting.\n\u2022\tPlainly state to your collaborators how much further you will be going with the project if money does not present itself; some may expect the project will be going on regardless.\n\u2022\tLarge projects may require the administration to draw up a Memorandum of Understanding between institutions.\n\u2022\tAlways include cash or in-kind support from all institutions that the applicants come from. This generally makes your application more appealing.\n\u2022\tKeep in mind that researchers and their family members usually cannot be paid out of research grants.\nFinally, pick people to work with that you respect, and try not to be so blinded by an intense pressure to succeed and produce that you rush into partnerships and collaborations. Ideally, take the time to consider each one and discuss it fully before agreeing to go on with it. Choose with the same discretion that you would pick a roommate.",

        "title": "Christ as the Absence of God - END OF GOD",
        "raw_content": "What I\u2019m going to write here may sound controversial to some. But it is necessary that I do this. Before I plunge ahead, I think it is important to state that a Christian theology cannot talk about God\u2019s absence in Christ without bookending the Christ-event with incarnation and resurrection. If one wants to be a Christian theologian one simply has to do so, standing on the promise of God\u2019s presence (Immanuel) and living in the hope of the last things of which the resurrection of Jesus Christ is a harbinger. Yet, a genuine Christian theology that does justice to the existential realities of humanity, must also acknowledge the ambiguity of both promise of presence and hope of renewal. I believe, good theology will pause where others have often refused to tarry; it will linger where others have refrained to do so out of fear of the unknown.\nIf we take the resurrection for instance, we can acknowledge and accept the biblical account of Jesus\u2019 rising from the dead. We can agree with St. Paul that without the resurrection the Christian faith is void, meaningless, and without genuine hope. And yet, we ask, where is the resurrection then? Christians have been waiting for 2000 years and we\u2019re living in a world that hasn\u2019t changed a bit. We may talk about resurrection all we want, but tomorrow we die. We die young or old, from injuries, diseases, or old age, satisfied or sad that our life never saw any dream fulfilled, in the hope of heaven or with the sole desire to escape the hell that was earth. Resurrection is not yet, they say; it awaits us, they say. But it is not here. Not now! Our existential situation belies the hope that has been given us in the eye-witness accounts of Jesus\u2019 resurrection. It is only a hope; never a reality. And thus is it ambiguous.\nOr let\u2019s start with the incarnation. Apparently, those who knew Jesus, witnessed truth and grace in bodily form. So much so that they understood Jesus to be the only begotten god. John\u2019s gospel tells us that the Word that was from the beginning with God and was God became flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus is then the bodily presence of God among humanity in such a way that the divine partakes in human flesh. God is one of us.\nBut even these beautiful words become ambiguous in the light of the cross. True, if we are to believe the gospel narratives, the people who knew Jesus either really, really liked him or really, really hated him, proof of the extraordinary character he evinced. Those who regarded him as a threat\u2014and basically that means all those in power\u2014managed to arrest him and get him condemned to hang on a cross. And it is to that cross that we need to turn our attention.\nIf we are to believe interpretations of Jesus\u2019 death on the cross, the cross was the crux of his work. The cross provides the key to unlocking the meaning of what Jesus was all about. It is said that Jesus\u2019 voluntary death as a criminal was actually part of a divine plan\u2014or became een opportunity for divine love\u2014to reconcile humanity to God. Indeed, if we want to understand the full meaning of why God became human, the cross provides the answer.\nIronically, more than anything else, that answer looks like a question mark today. Christian theologians like to revel in the atonement by way of sacrificial imagery. They prefer talk of assurance of salvation and can tell you exactly what transactions took place on the cross. But do they really know? In many of the volumes written on the cross, one simple thing is overlooked, or subsumed under determined explicatory strategies. We find it in the Aramaic words of Jesus \u201cEloi, Eloi, Lama Sabachtani,\u201d \u201cMy God, my God, why have you forsaken me?\u201d\nIf there would be a vote to determine the most important sayings of Jesus, these words would certainly not come on top. Yet, the simple cry of forsakenness on the cross upends our theologies of self-assurance and comfort. If Jesus of Nazareth is the Word become flesh, God incarnate, the indwelling Holy One among humanity\u2019s downtrodden, how can he cry out these words? The very question reveals their importance. We must tarry and pay attention to what is happening here.\nIf Jesus is humanity\u2019s assurance of God\u2019s presence, how is it that at the crucial moment of the atonement we find this divine presence to be lacking, precisely, divinity? How can it be that at the very moment in time and space that heaven and earth meet, Jesus discovers, so to speak, his own divinity as a void, a hollow, a nothing? At the cross when God and human meet in the person of Jesus, God turns up to be a non-presence. People have ready answers: Jesus needs to suffer the consequences of our sin, they say, he needs to experience the wrath of God.\nJ\u00fcrgen Moltmann has a much better answer, of course. He looks at the cross as a trinitarian event in which the forsakenness of a sinful world causes a rift, an event of alienation, within the trinitarian relationship of Father and Son. Both are affected; both suffer. Moltmann is a much better theologian than I ever will be. Yet, even here I think the emptiness of God is glossed over too easily. Both the void that God appears to be at the moment of greatest need, and the absence that God\u2019s incarnational presence turns out to be when it matters most, are too significant to ignore.\nThe Absentee God\nIt is so significant because this is also the existential experience of too many Christians who have wrestled with God and begged God to come to their aid. At the moment of greatest need, in the deepest darkness, there turns out to be a palpable nothing, a tangible absence, a harrowing bottomless depth. It is this nothing that makes people question the reality of God. It is this point of unanswered prayers, spiritual emptiness, and absence that must be named. Of course, those who do so, always find themselves on the fringe of positive organized religion. They\u2019re not part of the official narrative of jubilations and salutations, of spiritual victory and worship to the Lord. Their story is the story of defeat and desolation, a story about the God who has left and abandoned his children.\nIt is highly significant that we find this same abandonment and absence in the most crucial words of Christ, words that epitomize the Christ-event as such. The God who has promised to be present is absent; absent in the incarnation, absent to Christ, absent on the cross, absent in the atonement, absent at the very moment all God\u2019s promises matter most.\nIn Christ, then, we meet not only Immanuel, God with us. We also meet the absent God. The God who couldn\u2019t even be there when humanity\u2019s fate was at stake. In Christ, as the incarnated Word of God, we find nothing beyond Christ\u2019s humanity.\nThis can mean a number of things. It could mean, for instance, that Jesus was a mere human who experienced god-forsakeness like so many of us, and even more so, because of his implicit claim to unity with the Father. Jesus\u2019 cry on the cross is then the atheism of Christ and the atheism of Christianity. But why would his cry of forsakenness be preserved in the text if his divinity was to be asserted?\nAnother option, one that I find much more rewarding and meaningful, is that in the presence of God, precisely at the point of closest contact between God and human being, and precisely at the moment of greatest need, suffering, and pain, God is experienced as absence. The moment of deepest human suffering is not cushioned by a comforting presence, but reinforced by a retreating void.\nThis does not mean God is not real, but it does mean that there is an overlap with the atheistic claim of God\u2019s non-existence. The latter names something real; something that should not be glossed over. It also does not mean, that God doesn\u2019t care, but rather that this caring\u2014including the promise of God\u2019s abiding presence\u2014is a caring under the form of humanity. That is the concreteness that is given us, the co-suffering of God in its incarnational embodied reality. It is the God who cries out the human cry of desolation, in full solidarity with human frailty as thrown into the world: \u201cGod, why have you forsaken me?!\u201d\nWe stare at a profound darkness that confronts us with a God fully hidden beyond the mangled body of Christ on the cross; a God who is not there, who, for all purposes doesn\u2019t really exist. Christ marks, and in a way is, the absence of God. This insight opens up to a mystery; not a foregone conclusion. It is an insight the marks of which we carry in our bodies; we, who found God absent, but who, with Christ, keep asking: Why have you forsaken me?\nCategories: Articles, Atheism, English, Theology and tagged in: Absentee God, God's absence, Hidden God, incarnation, Moltmann, theodicy\nPrevious Post Previous post: Whether You Believe God Exists is Not the Point\nNext Post Next post: Is het irrationeel om te geloven?\nJames hoek says:\nGod has never been absent in all of my life\u2019s journey, thru thick and thin, loss of loved ones ect. Ask God why he seem\u2019s absent to you. Don\u2019t forget the basics. The recommended prayer listed four times in the New Testament (how we should pray). I\u2019ve found that forgiveness creates love for example, this I do for all, people I drive with, work with, evil past tyrants Hitler ect. Forgiveness is an essential when communing with God. Forgetting not required but forgiveness is. lack of forgiveness is in my opinion man kinds worst sin, resulting in most of mankind\u2019s sufferings. All of creation has been set up with redemption in mind!, since before the beginning of time. God most certainly is highly interactive with me, I\u2019m far from perfect, and yet he\u2019s the best parent I\u2019ve ever had. Stretch Hoek, (James ). Maybe I\u2019m not reading this blog post quite the way it\u2019s intended.\nThanks James. I appreciate this. My blogpost is not about forgiveness but about being willing to name (and linger with) the experience of forsakenness.",

        "raw_content": "Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Naomie Harris, Malin Akerman, Jeffrey Dean Morgan\nVideo game-to-film adaptations have always had a bad reputation, and have rarely been accurate to their source material. However, the arrival of new film \u2018Rampage\u2019 might be able to destroy that stigma.\n\u2018Rampage\u2019 is based on the 1986 arcade game of the same name, where you have to control a giant gorilla, named George, a giant crocodile-type creature called Lizzie or a giant werewolf, called Ralph, and destroy as much of the game\u2019s city landscape as possible to proceed to the next level.\nAfter seeing the film, I can definitely say that this is the most accurate video game adaptation so far.\nThe film adaptation follows Davis (played by Dwayne Johnson), a primatologist and ex-military personal, and his friend George the Gorilla. When George is hit by a scientific experiment that has fallen from the sky, he starts to rapidly grow in size and aggression. Desperate to save his friend, Davis travels to Chicago in hopes of finding a cure and discovers that this same experiment may have also mutated a wolf and a crocodile\u2026and citywide destruction ensues.\nThe performances are great: Dwayne Johnson and Naomi Harris play very likeable and interesting characters, and they work very well on-screen together. Even though Johnson seems to be in his comfort zone with this role, it looks like he had fun making this film, and I\u2019ve grown to liking him more as an actor with every film I see him in. His on-screen chemistry with Jeffrey Dean Morgan was very charming to watch too (even if Morgan\u2019s accent did get annoying very quickly).\nThe friendship between Davis and George was believable and, at times, heart-warming which made me care for the characters when the film\u2019s storyline really kicks into gear; I wanted these characters to survive the chaos that was happening on-screen.\nWhile the CGI was cartoon-ish at times (especially when focusing on George), the creature designs for Ralph the Wolf and Lizzie the Crocodile were fantastic and unique-looking. The soundtrack was also fantastic and perfectly worked with the visuals. On top of this, it was memorable, which I find rare in action films.\nOverall, \u2018Rampage\u2019 is a fun-filled action adventure, and is probably the most accurate video game adaptation to date.\nMegan\u2019s Rating: 8.0/10\nTagged as: Brad Peyton, Dwayne Johnson, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Malin Akerman, Naomie Harris, Rampage\nPingback: Weekend BO Predictions: \u2018Infinity War\u2019 Continues To Conquer While New Openers Battle For A Top 10 Finish \u2013 JUMPCUT ONLINE",

        "raw_content": "Weekend BO Report: \u2018Skyscraper\u2019 Fails To Hit Predicted Heights\n\u2018Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation\u2019 coasted to first place in the domestic Box Office this weekend, marking the third time a film in the franchise debuted atop the U.S. charts. Its $44.1m gross, in-line with the $42.5m made by \u2018HT1\u2019 and the $48.5m earned by \u2018HT2\u2019, came from an audience which gave the animated-comedy an A- on Cinemascore (exactly the same as its predecessors).\nIts domestic gross was also complimented by an overseas total of $46.4m across 44 countries (including topping the charts in over 30 territories), making enough to top the international charts too. Made on an $80m budget, the film follows Dracula (Sandler) and his family (Samberg and co) taking time off from running the hotel to get a holiday of their own. They can\u2019t rest too easily, however, as competition, in the form of \u2018Teen Titans Go! To The Movies\u2019, hits cinemas in just 2 weeks.\nEarning $15m less than \u2018HT3\u2019 was \u2018Ant-Man and the Wasp\u2019, dropping like a fly in its second weekend, to post $29.1. Its 62% fall was reminiscent of MCU-fan favourite \u2018Spider-Man: Homecoming\u2019, which saw a similar drop in its second weekend, after the release of \u2018War for the Planet of the Apes\u2019. \u2018SM:HC\u2019, of course, rebounded for a domestic finish of $334.2m. A similar multiplier for \u2018Ant-Man 2\u2019 gives a U.S. total of $216.8m \u2014 a healthy return for a film yet to open in China, and for one not expected to truly break-out at all.\nIf \u2018Ant-Man 2\u2019s performance this week was disappointing, then The Rock\u2019s \u2018Skyscraper\u2019 was all but a flop. Earning just $24.9m in its first 3 days from a $125m budget, it marks Dwayne Johnson\u2019s worst opening since last May\u2019s \u2018Baywatch\u2019. While a year may not seem long for us mere humans, it actually marks a period in which 4 (yes, 4) films starring The Rock have been released. It\u2019s average B+ on Cinemascore, nor its 50% on the Tomatometer, can save \u2018Skyscraper\u2019 from being a domestic bomb.\nThe film only made $40.4m in international markets, as numbers across the globe continue to make for a depressing viewing. The film (co-financed by a Chinese-owned company) now relies heavily on the Chinese market, where it doesn\u2019t open until Friday, to recoup the large amounts of money spent. The hope here is that Dwayne Johnson-fatigue hasn\u2019t set in, unlike in the U.S., where audiences may just be a little too used to his presence on the big screen.\n\u2018Incredibles 2\u2019 held well against strong competition to gross a remarkable $16.3m in its 5th weekend, for a domestic total of $535.9m. This makes it the 9th biggest domestic film of all time, taking the place of \u2018The Dark Knight\u2019 (which started 2018 in 7th place). Its global take of $858.5m is the most impressive figure here, as the film hasn\u2019t yet opened in countries such as Germany, Japan, South Korea, and Italy. The aim now is for \u2018I2\u2019 to join the list of only six (\u2018Frozen\u2019, \u2018Minions\u2019, \u2018Toy Story 3\u2019, \u2018Despicable Me 3\u2019, \u2018Finding Dory\u2019 and \u2018Zootopia\u2019) animated films to break $1bn.\n\u2018Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom\u2019 continued to perform well this weekend, earning $16.2m in the U.S., as well as a Universal Studio-record $12.7m opening in Japan \u2014 making a $364m domestic and $1.14bn global total respectively. Horror, \u2018The First Purge\u2019, delivered well against expectations, dropping by just 46% to earn $9.3m. Possibly the biggest surprise this week was Boots Riley\u2019s \u2018Sorry to Bother You\u2019 earning $4.2m to reach 7th place, beating our $2.6m predictions by Saturday afternoon. This was more than enough to leapfrog \u2018Sicario: Day of the Soldado\u2019 ($3.9m), \u2018Uncle Drew\u2019 ($3.2m), and \u2018Ocean\u2019s 8\u2019 ($2.9m), who are likely to leave the top ten after this week.\nJust how badly will \u2018Skyscraper\u2019 do?

        "raw_content": "Anthony Caravaggi Queen's University Belfast\nCharles M Bishop\nKeywords: fruit, vegetables, primates, frugivores, husbandry, disease\nThe formulation and provision of appropriate captive diets for zoo animals is important in ensuring the continued health of populations. Inappropriate diets can lead to a number of nutritional deficiencies and increase the risk of disease and obesity. Ruffed lemurs are the most intensely frugivorous of extant lemur species. Captive animals, however, are often fed a diet which may not accurately reflect the composition of the wild diet. As such, the species is prone to obesity and can suffer from nutrition-related diseases. Here we describe the historical diets of several captive populations of ruffed lemurs in the UK, describing differences in nutritional content with a particular focus on the problems of obesity and iron storage disease. Dietary data were collected from six zoological institutions. Comparative analyses were conducted to investigate differences in the amount metabolisable energy, carbohydrates, sugar and iron provisioned per individual, between institutions. The results showed that the composition of captive ruffed lemur diets, and the amount of food offered, differed between institutions. All dietary analytes showed significant variation, with metabolisable energy exceeding suggested maintenance energy requirements at all institutions. One population was found to be obese, and two institutions reported mortalities where excessive iron accumulation and iron storage disease was observed. These data represent an important addition to the literature as they describe historical inconsistencies in the diets of captive ruffed lemurs. Given the degree of variation in diet, morphology, physiology, and oro-rectal through-time amongst nonhuman primates, and the evidence of obesity and disease presented herein, the development of species-specific diets is long overdue. Zoos can use our data to inform the development of appropriate contemporary diets, thus improving captive ruffed lemur condition and wellbeing.",

The film, made through Chicago production collective Kartemquin Films (makers of The Interupters), will be available for free streaming on www.worldchannel.org starting February 10, 2016.\nIn American Arab, Iraqi-American Director Usama Alshaibi asks \u201cWhy is being an Arab suddenly the opposite of being a decent man?\u201d Throughout the documentary, Alshaibi explores what it\u2019s like to occupy the \u2018space in between\u2019 as a hyphenated American, specifically of Arab origin, during the surge of anti-Muslim sentiment that arose in post 9-11 America.\n\u201cIn this film, I wanted to show real people living their lives, and I also wanted it to be something that young people can watch and benefit from,\u201d said Alshaibi. \u201cI think anyone that comes from the Middle East that comes from mixed ethnicity, that has a name that is Muslim or Arab, was affected after 9/11. I shared this story to make some sense of what we all went through.\u201d\nAlshaibi offers a path for empathy while rendering a portrait familiar to those seeking and struggling to find their place in America. In a quest for the source of internalized pain in the face of discrimination, he digs and pokes to expose a long history of Hollywood images and media stereotypes of Arab men as sex craved buffoons, angry terrorists, \u201ccamel jockeys\u201d and the butt of racist jokes.\nThe Alshaibi family came to America because Usama\u2019s dad, a professor, refused to work for Saddam Hussein and was persecuted in Iraq. Their mother, Maha, reflects on the irony of having struggled for 10 years to become an American, to offer her children a new country with freedom, and a safe home, only to emerge as the \u201cenemy\u201d when her new country, America enters war with Iraq.\nAlshaibi reflects on his childhood, a time when he never thought of himself as having any ethnicity at all. To reaffirm this notion of normalcy, he visits with college buddies in Iowa City who didn\u2019t perceive him radically differently, but at the same time celebrated him for his \u201cexotic otherness.\u201d Later, Alshaibi shares how he became increasingly embarrassed by his Arab roots, and forged a new identity as an artsy teen interested in \u201chard-core punk, weird film and all things subculture.\u201d\nAlshaibi becomes a new father, coinciding with the end of Ramadan, when his daughter Muneera (Arabic for \u2018brilliant\u2019) Cinema Alshaibi is born. Maha, her grandmother, hopes the newest member of her family will enjoy a mix of \u201ca new culture\u201d: no hijab, no limits, free, proud of her varied heritage and, with the ability to make her own way.\n\"AmDoc is thrilled to collaborate with WORLD Channel and WGBH on the fourth season of America ReFramed. As co-producers, we share a passion for storytellers committed to helping us gain a deeper and more nuanced understanding of America today,\" says Justine Nagan, Executive Director, American Documentary, Inc.\nAmerican Arab world premiered at IDFA, and had its US premiere at Big Sky Doc Fest, before screening at Chicago Underground Film Festival (where it received an special jury honorable mention), Cleveland International Film Festival, Minneapolis / St. Paul Film Festival, and more festivals and community screenings. It is available on DVD and VOD. Alshaibi began the project under a diversity fellowship at Kartemquin Films. The fellowship was enacted with support from the MacArthur Foundation and the Ford Foundation.

It happened just after 4 a.m. Thursday outside the apartment complex near N.W. 31st and Blackwelder.\n\"I heard some noises down at the other end, and I drove down and there was a guy that had a girl down on the ground with a gun to her head, telling her he was going to kill her,\u201d said an overnight apartment security guard, who didn\u2019t want to be identified in fear of retaliation.\nHe told News 4 he immediately called 911.\n\"I had them on the phone, and they asked me if I knew where he was at that exact moment, but I told them no but I can check and see if I can find him,\u201d he said.\nHe couldn\u2019t find the suspect, but he stopped to make sure the woman was okay. That\u2019s when things took another horrifying turn.\n\"I told her I had already called the police and, about that time, he comes behind my car and, just out of nowhere, raises the gun and fires one shot, hits here. The officer told me, if it hadn't been for this piece right here, it probably would have traveled into the car and had a pretty good chance at hitting me,\u201d he said, referencing a piece of metal on the rear windshield wipers.\nThat little piece of metal possibly saved his life because he was sitting in the front seat.\n\"That creates a very dangerous situation, obviously, when somebody is firing off a weapon, especially recklessly,\u201d said MSgt. Gary Knight with the Oklahoma City Police Department. \"Thankfully, nobody got hurt.\u201d\nOfficers caught the suspect, 19-year-old Tristan Nelson, a short time later a few blocks away.\nThat news was a big relief for the security guard, who is thankful his life wasn\u2019t cut short by a senseless crime.\n\"I froze. I won't lie to you. I just froze. Even after he fired both shots, I didn't even drive off. I just sat there,\u201d he said. \"Just lucky. Wasn't my time.\u201d\nNelson was booked into jail on several charges including assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a firearm with a prior felony conviction and possession of marijuana.\nPolice were not able to locate the woman he held at gunpoint.\n\u201cJust a quiet, very smart kid,\u201d Woman who sheltered Jayme Closs realized alleged kidnapper was her former student\nMan accused of trying to assault neighbor with piece of rebar after breaking into her home\nOklahoma man sentenced to prison for firearm possession after bullet strikes boy\u2019s crib",

The question stated simply is: under what condition(s) and to what extent(s) is human experimentation for the furtherance of medical knowledge justified? The question applies solely to so-called nontherapeutic research, that which bears no relation to the illness of the individual who is being subjected to an investigational procedure and who is not expected to derive any direct objective benefit from it. There can be no doubt that answers to many medical questions can in the final analysis be derived only from definition of physiologic patterns and of their responses to foreign situations by direct investigation of human beings. No one should take issue with the policy that all possible information concerning a given problem should be obtained from carefully p l a n n e d i n a n i m a t e (\"test tube\") studies followed in turn by appropriate trials i n l a b o r a t o r y animals. But in the final analysis, for the solution of most problems that deal with human physiology, pathology, and therapy, the investigative model in man. The problem is compounded for pediatrics, because the subject is wholly or partially unable to understand the significance of the investigation or the risk to himself. For most thoughtful and responsible persons there should be no doubt that such research is vital to the continued improvement of medical care and to the quality of living itself. What are the answers? These will not come unless the issues and their significance are brought out in the open\nwith clarity and objectivity--not only for the medical profession but, even more importantly, for the nonmedical community. At a time when confidence in most of society's endeavors is at such low ebb, little can be hoped for except as this sense of distrust can be dispelled. The layman has the basic responsibility. He can respond appropriately only as he has complete confidence in the integrity of the medical profession. He must be confident that only those things in medical research will be done which are essential, which have the potential for improving health status, and which do not carry undue risks for the individual. Those of us whose interest and activities are devoted to improving the lot of children are in a peculiarly privileged position. Not only are we presumed to be the guides for the health supervision of children and hence in a position to inform and interpret for their parents the limitations of current medical practice, but we have an equally important opportunity to influence the child's development of a sense of responsibility for o t h e r s - - a sense of social consciousness. But the medical profession does need outside help; little hope may be had for real gains except as there is strong support from the clergy and from the legal profession. All of us must put our houses in order. It is not a hopeless task but within the current social milieu it looms as a Herculean one. It might even be one of the means to restore confidence in our social structure. W.E.N.",

        "raw_content": "Sunderland 2021 bid\nRead Sharon Hodgson MP's report - News from Westminster - Oct-Nov 2016 number 89\nSharon Hodgson MPs report Oct-Nov 2016 number 89\nSharon Hodgson speaking in the Backbench Business Debate on the Government's upcoming Childhood Obesity Strategy - 21st January 2016\nAs Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for School Food, Sharon spoke about the need for school food to be seen as an integral part of the Government's upcoming Childhood Obesity Strategy by looking at the evidence already out there of the benefits of a healthy school meal, especially one that is free, along with addressing child holiday hunger - which has become a growing problem in the UK in recent years.\nRead Sharon's speech in Hansard here: Sharon Hodgson Childhood Obesity Strategy Debate 2016\nText pasted below:\nI congratulate the hon. Member for Totnes (Dr Wollaston) on proposing and securing this important debate, and she will be pleased to hear that I agreed with almost everything she said. Many here in the Chamber will be aware of my strongly held passion to provide all children with a hot and healthy school meal, especially one that is free. The debate around the Government\u2019s impending childhood obesity strategy, both here in Parliament and in the outside world, has focused on the reformulation of foods that are high in sugar and salt and the introduction of a sugar tax. Although I support those measures, I want quickly to discuss how school food can play a significant role in addressing the obesity crisis facing our children today.\nI want to say at the outset\u2014I am sure people are thinking this, if not here then definitely on social media\u2014that I am rather overweight myself and that some may say I should practise what I preach. I do try. But that is why I am so passionate about this agenda: I know how much harder this becomes as you get older. I was allowed to adopt bad habits that are hard to break, and that shows why we need to educate the next generation to do much better.\nSchool food has played a role in public policy for more than 100 years. It was first discussed in this place in 1906 when Fred Jowett, former Member of Parliament for Bradford West, used his maiden speech in the Chamber to launch his campaign to introduce free school meals when compulsory education was being rolled out. That led to the passing of the Education (Provision of Meals) Act 1906, which was originally Jowett\u2019s private Member\u2019s Bill.\nJowett\u2019s campaign was driven by his experience as a member of the Bradford school board, where he witnessed the malnourishment of children who then fell behind their more affluent peers. Here we are, more than 100 years later, and those arguments are still being made today.\nAndrew Gwynne (Denton and Reddish) (Lab):\nI was just thinking the same as my hon. Friend about how far we have come in some respects but not in others. She will be aware of the private Member\u2019s Bill of my right hon. Friend the Member for Birkenhead (Frank Field). Does she support it?\nYes, that private Member\u2019s Bill is an excellent initiative, and should be adopted by the Government and local authorities. It is very simple to share the data that we already have on families who are entitled to benefits, to ensure that the entitlement of their children to the pupil premium is not lost when universal free school meals are rolled out. That is a very important point.\nAlthough we do not always think about obesity in this way, it is a form of malnourishment. What we are seeing today is very similar to what we saw more than 100 years ago, with children lacking the right nutrients to see them living a healthy childhood and growing into healthy adults. That is especially concerning given that today more than one third of children are leaving school overweight or obese.\nThe school setting is one of the most important interventions in a child\u2019s life; it is where we nurture and educate future generations. Why should we not feed these children so that they are fuelled to receive the best education and life chances possible? That notion was strongly supported by the previous Labour Government, who introduced a raft of measures that addressed the food eaten by children in our schools. They included nutrition-based school food standards that provide children with the proper nutrition to learn, fully-costed plans to extend our universal free school meal pilots, and the introduction of healthy, practical cooking on the national curriculum.\nAlthough much, or all, of those measures were scrapped when the coalition Government were formed in 2010, it was very welcome when, in 2013, the school food plan was published, calling for the reinstatement of lots of those measures as well as new and improved measures in our schools to address the health of our children. Those included introducing food-based standards for all schools, training head teachers in the benefits of food and nutrition, improving Ofsted inspections on school food, and the roll-out of universal free school meals for primary school children, when funding was found.\nAs we know, that funding was found, thanks to David Laws and the right hon. Member for Sheffield, Hallam (Mr Clegg). Fortunately, universal infant free school meals were secured by the Chancellor in the comprehensive spending review. All those measures came out of concerns for the health of our children and the growing obesity crisis, especially given that 57% of children were not eating school lunches. Some were opting to take in packed lunches, only 1% of which met the nutritional standards of a hot lunch, while others were opting to go off site to eat junk food at local takeaways.\nAs research has found, health problems associated with being overweight or obese cost the NHS more than \u00a35 billion a year, and, with obesity rates continuing to rise for 11 to 15-year-olds, especially in deprived areas, it is now clearer than ever that we need seriously to address childhood obesity.\nGiving children a healthy and balanced diet during the school day can only be a positive intervention in helping to address obesity. I cannot stress how strongly I believe that one of the most important interventions to help address health issues in childhood is universal free school meals.\nHelen Whately (Faversham and Mid Kent) (Con):\nThe hon. Lady mentioned that children are consuming junk food from outlets near schools. Does she believe that councils should have powers, as part of planning guidance, to take action on junk food outlets being so close to schools?\nYes, I do. I really welcome that intervention, because it not only makes the point, but stresses it very strongly. Some councils are very good and introduce byelaws to ensure that burger vans cannot pull up outside a school, and that, if there is already a number of takeaway shops nearby, no more can open. Matters such as that need to be addressed by councils.\nThe pilots introduced by the previous Labour Government in Durham and Newham to look into the benefits of universal free school meals found many benefits to a child\u2019s health, and research continues now that we have universal infant school meals. The pilots in Durham and Newham found a 23% uptake in vegetable consumption at lunchtime and a steep decline in the typical unhealthy packed lunch foods. For example, there was a 16% decline in soft drinks and an 18% decline in crisps. Those are all-important figures that the Government should remember, and both the Department of Health and Department for Education should look further into how best they can use the vehicle of universal free school meals to help improve children\u2019s health.\nAlthough universal free school meals are protected in the Government\u2019s comprehensive spending review\u2014this followed a concerted campaign by school food campaigners, myself and others in the House\u2014there is another area that the Government must consider when looking to improve the health of our children: holiday hunger. Children are in school for just 190 days of the year, and the rest\u2014a total of 170 days\u2014is totally down to their parents. Some may say that that is how it should be and that when we lock the school gates for the holidays it is none of our business what children eat, whether they eat or what they get up to. None the less, with the growing use of food banks in school holidays and the reports that children return from the longer school holidays noticeably thinner and unhealthier, the issue is one that we can no longer ignore.\nIf there is a push for better food provision in our schools, then we need to be doing much more during the holidays so as not to undo the hard work that goes into improving the life chances of children during term time. That is why the school food all-party group, which I chair, has established a holiday hunger task group, which last year launched its \u201cFilling the Holiday Gap\u201d guidelines to provide organisations and local authorities wishing to provide food during holidays with the resources to offer healthy and nutritious food. Late last year, it published its update report, which called for action to be taken by the Government.\nWhen the Government\u2019s childhood obesity strategy is published, I hope that there will be significant mention of the benefits that school food, especially universal free school meals, can have on a child\u2019s health, and of how it can be used to address the growing childhood obesity crisis. There is evidence out there to support using universal free school meal provision to its fullest, instead of squandering its potential, to improve the health of our children.\nThis is a moment when the Government can really make a difference to children\u2019s lives and I hope that all options and avenues will be pursued so that children are given the healthy food that they need to fuel their education and to make them as healthy a version of themselves as possible so that they grow into fit and healthy adults.\nChildhood Obesity Strategy 21.01.16",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab THE LATEST CLIMATE REPORT, UNBURIED\nART DIRECTOR\u2019S CUT, NOVEMBER 28 \u00bb\nNovember 27, 2018 by Jennifer Reut\nBY JENNIFER REUT\nFor a long time, the Anacostia River didn\u2019t even have a name. It was just the Eastern Branch, the other, less promising section of Washington, D.C.\u2019s better known and more distinguished river, the Potomac. But it was always known as a fortunate course to the Nacotchtank, the Native Americans who used it as a trading post, and later to the European colonists who relied on the river\u2019s deep port at Bladensburg, Maryland, to carry tobacco, and to the generations of farmers, tradesmen, and laborers who never seemed to run out of fish, fowl, and game to hunt. For nearly nine miles, the Anacostia eased in and out with the tide, with no particular urgency, toward its confluence with the Potomac, tracing an unhurried flow through thousands of acres of tidal wetlands.\nOf course, that was before the port and the shipping channels silted up in the 19th century from agricultural misuse; before the river was flushed with sewage, pesticides, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that embedded in the sediment and eventually in the fish populations that fed local residents; before sections were channelized and controlled by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; before it was the site of an open-fire landfill that killed a seven-year-old child, Kelvin Tyrone Mock, and regularly spewed toxic smoke into the city\u2019s predominantly African American neighborhoods; before more than 600 tons of trash found its way into the river each year. Before all that, the Anacostia was abundant.\nThe tidal flow of the river is slow, stranding trash and other pollutants on its banks. Photo by Krista Schlyer.\nAnd so it may be again, if in a more modest way. This year, 2018, is the Year of the Anacostia, a celebration of the past 15 years of effort dedicated to transforming the river through economic, transportation, recreation, and environmental initiatives spearheaded by the District of Columbia, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and dozens of nonprofit citizen organizations. Fifteen years ago, when the city of Washington, D.C., released the Anacostia Waterfront Initiative Framework Plan, the river was a national embarrassment\u2014an example of environmental failures writ large onto the city\u2019s poorest and most vulnerable. Spurred by the 1972 Clean Water Act, the city is now aiming for a fishable, swimmable river by 2032, though the Anacostia Watershed Society, a local advocacy organization, is targeting 2025. Privately, some environmental advocates tell me the river may be swimmable even sooner.\nThe story of the Anacostia River (which finally acquired a name derived from indigenous nomenclature) could easily be written as a parable for all the woes we have visited on our urban waterways and on vulnerable communities trapped in the worst environmental calamities. Now poised on the edge of a hard-won environmental recovery, the river might become yet another case study in urban waterfront renewal and exploding economic development, followed by gentrification and displacement and a sense of regret, if not action, over lost opportunities and a lost sense of place.\nThat the Anacostia flows through the east side of the nation\u2019s capital, cutting off the city\u2019s poorest people and isolating their neighborhoods from its more prosperous mainland, as it were, further tempts observers to draw pointed parallels between the river\u2019s story and the country\u2019s inability to confront the interdependencies of race and environmental and economic justice. The eastside neighborhoods are predominantly female and African American. They experience the city\u2019s highest prevalence of asthma, cancer, and infant mortality, to name just a few of the significant health indicators that disproportionately affect residents. There is a chronic lack of services and economic investment.\nThose stories are all true, but the parallels can be heavy handed. They keep you from seeing the river as a unique human ecology. The river deserves a better story. The Anacostia deserves complexity.\nOne of the river\u2019s many tributary creeks and streams. Photo by Sahar Coston-Hardy, Affiliate ASLA.\nKrista Schlyer is a conservation photographer and writer who lives near the river\u2019s upper reaches in Maryland and has spent several years observing and photographing the Anacostia. Her book, River of Redemption: Almanac of Life on the Anacostia (Texas A&M University Press, 2018), documents the recovery of the river habitat, but also the persistence of pollution and continued environmental crises. It\u2019s the coexistence of these two qualities that makes the Anacostia unexpectedly compelling.\nThe recovery of the river ecosystem is most visible in the rebounding and persistence of wildlife, particularly in the stretch of the river around Kingman and Heritage Islands and the National Arboretum. For D.C. residents familiar with a different, more contaminated version of the river, the natural world Schlyer captures is nothing less than astonishing. A recent BioBlitz logged more than 550 species in the Anacostia watershed. Paddlers upriver may encounter bald eagles, osprey, cormorants, and beaver among the plastic bottles and occasional shopping carts. Schlyer says the reduction of trash has been the most visible change. \u201cIt\u2019s still there. It\u2019s still a huge problem. But it\u2019s noticeably different from 2010 when I really started doing this. That\u2019s a big thing, because it changes the way that people feel when they spend time on the river,\u201d she says. \u201cOf course, there are problems that are much deeper and more complex than trash.\u201d\nIn 2005, the D.C. government, the U.S. Department of Justice, the EPA, and the city\u2019s water authority entered into a consent decree intended to bring the city into compliance with the 1972 Clean Water Act, which requires cities to control point source pollutants that discharge into their waterways. One-third of Washington, D.C.\u2019s land\u2014primarily its historic core and older neighborhoods\u2014flushes sinks, tubs, and toilets into a combined sewer system that carries both sanitary and storm flows, rather than into a more modern separate storm sewer system. When those combined sewers are overwhelmed, which happens about 75 times a year on average, the combined sewer overflow (or CSO) drains directly into the Anacostia and Potomac Rivers, as well as Rock Creek, a waterway within a national park that flows through the city\u2019s central spine, at 47 outfalls in the District. According to the city\u2019s water authority, the CSOs dump nearly 2,142 million gallons into the Anacostia River and 1,063 million gallons into the Potomac annually. Rock Creek has about half that many annual overflow events resulting in 49 million gallons. Stormwater runoff includes street trash and automobile pollution such as metals and oils, as well as fecal bacteria from dogs and other animals, and it joins the sewage overflow in the combined sewers on their voyage into the Anacostia River. Advocates say the fecal bacteria dumped into the water from storm events is by far the Anacostia\u2019s largest source of bacterial pollution.\nImage courtesy Dolly Holmes.\nIn 2000, the Anacostia Watershed Society, along with several local organizations, filed a civil complaint against the city\u2019s water utility, DC Water (then the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority) to force it to address the CSO pollution in the river. Those advocacy groups were later joined by the EPA and the Justice Department. The result, a consent decree by a federal judge, required the city and the water authority to spell out how they were going to address the thousands of gallons of sewage and stormwater that were pouring into the river. That plan, now called the Clean Rivers Project, will reportedly cost $2.7 billion.\nJim Foster is the president of the Anacostia Watershed Society, one of the original parties in the consent decree. He says the agreement was particularly challenging because DC Water was required to reduce CSOs by a whopping 98 percent, but that just performing the preventive maintenance required by the consent decree actually reduced the sewage flows by half. Complicating the cleanup, however, was the unique governance relationship between the city and the federal government, which owns much of the land in and around the river. Washington, D.C., did not achieve what is called Home Rule authority\u2014the ability to nominally govern itself\u2014until 1973, and the federal government owns 29 percent of the District\u2019s land, much of it through the National Park Service, for which it pays no real estate taxes. Foster says this scenario has been catastrophic for the river. \u201cThe federal government designed and built the system, and then they just handed it over to the District. Didn\u2019t give them any money, any check, or anything,\u201d Foster says. \u201cSo the District was basically handed this hot mess.\u201d The financial relationship with the federal government isn\u2019t the only impact on the river. \u201cThe 176 square miles of watershed\u2014the federal government owns 10 percent of it. They alone, just through their land use practices, impact our water quality completely,\u201d Foster says.\nThe 1,200-acre Anacostia Park has bike trails, boat docks, and a skating rink, but its most valuable amenity is the opportunity for Washingtonians to connect to the Anacostia River. Photo by Sahar Coston-Hardy, Affiliate ASLA.\nInto this breach blossomed dozens of grassroots organizations that work on issues around the river\u2014environmental, certainly, but also education, job creation, resilience, youth development, and recreation, just to name a few. Erin Garnaas-Holmes is a project director for the Anacostia Waterfront Trust, a coordinating organization cofounded by former Mayor Anthony Williams, who is widely credited with developing the vision to clean up and revitalize the river during his tenure in the early 2000s. Garnaas-Holmes estimates that there are currently somewhere between 65 and 75 nonprofit and government agencies working on river issues in some capacity, to say nothing of the working groups, partnerships, coordinating committees, and other coalitions that have formed around common goals. Garnaas-Holmes has a background in urban planning and landscape architecture that serves him well as someone who must coordinate among many disparate groups, but it has also enabled him to see how issues like housing and water quality might need to be connected in the Anacostia River. \u201cHow do you combine environmental restoration with a conversation about neighborhood security and affordable housing and gentrification at large, and how do you create a process that incorporates those two things at once?\u201d he asks. Making those connections now and finding a way to have everyone pull in the same direction are critical to reaping the investment for the people, not just the river.\nThe original plan to enforce controls on combined sewer discharge, set in 2005, was primarily to construct tunnels to hold stormwater and catch up on maintenance. But in 2009, George Hawkins came on board as the new general manager of DC Water. Hawkins had ideas other than for tunnels. He advocated for implementing bioretention and other infiltration measures\u2014green infrastructure\u2014in some of the areas that ultimately drain to the river. Seth Charde is a landscape architect and the program manager for green infrastructure construction at DC Water. \u201cAround 2011, we started looking at green infrastructure as a solution for managing volume and preventing combined sewer overflows,\u201d he says. Green infrastructure could work in concert with tunnels for the Potomac and Rock Creek watersheds, but it was thought to be insufficient for the Anacostia, where the volume of stormwater was too great and the tidal river was too sluggish to discharge bacteria and reflow oxygenated water. Plus, the appetite for derailing the massive tunnel project was not great.\nThe consent decree was modified in 2016 to deploy detention and infiltration strategies where they seemed to make sense, but not along the critically polluted Anacostia sewershed, which is partly why there is now a combination of tunnels, detention, and green infrastructure strategies used to manage the city\u2019s stormwater along its different waterways. The main tunnels planned as part of the Clean Rivers Project are the Potomac, Anacostia, and Northeast Boundary tunnels. They bracket the city\u2019s combined sewer network on the outside as separate systems. When they are complete, DC Water expects to reduce stormwater volume in the rivers by 96 percent.\nEarlier this year, the Anacostia River Tunnel came online, the first of the three planned tunnels, which will all be completely built and functioning by 2023. The idea of the tunnels is fairly straightforward. The tunnels will capture stormwater and transport it beneath the river to the Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant on the east side of the Potomac, where it will be processed and released back into the river as cleaner water that flows to the Chesapeake Bay. The system is gravity fed through a series of diverters that move the water from the sewers.\nDC Water\u2019s stable of charismatic boring machines now numbers four. Image courtesy DC Water.\nSewers and sewerage might be the urban necessity least likely to acquire the patina of cool that ornaments more glamorous infrastructure such as bridges and electrical substations, but DC Water has been imaginative in its outreach to win over the public. Each of the massive tunnel boring machines (TBMs) used for excavating the tunnels was named, blessed (along with the workers), and given Twitter handles in a festive public media event. Like hot rods, watercraft, and hurricanes before 1979, tradition has dictated that TBMs must be named after women. The TBMs for the Clean Rivers Project include Lady Bird (for Claudia \u201cLady Bird\u201d Alta Taylor Johnson, an environmentalist and a former First Lady of the United States), Nannie (for Nannie Helen Burroughs, an educator), Lucy (for Lucy Diggs Slowe, the first female dean of Howard University), and the newest TBM, the Northeast Boundary Tunnel\u2019s Chris, which broke with tradition to honor Christopher Allen, the Clean Rivers assistant director who died before the project\u2019s completion. The TBMs are extensively documented on DC Water\u2019s YouTube channel.\nAfter the Anacostia tunnel opened this March, a very wet year in D.C. allowed the tunnel\u2019s efficacy to be tested quickly (in 2018, the city had reached the typical annual rainfall of 40 inches by late August). A few weeks after opening, the storm dumped around two inches of rain on the region, and DC Water proclaimed that the tunnel prevented 170 million gallons of stormwater and sewage from flowing into the Anacostia. As of this writing, DC Water estimates that the tunnel has prevented 2.4 billion gallons of combined sewage and 146 tons of trash from entering the Anacostia River.\nWater quality in the Anacostia, including measurements of dissolved oxygen, pH, chlorophyll, depth, and turbidity, is monitored by the city\u2019s Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE), but the department\u2019s data is supplemented considerably by local conservation organizations, including Anacostia Riverkeeper and the Anacostia Watershed Society. Both organizations do constant public outreach, hosting free weekly tours of the river, fishing nights, cleanups, and other activities meant to get people down to the river. They also keep the pressure on the city and federal government.\nAnacostia Riverkeeper tests primarily for E. coli, fecal bacteria that are highest in the river after storms overwhelm the CSOs, and they report their findings to the DOEE as well as through the Swim Guide app and other online channels. There are warning lights around for boaters, if you know where to look, but as the recreational attractions of the river increase, so does the likelihood that people might end up more wet than not. Technically, the river is classified not swimmable at any time, but people fish, dip their feet in, jump out of kayaks and off paddleboards, and generally find it difficult to keep their hands in the boat.\nThe city\u2019s bag tax has been good for the river. Money from the 2009 law, which required vendors to charge customers five cents for every plastic and paper bag used, funds a variety of efforts at the Anacostia, including education and stream restoration as well as the Anacostia Riverkeeper and Anacostia Watershed Society public tours, which are free and open to anyone from late spring to late fall. The fee has also probably decreased bag usage, greatly curtailing the number of plastic bags that make their way into the river waters. Trey Sherard, the riverkeeper at Anacostia Riverkeeper, says his group has seen a big reduction in the number of bags they pull out of trash traps since the tax was implemented. Now, if they could just ban plastic water bottles.\nThe bacteria from CSOs is the single biggest source of pollution in the river, but it is not the only one. The Anacostia\u2019s lazy tidal flow allows bacteria in the water, as well as chemical pollutants from industry and construction sites and plain old garbage, to stew, along with the previously existing toxic sediment that lines the river in some places. Addressing the polluted sediment has been a more complicated endeavor. Some of the sediment pollutants are from legacy industries or utilities that operated in the 19th century; others are from the federal government.\nThe DOEE has identified 14 potential cleanup sites along the river\u2014places where chemicals have leached into and bonded with the river sediment, and where study and remediation will have to roll out slowly. PCBs, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dioxins, pesticides such as Chlordane, and metals such as arsenic and mercury are among the chemicals found in these sites. Sherard says that DDT still shows up, running off the former agricultural land that is disturbed by all the new construction and embedding in the sediment. For people who are swimming or working in or near the water in those areas, or fishing, the level of chemical exposure is a concern.\nThe DOEE\u2019s Anacostia River Sediment Project focuses on a nine-mile tidal area of the Anacostia, but also the Washington Channel, a harbor zone that reaches the Jefferson Memorial, and a bit of the confluence where the river meets the Potomac. Areas of concern or \u201chot spots\u201d include the Navy Yard and the Southeast Federal Center, and Poplar Point, the site of the old gasworks, each adjacent to planned or completed new developments that the city has been banking on to bring in revenue.\nGretchen Mikeska is the coordinator for the Anacostia River Sediment Project and a longtime boater on the Anacostia, and has been collecting and reviewing data about how people use the river as part of DOEE\u2019s public outreach. She says the city is moving into the feasibility phase of the project now, and expects to present possible remedies and recommendations to the public sometime in the winter.\nIn 2000, then-Mayor Anthony Williams began to spell out the vision for the Anacostia Waterfront, an effort that brought together 19 city and federal entities that would eventually sign on to the \u201cwaterfront revitalization endeavor.\u201d In 2003, the city\u2019s office of planning, then staffed by Director Andrew Altman, with Toni L. Griffin as the deputy director for revitalization and neighborhood planning, developed the Anacostia Waterfront Initiative Framework Plan, a document that began to spell out a holistic vision for the waterfront\u2014parks, ecological recovery, improved transportation options, strong neighborhoods, better connections, new development, and economic revitalization. The vision document seemed bold at the time\u2014the river was foul and frightening, and its trash-strewn environs a mix of industrial wasteland and vacant lots\u2014but it picked up some of its strategies from cities like Boston and Barcelona, which had successfully redeveloped their polluted waterfronts into public amenities.\nIt\u2019s happening fast now\u2014at Buzzard Point, less than a mile upstream from the Anacostia\u2019s mouth, the new Audi Field, a $400 million soccer stadium for D.C. United, went up in a scant 16 months and opened in July of this year. The 11th Street Bridge Park, budgeted to cost around $50 million, is scheduled to break ground in 2019 and includes an innovative Equitable Development Plan that is being watched by many as a stop on resident displacement. Mayor Muriel Bowser recently tipped a shovel on the $489 million development around the site of RFK Stadium directly east of the U.S. Capitol above the river. Yards Park, a beautifully designed small public park between DC Water\u2019s new sustainability showplace building and a mixed-use development of restaurants and boardwalks, opened in 2011, and quickly began attracting families from nearby Capitol Hill.\nWith the 2008 financial crisis still echoing in the city\u2019s development sector, there has been decidedly more public conversation about the vulnerability of the river\u2019s adjacent neighborhoods to gentrification, a problem that is surely a sign of success in other forms. The popularity of one riverside project that recently opened, the District Wharf, a $2 billion mixed-use food and entertainment magnet next to the city\u2019s last remaining fresh seafood markets, has served to validate the concerns of some critical observers and brought more pressure on the city and developers to increase safeguards against displacement of existing businesses and residents.\nAll of these high-dollar marquee developments, with the exception of the 11th Street Bridge, fall on the west side of the river, the side that forms the edge of the now-prosperous federal city. Along the eastern bank is perhaps the river\u2019s greatest and least-known asset, the 1,200-acre Anacostia Park. The park extends the length of the river\u2019s eastern bank, and includes much of the northern reaches on the west side as well. In fact, the National Park Service runs and maintains the majority of the land that stretches down both sides of the river and its banks in the District. Among the park\u2019s assets are Kenilworth Park & Aquatic Gardens, the only skating pavilion owned by the National Park Service, several picnic areas, a boat dock, and many unprogrammed fields of play. Threaded through the park\u2019s open meadows is the Anacostia River Trail, a multimodal path that invites cyclists, scooters, and pedestrians.\nThe mile-long section of the waterfront (with this pier design by Michael Vergason Landscape Architects) was among the most expensive projects in Washington, D.C.\u2019s history. Photo by Sahar Coston-Hardy, Affiliate ASLA.\nBehind the park\u2019s open fields, and largely cut off from the river by a twist of highways, are some two dozen neighborhoods that make up the city east of the river. Largely African American and the victims of years of disinvestment and outright neglect, these are the neighborhoods with both the most to lose and the most to gain from the rebirth of the Anacostia River.\nGarnaas-Holmes says that the existing resource of Anacostia Park can be a way to secure the community in place if changes are focused on the existing residents, including the elderly and families with young children, rather than on attracting newcomers. \u201cIf they\u2019re done in a way that\u2019s targeting audiences that live right next to it and have the most to gain from it, I think if that\u2019s really intentional, it\u2019ll also help to steer away from flipping a park for a theoretical audience that leads to the lack of a sense of ownership and then slowly changes who uses the park over time.\u201d For a place like Anacostia Park, that requires using existing resources in new ways.\nAkiima Price is an environmental consultant whose work focuses on connecting urban communities of color with nature, particularly those experiencing stress or trauma. In Anacostia Park, she is working on programs to help the park service and its partners strengthen the park as a community resource, not just an amenity. She echoes the sentiments of Garnaas-Holmes and others working in the east river communities in emphasizing that there are ways the park and its river partners can better meet the needs of local residents, and she is both strategic and innovative in her approach to developing opportunities to connect people to the park and the river in a way that benefits both. That could just be tweaking what organizations are already doing, such as boat tours, to offer a place for other populations, such as those re-entering society after incarceration. \u201cMaybe it\u2019s a father-son nature club, with the goal of the fathers and the sons healing their relationship\u2014not so much seeing the eagle, though that will happen and be a part of what makes that so transformative.\u201d From there, says Price, a connection to the Anacostia River as a stage for that transformation might yield a sense of stewardship down the road. And the river will always need people to rave about it.\nPhoto by Krista Schlyer.\nThe Year of the Anacostia has allowed the city to tout what\u2019s been accomplished since the Anacostia River framework plan was published in 2003, to bring new people to the water, and to reintroduce the uneasy longtime residents to the improving river. As the sediment removal project begins to move forward, there\u2019s a possibility that a yet-to-be-imagined version of the Anacostia River might burst forth from its toxic mudflats in the near future. But there\u2019s a tension between the painstaking rehabilitation efforts, efforts that have increased biodiversity, restored wetlands, re-established habitat, curtailed the flow of millions of pounds of sewage, and improved water quality, and the voracious pace of construction nearby that threatens to undo the work that is just beginning to change the experience of the river. Jim Foster, not one to mince words, is sanguine about the pace of change. \u201cThis is a generational thing. We did this over 250 years. We\u2019re not gonna solve it over the next four years.\u201d\nJennifer Reut is the senior editor at the magazine.\nPosted in BROWNFIELDS, CITIES, ECOLOGY, ECONOMICS, ENVIRONMENT, FEATURES, HEALING GARDENS, HEALTHY COMMUNITIES, IN THE ISSUE, PARKS, PEOPLE, PHOTOGRAPHY, PLANNING, PLANTS, POLLUTION, REAL ESTATE, RECREATION, REGION, RESILIENCE, RIVER RESTORATION, SHORELINE, SOIL, TRANSLATED, WATER | Tagged 11th Street Bridge Park, African-American, Akiima Price, Anacostia Park, Anacostia River, Anacostia River Sediment Project, Anacostia Riverkeeper, Anacostia Waterfront Initiative Framework Plan, Anacostia Waterfront Trust, Anacostia Watershed Society, Andrew Altman, Anthony Williams, asthma, Audi Field, bacteria, bag tax, bald eagles, beaver, better connections, BioBlitz, biodiversity, Bladensburg, Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant, Buzzard Point, cancer, Channelized, Chesapeake Bay, chlorophyll, Chris, Christopher Allen, Claudia \u201cLady Bird\u201d Alta Taylor Johnson, Clean Rivers Project, Clean Water Act, combined sewer overflow, combined sewer system, consent decree, cormorants, D.C.

What better way to immerse oneself in the natural history of the region than to read Schlyer\u2019s writing as she develops a works-and-days hike through many moons of a seasonal year? The description of her Mount Rainier, Maryland, home becomes an outstanding picture of the local wildlife in the area; her personal walk along the Underground Railroad of woods and bramble in the Sandy Spring section of the Northwest Branch of the river stands out as the strongest explanation of the freedom experience that I have read; and her migratory restlessness (Zugunruhe) moon chapter has me still amazed at the ability of birds and animals to travel to their areas of the Earth for reproduction and then to return to the Anacostia River. Schlyer\u2019s work returns the Anacostia River area and the Bladensburg waterfront to its Garden of Eden pristine state before the arrival of the English Colonial Empire of clear cutting of timber and the planting of tobacco.\non December 5, 2018 at 4:39 am | Reply THE RIVER BENEATH THE RIVER \u2013 iSmartNetwork Magazine\n[\u2026] Read more: landscapearchitecturemagazine.org [\u2026]",

Every shift is different and poses new challenges that incorporate many unknown factors and circumstances. Most people know the inherent dangers officers face on a daily basis; it is our responsibility to be mentally and physically prepared to answer the calls of duty without hesitation.\nProudest moment: Graduating from the police academy is my proudest moment. It took dedication, commitment and four months of hard work.\nOn the job lessons: I believe that there are valuable learning experiences for me each day, as I am able to learn from training, my peers and the public.\nWhy did you become a police officer? I have always found the criminal justice system both necessary and interesting. I pursued a degree in Criminal Justice. After graduating from college, I applied to be a police officer for the City of Scottsdale.\nBalancing service and family: I always make sure that I do what is necessary to be fully prepared to serve each day. At the same time, I dedicate my free time to maintaining the relationships I have with my family and friends.\nSatisfaction of serving: I derive the greatest satisfaction when an individual or family expresses their gratitude and thanks for the service I have provided to them.\nNext professional goal: I want to continue to grow as a police officer, which may give me future opportunities to explore becoming a detective.\nIn closing: To serve, it is important to put others first and strive to protect those who rely on you for a safe community. Nothing is impossible. Always follow your dreams!",

        "title": "Mother\u2019s Day Dirty Little Secret: Estrangement",
        "raw_content": "Mother\u2019s Day Dirty Little Secret: Estrangement\nPosted on May 8, 2011 November 11, 2015 by Bob Brody\nHere, in honor of Mother\u2019s Day, is an essay about my mother that appears today (in slightly shorter form) in the New York Daily News:\nMother\u2019s Day is engraved in our hearts with warm images of families coming together to celebrate motherhood. In the classic holiday scenario, we give Mom a card and a gift, take her out for dinner and snap a few photos. We honor her for doing a job \u2013 giving birth to us, caring for us, loving us \u2013 that no one else is nearly as fit to do.\nBut this American tradition, now 106 years old, has a flip side, seldom seen and little talked about and none too photogenic. For just as surely as some families today come together to pay tribute to this singular figure, others remain apart, fractured by the ugly conundrum we call estrangement.\nNobody has statistics on how many mothers and children are alienated from each other, nor whether such ruptures are on the increase \u2013 some psychologists, based on anecdotal evidence, suspect they are \u2013 much less exactly why these breakaways happen in the first place. Certainly websites, support groups and online chat rooms have cropped up expressly to address mother-child estrangement. Yet this phenomenon remains little-researched, little-discussed and much-misunderstood.\nAs it happens, I\u2019m an expert in estrangement. In 1999 I cut myself off from my own mother. Why we fell out I will skip here. Enough was enough. But in a sense, why is almost beside the point. Why makes no real difference.\nI lost track of my mother for the next 10 years \u2013 one-eighth of her life and almost one-sixth of mine. No visits, no phone calls, no letters. I had no idea even whether she was still alive. I had no wish to hurt her, only to spare myself, along with my wife and children, any further hurt. But all the while, I struggled with my decision. Was I doing right? Was this helping?\nSo it goes for so many others. The causes are many \u2013 abuse, alcoholism and conflicts over everything from money and career choices to divorce, remarriage and sexual orientation. Estrangement springs from a single incident or is cumulative. The family itself has changed sharply over the last 40 years, too. Relaxed divorce laws, ever-increasing geographic mobility and the never-ending American pursuit of happiness have granted us a new freedom of choice. If anything bothers us, we want out.\nThat\u2019s why today someone somewhere has somehow gone missing, leaving a chair at the dinner table empty.\nSuddenly, about two years ago, I stopped believing I could go the rest of my life without seeing my mother again \u2013 one of us could die, denying us the opportunity \u2013 and about two years ago I decided once again that enough was enough, only in reverse. Our rift no longer seemed to serve any purpose. I wanted to get together with her before it was too late. We could start fresh. I sent my mother an e-mail. I told her I missed her and suggested we get together.\nSo, on a Saturday afternoon in April, 2009, the sky blue, the sun bright, I drove to the northern New Jersey town where I grew up to reconnect with the person once the most important in my life.\nWe met at the front door. Now 80, she seemed a little shorter, her hair all white, but still beautiful. We hugged each other.\n\u201cYou look good,\u201d I said.\n\u201cYou look good, too,\u201d she said. \u201cMy handsome son.\u201d\nWe walked to a nearby diner to have lunch. There, in a booth under a skylight, we filled each other in on our lives over the last 10 years. She had a boyfriend. I had a new job. My two kids, absent from her life for a decade, had grown into adults. I also explained my abrupt change of heart.\n\u201cEverything that happened before no longer matters,\u201d I said. \u201cWho did what to whom \u2013 it makes no difference. None of it means anything anymore.\u201d My mother nodded her understanding.\n\u201dWe\u2019ve both made mistakes,\u201d I said. \u201cWe\u2019ve caused each other and ourselves enough pain. Nobody has to forget anything \u2013 or forgive anything, either. I\u2019m here today so I can see you and you can see me. That\u2019s it. Let\u2019s leave it at that. At this moment that\u2019s all I care about \u2014 that we\u2019re together now.\u201d\n\u201cOkay,\u201d my mother said. She reached across the table to pat my hand. \u201cOkay,\u201d she repeated, louder, more emphatically.\nEstrangement remains largely a taboo topic in American life, a stigma, a dirty little secret, a silent epidemic. It flies in the face of all those homespun homilies about families sticking together through thick and thin. But I\u2019m here to tell you such splits are rarely the answer. More likely, they\u2019re a stopgap, a solution that only creates new problems.\nSome of us deserve a second chance to honor our family commitments. I believe that to be true for children and mothers alike. Enough is indeed enough. For most of us, it should never be too late for Mother\u2019s Day to feel like Mother\u2019s Day again.\nP.S. \u2014 Here\u2019s the piece that ran in The News: http://www.nydailynews.com/opinions/2011/05/08/2011-05-08_estranged_from_my_mother_no_more.html\nP.S. \u2014 Have you gone through anything similar?

        "title": "Book Reviews Feb 2014 | Library Mom",
        "raw_content": "Book Reviews Feb 2014\nThis year I am trying to read at least 300 books again. I\u2019m doing pretty well so far, having read 39 books. I\u2019m hoping to tackle more Newbery books in audiobook format as they are usually so short, and I\u2019m on a bit of an audiobook lull at the moment (at least in regards to adult books). I finally finished Book 3 of the Song of Ice and Fire series (Game of Thrones to the uninitiated). I\u2019m currently reading an ARC called The Setting Sun: A Memoir of Empire and Family Secrets by Bart Moore-Gilbert. I\u2019m currently listening to another Newbery-winning book The Higher Power of Lucky by Susan Patron.\nAs always, I rate things from 1 \u2013 5 stars, one being the lowest and 5 being the highest. The Caldecott Challenge, which I started last May, is my attempt to read all of the Caldecott Honors and Award winners from 1938 \u2013 the present. I\u2019m also completing a Newbery Challenge, where I\u2019m reading all the award winners and at least one honor book. I will include some photos of illustrations that I like with the reviews.\nThe Goodnight Train written by June Sobel, illustrated by Laura Huliska-Beith\nFeeding into my son\u2019s train fascination, this book is another great example of imaginative writing. Set to a rhyming text, the story is about a train full of beds and small children that is going through a magical countryside, on the way to Dreamland. My son loves this book and has requested it pretty much every night for a week. Recommended for ages 2-6, 4 stars.\nI Love Trains! written by Philomen Sturges and illustrated by Shari Halpern\nThis was a cute but very simple book about a young boy who loves trains, not only the different parts of the train, but also because his daddy works in the caboose of one. I like the brightly colored blocky illustrations, which are perfect for toddlers. Recommended for ages 2-6, 3 stars.\nNo T. Rex in the Library written by Toni Buzzeo, illustrated by Sachiko Yoshikawa\nI like books about the library and am always on the lookout for picture books in that setting. I figured this one would interest my son as it has dinosaurs. A woman puts her daughter Tess in time-out for ten minutes for being a \u201clittle beastie\u201d in the library and causing mischief, and while there Tess imagines a T Rex coming out of one of the books she knocked over and causing plenty more mischief and mayhem in the library, including ripping books. For this, Tess punishes the dinosaur by putting it in time out and back inside its book. I get that they\u2019re trying to teach kids to have good behavior in the library, but that message kind of gets lost about halfway through the book. My son loves it though, mostly just because there is a roaring rampaging dinosaur, so this book gets three stars from me instead of two. Recommended for ages 3-6, 3 stars.\nThe Boy Who Loved Trains written by Jill Kalz, illustrated by Sahin Erkocak\nI picked this one up because my son likes trains. Not the best book, as I thought the story fell a little flat and the illustrations weren\u2019t that good, but it would be good for a beginning reader, which is the intended audience. The book is about a young boy who is obsessed with trains, in fact the only words he will say is \u201cWoo! Woo!\u201d. It is his birthday and he gets a new present from his aunt, a shiny race car, so soon afterwards he is obsessed with cars and the only words he will say is \u201cVroom! Vroom!\u201d. My son enjoyed the book more than me. Recommended for ages 3-6, 2 stars.\nThe Little Engine that Could written by Watty Piper, illustrated by Loren Long\nI never really wanted to read this book, though of course I knew about it as it has been around since 1930. Again, influenced by my son, I picked it up in desperation after not being able to find many train books at the library. I actually enjoyed the story, though it is rather lengthy for reading out loud to small children. My son loved the story though, so that made it worth it.\nA small happy train is pulling cargo of toys and good things to eat for the boys and girls on the other side of the mountain, when he suddenly breaks down. The toys ask three passing trains to help them to get to the children before daybreak, but each refuse. When all seems lost, a fourth smaller train happens by and she agrees to take them, though she has never hauled cargo before. All the way up the mountain, she chugs \u201cI Think I Can\u201d to herself, and manages to make it to the top. The toys are ecstatic as they make their way down to the little town in the valley of the mountain. This is a cute story that teaches children about determination and perseverance. Recommended for ages 3-7, 4 stars.\nThe Caboose Who Got Loose written and illustrated by Bill Peet\nI\u2019ve been fascinated by Bill Peet ever since I read his autobiography for the Caldecott Challenge. I knew he wrote some children\u2019s books, but had no idea that he did so many (34 total). His work reminded me a lot of Dr Seuss, with the crazy rhymes for the book. I guess you have to get pretty creative when working with the word \u201ccaboose\u201d. He worked for Walt Disney and you can definitely see the influence in the way he draws houses and even Katy Caboose, from his work on the animated shorts Susie the Little Blue Coupe and The Little House. I loved the rhyming storyline and it had great illustrations. As this was a train-related book, my son kept wanting me to read it over and over to him.\nKaty spends her day at the end of a very long freight train and longs to be free and surrounded by nature. It is only after she is near a switchman\u2019s house that wants to be her because her life looks so glamorous that she gains appreciation for herself. Her wish for freedom is unexpectedly granted when the train she is hooked up to is coming up a steep curvy mountain track, and she is accidentally uncoupled. She flies off the track and is caught between two evergreen trees and the rescue team is unable to find her. And so she lives out the rest of her days in nature with a great view. Highly recommended for ages 3-7, 5 stars.\nSmokey written and illustrated by Bill Peet\nYay for Bill Peet! While I didn\u2019t like this one as much as Katy the Caboose, my son kept wanting me to read it. Smokey is an old engine who is a bit worn down. After overhearing some other engines talk about how will be retired to the junk yard, he decides to go on an adventure. He is chased by Native Americans who misinterpret his smoke signals (this part was a little racist, but the book was written in the 1960s, so congruent with the times). He is almost run off the rails by a fast freight train and end up in a farmer\u2019s duck pond. After the farmer complains to the North Central Line, they come and rescue him and bring him back to the train yard. His smoke stack has been bent in his fall into the pond, and now he can puff letters and numbers. A teacher returning from summer vacation sees the letters and gets her school board to buy Smokey from the North Central Line, where the kids fix him up. He goes from a sad black and white engine to a colorful one, after the kids paint him. He learns simple words and happily teaches the kids for many years. Recommended for ages 3-7, 3 1/2 stars.\nSteam Train, Dream Train written by Sherrie Duskey Rinker and illustrated by Tom Lichtenheld\nI loved the book Goodnight Goodnight Construction Site, as it was a great book for my son, so when I found out the author/illustrator did a train book, I leapt at the chance to read it. She did not disappoint. How can kids not love a book with trains, animals, and dinosaurs! The book tells the rhyming story of a group of animals who help load a train with supplies and when the finish, they board the train and go to sleep. My son especially liked the polar bears and penguins loading ice cream, the elephants loading colorful paint and the dinosaurs. It has fantastic illustrations that really draw you into the story. Recommended for ages 3-7, 5 stars.\nSidney, Stella, and the Moon written and illustrated by Emily Yarlett\nI picked this one up in the New Book section of the Children\u2019s Room. It looked interesting and it was about the moon, which my son loves reading about, so I gave it a try. I must have British book radar, because I always seem to gravitate towards British writers, even if I have no idea where they are from are to begin with. I really liked the artwork, which was a blend of digital art and collage. The story was kind of boring though.\nSidney and Stella are twins who do everything together. One day, they are fighting over a bouncy ball, when it slips from their grasp, bounces way up and shatters the moon. What are two children to do! Why, they must fix it before anyone can find out. Of course, it is all over the news so it is not a secret for long. Sidney eventually finds a partially eaten round of cheese to replace the moon and with his sister\u2019s help, the put it back in the sky. Recommended for ages 4-7, 3 stars.\nNo Such Thing written and illustrated by Bill Peet\nThis was an odd book. It was almost like Peet was trying too hard to be like Dr. Seuss with his descriptions of crazy original creatures and their abilities. My favorites were the colorful narcissistic horses called Fandangoes and the Snoofs, mountain goats whose horns are so long they can use them for skis. Recommended for ages 4-7, 2 1/2 stars.\nThe Adventures of Obadiah written and illustrated by Brinton Turkle\nI love Obadiah! He is so precious. I was so excited after having read the Caldecott honor winning book Thy Friend, Obadiah by the same author, that he did a few more books on our Quaker boy Obadiah.\nIn this book, Obadiah keeps getting in trouble with his teacher and family for telling outrageous fibs. The family\u2019s big event in the story is a sheep shearing and fair, where they go with all the other Quaker families to socialize. Obadiah is warned against going to the sideshow tents. While there, he is separated from his family but finally makes his way back to them at the end of the day. He tells them what seems like another crazy story about him riding an out-of-control sheep when he was saved by a sideshow performer who showed him around the area. He got to see fire-eaters and go dancing. That is pretty exciting stuff for a young Quaker boy. They don\u2019t believe him, until his story is confirmed by a neighbor. Recommended for ages 4-8, 5 stars.\nTea Rex: A Young Person\u2019s Guide to Tea Party Etiquette written and illustrated by Molly Idle\nI really picked this up for me rather than my son, though I thought he might like the dinosaur. I enjoyed the concept of this book, but the execution would be hard for small children to enjoy. A lot of the story ideas were visual, which were hard to explain to a two-year old. It would be fun for a slightly older child who can pick up on visual clues.\nThe book is a guide for children who want to have a tea party and shows the correct and not-so-correct ways to handle guests and put on a successful tea party. As a child who grew up with tea parties, both real and imagined, I found the idea of a huge roaring T Rex trying to be genteel and hold a cup of tea hilarious, and the pictures made it even more so. Recommended for ages 5-8, 4 stars.\nThe Flying Tortoise: An Igbo Tale retold by Tololwa M. Mollel, illustrated by Barbara Spurll\nI found this book at the library book sale this weekend and picked it up because I love folktales and my son loves turtles. The story reminded me of the West African stories about Anansi the spider, as he is also a trickster, although Mbeku the tortoise seems much more greedy and unredeemable compared to Anansi.\nThe story comes from the Igbo people of Nigeria. Mbeku the tortoise had a beautiful shiny shell. He tricked the birds into giving him their feathers and becoming their spokesman after they were all invited to the Skyland for a feast. Mbeku got his friend the lizard to create some wings for him, which he uses to fly up with the birds and eat all their food. In punishment, they destroy his wings and leave him stranded in the sky. He plans on jumping down, but after the birds learn that he has fooled them for a third time, they sabotage his soft landing. Mbeku falls and breaks his shell, and his friend the lizard tries to repair it but it is now rugged and ugly. Recommended for ages 5-10, 4 stars.\nFish in the Air written and illustrated by Kurt Wiese\nI managed to slip this short read into our bedtime story routine in one night. The book won a 1949 Caldecott Honor. This is only my second Kurt Wiese book but he seems to predominantly write books about China and the books are a little dated, as evidenced by the clothing in the story. This was a cute story about a young Chinese boy named Young Fish who wants to fly the biggest Fish kite. His father, Old Fish, buys it for him and on the way to flying it, Young Fish promptly gets swept away by a strong wind and end up in the river. He is caught by a napping fisherman, and rescued by his father. He quickly decides that he would much rather have the smallest fish kite. Recommended for ages 3-7, 3 stars.\nBambino the Clown written and illustrated by Georges Screiber\nI wasn\u2019t a huge fan of this book because it just came off as super creepy and slightly pedophilic to me, though I know it wouldn\u2019t have been considered this way when it was written. It won a 1948 Caldecott Honor. Bambino the Clown is a man who sees a little boy crying and decides to take him under his wing by inviting him back to his house to see how he turns himself into a clown. He is invited to the circus the next day and we are treated to Bambino\u2019s show with his seal companion Flapper. Recommended for ages 4 \u2013 7, 2 \u00bd stars.\nChildren and YA\nThe House of Hades (Heroes of Olympus #4) by Rick Riordan, narrated by Nick Chamain\nThis book was a non-stop action fest, but also had plenty of character development as well to keep the story going. As usual, this series introduces me to lesser-known Greek and Roman mythology that I might not have seen unless I was very thorough. I applaud Rick Riordan for his addition of a gay main character, something I\u2019ll admit I wasn\u2019t expecting from a well-known children/young adult author who also happens to be Southern (I am also Southern and unfortunately we are not known for our open-mindedness \u2013 with exceptions of course).\nThe story picked up right where The Mark of Athena left off. Frank, Piper, Hazel, Leo, and Jason are taking the Athena Parthenos statue to Epirus, Greece to stop Gaia and close Doors of Death from the mortal side. Nico has joined the crew as well, as is the only one who can locate the doors. Meanwhile, Percy and Annabeth who fell into Tartarus in the last book are attempting to close the Doors from the Underworld. Only no mortal has ever survived walking through Tartarus, so there is a lot of pressure from their end. All of the demigods do a lot of growing up in this book, which in Frank\u2019s case is literal and everyone else\u2019s figuratively. The Greek and Roman gods are warring with each other, so they\u2019re no help at all. The demigods must rely on themselves and each other if they are going to get through this. The book ended on a cliffhanger though, so I\u2019m dying to know what happens next (have to wait a year till next book comes out L). Recommended for ages 10+, 5 stars.\nThe Dark-thirty: Southern Tales of the Supernatural written by Patricia C. McKissack, illustrated by Brian Pinkney\nI probably would not have picked this book up except that it won a 1993 Newbery Honor and a Coretta Scott King Author award. But I\u2019m very glad I did. The book is a fascinating glimpse into African-American folktales from the Southeastern US. I\u2019ve never heard any of them. Patricia McKissack is a fabulous storyteller. There\u2019s a little bit of everything in this book: ghosts, voodoo, Sasquatch, daring escapes, demons and protector spirits and monsters. The woodcut illustrations by Brian Pinkney are great, though I wish there were more of them. My favorites were \u201cWe Organized\u201d, \u201cThe Woman in the Snow\u201d, and \u201cThe Gingi\u201d. Recommended for ages 7-12, 5 stars.\nA Single Shard written by Linda Sue Park, narrated by Graeme Malcolm\nAt first, I was wondering why they picked this particular narrator to voice a story about a young Asian boy, but Graeme Malcolm had a very nice range of different voices and intonations and did an excellent job. I could picture Tree Ear in my mind after listening to his narration and really rooting for him to succeed. This book made me smile and cry, but still ended on a happy note.\nTree Ear is an orphaned boy about twelve years old who lives with his friend one-legged Crane-Man under a bridge in Ch\u2019ulp\u2019o, a small Korean village, a place known for its fine celadon pottery. One day, Tree Ear\u2019s curiosity gets the better of him and he accidentally breaks a piece done by Min, the finest potter in the village. As penance, he has to do back-breaking labor for nine days for free. After completing this, he is taken on as an apprentice to Min, though he will not let him throw a pot on the pottery wheel. To create a beautiful vase is Tree Ear\u2019s dream, so he is heartbroken. One day, an emissary comes to the village to select a potter for a royal commission. One of the other potters in town Kang has created a new style of incising designs into the pottery. He gets a royal commission because it is new and different, but the emissary prefers Min\u2019s work as Kang is not as skillful. Tree Ear is charged with bringing two vases with the incised style done in Min\u2019s more skilled hand to the emissary. Will he be able to make it? If he does, will he finally learn how to throw pots? To find out, read this beautifully written book, which won a 2002 Newbery award. Recommended for ages 9-12, 5 stars.\nLibrary Wars: Love and War, Volume 9 written and illustrated by Kiiro Yumi\nI had totally forgot about this series until I was browsing manga on my local library\u2019s website the other day. This series is a little predictable, but I still enjoy it and want Kasahara to find true love, whether or not that turns out to be her \u201cprince\u201d.\nIn this volume, Kasahara is acting as bait for a groper in the library, who felt up the deaf girl Marie. Once the groper is caught, Marie is given a whistle to blow in an emergency. Since finding out that Instructor Dojo is her \u201cprince\u201d, things have been awkward between the two, especially after she blurts out that she\u2019s grown out of her prince one day. The test for the next rank of Sergeant is coming up, and Kasahara and Tezuki have to take a written test and a skills test, which involves entertaining a group of kids. Kasahara passes the skills test with flying colors, and barely passes the written (thanks to tutoring from Instructor Dojo), while Tezuki aces the written and manages to hold the attention of the children. Kasahara realizes that despite her best efforts, she may be falling for Instructor Dojo for real. Recommended for ages 13+, 4 stars\nIn this volume, the enemy of the Library Task Force (the Media Betterment Committee) is censoring a piece of artwork in the Museum of Modern Art in the hometown of Kasahara, and she is chosen along with Dojo and the others to represent the Task Force in the town. They are going to protect the freedom of speech of the artist. The only problem with this is that Kasahara\u2019s parents do not like the idea of her being in the Task Force to begin with, as they say it is unladylike. Once there, Kasahara is tormented by the female librarians, who do not like that she is there with the Task Force. She manages to work her way through it and holds her own, which Dojo praises. The bonus manga was very fascinating, and makes me wonder if Dojo really likes Kasahara as well. Can\u2019t wait till the next volume comes out! Recommended for ages 13+, 4 stars.\nMadam: A Novel of New Orleans by Cari Lynn and Kelli Martin\nAt the King\u2019s Table: Royal Dining Through the Ages by Susanne Groome\nAs I am fascinated by British Royalty and food history, this seemed like a very appropriate topic for me to read. It gives a history of royal dining from the time of Richard II in the mid 14th century to the present day. As far as styles of cooking goes, there was a lot of French influence on the British court, depending on whether or not they were at war with the French at that time or not. The earlier courts pretty much up until King George II had prodigious appetites, then there was a lull during the reign of Mad King George III due to his illness and his wife\u2019s pickiness. The banqueting picked up again during George IV\u2019s reign as he was a prodigious eater, followed by a lull during the Victorian era due to Victoria and Albert\u2019s strict upbringing of their children, and renewed again by their son Edward VI. He was a lover of all things French and it was during the Edwardian era that the French style of cooking really came into prominence in Great Britain. Once you get into modern times, the World Wars effectively put an end to the multiple-course menus. I loved all the illustrations in the book, which really set the stage for the history. Highly recommended, 5 stars.\nA Storm of Swords: A Song of Ice and Fire #3 by George R.R. Martin\nI thought the last book was crazy, but this one was even more so. I ended up giving this book 4 1/2 instead of 5 stars because it really dragged in the beginning and middle. I guess that\u2019s because he was building up so much storyline to really sock it to you at the end, and boy did he. I mean how ballsy is the author to kill off 3 \u00bd major characters (the half part is explained in the epilogue) and at least two secondary characters all in the second half of the story!\nThis book picks up about where the other book left off. First, we visit the Starks and family, which leads into the rest of the major characters. Catelyn Stark has gotten this crazy idea in her head that if she releases Jaime Lannister to the care of Brienne of Tarth (her sworn protector after Renly Baratheon was killed in the previous book), and delivers him to King\u2019s Landing that Cersei will give her back Sansa and Arya. So she does and that causes a mighty uproar with her son Robb, the King in the North, as he was a valuable bargaining chip. We actually get to see Jaime as a real person and not just as the \u201cKingslayer\u201d. Jon Snow has joined the wildings, under orders from a Night Watch superior, to see what they are planning for the Black Brothers. He definitely gets a little life experience under his belt after he claims Ygritte for his own. I found the character of Mance Rayder to be particularly interesting as there were only hints of his character before. John really came into his own in this book and grew up a bit.\nArya is still on the run and falls into the hands of Lord Beric Dondarrion, the lightning lord, who runs with group of commoners. He is another follower of the Lord of Light. She spends some time with the Hound, who has been on the run ever since Stannis Baratheon was defeated at the Battle for King\u2019s Landing. She also manages to tick a few names off her death wish list, some through her actions and some through others. Bran, Hodor and the Reed heirs (retainers of his father) have escaped from Winterfell and are heading North. King Joffrey breaks his marriage plans to Sansa and is engaged to be married to Margery Tyrell, the former wife of Renly Baratheon. Sansa spends most of the book being bullied by Joffrey and his thugs. After the Battle for King\u2019s Landing, and despite his great role in protecting the city, Tyrion is essentially discarded and his father Tywin takes over the role of Hand to the King. Daenerys is becoming totally bad-ass after conquering a few eastern cities and getting a warrior-eunuch army to follow her. The dragons are growing up.\nDavos Seaworth gets rescued and brought back to \u201cKing\u201d Stannis who first throws him in prison and then names him Hand of the King. The Others, the undead horde that keep following the Night\u2019s Watch, attack the small army set up by Lord Commander Mormont. Samwell Tarly kills one of the Others with an obsidian blade given to him by Jon. Afterwards, they are staying at Craster\u2019s (a wildling who sometimes gives aid to the Black Brothers) house, when some of the remaining Brothers rebel, and kill Mormont. Samwell manages to escape with the help of Gilly, who has just given birth. He must bring them back to Castle Black to safety. To find out more about the story, read this excellent third book in A Song of Ice and Fire series. 4 1/2 stars.\nMurder as a Fine Art written by David Morrell\nI picked this book on a recommendation from one of my favorite historical fiction/mystery YA authors, Y.S. Lee. She had read the book and gave it positive reviews for accuracy and I love this type of book so decided to give it a try. I had no idea that the author originally became famous for writing First Blood, the book that first introduced Rambo to the world. Morrell was very thorough in researching for this book, and shares his sources in the back. Although I had never read anything about Thomas de Quincey, I had heard of his famous book. I am definitely interested after reading this book.\nA man brutally murders a young family and their servant in the East End of London and the city\u2019s newly created Scotland Yard is on the case. Inspector Ryan and his associate Constable Becker are assigned to the case and begin to explore what might have happened. Eventually they decide to involve the author Thomas de Quincey in the investigation. He is the author of the infamous book The Confessions of an English Opium Eater, the world\u2019s first real book about drug addiction, a very taboo subject during the Victorian era. Thomas de Quincy believes the murders are from a copycat killer of an earlier set of murders done in the same area of Ratcliffe Highway. They are meant to cause panic and riots so that the police won\u2019t be able to catch who is responsible. De Quincey and his daughter Emily help Ryan and Becker, but De Quincey is himself implicated in the murders due to his continued laudanum use and the fact that he knows so much about the earlier killings. Will Ryan and Becker be able to stop the murderer before he strikes again? Will they be able to solve the case and free de Quincey? To find out, read this incredible Victorian thriller. 5 stars.\nHow to Cook Everything Vegetarian: Simple Meatless Recipes for Great Food by Mark Bittman\nHow can you not love a man who is both detailed in research and precise in cooking directions? I\u2019ve been a fan of Mark Bittman for awhile, and after reading his VB6 book and liking the idea but wanting more vegetarian options, I got this book. This book is a behemoth at about 900 pages, but like I said before, Bittman is very thorough in his description of every kind of vegetable and fruit imaginable, plus whole grains, different kinds of breads and a small dessert section. I figure I found at least 20 new ways to prepare things, but with recipes that won\u2019t overwhelm me. Some of the recipes I\u2019d like to try include Raw Beet Salad, Wheat Berry Salad with Roasted Peppers, Goat Cheese and Mushroom Tart with Potato Crust, Smashed Edamame and Potatoes with Miso, and Plum Rosemary Upside-Down Cake. 5 stars.\nTags: adult, audiobooks, books, Caldecott, children, cookbooks, fiction, history, mystery, Newbery, reviews, sci fi, vegetarian, YA\n\u00ab The Mark of the Dragonfly\nDust of Eden by Mariko Nagai \u00bb",

In the classroom, we encourage conversation, small-group problem solving, and other tasks that simulate real-life uses of language.

        "raw_content": "CHRISTIAN & ERIS\nIn 2008, Eris and Christian lost everything due to a fire in their Conshohocken apartment. They were homeless, lost their cherished belongings, and were forced to start all over and pick up the pieces while living with Eris\u2019s parents for six months. Even though both Eris and Christian worked in the suburbs at this time they were drawn to and loved everything about the city. They began to research where they were going to start over and Eris came across The Essex (300 N 3rd Street in Old City) online. With Christian being an architect and Eris\u2019s love for design they were attracted to the historic landmark building and could appreciate the mix of old world charm and newly renovated interiors. Paul was the listing agent for The Essex and he was the first person that Eris and Christian met when they went to look at the building. Eris prides herself on having a good read on people. Christian agrees that she has a gift and her read on people is spot on. Eris knew right away that there was something special about Paul and she said \u201cI love this guy. He has to be our realtor.\u201d At that time, the architect in Christian was just thinking \u201cI love this building.\u201d He wasn\u2019t far behind though in sharing Eris\u2019s feeling for Paul. Christian said that Paul figured them out right away. He understood their wants and needs and was not going to steer them off course. There were 18 units available and Eris and Christian were the second to buy in the building. They quickly fell in love with the city and particularly the neighborhood. They embraced city life driving around in their Mini Cooper and frequenting a little market down the street where they would go for tastings, talk intimately with the store owners and knew they could count on their favorite soup being served every Wednesday. These local comforts are what made Eris and Christian feel at home. They were living a life of city bliss until\u2026\nThey turned 30! All at once they decided they wanted to have a baby and move to the suburbs. Eris became pregnant quickly and the commute from the city to Wayne was exhausting. They put their home up for sale and moved back in with Eris\u2019s parents when she was eight months pregnant. Once again, Eris and Christian needed Paul\u2019s help to find them a new home. And that is exactly what he did. Paul found them a mid-century modern house in Wayne five minutes away from Eris\u2019s work. The house embodied Eris and Christian\u2019s vibe and was full of character. Eris felt that this was the house and told Paul and Christian that if they lose that house she will hate both of them! No pressure. Unfortunately, Eris and Christian experienced a set back and lost the house to an all cash offer. They were extremely disappointed and needed to figure out how they were going to fix this loss. Super Bowl Sunday 2013, Paul called Eris and Christian and told them the deal fell through and the house was back on the market. Yes, Paul is an agent that works on Super Bowl Sunday! Enough said. Eris and Christian gave their very best offer and were determined to get this house. Again, another cash offer came in and it seemed hopeless. Paul never gave up though and stayed on top of this house. Ultimately, the cash offer fell through once again and Eris and Christian finally got their long awaited home in mid-June 2013 just in time for their son, Noah, to be born July 4th.\nFast forward three years. Eris no longer works in Wayne and travels more for work. Christian is teaching at Philadelphia University and his projects are predominantly in the city. They went in to the city to visit friends and realized that they have been wanting and thinking about moving back to the city ever since they left. Eris said \u201cthey loved the idea of the house in the suburbs more than they loved the house itself.\u201d It was time to call Paul. Of course he answered right away, got a photographer in to shoot the Wayne house on a Thursday and it was sold by Monday. Now back to the drawing board of finding the perfect home in the city.\nPaul found Eris and Christian a little town home, duplex in Society Hill. It is everything that the Wayne house was not. It is less house and more home. Eris and Christian beat to their own drum. They know what they want and what they like and Paul was able to identify their needs along their journey. Eris said \u201cthis is the happiest I have ever been in a home. I can see myself living here forever.\u201d They love the charm of the neighborhood and being in the center of one of the historic districts. They frequent Three Bears Park and their favorite local restaurant is The Hungry Pigeon. Eris said \u201cmy family is just alive here. All three of us. It feels like we are home.\u201d What more could you ask for? Even though Christian is the architect in the family, Eris is the one who has decorated the interiors of all their homes. She believes each home deserves its own character and due to the traumatic experience of losing everything in the fire, she likes to start fresh in each new home. She strips down the home and sells everything and doesn\u2019t move into a new home with any old furniture. Eris says \u201cI have a creative vein that has never been satisfied. My dream was to be a fashion designer. Decorating is a hobby for me and my style is a fusion of Scandinavian and Mid-Centry design.\u201d\nEris and Christian have quite a soft spot when it comes to Paul. They truly love him. He is always straight up honest and understands his customer\u2019s needs and who they are. Eris said \u201cI am always humbled by someone\u2019s ability to work. Paul hustles. He is always available.\u201d Christian added \u201cPaul never was frustrated by us. I will never forget Paul waiting under an umbrella in the pouring rain for us with a smile on his face.\u201d Christian always loves talking to Paul because it means things are happening. He loves the thrill of buying and selling housestogether. Paul was able to sell two houses for Eris and Christian that were very unique. There were no comps for these two homes and Eris and Christian had a price set in their minds. They wanted to move and didn\u2019t have to and they were willing to wait for the right price offered. Paul accepted the unique aspects of these homes as a challenge and it drove him to make these sales happen. It was a no brainer for Eris to refer Paul to her sister when looking for a home. Eris and Christian recommend Paul and his team any chance they get.\nThree purchases and two sales later, Eris, Christian and Noah are where they are meant to be. They are home.",

        "title": "London Anarchist Communists: Aims & Principles",
        "raw_content": "*Although we are no longer part of the Anarchist Federation, we nevertheless continue to adhere to the Aims & Principles of that organisation.\nThe Anarchist Federation* is an organisation of revolutionary class struggle anarchists. We aim for the abolition of all hierarchy, and work for the creation of a world-wide classless society: anarchist communism.\nCapitalism is based on the exploitation of the working class by the ruling class. But inequality and exploitation are also expressed in terms of race, gender, sexuality, health, ability and age, and in these ways one section of the working class oppresses another. This divides us, causing a lack of class unity in struggle that benefits the ruling class. Oppressed groups are strengthened by autonomous action which challenges social and economic power relationships. To achieve our goal we must relinquish power over each other on a personal as well as a political level.\nWe believe that fighting systems of oppression that divide the working class, such as racism and sexism, is essential to class struggle. Anarchist-Communism cannot be achieved while these inequalities still exist. In order to be effective in our various struggles against oppression, both within society and within the working class, we at times need to organise independently as people who are oppressed according to gender, sexuality, ethnicity or ability. We do this as working class people, as cross-class movements hide real class differences and achieve little for us. Full emancipation cannot be achieved without the abolition of capitalism.\nWe are opposed to the ideology of national liberation movements which claims that there is some common interest between native bosses and the working class in face of foreign domination. We do support working class struggles against racism, genocide, ethnocide and political and economic colonialism. We oppose the creation of any new ruling class. We reject all forms of nationalism, as this only serves to redefine divisions in the international working class. The working class has no country and national boundaries must be eliminated. We seek to build an anarchist international to work with other libertarian revolutionaries throughout the world.\nAs well as exploiting and oppressing the majority of people, Capitalism threatens the world through war and the destruction of the environment.\nIt is not possible to abolish Capitalism without a revolution, which will arise out of class conflict. The ruling class must be completely overthrown to achieve anarchist communism. Because the ruling class will not relinquish power without their use of armed force, this revolution will be a time of violence as well as liberation.\nUnions by their very nature cannot become vehicles for the revolutionary transformation of society. They have to be accepted by capitalism in order to function and so cannot play a part in its overthrow. Trades unions divide the working class (between employed and unemployed, trade and craft, skilled and unskilled, etc). Even syndicalist unions are constrained by the fundamental nature of unionism. The union has to be able to control its membership in order to make deals with management. Their aim, through negotiation, is to achieve a fairer form of exploitation of the workforce. The interests of leaders and representatives will always be different from ours. The boss class is our enemy, and while we must fight for better conditions from it, we have to realise that reforms we may achieve today may be taken away tomorrow. Our ultimate aim must be the complete abolition of wage slavery. Working within the unions can never achieve this. However, we do not argue for people to leave unions until they are made irrelevant by the revolutionary event. The union is a common point of departure for many workers. Rank and file initiatives may strengthen us in the battle for anarchist communism. What's important is that we organise ourselves collectively, arguing for workers to control struggles themselves.\nGenuine liberation can only come about through the revolutionary self activity of the working class on a mass scale. An anarchist communist society means not only co-operation between equals, but active involvement in the shaping and creating of that society during and after the revolution. In times of upheaval and struggle, people will need to create their own revolutionary organisations controlled by everyone in them. These autonomous organisations will be outside the control of political parties, and within them we will learn many important lessons of self-activity.\nAs anarchists we organise in all areas of life to try to advance the revolutionary process. We believe a strong anarchist organisation is necessary to help us to this end. Unlike other so-called socialists or communists we do not want power or control for our organisation. We recognise that the revolution can only be carried out directly by the working class. However, the revolution must be preceded by organisations able to convince people of the anarchist communist alternative and method. We participate in struggle as anarchist communists, and organise on a federative basis. We reject sectarianism and work for a united revolutionary anarchist movement.\nWe oppose organised religion and cults and hold to a materialist analysis of capitalist society. We, the working class, can change society through our own efforts. Worshipping an unprovable spiritual realm, or believing in a religious unity between classes, mystifies or suppresses such self-emancipation / liberation. We reject any notion that people can be liberated through some kind of supernatural force. We work towards a society where religion is no longer relevant.",

        "title": "Lux Ex Umbra: CSE releases report on electoral threats",
        "raw_content": "On June 16th, CSE released Cyber Threats to Canada's Democratic Process, a public report assessing the various ways cyber activities might threaten Canada's electoral system.\nCSE has made basic cybersecurity advice publicly available on its website for many years, but this report\u2014which was requested by the Prime Minister in the mandate letter he issued to Minister of Democratic Institutions Karina Gould in February 2017\u2014was the first of its kind by CSE.\nThe 38-page report discusses three ways in which cyber activities might be used to affect the electoral process: impeding or corrupting the voting process itself; stealing and exploiting information about politicians and political parties; and covertly influencing the public's political views by manipulating traditional and social media.\nThe document restricts itself to a general overview of the ways in which these threats might manifest themselves in Canada's federal, provincial, and municipal politics, and concludes (among other points) that:\nCyber threat activity against the democratic process is increasing around the world, and Canada is not immune. In 2015, during the federal election, Canada\u2019s democratic process was targeted by low-sophistication cyber threat activity. It is highly probable that the perpetrators were hacktivists and cybercriminals, and the details of the most impactful incidents were reported on by several Canadian media organizations.\nA small number of nation-states have undertaken the majority of the cyber activity against democratic processes worldwide, and we judge that, almost certainly, they are the most capable adversaries.\nHowever, to date, we have not observed nation-states using cyber capabilities with the purpose of influencing the democratic process in Canada during an election. We assess that whether this remains the case in 2019 will depend on how Canada\u2019s nation-state adversaries perceive Canada\u2019s foreign and domestic policies, and on the spectrum of policies espoused by Canadian federal candidates in 2019.\nWe expect that multiple hacktivist groups will very likely deploy cyber capabilities in an attempt to influence the democratic process during the 2019 federal election. We anticipate that much of this activity will be low-sophistication, though we expect that some influence activities will be well-planned and target more than one aspect of the democratic process.\nRegarding Canada\u2019s democratic process at the federal level, we assess that, almost certainly, political parties and politicians, and the media are more vulnerable to cyber threats and related influence operations than the election activities themselves. This is because federal elections are largely paper-based and Elections Canada has a number of legal, procedural, and information technology measures in place.\nWe assess that the threat to Canada\u2019s democratic process at the sub-national level (i.e. provincial/territorial and municipal) is very likely to remain at its current low level. However, some of Canada\u2019s sub-national political parties and politicians, electoral activities, and media are likely to come under increasing threat from nation-states and hacktivists.\nAll of this is pretty common sense for anyone who's been paying attention to the world for the past couple of years\u2014although it's certainly noteworthy that, to date, CSE has not observed nation-states using cyber capabilities to try to influence Canadian elections.\nThe document's ultimate value is likely to depend on whether it succeeds in kick-starting action on the part of Canadian political parties and others to actually reduce Canada's future vulnerability to such threats.\nThis document explicitly is not an action plan to accomplish that goal.\nHowever, the Minister's mandate letter did direct her also to \"ask CSE to offer advice to Canada\u2019s political parties and Elections Canada on best practices when it comes to cyber security,\" and CSE does plan to do that. (In fact, Elections Canada is already a recipient of CSE's cyber defence advice and services.) The agency will discuss the findings of the report with all federal political parties that wish to participate at a meeting to be held next Tuesday, June the 20th.\nAccording to a background briefing that CSE kindly invited me to take part in (along with a number of other researchers), the agency will explore with the parties whether it would be useful to provide further, more detailed advice or training to some or all of them. One possibility would be to provide training to IT staffers at CSE's Information Technology Security Learning Centre. Perhaps more likely, however, would simply be provision of advice on the kinds of services parties should contract for in the private sector.\nCSE will not be providing actual cyber defence services to the political parties, however.\nThe government considers Canada's democratic institutions to be \"of importance to the Government of Canada\", which gives CSE a legal mandate to provide IT security advice and guidance to those parties under s.273.64(1)(b) of the National Defence Act (i.e., CSE's Mandate B). But provision of actual protective services is restricted to the IT systems and networks of the government of Canada itself.\nNonetheless, a CSE official did confirm that warnings would be provided if, for example, the SIGINT side of the agency detected a foreign actor stealing data from a political party's computer system. Notification would come through the Public Safety Department's Canadian Cyber Incident Response Centre (CCIRC), which is responsible for assistance to critical infrastructure operators outside the federal government. Such notifications are routinely provided to CCIRC partners in such cases, according to the official.\n[Update 20 June 2017: Under Bill C-59, which was announced and given first reading today, the government proposes to give CSE the power to also provide cybersecurity services to protect non-federal information infrastructures designated \"of importance\" to the government of Canada. Thus, the agency might in the future be able to provide such a service to political parties, if they request it.]\nI also asked why CSE was the agency given the job of making the threat assessment in the first place. As the report itself acknowledges, the cyber threat to electoral systems is just one aspect, albeit a very important one, of a broader set of activities that could be used to undermine or improperly influence an election, including traditional espionage, propaganda, disinformation, covert funding, and blackmail or other coercion. Furthermore, as the report also acknowledges, the perpetrators of such actions can be purely domestic Canadian actors\u2014the activities of which CSE should have very little insight into\u2014as well as foreign actors.\nThus, it seems to me that, in both respects, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service would have been a more appropriate agency to make such an assessment, although it would certainly have needed to draw on CSE's cyber expertise when considering those aspects of the issue.\nThe response, which I didn't find entirely satisfying, was simply that CSE is the agency with the greatest expertise on cyber threat questions. Well, yes, indisputably, but that doesn't answer the points outlined in the paragraph above.\nUltimately, of course, the reason CSE produced the report is that the Prime Minister and the Minister of Democratic Institutions asked it to.\nUnsurprisingly, Australia is also concerned about the possibility of interference in its electoral system, and its political parties are also receiving advice from that country's SIGINT/IT Security agency. However, as indicated in this report (Ronald Mizen, \"Political parties vulnerable to state sponsored cyber attacks,\" Financial Review, 16 June 2017), the Australians may also consider providing funding to political parties to help them secure their systems.\nMight Canada also consider putting money on the table? An interesting thought.\nNews coverage of the CSE report:\nLee Berthiaume, \"Canada's spy agency expects cyberattacks during 2019 federal election,\" Canadian Press, 16 June 2017\nAlex Boutilier, \"Canada\u2019s political parties, media vulnerable to foreign hacks, spy agency says,\" Toronto Star, 16 June 2017\nDaniel Leblanc, \"Spy agency to school political parties on cyberthreats,\" Globe and Mail, 16 June 2017\nJustin Ling, \"\u201cLow sophistication\u201d actors took aim at the last Canadian election,\" Vice News, 16 June 2017\nAlex Boutilier, \"Despite risk of cyber attacks, political parties still handle Canadians\u2019 data with no rules in place,\" Toronto Star, 19 June 2017",

        "raw_content": "This year it happened worse.\nby Doug Smith and Max Brantley\nWATER WORLD: The Senate showed its respect for Lake Maumelle.\nOf course, the 2005 legislature accomplished some things. Every legislature does. Legislators cobbled together a budget to keep state government running for another two years, and without raising taxes. They took steps, however faltering, to continue compliance with court orders for improving the public schools. Here and there, an individual bill of merit made it all the way through the legislative process to become law, overcoming great obstacles on the way, like a salmon swimming upstream. One such bill will prevent constitutional officers, legislators and heads of state agencies from hiring relatives. Some truly awful bills were defeated \u2014 to put more government-sponsored prayer in the schools; to let legislators write the textbooks. Still, the 2000 session was heavily negative. Much bad legislation was enacted; much more was introduced. If the Deltic Timber bill, the worst bill of the session, had passed the House as it did the Senate, the 85th General Assembly could have laid claim to being the most wretched since the days of racial segregation, when legislators took their orders from Bruce Bennetts and Orval Faubuses. Leading the attack on good government was the Arkansas Times\u2019 cover boy, Sen. Bob Johnson, D-Bigelow, a previously nondescript legislator who came to realize that term limits have made room for people like himself to play larger roles, especially if they bind themselves to special interests rich and powerful. Though Lake Maumelle is not in his district, Johnson was the chief sponsor of Deltic Timber Corporation\u2019s bill to take the power of eminent domain away from Central Arkansas Water, the utility that protects the lake and the 360,000 Central Arkansans who drink of its waters. With millions of dollars to gain, Deltic essentially sought to remove Lake Maumelle\u2019s defenses against pollution so that Deltic, a huge land owner and developer, could build a pricey subdivision on the lake. The company called its bill \u201cThe Water Quality Protection Act of 2005.\u201d The scheme sounded like something Mr. Burns of \u201cThe Simpsons\u201d would dream up, but before CAW, city officials and private citizens could mobilize, Johnson had run the bill through the Senate. Twenty-two senators, almost a two-thirds majority, obediently voted to jeopardize a major public water supply rather than disappoint Deltic. Some observers believed Johnson had used hypnosis on his colleagues. Others suggested drugs. There are still things up with which the people, unlike senators, will not put. Piddling in their drinking water is one of them. Outraged citizens brought pressure on the House of Representatives, and the House listened, including House Speaker Bill Stovall, D-Quitman, a mongoose to Johnson\u2019s cobra. Though Deltic had 17 lobbyists working on 20 committee members, the House Committee on City, County and Local Affairs crushed Deltic\u2019s predatory proposal. There was no stopping another multi-million dollar giveaway, though. Once again exerting his strange mastery over his fellows, Johnson persuaded the Senate to pass a bill giving the present horse track and dog track owners in Arkansas exclusive rights to casino gambling in the state, and to do it without debate. The question of whether this fabulous franchise should be sold to the highest bidder, as other states have done, was not uttered aloud, perhaps for fear of offending the track owners, whose agents wrote the bill and watched the non-debate from the gallery. This time, the House went along with the Senate. Gov. Mike Huckabee mostly kept his distance from the legislative proceedings, apparently believing it would be presumptuous for him to take part. He maintained that aloofness on the gambling bill. He said it was a terrible bill, listed very good reasons why he should veto it, declared that he wouldn\u2019t veto it, and retired to his office to work on his diet. Huckabee is a Baptist preacher by training. Other Baptists who\u2019ve opposed gambling bills furiously in the past were oddly complaisant on SB 999. Maybe they\u2019re expending all their energy fighting gay marriage. The legislature approved tax increment financing (TIF) legislation at the urging of private developers and city officials, thus enabling the diversion of money that rightly belongs to the schools into the construction of shopping centers, movie theaters, barber shops and what have you. Here was another sizeable forfeiture of public resources to people who claim to believe in the free market. And the legislature couldn\u2019t adjourn until a group of senators led by the ubiquitous Johnson had managed to get more money for local pork barrel projects at the expense of larger state needs. Even in a session as uniformly dreary as this one, some moments stood out: A resolution naming Charles Ormond \u201cKing of the World\u201d was referred to an interim committee for study Rep. Charles Ormond, D-Morrilton, proposed a constitutional amendment to create a state gambling corporation, with himself as president. He said he was incorruptible and that his salary in the new position would be less than what members of the state Workers Compensation Commission make, which is $104,000 a year. Surprisingly, the amendment failed. Well, give them back to her Arguments against fluoridation of water as a means of preventing tooth decay were effectively refuted in the \u201850s, but the 2005 legislature nonetheless rejected a bill that would have required more Arkansas water systems to fluoridate. Opponents blamed crime in Little Rock on the city\u2019s fluoridated water, and one man said he had \u201cthe bones of a 98-year-old woman\u201d after being accidentally sprayed with fluoride. Too much Hutch One Hutchinson in the legislature is more than ample, as taxpayers learned a few years back when Tim was a state representative. The House was saddled with two this year, both of Tim\u2019s twin sons, Jeremy and Timothy, filling seats. The younger Hutchinsons continued the family tradition of misogynistic and irrelevant right-wing legislation, but unlike Daddy Tim and Uncle Asa, they are not products of Bob Jones University, the South Carolina bigots\u2019 academy, so there may be something salvageable in them. Not enough to justify joint membership in the General Assembly, though. Smiting the women When they weren\u2019t giving away public money to rich white men, legislators devoted much of their time to enacting anti-woman bills. Act 537 by Rep. Jeremy Hutchinson, R-Little Rock, requires parental consent before a minor can get an abortion. Act 1696 by Sen. Shawn Womack, R-Mountain Home, \u201cthe Unborn Child Pain Awareness and Prevention Act,\u201d says that at least 24 hours before a woman can have an abortion, she must be advised of her \u201cright\u201d to see material describing fetuses feeling pain. Act 1176 by Sen. Tim Wooldridge, D-Paragould, allows the state to pursue criminal proceedings against mothers whose babies are born with illegal drugs in their system. There were more of the same sort. Smiting the gays Opposing a bill to prohibit discrimination against homosexuals, Rep. Timothy Hutchinson, R-Lowell, said there\u2019s no law protecting overweight people, bald people and ugly people from discrimination, and \u201cI fit into all three of those categories.\u201d Bob Sells of Little Rock, who testified for the bill, claimed to be more overweight, balder and uglier than Hutchinson. Spectators called it a draw. Jesus Jim After demagoguing all session long about his bill to deny state services to illegal aliens (state officials said illegal aliens aren\u2019t getting services anyway), Sen. Jim Holt, R-Springdale, withdrew the bill without a vote shortly before adjournment. But we\u2019ll hear more anti-alien talk from Holt, a Religious Righter sometimes referred to as \u201cJesus Jim.\u201d He\u2019s planning a race for lieutenant governor. Jesus Mark Arkansas ACLU Director Rita Sklar, who testifies regularly in support of religious freedom, an unpopular topic with many legislators, was scolded more harshly than usual by Rep. Mark Martin, R-Prairie Grove, when she testified in opposition to a bill that would allow student-led prayers at public-school functions. Ignoring directions from the committee chairman to confine his remarks to the bill, Martin baited Sklar, who is Jewish, with questions like, \u201cIs it fair to say that you\u2019re not interested in religious liberty at all and that you\u2019re interested in silencing one religion?\u201d Sympathy for the doctor, sometimes One of the few pro-women bills considered by the legislature was HB 2782 by Rep. Joyce Elliott, D-Little Rock, which would require that hospitals inform rape victims about the emergency contraception pill, and either provide the pill to the victim or tell her where she can get it. If taken within 72 hours, the pill prevents pregnancy. The bill originally provided that doctors who didn\u2019t comply with the law could lose their medical licenses, but members of the House Public Health, Welfare and Labor Committee said that was too harsh. To get the bill out of committee, Elliott had to agree to make fines the only penalties for noncompliant doctors. The same legislators were not so protective of doctors in the many anti-abortion bills they approved. Those bills send noncompliant doctors to prison. (Elliott\u2019s amended bill failed anyway.) Sympathy for the zealots Sen. Jack Critcher, D-Batesville, introduced, then withdrew, a bill that would prevent punishment of any health care provider who refused treatment to a sick person, no matter the extremity of their condition or subsequent death, if it was a matter of \u201cconscience.\u201d The bad news is that Critcher was elected president pro tem of the Senate in 2007. The best 13 Democrats in the Senate voted for Critcher\u2019s Republican opponent, if that gives you any idea of the quality of rising leadership. Over in the House, Rep. Benny Petrus, D-Stuttgart, is the favorite to be House speaker. He allowed his Capitol Hill apartment to be used as an after-work tavern operated by lobbyists. No progress Sen. Sue Madison, D-Fayetteville, tried to revive the Equal Rights Amendment, which failed in the Arkansas legislature in the \u201870s. It failed again in 2005. Looking on the bright side, women were allowed to retain the right to vote. Who needs religious freedom? Not the House of Representatives. Rep. Buddy Blair, D-Fort Smith, sponsored a resolution in support of the separation of church and state. Thirty-nine House members voted for it, 44 against and 17 didn\u2019t bother. Venus Williams would kick that caseworker\u2019s butt Rep. Bob Adams, D-Sheridan, explaining his bill to ban the state from placing children in \u201chomosexual homes,\u201d said the bill wasn\u2019t aimed at people who were only suspected of being gay, such as \u201ca man whose voice is high-pitched\u201d or \u201cone of the Williams sisters who plays tennis who bench-presses 300 pounds.\u201d Rep. Jay Bradford, D-Pine Bluff, asked: \u201cBut who is to decide whether Venus Williams is a super athlete or a gay woman?\u201d Adams said the Department of Human Services would \u201chave to find evidence.\u201d He said that would probably be up to a caseworker. Oh, you mean that employer While Rep. Dwayne Dobbins, D-North Little Rock, was speaking for his bill to give a tax break to providers of broadband Internet access, another member asked if Dobbins\u2019 employer would benefit from his bill. Dobbins said he worked for the state of Arkansas, and the state would benefit. When another member repeated the question, Dobbins remembered that his fulltime employer is Alltel. And that Alltel would \u201cabsolutely\u201d benefit from his bill.",

        "raw_content": "504 F. 2d 474 - Whitfield v. Illinois Board of Law Examiners\n504 F2d 474 Whitfield v. Illinois Board of Law Examiners\nLeRoy WHITFIELD, Plaintiff-Appellant,\nILLINOIS BOARD OF LAW EXAMINERS et al., Defendants, Len\nYoung Smith, Defendant-Appellee.\nLeRoy Whitfield, pro se.\nWilliam J. Scott, Atty. Gen., and Herbert L. Caplan, Asst. Atty. Gen., Chicago, Ill., for defendant-appellee.\nBefore PELL and STEVENS, Circuit Judges, and LARAMORE,* Senior judge.\nPlaintiff, LeRoy Whitfield, is a law school graduate who, after failing the Illinois Bar Examination five times, brought a civil rights action1 against the Board of Law Examiners and its individual members.2 He alleged that: 1) the bar examination is unconstitutional because it has no rational connection with an applicant's fitness or capacity to practice law; 2) he passed the examination and should be so certified; and 3) procedural due process requires that he be permitted to see his exam papers and to compare them with model answers or answers of successful applicants. Plaintiff also alleged that the defendants had discriminated against him because of his race; this claim, however, has been abandoned on appeal. The district court dismissed plaintiff's complaint for failure to state a cause of action. We affirm.\nPlaintiff alleged that, in addition to his fine academic and military record, he had extensive legal experience. This included employment at various legal aid clinics, where he litigated cases (see Ill. S.Ct. Rule 711), interviewed clients and prepared legal documents, and as 'Legal Advisor, special policeman and Project Director' of the Gary, Indiana, Police Department, where he drafted search warrants and directed searches. Plaintiff argued that an applicant with his background clearly has the capacity and fitness to practice law; and, if the Illinois Bar Examination had a 'rational connection' to such capacity and fitness, he would have passed it. He therefore concluded that, under Schware v. Board of Bar Examiners, 353 U.S. 232,3 77 S.Ct. 752, 1 L.Ed.2d 796, the examination is unconstitutional.4\nWe may assume arguendo that plaintiff's background does establish his ability to practice law. The fact that the bar examination has prevented one even exceptionally qualified individual from practicing is not, however, a sufficient reason to declare it violative of the Fourteenth Amendment. It is well settled that the question of whether a classification passes constitutional muster cannot be answered simply by assessing its chance effect upon a particular individual. See, e.g., Colgate v. Harvey, 296 U.S. 404, 436, 56 S.Ct. 252, 80 L.Ed. 299. As the Supreme Court has concluded:\n'The fact that the Rules (concerning admission to the bar) may result in 'incidental individual inequality' (does not) make them offensive to the Fourteenth Amendment.'\nMartin v. Walton, 368 U.S. 25, 26, 82 S.Ct. 1, 2, 7 L.Ed.2d 5. Since plaintiff's attack on the Illinois Bar Examination is based solely upon such a chance effect, it is plainly insubstantial.5\nPlaintiff further alleged that, in light of his background, it was 'impossible' for him to have failed a bar examination five times; thus, he must have passed and should be so certified. It was uncontroverted that the Board actually determined that plaintiff failed each of his five examinations. His contention, however, was that the Board made 'serious mistakes' in grading.\nAdmission to practice in a state and before its courts is primarily a matter of state concern. Schware, supra, 353 U.S. at 248, 77 S.Ct. 752 (Frankfurter, J., concurring). And the determination of which individuals have the requisite knowledge and skill to practice may properly be committed to a body such as the Illinois Board of Law Examiners.6 Douglas v. Noble, 261 U.S. 165, 43 S.Ct. 303, 67 L.Ed. 590. A federal court is not justified in interfering with this determination unless there is proof that it was predicated upon a constitutionally impermissible reason. See Schward, supra, 353 U.S. at 238-240; id. at 248-249, 77 S.Ct. 752 (Frankfurter, J., concurring); cf. Theard v. United States, 354 U.S. 278, 281, 77 S.Ct. 1274, 1 L.Ed.2d 1342. Since nothing in plaintiff's complaint indicates that he was denied admission for such a reason, the district court correctly rejected plaintiff's request to overrule the judgment of the Board of Examiners.\nPlaintiff, of course, did allege that defendants acted arbitrarily in grading his examination. There may very well be situations in which a capricious denial by state officials may give rise to a federal remedy. See Schware, supra, 353 U.S. at 239; id. at 249, 77 S.Ct. 752 (Frankfurter, J., concurring). But, as Justice Brandeis observed for a unanimous Court in Douglas v. Noble, supra, 'it is not to be presumed that powers conferred upon the administrative boards will be exercised arbitrarily . . ..' 261 U.S. at 170, 43 S.Ct. at 305. In this case plaintiff has merely alleged, in essence, that an essay-type examination requires subjective evaluation and that the standards of grading are not susceptible to precise definition. We agree with the Eighth and Ninth Circuits that such an allegation is not sufficient to state a claim for federal relief. Feldman, supra note 5; Chaney, supra note 5.7\nFinally, plaintiff alleged8 that procedural due process requires that he be permitted to see his examination papers and to compare them with model answers or answers of successful applicants.9 We may assume that the due process clause requires the state to employ fair procedures in processing applications for admission to the bar and, therefore, that an applicant who has failed the bar examination is entitled to some procedural protections. Nevertheless, we do not believe that, in the context of this case, the procedures requested by plaintiff are required by the Constitution.10\nPlaintiff argues that these procedures were absolutely necessary to expose errors in the grading process and to discern his various strengths and weaknesses. Plaintiff, however, had been given five opportunities to write a bar examination which was offered biannually. Ill.S.Ct. Rule 704(c). There is no allegation that in the future, he will be denied the same opportunity.11 As the Attorney General persuasively argues, reexamination provides an adequate means of exposing grading errors.12 In addition, at least one of the examiners personally discussed with plaintiff his general performance in the exam and even graded sample answers which plaintiff wrote. Given the availability of these alternative procedures, the requested procedures were not constitutionally required.\nFurthermore, merely seeing his examination or comparing it with others would not allow plaintiff to expose errors or discern his abilities. These procedural rights would be virtually meaningless unless plaintiff also was able to confront the bar examiners and obtain from them explanations of their grades.13 Several hundred applicants fail the Illinois Bar Examination annually. Requiring an explanation for each of these applicants would place an intolerable burden upon the bar examiners. It also would place at an unfair disadvantage those applicants who were taking the exam for the first time.\nAs plaintiff notes, several state courts have determined, either by rule or decision, that a failing applicant should be afforded the procedures which he seeks. See, e.g., Application of Peterson, 459 P.2d 703 (Alaska 1969). These determinations, however, were made in the exercise of the courts' supervisory powers. It is axiomatic that the Fourteenth Amendment does not necessarily require those same procedural safeguards which a legislature or court may consider desirable as a matter of policy.\nPlaintiff has raised two other contentions. The first, which apparently was never considered by the district court, is that defendants violated Article I, 12 of the Illinois Constitution.14 As plaintiff recognizes, this purely state claim is pendent to his federal claims. Since we have concluded that the district court properly dismissed all of these claims, it was within the court's discretion to refuse consideration of the state claim. See United Mine Workers v. Gibbs, 383 U.S. 715, 86 S.Ct. 1130, 16 L.Ed.2d 218.15\nSecond, plaintiff contends that the district court should have entered a default judgment against defendants because their pleading in response to his complaint was filed three days late. In Duling v. Markun, 231 F.2d 833, 836 (7th Cir. 1956), cert. denied, 352 U.S. 870, 77 S.Ct. 96, 1 L.Ed.2d 76, this court stated that, whether a default judgment should be entered, is 'a matter resting in the sound discretion of the trial judge.' We find no abuse of that discretion.\nThe judgment of the district court is therefore\nSenior Judge Don N. Laramore of the United States Court of Claims is sitting by designation\nPlaintiff alleged that his action arose under the Fifth, Sixth, Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments to the Federal Constitution, Article I, 12 of the Illinois Constitution S.H.A., and 42 U.S.C. 1981, 1982 and 1983. Jurisdiction was predicated upon 28 U.S.C. 1331 and 1343(3) & (4)\nOnly the defendant Smith was served with process\nIn Schware the Supreme Court held:\n'A State can require high standards of qualification, such as good moral character or proficiency in its law, before it admits an applicant to the bar, but any qualification must have a rational connection with the applicant's fitness or capacity to practice law.'\n353 U.S. at 239, 77 S.Ct. at 756.\nPlaintiff also cited as authority Griggs v. Duke Power Co., 401 U.S. 424, 91 S.Ct. 849, 28 L.Ed.2d 158. In Griggs, however, the Supreme Court was concerned solely with the scope of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964\nIt might be noted that the Eighth and Ninth Circuits have further concluded that essay-type examinations, such as those taken by plaintiff, have a rational connection with the capacity to practice law. Feldman v. State Board of Law Examiners, 438 F.2d 699, 705 (8th Cir. 1971); Chaney v. State Bar of California, 386 F.2d 962, 964-965 (9th Cir. 1967), cert. denied 390 U.S. 1011, 88 S.Ct. 1262, 20 L.Ed.2d 162. See also Application of Brewer, 430 P.2d 150, 152 (Alaska 1967). As Judge Tone, speaking for this court, recently observed:\n'Educational requirements and proficiency examinations are time-tested means of assuring that practitioners meet minimum standards of competence.'\nRasulis v. Weinberger, 502 F.2d 1006, 1010 (1974).\nIll.S.Ct. Rule 704(c) specifies the subjects upon which the Board may test. Precisely what proficiency is required in these subjects and whether an individual applicant possesses this proficiency are factual matters entrusted to the Board's judgment. See Ill.S.Ct. Rule 709\nState courts have also consistently approved essay examinations and have refused to perform the role of 'super bar examiner' by regrading them. See authority cited in Annot., Court Review of Bar Examiners' Decision in Applicant's Examination, 39 A.L.R.3d 719 (1971)\nOn appeal plaintiff has argued that he also should have been afforded a full-blown adversary hearing. It is not necessary that we specifically consider this contention. There is no allegation in the complaint that plaintiff ever requested a hearing. Compare Suckle v. Madison General Hospital, 499 F.2d 1364 (7th Cir., 1974). Indeed, there is no such request in the complaint itself. It should be clear, however, that, if the procedures requested by plaintiff are not required, a hearing certainly is not mandatory\nThe Illinois Supreme Court has not published any rule which specifically prevents the bar examiners from releasing examination papers. The Attorney General, however, stated at oral argument that this is the court's policy\nChief Justice Warren, speaking for the Court in Hannah v. Larche, 363 U.S. 420, 442, 80 S.Ct. 1502, 1514, 4 L.Ed.2d 1307, concluded:\n\"Due process' is an elusive concept. Its exact boundaries are undefinable, and its content varies according to specific factual contexts . . .. Whether the Constitution requires that a particular right obtain in a specific proceeding depends upon a complexity of factors. The nature of the alleged right involved, the nature of the proceeding, and the possible burden on that proceeding, are all considerations which must be taken into account.'\nIll.S.Ct. Rule 704(d) does provide in part:\n'An applicant who has been rejected at a fifth examination shall not again be admitted to an examination except upon the permission of the Board of Law Examiners or the Supreme Court. The board or Court so granting the permission may, as a condition to the granting of another examination, prescribe a further course of study.'\nAt oral argument plaintiff stated that he did receive permission to take the exam a sixth time (and that he failed once again).\nSee generally Comment, Review of Failing Bar Examinations: Does Reexamination Satisfy Due Process?, 52 Bos.U.L.Rev. 286 (1972)\nThe federal Administrative Procedure Act provides various procedural protections in the case of an 'adjudication,' which includes licensing. 5 U.S.C. 554. The Act further provides, however, that these protections are not required where there is involved 'proceedings in which decisions rest solely on inspections, tests, or elections . . ..' 5 U.S.C. 554(a)(3). Implicit in this subsection is the recognition that, where examinations are available, further procedural protections are unnecessary. See also 1 K.

        "raw_content": "Alaska Cruise Recap: Arrival and Departure\nI promised last week I'd make proper entries for the cruise. Well, you see, sometimes people get paranoid at work and have to spend a few days looking busy and important after taking a week's vacation. I'll be posting a few pics below, but if you'd like to look at the soon-to-be entire set, it's on my Flickr page.\nThis trip was pretty much a family event that I got to tag along on. We had a total of nine people in our group: us, Evan's mom and stepfather, his maternal grandparents, his stepfather's mother, and his stepfather's brother and his wife. We flew out to Seattle the day before the cruise given the time it takes to get across the country, the time it takes to get grandparent-types through assorted processes, and to allow plenty of room for error. I had never been to Seattle before and (with apologies to Seattleites) I was pretty underwhelmed. It was a neat city in the sense that it looked very livable, sort of like a large small town, but I missed the whole chic west coast vibe. Perhaps it's because I spent 12 hours there in a party of octogenarians.\nSaturday morning we boarded the ship, did all the requisite life vest drills and whatnot, and began exploring. Evan's stepfather put us in this sort of lottery program where we bought a bargain-basement room and could be upgraded if space became available in better rooms, but if not, we'd get what was paid for. We learned we had been moved from the 4th to the 7th deck, and hearing all the chatter around, the higher decks are the better ones.\nNote to anyone looking to or ever considering taking a cruise: the higher decks may be where the suites and stuff are, but if you get seasick, or you just don't really like feeling like you're sleeping on a see-saw, try to get a room as low as possible and as far to the rear of the ship as possible. They say the bottom is where you feel the engine vibrations the most, but I'll take that over bobbing violently in the waves any day.\nAnyhoo, we spent the rest of the day booking our massage appointment, had dinner with the folks, enjoyed a few delightful mojitos, and played a little blackjack. Off to a great start, so stay tuned.",

        "title": "3D Printing and Regional Manufacturing Competitiveness \u2014 MAPI Foundation",
        "raw_content": "Introduction: A New Era for Process Innovation\nAs noted in a recent MAPI article, such innovations are partially a response to global competition and structural change. These challenges come in the form of low labor-cost economies that are integrating into global trade. Further, demographic shifts are burdening manufacturers with the rapid aging of the workforce and forcing them to think about the goods-producing implications of urbanization and the worldwide waning of the traditional nuclear family.\nIf there is indeed an industrial revolution, it has come in two waves. In the early 1990s, U.S. goods producers began implementing a lean production structure modeled after modern-day Toyota and the Ford Motor Company of the early part of the 20th century. In its initial form, \u201clean\u201d focused on supply chain efficiency through improvements in process management and engineering techniques aimed at the speed of production, elimination of waste, and inventory optimization. Over time, the meaning of lean has broadened so that it has virtually become the cultural mantra for the operation of a profitable manufacturing enterprise.\nThe second wave of revolution comes from scientific and engineering advancements that have catalyzed the development of exciting new technologies. Game-changers such as robots and digital factories promise to create a manufacturing sector that would have been unrecognizable just a decade ago. Of all of these, 3D printing is perhaps the most widely covered by the media given how much it has stimulated the imagination of diverse groups, including business owners, factory managers, and educators. People who follow business and technology news appear to each have their favorite 3D printing story, whether it be the printing of a house, a car, or even human tissue.\nThis article is based on a presentation I gave at the IEEE Computer Society\u2019s March 2015 Rock Stars of 3D Printing conference. I consider the role of 3D technology in the industrial revolution and support these thoughts with global data on the 3D market and the results of a poll of senior engineering executives that are members of the MAPI Engineering, Research, and Development Council. I then turn to the role of 3D in the development of competitive regional manufacturing economies whose geometry is changing with the evolving production paradigm. Finally, I provide suggestions for programs that will allow the U.S. economy to gain the maximum competitive return from the deployment of 3D resources.\nThe Pivotal Role of 3D Technology in the Evolving Production Paradigm\nSpeed of production may be an issue in these early days of deployment, but the possibilities for what can be produced with a 3D printer appear to be limited only by the imagination. With chess pieces, cars, small houses, and medical equipment being printed, additive technology has certainly earned its considerable attention.\nAnecdotal evidence suggests that the flexibility of production and the fact that 3D printers can produce proximate to the point of input are already beginning to shorten supply chains in a number of industry sectors, a considerable boon for global competitiveness. But the seemingly broad capacity of 3D technology to generate product improvements and prototype new designs increases its role beyond supply chain efficiency into the even more influential area of product innovation. Of all the revolutionary capital available to the manufacturing sector, 3D has the most potential to fundamentally alter business models in that it can shape processes and products.\nFor existing supply chains, 3D technology can give the end-user the capacity to participate in the innovation process. At the same time, as printers fall in cost and as their capabilities are more widely understood by the public, they can very well stimulate much-needed manufacturing-related entrepreneurship. Over time, certain goods-producing sectors will be populated by small but disruptive competitors, a plus for the growth and global responsiveness of U.S. manufacturing.\nHints of 3D Use and Demand: A MAPI Council Survey and Global Market Data\nSupport for the transformative possibilities of this technology can be seen in a February 2015 poll of the members of the MAPI Engineering, Research, and Development Council, a group of senior engineering executives in mostly global manufacturing enterprises. We received 20 responses to the survey out of a group of 55 council members.For more information about the survey, email cwaldman@mapi.net. Given the small self-selected sampling framework, it would be difficult to fully generalize the results to a broader population. Nonetheless, the responses shed some light on corporate use of this new technology and could be used to frame a larger, more national, or even international study.\nSeventeen of the 20 respondents indicated that their companies are already making use of some kind of 3D technology. Of the remaining three, two plan to work with the technology in the next five years. Seventeen respondents are using 3D printing for prototyping as opposed to production. Thirteen described their use as being an early stage R&D effort. In terms of impact, 12 respondents indicated that their use of 3D printing is increasing product innovation activity in their business; eight said that this deployment is allowing for shorter supply chains.\nRespondents were asked about the nature of their 3D investments. Nine said that it was (or will be) a stand-alone investment, while for eight it is (or will be) part of their companies\u2019 broader efforts with technology.\nMost appear satisfied with their 3D investments. Twelve said the technology meets their expectations and four said it exceeds expectations. Only one respondent said it is below expectations.\nData on global market demand appear to corroborate these survey results in the sense of suggesting growing use.All of the data used in the balance of this section and the first paragraph of the following section are taken from a wide range of sources collected by Statista, a statistics portal service. The worldwide value of the market for 3D equipment is expected to grow from $2.2 billion in 2012 to $4 billion in 2015 before more than doubling to $10.8 billion by 2021.Wohlers Associates.\nThe growth of 3D deployment has been remarkable. During 2008, there were 355 commercial 3D printing machines in use worldwide. By 2013, that number grew to 23,000.Hudson Valley 3D Printing. Worldwide end-user spending on 3D printers grew from $288 million in 2012 to $669 million in 2014.Gartner. The highest shares of global spending on 3D technology in 2011 came from consumer electronics (20.3%), automobiles (19.5%), and the medical sector (15.1%)\u2014diverse but highly sophisticated industry segments that are greatly dependent upon innovation for competitive strength.Wohlers Associates, CM Research.\nA Framework for Evaluating 3D Printing as a Driver of Competitiveness\nThe U.S. has dominance in the 3D market, accounting for 64.4% of global industrial additive manufacturing system production in 2011. By 2013, the U.S. alone accounted for 38% of global industrial additive manufacturing installations, significantly more than the combined shares of Japan, Germany, and China. With such a large investment, it can be reasonably argued that a national plan for maximizing competitive returns on the use of 3D printing is at least worth considering, not by any means to supplant what are already powerful market forces, but instead to enhance them. In recent years, national strategies have increasingly yielded to regional planning. Growing recognition of the independence and dramatically varying economic strengths and weaknesses among regions has catalyzed the changing policy focus. Economic research during the past 25 years or so reveals that clusters are the optimal paradigm for regional competitive analysis. A simple regional production function might very well be a good way to start thinking about manufacturing on a subnational level.\nFor real analytical value, however, a production model needs to be incorporated into a larger framework that captures inter-industry, public-private, and cross-region linkages. The seminal thinking in this area comes from Michael Porter, although it is rooted in century-old agglomeration economy thinking from Alfred Marshall (a mentor and forerunner of John Maynard Keynes) and others.\nPorter empirically observed that regional economies have their own distinct behavior and cycles. He noted the presence of clusters in many regions and defined them as \u201ca geographically proximate group of interconnected companies, suppliers, service providers, and associated institutions in a particular field, linked by externalities of various types.\u201dSee, for example, Michael E. Porter, \"The Economic Performance of Regions,\" Regional Studies 37, no. 6&7 (2003): 549-578. Besides common technologies, externalities can include skills, knowledge, and purchased inputs.\nFigure 1 shows Porter\u2019s diamond, his illustration of the cluster concept. Factor conditions are the regional supply of both tangible and intangible assets such as raw materials, infrastructure, information, research, and the legal system. Demand conditions consist of more than just the customer base. This term in the diamond has particular relevance for an innovation-generating technology such as 3D printing in that it invokes smart demand, meaning regional customers who ideally drive innovation.\nFigure 1 \u2013 Porter\u2019s Diamond\nSource(s): www.themanager.org\nFirm strategy, structure, and rivalry refer to macroeconomic and political stability, labor market policies, intellectual property rules, and other variables that contribute to the climate for local business strategies and competition. Related and supporting industries include local suppliers.\nResearch has demonstrated that there are numerous benefits to strong clusters, including faster employment and wage growth as well as stronger patenting activity and entrepreneurship.\nAn Advanced Manufacturing Cluster\nFigure 2 shows an advanced manufacturing cluster schematic developed by the MAPI Foundation. Cliff Waldman and Matthew N. Murray, Advanced Manufacturing in the American South: An Economic Analysis Supporting Regional Development, Southern Governors' Association and MAPI, 2013. Our research on the drivers of manufacturing innovation, the simple regional production function, and cluster theory all contributed to the development of this framework.\nFigure 2 \u2013 Advanced Manufacturing Cluster\nThe demand side of the cluster is segmented into global demand, national demand, and local demand, all of which have unique characteristics. On the factor conditions side, labor and non-labor inputs are used by suppliers to meet the needs of regional production driven by demand.\nLabor inputs are also the basis for new firm creation through entrepreneurship. Research shows that the local labor force is a critical driver of business startup activity in the local manufacturing sector. New firms become both suppliers and competitors to the principal industries in the cluster. Such competition is critical to the strength of a regional ecosystem in that it can motivate market-friendly pricing and innovative behavior.\nOn the factor conditions side of the cluster, the long-run factor inputs box represents the investments needed for innovation in an advanced manufacturing ecosystem. These include education of the skilled workforce, new product development (at all levels of the supply chain, from raw material to finished product), process innovations, and public contributions that might include research and development investments. These are not direct inputs into any current regional production process but have a critical influence on the evolution of future inputs, both labor and non-labor. The role of state and local governments is well defined in the cluster schematic. National policies have a direct and indirect impact on state policies. Examples at the federal level include the minimum wage, investment in R&D, regulatory policies, and foreign trade relationships. National and state policies affect the general economic health of the region and nation, which in turn affects global, national, and local demand for the output produced by the cluster.\nFederal and state policies collectively influence the creation of certain local institutions that influence long-run factor input development. Examples include small business development centers, workforce training centers, and federally funded research and development centers. They can also include investments in the upgrading of local educational institutions such as community colleges. In many ways, the nexus between local institutions and long-run factor input development is the defining link of an innovation-driven, investment-driven advanced manufacturing cluster. While powerful market forces are in play, there is a direct role for public policy.\nIn the bottom left corner of the schematic, there is a box marked \u201cnew cluster.\u201d A perfectly functioning advanced manufacturing cluster will likely have a spreading effect through the development of new products and processes that can be the basis of new clusters. This is why advanced manufacturing clusters can be effective arrangements for the growth and development of regional economies. Indeed, research has revealed that new industries can be spawned by effective clusters.\nHow Will 3D Printing Reshape the Advanced Manufacturing Cluster?\nThe advanced manufacturing cluster schematic can be an effective tool for thinking about the impact of 3D technology on regional manufacturing competitiveness, defined in part by the presence of strong, innovation-driven advanced manufacturing clusters.\nIn general, as the new manufacturing production paradigm evolves\u2014complete with robots, smart factories, 3D printing, and lean supply chains\u2014our advanced manufacturing cluster schematic will surely need revision. Affected supply chains will become smaller and more agile as production becomes increasingly possible at the point of supply chain use or end-user sale. The demand for high-skilled labor and labor that can function in a very new technological environment will rise dramatically. Information, in all of its many forms, will play a more dominant role in manufacturing supply chains and in manufacturing clusters as computerization increasingly drives factories and supply chains and as inventory optimization diminishes in importance.\n3D technology by itself will have many impacts on the shape of regional manufacturing clusters. The relationship between the demand conditions and the factor conditions will likely become more of a two-way street as the powerful prototyping agility of 3D technology allows for Porter\u2019s vision of smart demand to take hold. Since customers will be able to play an active role in the design phase of product development, demand could drive innovation to an even greater degree. Thus, there may have to be an arrow linking demand to the long-run factor inputs box. In general, product design in certain manufacturing industries will become a more prominent part of supply chains and therefore of clusters. A regional design box may have to be included next to the regional production box, and the interactions considered.\nSmaller and more agile supply chains in the industries that will be fundamentally shaped by 3D technology will allow for a greater role for new and small firms that can specialize in some aspect of 3D-driven new product development. Motivating this kind of innovation-driven entrepreneurship will become all the more important in developing optimal advanced manufacturing clusters. The positioning of the entrepreneurship box in the schematic might change in complex ways.\nWith its capacity toward flexible design, it seems possible that 3D printing can accelerate cluster-to-cluster spillover impacts and the development of new clusters. All of this will have to take place in a newly defined legal and regulatory environment.\nIn sum, the new manufacturing production paradigm in general and the contribution of 3D specifically certainly have the potential to drive regional manufacturing toward ever-higher levels of efficiency, innovation, and competitiveness. During this process, the architecture of regional advanced manufacturing ecosystems will change\u2014and fairly dramatically.\nPolicy and Programs: Optimal Investments\nGiven the likely competitive benefits, national and state policymakers will do well to consider local institutional investments in the deployment of 3D technology for optimal advanced manufacturing cluster formation. Regional centers conducting 3D-related research specific to the needs of the cluster will be a high-return investment.\nIn light of the role that smaller firms will play in more agile supply networks, regional small business development centers that focus on the entrepreneurial needs of evolving manufacturing supply chains will also prove to be a smart idea. Education is critical. In regions where advanced manufacturing can and will play a part in economic competitiveness, training in new technologies should be a part of the curriculum in local schools.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Thought Leadership \u203a 6 Signs You\u2019re the Next Great Leader (And What to Do Next)\nBy: Jeffrey Campbell\nThe working world is in the midst of a paradigm shift. Once considered a top-down, command and control tactic, leadership has evolved to require a higher level of engagement, and thus a more seasoned skill set. Likewise, the growing demand for innovation and change equates to an equal demand for true leaders who know how to motivate and inspire others.\nAre you the next great leader? Are you poised to make a difference, not just at the organizational level, but in the world and in the lives of others?\nEvery leader goes through a discovery phase before realizing their full potential, and we\u2019re here to help you through that process. Here are six signs you\u2019re the next great leader, followed by a few next steps to further develop your skills.\n1.) You\u2019re Already Being Recognized\nIf you\u2019ve already been promoted several times and are gaining a reputation as a go-to person within your company, you are a natural leader. The reward in a promotion extends far past any pay increase you could ever ask for\u2014the real gratification is in the increased responsibility and the opportunity to showcase your ability to lead others (which, in turn, paves the way to future promotions).\n2.) You\u2019re on a Special Project\nSpecial projects have two vastly different avenues. One is the type of \u201cspecial project\u201d that puts you in a corner completing an endless, menial task. In the human resources world, that\u2019s a potential warning sign of an impending layoff.\nThe other avenue is where future leaders shine. If you\u2019re on a truly \u201cspecial project\u201d that involves a high level of strategy and communication with senior personnel, it\u2019s a sign that you\u2019re moving up the ladder. In some cases, you might even find yourself leading this type of project.\n3.) Your Peers Look to You\nWhen difficult decisions are being made or debated in a meeting, do your colleagues tend to nudge you to drive the conversation? Every group of peers defaults to a leader (whether official or unofficial). If you find yourself speaking for the group, the leader is you.\n4.) You Frequently Think, \u2018If I Was in Charge\u2026\u2019\nNot everyone cares about the meaning of leadership. Some people accept poor leadership as a part of life that they can\u2019t do anything about, and that\u2019s totally fine. Meanwhile, are your visions and ideas for what you would do if you were in charge becoming increasingly profound? If so, then it\u2019s time to stop being a leader at heart and start being a leader in the making.\n5.) You Want to Learn More\nAs a leader emerges, they will begin to have a stronger grasp of their organization and industry. The many facets of business will all start to fit together, and everything will simply make more sense. With this understanding comes a craving not only to acquire new knowledge, but also to apply that knowledge as a strategic thinker.\n6.) You Inspire Others\nThe telltale trait of an effective leader is the ability to inspire others.\nAs John Quincy Adams once said, \u201cIf your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader.\u201d\nSo, you\u2019re seeing the above signs and want to become the next great leader. What do you do next?\nLook for ways to enhance your skills, particularly in areas where your weaknesses are. Leaders are well-rounded, and prepared to take on any challenge that is thrown their way.\nSeek chances to take on, or better yet, initiate a special project that will enable you to develop your skills while simultaneously advancing your company\u2019s prospects. Consider the special project a platform to build your confidence as a leader.\nFind a mentor. Every emerging leader needs an experienced advisor to help develop their vision and refine their skills.\nAllow your enthusiasm for your work and desire for personal growth to shine through. Passion is contagious.\nThe HTM Master\u2019s Degree at San Diego State University is an immersive, hands-on program designed to help you take these next steps and emerge as the next great leader in your organization. While the program targets the hospitality industry, the curriculum lends itself to professionals in any industry.

        "raw_content": "Jack Spielberg works in the area of operator algebras, which combines fundamental aspects of algebra and functional analysis. Operator algebras were introduced in the first half of the 20th century to give a rigorous mathematical model for quantum mechanics. In particular, the uncertainty principle indicates that certain fundamental physical quantities, such as position and momentum, are noncommuting, a phenomenon having no place in classical physics. The operators required to represent them act on infinite dimensional vector spaces, and the high degrees of noncommutativity occurring have resulted in new discoveries in both analysis and algebra. The development of the field led to deep connections with other branches of mathematics, such as topology and geometry.\nPh.D. University of California-Berkeley 1985\nJack Spielberg.

        "raw_content": "Failing heart cells trigger self-protection mechanism\nStress changes a structural protein into a gene regulator that protects against heart failure\nAn unexpected finding that links a structural heart protein to gene regulation following heart stress suggests potential new avenues for developing heart failure therapies.\nThe work, led by University of Iowa heart researcher Long-Sheng Song, MD, focuses on a protein called junctophilin-2 (JP2). Previous work from Song\u2019s lab has shown that JP2 is a structural protein that is essential for heartbeat and that loss or disruption of JP2 is associated with heart failure.\nStudy published Nov. 8\nThe new study conducted in mice and published online Nov. 8 by the journal Science, reveals that under stress conditions, JP2 is cleaved into two fragments. This breakdown of JP2 damages the structural architecture of the cells and disrupts heart cell function. The new study\u2019s surprising finding is that one of the newly created fragments of JP2 protects the heart from damage by traveling to the heart cells\u2019 nuclei and turning off the expression of genes that promote heart failure.\n\u201cWe have long known that this protein is a structural protein, important for muscle function, but we never expected it to also have this ability to regulate gene expression,\u201d says Song, professor of internal medicine at the UI Carver College of Medicine. \u201cThese findings reveal a previously unknown self-protective mechanism that heart muscle cells possess to counter the damaging effects following cardiac stress.\u201d\nA University of Iowa study finds that cardiac stress transforms an important structural protein into a gene regulator that protects against heart failure. The image shows accumulation of the N-terminal fragment of the protein junctophilin-2 (JP2) in the nuclei of failing human heart muscle cells. Green shows the location of JP2 or its N-terminal fragment. Blue indicates the cell nuclei. Under stress conditions, JP2 is cleaved into two fragments. The cells\u2019 membrane structure is severely damaged due to loss of the full length JP2. But the JP2 fragment migrates to the cell nuclei and turns off genes that promote heart failure. Image courtesy of Long-Sheng Song, University of Iowa.\nHeart disease conditions\u2014like high blood pressure, blocked arteries, or heart attack\u2014all put stress on the heart. At the cellular level, this type of stress activates an enzyme that cleaves JP2 into two fragments. The new study shows that the N-terminal JP2 fragment migrates to heart cell nuclei and initiates genetic changes that protect against heart failure. The DNA sequences that allow the fragment to travel to the nucleus and that regulate gene expression are highly conserved among many species from mice to humans.\nTo prove the beneficial effect of the JP2 fragment, the researchers engineered mice with increased levels of the JP2 N-terminal fragment. These animals were protected from developing heart failure in response to cardiac stress. Conversely, mice genetically engineered to lose the function of the JP2 fragment in the nuclei developed heart failure at an accelerated rate following cardiac stress.\nFindings hint at possible heart failure treatment\n\u201cOur findings suggest that increasing the level of JP2 fragment or functional peptide in the heart might hold promise as a strategy for treating heart failure,\u201d says Song, who also is a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles Diabetes Research Center at the UI and holds a staff appointment with the Iowa City Veterans Affairs Medical Center. \u201cWe have secured a patent for the use of the protein fragment, and intend to investigate gene therapy approaches for delivering it to heart cells in preclinical (animal) models of heart failure.\u201d\nIn addition to its role in heart muscle, JP2 is also important and abundant in other types of muscle (skeletal and smooth). The new findings suggest that JP2 fragmentation may play a role to protect against the adverse effects of stress in all types of muscle.\nMembers of the research team\nSong\u2019s colleagues on the study included Ang Guo, PhD, UI research assistant professor in internal medicine, who was the first author of the study, and UI researchers Yihui Wang, Biyi Chen, Yunhao Wang, Jinxiang Yuan, Liyang Zhang, Duane Hall, Jennifer Wu, Yun Shi, Qi Zhu, Cheng Chen, William Thiel, Xin Zhan, Robert Weiss, Fenghuang Zhan, Catherine Musselman, Miles Pufall, Kin Fai Au, and Chad Grueter from the Abboud Cardiovascular Research Center, and the Departments of Internal Medicine and Biochemistry at the UI Carver College of Medicine.

        "title": "Rejection on the Job Hunt \u2013 Michelle Sander \u2013 Medium",
        "raw_content": "\u201cUnfortunately\u201d | Rejection on the Job Hunt\nRejection is inevitable when applying for jobs in a competitive space like remote-friendly Marketing and Branding. All I need to do is search my inbox for the keyword \u201cunfortunately\u201d and I\u2019ll have a nice, plump stack of rejection letters.\nRecently, the TED Radio Hour released an episode entitled Nudge about Judgement and Decision-Making science\u200a\u2014\u200aone of my favorite pastimes. (Some people have sports; some people have the study of normative, descriptive, and prescriptive theories of decision.) At one point, the episode presents the finding that while men apply to jobs where they fulfill 60% of requirements for the position, women apply to jobs only when they fulfill 100% of the requirements.\nWhile men apply to jobs where they fulfill 60% of requirements for the position, women apply to jobs only when they fulfill 100% of the requirements.\nHaving known this for some time, I am sure to apply to jobs even if they are a bit of a stretch. I\u2019m cognizant that because of this practice, rejections are far more likely. Because the market for remote marketing positions is so fiercely competitive, even when the job is a perfect fit, the rejections are sure to come in spades.\nThis isn\u2019t a story of rejection, though, it\u2019s one of confidence. When I decide to apply for a position (more on this here), I have confidence in my ability to adapt and persevere usually through a Hermione-esque level of stick-with-it-ness. As Bren\u00e9 Brown says, \u201cThe most dangerous stories we make up are the narratives that diminish our inherent worthiness.\u201d And a rejection doesn\u2019t change my worthiness anymore than having confidence makes me a con artist. (Heist films, another pastime.) To amuse you and myself, here are a sampling of rejection letters I\u2019ve received, presented as famous confidence games.\nThe Bob le Flambeur\nHope you\u2019re doing well. After much deliberation, the hiring team has decided to move forward with another candidate.\nFor what it\u2019s worth, we found you to be an excellent candidate and a fundamentally good and likable human being that would be a natural cultural fit for us. There just happened to be another candidate with a slightly longer and deeper track record. The competition was stiff and you performed very, very well.\nPlease do keep in touch. While it didn\u2019t work out for this particular role, I believe that you could be a valuable addition as our marketing team grows. And that\u2019s not a comment I\u2019m making to the other candidates.\nWho\u2019s Afraid of Edward Albee\nThanks for applying. At this time, the hiring manager has decided not to move forward with your application.\nThanks again for making the time to chat with me on Skype about our position. It was a pleasure getting to know you, albeit briefly.\nWe had a number of very strong candidates, and I\u2019m sorry to report that I won\u2019t be able to pursue further conversations with you about this position. If things change, and as the company grows, I\u2019ll be sure to keep you in mind. I\u2019d also encourage you to connect with me on LinkedIn.\nMichelle, I really appreciate the time you put into the application.\nUnfortunately, your application didn\u2019t make it to the final round of our search. It\u2019s always tough narrowing the field when we have a lot of wonderful candidates, sometimes it\u2019s simply not the right combination of skills/experience. I\u2019m sorry it didn\u2019t work out this time, but I wish you all the best in your search for a great position!\n\u201cThe most dangerous stories we make up are the narratives that diminish our inherent worthiness.\u201d\u200a\u2014\u200aBren\u00e9 Brown\nThe Pepper in a Steam-pot\nThank you so much for your application. We are small team, and we are happy that you decided to start a conversation with us. Unfortunately, we are not able to pass you onto the next round at this time.\nWe wish you every success with your job search!\nThe Salted Mine\nWe regret to advise that your application has been unsuccessful.\nHowever, we would like to thank you for contacting us and please feel free to apply for suitable openings with us in the future.\nWe wish you the best of luck in your job search.\nThanks so much for your interest in our open marketing role.\nUnfortunately, your inquiry isn\u2019t making it to the next round of our search. We\u2019ve had a good number of applicants, and it\u2019s been hard to narrow down the field. I wish you the best of luck in your next career move.\nWhite-Van Speakers\nAll resumes are carefully reviewed by a Recruiter. If you do not hear from us immediately, it is likely that other applicants better fulfill the required qualifications for the position you are seeking. Your resume information will remain on file and we will continue to keep you in mind for future opportunities.\nThe Iraqi Dinar\nThank you for taking the time to learn more about us and giving us the opportunity to consider you for our team.\nWe\u2019ve had a very competitive pool of applicants for the position and have had to make hard decisions, and unfortunately I won\u2019t be able to advance you into the next round of interviews. I have no doubt, though, that you\u2019ll be a real asset to an organization in the right position, and I wish you the best of luck with your job search.\nTo improve your odds and learn about our culture, please follow us on all of our social media platforms.\n\ud83d\udc9a Ultimate confidence is tapping the heart below to see if it turns green.

        "raw_content": "Welcome to our annual year in review. With 2016 behind us, we take this time to reflect on our accomplishments, thank our partners and supporters and set our sights on new horizons. It\u2019s always a contemplative time for the Michigan Saves team. As I enter my fourth year as executive director, I can\u2019t help but be inspired by how far this organization has come and how much we\u2019ve been able to achieve with your help.\nFor Michigan Saves, 2016 was marked by steady growth, which helped us reach new heights in our programs \u2014 including being honored with an Inspiring Efficiency Award based on our overall impact on the energy community. That impact is fueled by a foundation of contractors that consistently use our services to grow their business by helping customers with smart energy projects both big and small. As you\u2019ll see in our By the Numbers infographic, our loan portfolio surpassed $80 million. That portfolio continues to grow, and we\u2019re looking forward to celebrating the $100 million milestone in 2017.\nThe steady growth in our traditional offerings not only means tens of millions of dollars are made available on an annual basis for people and organizations to make their energy improvements come to fruition, it also means the Michigan Saves team can lend its expertise to new programs that further accelerate the entire energy-efficiency community\u2019s development. Supporting the City of Holland with their on-bill financing program and leading the Governor\u2019s Energy Excellence Awards as part of a diverse steering committee are but a few examples of areas where we exchange knowledge and work with our partners to expand our services to the state\u2019s residents.\nMichigan Saves operates as a green bank. Part of what that means is we\u2019re committed to connecting people with the services they need to become better stewards of the environment and their resources. Whether that\u2019s working with lenders to provide below-market-rate financing or helping energy contractors reach new customers \u2014 we\u2019re here to serve. We\u2019re proud of what you\u2019ve helped us achieve, and we hope you see yourselves as you read through this year in review.\nOn behalf of the entire Michigan Saves team, thank you for a great 2016. We can\u2019t wait to work with you, for you and alongside you in 2017.",

        "raw_content": "Sometimes God gives us hardships so we can turn to him and get closer to him; sometimes he just wants to remind us that life is fleeting but he is eternal and that is why we should always go back to him.\nI remembered when I was wandering in the wilderness, it was not a funny experience. I disciplined myself to fast, pray and read inspirational books. I learnt that I am nothing without God, I can\u2019t do anything without Him. Putting God in everything I do as turned things around in my life. Both the ones have seen and experienced, and the ones am still expectant of.\nBeneath are some ways to revolve back to Him..\n1. When you\u2019re heartbroken. Ask him to heal you, ask him to help you repair yourself again, ask him to give the strength to move on, the wisdom to understand, the grace to forgive and the courage to try again. Because he\u2019s the only who knows your heart and he is the only one who knows how to mend it.\n2. When you\u2019re confused about life. Ask him to guide you, ask him to help you find the way, ask him for a map, ask him to lead you because he is the only one who can, because he is the only one who really knows where you\u2019re going and he is the only one who has the fuel to keep you moving.\n3. When you don\u2019t feel like you\u2019re good enough. Ask him why you\u2019re still here, ask him if you\u2019re special, and ask him for reassurance, confidence and faith . Ask him because he wants to let you know how special you are, ask him because he knows your day is coming soon and ask him because he will bring it to you sooner than you think.\n4. When you\u2019re lonely. Talk to him, tell him your problems, cry to him, tell him to stay by your side, tell him you need him and tell him to tuck you in bed and help you sleep. Talk to him even if you\u2019re not saying a word because he is listening to your silence and he is watching your tears and he will make you smile again.\n5. When you\u2019re scared. Tell him to give you courage, tell him to take the fear away, tell him to silence the voices in your head, tell him that you\u2019re afraid but you\u2019re willing to take the risk and ask him for strength to handle the consequences. Tell him to make you fearless because he knows you have it in you and he knows how to bring it out.\n6. When you\u2019re tired of failing. Ask him to give you peace of mind, ask him to give you the faith you need to trust him and trust that this is all for a reason, that he is putting you through this for a bigger and better purpose and that he is not going to let you down. Ask him for patience to wait for the answers.\n7. When you\u2019re not sure if he\u2019s listening. Ask him to remember you, ask him to give you reassurance, ask him for a sign and ask him for a miracle, because he wants you to believe in miracles and he wants you to witness them.\n8. When you\u2019re giving up. Ask him to give you hope, ask him to let you see the light at the end of the tunnel, ask him for the silver lining and ask him to give you power to keep fighting your battles until you win the war. Because he wants to see you win and he wants you to be victorious.\n9. When you\u2019ve lost someone you loved. Get closer to him, it\u2019s okay to question why this happened to you but ask him to be your friend, ask him to be there for you, ask him for the reason he took something you loved away and then trust him; trust his plan and trust his timing, trust that he will replace what you\u2019ve lost with something even bigger and better and something that never even crossed your mind.\n10. When people are making fun of your dreams. Tell him that you think this is your calling, that this is your passion, and that this is what makes you feel alive. Ask him to make it happen, to make it easier, to make it less cruel and ask him to cover your ears from all those who are laughing at you, because he wants to make your dreams come true but he wants to make sure that you\u2019re up for the challenge and that you will fight for them.\nThis entry was posted in Article, Grace, Healing, Hope, Inspiration, Post and tagged Favour, God, Grace, Inspiration, Motivated and Free, Motivation, Rania Naim, Salvation.

        "title": "Finding a Job After Completing Addiction Treatment",
        "raw_content": "Successfully completing addiction treatment and returning home is an incredible achievement. While returning to the \u201creal world\u201d can be exciting, there are some instances that can also be daunting. For example, if you lost your job because of your addiction, then finding a new one might seem impossible. It\u2019s not. There are a few things you can do to increase your chances of landing a great new job.\nElevate Your Resume\nFirst impressions matter, and your resume is the first impression you make on a potential employer. Because addiction often leads to periods of unemployment, getting fired, and poor references, there may be some holes in your resume. But there are some simple things you can do to do to ensure your resume ends up in the interview pile rather than the trash can.\nThink about everything you have done as part of your recovery. Was volunteering a part of your treatment? Did you receive vocational classes? Did you learn any new skills? Include those in your resume to fill in unemployment gaps. If this was not a part of your treatment, seek out volunteering opportunities in your community. They are a lot easier to find than jobs. Although you won\u2019t be getting paid, this will help you gain experience and make positive connections that you can use as references.\nAnother important component of your resume is your cover letter. This is your time to shine, regardless of your professional experience or education. You can find a lot of great cover letter writing tips online. But in a nutshell, don\u2019t regurgitate your resume. Instead, focus on playing up your strengths and skills, what you have learned in previous jobs, and how you plan on applying this knowledge if you are hired.\nYou know what they say, \u201cIt\u2019s not what you know, but who you know.\u201d So, get out there and start talking to everyone. Start by letting your family and friends know that you are looking for a job, even if they don\u2019t work in the field you want to work in. You never know where you might make connections.\nYou should also try more formal networking, such as attending industry specific networking groups and social events. If you are shy and this sounds intimidating, bring a friend. They will not only make you feel more at ease, but if they are outgoing, they can serve as your wingman and introduce you to others. And of course, don\u2019t forget to bring some resumes and business cards, if you have them.\nYou can also network online. If you are serious about your job search, you need to be on sites like LinkedIn and Indeed. Don\u2019t just upload your resume; engage with others on the site. Comment on articles that others post, visit the forums, and start developing professional relationships.\nTry Different Jobs\nSometimes change can be a great thing, and this might be one of those times. Carefully think about your last job and decide if it is something you still want. If you had a high-stress job that intensified your addiction, then that is probably not the environment you want to pursue again. If you worked as a bartender and are new to recovery, then late nights at a bar are not beneficial to your recovery. Sure, bills need to get paid but not at the cost of risking your sobriety. Take this as an opportunity to explore new career opportunities.\nDon\u2019t be afraid to try jobs in new fields and don\u2019t assume that a job is not worth your time. Understand that you might not be able to instantly search for top positions, especially if you have been out of work for a while. You might have to start with mid- or entry-level positions, and that is fine. Work hard and you will be at the top in no time.\nRemember, finding a job that is the right fit for you and your recovery might not happen overnight. Don\u2019t give up and keep putting yourself out there.",

        "raw_content": "Posted Mar 29, 2010 by Michael Warschawski\nPlaces: Israel , United States\nMichael Warschawski: Before speaking about the crisis, one has to understand the special relationship between the United States and Israel. Between these two states there is a strategic alliance, which is something extremely solid, very central to the US Middle East policy and very essential to Israel. This strategic alliance is not in crisis. In the framework of that alliance there can be tensions. The American administration and the Israeli government don\u2019t always see the world and strategic objectives in exactly the same way. We are now in such a case. . . . As long as the Israeli government is not only not trying to resolve [the Palestinian issue], not trying even to open talks, but provoking more and more, it will be difficult for the US to initiate seriously basic changes in the Greater Middle East, especially with Iran. . . . The Israeli government will try to push all the time in its own direction; the Americans will try to limit it as much as possible. But it will be done in the family. The existence of the Israeli-American family sharing, claiming to share, the same values and defending basically the same global interests in the area will be stronger than the crisis. So, we have what Kissinger used to call, not crisis resolution, but \u201ccrisis management.\u201d They will manage the crisis on a permanent basis, trying not to reach a real state of crisis where real pressures and sanctions will have to be imposed on Israel in order to implement American interests.\nMichael Warschawski is a political analyst with the Alternative Information Center. This video was produced by Sergio Yahni of the Alternative Information Center and released on YouTube on 26 March 2010.

        "raw_content": "9.6 per cent more foreign tourists in Spain during March, spending up by 12 per cent\nThe sector continues to grow although the March figures were boosted by an early Easter\nAs was to be expected the figures regarding international tourism in Spain during March, which were published by the government\u2019s central statistics unit on Friday morning, show that there were more visitors to this country than in the same month last year, one of the main contributing factors being that Easter fell earlier this year than in 2017.\nThis is doubtless one of the reasons behind a 9.6 per cent year-on-year increase in the number of tourists arriving in Spain in March, propelling the total to 5.38 million, and once again the largest single contribution to that total was made by visitors from the UK. British visitors numbered 1.19 million, a rise of 5.6 per cent, and accounted for 22 per cent of the total, while the next highest figures in the breakdown by nationality were those for Germany (820,000), France (650,000) and the Scandinavian nations (504,000).\nIt is also interesting to note that the nationalities with the most significant year-on-year increases were Portugal (29.7 per cent higher at 151,000) and Ireland (up by 22.2 per cent at 119,000), and the Easter factor led to the year-on-year increase in March being the most significant since September 2017.\nIn terms of the destinations chosen by those visiting Spain from abroad, perhaps the aspect which stands out most is that the figure in the Balearics was 23.3 per cent higher than in March 2017. However, the islands attracted only 401,000 tourists, and with significant increases in all of the other major tourist regions the lion\u2019s share was taken by the Canaries (1.35 million) and Catalunya (1.2 million), between then accounting for almost half of all foreign tourism in Spain.\nAll of which is very positive news for the sector, but even more important in economic terms is the amount of money these foreign tourists spend while in Spain. In this context the really good news is that international tourist spending is calculated to have been 12.1 per cent higher than in March 2017 at 5,727 million euros \u2013 equivalent to 7.7 million euros per hour!\nWhile the increase is of course largely due to there having been more visitors, it is also accounted for by each individual spending an average of 2.3 per cent more while in Spain, and in addition there were significant increases in the numbers of traditionally bigger-spending visitors from the USA and Scandinavia. In fact, while the UK again contributed the largest proportion of the total \u2013 almost exactly 19 per cent, at 1,088 million euros \u2013 and Germany accounted for another 14.9 per cent, Scandinavian visitors spent a lot more than their more numerous French counterparts (633 million euros as opposed to 391 million).\nAfter three months of 2018 the cumulative totals now show a 6 per cent increase in the number of visitors Spain has welcomed from abroad, the total having reached 13.72 million, and a 7.7 per cent rise in the amount of money they are calculated to have spent while in this country. However, due to a range of factors which are thought to include Brexit and the increasing attractiveness of other popular destinations such as northern Africa, where the political instability of a couple of years ago appears to have died down, the rate of growth is generally slowing down, and due once again to the Easter factor it is reasonable to anticipate less positive figures for the month of April.",

        "raw_content": "Arusha Declaration on Wildlife Protection\nIn 1961, Julius Nyerere Prime Minister of Tanganyika (now Tanzania) declared: The survival of our wildlife is a matter of grave concern to all of us in Africa. These wild creatures amid the wild places they inhabit are not only important as a source of wonder and inspiration but are an integral part of our natural resources and of our future livelihood and well being. In accepting the trusteeship of our wildlife we solemnly declare that we will do everything in our power to make sure that our childrens grandchildren will be able to enjoy this rich and precious inheritance. The conservation of wildlife and wild places calls for specialist knowledge, trained manpower and money, and we look to other nations to cooperate in this important task the success or the failure of which not only affects the continent of Africa but the rest of the world.\nGame cropping\nGame cropping is the sustainable harvest (killing) of a surplus number of animals from populations that are managed on finite (fenced) land on the basis of maximum sustainable yield. Game cropping implies seasonally determined harvesting according to carefully set quotas. It provides valuable venison (meat) for the local and export market, as well as other animal products for income generation. Game cropping is a specialised task usually undertaken by highly trained cropping teams.\nGame culling\nGame culling is an activity determined by wildlife management objectives, with the primary objective of reducing these animal populations as quickly and humanely as possible, utilizing all parts (meat, skins, horns or tusks, etc.) of the culled animals. Culling has been used in many protected areas of Africa as a game management tool within finite natural areas:\nTo prevent or reduce the habitat degradation caused by high densities and to adapt population numbers to the scientifically established Ecological Carrying Capacity;\nAs a strategy to protect the balance of the ecological niche relationship between competing species of mainly herbivorous mammals.\nThe supply of valuable animal protein to local rural populations on a regular basis and at a low price assists in making the very presence of wild animals on communal and public land more acceptable to the rural population. Culling therefore forms part of the justifiable sustainable use of nature and of an integrated conservation strategy.\nCulling, however, continues to be a rather controversial issue. While conservation scientists and managers of protected areas argue for its use as an adaptive management tool, animal rights organizations consider it an unethical approach. The general public especially in the Western world usually leans towards supporting the view of the animal rights organizations, mainly due to sympathetic, albeit less than scientific media coverage.\nSeven national biodiversity and environmental NGOs (BirdLife- SA, the Botanical Society of South Africa, Elephant Managers and Owners Association, Endangered Wildlife Trust, Wildlife and Environment Society of South Africa, Wilderness Foundation and WWF-SA) comment that elephants should be managed and, together with the Game Rangers Association of Africa (GRAA), consider culling currently the most viable short-term tool in the absence of any other feasible alternative. They therefore support SANParks in its efforts to control and manage elephant populations, and any other species that poses a significant threat to the continued existence of indigenous and endemic species in their environment, and believe that SANParks is obliged to address this issue, in terms of their obligations to the country and in terms of South Africas national as well as international obligations. The well-known Zimbabwean elephant specialist, Dr David Cumming says, A harvest of 5 000 elephants from a population of 200 000 elephants could generate US$40 million a year enough to protect and manage 200 000 km2 of protected area at a rate of $200/km2. National parks in Mozambique and Zimbabwe are currently operating on budgets as low as about $5 and $10/km2.",

Stream here: https://t.co/3p5NjkleVX pic.twitter.com/4udiP8kAmE\nAfter the field pitted, Logano was third on the final restart with 15 laps to go. Three laps later he took the lead from Martin Truex Jr.\n\u201cJust a racing deal,\u201d Keselowski said on Twitter. \u201c@ClintBowyer and I were racing hard for position with 5th place points battle on the line.\n\u201cWe Came up on 2 lap cars and neither of us 4 gave an inch. Hate that it caused a yellow but the racing was legit.\u201d\nThe Team Penske driver added that he thought he had \u201cscrewed the 22 team\u201d as a result of the incident and benefitted Kyle Busch, who led the race after not making a green flag pit stop.\nKeselowski went on to finish fifth.\nTruex finished second in a failed attempt to defend his 2017 title. His No. 78 Toyota lacked the short-run speed needed over the final run.\nHis fortunes were the opposite from 2017 when he capitalized on a late caution that involved Suarez and won the title.\n\u201c(Suarez) brought the caution out last year which won us the championship,\u201d Truex\u2019s crew chief Cole Pearn said after the race. \u201cThis year it cost us the championship. You\u2019ve got to be good, but you\u2019ve got to have a bit of luck. At the end of the day, it just didn\u2019t quite shake out.\u201d\nHonestly- at the time I thought it screwed the 22 team. Knew the 18 hadn\u2019t pitted and this would put them in the lead\u2026\nTags: cole pearn, ford ecoboost 400, homestead-miami speedway, nascar, Brad Keselowski, Clint Bowyer, Daniel Suarez, David Ragan, Joey Logano, Kyle Busch, Martin Truex Jr.\nMartin Truex Jr. on the end: \u2018It sucks. It hurts. It\u2019s terrible. I hate it\u2019\nBy Nate RyanNov 18, 2018, 10:15 PM EST\nHOMESTEAD, Fla. \u2013 There were no tears shed as Martin Truex Jr. climbed from his No. 78 Toyota after the final ride of Furniture Row Racing.\nAbout a half-dozen team members in orange and black firesuits stood wearily nearby with mostly sullen faces and exchanged some handshakes, hugs and shoulder pats. Crew chief Cole Pearn clapped Truex on the left shoulder and had a measured conversation with his driver about everything that transpired over the past three hours. Team owner Barney Visser wasn\u2019t at the car but was described by Pearn as \u201cjust his normal solemn self; not much emotion.\u201d\nBut the feelings still were raw for the team that nearly left NASCAR on top.\n\u201cIt sucks,\u201d said Truex, whose voice did quaver a few times in a NBC interview after finishing second Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway in his bid for consecutive championships in the last start for his Denver-based team. \u201cYeah, it sucks.\n\u201cIt sucks. It hurts. It\u2019s terrible. I hate it. I wish we could go on and race 10 more years together, but we can\u2019t.\u201d\nAfter a late-night flight to the Rocky Mountains, life would begin anew for the 62 members of Furniture Row Racing (and perhaps with harsh realities for at least a third of the team). There are cars and equipment to be liquidated, houses to be sold and families to be moved (which is why so many tears were shed last week after its hauler was packed a final time and dispatched to the season finale).\nThe little team that could from Colorado then will disperse to all corners of the country with many of its plucky employees probably still wondering what could have been if not for a fateful late caution in South Florida.\n\u201cNo question, we had the car to beat, but if you don\u2019t lead the last lap, it doesn\u2019t matter what you got,\u201d said Truex, who actually led only 20 laps (the fewest of the four championship contenders) but whose car clearly was strongest over full green-flag runs of 30 laps or more. \u201cWe fought hard. We played the right strategy. We kept getting it better and better and on the long runs, that thing was nasty. We\u2019d kill them. That was cool. But it didn\u2019t come down to that tonight.\u201d\nLike it does so often at the 1.5-mile oval with massive tire wear, the Ford Ecoboost 400 came down to a late caution flag. Until the yellow flew with 20 laps remaining for contact involving the No. 2 Ford of Brad Keselowski (Logano\u2019s teammate) and Daniel Suarez\u2019s No. 19 Toyota (the car that Truex and Pearn will helm next season along with a few select FRR crew members), it seemed the race would be decided between Kevin Harvick and Truex,\nWith fourth title contender Kyle Busch in first (and hoping for a caution) on much older tires and needing to stop again, the lead was cycling toward Harvick and Truex, who seemed in the catbird seat for his fifth victory of the season.\n\u201cI thought we were slaying (Harvick) pretty hard and would have got him pretty quick, and there was no way what (Busch\u2019s team) was doing was going to work out,\u201d Pearn said.\nUntil the final caution.\nAfter pit stops, Busch emerged in first ahead of Truex, Logano and Harvick. Truex quickly dusted Busch on the Lap 253 restart, but Logano swept past him four laps later with Truex barely able to put up a fight.\n\u201cHe was so much faster than me at that point, if I would have hit him, he would have just hit me back and went on,\u201d Truex said when asked if he could have been more aggressive \u201cIt was a moot point. I needed to be faster. It wasn\u2019t even close at that point in the race. He passed me so fast, I didn\u2019t even have a chance to do anything. So, yeah.\u201d\nLogano led a race-high 80 laps primarily because he was unbeatable during the first 15 to 20 laps after a restart. Sunday\u2019s last restart was with 15 to go.\n\u201cJust needed more time,\u201d Truex said.\nAnd more than a little luck, as it turned out. Sunday\u2019s race was the inverse of Truex\u2019s path to the 2017 championship, which he won with a better short-run car than Busch \u2026 because of a late yellow flag that was triggered because of debris from a flat tire on Suarez\u2019s No. 19.\n\u201c(Suarez) brought the caution out last year which won us the championship,\u201d Pearn said. \u201cThis year it cost us the championship. You\u2019ve got to be good, but you\u2019ve got to have a bit of luck. At the end of the day, it just didn\u2019t quite shake out.\u201d\nWas there extra sting from losing to Logano, whom Truex vowed wouldn\u2019t win the championship after the Team Penske driver advanced to the Championship 4 by bumping him aside for a last-lap win Oct. 28 at Martinsville Speedway?\n\u201cYeah, a little bit, but what are you going to do? They did a good job,\u201d Truex said. \u201cThey beat us. Fair and square. It\u2019s the way it goes. That\u2019s racing. That\u2019s why we race.\u201d\nPearn, who got into a shouting match post-Martinsville with Logano\u2019s crew chief, Todd Gordon, also shrugged it off.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think that matters to me,\u201d Pearn said. \u201c(Logano\u2019s team) did a great job. They haven\u2019t quite had the speed they displayed (Sunday) all year. Credit to them. They went out and earned it. So they did a great job.\u201d\nSo did Furniture Row Racing, which managed to soldier through the playoffs under the specter of the impending shutdown that was announced the week of the regular-season finale. Though Truex was winless over the final 10 races, he still managed five top-five finishes and came up just one position short of becoming the 16th driver with multiple championships (and first in eight years to win consecutive titles).\n\u201cI don\u2019t know what else we could\u2019ve done,\u201d Truex said. \u201cHonestly, we worked our guts out all weekend and just to get here. We shut a lot of people up and made them eat crow, and that felt good. To come here and almost upset the field and almost win it back to back was really awesome. I just wish that last caution hadn\u2019t come out. Other than that, I don\u2019t know what we could\u2019ve done.\u201d\nSaid Pearn: \u201cI\u2019m just super proud of our effort. Everybody and their brother wanted to write us off and say we couldn\u2019t do it. And we just proved them all the hell wrong like we have all along. If that\u2019s the way the 78\u2019s got to go out on a style and performance like that, I\u2019m good with it.\u201d\nIn prerace interview, @colepearn tells @KelliStavast that: \"Last year it was 'Let\u2019s try not to lose it. This year it's much more of, 'Let\u2019s go out and take it.' \" Says emotion after @FRRacingTeam's final race will \"hit us like a ton of bricks.\" #nascar\n\u2014 Nate Ryan (@nateryan) November 18, 2018\nIt was a fitting end to a five-season run for Truex with the underdog team that he once described as a \u201cbunch of misfits\u201d that became one of stock-car racing\u2019s most unlikely success stories while resurrecting a driver\u2019s career.\n\u201cBest time of my life,\u201d Truex said. \u201cI don\u2019t know what else to say. Those guys have been amazing. They\u2019ve made me a superstar in NASCAR.

        "raw_content": "On University requirements\nKara Miecznikowski | Thursday, March 1, 2018\nI normally try to get to bed early on Sunday nights \u2014 to start my week off on a less sleep-deprived note \u2014 but this time I stayed up past 2 a.m. talking on the phone with a friend from my hometown. He plays guitar as a jazz studies student at a university in Texas, where the entirety of his academic and extracurricular involvements concern the subject. Throughout our conversation, he explained the ups and downs of converting his passion for music into a major and career, emphasizing that his sole academic focus at the moment is on jazz studies.\n\u201cIt\u2019s great that 100 percent of the work you do is what you love,\u201d he said. \u201cBut it sucks that what you love becomes 100 percent of your work.\u201d\nNotre Dame students often complain about the University\u2019s core curriculum requirements \u2014 a list of classes including subjects such as philosophy, theology, social science, math, history and literature \u2014 totaling around 14 classes over the course of four years. Many students, such as those in the College of Science, are also required to complete a language requirement, despite an apparent lack of its necessity in most science careers. Variations of \u201cif I wanted to study Spanish, I would be a Spanish major\u201d are often overheard in conversations between biology students, and these sentiments certainly seem reasonable \u2014 why a chemical engineer that plans to live in the Midwest would absolutely need to be intermediately fluent in French, no one is entirely sure.\nBecause of its emphasis on imparting a set of \u201ccommon foundational skills,\u201d most high school educations do not give students the chance to take classes closely suited to their interests and passions. In college, however, students have the ability to do just that \u2014 to choose majors and minors that delve into their specific areas of interest, and to use these studies to build skills and experiences that will support their ultimate career objectives.\nUniversity requirements put a damper on this freedom, in a sense. The core curriculum often requires students to take classes outside the sphere of their area of study and, oftentimes, their vaguest interests altogether. The main benefit of the \u201cliberal arts\u201d approach of a core curriculum is often advertised as making students more well-rounded and prepared for a wide variety of tasks and occupations following graduation. But one of the most valuable \u2014 and far less recognized \u2014 effects of the core curriculum is that it may help prevent academic burnout.\nAcademic burnout is exactly what it sounds like: It is a state of physical and emotional exhaustion, often coupled with negative feelings such as cynicism and detachment, ultimately leading to a loss of motivation and interest in a person\u2019s work or studies.\nA 2007 study published in \u201cAnnals of Internal Medicine\u201d found that about 50 percent of medical school students (among more than 2,000 surveyed across seven schools) experienced academic burnout; it should be noted that medical school is one of the most specialized \u2014 anti-liberal arts, if you will \u2014 educations that exist. Conversely, establishments (such as The Princeton Review) that rank universities \u201cwith the happiest college students\u201d consistently present a list of schools that put an emphasis on a liberal arts approach to education, one that encourages students to pursue a variety of academic interests outside of their main focus on study.\nThe bottom-line? An education that requires students to study subjects outside of their major might actually be partially responsible for motivated success in the major itself \u2014 and might even make students happier overall.\nOf course, many factors \u2014 stress, workload, physical health and sleep \u2014 play into the development of academic burnout, but I think it is fair to say that the nature of a student\u2019s education does, too. As a biological sciences student that has spent a majority of my time focusing on science courses, I have experienced my fair share of burnout. Strangely enough, I have found that the most effective way to alleviate burnout is not increased leisure time, or going to bed earlier, or even managing my time more effectively \u2014 but studying subjects outside of my major.\nAlthough I cannot pinpoint exactly why this is, I can offer a few hypotheses. Perhaps it is as simple as being able to take a break from usual curricular tasks to work on a completely different subject and still feel accomplished for getting something done. Perhaps it is just the fact that University requirement courses like fine arts or theology are more \u201cfun\u201d than organic chemistry II, and provide a mental and emotional break from the sometimes monotonous drone of studying a single subject.\nCuriosity fuels proactive, enjoyable learning: Perhaps courses in psychology and philosophy spark a curiosity in many students that accounting II simply does not. And maybe \u2014 just maybe \u2014 a student is able to walk out of a University requirement course with this curiosity intact and finds that they can apply it to other areas of study for increasingly motivated, invested learning. Regardless, I am strangely grateful for University requirements.\nAnd did I mention how much they bring up my GPA?\nTags: Academic Burnout, Core Curriculum, University Requirements\nTheology requirement: more life changing than infuriating\nWhen I entered Notre Dame as a freshman, I was pretty clueless.

(Leonardo DiCaprio), The Cider House Rules (Michael Caine), and Chocolat (Juliette Binoche). Could this be Will Ferrel\u2019s Oscar turn? If not, he\u2019ll always have Ron Burgundy\u2019s local Emmy.",

        "raw_content": "The most powerful resolution you can make this year\nThere\u2019s something powerful about the start of a new year.\nPerhaps you\u2019re looking forward to something exciting. Maybe last year was difficult, and you\u2019re just glad it\u2019s over. For all of us, the New Year offers a chance for something better.\nLots of people have advice for you to make the most of the New Year. They may suggest a new diet, a new exercise routine, new learning programs, new money management, or new relationships, but there\u2019s something else we should consider. Something that includes all those areas of our lives and more.\nHow can you start the New Year well?\nThe goal isn\u2019t just to read some verses and walk back into the rest of your life unaffected. The goal of reading your Bible should be to know God better and do what He says.\nWhat\u2019s so important about an old book like the Bible? How will the Bible change our year?\nAll Scripture is inspired by God, and He communicates His truth and love through its words (2 Timothy 3:16-17). By reading the Bible, we\u2019re learning Jesus is God who came to rescue us. He gives us what we need to live our lives with purpose and meaningful connections.\nWhen we experience the truth revealed in Scripture, we\u2019re given the opportunity to change in some way. Since the Bible is full of truth, we have so many things to learn and ways to grow.\nWhen we experience the truth revealed in Scripture, we\u2019re given the opportunity to change.\nScripture is a powerful tool God can use throughout our lives. Even if you\u2019ve read the Bible for most of your life, there is always more to learn. Each time we open the Bible, God shows us something new and leads us further than we\u2019ve been before.\nJesus wants us to have a better New Year than we want for ourselves. The best way to discover what He has in store for us is to listen to Him and do what He says. That process begins with the instructions He\u2019s already given us in Scripture.\nAs you move forward into this year, walk with Jesus by reading the Bible and obeying Him. Scripture itself promises that God\u2019s words do not return to Him empty, but accomplishes what He desires (Isaiah 55:8-11).\nDo you want to see how much your New Year and your life can be changed by God? Read your Bible and follow Jesus, step by step.\nNeed help getting started? Use one of these studies to guide you through a book of the Bible. Or, text \"Read My Bible\" to 30303 and we'll text a devotional to your phone each morning.\nDiscover more about bible or following-jesus.",

One megawatt is enough power to supply approximately 650 homes.\nThe tremendous demand for electricity is being attributed to increased air conditioner use brought on by residual heat built up over more than a week, higher than normal humidity, and an unusual weather pattern heating up coastal communities more than normal for this time of year.\nThe California Independent System Operator, which manages transmission and system reliability for 75% of the state, and SCE reported no major problems securing generation for customers today.

        "raw_content": "New Delhi, August 16, 2018: There are party leaders, there are Prime Ministers and then there are great leaders who transcend the political factions to carve a distinct identity of their own and remain in the heart of millions. Former Prime Minister (PM) Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who was synonymous with the prominence of Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) and under whom India gained the Nuclear status, shuffled off this mortal coil after fighting with his illness in All India Institute of Medical Sciences or AIIMS. His cordial personality and the love to frame poetic stanzas in the political speeches earned him great accolades and he became an admirable figure in the history of Indian politics.\nOn June 11, Atal Ji was hospitalised with the complaints of chest congestion, kidney tract infection and urinary tract infection. He was treated for nine weeks by a team of expert doctors and on Thursday evening an announcement of his demise was made by the AIIMS. He is said to have passed away at about 5:05 PM after battling for life. As per information from AIIMS, he was being kept on life support systems as his condition deteriorated over the last 36 hours and despite several efforts he could not be saved. Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid his visit to AIIMS twice in the twenty four hours and various politicians from across parties kept arriving as the health condition of the iconic leader worsened on Wednesday. The Union Government declared seven days of mourning throughout India and also the afternoon 4 PM of 17th August as the time of State Funeral at Smriti Sthal in the National Capital Territory (NCT). States like Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Assam, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka have also declared holidays\nFollowing the mourning announcement, all the government, semi-government and educational institutions shall remain shut from tomorrow, i.e. from August, 17, 2018 to August 22, 2018. No government and cultural programmes shall be held during the period and the National Flag shall fly at half mast as a mark of homage to the gem of a politician, who was equally loved by the masses and the people of the political fraternity and would continue to rule everyone\u2019s heart. Although the news of his death came as blow to many, he had retreated from the active public life since 2009 due to his ailments and remained confined in his residence at Krishna Menon Marg in New Delhi.\nThe President of BJP informed that the followers that the mortal remains of the deceased stalwart of BJP will be kept for last respect from 7:30-8:30 AM. The remains will then be taken to BJP Headquarters at 9 AM. The final journey would begin by 1 PM and the last rites will be held at 4 PM. Be it Congress Leaders Sonia and Rahul Gandhi or Aam Aadmi Party leaders Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia, everyone seemed in sombre mood while speaking about the BJP Patriarch. The BJP Headquarters in Delhi, which was well decorated as a part of Independence Day celebrations soon looked sorrowful, as the decorations were taken down after the news of critical condition of Atal Ji reached there. Pakistan PM-Designate Imran Khan and Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina also offered their heartfelt condolences on the sad demise of the former Indian PM.\nAtal Bihari Vajpayee\u2019s first stint as the 10th Prime Minister of the country in 1996 was as short as 13 days, since the coalition party to which he belonged, failed to garner enough number of seats needed for proving majority. Again he came to power in 1998 and remained PM till 2004 after getting re-elected in 1999. He was the first Indian PM, who had served the full five-year term at PMO despite not being a member of Indian National Congress. The leader, who had some tremendous oratory skills, won lakhs of hearts when he, as the External Affairs Minister, delivered a speech in Hindi in the United Nations General Assembly, a first for any Indian. In 1998 by ordering the Nuclear Tests at Pokharan, he practised a strategic masterstroke to dismantle the nuclear ambitions of Pakistan. Again, the tall figure\u2019s illustrious achievements also included the ironical peace overtures to Pakistan. He created history when he travelled from India to Pakistan on the first direct Bus for the route. He is also hailed for the bold leadership skills displayed during the Kargil War in which the Indian soldiers triumphed. Atalji was conferred with Bharat Ratna the highest civilian award in 2015. His Birthday on 25th December is observed as the Good Governance Day by the present government.\nConsidering his incredible career, it will not be exaggerating to say that Atalji was a dynamic personality, who had all the qualities to be loved and respected by all sections of people and without whom the Indian politics would have remained faded.",

        "raw_content": "All Tvvins,\nBiig Piig,\nCrazy P,\nJake Hart,\nSim Simma,\n\u2018Build A Bridge\u2019 is the latest of a string of singles from All Tvvins\u2019 upcoming album Just To Exist, coproduced by James Vincent McMorrow. The songs we\u2019ve heard so far indicate that the band have made a shift from stadium-rock-indebted sounds to a more idiosyncratic electronic pop/rock style and this track is no different; it\u2019s infused with intricate percussion rhythms but its true merits lie in the lyrics, \u201cI build a bridge right over to you, just for the view\u201d and in the choppy vocal sample cut-ups in the tag.\n\u2018Nothing Changes\u2019 is the latest single to see release from Biig Piig\u2018s upcoming EP Big Fan Of The Sesh, Vol.2, the follow up to last year\u2019s Volume 1. The track is a lo-fi R&B bop and showcases the Irish Londoner as a prolific vocalist with traces of Eryka Badu and Jorja Smith audible in her delivery. She said that the song is about battling with habits and \u201cfalling into a pattern and not being able to break it \u2013 like wanting to start fresh and change your path for the sake of yourself and person you love, but finding yourself in the same place with the same end result\u201d.\nNottingham/Manchester band Crazy P are set to release their upcoming new album Age Of The Ego on May 3rd and \u2018SOS\u2019 is the lead single from it. The track provides social commentary on current affairs and the band\u2019s united dissatisfaction with everything from Brexit to social media, but this is anything but mirrored in the music; sonically, the track is uplifting and buoyant despite the heavy narrative and showcases everything that the group do best with bouncing bass lines and analogue synths. The band play Dublin on June 7th at The Sugar Club.\nTheophilus London & Tame Impala\nThis Theophilus London & Tame Impala collaboration originally surfaced during a live performance back in 2016 but saw official release last week. Coming in just short of three minutes, the song is everything you\u2019d expect from the collaboration with intricate raps and tight hooks, complimented by swelling instrumental sections that grant lead singer Kevin Parker the room to soar in the chorus\u2019. We like a lot.\nJake Hart is an elusive London based artist and \u2018The Prayer\u2019 is his latest single. There isn\u2019t a whole lot of information about him online but the song is enough to do the talking; it is bursting with soulful, R&B vibes with a gorgeous choral section and intricate percussion lines reminiscent of Jack Garratt or Tom Walker.\nSim Simma & Denise Chaila\nThe Dublin dancehall-flavoured club night Sim Simma is moving into the record business by releasing new music under their Sim Simma Soundsystem label and name. For the first release, there is a five-track EP called Pass The Aux Cord produced by Ben Bix and Semi-D and \u2018Man Like Me\u2019 is the second single from it (we featured \u2018Yamma Yamma\u2019 here last week). The track is an uptempo tropical bop with tight rhymes by the rising new artist Denise Chaila and a lot of personality in the vocal delivery, it\u2019s impossible not to move along to it.\nFans of The Chemical Brothers got a double whammy last week with both a confined album date (April 12th) and a new track. \u2018Got To Keep On\u2019 is disco infused with swirling synths and percussion underneath vocal loops that chant \u201cgot to keep on\u201d (this will cement itself in your head all day), there\u2019s even some a cacophony of chiming bells towards the latter half of the song. It\u2019s exactly what they do best.\nRoe has been gathering a steady stream of acclaim over the past year an is fresh from a string of Snow Patrol support dates across the UK. The 19-year old has an inherent likeability factor and this is no more apparent than in her music, particularly in new single \u2018Down Days\u2019. The track addresses the fact that we all have bad days, and that thats absolutely fine, \u201cI was having a really bad day.

        "raw_content": ". (Picture: Twitter/Federal Government)\nThere are more than 100 thousand new cases of cancer in the Netherlands each year and 44 thousand people die from the disease. The risk of cancer is influenced by genetics, but also by lifestyle choices, the researchers conclude.\nNot smoking is the most important advice to prevent cancer, but a healthy diet and sufficient exercise can also reduce the risk. \"There isn't a guarantee to prevent cancer and in many cases it is bad luck\", the KWF writes. But the risk can be reduced by making good choices.\nSmoking is by far the largest and most dangerous risk factor. Every yea 19 thousand people get cancer by smoking. That is 19 percent of all cancer cases in the Netherlands. Of the 44 thousand cancer deaths per year, 28 percent (12 thousand) are related to smoking.\nOther risk factors that have been proved to contribute to the development of cancer are alcohol consumption, obesity, less healthy diet and lack of exercise. An estimated 9,500 people in the Netherlands annually get cancer through a poor diet and 2,900 people from drinking alcohol.\nA recent survey by TNS NIPO showed that only 20 percent of the population realize that lifestyle can increase the risk of cancer.\nDutch Cancer Association",

        "raw_content": "The humours - blood, phlegm, black bile, and choler - were substances thought to flow within the body and determine a person\u00b4s health, mood, and character. For example, an excess of black bile was considered a cause of melancholy. Humours remained an inexact but powerful explanation for centuries, surviving scientific changes, and offering clarity to physicians.\nThis one-of-a-kind book follows the fate of these variable fluids from their Western origin in ancient Greece to their present day versions, tracing their persistence through medical guidebooks of the past to current health fads, from the testimonies of medical theories to the theories of scientists, physicians, and philosophers. By intertwining the histories of medicine, science, psychology, and philosophy, Noga Arikha revisits and revises how we think about all aspects of our physical, mental, and emotional selves. (From front flap.)\nOn the book\u2019s website you can read the reviews, buy the book, find out more about the author and the humours, and get answers to questions about the book. You can also discover examples of how to translate humours back into our modern lives, by taking a humoural personality test.\nTake a humoural personality test, Read a Q&A with the author about the book\nWritten with husband Marcello Simonetta and published in the US/UK by Palgrave Macmillan in summer 2011, this is the first biography in English of Lucien, the most talented of the Bonaparte brothers, a man who gave up his political career for the sake of his ideals - and a woman.

        "raw_content": "Mark Warner: This will 'send a shiver down the spine' of Facebook, Twitter, and Google\nWhen it comes to the social media behemoths, Senator Mark Warner (D-Va.), thinks many of us just don\u2019t get it.\n\u201cMost Americans believe these are free services. There\u2019s nothing free about \u2019em. They are milking information out of us, data out of us in \u2014 in a world where data\u2019s the new oil. These are the only enterprises that, every time we deal with \u2019em, we give them more oil. We give them more data on us,\u201d Warner said at the All Markets Summit: America\u2019s Financial Future in Washington, D.C.\nWhat does Warner\u2014who\u2019s the ranking Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, and thereby steeped in the issue\u2014propose we do about this? He has a number of remedies, some of them spelled out in white paper he authored.\nI was intrigued by an idea he had, which would put a dollar value on our data. \u201c[What] if you knew how much your data was worth to Facebook, on a monthly basis?\u201d the senator asked. \u201cIf it\u2019s $18 a month, or my data\u2019s worth $22 a month, I think that might actually create a market incentive for new enterprises to come in and, in a sense, disaggregate between the user and the platform.\u201d\nWarner thinks this is important for a number of reasons, including competition. \u201c\u2026 these three companies [Facebook, Google, and Twitter] have so dominated the market, it\u2019s really hard for new companies to come in,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd that would be data transparency. So shouldn\u2019t we have a right to know how many actual pieces of information these companies have on us?\u201d\nIn fact, Warner says there may be a new law coming down the pike that would spur competition along these lines. \u201cIn California there\u2019s legislation that\u2019s gonna be put up which would send a shiver down the spine of the platform companies,\u201d he says. \u201cThey\u2019re gonna call it \u2018You Are The Product,\u2019 [whereby] no matter how many times you click \u2018I agree,\u2019 you retain basic rights to (they\u2019re arguing) 25% of all the value of that data coming back to you in payment.\u201d\nSenate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman Senator Mark Warner. REUTERS/Jim Bourg\nAnother idea of Warner\u2019s: Allow consumers to be able to take their data with them, like they can now do in the telco world. \u201cI\u2019m an old telecom guy. That used to be really hard when you moved from one telco to another, until Congress mandated number portability,\u201d says Warner. \u201cSo as you move from AT&T to Verizon to T-Mobile, you can take your number with you. Could we introduce that same concept of data portability, so that you could move all of your history on Facebook, including your cat videos, to a new platform, if that new platform might have different rules of engagement,\u201d he asks.\nWarner says social media companies were \u201cfrankly irresponsible\u201d after the 2016 election. While the senator says these companies have improved since then, he also says letting them self-regulate just doesn\u2019t cut it.\nIBM\u2019s board needs to take hard look at CEO Ginni Rometty",

        "raw_content": "\"Review of the Food and Drug Administration's Handling of Issues Related to Conjugated Estrogens,\" (A-15-96-50002)\nComplete Text of Report is available in PDF format (1 mb). Copies can also be obtained by contacting the Office of Public Affairs at 202-619-1343.\nThis report provides the results of our review of the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) handling of issues related to conjugated estrogens (Premarin), a commonly prescribed product for menopausal symptoms and the prevention and management of osteoporosis. This review was performed at the request of the Chairman, Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, House Committee on Commerce.\nThe FDA is the Federal agency responsible for approving applications to market new drugs, new indications for already marketed drugs, and generic versions of brand name drugs. Conjugated estrogens products represent a class of marketed drugs used primarily for the treatment of menopausal symptoms in women and for the prevention and management of osteoporosis, a crippling disease that causes thinning of the bone. Wyeth-Ayerst is a drug manufacturer that markets: (1) Premarin, approved in 1942, which is made from the urine of pregnant mares and is the Nation's only conjugated estrogens product; and (2) Prempro, approved in 1994, which combines Premarin and another hormone called progestin. At this time, there are no approved applications to market generic versions of these brand name drugs.\nOnce a drug is approved, drug manufacturers are required to obtain FDA's approval before adding or deleting an ingredient, or otherwise changing the composition of a drug product, other than deletion of an ingredient intended only to affect the color of the drug product. Current regulations require that when there is a change in the manufacturing process, including a change in product formulation or dosage strength, beyond the variations provided for in the approved application, drug manufacturers are required to show that any reformulations are bioequivalent to the approved product.\nThe FDA uses a process called the citizen petition to allow anyone--individuals or companies--to request the agency to make changes to its regulations. In November 1994, Wyeth-Ayerst submitted a citizen petition requesting FDA to: (1) recognize an ingredient of Premarin--delta 8,9 (dehydroestrone sulfate (DHES))--as an essential (but not an active) ingredient in Premarin; and (2) not approve any generic version of Premarin that does not contain DHES. The firm amended its petition in December 1996 to request FDA to recognize DHES as an active ingredient. To date, FDA has not made a decision as to whether to approve Wyeth-Ayerst's citizen petition request. However, on May 5, 1997, FDA's Director, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), announced that, because the active ingredients of Premarin have not been adequately defined, the agency could not at this time approve generic applications for synthetic versions of conjugated estrogens. The FDA had been reviewing two such applications since 1994 and 1995, respectively.\nThe House Committee on Commerce, Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, has raised concerns that Wyeth-Ayerst may have made misrepresentations in its submissions to FDA regarding Premarin, and that FDA may have failed to adequately review such submissions. The Subcommittee requested the Office of Inspector General (OIG) in July 1996 to answer specific questions regarding: Premarin, another Wyeth-Ayerst product called Prempro, the citizen petition related to Premarin, and generic versions of Premarin.\nOur objective was to answer the Subcommittee's questions in the following three areas:\nPremarin: The questions focused on possible unapproved reformulations; whether the reformulations were bioequivalent; and the basis on which FDA allowed the continued marketing of Premarin.\nPrempro: The question focused on the basis on which Wyeth-Ayerst won approval for Prempro's use in the prevention and management of osteoporosis.\nWyeth-Ayerst's citizen petition regarding Premarin and generic versions of Premarin: The questions focused on FDA's examination of data and claims made in Wyeth-Ayerst's citizen petition and the agency's handling of brand name and generic versions of Premarin.\nPremarin: According to FDA, there have been no unapproved formulations of Premarin. Regarding the issue of bioequivalency among the formulations, however, we found that FDA does not have evidence demonstrating that the currently marketed formulation of Premarin is bioequivalent to the version tested for osteoporosis in the late 1970's. This is because no in vivo (i.e., in the living body) bioequivalence requirement was in effect for conjugated estrogens at that time. Concerned about lack of bioequivalency data and the continued safety and effectiveness of Premarin, FDA in 1993 directed Wyeth-Ayerst to conduct a new dose-ranging study of the drug. As of January 1997, 818 women, or about 30 percent of the total planned enrollment of 2,688, have entered into the multi-year study.\nPrempro: The Premarin tablet formulation used in the combination drug Prempro (Premarin/medroxyprogesterone acetate) slightly differed from the marketed Premarin, but Wyeth-Ayerst submitted in vivo bioequivalence data to demonstrate that the new and currently marketed formulations were bioequivalent.\nCitizen Petition and Generic Versions of Premarin: The FDA is in the process of reviewing the claims and data associated with Wyeth-Ayerst's citizen petition, which was submitted to the agency over 2 years ago. The FDA has thus far found deficiencies in the design of studies submitted to support Wyeth-Ayerst's claims, but no misrepresentations in data in the firm's studies have been identified. Regarding the Subcommittee's concern that FDA may have held generic drug firms to a higher standard than the brand-name maker of Premarin, Wyeth-Ayerst, we noted that the agency was also concerned about possible differing standards in terms of bioequivalency requirements for the generic and brand name versions. However, upon further investigation, FDA determined there were no unapproved reformulations of the brand name Premarin that would have required Wyeth-Ayerst to submit additional bioequivalency data.\nBeyond the Subcommittee's specific questions, we identified other concerns regarding the citizen petition process--namely that the process has been extended for an excessive period of time in the Wyeth-Ayerst case; and FDA does not have policies and procedures governing such an important process, one which can impact the marketability of generic versions of Premarin.",

        "raw_content": "Blame by Nicole Trope\n\u2018I am here because they suspect me of something. I am here because I am a suspect. I know that, she knows that. Everyone knows that.\u2019 Anna\n\u2018It wasn\u2019t my fault. None of this is my fault!\u2019 Caro\nCaro and Anna are best friends\u2026 they were best friends. Over a decade, Caro and Anna have bonded while raising their daughters, two little girls the same age but living two very different lives. The women have supported each other as they have shared the joys and trials of motherhood, but now everything has changed.\nThere\u2019s been a terrible car accident, an unimaginable tragedy that leaves both families devastated. Over two days as Caro and Anna each detail their own versions of events, they are forced to reveal hidden truths and closely guarded secrets.\nThe complicated lives of wives and mothers are laid bare as both women come to realise that even best friends don\u2019t tell each other everything. And when hearts are broken, even best friends need someone to blame.\nReading the blurb for Blame it sounded like my type of book. Two friends, a tragedy, secrets and lies. What could be better? Not much where this book is concerned, especially given how unexpectedly emotional it was too. It is well written, well plotted and has a clever way of letting the story unfold that drew me in from the first page.\nIt starts with Anna going to the police station. Her daughter is dead, killed by her best friend Caro in what sounds like a tragic accident. Only she and Caro were there and police want to understand what happened. It seems simple enough \u2013 so why is Anna so nervous and why is she telling herself to stay calm and stick to her story? It\u2019s a story Caro, who is in the interview room next door, tells differently. Yet it\u2019s one she is convinced no one will believe.\nWith each chapter alternating between their two witness statements a much more complicated story than it initially appears to be is told. For Caro and Anna life hasn\u2019t turned out as they planned and it has all culminated here. As I came to understand this, I started to feel for them. I also started to wonder just where the truth lay. Needing to find this out kept me turning the pages. As I did I went back and forth, first blaming one character then the other as their actions were revealed, both by their friend but also by themselves as they each seemed to realise that the truth was easier to tell than the lies they had been.\nThe police who took their statements, the husbands who tried to support them, were catalysts and so not fully formed (though they were detailed enough that I didn\u2019t feel something was missing). You see them only through Anna and Caro\u2019s eye. Both women were really well drawn though. I could picture them in my minds eye and they felt very real for me. Human, which is what this story was, and why it was more emotional than I thought. It wasn\u2019t just about secrets it was about honesty and misunderstandings, friendship and love, fear and pain. It is why I enjoyed it so much and why I would say it\u2019s a recommended read \u2013 loved it!\n11 thoughts on \u201cBlame by Nicole Trope\u201d\nI\u2019m not a big fan of this kind of family tragedy but the alternating chapters and the obviousness that something is very not right definitely have me curious. While not my normal read it sounds like a good one and one I\u2019ll have to look for!\nI\u2019m not either but this is great. It pulls at the heart string but not too cynically. I just found it so compelling.\nI just finished reading this too and you\u2019re right \u2014 it\u2019s a very human, tragic story. It made me question myself as well, and what I would do in Anna\u2019s position and I still don\u2019t know.\nNo I don\u2019t know either. I think I think I\u2019d be strong and positive but the reality is I probably would be just as tightly wound.\nI\u2019m glad you enjoyed this. I did as well\u2026 loved the way the women\u2019s lives and stories unfolded!\nI really did. I think how everything came out was so well done.\nThis Week, Next Week: 31st July, 2016 says:\n[\u2026] Blame by Nicole Trope, where a tragic accident tears two best friends apart and reveals secrets both would probably have liked to have kept hidden. This is my first book by Nicole Trope but won\u2019t be my last. I found it really well written and heart wrenching as well as a real page turner. [\u2026]\n[\u2026] Trope, whose book Blame I absolutely loved when I read it back in July. She has written six books but the one that really [\u2026]\nWeekly update: 21st May, 2017 says:\n[\u2026] choice of book but I couldn\u2019t resist starting it though after enjoying last years Blame so much. Plus, it\u2019s she\u2019s one of the authors I challenged myself to read more of in [\u2026]\nForgotten by Nicole Trope says:\n[\u2026] Blame [\u2026]",

        "title": "Weird Book Rituals | Onward Cyclops",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 Baby Shell Bechamel\nAt Home Desk \u2192\nOn Friday, I received the latest (and last) book in the Percy Jackson series: The Last Olympian. I\u2019ve been waiting for almost a year for this last book in the series. I\u2019m almost done with it and if I hadn\u2019t fallen asleep reading the past two nights (no fault of the book\u2026it\u2019s great. I blame my sleepiness on the NBA playoffs) I would be finished by now. I have this weird ritual involving the end of a book series, ok pretty much any new book, but I take special joy in celebrating the end of a series.\nFirst I have to hold the book for a few minutes. For as techie oriented as I am, I\u2019ll always choose to physically read a book in lieu of reading it on the computer. There are too many experiences involved in reading a book. I love the scent of a new book, and knowing that I\u2019m the first person to open the cover and flip through the pages.\nAfter just holding the book for a while, I start analyzing the cover art trying to identify any foreshadowing or symbolism. As terrible as this is for anyone (especially a librarian) to admit, I do occasionally judge a book by it\u2019s cover. Don\u2019t cringe, I know\u2026.it\u2019s a flaw. The artwork on some books (the US versions of Harry Potter \u2014 THANK you Mary GrandPre) are almost as delectable as the story inside.\nI\u2019m a font freak. I love looking at them, analyzing why a particular font was chosen. I like the shape of letters and the structures of words. I like looking at different text and seeing the impact of the typesetting and how it can alter and affect the tone of a book. I love when authors use different styles of fonts to indicate other speakers or change in time or setting.\nI need a quiet spot to read, most of the time I need to be alone in a room or in my bed with just my reading light on. Ever since I was a little girl, I would read late into the night. My mom used to have to take my books away so I could go to sleep. Even now, I\u2019ll read until the wee hours of the night just so I can finish a chapter or two. I\u2019m a little obsessed with finishing a book.\nWhen I was ready to read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, I sat in a recliner with a huge bottle of water, some snacks and a blanket. I held that book for at least 30 minutes before I even opened it. This was it. The end of it all. Soon, I would have all the answers I thought I was waiting for. 12 hours later I learned that wasn\u2019t true\u2026darn you JK Rowling!!\nWhen I read the last page and closed the book, I remember blowing out a huge sigh of relief. Relief that I had finished the series and that I saw something to completion. I had major surgery 5 months before the book was published and I remember trying to calm myself down on the way to the OR by repeating \u201cthings will be ok. I have to be around to find out what happens to Harry\u201d over and over. Inside my head\u2026otherwise they would have taken to the psych ward instead of the OR.\nI\u2019m a disgustingly fast reader and I continually have to force myself to read slowly so I can enjoy a book more, but it\u2019s a losing battle. I\u2019ve always been a fast reader and would often read 2 books a day when I was growing up. I\u2019ve been reading since a very early age and can\u2019t remember going a day without reading a book. I\u2019m so very lucky to have the financial means to feed my love of books. I\u2019m pretty sure I spend more money on books than I do on clothing. Is that wrong?\nwhat about you my fellow book lovers. Do you have any weird book rituals?\nThis entry was posted in Ramblings, Reading. Bookmark the permalink.\n2 Responses to Weird Book Rituals\nOk, when I get near the end of a really great book, I sometimes avoid actually finishing it because I know I will suffer post-reading depression. Of course, I do inevitably finish it. Then I actually get sad and lonely feelings. I know, I have some reality vs non-reality issues.\nI feel the exact same way. I\u2019m always forming unhealthy attachments, as I like to call them, with books and characters and places. That line between reality and fantasy is awfully blurry sometimes. Now I must rendezvous with Percy Jackson before Kronos comes back and causes another volcano to erupt.",

The interview was initially scheduled to happen in-person in Prague, but Mr. Smolka had to be absent from the city during Almaviva's visit, so we did it over Skype the week before, on June 23, 2012. Click on Read More then scroll down for the full interview. [Opera Lively interview # 33]\nMr. Smolka is the leading representative of his generation of Czech composers, widely recognized at home and abroad.\nFrom his student years he followed his own temperamental and aesthetic tendencies in a self-conscious way, seeking to define his own musical originality. He then systematically based his musical language on his introspective insights. It is a language dominated by slow tempos, \"detuned\" consonances, a dreamy, melancholic mood, and playfulness in the use and treatment of unusual sounds.\nIn 1983 he co-founded Agon, a group specializing in contemporary unconventional music in which he worked as artistic director and pianist until 1998. In the course of Agon projects he has also carried out research (quarter-tone music by the pupils of Alois H\u00e1ba, the 1960s in Prague), and the realization of graphic scores and conceptual music (the works by John Cage, Cornelius Cardew, Daniel Goode and Milan Grygar).\nHe co-authored the book Graphic Scores and Concepts. ...",

        "raw_content": "This Washington Post story about a Navy contractor hacked by the Chinese government should send shivers down the spines of cybersecurity chiefs across the U.S. It\u2019s safe to say the Navy won\u2019t be working with that unnamed, but very embarrassed, contractor in the future.\nWhile the Navy didn\u2019t want to give too many details, we do know that the data breach included \u201c614 gigabytes of material relating to a closely held project known as Sea Dragon, as well as signals and sensor data, submarine radio room information relating to cryptographic systems, and the Navy submarine development unit\u2019s electronic warfare library.\u201d\nThis story highlights the current conundrum for companies in the data access space: We want our data to be more accessible, more dynamic and more useful in everyday operations and maintenance regimes. On the other hand, we don\u2019t want free data transfer to turn into a feeding frenzy for hackers. If we have data access solutions \u201con the Edge\u201d or that involve frequent transfers of terabytes of data across geographic locations, we have to ensure there is encryption \u201con the wire\u201d as well as at rest, and install safeguards that deter hackers from exploring the \u201ccrown-jewel data sets\u201d that can make or break your company.\nWhile most companies employ a horde of engineers to scope out the latest firewall and encryption technologies, the key to a solution might lie more in company culture than in the code (and as we all know, hackers are often a few steps ahead of even the best security measures). If every data \u201clockbox\u201d is installed on the system, there is the danger of slowing data transfer speeds to a crawl or putting up obstacles that get in the way of data insights.\nHere are five ideas to keep everybody in the company on their toes:\nOffer a cash bonus each quarter to the person on your team who finds a vulnerability that wasn\u2019t seen before. Vigilance is everything\u2026 by the time an employee is reporting a breach, it\u2019s too late.\nOrganize a \u201chack-a-thon,\u201d in which engineers are challenged to break the system or gain access to otherwise locked data.\nHave a data breach plan done beforehand\u2026 in writing. That\u2019s right, if it\u2019s not on paper, it\u2019s only a memory of a meeting three months ago. A good data breach plan will have step-by-step protocols: what to shut down, for how long, and what diagnostics to run. Beyond the technical side, executives and customer- and media-facing employees need to have a consistent message about what happened and what\u2019s being done to fix it.\nDon\u2019t assume you\u2019re not a target because you\u2019re not Yahoo, Target or Sony. It\u2019s true that state actors often are looking at the biggest companies that have the largest data stores to exploit. But if there\u2019s one thing that\u2019s become clear in the last decade, it\u2019s that there are well-funded worldwide efforts by intelligence agencies (the U.S. included) to find usable data assets, no matter what it takes to get them. Even startups will be on the radar.\nDesign products with a \u201cmaximum security, minimum locked data\u201d mindset. There should be a designated decision-maker within your organization that is balancing this see-saw every day. There may be an irresistible urge to put a steel curtain down (a.k.a. air-gapped boxes in a server room) on your data. That\u2019s not the world we live in\u2026 with data freedom comes risk!",

        "raw_content": "by Will Demers\nAnthony Festa and Emily Bautista in the national tour of \"Miss Saigon.\"\nThe journey of an Asian woman left behind in her country by her American lover is based on Puccini's famous \"Madame Butterfly,\" but relocated to '70s era Vietnam, in a splashy, visually and emotionally arresting show. Nearly three decades old, the musical was a follow up to 1985's \"Les Miserables,\" written by Claude-Michel Schonberg and Alain Boublil and was a huge success in its initial run as well as many revivals.\n\"Miss Saigon\" kicked off a brand new North American tour at the Providence Performing Arts Center and it shouldn't be missed. The tale of an ill-fated love affair between Kim (Emily Bautista) and Chris (Anthony Festa) resonates with audiences willing to invest in a longer but incredible engaging show. Kim works for the Engineer (Red Concepcion) during the Vietnam war; she is sold nightly to the delight of several American soldiers. But at 17, she's frightened by the prospect of such slavery until she falls for one particular man who promises her a life in his home country. Separated by time and geography, she'll look everywhere for him, and he shall not forget her.\nChris' friend and fellow soldier John (J. Daughtry) is the one to find Kim, and also the one to tell Chris about her son, apparently the result of a single night with him. Now married to Ellen (Stacie Bono), Chris has to make a choice when confronted by Kim and her son; since promised to someone else, he cannot be with Kim but she wishes for him and Ellen to take their child and care for him. It must be noted that original Producer Cameron Mackintosh is very much a part of this revival, and it shows incredibly well throughout the evening. Director Laurence Connor shows local audiences what it must have been like to witness the spectacle of such an experience nearly thirty years ago in London.\nThe voices belonging to our cast carry the weight and power of such an emotionally driven work; both Bautista and Festa sell their pain in such numbers as \"The Last Night of the World\" and \"I'd Give My Life For You.\" Even Bono's number as she discovers Kim's declaration of love for Chris \"Maybe\" packs a wallop. But as the Engineer, Concepcion steals his scenes with a flamboyant flair and eye popping backup visuals and choreography, \"The American Dream\" and we cannot take our eyes off him. The supporting cast is no less talented and in such a slick production, the seamless transition between scenes make for a colorful night, as well as a host of set pieces that must be seen to be believed, including a helicopter taking away our American soldiers.\n\"Saigon\" won a host of awards during its initial run, breaking box office records in its wake. While here in Rhode Island, those wishing for a taste of true Broadway can see a show locally for its limited run. Get your tickets, and bring your theatre friends with you, none will be disappointed.\n\"Miss Saigon\" ran through September 30th at the Providence Performing Arts Center (PPAC) 220 Weybosset Street, Providence, RI 02903. For upcoming shows at PPAC, visit visit the PPAC website.\nFor more on the national tour of \"Miss Saigon,\" visit the show's website.",

        "raw_content": "International Cyber Attack: Roots Traced to US National Security Agency\nAndrei AKULOV | 14.05.2017 | WORLD\nOver 45,000 ransomware attacks have been tracked in large-scale attacks across Europe and Asia \u2014 particularly Russia and China \u2014 as well as attacks in the US and South America. There are reports of infections in 99 countries. A string of ransomware attacks appears to have started in the United Kingdom, Spain and the rest of Europe, before striking Japan, Vietnam and the Philippines on May 12. According to Kaspersky Laboratory, Russia, Ukraine, India and Taiwan were hit hardest. Mikko Hypponen, chief research officer at the Helsinki-based cybersecurity company F-Secure, called the attack \u00abthe biggest ransomware outbreak in history\u00bb. It is not known who exactly was behind it.\nThe overwhelming majority of the infections appeared in Russia. The ransomware hit about 1,000 computers at the Russian Interior Ministry, though the agency\u2019s servers were not affected thanks to using the national Elbrus operating system instead of Windows.\nThe US Department of Homeland Security has not confirmed any attacks in the US on government targets or vital industries, such as hospitals and banks.\nThe malicious code exploits a Windows flaw patched in Microsoft\u2019s Security Bulletin MS17-010 in March. The malware is usually covertly installed onto computers by hiding within emails containing links, which users are tricked into opening. A single computer infected can end up compromising the entire corporate network.\nThe malware is alleged to have been leaked or stolen from the National Security Agency (NSA) to be reportedly distributed by the Shadow Brokers, which claimed to have hacked an NSA-linked team of hackers last summer.\nThe hints about alleged \u00abRussia trail\u00bb have already appeared in Western media. According to NPR, the Shadow Brokers group, which is suspected of having ties to Russia, posted Windows hacking tools in April, saying it was a \u00abprotest\u00bb about US President Donald Trump. \u00abA computer hacking group known as Shadow Brokers was at least partly responsible. It is claimed the group, which has links to Russia, stole US National Security Agency cyber tools designed to access Microsoft Windows systems, then dumped the technology on a publicly-accessible website where online criminals could access it \u2013 possibly in retaliation for America\u2019s attack on Syria\u00bb, writes the Telegraph.\nEdward Snowden, the former CIA employee and NSA contractor, tweeted he was confident that the hackers used NSA tools. He believes that if the NSA had given an advance warning the hit structures and hospitals in other countries could have taken proper measures to repel the attack. Politico chimes in. \u00abFriday\u2019s attacks could have been avoided if the NSA had simply told Microsoft about the flaw earlier, digital privacy activists argued\u00bb, the prestigious outlet informs.\nSo, the National Security Agency tools were used, the NSA gave no warning and\u2026Russia, the hardest hit by the attack, is to blame! The same song and dance as usual. Of course, nothing like evidence to go upon has been produced like in all other cases when Moscow was blamed for each and everything going wrong everywhere. It\u2019s just that someone thinks that a group of hackers may have links to Russia and\u2026 nothing more. We\u2019ve seen it before.\nIn reality, it\u2019s an open secret that computers, routers and other equipment normally includes element of software that could be activated by US special agencies. Hackers simply found out how it works and decided to use it for personal gains. It shows that the NSA is working on powerful software to serve as a tool for global dominance.\nThe event demonstrates how important it is for major world powers to make cybersecurity top the international security agenda.\nToday, no international law regulates cyber operations. The 2015 in The Hague showed there are few chances for signing an international agreement to monitor cyber activities. The only international effort so far to adopt a self-regulatory approach to non-aggression in cyberspace was initiated by the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) in 2015. The details have been debates within the framework of the UN Group of Government Experts (GGE). Russia and China set an example for the world to follow by signing an agreement on information security in 2015.\nThe Russia-US cyber-security confidence-building package of agreements in 2013 foresaw similar cooperation and information exchange between the US and Russian computer emergency response teams (CERTs), the creation of a working group on emerging threats and the use of the existing nuclear hotline to communicate directly in a cyber crisis. It has never got off the ground and got stalled as the bilateral relations deteriorated in 2014.\nExperts could join the process to give the suspended 2013 package a new lease on life. The meetings of working group could be resumed. A hotline between Moscow and Washington could be reactivated to prevent escalation of cyber incidents between the two countries. The parties could start working on the first-ever non-aggression pact in cyber domain. The national centers for reduction of cyber threats could play an important role allowing the military of the two countries to notify each other about the attacks on crucial objects of infrastructure. They were used in 2014 during the Russian preparation for the Winter Olympics in Sochi with the operations suspended the same year.\nRussia and the US picked up the issue a year ago. They discussed drafting the norms and principles of responsible behavior in cyberspace and countering terrorism in the sphere of information technologies. It was a good start that to everyone\u2019s chagrin happened to be just another one-time event. The initiative seems to be swept under the rug overshadowed by other issues. In April, 2017 a United Nations cybersecurity experts group in Geneva, where Russian and America officials had a chance to meet but it\u2019s evidently not enough.\nThe recent cyberattack shows the time is right for intensifying international efforts to handle the burning problem. There is a hope. India is to host the 5th Global Conference on Cyber Space (GCSS) in the last quarter of 2017, in which over 100 countries are expected to participate. The recent attack rings an alarm bell. The upcoming event offers an opportunity not to be missed.\nTags: CIA Microsoft National Security Agency US\nPrevious Previous post: London Attack: Mossad-led ISIS Again Targeted the UK\nNext Next post: The Medical Marijuana Racket",

        "raw_content": "FYI- Lest You Forget: Israel\u2019s Chorus Sings Again Less than total loyalty to Israel is un-American\nPQC: It\u2019s the fucking Jews! Why don\u2019t you call them by their true names?\nPhilip Giraldi \u2022 August 15, 2017\nCongress is on a one-month summer recess. You would think that given the recent turmoil over the bill to eliminate Obamacare and the upcoming debate over tax policy the nation\u2019s legislators would be back in their home districts talking to the voters. Some are, but many are not. \u201cMore than fifty\u201d Congressmen are off on an all-expenses paid trip to Israel to demonstrate that \u201cthere is no stronger bond with any ally we have.\u201d Yes indeed, a congress which cannot pass legislation to benefit the American people finds that it has only one voice when it comes to our troublesome little client state that also doubles as the leading recipient of U.S. tax dollars in the world.\nHow do they do it? They do it by relentless courting of the congress critters and media talking heads, all of whom know how to repay a favor. Some readers might be asking how Congress (spouses included) can accept these free trips from a foreign government? The current trip is estimated to be costing $10,000 per person. Well, the answer is that they can\u2019t do it directly, which would be illegal, so the clever rascals at the American Israel Political Affairs Committee (AIPAC) have created an \u201ccharitable\u201d foundation that pays the bills. It\u2019s called the American Israel Education Foundation (AIEF). AIEF is a tax exempt 501(c)3 foundation that had income of more than $80 million in 2015. As it is tax exempt that means that its activities are, in effect, being subsidized by the U.S. Treasury so the congressmen are being \u201ccharitably educated\u201d while they are also being wined and dined and propagandized in part on the taxpayers\u2019 dime. A couple of the congress critters hardly hit the ground before they were singing the praises of their hosts, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy crooning \u201cWe have shared values! Shared security interests! No stronger bond!\u201d And plenty of feel-good all around as Israel is \u201cThe Only Democracy in the Middle East!\u201d\nDemocratic House Whip Steny Hoyer of Maryland, who has had his head up the Israeli derriere for decades, was also quick on the uptake, enthusing how support for Israel is completely bipartisan, \u201cWe are not here as Democrats and Republicans, we are here as Americans who support Israel\u2019s security, its sovereignty and the safety of its people.\u201d And as if it is not enough to go around bragging how one is subordinating U.S. sovereignty to that of Israel, the gnomes are hard at work back at home preparing to pass into law the Israel Anti-Boycott Act, which will criminalize for many Americans their First Amendment right to criticize Israel, and a completely bipartisan bit of new legislation being pushed by the Israeli government that will take away aid currently given to the Palestinians as long as the Palestinian Authority continues to provide subsidies to help support the families of those individuals being held prisoner by the Israelis. As most aid actually goes towards training Palestinian security forces that are intended to prevent terror attacks against Israelis, the bill is as wrong-headed as can be, but it just goes to show how far Congress will go to punish Arabs on behalf of Israel.\nAnd finally there has been a series of Israel-centric attacks on leading members of the Trump Administration. A month ago, the State Department released its annual Country Reports on Terrorism for 2016. The report, as always, describes threats of violence in the Middle East from an Israeli perspective, but it was honest enough to also include two sentences that state that \u201cContinued drivers of violence included a lack of hope in achieving Palestinian statehood, Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank, settler violence against Palestinians\u2026and IDF tactics that the Palestinians considered overly aggressive. The PA has [also] taken significant steps\u2026to not create or disseminate content that incites violence.\u201d\nB\u2019nai B\u2019rith immediately blasted the report for \u201cparroting the false Palestinian narrative\u201d and the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) demanded that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson resign because the report was \u201cbigoted, biased, anti-Semitic, Israel hating, error ridden.\u201d ZOA went on to praise the co-chairman of the Republican Israel Caucus, Congressman Peter Roskam for demanding that the State Department correct the \u201cnumerous mischaracterizations\u201d in the report.\nTillerson has long been a target of the American-Jewish media because of the perception that oil company executives are traditionally not friendly to Israel. There have also been claims that he is \u201cless hard\u201d on Iran than the Israel Lobby would like. But what Tillerson is really experiencing is the hard truth regarding Israel: that its Lobby and friends in congress are both unrelenting and unforgiving. Even when they get 90% of the pie they are furious over someone else getting 10%.\nDonald Trump\u2019s National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster has also been under siege for the past several weeks and his \u201cloyalty\u201d to Israel is now under the microscope. McMaster made the mistake of firing three National Security Council officials that were brought in by his predecessor Michael Flynn. The three \u2013 Ezra Cohen-Watnick, Rich Higgins, and Derek Harvey \u2013 are all regarded by the Israel Lobby as passionately pro-Israel and virulently anti-Iran. It was therefore inevitable that McMaster would take some heat, but the \u201cspeed and intensity\u201d of the attacks has surprised even The Atlantic, which failed to note in its thorough examination of the development that while much of the anger flows from extreme right-wing sources there is also considerable pressure coming directly from friends of Israel.\nIt is interesting to note just how and by whom the argument against McMaster is being framed. Caroline Glick, an American-born Israeli journalist who might reasonably be described as extreme right wing, has led the charge in a posting that described McMaster as \u201cdeeply hostile to Israel.\u201d She cites anonymous sources to claim that he refers to Israel as an occupying power and also has the audacity to claim that there once existed a place called Palestine. Oh, and he apparently also supports the nuclear agreement with Iran, as does Tillerson.\nMcMaster\u2019s other crimes consist of allegedly altering the agenda of Donald Trump\u2019s recent trip to Israel in ways that are somewhat arcane but which no doubt contributed to Glick\u2019s sense of grievance. What is most interesting, however, is the unstated premise supporting Glick\u2019s point of view, which is that the United States national security team should be subject to approval by Israel. Her view is not dissimilar to what lies behind the attacks on Tillerson and the real irony is that neither Tillerson nor McMaster has actually demonstrated any genuine animosity towards Israel, so the whole process is part of a perverse mindset that inevitably sees nearly everything as a threat.\nWe Americans are way beyond the point where we might simply demand that Israel and its partisans butt out of our politics. Israel-firsters are literally deeply embedded everywhere in the media, in politics at all levels, in academia, and in the professions. They are well funded and highly disciplined to respond to any threats to their hegemony. Their policy is to never give an inch on anything relating to Israel and their relentless grinding is characteristic of how they behave. The Israel Lobby controls Congress and can literally get any bill it wants through the legislature. And it also has its hooks in the White House, though the unpredictable Trump obviously makes many American Zionists nervous because it is rightly believed that once the president takes a position on anything he cannot be trusted either to understand what he has committed to or to stick with it subsequently.\nSo what is to be done? To match the passion of the Israel Lobby we Americans have to become passionate ourselves. Do what they do but in reverse. Write letters to congressmen and newspapers opposing the junkets to Israel. When a congress critter has a town hall, show up and complain about our involvement in the Middle East. Keep mentioning the pocket book issues, i.e. how Israel costs the taxpayer $9 million a day. Explain how its behavior puts our diplomats and soldiers overseas in danger. The reality is that Israel is built on a lot of lies promoted by people who frequently cite the holocaust every time they turn around but who have no actual regard for humanity outside their own tribe. The hypocrisy must stop if the United States is to survive as a nation. Pandering to Israel and engaging in constant wars to directly or indirectly defend it, be they against Iran or in Syria, will wear our country down and erode our freedoms. We are already on a slippery slope and it is past time to put our own interests first.\nPrevious Previous post: Israeli Lobby\u2019s Bill in German Parliament: \u2018Critique of Israel is Antisemitism\u2019\nNext Next post: It\u2019s Pure Barbarism!

A Comparison of the Use of Reward Systems Between Sectors\nAbstract This is a study about reward system, which essentially is a steering instrument that organizations can use in order to motivate the employees to work in the best interest for the organization, and hence the organization can affect the behavior of its employees. The purpose with this study is to see how companies in different sectors make use of a reward system in order to increase their effectiveness and efficiency. The aim is also to see to what extent organizations are linking the organizational goals with the individual goals that occur within an organization. A comparison between the sectors will be done in order to observe similarities as well as differences. As groundwork of this thesis theories regarding motivation and effectiveness and efficiency will be used. The research question is based on the purpose with this study and is stated as follows: \u201cIn what way are organizations using a reward system to motivate the employees to work in the best interest of the organization and reach organizational goals?\u201d In order to answer our research question we have conducted a qualitative study. We have made two interviews with different companies within three different sectors, a total of six interviews. The sectors that we have chosen to focus on are the construction sector, the production sector and the service sector. The interviews were all face to face meetings in Ume\u00e5. The empirical findings have then been analysed by linking them to the theories used in our theoretical framework. The main conclusions we have made are that the construction sector follows traditions when it comes to a reward system. We could also see that companies within the service sector that provide their services to the construction sector are influenced by the construction companies in the way they make use of a reward system. These companies are focusing primarily on profitability and results when rewarding. Within the production sector the companies where working sufficient with the individual goals in order to stimulate motivation and in the end increase the effectiveness and efficiency. Based on our finding this is the sector that is working most satisfactorily with the individual goals that occur within an organization. Further, we could see dissimilarities between the two companies in the service sector, the way they make use of a reward system differs a lot, which we believe is based on the fact that one of the two companies did not have a lot of resources to put on rewards. Further we could conclude that the more developed reward system an organization has and considers it to be a steering instrument the more thoroughly developed will the groundwork for it be. Some similarities that we could see within all three sectors were that they all were using financial as well as non financial rewards and that the rewards were given to both individuals and to teams.\nKey words: effectiveness, efficiency, motivation, reward, reward system\nAcknowledgements This master thesis is a result of seven weeks intensive, but fun, work and we want to take the opportunity to send our acknowledgement to important people who made all this possible.

The Ability to Motivate The first chapter in this study will present the problem background and discuss the relationship between motivation and rewards. The knowledge gap in the research field will be discussed, which will lead to our research question as well as the purpose with the study. The reward system and efficiency Most organizations seek to optimize their return on investment and in order to do that they need to be efficient. One way to improve the productivity is to optimize the utilization of the organizations human capital.1 In order to maintain the organizational efficiency and productivity the managers and board members can use different steering instruments to control the activities in the company. One of these steering instruments available is the use of a reward system which purpose is to motivate the employees to act in the best interest of the organization as well as to reach organizational goals.2 John Stredwick states in his study that along with the changes in the business markets the way employees are being rewarded is also changing. The companies need to make sure that they stay in their competitive position with the help of a conscious human resource management. The reward has a central role in the organizational performance since it will support and help to fine tune the groundwork for success that is the human capital.3 Organizations are highly dependent on their human capital and a motivated staff can ensure the survival of the company. By using a reward system as a steering instrument the organizations can lead their employees to a wanted behavior.4 Regina M. Clark means in her paper that there is previous research that indicates that the motivation among the employees has a positive relationship with the productivity of the organization.5 This indicates that human resource management has a possibility to create many competitive advantages if the companies are able to manage it well and motivate through the reward system.6 There are, hence, many reasons for why it is so important for the organizations to motivate their employees in a sufficient way. When this is done, it can create a win-win situation for both the employees as well as for the company. Motivation to work Work motivation for the employees can be viewed through the lens of the rational economic man model which gives an explanation to the relationship between behavior and motivational characteristics. The model sees the human being as someone who finds a reward as something that is desirable and can be obtained through the conduct of a particular action or work. The model also states that the individuals will feel motivated by the reward and therefore do the work as they have been told to.7 The human being makes a rational comparison between the 1\nAppelbaum H.

The model also states that the individuals strive for maximum satisfaction through chasing more monetary rewards.8 We can therefore say that a reward, and foremost a monetary reward, has a possibility to influence the employees to work in a certain way. The way they work could potentially become more efficient if the managers provide instruction for the right activity otherwise the employees might work in the wrong directions. A reward system does not have to consist only of monetary rewards; Wayne Turk is one of many researchers that state in their studies that money is no longer the number one motivation factor for employees9. Monetary rewards can have a de-motivating effect in some situations, for example individual monetary bonuses are not appropriate for team work since individuals are keener on getting their personal bonuses rather than performing good results with the team10. As can be seen there are different opinions about what motivates employees and even though money is often the first thing that comes to one\u2019s mind we question whether or not money is the number one motivational factor that companies use today. Rewarding to achieve goals Even if numerous studies have showed that non-monetary rewards can be just as effective in improving performance as the monetary rewards most of the focus has been on the money.11 This can in some sense be explained by the rational economic man where the human beings make their decisions based on financial rewards available to them. When a company is implementing a reward system it is crucial for the managers to keep in mind that what motivates one employee might not motivate another employee and that these motivation factors might change over time as people will enter new stages of their life.12 Therefore it is possible that money is a motivation factor for some employees while other may seek other options as a motivational factor. John Stredwick is one of the researchers that show in his study that it is important that the rewards are aligned with the organizational goals in order to create efficiency. 13 Every organization has goals for the future and there are many different ways for organizations to pursue the goals.14 This thesis will focus on the reward system and how organizations can make use of that in a way that will benefit both the organization as well as the employees in the end. The organization wants the employees to work in their best interest in order for the organization to become more efficient and effective and to gain competitive advantage. To get the employees to work towards the goals of the organization a reward system is useful. By rewarding employees for their effort to achieve the organizational goals the employees will be motivated to continue to work in the best interest for the organization. However to create a reward system that is fulfilling its purpose is not easy. There are a number of aspects that have to be taken in consideration by the managers in order for the reward system to be accepted by, 8\nFreeman B.

One of the main obstacles is to recognize that every employee has personal goals with the job and to combine them with the organizational goals is a highly important but also difficult task for the managers. However by overcoming this obstacle and for the employees to reach their personal goals as part of the organizational goals will be a tremendous motivational factor for the employees.15 Our discussion has showed that there is a connection between the reward and the overall performance of the company. This is due to the human resources (HR) within each company that has the ability to enhance their efficiency when motivated. There are several strategies in how this HR management will take place; hence, they will also have different impact on the performance16. If the reward is not in alignment with the organizational goal the efficiency will suffer.17 Research has showed that different strategies and goals together with different HR strategies i.e. different reward systems, generates different outcomes in performance and efficiency. We make an assumption for this thesis that there will be different goals for different companies as well as for different sectors. The knowledge gap When we reviewed the literature for this thesis we found that the theories regarding controlling instruments were slightly quadrangular when it came to including the nuances of humans. Organizations consist of human capital that all have their own agenda with their work that might not always be aligned with the organizations. There are several strategies available for managers in order to influence the employees and to motivate. The theories of controlling instruments and foremost reward system are treating all organizations as unanimous and do not take in consideration that they exists in separate contexts. Different sectors could have separate presupposition depending on the differentiation in their markets hence, we make the assumption that this effects how they can and will motivate their employees. We feel that the theories are treating all sectors the same regardless the fluctuation that we, in this study, assume exists between sectors. Since these strategies combined with the organizational goal creates an outcome that are not the same for all companies we came down to our research question. 1.1 Research question In what way are organizations using a reward system to motivate the employees to work in the best interest of the organization and reach organizational goals? 1.2 Purpose With this thesis we would like to study how organizations today are making use of a reward system to motivate their employees to become more effective and efficient and thus conduct their work in the best interest for the organization. We also want to look at the reward system that the organizations are offering their employees to see if there are any differences and/or similarities between organizations in different sectors. Further we also aim to see if employers today are offering their employees more options than just monetary rewards. 15\nAtkinson Anthony A., et al., (1997), \u201dManagement accounting\u201d, Prentice Hall International Editions, 2nd edition, passim 16 Tung-Chun Huang, (2001),\u201dThe effects of linkage between business and human resource management strategies\u201d, Personnel Review,Vol. 30 No. 2, pp. 132-151 17 Stredwick John, (2000), pp. 9-18\n1.3 Limitations We will limit our study to not look at the reward system as a way to attract new employees rather we will study how organizations are using a reward system to retain current employees. This limitation is done based on the fact that we as authors are more interested in studying the importance that a reward system has in motivating employees to be loyal to the organization. Further, in this study we will not look at the base pay as a part of the reward system. We consider this to be a presumption for the employees to carry out their work in the first place. However we will study the salary system in order to see how the respondents relate it to their reward system. 1.4 Definitions Reward system: \u201cProcedures, rules, and standards associated with allocation of benefits and compensation to employees\u201d18 We will use this concept parallel with incentive systems and compensation systems as a way to motivate the employees to strive for reaching organizational goals. Reward: We will, in this study, treat a reward both as a financial reward but also in terms of employee benefits.19 Motivation: \u201cA person\u2019s interest or drive to act in a certain way\u201d20 Efficiency: \u201cComparison of what is actually produced or performed with what can be achieved with the same consumption of resources (money, time, labour, etc.). It is an important factor in determination of productivity\u201d21 Effectiveness: \u201cDegree to which objectives are achieved and the extent to which targeted problems are resolved. In contrast to efficiency, effectiveness is determined without reference to costs and, whereas efficiency means \"doing the thing right,\u201d effectiveness means \"doing the right thing.\u201d22 Financial rewards: For the sake of this study we will consider all financial rewards as rewards that can be linked to a cost for the organization. This will be done regardless if the reward itself will contribute any money in terms of cash to the employee. Monetary reward: In this study we will consider a monetary reward as a reward that is given to an employee that consists of money in any form. Non financial rewards: As an opposite of the financial reward a non-financial reward will not be linked to a cost for the organization. This type of reward might constitute of feed-back or social recognitions for the work done.23 18\nhttp://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/reward-system.html 2009-02-07 time 14:04 Armstrong Michael, (2003) \u201dEmployee reward\u201d, 3rd edition, CIPID House, p. 8 20 Atkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), p. 646 21 http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/efficiency.html 2009-01-30 time 11:51 22 http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/efficiency.html 2009-01-30 time 12:05 23 Stajkovic D.

Theoretical approach for the study In this chapter we will discuss the different approaches of the thesis and how these will influence our theoretical framework and consequently also the outcome of the study. We will also discuss how we as researchers can influence the work and the result through our preconception. 2.1 Mindset of the study Our conscious and unconscious conjecture regarding how the world around us is shaped will have an impact on the layout and also on the content of this study. These conjectures are often aggregated in a research term of a paradigm. The paradigm holds all aspects of what is important in the study and is based in the researcher\u2019s mindset. The mindset comes from both our previous experiences as well as our education. This ultimately puts both restraints as well as possibilities to the study and to us as researchers.24 In this study the paradigm constitutes of our preconceptions as researchers and our scientific and research approach. In the following sections we aim to give the reader a guide to how our paradigm is shaped and how this will affect the thesis. Perspective of the thesis The paradigm also includes our view point on which our research question is based. This view point or perspective will determine what we as researchers will include in our study and what is seen as important.25 In our study we aim to answer our research question from an employer\u2019s point of view. The aim is to give a theoretical comparison of how the employers relate to the issue of motivation of the employees through reward systems. We have chosen this approach over the possibility of viewing the study from an employee\u2019s point of view. This choice is done since the employer\u2019s perspective, according to us, will fill a bigger knowledge gap in the literature when studying and comparing different sectors. The employers\u2019 perspective gives us an opportunity to find a deeper understanding of how the theories of motivation are used in the organizations in order to create efficiency. 2.2 Concept of reality Our concept of reality or the ontological approach in this study will depend on our ability to view the information in an objective or subjective way. This will influence the methodological way we choose in order to study the problem and thereby in a sense the results. By viewing the reality through a subjective lens we would make the assumption that the reality is depending on us as actors and will therefore become a social construction.26 An objective approach, on the other hand, would influence this study to look at the reality as existing regardless of us individuals. Objectivism sees social phenomenon as something separate from us individuals and we are not capable to affect them. The outside environment will tell us what to do and we are strictly forced by rules and procedures.27 In this study we see our respondents as highly involved in their own creation of their reality. Even if organizations have rules and regulations to follow, they will have the ability to structure and 24\nLundahl Ulf, Sk\u00e4rvad Per-Hugo, (1999), \u201dUtredningsmetodik f\u00f6r samh\u00e4llsvetare och ekonomer\u201d, Studentlitteratur, Lund, p. 60 25 Ibid. pp.62-63 26 Arbnor Ingeman, Bjerke Bj\u00f6rn, (1994), \u201dF\u00f6retagsekonomisk metodl\u00e4ra\u201d, Lund, Studentlitteratur, p. 231 27 Bryman Alan, Bell Emma,(2005), \u201dF\u00f6retagsekonomiska forskningsmetoder\u201d, Liber, p. 33\nrestructure their business regardless of the outside environment. These changes do not happen strictly on the basis of an outside force. Organization can set up a reward system and thereby creating their own social construction. Even if we were to see similarities within the same industry they are based on different concepts of realities. Based on this we see the study as not being strictly objective or subjective even if our concept of reality tends to lean more on the subjective approach. 2.3 Scientific approach for the study Our main scientific approach for this study is based in the hermeneutic view of reality. We will try to interpret the information we gather so that it will reflect the intent of its originator. We will create our notion in the subject through the context of the information and we will try to create an understanding of the questions regarding our problem area. We have created our opinion of the problem through the lens of our respondents and literature for this study and we aim to create a deeper understanding of the issue.28 As a hermeneutic researcher we look at the world as there are numerous views of the reality and that the sum of these will create the real reality. Since our respondents will have different backgrounds their decisions will also be dependent on these and it is therefore important for us to realize the context the choices are made in. Our aim is not to separate decisions regarding reward system from the individuals perspective but rather from the perspective of the organizations and the industry it belongs to. Hence, for this study the context of the respondent will constitute of the industry the company belongs to. 2.3.1 Research approach Our perception of knowledge will also influence how we relate to the theories and it results in our research approach. The deductive research approach relates to the theories in a way that the research question is founded in previous and known theories. If we were to conduct an inductive approach we would have collected our empirical data before looking at the theories.29 When conduction this study we set an open mind to the use of both approaches when relating to the theories. This was done in order to maintain a high quality of the theories and to make sure that we did not miss any important aspects. However, this study is made with a deductive approach rather than an inductive since the latter approach was never used. 2.4 Preconception It is also important to recognize the researchers view on reality when discussing the concept of reality in this study. Our previous experiences will influence this study in the sense that we use our prior knowledge when we formulate a problem. Our precognition will also influence us as researchers as we search for theories for the study. The gap between our knowledge and the reality creates a field of possibilities of formulating a problem. We thereby can say that we use our knowledge previously gathered in order to create new knowledge. It is our preconception of the world that determines how we will look upon our research problem and it will also impact what we see as important knowledge.30 Based on this we will here present our precognitions as we see it and give an evaluation on the impact it may have. We have both been employees in numerous companies that belong to different sectors and branches. Our main experiences are gathered from the retail, service and production industry. 28\nBryman Alan, Bell Emma,(2005), p. 443 Ibid, pp. 23- 25 30 Bjerke Ulf, Demker Marie, Hinnfors Jonas, (2002), \u201dVarf\u00f6r vetenskap?\u201d, Studentlitteratur, Lund 29\nThis experience has given us firsthand knowledge of being at the receiving end of the content of a reward system. Therefore we have a pre set understanding of some part of what an employee can gain from such a system. We also have a pre set opinion of what constitutes a motivating hence also a non motivating reward based on the work we did and both our personalities. We consider that this preconception will have a limited impact on the result of the study as whole since we are not conducting the study from the perspective of an employee but rather from the perspective of the employers. This is an assumption we make based on the fact that we have not been involved in the creating process of a reward system. This study\u2019s purpose is not to search for the level of efficiency of the component parts in a reward system in terms of motivating but rather what parts the organizations use. We are both business administration students and we consider our education as a positive influence in our study. Our academic education will help us to critically revise the literature at hand and thereby be able to screen out information that will not be of any help for this study. Our main education is based in business administration and this would potentially hinder us to view the problem from another perspective such as a psychological perspective for example. For instance the managers that are managing the reward system in the organization could make the choices from more than a strategic and economic point of view. The fact that we are business administration would potentially create a hinder for us to broaden our view on the problem area if it reaches outside the field of business administrations. To ensure that we do not leave out any important aspects, outside our education, we have done some intense review of the literature to find new angles to our problem area. This will help this study to ensure the validity and also the reliability of the result. 2.5 Literature search In our search for information regarding the problem background, the theoretical framework as well as the reference literature, we have used the search help Sams\u00f6k at the Ume\u00e5 University library. The scientific articles used in this study are retrieved from Helecon, Ebsco, PsycArticles (APA) and Emerald full text databases and in some cases also through Google Scholar. The books are retrieved with the help of the local library catalog, Album, at the University library web page. 2.5.1 Criticism of the literature In our theoretical framework we have used theories that have been developed in the middle of the past century. Even if the theories are relatively old they are highly important in order to understand newer theories. Most of the updated literature regarding our problem area refers to some basic ground theories and we feel that it is important to have them in our study as well. To ensure that our theories will not be out of date we have backed up the older theories with new research. We have also searched for literature outside our main field of expertise i.e. outside the field of management and business administration. This makes our theoretical framework more solid and comprehensive and our analysis will hence be more substantial. In order to maintain as high quality as possible of the articles we have used the Academic Journal Quality Guide to make sure that the articles as well as the journals are reliable. The Academic Journal Quality Guide is compiled by The Association of Business Schools and they rank the journals depending on their status in the particular field. This guide was handed to us by our tutor Nils W\u00e5hlin.\n3. Theoretical framework We will now present the theoretical framework for this study. The main concepts that will be discussed are rewards and reward system, motivation and efficiency and effectiveness. In the end of this chapter we will present a model that ties the different concepts together which will give the reader an overview of the theories as well as an understanding of how we as authors consider the concepts to relate to each other. 3.1 Reward, reward system and salary In order to create a meaningful understanding of the theories used in this study we need to start with a general discussion of reward and reward system and the concepts of the expressions. We will then link each theory to the intended position in both the study as well as how the theories fit into the reward system. In the book \u201cEmployee Reward\u201d by Michael Armstrong reward system is defined by the World Work (2000) as the tools available and used by the employers in order to attract, retain, motivate and satisfy their employees. The concept of reward system also includes all investment made in the organizations human capital and everything that the employees find attractive in the employment relationship.31 A reward system is a combination of financial rewards as well as employee benefit and these two elements combined together compose the total remuneration for the employee. The total reward system also embodies non-financial rewards which also includes performance management processes. An important aspect of this is that even if a benefit regards increased health care in form of medical attention, as an example, this will impose as a financial reward since it is linked to a cost for the organization. So for this study we have chosen to consider all financial reward as rewards that inflict a cost to the organization even if it does not generate hard cash to the employee.32 A reward system is built around five main components that all include financial rewards, benefits and non-financial rewards. There is a process of measuring and evaluate the work of the individuals in order to decide the level of employee benefits that need to be distributed. A reward system also needs a practice for motivating using financial and non-financial rewards. These practices constitute of the financial reward in form of payment, both base and variable, as well as employee benefits. It also includes non-financial rewards that originate from the work itself and effective management.33 The aim is to assemble these steps so that the organizations gather all of the competences and recourses that lie among the employees. The reward system\u2019s sole purpose is to motivate the employees in order to maximize the efficiency of the organization by creating a steering- and management instrument. The motivation is thought to rise from the rewards ability to create a team spirit, a loyalty to the company and to increase the employee\u2019s knowledge of the company\u2019s results.34 The reward system needs to balance these processes in order to obtain joint goals for the organization by motivation.35 By using the right rewards the managers and the employers can stimulate the employees to create job satisfaction and to act in a certain way. If the employees respond as 31\nArmstrong Michael, (2003), p. 8 Ibid, p. 8 33 Armstrong Michael, (2003), p. 4 34 Svensson Arne, Wilhelmsson Lars, (1988), \u201dBel\u00f6ningssystem\u201d, SIPU, p. 67 35 Ibid, p. 36 32\nintended this can ultimately increase the organizational efficiency, hence, create competitive advantages.36 The system also needs structure so that the level of reward meets the value of the positions in the organization and schemes for providing the individuals with financial rewards that meet their performance. It is also necessary to create appropriate procedures in order to maintain the system so that the reward system creates efficiency within the human capital.37 The salary is part of the reward system as a financial reward that the employees get as a reimbursement for a job accomplished. But the salary is often not considered to be a reward since we take the basic pay for granted. Very few employees would consider working for no money at all and the salary is therefore considered to be an established right for the employee and therefore creates no extra stimulus. The salary is merely compensation to the employee for providing a resource and the reward itself is considered to be something extra outside the salary.38 With that in mind this study will not put any regards to base salary when we talk about rewards and instead we will focus on the rewards that are given to the employee in excess of the base salary. This is an element of a flexible salary system where the reward is connected to a flexible part that changes depending on the performance of either the company or the employee itself39. 3.2 Motivation in theory The use of a reward system, as earlier discussed, is a tool for the organizations in order to motivate the employees so that they can be efficient. In order to answer our research question it is vital to understand motivation and how it fits in the organizational context. Motivation, as a concept, can be divided into being either an intrinsic or extrinsic motivation. The intrinsic motivation comes from inside the employee and is without any obvious external incentives. An intrinsic motivation regards the work itself and motivation comes from satisfaction from the actualization of the work procedure. The intrinsic reward is based in the work and how the work procedure and its content are laid out. An extrinsic motivation, on the other hand, is the external motivation that is triggered by influences from the outside the employee. In order to stimulate an extrinsic motivation within the employee the employer can use external rewards and incentives.40 In the following sections we will discuss more in detail what motivation is and how the managers and employers can create motivation by using a reward system. 3.2.1 Content theories The starting point in the creation of a motivation within the employees is based in the needs of the individuals41. The common denominating in the theories regarding the needs assume that the process of creating motivation origin from an unsatisfied need42. The collected theories regarding the needs are called content theories of motivation and all reflects upon the specific things inside the employee or the human that influences the motivation43. 36\nSvensson Arne, Wilhelmsson Lars, (1988), p. 10 Armstrong Michael, (2003), p. 4 38 Svensson Arne, Wilhelmsson Lars, (1988), p. 11 39 Smitt Raoul et al.,(2002),\u201cBel\u00f6ningssystem \u2013 Nyckel till framg\u00e5ng\u201d, Norstedts Juridik AB, p. 12 40 Frey S.

He stated that there were some basic needs for the human being that can be assembled in a hierarchic way. These needs are explained in the individual\u2019s perspective and not from the employers. The decision to include Maslow hierarchy of needs is based on the reason that most of the theories regarding motivation are building upon the theory created by Maslow. Therefore we find it necessary to include this theory as an explanation to other theories, even if Maslow\u2019s hierarchy of needs is not specifically linked to our perspective. We will however include some parts of the hierarchy in our study as well as there will be parts that will be excluded. To ensure that this will be obtainable for the reader a discussion will be held referring to the reasons of excluding parts. At the bottom of the pyramid there are the physical needs and Maslow meant that they were the foundation to motivation. These are the bodily needs that the individual has such as food, water, sleep and shelter. If they are not satisfied other possible needs in the hierarchy will not be seen as relevant. When the physical needs are satisfied the need for safety arises. Maslow defines safety as the inner need of feeling safe and protected. It also includes the need for structure and order as well as the need of rules and regulations. Both the physical and safety needs are often combined together as they indicate the need that we have to satisfy before we even start to care about anything else.44 These physical needs and safety needs are, however, not relevant for this study as we make the assumption that these needs are taken care of regardless of the organization. This assumption is also based on the employer\u2019s perspective of this study since the ability to be fed, find sleep or even a roof over his/her head is more connected to the individual itself rather than the company he/she works for. Even if we might argue for the importance of safety for the employees in their workplace as well as what structure and regulation in the company is important, this will not fit within our perspective. We have laws in Sweden that regulates how the work place can and must be designed in order to make sure that the works are protected and safe45. We can therefore make an assumption that the companies that operate in Sweden have strong incentives to make sure that they follow these rules regarding the safety of the employees. The safety that Maslow refers to is the overall safety in the society and the structure of laws that over bridge all people living in the same environment46. We will in this thesis consider the reward system to be more focused on the latter need in Maslow hierarchy which concerns the needs of doing and being. The need of self actualization and self esteem The third need that Maslow proposes is the need of belongingness where the individual have the need to fit in and be loved.47 The employee might feel the need to belong to a group and feel team spirit at the work place. It is then the employer\u2019s duty to supply the employees as well as it is the employer\u2019s ability to create an organizational culture that nurtures this need. Once the individual finds his/her place in the group the need for building the self-esteem and find respect occur. This is the need of being confident and finds achievement in the tasks that we perform. This also includes the need of self reputation and prestige in the work that we perform. This can be obtained from harmony in the work force and the possibility for the individuals to feel as being part of a community at the workplace.48 This can be actualized by activities at the work place in which all of the companies\u2019 members can be a part of and that 44\nMaslow H. Abraham, (1954), \u201dMotivation and personality\u201d, Harper and Rowe, New York, pp.35 http://www.av.se/ 2009-01-28, 09.37 46 Maslow H. Abraham, (1954), pp.35 47 Ibid, pp.35 48 Ibid, pp.35 45\ntakes place outside the actual work. It can also be actualized in recognizing unique competences and promoting. This leads to the needs of being and self-actualization in the individual. This means that the individual has the need of using all of its potential and be in charge of their own life and in some sense the creativity.49 Two-factor theory This chain of thought made by Maslow was taken a step further by Hertzberg when he created his two-factor theory on motivation. Hertzberg divided the needs into two categories of factors, hygiene factors and motivator factors. Hygiene factors relate to the needs that involve the context of the work and if these needs are not satisfied or are below an accepted level of the employee there will appear job dissatisfaction.50 Hertzberg\u2019s hygiene factors can be related to Maslow hierarchy of needs and primarily the basic needs in the bottom of the hierarchy. The hygiene needs accommodate the need that rise from Maslow\u2019s proposed physical needs, safety needs, social need of belonging and self-esteem.51 These needs are being described by Herzberg as needs that do not make the employees satisfied in their job, the needs merely avoid dissatisfaction if fulfilled. The hygiene needs refer the working conditions and how well we relate to our coworkers and if we are appreciated. If these needs are neglected they can have a negative impact on the result of the individual work performance. As an opposite if the needs are fulfilled we do not automatically feel satisfied with our work, hence, not automatically being efficient. It can, however, remove obstacles that prevent us from having a positive job attitude. The motivator factors, on the other hand, concerns the content of the work itself and can generate more directly a job satisfaction. The satisfaction originates from the individual\u2019s own fulfillment of self-actualization when performing the job. The distinct difference between the two factors of Herzberg is that the hygiene factor relates to satisfy the need of fair treatment. The motivator factor is more a question of satisfying the need for creativity in our work.52 Motivator factor can also be linked to the top of the hierarchy of needs by Maslow. The motivator needs are overlapping the hygiene needs when it comes to the self-esteem since it can affect both how creative we are in our work as well as how well treated I consider myself to be. The main theme for the motivators is still the need for growing and achievement at our work which is the same as the top need in the hierarchy of needs. The employer\u2019s job is to find incentives that can both stimulate the hygiene factors and the motivator factors by offering incentives that enhance both the employee\u2019s job satisfaction as well as their job performance. Hertzberg also states that the failure of enhancing job satisfaction as well as job performance can be traced back to the attempt of rewarding the avoidance need solely with a monetary reward. This means that a monetary reward can fulfill avoidance needs, things we want to avoid. One example of this is the avoidance of feeling mistreated at the work place when the rewards is unevenly spread which is one of the hygiene factors. Monetary reward can have a solid purpose, according to Herzberg, if it is used as a direct reward for individual performances in order to give recognition and praise good achievement which is seen as motivator needs. But monetary rewards have its limits and only work up to a certain point and after that other forms of rewards are needed.53 We can make an assumption based on this, that in order to be efficient the organization needs to have both monetary and- non-monetary rewards. A reward system is a combination of both monetary and non-monetary rewards. Reward systems can therefore be\nMaslow H. Abraham, (1954), pp. 149 Herzberg Frederick et al, (1959), \u201dMotivation to Work\u201d, Transaction Publishers, New Jersey, p. 113 51 Jones Lyndon, Page Denys, (1987) 52 Herzberg Frederick et al, (1959), pp.113 53 Herzberg Frederick et al, (1959), pp.116 50\nseen as a way for the managers and employers to satisfy the hygiene needs as well as the motivator needs and thereby can create efficiency. Critic to the use of Two Factor Theory The need theories by Herzberg were developed in the middle of the last century. We could therefore argue that the theories that Herzberg developed in 1959 are out of date and not applicable on modern organizations and their structure. This is due to the fact that there is more competition among the employees as well as a more developed view on employee empowerment in this century than before. These types of studies have been done under different circumstances regarding the employees as well as for the organizations as a whole. This raises the question if they still have any validity in modern research. There has been more recent and modern research done to test if Herzberg\u2019s two-factor theory still can be used when conducting motivations studies. One of them is the study done by Basset-Jones and Lloyd that showed the same result as Herzberg\u2019s studies. The difference the two studies mainly had was that Herzberg stated the importance on managerial recognitions were as Basset-Jones and Lloyd found that recognition is declining as a motivator in their study. They could, however, attach this to the declined promotion opportunities that were available in a flatter organization. Both researches did however find that non healthy supervisory relationship had a negative impact on the motivation. These findings also indicated that you could impact some people to move in a certain direction with the help of rewards but the main part of the employees needed other motivators. These motivators could consist of a possibility to overcome frustration as well as be a part of a contribution of the organizational success.54 Based on this we find that the theories by Hertzberg have a valid part in this study regardless of the time between its first development and today\u00b4s research. 3.2.2 Process theories In contrast to the content theories that primarily focused on the specifics within the human being, mainly their needs, that initiate or start the need the process theories regards how this takes place. The process theories try to explain how the employee decides what to do or to behave and how much effort he/she wants to contribute with.55 Goal-setting theory Locke is taking a process approach to motivational theories through his goal-setting theory just as the theory developed by Vroom. The main difference between the two is how the authors regard to the expectancy of a reward and the performance. Vroom sees a positive relation between expectancy and performance in a linear way. Locke on the other hand, even if he agrees with this assumption, also takes into consideration that the more difficult the goal is the more difficult it is to obtain it and thereby could potentially have a negative relation. Therefore he stresses the importance of making a separation between the expectation within and between goals conditions.56 In the goal-setting theory Locke is also stating that the theories developed by other authors were too focused in the unconscious in finding what motivates the individual. The goalsetting theory takes into deliberation the conscious motives that exist when the organization 54\nBasset-Jones Nigel and Lloyd C. Geoffrey, (2005), \u201cDoes Hertzberg\u2019s motivation theory have staying power?\u201d, Journal of Management Development, Volume 24, Issue 10, pp. 929-943 55 Segal Gerry, Borgia Dan, Schoenfeld Jerry, (2005) 56 Locke A. Edwin, Latham P. Gary, (2002), \u201cBuilding a Practically Useful Theory of Goal Setting - A 35-Year Odyssey\u201d, American Psychologist Vol. 57, No. 9, pp. 705-717\nsets goals that need to be met. These goals can create motivation for the employees if they are handled and developed in an accurate way. The basic assumption in goal-setting theories is, according to Locke, that the employee has been giving a task and is given feed-back on the progress. The progress is measured in relation to the goal of the task or the organization. The goals might be set by the organization but it can also be done on an individual level as well.57 The goal can be defined as the aim for an action and they can be both internally and externally explained. The internal goal is the end result or the notion that we strive to achieve. The external goal regards the object we want to obtain such as a job or a level of performance. \u201cThe idea guides the action to attain the object\u201d58. For the organization to maintain the highest level of performance the goal-setting theory means that the goal itself need to be both highly specific and at a high level of difficulty. In order to obtain the core benefits from this the organization has to make sure that there is enough amount of knowledge within the employees to achieve the goals. However organizations must take into consideration that the level of goal commitment with the employees also affects the outcome. This is especially critical if the goals are both difficult to achieve and specific. The employee that is set to obtain a goal and perform a task needs to feel that the goal itself is important.59 According to this theory a goal is necessary in order to create motivation within the employees to performer better than before. This can be done in several ways and using a reward system is one of them. Locke indicates that monetary rewards can improve the sustainability of a person\u2019s commitment as well as a person\u2019s performance. A monetary reward can thereby make the employee to repeat his/hers behavior. However, monetary rewards have no effect if the goals are set on a level that is impossible to obtain. To obtain the highest level of commitment from the employees the employer and the organization can as an alternative adjust the goals so that the goals fit the capacity of the employees. The employer can also provide training and raise the level of experience so that the employees meet the level of the goal. The last option that Locke raises is the ability to increase the level of self-perception within the employees so that the individuals feel that they have the ability to reach the goals. Locke means that a person or an employee does not necessarily have to be assured that the goal is obtainable as long as they feel that the personal effort is contributing to a positive outcome. This leads to the selfefficiency of the employee and how well the employees react to the feedback given or if the goal that are being set are accepted or not. 60 Self-efficiency Self-efficiency is the concept of the individual perceiving to be able to perform to his/her fullest. The level of self-efficiency will influence the level of motivation as well as the outcome of the performance. For the employers point of view there is a possibility to improve an employee\u2019s performance, the level of motivation and the choices the individual make through the improvement of the employees self perception.61 Feedback is an important part in the goal-setting theory since it gives the employees an understanding of how well they are performing. This will have an impact on how effectively the employees will perform the task needed to obtain the set goal. Without any feedback the employees will not try to improve their behavior or challenge them self into overcoming past performance. This will thereby lead to an inefficient output for the entire organization. Since the reward system has no 57\nLocke A. Edwin, (1996), \u201dMotivation through conscious goal setting\u201d, Applied and Preventive Psychology, Issue 5, pp.117-124 58 Ibid, p. 118 59 Ibid, pp. 117-124 60 Locke A. Edwin, (2004), \u201cLinking goals to monetary incentives\u201d, Academy of Management Executive, Vol. 18, Issue 4, pp. 130-133 61 Appelbaum H. Steven, Hare Alan, (1996)\npositive impact on the efficiency if the goals are impossible to reach the difficulty arises to balance the rewards so that it fits with the goals. There is a possibility that the reward connected to a certain task and outcome is overpowering other tasks that are just as important but not related to the goal itself.62 When linking the goal-setting theory to a reward system there is, according to Locke, four different methods to use for the employers. One is to extend the goals a little bit further than before and for those who achieve them there will be a substantial bonus. The downside to this method is that if the employees have laid down an extensive amount of work and still not been able to reach the goal, hence no reward will be distributed and that can lay down the ground for dissatisfaction. One way of avoiding this is to offering a reward system that does provide different levels of rewards linking to different levels of goals. Since even the lower levels of goals will provide a level of rewards, the motivation to strive higher to a higher goal might not occur. This is in some sense solved, even if it is not done entirely, by the third method. This method is imposing a linear reward system where there will be a substantial increase to the reward as the employee climb towards a higher goal. The fourth and last method links goal-setting to a reward system by motivating the employees with pay for performance. There will be specific task with a given goal and the employee will be receiving at reward based on how well the task has been executed. The level of the reward will thereby be set afterwards which gives the employer the ability to take the entire context of the execution into consideration when offering the reward. This however requires well trained managers who have the ability to make correct and fair decisions.63 Even if the theories proposed by Locke in most terms refer to a financial, foremost monetary, reward when linking goal-setting theory to the reward system, we will not make such a drastic distinction. For the sake of this study we will include the possibility that the rewards can constitute of non-monetary and non-financial rewards as well. Expectancy theory Having discussed what the employee can strive for and the ability for goal-setting to create motivation it give rise to a new question. What determines how much effort the employee actually will provide? Locke discusses the possibility that the workers will not strive to reach the highest goal that is related to the highest reward.64 Vroom has developed an insight and gives an explanation to this with his expectancy theory or VIE theory. The VIE theory discusses how much effort a person will contribute with and what performance this effort will result in base on how they value the outcome. The theoretical model consists of the valence, instrumentality and expectancy of the individual (VIE). The basic of the theoretical model is that the employee will only get motivated and hence try to reach a goal if they value the outcome. They must also find the performance needed as instrumental in reaching the outcome. This is explained as the employee\u2019s perception of the causal effect between their behavior and the reception of the reward. This will be obtained of the employee feels that they have the capability to perform in an accurate way that is instrumental to reach the goal.65 Valence is defined as the valuation of the actual outcome or the result of one\u2019s performance. The difference is made on the basis if the employee is indifferent or not to the outcome. If the result is not attractive to the employee the valance would be negative. A positive valance is created if the employee has any interest in attaining the outcome. The outcome that is relevant\nLocke A. Edwin, (1996) Locke A. Edwin, (2004) 64 Ibid 65 Lee Seongsin, (2007), \u201dVroom\u2019s expectancy theory and the public library customer motivation model\u201d, Library Review, Vol. 56 No. 9, pp. 788-796 63\nfor this study would consist of the type of reward that is being offered.66 Instrumentality consists of the individuals\u2019 thoughts of the probability that their performance would actually result in a particular outcome. For the employee a high instrumentality comes from the notion that if he/she shows off good work result there will be a sufficient reward. A low instrumentality would be of the employee feels that the result of the reward will not be dependent on this particular work result. As shown the opposite, high instrumentality, arise from that if the employee would receive the reward at all a good work-result is a necessity.67 Expectancy is the belief that there is a probability that they can perform in a way the leads to a positive result. For the employee the amount of effort he/she is willing to put in is influenced on the expectance of the outcome of the effort. If the employee works hard then he/she can expect a good work result hence a higher reward. The belief within the employee comes from the notion that he/she has the capacity and the skills needed to influence the outcome.68 This can be related to the term self-efficiency that Appelbaum69 and Locke discussed earlier regarding the employee\u2019s ability to perform to its fullest70. Thereby we can also see that regardless of the reward offered if the employee does not feel that they have the adequate skills needed to obtain the goal they will most likely not reach it. The employee might have a high valence towards the outcome but do not have the belief (expectancy) or the instrumentality needed to perform. 3.3 Problems and critics to reward systems A reward system can be used as a tool for creating motivation among the employee and enables the organization to increase the efficiency71. Our theoretical discussion so far has shown that when motivating the employees the managers must pay attention to what motivates through the needs of the employees. We have also shown that it is also vital to consider how motivation arises through imposing goal-setting and expectancy theories. Managers can use the reward system as a financial control tool in order to make sure that the employees are motivated to work towards the organizational goal. This however imposes a possible problem when the employer and the employee do not strive toward the same objective.72 Agency theory and reward system The agency theory shed light to the problem that can occur when the organizational goal does not align with the individuals\u2019 goal. The main theme in this theory is that a principal, the employer, assigns work to the agent, the employee, who thereby needs to perform the work. 73 The theory is focusing on two main problems that can occur between the agent and the principal and first there is the issue of conflicting goals. There is also the principal problem of verification of the agent\u2019s behavior and there is a need for monitoring the performance to avoid this problem.74 Outside the theoretical framework, in real life the principal has no direct 66\nVroom H. Victor, (1964), \u201cWork and Motivation\u201d, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. pp. 15-18 Lee Seongsin, (2007) 68 Vroom H. Victor, (1964), pp. 15-18 69 Appelbaum H. Steven, Hare Alan, (1996) 70 Locke A. Edwin, (1996) 71 Stajkovic D. Alexander, Luthans Fred, (2001) 72 Matsumura Ryohei, Kijima Kyoichi, Nakano Bumpei, Inohara Takehiro, (2001), \u201cDesign of an incentives system for application in a creative organization\u201d, Kybernetes, Vol 32, Issue 3, pp. 1313-1324 73 Yu Wai Tat Billy, Ming Wai To, (2008), \u201cEffects of Control Mechanisms on Positive Organizational Change\u201d, Journal of Organizational Management, Vol. 21, Issue 3, pp. 385-404 74 Eisenhardt M. Kathleen, (1989), \u201cAgency theory: An Assessment and Review\u201d, Academy of Management Review, Vol. 14, Issue 1, pp. 57-74 67\ncontrol over the behavior of the agent and there is no guarantee that the agent behave as the principal wants. In the agency theory this phenomenon is referred to as the moral hazard problem.75 There is also the problem with asymmetry in the risk taking between the agent and the principal. This is something that occurs when the principal and the agent\u2019s choice of action is not congruent due to different preference of levels of risk they are willing to take.76 The reward system is build upon the notion that it, when properly structured, can move the employee in a direction that is most preferable for the organization. This could be seen as the effect of the control system or the reward system.77 Matsumura et al. are proposing a new model to explain how the principal can use rewards to control the agent. They mean that the outcome of the agent\u2019s performance will be dependent on the size of the reward. This is due to the fact that when working towards the goal set by the employer or the principal the employee, the agent, will not only gain monetary rewards. The employee will also gain nonmonetary rewards from the work itself. If the employee\u2019s interest in performing the work is conflicting with the interest of the principal, the employee will gain a larger portion of nonmonetary reward by striving to fulfill is/her own goal instead of the principal\u2019s. It is due to the structure of the reward system that determines if the employee will gain more from fulfilling the goals of the organization than his/her own.78 With this in mind it becomes clear that the employers must create a reward system that minimizes the risk of a moral hazard problem with the employee. Why rewards at all? Even if many theories indicates the positive side of using incentives and rewards to motivate their employees to work towards the organizational goal there are, however, some who state the opposite. We found that the most prominent critic to the use of reward system is Alfie Kohn, who has the belief that a reward harms more than it do good79. The theme for the critics is not that they claim that a reward, and foremost financial rewards do not work they claim that they work too well. When offering money, the employee tends to only focus in the task related to the reward and since it is difficult to specify in detail what the organization wants it is also difficult to measure. The motivation within the employee is only focusing on performing what they are being told and nothing more. 80 Kohn means that the reward does have an effect on the behavior of the employees but the problem is that it is not for the long term. The change in the behavior the rewards create is only temporary and highly tied to the reward itself. When the reward ends the behavior ends as well. This is, according to Kohn, that the attitudes behind the previous behavior have not been affected by the reward and there is a need for commitment toward the behavior. Kohn also means that the reward do not generate an increase in the productivity hence do not increase the efficiency of the organization. He even states that those employees who were expecting a reward had a lower productivity than those who did not expect anything.81\nMatsumura Ryohei, Kijima Kyoichi, Nakano Bumpei, Inohara Takehiro, (2001) Eisenhardt M.

One reason as to why organizations have reward systems is to increase both effectiveness as well as efficiency. By motivating the employees to follow the goals of the organization it will increase the effectiveness and efficiency since all employees will strive for the same outcomes. Further it lies in the employer\u2019s interest to create such a reward system that will enable the employees to constantly improve the effectiveness and efficiency in the organization and be rewarded for their effort to reach the organizational goals.82 The literature in this section will be presented from an efficiency point of view. This type of view indicates that an organization can choose different steering instruments in order to reach their goals. The type of instrument the organization chooses will lead to different effects inside the organization. These effects will then enable the organization to reach their goals.83 The instrument that will be used in this study is reward systems and from an efficiency point of view it can be explained as follows; the goal of the organization is to increase the efficiency. This will be done by creating a reward system where the employees will be rewarded for achievements that will have a positive impact on the efficiency. The employees will be motivated to reach the goals of the organization and the organization will increase the efficiency based on the effects of a reward system. Based on the efficiency view a reward system can be divided into four dimensions; purpose with a reward system, the groundwork of a reward system, different types of rewards and finally the receiver of a reward system.84 Even though this model was developed for a previous study in order to see how the employees perceive a reward system we find if useful for our study as well. This since we find the four dimensions to be very basic and something that each employer should take into consideration when developing a reward system. However it should be noted that we will not include all different sub- dimension since some of them are not appropriate for our study. Therefore the model will be somewhat modified to be suitable for this particular study. We will now discuss each dimension separately. The purpose with a reward system There are several purposes of having a reward system and the most significant in this section is increased effectiveness and efficiency. In order to reach this purpose it is important that the organization creates a reward system where the employees and the organization strive towards the same direction.85 This can be done using the Goal Setting Theory. The organization has to know where they want to be in the future in order to know how to get there; i.e. means and ends. However it is not only organizational goals that exist within an organization, there are personal goals as well which every individual in the organization has set up for themselves. The organizational goals and the individual goals do not need to be the same but both need to be compatible and achievable. This can be done by informing the employees about the organizational goals and letting the employees be part in reaching these goals. This should be done in such a way that the employees can set up personal goals for themselves, which will lead to increased motivation to reach both the organizational goals as well as the personal 82\nAtkinson Anthony A., et al., (1997), p. 646 Johansson Sven- Erik, \u00d6stman Lars, (1992), \u201dL\u00f6nsamhetskrav- redovisningsm\u00e5tt- styrning.

It should be noted that if an individual does not identify with the company and its purpose, the individual will have difficulties in finding meaning with their work.86 In order for the organization to increase the effectiveness and efficiency the organization should foster a climate where the employees are encouraged to be goal oriented. A goal oriented person sees his/her role in the company very clearly and will be motivated by working towards organizational goals and at the same time put up personal goals for him/her self.87 Further, to create this type of organization with a high level of motivation should be a specific objective in itself in the organization since this is as important as any other goal of the organization. This objective will lead to increased efficiency since both personal and organizational goals will be achieved88. It might be assumed that the job satisfaction among the employees will increase since they feel that they will get personal development through achieving both personal and organizational goals. In order for the managers to create an effective organization there are six steps that should be taken into consideration which refers to aligning the individual goals with the organizational goals. First it is important that everyone within the organization is aware of the vision and mission of the organization i.e. what the purpose with the organization is. Second, the objectives of the organization should be broken down into different levels of sub goals so that they can be understood and achieved by lower level personal. Third, the objectives of the organization as well as the levels of sub goals are communicated to the right employees and divisions (the employees that will execute them). Fourth, the manager should help and encourage each employee to set up personal goals that can be achieved. Fifth, modify tentative organizational goals when necessary. And finally, continually remind everyone about the organizational goals in order to achieve them and constantly evaluate the organizational as well as the personal goals to make sure that there is a balance between the two.89 These six steps should be taken into consideration when the purpose with a reward system is to increase the effectiveness and efficiency within an organization. It shows the importance of involving the employees in such a way that they will feel part of the organization and that they are important for reaching the goals successfully. The relationship between the personal and the organizational goals can be seen in the figure on the next page. It is important to note that the reward system should be based on the organizational goals and reward the employees who contribute to reaching these goals. The vertical axis in the figure shows how the organizational objectives are linked with the results that the employees provide and the outcomes, which is what the organization gets. The horizontal axis shows the link between what the employees do, the result of their work, and the rewards that the employee gets for doing this. It is important that the rewards are valued by the employees and that the outcomes are valued by the organization, this way both parties will be satisfied with the situation.90\nHughes Charles L.

(1997),\u201dManagement accounting\u201d Prentice Hall International Editions, 2nd edition, p. 652\nWe have now discussed the purpose with a reward system and the two main factors that an organization needs to consider; first is to determine where the organization wants to be in the future and decide on a way to get there (how to make use of a reward system to reach the future goals). The second factor is to motivate the employees towards following the goals of the organization and at the same time achieving personal goals. However it is not enough to have a reward system, it needs to be thoroughly decided on what basis a reward should be given to the employees. This will be discussed in the following section. The groundwork of a reward system There are different types of groundwork for a reward system; that is on what basis an employee should get a reward. If an organization wishes to stimulate a specific behaviour that will lead to achievement of a specific goal then the organization should reward behaviours that contribute to reaching the goal. In this study we will mainly focus on financial and non financial measures as groundwork of when to reward an employee.91 It is not easy to decide on the basis for a reward system since there are a number of uncertainties that will affect the outcome of a job. An employee can put a lot of effort into a task but at the end, environmental changes might lead to that the outcome of the task will be affected in a negative way. These types of uncertainties have to be taken into consideration when creating a reward system. Due to these uncertainties companies often base their rewards on the input, for example working hours, skills and knowledge that are put into the job rather than on the outcomes. Even though the employees consider rewards based on input to be less\nArvidsson Per, (2005) p. 14\nmotivating compared to rewards based on the outcome, companies still use this model as a way to deal with different kinds of uncertainties.92 When it comes to financial measurements we will in this study only focus on pay for performance. This since studies have shown that it is a great motivation factor for employees and at the same time leads to improved performance93 which we consider will increase the effectiveness and efficiency within the organization. Pay for performance is often linked to a monetary rewards, and mostly bonuses94. Pay for performance can occur at three different levels within an organization, individual level, team level and organizational level and depending on which level pay for performance is used, it will take somewhat different forms95. At the individual level pay for performance can be measured on number of units performed, which will have an effect on the base pay, it can be variable pay, which will not influence base pay and that the employee has to work hard to receive again, this can for example be a cash bonus. It can also be measured on past performance and the employer will increase the employee\u2019s base pay. At the team level pay for performance is measured on the outcomes of the teams. At the organizational level the measurements will be on the overall performance of the organization and rewards will be distributed to all employees.96 When an organization decides to base their reward system on pay for performance it will increase not only the performance among the employees but it will also increase the overall performance of the organization. However there are a few aspects that the organization has to take into consideration when developing measurements for pay for performance. The first one is to decide on what performance is desirable for the organization in order to reach the organizational goals. This is a way for the organization to link the strategy with the reward system but also to make sure that the employees will be rewarded for the \u201cright\u201d performance. Further it is important for the organization to inform the employees about what performance is valued and will be rewarded. This will enable the employees to focus on the tasks that will be valued by the organization and not waste time on something that is not appreciated. Also it is crucial that the performance that will be rewarded is measurable so that the organization know when to reward and when not to. If such type of measures is not defined then the possibility for the employees to be rewarded correctly will decrease. Another important aspect that needs to be pointed out is the employees must have the skills; knowledge and competences to reach the desirable performance otherwise pay for performance as groundwork of a reward system will not be useful and will be de-motivating for the employees.97 A non financial groundwork for a reward system is not as common as a financial basis. Non financial measurements can for example be customer- and employee satisfaction and market shares. Even though these types of measurements are important for companies it is still the financial measurements that most often is the basis for a reward system.98 92\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 646-647 Durham Cathy C., Bartol Kathryn M., (2000), \u201dPay for performance\u201d, Part of \u201cBlackwell Handbook of Principles of Organizational Behaviour\u201d, p 150 94 Ibid, p. 150 95 Ibid, p. 150 96 Ibid, pp. 150-152 97 Durham Cathy C., Bartol Kathryn M., (2000), pp. 153-155 98 Arvidsson Per, (2005) p. 19 93\nAs have been showed in this section there are different bases for a reward system. Important is that they can be both financial as well as non financial and that that the employees are well aware about the groundwork of the reward system so that all will have the same chances to receive a reward. By having a solid ground for the reward system where all different aspects of it have been taken into account, we believe that the reward system will be more organized and become more effective. Different types of rewards The third step when creating an effective reward system is to decide what types of rewards that will be offered to the employees in the organization. In this thesis we will focus on monetary, non monetary and non financial rewards, but we will also discuss the concept of intrinsic and extrinsic rewards. As have been mentioned above the first step in creating an effective reward system is to decide what they want to accomplish with the system and linked to this is on what basis a reward should be handed out. When this is done the organization can start consider what types of reward that will be offered to the employees. It is highly important that the organization realizes that they have to offer rewards that the employees value 99. If this is not taken into account then the reward might have a negative impact on the receiver and the motivation to reach the organizational goals might decrease. Therefore the organization should find out what motivates the employees and also recognize that people in different stages of their life are motivated by different things.100 A decision whether to offer monetary and/or non monetary rewards have to be made. The most common monetary reward is cash bonuses (note that we are not referring to base salary) but there are obviously additional financial rewards as well, for example gain sharing, and stock related rewards and profit sharing. A monetary reward can be handed out when someone has done an excellent job or when the organization has improved the results. The monetary rewards can be given to both individuals and teams and they can be based on individual as well as team performance.101 However monetary rewards do not always have a positive effect on motivation. If there is no link between the reward and the accomplishments of an employee the reward will not have an impact on the motivation. If everyone is getting the same monetary reward regardless of their performance or effort then the reward will not have an impact on the motivation. On the other hand if monetary rewards are linked to the individual and his/her accomplishments then money can be a strong motivator.102 Non financial rewards are rewards that do not cost the organization anything. Today the most significant non financial rewards are connected to the employment contract and to the relationship between the employee and the employer. The study by Manas and Graham indicates that money is no longer the number one motivation factor among employees. They mean that today employees are more interested in opportunities and thereby to develop their skills and knowledge. If an organization is not able to successfully provide opportunities for their employees they will end up with a situation of employee retention.103\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), p. 651 Hughes Charles L., (1965), p. 54 101 Atkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 663- 667 102 Hughes Charles L., (1965), pp. 55, 81 103 Manas Todd M., Graham Michael Dennis, (2003), \u201cCreating a total reward strategy\u201d, American Management Association, Ebrary Inc., pp. 3-4 100\nNon financial rewards can be divided into three categories. The first one is affiliation, which refers to the overall value that working in an organization for a longer period of time will bring. This includes everything from job satisfaction to the thrill of working for the number one company on the market. The second category is quality of work and life and this is about the employee and its ability to grow both personally as well as professionally. This is done by having a job that provides the employee with challenges in such a way that the employee will improve their skills and knowledge. The third category is training and development and is focusing on the employees, training them for both current jobs and for future jobs.104 However, we would like to consider training and development as a financial reward but not a monetary reward in this study. This since, education of the employees might be linked to a cost for the organization even if it does not generate any money for the employee. This is one way to organize non financial rewards by having the employee in the centre. We strongly believe that this kind of categorization will give the organization a sufficient overview about how non financial rewards can be used. Therefore we claim that it will lead to a good groundwork when discussing non financial reward as part of a reward system. Further there are two additional forms of a reward system and that is intrinsic and extrinsic rewards. As have been discussed earlier in this study, intrinsic reward is something that comes from inside the individual and refers to how the individual relates to the job and the organizational environment. Experts point out that intrinsic rewards have higher motivational effects than extrinsic rewards among employees and therefore it is crucial for the organization to keep this in mind and try to create such a working environment that will enable the employees to gain intrinsic rewards. Extrinsic rewards on the other hand can be linked to both financial and non financial rewards and is therefore something that the organization can control.105 It is important for organizations to keep both of these additional reward systems in mind in order to create an optimal reward system. Even though intrinsic rewards are linked to the individual employee, the organization can still try to foster intrinsic rewards by creating a working environment and job assignments that the employees value and appreciate. Intrinsic rewards are most likely to occur when employees have the authority to make decisions regarding the organization and when these decisions are done based on the employees\u2019 skills, knowledge and competence. This will motivate the employees to act in the best interest for the organization.106 Extrinsic rewards on the other hand are important to include in the reward system when rewarding a team for the first time, this will increase the individuals\u2019 interest to collaborate.107 A previous study stated that the most significant motivation factor for employees is the interest in the job itself108. We consider this to be an intrinsic reward and it also shows the importance for managers to recognize this and motivate them from an intrinsic aspect. Further the study also points out that motivation is important for the productivity and again we see that motivated employees will lead to a more effective and efficient organization109 but if intrinsic motivated employees will have a higher impact on the effectiveness and efficiency than extrinsic motivated people is not defined. Even though studies have pointed out that intrinsic motivation is more sufficient than extrinsic110, there are\nManas Todd M., Graham Michael Dennis, (2003), p. 5 Atkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 652- 653 106 Ibid p. 658 107 Singer Marcos, Donoso Patricio, Rodriguez-Sickert Carlos, (2008), \u201dA static model of cooperation for groupbased incentive plans\u201d, International Journal of Production Economics, volume 115, issue 2, p. 500 108 Sj\u00f6berg.

Further there are studies that claim that both intrinsic as well as extrinsic rewards are needed in an organization. Often extrinsic rewards will have a negative effect on the intrinsic work motivation since it might be \u201cpushed aside\u201d and therefore it is crucial that organizations try to manage these factors in such a way that favours both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and rewards.112 The receiver of a reward system The final step in the efficiency model is to determine the receiver of the reward. In this study we will focus on teams and on individuals. We will not include top management as a separate category since we in this study will be focusing on how to motivate the employees and not the top management team as such. However we are aware that some studies include the top management team since they might be part of a different reward system113 but since we are not aiming to study the differences between different reward systems in one organization we will exclude that from our study. Rewarding teams can be very important in some organizations, especially if team work is frequently occurring. However not all companies see the value in rewarding teams which will have a negative impact on the outcomes of the teams. When an organization is rewarding teams it communicates to the employees that the team work and the outcomes are highly valued and appreciated by the organization. This is a way to encourage the teams to continue to deliver high-quality outcomes.114 The outcomes of, say a project, is often performed by a team, which makes it difficult to reward one single person for that particular outcome. Due to this many organizations have started to reward teams instead of individuals. However, by moving towards team rewards rather than individual rewards will not be free from problems. When rewarding a team it is assumed that every member of that team has made an effort and worked hard in order to reach the goals. But so is not always the case. There are situations where free riding is a problem. In situations like that the whole group will get a reward even the person that has not contributed to the outcomes. This might create problems within the team since everyone is getting acknowledged for their work even when some of them have not contributed to the outcomes.115 Obviously team rewards include a lot of positive aspects as well. It motivates the employees to work together and be more innovative regarding problem solving. The employees will be encouraged to \u201cthink outside the box\u201d and be rewarded for their effort in finding new solutions for different types of problems.116 Another reason for rewarding teams is the idea that a team will perform significantly better than a single individual. It can also be described as the sum of two individuals (1+1) is not two but three. This is referred to as the synergy effect. However it is not enough for the organization to put different teams together and expect them to provide the organization with top results, it is just as important for the team to learn how to collaborate. It is when every individual within a team has gotten to know 111\nFrey Bruno S, (1997), p. 9 Frey Bruno S, (1997), p. 2 113 Arvidsson Per, (2005), p. 14 114 Hoffman Jody R., Gogelberg Steven G., (1998), \u201cA guide to team incentive systems\u201d, Team performance management, volume 4, number 1, Passim 115 Atkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), p. 647 116 Kaplan Robert S., Norton David P., (2001),\u201dThe strategy focused organization- how balanced scorecard companies thrive in the new business environment\u201d, Harvard Business School Publishing Corporation, p. 268 112\neach other, the skills and abilities that the team can start to produce high standard outcomes.117 If an organization has decided to reward teams instead of individuals there are two factors that have to be considered. The first one is interdependence within the team as well as with other teams. If the interdependence is high between both, then it is important for the organization to be careful with how they reward the teams. For example, if there is a high interdependence between a number of teams but only one of the teams will be rewarded for the outcomes then it will have a negative impact on the future team work, since the reward is considered to be handed out on unfair basis. The second factor is the frequency of team work within an organization, that is how often the employees are working in teams; constantly or sporadically. If they are working in a team full- time then team rewards might be suitable and if team work is occurring more sporadically then individual rewards might be preferable.118 Recent studies have shown that when an organization is deciding to reward either individuals or teams the degree of trust within the team needs to be taken into consideration. If there is low trust between the members of a group, that is the degree of getting to know and trust the other members\u2019 competences and skills are low, then individual rewards are more suitable. This because the individual will get rewarded based on own performance and does not have to rely on other group members to get a reward, especially when the team dynamic is not optimal.119 Further, in some jobs individual rewards will be preferable rather than team rewards. This could for example be personal selling or new innovative products. Here individual rewards are more suitable and it is important that the rewards will motivate the individual to deliver successful outcomes.120 However a previous study showed that when the organizational goal is to increase the motivation factor regarding problem solving among the employees, the use of both individual rewards and team rewards are not effective. In fact when striving for problem solving in teams the use of individual rewards that are based on individual performance do not work in favour for the team based problem solving. This, since the individuals in the team are more interested in their personal rewards than delivering sufficient outcomes with the team. Other researches do not support this and states that the most effective is to combine both individual reward systems and team reward systems.121 With this we would like to point out that when creating a reward system it is important for the organization to discuss what they want to accomplish with the reward system. By doing that it will be easier to decide if they should have individual rewards, team rewards or both. 3.5 Summary of the Theoretical Framework So far in the theoretical framework we have presented theories regarding motivation, both content- and process theories. We have also discussed theories regarding what to consider when making use of a reward system in order to reach organizational goals and at the same time increase the effectiveness and efficiency within the organization. We will now link the motivation theories, which consist of content- and process theories, with the effective and\nDimmlich Robert Park, (1999), \u201cHuman Resource \u2013 Om samspelet mellan individ, grupp och organisation\u201d, Dimmlich Management, p. 32 118 Hoffman Jody R., Gogelberg Steven G., (1998), Passim 119 Merriman Kimberly, (2008), \u201cLow- trust teams prefer individualized pay\u201d, Harvard Business Review, volume 86, issue 11, p. 32 120 Kaplan Robert S., Norton David P., (2001), p. 268 121 Kerrin M\u00e1ire, Oliver Nick, (2002), \u201dCollective and individual improvement activities: the role of reward systems\u201d, Personnel Review, volume 31, number 3, Passim.\nefficiency theory, and try to explain how we consider them to influence each other. This can be seen in the figure below.\nPURPOSE WITH A REWARD SYSTEM\nTHE GROUNDWORK OF A REWARD SYSTEM\nTHE RECEIVER OF A REWARD SYSTEM\nFigure 3:2 Linking motivation to effectiveness and efficiency (The figure is our own modification based on the original. Source: Arvidsson Per (2005) \u201dStyrning med bel\u00f6ningssystem. Tv\u00e5 fallstudier om effekter av bel\u00f6ningssystem som styrmedel\u201d Handelsh\u00f6gskolan i Stockholm, EFI, Ekonomiska Forskningsinstitutet.)\nAs the figure 3:2 shows, we think of motivation as the central aspect in our theoretical framework and it is something that the employers constantly need to have in mind when developing a reward system. In this figure motivation consists of the content theories and the process theories. The figure also shows that motivation will affect the four aspects of creating and developing a reward system. When an organization has decided to include a reward system the first decision is what the purpose with it will be. Will it be used as a steering instrument or are there other purposes with it? Whatever the purpose with it might be, the organization has to figure out what role the employees will have in it. This leads us to the next step which is the groundwork of a reward system. It is important that the groundwork of it, that is on what basis a reward should be handed out is well established. This is done in order for the employees to consider the reward system as fair but also so that they can see their place in the organization. It also means that they know that if I put this much effort into this task then I will get a reward, which is the one of the basis in the expectancy theory. Another part of the groundwork is that the organization has clear goals so that they know where they want to be in the future. These goals have to be broken down to smaller goals so that they are possible for the employees to reach, since the groundwork of a reward system so often is linked to reaching different sub goals. By giving the employees the opportunity to reach the goals it will lead to increased motivation among the employees and hence the effectiveness and efficiency will increase within the company when the employees will know what is expected from them. The third step when creating a reward system is to decide what types of rewards the organization should offer to the employees. It is highly important to offer the employees\u2019 rewards that they value otherwise the reward system will not have an impact on the motivation. An organization can chose to have monetary and non monetary rewards, all 25\ndepending on the resources and wishes from the employees. It is important for the organization to realize that people are motivated by different things and that they have different needs that have to be satisfied. It is also crucial that the effort that the employee puts into a task corresponds with the reward that he/she will receive, this in order to increase the motivation. The last step in developing a reward system is the decision whether to reward teams and/or individuals. Here it is important to consider whether the organization will encourage team work or individual work and base the receiver of a reward system on that. Another aspect to take into consideration is motivation; will the employees be more motivated to work in teams or individually? Either way, the important aspects is that the system is fair otherwise will the motivation decrease and the so will also the effectiveness and efficiency. In order to create a reward system, which will increase the effectiveness and efficiency within the organization, all four steps of that theory must be thoroughly developed. However, this is not enough, it is just as important to take the content- and process theories into consideration in order to get the most sufficient result of a reward system. Further, it is important that the organization keeps in mind that even though a reward system is a steering instrument, it is still the employees that are going to perform the tasks and activities. Based on the discussion here we have tried to explain how we consider the motivation theories and the effectiveness and efficiency theories relate and how they are influencing each other.\n4 Empirical approach for the study In this chapter we will discuss the choices we have made regarding practical method and how these choices will affect our study. We will also describe how the interview questions are linked to the theoretical framework in order for the reader to later on see the connection between the theoretical framework and he empirical results. The choices have been made based on our research question with the purpose to get the most sufficient material for our empirical results, which will be presented later on in this study. 4.1 Choice of method This study follows a deductive research approach, which means that based on our theoretical framework we will collect information needed in order to see if the reality is in accordance with the theories. The information will be analyzed by comparing the empirical findings with the theories we have chosen for this study.122 In order to answer our research question we considered a qualitative method to be the most useful in gathering information. This since a survey would not have given us the opportunity to see different nuances between the respondents. By conducting a qualitative research we could get unique information that would not have been possible by sending out a survey. A qualitative research gives the advantage to see the unique in every situation and to create a \u201cme- you\u201d feeling between the respondent and us as authors123. This will lead to that we could get a deeper understanding for each situation, something that would have not been possible with at quantitative method124. Further we have chosen to do deep interviews and to be prepared for each interview we have developed an interview guide. Deep interviews were chosen in order to get the most out of each interview. An interview guide is a list of all the different topics that needs to be discussed during the interview125. This list is a way for the interviewers to make sure that no topic is forgotten. Further an interview guide allows the respondents to talk very openly and freely about each question and the interviewers can ask follow up questions during the interview if something is not clear and needs to be specified.126 The interviewers do not need to follow the interview guide in the exact same way for each interview, nor do all questions need to be asked in the same order. As said before, the guide is a tool for the interviewers to make sure that all subjects are discussed that are important for the study.127 4.2 Choice of respondents We have decided to do two interviews in three different sectors. This choice was made since part of the purpose with this study is to study the reward system in different sectors in order to see if there are any similarities and/or differences between them. We chose three different sectors since we thought it would give the study a better comparison than if we had just two sectors. The sectors we have chosen are the service-, production-, and construction sector. These sectors were chosen based on a convenience sample; that is the sectors that were available for us at the time when the study was conducted128 and where there were companies 122\nBryman Alan, Bell Emma, (2005), p. 23 Holme Idar Magne, Solvang Bernt Krohn, (1997), \u201dForskningsmetodik \u2013 Om kvalitativa och kvantitativa metoder\u201d Studentlitteratur, 2ed, p. 78 124 Ibid, p. 78 125 Patton Michael Quinn, (1987) ,\u201dHow to use qualitative methods in evaluation\u201d , SAGE Publications, p. 111 126 Ibid, p. 111 127 Holme Idar Magne, Solvang Bernt Krohn, (1997), pp. 100-101 128 Bryman Alan, Bell Emma, (2005), pp. 124-125 123\nthat were either middle sized or large sized. Other sectors exist but the number of respondents located in Ume\u00e5 that would meet this study\u2019s requirements was not sufficient enough. This could have an effect on the end result since other sectors might use a reward system in a completely different way. However, we found that the sectors that we had access to, gave us sufficient material for this study. The choice of only including middle and large sized companies was made since we believe that the possibility of these companies having a reward system, that is part of their strategy on how to reach organizational goals, are higher than within small sized companies. It should be pointed out that with middle sized companies we refer to companies that have between 50250 employees and large sized companies that have more than 250 employees. 129 The companies also had to be located on other places than just Ume\u00e5; they had to be national companies. This choice was made on the basis that a national company in Ume\u00e5 would consist of an amount of employees that our study required. We also assume that a national organization has a higher probability to have a more deliberate reward system. Further, we have decided to do two interviews within every sector, this since we considered one interview not to be sufficient enough to provide useful information. Another reason for this choice was the possibility to transfer the results to some extent, which we did not feel we could do if only one interview within every sector had been made. The choice of respondents within every sector was again made based on a convenience sample. We discussed potential participants within each sector that were either middle- or large sized companies and that were located in Ume\u00e5. Further, we wanted a high variation between the companies in the sectors in order to see the differences and similarities more easily between the sectors. When we had decided on a number of companies that we considered to be appropriated for our study we started to call them one by one, until we got the number of respondents that we were aiming for. 4.2.1 Access and non-completion It was not difficult to get respondents for this study. After we had decided on a number of companies that were suitable for our study we called them one by one. If we were not able to find a telephone number to the chief of staff, whom we wanted to interview, we called the reception and asked them for help. Only one person said that they do not want to participate in this study and that was from the construction sector. Further at two companies the person that is working with these types of issues was on vacation and therefore we were not able to include them in our study. One of the companies is in the production sector and the other one in the service sector. Moving on to access, we did not find it difficult to get the respondents to talk openly about their reward system. Everyone gave us good material that we could build our empirical findings on. However the way that the respondents answered our questions varied. Some of them seemed to have difficulties with just answering the question and not talk about related issues, while some where answering our questions very quickly and where using all the right terms. When reading the empirical part it might be noted by the reader that the empirical length of each respondent varies. This is because, as mentioned above, some of the respondents were answering very quickly and were using the same terms that we have in our thesis. This made it easy for us to transfer the transcriptions to empirical format and therefore 129\nhttp://europa.eu/scadplus/glossary/sme_sv.htm\n2009-02-09 time 10:18\nsome of the respondents have a shorter empirical part. An example of this is NCC. Then there are other respondents, like Norrmejerier for example, that sometimes had difficulties to keep to the subject and was often talking about related issues or giving us examples. When doing this she gave us indirect information that we thought were useful for the study and therefore the empirical part for Norrmejerier, just as an example, became quite long, at least in comparison to NCC. 4.3 The Interview Guide Our interview guide, appendix 1, is based on our theoretical framework and follows the same structure as the theoretical framework does. The purpose with the first two questions is to establish the respondent\u2019s position in the company as well as the experience he/she has within this field. Question three to six is to get an idea how the different respondents define a salary system and a reward system and what part they play in the organization. We included a question about the salary system since many respondents thought, when we called them that we were going to do a study about that even though we used the phrase reward system. Also we considered it to be a possibility that companies see their salary system as a reward system and something that motivates the employees and therefore we decided to include this question in the interview guide. The following questions in the interview guide follow the same structure as the theoretical framework, and therefore we will not further discuss how they relate to the theories. 4.3.1 Description of the interview We conducted six interviews within nine days. All interviews were located at the respondents office here in Ume\u00e5. One respondent, from the production sector, wanted to see the interview guide before the interview so she received them by email. Before we started the interview we gave all respondents the opportunity to be anonymous. We also asked them if we could record the interview, which everyone agreed on. Further we asked the respondents if they could take the time to read through our transcriptions in order to avoid misunderstandings and misinterpretations. Again, all of the respondents agreed to this and the transcriptions were sent to them by email. However one company from the construction sector chose not to read through the transcriptions, she sent us an email where she claimed that she had not time to do that and therefore she wanted to be anonymous. A summary of the interviews can be found in appendix 2. The first interview was with NCC, a construction company, and the respondent was Sverker \u00d6rmin, chief of staff for the region Norrland. The interview took 25 minutes and he was very professional, and we noticed early on that he knew what he was talking about and he understood our questions as well as the purpose with the study. He was quite serious during the whole interview, and it would be false to say that the atmosphere was relaxed. The second interview was also with a construction company, which we will refer to CC1 since they requested to be anonymous. The respondent was the personnel officer / personnel developer in Ume\u00e5. Her main responsibility was towards the blue collar workers within the company. The interview took 25 minutes and it seemed that she did not really understand the purpose with a reward system, neither the overall purpose with it or why CC1 has it. However the atmosphere was relaxed and there was a lot of laughter during the interview.\nThe following interview was with a production company and they requested to be anonymous in the study and will therefore be referred to as PC1. The respondent\u2019s position at the company is Human Resource officer. The interview took 22 minutes and she was very professional and answered our questions very quickly. It showed that she had been working with these types of issues for a long time. The atmosphere was relaxed and she thought it would be interesting to participate in this study. The fourth interview was with a company from the service sector and she wanted both the company as well as herself to be anonymous. The company will be referred to as SC1. The respondent\u2019s position at the company is HR coordinator. The duration of the interview was 23 minutes and the respondent was very relaxed. She answered our question very thoroughly and it showed that she took time in trying to give us good and sufficient answers. During the interview both the respondent and we (authors) were laughing a lot and the atmosphere was very comfortable. Our fifth interview was with Bravida, a company in the service sector. Our respondent is Hans- \u00c5ke Lampa, head of department of the power division. The interview took 34 minutes and the atmosphere was very relaxed but also very professional. The respondent talked very openly and freely when he answered our questions. The last interview was with Norrmejerier, a production company. Our respondent is Sinikka Lindquist and her position is Chief of Staff at the company. The atmosphere was very relaxed and there were lots of laughter. She talked very openly when she answered our questions but in some cases it seemed like she did not really understand the questions, so we had to re-ask them in such a way that she would understand what we meant by them. This was the longest interview and the length was 49 minutes. In the empirical part we have summarized the transcriptions and were trying to only include information that was relevant for our study. We have also included quotations in the empirical part in order to give more life to that chapter. There is at least one quotation for every respondent and they are based on the answers of the respondent and whether he/she said something that we considered to be salience. We also chose to include quotations since it gives a good idea about where the respondents stand in different issues and how the company is dealing with those issues. 4.3.2 Trustworthiness and authenticity Credibility and transferability When conducting a qualitative research, like this one, the terms of trustworthiness and authenticity are used as measures of quality of the study.130 As part of the term trustworthiness we need to discuss credibility and transferability that can be linked to validity of a study. When saying that a study has a high credibility it means that the researcher has interpreted that information in a correct way.131 By letting our respondents take part of the transcript we have enhanced the credibility of this study. It also shows the degree of misunderstandings and misinterpretation is very low. However, we must argue that a higher level of credibility could have been gained if the respondent were given access to the final empirical material as well. This choice of not letting the respondents take part of the final 130 131\nBryman Alan, Bell Emma, (2005), pp. 305-306 Ibid, p. 307\ncompilation was made since the transcripts could be sent back the next day when the respondent still had his/her answers fresh in memory. The interview guide could be used again in the same context, either in the same sectors or in different sectors. However it should be pointed out that if this study were to be done again by different researchers, the same theories also need to be used otherwise will the interview guide not be accurate. By describing the steps made in this study in a profound way is also a step to ensure that the level of trustworthiness is kept at a high level. Ttransferability in a study means if the knowledge is applicable on other settings as well 132. For this study it means if the information can be use on other sectors and other companies. Transferability also means that the knowledge that one will receive from reading this thesis will be useful for understanding different situations and contexts that are part of the reality of the individual133. We consider our findings to be transferable to some extent since especially in situations where both our respondents within one sector have given similar answers or when all companies in all sectors have responded in the same way. However we do realize that the small number of respondents in each sector will make it difficult to transfer the findings and the possibility to do so will be higher in Sweden than it will be in other countries, even though most of our respondent companies are operating internationally. Dependability and Confirmability It is common when doing a quantitative research that the term reliability is discussed when arguing for how reliable a study is. For a qualitative study this is discussed in terms of dependability and confirmability. With dependability it means that the researcher make sure that the process of the study is audited by others and that the process of the study is made available.134 To ensure that this study maintain a high level of dependability we have had regular meetings with our tutor who has had the opportunity to correct us. We have also presented our preconceptions and how this could impact the result as well as the process of the study. When conduction the interviews we use a recording mechanisms that let us save the data on a computer, it also lead us to re-listen to the interview when needed. These procedures strengthen the level of dependability of this study but we are aware of that it is far from complete. Confirmability in a study regards the level of objectivity the researcher has and that the result shows that the researcher has left out his/her bias. It also means that the researcher made it possible for others to confirm the results.135 One way of doing this would have been to let other take part of the transcripts to make sure that we as researchers have interpret them correctly. In this study the transcripts have only been read by the respondents. We can therefore not say that this study has a high level of confirmability. One way of enhancing this would have been to include the transcripts to the appendix. We have chosen not to include them due to the fact that they are done in Swedish and that it might lead to further language misinterpretations. Authenticity In this study we will discuss the term authenticity from the viewpoint that our study gives a correct picture of the viewpoints that exists within the respondent group. In other words it means that the respondents have to be representatives for the group of people that are being studied.136 The respondents were all working with personnel issues and they had similar 132\nJohansson Lindfors Maj-Britt, (1993), \u201dAtt utveckla kunskap, \u201d Studentlitteratur Lund, p. 170 Johansson Lindfors Maj-Britt, (1993), p. 170 134 Bryman Alan, Bell Emma, (2005), p. 306 135 Bryman Alan, Bell Emma, (2005), p.307 136 Ibid, p. 309 133\nposition within their companies. Based on this we can say that the respondents can be seen as good representatives for this study. They also seemed to answer our questions as thoroughly as they could. However it should be pointed out that since only one company had the head quarter in Ume\u00e5 it might be possible that someone at the head quarter would have been able to answer our questions more accurately. We still felt that we would get the most sufficient results by interviewing our respondents in face to face meetings. This since it would be easier for us to interpret the interview situation and read the respondent. Since we have chosen to undertake a hermeneutic approach we thought that the most appropriate would be face to face meetings in order to be able to interpret the respondents\u2019 situation. Thus we were trying to get in touch with the most suitable respondent that was located in Ume\u00e5. 4.4 Criticism of the Practical Method First we would like to point out that neither of us authors are used to conducting interviews, which slightly might influence the information we have received during the interviews. It is possible that we have not always known were to stop the respondent if he/she is not focusing on the subject. This means that we have also gotten information that is not useful for our study however this is something that we have noticed and have excluded from the empirical part. On the other side our lack of knowledge might have lead us to miss information as well. In order to avoid this we use semi-structured interviews in order to be able to ask follow up questions. Another aspect that needs to be highlighted is the fact that the interviews were conducted in Swedish and so were also the transcriptions. This means that for the empirical part in this study we have translated the information from the interviews into English. We have aimed to do this as correctly as possible but still we are aware that when translating there might be some misinterpretations between the two languages. However, we felt that it was better to do the interviews in Swedish since we did not know the respondents\u2019 skills in English and based on this we did not want to take the chance to get insufficient information due to language barriers. Another action that we took to avoid misinterpretations was to let all respondents have access to the final transcripts. Since not all of the respondents took the time to read them through there is still some possibility that we have interpret some information wrong. We did some changes due to corrections from the respondents and we feel that this enhanced the accuracy of the gathered material. Since one of the respondents asked for, and received, the question in beforehand this could have an effect on the answers that were given. When given the opportunity to read the questions before the interview the respondent was given time to think the answers through. This could potentially make the answers more accurate but it also gave the respondent time to leave out information. Since this was one of the last respondents to be interviewed the possibility to let all respondent take part of the question in beforehand was not made. However, the answers of the respondent that had the opportunity to read the question before the interview did not differ in any particular way from the others. We can therefore make the conclusion that this did not affect her answers in any way that could harm this study.\n5 Empirical part We will now present the empirical findings that we have retrieved from our interviews. The information will be presented company by company by starting with the construction sector and then moving on to the production sector and finally the information from the service sector will be presented. 5.1 Construction Sector \u2013 NCC 5.1.1 The company and the respondent Background information NCC is the largest construction company in the Nordic region where they also have their main market. NCC consists of three divisions; construction, roads and housing. NCC has 1800 employees, 450 white collar workers and 1350 blue collar workers. The respondent is Sverker \u00d6rmin, Chief of Staff for the region Norrland and he has been working for NCC since 1999. Reward and reward system NCC has two different salary systems, one for blue collar workers and one for white collar workers. Blue collar workers are following the collective agreements, which means that they get paid per hour but they also have piece work contract which will vary based on the duration of the project. White collar workers on the other hand have an individual salary system. When it comes to the reward system NCC is part of a central reward system. The reward system consists of a fixed part, which is the salary and on a floating part. The floating part can take two forms; the first one is based on the annual salary multiplied with a percentage. To take part of this type the employee has certain accomplishments that have to be fulfilled, which is linked to the goals of the organization, but it is also liked to the result of the organization as whole. The second type is a bonus system, which is based on the position of the employee. The higher position in the organization the employees has the larger part of the salary can be floating. Some positions provide a floating part of as high as 50 percent. Connected to this second type is profitability, both for the own division but also for the organization as whole, the goals of the organization and accomplishments that the employee has to fulfil during the year. It is the group executive committee that decides the type of reward system and how it should be used within NCC. This will then be communicated throughout the organization. 5.1.2 Motivation Needs NCC is working very actively in order to become an attractive employer. One important aspect is that the salary should be above average for that industry. They are also focusing on giving the employees the possibility to improve their skills and knowledge, they offer additional parent allowance so that the employees have the possibility to stay home with their children, they offer insurance to the employees, they have own healthcare within NCC and so on. It is also important for NCC to have good relationships with different Universities and show what NCC stands for. They are also part of different program committees at Universities, mainly within construction and engineering. Further each year the employees at NCC take part of an intern survey where they give their personal opinion to what degree they consider they have the ability to impact their own work. NCC considers communication at the 33\nwork place to be the groundwork for this, to have a work place where each employee is allowed to speak their mind and opinion. NCC is also trying to include every employee within a project to be part of the planning phase, where everyone can be part of the project from the beginning. NCC is constantly working towards improving this, and to let the employees have good possibilities to have an impact on their work. In order to improve the job satisfaction at NCC there are meetings at different work places so that the employees included in a project can discuss together what they want to do with the project, and what can be done in order to increase the job satisfaction. NCC also encourages team building before a project starts in order for the employees within a project get to know each other. One example is that one team decided to start curling one night a week and now five years later they are still getting together for curling. Goals and expectations NCC has both financial goals, to decrease the production costs by 5 % each year, and goals for the employees, to become the most attractive employer in Sweden. The goals are broken down into smaller goals for each division which are communicated to every work place. NCC considers it to be very important that the goals that are communicated to the different work places are very concrete so that each employee can understand them. This will also lead to that the goals are measurable, which is important. One example of this is a goal that NCC had a while ago. The goal was to increase the development discussions with the blue collar worker and this was something that was very easy to measure. In order for the employees to work towards a specific goal a crucial factor is that the communication is working. Everyone should be aware of the goal so that they know what they are working towards. Another important factor is that, again, is measurable. An example for this is to have a certain number of meetings at a work place and this will be easy to measure if the chief at that work place will keep records of this. When it comes to the frequency of feedback, the type of goals will be of importance. If it is financial goals then it is easy to give feedback continuously since it will be easy to see how things are developing. Some managers will get feedback four or five times per year if they are dealing with reaching financial goals. However, giving feedback is not something that NCC is generally good at. Every employee at NCC has the possibility to advance in the company hierarchy, and this is a way for NCC to keep the individual goals of the employees in mind. 5.1.3 Effectiveness and Efficiency The purpose with a reward system NCC has included a reward system in the organization since they consider it to be a steering instrument that will help reaching the goals of the organization. However our respondent was not convinced that a reward system has the effect that the group of executive committee thinks it has; \u201cI do not know if I believe that a reward system has that great effect as it asserts\u201d It also needs to be pointed out that a reward system does not always lead to positive outcomes. There might be problems where the individual is only keen in getting the personal reward instead of working in the best interest of the company. 34\nThe groundwork of a reward system The rewards at NCC are based on economic measurements, the result of the company. The organizational goals also have a significant role since they need to be achieved in order for NCC to increase their profitability in the end. Further, the decision regarding when to give a reward is made by the region manager and/or by the Chief of Staff of the region, this is the lowest level in the company that these types of decisions can be made. However if a manager at a specific work place wants to give something to the team if they have done a outstanding job for example then he/she is of course allowed to do so. He/she could for example take the team out for pizza or something similar. Types of rewards NCC has mainly monetary rewards like individual salary systems, additional parent allowance, and insurance. The bonuses can either be paid to the salary account or it can be transferred into pension funds. The employees also have the opportunity to buy houses or apartments that NCC owns, they have access to cabins at different ski resorts, they get gym cards to a cheaper price and they get lunches to a better price. NCC also has flexible working hours which is a non monetary reward. The receiver of a reward system The rewards are on an individual level but an individual cannot get a reward if his/her group has not performed well. The group is the basis for everything. If a group has earned a reward they everyone within the group will get a reward, that is everyone that has a monthly salary (white collar workers, authors comment). 5.2 Construction Sector - CC1 5.2.1 The company and the respondent Background information CC1 is one of the leading companies in international developing project and construction. They are divided into four main markets: constructions and project development, homes, commercial properties and public private partnership.137 Our respondent is the personnel officer, or the personnel developer, of the construction unit region at CC1 Sweden. Her field of responsibility is focused on the union workers in that region and she has been working at this position for two years. The north region in Sweden stretches from Dalarna and upwards. At the current situation for the region there are a total of 320 skilled workers but during the summer the amount rises to approximate 650 workers. Our respondent does not have the exact number of white collar workers that works for CC1 region north but she estimates it to 300 people. Reward and reward system The respondent says that a reward can consist of so many different things but the first thing that comes to mind is the salary. She also states that she thinks that most people regard the salary as the number one type of reward. CC1 has two different salary systems depending on if you are a blue collar or white collar worker. The blue collar workers are bound by a union set agreement and a collective payment that is equal for all blue collar workers. They also have the possibility to get a piece work contract where the fall out is depending on the 137\nInformation gathered from the home page of CC1\nduration on a specific construction and can thereby vary from time to time. If they finish the construction before scheduled the piece work contract gives them extra money on top of the ordinary salary. The white collar workers at CC1 have an individual salary system where the workers negotiate with their managers both the terms of their salary and the amount. The separation of the salary system is because CC1 is not allowed to offer any individual salary system to a blue collar worker. This is due to the constraints the collective work agreement that the blue collar workers are tied to. The respondent says that a reward system on the other hand consist of so many different things than just the salary. When looking at the blue collar worker there can for instance be different types of joint activities, journeys and the opportunity to visit other projects than the one you are currently working with. A reward system is also a combination of benefits that the company does not have any obligations to offer but that CC1 chooses to offer regardless and this is not controlled by outside forces. The collective labor agreement is one of the outside forces that put constraints to possibility to reward but also give CC1 guidelines for rewards. CC1 offer their employees the chance to buy shares in the company. This is an opportunity that is exclusive to the employees to CC1 AB all over the world. If the company as a whole generates good result then the return on the investment to the employees will also be good. Most of the decision that are being made regarding the type of reward system used as well as the implementation of a system worldwide is done by CC1 AB. CC1 Sweden has the ability to make those decisions regarding all the regions and employee in Sweden. The regions can make some decision of their own but the spans of movement for the regions are tied to the result for the past years. 5.2.2 Motivation Needs One of the biggest goals for CC1 is to become Sweden\u2019s best employer or rather, The Industrial Life of Sweden\u2019s, best employer. To achieve this they focus on managing the collective agreement, employment and rehabilitations and so on in a correct way. In terms of becoming an attractive employer to the white collar workers CC1 is working very closely to the Universities and Colleges were they are mainly focusing on the technical programs. They are involved in several labor marked days were they present them self to the students. CC1 also has person that works over all the north regions, the respondents region is road and facility but there is also hose, asphalt and concrete and for some parts also groundwork. This person works closely towards Universities with focus on these different regions. The respondent feels that the employees at CC1 have a fairly great impact on their own working situation. However there is a difference between the white and the blue collar workers. The construction site is highly dependent on a working logistic since without it the construction site will not work at all. All the workers at a site work together to make sure that the structure is the right one and that the machinery is right for the project. They also have a part in making sure that all deliveries are placed at the right place and that the arrangement of the goods is correct. This is not only for the good of the project but also important issues when it comes to the security and the work environment at the construction site since most of the goods are very heavy.\nGoals and expectations CC1 is working on the basis of a business plan that is developed by CC1 Sweden AB and then broken down to the region levels and thereafter broken down to the districts. CC1 has different types of goals such as financial goals as well as working environment goals. The financial goal is an obvious goal for all companies, according to our respondent, but to CC1 there is also an important goal in how they take care of their customers, how they handle their projects and also how they handle their employees within the projects. All goals are broken down differently but all are founded on the vision of becoming The Industrial Life of Sweden\u2019s best employer. This vision has been tough to apply to the work environment since the construction industry has, compared to other industries, a rough work place. One goal has been to ensure zero work place accidents, since it is a vital thing to return home after a days\u2019 work in one piece without any injuries. Another part of CC1\u2019s goal is to build high-quality cooperation between the unions that CC1 has a collective agreement with. They also have a goal of developing a better development discussion with the employees as well as a good competent development at all levels. This should be done regardless if you are a concrete worker, ground worker or project or district managers. The plan for CC1 is quite heavy to follow and every year they pick some goals that they focus on during the year. In order to measure if the goals are met and if they are working aligned with the business plan CC1 has a management meeting twice a year to sum up previous work. The goals are established at region level once a year and then the districts develop them based on their business plans and distribute them to all employees. The aim is to distribute this on all construction sites. There is also something that they call week meetings that occurs at least every other week on the sites where they run through the project, what they need to think about in the next two weeks and so on. These types of business plans and goals are also passed by the union trustees. In order to make these goals accessible for the employees the respondent says that it all comes down to how well they manage to break them down to a sensible level. If we do not manage to do that then it becomes very difficult for the employees to grasp the goals. Depending on what goal we look at, for instance, CC1 has something called Green Workplace where their aim is to recycle material. They use crushed concrete as mass filling where it is possible; it all depends on the demands of the client and so on. It can also be a question of using a bike instead of a car when traveling inside a construction site when there is a short distance. We also try to use sheds that are developed on an environmental friendly basis. Our job here is then to communicate these goals down to the construction site so everyone feels that they know what they as an individual can do. If we do not manage this the respondent states that: \u201cOur goal becomes an undefined thing that leaves the workers with a feeling of indifference and that; they\u00b4ll just wait and see what happens. That is a challenge!\u201d There are constant checkups with the construction sites to make sure that they are working towards the set goal. Twice a year there is reconciliation were the respondent has a meeting with the different project leaders. Then there is a more informal checkup during the year to make sure they are on the right track. This is not always done by the respondent herself since she has a regional function that is more general and over bridging role and there is not enough time for the respondent to handle this by herself. But she states that she make sure that she has regular contact with those who has been delegated the task and ask how they are doing and make suggestions for further work. This is done to make sure that everyone knows that they are compared to the goal. 37\nTo make sure that the individuals\u2019 goals are met CC1 has developed something called a Competence Developing Plan. But the respondent means that it all comes down to what the employees want and strive for. As an example for a blue collar worker the closest career move is to become a team leader. If that is something that they want then it is mostly depending on the characteristics of both the position and person applying. The respondent says that CC1 has no term as \u201cthe right education\u201d in order of becoming a team leader. It is rather a question of competence, personality, and the ability to listen and lead in a good way. As for the blue collar workers is concerned CC1 has a lot of special competences regarding laying of pipes, tiling and such skills that you can become really good at. If you have this kind of competence there is a high chance that you will be set on those types of jobs. For instance, CC1 has on the wood and concrete division, a crew that is highly skilled when it comes to groundwork of energy plants and this is a competence not used in other areas. Something that the respondent feels is problematic for the collective workers are the lack of possibility to grab an opportunity and see that it generates positive things. However, the respondent says that there is a new thing under development in the construction industry to change this but they are not quite there yet. 5.2.3 Effectiveness and Efficiency The purpose with a reward system For CC1 the purpose with a reward system is a combination of motivational effects, reaching goals and increasing their efficiency. As the respondent says: \u201cIf we have motivated guys at the construction sites, the job will flow more effectively, there will be a more efficient work place; hence, the company will make more money.\u201d One purpose for CC1\u2019s reward system is also to create a good unity within the work team at the project. Each project leader is responsible for several projects and they have ability to make their own motivational arrangement. It can be everything from dinner or some other activity outside the work. The aim for these types of rewards is at one part to increase the unity but it is also to create a crew that works toward the same goal. As an example, the respondent states, to become the best in constructing bridges, roads or energy plants. But it is also CC1\u2019s chance to show their appreciation if there has been a good year or a good fall or if a project has gone beyond expected. The bottom-line is still to create a sustainable unity within the team. The groundwork of a reward system The main theme for the reward system at CC1 is tied to the constructions and projects that they are working on. The better the workers perform at the sites the better the reward will be. When looking at the side of the blue collar workers there is an old tradition of a piece work contract. When we receive a bid on a work we calculate the number of hours required to finish the work. If the workers finish the construction with fewer hours then the workers receive more pay and the company also makes more money. The system is, according to our respondent, a bit complicated. Even of this type of reward can be motivation to work more efficient there is also a downside to it, says the respondent. If you do not manage to keep up the pace of the work it can be more of a burden. But there is not only a matter of pay there can be the possibility to have influence and the ability to affect as well as feeling participation. If these parts are combinded with others then there will be a good result, a good construction. 38\nTypes of rewards When looking at the monetary reward at CC1, there is a reward in form of a bonus, for the white collar worker, based on the result of the different regions depending where you work. There is also the return on investment depending on if you have decided to invest in CC1 stocks or not. For the blue collar workers there is a limitation in the possibility to offer any monetary rewards. Due to the collective agreement they are not allowed to come up with a system of their own and offering a bonus based on how well a construction is doing. The collective agreement also determines the salary for the workers and the agreement is very specific on the companies\u2019 ability to offer rewards and salary. For the blue collar workers there is the possibility for piece work contract as a monetary reward or nothing at all unless they get a green light from the union. But they always have to negotiate about those types of things and as things are right now this is not possible since the construction union has resigned their big collective agreement. These types of piece work contracts are developed by the project leader and by the respondent at their region, but with guidelines from Sweden\u2019s Construction Industries that is CC1\u2019s employer\u2019s organization. CC1 also have projects where the workers are not working at their own home field and for those situations CC1 has a special set up of reward system. They put in extra effort in those projects that are separate from those who work \u201cat home\u201d. When the workers are outside their home ground there is an importance of finding solutions to make sure that keep the spirit up. Such solutions can be extra sport activities where CC1 rents a sport facility that the workers can use free of charge. The main theme is to make sure that there are some things to do for the workers. When you work at home you have family and your home life, without extra activities it can easily create the feeling of the need to work extra hours so that they can get back home. Since this is not always possible due to constraints in the types of the project and regulations of working hours, CC1 has put extra effort to find join solutions for these types of projects. The collective agreement, which is the same for the entire construction industry, is controlling CC1\u2019s possibilities to offer monetary rewards in form of bonuses and salary but CC1 has also a non monetary reward system. Within this system there is an extended parenting leave as well as health maintenance compensation. And this is something that is decided central from CC1 Sweden and is offered for all employees. Receiver of a reward system CC1 is using both individual as well as team based reward system. For the blue collar workers the reward fall out based on teams since the piece work contract is tied to the project itself and will fall out on those with in that specific project. If the work itself is tougher than usual or more intensive CC1 is offering the workers an extra pay to compensate and this compensation is only offered to those specific worker or workers. A project leader can be in charge of sometimes up to five construction sites. When it comes to the bonus system the fall out depends on how the different projects that the specific project leader is in charge of are doing. For the production leader who is in charge of a specific construction then the reward is dependent on that specific construction. The decision of who will receive a reward comes down to what kind of reward it regards. When it comes to the salary for the white collar worker it is decided at the on the personnel managers level combined with the closets manager such as region manager or district 39\nmanager. The bonus for the white collar workers is set by the region manager. For the rewards that are not combining with salary or bonuses such as traveling or gathering of the crew is decided on a project leader\u2019s level. 5.3 Production Sector \u2013 PC1 5.3.1 The Company and the Respondent Background information This company is one of the leading manufacturing companies regarding production of their product. 90 % of the production is exported abroad. The company has 330 employees in Ume\u00e5, where the head quarter also is located, and 650 employees within the whole corporate group. Further they have companies and factories in Sweden, Europe and USA. The respondent has been working for this company for eleven years and her current position is Human Resource officer. Reward and reward system The organization has two different salary systems, one for the blue collar workers and one for the white collar workers. The blue collar workers are following a collective salary agreement while the white collar workers have an individual salary system. The company also takes into consideration the number of years an employee has been working for them and what type of position he/she has. The company is not part of a central reward system and today they only have a reward system for the blue collar workers. This is a production bonus that is based on the number of items produced and the time to produce them. The number of items produced is 70 % of the bonus while the time is the remaining 30 % of the bonus. This reward system is something that has been discussed for quite some time at the company, together with IF Metall and the union for the white collar workers. The idea has always been to offer the employees some kind of bonus that is based on the production, and like our respondent said: \u201cIF Metall has discussed that if I run faster, if I do a better job, then it should be shown in the wallet\u201d However, since it is so difficult to measure the production among the white collar workers this reward system was offered only to the blue collar workers. 5.3.2 Motivation Needs The company considers themselves to be an attractive employer since they are an expansive, international company that has the head quarter in Ume\u00e5, which is rare. The white collar workers have possibilities to climb in the company hierarchy as well as to have an international career. The company is not a bureaucratic organization and they are focusing a lot on healthcare for their employees. The white collar workers can easily influence their own work since they can plan their own days. The blue collar workers do not have the same possibility to influence their own job since one item has to be produced every 4,40 minutes. However there are different groups that are constantly trying to see how processes and activities can be improved among the blue collar workers. Also since the blue collar workers are more bound by the technology, they do not have the same possibility to influence their job as the white collar workers have. To 40\nimprove the job satisfaction among the employees the company is constantly working with different projects. In 2005 the company got a completely new factory where the blue collar workers started to work on line production. In the beginning the workers were moving from station to station in a wagon, in order to go through the whole line, but that turned out to be very ineffective. So they changed it, and each employee had to be at one station for one day. This was later reduced so that the employees changed station every hour. Today the workers are again moving from station to station in order to get more variation in their work. Goals and expectations The overall goal of the company is to produce their items to the right time and right cost. Additional to this every division/department has their own goals; this could for example be to decrease the purchase costs or to increase the invoice effectiveness. On a weekly basis the company is also looking at the cost per item, cost per employee and so on. So everything is constantly being followed up. The goals of the organization are communicated to the workers both orally and in written form. In the factory the goals are posted on billboards together with facts about how things have looked in the past and how well they are performing now in order to reach the goals. So in the factory the goals are communicated both orally and in written forms. Among the white collar workers the goals are mostly communicated orally and again it is easier to measure the goals in the factory since they can be measured while this is something that is more difficult among the white collar workers. In order to reach the goals the employees can always try to see how things can be improved in order to increase the effectiveness and efficiency. This is something that the employees are encouraged to do. When an employee has ideas about how things can be improved the company will try to change it. This is a way for the employees to stay motivated when they see that their opinions really matters. At the factory there are two meetings every day, one before the morning shift and one before the afternoon shift. The purpose with these meetings is to go through yesterday\u2019s shift and see if there is anything that can be improved for today\u2019s shift. Feedback is given to the employees continuously during different processes and activities. At the production side there is a meeting every second week and among the white collar workers it is either every second week or once a month. At the factory there are meetings every day before a shift starts and every week the company goes through the order and number of sold items from the week before. So basically feedback is given every day or every week. Further feedback is given to specific activities at different departments so that the employees can feel that they influence their situation. Individual goals are difficult to take into consideration, at least among the blue collar workers. This since the product produced by PC1 has to be produced every 4, 40 minutes. Here the workers are seen more as a team that have one common goal. Among the white collar workers it is easier to have individual goals and it is possible that the manager for each department has specific goals for his/her employees. The company is dealing a lot with intern recruiting and all open positions are being posted internally. Among the blue collar workers intern recruiting is very, very common. Among the white collar workers it is a mixture of both, sometimes it is better to recruit internally and sometimes externally, in order to get some new blood into the building. Many employees have started at the production side and have today a higher position in the company. Occasionally the white collar workers might say to the Human Resource department that they are keen in changing their position or department in the company and ask the HR department to keep them in mind next time they are recruiting. 41\n5.3.3 Effectiveness and Efficiency The purpose with a reward system The primary purpose with the reward system is to make the employees feel that they can affect their work and that they will get sufficient feedback on their work. The groundwork with a reward system The groundwork of the reward system is the number of products produced and the time it took to produce them. The reward system is therefore based on production. It is always the group executive committee that makes decision regarding the reward system. If we will implement a reward system that is based on the profit of the organization then it will be the board that will take the decisions since the shareholders will want to be included in that reward system. But this is not something that will be implemented in the near future due to the financial crisis in the world. The managers of the different departments have the authority to give small rewards, like coffee and cake for example, if he/she wants to acknowledge the good work of the employees. Another type of reward that the managers are encouraged to give their employees is feedback. The managers are reminded constantly about this and they have also had the opportunity to be part of work shops where this has been the topic. The managers are also educated in having development discussions with their employees. Types of rewards This company has the production bonus that they offer and they are working a lot with improving the feedback that is given to the employees. Once a year development discussions are held with the employees where they get feedback on their work but the employee can also give feedback back to the manager. It is not only important to give feedback when an employee has done something good, it is just as important to give feedback when something bad has been done. The company has recently started a project which main purpose is to constantly improve processes and activities within the company and to create a more structured way of working. Further the company has an individual salary system among the white collar workers, which is seen as a type of reward system, and in the future this will become even more individual. They also have some non monetary rewards like flexible working hours, the possibility to influence the own work, again only for the white collar workers. They are also offering gym memberships to a reduced price and are focusing on healthcare. Receiver of a reward system The production bonus is only offered to the blue collar workers since it is so difficult to implement a reward system among the white collar workers that is based on production, this because it is more difficult to measure production among the white collar workers. So the production bonus is given to teams, and it is not something that can be measured individually. Today the white collar workers do not have a reward system like the blue collar workers have, but it has been discussed to develop a reward system that would be useful for the whole company, both blue and white collar workers, that is based on the profitability of the organization. But how to measure this is difficult and there is a specific team that is working with this but since the world is now going through a financial crisis this project is put on hold. This reward system will include monetary rewards only.\n5.4 Production Sector \u2013 Norrmejerier 5.4.1 The Company and the Respondent Background information Our respondent, Sinikka Lindquist, is the manager of the human resources at Norrmejeriers head office. She has worked within the organization for almost 20 years with different positions and fifteen years at the current position here in Ume\u00e5. Norrmejerier is a local company that is represented in the northern part of Sweden. The respondent states that generally they say that they are located in seven different places in Norr- and V\u00e4sterbotten but that this is a truth with some modification. Norrmejerier can be seen as being located in more places than that due to their involvement in something called Production Service. There are several stations in Production service with the purpose of assisting the farmers with all activities involved in optimizing the production of milk. They are also involved in giving the farmers information regarding the quality of the forage that can give the best quality in the milk and the highest return on investment. Norrmejerier produces more products than just dairy food and Gainomax, V\u00e4sterbottensost and Jokk are some of the items that are on their list of labels. They have two dairy plants, one in Lule\u00e5 with 100 blue collar workers. The largest dairy plant is in Ume\u00e5 and that holds 200 blue collar workers in the plant and 60 white collar workers in the office. They also have a cider factory where they processes all berries used in their products as well as cheese storage. They also have their own sales staff and tank service. They are also involved in something called joint distribution where Norrmejerier is in charge of delivery trucks. Together with other companies they share delivery trucks and distribute products in the northern part of Sweden. The total amount of employees in all areas was last year 460 at Norrmejerier. Reward and reward system Norrmejerier uses different salary systems depending on what group of employees we are talking about. The blue collar workers at the production floor follow a collective agreement where the salaries are set on a joint basis and that there will be the same amount for the same type of work. The blue collar workers do, however, have some flexibility to negotiate a more individual salary as well depending on if they have multiple skills or not. Those who have knowledge in more than one area can get an additional payment. The white collar workers have an individual salary system. Sinikka Lindquist does not feel that Norrmejerier has a fully developed definition of a reward system but she says that their aim is to be a good company and a good employer. She also says that they receive lots of spontaneous open application where the applicants say that they want to work for Norrmejerier on the basis of their good reputation. The aim for their reward system is to create a healthy environment for the employees at their work place and put a high standard on the comfort of their employees. They try to have the same reward system spread on all areas in the organization but due to differentiation in the number of employees at these location there is however some variance. Sinikka estimates that 90 % of their reward system is applied on the entire organization and concerns all employees. Most of the decisions made regarding the reward system at Norrmejerier are made at the human resource department. But the directorate that is the highest decision-making management can make some adjustments to the reward system as well. Norrmejerier 43\ndistributes the information regarding the reward system through their intranet in something called \u201ca handbook for employees\u201d. They also have an employee magazine that is distributed every two months that tells the employees about their reward system. They also have announcement boards as well as department meetings as a reminder and to inform if there are any changes. 5.4.2 Motivation Needs Sinikka feels that their construction of rewards within their system helps them to become an attractive employer. They need to work with these kinds of things since the food process industry has in general a lower salary level than for instance the car production industries. They are very involved in making sure that their employees can grow within their company and Sinikka says that almost every manager in the dairy plant has started at the working floor and moved up the career ladder. For those that have the will to move forward Norrmejerier offers trainee programs for instance when they saw that there would be a lot of natural retirements. This is, according to Sinikka, some of the things Norrmejerier does to keep their good name. For the employees Normmejerier has production meeting where everyone can get an opportunity to ventilate their opinions regarding their work situation and so on. They have also implemented a lean system that is called the Toyota Model were they work more efficient with small changes. It means that they have meetings every morning, no longer then ten minutes or so, were every production sections meet and inform how the previous 24 hours have been. The entire work team is then gathered and this gives the employees an opportunity to share ideas and make suggestions to improve their work situation. They also have departmental meetings once a month. Sinikka also says that the employees have a possibility to influence their work situation in the way they perform their chores on a day to day basis. Once or twice a year the CEO has a meeting with the collective representatives were he gathers as well as gives view points to the representatives. Norrmejerier also has a suggestions box where the employees can hand in suggestions for improvement. They use to reward the best suggestion but as for now they are not offered any more but they try to come up with an alternative. They found that it is difficult to reward suggestion regarding improvements of their day to day work since it sometimes, even if it means improving the profitability, is something that is within the limits of your work duties as it is. To improve the comfort with the work situation and job satisfaction is something that the directorate pays attentions to through the departmental meetings; everyone should be giving the opportunity to be heard. Sinikka states that there is a different need for improvement in an office if compared to a noisy department. However, she feels that they are very good in improving the physical work environment for the workers and that Norrmejerier invests a lot of money in this type of improvement. Such things as staff rooms for the employees are also, according to Sinikka, an important issue to consider when talking about satisfaction for the employees. It is important that the staff room is enjoyable. Exercising and keeping a healthy diet are important issues for Norrmejerier since they are in the food industry. They have an extensive knowledge regarding good diets and they use this knowledge, not only when they develop new products, when taking care of the employees. It is important to have control over the amount of sugar and fat that are in the food. As a result\nof this Norrmejerier treats their employees with free milk, soured milk and cheese and crisp bread with spreads along with coffee and tea. Sinikka says: \u201dThis makes it easy for the employees to have a proper lunch regardless if you bring your own food with you or not\u201d. Goals and expectations Norrmejerier has both a total goal for the entire organization as well as sub goals for the different departments. Sinikka says that they discuss this matter in the lean production context regarding goals that can be measured since not everything that we do can be measured. As an example: Sinikka states that the telephone exchange and the operators where there is difficult to make measurable goals for them to obtain. If there is a goal that they should answer a number of X telephone calls in one day but there are not that many calls, how do we measure that? It is difficult to say what is most important, to answer quickly or is it more important that the call is perceived as good for the caller? It is difficult to measure these kinds of activities even if they should act professional and answer quickly yet maintain a high quality. It is the same thing with the payment office, it can sometimes be better to use more time to finish the job rather that hurry up and do the job poorly. Right now, Norrmejerier has one goal of 100 % security in delivering the payment in the right time and with right amount. But the right amount can vary with regards of other things that the payment office has no control over. The intranet and the employee magazine are not only used for information regarding the reward system the company also uses these information channels to inform everyone about the goals. They have also had employment days where they invited all employees with their respective partner and where the CEO is present. They also invited lecturers who can incorporate goal messages into their lectures. Last year they invited a lecturer who has extensive knowledge regarding the lean production and informed the employees about the thoughts behind the idea. Sinikka says that the basic idea is for the employees to work fast and efficient but there is not up to one single individual to achieve the goals. It is more a question of cooperation and it is through the production meetings that all work are decided and structured. Those meetings can contribute to the individuals\u00b4 self confidence and make the employee feel that he or she through their work makes the company a good company. Norrmejerier has moved from only focusing on top-down planning to a more bottom-up planning. This is due to the fact that if the workers feels good and are happy at work they contribute to a well being to the entire work team. Hence, if the work team is a well being group then the managers also feels good and so on all the way to the top. Of course it is important that the planning works both ways, says Sinikka, with the top management showing up a good example. When the top-down planning is well established the bottom-up planning takes over and becomes more important. In Norrmejerier there is no formal or written decision how feedback to the employees should be treated. Sinikka says that there are no specific rules regarding that feedback should be giving at specific point in the process. The company as a whole has a more subtle culture that encourage that feedback is being given during any work processes. The possibility to give feedback down to an individual level is done through the development discussions with the employee. In these discussions the individual goals are set and there will be follow-ups to make sure that these goals are reachable. Norrmejerier has developed good possibilities for their employee to move within the company. The goals for the individual can however be colliding with the interest of the organization and therefore have to be left without any 45\nattention. An individual goal can also be, according to Sinikka, regarding to the salary. Norrmejerier has a salary ceiling for certain positions and if an individual has reached this limit the company cannot offer more. They try to offer another position for that employee or else they cannot meet the individual goal. For the white collar workers feedback can also be given in a more indirect way through their negotiation of the salaries since a raise can be seen as proof of a job well done. Feedback does not necessarily has to consist of positive things it can also be things that need to be improved, things that the managers expect the workers to do but they do not do. The feedback can also be a matter of synchronize different opinions and make sure that they aligns and the company improves. If the managers do not explain their position the employees cannot make any changes, without any feedback the employees might not find their work to be satisfying. 5.4.3 Effectiveness and Efficiency The purpose with a reward system Since Norrmejerier does not have a specified announced reward system Sinikka finds it difficult to pinpoint a purpose for the reward system. She does, however, have her own opinion that it all involves the satisfaction at work for the employees. The reward system should show the employees that the company finds their work satisfying and that the company appreciates the employees. The groundwork of a reward system The groundwork of the rewards within Norrmejerier is more developed for the white collar workers since they can, through good work, affect their payment. Norrmejerier tries to avoid rewards in form of occasional or subjective types when someone has done something extra. This is done to avoid misinterpretation of what a good job is. \u201cIf one department receives something extra then the other departments wonders why they do not receive anything\u201d, as Sinikka states. Sinikka tells that she has, from her own pocket, bought something extra for the coffee brake to her department. But there is however some limitations due to the fairness of the rewards and therefore Sinikka find it hard to specify what they found their rewards on. Types of rewards Beside the food that Norrmejerier is offering to their employees at the work place they have also developed rewards that involve their wellbeing in general. This is align with their main purpose of finding a balance and contribute to a more healthier and comfortable living for their employees. Norrmejerier has a health maintenance contribution where the employee gets 2000 sek when handing in a receipt on some health related activities or half of the value of the receipt. This is regulated by the Swedish government who also set the limit of the sum that can be reimbursed. Sinikka also says that this can not only be used for exercising activities but also for massage, a visit to the chiropractor or even smoke weaning. Norrmejerier also set aside 200 sek a year and per employee into a pot for something that they call recreational activities. There is a committee that plans activities, and the employer is not involved in this decision, where this money is used for treating the employees to a dinner or even a family day at a farm for instance. These activities are optional and if the employees do not want to join they do not have to and their sum is divided on those who participate. Additional to this they also set aside 350 sek per employee for something that they call department activities or team building for that department. The requirement for these types of activities and pot of money is 46\nthat they fall out in any connection for education or information meeting regarding the company. Even if the activity should be connected to the company in some way the pot of money is for fun activities for the employees. Norrmejerier also has lunch coupons for their employees who work outside the dairy. In the dairy they have a subsidize lunch room with reduced lunch prizes. All employees can also buy products from the dairy with a discount and the order gets delivered to the head office and the refrigerator that are located there. According to Sinikka, this is a benefit that is highly appreciated by the families with children since they do not have to go to the store and carry home a heavy load of milk. Receiver of a reward system Norrmejerier has both individual rewards as well as team based rewards that are the same for all employees. They also have separate rewards that are divided on departments as well as rewards that fall out on the entire staff regardless were they work in the case of the different pots of money. At a individual level there is the reward that regards the health activities and the discount on products is the same for everyone but is depending on if the employee uses the benefit or not. 5.5 Service Sector - Bravida 5.5.1 The Company and the Respondent Background information Bravida is a company that is handling installation of electricity, heat and sanity ware and ventilation. The company operates in Sweden, Norway and Denmark with a total of 8000 employees. In Sweden alone Bravida has 5000 employees. Bravida consider them self to be a company in the service sector since they are selling their services to their customers, which can be everything from installations to consulting assignments to different types of energy investigations. The respondent is Hans- \u00c5ke Lampa and he has been working for Bravida in Ume\u00e5 since 1989 and on BPA, the former name of Bravida, since 1979. Hans- \u00c5ke\u2019s position in the company is the Head of Department at the power division. Reward and reward system Bravida has a number of different salary systems but basically they have an individual salary system for the white collar workers while the blue collar workers are following a collective contract agreement. However all blue collar workers do not follow the same collective contract agreement since there are different types of blue collar workers. Bravida has for example electricians and engineering workers who follow different types of collective agreements. These agreements are decided centrally but there are possibilities to regulate them locally to some extent. When it comes to the white collar workers (not the ones that are members of Ledarna), their salary is decided on locally but are following guide lines that have been decided centrally. The white collar workers that are members of Ledarna on the other hand, is strictly following an individual salary system that is being negotiated locally and is based on goal achievements. Further our respondent pointed out that all white collar workers are getting a monthly salary while about 50 % of the blue collar workers are getting a monthly salary and the remaining 50 % are following a piece work contract. When discussing the reward system at Bravida, Hans- \u00c5ke is pointing out that the salary is not a reward system; rather it is something that the employee is getting for a job he/she is 47\nperforming. Han- \u00c5ke is defining the reward system at Bravida as the bonus, or tantiem that they are calling it, which is offered to the white collar workers that are part of the production, that is project managers and Head of Departments for example. This tantiem is based on the result of the department. There are also some local reward systems that follow no central guide lines, this can for example be that the blue collar workers can get a bonus based on how well the result of their department is or how well the project they are working on is. This bonus to the blue collar workers has been introduced in order to increase the engagement and the feeling of participation among the blue collar workers. It is the executive group committee that is deciding whether to make use of a reward system or not. The reward system was initially presented to the different unions and the ones that are working with service before implementing it into the organization. Our respondent pointed out that you always have to look over the reward system since there might be things that can be improved or needs to be changed. 5.5.2 Motivation Needs In order to become an attractive employer Bravida is focusing a lot on encourage their employees to develop their skills and knowledge. If one starts as an electrician at Bravida it does not mean that that person has to work with that forever, rather he/she has the possibility to advance in the company hierarchy. Further Bravida considers it to be of importance to create a healthy culture within the organization with the aim to have a \u201cwe\u201d feeling rather than \u201cwe\u201d and \u201cthem\u201d in order to strengthen the organization. This is done by arranging meetings where both the white- and blue collar workers are attending. If there is a \u201cwe\u201d spirit within the company, then it will be much more fun to go to work. Once a year every employee has the right to a development discussion where it will be discussion of the positive and the negative aspects of the job as well as what can be done to improve the negative aspects. The employee\u2019s ambitions to grow is also discussed an at every development discussion a new plan for the individual employee will be outlined. These types of issues can of course be discussed continuously during the year with either the project manager or with the Head of Department. Hans- \u00c5ke said that since Bravida is having a very flat organization hierarchy, the employees feel that they can come and talk to him or the project manager or to the union\u2019s trustee whenever something is on their mind. It is important to Bravida that they do not have a lot of processes and activities that the personnel is not positive about, rather Bravida will try to change them so that both parties will be satisfied with the solution. In order to increase the job satisfaction among the employees Bravida provides them with a gold card at IKSU that they can buy to a heavily reduced price. Goals and expectations The overall goal of Bravida is to be the number one total assembly fitter in Scandinavia within power, heat and sanity ware and ventilation. This goal has to be broken down into smaller ones in order to it to be possible to achieve. Further, every department has own goals but together everyone at Bravida is working towards the organization\u2019s overall goal. The goals are being decided centrally and then they are communicated downwards in the organization so that everyone is aware of the goals. The goals will also be communicated to the unions so they also are aware about what goals Bravida will have for the upcoming year. 48\nWhen the unions have agreed to these goals, and when small adjustments have been made then the goals are communicated to the employees at a meeting. At the meetings Bravida will not only present the new goals they will also go through the goal achievements from the previous year. Hans-\u00c5ke points out the importance that each employee is aware of the goals, especially since Bravida is a quality and environmental certified company. Due to this there will be both internal and external revisions that will review the company. Included in Bravida\u2019s certification is to make the employees aware of the goals of the organization in order for them to know how to work with different projects. It is not always possible for one single employee to affect the goals but together with teams it will be possible. The environmental goals can, for example, be achieved by encourage the employees to use a specific material and the quality goals can be achieved by having high quality on the work. Another important factor is to make sure that the customer is satisfied with Bravida\u2019s services and work. Further Hans-\u00c5ke says that feedback is something that could be improved within the company. Often feedback is given when a goal has been reached or when the project has been finished. However, Hans-\u00c5ke thinks that maybe it is more important to give feedback during a process or activity rather than when it has been finished. As for the individuals\u2019 goals Hans-\u00c5ke points out that it is not possible for Bravida to take each individual\u2019s goal in consideration, since Bravida is a company that has to make profit. Further, some of the goals that the employees have might not have a positive impact of the company rather they are more to develop the employee. If this is the case then the individual goals might not taken so much into consideration. However if there are employees that have individual goals that benefit both the employee as well as the company then the goals will be considered by Bravida. Further Hans-\u00c5ke says that Bravida has development discussions with their employees where things like this should be discussed. 5.5.3 Effectiveness and Efficiency The purpose with a reward system Bravida has chosen to make use of a reward system in order to increase their profit. That is the primary purpose with it, like Hans-\u00c5ke says: \u201c\u2026I was going to say to earn more money\u2026 that is the whole purpose whit it\u2026\u201d However Hans-\u00c5ke points out that a reward system will of course make the employees feel more involved in the processes and they will feel part of the company but at the end all this will lead to that the company is making higher profits. If the employees are feeling part of the company it will increase the job satisfaction and again it will most likely lead to higher profits for Bravida. A reward system can also be used to attract new, skilled employees which again will lead to that the company will become stronger and generate a higher profit.\nThe groundwork of a reward system Today the rewards at Bravida are solely based on the results. Even if some might want to include \u201csoft\u201d parameters there is always a risk of it becoming too subjective and not just. The decision whether to get a reward or not is made by the executive group committee, at least among the white collar workers. If one department is doing really well then they will get a bonus, which is decided by the executive group committee. The reward that has been decided 49\non locally, then it is Hans-\u00c5ke that makes the decisions. When for example a project had been finished and the decision whether or not to get a reward is to be made, Hans-\u00c5ke will gather all employees that have a chance to get the reward. He will then discuss the outcome of the project and how much each employee will receive. In some cases there are circumstances which have had a negative impact on the project and then these have to be taken into consideration when evaluating the project. Hans-\u00c5ke points out the importance that the employees feel that they can affect the project otherwise they will feel that their effort does not matter. The managers, middle managers and project managers have the authority to reward their employees if they have done an excellent job. The team can for example go out for dinner or go bowling. However if the manager wants to give the employees a monetary reward then it has to be discussed with the Head of Department. It should be pointed out that there are now rules for this rather it will be communicated to all departments that this is how we usually do it. It is important that all departments have the same possibilities regarding these types of rewards. Whether the employees will get a reward is up to the managers, the main issue is that the team is achieving the goals for that particular project. Types of rewards As has been mentioned above Bravida is offering a tantiem to some white collar workers, they also have a bonus system for the blue collar workers that are based on the outcome of a project. Further, the white collar workers have flexible working hours, as long as they continue to do their job, Bravida offers healthcare to their employees and the employees have the opportunity to buy an Iksu card to a reduced price. Receiver of a reward system The rewards at Bravida are given to both individual employees as well as to teams and groups. 5.4 Service Sector \u2013 SC1 5.5.4 The Company and the Respondent Background information SC1 is an international service company and in Sweden they have 12000 employees. The company is divided into different business areas spread over the country. The business area that the respondent represents is the only area that is located in the north part of Sweden. The business area has 650 employees and the company stretches from \u00d6rnsk\u00f6ldsvik to Kiruna. The respondent has the title H-R coordinator in her company and has had this position since 2003. Since the other business areas are not located in the same geographic region as SC1 the respondent states that they do not have as much contact with the other business areas as they do in the southern part of Sweden. Reward and reward system SC1 uses two different salary systems, one for the blue collar workers and one for the white collar workers. The blue collar workers are bound by a union set agreement and a collective payment that is equal for all blue collar workers. The white collar workers have individual salaries that are individually negotiated with their managers. The salaries are thereby locally set but are based on central directions regarding the span which they can negotiate within.\nThe respondent does not feel that SC1 has a specific reward system in that sense. They do, however, have one reward or a bonus that is attached to when the employees sell extra services. SC1 is a service company and has service as a base but there is also the possibility to sell other products to their customers. These products are separate from the service that they offer and consist of other office supplies and facilities. If you, regardless if you are white or blue collar worker, tip the sellers off and that it leads to a deal the employees are offered a percentage of that particular deal. This is decided at a central level in the company and is the same for all employees. The respondent also states that there are some other concepts that are being discussed but have not yet been applied to their region. SC1 aims to have a consistency in their reward system and has the same system all over the company. The information regarding what reward system they have and what are required of the employees to obtain it is distributed on the intranet and by the region managers on each region. Due to the aim of consistency of the distribution of the reward the decisions made at a central level and not made locally. 5.5.5 Motivation Needs SC1 works intensively with their intern education and that their employee has the ability to grow within their organization. The respondent says that all companies want to be an attractive employer. In order to become just that SC1 market themselves as a company with a high percentage of internally recruited managers. This is however, according to the respondent, not only a good thing but their blue collar workers have the ability to become a region manager and that this possibility is important. SC1 feels that there is an extent supply of internal development to assimilate for the employees. Those employees that feel that they want to move forward, the SC1 structure, with many different business areas, offers the employee to move between those areas as well. The respondent stresses the fact that this is easier if you are located outside the northern region since there is only one business area represented there. But the respondent says that for their region this internal development is just as important and is always on the program for development. This northern region has had a candidate program or a small trainee program where they want to evolve certain individuals to a manager position or a specialist position. SC1 also feels that it is important to be portrayed as a serious company but this is, according to the respondent, more important for companies in their business section when it come to the relationship with their clients. But the respondent says that it gets really important to follow all rules related to work rights and SC1 wants to be seen as a safe company for their employees to work in. This gets especially important since their branch is suffering from non serious companies. If the employees have any thoughts regarding their work situation they can talk directly to their manager. SC1 has a forum for the blue collar workers side where the respondent feels that the day to day dialogue is the most important. There are continuous work place meetings where the employees have the chance to shed light to their opinions. The communication within SC1 is all based on the connection the employee has with their superior and that this gives a sense of possibility to ventilate opinions for the employee. The last year SC1 has put extra effort to developing the work place meetings so that those meetings become more than an information meeting were the managers just distribute 51\ninformation. They have tried to place different themes to the meetings so that everyone feels engaged. SC1 also offers development meetings with the employees where the employees can share thoughts and opinions regarding their work situation and so on. For the white collar workers the SC1 has different meetings that aim to capture similar things. Last year the respondent\u00b4s region started a project that will over look how they work, on the white collar side, and how they can improve their collaboration. They also want to improve how they prioritize in order to look at the big picture and not to get lost in little details. The respondent feels that this can enhance the work satisfaction and for the employees to feel god about what they are doing. Goals and expectations SC1 as a company has several goals but one overall goal is that they strive to be number one in their service section. Then there are regional goals within different areas as well and they all regard issues as where they aim to be in the future and financial goals. They also have goals regarding the number of sick leaves they have in the company, the number of educations they need to conduct, how many work place meetings they should have and how many new business they need to do. As the respondent says: \u201cThere are goals for generally everything we do!\u201d SC1 uses the work place meetings to distribute and communicate their goals to the employees. They have a strategic plan from which they lift out parts that are presented as goals regarding environmental issues and future plans and so on. The most difficult part is to break down these goals to a level where the employees feel that they can contribute with something that affects the goals. It is the respective manager\u2019s responsibility to break down the goals since they all are responsible for their own cost center where they also have a budget. However, the respondents say that they have a long way to go in this area to distribute this in an effective way. As a consequence the improvement of this has become one of SC1 goals. The managers continuously give feedback to the employees due to the high meeting frequency. This is done in order to make sure that SC1 reaches their financial goals. Among the collective contract workers there are however less follow-ups. There are not goals in general that is regarded but more a question of making sure that they perform in an efficient way and are doing a good job with the client. In the collective contract workers there are, according to the respondent, not a sufficient feedback to individuals per se but rather a focus on the managers. With the managers there is a direct feedback in terms of specifics of this should be improved or cut back on this expensive. After that it is up to the managers to deliver this information to the workers and how they need to involve their employees. The goals for the individuals are set during the development meeting and the year after that there is a follow-up with the employee. The respondent also says that there are some followups during the year as well to make sure that SC1 is on the right track. 5.5.6 Effectiveness and Efficiency The purpose with a reward system Even if SC1 does not see them self as having a full developed reward system they do however feel that the rewards they have set the purpose of stimulating happiness at work. They aim is to create a feeling of:\n\u201cIf I contribute with something extra, I will get something extra in return\u201d, said the respondent. It is important, according to the respondent, which their employees feel pride and joy in their work and their achievement. The groundwork of a reward system SC1 finds it difficult to make specifics of what is the base for the rewards. Since there is not an exact system for rewarding it is easier to measure and find specifics to reward among the sell staff and reward them by giving them provision says the respondent. This is something that other work groups at SC1 do not have. The other system that SC1 does have and that is more expressed within the organization is however based on sales and bringing in more business to the company. This is, as said before, for all employees regardless of your position, and the main theme is hence a financial groundwork. Types of rewards The groundwork is financial for the reward system in SC 1 as well as the reward handed out to their employees in form of bonuses and a percentage compensation for extra business brought into the company. When looking beyond the monetary reward that SC1 has, there is a more non monetary system that all include some form of education for their employees. There is also health maintenance compensation which means that for those who buy any form of health activity the employee gets some money back from SC1. In one section at SC1 they have developed another system where they put the entire sum for health care into one place and the employees can make use of a full year membership at this location that is then free of charge. There is also the ability to make use of more flexible working hours. This is however easier for the white collar workers since they are not as dependent on the clients\u00b4 demand as the blue collar workers are. Receiver of a reward system SC1 has both individual and group based reward system. Those rewards that are centrally decided all depends on the individuals own contribution in bringing in more business. Locally each manager has their own span, a limit to how much they can attest themselves regarding the cost of the reward, within they can make their own decision of how they want to reward their employees and those are often group based. Most of the time is about taking the work group out for lunch or coffee break with something extra that is not limited to separate employees but to an entire group. But generally when it comes down to these types of rewards for the blue collar workers it is up to the plant manager to decide if there will fall out a reward and what kind of reward. For the support activities, the white collar workers, the decision is made by the region managers if a reward should be handed out that are outside what is centrally decided. The respondent feels that most of the rewards at SC1 are group based due to the fact that most of their rewards are concentrated to establish a well-being at the work place through their themes at their work place meeting and their education. The main theme for SC1 in their reward system is to create a feeling within the employees as the respondent stated: \u201cWow something is happening and it is fun and it contributes to my well being\u201d\n6. Analysis In this chapter we will analyze the empirical findings from our respondents with the basis of the theoretical framework of the thesis. We will first analyze each sector and then make a comparison between the sectors in order to serve our purpose and answer our research question. A summary of the analysis can be found in appendix 3. 6.1\nReward, reward system and salary 6.1.1 Construction sector\nOur respondents in the construction sector, NCC and CC1, are two large companies and they are the leading companies in their sector. The two companies consist of both white and blue collar workers. The blue collar workers are bound by a collective contract through a union agreement that is the same for all companies in the sector. Both NCC and CC1 have a developed reward system and they both make strategic investment in their human capital that is in line with the theories138. We found that both companies work in a sufficient way to establish a functional work environment and aiming to improve the employment relationship. However, the empirical findings show not only similarities in how they make this type of investment, there are some dissimilarities as well. In the construction sector the respondents showed that the use of both monetary and non monetary rewards is represented. However, there are differences in how they fold out in practice for the two companies. According to the theories a flexible salary system consists of a basic pay as well a flexible part139. Both NCC and CC1 make use of a flexible salary system in accordance with the theories through piece work contract based on performance on projects and bonuses that are based on the performance of the entire company. These types of rewards have the potential to motivate the employees since the employees can have a direct impact on their salary through their work performance. For the organizations this type of reward is a steering mechanism that not only impacts their employees but could have an impact on the overall performance of the companies as well.140 An improvement in the employees\u2019 performance will not only give a result in the paycheck it will also have positive result for the organizations result as a whole. As for the piece work contract the employees have a closer relation to the amount of reward they will achieve through their effort than for the white collar workers. The rewards for the white collar workers are more dependent on an overall achievement of the workers since the bonus is based on the end result of the year, a result that is linked to every ones performance. An assumption that we can make is that the purpose of the flexible salary system has a higher motivating potential when the flexible part is more closely linked to the actual task as well as the employee. As an addition to the piece work contract, CC1 offers a stock program for the employees which tie the employees\u2019 performance and the reward available for them more closely together.\nArmstrong Michael, (2003), p. 8 Svensson Arne, Wilhelmsson Lars, (1988), p. 11 140 Ibid, p. 67 139\n6.1.2 Production Sector Our respondents in the production sector are an anonymous company, PC1, and Norrmejerier. Both companies have a leading position in the manufacturing markets for their products and their manufacturing plants are located in Ume\u00e5. As in the construction sector these companies also have a mixture of white and blue collar workers. As seen in the construction sector the respondents in the production sector have a fully developed reward system and make conscious choices when investing in their human capital. But for these companies the dissimilarities are more obvious regarding the use of the system in order to motivate their employees. Even if Norrmejerier makes use of both financial and non financial rewards they have chosen not to convert them into a monetary reward at all. Raoul Smitt states that the flexible salary system is a part of a reward system that is connected to the actual work141. In this study we found that Norrmejerier does not use a flexible salary system for their employees as PC1 does. PC1 uses the monetary rewards in a more traditional way with a reward connected to the productivity and this bonus is only for the blue collar workers who work mainly with production. Svensson and Wilhelmson mean in their book that the monetary rewards that are connected with the employees\u2019 production might motivate the employee since they can affect the outcome by their own action 142. Since Norrmejerier does not use these kinds of rewards then the theories suggest that this might have a negative impact on their individual productivity if compared to the employees on PC1 who receive rewards. The critics of the use of reward system, on the other hand, say that this type of strategy that Norrmejerier uses has a greater impact on the productivity in a positive way. This due to that those who do not expect a reward, according to Kohn, will show a better productivity result.143 Since both companies are market leaders in their line of products we make the assumption that this is a good indicator of that their reward system regardless of the differences, generate efficiency. At least a level of efficiency that generates a financial outcome that is satisfying. The use of different style of reward system could potentially be explained in the type of production they have since PC1 has a more physical production where the production is more hands on than in Norrmejerier. 6.1.3 Service Sector In the service sector the two respondent companies, Bravida and the anonymous company SC1, are two large companies in their markets with a large amount of employees working for them. They proved services to other companies but are operating in two very different lines of fields. As the other sectors Bravida and SC1 have both blue and white collar workers among their employees. Just as for other blue collar workers in other sectors they are restricted to a collective agreement. The main differences between the two companies are their levels of development of a reward system. Bravida works more extensively with their system compared to SC1. There are clear differences in their strategic choices when investing in their employees. The investment in the human capital is according to Michael Armstrong all investment made in order to establish a good employment relationship144. The biggest difference that we found is the level of consciousness of the possible impact a reward system could have on the employee\u2019s 141\nSmitt Raoul et al., (2002), p. 12 Svensson Arne, Wilhelmsson Lars, (1988), p. 67 143 Kohn Alfie, (1993) 144 Armstrong Michael, (2003), p. 8 142\nmotivation. SC1 showed a lack of knowledge in how they could gain from invest in their human capital through a reward and reward system. This is also shown in how the two companies use the salaries for their employees. With a flexible salary system the monthly paychecks can be used as part of a reward system with a flexible part that is linked to the performance of the employee145. Bravida makes use of a flexible salary system for all their employees as SC1 does not use the flexible salary system at all. SC1 does not offer their employees any monetary rewards that can be linked to their main job description, the reward were given on basis of activities done outside their day to day tasks. As in line with Norrmejerier this could improve the productivity, according to the theories, since the employees do not expect a reward and thereby work more efficient than the employees that were expecting something in return146. The respondent at Bravida states that the salary itself is not a reward but the theories means that it is the base in a reward but we take it for granted 147. However this statement from Bravida is in line with our interpretation, that without any salary the employees would not even show up for work and therefore should not be treated as a reward per se. We found that SC1 is almost without any clear and defined reward system and did not use this as a strategic tool to steer their employees to a specific behavior. Even if there were activities done that could be seen as fit into a reward system since they are meant to motivate as well as retain and attract their employees148. The thought behind it did not seem as a strategic choice, or as a steering tool, related to increasing the efficiency. 6.1.4 Similarities and differences between sectors The Construction sector and the two respondents companies, NCC and CC1, had the most noticeable similarity within a sector in their work in rewarding and motivating their employees. The most prominent difference within a sector was between SC1 and Bravida, regarding the use of a fully developed reward system. These differences were not only within the sector but also the most apparent difference between all sectors. SC1 did use some parts that could be related to a reward system but they were not a part of the organizational strategy in the same extent as for Bravida or any other companies in other sectors. All of the other companies, regardless of which sector they belonged to have a more deliberate system and have made extensive thoughts in how different rewards will work in the best interest of their organization. Norrmejerier and SC1 were those companies that used their reward system without any monetary rewards where Norrmejerier are more focused on the organizational culture as a whole. Furthermore, there were only two companies, Norrmejerier and SC1, which did not use a flexible salary system that were the most common arrangement throughout the three sectors. The most common denominator was also the monetary reward used in the flexible salary system throughout all three sectors that used this type of salary system.\nSmitt Raoul et al., (2002), p. 2 Kohn Alfie, (1993) 147 Svensson Arne, Wilhelmsson Lars, (1988) , p. 11 148 Armstrong Michael, (2003) p. 8 146\nContent theories 6.2.1 Construction Sector\nThe basic need of self-esteem in Maslow\u2019s hierarchy that is relevant for this study regards the human need of feeling as a part of a group and belongingness. At a work place these are actualized in the individual employees\u2019 need of feeling part of, not only the work team, but also the organization as a whole. The theories state that activities that encourage the creativity of harmony within the work place will give the organization a motivated staff. 149 The work regarding developing this basic need of a belongingness and team-spirit is highly developed for NCC and CC1. The so called off hours activities that the employees are offered to create a closer relationship between team members. For Hertzberg this type of reward fits with a hygiene factor where the employees need to have an inner feeling of well being is vital. As Hertzberg says this kind of reward will only avoid dissatisfaction within the employees it does not mean that the employees actually will improve their efficiency.150 The group-activities that both NCC and CC1 are doing through the year will, according to the theories, not affect the efficiency of the organization but will however avoid the individual performance to be inefficient. Hence, it is important for the organization to give feedback and create a good team-spirit to make sure that the work motivation does not drop to a level where the performance will suffer. NCC admits that their feedback is not as extensive as they might want and this could potentially have a negative impact on the employees\u2019 motivation. Their work in encouraging team building before each project starts are a good way to ensure that the, as Hertzberg puts it, hygiene factors for the employees are taken care of in terms of bonding with other employees 151. This is something that CC1 has not yet embraced but they work on team building in other ways. A main hygiene factor in terms of rewards is the need of feeling fairly treated where the reward is evenly spread between the employees. NCC and CC1 have a well developed system where it is easy for each employee to understand how they need to behave in order to obtain the reward. The fairness would then come from the fact that it is up to each employee to make sure that they behave in a way the leads to a reward. If you have the same outcome it will then generate the same reward. Enhancing the hygiene factors can help the companies to create a good job attitude for their employees who ultimately lead to an increased productivity and efficiency. The motivator factors in Hertzberg theory can be fulfilled through letting the employees be involved in their own work situation and be a part of the decision making. This is something that both NCC and CC1 are working through letting each employee be part of the overall planning of the project and letting their opinions be heard. This will then lead to a job satisfaction within the employees that is motivating. 6.2.2 Production Sector According to the respondent at Norrmejerier they do not consider themselves to have a reward system. We do not agree with that statement when comparing the theories and the gathered 149\nMaslow H. Abraham, (1954), pp.35 Herzberg Frederick et al., (1959), p. 113 151 Maslow H. Abraham, (1954),pp.35 150\ninformation in the empirical part. However, we make the assumption that the reason for our conflicting opinion might be founded in the interpretation that a reward must be monetary. We found that Norrmejerier has a highly develop reward system where they work mainly in creating an organizational culture that embrace the feeling of belongingness for the employee. This will create a good team spirit that is related to the theories of Maslow\u2019s self esteem theories but also the hygiene factors of Herzberg. Most of their rewards are focused on activities that are not related to the day to day work. They are merely a way to create an environment at the work place that not necessarily create job satisfaction or efficiency but make sure that there is no job dissatisfaction.152 The activities that Norrmejerier is offering for their employees outside the work place also contribute to nurturing the hygiene factors. By doing this Norrmejerier creates a motivating environment inside the company and stimulates the team spirit with intrinsic motivators. Herzberg suggests that by not using a monetary reward, which is an extrinsic reward, Norrmejerier has an increased chance to motivate their employees.153 PC1 is working to create belongingness and building the employees self esteem by involving their employees in the day to day work. Even if this might be more related to Herzberg\u2019s motivator factors this has also an impact on the self esteem that the hygiene factors aim to achieve.154 If the workers get the opportunity to influence their work together with their team members they need to work together and this might strengthen the team spirit. Hence, it is in line with the theories that say that motivation can be found when the organizational culture works toward a harmony in the work group.155 But an influence on their work will also contribute in enhancing the motivator factors for the employees and self actualization as well as the opportunity to develop and be promoted. 156 Both Norrmejerier and PC1 work with internal recruitments and promotions within the organization. They value the knowledge within the company and satisfy the need for self actualization in their employees by nurturing the motivator factors.157 This could potentially lead to an increase in, not only motivation, but also efficiency for the organization as a whole. PC1 uses rewards to motivate the motivator factors by rewarding good work when the team has produced a certain number of products within a specific time limit whereas Norrmejerier does not have any rewards connected to the production. They work in different way when satisfying the need for self actualization. And according to the theories both ways can generate efficiency since the monetary reward is only working up to a certain point.158 Hence, both companies try to satisfy the needs of their employees; both hygiene as well as motivator needs, but go about it in different ways. However, when a monetary reward is not being used then the feedback becomes extra important in order to truly motivate the employees to improve their performance. 6.2.3\nBravida shows a consciousness when it comes to the well being of the employees in terms of not focusing on processes that the employees finds dissatisfying. Their ambition to create a \u201cwe\u201d feeling rather than \u201cwe and them\u201d is something that is highly motivating and creates a team feeling. Bravida also base some additional payment as a bonus for their blue collar\nHerzberg Frederick et al, (1959) pp.113 Ibid, pp.116 154 Ibid, pp.116 155 Maslow H. Abraham, (1954), pp.35 156 Herzberg Frederick et al, (1959), p.113 157 Herzberg Frederick et al., (1959), pp.113 158 Ibid, pp.116 153\nworkers related to the outcome of a project and this is done to increase the commitment. This is done to enhance the \u201cwe\u201d feeling among the employees at Bravida. This is something that SC1 is also doing through their meetings where the employees can reflect upon important issues that regard their work. This is not only a way for the employees to work together but also a way to include the employees in the organizational work. These are aligning with the theories of self esteem and hygiene factors where bonding with the coworkers is important in order to avoid dissatisfaction.159 This is something positive for both companies when trying to be more efficient and motivate their employees. The inner needs in the employees are satisfied through the work that is done to bring the employees closer together. As for the self-actualization or motivator factors SC1 has a more distinct system where they are very focused on the internal promotion and education. This focus on the motivator factors are more distinguished than their work for satisfying the hygiene needs of their employees. The structures in both companies are according to the respondent fairly flat and this enables the employees to make them heard and this could also enhance the need of the employee to be a part of the organization. For SC1 the importance of portraying themselves as a serious company will give the employee a feeling of comfort with them as an employer. This is also contributing in satisfying the employees\u2019 need for a fair treatment160. Neither of the companies in the service sector responded that they work in any extend with their feedback to the employees during a work process. This could impact the self-esteem in the work itself in a negative way. This could have a potential negative impact on the work motivation, hence, will also have consequences on the overall performance of the organization. 6.2.4 Similarities and differences between sectors All sectors made an effort to satisfy the hygiene need of their employees through off -hour activities as well as nurturing a team spirit through enabling the possibility to impact their work situation. It was only Norrmejerier who stood out from the rest in the amount of effort they put into satisfying the hygiene need of their employees. CC1 only had a more developed scheme for this when it comes to the employees working outside their own home town. All sectors use meetings as a way to give feedback to their employees but the frequency of the meetings are not the same for all sectors. This has the effect that the feedback is not given to the employees as frequent either. The construction sector is the weakest sector when it comes to giving feedback and is merely focusing in feedback in the end of each project. In a direct opposite of the construction sector is PC1 which had meetings every day in order to update their employees of what were required of them. Besides for PC1 none of the respondents showed any extensive use of feedback in order to satisfying the motivator need. 6.3\nProcess theories 6.3.1 Construction Sector\nNCC as well as CC1 use goals-setting in terms of financial goals as well as others which are then distributed to the employees and it is up to them to achieve these goals. This follows the basic assumption of the goal-setting theory by Locke161. The monetary rewards offered by 159\nMaslow H. Abraham, (1954), pp.35 Herzberg Frederick et al, (1959), pp.113 161 Locke A. Edwin, (1996) pp.117-124 160\nboth NCC and CC1 are set with the notion that they will motivate their employees to strive for the goals and perform in a way that this is possible. But the feedback that the companies give their employees differs. Both companies take their overall goals, which can be seen as the external goal, and then break them down to region level or below and thereby transform them into internal goals. The theory means that the goals must be achievable yet still maintain some difficulty in order for the employee to find it motivating to reach them. By breaking down the goals to a more accessible level both companies work in line with the theories.162 By not making the goals as something that the workers cannot grasp, NCC and CC1 work towards a better motivation among the employees to make sure that they perform to their fullest. The concept of selfefficiency support this since it allowed the employee as an individual to see how and what he/she can contribute with163. The piece work contract as well as bonuses that NCC and CC1 use can be seen as rewards that are related to motivate the employees to reach the goals and also to repeat their actions. This is aligning with the theories by Locke who means that a monetary reward can enhance a person\u2019s commitment to the goal set by the organizations164. But if the goals are not obtainable the monetary reward has no bearing165. The work NCC and CC1 are doing by breaking down their overall goals makes sure that the reward will have an effect on the motivation and thereby increase the organizational efficiency. It is also important that the employee see the connection between their effort and the fall out of the reward they receive in order to motivate as well as the value the reward has to the employee 166. We have not, in the line with our perspective, any possibility to search for what kind of rewards the employees at NCC and CC1 value the highest. But according to Vroom the expectation of an outcome can be just as important. By giving feedback both NCC and CC1 try to give the employees input on where they are and how far they are from achieving the goal. Thereby making the process and the work needed more visible to employee. The employees must feel that they have the ability to actually reach the goal with their knowledge and skills167. Neither of the companies works in any extent with internal development in terms of education but offer internal recruitment and internal promotion. This is done to make sure that those who possess the skills are in a position that they can use it. We assume that this will ultimately lead to a more efficient company if every position within the organization is filled with the most skilled person. For the blue collar workers they can more easily measure if they work in a way that will lead them toward a specific reward since the result is more visible when constructing. For the white collar workers their effort that is needed to receive their bonus might be more abstract since their individual input does not have direct effect, but are mere a result of the input of many people. 6.3.2 Production Sector Both companies in the production are using goal-setting in order to enhance the productivity. PC1 as well as Norrmejerier use different communication channels in order to convey their goals to their employees. This makes the goals clearer and the employees can more easily 162\nLocke A.

Norrmejerier even brought in persons from outside the company to deliver the message of the organizational goal to the employees. This is, according to the theories, a strategic way of enhancing the motivation to reach the organizational goals.168 If the goals are not well understood by the employees they will have difficulties knowing how they can contribute in reaching them. Norrmejerier struggled, however, with none measurable goals where the employees did not know how to actually act or work to reach the goals. Norrmejerier\u00b4s work would then consist in making the goals both measurable and obtainable for the employees. The theories also states that if a goal are too difficult to reach, or even out of reach, as well as non specific the employee will not strive to reach them169. By acknowledging the fact that, as the example where, the phone operators would have days where there would be hardly any calls at all and alter the goals according to this. Norrmejerier made the goals more motivating for the phone operators to obtain them if they were set in a way, fast and efficient, that made more sense to them. Even if theories state that goals are important for creating motivation they will be de-motivating if they are not specific enough or not obtainable. The goals must also be accepted by the employees that are suppose to work towards them and the change that Norrmejerier did was a step in the right direction of creating self-efficiency were the phone operators felt that they had the capacity to reach the goals.170 The main focus on delivering the goals and how Norrmejerier formulate them to an acceptable level for the employees, Norrmejerier could potentially help them to avoid facing an agency-principal problem. This becomes extra important since the rewards that they offer are not in an extensive way linked to the blue collar workers main tasks. The reward that Norrmejerier offers must, according to the theories, enhance the employees\u2019 interest in the work itself so that the work is done in the way the principal intended or wants.171 PC1 has gone about this goal setting in a slightly different way. For them to assure that they both accept the goals and find them obtainable they involve the employees in the creation of the goals. They also alter the goals if the employees find them not good enough and how they would like the organization to improve them. This is a boost of the selfefficiency for the employees since PC1 never will set goals that are not in some way aligning with the employees. Norrmejerier does not have any monetary rewards that are involved in a direct way with the goal achieving for the employees. PC1 has linked their goal-setting to the rewards in a way that the end results are evaluated and the rewards are the set upon this basis. In line with the alternative given by the theories this helps PC1 to use their goal setting together with their rewards to stretch the productivity of the employees 172. All feedback is important when looking at goal-setting since there will not be any improvement in the employees without it173. PC1 has meetings every morning in order to inform the workers of the status for the day and what is needed during the day. This is a highly motivating action since the workers then know if they have done a good job or not. This will also give the employees a clearer picture how they are in the process of achieving the set goal. This will ultimately have a positive impact on the overall efficiency of the workers and thereby also the efficiency for PC1.\nLocke A. Edwin, (1996), pp.117-124 Ibid, pp. 117-124 170 Appelbaum H.

Edwin, (1996), pp.117-124 169\n6.3.3 Service Sector Like most companies in our study, both Bravida and SC1 try to break down their goals to a level where everyone in the company comprehends them. This make the external goal more obvious for the employees since it comes down to what is needed to achieve the internal goal.174 By breaking down the goal both Bravida and SC1 can match the goals to the knowledge of their workers.175 This can be seen as a clearer need in the case of Bravida who has different skills within their work force. Thereby they need to make sure that every skilled work group gets a goal that fits their occupation. SC1 uses their information meeting in an extensive way to make sure that their employees fully understand what it takes in order to achieve their goals. We can assume that this is extra important since they do not use any monetary rewards in order to motivate their employees. For example, one of their goals is to cut the number of sick leaves they have. One assumption made here is that you are sick regardless of what money you are being offered and SC1 needs to find a way to reach the goal in other ways. SC1 has frequent meetings in order to make sure that the employees fully understand where they are compared to the set goal. This is in line with the theories that suggest that without the feedback the employee will not strive to be better176. SC1 has no monetary rewards linked to reaching their goals as Bravida has in some sense with their piece work contracts. For SC1 this could actually work in their favor since the theories suggest that monetary reward will alter the focus, and not always in a positive way. If the employees are too focused on the reward and those activities tied to the reward, other task will be seen as less important even if they are related to the goal177. By not offering any monetary rewards SC1 can possible avoid the employees to get unfocused in a higher way than Bravida can. This is however not measurable in our study but indications in the theories say that this is a positive outcome, if it works. According to the agency theory the lack of control that a reward system imposes might put SC1 in a position where the employees, the agent, do not work in the way that the management, the principal, wants178. So regardless of the benefits the theories might suggest that SC1 gets from not offering their employees a reward, or even having a fully developed system, could create an agency-principal problem.179 The lack of rewards might in form of the moral hazard problem180 if the goals for the employees and the company are conflicting181. Bravida uses a checkup system where they have the ability to embrace all factors in a project and make the decision on the reward based on all of them. This is according to Locke one way of guaranteeing that the reward will have the effect that is intended182. We make the assumption that this kind o measurement will make the employees more motivated since they are granted in a more extent way that the reward will be fairly set. Fair treatment is one of the hygiene factors that is a basic need for the employee to avoid dissatisfaction. 6.3.4 Similarities and differences between sectors The most prominent similarity is the way all companies brake down their overall goals to a more obtainable level for the employees. This is done in accordance with the theories that 174\nLocke A. Edwin, (1996), pp.117-124 Ibid, pp.117-124 176 Ibid, pp. 117-124 177 Ibid, pp.117-124 178 Matsumura Ryohei, Kijima Kyoichi, Nakano Bumpei, Inohara Takehiro, (2001) 179 Yu Wai Tat Billy, Ming Wai To (2008) 180 Matsumura Ryohei, Kijima Kyoichi, Nakano Bumpei, Inohara Takehiro, (2001) 181 Eisenhardt M. Kathleen (1989) 182 Locke A. Edwin, (2004) pp. 130-133 175\nsuggest that this procedure make it more motivating for the employee to strive towards the goal. All sectors used similar channels to distribute the goals even if the frequency of the number of times this was done differed. The production sector, with Norrmejerier and PC1, showed that they put in more effort in making sure that the organizational goals were accessible to their employees that compared to the other sectors and companies. Norrmejerier went beyond meetings and hired outside professionals to distribute the goals. PC1 had meetings in an extent frequency that no other company in this study had. We found that this was the prime difference between the sectors. There were also only Norrmejerier and SC1 that did not use any monetary reward in linkage to create motivation in order to achieve organizational goals. The fact that they did not use any rewards that were linked to the work itself might inflict agency-principal problems for both Norrmejerier and SC1 if the system is not fully developed. We could, however, find that there were some similarities in the way all sectors rewarded their employees in order to improve the efficiency and setting their goals. Effectiveness and Efficiency 6.4\nPurpose with a reward system 6.4.1 Construction Sector\nBoth of the companies in the construction sector said that their primary purpose with a reward system is to help reach the organizational goals. CC1 also pointed out that motivation and increased efficiency is part of the purpose. Even though NCC did not point out these latter aspects we can still assume that they are part of their purpose since they consider a reward system to help reach the goals. Therefore the purpose might also be to increase the motivation among the employees in order for them to work towards the goals but also to increase the efficiency within the organization. Therefore we can say that both CC1 and NCC have created a reward system where everyone within the organization is striving towards the same goal, which also is in accordance with the theory. Moving on to the individual goals and how they are linked to the organizational goals within each company. The only way that the individual goals of the employees are taken into consideration within the two companies is by providing the employees with career options. Further, when this question was asked the respondents immediately thought of career opportunities, and they did not seem to realize that there can be other individual goals as well depending on at what stage in the life the employee is. However, both companies did communicate the goals to the employees and the goals were also broken down into smaller goals in order for the employees to be able to reach them. According to the Goal Setting Theory this is a good way for the employer to take the individual goals into consideration183. When the employees have the opportunity to work towards the organizational goals, then they can at the same time put up individual goals for themselves184. Further, since both companies are taken the individual goals into consideration to some extent, it shows that the companies are keen in fostering a work climate where the employees are encouraged to be goal oriented. As the theory says, if the employees have the possibility to reach both individual as well as personal goals, then the efficiency within the organization will increase185. According to the theory there are six steps that an organization should take into consideration in order to\nHughes Charles L., (1965), Passim Ibid, Passim 185 Ibid, Passim 184\nbecome more effective, which is part of linking individual and organizational goals186. First of all both companies let the employees take part of the company\u2019s vision and mission, this we can assume since the goals of the organization is communicated to the employees. Secondly, the overall goals of the organization are being broken down into smaller goals in order for the employees to be able to reach them, but also for the goals to make sense and third the subgoals are communicated to the right division. Only CC1 has taken the fourth step, which is about helping the individual to set up individual goals. This is done by a competence development plan, which is something that NCC does not have. The organization should also be able to modify organizational goals, which we again can assume that both companies are doing, due to environmental and market uncertainties. However none of the respondents in this sector said that they remind the employees about the organizational goals on a regular basis. So basically it can be presumed that the companies in the construction sector are trying to create an effective organization by taking the individual goals into consideration, even though they might not realize themselves to what extent they are taken them into consideration. Further CC1 seems to be one step ahead since they have included a competence development plan for their employees. However both organizations could improve their communication of the goals so that it will occur on a more regular basis. 6.4.2 Production Sector PC1 states that the purpose with their reward system is to make sure that the employees can affect their work but also to get feedback while it for Norrmejerier was to create work satisfaction at the work place. This shows that PC1 is trying to motivate their employees since they considered feedback to be a motivation factor. Therefore we can make the assumption that they want to increase their efficiency and effectiveness within the company, which is the main purpose with a reward system according to the theories. As for Norrmejerier, they do not seem to consciously take help of a reward system to increase their effectiveness and efficiency. They consider a reward system to be a tool for creating a pleasant work climate, which indirect will lead to higher motivation among the employees. Therefore we can make the assumption that Norrmejerier will increase their effectiveness and efficiency since motivated employees, even without rewards, will have a positive impact on the productivity187. When it comes to the individual goals both companies have development discussions and since PC1 has meetings so frequently the employees\u2019 individual goals will be discusses more often. Further, both companies were also thinking about career options when the question regarding individual goals was asked. Again it shows that the employer might not realize that there can be other individual goals that are not necessary linked to advancing in the company hierarchy. Both companies seem to take individual goals into consideration, at least as long as they will benefit the company as well. This shows that the companies see the importance with trying to consent the individual goals when possible in order to increase the motivation and efficiency among the employees, which is in accordance with the theory188. Other things that show that the two production companies are trying to link individual and organizational goal is the fact that the goals are communicated to the employees, who will 186\nHughes Charles L., (1965), p. 99 Kohn Alfie,(1993) 188 Hughes Charles L., (1965), Passim 187\nlead to that the employees will be aware of the vision and mission of the company. Further both companies are breaking down the goals into smaller ones which will be communicated to the right division which will make it possible for the employees to reach the organizational goals and at the same time put up individual goals for themselves. In both companies the individual goals can be put up during the development discussions. Further we can assume that both companies are modifying their goals during the year due to environmental uncertainties. The goals seem to be communicated regularly at both Norrmejerier and at PC1, even if the white collar workers at PC1 do not get it as often and obvious as the blue collar workers. One reason for this might be that they consider it more important to update the blue collar workers since their work is closer connected to the production, hence, also the productivity. Both companies seem to take individual goals into consideration to a very high extent, and the employees have every opportunity to put up goals for themselves. It shows that the two companies are aware of the importance of listening to the employees\u2019 goals and try to let them achieve them and grow and develop, mainly professionally. One reason for why the two companies in this sector are taking individual goals into consideration to this extent might be that they often want to recruit internally. Even though the career options at Norrmejerier might not be so many, it still seems like they want to keep their knowledge in the company. By taking the individual goals into consideration the possibility of the employees to stay within the company will increase but so will also the effectiveness and efficiency which is in accordance with the theories189. 6.4.3 Service Sector The purpose with a reward system differs a lot between the two companies in the service sector; Bravida\u2019s purpose is to earn more money while SC1 has no fully developed reward system but they consider it to be a tool to increase the job satisfaction. This tells us that Bravida is aware of the affects that a reward system can have on the company, which is to increase the effectiveness and efficiency, while SC1 might not have fully grasped that a reward system is a management measurement instrument. SC1 has, as well as Norrmejerier, a reward system that does not link the rewards to their main job. In the case with Norrmejerier this could, according to the theories, still motivate and increase the productivity. SC1 on the other hand has not put the same amount of effort in other motivating activities beside meetings and feedback. We make the assumption that in order for the theories of not rewarding and still be productive to be accurate in the case of SC1 they need to go a step further. Individual goals are taken into consideration via development discussions within both companies. As for the six steps that are described in goal setting theory, both these companies are dealing with step one to five, while neither of them is updating the employees regularly about the goals, this is usually done once a year. This shows that they are trying to take the individual goals into consideration to some extent even though there can be improvements, at least regarding step six. Since they are doing this it shows that they want to have goal oriented employees, even though Bravida at least points out that the individual goals will only be taken into consideration if they will benefit the company. A company that consists of goal oriented employees will increase the efficiency and effectiveness which seems to be a goal within the companies.\nHughes Charles L., (1965), Passim\n6.4.4 Similarities and dissimilarities between sectors It seems that there are some differences between the companies regarding the purpose with a reward system. In the construction sector the purpose is to increase the effectiveness and efficiency, which is the only sector where both respondents have stated this. The construction sector seems to have worked more thoroughly with developing a reward system with the purpose that it is a management measurement instrument. Regarding the individual goals the production sector is working most sufficient with this, while both the construction sector and service sector were on the same level and hence could improve this part. One reason for this might be that internal recruitment is more common within the production sector than it is within the other two sectors. 6.5\nGroundwork of a reward system 6.5.1 Construction Sector\nBoth companies are rewarding output instead of input. We consider piece work contract to be output since the workers will get a bonus based on the final result of the project. And the white collar workers will get a bonus also based on result so therefore we can say that the companies in this sector do not seem to take environmental uncertainties into consideration when creating groundwork for their reward system. However this type of groundwork is a higher motivation factor for the employees, according to the theories190, and therefore we can assume that the companies are more interested in keeping their workers motivated rather than taking environmental uncertainties into account. Further both companies use pay for performance as a groundwork for their reward system. They base their rewards on piece work contract, the result of the company and/or division and on achieving the organizational goals. Both companies have pay for performance at individual level since it is linked to the position that an employee has in the organization. The blue collar workers are bound by the collective contract agreement while the white collar workers can affect their salary and bonuses bases on the position in the company. Both companies also have pay for performance at the team level, which for example is piece work contract among the blue collar workers, or a bonus to a division that consists of white collar workers. Since both companies are using pay for performance as a groundwork of their reward system it shows that they have realized that it will lead to increased performance, both for the employees as well as for the organization as whole, which is in accordance with the theory191. Further both companies communicate their reward system to the employees. This is important so that the employees know what is expected from them in order to get a reward. NCC mentioned the importance of the goals to be measurable while it is not something that CC1 mentioned. However we can assume that CC1 also has goals that can be measurable since the basis for a reward is the same at both companies. Again NCC said that they reward performance that have lead to that organizational goal have been met, which is always economic results. CC1 did not mention a specific behaviour that is rewarded but at least among the blue collar workers we can say that they will reward employees at a construction place if the project is doing better than planned. So in a sense, effectiveness and efficiency is a required behaviour. None of the companies have pointed out that the groundwork of the reward system is set so that the employees can reach the goals. However since both companies are breaking down the organizational goals into sub goals we can still believe that 190 191\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 646-647 Durham Cathy C., Bartol Kathryn M., (2000), p. 150\nthe goals are reachable at least so some extent. It seems that both companies are well aware that pay for performance will lead to increased performance and the companies seem to be working with their rewards in a similar way. None of the companies have a non financial groundwork for the reward system which shows that the companies in the construction sector are interested in reaching economic results by increasing the performance among the employees. 6.5.2 Production Sector PC1 is using both input and output as a basis for their reward system, the output is the number of items produced while the input is the time to produce them. Norrmejerier on the other hand is only rewarding for input, this since an employee can get extra money if he/she has the knowledge to do multiple jobs at Norrmejerier. It seems that these companies are taking environmental uncertainties into consideration and hence want to give the employees the best presumptions to reach the goals even though environmental changes might occur, which according to the theory is preferable192. PC1 is basing the reward system on pay for performance. At the collective side the rewards will be based on the performance of the team, thus team level. On the individual level it will be possible for the white collar workers when they negotiate about their salary. Further the company is also making sure that the employees know on what basis a reward will be received. This, since the goals are communicated to the employees but also since the unions have been involved when developing the reward system for the blue collar workers. The goals are measurable and the employees have the possibility to reach the goals in order to get a reward. So this company have taken all aspects into account that the theory suggests in order to use pay for performance to the fullest193. Norrmejerier on the other hand do not base their reward system on pay for performance as much as PC1 does. At an individual level pay for performance exists within the company since the white collar workers can affect their salary if they do a great job, but then it is just a question about increasing the base pay not to receive a bonus. There is no pay for performance at the team level since no monetary reward will be handed out to the employees if they do a great job. Norrmejerier is focusing more on non financial groundwork for the reward system, and mainly on employee satisfaction194. They do, however, use both financial and non financial rewards as a mean to motivate and increase job satisfaction. Having employees that are satisfied is one of the most important factors at Norrmejerier and therefore it is possible that they have decided not to base the reward system on pay for performance even though it would lead to improved performance throughout the organization195. It could also be that Norrmejerier does not use pay for performance since they do not have a well developed reward system, according to the respondent, and therefore they do not see the reward system as a management measurement instrument and have chosen not to develop it further and make use of the advantages that pay for performance will bring. However, even though they have not made use of pay for performance to the extent that PC1 has, Norrmejerier still considers it to be important that the goals are measurable. When using pay for performance it is vital to have measurable goals196. For Norrmejerier the ability to measure 192\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 646-647 Durham Cathy C., Bartol Kathryn M., (2000), pp. 153-155 194 Arvidsson Per, (2005), p. 19 195 Durham Cathy C., Bartol Kathryn M., (2000), pp. 150-155 196 Ibid, pp. 150-155 193\nmight not be a basis for the rewards rather it might be a tool to see how well the goals are being met. Even though both companies are in the same sector we can see that the basis for a reward system is very different. We believe that one reason for this is because they have different purposes with their reward system which leads to different groundwork of the rewards. If Norrmejerier would consider a reward system as a management measurement instrument in order to increase the effectiveness and efficiency than they would most likely also have a solid groundwork for the rewards, like PC1 has. 6.5.3 Service Sector Both companies within the service sector have a financial groundwork to their reward system and hence both are rewarding outputs rather than inputs. Therefore we can say that none of the companies are taking uncertainties in the environment into account and is focusing more on the motivation among the employees. This is something that will be higher when rewarding based on output.197 Moving on to pay for performance, which both companies are basing their rewards on, both have them on an individual level. At Bravida this is possible sine they can negotiate their own salary among the white collar workers and therefore it is linked to the position in the company. At SC1 the individual level is noticeable since the employees can get a bonus if they can sell more to their customers that is additional to the main service. At the team level, this is something that only Bravida has. Further the employees within both companies seem to be aware of the activities and behaviours that will generate a reward, this since the goals are being communicated throughout the organizations. Both companies also state the importance that the gaols are measurable and Bravida points out that it is important that the employees can reach the goals otherwise the groundwork of a reward system has not been developed enough. Due to this it seems that both companies are on the right path when creating groundwork\u2019s for their reward system, even though SC1 has not taken into consideration the importance that the employees need to have the skills to reach the goals and therefore receive a reward. Pay for performance will lead to increased performance within the organizations which is something that both respondents will take advantage from198. However it seems that since Bravida has a more developed reward system then the basis for a reward system at Bravida is also more though through than within SC1. None of the respondents are using non financial measurements as a groundwork which indicates that the companies are keener in rewarding the employees for their efforts and outcomes. 6.5.4 Similarities and dissimilarities between sectors First of all both the construction sector and the service sector is rewarding output instead of input while it is a mixture in one of the production companies and one is only rewarding based on input. This shows that the two former sectors are more interested in the result rather than on the effort that has been put into the work. One reason for why this might be is because in the construction sector, it will cost the company a lot of money for every day the project is delayed. This will put pressure on the companies. As for the service sector customer satisfaction can be seen as output and something that is crucial within the service industry. Why the production sector is focusing more on input might be, as PC1 said, they are so 197 198\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 646-647 Durham Cathy C., Bartol Kathryn M., (2000), pp. 150-155\ndependent on technology and therefore things might go wrong. Therefore the production sector might take uncertainties into account to a higher extent since when dealing with technology there will always be the possibility that the machinery at the factors stop working which will have a negative effect on the production. Of course uncertainties will occur in every sector but as for technology, the other sectors are not as dependent on it as the production sector. Pay for performance is something that all sectors have, even though it can be to different extents. This shows that it might be something that is being commonly used within companies in every sector. Therefore we can conclude that it is something that the companies are finding useful and something that actually will increase the performance among the employees and the organization as whole. 6.6\nTypes of rewards 6.6.1 Construction Sector\nBoth NCC and CC1 offer monetary rewards in form of bonuses and piece work contracts to their employees. These monetary rewards are linked to the performance of an individual and/or team and therefore we can say that both companies are using the monetary rewards according to the theories, i.e. the monetary rewards need to be linked to the performance of an individual or team otherwise this type of reward will have a decreased motivation affect199. This shows that both companies know how to deal with these types of monetary rewards. Further, the companies also offer other types of financial rewards to their employees for example additional parenting allowance. This is not linked to the performance or efforts of the employees, rather it is offered to all employees. Both companies offer their employees non financial rewards even though financial rewards, and foremost monetary rewards, are the most dominating ones. The theory says that money is no longer the number one motivation factor and that employees want opportunities to grow and to develop their skills200. Even though the companies have mainly monetary rewards they still seem to provide their employees with opportunities to develop and improve their skills since internal recruiting are important to both companies. This shows that the companies are aware about what employees want today and have tried to mix monetary rewards with opportunities to develop their skills and abilities, which is the second and third step when categorizing non monetary rewards201. This sector is focusing mainly on extrinsic rewards but we can also distinguish intrinsic rewards as well. The interviews with the respondent showed that the employees are encouraged to take part in different planning processes which we consider to be an intrinsic reward. This will increase the motivation among the employees when they will feel part of different processes202. Even though extrinsic rewards are dominating the fact that they try to foster a climate where the employees can receive intrinsic rewards as well is very positive. However the companies should try to create more balance between the two since extrinsic rewards have a tendency to push aside the intrinsic rewards203. 199\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997) pp. 663- 667 and Hughes Charles L., (1965), p. 55, 81 Manas Todd M., Graham Michael Dennis, (2003), pp. 3-4 201 Ibid, p. 5 202 Atkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), 652- 653 203 Frey Bruno S., (1997), p. 2 200\n6.6.2 Production Sector There are some differences between the two companies within this sector. PC1 is focusing a lot on feedback and considers this to be one of the most important rewards. Beside that they also have bonuses for the blue collar workers. Based on the empirical findings we can say that this company has a balance between non monetary and monetary rewards. However it should be noted that when they were developing the bonus system the main purpose had always been to develop a reward system that consisted of a bonus. This tells us, again, that the company considers monetary rewards to be more motivating than non monetary. Thus the company is using the bonus system in accordance with the theory, the bonuses is linked to the performance of the team204. Norrmejerier who also seem to have a balance between financial and non financial rewards, however the main point with all rewards seem to be to create a work climate that enables an increasing job satisfaction, i.e. intrinsic rewards. PC1 is also trying to foster an intrinsic work climate by letting the employees be part in different planning processes, however the intrinsic atmosphere do not seem to be as visible as it is at Norrmejerier. This could be linked to the fact that Norrmejerier\u2019s purpose with a reward system is to create a pleasant working environment for the employees as hence the intrinsic spirit will be more visible. Intrinsic rewards lead to higher motivation according to the theory and since both companies make use of intrinsic rewards we assume that the motivational level is rather high for both companies205. Norrmejerier\u2019s use of a more visible tone in their intrinsic rewards could potentially have a higher motivational effect. 6.6.3 Service Sector There are many similarities between the companies within this sector. Both have monetary rewards in form of bonuses and non monetary rewards like health care and flexible working hours, where the first one is considered to be financial reward while the other one is a non financial reward. Both are dealing with the bonuses as the theory suggests linking them to the performance of the employee /employees206. As for the non monetary rewards, i.e financial and non financial rewards, both Bravida and SC 1 are working a lot with opportunities for the employees to improve their skills and to have the opportunity to change jobs within the company. This is a good way for the companies to mix monetary rewards with non monetary rewards, especially since the theory states that employees today want to be provided with opportunities to improve skills and grow both professionally and personally207. This indicates that the companies are aware about the wishes of the employees today and they want to provide opportunities to the employees that are interested in this. Further this is a way for the companies to take the employees different wishes into account and try to provide them with different things that motivate the employees208. As for the intrinsic and extrinsic rewards, we can say that extrinsic rewards are dominating within both companies. However Bravida seems to have made an effort in creating an organizational environment where there is a possibility to intrinsic rewards and motivation. Bravida is trying to create a \u201cwe\u201d spirit within the company something that will lead to that 204\nHughes Charles L., (1965), pp. 55, 81 Sj\u00f6berg Lennart, Lind Fredrik,(1994), p. 65 206 Hughes Charles L., (1965), p. 55, 81 207 Manas Todd M., Graham Michael Dennis, (2003), pp. 3-5 208 Atkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997) p. 651 205\nthe employees will relate more positively to the work and the company, which in the end will lead to higher motivation among the employees209. Further we can see that SC1 is also working with enabling intrinsic rewards and motivation for their employees through their theme meeting. Both companies are working in a similar way to create an organizational environment where the employees will feel intrinsic motivation. 6.6.4 Similarities and differences between the sectors Every sector has a mix of monetary and non monetary rewards and in every sector extrinsic rewards are dominating. The construction and production sectors seem to be the two that are working most sufficient with intrinsic motivation and rewards, and Norrmejerier is the one that is doing the best job in fostering a working environment that enables this. Further every sector has gotten the idea that employees today are seeking for opportunities, which is something that each sector is providing their employees. This indicates that the companies are aware about the employees\u2019 wishes and are trying to provide them with different rewards and solutions that will motivate them to continue to work within the company. 6.7\nReceiver of a reward system\nBefore we begin with the analysis of the receiver of a reward system we will start by making some distinctions regarding team rewards. Team rewards can be given either to all employees within the organization, or to a whole division, or to specific teams within a division. 6.7.1 Construction Sector Within the construction sector the rewards are given to on a team basis, an individual cannot get a reward if the group has not performed well. The type of team we are referring to here is either a division or specific teams within a division. NCC however said that the rewards are given to individuals but is based on the outcome of the team, and thus the whole team will receive a reward. Therefore the rewards are on team basis. Rewarding teams is according to the theory important since it will encourage the employees to keep on delivering high quality outcomes210. Further since these companies are rewarding teams it seems that they have realized the synergy effect of teams and that it is something that will benefit the company211. Further it seems that the companies also have taken into account that when rewarding teams, everyone or every team that has contributed to the outcomes will be rewarded 212. This assumption we can make since NCC said that if the team has not done a good job then no one will get a reward and among the blue collar workers at both companies the piece work contract will be given to every employee at the project. By rewarding teams like the two companies are doing, it shows that the reward system is fair, and most important that the employees consider it to be fair213. There are also some rewards that are given to all employees within the organization and that are for example gym cards, healthcare and additional parent allowance. This is something that everyone gets without having to make any accomplishments, being an employee at the company is enough. 209\nAtkinson Anthony A. et al., (1997), pp. 652- 653 and Sj\u00f6berg Lennart, Lind Fredrik, (1994), p. 65 Hoffman Jody R., Gogelberg Steven G., (1998), Passim 211 Dimmlich Robert Park, (1999), p. 32 212 Hoffman Jody R., Gogelberg Steven G., (1998), Passim 213 Ibid, Passim 210\nThe only time individual rewards occur within this sector is when negotiating about the individual salary, this since the salary is linked to the position in the company. According to the theories the most effective is to combine individual and team rewards214, which is something the companies have done. We consider these companies to be well aware about the affects rewards can have when rewarding individual and rewards and it seems that the decision whether to reward individuals or teams are well thought through by the companies. 6.7.2 Production Sector Both companies within this sector have rewards that are given to all employees, for example gym cards, healthcare. When it comes to team rewards on a lower lever, that is one division or a team at one division, both companies have that as well. PC1 has the bonus system to the blue collar workers and Norrmejerier has the opportunity for different divisions to do something fun that is connected to a lecture about the organization or similar. Both companies try to be fair in their reward system, and they are dealing with team rewards as the theory suggests, i.e. they are giving the reward to everyone or every team that has earned it 215. This sector also sees the value in rewarding teams and it seems that they have realized that the outcomes of a team are higher than the outcomes of an individual 216. Based on the empirical findings we can see that Norrmejerier seems to take it very seriously that all rewards are equally distributed within the organization. Again we can see that they are more about fostering a peasant work climate where the team spirit is high and there will be no envy between the employees. In this sector, as well as in the construction sector, individual salary negotiation is the only time when rewards are given to individuals. However none of the respondents in this sector said that the individual salary is linked to the position one has in the company and therefore it might be a problem if someone will get a raise based on group performance but the group will not get anything. This is a bit difficult to speculate in this since we do not know what they base their individual salaries on. The companies should be aware about the risks if an individual will benefit from the group behaviour in this way, since the employees will consider the reward system to be unfair, which will lead to that the reward system will not have a positive effect on the employees anymore. It is okay if an individual will get a raise based on team performance, but it is crucial that the other team members will receive a reward as well. This sector also has a mixture of both individual and team rewards, and as studies have shown, it is the most effective one217. 6.7.3 Service Sector As for the other sectors, the service sector also has team rewards, both to all employees, which for example can be gym card and healthcare, and to smaller teams, like bonuses. Further it seems that they are giving the rewards in a fair way to the teams, everyone that has been involved within a top performance will receive a reward, which is in accordance with the theory218. The fact that they have team rewards indicated that they are aware about the\nKerrin M\u00e1ire, Oliver Nick, (2002), Passim Hoffman. Jody R., Gogelberg. Steven G. (1998) Passim 216 Dimmlich Robert Park, (1999), p. 32 217 Kerrin M\u00e1ire, Oliver Nick, (2002), Passim 218 Hoffman Jody R., Gogelberg Steven G, (1998), Passim 215\nadvantages a team work will bring compared to individual work219. As the theory says, team performance is higher than individual performance220. Again these two companies have an individual salary system for the white collar workers, which mean that they negotiate their salary. This is an individual reward, but as was discussed in the previous sector, the bases for the individual salary is not known and therefore the same problems can occur in this sector as within the previous one. This section does also have a combination of individual and team rewards, which is the most sufficient one221. 6.7.4 Similarities and differences between sectors All three sectors do have a combination of individual and team rewards but it is only within the construction sector that we could say that the individual rewards are fair. This since we do not know the basis for the individual rewards within the other sectors. It would be unfair for us to make a conclusion that the construction sector has the most sufficient balance between the receivers of a reward system when we do not have enough information about the individual salaries in the other two sectors. However there seems to be a lot of similarities within the sectors which indicates that companies within all sectors are dealing with both individual and team rewards and they all seem to be aware of the advantages that team rewards will bring.\nKaplan Robert S., Norton David P., (2001), p. 268 Dimmlich Robert Park, (1999) p. 32 221 Kerrin M\u00e1ire, Oliver Nick, (2002), Passim 220\n7. Final Conclusion Before we will begin with discussing the conclusions we have found in this thesis we will start by once again state our research question: In what way are organizations using a reward system to motivate the employees to work in the best interest of the organization and reach organizational goals? We have found some similarities as well as differences between the three sectors that are the groundwork for this thesis. The main conclusions that answer our research question will be discussed by comparing the sectors. The comparison will be made with the basis of the summary model of our theoretical framework that holds the four dimension of a reward system and how they all influence motivation. The setup of the dimensions will create efficiency and effectiveness in the course of motivation through satisfying needs and setting goals. Our conclusion will also be made on the basis of the summary table of our analysis (appendix 3) and relate the analysis to the theoretical model.\nFigure 7:1 Linking motivation to effectiveness and efficiency (The figure is our own modification based on the original.

Tv\u00e5 fallstudier om effekter av bel\u00f6ningssystem som styrmedel\u201d, Handelsh\u00f6gskolan i Stockholm, EFI, Ekonomiska Forskningsinstitutet.)\nEven if the spoken purpose of the use or in some case no use, of a reward system we make the conclusion that all sectors in the end have the aim to reach their goals. This is proven by the fact that all break down their goals into sub goals and have continuous meetings and other channels to distribute them to their employees. The construction sector and the respondents were found to be unanimous when compared to all sectors in the study in terms of their choice of reward system. Bravida, even if in the service sector, provides services to companies in the construction sector and has similarities with both NCC and CC1 in their reward system. Based on this we make the conclusion that the construction sector has a tradition in their choice of reward and seems to influence other sectors that are involved to follow. The construction sector and other sectors that do business towards the construction sector are mainly focusing 74\non the end result when rewarding. This is also showed in their lack of providing feedback during the ongoing processes. When the feedback is given when a process or activity is done, the feedback will not have any impact on the result since it has already been accomplished. We therefore make the conclusion that the construction sector shows a highly one-tracked mind when choosing their reward system and tradition seem to have a great impact on their choices. In the service sector we found a great dissimilarity between the companies where Bravida, even if seen as one-tracked, has a more developed reward system than SC1. SC1 showed a great lack of connection between the organizational strategy and the reward. Still, we consider that those parts that SC1 used are linked with the purpose of controlling behaviour and that this is one of the purposes with a reward system. The reward motivates a wanted behaviour that ultimately leads to achieving an organizational goal. As was described in the empirical findings SC1 does not have a lot of capital to put on rewards. This could potentially be one of the reasons that the service sector was so diverse in their use of a reward system. However, Norrmejerier showed a good example of how a reward system could be implemented without offering monetary rewards. This conclusion is drawn on the basis that the only monetary reward that they offered concerned the flexible salary system of their white collar workers. We also found a great dissimilarity in the production sector were Norrmejerier stood out in their use of a reward system. PC1 had a result focused reward, just as seen in the construction sector. The main difference between PC1 and the companies in the construction sector were that PC1 puts a great effort in the motivational arrangement during the process. Both companies in the production sector had their focus on the employees but through different means. The similarity lies in their involvement of the employees and how they take care of their individual goals to stimulate motivation. The production sector, compared to the other two sectors, had a more developed use of the individual goals in order to be more efficient. Further, we can also state that if an organization has a well developed reward system and considers it to be a steering instrument in order to increase the efficiency, effectiveness and to reach goals then the groundwork for it will also be more thoroughly developed. The groundwork for the reward system were, however, slightly different between the sectors. Only one company rewarded the input rather than the output. Therefore our conclusion is that this is due to that the main rewards given had a monetary base. We also make the conclusion that this can be explained by the uncertainties that is involved in offering money in beforehand. In our analysis we showed that Norrmejerier and SC1 could potentially face agency-principal problems without any rewards linked to the work itself. We draw the conclusion that Norrmejerier uses their system in a more deliberate way than SC1 as therefore have a higher chance to avoid any moral hazard problem. Due to the lack of a developed reward system SC1 cannot benefit from the control that a reward system gives i.e. SC1 lacks in control over the work toward the organizational goals. Every sector has a balance between financial and non financial rewards and in every sector the extrinsic rewards are dominating. Every sector is doing attempts to create a working climate where intrinsic rewards and motivation will be possible. But Norrmejerier is the company where this is the most visible. Within the construction sector it seems as monetary rewards are the most important ones, this since when asking them about what types of rewards they have they were only focusing on monetary rewards. Therefore we can say that within this sector they still consider money to be the number one motivation factor. Only one company in our study used non-financial measurement for the reward and we can thereby 75\nmake the assumption that financial measurement is the most common measurement for all sectors. Further, every sector is dealing with both individual and team rewards and every company is using pay for performance as a groundwork for their reward system, even though to which extent differs somewhat. In the empirical findings we could however see that all respondents saw an individual reward as something that could potentially be given into a team. We find this as contradictive since an individual reward should be given to a specific person for an individual performance. We argue that all companies mainly used team rewards and that an individual reward was only given through salary negotiations. This is based on that these types of rewards are strongly connected to the person\u2019s performance alone.\n8. Suggestion for further research When conducting this thesis we came across topics that were related to our subject matter but did not fit into our study. We consider those topics as important aspects when studying reward systems and therefore further studies will be required. The first topic consists of the existence of the reward system. All sectors made use of different reward systems and defined them in separate ways. This indicates that there is no general reward system that fits all companies. For further research we would suggest a research that illuminates what impact a change in the reward system would have for the different sectors and the potential efficiency. It would also be interesting to study how the companies would react in terms of productivity if the reward system where removed all together. This could help different sectors to optimize their use of a reward system as a control and steering instrument. In the end the companies can improve their efficiency and productivity with the help of a more strategic use of a reward system. The next topic regards the intended outcome of a reward system. One of the respondents said that he was not sure that the system that was being used worked in the direction that was intended when implemented. Therefore, our suggestion for further research consists of a study of the different companies and sectors and if they are receiving the thought outcome with their reward system. This goes hand in hand with the companies\u2019 capacity to maximize their efficiency. This could be extra helpful for those companies who work in a highly competitive climate.\nList of References Appelbaum H.

That\u2019s the message from Mayor Bill Peduto after this weekend\u2019s mess left behind after the Luke Bryan concert at Heinz Field.\nPeduto is currently in Denmark, but Chief of Staff Kevin Acklin held a press conference about the clean-up effort Monday morning.\nBoth indicated that they want this to be a safe and clean city and that includes major events. They also said the city should not have to bear the financial responsibility for \u201cpoorly managed\u201d events.\nMore than 50,000 flocked to Heinz Field for the Luke Bryan show Saturday night. By all accounts, it was a great show and there were no major issues reported from inside the stadium.\nHowever, outside of the stadium was a different story.\nAccording to a statement from Peduto, Pittsburgh Public Safety officials responded to over 300 concert-related incidents.\n\u201cPittsburgh Police issued 37 non-traffic citations (20 for scalping; 10 for public urination; six for disorderly conduct; and one for public intoxication); made at least seven arrests; broke up 15 fights and answered 154 calls to 911. City medics responded to 100 calls to 311 and made 34 transports to hospitals,\u201d the statement said.\nALCO Parking took care of the parking inside of their lots. However, the city picked up the tab for cleaning the streets and the waterfront.\nMoving forward, Peduto would like to see the promotors pick up part, if not all, of the clean-up costs.\n\u201cAll these crowds, they gave rock \u2018n\u2019 roll a bad name,\u201d said longtime Pittsburgh concert promoter Rich Engler. \u201cI mean, this was a country show and we never had garbage like this. I don\u2019t know what was going on.\u201d\nEngler says he agrees with Peduto\u2019s desire for accountability, but says fans should be prepared to hand over more cash.\nPeduto wants to discuss when the parking lots open for tailgating and would also like to see a limitation on boat access along the riverfront.\nAll of these changes would have to be approved and they want it done quickly because there are two more big events on the horizon.\nCountry music star Jason Aldean will play at PNC Park on July 26.\nThe next day, AC Milan will take on Manchester City in the Guinness International Champions Cup at Heinz Field.\nDirector of Stadium Management Jimmie Sacco issued a statement regarding the Luke Bryan show and future events:\n\u201cLuke Bryan attracted thousands of fans to the City of Pittsburgh and generated a significant economic impact to the area.\nI\u2019d like to thank the City of Pittsburgh Police Department and the many other workers who provided support for the concert and allowed a record-breaking crowd to enjoy a great event at Heinz Field.\nAlthough a small number of fans showed a lack of respect for the area, we are pleased that so many fans were well-behaved and enjoyed a beautiful night in our city.\nWe will continue to work with the City of Pittsburgh and all of our support partners to improve the efficiency of hosting large events that attract thousands of visitors to the region.\u201d\nSuperstar Luke Bryan Brings Thousands Of Country Music Fans To North Shore (6/21)\nOfficials Hoping Luke Bryan Concert Won\u2019t Leave Trail Of Trash (6/20/14)",

He was a man with a tremendous work ethic, and his success in providing low-\u200bincome housing and in several other businesses he owned allowed him to become a committed civic leader as well. He led fundraising efforts for the Hill House Association and the August Wilson Center, and, along with his wife Nancy, established a charitable fund at The Pittsburgh Foundation. Washington also served on the boards of Carnegie Mellon University and the Manchester Craftsmen\u2019s Guild.\nBill Nunn III, 63\nNunn was a prolific actor with movie roles ranging from Spike Lee films to the Spider Man movies to Best Picture Oscar-\u200bwinning \u201cThe Departed.\u201d Nunn grew up in Pittsburgh and graduated from Schenley High School. He founded the Bill Nunn Theatre Outreach Project, which helps Pittsburgh public school students learn theater skills.\nRoslyn Litman, 88\n\u201cRoz\u201d Litman was a bright and tough labor lawyer who achieved great success despite being one of the earliest women in her field in Pittsburgh. First in her class at Pitt Law School and armed with the highest score on the state bar exam, she found little interest among the city\u2019s law firms; so she and her husband started their own firm. Her cases included representing basketball star Connie Hawkins against the NBA and suing Allegheny County for its Christmas display in the City-\u200bCounty Building. She was a member of the ACLU\u2019s national board.\nArnold Palmer, 87\nPalmer was a Latrobe native, who, through his brash style of play, athletic good looks and charm, brought a level of mainstream popularity to golf in America that made it the sport it is today. In his prime, Palmer charged around courses, followed by Arnie\u2019s Army, en route to winning seven major championships. And along the way, the son of a groundskeeper became not only a successful businessman \u2014 one of the wealthiest athletes in the world \u2014 but also one of the best-\u200bloved icons in American sports. Despite his immense fame, he kept close ties to western Pennsylvania.\nRobert Page, 89\nPage was the Grammy-\u200bwinning director of the Mendelssohn Choir of Pittsburgh, transforming it during his 26-\u200byear tenure into one of the country\u2019s finest. Before coming to Pittsburgh, he had built his reputation as the \u201cdean of American choral conductors\u201d in Philadelphia and in Cleveland, where he founded the Robert Page Singers. He became head of Carnegie Mellon University School of Music in 1975, becoming a professor and retiring from CMU three years ago. Throughout his career, he successfully strived to elevate the choral groups he led \u2014 in quality, in pay for the musicians, and in the passion of their performances.\nAlbert Filoni, 74\nA summa cum laude graduate of Bethany College with a master\u2019s from Harvard\u2019s Graduate School of Design, Filoni was a longtime leader in Pittsburgh architecture. For more than 30 years, he presided over MacLachlan, Cornelius & Filoni Architects, a firm with projects including the Byham Theater, the Benedum Center and Heinz Hall, among many others. Filoni loved the arts, especially the opera, and he served on the board of Pittsburgh Opera.\nMilt Washington\nRoslyn Litman\nAlbert Filoni\nRuth Mitchell Montgomery, 101: Five years after she and her husband moved to Pittsburgh for a job with the University of Pittsburgh in 1956, Montgomery started the effort to create the Pittsburgh Chamber Music Society (now\u2026",

Marvel has revealed a series of \"X-Men Trading Card\" variant covers that feature Lee's iconic depictions of the X-Men from the early '90s.\nTechnically, these variant covers don't feature new artwork. That's a little too much to hope given that Lee now serves as Co-Publisher of DC Comics. Instead, these covers draw on existing artwork from a trading card series Lee illustrated in the early '90s. Each cover has been \"digitally remastered,\" featuring new coloring by artists like Jesus Aburtov, Israel Silva and Chris Sotomayor.\nIn total, 29 comics will be featured in the X-Men Trading Card promotion in July. Check out our gallery of what's been revealed so far:\nThis isn't the first time in recent months that Marvel has re-purposed old art to create a new variant cover. One of the variant covers for November's Venom #1 featured a recolored piece of art originally drawn by Todd McFarlane in 1988's Amazing Spider-Man #299.\nFor more on what to expect from Marvel this summer, check out the full list of Marvel's solicitations for July 2017.",

        "title": "Planet Ark News - Paperbark review: a sleepy wombat and a powerful story",
        "raw_content": "Paperbark review: a sleepy wombat and a powerful story\nThe furry protagonist of Paperbark is most adorable. Image: Paper House\nWhy is a game about a wombat ambling through the Australian bush important? Admittedly, this is the question I asked when I found out about the game, and that it took years to make and received funding from the state government to produce, according to the game's website and Press Start.\nThe answer gradually became clear to me as I played Paperbark. And by the end, I held no doubts about its significance.\nIn an interview with Mashable, one of the creators, Terry Burdak, explained why they chose rural Victoria as the setting for a game about the Australian natural environment. Other games showcase Australia extremely well, but focus on the popularly portrayed rainforest, desert and coast.\n\u201cI\u2019ve never been to the desert\u2026that feels foreign to me. We wanted to show what was familiar to us, and probably a lot more familiar to other people as well.\u201d\nI agreed, having grown up in Central West NSW \u2013 a landscape closely resembling the dusty pink earth and muted greens and greys of the Paperbark world.\nA point-and-click exploration game, the user takes a (native) bird\u2019s eye view and directs a wombat through its domain \u2013 over logs, through thickets of wild grass, across dry river beds. The objective is to collect fauna and flora along the way and provide the marsupial safe passage as it negotiates rivers, hills, and a ferocious bush fire.\nMostly, there\u2019s not a lot of drama. And while it may seem slow to some users, this is precisely the point. \"It has a lot of quiet time, and I think some people get a little scared of that. They're so used to having media throttling them with sound and action,\" Burdak said.\nIn an age of over-stimulation, and lightning-fast pace of the digital world, Paperbark slows us down. In order to identify the plants to collect, we must be patient and observant. To really gain the most from the experience, we must allow ourselves to breathe and simply soak up the authentic sounds of the bush \u2013 crickets, birds, flies, wind, frogs.\nAs we direct the furry protagonist of the game, we\u2019re confronted with the issues facing its survival. We may read about wildlife concerns but rarely are we placed in the shoes of the animals themselves, our heart beat racing as we blindly run from an encroaching fire or stumble into the foreign \u2013 and potentially dangerous \u2013 yard of a nearby farm.\nI played the game whilst seated at my desk, on the 18th storey of an office building in the CBD of this country\u2019s largest city. I felt uneasy. The sudden and potent yearning to be in the bush caught me by surprise. Paperbark is utterly beautiful but it\u2019s not just the watercolour portrayal of life in Australian bush that is affecting. It\u2019s the whole experience.\nWith the theme of this year's National Tree Day being Connect in Nature, where we explore the relationship between 'screen time' and 'green time', Paperbark provided yet another reminder that technology and nature need not be mutually exclusive. It does what every good game should do \u2013 it transports.

        "raw_content": "Reducing Energy Impacts with Plastics\nManaging energy use is a vital component of CPIA\u2019s efforts to achieve environmental sustainability.\nUsing plastics in products and packaging, and retrieving their energy benefits helps reduce energy requirements and limit greenhouse gas emissions to slow climate change. And, at the end of their lives, many plastics are valuable inputs to sources of clean energy.\nWhile opportunities abound, there\u2019s much more to come. It\u2019s exciting, it\u2019s innovative and it\u2019s changing every day.\nPlastics and Energy Reduction\nThink back on your day \u2013 how many things did you do that didn\u2019t take some form of energy. From flicking on a light switch to powering up your computer or opening your garage to take out your bicycle. Every single day, we each consume vast amounts of energy. Its availability is vital to worldwide economies and to human development. In their many forms, plastics can contribute to reducing energy demands in large and small ways.\nResource-efficient and strong\nProducts and packaging made from plastics are lightweight, they\u2019re excellent insulators and use relatively small amounts of raw materials to contain and protect the products we all rely on.\nThese characteristics translate directly into reducing energy demands for transportation, temperature management and replacement of damaged goods. And then, at the end of their useful lives, the energy stored in plastic products and packaging that are not or cannot be recycled can be converted to renewable energy sources to power homes and businesses.\nThinking about\u2026International Climate Change Protocols\nOn December 12, 2015, Canada joined countries around the world in signing an ambitious agreement to reduce the impacts of climate change, and to set and measure progress toward achieving targets that will make this possible. Innovative solutions developed by the plastic industry have presented various opportunities to reduce GHG emissions over many years. As just one example, a University of Toronto study suggested that Canada could achieve significant reductions by simply replacing old municipal water pipes with new plastic pipes. Why? Because it takes more energy to pump water through leaky or partially corroded or blocked pipes. Find out more about innovative solutions made possible with plastics: Latest News\nEnergy-efficient packaging\nPackaging serves several functions. It contains and protects products, preserves quality and stability of goods and provides information for consumers. Plastic packaging does all this in a way that\u2019s energy-efficient from start to finish.\nFor many years, CPIA has taken part in and funded studies to learn about the impacts of plastic products and packaging from raw material extraction through to disposal.\nThese include Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) studies that measure environmental impacts of a particular product from raw material and energy consumption, manufacturing and use, right through to its ultimate disposal.\nOne of the studies compared the energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts of six types of plastic packaging in the 1.6 million tonnes used every year, to other packaging options such as glass bottles and jars, cartons, cardboard and metal cans.\nIt showed that in Canada alone, it would take more than four times as many other materials (actually 7.1 million tonnes!) to do the same work as plastics, at more than double the energy demand.\nReducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) with Plastics\nBurning fossil fuels for electricity, heat, and transportation is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from human activities. When greenhouse gases build up in the atmosphere, they contribute to warming the earth\u2019s surface and result in climate change.\nManufacturing all kinds of products and packaging requires energy. For CPIA and our members, reducing the energy requirements related to all aspects of plastics \u2013 from reducing the amount of raw materials needed, to using less energy in manufacturing, to creating products and packaging that require less energy throughout their life cycles to disposal. All of these are important steps on the road to sustainability.\nCPIA supports their efforts as part of our commitment to this process. Here\u2019s how\u2026\nUsing less plastic to do the same job\nPlastics are \u2018heavy lifters\u2019 because they are very strong compared to their weight. This makes great candidates for lightweighting and thinwalling \u2013 where packages can be made lighter or thinner, in effect using less material to do the same job. This helps achieve the first of the 5Rs, \u201csource reduction\u201d. For example, if you could compare an empty laundry detergent bottle from 10 years ago with today\u2019s version, you\u2019d probably find the newer one is as much as 10% lighter \u2013 but still able to do the same job.\nBut that\u2019s not all. The lighter and thinner plastic packaging delivers the same services (protection, convenience, preservation and consumer information) with less overall environmental impacts. Using less material means resources are conserved, less energy is used to make the package and less GHG is generated.\nReducing Energy Consumption one Bottle at a Time\nYou may use plastic bottles because they\u2019re lightweight, convenient and safe, but did you know they can take up to 25% less energy to produce than metal cans, glass bottles or cartons? And because they weigh less, they also require less energy to transport. The average 2-litre PET bottle has shed about one-third of its weight since 1980, but can still contain the same amount of liquid (e.g., pop). If the same size bottle is made of recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate resin), it can reduce up to 48 million BTUs of energy.\nReducing energy consumption and GHG emissions with plastic products\nUsed in products for homes, offices, manufacturing facilities and just about every walk of life, plastic products result in daily reductions in energy and GHG emissions.\nEnergy is needed to generate raw materials, manufacture products and manage waste, but because the new plastics are often small and lightweight, lifetime energy impacts and GHG emissions are lower. Combined with the fact that many plastic products are designed specifically to reduce GHG emissions the overall impacts can be impressive. For example:\nChances are your home has plastic foam insulation and maybe even a house wrap (a plastic film barrier sheet that acts like a windbreaker for a building). Together, they can reduce your annual heating/cooling costs by as much as 50%\nOne study showed if all houses in Canada used plastic exterior foam insulation, GHG emissions would drop by 3 million tonnes/year, the equivalent of taking 700,000 vehicles off the road each year\nA European study suggested that energy savings over the lifetime of plastic insulation boards (like siding) are more than 150 times greater than the energy needed for production and that it takes just four months for insulation materials save more energy than is used to produce them\nIn infrastructure projects, durable and non-corrosive plastic piping can replace leaky and partially-blocked metal water pipes to significantly reduce energy requirements of pumping water from place to place.\nDo you remember your grandparents\u2019 car? It was heavier and larger than today\u2019s version because many materials in yesterday\u2019s automobiles have now been replaced by plastics. For every 100 kg of plastics used, today\u2019s car might save about 750 litres of fuel over its lifespan\nUsed in electronics and appliances, plastics offer a lightweight alternative that significantly reduce energy over their lifetimes, for example, substituting mp3 players for portable CD players or replacing film cartridge cameras with digital versions result in significant energy and GHG emission reductions (by factors of at least 25)\nPlastics and Energy Recovery\nMuch of today\u2019s energy needs are met by burning non-renewable fossil fuels that contribute to climate change. But, by converting non-recyclable, end-of-life plastics to energy, we can help offset or even reduce the demand for fossil fuels.\nRecovering energy from waste is a waste management alternative to landfill, where energy from materials that can\u2019t be diverted is transformed into renewable energy. Energy recovery involves scientific, regulated and carefully controlled incineration techniques such as gasification, pyrolysis, or the manufacture of refuse derived fuel (RDF).\nEnergy recovery complements recycling activities by recovering \u2018borrowed energy\u2019 from the products and plastics at the stage where they can\u2019t be reused or recycled. These technologies are united by a common feature: safety and high yield, partially-renewable energy production.\nPlastics are a valuable source of energy\nIn 2012, CPIA commissioned a study to determine the energy value of plastics that currently can\u2019t be recycled and that go to landfill. Researchers at the University of Waterloo estimated that if every bit of the 2.8 million tonnes of non-recyclable plastics were converted to energy:\nusing pyrolysis, where waste plastics are heated to promote chemical decomposition that converts them to synthetic oil products, they would generate more than nine million barrels of oil - enough to power nearly 640,000 cars for a year\nin a waste-to-energy (WTE) plant, where plastics would be burned, they would generate enough energy to supply nearly 1.5 million households with dioxin and furan-free electricity for a year and reduce coal consumption by 681,000 tonnes\nAt CPIA, our priority is to reduce, reuse and recycle end-of-life plastics as much as possible. But we also recognize that recovering energy from remaining materials is a valuable option that provides a welcome renewable source of energy.\nThinking about ... Waste to Energy (WTE)\nWTE is a term that covers technologies (like pyrolosis, refused derived fuel, gasification) used worldwide to reuse waste materials that can\u2019t be recycled to generate fuel sources for heat and power. Plastics have a high measure of \u201ccaptured\u201d energy (the amount of energy that can be released) which helps increase the efficiency of WTE processes.\nEnergy Recovery Using the Energy Bag\nDow has teamed with municipal and industry partners to implement an alternative for plastic waste with the Energy Bag Programs . The Energy Bag Programs demonstrate that non-recycled plastic items - like juice pouches, candy wrappers and plastic dinnerware - can be collected and converted into an energy resource and helps identify a way to keep more material out of the landfill. More on Dow's Energy Bag Program.\nCanadians support energy recovery\nCanada is becoming a leader in WTE technology with new plants in place or in progress in several communities from Prince Edward Island to Vancouver Island. In 2014, CPIA commissioned a poll to probe Canadians\u2019 attitudes to WTE facilities to find out if WTE is a concern and how Canadians view this option as an alternative to landfilling the plastics that currently can\u2019t be recycled.\nThe results showed strong support for WTE technology:\n89% of respondents prefer that non-recyclable plastics go to WTE/EFW rather than landfill\n80% showed interest in expanding WTE recovery systems\n66% have a favourable impression of WTE EFT technologies\n63% voiced support for hosting an EFW facility in their community\nFast Facts on Energy, GHG Reduction and Energy Recovery\nThe 2014 Substitution Analysis LCA: Impact Of Plastics Packaging On Life Cycle Energy Consumption & Greenhouse Gas Emissions contains a wealth of information about impacts of plastics as well as various other packaging types.\nIn a three-month trial in one US community, CPIA member Dow rolled out a program to recover non-recyclable plastic (NRP) materials for WTE processing. This short pilot converted 6,000 lb. of NRP to synthetic crude oil, despite somewhat low participation. With more time to get in the swing of things, nearly 80% of residents said they\u2019d like to participate if they had another chance. Find out more about the Citrus Heights Purple Bag program. Dow also has an\"Energy Bag Program\".\nNon-recyclable plastics are an important contributor to renewable energy sources in Canada.

        "raw_content": "Trump administration finalizes rollback of school lunch regulations\n(WASHINGTON) \u2014 The Trump administration has finalized a rollback of school lunch regulations championed for years by former first lady Michelle Obama.\nUnder the rules first announced last year, schools are now allowed to offer more flavored milk options, like chocolate. Additionally, the Obama-era efforts to limit sodium content in school lunches have been delayed or partially eliminated.\nThe announcement Thursday doesn\u2019t require schools to make any changes, but allows them to relax restrictions on those products.\nThe changes will impact 99,000 schools and institutions that feed 30 million children every year, according to the Department of Agriculture.\nAt a May 2017 press conference first announcing the move to deregulate school food, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said the decision was not meant to reduce nutritional standards. He argued that children would avoid nutritious foods all together if they weren\u2019t given more flavored options.\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t be as big as I am today without chocolate milk,\u201d Perdue said at the time.\nThe decision is part of the Trump administration\u2019s broad efforts to reduce \u201cunnecessary regulatory burdens\u201d across the federal government.\nThe Center for Science in the Public Interest, a food policy advocacy group, condemned the move.\n\u201cThe Trump administration is putting politics before children\u2019s health in ways worse than were expected,\u201d the organization said in a statement.\nPark Wilde, a food policy professor at Tufts University, said the USDA should provide clear evidence before rolling back standards.\n\u201cFor many years, leading researchers and public health nutrition organizations have urged USDA to provide children with school meals that have less salt and sugar, and more whole grains,\u201d Wilde said. \u201cThis rule does the opposite.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Aayush Sharma is making his debut with Loveratri and now that we know how he bagged the role, in his first interview, Aayush reveals how the marriage with Arpita Khan actually happened.\nAayush Sharma and Arpita Khan were really good friends and they often met and partied together. Their friendship was more than 4 years. when Arpita revealed that she is planning to settle down and get married. That\u2019s when Aayush Sharma was taken aback and he wanted to really go upto her and tell her that he really likes her.\nWhile talking to Quint, he said,\u201dMe and Arpita were friends, we knew each other for four years. We used to meet at parties and would go out with friends in group. It was a point when after four years, she one day randomly told me \u2018my brother is looking for someone to get me married off too\u2019, it did not feel right at all to me. So I made a 5 am call to Arpita and told her that I like you and I want to be with you, and there was an awkward silence\u201d.\nAdding furthur Aayush revealed that Arpita asked him about his opinion on future of their relationship as she was looking for marriage and so was her family. That\u2019s when both of them decided to date each other and if things go well, then they would think of marriage.\nAs the destiny already knew it, Aayush and Arpita really clicked well but the actual tension point was when he went to meet her brothers and especially Salman Khan.\nAayush elaborates his experience and reveals,\u201dWhen I first time met him, he knew everything about me. He had researched about me already. After a brief conversation, he asked me to have a walk with him. At that moment, I could only think of the scene from Pyaar kiya toh darna kya. I looked at Arpita and she was hinting me to not go but that is not possible, I can\u2019t be rude to tell him I can\u2019t go on a walk with him. So I went with him and then he took me on a corner and asked me on a serious note, what is the future of the relationship, that\u2019s when I told him with honesty that I want to marry Arpita and I don\u2019t wanna live in regret when I am 30 and I want to marry and she is already moved on with someone else.

        "raw_content": "Home Life Skills jobs/careers 2018 Military Guide: Military Myths\nWhile there\u2019s a wealth of information out there about joining the military, there\u2019s also a wealth of MISinformation. Cpl. Krista E. James, a Marine specializing in marketing and communications, debunks some of the most common myths about military service.\nMYTH: Bootcamp is designed to make you fail.\nFalse. Recruit training is designed to break down the old version of recruits and mold them into well-disciplined members of the military. Recruits learn the value of teamwork and leadership, straying from a, \u201cWhat\u2019s in it for me?\u201d mentality into a, \u201cHow can I help the team?\u201d mentality. Recruits in training are taught to walk with their heads held high, to lend a helping hand to those in need, to thrive in today\u2019s society with respect, leadership, discipline and integrity, and to serve their country.\nMYTH: All military service members have to go to war and fight.\nFalse. While it is a Marine\u2019s duty to serve their country, whether in a war-zone or in a peaceful atmosphere, there are many Marines who have never seen combat. I myself was on a non-combat deployment for six months on the Black Sea Rotational Force in Mihail Kogalniceanu, Romania. Our primary job was crisis contingency, not fighting a war. We spent our time there strengthening relationships with partner nations in the region.\nMYTH: What you learn in the military has no applicability to life outside of the service.\nFalse. There are many Military Occupational Specialties (MOS\u2019) in the Marine Corps that translate into the civilian world. We have jobs in fields such as administration, communications, electronics maintenance, legal services, music, aircraft maintenance, and many others that can all translate into the civilian world. When I joined the Marine Corps, I was in public affairs. Now that I\u2019m in Alabama at a Recruiting Station, I do marketing and communications. I\u2019m 25 years old and I have a ton of responsibility. Many people think we are just taking young adults and sending them off to war, but we are actually preparing them to be great leaders in the community, and teaching them invaluable lessons at a very early age so they can be as successful as possible.\nMYTH: Going into the military forfeits your chance to get a college education.\nFalse. We have many resources, such as the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps Scholarship, that allow recipients to get a college education and then serve their country as an officer. We also provide tuition assistance. That means Marines can serve their country, receive benefits like medical and dental, and still go to school free of charge. After their time-in-service has ended, Marines can still utilize their GI Bill. This bill provides up to 36 months of education benefits, to include a housing allowance. The Marine Corps is dedicated to the overall advancement of our Marines.\nWOMEN IN THE SERVICE\nI\u2019ve heard things that range from, \u201cI didn\u2019t know women were in the Marine Corps,\u201d to, \u201cThere\u2019s no way females do the same things males do.\u201d Female recruits go through the same training as male recruits do. Our Marine Corps Recruit Training schedule directly reflects that of the males. Females are even allowed to join the infantry, and they only make it to graduation for their specific job field if they can perform the same tasks as the males. Women in the Marine Corps are among the fewer and prouder, and make up only about eight percent of this elite force.",

        "raw_content": "Dominic Grieve says ministerial veto on FoI 'destroyed' by release of Charles letters and must be restored\nMartin Belam returns to The Guardian as social and new formats editor\nIPSO orders Sunday Times correction over 'inaccurate' report on pension advice given to undercover reporter\nA story in The Sunday Times about advice on pensions given to a \"secret shopper\" was inaccurate and required a correction, the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) has ruled.\nMike Hardy, managing director of Abacus Advice Ltd, complained that the story, headlined \"'Petrifying' advice given on pensions\", published in print and online on 12 April last year, breached clause one of the Editors' Code of Practice, covering accuracy.\nThe story reported the findings of an undercover \"mystery shopper\" investigation into pension advice offered by firms following changes to pension rules.\nA journalist posing as an unemployed client who was seeking to withdraw between \u00a340,000 and \u00a345,000 from a \u00a3100,000 pension fund called financial advice firms wanting to know if the money could be withdrawn tax-free.\nHardy was among those whose responses were criticised in the article.\nIn the story, he said he \"appeared to tell the reporter that there would be no tax implication if she withdrew 45 per cent of her pension pot\" whereas \"in reality, most pensions allow people to withdraw only 25 per cent of their fund tax-free, with the remainder being subject to income tax\".\nHardy complained that The Sunday Times claim he had given the reporter \"advice\" was inaccurate because this implied he gave regulated financial advice over the phone.\nHe also said it was inaccurate to suggest that he gave the reporter misleading information \u2013 it was not controversial to say she would not have to pay income tax if she did not have an income. If the reporter was entitled to tax-free money, she would not have to pay income tax on her withdrawal.\nHardy said that during the course of their conversation, he made clear that in most circumstances, people seeking to withdraw money from their pension would only be entitled to withdraw 25 per cent tax-free, in addition to the standard tax-free allowance (\u00a310,600).\nHardy said that at the time of the conversation he was suspicious that the person to whom he was speaking was a journalist, and so was therefore particularly mindful not to provide inaccurate information.\nThe newspaper said that it was not misleading to report that Hardy gave the reporter \"advice\" over the telephone. While the term \"advice\" had specific definitions under FCA guidelines, it was simply used to describe the information Hardy gave the reporter, The Sunday Times said.\nThe newspaper acknowledged that Hardy had said during the conversation that he was unable to say with certainty what the journalist's entitlement to tax-free money would be without contacting her pension provider, but said it took the view that the conversation as a whole would have left a potential client with the unrealistic impression that \u00a340,000 to \u00a345,000 could be withdrawn tax-free.\nIn an effort to resolve the complaint, it offered to expand the online article to include a statement provided by Hardy which would reflect more explicitly that he would not have made any specific recommendations to a potential client without first contacting his or her pension provider, and to publish a clarification in print in its \"Corrections and Clarifications\" column, and online beneath the article.\nIPSO's ruling\nIPSO's complaints committee recognised the public interest in conducting mystery shopper exercises to investigate and expose impropriety, particularly when it could have an impact on the vulnerable.\nThe newspaper was entitled to criticise the conduct of pension advisers on the basis of the information gathered by the journalist, given the potential risks, but was obliged to do so in a manner that was not misleading.\nIt was not misleading to describe the information Hardy gave as \"advice\", the committee said.\nThe newspaper was entitled to take the view that Hardy's responses to the journalist's inquiries were open to criticism, provided that that criticism was not based on factual inaccuracy.\nThe article said Hardy \"appeared to tell the reporter that there would be no tax implication if she withdrew 45 per cent of her pension pot\", which the committee concluded gave a misleading impression of their conversation as a whole, which was not remedied by the use of the word \"appeared\". Hardy never specifically advised that the journalist could withdraw 45 per cent of her pension fund tax-free \u2013 had he done so this would plainly have been \"bad\" advice.\nThe failure to refer to Hardy's repeated qualification or to the fact that he had only ever referred to 25 per cent of the money being tax-free amounted to a failure to take care not to publish misleading information in breach of clause one.\nThe committee required the publication of a correction. The clarification offered by the newspaper did not identify the misleading information published, so the newspaper should include in the published correction the fact that Hardy had not told the journalist that she could withdraw 45 per cent of her pension fund tax-free.\nThe correction should appear beneath the online article and in its clarifications and corrections column in print, and should explain that the correction is being published following a ruling by IPSO.\nSince IPSO was founded in September 2014, the body has ruled on three complaints made against The Sunday Times, two of which have been upheld.\nIPSO: Sun's covert recording of Paul Mason talking in restaurant about Corbyn's lack of appeal not a breach of privacy\nDaily Express forced to run second front-page correction over pro-Brexit coverage in space of a week\nSun publishes correction, with front page reference, over misleading 'Court Jezter' claims",

The intervention or prevention programs for school bullying would lessen bullying behaviors in schools. There are varied literature reviews that have tried to reveal the ways intervention or prevention program may help to overcome the issue of bullying in schools. Ikuko, Terrill and Danielle (2011) examine the relationship that exists between victimization of cyber bullying and the problems among the youths. School bullying is common, and it is practiced in various ways. One of them is through cyber bullying whereby friends bully their friends because they want to be seen powerful and dominating towards others. The only way this can be eliminated is through prevention programs directed towards the elimination of cyber bullying. This is vital because it will lessen the problem of cyber bullying, which might trigger conflicts. The research findings carried out reveals that cyber bullying intervention programs are essential. This is because they will provide essential information that would contribute to effective prevention or intervention development programs. The intervention and prevention programs will help in lessening the cyber bullying problems at school thus reducing the problem of school bullying.\nBullying behaviors are widespread among school students. Therefore, providing prevention or intervention programs will enable teachers to eliminate or lessen the problem. Frequent bullying behaviors are associated with depression which may contribute to suicide. A research interview carried out revealed that frequent bullying contributes to high risks of committing suicide among the youths (Klomek, Kleinman, Altschuler, Marrocco, Amaka &Gould, 2011). Klomek et al. (2011) revealed that bullying victims may develop depression later in their lives, and some may have psychiatric problems. Those students who experience this problem are reported with cases of depression or suicidality. Therefore, it is recommendable to carry out assessment behaviors in screening protocols in order to curb the problem before it is too late.\nIn addition, carrying out cross-sectional studies as one of the intervention program is essential. This will provide sufficient evidence that bullying behaviors constitute, hence providing a solution to it. Carrying out longitudinal studies is vital because they distinguish the predictive risk factors that may cause depression and suicide. The research study carried out revealed that children under the age of eleven years who suffer from depression bouts when bullied (Klomek et al., 2011). Bullying behaviors are commonly among high school students especially to those who have joined in the school are mostly victimized. This requires teachers to find means of preventing this phenomenon before it might affect the performance of the students being bullied. This can be done through monitoring the students\u2019 behaviors because some of them may suffer from depression, and they may not be active in the school curriculum. Monitoring of their performance and the behaviors of these students in class are vial. This is because it will help the tutor to come up with solutions of curbing the problem before it may cause a significant impact among the students.\nBranson and Cornell (2009) in their article reveal the significance of carrying out intervention programs. They examine the effectiveness of carrying out anti-bullying programs directed towards bullying reduction. The researchers who study aggressiveness of peer usually employ peer nomination when carrying out their study programs. This is crucial because this will help them to come up with clear reports on the way peers behave towards their fellow colloquies. From the research carried out on the behaviors of peer, it was discovered that bullying is linked with school maladjustments (Branson and Cornell, 2009). Therefore, there is a need to carry out assessment activities with an aim of determining the ways through which bullying can be reduced. Assessment programs are vital because they will provide means through which these problems can be minimized in schools.\nBullying is a national health problem that affects many millions of students (Juvonen & Gross, 2008). The rapid increase of technology such as online communications has contributed immensely to cyber bullying problems. The carried out research revealed out that there is a connection between cyber bullying and school bullying. Some students spend most of their time in computer laboratories bullying other students. The school bullying is a result of increased social anxiety. This problem can contribute to conflicts in schools whereby students may end up fighting or hating each other. There are various ways through which this problem can be reduced, and this is through carrying out prevention programs. One of them is through formulating school policies that will eliminate the cyber bullying. The school administration would put strict laws and regulations that may help in lessening cyber bullying in school. Another prevention program is through educating children about the risks of bullying. It is crucial for parents to educate their children about the risk associated with cyber bullying. This is one way of earlier intervention or prevention program that will enable students to stop their bullying behaviors. Another way of preventing this problem is through preventing and dealing with bullying students. This will enable others to fear bullying others thus lessening bullying activities in school.\nMerrill, Gueldner, Ross and Isava (2008) analyze the way intervention programs are effective ways of curbing school bullying. The authors conducted a meta- analysis of intervention research in order to determine the way intervention programs are effective in lessening school bullying. The applied techniques of meta-analysis are used in order to obtain the average effect estimates of bullying in schools. It was found that the intervention studies produced meaningful and significance positive effects through the use of intervention programs. The research study indicated that intervention programs are vital and effective because they produce positive outcomes. The intervention program influences knowledge, mind-set and self-perception rather than bullying behaviors. Without intervention programs, school bullying can lead to serious issues such as poor performance and poor social relationships.\nResearchers have tried to provide strategies essential for bullying prevention. Bullying was not seen as a big problem in the past, but it has become the center of interest in the modern society. This is because the researchers have tried to provide evidence on the way bullying has become a social problem in the society. Mostly, school bullying is seen as one way that contributes to poor performance in schools. Bullying is associated with development of psychological disorder, which might cause a threat to the health of an individual. The prevention programs have been formulated as a way of preventing this problem in schools. According to Spiel, Salmivalli and Smith (2011), bully prevention can become successful only if proper strategies are formulated. This is because bullying is an enormous problem that affects an individual psychological contributing to other associated disorders. One of the strategies that can lessen bullying is through carrying out anti-bullying program. The effective prevention programs can be implemented in schools in order to reduce bullying behaviors.\nAnother strategy is an assessment of the problem that contributes to bullying within and outside the classrooms. The researchers reveal that the students can provide accurate information on the ways bullying occur in their learning institutions. Therefore, there is a need for assessment programs to be carried in order to find means through which bullying occurs in school. This will help one to understand varied ways through which bullying occurs and the type of bullying, which occurs mostly in the learning institutions. The survey program offers baseline information, which is essential for making assessments after formulating prevention strategies (Spiel, Salmivalli & Smith, 2011). The assessment strategies will lessen the bullying behaviors. This is because it can help teachers to identify the matters that may arise and find solutions to them.\nMartin-Storey, Temcheff, Martin and Stack (2009) argue that in order for learning institutions to reduce bullying behaviors, they should create a change in the school. The changing climate will alter some social norms and perception created by bullying students. Tutors and parents should be come intolerant to bullying behaviors and consistently identify those behaviors. They should provide adequate discipline to students with bullying behaviors in order to create a better learning environment for other non-bullying students. A change should take place through providing education programs that emphasize the way bullying may affect the students. Tutors and parents should work together through providing students with activities that will discourage idleness thus reducing bullying behaviors. Education program about the impact of bullying is essential. This is because it will make student aware of the consequence that may result from engaging in bullying behaviors (Martin-Storey et al., 2009).\nIntegrated methods for bullying prevention should be provided. The study carried out reveals that the best method of preventing bullying behaviors is through incorporating intervention programs with varied activities and education programs. These programs should be provided every year. The framework should be set, and everyone will participate in formulating guidelines essential for eliminating bullying behaviors. Setting of policies and rules directed towards preventing bullying behaviors is imperative. Parents and teachers should and identify those bullyin behaviors that might affect the learning environment. This is essential because it will enable them to control those behaviors before they occur in the future (Spiel, Salmivalli & Smith, 2011).\nBurns (2011) argues that bullying and harassment in learning can be reduced through continued education programs and intervention. The new students joining the new learning institutions in each year should be trained on the way they should behave in a learning environment. This is crucial because it will enable students to have high discipline that would enable them to concentrate in vital activities rather than bullying. Teachers should provide intervention programs as the ongoing basis. New studies have been conducted that reveal the way intervention is vital in a learning institution. Organized schools that aim at shaping the future behaviors of students should have access to the better anti-bullying programs. They should find suggestions and recommendations vital for creating change against the bad behaviors in school.\nMoreover, Burns (2011) comments that earlier intervention should be practiced in schools in order to reduce bullying behaviors. Earlier intervention programs are vital because they enable those students who bully others to reduce bullying their fellow students. Providing appropriate punishments to bullying students are crucial. This is crucial because it will change the behavior of the student. It will act as an example to others who bully; hence students may exercise discipline of the highest order in school. Therefore, it is significant to punish students with such bullying behaviors that rather sending them away to a different school. This is because they will join a new school and continue with their bullying behaviors. In this way, one has not helped to prevent this behavior; thus, punishment should be instilled in schools continuously.\nSwearer, Espelage, Vaillancourt and Hymel (2010) in their article review emphasize on the importance of school contributions towards critical factors that may hinder better performance of the school. They point out that prevention measures should be provided by the school authority in order to curb bullying behaviors. These authors provide a delineation of methodological challenges and assessment of successive factors that may prevent bullying. Moreover, they evaluate intervention programs that may help to lessen bullying behaviors in school. Positive behavioral interventions should be conducted, and teachers should provide support to students in order to help them maintain discipline in school. Swearer et al. (2010) tries to explain of school psychology and behavioral attitudes of students in assessing their behaviors in school.\nSwearer et al. (2010) point out that bullying prevention program is a comprehensive approach that empowers students and enables them to work towards achieving their goals. This is because it enables teachers to eliminate substandard behaviors in school that might threaten the performance of students in school. Bullying is considered as one of the serious problems in school because it can trigger strikes and it might affect academic performance of students. It does not only affect the learning institutions, but the entire outside community. There anti-bullying programs that have been formulated and their aims are to fight against bullying in schools. The agency focuses on the treating effects of violence and finds ways of treating them. The programs employ strategies that are crucial in preventing bullying behaviors in school. One of the prevention programs is known as get connected, and it is a comprehensive prevention method suitable for lessening school bullying. It proactively eliminates bulling through communicating with the peers on the way they should be kind to their friends and work together to achieve success.\nNaylor and Cowie (2000) point out that peers\u2019 conflicts such as bullying behaviors and physical violence are common and they are ever increasing in the modern schools. Many peers witness the violence or conflicts taking place in school, but they fear to intervene and report the maters to school administration. The authors try to analyze the way intervention programs are crucial in preventing or lessening peer conflicts in schools. They explain the way it is essential for teachers to intervene through providing guidance and counseling to peers. The intention process involved in this case is the sharing of powers whereby the teachers will share powers with the students. Teachers would allow students to participate in intervention programs, and they should provide support to the peers. This is crucial because it will enable peers to learn from experience and work towards improving their behaviors.\nMenzel (2009) points out that intervention and mediation programs may help in lessening the bullying behaviors at school. He argues that designing effective prevention program for bullying students is essential. In this case, the staff members should implement better programs that seek to improve the relationships of peers at school. Most psychologists argue that when designing an effective prevention program, there is a need of understanding the tendency of a child towards the way bullying influences individuals. This will enable teachers to understand the way they can tackle the problems that trigger conflicts in school. Creating public awareness through campaigns is one of the preventive was of overcoming the problems of bullying in schools. Public awareness campaigns should prevent bullying in schools. This is because it makes students understand more on the consequences of bullying behaviors.\nMaking earlier interventions is vital because it enables teachers to control bullying behaviors before they spread far within the learning institutions. Teachers should teach proper skills and values directed towards the elimination of bullying behaviors. Effective bullying intervention should reinforce protective and reduced risks factors that may benefit all the students. The school administration should provide universal interventions which are based on good caring and improved personal responsibilities (Menzel, 2009). Teachers should provide intensive intervention programs individually in order to provide support to both bullies and victims with individual support. The main objective is to create a culture that reduces all bullying behaviors immediately. All students should learn positive behaviors and join the anti-bullying programs in order to eliminate this behavior. This will enable them to create conducive learning environment that may help them to achieve their future goals.\nThe bullying intervention programs can only become successful if they incorporate some of the recommended issues. First, coordinating with various schools within the district whereby the students should become consistent with varied training programs imparted to them. The second recommendable issue is assessing the problems that may trigger conflicts in school. When carrying out intervention programs, it is vital to locate the place where bullying takes place. It is vital to administer parents and young girls for the purpose of better understanding. Establishment of the coordinating team would help to lessen the problem. This trained team should be in apposition of communicating well and should be knowledgeable. It is vital to establish a coordinating team when implementing intervention programs (Drewes, 2009). Involving all the school community will benefit all students to learn about anti-bullying skills.\nHazier, Miller, Carney and Green (2001) examine the way some programs such as prevention programs are crucial. It is vital to carry out intervention program individual because it will enable one to understand factors that contribute to bullying. Individual intervention programs can succeed through establishing a protocol for intervening and investigating on factors that contribute to bullying. This is crucial because it will enable one to find ways of overcoming the problems though seeking better solutions to overcome the impeding factors that contribute to bullying. It is essential to meet with the victim and then meet with bully. Both require additional development skills and strengthening them in the ways they should apply their skills. The intervention programs should address the underlying causes to bullying. Teachers should reinforce alternative and better behaviors that may help the bullying students to improve their behaviors.\nThe research study indicates that there are various ways though which intervene would help bullied students. Ellis (2006) reveals that a coherent set of strategies would help in solving the problems caused by bullying in schools. Bullying occurs due to different reasons and some bullying students lack empathy towards their friends. Bullies take advantages of social structure in a society and some engage in these activities and because of mental problems. The bullying behavior is condoned (Naylor and Cowie, 2000). The culture of the learning institutions can be a bully to the students. Therefore, teachers can intervene and work towards eliminating bullying behaviors that may impact on learning institution.\nThe school can intervene by providing emotional health and well-being of the overall social context. The example of intervention programs includes restorative practices, problem solving approach and problem solving approach carried out through training programs. Moreover, providing intervention programs such as support group methods are essential (David, Lynn & Ellis, 2010). This will enhance empathy and foster social attitudes within the group. In case, these methods would become successful, they would enhance group ethos through which it is possible to make reparation for the physical damage arising from bullying. Peer discussions are accepted widely because they act as one of thhe strategies of solving bullying issues. Peer supporter helps in solving the problem of bullying in schools. This is because they create awareness in the school and peer supporters may help in creating a better learning environment.\nThe theoretical and conceptual framework would focus on the cognitive behavioral theory. This is a psychotherapeutic approach that aims to solve dysfunctional behaviors of an individual. Ellis (2006) developed the cognitive behavioral theory, which tries to explain the way adolescent and young children make decisions. This framework developed through integration of behavioral and cognitive theory. The rationale premise of this theory is that individuals cause distress to themselves. The author emphasizes that individuals construct their own feelings of anxiety, depression and anger which makes them behave their own ways (Ellis, 2006). Ellis\u2019s theory of cognitive behavior is the base on the psychological premises that human beings are rational and irrational. Every human being acts irrationally when making decisions, but this may trigger conflicts.\nFrom the above literature reviews, one may comment that school bullying is common because human psychological disturbance results due to human rationality. The irrational thinking is accompanied by irrational events that may challenge or refute people\u2019s irrational thinking. Therefore, school bullying occurs because some bullying students make irrational decisions or think that may affect other\u2019s people\u2019s welfare. This approach differs from other theories because it interprets the life events of individuals. Drewes (2009) noticed some psychological disturbances that are connected with the irrational beliefs. This is one of the reasons that contribute to maladaptive behaviors in the society. Cognitive behavioral therapy is one of the theories linked with the student\u2019s bullying behaviors in school. This is because some students involve in technical behaviors which may impact other students\u2019 welfare. This is because of the way school students make irrational decisions.\nThe qualitative methodology would be used in gathering adequate information about the way intervention or prevention programs would lessen the school bullying. The research design would in-depth gather the qualitative information about school bullying and the way intervention program would lessen it. The research would help one to understand the behavior of human beings and the behaviors that govern them.\nWill an Intervention or Prevention Program for school-bullying lessen bullying behaviors in school?\nThere will be a significant relationship between the school bullying behaviors and the intervention or prevention programs provided.\nThe smaller sample techniques would be needed rather than larger sampling techniques in finding the way intervention and prevention program would lessen bullying in school. A small subset of the total population would be sampled in order to provide clear data essential for further analysis.\nDifferent data approaches would be used in collecting data is cognitive testing, which is a traditional qualitative method of data collection. The simple procedure would involve the following: choosing a set of data for carrying out cognitive or pilot testing. A pilot experiment would then be carried out to test the full-scale experiment design.\nIt is expected that the intervention or prevention program would produce better results. It is anticipated that after carrying out the intervention programs, the school bullying would lessen; hence creating a peaceful learning environment. Ikuko, Terrill and Danielle (2011) examine the relationship that exists between victimization of cyber bullying and the problems among the youths. This is expected to reduce if clear intervention programs would be carried out. Cyber bullying requires proper assessment and through teachers\u2019 intervention program and this would contribute to reduction of cyber bullying.\nA research interview carried out revealed that frequent bullying contributes to high risks of committing suicide among the youths (Klomek et al., 2011). However, if the intervention prams were used, there would be a positive outcome. This would be achieved through parents who may work together with parents in order to achieve better results. This program would lead to reduction of high risks of attempting suicide. Emotional health and well-being of the students would be achieved through educating students. This would contribute to reduction of bullying in schools.\nEllis (2006) examines the cognitive behavioral theory and this is vital because it would produce a better outcome, in case, it would be utilized well. The theory would help students to make rational decisions and make effective conclusions. This would help in lessening the problem of cyber bullying. Additionally, a meta-analysis of rational cognitive behavioral theory would provide comparable effectiveness. This would produce a better result in conduct disorders and encourage students to avoid questioning behaviors that might affect their performance. This will reduce the problem of bullying other innocent children.\nImplications for Research and Practice and Ethical Concerns\nThe research practice might affect the findings of the study. This is because the smaller number of people who would be sampled maybe unwilling to reveal data. This is because the population that would be sampled may not be willing to reveal data. This is one of the limitations that may hinder the expected outcomes. Human services may be affected because of different ethnic background. These ethnic groups might have their own cultural practices that may impact the role of human resource when providing education programs. Moreover, the different cultural setup may hinder human resources when they are passing across knowledge.\nThe research skills can affect the human services practitioner, affect transformative and the social change in the society because of the unethical issue student bullying others. Bullying is unethical problem that may affect individuals in the society. This is because it contributes to stress and it may result in death due to traumatized and suicide committed. The research skills may enable human services to have become sympathetic toward the groups that have undergone bullying in school. It might psychologically affect one especially the resource manager who may become concerned with the way students suffer in schools.\nThe concerning ethical issues is to control bullying in school and have empathy towards the fellow students. Parents and teachers should work together in order to eliminate school bullying. This is vital because it is one way of exercising ethical issues (Ellis, 2006). They should punish bullying students in order to help other who might be bullied and suffered from stress or commit suicide. It is essential for parents and teachers to provide guidance and cancelling in order to enable students to avoid bullying their fellow students. Encouraging ethical issues such as empathy and love among the students are crucial because it will help students to performance better.\nIn conclusion, employing intervention and prevention programs would help to lessen school bullying. School bullying has become a common issue in most schools. There are varied literature books that have tried to explain the way these programs are essential. This is because they help in preventing or lessening school bullying. Carrying out cross-sectional studies as one of the intervention program is essential. This will provide adequate evidence that bullying behaviors constitute, hence providing a solution to it. The bullying intervention programs can only become successful if they incorporate some of the recommended issues. Coherent set of strategies would help in solving the problems caused by bullying in schools. It is vital to carry out intervention program individual because it will enable to one to recognize factors that contribute to school bullying. They examine the effectiveness of carrying out anti-bullying programs directed towards bullying reduction. Students joining new learning institutions should be trained on the way they should behave in a learning atmosphere.\nOne of the theoretical and conceptual frameworks that would be focused on is the cognitive behavioral theory. This theory aims to solve dysfunctional behaviors of an individual. The theory is linked with the student\u2019s bullying behaviors in school because of the irrational decisions they make. Additionally, qualitative research is one of the methodologies that would be employed in gathering information. Research question and hypothesis would be used in testing the project. The smaller sample techniques would be used and pilot or cognitive testing would be used in collecting data. The expected results include better results due to the use of intervention or prevention programs and cognitive behavioral theory. Lastly, the implications for research, practices and ethical concerns would be recorded.",

        "raw_content": "What Is a Bookland EAN Barcode?\nThe Bookland EAN is an international barcode used to identify books, video cassettes, audio cassettes and software. The Bookland EAN number is created using the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) as well as the currency and and price of the book. Since each title and edition of a book has a unique ISBN, the corresponding Bookland EAN symbol is also unique.\nIn other industries the first two or three digits of an EAN-13 barcode identify the country of origin. Since the book industry produces so many products, it has been given its own country codes (978 and 979) for 'Bookland'. To print an ISBN as a Bookland EAN barcode, add the 978 prefix at the front of the ISBN and remove the ISBN check digit from the end; an EAN check digit should be added in its place.\nThe main part of the EAN is usually followed by a 5-number code which contains the suggested retail price of the book. The first digit of the five indicates the currency: 0 for the British Pound, 5 for the U.S. Dollar, 4 for the Canadian Dollar. The rest of the code indicates the price. The code 51095, for example, would signify a price of US$10.95. A supplemental code of 90000 indicates that the book has no suggested retail price. Scanners in bookstores in the U.S. cannot read the Bookland EAN code without its 5-digit add-on.\nWhere Can I Get a Bookland EAN?\nIf you're in the US, check out the prices and services of the vendors on this list of bar code film master suppliers from the Bowker Web site.\nCanadians can find a barcode producer in their province on this list from the National Library. You'll need Adobe Acrobat reader to read it, though.\nYou can also create one for yourself using various software packages ranging in price from free to several hundreds of dollars. If you choose this route, be sure to have a bookstore test out the code on their equipment before using it. A barcode is useless if it cannot be scanned.\nISBN (Bookland EAN) Online Bar Code Symbol Generator [Web-Based]\nOpen Source QRCode/EAN-13 Barcode Generator [WINDOWS]\nElfring Barcode Fonts [WINDOWS]\nDo I Also Need a UPC Code?\nWhile a Bookland EAN will suffice when selling your titles through bookstores, non-traditional markets like supermarkets, drugstores and department stores are often not equipped to handle Bookland EAN codes. If you want to sell to these markets, you should also mark your books with the Universal Product Code (UPC).\nThe Book Industry Study Group has created some guidelines for publishers using both codes. On rack-sized mass market books, the UPC code should appear on the back cover of the book, while the Bookland EAN should be printed on the inside of the front cover. On all other books, books should have only one bar code - either an EAN or UPC. If you've got money to burn, you can do this with two print runs of the same book. Otherwise, using UPC labels to cover the EAN barcode will do fine.\nIf you've got a non-book product that you want to sell in bookstores, a UPC symbol will suffice. EAN readers can read UPC symbols, but UPC scanners generally cannot read EAN barcodes.\nWhere Can I Get a UPC Code?\nCanada: Electronic Commerce Council of Canada\nUnited States: GS1 US\nDon't Barcodes Contain the Mark of the Beast?\nEvery so often I hear this ol' urban legend about the number 666 being embedded into all barcodes. Hopefully the following links will assure you that this is not the case:\nMark of the Devil?\nNo Hidden Sixes in the UPC Barcode\nMerchants of Culture: The Publishing Business in the Twenty-First Century",

And now, the animal kingdom is getting restless. It may only be a matter of time before Fluffy satisfies his hunger with something other than Kibbles-n-Bits.\nIn San Diego, a killer whale tries to deep-six a trainer during a live show at SeaWorld. The big fish broke the trainer's foot. The whale is apparently a serial-biter with previous attacks reported in the 1990s. If you ask me it's time to dispatch Shamu to the local Red Lobster.\nIn Florida, there's the naked crackhead who was nearly eaten alive by an alligator. And as Sheriff Grady Judd so eloquently told Fox News, just because you are a naked crackhead, does not give an alligator the right to eat you alive.\nThen there's the story of a California couple who owned a pet chimpanzee. St. James Davis and his wife kept Moe the Chimp at an animal sanctuary. They showed up one day with a birthday cake. In return, Moe went after St. James --- tearing off his testicles.\nMaybe they should have considered a gerbel.\nThe experts aren't quite sure what's making animals so aggressive. It's only a matter of time before someone blames global warming.

Fearful of being mauled by a bear? Avoid Pooh Corner.\nAnd how about People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals? Where's PETA when the animals are eating the humans?\nFriends, it's time to reclaim our position in the food chain, preferably with a cast iron skillet in hand. Let the beasts of the field know who's in charge.\nMay our rally cry be heard across the fruited plain!

        "raw_content": "As part of my preparation to start this blog and really address my compulsive shopping problem, I decided to take a good look at the cold, hard facts of my situation. To do so, I turned to QuickBooks, where I was able to find information about my spending for the past ten years. What I learned was both surprising and depressing!\nThe Numbers in a Nutshell\nIn a nutshell, I have spent close to $50,000 on clothing, accessories, shoes, and alterations from 2003 through 2012, with an average of $4762.56 in these types of expenditures per year. For some people, this sounds like a lot of money, while it may seem reasonable or perhaps even low to others.\nA few other pieces of information will help to put things into perspective:\nMy budget for each year was usually around $3000, so I exceeded my budget every single year \u2013 and sometimes I even spent over double my budget!\nI have worked from home for all of these years and wear only workout clothes or lounge wear two or more days per week.\nEven My \u201cBest\u201d Year Was Bad\u2026\nIn terms of shopping outlays, my best year was 2009, when I only spent $3,466.33 on clothing and related expenses. My worst years were 2005 and 2006, when my expenditures were $6608.59 and $6161.04, respectively.\nDuring this past year, 2012, I spent the fourth largest amount, $5250.34. While I did better in 2012 than in 2011 (when I spent $5673.29), I still substantially exceeded my budget. Clearly, I have a problem!\nMoney is Only Part of the Shopaholic Puzzle\nAwareness is the first step toward change, but money is only one piece of the puzzle for a shopaholic. In my next post, I\u2019ll look at how many clothes I have and how often I wear them. I know that those cold, hard facts are equally as sobering as the budget numbers, but I need to face the truth in order to change\u2026\nThe Cold, Hard Facts: What I Did \u2013 and Didn\u2019t \u2013 Wear \u2192\n4 thoughts on \u201cThe Cold, Hard Facts: Finances\u201d\nI only have access to my 2009 &2010 tracking atm, but I spend $2560 in 2010 and $1660 in 2009. Most of it overseas (US where it\u2019s cheaper, or Europe). It was when I was working and not wearing a uniform most days (as I do now). Just for your comparison. I have tracked other years too\u2026 Usually in a similar ballpark.\n(Admittedly those figures might miss receipts I\u2019m not so good at saving, like cheap underwear, but should cover most clothing specific shopping)\nSarah, Thank you for sharing your numbers. It\u2019s good to have multiple perspectives, so I hope others feel inspired to share as well. You definitely did better than me with your spending. I always exceeded my budget, but I am committed to staying within my budget this year. Not shopping at all in May will help me with that. I spent way too much in the past, especially since I haven\u2019t worked in an office where I see the same people every day for a number of years now!\nThank you for sharing your numbers. I have only tracked my spending for the past few years, but I know it\u2019s been out of control for longer than that. I\u2019ve been averaging about $540 a month, which is far more than I should be spending! This year is the first time I have set a clothing budget and I\u2019ve already spent more than 2 months worth. I may have set the bar too low ($150 a month, which is a big change from over $500 a month these past few years) but I deliberately set it low so that I would NOT shop as much. I have plenty of clothes, why on earth am I purchasing so much in a month? This has dire financial consequences for my household, yet I do it anyway. I would rather skip lunch than skip purchasing a new top (sad I know). I figure the first step, was realizing how much I have been spending. Now I have to learn what habits to break so I can considerably reduce this monthly expense.\nWhen I tried to drastically reduce my monthly/yearly spending in the past, I usually failed. I\u2019ve found it easier to make more gradual changes, as they tend to work better and last longer. What\u2019s helping me the most now is to limit how many items I can buy. That\u2019s pushing me to think more about what I buy and to purchase higher quality pieces. Perhaps try that for a while and see how it works\u2026 Best of luck to you!",

        "title": "Greg Palast - Beat The Press",
        "raw_content": "Greg Palast - Beat The Press\nHustler Magazine Interview\nBy Bruce David\nFor those of us who've long suspected that our democracy is up for sale to the highest bidder, award-winning investigative journalist Greg Palast has uncovered disturbing evidence confirming as much. Palast's exposes of the theft of the 2000 election, the financial ties between the Bush and the Bin Laden families, and how these connections kept the FBI from perhaps preventing the horrific events of 9/11 have thrown fear into the hearts of media pundits. There has been a near-complete news blackout of the explosive findings documented in Palast's book, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy. First released in England, where he reports for the BBC and The Guardian, Palast's collection of writings is finally being published in America by Penguin/Plume books with 40% new material. In an exclusive HUSTLER interview, the author discloses the truth on high crimes in high places that the mainstream media is afraid to touch.\nHUSTLER: Tell us about your new book. I know you've been able to get your groundbreaking exposes published in England and Europe, but, up until now, your stuff has been too controversial for the American media to touch.\nPALAST: Not a chance in America, until now, thanks to the book.\nHUSTLER: What kind of material do you have in the book?\nPALAST: How about this for an example: After Daddy Bush left the White House, he went to work for a company called Barrick Gold Corporation in Canada, something you haven't read in the United States. The first thing he does is pick up a big, fat check and stock options from Barrick Gold Corporation for, essentially, selling them the presidential seal and the presidential Rolodex. And he writes letters to dictators like [former president of Indonesia] Suharto, saying, \"Give these nice guys gold-mining concessions.\"\nHUSTLER: What is Barrick Gold?\nPALAST: It was founded with money from Adnan Khashoggi, the arms dealer. You may remember that Adnan was the bagman in the guns-for-hostages, Iran-Contra scandal. The sheikh got out, then Bush got in. You have to ask yourself a question: What would a Canadian gold-mining company do with a used president? Well, it turns out that before he left office, Daddy Bush put in motion an expedited process for laying claims to gold in the United States. It allowed Barrick Gold Corporation and a couple of other operators to lay claim to the largest gold mines in America. To stake a claim on $10 billion worth of gold ore, Barrick paid the U.S. Treasury less than $10,000.\nHUSTLER: I would have gone for that, myself. I could have scraped together $10,000.\nPALAST: All I can say is that Barrick was very, very grateful for the gold mine. But the public got the shaft, and Daddy Bush got the job. And George W. got the donations. That's the other thing that has been unreported here: People don't realize how much easy squeezy [campaign money] is flowing in. That includes things like parallel spending and soft money and hard money, which, by the way, hasn't ended. You know that our Congress has passed campaign-finance reform, so-called. What they did was eliminate soft money, but they doubled the amount of hard money. It's just Viagra for campaign donations. Our big problem is that we held something closer to an auction than an election in America. A lot of the reason [George W.] Bush raised all that cash-that easy squeezy-is because of his father's business connections. You're never quite sure where the Bush family's bank account ends, and the campaigns and our American policy begins.\nHUSTLER: Did Barrick get anything else from Bush Sr.?\nPALAST: He helped Barrick secure a gold-mining concession in Tanzania. Now the gold-mining concession was owned by another Canadian company, named Sutton, which Barrick hoped to get the rights from. But there was a problem: The land was worthless, because there were Tanzanian miners already on it who had the rights to the mine. That's why, in the first week of August 1996, Sutton bulldozers ran across that property with military police firing guns to chase off the miners. In the process, they sealed up the mine pits and, unfortunately, there were 50 miners still in the mines, buried alive, say witnesses. That's information that has not been reported in the United States. You can't get that word out for nothing, because Bush's gold-mining company terrorizes journalists who dare breathe a word about it. They terrorize newspapers; they've been terrorizing wire services, and so you don't get the story.\nHUSTLER: They threaten legal action?\nPALAST: They threaten legal action, and they bring legal action. They sued my paper, The Guardian; they said it's all a lie. That's the most prestigious newspaper in the world. They tried to get me to back up and say that no one died. I held firm, and there was nothing that they could do. I wasn't in Tanzania, and I didn't dig out the corpses myself, so maybe Barrick's right, but I have videotapes of the corpses.\nHUSTLER: Your book also mentions Bush and intelligence failures prior to September 11, right?\nPALAST: CIA and FBI agents told BBC Television, for which I was reporting, that they were ordered not to investigate Saudi Arabian financing of terror networks such as al Qaeda. The FBI agents \"accidentally\" left a file about the Bin Laden family on the desk of one of my researchers. They called up and said, \"Oops, we left our file on your desk by accident. You haven't read it, have you? Well, we'll be back to pick it up in 30 minutes-unless you need 45.\" The FBI agents handed us material dated September 13, 2001, two days after the attack. It was on that date that the FBI was finally released to go after two members of the Bin Laden family, who they had already identified as being involved with a suspected terrorist organization. But by September 11th, they were flown birds.\nHUSTLER: What happened to other members of the Bin Laden family living in the U.S. after 9/11?\nPALAST: Just after the no-fly restriction was lifted, a private Saudi Arabian jet airlifted the Bin Laden family members out of the country before the FBI could talk to them. Everyone thinks there's just one black sheep in that family, but the FBI agents were telling us at BBC they think there's a couple of gray sheep, and they had some questions for the family members. There were a lot of people dead under the rubble at that moment when those people left.\nHUSTLER: What had American policy been regarding the Bin Laden family prior to the Bush Administration?\nPALAST: Bill Clinton had already put a go-slow on investigations of Saudi Arabian financing of terror networks. Clinton had always taken the position that we can't annoy our dear friends, the Saudis, even if our dear friends happen to be funding terrorists like the al Qaeda network; however, he never actually stood in the way of investigating them, whereas George W., according to FBI and intelligence agents, said, \"You can't go there. You may not look. You may not investigate the American Bin Ladens.\"\nHUSTLER: So the FBI and CIA agents were pissed at George W.?\nPALAST: They are furious. He blindsided our intelligence agencies. How could a trillion-dollar intelligence operation like the CIA not foresee the most deadly attack on America since Pearl Harbor? The answer is not because Bush knew about September 11 in advance. Rather, they were told not to look because of connections that are political, personal and financial between the Bushes and the Saudis. When these agencies were told not to look, there was a lot not to look at. There was a 1996 meeting between the al Qaeda financial arm, Saudi billionaires and key international arms dealers. There was a discussion about which Saudis would pay how much to al Qaeda. Now if I can find out about it, and the French intelligence had a mole in the meeting, you can bet that our trillion-dollar CIA could find out about it; so why wasn't there follow-up? Why wasn't there action? How about a note to the Saudis saying, \"Do us a favor: Stop giving money to people who are killing us.\"\nHUSTLER: What about the Bin Laden and Bush connections to the Carlyle Group?\nPALAST: The Bin Ladens were investors in a very private and a very exclusive operation called Carlyle, which is an investment group. Carlyle is one of the biggest private corporations on the planet; so they report to no one, and they're responsible to no one, except their little coterie of owners, which is made up of an ex-president and dictators. Daddy Bush worked for, and still continues to be on a retainer for, the Carlyle Group, representing the company in Saudi Arabia and in Asia. His son, our President, was also put on the board of one of the companies owned by Carlyle, Caterair, and he was paid on the order of $50,000 for them to access his great business acumen. Caterair went under, but they never asked for their money back.\nHUSTLER: What about George W.'s oil ventures?\nPALAST: He had several oil ventures and could never find oil in Texas, which is almost impossible, as you know. On the other hand, he had a company, Spectrum Seven, which was bought out by another company, Harken Oil. Before that, he had Arbusto, which means shrub. He could never find oil, this guy. But he did find Saudi Arabians who put money into Harken and got him on the board where he was paid consulting fees. Then, despite the fact that the company seems to be going south, a miracle occurred. That is, the Bahraini government insisted on giving Harken Oil a contract to drill in the Persian Gulf. This is a dry-land Texas company suddenly being given an offshore oil lease by a country that had previously been doing business with Amoco. They picked this little, teeny company out of nowhere, which of course has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the guy was the son of the President of the United States.\nHUSTLER: What about Hugo Chavez, the president of Venezuela? Was the CIA really involved in the attempted coup last April? And how did that relate to oil?\nPALAST: What's not discussed in the American press is that the president of Venezuela, who they say is a Communist and a dictator, was, in fact, elected in a democratic election. In that regard, it's worth noting that our President's spokesman said, \"Winning a majority of the vote does not make your government legitimate.\"\nHUSTLER: Who should know better?\nPALAST: [The U.S. government has] been working on getting rid of Chavez, because he's not only president of Venezuela, he also got to choose the president of OPEC, and I haven't read that anywhere in the U.S. press. He controls the biggest pool of available oil. Saddam Hussein's oil fields, if we do invade, will be in flames. Where do we get the oil to make up for the losses in a war? One place, Venezuela, which pulled our bacon out of the fire during the Arab oil embargo of the '70s.\nHUSTLER: Didn't Chavez piss off U.S. oil companies by restructuring his deal with them?\nPALAST: Here is a guy who said, \"Look, I've got a nation where millions of people are living in cardboard houses. We're raising the price of oil, I'm taking over OPEC, I'm putting it back together, and I'm gonna take that money and rebuild the ghettos of Caracas,\" which he did. And that cost a lot of money, which he got by doubling the royalties on foreign corporations taking out the oil. They were getting 16% royalties-this is the Venezuelans' own oil, after all-and Chavez said, \"We'll take 30%. You get 70%. Is that a deal?\" The response from the Bush Administration was to get the guy kidnapped. And our ambassador, a political toady named Charles Shapiro, ran down from the U.S. Embassy to put his arm around the guys who are literally holding the president of the country hostage. You have to imagine what this looks like to the rest of the people in the world. Of course, we didn't see that. We're not permitted to find out what's happening in our news media.\nHUSTLER: What has happened to the the news media in this country?\nPALAST: I vomit every time I see Tom Brokaw.\nHUSTLER: And Dan Rather-\nPALAST: I feel sick at heart when I see Rather, because he's actually a journalist. He came on my program, Newsnight [in England] and said, \"I can't report the news. I'm not allowed to ask questions. We're gonna send our children and our husbands into the desert now, and I can't ask a question, because I will be lynched.\" This is what Rather said in London. He looked defeated and awful, and I was thinking, Why am I feeling sorry for this guy who is worth millions? He should turn to the camera and say, \"Well, now for the truth. Over to you, Greg, in London.\" The problem is that he can't report the story of the intelligence agents who are told not to look at the Bin Laden family, not to look at Saudi funding of terror.\nHUSTLER: What makes Rather afraid to do his job?\nPALAST: It's not just that there are brutal shepherds like Rupert Murdoch out there to beat the dickens out of any reporter that asks the wrong questions; it's all about making news on the cheap. You know, for some of these editors, cheap and easy is a philosophy of life. To do a heavy-duty story on Bush, and his oil and Bush and his gold-mining company is beyond them. A little bit of the Harken stock scandal came out, but that story was already seven years old. To some extent they know that there are certain things you cannot say. Rather says he would be necklaced for telling the truth.\nHUSTLER: He said that? What did he mean?\nPALAST: In South Africa, under apartheid, if someone didn't like you, they put a burning tire around your neck. That was called \"necklacing.\" On my show, Rather said, \"If I ask any questions, I'll be necklaced.\" And I'm thinking, Oh, that's a good image. It's sad, but if Dan Rather doesn't have the cajones to ask a question, then you name a reporter who's gonna step out and ask about what's going on. It's not that the corporate guys say, \"Don't run that story,\" although that has happened to me many times in North American media, but also the shepherds pick the lambs who won't ask the questions. For example, there was a reporter, some poor producer, who wanted to run a story about how Jack Welch had lied about polluting the Hudson River. The story didn't run. Shockeroo. That was for Dateline NBC, owned by General Electric, of which Jack Welch was the chairman of the board. Or as in the case of Venezuela, I was stunned to come back from Caracas to find a picture on the front page of the San Francisco Chronicle of 100,000 people marching against the president of Venezuela. Sounds like he's a terrible guy and people hate him. What they didn't say was that half a million people were marching for him. At least the Soviet Russians knew that the stuff in Pravda was coming out the wrong end of a toilet, whereas, we live under the pretense that The New York Times prints all the news that's fit to print.\nHUSTLER: I won't read The New York Times. That publication has no credibility with me.\nPALAST: The New York Times ran a story, front page, the first week of September 2001, talking about gold-mining companies in Nevada and how they seem to be getting let off the hook by the Bush Administration on environmental rules. They didn't mention two things in that front-page article: They didn't mention the owner of the big gold mine-Barrick-and they didn't mention who had been on their board-the President's Daddy. I brought that up to an editor of the Times. They said, \"How dare you. No one has ever accused The New York Times of cowardice,\" and [former Times writer] Seymour Hersch leaned over to me and said, \"That's the guy who had me pushed out of the Times.\"\nHUSTLER: They haven't really told the truth about Bush and the 2000 election, either.\nPALAST: I've got brand-new, deeply evil stuff about that in the new book. What happened was that, five months before the election, Katherine Harris, acting under orders from Jeb Bush, knocked 57,000 voters off the rolls. They were suspected of being evildoers and felons and, therefore, not allowed to vote in Florida. Here's the news: Of the 57,000 people, 97% were innocent of crimes, but they were guilty of being black. Half of them were African-American or Hispanic-in other words, Democratic voters. Was the state guessing who the the people of color were? In Florida, it's like South Africa; they list your race right on your registration. There was no guessing. These people not only lost their vote, but lost their president. BBC figures Gore lost 22,000 votes this way, but you didn't read that in the U.S. press. You didn't read in the U.S. press that they say they're going to allow the voters back on in 2003. That means that they were screwed for the election of 2002 as well. I ran the story of the theft of the election on the BBC. Then a hotshot with CBS News calls me and says, \"Oh, that's a great story, can we have a piece of it? We want something new.\" I said, \"Yeah, I got something for you: Jeb Bush's office, the governor of Florida, is involved in knocking off the voters too, not just Katherine Harris, and there's a letter dated September 18, 2000, which directs county-election officials to deliberately violate the law and not register a bunch of people who are Democrats. These are people who committed crimes in other states. Jeb can't legally stop them from voting, but he did anyway. And he knows that these people are Democrats, because there's something about going to jail that turns people [into] Democrats, about 93% [of ex-cons vote Democrat.]\nHUSTLER: So, people who were either black or who had previously gone to jail were just automatically eliminated?\nPALAST: Right. Jeb sent out the letter anyway, September 18, 2000, despite two court orders saying he couldn't do that. I had an insider in his office, some poor woman, shaking, saying, \"I gotta read you this letter.\" She knew about the court orders. Okay, so I said, to CBS, \"That's a story.\" CBS News didn't run the story-one night, two nights. I said, \"What happened?\" They said, \"It didn't stand up.\" I said, \"How do you know the story didn't stand up?\" \"Well, we called Jeb Bush's office, and they said, 'We didn't do it.'\" Oh. Hotshot Dan Rather investigative news team. They said, \"The letter doesn't exist. It's not in the computer files; it's in no one's files, not in the governor's files. It's nowhere to be found.\" Then Katherine Harris writes a hysterical, screeching letter to Harper's Magazine, calling me twisted and maniacal, but she didn't say I was wrong. She said, \"Yeah we knocked off these people, but it's not my fault; I got a letter from the governor.\" I called up her office-I didn't say, \"This is Mr. Twisted and Maniacal\"-I said, \"Um, excuse me, I got a letter from your Secretary of State saying that she had a letter from the governor, before the election, regarding removing people from the voter rolls. Could you fax that to me?\" Suddenly, the letter that CBS says doesn't exist is faxed to me. I've got it in my hot little hands, the letter that was in Katherine Harris's desk; so CBS just took an official denial, because they're not gonna say, \"The President's brother, the governor of the state of Florida, fixed the election\"-that we had a coup d'Ztat by computer.\nHUSTLER: What can you tell us about the way the news media counted the ballots in Florida after the election?\nPALAST: ABC News ran down after I noticed that 180,000 ballots were not counted in Florida. Never counted, because they were spoiled, as they say. They were not counted because the ballots had mismarks on them. Would you be surprised to find out that most of those ballots were from black voters? Black precincts. Black counties. So Ted Koppel's team goes to investigate, and what they find is that black voters have a tough time figuring out the ballots, because they're not very educated.\nHUSTLER: That's what they actually said?\nPALAST: They reported on Ted Koppel that the reason so many black votes were voided is that, basically-in very polite, expert terms, in the way Ted always speaks from under his wig-blacks are too fucking dumb to figure out the ballots. But I went down to Tallahassee, and what I found out is that in white areas, when you have a paper ballot, and you make a mistake, it goes into an automatic reader-an optical reader. It comes back as a mistake, and you get another ballot, and you vote again. In black counties, you make a mistake, it goes into the same ballot, it's the same machine, and the ballot is destroyed. The buttons were set differently; so it wasn't that black voters were too dumb to vote. It was that the white reporters were too dumb to ask.\nHUSTLER: Isn't it true that even with the fix put in by Jeb and Harris, Gore would have won if there had been a recount of all the ballots statewide?\nPALAST: Absolutely. Walking away, Gore won. People thought that they were voting for Al Gore. What they called a ballot that doesn't count is one where Al Gore's name is circled on a paper ballot. And listen to this: People wrote in the name Al Gore because the ballot said, \"Write in candidate's name.\" And they wrote in Al Gore. If you wrote in Al Gore, because he wasn't a write-in candidate, your ballot was voided. And again, you gotta go back to the fact, it's not everybody's ballot that was voided. The blacker the ballot, the higher the chances it will not be counted, and that was the evil of it. That's the modern way: Use computers and mechanisms to steal elections, and if you know the race of a voter, you know the color of their vote.\nHUSTLER: Any final words on the state of the American press?\nPALAST: Let's put it this way: This is the 30th anniversary of the Watergate break-in, and that means it's been 30 years since the Washington Post has broken a major story. I uncovered the story of the purged voters and broadcast it in Britain within three weeks of the election. Al Gore was still in the race. The Washington Post ran my story, seven months later, nicely buried there. W. is reading it in the White House and giggling to himself.

        "raw_content": "Current measurement by real-time counting of single electrons\nThe fact that electrical current is carried by individual charges has been known for over 100 years, yet this discreteness has not been directly observed so far. Almost all current measurements involve measuring the voltage drop across a resistor, using Ohm's law, in which the discrete nature of charge does not come into play. However, by sending a direct current through a microelectronic circuit with a chain of islands connected by small tunnel junctions, the individual electrons can be observed one by one. The quantum mechanical tunnelling of single charges in this one-dimensional array is time correlated, and consequently the detected signal has the average frequency f = I/e, where I is the current and e is the electron charge. Here we report a direct observation of these time-correlated single-electron tunnelling oscillations, and show electron counting in the range 5 fA\u00961 pA. This represents a fundamentally new way to measure extremely small currents, without offset or drift. Moreover, our current measurement, which is based on electron counting, is self-calibrated, as the measured frequency is related to the current only by a natural constant.\ncharge soliton\nsingle-electron\nsingle-electron transistor\nVol. 434 7031 361 - 364",

Since an one-repetition maximum test may increase injury risk and a common N-repetition maximum test with several trials is stressful for the patient and in many cases inaccurate, in this paper a model-based approach is proposed for predicting the N-repetition maximum. The individual training intensity represented by the N-repetition maximum is predicted by means of a biomechanical model together with fatigue parameters obtained from an isometric muscle contraction measurement.",

The presence of L. confundens at a latitude of ca. 38\u00b0S as revealed by the museum material, expands its geographical distribution to the northern limit of the Magellanic biogeographical province (Balech & Ehrlich, 2008). The presence of L. santolla at latitudes as far north as 36\u00b0S was previously known (Boschi, 2000) following the subantarctic waters that run along the shelf break and sink at the Brazil/Malvinas confluence (Acha et al., 2004). The occurrence of both species at these latitudes is interesting from the biogeographical point of view because this is the only area where they co-occur. Larval dispersal from southern waters is unlikely, since larvae are lecithotrophic with limited swimming ability and epibenthic, associated to complex substrates (Tapella et al., 2012). Distribution of these lithodids is possible by adult migration (Thatje et al., 2005) and, hence, a continuous occurrence along the continental shelf increasing in depth with decreasing latitude should be expected between 37\u00b0S and 45\u00b0S. However, the present records for both species indicate disjunct distributions (i) for L. santolla in three different areas: Beagle Channel/Staten Island, Golfo San Jorge and off the Province of Buenos Aires and (ii) for L. confundens at the eastern entrance of the Straits of Magellan and Burdwood Bank, and the Province of Buenos Aires. In order to assess the exact distribution of both L. santolla and L. confundens, more sampling effort is required into parts of the south-western Atlantic continental shelf, where fisheries do not operate and for which no or little distributional data are available. On the fishery grounds, an improved identification of the lithodids captured should enhance our understanding of the exact distribution boundaries of the species, and help to identify areas where both species co-occur.",

        "raw_content": "Kant and Moral Responsibility\nTitle: Kant and Moral Responsibility\nAuthors: Hildebrand, Carl H.\nAbstract: This project is primarily exegetical in nature and aims to provide a rational reconstruction of the concept of moral responsibility in the work of Immanuel Kant, specifically in his Critique of Pure Reason (CPR), Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals (GR), and Critique of Practical Reason (CPrR). It consists of three chapters \u2013 the first chapter interprets the concept of freedom that follows from the resolution to the Third Antinomy in the CPR. It argues that Kant is best understood here to be providing an unusual but cogent, compatibilist account of freedom that the author terms meta-compatibilism. The second chapter examines the GR and CPrR to interpret the theory of practical reason and moral agency that Kant develops in these works. This chapter concludes by evaluating what has been established about Kant\u2019s ideas of freedom and moral agency at that point in the project, identifying some problems and objections in addition to providing some suggestions for how Kantian ethics might be adapted within a consequentialist framework. The third chapter argues that, for Kant, there are two necessary and jointly sufficient conditions (in addition to a compatibilist definition of freedom) that must obtain for an individual to qualify as responsible for her actions.\nHildebrand_Carl_2012_thesis.pdf 434.65 kB Adobe PDF Open",

Thus the likelihood of a student obtaining permission to pursue a second undergraduate degree in L&S is not a strong one if the student already has a liberal arts undergraduate degree (BA or BS) from UW-Madison or another institution. The intent is to make sure that seats are not taken away from eligible Wisconsin residents who have not yet earned their first undergraduate degree.\nStudents interested in earning a second undergraduate degree must consult an academic dean in the College of Letters & Science Undergraduate Academic Deans\u2019 Services. An academic dean will be looking to see if a student\u2019s second degree is substantially different from the first degree.\nStudents who have already earned a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree within the College of Letters & Science at UW-Madison or elsewhere are not able to earn another BA or BS since two-thirds of their coursework for the second degree will be the same. Thus, a student who has a liberal arts degree (BA or BS) with a major in Journalism or English is usually not considered a likely candidate for a second undergraduate degree in the College of Letters & Science if the student wants to come back to do a second liberal arts degree (BA or BS) with a major in Computer Science or Zoology.

        "raw_content": "Lessons learned from Pope Francis\nOn Saturday May 9, 2015, Gannon University in Erie, Pennsylvania awarded the degree Doctor of Humane Letters Honoris Causa to Fr. Thomas Rosica, CSB. Fr. Rosica delivered the following Commencement Address to 800 graduates and more than 4000 guests who filled the Erie Insurance Arena on Saturday afternoon.\nGannon University \u2013 Erie, Pennsylvania \u2013 May 9, 2015\nYour Excellency Bishop Persico,\nDr. Taylor, Distinguished Members of the Board of Trustees,\nProfessors and University Staff,\nFellow Classmates of the Class of 2015,\nIt is a distinct honor and privilege to stand before you today in Erie, Pennsylvania on this momentous occasion. I am very grateful to Dr. Keith Taylor and your Board of Trustees for this Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters, for making me an honorary member of your class of 2015 and an alumnus of this great Catholic University. But before we go any further, fellow graduates, I want to remind you of the heroes of today\u2019s ceremony, the real VIPs who are not sitting up here on stage but behind you and around you: your parents, families, friends, professors, counselors: those who have made great sacrifices to allow you to receive an excellent university education. Without the sacrifices, support, encouragement, love and prayers of some 4000 of them, we wouldn\u2019t be here today. Should you not stand, turn around and show them a sign of our gratitude and affection?\nI have been told that Gannon undergraduate and graduate students ending their studies today represent the worlds of humanities, education, social sciences, engineering, business, health professions and sciences\u2026 800 of you will receive associate\u2019s, bachelor\u2019s, master\u2019s and doctoral degrees. In addition to students from the United States, approximately 100 international students from over 24 countries will also receive hard earned degrees. Clearly the motto of your (our) university is being realized in our midst today: \u201cSanitas, Scientia, Sanctitas\u201d - Health, Knowledge, Holiness.\nI would like to speak with you today about the man who heads my organization \u2013 and yours, too \u2013 a 78-year old Argentine pastor whose name used to be Jorge Mario Bergoglio. He\u2019s old enough to be my father and your grandfather. Now we know him simply as \u201cFrancis.\u201d He has literally captivated the entire world since his election to the See of Peter two years ago on March 13, 2013. Elderly and often teasing the media with expressions like: \u201cI\u2019m growing old\u2026 with a few aches and pains. I may not be here for a long time\u2026 \u201d, he walks with a slight limp and is not known for fancy clothes. In fact just last Sunday on a visit to a Roman parish, he was photographed by some indiscreet Italian paparazzi who took a picture of the frayed sleeve of his white cassock and then plastered it on front pages of newspapers of Europe the following day! And yet he is one of the most youthful, dynamic, joyful human beings I have ever encountered. He is a sinner like us, relying on the mercy and compassion of God. He is not afraid.\nHe is evergreen. Let me tell you what kind of leader he is, and what we learn from him each day, and what you, graduates of the Class of 2015 can learn from his leadership, his vision, his commitment and his witness.\nFrancis is the first Pope from the Southern Hemisphere, and the first from Latin America; these are the areas of the world where poverty is so great. Francis is inviting us to become witnesses, missionaries and disciples. That is our mission today. It is not new. Francis has brought new urgency, new passion, and I would suggest, new authenticity to this mission. He has surprisingly declared that God has redeemed all of us, not just Catholics. Despite his being a brilliant Jesuit intellectual who is predisposed to eloquence with words in speeches and sermons, Francis is even more effective in his teachings via his actions and through the sheer power of his example.\nThe world and the Church love Francis because he is a witness. Many young adults find hope in Pope Francis, because he constantly reminds us of what Christ reminded us: to love one another and not judge others. He has a passion for the poor, the immigrant, the forgotten, and the \u201cthrow-aways.\u201d He\u2019s got this thing for people on the peripheries, on the fringes and borders of life. He is modeling for us the opposite of what the world models. The world thrives on manipulative, exploitative, competitive power. Pope Francis embodies nutritive and integrative power: power on behalf of the other and a power shared with others.\nHe is simply reminding us of the basic Christian message that has been around for over 2000 years. The Christian story that Francis and many others model for us, strips us down to nothing in order for us to face ourselves anew. For it often happens that those we have often written off as the throw-aways and losers are not despised or rejected. In fact these people can discover something about themselves that winners can never appreciate \u2013 that they are loved and wanted simply because of who they are and not because of what they achieve. This is revealed precisely at the greatest point of dejection when Jesus died on the cross. His resurrection is not some kind of magic trick. It is a revelation that love is stronger than death, that human worth is not indexed to worldly success.\nWe must ask ourselves at a university graduation like ours today, \u201cWhat does a Pope have to do with me on graduation day? What does someone living far away from Erie have to say to us at Gannon University? He has much to say to us because authentic Catholic Education, true Evangelization and missionary discipleship must educate and evangelize men and women into the disciplined sensitivity toward the suffering in the world whoever and wherever they may be. This is part of the education and evangelization called for by the Gospel. This is why you came to Gannon University. For without a specific Gospel-rooted effort to bring about such a religious and humane education in our educational and life situations today, we will simply graduate and form people unaware of pain, suffering and the real cost of being Christian and being disciples. Our efforts will mean precious little if we, ourselves were content to graduate from Gannon University or any other Catholic college or university magna cum mediocrity, ignorant of the Christian faith and the responsibilities and obligations that have been placed upon through our baptism.\nHere are some of Pope Francis\u2019 keys to happiness and success in his own words. In an interview published last summer in part in the Argentine weekly \"Viva,\" he listed his Top 10 tips for bringing greater joy to one's life:\nLive and let live. Everyone should be guided by this principle which has a similar expression in Rome with the saying, \"Move forward and let others do the same.\"\nBe giving of yourself to others. People need to be open and generous toward others because if you withdraw into yourself, you run the risk of becoming egocentric. And stagnant water becomes putrid.\nProceed calmly in life. Francis says that in his youth he was a stream full of rocks that he carried with him; as an adult, a rushing river; and in old age, he was still moving, but slowly, like a pool of water. He said he likes this latter image of a pool of water \u2013 to have the ability to move with kindness, humility and a calmness in life.\nHave a healthy sense of leisure. The pleasures of art, literature and playing together with children have been lost. Consumerism has brought us anxiety and stress, causing people to lose a healthy culture of leisure. Their time is \"swallowed up\" so people can't share it with anyone. We must turn off the TV when we sit down to eat in our families because, even though television is useful for keeping up with the news, having it on during mealtime doesn't let you communicate with each other.\nSundays should be holidays. Workers should have Sundays off because Sunday is for family.\nFind innovative ways to create dignified jobs for young people. We need to be creative with young people. If they have no opportunities they will get into drugs and be more vulnerable to suicide.\nRespect and take care of nature. Environmental degradation is one of the biggest challenges we have. \u2026I think a question that we're not asking ourselves is: \u201cIsn't humanity committing suicide with this indiscriminate and tyrannical use of nature?\u201d\nStop being negative. \"Needing to talk badly about others indicates low self-esteem. That means, 'I feel so low that instead of picking myself up I have to cut others down.'\" \"Letting go of negative things quickly is healthy.\"\nDon't proselytize; respect others' beliefs. We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes. \u2026The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.\"\nWork for peace. We are living in a time of many wars, and the call for peace must be shouted out. Peace sometimes gives the impression of being quiet, but it is never quiet, peace is always proactive and dynamic.\nShortly after his election to the See of Peter two years ago, Francis startled the world in early July 2013, when he traveled spontaneously to the island of Lampedusa off the coast of Sicily \u2013 to that dangerous area were so many refugees have lost and continue to lose their lives in their journeys to freedom and safety. The Holy Father\u2019s voice rang out across the sea as he asked the world to reflect on the tragic situation unfolding there on a daily basis:\n\u201cThe culture of comfort, which makes us think only of ourselves, makes us insensitive to the cries of other people, makes us live in soap bubbles which, however lovely, are insubstantial; they offer a fleeting and empty illusion which results in indifference to others; indeed, it even leads to the globalization of indifference. In this globalized world, we have fallen into globalized indifference. We have become used to the suffering of others: it doesn\u2019t affect me; it doesn\u2019t concern me; it\u2019s none of my business!\u201d\nFellow classmates, today as you graduate from Gannon, you are not becoming part of that massive globalization of indifference that is out there. You are entering rather into a globalization of compassion and mercy, of goodness and charity, of encounter and friendship with human beings, especially those who have so much less than you do.\nPope Benedict XVI said in Deus Caritas Est,\u201cBeing a Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction.\u201d Because you have encountered the person of Jesus during your years at Gannon, whether you are Catholic or Protestant, religious, spiritual or nothing at all, you met the Lord present here in Erie and you will encounter him in countless situations in the future. Your life will change forever when you determine not just what you would like to have in life or what you want to become, but when you decide who and what you are committed to being in this world\u2026 being for others.\nUse whatever life gives you at this moment to become the person of whom you have dreamed. Success is the result of making and keeping small promises: decide to hold yourself to a higher standard, decide to contribute, decide to choose your own attitude rather than allowing the environment to control you.\nDo not worry about making a mistake or choosing the wrong path now and then. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. What you leave behind is not as important as how you've lived. Know that you will learn from your mistakes and every wrong attempt is simply another step forward on the journey. When you fall, be sure to get up again. It is the journey that is the reward. It is God\u2019s unending mercy that gives us new energy.\nSeveral weeks ago at the funeral of a good friend and a great American Church leader and wonderful pastor, Cardinal Francis George, OMI, of Chicago, we were reminded at his farewell of something very moving and beautiful that he once told a group of young adults at their confirmation:\n\u201cThe only thing we take with us when we die is what we have given away... the only things that endure are our relationships with God and with others... we give him all that we have, and he takes the gift and calls us when he is ready to do so...\u201d\nOur relationships with the Lord and with each other are all that endure \u2013 all else goes to the grave. It doesn\u2019t matter what our vocation, profession or even our religion is; let us all keep these words deep in out hearts and emulate and be inspired by the extraordinary leader that is Pope Francis!\nCardinal George said of Pope Francis: \u201cHe often contrasts our planning with God\u2019s providence. Pope Francis reminds us that the final horizon is God\u2019s infinite love. It can never be completely responded to; but as the years here go shorter, it fills in with the realization that, just as we pray to see God face to face, so God wants to see us face to face. We give him our time, which is all that we have, and he takes the gift and calls us when he is ready to do so.\u201d\nLet me end with these words \u2013 my prayer for you on this momentous occasion \u2013 the graduation of the Class of 2015 of Gannon University:\nMay you employ your power for peace,\nyour experience and wisdom to reconcile,\nyour compassion to heal,\nyour hope to destroy despair,\nyour very weakness to give strength.\nRemember your most precious possession is yourself.\nGive it away lavishly.\nAnd in doing so you will be blessed with Sanitas, Scientia and Sanctitas: Health, Knowledge and Holiness, all the days of your life.\nFr.

        "raw_content": "Experiments, Freechos\nDo you know something about the life in Peru, Lima?\nHow do you think is it to live in a slum house?\nHow is it in your opinion to live in a low life-standard?\nThis project is about one simple night without a roof, without money and without any fridges for food.\nAll about the Project\nA night without a roof is an outdoor activity, where young boys and girls are building their own carton houses and sleeping in them for one night. Round about the carton, we were cooking and selling cakes as well.\nWith this action, we want to show the world (and experience ourselves), how the people in slums in Peru have to live every day. We want to open their eyes and let them think about what they can do to save Peru, to save the world.\nThis Project was in Pf\u00e4ffikon ZH, right before the Migros.\nThis Project was organised by an OK-team (I am involved) of the evangelic church of Pf\u00e4ffikon and supported by Tearfund . But it wasn\u2019t a Christian activity, our main reason to do this was the Attention to help the People in Peru.\nIt took a few Meetings to fix the whole Program. Our Team was made of about five volunteers and two leaders. We had the Advantage, that this was not our first night without a Roof, the last one has been two years ago.\nOur biggest Problem was to find hundreds of cartons to build our houses. It would have been a shame if there wasn\u2019t enough. We had to phone some Enterprises and ask them for some carton. Most of the Enterprises were really critical \u2013 last but not least we did it!\nWhen the coaches and the teens met first, we didn\u2019t know, how we\u2019ll fit together. To introduce ourselves, we first played a game with coal to make us look like poor people. Two strangers asked me if I had an accident! After the game we started to collect money for our mission in Lima and sold cake in front of the Migros. The price wasn\u2019t a fix one, so everybody could choose a price and the money he or she wanted to spend in this project him-/herself. For our teens this step wasn\u2019t an easy step because they didn\u2019t have contact with costumers in their daily life.\nThe next thing they had to collect was rice, which we cooked with water and few salt in the afternoon. Before we were able to cook, we played another game near the lake of Pf\u00e4ffikon ZH.\nAfter our really poor meal, we listened to an interesting presentation of one of the members of Tearfund. Furthermore, I asked her one important question after the presentation:\nWhat can we here in Switzerland do to help the people in the slums except spending money?\n\u201cOne option is to use your mobile as long as you can and don\u2019t always buy a new one. If you buy one, try to search for an occasion and not a brand new. In addition, you can try to eat less meat. Because meat needs very much of the world\u2019s food resources, which we as humans could eat or use! If you buy some food, search for fair trade Food (banana, chocolate). And search for seasonal Food, don\u2019t buy any strawberries in winter! With these little things you can change a lot!\u201d\nThe night began and it got really cold. Our teens have been freezing and tried to get warm beside the fire. They realizes what kind of luck they have to live in Switzerland with that good conditions and a roof above their heads. Unless the troubles, they were happy. This showed us that a poor life doesn\u2019t have to be an unhappy life.\nNobody slept very well and for a long time but all in all, it was a perfect experience to all of us.\nTearfund (tearfund.ch) is a Christian organisation, its foundation was in 1984. The Name Comes from \u201cThe Evangelical Alliance Relief Fund\u201d. Their aim is to help poor people with education and social acting.\n\u201cNacht ohne Dach\u201d (nachtohnedach.ch) is one of the programs of Tearfund.\nLife in the slums in Peru and how Tearfund helps\nBecause living in Peru isn\u2019t easy many of the kids were left alone by their families and they have to look for themselves on their own. Mostly, they become criminals to survive and didn\u2019t visit any School. Tearfund builds up schools and courses, as well for parents to learn how to accept each other (woman often get hit by their men!!!)\nFamily in Peru\nNew schools in Peru\nevent \u201ca night without a roof\u201d\nWould you try a night like this?\nChantal Despont\nM15a, 31.05.2018\n\u201cLive simply so that others may simply live\u201d \u2013 Tearfund\nMay 31, 2018 June 15, 2018 Freely Rooflessexperience\n5 thoughts on \u201cA night without a roof\u201d\nFirst of all, I think you have choosen a very interesting topic! I think many people in switzerland often forget about poorer countries and therefore it is important to speak up for those who maybe cant.\nMaybe it would have been interesting if you recorded the whole project or took a little more pictures.\nBut anyway, I think you did a great job and im impressed of your courage!\nJessica Steiner says:\nYour project is really interesting and now I\u2019m more aware about the life in Peru, especially how to live in a low life-standard. I believe that for people who live in Switzerland is is quite unimaginable how to live in poverty. The organisation Tearfund was something I\u2019ve never heard before but after reading some articles about it I really find it a very useful organisation and a great idea!\nFlavio Leu says:\nI haven\u2019t read the article yet but I want to answer your questions at the beginning of your writing..\nTo be honest I have no idea about Peru as a country, I had to google where it is just now. I believe that people in Switzerland, especially young people including myself, don\u2019t truly realise how great our lives are and how high our standard of living is. So I can only imagine how it feels like to live in poor conditions.\nI read your article and I really like the fact that you want to raise awarness for this issue which concerns a lot of countries.\nThe project \u201cNacht ohne Dach\u201d seems to be a really clever way to get other people\u2019s attention. I worked as a donation collector for some days and I know how difficult it is to draw people in so that you can talk to them about our world\u2019s problems.\nI\u2019ve never heard about the organisation Tearfund but after browsing through their homepage I\u2019m glad they exist. Its really interesting to see what kind of jobs the people have who represent the organisation.\nI honestly enjoyed reading your article. It was easy to follow and I didn\u2019t lose interest at any point. It\u2019s important that we know how we can help the situation you described, so the quote of the Tearfund member who you\u2019ve interviewed is a very nice addition to your article.\nAfter doing some research about Peru myself, I found out that the Amazon River actually flows through parts of the country. I care a lot about animals and saving the Amazon Rainforest would mean saving the natural habitat of a lot of endangered species. So here\u2019s a link on what we can do, to save the Amazon Rainforest:\nhttps://www.adventure-life.com/amazon/articles/what-can-i-do\nI may not 100% agree with you when you say that a poor life doesn\u2019t have to be an unhappy one, because I\u2019m not sure if we as swiss people actually know what poverty feels like.\nIn the end, I think you wrote a great article and I hope that it can motivate more people to fight for a good cause.\nSuarez says:\nThank you for your informative contribution. It moves me that this project wanted to deal with the living conditions of poorer people in Peru. I would immediately try one night without a roof, but I already had enough during my time in the army. ;-)!\nWhat would certainly have been very impressive would have been video recordings of the project team or the living conditions in Peru.\nI find your project very exciting. Not many would have the courage to actually carry out the project. The contribution is very clearly arranged and well to read by the different paragraphs. You reported well what you did before the night, but maybe you could have reported a little more about the night itself.\nAll in all I find this a very cool project and the article worth reading.\nPrevious Previous post: The \u00abyellow\u00bb side of aluminium\nNext Next post: How an industrial company can look after the environment!",

        "raw_content": "Nonlinear Dispersive Elastic Waves in Solids: Exact, Approximate, and Numerical Solutions\nRomik Khajehtourian, University of Colorado at BoulderFollow\nMahmoud I. Hussein\nCarlos A. Felippa\nWave motion lies at the heart of many disciplines in the physical sciences and engineering. For example, problems and applications involving light, sound, heat, or fluid flow are all likely to involve wave dynamics at some level. A particular class of problems is concerned with the propagation of elastic waves in a solid medium, such as a fiber-reinforced composite material responding to vibratory excitations, or soil and rock admitting seismic waves moments after the onset of an earthquake, or phonon transport in a semiconducting crystal like silicon. Regardless of the type of wave, the dispersion relation provides a fundamental characterization of the elastodynamic properties of the medium.\nThe first part of the dissertation examines the propagation of a large-amplitude elastic wave in a one-dimensional homogeneous medium with a focus on the effects of inherent nonlinearities on the dispersion relation. Considering a thin rod, where the thickness is small compared to the wavelength, an exact, closed-form formulation is presented for the treatment of two types of nonlinearity in the strain-displacement gradient relation: Green-Lagrange and Hencky. The derived relation is then verified by direct time-domain simulations, examining both instantaneous dispersion (by direct observation) and short-term, pre-breaking dispersion (by Fourier transformation). A high-order perturbation analysis is also conducted yielding an explicit analytical space-time solution, which is shown to be spectrally accurate. The results establish a perfect match between theory and simulation and reveal that regardless of the strength of the nonlinearity, the dispersion relation fully embodies all information pertaining to the nonlinear harmonic generation mechanism that unfolds as an arbitrary-profiled wave evolves in the medium.\nIn the second part of the dissertation, the analysis is extended to a continuous periodic thin rod exhibiting multiple phases or embedded local resonators. The extended method, which is based on a standard transfer-matrix formulation augmented with a nonlinear enrichment at the constitutive material level, yields an approximate band structure that is accurate to an amplitude that is roughly one eighth of the unit cell length. This approach represents a new paradigm for examining the balance between periodicity and nonlinearity in shaping the nature of wave motion.\nKhajehtourian, Romik, \"Nonlinear Dispersive Elastic Waves in Solids: Exact, Approximate, and Numerical Solutions\" (2017).

        "raw_content": "Why better operators receive worse warnings Academic Article\nDescriptions of a dynamic warning system usually assign the system certain diagnostic values. Operators should adjust their responses to these values when considering the output of the system for their decisions. This approach is not necessarily appropriate for complex systems that are controlled by human operators. Here the operators' actions are likely to change the frequency of events that should trigger a warning. Consequently the operator will change the predictive value of a warning system that is imperfectly correlated with the monitored events. In general its diagnostic value decreases for better operators. This phenomenon is demonstrated on the example of binary warnings about binary events, and an empirical demonstration of the phenomenon is provided in an experimental study of a process control task.

        "raw_content": "Cronos Group: Time To Take Profits\n| About: Cronos Group, Inc. (CRON)\nby: Taylor Dart\nLong/short equity, momentum, gold & precious metals\nCronos Group looks to be exhibiting signs of a short-term climax top (3-6 months).\nThe stock has run up over 140% the past 30 trading days, and is now nearly 130% above its 200-day moving average.\nThis area looks like a wise spot for traders to take partial profits on their positions.\nWhen it comes to upside momentum, the cannabis sector has been separated by the haves and the have-nots over the past six months. While many have lay relatively dormant, trading mostly in wide ranges \u2014 like Tilray (TLRY) and Cannabix Technologies (OTCPK:BLOZF) \u2014 a few names have catapulted higher in powerful uptrends. Cronos Group (CRON) is one of those names, and this recent surge has certainly been impressive. The only problem is that moves of this magnitude can end up creating short-term climax tops in stocks. The current move higher in Cronos Group is beginning to show signs of this, and this looks like a prudent area to book partial profits for traders.\nSource: TC2000.com\nCronos Group is one of the few marijuana stocks that has a positive earnings trend on the way, as well as Canopy Growth (OTC:CGC), Aphria (OTC:APHA), and Aurora Cannabis (OTC:ACB). This is a positive development for the stock, as up until this year Cronos had not put up any meaningful years of positive earnings per share. This year however, Cronos is expected to show $0.06 in annual earnings per share, a significant jump from the -$0.03 last year, and $0.02 in 2017. While this places the stock at a P/E ratio near 350 at current prices, I do not believe that P/E ratios are suitable for valuing hyper-growth stocks. Some of the best investments of the past half century started out at astronomical P/E ratios like Yahoo and America Online, and still went on to return 2000%+ returns. As we can see in the table of past earnings and forward estimates below for Cronos Group, analysts are expecting a new high in annual earnings per share for fiscal-year 2019.\n(Source: YCharts.com, Author's Table)\nThe previous high in annual earnings per share was $0.02 in 2017, and 2019 expects to see triple that amount at $0.06 in annual EPS. This jump in earnings per share is also supported by sales growth which is always a positive sign. As can be seen from the below table I've put together, quarterly sales have increased every single quarter, as has the two-quarter average for sales. I like to use a two-quarter average for assessing a trend in sales as it smooths out any single quarter readings.\nData source: YCharts.com; author's own table.\nThe above table shows us that quarterly sales for Cronos Group have increased nearly 100% over the past eight quarters, from $0.4 M in Q4 2016 to $3.8 M in Q3 2018. The two-quarter average for sales is also up significantly, up from $0.45 M in Q1 2017 to $3.6 M in Q3 2018, and at new highs. These are certainly reasons to be bullish on the stock long-term if these trends can continue.\nFinally, Altria's (MO) recent investment Cronos Group is certainly a plus as it further validates the company's business plan with a mega-cap company taking a massive stake of 45%.\nSo why with all these positives would one even consider selling any of their shares? To answer this, we need to move over to the technicals.\nAs we can see from a weekly chart of the stock above, there is no question that Cronos is in an intermediate uptrend, and this long-term trend will remain alive as long as the stock does not break below $11.00 per share. The problem is that the stock is now over-extended above this trend-line, and even the strongest stocks rarely go up in a straight line. Not only is Cronos Group over 150% above its 200-day moving average which is where the stock reversed from in September of last year, it's also up over 130% in less than 30 trading days. This does not mean the stock has to crash or that a pullback must occur, but the odds certainly favor that at this juncture. For this reason, I believe this is a wise spot for traders to take partial profits in the stock. This means selling between 1/4 to 1/3 of positions, and trading around the core of the position. If the stock ends up going higher, one will still have the majority of their position. If the stock ends up pulling back as the charts suggest, one can choose to look for an opportune spot to add back some exposure if they wish.\nFinally, taking another look at the stock from a daily chart, we can see the stock has headed outside of its medium-term bollinger bands. The past three times the stock went outside of its bollinger bands to this degree, pullbacks were sharp over the next 10-20 trading days. These pullbacks occurred in late August 2018, and early December 2018. While the stock did eventually head higher, the stock suffered pullbacks of 30% or more in 10 trading days or less. History does not have to repeat itself and this time could be different, but I believe that any further strength in the stock short-term has a high odds of being sold into.\nBased on the technical picture being very overheated in the short term, I see this as a good opportunity to take partial profits in Cronos Group for traders. Investors may choose to hold onto their shares and not sell out, but my style is to book profits when things start to get ridiculous, and Cronos Group has now gone parabolic short-term. This does not mean the stock has to top at $23, and ultimately the stock could easily go higher, but short-term a pullback is the most likely scenario.\nWhile there is no disputing that Cronos Group may have a decent runway long-term based on its positive sales and earnings trends, short-term it's getting a little over-heated. I have no problem with the stock's valuation as P/E is an absolutely useless way of measuring growth stocks in my opinion, especially stocks with hyper-growth like Cronos Group if it meets 2019 EPS estimates. Having said that, the technicals are suggesting that a good chunk of the fundamentals are being baked in at current prices, and this rally may already be on borrowed time.\nSo what are the risks to this thesis?\nI am not suggesting shorting Cronos Group. While it could head lower, shorting high-growth stocks with momentum behind them is a dangerous game. I do however believe that this is a wise time for traders to take some profits. The risk in this of course is missing out on additional upside, or not being able to buy back those shares. I see this as a very small and calculated risk as the suggestion is to take partial profits for those who believe in the company, not to sell out their full position.\nBulls have a lot to be happy about here with Cronos Group in the top 1% of strongest stocks on the US market, a year of potential positive annual EPS ahead, and accelerating sales. The trouble is that the stock may be getting ahead of itself and no one ever went broke taking a partial profit in a parabolic uptrend. If I held the stock currently, I would sell one-third of my position, or more, at current levels above $23.\nFollow Taylor Dart and get email alerts",

Sepsis can occur as the result of antimicrobial resistance, and is the driving need for antimicrobial stewardship. Antibiotics are the only really effective treatment for sepsis; for every hour before the correct ones administered, risk of death increases.\nBut that is not the case for all illnesses, and this demonstrates the need to preserve antibiotics for conditions that really need them; nearly 40% of E.coli\u2014the bacteria that causes a huge number of infections\u2014are now resistant to antibiotics, and these organisms account for up to one third of episodes of sepsis showing the vital need for responsible use of antimicrobial drugs.\nGlobally, there are 30 million cases of sepsis each year and the global birth rate is 80 million. If we run out of antibiotics that bacteria are not resistant to, it may well tip the scales of population growth.\u201d",

        "title": "Training for Teaching Assistants at Duke",
        "raw_content": "Training for Teaching Assistants at Duke\nLearning to teach is an important part of the education of our mathematics graduate students and being a teaching assistant is an important part of both their professional development and financial support. Mathematics graduate students typically begin their teaching responsibilities during their first year of graduate study when they serve as lab assistants and work in the help room. Beginning in their second year, they teach their own section of 20-35 students, typically a calculus class meeting 3 hours a week, with a weekly laboratory session supervised by two teaching assistants. The teacher training program for graduate students has been ongoing since fall, 1987. The program is coordinated by Jack Bookman, a full-time instructor in the mathematics department, in consultation with the Director of Graduate Studies and the Supervisor of First-year Instruction.\nDuring the week before classes begin in the fall, the graduate students who will be serving as lab assistants participate in a week-long workshop led by Lewis Blake, Supervisor of First-year Instruction. In this workshop the participants are introduced to Duke's laboratory calculus course. This workshop is designed to enable graduate students to begin their work as lab assistants.\nDuring their first year of graduate study, all graduate students participate in a weekly teaching seminar led by Jack Bookman. There are two related purposes of the seminar: (1) to prepare the graduate students to teach introductory calculus courses here at Duke and (2) to introduce the graduate students to some of the educational issues that they will need to know about and act on if they are to become effective college mathematics faculty. The activities of the seminar include:\nA discussion of what constitutes good teaching and how undergraduates learn mathematics.\nObservations of lessons taught by experienced teachers.\nDiscussion of observations.\nHow to organize lessons: planning, time management, homework .\nOverview of content of our Calculus courses with emphasis on what students find difficult.\nMaking up hour exams.\nGrading exams.\nCurrent issues in undergraduate mathematics education.\nMeeting of first-year graduate students with the graduate students teaching for the first time to discuss the problems of first year teachers.\nOffice hours, how to start the semester, rules and regulations, services available to freshmen.\nPresentation of a 15-minute practice lesson.\nTwo lectures given to real calculus classes. These presentations are observed by the department's coordinator of teacher training or a faculty member designated by him. There is a follow-up discussion. and when possible, the students who were taught by the graduate student complete a short evaluation consisting of three questions: What was best about the instruction?; What was worst?; What would be one suggestion you would make to the TA to improve the TA's teaching?\nMost of our graduate students begin teaching their own classes (usually a section of Calculus I or II) during the fall of their second year. During the semester that a graduate student begins teaching his or her own classes, they are observed twice--once during the second week and once during the third week. These observations are followed up with a discussion. The observations are made by various regular rank, tenured faculty and by full time instructors. If the quality of teaching is satisfactory, no more observations are made, but if problems are perceived, another observation will be made to see if the suggestions are being implemented. At the end of that first semester of teaching and after the graduate student reads his or her students' Teacher-Course Evaluations, the graduate student will write a self-evaluation describing his or her perceived strengths and weaknesses and discussing ways to improve. The Teacher-Course Evaluations and the self-evaluations serve as the basis for a discussion between the new teacher and the coordinator of teacher training. If there are no major problems, this point marks the end of their training. If problems are evident, a program is designed to help that individual graduate student improve his or her teaching.\nLast modified: 1 Aug 2007",

        "raw_content": "Rejection: it can happen to any career-seeker. Let\u2019s find out another reason why, and what you can do once it happens to you.\nThe vacancy got cancelled at the last minute.\nThis is an uncommon but totally legitimate reason for rejecting job applications. There are a couple of driving factors for this. On one hand, the company may no longer need the position to be filled because they are distributing its responsibilities to other related positions. On the other hand, they may have decided that it\u2019s better to have an existing employee transferred to that position. In the latter scenario, it could mean that the replacement\u2019s previous position would be left vacant for new candidates.\nBe professional. This is the number one response to any business situation. Think calmly and act with the courtesy that you would wish to be given. Remember that the people who decided to reject you are only doing what their company requires from them. They were not the ones who decided to cancel the vacancy, but they must follow the directions given to them.\nAsk for clarification. Asking for clarification may help you determine \u2013 without directly asking \u2013 that the recruiter is telling the truth and not just making up an excuse for rejecting your application.\nCourteously ask for other possible opportunities. If you were able to clarify the situation with the recruiter, you could find out if other vacancies opened up especially if the company decided to just transfer someone to fill the now-cancelled vacancy. That person\u2019s previous position could now be vacant. Remember to avoid sounding too entitled, and as always be ready for another interview or two.\nRemind yourself that the vacancy was cancelled. It\u2019s not a question of your qualifications, but of the company making a valid business decision at its discretion.\nKeep your lines of communication open. The company may contact you sooner than you think, especially if new positions opened up because they just decided to transfer an existing employee to the previous vacancy. Be open to working with them again; and if another vacancy you applied for gets cancelled, remember that they\u2019re not doing it to intentionally reject you.\nCompanies can make some last minute decisions that affect the opportunities they have available. It\u2019s a business decision that they have every right to make, and as long as they\u2019re not discriminating against you or anyone else then they\u2019re not doing anything wrong. The best way to respond to this is to keep communication open, because one door closing could mean others will open up. Besides, that employer isn\u2019t the only one out there. Keep your options flexible and do your best to find other opportunities.",

        "raw_content": "Implementing unnecessarily-strict rules for Internet usage\nWorkplaces have become modernized beyond the expectations of preceding generations. Breakthroughs progressed at such a rate that the professional applications of technologies became wider and more encompassing, particularly information and communications technologies. Members of an organization have so many tools available to access, modify, and transmit information necessary for operational activities. Most of these tools are reliant on modern networking technology; in other words, they function because of the World Wide Web a.k.a. the Internet.\nNaturally, allowing workplaces to have Internet access creates the possibility that the technology will be used for non-work activities. That\u2019s a given risk, and in no way is it to be taken lightly. Improper use of online access in the workplace can result in an untoward incident that can damage the organization\u2019s internal morale or its good standing among clients.\nBut there has to be a redefinition of the boundaries of Internet use in the workplace. We say a redefinition because there are existing guidelines that no longer apply. The dynamics of any workplace today are much different from those of past generations, and content and media that used to be unacceptable are now normal. These media can even be tangent to the lives of professionals, both as members of the workforce and as part of the general populace.\nThere are still companies that penalize employees for viewing news websites, which are excellent sources of information on events that affect every aspect of people\u2019s lives including work. Passage of industry-related laws, economic developments, weather and environmental conditions, and even trends and pop culture can dictate how professionals think, speak, decide, act, and pursue their business objectives on a daily basis.\nSources of self-learning are also unnecessarily restricted or prohibited. It\u2019s a given that professionals must already be proficient at doing what their job description dictates. But what if they encounter a scenario that cannot be resolved in the way they traditionally do? The Internet, in particular video hosting websites, can provide access to either text-based or video tutorials for unique solutions to unusual problems, especially for skill-based jobs.\nExcessively conservative workplaces also deny employees the chance to mentally re-energize through social media and sources of entertainment. Yes, these websites must not be accessed while actually doing work. However, with proper implementation of a system for viewing them only during specific break times, organizations can contribute to reducing burnout and mental fatigue among its members.\nThese restrictions and prohibitions must be reconsidered, especially if they are hindering an organization\u2019s professionals from becoming more effective performers. And it\u2019s about time: we\u2019re about to end the second decade of the new millennium, after all.",

        "raw_content": "Andrew Luck takes a step back in his second preseason game, but teammates don't help\nIn a perfect world, Andrew Luck would have added on to what he did last week and looked ready for the regular season. You could have drafted him with full confidence for your fantasy team.\nBut Luck\u2019s comeback will have some ups and downs. When a quarterback misses a year-and-a-half due to shoulder surgery, it\u2019s probably best to not expect him to step on the football field and dominate like he never left.\nLuck took a step back on Monday night against the Baltimore Ravens. He misfired on some passes, held the ball too long on other plays, threw an interception on a forced pass in the red zone and didn\u2019t lead a touchdown drive. The only points the Indianapolis Colts scored in his quarter-and-a-half of work came on a 57-yard field goal from the amazing Adam Vinatieri.\nAndrew Luck couldn\u2019t get the Colts in the end zone on Monday against the Ravens. (Getty Images)\nThough Luck wasn\u2019t at his best, it\u2019s also fair to point out that he didn\u2019t have much help.\nColts were banged up around Andrew Luck\nLuck will hopefully have more help when the games start. Top receiver T.Y. Hilton was out with a shoulder injury, and the Colts don\u2019t have the depth to make up for that. The Colts were short on the offensive line; left tackle Anthony Castonzo was held out. Indianapolis was also without running back Marlon Mack, and the running game did almost nothing when Luck was in the game.\nColts receivers dropped passes, Luck was under consistent pressure and there was no balance to the offense. So it might not be fair to judge Luck too harshly.\nIt\u2019s also not like the Colts are going to turn into a Super Bowl contender before Week 1. The running game probably won\u2019t be that good no matter who is healthy enough to run the ball. The group of receivers will rely too heavily on Hilton. The offensive line won\u2019t be great. A lot is going to be on Luck\u2019s plate this season because the roster around him is still a work in progress.\nLuck struggles a bit against Ravens\nLuck\u2019s final line wasn\u2019t good. He went 6-of-13 for 50 yards and an interception. The interception came when Luck rolled to his right, didn\u2019t have anyone open but tried to squeeze in a pass and it was tipped up by cornerback Anthony Levine.\nLuck had some nice throws. He stepped up in the pocket on one play and threw a dart to tight end Jack Doyle for a first down. Another pass to Doyle running down the seam came on a nice read and gained 16 yards. But he looked a lot rustier overall than last week at Seattle, when he went 6-of-9 for 64 yards.\nLuck is learning a new system under coach Frank Reich. He wasn\u2019t working with a full lineup of starting-caliber players around him on Monday night. And he has played just a few dozen plays dating back to the end of the 2016 season.\nIt might take time before Luck gets back to the level he set his first few seasons in the league. Monday night was a reminder that patience will be important.\nIndianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck struggled a bit in his second preseason game against the Ravens. (AP)",

        "raw_content": "Longwood House, Napoleon\u2019s residence on St. Helena\nOn December 10, 1815, former French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte moved to Longwood House on the British island of St. Helena. He was confined there until his death, five-and-a-half years later. What did Napoleon think of Longwood?\nSatisfied at first\nNapoleon arrived, as a British prisoner, at St. Helena in October 1815 with such little advance notice that there had not been time to prepare a secure long-term residence for him (see my post about Napoleon\u2019s arrival at St. Helena). The island\u2019s East India Company governor, Colonel Mark Wilks, recommended Longwood House \u2013 a rambling one-story farmhouse that was serving as a summer residence for the island\u2019s lieutenant-governor Colonel John Skelton and his wife. Longwood lay on a windswept plateau about five miles from the island\u2019s main settlement of Jamestown. It had the advantages of being isolated and clear of large vegetation, and thus easy to keep an eye on. It was also near a plain called Deadwood, where the regiment guarding Napoleon could live.\nThe day after his arrival, Napoleon went with British Admiral George Cockburn to look at the place. According to Napoleon\u2019s valet Louis-Joseph Marchand:\nThe Emperor arrived at Longwood, and was not particularly enchanted with the house that enjoyed no shade or water, and was exposed to the southeast wind that prevailed there constantly, and was quite strong at the present time. He immediately realized all the work remaining to be done for him to take up residence there, and paid little attention to everything the admiral would say regarding construction projects and improvements. The only advantage he saw there for himself was that it was a plateau extending several miles that would allow him to ride and even go out in his carriage if they were willing to cut paths through the woods of gum trees that stood a short distance from the house. (1)\nWhile Napoleon stayed at the Briars, carpenters and crew from HMS Northumberland, aided by soldiers, repaired and enlarged Longwood House to accommodate Napoleon, his companions and servants. On December 10, Napoleon moved in.\nAt the entrance of Longwood, we found a guard under arms, who rendered the prescribed honours to the august captive. The Emperor\u2019s horse\u2026was startled at the sound of the drum; he refused to pass the gate, and it was only by the help of the spur that his rider succeeded in forcing him to advance\u2026.\nThe Admiral [Cockburn] took great pains to point out to us even the minutest details at Longwood. He had superintended all the arrangements, and some things were even the work of his own hands. The Emperor was satisfied with everything, and the Admiral seemed highly pleased. (2)\nMarchand, who had arrived ahead of Napoleon, noted:\nThe Emperor changed nothing in my arrangement of the furniture. In place of a large bed that had been put in his room, he told me to substitute his field bed, as it was an old friend he preferred to all others. This change was made while he was in his bath into which he had jumped with childish joy. The bathtub was a tremendous oak chest lined with lead. It required an exceptional quantity of water, and one had to go a half mile away and transport it in a barrel. I informed the Emperor that it had taken an extremely long time to heat this bath, as the furnace was much too inadequate for the bathtub. A few days later, due to Dr. O\u2019Meara\u2019s efforts, another bathtub was brought from town that held less water\u2026. (3)\nView of Longwood House, attributed to Louis-Joseph Marchand, 1819\nUnhappy to the end\nNapoleon and his suite soon became unhappy with their new quarters. Complaints included the damp and stuffy rooms, a rat infestation, the lack of shade, and exposure to the wind. Conditions at Longwood became a constant source of irritation between Napoleon and St. Helena\u2019s new governor, General Hudson Lowe, who arrived in April 1816. Napoleon thought he should have been offered the governor\u2019s residence, Plantation House, an elegant, well-furbished mansion set in a beautiful park, like an English country house.\nOn July 8, 1816, General Charles de Montholon wrote to Governor Lowe on behalf of Napoleon:\nLongwood is the most unhealthy part of the island. There is no water, no vegetation, no shade. It has never been possible to establish a kitchen garden there: the soil is parched up by the wind: in consequence this part of the island is wild and uninhabited. If the Emperor had been settled at Plantation House, where there are fine trees, water, and gardens, he would there have been as well placed as this wretched country will allow\u2026. The idea of adding wings to the bad building of Longwood, would involve all kinds of inconveniences. It would be enlarging a ruin, and occasioning for five or six months all the annoyance of workmen. Nothing is wished for at Longwood, but repairs. For two months it has rained into the rooms of Count Las Cases and Baron Gourgaud, rendering those lodgings very unwholesome. There should be at Longwood a reservoir of water, to serve, in case of fire. The roofs are mostly of pitched paper; and a single spark might burn down the house. A great quantity of linen, and other effects, have been rendered useless by the rats; and for this want of wardrobes and drawers. The books, brought by the Newcastle, have been, for fifteen days, exposed to the same damage, for want of bookcases or shelves, to place them on, &c. (4)\nLongwood had always been intended as a temporary residence for Napoleon. In 1818, construction began on a new house for him, not far from the old one. Napoleon wanted nothing to do with it. His second valet, Louis \u00c9tienne Saint-Denis, observed:\nBefore the work was begun the governor had sent the plan of the house and all its outbuildings to General de Montholon, that he might submit them to the Emperor, who would make any changes and corrections in them which he should consider necessary. But the Emperor would not hear of these plans spoken of and even had the governor told that he earnestly begged him to let him alone; that he, Napoleon, did not need any house other than that in which he lived, which was all that he needed for the time which was left him to life; that when the building was ready he would need nothing but a coffin. (5)\nBy January 1821, the new Longwood House was finished.\n[T]he Emperor, in spite of the disgust he felt at the idea of changing his residence, decided to go and become acquainted with the place which was destined for him\u2026. He examined everything in the greatest detail, praised the good arrangement of the apartments, their size and their character as a whole, but found that his quarters were not well fitted for his use; he found that he was too far from his valets de chamber, whom he liked to have under his hand. According to the English custom, everything had been sacrificed to the master. Except for some garrets, which were over his rooms, there was not a spot near him where Marchand could be lodged.\nAfter going over and examining everything, the Emperor went home and told M. de Montholon what he desired to have done in order to have two members of his household service near him, Marchand and me. The details of what His Majesty wished were transmitted to the governor. The workmen had hardly finished the changes which His Majesty had ordered when the illness which was to take him from us assumed a very serious character. (6)\nDistant view of Longwood, by R. Cocking, from a sketch by C.I. Latrobe, 1818\nNapoleon died on May 5, 1821, in the original Longwood House. After going through a period of dilapidation, the house was restored and is now a museum owned by the French government. There is more information and photos of Longwood on the Saint Helena Island Info website. For some great photos of the bicentennial re-enactment of Napoleon\u2019s move to Longwood, visit What The Saints Did Next. New Longwood House was destroyed in 1947. To read more about it, see John Tyrrell\u2019s Reflections on a Journey to St. Helena. For a look at Napoleon\u2019s expense account at Longwood, see the excellent article by Lally Brown on A Covent Garden Gilflurt\u2019s Guide to Life.\nLongwood House is where the opening chapter of Napoleon in America takes place. You can read that chapter here.\nVignettes of Napoleon\u2019s Final Months\nLouis-Joseph Marchand (Proctor Jones, ed.), In Napoleon\u2019s Shadow (San Francisco, 1998), pp. 343-344.\nObservations on Lord Bathurst\u2019s Speech in the House of Peers on March 18, 1817 (London, 1818), pp. 96-97.\nLouis \u00c9tienne Saint-Denis, Napoleon from the Tuileries to St. Helena, translated by Frank Hunter Potter, (New York and London, 1922), p. 230.\n2 commments on \u201cNapoleon and Longwood House\u201d\nIt is curious that he was not eager to get away from the rats.\nI think the rats and other drawbacks of Longwood House actually served Napoleon\u2019s purpose of presenting himself as a martyr on St. Helena. If he had moved to the new house, built especially for him, it would have been harder for him to claim that the British were treating him horribly.\nLongwood is the most unhealthy part of the island. There is no water, no vegetation, no shade....

        "raw_content": "Warsaw Muslim centre attack renews Islamophobia fears\nWarsaw, Poland \u2013 On the night of Monday, November 27, two men in hoodies vandalised the Muslim cultural centre in Warsaw, breaking windows with stones and pieces of concrete.\nThe attack took place amid deepening Islamophobia in Poland, where Muslims comprise a mere 0.1 percent of the population.\nCCTV footage confirmed the incident, but in the darkness of night, the attackers\u2019 faces are unrecognisable.\n\u201cI hope that the perpetrators will be caught soon\u201d, said Mariusz Blaszczak, minister of interior.\nSo far, the men have not been named.\n\u201cThis was not the first attack against our centre,\u201d said Anna Lukjanowicz, a Polish convert to Islam who works at the institute, citing three previous attacks.\nIn October this year, a masked man threw a bottle against the front door, leaving visible marks.\n\u201cRecent events are part of a politically fuelled, unpleasant atmosphere of xenophobia and racism in Poland,\u201d she told Al Jazeera. \u201cBecause of the verbal and physical attacks against not only Muslims, but also people who \u2018look like Muslims\u2019 \u2013 that is people with a darker skin, and the attack against the Muslim Culture Centre, Muslims living in Poland are losing the sense of security.\u201d\nCompleted in 2015, the centre\u2019s architecture blends Middle Eastern tradition and European trends.\nIt hosts conference halls, a library and the largest prayer room in Poland, with space for 600 people.\nAt the beginning of 2017, the centre\u2019s employees wrote to Polish officials, including the president, the prime minister, both chambers of parliament and all parliamentary parties, expressing their concern with the \u201cbiased media coverage of Islam and its people\u201d as well as the \u201cconsolidation of anti-Muslim attitudes\u201d in the political debate.\nAccording to the authors, these could lead to the increase in xenophobia and violence against Muslims.\nIn, 2016, police figures revealed the second highest number of hate crime incidents after 2015, with 765 reported cases of violence. In 2014, police recorded 262 incidents.\nIn 2016, local prosecutor offices investigated 1,631 hate crimes fuelled by racism, anti-Semitism or xenophobia.\nSince 2015, the number of attacks against Muslims rose from 192 to 362, followed by attacks against Jews and Roma people.\nIn May 2016, Prime Minister Beata Szydlo abolished an anti-discrimination council that was tasked with preventing xenophobia and intolerance.\nThe Muslim cultural centre\u2019s letters generated little response from the authorities. In the only reply, in spite of evidence to the contrary, the office of the Senate said physical attacks against the centre were unlikely.\n\u201cFacts from the Polish tradition and history show that Christian Orthodox people, Protestants, Jews, Tatars, Ukrainians and Belarusians lived in peace with Poles in our country, making a great contribution to its development,\u201d the response read.\n\u201cApart from reporting on worrying events, which take place in some countries of Western Europe, we have not noticed any references towards the Muslim community, which has been living in Poland for years, that would be worth condemning\u201d.\nHowever, according to Anna Tatar from the anti-racist Never Again Association, which has been monitoring hate crime incidents in Poland since the 1990s, the political narrative in response to the refugee crisis has contributed to the increase in anti-Muslim sentiment in Poland.\n\u201cThe main reason for this change is the way the Polish debate about the humanitarian crisis and the possible acceptance of refugees was conducted. This is a problem which does not concern Poland at all because there are almost no refugees here, but the hysterical way in which the issue was discussed, used and manipulated for political ends has contributed to the increase in violence,\u201d Tatar said.\n\u201cThere are a number of examples of statements made by representatives of the authorities, which show that they do not want to see the problem or that they neglect it. For example, at the recent \u2018Independence March\u2019, a number of openly racist banners were present. Yet, there was virtually no explicit condemnation of the events,\u201d she said, an opinion shared by the wider Muslim community.\nSome 60,000 people joined the \u201cIndependence March\u201d attended by some nationalists and fascists in Warsaw on November 11 \u2013 more people than the Polish Muslim population of around 35,000 \u2013 where chants included: \u201cThe whole Poland sings with us: f*** off with the refugees.\u201d\n\u201cPublic media and nationalist internet sites discriminate against Islam and Muslims and manipulate the public opinion, trying to convince Poles that Islam is a religion of violence, terror, that it is primitive,\u201d said Imam Youssef Hadid, Chairman of the Supreme Council of the Muslim League in Poland.\n\u201cThere are debates and lectures which spread hatred towards Muslims, people who are invited to speak at them have xenophobic and Islamophobic views, have no knowledge of Islam, and those who specialise in it are not invited.\u201d\nA study by the Center for Research on Prejudice published in September 2015, found that although 80 percent of Poles do not know any Muslims, two-thirds declare that they would feel uncomfortable in their presence.\nMore than half of respondents stated that Muslims threaten Poland\u2019s economic well-being and Polish values, and a similar number agreed with Islamophobic statements. Younger respondents demonstrated a higher level of fear.\n\u201cWhat we are currently observing is a moral panic. Polish society is easy to manipulate. Public opinion polls show that we are the first in the EU when it comes to viewing social media as a reliable source of information about the world. Over half of Poles trust social media,\u201d said Adam Balcer, a Warsaw-based researcher for the European Council on Foreign Relations. \u201cThe Polish internet is very right wing and nationalistic, and as a result, Polish youth has a negative attitude towards Muslims.\u201d\nSince the country has one of the most ethnically and religiously homogenous societies in Europe with a small Muslim minority, the right wing plays on irrational fears.\n\u201cThe authorities, which are openly Islamophobic, set the example. This falls on a fertile ground of fears and phobias, which reflect some deeply rooted stereotypes,\u201d said Balcer.\nHe compared the current atmosphere to the interwar period and the existing attitudes towards Muslims to the earlier situation of Jews.\n\u201cA Jew used to be portrayed as oriental, the other, an eastern man, incapable of assimilating and integrating, who could destroy the nation,\u201d he explained.\n\u201cThose cliches only had to be revived. You can see them in the current fears of the Law and Justice\u2019s electorate which include the alliance of [George] Soros and the Germans to destroy Poland\u2019s ethnic cohesion by bringing in refugees\u201d.\nFollowing the attack at the Muslim cultural centre, some Poles sent messages condemning the incident and expressing solidarity. Others arrived at the scene and brought candles.\nOn November 29, a group of activists organised a protest in Warsaw under the slogan \u201cNo to Islamophobia\u201d.\nRepresentatives of the Jewish community have also expressed their regret concerning the attack, acknowledging the rise in negative attitudes towards minorities in Poland.\n\u201cPoles are a hospitable nation, they are tolerant and respectful of people of other faiths, but unfortunately politics pushes them to spread nationalism and hate towards Muslims,\u201d Imam Hadid said.\n\u2190 Jared Kushner is wreaking havoc in the Middle East\nMan jailed for 15 years for hate crimes after leaving bacon in mosque \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Aidan David Cromwell found guilty of murdering Marc Bernard Tremblay in retrial\n'Justice has been served,' said Tremblay's mother\nJury deliberations begin Tuesday in the fatal stabbing of Marc Bernard Tremblay Ian Gibb\nFor the second time, a jury has found Aidan David Cromwell guilty of murdering Marc Bernard Tremblay in 2012.\nThe jury found Cromwell guilty of second-degree murder in Nova Scotia Supreme Court Wednesday afternoon, after a day of deliberations.\nCromwell, 24, stabbed 25-year-old Marc Tremblay in the heart on Feb. 2, 2012, near Ashdale Avenue and Titus Street in Fairview. Marc Tremblay was drunk and yelling insults at Cromwell and his girlfriend before Cromwell ran at him with a knife.\nMembers of the Tremblay and Cromwell families sobbed loudly when the verdict was announced.\nJury deliberations begin in Cromwell murder trial (November 27, 2018)\nCromwell showed his frustration as he was led out of the court, saying, \u201cwhere\u2019s your justice?\u201d\nCromwell was originally found guilty of second-degree murder in 2014. The Nova Scotia Court of Appeal overturned the conviction in 2016. They ruled the original judge failed to properly instruct the jury on how to interpret evidence related to Cromwell\u2019s actions after the stabbing.\nThe retrial began on Nov. 13.\nDuring the trial, the defence argued Cromwell was acting in self-defence or was provoked, based on Marc Tremblay\u2019s behaviour. The jury\u2019s verdict means the Crown was successful in proving beyond a reasonable doubt Cromwell wasn\u2019t acting out of self-defence or provocation.\n\u2018He was my life\u2019\n\u201cOther than burying my son, this is the hardest thing I\u2019ve ever had to do,\u201d said Marc Tremblay\u2019s mother, Rose Marie Tremblay, outside the courtroom.

        "title": "African-American people - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia",
        "raw_content": "racial or ethnic group in the United States with African ancestry\n(Redirected from African-American)\nAn African-American generally refers to a person who lives in the United States and speaks English, but whose ancestors were from Africa. It could also describe a first generation African immigrant who has citizenship in the United States. More rarely, it is used for people of African ancestry who live elsewhere in the Americas.\nThe term is usually associated with \"black people\". This is because of many African-Americans' dark skin due to having Sub-Saharan African ancestors. Many Africans were brought to the United States in the slave trade. Many of the U.S. population (especially in many urban or city areas) are African-American. Many others live in rural areas in the Southern United States. Detroit has the highest percent of blacks in the nation.\nAfrican-American refers to a specific range of diverse cultures with a common thread of ethnic connection to Africa. This term was created to describe an ethnic/cultural link to Africa for people who are American, much as in the case of Italian Americans, Irish Americans, or Polish Americans. The difference is that Italian Americans and Polish Americans know they are Americans of Italian or Polish (not general European) descent.\nThe 'African' in African-American acknowledges the connection to a number of African cultures, not one in particular. The 'American' shows the nationality and culture of the United States. A person born in Nigeria is still Nigerian even if he or she comes to the United States and lives here for the rest of their life. If that person wants to say that they are an American citizen, they would simply say \"I am an American citizen\". His American-born children could correctly call themselves Nigerian-American OR African-American.\nLanguage and societyEdit\nWith their American born children came the first generation of English speaking African Americans. But this development was not the same all over the country. For example; even today the Gullah People of the Sea Islands off the Carolina and Georgia coasts still speak a language that is a blend of several African languages. They are the descendants of slaves from different countries in Africa.\nIn the United States when Americans say African-American or Black, they are referring to the same people. Both terms describe an ethnic group that came to exist in the United States. The Africans who were brought to America as slaves were from different nationalities and did not all speak the same language. They became a new blended ethnic group with a new language that was not their own: English.\nBlacks used to be segregated in schools but since the 1960s were able to join major schools, colleges and universities. In the second half of the 20th century, reading-ability rates for blacks increased.\nBlackEdit\nIn America, and from an American point of view, the term 'Black' is often applied to other ethnic groups throughout the world who do not necessarily see themselves as Black. African American culture was born in the United States and is distinct from any single African culture.\nAfrican-American is a term that many Black people chose to call themselves because they found the term \"Negro\" offensive.\nIn America there are many immigrants of mixed race that includes African descent, like Cape Verdeans, Dominicans and Puerto Ricans. These groups, by and large, do not think of themselves as Black or African American and object to these labels.\nMany mixed race Americans also resist pressure to identify themselves as Black or White.\nFrank Ocean is an African American\nAfrican Americans have influenced various forms of music, including Hip hop, R&B, funk, rock and roll, soul, blues, and other contemporary American musical forms while older black forms of music included blues, doo-wop, barbershop, ragtime, bluegrass, jazz, and gospel music. Michael Jackson, an African-American pop singer, released an album called Thriller in 1982 which is the best-selling album of all time. In the nineties Beyonce Knowles became famous as the lead singer of the R&B girl band Destiny's Child. In the 2000s she started releasing music on her own. Her first album Dangerously in Love sold 11 million copies and won five Grammy Awards.\nSoul food is a cuisine popular with African Americans. The most famous example of soul food is fried chicken.\nBlack culture has been the subject of documentaries. For example, the award-winning Black Is, Black Ain't explores black identity. Good Hair discusses the significance of having 'good hair' for black women in American culture.\nThere is a National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington D.C.\nProtestant Christianity is the most practised religion by African Americans.\nTheir suicide rate is increasing. Race mixing with White people, Asians and Latinos especially Puerto Ricans, Mexicans and Dominicans is common in the United States.\nWikimedia Commons has media related to African Americans.\nRetrieved from \"https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=African-American_people&oldid=6371965\"",

        "title": "The GOP's tax bill is a Piketty nightmare come true.",
        "raw_content": "The True Lesson of the Tax Bill: This Country Is for Rich People\nU.S. Speaker of the House Rep. Paul Ryan talks to President Donald Trump as Senate Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell and Sen. Lamar Alexander look on during an event to celebrate Congress passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.\nIf ever there was a piece of legislation designed to guarantee that r stayed greater than g, it\u2019s the Republican tax bill.\nRemember \u201cr>g\u201d? It was the notation Thomas Piketty made briefly famous in his book Capital in the 21st Century, the French economist\u2019s shorthand for the dangers that accumulated wealth could pose to society. When the rate of return (\u201cr\u201d) on capital assets like stocks, bonds, real estate, or factory equipment jumps higher than the rate of economic growth (\u201cg\u201d), he argued, we should expect inequality to swell.\nPiketty\u2019s theories aren\u2019t exactly gospel these days. But I\u2019ve been thinking about them a lot as I watched the GOP\u2019s tax bill gallop towards passage (and not only because Piketty himself has been raging about it). After all, the plan is designed specifically to reward wealth\u2014to make sure that corporate shareholders and private business owners can pocket more of our national income each year, before passing it onto their children, with only the flimsiest economic rationale to justify this. It\u2019s a real-time demonstration of how growing inequality paves the way for moneyed interests to exert ever more control over politics and the economy, leading to the kind of world dominated by capital and inherited wealth that Piketty has warned about.\nWealth inequality has already been on a steady rise in the U.S. for years\u2014according to the Federal Reserve Board\u2019s Survey of Consumer Finances, America\u2019s top 1 percent of households own more of the country\u2019s net worth than they have at any time since the study first started in 1989. As outrageous fortunes have grown, we\u2019ve seen billionaires like the Koch Brothers and Sheldon Adelson and the Mercer family\u2014not to mention many smaller, but still rich donors\u2014pour ever more money into politics. The question has been whether their efforts would ever actually bear fruit for their businesses.\nThis is a nontrivial issue for the future of inequality and the economy. If corporations and business owners can keep the profits flowing by investing in politics, it means they can outrun the natural economic forces that might, over time, reduce the returns on their wealth. As we\u2019re seeing this week, their investments in the GOP are paying off.\nIt\u2019s true that the rich do well in general under the Republican plan\u2014in 2025, a quarter of its benefits go to the top 1 percent of taxpayers, 85 percent of whom will get a cut that year, according to the Tax Policy Center. But the bill is especially devoted to bulking up business profits. Republicans are reducing the corporate tax rate tremendously, dropping it from 35 percent to 21 percent, which will let CEOs shower their shareholders with more buybacks and dividends.\nThey are also offering a large break for so-called pass-through businesses, such as the Trump Organization or your local NFL franchise, which aren\u2019t subject to the corporate income tax. Not counting the bill\u2019s one-time levy on profits that companies like Apple and Google have stashed overseas, the business tax changes Republicans are enacting make up around two-thirds of their legislation\u2019s $1.46 trillion price tag. Toss in the bill\u2019s changes to the estate tax, which will double the amount of money today\u2019s wealthy can pass on to their kids tax free, and you get a big, gold-wrapped Christmas gift for capital. \u201cR\u201d is going bonkers next year.\nAnd what do the rest of us get in return? Republicans have promised a burst of economic growth and higher wages for workers, as companies plow their profits into investments, such as new assembly lines or office buildings. But almost nobody outside the White House or Congress is really expecting a boom. While many mainstream economists think the corporate tax cuts will boost the economy slightly\u2014we\u2019re talking less than one tenth of a percentage point per year, by some estimates\u2014pretty much none believe they will generate enough growth for the bill to pay for itself, as GOP lawmakers have insisted it will, or lead to the kind of stupendous pay raises for the middle class that the administration has advertised. As for the pass-through breaks that will benefit our president? We\u2019ve seen this movie play out already in Kansas, where state legislators finally repealed a similar tax scheme this year, after it led to spiraling deficits and rampant tax dodging while failing to produce any detectable economic growth.\nAs bad as the bill\u2019s economics are, its politics seem to be worse. Somehow, Republicans have written a bill that gives away $1.5 trillion that less than one-quarter of Americans approve of. Some of that may be a messaging failure; about 32 percent of Americans said they expected to pay more in taxes under the bill, whereas only about 5 percent should next year. But it\u2019s also possible voters just hate the bill because, as survey after survey has shown, corporate tax cuts have always been unpopular. There\u2019s a good reason for this: Only about half of families own any stocks at all, and just one-third own more than $10,000\u2019s worth. Most families don\u2019t have much of a portfolio to speak of, and after years of watching big businesses lap up profits while wages stagnated, they don\u2019t believe their fortunes are connected with corporate America\u2019s. And for the most part, they\u2019re right.\nAll of which leaves us with the overriding question: Why? Why would Republicans pass a bill so wretchedly unpopular to benefit such a small slice of Americans? Some lawmakers, like South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rep. Chris Collins, have bluntly admitted that their donors simply demand it. Others, like House Speaker Paul Ryan, may be true believers in conservative economic dogma. And others could be self-interested: The Senate originally planned a smaller pass-through cut, until Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson threatened to kill the whole effort unless it was expanded, an expansion that may benefit his family\u2019s own business interests.\nBut the overarching reason is the same: The Republican party answers to the interests of wealth. Lawmakers listen to their donors. They listen to conservative think tanks like the Heritage Foundation or Hoover Institution, which are funded by the wealthy to create an intellectual justification for deeply regressive policy making. And sometimes, they just listen to their own accountants. The result is a tax code that favors the interests of entrenched money. After three decades of rising wealth inequality, business owners and investors are finding new ways to extend their run. The question now is how the rest of us can stop them.",

Amazon\u2019s object and facial recognition software, which the company claims offers real-time detection across tens of millions of mugs, including \u201cup to 100 faces in challenging crowded photos.\u201d After its launch in late 2016, Amazon Web Services started marketing the visual surveillance tool (which it dubbed \u201cRekognition\u201d) to law enforcement agencies around the country\u2014including partnering directly with the police department in Orlando and a sheriff\u2019s department in Oregon. But now, as April Glaser reports, civil rights groups are pushing back. Last week, a coalition including the ACLU, Human Rights Watch, and the Council on American-Islamic Relations, sent an open letter expressing their \u201cprofound concerns\u201d that governments could easily abuse the technology to target communities of color, undocumented immigrants, and political protestors. Though Amazon may not be the first contractor to partner with police on surveillance, it\u2019s one of the first major tech companies to do so\u2014and has us watching out for what the Amazon-ification of law enforcement may bring us next.\nRekognition wasn\u2019t the only thing keeping Amazon in the news cycle. Last week, an Amazon Echo also made headlines after it was reported to have recorded a private conversation between a couple in Portland, Oregon, and then sent the recording to someone on their contact list. Though the incident seemed to come down to the A.I. misinterpreting a series of commands, Rachel Withers explains how it should be a reminder to Echo owners that their digital assistant Alexa is \u201calways ready to listen.\u201d\nSurveillance and A.I. also play a big role in the latest installment of Future Tense Fiction, \u201cSafe Surrender.\u201d In it, Meg Elison tells the story of a hybrid human searching in the collective memories of a city\u2014its inhabitants, its politics, its surveillance systems\u2014to try to discover why their parents surrendered them when they were 3 days old. In response to the story, tech privacy expert Laura Moy explores the ways technology can be used to promote equity\u2014or to preserve an unequal status quo.\nOther things we read while thinking about Twitter\u2019s good old days:\nSpring cleaning: The EU\u2019s General Data Protection Regulation may have flooded your inbox with privacy policy updates\u2014but don\u2019t delete them just yet, writes April Glaser.

        "title": "Stan McChrystal - there is no spoon",
        "raw_content": "Stan McChrystal\nIf you read one magazine article on the war in Afghanistan this month, this is a good one to pick. It's a bit long, and filled with bias, but also very entertaining, interesting, informative, and thought provoking:\nEarlier this week, before the article came out publicly, I heard that McChrystal was called into the Oval Office to defend himself and explain the article to Obama. My first thought was, \"What is this, 5th grade? If you say nasty things behind the teacher's back, you get sent down to the principle's office... but I guess if you're a 4 star General and you get drunk with a bunch of guys from Rolling Stone and make a few inappropriate remarks, you get sent down to the oval office?\" I hadn't seen the article, but I felt fairly sure Obama would just give him a stern lecture and send him back to Afghanistan to finish the job. I was surprised and had to re-evaluate my assessment when I learned a day or two after that the outcome of the Oval Office meeting was his resignation and replacement by General Petraeus. Now that I've finally read the article, I find myself questioning Obama's wisdom in replacing him again.\nThere were a lot of lines I considered quoting from the Rolling Stone article, but there's too much there to focus on any one thing. I'll just make some general comments.\nI suspect that Michael Hastings of Rolling Stone constructed a lot of the narrative here, painting both McChrystal and Obama in a particular light deliberately, and selecting choice comments from him and his top aides that fed into the defiant \"runaway general\" narrative. But still, he provides enough anecdotal support for that narrative that it's hard to imagine it's not at least half true.\nIt sounds like Stan apparently has always been rebellious, and was quite the troublemaker at West Point... always having a bit of a problem with authority, and wanting to do things differently than his superiors wanted, modernizing tactics, etc. I found myself wondering whether that's the worst kind of person to have in the military or the best kind. Either way, it's pretty interesting.\nRolling Stone I think has traditionally leaned towards an anti-war stance, so a lot of the article seems a bit slanted towards criticizing the futility of the war. McChrystal himself, on the other hand, they actually paint as seemingly a pretty awesome guy. Reading the article, not only do I find myself admiring him for his rebellious spirit and his tendency for saying whatever is on his mind rather than being polite. But I also find myself admiring and sympathizing with him on doing what appears to have been a top-notch job on the very difficult problem of trying to minimize civilian casualties. Perhaps the most interesting part to me is hearing how hostile some of his subordinates are to him, because of his strict \"don't shoot unless you're absolutely sure it's not a civilian\" policy. According to a lot of his men, this policy of his puts all of their lives in danger. While I think there is something to be said for both sides there, I really sympathize with the difficult task he must face in having to convince them that it's worth it to be careful, even if it puts your own life in danger. I cannot imagine having a job that stressful, or having to walk that fine of a line every day while getting yelled at from both sides of the fence for causing deaths due to opposite mistakes. I also tend to suspect that the dehumanization effect tends to bias soldiers towards thinking it's more insane than it is to ask them not to shoot first and ask questions later... so *probably* McChrystal is in the right here. Of course, these are the kinds of decisions that you can never know for sure... you just have to pick something that feels right, I guess, and go with it.\nThere was a Rolling Stone article only shortly before this one, which attacks Obama and blames him for \"causing\" the BP oil spill. So Rolling Stone seems to be pretty hardcore anti-Obama lately. I still question Obama's wisdom in replacing McChrystal, because it sounds like the real enemy/critic of the Obama administration is Michael Hastings and Rolling Stone, not Stanley McChrystal. Hastings from what I can tell, mostly just used a few of McChrystal's frustrations to attack Obama and call into question the entire point behind the war. Nevertheless, I can see how having an article like that out calls for a definitive response. Perhaps politically, it was the only move he could make. Or, perhaps there is more wrong with McChrystal than we know about.\nActually, there was one big negative thing in there about McChrystal... his apparent active involvement in covering up a case of friendly fire. So if you believe Rolling Stone, perhaps his motivation for being so strict about rules of engagement is more to minimize negative *publicity* surrounding civilian casualties, rather than to minimize the casualties themselves. This is disturbing, if true. But again, it's hard to tell.\nMaybe Rolling Stone is right, and the war in Afghanistan is, like Vietnam and to some extent Iraq, the kind of war we can never win... and it will just drag out longer and longer, needing more troops at each stage. But given their bias, I don't necessarily know whether to buy that. Maybe we have already made a difference. Maybe we have already made progress, despite their dismissal of the word \"progress\" as a poor substitute for \"victory\". And perhaps it is easier to pull out from there in a reasonable timeframe than it was from Iraq, because the region is not quite as unstable? I wish I knew more about this. I do feel a bit worried though, that maybe McChrystal is right, and Joe Biden is wrong... namely, that this is not a war we can \"win\" in a short time and then just go home. I really wonder what general Petraeus's thoughts are on this.\nmcchrystal,\nYour 5th grade analogy is inapt; this is more like the teacher saying nasty things about the principle in public, where students at the school can hear. Running down the boss in public will generally get you fired from any workplace, but the implications are particularly severe for a general talking about his elected, civilian commander-in-chief -- See Fred Clark and Chris Bowers on why McChrystal needed to go.\nYou do realize you're sympathizing with a war criminal, right? What'd he do at JSOC?\nDidn't realize that, no. What would you say his \"war crimes\" are?\nWhat'd he do at JSOC?\nI don't know, do you?\nYes. Remember, I'm a veteran - Airborne Infantry. I was *in* JSOC.\nAs for what he has been up to, I think I've asked this before, but don't you watch Democracy Now!?\nActually I had no idea you were a veteran. And wow, you were *in* JSOC?? That is quite interesting.\nI used to listen to Democracy Now a fair amount on NPR... didn't realize there was a video version of it. Is that something you can order or does it air somewhere? (I haven't had a tv in years, but have been considering getting one lately.)\nI have listened to several commentaries that Noam Chomsky has given recently, on Alternative Radio. And he did mention a decent amount about the war in afghanistan. Just a few nights ago, I heard him say that he suspected the real reason we were in afghanistan was to build a giant oil pipeline through there. Not sure where he is getting that from though.\nAnyway, I have never deliberately sought out these programs, I just happen to have the radio on some times and they come on... so I'm not sure when they air. For some reason, I haven't heard Democracy Now come on since I was living in Santa Cruz (a little over a year ago)... although it may just be the times when I happen to be listening.\nIt's available in most any format you might need: http://www.democracynow.org/\nI was thinking (from not having read the article) that Hastings really is the one that was being insubordinate here rather than McChrystal. But then I realized that since McChrystal hasn't publicly distanced himself from the article, it really is fair to attribute to him everything that is said in the article, including the attitude. And apparently for the military, it's very important to never publicly criticize or question your commanding officer, especially if you yourself are the commanding officer of other people.\nI still haven't read the article (I don't really trust Rolling Stone's political reporting, though it can give an interesting sensationalist slant to various things), so I don't really have any thoughts on the substance.\nhmmm... interesting point about not distancing himself. Well, I think he at least said that doing the interview was a mistake. Although I can't remember where I read that, and I suppose that falls short of saying \"this article is slander\" which you'd think he would have said if it were untrue.\nBoy do I wish I could have been a fly on the wall in the oval office, though, when he had to face Obama. Perhaps that made a difference too... like, maybe Obama figured he would decide based on McChrystal's attitude when he came in, and on how apologetic he was. And if the article is even half true, McChrystal may have had too much pride to kneel down and kiss Obama's ring and beg for forgiveness. (Ok, I'm taking some liberties with that a bit!)\nI still haven't read the article (I don't really trust Rolling Stone's political reporting, though it can give an interesting sensationalist slant to various things)\nYeah, that was my thought... the whole thing seems sensationalist and slanted, and it's more like you're listening to someone tell you a story with the occasional bit of fact here and there to link together the plot they're making up... as opposed to reporting a collection of facts. But it's a fun story nevertheless.\nAlso, I learned the word COINdinista from it, and other things about the military.\nAs I understand it, McCrystal has a good bit of contempt for the civilian leadership of the military, and yet, his job in Afghanistan is to... build civilian leadership. That, in and of itself, is problematic, but civilian leadership of the military is one of the cornerstones of democratic society. Once the military is running the military, then all bets are off, because the people with the guns are no longer civilian. This is not 5th grade.\nI haven't read the article yet, nor have I watched much news about this. However, ANY higher up in the US military who believes that undermining the President (any president) is a good idea is someone I'm alarmed by.\nHowever, ANY higher up in the US military who believes that undermining the President (any president) is a good idea is someone I'm alarmed by.\nIf anything, I think the only complaint about the President himself he allegedly made (and this comes secondhand from one of his aides) was that when he first met Obama, Obama seemed kind of nervous and intimidated by all the military people. I got the sense that if he were to criticize Obama about anything, it would be that he wasn't actively engaged enough to know what's going on. No indication that he wanted to \"undermine\" him, from what I read. Very possibly some resentment, although mostly towards others in the Obama administration that he has to deal with rather than Obama himself.\nThe War Is Futile, and Crazy\nhttp://www.amconmag.com/tactv/2010/06/28/our-afghan-war-is-crazy/\nRe: The War Is Futile, and Crazy\nSo this guy thinks that the point of the war is to hunt bin Laden, and that we've forgotten the point and it now has no point at all? He doesn't seem to understand what the Taliban is or what they stand for.\nThis guy is scary. He says that he thinks the original invasion of Afghanistan was justified because it was about \"retribution\". Wow, that's incredibly disturbing. Retribution is making someone hurt because they hurt you. That may be a valid justification for punching someone in the face after they just slapped your wife, but it is never a valid justification for war! I can see how Bush may have tapped into some rightwing sentiments there to garner support for it, but that was never the justification from either party from the point of view of the actual people in charge.\nRetribution would mean it's entirely driven by emotions, and has no rational justification. A rational justification would be that we're trying to reduce the amount of jihadists out there training terrorists and trying to encourage Muslims to take up fundamentalism, and to hate the West and take up arms against America and its allies. The Taliban does all of these things, whether or not bin Laden or the rest of Al Quaeda is still there. Is it possible for us to make much of a difference? That I don't know, but this guy is missing the point if he thinks it is all about retribution and hunting bin Laden. (Although Afghanistan certainly seems like a better place to look than Iraq if that was the purpose.)\nFair enough, I should probably have used another word.\nIs the word mujahideen any more appropriate or does that have similar cultural misinterpretation issues? I've never understood the subtle differences between those two.\nentomologist : (no subject) [+0]\ndatavortex : The War Is Futile, and Crazy [+3]",

        "raw_content": "Beijing 2008: Men 100m report // 9.69 seconds \u2013 World Record\nFor RACE ANALYSIS, including split times, and average speeds for Usain Bolt\u2019s world record, see the related posts at the bottom (or in the sidebar to the right).\nUsain Bolt delivered. Nobody else stood a chance. It was quite simply the most devastating display of 100m sprinting I have ever seen. The \u201crace\u201d that everyone (including us) had predicted never materialised \u2013 Bolt was just too good (and Powell bad, it has to be said).\nThe world record in the 100m is always a special occasion. When it comes on the biggest stage in world sport, the Olympic Games, it\u2019s that much more spectacular. And it does not get much more spectacular than the sight of a man destroying the next seven fastest men in the world, celebrating about 20m from the finish line, pumping his fist against his chest with 10 m still to go, and still breaking the world record by 0.03 seconds. Truly incredible.\nUsain Bolt winning the 100m at the Beijing 2008 Olympics. Photo by Flick user PhotoBobil.\nA race of surprises\u2026except for the world record\nThe only thing about this race that was NOT surprising was that the world record was broken. Everything else was something of a shock. Those shocks began in the semi-final, when Tyson Gay, the world champion from the USA failed to qualify after finishing fifth in his heat. That meant that the much-anticipated showdown between the three giants of world sprinting \u2013 Bolt, Asafa Powell and Gay \u2013 failed to materialize (it also made something of a mockery of my earlier pre-race prediction, which was done BEFORE the semi-final! I\u2019m going to claim that at least I picked the winner, and almost got the winning time right too\u2026!)\nIn any event, Gay\u2019s presence in the final would hardly have made a difference, so dominant was Bolt. But it is a great shame that he hurt himself in the US trials, because perhaps he might have pushed Bolt a little harder and we\u2019d have seen a 9.65s time, so comfortable was the Jamaican in the absence of any rivals in this race.\nPowell fails \u2013 slower in the final than the semi\nThe next big surprise was the failure of Asafa Powell to deliver in the final. The big Jamaican, who had beaten Bolt earlier this year, was completely unable to raise his game when it mattered, and finished a very disappointing fifth place. His time in the final? 9.95 seconds. His time in the evening\u2019s earlier semi-final? 9.91 seconds. Which means that, for the second big championships in a row, he actually ran a slower race in the final than in a qualifying heat. That performance will serve only to re-inforce the perception that Powell is not a big-race runner. Last year, we mentioned the word \u201cchoker\u201d, which is a little harsh, of course, but Powell has tried for the past year to shake that particular title. Tonight, he failed, and the title fits a little better. On second thought, perhaps his performance wasn\u2019t such a surprise, after all\u2026\nThanks to Powell\u2019s disappointing run, the minor medals were won by Richard Thompson of Trinidad and Tobago (silver in 9.89 s) and Walter Dix of the USA (9.91 s for bronze), which was the third big surprise. Both are PB\u2019s, which is as much as one could ask in a big final like this. Fourth went to Churandy Martina of Netherlands Antilles, in a national record, which would have been their first medal \u2013 0.02 seconds denied them that glory.\nBolt \u2013 the star of the show, a magnificent performance\nBut the star of the show was Bolt. The race was expected to be close, fast and exciting. It was two of the three, but \u201cclose\u201d is not a word that fits this final. In fact, the much anticipated \u201crace\u201d never materialised, thanks in part to Gay\u2019s semi-final exit and Powell\u2019s \u201cno-show\u201d. But the main reason was that Bolt was ridiculously fast.\nHis start was, as usual, not particularly spectacular. After about 30 m of running, he was mid-pack, with Thompson in Lane 5 slightly ahead of him. Powell also got off to a good start. But after about 30m, as Bolt\u2019s head came up, he took control of the race and the men who up to that point had looked competitive suddenly looked very ordinary.\nThere cannot be a runner with this kind of acceleration from 30 m in the history of the event. Of course, every generation has runners who are dangerous in the latter half of the race, but Bolt, running 9.69s, moved away from men running 9.89 s and created a 0.2 second lead by the finish line. It was astonishing sprinting.\nWhen the cameras showed the race from the front, you could see Bolt actually glancing across to his right, where he knew the big threats would come from. Bolt virtually ran the 100m Olympic Final as a tactical race \u2013 he knew where his rivals were, he created a lead between 30m and 80m, and then he celebrated.\nAbout 20m from the line, his arms dropped to his side. About 10m from the line, he leaned backwards, and gave himself a chest thump with his right hand. He crossed the line and kept running, bouncing all the way to the back straight as the crowd erupted. That celebration cost Bolt some time \u2013 who knows how much? Perhaps he was capable of 9.65 seconds had he continued at the same rhythm.\nIn the end, it didn\u2019t matter. Bolt had the time to celebrate mid race, to look natural and easy running 9.69 seconds.\nUsain Bolt \u2013 a new \u201cbreed\u201d of sprinter\nBolt is a different type of sprinter \u2013 previous champions, like Maurice Greene have been muscular, powerful, strong men, who burn up the track with the sheer force of their running. Bolt is different \u2013 he bounces, flows like water, and looks incredibly easy running faster than anyone else has ever been able to. I would love to see a biomechanics analysis of the race, but for a basic illustration of the difference, consider that Bolt took 41 steps to run the race; everyone else took 44 steps.\nWhat is the physiology that underlies this advantage? Very difficult to say\u2026explosive muscles, certainly. Muscle power, yes. But there\u2019s something there that no scientist can measure. I believe the big difference is neurological. It is the ability of the brain/central nervous system to control and co-ordinate the muscles, creating the spring. There is something called the stretch-shortening cycle, where energy that is stored on landing is harnessed during the push-off phase, so that the muscle-tendon unit acts like a spring.\nIt\u2019s possible to measure this stretch-shortening cycle activity, but not during sprinting like this. I believe (and this is a bald assertion, admittedly) that what sets Bolt apart is his muscle tendon unit, and the ability of the brain to co-ordinate the timing and sequence of muscle activation. Science can\u2019t measure this, but the next time you see a repeat of this race, watch Bolt compared to the men either side of him, and you can see it. And so just watching Bolt allows us to appreciate what it takes to be the world\u2019s fastest man.\nIn all of 9.69 seconds.\nBeijing 2008: Discovering Usain Bolt",

        "raw_content": "Previous post: Those sardines don\u2019t stand a chance.\nNext post: Where Shasha shops.\nPosted October 9, 2017 1 Comment by Dana\nChances are you\u2019ve already heard of Horatio Hornblower, Jack Aubrey, even Frank Mildmay. But how about Thomas Cochrane, the real life British naval officer upon whose life and career all of these fictional characters are at least in part based?\nThat\u2019s what I thought. Don\u2019t worry, David Cordingly\u2019s Cochrane: The Real Master and Commander has got you covered.\nThe best biographies illuminate not only their title character but the time and place in which that character lives, and this book does that in spades, with some eye-opening revelations. For one thing, I had no idea that the British Navy during the Napoleonic Wars were on the whole, well, pirates.\nOh yes, they were, and I\u2019ll tell you why. The British Navy was essentially a money-making proposition in those days. Whenever a British ship caught an enemy ship, it would be sent back to England where it would be assessed by the Admiralty and assigned a value, one-eighth of which was then shared among the officers and crew of the capturing ship. The more enemy ships they captured, the more prize money they made, and Cochrane, whose improvident father had cost the family the hereditary estate, was forever in a row with whoever was in charge about getting full value for the ships he captured.\nAn eye ever to the main chance Cochrane may have had, but he was also by everyone\u2019s account, even his enemies\u2019, of which he made many, a master mariner. Cordingly writes that some of Cochrane\u2019s actions, described in full in you-are-there prose, are still cited by naval historians as the best of their kind. He was his own worst enemy on land but at sea he was unsurpassed. He wreaked havoc with Napoleon\u2019s navy up and down the coasts of France and Spain, and not for nothing did the French call him \u201cle loup de mer,\u201d or the Seawolf.\nAshore, though, he involved himself in radical politics and made enemies of people in power, especially in the Navy. He was intemperate and mouthy, which, allied with a burning and fatal desire to achieve better pay and conditions for his officers and men, started the downward spiral. The British Admiralty just wasn\u2019t there yet. When, inevitably, he made England too hot to hold him, he went to South America, where as, sequentially, chief of naval operations for both countries he was instrumental in Chile and Brazil\u2019s wars of independence with Spain, and later and less gloriously in Greece\u2019s war of independence with Turkey.\nHe had a keen scientific curiosity and the patience for experimentation which caused him to spend a great portion of his aforesaid prize money on experimenting with, among other things, lamps, steam engines and bitumin (aka asphalt). He was a passionate and faithful husband to his not always worthy wife, and what money he didn\u2019t spend on scientific experimentation and petitions for reinstatement in the British Navy was employed to bail their worthless children out of hock.\nThis book is beautifully produced, with many detailed maps, marvelous cutaway illustrations of two of Cochrane\u2019s ships so you can practically walk the decks at his side, three sections of contemporary paintings of friends and colleagues, including many portraits of Cochrane himself at every age, ships of his time, seascapes of sea battles and ports of call and scenes of engagement. There is even a glossary at the back to teach you the difference between bombarde and bumboat, and more illustrations throughout, such as a reproduction of the recruiting poster Cochrane had made up to entice a ship\u2019s crew to the Pallas. \u201cMy lads,\u201d says the poster, \u201cThe rest of the GALLEONS with the Treasure from LA PLATA are waiting half loaded at CARTAGENA\u2026Such a Chance perhaps will never occur again.\u201d\nThat was appealing to their better natures, all right.\nCordingly\u2019s Cochrane is a rousing tale, all the more astonishing because it\u2019s all absolutely true. A wonderful read.\nBook Review Monday Chatter Cochrane: The Real Master and Commander David Cordingly\nWhat a great book review. This sounds like a very fun book too.",

What makes that remarkable is that the greenhouse is in Antarctica. And it\u2019s designed in part to help scientists learn how to grow produce on the planet Mars.\nMartian colonists will need to live off the land -- it\u2019s just too expensive to ship everything from Earth. They\u2019ll probably use underground deposits of ice for drinking water, oxygen, and rocket fuel. And they\u2019ll need to grow crops using the Martian soil.\nThat won\u2019t be easy, though. The powdery Martian dirt contains compounds that are toxic to many plants. So colonists will have to process the dirt, or dig deep to find deposits that are friendlier to life.\nAs in the movie \u201cThe Martian,\u201d one crop they\u2019re likely to grow is potatoes. Here on Earth, they\u2019re grown in all kinds of environments, from tropical to arctic, and at elevations from sea level to more than two miles high. Potatoes are highly productive, too -- you can grow a lot of them with little water and land. And they\u2019re highly nutritious.\nScientists in Peru recently grew potatoes in soil from the Pampas de la Joya Desert, which resembles Martian dirt. But only about 40 percent of the varieties they planted survived, and those that did make it were scrawny.\nFor now, look for Mars low in the southeast as night falls.

        "title": "Multicollinearity in Regression",
        "raw_content": "Multicollinearity and Regression Analysis\nIn regression, multicollinearity refers to the extent to which independent variables are correlated. Multicollinearity exists when:\nOne independent variable is correlated with another independent variable.\nOne independent variable is correlated with a linear combination of two or more independent variables.\nIn this lesson, we'll examine the impact of multicollinearity on regresssion analysis.\nThe Multicollinearity Problem\nAs part of regression analysis, researchers examine regression coefficients to assess the relative influence of independent variables. They look at the magnitude of coefficients, and they test the statistical significance of coefficients.\nIf the coefficient for a particular variable is significantly greater than zero, researchers judge that the variable contributes to the predictive ability of the regression equation. In this way, it is possible to distinguish variables that are more useful for prediction from those that are less useful.\nThis kind of analysis makes sense when multicollinearity is small. But it is problematic when multicollinearity is great. Here's why:\nWhen one independent variable is perfectly correlated with another independent variable (or with a combination of two or more other independent variables), a unique least-squares solution for regression coefficients does not exist.\nWhen one independent variable is highly correlated with another independent variable (or with a combination of two or more other independent variables), the marginal contribution of that independent variable is influenced by other independent variables. As a result:\nEstimates for regression coefficients can be unreliable.\nTests of significance for regression coefficients can be misleading.\nWith this in mind, the analysis of regression coefficients should be contingent on the extent of multicollinearity. This means that the analysis of regression coefficients should be preceded by an analysis of multicollinearity.\nIf the set of independent variables is characterized by a little bit of multicollinearity, the analysis of regression coefficients should be straightforward. If there is a lot of multicollinearity, the analysis will be hard to interpret and can be skipped.\nNote: Multicollinearity makes it hard to assess the relative importance of independent variables, but it does not affect the usefulness of the regression equation for prediction. Even when multicollinearity is great, the least-squares regression equation can be highly predictive. So, if you are only interested in prediction, multicollinearity is not a problem.\nHow to Measure Multicollinearity\nThere are two popular ways to measure multicollinearity: (1) compute a coefficient of multiple determination for each independent variable, or (2) compute a variance inflation factor for each independent variable.\nIn the previous lesson, we described how the coefficient of multiple determination (R2) measures the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that is explained by all of the independent variables.\nIf we ignore the dependent variable, we can compute a coefficient of multiple determination (R2k) for each of the k independent variables. We do this by regressing the kth independent variable on all of the other independent variables. That is, we treat Xk as the dependent variable and use the other independent variables to predict Xk.\nHow do we interpret R2k? If R2k equals zero, variable k is not correlated with any other independent variable; and multicollinearity is not a problem for variable k. As a rule of thumb, most analysts feel that multicollinearity is a potential problem when R2k is greater than 0.75; and, a serious problem when R2k is greater than 0.9.\nThe variance inflation factor is another way to express exactly the same information found in the coefficient of multiple correlation. A variance inflation factor is computed for each independent variable, using the following formula:\nVIFk = 1 / ( 1 - R2k )\nwhere VIFk is the variance inflation factor for variable k, and R2k is the coefficient of multiple determination for variable k.\nIn many statistical packages (e.g., SAS, SPSS, Minitab), the variance inflation factor is available as an optional regression output. In MiniTab, for example, the variance inflation factor can be displayed as part of the regression coefficient table.\nThe interpretation of the variance inflation factor mirrors the interpretation of the coefficient of multiple determination. If VIFk = 1, variable k is not correlated with any other independent variable. As a rule of thumb, multicollinearity is a potential problem when VIFk is greater than 4; and, a serious problem when it is greater than 10. The output above shows a VIF of 2.466, which indicates some multicollinearity but not enough to worry about.\nBottom line: If R2k is greater than 0.9 or VIFk is greater than 10, it is likely that regression coefficients are poorly estimated. And significance tests on those coefficients may be misleading.\nHow to Deal with Multicollinearity\nIf you only want to predict the value of a dependent variable, you may not have to worry about multicollinearity. Multiple regression can produce a regression equation that will work for you, even when independent variables are highly correlated.\nThe problem arises when you want to assess the relative importance of an independent variable with a high R2k (or, equivalently, a high VIFk). In this situation, try the following:\nRedesign the study to avoid multicollinearity. If you are working on a true experiment, the experimenter controls treatment levels. Choose treatment levels to minimize or eliminate correlations between independent variables.\nIncrease sample size. Other things being equal, a bigger sample means reduced sampling error. The increased precision may overcome potential problems from multicollinearity.\nRemove one or more of the highly-correlated independent variables. Then, define a new regression equation, based on the remaining variables. Because the removed variables were redundant, the new equation should be nearly as predictive as the old equation; and coefficients should be easier to interpret because multicolinearity is reduced.\nDefine a new variable equal to a linear combination of the highly-correlated variables. Then, define a new regression equation, using the new variable in place of the old highly-correlated variables.\nNote: Multicollinearity only affects variables that are highly correlated. If the variable you are interested in has a small R2j, statistical analysis of its regression coefficient will be reliable and informative. That analysis will be valid, even when other variables exhibit high multicollinearity.\nIn this section, two problems illustrate the role of multicollinearity in regression analysis. In Problem 1, we see what happens when multicollinearity is small; and in Problem 2, we see what happens when multicollinearity is big.\nIn the previous lesson, we used data from the table to develop a least-squares regression equation to predict test score. We also conducted statistical tests to assess the contribution of each independent variable (i.e., IQ and study hours) to the prediction.\nFor this problem,\nMeasure multicollinearity, based on (1) IQ and (2) the number of hours that the student studied.\nDiscuss the impact of multicollinearity for interpreting statistical tests on IQ and study hours.\nIn this lesson, we described two ways to measure multicollinearity:\nCompute a coefficient of multiple determination (R2k) for each independent variable.\nCompute a variance inflation factor (VIFk) for each independent variable.\nThe two approaches are equivalent; so, in practice, you only need to do one or the other, but not both. For this problem, though, we computed both. We used MiniTab to compute variance inflation factors, and we used Excel to compute coefficients of multiple determination. (In the previous lesson, we showed how to compute a coefficient of multiple determination with Excel.)\nHere are the results of our analysis.\nVariable k\nIQ 2.466 0.595\nStudy hours 2.466 0.595\nWe have rules of thumb to interpret VIFk and R2k. Multicollinearity makes it hard to interpret the statistical significance of the regression coefficient for variable k when VIFk is greater than 4 or when R2k is greater than 0.75. Since neither condition is evident in this problem, we can safely accept the results of statistical tests on regression coefficients.\nWe actually conducted those tests for this problem in the previous lesson. For convenience, key results are reproduced below:\nThe p-values for IQ and for Study Hours are statistically significant at the 0.05 level. We can trust these findings, because multicollinearity is within acceptable levels.\nIt is also interesting to look at the effectiveness of the regression equation to predict the dependent variable, Test Score. As part of the analysis in the previous lesson, we found that the coefficient of determination (R2) for the regression equation was 0.905. This means about 90% of the variance in Test Score was accounted for by IQ and Study Hours.\nProblem 2 is identical to Problem 1, except that we've added a new independent variable - grade point average (GPA). Values for each variable appear in the table below.\n1 100 110 40 3.9\n2 95 110 40 2.6\nAssume that you want predict Test Score, based on three independent variables - IQ, Study Hours, and GPA. As part of multiple regression analysis, you will assess the relative importance of each independent variable. Before you make that assessment, you need to understand multicollinearity among the independent variables.\nFor this problem, do the following:\nMeasure multicollinearity, based on IQ, Study Hours, and GPA.\nDiscuss how multicollinearity affects your ability to interpret statistical tests on IQ, Study Hours, and GPA.\nBy now, we know that there are two ways to measure multicollinearity:\nWe used MiniTab to compute variance inflation factors, and we used Excel to compute coefficients of multiple determination. Here are the results of our analysis.\nIQ 22.73 0.956\nStudy hours 2.52 0.603\nGPA 19.61 0.949\nWe have rules of thumb to interpret VIFk and R2k. Multicollinearity makes it hard to interpret the statistical significance of the regression coefficient for variable k when VIFk is greater than 4 or when R2k is greater than 0.75. Based on these guidelines, we would conclude that multicollinearity is a problem with IQ and GPA, but not with Study Hours.\nHere is the regression coefficients table for this problem. The table shows the following information each coefficient: its value, its standard error, a t-statistic, and the significance of the t-statistic. Based on what you know about multicollinearity, how would you interpret results reported in this table?\nThe p-value for Study Hours is statistically significant at the 0.05 level. We can trust this finding, because multicollinearity is within acceptable levels for the Study Hours variable. The p-values for IQ and GPA are not statistically significant. However, multicollinearity is high for these variables, so their tests of significance are suspect. Despite the non-significant test results, we cannot say with confidence that neither IQ nor GPA are poor predictors of test score.\nIn fact, based on the analysis in Problem 1, we know that IQ actually is a good predictor of test score. In this problem, the effect of IQ is confounded with the effect of GPA, because the two variables are so highly correlated. As a result, the p-value for IQ is not significant in this problem. Here's the moral: An insignificant p-value may be misleading when the variable being tested suffers from multicollinearity.\nAnd finally, we looked at the effectiveness of the regression equation to predict the dependent variable, Test Score. The coefficient of determination (R2) for the regression equation was 0.916. This is slightly greater than the coefficient of determination (0.905) found in Problem 1, when we only used IQ and Study Hours as independent variables. Even though predictors in this problem suffered from multicollinearity, the regression equation was still highly predictive. This illustrates the fact that multicollinearity does not affect the ability of the regression equation to predict a dependent variable; it only affects statistical tests on regression coefficients.",

        "raw_content": "Giving brands their voice\nJuly 7, 2014 | features\nMedia organisations around the world are reshaping their offerings, looking at new ways for advertisers to better engage with audiences across their news brands. One fast growing area is centred on content; the demand for quality content from audiences and the desire of brands to be the ones to supply it. In doing so, audiences have the opportunity to engage directly with the voices of brands and organisations with a story to tell.\nTwo of the most successful and widely adopted modes of this new style of communication are native advertising and content partnerships. The former enables companies to create engaging content to reinforce brand attributes, while content partnerships see brands and media organisations teamed to fund and deliver journalistically sound campaigns. Each approach engages the audience in slightly different ways, so it\u2019s important to determine the best fit at the outset \u2013 and that will largely be determined by a brand\u2019s voice.\nIt\u2019s no secret that the way brands engage with audiences online is changing. New research from Mandloys shows 70 percent of users want to learn about a company or product through content\u2014and brands are taking up that challenge. International media like The New York Times, Huffington Post and BuzzFeed have all developed content models to leverage their audiences and trusted position for brands with stories to tell. Adding content strategies to mainstream advertising provides an edge in a competitive marketplace, and it\u2019s moving brands to become content producers in their own right.\nBut it\u2019s not just as simple as \u2018build it and they will come\u2019. With an abundance of content from all directions competing for attention, there\u2019s a real need to cut through the noise. People engage with stories they find useful, informative or entertaining, so brand generated content needs to fit in at least one of those buckets. Ultimately, the return on investment in content will be only as good as the quality of the content created.\nThat being said, even the best content can get lost without attention to distribution. Some brands have an existing community or network of fans, but others don\u2019t. Either way, audience generation is just as important as the creation of the content itself. How are you going to get your content seen if you don\u2019t have access to an audience?\nPaul Lewis, APN NZ's director of editorial innovation\nThe Herald leads the way\nOver the past 12 months, the Herald has invested heavily in its content offering, both in terms of the architecture that brands can work within, and the people to lead the way.\nOne such investment has been the creation of a content partnerships editorship as a central point of contact for advertisers looking to enter the space. Initially filled by the former Herald on Sunday editor Bryce Johns until his departure for APN Australia, the position is now held by another Herald on Sunday alum, Paul Lewis. Coming to the role after stints as managing director at two Asia-Pacific PR consultancies, Lewis says content partnerships and native advertising open a \u201cwhole new set of doors\u201d for brand promotion or to fund journalistically sound campaigns.\n\"Content partnerships and native advertising allow brands to connect with audiences in an engaging and credible way. The NZ Herald has made significant investment in its content offerings and in the last 12 months has supported a number of successful campaigns\".\n\u201cThat\u2019s the key. This is not new product fluff or obviously self-serving press releases; it involves well-written pieces that genuinely capture reader interest,\u201d says Lewis. \u201cIt is then win-win. The client\u2019s interests are couched in a genuinely interesting environment and the news organisation, especially one like the NZ Herald, maintains its brand sanctity as an influential and credible source, trusted by readers and those who interact with it.\u201d\nIn the last 12 months the Herald has rolled out several content-based campaigns for major brands across its platforms.\nHeart of the City asked the Herald\u2019s editors to capture their love for Auckland, through editorial content and Instagram photos \u2013 inspiring readers to get involved and share their own ways to \u2018love their city\u2019. Readers captured favourite moments and places in the city, and shared them via Instagram with the Herald, which then re-shared the content across its channels showing off the best of Auckland through the eyes of the residents that love it (click here to see more of this campaign).\nAnother successful partnership, this time with Tourism Australia, tasked well-known Kiwis with exploring Australia by Passion, and bringing that to life for readers. Judy Bailey\u2019s passion for nature and wildlife led her off the beaten path in Western Australia, while Colin Mathura-Jeffree\u2019s passion for shopping kept him treading the well-worn tracks of the country\u2019s best fashion districts. Together with guides from Michael van de Elzen and Jon Bridges, readers were inspired to follow in their footsteps and discover Australia for themselves.\nTo round out the campaign, mobile, tablet, digital and special print editions all drove readers back to a custom-built Australia hub housed on the NZ Herald Online site. The hub featured content from the award-winning NZ Herald editorial team, Tourism Australia, user generated content, as well as articles and videos from each of the Australian advocates \u2013 a fantastic mix of content, all originating from different sources.\nFollowing the initial Passions campaign Tourism Research Australia reported, in the year to 30 September, for the first time ever there were over a million holidays to Australia from New Zealand.\nFor more information on native advertising, content partnerships or any content marketing area, please contact your APN account manager or Paul Lewis, director of editorial innovation at paul.lewis@apn.co.nz or 09 373 6400.",

        "raw_content": "Friday Afternoon Roundup - So God Made a Democrat\nSO GOD MADE A DEMOCRAT\nGod looked down on Washington D.C. and said \"I need someone who will steal morning, noon and night. Who will steal from the rich to give to the poor and steal from the poor to give to the rich and fool them all and keep all the loot.\"\nSo God made a Democrat.\nGod said, \"I need college man to come to a farm and tell the farmer that he can't feed his hogs with lettuce from his own farm or use the manure from his pigs to grow his lettuce. I need an inspector who will tell him how much he can sell his milk for and warn him that his son riding on the tractor constitutes child labor. I need someone to pay a farmer not to farm so that poor people can't afford bread.\"\n\"I want a union organizer who hires non-union picketers to keep workers from working, a politician who fights for the people by taking money from billionaires and a clergyman who worships whoever runs on the party line. I want a banker who fights for the poor and gives to the party and a party that pays the poor man eight times to vote for the banker's man.\"\n\"I need someone to retire at 55 with generous benefits from a government job. I need lawmakers who will pass laws without reading them. I need teachers who refuse to teach kids unless they're paid twice as much as any worker in their city. I need people to sit on commissions and make rules about lines of work that they've never been in.\"\n\"I need a Catholic who's for abortion. A Jew who's for Palestine. A Mormon who's against the Church. A Baptist who's for evolution. A Methodist who doesn't believe in god. And a Muslim who believes in destroying America.\"\nHe said, \"I need someone who starts all the wars and protests against all the wars. Who is first in line to sign up to fight against his country but comes out as a pacifist when it's time to defend it. I want war heroes who throw their medals over fences and then gather them up again when it's time to run for office. I want men who are for everything before they're against it\"\n\"I need a working class man who who has never worked a day in his life, but always talks about caring for those who do. I need a man who talks all the time about helping women, blacks, lesbians, Eskimos and Martians get ahead and then drops them like a dirty rag when he has what he wants. A man who gets up at 11:30 in the afternoon to help the less fortunate by passing laws that will make them even less fortunate. A man who takes nine tenths of what's meant for the poor and lets them have the leftovers.\"\n\"I need a man who believes in himself too much to take responsibility for anything he did. I need a man who is tolerantly intolerant, who is outraged all day by everything in the world except his own outrageous behavior. I need a man who is for freedom of speech except when he's offended, for freedom of religion except when he disagrees with it and for the right to bear arms but only for those weapons that existed in 1791.\"\nGod said, \"I need a party of jackasses that will always break through the fence and spoil everything that the farmer grows. I need bad men to test good men and liars, cheats and thieves with clipboards to teach neighbors to stick together against them. I need a man with no more conscience than a rattlesnake leading a band of fools with less sense than sheep. And I need him to keep the farmers and ranchers, the workers and doers on their toes so they always remember that evil never rests and keeping it down can sometimes be the hardest work of all.\"\nWHO IS THE REAL LUNATIC?\nThis is the story of Michael A. Stokes, a bank robber serving a 73 year sentence, who decided to rename himself Ophelia Azriel De\u2019lonta and pretend to be a woman.\nBut in a Democratic run justice system, it\u2019s not enough for the inmate to be crazy, the court has to be just as crazy as he is.\nSo this is also the story of the Virginia Department of Corrections which not only allowed Michael Stokes to dress up as a woman, but also paid for his psychological counseling and hormone therapy.\nBut this is also the story of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, consists of Clinton and Obama appointees, who ruled that the failure to castrate Stokes violates the Eight Amendment\u2019s Cruel and Unusual Punishment provision thereby making it Unconstitutional.\nWho is the real lunatic in this story?\nFederal Court Rules that Failure to Castrate Bank Robber is Cruel and Unusual Punishment\nSPEAKING OF DEMOCRATS\nHillary Clinton presided over the first murder of an American ambassador in thirty years. It was the closest thing to a notable moment in her time as Secretary of State, which concluded, in true Clinton style, with a cover-up, Senate hearings and more finger-wagging.\nAnd yet, despite all that, the media threw her a farewell party in preparation for the 2016 election. Four Americans died in Benghazi and in four years, Hillary Rodham Clinton expects to take the White House.\nThere is a certain symmetry to that. A year of political exile for every man she left unguarded and unsupported while lavishing millions on mosque renovations, embassy paintings and assorted trinkets. A year for every man whose blood was spilled on the warm streets of Benghazi. Four dead men and four years in which to prepare to do the same thing all over again as President of the United States.\nIt\u2019s a big job and HRC finally has the experience for it.\nFour more years. See the rest in Things Only a Democrat Could Get Away With\nSPEAKING OF REPUBLICANS\nWhile the Republican Party leadership decided that the path to victory lies through creating 11 million new Democratic voters, the Conservative blogsphere decided to court that vital Al-Qaeda demographic by screaming that Obama was murdering American 17-year-olds without due process.\nI clicked over to the leftist blogsphere half-hoping that it was Backward Day and that they had come out against gun control, abortion and deficit spending. But no such luck. They're evil, not stupid.\nSure the Republican Party could concentrate on its base. But that's in-the-box thinking. Out of the box and out of the mind thinking says that it should expand and find a new base. Like illegal aliens and Al Qaeda terrorists.\nThere's nothing like the sight of conservative blogs quoting Glenn Greenwald and Noami Wolf to denounce a drone strikes policy that began under the Bush Administration... and then complaining that the left doesn't care about the legality of drone strikes, when it's the left that has been yammering about this issue since those same people were hoping that Iraq would become the 51st State.\nIf those blogs were trying to make the Republican leadership's decision to embrace Amnesty seem sane by comparison. Mission accomplished.\nDespite claims on a dozen blogs that Anwar Al-Awlaki was an innocent American teenager assassinated by a kill order, he was blown to his 72 Virgins because he was standing too close to an Al Qaeda leader. There was no due process involved because if you stand next to an Al Qaeda leader on a battlefield, you will die.\nDue process under the American justice system applies to people in the United States, regardless of citizenship, who are arrested and charged with a crime in the United States.\nEnemy combatants, whether they are members of an army or a terrorist group, can be killed by the United States military without regard to Due Process. There is no Due Process on the battlefield.\nDue Process did not apply when the United States assassinated Admiral Yamamoto, the architect of Pearl Harbor. It would have applied had he been arrested in Hawaii, regardless of whether he was an American citizen or not. It did not apply when he was targeted as a member of an enemy force. It would not have applied even if he had picked up citizenship while living in the United States.\nDue Process applies to the legal system. It does not apply to the military targeting enemy personnel. If it had, the United States would have had to check with a lawyer any time it faced a German unit with American traitors in its ranks, bring an indictment and hold a trial. The German Army could have taken back Paris by using them as human shields.\nThe entire argument is discredited left-wing propaganda from the Bush Administration that some people on the right have decided to scrape off the sidewalk and then put up on their blogs. It depends on the same refusal to distinguish between war and law enforcement that was the linchpin of the left's entire argument.\nIf adopting the pro-amnesty and pro-terrorist positions of the Democratic Party is supposed to be the comeback strategy of the Republican Party, then I have to ask, what exactly are we fighting for?\nA Republican Party that has the spending, immigration, terrorism and social policies of the Democrats?\nWouldn't it just be easier to join the Democratic Party?\nWhen waging war, the \u201cdue process\u201d that allows the United States to unleash its military on its enemies is not an individualized process; it is the Act of Congress commencing hostilities (with the understanding, of course, that the inherent right of self-defense applies even before Congress can act). Following this congressional action, the conduct of hostilities \u2014 including the identification and selection of targets \u2014 is a military responsibility under the civilian supervision of the president and the secretary of defense. When waging war, the military can kill our enemies face-to-face in battle, while they sleep in their barracks or encampments, and even when they run away in fear. The deadly force stops when our enemies are hors de combat \u2014 for example, incapacitated by wounds or evidencing a clear intent to surrender. Attacking and killing the enemy isn\u2019t assassination; it\u2019s combat.\nThe intelligence and targeting challenge presented by our enemy\u2019s systematic violation of the laws of war \u2014 by hiding amongst civilians, refusing to wear uniforms, etc. \u2014 is exactly the same regardless of whether the target is an American or Pakistani or Iraqi. In prior wars, American forces have reacted to targeting challenges not with greater restraint, but with greater firepower \u2014 for example, one of the reasons for the firebombing of Japanese cities was the decision by Japanese leaders to disperse key manufacturing facilities across urban areas, rendering European-style daylight bombing raids essentially fruitless. We were faced with the terrible choice between area bombing and leaving much of the enemy\u2019s war machine essentially unmolested \u2014 in the midst of an existential struggle for our existence. We chose area bombing.\nIn the current war, we go to great lengths to avoid targeting the wrong individual (when I was in Iraq, our targeting decisions were typically based on multiple, overlapping pieces of intelligence). Killing the enemy while sparing civilians is sound counterinsurgency, and it is sound morally. But when civilians do die, the responsibility for their deaths lies with the enemy that unlawfully used them as human shields.\nIf all this sounds harsh, or \u201cchilling,\u201d or scary, that\u2019s because it is. War is hell. And there is no constitutional doctrine that exempts American citizens from that hell when they choose to wage war against their own country.\nThat's David French at the National Review, explaining that Yes, the Military Can and Should Target American Members of Al-Qaeda\nLawrence Auster emphasizes that the US citizenship of an enemy combatant has no relevance at all on the battlefield.\nObama\u2019s critics have no problem with Obama killing non-U.S. citizens who are waging terrorist war against America. But in reality the U.S. has no more a right to kill non-U.S. citizens than U.S. citizens, just as the U.S. has no more a right to arrest and imprison non-U.S. citizens than U.S. citizens. Non-U.S. citizens who are waging war against the United States and organizing terrorist attacks against the United States from a foreign country may be killed, and U.S. citizens who are waging war against the United States and organizing terrorist attacks against the United States from a foreign country may be killed...\nDrone-based killings of jihadists have been going on steadily since the start of the Obama administration\u2014more than under Bush. Did you ever complain about these killings before? No. The killing of Awlaki (plus the unplanned but welcome killing of his jihadist pal and fellow U.S. citizen Samir Kahn) is simply a part of that campaign which presumably you have welcomed and supported. So, again, what relevance does Awlaki\u2019s U.S. citizenship have to this issue? None. He was an enemy waging war on us and seeking to mass murder us. Our government has not suddenly started \u201ckilling U.S. citizens,\u201d which is the way you are painting it; rather the government is continuing doing what it has been doing all along, which is killing jihadists...\nHow does the rule of law require that we deal with a Yemen-based terrorist who is waging war on us and IS a U.S. citizen, any differently than we deal with a Yemen-based terrorist who is waging war on us and is NOT a U.S. citizen?\nThere is no actual legal difference. From an emotional standpoint, we care about Americans more, but that hardly applies to Jihadists with American citizenship.\nThe enemy soldier or terrorist has the same legal status regardless of his passport. Once we are at war with him, we may kill him as we choose on the battlefield. Only if he is captured, do additional legal issues arise.\nMUSLIM HOSPITALITY IS A BEAUTIFUL THING\nBefore becoming Prime Minister, David Cameron wrote, \u201cIf we want to remind ourselves of British values \u2013 hospitality, tolerance and generosity to name just three \u2013 there are plenty of British Muslims ready to show us what those things really mean.\u201d\nAnd the Muslim Patrol is busy reminding everyone of the traditional Muslim values of hospitality and tolerance in their latest video.\nThere are the usual cheerful messages of tolerance and hospitality like \u201cIslam is here in London\u2026 this is not a Christian country\u2026 Christianity can go to hell\u2026Allah Akbar\u201d\nFollowed by a warning to Prime Minister David Cameron, \u201canyone who tries to stop us, we will take their alcohol, we will tell the naked women to cover up and implement Islam upon your own necks, David Cameron.\u201d\n\u201cIt is mainstream Britain which needs to integrate more with the British Asian way of life, not the other way around,\u201d Cameron said.\nAnd that\u2019s all the Muslim Patrol is doing. It\u2019s integrating mainstream Britain with the Muslim way of life.\nUK Muslim Patrol: \u201cThis is Not a Christian Country\u2026 We Will Implement Islam Upon Your Necks\u201d\nHOW ABOUT WE KILL 1,380 PEOPLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT?\nKlick and Wright estimate that the San Francisco ban results in a 46 percent increase in deaths from foodborne illnesses, or 5.5 more of them each year.\nThere\u2019s an estimated 61 percent rise in ER visits due to E Coli and the estimated cost of all this is over 100 million dollars.\nSo now let\u2019s consider what a national plastic bag ban would look like based on the national foodborne illness rates.\nThe CDC estimates that each year roughly 1 in 6 Americans (or 48 million people) gets sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die of foodborne diseases.\nThat number will go up to at least 64 million or 1 in 5 Americans. Assuming a 46 percent increase in the national foodborne illness death toll\u2026 we end up with 1,380 more people dying under a ban.\nIt's not Evil. It's Environmentalism. But sometimes it can be hard to tell the difference.\nMaking a map of targets for a killer to use is a bad thing, except when the organization is leftist and the killer is leftist.\nAs one of the targets on the Southern Poverty Law Center's map, I am not exactly a fan of this.\nThe Family Research Council shooter, who pleaded guilty today to a terrorism charge, picked his target off a \u201chate map\u201d on the website of the ultra-liberal Southern Poverty Law Center which is upset with the conservative group\u2019s opposition to gay rights.\nFloyd Lee Corkins II pleaded guilty to three charges including a charge of committing an act of terrorism related to the August 15, 2012 injuring of FRC\u2019s guard. He told the FBI that he wanted to kill anti-gay targets and went to the law center\u2019s website for ideas.\nThe SPLC and Corkins can always quote Auden. \"To-day the deliberate increase in the chances of death, The consious acceptance of guilt in the necessary murder;\"\nYou disrespect the office of the POTUS/Presidency and Commander in Chief. You call him Kenyan, mongroid, halfrican, muslim, and FBHO when in essence you are to address him as simply, President\u2026 You question his birth certificate, his educational and professional accomplishments, and his judeo-christian beliefs\u2026 You call his wife a Wookie. Off the record, I love your new bangs, Mrs. Obama.\nI shed a tear the night you were initially elected President in 2008. I never thought that day would occur. A black man elected president in the U.S. in my lifetime. I cracked a smiled when you were re-elected in 2012 because I really didn\u2019t think you were going to pull that one off.\nHillary Clinton. You\u2019ll make one hell of a president in 2016. Much like your husband, Bill, you will be one of the greatest.\nThat's a compelling message from copkiller Chris Dorner, who is a typical enough liberal, and whose violent spree may be covered by the news, but whose politics won't be.\nThe dirty little secret of the left is that they are the ones who specialize in violent terror. And their media refuses to talk about it.\nLiberals. They are swollen with the milk of human kindness. They care about people, right before they shoot them in the head.\nEVOLUTION, IT'S NOT JUST FOR FISH\nThe Illegal Alien Amnesty (it\u2019s not amnesty, you pay a fine!) was sold as a comprehensive immigration reform plan. Then we found out that the enforcement part of the plan is going to be watered down further and it\u2019s basically another illegal alien amnesty, just like the one in 1986 and the attempt to repeat that folly in 2006.\nMarco Rubio was opposed to both amnesties. In a Senate debate with Charlie Crist, Rubio criticized the Florida governor for backing the 2007 McCain-Kennedy immigration bill.\nBut the McCain-Kennedy immigration plan is the same as the 2013 Gang of 8 + Obama Comprehensive Immigration Reform. That message comes from none other than John McCain.\nSo Rubio is now selling what he opposed four years ago and his answer as to whether there\u2019s going to be another amnesty.\n\"At the end of the day, I think your question is are we going to enforce our laws and deport people in the future when we have been unwilling to do it now, and I think the answer has to be yes or we\u2019re going to wind up back here again in less than 10 years.\"\nRubio Now Backing Away From \u201cEnforcement First\u201d on Illegal Alien Amnesty\nMeanwhile a CIS poll shows that a majority of likely voters oppose amnesty and that more voters feel strongly against it than for it.\nThe Center for Immigration Studies has its own poll out which suggests that not only do the majority of voters not support amnesty, but the passion is stronger on the anti-amnesty side than on the pro-amnesty side.\nNow this is important because after an extended media barrage, the center can shift left on a topic, whether it\u2019s gay marriage, abortion or illegal immigration, but what matters is not that X amount of voters now say that gay illegal aliens should be able to marry their abortions, but how much they care about it.\nThe media, including sections of the conservative media, has barraged the American public with positive coverage of amnesty. That tends to lead the weak-minded to shift toward amnesty. But the question is how committed are they to it. That questions matters because the weak-minded can be shifted in the other direction once the counter-argument begins.\nFOOD FASCISM CAN HAPPEN HERE\nThe proposed regulation would require store owners to label prepared, unpackaged foods found in salad bars and food bars, soups and bakery items. \u201cIf you get it wrong, it\u2019s a federal crime, and you could face jail time and thousands of dollars worth of fines.\u201d\nThe next step will be extend that to bake sales and to people who bring egg salad to church picnics. If your apple pie for the bake sale doesn\u2019t have the proper nutritional information, the food gestapo will slide down the pole, shimmy through the extra narrow door, adjust the little plastic statue of Michelle Obama on their dashboard, turn on the siren that plays a mix of exercise music at ear-splitting volume and be on the way to you within 5 to 6 years.\nDeli Owners May Face Jail Time If They Miscount Salad Calories\nIT'S A MIDDLE PATH, IT'S NOT RASH OR RECKLESS, IT'S A MIDDLE PATH, REALLY MIDDLE\nSo Rand Paul delivered his big Heritage foreign policy speech which consisted of\n1. Conceding that Islamic terrorism exists and it's a large minority, not a tiny minority, and that it exists even apart from American foreign policy.\nThe first half of that would be a big admission from any American Senator and the second half is important from the Camp of Paul, which insists that terrorism is blowback. It's probably the most significant thing he has said on foreign policy so far.\n2. Dismissing the threat of an Iranian nuke\n3. Urging that we do less and take some sort of middle path that isn't rash or reckless\n4. Attacking military spending\n5. Promoting Reagan as a moderate for being willing to sit down with the USSR.\n6. Slobbering all over George F. Kennan and proposing a containment of \"Radical Islam\" in some general sense.\n7. Claiming falsely that the United States funded Bin Laden\n8. Not actually laying out much in the way of a foreign policy.\n\"I recognize that foreign policy is complicated. It is inherently less black and white to most people than domestic policy. I think there is room for a foreign policy that strikes a balance,\" Paul said.\nThis is ironically almost exactly Kerry's reply to Paul's question about providing F16's to the Muslim Brotherhood.\n\"Not everything, and this is always the complication in dealings with the international sector, not everything lends itself to a simple clarity, black white, this that, every time,\u201d Kerry replied to Paul.\nThat's the trouble with foreign policy nuance.\nIt's easy to sound very enlightened by repeating truisms like \"it's not all black and white\" truisms, but that doesn't define the point at which things do become black and white. And that's the point that truly matters.\nFrom 1968 to 1970, Christopher John Matthews heroically served his nation as a trade development adviser in the Peace Corps where he developed trade or traded advisers or developed trading advice. Or something. There he gained the name Phakama Dube, which is Swazi for Jump Up Zebra\nThat heroic escapade, which is exactly like being shot down and tortured in Vietnam, eminently qualifies the second whitest and fattest journalist on MSNBC (Ed Schultz still wins this one) to mock McCain as a crazy veteran.\nPeace Corps Vet Chris Matthews Mocks John McCain\u2019s Vietnam Service\nBEWARE OF DANGEROUS YOUNG SOCIALIST MEN\nThe Socialist Workers Party has devoted an enormous effort to the Curtis case in the three years since his arrest. It has gathered endorsements from more than 8,000 political activists and organizations in and around the world and raised, by its own estimate, $150,000 in living room and union hall fundraisers, and by working the crowds at peace and prochoice rallies across the country.\nPast and present Curtis endorsers include Ed Asner, Congressmen John Conyers and Ronald Dellums, Angela Davis, the Rev. Daniel Berrigan, Detroit Bishop Thomas Gumbleton, several chapters of NOW, the national chair of Sinn Fein, and members of Parliament and the African National Congress.\nThe case against Mark Curtis rests on the accounts of two key witnesses, 15 year-old Demetria Harris and her 11 year-old brother Jason.\nDemetria struggled, until \u201cMark\u201d began punching her in the face and head. Jason, hearing the struggle, came to investigate. Opening the door a moment he saw \u201cMark\u201d on top of Demetria. Jason went back into the house, armed himself with a kitchen knife, took the phone as far from the porch as he could, and dialed 911.\n\u201cThis man is raping my sister,\u201d he told police dispatcher Kim Manning. Manning logged the call into her computer at 8:51 PM. She then radioed officers Joseph Gonzales and Richard Glade, parked nearby. The officers arrived two minutes later, pulled up silently. They walked to the front door and knocked.\n\u201cMark\u201d put his hands around Demetria\u2019s throat, \u201cand started choking me, and told me not to say anything.\u201d Gonzales and Glade pushed through the door, and \u201cMark,\u201d his pants down around his legs, took off into the back of the house. Demetria, nude from the waist down and bleeding from the face, told Gonzales, \u201cHe just raped me.\u201d\nThe assailant was cornered in a back bedroom, where, his pants still down around his legs, Mark Stanton Curtis was handcuffed and read his rights.\nCurtis was joined at the celebration by several other speakers. \u201cTonight, we celebrate Mark\u2019s release because now he can join in the struggle along with a new generation of dangerous young men and women,\u201d said Tom Alter, a leader of the Young Socialists in Chicago and member of the YS national steering committee.\nSocialist Workers Party Used \u201cSocialist Sharia Court\u201d to Cover Up Rape\nTHE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD'S FACEBOOK JIHAD\nTwenty-three-year-old Mohamed Hussein Al-Qarni, administrator of the \u201cBrotherhood Are Liars\u201d Facebook page, will not be the last of these youth to die.

It\u2019s used to defend some ideas, but not others. Drop a Koran in a toilet in a New York City academic institution and you\u2019ll be arrested and charged with a hate crime.

I don\u2019t think people have noticed that, but it\u2019s got all the sort of terms that religions use \u2026 The greens use guilt. That just shows how religious greens are. You can\u2019t win people round by saying they are guilty for putting (carbon dioxide) in the air.\u201d\nAnd he has even questioned Global Warming, \u201cThe problem is we don\u2019t know what the climate is doing. We thought we knew 20 years ago. That led to some alarmist books \u2013 mine included \u2013 because it looked clear-cut, but it hasn\u2019t happened. The climate is doing its usual tricks.

We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now.\u201d\nFather of Green Movement Battles Green Energy\nTHE FUTURE OF THE WEST IS A PANIC ROOM\nFirst, Westergaard\u2019s panic room. It is a bathroom off the front hall of a modest, modern-style home in the small Danish city of Aarhus. The tiny room is equipped with a buzzer that rings through to the local police station, and it has a steel door. While the Somali was breaking through the front door of his home, Westergaard, then 74, who walks with a cane, made his way into the secure room, hoping the police would reach him in time. As he listened to each strike of the ax on his door, the assailant screamed, \u201cBlood! Revenge!\u201d\nBlood and revenge for what? Four years earlier, Westergaard had drawn a cartoon of Muhammad. It was one of 12 such cartoons commissioned by his newspaper, Jyllands-Posten, to demonstrate that Denmark\u2019s media do not follow Islamic laws against depicting Muhammad. You haven\u2019t seen Westergaard\u2019s cartoon in American media? That\u2019s because American media do follow this Islamic prohibition \u2013 only they call it being \u201csensitive\u201d or \u201cinclusive\u201d or something. (Google \u201cWestergaard\u201d and \u201ccartoon\u201d to see if the image makes you want to pick up an ax.)\nNo matter what our media chiefs say, however, there is nothing \u201csensitive\u201d or \u201cinclusive\u201d about capitulating to what is, in reality, fear of Islamic violence, thus allowing an elderly Danish artist to face this jihad alone.\n...from Diana West's column, Old Vikings of the Counterjihad\nWE ARE ALL SWEDES NOW\nWomen are now being signed as male fashion models.\nThe past year saw a first in the fashion industry \u2013 women signed contracts to model as men for Ford Models and Saint Laurent, according to this report, story below.

Enter Martial Arts - from 5 years old forward, he trained in the art, discipline, and techniques of a martial artist. As a tiny guy with glasses, I feared the worst for him in Kindergarten but through an effervescent personality, watchful teachers and the training he was receiving he avoided it. Moving forward, he began to recognize bully in others and started stepping in to defend the under dog. Martial arts gave him the confidence he needed.\nThe first instance took place on the 2nd grade play ground, between a bully and an autistic kid. My son (who I will call Caleb), told the bully to stop. The bully did not, Caleb ushered him under a sliding board (outside of the watchful eyes of the teachers) and delivered a big punch to the stomach. Doubled over in pain, the bully was informed that he'd gotten off lightly, this time... I gushed with Motherly joy and pride at the story to which my 2nd Grader said, \"Yeah, but now the Autistic kid hugs me every time he sees me.\"\nThus, began the dynamic of Caleb the bully destroyer. This pattern and behavior continued through Elementary School but due to strict supervision the instances where Caleb was called to step in were limited to 3-4 times a year. Middle School, from a bullying perspective is a remake of \"The Lord of the Flies\".\nWhen asked this week why he was coming home with so many stories of fights, he exclaimed, \"Mom, they are like zombies! They just keep coming! I deal with one and next week there is another to take his place.\" He was talking about The Challenger type. Digging further, he revealed that he regularly steps in against Biff the Bully. So he deals with both kinds on a daily basis.\nI said, \"So describe the Challenger, what is this kid like?\" Without missing a beat he said, \"Oh, those are the Black kids from the Hood.\" I scoffed, \"Caleb, you are in one of the nicest public schools in the city, there are no kids from the hood that go to your school! When I went to school, there WERE kids from the Hood but you? No way.\"\nHe shrugged, eleven year old's are not into nuance. \"Well, they walk down the hall and act like they are from the hood, so it's most of these guys that are try to fight me.\" I shake my head in bewilderment, \"So what about the other type?\" I ask. \"Oh, those are the big white guys, lots of times football players.\"\n...from Abigail and Dolley - Middle School Madness\nIt is a great line, but listen Buddy, GOD did NOT make the Democrats... NO it was the other fellow who made Democrats...\nMan's sinful nature is FULLY evident in the Democratic Party Platform, and in all Progressive and/or Democrat politicians (and far too many Republicans too).\nSorry I've been absent recently, been on travel and overloading working to support the Occupy & Politician class...\nSo God made a democrat - masterful!\nGod looked down at America and said \" I need someone who is willing to put his principals in his back pocket, preferably into the direction of his wallet, and who will be willing to work hard to fool the people into believing that his brand of politicks is somehow different than the opposition.\nSo God made Republicans\nAs much as I agree with all of what you say, I think it is imperative that there be an extended significant debate about killing US citizens.\nIf a US citizen is, as you mention, fighting for a foreign army against the US, by all means,\nkill that person as you would any enemy combatant.\nBut the law operates on precedent. And I don't want Obama to have blanket authority to kill US citizens without trial. I don't trust him or any other politician in Washington, Democratic or Republican, to handle such authority without abusing it.\nSuppose the FBI or CIA discovers a plot in this country to commit terrorist acts on behalf of Islam? Should the government be able to simply kill everyone involved without trial? No, of course not.\nBut if history tells us anything, it is that when you grant politicians any kind of authority, their natural inclination is to expand, and if that doesn't work, to abuse that authority.\nThe extreme Left is already issuing death threats to anyone who disagrees with them. This whole debate, is, in my view, healthy in that it will, hopefully, clearly define a razor sharp limit on the government's authority to kill US citizens.\nYes, we will have to put up with the anti-war, antifreedom, anti-common sense, whacko Left dumping nonsense into the discussion. But that's true of any debate about anything of any importance nowdays, because the Left in this country views government as their express ticket to a Socialist 'paradise', a la Carto or Chavez.\nWe who disagree with them must be scrupulous in\nestablishing what we believe and why we believe it. I think the current debate helps to do that.\nDoug, the precedent is that presidents have the authority to kill battlefield combatants regardless of us citizenship\nand they do not have the authority to assassinate us citizens in the united states\nthat is the precedent\nthere is nothing new here and nothing has changed\nThis explains what's goin on ...\nhttps://dl.dropbox.com/u/7950634/It%27s%20a%20free%20country.pdf\nMy oh my, the little boys are angry at the world and Democrats.

One word: HOMESCHOOLING. Or if that isn't possible, find a dozen like-minded families, and as a group, hire your own teacher.\n\"Doug, the precedent is that presidents have the authority to kill battlefield combatants regardless of us citizenship\"\nThe fundamental problem is, when the battlefield is deemed to be the entire planet, and anyone alive is potentially a \"battlefield combatant\", who gets to define which are \"battlefield combatants\", and which are not? I trust absolutely no one in our current government to make this decision with any kind of accuracy or fair-mindedness. Just for the record, I didn't trust anyone in the last government either.\nOn a slightly different note, it is interesting how concerned we are about civilian casualties from drone strikes that may number in the hundreds or thousands, but we seem to have forgotten about the millions of civilians that died in the firebombings of Tokyo or Dresden. Or the millions that died at the hands of Stalin in, say, the Ukraine in the 1930s. Or the millions that died at the hands of the Turks in 1915. Etc. Etc.

        "raw_content": "How to Turn Your Interests into a Business\nBlogging, Make Money, Tips & Tricks\nWorking at home, on your own schedule is something most people dream of. Finding something that your passionate about can be an interesting process. So many people tend to have hobbies and activities that they like outside of their regular job, but how does one go about turning those interests into a business?\nWith a little bit of effort and thinking outside the box, there are ways that you can spend the rest of your working career doing something that you actually enjoy. It\u2019s a great feeling to think that there\u2019s a possibility that you can actually love your job and be excited to \u201cwork\u201d each and every day.\nFine tune your passion. The key to turning your interests into a business in being able to narrow it down to just one interest. Crafting isn\u2019t really a business \u2013 custom tutus is. Zone in on a passion that you love to do, and then figure out how you can make it be the one that\u2019s going to really take off as a business idea. Too many moving parts can create chaos, so narrow it down to make it stand out and be successful.\nResearch Options. There are many venues where you can start a business for very little money. Blogging is a great way to earn extra income and costs very little to start \u2013 just your time and effort so if you love to write it could be a good option. You can sell products you make on Amazon, eBay or Etsy. Sell your services on Fiverr or . Offer services around town like dog walking, or flower arranging. The options are endless. Start searching what you love to do and see what others are doing. I wouldn\u2019t copy something someone is doing in your city but look in other locations. Your city may need something new!\nCreate a business plan. All great businesses start out with an idea and a plan. Starting a business on a whim sounds like a fun idea, but you need to be certain that you have a plan for the long haul. Once you have decided on a sales plan, write out what you foresee your business being like in 1 year, 5 years and even 10 years down the road. Write out the products or services that you are wanting to provide, then write out the price points as well. The more preparation that you can do on the back end before you launch, the more smoothly your business will run.\nStart small to really understand your customer base. It may be tempting to start big and put it all out there, but the reality is that you need to start small to test the waters. When starting a business, it\u2019s important to take the time and make certain that all the small details and problems that may arise are easily addressed and quick to be taken care of. If you start big right out of the gate with your business, you take the risk of not having enough manpower or time to be able to successfully keep it afloat. By starting small, you can always increase as you need but it allows you the choice and opportunity to do so. Besides the smaller you start, the less money you will need to put in.\nBe open to tweaking as you go along. Having a business plan is one of the first steps to take in turning your interests into a business, but once that is done and over you have to also be open and willing to tweak as you go along. Starting your own business will show you so many different ways to do things and you need to be able to be open-minded to switch gears if you have to. Understand that there isn\u2019t just one right way to do something. The sooner that you can understand that and accept it, the better off you\u2019ll be when it comes to making decisions that can positively impact your business.\nIf you have an interest that you also feel is a great business idea, don\u2019t delay. The longer that you wait before starting your business venture, the more time that you are giving someone else to come in and start it before you. Believe in yourself, your abilities, and your business idea and take the proper steps above to make your dream become a reality. The beginning may be a bit rocky, but it\u2019s the end game that you are striving for. Stay positive, persistent, and passionate and you\u2019ll have nothing but great experiences in running your own business.\n\u2190 Cooking Utensils Set \u2013 23 Pieces \u2013 Nylon Kitchen Utensils Only $7\n8 Pack of Seventh Generation Hand Wash Soap Only $15 \u2192",

Mayors, transportation companies and urban planners are increasingly taking notice. The number of cities which recognize the benefits of self-driving cars and buses increases rapidly. Below is a list of some cities around the world which have launched or are working to launch activities focused on self-driving cars and buses: \u2026 for more, go to http://www.driverless-future.com/?cat=29\nThese two news headlines captured Pulse Of Bukit Lanjan\u2019s attention:\n\u00d8 Singapore to deploy driverless buses from 2022; and\n\u00d8 UK to have driverless cars by 2021: govt\n\u201cJust how long more does the Malaysian government wants to sleep on transport technology?\u201d Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff asked.\nHe said both Singapore and the UK had set deadlines to launch electric vehicles (EVs) and driverless vehicles in five and four years respectively.\nAnd, Syed Razak said, \u201cwe have not even approved the use of e-bikes and EVs, let alone lay the infrastructure to charge EVs.\nHe said it was perplexing that the federal government, namely the Transport Ministry, had remained mum on the global transport evolution and revolution in technology.\n\u201cThe federal government continues to pretend as if nothing is happening globally. What a shame and a disservice to the rakyat dan negara (people and country),\u201d he added.\nAfter Driverless Cars, Singapore To Test Self-Driving Buses\nAll aboard! NTU and the Land Transport Authority of Singapore are collaborating on transport research projects into autonomous vehicles and rail network enhancement.\nAsianScientist (Oct. 27, 2016) \u2013 The Land Transport Authority (LTA) of Singapore has signed agreements with the Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) to collaborate on a series of transport research projects into autonomous vehicles and rail network enhancement. LTA and NTU intend to work towards a future where city landscapes are not dominated by roads, parking lots and private cars, but where new forms of shared mobility complementing public transport systems will enable commuters to get around comfortably and conveniently. Under the agreements, the partners will conduct joint research to enhance existing rail networks through real-time condition monitoring and also conduct trials for a fully-autonomous 12-meter bus, the first of its kind in Singapore.

They became an art form, and by the 18th century no other European country was producing as many tiles for such a variety of purposes and in so many different designs. Today, they still remain a very important part of the country\u2019s architecture.\n\u201cBetween the 16th and 18th centuries, azulejos were used to make antependia (altar pieces) in churches, with yellow motifs on the border tiles imitating the golden fringe on oriental fabrics, examples of which can be found at the Santa Maria Hospital in Lisbon and Bu\u00e7aco Palace in central Portugal. Churches, monasteries, palaces and even houses began to be covered inside and out, often with exuberant Baroque designs. Also with large exports to Brazil, the late 17th and early 18th century can be considered the golden age of the portuguese azulejo. Tile painters regained their status as bonafide artists who began signing their works, bringing on the emergence of the so-called Ciclo dos Mestres (Cycle of the Masters). It was also around this time that a new type of azulejo composition emerged and became very much in vogue: the aves e ramagens (birds and branches), influenced by the representations on printed textiles imported from India: animals, birds, flowers and hindu symbols. There was also a shift towards more delicate pastoral themes in Rococo style, an example of which is the Corredor das Mangas at Queluz National Palace, while they later gained a more functional role in the reconstruction of Lisbon following the Great Earthquake of 1755.\u201d www.tasteportugal.com\n18th century Portuguese Tiles Angel glasses case\n18th century Portuguese Tiles Angel cloth\n18th century Portuguese Tiles Angel eco shopper\n18th Century Portuguese Tiles Angel book cover\n18th century Portuguese Tiles Angel mini umbrella\n18th century Portuguese Tiles Angel fan",

        "raw_content": "The Flame Bearer : 10 by Bernard Cornwell\nThe brand new novel in Bernard Cornwell's number one bestselling series on the making of England and the fate of his great hero, Uhtred of Bebbanburg. BBC2's major TV show THE LAST KINGDOM is based on the first two books in the series. From the day it was stolen from me I had dreamed of recapturing Bebbanburg.\nThe great fort was built on a rock that was almost an island, it was massive, it could only be approached on land by a single narrow track - and it was mine. Britain is in a state of uneasy peace. Northumbria's Viking ruler, Sigtryggr, and Mercia's Saxon Queen Aethelflaed have agreed a truce.\nAnd so England's greatest warrior, Uhtred of Bebbanburg, at last has the chance to take back the home his traitorous uncle stole from him so many years ago - and which his scheming cousin still occupies. But fate is inexorable and the enemies Uhtred has made and the oaths he has sworn combine to distract him from his dream of recapturing Bebbanburg. New enemies enter into the fight for England's kingdoms: the redoubtable Constantin of Scotland seizes an opportunity for conquest and leads his armies south.\nBritain's precarious peace threatens to turn into a war of annihilation. But Uhtred is determined that nothing, neither the new enemies nor the old foes who combine against him, will keep him from his birthright. He is the Lord of Bebbanburg, but he will need all the skills he has learned in a lifetime of war to make his dream come true.\nPublisher: HarperCollins (20 April 2017)",

Many of their clients wanted to see the standard of the factory, and the Google Business Tour convinces them that Karsten moholt are a high-quality business.\nOverall it took around 5 solid hours to shoot the whole factory. First our Google Certified Trusted Photographer had to work out all the places he was going to set up the camera, in order to get every single inch of the factory in the tour.\nEverywhere he placed the camera he then had to take 12 shots: 3 shots from 4 different angles. He had to make sure one was light, one was dark, and one was very exposed. The reason behind this is so that there is a high dynamic range (HDR) and that every angle of the tour is clear.\nOnce the tour is completely shot and all the photographs are correct, these could then be uploaded to Google to produce the virtual tour.\nKarsten Moholt\u2019s Google Tour",

        "title": "6 Simple Exercises That Show Results After One Workout - Women's Guide",
        "raw_content": "SPLIT SQUATS:\nThis exercise is a hidden gem that not very many people know about. This exercise is mainly used by women for adding some size and firmness to their glutes. A lot of experienced and professional trainers suggest this exercise to the beginners. This can be done with or without dumbbells. However, it is better to use a dumbbell because you will get to see the results more quickly. Position yourself into a staged stance along with the rear foot in an elevated motion and the front foot forward. Hold a dumbbell on each of your hands. Now, let them hand at the sides. This is the starting position. Start by going downwards, flexing the knees and the hips to go down. While doing this, it is critical to keep a good posture. Keep in mind that throughout the whole exercise, you need to keep the body as straight as possible. At the bottom of the movement, drive through the heel to extend the knee as well as the hip to return to the original position. You can exclude the dumbbells if you want.\nKETTLEBELL SWINGS:\nThis is all about the hips. You need to stand over the kettlebell with the chest up, shoulders back and down and feet hip-width apart. The kettlebell should be in the line of the middle of your feet. Select the kettlebell which helps you in swinging freely. Grip the bell with the palms of your hand, and thumbs wrapped around its handle. Stand tall holding the bell. Keep the arms long. Now, lower the rear end of your back and down. This is the time; you should be ready to swing into action. Driving through the heels, explode through the hips to send the weight swinging upward from the quads. Go for the height of the chest along with the arms extended. Now, as the weight of the kettlebell starts to go down, let the weight do the work.\nThis is the only exercise that stimulates both the lower and upper body. Stand to keep your spine straight. Now, you need to set the stance. So, step up to the bar, and in this way, the feet are about the shoulder width apart, and the barbell is at the middle point of the feet. Now, you need to bend the knees and grab the barbell. Actively push the knees out and keep the spine as straight as possible. Hold the barbell in your hand and stand straight. Try to keep it as long as possible, keeping the right posture. Place the barbell right on the place and this is here your deadlift finishes.\nLEG PULL INS:\nThis is one of the best leg exercises. You need to lie on the exercise mat with the legs extended and the hands either the palms facing down beside you or under the glutes. You now, need to bend knees and pull the upper part of the thighs into the midsection. Now, continue this motion until the knees are on the level of your chest. Contract the abs while executing this movement and hold for a second at the top. Inhale and return to the beginning position.\nThese are one of the simplest yet useful exercises of all. It will help you in acquiring the perfect back you are dreaming about. In the starting, you need to stand tall with the hip wide apart and the arms down by the side. Start to lower your body back as much as possible by pushing the hips back and bending your knees. Here, you will push the body weight into your heels. Keep the posture of the body straight. By lowering the body, your arms will raise out in front of you for balancing. The lower part of the body will be parallel to the floor, and chest should be lifted. Pause for a moment and start to lift back in position.\nChin ups are a very beneficial exercise for the beginners. You do not need much to do this exercise, and this is not that difficult. Well, this is how you need to do this. Grab the pull-up bar with the palms of your hand facing the torso and a grip closer than the width of the shoulder. As you have both of your arms extended, holding the bar at the chosen grip width, keep the torso as straight as possible. Create a curvature on the lower back and stick the chest out. This is the starting position. As you breathe out, pull the torso up until your head is around the same level of the pull-up bar. You should concentrate on using the muscles of the biceps and keep the elbows as close to the body as possible. After a second of squeezing your biceps in a contracted position, lower the torso back to the beginning position slowly. Breathe in a while doing this movement.",

        "title": "The Millionaire Next Door - Book Review - The Dollar Build",
        "raw_content": "Title: The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America\u2019s Wealthy\nAuthor: Thomas J. Stanley\nI used to work in an upscale restaurant located near several affluent neighborhoods. During my time as a server, I noticed that some of the most generous tips I received came from t-shirt and jeans guests. I almost felt guilty when an ostensibly blue collar visitor was so benevolent with their hard-earned money. But then I wondered, \u201cWhat if the reason these folks in Walmart outfits were able to be so generous was because they were much wealthier than they appeared?\u201d And what about the man with the fine suit and Corvette? Was it possible that he wasn\u2019t nearly as wealthy as he appeared. Maybe he had maxed out all his credit cards to live the high life and was strapped for cash.\nI didn\u2019t know it at the time, but the answers to these questions already existed in The Millionaire Next Door. In his best-selling book, Thomas J. Stanley presents a new perspective of what wealth in America really looks like. And I\u2019ll give you a fair warning, it\u2019s not what you\u2019d expect.\nTom Stanley\u2019s storied career includes time serving as a business professor, corporate advisor, and finance author. He carved out his most prominent role as an author by devoting decades to studying the behaviors and habits of America\u2019s wealthiest individuals. He composed an in-depth series of financial literature based on his studies\u2019 findings. Among his most popular books are The Millionaire Mind and The Millionaire Next Door.\nHave you ever passed through an affluent neighborhood and wondered what the residents\u2019 financial profiles look like? In The Millionaire Next Door, Thomas J. Stanley cuts through the fa\u00e7ade of luxury status symbols and shows readers how truly wealthy Americans live.\nStanley takes a near-comprehensive look at the lives of hundreds of millionaires and deca-millionaires. He examines their educational backgrounds, marriages, vocations, spending habits, and more! Next, Stanley analyzes the most dominant commonalities among the members of America\u2019s affluent class.\nContrary to popular belief, the typical millionaire is not flashy or overly complex. Stanley\u2019s study revealed that prodigious accumulators of wealth tend to be frugal shoppers who invest wisely and spend deliberately. Moreover, they tend to have a spouse who also believes in operating the household in an efficient cost-conscious manner.\nIn accumulating massive amounts of wealth, the average millionaire prefers to commit financial resources to products and services only when they will add value to their life.\nAccording to Stanley, the vast majority of America\u2019s wealthy recognize that their greatest resource is, and will always be, their time. With that in mind, millionaires tend to live well below their means while putting the rest of their funds to work for them so they can someday gain the freedom of time. Thus, there are tremendously wealthy individuals hidden in plain sight all around us!\nMeanwhile, most of us mistakenly believe that hyper-consumers are actually the wealthiest among us. That\u2019s because we see these individuals feverishly devouring consumer goods and services and assume they have plenty of riches to support their lavish lifestyles. In reality, however, those individuals are often income statement affluent but lack meaningful assets.\nStanley makes insightful observations throughout the book. For example, he points out that IQ and GPA are overrated measures of success in the modern world. Often times, those who score well above average in aptitude tests lack the creative intelligence and practical skills necessary to thrive in society, the workplace, and financially. Many millionaires, Stanley claims, despite average measurable intelligence have creative intellect that catapults them into the top percentile of net worth.\nOne of the more popular and long-lasting concepts from the book is a formula Stanley created to measure one\u2019s ability to accumulate wealth.\nThe formula is simple: multiply your age by your annual pre-tax income and divide that number by 10. That will give you a number. Here\u2019s what that number means\u2026\nLet\u2019s take a 40-year-old making $50k annually. Stanley posits that it would be reasonable to expect that individual to have amassed a net worth of $200k by that age. If that individual, in fact, has a net worth of $300k, Stanley would consider him a Prodigious Accumulator of Wealth (\u201cPAW\u201d). By contrast, the further below $200,000 that individual has amassed, the more severely they\u2019d be considered an Under-Accumulator of Wealth (\u201cUAW\u201d).\nCritics of the formula point out that the formula has a few flaws. Namely, it is best-suited for people aged 40 and up. That\u2019s because it ignores certain factors such as student loan debt that hinders wealth accumulation among younger adults. There\u2019s also the fact that the formula was created during a time of economic prosperity. Even the most prudent investments during depressed market conditions can alter how realistic the expectation may be. Any one who\u2019s read more than a few personal finance books or blogs know that there\u2019s no perfect formula to measure one\u2019s financial status. Nevertheless, Stanley\u2019s formula is often cited in literature because it offers a respectable way to measure an individual\u2019s net worth expectations.\nI give The Millionaire Next Door the highest possible rating of five stars. I firmly believe that all the investing knowledge in the world isn\u2019t enough to overcome habits and lifestyle choices that are incongruent with basic wealth-building principles. This book cuts right to the chase and highlights key lifestyles decisions that America\u2019s wealthy exhibit. Anyone who is serious about becoming wealthy themselves should strongly consider implementing those habits in their own life.\nAlternative Book Recommendation: Reading this book will teach you just as much about lifestyle philosophy as it will about handling money. As you\u2019ll learn, the two topics are intimately interrelated. If you\u2019d like to delve deeper into the lifestyle and character ethics of successful individuals, I\u2019d suggest checking out The 7 Habits of High Effective People.",

Image published in 1732. Photo credit: ancestryimages.com\nIn May of 1487, for unknown reasons, Dowager Queen Elizabeth Woodville, the widow of King Edward IV, was compelled to give up all of her lands and possessions and retire to Bermondsey Abbey beside Southwark. It was a surprising move on the part of King Henry VII and his council and the motives for her retirement have been argued by historians ever since. Whether it was voluntary or involuntary on her part is unknown. It could be as simple as Henry wanted her lands and income for his wife, Elizabeth of York who was the dowager queens\u2019 eldest daughter and had recently given birth to a male heir, Prince Arthur Tudor. Some historians think Elizabeth may have had involvement in the recent rebellion to place the pretender Lambert Simnel on the throne of England.\nWhatever the purpose of her quasi-banishment, she was given an annuity of 400 marks which was later raised to \u00a3400. For the last five years of her life, her financial situation was precarious. She had survived many years of childbearing and had enjoyed robust health most of her life. But as she entered her fifties, her health began to fail. On April 10, 1492 she made her last testament. Here\u2019s a transcription of her will:\n\u201cIn Dei nomine, Amen. The Xth day of April, the year of our Lord God M cccc LXXXXII. I Elizabeth by the grace of God Queen of England, late wife to the most victorious Prince of blessed memory Edward the Fourth, being of whole mind, seeing the world so transitory and no creature certain when they shall depart from hence, having Almighty God fresh in mind, in whom is all mercy and grace, bequeath my soul into his hands, beseeching him, of the same mercy, to accept it graciously, and our blessed Lady Queen of comfort, and all the holy company of heaven, to be good means for me.\nI\u2019tm, I bequeath my body to be buried with the body of my Lord at Windsor, according to the will of my said Lord and mine, without pomp entering or costly expenses done thereabout.\nI\u2019tm, where I have no worldly goods to do the Queen\u2019s Grace, my dearest daughter, a pleaser with, neither to reward any of my children, according to my heart and mind, I beseech Almighty God to bless her grace, with all her noble issue, and with as good heart and mind as is to me possible, I give her Grace my blessing, and all the forsaid my children.\nI\u2019tm, I will that such small stuff and goods that I have to be disposed truly in the contentac\u2019on (settling) of my debts and for the health of my soul, as far as they will extend.\nI\u2019tm, if any of my blood will of my said stuff or goods to me pertaining, I will that they have the preferment before any other.\nAnd of this my present testament I make and ordain mine Executors, that is to say, John Ingilby, Prior of the Charterhouse of Sheen, William Sutton and Thomas Brente, Doctors. And I beseech my said dearest daughter, the Queen\u2019s grace, and my son Thomas, Marques Dorset, to put their good wills and help for the performance of this my testament. In witness whereof, to this my present testament I have set my seal, these witnesses, John, Abbot of the Monastery of Saint Savior of Bermondsey, and Benedictus Cun, Doctor of Physick. Given the day and year abovesaid.\u201d\nIt was a simple will and demonstrates she didn\u2019t have anything of great value to leave her children. She only mentions her daughter Queen Elizabeth of York and her son by her first marriage, the Marques of Dorset. Elizabeth died on June 8, 1492. On June 10, her body was put in a wooden coffin on a low, unadorned hearse and taken by boat to Windsor, accompanied by Prior Ingilby, Dr. Brent, her second cousin Edward Haute, and two gentlewomen, one of them being King Edward IV\u2019s natural daughter Grace.\nThe coffin was taken quietly from the river to Windsor Castle and was received there at eleven o\u2019clock at night by a single priest and a clerk and buried immediately. Two days later, the Marques of Dorset, his half-sisters Anne, Catherine and Bridget, Edmund de la Pole and a handful of other relatives arrived at Windsor. That evening the Bishop of Rochester performed the dirige and requiem mass. One of the heralds at Windsor mentioned there were only four wooden candlesticks around the coffin. He also said there were no new torches in the procession but just several old men holding old torches and torch ends. It wasn\u2019t unusual for someone of her status to request a simple funeral and burial and she may have known her estate was impoverished and unable to afford anything more elaborate. However, tradition required a person be buried according to their rank and estate. This funeral must have been a sad sight and not worthy of a former Queen of England.\nFurther reading: \u201cElizabeth Woodville: Mother of the Princes in the Tower\u201d by David Baldwin\n\u00ab The Death of William de la Pole, 1st Duke of Suffolk ~ Murder at Sea\nLucy Walter, Royal Mistress \u00bb\nfor some reason i\u2019ve always liked Elizabeth Woodville.\nHistory... Our Evolution says:\nReblogged this on History\u2026 Our Evolution and commented:\nElizabeth Woodville\u2019s Last Will and Testament\nGreat article. I love reading about British royal history.\nGregory Urbach says:\nInteresting story. I am not a fan of Elizabeth Woodville, but I do like reading about her and other personalities from this time period.\nMany historians keep referring to the Woodvilles as a rapacious bunch. I\u2019m not so sure. They had a very large family and they did what every other noble family did, which is marry for advantage and dynastic considerations. I will say however, that despite his flaws, Edward 4 is my favorite British King.\nHenry Tudor was obsessed with accumulating wealth, by any means; usually by extortion. I doubt very much that the gutsy Elizabeth would have simply \u201cretired\u201d without a huge shove from Henry.\n\u00a3400 was a decent amount in the late 15th century. Elizabeth Woodville\u201ds last years then should not have been financially precarious. I have often figured that if the retirement was involuntary, she may simply have ticked Henry VII. Family disputes can be a bit riskier if one of the parties is the king.\nShe may have retired voluntarily. Three of her children (Richard Grey, Edward V, Richard of York), two brothers, and her father, had died by violence; her oldest daughter was now Queen, her grandson heir apparent. Her death 5 years after leaving court may indicate poor health (or it may not). Maybe she was simply tired, perhaps even sick of it all. I don\u2019t buy the theory of involvement in the Lambert plot. As far as I know, that idea originated with Francis Bacon in the 1620s.\nI agree with you Richard. I think it might have been voluntary and that she wasn\u2019t involved in the Simnel plot. I have read that Elizabeth\u2019s surviving Grey son might have been involved in the Simnel plot.\nMoira.ford says:\nA great post.A lot of people always wondered who Grace was,and didn\u2019t know that she was the late King\u2019s daughter. Also that his daughter Bridget who by this time was in a nunnery, actually left it for the only time in her life to attend her mother\u2019s funeral .It is good to see them mentioned.\nI haven\u2019t heard of his daughter Grace, who was her mother?\nNo one knows who her mother was.\nI enjoy reading your articles on British history. This one was particularly interesting \u2013 what a sad ending for a very interesting woman.\nI enjoyed reading your article. I can understand the quick burial as she had been dead for 3 days in warm weather. Her funeral seems like a memorial service with such a small group of people attending. For someone who was at the center of events for so long, it seems anticlimactic.",

That is, diversity is a full governing system its proponents want to spread throughout society, with its own rules, goods, rights, and duties. The goal is revolutionary\u2014establishment of a new way of life in which chosen \u201cdifferences\u201d are affirmed and valued for their own sake and for the kind of society they shape. What this means in practice is that groups, habits, images, and practices (both public and private) associated with mainstream American culture are to be de-emphasized and de-valued so that what diversity proponents see as the homogeneous vision of an \u201cOzzie and Harriet\u201d lifestyle may be eliminated. The alternative proposed is something new, more fragmented, and predominantly populated by formerly less visible and valued groups and practices. The revolutionary change is demanded largely on the grounds of justice, and it is undeniable that grave injustices were committed, and still are committed, in the name of America, abstractly defined. But the goal is not an end to abuses; it is, rather, an end to our pre-existing way of life and its replacement by a very new one.\nDiversity is very much about appearances\u2014about making institutions and communities \u201clook like America,\u201d by which is meant consisting of a specific mix of ethnic, racial, and gender groups. But the diversity regime also entails rejecting the \u201cliberal\u201d values of individual virtue and merit, and of constitutional procedures and protections many had thought compatible with both individualism and more \u201cprogressive\u201d ways of ordering public and private life. Critics of diversity often highlight the highly tendentious nature of its claims that Hollywood and Madison Avenue images oppressed most Americans before diversity became the ruling ideology. But the very point of diversity is that there is no real distinction between public imagery, public policy, and society. That is, the diversity regime rests on a distinctly non-liberal conception of society as intrinsically and pervasively political.\nWhat I would call the diversity regime is a state in the old, total conception. It is a ruling structure and ideology that seeks to reconfigure all of society, including our personal lives. It is a return to the ancient Greek conception of the polis as a city-community. In ancient times, and in revolutionary regimes patterned thereon (one thinks, here, of Jacobin France) the \u201cconstitution\u201d of the community constructed all of life, including where the people would eat (and who bakes the cakes), and how and who they would worship.\nLike many utopian ideologies, diversity does have a governing logic. But it is not the logic of liberal tolerance, or even of individual autonomy. As Charles Taylor pointed out many years ago,[i] diversity\u2019s logic is one of recognition. Taylor, a qualified supporter of diversity politics (and all things left) sees their origins in the collapse of \u201csocial hierarchies,\u201d by which he means much more than the downfall of feudalism and aristocracy. On Taylor\u2019s view, through the rejection of hierarchical structures of politics, society, and religion, all of us have come to see human dignity as an essential part of our being, and as requiring recognition and affirmation of each of our own authentic selves. Those selves being formed in significant measure by social identities (i.e. not purely \u201cinwardly generated\u201d) we must be \u201crecognized\u201d for social identities as well.\nTaylor\u2019s argument distorts history and especially the powerful role once played by religion in promoting the dignity of persons, but his is the dominant view among our politicized intellectual class. He in effect endorses the diversity regime by arguing that all societies must recognize the limits of liberal proceduralism. \u201cSome\u201d liberal rights are universal and must be protected, but others (including non-discrimination) are negotiable. The negotiations, Taylor argues, in large measure should take place in university-level debates; investigation of the worth of various cultures should begin from a presumption of worth, but may result in the determination that the culture in question, or parts of it, are in fact not worthy of respect. Here one thinks, again, of the diversity regime\u2019s hostility toward those seen as having too much power, or those Taylor would deem \u201carrogant\u201d for not wanting to re-evaluate their culture through the ideological lens of diversity.\nThe Canadian regime, much further along in institutionalizing diversity than the American, shows the direction in which Taylor\u2019s multiculturalism tends. In it, members of various groups (especially Francophones but also various indigenous groups and even smaller immigrant groups) demand recognition from the state, including employment quotas and linguistic services on account of the social and political relevance of their categories, experiences, and oppressions. More generally, in any diversity regime these groups in effect compete for positions in government, private business, media, and the university on the grounds of their historically grounded disabilities. The state serves as the arbiter of grievances and, more important, the source of benefits and rules for their distribution. Those benefits, from cash payments to placement on preference lists for employment quotas, are the stuff of public debate and political power.\nThis is hardly a unique regime. As Thomas Sowell pointed out a decade ago,[ii] a significant number of countries, including India, Malaysia, Indonesia and Nigeria, for many years have implemented preferential programs, justified on grounds highly similar to those for American affirmative action, which in effect institutionalized diversity regimes. As Sowell points out, such regimes not only treat citizens differently according to their membership in various groups, they come to re-constitute their societies in accordance with a vision of relative power and worth according to such memberships.\nLike utopian visions in general, diversity it is at war with nature; it foments distrust and conflict among groups (one need only look at current conditions from Baltimore to New York, to Ferguson and now Cleveland) leading to further radicalization of politics, to violence, and tends toward public bankruptcy regime breakdown. In India recently this has meant a veering toward communist regimes and movements in some provinces, along with a general \u201cbacksliding\u201d toward Hinduism at the center. Within an intermediate time frame, though, the state relies on force and fraud to rule, meaning that it cannot operate according to law. Its conception of the person and society requires impositions that by nature undermine central concepts and institutions of our lives (e.g. the family). These impositions also damage the exoskeleton, as it were, of constitutional governance. Three social institutions in particular\u2014freedom of association, limited government and the rule of law\u2014are at risk, here. These institutions are crucial to constitutional governance and as they crumble under the force of the diversity regime, so does constitutional government itself.\nIn a perceptive piece of commentary[iii] Yuval Levin examines contemporary conflicts over same-sex marriage in terms of the new power wielded by what he calls the Church of the Left. This church, in Levin\u2019s view, should be seen as a kind of religious establishment; it allows for more or less toleration of divergent viewpoints and actions depending on their level of deviation and perceived danger to its ability to promulgate and enforce what it deems correct policies. Diversity has become the creed of an established church in the old world sense of an orthodox institution with a creed, a hierarchy, and the ability and willingness to use coercion to maintain its authority.\nThus, for example, we have the problem of those who happen to be Christian and do not want to participate in celebrations of same-sex unions by making custom wedding cakes or working as photographers. As we know, these people are told that they have a duty to perform as demanded, requiring that they change their viewpoints or ignore them, or else withdraw from their chosen profession. Otherwise, fines, license revocation, and potential jail time may ensue as punishment for a lack of celebration of diversity. It would be easy to point to the hypocrisy of the \u201cdiverse\u201d position, here. In particular, one does not hear of Muslim bakers, at least as likely as Christians to refuse to engage in this rather specific form of intimate commerce (taking part in a celebration), being punished for such refusals. The implication is that there is an inconsistency, one that, for example, violates the rule of law by punishing different people differently for violating the same rule. It is important to understand, however, that there is a logic\u2014though not a legal logic\u2014to the disparate treatment of these suspect groups.\nLike all establishments, the diversity regime (and its Church of the Left) treats dissenters, not merely according to their violation of established rules, but also according to the level of danger it sees particular dissenting groups as presenting to its own power. In the United States, there are far more Christians than Muslims. Moreover, our culture is deeply rooted in Christian ideas, associations, and presumptions. Thus, Christianity\u2019s ways of thinking and acting constitute more of a barrier than Islam\u2019s to construction of a new, diverse society. Because the goal is structural, to root out and replace a particular way of life, it is important to choose one\u2019s adversaries according to the level of danger they present.\nAs to Muslims in America, they may be incorporated into the new regime in a different manner, as officially oppressed minorities whose insular practices for now are irrelevant because not powerful in the public square. As the French example shows (scarves, crosses, and the like), the secular authorities are quite willing to put down resistance from minority religious groups when they feel it necessary. But the overall goal is the smashing of traditional structures of thought and value, of which Islam is not yet recognized as a major part in Europe, to produce a \u201cnew\u201d way of life.\nThis \u201cway\u201d is not precisely communitarian, certainly not as any conservative such as Robert Nisbet would understand the term. The local associations that once were the center of social and cultural life all stand under the judgment of the diversity regime\u2014as Taylor argued, all cultures are presumed worthy, but may be found unworthy after examination. Moreover, individualism remains key because individual persons will be protected in their decisions as to which groups to join and/or exit. Gender and even (as with Elizabeth Warren) race may be accepted as the result of choice. That said, the state will organize society in such a way as to prioritize the identities chosen by individuals. Government benefits, rights, and even jobs will be distributed according to the status and power of various groups within the system. Diversity quotas and the diversity hiring machine, as I have argued here before, aim to produce a certain look to all institutions and communities but, more important, a specific ideological cast of mind that rejects Western traditions.\nSeveral problems arise from this vision of political society. First, while individuals in principle will have utter freedom, even to define who they are, meaningful freedom of association is eliminated. This is so because the diversity regime is hostile toward practices it deems \u201cdiscriminatory\u201d or even \u201cexclusive\u201d or \u201cnon-inclusive.\u201d Moreover, numerous groups will need to be kept in check lest they \u201cempower\u201d what the diversity regime would consider retrograde views\u2014racism, sexism, homophobia, and so on. In addition, the state must not, in principle, be limited in its ability, or even in the tools it may use, to \u201cfix\u201d individuals and groups to bring them in line with the ruling ideology. Thus, limited government must go, and so must the rule of law.\nFreedom of association is perhaps the central, most crucial means of maintaining ordered liberty. As Harold J. Berman argued,[iv] the western legal tradition (and with it constitutional government as we know it) began with the conflict between the Catholic Church and various monarchs who asserted their right to choose their own bishops and, through them, to control all spiritual lives and communities within their realms. The Pope\u2019s (partial) victory in this struggle allowed for establishment of a separate, ecclesiastical jurisdiction helping to check the secular power and foment the growth of legal rights and restrictions. Separate customs, rights, and even court systems developed for religious issues (including family law and, for many years in many areas, laws relating to poverty and even, in the law merchant, much commercial law). The result was, in a phrase, limited, constitutional government.\nThe rights of communities buttressed the rights of all by limiting the powers of any central government. Today we see an aggressive reversal of this process, in large measure on the grounds that diversity requires it. Thus, for example, judges in the state of California cannot serve as Boy Scout leaders because this would be seen as violating ethical rules barring discriminating against homosexuals. This rule may be rescinded at any time, however, because the Boy Scout leadership is moving to eliminate its ban on openly homosexual scout leaders\u2014itself another victory for diversity politics as traditional religious groups struggle to find and found alternative groups.\nAlso relevant is the Supreme Court decision in Christian Legal Society v. Martinez.[v] In this case the Supreme Court upheld the decision of the University of California Hastings School of Law to deny equal status and defund the local chapter of the Christian Legal Society (CLS). The decision was made in response to CLS\u2019s policy limiting the right to vote for leadership positions to those who signed its statement of purpose, which used overtly religious language in stating that sexual relations should be engaged in only within traditional marriage. While the terms of this statement clearly would deny leadership roles to heterosexual students engaging in such conduct (presumably the majority on campus) it also denied such roles to homosexual students on the same grounds, and this latter element was found discriminatory. As a result, CLS was forced off campus. The Supreme Court majority upheld the law school action in part on the grounds that the price paid by CLS was minimal, something highly doubtful under the circumstances and, involving as it did official recognition, certainly not something it would have deemed negligible had the parties\u2019 positions been reversed. In effect, diversity criteria are being used to determine which groups merit recognition, and which should be \u201crecognized\u201d as illegitimate, fringe elements that might not merit police action, but should be marginalized.\nIn effect, non-diverse (one might today say \u201ccountercultural\u201d) associations are being intentionally stigmatized and marginalized so that they cannot undermine the ability of the diversity regime to redefine standards of conduct. We already have seen where this leads. One prominent example is the Supreme Court refusal to hear a challenge to the California Supreme Court\u2019s decision upholding a state requirement that Catholic Charities pay for insurance providing abortifacients to its employees.[vi] The organization might have been allowed to maintain its religiously-based position against birth control and abortion, but only by being so pervasively religious that it would neither hire nor serve non-Catholics, meaning that it would have to give up its outreach, its public face, and its mission as a Christian organization in public life. Freedom of association, the key to liberty, and also the key to protecting people against an overreaching state, is only what the state decides it can be.\nThis points to the problem of limited government. State and increasingly the federal government now are in a strong position to regulate the conduct and membership of various organizations. As well, the federal government, through Obamacare, now is determining the healthcare insurance decisions of private organizations, including even the Little Sisters of the Poor.[vii] The distinction between public and private (or, more accurately, governmental and social) spheres being rejected by diversity\u2019s ideology, the distinction no longer serves to limit the power of the regime.\nPerhaps most worrisome is the Obama Administration\u2019s decision to pursue its diversity policies without abiding by the rule of law. In particular, many of the major decisions affecting the rights of associations and even the conduct of public institutions are being made, not by the legislature, and not according to settled rules, but through executive branch decrees. The most powerful tool of executive overreach has been \u201cdisparate impact analysis.\u201d This creed is enshrined in law in only highly narrow and specific circumstances, but widely adopted as an investigative policy and outcome-demand nonetheless.\nDisparate impact analysis is the quasi-law of the land. That is, while not called for in the law (other than in a very few sad, damaging instances) it is enforced as part of the law of the land by the Justice Department, and even the Department of Education through internal memos, policy statements, and other sub-legal orders. According to disparate impact analysis, the state should assume discriminatory motives are behind even the most neutral policies (such as, for example, an employer\u2019s requirement that workers obtain a high school diploma) effect members of one racial group more than another. The assumption is utterly specious because it intentionally ignores highly relevant factors (e.g. poor schools in given areas).[viii] It also is a powerful tool for asserting executive control over everything from hiring policies in private businesses to local city policing, to school district suspension policies.\nAs an example, in the Minneapolis Public Schools, among others, it now is official policy that within four years the district must eliminate \u201cdisproportionality between black and brown students and their white peers.\u201d \u201cDisproportionality\u201d in what, exactly? School suspensions for non-violent offenses. The school system is to enforce policies by the (racial) numbers.[ix] There now will be suspension quotas. As I noted in a previous article, here, according to the new Minneapolis policy:\nMoving forward, every suspension of a black or brown student will be reviewed by the superintendent\u2019s leadership team. The school district aims to more deeply understand the circumstances of suspensions with the goal of providing greater supports to the school, student or family in need. This team could choose to bring in additional resources for the student, family and school.\nAs bad as this policy\u2019s clear violation of any notion of equal protection of the laws, as bad as its clear message that \u201cblack or brown\u201d students are somehow by nature in need of additional nanny-state protections, is its imposition through executive fiat. No legislation is behind this massive attack on equal treatment under the authority of government agencies (e.g. public schools and the national education bureaucracy). It is an ideological policy implemented through the bullying of local organizations, with the power of the federal government to deny funding or initiate expensive, time-consuming review and even lawsuits used as an effective cudgel to force compliance.\nIncreasingly throughout our nation executive branch policies are being implemented through Executive Orders and simple policy statements that are enforced through the threat of legal action. Those subjected to these threats sign \u201cconsent decrees\u201d in order to protect themselves from bankruptcy. Those decrees then turn diversity ideology into diversity policy. Of course, such tactics are unnecessary in many institutions, where administrators simply institute diversity policies on their own, secure in the knowledge that the federal government will \u201chave their back,\u201d should anyone challenge the policies as violating former constitutional rights.\nIn sum, where the radical politics of the 1960s began with the cry that \u201cthe system\u201d was to blame for society\u2019s ills, today a new system has been constructed with the goal of restructuring society along new ideological lines. The price has been high, not just for those in disfavored groups who have lost job opportunities, not just for those whose voices are being stifled, who are forced to act in ways that undermine their most deeply held beliefs, but for the millions of people seen (often even by themselves) as beneficiaries of the new regime. The culture of dependency forged by mandated programs and quotas, the group hostility fomented by conflict over access to political power, and the breakdown of norms of public civility, voluntary association, and recognition of internal merit have created a public sphere dominated by resentment. Violence is all but inevitable under such circumstances, as is further erosion of long-held constitutional rights. Only a rejection of the diversity at the heart of this regime can bring peace and any hope of restoring a way of life that promises mutual respect and ordered liberty.\n[i] Charles Taylor, Multiculturalism and the Politics of Recognition (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1992).\n[ii] Thomas Sowell, Affirmative Action Around the World: An Empirical Study (New Haven: Yale Nota Bene, 2005).\n[iii] http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/416421/church-left-yuval-levin\n[iv] Harold J.

Actually though, this regime is quite long-in-the-tooth\u201d already, and the cultural taskmasters are moving on. So I suggest the author try to squelch his distaste, as follows:\nThe established tenets of diversity as hammered out by the ruling neoliberals, are ripe for exploitation by pluralist \u201cconservatives\u201d\u2026 Yes we still like to think of ourselves as conserving traditional culture, but our culture is now the revolutionary one, and we need to apply for room at the table. One of the few ways we have, is not to plead for preservation of 2000 year of Western Civ\u2013 this has fallen on deaf ears. It is to take up the same diversity logic that was just hardened into gospel, in the cause of exposing the real Gospel. You see, the architects of uniformity (yes, diversity is a smokescreen for uniformity) have worked so many angles, they have given us this valuable ammunition.\nJun 6, 2015 at 1:16 am Reply\nThis helps to explain enormously, for Dr Kirk and I revelled in real diversity \u2013 quirky places and cultures. And I teach empathy to communicators helping them to understand and motivate. So Mr Mullally citing \u201ca smokescreen for uniformity\u201d makes it clear. Most Americans like true diversity reflecting the melting pot, so modern diversity is Orwellian Newspeak like \u201cWar is Peace\u201d etc. I suppose a strategy may be to unify the cultures excluded as official minorities \u2013 Jews, Koreans, etc., who thrived without the state and whose fealty the state either owns or does not need \u2013 but whose earned places in life are threatened by give-aways to other groups.",

        "title": "BlackRock Investigates Cryptocurrencies | The Independent Republic",
        "raw_content": "BlackRock Group Shines a Positive Light on Cryptocurrencies\nThe price of Bitcoin is on the rise once again thanks to a recent report that investment firm BlackRock is looking into the potential uses of cryptocurrencies and blockchains. Initially reported by Reuters, the latest rumors suggest that BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has set up a group to investigate the underlying infrastructure of digital currencies.\nFor industry analysts and investors, the revelation is reason to be bullish given Fink\u2019s previous position on the topic. Although the man himself has moved to calm the enthusiasm by stating that none of the company\u2019s clients have inquired about crypto investments. However, the news that he is overseeing an internal thinktank seems to be a far cry from his recent comments that cryptocurrencies are nothing more than an \u201cindex of money laundering.\u201d\nAttitudes to Cryptos Are Changing\nWhile many would dispute that, the summary wasn\u2019t made without good reason. Despite its positives, cryptocurrencies aren\u2019t immune from criminal activity. The Ethereum Twitter scandal involving Elon Musk is just one example of how those with bad intentions are exploiting the technologies anonymous protocols. Although cybercrime is likely to remain an issue for cryptos in the same way it plagues all online technology, things are changing. As established companies start to embrace blockchains and more, a new era of regulation and control is taking hold. Indeed, following the news that the Swiss Stock Exchange will soon be launching a platform to regulate cryptos, traders have once again become interested in the price of Ethereum and its peers.\nAs a result of this continued move towards legitimacy, BlackRock is interested in how it can turn the positive aspects of cryptos into a money-making venture. Being the largest asset manager in the world with $6.3 trillion in assets, BlackRock has the power to make Bitcoin et al a mainstream commodity. With a large portion of the investment elite\u2019s resources under its control, Fink\u2019s company can essentially move the needle with a single swipe. Put another way, if BlackRock backs cryptos and moves its assets into the market, the price of every major coin could moon.\nHowever, before traders could get too excited, the investment firm clarified that crypto technology had been a point of interest for the last three years.\n\u201cLike most financial institutions, BlackRock has had a working group since 2015 that meets periodically to exchange information on blockchain and consists of employees from various parts of the business. We have been looking at blockchain technology for several years, recognizing potential for shared processes and data across market participants, clearing, settlement and reconciliation and simplified securities issuance,\u201d a spokesperson for the company told CNBC.\nThe Market Moves in Positive Ways\nIrrespective of when the group was formed and what its intentions are, the Bitcoin price index has reacted. When the story broke on July 16, trading was up 4.4% to push the value of a single BTC coin to $6,600. While that\u2019s still a significant clip below the near $20,000 high seen in 2017, interest from BlackRock is being taken as a positive. Should the company\u2019s analysts recommend crypto investments to its clients, new capital could flood the market. While that won\u2019t necessarily ensure the long-term survival of cryptocurrencies, it could be a sign of things to come. Fidelity Investments has already been active in the crypto space and more asset managers are now eyeing up the market following BlackRock\u2019s announcement.\nAnalysists predict a recovery of the bitcoin market\n\u201cIt definitely is causing some excitement. The idea of big financial firms moving into crypto certainly isn\u2019t new, and this is a trend we\u2019ve been noticing gaining strength since November,\u201d Mati Greenspan of eToro told CNBC on July 16.\nGiven the fall from grace Bitcoin and its peers experienced at the start of 2017, analysts are starting to find a renewed sense of hope for the market. Now the hype has subsided, multiple businesses, investors and regulatory authorities are starting to take the technology seriously. From South Korea\u2019s plans to regulate the industry to Opera releasing an integrated browser-based wallet, a variety of entities are working to explore different facets of the crypto world.\nIn practice, this means we\u2019re starting to see cryptos influence data processing, banking transactions and move a step closer to becoming a mainstream currency. When these forces are taken as a collective, the future looks bright. While the true trajectory of the industry may still be unclear, more investment can only be a good thing. Whether or not BlackRock\u2019s thinktank redefines the market remains to be seen. However, as is often the case, any publicity is potentially good publicity.",

It\u2019s something about these types of cases that pulls me in. I\u2019m not one that gets excited about seeing pictures of dead bodies and crime scenes; it\u2019s more of the human connection, or lack thereof that draws me in.\nWhen time permits, I enjoy watching the Investigation Discovery channel. I have a few favorite shows, and enjoy catching up on them when I can. It always amazes me just how depraved some individuals can be. The lack of empathy from some of the offenders is astonishing at times.\nThere are however, some shows that I have such a difficult time getting into.\nDisappeared tops that list. This show focuses on individuals who have gone missing and the emotional toll that it takes on their families. I become incredibly anxious when trying to watch this show; it is heartbreaking to me that people either feel so negatively about life that they take off, or are taken against their will.\nMajority of these cases are not resolved and the families must learn to live without their loved ones. I could not imagine what that must be like. How do you go on? What is considered normal after something like this?\nWhen a family is asked whether it would be better if a body was found, the answer is usually yes. Having a body to bury allows some closure to happen. Every day, week, month and year without any solid leads can bring about its own type of special hell.\nWriting this post leaves me grasping for thoughts and I feel that I\u2019m starting to ramble on, so I will close by saying my heart goes out to each and every one of the families. I pray that God brings them comfort in these difficult times.\nTagged Blog, Blogging, Crime, Faith, Hope, Missing\nNext Article Reflections 5.1.17",

        "raw_content": "Country of the Week- Switzerland!\nJaqueline Maddison\nSwitzerland is one of the world\u2019s most beautiful countries. Switzerland borders France, Italy, Austria, Liechtenstein, and Germany. Most people tend to think of Switzerland as mainly a product producer. According to (myswitzerland)Switzerland as a producer of many fine products, such as: cheese, chocolate, watches, knives and many more various items. We know them for quality, but we often pass up Switzerland for its other natural beauties, like the Swiss Alps and Lauterbrunnen Valley. The country is largely covered by vast mountainous regions and forests. In between the natural wonders of Switzerland sits small remote villages etched in culture and rich in diversity.\nSome of the most notable and popular villages in Switzerland accoring to(theculturetrip) include: Guarda, Morcote, and Interlaken. Switzerland is one a country for outdoor people including hikers, campers, and even photographers-considering the landscapes and photo opportunities! In the 1800\u2019s, many of the Swiss colonists built these villages as settlements. These villages have old architecture, and Swiss customs built into their walls.\nOne of the most celebrated and cultural influences is music. During the years of colonization and settlement, the Swiss developed a traditional style of music. This music is known as alpine folk, and it is played with traditional instruments, including: accordion, violin, clarinet, jews harp, and dulcimer(fretted string instrument). This music developed over generations, and became a major tradition which remains to modern day.\nMoreover, Switzerland has massive music festivals in the villages and as well swiss cities. In villages the swiss also have made a name in fine craftsmanship in again, things like watches, knives, furniture, and have created fine recipes. The Swiss live very peaceful and happy lifestyles. Traditionally, they have lived this way since their colonization. In the 1800\u2019s, the Swiss signed an international neutrality treaty and have stayed neutral for over 200 years; including both World Wars. During this time they took many refugees. Since they are located in the center of Europe, and many countries were involved in the wars, many people fled to Switzerland, which led the country into a more diverse atmosphere. People fled from Germany, France, Austria, Italy and many other countries. This introduced Switzerland to many new cultures and customs which they adapted to overtime.\nThis made Switzerland one of the worlds most diverse and interesting countries. This country is filled with a heavy European influence, due to the combination of many many different individual European countries! During the war, people from almost every European nation fled to this country for safety. Due to the country\u2019s neutrality policy, many people can avoid about war or conflict, which makes this a country to settle down in. Regardless, for vacation, if you\u2019re someone who likes hiking, skiing, cold weather, history, and a hobby for craftsmanship- this country is a must see!",

        "raw_content": "This book simultaneously tells of two crimes that take place in Oklahoma City in the summer of 1986. Six people are brutally murdered during an armed robbery at a movie theatre. That same summer a teenage girl goes missing at the fair and is never found. Twenty-five years later the survivors of these crimes are still struggling to make sense of it all.\nIt's a good one. Both crimes are not fully understood, so we are swept up in not only two mysteries, but also in the lives of the survivors.\nI would recommend this one! Another good beach read.\n\u201cWyatt didn\u2019t think the cop was dumb. The cop, like everyone, was just keeping his finger on the pulse of his own self-interest. He had real crimes to solve, real criminals to catch, so he saw the evidence in front of him the way he wanted to see it. Humans, by nature, did this all the time. They wanted something, so they found reasons to support that desire. And then they convinced themselves that the reasons came first, that the reasons led to the desire and not the other way around. \u201c\nWhich storyline was your favorite?\nBlack Water Rising by Attica Locke\nCuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith\nThe Round House by Louise Erdich\nAlly Bertsche\nI liked this book a lot as a summer or weekend read! Wyatt's story line was my favorite. Maybe because the murder/robbery at the movie theater was very intense/traumatic and I wanted to get to the bottom of it.\nThe only thing that bothered me about this book was how all the witnesses remembered little things/interactions they had with people 20 years ago. I found this hard to believe.\nBut that's a minor detail and one I tried to gloss over....",

        "title": "UK Homes Have 5 WiFi Devices Connected",
        "raw_content": "UK households have an average of 4.6 devices connected to WiFi\nA new report has unearthed some interesting tidbits regarding the current state of knowledge and how UK households are connecting to the Internet.\nIn the 2011 Connectivity Report, which was commissioned by TP-Link, a global provider of networking products, it was found that UK households have an average of 4.6 devices connected to a home WiFi network at any given time. This could be laptops, tablets, printers, games consoles, desktop computers, smartphones or even WiFi-enabled photoframes.\nDespite the high level of connectivity, almost a third (32%) of UK Internet users don\u2019t know what their broadband speed is, whilst half (51%) would like to have faster broadband.\nThe fact that a third of those surveyed don\u2019t know what broadband speed they\u2019re supposed to be receiving is perhaps indicative of the discrepancy between what internet service providers (ISPs) promise on the surface, and what is actually delivered. Back in June we reported that the UK\u2019s Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has ruled that Virgin Media overstepped the mark in its \u2018Stop the broadband con\u2019 campaign.\nThe Virgin Media campaign was supported by many though. Advertising speeds preceded by \u2018up to\u2019 has been highlighted before by regulatory body Ofcom, and previous research found that only 14% of customers on broadband services advertised as \u2018up to 20Mbps\u2019 received speeds of over 12Mbps, and well over half enjoyed average speeds of 6Mbps or less. On that front, Virgin Media argued that its campaign was designed to highlight \u201cwidespread dissatisfaction among consumers about the advertising of broadband speeds.\u201d\n\u201cThe reality is that so many consumers just accept the network packages offered by their ISP and don\u2019t understand how limiting some of the offers can be\u201d, said Eric Wang, UK Country Manager and TP-Link. \u201cThis research serves to underline the importance of the connected home. On average with people accessing the internet via 4 devices at any one time, having a robust home network has never been more important.\u201d\nWhilst the UK is becoming increasingly and ubiquitously connected, we recently reported that 8m Britons have never been online, though this figure is decreasing rapidly. In the three months to the end of September 2011, the number of UK adults who had never visited a website fell by almost 300,000, which is a big drop compared to the previous quarter which only saw a decrease of 12,000.\nThe TP-LINK Connectivity Report was commissioned in November 2011, and it surveyed 1,000 UK adults through Redshift Media Research.\nRead next: Google Wallet reportedly coming to the UK, in time for the 2012 London Olympics",

        "raw_content": "Zeitgeist: 9/11 \u2018Was an Inside Job\u2019 Also: It Won a \u2018Progressive\u2019 Film Award and Is Based on \u2018New Age\u2019 Sources\nFor the benefit of David Dayen, the liberal blogger who claimed that the 2007 film Zeigeist is \u201cright wing,\u201d here is a screen-cap from the movie:\nThe 911 Truth\nCriminal Elements within the US Government\nstaged a \u201cFalse Flag\u201d Terror Attack on its own\ncitizens, in order to manipulate public\nperception into supporting its agenda.\nThey have been doing this for years.\nClick here to see the video (this part comes at 1:47 of the clip). And this is what gets me about fact-challenged dishonest dilberts like David Dayen: They can\u2019t be bothered to do any actual reporting or research.\nNo, that would be beneath them.\nInstead, it\u2019s much easier to avoid that grubby work and take someone\u2019s else\u2019s word about what\u2019s in Zeitgeist:\n[T]he rhetoric on the far, far right played a role in amping up the paranoia of a mentally unbalanced man. In fact, one of the shooter\u2019s friends focused on a movie that echoes many of the themes on the fringe right as extremely important to shaping Loughner\u2019s worldview. . . .\nC\u2019mon: Whose \u201cfringe\u201d asserts that 9/11 was an \u201cInside Job\u201d? When Zeitgeist was produced in 2007, who was hectoring us about \u201ccriminal elements in the US Government\u201d?\nDon\u2019t get me wrong: I\u2019m more than happy to give David Dayen enough rope to hang himself. And I\u2019m grateful that a contributor to a leading liberal blog has granted my premise, namely that Zeigeist was \u201cextremely important to shaping Loughner\u2019s worldview.\u201d\nBut David Dayen just grabbed that \u201crhetoric of the far, far right\u201d stuff out of thin air \u2014 he took somebody else\u2019s word for it. Whereas I, by contrast, dug in on this subject last Wednesday and bulldogged it. Thursday, I embedded the whole thing in a single post and \u2014 after the Google Video version that had been online for three years suddenly got taken down \u2014 spent more than an hour yesterday re-embedding the YouTube version.\nHere I\u2019m going to imitate Al Gore\u2019s famous tobacco rant: I\u2019ve watched Zeitgeist, I\u2019ve studied Zeitgeist, I\u2019m a fair way down the road to being a freaking expert on Zeitgeist, and dumbass David Dayen is not going to get away with telling me that it\u2019s \u201cright wing.\u201d\nDon\u2019t take my word about this, though. Let\u2019s ask progressive leaders what they think about Zeigeist:\nArtivist Flim Festival\nFounded in 2003 as a 501c3 charitable organization, the ARTIVIST FILM FESTIVAL is the only festival dedicated to raising awareness for International Human Rights, Children\u2019s Advocacy, Environmental Preservation, and Animal Advocacy through Film. . . .ARTIVIST is a leader in the Progressive and Green movement, and has received public endorsements from various global leaders and organizations including the UNITED NATIONS and Claes Nobel of the Nobel Peace Prize Family.\nGot that? Here is an organization that proclaims itself \u201ca leader in the Progressive and Green movement\u201d \u2014 endorsed by the United Nations, no less! \u2014 and guess who won their Best Feature award in 2007?\nSee? You don\u2019t have to take my word about the political orientation of Zeitgeist. (Strange coincidence: Guess who else has been recognized by the Artivist Festival? Alyssa Milano! Maybe David Dayen wants to lump her in with the \u201cfar, far right,\u201d but . . . well, never mind.) The fans of Zeitgeist are proud to proclaim their allegiances and ideology, as for example the \u201cactivist atheist\u201d forum that celebrated that 2007 award for Zeitgeist. Let David Dayen show me the right-wing site that was celebrating the success of Zeitgeist in 2007, and I\u2019ll buy him a beer. But he can produce nothing of the sort, because Zeitgeist isn\u2019t right-wing.\nJordan Maxwell and the Kook Connection\nOK, so what about that anti-Federal Reserve stuff in the third part of Zeitgeist? Where does that stuff come from?\nDavid Dayen associates it with the John Birch Society, but he guesses wrong. The actual source on which Zeitgeist filmmaker Peter Joseph Merola relies is anti-Masonic conspiracy theorist Jordan Maxwell. And it is Maxwell whose ideas tie together the seemingly disparate themes in Zeitgeist \u2014 the anti-Christian theme of Part I and the anti-banking theme of Part III.\nBecause Merola has posted a PDF \u201cCompanion Source Guide\u201d for his movie. If you\u2019ll search for \u201cMaxwell,\u201d you\u2019ll see that Maxwell is cited on page 66 (associating the Christian cross with the Zodiac) and page 74 (making a millennial claim about the \u201cAge of Aquarius\u201d). On page 98, we find that the source for these citations is a 2000 book, That Old-Time Religion: The Story of Religious Foundations, by Maxwell, Paul Tice and Alan Snow (with a chapter by Gerald Massey). Here is one Amazon reviewer\u2019s 5-star rave about that book:\nThis book proves that just about everything in Christianity actually came from Egypt and other ancient cultures and religions. . . . Christianity is a pagan sun religion.\nWhich is a lie, of course, but my point is that this concept is shared by Maxwell and New Age author D.M. Murdock (a/k/a Achyra S), the primary adviser on Part I of Zeitgeist. Both Maxwell and Murdock evidently derive their ideas from Massey, a 19th-century autodidact. Of the other co-authors of That Old-Time Religion, Tice is a prolific writer/editor of New Age books, including The Historical Jesus and the Mythical Christ: Natural Genesis and Typology of Equinoctial Christolatry and Vril or Vital Magnetism: Secret Doctrine of Ancient Atlantis, Egypt, Chaldea and Greece; and Snow is an author of children\u2019s fiction.\nSo Maxwell appears as a source in Part I of Zeitgeist, then re-appears in Part III, as explained on pages 218-219 of the \u201cCompanion Resource Guide,\u201d where Maxwell is cited as source for the quote, \u201cThey do not want you to think too much. . . . You had better wake up and understand that there are people guiding your life, and you don\u2019t even know it.\u201d\nFreemasons: They\u2019re Everywhere!\nThe source is Maxwell\u2019s 2003 book, Matrix of Power: How the World Has Been Controlled By Powerful People Without Your Knowledge. Let\u2019s quote a couple of the five-star reviews, shall we?\nThis Book exposes it all, from Illuminated-Freemasonry to the Illuminati and the nefarious dealings of the Vatican and the Jesuit order. Make no mistake about it, if you want a clear understanding as to why the world is in entropy. This book delivers the goods. . . .\nThis is a great little book that delves into astro-theology as well as occult conspiracies in the western world. . . .\nHmmm. The Illuminati, Jesuits, \u201castro-theology\u201d and \u201coccult conspiracies\u201d \u2014 I\u2019m pretty sure that stuff is in the Republican Party platform, aren\u2019t you? Maxwell turned his book into a series of online videos. Let\u2019s look at one segment of that, shall we?\nHmmm. Adam Weishaupt, Novus Ordo Seclorum, \u201cmany, many connections between Freemasons in government, Freemasons in banking . . . operating and working together.\u201d\nYeah, I\u2019m sure you remember when Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck said that at the big Tea Party rally, right? Actually, no.\nDespite David Dayen\u2019s fantasy of Zeitgeist as a \u201cright-wing\u201d phenomenon, it\u2019s actually a bird of a quite different feather. What the influence of Jordan Maxwell and D.M. Murdock on Zeitgeist demonstrates is how much of what we call \u201cNew Age\u201d is actually just recycled Old Kookery \u2014 anti-Freemason stuff and Gerald Massey\u2019s faux-Egyptology.\nYet we will gladly take David Dayen\u2019s word that Zeitgeist was \u201cextremely important to shaping Loughner\u2019s worldview,\u201d and we\u2019ll take the word of the New York Times as to what effect that had on Loughner:\n\u201cHis anger would well up at the sight of\nPresident George W. Bush, or in discussing what he\nconsidered to be the nefarious designs of government.\u201d\nTone down the rhetoric, indeed!\nUPDATE: Michael J. Altman at Religious Dispatches discusses Zeitgeist and the \u201cmetaphysical esotericism\u201d of Maxwell\u2019s views:\nThe film\u2019s bright glimpses of a shared humanity are overcome by the dark narratives of conspiracy, manipulation, and control. The film\u2019s spirituality and its conspiracy rely on the same esoteric worldview, however. In such a view the world is full of special, secret knowledge\u2014about the meaning of the Bible, cabals of bankers, and the relationship between the Bush and Bin Laden families\u2014that is only available to a select few.\nBut in the end, the knowledge about conspiracies seem more powerful. It\u2019s more tempting, or maybe more pleasurable, to know the truth about wars fought to satiate elite bankers, religions invented to manipulate the masses, and tragedies staged for political power than to know the truth about a shared human essence. The conspiracy always feels more immanent than the spirituality.\nIt is a fear-based and fear-mongering movie. It is not the sort of movie you\u2019d want to show to a young man descending into paranoid schizophrenia.\nCategory: Arizona, Conspiracy Theories, Crime, Liberals, Zeitgeist",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Houston Ballet\u2019s \u201cQuixote\u201d Casts a Magic Spell\nExotic Taste of India for Local Youngsters \u2192\nJohn Cooper School Grad Helps Open New Theatre in New York City\nReaders may recall my enthusiasm for the talent of young actor, Eric Alba, in such John Cooper School productions as \u201cA Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream,\u201d \u201cThe Tavern,\u201d and \u201cA Chorus Line.\u201d In my 2004 review of Eric\u2019s performance as Paul in that latter production, I wrote of a \u201c\u2026remarkable poignancy that is most unusual in so young an actor,\u201d and then speculated further, \u201cI could easily picture this young man one day playing this very part on Broadway.\u201d He is a step closer now, as this son of Jorge and Lourdes Alba of The Woodlands has followed his dreams of a career in theatre to the nation\u2019s theatre capital, right here in New York City. Alba graduated from John Cooper in 2005 and was promptly selected for admission to the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts at New York University where he is now a second year student. Having recently made his New York stage debut with the Atlantic Theatre Company, Alba is now off on yet another theatrical adventure as Artistic Director of EBE Ensemble, a new theatre company he has co-founded with collaborators, John Prescod and Montgomery Sutton.\nAccepting Alba\u2019s invitation to attend the new company\u2019s Opening Night in Greenwich Village earlier this month was a bit of a trip down Memory Lane for me. It has been four decades since I was a young acting student living in \u201cthe Village\u201d myself. Returning to the area was (to steal the title of Denzel Washington\u2019s latest film) an experience of \u201cD\u00e9j\u00e0 Vu.\u201d The youthful energy of the neighborhood is exhilarating, and everyone seems to move quickly. That youthful energy would soon spill across the footlights of the modest little \u201cblack box\u201d basement theater known as Theatre Under St. Marks for the premier of EBE Ensemble\u2019s first production, \u201cElephants On Parade.\u201d\nMr. Alba beamed brightly as he stepped forward at curtain time to welcome the eager young audience of friends and fellow students that filled the small theater. The company website, http://www.EBEensemble.com , has the ambitious stated goal of encouraging \u201c\u2026the creation of contemporary classics from new voices.\u201d This evening of three original one-act plays may not go down as classic, but it did, at times, offer some thought-provoking theatre. The weakest link in this chain may have been the first play, \u201cMoonlight Gospel,\u201d written and directed by Mr. Sutton. Mike Ortiz plays Ben, a beer-drinking and angry young man that spews raging expletives at young Laura (Mikaela Feely-Lehmann), who has apparently dropped by his apartment to share her Christian faith, but may be looking for more. Character development is weak in this segment. Not only do we not really know why he is so angry or why she is so compelled to approach him, but also, worse than that, we have no reason to really care.\nThe second play, \u201cPig,\u201d written and directed by Mr. Prescod, was a disturbing one. It takes place in the squalid apartment of Faye (a smoldering Jennifer Messina), and her somewhat effete, would-be-performer of a son, Bobby (sensitively played by James Tison). Faye\u2019s unsavory jazz musician lover of the moment, Walter (Joe Mullen), has taken up residence at Faye\u2019s, along with his band mate, trumpet-playing Pab (Mr. Alba in a virtually dialogue-free role). Mullen\u2019s seductive performance is often compelling, and at its best reminds one a bit of the surly young Paul Newman in such films as \u201cSomebody Up There Likes Me,\u201d and \u201cCat on a Hot Tin roof.\u201d He gives us a Walter we love to hate: a man who exploits Faye\u2019s very attraction to him, while at the same time mistreating the timid Bobby who despises this intruder in his home. They all clash powerfully in a dramatic, booze-fueled final scene that is packed with tension, and more violence and cruelty than this viewer cares to see on the stage.\nThe final play, written and directed by Mr. Alba, was titled \u201cBird Lady.\u201d Its clever focus was centered on a lonely widow (Molly Thomas) in the big city. She finds her only joy in sitting on a bench to feed the pigeons: \u201cThey\u2019re my only family! They\u2019re all I have left!\u201d The drama unfolds when a bitter homeless man named Francis (Daniel Kemper) joins her on that bench. The Bird Lady annoys him with her cheerful chatter and devotion to the birds, and Francis launches into a four-letter-word tirade enumerating society\u2019s ills and injustices. Unperturbed, Bird Lady pleasantly continues the conversation until the lonely man looks skyward with Kemper\u2019s piercing eyes and opens up with, \u201cI\u2019m 53 and I had nothing until you came along and had the time to listen.\u201d In a touching moment that follows, Bird Lady asks the man his name, and it has been so long since he had any meaningful human interaction that he struggles before finally remembering, \u201cI\u2019m Francis. My name is Francis.\u201d That was a profound moment in this examination of the loneliness that can isolate one in a city of millions. Perhaps the play should have ended right there, for a moment later, in a violent twist, Francis starts to walk away, only to suddenly turn and shoot his new friend in the back of the head.\nSharing with me about his new life in New York, Alba reflected on The Woodlands as \u201c\u2026my favorite place that I have ever lived. The contrast between there and here in New York has been something that has inspired me to find a balance between the fast-paced, hard-working lifestyle of NYC, and the slowed-down, relaxed atmosphere of The Woodlands. My transition to NYC from The Woodlands is also a big reason for my play, \u2018Bird Lady\u2019.\u201d\nSo what can a critic offer to such a budding young company for future productions? I would simply suggest to wherever possible emphasize meaningful plot and character development over any excess of coarse language and violence. The nation is poised for a new generation of actors, writers and directors that will take us on a kinder, gentler journey in the wonderful world of theatre.",

        "raw_content": "Coral Gables office market sizzles with new construction and low vacancy rates\nCity has the most office space under construction in Miami-Dade\nIn Coral Gables\u2019 highly competitive office market, landlords are always seeking a slight edge in luring new tenants and retaining existing ones. But for the owners of Douglas Entrance at 800 Douglas Road, spending $7 million to renovate the office park\u2019s lobbies, corridors, elevators, indoor common areas and its historic \u201cLa Puerta del Sol\u201d ballroom wasn\u2019t enough, said Maggie Kurtz, a CBRE senior vice-president whose team handles leasing for the property.\nSo Banyan Street Capital and Oaktree Capital Management amped up Douglas Entrance\u2019s amenities by adding a fitness center, conference center, outdoor furniture and Wi-Fi access and a chauffered van that tenants can use to take them anywhere in the City Beautiful and Miami International Airport, Kurtz said. The two investment firms bought the complex in 2014 for nearly $101 million.\n\u201cThey can place a call to the management office and ask, \u2018I want to go to Miracle Mile to eat,'\u201d Kurtz said. \u201cThe chauffeur will pick them up, take them and bring them back when they are ready. The employees like it because they don\u2019t have to use their cars.\u201d\nThe repositioning of Douglas Entrance, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has led to a significant bump in the property\u2019s occupancy rate the last two years, Kurtz said. In that span, three tenants \u2014 DLD Lawyers, The Retail Outsource and INK Global Media, signed leases for a total of 33,000 square feet. The University of St. Augustine inked a deal for a 55,000-square-foot-space that is currently under construction. \u201cThe occupancy rate at Douglas Entrance is 85 percent,\u201d Kurtz said. \u201cBut we have a lot in the pipeline to get us to 92 percent in the next quarter.\u201d\nKurtz was among the featured speakers at a Coral Gables office market presentation hosted by the Commercial Industrial Association of South Florida. The event was held in a vacant office space in the north tower of Douglas Entrance. Dianna Parker, Kurtz\u2019s colleague and fellow CBRE senior vice president, told the two dozen attendees that Coral Gables has the most office space under construction in Miami-Dade County.\nAccording to a Colliers International report, Coral Gables has 487,257 square feet under construction. That\u2019s tops compared to the other 15 submarkets in the report, with the closest the Miami Airport market with 205,000 square feet.\n\u201cThat speaks volumes about the demand we have here,\u201d Parker said. \u201cThe market is so tight right now. Coral Gables has about a 7.5 percent vacancy rate and lease rates for Class A ranges between $40 to $48 a square foot.\u201d\nThose statistics are close to recent data published by brokerage firms. According to a 2018 first quarter Miami-Dade County office market report by Avison Young, the current overall vacancy rate in Coral Gables is 8.1 percent. Colliers International recently reported that Coral Gables has a vacancy rate of 7.7 percent with an average rental rate at $38.27.\nParker said multinational corporations pick Coral Gables because of the city\u2019s close proximity to Miami International Airport; two Metrorail stations and residential neighborhoods for its employees; its walkability and its abundance of restaurants and shops; and because there is not as much traffic congestion as in downtown Miami and Brickell.\nAnother existing office building that went through a rebranding and that is paying dividends is 2020 Ponce. Developed by Florida East Coast Realty, the 14-story tower recently signed Doctors Healthcare Plans Inc., which will move into the 12,700 square-foot penthouse that features a wrap-around terrace and 360-degree views.\n\u201cThe activity in the Coral Gables office market has been vibrant over the past six months with a significant amount of new leasing activity, especially ranging in size from 5,000 to 15,000 square feet,\u201d said Donna Abood, a principal and managing director of Avison Young who handles leasing for 2020 Ponce.\nTags: 2020 Ponce, Commercial Real Estate, coral gables, douglas entrance",

SILA NAZ ELGIN/THE VARSITY\nhttp://var.st/2sj\nNovember 10 marked the University of Toronto\u2019s 93rd Remembrance Day service organized by the Soldiers\u2019 Tower Committee. Held annually since Soldiers\u2019 Tower was built in 1924, the service pays tribute to the many Canadian servicepeople. This year\u2019s service recognized the 1,181 students and faculty members who sacrificed their lives fighting for freedom.\nIn attendance were members of the Soldiers\u2019 Tower Committee, religious leaders, university faculty members, student organizations, veterans, and active members of the Canadian Armed Forces.\nThe service commenced with a few words of welcome from Matthew Jurczak, chair of the Soldiers\u2019 Tower Committee, and a prayer from the chaplain, Major the Reverend Richard Ruggle.\nThe poem \u201cIn Flanders Fields\u201d was read by Major Jana Lok of the 25 Field Ambulance unit and the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing. The poem was written by University College alumnus Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae, who was a veteran of the South African War and died in 1918 while serving in the later years of World War I.\nFrancis Vivian Morton, also one of the many U of T men who enlisted during World War I, was recognized for his service in a statement read by Austin Cotton, President of Toronto\u2019s Theta Delta Chi Fraternity Chapter.\n\u201cIn March 1915, this small-town boy from Portage la Prairie, Manitoba cut short his studies at University College and enlisted with several other U of T men in the 25th Battery, Canadian Field Artillery,\u201d said Cotton.\n\u201cReaching France with the same unit in January 1916, [Morton] served continuously for nearly two years, through the battles of St. Eloi, Ypres, the Somme, Vimy Ridge, Fresnoy, and Hill 70. He was killed at Passchendaele while in charge of his gun, which was in action on the afternoon of November 10, 100 years ago today,\u201d continued Cotton.\nAlso recognized was the service of Jewish and First Nations people in the military via a memorial prayer led by Rabbi Julia Appel and a statement given by First Nations House Elder Andrew Wesley. Wesley recalled a story from his own father, who served in the First World War.\n\u201cThey were 40 young Omushkagowuk who enlisted for the First World War. They left their hunting ground [way of life], families, and community to travel to a foreign country they never heard of,\u201d he said. \u201cMany of them did not speak English and many did not return; for them this was a sacred thing to do.\u201d\nThe service concluded with the laying of wreaths and a playing of the \u201cLast Post,\u201d followed by a two-minute silence and a playing of the lament by a piper.\nThe Remembrance Day service at the university was one of many services held in the city. Others were held at the Ontario Veteran\u2019s Memorial in Queen\u2019s Park, and the cenotaph at Old City Hall.",

It has always been hard to tie myself down to who or what I am, because I am so many things. But I suppose I am like most women, a bit of everything. And of course, a citizen of the world and a lover of all the world.\nOk. I am female, I am middle-aged, but when I am in good spirits, I appear to be younger, if that matters (in the US it does matter). I think youngish, dress youthful, etc. But in other ways am so very old. I am torn between traditions and the modern world. I am torn between Europe and America. I am a part of the sandwich generation. That is, I am squished between a child and a parent, hence, sandwich generation. I struggle daily with life in the United States and all that it entails. I struggle with being a creative person having to deal with noncreative, so-called mundane things. I struggle with being a city girl in the suburbs because of cicumstances beyond my control. I struggle with being in a life where i don\u2019t really fit in or can make huge changes. I struggle with having to always do what I must do, having huge responsibilities instead of being carefree and selfish as in my youth. I struggle with aging and menapause. I struggle with a parent with dementia and a strong-willed child who has a mind of her own.\nI suppose I tend towards being a perfectionist, hence my immobility to move forward on some things that I think must be perfect and so, I tend to not start them. I have so many ideas and projects and I go off on tangents. I struggle daily with balancing all aspects of my daily life. Caring for loved ones. Caring for my home and vehicle. Staying healthy and helping keep my loved ones and my cats and things around me healthy too. Earning an income. Paying bills. Staying cultured somewhat. Dealing with the type A personalities of the PTA. Keeping the garden from becoming a jungle. Keeping things in working order. Keeping up with challenges that are thrown my way from different aspects of my life. These days I am also occupied with following the news in the world and the US campaign. And also trying to keep up with \u201cthe housewives\u201d reality tv.\nMaybe that is why I started this blog.

        "raw_content": "Feeling the (Kung) Fury\nQuite a while ago, in a place quite far north in Sweden, twenty-something FX artist David Sandberg quit his job, sold all his stuff and made an \u201980s-inspired B-movie packed with retro gadgets, dinosaurs and terrible acting\u2026 the result was Kung Fury, the most-watched Swedish trailer of all time and possibly the most awesome film ever made*\n(First published in N by Norwegian magazine, September 2015)\nThings weren\u2019t looking brilliant for David Sandberg a few years ago. \u201cI\u2019d sold my TV, I\u2019d sold my couch and I was living on 10 kronor tubes of bean soup. I was having fun, but my parents were a little nervous and my friends thought I\u2019d fallen off the face of the Earth.\u201d\nSandberg had quit his job as a visual effects artist and stopped doing commercials \u2013 all for a plan that sounded, well, a bit ridiculous. \u201cI wanted to make a movie inspired by Miami Vice and the \u201980s that had dinosaurs and robots and gadgets \u2013 a kid\u2019s dream, basically,\u201d he explains. \u201cIt started with me writing down cool words: I wrote down \u2018kung fu\u2019 and \u2018fury\u2019 and got to \u2018kung fury\u2019. I thought: I\u2019ve got an awesome title, I have to do something with this.\u201d\nHis main problems were as follows: he\u2019d never made a feature film before; he lived in Ume\u00e5, a town in a remote corner of northern Sweden; and he barely had a few thousand kronor to rub together. Avatar, this was not.\nFast-forward a few years, and last year the trailer for Kung Fury became the most-watched trailer ever for a Swedish film, with almost 13 million YouTube views. At press time, the half-hour version of the movie had been seen almost 20 million times, and Sandberg was a surprise hit at this year\u2019s Cannes Film Festival, with Variety magazine calling Kung Fury \u201cthe most awesome project in Cannes\u201d. If you go to Ume\u00e5 airport now, there\u2019s a huge sign that reads: \u201cKung Fury lives here.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s weird,\u201d admits Sandberg. \u201cIt was meant to be this little idea that I\u2019d put on the internet, but it\u2019s grown and grown. The response has been more than I ever could have imagined \u2013 it\u2019s all been a little overwhelming.\u201d\nTo describe the plot of Kung Fury is almost to miss the point. Sandberg himself plays a Miami cop in the \u201980s with extraordinary kung fu powers, who \u2013 after rejecting a buddy-cop partnership with a well-spoken triceratops \u2013 is sent back in time to kill Adolf Hitler, aka The Kung F\u00fchrer. With the help of Hackerman, he goes too far back in time, meets Thor, a T-Rex and some Viking babes (one played by Sandberg\u2019s real-life girlfriend, Eleni Young), finally gets to Nazi Germany and\u2026 well, you really just have to watch it.\nThe film is all bad acting, retro gadgets and nudge-wink \u201980s references, from Miami Vice to Back to the Future, MASK, He-Man and Mortal Kombat (anyone who recognises the words \u201cFinish him!\u201d will enjoy the Nazi fight scene). Aside from the outdoor Viking scenes, shot in northern Sweden, the action was shot against a green screen in Sandberg\u2019s tiny Ume\u00e5 studio, which stands in for \u201980s Miami and \u201940s Germany.\nThe brilliantly OTT effects were designed to mimic a slightly scratchy VHS version of an \u201980s B-movie. To cap it all off, David Hasselhoff not only appears in the film \u2013 he allegedly watched 15 seconds of the trailer before saying, \u201cI\u2019m in\u201d \u2013 but performed the movie\u2019s theme song, True Survivor, which has its own very naff video.\nThe whole film, and the story behind it, seem just a little bit too good to be true. \u201cI know,\u201d says Sandberg, \u201cit feels like that to me, too.\u201d\nSandberg, who was born in Kiruna but moved to Ume\u00e5 aged three months, first got into visual effects at 16, when he says he bought a \u201cmanual thicker than the Bible and taught myself 3D animation. The aim initially was really just to get good enough at animation that I could put a T-Rex in something.\u201d\nBy 19, he scored his first job as an animator and was directing music videos and commercials by his early twenties. \u201cI was doing FX and commercials with the aim of eventually becoming a feature film director,\u201d he says. \u201cThat was always the dream, but after a while I realised it wasn\u2019t going to just happen. To become a feature film director, I realised I had to direct a feature film.\u201d\nSo, just over three years ago, he quit everything and put US$5,000 (NOK41,100)of his own savings into the idea that would become Kung Fury. \u201cIt was a tough sell to get anyone involved,\u201d he remembers. \u201cAt the time, I was obsessed with [Swedish \u201980s synth musician] Mitch Murder, and thought that he needed to do the soundtrack, which included writing a song for David Hasselhoff. I emailed Mitch, heard nothing for two weeks and was totally bummed out. But then he emailed: it was his dream to make a song for the Hoff, and he was in. It was the start.\u201d\nSandberg coerced many of his friends to help out, including his girlfriend, who plays two characters, and a bunch of friends from Ume\u00e5, many working for free. He realised he had the acting ability to play the lead \u2013 \u201cMostly it\u2019s just moving your jaw and looking concerned,\u201d he says \u2013 though casting Thor was more of a challenge.\n\u201cWe needed someone really ripped, but with a beard, which was surprisingly hard to find,\u201d recalls Sandberg. \u201cMost the bodybuilders are totally hairless. Eventually I saw a guy on Reddit, Andreas Cahling, and was like: that\u2019s him! He\u2019s a Swede living in San Diego, and flying him over was by far the biggest expense we\u2019d had.\u201d\nAs Sandberg gradually ran out of money (\u201cWe struggled to even afford the police uniform in the trailer\u201d), he was desperately searching for funding. \u201cI\u2019d go to film institutes and other bodies with moodboards and sketches, but it was quite hard to keep saying, \u2018Imagine there\u2019s a T-Rex standing there.\u2019 At least one potential backer told me I was crazy.\u201d\nWith funds all but gone, Sandberg got enough footage together to put a two-minute trailer on Kickstarter in late 2013. Despite the fact that he\u2019d done the effects virtually all by himself, it became a viral sensation, and he smashed his target of US$200,000 (NOK1.6m) to raise more than US$630,000. As many as 14,000 people wrote wanting to collaborate, and Jorma Taccone of American comedy trio The Lonely Island volunteered to play Hitler.\nCrucially, it allowed Sandberg to get help with the effects, including hiring Swedish visual effects studio Fido, who would spend 12,000 man hours helping Sandberg to create a 30-minute version of Kung Fury.\n\u201cWithout Kickstarter, we wouldn\u2019t have got past the trailer,\u201d Sandberg says. \u201cThe film is totally a product of the internet. I definitely couldn\u2019t have done this five years ago.\u201d\nBy the standard of any movie involving special effects, though, it was still a tiny budget \u2013 and if anything things just got stranger. \u201cThere were all these random people coming up to Ume\u00e5, and we were like kids playing in a sandbox, just trying out all these crazy ideas. Like, for the scene where Kung Fury fights all the Nazis, I\u2019d planned to do the fighting myself and CGI my legs to make it more impressive. But it looked ridiculous, so I had to hire a body double who could actually do kung fu.\n\u201cLooking back, it was madness, but we kept going because it was so much fun. A lot of people involved said it was the best time they\u2019d ever had doing a film \u2013 it was movie magic!\u201d\nSo, with a 30-minute version online, what\u2019s next? He\u2019s developing a feature film script with US producers David Katzenberg and Seth Grahame-Smith of KatzSmith Productions. It will be a new idea that will have different characters but keep the \u201980s nostalgia and humour of the original idea. \u201cIt\u2019s really exciting,\u201d says Sandberg. \u201cThey\u2019re just as obsessed with all things \u201980s, and they totally get it.\u201d\nBeyond that, Sandberg isn\u2019t ruling out becoming a \u201cnormal\u201d film-maker. \u201cKickstarter made this project, but it was an exhausting process \u2013 I don\u2019t want to make every film I do like that, and I don\u2019t want to just be the guy who always does \u201980s homages.\u201d\nAs for now, he\u2019s just happy with the rash decision he made. \u201cIt was a lot of bean soup, more hard work and more overwhelming than I ever could have expected\u2026 but yes, it was worth it. It\u2019s been fun.\u201d",

Alexis Rivera doubled the advantage with an RBI single. In the third inning, Kengor smashed his 13th homer of the season over the left field wall, a solo shot, for a 3-0 lead. In the fifth, Ridge Hoopii-Haslam hit a solo homerun then LJ Kalawaia drove in two with a single, tying the game at three.\nBoth teams needed the international tie-breaker to pick up the offense for the duration. In the top of the ninth, Manny Cruz drove in a run on a sacrifice fly, but in the bottom, with Alexis Rivera on at second, Ryan Kemp drove him home with a double, sending the game to the 10th. In the bottom of the inning, with Kemp at second, he moved to third on a wild pitch then scored the winner on a walk-off RBI single by Isaac Benard.\nMatt Williams picked up the win, hurling the last three innings in relief. He allowed an unearned run on no hits and an intentional walk, and struck out one to move his record to 5-2. Keegan Long suffers the loss as he was in during the 10th, giving up the RBI hit. He falls to 2-5.\nIn game two, and with one out in the second, Alec Olund and Ryan Kemp reached on back-to-back walks. With Olund on third thanks to an error, Ryan Kemp attempted to steal second, as he did, Olund scored to give the Bums a 1-0 lead. From there the bats went silent, but not quite for Joliet. Ridge Hoopii-Haslam tied the game in the third on a single then gave the Slammers the lead on a two-run hit in the fifth.\nAndrew Zellner earned the win in relief for Joliet. He went four and two-thirds innings and walked one, giving up no hits, improving his record to 3-2. Luke Devenney went five innings in the loss, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks. He falls to 1-5 on the season. With tonight\u2019s split, the Beach Bums take the season series against Joliet, seven games to five.\nComing up on Friday, the Beach Bums will host the Windy City Thunderbolt in the opening game of the final series of the 2018 season. On the mound for Windy City will be Jake Welch and the Beach Bums will counter with Tyler Thornton. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05pm and you can join the voice of the Beach Bums, Tom Willms, the Frontier League's 2018 Broadcaster of the year, at 6:45 for the Budweiser Pre-Game Show.

The Dunlop name has been massive in Northern Ireland in general, and sadly we've taken our fair share of hits.\n\u201cI thought we'd suffered our torture for our lifetime, but sadly [not]. That's the way of the sport, William was one of the better ones really. He was quiet, he just went about his business.\n\u201cSadly two little daughters [he leaves behind]. Mine and William's relationship on track was really an on and off thing with the press, with questions against each other all the time.\n\u201cBut off track we had a great bond, and I carry that bond now to look after his two young girls.\n\u201cIt's such a shame that it's come to this, that in our sport \u2013 or with my family anyway \u2013 that whenever one of us passes away the awards come, and sadly William's not here to pick it up.\n\u201cBut we were never really in it for the fame or the glory, and to get this award tonight, I'll hold my head up not for the award, but more for being William's brother.\u201d\nPhoto by: Isle of Man TT\nDunlop unsure of his racing future\nDunlop became the third most successful rider in TT history in 2018 when he tallied up his 18th victory, with his Superbike win coming just days after the death of Tyco BMW team-mate Dan Kneen.\nBut he has not races since his brother's accident last July, and admits he does not give \u201cmuch thought\u201d to his career at present.\n\u201cI haven't sat on a bike since William's accident,\u201d he added.\n\u201cIt's one of those years, it's been tough. Myself, I've become the third most successful person at the TT, and then for that to give us a slap straight after, it's going to be hard to try and keep functioning.\n\u201cI think tonight, the bikes are not my problem and nobody cares what I think. Tonight is all about William, it's more of a celebration, it's not about my career and where I'm going to.\n\u201cI don't really give much thought to my career at this moment.\u201d\nMotorsport.com's Top 20 motorcycle racers of 2018, Part 2\nDunlop confirms Isle of Man TT return despite recent tragedies\nDrivers Michael Dunlop , William Dunlop\nAuthor Lewis Duncan\nHillier stays with Bournemouth Kawasaki for 2019 TT\nHutchinson, Johnson to lead Honda's TT assault",

So industrial-inspired interiors or \"fake\" 1800s bistros, which have been so popular, particularly in restaurant and cafe design for the past decade, don't make a lot of sense to him, he says.\nDesigner and IDS Vancouver keynote speaker Karim Rashid. Photo: Lupe de la Vallina for The Home Front: Designing for the now by Rebecca Keillor [PNG Merlin Archive]\tPNG\nEgyptian-born, Canadian-raised and New York-based, industrial designer Karim Rashid is all about designing for the present. So industrial-inspired interiors or \u201cfake\u201d 1800s bistros, which have been so popular, particularly in restaurant and cafe design for the past decade, don\u2019t make a lot of sense to him.\n\u201cThis turn-of-the-century industrial esthetic, distressed leather, books on shelves, this language is just a ridiculous trend,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s decorating, not designing, and it has nothing to do with the time in which we live.\u201d\nRashid is the keynote speaker on the Caesarstone stage Sunday at the Interior Design Show (IDS) Vancouver, held at the Vancouver Convention Centre West. His Ottawa sofa series collection, created in collaboration with BoConcept will also be on display at the show.\nGood design, says Rashid, should honestly reflect the times we live in and break away from the nostalgia of looking back to times that most of us didn\u2019t live in.\n\u201cIf I have a smart phone in my pocket, and I have phenomenal running shoes that I can customize on the Nike website, or I play tennis and my racket is made using the most amazing technology possible, or my car is made with the latest technology possible, then why isn\u2019t the restaurant I go to like that?\u201d he asks. \u201cOr why isn\u2019t the couch I sit on at home like that? Why isn\u2019t the physical world moving as fast as this digital age or at least trying to stay parallel with it?\u201d\nRashid has over \u201c3,000 designs in production\u201d, including luxury goods for the likes of Alessi and Verve Clicquot, furniture for Vondom, lighting for Artemide, high-tech products for Samsung, and interiors for high-end restaurants and hotels around the globe. Prolific is a word often used to describe his output and expansive is another one, designing everything from physical goods to exhibitions and brand-identity campaigns.\n\u201cI always try and do something original every time\u201d he says, \u201cbut then I\u2019m also aware we\u2019re sort of saturating the world with commodities and I design physical things, so if I\u2019m going to design something physical, there needs to be a sense of advancement.\u201d\nAdvancement, says Rashid, could be a better method of doing something \u2014 a new technology or production process or using a new material.\n\u201cIt could be a new social behaviour,\u201d he says. \u201cI watch the way people behave now versus 20 years ago, and that can inform your design. I think about the software and tools I use and the software is allowing me to do things I could never have done historically.\u201d\nAs well as allowing for more expansiveness in design, says Rashid, the digital age is also making the world smaller and \u201cmore homogenous\u201d, he says.\n\u201cWhen I\u2019m on an airplane,\u201d he says, \u201clet\u2019s say Singapore Air, and I look at the magazine in front of me and they\u2019re selling some new, slick, glass condominium, it\u2019s amazing how that condominium and the rendering in the corner of the living room of one of the model suites could be anywhere in the world, and looks the same all over the world.\n\u201cIt could be Toronto, it could be Vancouver, it could be Tel Aviv, it could be Cairo, it could be Moscow, and the digital age is doing this because we\u2019re all taking on these trends, seeing the same information, seeing the same imagery, and we\u2019re basically copying because there\u2019s not enough of us that are being rigorous enough to be original.\u201d\nThe job of architects and designers, says Rashid, is to not fall into this trap and focus on creating something new.\n\u201cWe\u2019re all original,\u201d he says. \u201cSo let\u2019s do original things.\u201d\nRashid will be speaking at IDS Vancouver on Sunday at 3 p.m. and talking about design in the digital age, the importance of avoiding nostalgia, creating new objects and ways of doing things.

        "raw_content": "Barry Diller: Disney\u2019s Streaming Service Won\u2019t Beat Netflix\nDisney\u2019s decision to start its own streaming service makes sense, said IAC chairman and former studio exec Barry Diller during a keynote conversation at the Internet Association\u2019s Virtuous Circle Summit Monday morning. However, the Mouse shouldn\u2019t expect to ever catch up to Netflix. \u201cThe network effect is so huge,\u201d he said.\nDiller reiterated his view that big tech companies like Google, Apple, and Netflix are virtually unstoppable. \u201cI do not think these large companies will be interrupted in their growth,\u201d Diller said. \u201cEvery year, they take more share rather than lose share.\u201d\nAs part of that growth, it would be natural for companies like Amazon to buy more and more media content, and even bid for sports rights. However, Diller argued that the Amazons and Googles of the world won\u2019t buy studios or other legacy media companies any time soon: \u201cI don\u2019t think they need to, really.\u201d\nDiller did agree that there was a danger in the big tech companies getting too big without regulatory oversight. \u201cThey are going to get larger. Regulation has to follow, or should follow,\u201d he said. One of the areas that could use more regulation is ad targeting and the possibility to abuse it for political purposes, he argued.\nThe big tech companies also have a huge impact on Diller\u2019s own business, who revealed Monday that Expedia and IAC together spend about $3.5 billion a year on advertising. \u201c80% of it goes to Google.\u201d Still, he argued that it wasn\u2019t necessary to put a stop to these companies\u2019 growth: \u201cI don\u2019t think they should be broken up.\u201d\nDiller, who decades ago led Paramount and Fox, on Monday also opined on the future of the movie business. With Netflix and Amazon increasingly investing in movies, the traditional release windows would ultimately collapse. Theaters would continue to exist for communal experiences, but most consumers would watch new releases from the comfort of their own couch in the near future, he said: \u201cThe vast majority is going to be day-and-day, in your home.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "March 25, 2016 /in Blog, Cloud /by Vision Computer Solutions\nBusinesses have a lot of data that they need to access on a daily basis. However, where this data is stored can have a dramatic effect on your organization\u2019s productivity. Whether it\u2019s stored in the cloud, locally on your in-house server, or in a safe and secure data center, you need to know where your data is stored, and what purpose it holds for your business.\nFor example, storing your data locally has several benefits, but only if it\u2019s done in an efficient manner. The same can be said for storing your data in a cloud; while it has valuable uses, this is only if you\u2019re taking the correct approach to cloud computing.\nWhen to Store Data Locally\nMany organizations will host their own data infrastructures in their internal network. This means that workstations that have access to the network will be able to access the information stored within. However, this also means that your workstations need to be physically connected to the server. This complicated cabling and networking can be cumbersome, but it also provides a relatively quick connection to your business\u2019s internal data. Storing your data locally in-house allows you to implement security solutions that are designed to prevent threats from accessing your data, which is crucial for any small business.\nWhen to Store Data in the Cloud\nA better question to ask would be, \u201cwhen is it not okay to store data in the cloud?\u201d The cloud is one of the best ways you can deploy data to your entire organization without physically connecting all of your system\u2019s workstations to a central data-holding server. With the cloud, any information stored can be shared and deployed via an Internet connection, allowing anyone with the correct permissions to view it. If you have data that needs to be accessed by many employees, then the cloud is the ideal way to store your data.\nDepending on the cloud solution you implement, you\u2019ll have varied control over the security and deployment of your data. Businesses that relish this control will want a private cloud that\u2019s either hosted in-house or through a managed service provider, while organizations that don\u2019t need comprehensive control will appreciate the functionality of the public cloud.\nWhen to Store Data Off-Site\nOff-site data storage is effective for a number of reasons. For one, off-site data storage is similar in nature to the cloud; your data is there, and it\u2019s available when you need it most. It\u2019s helpful to store backups of your data infrastructure in off-site data centers so that you can take advantage of them in the event of a data loss disaster, like a natural disaster or hacking incident.\nThere\u2019s a reason that so many great solutions rely on the cloud, and it\u2019s because it allows for near instantaneous access to your business\u2019s data. In particular, this is important for your data backup system. When you face a data loss disaster, you need to take quick action to ensure that you minimize downtime. With a backup and disaster recovery (BDR) solution from Vision Computer Solutions, your data is immediately deployed to the BDR, which temporarily takes the place of your server in the event of a hardware failure or crippling disaster. This kind of convenience isn\u2019t available without storing your data off site.\nFor more information about data storage, the cloud, and BDR, give Vision Computer Solutions a call at 1.248.349.6115.\nTip of the Week: Access Windows 10 Safe Mode for PC Troubleshooting Tip of the Week: Handy Keyboard Shortcuts and Other Google Drive Tips",

        "title": "Best Residential Painting Near Me Thorp | Top Local Painters",
        "raw_content": "Best Residential Painting Near Me Thorp\nDo you own a Thorp home that has not been painted in several years? Perhaps you would like to improve its outward appearance. You might be selling your house, and you need to enhance the curbside appeal, motivating people to consider purchasing your home. You may also have a need for a painting contractor that can paint the interior of your home as well. It may have been decades since the last time that the inside of your home was painted, and you simply do not have time to do this on your own. If you are interested in finding quality Thorp painting contractors, ones that can do both interior and exterior painting jobs, here are the best ways to locate painting contractors near me that will provide you with the best services at a better than average cost.\nThe first place that you should start searching for Thorp painting contractors that can paint your home is on the web. Most of the professionals that offer this service in communities will have a website showcasing what they are able to do. They will have examples of homes they have painted recently, both interior and exterior jobs. This will give you a general idea of the type of work they are able to do. Second, you can also see how much they charge for the services if it is posted, and if not, there will always be contact information. You can then contact these businesses by phone, or by email, to get a quote or estimate on how much it will cost for the painting job that you need them to accomplish.\nOnce you have found several Thorp painting contractors near me, you will need to evaluate them. The first step is getting an estimate. These professionals will send a representative of their company out to your location. They can take measurements, and then provide you with a quote on how much it will cost to paint either the interior or exterior of your home. The second step is to consider the reputation of these contractors. You may have family members or friends that have recently used one of these professionals. If they were very happy with the final result, as well as the price, these are top candidates for your business. The other way to evaluate these companies is to find information about them on the web. You could begin with the Better Business Bureau. You will also see reviews and comments about local businesses on the Internet, comments made by actual customers that will state whether they were happy with, or dissatisfied with, the work that was provided. This information can prove invaluable as you are trying to make your final choice.\nThere are a few other things to consider before hiring one of these Thorp local painting contractors. First, you need to consider when they are able to start. If you need to have this done in the next few weeks, and they cannot start for a couple months, these are the companies that you will not want to consider at all. You should also consider what type of painting jobs they are willing to do. Some of them only do the exterior of homes. Others may only do interior painting jobs. If you need to have them do both, this will limit your choices even more, helping you to make the right choice when choosing one of these contractors.\nThere are a couple different ways that you can search for and find Thorp painting contractors that will provide you with affordable rates on painting your house. They might be advertising in the local paper, providing their services at a discount for those that are willing to work with them in the near future. Once they have their quota of clients, the special will be gone, so you need to act as quickly as possible if you see these businesses offering discount services. Another way is to work with a business that will give you a discount because you are having them paint both the interior and exterior of your home. These companies are often motivated to provide substantial discounts for those that allow them to do both jobs.\nThe final choice that you make is one that you will know is the right choice because this company will have four favorable factors. First of all, they will offer discounted prices for the painting jobs that they will do for you. Second, they will have longevity in the community, perhaps providing their painting services for many years or decades. Third, they will be able to do both interior and exterior painting on your home, preventing you from having to search for yet another company. Finally, they will be willing to work around your schedule so that you can have your home painted when you want to have this done. All four of these factors are indications that you will have chosen the right Thorp company for the job.\nThere are likely many painting contractors near me that you will be able to use. In a large city, there could be several, prompting you to do a substantial amount of research. Even if there are only two or three in your smaller community, there will be one that will stand out. You will have chosen one of the best and most affordable residential painting contractors in my area, providing you with an estimate on the cost per square foot that will likely be below the average for the typical cost of these projects. Now that you know how to get the best deals from local Thorp painting contractors, you should start requesting estimates today. In no time at all, you will have the interior or exterior of your home painted, or even both, by these professional painting contractors near me that can help you out.\nAuthor wpenginePosted on September 28, 2017 September 28, 2017 Categories Painters WisconsinTags Average Cost To Paint A Room in Thorp, Cost To Paint Exterior Of House in Thorp, Cost To Paint Interior Of House in Thorp, Exterior Painting Contractor in Thorp, House Painting Estimate in Thorp, House Painting Quotes in Thorp, How Much To Paint A House in Thorp, Interior Painting Cost in Thorp, Interior Painting Cost Per Sq Ft in Thorp, Interior Painting Estimate in Thorp, Painting Cost Per Square Foot in Thorp",

        "raw_content": "\u201cHey Wasabi, What\u2019s up with Your Name?\u201d\nWith over 4,000 paying customers and 4,000 more in trials in just our first 18 months of business, it\u2019s clear that the word is out on Wasabi\u2026 and spreading fast. As the ambassador of our brand, I\u2019m often asked about our name and its origin. People absolutely love the name Wasabi. Of course I\u2019m hoping that\u2019s the case because they\u2019re blown away by our incredible cloud storage offering, but I also know that people love that spicy green horseradish too, myself included.\nI thought I\u2019d take this opportunity to tell you about our name, its origin and the industry movement that our hot cloud storage has ignited. Wasabi was originally called BlueArchive while we were in \u201cstealth mode,\u201d a name based on our CEO\u2019s favorite color and our technology, which would transform the data archiving market. Seemed pretty straightforward and simple. But the more I learned about our technology and our ability to revolutionize storage performance and pricing, the more I thought that something this disruptive deserves a unconventional and memorable name, kind of like our frenemies at Amazon and Google. And that\u2019s where the fun begins, because if you\u2019ve never played the name game and tried to secure a domain, well you\u2019ve never lived (or died over and over again). I came up with over 200 names over the course of four weeks, narrowing it down to three finalists, Raging Data (i.e. seize control of your data), Aura Storage (i.e. all data has a certain mystique and aura) and finally, Wasabi.\nAs background info, our company was developing a new cloud storage platform that promised to make traditional cloud storage as fast and responsive as data that resides on your computer. We had developed a single platform that would collapse all the ugly tiers and pricing models of cloud storage into a single, simple and inexpensive solution. We were in fact delivering the equivalent of what the industry called \u201chot data.\u201d According to one industry definition, hot data \u201cis data that needs to be accessed frequently. It is typically business-critical information that needs to be accessed quickly and is often used by a company for quick decision making.\u201d Well, with our unique ability to store and retrieve data at least 6x faster than the market leader, we were certainly delivering on the promise of \u201chot data.\u201d And therein lies the birth of a disruptive new industry category called \u201chot storage,\u201d or in our case \u201chot cloud storage.\u201d\nWith an opportunity to create a new market category firmly within our grasp, the pressure grew to capture the essence of heat in our name. We needed a name that could be universally recognized and understood around the world because we knew the company\u2019s global potential and impact was huge. I was pretty certain that if someone were asked their reaction to the word Wasabi, they would respond with the word \u201chot\u201d most times. And, as they say, the rest is history, or as I like to think, history in the making.\nOver the coming days and months we launched not only the name, but also the most disruptive cloud storage platform to hit the market in over a decade, transforming the industry and igniting the world\u2019s rapid adoption of cloud storage. As a name, Wasabi has become a bit of a viral hit on its own. Everyone is always asking for a piece of Wasabi swag (my kids call it merch and tell me I\u2019m not cool). We came out of the gate with disruptive technology and an attitude. We\u2019re passionate about commoditizing cloud storage and making it a common utility like electricity, serving as the foundation to your organization\u2019s most precious asset and weapon\u2026 data.\nThere\u2019s a classic Marilyn Monroe and Tony Curtis movie called \u201cSome Like it Hot.\u201d It\u2019s one of my favorite throwbacks. At Wasabi we\u2019re on a mission to make sure everyone likes it hot.",

        "raw_content": "Home Everything you ever wanted to know about the Taco circulation pump\nTaco pumps? Sounds like a food-eating contest victory move. It does create circulation\u2026of your hot water!\nOne of the questions we get a lot here at Water Heaters Only, Inc. concerns hot water wait times. People don\u2019t want to wait forever for their shower to get hot. Not only that, but with the drought here in California, these long wait times mean the water is wasted, literally going down the drain.\nAccording to the Department of Energy, the average household wastes roughly 12,000 gallons of water per year waiting for the shower to get hot. These long wait times often occur in the bathrooms that are the furthest from the water heater. But there is a cure these \u201cwaiting for hot water\u201d ills and the cure often is a circulation pump.\nWHAT IS A CIRCULATION PUMP?\nBasically, circulation pumps distribute water throughout the home in a much quicker way than those without one. In the case of a circulation pump for a water heater, the pump circulates the hot water so that it is readily available throughout the home. The pump can be placed at the water heater or in the bathroom that is furthest from the water heater. In most cases, the pump needs to have its own dedicated plumbing line. That\u2019s because it is circulating hot water and if it didn\u2019t have its own line, hot or warm water would be in the cold water line as well. Using a dedicated line just for the circulation pump, the hot water is ready and the cold water in your plumbing remains cold.\nIf your home does not have a dedicated return line, there are solutions for that as well (see LET\u2019S TALK TACO below).\nThe most common circulation pump is constantly running as it needs to keep the hot water moving through the pipes. However, there are different solutions to that problem including putting the circulation pump on a timer so that it works when there is a heavy demand for hot water such as in the mornings when most people will take a shower.\nThere are also so-called \u201con demand\u201d type circulation pumps. These are often turned on by the homeowner pushing a button, which then starts the hot water flowing through the pipes. Some are even controlled by a remote, allowing you to lie in bed and simply push the button on the remote and have hot water when you get out of bed and are ready to take a shower.\nLET\u2019S TALK TACO\nSo which is the best brand? We don\u2019t take sides here at Water Heaters Only, Inc. but we, in general, we really like the Taco (pronounced Tay-koh, for the record) brand of circulation pumps.\nTaco offers a wide range of pumps that work in many more households than before. If you would like more information about Taco, just go to their website here: https://www.taco-hvac.com/\nOne of the newer products being offered by Taco is called the Hot-Link. It\u2019s an easy retrofit pump that is basically installed at the fixture where the hot water is really needed, such as a back bathroom. The Hot-Link is mounted under the sink between the hot and cold pipes. It then connects the two pipes thus allowing your existing plumbing to be used. This helps avoid having to install a dedicated return line. When hot water is needed, the Hot-Link system valve opens and the hot water is drawn through the plumbing, but instead of the cold lines being filled with hot water, the Hot Link system actually cools down the hot water. This also allows the hot water lines to remain hot.\nFind out more about the Taco Hot-Link system here: https://www.taco-hvac.com/products/systems/instant_hot_water/hotlink/index.html\nWHEN YOU\u2019RE READY TO TALK CIRCULATION PUMPS\nSo, now you\u2019re interested in getting a circulation pump.

        "raw_content": "Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures/Columbia Pictures/EON Productions\nIf we\u2019re lucky, every few years we\u2019re treated to a will-they-or-won\u2019t-they love story that sparks our imagination and warms our hearts. Ross and Rachel from Friends. Jim and Pam from The Office. Daniel and Barbara from Bond 25. Yes, these are classic, iconic love stories, where two people who are destined to be together must nevertheless fight through a series of unfortunate events before going public with their mutual love and affection. Which is all a complicated and jokey way of saying, c\u2019mon, Daniel Craig and Barbara Broccoli, we know y\u2019all are going to make Bond 25 happen, so just do it already!\nOf course, Friends only ran for 10 seasons, and it feels like we\u2019ve been doing this Craig and Broccoli song-and-dance for the better part of our lives, but it seems that Craig has finally decided to re-up for one more Bond movie. According to a new report in The Mirror (via Yahoo! Movies) - which, yeah, I know, The Mirror - Broccoli has finally convinced Craig to return, and even managed to convince Adele to come back to sing the theme song. Here\u2019s what the website had to say:\nDaniel Craig has changed his mind and is set to sign up for his fifth Bond movie \u2013 with Adele lined up to join him. The actor, 48, claimed he would \u201crather slash my wrists\u201d than play 007 again but his U-turn came after a host of British stars were tipped to replace him\u2026 But Bond producer Barbara Broccoli is said to have secured Craig \u2013 and we can reveal she is \u201cdetermined\u201d that superstar singer Adele will record the theme tune.\nWell, that\u2019s a lot to take in! While nothing is official until Craig himself says he\u2019s coming back - we\u2019ve been hearing for months now that he was this close to signing on the dotted line - it\u2019s not a surprise that Craig\u2019s change of heart comes after a little bit of distance between the publicity and the press junkets associated with the Bond movies. If I were in his shoes, I\u2019d much rather have a chance to go out on my terms than spend an entire year of my life fielding questions I don\u2019t know the answer to. Give Craig his official farewell tour, make some progress on his replacement for Bond 26, and everyone wins! We\u2019ll see if this becomes official sometime in the next few days (or weeks), but this could finally be some gosh-danged closure for this ongoing saga.\nA New Report Says Daniel Craig Back Could Be Back as James Bond After All\nSource: Rumor Has It Daniel Craig (and Adele!)

Instead, the usual issues facing these clients aren\u2019t related to their sexual interests at all, but the sex-negative bias of some psychotherapists gets in the way of effective therapy.\nKink positive therapists turn their attention away from pathologizing and towards and appreciation nontraditional sexual practices and communities.

        "raw_content": "Home Advertising Cenveo, facing crushing debt and internet challenges, files for bankruptcy reorganization\nCenveo, facing crushing debt and internet challenges, files for bankruptcy reorganization\nCenveo Inc., one of the largest printing businesses in the world, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, citing $1 billion in debt and internet challenges that have wrecked its business model.\n\u201cNegative industry trends\u201d and an \u201cunsustainable capital structure,\u201d according to an affidavit by Ayman Zameli, executive vice president, compelled the company to file for bankruptcy.\nBut Brigade Capital Management LP, a creditor, has asked the court for an independent examiner to investigate \u201cpotential misconduct.\u201d\nCenveo and 35 affiliates filed bankruptcy petitions on Feb. 2 in White Plains, where the Commercial Envelope Manufacturing subsidiary has an office. The company is based in Stamford.\nCenveo declared assets of $790 million and liabilities of $1.4 billion. The largest secured claims are held by Bank of New York Mellon, $831 million, and Bank of America, $125.6 million.\nThe company\u2019s price per share has declined by 99.8 percent in 10 years, from $120.32 to less than 20 cents on Feb. 13.\nCenveo had grown into a large, diversified printing company, booking nearly $1.6 billion in revenue last year, according to a bankruptcy filing.\nIt traces its roots back to an envelope manufacturer that was founded in Colorado in 1919. The company changed its name to Cenveo in 2004, from Mail-Well.\nBurton Capital Management and its principal, Robert G. Burton Sr. of Greenwich, acquired the company in a hostile takeover in 2005.\nCenveo\u2019s main product line is envelopes, and it manufactures 50 billion a year for direct mail campaigns, bills and wholesale customers.\nIt is the nation\u2019s fourth-largest commercial printer, producing catalogs, annual reports, brochures, comic books, magazines, specialty books and scholarly publications.\nIt makes cash register receipt rolls and labels for packaging and pharmaceuticals.\nCenveo has 40 manufacturing plants and offices in the United States. It employs 5,200 people in the United States and another 1,380 abroad.\nFrom 2006 to 2013, Zameli said, the company acquired 16 companies. But in recent years it has been divesting, closing plants and consolidating operations.\nDespite attempts to rightsize \u201cthe negative effects of the third and fourth quarter of 2017,\u201d he said, \u201coutweighed any cost savings.\u201d\nThe company blames its troubles on e-commerce, digital subscriptions and other technologies that are transforming the industry.\nAs advertisers shift to electronic media, envelopes for mail campaigns are in less demand. Lower magazine circulation has depressed printing revenue. In general, Zameli said, there is less need for paper products.\nLong-standing customers have scaled back purchases and sourced some of their supplies from other manufacturers, as Cenveo\u2019s financing has weakened, and they have imposed more onerous trade terms.\nLate last year, Cenveo began exploring its options, hiring Kirkland & Ellis for legal advice, Rothschild Inc. for investment banking and Zolfo Cooper for restructuring advice.\nCenveo negotiated a restructuring agreement with \u201cfirst lien\u201d creditors holding $540 million and with Brigade Capital, the largest holder of second lien notes.\nMajor creditors agreed to cut debt by about $700 million, according to a Reuters report. The first lien lenders will receive nearly all of the equity in the reorganized company and new debt, if bankruptcy court approves the plan. Unsecured lenders will receive about 2.5 percent of what they are owed.\nThe company has secured $290 million in debtor-in-possession financing to help it through the bankruptcy process.\nThe plan will stabilize the company, Zameli said, and allow it to emerge from bankruptcy.\nBrigade, which holds $248 million in first and second lien notes, did not agree to the plan.\nThree family members received about $80 million in compensation from 2005 to 2016, \u201can extraordinary amount,\u201d Brigade said, \u201cfor a company of this size and in this industry.\u201d\nRobert G. Burton Sr., CEO, is chairman of the board. Robert G. Burton Jr., president, is on the board. Michael Burton is chief operating officer.\nThe Burtons and a family trust hold about 15 percent of the common stock.\nBrigade claims that Cenveo has leased a manufacturing facility and land with an entity owned and managed by the Burton family.\nTwo of the board\u2019s purportedly independent directors, Brigade alleges, may not be truly independent.\nSusan Herbst, for instance, is president of the University of Connecticut, to which the Burtons have donated millions of dollars, including, Brigade said, money for construction of the Burton Family Football Complex.\nThat $2.5 million donation, however, was given in 2004 and Herbst became president in 2011.\nMark J. Griffin, another company director, is founding headmaster of Eagle Hill School in Greenwich, to which the Burtons, Brigade sids, have donated money for housing and athletic facilities.\nCenveo did not respond to a request for comment on Brigade\u2019s allegations.\nBrigade has asked for a court hearing to consider the appointment of an examiner.\nAyman Zameli\nBrigade Capital Managment\nRobert G.

        "raw_content": "These two cover songs were recorded in then bassist Ron McGovney\u2019s garage, during rehearsals that took place in March 1982. On the strength of this demo tape Metallica were booked to open for NWOBHM band Saxon on March 27, 1982 at the Los Angeles club Whisky A Go-Go. [1]\nThis demo tape was also recorded in McGovney's garage during March 1982. Although the demo has never been officially released, it has been in wide circulation in various bootleg versions. Apart from the songs listed below, two other tracks recorded during different sessions, consisting of songwriting ideas and various unreleased riffs, have also been widely bootlegged. One track consist of riffs and ideas that would later go on to become both Metallica and Megadeth songs, it is commonly titled as \"Jam\". While the other track is a melodic piece played by James and Ron, widely known on YouTube as, \"Unreleased Kill 'Em All song\". The validity of these two tracks was confirmed by McGovney, during a 1996 interview with Shock Waves and also via the Metallicabb forum. [1] [2]\nPower Metal was the name given to a demo recorded sometime in April 1982. Although the demo was never officially released, it was given the bootleg name \"Power Metal\" after the tagline McGovney had printed on Metallica's first business cards. The tape contained four original songs, including two new songs, \"The Mechanix\", written by Dave Mustaine, and \"Motorbreath\", written by James Hetfield. It was also, like all previous demos, recorded in McGovney's garage. [3]\n\"The Mechanix\" was the original version of \"The Four Horsemen\" which later appeared on Metallica's 1983 debut album Kill 'Em All . Mustaine also included a reworked version of the song, simply titled \"Mechanix\", on Megadeth's 1985 debut album, Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! .\nNo Life 'Til Leather was recorded on July 6, 1982. It is Metallica's most widely circulated demo tape. All of the tracks are early recordings of songs that would later appear on the band's debut album Kill 'Em All. The track listing on Kill 'Em All is the same as that on the demo tape, with the exceptions of Cliff Burton's bass solo \"(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth\", \"Whiplash\", \"No Remorse\" and \"The Four Horsemen\" (See notes above). The title of the demo comes from the first line of \"Hit the Lights\". [3]\nThe demo has been re-released twice unofficially, first under the title of Metallica: Bay Area Thrashers, and was alleged to be a live bootleg recording of Metallica in the early days, however all \"live\" sounds had been added from various sources including the Metallica video Cliff 'Em All . This was soon discovered by Metallica and all copies were removed from stores. The demo was re-released a second time under the title Metallica: In the Beginning... Live, containing no apparent differences from Metallica: Bay Area Thrashers.\nIn March 2015, Metallica announced that they will be releasing 'No Life 'Til Leather' on limited-edition cassette for Record Store Day. [4]\nAs Lars Ulrich told to Rolling Stone magazine: \"It's time for us to put out some next-level reissues and do the song and dance of the catalog that everyone else has done; the U2s and the Led Zeppelins and the Oasises [...] Instead of starting with Kill 'Em All in 1983, we figured we'd go back another two years to when the band was formed in 1981.\". [5]\nBoth the name and album cover of the demo were to be reused for the band's debut studio album, now called Kill 'Em All . However, Metallica's record company would not allow it. [6]\nThe Megaforce demo was recorded on March 16, 1983 and was the band's last demo release recorded with Dave Mustaine. [1] The tape was recorded with the intention of introducing Burton to potential record labels and earned the band a contract with Megaforce Records. It was also played live on KUSF FM in San Francisco. The demo contained two new songs which had not been previously released. It has received a number of names including the Megaforce demo (due to it earning a contract with Megaforce), The KUSF Demo (due to it being played on KUSF FM) and Whiplash/No Remorse Demo.\nThe Ride the Lightning demo was recorded on October 29, 1983. It was the group's first demo recording to feature lead guitarist Kirk Hammett. The demo contained the original material Metallica had written that was not released on Kill 'Em All. Both \"Ride the Lightning\" and \"When Hell Freezes Over\" (later renamed \"The Call of Ktulu\") were co-written by Dave Mustaine. \"Fight Fire with Fire\" and \"Ride the Lightning\" had been changed from their original versions due to input from Cliff Burton. All four songs appeared on the band's second studio album Ride the Lightning . The four demos for Ride the Lightning were recorded at the expense of Metallica's European record label, Music for Nations, at the same time the band recorded versions of \"Seek & Destroy\" and \"Phantom Lord\" to be used as fake \"live\" b-sides for the \"Whiplash\" and \"Jump in the Fire\" singles. [1] In 2005 seven other re-recorded demos surfaced on bootlegs. Out of the seven demos that surfaced, only \"Trapped Under Ice\" was confirmed as an official demo.\nMetallica's ninth studio album, Death Magnetic , had all its songs released as demos, recorded between November 2005 and January 2007. The demos were included on a bonus disc titled Demo Magnetic, released with a different \"experience\" version of Death Magnetic. The track listing order remained the same, however the track list uses the working titles instead of the final titles. All music was written by Metallica, while all lyrics were written by James Hetfield. It is the group's first demo album to feature Robert Trujillo on bass.\n1 2 MetallicaWorld.co.uk demos\n\u2191 \"Metallica celebrate Record Store Day with limited-edition tape\". Never Enough Notes.

Hero.\nThose of you who read my twitter or blip stream (thanks to Iain for pointing the latter out, it\u2019s great) will know I\u2019ve been on my hollybobs for a little while.\nBut, in addition to brushing up on my Hemingway (Moveable Feast is a great read \u2013 should really have a butchers at some more of his work; not quite sure why I haven\u2019t yet), I\u2019ve done a classic plannerly thing.\nYes, that\u2019s right, not being content with the typical holiday reading, I thought I might try my hand at some of the more planner-centric texts which are doing the rounds at the moment. The first was me finally reading Nassim Nicholas Taleb\u2019s \u2018Black Swan\u2019. I can understand why so many planners and people within comms are so fascinated by it; for someone (who was a former head of deratives/a very talented mathematician/philosopher \u2013 a polymath in the true sense of the word) to come out and criticise how much we think we know, and how, in his terms, \u2018Platonicity\u2019, is a mistake.\nEssentially, through a series of case studies, Taleb dismisses the idea that the world is so straightforward, so easily quantifiable as we\u2019d like it to be, and this blinds us from ever considering extreme random acts (the Popper inspired \u2018Black Swans\u2019). It\u2019s very interesting, and I liked the bits about fractals (images which appear solid, but when looked at closely, are actually entirely different) and his belief in Benoit Mandelbrot to show the way \u2013 have a look at this:\nAnd as to how this relates to the planning day job (or indeed, how both of them do). Well, bluntly, both argue for more emotional appeals to people, as their emotions (and subsequent randomness) are commonplace. Far more than all the people in all the groups in all the brands you\u2019ll ever work on. We should be producing work that stirs people into thinking with their heads and their hearts at the same time (because it\u2019s what they do).\nSo yes, bloody useful (if complicated) fodder for the day job. If you\u2019re in the least bit interested in what makes people tick (and can stand the self-righteousness of Taleb), read \u2019em both.

        "title": "FEATURE: Five Actors Who Should Be Considered to Play Green Arrow in the DC Extended Universe - WOBAM Entertainment",
        "raw_content": "FEATURE: Five Actors Who Should Be Considered to Play Green Arrow in the DC Extended Universe\nIn recent years, Green Arrow has become a more prominent character in the mainsteam DC Universe. The CW\u2019s television adaptation Arrow has been a hit, Oliver Queen became a fan-favorite in previous shows such as Justice League Unlimited and Smallville. Meanwhile, in the comics, Green Arrow was a member of the Justice League of America, and writer Jeff Lemire\u2019s run on the character received critical acclaim.\nWith this franchise at its highest point right now, it would be surprising if Warner Bros. did not cash in on that with a Green Arrow movie, especially after the unproduced Escape From Supermax script from a few years ago. Sure, the studio may wait until Arrow finishes its run, but if they can have both a Flash movie and a Flash television series going on at the same time, then why not Green Arrow? Plus, Oliver Queen has plenty of potential for the big screen, as a DCEU version can tap into elements of the character that Arrow has not touched yet.\nBelow, I\u2019ve listed five actors who should be considered for the role of Green Arrow in the DC Extended Universe. Spoiler: there is no Charlie Hunnam on this list.\n#5 \u2013 Liam Hemsworth\nIt is a bit surprising that Liam Hemsworth has yet to play a superhero. He auditioned to play Marvel\u2019s Thor \u2013 a part which, of course, was later won by his brother Chris \u2013 while he is currently wrapping his multi-film role in The Hunger Games saga. Like his more popular brother, Liam is handsome, likable and a decent actor. He would be an ideal choice to land a comic book movie role, and one of these could be Green Arrow.\nAt 25, as of this writing, Hemsworth would be very age appropriate if Warner went with a younger Oliver Queen; think a Green Arrow: Year One-esque scenario. It would also play a role in Liam headlining his own superhero franchise, while Chris is starring in the Thor series. And with Marvel doing so well having a Hemsworth in its universe, perhaps WB may want to try to cast the younger brother for the DCEU.\nLiam would do a good job playing the charismatic, celebrity Oliver Queen. And he has enough action chops to embrace the Green Arrow persona, making him a solid choice to add to the studio\u2019s shortlist.\n#4 \u2013 Dan Stevens\nFormer Downton Abbey alum Dan Stevens is currently on the move as an up-and-coming actor in Hollywood. Following his acclaimed performance in The Guest, Stevens will co-star in Disney\u2019s live action Beauty and the Beast adaptation, which will surely be a big hit at the box office. It is only a matter of time before Stevens is cast in a comic book movie role, and Green Arrow is a pretty great idea, in my opinion.\nStevens did an outstanding job with his performance in The Guest. There were essentially two sides to his character. On the one, we have the initial charismatic, likable guy who is easy to root for. On the other hand, he is a psychopathic serial killer who is absolutely terrifying. Stevens was wonderful in both sides of the role, and he could do an equally great job playing the two different sides to Oliver Queen (the beloved celebrity) and Green Arrow (the questionable vigilante).\nNot to mention, physically, Stevens is an ideal fit for Queen. While he can play all kinds of villainous characters in the DCEU \u2013 Reverse-Flash, Red Hood, etc. \u2013 it would be great to see him take on a heroic character such as Green Arrow. And, again, the actor is a rising star in Hollywood, so Warner Bros. would do well taking advantage of that by casting him in a key DC movie role.\n#3 \u2013 Alexander Skarsgard\nSkarsgard is another fine actor who has yet to join a comic book franchise. Like Liam Hemsworth, he was in the running to play Thor before Chris Hemsworth was cast. Subsequently, that franchise also features Alexander\u2019s father, Stellan Skarsgard, in a supporting role. Meanwhile, Alexander has appeared in tentpoles such as Battleship and The Giver, and he will star as Tarzan in Warner\u2019s 2016 film. Assuming that the latter is a success, WB may want to reteam with Skarsgard on a DCEU film. Why not Green Arrow?\nSkarsgard has the blonde, rugged good looks that are perfect for Oliver Queen. Also, the actor is 38 right now, and he will be somewhere in his 40s \u2013 at the earliest \u2013 by the time they bring Green Arrow to the big screen. So, he would be a great choice for an older, more seasoned Ollie. And he has some experience with action movies, making him more qualified for this role.\n#2 \u2013 Ewan McGregor\nEwan McGregor had been my top choice to play Green Arrow for years. He is a terrific actor, he has plenty of franchise experience after playing Star Wars\u2018 Obi-Wan Kenobi, and he rocks a goatee wonderfully. (Just look at that image above and tell me that it doesn\u2019t scream Oliver Queen.) Also, at 44, he would be a flawless pick for a seasoned Arrow who has been battling crime in Star City for many years.\nHowever, while McGregor\u2019s age could be a blessing, it could also be a bit of a curse. At this age, the actor may not be interested in committing to a multi-film contract that a role such as Green Arrow would require. Of course, that didn\u2019t stop 43-year-old Ben Affleck from signing on to play Batman in at least five movies. So, this could easily be worked out if McGregor is a fan of the character and/or scripts.\nAlso, McGregor doesn\u2019t have a busy schedule for the foreseeable future. His only tentpole is Disney\u2019s Beauty and the Beast in 2017, while there are persistent rumors of him returning as Obi-Wan in at least one more Star Wars movie. So, he could easily fit a role like Green Arrow into his schedule. And quite frankly, he would do an amazing job portraying this character.\n#1 \u2013 Garrett Hedlund\nFinally, we have my personal top choice for the role of Green Arrow \u2013 although, this may be tied with Ewan McGregor. Garrett Hedlund has franchise experience after Eragon and Tron: Legacy, while he appears in the Warner tentpole Pan later this year. He also had a memorable performance in Unbroken. Hedlund is a great actor who should get his hands on a superhero role. And he would be a very ideal fit for Green Arrow.\nAt 30, Hedlund is at a perfect age to play Oliver Queen. Not too young or inexperienced, but not too old or seasoned. He is likable enough to play the celebrity persona of Queen, while he has the chops to play the Emerald Archer side of the character. Also, his beard looks exactly how I\u2019d picture a Green Arrow goatee to look in live action.\nAs a bonus, Hedlund has a clear schedule after 2016, so he can easily make room for a big comic book movie role such as this. Ultimately, the actor is an excellent pick to play Oliver Queen in the DC Extended Universe. Fingers crossed that he, along with the other actors on this list, would at least be considered for this role.\nHonorable Mentions: Matt Damon, Josh Holloway, Jake Gyllenhaal, Leonardo DiCaprio\nWhich actor would you like to see play Green Arrow in the DC Extended Universe?\nNew Promos for Second Seasons of THE FLASH and GOTHAM Released",

        "raw_content": "Behind the House the Ground Has Opened Up\nStory Sent in by Verna:\nI fielded dating site emails from all sorts of losers until Gerald sent me a message. He was astonishingly polite and was able to write cohesive sentences. Maybe it was just that he was the one-eyed man in the land of the blind, but I didn't see any red flags in the beginning and so we kept up a correspondence.\nAfter a bit he asked me out to lunch and gave me an address. I asked him if it was a restaurant and he said it was that of an amazing deli.\nWhen I pulled up to the address he had given me, I found it was a house. I called him to ask if I had the right place and he said I did. \"Come on out back,\" he encouraged me.\nWhen I found him in the backyard, he was digging a hole. And when I say it was a hole, I mean it was deeper than he was tall, and he was close to six feet. He was in torn jeans, no shirt, and was sweatier than any sweaty man I had ever before beheld.\nHe pointed to another shovel nearby. \"Grab it,\" he said, \"Help me out.\"\n\"No,\" I replied, \"We doing lunch?\"\nHe laughed. \"When we're done digging.\"\n\"Why are you digging?\"\n\"We're playing a trick on my friend. Come on. Grab the shovel.\"\nI asked him, \"This isn't your house?\"\n\"No. Grab the shovel. It'll be faster with two. Then I'll take you to the deli.\"\nI was in date attire, but I figured that the sooner we were done there, the sooner we'd do lunch. I didn't put forth much digging effort at all, and he was evidently displeased with the quality of my work and ultimately asked me to be lookout.\n\"Why are we digging a hole?\" I asked him.\nHe didn't answer but climbed out and said, \"I'll finish myself later. Let's have lunch.\"\nHe toweled himself down and threw on a shirt. We walked to a nearby deli and he bought us sandwiches. When we sat down I asked him what the deal was with the hole.\nHe said, \"I'm playing a trick on my friend. It's his house. I'm going to put a blanket over it and spikes on the bottom.\" He nearly choked with laughter on his Sprite after he said that. It was around this time that I thought I'd be better off as far away from Gerald as possible.\nOnce I was done with the sandwich, he asked me if I was ready to go back and help him some more. But I turned him down and went home. He must have sensed my disillusionment because he never called me again, which was a good thing. As for his \"friend,\" I have no idea if he wound up in the backyard pit or not.\nNow, if I was meeting someone for the first time, and I came upon them digging a six foot deep hole and they asked me to help, my first thought would be \"I am not going to help dig my own grave.\" But you just went with it so you could get some lunch. Yeah, I get that. I mean, what could go wrong?\nhttp://youtu.be/ytWz0qVvBZ0\nWell..She was pretty strong on referring to all the others she breezed thru, as losers, so she may have been desperate by this point? I would have thought the same thing as above, excusing myself to go grab something that will be just perfect to help. Then run for the hills, and be completely ecstatic for knowing I defeated death just one more day!\nLa Marchlewski 2/03/2015 7:12 PM\nThank you JMG - I really enjoyed that !\nA date is a good place to recruit a digging buddy. Even if it was just a joke.",

        "raw_content": "Mary Shelley; Bram Stoker; Robert Louis Stevenson Frankenstein, Dracula, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde\nFrankenstein, Dracula, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde\nMary Shelley; Bram Stoker; Robert Louis Stevenson\nEditeur : Signet, 1978\nBook by Shelley Mary Stoker Bram Stevenson Robert Louis\n(Kept in shorthand.)\n3 May. Bistritz.1\u2013Left Munich at 8:35 p. m., on 1st May, arriving at Vienna early next morning; should have arrived at 6:46, but train was an hour late. Buda-Pesth seems a wonderful place, from the glimpse which I got of it from the train and the little I could walk through the streets. I feared to go very far from the station, as we arrived late and would start as near the correct time as possible. The impression I had was that we were leaving the West and entering the East; the most western of splendid bridges over the Danube,2 which is here of noble width and depth, took us among the traditions of Turkish rule.\nWe left in pretty good time, and came after nightfall to Klausenburgh.3 Here I stopped for the night at the Hotel Royale. I had for dinner, or rather supper, a chicken done up some way with red pepper, which was very good but thirsty. (Mem., get recipe for Mina.) I asked the waiter, and he said it was called \u201cpaprika hendl,\u201d and that, as it was a national dish, I should be able to get it anywhere along the Carpathians.4 I found my smattering of German very useful here; indeed, I don\u2019t know how I should be able to get on without it.\nHaving had some time at my disposal when in London, I had visited the British Museum,5 and made search among the books and maps in the library regarding Transylvania: it had struck me that some foreknowledge of the country could hardly fail to have some importance in dealing with a nobleman of that country. I find that the district he named is in the extreme east of the country, just on the borders of three states, Transylvania, Moldavia and Bukovina,6 in the midst of the Carpathian mountains; one of the wildest and least known portions of Europe. I was not able to light on any map or work giving the exact locality of the Castle Dracula, as there are no maps of this country as yet to compare with our own Ordnance Survey maps;7 but I found that Bistritz, the post town named by Count Dracula, is a fairly well-known place. I shall enter here some of my notes, as they may refresh my memory when I talk over my travels with Mina.\nIn the population of Transylvania there are four distinct nationalities: Saxons in the South, and mixed with them the Wallachs, who are the descendants of the Dacians; Magyars in the West, and Szekelys8 in the East and North. I am going among the latter, who claim to be descended from Attila and the Huns. This may be so, for when the Magyars conquered the country in the eleventh century they found the Huns settled in it. I read that every known superstition in the world is gathered into the horseshoe of the Carpathians, as if it were the centre of some sort of imaginative whirlpool; if so my stay may be very interesting. (Mem., I must ask the Count all about them.)\nI did not sleep well, though my bed was comfortable enough, for I had all sorts of queer dreams. There was a dog howling all night under my window, which may have had something to do with it; or it may have been the paprika, for I had to drink up all the water in my carafe, and was still thirsty. Towards morning I slept and was wakened by the continuous knocking at my door, so I guess I must have been sleeping soundly then. I had for breakfast more paprika, and a sort of porridge of maize flour which they said was \u201cmamaliga,\u201d and egg-plant stuffed with forcemeat, a very excellent dish, which they call \u201cimpletata.\u201d (Mem., get recipe for this also.) I had to hurry breakfast, for the train started a little before eight, or rather it ought to have done so, for after rushing to the station at 7:30 I had to sit in the carriage for more than an hour before we began to move. It seems to me that the further east you go the more unpunctual are the trains. What ought they to be in China?\nAll day long we seemed to dawdle through a country which was full of beauty of every kind. Sometimes we saw little towns or castles on the top of steep hills such as we see in old missals; sometimes we ran by rivers and streams which seemed from the wide stony margin on each side of them to be subject to great floods. It takes a lot of water, and running strong, to sweep the outside edge of a river clear. At every station there were groups of people, sometimes crowds, and in all sorts of attire. Some of them were just like the peasants at home or those I saw coming through France and Germany, with short jackets and round hats and home-made trousers; but others were very picturesque. The women looked pretty, except when you got near them, but they were very clumsy about the waist. They had all full white sleeves of some kind or other, and the most of them had big belts with a lot of strips of something fluttering from them like the dresses in a ballet, but of course there were petticoats under them. The strangest figures we saw were the Slovaks, who were more barbarian than the rest, with their big cow-boy hats, great baggy dirty-white trousers, white linen shirts, and enormous heavy leather belts, nearly a foot wide, all studded over with brass nails. They wore high boots, with their trousers tucked into them, and had long black hair and heavy black moustaches. They are very picturesque, but do not look prepossessing. On the stage they would be set down at once as some old Oriental band of brigands. They are, however, I am told, very harmless and rather wanting in natural self-assertion.\nIt was on the dark side of twilight when we got to Bistritz, which is a very interesting old place. Being practically on the frontier\u2013for the Borgo Pass leads from it into Bukovina\u2013it has had a very stormy existence, and it certainly shows marks of it. Fifty years ago a series of great fires took place, which made terrible havoc on five separate occasions. At the very beginning of the seventeenth century it underwent a siege of three weeks and lost 13,000 people, the casualties of war proper being assisted by famine and disease.\nCount Dracula had directed me to go to the Golden Krone Hotel, which I found, to my great delight, to be thoroughly old-fashioned, for of course I wanted to see all I could of the ways of the country. I was evidently expected, for when I got near the door I faced a cheery-looking elderly woman in the usual peasant dress\u2013white undergarment with long double apron, front, and back, of coloured stuff fitting almost too tight for modesty. When I came close she bowed and said, \u201cThe Herr Englishman?\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d I said, \u201cJonathan Harker.\u201d She smiled, and gave some message to an elderly man in white shirtsleeves, who had followed her to the door. He went, but immediately returned with a letter:\u2013\n\u201cMy Friend.\u2013Welcome to the Carpathians. I am anxiously expecting you. Sleep well to-night. At three tomorrow the diligence9 will start for Bukovina; a place on it is kept for you. At the Borgo Pass my carriage will await you and will bring you to me. I trust that your journey from London has been a happy one, and that you will enjoy your stay in my beautiful land.\nBorn in London, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-51) was the daughter of William Godwin, a noted social theorist, and Mary Wollstonecraft, one of the leading literary women of the day. Her mother died soon after her birth, and Mary was raised first under the care of servants, then by a stepmother, and finally in the rarefied intellectual atmosphere of her father\u2019s circle. In May 1814, she met Percy Bysshe Shelley and, in July of the year, moved with him to the Continent. Two years later, after the death of Shelley\u2019s wife, the poet and Mary were able to wed. It was in Switzerland in 1816, as a result of a story-writing competition among the Shelleys and Lord Byron, that Mary began Frankenstein, her first and most famous novel. Published in 1818, it was followed by such works as Valperga (1823), The Last Man (1826), and Falkner (1837). In 1822, after the death of her husband, she devoted herself to the upbringing of her son and the securing of his right to the Shelley family title.\nBram Stoker (1847-1912) was born in Dublin. After attending Dublin University, he spent ten years as an Irish civil servant, trying to keep up his writing in his free time. By 1871, he had become the drama critic for the Dublin Mail and had gained experience as a newspaper editor, reporter, and short story writer. In 1878 he became the personal assistant to Sir Henry Irving, the foremost Shakespearean actor of his day, accompanying him on tours and managing Irving\u2019s theater. After Irving\u2019s death in 1905, Stoker worked on the literary staff of the London Telegraph. Dracula, his most famous work, was published in 1897.\nThroughout his life, Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was plagued by ill health, which interrupted his formal education at Edinburgh University. Pursuing the life of a bohemian during his twenties and thirties, he traveled around Europe and formed the basis of his first two books, An Inland Journey (1878) and Travels with a Donkey (1879). Stevenson gained his first popular success with Treasure Island (1883). The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, which sold forty thousand copies in six months, and Kidnapped appeared in 1886, followed by The Black Arrow (1888) and The Master of Ballantrae (1889). In 1888, he set out with his family for the South Seas, traveling to the leper colony at Molokai, and finally settling in Samoa, where he died.\nStephen King is the author of more than fifty books, all of them worldwide bestsellers. He is the recipient of the 2014 National Medal of Arts and the 2003 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. He lives in Bangor, Maine, with his wife, novelist Tabitha King.\n1. Frankenstein; Dracula; Dr Jekyll and MR Hyde\n2.

Paperback. Etat : New. Language: English. Brand new Book. Three horror icons come together in one indispensable tome--with an introduction by Stephen King. \"Within the pages of this volume you will come upon three of the darkest creations of English nineteenth-century literature; three of the darkest in all of English and American literature, many would say.and not without justification.These three creatures, presented together for the first time, all have a great deal in common beyond their power to go on frightening generation after generation of readers.but that fact alone should be considered before all others.\"--From the Introduction by Stephen King A scientist oversteps the bounds of conscience and brings to life a tortured creation. A young adventurer succumbs to the night world of a diabolic count. A man of medicine explores his darker side only to fall prey to it. They are legendary tales that have held readers spellbound for more than a century. The titles alone--Frankenstein, Dracula, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde--have become part of a universal language that serves to put a monster's face on the good-and-evil duality of our very human nature. And the authors--Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker, and Robert Louis Stevenson--equally as mythic, are still possessed of an inventive and subversive power that can shake a reader to this day with something far more profound than fear. They gave root to the modern horror novel, and like the creatures they invented, they've achieved immortality. N\u00b0 de r\u00e9f. du vendeur AAS9780451523631",

        "raw_content": "House General Aviation Caucus Hits Record High with Bipartisan Support\nOn Friday, Sept. 20, U.S. House General Aviation Caucus Co-Chairs Sam Graves (R-Mo.) and John Barrow (D-Ga.) announced that, for the first time in its history, more than half the House of Representatives had joined the group. The current tally stands at 223 members. The purpose of the House General Aviation Caucus is to inform members and staff about the importance of general aviation to the national economy and transportation system.\n\u201cCrossing the 218 mark is a great victory for general aviation,\u201d Graves said. \u201cEducation is key to our efforts to highlight the everyday concerns of America\u2019s pilots, so having the majority of the House participating in the caucus is important. General aviation carries 166 million passengers to around 5,000 communities over 27 million flight hours each year, and more than two-thirds of these flights are for business purposes.\u201d\n\u201cGeneral aviation plays an important role in Georgia\u2019s economy and across the country,\u201d Barrow said. \u201cThis is an important milestone for the industry. Our mission is to inform folks about general aviation, and having a majority of the House of Representatives will help achieve that goal. This is the largest, most bipartisan caucus in Congress, and I\u2019m honored to join with my colleagues to continue to advocate for this industry.\u201d\nThe Aircraft Electronics Association praised the accomplishment.\n\u201cThe Aircraft Electronics Association is pleased to see the roster for the General Aviation Caucus continue to grow,\u201d said Paula Derks, president of the AEA. \u201cThis bipartisan caucus indicates that Congress not only supports the value of the general aviation industry, but also understands the significant impact this industry contributes to the nation\u2019s overall economy.\u201d\nGeneral Aviation is a catch-all category that includes all non-scheduled, non-military aviation. There are more than 223,000 active general aviation aircraft in the U.S., which serve nearly 19,000 small and regional airports \u2013 many more than the 500 commercial airports in the U.S. These airports help connect people and industries that do not always have easy access to commercial airports.\nThe general aviation industry employs nearly 1.3 million workers and contributes more than $150 billion to the U.S. economy annually. In 2009, U.S. general aviation airplane manufacturers delivered 1,587 airplanes worth $9.1 billion with more than 50 percent of total billings tied to exports. In fact, the general aviation industry is one of the few remaining U.S. manufacturing industries that provides a trade surplus for the U.S.\nFor a complete list of the House General Aviation Caucus members, visit http://www.aea.net/governmentaffairs/gacacusmembers.asp.",

        "raw_content": "Alexander Gray Associates: Melvin Edwards\nOpening Reception for Melvin Edwards exhibition\n\u201cThe use of African words as titles of my sculpture is to extend the practical and philosophical values of the large quantity of esthetic possibility in art for now and the future.\u201d \u2013\u2013Melvin Edwards\nAlexander Gray Associates presented an exhibition of work by Melvin Edwards reflecting his engagement with and influence of Africa. Edwards\u2019 first visits coincided with a key moment in the region\u2019s history as recently independent countries defined their postcolonial national identities. Since his first trip in 1970 to Ghana, Togo, Dahomey (now the Republic of Benin), and Nigeria, Edwards has consistently traveled to Africa, often returning to Nigeria and Ghana and making repeated trips to Senegal and Zimbabwe. He eventually established a studio in Dakar, Senegal in 2000. His experience of and engagement with this region and its traditional and contemporary art scene has nurtured Edwards\u2019 investigations of metalwork and its formal qualities, abstraction, history, language, exchanges between cultures, and the significance of personal relationships.\nThe central work in the exhibition was Homage to the Poet Leon Gontran Damas (1978\u201381), a monumental installation shown for the first time since Edwards\u2019 retrospective at the Neuberger Museum of Art in Purchase, NY in 1993. This work consists of several large-scale metal geometric sculptural elements and a long piece of chain organized in relation to each other to create an environment that encourages gathering and meditation; collective consciousness and contemplation. Grounded to the horizontal plain of the Gallery\u2019s floor, the installation was oriented using the sun as a compass in order to face East, looking towards Africa. He conceived the work to honor Damas, a co-founder of Negritude, active in anti-colonial politics, and a poet whose style creatively eschewed the standardized French of the former colony and embraced influences from Harlem jazz to Caribbean calypso. Edwards met Damas in 1969 through the poet, activist, and performance artist Jayne Cortez, Edwards\u2019 late wife and artistic collaborator, with whom he traveled extensively throughout Africa and across the world.\nMelvin Edwards\u2019 use of materials, primarily the result of his formal and aesthetic concerns, unfold multiple meanings as they relate to African and African Diasporan cultures and histories, represented in the exhibition in a selection of Lynch Fragments and wall-sculptures. Returning from a trip to Nigeria in 1973, Edwards began incorporating machetes as a formal and symbolic element as in the disc Kasangadila: For Francisco Rom\u00e3o de Oliveira e Silva (2004), made in homage to his friend Francisco Rom\u00e3o, a prominent politician and key figure in the Angolan War of Independence (1961\u201374). Edwards recognizes the utilitarian function of machetes in West Africa, describing them as \u201canother shape of steel that already exists.\u201d At the same time, these objects stand as embodiments of civil uprisings, which speak to Edwards\u2019 life-long engagement with social movements. The Lynch Fragment Ginau Tabaski (2006), created entirely out of Senegalese objects, including the grid-like base sourced from local metal workshops, refers to the Islamic Senegalese holy day Tabaski. Edwards sees Tabaski, which involves feasting with family and friends, as \u201ca day where human beings come to grips with mortality, and with the importance of sacrifice in order to accomplish a sense of fulfillment in life.\u201d For Edwards, Ginau Tabaski is a summation of life, death, and looking towards the future.\nEdwards\u2019 works also speak to a broad network of creative minds including African artists, writers, and craftsmen, with whom he has developed personal relationships throughout many decades. Edwards titled his Lynch Fragment Ibadan Oke (1992) in homage to his visits to Nigeria during the 1970s. The urban landscape of the Yoruba city of Ibadan stimulated Edwards\u2019 interests in architecture and urban design, which were also greatly encouraged through his close friendship with Nigerian artist and architect Demas Nwoko. He met and worked with many others in the city, including the Nigerian Nobel Prize-winning playwright and poet Wole Soyinka, and the Jamaican writer Lindsay Barrett. The Fragment Djeri Djeff Papa Tall (2008) references the phrase \u201cdjeri djeff\u201d or \u201cthank you\u201d in Wolof\u2014a widely-spoken language in Senegal\u2014as well as Papa Ibra Tall, a seminal Senegalese modern artist, founder of the influential tapestry workshop Manufactures s\u00e9negalaises de arts d\u00e9coratifs (MSAD). Tall and Edwards met in Senegal in 1999, and later collaborated when Edwards produced two tapestries in MSAD.",

Photo: Yossi Zamir/Flash 90.\nJNS.org \u2013 Two senior Israeli defense officials warned of Iranian intentions in Lebanon and Syria, providing a harsh reality for Israel in the wake of US President Donald Trump\u2019s withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal.\nMaj.-Gen. (Res.) Amos Gilead, who until recently served as director of policy and political-military affairs at Israel\u2019s Defense Ministry, warns that Iran is exploiting a major vacuum in the Middle East.\nSpeaking at the Annual Herzliya Conference, which takes place from May 8-10, Gilead addressed the recent surge in tensions between Israel and Iran in Syria\u2014prior to Iran\u2019s lobbing some 20 rockets at the Golan Heights from Syria on Wednesday night\u2014stating that Iran is now seeking to add Syria to \u201cHezbollahstan, which is an entity in Lebanon that is stronger than Lebanon itself.\u201d\n\u201cHezbollahstan has 120,000 rockets pointed at Israel. To this, the Iranians want to add missiles. To this, they want to add Syria,\u201d he said. \u201cIf Israel does not stop this, we will be surrounded by two fronts . . . Iran\u2019s goal is to build an empire stretching to the Mediterranean Sea. It is working for them.\u201d\nTehran\u2019s determination to retaliate against reported Israeli strikes on Iranian military assets in Syria is part of a bigger attempt to dictate \u201cnew rules of the game\u201d to Israel, he said, adding that Israel must reject those rules and act to defend itself.\n\u201cThe Iranians are determined to destroy Israel\u2019s existence,\u201d Gilead stated, adding, \u201cHistory repeats itself. Ideological, extremist regimes sworn to wiping out the Jews\u2014they mean what they say. Iran is the only threat that can turn existential,\u201d he said, if nuclear weapons are combined with Iran\u2019s radical ideology.\u201d\n\u2018Why are we satisfied\u2019 Iran deal was cancelled?\nGilead similarly blasted the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, describing it as \u201cone of the worst agreements in the world.\u201d\nBut,\u201d he added, \u201cyou need an alternative for everything.\u201d\nGilead is one of a select few former senior Israeli defense figures to openly challenge the decision by US President Donald Trump to cancel the Iranian nuclear deal, in opposition to the unequivocal position held by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who backs Trump.\nHe assessed that Iran will stay in the agreement for now, and that it will be joined by Russia and China, \u201ctwo great powers,\u201d as well as France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, which he said \u201cwill all be against the US.\nThat means that the US will be isolated.\u201d\nIn the next stage, warned Gilead, Iran will feel free to return to the nuclear path, while declaring \u201cwith characteristic fraudulence that they respect the agreement. The US is isolated, and the world will support Iran. The Iranians will have the freedom to develop nuclear weapons. That is very bad news. I think this is the wrong decision.\u201d\nGilead, who spent three decades serving in the Israeli defense establishment in various influential intelligence and military roles, said he \u201cdoes not see the US attacking Iran if the Iranians develop nuclear weapons. And I don\u2019t see the cunning Iranians developing nuclear weapons right now. They can wait for five years. Iran is a civilization with a history of thousands of years. They have time.\u201d\nAs a result, he continued, the Iranians can reactivate their nuclear program a little further down the road. Under such a scenario, Israel could easily find itself having to deal with that crisis largely on its own.\n\u201cIn Israel, we supported the cancellation of the deal, and everyone is satisfied. Why are we satisfied? What are the options? We will be alone,\u201d he said. \u201cThe Iranians will go down the nuclear path, and the world will support them.\u201d\nIn 1996, Gilead was one of the first to issue a strategic warning about the Iranian threat during a briefing to the Israeli government in his role as head of the Military Intelligence\u2019s Evaluation Department.\n\u2018If they could have Hezbollah fire at us every day\u2026they would do that\u2019\nAlso on Tuesday, former Defense Minister and IDF Chief of Staff, Lt.-Gen. (Res.) Moshe Ya\u2019alon said that Iran\u2019s religious-strategic doctrine and attempt to create regional Shi\u2019ite hegemony sees the existence of a Jewish entity in the Middle East as a thorn in its side.\nIran\u2019s strategy is therefore to seek Israel\u2019s destruction, which could also be attempted \u201cby attrition,\u201d Ya\u2019alon warned. \u201cIf they could have Hezbollah fire at us every day or to conduct severe terror attacks . . . every day, they would do that.\u201d\nIsrael enjoys military superiority over its adversaries, and this has caused its remaining foes, led by Iran, to opt for rocket and missile threats, targeting Israel\u2019s home front, noted Ya\u2019alon.\nTo deal with these modern threats, Israel has been fighting a \u201ca War Between Wars,\u201d acting around the clock to target developing threats in a manner that delays the next war for as long as possible.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve been able to do this for a long time,\u201d Ya\u2019alon said. \u201cIt requires intelligence superiority and accurate firepower.\u201d",

Visit us at Security Essen!\nStuttgart, Germany (August 12, 2016) \u2013 Dr. Wissdorf, what does Industry 4.0 mean for companies that provide access control products?\nIn my opinion, providers of access solutions should fulfill three criteria.

In the end, the customer does not purchase a single product, but instead a solution for a complex problem.\nThe second criterion is met if components can be networked.

        "raw_content": "> reunion visits\nDiscover the Heritage of Reunion island\n> Natural heritage\n> Agricultural heritage\n> Industrial heritage\nEven though it was already listed on a few maps from the ninth century, Reunion Island remained a real \"desert island\", a virgin land that had never been populated, until 1649. Hence the Reunionese people haven't existed for so long, and no ethnic group can claim this island more than another. This is perhaps what contributes to today's social harmony, an example of tolerance for the whole world.\nVisits to do\nThe history of Reunion has forged a mixed population, which claims its Creole identity with all the various shades resulting from the melting pot of three continents and different religions. Throughout the island, you can visit temples, pagodas, churches and mosques, but also old masters'mansions on large plantations, sugar cane plants turned into museums or still active, rum distilleries, large notables'townhouses now open to the public, historical monuments in memory of the East India Company, properties specialized in the cultivation of vanilla, of bananas, botanical trails or gardens full of plants and endemic species, and of course quality museums that will enlighten you on the history of this unique island.\nReunion Island, a melting pot par excellence, is a cosmopolitan destination that offers a diverse cultural heritage: museums of course, but also historic streets and villages, places of worship and old factories.\nSugarcane, coffee, vanilla, honey, essential oils (geranium, vetiver, ylang-ylang), tropical flowers and fruits (mangoes, bananas, lychees ...), chayotes, vine ... Come and see this production on farms, orchards and cooperatives!\nThe volcanic origin of Reunion provided fertile land favourable to the cultivation of sugar cane, since the mid-nineteenth century. On the island, two factories still transform the cane into sugar, rum and energy. To the delight of onlookers, they open their doors to the public, as do some bottling companies and other small distilleries..\nThe registration of \"Pitons, cirques and remparts of Reunion island\" as a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2010 demonstrates the undeniable botanical interest of this island in the Indian Ocean. The islanders, who love nature and are often anxious to preserve it, will share these natural treasures by guiding you along the wild paths or in gardens with native or imported plants that are carefully documented and presented.",

Bostic Sr.\nBishop Teman Bostic (Photo: Mt. Olive Apostolic Original Holy Church of God.)\nMembers of the Mt. Olive Apostolic Original Holy Church of God in Menlo Park are mourning the loss of their pastor, Bishop Teman L. Bostic Sr., 54, who was found stabbed to death Friday morning, Feb. 12, at an apartment in San Leandro where he lived.\nHis 21-year-old son, Isaiah Bostic, was arrested on suspicion of murder and is being held without bail at Santa Rita Jail in Dublin. He is expected to be arraigned in the Alameda County Superior Court in Hayward on Wednesday, Feb. 17.\nIsaiah Bostic (Photo: San Leandro police)\nTeman Bostic was a son of Elder Hattie L. Bostic, founder and pastor of the church and a community leader who lived in Menlo Park for more than 50 years and died in 2011.\nIn a statement, the church said: Bishop Bostic \"was a pillar in the community of Menlo Park.\" He was \"the presiding prelate of the Apostolic Original Holy Church of God Inc., a nationwide affiliation of churches. He evangelized nationally and internationally. He will be greatly missed. We are soliciting your prayers in this time of great loss.\"\nTeman L. Bostic Sr. was the eldest of five children born to Deacon Leon Bostic and Dr. H.L. Bostic, according to a biography on the church's website. He received his early education in Menlo Park and Palo Alto.\nAt Mt. Olive church, he served as a musician, Sunday school teacher, deacon, trustee, minister, elder and district elder.\nIn November 1994 with the support of his mother, he founded and organized Word, Power, and Praise Family Community Church in Fremont.\nIn July 1998, he was elevated to the office of Bishop over the Western District (including California, Oregon, Washington, Mississippi and Nevada) of the Apostolic Original Holy Church of God Inc.\nHe was active in the community, serving on the board of directors and as president of the Crime Prevention Narcotics Drugs Educational Center in Menlo Park, and coaching the center's community basketball team in its annual charity games with players of the San Francisco 49ers football team.\nHis mother, Elder Hattie Bostic and associates founded the church in 1963. In 1971, members built the church at 605 Hamilton Ave. in Menlo Park. In 1992, it was rebuilt as a larger church and community center.\nIn 2013, the church celebrated 50 years of ministry with a number of community and church events.\nOfficers respond to calls\nOn Friday, Feb. 12, at around 5:30 a.m., officers responded to 911 calls from residents of the apartment complex at 950 Juana Ave. in San Leandro. They reported hearing a struggle inside the apartment where the two Bostics lived, police said.\nThe residents reported hearing a voice saying, \"Your dad is bleeding \u0096 I don't want to die.\"\nIsaiah Bostic opened the front door to the apartment when officers arrived and the 21-year-old had blood on his hands and clothing, police said.\nOfficers found the older Bostic stabbed multiple times and he was pronounced dead at the scene.\nOfficers arrested Isaiah Bostic on suspicion of murder and took him to the city jail.\nDetective and crime scene investigators interviewed witnesses and collected evidence. They said they will meet with the Alameda County district attorney on Tuesday morning, Feb. 16, and seek murder charges against Isaiah Bostic.\nPolice said they are continuing their investigation and not releasing other details of the case, including the possible motive.\n\u2014 Almanac staff\nI was moved to tears by this story, the Bostics are a beloved and wonderful family in our community. My prayers are with all the family, may we be moved to help and hold this family dear to our hearts.",

Our fully trained medical professionals assess an individual\u2019s physical and mental capacities by undertaking several tests.\nPersonal Track Safety (PTS)\nA PTS Certificate is required before anyone is allowed to work on or near the line within Network Rail in the UK.

It is important that workers are not suffering from medical conditions or undergoing any treatments that could cause a loss of consciousness or impairment issues (either mental or mobility-related). Not only could such issues compromise an individual\u2019s ability to undertake their work, if in a safety-critical role, it could pose a significant risk to the health and safety of the individual themselves as well as co-workers and the general public. To safeguard employees and the reputation of the business, regular medicals and drug and alcohol testing is recommended. AlphaBiolabs offers a range of medical assessments that can be tailored to specific workplace sectors and individual needs.\nMedical assessments when you need them\nAlphaBiolabs offers a complete package of medical assessment and drug and alcohol testing. Our nationwide network of medical professionals can visit a convenient location (whether work or home) to undertake workplace medical assessments and testing services for a variety of industries. We also offer unique Walk in Centres where in-house medical professionals can save you time and money by performing your medical assessment and testing services at the same time in dedicated facilities. All services are delivered to required industry standards, including RISQS (Rail Industry Suppliers Quality Scheme), and we are covered by the ISO 9001 (2015) quality management system. All of our medical assessments are tailored to your workplace sector and individual needs. Where applicable, AlphaBiolabs will upload results to the relevant industry portals, such as Sentinel.\nRegular drug and alcohol testing does not only increase productivity, decrease costs and maintain the reputation of a company, it also means that a business is operating lawfully to ensure the safety of employees and the general public. Drug and alcohol-related problems are responsible for millions of lost work days every year. They are also involved in up to 60% of all fatal work-related accidents. AlphaBiolabs offers an extensive range of professional, confidential and comprehensive workplace drug and alcohol testing services.

Our nationwide network of medical professionals can visit your workplace to undertake the combined package. Alternatively, employees can visit their nearest Walk in Centre. We also offer the option of rapid response sample collections, in the case of post-incident substance abuse testing.\nOur sample collectors will use a breathalyser (which is approved by the Home Office under the Road Traffic Act 1988, Transport & Works Act 1992 and Railways and Transport Safety Act 2003) to test for alcohol in the breath. The person being tested blows into the device, and the results are given as a digital readout. The readout is a number, known as the breath alcohol concentration (BAC), which shows the level of alcohol in the breath at the time the test was taken. It does not measure past use of alcohol. AlphaBiolabs has a number of devices for breath alcohol testing dependent on your individual needs.\nA urine screening test is used to determine whether someone is misusing drugs by taking a sample of their urine and analysing it for particular substances. This form of testing can give an immediate negative result, which may mean that no further action is necessary. A non-negative result may require confirmation testing from the laboratory in order to determine exactly what substance was taken and in what quantities. Urine drug screening\u2019s period of detection is approximately 4 days, although this can depend on the particular substance taken. If necessary, further testing services can be undertaken, such as hair strand tests, to establish a history of drug use. (Please note: In the case of Personal Track Safety medicals, all samples need to be sent back to the laboratory. On-site drug screening is not available.)

        "raw_content": "Dream Destinations: Data Science and the Travel Industry\n\"In the middle ages people were tourists because of their religion, whereas now they are tourists because tourism is their religion.\"\nTourism is vital for many countries, such as Egypt, Greece, Lebanon, Spain and Thailand, and many island nations, such as The Bahamas, Fiji, Maldives and the Seychelles, due to the large intake of money for businesses with their goods and services and the opportunity for employment in the service industries associated with tourism. These service industries include transportation services, such as airlines, cruise ships and taxis, hospitality services, such as accommodations, including hotels and resorts, and entertainment venues, such as amusement parks, casinos, shopping malls, various music venues and the theatre.\nThe Travel, Tourism and Hospitality industries are witnessing competition growing at an all time high pace. In such a scenario, maximizing customer lifetime value by utilizing analytical tools to identify new prospects and by providing progressive service to retain existing customers will be critical. Customer satisfaction is the fundamental measure for the contact center and directly impacts financial results. Every industry today is facing increasing competition finding and retaining customers. Faced with increasing choices for products and services, customer's expectations are continuously rising. In many industries, customer service is the only remaining differentiator. To be successful in this environment, companies must implement a strategy that manages the entire customer lifetime value. This is especially true in the Travel, Tourism and Hospitality (TTH) industry.\nSuccessful companies look to service delivery providers to enhance their business processes through the use of customer analytics, performance optimization and by implementing progressive customer service solutions. By embedding analytics in every step of a customer\u2019s lifecycle, businesses have found that they are better at predicting a customer\u2019s likely behavior and thus can improve the balance sheet and drive shareholder value. In many cases, services from individual TTH providers can be difficult to distinguish from each other and offering a unique and satisfying customer experience can differentiate one product and provide a reason for customers to stay with you over time.\nANALYTICS DRIVEN SOLUTIONS FOR THE INDUSTRY\nWhen evaluating service provider\u2019s delivery capabilities, it is important to consider their operational excellence, global right-sourcing expertise, and technological innovation - these are the methods that will enable your organization to maximize the value of every customer interaction. By applying analytics to an organization\u2019s existing blended quality model, and through leveraging ISO, COPC, and Six Sigma methodologies and processes, progressive service providers can reduce clients operational costs, improve customer satisfaction levels and increase revenues.\nDEVELOPMENT THROUGH ANALYTICS DRIVEN SOLUTIONS\nThe goal is creating actionable insights for marketers. Techniques and tools at ATI can be used to analyze marketing and other revenue enhancing initiatives through quantitative models. These relevant quantitative tools (e.g. predictive modeling, data mining, etc.) are used to collaborate and build appropriate models that provide valuable insights, and then make them actionable (e.g. enhanced campaign response rates, better cross-sell etc.) to achieve desired business outcomes. These packages can further be used in determining the following critical decisions:\nHow can I prioritize whom to target?\nWhich prospects will respond to this campaign?\nHow can I acquire more customers who look like my best customers?\nHow do I optimize my campaign dollars by focusing on the right prospects?\nHow can I compare the characteristics of different segments to determine segment-specific actions?\nWhat is the profitability and channel usage of each of my guest segments?\nWhich of my guest are good candidates for cross-selling?\nWhich products or services are most appropriate?\nWhat is the best time and channel to make an offer?\nHow can I precisely target my cross-sell offers to reduce the possibility of customer fatigue?\nWhat is the expected demand from various customer segments?\nHow do I price the inventory (of seats, rooms, etc.) to maximize my revenue?\nHow will I reserve my inventory to my most valuable customers?\nHow can I use pricing as a tool to enhance my revenues, in a scientific manner?\nSAS FOR TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION\nThe travel and transportation industries continually strive to improve speed, efficiency, flexibility, service area and the customer experience, while reducing costs and improving profits. Transportation is the backbone of our entire commercial ecosystem. Advances in engineering and technology are applying pressure on the industry to keep pace with the growing needs of the economy both local and global. Travel is tightly coupled with the hospitality industry and is about building strong customer loyalty and using various sources of customer information for greater insight to move from frequency-oriented marketing to more value- or service-oriented programs.\nhttp://www.sas.com/industry/travel/index.html\nATI aims at training and aiding professionals for tourism market research, audience development, custom survey research, and market segmentation studies to help clients understand the economic impact and visitor makeup of their marketplace.\nTagged: Travel & Tourism, Hospitality Industry\nNewer PostWhat College Grads need to know about Data Science\nOlder PostWhy Analytics?",

        "raw_content": "Strengthening Your Company\nConstruction Cost Reviews\nAnchin\u2019s Business Risk Services Group helps companies manage their risk at a strategic and operational level. While you work closely with a small team that is well versed in every discipline of business risk services, you also have access to the support and expertise of dozens of renowned specialists and the experience of more than 300 professionals. Anchin as a firm is segmented into teams of industry experts, reflecting all of the major business sectors in the metropolitan area. This affords us the attention to detail and flexibility of a boutique firm and the intellectual capital of a national firm.\nOur team of professionals enables businesses to design and assess the internal controls of their financial reporting systems. Our clients include publicly held companies that we assist in complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This section requires that management and their auditors certify that their system of internal controls has been evaluated against a recognized internal control standard that will be effective in preventing a material misstatement in a company\u2019s financial statements.\nIn addition, Anchin applies these same skills to our privately held and not for profit clients. These companies have seen and experienced how the best practices required by Section 404 can help them improve business operations and secure their assets as well.\nAnchin maintains best practices in performing our assessments. Our top-down, yet cost effective approach affords our clients a complete solution in a timely manner and is favorably opined by the Big Four and second tier audit firms.\nAnchin also consults with audit committees and boards of directors on ways in which they can strengthen the corporate governance over their businesses. By doing so they ensure that their principles and policies will flow throughout the organization to achieve the integrity and standards with which they want the company to operate. It also allows them to monitor their business to identify deviations from the policies they establish.\nAnchin is available to provide consulting services to the Board of Directors, Audit Committees and Management including internal financial investigations, review of new Accounting policies, due diligence audits, tax compliance and reporting, and special projects.\nThe Business Risk Services Group performs reviews to determine the effectiveness of our clients\u2019 overall business operations in three key areas: operations, information technology and financial management. The process that we use to evaluate each area includes:\nInterviews with selected employees from each stage of the company\u2019s work and information flow\nInterviews with key vendors and clients\nA dry run through key business processes\nAnalysis and testing of findings\nPractical recommendations based on our research\nThis comprehensive examination of the company\u2019s personnel, business processes and infrastructure, inclusive of the information technology department, not only uncovers and corrects inefficiencies within or between these elements but also extends to interactions with suppliers and feedback from customers or clients. By extending our review to every facet of our clients\u2019 business model, we help establish or enhance their competitive advantages. In those instances where we detect significant control weaknesses in the Information Technology Department, we may recommend a more comprehensive examination of that department in the context of an IT Audit.\nWe have conducted these reviews for companies in a wide range of industries, including: Advertising and Public Relations, Collectibles, Construction, Direct Mail, Energy, Entertainment, Financial Services, Healthcare, Health Clubs, Hospitality, Import/Export, Licensing and Trademarks, Manufacturing, Packaging, Pharmaceuticals, Printing, Professional Services, Publishing, Real Estate, Rental Equipment, Retail, Shipping and Wholesale. At the conclusion of each engagement, the client received recommendations that enabled them to improve their operations, systems, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness and emerge as a more competitive player in the marketplace.\nAs a creative, solutions-driven firm, we play an active role in helping owners and developers effectively oversee the financial aspects of their construction projects. Anchin\u2019s professionals have developed a comprehensive approach to reviewing payment applications, change orders and budgets for construction projects of all sizes. Our unique approach can be tailored to fit any construction budget. We have successfully assisted owners and developers in controlling costs of their construction projects ranging in size from $10 million to over $1 billion.\nWe assist our clients by identifying issues early so that they can be resolved as quickly as possible, helping our clients minimize their costs and avoid costly litigation. Our role can be specifically limited to tracking progress against the construction budget and identifying potential cost overruns as early as possible. Our team can also be involved at a higher level, overseeing the bidding process and ensuring that every payment application is accurate and properly supported by all required documentation, only including charges permitted under the applicable contract. Our requisition review can be performed pre or post payment.\nWhen performing a detailed payment application review, our most common findings include:\nChange orders for work that is within the scope of the original contract\nDuplicate billings\nBillings for items unrelated to the project\nInsufficient documentation to support billings\nLabor hours/rates charged do not match the contract or time sheets\nMiscalculation of insurance charges and overhead allocations\nOur clients view this service as a valuable tool to help them achieve their goals.\nThe professionals in Anchin\u2019s Business Risk Services Group have a big picture perspective as certified public accountants, certified fraud examiners, certified information systems auditors, valuation experts and operational management specialists. We are trained to look beyond the numbers and help companies optimize their operations and value through the effective use of information, manpower and strategic planning. Our experienced consultants identify cost-effective, pragmatic solutions to our clients\u2019 business concerns.\nBusiness Risk Services Group helps companies:\nStrengthen the effectiveness of their corporate governances including their system of internal controls\nStrengthen the effectiveness of our clients\u2019 overall business operations through risk assessments and the operational reviews of critical business processes\nStrengthen the controls, security, operation and selection of technology of our clients\u2019 IT systems and environment\nMaximize the efficiencies of our clients electronic information management and E discovery requirements\nBy providing internal audit functions",

        "raw_content": "The Mausoleum of Augustus was actually one of the first of many large building projects undertaken in the reign of Rome's first emperor. When the Mausoleum was completed in 28 BCE, it was easily the biggest tomb in the Roman world, a record it held throughout the Roman period. Now a ruin situated in Piazza Augusto Imperatore near the river Tiber, this once magnificent circular edifice stood around 45 metres high and almost 90 metres in diameter. Within were interred not only the remains of Augustus himself but also other prominent members of the imperial family including his two sons and later emperors such as Tiberius, Nero and Nerva.\nThe Mausoleum was described by Strabo, who likened it to a huge mound or tumulus, all white and surrounded by trees. From his visit in 7 BCE he also mentions that on the top of the dome was a bronze statue of Augustus. The Mausoleum, then, was a circular building with a diameter of 300 Roman Feet or around 89 metres. The precise height of the structure is not known as the upper portions of the Mausoleum have not survived. Most likely with a single domed roof or a stepped dome with a small domed barrel in the centre, the overall height of the building may have reached 150 RF or between 40 and 45 metres. The external wall alone was 40 RF or around 12 metres high. The ruins today only reach a height of 30 metres.\nThe very shape of the structure - a huge mound - recalls the traditional tombs of the Bronze Age such as those at Troy.\nMaterials & Layout\nThe building was constructed using concrete and large limestone (travertine) blocks for the core of the structure, tufa rubble as filler material, and white limestone for the facing. The inner concrete walls are arranged in three concentric circles and attached via semi-circular buttresses to the external wall for extra support. This complex arrangement meant the four walls were, collectively, an impressive 25 metres thick. The Mausoleum had only a single entrance which faced the Field of Mars and gave access via a short corridor to an inner circle corridor which was vaulted. This inner circle wall had two entrances placed side by side which gave access to another circular corridor and the small inner burial chamber, once again circular but with a concrete central column. The interior walls of this chamber had three rectangular recesses for the placement of funerary urns. The central column also had a recess, this time square and probably reserved for an urn containing the ashes of Augustus himself.\nA Family Mausoleum\nThe building was perhaps influenced by, or Augustus may even have wished to rival, the tombs of those other legendary rulers in antiquity King Mausolos of Caria at Halicarnassus and Alexander the Great in Egypt. The very shape of the structure - a huge mound - also recalls the traditional tombs of the Bronze Age such as those at Troy, from where the Julian family claimed ancestry. The Mausoleum was designed to hold members of this family and those interred within it included Augustus' nephew Marcellus (died 23 BCE), his son-in-law Marcus Agrippa (12 BCE), Drusus the Elder (9 BCE), Augustus' two sons Lucius and Gaius Caesar (2 and 4 CE respectively), and the emperor himself in 14 CE. Then followed a long line of relations and associates including Drusus the Younger, Livia, Tiberius, Agrippina, Nero, Drusus (brother of Caligula), Poppaea, and Nerva.\nOn the death of Augustus two bronze plaques were placed on either side of the Mausoleum entrance. These were inscribed with the emperor's lifetime achievements, his Res Gestae. Around the 4th century CE two red Aswan granite obelisks were erected either side of the entrance. These were later removed, one to stand outside the church of S.Maria Maggiore on the Esquiline and the other to be integrated into the Horse fountain in Piazza del Quirinale.\nAs with many other Roman monuments the Mausoleum was converted into a fortress in the Middle Ages, this particular one by the Colonna clan. The fortress was subsequently broken down in 1167 CE and many of the stones, especially the large outer travertine blocks, were recycled for use elsewhere. Faring slightly better in the 16th century CE, the Soderini clan made the now flat rooftop into an ornamental garden. This was changed once again in the 18th century CE into a bull-fighting arena and, later, a site for circus acts. Finally, the early 20th century CE saw the building converted into a concert hall before an interest in ancient Rome in the fascist era led to the stripping away of all later additions. Today, the ruined building casts a somewhat forlorn figure of overgrown grass and dishevelled-looking cypress trees; with its steadily crumbling interior walls now only hinting at the former glory of this once great monument to Roman vanity.\nThe Mausoleum at Halicarnassus (Bodrum, Turkey), was a massive...\nLivia Drusilla (58 BCE - 29 CE) was the third wife of emperor...\nAugustus Caesar (27 BCE \u2013 14 CE) was the name of the first...\nReforms of Augustus\nEmperor Augustus (27 BCE \u2013 14 CE) accomplished...\nThe Pax Romana (Roman Peace) was a period of relative peace and...\nThe History of the Ancient World: From the Earliest Accounts to the...\nW.

        "title": "REVIEW: Inu \u00d7 Boku SS GN 1 - Forum - Anime News Network",
        "raw_content": "REVIEW: Inu \u00d7 Boku SS GN 1\nThe anime adaptation had a very strong opening and ending along the lines mentioned in this review but a long, very forgettable stretch in the middle. I'm curious as to how the original work progresses.\nI own up to volume 7 of the French edition, and I'm really surprised by some of what I'm reading here.\nThe biggest offender at this point is the aggressive lesbian stereotype Nobara Yukinokouji, although part of her annoying factor may come from Yen Press' translation of her catchphrase as \u201csmexy,\u201d which is frankly just irritating to read.\nDid YP really translate Nobara's \"Maniac\" (which is literally what she says in the original manga and anime) to \"Smexy\"? What's the point of that, since the catchphrase was already in English? And on top of that they renamed Karuta, Carta? Now that's pretty dumb... Apparently they didn't care too much that a bunch of potential buyers have already seen the series on Crunchyroll, or even bought Sentai's BD or DVD, and will most likely be quite annoyed by those choices. Weird.\nAnyway, I'm really digging the manga so far, I've read most of it and I can tell you that it goes to some CRAZY places once it gets past the events covered in the anime. A very enjoyable read.\nAs Cocoa Fujiwara's biggest fan, let me just say this... Dear was far better than Inu x Boku SS, and it totally deserved an anime adaptation.\nIt's unfortunate that only Inu Boku SS has received such popularity in the west.\nI'm so glad someone else addressed the \"MANIAC!\" and \"Karuta\" issue. I almost decided not to buy the next volume because those two things bothered me so much. I try not to let translations bother me, but smexy was just too much...\nI would love to see Dear in English as well as Cocoa-sensei's new series Former Magical Girl.\nA fellow Cocoa Fujiwara fan!\nYeah, I wish Dear received the same popularity and attention that Inu Boku SS did. I don't know if it has enough potential to become an anime series, but if they bring Dear manga over, they'll have to include Watashi no Ookami-san too because the backstory is in this series.\nI had plans to buy the release when I heard Yen Press was going to pick it up. But changing Karuta's name to Carta (I had no idea who this was until I read the talkback posts), and changing Nobara's \"maniac\" to \"smexy\"?!\nRegardless, I'll probably still pick up the first volume whenever I head over to the bookstore.\nLocation: mitten-state\nI haven't read this (yet\u2014I plan to) but just wanted to mention that the word \"karuta\" in Japanese is derived from \"carta,\" the word for card in several Latin-based languages. I believe Portuguese was the one that introduced the word to Japan.\nI don't know how that word or meaning might relate to the specific character named Karuta/Carta, but I did notice on the Japanese wikipedia page that nearly every character's name is written entirely in kanji\u2014I saw a couple with hiragana\u2014while Carta's name alone is written in katakana (generally used for foreign and loan words). So to me, it makes sense for a translation to go to the root word, and it also causes the character's name stand out as \"not-Japanese\" the same way it might to a Japanese reader seeing the use of katakana.\nAs for maniac/smexy, they both sound annoying to me, and maybe smexy is worse, but I'm inclined to believe that the use of \"maniac\" in the original rarely made grammatical or actual sense in context, and so could reasonably be changed to something that wouldn't sound quite so random/weird/Engrish-y to an English-language reader. I may be wrong, not having read the original (I watched the series on CR for a while but my memory of specifics is foggy).\nedit: I went ahead and rewatched the first two episodes on CR to refresh my memory. The translation entirely ignored the use of the word \"maniac.\" I could see where \"smexy\" would make contextual sense in the places Nobara spoke maniac, but actually keeping the word \"maniac\" would've been a stretch, or sounded awkward at least.\nYes, it is derived from the Portuguese word 'carta'.\nK\u014djien says:\n\u30ab\u30eb\u30bf \u3010carta \u30dd\u30eb\u30c8\u30ac\u30eb\nPortuguese brought packs of cards which were similar to today's playing cards to Japan in the latter half of the 16th century, and they became the 'Tensh\u014d carta' playing cards in Japan.\nAs to the reason why the name of the character in question is Carta:\nDomino-like game tiles were called \u9aa8\u724c (lit. 'bone tiles') in China.\nThe term was diverted to another purpose, which was to also mean playing cards.\nSo the word 'karuta' is often written as '\u9aa8\u724c' in Japan.\nOne of the character's ancestors was Gashadokuro, a skeleton y\u014dkai.\nTherefore, the character has that name, which is related to bones in a sense.\nOn a side note, recently I happened to re-read a book by Kinoshita Mokutar\u014d, a scholar who also studied Spanish and Portuguese cultures in Japan in the mediaeval and early modern periods.\nI've been thinking about this a lot since I voiced the complaint in the review, and I tend to agree with Lys that \"maniac\" might not have worked very well either - was it an issue for those of you who have read it in another language? (I'm kind of kicking myself for not picking up the French edition when I had the chance, just for comparison's sake.) My general feeling is that that kind of catchphrase just doesn't work as well in English, although I hesitate to advocate leaving one out entirely...it is part of Fujiwara's original intention for the character, so it's a tricky situation.\nI think from the context that \"maniac\" was used where a speaker of US English would have used \"crazy\" or \"crazy cool\". I can see the original author looking for something like that and finding a synonym that doesn't have the same slang meaning. I do agree that trying to use the original English misused word wouldn't have the effect intended in the original. Smexy was simply a bad alternative though.\nRestLessone\nPrincess_Irene wrote:\nMaybe ask Yen Press about it? I could see \"Karuta\" potentially being Carta when Romanized. The publisher/author/editor may have even requested it. I think it's possible to incorporate \"maniac\" in English, but \"smexy\" fulfills the same purpose, and avoids the sentence structure issues \"maniac\" suffers.\nWhat really worries me is that YP may lose sales over this, even if it's official word from the Japanese side. Perhaps adding translator note sections would work? Or keep Carta if it's official and jam \"maniac\" in somehow.\nmierin wrote:\nThe reason Karuta's name was changed is because it originates from the game... The game's name originates from the European word Carta or something... Anyway.\nDear, luckily, has been now published in omnibus form in Japan, with each omnibus volume containing two of the original volumes. Ookami-san is also put into one.\nI, personally, strongly doubt this was a request from the Japanese side since the French edition keeps both Karuta and Maniac.\nI'll see if I can scan the translator note that was added when \"maniac\" is used for the first time.\nEDIT: Well, I can't find it... so maybe there was no TL note after all... my bad.\ncloudflare ray# 4a9a059ab3afc17c-IAD",

        "raw_content": "by Mikhail Koulikov, May 12th 2007\nWhile David Williams has been A.D. Vision's presenter at several recent conventions, the Acen 2007 session was led by Matt Greenfield. Without wasting any time, he showed trailers for the recent ADV licenses Innocent Venus and Air . This was followed by the openings for ADV's four new licenses: Red Garden , Pumpkin Scissors , Welcome to the NHK , and Magikano . All four were actually announced earlier in the day via press release, and will begin releasing before the end of 2007. And over the summer months, in addition to the usual convention announcements, ADV will be making other announcements on the company website.\nAcknowledging some of the changes in the US anime industry and especially in the ways retail outlets look at anime, ADV will be looking at various novel ways of packaging and scheduling both series collections and individual DVDs. One effect of this will be that volumes of Air , a \u201cfan-centric\u201d series according to Greenfield, will be released monthly. Because of the four upcoming Neon Genesis Evangelion movies currently in production in Japan, plans to release the 10th Anniversary Evangelion Box Set are currently on hold. ADV remains committed to releasing thinpacks of older titles, but for some series, that may simply not be viable because of lack of store interest. In those cases, ADV will look to options like online distribution and on-demand production.\nNYAV Post, the same dubbing company that produced the first TV season of Ah! My Goddess , has been retained for ADV's release of the second season. One extra included in the Volume 2 DVD will be an interview of Eileen Stevens, conducted by Juliet Cesario, who voiced Belldandy in the original Oh! My Goddess OVA and plays Peorth in the TV series. Subsequent volumes will feature other similar bonus features that take advantage of the history of the entire Ah! My Goddess franchise.\nADV Manga is also making a comeback. Several new titles will be announced in the near future, and many other series have returned to schedule already. Unfortunately, at least some of the manga ADV originally licensed and began publishing did not have strong enough sales to warrant continuing publication.\nAnswering a fan question on how ADV perceives the threat and challenge presented by fansubbers, Matt answered that while fan subtitling is hurting the industry both in the US and in Japan, \u201cthe industry has to learn and adapt to new technology, and has to find ways to work around it.\u201d\nThis report has been verified with the studio representative\nback to Anime Central 2007\ncloudflare ray# 4a9a58f8011cc1e0-IAD",

Keep them locked up without enough exercise and they\u2019ll create a job for themselves\u2014and it won\u2019t be anything helpful like putting the dishes away. Instead, they may eat your couch or strew the trash all over the kitchen. It\u2019s not that they want to be a \u201cbad\u201d dog; they just need a positive outlet.\nOn the other hand, if you\u2019re active and looking for a hiking companion, such a dog might be great for you because they\u2019ll be happy to bound around outside all day.\nDog Walking as Moderate Exercise\nYou know your activity level and whether or not you\u2019re a homebody or like to travel a bit. These are important considerations when thinking about your doggie companion. Will they accompany you on trips? Do you want to get out and walk a dog around your neighborhood a couple of times a day?\nIf you\u2019re moderately active and like to walk, a senior dog might be a good fit for you. The shelters are full of great animals who for one reason or another ended up there\u2014life changes like divorce and sickness are big reasons. They have a lot of love to give and deserve a second chance. The bonus is many of them are already housebroken and know how to walk on a leash.\nTraveling\u2014But Maybe Not on Foot\nHowever, if you\u2019re not very active, you may want to consider a small dog who doesn\u2019t need a lot of exercise. Shih Tzus and Bichons are great for less active households. They\u2019re happy to curl up beside you on the couch while you read or watch TV. They don\u2019t require (or want) lengthy walks, and they\u2019re easy to travel with because of their size. They\u2019ll fit in the backseat or under an airline seat with no problem.\nThe Connection Between Obedience Training and Exercise\nAnother thing you want to consider is the strength of the dog and their training. We\u2019ve known people of all ages who found it difficult to walk their dog simply because their dog was stronger than they are and/or not well-trained. No one wants to be pulled down the street because their dog decided to chase a squirrel. Not only is it not fun, but it can also cause an injury to you or someone else.\nShelter staff and volunteers play the role of matchmaker when it comes to finding good homes for their charges. They\u2019ll ask you questions and help you find the right doggie companion for you. And, of course, you are welcome to reach out to us with questions during your search.\nAt the end of the day, there is no one \u201cbest dog\u201d for you. It\u2019s all about finding a good match. What are you looking for in your next dog?",

        "raw_content": "Want to know when the best time is to visit a business? Well, Google Search will tell you. This new feature pops up when users perform a search for any kind of business on Google. Simply click the title and you\u2019ll get access to the basics like address, directions, hours, phone number, etc. But now, you\u2019ll also see a graph of the most visited times for the business. Scrolling through the bar chart takes you through each day of the week so you can view peak times, and, ideally, avoid those times. This comes in especially handy if it\u2019s a coffee shop, for instance, and you want to grab your daily cup of joe. Avoiding long lines when you\u2019re trying to get to school or work will save you some time if you check Google Search beforehand. Same goes for the gym, the grocery store and your favorite restaurant.\nAvoiding Peak Times\nAccording to Google, this feature can be used for millions of places around the planet, accessible via mobile phone, provided users have an Internet connection. You can also use it as part of Android\u2019s Google Search App. You\u2019ll find pretty much any business on there that gets a lot of business, but not EVERY business is listed. Think print shop vs. coffee house. Which one would you check to see the busiest times? Google provided another example of a Google Search for \u201cBlue Bottle Williamsburg\u201d located in Brooklyn, which illustrated the intense popularity of the shop on Fridays and Saturdays compared with other days during the week. In addition, it go busy during the late morning and afternoon compared with other times of the day.\nIn the process of being rolled out now as we speak, one of the intentions of Google Search is to better inform Google Now users of what to expect at any business they\u2019re going to. It\u2019s not yet integrated into Google\u2019s smart assistant Google Now, but it will be soon. Sure, there are apps out there that tell you the wait times for certain business, such as NoWait for restaurants or theme park apps that post line length times, but those are largely individual in nature. With Google Search, you get access to a variety of businesses within one location. Another perk for Google? This search breakthrough gives Google the ability to collect information from millions of smartphones. This is because the company can collect data from users of its Google Maps application to learn things like traffic patterns and conditions on the down-low. It\u2019s this GPS-backed technology that is powering the new Google Search.\nGoogle said in a recent statement: \u201cMuch like we compute traffic data based on the anonymized aggregated movement of people on the road, we are able to determine relatively how busy a place is.\u201d\nBut Google Search isn\u2019t just advantageous to consumers; it\u2019s also giving a big boost to local business owners. Besides the obvious benefit of providing more clear information to consumers, Google Search also gives owners a better understanding of their own traffic patterns and their peak hours so that they can plan and accommodate for those times. It\u2019s not uncommon for business owners to already employ the use of traffic counters and other tools to present accurate idea on their daily customer encounters, but this new feature gives them a larger platform on which to get the big picture. Business owners can use this information to tweak their product stock, staffing scheduling, hours of operation, and even timing of sales events, points out Entrepreneur. It\u2019s also useful if you don\u2019t have the budget to perform fancy retail analytics, as well. That\u2019s not to say Google is sending the traffic pattern information directly to business owners. They will have to search for the information on apps and online just like everybody else.\nWant to learn what Google Search means to you? Get in touch with your Google Certified Partner, Aqaba Technologies, today to find out how this new feature will impact your business and how you can use it to your advantage. Meanwhile, check your Google location card listing to see if you\u2019re included in the new Search feature!",

        "title": "Letter From Hawaii - Archaeology Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Inside Kauai's Past\nIdeal conditions within an ancient cave system are revealing a rich history that reaches back to a time before humans settled the island and extends to the present day\nSome six million years ago, in the middle of the North Pacific Ocean, volcanic activity bubbling up from deep beneath the Earth\u2019s crust formed Kauai, the most ancient of Hawaii\u2019s major islands. Over time, volcanoes dotting the island spewed magma that cooled and turned to igneous rock, forming steep mountains. Rainwater flowed down the mountains, and, as that runoff reached the Mahaulepu Valley on the island\u2019s southeast coast, it encountered fossilized sand dunes, where, through a process called dissolution, a network of caves was formed.\nFor more than 100,000 years, groundwater seeped in and eroded the limestone. Some 7,000 years ago, the sea encroached and a large portion of the ceiling of one of these caves collapsed, leaving behind a vast oval, mostly open to the sky and filled with brackish water that didn\u2019t dry up until the middle of the twentieth century. It also created what would turn out to be a unique and fortuitous set of conditions that preserved a long, dramatic story of geological change and biological invasions, and of the waves of humans that successively altered the island in radical ways. Paleoecologists and archaeologists working there, surrounded by the high, ancient limestone walls, are beginning to read that record.\nWedged in a crease of hills just above a long white-sand beach favored by sailboarders, the sinkhole sits in a setting so picturesque that Johnny Depp\u2019s Captain Jack Sparrow leaped off the lip of one of its high cliffs in the recent Pirates of the Caribbean movie On Stranger Tides. There, everything from a 352,000-year-old lava flow to a Styrofoam cup washed in during a recent hurricane has been preserved. For the past quarter century, husband-and-wife paleoecologists David Burney and Lida Pigott Burney, along with dozens of colleagues and volunteers, have been digging down through the black mud that fills the sinkhole. There they have uncovered millions of fossils\u2014in fact, the site, referred to as Makauwahi Cave, may be the richest fossil site in the entire Pacific region. The upper levels contain thousands of artifacts, ranging from animal bones to stone tools and carved wood, all of which were washed, blown, or thrown into the cave. But despite the richness of the site in terms of the evidence, Burney doesn\u2019t need expensive drilling equipment or a massive dig project to plumb the site\u2019s secrets. \u201cIt\u2019s the poor man\u2019s time machine,\u201d he says. Small trowels, a very good water pump to keep groundwater under control, and wood-framed screens, along with a great deal of tenacity, are all that\u2019s required.\nOn a recent winter day, Burney is shin-deep in the tar-black ooze at the bottom of one of the excavation pits. He typically locates them at the periphery of the sinkhole, against the cave\u2019s walls, where the stratigraphy is clearer. He motions to me to clamber down a 20-foot aluminum ladder and gives me a history lesson as I descend. After the first few rungs, I leave behind the period after Captain James Cook landed on Kauai in January 1778, the first European known to have visited Hawaii. Plastic, glass, and metal artifacts abruptly cease and are replaced by giant boulders, gravel, and sand in the level below, dated to about four or five centuries ago, unmistakable signs of an enormous tsunami which Burney and his colleagues believe originated from a massive earthquake in the eastern Aleutian Islands. This event, no doubt a catastrophe for the people living on the Kauai coast, deposited a great deal of debris and sealed off the prehistoric layers deposited in the cave from those of the later era of Western contact, leaving the material below undisturbed and uncontaminated.\nNatives and tourists had long known about Makauwahi Cave, but it was Burney who, in August 1992, first grasped its significance for understanding Hawaii\u2019s long and varied history, when he, Lida, and researchers Storrs Olson and Helen James from the Smithsonian Institution stumbled on the site while on vacation. At the time, the Burneys were at New York\u2019s Fordham University and had a keen interest in ecological history and paleontology. One afternoon, while walking on a nearby beach, Burney spotted fresh footprints that appeared to lead into the brush. Curious but cautious, he followed the prints to a small hole at the foot of a cliff, just big enough to crawl through. Inside, he found himself within a giant oval bowl, but he couldn\u2019t see much else through the dense growth and the afternoon\u2019s lengthening shadows.\nThe next morning, before the sun had reached the interior, the two couples were back with a bucket augur, a small hand-powered drill that can pull material up from below ground, making only a small puncture in the surface, not greatly disturbing the site. The first bore went down 10 feet, and Burney found three species of extinct land snails, important indicators of ancient environmental conditions. In the second sample was a small bird skull. \u201cIf you got that much good stuff by drilling two small holes, then I couldn\u2019t imagine what was waiting,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019ve spent much of my life looking for two things\u2014lakes and caves that have fossils in them,\u201d says the peripatetic scientist, who had flitted in this pursuit from the North Carolina sounds to the Serengeti plains to the jungles of Madagascar before moving to Kauai to devote himself to studying Makauwahi Cave. \u201cIf you can find a lake inside a cave, it\u2019s more than twice as good because you get the benefit of both types of fossil-forming environments.\u201d\nAt Makauwahi, the conditions are remarkable. The alkaline limestone and the acidic groundwater cancel each other out and create the perfect neutral pH. \u201cThis is the Goldilocks zone\u2014just right,\u201d he says. \u201cEverything in here is preserved. It\u2019s like pages in a diary. And this process has been operating for thousands of years.\u201d An acidic environment would have destroyed bones, while an alkaline environment would have destroyed plant fossils. But here, not just animal fossils, but also shells, seeds, leaves, and wood, as well as billions of microscopic algae, pollen, and spores are embedded in the layers that extend as far as 33 feet deep to the sinkhole\u2019s floor.\nSince they settled there permanently to devote themselves to studying the cave full-time 10 years ago, the Burneys, along with their team, have been working almost year-round to clear the thick tangle of foliage inside the sinkhole and dig small but deep trenches. Each bucket of mud must be hauled by hand up a ladder while a loud water pump keeps the hole from filling up. Once up top, the mud is washed through mesh screens using garden hoses, and the remains are collected for cataloguing and analysis. In the topmost layers, which go down a few feet, the team retrieved eight-track tapes and Polaroid film packs, a bottle that might have contained the opiate laudanum, perhaps used by Chinese workers who snuck into the cave a century ago, and a coin dated to 1895. Below that, the team found a piece of glass and an iron nail, possibly bartered from the crew of a passing clipper ship on its way to or returning from China, probably in the mid-nineteenth century.\nArtifacts of the more recent past found in Makauwahi Cave are abundant. But the finds that are proving to be the most exciting are those that reveal the impact the first people to settle in Hawaii had on its ancient environment. Hawaii is one of the last places on Earth to have been settled by humans. Thousands of years after people had made their homes on the tip of South America, the heights of the Tibetan plateau, and even the icy edges of Greenland, no human had yet set foot on this volcanic archipelago. When people pulled double-hulled canoes onto Hawaiian shores for the first time, it marked one of our species\u2019 greatest triumphs of exploration. Yet, until recently, archaeologists have been unsure how and when this feat took place.\nThe ancestors of today\u2019s Polynesians, who settled most of the Pacific, including Hawaii, were part of what is called the Lapita culture. They fanned out from East Asia more than 3,000 years ago, but questions about their origins and route remain. Archaeologists have found hundreds of sites across the western Pacific littered with artifacts such as stone axes and organic remains that suggest the island-hopping seafarers traveled great distances with goods, plants, and animals from the large islands along the coast of China and Southeast Asia. This collection of materials, dubbed the Lapita package, made colonization possible. \u201cBut we don\u2019t know where the package comes together,\u201d says Alan Cooper, an archaeologist at the University of Adelaide in Australia.\nBy about 1000 B.C., these people had moved east as far as Samoa and can be identified as early Polynesians. The vast distances required to reach the islands beyond, such as the Society Islands\u2014another 1,500 miles across open ocean\u2014halted further successful migration for nearly 2,000 more years. Then the Polynesians were suddenly on the move again, though it\u2019s not clear why, into the central and eastern Pacific, an area as big as North America. They eventually landed on the Hawaiian islands, possibly first on Kauai, not far from Makauwahi Cave.\nThe timing of these voyages has been hotly debated, largely because archaeological evidence is difficult to recover under the destructive conditions created by the warm and wet climate that dominates the scattered islands of the Pacific, and because of the prevalence of acidic volcanic soils. These two factors wreak havoc on organic material such as the wood, plant remains, and animal bones that can provide firm dates through radiocarbon dating. \u201cThere aren\u2019t enough bones,\u201d explains Cooper, \u201cbecause the preservation is a mess. The Pacific is a hard place to work.\u201d And the ancient seafarers didn\u2019t leave behind texts or inscriptions. But, unlike at many other sites, the conditions inside Makauwahi Cave have preserved a great deal of evidence. \u201cIt\u2019s a really fantastic snapshot of the environment just before and after humans arrive,\u201d says Terry Hunt, an archaeologist at the University of Oregon. \u201cI can\u2019t think of a single site that has yielded as much information about Polynesia in this period.\u201d\nSome of the most prized discoveries in the cave are found below the 400-year-old tsunami layer that Burney believes was deposited in less than an hour. They are the tiny and fragile remnants of ancient fowl. \u201cThis is where the chicken bones are,\u201d he says when I am halfway down the ladder, pointing at a dark layer of earth several feet below the tsunami layer. \u201cWe can be pretty sure they are not mixed with modern stuff. There is no KFC chicken in here at all.\u201d\nWhen Polynesians set out for new places, chickens were an essential part of the settlement package, providing not just meat and eggs and entertainment\u2014cockfighting is still popular across the region\u2014but also bones that could be made into tattooing or sewing needles or musical instruments. Polynesians sometimes left dogs or pigs behind, but they invariably carried chickens to their new destinations. Since domesticated chickens are not native to the Pacific Islands, the presence of chicken bones is a clear marker of human activity, and following the movement of chickens provides a handy way to track the spread of settlement across Polynesia. Realizing this, Burney bagged the chicken remains he discovered and sent them to Cooper\u2019s lab. When compared with the DNA from other samples around Polynesia, researchers found that a distinct set of genes characterized the ancient chickens. The resulting DNA map reveals two distinct waves of exploration, one moving northeast toward Micronesia, and the other moving east to Samoa and Hawaii. Rats traveled extensively with Polynesians as well, but they could hop boats back and forth to different islands, making them difficult to track, says Cooper. Pigs and dogs, apparently, did not make it to some outposts, such as Easter Island.\nThe mud of Makauwahi Cave has also preserved the residue of charcoal that blew into the cave and settled into the muck. Radiocarbon dating of the samples suggests that charcoal is a rare occurrence until A.D. 1200. Its sudden appearance is another marker for human occupation and activity as people began to burn off foliage to plant taro and other staples. Cores taken from ancient stone-lined fishponds on the island produced charcoal that provides comparable dates, clear signs and possible confirmation that humans arrived a good deal later\u2014as much as 800 years later\u2014than many historians had thought. In the same levels as the chicken bones, the Burneys discovered large quantities of fishhooks made from bone and mother-of-pearl and the shells of 16 different kinds of mollusks. These artifacts are evidence of the earliest stages of ancient Hawaiian culture.\nBurning was only one way in which the new settlers transformed Kauai\u2019s landscape. Along with the rats, insects, such as ants, stowed away on their canoes. The combination of human activity and changes wrought by the animals and plants they brought makes it difficult to imagine the island\u2019s environment as it existed before people arrived, but the cave is providing proof that it was once radically different. Standing almost at the bottom of the ladder, Burney says that bones, seeds, and other organic material embedded in the mud around us are below the level of the Polynesians\u2019 appearance on the island, predating their arrival.\nThe Burneys\u2019 work suggests that, in contrast to the weedy fields where sugarcane was long cultivated, the area around the sinkhole was wooded, dominated by a species of small palm. The trade winds blew birds to the island chain, and though these ancient Hawaiian birds had no predators, being blown back to sea meant certain death. Wings, therefore, constituted a risk for larger birds, and thus flightless species arose. More than 50 species of finches hopped through the forests, each adapted to a tiny ecological niche. Two sorts of small birds called rails crept along the ground looking for the eggs of other species to snag. The only mammals on the island before humans arrived were small bats. Avians filled the ecological niches that elsewhere were occupied by grazing animals such as wild sheep and cattle, which could not survive the long journey across the ocean. \u201cThe mallard duck gets here and suddenly grows 10 times as large, stops flying, develops a beak like a tortoise, and goes out and eats the vegetation,\u201d Burney says, gesturing up through the hole. \u201cIt\u2019s a laboratory of evolution.\u201d\nThe island\u2019s most fearsome predator was a type of long-legged owl that caught what flying birds there were in mid-air during the day\u2014there were no nocturnal rodents to eat\u2014and pierced their skulls with pincer claws. \u201cYou can tell by the holes in the skulls of the victims,\u201d says Burney. By now we are standing at the bottom of one of the excavation trenches with cool muck rising halfway to our knees.\nEventually we climb back up, passing the centuries as we go. When we emerge from the pit, Burney\u2019s legs are caked in the black ooze and his black helmet is spotted with dried dirt. He ambles over to the volunteers sorting through the mud using garden hoses and rectangular boxes with one-sixteenth-inch mesh. \u201cDon\u2019t save every last little snail, but every bird bone and every seed we want to keep,\u201d he says to one woman. \u201cThe biggest problem is that people try to screen too much at once,\u201d he explains. \u201cJust keep it to a double handful so you don\u2019t miss anything.\u201d\nArchaeologists have long suspected that the arrival of humans on Hawaii spelled doom for innumerable plant and animal species. Nearly four dozen bird species, many of them extinct, have been recovered from Makauwahi Cave, and other excavations, particularly along the coastal plains, confirm the rapid transformation of the environment once people got there. Though the original settlers likely were a small band of 100 people or so, based on genetic data, rats rapidly populated the islands, posing a deadly threat to the large flightless birds vulnerable to scurrying mammals. The rats also quickly ate the seeds of the native palms, while humans may have overexploited the trees for thatch, causing them to almost disappear from the island. Early engravings made by Europeans who began coming to Hawaii in the late 1700s show the area around Makauwahi Cave to be virtually treeless by this point\u2014coastal plains had been transformed by way of irrigation and ponds, and mass burning had driven the forest back to areas too steep to cultivate. By the time the Europeans arrived, 600 or so years after the islands\u2019 first settlers, Hawaiians numbered perhaps 200,000 or more, and the landscape was a combination of field and forest with few signs of the strange birds that once dominated the chain. One of the surprising finds Burney and his colleague, Australian paleoentomologist Nick Porch of Deacon University, have made is that the accidental introduction of insects, particularly ants, may have devastated the native species of beetles, many of which were wingless and therefore defenseless against the invaders. \u201cIt was insect Armageddon,\u201d Burney says. \u201cWhen people come to a new land, there is always mass extinction.\u201d\nAlthough today only a few native species of plants and animals survive in the lowlands of Kauai, the Burneys are working hard to change this. The land that includes the cave complex is owned by the Grove Farm Company, but it is now managed by the nonprofit Makauwahi Cave Reserve, which the Burneys created. In combination with their archaeological work, they are trying to bring ancient Hawaii back to life, at least on a small scale. Inside the sinkhole, based on what they have found during more than two decades of excavation, they are slowly replacing plants brought by Europeans with both native Hawaiian and Polynesian species. In acres of plant restorations that Lida Pigott Burney has created outside the cave, she and a host of volunteers have planted examples of native plants the Burneys identified in the cave\u2019s fossil record. These species had retreated into largely inaccessible areas, but can thrive in the lowlands if given a chance. The reserve is also home to a few acres of traditional taro and other early Polynesian crops, as well as native palms and indigenous flowering plants that have replaced what was a 200-year monoculture of sugarcane.\nMore than 20,000 visitors, including many students, come to Makauwahi Cave each year to rediscover Hawaii\u2019s lost past. There they learn to plant traditional crops such as bananas and breadfruit, and they visit the Burneys\u2019 fenced restoration containing not only newly cultivated native plants, but also a dozen and a half tortoises that mimic the feeding habits of the long-extinct grazing birds and keep invasive weeds at bay. For Burney, the effort is an innovative way to use archaeological and paleontological data to restore native species to the landscape and revive ancient practices. \u201cI\u2019m just as much interested in the future as the past,\u201d he says. As we part, Burney is off to feed his chickens before dusk.\nAndrew Lawler is a contributing editor at ARCHAEOLOGY and the author of the newly published Why Did the Chicken Cross the World: The Epic Saga of the Bird That Powers Civilization.",

        "title": "Six Biggest LED Lighting Myths - Arlene Bobb Interior Design",
        "raw_content": "Home > Trends > Six Biggest LED Lighting Myths\nThe presentation of light and technology was brilliantly revealed at LIGHTFAIR International 2017. Displays from all over the world revealed new discoveries, new connectivity, new knowledge and new solutions that propel lighting design quickly into the future. All at the world\u2019s largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and conference was held at the Philadelphia Convention Center for architects, engineers and designers for 3 days.\nLED Lighting has completely taken over!! Here\u2019s some very interesting info that I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll love reading and also seeing some of the pictures I took of luminaries at the Light Fair.\nLight emitting diodes or LEDs for short are quickly gaining popularity because right now many companies are offering huge variety of LED products. But just like with any new product, LED lighting also has to deal with judgment and concerns from the consumers, who don\u2019t believe, that these lights could be as efficient as their manufacturers claim them to be. So let\u2019s look as some of these worries and find out why they are just myths.\n1. LED Bulbs are Too Expensive\nOne of the most popular misconceptions about LED lighting is that LED lights are much more expensive than other light bulbs. But that isn\u2019t entirely true. First of all, since the time LED lights first appeared on the market, they have become a lot cheaper. Nowadays the average price of LED bulbs is just a little higher than that of traditional lamps. Second of all, LEDs will cost a lot less in the long run, especially compared to other types of lighting. Average lifespan of a LED bulb is 50,000 hours, whereas outdoor flood lights last for about 35,000 hours, compact fluorescent bulb for 8,000 hours and incandescent light bulb only for 1,200 hours. And thirdly, LEDs consume much less electricity, so the annual operating costs of a LED light are definitely lower than those of other lighting sources.\n2. LED Lamps Aren\u2019t All That Bright\nA very common myth about LED lamps also is that LED bulbs aren\u2019t bright enough to properly illuminate your home. This myth has persisted because the brightness of incandescent light bulbs is often measured in watts. However, that is not the correct way to do it because bulb brightness should be measured in lumens. So, if both 100-watt incandescent light bulbs and an 8-watt LED bulbs outputs 1,600 lumens, you can see how LED bulbs are in fact more energy efficient while still being very bright.\n3. LED Lighting isn\u2019t Efficient\nLots of consumers also assume that LED lights are not energy efficient, although that is not true. This again can be substantiated by looking at the amount of light LED bulbs produce per each watt of consumed energy. 100-watt incandescent light bulbs and 15-watt fluorescent bulbs deliver the same amount of light as 8-watt LED bulbs do. Which means that LED bulbs are up to 12 times more energy efficient than incandescent light bulbs and almost two times more energy efficient than the fluorescent bulb. Do you need any more proof that LED\u2019s actually are highly efficient?\n4. Don\u2019t buy LED Lights Now Because They Will be Cheaper in the Future\nAnother common misconception is that the price of LED products will go down soon, so it is better to wait for a few years to buy and install them. But the truth is, that there won\u2019t be a major fall in LED bulbs prices in the near future. The biggest drop in LED prices has already happened and the rest of the drop will happen steadily over time. LED bulbs were a lot more expensive when they first appeared on the market, but now they cost only a tad more than other types of bulbs. And, since the amount of money you will save on electricity, if you install LED bulbs right now, will considerably exceed any price declines in the future. You should take the LED plunge now!\n5. LED\u2019s Don\u2019t Produce Any Heat\nThen, a hugely popular myth is that LED light bulbs don\u2019t produce any heat and that they run completely cool. Even though it is true that they produce a lot less heat than incandescent or even fluorescent light bulbs, they still produce some warmth. The difference is that LED bulbs don\u2019t give out infrared and ultraviolet light waves, which make other types of lamps hot, but they will still warm up a little bit, especially if run for a long periods of time. Just nowhere near the level of hot that incandescent or fluorescent lights get.\n6. LED Bulbs Actually Don\u2019t Last That Long\nLastly, it is also assumed that LED bulbs actually can\u2019t outlast other types of light bulbs. This myth has been able to stay alive for one reason only\u2013 because many of the new LED bulbs haven\u2019t actually been tested for their whole lifespan. Manufacturers claim that average lifetime of a new LED bulb is 50 000 hours, which means, that LED bulbs can last for up to 7 years. So it would be very hard to to test LED bulb longevity, because\u2013well, the researchers would need to watch the LEDs for almost 7 years. You can be sure that LED bulbs are truly old-timers!!\nLED lighting has come a long way since first LED\u2019s were developed. Nowadays LED lights are affordable, long-lasting and very energy efficient. And knowing the truth behind misconceptions about LED lighting will let you reap all of these LED lighting benefits.",

        "raw_content": "As experts in the installation and maintenance of synthetic grass rugby pitches in Atherstone TA19 9 we can carry out a number of different services to meet your requirements. The latest technology 3G surface means that artificial turf pitches can be installed in order to meet the RFL and RFU governing bodies. We can also install 3G synthetic pitches tested for IRB accreditations in Atherstone. For more info on IRB accreditations please click here http://www.artificialrugbypitches.com/irb-accreditation/somerset/atherstone/ By meeting the national governing body specifications it is possible to play competitive matches making the third generation surfacing a popular choice for sports clubs across the UK. Other organisations that benefit massively from this type of sports flooring include:\nSports clubs in Atherstone TA19 9 and surrounding areas, can take advantage of the porous synthetic turf system as once installed it required little maintenance when compared to a natural grass surface. However, with a good quality bespoke maintenance plan it is possible to extend the life of the carpet by a number of years and prevent the growth of moss and algae. The surface is made up using 3G synthetic fibres containing a sand and rubber crumb infill which improves playing characteristics and the overall safety of the field.\nMany organisations are now contacting us to ask \u2018What is the cost of an artificial grass rugby pitch in the UK?\u2019 and this depends entirely on the size of the pitch, the specification of 3G surfacing and groundwork requirements. With many contractors now claiming to supply and install the latest technology 3G surfacing, it is important to ensure that all the necessary credit checks are carried out before going ahead with the artificial rugby pitch installation. To learn more about the installations we offer, please click here http://www.artificialrugbypitches.com/installations/somerset/atherstone/ By asking companies to display case studies and product sheets showing examples of previous work it provides you with the peace of mind when construction of the artificial field takes place. The surfaces must meet the RFL and RFU national governing body guidelines before competitive play can occur and therefore it is important to ensure that the contractor chosen supplies and installs surfacing to this standard.\nFor more information regarding synthetic pitch construction in Atherstone TA19 9 and surrounding areas, in the UK please fill out the contact form on this page and one of our representatives will be in touch with all the latest sport surfacing information. We can provide you information regarding material costs, prices of full construction and the type of surfacing required for different sports. A synthetic field can dramatically improve the facilities at any sports club and can be used year round during different weather conditions. The permeable surface and sub base allows the free drainage of water into the sub-strata ensuring that the system meets the SUDs requirements for environmentally friendly living. The use of floodlights, fencing and storage areas can make the artificial field a top of the range sport area which generates income from outside sources.\nThe cost to install a 3G rugby pitch near me can vary. One factor which causes the price to alter is the size of the area. If you have a full sized rugby field installed the price will be much higher than having a smaller field constructed. For more details on the constructions we can carry out please visit this page http://www.artificialrugbypitches.com/construction/somerset/atherstone/ We can alter the dimensions of the field to meet your individual budgets and suit your requirements. The price may also be altered if you require additional features like fencing or floodlighting. These extras are not included in the cost and you will need to let us know the equipment which you want.\nIf you would like more information on the installation or maintenance of synthetic grass rugby pitches in Atherstone TA19 9 or you would like us to send you a quote, please contact us via the enquiry form. Our experts will get back to you as soon as possible with more details on costs and prices as well as a range of case studies from our previous work.",

        "raw_content": "The right way to handle chronically late dental patients\nFebruary 8, 2018 /in customer service, Dental practice tips /by Kevin Coughlin\nIn addition to my dental consulting business, I\u2019m also a practicing full time dentist. So I deal with the same issues that my consulting clients deal with day in and day out. I can tell you that one of the biggest pet peeves of dentists (and lawyers and anyone else who takes appointments) is the chronically late client.\nMy expertise is helping dentists implement the proper processes and procedures to help them through all the different phases of their career.\nAlthough I consider myself an expert, I\u2019m also human and I still make mistakes. The trick is to identify the mistakes and take steps to ensure they don\u2019t become career killing habits.\nHow you treat chronically late patients can have a serious impact on your dental practice. Before I go further, let me explain what I mean about chronically late. This is an individual who is 15 or 20 minutes late, between 50 and 75 percent of the time.\nHere\u2019s how we mishandled a recent situation and what it cost us. Firstly, this is an individual who is known (and expected to) be late for most appointments. As usual they began with an apology, followed by an excuse. They knew they were late, but it was traffic.\nOur front desk coordinator was in no mood to hear it. She said \u201cyou\u2019re almost 20 minutes late and something like this cannot continue to happen.\u201d\nWith that the individual turned around and walked right out of the office. Less than 45 minutes later, I received an email saying how dissatisfied this patient was with our organization. He went on to say how unhappy he was about the way he was treated and how he had tried his best to be on time for his appointment.\nThe result of that particular process and procedure around dealing with late patients was that we lost that individual as a patient \u2013 who\u2019d been with our practice for over ten years \u2013 as well as his wife and their three children.\nOffice processes and procedures have a dramatic effect on your day-to-day bottom line as well as your reputation and referrability. At this point, I haven\u2019t seen a social media post or Google review from our former patient, but I\u2019m sure it\u2019s coming.\nSo how could we have handled this situation better? The correct way would be to get the patient seated and comfortable. The next step would be to explain that their appointment was at such and such a time and because they were late, we would do our very best to coordinate and complete their care.\nIn this particular case, it was a simple hygiene appointment. Most dental practices these days will have dental assistants, dental hygienists, doctors and associates to handle a hygiene appointments, regardless of how late that patient is.\nThe point I would try to make in this example is that scolding a patient for being late as they walk in the door should never happen. Save the \u201ceducation\u201d portion of the visit until after the appointment is completed.\nIf this was handled correctly, I think the average person would accept that because they were late it might take a little extra time to get their procedure under way. The result of not handling it properly was a financial hit to our company and to our reputation. And I\u2019m sure if it\u2019s happening to me, it\u2019s happening to others.\nSo when, not if, you have to have a conversation with a chronically late patient, wait until after the set procedure and then have your treatment plan coordinator simply say to Mr. or Mrs. Smith, \u201cis there a time that is better for you so that you won\u2019t be late? Is there a way that we can coordinate the appointment so it is easier for you and there\u2019s less stress on you?\u201d\nProper and clear communication is the best way to reinforce expectations and remind patients that arriving on time is their job.\nhttps://i2.wp.com/www.ascent-dental-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/late-dental-patients.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000&ssl=1 2000 3000 Kevin Coughlin https://www.ascent-dental-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Ascent-Dental-Solutions-300x186-300x186.png Kevin Coughlin2018-02-08 09:29:532018-02-07 20:42:47The right way to handle chronically late dental patients",

        "raw_content": "Archive for category: Customer story\nThe Key to Great Dental Testimonials is Connecting them to Your Brand\nOctober 19, 2017 /in Customer story /by Kevin Coughlin\nIn your marketing it\u2019s always good to have patient testimonials. But it\u2019s even more important to have testimonials that speak to potential new patients.\nConsider the testimonial that goes something like this. \u201cI came to your office today with an emergency and they got me in right away. I really appreciated it.\u201d\n\u201cEvery time I come to the doctor\u2019s office the team members are friendly, the service is good and I enjoy coming back.\u201d\nThat\u2019s also nice. What\u2019s not nice is that they just sit there. They validate a current patients\u2019 decision to choose you for a dentist but do little to motivate new patients to come to your door or pick up the phone.\nA consultant named Ron Sheetz once told me that what\u2019s needed in a good testimonial is a message that connects with people. Everyone knows that you can stage or arrange for a good testimonial. But you can\u2019t do that with a \u2018real\u2019 one.\nWhat\u2019s a real one? One that tells a story that pulls the potential client in and creates an identification with the message.\nHere\u2019s an example:.\n\u201cBefore Dr. Smith, I was always been terrified of the dentist. Clammy hands, lump in my throat, sweat on my forehead, all of it. It started when I was ten and the dentist told me pulling the tooth wouldn\u2019t hurt me. He might have been right in most cases, but this tooth was impacted. The pain jolted me almost out of the chair. He laughed it off and told me it wasn\u2019t that bad. But it was. Dr. Smith doesn\u2019t laugh. He knows exactly what it\u2019s like to be afraid!\u201d\nBetter, right? You can see yourself in that chair, in that situation. It\u2019s probably happened to many of us. Because this dentist is showcasing this story in their marketing shows that they know what it\u2019s like to be in that chair.\nThat, my friends, makes all the difference.\nPeople assume you have the skills to do dental care. What they want to know is that you also have the touch to do human care. To empathize and see yourself in their position.\nThat is the crucial difference between telling a potential client that you know how to do your job and letting them know that you understand and can empathize.\nIf your marketing materials have the standard kind of testimonial, that\u2019s fine. But if you\u2019re looking to create a testimonial with impact, consider what your clients are looking for in a dentist and then ask for testimonials with a bit more meat on them.\nhttps://i1.wp.com/www.ascent-dental-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/dentist-with-patient_BFeiuW0Ho.jpg?fit=3000%2C2000&ssl=1 2000 3000 Kevin Coughlin https://www.ascent-dental-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Ascent-Dental-Solutions-300x186-300x186.png Kevin Coughlin2017-10-19 16:21:312017-10-19 16:21:31The Key to Great Dental Testimonials is Connecting them to Your Brand",

        "raw_content": "General Practice Case Law UNITED STATES v. JONES & MUNSINGWEAR, INC \u2013 Supreme Court of United States\nMUNSINGWEAR, INC.\nMelvin Richter argued the cause for the United States. With him on the brief were Solicitor General Perlman, Assistant Attorney General Morison, Stanley M. Silverberg and Paul A. Sweeney.\nJohn M. Palmer argued the cause for respondent. With him on the brief was H. C. Mackall.\nThe United States filed a complaint on two counts against the respondent, alleging violations of a regulation fixing the maximum price of commodities which respondent sold. The first count prayed for an injunction, the second sought treble damages. By agreement and a pretrial order, the second count was held in abeyance pending trial and final determination of the suit for an injunction. The same procedure was followed as respects another suit for treble damages raising the same issues and covering a later period. The District Court held that respondent\u2019s prices complied with the regulation. Accordingly it dismissed the complaint. 63 F. Supp. 933. The United States appealed from that judgment to the Court of Appeals. While the appeal was pending the commodity involved was decontrolled. Respondent then moved to dismiss the appeal on the ground that the case had become moot. The Court of Appeals granted the motion and dismissed the appeal for mootness. 162 F. 2d 125.\nRespondent then moved in the District Court to dismiss the treble damage actions on the ground that the unreversed judgment of the District Court in the injunction suit was res judicata of those other actions. This motion was granted, the District Court directing the treble damage actions to be dismissed. On appeal the Court of Appeals, by a divided vote, affirmed. 178 F. 2d 204.\nThe controversy in each of the suits concerned the proper pricing formula applicable to respondent\u2019s commodities under the maximum price regulation. That question was in issue and determined in the injunction suit. The parties were the same both in that suit and in the suits for treble damages. There is no question but that the District Court in the injunction suit had jurisdiction both over the parties and the subject matter. And its judgment remains unmodified. We start then with a case which falls squarely within the classic statement of the rule of res judicata in Southern Pacific R. Co. v. United States, 168 U. S. 1, 48-49:\n\u201cThe general principle announced in numerous cases is that a right, question or fact distinctly put in issue and directly determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, as a ground of recovery, cannot be disputed in a subsequent suit between the same parties or their privies; and even if the second suit is for a different cause of action, the right, question or fact once so determined must, as between the same parties or their privies, be taken as conclusively established, so long as the judgment in the first suit remains unmodified.\u201d\nAnd see Cromwell v. County of Sac, 94 U. S. 351, 352; Commissioner v. Sunnen, 333 U. S. 591, 597-598. The question whether the respondent had sold the commodities in violation of the federal regulation, having been determined in the first suit, is therefore laid at rest by a principle which seeks to bring litigation to an end and promote certainty in legal relations.\nThat is the result unless the dismissal of the appeal on the ground of mootness and the deprivation of the United States of any review of the case in the Court of Appeals warrant an exception to the established rule.\nThe absence of a right to appeal was held in Johnson Co. v. Wharton, 152 U. S. 252, to make no difference, the determination in the first suit being binding in a second suit on a different claim. Petitioner argues that that case is distinguishable because here Congress provided an appeal. It contends that if the right to appeal is to be protected, the rigors of res judicata must be alleviated. Concededly the judgment in the first suit would be binding in the subsequent ones if an appeal, though available, had not been taken or perfected. Wilson\u2019s Executor v. Deen, 121 U. S. 525; Hubbell v. United States, 171 U. S. 203. But it is said that those who have been prevented from obtaining the review to which they are entitled should not be treated as if there had been a review. That is the argument. The hardship of a contrary rule is presented. Estoppel is urged. And authorities are advanced to support the view that res judicata should not apply in this situation.[1]\nBut we see no reason for creating the exception. If there is hardship in this case, it was preventable. The established practice of the Court in dealing with a civil case from a court in the federal system which has become moot while on its way here or pending our decision on the merits is to reverse or vacate the judgment below and remand with a direction to dismiss.[2] That was said in Duke Power Co. v. Greenwood County, 299 U. S. 259, 267, to be \u201cthe duty of the appellate court.\u201d That procedure clears the path for future relitigation of the issues between the parties and eliminates a judgment, review of which was prevented through happenstance. When that procedure is followed, the rights of all parties are preserved; none is prejudiced by a decision which in the statutory scheme was only preliminary.\nIn this case the United States made no motion to vacate the judgment. It acquiesced in the dismissal. It did not avail itself of the remedy it had to preserve its rights. Denial of a motion to vacate could bring the case here. Our supervisory power over the judgments of the lower federal courts is a broad one. See 28 U. S. C. \u00df 2106, 62 Stat. 963; United States v. Hamburg-American Co., 239 U. S. 466, 478; Walling v. Reuter Co., 321 U. S. 671, 676-677. As already indicated, it is commonly utilized in precisely this situation to prevent a judgment, unreviewable because of mootness, from spawning any legal consequences.\nThe case is therefore one where the United States, having slept on its rights, now asks us to do what by orderly procedure it could have done for itself. The case illustrates not the hardship of res judicata but the need for it in providing terminal points for litigation.\nMR. JUSTICE BLACK is of the opinion that res judicata should not be applied under the circumstances here shown.\n[1] See Gelpi v. Tugwell, 123 F. 2d 377; Allegheny County v. Maryland Casualty Co., 146 F. 2d 633; Scott, Collateral Estoppel by Judgment, 56 Harv. L. Rev. 1. Restatement, Judgments, \u00df 69 (2) reads as follows: \u201cWhere a party to a judgment cannot obtain the decision of an appellate court because the matter determined against him is immaterial or moot, the judgment is not conclusive against him in a subsequent action on a different cause of action.\u201d\n[2] This has become the standard disposition in federal civil cases: New Orleans Flour Inspectors v. Glover, 161 U. S. 101, 103, modifying 160 U. S. 170; United States v. Hamburg-American Co., 239 U. S. 466; Berry v. Davis, 242 U. S. 468; United States v. American-Asiatic Steamship Co., 242 U.

Loftis III.\nAndrew J. Pincus argued the cause for respondents. With him on the brief were Richard J. Favretto, Roy T. Englert, Jr., and Stephen A. Kroft.[*]\nThis case requires us to define the \u201csham\u201d exception to the doctrine of antitrust immunity first identified in Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc., 365 U. S. 127 (1961), as that doctrine applies in the litigation context. Under the sham exception, activity \u201costensibly directed toward influencing governmental action\u201d does not qualify for Noerr immunity if it \u201cis a mere sham to cover. . . an attempt to interfere directly with the business relationships of a competitor.\u201d Id., at 144. We hold that litigation cannot be deprived of immunity as a sham unless the litigation is objectively baseless. The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit refused to characterize as sham a lawsuit that the antitrust defendant admittedly had probable cause to institute. We affirm.\nPetitioners Professional Real Estate Investors, Inc., and Kenneth F. Irwin (collectively, PRE) operated La Mancha Private Club and Villas, a resort hotel in Palm Springs, California. Having installed videodisc players in the resort\u2019s hotel rooms and assembled a library of more than 200 motion picture titles, PRE rented videodiscs to guests for in-room viewing. PRE also sought to develop a market for the sale of videodisc players to other hotels wishing to offer in-room viewing of prerecorded material. Respondents, Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc., and seven other major motion picture studios (collectively, Columbia), held copyrights to the motion pictures recorded on the videodiscs that PRE purchased. Columbia also licensed the transmission of copyrighted motion pictures to hotel rooms through a wired cable system called Spectradyne. PRE therefore competed with Columbia not only for the viewing market at La Mancha but also for the broader market for in-room entertainment services in hotels.\nIn 1983, Columbia sued PRE for alleged copyright infringement through the rental of videodiscs for viewing in hotel rooms. PRE counterclaimed, charging Columbia with violations of \u00df\u00df 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act, 26 Stat. 209, as amended, 15 U. S. C. \u00df\u00df 1-2,[1] and various state-law infractions. In particular, PRE alleged that Columbia\u2019s copyright action was a mere sham that cloaked underlying acts of monopolization and conspiracy to restrain trade.\nThe parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment on Columbia\u2019s copyright claim and postponed further discovery on PRE\u2019s antitrust counterclaims. Columbia did not dispute that PRE could freely sell or lease lawfully purchased videodiscs under the Copyright Act\u2019s \u201cfirst sale\u201d doctrine, see 17 U. S. C. \u00df 109(a), and PRE conceded that the playing of videodiscs constituted \u201cperformance\u201d of motion pictures, see 17 U. S. C. \u00df 101 (1988 ed. and Supp. III). As a result, summary judgment depended solely on whether rental of videodiscs for in-room viewing infringed Columbia\u2019s exclusive right to \u201cperform the copyrighted work[s] publicly.\u201d \u00df 106(4). Ruling that such rental did not constitute public performance, the District Court entered summary judgment for PRE. 228 USPQ 743 (CD Cal. 1986). The Court of Appeals affirmed on the grounds that a hotel room was not a \u201cpublic place\u201d and that PRE did not \u201ctransmit or otherwise communicate\u201d Columbia\u2019s motion pictures. 866 F. 2d 278 (CA9 1989). See 17 U. S. C. \u00df 101 (1988 ed. and Supp. III).\nOn remand, Columbia sought summary judgment on PRE\u2019s antitrust claims, arguing that the original copyright infringement action was no sham and was therefore entitled to immunity under Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc., supra. Reasoning that the infringement action \u201cwas clearly a legitimate effort and therefore not a sham,\u201d 1990-1 Trade Cases \u2202 68,971, p. 63,242 (CD Cal. 1990), the District Court granted the motion:\n\u201cIt was clear from the manner in which the case was presented that [Columbia was] seeking and expecting a favorable judgment. Although I decided against [Columbia], the case was far from easy to resolve, and it was evident from the opinion affirming my order that the Court of Appeals had trouble with it as well. I find that there was probable cause for bringing the action, regardless of whether the issue was considered a question of fact or of law.\u201d Id., at 63,243.\nThe court then denied PRE\u2019s request for further discovery on Columbia\u2019s intent in bringing the copyright action and dismissed PRE\u2019s state-law counterclaims without prejudice.\nThe Court of Appeals affirmed. 944 F. 2d 1525 (CA9 1991). After rejecting PRE\u2019s other allegations of anticompetitive conduct, see id., at 1528-1529,[2] the court focused on PRE\u2019s contention that the copyright action was indeed sham and that Columbia could not claim Noerr immunity. The Court of Appeals characterized \u201csham\u201d litigation as one of two types of \u201cabuse of . . . judicial processes\u201d: either \u201c`misrepresentations . . . in the adjudicatory process\u2019 \u201d or the pursuit of \u201c`a pattern of baseless, repetitive claims\u2019 \u201d instituted \u201c`without probable cause, and regardless of the merits.\u2019 \u201d 944 F. 2d, at 1529 (quoting California Motor Transport Co. v. Trucking Unlimited, 404 U. S. 508, 513, 512 (1972)). PRE neither \u201callege[d] that the [copyright] lawsuit involved misrepresentations\u201d nor \u201cchallenge[d] the district court\u2019s finding that the infringement action was brought with probable cause, i. e., that the suit was not baseless.\u201d 944 F. 2d, at 1530. Rather, PRE opposed summary judgment solely by arguing that \u201cthe copyright infringement lawsuit [was] a sham because [Columbia] did not honestly believe that the infringement claim was meritorious.\u201d Ibid.\nThe Court of Appeals rejected PRE\u2019s contention that \u201csubjective intent in bringing the suit was a question of fact precluding entry of summary judgment.\u201d Ibid. Instead, the court reasoned that the existence of probable cause \u201cpreclude[d] the application of the sham exception as a matter of law\u201d because \u201ca suit brought with probable cause does not fall within the sham exception to the Noerr -Pennington doctrine.\u201d Id., at 1531, 1532. Finally, the court observed that PRE\u2019s failure to show that \u201cthe copyright infringement action was baseless\u201d rendered irrelevant any \u201cevidence of [Columbia\u2019s] subjective intent.\u201d Id., at 1533. It accordingly rejected PRE\u2019s request for further discovery on Columbia\u2019s intent.\nThe Courts of Appeals have defined \u201csham\u201d in inconsistent and contradictory ways.[3] We once observed that \u201csham\u201d might become \u201cno more than a label courts could apply to activity they deem unworthy of antitrust immunity.\u201d Allied Tube & Conduit Corp. v. Indian Head, Inc., 486 U. S. 492, 508, n. 10 (1988). The array of definitions adopted by lower courts demonstrates that this observation was prescient.\nPRE contends that \u201cthe Ninth Circuit erred in holding that an antitrust plaintiff must, as a threshold prerequisite. . . , establish that a sham lawsuit is baseless as a matter of law.\u201d Brief for Petitioners 14. It invites us to adopt an approach under which either \u201cindifference to . . . outcome,\u201d ibid., or failure to prove that a petition for redress of grievances \u201cwould . . . have been brought but for [a] predatory motive,\u201d Tr. of Oral Arg. 10, would expose a defendant to antitrust liability under the sham exception. We decline PRE\u2019s invitation.\nThose who petition government for redress are generally immune from antitrust liability. We first recognized in Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc., 365 U. S. 127 (1961), that \u201cthe Sherman Act does not prohibit . . . persons from associating together in an attempt to persuade the legislature or the executive to take particular action with respect to a law that would produce a restraint or a monopoly.\u201d Id., at 136. Accord, Mine Workers v. Pennington, 381 U. S. 657, 669 (1965). In light of the government\u2019s \u201cpower to act in [its] representative capacity\u201d and \u201cto take actions . . . that operate to restrain trade,\u201d we reasoned that the Sherman Act does not punish \u201cpolitical activity\u201d through which \u201cthe people . . . freely inform the government of their wishes.\u201d Noerr, 365 U. S., at 137. Nor did we \u201cimpute to Congress an intent to invade\u201d the First Amendment right to petition. Id., at 138.\nNoerr, however, withheld immunity from \u201csham\u201d activities because \u201capplication of the Sherman Act would be justified\u201d when petitioning activity, \u201costensibly directed toward influencing governmental action, is a mere sham to cover . . . an attempt to interfere directly with the business relationships of a competitor.\u201d Id., at 144. In Noerr itself, we found that a publicity campaign by railroads seeking legislation harmful to truckers was no sham in that the \u201ceffort to influence legislation\u201d was \u201cnot only genuine but also highly successful.\u201d Ibid.\nIn California Motor Transport Co. v. Trucking Unlimited, 404 U. S. 508 (1972), we elaborated on Noerr in two relevant respects. First, we extended Noerr to \u201cthe approach of citizens . . . to administrative agencies . . . and to courts.\u201d 404 U. S., at 510. Second, we held that the complaint showed a sham not entitled to immunity when it contained allegations that one group of highway carriers \u201csought to bar . . . competitors from meaningful access to adjudicatory tribunals and so to usurp that decisionmaking process\u201d by \u201cinstitut[ing] . . . proceedings and actions . . . with or without probable cause, and regardless of the merits of the cases.\u201d Id., at 512 (internal quotation marks omitted). We left unresolved the question presented by this case\u00f3whether litigation may be sham merely because a subjective expectation of success does not motivate the litigant. We now answer this question in the negative and hold that an objectively reasonable effort to litigate cannot be sham regardless of subjective intent.[4]\nOur original formulation of antitrust petitioning immunity required that unprotected activity lack objective reasonableness. Noerr rejected the contention that an attempt \u201cto influence the passage and enforcement of laws\u201d might lose immunity merely because the lobbyists\u2019 \u201csole purpose . . . was to destroy [their] competitors.\u201d 365 U. S., at 138. Nor were we persuaded by a showing that a publicity campaign \u201cwas intended to and did in fact injure [competitors] in their relationships with the public and with their customers,\u201d since such \u201cdirect injury\u201d was merely \u201can incidental effect of the. . . campaign to influence governmental action.\u201d Id., at 143. We reasoned that \u201c[t]he right of the people to inform their representatives in government of their desires with respect to the passage or enforcement of laws cannot properly be made to depend upon their intent in doing so.\u201d Id., at 139. In short, \u201cNoerr shields from the Sherman Act a concerted effort to influence public officials regardless of intent or purpose.\u201d Pennington, 381 U. S., at 670.\nNothing in California Motor Transport retreated from these principles. Indeed, we recognized that recourse to agencies and courts should not be condemned as sham until a reviewing court has \u201cdiscern[ed] and draw[n]\u201d the \u201cdifficult line\u201d separating objectively reasonable claims from \u201ca pattern of baseless, repetitive claims . . . which leads the factfinder to conclude that the administrative and judicial processes have been abused.\u201d 404 U. S., at 513. Our recognition of a sham in that case signifies that the institution of legal proceedings \u201cwithout probable cause\u201d will give rise to a sham if such activity effectively \u201cbar[s] . . . competitors from meaningful access to adjudicatory tribunals and so . . . usurp[s] th[e] decisionmaking process.\u201d Id., at 512.\nSince California Motor Transport, we have consistently assumed that the sham exception contains an indispensable objective component. We have described a sham as \u201cevidenced by repetitive lawsuits carrying the hallmark of insubstantial claims.\u201d Otter Tail Power Co. v. United States, 410 U. S. 366, 380 (1973) (emphasis added). We regard as sham \u201cprivate action that is not genuinely aimed at procuring favorable government action,\u201d as opposed to \u201ca valid effort to influence government action.\u201d Allied Tube & Conduit Corp. v. Indian Head, Inc., 486 U. S., at 500, n. 4. And we have explicitly observed that a successful \u201ceffort to influence governmental action . . . certainly cannot be characterized as a sham.\u201d Id., at 502. See also Vendo Co. v. Lektro-Vend Corp., 433 U. S. 623, 645 (1977) (Blackmun, J., concurring in result) (describing a successful lawsuit as a \u201cgenuine attemp[t] to use the . . . adjudicative process legitimately\u201d rather than \u201c`a pattern of baseless, repetitive claims\u2019 \u201c). Whether applying Noerr as an antitrust doctrine or invoking it in other contexts, we have repeatedly reaffirmed that evidence of anticompetitive intent or purpose alone cannot transform otherwise legitimate activity into a sham. See, e. g., FTC v. Superior Court Trial Lawyers Assn., 493 U. S. 411, 424 (1990); NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co., 458 U. S. 886, 913-914 (1982). Cf. Vendo, supra, at 635-636, n. 6, 639, n. 9 (plurality opinion of Rehnquist, J.); id., at 644, n., 645 (Blackmun, J., concurring in result). Indeed, by analogy to Noerr `s sham exception, we held that even an \u201cimproperly motivated\u201d lawsuit may not be enjoined under the National Labor Relations Act as an unfair labor practice unless such litigation is \u201cbaseless.\u201d Bill Johnson\u2019s Restaurants, Inc. v. NLRB, 461 U. S. 731, 743-744 (1983). Our decisions therefore establish that the legality of objectively reasonable petitioning \u201cdirected toward obtaining governmental action\u201d is \u201cnot at all affected by any anticompetitive purpose [the actor] may have had.\u201d Noerr, 365 U. S., at 140, quoted in Pennington, supra, at 669.\nOur most recent applications of Noerr immunity further demonstrate that neither Noerr immunity nor its sham exception turns on subjective intent alone. In Allied Tube, supra, at 503, and FTC v. Trial Lawyers, supra, at 424, 427, and n. 11, we refused to let antitrust defendants immunize otherwise unlawful restraints of trade by pleading a subjective intent to seek favorable legislation or to influence governmental action. Cf. National Collegiate Athletic Assn. v. Board of Regents of Univ. of Okla., 468 U. S. 85, 101, n. 23 (1984) (\u201c[G]ood motives will not validate an otherwise anticompetitive practice\u201d). In Columbia v. Omni Outdoor Advertising, Inc., 499 U. S. 365 (1991), we similarly held that challenges to allegedly sham petitioning activity must be resolved according to objective criteria. We dispelled the notion that an antitrust plaintiff could prove a sham merely by showing that its competitor\u2019s \u201cpurposes were to delay [the plaintiff\u2019s] entry into the market and even to deny it a meaningful access to the appropriate . . . administrative and legislative fora.\u201d Id., at 381 (internal quotation marks omitted). We reasoned that such inimical intent \u201cmay render the manner of lobbying improper or even unlawful, but does not necessarily render it a `sham.\u2019 \u201d Ibid. Accord, id., at 398 (Stevens, J., dissenting).\nIn sum, fidelity to precedent compels us to reject a purely subjective definition of \u201csham.\u201d The sham exception so construed would undermine, if not vitiate, Noerr. And despite whatever \u201csuperficial certainty\u201d it might provide, a subjective standard would utterly fail to supply \u201creal `intelligible guidance.\u2019 \u201d Allied Tube, supra, at 508, n. 10.\nWe now outline a two-part definition of \u201csham\u201d litigation. First, the lawsuit must be objectively baseless in the sense that no reasonable litigant could realistically expect success on the merits. If an objective litigant could conclude that the suit is reasonably calculated to elicit a favorable outcome, the suit is immunized under Noerr, and an antitrust claim premised on the sham exception must fail.[5] Only if challenged litigation is objectively meritless may a court examine the litigant\u2019s subjective motivation. Under this second part of our definition of sham, the court should focus on whether the baseless lawsuit conceals \u201can attempt to interfere directly with the business relationships of a competitor,\u201d Noerr, supra, at 144 (emphasis added), through the \u201cuse [of] the governmental process \u00f3as opposed to the outcome of that process\u00f3as an anticompetitive weapon,\u201d Omni, 499 U. S., at 380 (emphasis in original). This two-tiered process requires the plaintiff to disprove the challenged lawsuit\u2019s legal viability before the court will entertain evidence of the suit\u2019s economic viability. Of course, even a plaintiff who defeats the defendant\u2019s claim to Noerr immunity by demonstrating both the objective and the subjective components of a sham must still prove a substantive antitrust violation. Proof of a sham merely deprives the defendant of immunity; it does not relieve the plaintiff of the obligation to establish all other elements of his claim.\nSome of the apparent confusion over the meaning of \u201csham\u201d may stem from our use of the word \u201cgenuine\u201d to denote the opposite of \u201csham.\u201d See Omni, supra, at 382; Allied Tube, 486 U. S., at 500, n. 4; Noerr, supra, at 144; Vendo Co. v. Lektro-Vend Corp., supra, at 645 (Blackmun, J., concurring in result). The word \u201cgenuine\u201d has both objective and subjective connotations. On one hand, \u201cgenuine\u201d means \u201cactually having the reputed or apparent qualities or character.\u201d Webster\u2019s Third New International Dictionary 948 (1986). \u201cGenuine\u201d in this sense governs Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56, under which a \u201cgenuine issue\u201d is one \u201cthat properly can be resolved only by a finder of fact because [it] may reasonably be resolved in favor of either party.\u201d Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U. S. 242, 250 (1986) (emphasis added). On the other hand, \u201cgenuine\u201d also means \u201csincerely and honestly felt or experienced.\u201d Webster\u2019s Dictionary, supra, at 948. To be sham, therefore, litigation must fail to be \u201cgenuine\u201d in both senses of the word.[6]\nWe conclude that the Court of Appeals properly affirmed summary judgment for Columbia on PRE\u2019s antitrust counterclaim. Under the objective prong of the sham exception, the Court of Appeals correctly held that sham litigation must constitute the pursuit of claims so baseless that no reasonable litigant could realistically expect to secure favorable relief. See 944 F. 2d, at 1529.\nThe existence of probable cause to institute legal proceedings precludes a finding that an antitrust defendant has engaged in sham litigation. The notion of probable cause, as understood and applied in the common-law tort of wrongful civil proceedings,[7] requires the plaintiff to prove that the defendant lacked probable cause to institute an unsuccessful civil lawsuit and that the defendant pressed the action for an improper, malicious purpose. Stewart v. Sonneborn, 98 U. S. 187, 194 (1879); Wyatt v. Cole, 504 U. S. 158, 176 (1992) (Rehnquist, C. J., dissenting); T. Cooley, Law of Torts *181. Cf. Wheeler v. Nesbitt, 24 How. 544, 549-550 (1861) (related tort for malicious prosecution of criminal charges). Probable cause to institute civil proceedings requires no more than a \u201creasonabl[e] belie[f] that there is a chance that [a] claim may be held valid upon adjudication\u201d (internal quotation marks omitted). Hubbard v. Beatty & Hyde, Inc., 343 Mass. 258, 262, 178 N. E. 2d 485, 488 (1961); Restatement (Second) of Torts \u00df 675, Comment e, pp. 454-455 (1977). Because the absence of probable cause is an essential element of the tort, the existence of probable cause is an absolute defense. See Crescent City Live Stock Co. v. Butchers\u2019 Union SlaughterHouse Co., 120 U. S. 141, 149 (1887); Wheeler, supra, at 551; Liberty Loan Corp. of Gadsden v.Mizell, 410 So. 2d 45, 48 (Ala. 1982). Just as evidence of anticompetitive intent cannot affect the objective prong of Noerr `s sham exception, a showing of malice alone will neither entitle the wrongful civil proceedings plaintiff to prevail nor permit the factfinder to infer the absence of probable cause. Stewart, supra, at 194; Wheeler, supra, at 551; 2 C. Addison, Law of Torts \u00df 1, \u2202 853, pp. 67-68 (1876); T. Cooley, supra, at *184. When a court has found that an antitrust defendant claiming Noerr immunity had probable cause to sue, that finding compels the conclusion that a reasonable litigant in the defendant\u2019s position could realistically expect success on the merits of the challenged lawsuit. Under our decision today, therefore, a proper probable-cause determination irrefutably demonstrates that an antitrust plaintiff has not proved the objective prong of the sham exception and that the defendant is accordingly entitled to Noerr immunity.\nThe District Court and the Court of Appeals correctly found that Columbia had probable cause to sue PRE for copyright infringement. Where, as here, there is no dispute over the predicate facts of the underlying legal proceeding, a court may decide probable cause as a matter of law. Crescent, supra, at 149; Stewart, supra, at 194; Nelson v. Miller, 227 Kan. 271, 277, 607 P. 2d 438, 444 (1980); Stone v. Crocker, 41 Mass. 81, 84-85 (1831); J. Bishop, Commentaries on NonContract Law \u00df 240, p. 96 (1889). See also Director General of Railroads v. Kastenbaum, 263 U. S. 25, 28 (1923) (\u201cThe question is not whether [the defendant] thought the facts to constitute probable cause, but whether the court thinks they did\u201d). Columbia enjoyed the \u201cexclusive righ[t] . . . to perform [its] copyrighted\u201d motion pictures \u201cpublicly.\u201d 17 U. S. C. \u00df 106(4). Regardless of whether it intended any monopolistic or predatory use, Columbia acquired this statutory right for motion pictures as \u201coriginal\u201d audiovisual \u201cworks of authorship fixed\u201d in a \u201ctangible medium of expression.\u201d \u00df 102(a)(6). Indeed, to condition a copyright upon a demonstrated lack of anticompetitive intent would upset the notion of copyright as a \u201climited grant\u201d of \u201cmonopoly privileges\u201d intended simultaneously \u201cto motivate the creative activity of authors\u201d and \u201cto give the public appropriate access to their work product.\u201d Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc., 464 U. S. 417, 429 (1984).\nWhen the District Court entered summary judgment for PRE on Columbia\u2019s copyright claim in 1986, it was by no means clear whether PRE\u2019s videodisc rental activities intruded on Columbia\u2019s copyrights. At that time, the Third Circuit and a District Court within the Third Circuit had held that the rental of video cassettes for viewing in on-site, private screening rooms infringed on the copyright owner\u2019s right of public performance. Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. v. Redd Horne, Inc., 749 F. 2d 154 (1984); Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. v. Aveco, Inc., 612 F. Supp. 315 (MD Pa. 1985), aff\u2019d, 800 F. 2d 59 (1986). Although the District Court and the Ninth Circuit distinguished these decisions by reasoning that hotel rooms offered a degree of privacy more akin to the home than to a video rental store, see 228 USPQ, at 746; 866 F. 2d, at 280-281, copyright scholars criticized both the reasoning and the outcome of the Ninth Circuit\u2019s decision, see 1 P. Goldstein, Copyright: Principles, Law and Practice \u00df 5.7.2.2, pp. 616-619 (1989); 2 M. Nimmer & D. Nimmer, Nimmer on Copyright \u00df 8.14[C][3], pp. 8-168 to 8-173 (1992). The Seventh Circuit expressly \u201cdecline[d] to follow\u201d the Ninth Circuit and adopted instead the Third Circuit\u2019s definition of a \u201cpublic place.\u201d Video Views, Inc. v. Studio 21, Ltd., 925 F. 2d 1010, 1020, cert. denied, 502 U. S. 861 (1991). In light of the unsettled condition of the law, Columbia plainly had probable cause to sue.\nAny reasonable copyright owner in Columbia\u2019s position could have believed that it had some chance of winning an infringement suit against PRE. Even though it did not survive PRE\u2019s motion for summary judgment, Columbia\u2019s copyright action was arguably \u201cwarranted by existing law\u201d or at the very least was based on an objectively \u201cgood faith argument for the extension, modification, or reversal of existing law.\u201d Fed. Rule Civ. Proc. 11. By the time the Ninth Circuit had reviewed all claims in this litigation, it became apparent that Columbia might have won its copyright suit in either the Third or the Seventh Circuit. Even in the absence of supporting authority, Columbia would have been entitled to press a novel copyright claim as long as a similarly situated reasonable litigant could have perceived some likelihood of success. A court could reasonably conclude that Columbia\u2019s infringement action was an objectively plausible effort to enforce rights. Accordingly, we conclude that PRE failed to establish the objective prong of Noerr `s sham exception.\nFinally, the Court of Appeals properly refused PRE\u2019s request for further discovery on the economic circumstances of the underlying copyright litigation. As we have held, PRE could not pierce Columbia\u2019s Noerr immunity without proof that Columbia\u2019s infringement action was objectively baseless or frivolous. Thus, the District Court had no occasion to inquire whether Columbia was indifferent to the outcome on the merits of the copyright suit, whether any damages for infringement would be too low to justify Columbia\u2019s investment in the suit, or whether Columbia had decided to sue primarily for the benefit of collateral injuries inflicted through the use of legal process. Contra, Grip-Pak, Inc. v. Illinois Tool Works, Inc., 694 F. 2d 466, 472 (CA7 1982), cert. denied, 461 U. S. 958 (1983). Such matters concern Columbia\u2019s economic motivations in bringing suit, which were rendered irrelevant by the objective legal reasonableness of the litigation. The existence of probable cause eliminated any \u201cgenuine issue as to any material fact,\u201d Fed. Rule Civ. Proc. 56(c), and summary judgment properly issued.\nWe affirm the judgment of the Court of Appeals.\nJustice Souter, concurring.\nThe Court holds today that a person cannot incur antitrust liability merely by bringing a lawsuit as long as the suit is not \u201cobjectively baseless in the sense that no reasonable litigant could realistically expect success on the merits.\u201d Ante, at 60. The Court assumes that the District Court and the Court of Appeals were finding this very test satisfied when they concluded that Columbia\u2019s suit against PRE for copyright infringement was supported by \u201cprobable cause,\u201d a standard which, as the Court explains it in this case, requires a \u201creasonabl[e] belie[f] that there is a chance that [a] claim may be held valid upon adjudication.\u201d Ante, at 62-63 (internal quotation marks omitted). I agree that this term, so defined, is rightly read as expressing the same test that the Court announces today; the expectation of a reasonable litigant can be dubbed a \u201creasonable belief,\u201d and realistic expectation of success on the merits can be paraphrased as \u201ca chance of being held valid upon adjudication.\u201d\nHaving established this identity of meaning, however, the Court proceeds to discuss the particular facts of this case, not in terms of its own formulation of objective baselessness, but in terms of \u201cprobable cause.\u201d Up to a point, this is understandable; the Court of Appeals used the term \u201cprobable cause\u201d to represent objective reasonableness, and it seems natural to use the same term when reviewing that court\u2019s conclusions. Yet as the Court acknowledges, ante, at 63, since there is no dispute over the facts underlying the suit at issue here, the question whether that suit was objectively baseless is purely one of law, which we are obliged to consider de novo. There is therefore no need to frame the question in the Court of Appeals\u2019s terms. Accordingly, I would prefer to put the question in our own terms, and to conclude simply that, on the undisputed facts and the law as it stood when Columbia filed its suit, a reasonable litigant could realistically have expected success on the merits.\nMy preference stems from a concern that other courts could read today\u2019s opinion as transplanting every substantive nuance and procedural quirk of the common-law tort of wrongful civil proceedings into federal antitrust law. I do not understand the Court to mean anything of the sort, however, any more than I understand its citation of Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, see ante, at 65, to signal the importation of every jot and tittle of the law of attorney sanctions. Rather, I take the Court\u2019s use of the term \u201cprobable cause\u201d merely as shorthand for a reasonable litigant\u2019s realistic expectation of success on the merits, and on that understanding, I join the Court\u2019s opinion.\nJustice Stevens, with whom Justice O\u2019Connor joins, concurring in the judgment.\nWhile I agree with the Court\u2019s disposition of this case and with its holding that \u201can objectively reasonable effort to litigate cannot be sham regardless of subjective intent,\u201d ante, at 57, I write separately to disassociate myself from some of the unnecessarily broad dicta in the Court\u2019s opinion. Specifically, I disagree with the Court\u2019s equation of \u201cobjectively baseless\u201d with the answer to the question whether any \u201creasonable litigant could realistically expect success on the merits.\u201d[1] There might well be lawsuits that fit the latter definition but can be shown to be objectively unreasonable, and thus shams. It might not be objectively reasonable to bring a lawsuit just because some form of success on the merits\u00f3 no matter how insignificant\u00f3could be expected.[2] With that possibility in mind, the Court should avoid an unnecessarily broad holding that it might regret when confronted with a more complicated case.\nAs the Court recently explained, a \u201csham\u201d is the use of \u201cthe governmental process \u00f3as opposed to the outcome of that process\u00f3as an anticompetitive weapon.\u201d Columbia v. Omni Outdoor Advertising, Inc., 499 U. S. 365, 380 (1991). The distinction between abusing the judicial process to restrain competition and prosecuting a lawsuit that, if successful, will restrain competition must guide any court\u2019s decision whether a particular filing, or series of filings, is a sham. The label \u201csham\u201d is appropriately applied to a case, or series of cases, in which the plaintiff is indifferent to the outcome of the litigation itself, but has nevertheless sought to impose a collateral harm on the defendant by, for example, impairing his credit, abusing the discovery process, or interfering with his access to governmental agencies. It might also apply to a plaintiff who had some reason to expect success on the merits but because of its tremendous cost would not bother to achieve that result without the benefit of collateral injuries imposed on its competitor by the legal process alone. Litigation filed or pursued for such collateral purposes is fundamentally different from a case in which the relief sought in the litigation itself would give the plaintiff a competitive advantage or, perhaps, exclude a potential competitor from entering a market with a product that either infringes the plaintiff\u2019s patent or copyright or violates an exclusive franchise granted by a governmental body.\nThe case before us today is in the latter, obviously legitimate, category. There was no unethical or other improper use of the judicial system; instead, respondents invoked the federal court\u2019s jurisdiction to determine whether they could lawfully restrain competition with petitioners. The relief they sought in their original action, if granted, would have had the anticompetitive consequences authorized by federal copyright law. Given that the original copyright infringement action was objectively reasonable\u00f3and the District Court, the Court of Appeals, and this Court all agree that it was\u00f3neither the respondents\u2019 own measure of their chances of success nor an alleged goal of harming petitioners provides a sufficient basis for treating it as a sham. We may presume that every litigant intends harm to his adversary; moreover, uncertainty about the possible resolution of unsettled questions of law is characteristic of the adversary process. Access to the courts is far too precious a right for us to infer wrongdoing from nothing more than using the judicial process to seek a competitive advantage in a doubtful case. Thus, the Court\u2019s disposition of this case is unquestionably correct.\nI am persuaded, however, that all, or virtually all, of the Courts of Appeals that have reviewed similar claims (involving a single action seeking to enforce a property right) would have reached the same conclusion. To an unnecessary degree, therefore, the Court has set up a straw man to justify its elaboration of a two-part test describing all potential shams. Of the 10 cases cited by the Court as evidence of widespread confusion about the scope of the \u201csham\u201d exception to the doctrine of Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc., 365 U. S. 127 (1961), and Mine Workers v. Pennington, 381 U. S. 657 (1965), see ante, at 55, n. 3, 5 share three important characteristics with this case: The alleged injury to competition was defined by the prayer for relief in the antitrust defendant\u2019s original action; there was no unethical conduct or collateral harm \u201cexternal to the litigation or to the result reached in the litigation\u201d;[3] and there had been no series of repetitive claims. Each of those courts concluded, as this Court does today, that allegations of subjective anticompetitive motivation do not make an otherwise reasonable lawsuit a sham.[4]\nIn each of the five other cases cited by the Court, the plaintiff alleged antitrust violations more extensive than the filing of a single anticompetitive lawsuit. In three of those cases the core of the alleged antitrust violation lay in the act of petitioning the government for relief: One involved the repetitive filing of baseless administrative claims,[5] another involved extensive evidence of anticompetitive motivation behind the lawsuit that followed an elaborate and unsuccessful lobbying effort,[6] and in the third a collateral lawsuit was only one of the many ways in which the antitrust defendant had allegedly tried to put the plaintiff out of business.[7] In each of these cases the court showed appropriate deference to our opinions in Noerr and Pennington, in which we held that the act of petitioning the government (usually in the form of lobbying) deserves especially broad protection from antitrust liability. The Court can point to nothing in these three opinions that would require a different result here. The two remaining cases\u00f3in which the Courts of Appeals did state that a successful lawsuit could be a sham\u00f3did not involve lobbying, but did contain much broader and more complicated allegations than petitioners presented below.[8] Like the three opinions described above, these decisions should not be expected to offer guidance, nor be blamed for spawning confusion, in a case alleging that the filing of a single lawsuit violated the Sherman Act.\nEven in this Court, more complicated cases, in which, for example, the alleged competitive injury has involved something more than the threat of an adverse outcome in a single lawsuit, have produced less definite rules. Repetitive filings, some of which are successful and some unsuccessful, may support an inference that the process is being misused. California Motor Transport Co. v. Trucking Unlimited, 404 U. S. 508 (1972). In such a case, a rule that a single meritorious action can never constitute a sham cannot be dispositive. Moreover, a simple rule may be hard to apply when there is evidence that the judicial process has been used as part of a larger program to control a market and to interfere with a potential competitor\u2019s financing without any interest in the outcome of the lawsuit itself, see Otter Tail Power Co. v. United States, 410 U. S. 366, 379, n. 9 (1973); Westmac, Inc. v. Smith, 797 F. 2d 313, 322 (CA6 1986) (Merritt, C. J., dissenting). It is in more complex cases that courts have required a more sophisticated analysis\u00f3one going beyond a mere evaluation of the merits of a single claim.\nIn one such case Judge Posner made the following observations about the subtle distinction between suing a competitor to get damages and filing a lawsuit only in the hope that the expense and burden of defending it will make the defendant abandon its competitive behavior:\n\u201cBut we are not prepared to rule that the difficulty of distinguishing lawful from unlawful purpose in litigation between competitors is so acute that such litigation can never be considered an actionable restraint of trade, provided it has some, though perhaps only threadbare, basis in law. Many claims not wholly groundless would never be sued on for their own sake; the stakes, discounted by the probability of winning, would be too low to repay the investment in litigation. Suppose a monopolist brought a tort action against its single, tiny competitor; the action had a colorable basis in law; but in fact the monopolist would never have brought the suit\u00f3its chances of winning, or the damages it could hope to get if it did win, were too small compared to what it would have to spend on the litigation\u00f3except that it wanted to use pretrial discovery to discover its competitor\u2019s trade secrets; or hoped that the competitor would be required to make public disclosure of its potential liability in the suit and that this disclosure would increase the interest rate that the competitor had to pay for bank financing; or just wanted to impose heavy legal costs on the competitor in the hope of deterring entry by other firms. In these examples the plaintiff wants to hurt a competitor not by getting a judgment against him, which would be a proper objective, but just by the maintenance of the suit, regardless of its outcome. See City of Gaines- ville v. Florida Power & Light Co., 488 F. Supp. 1258, 1265-66 (S.D. Fla. 1980).\n\u201cSome students of antitrust law would regard all of our examples of anticompetitive litigation as fanciful, and in all the evidentiary problems of disentangling real from professed motives would be acute. Concern with the evidentiary problems may explain why some courts hold that a single lawsuit cannot provide a basis for an antitrust claim (see Fischel, Antitrust Liability for Attempts to Influence Government Action: The Basis and Limits of the Noerr-Pennington Doctrine, 45 U. Chi. L. Rev. 80, 109-10 (1977))\u00f3an issue we need not face here since three improper lawsuits are alleged, and it can make no difference that they were not all against Grip-Pak. Still, we think it is premature to hold that litigation, unless malicious in the tort sense, can never be actionable under the antitrust laws. The existence of a tort of abuse of process shows that it has long been thought that litigation could be used for improper purposes even when there is probable cause for the litigation; and if the improper purpose is to use litigation as a tool for suppressing competition in its antitrust sense, see, e. g., Products Liability Ins. Agency, Inc. v. Crum & Forster Ins. Cos., 682 F. 2d 660, 663-64 (7th Cir. 1982), it becomes a matter of antitrust concern. This is not to say that litigation is actionable under the antitrust laws merely because the plaintiff is trying to get a monopoly. He is entitled to pursue such a goal through lawful means, including litigation against competitors. The line is crossed when his purpose is not to win a favorable judgment against a competitor but to harass him, and deter others, by the process itself\u00f3regardless of outcome\u00f3of litigating. The difficulty of determining the true purpose is great but no more so than in many other areas of antitrust law.\u201d Grip-Pak, Inc. v. Illinois Tool Works, Inc., 694 F. 2d 466, 472 (1982).\nIt is important to remember that the distinction between \u201csham\u201d litigation and genuine litigation is not always, or only, the difference between lawful and unlawful conduct; objectively reasonable lawsuits may still break the law. For example, a manufacturer\u2019s successful action enforcing resale price maintenance agreements,[9] restrictive provisions in a license to use a patent or a trademark,[10] or an equipment lease,[11] may evidence, or even constitute, violations of the antitrust laws. On the other hand, just because a sham lawsuit has grievously harmed a competitor does not necessarily mean that it has violated the Sherman Act. See Spectrum Sports, Inc. v. McQuillan, 506 U. S. 447, 455-459 (1993). The rare plaintiff who successfully proves a sham must still satisfy the exacting elements of an antitrust demand. See ante, at 61.\nIn sum, in this case I agree with the Court\u2019s explanation of why respondents\u2019 copyright infringement action was not \u201cobjectively baseless,\u201d and why allegations of improper subjective motivation do not make such a lawsuit a \u201csham.\u201d I would not, however, use this easy case as a vehicle for announcing a rule that may govern the decision of difficult cases, some of which may involve abuse of the judicial process. Accordingly, I concur in the Court\u2019s judgment but not in its opinion.\n[*] Solicitor General Starr, Acting Assistant Attorney General James, Deputy Solicitor General Wallace, Michael R.

Spears filed a brief for the United States as amicus curiae urging affirmance.\n[1] Section 1 of the Sherman Act prohibits \u201c[e]very contract, combination. . . , or conspiracy, in restraint of trade or commerce among the several States.\u201d 15 U. S. C.\u00df 1. Section 2 punishes \u201c[e]very person who shall monopolize, or attempt to monopolize,or combine or conspire with any other person or persons, to monopolize any part of the trade or commerce among the several States.\u201d\n[2] The Court of Appeals held that Columbia\u2019s alleged refusal to grant copyright licenses was not \u201cseparate and distinct\u201d from the prosecution of its infringement suit.944 F. 2d, at 1528.The court also held that PRE had failed to establish how it could have suffered antitrust injury from Columbia\u2019s other allegedly anticompetitive acts. Id., at 1529. Thus, whatever antitrust injury Columbia inflicted must have stemmed from the attempted enforcement of copyrights, and we do not consider whether Columbia could have made a valid claim of immunity for anticompetitive conduct independent of petitioning activity. Cf. Continental Ore Co. v. Union Carbide & Carbon Corp., 370 U. S. 690, 707-708 (1962).\n[3] Several Courts of Appeals demand that an alleged sham be proved legally unreasonable. See McGuire Oil Co. v. Mapco, Inc., 958 F. 2d 1552, 1560, and n. 12 (CA11 1992); Litton Systems, Inc. v. American Telephone & Telegraph Co., 700 F. 2d 785, 809-812 (CA2 1983), cert. denied, 464 U. S. 1073 (1984); Hydro-Tech Corp. v. Sundstrand Corp., 673 F. 2d 1171, 1177 (CA10 1982); Federal Prescription Service, Inc. v. American Pharmaceutical Assn., 214 U. S. App. D. C. 76, 85, 89, 663 F. 2d 253, 262, 266 (1981), cert. denied, 455 U. S. 928 (1982). Still other courts have held that successful litigation by definition cannot be sham. See, e. g., Eden Hannon & Co. v. Sumitomo Trust & Banking Co., 914 F. 2d 556, 564-565 (CA4 1990), cert. denied, 499 U. S. 947 (1991); South Dakota v. Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc., 880 F. 2d 40, 54 (CA8 1989), cert. denied sub nom. South Dakota v. Kansas City Southern R. Co., 493 U. S. 1023 (1990); Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. v. Redd Horne, Inc., 749 F. 2d 154, 161 (CA3 1984).\nOther Courts of Appeals would regard some meritorious litigation as sham. The Sixth Circuit treats \u201cgenuine [legal] substance\u201d as raising merely \u201ca rebuttable presumption\u201d of immunity. Westmac, Inc. v. Smith, 797 F. 2d 313, 318 (1986) (emphasis added), cert. denied, 479 U. S. 1035 (1987). The Seventh Circuit denies immunity for the pursuit of valid claims if \u201cthe stakes, discounted by the probability of winning, would be too low to repay the investment in litigation.\u201d Grip-Pak, Inc. v. Illinois Tool Works, Inc., 694 F. 2d 466, 472 (1982), cert. denied, 461 U. S. 958 (1983). Finally, in the Fifth Circuit, \u201csuccess on the merits does not . . . preclude\u201d proof of a sham if the litigation was not \u201csignificantly motivated by a genuine desire for judicial relief.\u201d In re Burlington Northern, Inc., 822 F. 2d 518, 528 (1987), cert. denied sub nom. Union Pacific R. Co. v. Energy Transportation Systems, Inc., 484 U. S. 1007 (1988).\n[4] California Motor Transport did refer to the antitrust defendants\u2019 \u201cpurpose to deprive .. . competitors of meaningful access to the . . . courts.\u201d 404 U. S., at 512. See also id., at 515 (noting a \u201cpurpose to eliminate . . . a competitor by denying him free and meaningful access to the agencies and courts\u201d);id., at 518 (Stewart, J.,concurring in judgment) (agreeing that the antitrust laws could punish acts intended \u201cto discourage and ultimately to prevent [a competitor] from invoking\u201d administrative and judicial process). That a sham depends on the existence of anticompetitive intent, however, does not transform the sham inquiry into a purely subjective investigation.\n[5] A winning lawsuit is by definition a reasonable effort at petitioning for redress and therefore not a sham. On the other hand, when the antitrust defendant has lost the underlying litigation, a court must \u201cresist the understandable temptation to engage in post hoc reasoning by concluding\u201d that an ultimately unsuccessful \u201caction must have been unreasonable or without foundation.\u201d Christiansburg Garment Co. v. EEOC, 434 U. S. 412, 421-422 (1978). Accord, Hughes v. Rowe, 449 U. S. 5, 14-15 (1980) (per curiam). The court must remember that \u201c[e]ven when the law or the facts appear questionable or unfavorable at the outset, a party may have an entirely reasonable ground for bringing suit.\u201d Christiansburg, supra, at 422.\n[6] In surveying the \u201cforms of illegal and reprehensible practice which may corrupt the administrative or judicial processes and which may result in antitrust violations,\u201d we have noted that \u201cunethical conduct in the setting of the adjudicatory process often results in sanctions\u201d and that \u201c[m]isrepresentations, condoned in the political arena, are not immunized when used in the adjudicatory process.\u201d California Motor Transport, 404 U. S., at 512-513. We need not decide here whether and, if so, to what extent Noerr permits the imposition of antitrust liability for a litigant\u2019s fraud or other misrepresentations. Cf. Fed. Rule Civ. Proc. 60(b)(3) (allowing a federal court to \u201crelieve a party . . . from a final judgment\u201d for \u201cfraud . . . , misrepresentation, or other misconduct of an adverse party\u201d); Walker Process Equipment, Inc. v. Food Machinery & Chemical Corp., 382 U. S. 172, 176-177 (1965); id., at 179-180 (Harlan, J., concurring).\n[7] This tort is frequently called \u201cmalicious prosecution,\u201d which (strictly speaking) governs the malicious pursuit of criminal proceedings without probable cause. See W. Keeton, D. Dobbs, R. Keeton, & D. Owen, Prosser and Keeton on Torts \u00df 120, p. 892 (5th ed. 1984). The threshold for showing probable cause is no higher in the civil context than in the criminal. See Restatement (Second) of Torts \u00df 674, Comment e, pp. 454-455 (1977).\n[1] Ante, at 60. See also ante, at 62: \u201c[S]ham litigation must constitute the pursuit of claims so baseless that no reasonable litigant could realistically expect to secure favorable relief \u201c; ante, at 60: \u201cIf an objective litigant could conclude that the suit is reasonably calculated to elicit a favorable outcome, the suit is immunized under Noerr . .. .\u201d But see ante, at 62: \u201cThe existence of probable cause to institute legal proceedings precludes a finding that an antitrust defendant has engaged in sham litigation.\u201d And see ante, at 65: \u201cColumbia\u2019s copyright action was arguably `warranted by existing law\u2019 \u201d under the standards of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11. These varied restatements of the Court\u2019s new test make it unclear whether it is willing to affirm the Court of Appeals by any of these standards individually, or by all of them together.\n[2] The Court\u2019s recent decision in Farrar v. Hobby, 506 U. S. 103 (1992) makes me wonder whether \u201c10 years of litigation and two trips to the Court of Appeals\u201d to recover \u201cone dollar from one defendant,\u201d id., at 116 (O\u2019Connor, J., concurring), would qualify as a reasonable expectation of \u201cfavorable relief\u201d under today\u2019s opinion.\n[3] Omni Resource Development Corp. v. Conoco, Inc., 739 F. 2d 1412, 1414 (CA9 1984) (Kennedy, J.).\n[4] See McGuire Oil Co. v. Mapco, Inc., 958 F. 2d 1552 (CA11 1992) (unsuccessful action to enjoin alleged violations of Alabama\u2019s Motor Fuel Marketing Act not a sham); Hydro-Tech Corp. v. Sundstrand Corp., 673 F. 2d 1171 (CA10 1982) (unsuccessful action alleging misappropriation of trade secrets not a sham); Eden Hannon & Co. v. Sumitomo Trust & Banking Co., 914 F. 2d 556 (CA4 1990) (successful action imposing constructive trust on profits derived from breach of nondisclosure agreement not a sham); Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. v.

Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc., 880 F. 2d 40 (CA8 1989) (successful action to enjoin breach of contract not a sham; the court was careful to point out, however, that success does not \u201ccategorically preclude a finding of sham.\u201d Id. , at 54, n. 30).\n[5] Litton Systems, Inc. v. American Telephone & Telegraph Co., 700 F. 2d 785 (CA2 1983), cert. denied, 464 U. S. 1073 (1984). The Second Circuit found that AT&T\u2019s continued filing of administrative tariffs long after those claims had become objectively unreasonable supported a jury\u2019s sham finding. AT&T\u2019s anticompetitive actions were in fact so far removed from the act of petitioning the government for relief that Chief Judge Oakes and Judge Meskill also held, in reliance on Continental Ore Co. v. Union Carbide & Carbon Corp., 370 U. S. 690 (1962), and Cantor v. Detroit Edison Co., 428 U. S. 579 (1976) (plurality opinion), that tariff filings with the Federal Communications Commission were acts of private commercial activity in the marketplace rather than requests for governmental action, and thus were not even arguably protected by the Noerr-Pennington doctrine. Litton Systems, 700 F. 2d, at 806-809.\n[6] Westmac, Inc. v. Smith, 797 F. 2d 313 (CA6 1986), cert. denied, 479 U. S. 1035 (1987). Although the Sixth Circuit did hold that the genuine substance of an anticompetitive lawsuit creates a rebuttable presumption of objective reasonableness, given the facts of that case\u00f3in which the antitrust plaintiff had presented strong evidence that the defendants\u2019 lawsuit, which followed a long and unsuccessful lobbying effort, had been motivated solely for the anticompetitive harm the judicial process would inflict on it\u00f3that modest reservation was probably wise. Evidence of anticompetitive animus in Westmac was in fact so great that Chief Judge Merritt thought that the plaintiff had successfully rebutted the presumptive reasonableness of defendants\u2019 lawsuit. The delay from the defendants\u2019 combined lobbying and litigation attack had allegedly sent the plaintiff into bankruptcy, and memos from one defendant to its attorney had stated, \u201c`If this [lobbying activity] doesn\u2019t succeed, start a lawsuit\u00f3 bonds won\u2019t sell,\u2019 \u201d 797 F. 2d, at 318, and (in a statement repeated to a codefendant), \u201c`if nothing else, we\u2019ll delay sale of the bonds,\u2019 \u201d id., at 322 (Merritt, C. J., dissenting) (emphasis omitted). In any event, the Sixth Circuit rule\u00f3to the extent that it would apply in a case as simple as this one\u00f3would result in the same conclusion we reach here.\n[7] Federal Prescription Service, Inc. v. American Pharmaceutical Assn., 214 U. S. App. D. C. 76, 663 F. 2d 253 (1981), cert. denied, 455 U. S. 928 (1982). In that case, the antitrust plaintiff alleged a 2-decade long conspiracy to lobby, boycott, and sue it (in state licensing boards, state legislatures, the marketplace, and both state and federal courts) out of existence. In spite of those allegations, the Court of Appeals found that the defendant\u2019s actions, which primarily consisted in lobbying for the abolition of plaintiff\u2019s mail-order prescription business, were immune under Noerr-Pennington.\n[8] In Grip-Pak, Inc. v. Illinois Tool Works, Inc., 694 F. 2d 466 (1982) (Posner, J.), cert. denied, 461 U. S. 958 (1983), the antitrust defendant\u2019s alleged violations of several provisions of the Sherman and Clayton Acts included much more than the filing of a single lawsuit; they encompassed a broad scheme of monopolizing the entire relevant market by: purchasing patents; threatening to file many other, patently groundless lawsuits; acquiring a competitor; dividing markets; and filing a fraudulent patent application. In In re Burlington Northern, Inc., 822 F. 2d 518 (CA5 1987), cert. denied, 484 U. S. 1007 (1988), the plaintiffs alleged, and produced evidence to support their theory, that the defendant had filed suit solely to cause them a delay of crippling expense, and the defendants had either brought or unsuccessfully defended a succession of related lawsuits involving plaintiff\u2019s right to compete. In both of these cases the Courts of Appeals ably attempted to balance strict enforcement of the antitrust laws with possible abuses of the judicial process. That they permitted some reliance on subjective motivation\u00f3as even we have done in cases alleging abuse of judicial process, see California Motor Transport Co. v. Trucking Unlimited, 404 U. S. 508, 513-518 (1972)\u00f3is neither surprising nor relevant in a case involving no such allegations.\n[9] Dr. Miles Medical Co. v. John D. Park & Sons Co., 220 U.

        "title": "Striving for power: Chinese foreign policy in Xi Jinping\u2019s \u2018new era\u2019 | The Strategist",
        "raw_content": "13 Nov 2017|Feng Zhang\nPresident Xi Jinping has emerged out of last month\u2019s 19th Congress of the Chinese Communist Party as a new paramount leader of China on a par with Mao Zedong, founder of the People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC), and Deng Xiaoping, engineer of the reform policy that has delivered China\u2019s economic rise. It is an extraordinary measure of his dominance in Chinese politics that he is the first living leader to be named as a guide for the party since Mao died in 1976. With \u2018Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era\u2019 written into the party constitution, he now\u2014along with Marx, Lenin, Mao and Deng\u2014defines the meaning of Chinese Communism. As The Economist puts it, \u2018The congress has consolidated his authority not just for five years but, in effect, for life.\u2019\nWhat does Xi\u2019s new authority mean for Chinese foreign policy during his second term and beyond? Although China doesn\u2019t publish \u2018grand strategy\u2019 documents as such, the general secretary\u2019s report to the party congress, especially its foreign policy section, comes closest to offering a blueprint for future policy. This year\u2019s report is particularly significant because Xi has a once-in-a-generation message to deliver: his judgement that Chinese socialism \u2018has crossed the threshold into a new era\u2019. Declaring that \u2018the Chinese nation now stands tall and firm in the East\u2019 and alluding to the three eras the PRC has gone through, Xi announced that China \u2018has stood up, grown rich, and is becoming strong\u2019, with \u2018brilliant prospects of national rejuvenation\u2019.\nIn this florid statement is the essence of China\u2019s national policy. Its goal is to achieve the \u2018great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation\u2019 from the slough of weakness and humiliation over the past two centuries. The process is spread over three stages\u2014the standing-up stage accomplished by Mao, the growing-rich stage achieved by Deng, and the becoming-strong stage that Xi has now promised to deliver. Offering more specificity in this promise, he proposes two cumulative goals in the becoming-strong stage: realising socialist modernisation in 2020\u20132035 and developing China into \u2018a great modern socialist country\u2019 and \u2018a global leader in terms of composite national strength and international influence\u2019 in 2035\u20132050.\nMake no mistake: Xi is trying to at once write and make modern Chinese history by appealing to several dominant themes of that history. Ever since the mid-19th century when China\u2019s last imperial dynasty suffered from terminal decline, the search for wealth and power has been a fundamental national mission for Chinese elites, and national independence and sovereignty an overriding goal. For Xi, Mao achieved the goal of independence, Deng that of wealth, and now it\u2019s his task to deliver the goal of power\u2014or \u2018composite national strength\u2019 across the political, cultural, diplomatic, economic and military domains. Agreeing with Xi that the mission of power is as historic as those of independence and wealth, the party has no difficulty lining up \u2018Xi Jinping Thought\u2019 with \u2018Mao Zedong Thought\u2019 and \u2018Deng Xiaoping Theory\u2019 in its constitution.\nChinese foreign policy from Xi\u2019s second term on will therefore become a policy of striving for \u2018strong\u2019 or \u2018great\u2019 power, as opposed to Mao\u2019s independence-based or Deng\u2019s wealth-based policy. Notice the significance: Xi is declaring a sharp break with past traditions and proposing a new era for Chinese foreign policy under his command. Ever since the 2000s, analysts have been debating whether Chinese foreign policy has moved beyond Deng\u2019s dictum of \u2018keeping a low profile\u2019\u2014a debate taking on new significance as a result of a more confident or assertive policy during Xi\u2019s first term. Now Xi has resolved this debate by definitively proclaiming the arrival of a new era of foreign policy under the assumption of Chinese power. Although the goal of consummate power is set to be achieved by 2050, Xi has already sentimentally announced the arrival of China as a world power.\nEuphoria and triumphalism are a notable feature of Xi\u2019s report to the 19th Party Congress, perhaps unsurprising for a confident leader consolidating unprecedented power and feeling China \u2018moving ever closer to the world\u2019s center stage\u2019. The reality of Chinese foreign policy, especially in the immediate Asian region, however, is more challenging than acknowledged. Xi has laid out a mesmerising vision\u2014even a grand strategy\u2014for China\u2019s rise to power in this century, but numerous challenges remain. Despite his claim to diplomatic progress on all fronts, China\u2019s position in Asia\u2014a key measure of success\u2014is in fact less than fully secure. Notably, relationships with leading regional powers including Japan and India, and important middle powers including South Korea and Australia, have suffered setbacks or volatility in recent years. And North Korea, a festering problem of the first order, has been costing China a terrible strategic price since the 1990s.\nChinese foreign policy has entered Xi Jinping\u2019s \u2018new era\u2019 of striving for power. Its success will depend on Beijing\u2019s ability to meet various challenges ahead. The first task is to identify the principal contradiction of such a policy and develop appropriate remedies. Will China\u2019s aspiration for greater power come into clash with other countries\u2019 need for their own security and power? In the area of domestic policy, Xi\u2019s report sensibly notes that the new contradiction facing Chinese society has evolved into one \u2018between unbalanced and inadequate development and the people\u2019s ever-growing needs for a better life\u2019. What is the new contradiction of Chinese foreign policy in Xi\u2019s \u2018new era\u2019?\nFeng Zhang is a fellow in the Australian National University\u2019s Department of International Relations and adjunct professor at the National Institute for South China Sea Studies in China.

        "raw_content": "Rethink Autism | High-tech Caregivers Benefits Solutions for Retailers\nDo well by doing good. US businesses are taking this adage attributed to Benjamin Franklin to heart.\nIt\u2019s good business. Happy employees are engaged employees, and that translates into productivity gains and ultimately to happy customers and a better bottom line.\nRetail chains, in particular, are doing the cost-benefit math. They are implementing strategies and adopting new tools to help employees address the single most pressing issue in their lives \u2014 their families. Given its large hourly workforce, no business sector or employee population suffers greater financial and productivity loss when distracted, stressed, or forced to miss work to care for a child or other family member with a developmental disability.\nWith an estimated one in six children diagnosed with developmental disabilities, including autism, chains bear an increasing share of the national productivity hemorrhage of as much as 250 hours of missed work per employee annually.\nThe cost of these lost hours averages $3,000 to $5,000 per year per employee.\nBut what does it cost employers? Billions, according to Gallup research sponsored by Pfizer/Respect a Caregiver\u2019s Time (ReACT) in 2011. Dan Witters, research director of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index estimates, \u201cthat the cost of lost productivity due to absenteeism among full-time workers is more than $25 billion annually.\u201d Add part-time workers and the estimated cost to business climbs exponentially.\nCaregiving is everyone\u2019s burden\nThe Gallup analysis reported at least 17% of all full-time workers in every major socioeconomic and demographic group identify as caregivers. This means the impact on large retailers and chains is not just on the sales floor or in the warehouse, it\u2019s at every level of management.\nOf the 17 percent of US workers Gallup reported as involved in caregiving, 46% were men. High-income households ($90,000-plus) accounted for 15 percent of caregivers; 16% were middle-income households earning between $36,000-$90,000, and 21% reported incomes of less than $46,000. The challenge is systemic.\nWhat are retailers doing to stem the loss?\nThey are paying attention. Increasingly, regional directors, store managers, supervisors, human resources and the C-suite are thinking \u201coutside the box\u201d to identify new ways to support caregiver employees in general and working parents in particular who are caring for children or other family members with developmental disabilities. Like other industries, the goal is simple: Reduce absenteeism and increase productivity.\nSome companies have expanded insurance coverage to, for example, provide access and coverage for home-based, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy services for children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder.\nBut programs like ABA address only a single challenge of the many facing families caring for those autism and are typically not available for families caring for individuals with developmental disabilities. For chains covering far-flung geographies, licensed therapists qualified to do in-home therapy are often unavailable or too costly to offer to part-time or hourly wage employees. Moreover, services like ABA typically are not available 24/7 leaving families stranded in the event of an \u201cunscheduled\u201d crisis.\nTo address the needs of more employees cost-effectively, companies are looking to technology to deliver support to their workforces where they live, where they work, and when they need it.\nCostco Wholesale Corp., for one, is providing employees with a web-based platform that offers easy-to-use training, enables parents to coordinate their child\u2019s care, and provides remote clinical support in-home or wherever the parent needs it.\nSuch tools go a long way to engage and support employees. Employers benefit from reduced turnover, improved productivity, and greater employee commitment.\nFor parents of children with developmental disabilities such as autism, for example, chains like Costco are offering access to:\n1. Tele-health services: Not a specific service, Tele-health covers a variety of technologies and tactics that include counseling and support 24/7. It can include real-time, two-way interaction between a caregiver and, for example, a therapist via phone, computer or tablet, or access to online training videos or peer groups. This type of service may often substitute for in-home counseling when it is not available. Tele-health offers the advantage of scale and access in delivering effective treatment solutions to employees wherever and whenever they need them.\n2. Care coordination services: \u201cIt takes a village\u201d to raise a child and additional support professionals to raise a child with autism or other developmental disability. These care teams typically work independently with little or no communication between them. So employees miss work or extend breaks to coordinate appointments, therapy sessions, and school team meetings.\nTo facilitate the process and minimize employee downtime, employers now offer access to web-based technologies that permit real-time communication and crucial data sharing among their child or dependent\u2019s team members.\n3. Parent-to-parent support services: Fearing stigmatization or even termination, employees often will minimize their issues at home. However, employers must still deal with the fallout when an employee\u2019s care safety net ruptures in the form of increased absenteeism, lowered productivity and poor performance.\nA growing number of chains now offer access to peer-to-peer social networks to support employees and their families, easing their isolation and providing a forum to share best practices and resources. Increasingly, easy and issue-targeted access to relevant online communities and forums is becoming an integral element of benefits programs serving this population.\nRegardless of the economic outlook, productivity matters. Balancing the needs of one\u2019s human capital with the demands of the marketplace is just good business. Success belongs to those companies already investing in or reviewing cost-efficient technologies and services to boost morale, improve presenteeism and foster a more productive, focused workforce.\nMike Civello is VP of employee benefits at Rethink Benefits (www.rethinkbenefits.com), a global health technology provider offering an online solution featuring a comprehensive video-based treatment program, sophisticated behavior intervention planning tools, training for caregivers, individualized assessments, and online skills-based activities for individuals tied to the program.\nPreviousPrevious post:Q5 Named Sunday Times\u2019 Best Small Company to Work ForNextNext post:Avitus Group Set to Hire 80 in Billings",

In fact, she\u2019s spent almost all of her thirty years on the planet searching for something to bring her joy \u2013 and with this new writing class, run by a former NYT author, she\u2019s thinking she just might have found her niche. But, she\u2019s also too worried about her father\u2019s reaction, her step-mother\u2019s constant attempts to \u2018fix her up\u2019 and her Nonna\u2019s struggles with dementia. There\u2019s plenty on her plate \u2013 and it never quite seemed as if she actually spent any time on any one thing with conviction. Cade has returned to take a professorship at the local college: after leaving town for university and never looking back. Now with a three year old daughter, an ex-wife, he status of being a former NYT bestseller whose career exploded spectacularly after his wife\u2019s claims of \u2018stolen ideas\u2019 and his own inability to put words on paper. He\u2019s not only guarded and angry \u2013 he\u2019s frustrated with his mother\u2019s forgiveness of his father, unable to believe that the cruel and offhanded drunken father he knew could hold regrets or be able to do better. Gabby is a breath of fresh air that keeps him intrigued, even as he\u2019s doing everything to ignore that \u2013 despite her coming in to rescue him from mega-tantrums from his daughter. The story here felt unnecessarily complicated with situations that were discussed yet rarely shown, at least not in ways that would engage me emotionally. Sad, as I wanted to like this couple (and Gabby) far more than I did. True areas for growth and development were often hinted at, then dropped and left hanging, only to pop up resolved in later pages \u2013 and the charm of the small town setting, the large, loud families and even the connection that developed more than the electric chemistry was missing and just never appeared for me. I received an eArc copy of the title from the publisher via NetGalley for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review, all conclusions are my own responsibility.\ntiggeruoSO 17 days ago\nWhat a sweet love story. I loved how Gabby has this sweet spirit, she is a strong character who has a big heart and she really seemed so relatable. I really enjoy how it was important to find herself and her mom's legacy. I was not a huge fan of Caden, sometimes you like him sometimes you don't. I get he had some hard times but in my opinion he just seemed like he couldn't get his stuff together. I really loved Ava, her sweet personality just jumped off the pages and it was hard not to just fall in love with her. Overall I really enjoyed this sweet love story. There is some sex scenes in this book, so it may not be suitable for all readers. I honestly have enjoyed reading this series and can not wait to read Rafe and Kaitlyn story. I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley. I was under no obligation to post a review and have given my honest opinion.\narubaqueen 17 days ago\nMiranda Liasson never disappoints!! Cade is a divorced dad with custody of his daughter who decides to move back to his hometown to get a steady job to support her. He is an author but despite having a contract for another book, he just can't seem to write. Gabby is a lawyer who is taking a class to help her with her passion...writing. The way these 2 meet is quite funny. They are attracted to each other and even though they both realize it, neither thinks they want a relationship. They both have suffered losses in the relationship department so they have much to overcome to get to their HEA. This is the 2nd book in the series but is very easily read as a standalone. I read an ARC and am voluntarily leaving my review.\n_NormaJean 10 days ago\nGabby Langdon is a people pleaser. She became a lawyer to please her father. What she really wants to do is write books. She enrolled in a college writing class hoping to learn enough to enable her realize her dream of writing. Caden Marshall is her writing professor and author of one successful book. He is suffering from writer\u2019s block and took the teaching job to support his little daughter, Ava. He is divorced from Ava\u2019s mother, a self-centered wanna be author, who gave up custody of her little girl and only sees her when the mood strikes her. Cade is just trying to work and take care of his daughter until he is able to write again. He doesn't have any intention of getting romantically involved with anyone. So begins a somewhat contentious relationship between Gabby and Cade. Cade tries to keep the professor/student relationship on a professional level. Gabby...not so much. I enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a sweet romance. I would give it 10 stars if it was possible. I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.\nGabriella (Gabby) Langdon has lost her sparkle and is trying to reset her life. Fresh off a breakup, having just made partner at a law firm, and wanting to become an author, her life is full\u2026full of busy days, full of trying to make people proud and keep them happy, and full of trying to get people to stop setting her up. She just wants to start another chapter of her life, so she enrolls in a writing class at the college. Single dad, author and professor Caden Marshall, is completely focused on his sweet daughter, Ava. He has writer\u2019s block after a disastrous backstabbing by his ex-wife claiming he stole her ideas for his book. He has just taken a position at the college teaching a writing class.

While it\u2019s a steady job, it\u2019s not what Caden really longs to do. Caden is author who made the best seller\u2019s list, but now has serious writer\u2019s block. After being accused of stealing his ex\u2019s ideas for his novel, he\u2019s not sure writing is in the cards for him anymore. So he does the next best thing by teaching writing at the college. His daughter, Ava, being his main focus. Gabby Langdon is a successful attorney who doesn\u2019t really want to be an attorney. Gabby, the whimsical one in her family, has tried just about everything. As a people pleaser, Gabby wants to make everyone happy. She became an attorney because her dad wanted her to follow in his footsteps, do something that was steady. What Gabby really wanted to do, was write. So she enrolls in a nighttime writing class at the area college. Where she instantly clashes and is equally attracted to her professor, Caden... Miranda Liasson hits it out of the park with this one! This novel is the second in the series, but can definitely be read without reading the first novel. This story is about having the courage to jump off that cliff and go after your dreams. Sometimes that means confronting the past, letting go, and going for it. It\u2019s scary, but you\u2019d regret it if you didn\u2019t go for it. It\u2019s also about making yourself happy, regardless of what other people think. Be you! Love yourself enough to do what\u2019s best for you, then all the other pieces will fall into place. I absolutely it! I read a gifted copy and all opinions stated are my own.\nJennieF 16 days ago\nARC for honest review with no compensation received by NetGalley. The Way You Love Me is book 2 in the Angel Falls series by Miranda Liasson and another well written and great addition to this series. Gabby Langdon is a bored but successful attorney who has always been about pleasing others ... while deep down she wants to be a writer so she decides to take a writing class at her hometown college taught by best selling author Caden Marshall. What she doesn\u2019t expect is the chemistry and sparks between them! Caden on the other hand only wants to have a steady income for raising his daughter after the scandal that rocked his world and has writers block to boot. Can these two keep things neutral or will the chemistry be to much and they both loose what may come to be the most important relationship in their lives?.\nD-does-reviews 16 days ago\nI really enjoyed book 2 in the Stay series by Miranda Liasson because it has everything I look for when I want to lose myself in a great romance. I was emotionally drawn to Gabby\u2019s close knit family who have experienced the loss of their mother, the second marriage of their father and are now sharing care taking duties for their beloved grandmother who has Alzheimer\u2019s Disease. Having lost my father to Alzheimer\u2019s it was easy to feel a great deal of empathy for this wonderful family. The sexual tension between Gabby, and her love interest Cord, is absolutely delicious and I so enjoyed the antics of Cord\u2019s 3 year old daughter Ava. My favorite thing about this book is the small town setting of Angel Falls which is loosely based on my small town! It was a real pleasure to read all about the shops on Main Street, the falls on the Chagrin River and the Blossom Festival which is held every year on the weekend before Memorial Day. What more could a romance fan ask for? I read a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley and all opinions expressed in my voluntary review are completely my own.\nteachlz 16 days ago\nLinda\u2019s Book Obsession Reviews \u201cThe Way You Love Me\u201d by Miranda Liasson Miranda Liasson , Author of \u201cThe Way you Love Me\u201d has written a delightful, charming, emotional and heartwarming novel. The Genres for this book are Fiction, Women\u2019s Fiction, Contemporary Fiction, and Romance. The timeline for this story is set in the present. The author describes her characters as each having their own expectations and set of problems to deal with. Gabby Langdon has just become an attorney, and yet wants more. One of her secret wishes is to become a writer just like her late mother. To make that wish a reality, Gabby enrolls in a writing course at night. Caden Marshall is a writer, but has a serious writer\u2019s block. He also has to provide for his young daughter Ava. Caden takes a position to teach writing. On the first night of the class, Caden hurries and takes a parking spot that Gabby was about to take. Literally, that is how the two of these characters meet. There are definitely sparks at this moment. Gabby is a strong -willed and determined young woman. Caden is a stubborn, and responsible man. Is there a chance there can be something more? You will have to read the book to find out. I appreciate that the author discusses the importance of family, friends, communication,honesty, forgiveness, second chances, love and hope. I would recommend this enjoyable book to readers who enjoy romantic stories. I received an ARC from NetGalley for my honest review.\nHeather_P 17 days ago\nThis book has some cursing (including a few f-bombs) and a couple of sex scenes but neither of those things overwhelmed the story. If those things bother you, they're easily skipped over or ignored. While this is the second book of a beautiful series, you don't have to read the first book to enjoy this one \u2013 it totally stands alone. All that said, you should read Then There Was You because it is so great. Miranda Liasson is one of my very few one-click authors because her books are all written with such a tremendous amount of humor, heart, and the kind of characters that make me crave more of them. The Way You Love Me is one of those books that ticks all of my \u201chappiness\u201d boxes. This story had an adorable meet-cute (which I won't spoil but it's pretty hilarious), and a well-written plot that made it hard for me to put down. If you like a book that is laced with subtle humor, you'll love Miranda Liasson's writing \u201cvoice\u201d. Her wry but hilarious way of telling a story a story is incredibly captivating. I identified with Gabby in a lot of ways, so I was fully invested in her story and whether she'd figure out what she wanted to do with her life. Watching her grow into her own was awesome, and I loved the way she figured herself out. The ties that Gabby had with her late mother, and the discoveries she made about her family history were intriguing and I couldn't stop reading once the plot started to really unravel \u2013 I needed to know everything! I also really adored Cade and I just wanted the two of them to figure out how to have their happily ever after because these just two belonged together. Now, in the interest of full disclosure, Cade is kind of a tool during the aforementioned meet cute, but he was also a stupidly charming tool. Like Gabby, I was smitten with him from the start. Even when he was flawed throughout the book, he was still a great guy who just wanted the best for Gabby and more importantly, for his daughter, Ava. Cade was an amazing father who would have done anything to keep Ava happy and healthy, and I loved his devotion to her. There is nothing sexier than a man who adores his daughter. And speaking of Ava, she was wonderful. So often kids in books are written more little adults or obnoxious brats, but Ava was absolutely adorable. I loved the way that she and Gabby bonded so organically and so beautifully. Thanks to all of the foreshadowing, I am really, really looking forward to Rafe's story. I want to gush about all of the things I'm looking forward to in that, but I don't want to spoil anything. I cannot wait for that book!\nSarahBethL 17 days ago\nThis is the 2nd book in the Angel Falls series & just like the first book in the series I really enjoyed this one. Cade is a great single father who wants to do the best for his little girl. He was more broody when it was just him but when he was with his daughter he was a completely different person. I loved the interactions with him & Ava. I also enjoyed Gabby, who was tired of trying to please everyone and decided to take a class on writing. I liked the interactions between Gabby & Cade as both had some growing & learning to do.\nTerri_C 17 days ago\nSusanmc81 17 days ago\nI received an ARC of this book from NetGalley for my honest review. This is the second book in the Angel Falls series and it centers around Gabby Langdon and Caden Marshall. Gabby is a bit of a lost soul, she flitted from one major to another until she settled on becoming a lawyer to please her father. She was engaged to a successful, but narcissistic guy, because she thought that was the type of man she should marry. Now, she is thirty, single and in a job that doesn\u2019t make her happy. She has always wanted to write, so she decides to take a creative writing course taught by famous author, Caden Marshall. Cade is a bit of a mess. While he had a successful debut novel, he has all sorts of issues contributing to his writer\u2019s block. Both Gabby and Cade are likable, yet flawed characters and the pacing of the love story is realistic. I loved that Gabby and Cade had to work through their issues to get to their happily ever after. This book also has a nice set up for Rafe and Kaitlyn\u2019s story.\nbook_junkee 17 days ago\nI hadn\u2019t read anything from this author, but the reviews on NG were so high, so I took a chance. Gabby and Cade were just okay. I liked that she wanted to learn different things and that\u2019s probably the best thing I can say. Their relationship lacked chemistry and passion and there was a lot of telling, not showing. Cade\u2019s daughter was the easily brightest spot in the story. Plot wise, it was just meh. There wasn\u2019t any real show of time movement, so it seemed like they had been hanging out for a very short while before the ending and proposal. Too many threads of plot made for something more convoluted than it needed to be and in that, nothing felt fleshed out. Overall, I liked the small town setting and the idea of the angel fountain, but sadly, I was mostly disappointed. I doubt I\u2019ll be reading any others in this series. **Huge thanks to Forever for providing the arc free of charge**\nLashea677 18 days ago\nthriller awards b n outlet\nbook by sara richardson\nwoman at 1,000 degrees\nFOURTEEN-CARAT FORTUNE It\u2019s like a page ripped from her diary when Christine Briscoe finds herself ...\nFOURTEEN-CARAT FORTUNE It\u2019s like a page ripped from her diary when Christine Briscoe finds herself dancing with Gavin Fortunado at his sister\u2019s wedding.

Under this regime the Economy Minister was Jose Alfredo Martinez de Hoz whose neoliberal economic platform sided along to anti-labor, monetarist policies and financial liberalization. As a result of this regime, Argentina accumulated a $45 billion foreign debt. This lead interest rates to exceed trade surpluses, unemployment to increase and higher inflation rates. In 1985 a democracy was reestablished once President Raul Alfonsin was elected. Alfonsin\u2019s government intended to stabilize the economy by establishing the austral, a new currency. However, this was unsuccessful because the government could not continue to fund its debts. The cost of utility increased significantly as real wages fell by almost half, increasing uncertainty across the country and causing inflation to increase from \u201c200% a year in 1988 to 5,000% in 1989\u201d (Brooke).\nHowever, the economy improved once elected\u2026\nTable of Contents Introduction Argentina before its Great Depression of 1998-2002\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026...\u20261 Stages of a financial crisis of Argentina\u2019s emerging economy Initiation of the crisis\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u20262 Currency crisis\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026...\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..4 Full fledged financial crisis\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..\u2026\u2026.6 Results\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..6 Closing Remarks \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.6 Introduction Argentina before its Great Depression in 1998-2002\u2026\nArgentina 's Turbulent History Of Economic Crisis\nArgentina\u2019s turbulent history of economic crisis are often attributable to government mismanagement and fluctuating commodities prices, which have resulted in the millions to live below the poverty line.

        "raw_content": "Defining Poverty Of New Zealand\nDefining poverty in New Zealand\nNew Zealand lacks an \u2018official\u2019 definition of poverty and internationally, is not alone in its failure to do so. However, there is in certain OECD countries, definitions that could be adjusted and refined to define poverty within a New Zealand context, and we should in the first instance, adopt Ireland\u2019s model for that purpose.\nDefining poverty is a consensual and contextual process difficult to achieve from the subjective view alone as everyone has their own ideas on what characterises poverty. Objective empirical analysis is useful only if the correct markers are identified and these can still be subjective because we can arbitrarily choose which markers to focus on. Furthermore, the importance or relevance of certain social conditions and social interactions will vary across groups and sub-groups and between individuals within those groups. Also, traditional use of income as the sole measure of poverty, at least in developed countries, no longer provides a definitive answer as the focus on equality and other social values become part of the formula. If we can\u2019t define and measure poverty, we can\u2019t fix it.\n\u2018Poverty, the state of one who lacks a usual or socially acceptable amount of money or material possessions. Poverty is said to exist when people lack the means to satisfy their basic needs. In this context, the identification of poor people first requires a determination of what constitutes basic needs.\u2019 Encyclopaedia\u2026\nThe Poverty Of New Zealand\nYou would like to believe that New Zealand, a well-developed country, is a great place for children to live. For most of us that is true however there is still a concerning amount of children who live in poverty. Since the late 1980\u2019s and early 1990\u2019s there has been an increase in child poverty of around 15 percent (Boston, 2014). Currently the New Zealand government spends up to ten billion dollars a year on attempting to solve child poverty and yet still as many as 25 percent of children, which\u2026\nChild Poverty in New Zealand\nChild poverty is a major and complex issue that New Zealand faces today. The degree is far more severe than the public's perception and it is a problem that we cannot afford to ignore.

This occurs partly due to social construction and it is potentially avoidable.

The definition of poverty has important implications from point of view of policy making, politics and academic debates. Each view has its own value judgments and explanations.

In today\u2019s society, men are being discriminated against through the media, suffering from parental custody discrimination, being discriminated against in the courtroom and even for their choice of career. BBC reporter David Benatar said that, \u201cthe second sexism is that across the world men are more likely to be conscripted into the military, be victims of violence, lose custody of their children and take their own lives\u201d (Castella, 2012).

So either way men are being asked to contribute more than women, whether he has sole custody of his children or not.\nMen are being denied custody of children even though studies have shown that growing up fatherless can affect the brains of children. Dr Gabriella Gobbi of McGill University in Montreal said that the main impacts of growing up in a fatherless home were seen in the prefrontal cortex of the brain. She had also said that \u201cgrowing up without a father could permanently alter the structure of the brain and produce children who are more aggressive\u201d (Spencer, 2013). Men also do not stand a chance at getting custody even if they are the primary caregiver of the child. \u201cWhen the man is the primary caregiver his chances of winning custody are lower than when the woman is the primary caregiver\u201d (Castella, 2012). The odds of winning custody are stacked firmly against the fathers and pretty much handedto the mothers.

He believed that every social structure existed only because it satisfied a specific social need. Additionally, it was Durkheim\u2019s desire to delineate how sociology would be used and considered and to give it the tools of scientific methodology (Vissing, 2011). To integrate the tools of science with the theory of functionalism Durkheim examined how social structures integrated with social living.

However, the members of this type of society become tied to each other through a reciprocal relationship because of the specialization of the tasks assigned to each individual (Durkheim, \u00c9. & Simpson, G., 1949).\nAs a population of a society increases, the individuals within that society are able to maintain their social relationships amongst themselves because the concept of organic solidarity allows for the expansion of tasks within the division of labor of that society. Although the individuals of the increasing population within the society do not consciously expand those tasks in the division of labor, it is forced upon them because of that increasing population, and the speed at which those tasks expand is proportional to the rate of population increase. Thus as Durkheim postulates a civilization in not a product of the division of labor in a society it is a direct resultant of the expansion of tasks in the division of labor in relationship to the increase of the population of that society.\nWhile Emile Durkheim postulates that the Division of Labor forms solidarity within a society the dynamic and material density of a society are positively correlated, and as population increases, survival requires a greater division of\nThe Contributions of Emile Durkheim Essay\nwell-known field of study until Emile Durkheim, a college professor, made sociology a part of the French college curriculum.

Emile Durkheim was born on April 13, 1958\u2026\nDurkheim 's Theory Of The Division Of Labor\nIn book one of The Division of Labour, Durkheim sets out to determine the role of the division of labor, something universal that he prefaces as seemingly straightforward to identify. Moving forward, however, in contrast with the groundwork laid out by Adam Smith, Durkheim shows that it is not as simple as one would suspect. Adam Smith assigns the division of labor the function of bearing the fruits of civilization. This, Durkheim notes, renders the division of labor neutrally moral, since there\u2026\nEmile Durkheim And Karl Marx\nThe division of labor is a complex phenomenon that is characterized by varying aspects of an individual\u2019s social connection to the society in which they reside. The Division of labor is a broad process that affects and influences many aspects of life such as political, judicial, and administrative functions (Bratton & Denham, 2014).

Thus, a task such as providing food can be carried out almost totally by one individual or can be divided among many people .The latter pattern typically occurs in modern societies;cultivation,processing,distribution and retailing of a single food item are performed by literally hundreds of people.

It was used extensively by Native Americans as evidenced by significant artifacts found during an archaeological dig conduced after Indiantown came under BRLT protection. Extensive shell middens were excavated as well as centuries old remains indicating that the island also became an important base for local fishermen in the colonial period. The island was used for farming in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Rachel Carson, who summered nearby, wrote of her particular love for this magical place and its abundant wildlife. Shore birds such as herons and ospreys, owls and eagles, songbirds, deer and small mammals make Indiantown their home.\nOver the years there were occasional schemes for building a bridge to Indiantown from the mainland and creating a seasonal development. Fortunately an anonymous donor as well as other supporters made it possible in 1995 for BRLT to acquire the northern 27 acres. About the same time, BRLT was also granted an easement over the remaining southern 33 acres.

        "raw_content": "One of 2002\u2019s Top Jury Verdicts Settled\nApril 26, 2004 | Staff | Serious Injuries, Automotive\nA lawsuit that resulted in a $122 million verdict against General Motors in 2002 \u201cone of the ten largest that year\u201d was settled this month as attorneys prepared for new trial in the case.\nPlaintiff\u2019s counsel Jere Beasley said the settlement was confidential.\nIn May 2002, a jury in Bullock County, Ala., returned a $122 million verdict against GM for a collision that left Jeffrey Jernigan with severe brain damage. The verdict \u201cwhich was automatically cut to $82 million because of a state law limiting punitive damages\u201d was one in a series of big judgments cited by business groups concerned about Alabama\u2019s judicial system. (See \u2018GM Slammed With $122M Head Injury Verdict,\u2019 Lawyers Weekly USA, Jan. 6, 2003. Search words for LWUSA Archives: Jernigan and Bowden.)\nIn February 2003, the Alabama Supreme Court overturned the award because of problems with jury selection and ordered a new trial was scheduled to begin on April 12.\nThe case stemmed from a two-vehicle collision on Dec. 10, 1999. Jernigan, then 12, was riding in the front seat of a 1993 Oldsmobile Delta 88 with his seatbelt on when the passenger compartment of the car collapsed around him.\nIn the lawsuit, the boy\u2019s father, Bullock County Circuit Clerk Wilbert Jernigan, contended GM\u2019s product was defective and dangerous.\nIn the settlement, GM admitted no liability.\n\u201cWe stand behind the performance of the vehicle,\u201d GM spokeswoman Brenda Rios said.\nBeasley said the boy, now 16, is estimated to need $10 million in care for the rest of his life.\n\u201cOur goal was to make sure the boy was taken care of,\u201d he said.",

John Lennon produced the session, with Paul McCartney playing guitar and George Harrison on tambourine.\nWhile at IBC Lennon saw a Mellotron for the first time. The sampled recordings that came pre-loaded with the instrument had been taped at the studio in 1964. Impressed with the instrument, Lennon immediately ordered one of his own, which was delivered to his home in Weybridge on 16 August 1965.\nThe Silkie's version of You've Got To Hide Your Love Away was released in the UK on 10 September 1965 as Fontana TF 603. It reached number 28 in the charts.\nThe single fared better in the United States. Issued as Fontana 1525, it peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.

        "title": "Bed Bug Blog | The Season of Bed Bugs | BedBug Central",
        "raw_content": "Before we discuss why let\u2019s talk about what has been observed. A few years ago I conducted a quick analysis of data provided to me from pest control companies all across the country and noted a significant increase in services for bed bugs in July, August and September. This trend did change by region and in your more tropical areas of the US you would see a less significant seasonal increase with bed bugs (probably because it\u2019s warmer year-round). In the past few years several other researchers have also noted the trend and because of this the summer months have been coined \u201cthe bed bug season\u201d.\nSo, why? The knee-jerk reaction is to say that it\u2019s warmer in the summer and we know bed bugs reproduce faster in warmer conditions and that must lead to the increase in activity in the summer months. In short, I agree with that thought but seeing that bed bugs are an interior pest shouldn\u2019t temperatures in a home be fairly consistent year-round thus making population growth more consistent? In my opinion, yes and no.\nI do think that air conditioning and temperature regulation can slow population growth, but research has suggested that it doesn\u2019t take a huge difference in temperature to create a huge difference in bed bug reproduction. An older study conducted by C. G. Johnson in the UK in 1941 demonstrated that at 64oF bed bugs could go from an egg to adult in 60 days compared to only 14 days at 82oF. Not only do bed bugs reproduce faster in warmer temperatures but they also move and spread more rapidly. In the Northeast many keep their homes at 66oF in the winter and 74oF in the summer. That 8 degree difference could be significant in regards to bed bug reproduction and movement. If you then look at homes that don\u2019t have air conditioning present, the difference in winter versus summer temperatures could be significant and even more so during heat waves. These warm temperatures in homes without air conditioning could lead to huge population explosions as well as the rapid movement of bed bugs.\nOK, so the season of bed bugs is upon us\u2026.what does it mean to you? Obviously you should take measures and be aware of bed bugs year round. That being said if it\u2019s the summer it means that if you live in a community where you know bed bugs are present in apartments or homes you may want to keep a closer eye on the situation inside your home. If you\u2019re traveling, know that the incidence of bed bugs may be slightly higher than normal. If your child is off to summer camp, know that bed bugs can exist at camp and you may want to pay close attention to what friends they may be bringing home with them. So it\u2019s not that you shouldn\u2019t be aware of bed bugs year round\u2026.just know that in the summer they may be looking to make new friends more than other times of the year. Everyone enjoys a summer crush\u2026.right?\nIf you are traveling this summer please note that we do offer bed bug travel kits in our store to help you avoid sleeping with bed bugs, and our in-home bed bug detection kits are also available for purchase.

The offspring develops from an unfertilized egg. Parthenogenesis may be classified based on the sex of the offspring: (1) arrhenotokous parthenogenesis (or arrhenotoky), (2) thelytokous parthenogenesis (or thelytoky), and (3) deuterotokous parthenogenesis (deuterotoky). The arrhenotoky is a form of parthenogenesis in which the unfertilized eggs develop into males. In contrast, thelytoky is a form of parthenogenesis in which unfertilized eggs develop into females. Deuterotokous parthenogenesis (deuterotoky) is one in which the unfertilized eggs may develop into males and females. Thelytoky occurs in invertebrates (e.g. arthropods) but less common in vertebrates. Some vertebrates that are capable of thelytoky include certain salamanders, fish, and reptiles (i.e. some whiptail lizards).\nAutomictic parthenogenesis is a form of thelytoky. Automictic parthenogenesis is characterized by the involvement of meiotic division in contrast to apomictic parthenogenesis that does not involve meiosis. Since meiosis takes place in automictic parthenogenesis, the egg is haploid. Diploidy in egg is restored by fusion, which may be by central fusion (i.e. the fusion of the first division non-sister nuclei) or by terminal fusion (i.e. the fusion of the second division sister nuclei).\nWord origin: Greek th\u0113lys (\"female\" ) + t\u00f3k(os) (\"offspring\")\nRetrieved from \"https://www.biology-online.org/dictionary/index.php?title=Thelytoky&oldid=103090\"",

        "raw_content": "The avalanche of disclosures about sexual abuse over the past few years means institutions like the BBC, Hollywood and the Church have come under fire for a culture of enabling and collusion, for turning a blind eye when they should have been shouting from the rooftops. But the first institution most of us know is the family, where there are no policies to review, no codes of conduct to draw up and no disciplinary procedures to follow.\nMy new play Elephant is inspired by my lived experience of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and the experiences of many survivors of CSA who I know. Set in the aspirational suburbs, it's the story of a modern British family and the unravelling of a secret. As a piece of art, it's heavily fictionalised. However, it's important to point out that it's rooted in the truth of what I've felt, what I've learned and observed.\nI won't go on about the crushing horror that CSA is. You can imagine the abomination of grooming, the shock, the betrayal, the mess that's left in a child's head having been targeted by an adult. What we hear much less about is disclosure and the aftermath. Because for many survivors, once you tell those close to you what happened, their reaction is not what you'd expect. The same people who express disgust when they open the Metro and read about Jimmy Saville or Harvey Weinstein often react very differently when they learn about CSA in their own families. Survivors are faced with denial, fury for not staying quiet and many are ostracised because it's frankly easier to remove the problem than be reminded of it. Drowning in the silence can feel like being abused again.\nI'm lucky to have a voice as a playwright. A way of being heard that many others don't have, moreover the theatre offers the artist a captive audience. I've always been interested in the theatrical space as an arena for provocation. A chance to jolt and activate, to encourage people to question and challenge what they think they know.\nSecrecy is the currency of the abuser and shame is what we are all left with when a transgression occurs and nobody says anything. By breaking this silence, I hope Elephant is a piece of activism, a liberation that might help others to open up and for communities to acknowledge that their lack of engagement is a both a collusion and an emotional corrosion.\nI have been involved with Solace Women's Aid over the past few years and I know firsthand that the work such organisations do can bring immense changes to women's lives. I am delighted that after its run at Birmingham Repertory Theatre, Elephant will be touring community venues in and around the West Midlands and service users from local women's organisations will hopefully come and see the show.\nWhile centred on a family, Elephant is also about a wider community. The tension between what people say they are and who they actually are. It explores a structure that is built on untruths where the characters' values are at odds with their belief systems. Under this kind of pressure, it's hard to bear what is unbearable, so people choose to accept what is unacceptable. I have tried to make sense of what is unfathomable and sought to have compassion, because it is my job as a dramatist to dig deep into heart and soul.\nAlthough my play is written, I don't know how this story ends. But if we keep breaking the silence, eventually people will have to listen.",

        "raw_content": "What happens if you cannot meet child support obligations?\nOn behalf of Law Office of Barbara Graham, LLC on Wednesday, September 19, 2018.\nA Missouri divorce will have serious financial implications for your life, and sometimes, these changes can impact your life for years to come. It can be difficult to manage financial issues after divorce, and sometimes, they may impact your ability to pay child support. When your financial circumstances change, you can feel overwhelmed and unsure of the most appropriate course of action.\nOne option for you includes the ability to seek a modification to your existing support order. This is a legal change to your existing child support order, which can make it easier for you to make payments without problems or issues. There are certain requirements you must meet in order to be eligible for this type of change to your custody plan.\nWhen is a change necessary?\nSecuring a change to your support order is about much more than just wanting to pay less. Some reasons why parents may need to adjust their support order include the following:\nJob loss or reduction in income\nRemarriage or move\nBirth of additional children\nChildren have fewer financial needs\nIf you think you have grounds to seek a modification, it is smart to seek guidance regarding this potential legal option and the steps you need to take to secure changes.\nHow do I get a modification?\nYou and your ex-spouse may agree that a change to your support payments is necessary, even if only for a temporary basis, but there is more involved than a verbal agreement. You will have to file a petition, and a court will have final say over whether or not you can modify your order.\nIt is possible to seek temporary modifications on the basis of emergency financial circumstances. If you need a change, it is prudent to take immediate action to find out what you can do and how you can proceed.\nYour parental rights do not hinge on your ability to make child support payments. Meaning, if you cannot meet your support obligations, this does not allow the other parent the right to refuse to allow you to have your rightful custody and visitation time.\nProtecting your rights can start with a complete evaluation of your case. This can allow you to know the specific options available to you and how you can move forward with the most appropriate course of action. Dealing with support matters can be complex, but you do not have to face it alone.",

        "title": "History & Customs of New Year - Blog - Bluestone Wales",
        "raw_content": "History and Customs of the New Year\nWith December \u2013 and with it, 2010 as a whole - slipping away like sand through our fingers, it\u2019s time once again to welcome Terry John for another seasonal sojourn through the pages of history.\nNow that Christmas is over, we can all relax a little \u2013 the annual orgy of giving and receiving gifts, sending cards, eating and drinking far too much is over for another year. There is just the New Year\u2019s Eve booze-up to look forward to and once that is over we can slump back into the usual routine.\nFor our ancestors, though, the New Year celebration was more important than the Christmas one. They knew that it marked a turning point; the immediate past, with all its problems, worries and responsibilities was being left behind. A different, unknowable future lay ahead and if, you were wise, you did everything you could to ensure that the New Year began in as favourable a way as possible.\nAll existing debts were paid off, otherwise you might be haunted by debt for the next 12 months. Neither did you lend or borrow, in case that set the pattern for the coming year. Even your behaviour on the first day of January determined your future behaviour, so if you were late in clambering out of bed, you would be lazy every day afterwards and that would affect your prosperity.\nThe New Year was therefore a time of divination and omens \u2013 people wanted to know what was in store for them and their families. Good or bad luck could be brought into the house by the first person to call at New Year. In Pembrokeshire it was bad luck for a man to see a man first thing or for a woman to see a woman. The Christian name of the first visitor was also important; Dafydd, Ifan and Sion were lucky men\u2019s names as were Sian, Marged and Mair for women, but you really didn\u2019t want to encounter someone whose names began with the letters T or W, as they foretold Trouble and Worry.\nEach of the Twelve Days of Christmas was thought to represent the corresponding month of the year, so people studied the weather each day as a guide to the coming year \u2013 if the first day of Christmas was wet, then so would January be wet, and so on.\nIn the past, it was much more usual for gifts to be given on New Year\u2019s Day than at Christmas. This was known as calennig (New Year\u2019s Gift) and began early in the morning and continued until midday. In many Pembrokeshire parishes, groups of children would make their way from door to door to wish the inhabitants health and prosperity for the coming year. The children each carried an apple or an orange stuck with grains of corn, symbolising good fortune. Sometimes the apple was also decorated with oats, raisins, flour and sprigs of box or rosemary tinted with gold paint.\nAt each of the houses they visited, the children would chant a verse:\nMi godais heddiw ma\u2019s o\u2019m ty\nA\u2019m cwd a\u2019am pastwn gyda mi,\nA dyma\u2019m neges ar eich traws,\nSef llanw\u2019m cwd a bara a chaws.\n(I came today out of my house with a bag and sticks, my errand here is to fill my bag with bread and cheese.)\nNot surprisingly, the bag soon became filled with pieces of cake, fruit, nuts and coins.\nAnother well-loved Pembrokeshire custom \u2013 and one recently revived at Bluestone as part of a plan to re-establish some of the ancient local traditions \u2013 was New Year\u2019s Water. Early on New Year\u2019s morning, groups of boys would visit a spring or well in their neighbourhood and draw from it enough water to fill a wooden bowl. The bowl, decorated with ribbons, was carried from house to house and a sprig of holly, box or rosemary was used to sprinkle every person met along the way. If the group was invited into a house, every room was blessed in the same way, and even the doors of the houses that were closed to them were splashed. It was important to recite the correct verse whilst sprinkling the New Year\u2019s Water:\nFor to worship God with, this Happy New Year;\nWith seven bright gold wires, the bugles that do shine ;\nOpen you the west door and turn the old year go;\nOpen you the east door and let the new year in.\nThe verse and the custom may date back to the medieval period. The \u2018fair maid\u2019 could be the Virgin Mary and the words \u2018levy dew\u2019 may be a corruption of the Welsh phrase llef I Dduw - (cry to God).\nThe Christmas celebrations came to an end on 6th January, just as they do today \u2013 although in some areas they continued until the Festival of St Mary of the Candles, 2nd February. Decorations were taken down and the Yule Log, which had been put on the fire at the beginning of the festivities, was removed. The ashes were carefully stored away, as they were thought to keep away all harm. A small portion was added to the seed corn when it was sown in the fields in the Spring in order to ensure that the next season\u2019s crops grew fruitfully.\nOne famous tradition was the Mari Lwyd custom. This rather terrifying custom involved a horse\u2019s skull decorated with coloured ribbons, with thick bottle glass for the eyes. The skull was mounted on a pole five foot long or more in length and a white sheet was hung from it. What made it even more scary was that the lower jaw of the skull was fixed on a spring and the man who carried the whole contraption, and who was hidden under the sheet, could open and shut the jaw with a loud snapping sound.\nIn St Davids an old canvas sheet was sown up to represent the head of a fantastic creature, with huge buttons for eyes and a pair of old harvesting gloves for ears. A pitchfork stuck into the head enabled it to be turned in all directions and many a sleepy citizen of St Davids received a mighty shock when the monster\u2019s head was thrust through the open bedroom window.\nAs the Mari Lwyd processed through the streets it was accompanied by the music of fiddles and by people dressed in a variety of costumes, with their faces blackened. At each house, the leader tapped upon the door and verses were sung or recited. When invited in, the women of the household were kissed and chased around. There was singing and dancing, drinking and eating before the Mari Lwyd staggered off to the next household.\nTwelfth Night was marked by the making of special cakes and by the drinking of wassail. This special concoction, also drunk at Christmas, was made from spiced wine, ale and honey and was drunk from a bowl with looped handles, decorated with ribbons. In some areas of Wales, the bowl was filled first with layers of baked apples, cakes and sugar, over which the liquid was then poured. Once all the alcohol had been drunk, the cakes could be eaten.\nAnother Twelfth Night custom practised in Pembrokeshire was the tradition of the Wren House. A wren or other small bird was placed in a specially made and decorated miniature house and this was carried in procession through the village to the accompaniment of carols. (A Wren House made in 1869 at Marloes, near Haverfordwest, can be seen in the Museum of Welsh Life at St Fagan\u2019s, Cardiff.)\nIn Tenby four men carried the Wren House on a platform, chanting verses as they went, calling at various houses along the way. It wasn\u2019t wise to turn the procession away if they knocked at your door, as they would then sing out;\nGwynt frralwm ddelo\u2019n hwthwm\nI droi\u2019r ty a\u2019I wyneb fyny.\nMay a raging wind come suddenly to turn the house upside down.",

Taking his place alongside Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard, he surpassed football legends such as Fowler, Keegan, Owen, Smith, Carragher and Hansen. Ian Rush is quite simply Liverpools greatest goalscorer and, along with Jimmy Greaves and Denis Law, one of the finest natural penalty-box predators the game has ever seen. This is the story of a rough-edged Welsh teenager thrust into the ranks of an already great side, who didnt feel up to it, but who learned how to grow as a player and a man until he became the most devastating finisher in English football. Rushs story is bursting with honesty and insight, emotional turmoil and tragedy, and hilarious tales and asides. It is a near-mythical tale of triumph and tragedy. Of an era when Liverpool FC became nigh on invincible, made the League title their own, and rode the highs of European and FA Cup Finals alongside the devastating tragedies of Heysel and Hillsborough. The drama of Rushs time at Liverpool during the 80s - the decade that defined the club more than any other - is thrillingly captured in this autobiography, which takes you into the thick of the action, as well as offering a frank and insightful analysis of football today.\nTitle Rush Height\nAuthor Ian Rush Width",

        "title": "Boys Town: Saving Children, Healing Families, Parenting Tips | During WWII, Boys Town housed Japanese-Americans escaping forced internment. The homes are coming down, but the story endures",
        "raw_content": "During WWII, Boys Town housed Japanese-Americans escaping forced internment. The homes are coming down, but the story endures\n\u200bThis article is written by Blake Ursch, World-Herald staff writer. It was published on Omaha.com on June 26, 2017.\nUntil recently, a handful of small, white homes surrounded a tree-shaded cul-de-sac amid farmland west of Boys Town \u2014 a picture of the midcentury American Dream.\nThe scene, now visible to those driving near 144th Street and West Dodge Road, looks very different today. Trees are now stumps, heaped in the middle of the street. The homes have been reduced to piles of concrete, splintered wood and twisted metal. Some are leveled entirely, and others are smoldering ruins after controlled burns conducted last week by the Boys Town Fire Department.\nThe houses and surrounding buildings are giving way to a $1.2 billion entertainment, residential and retail district, currently being developed by Noddle Cos. Some pieces of the other structures will be incorporated into the new development. But the homes are to be cleared.\nThey were simple dwellings built for simple reasons. The homes were completed in the early 1940s, meant to house extra hands who would be needed to work the farm as Boys Town grew. In later years, they were home to children and caregivers on campus. After a time, they stood empty.\nBut hidden in their past is another story. Decades ago, shortly after they were finished, these homes would come to represent something important \u2014 security, comfort, welcome \u2014 for a group of people who had all three taken from them.\nDuring World War II, some of these houses sheltered Japanese-Americans escaping forced internment on the West Coast. They came here at the urging of legendary Boys Town founder Father Edward Flanagan, who found them jobs on campus or helped them establish new lives in cities outside of Omaha.\nIn total, more than 200 relocated Japanese-Americans spent time at Boys Town during the war, said Tom Lynch, director of community programs at Boys Town. Some were just passing through, moving on to other opportunities. About 30 stayed on campus, living and working as barbers, bus drivers, farmhands, typists and gardeners.\nAfter the war, some remained at Boys Town or settled elsewhere in Omaha. Their children and grandchildren still live here today.\n\"Boys Town was good to (my father) and our family, so we just stayed there,\" said Roger Oshima, 61. His father, Mike Oshima, came to Boys Town during the war and worked there in various roles \u2014 a carpenter, a locksmith, captain of the fire department \u2014 for more than 50 years.\nBut Mike Oshima had a life before he came here. He was a commercial fisherman in Long Beach, California.\nThen, on Dec. 7, 1941, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. And Mike Oshima's life, along with those of about 120,000 other Japanese-Americans on the West Coast, would change forever.\n\"Instructions to all persons of Japanese Ancestry,\" begins a flyer dated May 3, 1942. \"Pursuant to the provisions of Civilian Exclusion Order No. 33 ... all persons of Japanese Ancestry, both alien and non-alien will be evacuated from the above area by 12 o'clock noon, P.W.T. Saturday, May 9, 1942.\"\nThe forced internment of Japanese-Americans living on the West Coast was signed into law by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt on Feb. 19, 1942. Those affected were moved to temporary assembly centers, and later to 10 War Relocation Camps in seven states, allowed to bring only what they could carry. Families were registered and given tags to identify themselves and their possessions.\nMike Oshima and his family were moved to the Manzanar War Relocation Center in California. In later years, he never talked much about his experience, his son said. When he did, he spoke of having his fishing vessels confiscated and of knowing he would most likely never return to his home in California. Before he left for Manzanar, he later said, he grabbed an ax, entered his home and destroyed the place.\nIn Los Angeles, James and Margaret Takahashi had begun to worry.\n\"After Pearl Harbor ... people were getting angrier. You kept hearing awful rumors. You heard that people were getting their houses burned down. And we were afraid that those things might happen to us,\" Margaret later wrote.\nThe family, including the couple's three children, would be forced to an overcrowded, makeshift detention center at the Santa Anita racetrack in Arcadia, California. Eventually, they were moved to a camp in Amache, Colorado.\nFor many families, it was an agonizing, confusing experience.\n\"We didn't feel Japanese. We felt American. That was the way we were raised,\" Margaret Takahashi wrote.\nStories like these didn't sit well with the priest in Omaha.\n\"I see no disaster threatening us because of any particular race, creed or color,\" Flanagan said around this time. \"But I do see danger for all in an ideology which discriminates against anyone politically or economically because he or she was born into the 'wrong' race, has skin of the 'wrong' color or worships at the 'wrong' altar.\"\nAnd so, as the internment began, Flanagan began to work with a Catholic organization in Los Angeles, the Maryknoll Fathers, to bring people out of the internment camps to Boys Town. His motives were practical as much as they were altruistic: Many on his staff had left to join the war effort, and Flanagan needed new workers to oversee the 400 boys on campus.\nHe wrote letters to the War Relocation Authority, outlining his open positions. To secure their release, Flanagan had to prove that any Japanese-Americans at Boys Town would be legitimately employed, and therefore supervised.\n\"They were basically on parole,\" Lynch said.\nOn an order form issued by the relocation department for a farmhand, Flanagan lists housing available: \"If man is married, there will be an eight-room completely modern house. Electricity and water bills will be paid for. His salary will be $100 per month.\"\nThe homes described, those currently being demolished, were brand-new, Lynch said. And they may have seemed like palaces to someone coming from Manzanar, where detainees slept in stiflingly hot barracks, or from Santa Anita, where there were 30 people to every one shower.\nBy the end of 1943, there were 10 Japanese-Americans living at Boys Town. More would come later.\nMike Oshima arrived in Omaha in 1944. The previous year, he had seen an advertisement for a laborer position and persuaded camp authorities to recommend him to Flanagan.\nThe Takahashis also arrived after James wrote to Flanagan. James, a professional gardener and landscaper, was made supervisor of the grounds. He wrote back to other Manzanar detainees and, with Flanagan's help, brought 20 others to Boys Town.\nNot everyone supported Flanagan's efforts. One of the biggest critics was Los Angeles Mayor Fletcher Bowron.\nBowron thought one man in particular was too dangerous to be let out of the camps. That man, Patrick Okura, was a psychologist who had been a personnel examiner for the City of Los Angeles before being forced out of a job and into a filthy room at Santa Anita. Newspapers accused Okura of being a spy.\nFlanagan wrote to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover about Okura's case: \"Either these people are guilty of subversive activities ... or they are not. If not \u2014 they are trying to be decent American citizens.\"\nOkura eventually was allowed to go to Boys Town and helped more than 200 more detainees leave the internment camps.\nThough many arrived at Flanagan's campus, only a few dozen stayed. Those that did were sheltered, somewhat, from the racial tensions that were flaring in other parts of the country. They celebrated weddings, like that of Ray and Barbara Uchiyamada in 1944. They tended victory gardens. The boys who exhibited prejudice against their new neighbors, Lynch said, were quickly reprimanded.\nOff campus, Omaha generally was more tolerant of Japanese-Americans than other parts of the country at the time, said Kimi Takechi, 99, who moved here before the war, in 1937.\n\"They were very good to us,\" Takechi said of city residents. \"There was very little bad feeling that we could feel.\"\nFlanagan helped those passing through Boys Town find jobs elsewhere, often in the Midwest, Lynch said, which the government probably considered less vital to national security than the West Coast.\nSome, like Katsu Okida, went on to serve in the 442nd Infantry Regiment, composed almost entirely of soldiers with Japanese ancestry.\nOkida was killed in 1944. Flanagan wrote his family in Colorado, telling them that a special Mass would be said at Boys Town in his honor.\nThe West Coast reopened to Japanese-Americans in early 1945. The following year, President Harry Truman officially terminated the War Relocation Authority.\nBut by that time, many who were forced out were reluctant to return, having built lives in other places.\nThe Takahashis returned to California in 1947. Margaret didn't want to leave, she later wrote, but her husband \"wanted to be his own boss.\"\n\"The evacuation did change our philosophy,\" she wrote. \"It made you feel that you knew what it was to die, to go somewhere you couldn't take anything but what you had inside you. And so it strengthened you.\"\nOkura worked as a psychologist at Boys Town for 17 years. He served as a psychologist for the State of Nebraska until 1970, when he moved to the Washington, D.C., area to take a job at the National Institutes of Health. He would become a civil rights leader, fighting for the rights of Japanese-Americans.\nBefore he left Nebraska, he founded the Omaha chapter of the Japanese American Citizens League. The group still serves as common ground for Omahans of Japanese ancestry, helping them connect and celebrate their cultural traditions.\nMike Oshima retired from Boys Town in 1998, after raising his family on the grounds. He served under three more executive directors after Flanagan's death in 1948.\n\"My dad was very loyal to Boys Town,\" said Oshima's daughter, Terry Burdett. \"He appreciated the opportunities Father Flanagan gave him.\"\nToday, there are few remnants of Omaha's link to the internment. Soon the last traces of the homes in the cul-de-sac will also be gone.\nBut those who know the story don't need them to remember.",

It was the adoption of the Bristol engine, originally developed by BMW before the war for the BMW 328 and recovered by the English for war damages, that gave its letters of nobility to the car.\nThe AC Bristol is very rare as only 446 models were built with this engine and they were very often used as a race car during the weekends.\nIt was this car that was the basis of the famous AC Cobra when Caroll Shelby suggested to add a big V8 in order to be able to beat Ferrari on the race circuits, but that\u2019s another story\u2026\nThis car, the BEX 278 chassis, was delivered new to the United States, which was by far the largest market for AC at that time, and has spent most of its life there. It had a full restoration down to the chassis at Ashcraft restoration in the US about twenty years ago. This first restoration was thoroughly documented. The mechanics were also completely restored, all while strictly respecting the configuration of when it left the factory in 1957. It has participated in several events since, including the historic Mille Miglia. This AC Bristol has a certificate of origin from AC Carts and a FIA passport guaranteeing eligibility for the most prestigious automotive events.\nIt was brought to France by an amateur who maintained it well, and from whom we bought it in 2018.\nWe have just recently restored it to perfect condition by repainting it in the characteristic AC Bristol green and reupholstering the seats.",

        "raw_content": "I live with my mom and go to my dad's on Friday's and come back either Sunday or Saturday, usually Saturday. Up until about two years ago, I was OK with the agreements. That all changed with, you know, the 'Becoming a teenager' and that kind of stuff parents say. I started feeling like I never got enough time with my dad.\nBecause I never really spent time with my dad, the relationship is kind of awkward and odd. He treats me like I'm a nine-year-old who is going to get lost if he wanders like ten feet away or is like 20 feet in front of him on a bike trail. And I'm fifteen and have my permit. It's time for him to stop doing that. I don't know, but it's real annoying.\nMy basketball games are a different scenario. Sometimes he comes, sometimes he doesn't. Usually, he doesn't, because of work, or it's too icy, or whatnot. In the past I would get really upset when he didn't come. But that stopped last year at the beginning of my eighth-grade year. I was done crying over him not coming. Now, I don't really even tell him that I have a game. One, because I don't want to hear his bull---t apology. Two, it just for some reason gets my hopes up higher.\nA year and a half ago, my stepmom started having problems with alcoholism. He divorced her. I was happy, but yet upset. I was happy because I never liked her. It's not that she was like the evil stepmother like in Cinderella. She was nice, but I didn't like her. Now my dad and his girlfriend, Brenda, have been living together. I like Brenda like a lot. She's really nice. But if they were to ever get married, I couldn't go. Not because of like: \"You're too young to go\" or something. I mean like I couldn't bring myself to go.\nAfter going to [my dad's first remarriage] and after years of thought, I decided that if he were to get married again that I wouldn't go. I couldn't go through with it again, no matter what. Even if he begged.\nI know that being married only twice is a small number compared to some kids' parents each being married like five times, but they still hurt the same. I don't know why it would be so hard. It just is. Not to sound like a seven-year-old, though. It's because I've seen it once and had my hopes up, but I don't want that to happen again: Get my hopes up high and have them fall twice as low as before.\nI don't talk to my dad about problems or anything. Actually, I don't really talk to my mom about them either unless it just blurts out in front of my mom. What I do is sometimes talk to professional counsellors in one-on-one chat rooms, because it's anonymous. Sometimes I talk to my younger cousin, who is very understanding. Occasionally, my older cousin, and besides that, my friends.\nRelated Posts: In The Best Interest Of The Child, Basics About Child Custody, At Home With Divorce (Custody), 3 custody schedules to help you manage after divorce",

        "title": "Top 5 Mastering Plug-ins for Pro Tools",
        "raw_content": "Top 5 Mastering Plug-ins for Pro Tools\nDigital Audio / By Kristina Dems / Digital Audio Editing Software Reviews and Guides\nAvid Pro Tools may be one of the most advanced professional audio and music software in the world, but it can\u2019t have everything. Good thing that you can use plug-ins to enhance its existing functions or add more according to your needs and skills. Here are several wtih different purposes that you can use to in conjunction with your existing feature set.\nThis plug-in is specifically designed for accurate modeling of automatic gain reduction devices. This means it provides full control of the volume of any source of sound. You can use it to compress sounds in three different modes: Unique, Ratios and Harmonic Distortion. This array of compression modes allows for a wide range of colorations and sound variations. It is ideal for music applications but it can also lend itself well to other types of audio material such as voice recordings or post production for films. Aside from this set of features, this plug-in also offers a clean and visually appealing user interface that harks back to vintage audio equipment. You can buy this cross-platform Pro Tools plug-in for $594.95.\nAntares Auto-Tune Evo Pitch Correcting Plug-in\nMany of today\u2019s top pop hits contain auto-tuned voices, and this element is not limited to professional music productions. In fact, this pitch-correcting technology is available to everyone. One strong option for an auto-tune plug-in is this one offered by Antares. You get two modes of applying pitch correction with this plug-in. First, you can specify the scale that the plug-in will use in detecting the pitch of the input audio. It will then automatically apply pitch correction that matches the specified scale pitch. If you want to be more involved in the pitch correction, you can use the Graphical Mode, which gives you full control of all the elements that determines pitch. This mode comes with an intuitive user interface that allows for a smoother workflow. You can get it for $249.\nWaves Restoration\nThis plug-in is actually a collection of five noise reduction tools. This toolset is aimed at protection and restoration of recordings, so it is ideal if you are working on deteriorating audio on vinyl or tape or if you are trying to protect recordings so they might have longer lives. The tools included in this set are Z-Noise, X-Noise, X-Hum, X-Click and X-Crackle. These tools are designed to reduce or completely remove all types of noise including background audio as well as rumbling vibrations caused by recording equipment or nearby objects. You can buy this suite of tools for $880.\nLike the Restoration plug-in, the SSL 4000 Collection plug-in is also a collection of tools. It includes four plug-ins modeled after the SSL 4000 Series consoles. These plug-ins are the SSL E-Channel, the SSL G-Equalizer, the SSL G-Master Buss Compressor and the G-Channel.\nThe SSL E-Channel is modeled after the Solid State Logic 4000-series console, which is considered one of the greatest soundboards in the world. The SSL G-Equalizer is modeled after the SSL G Series EQ292 and it offers greater gain change and a broader Q that makes it possible for more radical equalization possibilities. The SSL G-Master Buss Compressor is modeled after master buss compressor of the SSL 4000 G console, which offers a unique sound. Finally, the G-Channel brings all of the dynamic and equalization controls offered by the different SSL G Series consoles into one user interface that is highly convenient. You can buy this suite of plug-ins for $520.\nBoasting legendary bass tones, this plug-in offers a unique high-quality bass sound that can only come from the people that invented bass amplification in the first place. The plug-in features multiple amps, stomps, cabinets and tuners that allows for up to 24 bass amp combinations. Eight classic bass effects are also included, so you can have a more unique and attention-grabbing bass sound. Its modeling capability is backed up by DSM technology that offers over 20 bass gear emulations. It is designed to be easy enough to use even for beginners, thanks to its intuitive user interface. You can buy it for $129.99.\nThese five mastering plug-ins for Pro Tools range from specific sound amplification or removal to full sets of controls that are modeled after some of the most popular and trusted sound mixing boards used by professionals. They give you more options and tools in mixing and mastering music whether you are recording audio or working on post-production tasks for films or music albums.\nBH Photo Video: https://www.bhphotovideo.com\nAntares Tech: https://www.antarestech.com\nWaves: https://www.waves.com\nIK Multimedia: https://www.ikmultimedia.com\nScreenshots from respective websites provided by the writer\nKnow Your Microphone: A Photo Gallery of Microphones for Every Need\nPhoto Gallery of the 15 Best Digital Audio Workstation\nGuide to AmpliTube 3: Free Amp Modeling Software\nA Comprehensive Guide to Soundtrack Pro Tutorials\nTips for Monitoring in Pro Tools and Creating a Headphone Mix\nPro Tools Tutorial: Session Backup",

        "raw_content": "Russian-born actor\nAlternative Titles: Taidje Khan, Yuliy Borisovich Bryner\nYul Brynner, original name Yuliy Borisovich Bryner, (born July 11, 1920?, Vladivostok, Far Eastern Republic [Russia]\u2014died October 10, 1985, New York, New York, U.S.), Russian-born stage and film actor who was known primarily for his performance as the Siamese monarch in The King and I (1956).\nDid Duchess Anastasia Survive Her Family\u2019s Execution?\nFind out what really happened to the youngest daughter of Russia\u2019s last tsar.\nBrynner was prone to exaggeration and invention, causing much uncertainty about his life, especially his childhood. He notably stated that he was born on Sakhalin Island in Russia and that his father was from Mongolia and his mother was a Romanian Roma. However, a 1989 biography by his son revealed that Brynner was born in Vladivostok, a city in what was then Far Eastern Republic. According to that book, Brynner\u2019s father was an engineer of Russian and Swiss descent and his mother was Russian. While Brynner was still young, his father left the family, and they moved to China before settling in France. There, a teenaged Brynner became a nightclub balladeer and then a trapeze artist.\nIn the early 1940s Brynner settled in the United States, where he soon drifted into acting with a touring company. He made a successful Broadway stage debut in 1941, appearing in William Shakespeare\u2019s Twelfth Night. He acted in several other stage productions, and from 1949 to 1953 he occasionally worked as a television director. During this time he became a U.S. citizen.\nBrynner\u2019s breakthrough came when he was offered the role of the arrogant king of Siam in the Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein musical The King and I, for which he won immediate acclaim. He became known for his resonant voice, charisma, and shaved head. From 1951 to 1954 Brynner gave 1,246 performances on Broadway as King Mongkut and then starred in the 1956 screen version, winning an Academy Award for best actor. He went on to give a total of 4,625 performances of the part, taking his last curtain call as the Siamese king in 1985.\nBrynner also had starring roles in other major films, such as The Ten Commandments and Anastasia (both 1956), The Brothers Karamazov (1958), and The Magnificent Seven (1960). He continued to appear on the big screen into the mid-1970s.\nIn addition to his acting career, Brynner was a noted photographer, and he wrote Bring Forth the Children: A Journey to the Forgotten People of Europe and the Middle East (1960), which included some of his pictures. He also published a cookbook. In the 1960s Brynner, who was then living in Switzerland and had obtained Swiss citizenship, renounced his U.S. citizenship.\nAnatole Litvak: Later films\n\u2026of a con man (Yul Brynner).

        "raw_content": "Alternative Title: Dame Zaha Mohammad Hadid\nZaha Hadid, in full Dame Zaha Hadid, (born October 31, 1950, Baghdad, Iraq\u2014died March 31, 2016, Miami, Florida, U.S.), Iraqi-born British architect known for her radical deconstructivist designs. In 2004 she became the first woman to be awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize.\nHadid began her studies at the American University in Beirut, Lebanon, receiving a bachelor\u2019s degree in mathematics. In 1972 she traveled to London to study at the Architectural Association, a major centre of progressive architectural thought during the 1970s. There she met the architects Elia Zenghelis and Rem Koolhaas, with whom she would collaborate as a partner at the Office of Metropolitan Architecture. Hadid established her own London-based firm, Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA), in 1979.\nIn 1983 Hadid gained international recognition with her competition-winning entry for The Peak, a leisure and recreational centre in Hong Kong. This design, a \u201chorizontal skyscraper\u201d that moved at a dynamic diagonal down the hillside site, established her aesthetic: inspired by Kazimir Malevich and the Suprematists, her aggressive geometric designs are characterized by a sense of fragmentation, instability, and movement. This fragmented style led her to be grouped with architects known as \u201cdeconstructivists,\u201d a classification made popular by the 1988 landmark exhibition \u201cDeconstructivist Architecture\u201d held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.\nHadid\u2019s design for The Peak was never realized, nor were most of her other radical designs in the 1980s and early \u201990s, including the Kurf\u00fcrstendamm (1986) in Berlin, the D\u00fcsseldorf Art and Media Centre (1992\u201393), and the Cardiff Bay Opera House (1994) in Wales. Hadid began to be known as a \u201cpaper architect,\u201d meaning her designs were too avant-garde to move beyond the sketch phase and actually be built. This impression of her was heightened when her beautifully rendered designs\u2014often in the form of exquisitely detailed coloured paintings\u2014were exhibited as works of art in major museums.\nFirst built projects\nHadid\u2019s first major built project was the Vitra Fire Station (1989\u201393) in Weil am Rhein, Germany. Composed of a series of sharply angled planes, the structure resembles a bird in flight. Her other built works from this period included a housing project for IBA Housing (1989\u201393) in Berlin, the Mind Zone exhibition space (1999) at the Millennium Dome in Greenwich, London, and the Land Formation One exhibition space (1997\u201399) in Weil am Rhein. In all these projects, Hadid further explored her interest in creating interconnecting spaces and a dynamic sculptural form of architecture.\nVitra Fire Station, Weil am Rhein, Germany, by Zaha Hadid, 1989\u201393. Richard Bryant\u2014Arcaid/Alamy\nHadid solidified her reputation as an architect of built works in 2000, when work began on her design for a new Lois & Richard Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati, Ohio. The 85,000-square-foot (7,900-square-metre) centre, which opened in 2003, was the first American museum designed by a woman. Essentially a vertical series of cubes and voids, the museum is located in the middle of Cincinnati\u2019s downtown area. The side that faces the street has a translucent glass facade that invites passersby to look in on the workings of the museum and thereby contradicts the notion of the museum as an uninviting or remote space. The building\u2019s plan gently curves upward after the visitor enters the building; Hadid said she hoped this would create an \u201curban carpet\u201d that welcomes people into the museum.\nHadid, ZahaZaha Hadid. James Winspear\u2014VIEW Pictures/Alamy\nStardom and controversies\nIn 2010 Hadid\u2019s boldly imaginative design for the MAXXI museum of contemporary art and architecture in Rome earned her the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Stirling Prize for the best building by a British architect completed in the past year. She won a second Stirling Prize the following year for a sleek structure she conceived for Evelyn Grace Academy, a secondary school in London. Hadid\u2019s fluid undulating design for the Heydar Aliyev Center, a cultural centre that opened in 2012 in Baku, Azerbaijan, won the London Design Museum\u2019s Design of the Year in 2014. She was the first woman to earn that award\u2014which judges designs in architecture, furniture, fashion, graphics, product, and transportation\u2014and the design was the first from the architecture category. Her other notable works included the London Aquatics Centre built for the 2012 Olympics; the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, which opened in 2012 at Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan; and the Jockey Club Innovation Tower (2014) for the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.\nBaku: Heydar Aliyev CentreThe Heydar Aliyev Centre, Baku, Azerbaijan; it was designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, London.

Her supporters contended that she was often subjected to controversies that her male counterparts were not. Her fantastic forms were often derided, and the expense and scale of many of her commissions were frequently ridiculed. Indeed, the problematic site for the London Aquatics Centre forced Hadid to scale back her design, while mounting protests, notably from preeminent Japanese architects, led her to scrap her plan altogether for the New National Stadium for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. Further controversy followed after a 2014 report disclosed that some 1,000 foreign workers had died because of poor working conditions across construction sites in Qatar, where her Al Wakrah Stadium for the 2022 World Cup was set to break ground. When asked about the deaths, Hadid objected to her responsibility as an architect to ensure safe working conditions, and her remarks were widely regarded as insensitive. An architecture critic of The New York Review of Books exacerbated the situation when he falsely claimed that 1,000 had died building her stadium, which had yet to break ground. Hadid filed a defamation lawsuit against the critic and publication. She later settled, accepting an apology and donating the undisclosed sum to a charity protecting labour rights.\nOther projects and notable awards\nHadid taught architecture at many places, including the Architectural Association, Harvard University, the University of Chicago, and Yale University. She also worked as a furniture designer, a designer of interior spaces such as restaurants, and a set designer, notably for the 2014 Los Angeles Philharmonic production of Mozart\u2019s Cos\u00ec fan tutte.\nAt her sudden death from a heart attack while being treated for bronchitis in 2016, Hadid left 36 unfinished projects, including the 2022 World Cup stadium, the Antwerp Port House (2016), and the King Abdullah Petroleum Studies and Research Center (2017; KAPSARC) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Her business partner, Patrik Schumacher, assumed leadership of her firm, assuring the completion of existing commissions and the procurement of new ones.\nIn addition to the Pritzker Prize and the Stirling Prize, her numerous awards included the Japan Art Association\u2019s Praemium Imperiale prize for architecture (2009) and the Royal Gold Medal for Architecture (2016), RIBA\u2019s highest honour. Hadid was a member of the Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica Editorial Board of Advisors (2005\u201306). In 2012 she was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE).\nJohn Zukowsky The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica\nCincinnati: The contemporary city\n\u2026a new building designed by Zaha Hadid.

        "raw_content": "\u201cParticipating in the Run Walk, we get to honor my mom and something she believed in.\u201d\nPriscilla Lobretto, Employee\nMy mom, Norma, volunteered for Bronson for over 10 years. She had many roles, but her favorite was in the NICU as a baby rocker.\nShe just plain loved children and she really had an eye and the love for those babies. NICU babies come into the world not fully grown, they might have family challenges, and she really found it was a place where she could pour out her love where it was most needed. My mom felt like the NICU was a place where she could be a constant for those babies who had families who weren\u2019t there, or couldn\u2019t be there. Mom came as much as possible to make sure that those babies got as much love as they needed.\nWe lost my mom in April of 2015, a few months before her 80th birthday, which would have been in September that year. Losing her was extremely difficult, but we quickly found several ways to honor her and her passions. When she passed, we had all donations go toward the Bronson Health Foundation that supports Bronson Children\u2019s Hospital.\nOn top of that, several family members and friends participate in the Bronson Children\u2019s Hospital 5K Run Walk every year. With it being in September, it is a way we can celebrate her, her birthday, and do something that she loved \u2013 supporting children who need it most. Now, three years later, it continues to be a family tradition. Norma\u2019s Tigers, our team name, always has a really great turnout, and I think that just really goes to show the love that my mom sewed for everyone she knew.\nParticipating in the Run Walk, we get to honor my mom and something she believed in. Children don\u2019t ask to be sick, to be born early. They\u2019re so innocent, and they need that help and extra love. This gives each of us a way that we can give back to the children, and it gives all of us an excuse to do something positive together every year.

        "raw_content": "The offence is made out if the appellant invites, counsels or incites a person under the age of 16 to touch directly or indirectly any person's body, for a sexual purpose. The touching may be with a part of the body or with an object and the body touched may be the appellant's or any other person's, including the complainant, if it is for a sexual purpose. The offence is made out when the invitation, counselling or inciting occurs, not when the touching occurs, if at all.\nThe word \"incite\" is in common usage and it is sufficient that the appellant \"in some manner, recommended or suggested\" that the act take place. The conduct does not itself have to be imminent. The two individuals do not have to directly touch each other, as the touching may be indirect. Indeed, there does not need to be any touching at all for the offence to be made out. However, in order to establish that the accused \"incited\" the complainant, the Crown must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there was some positive conduct by the accused, not just passive acquiescence.\nAn example of a successful defence to the charge can be found in the case of R. v. Rhynes. The complainant repeatedly tried to get the accused to engage in sexual activity. He repeatedly resisted the advances but eventually acquiesced. The Court found that the accused did not spur on or encourage the behaviour and as a result was acquitted.\nRelated Posts: Invitation to Sexual Touching Mandatory Minimum Struck Down, What is Sexual Exploitation?, What is Sexual Interference?, Consequences of a Conviction for Sexual Assault\nWhat is Invitation to Sexual Touching? | Bayne Sellar Ertel Carter",

        "title": "Interview: Isaac Garcia of Central Desktop - Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "Interview: Isaac Garcia of Central Desktop\nArticle first published as Isaac Garcia - Taking Down Microsoft on Technorati.\nMessenger: Isaac Garcia, Co-Founder and CEO of Central Desktop, former Co-Founder of Upgradebase.\nCentral Desktop was founded in 2005 to provide an easy-to-use, SaaS collaboration solution to the SMB market. The company initially focused on self-serve users who purchased the solution online, competing with the likes of Basecamp and GoPlan. However, over the past several years, Central Desktop's collaboration software has increased in functionality such that it is now a credible competitor to Microsoft's SharePoint.\nIn the interview below, Co-Founder and CEO of Central Desktop, former Co-Founder of Upgradebase, discusses this transition and what it feels like to be in Microsoft's crosshairs.\nYou can watch the video below or watch it on on YouTube by clicking here:\nWhat follows is a summary which paraphrases the interviewee's responses. For exact quotes, watch the video.\nValue Prop Twitter Style: Central Desktop is: \"a cloud-based social collaboration platform for businesses.\"\n6) Isaac, why does the world need Central Desktop?\n\"Collaboration is really hard. From day one of the Internet, we were promised the dream to connect with people all over the world\u2026and it would revolutionize everything. Fast forward twenty years, it's still difficult.\nTeams within large, small, medium sized companies need collaboration tools that are easy to use, fast to setup and accessible from anywhere and everywhere.\"\n5) Central Desktop recently transitioned from a startup to a growth oriented company that is clearly here to stay. What did you find most difficult about this transition and what do you wish you had handled differently\n\"Two things stand out. One, I wish someone had told me it will take longer than you think. Also, we should have segmented our customers sooner and narrowed our market segment (earlier).\"\n4) Central Desktop is in a crowded, confusing market, yet you have successfully stayed above the fray - you seem to be in every analysts' super-duper special quadrant. What have you done to so successfully differentiate Central Desktop?\n\"The first three years, we spent all of our time on the phone with our customers, even when we were a two-person company. Other companies in our space made it difficult to reach them on the phone.\nAnalysts are very similar to investors in that they need to be nurtured - you need to have an ongoing dialog with them - it's about staying on their radar. You can stay in touch with them on a weekly, monthly or a quarterly basis with a simple, analyst-based newsletter that goes just to them so they feel exclusive - like they are part of your inner circle.\"\n3) Most great companies have inspiring Origin Stories. I am curious to hear how you and your Co-Founder Arnulf Hsu came up with the idea for Central Desktop.\n\"We were at CNet and I did a very large deal with Microsoft. I would fly up to Redmond twice a week and we would all sit around a really large conference table - it was the largest (advertising) project Microsoft had ever done, a $100M advertising campaign.\nAt the end of every meeting\u2026 we were sharing a USB stick that we passed around the conference table. At one point I asked, 'Why aren't we using Sharepoint?' They patted me on the head, smiled and said, 'Oh Isaac, we don't have the resources to do that.'\nThat's when it sunk in that there was a really big problem here. If Microsoft, who built collaboration software, couldn't do it, then how could a small to medium size company do it? So we set out to create something that was, in some ways, anti-Microsoft. How do you make something as useful as SharePoint available to the masses?\"\n2) The term \"online collaboration\" is like a Jackson Pollack painting. It means something slightly different to each beholder. Do you think the meaning of this term will coalesce in the next five years, and, if so, what will it mean to most people?\n\"Today, web-collaboration means everything from web-meetings, to video conferencing, to Skype, etc. Collaboration has become almost synonymous with the word 'work'. We are seeing more and more focus on what kind of work. We are using the word 'collaboration' less and less.\nIt's a maturing thing in the industry. The definition will continue to change, which is why we see opportunity.\"\n1) You recently released SocialBridge, a collaboration solution geared to marketing agencies. Can you tell us about the strategy behind going after this particular segment? Also, do you have general advice for entrepreneurs who are trying to decide if they should stay broad or attack specific verticals?\n\"We look at our existing customers, close to 3,000 companies using our products, and looked for clusters within that user base - common industries and common uses. We also looked outside, what are the markets that are big and broad and fragmented.\nMarketing agencies, creative agencies, we already had a lot of those customers using our product, but they weren't using us to the full extent they want. They wanted more extensive functionality that we were able to drill into\u2026 and then ended up building SocialBridge.\nAs far as looking at the market, there is no large, established huge leader who owns the marketing creative, project management space. We saw high fragmentation which is an opportunity to create our own wedge and build it out from there.\nThe third thing we looked at was which industry is going to be highly viral. The marketing, creative agencies are naturally inviting folks in and there's a lot of insider-speak between the industry that make it a very viral market.\"",

        "raw_content": "'Where's your mercy?' Anonymous posters criticizing pope appeared briefly in Rome\nBen Moshinsky,\nPope Francis holds a candle as he arrives to lead the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord mass in Saint Peter's Basilica at the Vatican\nPosters accusing Pope Francis of attacking conservative Catholics appeared around Rome this weekend and were swiftly covered up by city authorities.\nThe posters, put up during the night between Friday and Saturday by mystery activists, featured a picture of a stern-faced pope and the slogan: \"Where's your mercy?\"\nThe text accused Francis of several interventions targeting conservatives, including what the posters called \"the beheading of the Knights of Malta.\"\nThis was a reference to an ancient Catholic order of knights which is now a worldwide charity and whose former Grand Master handed in his resignation to the pope last week after a two-month, highly public feud.\nThe posters appeared several hours before the Vatican announced the name of the pope's personal delegate to the troubled order, a move that side-lined conservative Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke, who had been its chaplain since 2014 and is a frequent critic of the pope.\nIn a letter released by the Vatican on Saturday, Francis told Archbishop Angelo Becciu that he would be the \"exclusive spokesman\" for the pope at the Order until elections are held for a new Grand Master in several months.\nThe power struggle between the knights and the Vatican erupted in December, when the order's grand chancellor, Albrecht Boeselager, was dismissed.\nThe Order of Malta was founded in Jerusalem in 1048 as a community of hospitals. It now operates in 120 countries with as many as 100,000 employees and volunteers.\nThe posters were even more mysterious because sections of the text were written in the working class dialect Romanesco, spoken only in the Rome area.\nCity authorities pasted white paper over them with the message \"illegal advertising\", as they had been put up without authorization or the payment of a tax.\nThe Vatican had no comment. But Father Antonio Spadaro, a Jesuit who is close to the pope, said in a tweet that they were a sign that Francis was doing a good job and therefore irritating many people.\n(Reporting By Philip Pullella; Editing by Robin Pomeroy)\nSEE ALSO: A 627-year-old 'blood miracle' failed to occur, heralding disaster for 2017\nMore: Reuters Rome Church Italy",

        "raw_content": "The world's biggest brands could sue FIFA for millions over 'wasted' marketing budgets\nA man jokes about FIFA outside the hotel Baur au Lac Zurich on May 27, 2015 in Zurich, Switzerland. Swiss police on Wednesday raided the Zurich hotel to detain top FIFA football officials as part of a US investigation.\nThe arrests of several FIFA officials on Wednesday on racketeering and corruption charges has already led to a number of big name sponsors questioning whether they will continue with their advertising contracts.\nBut the charges, which relate to more than $150 million in alleged bribes and kickbacks from the 1990s to today, not only place Qatar's 2022 World Cup hosting in jeopardy, they also could lead to some of the world's biggest brands suing FIFA for advertising and marketing money already spent on the event.\n\"When the news broke, I was absolutely flabbergasted, as this is huge. This is like no other. Even if you look prior to the corruption news, sponsors were already under huge pressure to pull out as there were hundreds of migrant workers that died building the infrastructure for the event,\" said Antony Marcou, managing director at sports marketing and tech group Sports Revolution.\n\"Now with the whole corruption scandal, this isn't just a question about whether a company should pull out of the World Cup, it's a question of whether Qatar will even host it anymore. As a massive corporation that signed a contract to sponsor Qatar, you would have committed to spend millions on active campaigns in the country and elsewhere. You'd have recruited people in local markets, spent money already on billboards and advertising, and everything else. It could be wasted spend.\n\"Companies could sue FIFA if the Qatar World Cup doesn't happen. Multinationals could also sue if they lost out on a contract and spent money bidding for it. The only people that are going to make a lot of money out of this, is going to be the lawyers.\"\nVisa, which has a contract with FIFA to sponsor the World Cup until 2022, at an estimated value of $185 million (\u00a3120 million) over a four-year tournament period, issued the most critical statement yet from a World Cup sponsor in reaction to the arrests of several FIFA officials.\nOn top of that, other sponsors have reacted to the corruption scandal engulfing FIFA in light of yesterday's news.\nYou can read what Visa, Coca Cola, Adidas, McDonald's, and Budweiser, say here.\nMore: FIFA Sepp Blatter Qatar Qatar World Cup",

        "raw_content": "Paytm Mall completes $450 million funding round from Softbank and Alibaba\nDilsher DhillonJun 13, 2018, 01.28 PM\nFlipkart and Amazon should pay close attention. The two-way race to the top in India\u2019s e-commerce market could soon be crashed by a third contender.\nPaytm Mall, the e-commerce arm of the country\u2019s payments upstart Paytm, has reportedly closed the final round of a $450 million (\u20b930 billion) cash infusion from its international backers, Softbank and Alibaba.\nThe investment, which was announced in April 2018, was completed in four tranches, with \u20b926 billion coming from Softbank and the remainder from the Chinese e-commerce giant. As a result, Softbank now owns a 21% stake in the business while Alibaba has a 46% stake.\nThe funding round, which comes soon after Softbank agreed to sell its shares in Flipkart to Walmart, is said to value Paytm Mall at as much as $2 billion. While this is still a far cry away from the enterprise value of Flipkart and Amazon\u2019s Indian business, it is by no means insignificant.\nAmbitious growth plans\nPaytm Mall commenced operations in early 2017 with a $200 million investment from Alibaba. According to a blog post in April, it extended its reach to 700 towns and 19,000 zip codes within its first year of business.\nThe company has ambitious growth targets, and it will use its newly-bolstered finances to try and achieve them. After closing fiscal 2018 with a gross merchandising volume (a measure of total sales) of $3 billion, it plans to triple this figure to $10 billion this fiscal year.\nGiven that Paytm has no inventory of its own, it primarily facilitates the online sales of offline businesses. This year, it also plans to ramp up its focus on offline store partnerships, given that 60% of its online sales come from offline stores. It has ties with around 75,000 of these stores, and plans to onboard twice as many stores to its portal by 2019.\nTo enable these stores to sell online, Paytm will offer them devices for invoicing and inventory management as well as insurance on these devices. Its Point of Sale (PoS) technology will be gradually rolled out across its retail partners over the course of this year. The cloud-based technology allows shopkeepers to manage orders, get real-time data on inventory and sales and bill customers.\nThe Indian e-commerce market is expected to record $33 billion in sales this year, eventually reaching $72 billion by 2022. These figures could actually be much higher if Paytm Mall makes good on its growth plans.\nNext StoryIndia\u2019s central bank is imposing credit limits on large corporate borrowers to prevent further defaults\nIndia\u2019s central bank is imposing credit limits on large corporate borrowers to prevent further defaults\nOne and a half years after demonetisation, Indians are hoarding cash again\nWhat is a bad bank and how can it fix India\u2019s bad loans problem?\n1Paytm Mall completes $450 million funding round from Softbank and Alibaba\n2India\u2019s central bank is imposing credit limits on large corporate borrowers to prevent further defaults\n3One and a half years after demonetisation, Indians are hoarding cash again\n4What is a bad bank and how can it fix India\u2019s bad loans problem?\n10Indian cryptocurrency exchanges looking for leeway from RBI",

Blatt also said they were labelled as \"stroppy cows\". She described the incident as \"unfair\" and \"sexist\".\nA BBC spokesman told the BBC: \"We're not able to comment on something that is alleged to have happened nearly 20 years ago, but today we seek to ensure that everyone working at the BBC does so in an environment in which they are comfortable.\"\nThis is not the first time the programme's legacy has hit the headlines this year. In February Dame Janet Smith's report into Jimmy Savile and the BBC revealed that the largest number of his victims were in connection with his work on the programme.\nOn 1 January, All Saints confirmed on Twitter that they will be reuniting this year.\nAll Saints @AllSaintsOffic\n#AllSaints2016\nTheir fourth studio album, Red Flag, was released six days ago.\nConnect With BuzzFeed UKCelebrity",

The suicide rate for all psychoses was 16 per 100 000 hospital years. Current rates of suicide for schizophrenia and other psychoses appear 20-fold higher.\nThese findings point to an increase in suicide rates for patients with schizophrenia.\nD. Healy (a1), M.

Although the study provides controversial findings, they appear flawed. The title suggests the paper looks only at schizophrenia yet it actually looks at the entire spectrum of schizophrenia and delusional disorders. The groups have not been matched appropriately, not enough detailed demographic data is provided and they appear not to be directly comparable. There may well have been selection bias in the 1994-98 dataset since they were selected from an ongoing study. It is also difficult to believe that the World Wars I and II as well as cultural and lifestyle changes have not affected North Wales. The population may well in a broad 15-55 year age category be the same, but there may be changes in ethnicity and modal age of the population are not demonstrated. The comparison of 1303 patients over a 50 year period to 133admissions in a 4 year period seems due to convenience than methodologicalreasoning. No account is taken for the severity of patients admitted todaycompared to historically or the stage of their illness. Compared to studies in Taiwan the current suicide rate itself is increased at 3.75% over the four year modern cohort, compared to 2% rate of a 15 year period studied in Taiwan (Phillips, 2004). It is also well known that suicide occurs most commonly in the first year after diagnosis (Department of Health, 2001), yet the study looked only compared data to patients who hadcompleted suicide in the first 5 years of contact with asylum services asa subgroup. There is also no calculation of whether the difference in incidences of suicide is statistically significant. Clinically the study, although reporting a higher suicide rate, has not actually demonstrated any explainable reasons for this, and hence has not added to the knowledgewhich may contribute to reducing the 22% of preventable suicides in schizophrenics and other delusional disordered patients.\nReferencesHealy D, et al.

More\nClosure of Asylums: the unseen side\nDr Adil Yusufshah Kadri, Psychiatrist\nMany thanks to the authors for doing such an interesting piece of research. It has certainly altered my way of thinking about the historicalepidemiology and risk of suicide in schizophrenia.\nAs the authors rightly point out in their discussion, one reason for the increased risk for suicide appears to be the increased emphasis on encouraging patients to live in the community. Though on the surface, living in the community does appear to be the way forward it has not been without pitfalls. As we all know there is a sub-group of patients with schizophrenia who we feel may unfortunately never be able to live in the community for various reasons; some of which are severity of illness, lackof insight, poor compliance with treatment with relapse having severe consequences to but name a few. Historically such patients lived in their own 'communities' within an 'asylum'. With the move towards 'care in the community' such psychiatric institutions are being shut down with patientsbeing forced to move out and live in the community (not willingly in all cases). There are also some patients with schizophrenia whom we treat and follow-up in the community but whom some of us feel may be better treated in a psychiatric unit as in-patients. Unfortunately this is not always possible for various reasons, not the least of which is the dwindling number of psychiatric in-patient beds.\nMatters are furthermore not helped by the very nature of today's society. There is increased pressure on all of us to conform, behave in a certain manner, maintain a certain standard of living, maintain relationships, perform well in jobs, meet deadlines, etc. This is stressful enough for 'normal' individuals and one can but imagine what effect this can have on the mental state of those suffering with an illness such as schizophrenia. As somebody once said 'it is a jungle out there' and this saying could easily be applied to the way at least how some of our patients may feel about living in the community. It is is therefore not surprising that living in the community coupled with the stresses of modern day life may all contribute at least in part to the increased risk of suicide in those with schizophrenia. ... More\nConfounds in historical contrast\nJohn H Noble Jr, Retired professor\nThe lifetime suicide rates for the 1875-1924 and 1994-1998 cohorts could easily be explained by historical differences in (1) diagnosis of schizophrenia and (2) locale of treatment. Psychiatric diagnoses are notoriously unreliable and subject to temporal circumstances. Treatment inthe 1875-1924 pre-psychotropic drug era was largely in institutions, wheresupervision made suicide more difficult than in the post-psychotropic drugera of largely unsupervised community care. Either or both of these two variables interacting provide an alternative explanation for the differentsuicide rates. Valid comparison of the suicide rates for the two eras require statistical control for the two aforementioned confounds. ... More",

        "raw_content": "Rule of 72 (more Einstein Finance)\nin Einstein, Rule of 72\nOK, so maybe I will concede that Einstein may have stated that this was important, but I am still not convinced he \u201cinvented\u201d it, but be that as it may, otherwise the concept of Einstein Finance might have taken off. What did Einstein have to do with the Rule of 72 ?\nIf you click on the calculator picture on the right you will find a PDF file that will show you a graph to show you the rule of 72 at work. Assuming your saving a set amount of money with only 1 compounding period per year, this graph is fairly accurate.\nThe other thing to remember is this is a DOUBLING period, and the more of those the better. Why? Remember if you find an investment that grows say by 10% a year (over year), your money doubles in 7 years (approximately), so in 21 years (approximately) your money will be 8 times what it is today! (remember 2 * 2 * 2 == 8). This is why it is so crucial to find good growth in your investments.\nHOWEVER, risk is another thing to take into consideration too, and we\u2019ll talk about that soon as well.\nDouble, double, double!!! Einstein Finance a new and exciting idea?\noriginally published on July 21, 2005 { 1 comment }",

        "raw_content": "Bell's Palsy is a paralysis of the facia nerve resulting in inability to control facial muscles in the affected side. Several conditions can cause a facial paralysis, e.g. brain tumor, stroke, and Lyme disease. However, if no specific cause can be identified, the condition is known Bell's Palsy. Named after Scottish anatomist Charles Bell, who first described it, Bell's palsy is the most common acute mononeuropathy (disease involving only one nerve), and is the most common cause of acute facial nerve paralysis.\nBell's Palsy is defined as an idiopathic unilateral facial nerve paralysis, usually self-limiting. The trademark is rapid onset of partial or complete palsy, usually in a single day.\nIt is thought that an inflammatory condition leads to swelling of the facial nerve (nervus facialis). The nerve travels through the skull in a narrow bone canal beneath the ear. Nerve swelling and compression in the narrow bone canal are thought to lead to nerve inhibition, damage or death. No readily identifiable cause for Bell palsy has been found, but clinical and experimental evidence suggests herpes simplex type 1 infection may play a role.\nDoctors may prescribe anti-inflammatory and anti-viral drugs. Early treatment is necessary for the drug therapy to have effect. The effect of treatment is still controversial. Most people recover spontaneously and achieve near-normal functions. Many show signs of improvement as early as 10 days after the onset, even without treatment.\nProtect the eye. Often the eye in the affected side cannot be closed. The eye must be protected from drying up, or the cornea may be permanently damaged resulting in impaired vision.",

        "raw_content": "Toyota Etios hatchback and sedan\nToyota Etios sedan and hatchback were unveiled at the Auto Expo 2010; Etios sedan launch on Dec 1\nUpdated 31/1/2011: Toyota Etios road test is here. Good bunch of photos as well as a detailed review of the Etios petrol VX.\nUpdated 15/12/2010: Toyota Etios bookings cross 12,000. Market response to the Etios has been nothing short of amazing, and in just two weeks, the car racked up bookings more than 12,000.\nUpdated 1/12/2010: Toyota Etios sedan now launched \u2013 exciting prices for all variants, this could become a serious threat to the market leader\u2019s sedan option the Suzuki Swift Dzire.\nUpdated 27/11/2010: Road tests of the Toyota Etios are now being published by different car magazines in India. We will be bring you our own road test, as well as information on the road tests by others soon. For now, here is a video of the Etios sedan from Overdrive magazine. The video shows the sedan from the outside and inside, and explains most of the features, looks, fit and finish and build quality of the car.\nToyota Etios walkaround video\nUpdated 26/11/2010: Toyota Kirloskar Motor is gearing up for the launch of its biggest product launch ever in India \u2013 the Toyota Etios. This is undoubtedly the most important launch for the company in India. The Etios sedan will tackle the established contenders like the popular Maruti\u2019s Suzuki Swift DZire sedan.\nWe have tried to create a comprehensive resource about the Toyota Etios here for you. All our stories about the Etios in the last few months are available here. Click on the headlines to read the full stories.\nUpdated 26/11/2010: A teaser video featuring AR Rahman for the Etios sedan has been uploaded to Youtube recently. The teaser commercial is an attempt to drum up excitement. We don\u2019t think it really is needed anyway! Here is the full story about the Toyota Etios ad featuring AR Rahman\nUpdated 4/11/2010: It is now confirmed that the Etios sedan launch will take place on 1 Dec. We think November would have been better, as the company could then capitalise on the buying season. That opportunity is lost now, and there are some buyers who will wait for the new year to buy a car.\nUpdated 16/10/2010: AR Rahman will be the brand ambassador for the Etios in India. Rahman\u2019s recent attempt at the CWG anthem did not go all too well, so here is hoping there will be a better job this time around!\nToyota Etios videos\nHere is the teaser video featuring the Etios brand ambassador AR Rahman. There will be a longer version of this video out soon, we are sure.\nThe company has been promoting its brand and the upcoming small family sedan very aggressively ever since the Auto Expo. There have been several roadshows across the country which showcased the Etios sedan and hatchback. There has also been an on-going brand-building campaign around the concept of Q-Promise.\nUpdated April 2010: There are definite plans for a diesel version of the Etios. The launch variant though will be a petrol version. The diesel, when launched, will likely be priced around Rs 70,000-80,000 higher than that of the petrol Etios.\nThe concept version of Toyota\u2019s new compact car has been unveiled at the Delhi Auto Expo 2010. The company said that the Etios is 90 per cent production-ready.\nToyota Kirloskar Motor Private Limited (TKM), the Japan-based Toyota Motor Corporation\u2019s production and sales subsidiary in India, displayed Toyota Etios at the 10th Auto Expo, under the banner \u2018World First, India First.\u2019\nToyota showed off the Etios small car in both hatchback and sedan versions. At first look, the car maintained the family resemblace \u2013 the standard Toyota Camry and Corolla Altis lines were very much visible as you can see from the photos on this page.\nThe concept version of the Toyota Etios, developed specifically for the Indian market, is targeted at family users in India.\nAccording to the makers, the compact car Toyota Etios, basically a family car, evokes \u201ca sense of advanced status,\u201d has a spacious interior with plentiful storage space, and offers smooth and powerful driving as well as very good fuel-efficiency.\nPhoto: Toyota Etios hatchback\nHonda also unveiled its so-called \u201cNew Small\u201d small car concept at the Auto Expo 2010 \u2013 unlike the Toyota Etios, however, the Honda car looked more like a concept while the Etios looked seriously close to a final production version. So while the New Small was all radical lines, the Etios looked relatively conservative.\nToyota Etios is evidence of changing world market dynamics \u2013 the traditional markets in the West are shrinking, while the small car markets in Asia and developing countries are exploding. Hence the sudden focus on cars made in India, for local conditions and requirements, from both Japanese manufacturers.\nIn order to make the new car as affordable as possible, locally available parts will be used.\nEtios specs\nOn show at the Delhi Auto Expo are a sedan version of Toyota Etios with a newly developed 1.5-litre gasoline engine, and a hatchback version with a new 1.2-litre gasoline engine. Read our earlier story about the Toyota Etios small car. As far as specifications of the Etios go, that is pretty much all we have for now, and maximum power, torque and top speed as well as expected fuel efficiency figures are not available.\nThe new car will be available in four-door (sedan) and five-door (hatchback) variants.\nEtios: At what price?\nPhoto: Toyota Etios sedan\nThe Etios will go on sale in India later in 2010, with a price \u201cwell below $10,000.\u201d That means a price below Rs 5 lakh easily in Indian rupees \u2013 a very admirable goal indeed, and a recipe for a surefire hit. At that price, the Toyota Etios small car can easily chew up the Suzuki Swift and Dzire and ruthlessly hit the i20. However, there are also some rumours that by the time is the Etios is launched in India, the price would be closer to Rs 7 lakhs for the high end sedan variant \u2013 at that price point, it might become a tough battle.\nYoshinori Noritake, chief engineer of the Toyota Etios project, told reporters at the Auto Expo 2010 that he had visited many cities and homes in India to learn the market and to \u201chear from the consumers directly.\u201d\nInvolved in the development of the Etios were about 2,000 engineers over a period of 4 years, Yoshinori Noritake explained, adding, he is convinced \u201cin my heart\u201d that the Etios will offer \u201cjoy of ownership and quality of life\u201d to the consumers in India.\nToyota Kirloskar Motor Private Limited will start producing the Toyota Etios from the late 2010, at the company\u2019s second plant, which is now being constructed specifically for the for the new car. If they manage to stick to that deadline, the Etios sedan and hatchback can provide very strong competition to Maruti Suzuki, India\u2019s largest manufacturer and to Hyundai, the second largest one.\nThe company has targeted annual sales in India of the Etios at 70,000 units. There are also plans for exports.\nSandeep Singh, deputy managing director (marketing) of Toyota Kirloskar Motor Private Limited, said the company expects to expand its sales in India through its network of 150 dealers by the end of 2010.\nOther interesting small cars that were launched at the Auto Expo 2010 were the Volkswagen Polo and the Chevrolet Beat.\n\u00ab Suzuki Kizashi at Auto Expo 2010, launch in an year\nFiat Punto Sport, Trendz, CNG versions unveiled at Auto Expo 2010 \u00bb",

This is the second consecutive year that an all-time high has been reported and builds on a 10-year effort to build fundraising capacity and engage the sector more widely with philanthropy.\nNumbers of both alumni and non-alumni donors also rose to record levels in 2011-12. The number of alumni making donations was up 5 percent in 2011-12, rising to almost 170,000, whereas the number of non-alumni donors rose by around 11 percent, to almost 44,000.\nIn addition, cash income received-single cash gifts and cash payments received against pledges secured in previous years-was also relatively stable, rising from \u00a3542million in 2010-11 to \u00a3544million in 2011-12.\nHowever, despite these overall successes, the median (average) new funds secured and cash income received by individual institutions fell in 2011-12 compared to 2010-11. This reflects increased variation in university performance-39 percent saw an increase in new funds secured and 31 percent saw an increase in cash income, but 27 percent of reporting institutions also saw their new funds secured drop by more than 50 percent. These variations have also affected the median fundraising cost per pound received, a figure which has fluctuated since the start of the report, but which rose to 36p in 2011-12. However, with investment in fundraising often taking some years to be reflected in new funds and cash received, this figure is expected to fall again in future years.\nKate Hunter, executive director of the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) Europe, one of the key partners in the report, said:\n\"It's fantastic news that we're seeing continued growth in higher education philanthropy, despite wider economic pressures and the end of the government's Matched Funding Scheme. As giving to higher education grows, we need to ensure institutions are supported in developing this important stream of income. Analysis and sharing of best practice will be key to helping more and more universities reach their full fundraising potential.\"\nThe variations in performance shown in the report led to the Ross-CASE Survey Report exploring \"communities\" of universities that have a similar fundraising profile to each other for the first time.\nUsing the Latent Class Analysis approach revealed five different groups of universities currently in the UK:\nElite fundraising programmes: This group consists of just two universities-the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge. For universities in this group, a higher proportion of their donors are alumni and a higher proportion of their alumni are donors.\nEstablished fundraising programmes: A smaller group, at 6 percent. These institutions secure substantial levels of funds and cash, tend to receive a greater number of gifts over \u00a3500,000 and have a higher number of donors and alumni who make donations.\nModerate fundraising programmes: The next largest group, at 27 percent. These institutions mostly have a healthy ratio of fundraising investment per pound received, although they still only receive a small number of gifts over \u00a3500,000.\nEmerging fundraising programmes: The biggest group, at 62 percent of those surveyed. Institutions in this group have less developed fundraising programmes and a lower return on their fundraising efforts. Only a few institutions in this group have received a gift over \u00a3500,000 in the last three years, and often their largest gift makes up a large proportion of their income.\nFragile fundraising programmes: Making up 4 percent of the overall total, this was the only group that spent more on fundraising activities than they received.\nTania Jane Rawlinson, director of campaigns and alumni relations at the University of Bristol and chair of the Ross Group of Development Directors, added:\n\"As the recent Review of Philanthropy in UK Higher Education led by Professor Shirley Pearce highlighted, the sector's approach to fundraising has been transformed over the past 10 years. Important drivers of success are clarity about an institution's identity, knowing what is realistic and sharing the learnings of those who are 'best in class.' We believe that the data provided by the Ross-CASE Survey Report, including this year's innovative new way of grouping universities, is invaluable to anyone in higher education looking to develop or improve their own fundraising programmes.\"\nFor a full version of the report, visit www.rosscasesurvey.org.uk\nFor further information, contact Hollie Rendall or Rosie Mann at Kindred - 020 7010 0829/0843 or hollie.rendall@kindredagency.com / rosie.mann@kindredagency.com .\n1. Latent Class Analysis is a statistical approach used to class individuals or institutions into different categories according to how they answer a series of questions. Each category brings together institutions with the most similar attitudes to the selected questions. The questions used in this case were:\nAverage funds secured over the last three years\nAverage philanthropic cash income over the last three years\nAverage largest cash gift received, as a percentage of total cash income over the last three years\nAverage number of gifts over \u00a3500,000 received over the last three years\nAverage number of donors over the last three years\nAverage proportion of alumni making a gift over the last three years\nAverage fundraising investment per pound received over the last three years\n2. According to the Council for Aid to Education's Voluntary Support of Education, 2012 report, charitable contributions to colleges and universities in the United States increased just 2.3 percent in 2012.\nAbout the Ross-CASE survey and NatCen:\nThe Ross-CASE survey is carried out annually by the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) on behalf of the Ross Group and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) in Europe. The first Ross-CASE survey was carried out in 2002 and has been repeated annually since then.\n143 institutions took part in the Ross-CASE survey 2011-12, including eight further education colleges. Of the higher education institutions surveyed, 117 were based in England, 7 in Wales and 11 in Scotland and Northern Ireland.\nThe survey of gift revenue and fundraising costs has been carried out each year since 2002 to measure the philanthropic performance of higher education and further education institutions. It is the only source of information on this subject in the UK, enabling institutions to compare themselves with their peers. It also provides an estimate of the overall impact of philanthropy on the higher education sector.\nFor further information, visit www.rosscasesurvey.org.uk.\nAbout The Ross Group\nThe Ross Group Development Directors Forum is an independent support group of senior development directors involved in fundraising for higher education. Members come from HE institutions across England, Scotland and Ireland; membership is by invitation of the group.",

        "raw_content": "'Everyone ... has a sob story': Thalidomide survivors say they were belittled by disabilities minister\nMembers of a thalidomide survivor group say they felt belittled and are appalled after meeting with Kent Hehr, the federal minister for persons with disabilities, and accuse him of making repugnant statements about their life expectancies.\nKent Hehr says he apologized after his comments were 'misconstrued'\nCatharine Tunney \u00b7 CBC News \u00b7 Posted: Dec 05, 2017 1:03 PM ET | Last Updated: December 6, 2017\nThalidomide survivors say Minister of Sport and Persons with Disabilities Kent Hehr degraded them during a meeting. (Jonathan Hayward/Canadian Press)\nThe minister flat out denies at least one of their claims and said he has apologized if some of his comments were misinterpreted.\nFiona Sampson, a thalidomide survivor who attended the Oct. 19 meeting, told reporters on Tuesday that Hehr degraded those in attendance with his remarks.\n\"In response to members of the group reading really heartfelt testimonials, Minister Hehr \u2014 apropos of nothing \u2014 commented, 'Well you don't have it as bad today as adults as you did when you were kids,'\" said Sampson, a human rights lawyer and chair of Thalidomide Survivors Task Group.\n\"Then he went on to say, 'Well you don't have it so bad. Everyone in Canada has a sob story.'\"\nThalidomide survivor struggles for compensation\nSampson said one of the most repugnant statements in the 30-minute meeting came after the group explained to Hehr that they have shortened lifespans and have already lost five members since the House of Commons passed a unanimous motion to support survivors back in 2014.\n\"He said to us, 'So you probably have about 10 years left then now. That's good news for the Canadian government.' We were shocked and appalled,\" she said.\nOne of the members in that meeting was hospitalized in the ICU two weeks later, said Sampson, making his comments \"especially repugnant.\"\nLawyer Fiona Sampson told reporters Minister Kent Hehr insulted and degraded them during a meeting 1:57\nSampson said her team wrote to the prime minister directly about the meeting and Hehr later called her to apologize.\nIn a statement, Hehr denied making comments about lifespans at the meeting, but said he apologized to the organization after his comments were misconstrued.\n\"My heart goes out to thalidomide survivors. I have listened to their stories and I know our government, led by the minister of health, is taking the concerns very seriously and I will continue to advocate on behalf of all Canadians with disabilities,\" said Hehr in a statement issued Tuesday.\n\"As someone with a disability myself, it was certainly not my intention to offend anyone. While some of my comments were misconstrued, as soon as I learned that my comments were felt to be offensive, I immediately called the organization directly and apologized.\"\nHehr was asked about his conduct during question period in the House of Commons on Tuesday and answered by reading a similar statement to the one he earlier sent out to the media.\nDisabilities Minister Kent Hehr faced questions from Conservative Karen Vecchio 1:46\nSampson also alleges at one moment in the meeting Hehr was feigning shock and reached out to grab one of the members by the arm, close to her breast.\n\"In a way that was inappropriate and unwelcome. And I think that was a shock to us all too,\" said Sampson.\n\"It was an unwelcomed physical contact that violated her personal space.\"\nThe member in question is sick and wasn't at the news conference, she added.\nHehr said Tuesday was the first time he's hearing about the accusations.\n\"Last week I spoke directly to the organization to apologize if my comments were misconstrued, but today was the first time I heard about this accusation and I am extremely troubled by it. If there was any physical contact, it was completely accidental and I apologize,\" he said.\nMembers of the Thalidomide Survivors Task Group hold a news conference on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on Tuesday. From left to right are Fiona Sampson, Mary Ryder, Lee Ann Dalling and Alexandra Niblock. (Fred Chartrand/Canadian Press)\nAfter question period Hehr held a scrum with reporters in the foyer of the House of Commons in which he denied commenting on the lifespan of thalidomide victims, yet was unclear about some of the other allegations.\n\"I did not say 'you only have 10.' We, our government is working as hard as we can on behalf of people with disabilities,\" he said. \"I did say that we, there are, a great many people with disabilities in this country and that we are working hard as a government to try and assist all of them, in all sincerity,\" Hehr said.\nAsked if he told the thalidomide victims that \"everyone has a sob story\" Hehr said he spoke for a \"half hour about the trials and tribulations of many people in this country\" and that he understands how \"difficult\" the lives of thalidomide victims have been.\nThe survivors are calling on the federal government to honour a pledge to compensate them with a lump sum payment of $250,000 and increased annual pensions.\nThe Disabilities Minister speaks with reporters after Question Period 7:05\nThey say patients have received lump sum payments of $125,000 each, noting they are struggling to make ends meet due to the extent of their disabilities.\nIn December 2014, the House of Commons passed a unanimous motion with a commitment to provide \"full support' to Canadian thalidomide victims who were born with physical disabilities due to the effects of the drug, used to combat morning sickness, during pregnancy.\nComplicating the plot line, a group called the Thalidomide Victims Association of Canada released a statement distancing itself from Tuesday's bombshell news conference.\n\"These survivors are not members of the original thalidomide survivors task force and did not participate in the work that went into developing the settlement program that was announced in 2015,\" said executive director Mercedes Benegbi.\n\"While no amount of financial support will ever be enough to compensate these individuals for the pain and suffering they've endured, the program that exists today is making a significant difference in the lives of thalidomide survivors and is allowing them to live with dignity.\"\nFiona Sampson of the Thalidomide Survivors' Task Group says thalidomide survivors left a meeting with the disabilities minister feeling 'disrespected and degraded' 7:11\nWith files from the CBC's Peter Zimonjic and The Canadian Press\nSelf-reported Alberta thalidomide survivor calls government compensation criteria unfair\n'I can't go down without a fight': B.C. woman denied recognition as thalidomide survivor",

The task force is expected to have turned in a report by December 15 next year.\nNew York\u2019s Crypto Task Force a First in US\nAccording to New York City\u2019s tech nonprofit, Tech:NYC, the crypto task force will be the first in the United States and this will assist in solidifying the state\u2019s status as a \u201cglobal hub for smart innovation.\u201d\nThe idea of a cryptocurrency task force in New York was initially proposed mid last year following an inquiry into exchanges that had been launched by the Office of the Attorney General in the state.\nNew York State May Launch a Cryptocurrency Task Force https://t.co/Y20YDAr3vl\n\u2014 CoinLook (@CoinLook) June 3, 2018\nAt the time, the New York AG\u2019s Office indicated that the inquiry had been started following an increase in public interest in cryptocurrencies and a spate of cryptocurrency heists.\nTyler Winklevoss, the chief executive of Gemini Exchange, which was one of the exchanges that had received questionnaires from the AG\u2019s office, welcomed the move, arguing that the market was in need of prudent regulation and enhanced transparency:\nThese technologies can\u2019t flourish and grow without thoughtful regulation that connects them to finance. As long as jurisdictions strike the right balance, we think it\u2019s going to be a huge boon and win for cryptocurrencies.\n\u2018No Way!\u2019\nAt the time, not all crypto exchanges welcomed the inquiry by the AG\u2019s office with open arms, however. The founder and CEO of Kraken, Jesse Powell, declined to respond to the inquiry, saying on social media that the 34 questions would require a diversion of company resources and would thus hinder the firm from fulfilling its mission:\nWhen I saw this 34-point demand, with a deadline 2 weeks out, I immediately thought \u2018The audacity of these guys \u2013 the entitlement, the disrespect for our business, out time!

        "title": "A breakthrough in videos teaching sound climate science - CFACT",
        "raw_content": "A breakthrough in videos teaching sound climate science\nBy David Wojick, Ph.D.|2017-09-25T15:19:57+00:00September 25th, 2017|Climate, Videos|1 Comment\nThere has been a breakthrough in videos that systematically teach a skeptical view of climate science at the high school level. Two new videos are now available, free on YouTube. So far as I know these are the first of their kind (and we need a lot more). Both are excellent.\nAlthough each video can be used alone, they form a sequence. The first is titled simply \u201cA Better Understanding\u201d and the second \u201cA Better Understanding\u2026The Physics.\u201d Of course the understanding in question is of the climate system. But it is also of climate science, because the thrust of each video is that the climate models are wrong and we need to understand why. Not to give away the story, but the short answer is that they are too focused on radiative forcing, especially from CO2. The basic message is that climate science has gone running off in the wrong direction, as it certainly has.\nEach video is just over 20 minutes long, which fits nicely into the classroom period. They are both very well done. The basic format is voice over slides, with the narration providing most of the information, especially in the first video. In the Physics one there is necessarily some use of graphics to explain the science, but this is kept to a minimum in the first video.\nThe Physics video is almost entirely about the complex interplay of heat, energy and radiation in the atmosphere. It does a good job of covering this technical ground while staying within the limits of high school understanding. A nice touch is that it begins with the IPCC itself making the point that the climate models are not working.\nThe simpler Better Understanding video is mostly about climate modeling, but it goes beyond the science at the end to address some broader societal issues. The first of these is the idea of adaptation and that we can do this regardless of why climate changes. The second is that we need to stop scaring children with doomsday prophesies. How this message is presented is a surprise and a treat in itself.\nThis Better Understanding video is well suited for the segment of an Earth Sciences course that deals with climate models. This assumes that the societal issues are also touched on which is likely in most schools. In fact a look at climate modeling is required in the new high school level Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) that now cover about a third of all the public school students in America. As I have written before, it is important that modeling not be used to promote alarmism and this video does the job of countering alarmism very well.\nThe Physics video might be used in a Physics course, but here it faces a possible obstacle in that climate science is typically not required in Physics under most state standards, including the NGSS. (Would that it were.) If so then the teacher needs to go beyond the standards, because the physics of climate is very important. It can also be used in Earth Sciences courses which unfortunately tend to be light on physics.\nAn intriguing feature is that these videos basically come out of nowhere. They are written, produced and even narrated by one Payne Edwards, but that is just a stage name. They are not produced by a well known skeptical group. This anonymity deprives the alarmists of their favorite argument \u2014 the ad hominem attack. Instead, they will have to deal with these videos on their considerable merits.\nI hope these free YouTube science videos will be a model for a great many more. There are a lot of bogus alarmist scientific claims that need to be refuted at the middle and high school levels, because that is where they are being taught. While we are at it, let\u2019s stop scaring the children.\nImmortal600 September 26, 2017 at 10:12 PM\nTwo very good videos! Thank you Dr. Wojick for this article.",

        "raw_content": "Painted Purebreds\nIt\u2019s a picture-perfect Tuesday afternoon in Athens, Georgia. Leaves have begun to depart from trees and drift to the ground. The sun shines down, cutting through the brisk October air. The Memorial Park Playground is abuzz with activity. Joggers and cyclists pass by, making their way along the waterline. Dogs play fetch with owners. Couples sit together on benches. And there, in the warm, golden light stands Mike with his grandson Oliver, seated atop a colorful bulldog statue painted with uplifting words and phrases like \u201clove\u201d and \u201ckindness matters.\u201d The two are spending some quality time together in the park, and whether they realize it or not, public art is at the forefront of that shared experience.\nHave you ever wondered where all the bulldog statues throughout the Athens area originated from? They adorn dozens of street corners and greet guests at storefronts all over town. People seek out specific dogs to decorate their Instagram feed and selfie collection, like the \u201cWelcome to Athens\u201d dog near Creature Comforts Brewing Co. The larger-than-life public art display has become a staple in the local community and can be found in some capacity nearly everywhere you go.\nThe Mastermind: Linda Ford\n\u201cI promise it\u2019s not normally like this,\u201d Linda Ford expressed as she hopped up to answer the phone for the second time, addressing the caller on the other end with a cheery greeting.\nAlthough the phones rang constantly, the Athens Downtown Development Authority office stood practically empty on a Monday afternoon as Ford juggled responsibilities typically delegated to a multitude of employees, all of whom happened to be on break or off work at the same time.\n\u201cI am certainly the last person in the world to do any kind of art,\u201d she said as she sat back down at the large table. The irony of this statement is undeniable considering the major role Ford has played in the Athens, Georgia, art community over the past 15 years.\nCredit for the bulldog statues ultimately belongs to Ford. What started as a small fundraiser by the Athens-Oconee Junior Woman\u2019s Club in 2002 has now spiraled into a major tourist attraction that generated international publicity for the Classic City. Ford was quick to talk about the news coverage of the bulldogs all the way in China when the project began and a story was published by the SEC in October of 2017. Even after all these years, the project shows no signs of slowing down and the impact continues to spread.\nInspiration for the artistic venture was drawn from other similar charity projects like \u201cCow Parade\u201d in New York City and Chicago. The main idea was to find local artists to paint bulldog statues that could later be auctioned off to generate money for AIDS relief in Athens. The original goal was to sell a dozen dogs, but that was exceeded tremendously when nearly 50 statues were auctioned to raise a combined total of approximately $25,000 in 2010.\n\u201cPeople won\u2019t always go in a museum,\u201d Ford said, \u201cbut this brings the art to them.\u201d\nHer vision was simple: make art accessible to everyone. The impact, however, extends far beyond the scope of fiberglass bulldogs in Athens, Georgia, as public art continues to make a difference in communities worldwide.\nThe Expert: Marilyn Wolf-Ragatz\n\u201cArt has an important place in a community to help it thrive,\u201d Marilyn Wolf-Ragatz said from across the table between sips of iced coffee. As she sat on the outdoor patio of a popular Athens coffee shop, Wolf-Ragatz couldn\u2019t help but critique the landscaping and exterior aesthetics that surrounded us. \u201cHow excited are you about this rust?\u201d she joked as she offered suggestions on how to beautify the location.\nA bulldog statue stands across from Jittery Joes at Five Points in Athens, Georgia. (Photo/ChamberlainSmith, chamberlainlockett.com)\nChamberlain Smith\nAs an art educator of over 30 years and an artist herself, Wolf-Ragatz has the knowledge and background to support her claims. She currently presides as the chair of the Athens Cultural Affairs commission, an organization established to advise local government on all matters related to public art. Specifically, according to the commission\u2019s mission statement, the program is in place to \u201cto foster the development and enjoyment of performing, visual, cultural and other arts in the Athens-Clarke County community.\u201d\nWolf-Ragatz\u2019s passion for beauty is what led her to join the original public-art task-force during its establishment in 2010 and later be appointed to her current position alongside nine others. Her work with the commission has been varied over the last seven years. From curating an extensive art collection for the Classic Center downtown to beautifying local parks and bus stops, Wolf-Ragatz has had a hand in it all. One thing remains the same\u2014the opinions of the general public are taken into consideration. Wolf-Ragatz views this as the whole point of public art: getting the community involved and excited about making their city beautiful.\nWhile the Commission guides the selection of potential public art installation and acquisition \u201cthe public makes the final selection,\u201d Wolf-Ragatz said.\nLike Ford, Wolf-Ragatz understands the value of making art accessible to all people. Her passion is to help people understand the value and importance of art \u201cand to bring that art to the community for everyone.\u201d",

The very next year, CNS was founded as a parent/educator partnership.\nWe are still very much a dynamic and growing institution, with new milestones achieved every year. Our accomplished teaching staff is second to none, our inviting facility is beautiful and functional, and we have partnered with many esteemed educational institutions. We look forward to writing the next part of our history with new families.\nWe began our program with eight students. Interest in the school grew quickly. In an effort to accommodate as many families as possible, we moved into a larger space. With the help of private and public grants, donated salaries, and the generosity and vision of community members and school families, we grew from serving 16 preschoolers to 48 in just one year.\nIn 2009 \u2013 only 2 short years after our opening \u2013 we welcomed 62 children. We also joined a Lesley-NAREA study group that culminated in a dialogue with Lella Gandini, one of the leaders in Reggio Emilia. Soon after we added a 3-day lunch program, an extended-day program, and Friday Explorers, and formed many new community partnerships.\nIn 2012-2013, we also welcomed leaders in the field including Ellen Hall, Lelia Gandini, Ben Mardell, Ann Lewin-Benham as well as visiting educators from Europe, South America and Asia and over 200 educators from schools within the US to see our practice. In 2013-2014, we opened an afternoon strand of our core program to accommodate the growing number of children on our wait list. Today, in 2015 we have over 90 children and welcome over 1000 visitors a year to share innovative practice.\nWe depend on our partnerships for our continued success \u2013 most importantly, those with our member parents.

        "raw_content": "New research suggests that prices for high-end graphics cards \u2013 coveted by both cryptocurrency miners and gamers alike \u2013 are falling.\nThe research was conducted by John Peddie Research, a tech marketing and consulting firm based in California. As tech publication Computerworld reported on Tuesday, the report shows higher-priced products from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Nvidia have dropped significantly from their highs experienced earlier this year.\nFor example, according to Jon Peddie Research, the price of an OEM 4GB RX 580 six-pack \u2013 a top-notch GPU from Advanced Micro Devices \u2013 was $3,600, having completely sold out as of April. But that product is available on the market for $2,500, a reduction of $1,100.\n\u201cWe have predicted a drop in [application specific processors] as [cryptocurrency] prices dropped,\u201d C. Robert Dow, manager of digital media at Jon Peddie Research, said in an email to the publication, adding:\n\u201cThe cost to run the mining rigs is not insignificant, so when the price for the currencies drop\u2026, people will run rigs and choose to dump AIBs [add-in-board] on the secondary market hoping to recover some cost.\u201d\nMeanwhile, the research\u2019s data also show that the number of AIB shipments directly to cryptocurrency miners dropped about 55.5% compared to the same quarter of last year.\nFrom the charts\nAdditional data provided by a website called PCPartPicker, which tracks the prices of computer components, also indicates that there is a general downtrend occurring for GPUs.\nFor example, the chart below shows price developments for the Radeon RX Vega 64 \u2013 a product hailed by some tech bloggers last year as a premier tool for mining cryptocurrencies. In spite of several short upticks, the price of that product seems to have peaked in early March.\nSimilar accolades were published for the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti \u2013 but it, too, has seen a gradual price decline since around the same time.\nWhether this means anything in the long-term remains to be seen \u2013 cryptocurrency mining is effectively an electricity arbitrage, where gains are made when the cost of mining (including hardware, energy and labor) is less than the return on the coins once sold.\nGiven that the cryptocurrency market has declined overall since early this year, demand would, in theory, fall in tandem with those figures.\nMore answers could come in the form of future financial results from Nvidia and AMD, both of which have made a point to discuss the impact of crypto mining on their bottom lines. While business was great by the end of last year, that state of affairs may be changing, according to these figures.\nGPU image via Shutterstock/Graphs from PCPartPicker.com\nResearchpricemarketcryptocurrency miningGPUOriginalPC\nBitcoin Price Spikes to Nearly $9,000 on WEX Crypto Exchange",

        "raw_content": "The number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits dropped sharply last week, a sign that layoffs are rare and the job market is strong.\nThe Labor Department says weekly applications for jobless aid fell 19,000 to 234,000, a low level that indicates businesses are holding onto their employees. Applications are a proxy for layoffs. The four-week average, a less volatile figure, rose to 224,750.\nBusinesses are hiring at a healthy pace that has surprised economists, who expected job gains would slow as the number of unemployed dwindled. The jobless rate stood at just 4 percent last month, when employers added 304,000 jobs, the most in nearly a year. With labor scarce, many companies are reluctant to let workers go, likely because they fear it will be hard to replace them.\nIn its 10th year of expansion, the economy faces an unusual number of headwinds. But so far, employers have largely shrugged them off. The 35-day partial government shutdown likely sliced growth in the first quarter by roughly 0.3 percentage points at an annual rate, economists say. Other challenges loom: Slowing growth in Europe and China is weighing on U.S. exports. And an ongoing trade fight with China could further ding the U.S. economy.\nMany economic reports are still delayed because of the shutdown, making it difficult to gauge the impact of these trends. The first estimate of the economy's growth in the final three months of last year won't be released until the end of this month, nearly 30 days later than scheduled.",

        "raw_content": "Civil War sites keep Maryland history alive\nClaire WangSpecial To The Sun\nYou don't have to drive to Antietam or Gettysburg to walk in the footsteps of soldiers.\nBaltimoreans often drive past Civil War sites and monuments on their daily commute.\nBefore the Battle of Monocacy in the summer of 1864, Confederate soldiers pushed into Baltimore, intending to cut off the city and Washington from the north and release Confederate prisoners of war in Point Lookout to take the pressure off Gen. Robert E. Lee at Petersburg.\nLed by Cavalry Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, they arrived in Cockeysville on July 10, destroying telegraph lines and tearing up the track along with Northern Central Railroad. They also burned the first bridge over the Gunpowder River, beyond the site of the Old Ashland Furnace.\nOn July 11, Johnson rode south to Charles Street Avenue (present-day Charles Street) and burned the summer home of Gov. Augustus W. Bradford in retaliation for the burning of Virginia governor John Letcher's home. At 8 a.m., Lt. Henry Blackiston woke the governor's wife, helped the family in moving their valuables outdoors and set fire to the estate. The private Elkridge Hunt and Golf Club (6100 N. Charles St.) is on the site toDay, but you can stop to read the historical marker by the side of the road.\nBefore leaving Cockeysville, Johnson had ordered Maj. Harry Gilmor, a native of Baltimore, to cut the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad at Magnolia -- a feat that history would remember as \"Gilmor's Raid.\" Gilmor took 135 men on the road to Towsontown along present-day Pot Spring Road, striking Old York Road at the Ridgely Family's Hampton Mansion (535 Hampton Lane, 410-823-1309). It is not known whether there were exchanges between Gilmor and the Ridgelys, but the mansion and scenic grounds, operated and maintained by the National Park Service, host several events and lectures on the family and 18th-19th century life throughout the year.\nAfter passing through Timonium, Gilmor stopped to visit his family at \"Glen Ellen,\" a castle built by his father, Robert III, in the likeness of the Gothic castles in Scotland. The castle and its grounds were sold in 1883, the year of Harry's death, and a dam was erected by Robert's son William, who named the reservoir Loch Raven. The castle stood until 1930. Parts of it were removed and incorporated into other Baltimore homes and buildings, including the Cloisters. Only the foundation, located in Hampton Cove at , remains. The 45-minute trail leading to the grounds is accessible by Loch Raven Drive. For a map and other information, visit the Historical Society of Baltimore County (9811 Van Buren Lane, 410-666-1878).\nAfter striking the railroad at Magnolia, setting fire to the bridge over the Gunpowder River and taking five Union officers prisoner, the Confederates traveled along the Philadelphia Pike to Towson, where they stopped for a drink at Ady's Hotel. Built by Ezekial Towson in 1768, the stone tavern (also known as the Towson Hotel) became a regular stagecoach stop and popular resting place for travelers due to its convenient location (500 block of York Road). It is believed that George Washington stopped at the hotel on several occasions. It continued to serve the public until the 1920s, when the building was razed. The now occupies the site.\nAfter a brief skirmish with Union troops, whom they pursued to Govanstown in the vicinity of Woodburne Avenue, they joined Johnson's men at Poolesville before withdrawing to Virginia, ending the Confederate invasion.",

        "raw_content": "GLENBROOK NORTH READY TO MEET ITS LATEST CHALLENGER\nMike Holbrook, SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNECHICAGO TRIBUNE\nGlenbrook North has been through this all before.\nA couple of years ago, Highland Park was primed to unseat the Spartans as Central Suburban League North Division champions. Glenbrook didn't budge.\nLast year, it was Maine West's turn to challenge. Again, the Spartans came out on top.\nFriday night, the unbeaten Spartans (6-0) get an up-close look at their top challenger for this season's CSL North crown when they visit a young but talented (5-0) Deerfield team.\nA full house of 1,600-plus spectators is expected at Deerfield's gym. \"What you have is two programs-one (Glenbrook) that is at the top and the other (Deerfield) that is looking to get there,\" said Glenbrook North Brian James.\n\"They're very young, but they're out to prove to us that they're ready to take over the top spot.\n\"It'll be a tremendous game. It's just a shame it's the first game of the league rotation.\"\nThe two teams reached their unbeaten records in vastly different ways. Glenbrook North breezed through its own Thanksgiving tournament and its non-conference games without really breaking a sweat.\nMeanwhile, Deerfield had to come from behind to win four of its games, including overtime victories over St. Viator and New Trier.\n\"The overtime victories we've had have helped our young players grow,\" said Deerfield coach Steve Pappas. \"When you go through some wars early on, you definitely grow up real fast.\n\"This (challenging Glenbrook North for supremacy) is where we wanted to get the program to. It's a great thing for our community, our school and our kids.\n\"There's a lot of excitement about this game.\"\nOn display will be two of the suburbs' top players. Glenbrook North senior point guard Billy Donlon is a three-year varsity starter and a returning all-conference selection.\nDeerfield's leader is sophomore shooting guard Ryan Hogan, all-conference as a freshman and averaging 21 points per game this season.\nBut Donlon and Hogan aren't the only players on which to focus. North also boasts a solid frontcourt of 6-foot-6-inch junior Joe Hein, 6-5 senior Jim Dombkiewicz and 6-3 1/2 senior Mike Downes.\nDeerfield's supporting cast includes senior point guard Brian Panek, 6-6 senior Seth Benziger and 6-4 junior Mike Casey.\n\"Both teams depend on spurts to carry them,\" said Pappas. \"The key for us is to not let them come out with their high energy and take over the game early. We're hoping to get them into a dogfight.\n\"We want it to be a war.\"\nJames anticipates a high-scoring game: \"You have two explosive offensive teams that can get the ball up and down the court.\n\"They're a better free-throw shooting team than we are, but we feel we'll be the best defensive team they've faced.\"",

Officials believe they can sell the property for up to $25 million.\nThe university is moving part of its operations to a new campus in Lisle, but plans to stay on the North Shore at an undetermined location.\nThe Evanston City Council this week changed the zoning of about an acre of the parcel to single-family from the university zoning the school wanted to keep until it was sold.\nThe move calmed residents' fears that the sale could result in a high-rise soaring over their single-family homes in Evanston. The rest of the site is in Wilmette and zoned for single-family homes.\nIn the last month, National-Louis also broke off merger talks with Roosevelt University and spun off its laboratory school.\nThe National-Louis property hasn't been listed yet, but parents at Baker Demonstration School on the campus want to make sure they have a new home before a sale.\nIn September, the Baker Parents Organization signed an agreement with the university that will turn over control of the school to parents and a 16-member board to be created next month.\nThe agreement keeps the school and its 70 teachers and 275 elementary pupils as part of the university this school year and turns over authority to the board July 1, said Allen Steinberg, president of the parents' group.",

        "raw_content": "From its Roman roots to the present day.\nFIND OUT CHICHESTER'S HISTORY\nWhen William Camden described the City of Chichester in his pioneer history of Britain in the 16th century he wrote: \u2018The city hath four gates, opening to the four quarters of the world\u2019! Although the old gates have now gone, much of the Roman wall remains.\nIn 44AD the Romans built a fort where Chichester sits today, which they called Noviomagus Reginorum (the New Market of the Regni)! A visit to The Novium Museum is well worth a look, and amongst many treasures, there you will see the remains of a Roman bath house, around which the museum has been purpose-built.\nAlthough a small city in scale, Chichester radiates great stature. Dr Thomas Sharp has commented: \u2018...outside the special places like Oxford, Cambridge and Bath (which in any case are much bigger), the city has few rivals, and certainly none among the smaller towns\u2019.\nThe four main streets stretch out like a compass following the Roman and medieval plan, and although the old city has packed itself between the walls, there are unusually fine areas of park and gardens. Chichester is not a place that gives up its secrets easily, but a day spent walking the city will be a rewarding experience, and it\u2019s behind the main streets you become aware of the antiquity that modern facades have in many cases disguised.\nIt may be obvious to many that Chichester is a Georgian city, but to find it\u2019s medieval aspect, it may be necessary to search a little deeper. On a fine day, you will discover the colour of Tudor and Georgian brickwork, mellow tiling and grey flints.\nA major quality in the character of Chichester is the juxtaposition of various building periods and styles which, because of their essentially domestic scale, create an unusually satisfying harmony. Examples of this can be found in such lanes and thoroughfares as Lion Street, St Martin's Square, The Pallants and The Close. The street elevations are complemented by the subsequent roofscapes of churches, shops and dwellings standing shoulder to shoulder in the natural development of a real community.\nChichester's Market Cross, given to the city in 1501 by Bishop Story to provide shelter for those selling produce, is the finest in Britain. The medieval St Mary's Hospital and the 13th-century choir building of the Grey Friars in Priory Park are well worth a look. The finest early dwelling houses are John Edes House, West Street, built 1696, and Pallant House, 1712. Interesting literary associations with the city include William Collins, John Keats, William Blake and HG Wells!",

        "raw_content": "How to Verify a Chinese Company is Legal or Not\nWith the rapid development of China's economy, more and more foreign investors have begun to start their business trade in China. However, how to choose a cooperative company is a very important issue. The first step in choosing an ensemble company is to verify the legitimacy of a Chinese company. How to verify the legality of Chinese companies? Here I give you the following advice:\nThe first question to ask is \"Where is the company located?\" Many suppliers use the Hong Kong company name and provide an address in the mainland (usually in Shenzhen). According to the company name, I can often guess the location of the company, but this is not easy for most foreigners.\nIf the company is in Hong Kong, the importer can find a lot of tips in the Background checks of the Hong Kong companies. If the company is in China, the corresponding article is the 6 tips for a background checks of Chinese suppliers. But I realized that I didn't cover all the sources of information in this article.\nChinese Business Licence: Introduction\nUsually, It has no problem for Chinese suppliers to send a copy of their business license to potential customers. This is not a secret document. It is in Chinese but shows interesting data. For example:\nWhen the company was set up (does it match what they told you?)\nRegistered addresses (is it the same as they show in their signature? If not, is there any explanations?)\nInvested capital (if this is 100,000 RMB, you know that you are not dealing directly with a manufacturer.)\nIs it a trading company or manufacturer in China?\nI hope that finding the nature of a supplier is as simple as that. However, one area shown on the business license is the nature of business (trading, manufacturing\u2026). This may be an easy way to spot and disqualify an intermediary. But beware - many manufacturers are also involved in Sourcing New Supplierstrading.\nIs there a Chinese Company Registration Search Website?\nUnfortunately, you can't find a database containing all Chinese registered businesses. But you can go to the AIC (Administration of Industry and Commerce) website and search in Chinese. If you are lucky, you can find some information about your target.\nChinese company WHOIS domain lookups\nAre they useful? This is another way to \"can\u2019t hurt not not fool-proof\u201d. I have never used it, I do not think it is reliable.\nUsing Error Level Analysis to Spot Photoshopped Documents from Scammers\nThis is really suitable for geeks! As I wrote before, many of the certificates provided by Chinese suppliers are fake, so detecting \"photoshopping\" can only be a good thing.\nThere is another method for verifying a Chinese company\u2019s legitimacy - Ask for help from a company that specializes in providing Chinese Company Verification Service. ChinacoCheck.com, for example. Verify a Chinese Company now!",

        "raw_content": "Today, 9/18/15. is the 120th birthday of Chiropractic.\nI have an old black-and-white photo on the wall, in my office, in the Adjustatorium. It was a chiropractic rally at Madison Square Garden in New York, in 1932. 16,500 chiropractors and their supporters. As Chiropractic was not legal in the State of New York until 1967 (New York was the third to last state to legalize), most of those chiropractors had gone to jail (some of them, many times) for \u201cpracticing medicine without a license.\u201d Most of my older professors at New York Chiropractic College were \u201cjailbirds,\u201d with pride! At one time or another, chiropractors all over the country were jailed for adjusting people. It still goes on in Italy, France and Spain. Funny, that it was the medical doctors that worked to jail chiropractors (because of the threat they posed to them). Now, it is medical doctor-like (allopathic) chiropractors that seek to jail chiropractors. Weird, but true. So, now you know that, in addition to regular \u201cNew York Attitude,\u201d I have \u201cNew York Chiropractor Attitude.\u201d\nIn the old days, when chiropractors were jailed, most were given the opportunity to renounce their \u201cD.C.\u201d degree for an \u201cM.D.\u201d degree. They declined. What did they do in jail? They adjusted theirfellow prisoners and the guards. What did their practice members do? They demonstrated outside the jail, holding signs and chanting \u201cFREE OUR DOCTOR!\u201d In the 60\u2019s, in New Jersey, when real chiropractic was threatened by a medical wannabe chiropractic board, practice members of dozens of practices banded together, demanding their right to receive Chiropractic. They sent letters. Sometimes, they showed up, by the hundreds, at Board hearings. The good guys won. So it will be, again. Even easier today, with the influence of the media and the internet. Keep reading. Further on, I will be telling you about our new \u201ce-zine\u201d( internet magazine). The best way to get the government to do the right thing is to publicly embarrass them into doing the right thing. In the future, whether the Board\u2019s intended victim will be me, or one of my colleagues, I will count on you for your support of real Wellness VSC-based Chiropractic. As George Orwell wrote, \u201cIn times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.\u201d Voltaire said: \u201cIt is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.\u201d\nI often make mention of my \u201cNew York Chiropractor Attitude.\u201d Well, in the historical context, I must give credit to Iowa Chiropractor Attitude. Dr. B. J. Palmer, the \u201cDeveloper of Chiropractic,\u201d said: \u201cI will sell Chiropractic, serve Chiropractic and save Chiropractic if it will take me twenty lifetimes to do it. I will promote it within the law, without the law, in keeping with the law or against the law, in order to get sick people well, and keep the well from getting sick.\u201d Count me in!",

If you haven't seen \"Belly of the Beast,\" then feel free to check out our other coverage and come back when you've watched.\nThis week was an interesting one when it comes to The Strain, as a lot of action and backstory have been laid into what serves as the midpoint for the final season. But by the end of the episode, a pretty big bombshell finally went off, and the name on the side was \"New Horizons.\" As promised, the truth was revealed, and it was just as bad as we thought. For even though New Horizons kind of lived up to its promise as a farming community, the crop wasn't what its citizens thought it was, and that's a problem.\nAs it turns out, New Horizons is, in fact, a concentration camp; or as Eph put it, \"The Master's final solution.\" The Partnership has gone full Nazi, as foreshadowed all throughout this season, and that future for the B-positive babies we predicted last week isn't exactly as we'd thought either. As it turns out, those babies are harvested shortly after birth, as they're something like veal to the Strigoi higher-ups. So much for giving humanity a chance to prosper in mutually beneficial circumstances.\nWith all of the circumstances on the table, both Eph and Dutch have helped piece together the Strigoi machinery for us, the audience. While we haven't seen Eph enact any big moves as of yet, Dutch helped disrupt the wheels of progress in the name of humanity by starting a riot in the clinic she's been kept captive in. And, as an added bonus, it looks like she's sprung Professor Setrakian from the bone marrow testing clinic that he's been kept in, and from the very same building. We'll more than likely see Herr Eichorst back on his feet again next week, though, since being set on fire surely isn't the worst fate he's been subjected to.\nThere's a lot going on with The Strain, as humanity is moving in for the kill against the Strigoi partnership. With Eph poised to liberate New Horizons, Dutch bringing Setrakian back to the world of the living, and Fet finally recovering the vital part to the nuclear warhead he's been seeking, it all looks like it's coming together. But with Eph's son still proven to be a sore spot, as well as a bargaining chip between himself and The Master, the human race is far from safe.\nThe Strain will head back to our screens next Sunday at 10 PM EST on FX, with only four episodes left to close out this massive story. If you've wondering what else is coming to the small screen soon, check out our summer TV schedule and our fall TV schedule.",

        "raw_content": "Subscribe To What Bill Gates Did During His Big Bang Theory Appearance Updates\nWhat Bill Gates Did During His Big Bang Theory Appearance\nSpoilers ahead for the March 29 episode of The Big Bang Theory.\nThe Big Bang Theory has a history of bringing in big names as guest stars, ranging from Wil Wheaton as Sheldon's recurring nemesis to Carrie Fisher and James Earl Jones. The latest famous face to pop up on The Big Bang Theory wasn't a star of the stage, small screen, or silver screen, however; Bill Gates appeared on the latest episode as himself. Unsurprisingly, the brain trust of Leonard and Co. were dying to meet him, but the introduction wasn't going to be simple. Here's what happened.\nPenny is the one who made the announcement that Bill Gates was coming to her job at the pharmaceutical company, as his foundation was working to expand its charitable reach. She was excited at the prospect of meeting Bill Gates, but her excitement was nothing compared to that of Leonard, Howard, Raj, and (to a lesser extent) Sheldon, who believed that Penny's announcement of Gates' arrival was merely an April Fools' joke. Penny decided to just go ahead and let him believe that after he accused her of pranking him in the past, so Sheldon was out of the running to meet Gates. The rest of the guys were decidedly not out of the running.\nAlthough Penny could not/would not introduce her husband and his pals to Bill Gates--understandable, since Gates was there in a professional capacity and Penny might not have looked great if she unleashed the nerd horde on him--the introduction was still a priority for them. So, they found out where Gates was staying and camped out in the lobby behind Penny's back, believing that he'd be bound to come back eventually. After staking out for a while, Gates did finally make it to the lobby, and the guys laid eyes on their hero.\nAs you might expect, Leonard did not handle meeting Bill Gates with much in the way of poise. He gets points for approaching Gates when he was clearly super nervous; he loses points for starting to cry almost immediately. It was bad enough that Gates offered Leonard a tissue. When Leonard asked for a hug instead, Gates offered a tissue again. Take a look!\nThat wasn't Bill Gates' only scene. He also popped up by the end of the episode when Leonard was pretending to be sick at home. His loving wife got Gates to appear on a video chat with Leonard, which is when Gates spilled the beans that he'd already met Leonard. Penny wasn't happy, and we can bet that Leonard was in trouble when he got home. Poor Sheldon never did get to meet Bill Gates due to being sent on a couple of wild goose chases.\nFor more of the Big Bang crew's shenanigans, tune in to CBS on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET.

        "raw_content": "THE NOW SUPER BULLISH GOLD & SILVER SETUP DOES NOT BODE WELL FOR THE DOLLAR...\nIf you want to understand the great mass of investors, you don\u2019t need to spend hours reading a book written about a hundred years ago, the best way way to do it is to treat yourself to some time watching sheep. You can even make something of a vacation of it by going along to a sheep dog trial, such as the classic ones held on the English \u2013 Welsh borders in the heart of sheep country or in New Zealand. It\u2019s a fun day out and you can learn from chatting with the farmers, and more to the point, you can learn a lot about investors by watching the sheepdogs and the sheep \u2013 all you have to remember is that the sheepdogs are the Smart Money and the sheep represent the great mass of investors, the so-called Dumb Money. If you do go to the sheepdog trials on the English \u2013 Welsh borders , remember to tag on a day or two to visit nearby Hay-on-Wye which is stuffed full of secondhand bookshops where you can find some great old books, and mercifully very few of them are written in Welsh.\nFortunately, we can readily identify the sheepdogs and the sheep on our COT charts, the sheepdogs are the purple bars on our charts, the Commercials, who take the other side of the trade from the sheep, who are the blue bars, the Large Specs. Let\u2019s now look at a pair of charts, a 1-year chart for silver itself with the COT chart stacked directly below it, which is for 1-year too, in order to see how the sheep are always wrong. As we can see the sheep, the Large Specs (blue bars) always have their biggest long positions at or just ahead of peaks in the silver price. This is not rocket science is it \u2013 to assist you in grasping this, an appropriate number of right and wrong labels have been added to the chart. While the obvious conclusion from this is that the Large Specs are just plain stupid, dumber than the dumbest jackass, as pragmatic speculators we do not waste our time condemning them, rather, we simply make sure that we are the opposite side of the trade from these clowns, and if they are going short silver to a significant degree, as they did last week, then we are going to make darn sure that we are long. If we are a little too early, and silver drops some more, then so what? The entire financial system is set to blow to smithereens before much longer, and the Emerging Markets collapse is just the start of it \u2013 the periphery is burning and the firestorm will soon spread towards the center. When that happens there are going to be \u201cprecious\u201d few hiding places, and the Precious Metals sector will be one of the only boltholes around. Before leaving these charts it is also worth noting that the Commercials went long silver for the 1st time since 2001 last week and if that isn\u2019t a sign of an imminent bullmarket, then I don\u2019t know what is. Incidentally, with respect to the classic 1948 goldbugs film with Humphrey Bogart \u201cTreasure of the Sierra Madre\u201d, those of you who play casino slot machines may not realize that the refrain \u201cBonus? \u2013 we don\u2019t need no stinking bonus!\u201d that the \u201cMy Caramba\u201d machine says in a thick Mexican accent when the bonus is cut short, is actually inspired by the Badges? \u2013 we don\u2019t need no stinking badges! scene in the \u201cTreasure of the Sierra Madre\u201d, but I digress\u2026\nThe net Commercial Hedgers chart is also unprecedentedly bullish, as it shows that this is the 1st time during the life of this chart, i.e for the past 25 years at least, that they have held a net long position \u2013 put simply it doesn\u2019t get any better than this\u2026\nThe 6-month chart for silver shows recent action in more detail. On this chart we can see that last week\u2019s dip brought the silver price back close to its mid-August lows, with which it is suspected to be forming a small Double Bottom, and a bullish looking \u201cinverted hammer\u201d candle appeared on Friday, so we might be right at the bottom here.\nFinally, unlike back in the Spring, gold\u2019s latest COT chart is also very bullish\u2026\nAs mentioned on some of these charts, if the outlook for gold and silver is so positive, then it means that the dollar\u2019s \u201cwrecking ball\u201d rally is about done. So, after looking for evidence that it is, we have this\u2026\nThis monthly chart for dollar proxy UUP shows a bearish monthly \u201cshooting star\u201d for the month of August and money flow becoming negative in recent weeks, indicating that Smart Money have been taking profits in dollar trades. It also shows a big ugly potential Broadening Top. According to this chart the dollar is about to turn lower. It is also worth noting that the Accumulation chart for UUP on its daily chart has been extremely weak on this rally.\nThe conclusion to all this is that the coast is clear to accumulate the PM sector \u2013 even if the sector drops more, it is unlikely to be by much. That\u2019s what Smart Money is already doing, and they are going to be sitting pretty and not have to give chase if the sector goes roaring up. At this juncture it is probably best in general to accumulate the large to mid-caps, since they are unlikely to drop much more if the sector grinds a bit lower, whereas as we know, some juniors can easily get another 30% lopped off their prices if the sector goes nowhere and there is no positive news out of the individual companies. We will accordingly be reviewing the charts for a range of large and mid-cap gold and silver stocks as a matter of priority going forward.\nPosted at 12.00 midday on 1st September 18.",

        "raw_content": "Key Technology Announces Fiscal 2015 Financial Results and Highlights\nPublished 4:10 PM ET Thu, 12 Nov 2015 Globe Newswire\nWALLA WALLA, Wash., Nov. 12, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Key Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:KTEC) announced today sales and operating results for fiscal 2015 and the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2015.\nNet sales for fiscal 2015 were $102.9 million, a decrease of $15.3 million, or 13%, compared to the $118.3 million reported for fiscal 2014. The Company reported a net loss for fiscal 2015 of $5.0 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.4 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, for fiscal 2014.\nFor the 2015 fiscal year, gross profit was $28.8 million, compared to $34.3 million for fiscal 2014, or 28.0% and 29.0%, respectively, of net sales.\nOperating expenses for the year ended September 30, 2015 were $36.2 million, or 35.2% of net sales, compared to $42.3 million, or 35.8% of net sales, for fiscal 2014.\nNet sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $30.4 million, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 7%, compared to the $32.6 million reported for the same quarter last year. The Company reported a net loss for the fourth quarter of $1.5 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the same period a year ago.\nGross profit for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 was $8.4 million compared to $9.7 million in the corresponding period last year, or 27.6% compared to 29.8%, respectively, of net sales.\nOperating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 were $10.2 million, or 33.7% of net sales, compared to $9.9 million, or 30.4% of net sales, in the same quarter last year.\nJack Ehren, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, \u201cAs a result of the low annual net sales and related margins for fiscal 2015, overall annual operating results were below expectations. Although operating expenses increased during the fourth quarter, primarily related to the introduction and beta testing of the Veryx platform, operating expenses for the fiscal year declined significantly in all functional areas, compared to the prior year. This decrease demonstrates management\u2019s commitment to establishing a scalable infrastructure for future growth, and maintaining a healthy financial position and a strong, stable balance sheet.\u201d\nOrders received for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 were $114.8 million, compared to $110.5 million in fiscal 2014. New orders received during the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter were $30.6 million, compared to $24.0 million in the same period last year. As of September 30, 2015, the Company's backlog was $30.7 million, compared to $18.1 million at September 30, 2014.\nEhren further commented, \u201cGrowing our business in the EMEIA region has been a major focus for Key over the past two years. In this region, for the second consecutive year, we achieved record annual orders in euros compared to the prior year, and for fiscal 2015, EMEIA orders increased 32% in euros over the previous fiscal year. Our strong orders in the fourth quarter were also favorably affected by orders in our EMEIA region.\u201d\nMajor New Platform Introduction\nAs previously announced on September 28, Key introduced its new sorting platform, Veryx\u2122, at Pack Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. Veryx is the result of a concentrated, two-year development effort and a significant investment by the company to bring leading technology solutions to the market.\nEhren stated, \u201cA primary component of our overall strategic plan has been to invest in the development and introduction of new, innovative platforms and solutions. Veryx brings revolutionary innovation to our customers, renews Key\u2019s technology leadership position, and redefines digital sorting with a new standard of performance. We are encouraged by the enthusiastic responses of our customers to the value the Veryx platform offers them, and we are excited about our potential to leverage these new developments to increase our market share in our core and high-potential adjacent markets.\u201d\nEhren concluded, \u201cFor the last few years, we have been driving foundational changes within Key that are reshaping our culture, our approach to technology leadership, our customer relationships globally, and our overall ways of doing business. We remain confident in our long-term strategic direction, and believe that our potential to leverage the investments we are making will position Key for sustainable long-term growth and profitability as well as create long-term shareholder value.\u201d\nThe Company's conference call related to the fiscal 2015 year-end and fourth quarter results can be heard live on the Internet at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time on Thursday, November 12, 2015.\nTo access the audio webcast:\nPhone - Q&A participation:\nInternet - Audio webcast:\nKey Technology FY2015 Yr-end and Q4 Conference Call\nReplay - Available through Thursday, November 26, 2015\nAudio replay:\nKey Technology (NASDAQ:KTEC) is a global leader in the design and manufacture of process automation systems including digital sorters, conveyors, and processing equipment.

        "raw_content": "Here are top 10 countries for expats to live in. Guess where is India on the list\nExpat Explorer survey is an in-depth study of expats around the globe. The survey\u2019s rankings are based on experience, family life and economics.\n\u201cAs expats, we have a unique perspective. We live globally, embracing everything living abroad can teach, show and give us. I have moved country nine times and I am still learning. The world is more than our oyster. It is our home, our workplace, our children\u2019s playground, our future,\u201d John Goddard, head of HSBC Expat said.\nThe global report examines the way more than 22,000 expats around the world feel about their lives overseas. It distills their experiences, economic and family life to measure how well their new home caters for them and how it ranks against the rest of the world, HSBC said.\nTake a look at the top 12 countries that expats prefer:\n1. Singapore. The south-east Asian country is preferred by a majority of expats and say, \"Endlessly challenging and endlessly stimulating; wholly worth it.\"\n2. New Zealand: On New Zealand, expats say, \"Don't be an 'expat', integrate from day one\u2026 Enjoy the 'Kiwi' lifestyle or move on, you'll never be happy unless you give it your all.\"\n3. Germany: \"One of the best things you can do is learn the language and get involved however possible. Enrolling in a language school alone can get you immediately connected to many other expats and locals.\"\n4. Canada: \"Take the time to do a research trip and make sure you meet up with expats in Canada who can share their experience with you. Make sure you move to Canada for the right reasons.\"\n5. Bahrain: \"Move to the area with lots of expats. It's easier to make friends and you'll get good advice from people who have been through it before.\"\n6. Australia: \"Be prepared to integrate. Stop converting Australian dollars in to pounds and kilometres in to MPH etc. You live in Australia now. Embrace it and Australia will embrace you.\"\n7. Sweden: \"Swedes can be a reserved bunch and tend to keep a distance if they don't know you. To make friends quickly, join a sports club or social activity as this is where lots of people meet outside work!\"\n8. Switzerland: \"If your children are young enough (i.e. about 8 or younger), put them in the local school, not the international school. They will learn the local language and culture and you will become more integrated yourself.\"\n9. Taiwan: \"Culture Shock Taiwan is a must-read book to ease the expat into business life and culture in Taiwan. Not a tour guide, but a succinct introduction to Taiwan, the Taiwanese, getting to know them and settling in.\"\n10. United Arab Emirates: \"Prepare yourself that you might make more money but the cost of living and general standard of living is high, so you must discipline yourself greatly (forgo some travel, social, and shopping opportunities) if you wish to save or invest. It is very easy for your entire pay check to be gone on day-to-day expenses.\"\n11. France: A third of expats (34 percent) arrive in France hoping to develop or find direction in their own or their partner\u2019s career or skill set. But they may have struggled. This is simply not a nation internationally known for its boost to career or income and far fewer expats here report the improvement in leadership, efficiency, productivity or confidence in the workplace that expats elsewhere do.\n12. India: More than half (54 percent) of expats here are confident that their life in India can help build their personal wealth. They have significant confidence and optimism in their financial futures, and their present is shaping up nicely too.",

The movie begins with a golf tournament where the \"star\", a young adult golfer, is playing in a tournament with his father as his caddie. The father has been consistently coaching and driving his son to be a Tour Champiion. On the last hole of the tournament in which he is the leader -- he has a bad shot, -- then another -- then another -- and looses his temper, his game and the tournament. The young man drives off in anger and disappointment ... to Utopia... where he is mentored by Robert Duvall (Johnny) using a very different coaching style and a \"born-again\" experience. Although this is clearly a Christian-themed movie, non Christians will find non-religious lessons to talk about with their family, Probably not a good movie for parents who are driving their children to be the very best -- the winner -- at a sport -- or anything. The lesson of the movie is \"winning isn't everything.\" You don't have to be a great star to be a good person.",

HMRC and the banks have been more supportive than was the case in the early nineties. Banks have not lent out money that has led to businesses being starved of cash to grow, BUT some banks have not been calling the loans in and putting companies into administration with quite the same vigour as in the past. RBS for instance although the biggest bank (by debt volume) is responsible for the fewest administration appointments - 10% at last count by insolvency today magazine.

It is a fair reflection of some of the personal information about you which we collect through this website (and which is provided to us by other means).\nThis is a more sensitive category of personal information which relates to (e.g.) a person's race, sexual life, criminal allegations or offences, trade union membership or their mental or physical health.\nWe do not actively collect sensitive personal data from our customers. However, it would be relevant to the extent that you choose to send this type of information to us, for example if you submit a query to us through the \"Customer Area\" of this website which refers to the particular requirements you have for a residential property, based on the condition of your health or any disability.\nWe make sure that sensitive personal data is subject to additional controls. We would use it only in order to deliver our services to you, to meet your requirements or to deal with any requests made by you. We would only disclose it to any of the third parties referred to in the section \"Who do we share your personal information with?\" in the event that they need to know it (eg if a third party service provider is making adjustments to a property in accordance with the information you have provided to us) and subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations (as may be appropriate).\nWhat do we do with personal information which we hold about you?\nThe legitimate purposes for which we use your personal information may include use for the following purposes:\nto carry out internal record keeping and audits;\nto administer this website and our contract or other relationship with you, including in order to provide our products and/or services to you (for example, to put you in touch with estate agents and other appropriate third parties (meaning any other person or organisation) in accordance with your instructions);\nto obtain payments from you for our products and/or services (this is why we collect credit/debit card details and bank account details);\nto analyse the way in which you use this website with a view to improving the products and/or services we offer and our marketing and advertising activities and for market research purposes related to improving the same including online surveys (we may contact you ourselves for this purpose or ask third parties to do so on our behalf - please refer to the section \"Who do we share this information with?\" below);\nto analyse patterns and trends of use and the uptake of our products and/or services;\nto deal with and respond to any communication, enquiry or application which you submit to us;\nto process job applications which you submit to us through this website;\nto send you direct marketing information about the products and/or services of Connollys Estate Agents, its parent company and of companies carefully selected by Connollys Estate Agents (but only when you provide the appropriate consents to permit this - please refer to the section \"Direct Marketing\" below); and\nto comply with our legal, regulatory and other good governance obligations.\nThis list is not exhaustive and it may be updated in the future. It is a fair reflection of some of the current purposes for which we may use the personal information about you which we collect through this website (and which is provided to us by other means).\nExcept as otherwise set out in this section, we will not transfer, disclose, sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are permitted or required to do so by law or legal process.\nWe may disclose your personal information to third parties which provide services to us including (for example) organisations which we engage to conduct marketing and/or research on our behalf; organisations which assist us in providing our products and/or services to you; organisations which we use to fulfil a contract concluded with you or which provide other business support services to us (for example, database storage providers which store the Connollys Estate Agents databases containing names and contact details used for direct marketing purposes). In accordance with the Act, we will impose restrictions and standards in our written contracts with service providers to ensure they keep your personal information secure and use it only for the purposes for which it was provided to them.\nWe may disclose your personal information to our parent company and third parties carefully selected by Connollys Estate Agents so that they may send you direct marketing about their own products and/or services (but only when you provide the appropriate consents to permit this - please refer to the section \"Direct Marketing\" below).\nWe may sell your personal information to third parties where necessary as part of our legitimate business processes (for example, in the event that our shares are purchased by third parties; in the event that our management or administration is to be taken over by third parties or in the event that our assets (for example, our customer databases or contact lists) are purchased by third parties). Should we do this we would ensure it was carried out in accordance with the Act.\nWe may be required by law or legal process to release your personal information to local or central government authorities, official agencies or legal authorities (ie courts, tribunals, police or security services). In order to maintain the integrity of this website and safeguard the interests of its customers and subscribers, we will comply with any such request.

You should not submit your personal information to us unless you are happy with this position.\nWhat about anonymised information?\nOccasionally we may use and disclose information in aggregate (ie so that individual customers cannot be identified) for particular purposes such as marketing and strategic development purposes. This would not constitute your personal information because you would not be identified or identifiable from it. This means that neither this privacy policy nor the Act would apply to that information.\nIn order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, damage or loss to/of (as appropriate) your personal information, we implement suitable physical and electronic, organisational and technical security measures in accordance with our obligations under the Act. This may include encryption (for example, credit/debit card details are encrypted on the Connollys Estate Agents IT system).\nYou are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your username and password which relate to your access to certain pages of this website and/or any account you set up with us.

In some circumstances we may provide access not copies. We may charge a nominal fee in order to cover some of our administration costs in responding to your request. We are permitted to do this under the Act.\nDirect marketing and third party \"fair processing notices\" and consents\nConnollys Estate Agents, our parent company and third party companies carefully selected by Connollys Estate Agents because they offer products and/or services which we believe may be of interest to you, may wish to contact you by post, telephone, fax, email, SMS and other electronic methods of marketing which may become relevant in the future in order to provide you with marketing information about the products and/or services and/or special offers of Connollys Estate Agents, our parent company and our carefully selected companies.\nTo this end, we may collect personal information from you for direct marketing purposes through this website or by other means such as through paper forms issued to you, email exchanges with you, meetings with you and telephone conversations with you.\nWe will make it clear on the relevant pages of this website if personal information which we collect may be used for direct marketing purposes. We will do the same should we collect your personal information by other means for this purpose. At the same time we will seek your consent to receive direct marketing or we will permit you to opt-out of receiving this (depending on what is required under applicable laws).\nWe will ensure that any direct marketing sent by electronic means would provide you with a simple way to refuse further electronic marketing. For example, SMS messages may tell you to text 'STOP' to a telephone number and emails may tell you to send a request to an email address to stop further emails. Should you refuse further electronic marketing, as soon reasonably possible it would be noted that you had changed your mind. This means that your personal information (including your contact details) may still be held in a repressed form but only to ensure that we maintain a record telling us not to contact you for the same direct marketing purposes.\nIf at any other time you wish to change your mind about receiving direct marketing from us please contact us by email or post using the details in the section \"How to contact us\" below.\nIn addition, third parties such as estate agents, letting agents, lenders, banks, residential developers, companies operating other websites and receivers acting for banks and lenders may collect personal information from you for direct marketing purposes. We may obtain your personal information from those third parties with the intention of using it to send you direct marketing about our products and/or services (or those of our parent company). We take steps to ensure that we do this only when you provide the appropriate consents to those third parties to permit this.\nWe are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. They should provide you with their own \"fair processing notice\" (for example, a website privacy policy) when they collect your personal information. It should identify them as Data Controller; provide a valid contact address and give you fair notice that they will pass on your personal information to other companies such as Connollys Estate Agents for particular purposes including direct marketing purposes. In addition, as explained above, we take steps to ensure that those third parties collect appropriate consents to permit your personal information to be used by us for direct marketing purposes.\nHaving obtained your personal information from a third party we would issue you with our own \"fair processing notice\" at an appropriate time (for example, by pointing you towards this website privacy policy). We would also provide you with the appropriate mechanisms to alter your direct marketing preferences (ie to change your mind about whether you wish to receive it or not) and we would record any altered preferences as soon as reasonably possible.\nTermination of your account and retention of your personal information\nIn accordance with the Act we will ensure your personal information is not kept longer than necessary for the relevant purpose(s) by us or by any third parties which process it on our behalf. Where personal information which we hold is known to be unreliable, irrelevant or excessive, we will securely delete it as soon as possible.\nWe reserve the right to terminate your access to the \"Customer Area\" or \"Business log in\" pages of this website without prior notice. If we terminate your access or if you notify us in writing that you wish to terminate your own access, we will keep your personal information thereafter only for as long as is necessary in case of any legal challenges or other problems. After that period your personal information will be suppressed in or deleted from our database(s).\nPlease use the contact us page on the website.",

        "raw_content": "From signs, pictures, symbols, sounds to emojis, human communications have come a long way.\nThe use of these emoji characters has spread like wildfire amongst the masses both young and old.\nThis new tool of communication has risen in such a way that it now has an undeniable omnipresence in the digital world.\nA day dedicated globally just for Emojis!\nDid you know Jeremy Burge \u2013 the founder of Emojipedia is credited with the creation of World Emoji Day on July 17th 2014?\nSince then, it has been celebrated every year on this date globally.\nSo who is actually responsible for this game-changer of a creation?\nIt was Japanese techie, Shigetaka Kurita who first created emojis in 1999. He cited his inspiration from various expressions of people that he observed in his city. It was he who coined the word \u2018emoji\u2019 as per the Japanese meaning \u2018e\u2019\u2013 \u2018picture\u2019, \u2018moji\u2019 \u2013 \u2018character\u2019.\nMaking a speedy headway into our lives..\nAs per the latest data, a whooping 92% of online users use emojis as part of their conversations out of which 78% are women and 60% are men.\nLooking at these figures, we can say that is quite an astronomical rise.\nLet\u2019s chronicle its rise, shall we!\nAfter the development of emojis in 1999, the Japanese included the character as part of the newly developed I-mode mobile internet platform, which at that time was an introduction to the World Wide Web for a majority of the Japanese population.\nApple officially included emojis as part of its iOS 5 release. It proved to be a game-changer as it wasn\u2019t long after that other Mobile OS players too started following the trend.\nApple introduced emojis representing the LGBT community in its latest iOS release.\nGoogle included emoji support to its OS by making it an integral part of the Google keyboard app. This new feature put Android users on par with other OS users.\nApple included emojis depicting African-American faces with a focus on diversity. The same year, the first \u201cWorld Emoji Day\u201d was celebrated on July 17th.\nApple introduced the option for selecting the specific skin tone for emojis. In the same year, London Oxford Dictionaries announced the emoji, referred to as \u2018Face with Tears Of Joy\u2019 as word of the year.\nApple included more than 100 new emojis, all focussed on promoting gender diversity in its iOS 10 release.\n\u201cThe Emoji Movie\u201d was released worldwide. It was a 3-D computer animated film that captured the world of emojis.\nCreating an extra edge\u2026\nIn this digital era where people spend most of their time on social media apps or using digital devices, communications have taken a giant leap forward. The use of emojis has completely changed how we used to converse online. Nowadays, even brands are using it as a personalised way of interacting with their customer base. It also helps them to stand out in terms of marketing.\nBrands like Pepsi, Disney, Domino\u2019s Pizza, etc. are some examples.\nIn some countries, Domino\u2019s now lets you order pizza by using emoji.\nChevrolet put out a whole press release in emoji, inviting people to decode it.\nGoldman Sachs tweeted completely in emoji to highlight a research report on millennials.\nSports brands are also not far behind!\nDuring this year\u2019s IPL, The Mumbai Indians franchise punished three of its players by making them wear emoji kits for missing gym sessions. The video was put up on the Mumbai Indians Facebook page which went viral.\nBack in 2016, The Euro soccer tournament had partnered with Twitter to add a cup emoji everytime a user shared the hashtag #Euro2016 and country flags when sharing hashtags with team abbreviations.\nGoes down well? Not always!\nSometimes the use of emojis in certain cases hasn\u2019t been popular.\nIn one such instance in 2015, an edition of the newspaper USA Today tried using emojis on its first page. There was an article with the headline \u201cUS Hero of French train attack stabbed\u201d with a crying emoji printed next to it. This caused huge public outrage much to the embarrassment of the company.\nEven in our everyday lives, we should be careful while communicating through emojis. Though they are quite an interesting way of communicating our thoughts & expressions, it might now always go down well with people as they might perceive & interpret it in different ways. So, use them smartly as not to offend anybody.\nEmojis have made communications easier. It adds a unique visual expression or a body language that many can relate with more than verbal or written interactions.\nIt is the new-age modern way of communication.\nIt can be considered as an universal language that allows people from various cultures to interact with each other. One doesn\u2019t need a written/verbal language but just a facial expression is enough. Infact, nowadays, people prefer to express their thoughts & emotions through emojis rather than words.\nWell, it\u2019s a well-known fact that a picture is worth a thousand words. And emojis can save that many characters to get the message across. What do you think?\nemojiexpressionhuman communicationsthought sharing",

        "title": "Now Chad, then Mali: Why African Countries Are Normalizing with Israel",
        "raw_content": "Forget the hype. Israel\u2019s \u2018security technology\u2019 has nothing to do with why some African countries are eager to normalize relations with Israel.\nThe answer is \u2018nil\u2019, and the moment we accept such a truth is the moment we start to truly understand why Chad, a Muslim-majority country, has just renewed its diplomatic ties with Israel. And, by extension, the same logic applies to Mali, another Muslim-majority country that is ready to normalize with Israel.\nChadian President, Idriss Deby, was in Israel last November, a trip that was touted as another Benjamin Netanyahu-engineered breakthrough by the Israeli government and its allied media.\nIn return, Israeli Prime Minister, Netanyahu, paid Deby a visit to N\u2019djamena where they agreed to resume diplomatic ties. In their joint press conference, Deby spoke of \u2018deals\u2019 signed between Chad and Israel, but failed to provide more details.\nIsraeli media is actively contributing to the fanfare that has accompanied Netanyahu\u2019s \u2018scramble for Africa\u2019, and is now turning its focus to preparations under way for another \u2018historic visit\u201d, that of Malian President, Soumeylou Boubeye Maiga, to Israel in the \u201ccoming weeks\u201d.\nNetanyahu is keen to schedule Maiga\u2019s trip just before the April 9 date, when Israelis go to the polls to vote in the country\u2019s early general elections.\nDespite the Trump-Netanyahu love affair at the moment, Israel has no faith in the future of the US in the Middle East region. The current Donald Trump administration, as the previous Barack Obama administration, has made clear and calculated moves to slowly deploy out of the region and \u2018pivot\u2019 elsewhere.\nFor years, Netanyahu has pursued an alternative course, which has become the only path for Israel to escape its international isolation. Unfortunately for Palestinians, Israel\u2019s new strategy, of seeking separate alliances with UN General Assembly members seems to be paying dividends. Israel now hopes that other countries that have historically stood on the side of Palestinians \u2013 voting for Palestinian rights as a bloc at the UN \u2013 will follow the Chad and Mali examples.\nThe struggle between Israel and Arab countries in Africa, according to Dan Avni \u2013 a top Israeli Foreign Ministry official during the 1950s and \u201860s \u2013 is \u201ca fight of life and death for us.\u201d That statement was made during a time that the US had not fully and ardently committed to the Israeli colonial project, and Israel was in a desperate need to break away from its isolation.\nFollowing the expansion of the Israeli colonial project in Palestine and other Arab countries after the 1967 war, the US unconditional political, economic and military support for Israel has addressed many of Israel\u2019s perceived vulnerabilities, empowering it to become the uncontested bully of the whole region. At the time, neither Africa mattered, nor did the rest of the international community.\nBut now, a new Great Game is changing the rules once more. Not only is the US losing its grip in the Middle East and Africa \u2013 thanks to the rise of Russian and Chinese influences, respectively \u2013 Washington is also busy elsewhere, desperate to sustain its dwindling global hegemony for a bit longer.\nAlthough ties between Washington and Tel Aviv are still strong, Israeli leaders are aware of a vastly changing political landscape. According to Israeli calculation, the \u2018fight of life and death\u2019 is drawing near, once again.\nThe answer? Enticing poor countries, in Africa and elsewhere, with political support and economic promises so that they would deny Palestinians a vote at the UN.\nIt is no surprise that the governments of Chad and Mali are struggling, not only economically, but also in terms of political legitimacy as well. Torn in the global struggle for dominance between the US and China, they feel pressed to make significant choices that could make the difference between their survival or demise in future upheavals.\nConsidering this, those who are stuck discussing the Israeli \u2018charm offensive\u2019 in Africa based on the claim of Israel\u2019s technological advancement and hyped water technology are missing the forest for the trees.\nIt is important to note that it is not the road to Tel Aviv that N\u2019Djamena and Bamako are seeking, but rather the road to Washington itself. In Africa, as in other parts of the global South, it is often the US, not the UN that bestows and denies political legitimacy. For African leaders who enjoy no democratic credence, a handshake with Netanyahu could be equivalent to a political life insurance.\nSo, for now, Israel will continue to walk this fine line, usurping American resources and political support as always, while learning how to walk on its own, by developing a foreign policy that it hopes will spare it further isolation in the future.\nDiplomatic ties with Chad and Mali may garner Netanyahu a few more votes next April, but they will also contribute to the Israeli illusion that it can be an international darling and an Apartheid regime, simultaneously.",

        "raw_content": "A Look At The Cincinnati Bearcats\nBy By MIKE ANTHONY\nNext meeting: At Cicinnati in 2010-11\nLast season: UConn's two losses to Cincinnati were among the most frustrating and disappointing of the season. In the Big East opener at Cincinnati, Kemba Walker made a tying three-pointer with nine seconds remaining. On the ensuing possession, Cincinnati went to freshman Lance Stephenson, who drove the lane and drew a controversial foul on Gavin Edwards with less than a second remaining.\nStephenson knocked down two free throws to give the Bearcats a 71-69 victory.\nSix weeks later, with Jim Calhoun returning to the sideline after a seven-game medical leave of absence, the Huskies put up an offensive no-show in a 60-48 loss at the XL Center. Afterward, Calhoun said he was embarrassed.\n\"One of the worst performances I've had here at UConn,\" Calhoun said.\nCincinnati finished 19-16, 7-11 in the Big East, and lost to Dayton in the second round of the NIT.\nWho's gone, who's back: Stephenson, the team's leading scorer and second-leading rebounder last season, left after one season and was drafted by the Indiana Pacers. Also gone is Deonta Vaughn, who exhausted his eligibility after a career that included a few standout performances against UConn.\nYancy Gates, a hulking 6-9 forward, returns for his junior year, having averaged 10.4 points and a team-high 5.9 rebounds as a sophomore. Rashad Bishop (8.4 points a game last season) will patrol the wing as a junior, and sophomore Cashmere Wright is the top returning guard.\nThe UConn-Cincinnati rivalry: Last year's losses to Cincinnati were the first two in history for the Huskies, who hold a 5-2 all-time advantage. The two most recent victories, both in 2007-08, are particularly noteworthy. In January, the Huskies erased a late 12-point deficit at Cincinnati and won 84-83. That was part of a 10-game winning streak, and just before Jerome Dyson, who kick-started the late run in that game, and Doug Wiggins were lost to suspension. Two months later, the regular season finale, a game between the teams was pushed back with Cincinnati unable to travel because of snow. The Huskies set a Big East record with a 45-point victory, 96-51 at Gampel Pavilion.",

        "title": "Disney's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party A Grand, Spooky Affair - Hartford Courant",
        "raw_content": "Disney's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party A Grand, Spooky Affair\nMickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, an annual, family-friendly at Disney World's Magic Kingdom, is one of the Orlando theme park's biggest attractions. More here.\nIt's quarter past 9 and a voice cuts through the darkness, issuing an ominous warning.\nWith a glowing pumpkin to light the way, he's lurking to find his perfect prey. He's the bringer of Halloween fear. Beware, the Headless Horseman is here!\nA hush falls over the throngs of expectant people lining the streets of Disney World's Magic Kingdom, as the clip-clop of a lone horse can be heard in the distance.\n\"Here he comes,\" someone calls excitedly from the crowd, \"here he comes.\"\nAs expected, the Headless Horseman, mounted on a black steed, and an illuminated jack-o-lantern held high in his hand, rides past, leaving enthralled spectators whooping and cheering in his wake.\nThe Dead Head Band are part of the Boo-To-You Parade\u2019s grand finale. (Ali Nasser)\nIt's all part of Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, an annual, family-friendly event held on select nights from August to November at Magic Kingdom.\nDrawing thousands of visitors, it's one of the Orlando theme park's biggest attractions, and for good reason, it's five hours of ebullient, Halloween fun.\nDebuting in 1995, the celebration originated as a single-night event commemorating the holiday.\nAccording to Gene Harding, producer for Disney Parks Live Entertainment, and one of the original producers of the party, it was relatively modest, at least by Disney standards.\n\"We did not even have Halloween-specific entertainment,\" he says. \"That very first year we ran our nighttime parade, and nightly fireworks show, and we did trick-or-treating in the park.\"\nEnergized by the overwhelming response, producers began work on a parade, fireworks and a castle show specifically tailored for the event.\nMore than 20 years later, Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party continues to gain traction and is celebrated 32 nights throughout the fall season.\nThe Hitchhiking Ghosts, from Disney\u2019s Haunted Mansion, are part of the Boo-To-You parade. (Ali Nasser)\n\"It's almost as popular as what you'd traditionally call the holiday or Christmas season; it continues to grow every year,\" says Harding.\nOn party nights, there's an undercurrent of anticipation among the guests from the moment you enter the park.\nIt's a veritable Halloween wonderland: Mickey Mouse is there, jack-o-lantern wreaths hang from the lampposts, more than a quarter mile of fall garland adorns the buildings, and carved pumpkins are tucked into every corner.\n\"It takes a team of 40 decorators three nights to completely install the fall d\u00e9cor on Main Street, And two 53-foot semi-trailers to hold all that d\u00e9cor,\" says Harding.\nCast members are outfitted with Halloween costumes, food outlets offer such specialty treats as candy corn ice cream, and favorite Halloween tunes like Michael Jackson's \"Thriller\" play on speakers throughout the park.\nThe Dead Waltzers perform a ghostly dance during Mickey\u2019s Boo-To-You parade. (David Roark)\nBut Disney's Haunted Mansion is the star of the show. Crowds gather for pictures in front of its spectral carriage hearse and to score a photo with resident ghoul Lady Carlotta, who only makes appearances during Mickey's Not-So-Scary party.\nWearing ghoulish attire and covered in spider webs, attraction attendants stay in perfect character, welcoming guests with a somber, \"Good morning\" even though it's well past dinnertime.\nWith some restrictions, guests are welcome to wear costumes, too, and a fair number of them do; especially kids who like to come dressed as their favorite Disney characters.\nBut plenty of adults are decked out for the occasion, too, with costumes ranging from \"Toy Story\" Woody and Jessie getups to dressing like exercise guru Richard Simmons.\n\"You'll see people of all ages. You'll see seven adults dressed as the seven dwarfs, and there'll be no kids with them. They've come just to be kids,\" says Harding.\nBoo to You(And You, And You)\nConsidered one of the cornerstones of the party is Mickey's \"Boo-To-You\" parade, a dazzling Halloween processional led by Sleepy Hollow's most infamous citizen riding through the streets.\nWith more than 175 cast members, the spectacle is an eyeful of spooky delights, including an inspired march by a crew of macabre gravediggers who draw sparks as they clink and smack their shovels along the pavement, and a ghostly waltz performed by the Haunted Mansion ballroom dancers.\nMickey\u2019s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a family-friendly event featuring parades, shows, and trick-or-treating. (David Roark)\nLarger-than-life floats feature some of Disney's most beloved characters, as well as notorious villains like Captain Hook and Maleficent, who enjoy a rare turn in the spotlight during the one season that celebrates the wicked instead of the virtuous.\nWoven through it all is the \"Boo To You\" theme, a tune guaranteed to be stuck in your head for days, weeks, maybe forever, (not kidding), with its infectious melody and repeating lyrics: It's you know who, boo to you, and you, and you, and you. Happy Halloween!\nThe parade is run twice nightly at 9:15 and 11:15, and is worth attending both times. Securing a good spot requires patience and advance scouting, and while the views are ideal on Main Street, Frontierland is sometimes the better choice. It's where the parade begins and is typically less crowded than Main Street and the Town Square area. And the second parade is usually less busy than the first.\nThe \"Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular,\" is another of the Halloween party's signature events. Hosted by the Sanderson Sisters, the infamous witches from the 1993 Disney film \"Hocus Pocus,\" it's an entertaining, live-action show performed throughout the evening (8:15, 10:45, 12:00 a.m.) at Cinderella's Castle.\nAlong with the Sanderson Sisters, a host of Disney villains including Aladdin's Jafar and Cruella De Vil show up, as well as other ghouls like \"Oogie Boogie,\" a blobby monster from \"The Nightmare Before Christmas.\" Together they perform a series of tunes, including the show's climatic hit, \"I Put a Spell on You;\" the hit song from the movie.\nHands down the highlight of the night is the Happy Hallowishes fireworks display at 10:15 p.m. in the skies above Cinderella's Castle.\nDisney World's majestic centerpiece undergoes a spooky makeover and glows in ethereal purples and greens before sinister organ music plays and the voice of a ghost host booms through overhead speakers, proclaiming that it's the most 'spirted' season of them all.\nFrom there, it's an utterly frenetic display of lights, special effects, and fireworks set to some of Disney films' most famous villain tunes and \"This is Halloween,\" the theme song from \"The Nightmare Before Christmas.\"\nGravediggers, ghosts, and Haunted Mansion ghouls are all part of the Boo-To-You parade at Mickey\u2019s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. (David Roark)\nIt reaches a fever pitch at the finale when fireworks explode panoramically around the crowd and is nothing short of awe-inspiring in its grandeur.\nBeyond show-stopping events like the parade and fireworks, there are special appearances by 13 characters only seen at the Halloween party, including Jack Skellington, who routinely has the longest wait in the park for photographs, and Captain Barbossa from \"Pirates of the Caribbean\" fame.\nA Scream-O-Ween Ball is an all-ages dance party on the Rockettower Plaza Stage in Tomorrowland, and for shoppers there's an abundance of Halloween merchandise available at almost all of the retailers in the park.\nBut when it comes down to it, Disney knows that it's trick-or-treating that truly defines Halloween.\nUpon arrival, all guests, regardless of age, are provided with bags for use at more than a dozen treat stations throughout the park (with provisions made for guests with food allergies).\nFor kids, nothing beats the time-honored pursuit of candy, especially when the hunt takes place at the Magic Kingdom.\nFor the adults, however, it's something more. It's the chance to go back in time, however brief, and remember what it's like to be young again, with nothing more to worry about than enjoying the sweet spoils of a bag full of treats.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb UK Policy \u00bb Norman Baker on David Kelly\nNorman Baker on David Kelly 16\nBelow is an article from The Argus on Norman Baker MPs campaign over the death of David Kelly.\nI was convinced that Kelly was murdered from the moment I heard of his death. Since then we learn that so much that was put out was simply untrue, particularly about having ingested a lot of painkillers. It is very difficult indeed to die of slashed wrists in the open air and, as Baker notes, the paramedics at the scene were adamant there was not enough blood. The points Baker makes are all good. But for me, it has always been highly improbable that a chemical weapons specialist could not have killed himself with less pain, had he wanted to.\nThere remains no evidence at all that Kelly did want to die.\nThe Argus \u2013 2007-04-13\nThe greatest British conspiracy theory of the modern age was unveiled this week. Lewes MP Norman Baker set out in detail for the first time why he believes the secret service murdered the Government scientist Dr David Kelly.\nMILES GODFREY and KATYA MIRA report on a one-man crusade for the truth which has catapulted an unassuming Parliamentarian into the international spotlight.\nIt was the start of 2006 and the time was right to bring down the British Government. In March last year Norman Baker, serial thorn in the side of the establishment and by his own admission \u201cnot the Prime Minister\u2019s favourite person\u201d, resigned his role as a frontbench MP for the Liberal Democrats.\nIt was a typically low-key announcement, timed to coincide with the anointment of the party\u2019s new leader Sir Menzies Campbell.\nThe time had come, the MP said, for a new man to take over. But to those who knew Norman Baker, the decision to resign was made for another reason.\nIt would allow him more time to do what he does best: investigate, challenge, push, probe \u2013 specifically into the death of weapons expert Dr David Kelly. He was about to embark on an amazing investigation into the murky world of secret service agents, national security and the death of the man who very nearly halted the start of the war in Iraq.\nIf he could prove conclusively that members of the Government had conspired to get rid of Dr Kelly, it would have been \u2013 and still could be \u2013 the biggest single scandal this country has ever known.\nThe official report into the death of Dr David Kelly concluded he committed suicide after a row between the BBC and the Government over the \u201csexed up\u201d dossier on Iraq\u2019s supposed weapons of mass destruction thrust the normally private scientist into the glare of the limelight.\nBut Mr Baker didn\u2019t believe a word of it. He said at the time: \u201cThe public out there can smell a rat and they don\u2019t think it\u2019s finished business either.\u201d\nThe scientist\u2019s death was, the MP said, just too convenient, too riddled with inconsistencies and so unlike a man like Dr Kelly.\nHis year-long investigation culminated on Wednesday night at a meeting at which he proclaimed Dr Kelly had been murdered and set out his evidence. Mr Baker told a packed community hall in Lewes: \u201cI am convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that this could not be suicide. The medical evidence does not support it and David Kelly\u2019s state of mind and personality suggests otherwise. It was not an accident so I am left with the conclusion that it is murder.\u201d\nHe told of how the world\u2019s leading WMD expert had spent the morning before his death sending \u201cupbeat emails\u201d and even booking himself a flight to Iraq from his rural home in Southmoor, near Oxford.\nMr Baker questioned the cause of death \u2013 a haemorrhage caused by cuts to the ulnar artery in the wrist.\nHe said such wounds were \u201cmatchstick thick\u201d and hidden, difficult to get to, as well as rarely leading to death.\nThe knife said to have been used was a gardening pruner Dr Kelly had kept since childhood \u2013 an unlikely and blunt choice.\nParamedics have said he had lost little blood and was \u201cincredibly unlikely\u201d to have died from the wound they saw.\nPolice said 29 tablets of the painkiller Coproxamol were missing from his home but all that was found in Dr Kelly\u2019s stomach was the equivalent of one fifth of a tablet.\nThe MP told The Argus: \u201cIt has taken more than a year to investigate and it has been an incredible and fascinating journey which has taken a large number of twists and turns.\n\u201cI have met experts on weapons of mass destruction in Brussels and uncovered more evidence about the lies the Government told about weapons of mass destruction before the war.\u201d\nAlong the way Mr Baker has had personal run-ins with high-profile Government figures, not least Tony Blair.\nHe said: \u201cI wouldn\u2019t say it has been easy, certainly the Foreign Office has done a lot to put obstacles in my way and other people have too. It has been hard work but at the same time it has been extremely worthwhile.\u201d\nHe has also been hugely encouraged by the public, who he claims can see Dr Kelly\u2019s death for what he says it was. Mr Baker said: \u201cThere is a world in Westminster and the rest of the world and I think most people in the public world can see that Dr Kelly was murdered.\n\u201cHe was the world\u2019s foremost expert on weapons of mass destruction who could single-handedly destroy the Government\u2019s case for war so it was no wonder he was killed. \u201cIt may have also been intended as a message to other people out there who speak to the press when the Government doesn\u2019t want you to. \u201cI was appalled at his death and at the Hutton Inquiry into it. It was a procedural disaster from start to finish and I felt compelled to look into it.\u201d\nMr Baker has signed a book deal to explain in greater detail his findings on Dr Kelly\u2019s death and he expects to publish it later this year.\nBut the MP insists he will continue to investigate.\nHe has nagging doubts about the official line taken over the recent Navy hostages taken in Iran and over the death of Robin Cook, the MP who resigned in protest at the Iraq war.\nHe said: \u201cRobin Cook was on Ministry of Defence land, I believe, when he died and certainly I have doubts over what happened.\u201d\nThere are those, of course, who doubt Norman Baker\u2019s theories.\nBut for every person out there who does there are an equal number for whom the MP has become a beacon of truth in an increasingly murky world.\n16 thoughts on \u201cNorman Baker on David Kelly\u201d\ned April 15, 2007 at 01:06\nThe audio of the talk can be found here:\nmontazels April 15, 2007 at 08:43\nI have always felt that Dr. Kelly's death was Tony Blair's \"Thomas Becket\" incident.\nA \"Who wll rid me of this man?\" spur of the moment comment. That snowballed out of control eventually ending with Dr. Kelly's murder.\nThe clumsy way in which is was carried out also leads me to believe that neither MI5, nor MI6, were involved.\nBut until a full and open inquest is carried out we will all have to speculate as to the true events of this tragic death.\nHats off to Mr. Baker though for seeing this thru. It is just a pity more MPs were not more questioning of this government's actions.\nMontazels,\nI think it most likely this was private by one of the US companies that were pushing the war on Iraq. I know some senior MI6 people privately think this, too.\nHaving said that, I believe that the events at Chapter 18 of Murder in Samarkand were probably an attempt to kill me by the US government itself, as my efforts to prevent CIA involvement with torture in Uzbekistan were threatening the whole extraordinary rendition programme. So I don't rule out the CIA killing Kelly.\nI quite agree with your conclusion that part of the answer to this mystery lies over the pond.\nHaving seen how some of the members of USIC work. I think the actual deed was farmed out to sub-contractors in this country. With the cut-out of Middle Eastern involvement should this be exposed.\nChoamNomsky April 15, 2007 at 17:49\nI don't believe that the government would murder Dr Kelly. The gains are far too small when compared to the risks. It's very difficult to keep secrets like that. Things will inevitably leak.\nThis is one reason why 911 conspiracies have little credibility. To organise such a terrorist event would be a huge undertaking, and there would inevitably be a large number of leaks. No western government would take such a risk.\nThere are so many things our governments do that can be considered to be conspiracies, yet are true (e.g. Overthrowing Mossadegh in Iran) there is no need to waste time on those with so little credibility.\nIf you want to know whether a conspiracy is credible, a good starting point is to look at the history of government actions. Can you find a case of an important person (like Dr Kelly) being murdered by the government in the UK to silence them?\nIn contrast, look at the case of suggesting that the Iraq war is a conspiracy to control the oil (or some other asset). If you look at the history of British government action, we have certainly been involved in many conspiracies to control either oil or land. e.g. The coup in Iran, the Suez crisis etc. We did these things and the important point is that we now know about them. These things inevitably come out.\nMy point is that you need to look at the Modus Operandi of a particular government when judging the credibility of any accusations against them. Murdering top advisers may have been ok for Stalin and Hitler, but it would not work here. It would inevitably come out, and anyone ordering the murder would know that.\nChoamNomsky,\nYou are making less sense than usual. The government was not well-motivated, going to war with Iraw because of a genuine mistake over whether it possessed WMD. The Iraq war was a manufactured war, from which massive fortunes have been made,and not just by the oil industry. The US has already spent over $400 billion on the war. Less than 2% of that has gone on soldiers' pay. Where has the rest gone? Follow the money.\nCorporations have assassinated very many people who threatened major profits.\nInteresting consensus emerging here, trouble is;\n1- Why, MIx were all too ready to expose their assets, trying to explain away the death as a suicide?\n2- Kelly, was not the only one whom wound up dead, during the build up to and initial stages of war on Iraq. There are others whom have had a simmilar fate, ranging from friendly fire incidents, to falling off the roof in Irbil.\n3- If you have only a hammer in your toolbox, after a while everything will look like a nail.\n4- All of the contributions, apparently have overlooked the most volatile factor, the nemesis of any political leadership; the unpredictable masses.\nIn conclusion, Craig writes about his own experience, indicating the danger that he faced exposing the Uzbek's plight, he rightly concludes which factions could have been plotting his accelerated pushing up daisies mission.\nUK government were only embarrassed by Craig's expose, which of course they responded to by releasing the footage of him and his girlfriend (incidentally on the channel four news, emphasising the age of the girlfriend, and showing her affections and flirtatious behaviour), coupled with the usual whispering campaign and back-room debriefings.\nCraig at no time presented a threat to UK government, in fact he was perceived as a good news item to bury the bad news items. On the other hand Craig was perceived as a threat to the US government's ambitions in trying to maintain their ties with the Uzbek dictator, with a view to use his airfields, and getting toehold in the Putin's backyard by sporting yet another US military base. (Craig can clarify these points, seeing as this is his blog)\nIn case of Dr. Kelly, casting your minds back, and sifting through the various newscast, while the narrative was taking shape, you will find his last phone call was made from a public telephone booth, to US, and an alleged reporter. This could indicate the real source of anxiety for this poor man lay in our own shores, hence his efforts to find an impartial, and reliable source outside UK to tell his story, in a forlorn hope to ensure his longevity and survival.\nFinally, the best method of discounting any credible line of enquiry, evidently is to classify these as conspiracies, conflating selective bits and pieces together, and coming up with a rebuttal, reliant on the lack of sense by those at the receiving end of it all, which some would say is akin to a pipe dream.\nPS. Added after seeing Craig's last post.\nVery true Craig, in fact not many are left unaware of plans for going to war with Iraq, that were in the making since 1998, and well before the current US administration coming into power, on the back of the hanging chads, and Diebold miracles.\nIn fact one could speculate Operation Iraqi Freedom was under way with special interest groups taking up positions in the Hill, before getting down to the dirty. Conspiracy of course, specially when an ex insider writes about it, while others are all talking about it, and the contemporaneous data point to it, which of course some of which now are classified, despite these being in the public domain in the past.\nKaren Silkwood is a good example.\nMilkMonitor April 16, 2007 at 22:01\nChoamNomsky: \"I don't believe that the government would murder Dr Kelly. The gains are far too small when compared to the risks.\"\nWhich gains would those be that are far too small?\nObviously not the trillions of dollars in armaments and reconstruction, control of oil and disruption of the ME.\nCraig said: \"I think it most likely this was private by one of the US companies that were pushing the war on Iraq. I know some senior MI6 people privately think this, too.\"\nThis is an important post. I very much doubt that Blair ordered the murder (even in a \"who will rid me of this turbulent weapons inspector\" moment), and Choam Nomsky is half-right \u2013 Blair & Campbell's No.10, constantly obsessed by how it was being reported, would have thought killing him in the midst of a total media furore way too risky to contemplate.\nWith the information I have seen to date I have for some time thought that the most plausible explanation of what the British security services were doing at the crime scene (standing down the local constabulary for however many hours and so on) was hurriedly finding out what had happened and removing evidence.\nCan you imagine the scene in No 10 as the report came in that yes he was dead and that MI5 suspected an American agency had done it? They would be bricking it. A cover up would be of paramount importance. The idea of an inquiry announced quickly was a clever one \u2013 the govt that always resists inquiries into itself suddenly looked good at the time by announcing an inquiry quickly and appearing to come clean by releasing emails, for example \u2013 but all the time they knew that the inquiry would find nothing incriminating in No 10's email accounts about murdering Kelly, just lots of stuff about doing battle with the BBC that would grab all the attention. Appointing Hutton \u2013 a man who could be relied on to give the right verdict at the end of the process without needing to be leaned on by the government \u2013 was clever, but the masterstroke was to say that the Inquiry superseded any need for a local coroner's inquest \u2013 a local level process that would correspondingly be far more difficult to control. So, one way of understanding the Hutton Inquiry is to think of it as a means of distracting attention from the really damaging evidence (from the local medics etc) that this was no suicide.\nI await \"Stormin' Norman\" Baker's book with great interest. I hope he has considered the possibility that it was neither suicide nor a British Govt-sponsored murder, but a third party sponsored murder obligingly covered up by the British secret services. The BBC's Conspiracy Files programme on 26 Feb, whilst airing ridiculous ideas, eg the Iraqi secret services did it (!), noticeably failed to give any time whatsoever to the possibility that the Americans had done it.\nFinally, on a theme we must often return to, isn't it funny that Norman Baker's pronouncements last week, which one might have thought just slightly newsworthy, have been utterly blanked by the London media and are going totally unreported outside Sussex? Clearly the carrier pigeon hasn't quite made it across the North Downs to Fleet Street yet!\nCraig: \"You are making less sense than usual.\"\nWell I'm usually agreeing with you, so this is understandable. I agree with the point you have made, i.e. that the Iraqi war was a manufactured war. However, this does not address the point I was making. i.e. That the UK government does not have a history of murdering inconvenient citizens like Dr Kelly. If the government did indeed have a history of bumping off whistle-blowers and troublesome civil servants, then I would certainly take the Dr Kelly suggestions seriously. As I have said, governments have a great deal of trouble keeping things secret for long, and if we did have a history of killing people like Dr Kelly, it would have come out, just as many other revelations have.\nWhat western governments tend to do with troublesome people is rubbish them in the media and attack their credibility in various ways. Both the UK and US governments have a long history of that practise.\nCraig: \"Corporations have assassinated very many people who threatened major profits.\"\nTrue. In fact they have had coups organised to take over entire countries (e.g. United Fruits and Guatemala). What they don't generally do though is murder prominent people in western countries, the countries they tend to be based in.\nStrangely you can get away with wrecking a whole third world country, but if you murder a UK citizen, you are in real trouble. Anyway, I thought the suggestion was that the government might have murdered Dr Kelly, not some corporation.\nCraig: \"Karen Silkwood is a good example.\"\nShe died in a car crash and there is no real evidence to suggest it was foul play. As for the Plutonium in her body, it is not at all clear how it got there. The family sued the company for inadequate safety practises. Whereas people might like to imagine that the company tried to kill her with Plutonium, then organised a car accident, you have to have evidence, and there is none. You can get away with wrecking third world countries, killing hundreds of thousands of people, just to increase your share value, but murdering western civilians is a no no.\nSome people think that she stole plutonium and contaminated herself to discredit the company. This seems just as silly as the murder suggestion. I certainly wouldn't contaminate myself with Plutonium just to get back at my employer.\nMilkMonitor: \"Which gains would those be that are far too small?\"\n\"Obviously not the trillions of dollars in armaments and reconstruction, control of oil and disruption of the ME.\"\nWhat damaging things could he say? That they sexed the dossier up? You have to balance that against the risk of killing him. Do remember that his death caused a lot of bad media attention for the government.\nEveryone knows the whole war was not about WMD anyway. That much is hardly a conspiracy. They fact that we all know it has not stopped them from staying there for several years, transferring billions from US taxpayers to US corporations in the process.\nI have found a nice Youtube video where Noam Chomsky addresses the issue of 911 conspiracies. His points apply quite well to the Dr Kelly conspiracy and it covers some of the points I have tried to make. It's well worth watching (part 2 is the main point)\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzGd0t8v-d4\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoDqDvbgeXM&mode=r\u2026\nDave52 April 18, 2007 at 09:36\nI believe there is a bigger picture here. Don't forget David Kelly was a biological weapons expert. He is just one in an ever growing list of dead scientists this century.\nhttp://www.stevequayle.com/dead_scientists/Update\u2026\nChoamNomsky: \"As I have said, governments have a great deal of trouble keeping things secret for long, and if we did have a history of killing people like Dr Kelly, it would have come out, just as many other revelations have.\"\nWell, there are ways of stopping these things coming out. This is the proposition here, of course, as regards Dr Kelly. But that other aspect of Norman Baker's work, in which he shows what happened afterwards to the people involved in the Kelly affair, reflects an alternative way of stopping these things coming out \u2013 reward for silence:\n\"Promotions, pay rises honours \u2013 how the key players in the Kelly scandal were rewarded\"\nhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/ne\u2026\nThanks for those links to Chomsky. I was very interested to see them, having heard of his stance a while back.\nI have to say that I am stunned to hear a renowned intellectual talking like this.\nHe takes the same position as you in saying \"Secrets are very hard to keep. Something would have leaked out.\"\nChomsky's basic defence of his position is: \"because lots of things are unexplained in complicated events\" and \"the belief that it could have been done has such low credibilty\".\nBut he really hits bottom when he says:\n\"Even if it were true, which is extremely unlikely, who cares? I mean, it doesn't have any significance.\" and \"It's just diverting energy from serious issues onto one's that don't matter.\"\nWhat the hell does he mean: who cares? I care. I care particularly for my kids and grandkids and what quality of world they'll be living in. I also care about what my predecessors fought for.\nConsider, if 9/11 was a false flag operation, then the consequences are horrendous. They only start with aggressive wars; expansion of the military, intelligence and security services; Patriot Acts; Bush's signing statements*; acceptance of torture; suspension of habeus corpus: who cares?\n*signing statements:\nhttp://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2006/0\u2026\nI disagree with Chomsky. I think this is a very serious issue that deserves better than a whitewash from him. The \"diverting energy from serious issues\" line is the clarion cry of the truth-hiders. Blair used it when denouncing a public inquiry into the London bombings as a \"ludicrous diversion\". The 911 Commission budget, timing, conduct and final report hardly signify that it was treated as a serious issue: as made clear to the families of victims, when they asked for truth and justice \u2013\nhttp://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=3979568\u2026\nmmm, Karen Silkwood decided to poison herself with pltonium, then had a car accident?\nI submitted this comment a couple of days ago. It seems that it didn't pass monitoring.\nI do not believe the content is offensive or erroneous (I certainly hope it isn't). It may have appeared that I had strayed from the topic. I have added a final paragragh which corrects this, and hope that this submission will now be acceptable.\nWhat the hell does he mean? Who cares? I care. I care particularly for my kids and grandkids and what quality of world they'll be living in. I also care about what my predecessors fought for.\nI don't see the comparison as a similarity between the Kelly case and 9/11 conspiracy theories. I see them as similar in that in both cases the truth was prevented from coming out.\nMilkMonitor June 4, 2007 at 09:52\nI submitted this comment at the time of the debate, but thought it hadn't passed monitoring. However, I read your post about problems with Tiscali, so I figure it possibly didn't get through. I send it again but, having also read your post on your letter from Chomsky, I wonder whether this comment will yet pass monitoring (just joking).\nWhat can he mean? Who cares? I care. I care particularly for my kids and grandkids and what quality of world they'll be living in. I also care about what my predecessors fought for.\nConsider, if 9/11 was a false flag operation, then the consequences are horrendous. They only start with aggressive wars; expansion of the military, intelligence and security services; Patriot Acts; Bush's signing statements*; acceptance of torture; suspension of habeus corpus\u2026\n\u2190 The Olympia Refugees and the Bastards at Tesco Insurance\nSunday Morning Blues \u2192",

        "title": "Is the Pope Right about the Death Penalty? - Russell Moore Christian Blog",
        "raw_content": "Is the Pope Right about the Death Penalty?\nPope Francis called on Sunday for the abolition of the death penalty worldwide. In a speech to those gathered in Saint Peter\u2019s Square at the Vatican he said that the mandate to oppose the death penalty comes from the Ten Commandments. \u201cThe commandment \u2018You shall not kill\u2019 has absolute value and applies to both the innocent and the guilty,\u201d he said. Some may wonder, then, whether consistent Christianity ought to, as the Pope says, mandate moral and political objection to capital punishment in all circumstances.\nLet me first say where I agree with the Pope. He is absolutely right about the value of human life. I am glad that he has spoken up against a culture of death that sees life as, in his words, \u201cdisposable.\u201d He is also right about the church\u2019s responsibility to prisoners, to remember those who are jailed, to minister to them, and to work against policies that violate human dignity or harden criminals in their criminality.\nThat said, I cannot agree with Pope Francis that the death penalty is, in all circumstances, a violation of the command not to murder.\nThere is, of course, a stream of Christian thought that consistently opposes the death penalty. This is the pacifist tradition, represented in many places in the ancient church and in, for example, Anabaptist churches. The pacifist view sees all killing as morally wrong, under all circumstances. This view opposes not only capital punishment but also war or military action. This tradition would forbid Christians from serving in the military or from authorizing lethal action as civil magistrates with responsibility for military or police forces. At least since Augustine, the Roman Catholic Church has defended the principle of \u201cjust war\u201d in at least some circumstances, as has most of Protestantism. But that\u2019s where the debate is: is every act of killing murder, or not?\nIf one believes the state can order the military to kill opposing combatants in war, one does not, by definition, believe that every instance of the state killing is a violation of the commandment not to murder.\nIn fact, the Mosaic Law in which the Ten Commandments are revealed provides for capital punishment in multiple instances. To be sure, the civil aspects of the Mosaic covenant do not apply outside of the theocratic order of the Old Testament covenant nation of Israel. The new covenant applies a command of capital punishment in the old covenant to church excommunication in the new (1 Cor. 5:13; Deut. 13:5). Even so, the point here is that the Mosaic Law itself draws a distinction between murder and lawful execution by the state.\nMoreover, the application of the death penalty predates the Mosaic code. In the covenant with Noah, God forbade murder and simultaneously made provision for the death penalty in some instances. \u201cWhoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image,\u201d God declared (Gen. 9:6). Those who oppose the death penalty would say that this merely describes the reality rather than proscribing it. And yet, God seems to ground the shedding of blood by man in the dignity of human life. Humanity, created in the image of God, is of such value that to murder is to bear the most awful consequences imaginable, the forfeiture of one\u2019s own life.\nIn the New Testament, Jesus and then his apostles forbid the church from exercising vengeance on anyone (Matt. 5:38-44), and even from exercising judgment over those on the outside (1 Cor. 5:12). And yet, in Romans 13, right after the Apostle Paul has called Christians away from vengeance (Rom. 12:14-21), Paul speaks of the Roman state \u201cbearing the sword\u201d against \u201cevildoers\u201d by God\u2019s own authority (Rom. 13:1-5). Some have argued (unconvincingly, in my view) that this \u201cbearing the sword\u201d is police power, not death penalty. But police power, if armed with lethal arms, always carries at least the possibility of the death of the evildoer. If that is always and everywhere murder, then it deserves the full sanction of God\u2019s moral judgment.\nPaul does no such thing, even though the Bible elsewhere clearly calls out as unjust and immoral the state\u2019s execution of the innocent (Rev. 20:4). The thief on the cross, in his repentance, recognizes that his actions are indeed deserving of the punishment he was receiving, which was death, while Jesus\u2019 execution was not deserved and thus unjust (Lk. 23:41).\nThis does not settle the question of whether we ought to have capital punishment. There are, in many places, serious problems with the application of capital punishment. DNA evidence has uncovered places where innocent people were executed; such is immoral and an act of public injustice (Prov. 17:15). There are in many places racial and economic disparities in capital punishment. Such is an abomination to a God who is impartial and demands impartiality in justice. These are problems not just with capital punishment but with almost every aspect of criminal justice, including prison sentencing.\nChristians can debate whether a state should declare a moratorium on capital punishment while reforming unjust sentencing practices. Christians can debate whether the death penalty is effective as a deterrent or whether the death penalty is meaningful at all in a world in which legal systems delay for years the application of the penalty. These are prudential debates about how best to order our political systems, not debates about whether every act of state killing is murder and thus immoral and unjust.\nThe Pope is here making more than just a prudential argument. He is applying the commandment against murder to every application of capital punishment. On that, I believe he is wrong. We may disagree, with good arguments on both sides, about the death penalty. But as we do so, we must not lose the distinction the Bible makes between the innocent and the guilty. The gospel shows us forgiveness for the guilty through the sin-absorbing atonement of Christ, not through the state\u2019s refusal to carry out temporal justice.\nCan the Church Disengage from Politics?\nWhat My Grandmother Taught Me about the Church\nCan the Church Disengage from Politics?

        "title": "For some, real Olympics ahead - CSMonitor.com",
        "raw_content": "For some, real Olympics ahead\nTrack and field starts Friday to high US hopes\nBy Douglas S. Looney Senior sports columnist of The Christian Science Monitor\nThe 2000 Olympics really start tomorrow.\nIndeed, for all the glories and wonders of this extravaganza that encompasses everything from judo to beach volleyball, the signature event is track and field.\nThere can be chatter about badminton and water polo and trampoline. There can be flirtation with gymnastics. Swimming has a serious relationship with fans. But for many enthusiasts the true and meaningful love affair that lasts forever is with track and field. And for them from tomorrow until the men's marathon on the final day, Oct. 1, the real Olympics unfold.\nThat's especially true of millions of Americans, for understandable reasons: The United States is by far the most successful and dominant competitor in Olympic track and field history, winning 287 gold medals. The runner-up is the Soviet Union, with 69. Overall, the US has won 668 medals of all hues to 204 for the Soviets (and later Russia).\nAs track-and-field athletes prepare to strut their stuff, the US may be on the brink of hauling off another mother lode.\nMarion Jones will soon begin her assault on her self-set goal: to win five gold medals. Her events are the 100 and 200 meters, the 4x100 and 4x400 relays, and the long jump. Jones's determination seems in place - \"I don't handle failure very well,\" she says.\nBut events beyond her control could conspire against her. An obvious peril is present in the relays, where a single bobble passing the baton between runners - not necessarily involving Jones - could torpedo her plans. Or one of her teammates could have a slow-feet day.\nBeyond this, experts remain concerned by her lack of solid technique and consistency in the long jump. Optimists reply that she only will need one good leap and that she clearly has the athletic talent to do it. Qualifying heats in the 100 meters start tomorrow, with the finals Saturday. The buzz is that Jones should cruise in both the 100 and 200 meters. Yet, there is always room for a slip up. No American woman has ever won five golds in a single Olympics.\nThe other dominating American story is 400-meter sprinter Michael Johnson, who has won 17 international gold medals and five world titles. At a press conference here yesterday, Johnson was his usual ultra-confident self, saying that \"somebody is going to win, and my plan is to win.\"\nJohnson won both the 200- and 400-meter races at Atlanta in 1996. His dazzling success there was life-changing. He describes it: \"More of everything. More money. More pressure. More expectation. More time constraints. More appearances.\"\nBut he will not be in the 200 here, because he was injured in the trials and didn't finish. Therefore, he failed to qualify. Never mind his fame, fortune, and the fact he'll be competing less here than in Atlanta. Johnson emphasizes his focus must be on \"running fast.\" His heart, and he hopes his feet, are set on bettering his world record of 43.18 seconds in the 400.\nJohnson's world record in the 200 of 19.32 seconds, run in Atlanta, is a mark many believe is safe forever. He'd like to put his 400 time below 43 seconds, which also would be regarded as unassailable. To this end, Nike is doing its part. At a press conference complete with plenty of pomp and an overload of circumstance, the shoes Johnson will race in were unveiled. They feature droplets of 24-karat gold.\n\"I'm very pleased with the shoe,\" said Johnson on corporate cue, \"as you can tell by the smile on my face.\"\nBeyond Jones and Johnson, Maurice Greene has in mind improving on his 100-meter world record of 9.79 seconds. Adam Nelson, who suddenly is shot-putting five feet farther than last year, has golden thoughts in the shot put. Chris Huffins is thinking success in the decathlon. Allen Johnson is the top pick in the 110-meter hurdles, and Angelo Taylor might be golden in the 400-meter hurdles, observers here say.\nOn the women's side, veteran Gail Devers looks primed to finally medal in the 100-meter hurdles after many disappointments. Sandra Glover could score in the 400-meter hurdles. In the Olympics debut for women's pole vaulting, America's Stacy Dragila is a big favorite.\nOlympic medal count: A day of ups and downs for the US women\nLondon 2012 hurdles preview: Women's 100-meter is the race to watch\nOlympic medal count: US hot on the track",

Hey Vala how are you?\n(00:31) Michael, thank you very much for that enthusiastic introduction and I\u2019m just honored and thrilled to have Tim on the show today. Welcome Tim.\n(00:41) I\u2019m very glad to be on the show too. I\u2019ve always wanted to be in the office of (Louis and Hal it\u2019s like a classic episode)\n(00:5) Vala I\u2019m not sure whether we were just complimented or insulted.\n(00:54) I don\u2019t know but it doesn\u2019t matter\u2026\n(00:56) It sounded good.\nI\u2019m still delighted.\n(00:58)And you say you\u2019re from Boston?\n(01:02) We\u2019re from Boston.\n(01:03) Alright, so end with the in jokesokay, let\u2019s get to the show.\n(01:04) You know for us this is it.\n(01:11) Tim could you please briefly share with our audience a little bit about your background. Although I think most people will know but would love to hear from you.\n(01:18) Yeah, I\u2019m the founder and CEO of O\u2019Reilly Media. Started my company many many years ago as a tech writing consulting firm. Became a publisher and realized that most of my books were about topics that were coming from the fringes originally wekind of made it big, we wrote early books about the internet, UNIX and then open source software. Then I realized that nobody was promoting this, so I started a conference business to help promote open source software.\n(01:48) Somewhere along the line I realized that a big part of our most effective marketing was a kind of activism. Getting Brian Erwin, who had been the Director of Activism for The Sierra Club and came to work for me and at that time published The Whole Internet Users Guide. We just went out there and he said \u2018nobody cares about your products, you know pitch the ideas.\u2019 So we went out there and promoted the internet and then of course people said, well how do I learn more.\n(02:19)And as part of that we also discovered the World Wide Web early on and we created a product called GNN (Global Network Navigator), which we originally thought of as a demo of the World Wide Web that we would host in bookstores. And then we said, no this isn\u2019t a demo, it\u2019s a product. So it became the first web portal and we eventually sold it to AOL and they screwed it up so that was the end of that.\n(02:43) I\u2019ve basically been around technology know you as somebody who has helped move the story forward. Our mission as we kind of retrospectively defined it back around 2000 was, \u2018changing the world by spreading the knowledge of an innovators\u2019. So that was something that tied altogether all the things we do. We were publishing and had events, now we have much more of an integrated media model, where we\u2019ve launched Safari as an online subscription service to our learning content, books and video.\n(03:19) Back in 2000, we launched a small early stage venture fund, but all these things are tied together by this notion of changing the world by spreading the knowledge of innovators. We find interesting people who are doing stuff that other people want to do and then we try to figure out the best way to spread that knowledge for the future to make it faster and better.\n(03:39) You know, reading about your early stage venture fund, I was really struck by the fact that two things, one you say that you do not seek the typical charismatic entrepreneur and you say that the best way to get funded isn\u2019t necessarily usually the way to get funded is to have some type of personal contact with you or the other people running the fund.\n(04:13) You know, I\u2019m not sure or I don\u2019t know when or where I said that. I have nothing against charismatic entrepreneurs, but what I will say in what we\u2019re most attracted to are people with ambitious ideas that have sort of some kernel of value to them.\n(04:33) You know, like if you look at one of our investments, Planet Labsyou know, they have this big vision you know we\u2019re going to beat this game changing and the way wer\u2019e going to make data available. They\u2019re a microsatellite company. They\u2019re imaging the surface of the earth every 24 hours as opposed to you get an image you know once a year. You know this enable all kinds of new things. Super cool, you know geeks out of NASA who just love the fact that they\u2019re just so into the technology. But we also loved it when they had a game changing vision.\n(05:07) So you know, it\u2019s really just the combination of many infact are charismatic, but what we\u2019re not interested in are the people from the get-go gunning for the exits. You know I started my company with no venture capital, just with the idea that we would find customers and we funded the business ever since by finding people who are willing to pay us for what we do.\n(05:39) And I find that, there are certainly times when venture capital is the right way to grow a business, but there\u2019s also a whole class of entrepreneur who is often overlooked.\n(05:53) We\u2019ve recently launched something called (inde.bc?) which is really how do we bring some of the skills and the perspective that a venture capitalist brings but through a small company without this kind of model that says, you know, we\u2019re going to put money in and we\u2019re going to expect to get it out within the 10 year horizon with our fund because you know we need to have an exit and that\u2019s what this is all about.\n(06:16) You know instead of saying we may be interested in building a company for the long term. I\u2019ve been building O\u2019Reilly media for 35 years and very successful company and is a really good thing own. And we have a lot of opportunities when people wanted to buy it and we have not been interested. It doesn\u2019t mean that would never happen but you know we were obsessed with our mission you know and we weren\u2019t obsessed with well, what\u2019s our next round of financing and you know when does that lead to an exit. And I have to say this, there are far too many companies like that.\n(06:55) The really big successful ones have a mission, and you know you see companies with a mission and you see entrepreneurs with a mission, and I guess I would say that sense of mission is what we work for.\n(07:08) So your confidence and investments is it fair to stay focused on as Michael said, geeks and disruptive innovation and certainly core values and missions matter, but can you talk a little bit about the word disruption. What does that mean to you? Is that a fair assessment of what your confidence tracks? No Okay- no good.\n(07:28)I have to say I find that the religion of disruption to be somewhat offensive quite frankly. You know I am about creating things and yes, disruption \u2013 creative disruption are part of a process. You have a vision of what you\u2019re building, and you know, we\u2019re going to disrupt this, we\u2019re going to disrupt that is first of all it\u2019s cheap thinking.\n(08:00) You know when Logan Green started what became Lyft you know he wasn\u2019t sitting there you know which inspired a lot of part of Uber that everybody is you know so excited about.\n(08:13) He wasn\u2019t into disrupting transformation, he was into creating a better transportation system. He was a transportation geek, he\u2019d been on you know the transportation board in LA and the he went to Zimbabwe and said wow, we have a system here in the US that serves 5% of the people and had massive losses. Over there they gotten this jitney system that for 95% of the people that really works and could we use technology to create something like that and then Uber came in with that really wonderful one point vision and then these two companies are playing leapfrog in terms with innovation.\n(08:53) They are reinventing you know and then when you look back, Henry Ford wasn\u2019t saying I want to you know disrupt the horse and buggy market. He had a forward looking vision of a kind of society that he wanted to create. And I think that positive way of framing it is so much more powerful and important because you know were just going to go and break up this old market and won\u2019t that be great. It doesn\u2019t really tell us what we\u2019re going to replace it with.\n(09:24) Well there is this notion when people talk about disruption in this way there is this notion of financial engineering in a sense in order to accumulate great wealth for the people who are undertaking that manipulation or disruption, which I think are synonyms in that sense. So there really doesn\u2019t have to be from that point of view a sense of vision and I think sometimes people graft the sense of vision on top of it as a kind of a dressing up or cosmetic for the desire.\n(10:02) You could say oh yeah, the guys who did all the CEO\u2019s who disrupted the mortgage market, you know and they created this enormous wealth for themselves but they managed to screw the rest of us pretty badly. And so I think it\u2019s so important for us all in Silicon Valley to have a sense of value.\n(10:21) And you know, the thing that I have found in my career, that\u2019s an awful lot of the most interesting movement actually start \u2013 not even with entrepreneurs but with people who are having fun. You know, if you look at the defining you know technology waves of my career that I\u2019ve been part of to start with you know the Internet. You know in the early days nobody thought there was money to be made.\n(10:51) Think about open source software, in the beginning nobody thought there was money to be made. After the dot com bust, the web 2.0 we talked about, nobody thought there was money to be made. Half the people who did part of the previous were out of work and they were doing the things that they just felt were cool again.\n(11:07) (The Maker Movement?) and you know I\u2019m deeply involved in some of the open government movements where people who have been in big tech companies going to work and you know for the government or for working with the government, because they wanted fix the services in our society. So it\u2019s this combination of, hey, I don\u2019t care about making money. I just want to make something really cool.\n(11:32) There was this actually wonderful talk \u2013 I was just down in Porto Rico and it was a hackathon a Code for America Porto Rico chapter hackathon. They call them the Code of American brigades. And this woman gave a talk and it was really about you know, being an entrepreneur and she said, \u2018you know being an entrepreneur you know means that we are not waiting for somebody else to deliver what we want. You know, we\u2019re creating our own future.\u2019\n(12:06) I think the way that we and technology need to think is we are creators, not just of our own future but for the future for a lot of other people, and I think we have a great deal of responsibility as the creators of the future, to say is this going to be a better future.\n(12:27) And that doesn\u2019t mean that we don\u2019t disrupt, and there is no question that says for taking the current you know disruptive darlings, Uber, and AirBnB. They are disruptive to you know the taxi industry and the same way that you know Amazon was disruptive to retailers, or Google was disruptive to all kinds of content providers.\n(12:47)But they\u2019re grim and fundamentally by a positive vision of wouldn\u2019t this be great for people if the world worked this way. And I think the way we talk about it, we need to celebrate \u2013 not the disruption but the creation.\n(13:06) So is this notion of creation and creating in a positive sense, being interwoven with some sense of responsible mission. Does that underlie the various activities in which you\u2019re engaged and in which allow the media\u2026\n(13:31) Can you give us some examples of companies that are having fun with the right core values and you know market makers and doing it for the right reason, right mission I mean we mentioned disruption with Uber and AirBnB. You know, Tesla , Google , you know the Internet of things, the autonomous cars, it seems like it doesn\u2019t matter the size of the company if organizations have the right core values and mission, they can be having fun and creating value.\n(14:04) I think that\u2019s absolutely true, and the thing that I would say is in a lot of ways that seemed to be almost a stage of companies. You know I think Google of you know, 10 or 15 years ago was having a lot more fun than the Google of today. Even although, you know Larry and Serge really are you know deeply committed and value driven.\n(14:33) I think you get to a certain size and the logic of the machine takes over. But you know, I think there are a lot of people there who are \u2013 and all of these tech companies you know who are super excited about what they do. And I you know, that\u2019s what I\u2019m drawn to, you know it\u2019s that excitement. And you know you talk to some tech person and they are wrestling you know deeply with a problem and they are excited about solving that problem. That\u2019s just like (meet and drink something?15:10)\n(15:12) You know I just met this morning, I\u2019m working on a new event which I haven\u2019t announced yet and it\u2019s really about the future of work and how everything from the on demanding economy to you know, new forms of training. Augmented reality is going to change you know the nature of work coming the Fall in San Francisco.\n(15:32) And you know it was a meeting with you know this guy who is a chief economist at GE. He is just like super engaged with the same problemsand it\u2019s just like, oh my god, this is so awesome!\n(15:43) You know, we are thinking hard about how we are going to solve these problems for the future. You know I met recently with Tom Pritzker, the chairman of Hyatt and you know he is not a guy that is just sitting there, you know being reactionary against the future. He is like grappling with the real problems of how do I transform my business, you know in this era where you know the rules have changed. And you know since everybody from old industries to new industries, there are people who are you know, they see the future and they are trying to guide their company towards that future. And you know, sometimes it\u2019s by sculpting what you\u2019re doing. I mean certainly my own career we were originally a disruptor in publishing, and then publishing itself got disrupted and you know we have moved into other businesses, and we\u2019ve had to kind of manage legacy and new stuff.\n(16:43) It\u2019s all, you know \u2013 anyway whatever. It reminds me somehow back to this idea of having fun, Paul Hawken, once wrote a book called Building A Business, and in it he said, \u2018Every business has problems. The difference between a good business and a bad business is that a good business has interesting problems.\u2019\n(17:09) You know, when I was in high school I wrote Paul Hawken a letter, this was way before the days of the Internet. Because I just admired him so much, and my letter was, you know I\u2019m trying to figure out what I should do. Should I get an MBAand was in college. And he wrote back you know a paper letter, and he said I never really got an MBA, so I can\u2019t really tell you what to do.\nYou know part of what you are describing though seems to me, in terms of investments and technologies and so forth, there is a time horizon element because the entire venture or much of the venture capital industry is structured around very short time horizons, whereas in your case you incubated or developed your business organically over a very long period of time.\nSo it seems like what you\u2019re describing in some sense to some degree is almost incompatible with the typical venture model of that just demands, intense growth very fast.\n(18:22) You know, yes and no; there is the myth and the reality. The reality is you know venture capitalists are better in many cases. I mean, the really good ones actually know how to get in there and help build a company, but there is a huge amount of venture capitalists who are just like they are sitting at the crap table or roulette table and they\u2019re putting their money on such and such and hoping.\n(18:56) Yes, they locked that exit. But the good ones know that they are building a business, and they know that they are building a business for the long term. And you know, even when they fail that\u2019s their ambition. And you know, I actually find that there are a lot more entrepreneurs in my opinion who have bought into the quick flip I mean it\u2019s actually system, both the VCs and the entrepreneurs.\n(19:29) But you know, when Larry and Serge started Google, they were not sitting there looking for the flip. They had an engine they had their teeth into and had an interesting problem, and you know there were doing this thing as a project and then it kind of out grew when they were getting picked out at Stamford. You know, and you look at that and then some people came along and said okay, we\u2019ll help you become a business, and then they get some real coaching and some help. And then they build a big world changing business.\n(20:03) I think that is really the ambition of every VC and should be the ambition of every entrepreneur. And it doesn\u2019t have to be as big as Google. You know, I looked in my company and there are 500 employees and a couple of hundred million in revenue, where we have I think change the world, created meaningful.\n(20:22) There is a lot of Internet companies and vey big ones where I started O\u2019Reilly books. In fact one of our slogans that came out that year around 2000 and Brian Irwin again said that should be our slogan, \u2018create more value than you can capture\u2019. You know, we sold you a $35 book, and you made a billion-dollar business, that\u2019s pretty awesome.\n(20:50) And it\u2019s exciting, and you know and I love that and I remember once I was in a conference and somebody came up to me. I can\u2019t remember who he was and said, you know I done something innovative and I was really scared that I was going to lose the job. Then in one of your talks, you said it was really cool, and so instead I got a promotion. You know and I love that story.\n(21:14) Here we had that at Code for Americaand I remember it was when we were working on open data in the first year and I think it was in Philadelphia, and this guy was like, well you know I\u2019m not supposed to do this you know, but I\u2019m going to give you this data that you are asking for. And then they made something of it and it was like, by the end of the year he was a hero.\n(21:36) You know, and that kind of change in culture that can happen in the course of you know, that\u2019s kind of disruption to, you know when people who have had successful jobs in high-tech and now going to work in government to try and fix really hard problems, that\u2019s disruption.\n(22:00) Tell us about Code for America. You just mentioned it and our audience would love to know more about that.\n(22:06) Yes, first disclosure, its founder and run by my wife, Jennifer Polka, so I\u2019m very definitely an interested party and I\u2019m on the board as well. But a lot of what we do and one way you can think about it is a Peace Corps for geeks. It started out with the program, The Code for America Fellowship, which put small start-up teams in the cities to work on interesting problems, and there is a sort of number of route to scaling from there.\n(22:40) You know sometimes the city adopts the technology and comes the official programme there, but we are also really not just looking to the product, but also to the culture chain. So they go, oh we thought that was a $6 million project that we had to hire a vendor for. You did in six weeks; there must be something wrong with our process.\n(23:06) You know, there are all these people that would write white papers about bringing better technology to government, although there is nothing as effective as actually demonstrating that it\u2019s possible to do you know apply these new approaches to the problem that they have been told that are really hard, and you just need that Oracle upgrade and we can do it for you.\n(23:28) So that\u2019s one vector and another vector is sessions while you keep going, so we\u2019ve had fellows who have gone on to start companies. You know, we had a project whereby were doing white status and that meant a lot of data extraction and visualization in the city of New Orleans and now they have a business called Civic Insights, and they help cities that do that kind of thing. Or (Textism?) Is another company that routed a Fellowship project and it was okay how can we use text messaging to have planning departments get input and forces of those who show up at planning meetings.\n(24:05) So these are interesting small problems, but then there are other models, and we did in 2013 we work with a city in the County of San Francisco on a problem that they had with food stamps. Like they had this churn in the system were people apply and then they fail to meet some requirements. And then they fall out of the program and have to reapply and it is costly for them, and costly for us. You know and can you help us with this, and they go can we apply for food stamps.\n(24:39) So they basically just debugged the process. I mean it was just (a user set of design?), and it was, hey we\u2019ve got this letter can you tell me what to do, and can you figure out what to do when you get this letter. And it was, well no, so why do you think somebody with English is a second language who dropped out of high school, or doesn\u2019t have a fixed address is going to get this letter from your lawyers and know what to do.\n(25:04) Now, we get a text message that says, you know there is a problem with your benefits, call the office. You know, and that\u2019s now grown and we are kind of doing some work with the entire state of California, to try and show them but you know it is still like a big a vendor who is maintaining this 20 \u2013 30 years old system written in COBOL, and it\u2019s like can you nudge that in the right direction.\n(25:32) But there is a lot of different models, and there is now a venture fund called the (Gupvec fund?) which kind of came out of Code for America, where we are funding start-ups.\n(25:41) And again, back to disruption you could say well we are \u2018disrupting government\u2019\u2013 no, what we are really trying to do is. Here\u2019s the thing, Jen gave this great talk once. She said, if we didn\u2019t care about the problems within our society that would be one thing. But we do care about them and we allocate enormous resources to try and fix them, but we fail because we are doing it so badly.\n(26:10) You can really say the mission for Code for America which is non- (Republican?)It\u2019s basically, if you look at the scale of resources that we are putting towards hard problems, whether it\u2019s you know in policing, healthcare, or access to social services or economic development. And you go making those resources work more effectively actually addresses both the Republican perspective that government is too big and the Democratic perspective, but look we still have all these problems. And you know the answer yes, you both kind of saying the same thing, which is allocating these resources to solve important problems, and we are allocating them badly, because we are actually not bringing the latest technology.\n(27:01) You know, these government technology problems, actually what seemed to be technology problems, we had a show with our mutual friend, David Bray, who is the CIO for the FCC, and Craig Newmark, who of course founded craigslist, and who is working very closely with the VA and other organizations in the government. And the focus of that conversation was on the cultural don\u2019t mention, because simply changing technology alone does not address the issue as you were describing contractors who have a vested interest in multi-decade projects. So it seems like there has to be some sort of intersection between the technology and the culture and the change agents as David Bray describes them.\n(27:57) Absolutely so you know, celebrating and enabling and supporting change agents is a huge part of what we do. And again that\u2019s really consistent with everything that what wo do at O\u2019Reilly to. Because if you look at, again the history of some of the movements that we\u2019ve been involved with, you know in the beginning open source was this thing that nobody took seriously and being able to tell a story that validated it was an important part of that acceptance.\n(28:31) And I think again, a big part of what I do is framing in some sense. You know with open source versus free software for example, the free software narrative was, we are the rebels and we are going to destroy the evil Empire. And you know, the open source narrative was actually no, there is a whole lot of people who are building really really important stuff that you already all rely on. You know I was kind of the one who framed the open source story around the Internet.\n(28:58) You know, you think you know it\u2019s just a bunch of long-haired radicals that are going to up end the current order, but guess what \u2013 you send emails don\u2019t you? Is all being routed by this guy\u2019s programme \u2013 oh!\n(29:12) You know, you have a domain name. Guess what, this long-haired guy over here wrote the software that you know allows that domain name -bank of America.com or New York Times.com to work \u2013 oh. You have a website, this guy led the project that probably runs in your website. Then all of a sudden they go oh! This isn\u2019t this radical movement, is just something that came from the fringes, and is already central to our lives, let\u2019s validate it.\n(29:35) Similarly after the dot com bust, it was like why did Google succeed, why did Amazon succeed? What are some of the principles that really mattered? In a way it is kind of teaching and that again is another way of thinking about what we do at O\u2019Reilly, where we are effectively a teaching and learning company.\n(29:56) We really support entrepreneurial learners, and I don\u2019t just mean entrepreneurs as learners, but people who want to take charge of their own learning. So many of the technologies that will cover are early stage, and are not widely accepted yet, you learn from your peers and we have basically just try to accelerate that learning. Originally as said by publishing and then later by saying, let\u2019s bring all of these people together so they can learn from each other and build communities of practice.\n(30:30) Tim I want to shift the conversation a little bit. Before we went live on the air, we were talking a little bit about basketball and we are both Larry Bird fans.\nI\u2019ma Warriors fan at the moment.\n(30:47) That\u2019s right and it was once said that you know the team with the most superstars usually wins and and analogous to that is it fair to say that companies with the most data are going to win and I make that comment and I want to follow-up with a question from Twitter from Bala Jaffery, who wanted your thoughts on the Internet of things, and how that technology will impact customer experience. So the importance of data and IOT in terms of customer experience.\n(31:20) So the first thing I would say is with qualifications you know, data is an incredibly important business asset. And you know, at the centre of my narrative about you know what distinguished what I called web 2.0 was this notion of data as an asset. In particular data created through user contribution, but not exclusively.\n(31:48) I think one of my principles was data is the new Intel inside, and that has really turned out over in the last 10 years to be very true. But this doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s at the heart of every business.\n(31:59) Look for example at Apple, clearly a great business, but not a data driven business in the way that Google is for example. Google\u2019s entire business was around a creative new way of using data to make better results. You know Apple, design genius and in some ways saying forget the data. You know I\u2019m going to create something that people are going to want.\n(32:30) But that being said the context of my thoughts about data were really in to give you a really long historical context that there were really formed by looking at historical analogies.\n(32:45) I came into the industry a little before the IBM PC was introduced, and what really struck me was that there had been this dominant player \u2013 IBM with all the hardware and they thought the software didn\u2019t matter. so they signed this deal with Microsoft. Microsoft realised that there was effectively a paradigms shift, in which software was going to become more important than hardware. Hardware that was going to become commoditized, and it did in fact become commoditized. There were a lot of people who spent time in still thinking that making a computer company was making hardware in competing with IBM. And you know eventually people did beat IBM there, but Microsoft just went on and created a whole new game.\n(33:34) And they then dominated the industry for decades with this paradigm that software mattered. And what I saw was that with the open protocols of the Internet, and with open source software, software was being commoditized in the same way where hardware had been commoditized just before. And then I asked myself a question, well what will become valuable now?\n(33:54) I came to the conclusion that it was data that was going to become valuable and that was really a kind of an ealy reflection on you know the kind of competitive advantage that you saw in a company like Google.\n(34:09)So moving onto the Internet of things question, you know in some ways I don\u2019t know if it comes after data, because data is still super important like software is super important and hardware is super important. But as computing starts to penetrate the real world, you know what super important is the vision to understand how to re-engineer that real world processes.\n(34:49) There was a Tweet ones from Aaron Levy of Boxx who said, Uber is $3.5 billion is now worth 40 or $50 billion and in designing the way the world ought to be than simply the way it is and the initial, well we are going to computerize taxicabs meant that we will put a little terminal in the back , where you could swipe your credit card or we can show you ads. And like no actually, if we can call a car at any time anywhere, you know and have it show up because now we know where you are and where the driver is.\n(35:23) You know, and if you think about that, actually at first people didn\u2019t get it and I would say this is the para-dramatic Internet of things company they go where is the Internet thing device? Well it\u2019s a smart phone, full of sensors and the fact that both the driver and the passenger has this sensor package if they are augmenting themselves is the paradigms. If one of those decides that it was a self-driving car, and we are thinking Internet of things. Or if it was a little car calling device, they would say it\u2019s the Internet of things. But no, it just happens to be a general-purpose device.\n(35:56) But that pattern of recreating real world processes, based on the capabilities you have now are so different. You know, oh we don\u2019t actually do it this way we used to, and you know, when you look at other things like Monsanto buying, (fiber core?) plus precision planting and now we are doing this data everything from the satellite and weather data and we are actually saying, oh yeah, you know in this part of the field we are going to put this much fertilizer on all be going to put the seed this deep and in this part that you\u2019re going to differently. It\u2019s the same kind of thing, like we have capabilities now that we didn\u2019t have before, and in some ways that kind of puts design at the centre in an odd way and not the design that\u2019s about, you know making things pretty.\n(36:46) But the kind of design that\u2019s about \u2013 what will really trying to do here? You know, and everyone slaps there forehead and go oh wait! Wait that part we didn\u2019t have to do. We can do it different.\n(37:00) You know, you\u2019ve hit on you know I think two of the most interesting aspects of digital transformation, which is number one, how does that affect real world processes \u2013 how do we do things different, as opposed to digital transformation which means, well we\u2019re going to sell something on the Internet and we can track the marketing numbers through analytics. So that\u2019s number one, the real world changes, and then number two, is the fact that user experience becomes a central component in all of this.\n(37:37)Yeah and I think user experience is you know in some ways and obviously you can think of that narrow way as in UX testing and so on. But in the broad way \u2013 actually let me back up a little bit. there is an e-book by Michael Schrage out of MIT called, who do you want your customers to become, and in makes the case that great entrepreneurs actually create their customers. They make the world a place where a different kind of person exists who wants their product.\n(38:15) You know, so if you think about it, Henry Ford \u2013 a great example, you know he invented the weekend. He invented I guess the Sabbath but he invented you know, there was so many things that he basically invented the idea that people would take these excursions in their cars. You know the kind of leisure to travel industry, which formerly belonged to only rich people. And suddenly it was something that everybody could do in their car, and he kind of invented a different kind of world.\n(38:49) Then you look at what Google did and invented a world where we think that we should have access to all of the world information at our fingertips. You know, and the smart phone taking that even further, so we\u2019ve all been changed in a profound way by these technologies.\n(39:06) I think we see that right now with companies like Uber with the expectations that I can have on demand transportation. You know, it\u2019s a profound shift and it\u2019s going to ripple all the way through our society. And I think the Internet of things \u2013 so when I talk about design, I mean that kind of design. You know, thinking about the fact that the world could be different and then making it so.\n(39:29) Yeah on the design on the broadest sense, beginning from the point of view of what are we trying to actually accomplish here? What is the benefit we are going to bring forth?\n(39:42) But and that\u2019s you know we just had at O\u2019Reilly, we are covering a lot of this in our solid conference, which is our Internet of things conference coming up in June. Creating online conferences and designed for the Internet of things, and it\u2019s really how do we think about all these issues? We have these immense new capabilities.\n(40:02) Another good example would be the way that education is changing. You know, Khan Academy is a redesign of education. It\u2019s not just supplemental material, you all here about the flip classroom but the whole notion of, hey wait, let\u2019s instead of delivering a lecture in class, and then sending kids whole with homework, we\u2019ll deliver the lecture at home and have them come in, where someone can actually work with them on their homework. You know, so much better and if you\u2019ve got kids, you\u2019ll realise of what a terrible curse homework is, and it\u2019s not really well designed you know where to get your kids to actually watch the lecture at home \u2013 that\u2019s easy.\n(40:50) And so that\u2019s like a redesign, it\u2019s process redesign.\n(40:54) I\u2019m incredibly impressed, I have a 12 year old daughter and she comes home all of her work \u2013 and it\u2019s a public school is in the Google classroom, in the cloud and when her instructors grade her essays, we can actually click on these word bubbles and the instructor is talking to us about you know why they have took points off here, and this whole adapted learning model in the collaboration that includes the parents is incredible. You\u2019re not going to be surprised in terms of doing the exam in whether you feel that you learned and you fully understand the topic. It\u2019s just magical.\n(41:40) I think it goes even further you know we all probably saw the Matrix, you know where Trinity knows how to fly the helicopter and downloads the instructions. You know, you look at where we are going with augmented reality, that\u2019s a big piece of that, it\u2019s like you\u2019re not downloading it directly into your brain yet, but you are sitting there and you know a company like Zachary out of LA, like here is a mechanic working on a jet fighter and they have got the overly showing him things what they\u2019re supposed to look like. That really brings me to this whole flaming of this event that I\u2019m working at and if we can use this technology to disempower people or we can use it to empower them.\n(42:30) I have been telling the story about you know, here are two different ways to use data with employees. One is to create micro-shiftwork and oh, we used to think we needed you for eight hours. Now we are realizing that we need you for this three hours and this two hours, and by the way you are now part-time so now we don\u2019t have to pay you benefits and yeah, we can save money. And of course, the employee is screwed.\n(42:53) And the other is what Uber and Lyft is doing, like they are actually exposing the data to their workers, and you talk to these Uber and Lyft drivers, and what they say is they love that they are in charge. They get to decide of when I\u2019m going to work, how long I\u2019m going to work. And so he is this old industrial model taking to its acme with this sort of micro-data driven shiftwork.\n(43:20) And with all kinds of tracking of how productive you are. And the other is we are going to make a market and we are actually going to have the network rate the workers. You know, there is all kinds of new business principles at play there. And all of that leads back to the design thing and you are multiply judged by, did you create a better experience with a customer rating system.\n(43:47) It\u2019s pretty awesome and fundamental transformation in the nature of work, which doesn\u2019t mean that there are no problems with it you know, because as a society we have tried all kinds of safety net kind of things to traditional employment. So if someone says, oh this is a lousy job because it doesn\u2019t have this factor or the other safety net thing. And you can go well, who created those things where we are only tied to do no traditional jobs. You know that\u2019s a choice we made in this society and we can say, well this is actually a better way to organize work, let\u2019s actually add on some of those other things.\n(44:0 20) Well, this has been a phenomenal conversation and unfortunately we\u2019re out of time.\n(44:29) That was the fastest 45 minutes of my week, and we could have gone for another two hours. Tim, unbelievable insight, thank you so much.\n(44:39) Well I am glad to do it and I enjoyed talking with you guys.\n(44:44) And I hope you\u2019ll come back another time, may be when you are doing your future of work conference, you can come on CXO-talk sometime around that period, and we can talk about the future of work.\n(44:56) And if you\u2019re ever in Boston and courtside seats, you know where.\n(45:03) You have been watching episode number 111 of CXO-Talk I\u2019m Michael Krigsman and my fabulous co-host, Vala Afshar.

The SCAQMD has filed a lawsuit against the Ohio-based corporation for selling paint, sealant, adhesives and coatings that exceed the allowed levels of VOCs. VOCs are chemicals that when released into the air produce smog. (Photo by Sarah Reingewirtz, Pasadena Star-News/SCNG)\nThe South Coast Air Quality Management District is suing a major paint and building coatings supplier for $30 million, claiming the company knowingly sold products to consumers containing high levels of chemicals that contributed to smoggy days and led to lung disease and premature deaths.\nAccording to the lawsuit, Sherwin-Williams, a $15-billion architectural coatings company based in Ohio, supplied solvents, wall coatings, paint thinners, sealants and adhesives to businesses and its own retail outlets in Southern California that exceeded allowable levels for certain smog-producing compounds.\nWhen these products are used, the liquid turns to gas and releases organic compounds into the air that produce two kinds of air pollution.\nWhen mixed with oxides of nitrogen and sunlight, these compounds, known as Volatile Organic Compounds, can create ozone, a caustic, lung-irritating pollutant.\nOn their own, VOCs form tiny atmospheric particles known as PM10 and PM2.5 that bypass the body\u2019s defense system and lodge deep in the lungs, causing debilitating pulmonary diseases and increased deaths, according to the lawsuit.\nTaken as a whole, architectural coatings used by consumers and contractors in numerous applications \u2014 from painting walls to sealing cracks in swimming pools \u2014 are one of the largest sources of VOCs in the air basin, which includes all of Orange County and the non-desert portions of Los Angeles, Riverside and San Bernardino counties.\nThe SCAQMD estimates these sources contribute 11 tons per day of VOC emissions.\nFederal court?\nLawyers for Sherwin-Williams did not respond to questions left by phone at their Los Angeles offices on Wednesday.\nHowever, they did request a change of venue from the Pomona South Superior Court, where the case was filed on Nov. 30, to the U.S. District Court\u2019s Central District in downtown Los Angeles.\nMatthew Thurlow, of Baker & Hostetler, removed the case to federal court on Jan. 10.\nThurlow argued that since rules for clean air standards are set according to the federal Clean Air Act, the case should be heard by a federal magistrate.\nOn Tuesday, United States District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez ruled he didn\u2019t believe the court had jurisdiction over the subject matter, saying the plaintiff\u2019s argument \u201ccarries little weight.\u201d\nSherwin-Williams\u2019 attorneys have until Feb. 15 to convince the judge of federal jurisdiction or the case will return back to state court, court documents show.\nIn 2015 and in 2016, SCAQMD inspectors issued notices of violation to Sherwin-Williams for selling products that violated air standards for VOC content.\nOn Jan. 27, 2015, an inspector issued a violation to \u201cvarious locations,\u201d citing the \u201cselling of architectural products with a VOC content in excess of the limits specified in the Table of Standards.\u201d\nEarlier that month, the inspector issues a violation for the selling of Crown Pro Flush, a solvent that cleans out paint spray equipment and is listed in ads as \u201clow VOC.\u201d\nThe inspector wrote the product exceeded 25 grams per liter of VOCs, the maximum allowed by the air district\u2019s air pollution rules for consumer solvents.\nSome of the rules in question have been in existence for nearly 30 years.\nThe suit says Sherwin-Williams owners, directors, officers, employees, contractors, vendors or affiliates \u201cwere in a position of responsibility in allowing them to influence corporate policies or activities with respect to Sherwin Williams\u2019 compliance with California environmental laws and regulations\u201d and could have prevented or corrected the violations.\nThe lawsuit asks for injunctive relief as well as civil penalties of $10,000 per violation, $40,000 per every knowing violation, $25,000 per every negligent violation and $75,000 for every \u201cwillful and intentional violation of California Health and Safety Codes,\u201d in addition to recouping the cost of inspections and attorneys fees.\nSherwin-Williams made the Fortune 500 list of largest U.S. corporations in 2018.",

(Photo: Gail Orenstein /NurPhoto/Getty Images)\nNile Gardiner / @NileGardiner\nNile Gardiner, a leading authority on transatlantic relations, is director of The Heritage Foundation's Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom. Read his research.\nBritish Prime Minister Theresa May has suffered a seismic defeat. The House of Commons on Tuesday rejected her proposed withdrawal agreement with the European Union by a 230 vote margin.\nAmong those voting against her: 118 rebel Conservative MPs who saw the deal as a weak-kneed surrender to the European Union.\nThis is the biggest defeat suffered by a U.K. prime minister in a major vote in modern times. Doubtless it will prompt immediate calls for May to step down.\nIf she does resign, there would be a Conservative Party leadership race, with a new prime minister in place within weeks.\nLabour leader Jeremy Corbyn has already called for a vote of no confidence in the government, but is unlikely to succeed, as the Democratic Unionist Party is committed to keeping the Conservative government in power.\nWhatever the fallout from the vote, it should emphatically sink the prime minister\u2019s poorly negotiated agreement with the European Union, which would tie Britain indefinitely to the EU Customs Union.\nIf May decides to cling on as prime minister, or if a new leader takes the helm of the Conservative Party, the best course of action for Great Britain would be to move forward with a \u201cno deal\u201d Brexit, under which there is a complete separation from the European Union.\nA \u201cno deal\u201d scenario would place Britain completely outside the EU\u2019s Customs Union and Single Market, with no transition period. Britain would trade with the EU under World Trade Organization rules. Meanwhile, it would be free to fully control its borders and negotiate and sign free trade agreements with nations across the world.\nA \u201cno deal\u201d Brexit is the best path forward to ensure that Britain is a truly free sovereign nation, able to shape its own destiny on the world stage. It is also a plus for the United States.\nA \u201csovereign Brexit\u201d would provide a tremendous impetus to a U.S.-U.K. free trade agreement, advancing economic freedom on both sides of the Atlantic and further enhancing the special relationship between the world\u2019s largest and fifth-largest economies.\nSuch a deal already enjoys strong support from the Trump administration and on Capitol Hill. It could be in place by the end of 2019.\nIn June 2016, 17.4 million Britons voted to retake control of their own country from the European Union. The vote was the greatest blow for liberty and self-determination on the world stage in many decades.\nBrexit is already firmly written into legislation passed overwhelmingly by Britain\u2019s Parliament. It is due to begin on March 29.\nA successful Brexit, based upon a truly sovereign Britain, will be great for Britain, for Europe, and for the United States. In 73 days\u2019 time, the American and British people should celebrate a historic moment that will bring the United States and United Kingdom closer together.",

        "raw_content": "DUI arrest could result in license suspension\nBeing arrested for a DUI in California can be a terrifying experience, especially when you don\u2019t know what to expect. The steps taken after an arrest are critical to your case, especially if your license was suspended or revoked. First-time offenders who are 21 or older and who took a urine, breath, or blood test to determine their blood alcohol content level will likely have their license suspended for four months if their results showed a .08% BAC or higher. Those who have multiple DUI offenses within 10 years will have their license suspended for one year.\nOnce you are arrested, police officers are required to forward a sworn report, test results, copies of any licenses taken and a copy of the completed notice of revocation or suspension form to the DMV. There may be an administrative review determining whether the suspension or revocation should be upheld or set aside. If it is upheld, you may contest the decision, but to do so you must seek aa hearing within 10 days from receipt of the suspension or revocation order.\nIf your license was confiscated at the time of your arrest, you will get your license back at the end of your suspension or revocation, assuming that you pay a fee of $125 the DMV and provide proof of financial responsibility. It is important to note that the DMV suspension or revocation of your license is different from the suspension or revocation that may come after a conviction in criminal court. The DMV may impose sanctions that have nothing to do with criminal penalties that come after being convicted of a DUI in criminal court.\nThe criminal court may also take action to suspend or revoke your license, fine you or put you in jail as a result of your conviction. This is why it is necessary to know about the consequences you may face and defend against them in the best way possible.",

The House's version of the bill would also allow officers to ask people about their immigration status during a routine stop, which critics have likened to Arizona's \"papers please\" law - parts of which were struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.\nThe bill's opponents say it will create a rift between local law enforcement officials and immigrants, who would avoid reporting crimes for fear of being deported.\nAbbott made passing a sanctuary cities ban an emergency item for the legislature in January. Supporters of the bill say local law enforcement agencies should comply with federal immigration authorities and turn over unauthorized immigrants in their custody. Not doing so, could lead to those immigrants being released and committing more serious crimes.\nFlex cuffs are out y'all pic.twitter.com/pSdB0yAxG5\n\u2014 James Barrag\u00e1n (@James_Barragan) May 1, 2017\nAs the protest reached its seventh hour near the close of business hours, state troopers began warning the crowd that they would have to leave the building or risk being arrested. At that time, 23 protesters continued sitting in the lobby, indicating that they were willing to be arrested.\nAround 5:30 p.m., troopers kicked news reporters out of the building. A short time later, after a justice of the peace arrived, troopers began processing citations for criminal trespass - a class B misdemeanor.\nLawyers for the protesters said they were blocked from entering the state building and providing their clients legal counsel. Attorney Paul Quinzi said he and five other lawyers asked to enter the building to speak with their clients.\n\"DPS said they'd ask the judge and apparently the judge said no,\" said Quinzi, of the Austin Lawyers Guild.\nAround 7 p.m., all of the protesters were walked out of the state building in flex cuffs and released.\nAmong the protesters who were cited were pastor Jim Rigby, a religious leader in Austin who advocates for immigrants rights, and Austin City Council Member Greg Casar.\n\"We stand on the side of immigrant communities and we will fight this to the end,\" Casar said after being released. \"This is the beginning. This was not so hard. We can do so much more and we will not stop.\"\n\"What an incredible honor to be with this group. What an incredible relief to not stand on the sidelines,\" Rigby said. \"Please know, if you're undocumented, that we love you and we want you here in Austin.\"\nProtesters also took to the streets in Dallas, which joined cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Washington, for May Day rallies on immigration across the country.\nPint-size defender of immigrants takes @workersdefense megaphone at #MayDay rally in Dallas against #SB4 Other rallies in Austin, DC,L.A. pic.twitter.com/Tr9Mtm83JY\n\u2014 Dianne Solis (@disolis) May 1, 2017\nAura Sarceno, a Guatemalan immigrant, shouted slogans in Spanish with about six dozen other supporters as they walked the sidewalks on Cockwell Hill Road near a shopping area. She praised immigrants for coming to the United States, even if they do so without legal authorization.\n\"You need a desire to accomplish things,\" Sarceno said. \"We work with pride and with honor and with much dignity and with respect for what this country is.\"\nAround her, protesters carried hand-made signs that read: \"We are not tools. We are humans\" and \"We built this city.\" A child took the megaphone, howling slogans in Spanish like \"Listen, the people are in a struggle.\"",

        "raw_content": "Marvell May Pay $3.5 Billion for 'Willfully' Infringing Patent\nThe amount is larger than Apple was awarded in its case against Samsung.\nNEW YORK (TheStreet) -- A federal-court jury in Pittsburgh has found in favor of Carnegie-Mellon University in a patent infringement case against computer-chip maker Marvell(:MRVL).\nThe jury decided that Marvell infringed on a number of patents concerning computer hard drives. It awarded the university $1.17 billion in damages.\nAnd if that's not bad enough, the jury decided that Marvell willfully infringed upon the patents, which means the school might be due a lot more. If so ordered, Marvell might have to pay triple damages, or $3.5 billion in fines.\nFor those keeping track, that's a larger sum than Apple was awarded (nearly $1.05 billion) in its landmark case against Samsung -- a jury decision still being fought in the courts. Two big jury verdicts of the past, such as Alcatel-Lucent(:ALU) vs. Microsoft(:MSFT) ($1.52 billion) and Centocor (now Janssen Biotech) vs. Abbott Labs(:ABT) ($1.67 billion), were overturned on appeal.\nAs expected, Marvell has released a statement saying it plans to appeal the jury's decision.",

        "raw_content": "War for the Planet of the Apes spins a tale that is not just thrilling but soulful\nMichael O\u2019SullivanJuly 13, 2017\nTHE best thing about the rebooted Planet of the Apes film series has always been the apes. Impressive on a technical level and a dramatic one, these motion-capture creatures \u2014 representing intelligent, even soulful chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and bonobos \u2014 outshine their human counterparts in terms of emotional connection with the audience. They may not be people, but they are, in every sense of the word, fully rounded characters.\nThe title of the newest instalment in the durable franchise, War for the Planet of the Apes, is something of a misnomer. Although set 15 years after the science experiment that first gave rise to smart, talking apes \u2014 and at the height of hostilities between these intellectually advanced animals and the more brutish of the people who would subjugate them \u2014 War includes fewer scenes of pitched battle than moments of quiet contemplation and conversation. (Not all of the apes actually speak here; many still communicate using graceful sign language. In a parallel development, several humans have come to lose the ability to talk - the result of a virus known as the Simian Flu.)\nAll this is explained, for newcomers to the saga, in a short preamble to the action of the new film, which begins with the apes ensconced in their fortified encampment in the deep woods of Northern California. Although the apes just want to be left alone, and there is a contingent of humans who are inclined to leave them in peace, there is an incursion by renegade human commandos \u2014 led by a bloodthirsty officer known only as the Colonel (Woody Harrelson) \u2014 that kills some of the family members of the apes\u2019 broodingly charismatic leader Caesar, a chimpanzee played by the great Andy Serkis, whose expressive, guttural vocal performance and mimelike physicality anchors the film.\nThis, of course, triggers a vendetta between Caesar and the Colonel, whose troops subsequently round up and imprison many of the apes, for slave labour, just as they are moving camp to avoid further attacks. Among those captured: Caesar and his only surviving son, the infant Cornelius (Devyn Dalton).\nWith Caesar out of the action, though not out of commission \u2014 despite being tied, seething, to a wooden structure that lends him the silhouette of a crucified, simian Jesus \u2014 the story shifts to the small band of apes still at large, plus a couple of newcomers. This group includes, in addition the wonderfully wise elder Maurice the orangutan (Karin Konoval, a veteran of the previous two films), a mute little human girl who has been orphaned (Amiah Miller) and a talkative yet wryly doleful zoo-escapee chimp who introduces himself only as Bad Ape. In this last role, Steve Zahn delivers a memorable turn, transcending a part that might otherwise have been used for little more than comic relief, and leaving viewers with a sense of genuine compassion.\nThough much of this connection can be attributed to the actors \u2014 and CGI wizards - who give life to these nonhuman characters, kudos is also due to the storytelling skills of director and co-writer Matt Reeves (Let Me In), who did such a fine job with the previous Apes film. Along with returning writer Mark Bomback, Reeves spins a gripping, visually stunning and emotionally complex tale of otherness \u2014 one that examines, against its us-vs-them subtext, not just what it means to be human, but also humane.\nWar for the Planet of the Apes may have the body of an action film, but it has the soul of an art-house drama and the brains of a political thriller.\nBy arrangement with The Washington Post",

        "raw_content": "Where health is concerned, there should never be a compromise, even if one has to consume a bitter pill once or twice a day. But then, here it is not a discussion about bitter pills, but something the Chinese and Japanese have contributed to the world in the form of green tea. And this is one gift to the world that is known to have miraculous medicinal properties.\nThe Chinese and Japanese have been consuming this since the last 4,000 years.\nIn fact, the natural medical practitioners prescribe green tea as part of the normal daily regime. In many parts of the China and Japan they still practice the elaborate tea ceremony, where a group of people get together to have a cup of green tea, in a meditative way.\nThough the benefits of this tea have been known for so long, yet the west has only begun to recognize it as a health drink. Many scientists and medical practitioners are not only researching the numerous benefits of the tea, but are also promoting it. In a 1994 research paper published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, which was the results of a study that indicated that those who drank green tea were at a reduced risk (60%) of esophageal cancer \u2013 Chinese men and women.\nAccording to researchers at the University of Purdue; they recently came to the conclusion that there is a compound in green tea that curtails the growth of cancer cells. Also the tea has properties that lower the cholesterol levels. It also balances the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol and bad (LDL) cholesterol.\nWhat is in green tea that makes it so vastly promoted amongst the global medical fraternity? Primarily, green tea has an important ingredient termed as catechin polyphenols, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). This is a vital anti-oxidant. This has the ability to not only inhibit the growth of cancer cells, but also them without harming the healthy tissue. Green tea leaves also have properties that prevent the abnormal formation of blood clots; which is one of main causes for heart attacks and stroke.\nBelow are listed the varied health benefits of green tea:\n\u00b7 It helps prevent cancer. Studies have proven that its strong anti-oxidant property can reduce bladder, colon, esophageal, pancreas, rectum, and stomach cancer by up to approximately 60%.\n\u00b7 It lowers the \u2018bad\u2019 cholesterol, which is known as LDL\n\u00b7 It inhibits the abnormal formation of blood clots, which in turn can prevent thrombosis, strokes and heart attacks.\n\u00b7 It reduces high blood pressure\n\u00b7 It lowers the blood sugar level and is helpful where Type II Diabetes is concerned.\n\u00b7 It washes the toxins that tend to accumulate on the liver\n\u00b7 Helps in maintaining optimum oral health by suppressing the formation of plaque formation.\n\u00b7 It also destroys the bacteria that bring about plaque formation.\n\u00b7 To a large extent it control or retards the aging process.\n\u00b7 It functions as a boost for the immune system.\n\u00b7 It helps prevent bacterial and viral infections.\n\u00b7 It helps relieve one from excessive fatigue and exertion.\n\u00b7 It helps maintain a healthy balance of the body fluids.\n\u00b7 It helps stimulate the metabolic rate\n\u00b7 It helps burn calories, thereby promoting healthy and brisk weight loss.\nBrewing a cup of green tea is extremely simple. There are a couple of companies that manufacture green tea bags, as well as sell them as tea leaves. To brew a cup one does not have to boil the tea bag or leaves in the water. Instead they need to boil the water, pour it into the cup, then add the bag or leaves, cover the cup and wait for about three minutes. The tea is ready to drink. In case one finds it too bitter then they can add some honey or sugar. One can also have iced green tea by refrigerating the blend. And to make something tasty one can add a little ginger, honey and lemon with lots of ice.\nPrevious Kitchen Remodeling Ideas\nNext Delicious Holidays",

As quirky as it is, it has been proven to be mostly correct. It has been a German folk tradition for to do this for years and years. The odds of seeing his shadow were very likely considering he has seen his shadow 100 times, and not seen just 17 times. I do think its strange that the men in top hats are the only people who can translate the little guy's movements, but hey, who am I to say they are wrong.

        "raw_content": "Everyone knows there are several benefits to buffing a car. However, it is easy to make a few mistakes while performing this task. To prepare and ensure the right methods are carried out, here are some tips.\nBuffing a Car \u2013 Our Top Tips\nAs with carrying out any task on a vehicle, park in a shady spot first. This prevents soap and water stains from developing on the exterior paint. Cleaning the car also gets rid of any excess dirt and grime on the car. Make sure to dry the car with a microfiber towel, as these soak up more water and grab contaminants.\nType of Buffer\nEnsuring you have the right equipment for the job becomes the next course of action. First, determine which method you need for your vehicle. The high-speed rotary buffer will grant the best result but requires the most amount of training. Additionally, this option comes with the added danger of ruining your car\u2019s paint job due to the risk of burning paint and swirls.\nAnother option is the orbital brush. This mimics the circular motions done by hand but is more efficient. Additionally, the orbital brush produces better results.\nFinally, the most labor-intensive way to buff is by hand. This method takes the longest but is best if you are untrained with a machine buffer. However, the results don\u2019t last as long and more product is required to complete the task.\nEnsure the area that is about to be buffed, normally 2 ft by 2 ft, is sectioned off with masking tape. This prevents the polish or wax from touching other areas. Check to make sure there is no sand or other dirt on the buffing pad or car surface before you begin. Any particles left on either can cause permanent scratches to the exterior. Furthermore, keep the buffing pad off the ground. If dropped on the ground the pad collects rocks, dust, dirt, and other particles that damage paint.\nYou should carry out all of the above steps before buffing a car. Additionally, the following steps will help you get the most out of the process.\nSome car owners cause harm to their vehicle without realizing it. The biggest mistake drivers make \u2013 using dish washing soap. The solution oxidizes, causing the exterior of the car to appear dull. This basically defeats the whole purpose of buffing your car by creating more work for yourself. Buffing also requires a lot of time, running up to three hours to complete.\nThe old cliche \u201cless is more\u201d applies when it comes to buffing a car. Using too much polish or wax during the process can cause the compounds to spread everywhere. Generally, a small amount applied directly to the area works best.\nAnother common mistake when using a machine is the application of too much pressure for a long period of time. This leads to the removal of paint. Thus, leaving your undercoat exposed, which can lead to rust and other issues.\nBuffing pads are essential to the process of buffing a car mechanically. How often you use the pads will determine when you should replace them. A person who only buffs their car 2 or 3 times a year will need to replace them less often than someone who uses them every month. Additionally, purchasing new pads will ensure you maintain the best results when buffing a car. In order to prevent polish, wax, or other abrasive from drying on the material, it\u2019s best to clean the pads right after buffing.\nOverall, buffing a car requires time and effort to successfully perform the task. In addition, you must know how to properly utilize the equipment. Professionals have the experience and the know-how to buff a vehicle efficiently. DetailXPerts, an eco-friendly, mobile auto detailing company, offers specialty services like buffing. Our highly-trained technicians will help you get the best out of buffing.\nauto detailing tips",

        "raw_content": "Richmond Falcon Update\nOn Thursday April 11th Biologists with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (VDGIF), with the assistance of Dominion personnel, installed two webcams at the peregrine falcon nest box on the 22nd floor of the Dominion Building at One James River Plaza in Downtown Richmond.\nThese two cameras will allow biologists to monitor the progress of the birds through their breeding cycle and provide the public with an opportunity to see the day to day lives of these amazing birds of prey. This project is jointly sponsored by VDGIF and Dominion. With the assistance of the University of Virginia Long Term Ecological Research project, live images from the camera will be made available to the public. We are working on the technical aspects of making these images available and hope to have it up and running soon. DGIF biologists will post information and updates through the breeding season.\nThe pair had laid a five egg clutch for the first time. The camera allowed us to see that one of these eggs was not being incubated through much of the day on Friday. On Friday evening at approximately 7:30 pm we could see that only four eggs remained in the nest box. Falcons will often remove non-viable eggs from the nest and we suspect that is what occurred. A DGIF biologist searched the ground underneath the nesting area on Saturday morning and found no sign of the egg. The female continues to incubate the remaining four eggs. Peregrine falcons typically incubate their eggs for 33-35 days and we expect these eggs to hatch sometime next week.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Difference Between Policy and Regulation\nDifference Between Policy and Regulation\nPolicy vs Regulation\nPolicies, rules, regulations, directives, and procedures are words that have similarities and confuse many people. These words, or rather concepts, have great significance in all establishments and environments. If policies are rules made to achieve certain goals in a company or organization, regulations are acts or statutes passed by the legislation having the force of a law. However, because of some overlap people find it difficult to distinguish between a policy and a regulation. This article attempts to highlight these differences to remove all confusion.\nIf there is a rule in a factory that prohibits smoking inside the premises to avoid fire or any other mishap, it is done purposefully by the management to ensure compliance as they want to keep the factory safe from mishaps. Policies are rules that are made by organizations, to achieve their aims and goals. Policies are made by individuals, groups, companies, and even governments to carry out their plans.\nEducational institutions have their own policies regarding scholarships and admissions; organizations have their policies to transact business with certain level of vendors, and governments have foreign policies to deal with matters pertaining to foreign countries. It becomes difficult for organizations to pursue their goals in the absence of these policies. Policies are made by people in the higher echelons of management, to make others in the company comply with them. Policies are unwritten laws that have to be followed in letter and spirit by the employees of an organization.\nRegulations are rules that are made to make people comply and behave in a certain manner. A regulation has the effect of a law and is considered as a restriction that is imposed by authorities, to make people follow the desired code of conduct. Regulations are different from other laws that are made by the legislature or through the constitution, but they have the backing of the authorities and are meant to regulate the action of individuals, groups, and organizations. Regulations came into existence because of the feeling that unregulated business led to inefficiency, injustice and use of unfair means.\nWhat is the difference between Policy and Regulation?\n\u2022 Regulations are administrative in nature and allow for smooth operations in an organization or a department whereas policies are general in nature and made to help an organization achieve its goals.\n\u2022 Regulations are made by the executive branch of the government whereas policies are made by individuals, organizations, and even governments.\n\u2022 Regulations are restrictive in nature and impose sanctions upon people and companies whereas policies are unwritten but help in guiding the organizations to achieve their long term goals.\n\u2022 Governments change but the basic foreign policy of a country remains the same.\nDifference Between Guideline and Policy Difference Between Legislation and Regulation Difference Between Broad and Wide Difference Between Ordinary and Extraordinary Difference Between Act and Regulation\nFiled Under: Words Tagged With: Policy, regulation\nstuart king says\nIt\u2019s not exactly policy and procedures broken down and rules and regulations broken down thank you very much\nDifference Between Cisco Cius and Motorola Xoom\nDifference Between Dual Core and Quad Core\nDifference Between Compensation and Restitution\nDifference Between Sell and Sale\nDifference Between Apple iPhone 4 and Apple iPad 2",

Incidents as varied as automobile accidents, heart attacks, drownings, childbirth, and gunshot wounds all require immediate medical attention. EMTs and paramedics provide this vital attention as they care for and transport the sick or injured to a medical facility.\nIn an emergency, EMTs and paramedics typically are dispatched to the scene by a 911 operator, and often work with police and fire department personnel. (Police and detectives and firefighting occupations are discussed elsewhere in the Handbook.) Once they arrive, they determine the nature and extent of the patient\u2019s condition while trying to ascertain whether the patient has preexisting medical problems. Following strict rules and guidelines, they give appropriate emergency care and, when necessary, transport the patient. Some paramedics are trained to treat patients with minor injuries on the scene of an accident or at their home without transporting them to a medical facility. Emergency treatment for more complicated problems is carried out under the direction of medical doctors by radio preceding or during transport.\nEMTs and paramedics may use special equipment, such as backboards, to immobilize patients before placing them on stretchers and securing them in the ambulance for transport to a medical facility. Usually, one EMT or paramedic drives while the other monitors the patient\u2019s vital signs and gives additional care as needed. Some EMTs work as part of the flight crew of helicopters that transport critically ill or injured patients to hospital trauma centers.\nAt the medical facility, EMTs and paramedics help transfer patients to the emergency department, report their observations and actions to emergency room staff, and may provide additional emergency treatment. After each run, EMTs and paramedics replace used supplies and check equipment. If a transported patient had a contagious disease, EMTs and paramedics decontaminate the interior of the ambulance and report cases to the proper authorities.\nBeyond these general duties, the specific responsibilities of EMTs and paramedics depend on their level of qualification and training. To determine this, the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) registers emergency medical service (EMS) providers at four levels: First Responder, EMT-Basic, EMT-Intermediate, and EMT-Paramedic. Some States, however, do their own certification and use numeric ratings from 1 to 4 to distinguish levels of proficiency.\nThe lowest-level workers\u2014First Responders\u2014are trained to provide basic emergency medical care because they tend to be the first persons to arrive at the scene of an incident. Many firefighters, police officers, and other emergency workers have this level of training. The EMT-Basic, also known as EMT-1, represents the first component of the emergency medical technician system. An EMT-1 is trained to care for patients at the scene of an accident and while transporting patients by ambulance to the hospital under medical direction. The EMT-1 has the emergency skills to assess a patient\u2019s condition and manage respiratory, cardiac, and trauma emergencies.\nThe EMT-Intermediate (EMT-2 and EMT-3) has more advanced training that allows the administration of intravenous fluids, the use of manual defibrillators to give lifesaving shocks to a stopped heart, and the application of advanced airway techniques and equipment to assist patients experiencing respiratory emergencies. EMT-Paramedics (EMT-4) provide the most extensive prehospital care. In addition to carrying out the procedures already described, paramedics may administer drugs orally and intravenously, interpret electrocardiograms (EKGs), perform endotracheal intubations, and use monitors and other complex equipment.\nEMTs and paramedics work both indoors and outdoors, in all types of weather. They are required to do considerable kneeling, bending, and heavy lifting. These workers risk noise-induced hearing loss from sirens and back injuries from lifting patients. In addition, EMTs and paramedics may be exposed to diseases such as hepatitis-B and AIDS, as well as violence from drug overdose victims or mentally unstable patients. The work is not only physically strenuous, but can be stressful, sometimes involving life-or-death situations and suffering patients. Nonetheless, many people find the work exciting and challenging and enjoy the opportunity to help others.\nEMTs and paramedics employed by fire departments work about 50 hours a week. Those employed by hospitals frequently work between 45 and 60 hours a week, and those in private ambulance services, between 45 and 50 hours. Some of these workers, especially those in police and fire departments, are on call for extended periods. Because emergency services function 24 hours a day, EMTs and paramedics have irregular working hours.\nEMTs and paramedics held about 192,000 jobs in 2004. Most career EMTs and paramedics work in metropolitan areas. Volunteer EMTs and paramedics are more common in small cities, towns, and rural areas. These individuals volunteer for fire departments, emergency medical services (EMS), or hospitals, and may respond to only a few calls for service per month or may answer the majority of calls, especially in smaller communities. EMTs and paramedics work closely with firefighters, who often are certified as EMTs as well and act as first responders. A large number of EMTs or paramedics belong to a union.\nFull-time and part-time paid EMTs and paramedics were employed in a number of industries. About 4 out of 10 worked as employees of private ambulance services. About 3 out of 10 worked in local government for fire departments, public ambulance services, and EMS. Another 2 out of 10 were found in hospitals, working full time within the medical facility or responding to calls in ambulances or helicopters to transport critically ill or injured patients. The remainder worked in various industries providing emergency services.\nFormal training and certification is needed to become an EMT or paramedic. A high school diploma is typically required to enter a formal training program. Some programs offer an associate degree along with the formal EMT training. All 50 States have a certification procedure. In most States and the District of Columbia, registration with the NREMT is required at some or all levels of certification. Other States administer their own certification examination or provide the option of taking the NREMT examination. To maintain certification, EMTs and paramedics must reregister, usually every 2 years. In order to reregister, an individual must be working as an EMT or paramedic and meet a continuing education requirement.\nTraining is offered at progressive levels: EMT-Basic, also known as EMT-1; EMT-Intermediate, or EMT-2 and EMT-3; and EMT-Paramedic, or EMT-4. EMT-Basic coursework typically emphasizes emergency skills, such as managing respiratory, trauma, and cardiac emergencies, and patient assessment. Formal courses are often combined with time in an emergency room or ambulance. The program also provides instruction and practice in dealing with bleeding, fractures, airway obstruction, cardiac arrest, and emergency childbirth. Students learn how to use and maintain common emergency equipment, such as backboards, suction devices, splints, oxygen delivery systems, and stretchers. Graduates of approved EMT basic training programs who pass a written and practical examination administered by the State certifying agency or the NREMT earn the title \u201cRegistered EMT-Basic.\u201d The course also is a prerequisite for EMT-Intermediate and EMT-Paramedic training.\nEMT-Intermediate training requirements vary from State to State. Applicants can opt to receive training in EMT-Shock Trauma, wherein the caregiver learns to start intravenous fluids and give certain medications, or in EMT-Cardiac, which includes learning heart rhythms and administering advanced medications. Training commonly includes 35 to 55 hours of additional instruction beyond EMT-Basic coursework, and covers patient assessment as well as the use of advanced airway devices and intravenous fluids. Prerequisites for taking the EMT-Intermediate examination include registration as an EMT-Basic, required classroom work, and a specified amount of clinical experience.\nThe most advanced level of training for this occupation is EMT-Paramedic. At this level, the caregiver receives additional training in body function and learns more advanced skills. The Technology program usually lasts up to 2 years and results in an associate degree in applied science. Such education prepares the graduate to take the NREMT examination and become certified as an EMT-Paramedic. Extensive related coursework and clinical and field experience is required. Because of the longer training requirement, almost all EMT-Paramedics are in paid positions, rather than being volunteers. Refresher courses and continuing education are available for EMTs and paramedics at all levels.\nEMTs and paramedics should be emotionally stable, have good dexterity, agility, and physical coordination, and be able to lift and carry heavy loads. They also need good eyesight (corrective lenses may be used) with accurate color vision.\nAdvancement beyond the EMT-Paramedic level usually means leaving fieldwork. An EMT-Paramedic can become a supervisor, operations manager, administrative director, or executive director of emergency services. Some EMTs and paramedics become instructors, dispatchers, or physician assistants, while others move into sales or marketing of emergency medical equipment. A number of people become EMTs and paramedics to assess their interest in health care, and then decide to return to school and become registered nurses, physicians, or other health workers.\nEmployment of emergency medical technicians and paramedics is expected to grow much faster than the average for all occupations through 2014, as full-time paid EMTs and paramedics replace unpaid volunteers. As population and urbanization increase, and as a large segment of the population\u2014aging baby boomers\u2014becomes more likely to have medical emergencies, demand will increase for EMTs and paramedics. There will still be demand for part-time, volunteer EMTs and paramedics in rural areas and smaller metropolitan areas. In addition to jobs arising from growth, openings will occur because of replacement needs; turnover is relatively high in this occupation because of the limited potential for advancement and the modest pay and benefits in private-sector jobs.\nJob opportunities should be best in private ambulance services. Competition will be greater for jobs in local government, including fire, police, and independent third-service rescue squad departments, in which salaries and benefits tend to be slightly better. EMTs and paramedics who have advanced certifications, such as EMT-Intermediate and EMT-Paramedic, should enjoy the most favorable job prospects as clients and patients demand higher levels of care before arriving at the hospital.\nEarnings of EMTs and paramedics depend on the employment setting and geographic location as well as the individual\u2019s training and experience. Median annual earnings of EMTs and paramedics were $25,310 in May 2004. The middle 50 percent earned between $19,970 and $33,210. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $16,090, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $43,240. Median annual earnings in the industries employing the largest numbers of EMTs and paramedics in May 2004 were:\nThose in emergency medical services who are part of fire or police departments receive the same benefits as firefighters or police officers. For example, many are covered by pension plans that provide retirement at half pay after 20 or 25 years of service or if the worker is disabled in the line of duty.\nOther workers in occupations that require quick and level-headed reactions to life-or-death situations are air traffic controllers, firefighting occupations, physician assistants, police and detectives, and registered nurses.\nGeneral information about emergency medical technicians and paramedics is available from:\n* National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians, P.O.

        "raw_content": "WHY DRESSEL DIVERS?\nEvery day is SCHOOL day\nPokemon Go diving to escape being caught! Look what we found\u2026\nDiver in front of an Amphora while scuba diving\nThe denomination comes originally from the search of a name that would sound good with the word \u201cdivers\u201d. Being in the Guardia Civil (the \u201cGuardia Civil\u201d is the largest public security force at the national level in Spain, an armed institution of military nature that is part of the security forces of Spain), and on duty as a diver, we were studying and protecting the archaeological Spanish heritage in our seas, so we did have quite some information and writings about ancient amphorae. When I saw the name Dressel I thought of it as a perfect match, plus it is a very important name in history for any archaeologist. Many amphorae, containers used by ancient Romans and Greeks, received the name Dressel after Heinrich Dressel, a German archaeologist who classified them and who established an ancient amphorae classification typology, based on its pioneer excavation in Testaccio Hill. In 1872 Heinrich Dressel started digging in Testaccio Hill, and he found the inscription \u201ctituli picti\u201d in many of the amphorae. It was Dressel who was the first one to study and decipher these data, as well as dating the Hill\u2019s formation era. He also discovered that most of the amphorae that were found in the hill came from the Baetica Province, in Hispania, and that those were used for the transportation of olive oil. Based on the great amount of data obtained throughout his investigations and excavations, he created an amphorae typological table, grouping them based on their shape, being this table nowadays a worldwide reference.\nTypology of the amphorae classify by Heinrich Dressel, who gave us the inspiration to name our scuba diving company this way\nAlthough he is better known for his numerous books on Latin inscriptions and for being the discoverer of the inscription \u201cDuenos\u201d, one of the most ancient existing examples of written ancient Latin. The inscription \u201cDuenos\u201d is one of the first written registers from Latin and it\u2019s a three-line text inscribed in an art craft piece consisting in three vases together. It was named after the first Word \u2013Duenos- that means \u201cgood\u201d in archaic Latin. I believe that \u201cDRESSEL DIVERS\u201d is partly named after this person to honor his memory. The logo is inspired in one of the amphorae that he classified and typified as \u201cDressel 19\u201d. Although it didn\u2019t come out as I expected nor exactly similar to the mentioned amphora, the design was made by a good friend and colleague diver from the Guardia Civil, with whom I went through tough situations many times during our duty as GEAS, who put so much enthusiasm in this project of designing this logo and my new enterprise that I got really attached to this logotype and it has remained like this ever since. Many people have tried to change the logo, but I stick to it and it will stay as it is, at least while I\u2019m still alive. I love it!\nJavier Ibran, \u2018Dressel Divers\u2019 Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Founder.",

        "raw_content": "READER'S EDITORIAL: ELECTION CRINGE AND CONFLICT\ndeep conviction\nBy Wendy Holland\nJanuary 24, 2012 (San Diego) -- \u201cAre you freaking kidding me?!\u201d It\u2019s a sentiment I experience\u2014and express--daily. My concerns and interests have always been intensely passionate; I vacillate between a deep conviction that God is putting these things in my heart to be shared and an aversion to being perceived as judgmental by virtue of calling out what I see as blatant opposition to the true Gospel. Watching the race for the Republican nomination for president is bringing it all home.\nA couple of Sundays back, in the house church we attend, I was exposed to a profound reality. Don, a congregant who is in his 80s, directed everyone to Matthew 24:14: \u201cAnd this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.\u201d Don embodies one of the things I love most about home church. In the American church\u2019s ever-increasing quest for cultural relevance we\u2019ve abandoned the Scriptural mandate to give a place of honor to those who are more chronologically mature, and have subsequently lost the invaluable spiritual wisdom that can accompany that. Don is truly wise; when he takes the time to share you know it\u2019s going to be good. When he spoke up I had a fleeting moment of despair that my husband was in the bathroom and going to miss out.\n\u201cWe hear a lot about the return of the Lord, and how He\u2019ll come back when the Gospel has been preached to all the world,\u201d Don began. \u201cNow I know a lot of places where a salvation message is being preached. But I know of very few places where the Gospel of the Kingdom is being preached. In Matthew 6:33 Jesus said \u2018seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you,\u2019 and that was in response to the Sermon on the Mount He\u2019d just preached.\u201d Don went on to share and expound on various passages that show what \u201cKingdom living\u201d really looked like, and leaving me with a message I\u2019d return to several times in the coming week. Because one of my biggest RUFKMs comes from the total disconnect between how God really calls us to live, USA politics, and the American church.\nRecently while at the gym I watched a Rachel Maddow segment illustrating that no matter what President Obama does, the Republican leadership portrays him not in accordance with his deeds, but their desires. When he was running for office the NRA warned that he was \u201ccoming for your guns!\u201d Conversely, a couple of years into his administration the NRA said the very fact that the president hasn\u2019t come for your guns shows just how insidious he is, because he\u2019s clearly lulling us into a false sense of security so he can come for the guns at some later date. Popular talking points state that Obama is all about \u201cgrowing government,\u201d when in reality he\u2019s instated unprecedented tax cuts both for middle class families and small businesses. His critics portray him as weak on security, but under his administration numerous high-level terrorists\u2014including the elusive (at least to the W administration) Osama bin Laden\u2014have been removed from power. They call him weak on immigration, but for three years running, our country has deported a record number of illegal immigrants. And Maddow\u2019s anchoring assertion was that if the GOP can\u2019t even rally around President Obama\u2019s recent proposal to consolidate six government agencies\u2014thereby cutting three billion dollars over ten years\u2014with anything but suspicion and jabs, reality just won\u2019t be putting in an appearance.\nFor months I\u2019ve been saying, \u201cI need to stop watching politics before it gets any closer to the election, or I\u2019m going to have a heart attack.\u201d Each day I take in all spheres of punditry, from MSNBC to Fox News to the Huffington Post, and everything in between. But what happened in my heart during and after that Maddow clip was different. I had an almost physical burning desire to point out some things that I find distressingly inexcusable. The Republican nominee will likely be Romney or Gingrich, and with Huntsman out of the race the alternatives are just as dismal. The hypocrisy in considering Gingrich is astounding; it\u2019s hard to forget that he was embroiled in an extra-marital affair while leading impeachment hearings against President Clinton for the same thing. As excited as the extreme-right is by Gingrich\u2019s hateful rhetoric and thinly veiled racism, it\u2019s distinctly likely to backfire in a general election. In Romney we have a man with very little political integrity, whose primary objective just seems to be moving on up to the next higher office and who, from the undeniable evangelical perspective belongs to a birthed-directly-from-the-bowels-of-Satan cult. Keep in mind here that the GOP does the bulk of its pandering to the Christian Right, and four years ago there wasn\u2019t an evangelical in America who would ever consider voting for a Mormon. That was until we had a black man with a funny name in office.\nAll this was going through my head, that the writing is on the wall: The majority of American evangelicals would rather bite the bullet and vote for a serial adulterer or someone they view as a religious heretic than vote for a monogamous, Christian-church-attending (sorry you didn\u2019t dig his former pastor) sitting president with an agenda that\u2019s guided by undeniably Scriptural principles:\nExodus 23:9 - Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in Egypt.\nDeuteronomy 15:11 - There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward those of your people who are poor and needy in your land.\nIsaiah 58:6-7 - \u201cIs not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:\nEzekiel 16:49 - \u201c\u2018Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.\nI John 3:16-18 - This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for one another. If any one of you has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in you? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.\nSilly as it seems, the Maddow clip and the emotions it stirred in me had me close to tears throughout the day. As much as I love my home church, Don and some others there\u2014the very ones who realize that we are not preaching the Kingdom to the ends of the earth--would sooner buy into the conspiracy theory that Obama\u2019s a Kenyan Muslim and vote for a Mormon, or a racist philanderer, than they would objectively examine the president\u2019s faith, family and political record. Last night I said to my husband John, \u201cYou know I\u2019m not going to be able to keep my mouth shut . . . \u201c And he was in total agreement that there\u2019s no doubt. So the questions for me become: Do I stop going to church when the urge to state my convictions becomes unbearable? Do I keep my mouth shut for the sake of peace and to maintain false unity, when I actually feel like I\u2019m witnessing the deception of the elect?\nDo I keep all those RUFKM moments locked up in my heart? Because every time I have one of those moments I\u2019m increasingly convinced God\u2019s calling on me to share, to write, and to get it out there where people can see it.\nBut is that even my place? Well, it seems it just might be.\nSubmitted by jimec on Wed, 01/25/2012 - 12:16\nThank you for sharing Isiaih 58:6-7 which is exactly the same as Matthew 6:33. Keep helping others to break their yoke.",

        "title": "Where is Poland headed? | European Council on Foreign Relations",
        "raw_content": "Where is Poland headed?\nDoes Polish national-conservative leader Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski have a plan?\nDoes Polish national-conservative leader Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski have a plan? Or are his policy decisions (which are often rushed through literally overnight) based purely on an unquenched thirst for power at any cost? As the leader of the Law and Justice party he has achieved an awful lot in just a few months: disempowering the Constitutional Court, gaining control of the public media and passing a new civil service law that will allow the party to appoint its own people to high posts in state institutions. More than ever before, it is necessary to find out where this anti-liberal blitzkrieg is heading.\nKaczy\u0144ski is the de facto ruler of the country today, with Prime Minister Beata Szyd\u0142o and President Andrzej Duda doing little more than obediently enforcing his ideas. Over the past few years Kaczy\u0144ski has skilfully fuelled resentment in order to raise credibility for his own narrative of Poland as a ruined country and built the foundations to support his idea of completely reorganising the state. He has picked up on the real and justified socio-economic worries of many citizens, but at the same time has exploited and widened the existing divide between the liberal and conservative parts of society. The latter conservative element was who Kaczy\u0144ski was aiming for in his speech during the Smolensk debate, when he deliberately alluded to the possible complicity of the Polish government with Vladimir Putin\u2019s regime in the Tu-154 plane crash in 2010, which claimed 90 lives including that of his brother President Lech Kaczy\u0144ski and was considered an assassination attempt by some in government.\nUnderstanding his desire to use this last opportunity to firmly put his stamp on Polish democracy (having failed miserably from 2005-2007), and being sensitive to the particular brand of cynicism that has informed his actions to date is not sufficient to fully understand Kaczy\u0144ski\u2019s plan for Poland. That a \u201cplan\" exists is perfectly clear \u2013 it originates from its author\u2019s worldview, which is made up of at least three components.\nFirst is his conviction that liberal democracy, famously fragile and vulnerable, is an outdated political structure in this globalised and complex world. Instead, he thinks a strong government is needed that acts efficiently on behalf of the democratic majority and, where necessary, is able to take drastic measures to carry out the majority\u2019s will without being permanently hobbled by the liberal system of \u201cchecks and balances\u201d. Victor Orb\u00e1n of Hungary has demonstrated in his own country that such a model can operate quite successfully without liberal sticklers and other malcontents being able to provide an alternative. Erecting a \u201cBudapest in Warsaw\u201d has been Kaczy\u0144ski\u2019s professed goal for a long time and he is now making great strides towards approaching this \u201cideal\u201d. His marginalisation of the Constitutional Court, in breach of the constitution, serves as an apt example.\nSecondly, while Kaczy\u0144ski has shown little interest in the economy or foreign politics, his focus is on issues of society, history, morality and culture. Derided by many, Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski\u2019s statements on the mix of races and cultures and on vegetarians and cyclists as a manifestation of a leftist-liberal opinion leadership in western Europe are characteristic of Kaczy\u0144ski\u2019s party and its core voters, especially when combined with a rhetoric about how these very things threaten the traditional foundations of the Polish state. They perceive the organic processes of liberalisation, secularisation and individualisation that brought major changes to European societies over the past few decades as ideological schemes imposed from above. It is their belief that a strong state requires a homogeneous, self-confident, community-oriented society that will only be able to ward off external threats when it doesn\u2019t surrender to the corrupting processes of the West. Kaczy\u0144ski\u2019s affirmative politics of memory and control of public media are designed to ensure that the national community will be consolidated and based on these very values. In addition, a generous social policy correcting the \u201cneoliberal excesses\u201d of the previous government is supposed to strengthen social cohesion. Rejection of the \u201cwestern model\u201d as the only possible option is also geared towards ending the politics of imitation and instead to support a policy of innovation that takes better account of the Polish economy\u2019s specific national demands. Incidentally, most experts and politicians, even those not affiliated with the party, see the latter as a necessary precondition for Poland to escape the looming \u201cmiddle-income trap\u201d.\nThe third issue is a late settling of accounts with \u201cpost-communist networks\u201d that Law and Justice perceives as having influence on political and economic developments. However, it is up for debate how cynical this criticism might be. Undoubtedly, it provides a pretext for Kaczy\u0144ski to deal with the hated establishment of the Third Republic. The secret services, which have now been provided with far-reaching powers (for example, in the area of internet user data) and whose political leadership has been given more powerful mechanisms of control, may play a central role in the fight against the \u201csystem\u201d.\nThe party\u2019s covert operations and the speed at which it is remodelling the state suggest that Kaczy\u0144ski\u2019s vision is close to being fulfilled. This would, however, be a premature conclusion. Just because Orb\u00e1n\u2019s model succeeded in Hungary doesn\u2019t mean that Kaczy\u0144ski\u2019s is necessarily destined to in Poland. Kaczy\u0144ski will of course be able to cause a lot of harm to the existing liberal republic in his attempt to make his political and social utopia a reality. His regime could throw Poland back a few years and bring institutional changes with it that will take a long time to reverse. However, it is doubtful whether he will be able to maintain his social opinion leadership in the long run and consolidate his power. His election victory was not based on a massive swing to the right in society (which never happened). It was instead facilitated by the failure of the liberal elite as well as by the friendly social image and anti-revolutionary rhetoric that Law and Justice used in its election campaign.\nUnlike Hungary, Poland has a strong middle class that will not be patronised and doesn\u2019t have a neo-fascist right comparable to Jobbik. The processes of social renewal that Law and Justice is naively trying to undo have brought irreversible change to large parts of the population. After two months of the present government, 50 percent of Poles are concerned about the state of democracy, while only 30 percent are satisfied with the government\u2019s work. Tens of thousands are on the streets to protest against Law and Justice and the government is making life difficult for a whole range of social groups with its politics, including journalists, judges, and civil servants. Their protests are not going to subside and will not be stifled easily, should Law and Justice continue on its present course. It will require a great effort from citizens and the opposition for this mobilisation to persist and culminate in political power, but the fact that Kaczy\u0144ski is misconceiving his mandate and in parts misusing it may cost him dearly in the next four years, and maybe sooner than we think.\nRead more on: European Power,Cohesion & Governance",

        "raw_content": "Taking the strain out of waste\nCurrent legislation that must be adhered to in the disposal of waste materials, is complex enough to catch out even the most organised company. In response to this, OSS Group has developed environmental audits which bring the solution to the customer and take the strain out of waste management.\nOSS visits sites to conduct an environmental audit into waste management operations\nWaste management is probably not the most attractive of areas when it comes to operating a business. However, it is one of the areas where there can be serious repercussions if you decide to dabble in waste disposal yourself or if you choose to use an unregistered company to help you.\nHelp is at hand in the form of OSS Group. A specialist in waste management procedures and waste handling, OSS Group can help businesses remain compliant with its newly developed environmental audits. These give customers the opportunity for OSS to visit their sites and conduct an in-depth audit into the waste management operation.\n\"The reason we launched our environmental audits,\" commented Grant Lockie from OSS Group, \"is that very few companies actually understand the legal implications of the legislation and do not realise that they could be breaking the law with their current practices. By conducting the audit, we provide the information that the customer requires in order to make an informed decision on the future of the waste handling procedures.\"\nThe audits look at the types of waste the customer produces, how the waste is stored and disposed of, whether the right containers are on-site for waste storage, whether waste is being disposed of in the correct manner and whether copies of the Environment Agency paperwork is being kept.\nIn many cases site security and access to the site can pose problems for collection and many industrial sites do not have designated areas for storing waste for collection, which can present health and safety problems. OSS Group can then take the results of the audits and use this to work out the best method of waste management and collection for any given customer.\n\"No two audits are the same,\" said Lockie, \"but we frequently find there are no personnel dedicated to managing the waste of an industrial site, which means some companies are not familiar with various legislation and regulations. It is vital that these companies are aware of Environment Agency requirements and we can provide information about this as well as offer advice on how they can facilitate the waste management and collection process.\"\nAll too often customers are not aware of all the waste streams that the Special Waste Regulations cover. It is not unusual to find that customers are concentrating on one area of waste such as waste oil, but forgetting about related items such as oily rags and absorbent granules. The environmental audits are designed to pick up on these areas in order for new procedures to be put in place to meet existing legislation.\nManaging waste streams\n\"There are many companies currently working towards ISO14001 and, as part of this, they have to dispose of waste that has been on site for a long period of time. The Environmental Audit can identify problem areas and work with the customer to provide a solution,\" said Lockie, \"On many of the larger industrial sites we deal with, one of the main problems is in keeping track of the waste streams across the company. We can help to ensure the entire site is managing waste streams properly and set up standard procedures that can be followed throughout the site.\"\nOne area where new legislation is likely to have a significant impact is on segregation of waste streams. Currently awareness amongst employees is not always seen as a key issue. When the new legislation comes into force it will be vital for employees to understand what waste is put where. Different types of waste will need to be segregated to ensure waste disposal costs are kept to a minimum.\n\"There could be a time in the not too distant future where a premium charge is made for removal of non-segregated waste,\" commented Grant Lockie, \"By conducting an environmental audit we are giving our customers the chance to identify the problem areas in their waste management practices and help to put them right before the Environment Agency spots them.\"",

Demonstrated financial need is not required to qualify. Students are responsible for paying all of the interest that adds up, until the loan balance is paid off.\nDirect Unsubsidized Loans (sometimes called Unsubsidized Stafford Loans) are low-cost, fixed-rate federal student loans available to both undergraduate and graduate students. Financial need is not required, so even students from wealthier families can borrow Direct Unsubsidized Loans.\nEligibility not based on demonstrated financial need or credit\nReceive your financial aid award letter by mail or email from your school's financial aid office. This letter will summarize your available financial aid, including Direct Subsidized Loans (if eligible) and Direct Unsubsidized Loans.\nContact your financial aid office to accept the financial aid, including student loans.\nSign any associated paperwork, such as the Master Promissory Note (MPN).\nMost students who qualify for federal aid are eligible to take out a Direct Unsubsidized Loan.\nYour family\u2019s financial circumstances do not matter. Even wealthy families can qualify.\nEnrolled at least half-time in an eligible degree or certificate program\nThe interest rates on Direct Unsubsidized Loans are fixed and do not change over the life of the loan.\nEvery year on July 1, interest rates reset for new loans first disbursed on or after July 1.\nThe interest on a Direct Unsubsidized Loan starts to add up (accrue) from the date the loan is first disbursed. If you don\u2019t pay the interest as it accrues, it will be capitalized (added to the loan balance) when you enter repayment, increasing the size of the loan.\nThe current fee (October 1, 2018 - September 30, 2019) on Direct Loans is 1.062%. Fees are deducted from each loan disbursement. You can ask the college financial aid office to increase the loan amount to cover the fees, up to the annual loan limit.\nThe amount you can borrow from the Direct Loans program is subject to annual and aggregate loan limits:\nAnnual limits specify how much you can borrow each academic year.\nAggregate limits (also called cumulative limits) specify how much you can borrow through the loan program.\nThe following graphic outlines the various loan limits for different types of students, and annual and aggregate limits for subsidized and unsubsidized loans.\nI am a dependent undergraduate student. How can I get my loan limits increased?\nIf you have unusual family circumstances (such as a parent in prison), contact your school\u2019s financial aid office and ask for a dependency override to get independent student limits.\nIf your parent is denied for a Parent PLUS Loan, you become eligible for the same loan limits as independent students. Contact your school\u2019s financial aid office for details.\nIf you are a first-time Direct Loans borrower, you will be required to attend entrance counseling before your loan funds are sent to your school (disbursed). Some schools require in-person counseling, but many offer online counseling. You will learn about the loan terms and requirements during the counseling session.\nThe interest on your Direct Unsubsidized Loans will start to accrue (add up) as soon as all of the loan funds are sent to your school. Even though you aren\u2019t making any payments, interest is still adding up.\nDirect Unsubsidized Loans are eligible for all of the different repayment plans offered by the U.S. Department of Education.\nBorrow Direct Subsidized Loans (if eligible) first.

In exchange for a 2-year commitment to work in a shortage area, primary care physicians, dentists and behavioral/mental health professionals may receive up to $60,000 to help them repay qualified education loans. Participants have the option to extend their service to receive additional loan repayment assistance. Half-time service may also be eligible, but involves a lower amount of repayment assistance or a longer commitment. This loan repayment assistance is tax-free.\nNurse Corps Loan Repayment Program (formerly the Nurse Education Loan Repayment Program). In exchange for a 2-year commitment to work in a shortage area, registered nurses, nurse practitioners and other advanced practice nurses may receive loan repayment assistance for up to 60 percent (30 percent per year) of the original balance on their qualified education loans. Participants may extend their service for a third year for an additional 25 percent in loan repayment assistance. This loan repayment assistance may be taxable.\nFaculty Loan Repayment Program (FLRP). In exchange for 2 years of service teaching future health professionals, medical school faculty from disadvantaged backgrounds may receive loan repayment assistance up to $40,000 plus additional funding paid directly to the IRS to offset any federal income and FICA tax liabilities.\nA few other government agencies also offer student loan forgiveness programs:\nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) offers the NIH loan repayment program to a small number of scientists, researchers and health professionals conducting medical research inside and outside the NIH. Applicants must have student loan debt that is at least 20 percent of the applicant\u2019s annual salary. The loan repayment program provides loan repayment assistance of up to $35,000 per year, plus a payment directly to the IRS to offset part of the taxes associated with the loan repayment assistance.\nThe U.S. Navy offers the Health Professions Loan Repayment Program (HPLRP) to encourage individuals with degrees in allopathic or osteopathic medicine, dentistry, nursing and other health professions to join the U.S. Navy or extend their active duty commitment. Medical and dental professionals may receive loan repayment assistance of $40,000 per year minus about 25 percent withholdings for federal income taxes. Servicemembers incur a minimum of two years of Active Duty Obligation or one year for each year of loan repayment assistance, whichever is greater. The U.S. Air Force and U.S. Army offer a similar Active Duty Health Professions Loan Repayment Program (ADHPLRP).\nThe Indian Health Service (HIS) offers the IHS Loan Repayment Program to encourage health professionals to serve Native American Indians and Alaska Natives. In exchange for a 2-year commitment to work at an Indian health program site, participants receive up to $40,000 in loan repayment assistance ($20,000 per year) plus payments to the IRS for federal income and FICA taxes. Additional loan repayment assistance may be obtained with additional years of service.\nThe National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers the Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment Program (VMLRP) to encourage veterinarians to serve in veterinary shortage areas. In exchange for a 3-year commitment, veterinarians receive up to $75,000 ($25,000 per year) in loan repayment assistance for veterinary school loans.\nThe Federal Perkins Loan provides loan forgiveness for full-time nurses and medical technicians providing health care services. It also provides for forgiveness for full-time speech language pathologists, if the pathologist has a Master\u2019s degree and works exclusively with schools that are eligible for assistance under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965. The amount of the loan forgiveness includes the interest that has accrued during the year and is set at 15 percent during each of the first two years of service, 20 percent per year during the third and fourth years and 30 percent during the fifth year.\nThe American Association of Medical Colleges (AAMC) publishes a database of federal and state loan forgiveness programs for health professions students.\nInformation about student loan forgiveness and loan repayment programs for physical and occupational therapy may also be available from the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA).",

        "raw_content": "Language Programs in City Schools Garner Bigger Share of Federal Aid\nLarge urban school districts are receiving a bigger share of federal money targeted for English-language learners than they did before the No Child Left Behind Act went into effect, according to the Council of the Great City Schools.\nMost of 47 urban districts that responded to a survey by the Washington-based council early this year reported that in each of the past two school years, they had received more funding under Title III of the No Child Left Behind Act, which provides money for English-language-acquisition programs, than they did through Title VII of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.\n\"Title III of No Child Left Behind: A Status Report From the Great City Schools,\" is posted by the Council of the Great City Schools. ( )\nTitle VII was replaced by Title III of the No Child Left Behind law, an overhaul of the ESEA enacted nearly three years ago.\nThe proportion of funds for English-language learners that is going to large urban districts also expanded.\nThose same 47 urban districts, which are members of the council, an advocacy group representing 64 districts, reported that in fiscal 2001, they received 8.8 percent of the money appropriated through Title VII of the ESEA. By contrast, in fiscal 2002, they received 17 percent of Title III funds. In fiscal 2003, their share was 18.9 percent, or more than double what they\u2019d gotten before the No Child Left Behind Act was implemented.\nPresident Bush signed the No Child Left Behind Act into law in January 2002.\nThe expansion in federal financing to help urban districts serve English-language learners results from an increase in appropriations for such students and a change in how the money is distributed, according to the report of the survey results, which was released last week.\nBefore the No Child Left Behind Act, schools or school districts received money for English-language learners through a competitive-grant process. Under the law, local districts now receive such funds as formula grants, based on the number of English-language learners they enroll.\nFor fiscal 2001, the federal government appropriated $610 million for Title VII, while for fiscal 2002, it appropriated $665 million for Title III. In 2003, the amount for Title III was increased by another $20 million.\nThe Los Angeles Unified School District received a hike in funding for English-language learners with the No Child Left Behind law, said Rita Caldera, the director of the language-acquisition branch for the 750,000-student district.\nFormula Grants\nLos Angeles schools received about $11 million under Title VII. Under Title III, however, the district was granted $23 million for each of the past two school years. This school year, the Los Angeles district, which has 326,000 English-language learners, expects to receive $26 million in Title III funds, according to Ms. Caldera.\nTitle III Support\nThe following 10 school districts received the most funds (in millions) under the program in the past two academic years.\nClark County, Nev.\nSOURCE: Council of the Great City Schools\nMs. Caldera believes that the change to formula grants rather than competitive grants benefits her district. Because the funding is now channeled through the central office of the district and is for all English-language learners, the district has been able to draw up an action plan for all English-language learners.\n\u201cWe are implementing professional development for all the teachers across our district,\u201d Ms. Caldera said. \u201cIt was something we weren\u2019t able to do before.\u201d\nGlynis Terrell, who coordinates programs for English-language learners in the Atlanta public schools, said her district received a little less for each of the past two school years than it had under Title VII. This school year, though, the district expects to receive $320,000, a hike over the $200,000 it received under Title VII in the 2001-02 school year.\nAbout 1,300 of the 51,000 students in Atlanta public schools are English-language learners.\nMs. Terrell views Title III as an improvement over Title VII because the current program spells out new requirements for districts to serve English-language learners and parents. For instance, she said, Title III mandates that districts provide professional development for teachers.\nJames Crawford, the executive director of the Washington-based National Association for Bilingual Education, said English-language learners are definitely getting more attention in school districts under the No Child Left Behind Act than they did previously.\n\u201cMy question,\u201d he said, \u201cis whether that attention is beneficial. It could not be beneficial if a lot of programs are dismantled because of these arbitrary achievement targets under the No Child Left Behind Act.\u201d\nUnder the federal law, schools could for the first time face sanctions for failing to raise the achievement levels of English-language learners.\nPublished in Print: October 27, 2004, as Language Programs in City Schools Garner Bigger Share of Federal Aid\n\u201cPaige Softens Rules On English-Language Learners,\u201d February 25, 2004.\n\u201cStates Developing Tests For English-Learners,\u201d November 26, 2003.\n\u201cEnglish Proficiency Can Take A While in State ESEA Plans,\u201d November 19, 2003.\n\u201cStates Scramble to Rewrite Language-Proficiency Exams,\u201d December 4, 2002.\n\u201cCalifornia's English-Fluency Numbers Help Fuel Debate,\u201d December 5, 2001.",

        "title": "Positive School Reform: Reimagining the ESEA - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Positive School Reform: Reimagining the ESEA\nBy Jack Jennings\nTeachers and other advocates for public education know what they oppose. Too much student testing. Too much emphasis on charter schools. Too much negative news about the schools. And not enough coverage of what is going right. Those are the common complaints\u2014and they are accurate.\nWhile we know what educators oppose, though, it is much more difficult to know what they are for. What would make the schools better for all children in the opinions of those whose job it is to educate? Further, what does research tell us would be most effective in improving education?\nI raise this issue because I have learned from nearly a half-century of involvement in education policy that if your agenda is not being carried out, then you are working to implement someone else's ideas. For decades, this is exactly what has happened. People from outside the field have been setting the agenda.\nTo be precise, business leaders, think tanks, state governors, and other political leaders have had much more influence in fashioning school reforms than have the people whose careers are in education. The No Child Left Behind Act, teacher evaluations based on inappropriately used state tests, and a tremendous emphasis on charter schools are prime examples of recent policies that were imposed on most educators.\nIn Presidents, Congress, and the Public Schools (to be published next month by Harvard Education Press), I examine the long history of externally imposed reforms, finding that they have seldom, if ever, had the success promised when first laid on the schools. This is not to say that there were no good results from these efforts, but nothing on the order of what our schools need to prepare students for the challenges of the future.\n\u2014Kali Ciesemier for Education Week\nI reached my conclusions despite the fact that I had spent an entire career creating many of these reforms, and, once they were enacted, arguing for their continuation. Reflection while writing this book has led me to support a far different approach today.\nFundamental rethinking of school reform is not happening as the new Congress tries to piece together legislation that will extend the No Child Left Behind Act. That 2002 law, the most recent reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, expired in 2008, and has since been extended by Congress on a yearly basis because lawmakers could not agree on an alternative. Discontent with NCLB was so strong, however, that some outlet had to be found for local and state frustrations. Consequently, the U.S. Department of Education granted 42 states waivers from provisions of the law. That process has let off steam by giving relief to the states and local districts from the worst requirements of the law. But public policy affecting nearly 40 million students should not be decided by an exchange of letters. Passing legislation through Congress is the way the U.S. Constitution prescribes for formulating policies.\nU.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., and U.S. Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., are to be commended, therefore, for moving bills to amend and extend the ESEA, and its 2002 No Child Left Behind amendments. As chairs of the Senate and House education committees, they are fulfilling their responsibilities in pushing for legislation.\nYet the content of the proposed legislation is largely an attempt to change some of the most defective parts of the law. In other words, it is a cleanup operation, not a fundamental rethinking of the philosophy behind NCLB/ESEA. This is not good enough.\nThe 50th anniversary of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act will be marked in April. Since I was involved, in one way or another, in most of those 50 years of national education policymaking, I set myself the task, several years ago, of reading the research and evaluations on federal aid to public schools, and of studying reform in general during that period.\nMy book, the culmination of that study, has a key conclusion: Providing a little additional aid through Title I of the ESEA, and pressuring teachers to raise test scores through NCLB, has not done the job of bringing about the improvement needed in American schools. We will have to start over from the beginning, I believe, and do a better job of thinking through the most crucial elements of making our schools better for most students.\n\"For decades, people from outside the field have been setting the education policy agenda.\"\nThe starting point should be what I consider the essence of education: a student, a teacher, a clear idea of what is to be learned, and the funds adequate to pay for this undertaking. Students should be prepared for school before they begin. Teachers should be effective and well-trained. The curriculum should be demanding. And funding should be fairly distributed to educate every child.\nThe United States has made some progress in these areas, but it still has a long way to go. A third of 4-year-olds from poor families do not participate in preschool programs, and many current programs lack quality. Half of public school teachers graduating from college in 1999 scored in the bottom third of students taking college-entrance examinations. Too often in schools, a watered-down curriculum is the standard. And students in some affluent districts have twice as much spent on their education as is spent on poor students in other districts in the same state.\nResolving such issues will take both time and courage. It will also mean looking at the federal role in education through a different, wider lens, and building more-effective partnerships between the states and the federal government. It should also include leadership from educators themselves to craft policies known through research to work. Most of all, it will take a deeper, more sustainable commitment by the nation and its people to providing high-quality education to all students, regardless of circumstance.\nDo we have the guts and the willpower to do it? Are educators, for example, ready to admit that school improvement depends on recruiting more teachers with good verbal skills and greater knowledge in the areas they teach? Are elected leaders willing to fairly distribute funds for education among school districts\u2014and provide funding adequate to the task of properly compensating teachers?\nIf we do\u2014and we must\u2014our first objective should be to encourage people to think differently about education, to get out of the box of tinkering with the current set of federal laws and programs. The solution to making American schools better is not to amend No Child Left Behind; instead, it is to deal directly with improving teaching and learning in the classroom. Change in that basic mission of schooling ought to be based on what research tells us can be used to improve the interaction between teacher and learner.\nTo my thinking, a revised federal role would include not only a state-federal program to improve classroom teaching and learning, but also a constitutional and legal right to a good education.\nPresidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, among others, have said that education is the civil rights issue of our time. Taking them at their word, I propose that education be considered a fundamental right under the U.S. Constitution, and that this be achieved either through a U.S. Supreme Court ruling or a constitutional amendment. Further, a statute similar to the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 ought to be enacted for education.\nThe struggle for civil rights for African-Americans and other racial and ethnic minorities involved Supreme Court decisions, forceful federal laws, and funding programs to secure those rights. That battle is not finished. Yet, progress has been made because the full panoply of policy instruments were employed in that fight.\nThe same comprehensive approach should be used to secure a chance for everyone to do well in school. This ideal ought to be our goal, and we are more likely to achieve it if a fundamental rethinking occurs about how to improve the schools. And this time, research should be the guide, and the voices of educators should be heard.\nJack Jennings was the founder, president, and CEO of the Center on Education Policy, in Washington. From 1967 to 1994, he served as the subcommittee staff director and then the general counsel for the U.S. House of Representatives' Committee on Education and Labor.

        "raw_content": "In what feels like another lifetime ago (but was less than five years ago), I got to know a remarkable woman through a mentoring program I was involved in. I\u2019ll keep the details vague, because hers is not my story to tell, but here\u2019s the gist: circumstances had left her in a very tenuous situation economically (and briefly homeless), with two children to support on her own.\nAt the time, living in my own middle-class bubble, I was mostly taken by how all of our systems seem designed to punish people living in poverty. How one late payment or car repair could spiral into an insurmountable burden of debt. I had known this already in the abstract, but to see it play out in real time in the life of someone I had come to care about was another thing entirely.\nNow, with a young child of my own, and with writerly ambitions of my own, what strikes me above all is how fiercely she fought for her creativity. Not only in the playful ways she used her imagination to lighten the darkest situations for her kids, but also in the time she insisted on for her own writing. She wrote no matter what else was going on. She remained active in an online community of fellow writers who were oblivious to the lack of resources she faced, who knew her only through the abundance and vitality of her words.\nThe subject of this post is scrappiness, in a few senses:\nThe literal scraps that I associate with the history of women\u2019s artistic expression in domestic life, whether the piecing together of quilts or the conjuring of meals.\nThe more figurative scraps: the leftovers of our time, energy, and other resources. They are oftentimes all we can manage for these personal passions, particularly when the creative work we do is separate from both our household responsibilities and the work we are actually compensated for.\nThe quality of determination and grit. The act of fighting for the time and space to do creative work.\nThe immediate inspiration for this post was a 1975 print by the artist Joan Lyons. I came upon it at the Harry Ransom Center on the UT campus a few months back. The piece, titled \u201cProm,\u201d is a life-size lithograph of a prom dress the artist had sewed for her daughter. The clothing is \u201cpressed into pages like an old corsage,\u201d to create a faded, scrapbook effect (see photo).\nClose-up of Joan Lyons' \"Prom\" (1975), on display at the Harry Ransom Center.\nThe accompanying placard explained that at the time, \u201cLyons had just received a grant\u2026to complete a print project when an urgent request to make a dress for her daughter\u2019s prom first postponed \u2013 and eventually displaced \u2013 her plans.\u201d Or, as Lyons puts it, \u201cWell, the artist was a mom; so the dress that delayed the work became the work.\u201d\nBut it\u2019s not just that her gig as a parent inspired a particular piece of art. Lyons was also emboldened to invent an artistic style that went against what she had learned, from a male-dominated art world, constituted Valid or Important Art:\n\u201cProm\u201d contradicted everything that I had been taught art should be\u2014namely abstract, universal, non-representational. This was personal, concrete, suspiciously narrative, and, worst of all, pastel.\nAside from her literal use of fabric scraps, I loved the scrappiness, the resourcefulness, of repurposing this artifact of motherhood for her art. Lyons\u2019 print got me thinking more generally about scarcity.\nHow does scarcity \u2013 of time and/or money \u2013 shape creativity, both the process and the product? Out of the disorder and noise of domestic life, what forms of work emerge?\nHere are a few examples, themselves mere scraps of ideas:\nA year and a half ago, I read Jenny Offill\u2019s literary novel Dept. of Speculation. The book is about, among other things, a couple with a young child whose marriage is in crisis, and a character (known only as \u201cthe wife\u201d) whose domestic life crowds out her artistic ambitions.\nDept. of Speculation had gotten a lot of positive buzz, but I didn\u2019t love it. At the time, though, I had a sixteen-month-old baby, and was slowly easing myself back into a pre-bed reading routine again (now that bedtime was a thing I could mostly count on). So, what I did love was the compact size (192 pages with lots of white space) and the parent-friendly form of the novel: short, tightly written chapters that could give me a five-minute reading fix before I collapsed into sleep.\nDid the author\u2019s writing process, like my reading process, consisted of little bursts and stolen moments, odd fragments that Offill later refined into a searing lyrical acuity? Regardless, the novel had a telegraphic style that telegraphed its content: the constant disruptions and short bursts of work that constitute those early years of parenting.\nOr, take the working-class writer Tillie Olsen. Born in 1912 to a socialist family on a tenant farm in Nebraska, she spent most of her life in low-paid work and political activism in addition to parenting and housework. According to literary critic Elaine Showalter, \u201c[Olsen] wrote daily in snatched time, even on buses or on lunch breaks, often on tiny bits of paper in a minuscule hand.\u201d She didn\u2019t publish her first book until age 50.\nIn later life, and coming to the women\u2019s movement in late middle age, Olsen struggled with the sense of lost time, lost effort. In Silences (1978), she explored how both family life and work disrupted women\u2019s writing:\nMotherhood means being instantly interruptible, responsive, responsible\u2026. It is distraction, not meditation, that becomes habitual; interruption, not continuity; spasmodic, not constant, toil. Work interrupted, deferred, postponed, makes blockage\u2014at best, lesser accomplishment.\nThere\u2019s such elegy and regret in these lines. Olsen would come to represent possibility for future generations of writers, particularly with feminist and working-class identities. But Showalter concludes that Olsen herself lost confidence in her ability to write, her cramped handwriting symptomatic of a \u201cdiminished writing self.\u201d\nScrappiness is as much the domain of the inventor as the artist. Beulah Henry, born in 1887, was \u201camong the most prolific of all American women inventors.\u201d The details vary wildly, but Autumn Stanley, in Mothers and Daughters of Invention, estimates that Henry originated over one hundred inventions and filed for 49 patents between 1912 and 1970.\nHenry never married or had children, but scrappiness is not just a trait (affliction?) of parents, of course.\nThis one quote is a beautiful testimony to the power of scraps:\n[Beulah Henry\u2019s] original models were often carved in soap, or made from materials at hand, such as hairpins, adhesive tape, buttons, clips, and spools\u2014or, as in one case, a rusty nail, a board, and a rock.\nDue to her lack of a formal technical background, Henry relied on professional model makers to fully realize her inventions. There\u2019s such a scrappiness, though, to how she overcame this lack of training; her clever use of found objects enabled her to articulate her inventive vision.\nBeulah Henry in 1929 with her \"protograph,\" a device that could be attached to a typewriter to produce an original and four typewritten copies without carbon paper.\nHenry went on to achieve a good deal of financial success. She was president of B.L. Henry Co. in New York City, and was also employed as an inventor by Nicholas Machine Works in the 1940s and \u201850s. She would go on to consult to various companies that manufactured her inventions, ranging from improvements on umbrellas, typewriters, sewing machines, and dolls to a \u201cKiddie Klock\u201d for teaching time. In the popular press, she acquired the moniker \u201cLady Edison\u201d (admittedly, this is both a testimony to what she had achieved and a diminishment of her achievement to a scrap of Thomas Edison\u2019s fame).\nMaybe I\u2019ve been collecting these stories because scrappiness is a lesson I\u2019ve been slow to learn. When it\u2019s 8:30 pm, and my son is finally in bed, and the dishes are washed, and the lunchboxes are packed, and I\u2019m physically and mentally spent, I (nearly) always lack the resolve to open my laptop and begin writing.*\nThe reality, though, is that my writing life, at least for the foreseeable future, will be spotty and distracted. And as a perfectionist, I\u2019m still in denial that good work can emerge from such an erratic, haphazard process. Like Tillie Olsen, I worry that \u201cthe marks of part-time; part-self authorship\u201d will remain, a visible, permanent record of my imperfect commitment to the work.\nAs a first step in a 12-Step Plan for Scrappiness Acceptance, I\u2019ve started an Excel spreadsheet titled \u201cTen Minutes of Ada.\u201d Charting the little bits of borrowed time for my Ada Lovelace project gives at least the illusion of forward motion.

He is generally called the Samian, and we know, at all events, that he lived for some time in that island, during or immediately before the famous tyranny of Polycrates. All manner of legends are told of the travels of Pythagoras to Egypt, Chaldaea, Phoenicia, and even to India. Others tell of a mysterious initiation at the sacred cave of Jupiter in Crete, and of a similar ceremony at the Delphic oracle. What is certain is that at some date towards the end of the sixth century B.C. he removed to Southern Italy, which was then extensively colonised by Greeks, and that there he became a great philosophic teacher, and ultimately even a predominating political influence.\nHe instituted a school in the strictest sense, with its various grades of learners, subject for years to a vow of silence, holding all things in common, and admitted, according to their approved fitness, to successive revelations of the true doctrine of the Master. Those in the lower grades were called Listeners; those in the higher, Mathematicians or Students; those in the most advanced stage, Physicists or Philosophers. With the political relations of the school we need not here concern ourselves. In Croton and many other Greek cities in Italy Pythagoreans became a predominant aristocracy, who, having learned obedience under their master, applied what they had learned in an anti-democratic policy of government. This lasted for some thirty years, but ultimately democracy gained the day, and Pythagoreanism as a political power was violently rooted out.\nCf. Guthrie, The Early Presocratics and the Pythagoreans - A Synopsis of Greek Philosophy\nNext Chapter : XENOPHANES / Previous Chapter : HERACLITUS\nA History of Greek Philosophy : Table of Contents",

McDermott\u2019s 2018 Digital Health Year in Review: Focus on Data report \u2013 the first in a four-part series \u2013 highlights notable developments and guidance that health care providers, digital health companies and other health care industry stakeholders should navigate in 2019. Here, we summarize four key issues that stakeholders should watch in the coming year. For more in-depth discussion of these and other notable issues, access the full report.\nEU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enhances protections for certain personal data on an international scale. US-based digital health providers and vendors that either (a) offer health care or other services or monitor the behavior of individuals residing in the EU, or (b) process personal data on behalf of entities conducting such activities should be mindful of the GDPR\u2019s potential applicability to their operations and take heed of any GDPR obligations, including, but not limited to, enhanced notice and consent requirements and data subject rights, as well as obligations to execute GDPR-compliant contracts with vendors processing personal data on their behalf.\nCalifornia passes groundbreaking data privacy law. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which takes effect on January 1, 2020, will regulate the collection, use and disclosure of personal information pertaining to California residents by for-profit businesses \u2013 even those that are not based in California \u2013 that meet one or more revenue or volume thresholds. Similar in substance to the GDPR, the CCPA gives California consumers more visibility and control over their personal information. The CCPA will affect clinical and other scientific research activities of academic medical centers and other research organizations in the United States if the research involves information about California consumers.\nUS Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Civil Rights (OCR) continues aggressive HIPAA enforcement. OCR announced 10 enforcement actions and collected approximately $25.68 million in settlements and civil money penalties from HIPAA-regulated entities in 2018. OCR also published two pieces of guidance and one tool for organizations navigating HIPAA compliance challenges in the digital health space.\nInteroperability and the flow of information in the health care ecosystem continues to be a priority. The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) submitted its proposed rule to implement various provisions of the 21st Century Cures Act to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in September 2018; this is one of the final steps before a proposed rule is published in the Federal Register and public comment period opens. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released its own interoperability proposed rule and finalized changes to the Promoting Interoperability (PI) programs to reduce burden and emphasize interoperability of inpatient prospective payment systems and long-term care hospital prospective payment systems.\nPosted in Benefit Controversies, Employee Benefits, Fiduciary and Investment Issues, Health and Welfare Plans\nA recent Eighth Circuit decision regarding \u201ccross-plan offsetting\u201d serves as an important reminder of how ERISA\u2019s fiduciary duties impact both employers and fiduciaries who handle claims.\nThe case involved the common practice of cross-plan offsetting, which occurs when a claims administrator resolves an overpayment to a provider by refusing to pay that provider for a future claim (or reducing the amount paid for that future claim)\u2014even if the latter claim was made by a participant in an unrelated plan. Cross-plan offsetting allows claims administrators to quickly recover overpaid benefits without the time and expense associated with one-off recovery actions against providers. Defendant UnitedHealth Group (UnitedHealth) initially applied this practice among its in-network providers, but then expanded cross-plan offsetting to non-network providers beginning in 2007. This practice was challenged by two out-of-network doctors in the case at issue, Peterson v. UnitedHealth Group, Inc.\nPosted in Employee Benefits, Employment\nWhen California\u2019s Dynamex decision rolled out the \u201cABC test\u201d, it placed the burden on the employer to prove independent contractor (IC) status. In a presentation at the Employment and Employee Benefits Forum in California, McDermott\u2019s lawyers discussed the implications of Dynamex, as it applies to various types of employers as well as those using staffing companies. Additionally, they cover Dynamex\u2019s impact on worker classification and employee benefits plans, particularly under ERISA.\nLastly, they provide best practices that employers can do now to prevent litigation.\nView the full presentation.\nJoin us this Friday, February 8, for an interactive discussion on minimizing liabilities when terminating employees.

Plaintiffs alleged that Georgetown breached its fiduciary duty of prudence under ERISA by selecting and retaining investment options with excessive administrative fees and expenses charged to the plans, and unnecessarily retained three recordkeepers rather than one.\nThe court dismissed most of the claims on the grounds that plaintiffs had not plead sufficient facts showing that they had individually suffered an injury. Because they challenged defined contribution plans (as opposed to defined benefit plans), the plaintiffs had to plead facts showing how their individual plan accounts were harmed. In this case, the named plaintiffs had not invested in the challenged funds, or the challenged fund had actually outperformed other funds, or, in the case of the early withdrawal penalty from the annuity fund, the penalty had been properly disclosed and neither plaintiff had attempted to withdrawal funds \u2013 thereby suffering no injury. Moreover, in dismissing the allegations that the Plans included annuities that limited participants\u2019 access to their contributed funds, the court rejoined, \u201c[i]f a cat were a dog, it could bark. If a retirement plan were not based on long-term investments in annuities, its assets would be more immediately accessed by plan participants.\u201d As to another fund, the court rejected the claim that the fiduciaries should be liable for the mere alleged underperformance of the fund, noting that \u201cERISA does not provide a cause of action for \u2018underperforming funds.\u201d Nor is a fiduciary required to select the best performing fund. A fiduciary must only discharge their duties with care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances, when they make their decisions.\nContinue Reading Georgetown University Defeats Retirement Plan Fee Litigation and \u201cIf a Cat Were a Dog, It Would Bark\u201d\nPosted in Employee Benefits, Health and Welfare Plans\nOn January 14, 2019, US District Judge Wendy Beetlestone in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania issued a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration\u2019s carveouts to the Affordable Care Act\u2019s (ACA) contraceptive coverage mandate. One day prior, US District Judge Haywood Gilliam in the US District Court for the Northern District of California issued a more limited injunction blocking the same carve outs from taking effect in 13 states plus the District of Columbia.\nOn October 6, 2017, the Trump administration issued rules that are the subject of these two decisions. The rules would have allowed employers to raise religious and moral objections to avoid the ACA\u2019s requirement that contraceptive coverage be provided without cost sharing under their group health plans. Under the ACA, certain contraceptive products and services are included in the list of preventive services that must be covered by most group health plans without cost sharing. The available exemptions to this rule were limited.\nJudge Beetlestone reasoned that the loss of contraceptive coverage would have resulted in \u201csignificant\u201d and \u201cproprietary harm\u201d to the states by causing increased use of state-funded contraceptive services, along with increased costs associated with unintended pregnancies. Without the preliminary injunction, the Trump administration\u2019s rules would have gone into effect on January 14, 2019. The preliminary injunction does not permanently block the rules, but rather it stops the rules from going into effect while legal challenges are being pursued. Judge Beetlestone indicated that she is likely to invalidate the rules, stating that the US Departments of Health and Human Services, Labor and Treasury exceeded the scope of their authority under the ACA by issuing the carve outs.\nCharnae Supplee, a law clerk in the Firm\u2019s Washington, DC office, also contributed to this post.\nThe US District Court for the District of Columbia recently held that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) exceeded its authority by reducing Medicare payment rates for 340B drugs, but, because of the budget-neutral nature of the cuts, the court left implementation details of its order temporarily unresolved to avoid disrupting administration of the Medicare Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System. It remains to be seen what remedies the court will ultimately order and whether CMS will appeal the decision.\nPosted in Employee Benefits, Retirement Plans\nIn late December, US Senator Ron Wyden introduced the Retirement Parity for Student Loans Act (Student Loan Act), which would allow employers to make matching contributions under 401(k), 403(b) and SIMPLE plans with respect to student loan repayments made by employees. If enacted, this legislation would provide powerful new guidance for employers looking to offer student-loan-repayment-related benefits to their employees.\nLast year, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) released a groundbreaking private letter ruling (PLR) that helped to clear the way for employers to begin providing student loan repayment benefits as part of their 401(k) plans. More specifically, the PLR confirmed that, under certain circumstances, employers might be able to link the amount of employer contributions made on an employee\u2019s behalf under a 401(k) plan to the amount of student loan repayments made by the employee outside the plan. However, the PLR only applied to the plan sponsor requesting the ruling and only addressed the specific issue and facts presented by the plan sponsor. As a result, although the PLR provided helpful guidance to employers, it also left many questions unanswered.\nIn response, many employers and industry groups have pushed for legislation that provides comprehensive guidance on how employers can and should structure student loan repayment benefits under their retirement plans. The Student Loan Act would address a number of the questions raised in response to the PLR and would provide employers more flexibility to offer student loan repayment benefits under their plans. In particular, the Student Loan Act would open the door for student loan repayments to be treated as elective deferrals under an employer\u2019s plan and to qualify for corresponding matching contributions (rather than the special non-elective contributions described in the PLR). In addition, the Student Loan Act would clarify nondiscrimination testing requirements for student loan repayment benefits and address how student loan repayment benefits may be provided under not only traditional 401(k) plans, but also under safe harbor 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans and SIMPLE plans.\nThe Student Loan Act is part of the broader Retirement Security & Savings Act, which has bipartisan backing. The prospects for enactment of the Student Loan Act and Retirement Security & Savings Act are uncertain. Nevertheless, the release of the Student Loan Act, and its inclusion as part of the Retirement Security & Savings Act, shows that legislators are responding to employer demand and industry group efforts to seek further clarification on how they can provide employees with student loan repayment benefits under their tax-qualified retirement plans.\nPosted in Benefit Controversies, Employee Benefits, Employment\nThere is significant risk and exposure facing senior leaders charged with workplace and workforce management.

Key issues of focus will include:\nEmployee Mobility: Local Challenges with Global Implications\nERISA Plan Controversy: Rising Stakes for Those Unprepared\nYour Attention, Please: Emerging Threats Lurk in Employment and Employee Benefits\n#MeToo Take Two: Liability Beyond Title VII\nLate last year, the Ninth Circuit held that in order to trigger ERISA\u2019s three-year statute of limitations a defendant must demonstrate that a plaintiff has actual knowledge of the nature of an alleged breach. Accordingly, the court held that merely having access to documents describing an alleged breach of fiduciary duty is not sufficient to cause ERISA\u2019s statute of limitations to begin to run. Instead, the court rejected the standard embraced by other courts and ruled that participants should not be charged with knowledge of documents they were provided by did not actually read. The Ninth Circuit\u2019s decision underscores circuit split over what is sufficient to demonstrate the existence of actual knowledge for purposes of triggering ERISA\u2019s three-year statute of limitations.\nTopics Select Category Benefit Controversies Employee Benefits Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) Employment Executive Compensation Fiduciary and Investment Issues Health and Welfare Plans Labor Privacy and Data Security Retirement Plans Uncategorized\nLegal NoticesPrivacy Policy\n\u00a9 2019, McDermott Will & Emery.

        "raw_content": "Home Literature and the Arts Art and Architecture Art: General Artwork\nAstronautics owes much of its existence to the arts. On the one hand, literary works by authors such as Jules Verne (1828-1905) were directly responsible for inspiring the founders of modern spaceflight; on the other hand, artists such as Chesley Bonestell (1888-1986)* made spaceflight seem possible. When Bonestell's space art was first published in the 1940s and early 1950s, spaceflight to most people still belonged in the realm of comic books and pulp fiction. Bonestell, working with such great space scientists as Wernher von Braun, depicted space travel with such vivid reality that it suddenly no longer seemed so fantastic. Emerging as it did when the United States was first taking an interest in astronautics, these paintings went a long way toward encouraging both public and government support.\nSpace Art Comes of Age\nSince Bonestell's time, there have been many other artists who have specialized in space art, though even in the early twenty-first century there are probably fewer than a hundred who work at it full-time. Some have been able to develop specialties within the field. Robert McCall and Pat Rawlings, for example, devote themselves to rendering spacecraft, while others, such as Michael Carroll and Ron Miller, concentrate on astronomical scenes, including views of the surface of Mars* or the moons of Saturn. Some artists are interested in how we are going to explore space, while others are more interested in what we are going to find once we get there.\nAlthough most space artists have a background in art, either as gallery artists or commercial artists, there are some notable exceptions. William K. Hartmann (b. 1939), for example, is a professional astronomer who happens to also be an excellent painter. He is able to combine his artistic talent with his expert knowledge of astronomy. Only a very few space artists have ever flown in space. Alexei Leonov, a Russian cosmonaut who was also the first man to walk in space, is a very fine painter who took drawing supplies with him into orbit. Vladimir Dzhanibekov is another cosmonaut who has translated his experiences in space onto canvas. Of the American astronauts, only one has had a serious interest in art. Alan Bean, who walked on the Moon in 1969, has devoted himself since retiring from the astronaut corps to painting and has become extraordinarily successful depicting scenes from his experiences in the Apollo program.\nThe artists who specialize in astronomical scenes perform a very valuable service. In one sense, they are like the artists who re-create dinosaurs. By taking astronomical information and combining this with their knowledge of geology, meteorology , and other sciences, as well as their expertise in light, shadow, perspective, and color, they can create a realistic landscape of some other world. Most often these are places that have never been visited by human beings or unmanned probes. In other instances, an orbiter or a spacecraft on a flyby mission may have already taken photographs of a moon or planet. In this case, the artist can use these photos to create an impression of what it might look like to stand on the surface. Since it can be very difficult to interpret orbital photos\u2014which look down on their subjects\u2014paintings like these are very useful in helping to understand what the features actually look like.\nUntil recently, most space artists worked in the same traditional materials, such as oil paint, acrylics, and watercolors, as other artists and illustrators. Many space artists now also use the computer to either enhance their traditionally rendered work or to generate artwork from scratch. Don Davis (b. 1952)*, one of the twenty-first century's best astronomical artists, no longer works with brushes at all, choosing instead to work exclusively on a computer. There are advantages, both technically and aesthetically, to both methods but it is very unlikely that the computer will ever entirely replace traditional tools. It is the wise artist, however, who is at least familiar with computer techniques.\nAn International Genre\nThere are space artists, both professional and amateur and both women and men, working in almost every nation. Indeed, one of the first great artists to specialize in the field, and who helped create it, was a French artist named Lucien Rudaux (1874-1947), who created beautiful space paintings in the 1920s and 1930s. Rudaux set a standard not exceeded until Bonestell published his first space art in the 1940s. Ludek Pe\u0161ek (1919-1999), a Czechoslovakian expatriate who lived in Switzerland, was probably the best and most influential space artist to follow Bonestell. Pe\u0161ek illustrated a dozen books with paintings of the planets that looked so natural and realistic it seemed as though they must have been done on location. David A. Hardy (b. 1936) of Great Britain is as adept at depicting spacecraft as he is landscapes of other worlds.\nNotable women artists include Pamela Lee, who is highly regarded for her meticulously rendered depictions of astronauts at work, and MariLynn Flynn, who creates planetary landscapes in the tradition of Bonestell and Pe\u0161ek. The membership roster of the International Association of Astronomical Artists, an organization of space artists, includes people from Germany, Armenia, Sweden, Japan, Russia, Canada, Belgium, and many other countries, all united by their mutual interest in space travel, astronomy, and art.\nsee also Bonestell, Chesley (volume 4); Literature (volume 1); Mccall, Robert (volume 1); Rawlings, Pat (volume 4); Verne, Jules (volume 1); von Braun, Wernher (volume 3).\nDi Fate, Vincent.

The traumas of slavery and displacement necessarily prevented many connections with the arts of the slaves' ancestral homes and certainly prohibited most slaves from any knowledge of the fine art practices of the Americas and Europe. It is indeed remarkable that there is any evidence of artistic practice; yet it is known today that some slaves were able to preserve some African artistic and cultural practices. Though in 1933 Alain Locke (1886\u20131954) contended, in his work Negro Art: Past and Present, that slavery had cut the cultural roots of transplanted Africans, other scholars have since argued that many traditions did survive in some measure.\nMuch of the African artistic practice that slaves brought to the Americas will be categorized as craft by some definitions of fine art. Yet the broader postmodern definitions of artistic practice would suggest that these craft practices be considered on an equal footing with European artistic traditions. The discovery of ceramic and other crafted objects, particularly at burial grounds in the South, reveals that some slaves in the Americas continued, probably with difficulty and perhaps in secret, to maintain some of their artistic and ritual practices. Small ceramic face vessels, some dated as late as 1860, found at burial grounds in South Carolina and Georgia, bear a resemblance to Kongo pottery. The vessels, which range in size from 4 to 9 inches high, depict a human face in relief on one side and are usually formed from two different clays, depicting, for example, brown skin and white teeth. According to records from the nineteenth century, the practice of placing pierced or cracked ceramic vessels was observed at slave burial sites, particularly in South Carolina. It is speculated that the face vessels were protective artifacts that reflect an African spiritual practice.\nSome traditional African artistic practices were preserved openly because of their value to slaveholders. For example, slaves from the Windward Coast of West Africa continued to create coiled fanning baskets that were used for the winnowing of rice, and they carved wooden mortars and pestles that were used to process the grains. In the case of the fanning basket, it may be suggested that its usefulness in the rice-growing economy of the Low Country of South Carolina and Georgia helped to preserve an African basket-weaving tradition. Indeed, present-day African American basket weavers of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, weave a traditional fanning basket that is similar to the baskets of West Africa.\nA shortage of skilled artisans, particularly during the colonial period, encouraged the acquisition of other artistic skills among American slaves. Slaves were apprenticed to various craftspeople to learn trades that included printing, engraving, and jewelry-making, and slaveholders profited from the work of skilled enslaved craftspeople. Edward Peterson's History of Rhode Island, published in 1853, suggested that the prominent portraitist Gilbert Stuart (1755\u20131828) received his first drawing lesson from a slave named Neptune Thurston, who worked in a Boston engraving shop. Much of the work of slave apprentices and artisans, including engravings, is undocumented, and their influence is unknown. Nevertheless, though most enslaved artists remain anonymous, a few individuals were able to make a transition from their work as artisans to become successful practicing fine artists, despite obvious obstacles.\nScipio Moorhead, an enslaved artist who was active in the late 1700s, is known primarily from his mention by poet Phillis Wheatley (1753\u20131784), herself a slave in the household of John Wheatley of Boston. Moorhead, a slave of Reverend John Moorhead, was apparently trained by Sarah Moorhead, John's wife, who taught art. Wheatley mentions two paintings by Moorhead: one titled Aurora and another that depicts the legend of Damon and Pythias. When her book of poetry, Poems on Various Subjects, was to be published in London in 1773\u2014financed by Selina Hastings (1707\u20131791), the Countess of Huntingdon\u2014Wheatley was asked to provide a portrait of herself to appear on the frontispiece. It is widely assumed that the portrait that appears in the book was engraved after a drawing by Scipio Moorhead, though he is not credited. The skillfully rendered portrait depicts the poet in a contemplative pose at her desk. Wheatley's poem \"To S.M., a Young African Painter, on Seeing His Works\" is a tribute to Moorhead:\nHow did those prespects [sic] give my soul delight,\nA new creation rushing on my sight?\nStill, wond'rous youth! each noble path pursue,\nOn deathless glories fix thine ardent view:\nStill may the painter's and the poet's fire\nTo aid thy pencil, and thy verse conspire!\n(Wheatley, p. 119)\nJoshua Johnston (1763\u20131832), also known as Johnson, a successful portrait painter of his time who worked in Baltimore, Maryland, is listed in the Baltimore city record of 1817 as a \"Free Householder of Colour,\" but scholars suggest that Johnston was born a slave; he arrived from the West Indies before 1790 and had been freed by 1796, when he advertised his services as a portrait painter. He is thus considered the earliest documented African American professional painter. Scholar J. Hall Pleasants (1942) noted that Johnston might have been the slave of either Charles Willson Peale or Peale's nephew Charles Peale Polk, observing the similarity of Johnston's work to that of Polk; though other historians disagree, it is known that several of Johnston's subjects were also painted by Polk. Johnston painted portraits of white families, including many depictions of children, as well as numerous portraits of prominent free blacks of Baltimore. Several of Johnston's portraits survive, including: Sarah Ogden Gustin (c. 1798\u20131802), now in the National Gallery of Art; Portrait of a Cleric (c. 1805), now in the Bowdoin College Museum of Art; Portrait of a Gentleman (c. 1810)\u2014identified as Reverend Daniel Coker, a founder of the African Methodist Episcopal church\u2014in the American Museum in Bath, England; and James McCormick Family (c. 1805), in the collection of the Maryland Historical Society.\nSculptor Eugene Warburg was born in New Orleans in 1826, the son of a German Jewish father, Daniel Warburg, and a Cuban mulatto slave, Marie Rose Blondeau. His father freed him (along with his mother) when he was a child. Eugene, who began his career as a marble cutter, opened a shop in 1849, producing mostly tomb sculptures. He studied in the 1840s with Philippe Garbeille, a French sculptor in New Orleans, who may have encouraged Warburg to pursue further study in Paris. Warburg left in 1853 to study at the \u00c9cole Nationale des Beaux-Arts, leaving his brother Daniel, whom he had trained, in charge of the New Orleans shop. Most of Eugene Warburg's works were sculptural portraits of political and military figures. In 1855 four of his works were accepted by the Salon de Paris, including Portrait de son excellence, le ministre des \u00c9tats-Unis \u00e0 Paris, a marble bust of John Young Mason, the U.S. minister to France. Warburg remained in Europe for the rest of his short life (he died in 1859), becoming the first African American expatriate artist.\nThe antislavery movement was closely connected to the work of black artists, though most of the known artists associated with the movement were free blacks. Abolitionists promoted the work of some artists, and patrons paid for the training of others, such as Patrick Reason, a printmaker and engraver, born in 1816, who produced engravings for the New York Anti-Slavery Society. Sculptor Edmonia Lewis (1845\u20131911), with a letter of introduction from William Lloyd Garrison (1805\u20131879), studied under Edmund Brackett and later achieved international acclaim in Europe. Photographer James Presley Ball, a free black, operated a successful daguerreotype studio and gallery in Cincinnati; in 1855 he published an antislavery pamphlet and mounted daguerreotype exhibitions on the subject. By the mid-nineteenth century, some free black artists, such as Robert Scott Duncanson (1822\u20131872), Robert Douglass, Jr., and Edward Bannister (1828\u20131901), were gaining acclaim.\nIn the mid- and late-nineteenth-century United States, it is certain that former slaves were among the many practicing black artists and artisans. Even during the years of slavery, enslaved artisans had sometimes been able to purchase their freedom by extra labor, beyond that which profited the slaveholder. Others fled possessing a marketable skill, as revealed by newspaper advertisements for the return of runaway slaves who were described as silversmiths, carpenters, and seamstresses, among other trades. Regrettably, most of the names of these artists will remain unknown.\nLewis, Samella, ed. African American Arts and Artists. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1990.\nPatton, Sharon F.

        "raw_content": "Real estate syndication is one way to acquire the necessary funding for real estate investing. Real estate syndication is the act of pooling money from various real estate investors and taking that investment money and putting it together to fund real estate projects. The real estate projects can be anything from simply purchasing a piece of residential or commercial real estate in total or to use to subsidize the mortgage on that property. This is an ideal way for a real estate investor to acquire more property and to even better profit in several different ways.\nSome of the ways to profit from conducting real estate syndication are through acquisition fees, which can range from reportedly anywhere between 1-5 percent. This simply means that the syndicator would be paid for structuring the real estate syndication deal and is general negotiable with the other investors taking part in the deal. Another way to make money is to be paid an asset management fee, which basically is about 1 percent of the gross in revenue that is made on the real estate syndication deal by serving as the manager of both the property and the syndicated partnership. Acquiring this fee will require continuous assurance that the property is being managed and operated efficiently, including managing such things as remodeling projects on the property. And a third way to make money on syndicating is through your equity participation, which can yield anywhere from 5-50 percent of your equity stake in the deal.\nWhen it comes to listing your real estate syndication deal, it is pertinent to understand the effects of where you list that deal. Most real estate agents or companies use their own sites, which then automatically load their offers onto the nationwide website Realtor.com via the MLS real estate system. However, understand that web exposure is the most important way to get your real estate syndication deals out there and relying on just the MLS or Realtor.com is not viable. There are many websites online that offer real estate syndication exposure, and it is important to do the research to find them. Some sites will offer you the option to help launch your deals out from their site for free or for a small 1fee while others will just let you use their site as an advertising tool. It is important to get your deals on as many sites as possible, and again figuring out who, how and where to put those deals to get them out to as many sites as possible is the best way to ensure success.",

        "raw_content": "DickensEnglishfamousliteraturequotesShakespeareTolkeinwell-known\nMost of us enjoy a good read, whether it is a novel that moves us to tears, a play that intrigues or a poem that rouses our passions, a piece of well-written literature can have an impact on our emotions, on our behaviour and on our value-systems. There are very few of us who can recall a piece of writing verbatim. There are specific quotes however, that stay with us. These can be useful in a variety of situations; from quiz to job interview, being or appearing to be well read can hold you in good stead. Here are a few examples.\nInspirational Literary Quotes\nFrom time to time, we all need a motivational boost. Sometimes we need to enthuse those around us. There is nothing more effective in these situations than a well-chosen inspirational quote from literature. Here are some favourites:\nAt the end of A Tale of Two Cities, Sydney Carton is awaiting his death by guillotine. For the sake of love, Carton has deliberately swapped places with another and in this quote is contemplating both his own self-sacrifice and the fate of France.\nThe Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R. Tolkein\nThis quote is from a conversation between Gandalf and Frodo and follows Gandalf\u2019s telling of the story of the Ring. Frodo expresses regret that these things have happened during his lifetime. Gandalf\u2019s response suggests both a responsibility to do that which we have been destined to do, and a lack of control over our fates.\nOh, the Places You\u2019ll Go! Dr Seuss\nFor a children\u2019s book, \u2018Oh, the Places You\u2019ll Go!\u2019 is pretty inspirational. We don\u2019t find out exactly who the \u2018you\u2019 protagonist is, but the story follows him through a myriad of strange places and the reader finishes convinced of the benefit of endeavour and adventure.\nAnother book written for children but loved by adults. This is a comment made by Professor Albus Dumbledore to Cornelius Fudge. Cornelius has expressed the opinion that \u2018Muggles\u2019 and \u2018Mudbloods\u2019 (humans and half-humans) are inferior to wizards and witches. Albus responds by asserting that it is not pedigree that matters but talent.\nRomantic Literary Quotes\nIf you have ever been in a romantic situation where you want to say exactly the right thing, but find yourself tongue-tied, you might like to choose from this section of romantic literary offerings.\nHe Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven, W.B. Yeats\nNot being satisfied with roses or diamonds, in this poem Yeats suggests that, if he had access them, he would lay out the heavens for his love to walk on. In his reference to \u2018dreams\u2019, he admits that he has little to offer but nonetheless pleads a gentle reception.\nHere Cathy is talking to Nelly, the family servant, about her inescapable connection to Heathcliff. She recognises that her feelings for Linton, whom she is going to marry, are entirely different to her almost spiritual relationship with Heathcliff.\nMaybe the most famous love story of all time, Romeo and Juliet\u2019s ill-fated affair is known to most of us. The beautiful quote above is the start of Romeo\u2019s comparison of Juliet to the sunlight as she leans over her balcony.\nLiterary Quotes for Business\nThe business world can be a tough one. You are bound to have days when you wonder whether the results are worth the effort. If this sounds like you, if you are struggling for a bit of employee motivation or if you need to give some sound advice, read on.\nUlysses, Alfred Lord Tennyson\nIn this poem Ulysses, of Troy fame and also known as Odysseus, has completed his ten-year voyage home to Ithaca from Troy and is considering his future as an older man. He has realised that he is now facing a different kind of battle, not against enemies, but against the inevitable process of aging.\n\u201cWhenever you feel like criticizing anyone \u2026 just remember that all the people in this world haven\u2019t had the advantages that you\u2019ve had.\u201d\nNick Carraway is the narrator of this story. He is portrayed as an Everyman, in other words, a typical human being. Nick is presented as having a level of uprightness that the other characters lack. The inclusion of this piece of paternal advice at the very start of his narration suggests that he is exhorting us to reserve judgment ourselves.\nThis quote is part of Atticus Finch\u2019s lesson to his son Jem on the subject of courage. Atticus wants Jem to understand that courage comes in different forms; they are talking about the death of Mrs Dubose who, before she died, successfully fought a morphine addiction.\nUnderstanding the meaning of life is a quest that has occupied mankind for some time now. We are not suggesting that we know all the answers, but here are a few famous quotes from literature that might give you a bit of food for thought.\nHere what Prospero is referring to is the sleep of death. He is alluding to the transitory nature of life, likening it to the temporary world of acting and the ephemeral realm of the spirits.\nA self-explanatory excerpt from a much-loved Winnie-the-Pooh poem, this quote might appeal to those of you who enjoy food but understand the benefits of getting outside and exercising after dinner. A reminder maybe that life is not all about indulging ourselves.\nThis poem was written about Aragorn, a humble human king who undertakes great journeys and explorations. It is used twice in \u2018The Fellowship of the Ring\u2019, once by Gandalf in a letter to Frodo and later by Bilbo, and is an attempt to persuade Frodo of Aragorn\u2019s importance to Middle Earth. It is also an exhortation to the reader to see beyond his own value systems.\n\u201cThe Answer to the ultimate question of Life, The Universe and Everything is\u202642!\u201d\nYou can make what you want of this answer, and that was the author\u2019s intention. In the story, the supercomputer \u2018Deep Thought\u2019 has taken a very long time to work out that the answer is \u201842\u2019 but is quick to point out the meaninglessness of this answer, because no human being actually knows what the question was. This answer has perhaps become more famous than the book itself.\nThe world of literature is full of inspirational, moving and funny quotes. We hope that you have enjoyed our small selection and that you find them useful. If any of them have had an impact on you, why not try reading the whole book, poem or play.

        "raw_content": "Graduating High School Student Term Paper\nResearch Methodology. Research, albeit clinical, philosophical, historical, experimental or participatory, has its own unique design and purpose. Wherein experimental research attempts to control variables to determine effects, descriptive research assesses existing differences between variables. Wherein philosophical research is designed to reason the interrelatedness of timeless concepts, historical research is conducted to determine trends in events or ideas that have developed or taken place in the past and may pr may not have an impact on the future. The current study proposes a historical and descriptive design wherein past information relating to the efficacy of single sex high school educational with respect to college success will be examined and compared against coeducational education individuals. The data collected and examined will be both historical and numerical in nature and a testable hypothesis and statistical data analysis tools will be stated and given the appropriate support. Further, as the proposed research is historical and descriptive by design supportive information for the research question will be provided form literature deemed proprietary.\nLiterature reviews, or historical studies, permit the researcher to use the work and efforts of previous researchers in answering the currently proposed question. Possible obstacles to literature reviews include the possibility that much has not been done on the narrowly defined topic needed. In the case of this study however it is believed that the information contained in already published literature will be enough to draw educated conclusions and answer the questions and test the hypothesis in this study. This proposed study would use 10 published articles to determine how same sex high schools impact students when it comes to entering coeducational colleges.\nMain Effects Hypothesis. The proposed study will attempt to test the null hypothesis that states no statistically significant differences at the alpha level of. <\u0000.05 exists between students from single sex high school educational systems and coeducational systems with respect to college success. For the proposed study college success will be limited to freshman year college grade points over four quarters of study wherein at least 12 credit hours were attempted. The secondary null hypothesis will be stated with reference to no statistically significant differences existing between male and female success rates of college freshman with respect to single sex high school educational and coeducational backgrounds. If data is available nested variables will be examined with respect to socioeconomic class, parent marital status, and high school graduating size.\nAssessment Instrument. A questionnaire will be developed to garner the necessary information needed. Responses will be quantified and subjected to an orthogonal analysis of variances seeking effects and differences between and among the sample populations.\nStatistical Analysis Tool. In order to examine the data obtained by the questionnaire an orthogonal analysis of variance will be employed to seek differences and effects between and amongst the independent variables upon and between the dependent variables.\nMany studies have been conducted with respect to same sex educational activities such as sports, knowledge attainment, social interaction, peer pressure, leadership qualities, and role identification. The findings among those studies provide a strong foundation for the need to study the impact of a same sex high school has on the student later in life - especially college life. Prior to an examination of whether or not students entering college from same sex high schools are better prepared or lesser prepared to be successful in college it is important to first examine the general expectant qualities colleges and universities look for in entering students. Several adjustments are required when a person leaves high school and enters college. Leaving a comfortable home environment and being thrust into one that is study intensive, time constraining, decision making impacted, and heavily procedure restricted requires a great deal of adjustment on the part of the new entering student. Therefore, any discrepancy between college expectations and high school instruction must be addressed and done so cooperatively (Schmeiser, 2003). In the main colleges and universities expect entering freshman to be well prepared to manage a demanding workload, develop life long learning strategies, take ownership of their learning, adjust to the college environment, explore various academic choices, and independently navigate through the various services offered by the higher learning institution. The remainder of this literature review will concentrate on whether or not a single sex high school education does, indeed, prepare and strengthen the academic, psychological and sociological skill set needed by students to fulfill and maintain the aforementioned requirements. At the same time colleges and universities have an obligation to entering students by way of being knowledgeable from where the students came, the adjustments new students must make, as well as their learning style and intellectual capabilities (Erickson & Strommer, 1991). Only when knowledge about entering freshman students is share will the student be better prepared to complete the requisite college curriculum needed for matriculation.\nThe literature is not replete with studies on male and female single gender education as being a better road to college success than coeducational venues. However, studies by Spielhofer, O'Donnell. Schager & Schager, (2002) and Flanagan (2001) adamantly support the notion of single sex high school education on the basis of educational advancement; i.e., separation of the sexes in high school supports greater learning and knowledge attainment, therefore a better preparatory mechanism for college success. At the same time writers such as Strauss (2004) maintain that creating a single sex educational system is elitist and caters predominately to girls and questions the omission of emphasis on male participation. Whether or not one is for or against singles sex high schools or single sex classes within high schools needs extensive investigative research.\nStudies that have been conducted have generally focused on the degree to which single sex education prevents or retards the developmental process with respect to adaptation to coeducational situations, albeit, academic, sport, or social related. Once such study by Stephens and Bredemeir (1996) involved a thorough analysis of female and male participants in sports activities and concluded that single sex activities prevented normal growth and development needed for adapting to coeducational activities. This alone would have a significant effect on individuals entering college who are expected not only to be tolerant of cultural diversity but gender tolerant as well. The greater the extent to which gender involvement has not been practiced the less likelihood that learning will be maximized and attained visa via the college experience. In addition a study commissioned and prepared by the National association of Girl's Schools (1999) revealed that an all girls' school academically prepared the students better for college but also personal and social needs were better fulfilled and that academic grades were higher than their female counterparts in coed schools. In addition a study commissioned and prepared by the National Association of Girl's Schools (1999) revealed that an all girls' school academically prepared the students better for college but also personal and social needs were better fulfilled and that academic grades were higher than their female counterparts in coed schools. In fact as far back as 1982 a study conducted by Trisket, Trisket, Castro and Schafner (1982) reported positive effects of single sex (girls) education particularly for non-affluent females, at risk students, African-Americans and Hispanics with respect to task accomplishment, skill attainment, and personal growth. This is significantly important when considering the low rate of college admissions for the aforementioned groups. Lee and Marks (1990) used the same logic in the thesis of their research regarding single sex education and supported the notion that single sex educated girls performed better in college scholastics then did their coeducational female counterparts. At the same time LaPore and Warren (1996) reported that single-sex education (i.e., for girls) was not that advantageous with respect to achievement scores. This is an interesting fact with respect to college admission being highly dependent upon a student's achievement test rating.\nRecognizing the need for further data additional studies are needed with respect to the relevance and importance of single sex education. The problem placed before an educator is not a simple one, rather one built upon complexity. Answers must be garnered as to academic relevance, personal and educational success, and life long learning fulfillment. This is the primary reason behind the current investigation.\nClinton, Sen.

        "title": "Term Paper: Ray Kroc Paying Particular Attention \u2026 | 20 Pages",
        "raw_content": "Ray Kroc Paying Particular Attention Term Paper\n[. . .] (Mascola, 1989, p 10)\nIn all these efforts, it must be said that more than himself, Kroc had faith in other individual because of the fact that it was upon them that he depended to be successful. F one looks at the way that Kroc achieved success it can be seen that he used the people to provide them with services, and profited from it. However, it could be said that such a strategy was a risk, but it was a risk that Kroc was willing to take in order to gain control. Perhaps he estimated that he would at least be able to pay back the loans he had taken through the same restaurant he purchased in case he was not able to expand the business successfully. However, things worked out in his favor and he expanded across the country. (Mascola, 1989, p 15)\nLater, in 1977 when according to data the organization was not doing as well as it used to Kroc's aspirations took him further. This may be said because of the fact that this was the time when Kroc decided to employ a newer strategy that would overshadow the previous one in which he decided to supply quality fast-food across the country with the same standard. Kroc decided to re-launch McDonald's on an international scale. (Ciulla, 1995, p 6) Though at first the process was slow, with the occurrence of globalization in years to come McDonald's outlets were seen across the globe. By mimicking his previous strategy of nationwide advertising programs Kroc also used a similar strategy which had international appeal. Again here, it can be seen that Kroc was determined to get the organization off the floor, and did so using the very people whom he wished to serve. By putting his customers first, he managed to gain immense support for the business. The advertisement for McDonald's was almost synonymous to American food, and people who were deprived of American culture in their regions were given the opportunity to experience it. This was a thundering success as several franchises opened. The reason for this immediate success was because of the fact that Kroc had already laid the foundations for an international success. All that was really needed was an introduction to the organization overseas. (Mascola, 1989, p 15)\nBusiness leadership in the light of globalization today is a field that requires the best of skill in managing business practices. Indeed, leading a business is a responsible job, and in this highly competitive and globalized world quality leadership in an organization is of great importance. (Barnes, 1996, p 430)\nManaging businesses today is a sensitive process that defines whether or not a business will be successful. Business Leadership today is a science that requires the best of skills that one should be equipped with to survive in places like the international market or as top producers in a single country. Competition is tough nowadays since there are many who are aware of all the tricks in managing business. With certain businesses emerging as the leaders in the market they also have to prove themselves and remain there. Becoming number one is easier than remaining number one. This is because of the fact that there will be other businesses that will mimic similar strategies in order to reach where any other has. (Avolio & Bass, 1999, p 450)\nObserving the manner in which Kroc gained success so quickly overseas, it must be realized that this affect was a result of the manner in which he established and maintained the fast-food chain that he worked hard for. This again brings to mind the manner in which he treated some of his employees. But it must be realized that this was perhaps one of the side effects of sticking strictly to standards. In this argument it could be stated that by firing an employee fear is created and other employees automatically take care of what standards they have to stick to. By committing such cruelty it must be realized that an owner or a chairman puts his or her business first. Nothing comes in the way of a businessman and success. In particular, nothing came between Kroc and his work, as he said that when he was at work McDonald's came before God (Kroc & Anderson, 1990).\nHow important was change to this person's career, and how did he/she deal with it? Was ability to foresee and cope with change critical to success?\nSince the beginning of McDonald's, Kroc appeared to be an individual ready to conform to change. In fact it could also be said that he thrived on change and was instrumental in bringing about change. This is something that is witnessed from the time that an idea clicked in Kroc's mind when he stared at a hamburger while he worked for McDonald brothers.\nAs exemplified in the account about the change that Kroc thought of when he working for the company, his career began with change and this was a major move. By buying the organization off the McDonald brothers, it can be seen Kroc was ever willing to confront change in his career. His approach to his career was one that was gutsy because of the fact that there is a large amount of risk that he accepted along with the possibility of momentous success.\nCoping with change appears to be a strong point in Kroc, as he was responsible for the change that he induced to begin his career. Perhaps because of the fact that he was able to foresee situations that he induced change in his career. Clearly, this is what was seen when Kroc created the chain in America with standards being maintained equally across the country. His foresight was proved accurate as he achieved what he set out to do. Also, he managed to have these standards maintained for years to come, signifying the success he had in this part of his career.\nLater, when sales went down in the late to mid 1970s, Kroc was faced with new challenges. At this point in his career he had to face changes and cope with them to continue the success of his business. In an attempt to ameliorate the condition of the business, as it had depreciated, Kroc designed another strategy. This strategy was one that overshadowed what he designed and implemented in the past. It was one that would gain him worldwide recognition in addition to covering the losses that McDonald's had faced in recent years. This wider approach that targeted the international market exemplifies Kroc's thinking. Such a strategy was a total knockout in response to the losses he faced within the U.S. (Mascola, 1989, p 15)\nIt must be said here that facing change in business and coping with it effectively certainly does determine the extent of success in business, as demonstrated by Kroc. This ability to face change effectively is a result of possessing particular traits that are necessary for survival in the market. Foresight is the trait that Kroc has demonstrated most effectively in the light of change, and had used it effectively to rejuvenate the organization.\nHow did he/she maintain the aura and impression of a strong, effective leader? (How a prince should organize his militia)\nThere were several elements that contributed to defining the image that Kroc had carved for himself though his work. Little about his personal life needs to be included in this description as it is concerned with an image of his professionalism. Kroc, a man of strong will and desire to conquer proved himself as a businessman through the ideas that he developed over a period.\nAs pioneer of the chain of fast-food outlets in the U.S. he maintained control by placing himself in a vital position that determined the success of the organization. This is because of the fact that he endured many long and hard days to make sure that standards were being maintained throughout the chain. Franchises also had to come up to par and prove that they could serve customers the way that Kroc expected them to.\nKroc always put the customers first and expected all staff members at all outlets to conform to certain standards and not to compromise on them. Indeed, in his own words, Kroc says, \"If you work just for money, you'll never make it, but if you love what you're doing and you always put the customer first, success will be yours\" (McDonald's Corporation, 1996).\nAs a leader, Kroc organized himself extremely well by placing himself in a position among others to keep a bird's eye view on the business. He was not an individual who ruled through slyness. In fact his strategy was one that was very open because all employees knew that he would\u2026 [END OF PREVIEW]\nRisk and Strategic Management Essay \u2026\nRisk assessments inform decision making about effective actions for 'managing' risk - i.e. avoiding, removing, reducing, improving and generally controlling risks.\" (Waring and Glendon, 2007)\nRay Film Analysis Term Paper \u2026\nThe film Ray (Taylor Hackford, 2004) would be categorized in the parlance of the film business as a biopic, which often means more pic than bio as filmmakers go\u2026\nHow and Why Did X-Ray Technology Come to Be Used in Medicine Essay \u2026\n\u00b6 \u2026 Ray Technology in Medicine\nHow and why did x-ray technology come to be used in medicine?\nIn a period spanning more than the last century, the medicine world\u2026\nRay Kroc Paying Particular Attention.

        "raw_content": "Investors say private sector must tackle climate change\nInstitutional investors with a collective $26 trillion under management have opened a new front in the fight against climate change, urging the private sector to mobilise and find new technologies to cut greenhouse gas emissions.\nThe pricing of planet-warming carbon emissions, which underscores the EU\u2019s Emissions Trading System, is \u201cnice\u201d but not essential, says Kevin Parker, global head of Deutsche Asset Management.\n\u201cIt's not going to be long before an investor looking to roll out a new energy plant has to take solar and wind and other forms of renewables very seriously,\u201d Parker said on the fringes of a UN investor summit in New York.\n\u201cIt's coming down to following the bouncing ball of money, because it's money that talks.\u201d\nInside the 12 January session, which drew more than 400 representatives of banking, insurance, government, labour and institutional investing, the UN\u2019s Roland Rich warned attendees against \u201cputting all our eggs in the government basket.\u201d\n\u201cThe carbon-burning economy is tomorrow's Rust Belt,\u201d Rich said. \u201cYour job, it seems to me, is to invest in the Microsofts and Googles of the green economy.\u201d\nParker and others noted that climate change sceptics and deniers, especially in the United States, made tackling the problem more difficult.\nRichard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO labour federation that represents some 12 million US workers, was blunt: \u201cIt is clear that as long as Congress is effectively controlled by climate change deniers, all of us \u2013 investors, companies, workers and the broader public \u2013 must take action ourselves.\u201d\nTrumka outlined how his federation had invested more than $200 million in efficiency projects \u2013 such as retro-fitting buildings \u2013 and committed some $1.2 billion in workers' pension assets to infrastructure investments.\nMany were disappointed that the December UN Climate Summit in Durban, South Africa, ended with an agreement to forge a binding new deal limiting carbon emissions by 2015, which would enter into force by 2020.\n\u201cWe as the major capital providers have got to work this out. We cannot look to government to solve this problem,\u201d said Anne Simpson of CalPERS, the giant pension and health benefits agency.\n\u201cI think it's a turning point from petitioning politicians into thinking about this as an investment challenge. For me, that's liberating.\u201d\nCalPERS, which covers more than 1.6 million California public employees, retired workers and their families, has a portfolio of about $225 billion. Of that, Simpson said, more than $12 billion was in clean technology, green infrastructure and other environmentally friendly investments.\nThe 'Copenhagen Accord' agreed at in the Danish capital in December 2009 included a pledge by developed countries to raise $100 billion per year by 2020 to help poor countries fight climate change and adapt to its inevitable consequences.\nMeeting the following year in Canc\u00fan, the 190 nations involved in the UN talks made progress on the establishment of a Green Fund to deliver climate cash to developing countries.\nThe fund will be governed by a board of 24 members, on which developed and developing countries will be equally represented.\nEuropean CommissionInternational climate finance\nEuropean Investment BankThe European Investment Bank and Climate Finance [FR]\nUnited NationsInvestor Summit on climate risk and energy solutions\ncap and trade market\n0 responses to \u201cInvestors say private sector must tackle climate change\u201d\nSo nothing has changed then all mouth and no trousers.\nThis is pitiful when you see that there are worthy projects being developed all around the EU and into places like Malta Cyprus Turkey and the likes that can be exercised with great fiscal support in projects for Biofuels where the construction costs can be 40% lower than the rest of the EU.\nHere in the US (and elsewhere), if we would simply lower the 50 state National freeway speed limit to say 100 klicks (62.5 mph) we\u2019d reduce emissions overnight!!

        "raw_content": "[Blog Series] World Health Day \u2013 Diabetes and RMNCAH in Africa: M for Maternal Health\nWomen and newborns are the heart of midwifery. To a midwife, nothing is more important than making sure that each woman and newborn access to the best possible care before, during and after pregnancy and childbirth. And to the best partnership to a woman who is pregnant or giving birth, is one with skilled midwife. This is something that every woman must have access to.\nAlthough progress is being made, thousands of women continue to be affected from complications during pregnancy such as gestational diabetes which could be detected early and treated or managed with proper antenatal, delivery and post-natal care\u2014all services which are provided by midwives.\nThe World Health Organization (WHO) predicts that diabetes will become the seventh leading cause of death in the world by the year 2030. Pregnant women are at risk of getting gestational diabetes and are at an increased risk of complications during pregnancy and after delivery. They are also at increased risk of getting type 2 diabetes. If left untreated or uncontrolled, gestational diabetes can cause health problems to both mother and child; such as:\nBaby being born very large with extra fat, this can make delivery difficult and more dangerous for the baby thus a need for caesarean section.\nIncrease the risk of high blood pressure during pregnancy, low blood glucose right after birth and breathing problems for the baby.\nGestational diabetes is serious, so it is important for pregnant women to have access to care and services to ensure the best health outcomes for them and their babies. Evidence shows that well-trained and skilled midwives could deliver 87 percent of essential care needed for all women and newborns. Where available, a qualified midwife in collaboration with other skilled health workers can partner with pregnant women to help prevent, detect and treat gestational diabetes.\nWorldwide, there are over 400,000 pregnancies per day, and each of these women need and must access quality maternal health services, to ensure her well-being throughout her pregnancy. Every woman regardless of their background has a right to these quality reproductive health services, which is ideally provided by a midwife. However, many of these women, especially in the developing world, do not get these important services and therefore may be at risk for developing complications.\nMidwives play a unique role for pregnant women and their families through partnership with women to promote self-care and the health of mothers, infants and families; and a focus on health promotion and disease prevention that views pregnancy as a normal life event.\nWell-educated, regulated, and supported providers are also a key to progress, because midwives and others through professional associations can be a profound and powerful voice for change in countries.\nTherefore, on this World Health Day, the International Confederation of Midwives emphasizes the need for increased investment in midwifery services, thus contributing to early detection of complications such as gestational diabetes. It is our vision that every childbearing woman has access to a midwife\u2019s care for herself and her newborn.\nFrances Ganges",

        "raw_content": "There are just some things that are unnecessary to say\u2026\nAs expats, there are some often repeated phrases and questions from others that tend to make our blood pressure rise and maybe make us want to disinvite them from ever visiting. If you\u2019re an expat, you\u2019ll probably be familiar with most of these.\nIf you do have friends or family who constantly say these things, maybe sharing this with them might be a not-so-subtle hint\u2026\nAre you homesick?\nIt\u2019s normal for anyone to miss home. We\u2019re human after all and we develop attachments, missing our families, friends, favourite foods and the way of life. The intentions behind the question might not be bad but hearing it often is annoying, because what kind of answer do you expect other than yes? Helping us feel less homesick would be a better way to go.\nYes, being an expat is a great experience, but that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s all sunshine and rainbows. Relocating takes a lot of courage and it\u2019s hard, unsettling, lonely and stressful.\nSEE ALSO: The 13 stages of becoming a new expat\nAll the everyday issues we would face at home, we\u2019ll mostly still face them abroad, except in a new country with new rules and no support system. And the idea of luck negates that we actually worked hard to get to where we are.\nAre you fluent yet?\nThis isn\u2019t even logical. Do you know how difficult and how long it would take to be fluent at a language? Most expats try very hard, day after day, to pick up common phrases and it\u2019s very frustrating to not be able to get the majority of phrases correctly. This kind of question will just make some feel inferior and there\u2019s no point to it.\nPlease, it can\u2019t be that bad!\nIf we\u2019re complaining about something going wrong with our visa process or not being able to open a bank account, we\u2019re not exaggerating! In reality, it\u2019s probably even worse. Being an expat makes things a lot more complicated to get everything sorted and the consequences are a lot more significant than back home.\nIt\u2019s even worse when you reduce our problems to nothing because some of us live by the beach. We might be in a sunnier place, but it doesn\u2019t make the problems melt away.\nNot that it matters to you\nMoving doesn\u2019t mean we stop caring about our home countries and what\u2019s going on there. On the contrary, we probably keep up with the latest news a lot more than when we were in the country.\nWhen are you moving back home?\nUprooting our lives and packing them in suitcases wasn\u2019t just for fun. Sure, we might move back one day, but we\u2019ll know that when the time comes. We\u2019re trying to make the most out of this new home and support would be more appreciated than assuming it\u2019s simply a phase.\nannoying phrases",

The general landscape is flat but it has area of raised ground that supports deciduous woodlands and grasslands. Extensive areas covered by grasslands are inundated by water forming valuable seasonal wetlands in the rainy season. There are however extensive areas of permanently inundated wetlands especially near rivers. Grasses have lush growth and there are species which can reach 2-3 meters in height. Other important habitats include the river edges and their cut-off lakes. Gambella teems with a wide variety of wildlife and 41 larger mammals have been recorded here. The most common are Buffalo, Giraffe,Taing (Topi), Waterbuck, Roan Antelope, White-eared Kob, Nile Lechwe, Burchell\u2019s Zebra, Bushbuck, Reedbuck, Warthog and Elephant. The rivers host healthy populations of Hippopotamus and Nile Crocodiles. The park has at least 300 bird species of which 11 are Sudan-Guinea Biome species. Nile perch weighing up to 100 kg have been caught from the Baro River. Besides these an unknown number of fish, amphibian and reptile species are expected from this region.\nGambella has a diverse set of Wildlife,Which the country shares with neighboring countries. Vast collections of plain games are observed and could arguably be one of the best wildlife areas of the country. Major wildlife conserved includes white-eared Kob, Nile Lechwe, Roan Antelope, Topi and Elephant. The near threatened Shoebill and Basra Reed Warbler have been recorded from here back in the 1960s. The area holds 11 Sudan-Guinea Biome species holding 69% of Ethiopia\u2019s total assemblage for this category.\nThe park area is home to the Nuer and the Anuak people. Both sexes of the Nuer favor cicatrisation, an adornment causing bumps in various patterns on their bodies. It is about 5060 sq.km in area. Originally the park was created for protection of extensive swamp habitat and ts wildlife. Located on the Akobo river system it hosts several wildlife not found elsewhere in Ethiopia. These include the nile lechwe and white-eared kob. The banks of the baro are rich in birdlife and thus give visitors an extra advantage.",

        "title": "Recommendations to Reduce Firearm Injury, Death, and Disability Released by ACS Workgroup",
        "raw_content": "American College of Surgeons Media Press Releases 2018 Press Releases Recommendations to Reduce Firearm Injury, Death, and Disability Released by ACS Workgroup\nNew Consensus-Based Recommendations to Reduce Firearm Injury, Death, and Disability Released by American College of Surgeons Workgroup\nPublic safety recommendations developed by trauma surgeons and firearm owners to make firearm ownership safer for all Americans.\nCHICAGO (November 14, 2018): Today the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma (ACS COT) released its initial set of recommendations from its Firearm Strategy Team (FAST) Workgroup to move a path forward to the development of an effective and durable strategy for reducing firearm injury, death, and disability in the United States. The recommendations are published online as an \u201carticle in press\u201d on the Journal of the American College of Surgeons website ahead of print publication.\nThe article presents 13 recommendations from a workgroup of 22 surgeons (median experience of 28 years caring for trauma patients), 18 of whom are passionate firearm owners themselves representing a broad range of experience with firearm ownership and use. Hunters, sport shooters, self-defense proponents, law enforcement professionals, and surgeons with previous military experience from a geographically representative sample across the country comprised the Workgroup, along with four surgeon leaders from the ACS COT and the ACS Board of Regents.\nThese recommendations are put forth in an advisory capacity and include, \u201cstrategies and tactics to increase firearm safety, reduce the probability of mass shootings, reduce firearm-associated violence, address mental health factors, and encourage federally funded firearm injury research while preserving the right to own and use a firearm.\u201d\n\u201cWe hope this carefully developed report provides a framework for discussing policy issues related to firearm violence, which has become a public health crisis in the U.S. These injury prevention recommendations may also open up a wider dialog with others who share our similar interest in addressing firearm violence as a public health problem,\u201d said ACS Executive Director David B. Hoyt, MD, FACS.\n\u201cPreventable injury, disability, and death from intentional violence related to firearms is unquestionably a major public health problem in the U.S.,\u201d said author Ronald M. Stewart, MD, FACS, Medical Director, ACS Trauma Programs, and professor and chair of surgery at University of Texas (UT) Health Science Center, San Antonio. \u201cWe set out to address the issue by employing a broadly inclusive consensus strategy within the Committee on Trauma. We took all viewpoints into account and working within the FAST Workgroup, engaged surgeons who are experienced firearm owners.\u201d\nConsensus was reached through a variety of interactions, including multiple surveys among surgeons, internal town hall meetings, focus groups, conference calls, and numerous small group meetings across the country, which led to an ongoing dialog in which \u201cwe came to realize that the community of firearm owners are often approached as part of the problem, but less commonly approached as part of the solution,\u201d wrote the article\u2019s authors. The ACS COT and other physician groups have called for a public health approach to the problem, viewing community engagement for interventions as a key step toward a solution that will move the nation toward more responsible ownership and use of firearms.\n\u201cWe are optimistic these consensus recommendations will resonate at the community level because they were developed by experienced firearm owners. These firearm owners are also expert trauma surgeons who have cared for thousands of patients with firearm injuries throughout their careers,\u201d said coauthor Deborah A. Kuhls, MD, FACS, professor of surgery and chief, section of critical care, division of acute care surgery, University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) School of Medicine.\n\u201cTo date, these recommendations appear to be the most unique approach to firearms safety in that firearm owners are standing up and taking responsibility and accountability for the privilege of owning a firearm in the U.S.,\u201d said coauthor Gary Timmerman, MD, FACS, professor and chair, department of surgery, Sanford School of Medicine, University of South Dakota, Sioux Falls. \u201cMoreover, as trauma surgeons who have treated firearm violence victims with devastating injuries, we feel we have a legitimate voice in preventing firearm violence.\u201d\n\u201cThese recommendations reflect practical solutions to minimize death and disability from firearm injury,\u201d said coauthor Eileen M. Bulger, MD, FACS, Chair of the ACS Committee on Trauma and chief of trauma at Harborview Medical Center, Seattle. \u201cIn developing our recommendations, we also considered the value of better enforcement of existing laws and strengthening current statutes and regulations, many of which are viable ways to keep firearms away from people who endanger themselves or others. Both those who support firearm ownership and those who do not need to come together to address this public health crisis, and these recommendations provide a platform to do just that.\u201d\nAll 22 surgeons in the FAST Workgroup needed to agree on a recommendation before it could be included in the final article. The Workgroup acknowledges that it does not represent the views of all firearm owners, or all surgeons for that matter, but it does put forth that these recommendations \u201cwill increase public safety and improve our understanding of firearm injury in the United States.\u201d\nAuthors and members of the FAST Workgroup are Cynthia L.

Obama made two visits to the Southeast Asian country in his eight years, but none while Duterte was in charge.\nHowever, contrary to Trump\u2019s account, Obama never had a flight to the Philippines diverted at the last-minute.\nHere\u2019s what happened: On the day before a scheduled meeting between the two leaders at a regional summit in Laos, Duterte called Obama a \u201cson of a bitch\u201d and warned the U.S. president not to challenge him over the extrajudicial killings. Obama responded by saying he did not want to attend a meeting if it wasn\u2019t productive \u2014 and then he canceled it.\nTrump\u2019s version: \u201cYou know what happened. Many of you were there, and you never got to land. The plane came close but it didn\u2019t land.\u201d That\u2019s not true. Obama\u2019s plane did land in Laos \u2014 where the meeting was supposed to be held. There was no scheduled plane trip to the Philippines and no mid-air drama.\nOur article on Trump\u2019s false claim about Obama\u2019s plane and all of our fact-checking videos with CNN\u2019s \u201cState of the Union\u201d can be found on our website.\nPrevious StoryFactChecking Trump\u2019s Business Boasts\nNext StoryThe Democrats\u2019 Inaccurate Talking Point",

        "title": "Economist says still plenty of room for growth in walnut industry | Farm Progress",
        "raw_content": "University of California-Davis agricultural economist Daniel Sumner is pictured before speaking at a workshop last summer. His Agricultural Issues Center has published a new California walnut startup cost analysis.\nWhile all farming operations offer a great deal of risk, growing and marketing nut varieties has more than a fair share of success stories.\nLogan Hawkes | Jan 16, 2019\nIn spite of the many challenges associated with starting a new agricultural operation, farming opportunities in the western United States remain popular among investors and entrepreneurs. This is especially so for individuals and partnerships considering establishing a nut production operation in California.\nWater issues, land availability, the number of years required before a nut orchard produces a profitable crop, weather and environmental complications, and a host of other issues that make new startup nut operations challenging seem to offer little drawback to many investors and venture capitalists hoping to cash in on the growing popularity and profitability of a successful nut farming business.\nIndeed, as noted by Western farm groups, there are few specialty crop successes that can match those being written by California\u2019s nut producers. While all farming operations offer a great deal of risk, growing and marketing almonds, walnuts, pistachios, and other nut varieties has more than a fair share of success stories, and interest in establishing new nut operations continues to run high.\nIndustry analysts point out that since 2006, almond production has more than doubled, and market prices have continued to rise. The California Pistachio Research Board has said it believes demand will continue to outpace production in the foreseeable future, and three years ago a walnut industry spokesman said all three of California\u2019s leading nut varieties (almond, walnut, and pistachio) were facing a positive outlook in the coming years.\nSTUDY EXPLORES INVESTMENTS\nIn response to the high and growing interest in new nut operation startups in California, University of California Cooperative Extension\u2019s Agricultural Issues Center released a new study in November, \u201cSample Costs to Establish and Produce English Walnuts,\u201d that explores the investment required for a new walnut startup operation in the Sacramento Valley.\n\u201cCalifornia is now up to a little more than 1.5 million acres of almonds, walnuts, and pistachios, and though it has been a rather tough year, with trade complications like tariffs, there remains a great deal of interest in new tree nut operations,\u201d says Dr. Daniel Sumner, director of the UC Agricultural Issues Center at UC-Davis.\n\u201cFor the last 10 years or so, those involved in the state\u2019s tree nut industry would say there isn\u2019t any more suitable land to increase nut operations, but just like a lot of cotton acres are now planted in nut orchards, the state\u2019s dairy industry is struggling and we\u2019re seeing some of those acres converted to tree nuts. We\u2019re also seeing land that was considered unsuited to tree nuts now being planted with orchards.\u201d\nSumner says the move to develop more tree nut operations on marginal lands has been tempered somewhat in recent years as a result of California\u2019s water issues. Though the rapid expansion of nut acres has slowed in recent times, he says there is still a great deal of interest in converting acres once reserved for growing high quality alfalfa in support of the dairy industry to new nut operations, often by established almond, walnut, or pistachio producers wanting to add other types of nuts to their operations.\nThis may be an area of interest that will support the continued growth of the tree nut industry in the years ahead as productive land becomes available and better technologies are developed that allow for less water use.\nExperienced orchard operators are more aware of the investment required to establish new orchards and the time it takes for that orchard to begin offering a return on investment. For that reason, orchard expansion in California favors those who are experienced in tree nut farming and are equipped to weather the time needed to establish a productive orchard.\nAccording to the new study, the actual cost of establishing an acre of walnuts will vary according to a number of factors, not the least of which would be water issues and availability related to the target land where the orchard is to be established.\nOther variable costs for such things as local labor, costs of weed, pest, and disease control, site preparation, fertilization and irrigation, are all subject to variance depending on the location and condition of the land selected.\n\u201cI don\u2019t think we will see the same boom the tree nut industry experienced a few years back, because of land availability and current problems associated with trade,\u201d Sumner says. \u201cCalifornia\u2019s nut producers rely on exports that support their operations, and as long as there are roadblocks to trade and increasing tariffs, that serves to stunt orchard expansion to some degree.\u201d.\nBut he says, he doesn\u2019t believe it will stop investors from looking at the possibility of acquiring suitable lands as they become available, whether they develop those acres immediately or wait for trade solutions to fix export problems like those that developed late in 2018.\nThe 2018 Sample Costs to Establish and Produce English Walnuts study is now available online for review at https://bit.ly/2RmJtKf",

The winner will be announced at this December\u2019s LA Auto Show. The contenders are the Audi A3 TDI, the Honda Insight, the Mercury Milan Hybrid, the Toyota Prius, and the Volkswagen Golf TDI. I already know which car I\u2019ll be rooting for.\nThe finalists reflect the diversity of energy-efficient cars on the market\u2013the sporty, clean diesel Audi, the diesel Volkswagen, Honda\u2019s first hybrid sedan, the third-generation Prius, and Mercury\u2019s upscale, mid-sized sedan (the only American car on the list). But despite the numerous clean energy vehicles that have popped up in the Prius\u2019 wake, I\u2019m still hoping that Toyota\u2019s classic hybrid will take the prize for one simple reason: It\u2019s the most fuel-efficient car on the market, with the 2010 model clocking in at 51 mpg for city driving and 48 mpg on the highway. The car also has an ultra-reasonable base price of $21,000, so there should be little dispute over whether it tops the GCJ\u2019s list.\nStill, the Prius isn\u2019t a shoo-in. The Volkwagen Jetta TDI took last year\u2019s prize, and previous winners include the Chevy Tahoe Hybrid, the Toyota Camry Hybrid, and the Mercury Mariner Hybrid. The GCJ may be skipping over Toyota\u2019s hybrid crown jewel to highlight green alternatives, but if it really wants to pick the green car of the year it should stick with the Prius.",

        "raw_content": "Could This One App Take The Headache Out Of International Air Travel?\nAn E.U.-sponsored concept for an app would aggregate flight information, tickets, routes through the airport, and public transit instructions.\nInternational air travel is a stressful experience. The signage is in a different language. You can\u2019t find your connecting gate. You aren\u2019t quite sure how to navigate public transportation to get from the airport to your hotel.\nEdenspiekermann, a design agency founded by typographer Erik Spiekermann, (and the brains behind this clever train signage system) has spent three years thinking about how to ease the many confusions of traveling through Europe. Sponsored by a European Union research initiative, Edenspiekermann developed a concept for an app that would hold your hand throughout an entire trip\u2013from flight updates to directions to your next gate during a layover to public transportation and hotel information once you arrive.\nThis one app would do the work of 11 apps.\n\u201cIf you go from Tokyo to Frankfurt, and then you transfer to Amsterdam, you need about 11 apps to cater this experience,\u201d says Sophie Dobber, a service designer in Edenspiekermann\u2019s Amsterdam office. \u201cThere are so many different ones that it\u2019s impossible.\u201d\nThe concept, called the Info Connectivity System, would be \u201ca one-stop shop that provides passengers with all the right travel information in the right context and the right language,\u201d she tells Co.Design. It\u2019s designed to be available on smartphones, portals within the airport, and seat-back screens on the plane. It would have all the information you need to navigate a particular airport\u2013guiding you through luggage regulations, how to get wheelchair assistance, where toilets and food can be found, where your gate is. The app would always be on hand to tell you how much time you have left to get to your gate, and how far you have to walk to get there. No more arriving at your gate only to find yourself with time to kill and no food in sight.\nSound complicated? It is.\nAfter you reach your final destination, step-by-step public transportation instructions (including how to buy a ticket) help you find your way out of the airport. The app could even send an update to friends or family that you were on your way to the hotel.\nSound complicated? It is. Edenspiekermann is still figuring out who would potentially build and own this app, and whether it would even be possible to collect all the necessary data from airport operators, transit providers, and companies.\nLogistics aside, it\u2019s an enticing idea. Your smartphone could answer every question you could possibly have about your trip, eliminating the clutching fear of being lost in a foreign airport. Could this be the One App to rule travel?",

        "raw_content": "The story behind that photo of a 2-year-old throwing a tantrum in front of Obama\nLaura Moser had no idea that her two-year-old daughter, Claudia, would become an Internet sensation when they visited the White House last year for a Passover seder. Not even after President Obama walked in the room and Claudia threw herself down on the floor and had a tantrum. What happened to upset the little girl so much?\nMoser recently described the experience to the Guardian:\nIt was just before the president walked in the room that I had to tell Claudia, my two-year-old daughter, \u201cNo, you cannot take your clothes off.\u201d She wanted to wear a sheet, which is what she likes to do at home. She started screaming. As he walked in we said: \u201cLook, Claudia, it\u2019s Barack Obama.\u201d That\u2019s when she threw herself on the floor.\nSoon after, Moser posted the photo on Facebook, her brother ended up tweeting it, and it went viral.

So on one level, naming the store after his first sailboat serves not only as a reminder of all the happy family memories I experienced on the boat, but also a tribute to my dad and the profound influence he had on my life. Truth be told, it was my dad who instilled in me, among other fine qualities, a deep affection for ice cream. In fact, one could easily say that my dad turned scooping and eating ice cream into an art form \u2013 if you think I\u2019m exaggerating, just ask my siblings.\nBut that\u2019s only half of the story. One day, I decided to find out what this rather strange word, \u201cflapdoodle\u201d actually means. According to the dictionary the word means, \u201cfoolish talk, nonsense\u201d. Soon thereafter the idea was hatched to open up an ice cream store where customers could enjoy premium hand made ice cream in a fun and nonsensical environment. As I like to say, it\u2019s a place where the only thing that makes sense is the ice cream!",

        "raw_content": "Peanuts are native to South America and belong to the family of legumes, such as beans, peas or soybeans. They don\u2019t just taste great, they are rich in fat, protein and other healthy nutrients.\nPeanuts are a good source of protein and they also have a high content of essential vitamins, minerals and herbal compounds.The benefits of peanuts are different, so they should be added to the list of daily nutrition. However, due to the high content of fat and calories that the peanuts have, you should not be exaggerating.\nThese 12 properties of peanuts have a lot of benefits \u2013 from health to beauty.\nIt is good for heart health\nAmong the benefits for human health, it seems to be the most popular. Thanks to the high level of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, peanuts can maintain a human heart healthy.\nSpecifically, oleic acid in peanuts can reduce the bad cholesterol (LDL) and increase good cholesterol (HDL). Therefore, the peanuts are in a position to prevent stroke and coronary heart disease by increasing healthy blood lipid.\nOne of the most recognisable advantages of peanuts is to boost energy. This is quite understandable, because peanuts contain a lot of vitamins and minerals, antioxidants and nutrients, which are a major source of energy.\nPeanuts have been studied in terms of weight maintenance. Because there are a lot of calories and fat, peanuts do not affect the growth of kilos, so therefore consumption of legumes will help maintain the vitality and prevent obesity.\nPolyphenolic antioxidants which are present in peanuts are useful for the prevention of gastric cancer, and they help in reducing the production of carcinogenic nitrosamines.\nOn the other hand, legumes such as peanut have a high content of beta sitosterol, which can be a protection against cancer by natural inhibitor of tumor growth. So all those who eat peanuts at least twice a week can reduce the risk of colon cancer by 2.758 percent.\nIt is estimated that gallstones affects between 10 and 25 percent of adults worldwide. Frequent consumption of peanuts can significantly reduce the risk of gallstones. According to studies, only 30 grams of peanuts a day can help to reduce the risk of this phenomenon by 25 percent.\nPeanuts are often called \u201cbrain food\u201d because they contain the vitamin B3, which is excellent for brain function, and to improve memory. They also contain a flavonoids or a substance called resveratrol, which can improve the blood flow to the brain by about 30 percent.\nFight against depression\nSerotonin is a chemical that is important for brain and that helps regulate the mood. Inadequate secretion of these chemicals results to depression. Fortunately, the amino acid tryptophan in peanuts may help release serotonin, which is why peanuts are able to beat depression.\nSupports pregnancy and protects the baby\nPeanuts are considered as a good source of folic acid, which is important for women during pregnancy . If you\u2019re pregnant or might become pregnant, it\u2019s critically important to get enough folic acid, the synthetic form of vitamin B9, also known as folate.\nTo reduce your baby\u2019s risk of developing a neural tube defect, experts recommend that you take 400 micrograms (mcg) of folic acid a day, beginning at least a month before you start trying to get pregnant. Of course, before you use the supplements, first consult your doctor.\nMany studies have shown that eating foods that are rich in niacin such as peanuts, can reduce the risk of Alzheimer by about 70 percent. Only a quarter cup of peanuts represents a quarter of the daily intake of niacin.\nMakes the skin radiant and toned\nThe ingredients in peanuts keep skin shiny and bright. In addition, dietary fiber in this plant helps the body to get rid of excess toxins, making the skin becomes perfectly soft and shiny. On the other hand, peanuts with their content of magnesium can help to calm the nerves, blood vessels and muscles in order to speed up the flow of blood to the skin.\nAmong the benefits that peanuts have for our beauty, they also can prevent hair loss. Thanks to vitamin C which is useful for increasing the production of collagen, peanuts can prevent hair loss. Also, l-arginin in peanuts is an ingredient used in many baldness treatment, while the omega 3 fatty acid can strengthen the overall hair follicles and help hair growth.\nIt prevents wrinkles and aging\nEarly signs of aging, such as discoloration, wrinkles and reduced elasticity of the skin, fall into one of the largest cosmetic concern. Fortunately, peanuts have a significant amount of vitamin C which is essential for the production of collagen. In fact, collagen is important to maintain healthy tendons, cartilage and skin. So, consumption of peanuts improves the skins firmness, elasticity and freshness.",

        "raw_content": "Groupon Said To Spawn More Than 180 Clones In U.S. Already\nThe swift rise of deal-of-the-day website Groupon is already familiar to savvy shoppers, tech\nForbes' Aug. 2010 Groupon cover\nindustry watchers and Forbes readers. But did you know that Groupon\u2019s success has already brought forth more than 180 copycats in the U.S. alone?\nThat\u2019s the count from New York-based deal aggregator website 8coupons.com, which began tracking \u201cdaily deal\u201d startups in mid February. Its comprehensive list ranks 160 such companies, ranging from well-known Groupon competitors like LivingSocial.com and BuyWithMe.com to more recent entrants and niche players like GaggleOfChicks.com and Mamapedia.com.\nThe data points up some interesting trends regarding timing, market saturation and focus in the daily deal market. While this business clearly has a long tail, newer entrants appear to be having trouble coming up with regular deals to offer. The great majority of the companies on 8coupons' list\u2014117 total\u2014have offered fewer than 200 deals so far. More than half (92 companies) have provided fewer than 100 deals. In fact, only 15 companies on the list (including Groupon) have offered more than 500 and only four (again, including Groupon) have offered more than 1,000.\nIn some cases, this is because the companies are new. Twenty of the 160 on the list began offering deals in October and 46 of them got started within the past three months. Excluding February, which was the first month that 8coupons recorded data, March and October were the most popular months in 2010 to launch a Groupon clone.\nIn addition, some of the startups, such as BostonBargains.net, ChiTownDeals.com and PhillyBurbs.com, are standalone local sites and thus naturally much smaller than Groupon, which is a hub of smaller, local sites. Indeed, super-local sites abound in the daily deals market. At least 15 companies on the 8coupons list seem to fall into this category.\nEven for these new, deliberately small sites, a paucity of deals is a red flag, however. A daily deals service, by definition, needs to provide a regular stream of offers. Stepping out of rhythm could turn off consumers, who may then flock to another site or give up on the daily deal concept altogether.\nA shakeout hasn\u2019t happened yet. For now, the boom is a boon for 8coupons, which, as an aggregator, gains relevancy each time a new deal site is launched. Indeed, on its blog, the company praises collective buying as the \u201cmost innovative form of advertising to hit the industry since Google Ads.\u201d\nThe continued buzz around daily deals may encourage even more entrepreneurs to jump in. Groupon, which is expanding to 300 cities by year\u2019s end, is reportedly seeking venture funding that would value the company at as much as $3 billion. Washington, DC-based LivingSocial recently acquired a similar site in Australia and says it has 10 million subscribers across more than 100 markets globally.\nEstablished media companies are getting in the game now, too. Earlier this week, Yahoo announced it would partner with Groupon and LivingSocial to test a locally-focused coupons and discounts service called Local Offers.",

        "title": "WOODLEY PARK, WASHINGTON DC PORCH ADDITION - Four Brothers LLC",
        "raw_content": "Prev. Project WOODLEY PARK, WASHINGTON DC PORCH ADDITION Next Project\nWashington DC Addition \u2013 Screen Porch\nProject Overview: When these homeowners called us out to their home for an initial consultation, they were crystal clear as to what they wanted. Their home is strategically located on a relatively steep hill in Washington, DC\u2019s Woodley Park neighborhood. Off the back of their living room was a patio that presented a fantastic view out over their large triangular yard and the surrounding neighborhood. It was one of their favorite places to relax during the Spring, Summer and Fall months, but the thriving mosquito population was a an irritating deterrent. They wanted a three-seasons porch that would allow them to enjoy their back yard more frequently.\nDesign and Layout: The homeowners were veteran remodelers, and played an active role in the design process. They were clear about their style \u2013 modern/contemporary \u2013 and wanted their porch to make a statement. Our in-house architect who led this project is somewhat of a Frank Lloyd Wright disciple, and took much of his inspiration from Wrights Pope-Leighey house in Alexandria, VA. The new porch sits directly off of the client\u2019s main living space and with the inclusion of French out-swing doors becomes an enlarged extension of the living area. The design is such that predominance is given to the desired view of the triangular yard below, with the constrained view situated to the neighbor\u2019s yard roughly 30 feet up the hill. The split roof adds to the overall design scheme, providing tall, open sightlines, and a smaller more intimate space \u2013 all within the same floor plan. The staggered roof height also solves a practical concern in not blocking any of the windows at the rear fa\u00e7ade. The smaller portion of the porch has slatted trim that extends to the roof line to create a screen effect, with built-in storage benches and a table in a bumped-out corner.\nStyle and Finishes: Our designer\u2019s intention was to create interconnectedness between the built and un-built environment. The homeowners set the color scheme early on, choosing a field grey as the base and highlights of his and her favorite colors; blue and yellow. Exterior finishes are limited to painted Hardie Panel and 1x2 Azek trim and the interior surfaces are wrapped with the same materials. A \u201cshow wall\u201d was created by installing unfinished, reclaimed barn siding at the exterior of the existing house and at the main structural beam. The horizontal lines are maintained at the show wall, as the accent wood is installed to align with the trim banding that wraps the rest of the structure. The floor tile is a 24\u201d x 24\u201d field tile, installed in a diagonal pattern.\nConstruction and Final Product: This was a challenging project to build for a number of reasons; the first being the location of the porch in relation to the sloping yard. The depth of the new foundation footings had to match those in the basement, which were 15\u2019 below grade level. Since it was not possible to bring a machine into the landscaped yard, all ground work had to be dug by hand, and concrete hauled in with wheel barrows and buckets. During foundation work, a flash-flood one Friday evening caused an adjoining garage to flood (through a hole in the foundation wall) which led to an unplanned Saturday clean-up for our crew. Once the floor slab was poured, framing and roofing went quickly. Trim and finishes were a different story. The design was complex and called for horizontal lines throughout to match exactly. This is detailed work, which stretched out somewhat longer than we had anticipated. The polished concrete floor that was specified in the original design was ruined by a faulty blade in the finishing machine, and our attempts to grind out the defects proved unsuccessful. We presented a number of alternative floor options to the homeowner, and finally settled on the off-white field tile. This delayed the project again, but we updated the homeowner regularly with our revised schedule. Despite these few setbacks, the final product is stunning, and the homeowners could not be happier with their new porch.\nWhat the Customer Said: \u201cWe highly recommend Four Brothers who built our screened in porch. It is not an ordinary porch but thanks to the design and craftsmanship, it is a unique addition to our home. The space is practical for our family while also shows great style. From the reclaimed barn wood on the walls to the beamed ceilings and the built-in benches- we love our new outdoor room. In addition to demonstrating great craftsmanship, the company upholds the highest integrity. Over the course of the project, all of the employees were hardworking, honest and committed to the final product. The project was well organized and the company was receptive to feedback and demonstrated flexibility. Four Brothers took steps beyond the usual expectations to ensure that the final product looked just right\u2014from the porch door, to the floors to the top notch paint job. We have worked with many companies over our years as homeowners and Four Brothers is by far the best. We look forward to our next opportunity to hire Four Brothers for another project.\u201d",

I think it's important, we think it's important that they continue to work. There's a lot that still needs to be done,\" said John Zimmerman, communications executive for the Chamber of Commerce.\nThe changes to the paid sick and minimum wage proposals were passed by the Republican-controlled Senate last week.\nWe will let you know when the House votes.",

        "raw_content": "Pokes take aim at 14th-ranked Lobos\nAlbuquerque, NM \u2013 The top team in the Mountain West Conference tries to move even closer to the regular season title, as the 14th- ranked New Mexico Lobos entertain the Wyoming Cowboys on Saturday afternoon in their final home game of the campaign.\nWith their 70-60 win over the San Diego State Aztecs three nights ago also in The Pit, the Lobos have now taken four straight and seven of the last eight outings overall. With a mark of 11-2 in conference, UNM is two games up on second-place Colorado State with a total of three games remaining in the regular season.\nAs for the Cowboys, this is a team that showed so much promise over the first seven weeks by opening 2012-13 with a 13-game win streak. However, since then the team has put up a 5-10 mark and is just 4-10 in league action following a 72-66 loss to Air Force on Tuesday night. The setback was the third in a row for the Pokes.\nIn a series that began back in 1950, the Cowboys are ahead by a slim 64-62 margin, although UNM has won four straight and six of the last seven encounters, and that includes a 63-59 final in the first meeting of the season at Arena Auditorium in Laramie at the end of January.\nWyoming led by as many as seven in the first half against Air Force earlier this week, but the visitors then made just nine field goals after the break, allowing the host Falcons to pull away at Clune Arena. Nathan Sobey scored a team-best 22 points off the bench for the Pokes, shooting a perfect 6-of-6 behind the 3-point line, while Riley Grabau tacked on 12 points and five assists. Leonard Washington, who had missed the two previous games with an ankle injury, returned to register a double-double with 15 points and 13 rebounds.\nWashington, who is playing close to 35 minutes per game, leads the group in scoring with his 13.6 ppg and is also first with 10.0 rpg in conference play, although he would certainly benefit from staying close to the paint and not attempting too many shots beyond the arc (5-of-40) and also putting in a bit more practice at the free-throw line (.533). Derrious Gilmore contributes another 12.4 ppg, thanks to his 31 triples in 14 league bouts, but still this is a program shooting only 29.5 percent on the outside.\nIn a game that featured five ties and six lead changes, it was the defense for the Lobos that made the most difference against visiting San Diego State as it held the Aztecs to just 4-of-23 shooting beyond the arc and 36.2 percent from the floor overall. Alex Kirk took the lead on offense for UNM with a game-high 25 points, hitting all three of his 3-point tries, while also clearing seven rebounds and blocking three shots. Before fouling out Cameron Bairstow accounted for 16 points and five boards, followed by Tony Snell with 10 points.\nFour days after scoring 46 points, shooting 10-of-13 beyond the arc versus Colorado State, Kendall Williams missed all four of his long-distance tries and was just 1-of-6 from the floor as he tallied eight points versus SDSU. Despite the light effort, Williams continues to lead the team in scoring against MWC opponents with his 13.3 ppg, his 58 assists in his 12 league contests also playing a huge role in putting the team in the win column. Kirk (12,6 ppg, 8.5 rpg) and Snell (11.9 ppg) are also key figures at the offensive end of the floor.",

It was an imposed death.\"\n\"When you deprive somebody of food and water, what else is it? Nothing else but murder,\" Martino said, adding that he was speaking on the case \"according to the teaching of the pope.\" The pontiff has spoken on behalf of providing food and water, even through artificial means, to patients like Schiavo.\nPope John Paul II (search) was informed of Schiavo&apos;s death, Martino said. The cardinal likened the pope&apos;s frail health, including resorting to a feeding tube, to Schiavo&apos;s case.\nThe \"comparison is easy,\" Martino said. \"Everybody will do all the best to keep him alive, to feed him the way it can be done.\"\nBefore the Vatican statement Thursday, the Holy See had left comment in the hands of Martino, who heads the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, and other prominent church officials.\n\"One hopes that from this dramatic experience there matures in public opinion a greater awareness of human dignity, and that it brings greater protection for life even at the legal level,\" Navarro-Valls said Thursday.\nSpeaking of Schiavo, another leading Vatican official, Portuguese Cardinal Jose Saraiva Martins, said \"an attack against life is an attack against God, who is the author of life.\"\nThe cardinal said John Paul \"teaches us not only with his suffering, but also with his teaching the great respect for life. Life is the most precious thing we have.\"\nMartino, asked who should be held responsible for Schiavo&apos;s death, replied: \"the judges, her husband, whoever denied access\" to feeding. The cardinal had previously appealed for Schiavo to remain on the feeding tube, which was removed by court order March 18.\nSchiavo suffered severe brain damage 15 years ago. Her husband said Schiavo told him she would not want to be kept alive in a vegetative state, and insisted he was carrying out her wishes by having the tube pulled. Her parents opposed its removal.",

The Sulphur Ranger District is over 442,000 acres in Grand County. Being surrounded by mountain peaks, meadows and lakes, you are in for a truly majestic experience in this forest.\nSummers are filled with mountain biking near the towns of Winter Park and Fraser, hiking or backpacking in one of the five wilderness areas or in the Arapaho National Recreation Area (ANRA), and enjoying the wildflowers and wildlife. Many of the hiking trails are also open to equestrians. The Three Lakes of Grand, Granby and Shadow Mountain are great places to escape with your boat or a fishing pole for a day. The Stillwater area next to the town of Grand Lake has miles of trails for off-highway vehicle (OHV) enthusiasts. Camping cannot be overlooked either with 15 campgrounds and nearly 500 campsites.\nOnce summer has ended, the aspens changing colors signal the change of season and a move to fall activities. Come and spend a few days driving through the forest taking in the vibrant colors of the aspens. Hiking, biking, camping and OHV activities begin to dwindle and become replaced by hunters before the snow and winter activities arrive. Grand Lake is called the \"snowmobile capital of Colorado\" and is consistently ranked in the top 20 of best places to snowmobile in the United States. Along with the miles of snowmobile trails, the forest is available for tranquil snowshoe and cross-country ski excursions in this winter wonderland. Ice fishing contests, besides being a lot of fun, offers the participant an opportunity to win some great prizes.\nFor more information on recreation opportunities on the Sulphur Ranger District see our District recreation page.\nMountain Pine Beetle: Provides information about the district's on-going bark beetle projects including trail and road closures and alternative routes.\nhttps://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/arp/about-forest/?cid=fsm91_058269",

        "raw_content": "Exchange programs in the fields of science and education offer people the opportunity to experience the culture and society of another country. The Fulbright Center in Finland does unique work in this respect. In addition to its academic merits the Fulbright program helps to create lasting networks and sustained cooperation in these fields.\nThe Fulbright program has been an integral part of the relations between Finland and the United States already over 60 years. The success of the Finnish basic education system in the international PISA tests has created a strong interest in the United States. This interest we also see in the Fulbright Program. American policy makers and experts are now looking closely at this outstanding Finnish expertise area.\nTeachers and other specialists of education travel regularly from the United States to Finland to find out how our schools function. They visit different schools, talk to officials and sometimes even enjoy a free school meal with the students and teachers. In addition, school groups or groups of teachers, principals and teachers-unions visit the Embassy and Consulate Generals every week to learn what makes Finland so successful when it comes to education.\nFinnish Lessons: What Can the World Learn from Educational Change in Finland?, a recent book by Dr. Pasi Sahlberg, has been a hit in the United States and we have been handing out thousands of copies of it to share best practices and to start up an inspiring dialogue. The American interest has extended to our universities and higher education as well, and there is plenty of room for further development. Hopefully this interest will turn into an even stronger long-term research cooperation and student exchange programs.\nFinland is known not only for its world-class education system, but also for its innovation, high technology and cultural achievements. To further promote long-term cooperation between Finland and the United States, we have recently launched the Team Finland USA partnership. The idea of this nationwide network is to promote Finland\u2019s external economic relations and country brand, the internationalization of Finnish companies, as well as foreign investment in Finland.\nThe Fulbright alumni in the U.S. are a very valuable group of experts who know Finland well. To enhance the Finnish-American relations it is very important to get the Fulbright alumni involved in the Team Finland activities. I am confident that there is a lot of potential interest and untapped energy when it comes to engaging the alumni in various fields of cooperation. I welcome you to contact the Embassy or the Finnish Consulate Generals in the United States with any ideas to further develop the alumni cooperation. I am confident that our two countries have a lot to learn from each other in the ways we want to enhance and deepen our relations further.",

        "title": "Advice For Aspiring Indie Game Developers - Career Development - GameDev.net",
        "raw_content": "(-1 reviews)\nPosted By x4000\nThis is a question I'm getting asked with increasing regularity: what advice do I have for other indie developers, or aspiring indie developers? Here are some observations I've had from developing, releasing, updating, and promoting AI War. In many cases I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions based on these observations, but at the very least it will provide first-hand data you did not have before. Bear in mind that the landscape has changed dramatically since I originally developed many of these ideas; the rise of the indie was only just starting in 2009, and I randomly happened to be traveling right along with that wave without realizing it. Lucky timing on my part. Most of this advice still stands however, which is why I chose to share it. Not only has the market changed, but my position as an indie developer has, too. AI War has gone on to make over a million dollars in gross sales (and still steadily growing each year), which in 2009 would have made it a clear and unmitigated indie darling. Instead it's what I would call a \"cult classic,\" and there are now tons of such games that you've never heard of. The market has grown substantially, and the Primacy of the Niche cannot be understated for most indies. You still get the standouts like Minecraft or Monaco or Limbo or Journey that larger-than-average audiences have heard of, naturally. But I'd say that the old \"indie darling\" field of about 1-5 per year has grown to 10-40 per year, and then there is this huge \"very profitable niche game\" market that likely sees as many as 1,000 games per year at this point (counting mobile). Remember, the mobile \"app store\" revolution hadn't even begun yet at that point in 2009, and that changed everything for a whole lot of indies, too. It's hard even to quantify the size (in terms of number of games, or total earnings, or average earning for game in any given category) for indie games at this point. Apple and Steam have the lion's share of that data, but even their data is very incomplete. There's no sort of global way to categorize sales rankings at the moment. The One Ultra-Secret Surefire Path to Indie Success I don't think there's any one path to success -- now more than ever. There are indies doing all sorts of crazy things all over the place, and the market actually supports that! It's amazing. There is no better time to be an indie, in terms of the opportunities out there. Most people have at least heard of the indie movement, and there's a huge following of it in general that is hungry for the new and the interesting. And even those who are not interested in the concept of \"indie games\" for its own sake are often interested in specific genre niches: wargamers, for instance, want good wargames whatever the source. Simulation game fans are hungry for more simulation games, and the AAA studios are not forthcoming. So where do they go? Indies, naturally. The main advice I have is for people to follow their own passions and to find the communities that share those passions. If you're passionate about something, odds are that a lot of other people are too -- the world, and the Internet, is a big place. You may never meet another person in casual real life who shares your passion, but that doesn't mean there aren't hundreds of thousands of people in the world who share your passion. If you can find those people, there's your market. Build something that you delight in and that they will also delight in. Then let them know it exists, in a way that isn't scummy or cloying. Then see if there might be an even wider market, and if you might be able to get on some of the bigger distributors. Or check out something like Kickstarter if you need funding in advance for art or whatever. But have a great prototype before that point, and be prepared for the repercussions of suddenly having lots of backers with very specific expectations that you will likely not be able to fully meet. When something does not yet exist, people form very different ideas of what will come to exist in the future based on what is described. Words are imprecise, and visions shift subtly (or not so subtly) anyhow. You don't need funding to have a great idea. Nor do you need funding to develop something in your off-hours as a hobby. If it's not worth it to a potential indie as a hobby, then probably game development isn't for them; game development is a lot of work, and if they don't love the process then the industry will chew them up pretty hard. There are plenty of examples of games with terrible or mediocre graphics that have gone on to sell really well anyhow because of the strength of their ideas. And with Kickstarter now being a thing, the graphics don't even have to be bad if you can convince enough people that your idea is awesome before you finish making it. It doesn't take a ten million dollar budget to make a game that is attractive -- whether or not you think my games are attractive, that's beside the point. There will always be people who disagree with a given aesthetic, and who are turned off by it. But with the right idea, it doesn't matter. There are innumerable Minecraft videos that start out with the sentiment \"The graphics are effing horrible, but check this out!\" Personally I think Minecraft has a great aesthetic and is really pleasing to look at, but obviously that's a matter of taste and not everyone agrees. Part of being an indie is accepting that universal appreciation is never coming your way. My other main takeaway remains the same: people are too quick to give up and concede defeat. I said that in August 2009 when I had managed a mere $30,000 or so in sales and was feeling pretty good about that after a very slow start. That was not bad at all for indie developers, and on Impulse (back when it was a bigger force), that was enough to net us the #4 to #2 slot on their top-sellers chart from time to time. This was pre-Steam for us. Then we hit Steam later that year, and it's just been growth ever since. I would never have predicted in 2009 that we'd ever reach a million dollars gross. But through ongoing updates and support and persistence, that's what happened. If I just threw my hands up in the first two weeks after release, when I literally had zero sales, that would have been not just my future career thrown away, but also the careers of everyone who works at Arcen now. The things you learn, eh? My Advice to Indie Developers\nMake what you want to make. You are your own first audience. If you don't think a game is fun, nobody else will either. If you don't want to play your own game, ask yourself why. Often that will spark ideas on how to fix some underlying problems you didn't even consciously realize you had.\nPrototype! Almost no game is fun at first, despite sounding great on paper. Prototyping lets you figure out what the sticking points are and address them, rather than just rushing something out the door that has all those original flaws.\nMake something original! If you're just making a clone of some other game, or a clear homage with some minor twists, expect to fail. Bigger studios will have better production values, and typically more polished execution, than a new indie studio. Where most of the top indies shine is in their creativity, if you think about it.\nDon't ignore PR and marketing. Those are \"bad words\" to a lot of people, but they don't have to be. All it means is telling people about your game, and sharing your passion for it. It does not mean spamming or astroturfing or doing other unethical things. But if you don't tell people about what you're doing, you will be ignored.\nWhen it comes to the press, often if your pitch for your game does not immediately grab them, it goes in the rubbish bin -- they get too many pitches as it is. So make sure you have a clear, concise, strong explanation for why your game is worth their time. If other review sites are saying awesome things about your game, feel free to mention that to the other outlets along with other news about things you are doing to make your game even better. Aka, \"here's our latest post-release patch with all sorts of awesome new stuff for free for players, and also look what site X had to say about us!\" Persistence pays off, but keep to the limits of being polite and respectful.\nThe following observations were written back when AI War was publicly available for only a few months but the advice still holds\nObservation: Getting Started Is Slow I've had a publicly-released game for only around three months now. That might sound like a long time, but if you're an indie developer with no prior connections and no \"easy ins,\" you're still just warming up. I think that a lot of indies think that their game will either live or die in that first month (I know I did), and I'm finding that this is patently untrue. If I had given up after that first month, I would literally have had around 50 sales total. That's still not bad for an indie game -- unfortunately, most sell extremely, extremely, poorly. However, if I had given up after that limited amount of time, or if I had stopped trying to get more publicity for the game, I'd have missed out on month two, which had around 8x as many sales as the first month. And each month since then has had even more sales than the last. So I guess there are a few takeaways from this. First, don't give up too quickly or let yourself get discouraged by early indifference to your product. Secondly, don't quit the day job unless you can afford to go months or more without pay, even after your game is released. Expect to put in some serious time even after your game is out. Observation: Every Indie Game Is Different There is no \"common path\" for successful indie games. There are perhaps a very few things they all have in common, but generally speaking they all entered the market differently, made a name for themselves in a different niche, and then got noticed by the wider gaming press. Some of them had an easier time of it than others. My Three Major Classes Of Indie Game Or, at least, this is how I think of it. Here they are: 1. Indie Darlings: These sell tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of copies. You've read about these in gaming magazines and on mainstream gaming sites. Everyone who follows gaming news has heard of the biggest of these, but even the smallest of these have quite a huge footprint. There are very few of these as compared to the other two categories. You know the big boys from this category: World of Goo, Braid, etc. A lot of these are also winners of the various major indie gaming contests, but not all of them are. 1.a. Indies With Publishers: This is a corollary to the indie darlings category, really. Some indie companies actually do form relationships with publishers and this leads to a massive amount more sales and a fair bit more press. Since the indie developer did not receive money up front from the publisher, and since the developer still has full creative control more or less, they are still considered indie, although it is borderline to some people. Examples: Locke's Quest, Supreme Commander. 2. Undiscovered Gems: This is a much larger category of indie games. Basically, these games are not failures, but neither are they remotely near the darling category. Most of these games sell a few hundred to a few thousand copies -- in a few cases maybe a couple of tens of thousands. They might get some spotty mainstream gaming press coverage, but not much (if any). They might have contest wins, but none of the really big ones. They do tend to have some coverage from the various indie-focused websites. Often these games have a really passionate, if small, fanbase. These are quality games, so if they are able to find any publicity at all they will find something of a fanbase, but without serious effort on publicity they will never be very successful (and depending on the game, it might be so niche or hardcore that it never finds a sustainable audience at all). 3. Hobbyist/Nonprofessional: This group is the largest by far, basically comprising anything that a person just slaps together in however much time. Generally there is not much discipline in creating these, nor a great sense of design. Some are really fun and worth playing, most are not. But! Most real game designers start out like this -- I created a large number of games I would consider in this category, although I never publicly released most of them. They were an invaluable learning experience, but if I had expected to make a business out of them that would have been laughable -- selling 100 or even 10 copies would be pretty ambitious and would mostly depend on how many friends you have. Why The Categories Matter Objectively determining what category you fall into out of the above is very important. If you're reading this blog looking for advice, you probably fall in or near the undiscovered gems category. If you're an indie darling, you know it, of course (I'm not, for the record). If you're in the hobbyist category you may not know it. But if you just can't get any sales no matter what you do, then you might have to realize that you are in that category. That's okay! Most of us started there. The realization is important because you need to realize that there is something your game is lacking. You need to either make your game better, or you need to make a new game based on what you now know after having created the first (the code architecture of first-games is often so bad that it's better to just start fresh... I know I did). Similarly, if you are in the undiscovered gems category you are also missing something -- either that \"indefinable something extra\" that makes the big games really stand out, or else publicity. Or both. Figuring out what you are missing and addressing it is the key to moving up, near as I can tell. So where is AI War right now? We're an undiscovered gem at present, but we're getting a lot more coverage recently, and that's been helping sales trend ever upwards. We've also got a potential publication deal in the works, which could really boost things even more. We'll see. Observation: You Need Distribution Partners To hear 2D Boy (the creators of indie darling World of Goo) tell it, all you need to do is put up a website, make a great game, and people will flock to your site. I have not observed anyone else who has seen this as a workable strategy. For AI War, in our first two weeks of doing exactly that, we had precisely zero sales. It wasn't until we got picked up for Stardock's Impulse platform that things really started kicking off. 2D Boy had an awful lot of publicity before putting up their website. So, instead, my advice is to pursue as many distribution partners as possible. Only the ones that give you a fair royalty rate (most of the time I get 70%), and those which are non-exclusive so that you can cast a wide net, but otherwise just go ahead and keep casting as wide a net as possible. The specific sites you will submit to also vary by genre. But having a website and an ecommerce partner there is also a good idea. Observation: Art Is Not As Important As Indie Developers Think Aspiring indie developers get really hung up on the art in their games. So much so, that many of them never really finish anything substantial. You can't expect an artist to work for you for free -- they're wise to the fact that most of the time the programmer/designer is going to flake out if this is their first project. So do what you can with the art that is freely available out there (there isn't much, but there is some), and otherwise just use placeholder art. If your game is awesome and fun, then you can better attract an artist or you will be better justified in investing in art yourself. Observation: Art Is Really Important It's just not as important as new indie developers think it is. You can't expect to have great art from the start unless you are lucky and know a great artist, or have large stacks of cash just sitting around. But you can still make a fun game that will attract something of an audience. Just be ready to either make a bigger, better, prettier sequel after that, or to upgrade the art on your first game. Depends on how big your first game is, and what the potential market for it is, and how bad your initial art really is. Art clearly matters in moving copies of indie games, but it's not the only deciding factor. You can sell pretty well with fairly poor art, you'll just sell better with better art (all else being equal). Observation: No One Cares About Your Game. Until They Do. Getting that first sale is brutal hard. You need a good demo, good marketing materials, a good sales pitch in general. You have to get someone pretty excited about your game to shell out for something they have never heard of before. If you can get some positive early reviews, that will also really help. Having a distribution partner will also help, if you can get one. You basically need a way to show potential customers that you are for real, that you build something worth paying for, and that they can trust you with their credit card or other personal information (this can be simply offering paypal as an option, or whatever other reputable ecommerce platform). Until you start getting some notice, no one is going to want to notice you. It's a very chicken-and-egg sort of situation. There are too many indie games out there, most in the hobbyist category, and especially if your art is not great people will usually assume that's the category you are in if they have never heard of you and their first contact is from you soliciting them. Eventually you will find some people who will take a chance on your game; if you impress them, then you can move up a few notches in exposure and find more people who will take a chance on it. If no one is impressed after taking a chance on it, then you're probably in the hobbyist category without knowing it. That's not the end of the world -- either make a new, better game and try again, or solicit feedback from your early chance-takers and then improve your offering before you find some more chance-takers. One blown chance is not the end of the line, although you can't afford to blow too many of them with one game. Observation: Publicity Comes In Waves Whether you like it or not, the entire gaming community is unlikely to suddenly sit up and notice your game. There are millions upon millions of gamers out there, and they don't all do anything as a group. When you're starting from scratch, with no reputation or contacts, you basically have to scrounge for anything. Each bit of publicity you gain makes the next just a bit easier. You have a bit better story to tell to potential reviewers (e.g., \"Reviewer X loved it and I was wondering if you also want to do a review since you like the same genre.\"). You will also have players who may be willing to do some publicity of their own, such as talking about the game on other forums, to their friends, etc. I can't stress enough how vital word of mouth is to the startup indie developer. People like seeing positive reviews, but have a mild distrust of that since they don't know if the reviewer's criteria are the same of their own. People also really mistrust anything that the developer says unless the developer has a really sterling reputation (which is why you must never exaggerate or say anything false about your games, incidentally). But people greatly trust the opinions of friends and acquaintances, whether online or off, so personal recommendations like that are the absolutely best sort of publicity you can get if it's on a large enough scale. If you're lucky, persistent, and patient, you'll see your publicity gradually snowballing into bigger and bigger waves of coverage. That's assuming you have a game in the undiscovered gem category or above. Every so often you should send out more press releases or review requests -- the sites won't ever talk about your stuff if they don't even know it exists. Observation: Uniqueness Counts When you are telling people about your game, what do you say? Do you hem and haw and say, \"well, it's hard to explain but it's fun?\" If so, you're digging your own grave. If you say \"it's a clone,\" you're also shooting yourself in the foot. When people think of indie games, they aren't looking for \"like that other game but not quite as good.\" They're looking for something they've never seen before, that the AAA publishers would never dare give them. If your game is just a clone of some other game, maybe you can find something of an audience, but I wouldn't know anything about that. I can't imagine it would be a sustainable business. It's okay if your game has some similarities to other games -- every game does -- but you also need to offer something genuinely new and startling. Look at all the biggest darlings, and all of the best undiscovered gems, and you'll see this trait with all of them. There is something very defining and unique about each one. Tip: Refine Your Story When you are trying to explain your game to reviewers, to potential customers, and to people you meet on the street, you need to have both an elevator pitch (\"AI War is a space-based RTS game with incredible AI and huge unit counts.\"), and you also need to be able to succinctly explain what is going on with your game at the time. Why is this game exciting? Why should the person take time out of their day to take a closer look at it? This is an evolving process, and takes a lot of work on your part. I highly recommend learning how to write a good query letter, and the best source of information I know about that (although related to book publishing) is literary agent Nathan Bransford's blog. Just so that you can see what I mean, here are some evolving emails I've used over the past few months (with extra personalization as needed for given sites or individuals): A Very Weak Query, Circa early May 2009\nHello, I'm the CEO of Arcen Games, a small indie developer. We're nearing release of our first game, an RTS called AI War. The game has incredible AI and the largest number of units (30,000+ in most games) of any game we know of. It's also cooperative-focused, which is quite unique. Through a Gamasutra article I found your site, and was hoping to get more information about who you are and what sort of opportunities there might be to work together. For screenshots, and more info: http://www.arcengames.com/\nIndie developer Arcen Games has just made public an advance release of the RTS game AI War: Fleet Command. This is a pretty unique game, with several firsts for the genre. - Cooperative RTS game (1-8 players) with numerous unique ship types. - Challenging AI (some of the best in the genre) in 26 styles, many with unique superweapons. - Insanely high unit counts: 30,000+ ships in most games. - Lengthy campaigns featuring 80+ simultaneous planetary battlefields. - Different Every Time: 16 billion procedural maps, each with specific units. - A focus on deep strategy that you don't get in most RTS games. This is a game created by genre veterans for genre veterans, but that doesn't mean it's inaccessible for players new to RTS games: robust tutorials, a simulated campaign, and a free online mini strategy guide make it easy to get into the game, but hard to master it! The Arcen Games website, with screenshots, videos, a mini strategy guide, and the demo: http://www.arcengames.com/ Thanks! Chris Park CEO, Arcen Games, LLC\nMuch Better, Much Later -- Mid-July\nHi there, I'm the developer of AI War: Fleet Command, an indie RTS game for the PC. We're fairly little known so far, but are one of the more popular titles on Stardock's Impulse, and are getting a pretty excellent player community in our forums. The game is a cooperative space-based affair, with some of the best AI in the genre (I did a recent podcast on that on techZing! in addition to a series of articles on the topic at my blog: http://christophermpark.blogspot.com). You can see screenshots and videos of the game, as well as download the demo, from our company website: http://www.arcengames.com/ If you'd like to do a review, please let me know and I'd be happy to provide a license key to unlock the full game from the demo. Additionally, if you're interested in doing an interview about any topic relating to the game, I'm always game for that (the AI has been the biggest point of discussion so far, but some players have been suggesting that it would be interesting to hear more about the decisions behind the unique and effective \"AI Progress\" mechanic in the game, or other similar game design topics). Best, Chris Park Arcen Games, LLC\nBeyond The Basics In other, later missives I was also a lot more personalized, mentioned various specific positive reviews, and talked about how this was not a traditional RTS but something of a novel blend of grand strategy, tower defense, RTS, and even with a few TBS influcenes even though it is 100% realtime. I have sent several hundred emails out to various parties about AI War, and my response rate overall has been pretty positive -- maybe 10% aggregate at this stage. These days my response rate is much higher, approach 80-90% because more people have heard whisperings of the game and I have a much better story (having had some really posive reviews from bigger sites), but early on in the response rate was more like 3-5%. This is why you have to submit to so many places! You don't know who will respond, and until you do you need to cast a wide net. If I had just made a good game, and then gotten on a distributor or two, most of the publicity for AI War would never have happened. It's just a fact. Similarly, if I had not had a number of players out there evangelising for the game, a lot of sales would never have happened. Properly promoting, supporting, and updating a post-release game is a fulltime job in itself. Be prepared. You can do a halfway job with it if you are lucky, but if you are not lucky you are once again setting yourself up to fail where you might otherwise have succeeded. In Conclusion If you thought this article was going to be advice about making a good game, then I bet you came away surprised. Making a good game is just the beginning, just as writing a good novel is only the beginning for novelists. If you read much advice for aspiring novelists, almost all of it also applies to indie developers. You need to begin by doing something awesome and startlingly new, and then you need to follow that up with lots of elbow grease, long hours, and promotion efforts (which can often be frustrating and/or distasteful depending on your personality). Anyone who thinks that being an indie developer is easy, or a path to quick money, is sorely mistaken. There is a high chance of failure, the rewards are not great unless you do above-average or better for the market into which you are entering, and it involves a heck of a lot more than just programming/designing a game. You have to be your own marketing department, sales force, PR firm, accountant, and support staff. And you have to do a stellar job at all of those different jobs, or you're only reducing your already poor chances. Granted, making a great game is what counts the most. All the PR in the world won't save a poor game, and will only make people mistrust what you say in the future -- did I mention to never exaggerate about your work? So none of this applies if your game isn't already up to snuff. But what most people fail to realize is just how much work is still involved once you have a great game in hand... and how many chances you have to still fail and languish in obscurity. There isn't a great deal of organized information about this sort of thing out there for indie developers, but you only have to look to book publishing to see where all of this is headed. The steep slope ahead of an aspiring novelist is even taller than the slope in front of the indie developer, but they are very similar slopes all the same. The indie games industry is too new to have much advice around for you to peruse, but if you look at the advice for novelists, you'll have a wealth of mostly-relevant advice. A surprising fact you might not know: most novelists, in fact almost all of them except the bestsellers, aren't making a living out of being a novelist. I kid you not, google it and see. That's pretty sobering. The rewards of indie games development are potentially much greater than the possible rewards you would see for your average aspiring novelist, but you also have a whole team of people to support rather than just a single writer. Most indie game developers aren't making a living at this either, from what I can tell, although the best certainly do. And to be the best, you've got to have the whole package. In the end, \"the whole package\" can be summarized rather neatly: you have to have a game worth playing, and people have to hear good things about about it and be able to buy it at a price they find fair. That's surprisingly harder than it sounds. You can do it, but you'll go a lot further if you consider the pitfalls and prepare for the post-release work before you actually do release. Indie game development is very much a profession, not a hobby, and it comes with all the rigors you would expect from a profession.\nGo to articles Career Development",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Case Studies \u00bb Statutory demand abuse & use\nGannons resolved a commercial dispute involving a landlord making an unjustified statutory demand for rent against their tenant.\nA statutory demand is a useful remedy to recover commercial debts, however, it should not be used lightly. The courts take a dim view of parties that abuse the insolvency procedure.\nOur client was part of a group of companies. The company was one of the larger retailers on the High Street with over 1,000 stores. It directly employed over 5000 people and its turnover exceeded \u00a3300 million. They were clearly solvent and able to pay any debts as they were due.\nBackground to statutory demand\nThe landlord served the statutory demand to our client as a result of a dispute arising over the lease.\nLease dispute\nOur client was a tenant attempting to renew their lease. The landlord, however, opposed the grant of a new lease. The issue had been listed for a preliminary hearing to determine whether a new lease should be granted. The landlord had also made an application for interim rent. If time allowed, this was to be heard on the same day. The landlord acted for himself as litigant in person.\nEntering negotiations\nAt the hearing, it became apparent that the court would dismiss the landlord\u2019s grounds of opposition. As a result, he appeared to experience a change of heart, and agreed to stay the proceedings and enter negotiations to settle the terms of the new lease.\nNegotiations break down\nIt appeared the parties were making progress. However, since the parties hadn\u2019t concluded their negotiations, the court ordered a stay. As soon as the court had risen for the day, the landlord refused to conclude the negotiations and walked out of the building.\nThe statutory demand\nFollowing that day in court, the landlord wrote alleging that he and our client had reached an agreement on interim rent, and that per the terms of that agreement our client was in rent arrears. Our client made it clear in an exchange of correspondence that in their view they had not reached any such agreement. Their records showed that they had paid the rent in full. It transpired that our client had in fact paid the rent by bank transfer.\nAt the same time, the landlord disputed the terms of the new lease. Nor would he confirm that he had withdrawn his opposition. He then served a statutory demand for unpaid rent and interim rent due during the negotiation process.\nOur client had tendered the rent, was prepared to pay the balance, and acknowledged the rent was due. The landlord, however, refused to accept payment.\nHow we resolved the commercial dispute\nOur client instructed us on these circumstances, and we primarily set about defending against the debt claim. We also obtained an injunction to prevent the landlord from issuing a winding-up petition and entitled our client to its full costs on the indemnity basis\nThe consequences would have been serious for our client if a winding-up petition had been presented. As a minimum their bank accounts would probably have been frozen; their creditworthiness would have been called into question and their payments to employees, distributors and suppliers might cease.\nOur client requested that the landlord confirm that he would withdraw the statutory demand. After all, no order or agreement was in place to pay any rent other than what was due under the terms of the lease. Our client also requested the landlord to provide an undertaking that he would not present them with a winding-up petition. If there was no undertaking, then our client would seek an injunction to prevent the winding-up petition.\nThe landlord responded by denying that our client had made any payments to him. In addition, his intention was to defend any application for an injunction.\nApplying for the injunction\nIn the absence of the landlord\u2019s undertaking, our client was concerned that they would be presented with a winding-up petition 21 days after service of the demand. Therefore, our client made an application for an interim injunction. This prevented the landlord from presenting a winding-up petition before the application for a final injunction went to court.\nOur client had to put all the information before the court relevant to the application, including matters adverse to their case. They also had to abide by any order which the court might make regarding damages if, in the court\u2019s opinion, the landlord sustained damages through pursuit of the order.\nResult of the application\nThe court heard the application on the same day because of the urgency of the matter. The courts then granted an interim order. The hearing regarding the final order took place three weeks later once all parties had submitted their evidence.\nThe court\u2019s decision at the final hearing\nAt the final application the judge granted a final injunction. The judge also ordered costs against the landlord assessed on an indemnity basis. Our client recovered virtually all its costs.\nIn making his decision, the judge took account of the landlord\u2019s previous conduct. He had served statutory demands on two previous occasions. The judge also found that the landlord\u2019s conduct in this case was not proper. He had threatened our client with the the winding up procedure to pressurise our client into accepting terms. This was despite the fact that he knew the terms were disputed and subject to existing proceedings. He also refused to accept the payments our client offered to him. Furthermore, he denied receiving others that had clearly been paid to him.\nGiven such a clear abuse of process the landlord paid the usual penalty by being subject to an order for indemnity costs.\nThe landlord had some legal knowledge, however, he refused to instruct anyone to act on his behalf. The issue became deeply emotive. The result was that he was unwilling to compromise and resorted to abusing the insolvency procedure to further his own ends.\nIt is inevitable that as litigants in person become more common, we will see more such instances where commercial clients must take extreme measures to protect themselves.\nJohn Deane heads the commercial team at Gannons. John advises businesses on effective debt recovery. There are numerous avenues to be explored.\nWe appreciate the thorough work done by Gannons to help us resolve this thorny issue.",

        "raw_content": "The political environment has become less stable over the past 24 months, with a series of protests over crime and the high cost of living having taken place in March/April 2017 and then again during October 2017 when President Emmanuel Macron was visiting the territory. Although the government has agreed to provide EUR1 billion in emergency funding to the territory, the public remain dissatisfied with the state of local healthcare and education systems, as well as crime and a rise in illegal immigrants. Labour disputes and protests over public services will remain common in 2019, causing disruption to public and commercial activities.\nThe operational environment is adequate, although infrastructure such as transport and communications tends to be in a greater state of neglect in the interior. Unions remain powerful and further strike action is highly likely through 2019, affecting multiple sectors as a result of solidarity action. Protests involving roadblocks remain likely to block major highways for up to several days. The most important union is the Union of Guianese Workers, which is affiliated to the opposition Socialist Party of Guiana (PSG). Sectors vulnerable to strike action include education, health, and transport. Foreign investors may come across low levels of corruption, such as bribery among local government officials.\nThe threat of terrorism is low. The Front National de Lib\u00e9ration de la Guyane (FNLG) has been inactive since the 1980's. As a result of several terrorist attacks in mainland France since January 2015, security around major infrastructure, including the F\u00e9lix Ebou\u00e9 airport and the Guiana Space Centre near Kourou, has been increased by state security forces, who have also increased patrols in commercial areas. Co-operation with neighbouring Brazil and Suriname has been increased. The jihadist threat faced in mainland France does not extend to French Guiana.\nThe risk of civil or interstate war in French Guiana is low. The territorial integrity of French Guiana is guaranteed by mainland France and its considerable military resources. As a result, a minor border dispute with Suriname is unlikely to lead to conflict. Calls for independence in French Guiana are relatively muted, and civil war risks remain low despite growing social unrest over crime, the cost of living and public services. State use of force is likely to be limited to restricting illegal gold mining and logging activities, combating drug trafficking and dealing with instances of rising public disorder.\nLabour strikes, solidarity protests, and demonstrations involving thousands of protesters over cost-of-living issues, the state of public services, and rising crime will remain frequent in 2019, causing disruption to roads, airports, public services, and the European Space Agency spaceport in Kourou. Protest groups, including \"500 Fr\u00e8res\" (500 Brothers) and Pou Lagwiyann Dekole (Creole for \"let Guyana take off\"), have been successful in organising large-scale protests and work stoppages, causing severe disruption to public and commercial activities. There is also the potential for environmental activism to grow in strength as new gold mines are developed.\nYellow fever: A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for all travelers over one year of age upon entry to the country. A single dose of YF vaccine is sufficient to confer sustained life-long immunity against the disease; it should be taken ten days in advance to be fully effective.\nThe rainy season lasts from December to July. Floods, which can disrupt ground transportation, often occur during this time.\nThe Northern Atlantic hurricane season lasts from June 1 to November 30. While hurricanes and tropical storms rarely hit French Guiana directly, storm systems can bring torrential rains, winds, and associated flooding and material damage to the region.\nThe rainy season lasts from January until June, with a peak of rain in May and a relative respite in March. Temperatures are higher in the forest than along the coastline; however, nights there are much cooler. Humidity levels are generally high along the coast where temperatures remain steady (28\u00b0C).\nNews Alerts in French Guiana\nTIMEFRAME: from 8/16/2018, 12:00 AM until 8/23/2018, 11:59 PM (America/Cayenne).\nCOUNTRY/REGION: Roura\nTIMEFRAME: from 6/8/2018, 12:00 AM until 6/8/2018, 11:59 PM (America/Cayenne).\nCOUNTRY/REGION: Northern French Guiana\nTIMEFRAME: from 3/6/2018, 12:00 AM until 3/12/2018, 11:59 PM (America/Cayenne).\nCOUNTRY/REGION: French Guiana",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Maisie Williams | Feb 10, 2019 | Marvel, Movies, Science Fiction, Star Wars | 0\nIn today\u2019s contemporary movie industry, a telltale sign of success is whether or not a film is worthy of a sequel. Can a standalone movie become a franchise, and in some cases a brand. Take last year\u2019s John Krasinski horror film \u2018A Quiet Place\u2018. The film is a pretty self-contained story yet it is already scheduled for a currently unnamed sequel in 2020.\nThe Marvel Cinematic Universe is a prime example of a franchise that has spent over a decade establishing its main characters, dedicating entire films to individual members of its core roster. By taking their time Marvel Studios managed to establish not only a rich and complex storyworld, they also developed their characters and placed them in an array of different stories.\nBut what about when movie franchises don\u2019t work out as well. Warner Bros. current plans for a third Fantastic Beasts movie now seem a riskier move than ever. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald put Potter fans in a frenzy last Autumn as the sequel to the 2016 film was littered with many obvious plot holes. Fans pointed out that the appearance of Professer McGonagall in the film\u2019s timeline was seven years before fans were led to believe the character was even born.\nOther criticisms came, much like those against the Harry Potter play The Cursed Child, that these prequels/sequels have an opportunity to add some much needed diversity to the canon and yet don\u2019t. The revelation that Voldemort\u2019s pet snake Nagini was in fact an Asian woman (played by Claudia Kim), who then went on to assist the villain with no agency of her own, angered many.\nRELATED: Movie Review \u2013 FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE CRIMES OF GRINDELWALD By a Potterhead\nDisney\u2019s SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY\nSolo: A Star Wars Story is another chapter in another beloved film franchise that too fell on deaf ears, being the first to make a box office loss. Despite focusing on iconic space pirate Han Solo and featuring an all-star cast with the likes of Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke and Donald Glover, Solo failed to impress audiences. One such explanation analysts blamed was \u2018franchise fatigue\u2019, as the film was released just five months after Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Others blamed production disputes and marketing, but ultimately this film felt like a drop in the ocean compared to the franchise\u2019s previous standalone, Rogue One.\nRELATED: Movie Review \u2013 SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY\nSo are extended movie franchises inherently a bad thing for cinema? Well, no. Going on romps with fan-loved characters or delving back into storyworlds purely because they\u2019re popular and have mass appeal shouldn\u2019t be the sole reasons why prequels/sequels are created. It then becomes increasingly apparent that studios are merely cashing in on profitable properties. Studios must have compelling stories to tell with their previously established characters. Stories that enrich these characters, stories that audience members want to see on the big screen.\nPreviousTHE WALKING DEAD Season 9 Midseason Recap\nNextClara Oswald\u2019s Top 5 Moments in DOCTOR WHO",

        "title": "Integrating an Asset Protection Trust into Your Offshore Protection Plan",
        "raw_content": "Posted by Georgetown Trust on Feb 5, 2015 1:00:00 PM\nProtecting the wealth generated from your offshore investing efforts is something that every investor should think about very carefully. Your ultimate goal is to utilize a combination of financial strategies that help to ensure that those assets are managed carefully and continue to add to your financial security.\nAt the same time, the vehicles that you use as part of the protection strategy must pave the way for achieving specified goals related to caring for you and your loved ones over the long term.\nChances are that you have already looked into offshore life insurance as a way of protecting some of your assets. Along with term and whole life options, the establishment of a variable universal life insurance plan that allows you to wrap some of your assets for safe keeping is a great place to start.\nIf you\u2019ve already taken that first important step, you are ready to move on to the creation of an asset protection trust or two.\nTrusts and the Asset Protection Effort\nThe underlying purpose of an asset protection trust is to ensure that resources are set aside for purposes that are in line with your financial goals. In essence, trusts allow investors to allocate specific assets to the care of the trust and a fund administrator.\nDepending on the type of trust you establish, it is possible to ensure that the resources devoted to the fund cannot be diverted for use to any other purpose. Even if you undergo some sort of financial reversal, your creditors would not be able to seize those assets in order to settle any judgement against you.\nWhat this means is that any individual or legally recognized entity that you choose to name as the beneficiary will receive the proceeds from the trust in accordance with your wishes. This arrangement can be used to create living trusts that help children and grandchildren with educational costs, living expenses or any other designated purpose that you include in the fund\u2019s terms and conditions.\nWhat Type of Asset Protection Trust is Right for Me?\nWith so many different ways to arrange an asset protection trust, it is important to determine why you want to establish a trust and what you hope to accomplish with the assets placed in that fund. Identifying the purpose in as much detail as possible will make it easier to spell out how those assets should be used.\nFrom there, it is much easier to work with a financial professional to determine which types of trust funds would accomplish what you have in mind.\nAfter establishing a clear idea of what you want to accomplish with the trust, there is the matter of deciding where to locate the fund. Just as with investment laws, the laws and regulations regarding trusts and the management of the assets entrusted to the funds will vary from one country to the next.\nIdeally, you want to set up the trust in a nation where those regulations are decidedly in your favor. The regulations should allow for the maximum benefits to be disbursed to the beneficiary. In the interim, those same regulations should allow you to take advantage of laws that keep your tax obligation to a minimum.\nAssessing Your Options for Asset Protection\nDon\u2019t get in a big hurry to set up an asset protection trust. With so many options in an offshore environment, it is important to weigh the pros and cons with offers based in a number of countries. Take the time to project the outcome of each trust, based on the type of assets pledged to the fund and the potential for shifts in financial and tax related laws over the next decade or so.\nWith this type of data on hand, it will be much easier to determine whether you want to add a single trust to your asset protection strategy or possibly create several different trusts that ultimately benefit several people or organizations that are close to your heart.",

Under the Kyoto Protocol, which emerged from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, many industrialised countries agreed to reduce their emissions of harmful greenhouse gases. This group of countries, however, is only responsible for slightly more than 10 per cent of current global emissions. Major emerging economies such as China, India, Brazil and Mexico are increasingly among the top emitters of greenhouse gases. Under a new global climate agreement for the post-2020 period, all countries are to commit to binding reduction targets.\nMexico, Costa Rica and Colombia monitor and document their progress towards achieving national greenhouse gas reduction contributions on the basis of jointly formulated accounting rules. They make these rules available to the international community, among other things through the use of a software tool.\nIn contrast to the Kyoto Protocol, the new global climate agreement allows for measures other than absolute reduction contributions \u2013 for instance targets on the expansion of renewable energies or on achieving economic growth while cutting the level of carbon emissions. However, new accounting rules are required to ensure that the attainment of such targets can be tracked by the international community.\nIn March 2015, Mexico became the first non-industrialised country to submit its Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) to the United Nations, followed by Colombia and Costa Rica in September of the same year. GIZ is supporting these three Latin American countries in setting up a system to monitor progress in achieving the resulting national climate targets.\nCompared to other emerging and developing economies, the three partner countries are at a very advanced stage in terms of their climate action efforts. Nevertheless, they have adopted different approaches. The project is working to develop the framework needed to enable their international commitment in this field to be tracked, taking into account the specific requirements of each country and international guidelines.\nGIZ works together closely with the ministries and authorities responsible for climate change issues. It organises training courses, conducts studies and collects data. It is also developing a user-friendly software tool. Professional expertise for the project is provided by \u00d6ko-Institut, Germany\u2019s Institute for Applied Ecology. The aim of the second stage of the project is to make the software tool and the rules and procedures prepared for the three countries available to the international community. To this end, access to the project findings is provided to professionals via portals and in working groups, for example at side events of UNFCC conferences and through the International Partnership on Mitigation and MRV.\nOn the basis of the project\u2019s activities, accounting rules are to be taken into account as early as the formulation stage of INDCs in future. Guidelines have already been drawn up for various relevant areas, such as the land use sector, and with regard to preventing the double counting of certificates from carbon markets and the identification of climate investments.\nIn the three partner countries, various donors are actively involved in climate change mitigation and adaptation. For instance, the World Bank and the World Resources Institute are helping Costa Rica to define its INDCs. The project is providing technical support for this process and at the same time benefits from the experience of the other stakeholders. The project has been supporting South-South cooperation between Mexico, Colombia and Costa Rica, which \u2013 particularly with regard to sustainability \u2013 promises to deliver positive results after the project ends.\ndaniel.blank@giz.de\nSpanish version: Sistemas nacionales de contabilidad de las contribuciones a la mitigaci\u00f3n de los pa\u00edses No-Anexo 1\nMexican Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) Colombian Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development (MADS) Costa Rican Ministry of Environment and Energy (MINAE) International Partnership on Mitigation and MRV Mexican-German Climate Alliance.

        "raw_content": "Signs of Elder Abuse Stuart FL\nNobody expects anything to happen to their loved ones when they are given professional care. Odds are you're paying good money to ensure that your loved one is properly taken care of so that their quality of life remains high. You've probably done a lot of research to make sure the caregiver is reputable as well. Unfortunately, elder abuse is something that can still happen. Several organizations have estimated that upwards of five million elders are abused every year.\nCommon Signs of Elder Abuse\nIt can sometimes be difficult to tell if elder abuse has taken place, especially if your loved one suffers from a cognitive impairment, which makes it hard for them to communicate, recognize what's happening to them or defend themselves against different forms of abuse. The following are a few signs to keep an eye out for that your loved one might be suffering from elder abuse:\nSigns of physical abuse - You should be very wary of any unexplained signs of injury or if the explanations for their injuries seem suspect. You should be particularly wary if injuries occur regularly. Some of the common signs of physical abuse include bruises, pressure marks, burns, sprains, dislocations and broken bones. Pay attention to the caregiver's actions as well. If they take your loved one to multiple medical facilities to receive treatment or attempt to restrict your ability to visit, it's a sign that there may be physical abuse.\nSigns of sexual abuse - Although this is the last thing you want to think about it, it can and has happened. Signs of sexual abuse include injuries around the patient's private areas, depression, difficulty walking or standing, signs of venereal diseases and inappropriate comments or touching by the caregiver.\nSigns of neglect - The caregiver is obligated to help your loved one with their activities of daily living, which includes eating, dressing, grooming, bathing and moving, to name a few. If your loved one is disabled in any way (such as physically or cognitively), then they need a lot of attention in these areas. Neglect occurs when the caregiver does not properly assist with these tasks. Neglect can occur accidentally as well. For example, if the caregiver is overworked and forgets to tend to a certain task, such as giving your loved one their medicine or gives them the wrong medicine. Some of the common signs of neglect include dirty clothes, unusual weight loss, a messy home, the lack of necessary medical aids and bedsores.\nSigns of emotional abuse - Emotional abuse can be difficult to identify, especially if your loved one has trouble with communicating. Signs of emotional abuse often include nervous or fearful behavior, withdrawal or apathy or a tense relationship with their caregiver. You can sometimes spot emotional abuse as its happening if you notice the caregiver isolating your loved one or yelling at them.\nSigns of financial exploitation - Financial exploitation is one of the most common forms of elder abuse. This is because seniors who have cognitive impairments are much easier to take advantage of and tend to have more money than younger adults. Signs of financial exploitation include more frequent cash withdrawals, increased credit card use, disappearing money, unusual purchases and unpaid bills (caregivers are often responsible for paying their patient's bills).\nThe more thoroughly you research the caregiver, the less likely elder abuse is to happen, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't watch out for it. If you do suspect elder abuse, you should call the police or a local adult protective services agency as well as speak to a lawyer specializing in elder abuse cases.\nHollywood Nursing Home Deaths",

        "raw_content": "At 11/2, World No 3 Jordan Spieth is the Bookmaker's clearcut favourite to win the Byron Nelson Classic which, for the first time, will tee-off at the Trinity Forest Golf Club in Texas on Thursday.\nThe 24-year Dallas-born young gun is also the sentimental favourite, not so much because he remains a resident of Dallas and is a standing member of the Trinity Forest Club, but perhaps more so because of the impassioned letter he wrote to the Classic's organisers when he was 16 asking to be given an exemption to play in it because it was an event he had greatly admired ever since he first watched the tournament with his father when he was eight years old.\nThe letter, which also laid out his many achievements as an amateur, including the fact that he had twice won the Junior US Open, earned him the exemption he sought and without any hesitation, he went out, made the cut and finished in a tie for 16th.\nSince then, the Byron Nelson Classic organisers will proudly tell you, he has become one of the finest golfers on the planet, having already captured three majors and 11 PGA Tour events, the most recent of them being the Open Championship in July last year, and right now he is ranked the No 3 golfer in the World.\nBut getting away from sentiment and back to why Spieth looks the man to beat this week, we should note that - along with all his other credentials and his need to win again after nearly a year without a victory - he and fellow club members Hunter Mahan and Beau Hossler are among the very few who have played on or even have any course knowledge of Trinity Forest.\nBefore now each and every Byron Nelson Classic since 1983 had been hosted by TPC Four Seasons.\nTrinity Forest is like no other on the PGA Tour. Built on a landfill of inorganic material, it's 7,380-yard par 71 track is totally devoid of any trees or water hazards, but has been given its teeth through 88 bunkers and a host of bumps and undulations that have had many comparing it with Scottish links lacking only the traditional out and back nines.\nSpieth, in a recent interview, insisted that despite its classic look, it was actually an 'American links' on which, he said, \"You've kind of got to play it from the air because it's not really a bounce-the-ball-up kind of links.\n\"You get maybe four or five, six holes where you can bounce the ball up, but the way to get balls close is to come in with a higher shot.\"\n\"It\u2019s a second shot course, where you\u2019ve really got to think about where you\u2019re leaving the ball because everything looks very spacious. There are no trees, you can work different flights, but it\u2019s very challenging if you\u2019re not really focused.\"\nTrinity Zoysia grass covers everything on the course except the greens and because it is universal at around about an inch, there is basically no rough inside the bordering native vegetation. That doesn't mean it's a pushover - with or without the famed Texas winds which once again will blow, although not too strongly this time.\nThat's because, as Australian Geoff Ogilvy has observed, \"Trinity Forest is a course that will make us use our brains.\"\n\"You have to work out where your best angles are\u2026 One side of the fairway is easy, the other side is going to be difficult. And your mistakes are magnified, but your good stuff is magnified as well. Sometimes here at Trinity, the pin isn\u2019t necessarily the target.\"\nIf the 2017 Green Jacket winner Sergio Garcia can whisk up some of his old confidence and find his missing putting touch he may finally be able to break the winless drought that has dogged him since the Masters, stop Spieth and win his third Byron Nelson event, his earlier victories having come in 20o4 and 2016.\nHis game is certainly a good fit Trinity Forest just as is South Africa's Brandon Grace who at one stage in the final round was tied with Spieth when the American won the 2015 US Open on a similar treeless American Links-type course at Chamber Bay in Washington State.\nYou might also want to keep an eye on this week's defending champion Billy Horschel whose switch of putters has brought with it a month of excellent performances that included a Zurich title.\nBeau Hossler, who lives near and practices at Trinity Forest, is another possible threat. His close miss in Houston recently showed he has the form. Put that together with his local knowledge and it sets him up as perhaps the most dangerous seeker of a maiden win in the field.\nWithout an inch of shade and with temperatures expected to soar into the 90s, Trinity Forest won't exactly be a caddies paradise this week, but it may suit the sunburnt Australians, notably Marc Leishman a renowned master of wind, any wind, and Adam Scott, now that he has gone back to his long putter which he no longer anchors and so keeps himself within the laws of the game.\nAnd there are more like back-in-form Jimmy Walker, fellow American Matt Kuchar and Japan's Hideki Matsuyama who have what it takes to carry off a title named for one of the all-time greats of the game, but in the end, all of them may have to get past the strong local favourite Spieth to win the first Byron Nelson Classic to be played at Trinity Forest.\nLEADINGS ODDS\n(Tuesday a.m. May 15, 2018)\nPeter Uihlein 60/1.\nNOTE: For all the latest odds go to www.oddschecker.com/golf/att-byron-nelson/winner.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Possums Are An Invasive Introduced Species\nPossums Are An Invasive Introduced Species\nIt is a fact that the exotic introduced species of Australian Brushtail Possum is a major ecological threat in New Zealand. Rats and stoats are also major introduced predators in the New Zealand bush.\nBy investing in a possum fur product you are contributing to the survival and regeneration of the unique native New Zealand forest, birds and insect species, many of whom are now threatened by extinction.\nBecause of its long isolation from the rest of the world, New Zealand has extraordinary and unique flora and fauna. About 80% of New Zealand's flora is endemic, meaning that it is found only in New Zealand.\nMany of our native birds have become flightless leaving them vulnerable to introduced predators. The possum has no natural predators in New Zealand to keep their numbers down naturally like they do in their native Australia. Unchecked they continue to breed and numbers are escalating out of control every year.\nSome New Zealand broad leaf tree species are absolute delicacies for possums - and these same species are also some of the countries most endangered. Possums will seek out their favourite food ahead of other species and eat them out to extinction; stripping entire trees bare of leaves so that they die.\nThis leads to competition for food with native forest birds, changes in forest composition and eventually causes forest canopy collapse. It was recently discovered that the supposedly vegetarian possum also eats native birds' eggs, baby chicks and native insects.\nSo, as well as destroying our native birds' habitat and food sources, they prey on eggs and chicks of native New Zealand bird species like the Tui, Kereru, and the endangered Kokako. The predation of bird eggs and chicks has led them to be referred to as \"reluctant folivores\", meaning that they eat foliage to survive but prefer a mix of other foods in their diet.\nThis watercolour shows three rare endangered Kokako in a native bush setting: the North Island Kokako or blue-wattle crow; the South Island Kokako or orange-wattle crow and the albino Kokako.\nKeulemans, John Gerrard, 1842-1912 :Kokako. [Between 1899 and 1906?].\nReference number: D-033-004. Permission of the Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington, New Zealand, must be obtained before any re-use of this image.\nIt is estimated that there are approximately 30-40 million possums in New Zealand, and they devour nearly 8 million tonnes of vegetation annually.\nThe New Zealand Department of Conservation and National Possum Control Agencies are trying to keep possum numbers under control by declaring possums a pest and encouraging their eradication.\nPossums are not hunted specifically for their fur; the fur is a by-product of the huge effort to save the New Zealand environment and native species. The New Zealand Government spends eighty million dollars a year on possum control.\nMost possums killed by the New Zealand Government using poison are left in the bush to rot and this natural resource is wasted.\nPossums are known carriers of bovine tuberculosis, which provides a major threat to the New Zealand dairy, beef and deer farming industries. Over the last five years, possum control programs have been the main driver of a 60% reduction in TB levels in New Zealand's cattle and deer herds.",

        "raw_content": "Compiled by Susan Fawcett, member, Coordinated Campaign Committee\nThis document is the product of the responses to a questionnaire that was sent out to all the Green candidates who ran in the U.S. 2004 general election. With the luxury of hindsight, candidates reflected and shared their experiences of what worked best, and what could have been better. This is intended to be a refined checklist of things candidates and their campaign committees should have in mind before deciding to run for office.\nThat should be the first question a candidate asks herself. Ideally, candidates should run to win, but that is not always a realistic goal, in which case Greens run to:\n*earn credibility for the party\n*energize and educate local greens\n*attract new members/supporters\n*gain practical experience\n*raise Green issues/educate the community\n*pressure opponents\n*increase choice (democracy)\n*achieve ballot access\n*establish districts\nEffective campaigning means effective use of limited resources (people, time and money). These resources are used most efficiently in different ways depending on the scope of the campaign and the office sought. State-wide or large district races with limited funding are better off spending money on things that will reach the largest amount of people possible (i.e. bumper stickers, ads), while smaller races benefit most from voter contact and mailings. Green campaigns are too diverse to generalize, but candidates felt that the following resources were the most important:\nThe Candidate is generally the best resource. S/he needs to be willing and able to put the necessary time and energy into the campaign. The most effective way to campaign is to speak to voters face to face. In races with a reasonably sized electorate (this number changes from race to race) the candidate and volunteers should begin blockwalking early and often. Most candidates said that this was their most effective use of time.\nVolunteers are essential, but tend to work best when well organized; find a volunteer coordinator, figure out jobs for people, and plug them in! Greens easily get caught up in trying to make decisions as democratically as possible, but should be aware that many volunteers just want to help out---and not attend meetings to discuss it. Try to find people to serve as campaign manager, treasurer, volunteer coordinator, webmaster, etc. early on.\nFundraising should begin in the earliest stages of the campaign, and fellow Greens, friends and family of the candidate are often the best places to start for seed money. Don\u2019t be afraid to ask for money! Often those who sympathize, but don\u2019t have time to contribute are happy to make a financial contribution to a worthwhile cause.\nDepending on how much is available, money can be used for a variety of things of varying usefulness, but most candidates (especially in local races) found\nthat sending out mailers was the most effective use. Visibility is essential, and can be enhanced through ads, yard signs, bumper stickers, etc. but free sources (radio shows, television, letters to the editor, candidate events and fora) can be just as useful.\nResist the temptations of expensive, flashy unnecessary things.\nThe first thing the candidate should do before declaring is to familiarize himself with the issues.\nVolunteers may be helpful in researching certain topics. While developing a platform, candidates should also spend time approaching groups and individuals in the community and simply listening to what they have to say about the issues.\nHaving a good website can be crucial, and should be developed in conjunction with your platform. A website has the benefit of being free (talk a friend into setting it up!) or fairly cheap and still being able to reach large amounts of people. Unlike literature, it can be updated on a daily basis, if necessary. It\u2019s a good idea to include your website on any materials you put out; lit, buttons, yard signs, etc.\nIt\u2019s amazing what can be done with little or no money, as long as the campaign takes advantage of as many opportunities for public exposure as possible. This gets back to the importance of listening. Many organizations won\u2019t invite Greens to seek their endorsements, and begin the process before the Democratic and Republican primaries, so it\u2019s up to you to take the initiative and approach labor, environmental, LGBT groups, etc. Try to keep your eye on all the questionnaires that come in, because they can make the difference, especially in a large race.\nThe same rules apply when dealing with the media: Seek them out and send press releases early and often, and try to give them a story instead of just announcing an event. Develop personal relationships with the political correspondents of newspapers.\nPredictably, Greens also said they would start organizing sooner, and involve themselves with as many community groups as possible. In retrospect, many Greens also said they would choose to run for a more winnable office, if given another opportunity. We are a grassroots party, and though it is necessary to maintain visibility and keep raising the issues in big races, our victories will come from the bottom up.",

        "title": "Project Management Across Borders, by C. Grove et al.",
        "raw_content": "Project Management Across Borders\nLeveraging Human Resources Strategically\nCornelius Grove, Willa Hallowell, & Al Gossie\nThe following article appeared in the Spring 1999 issue of International HR Journal, published by Warren, Gorham & Lamont. Following is the original, unedited typescript of that article.\nAl Gossie is a project manager with Corning, Inc., who had 20 years of experience overseeing major projects in China, Korea, India, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, and the United States.\nA slightly revised version of this article appeared in Projects & Profits, ICFAI Press (Hyderabad, India), December 2001.\nThis article concerns the wise use of human resources on major international projects. One reason why a company owner or executive sends employees abroad to work on a project is to complete the project. There can be a second objective as well: to amplify the competencies of employees to undertake more varied, more challenging, and perhaps more lucrative international work in the future. Our purpose is to discuss how this second objective can be attained.\nWe will proceed as follows: First, we will examine the nature of human competencies. Next, we will specify four conditions for competency growth. In the body of the article, we will discuss each of these four in turn, being careful in each case to focus on ways of enlarging the capacity of the company for international expansion. In a sidebar, we will briefly describe one additional, advanced approach to getting the most out of international project personnel.\nStrategic Resources and Strategic Competencies\nStrategic resources include land, facilities, equipment, money, patents, and labor in the sense of people whose routine tasks create goods or perform services. Such things are \"strategic\" because they can be transferred between applications, that is, can be withdrawn from an existing use and reapplied to an emerging use. Strategic resources are tangible and easy to account for, have a determinable market value, and show up routinely on balance sheets.\nStrategic competencies include management acumen, market knowledge, cross-cultural skills, and technological capabilities. They are information-based invisible assets residing within the minds of employees. As \"strategic,\" they can be withdrawn from one use and reapplied to another. As \"competencies,\" however, they are intangible and hard to account for, have a market value that is enigmatic, and show up rarely on balance sheets.\nWhen the owners or executives hire or assign technical, professional, and managerial employees to work on an overseas project, they take into account the competencies of those individuals. For example, if the decision-makers are seeking a project manager to oversee the construction of a nuclear facility, they insist on someone within whom resides nuclear engineering know-how or competency. In doing this, they are viewing that person's set of competencies as \"fixed,\" that is, as an asset that remains constant.\nThere's a second sense in which competencies can be viewed: as \"organic.\" Because competencies are properties of the human mind, they are capable of expanding, adapting, and multiplying. The engineer who oversees construction of a nuclear facility in China will come away from that experience with refined nuclear engineering skills. . .plus new skills for dealing with Chinese laborers, professionals, and bureaucrats. His or her skills have not only grown but also branched into new venues. This organic quality of competencies potentially provides long-term strategic advantage to the firm that employs that engineer.\nThe organic property of human competencies can be actively developed through training. It also can be actively developed through deliberate efforts to leverage the learning that accumulates as a result of day-by-day work. It is this latter case that we address in this article. Our objectives are to suggest ways in which the daily operations of a cross-border project can be used to leverage learning for the firm's benefit, and to discuss HR's role in making this happen.\nConditions for Competency Growth\nThe situation we address here is one in which your company is cooperating with another rooted in a different nation and culture in order to jointly complete a large international project. For this to occur, both companies are contributing certain resources. Among these resources are employees who bring to their responsibilities a variety of competencies in the fixed sense.\nThe question we address is this: How can you ensure that your project employees' competencies will organically grow, adapt, and multiply, and that your firm will reap the long-term benefits? Our answer is: In order for this to occur, your international project employees need to. . .\n1. have the possibility of learning;\n2. be motivated to learn on your firm's behalf;\n3. be free of distractions that make learning difficult; and\n4. receive new assignments that draw on their expanded competencies.\n1. Protecting the Possibility of Learning\nWhen two firms plan a project together, a topic they always discuss is the various tangible assets associated with the project. For example, they contractually specify what is to become of facilities built, patents gained, and markets captured. Senior employees are held accountable by their respective firms for insuring that such assets are distributed according to plan.\nWhat about intangible assets associated with the project, such as human competencies? They also are likely to increase as a by-product of employees' daily work on the project. They usually receive little or no attention in the contract, leaving open the danger that learning opportunities will become far more available to the local firm's project employees than to yours.\nFor example, suppose your firm views staffing as a cost. The local firm magnanimously offers to staff most of the project's day-to-day operations. You agree, while making sure that your firm is equitably represented on the top policy- and decision-making team. This is a wise choice, right? In terms of tangible assets, yes. In terms of intangible assets -- multiplying competencies through on-the-job learning -- probably not. Value-adding competencies are rarely generated at meetings of executives. They're generated each and every day in laboratories, on production lines, and at marketing meetings. Is it your people, or your partner's people, who are doing this experience-rich work? If it's your partner's, you've probably given away the possibility of learning.\nThe same may be said about the HR function. When a project will be carried out abroad, it's seems a no-brainer to defer to your partner's suggestion that his local people handle most or all HR issues. You've saved on cost. But have you protected the possibility of learning? Your own HR people will have no opportunity to master local labor market conditions and practices. And you've given up much of your influence over day-to-day personnel deployment issues, which lowers the likelihood that your project people will be assigned in ways that provide the possibility of learning.\nBe proactive about this. During the negotiation stage, bargain to acquire slots where some of your people can find high-yield opportunities to learn, opportunities to fill gaps in your firm's storehouse of knowledge useful in the global marketplace. Then assign your high-potential employees to those slots.\n2. Motivating Project Employees to Learn\nMost job descriptions are oriented in the present. They describe an employee's responsibilities for carrying out certain tasks so that existing contracts can be completed or existing customers can be satisfied. Job descriptions can be oriented, in addition, toward the future. They can describe an employee's responsibilities for contributing to the firm's strategic competencies through individual learning, then through disseminating that learning. The employee can be held accountable for doing this, and doing it well.\nYour firm's partnership in an overseas project offers an unparalleled opportunity for the gathering of useful global intelligence. Just think of it: In a distant market of interest to you, your people can actually live in local communities and work shoulder-to-shoulder with local nationals, insiders with nuanced understandings of local business practices and effective informal ways of getting things done. Your people can capture this fresh information and bring it back alive. We suggest that they'll be more likely to do this if you explicitly require it of them, which includes, during performance appraisals, judging whether and how well they've done this.\nDon't just require it. Reward it, too. Offer annual awards to those who not only learn from their experiences abroad, but effectively disseminate their new knowledge or skills to colleagues. More importantly, structure career opportunities so that those who use overseas projects to build their own and others' strategic competencies are more likely to move up rapidly.\nFinally, pay explicit attention to the dissemination side of this equation. New abilities in two or three employees' brains doesn't quite capture the grandeur of \"organizational learning.\" Some executives handle dissemination by promoting brown-bag lunches or adding information to a data base. In our view, such measures have little long-term effectiveness. So ask yourself what the path is, in down-to-earth terms, from one person with new knowledge and skills all the way to broadly amplified capabilities for many members of your organization? When you have an answer, make it happen.\n3. Eliminating Distractions from Learning\nOn many overseas projects, the group of expatriate employees can be conceived as a pyramid. At the pinnacle is the international project manager, or IPM. Just below him or her are key managers overseeing functions such as operations, finance, and engineering. These senior people tend to be on-site for the life of the project; many may live near the site with their families. Below them, as the pyramid spreads out, are the specialists. Many of these will be on-site for short periods of time; families are less likely to accompany them.\nAll these people need to (1) arrive at the site, (2) live and work under conditions that promote diligent concentration on tasks and on learning while they're there, and (3) return home. Things that must be attended to include passports, visas, relocation, work permits, taxes, housing, commuting, safety, health, emergencies, etc. Then there are other things that, strictly speaking, need not be dealt with: R&R and social events, mental and emotional health, cross-cultural effectiveness, individual and family well-being. . . . Experience shows, however, that these will be dealt with, whether planned for or not. Why? Because the IPM and his staff are feeling human beings, not robots.\nWho is responsible, day-to-day, for looking after all these human issues? On many projects it's the IPM, his chief lieutenants, and their clerical staffs. (In one case we know of, it was the IPM's spouse.) Senior managers are rarely trained to handle these issues. And handling these issues is not their principal responsibility. Results: Key leaders are drawn away from their primary duties, and employees have their needs sporadically and inexpertly met. Distracted or even demoralized by the trivia and frustrations of living and working abroad, expat employees at both high and lower levels are prevented from making their optimal contributions to the project. And they are deflected from learning.\nThe role of HR. When an HR professional is added to the on-site team, outcomes improve. \"On-site\" is critical. Many matters that require handling are complicated by uniquely local business practices, legal rules, and personalities. Personnel support is far more effective when provided face-to-face than via e-mail. Experience teaches us that trying to handle the HR function from another continent rarely works. (If it does, it's because operational employees on-site are neglecting their primary duties to make it work.)\nExpatriate relocation services and cross-cultural coaching are far more effective when there are people on both the sending and receiving sides. Local and home country policies and practices can be aligned more competently when there's a professional both here and there. Finally, HR people can serve as one of the principal bridges among project sites and the home office, helping to maintain harmony and making sure that people traveling between or among the various locations are wisely and warmly dealt with.\nA New \"Work Breakdown Structure\" [sidebar]\nBesides the four requirements for leveraging human resources strategically discussed in the body of this article, we believe there's a fifth. . .if you're determined to support your overseas project exceptionally well. Related to our third requirement (insuring that employees are free of distractions that make learning difficult), the fifth one involves the development of a detailed, written plan for addressing a project's cross-border and cross-cultural challenges. For project management professionals, a plan of this type is tangibly embodied in a \"Work Breakdown Structure,\" or WBS.\nIn an article entitled A Parallel WBS for International Projects,to be published in the spring of 1999 in Project Management Network, Grove and Hallowell, together with third co-author Cynthia J. Smith, suggest that international projects have a \"Culture Risk Management\" Team to implement eight elements of a special WBS. In typical WBS language, the principal headings of the eight elements are:\nSpecifically, an on-site HR professional has three critical objectives:\nTo promote the success of the project in the many ways mentioned above.\nTo navigate and mediate between, on the one hand, the procedures of the home organization and regulations of the home government, and on the other hand, local realities and governmental regulations.\nTo gain and maintain the confidence of key people in the home organization and to amplify their understanding of the daily realities and requirements of life and work at a smoothly functioning overseas project site.\nIt's the HR professional's responsibility (ultimately, it's the IPM's responsibility) to ensure that none of these three objectives is ignored while both or even one of the others receives all the attention. Discharging these responsibilities well requires, in our view, occasional international travel.\nFulfilling the role of HR. One question remains: What type of person should carry out the HR duties on the project site? There are several options, and they are not necessarily mutually exclusive: (1) a local national HR professional engaged as an individual consultant or a representative of an HR services firm; (2) a home-country individual who already lives locally and is engaged locally to handle HR functions; (3) a home-office HR professional who visits the site periodically; (4) a home-office HR professional expatriated to the site to work full-time. Let's consider the advantages and disadvantages of each.\nThe local national HR professional, engaged as an individual consultant or representative of an HR services firm, is likely to have the edge in terms of knowing local personnel laws and interceding with local bureaucracies. He or she will be fluent in the local language and be able to \"read\" situational cues in order to quickly understand events involving local national employees. And in some cases, this type of person may also be familiar with your home-country personnel practices as well as the interface between local and home-country personnel issues, such as taxes. These are strong inducements. But there's a down side: You forfeit the possibility of learning. Your HR professionals, and your firm as a whole, learns nothing in terms of strategic HR competencies.\nA home-country individual who already lives locally -- this is an intriguing option that can work quite well. In one case we know of, an English-as-a-Second-Language teacher who had lived and worked locally for several years was engaged to handle HR functions. In another case, the new hire was lured away from a U.S. airline. In both cases, the individual in question had extensive on-the-ground experience dealing with local nationals, spoke the local language well, and understood local nonverbal and situational nuances in interpersonal communication. Because they had personally figured out how to live successfully in the local community, each was outstanding in dealing with the human issues of expatriate project personnel. There were some down sides: Neither was knowledgeable about the intricacies of local and home-country personnel laws. And the HR people back in the home country resented that a nonspecialist had been put on the job. These problems are not intractable; for example, the local hire can be sent temporarily to the home office in order to learn from, and build relationships with, the HR staff. Finally, if a person such as this can learn quickly and well, then be retained and reassigned by your firm, you've gained a valuable strategic asset.\nOur third option was a home-office HR professional who visits your project site periodically. From the point of view of the project's well being, this is the least attractive possibility because, most likely, that person would actually be on the project site far less than 50% of the time. We recommend against this option. But if the project's HR needs can be fulfilled in some other way or combination of ways, we support short-term staff visits to field sites.\nOur final option was a home-office HR professional expatriated to the project site to work full-time. Success depends largely on selecting the right individual. The person chosen should have a working knowledge of the local language and culture at the project site or, at the very least, prior overseas working experience. Anyone without such experiences is likely to have too many personal hurdles to leap to be productive on behalf of the project. (Fortunately, people with such backgrounds can be found with conscientious efforts.) Coming up to speed on local personnel laws, the local bureaucracy, and the subtleties of local interpersonal communication may be a \"stretch,\" but the home-country HR professional who can learn quickly will both strengthen the project and become a valuable strategic asset for your firm.\n4. Reassigning Project Employees\nManagement literature and anecdotal evidence is rife with cases in which loyal and able employees were sent on an international assignment of several years duration. There they performed reasonably well and learned much of value in the global marketplace. The total cost to their firm was low seven-figures. But beyond that value of the work they completed while abroad, no additional return on that investment was ever realized. Why? Because these employees never received any other assignment that exploited their expanded, broadly reassignable \"global\" competencies. Their competencies withered from disuse.\nThere are two basic reasons why many companies are unable to take this fourth and final step in leveraging human resources strategically. One is the high turnover of repatriated employees. Up to 50% of repatriated employees depart within the first three years.\nThe other reason why the freshly minted global competencies of recently returned expats are allowed to wither is this: Owners and executives, on the whole, appear not to make it a priority to find assignments at home or abroad that draw on a returnee's competencies. For example, a manager returned from a project in Changsha is reassigned -- after a demoralizing sit-on-your-hands delay -- to the firm's branch office in Chattanooga. One of the principal causes of high turnover among recent repats is reassignments that are perceived to be inappropriate by the repat and everyone else. . .except the boss.

Another skilled guitarist with a large arsenal of contemporary shred techniques and a good, solid vibrato, Gargiulo's compositions stand out as being more dynamic than many of the demos reviewed here. His favorite approach is to start the tune in a mellow fashion, then end with a heavy and powerful section. When not shredding, Gargiulo trys to be melodically profound - and succeeds more often than not. He also goes the extra mile at times to make the solo sections sound different from what you might expect. All the tracks on the demo were recorded on Gargiulo's home PC. It would be great to hear Gargiulo's work in a few years if he keeps developing his composition and production skills, perhaps with a collaborator or two.\nMichael has been playing guitar for about 14 years. Self-taught, except for a few local lessons, his influences include Marty Friedman, Steve Morse, Kee Marcello, Tony MacAlpine. Michael's songwriting influences include anything that catches his ear, whether it be a classical piece, a heavy metal tune, or music from a video game. He continually strives to improve his playing technically and melodically.\nUntil recently, Gargiulo had not thought about taking his music beyond the hobby level.

The right to keep and bear arms is a collective right, not an individual right, under the United States Constitution?\n2. The right to keep and bear arms is guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution and applies to the state and local governments by the 14th Amendment's Due Process Clause?\n3.

        "title": "Tom Brady and Peyton Manning: Burn Out or Fade Away?",
        "raw_content": "Tom Brady and Peyton Manning: Burn Out or Fade Away?\nImage courtesy of Craig Hawkins/Flickr.\nNo one in the sports world thinks that this could be the last season for Peyton Manning or Tom Brady. Both have a few years left on their contracts (even though Manning is on year-to-year club extensions), both are still playing at a high level, and both teams have limited to zero options outside of their respective Hall of Famers. But let us play a little game of \u201cwhat if?\u201d\nWhat if Tom Brady and Co. win the Super Bowl this year? And what if Brady decides it\u2019s better to go out on top than it is to come back for another year (much like Ray Lewis)? At the same time what if Peyton Manning decides his body is breaking down too much, and he needs to step away from football to focus on his real passion (making commercials)? What is the legacy of these two players?\nFor Manning it is a very Yin and Yang discussion. Some will point to his statistics and argue he is the best quarterback of all time. While currently he is just a little over 2,000 yards shy of Brett Favre\u2019s all-time mark, Manning has eclipsed his touchdown number. Manning did all that in fewer games while throwing far fewer interceptions than Favre. Like Favre, Manning has one Super Bowl ring, which is one more than the next guy in the discussion: Dan Marino. Still, others will point out that Manning is unreliable in the playoffs. His nine \u201cone-and-done\u201d playoff series are the most of all time. It has got to a point where Manning was part of a bit on Saturday Night Live where a \u201cPeyton Manning\u201d was a term used for a team or player who did really well in the regular season and then fell apart in the playoffs. For a joke to be funny there has to be a shred of truth to it. The funniest thing about this is there could be debate about whether Peyton is even the best Manning. Brother Eli Manning has won two Super Bowls, two Super Bowl MVPs, and happened to beat Tom Brady in both of those games.\nFor Brady there is far less debate. He\u2019s played in five Super Bowls and won three. No other quarterback has played in more Super Bowls (John Elway has also played in five), and with a win Tom would tie Terry Bradshaw and Joe Montana for the most wins by a starting quarterback (both Terry and Joe are 4-0). Tom has put up some amazing numbers during the regular season, second only to Peyton in most categories. Were it not for Manning playing in the same era I\u2019m not sure that Brady isn\u2019t a unanimous pick as the best quarterback of all time, an amazing feat for someone drafted in the fifth round. Still, the Super Bowl losses against the New York Giants sting, particularly the one that would have capped a perfect season. The only real debate surrounding Brady is whether or not he is the best. He will draw comparisons between Manning, Marino, Joe Montana, and anyone else you could bring into the discussion.\nUltimately it\u2019s the players\u2019 decision, but I lean towards burning out over fading away. Ray Lewis retired after winning his second Super Bowl. The man was still playing at a high level despite his age, but you saw the lost steps. Ray was not making plays he would have made five years ago.\nThe tail end of this year should be an eye opening for all the Peyton Manning fans out there. Next year Peyton could be back to his old self, but he could be even worse that what we\u2019ve seen over the last month. Is that what you want for his last season? Is that what Peyton wants? The game will not be the same once both of them have hung up their cleats, but I\u2019d rather see the players dictating that they are done with the game, rather than the game being done with the player.\nRelated Items:bmf, brett farve, joe montana, john elway, nfl, peyton manning, super bowl, tom brady\nWelcome to \u2018The Panda\u2019s Friend\u2019 Web Shop!",

        "raw_content": "Types of child custody in Michigan family law\nOn behalf of Law Offices of Harris & Literski posted in Family Law on Tuesday, August 7, 2018.\nParents who put off filing for divorce out of fear that they will no longer be as active of a parent are usually doing little more than dragging out a bad situation. This only makes matters worse for everyone in the long run. Having a better understanding of Michigan family law and how it applies to child custody matters can help ease some of these worries.\nThere are actually two types of custody -- physical and legal. People are usually most familiar with the concept of physical custody. This covers which parent a child lives with, at what times and when they see their other parent. Legal custody refers to decision making regarding serious matters, including religious upbringing, medical decisions and education.\nParents often share joint legal custody, meaning that they both have the right to actively make decisions about how their child is raised. In some situations, parents also share joint physical custody. This is an increasingly popular approach that does away with the idea of one parent holding primary custody and the other having visitation rights. Instead, children spend roughly equal amounts of time living with each parent. Although there is some debate over the effectiveness of joint custody, proponents point out that maintaining open access to both parents can lessen the emotional impact of divorce.\nWhen deciding how to handle custody, parents should always consider what is in their child's best interests rather than their own. This means taking into account a number of factors, including the child's wishes, religious or cultural needs and even parental mental health or drug use. Some Michigan parents will be able to use this information to create an agreeable custody arrangement, while others will need to go before a family law judge who will have the final say on the matter.",

        "title": "4 Facts To Consider Before Painting Your House | Hatch Homes",
        "raw_content": "Little Known Factors to Consider When Having Your House Painted\nIf you\u2019ve recently started looking into having the outside of your house professionally painted, you might be surprised by all of the things you have to take into consideration! You must, for example, make sure you select a reputable contractor who has the proper insurance coverage, determine the cost of materials, and factor-in labor expenses.\nThere are, however, even more, factors you might not even know exist at this point! You will learn about some of these in this guide. Don\u2019t let all of these factors scare you off, though. The more educated you are about exterior house painting, the easier it will be for you to pick an excellent contractor who is charging you a fair rate for the work that needs to be done on your property.\nPrep work tends to be the most overlooked aspect of exterior paint jobs. If your house isn\u2019t correctly prepped for its new paint, the odds are good that the project won\u2019t go as planned and the paint won\u2019t look as good as it could have. Prep steps that may add to your final cost are outlined here:\nPower washing \u2013 No matter what type of covering is on your house, power washing it thoroughly before starting a paint job is a good idea. In some cases, paint manufacturers actually require proof of power washing in order to honor their warranties. Your contractor should know if this is true of the paint brand you selected for your project.\nScraping off old paint \u2013 Concrete, wood, and stucco homes are all especially likely to require scraping before new paint can be put on. If old paint shards are left peeling just under the surface of a new paint job, it can lead to a variety of problems. Scraping a house entirely can be quite time-consuming for contractors, so it\u2019s important to note that this could add quite a bit to your final bill.\nReplacing rotting or broken wood \u2013 If you have wood siding on your house, you must bear in mind that it is exposed to the elements 24/7 throughout every season of the year. This means that it can rot or become damaged no matter how hard you try to maintain it. Since there\u2019s no point in putting new paint on rotting or broken boards, your painting contractor may have to replace some sections of your siding prior to starting your project. This, of course, comes at a cost.\nPriming the house \u2013 Any good painting contractor will prime your home before putting a new coat of paint on it. This ensures that the surface of your house is as ready as it can possibly be to absorb fresh paint. Without primer, it can be difficult to get paint to adhere to rough or weathered spots on your residence.\nIf you would like to find out exactly how much you\u2019re going to have to spend to have your house painted, contact Hatch Homes today. Someone from our skilled team will be happy to look at your home, explain the prep work that will be required for your project, and give you a complete estimate. We\u2019ve been serving families throughout the Carolinas for many years, and we\u2019re excited to help you boost the curb appeal of your house soon!",

        "raw_content": "Success Stories \u2013 October 9, 2018\nChristian Mochizuki grew up on Windward Oahu and earned a worldwide reputation as a music producer and DJ, and continues to work on his solo music career\nChristian Mochizuki has worked with Kanye West, won a Grammy and traveled the world as a DJ and music producer. But the local boy from Kahaluu says Hawaii is where he wants to stay. His advice to those who hope to achieve similar success: Work on your music every day, just like he did, and pick a focus.\n\u201cI\u2019m not on this, \u2018Let\u2019s do anything and everything and be insane,\u2019 \u201d Mochizuki says. \u201cIn my head, I know how I want my next project to sound, sonically. Visually, I know how I want it to be represented. That took me awhile to build. It wasn\u2019t something that just came. It took me training my brain.\u201d\nHis start in music came playing guitar with friends in the neighborhood. After graduating from Castle High School, he moved to the Mainland to learn audio engineering. He returned home and worked at Island Sound Studios in Hawaii Kai, then known as Avex Honolulu Studios, deejaying almost every night at clubs in Waikiki and elsewhere, often for little pay.\nHis big break came at Avex, assisting Kanye West on his 2010 album,\u201cMy Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,\u201d and West\u2019s Jay-Z collaboration, \u201cWatch the Throne.\u201d Mochizuki won a Grammy for his sound engineering work on \u201cMy Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,\u201d a complex album that many consider West\u2019s masterpiece and some call one of the best rap albums of all time.\nHis DJ break came when he won a contest with other local producers as \u201cOOF\u201d to play at the 2014 Electric Daisy Carnival\u2019s Discovery Stage in New York. After that, he started producing an emerging type of electronic dance music with hip-hop drums deemed \u201cEDM Trap\u201d that got plays on the world\u2019s biggest music festival stages from superstars like Diplo and Flosstradamus.\nMochizuki once used the out-of-control moniker of Christian The Lion/Glitchdick, but rebranded himself simply as Graves in 2015. The former guitar-playing punk rocker turned worldwide touring producer has grown into a confident artist and father. We sit on his balcony and talk as he trims his plants and shares his story, while his family lounges inside of his music studio/apartment.\nHe says he is now nurturing his own distinct sound as a solo musician. His new single will be released soon, the follow-up to his 2017 EP debut named \u201cHilo.\u201d\nTraveling between Oahu and various Los Angeles studios like Skrillex\u2019s has allowed him to network with some of electronic dance music\u2019s biggest artists, including RL Grime and Flume. Those relationships have helped him shape his sound, he says.\n\u201cIn my head, I know how I want my next project to sound, sonically. Visually, I know how I want it to be represented. That took me awhile to build. It wasn\u2019t something that just came. It took me training my brain.\u201d\n\u2014Christian Mochizuki\n\u201cWhen you care about something, you put more effort into it and it\u2019s not just like throwing paint on the wall and saying, \u2018Look at my art.\u2019 That\u2019s still art, but it\u2019s not the same type of art as if someone sat there for 10 months painting this masterpiece. It\u2019s a different type of art. I\u2019m on that type of art.\u201d\nReleasing a steady stream of music, or mixes, helps him stay relevant as an in-demand producer and sell tickets to his sold-out shows on the Mainland and in Australia, Japan and elsewhere. When he\u2019s not touring, he says, he\u2019s working on music all day, every day, in his home studio on Oahu.\nMochizuki says Hawaii is his favorite place, even after touring the world many times. What excites him most are intimate club events he\u2019ll do in Honolulu as a surprise, without advance promotion. He says these are similar to his DJ gigs at obscure Waikiki bars before he broke through in the music business.\nHe acknowledges Bruno Mars as someone who followed a similar path to musical success, including leaving the Islands to get recognized by a broader, more accepting audience. Mochizuki says that although his success took years, he doesn\u2019t \u201cwant anyone\u2019s sympathy, ever,\u201d because he\u2019s always been doing what he loves.",

        "title": "Bone Graft: Purpose, Procedure, and Risks",
        "raw_content": "Medically reviewed by William Morrison, MD on November 6, 2018 \u2014 Written by Brian Krans\nA bone graft is a surgical procedure used to fix problems with bones or joints.\nBone grafting, or transplanting of bone tissue, is beneficial in fixing bones that are damaged from trauma or problem joints. It\u2019s also useful for growing bone around an implanted device, such as a total knee replacement where there is bone loss or a fracture. A bone graft may fill an area where bone is absent or help provide structural stability.\nThe bone used in a bone graft can come from your body or a donor, or it can be entirely synthetic. It can provide a framework where new, living bone can grow if it\u2019s accepted by the body.\nThe two most common types of bone grafts are:\nallograft, which uses bone from a deceased donor or a cadaver that has been cleaned and stored in a tissue bank\nautograft, which comes from a bone inside your body, such as your ribs, hips, pelvis, or wrist\nThe type of graft used depends on the type of injury your surgeon is repairing.\nAllografts are commonly used in hip, knee, or long bone reconstruction. Long bones include arms and legs. The advantage is there\u2019s no additional surgery needed to acquire the bone. It also lowers your risk of infection since additional incisions or surgery aren\u2019t required.\nAllograft bone transplant involves bone that has no living cells so that the risk of rejection is minimal as opposed to organ transplants, in which living cells are present. Since the transplanted bone doesn\u2019t contain living marrow, there is no need to match blood types between the donor and the recipient.\nWhy bone grafting is performed\nBone grafting is done for numerous reasons, including injury and disease. There are four main reasons bone grafts are used:\nA bone graft may be used in the case of multiple or complex fractures or those that don\u2019t heal well after initial treatment.\nFusion helps two bones heal together across a diseased joint. Fusion is most often done on the spine.\nRegeneration is used for bone lost to disease, infection, or injury. This can involve using small amounts of bone in bone cavities or large sections of bones.\nA graft can be used to help bone heal around surgically implanted devices, like joint replacements, plates, or screws.\nThe risks of a bone graft\nAll surgical procedures involve risks of bleeding, infection, and reactions to anesthesia. Bone grafts carry these risks and others, including:\nrejection of the bone graft\nreabsorption of the graft\nAsk your doctor about these risks and what you can do to minimize them.\nHow to prepare for bone grafting\nYour doctor will perform a complete medical history and physical examination before your surgery. Make sure you tell your doctor about any medications, over-the-counter drugs, or supplements you\u2019re taking.\nYou\u2019ll most likely be required to fast before surgery. This is done to prevent complications while you\u2019re under anesthesia.\nYour doctor will give you complete instructions about what to do in the days before and the day of your surgery. It\u2019s important to follow those instructions.\nHow a bone graft is performed\nYour doctor will decide which type of bone graft to use before your surgery. You\u2019ll be given general anesthesia, which will put you into a deep sleep. An anesthesiologist will monitor the anesthesia and your recovery.\nYour surgeon will make an incision in the skin above where the graft is needed. They\u2019ll then shape the donated bone to fit the area. The graft will be held in place using any of the following:\nOnce the graft is securely in place, your surgeon will close the incision or wound with stitches and bandage the wound. A cast or splint may be used to support the bone while it heals. Many times, no casting or splint is necessary.\nRecovery from bone grafts depends on the size of the graft and other variables. Typical recovery can take anywhere from two weeks to more than a year. You\u2019ll probably need to avoid vigorous physical activity for as long as your surgeon suggests.\nApply ice and elevate your arm or leg after surgery. This is extremely important. It can help prevent swelling, which causes pain and can cause blood clots in your leg. As a general rule, keep your arm or leg above the level of your heart. Even if your injury is in a cast, putting ice bags over the cast may help.\nDuring your recovery, you should exercise the muscle groups that weren\u2019t affected by the surgery. This will help keep your body in good shape. You should also maintain a healthy diet, which will aid in the recovery process.\nOne of the best things you can do is quit smoking. This will improve the health of your body after surgery and beyond.\nSmoking slows the healing and growth of bone. Research has shown that bone grafts fail at a higher rate with smokers. As well, some surgeons refuse to do elective bone grafting procedures on people who smoke.\nFind out more about the benefits of quitting smoking.\nWhat Is Knee Replacement Revision Surgery?\nEverything You Should Know About Avascular Necrosis (Osteonecrosis)\nSpinal fusion is a procedure that permanently joins two vertebrae into one solid bone. It treats disorders such as herniated disks.\nBone fracture repair is a surgery to fix a broken bone using metal screws, pins, rods, or plates to hold the bone in place.

        "raw_content": "Most of our procedures take 2 minutes. That's right: 2 minutes - with a silent, hand-held device that is far friendlier than the old-school noisy machine that some other offices still use. During those two minutes, you will be very well sedated.\nExpect to be here 2 hours, maybe 3. There is paperwork and testing before the procedure, and if you had surgery, 30-60 minutes in the Recovery Room while the sedation wears off.\nYou will be greeted by courteous and respectful medical staff.\nWe will ask you about your needs and questions - there will never be any pressure about your choice with the pregnancy. If you need time, you'll leave and whatever you paid initially will go toward the procedure when you come back so you don't pay twice for two visits.\nWe will provide you with information to answer those needs.\nWe will review your medical situation and make recommendations customized to your specific situation.\nUltrasound is offered to all patients (it is a medical necessity for those who choose to have an abortion, to assess the stage of pregnancy). We do ultrasound only to the extent that is medically appropriate for your safe treatment. There is no sound with it. Some patients want to see the ultrasound images, and some don\u2019t. We will honor your preference either way.\nIf a woman chooses to have an abortion, the process can usually begin immediately.\nPost-operative birth control options will be offered.\nWe accept cash, VISA, Mastercard, and Discover.\nSomeone to drive you (you may leave still feeling some lingering effects of sedation).\nEvidence that you are 18 years old or more or evidence that your parents have been notified of your intent to have an abortion, or evidence that you are an emancipated minor (Colorado law). If you have questions about this, please call us.\u200b\nPlease wear comfortable clothes, including larger underwear that can securely hold the large pad that we will give you after your procedure.\nAlso, please do not eat or drink after 6am the day of your abortion, to reduce the chance of becoming nauseous from the sedation.\nFor Those 50 Miles Away Or More\nWe can still see you here, however, we will need to make special arrangements.\nSome abortion procedures over 14 weeks gestation begin with an overnight medical treatment. We start the treatment on the first day, the patient goes home, then she returns the second day to finish, or when 18 weeks along, we may finish the third day. On rare occasions, the patient is uncomfortable in the middle of the night and should be seen by the on-call doctor. In such a situation, we would not want the patient unreasonably far from the office. This is especially true in the winter, when snow can make a trip to the office even more difficult. Thus, if your abortion procedure requires overnight treatment and you live far from Denver, we may ask that you secure a place to stay \u2013 family, friend, or local hotel - depending on your circumstances.\nSpecifically, we would like you to have a place to stay in Denver if:\nthe date is April 1 \u2013 Nov. 30 and home is more than 75 miles from Denver; or\nthe date is Dec. 1 \u2013 March 3, and if home is more than 50 miles from Denver.\nWe need reassurance that you have arranged for a driver, as we do not want anyone driving after IV sedation.\nWe would be happy to provide for you a list of affordable hotels very near the office.\nWhat to Expect with Healthy Futures for Women",

We\u2019ve introduced our WDT tweeter assembly from the AE1 Active, which creates far better in-room dispersion, as well as locating our slot ports to the rear for less midrange colouration and improved bass response. At the same time, the external design has been improved for a more elegant appearance and smaller footprint that should work well in a wide variety of surroundings. With higher quality fit and finish than ever before available from our entry level ranges, new colour and vinyl options and neat magnetic grilles the visual appeal is higher than ever.\nThe result is a stylish and more powerful range of speakers that embodies all of the qualities that Acoustic Energy is renowned for while taking advantage of everything that we have learned in our continuous process of development.",

        "raw_content": "The Benefits of Horseback Riding for Children\nBy Elizabeth Gerosa\nAs an HSS pediatric speech language pathologist, I\u2019m dedicated to adapting my approach to meet the needs of each child. Sometimes that means thinking outside of the box and bringing the treatment into non-traditional venues and treating without borders. Therefore, we have encouraged our patients to participate in our adaptive sports program.\nFor the second consecutive year, we brought a group of HSS pediatric patients to Endeavor Therapeutic Horsemanship through the Adaptive Sports Academy at The Lerner Children\u2019s Pavilion. Participants took part in horse education and got the chance to ride with the horses in a safe and supportive environment. Once considered too challenging for children with disabilities to participate in, horseback riding actually provides a wide range of benefits for cognitive, psychosocial, social, educational and physical function. Riding promotes the development of these independent yet interconnected systems and fosters personal growth, allowing a patient to achieve their maximum potential.\nAs my focus as a speech pathologist, I recognize the value of horseback riding and its impact on a child\u2019s speech and language development. The postural system, also known as our core, is the foundation for the 5 speech subsystems responsible for the production of intelligible speech. These systems include: respiration, phonation, articulation, resonance and prosody. Horseback riding places a child in the proper alignment, allowing for critical core muscle activation. Ultimately this results in the child\u2019s ability to support the production of words, phrases, and connected speech.\nI am excited to lead this endeavor for the second time and be a part of another memorable experience. It\u2019s truly a gift to facilitate the children\u2019s progress towards their maximum communication potential. Improved mobility gets us in the game, but it\u2019s communication that keeps us in the game of life.\nElizabeth Gerosa is an American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) certified Speech Language Pathologist. She is PROMPT trained and has a strong background in pediatric dysphagia for the patient who is medically compromised. Elizabeth is experienced with Applied Behavior Approach (ABA) with children with Autism and the Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) approach to feeding. She is Neuro-Development Treatment (NDT) Certified for the management of neuromotor disorders.\nElizabeth Gerosa\nTopics: Featured, Pediatrics, Rehabilitation and Fitness\nTags: adaptive sports, pediatrics\nSurf\u2019s Up with Adaptive Surfing!\nThe HSS Pediatric Rehabilitation Gift Guide\nFacebook Live: Pediatric Scoliosis Awareness",

        "title": "Team Focus: Koeman's Saints Flying High after Summer of Uncertainty | HuffPost UK",
        "raw_content": "Team Focus: Koeman's Saints Flying High after Summer of Uncertainty\nMajor squad overhauls usually have an adverse effect on the team - take Spurs' season in the wake of Bale's multi-million pound move to Real Madrid - but Koeman has taken everything in his stride and built a side capable of matching Pochettino's from last season.\nFootball fans are a pessimistic bunch when they see fit. The gutting of Southampton over the summer had many connoisseurs of the beautiful game insistent that the south coast club would sink quicker than a stone in the Solent after losing manager Mauricio Pochettino to Tottenham. Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana, Luke Shaw, Calum Chambers and Dejan Lovren then followed the Argentine out of the St. Mary's exit door to exacerbate matters.\nPochettino's replacement, Ronald Koeman, some people game him a snowballs chance in hell at keeping Saints aloft this term, despite bringing in ample replacements and convincing midfield lynchpin Morgan Schneiderlin to remain at the club. Supporters, as usual, were quick to jump the gun, not realising that Koeman had endured a similar situation with his previous club.\nWhen he took over the reins at Feyenoord in 2011, key players were sold and no money was invested back into the team. Koeman took the Rotterdammers from 10th to 2nd in his first season in charge of the Eredivisie side, with youth team products central to their success. Bruno Martins Indi, Stefan de Vrij and Jordy Clasie all became household names under the watchful eye of Koeman, which will have appealed to the Saints hierarchy as they look to unearth the next Gareth Bale, Theo Walcott or Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.\nWith the funds accumulated from the aforementioned sales, Koeman had the opportunity to build a team in his image. In came Graziano Pell\u00e8, a striker he managed for two of his three seasons at the Feyenoord helm, Du\u0161an Tadi\u0107, a player Koeman knew from his time in the Eredivisie, and Shane Long, amongst others, as the Dutch manager looked to better Saints' 8th placed finish last term.\nA 2-1 defeat at Liverpool on the opening weekend of the season was enough to encourage some hope but still seemed to set the tone for what could be a tough campaign for Southampton. However, Saints have since gone from strength-to-strength in the Premier League, winning 3 of their last 4 matches. Such form has lifted the club to second in England's top tier, just three points off table toppers and the only undefeated team in the league, Chelsea. Saints' WhoScored rating (7.10) is bettered only by Chelsea (7.18) and while it's an admittedly small sample size, Koeman's squad rating is significantly better than Pochettino's last season (6.91).\nThe notable difference between the two sides under each manager is, of course, the high pressing game adopted by Pochettino. The Argentine demanded his players harass the opposition deep in their own half in order to win possession in attacking areas. This helped Saints enjoy the most possession (58.6%) in the Premier League last season, a figure that has dropped this term (54.2%) as Koeman has his players sit a little deeper.\nSaints are averaging more tackles (25.2) and interceptions per game (15.4) this season, an increase on averages of 21.2 and 13.8. This figure was always going to rise due the team seeing less of the ball. However, the increase suggests that Saints are quick to hassle the opposition when they encroach on their defensive third and rather than actively go in hunt of the ball, they're leting the opposition come to them before making a move.\nUnsurprisingly, seeing less of the ball means Saints this season are averaging fewer shots per game (12) than last season (14.1), presumably as the team are winning the ball in deeper positions, allowing the opposition to regroup when they do lose the ball. Furthermore, as Koeman's side are not pressing as high up the pitch as they were last season, there is less of a chance for Saints to spring a surprise attack, which is why this figure is lower.\nThis reluctance to press the opposition in attacking areas quite so much, however, could be as a result of the upheaval in personnel over the summer. Pochettino had the benefit of working with players who had played together for a number of years prior to his appointment in January 2013. The likes of Lallana, Lambert and Schneiderlin knew one another's game, the runs they would and wouldn't make and the passes they would play from their time at the club, which ultimately benefitted Pochettino.\nIt was simply a case of injecting urgency in order for the team to adhere to his plans. In the second half of the 2012/13 season, they showed glimpses of what was to come the following campaign and with no major outgoings, it was little surprise Pochettino's game plan was so effective in his one and only full campaign at St. Mary's. Koeman's side may bare more of a resemblance to Pochettino's once the players become accustomed to each other, but at the time of writing, the system in place is working just fine.\nWith nine goals scored, just the three conceded, 10 points from 15 and a recent Capital One Cup win at Arsenal, Saints are performing above the expectations of the neutrals, who gave them little hope of replicating last season's exploits this time around. Big summer signings Pell\u00e8 and Tadi\u0107 have hit the ground running, while Schneiderlin has continued the fine form that saw him courted by Spurs prior to their move for Benjamin Stambouli, and Koeman deserves credit for their flying start to the campaign.\nWhether they can maintain this form remains to be seen, but for the time being life is rosy on the south coast, all the more so considering Pochettino's Spurs sit three points and seven places below them in the table. Major squad overhauls usually have an adverse effect on the team - take Spurs' season in the wake of Bale's multi-million pound move to Real Madrid - but Koeman has taken everything in his stride and built a side capable of matching Pochettino's from last season.\nAll statistics courtesy of WhoScored.com\nMORE: Premier League Mauricio Pochettino Ronald Koeman southampton football Sport",

        "raw_content": "Liam Fox Branded 'Abject Failure' Over Lack Of Pre-Brexit Trade Deals\nJust six of the 40 promised agreements are 'on track' for March 29.\nCabinet minister Liam Fox was accused of \u201cabject failure\u201d after it emerged just six of the 40 trade deals he promised will actually be signed in time for Brexit.\nThe trade secretary, who once said a free trade agreement with the EU would be the \u201ceasiest in human history\u201d, had vowed to \u201croll over\u201d 40 EU deals with 70 countries before Britain breaks from the bloc on March 29.\nBut, according to a document leaked to The Sun, Fox has secured just a handful and is now asking countries to sign non-binding \u201cletters of understanding\u201d instead.\nDuring an urgent question in the Commons on the issue, tabled by shadow trade secretary Barry Gardiner, Fox said many of the deal would go \u201cdown to the wire\u201d.\nThe leaked document shows four trade deals in a \u2018green column\u2019 already agreed, with Switzerland, Chile, an Eastern and Southern African bloc, and the Faroe Islands.\nDeals with Israel and the Palestinian Authority were marked as \u2018on track\u2019.\nAmber warnings, signifying \u2018deliverability by March 29 off-track\u2019 were given to nine countries, including South Korea and Canada.\nThose with no chance of being delivered \u2013 or \u2018significantly off-track\u2019 \u2013 were given red and black warnings, including those planned with Japan, Turkey and Mexico.\nIt comes as Fox faced criticism for refusing to rule out a move to zero tariffs on imported goods under a no-deal Brexit.\nLabour says the move, which would give foreign competitors unprecedented access to UK markets, would give countries no incentive to sign a trade deal with the UK.\nFormer party leadership candidate Owen Smith, who supports the People\u2019s Vote campaign for a second referendum, said: \u201cToday\u2019s revelations are not surprising \u2013 they are just the latest sign of the government\u2019s abject failure to deliver on the promises made for Brexit.\n\u201cLiam Fox and other leading advocates of Brexit promised a \u2018Global Britain\u2019 vision for the future if people voted to leave the EU, but the reality is very different \u2013 not only is our trade relationship with our largest trading partner, Europe, now in jeopardy, but Brexit is also damaging our trade with non-EU countries as well.\u201d\nThe powerful US department of trade, meanwhile, is consulting on how to approach negotiations, with lobbyists demanding huge concessions on food standards and handing foreign firms the ability to sue the British state.\nThe Department for Trade has not denied the story, and said: \u201cThis does not reflect the whole picture: in 2018, around 12% of UK trade took place under EU Trade Agreements in force.\n\u201cWe have already signed a number of agreements including with Switzerland, the largest of these. We continue to work to replicate as many of these as possible, until exit day, to ensure the maximum continuity of UK trade.\n\u201cOf course, the best way to ensure that all existing agreements continue to apply is to pass the Withdrawal Agreement.\u201d\nLiam Fox Rushing Through Brexit Trade Deals Would Mean Bypassing Democracy\nMORE: news brexit Politics and Government news uk politics liam fox Trade agreement",

        "raw_content": "Australia's First Dedicated Egg Freezing Clinic Opens In Sydney\nAnd the cost of the service has been radically reduced.\nNot an insurance policy, but still a viable option.\nWhen it comes to fertility, you can't fight the facts. A woman's egg supply starts to deteriorate after she turns 30, and takes an even sharper turn after 35.\nBut there are many Australian women who don't feel they are ready to start a family at that age, or perhaps there have been circumstances which have forced them to put their baby-making plans on hold.\nIt's a situation that is becoming increasingly common across the nation and, as such, more and more women are electing to freeze their eggs. In fact, according to the private data of leading fertility specialist Genea Australia, there has been a five-fold increase in patients wishing to freeze eggs in the past three years.\nAs a result, the organisation has today opened the doors to Genea Horizon, Australia's first dedicated egg freezing clinic.\nDr Devora Lieberman, Genea Horizon fertility specialist, said the decision to open the Sydney-based clinic came about not only from increased demand, but an understanding that women who choose to freeze their eggs require different care to those women and couples undergoing IVF treatment.\nShe also said the ability to do everything in-house has helped reduce treatment costs.\n\"We have been freezing eggs through our regular IVF clinics for some time now, but we have discovered women who are coming to freeze their eggs are quite different than people coming to have a baby right now,\" Lieberman told HuffPost Australia.\n\"They have different needs and different desires, and certainly don't need to be in the same place as the women who are trying to get pregnant now.\nEgg freezing, otherwise known as 'oocyte cryopreservation', is a process by which a woman's eggs are extracted, frozen and stored to preserve reproductive potential.\n\"We think they need different messages, different attention, and we have been able to carve out space in our building where we can look out for people on that journey.\n\"As part of that, we have been able to dramatically reduce the cost. Economies of scale and the ability to do everything in-house, plus very streamlined protocols, have seen us able to do that.\"\nAnd the cost is important, because for many women, it's can be the final barrier that prevents them from seeking treatment. In fact, in recognition of this issue, Monash IVF fertility clinic also chose to slash their prices in October last year.\n\"I would discuss egg freezing with my patients and, while they thought it might be a good thing to do, when I told them it cost $10,000, they changed their minds,\" Monash IVF clinical director Dr Lynn Burmeister told The Herald Sun at the time.\n\"Most women, aged 33-34, can't afford it and the cost turns them off. As a female, I just thought it was too expensive and it doesn't need to cost that much.\"\nIt is not an insurance policy about having a baby in the future, it's about not having any regrets.\nLieberman concurred, telling HuffPost Australia, \"In terms of the stimulation protocols we run, there's very, very few medical risks. It's just about the money really.\n\"And now we can offer the [service] at the price of the cost of a holiday, really. The cost of an overseas holiday as opposed to a small car. We are trying to make it more accessible. For me, really, it has always come down to the cost.\"\nAs for whether egg freezing is right for you, it obviously depends on the situation, but Lieberman warns against thinking of the process as a type of insurance.\n\"It is not an insurance policy about having a baby in the future, it's about not having any regrets,\" she said.\nCertain career choices may result in a woman wanting to have children later in life.\n\"If you come back in five years time and use your eggs and they don't work, you'll feel 'at least I did everything I could'. Though if you're more inclined to think 'well that was a waste of time and money', then it's probably not for you.\n\"A lot of our messaging isn't about having a baby in the future, it's about taking control of your life now.\n\"Just thinking about some of the women I have worked with, one is 35 and her seven-year relationship just fell apart. Another woman is 32 and a barrister, and is going to be head down bum up working on her career for the next couple of years.\n\"Women end up in unexpected situations and that's what this [elected] service is for.\"\nTo find out more about the process of egg freezing, head here.\nWhat Freezing Your Eggs Is Really Like (For Both Singles And Couples)\nMORE: No Two Women no-two-women",

        "raw_content": "Brad Bailey, Contributor\nTransgender Battles In Deep-Red Arkansas\nVideo Produced by Khaled Sayed and Narration by Brad Bailey\nOn the surface, Fayetteville looks like most other midsize Southern cities- dotted with strip malls, churches, gas stations, and religious billboards. Bentonville, not too far away, is the headquarters for Walmart, which lends to a business and corporate-like culture in certain areas. It\u2019s also a college town, hosting one of the six campuses of the University of Arkansas system. These two entities make the town a liberalized oasis in a red state, but it still tends to have a large conservative element.\nAs my driver took me from the airport we went through windy two-lane roads to get to downtown, and I told her there was a protest in town the next day for transgender rights. She went into a quick discussion about how we shouldn\u2019t change bathroom laws just to accommodate transgenders\u2015 numbers weren\u2019t enough, she said, to justify changing laws to suit a \u201cminority.\u201d After I mentioned to her that \u201ctyranny from the majority\u201d is seen as a fundamental right for some people, she agreed that it was important to have a civil discourse on the issue.\nWhen I met transgender activist Teri Wright she was in the midst of planning the protest for the next day. She was confident, and the organizers of the campus gay group, PRIDE, had come together to draft letters to sway local and state officials and to hash out the protest details.\nTeri is originally from the local area,and although Arkansas is a conservative state, she and her wife Katie decided to stay there and make their lives on their farm. She\u2019s also a veteran, and served her country overseas. When we sat down to talk, she told me of her personal struggle to discover her identity, a process that took years. When she finally summoned to courage to transition from male to female a few years ago, with the support of Katie, she started making plans.\nTeri and Katie had made the grueling 10 hour round trip to Dallas to meet with a surgeon. Then, on January 19, all of that turned upside down. She received an email from the University of Arkansas health care system informing her that they were suspending \u201cgender dysphoria coverage\u201d.\nIn May of last year, the Office of Civil Rights for the Department of Health and Human Services banned discrimination on the basis of gender identity for insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act. Then on the last day of 2016, a federal judge from the District Court for the Northern District of Texas issued an injunction on this order, allowing for employers to opt out of health care coverage for issues relating to gender identity. A a result, the University of Arkansas, sent an email system wide detailing their plans to not cover the procedure.\nOn the the morning of the rally, the participants gathered at the edge of downtown. They marched down Dickson Street, the hub of city, and received significant attention from local people shopping and having brunch. Many cars honked in solidarity with only a couple of instances of passerbys in cars hurling a quick epithet. It was a peaceful yet vocal event, and Teri was thrilled with the turnout. In cities like Fayetteville, the impact of events like this march is to raise awareness to local individuals that these issues aren\u2019t just for far away New York or Chicago.\nThis is especially important in the wake of recent laws that have crept up on the local and state level. Just last month, the Arkansas Supreme Court struck down a local ordinance protecting LGBT residents from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. Recently, another law, House Bill 1894 is finding its way through the legislature, which would prohibit Arkansans from altering their birth certificates to amend their gender. Finally, Arkansas Physical Privacy and Safety Act, is a version of the controversial bathroom law, restricting access to individuals whose gender matches the sign on the entrance to the facility.\nTeri\u2019s situation illustrates the challenges many transgender individuals face nationwide, especially in red states far away from the liberal coasts. After having finally arrived a mental and physical level of comfort to to undergo this surgery- a process that took years- she is now forced with the choice of staying at home to fight for coverage, or leaving her native Arkansas and traveling away from her wife just to find a place that will assist her. Many transgender individuals, particularly those of color, have even fewer options, and when coupled with violence and stigma in certain parts of the country, the obstacles appear daunting.\nAs I was leaving Arkansas, I thought about an older woman who I met briefly in the protest. She told me that she had participated in protests during the 1960\u2019s, when Arkansas was ground zero for racial desegregation battles across the country. She also said that, after over 50 years of civil rights challenges and some successes, that she thought she was \u201cdone having to protest\u201d. She held up a sign, however, that perfectly encapsulates the feeling of her and many others that day: \u201cLove Wins.\u201d\nPhoto by Brad Bailey\nKhaled Sayed also contributing to this report\nU.S. News Civil Rights Trans Arkansas Supreme Court University Of Arkansas",

        "raw_content": "Creating content is nothing new in the digital marketing world. Still, right now content is more important than it has ever been before. Here\u2019s why content is king.\nCreating content is nothing new in the digital marketing world. Still, right now content is more important than it has ever been before. Content is king. If you take an in-depth look at any successful digital marketing strategy content plays a central role in it. Content is a major element that reaps massive rewards for those who can do it well. The important thing to remember is that there is not one content strategy that works universally. Content needs to be creative, entertaining, useful, and interesting to your viewers, followers, etc. Content is everything from text to videos to images to podcasts and more. Let\u2019s see why content is the king of digital marketing.\nIt Does Wonders for SEO\nHaving quality, original content on your websites is great for your SEO efforts for a number of reasons. One, content that is created and published regularly between 300 and 500 words, has internal links to other relevant content, and also has naturally placed keywords helps a website rank organically on search engine result returns. The higher you rank in the search engine results the more your brand gets exposed to industry professionals and consumers alike. Also, the consistent publication of high-quality content creates a voice of authority for your brand as well as a back log of links to other content.\nEncourages and Boosts Engagement\nGood content in any medium encourages viewers of said content to engage with the brand whether or not they realize they are doing so. If you have good content that enriches the lives of viewers either through entertainment, knowledge, etc they might take the time to comment or share your content. Sharing your content on social media platforms is a great way for you to encourage consumer engagement with your brand. It also makes it very easy for people to share your content, which ultimately means that you can reach more people.\nNew Leads and Sales\nAs we discussed earlier good content creates a voice of authority for your brand. If you are working in a saturated market the more people who are exposed to your brand and align that exposure with expertise in a field, the more leads you are going to generate and as a result the more sales you will make. Good content is not generally salesly. Content that is salesly is hard for people to engage with on an authentic level. Good enriching content helps bring people from consumers to customers and eventually to brand advocates. The more people you can get to talk about you in a positive way organically, the better your sales efforts are going to be.\nAdds Value to Your Brand\nIf you can create content that teaches people something new, or entertains them for a few minutes you are creating something valuable. It is hard to measure the ROI of these types of efforts, but the relationship between the brand and the customer is something that transcends monetary value. Creating a positive relationship with your audience and customers will create a lot more value for your brand and while you may not be able to accurately gauge the monetary results it will be a positive thing for your business efforts.\nWhen it comes to the Internet and digital marketing traffic is very important. If you have great, original content on your site or blog or social media page, you are going to have more people visiting your sites and the people who do visit are going to spend more time there.\nPlease contact us to learn more about digital marketing and what it takes to create great, original content. Don\u2019t forget that content is king!",

It was also claimed that incoming manager Louis van Gaal made a personal call to the midfielder in a futile effort to convince him.\nGuarin has been in impressive form for Inter in Italy\\'s Serie A and has been shortlisted as a second option. The 27-year-old midfielder currently on World Cup duty with Columbia finished with 4 goals and 6 assists in 32 games in the league last season.\nHe was linked with a move to the Premier League in January as Chelsea, along with the former United manager David Moyes was keen on bringing him to England. However, the Italian club seemed to have convinced Guarin that his future lies at the San Siro when he signed a new three-year contract keeping him in Milan till 2017.\n\\\"I\\'m delighted, this is another dream come true for me and I\\'m over the moon. I\\'ve been here for over two years and it\\'s been a very positive experience. Every day that passes allows me to earn even more experience and to add another three years of this experience is very positive,\\\" Guarin said.\nInter, who are also on the lookout for new midfielders, are reportedly willing to let the Colombian leave for the right price. United could get their man for a price in the region of \u00a312m.\nHowever, the length of the Colombian\\'s contract will give Inter the upper hand when it comes to negotiating a transfer with any potential new suitors.\nWith the current United midfielders not up to the mark and Ryan Giggs having retired, the former Barcelona and Bayern manager would be looking at adding one or possibly two new midfielders to the side.\nChelsea Ready to Offer Lucrative Offer for United and Real Madrid Target Toni Kroos\nManchester United Target Move in Signing Ajax Star Daley Blind\nManchester United Prepare Shock Move for Arsenal Skipper Thomas Vermaelen\nRelated topics : Manchester United FC Louis van Gaal Bayern Munich",

However, at the same time, whenever a door is opened, the odor may cause strong reactions among the informants.\nSome informants describe that doors on cabinets in general are good when it comes to making the store feel less cold.

        "raw_content": "How to Protect Your Business in Divorce\nWithout a premarital agreement, your business could be at stake in a divorce. Here's how to minimize that risk.\nRosanne DeTorres, Esq., is an author and managing partner of DeTorres & DeGeorge, a N.J.-based family law firm. As a divorce attorney with 29 years of experience, we asked Rosanne to share how to best protect your business during a divorce. Here's what she had to say.\nAccording to research published in the New York Times, the U.S. divorce rate peaked at about 40 percent in the 1970s and early 1980s but has since steadily declined. While it's difficult to calculate an exact overall divorce rate due to contributing factors including age at marriage, race, socioeconomic level and religion, it's nice to know that if current trends continue, roughly 66 percent of couples will never have to endure the anguish of divorce.\nBut that leaves 34 percent who will. Divorce isn't something we anticipate when we fall in love, get engaged and marry. As entrepreneurs, however, it is something for which we should plan.\nThough it's not always obvious, your assets, income and business interests are at risk during a divorce. Protecting these assets is an important step in the divorce process. If mistakes are made, it could result in serious financial and personal consequences.\nIf you own a business, protect your interest from the outset with a premarital agreement. Spell out your pre-existing business assets and have your spouse waive any claim in the future, regardless of the business's appreciation in value. If you are already in the process of divorce and did not execute a premarital agreement, or if you started your business during the marriage, then the business may be in play. An experienced family law advisor can develop strategies to minimize your exposure.\nStart by assessing the level of your spouse's involvement in your business. A spouse who lacks involvement has a reduced claim to the business value. It is best if your spouse is not an employee, does not contribute to the business's management, and does not provide ideas or business innovation advice. If you are still in the pre-divorce stage, start to document your spouse's lack of involvement in your business.\nReview your options for establishing a buy-sell agreement, corporation, LLC, or a living trust to restrict ownership and ownership transfer. If you have business partners, revise your partnership agreement to require that the other partners have the option to buy out the interests of the divorcing partner and his or her spouse. You may still have to compensate your spouse for his or her share of your business's value, but this way you can prevent your spouse from becoming part owner. Yes, that can happen.\nEven if you haven't established any legal protection to secure your business interests, it helps if you have carefully established, funded, and managed your business with separate assets. Avoid co-mingling business assets with personal assets and business accounts with personal accounts. Pay yourself a market-rate salary. When you reinvest all or most of the business revenue back into the business, your spouse may claim he or she deserves the benefit of the appreciation in value.\nIf a business is at issue in the divorce, then a value must be placed on the business. The simplest and cheapest way to establish business value would be to agree on a number you both can live with. If you cannot agree on an arbitrary value, the next best cost-effective method is to ask the company accountant to determine the \"book value\" of the business.\nBook value is the accounting value of the business, which usually does not reflect the true market value. The difference between market value and book value can depend on factors such as the specific industry, the nature of a company's assets and liabilities, and the company's specific attributes. If you want to assess the business's market value, you have to hire a forensic accountant. Choose an expert who can minimize the value of the business while conducting an evaluation based on standard guidelines.\nOnce value is agreed upon, consider how to distribute it to your spouse\u2015by cash payment, by an offset against other assets you will waive, or with installment payments.\nNow let's look at the flipside. What if your spouse owns a business and you believe you should receive a share of that business's value? The advice is the same, but in reverse. Carefully document all the work, ideas and resources you contributed to the business. You may have done work for the business without drawing a paycheck, or engaged in social activities to woo clients, worked the register, created marketing materials, managed social media accounts, performed bookkeeping and recordkeeping, or made other contributions. Document everything you have done to help the business.\nIf you're an entrepreneur who's considering--or in the midst of--a divorce, your business can generate complicated legal issues. Choose a family law specialist with a background in business transactions to assure that your business is properly evaluated and distributed.",

Separately, Johnson created the enduring children's classic Harold and the Purple Crayon and the groundbreaking comic strip Barnaby. Krauss wrote over a dozen children's books illustrated by others, and pioneered the use of spontaneous, loose-tongued kids in children's literature. Together, Johnson and Krauss's style--whimsical writing, clear and minimalist drawing, and a child's point-of-view--is among the most revered and influential in children's literature and cartooning, inspiring the work of Maurice Sendak, Charles M. Schulz, Chris Van Allsburg, and Jon Scieszka.\nThis critical biography examines their lives and careers, including their separate achievements when not collaborating. Using correspondence, sketches, contemporary newspaper and magazine accounts, archived and personal interviews, author Philip Nel draws a compelling portrait of a couple whose output encompassed children's literature, comics, graphic design, and the fine arts. Their mentorship of now-famous illustrator Maurice Sendak (Where the Wild Things Are) is examined at length, as is the couple's appeal to adult contemporaries such as Duke Ellington and Dorothy Parker. Defiantly leftist in an era of McCarthyism and Cold War paranoia, Johnson and Krauss risked collaborations that often contained subtly rendered liberal themes. Indeed, they were under FBI surveillance for years. Their legacy of considerable success invites readers to dream and to imagine, drawing paths that take them anywhere they want to go.",

        "raw_content": "Details of a 'Toxic' Environment\nExperts say pressure to succeed in big-time football is behind reports of thrown weights, repeated verbal abuse and more at Maryland. Did it take a student's death to capture attention?\nDJ Durkin, who was put on leave last week by the University of Maryland\nFour years ago, the University of Maryland at College Park officially joined the NCAA's prestigious and affluent Big Ten Conference, departing from its place in the Atlantic Coast Conference.\nWith the move came criticism that the institution was alienating its fan base by leaving behind a tradition-rich relationship with the ACC. Supporters were worried that the programs that would generate the most revenue -- men\u2019s basketball and football -- would struggle competitively. That in turn created concerns among faculty members and that coaches would feel intense pressure to do whatever was needed to succeed.\nToday, Maryland is the subject of a scandal alleging that coaches were exceptionally abusive toward players -- stemming, perhaps, from that need to win, experts said in interviews with Inside Higher Ed.\nESPN detailed in a report Friday a \u201ctoxic\u201d environment for Maryland football players, in which they would have small weights hurled at them and were verbally put down. In one case, a player said he vomited after the coaching staff forced him to overeat.\nMost troubling in the ESPN reporting were details of a football player\u2019s death in June, reportedly from heatstroke after a team workout in which his temperature reached at least 106 degrees. The outlet attempted to interview head football coach, DJ Durkin, and three other coaching staffers who were at the heart of the accusations, but were unsuccessful.\n\u201cAfter the guy died a few months ago, you would think the university administration would be all over this damn program and making sure this never happened again,\u201d said Andrew Zimbalist, a sports economist and professor at Smith College. \u201cTo me, that is a really damning outcome -- that this has continued, and that the coaches have been able to get away with this. It\u2019s like turning Bill Cosby loose at a nightclub. You just shouldn\u2019t do it.\u201d\nDetails leaked out in the Maryland case before the university acted. The institution kept Durkin, Rick Court, the football team\u2019s strength and conditioning coach, athletics trainer Wes Robinson and Steve Nordwall, an assistant athletics director, in their jobs until the ESPN story aired the issues.\nESPN, citing current and former players and employees, some anonymously, reported that Durkin and Court were particularly demeaning and would often verbally abuse players. One former staffer recalled Court knocking a plate of food out of a player\u2019s hands as the player was rushing from a meal to get to a team meeting. Once an injured player was forced to do a tug-of-war competition with the entire defensive back unit until he passed out.\nA former offensive lineman who was struggling with his weight was forced to eat candy bars as a form of humiliation and told ESPN that the coaching staff made him eat plates of food in front of them, sometimes until he vomited.\nESPN also described the death of Jordan McNair, the 19-year-old, 6-foot, 4-inch, 325-pound redshirt freshman who died after collapsing at a practice May 29. After sprint workouts, McNair was unable to control his breath, which led to a seizure, various news media reported. He died in the hospital 15 days later, on June 13.\nThough Maryland is perhaps the most severe case in recent history of an alleged abusive culture, there are many more examples -- even within the Big Ten. Most prominently, Mike Rice, the former head men's basketball coach at Rutgers University, was fired in 2013 after a video of him surfaced calling players \"faggots\" and throwing basketballs at them. In February, the fiery men's basketball coach at Colorado State University, Larry Eustachy, resigned after the institution started investigating the program's \"climate.\" The former athletics director had recommended Eustachy be fired several years prior to that, but the university president at the time overruled him, despite an investigation that found that Eustachy had emotionally abused his players and assistant coaches.\nAt Maryland, the investigation into McNair's death started with the help of an outside consultant, but ESPN reported that interviews with players were brief and conducted near Durkin\u2019s office. It was easy for him, then, to figure out who had signed up to speak with the lawyer Maryland hired, even though the interviews were supposed to be anonymous.\nEven if an athlete dies, it is unusual to put staffers on leave, and so Maryland was not outside the norm for not immediately doing so with Durkin, said Christian Dennie, a lawyer and partner at the Texas-based Barlow Garsek and Simon, who specializes in sports law cases. Only when there is the potential for liability would someone be placed on leave, Dennie said.\n\"Or in the alternative, you are attempting to remove someone influential from being influential over other people in the investigation -- trying to separate them to get the true and honest facts of the case,\" Dennie said.\nMaryland likely did not suspend or fire Durkin outright after the ESPN story because it did not want to give the appearance of being unfair to him, Michael McCann, director of the Sports and Entertainment Law Institute at the University of New Hampshire, noted in a Sports Illustrated column. In case the institution eventually did terminate Durkin, administrators would not want him to say that they did so unlawfully, McCann wrote. Firing him without cause would also cost the university a lot of money, McCann indicated.\nDurkin\u2019s type of behavior is not isolated, though it certainly is extreme, said Kenneth L. Shropshire, chief executive of the Global Sport Institute at Arizona State University. He said that even back in the early 1970s, when he was a football player at Stanford University, coaches would curse and use inappropriate language to the team -- a model of intimidation and dominance, testing players\u2019 masculinity, seems to be the norm, Shropshire said.\nDurkin was hired away from the University of Michigan, where he worked as the defensive coordinator under Jim Harbaugh. Durkin also worked with Urban Meyer at Ohio State University. Meyer was also recently put on leave while the university investigates allegations that one of Meyer's former assistant coaches, Zach Smith, abused his wife, and that Meyer potentially knew about it. Durkin has reportedly tried to put his stamp on the Maryland program and deliberately tried to schedule practices during some of the hottest days, news media have reported.\nMaryland's athletics director, Damon Evans, is also relatively new in his position -- and was a controversial pick. Before he left his job as athletics director at University of Georgia in 2010, he was arrested for drunk driving and told police, \"I am not trying to bribe you, but I am the athletic director of the University of Georgia.\"\nThe coaches at Maryland were likely pressured to win because of the institution\u2019s fairly recent entry into the Big Ten, Smith College's Zimbalist said. While theoretically the Big Ten\u2019s TV contracts would yield Maryland more money, if the football team constantly loses games to powerhouses in the conference such as Ohio State University and the University of Michigan, fans and donors would be turned off, he said.\nCreating a credible team would ensure the coaches stayed longer, and eventually likely lead to a better offer from another institution, Zimbalist said.\n\u201cOverwhelmingly, there are incentives to win,\u201d he said. \u201cI think that\u2019s what\u2019s going on.\u201d\nA Day Later, Football Coach Out at Maryland\nOne day after reinstatement, Maryland's head football coach fired\nUniversity of Maryland did not follow procedures before football player's death",

        "raw_content": "Are You Being Good Today?\nWell, are you? Or are your emotions running away with you? Are you upset about something? Are you super busy and just can\u2019t seem to find the time to really slow down? Or are you simply having a splendid day? The reason why I\u2019m asking you all of these questions are because in spite of it all, no matter how we feel or what we\u2019ve got scheduled on our loaded calendars today, God still requires that we be good to others around us. The reason being is simply because we are called to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Furthermore, one great and spectacular way to accomplish this great mission is by displaying His amazing character trait called \u201cgoodness\u201d.\nIt\u2019s actually a delicious fruit of the Spirit. Galations 5:22-23 says so -\u201cBut the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.\u201d There you have it! There is no law against sharing the goodness of God. That\u2019s what \u201cagainst such there is no law\u201d means. So instead of the freedom of speech method here, we have the freedom of action! Yay! Goodness\u2026so let\u2019s do it (without murmuring and complaining that we have to stop whatever we\u2019re doing to do something for someone else).\nI know this to be true, because just today (Saturday \u2013 at the time of writing this), I had my morning all planned out. I was going to hit the coffee pot (just for me on this particular morning\u2026my husband doesn\u2019t drink coffee anyway), and get ready to sit down to write my blog for this week. However, God knew that there were a few other women who were going to be in need of a fresh hot cup of coffee as well. So lo and behold, as I dropped my daughter off to her little girlie outing, some of the women were asking for \u201ccoffee\u201d. Yet, in spite of the work that I knew that was before me, I willingly scurried off and went to brew another pot. And not only did I brew another pot, but I brought all the trimmings so they could season it to their taste (not my own).\nNow when I walked back through the door, the women were elated! Yet, I made sure that I gave God genuine praise by saying openly, \u201cPraise the Lord!\u201d God knew what these ladies needed and they expressed that in their own way. And it was indeed a pleasure serving them\u2026However, it\u2019s so important to note here that when we do good deeds for people, it\u2019s not for our glory or self-praise; but for others to see that God loves them and is being good to them. Matthew 5:16 says, \u201cIn the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.\u201d\nSo you see, bringing these sweet women coffee was truly an expression of God\u2019s goodness\u2026not my own. The Bible clearly says that, \u201cNo flesh shall glory in His presence.\u201d (1 Corinthians 1:29) Meaning, don\u2019t try to take credit or boast for what you\u2019ve done. 1 Corinthians 1:31 goes on to say, \u201cThe person who wishes to boast should boast only of what the Lord has done.\u201d So instead, we should simply thank Him for the opportunity, make our boast in the Lord, and give Him all the glory. Yes, that takes a humbling of our pride\u2026but it\u2019s so worth it! (Read Proverbs 29:23)\nI believe God wants to use many of us as vessels and instruments for greater use for His service in these latter times, if we\u2019re willing and obedient. And not only that, but the Lord longs to be gracious to us. He wants to bless us in ways that are far beyond our imagination and expectations as we make it our business to bless others when He quickens us. Keeping in mind, we shouldn\u2019t be doing good deeds to get things from God. I need to make that very clear, because that wouldn\u2019t be right at all. But when we do it with the right motive, timing, and out of a willing heart of obedience unto the Lord, that\u2019s when it becomes an added benefit to us in God\u2019s due time! The Bible says in Isaiah 1:19, \u201cIf ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.\u201d Yum!\nOn that note\u2026let me close by saying this. For me, it was serving coffee, for you it may be giving someone a ride, buying a gift to brighten someone\u2019s day, singing a song, giving a word of encouragement, helping to complete an assignment, or ministering a dance. Whatever the case, it\u2019s a form of God\u2019s amazing character of goodness being displayed through you to others. Remember, Jesus didn\u2019t come to be served, He came to serve. So while none of us are actually \u201cgood\u201d as Jesus said in Mark 10:18\u2026we are called to share the goodness of God by being a blessing to those around us, so that they can praise our Father in heaven.\nOh WAIT! Guess what? I have to share this! Wow! My hubby just walked in the room as I was writing this actual blog post and told me that someone has blessed us with a beautiful bedroom set for our newly built home! YAY! Praise the Lord of heaven! Thank YOU for Your BENEFITS! And bless the givers in return Lord for doing a good deed. God is soooo GOOD! Wow\u2026that was quick! Hey, have a good day today guys, and don\u2019t forget to be a blessing! \ud83d\ude00\nRemember Jesus is coming back soon. Let\u2019s get ready from the Inside Out.\nJanie Fox April 1, 2013 at 1:30 pm\t- Reply\nYou, and your family, are a blessing in my life! Love ya, Court!\nInside Out with Courtnaye April 1, 2013 at 4:02 pm\t- Reply\nAww! You\u2019re too sweet Janie! Thanks much, and you are a blessing to us as well. Thanks again for checking out my post today, and making Inside Out a part of your Monday Morning routine! I love you back! Have a gooooood day!\n\"Surviving the Storm Blog\" April 1, 2013 at 3:12 pm\t- Reply\nYou are very right about giving God glory whenever we do good. There are periods of time where I can say; \u201cHey, I been doing pretty good\u201d. But, it never fails when I feel like this, pride peaks its nasty little head and tries to get me to steal God\u2019s glory. Thank God for his mercy, because I confess it and fall into the loving arms of my merciful Father.\nPraise the Lord! And well said! Yes, you\u2019re right that pride does taste nasty. You can almost sense it in you rising up and before you know it, you\u2019re like \u2013 \u201cDid I just say that?!\u201d YUCK! It\u2019s such a quick check in your spirit, if you\u2019re really wanting to do right in His sight. God\u2019s pretty serious about His glory. We must not forget about Satan. Let\u2019s learn from him. Amen! Thanks again for your response! Until next time\u2026Be good today! \ud83d\ude09",

        "title": "What Hedge Funds Think About EPR Properties (EPR) - Insider Monkey",
        "raw_content": "What Hedge Funds Think About EPR Properties (EPR)\nIf you were to ask many of your fellow readers, hedge funds are perceived as bloated, outdated financial vehicles of an era lost to time. Although there are more than 8,000 hedge funds trading in present day, Insider Monkey focuses on the leaders of this group, about 525 funds. It is assumed that this group oversees the majority of the hedge fund industry\u2019s total assets, and by tracking their highest quality picks, we\u2019ve formulated a few investment strategies that have historically beaten the market. Our small-cap hedge fund strategy outstripped the S&P 500 index by 18 percentage points per annum for a decade in our back tests, and since we\u2019ve started sharing our picks with our subscribers at the end of August 2012, we have outclassed the S&P 500 index by 33 percentage points in 11 months (explore the details and some picks here).\nJust as crucial, optimistic insider trading activity is a second way to look at the investments you\u2019re interested in. There are plenty of incentives for an upper level exec to drop shares of his or her company, but only one, very simple reason why they would initiate a purchase. Several academic studies have demonstrated the market-beating potential of this tactic if you understand where to look (learn more here).\nFurthermore, it\u2019s important to examine the latest info about EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR).\nHow are hedge funds trading EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR)?\nAt the end of the second quarter, a total of 16 of the hedge funds we track were long in this stock, a change of 23% from the previous quarter. With hedgies\u2019 positions undergoing their usual ebb and flow, there exists a few noteworthy hedge fund managers who were boosting their stakes considerably.\nAccording to our 13F database, Jeffrey Furber\u2019s AEW Capital Management had the most valuable position in EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR), worth close to $68 million, comprising 1.8% of its total 13F portfolio. Sitting at the No. 2 spot is J. Alan Reid, Jr. of Forward Management, with a $20.7 million position; 1.7% of its 13F portfolio is allocated to the stock. Other hedge funds that are bullish include Howard Marks\u2019s Oaktree Capital Management, Amy Minella\u2019s Cardinal Capital and Greg Poole\u2019s Echo Street Capital Management.\nAs industrywide interest increased, certain money managers were breaking ground themselves. AEW Capital Management, managed by Jeffrey Furber, created the most outsized position in EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR). AEW Capital Management had 68 million invested in the company at the end of the quarter. J. Alan Reid, Jr.\u2019s Forward Management also made a $20.7 million investment in the stock during the quarter. The other funds with brand new EPR positions are Howard Marks\u2019s Oaktree Capital Management, Amy Minella\u2019s Cardinal Capital, and Greg Poole\u2019s Echo Street Capital Management.\nHow have insiders been trading EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR)?\nLegal insider trading, particularly when it\u2019s bullish, is best served when the company we\u2019re looking at has experienced transactions within the past 180 days. Over the last half-year time period, EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR) has seen zero unique insiders buying, and zero insider sales (see the details of insider trades here).\nWe\u2019ll also review the relationship between both of these indicators in other stocks similar to EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR). These stocks are Alexander\u2019s, Inc. (NYSE:ALX), Tanger Factory Outlet Centers Inc. (NYSE:SKT), Northstar Realty Finance Corp. (NYSE:NRF), Washington Real Estate Investment Trust (NYSE:WRE), and Equity One, Inc. (NYSE:EQY).

        "title": "Understanding Momentum Indicators and RSI",
        "raw_content": "Every book dealing with the subject of technical analysis devotes at least a couple of chapters discussing both momentum and the relative strength index (RSI). For those of you not familiar with price momentum and the RSI, you need to know that J. Welles Wilder (who created the index in the late 1970s) first wrote about the subject in the classic \"New Concepts in Trading Systems.\"\nTo understand how these two indicators can be used together, we must first, for a moment, review each of them.\nMomentum is the measurement of the speed or velocity of price changes. In \"Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets,\" John J. Murphy explains:\n\"Market momentum is measured by continually taking price differences for a fixed time interval. To construct a 10-day momentum line, simply subtract the closing price 10 days ago from the last closing price. This positive or negative value is then plotted around a zero line. The formula for momentum is:\nV is the latest price, and Vx is the closing price x number of days ago.\"\nMomentum measures the rate of the rise or fall in stock prices. From the standpoint of trending, momentum is a very useful indicator of strength or weakness in the issue's price. History has shown us that momentum is far more useful during rising markets than during falling markets; the fact that markets rise more often than they fall is the reason for this. In other words, bull markets tend to last longer than bear markets. (To learn more, see: Banking Profits in Bull and Bear Markets.)\nThe relative strength index was created by J. Welles Wilder Jr. in the late 1970s; his \"New Concepts in Trading Systems\" (1978) is now an investment-lit classic. On a chart, RSI assigns stocks a value between 0 and 100. Once these numbers are charted, analysts compare them against other factors, such as the undersold or underbought values. To reach the best evaluation, experts generally chart the RSI on a daily time frame rather than hourly. However, sometimes shorter hourly periods are charted to indicate whether it is a good idea to make a short-term asset purchase. (See also: Who developed the relative strength index (RSI)?)\nThere has always been a little confusion over the difference between relative strength, which measures two separate and different entities by means of a ratio line, and the RSI, which indicates to the trader whether or not an issue's price action is created by those over-buying or over-selling it. The well-known formula for the relative strength index is as follows:\nRSI = 100 - (100 / 1 + RS)\nRS = Average of x days' up closes / Average of x days' down closes\nAt the bottom of the RSI chart, settings of 70 and 30 are considered standards that serve as clear warnings of, respectively, overbought and oversold assets. A trader with today's simple-to-use software may choose to reset the indicators' parameters to 80 and 20. This helps the trader to be sure when making the decision to buy or sell an issue and not pull the trigger too fast.\nUltimately, RSI is a tool to determine low-probability and high-reward setups. It works best when compared to short-term moving-average crossovers. Using a 10-day moving average with a 25-day moving average, you may find that the crossovers indicating a shift in direction will occur very closely to the times when the RSI is either in the 20/30 or 70/80 range, the times when it is showing either distinct overbought or oversold readings. Simply put, the RSI forecasts sooner than almost anything else an upcoming reversal of a trend, either up or down. (If you want more details, check out: An Introduction to the Relative Strength Index.)\n[The RSI and momentum indicators are just a few examples among many tools that you can leverage in stock chart analysis. To learn more about the technical indicators that can serve as the backbone of a successful trading strategy, check out the Technical Analysis course on the Investopedia Academy.]\nBoth indicators are very reliable on their own, but what would happen if we decided to put the two of them together? The result offers even better timing with our entry and exit points. Let's have a look.\nIn the first chart, we have inserted a momentum indicator with a 12-day period. In the second chart, we compare the stock during the same time frame and lay the RSI indicator across the bottom of the space. The RSI in this example is also a 12-day period.\nThe first look at the stock shows momentum rising over the zero line in the first week of December. We have shown this on the chart with blue up arrows. This entry signal is not long lived, as the momentum turns a week later and heads south in a hurry to finish the year at about the $22 level, shown with red down arrows. The next entry level is not seen until the first week in February of 2003, again shown with blue up arrows. For the most part, the momentum does not fall below the zero line with any conviction from that week on until the week of June 23. During this period of time, the stock price moves from the $21 level to the most recent close of $32.47.\nChart created with Tradestation\nThe second look at the stock, which shows the RSI indicator, has a slightly different look from the momentum chart above. First off, there is a weak entry point in early January and then a few weeks later a somewhat stronger entry point, which for the most part continues throughout the winter and on into the spring. You can see that, after the blue up arrows (entry points) we have drawn in the early part of the year, there are three sets of red down arrows (exit points) during mid-March, again during the second week in May and again in the third week of June.\nIt is important to recognize that many traders view the RSI value of 50 to be a support and resistance benchmark. If an issue has a difficult time breaking through the 50-value level, the resistance may be too high at that particular time, and the price action may fall off again until there is enough volume to break through and continue on to new levels. An issue falling in price may find support at the 50 value and bounce off this level again to continue an upward rise in price action. (For more information, see: Support and Resistance Reversals.)\nThis study of this stock demonstrates an interesting look that traders should consider when using oscillators for entry and exit points. In the second chart, the weak entry point in early January is not even reflecting a buy signal in the first chart, which uses momentum. In conclusion, traders should disregard the entry signal. However, the second entry signal issued a few weeks later by the RSI is confirmed a week later with a strong buy signal from the momentum indicator rising above the zero line.\nAnother important note is that, even though there are three exit signals shown on the RSI chart, the momentum does confirm sell signals, and the stock continues to rise with short-lived pullbacks. The sell signal on the RSI chart during the third week of June is confirmed with the momentum indicator falling off sharply at the same time and dropping below the zero line.\nDouble confirmation of entry and exit points gives traders a better understanding of whether or not they are getting in or out at the right time. And timing is everything in this game.

        "raw_content": "Because it is virtualized, we save time to set up, warranty, and AC cooling costs\nWe use it for virtualization. We have all of our servers virtualized on the entire unit.\nThe performance has been outstanding. It's amazing.\nWe currently have two Dell EMC Unities going. One of them at our primary on-premise DR site. They communicate with each other. If we ever have to failover, it is right there and ready.\nWe have integrated it with VMware, Exchange, Microsoft SQL, and all types of Windows servers running on it. It out performs any other physical hardware that I have ever had. We had to purchase the licenses for the Exchange and SQL servers. We also had to purchase VMware, and that could be cheaper.\nWe are also using it with our Veeam solution for our backup. Everything is just integrated so seamlessly. It is great.\nThe ease of use. Being able to configure it was easy, which I liked.\nIt is easy to manage. Managing it, I get alerts if there are any type of issues. I had a hard drive go bad, which had never caused any issues. Dell EMC contacted me, and said, \"We are a shipping a new one out.\" My response was, \"Why?\" He told me that hard drive was bad. So, I went and looked, and it was. This was almost immediate. I never even knew anything had happened.\nAs frequently as updates come in, it has far more updates than anything else, Dell does it for you, which makes it simple to do them. I just sit back and watch them do it, so it's nice. It keeps us up-to-date and secure.\nIt should be lighter. It takes up a ton of rack space. It would be nice to have a smaller footprint.\nIt might be nice to have more integrated features instead of having everything as a separate module, like the networking. The networking is attached separately in the back. It would be nice if that was more integrated with less ports.\nStability is perfect and consistent. We have had no downtime. It is reliable.\nAs far as hardware goes, we haven't had to scale up at all. We're staying pretty steady.\nAs far as users go, I have about 1000 users on it right now, and it's not even at 50%. It's amazing as far as utilization goes.\nTechnical support is top-notch. I have talked to them a couple times. They definitely seem to know what they are talking about. They are pretty quick to get parts out, and getting a tech out there to replace them.\nThis is our first time that we moved into virtualization. We are largely an HPE shop.\nThe initial setup is pretty straightforward. I had a technician do it for me, then I looked over his shoulder because I had never done it before. He told me that he would do it this one time, and next time I would set it up because it was not that hard. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't impossible.\nIt was very easy to order. We went through and spec'd it out internally, then went through a Dell EMC partner and spec'd it out through them. The parts were here quickly, assembled, and all we had to do was mount it. We didn't have to do any configuring nor assembly, which was good.\nDell EMC did setup number one. Then, they shadowed me when I did the next setup. It's not simple, but it's doable. It's doable with the right guidance.\nDeployment with the product is great.\nWhen I first got the Dell EMC Unity system, I converted all of our physical machines to virtual, which:\nEliminated the need for a $300,000 cost upfront to extend warranties.\nEliminated the electricity that was being used along with other inadvertent items, such as cooling. The AC doesn't run as much in the data center now.\nWe went from about 45 servers down to one, which is amazing.\nAs far as purchasing additional servers, there is no need to buy hardware. It's all right there. Since we have deployed, this has easily saved us close to about $300,000 easily.\nThe time to set up has definitely improved. That is ROI for us. We save time spinning up a new server. If you ask me today for a new server, I can have it ready by the end up the day. When we were using hardware, it would take us about three weeks. We would have to provision a server. We would have to spec it out, buy it, assemble it, install the OS, back it, then we were finally ready to go. Whereas now, by the end of the day, I have a very nice server.\nSimplicity of ownership is a no-brainer:\nObtaining a warranty is easy.\nAs far as licensing goes, I love how VMware works with Dell EMC Unity. It's great. They work hand in hand. They have made it so simple.\nWe looked at VxRail, IBM, and Nutanix. Dell EMC Unity work out financially. VxRail was nice, but a lot more expensive and robust. Price-wise, Dell EMC Unity was right where we needed it to be.\nMake sure to shop around to make absolutely 100% certain that it is what you want. You will want to come back to this particular model.\nKnowledge: They know what they are talking about.\nAggressiveness: Are they vested in the pricing and product?\nITManage593a\nIT Manager at a transportation company with 201-500 employees\nWe currently have two Dell EMC Unities going. One of them at our primary on-premise DR site. They communicate with each other. If we ever have to failover, it is right there and ready. It is easy to manage. Managing it, I get alerts if there are any type of issues. I had a hard drive go bad, which had never caused any issues. Dell EMC contacted me, and said, \"We are a shipping a new one out.\" My response was, \"Why?\" He told me that hard drive was bad. So, I went and looked, and it was. This was almost immediate. I never even knew anything had happened.\nIt should be lighter. It takes up a ton of rack space. It would be nice to have a smaller footprint. It might be nice to have more integrated features instead of having everything as a separate module, like the networking. The networking is attached separately in the back. It would be nice if that was more integrated with less ports.\nObtaining a warranty is easy. The price is very reasonable. As far as licensing goes, I love how VMware works with Dell EMC Unity. It's great. They work hand in hand. They have made it so simple.",

        "raw_content": "The Ramparts Walk:\nClimb the Walls of Jerusalem\nThe Ramparts walk is a fun way to get an overview of Jerusalem. For a small entrance fee, you can climb the ramparts of the Old City and circle the city from above. Not only to you get to peek in places you\u2019d never see otherwise \u2013 like the cloistered Armenian compound \u2013 but you also get a stunning view of the areas outside the walls.\nThe present walls of Jerusalem were built by Suleiman the Magnificent in the 16th century, when he restored the ancient walls of the city, and they have served as military fortifications ever since.\nFrom 1948 to 1967, Jordanian snipers used the ramparts as a vantage point from which to shoot at Israelis living outside the walls. You can still see multiple bullet holes on many of the older buildings facing the Old City. (Read more here about Jerusalem divided after the Arab-Israeli War of 1948.)\nToday, the ramparts serve a more peaceful purpose as a choice destination for school field trips, tourists and Jerusalem enthusiasts.\nYou can't circumnavigate the entire Old City in one shot, since access to the ramparts of the Temple Mount is closed off, and the road bisects the walls at Jaffa Gate.\nOne part of the Ramparts Walk begins just outside Jaffa Gate. The entrance is a bit hard to find. Before going through the gate into the Old City, head to the enclosure to the right of Jaffa Gate, as you face the Old City. You\u2019ll be walking between two stone walls on a stone path. Follow the signs or ask someone \u2013 the entrance is a bit of way down, around a corner to the left.\nThis section takes you from Jaffa Gate to Zion Gate and lets you off near Dung Gate, not far from the Western Wall Plaza and the Jewish Quarter. It offers a stunning view of Old City rooftops, Sultan\u2019s Pool, Yemin Moshe, Mt. Zion and the Mt. of Olives. You can also access the ramparts from Damascus Gate follow them to Lion\u2019s Gate.\nThe walk requires a lot of stair climbing and descending. Make sure you\u2019re wearing comfortable walking shoes, and that you have enough water with you \u2013 once you\u2019re on the ramparts, there\u2019s no getting off until the end and no refreshment kiosk or bathroom along the way.\nWhile the ramparts walk is great fun for adults and older kids, it\u2019s not a suitable activity for small children, people who are scared of heights or those who have trouble walking.\nHours: Sun \u2013 Thurs, Sat 9:00 \u2013 16:00; Fri 9:00 \u2013 14:00.\nAdmission: 16 shekel adults, 8 shekels children.\nQuick Jerusalem Sightseeing Links\nReturn from Ramparts Walk to the Old City: Experience the Holy City Jerusalem\nReturn to Best Jerusalem Old City Sites",

Hickton announced today.\nUnited States District Judge Cathy Bissoon imposed the sentence on Justin Ellenberger, age 26.\nAccording to information presented to the court, on March 10, 2014, Ellenberger distributed, to an a FBI agent working in Newark, New Jersey, in an undercover capacity, 19 photographs and a video contained in computer graphics files which depicted minors, some under the age of 12 years, engaging in sexually explicit conduct. A search warrant later executed at Ellenberger\u2019s residence resulted in the seizure of two computers and an external hard drive, in which thousands of still images and videos had been stored by Ellenberger.\nJudge Bissoon allowed Ellenberger to remain on bond pending designation to a federal correctional facility.\nAssistant United States Attorney Carolyn J. Bloch prosecuted this case on behalf of the government.\nU.S. Attorney Hickton commended the Federal Bureau of Investigation for the investigation leading to the successful prosecution of Ellenberger.\nThis case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.

About 5 years ago, my mother in law asked me to study the Bible with her. Then it was the gospels. Then just the gospel of John. I tried to harmonize all four, that was before I realized that someone had done this years ago and give it a name. Too many difference. Too many questions. I then tried to find what the Bible said it would take to be saved. Again conflicts. I believed pray helped. Ask and you shall receive\u2026.even though many things I asked for never happened. Heard about the pray study written up in the NYTimes in 2006.\nMy husband would probably agree to take part in your study. Don\u2019t worry about the money or donate it to the KCAC.\nWillard E. Bolinger says:\n71 years young. Grew up in Iowa on farm. My Dad(adopted at 4 with brother almost 6) was not religious. Mom taught Methodist sunday school and officer of PTA. Seven years old I got to my mother sunday school class and she was shocked to find out I did not believe many stories in the Bible. Jesus did not have any medical knowledge he believe people were possessed by demons and by saying magic words and laying is hand on them he might be able to chase demons out. and there are no demons, mom. She wasn\u201dt so sure there might be.A God who could create everything in six days and then needed to rest? The Garden Of Eden where they had everything they needed? And a Tree of the Knowledge Of Good and Evil that Adam was told not to eat? Ridiculous stories to me. My brother joined the Marines after high school in 1958 and during the summer I bought a notebook and went through the Bible taking notes and tried to have discussion with mom, but I already knew she believed you were not to question the Bible, which she believed , as taught, that it was the Word of God, and she was afraid of going to Hell and liked going to Heaven when you died, My brother and I had to say Grace before meals and thank God for our food, but over the uears I did not see God doing anything for this food so I started to give thanks to the people we knew in ouir community and my parents for the food we ate and it wasn\u2019t long before the prayers were dropped. During my Junior years we had to say the Pledge of Allegiance with the \u201cunder God\u201d just added in 1954 and I got my mother to help compose a letter to the ACLU and I mailed it in our mail box was the highway and rode the school bus to school. Mom said they never responsed and about 12 years later she admitted that she went down and took it out of the mail box and through it away. She said she was afraid of being ostracized in the community if the case became public.\nJustin McKenzie says:\nGood afternoon Joseph,\nI would be pleased to take part in your study. Though, I am from Australia. Not sure if you are only looking for local participants. If not, feel free to get in touch with me.\nEden Hills, South Australia\nDon\u2019t forget to contact Joseph at jctennant@uchicago.edu if you\u2019d like to participate. That way you can arrange for your interview time and location. Sorry, only open to those local to the Kansas City area at this time\u2014Joseph will drive to meet you, but he has his limits!\nI am interested in this. I would love to get involved with this organization\u2026.",

        "raw_content": "Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid reduce interleukin-1\u03b2-mediated cartilage degradation.\nWann AKT., Mistry J., Blain EJ., Michael-Titus AT., Knight MM.\nINTRODUCTION: In inflammatory joint disease, such as osteoarthritis (OA), there is an increased level of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1\u03b2. These cytokines stimulate the production of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which leads to the degradation of the cartilage extracellular matrix and the loss of key structural components such as sulphated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) and collagen II. The aim of this study was to examine the therapeutic potential of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in an in vitro model of cartilage inflammation. METHODS: Two specific n-3 compounds were tested, namely, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), each at 0.1, 1 and 10 \u03bcM. Full thickness bovine cartilage explants, 5 mm in diameter, were cultured for 5 days with or without IL-1\u03b2 and in the presence or absence of each n-3 compound. The media were replaced every 24 hours and assayed for sGAG content using the 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue (DMB) method. Chondrocyte viability was determined at the end of the culture period using fluorescence microscopy to visualise cells labelled with calcein AM and ethidium homodimer. RESULTS: Treatment with IL-1\u03b2 (10 ng.ml\u207b\u00b9) produced a large increase in sGAG release compared to untreated controls, but with no effect on cell viability, which was maintained above 80% for all treatments. In the absence of IL-1\u03b2, both n-3 compounds induced a mild catabolic response with increased loss of sGAG, particularly at 10 \u03bcM. By contrast, in the presence of IL-1\u03b2, both EPA and DHA at 0.1 and 1 \u03bcM significantly reduced IL-1\u03b2-mediated sGAG loss. The efficacy of the EPA treatment was maintained at approximately 75% throughout the 5-day period. However, at the same concentrations, the efficacy of DHA, although initially greater, reduced to approximately half that of EPA after 5 days. For both EPA and DHA, the highest dose of 10 \u03bcM was less effective. CONCLUSIONS: The results support the hypothesis that n-3 compounds are anti-inflammatory through competitive inhibition of the arachidonic acid oxidation pathway. The efficacy of these compounds is likely to be even greater at more physiological levels of IL-1\u03b2. Thus we suggest that n-3 PUFAs, particularly EPA, have exciting therapeutic potential for preventing cartilage degradation associated with chronic inflammatory joint disease.\nAnimals, Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Cartilage Diseases, Cartilage, Articular, Cattle, Cell Survival, Chondrocytes, Docosahexaenoic Acids, Eicosapentaenoic Acid, Interleukin-1beta, Male",

We can take inspiration from the activists, health workers, fundraisers, diplomats and ministers \u2014 the General Assembly and all of you,\u201d he said, according to the news service (6/10).\nA UNAIDS press release notes Ban released a report (.pdf) to the General Assembly, titled \u201cAccelerating the AIDS response: achieving the targets of the 2011 Political Declaration,\u201d which \u201ctakes stock of progress made in implementing the targets set out in the 2011 United Nations General Assembly Political Declaration on HIV and AIDS\u201d and \u201cprovides an update on developments in the AIDS response, recommends key actions to accelerate progress and urges renewed commitment to achieve the agreed targets and commitments\u201d (6/10).

        "title": "Is the Stimulus a Failure?",
        "raw_content": "Is the Stimulus a Failure?\nFive months have passed since President Obama signed the $787 billion stimulus bill, and the economy remains mired in the doldrums. Any hopeful signs (what economists like to call green shoots) are offset by continuing job losses -- 433,000 last month, enough to push the jobless rate to 9.5%. Opinion polls show the public losing confidence in the stimulus and in Obama, and Republicans are saying, I told you so.\nRepublicans are obviously scoring points making a case that the moves of the Democratic president and Democratic Congress have failed to fix the economic mess and may be making it worse. It is clearly Obama's economy now, and polls show the public is especially concerned about the deficit, which hit $1.1 trillion in the first nine months of this fiscal year.\nThe GOP attacks represent a tried and true tactic, one that's entirely legitimate (at least in the sense that all is fair in love, war and politics). And Democrats made it easy by making promises in February that were never very realistic.\nOf more interest to the country, however, is the fundamental question of whether the stimulus is or will work and whether anything should be done about it. This is not an academic question. Democrats are hinting at the need for a second stimulus and Republicans are talking about rolling back the one passed in February.\nTo date, about $156 billion in new spending has been committed, but only a fraction of that amount -- $56 billion has actually been distributed to state governments, jobless workers and others. Another $43 billion has been left in the hands of taxpayers who saw withholding rates adjusted to that effect.\nThis is largely what was intended. The stimulus is a two-year bill containing about $499 billion in spending and $288 billion in tax cuts. While the hope was to get money for infrastructure out the door quickly, much of the other spending and the tax cuts were intentionally designed to dribble out slowly. The feeling was that the recession would last awhile and the recovery would be weak, so the spending would be helpful over a long term horizon.\nThe stimulus has had a positive impact in some areas, but the evidence is anecdotal and its effect on the overall economy is hard to assess. For example, the $8,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers, which was added almost at the last minute, seems to be giving the housing market a much needed helping hand. And money provided to local governments has helped keep many summer job programs for young people alive.\nBut with the unemployment rate headed north of 10% early next year, many Americans are feeling more anxious than ever. It certainly didn't help that the Obama administration, in an effort to win support for the stimulus, promised to create or save up to 3 million jobs and keep unemployment at 8%. But you can feel some sympathy for the president when you remember he cut back the size of the stimulus and added a lot of slow-acting tax cuts to appease Republicans and win at least a couple of their votes, only to be blamed now by some economists who say the bill wasn't big enough and is being rolled out too slowly.\nThe fact of the matter is that we are unlikely to ever be able to determine whether the stimulus was effective because we'll never know how the economy would have fared without it. There is just no way to tell for sure. That leaves the verdict in the court of public opinion, and both sides will keep arguing their case in an effort to sway voters. Recent polls show Republicans gaining, with Obama's overall job approval rating dropping to 57%, and only 44% approving of the way he's handling the economy. Over the next several months, the political debate will only grow more fierce, with both sides believing it is key to the 2010 congressional elections.",

        "raw_content": "By Jillian Angeline |\nWASHINGTON (GrayDC) - Lawmakers push for new legislation to increase the power of your concealed carry permit. Some lawmakers want to establish a uniform system to allow those with concealed carry permits to travel across all state lines. But the divided Congress may present some challenges.\n\"In Texas to get a concealed carry license, you go through a background check, a criminal records check, you go through training, and when you receive that license, that license should be valid in other states,\" said Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).\nTexas Senators say allowing someone who has a concealed carry gun permit to take that gun into another state with similar laws is just common sense.\n\"To me, it's like a driver's license. If I can get a license to drive my car in Texas, why can't I drive my car in Virginia or Maryland?\" said Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX).\nThis is not the first time the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act has been introduced, but Sen. Cornyn hopes this time it will finally become law.\n\"Otherwise, it's a game of gotcha where people who inadvertently drive across state lines and forget they have a gun with them, they get caught in that trap,\" he notes.\nAndrew Patrick, with the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence calls the bill troubling. He said some states have easier concealed carry requirements than others.\n\"Would someone from Chicago be comfortable with someone from South Dakota coming in who's had no training at all and walking the streets with a deadly weapon?\" he said.\nBut one thing both sides seem to agree on: a divided Congress may mean the legislation won't go anywhere.\n\"I doubt very seriously this will be brought up for a vote on the House of Representatives,\" Patrick said.\nSen. Ted Cruz said he thinks it is unlikely House Speaker Nancy Pelosi would even entertain a vote on concealed carry reciprocity given most Democrats are opposed to loosening gun regulations.\nSen. Cornyn said he will be urging the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Lindsey Graham to get the legislation into the Senate for a vote very soon.",

The National Weather Service says chances for a tropical cyclone formation in the western Gulf of Mexico have decreased to 20 percent.\nThere\u2019s a potential for tropical funnel clouds east of Highway 281, south of IH 10 today as the system moves inland. These will be short-lived and are not expected to touch down.\nForcecasters say regardless of development, the main impact from this system will be periods of heavy rain and potential flooding today through late Saturday across South Central Texas.\nRainfall amounts of 1-3 inches with isolated pockets near 5 inches are possible.\nHeavy rainfall and flooding are of greatest concern for the Coastal Plains, San Antonio metro area, portions of the Hill Country, and Rio Grande Plains.\nFlash flooding of low water crossings, underpasses and urban areas are possible with minor to moderate flooding likely on the Rio Grande, Nueces, Frio and San Antonio Rivers.\n(PREVIOUS STORY\nSAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) \u2013 The National Weather Service has issued a Flash Flood Watch from 7 a.m. Friday to 7 pm Saturday for parts of South Central Texas, including San Antonio.\nForecasters say a cluster of thunderstorms in the Gulf of Mexico is on a path to South Texas with a 50 percent chance of becoming a tropical depression by this evening.\nThe system could bring up 2 to 4 inches of rain, with some areas getting as much as 8 inches.

        "raw_content": "La Jolla native has blog, book to share her love of cooking\nLa Jolla native Kelly Senyei.\nLa Jolla native Kelly Senyei is all about sharing the love. More specifically, her love and knowledge of cooking. Her blog, Just A Taste, started as a way for her to share the recipes her mother \u2014 Noni Senyei of La Jolla \u2014 taught her.\n\u201cMy mom is an unbelievable cook and every night I would come home and there would be some different dish on the table and when we were home, she always encouraged my brother, sister and I to be in the kitchen with her,\u201d she said (lucky for her dad, Drew Senyei).\nWhen Kelly was in school at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in New York, she used cooking as a way to decompress at the end of the day. \u201cPeople would ask me for my recipes, which I would e-mail out to them, and I decided to put the recipes online to make it easy for people to access them directly,\u201d she said.\nSo she started Just A Taste in 2008 and in addition to her mother\u2019s recipes, she would create her own, and post them to the site, along with videos and photos.\n\u201cEvery post I have has photos that illustrate steps along the way for every recipe, so people can follow along visually,\u201d she said. \u201cSometimes you need a visual cue like if I say \u2018slice into the puff pastry like this\u2019 you can see it and understand it.\u201d\nWhen not blogging, Kelly was still gathering knowledge about food. She worked for the Food Network, Epicurious.com and GourmetLive.com (the online version of Gourmet Magazine). After journalism school, Kelly went to culinary school, learning more still.\n\u201cI knew if I wanted to (write about food) professionally I needed to have culinary training and background to support everything I was writing about and making,\u201d she said, encouraging people to take advantage of her education.\n\u201cCulinary school teaches your palate what works and what goes together. So my original recipes are based on strategies or flavor combinations I learned in culinary school,\u201d she said.\nKelly Senyei\u2019s balsamic honey pulled pork sandwiches\nNow her full-time job, she runs Just A Taste with regular postings that cover holiday content, family-friendly dishes and no-cook recipes. \u201cI\u2019m a sweets person, so there are a lot of desserts on my blog. I\u2019m working with a lot of no-bake and no-cook dishes now because of the summer heat,\u201d she said. \u201cBut I\u2019m also focusing on family-friendly dishes. I like to make things that look like they took five hours to make, but they only took an hour \u2014 something quick and easy but impressive.\u201d\nAfter her success with the blog, the publishing company behind the \u201cFor Dummies\u201d series approached her to write \u201cFood Blogging For Dummies,\u201d further extending her knowledge-sharing reach.\n\u201cIt\u2019s literally soup to nuts \u2014 everything you could want to know about starting a food blog, but it\u2019s good for understanding blogs in general.

        "raw_content": "On December 6, 2017, Judge Claudia Wilken, who presided over the O\u2019Bannon federal court trial, gave final approval to a $208.7 million settlement by which the NCAA will compensate 43,000 student-athletes who received athletic scholarships limited to the value of tuition, fees, books, and room and board at their respective universities prior to the \u201cfull cost of attendance\u201d scholarships now permitted under NCAA rules.\nRe NCAA Athletic Grant-In-Aid Cap\nIn March 2018, Judge Wilken scheduled a ten-day bench trial beginning on December 3, 2018 to hear the consolidated antitrust claims of current and former men\u2019s Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) football and men\u2019s and women\u2019s Division I basketball student-athletes against the NCAA and eleven athletic conferences whose member universities\u2019 teams participated in these sports. Plaintiffs allege that the defendants violated federal antitrust law by conspiring to impose an artificial ceiling on the economic value of the scholarships and benefits that they may receive from their respective universities as payment for their athletic services. Specifically, they seek injunctive relief against enforcement of NCAA\u2019s rules prohibiting universities from competing to recruit student-athletes with offers of cash or various benefits tethered to educational expenses (e.g., prohibiting tutoring to assist in initial eligibility, transfer eligibility, or waiver requests; restricting reimbursement for computers, science equipment, musical instruments and other items related to the pursuit of various academic studies, but not currently included in the cost of attendance calculation; permitting guaranteed post-eligibility scholarships for undergraduate or graduate study and tutoring costs only at their own institution, not at other) or incidental to athletic participation (e.g., permissible reimbursement for family travel expenses), including rules that have changed after O\u2019Bannon. Regarding the parties\u2019 respective summary judgment motions, Judge Wilken ruled as follows: 1) res judicata and collateral estoppel do not bar plaintiffs\u2019 claims because the challenged NCAA rules are not the same as those at issue in O\u2019Bannon; 2) as in O\u2019Bannon, the relevant market is a college education combined with athletics, or alternatively, the market for the student-athletes\u2019 athletic services; 3) \u201cgreater compensation and benefits would be offered in the recruitment of student-athletes absent the challenged rules\u201d; 4) whether the challenged NCAA rules further the procompetitive justifications recognized by O\u2019Bannon (i.e., \u201cintegrating academics with athletics\u201d and \u201cpreserving the popularity of the NCAA\u2019s product by promoting its current understanding of amateurism\u201d) is a factual issue for trial; and 6) plaintiffs\u2019 proposed less restrictive alternatives (e.g., conference autonomy) to achieve the NCAA\u2019s procompetitive objectives for the challenged rules are not foreclosed by O\u2019Bannon and raise a fact question for resolution at trial. In re NCAA Athletic Grant-In-Aid Cap Antitrust Litigation, 2018 WL 1524005 (N.D. Cal. March 28, 2018).\nChris Spielman class action law suit\nIn July 2017, Chris Spielman, a former All-American football player at Ohio State University, filed a class action antitrust suit seeking treble damages on behalf of himself and other former Ohio State players (including two-time Heisman Trophy winner Archie Griffin) against Ohio State and IMG College, a sports marketing company that represents the university and many others, in U.S. District Court in Columbus. It is patterned after Ed O\u2019Bannon\u2019s successful antitrust suit against the NCAA and alleges the defendants and co-conspirators Honda and Nike violated federal antitrust law by conspiring to prevent current and former Ohio State football players from receiving any compensation for the unauthorized use of their name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights in various advertising materials and products, including 64 honorary banners hung in Ohio Stadium featuring former Buckeye football players' names and likenesses (including Spielman\u2019s) along with Honda\u2019s corporate logo as well as Nike\u2019s \"Legends of the Scarlet and Gray\" vintage jerseys and other Buckeyes apparel. In response, Ohio State filed a pay-to-play culture, agreeing to provide access to their most valuable players while also effectively exerting their influence over them. Today\u2019s arrests should also serve as a warning to those who conduct business this way in the world of college athletics.\u201d\nUnited States v. Gatto\nThe court denied defendants\u2019 motion to dismiss the indictment charging them with conspiring to use interstate or foreign wires in furtherance of a scheme to defraud universities by paying bribes to ensure high school basketball players would attend and play for the universities. United States v. Gatto, 2018 WL 1136109 (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 28, 2018).\nUnlawful payments to athletes\nIn new charges filed in April 2018, the FBI alleges James \"Jim\" Gatto, former Adidas global sports marketing director for basketball, surreptitiously made two $40,000 payments to the father of a prospective North Carolina State University basketball player to ensure he would attend the university and sign a sponsorship deal with Adidas when he became an NBA player. The new charges also assert that in November 2016 Gatto paid $90,000 to a recruit\u2019s mother in an effort to get the player to attend the University Kansas and to become an Adidas sponsor as an NBA player. No charges have been brought against Kansas, North Carolina State, or either schools\u2019 head basketball coaches, but the investigation is ongoing. The new charges also identify coaches and players associated with the University of Louisville and University of Miami in connection with the previous allegations of corruption involving the recruiting of college basketball players.\nAs a result of the FBI's multi-year probe into corrupt college basketball recruiting practices, former Louisville coach Rick Pitino is accused of knowing about a $100,000 payment made by Adidas representatives to the family of five-star recruit Brian Bowen to secure his commitment to Louisville, which he denied knowing about. On October 16, 2017, Louisville fired Pitino for cause, which resulted in his filing of a breach of contract suit against the university to recover the $36 million balance of his employment contract. In a counterclaim, Louisville has alleged Pitino is liable for breach of contract, negligence, and unlawful interference with business relationships between the university and the NCAA, Atlantic Coast Conference, media companies, TV networks and sponsors. It is seeking unspecified monetary damages and demands that Pitino indemnify the university for any financial penalties it must pay to the NCAA for rules violations connected to his wrongdoing or breach of employment contract obligations. Independent Commission on College Basketball Proposed Reforms.\nProposed elimination of the \u201cone-and-done rule\"\nOn April 25, 2018, the Commission, which was formed by the NCAA in the wake of the foregoing federal government action and chaired by Condoleezza Rice, former U.S. secretary of state and Stanford University provost, released its recommendations. It proposes elimination of the \u201cone-and-done rule\u201d pursuant to which college basketball players are eligible for the NBA draft after playing one year (which would require agreement by the NBA and NBA Players Association) as well as several other reforms requiring adoption by the NCAA, including: allowing student-athletes to retain their college basketball eligibility until signing a professional contract; a new process for certifying agents and permitting them to advise student-athletes regarding their potential as professional players; creating independent entities that would adjudicate complex and \"high-stakes\" NCAA rules violation cases; increased penalties for serious NCAA rules violations, including five-year postseason bans for university athletic teams and lifetime bans for coaches; NCAA-run summer basketball events for prospective college basketball players; adding five public members to the NCAA\u2019s Board of Governors (currently consisting of exclusively college and university presidents and chancellors); and requiring coaches, athletics directors, and university presidents to certify annually their compliance with all NCAA rules. The Commission did not recommend that college basketball players receive cash payments for their playing services or be compensated for use of the NILs. It also did not suggest any changes to the college basketball season schedule or the men's NCAA Division I tournament to reduce missed classes or to provide players with more time to focus on academic endeavors. The NCAA\u2019s Board of Governors is considering the Commission\u2019s proposals, which likely will be adopted because it previously pledged an initial $10 million to implement them along with $2.5 million annually thereafter.\nPac 12 NCAA Basketball Reform Task Force\nA Pac 12 task force was created after last fall's college basketball federal indictments. The group produced a 50-page report that was unanimously approved by the Pac-12 presidents and chancellors. Like the Commission, the group favors the elimination of the \"one and done\" rule and tougher rules enforcement independent from the NCAA; and it also advocates sweeping changes to recruiting rules. Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott said that the proposed reforms will \u201chelp preserve the integrity of collegiate basketball and provide the choice, education and protection that our student-athletes deserve.\" Proposed College Athletic Protection (CAP) Agreement?\nThe National College Players Association\u2019s proposed CAP Agreement provides recruited student-athletes with a means of negotiating and obtaining written, legally enforceable benefits and rights permitted by NCAA rules that are not uniformly provided by its member universities, including post-eligibility medical insurance and the ability to be automatically released from a scholarship if a player decides to transfer. Other negotiable benefits include a guaranteed athletic scholarship for a given period of time; stipend and reimbursement money within NCAA limits; medical treatment or expenses reimbursement; and disability insurance. Student-athletes would submit a CAP Agreement to the universities interested in their playing services, with each university agreeing in writing to the particular rights and benefits it will provide, which would provide an alternative to the generally non-negotiable terms of the National Letter of Intent. The CAP Agreements with different universities would enable student-athletes to compare their respective offers and decide which one to accept.\nNCAA Rules Enforcement and Governance\nApplication of Amateurism Rules\nBefore accepting a football scholarship from the University of Central Florida (UCF), Donald De La Haye began posting humorous YouTube videos with social commentary. Thereafter, De La Haye\u2019s videos have included depictions of his day-to-day life as a UCF athlete and have shown his daily practice regimen as the team\u2019s kicker. His videos eventually became very popular and generated advertising revenues, and he started receiving modest compensation from the YouTube website, which conflicted with NCAA bylaw 12.4.4 permitting a college athlete to \u201cestablish his or her own business, provided the student-athlete\u2019s name, photograph, appearance or athletics reputation are not used to promote the business.\u201d In July 2014, the NCAA granted a waiver permitting De La Haye to earn money from his YouTube account for non-athletic postings if he stopped posting athletically-related videos. He subsequently posted a video \u201cQuit College Sports or Quit Youtube?,\u201d which was viewed by thousands. After De La Haye agreed only to stop posting videos referencing his status as a football player or showing off his athletic prowess and continued posting videos about his daily life with his name, image and athletic reputation prominently featured, UCF rescinded his football scholarship because this limited action would not fully comply with the NCAA\u2019s waiver requirements. He has filed a lawsuit alleging that UCF violated his First Amendment right to engage in free speech on social media platforms and that revoking his football scholarship removal was \u201carbitrary and unreasonable\u201d because it wasn\u2019t related to his academic standing or his athletic performance. Donald De La Haye v. University of Central Florida, Case 6:18-cv-135-ORL-22GJK, Orlando Dist. Ct (2018).\nIn September 2017, Texas A&M University freshman cross country runner Ryan Trahan claimed he was declared ineligible by the university for violating NCAA bylaw 12.4.4 by posting YouTube videos offering training tips for runners and advertising Neptune water, an ecologically friendly bottle company that started with a friend in 2016. To be granted a waiver that would allow Trahan to retain his college athletics eligibility and promote his company, the NCAA requested that he omit all references to Neptune or his status as a Texas A&M student-athlete on his YouTube channel, which has 14,000 subscribers.\nThe NCAA recently granted a waiver to Arike Ogunbowale, a University of Notre Dame women\u2019s basketball player who made the game-winning basket for the Irish in the 2018 national championship game, to enable her to participate in Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) and retain her college basketball eligibility. Her appearance on DWTS would violate the NCAA rule prohibiting student-athletes from allowing their NILs to be used for commercial purposes, including appearances on television shows such as DWTS. The NCAA granted this waiver because it deemed Ogunbowale\u2019s appearance on DWTS to be \u201cunrelated to her basketball abilities.\u201d\nNCAA Rules Enforcement Decisions\nOn March 12, 2012, the NCAA Committee on Infractions (COI) determined that the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill (UNC) was responsible for multiple NCAA rules violations, including academic fraud committed by a former assistant coach and a former tutor who had done work for football student-athletes and refused to cooperate with the NCAA\u2019s investigation. Penalties imposed on the university included a one-year football postseason ban, reduction of 15 football scholarships, vacation of records, and three years\u2019 probation. On June 30, 2014, the NCAA reopened its investigation after learning that additional people with information and others who were previously uncooperative were willing to speak with its enforcement staff. On October 13, 2017, the COI found that over an 18-year period UNC\u2019s Department of African and Afro-American Studies had offered admittedly academically deficient \u201cpaper courses\u201d in which numerous student-athletes received too much assistance enabling them to successfully complete these courses and to retain their intercollegiate athletics eligibility. However, the COI determined that UNC did not provide impermissible \u201cextra benefits\u201d to student-athletes because \u201csimilar assistance was generally available to all students\u201d and \u201cthe record does not establish that the courses were created, offered and maintained as an orchestrated effort to solely benefit student athletes.\u201d UNC previously characterized the assistance provided in these \u201cpaper courses\u201d as \u201cacademic fraud\u201d in a report to its accreditor, and it acknowledged in the COI hearing that the courses \u201cfailed to meet its standards and expectations.\u201d Because \u201cthe NCAA defers to academies on matters of academic fraud,\u201d the COI concluded it \u201ccannot second guess UNC's altered position\u201d that it did not. It explained: \u201cAs institutions of higher education, the NCAA membership trusts fellow members to hold themselves accountable in matters of academic integrity.\u201d University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Public Infractions Decision (10/13/2017).\nThis COI case centered on recruiting violations committed by University of Mississippi boosters as well as rules violations committed by members of its football staff, failure to monitor by the head football coach, and a lack of institutional control over football staff and boosters. An assistant athletics director had arranged for cash payouts between $13,000 and $15,600 facilitated by boosters to recruited student-athletes and lied about doing so in an interview with NCAA investigators. Two football program staffers forged ACT scores for the recruits and enabled a booster to provide five recruits with impermissible housing and transportation. The COI found that the university lacked institutional control over its football program and because this was its third violation of NCAA recruiting rules since 1986, it banned its football team from participation in a 2018 bowl game and imposed other sanctions (e.g., scholarship reductions, vacation of all games in which ineligible players participated, and show-cause orders for several former and current football coaches). Former head football coach Hugh Freeze, who resigned in July 2017 after it was revealed he had called an escort service from his university phone, will be suspended for two games for failing to exercise oversight over his staff if he subsequently is hired about another university\u2014a relatively light penalty because Freeze he had promoted an \u201catmosphere of compliance\u201d and cooperated with the NCAA\u2019s investigation. See University of Mississippi, Oxford Public Infractions Decision (12/1/2017).\nFor failing to monitor its football program from 2011-2015 and not ensuring its drug testing program complied with NCAA rules and university policy, the COI placed Rutgers University on probation for two years and publicly reprimanded it. It also found that former football coach Kyle Flood failed to monitor his operations staff and violated university policy by contacting an instructor to make a special academic arrangement for a student-athlete. Rutgers\u2019 cooperating with the NCAA\u2019s investigation, firing Flood and athletic director Julie Hermann, implementing a new drug testing, and hiring a new chief medical officer were mitigating factors considered by the COI in determining its sanction. Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick Public Infractions Decision (9/22/2017).\nThe COI imposed an eight-year \u201cshow cause\u201d order on Ron Verlin, former University of the Pacific head men\u2019s basketball coach for providing a recruit with a 1,400-word paper to pass of as his own work as well as answers to math course questions to other studentathletes and arranged for them to take unproctored exams. He also attempted to persuade multiple people to lie during the NCAA\u2019s investigation. University of the Pacific Public Infractions Decision, (9/20/2017).\nLarry Nassar Criminal Sexual Assault Guilty Pleas and Aftermath\nIn January 2018, Larry Nassar, the former Michigan State University (MSU) women\u2019s gymnastics team and USA Gymnastics team doctor who sexually molested numerous female gymnasts (more than 250 women accused him of doing so) over 25 years while claiming he was performing legitimate medical treatment on them, was sentenced to up to 175 years in prison after pleading guilty to ten counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct in Michigan state court proceedings. During his sentencing hearing, more than 150 courageous victims testified about the horror of being sexually assaulted by him. In December 2017, Nasser received a 60-year federal prison sentence after pleading guilty to child pornography charges.\nOn February 28, 2017, the USOC) announced the resignation of its chief executive Scott Blackmun and reforms to protect athletes from sex abuse.\nIn a March 2018 response to an NCAA inquiry submitted by its attorney Mike Glazier, MSU has denied it violated any NCAA rules: \u201cI trust that you will see that the University is in no way attempting to sidestep the issues facing it, and that if the University had any reason to believe the criminal conduct of Nassar also implicated NCAA rules violations, the University would accept responsibility in that area as well. However, after a thorough and analytic examination of NCAA legislation, and an application of the known facts associated with the Nassar matter to NCAA legislation, the University finds no NCAA rules violations.\u201d\nIn April 2018, Congress enacted the Protecting Young Victims from Sexual Abuse and Safe Sport Authorization Act, which requires amateur athletics governing bodies as well as all adults who interact with minors and amateur athletes to report sex-abuse allegations to local or federal law enforcement authorities within 24 hours. The failure to report a sexual abuse allegation is punishable by up to one year in prison. This law requires the governing bodies for amateur athletes to establish \u201creasonable procedures\u201d to limit oneon-one interactions between minors and adults, except in emergencies. It also authorizes the United States Center for SafeSport to ensure that aspiring U.S. Olympic athletes can report allegations of abuse to an independent entity for investigation and resolution and to ensure national governing bodies for all Olympic sports follow the strictest standards for child abuse prevention and detection. In addition, this law extends the tort statute of limitations within which sex-abuse victims can sue their offenders to age 28 or up to 10 years after the reasonable discovery of the violation, whichever is later.\nNassar\u2019s lengthy history of sexual assaults has led to several pending lawsuits against the USOC, USA Gymnastics, Bela and Martha Karolyi who operated a Houston, Texas area ranch used as a training ground for the U.S. women\u2019s gymnastics team, and Michigan State University for alleged tortious failures to prevent his egregious conduct or coverups of it.\nWhile hundreds of complaints have been filed with the US Department of Education Office for Civil Rights alleging institutional failure to adequately respond to sexual assault incidents on campus, in September 2017, the new Secretary of Education, Betsy deVos rescinded the 2011 and 2014 sexual assault guidance in favor of a 7-page Q&A. See Q&A on Campus Sexual Assault Misconduct.\nPenn State Scandal/Jerry Sandusky Sexual Child Abuse Aftermath\nAfter being found guilty of child endangerment, in June 2017, former Penn State president Graham Spanier was sentenced to 4-12 months in prison, with the first two months in jail and the remainder under house arrest. Former vice president Gary Schultz was sentenced to 6-12 months, with two months in prison. He also was ordered to pay a $7,500 fine and to perform 200 hours of community service. Former athletic director Tim Curley was sentenced to 7-23 months, with three months in jail. In imposing these sentences, Judge John Boccabella stated \u201cThey ignored the opportunity to put an end to [Jerry Sandusky\u2019s] crimes when they had a chance to do so. [I\u2019m] appalled that the common sense to make a phone call [to law enforcement officials] did not occur, [which] sort of robs my faith of who we are as adults.\u201d\nIt was reported that Penn State has paid approximately $250M in settlements, fines, and other costs associated with this scandal (as of June 2017).\nCalifornia Prohibition on State-Funded and State-Sponsored Travel to States with Discriminatory Laws\nCalifornia Assembly Bill No. 1887 prohibits state-funded travel to states (as of June 2017, Alabama, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee and Texas) that have enacted legislation that discriminates against gay, bisexual or transgender people. This law exempts contractual obligations entered into before 2017, but it presents future potential funding problems for California public university intercollegiate athletic teams with scheduled to participate in regular season or NCAA championship games or athletic events in those states.\nPending Litigation (other than personal injury, health, and safety)\nSouth Carolina women\u2019s basketball coach Dawn Staley has filed a defamation suit against Missouri athletic director Jim Sterk for accusing her of promoting a hostile game day atmosphere and claiming that Missouri players were spit upon and taunted with racial epithets by South Carolina fans during a game. After Sterk\u2019s accusations, South Carolina conducted an investigation and found \u201cno confirmation of the alleged behavior.\u201d The SEC reprimanded Sterk and fined him $25,000 for his comments, and it ordered a review of South Carolina\u2019s game management procedures. The court has ruled that the suit is subject to Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), which requires the parties involved to meet with a neutral mediator within 210 days (i.e. before 9/22/2018). If Staley and Sterk cannot reach an out-of-court settlement in that time, the case will go to trial. Dawn M. Staley v. Jim Sterk, S. Carolina Ct. of Common Pleas 5th Cir. (Feb. 22, 2018).\nIn April 2018, Zaire Webb, a freshman defensive back who was dismissed from the Washington State University football team after he and another player were accused of shoplifting, has sued the university and Mike Leach, its head coach. Webb lost his scholarship and was not permitted to rejoin the team after the charges against him were dropped when store surveillance footage showed he did not commit any theft. He contends the university failed to provide due process before revoking his athletic scholarship and that Leach has selectively enforced his policy of dismissing players who have committed theft, pointing out that another WSU football was permitted to remain on the team after pleading guilty to third-degree assault for mugging and stealing a case of beer from a man.\nOn August 24, 2017, Amani Bledsoe, a University of Oklahoma football player, sued the NCAA in Oklahoma state court for alleged violation of his due process rights under the Oklahoma constitution arising out of his October 2015 one-year suspension from participation in intercollegiate athletics for testing positive for the banned substance clomiphene. Bledsoe\u2019s lawsuit claims he took one serving of a protein shake provided by an unnamed teammate and that he was unaware it contained a banned substance, but that the NCAA wrongfully denied his internal appeal. In defense, the NCAA maintains that it is not a state actor and participation in athletics is not a fundamental right protected by the Oklahoma Constitution.\nIn January 2018, the University of Arizona (UA) fired head football coach Rich Rodriguez after Melissa Wilhelmsen, his former administrative assistant, filed a $7.5 million notice of claim against him with the Arizona Attorney General\u2019s Office alleging he ran a hostile workplace and sexually harassed her.

        "raw_content": "Why WADA should reclassify cocaine as a \"specified substance\" - the inequitable case of Jos\u00e9 Paolo Guerrero\nPublished 19 December 2018 | Authored by: Paul J. Greene, Roy Vermeer\nSince the first World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited List was published in March 2004,1 the presence of cocaine in an athlete\u2019s urine sample has been deemed a more serious offense than the presence of other substances of abuse like cannabinoids or narcotics. While cannabinoids and narcotics have always been classified as \"specified substances\", or ones less likely to be used as a performance enhancer, cocaine has always been classified as a \"non-specified substance\", or one more likely to be used as a performance enhancer.2 As a \"non-specified substance\", cocaine is in the same category as anabolic steroids, testosterone and Human Growth Hormone.3 Cocaine is categorized as a non-specified substance despite studies done on the potential effects of cocaine use by athletes have shown repeatedly that cocaine use does not improve performance4 and anecdotal evidence from the jurisprudence that suggests cocaine is not being used by athletes to improve performance. 5\nThe classification of cocaine as a non-specified substance has significant consequences. The minimum sanction for a \"non-specified\" substance, such as cocaine, is 12 months (save for the extremely rare instance where an athlete\u2019s period ineligibility is eliminated because the athlete establishes that he or she bears no fault for the presence of cocaine in their body (i.e. the case of tennis player Richard Gasquet who tested positive for cocaine by kissing a woman).6 The minimum 12-month sanction for a cocaine positive (under the No Significant Fault or Negligence provision under the WADA Code (WADC)) is in stark contrast to the minimum sanction for a cannabinoids or narcotics positive, which is a warning. Moreover, despite the above noted issues an athlete cannot challenge the classification of cocaine as a \"non-specified substance\". Article 4.3.3 of the WADC provides:\n4.3.3 WADA\u2019s determination of the Prohibited Substances and Prohibited Methods that will be included on the Prohibited List, the classification of substances into categories on the Prohibited List, and the classification of a substance as prohibited at all times or In-Competition only, is final and shall not be subject to challenge by an Athlete or other Person based on an argument that the substance or method was not a masking agent or did not have the potential to enhance performance, represent a health risk or violate the spirit of sport.7 (emphasis added)\nThis article puts forward the authors\u2019 position that WADA should reclassify cocaine as a \"specified substance\". Specifically, with regards to the sport of football, it examines:\nThe case of Jos\u00e9 Paolo Guerrero;\nOther Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) cases that have wrestled with the sanctioning of footballers with the presence of cocaine in their body (Jobson Leandro Pereira de Oliveira; Brian Fern\u00e1ndez; Jos\u00e9 Enrique Angulo Caicedo; Adrian Mutu); and\nWhy WADA should introduce a new category of \"substances of abuse\" to deal with recreational drug use.\nThe case of Jos\u00e9 Paolo Guerrero at the Court of Arbitration for Sport\nThe CAS Panel that presided over the case of Peruvian football hero Jos\u00e9 Paolo Guerrero earlier this year noted cocaine\u2019s classification as a non-specified substance and the infallibility of that classification. The Guerrero CAS decision, which banned Mr. Guerrero for 14-months and overturned FIFA\u2019s decision to ban Mr. Guerrero for 6-months (despite accepting that a tea was the source of the cocaine metabolites and that Mr. Guerrero did not intend to enhance his performance) was released on 14 May as Mr. Guerrero was preparing to represent Peru in the World Cup which began a month later: 8\nEven though the classification of cocaine as a non-specified substance, in contrast to other plant-based prohibited substances which are classified as specified substances, is open to question, it must be recognized that the criteria for including substances on the WADA Prohibited List (and, implicitly, their classification within it) are the result of the application of rational criteria (see Article 4.3.1 WADC 2015) and a challenge to either is expressly proscribed (Article 4.3.3). The different classification designedly carries with it different consequences, which the Panel is not free to ignore.9\nThe Guerrero CAS Panel clearly wrestled with the inequity of cocaine\u2019s minimum 12-month sanction but determined in the end that it was required to adhere to the stricture of the WADC and the WADA Prohibited List:\n[T]he Panel cannot be tempted to breach the boundaries of the WADC (or FIFA ADR [Anti-Doping Rules]) because their application in a particular case may bear harshly on a particular individual. Legal certainty is an important principle to depart from the WADC would be destructive of it and involve endless debate as to when in future such departure would be warranted. A trickle could thus become a torrent; and the exceptional mutate into the norm.\nIt is in the Panel\u2019s view better, indeed necessary, for it to adhere to the WADC. If change is required, that is for a legislative body in the iterative process of review of the WADC, not an adjudicative body which has to apply the lex lata, and not some version of the lex ferenda.10\nWhile it was not up to the Guerrero CAS Panel to determine the \"lex ferenda\" or \"the law as it should be\"11 as compared to the \"lex lata\" or \"law as it is\"12 it is up to the WADA and its decision makers to determine the \"lex ferenda\" and whether cocaine\u2019s continued classification as a non-specified substance makes any sense.\nIn the authors\u2019 view, WADA\u2019s unfettered authority - which led to the inequitable Guerrero decision - also raises an important issue regarding the legitimacy of the anti-doping rules to begin with. In the authors\u2019 view, neither Mr. Guerrero \u2013 as a professional football player \u2013 nor the players\u2019 union collectively representing professional football players had a material say in the creation, execution or amendments to the WADC or the FIFA ADR, even though those rules affected his most fundamental (human) rights. This begs the questions: why should unilateral anti-doping rules apply to professional football players? And would the system be more just if the professional football players and their representatives played an active part in crafting the rules?\nIn the authors\u2019 view, without an active role, professional football players \u2013 as well as other athletes - will continue to be subject to inequitable sanctions like the 14-months given to Jos\u00e9 Paolo Guerrero for cocaine. To show how inexplicable this is, if Mr. Guerrero instead had tested positive for another substance of abuse, like a cannabinoid or narcotic (including heroine), he would have received a sanction of less than 3 months instead of 14 months.\nAnd the Jos\u00e9 Paolo Guerrero decision is not the first at the CAS to raise the issue of cocaine\u2019s uniquely harsh treatment by the WADA (and FIFA).\nThe Court of Arbitration for Sport has long wrestled with cocaine\u2019s classification as a non-specified substance in cases involving football players\nIn the 2010 case of Brazilian footballer Jobson Leandro Pereira de Oliveira, the CAS Panel sanctioned an athlete for 2-years after he tested positive for cocaine.13 WADA successfully argued it was irrelevant that an athlete might be addicted to cocaine or whether the drug had performance-enhancing effects since only WADA could decide to re-classify cocaine.14 While unsuccessful, the player\u2019s 2010 plea for a 6-month sanction is worth considering in light of the recent Guerrero Panel\u2019s call for a new look at cocaine\u2019s classification:\n\"First, a two-year suspension on this cocaine-addicted Player in treatment is not capable of safeguarding his physical health and mental integrity; on the contrary, it would \"undoubtedly endanger his health, and even maybe put his own life at risk\". Second, a two-year suspension would not be necessary to uphold and preserve the ethics of sport, to safeguard his and other player\u2019s physical health and integrity and to ensure that all competitors have an equal chance. Taking into account the lack of performance enhancing effects of cocaine, imposing a six-month suspension on the Player would be sufficient to reach the aforementioned aims. Third, the constraints from that the Player would suffer as a result of a two-year suspension imposed on him, a cocaine addicted person in treatment, would not be justified by the overall interest in upholding and preserving the ethics of sport, of safeguarding the physical health and mental integrity of players and of ensuring that all competitors have an equal chance\".15\nMr. Oliveira\u2019s call in 2010 to consider the health of an athlete who is addicted to cocaine is very prescient since a stated priority in the revision process to the WADC is an emphasis on health as a rationale. As the Summary of Major Proposed Changes for the 2021 WADC explains, \"health has been moved to the top of the list of rationales for the Code.\"16 Mr. Oliveira\u2019s other arguments are, in the authors\u2019 view, as equally as persuasive today: that the integrity of competition would not be harmed if cocaine were a \"specified substance\" since cocaine use does not enhance performance; and that a harsher ban for cocaine cannot be justified by the overall interest in upholding and preserving the ethics of sport since athletes receive lesser bans who knowingly ingest other substances of abuse.\nIn the 2016 case of Argentine footballer Brian Fern\u00e1ndez,17 the CAS Panel noted that WADA had considered creating a \"substances of abuse\" category that would have included cocaine and carried with it a sanction range of reprimand to 12-months but that WADA had rejected the proposal:\n\"In an initial version of the WADC (version 2.0) both drugs (Cannabinoids and Cocaine) were being treated together as \"Substances of Abuse\" making it clear that recreational drug use merits \"special treatment\". The (draft) provision dealing with \"Substances of Abuse\" (that provided a sanction in the range of a reprimand up to one year) was criticized by stakeholders in the revision process, in particular because it suggested rehabilitation at the expense of the athlete. Stakeholders feared that requiring an athlete to foot the bill for a rehabilitation program would result in discriminatory treatment among athletes with different financial means. Thus, the original concept of \"Substances of Abuse\" was dropped in the final version of the WADC with the consequence that the general provisions on fault-related reductions would apply to recreational drug use\".18\nWADA\u2019s rejection of the \"substances of abuse\" concept (and the idea of a 12-month maximum sanction for cocaine) meant that Mr. Fern\u00e1ndez was subject to a minimum 12-month sanction. Mr. Fern\u00e1ndez was sanctioned for 18-months after he admitted to intentionally using cocaine.19\nAnother example of the devastating nature of the current cocaine-sanctioning regime was the December 2017 decision involving Jos\u00e9 Enrique Angulo Caicedo, a 22-year old Ecuadorian football player who tested positive for cocaine. Following an appeal from FIFA against a decision of CONMEBOL to ban him for 12-months, a CAS Panel imposed a 4-year sanction on Mr. Angulo. The CAS Panel found that the explanations provided by Mr. Angulo on how the substance entered his body did not correspond with the scientific evidence in handing out a maximum ban.20 Mr. Angulo, who had just been transferred to the Spanish side Granada CF, saw his contract terminated because of the sanction imposed for his use of cocaine. It is not unthinkable that a 4-year suspension in football will end his career.\nObviously, sanctions imposed on players for anti-doping violations have massive consequences. For another example, one glance at the Adrian Mutu saga clearly shows that the consequences can be much more severe for a person than their mere suspension from playing football; in Mutu, his use of cocaine not only led to his suspension, but ultimately also to the termination of his employment contract and an award ordering Mutu to compensate Chelsea with an amount of EUR 17 million.\nTherefore, it is not difficult to conclude that the consequences of an anti-doping rule violation are far graver than the mere suspension itself. What is more, looking at a \"substance of abuse\" violation and the fact that the use of said substances can indeed be addictive, it is arguably the worst possible solution to exclude an addicted player from the last bit of order in his life (his work) and prevent him from making a living, whilst not offering him a suitable rehabilitation program in return. In that sense, the argumentation put forward in by the player in the Jobson Leandro Pereira de Oliveira case was, in the authors\u2019 view, spot on.\nWhy does WADA continue to classify cocaine as a non-specified substance that gives panels less flexibility when making a sanctioning decision?\nArticle 4.2.2 of the WADC explains that all prohibited substances are classified as \"specified substances\" except for substances in the classes of anabolic agents and hormones along with stimulants deemed to be \"non-specified\" on the Prohibited List.21 According to WADA, \"[t]he purpose of the sub-classifications of \"Specified\" or \"Non-Specified\" on the Prohibited List is to recognize that it is possible for a substance to enter an athlete\u2019s body inadvertently, and therefore allow a tribunal more flexibility when making a sanctioning decision\".22\nNo actual guidance exists, however, on why WADA considers cocaine to be a \"non-specified\" substance that allows panels less flexibility when making a sanctioning decision. After all, it is possible for cocaine to enter an athlete\u2019s body inadvertently and, in fact, the Guerrero Panel found that Mr. Guerrero inadvertently ingested cocaine metabolites while drinking tea in Peru. By the same logic, cannabinoids and narcotics should also be non-specified since intentional use of those substances is likely in most cases.\nStill, when the 2019 Prohibited List goes into effect on January 1st, cocaine will remain a non-specified substance that carries with it a minimum 12-month sanction. The next opportunity to reclassify cocaine as a \"specified substance\" will be the 2020 Prohibited List. WADA\u2019s annual revision process for 2020 will begin with an initial meeting in January and conclude with the publication of the 2020 Prohibited List on 1 October 2019. Between January and October, 2019, WADA\u2019s Prohibited List Expert Group23 will provide a list of recommended changes to the Prohibited List to WADA\u2019s Health, Medical and Research Committee24 who will ultimately make recommendations to the WADA Executive Committee during its September 2019 meeting on the changes to the 2020 Prohibited List.\nWADA must reclassify cocaine so that it is no longer a \"non-specified substance\"\nIn the authors\u2019 opinion, given the Guerrero Panel\u2019s open questioning of the classification of cocaine as a non-specified substance, the WADA Prohibited List Expert Group should take a hard look at the current classification of cocaine and ask itself why cocaine continues to be classified as a drug that carries with it an inequitably harsh sanction.\nIn the authors\u2019 view, it is difficult to establish what actually has been gained with the 14-month suspension of Mr. Guerrero and with the suspensions of athletes for the use of cocaine in general. Indeed, it is hard to find any \"winners\" in the Guerrero case: the national team of Peru could not initially call up Mr. Guerrero for the FIFA World Cup in Russia and had to rely on upon an appeal to the Swiss Federal Tribunal to permit Mr. Guerrero to play;25 Mr. Guerrero\u2019s current club in Brazil cannot use the player\u2019s services, the fans are prevented from seeing Mr. Guerrero feature; and, Mr. Guerrero himself is not able to practice his job for 14 months. Moreover, no anti-doping protection or deterrent effect is achieved given that the CAS Panel recognized that Mr. Guerrero did not intend to enhance his performance and that, thus, the integrity of competitions was not at risk in any manner. The latter point is probably best illustrated by the letter sent by the captains of France, Australia and Denmark \u2013 the competitors of Peru during the FIFA World Cup \u2013 requesting FIFA to allow Mr. Guerrero to partake in the tournament.26 Hence, not even \"football\", the anti-doping movement or the competitors of Mr. Guerrero were \"winners\" since no benefit was gained by either Mr. Guerrero or his team that would have been prevented through a suspension.\nApart from a variety of other amendments, the 2021 WADC should, in the authors\u2019 opinion, be revised to include a \"substance of abuse\" category that includes cocaine. At the least, this \"substance of abuse\" category should create a new sanctioning regime establishing a range of sanctions, starting from a warning, up to a short and equitable suspension, for the ingestion of cocaine depending on the circumstances of each particular case. As far as it concerns professional football, the foregoing would also be in line with the agreed principle of \"individual case management\" as agreed between FIFA and FIFPro in 2017.\nHowever, ideally, the authors believe WADA should create a \"substance of abuse\" category that follows the lead of the NHL/NHLPA collectively bargained substance abuse program where an athlete who tests positive for a substance of abuse would not even commit an anti-doping rule violation, but rather be sent to a rehabilitation program for substance abuse and behavioral health to deter future abuse. Such a program would initially not lead to any suspension or income-loss provided that the player would follow the rehabilitation program. The creation of a bold WADA \"substance of abuse\" program would be in keeping with its new emphasis on health as a rationale for the WADC.\nThe WADA committee charged with drafting the final version of the 2021 Code has proposed a \"substance of abuse\" category that seemingly seeks to address the \"cocaine issue\". While it would ultimately be up to the WADA Prohibited List Expert Group to decide that cocaine is a \"substance of abuse\", the current sanctioning regime for cocaine is recognized as a problem, which is at least a start, as is the proposal that there be a three month period of ineligibility for substances of abuse that could be reduced even further for athletes who complete a rehabilitation program. However, WADA\u2019s proposed method to deal with the \"cocaine issue\" is still based on the premise that \"cocaine can clearly have a performance enhancing effect when used in competition\". 27 As previously mentioned, the idea that cocaine enhances performance is far from settled scientifically. Moreover, as currently proposed, the burden would be on the athlete to prove that the use of a substance of abuse was unrelated to sport performance and therefore \"did not enhance\" that athlete\u2019s performance. Unless the athlete can prove this, the normal sanctioning regime that Mr. Guerrero was subject to would still apply. And just because a substance of abuse category is proposed in the drafting process does not mean it will end up in the final version of the 2021 Code. As the Fern\u00e1ndez CAS Panel noted, prior attempts to create a substances of abuse category have failed.\nIn the authors\u2019 view, even if this proposal is adopted as part of the 2021 Code, unless WADA does something to address cocaine\u2019s classification as a \"non-specified substance\" more inequitable sanctions like the 14-month sanction imposed on Mr. Guerrero will undoubtedly lie ahead in the future. It is high time for the \"lex lata\" to match the \"lex ferenda\" on this issue.\n1\u2020 World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List (2004).\n2\u2020 World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List (2018), https://www.wada-ama.org/sites/default/files/prohibited_list_2018_en.pdf (last accessed 19 Dec 2018)\n3\u2020 Pursuant to the WADA Technical Document TD2018MRPL, cocaine has a reporting limit of 50 nanograms per milliliter, meaning that the presence of cocaine or its metabolite in an amount under 50 nanograms per milliliter in an athlete\u2019s urine is not an anti-doping rule violation.\n4\u2020 Recreational drug use and sport: Time for a WADA rethink? Waddington, et al. (2013) at 2.\n5\u2020 For example: ITF v. Gasquet, CAS 2009/A/1926 & 2009/A/1930 as well as Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport v.

See also WADA v./ USADA & Thompson, CAS 2008/A/1490, in which an 18-year old athlete consumed a small amount of cocaine on a high school graduation party and where the Panel held that there was a \"lack of intention to influence or enhance his performance at the relevant time\".\n6\u2020 See ITF v. Gasquet, CAS 2009/A/1926 & 2009/A/1930. In Gasquet, an athlete who tested positive for cocaine had his period ineligibility eliminated pursuant to Article 10.4 of the Code (No Fault or Negligence) because the athlete could not reasonably have known or suspected even with the exercise of utmost caution that he would test positive for cocaine by kissing a woman in a Miami nightclub. See also Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport v.

        "raw_content": "Though I had taped this video in January, 2010, I had actually intended to post my cover for \"How Can You Mend a Broken Heart\", two weeks ago. My original intentions were preempted by very unique circumstances. The last two weeks deserved special attention, for good reasons. Now, I can return to my regularly scheduled programming. =|\nI'd like to say that this week turns the emotional corner, towards happier sentiments. But, instead, I'm going to share with all of you, a little bit about the very bottom that my heart had ever dwelled. This is very different from the experience of losing my mom. This is about losing myself to personal despair. As a point of reference, this took place during the second week of August, 1998. My mom was still alive and unfortunately, my mom, my dad, and my sister, were worried sick about me. Yet, they respected my choices, and suffered silently, while I went on a journey of personal rediscovery. This period of time represented the most significant turning point in my life, at all levels - the most revelatory moments that would define the rest of my life. Obviously, I'm not going to share with any of you, all of the details. But, I will, at least, set the tone, and paint a part of the picture, just clear enough for all of you to understand where I was coming from. Of course, this all leads up to the video that you have already experienced, or, are about to experience. And so, it goes something like this ...\nTurning 30, was the very worst for me. The worstest. I turned 30 in January, 1998. I didn't have any preordained intentions of feeling hollow, but, I swear; I woke up on my birthday, feeling exactly that. I'll tell you that it had something to do with being single, but it also had to do with so much more. I will address the part about being \"single\". I will NOT address the part about \"so much more\". I had been single since the summer of 1996, right before my 10th high school reunion. I did go, by the way. It was a blast! I went on a lot of dates over the course of those two years, and no, I did NOT sow my oats. I was looking for THE woman, with whom, I would spend the rest of my life. I met very nice women, but none were THE ONE. By the summer of 1998, I had taken some actions that I will always bury within me - NO, my actions were NOT criminal, or, self-deprecating - they were just actions that brought me personal shame - and I will NEVER share. Don't even try. Don't. By the summer of 1998, I had muddled through the depths of my darkness and felt that, if I sank any further, I wasn't sure if I would ever return to the place that I should be. During the first week of August, one morning at work, I approached my kind and soft-spoken employer. I didn't request. I told him that I was going on a road trip, by myself. I was leaving on Saturday morning for one week, and return to work, the following Monday. In his kind manner, he nodded, and never said a word. I told my family that I was going on a road trip, by myself. I was leaving on Saturday morning for one week, and return back home, the following Sunday. \"Don't call. Don't worry. Just, let me be.\" They did. A dark hole burned in my heart when I said those words to my mom. I knew that she would be losing sleep and praying, nonstop, for me. But, I had to do this. If I didn't, I was scared of what might come next. So, I packed a bag. I brought my guitar, that I had just started learning how to play. I stopped by a store in Fife, WA. and bought my first video camera. From that point forward, I burned through (15) ninety minute tapes. My cover of the Bee Gees' \"How Can You Mend a Broken Heart\" sets the emotional tone for how I was feeling as I drove to God knows where. Just remember that I was feeling despair during that journey. The few video clips used for this week's video represent seemingly normal moments of that time. You just can't hear what I was ACTUALLY screaming about during those seemingly normal moments. The last point that I want to make about that entire experience is that, even though I was drowning in my personal despair, I always had a lifeline tied around my soul. I NEVER LOST HOPE.\n\"How Can You Mend a Broken Heart\" is a power ballad released by the Bee Gees in 1971. The song had been written by Barry and Robin Gibb in August 1970, when the Gibb brothers had reconvened following a period of break-up and alienation. They said that they originally offered it to Andy Williams, but ultimately the Bee Gees recorded it themselves and included it on their 1971 album, Trafalgar. The song was recorded on 28 January 1971 in London. The instrumental track is: Barry Gibb (guitar), Maurice Gibb (guitar, piano, bass guitar), possibly Alan Kendall (guitar), and Geoff Bridgeford (drums), with strings and woodwinds arranged and conducted by Bill Shepherd.\nI NEVER LOST HOPE.\nErwin Lazaro Angels Among Us Erwin Lazaro, How Can You Mend a Broken Heart ,Bee Gees,Barry Gibb,Robin Gibb,Barry Manilow,Al Green,Joss Stone,Teddy Pendergrass,Steve Brookstein,Michael Bubl\u00e9,Diana Krall,Cher,Rod Stewart,romantic ballads,Erwin,Lazaro,cglazaro100",

All students are encouraged to become involved with initiatives and discussions at a unit, programme and college-wide level. To ensure ongoing communications with students, the following opportunities and schemes are in place.\nThe Student Council provides students with the opportunity to engage in conversations and inform management of quality assurance and the enhancement of study programmes as well as the student experience.\nThe Student Council Scheme is run by the Student Council President and a team of student representatives who provide leadership to the LCCA student body and represent them.\nIf you\u2019re interested, here\u2019s how the process works:\nAt the beginning of the academic year, within each of our courses, students select representatives, known as Student Council Members. Students will also need to appoint a Deputy Student Council Member, who will work closely with the Student Council Member to share responsibilities. The Student President and Deputy President are elected by the student body after an election campaign in which candidates set out their aims and objectives.\nThe role of Student Council Members is to collect feedback from their class and present it to Heads of School and senior management in regular meetings and committees organised throughout the year. A training session available for Student Council Members, where additional explanation and information is provided to ensure you have an understanding of your responsibilities and how the college supports you in your role.\nMore information about the Student Council Scheme is available to students in the Student Representative Handbook and Student Engagement Handbook, which can be collected from the Student Engagement team. For further information, you can email lccastudentcouncil@lcca.org.uk.\nStudent Council Forum\nThe purpose of this meeting is to discuss student engagement initiatives and to gather feedback on operational matters from student council members. It is also an opportunity for the college to provide responses to the points raised by students. This meeting takes place six times per year.\nCourse Team Meetings\nStudent representatives, who are also members of the Student Council, attend regular team meetings chaired by their Programme Manager and have the opportunity to engage in a review and discussion of matters arising from teaching and learning.\nStudent Engagement and Enhancement Forum\nThis forum provides an opportunity for all students to engage directly with senior college managers on issues that are important to their student experience. It is an excellent opportunity to provide feedback that will help improve college services and the overall student experience.\nThis forum is organised twice per year and students across all programmes are invited to attend.\nCourse Focus Group\nAllows students to meet with Programme Managers and course lecturers to discuss matters of mutual interest.\nYou Said We Did Feedback\nLCCA is committed to enhancing the student experience, and we work in partnership with students to improve our services and the overall student experience in the college.\nChanges within the college are being made as a response to students\u2019 ideas, suggestions and feedback gathered via regular surveys, meetings and committees organised throughout the academic year. The feedback provided through posters and online emphasises the importance of student opinions and views in the decision-making process within the college.\nYou have the chance to provide your suggestions, recommendations and ideas regarding the day to day running of your course by making use of the suggestion boxes located in the and Student Lounge.\nOther Meetings and Committees\nStudent representatives are invited to provide feedback on various matters affecting their experience in the college by attending other meetings that take place regularly throughout the academic year. These meetings are the School Board Meeting, Quality Committee and Academic Board.",

        "title": "How Can I Address the Conflict that Lean Creates?",
        "raw_content": "> Gemba Coach> How Can I Address the Conflict that Lean Creates?\nHow Can I Address the Conflict that Lean Creates?\nI have just finished reading The Lean Manager, and I was very taken by the chapter on teamwork. I am a lean officer in a bank and have been working with back-office processes for the past two years. We have had good successes on the sites, but the general feeling is that lean has increased conflict with other departments. Have you any advice on how to address this?\nGreat question, although I'm not sure this Gemba coach is the best placed person in the world to give relationship advice! As always, let's frame the question by doing what we always do as a first step: go to the Gemba. Let's observe the work as a way to see how (and why) lean can increase internal conflict rather than generate teamwork. You are not the only person, by the way, who faces this challenge. Virtually everyone tackling lean in earnest discovers increased conflict, even in the midst of real progress!\nIn order to visualize back office processes in your bank I\u2019ll draw from an office I am familiar with. You have employees working in a open plan area. Each has a clear job such as transcribing forms (such as funds transfer) into the computer, and clearing the transaction. Doing lean in such a work environment focuses on 1) figuring out and sorting out the flow of work through the office and 2) solving all causes of variation that affect operators in order to increase the number of \"right first time\" operations, which can dramatically affect productivity.\nThe primary interruptions of flow and sources of variation in these settings stem from internal causes: the printer doesn't work, or never has the right cartridge, colleagues must work with unclear of incomplete customer forms, or (deep breath) the information technology does not work the way it should - though let's not get started on software problems. Problems increase when dealing with other departments, which have not been involved with the lean programs. Workers in these departments won't prioritize a flurry of requests that may matter for your lean efforts yet whose purpose is not clear to them. And then, when these problems are not addressed, e-mails become insistent, arguments go up the food chain, and the previously polite relationship deteriorates. We feel that on top of being generally incompetent they have become sullen and resentful, and so are not able to 1) affect the least little change to what they do 2) get it right when we finally get them to do something. And they, on the other hand, come to believe that these lean zealots are getting self-important, are constantly making unreasonable requests, and have no idea of how much work pressure we're already under. Any natural common ground dissolves. Once the \"lean\" side made the assessment that the others are basically incompetent, and the receiving end thinks that the \"lean\" guys are unreasonable and unbearably arrogant, it's indeed difficult to de-escalate and repair the relationship. Everyone is the hero of their own movie.\nSo what\u2019s going on here? To start with, let's have a theory. Every work situation has two basic components: the deal (the work exchange) and the relationship (attitudes such as good will or annoyance towards co-workers). These two dimensions are intimately linked. Any change in the deal will affect the relationship. Conversely, the nature of the relationship will often make or break deals. How will lean impact this? First, the deal.\nAs Steven Spear has shown, lean work has the effect of clarifying and specifying:\nSystem: what does the organization produce and deliver (mix, volume, timing) for whom?\nPathway: who creates what output (product, service, or information) for whom?\nConnection: how do customers and suppliers communicate requests and responses?\nActivities: how do people or machines produce or deliver outputs for which they are responsible given the connections they have with immediate customers and suppliers.\nIn practice, not only is work more specified, but problems are highlighted, which causes pressure to treat them now! This becomes a fundamentally new sort of challenge when these problems involve other departments. Whereas before, the interaction was an \"over the wall\" exchange where other folks could do this job whenever they got to it, moving to a pull system forces things to get done right away (because if not we won't be able to deliver to our customers), and getting done right the first time (because if not we will have to waste a lot of time with back-and-forths and not be doing something else instead). Furthermore, priorities change radically: now, small things must be straightened out right away, and worry about the big reorganizations can be dealt with later. This is fundamental change in the way most organizations work.\nHow does that affect the relationship? Just as lean exposes waste in processes, it also surfaces conflicts. Previously, the relationship within the value chain was well buffered with walls and stocks or waiting queues. Folks dealt with each other on a mostly social basis. You're polite with each other, and chummy up at the canteen with the people you like, largely ignoring those you don\u2019t. It's essentially a pact of non-agression: you have no say in the way I work, so I won\u2019t either and every one tries to get along.\nKaizen typically will challenge this status quo. By focusing on internal customer-supplier relationship, suddenly, all our actions are linked. We all have something to say about how our colleagues work inasmuch as it affects our own delivery. Lean practice requires every individual everywhere to develop common ownership of problems. How to do this if they won't play ball? And to be fair, why should they when you've suddenly and brutally destroyed a departmental truce that has been in place since the beginning of time? Unfortunately, most initial efforts to \"make things work\" only worsens the situation. Frustrated with the lack of progress, the lean coach pulls the only lever he has by going up the food chain to complain about lack of cooperation. Senior managers react as senior managers do, they give a stern talking to their subordinates, which reinforces the hard done by feeling of its not fair.\nSo how could be possibly try to address this? There are no hard and fast answers. First, let's apply lean thinking to ourselves. What would be the test criteria for a \"good working relationship\"? Again, there is no particular lean dogma on the subject. Here are the four criteria I use as a rule of thumb to evaluate working relationships:\nAccuracy: in production this means sending good parts on time. How does this translate to information flows? Essentially this means that you exchange the information needed to move your own work one step further. It turns out that many work exchanges are very vague about what this means. Even when you get specific numbers out of your colleagues, unless they've understood what you want to do (what\u2019s your purpose), the way the information is cherry-picked or formatted will not help you, and cause a flurry of e-mail exchanges to get to the right format.\nAvailability: in his early stand-up days, Woody Allen described a dog-eat-dog world as \"dog doesn\u2019t answer phone calls\" world. It's gotten significantly worse now that you have e-mail. We expect all our colleagues to be immediately available and to answer that e-mail in the hour, or in the day. Longer than that and we feel that the message is clear: you\u2019re less important than others to whom I am answering to quickly. The leaner you get, the greater the importance of speed of response. Of course, quick answers are easier if there is a system in place to generate the answer, and, in time the system itself can eliminate the need for the exchange. But availability has to be recognized as a genuine concern by both parties in the relationship. Start by establishing a standard response time to avoid unnecessary annoyance.\nAttitude: the basic attitude of lean is \"problems first\": every concern, from everyone, is legitimate and we'll take it seriously. This doesn't mean immediately resolving the problem, but it does mean immediately looking into it and doing what can be done. Not out of moral grandeur, but because this is the essential oil that makes processes work across functional barriers. No one is going to argue against a \"positive\" attitude, but across departments, it's easy to consider that the colleagues on the other side of the wall should take care of their own affairs and are not legitimate in addressing problems in our area. Once attitudes start off on the wrong foot, it\u2019s hard to recapture, as resentment build resentment and so on.\nAdvice: indeed, that's the clincher of any good working relationship. work productivity increases tenfold when people accept advice across functional boundaries, and when this advice is sensible. One the biggest problems about individuals who are not are not very good at what they do (often because they\u2019re in a poorly managed environment) is that they are also very rigid about listening to other points of view (reminding one of another joke quoted by Woody Allen, about the food at a Catskills resort: terrible food\u2014and such small portions too!). It\u2019s important to recognize how challenged individuals feel when approached about their work, and how powerless they often feel about making change. Confronting experiences and points of view, particularly on your own work, is an essential source of progress - and core to lean learning (hence the emphasis on teamwork).\nThis four A approach to specifying the relationship isn't specifically \"lean\" and few people would argue against them being a good thing in any work relationship. The power of specifying the relationship in these terms is that now some relational issues are actionable. To being with, you, as a lean coach, can start assessing how you fare on these four criteria. It takes two to tango, and the start of addressing the problem is taking responsibility for your part of the problem.\nHaving done the exercises on yourself and having gained a deeper understanding of what these criteria mean in your own work environment, it's time to bite the bullet and go to the boss with this. The idea here is not to get any department to do anything, but to get the four As accepted as valid criteria for working across functional department in the organization. If this gets okay-ed, as a lean coach, it's legitimate to come up with a self-assessment for each department to do on how they see their relationships with other services on the basis of these criteria.\nAnd then hope for the best.\nAs Chris Argyris has shown, deep problems in organizations can remain unaddressed for so long that they ultimately lead a company to disaster. That's because they become taboo subjects to discuss at first; and then, over time, the fact that they have become taboo becomes taboo as well. They grow into undiscuss-able problems, which, because they cannot even be framed productively, can not be dealt with. Many cultural and historical and political factors contribute to this. What's important here is recognizing this dynamic and finding ways to expose problems and use lean practice to tee them up in a way that they can be addressed.\nThe long and short of it is that in applying lean thinking to the relationship part of work we should 1) treat all relationships as if they were long term and 2) specify the nature of the relationship in greater detail, just as we've specified the work element and the triggers to move work from one step to the next.\nA the end of the day, the way to improve relationships, as with everything else in lean - starts with knowing enough about relationships to be able to build a PDCA cycle on the problem. The 4 As are a good place to start to build a check, but only the starting place. Every situation is different, and every person is different, so each action plan has to be individualized - but usually people prefer getting along to adversarial, so there is hope!",

        "title": "\"Stop the Line\" in a Hospital \u2013 Lean Blog",
        "raw_content": "\u201cStop the Line\u201d in a Hospital\nBy Mark Graban\t On Mar 13, 2009 Last updated May 29, 2014\nToday it's Toyota, tomorrow the NHS; Hospital looks to adopt safety initiative\nThe concept of any worker being able to stop the line in a Toyota plant is a key part of the quality strategy.\nIn traditional manufacturing settings, management will pressure workers to keep the line running at all costs \u2014 quantity over quality. If defects are being made, keep the line running and you'll sort them out at the end of the line (through inspection and repair). It's a failed quality strategy because it ultimately costs more and potentially leads to more customer dissatisfaction than if you had just stopped the line to immediately fix the problem and prevent more defects from being made.\nIn a Toyota plant, this is called an \u201candon cord\u201d, a line that the worker can grab to notify the team leader (supervisor) that there is a problem. This could be a quality defect or any problem (such as dropping a bolt). If the supervisor can't help resolve the problem in the job cycle, the line stops (often, pulling the cord does not really lead to a line stoppage because the problem is fixed immediately).\nIt's great to see that hospitals are starting to adopt this quality philosophy \u2014 empowering healthcare workers to \u201cstop the line\u201d or stop the process to make sure an error is not going to occur. For example, if a tech in the operating room suspects that the wrong patient has been brought in, they can call a time out and raise the issue.\nIn the article linked to at the top of the post, some hospitals in the UK are using this \u201cstop the line\u201d strategy:\nAlthough planning is in the very early stages, it is thought a check-list for procedures would be highlighted and an employee who believed routine was not being adhered to could page a senior member of staff to call for immediate assistance.\nGateshead Queen Elizabeth hospital's medical director and surgeon, Bill Cunliffe said: \u201cWe want to empower all members of staff and we place a strong emphasis on patient safety.\n\u201cJunior members of staff can lack confidence in approaching senior members if they see or feel a medical procedure is not being done right.\n\u201c\u2018Stop the Line' would empower all staff to take action and literally stop a procedure in its tracks in order to prevent a mistake being made.\u201d\nThis isn't just similar thinking, it is inspired directly by a visit to Toyota in Japan:\nThe idea for the process came when health officials sent a delegation to Japan last year to discover ways of increasing efficiency in the health service.\nThe group, made up of senior doctors and chief executives, visited Toyota to see the management systems that have made it the world's biggest carmaker.\nThe picture below shows a similar document from a U.S. hospital. This was in an employee newsletter, so I'm assuming it's not public. The hospital deserves credit \u2014 I'm not blacking out names to protect the guilty, by any means. Click on the photo for a larger view and this hospital's use of the approach.\nStaff members are taught to stop and ask, \u201cI need some clarity\u2026\u201d Stop and ask immediately. I'd be curious to see what action hospital administrators would take if someone tries this and isn't listened to. What's the immediate escalation process if a surgeon refuses to stop or acknowledge the stop the line request? The article says the leaders are fully committed\u2026. I hope so.\nThis is far superior to another hospital I visited in late 2007 that had an \u201candon\u201d type process. The thing I didn't like about that process was that it wasn't real time. Employees could send an email or call a voice mail line AFTER the procedure. That's too late. That's not stopping the line. I like the approach shown in the picture that teaches people to stop NOW and ask questions NOW. Even if you're wrong in the question (thinking there was an error when there was no error), that slight delay in the name of safety has got to be better than being quiet when you think something is going wrong.\nWhat's your hospital doing in this regard?\nError ProofingHealthcareOperating RoomPatient Safety\nFree \"Training Within Industry\" Intro Webinar\nInterview with Productivity Press\nBryan says 10 years ago\nThis happened just last night on ER. All of the old cast was back, which probably raked in the highest ratings for the show in years. Anyway, Dr. Benton observed Dr. Carter\u2019s kidney transplant. The surgeon was late, arrogant, short on time and didn\u2019t like people watching over him. Dr. Benton, stood his ground and asked to cover the pre-op checklist, much to the ridicule of the surgeon.\nIt\u2019s a good thing he did, later in the show, the kidney had to be removed and treated in a solution that was found to be absent in the operating room only by running through the checklist. Dr. Benton used that as a teaching moment to ask a nurse, how long would it would have taken to get the solution if it wasn\u2019t in the room? 15 minutes. How long could the kidney last without the solution? 3 minutes. Carter lives! Three cheers for Dr. Benton!\nAs I watched the show, I couldn\u2019t help but think that this was a message for all of us \u2013 we can throw all the government money at healthcare that we want. But the QUALITY of healthcare often comes down to human nature and our willingness to do the right things. Doctors are people too, they get impatient, have bad days and forget things \u2013 just like the rest of us.\nAnother point, this was a problem that government regulated healthcare won\u2019t catch. This, like the millions of problems people face everyday can ONLY be found in the genba.\nEven if the government imposed checklists, we know people won\u2019t use them because of resistance and resentment. Therefore, the only thing that is going to improve healthcare are the people working in the industry. The systems they create are constant reminders, encouraging them to do the right things when we face adversity in it infinite forms.\nI know you have praised the merits of checklists in the past as a form of healthcare standard work and hope we get to see a lot more of that as people improve their systems.\nWilliam Pond says 5 years ago\nNot a good idea to use a scientifically inaccurate television show as a basis for comments. Communications about quality are good, and the surgeons I know respond appropriately to legitimate concerns.\nIt\u2019s also not very scientific to generalize about an entire population based on \u201csurgeons I know,\u201d either.\nThere are many peer-reviewed journal articles that talk about the widespread problem of bad behavior amongst surgeons and physicians.\nNot all behave badly, of course.\nBryan \u2013 thanks for the tip and sharing the story about the show. My wife DVRs it but I don\u2019t normally watch. I certainly will this week.\nLean Projects | Unarium | Take your applications to the next level 6 years ago\n[\u2026] teams have the concept of stop the line, where the team gets together to make sure the pipeline clears up for the next features to be [\u2026]\nUnarium | Lean Projects 6 years ago\nThis Doctor is Upset About Something, But It Doesn\u2019t Really Sound Like Lean | Lean Blog 3 years ago\n[\u2026] happens is an employee \u201cpulls the andon cord\u201d to point out the problem.

        "title": "What does mediation involve and are there any drawbacks?",
        "raw_content": "Start / Articles / What does mediation involve and are there any drawbacks?\nWhat does mediation involve and are there any drawbacks?\nQ. \u2018An employee contacted the Labour Relations Agency, the LRA, and wanted to take her and another employee that she\u2019s fallen out with through mediation. Frankly, we just want the backbiting to stop. It\u2019s causing a terrible atmosphere in the office. What does mediation involve and are there any drawbacks?\u2019\nSeamus: This was the first thing I want to mention about this is we have a proactive employee that has approached the LRA and wants to go down the line of mediation. The most appropriate step for that employee is to approach their employer and give that indication because the key with mediation is that you have to have two willing parties that are willing to engage in mediation.\nSo, the employer can\u2019t force the employee to engage in mediation. They can certainly encourage and explain the process and what the potential benefits of it would be, but they can\u2019t force it. So, this employee has to approach the LRA directly. But really, they should be going to either HR or to their line manager and advising that there is an issue and they want to resolve it that way.\nScott: Of course, you need the other employee to agree as well. You can have mediation between two employees, but both of them have to agree to go along. And it\u2019s a very confidential situation. So, the employer won\u2019t probably know what the outcome is other than they\u2019ve settled their differences, unless there\u2019s a requirement for some kind of training or anger management or whatever it happens to be between the two employees that comes out of the mediation process itself. So, the employer is taking on trust that in this case, the LRA has mediators, but it could be others that will do the job to bring them together. But the process works.\nSeamus: I\u2019ve used it. In terms of mediation, this question is about what it involves and are there any drawbacks to it. Most of the policies that you\u2019ll see in respect of those grievances will automatically have built into them clauses that say mediation is an option and if you\u2019d like to go down the route of mediation, that can be facilitated.\nCertainly, I\u2019ve used the Labour Relations Agency in terms of mediation and that has been excellent. It doesn\u2019t always work and you have to accept the limitations in terms of mediation, but my experience has been that it has been very positive through the Labour Relations Agency and they\u2019ll bring the two employees in. They\u2019ll meet with them separately. They\u2019ll get an indication from both employees as to what the issues are, what the problems are.\nOften these are communication problems between employees. Often, one employee will not understand what it is they\u2019re doing that is annoying or frustrating the other employee. Sometimes you will get it where both employees know exactly how to push each other\u2019s buttons but there will be root issue and a problem there and really the key for mediation is to find what is the bud of the issue here, how do the issues arise and how can we go about resolving it?\nMy experience with it has been that there is that separate process that starts, whether the mediator will meet with the party separately. Then there will be an attempt to bring the parties together. So, once the mediator gets to what the reasoning is, they\u2019ll bring the parties together and they\u2019ll have a discussion in and around what might be the best way to resolve those issues. The beauty about mediation is you can really think and step outside the box.\nIf your alternative to mediation is going through a lengthy, arduous, difficult grievance process where there\u2019s going to be possibly one winner, one loser or no winners, it\u2019s certainly the better option and I think it\u2019s always worth an attempt. I\u2019ve certainly been in positions where I\u2019ve advised clients who have said, \u2018Mediation is never going to work. We\u2019re wasting our time with this,\u2019 and they\u2019re very surprised at the outcome in relation to it. In terms of drawbacks . . .\nScott: There are none. It\u2019s fantastic. I\u2019m a mediator, folks. If you want to know more about it, we actually have three videos interviewing Dorcas Crawford, who\u2019s a well-known mediator in Belfast. You\u2019ll find it on the website, just type in \u2018mediation\u2019 and the reviews will come up in the resources section as well.\nThere may be a drawback. Eventually, the solution is in the hands of the two protagonists.\nSeamus: Absolutely.\nScott: They have their work cut out. They don\u2019t lose any rights. So, if they want to go through a grievance procedure, they can. In this situation, it would solve an employer from having to deal with an interpersonal dispute. So, there are very few drawbacks there. There\u2019s no real cost. So, if you go outside the LRA, there may be a cost for the mediator and the employer normally pays for that. You don\u2019t pay for the LRA, but there\u2019s a bit of delay at the moment but they\u2019re free.\nSeamus: Yeah.\nScott: There are very few drawbacks, but you\u2019re going to come up with one.\nSeamus: The only really drawback is not engaging in mediation in the first place. That\u2019s the main drawback from it. The benefit of it as well for the employer is it\u2019s an entirely confidential process. Sometimes within mediation, the employer will be involved and they\u2019ll be there on a third party basis for the mediator to bring the employer in at the right time, which is usually at the end, but usually it\u2019s a very confidential process.\nThe employees can speak freely to the mediator. They don\u2019t have to worry about breaches in confidentiality. Any of the mediations that I\u2019ve done, the first thing that you do is sign a confidentiality agreement all parties agree to. The drawbacks are essentially it can fill you full of hope and it can fill you full of . . .\nScott: Disappointment.\nSeamus: Disappointment when it doesn\u2019t work out. Sometimes, this is life. It sometimes doesn\u2019t work out. I suppose the cases where it doesn\u2019t work out is when you know you have a serious problem within your work place. As the employer, it\u2019s better to know that. It\u2019s better to know that from mediation than it is from going through a grievance process and trying to navigate your way through the relationship of two different employees all together.\nMy experience has always been good. I\u2019ve used the LRA on a private capacity and I\u2019ve done it with others from the bar library in terms of resolving cases. My experience of it is the majority of time it does work out to some extent, but there are those occasions it doesn\u2019t and it\u2019s back to that point because you can bring the horse to the water, you can\u2019t force the horse to drink the water.\nScott: My experience is people are at least left better off in forum. They understand the other person\u2019s point of view. Even if it\u2019s not resolved . . . I\u2019ve noticed a number of ones where it doesn\u2019t resolve on the date, but they go away and think about it and do their own agreement. We\u2019ll leave it there.",

As the holidays come and go and we\u2019re out purchasing and exchanging gifts, it\u2019s important to be aware of which toys, tools, and other items can cause harm to their recipient. Read the rest \u00bb\nThe Unexpected Ways Your Cell Phone Could Harm You\nYou know that you are more likely to be injured if you use your phone while driving or walking. In fact, the level of danger is probably worse than you think. Read the rest \u00bb\nToy safety has been a growing concern over the last few decades, as more and more stories hit the news about unsafe paint, materials, and designs that can harm children. While nothing in life is guaranteed to be safe, responsible manufacturers have a duty to produce products that children can enjoy without harm.\nThere are government agencies in place to protect your child from dangerous toys, but ultimately, you are the last line of defense to ensure their health and well-being. Read the rest \u00bb\nRecall on Faulty Bicycle Shock Absorbers\nMountain bikes are expensive pieces of equipment, and cyclists depend on the quality of their manufacturing. If something goes wrong while riding, cyclists are at risk of serious injury or even death. Shock absorbers are a critical component of mountain bikes that ensure a smooth ride on difficult terrain. Read the rest \u00bb\nToy Safety this Holiday Season\nThe holidays are a time for families to celebrate together, especially families with young children. Lifelong memories can be created and traditions are passed on from generation to generation. Unfortunately, some families found the holidays to be a time to fear for the safety of their children. This may have been due to the discovery of the potential risks of injury or worse due to defective and poorly designed toys the children received over the holiday season.\nIn this day and age of heightened safety concerns, it would be impossible to imagine someone driving with a small child who wasn\u2019t secured in a car seat for protection. But it actually wasn\u2019t that long ago that no one used car seats. Read the rest \u00bb\nSamsung Galaxy Note 7 Recall\nHere at Lependorf & Silverstein, P.C., we firmly believe that product manufacturers have an obligation to market safe products to the public. Fortunately for consumers, this belief is also the law, but there are still companies who do not follow the rules. Releasing products before extensively testing them is dangerous, and can easily result in injuries among consumers, and even deaths. Keep reading to learn about the recent Samsung Galaxy Note 7 recall and how it impacts consumers.\nDeath Count Rises to 67 in GM Ignition Switch Car Wrecks\nAt least 67 people have lost their lives in crashes caused by defective ignition switches in General Motors vehicles, and their families will receive compensation from the company, according to a recent report from CBS News.\nAnother 113 people who were injured in ignition-switch-related car wrecks will also receive compensation from General Motors, according to the report.\nBefore its deadline passed at the end of January, the company\u2019s fund received 4,342 claims for relief. So far, the fund is reviewing 1,492 of those claims and has decided that 820 of them do not meet the criteria for compensation set out by the fund. The remaining claims were denied because they lacked sufficient documentation for the fund to make a decision, according to the attorney responsible for running the fund.

Last year, nearly 64 million vehicles were recalled nationwide, topping the previous recall record of 30.8 million vehicles set in 2004. The recalled vehicles were the subject of 803 separate recalls issued in the last calendar year.\nThe NHTSA has pushed automakers to report potential defects and announce voluntary vehicle recalls more quickly, especially after serious problems with GM ignition switches and Takata air bags went ignored for years, resulting in dozens of deaths. The NHTSA estimates that the ignition switches have so far been responsible for 52 deaths and that the air bag inflator ruptures have caused four deaths and may be implicated in a fifth incident. Dozens of other recall-related injuries have also been reported.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has also issued a recall.\nExperienced New Jersey motorcycle accident attorneys follow recall news closely, aware of the risks that a hidden defect can pose to motorcycle riders. In many cases, riders do not know their bike has a problem until a crash or other severe injury has already occurred. This makes recall news vital to the safety of motorcyclists nationwide.\nThe recall focuses on problems in the upper pinion bearing in the steering rack assembly. If the bearing disengages, the rider may lose control of the motorcycle, according to the NHTSA press release. Read the rest \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Richard A. Epstein, a law professor and legal theorist, teaches at the University of Chicago Law School and is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. He is one of the leading legal scholars in the United States and a prominent libertarian author.\nEpstein\u2019s work on eminent domain brought him fame when Senator Joseph Biden held up a copy of Epstein\u2019s book Takings during the 1991 confirmation hearings of Clarence Thomas to the U.S. Supreme Court. According to Biden, judges who agreed with the central thesis of the book\u2014that the federal government should be more vigilant about compensating people when their property is taken for public use\u2014were unfit to sit on the Supreme Court. Epstein has said that he \u201ctook some pride\u201d in being criticized for his position.\nBut I took even more pride in the fact that, during the [Stephen] Breyer hearings, there were no such theatrics, even as the nominee was constantly questioned on whether he agreed with the Epstein position on deregulation, as if that position could not be held by responsible people.\nEpstein also has challenged established wisdom on employment discrimination laws, arguing that government intervention in employment contracts is unnecessary and even undesirable. \u201cLabor markets raise neither of the two problems on which a principled case for legal intervention may properly rest,\u201d he has written.\nThere are neither the holdout, coordination, or public good problems that justify government coercion and control so long as compensation is paid to regulated parties; nor are there the problems with externalities in the use of force or fraud against strangers that justify the use of state force without compensation.\nMoreover, if one is interested in redistributing income to groups that have traditionally suffered discrimination, then antidiscrimination laws are a blunt tool to use toward that end. A combination of tax and welfare systems, keyed to individual wealth, would be more simple and effective, Epstein argues.\nAlthough Epstein\u2019s discussions of eminent domain and antidiscrimination laws may appear radical to some observers, they in fact reveal how his worldview differs from those libertarians who see themselves as more uncompromising in their views. Epstein is no anarchist, nor does he believe that government action should be confined to protecting people from violence. In other words, he is no advocate of a night watchman state. Instead, he argues that the state must intervene in the provision of key public goods, such as supplying the nation\u2019s infrastructure in transportation and energy to overcome coordination problems among private interests. \u201cI do not think that \u2018free markets,\u2019 let alone \u2018capitalism,\u2019 supplies the answer to all the questions of social organization,\u201d Epstein writes. \u201cMarkets depend on governments; governments of course depend on markets. The key question is not to exclude one or the other from the mix, but to assign to each its proper role.\u201d\nEpstein has made his consequentialist case for classical liberalism in three recent books: Simple Rules for a Complex World, Principles for a Free Society, and Skepticism and Freedom.

Leeson joins us to talk about his new book WTF?!: An Economic Tour of the Weird.\nSpeak Freely (with Keith E. Whittington)\nPeter T. Leeson joins us to talk about his new book WTF?!: An Economic Tour of the Weird. Peter T. Leeson is the Duncan Black Professor of Economics and Law at George Mason University. We discuss some of the world\u2019s strangest customs and behaviors; everything from convicting insects of crimes in a court of law to wife sales. How can this be rational economic behavior?\nWTF?!: An Economic Tour of the Weird by Peter T. Leeson\nMore work by Peter T. Leeson\nTrevor Burrus: Joining us today is Peter T. Leeson. He\u2019s the Duncan Black Professor of Economics and Law at George Mason University. He\u2019s the author of The Invisible Hook: The Hidden Economics of Pirates, Anarchy Unbound, which was the subject of a previous Free Thoughts episode. His new book is WTF: An Economic Tour of the Weird. Welcome back to Free Thoughts, Pete.\nPeter T. Leeson: Thanks for [00:00:30] having me.\nTrevor Burrus: So what is so WTF about WTF?\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, I think a lot of things, actually. I guess first and foremost, the substantive subject matter of the book is I guess what I kind of call bizarre or unusual, kind of shocking social practices that humans have engaged in throughout history and including today, that kind of evoke what I call WTF moments. That\u2019s the [00:01:00] sort of typical reaction upon learning about them.\nThat\u2019s the first way in which it\u2019s WTF. And then the second way is actually the organization of this book itself, or the kind of way that it\u2019s set up. I had this idea, when I started working on this stuff, that it would be fun to, when writing the book, to set it up as a kind of museum of social oddities. So if you\u2019ve seen Ripley\u2019s Believe or Not, or if you\u2019ve maybe ever gone through maybe a museum of medical oddities, that\u2019s sort of the [00:01:30] theme that I had in mind. So each chapter of the book is set up as a stop on a literal tour through this museum, and then the book is narrated by the tour guide, which is me.\nAnd the tour, and thus the book, is populated by a number of quasi-fictional characters who I interact with throughout the tour and it\u2019s those interactions that kind of propel the narrative and allow the reason behind these practices to unfold.\nTrevor Burrus: But as you [00:02:00] said, you\u2019re not just talking about weird things that people did in history, \u2018cause there\u2019s a lot of weird things people did in history. You\u2019re trying to explain why weird things may not be so weird.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, yeah, the entire premise of the book, so I\u2019s approaching it from my economic perspective, which is that things that don\u2019t seem to make sense on the surface actually do make sense, and economics is what allows us to understand them. And so the idea is to sort of view these practices, or view things that [00:02:30] would evoke a WTF in you, again, past or present, with an economic approach. And by doing so, to make sneeze of them.\nAaron Powell: Then what\u2019s the first stop on our tour? If we\u2019re heading into your museum of weird stuff.\nPeter T. Leeson: The very first stop, before the actual stop, it\u2019s sort of waiting in the lobby idea of the museum is a bit of discussion about what economics is, the sort or economic approach [00:03:00] that the tour is going to apply. And I should say again, in case it\u2019s not obvious, the book is written to be enjoyed by and totally accessible to somebody who has no economic background and probably maybe even isn\u2019t interested in economics in the first place.\nSo that the sort of very first preliminary piece. And then the first actual stop of the tour examines a couple of different practices, but the foundation [00:03:30] of them is medieval judicial ordeals.\nTrevor Burrus: And the ordeals are, it\u2019s pretty much a \u201cShe\u2019s a witch,\u201d Monty Python, very small rocks, weigh her against a duck kind of thing. I mean, it\u2019s along those lines, correct?\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, that\u2019s one of the most famous examples that actually I point to in the book. The Monty Python example. Historical ordeals didn\u2019t involve any comparisons to ducks and in fact, they were used prior to the witch craze, which came much later. So [00:04:00] medieval judicial ordeals are sort of 9th through 13th century things, so about 400 years, used throughout Europe.\nAnd actually, the witch craze in Europe didn\u2019t happen until the 16th century. So these ordeals had a different nature and they weren\u2019t used to prosecute claims of witchcraft, \u2018cause that really wasn\u2019t popular yet. In fact, this is a bit of an aside, but during this period, the Catholic Church denied that witchcraft was real. So that wasn\u2019t really an important crime.\nInstead, they were used to [00:04:30] try ordinary crimes. Things that we today would consider crimes, like arson or murder or theft.\nAaron Powell: Did they believe that there was a meaningful relation between how one did on the ordeal and one\u2019s actual guilt of the underlying crime?\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, the whole premise for them was grounded in this, what we would consider a superstition, called Judicium Dei, which is Latin for \u2018Judgment of God\u2019. And the idea was basically that if priests performed [00:05:00] the appropriate rituals, they could call upon God to reveal the guilt or innocence of an accused criminal whose guilt or innocence was in doubt to the court, and God would show that to the court by virtue of how the defendant reacted physically in the ordeal test.\nAaron Powell: So does this mean that when a team loses, like the Super Bowl, they\u2019re all a bunch of criminals? This counts as evidence of that?\nTrevor Burrus: Because God did not intervene in their victory?\nPeter T. Leeson: Yes, actually something like that. [00:05:30] They were a little bit more ominous, well, I guess it depends on your perspective, than losing a game of football, but you know, the basic idea is the same, yeah.\nTrevor Burrus: So let\u2019s set the stage. It\u2019s a dusty, dirty medieval town-\nAaron Powell: And Trevor has killed someone\u2019s cattle.\nTrevor Burrus: Or I\u2019ve been accused of killing someone\u2019s cattle-\nAaron Powell: Oh, you\u2019re probably guilty, but you were just confirming it.\nTrevor Burrus: I\u2019m probably guilty. So I know whether or not I killed the cattle. There\u2019s no good evidence on display, [00:06:00] so he says I killed them, I say I didn\u2019t kill them, and so then they decide to have an ordeal. The priest says, \u201cOkay, it\u2019s time to reach into this boiling pot of water and grab the stone at the bottom.\u201d And then what happens next?\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, what happens next depends upon whether or not you committed the crime or not, is essentially what I argue. So the first thing, going back to the set up, to recognize is that medieval judicial systems, they weren\u2019t insane, they only used this ordeal [00:06:30] system when there wasn\u2019t ordinary evidence that you\u2019d committed the crime or not.\nSo if you\u2019ve been accused of having stolen or killed the cow and somebody says, \u201cYou know what? He was with me that day,\u201d and a whole bunch of people in the town observed it, then they would exonerate you and that would be the end of it. It was only if they considered the accusation plausible in the first case and they weren\u2019t sure, which is again, what you would expect a sensible judicial system to do.\nAnd so in this case, in the example you gave, they order you to undergo the [00:07:00] hot water ordeal and in that ordeal, if the water burns you, that was considered evidence God was letting the water burn you to evidence to the court that you had committed the crime. And if you were innocent, the idea was that God would perform a miracle that prevented the water from burning you, and as a result, you would be unscathed which would evidence to the court that you had not committed the crime. In consequence, you would be exonerated.\nAnd going back to the logic underlying this thing, the idea is that if you imagine that you believed in the superstition [00:07:30] that I just described, Judicium Dei, then your incentive to either undergo the ordeal or to decline it, which is in fact another option. You could decline it, for example, simply by the most obvious way would be just confess to the crime. And if you confess to the crime, you\u2019re probably going to have a slightly reduced punishment, compared to what you would have if you underwent the ordeal and failed it.\nThe idea is that your incentive is different depending upon whether or not you choose to under \u2026 Influences whether or not you will undergo the ordeal or not. And in consequence, your [00:08:00] choice about whether to undergo or not will reveal to the court essentially whether or not you\u2019re guilty or not. It accesses that private information that Trevor would have about his guilt or innocence to the legal system.\nAaron Powell: Did they ever wonder, so this example of plunging your hand into boiling water, did they ever wonder why everyone who underwent the ordeal was guilty? I mean, because-\nTrevor Burrus: \u2018Cause water burns.\nAaron Powell: \u2026 everyone who plunges their hands into boiling water is going to burn. I can\u2019t imagine there was even one instance where someone was not burned by the boiling water.\nPeter T. Leeson: Okay, [00:08:30] so we have to back up a step. The first step is to think about what the incentives actually are, right? So if you\u2019re innocent, if Trevor didn\u2019t do it, he expects that God will perform a miracle that will prevent him from getting burned, and that\u2019s better than if he does the alternative, which would be to say, confess, to decline the ordeal.\nSo if he\u2019s innocent, he\u2019ll undergo the ordeal. We\u2019ll come back to that in moment. If he\u2019s guilty, on the other hand, he would rather confess than undergo the ordeal because if he undergoes, he thinks that God\u2019s going to out him. So he has his arm boiled to rags, plus he has [00:09:00] to faced whatever the state-stipulated punishment is for having committed this crime. Whereas, if he confesses, at a minimum, he saves his arm from being boiled, plus he probably gets a slightly reduced state fine.\nSo if he\u2019s guilty, he\u2019s going to decline the ordeal. So as you suggest, this implies that only the innocent guys will undergo it, which means Trevor only undergoes it if in fact he didn\u2019t commit the crime. But then we have the little problem of the fact that boiling water in fact, burns people arms, even if they\u2019re innocent. Which requires, therefore, that the person that [00:09:30] was conducting the ordeal, which were clerics, it was priests, needs to somehow manipulate in order that it doesn\u2019t burn Trevor\u2019s arm.\nAnd if you look to, essentially, ordeal instructions that medieval priests were to follow when administering these things, what you find is that they basically consist of instructions that more or less directed the priests to manipulate the water\u2019s temperature, in this particular case, for instance. Such that it wouldn\u2019t in fact burn Trevor\u2019s arm.\nTrevor Burrus: So they put fewer logs on the fire, or could they also, [00:10:00] were the ones inspecting the arm, too, right? So they could also manipulate the after plunging your arm in the water test.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, yeah, the ultimate thing is that exactly. Let\u2019s say that they fail to lower the temperature of the fire. In the end, you\u2019re exactly right, they can declare your arm having been unburned either way, because they\u2019re the ones that have ultimate decision. But that would look pretty fishy to people. You know, if your arm comes out of the water and it\u2019s clearly all burned up, people are probably going to think that you\u2019re just saying [00:10:30] that his arm didn\u2019t burn.\nSo it was kind of important for them to make sure that the water didn\u2019t burn Trevor\u2019s arm and in that case, what they did was things like allowing the water to cool. So there\u2019s a whole bunch of different tricks that they had, but one important piece of this is that, you know, you can make fires to be different temperatures. Anybody who\u2019s made a fire knows that, or who was in Boy Scouts remembers that. Priests prepared the ordeal fire, that would either heat the water in this case, or sometimes they used [00:11:00] a piece of iron that they were heating. They made it in private, and that allowed them to engage in a lot of tampering and fire cooling.\nThe ordeal instructions, for example, directed priests to pour holy water into the cauldron. These were part of elaborate masses, so these were all sort of religious rituals. That would of course cool the temperature of the water. The defendant didn\u2019t actually plunge his hand into the water until the mass was over, okay? And the mass could be as long as the priest wanted, often appears to have been many hours [00:11:30] long. So by drawing out his prayers, essentially, because what the instructions directed was that the defendant doesn\u2019t stick his arm in the water until the priest says \u201cThat\u2019s my last prayer.\u201d\nThe priest could draw the prayers out for as long as he wanted, allowing the water to cool more and more. So by the time that the defendant actually sticks his arm in there, it\u2019s probably lukewarm. So if he fails in those things, the priest that is, then he can sort of resort to this ultimate thing of declaring it unburned anyway, but probably most of the time he didn\u2019t need to do that.\nAaron Powell: [00:12:00] So mostly out of just a sense of morbid curiosity, what are some of the other kinds of ordeals that were common besides just plunging your hand into boiling water?\nPeter T. Leeson: The chief other hot ordeal is the one that I eluded to a minute ago, which is the hot iron ordeal. The logic was the same. Burn equals you were guilt, not burns is equal to you\u2019re innocent. But instead of putting your arm in boiling water, you carried a piece of burning iron a certain number of paces.\nAnd then the sort of primary cold ordeal was the ordeal [00:12:30] of cold water. And in that one, a priest plunked you into a pool of holy water and the idea was that if you sank, God was allowing your guiltless body into his blessed pool, evidencing your innocence. And if you were guilty, God would make you float. The holy water would reject your guilty soul and your floating would evidence your guilt to the court.\nTrevor Burrus: Now that one seems hard to manipulate.\nPeter T. Leeson: It is because you know, essentially, you have to alter water\u2019s specific gravity [00:13:00] in order to ensure that people will sink through manipulation. But it turns out that, unlike in the hot ordeals, in the cold water ordeal, you could essentially ensure that you got the outcome that you wanted to exonerate the defendants to them, because certain type of people reliably sink in water without any trickery at all. And those people are lean males, so lean males have like an 80% chance of sinking in water.\nTrevor Burrus: Aaron\u2019s dad, [00:13:30] that\u2019s good, okay.\nAaron Powell: That\u2019s the one I\u2019d pick. Were all of them, I guess, guilt-biased? Like so-\nTrevor Burrus: The priests, you mean?\nAaron Powell: No, no, the ordeals. So that the thing that we would expect to happen in the circumstance, like you\u2019re getting burned by holding the things, or you\u2019re likely to float-\nTrevor Burrus: Or sink, you mean. I mean, the guilty have the worst outcome, right?\nAaron Powell: Right, right. No, but that the most common outcome, which would be being burned or floating [00:14:00] when set in the water is the thing that correlates with guilt, as opposed to the thing that correlates with innocence.\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, no, not necessarily because in the cold ordeal, whether or not you sink depends upon whether or not you\u2019re male or female. So the average lean male, as I was saying, has an 80% chance of sinking. In contrast, the average lean female has only a 40% chance of sinking, because women have a higher percentage of body fat than men, they are much more likely to float.\nSo if you sent women to the cold ordeal, under the same [00:14:30] rule, they would tend to be found guilty rather than innocent, which is the opposite of what you were describing, I think.\nTrevor Burrus: So this is fascinating, but it also seems that you\u2019re an economist and the evidence, you like to run different trials and studies and have a control and stuff and get some good statistics about this. What evidence do we have, other than the descriptions you\u2019ve read that there was something weird going on here?\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, the strongest evidence that\u2019s predicted by this kind of logic is [00:15:00] that most people who plunge their hands into boiling or carried red hot, burning iron would in fact be miraculously unscathed and thus exonerated by the ordeal. And that\u2019s fortunately the primary sort of evidence that\u2019s available. Having said that, the number of observations here is very small because we\u2019re dealing with 9th through 13th century, effectively, judicial records, which are more or less clerical records at the period.\nBut there is this one pretty cool case that [00:15:30] we have of this Basilica in Hungary in the very early part of the 13th century, which is the end of the period in which ordeals are being used, where we have recorded cases of people who underwent the ordeal of hot iron, and we know the outcomes for them. For a couple hundred of these guys or gals.\nAnd 2/3 of them show that the red hot iron miraculously did not burn the defendant, who was therefore exonerated. So there\u2019s [00:16:00] only a couple of possibilities here as I see it. The first is that, consistent with the logic that I\u2019ve described, priests were deliberately manipulating the ordeal to exonerate the defendants precisely because they knew that only innocent defendants would be willing to hazard the chance of carrying the hot iron in the first place. Or, priests don\u2019t understand how to heat iron, which seems far less likely to me.\nAaron Powell: Or that everyone in that town was a medieval David Blaine.\nPeter T. Leeson: There\u2019s a third.\nTrevor Burrus: But [00:16:30] you can\u2019t discount that weird Black Swan event. So I mean, aside from the superstition element, which is a theme of the book, how much your personal belief matters to this, but what caused ordeals to go away and then I guess the second question is, you point out, is there anything like this today?\nPeter T. Leeson: With respect to the first question, what caused them to go away. This is again a kind of prediction of the logic, so the logic says people\u2019s belief in this thing actually [00:17:00] being divine, that God is conducting the ordeal effectively, rather than the priests manipulating them, is required in order for this system to function. If people don\u2019t believe that, if the belief goes away, then the different incentives that Trevor would face, depending on whether he\u2019s guilty or innocent, to undergo or to decline the ordeal would go away, and so the whole thing would fall apart.\nSo the logic says that when that belief is removed or erodes that the ordeal will cease to be effective, so we should [00:17:30] expect it to basically disappear. And that\u2019s exactly what we find. So at the Fourth Lateran Council in the early 13th century, 1215-\nTrevor Burrus: I was about to say, 1215, I remember that one from trivia question. Continue, 1215, yes.\nPeter T. Leeson: Nailed it, exactly. And Pope Innocent III, did you remember that one?\nTrevor Burrus: Uh-huh (affirmative) yup.\nPeter T. Leeson: So he basically declares, up until this period, the church\u2019s position was, \u201cYes, of course ordeals are divine,\u201d and there was some internal debate, however, among Ecclesiastics [00:18:00] about whether or not they were canonical. You know, some Ecclesiastics basically said, \u201cYup, we\u2019ve got strong Biblical support for these, let\u2019s keep on trucking.\u201d And some others said, \u201cYou know what? I think there\u2019s not really any Biblical support for this. In fact, if anything, I think it might contradict what the Bible says.\u201d\nAnd so there\u2019s this sort of internal debate that\u2019s raging among Ecclesiastics over this issue and the latter camp won out. So in the 100 years preceding, leading up to 1215, they\u2019re basic [00:18:30] argument had been gaining steam within the church, and that\u2019s what led to the Fourth Lateran Council where the Pope says, \u201cOkay, ordeals. You know how we\u2019ve been saying those are legit? Actually, we were wrong about that. They\u2019re not Scriptural, God isn\u2019t part of them, He doesn\u2019t want us to be engaged in these things. All priests are now barred from administering or participating in ordeals.\u201d\nSo when the church does that, it basically pulls the rug out from underneath the belief, the remaining belief at least, throughout medieval Europe that\u2019s supporting [00:19:00] the effective use of ordeals. And in consequence, ordeals quickly vanish. Incidentally, it\u2019s the disappearance of ordeals in the early 13th century directly that gives rise to, shortly thereafter, trial by jury in England and the Inquisitorial procedure on the continent.\nEverybody was using trial by ordeal up until that point, and when they went away, people were sort of looking around and saying, \u201cWell, how the hell are we going to adjudicate criminal cases now?\u201d And those were essentially the two forms that emerged [00:19:30] to fill that void.\nTrevor Burrus: But now today we have something else. You point out really interestingly, the polygraph.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, there\u2019s a bunch of different examples of it, but I think the polygraph is the most telling case. A lot of Americans, like smart, well-educated Americans, and people outside of the United States believe that poly, so-called lie detector tests, believe that they\u2019re real. That\u2019s it\u2019s possibly to physiologically measure or determine whether or not someone is lying or telling the truth.\nOf course, the scientific [00:20:00] consensus is that that\u2019s horseshit. There\u2019s about as much validity to that idea as there is in the idea that God is intervening in our judicial affairs to determine the outcomes. You know, it\u2019s a pseudoscience. But it doesn\u2019t matter that it\u2019s a pseudoscience, because conditional on people believing it as many, as I said, do, that\u2019s it\u2019s true, administering polygraphs or lie detectors has the same incentive properties that administering medieval judicial ordeals did.\nThey leverage the exact same logic. It\u2019s [00:20:30] just that they use a different superstition in order to make them effective.\nAaron Powell: Well, let\u2019s move on to the thing that I\u2019m sure a lot of us married men have thought about at one time or another-\nTrevor Burrus: I was going to say the same thing. Aaron\u2019s favorite topic. Wife-selling.\nAaron Powell: \u2026 is wife-selling.\nTrevor Burrus: So when there was a hey-day of wife-selling, and it wasn\u2019t that long ago.\nPeter T. Leeson: No, it was Industrial Revolution era. So you find some before and after this, but you can think of it as the period between 1750 and 1880 or [00:21:00] so.\nTrevor Burrus: And why was that particularly robust time for wife-selling?\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, you gotta read the book to find out all the details. A lot of things are sort of like \u2026 We\u2019re giving it, which is natural in this context, a sort of superficial gloss, but the stories are much more complex, right? And this one I think is kind of especially so. But anyway, the basic [00:21:30] idea here is that during this period, men from lower classes, so it\u2019s typically impoverished people, couples who are engaging in this thing, would sell their wives at public auctions.\nThe same public auctions at which livestock were sold. It was a town market, effectively. They would trot them out there just like livestock, any potential bidders would basically get a look at her, they\u2019d put her on the block and an auctioneer would you know, [00:22:00] extol her virtues and vices and then the bidding would commence. And, and this is a crucial part, conditional on the wife agreeing to be sold to a new husband, to a new male who would become her new husband, the sale was transacted and the existing marriage was essentially dissolved and a new one was formed.\nThat\u2019s the gist of the practice. Which on the surface, I think-\nTrevor Burrus: Patriarchal capitalism. Yeah, that sounds like the horrors of patriarchal capitalism.\nPeter T. Leeson: [00:22:30] Exactly. It sounds like pretty much the worst thing you can imagine. And I don\u2019t mean to say that it was a glorious thing, right. So my claim is not, same thing with medieval judicial ordeals, my claim is not that, \u201cLook how wonderful it is to have a system where you plunge your arm in boiling water or where people are selling off spouses.\u201d That\u2019s not the claim.\nThe claim throughout the book is that in order to understand these things, and to give them their due, I think in a sense, rather than writing them off as barbaric, you have to [00:23:00] understand the constraints and the incentives that they involved and that they reflected.\nAnd in the context of Industrial Revolution era wife selling, the important constraints were effectively that it was really, really hard, there was a couple of them, but it was really, really hard to get a legal divorce. I mean, legal divorces didn\u2019t exist essentially. But there were various forms of de facto marital dissolution, and under the law, [00:23:30] those de facto means of marital dissolution were very easy for unhappy men who wanted to exit their marriage to appeal to, but they were very difficult for women to appeal to.\nNow there\u2019s this thing, right, called the Coase theorem which says, \u201cWell, it doesn\u2019t really matter because if in fact it\u2019s efficient for a marriage to dissolve, then regardless of whether or not the law says that one party has the right to exit and the other doesn\u2019t or not, [00:24:00] there will be an exchange, in this case, the wife could just pay the husband to basically buy the property right to let her out of the marriage, even though the law doesn\u2019t allow it.\u201d\nSo it\u2019s a sort of trade as a workaround to the law. The difficulty, and this comes to the second piece of the law that\u2019s critical in the case of wife sales here, is that the martial property law during this period deprived wives of property rights. So a single woman in the Industrial Revolution [00:24:30] era England enjoyed property rights just like a man did. But upon getting married, her legal status converted such that all of the property that she had when she entered the marriage, and all that would come into her possession throughout the marriage, was no longer hers. Instead, it devolved exclusively to her husband.\nTrevor Burrus: So she had no bargaining position?\nPeter T. Leeson: Exactly. How can you buy the right to exit marriage from your husband if all the things you would use to buy from him, all the money, the land, whatever [00:25:00] you might have, is already his?\nTrevor Burrus: But you can get someone else to buy your position. Now I\u2019m seeing it.\nPeter T. Leeson: Exactly, and that\u2019s why this auctioning procedure with wife sales happened. So if the couple, if the husband and the wife could identify a third party who was male who valued the wife more than her current husband did, and who she valued as a husband more than she valued her current husband as a husband, then that man could essentially allow for indirect Coasian trade.\nHe could pay the husband [00:25:30] for the right to have her, making all three of them better off, because he has property that the husband doesn\u2019t have, unlike the wife.\nAaron Powell: Then were most of these transactions the result of unhappy marriages of the kinds that we\u2019re describing, where the partners, the wife wanted out and the husband agreed in exchange for someone else\u2019s money? Because I can imagine that there might also have been cases where this was due to financial hardship. Like maybe neither the husband nor wife wanted [00:26:00] this, but they were poor, they had mouths to feed and this was just a way to make money.\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, even if it were the latter, note that that would still be actually a subset of the former case that you described. It would be a workaround as a way for them to basically all be made better of as a result of the trade. It\u2019s just that the reason that it would be making them better off would be, as you described it, financial hardship, as opposed to say the husband [00:26:30] and wife just not getting along, or one of them cheating on the other or something like that.\nThe evidence, that we have anyway, suggests that it was the first type of case that you described. Which is the couples were unhappy in their marital situation, not because of economic hardship, but rather because one of them was cheating on the other. And so typically, actually, the wife having an affair. Which suggests a couple of things. One, she [00:27:00] values not being in the marriage very highly and two, now her husband probably doesn\u2019t value being married to her very much either, or at least his evaluation of that is lowered.\nTrevor Burrus: Now they have a willing buyer possibly, if she had an affair.\nPeter T. Leeson: Exactly, and he would often be the guy at the wife sale who would make the highest bid and so she would go to him. But regardless of the precise reasons, so in that typical case it seems, or even if it were, as you put it, a money-making scheme, which again it is in a sense [00:27:30] no matter how you think about. Somebody needs a financial incentive, basically, to do the thing that\u2019s happening here.\nBut in either case, the critical part, back to the capitalist patriarchy here, is that all of the parties are made better off. Most importantly, at least from my perspective in it\u2019s context, the wives, without these sales, these unhappy wives have no other way of getting out of their unhappy marriages. Since they have to consent to be sold, [00:28:00] and since we just discussed, typically they were being sold to their lovers, they were made better off as a consequence of the trade, rather than worse off.\nSo this practice that looks like slavery or something like it at the outset, in fact, I think, was a welfare improvement for women. A significant one at the time, given the constraints, going back to that, of Industrial Revolution property and marital law.\nTrevor Burrus: I assumed as those changed, [00:28:30] that would probably say that the practice would change itself, if women are no longer property.\nPeter T. Leeson: Precisely. And that\u2019s again exactly what we find. So towards the latter part of the 19th century, from about the 1840s to like the 1880s, maybe even up to 1890, you have a series in England of new legislation that Parliament passes that basically, step by step, give married women [00:29:00] more and more property rights. Making them consonant to the property rights that they basically had as single women.\nAnd once that happens, you don\u2019t need to resort to wife sales if you\u2019re an unhappy wife to get out of your marriage, because even if it\u2019s really difficult for you to get out of the marriage under the law without your husband\u2019s permission, now you actually have property that\u2019s yours that isn\u2019t his that you can use as a bargaining chip, that you can use to pay him to bribe your way out of the bad marriage, and that\u2019s what we see happens.\nTrevor Burrus: [00:29:30] Now, your book has many interesting chapters. We don\u2019t have time to get to all of them, of course. I definitely suggest listeners to read it. My favorite ones, I want to go to my personal favorite ones, so just to get some more ideas of what the WTF is. Maledictions. In a chapter called \u2018God Damn\u2019 the presence and use of maledictions. What is a malediction?\nPeter T. Leeson: A malediction is the opposite of a benediction. So [00:30:00] for your Catholic audience, I grew up in the Catholic church, I still consider myself Catholic in some ways, I guess. But in any event, so a benediction, you know, at mass the priest will basically offering blessings, and sometimes they\u2019ll point to specific people. Not necessarily in the parish, although sometimes. But they have special blessings to thank people or to ask God to do special things and brotherly love and all of that stuff.\nA malediction, [00:30:30] they\u2019re not around anymore, but church would be far more entertaining if they were, I think. The priest did the exact opposite. He would call out specific people and basically ask God to damn them in a variety of really-\nTrevor Burrus: Disturbing ways, yeah.\nPeter T. Leeson: \u2026 hedonistic, graphic ways.\nAaron Powell: So this is basically a faculty staff meeting.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yes, I suppose so.\nTrevor Burrus: It was ornate too, \u2018cause they went through different physical [00:31:00] procedures. Not just saying, \u201cMay your wife and your fields and your days and your nights be cursed,\u201d they also did a bunch of weird things. I just keep picturing this in my mind and I\u2019m like, \u201cWow, this is bizarre.\u201d\nPeter T. Leeson: Oh yeah, yeah. They would specifically say, like, \u201cMay your eyes rot in your skull. May you intestines be torn out and eaten by ravenous wolves. May your \u2026 \u201d I mean some of the stuff, when you imagine that it\u2019s priests that are saying this at Mass, it\u2019s pretty crazy. You know, \u201cMay your [00:31:30] wife or your daughter be raped.\u201d I mean, just over the top.\nTrevor Burrus: And they\u2019d lie down on the ground and do other weird things.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, yeah, so that was a call to clamor. One of the things that they could do was to be take holy relics, in particular, and put them on the floor and then lay themselves prostrate on the floor. And the idea was that they would basically be humiliating the saints that these relics reflected. And so [00:32:00] the thought was if you piss off the saints, basically you\u2019re working them up and getting them really angry so that the curses will be especially bad when they\u2019re launched at whoever the target is.\nAaron Powell: How does one end up on this list of people to be cursed by the local priest?\nPeter T. Leeson: Well, so well the maledictions that I study are in 9th and 10th century Francia, which isn\u2019t really equivalent to modern France, but we can sort of think about it, it\u2019s in that area. And [00:32:30] what you did in that period to basically to get on the shit list was to steal from the church, to steal from the priests or the monks. A lot of times these were monastic curses, so it was the monks property. And that seems kind of weird maybe from a contemporary perspective, but well, maybe not so weird, but especially during this period, the church has tremendous wealth, they have tons of land, [00:33:00] they\u2019ve got lots of physical goods that are valuable.\nAnd what they don\u2019t have is the physical means of self-protection, however. When you took up the cloth, you basically laid down your arms and made a vow to live the monastic/priestly life and so that meant you didn\u2019t have weapons, and so they kind of resorted to these spiritual weapons to basically cope with their property depredators instead.\nTrevor Burrus: So just like the ordeal, this would require the [00:33:30] cursed to believe that there was some power to what the monks were doing, so maybe that\u2019s one reason for the ceremony, other than just saying it, laying down on the ground and putting the relics on the ground and stuff, so it depends on their belief.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, again, you\u2019re absolutely right. It\u2019s critical. It only works, if you are threatening to take something from me and I say, \u201cGod\u2019s going to smite you now and in the afterlife,\u201d that only might stop you from stealing from me if you actually believe [00:34:00] in God, for instance. And in particular, if not only do you have to believe in God, but you have to believe that God will in fact, curse people who do things like stealing from somebody and that priests, in particular, have the power to call on God to ask him to do that favor in that case.\nAnd the medieval priests were really luck in this regard, because you know, if you take a read of the Bible, it\u2019s basically littered with these divine curses [00:34:30] and pretty much all of the exact, graphic, nasty curses, these maledictions that clerics in this period were launching at people who were plundering them were the same curses that you find in the Bible. And the Bible was something in which, in this place in Christendom, many people believed, which is precisely what gave them their power to be effective.\nAaron Powell: That then seems to [00:35:00] play at odds with, I guess, the specific nature of these curses. Because it\u2019s one thing if the priest says, \u201cGod is going to make something bad happen to you,\u201d because this was a time when bad things happened to people all the time. But the really specific nature, like \u201cYour eyes are going to rot out,\u201d or some other thing, that the likelihood of that actually happening seems rather low.\nPeter T. Leeson: It does, which is why if you used [00:35:30] a very specific one, a lot of them sound really specific, but if you look close, they\u2019re not. Here\u2019s an example, if you\u2019re going to use something like your eyes rotting out of your head, you want to actually couple it with a whole bunch of other things that some of which might be specific, and some of which might be extremely vague, all sort of using sort and or or clauses.\nSo, \u201cMay your eyes rot out of your head, or you be miserable for the rest of your life or you [00:36:00] lose your property to a fire or you suffer illnesses when you are in the north,\u201d they would use directions, or in the south or in the west. And if you look at these things, one of the patterns that shows up is that, again, just having this veneer specificity. In fact, they\u2019re extremely general and broad, sort of catch-all curses. So they kind of ultimately account for all possible states of affairs in which you might be and in the end say that something bad [00:36:30] will happen to you.\nIn fact, maybe not just happen to you now, but alternatively, they might happen to you in the afterlife. So-\nTrevor Burrus: Unfalsifiable.\nPeter T. Leeson: What\u2019s that?\nTrevor Burrus: That\u2019s non-falsifiable then.\nPeter T. Leeson: Exactly, yeah, precisely. There\u2019s no way to falsify the thing because one, you can never observe what happens to a person in the afterlife, so if nothing comes true in their life, there\u2019s always that possibility. But moreover, the stuff that\u2019s in your life is also encompassing. It\u2019s almost certain that at some point, something bad is going to happen [00:37:00] to you, and if you make the malediction broad enough, it\u2019s going to encompass that thing. So there\u2019s no way to know, when it happens, if it happened because of the curse or it was bound to happen anyway.\nTrevor Burrus: So the constraints here were the relative predation on property of the church during this one 9th and 10th century Francia Carolingian period and so kind of like the other situations, presumably when that changed, and some of that is for better state power, then the curses sort [00:37:30] of went away, the maledictions.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, exactly. This period\u2019s interesting because basically leading up to the period in which curses were used, the state existed and it was the force that was protecting the monk\u2019s and priest\u2019s property rights, so it wasn\u2019t a big deal that the monks and priests didn\u2019t have their own weapons, effectively. Then there this period of state, basically erosion occurs for a century or two, the priests [00:38:00] now don\u2019t have that external enforcement of their property rights, so they resort to maledictions.\nBut what\u2019s neat that happens is that at the end of this period, the state actually reemerges and it\u2019s power to protect the monk\u2019s and priest\u2019s property rights consequently reemerges and that\u2019s exactly what they do and right when that happens, lo and behold, the priests and monks put their malediction formulas away and we don\u2019t ever hear about them again.\nSo it seems pretty clear to me that is was that [00:38:30] this was a means of private property enforcement that was a second best solution. It wasn\u2019t the monk\u2019s or priest\u2019s preferred way of doing thing, otherwise they would\u2019ve done it even when the state was there. They only use it in that intermediary period where basically they don\u2019t enjoy that protection.\nTrevor Burrus: So as a Libertarian podcast, I know we\u2019re looking at this economically, and states and other institutions do different things to protect property rights, but that seems like an endorsement of the state to [00:39:00] come in and change at least this bizarre way of cursing people to protect property rights. It\u2019s probably better to rely on \u2026 Maybe that\u2019s the thing. The state, it relies on force, not belief. That you don\u2019t need people to believe in the superstition or something, you just need people to believe in the force of the state, so it\u2019s a little bit more scalable, and it\u2019s a little bit more manageable.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yeah, yeah, exactly. I mean, to me, it doesn\u2019t have an implication for Libertarianism one way or the other. [00:39:30] My perspective as a Libertarian does not take the following position that government can never do anything that private actors can\u2019t do. It can. Right? It certainly can do those things. To me, the Libertarian point is that in general, on net, the costs that come with that exceed the benefits, but not that in any particular case there isn\u2019t something that it couldn\u2019t do that would provide a benefit that private actors couldn\u2019t do.\nAnd I think this is an example of that. So, you know, [00:40:00] the state did presumably have a strong interest in protecting the monk\u2019s property rights, and that\u2019s why it was more effective than these curses, which as you say, required belief and therefore in a sense, they\u2019re more fragile. But that doesn\u2019t mean that in general, state enforcement of property rights even is superior because we\u2019re focusing just on it\u2019s implications for monastic communities. What was it\u2019s implications for broader society?\nJust because the state was willing to do better on protecting monk\u2019s property rights doesn\u2019t mean that it was protecting other people\u2019s property rights better. [00:40:30] Or doesn\u2019t mean that it was engaging in activities more generally that promoted economic progress. I\u2019m not saying that it didn\u2019t either, but simply we can infer from \u2026 I feel like sometimes Libertarians have this tendency to be unwilling to acknowledge that government could do something that might have some isolated effect that they would consider positive, and I think that that\u2019s a wrong attitude to have because it\u2019s clearly wrong.\nTrevor Burrus: Agreed. Now, the last one I\u2019d like you to talk about, but I\u2019d like you to not tell the answer to our listeners, so they can read [00:41:00] your book, \u2018cause I think it\u2019s the weirdest thing in the book, which is trials of animals. So what was the situation for trials of animals?\nPeter T. Leeson: During the Renaissance in France, Italy and Switzerland, Ecclesiastic courts, which were the primary courts of the period, Ecclesiastic courts criminally prosecuted insects and rodents for property crimes and trespass. So you know, we\u2019re dealing with primarily [00:41:30] farmers here, so if you have say an infestation of locusts or some rats eat your barley crop or something, what you could and citizens often did, would be to bring a formal complaint to the equivalent of what we would call a modern day District Attorney in their community, who would then formally lodge the complaint with the court and the court would consider whether or not to hear the case, which would involve prosecuting the critters.\nAnd the [00:42:00] court cases, the trials of these animals and insects proceeded and had the exact form as they do for people. They treated them just like they were people, so the crickets or the locusts or the rats or whatever would be given a court appointed defense attorney and the trials could and often did, drag on for months with legal wrangling on both sides. And then the court would in the end issue it\u2019s [00:42:30] verdict and if the insects or rodents were convicted, the punishment is just as weird as the fact that they were doing this in the first place.\nTrevor Burrus: I don\u2019t know what the weirdest part is.\nPeter T. Leeson: With malediction and anathema.\nTrevor Burrus: Banish the locusts.\nPeter T. Leeson: Excuse me, I\u2019m sorry, excommunication and anathema.\nTrevor Burrus: Oh, okay, okay.\nPeter T. Leeson: Which isn\u2019t that different, but I mean, it\u2019s a weird thing to do to not only insects and vermin, but you know, presumably they were never communicated [00:43:00] in the first place. They weren\u2019t part of the church, and they don\u2019t have souls to be able to be damned to hell. Nevertheless, that was the punishment.\nTrevor Burrus: And they got summons, and you mention that there\u2019s one eight-month trial for weevils with very serious defenses mounted against the weevils, including one of them being they\u2019re not people.\nPeter T. Leeson: Yes, yes. It\u2019s insane. Or seems insane. As you mentioned, there were summons, they, the defendants, would be granted [00:43:30] continuances on the grounds that you know, some rats, for example, were granted repeated continuances on the grounds that some cats had prevented them from making it to trial. Because they were supposed to actually appear with their counselor in front of the court. So one of the ways to convict them was basically if they didn\u2019t show up enough times, then the prosecuting attorney would say, \u201cLook, you know, we gotta find them in default, they\u2019re not even showing up.\u201d\nSo [00:44:00] the defense attorneys would have to basically make up all these things about why they weren\u2019t there, or ultimately plead, \u201cLook, they\u2019re crickets, so they\u2019re not that bright. It\u2019s hard to get them to come along, so why don\u2019t you just let us defend them in their absence?\u201d That sort of thing.\nAaron Powell: So as intriguing as all this is, as I think about my wife\u2019s cat, do you think that the people involved in this were in on the joke? Did they really take this seriously?\nPeter T. Leeson: [00:44:30] In general, with all of these things, I think that the relevant population, so the defendants, say, in trial by ordeal and the farmers who were initiating these legal cases against the vermin, I believe that they reposed some positive level of belief in the thing, yes. That is not equivalent to saying they were not skeptical. You can assign a positive probability to [00:45:00] something being true, but it be a very low probability, right? And thus be predominately skeptical.\nAs long as, in the case of ordeals, this example and others throughout the book, the argument is as long as people have some greater than zero belief, the logic goes through. There are different implications depending on their level of belief, which I talk about in the book, but the key thing is that you can be super skeptical, you just can\u2019t be so skeptical that you immediately rule it out of hand.\nAnd in the case of vermin [00:45:30] trials, for instance, it\u2019s important to note that it might seem crazy to think that farmers would do something like this, but you have to remember that if you look at like basically the equivalent of sort of farmer\u2019s manuals, pesticide manuals of the period, the non-Ecclesiastic remedies for these, the non-legal remedies for dealing with them consistent of things that we would consider absurd more generally.\nAnd so, you know, [00:46:00] during the period of vermin trials, you gotta remember that this was the period during which elites, now we\u2019re in the witch trial era, by the way, and this is a period in which elites thought that witches were real and that they stole men\u2019s genitals in their sleep and all kinds of crazy stuff. So once you recognize that people believed things like that, the idea that a simple farmer might think that he could get a court to basically deal with his infestation problem doesn\u2019t [00:46:30] seem that outrageous.\nAaron Powell: Then say there\u2019s a new addition of your book that comes out 500 years from now. I mean, you mentioned polygraph, but what besides polygraph do you think we do now and do very earnestly that would make a chapter in the book?\nPeter T. Leeson: Oh, wow. That\u2019s a great question. You know, something that I think about a lot, and I don\u2019t know [00:47:00] that I have a specific answer. I have maybe a couple suggestions in a second, but the general point, I think, or what your question gets at to me, is a critical thing, it\u2019s a point that I\u2019m constantly making when I talk about this and is a message that I\u2019m trying to get through also with the book. Which is that people basically A) shouldn\u2019t take themselves so seriously, and B) think that they, they meaning their societies, their culture, is [00:47:30] so sophisticated and clever.\nBecause both what you find is this incredible degree of cleverness in things that seem preposterous and absurd in the past and furthermore, you also see these believes that we regard today as absurd that have existed throughout the ages, which should give any critical thinking person pause to raise exactly the question that you raised, which is even if we don\u2019t know, even if we can\u2019t put our finger which specific things will be tomorrow\u2019s absurdities precisely [00:48:00] because we\u2019re steeped in it. Just like the farmers in the vermin trials, we\u2019re steeped in that belief. To them, it wasn\u2019t absurd.\nWhen you are thinking in those terms, you can\u2019t tell what\u2019s absurd, right? But what you do know is that it is certain that much of what we do now will be regarded as absurdity.\nTrevor Burrus: Free Thoughts is produced by Tess Terrible.

PSYCH\nIt is estimated that 22 veterans commit suicide each day, most likely as a result of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Director Rowe, who served two combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan and suffers from PTSD, drove more than 8,000 miles across the United States to touch base with his buddies, members of the Rakkasans (187th Airborne Infantry Regiment). The aim of the trip was to explore the incidence of PTSD, especially its influence on the overdose death of his close friend Jesse Snider. In interviews, Rowe explores the difficulties veterans face transitioning from war zone service to a stateside base or civilian life. The inability to cope with PTSD often leads to drug and alcohol abuse, sometimes resulting in court martial and less than honorable discharge, thus making them ineligible for Veterans Administration benefits and health care. Rowe also interviews experts from the National Center for PTSD and Sue Sisley of the MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) Marijuana Study.\nVERDICT This excellent film includes vital information on PTSD, opioid painkillers, and medical marijuana that can be put to use in most communities.

        "raw_content": "\u200belaine\nI was born and raised in Jax FL. My father taught me to play guitar and around fifteen, I started making up silly songs and raps to make my friends and family laugh. Pretty soon I realized music was a pretty amazing way to process life events but also a great way to help others who were going through similar situations. Music became my therapy and a way to love others. I created a very, very humble first EP called \"The Cause\" in 2014. Because of my lack of knowledge in the field, I wasn't sure how to go about promoting my music. Pretty soon, the EP felt distant and the only form of music I held onto was gigging in bars. I pursued a career in ASL interpreting and that took up most of my attention over several years. It was such a long and difficult road to get my degree and certification that music fell to the back burner. Eventually, as I settled into my career, the nagging feeling that I need creativity in my life came up again. I wrote enough songs for another EP and recorded most of it over several weeks. I began working with a producer again. I realized what held me back before was the lack of the knowledge I was finally gaining through experience. I wanted other female musicians to have that information and I wanted them to have a community. That's when Morgan and I created SongBook.\nABOUT SONGBOOK\u200b\nHere at SongBook, we recognize the impact music has on our culture and community. It has the power to challenge, heal, and unite people from all different walks of life. Music can spell out our feelings when we can\u2019t pinpoint them ourselves. It can twist us up in knots and ease our weary souls. Music is important, period. We feel that too often, the greater Jacksonville community is not connected to music outside of a pop star coming to town or the low hum of the live musician in the background at a restaurant. We want the community to meet their very own local musicians in a meaningful way, and we want our talented, local songwriters to have a platform worthy of their art.\nAlso, we are female musicians ourselves. We know the feeling of always being placed at the opening of a show in order to kill time while the crowds pile in. We understand the inner, self defeating dialogue that comes up when the conversation grows louder than our song. We hope to provide an environment where female musicians feel empowered and comfortable sharing their music and their story. We also want the community to have an opportunity to really focus in on the talent the is growing right in front of their eyes.",

        "raw_content": "Project plans have long been the domain of the project manager. Usually they\u2019re written at the beginning of the project lifecycle, then filed neatly away and updated once or twice if time permits. This \u201cmap\u201d of the project isn\u2019t very useful tucked away in a drawer. And what team member is going to bother opening a Microsoft Project file every day?\nToday, your project plan doesn\u2019t need to be just an artifact of a last month\u2019s planning session \u2013 it can be the compass that guides each day\u2019s work. In LiquidPlanner, if the plan changes every day, that\u2019s a good thing: it means it\u2019s keeping up with reality. Here are three steps to follow to get a living project plan that can guide your team through the ups and downs of every project:\nStep 1: Share the load\nIf updating the schedule is solely the project manager\u2019s responsibility, it falls quickly out of date because of daily firefighting, coordination, and meetings. Only when a customer or exec asks for an updated plan does the project manager scramble to mark items 100% complete and \u201cgreen up\u201d the project schedule. (Sound familiar?)\nWe believe that when it comes to project administration, many hands make light work (and a more accurate schedule). If every team member takes five minutes a day to update their progress, re-estimate remaining work, and add necessary comments or documents, the schedule stays current and the project manager is freed up from a huge administrative burden. When self-updates become a habit, everyone benefits.\nStep 2: Change the agenda\nCongratulations! If you followed step #1, you\u2019ve just saved yourself at least one hour of project status meetings each week and probably some informal meetings, too. Instead of going around the room and finding out what\u2019s done and what\u2019s not, team meetings can now be spent addressing roadblocks, evaluating new work requests, analyzing workloads, and other critical business. This keeps projects flowing and communication strong, allowing leaders to make the best decisions possible.\nStep 3: Centralize communication and get out of email\nEmail overload comes with some pretty costly side effects: wasted time, difficulty locating information, and \u201clost\u201d business intelligence. But what if you could move conversations about projects out of your email inbox and into your project management system? That\u2019s exactly what LiquidPlanner teams do, and they operate more efficiently because of it.\nWhen you need to remember something about a task or project, ATTACH it to that item in the plan. When you need to communicate about a task or project, comment ON that item in the plan. That creates a public record and information archive for each piece of work, so no matter what happens to it (whether it\u2019s marked done, escalated, or postponed), the critical collateral stays with it. And when you start work on a task, you don\u2019t have to search through old email files to find the information you need to do the job.\nAn added bonus: your team can see what you\u2019re working on (and vice versa), creating a better implicit understanding of how everyone is contributing to the team. It\u2019s just like on Facebook \u2013 you don\u2019t have to comment on each person\u2019s status update, but when you see them, you have a better sense of what they\u2019ve been up to. You might even find out that you share a common interest or challenge, and you can both learn from that. Email has its place, but centralizing project communication alongside with the plan itself can make your project team even better.\nFile Management and Box Integration\nDistributed Project Management was last modified: June 1st, 2016 by Zareen Maurer",

        "raw_content": "Controversy erupts as Texas high school blocks Planned Parenthood from student computers\nHouston Independent School District in Texas is under fire after a student at Lamar High School discovered that the district blocked access to PlannedParenthood.org, the National Abortion Federation\u2019s ProChoice.org, and other pro-abortion websites on its Wi-Fi network, the Houston Press reports.\n\u201cAccess Denied,\u201d read the message Grace Wells received. \u201cThe site you are attempting to visit is blocked because it belongs to the following category: Abortion.\u201d Not blocked, however, was ProLifeAcrossAmerica.org.\nHISD initially told the Houston Press that \u201cdistrict policy is in line with the federal Children\u2019s Internet Protection Act,\u201d which requires schools to block minors from seeing content of a pornographic or otherwise harmful nature. CIPA\u2019s text does not specifically mention abortion, but Planned Parenthood has encouraged minors to view pornography in consultations caught on hidden camera and on Teenwire.com.\nIn response to further media inquiries and pressure from Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, HISD claims their policy is to block both pro- and anti-abortion content for elementary students, but allow it for middle and high school students. \u201cIT will be reviewing internet filters for student accounts to ensure all settings are in compliance with district policy,\u201d they promise in a statement.\nWells feels the district is doing a disservice to its students, in large part because \u201c97 percent of their business is not related to abortion [\u2026] It\u2019s a medical resource, an informational resource, and there\u2019s a ton of information on their website that we\u2019re not allowed to see on campus that would be extremely helpful to us.\u201d\nHowever, that percentage is calculated by weighing abortions equally with far less expensive or elaborate services, such as pap smears or picking up birth control. More recent figures suggest that 94 percent of pregnant women entering Planned Parenthood receive abortions, which are rising as the amount of adoption referrals, prenatal care, and tests for other medical conditions have declined in recent years. Planned Parenthood does about 30 percent of all U.S. abortions, according to their latest annual report, which makes them the largest abortion provider in the country.",

        "raw_content": "In the pro-life closet? Here are 3 ways to \u201ccome out\u201d\nBy Kristen Hatten | August 14, 2013 , 10:06am\n\u201cI\u2019m still in the pro-life closet, and I don\u2019t know how to come out!\u201d\nI have been told this a surprising number of times, but it never fails to stir my sympathy. I remember coming out.\nIt\u2019s difficult now to describe the feeling I had then, in the winter of 2006, but I knew in my gut that a lot of things were about to change. As a recent convert, it had never occurred to me how much belief in abortion \u201crights\u201d was part and parcel with the lifestyle I was leading then. I was in my twenties; I was an actor and writer, a self-described liberal feminist, and most of my friends were pot-smoking punk rockers, artists of various stripes, comics and entertainers, burgeoning intellectuals, and the like. I had a gut feeling my friends and fellows would have a hard time accepting this change of heart.\nIn those dim, long-ago days, I came out on my MySpace blog. (Google it; maybe you can find some old black and white photographs.) MySpace was huge then, and roughly everyone I had ever met read my blog posts. The comments section came alive with a heated debate, amid cries that I had been brainwashed, or that it was just a phase. A nasty, evil, woman-hating phase.\nSeven years later, it\u2019s looking less and less like a phase.\nNot long after this, I would REALLY freak my friends out \u2013 and lose quite a few of them \u2013 when I announced my intention to become a Catholic. But that\u2019s another story. Despite all this drama, I\u2019m still glad I \u201ccame out\u201d using social media \u2013 I\u2019m one of those who prefers to rip off the Band-Aid quickly \u2013 but it\u2019s not for everyone.\nIf you\u2019re struggling with how to reveal your pro-life beliefs to some or all of your family, friends, and peers \u2013 or just want to be more public about your views on abortion \u2013 here are a few ideas about how to do it.\nThis is the quickest and easiest way, most of the time. When I say \u201ceasy,\u201d I mean it requires the least legwork. Please understand that coming out may not be easy, no matter how you do it.\nMost people who aren\u2019t already \u201cout\u201d are converts \u2013 usually somewhat recent \u2013 who have a lot of pro-choice family and friends. Maybe you\u2019re the only pro-life person you know. I almost was. I had one friend I knew was pro-life, the one who converted me. Seven years later, I have several pro-life friends and about a brazilian pro-life web buddies. So you have a lot of good stuff to look forward to.\nFind an article that lays out your beliefs perfectly \u2013 skim the Live Action archives \u2013 or, if you\u2019re a writer, pen one yourself. Post it to Facebook, say a little prayer, and remember that it will all be over soon.\nIf you\u2019re not into Facebook, Twitter works, too, especially if brevity and bluntness are more your speed. Just attach the article \u2013 or a photo that says it all \u2013 to a tweet reading, \u201cHey guess what? I\u2019m #prolife and here\u2019s why.\u201d\nAdvantages: A quick and easy way to tell everybody at once; might be easier to handle comments and questions in writing than in real life.\nDisadvantages: Impersonal; might offend some people who wish you\u2019d told them in person.\nIf you know someone who is going to have a hard time with your decision, consider telling him or her face to face. This might be the best bet not only for someone who will particularly care about your newfound fetus love, but for those who don\u2019t particularly care either way. \u201cOh, hey did I tell you I\u2019m pro-life now?\u201d \u201cReally? Cool. Let\u2019s watch another episode of \u2018Fringe.'\u201d\nIf you have buddies or relatives who, say, works at an abortion clinic, or routinely throws condiment-coated hot dogs at sidewalk counselors, you might want to tell them in person, out of respect for how important the issue is to them. It will almost definitely be a very difficult conversation, but it\u2019s a great way to show you are a stand-up guy who has the intestinal fortitude to look somebody in the eye, tell the truth, and hash it out.\nAdvantages: You may get to practice your debating skills; it shows respect and a commitment to your belief.\nDisadvantages: Pretty obvious: it\u2019s always difficult to look people in the eye and disappoint them. Also, be prepared to defend your beliefs.\n3. Subtle and Gradual\nThis is kind of a \u201csoft\u201d coming-out. Instead of \u201cHey, guys, listen: I\u2019m pro-life,\u201d you more or less just let it slip. This can involve wearing a T-shirt with your beliefs printed on it, but that\u2019s not everyone\u2019s speed. (It\u2019s not mine.) My compromise is the bumper sticker. I have a cool one on my truck that the folks at Life Dynamics gave me.\nIf you\u2019re still in school, consider joining a student group like Students for Life of America and wear or display some of their swag. If you\u2019re not in school, there are probably pro-life groups in your community, and of course there are plenty online.\nIn general, joining a pro-life group can be a good way to start learning how to talk to all kinds of people about abortion, and you may find that being open about your beliefs no longer feels like such a daunting task.\nThere\u2019s also the subtle social media reveal: just start posting pro-life stuff and wait for people to notice. Depending on how rabidly pro-choice your online buddies are, this can work great. If nobody you know has a strong opinion about abortion, you might get a \u201cwho cares?\u201d response. But if lots of your friends think Planned Parenthood is a gift from Heaven, just go ahead and post an explanation right off the bat. They\u2019re gonna want one.\nAdvantages: This may be the way to go if you\u2019re not the direct type, or like to avoid confrontation.\nDisadvantages: It may take a while for everyone to notice you\u2019re pro-life.\nThere are other options for letting everybody know you\u2019re cool with letting fetuses live: mass text or e-mail, skywriting, you name it. There are as many ways to come out as there are people.\nAny method you choose has two great advantages: one, you\u2019ll feel a profound sense of relief once it\u2019s over with, in no small part because you\u2019re being true to yourself and your beliefs. Two, you\u2019re about to make a lot of new friends. Pro-lifers are the salt of the earth, the kindest people you\u2019ll ever meet, and the rare exceptions only prove the rule.\nOnce you\u2019re out, there are about a million ways to get involved. Take your talents and put them to work for life.",

        "raw_content": "This study was part of one of the world's longest-running wild animal population studies. The researchers used genetic analysis techniques to draw up the family trees for over 450 bats in the attics of Woodchester Mansion in Gloucestershire, UK.\nThis research is detailed in the Sept. 15 issue of the journal Nature.\nFor most of the year, female horseshoe bats live in a colony separate from the males, which generally live off on their own. The females raise the young together in a large group, presumably to keep warm and for safety reasons.\nBut once a year the females and males all get together for a wild mating season during which one male may be shared by several generations of females.\nSo how did these bats start this kinky behavior? One answer could be that generations ago the female colony all made the trip to the same mating site. Once there, the females may have shared information with each other about which of the males were good mates.\n\"The consequence is that the levels of relatedness increase dramatically in the colony,\" Rossiter said.\nSomehow in all the confusion of hundreds of bats all trying to find a mate, the females manage to avoid mating with their fathers.\n\"We don't actually know how, but we have some suspicions,\" Rossiter said. \"Presumably it's through some sort of olfactory sense - they smell out who their relatives are.\"\nAnimals in the wild generally tend to avoid inbreeding, although researchers aren't entirely sure they know how this works. One thing they do know is that incest can cause the expression of harmful genetic information.\nEach gene is made up of two alleles, which come in dominant and recessive versions. If an individual has a combination of the two versions, they're heterozygous for this gene. If they have either two copies of the dominant, or two copies of the recessive, they're homozygous for the gene.\nIf an individual is heterozygous, the dominant allele wins out and gets expressed. This is good for the individual if the recessive allele is harmful. Incest creates an increase of homozygous parings in a population, making it more likely that a harmful recessive-recessive could occur.\n\"The expression of these harmful alleles can lead to lowered reproduction and survival, known as inbreeding depression,\" Rossiter said.\nWith Fresh Blood, Inbred Florida Panthers Rebound\nThe Offbeat Science of Collecting Animal Semen\nSalmon of Small Stature Endowed with Mating Advantage\nFiddler Crabs: World's Pickiest Mates\nFemale Mass Killers: Why They're So Rare\nPythons Are Cold-Blooded Killers, But At Least They're Not Negligent Mothers\nBjorn Carey,\nBjorn Carey is the science information officer at Stanford University.

        "title": "Thomas Brulport on Self-Consumption of Renewable Energy",
        "raw_content": "Thomas Brulport recently joined Locogen for a Renewable Energy Engineering Internship. During his time with us he has been working on projects for the French market, alongside Locogen SAS Managing Director, C\u00e9dric Gerbier, in Locogen's Edinburgh Headquarters. Here, Thomas shares some details of his work on self-consumption of renewable energy produced in the community.\nTell us why you got into renewables and what most excites you?\nI am from a small village of 160 inhabitants called Lomont sur Cr\u00eate in the North-East of France, not far from the Swiss border. When I was a boy, I vividly remember seeing a wind farm being constructed a few miles away. Since then, my interest in renewables has grown as I focused my studies and my career path on the industry.\nCurrently, I am studying for a double master's degree at the French engineering school, 'Arts et M\u00e9tiers Paristech\u2019, although this year I had the opportuntity to do my MSc in Renewable Energy at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh. During my stay, I kept in contact with C\u00e9dric, the Managing Director of Locogen SAS, whom I met when working for another renewable energy company in France. He then offered me the chance to work in Locogen's Edinburgh office on a Renewable Engineering Internship.\nWith the cost of solar and wind energy rapidly decreasing, most people can recognise that it is an exciting time to work in renewables. However, what really interests me is the development of self-consumption where those involved in producing the electricity directly benefit by consuming it. I am convinced that self-consumption of renewable energy will play a large role in the energy transition by involving citizens in the process to produce their own electricity.\nThe project I'm currently working on for both my master's dissertation and Locogen, is a feasibility study. The research is focused on how to enhance and repurpose a former landfill site in a Northern French city by using renewable energy. Currently, there are proposals to install a solar plant on this landfill, which conventionally would then provide electricity for the grid. However, most solar projects are developed in the South of France because of the competitive Feed-in Tariff (FiT) process, where the lowest cost generation wins the contract. Those in the North do not often reach the best MWh price to attract the FiT. Hence we are considering different options to consume the electricity within the local community.\nFor me, this project was of interest because I could develop my knowledge on renewable energy self-consumption as well as further understand hydrogen use in transport as an alternative to traditional fuel. In addition, this project allowed me to be part of an inspiring and innovative company, which enabled me to enhance my knowledge across many different fields and technologies. I am delighted that Locogen is helping me in this process.\nThe main outcome of this project will be to present a pre-feasibility study to the city council displaying the main options to enhance the landfill.\nCurrently, six different scenarios have been identified as being plausible and are classified in three different categories: individual self-consumption, individual self-consumption with hydrogen, and collective self-consumption. Hence, I must first analyse the economic and technical feasibility of each scenario to then identify the optimal option.\nWhat are the benefits this work will bring?\nFirstly, my project will form a foundation on which the city council and Locogen can make decisions about which project is worth developing. It is very exciting to think that my work may be the catalyst for an innovative project that could then provide a practical example highlighting an instance of energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables.\nSecondly, to produce the best quality work, I am carrying out several sub-studies examining the external environment. For instance, I have considered the legal frame of self-consumption in France, grid stabilisation mechanisms in France, and European and national subsidies available to develop innovation.\nSome key findings about self-consumption?\nIt became clear during this project that collective self-consumption is not yet ready to be developed on a large scale due to the legal and economic constraints on the French electricity grid. In fact, there are only a few collective self-consumption projects active or in-development within France due to these restrictions.\nIn addition, after several simulations, it has been confirmed that it is possible to generate enough hydrogen by electrolysis to power four hydrogen buses from a mid-sized solar plant. This highlights the potential cities have to be self-sufficient within their energy consumption, taking control of the fuel supply chain, whilst also making a positive environmental impact.\nIn France, self-consumption is not yet well developed. By the end of 2017, only 20,000 households were recorded as self-consumers (or prosumers, a mix between producer and active consumer). This is a very small amount compared to our European neighbours, such as Belgium with 380,000 households, the UK with 750,000 households, or Germany with more than 1.5 million. Having said this, new legislation is making self-consumption of renewable energy less strict in France and this should aid the development of this local energy model in the next few years.\nAt the same time, the French government announced plans to help fund the hydrogen sector. A sum of 100 million euros will be distributed during a five-year period to encourage the establishment of this rising industry in France, something which is very promising for a potential transition into clean transportation. These are exciting times indeed for this sector of the renewable energy industry and I'm looking forward to being a part of it.",

        "title": "Conviction and vigour in Obama's IS speech | The Interpreter",
        "raw_content": "Conviction and vigour in Obama's IS speech\nJames Bowen ,\nThere were relatively few plot twists for a prime time television spectacle but you have to hand it to the leading man: he hasn't put in such a convincing performance in a long time.\nThe main points of Barack Obama's widely telecast speech to the American public tonight did not depart significantly from those which had already been released to the media and the wider public earlier in the day and week. The President promised a significantly expanded US-led military campaign to target the rising threat of the violent Islamic State (IS) movement, which he identified as not only a danger to the Middle East but also increasingly to US citizens (Obama referenced the murders of journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff).\nThis plan includes US airstrikes in Syria, following an earlier reluctance to become directly involved in tackling IS there, and the deployment of a further 475 military advisers to Iraq. The President also called on Congress to support further measures including the training and arming (reportedly to the tune of US$500 million) of the Free Syrian Army, set up to oppose the Bashar al-Assad regime, to take up the new challenge of repelling IS.\nAgain, however, he stopped short of committing US ground troops to another potentially deadly and protracted campaign in a far-flung location.\nGiven the relative lack of surprises, the most notable feature of the performance was the level of conviction with which the President articulated these points, recalling for a brief time the vim and vigour on which he established his political reputation only a few years ago. Gone was the painfully slow pace of delivery and the not-so-pregnant pauses that characterised many of his recent announcements, particularly in this troubled foreign policy sphere.\nSpeaking after the Public Broadcasting Service telecast of the speech, New York Times columnist and frequent Obama critic David Brooks went as far as to praise the President for so clearly articulating his desired pathway, despite the fact that most of us realise he is a reluctant strongman when it comes to such matters.\nIn Obama's words themselves, there was even a fairly significant change in the recent rhetoric emanating from the White House, which has implied that the US needed to accept a lesser role in dictating world affairs and embrace a greater degree of multilateralism.\nTowards the end of the speech the President tied the current mission against IS into a more familiar trumpeting of American exceptionalism and the nation's stand for 'freedom, for justice, for dignity.' At times it strongly recalled the efforts of his predecessor George W Bush, as with the pronouncement that 'It is America that has the capacity and the will to mobilise the world against terrorists' \u2013 words that take on more significance in light of Obama's Bush-like willingness to circumvent the established protocols of Congress and other institutions.\nThese developments understandably have many worried that we will see a return to larger scale war and another of those painful legacies of instability and lawlessness that produced the conditions conducive to the rise of IS in the first place. Obama categorically denies that this is the path down which the US and its allies are traveling, but could the President's sense of returning vitality belie some more worrying truth?\nPhoto courtesy of @WhiteHouse.\nPacific island links: Fiji election, Tonga loans, Gaston Flosse, Micronesia trade and morePrevious Article\nIn his own words: Obama on 'perpetual war'Next Article\nIs World Bank chief economist Dr Paul Romer being sidelined?

        "raw_content": "Marquette offices move to Thomas Hall\nWADNER PIERRE\nRenovations at Thomas Hall ended earlier August 2011.\nBy KRISTEN DIAZ\nThe renovation of Thomas Hall was completed earlier this month, concluding Phase I of the facilities master plan the university implemented last year that involves the construction of certain areas of the school.\nThe facilities master plan stated that the renovation of Thomas Hall was meant to improve student retention and recruitment by housing existing administrative offices in one place. It had a budget of $14.5 million for improvements, which was the largest budget of all the projects in Phase I of the master plan, including the added levels in the West Road Garage and improvements on Loyola Avenue. This budget covered architectural fees, furniture, updates to the heating and cooling infrastructure, as well as other matters necessary for the improvements.\nThomas Hall is also pending LEED certification, showing that the hall was built to be green and sustainable. The points gained throughout the planning and construction of the hall will be rewarded based on the sustainability of the building through construction, design and operations within the hall.\nThomas Hall will be the new home for the offices of Admissions and Enrollment, Enrollment Management, Scholarships and Financial Aid, Student Records, Student Finance and the Bursar\u2019s Office, which were all previously located in Marquette Hall. This move will help facilitate the creation of more classroom space in Marquette Hall.\nDespite the budget, there were some unexpected complications with the aged infrastructure of the building, which caused minor setbacks.\n\u201cWith an older building there are always many surprises,\u201d said Ann Moss, director of Facilities Operations. \u201cWe had to update the older building codes to current codes.\u201d\nAfter the Board of Trustees approved the financing of the renovation in December 2009, architectural design began in January 2010 followed by construction in March, which finished earlier this month.\nThomas Hall\u2019s history dates back to the university\u2019s founding in 1912, when it was built as a residence for the Jesuit fathers. It was also used after Hurricane Katrina as a residence hall for returning students.\nVice President of Enrollment Management Salvadore Liberto is one of the many staff members who has moved into the renovated space.\n\u201cThe university has created a space astonishing in its beauty and functionality,\u201d Liberto said.\nStudents share a similar view.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a very convenient move. It\u2019s nice to see actual progress from all the construction,\u201d said Michael Catalano, political science sophomore.\nKristen Diaz can be reached at [email protected]\nRenovations to Thomas Hall were completed August 2011.

I sat in the middle of a little wood, just to the side of Kenilworth Chapel in East London, on 9 October 1994. The church looked closed and unattended. All around me, in tangles of ivy and nettles and scrub, lay hundreds of dilapidated grave-stones. They sloped every which way, and off into the distance, across a wide open ground beneath the Beckton flyover. The graveyards in English cities, especially in the east of those cities, are nearly always wasted and terrible. In Scotland, the tombstones are made to stand up; and the grass is most often cut and weeded. I was fairly shocked the first time I saw a London graveyard \u2013 in Walthamstow, I remember. It had nothing to do with the decorous, landscaped dead-parks of recent memory: it was a place where riot and decay ruled. It looked like a spot where time was having its way.\nI sat on a stone, bent over a piece of paper. I was copying down the inscriptions on some of the gravestones. As I was doing so, two boys \u2013 around or about ten \u2013 nipped between the graves just a little off to the right. One of them wore a West Ham top; the other was a flash of yellow. Their missiles (clods of dirt and pebble-dash) would come from nowhere and bounce off the tombs still standing. You\u2019d hear giggles, and see some yellow, then a stripe of claret; they\u2019d peep for a second and disappear. The more I ignored them, the braver they got. They started letting out little hollers, rinky-dink battle-charges, but I sat still. I was laughing a bit by this time, and they obviously knew I knew about them. Eventually, they got within one or two tombstones, and I looked up from the page. \u2018What is it?\u2019 I said. \u2018Cunt,\u2019 they said, running away, tumbling through a wall of ivy as if the whole world was after them.\nThe stone to my right was Africa-shaped and fringed with damp moss. Most of the writing was gone now. \u2018Also Rebecca Askham, mother of the above\u2019, I could make out. And then: \u2018who died October 1st 1903. Aged 50 years.\u2019 The nettles around the bottom were at the top of their power. They stood for pain. The stone on my other side was in memory of \u2018Frank Cyril Nicholson, who died January 13th 1897, aged 14 years\u2019. It was a cool day, very quiet at times, then some horn or deep engine on the dual carriageway would break in. Frank Cyril died after 14 years; died, it seems, of natural causes. His death must have been very sad, but was probably not mysterious. His was a named loss. The cause was known, the end was marked, his spot was here, and was in a manner of speaking sacred. I sat thinking about all this, feeling the breeze well enough, and considering the script carved below Frank Cyril\u2019s dates: \u2018In the midst of life,\u2019 it said, \u2018we are in death.\u2019\nI had a stick, and with other people, later that day, I searched the long field of stones around the Chapel for traces of a missing boy. Daniel Handley, aged nine, had been missing from his home on the Windsor Park Estate since the previous Sunday. As I made my way down the field, losing sight of other people, I grew more and more uneasy. This was the largest patch of scrub near to Daniel\u2019s home. I turned over in my head the various things that could have happened. I looked through the undergrowth, poking with the stick, and I reached a place almost under the flyover itself. The traffic noise was now thunderous, and the grass seemed longer than at any other point. My breath was quite short. It felt wrong to walk in this deep grass. Not just unsafe. Wrong. As I made my way through the field, looking into the grass and under bushes for signs of the boy \u2013 hoping there would be nothing \u2013 I found it hard to keep my footing. The light at the top of Canary Wharf blinked just over the other side of the carriageway and the sun was high up. The tower looked broad and massive, and its windows gleamed like the vicar\u2019s collar. Daniel Handley was missing, and we were there trying to find him. We were there, walking on graves, trying to find the missing boy.\nVol. 17 No. 11 \u00b7 8 June 1995 \u00bb Andrew O\u2019Hagan \u00bb Lost Boys",

        "title": "Why British politicians keep swearing on the campaign trail - Luton Today",
        "raw_content": "Why British politicians keep swearing on the campaign trail\nDamien Hall, Newcastle University\nSometimes it can be bloody difficult to make your point. It\u2019s a daily problem for politicians, but the stakes change on the election campaign trail; and as the stakes change, so does the speech.\nThe 2017 British general election race has brought out quite a bit of unparliamentary language from people standing for election and the people supporting them. But these are rarely slips of the tongue. In fact, British politicians use risqu\u00e9 language for quite specific reasons, particularly ahead of an election.\nOn May 2, Theresa May kicked off the swearing by saying that Jean-Claude Juncker would find her a \u201cbloody difficult woman\u201d in Brexit negotiations. \u201cBloody\u201d is commonly considered a swear word, and its use is quite frequent in British English. Though it\u2019s mild (at least as judged by linguist Tony McEnery in Swearing in English, and formerly by the BBC and the Advertising Standards Authority), politicians still wouldn\u2019t want to be caught saying it unscripted in public. But that\u2019s just the thing here \u2013 May\u2019s phrasing, though colloquial, was far from off the cuff.\nWith \u201cbloody difficult woman\u201d, Britain\u2019s prime minister was repurposing a phrase famously used to describe her by Ken Clarke, one of the heavyweight Conservative MPs of the late 20th century. Her use of the phrase therefore says: \u201cIf you want me to do the kind of thing that got me here, vote Conservative\u201d. As a particularly British insult it\u2019s therefore effective to use bloody in a context where May might well want to imply that British identity, values and strength need to be protected and emphasised \u2013 such as Brexit.\nA week after May outed herself as bloody difficult, actress Julie Hesmondhalgh was introducing Jeremy Corbyn at a rally in Manchester. She appealed to voters to vote Labour for \u201ca society that truly gives a toss about stuff\u201d. She described Corbyn as \u201ca man who has dedicated his life to giving a toss about other people\u201d.\nThis wasn\u2019t the first time she had used the phrase, either. She spoke in the same terms at a rally in 2015. Hesmondhalgh is most famous for a long run in Coronation Street, known for dealing with \u201creal-life\u201d and difficult situations, so many people would see her as someone who might swear in public if the occasion demanded it.\nMost respondents to my recent Twitter poll (unscientific, I admit) think of \u201ctoss\u201d in \u201cgive/care a toss\u201d as swearing: specifically, a euphemism for masturbation.\nThe majority of responders (62%) thought \u201cI don\u2019t give a toss\u201d referred to masturbation. The other option, chosen by 38%, was that it referred to coin-tossing \u2013 the idea being that the topic is inconsequential enough that it can be decided by chance.\nMost recently on May, 14 Emily Thornberry, the shadow foreign secretary, accused defence secretary Michael Fallon of talking \u201cbollocks\u201d on live TV. \u201cBollocks\u201d originally meant \u201ctesticles\u201d (and was considered standard until the 17th century), but it\u2019s now used to mean \u201cnonsense\u201d, among other things. It was also ruled un-obscene by a UK court in 1977.\nOver half the respondents to that BBC/ASA survey thought it was \u201cvery\u201d or \u201cquite\u201d severe swearing. Like Julie Hesmondhalgh, Thornberry has form, though not in such a blatant way. Last May she mouthed the same word in the House of Commons while David Cameron was speaking. So it seems as if the episode with Michael Fallon was merely the most public of a number of public uses of this usually un-public word.\nBeing like us\nWhat conclusion can we draw from these trips into the light by words usually kept in the shadows? It\u2019s worth noting that many other cultures simply would not allow them into public life. The reasons why Americans, for instance, may react more strongly than British people to swearing are too complex to summarise in a brief mention, but maybe it\u2019s partly due to another word for swearing in the US: \u201ccursing\u201d. That\u2019s a telltale sign that there, profanity sometimes retains more of the religious sentiment that originally inspired many ways of swearing everywhere.\nIn France, slightly differently, many people don\u2019t want to see their serious mainstream politicians as people who swear. As Fran\u00e7ois Fillon found when using the word \u201cemmerder\u201d on the 2017 campaign trail, a French politician is generally expected to rise above the fray, and not show themselves vulnerable to the slights that would drive Monsieur et Madame Untel (France\u2019s Mr and Mrs So-and-so) to profanity.\nThe people of the UK, though, want their politicians to be grounded. They want them to be like the average person \u2013 moved by the same things, affected by the same sorts of problems. And one way they can show that is if they swear (a little bit) like the rest of us. But only a little bit, because in the end Britons do want them to be different enough to be able to solve problems ordinary folks can\u2019t.\nThat\u2019s why politicians\u2019 swearing is so carefully circumscribed: the public doesn\u2019t want to know that actually they\u2019re just like everyone else, but does want to see that they are just enough like everyone else to appreciate everyday problems. The British people want to know that their politicians give a toss.",

Speich launched \u2018Movin Minds Practice\u2019 at the school years ago. At the start of each day, students take two minutes to breathe and focus. Speich believes this practice is making an impact and says families are noticing a difference too.\nOur schools wrapped up parent-teacher conferences a couple weeks ago. At Toki Middle School, students took part by showcasing their work. Student-led conferences are designed to have middle school students prepare, present their work and progress, articulate their goals and lead the conversation, instead of families sitting down and listening to the teacher talk about their children. Read more about student-led conferences in this story from the Wisconsin State Journal.\nThank you for providing feedback on our Behavior Education Plan over the past two months. Through responses to our online feedback form and through our series of feedback sessions, we've gathered significant input on our policy, resources and implementation that will guide our planning over the next few months. Strong themes on the need for efficient and consistent response to classrooms to minimize disruption, and the need for more supports for students with intensive needs emerged. Our Board of Education Ad Hoc Committee will be drafting recommendations and policy revisions in December that will go to the Board for review in January. We plan to use the spring to collaborate with school teams in making sure we are ready to implement the changes in the fall of 2019.",

        "raw_content": "SFO makes first charges in Libor scandal\nFormer trader Tom Hayes is the first person to be charged in connection with Libor. He won't be the last.\nIt\u2019s a landmark day for the Serious Fraud Office: it has made its first charge in connection with the Libor rate-fixing scandal. Tom \u2018rainman\u2019 Hayes (nicknamed for his brilliance and poor social skills), the 33-year-old former UBS and Citigroup trader, is its man \u2013 he\u2019s been charged with eight counts of conspiracy to defraud.\nHayes was a well-known trader, joining the Tokyo branch of UBS in 2006, and swiftly progressing to become one of its top traders of interest rate derivatives indexed to yen-denominated Libor, generating nearly $260m before he went to join Citigroup in 2009.\nHe was arrested, along with two others (who haven\u2019t been charged), by the SFO last year, but wasn\u2019t charged until this morning. He will appear before Westminster magistrate court on Thursday \u2013 although his lawyers have previously made clear that Hayes denies involvement in the scandal. In February, in a text from him to Wall Street Journal journalist David Enrich, he said \u2018this goes much higher than me\u2019.\nThe race is now on between British, US and Asian fraud investigators to secure convictions against the companies and traders responsible for the scam. The trouble is, the charges could put the SFO in conflict with a similar body in the US. Hayes was charged with similar dealings by the Department of Justice in December \u2013 although international precedent suggests that criminal matters should be resolved in his own country before he is extradited.\nThree banks \u2013 including Barclays, UBS and RBS \u2013 have been already paid $2.6bn (\u00a31.7bn) for the scandal. Now the investigation focuses on the individuals involved. The SFO could do with a win: with its wounds from recent troubles (Tchenguiz, Autonomy) still fresh, this is its chance to prove itself.\n- Image: Flickr/ell brown",

        "raw_content": "Home Opinions Celebrity arguments distract from feminist goals\nCelebrity arguments distract from feminist goals\nIn October of 2014, pop singer Kesha filed a lawsuit against her music producer, Dr. Luke, charging him with sexual assault and battery. Kesha claimed the abuse had occurred over the course of 10 years, beginning when she was 18 years old.\nAccording to Kesha, Dr. Luke had \u201csexually, physically, verbally and emotionally abused [her] to the point where [she] nearly lost her life.\u201d\nThe case has recently garnered huge public attention, as on Feb. 19, 2016, the New York Supreme Court declared that Kesha would not be released from her contract with Dr. Luke. The court said that the star\u2019s sexual assault allegations were not enough to remove her from the contract and that she is consequently not permitted to work with any other producers.\nIn response, feminists are taking the matter into their own hands. Many are speaking out on the devastating reality of our societally skewed attitude towards women and sexual assault. Demi Lovato, a self-proclaimed feminist, has been extremely vocal about the situation, particularly through her Twitter account. Taylor Swift also showed support, donating $250,000 to aid Kesha with legal expenses. In addition to fervently expressing her opinion that the court decision was both unjust and sexist, Lovato was further agitated by Swift\u2019s actions.\nIn response to Swift\u2019s donation Lovato tweeted, \u201ctake something to Capitol Hill or actually speak out about [it], and then I\u2019ll be impressed.\u201d\nLovato expressed her frustration at what she perceives as \u201cthrowing money\u201d at these issues, suggesting that it does nothing to ensure women like Kesha will receive justice. Lovato, and many of her supporters, are of the opinion that opening a dialogue on issues such as these is the only way to find a solution Meanwhile Swift and her supporters believe that the monetary donation was effective in taking action rather than \u201cjust tweeting about it.\u201d\nBoth celebrities identify as feminists, and they live up to this title by supporting Kesha in the face of the alleged, long-lasting abuse by Dr. Luke and inaction of the courts. While passionate and sometimes vulgar, Lovato\u2019s tweets have effectively guided the attention of thousands to the issue.\nOn Feb. 25, Lovato tweeted, \u201cWomen empowerment is speaking up for other women even when it\u2019s something uncomfortable to speak up about.\u201d\nWhile Swift\u2019s donation is a strong demonstration of support, I agree with Lovato: to achieve equality between men and women we must open up a dialogue about sexism. Because she is in such a position of influence, Lovato\u2019s strong opposition has served to draw attention to the severity of this situation. While Swift has also used her influence to show support for Kesha, her actions demonstrated that she is on the defensive rather than the offensive when it comes to feminism and women\u2019s rights.\nIf we expect patriarchal cultural norms to change, we must take action to prevent sexual assault. While Swift was not in the wrong to show support through a financial donation, a strong public statement would have been more impactful.\nThis whole debacle draws attention away from the real issue. Lovato has good intentions, but she made a mistake by attacking Swift. If strong American female influences continue criticizing one another over the proper way to advocate for social justice, a solidified feminist approach to such events will be unreachable. Celebrities such as Lovato and Swift are responsible to collaborate and support one another on issues such as these. Such aggression is counterproductive and distracts from the agenda at hand.\nWe need to acknowledge the gravity of the Feb. 19 court decision. The New York Supreme Court ruled that sexual, physical and emotional abuse allegations are not enough to enforce measures that ensure victims will not be subjected to the same treatment again. A musical contract was valued higher than a woman\u2019s safety. What would be enough to guarantee the abuse stops? When will female safety take priority over male profits?\nAvery Ellfeldt \u201919 (ellfel1@stolaf.edu) is from Denver, Colo.

After researching sustainable ingredients that go into earth-friendly product, I used the fact that oil and honey were used in most eco-friendly products. I combined the structured, scientific side of the creation of cleaning products with an elegant and modern style to target my specific user.\nThe clean structure of the logo was chosen to represent the simpleness of the ingredients used in each product. Then to represent the organic materials, I used the gold and natural brush strokes to mimic the oil and honey ingredients\nThe packaging was made with various materials but is consistent by implementing the same brand standards throughout. For the gold effect on the packaging, I ran the logo printed with toner ink through a laminator to transfer the gold foil onto the paper.\nThe web aspect of the company was created to inform customers of the story behind the business and to inform them of the products and where they are available.",

        "title": "Why you may want to accelerate your property tax payment into 2017 - Marks Paneth",
        "raw_content": "Accelerating deductible expenses, such as property tax on your home, into the current year typically is a good idea. Why? It will defer tax, which usually is beneficial. Prepaying property tax may be especially beneficial this year, because proposed tax legislation might reduce or eliminate the benefit of the property tax deduction beginning in 2018.\nThe initial version of the House tax bill would cap the property tax deduction for individuals at $10,000. The initial version of the Senate tax bill would eliminate the property tax deduction for individuals altogether.\nIn addition, tax rates under both bills would go down for many taxpayers, making deductions less valuable. And because the standard deduction would increase significantly under both bills, some taxpayers might no longer benefit from itemizing deductions.\n2017 year-end planning\nYou can prepay (by December 31) property taxes that relate to 2017 but that are due in 2018 and deduct the payment on your 2017 return. But you generally can\u2019t prepay property tax that relates to 2018 and deduct the payment on your 2017 return.\nPrepaying property tax will in most cases be beneficial if the property tax deduction is eliminated beginning in 2018. But even if the property tax deduction is retained, prepaying could still be beneficial. Here\u2019s why:\nIf your property tax bill is very large, prepaying is likely a good idea in case the property tax deduction is capped beginning in 2018.\nIf you could be subject to a lower tax rate in 2018 or won\u2019t have enough itemized deductions overall in 2018 to exceed a higher standard deduction, prepaying is also likely tax-smart because a property tax deduction next year would have less or no benefit.\nHowever, there are a few caveats:\nIf you\u2019re subject to the AMT in 2017, you won\u2019t get any benefit from prepaying your property tax. And if the property tax deduction is retained for 2018, the prepayment could cost you a tax-saving opportunity next year.\nIf your income is high enough that the income-based itemized deduction reduction applies to you, the tax benefit of a prepayment may be reduced.\nWhile the initial versions of both the House and Senate bills generally lower tax rates, some taxpayers might still end up being subject to higher tax rates in 2018, either because of tax law changes or simply because their income goes up next year. If you\u2019re among them and the property tax deduction is retained, you may save more tax by holding off on paying property tax until it\u2019s due next year.\nIt\u2019s still uncertain what the final legislation will contain and whether it will be passed and signed into law this year. We can help you make the best decision based on tax law change developments and your specific situation.",

        "raw_content": "Governor McAuliffe unveiled his budget-plan at a meeting of the General Assembly's joint money committees on Friday. The governor's proposal addresses salary compression issues and career development funding for deputies and sheriff's office staff while providing a 1.5% bonus in 2017.\nMcAuliffe included the 1.5 percent bonus in a proposed compensation package totaling $130.6 million, but many feel it doesn\u2019t address the serious pay inequities that the canceled 3 percent raise was aimed at narrowing.\nThe bonus, which would be paid next December, is based on projected one-time savings from a proposed tax amnesty program and changes to the state\u2019s accelerated sales tax policy, which requires businesses of a certain size to submit most of their June tax payments by the end of that month. Usually, businesses pay the tax in the following month. Because the fiscal year ends in June, the early payment basically shifts money from the following fiscal year into the prior one.\nMcAuliffe also called for online businesses with warehouses or fulfillment centers in Virginia to pay state sales tax. He has routinely chastised Congress for failing to enact a nationwide Internet sales tax, and he said his proposal could generate $21\u2009million a year in state and local revenue beginning in fiscal 2018.\nThe spending plan which covers the second year of the 2016-2018 biennial budget, mostly uses targeted cuts and revenue adjustments to close a funding gap that has shrunk as the state\u2019s economy has strengthened in recent weeks.\nThe shortfall for fiscal 2016, which ended in June, and the projected shortfalls for 2017 and 2018 now total a combined $1.2\u2009billion, down from $1.5\u2009billion. The improvement is largely due to increases in payroll tax revenue as the state\u2019s employment picture gets stronger.\nThose and other revenue measures, including tapping the state\u2019s rainy-day fund, carve the three-year budget shortfall to $785\u2009million. The governor proposes closing that gap by enacting more than $800\u2009million in spending cuts.\nNo cuts are proposed for K-12 education and various public safety agencies were already exempted from cuts. In addition, state colleges and universities will face smaller cuts than expected for 2018, 5\u2009percent instead of 7.5\u2009percent.\nHe announced earlier this week that his proposal would also call for $31.7\u2009million in new spending to improve state mental-health services and treat substance-abuse issues.\nMcAuliffe also is requesting $1\u2009million to upgrade Virginia\u2019s voter registration and election management system and $570,000 to continue a program for those serving in the military to get access to secure absentee ballots online.\nUnlike in the last three years, the plan he submitted to the General Assembly\u2019s finance committees is not built around expanding Medicaid. Language in his budget would give the governor authority to use hundreds of millions in federal Medicaid expansion dollars if the Affordable Care Act still exists a year from now.\nThe District of Columbia and 31 states have adopted the federal Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act, which provides health-insurance coverage to low-income adults. Because federal money covers the cost, McAuliffe said he could have included $231\u2009million in savings in the budget if Virginia participated. Even though the federal government is paying its full cost now, the burden will gradually shift to states and become a drag on state finances.\nMembers of the General Assembly will get more detailed briefings on the budget before convening Jan. 11.",

(NYSE: PX), announces the start-up of its state-of-the-art, 135 million standard cubic feet per day (scfd) hydrogen plant serving the Valero refinery Port Arthur, Texas and other customers.\nThis project represents a significant investment in hydrogen supply for Praxair's customers along the Gulf Coast\nThe new plant houses the largest Steam Methane Reformer (SMR) Praxair has built to date to supply hydrogen and up to 450,000 pounds per hour of steam to Valero's new 57,000 barrels-per-day hydrocracker. Hydrocrackers are used to break down hydrocarbon molecules in heavier crude oil to produce premium transportation fuels, such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels, that burn cleaner and are in strong demand globally. The process produces 1.2 barrels of high-value, low-sulfur products for each barrel of high-sulfur feedstock.\nThe new Port Arthur SMR is connected to Praxair's existing 750 million scfd Gulf Coast pipeline network. The network includes a unique 2.5 billion scf high-purity hydrogen storage cavern that provides additional supply reliability for Praxair customers along the pipeline. The U.S. Gulf Coast is the largest oil refining and petrochemical producing region in the world.\nThis project represents a significant investment in hydrogen supply for Praxair's customers along the Gulf Coast, said Mike Jordan, vice president, U.S. Hydrogen. And with the completion of a similar plant with pipeline expansion in Louisiana this year, we will enhance competitive supply options for the lower Mississippi River corridor as well.\nPraxair operates more than 50 hydrogen production facilities and seven hydrogen pipeline systems globally. Refinery customers worldwide benefit from Praxair's complete portfolio of large-volume industrial gases, cylinder gases and specialized refinery technologies and services.\nPraxair, Inc. is the largest industrial gases company in North and South America, and one of the largest worldwide, with 2012 sales of $11 billion. The company produces, sells and distributes atmospheric, process and specialty gases, and high-performance surface coatings. Praxair products, services and technologies are making our planet more productive by bringing efficiency and environmental benefits to a wide variety of industries, including aerospace, chemicals, food and beverage, electronics, energy, healthcare, manufacturing, metals and others.

        "title": "5 Ways Successful Entrepreneurs Stay Motivated",
        "raw_content": "5 Ways Successful Entrepreneurs Stay Motivated\nby Kristy Dickerson\nThe bravest souls quit their jobs to pursue a dream of turning their passion into profit. Considering the time it takes to achieve success, passion can easily fizzle. There is a point of no return when it is too late to stop because so much has been invested.\nWe are not going to give up on a dream just because we are feeling tired; we have to find a way to bring back the energy and commitment we originally had for this endeavor.\nHere are five simple ways entrepreneurs can stay motivated, even when we feel overburdened or tired of being the leader.\nDevelop a Routine (and release dopamine)\n\u201c\u2026according to a 2009 study, the time it takes to form a habit really isn\u2019t that clear-cut. Researchers from University College London examined the new habits of 96 people over the space of 12 weeks, and found that the average time it takes for a new habit to stick is actually 66 days; furthermore, individual times varied from 18 to a whopping 254 days.\u201d\nIf you are running a business and \u201cin the zone\u201d 24/7, it becomes even more difficult. There is a feeling of fulfillment by being productive which can be a constant source of energy and remove any possibility of boredom. With a feeling of fulfillment, a necessity to \u201cchange habits\u201d is not a consideration, but should be.\nThe trick here is consistency. Write a schedule and stick with it. Leave enough room for unexpected changes, and you will soon develop a routine.\nIt is only difficult at first, especially if creating and sticking to a schedule is new. Stay motivated by actively seeking out your goals. Every time we achieve a goal, no matter how small, dopamine is released. By keeping a small to-do list, you will release dopamine each time you check something off. You will also get more stuff done!\nSet time for Yourself\nThe thing that kills motivation most quickly is the lack of rewards in your personal system. When you create a calendar and develop a routine, incorporate a few hours \u2013 or minutes for relaxation. Within the 24 hours in a day, you cannot be productive for all of them. Instead of procrastinating every few hours, set a dedicated time for doing what you love. (Doing what you love = relaxation)\nOne of the perks of being a business owner is having a little more control of your schedule. You are reaching for your dreams; don\u2019t neglect your personal happiness occasionally now. Enjoy the journey, because it will be a long ride.\nThis will change as we begin to take humanity to Mars and other planets. A day on Mars offers an additional 39 minutes and 35 seconds to get things done.\nGather Energy from Your Environment\nIf rest and relaxation isn\u2019t working for you, seek inspiration elsewhere and will depend on what energizes you. Making the most of your \u2018rest moments\u2019 may be as simple as spending more time with family, going on a date with your partner or hanging with your friends.\nThere are many strange and crazy hobbies in the world that may be to your liking.\nFor instance, Sandy Lerner of Cisco Systems goes all out when it comes to jousting. It is one of her favorite hobbies, and she owns everything from the lances to the period costumes.\nJames Bond (Daniel Craig) became so addicted to the Halo franchise that it caused a rift between him and now ex-girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell. (Image source: Wikimedia Commons)\nSometimes you have to look outside for motivation, and the world is full of great things. Seek them out. You will find yourself to be more motivated when you get back to running your business.\nStaying in \u201cthe zone\u201d with the \u201cgo-switch\u201d always on can kill motivation. In this situation, try challenging yourself whenever you can. Change up the process, the timetable, the expectation. Do you have a deadline set for next week? Try finishing it today, just to mix things up.\n\u201cGood enough today is not good enough tomorrow\u201d is one of the five essentials to business success.\nEvaluate your strengths, skills, and talents to leverage have the best opportunities. Reward yourself for a job well done. It may be a good time for an Almond Roca treat.\nTurn off the lights and go to bed. Often, we don\u2019t allow ourselves to rest, just for the sake of \u2018getting more done\u2019 aka \u2018productivity.\u2019 Never underestimate the value of a good night\u2019s sleep, especially since it has an impact on motivation.\n\u201cFirst and foremost, total SD impairs attention and working memory, but it also affects other functions, such as long-term memory and decision-making. Partial SD is found to influence attention, especially vigilance. Studies on its effects on more demanding cognitive functions are lacking.\u201d \u2013 Source: US National Library of Medicine\nSometimes we lack energy and motivation simply because we didn\u2019t sleep.\nIn the end, a big part of motivation can be summed up with \u201ceffort.\u201d The cure for low motivation may be will power, determination, perseverance and sticking with doing things even when we don\u2019t feel like it. Little successes can be a spark to bigger successes.\nKristy Dickerson, keynote speaker, businesswoman, and active CEO and co-founder of STARTplanner, has devoted her life to providing hope for individuals who are looking to achieve balance, success, and happiness within their own lives. Dickerson has been sought after for keynote speaking due to her relatable story, no excuses tone, valuable advice, and upbeat personality that she entrenches in all aspects of her brands.\nShe believes and preaches that individuals have the ability to do anything they want. Through business coaching, workshops, and speaking she has shown individuals how to make change happen in their life and small business.\nTopics: Personal Development Productivity Motivation Entrepreneurship",

Therefore, an employee may work a normal 9-to-5 job as a primary source of income but work nights at a different job in order to earn extra money. Employees who work for private businesses may be subject to any policies the company has in place regarding moonlighting. Certain organizations may not want employees to work additional jobs while others will not care. Employees for public organizations may need to check with any agency regulations or federal laws concerning having two jobs. One example would be the fact that employees of federal government agencies are prohibited from receiving two sources of income that both come from the federal government.",

        "raw_content": "Is Our Speech Really Free?\nKirstie Jones November 19, 2012 Stuff\nWe\u2019ve come a long way over the years in allowing the reign of free speech. From the Victorian era where children were to be seen and not heard, to children now taking to social media to air their views. With the rise of social media, a platform has been created where people can vent openly and have a help in shaping the political and social landscape, without being directly involved within the media.\nSocial media has given a generation the freedom to say what we want about who we want to a mass audience with no consequences \u2013 until now! However are the lines really clear about what you can and can\u2019t say on Twitter and Facebook? Over the past few months we have seen \u201ctrolls\u201d go to court over their abusive comments but what constitutes someone going to prison? Has social media redefined our views on what\u2019s acceptable in society and should Twitter and Facebook even play a role in law and prosecution?\nIn more traditional media, individual\u2019s and companies are protected by slander and defamation laws. In terms of social media, there is a Malicious Falsehood Law (false statements made to cause damage to a person\u2019s business reputation.) However in order to make a complaint you must be able to prove that the person who published a statement did so knowing it was false and that as a result financial loss has occurred.\nYet when someone is personally attacked, can they actually do anything about it? In the current case with the missing April Jones, a 17 year old made vile comments about her which sent the police looking for him. Yet is saying hurtful comments really enough to be imprisoned? It may be hurtful but it\u2019s not much different to school playground mentality when someone tells a teacher about a nasty remark.\nHowever the courts are becoming more clear on individual cases. The law gives victims of sexual offences and other cases anonymity and those who reveal the victims on social media have in fact broken the law. The concern with social media is that in can be a damaging tool but there aren\u2019t clear defined lines.

        "raw_content": "La Russa compiles initial list of GM candidates\nD-backs seem committed to strengthening advanced metrics department\nPHOENIX -- While the D-backs continue their road trip Tuesday in San Francisco, chief baseball officer Tony La Russa will be focused on finding a new general manager.\nLa Russa's work began in earnest Saturday, one day after the team announced that Kevin Towers was offered a position in the baseball operations department but would not be its GM next season.\nThough he has earned a reputation for not having embraced advanced metrics, La Russa has said that he does, in fact, believe in using them, but that their role should not seep into a manager's in-game decisions.\nHaving put together a Hall of Fame career as a manager, La Russa understands the value of empowering a manager to trust what his eyes and gut tell him during a game. He also believes that if a front office dictates in-game moves, a manager will lose the respect of the clubhouse. And in this day and age, a manager having the respect of his players is more important than ever, La Russa believes.\nRegardless of who ends up with the GM job, the D-backs seem committed to strengthening their advanced metrics department.\nLa Russa has compiled an initial list of candidates, all of whom he will talk to, and when he has narrowed that down to two or three people, he will have team president and CEO Derrick Hall and possibly others in the club's hierarchy sit down with that group for a second round of interviews.\nHere is a look at the nine confirmed candidates that were on La Russa's initial list. As with any search, names could be added as the process goes along.\nBaird was the Royals' general manager from 2000-06, and after his dismissal there, he joined the Red Sox's front office as an assistant general manager. His current title is vice president of player personnel, and he is a respected talent evaluator.\nBeinfest was the Marlins' GM from 2002-13, finishing his tenure with the club as president of baseball operations. The Marlins won the 2003 World Series under his direction, and he was interviewed by the Padres before they hired A.J. Preller last month. The D-backs are believed to have spoken with Beinfest in May before deciding to hire La Russa.\nEppler is the assistant GM of the Yankees, and he has a background in scouting and is said to also embrace analytics. The 38-year-old was the runner-up in San Diego's search for a GM last month and also finished second to Jerry Dipoto for the Angels' GM job in the fall of 2011.\nGary LaRocque\nLaRocque, who is the Cardinals' director of player development, interviewed with La Russa on Saturday. The pair worked together in St. Louis, with LaRocque joining the organization in 2008 after spending 10 years in the front office for the Mets.\nMontgomery was named the D-backs' scouting director in October 2010. A former big league player, Montgomery first worked in the Brewers' organization before coming to Arizona. La Russa was extremely impressed by what he saw when he watched the way Montgomery conducted the D-backs' First-Year Player Draft this year.\nMorris is the Angels' director of pro scouting, and he came highly recommended to La Russa. A longtime big leaguer, Morris earned his MBA from Stanford upon his retirement and then got back into baseball as a scout. He is scouting in Japan right now, but La Russa plans to speak with him when he returns.\nPurpura was the Astros' general manager from 2005-07, and he has an extensive administrative background in the game. The Astros went to the World Series in 2005 before losing to the White Sox.\nStewart has the most varied background of any of the candidates and the closest relationship with La Russa. The right-hander won many a big game for La Russa in Oakland, and he has also been an assistant GM and pitching coach. Stewart is currently a player agent representing, among others, the Dodgers' Matt Kemp.\nDeJon Watson\nWatson is the assistant GM in charge of player development for the Dodgers. He has been with them for seven years, five in his current role. Watson has interviewed for GM jobs in the past, most notably with the D-backs when they decided to hire Towers.",

        "raw_content": "Help Your CPA Help You\nIn theory, CPAs\u2019 jobs are simple: They must use their knowledge to help you maintain and improve your economic and tax health.\nAny CPA\u2019s ability to help you is more a matter of experience than knowledge. However, no matter how knowledgeable or experienced, none of them know it all. Like it or not, specific strategies, methods or concepts that can help clients sometimes fall through the cracks unnoticed. This column is about a simple strategy that few CPAs (or lawyers or other professionals) know exists. This strategy can provide clients and their families with a huge, tax-free increase in wealth.\nI have helped implement this strategy hundreds of times. What guides me? Not much knowledge, but my years of experience. You see, in this case, my job is to recognize the opportunity and then call in an expert who can implement the strategy with ease. The client is always delighted.\nLet\u2019s introduce the strategy by starting with some basic facts, based on my experience. First, 70 percent of life insurance policies are outdated. This means that these policies are 10 years old or older and are simply not capable of performing like the new policies available in the current marketplace.\nHere\u2019s what makes the strategy a financial bonanza: 90 percent of clients who replace their old policy with a new one wind up with a significantly increased death benefit. Also, there is no increase in out-of-pocket cash for premiums. Every dollar of those death benefits are tax-free. No income tax. No estate tax.\nAha! Taxes\u2014legally avoiding them\u2014are in the CPA\u2019s realm of expertise. But life insurance? Forget it. Almost every CPA is like a fish out of water when it comes to life insurance. Here\u2019s the problem: Neither the client nor the CPA knows that those old life insurance policies are a treasure trove of opportunity to increase the wealth of the client\u2019s family.\nThe best way to see how the strategy works is to look at some real-life examples. The following three examples show the wealth-creating power of this opportunity.\n\u2022 Example 1: Joe (age 82) and his wife, Mary, (84) had a 45-year-old policy on Joe with a death benefit of $396,000 and a cash surrender value (CSV) of $355,000. Joe stopped paying premiums many years ago. My insurance consultant used the $355,000 CSV to purchase a second-to-die policy (on Joe and Mary) with a $706,000 death benefit. That\u2019s a 78-percent increase over the original $396,000 death benefit. Also, there was no out-of-pocket cost to Joe.\n\u2022 Example 2: Larry (age 58 and single) had a 15-year-old policy on his life, which included a death benefit of $788,631 and a CSV of $239,027. Larry paid a $9,000 premium annually. My insurance guru traded in the old policy (tax-free under the Internal Revenue Code) for a new policy with a $1,702,127 death benefit (a 116-percent increase). The $9,000 annual premium continued.\n\u2022 Example 3: Mildred, a 71-year-old widow, owned a 26-year-old policy, which included a $10 million death benefit and a $2,880,000 CSV. Mildred\u2019s premium was $68,000 per year, but because the CSV was large enough to self-carry the policy, her intent was to pay no more out-of-pocket premiums (instead borrowing against the CSV). My insurance consultant traded Mildred\u2019s old policy (tax-free) for a new one with a $12,670,000 death benefit guaranteed and no further premium payments by Mildred.\nOkay, so you are wondering if you can join the tax-free, wealth-building fun like Joe, Larry and Mildred. Actually, it\u2019s easy to join. Just meet the following three requirements:\n1. Are you 48 years old or older?\n2. Do you have a policy that\u2019s about 10 years old or older with a CSV of $200,000 or more?\n3. Are you healthy for your age? (If you are married, is at least one person healthy?)\nIf you answered all questions \u201cyes,\u201d you should follow through with this strategy to determine how much additional tax-free wealth can be created for your family.\nMy guess is that there are millions of hidden policies like those in the three examples above, in which the insured will go to heaven and the insurance company will be enriched unjustly instead of the insured\u2019s family enjoying those additional death-benefit dollars. So how do we get those millions of policies looked at and the strategy implemented?\nI have a simple plan to convert those hidden policies to their largest dollar potential: Get this article to your CPA (in person or via fax, email or snail mail).\nThis paragraph and the next is for your CPA: Every year when you do your client\u2019s tax return or year-end business audit, ask the three questions above to determine whether your client meets the requirements. If so, bingo! Call your favorite knowledgeable and experienced insurance consultant to review your client\u2019s policy/policies.\nAlso, when doing a year-end business audit, any insurance carried to fund a buy/sell agreement, keyman insurance or other life insurance (owned or paid for by the company) should also be put through the above three-question routine.",

        "title": "Could GDPR scupper NHS plans for AI? | MobiHealthNews",
        "raw_content": "The race to see artificial intelligence \u2018save\u2019 the NHS needs to overcome the hurdle of GDPR. BJ-HC looks at the challenges ahead.\nBy Rob Benson\nWith its potential to use data to make healthcare more efficient and effective, some say that artificial intelligence could save a NHS faced with rising demand, workforce shortages, and a funding crisis.\nHowever, the possibilities for AI come at a time of increased scrutiny on the use of personal data. The EU\u2019s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is forcing organisations to consider how they collect, store and process an individual\u2019s data.\nGDPR raises several questions on how to use personal data with AI technology, which the NHS needs to address if it is to make the most of the opportunity.\nFor example, patients may expect to be asked for consent for their data to be used as part of an AI algorithm. This may not be the best way of complying with GDPR.\n\u201cWhile you may need consent from somebody to take part, and for ethical reasons you may still get that, that may not be the basis under which you process data,\u201d explains Nicola Perrin, lead for Understanding Patient Data.\n\u201cSo you may have a two track approach where you have consent for ethical reasons, but then the legal basis for processing data is actually different and would be more likely to be a public interest test, which gets quite complicated.\u201d\nGDPR gives the public clear rights on how their data is used, and working with patients will be crucial. We need to \u2018take the public with us\u2019 in the development of AI, as National Data Guardian Fiona Caldicott recently told the Lords Committee on the topic.\n\u201cDo not forget that this is my data, my body, my data so it starts with me giving permission,\u201d says \u2018digital patient\u2019 Michael Seres.\nBeing open and compliant\nSeres\u2019 own company 11Health uses AI and algorithms to enable patients and healthcare professionals to make faster decisions. Under GDPR, patients have a right to explanation around such decisions.\nThis could be a real challenge, as some say opening the black box of algorithmic decision-making faces major legal and technical barriers. Seres is pragmatic.\n\u201cIn my view it is not about sharing a ton of algorithms, but really about sharing the process and the mechanics of how the machine makes decisions. I think it is perfectly natural for patients to want to know how any decision is made. I see AI as no different. As long as decisions are explained and processes open, what is the issue?\u201d\nTransparency is one thing, but who will monitor compliance? The Lords noted that existing regulators, such as the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO), are best placed. But there several regulators could be involved.\n\u201cIt is unclear which regulator will set the lead,\u201d says Eleonora Harwich, co-author of Reform\u2019s Thinking on its own: AI in the NHS report. \u201cCurrently, for example, the MHRA does not require an explanation on medtech devices it regulates. It requires that they are within a certain amount of accuracy. This is different under GDPR. But the MHRA does not regulate data.\u201d\nMore inclusive approaches to information governance may be required under GDPR. This is what happened with Royal Free and Deepmind, when 1.6m patient records were shared to help find a better way to identify acute kidney injury. Deepmind is pro-actively engaging with patients, the NHS and the public to discuss how it and other companies could better address data sharing issues.\n\u201cClearly mistakes were made in that case,\u201d says Perrin. \u201cBut it\u2019s been a wake up call for everyone to make sure they get the governance arrangements right in future.\u201d\nWorking with the public will be critical. \u201cI think it is time for the NHS to work directly with patients on this issue\u201d says Seres. \u201cTo not deliver directives to us, but to create them with us.\u201d\nThe Lords recommendation that the NHS outline data sharing plans for AI by the end of the year should support this, and introduce a much-needed consistent approach.\nMultiple conversations are happening across the NHS about how it could exploit AI. These need to be informed by agreeing on the purposes for which we want to use AI.\nWhat do we want to achieve with AI in the NHS?\nWe need to come together as a health system, join disparate conversations that are happening, and work out what we want to achieve. Do we want voice algorithms to help with patient FAQs for example? Or are we looking at diagnostics, workforce, logistics?\u201d says Dominic Cushnan, digital information manager and AI lead at NHS Horizons.\n\u201cThis can then inform other areas, such as how to involve patients, engage the market, and how we process the data. But we shouldn\u2019t take on too much; we can\u2019t solve everything. But we need to have that conversation.\u201d\nIt\u2019s called starting with the end in mind. AI may save the NHS, but as with all technology, its success depends on having the people behind it, and the right processes in place. Through compliance and conversation, GDPR can enable a vision for AI that will benefit generations to come \u2013 and potentially save the NHS.\nBJHC, AI, innovation, privacy",

Courtesy of Maine Farmland Trust\nA group of Somali Bantu refugees have started a cooperative farm in Maine, whole continents away from where they were born. They\u2019ve traveled treacherous terrain and faced down threats that could have taken their lives. Thousands of miles from Somalia, on 30 acres in Maine\u2019s second-largest city, they\u2019ve begun to feel like they\u2019ve come home.\nNew Roots Cooperative Farm, though just recently started by four new Americans, is already a success story. Combine the complexities of farming with the uncertainty of navigating a system that is unfamiliar \u2014 and, at times, unfriendly \u2014 to newcomers and you\u2019ll understand just a fraction of how far New Roots has already come. They\u2019re inspired to help one another and the community, too.\n\u201cOur aim is not only to grow food and run a business ourselves but to help our community and teach them about how to run a business,\u201d says New Roots farmer Batula Ismail.\nNew Roots is a cooperative \u2014 the four co-owners work together to share land, markets, infrastructure, and resources \u2014 and they are demonstrating for other immigrant farmers that their co-op model is best for meeting their needs and building community.\nThe group used to farm before being forced from their homes during Somalia\u2019s tumultuous civil war period.\n\u201cThere was no control,\u201d one of the co-op organizers, Hussein Muktar, told the Portland Press Herald recently. \u201cPeople come to your house and kill you or beat you and take whatever you have,\u201d he said. \u201cYou have no power.\u201d\nAfter arriving in Maine, they got back to farming at Cultivating Community\u2019s New American Sustainable Agriculture Project at Packard-Littlefield Farm in Lisbon, Maine. The program empowers New Americans to launch independent farm businesses, to adopt new leadership roles in the community, and to attain increased economic independence for themselves and their families.\nNow, with a decade of experience at Packard-Littlefield backing them up, the group is ready to put their education to the test. When Gendron Farm, a dairy farm in Lewiston was divided into several parcels in 2015, New Roots worked with Cooperative Development Institute, Maine Farmland Trust, Land for Good, Cultivating Community, and many others to preserve 30 acres as a working farm.\nIn August, 2016, the farmers celebrated with a groundbreaking ceremony for their farm with food, music, speakers, and prayers for the land. More than 100 people turned out to support the farm and the New American community in Lewiston, a heartwarming affirmation that New Roots is leading the way for immigrant farmers in the Northeast.\nFarmer Mohamed Abukar said, \u201cWe are a new generation of farmers, as New Americans, and we want to bring our farming to a new level. We want to develop support from other organizations and people to open the farm in 2017 and provide fresh chemical free vegetables to schools, hospitals, restaurants, and people around the state.\u201d\nNew Roots is hosting an online barnraiser to help them set solid roots on their new land and create greater economic opportunity for New Americans. Learn more about their plans here.\nThe Cooperative Development Institute was founded in 1994 with the explicit mission to foster an inter-dependent dense network of enterprises and institutions that allow us to meet our needs through principled democratic ownership, and that care for community, combat injustice and inequity, and promote conscious self-governance.

        "raw_content": "Interview with Bill Wasik: Senior Editor of Harper\u2019s and Creator of Flash Mobs\nMother Jones: What was the evolution of the flash mob?\nBill Wasik: Before there was anything called flash mobs, there were the protests in the Philippines where the participants used text messaging to coordinate. That preceded flash mobs. There are some semantic issues with what exactly flash mobs are. The way that I conceived of them, they were just 10 minutes or less and they were completely absurd. When people ask me \u201cWhat do you think the political potential of flash mobs to be?\u201d I say, \u201cI don\u2019t really think that there is one.\u201d That said, using cell phones to coordinate protests has allowed for decentralization, for people to organize.\nWhenever I hear talk about using flash mobs for political purposes, my first thought is that that person doesn\u2019t really know what they\u2019re talking about. The people who understand the technology and the generation that they\u2019re talking about know that flash mobs were a little absurdist blip in a whole universe of social networking technologies or phenomena that do have the power to be very revolutionary. You could use flash mob as a metaphor for some of the ways in which the netroots will leverage the power of all of this collaborative energy and all of these people in remote locations and have them come together on a single project. A flash mob is an interesting metaphor and insofar as it\u2019s being used as a metaphor I have no problem with that.\nMJ: What do you think about the idea that technology is changing the way we do politics?\nBW: A lot of techno-utopian types \u2014the kind of people who would crow about Politics 2.0-type stuff \u2014they have a hammer, but they don\u2019t really know what their nail is. To me, the innovation of the netroots really has nothing to do with the Internet and has everything to do with the way they\u2019re forging an aggressive vision of liberal politics that is rightly confrontational on the war and on economic issues. I think that, yeah, there\u2019s a hammer and it\u2019s called social networking. It\u2019s the way in which the Internet allows people to come together in a virtual way. But it\u2019s a platform that anybody can use, and the question is, what are we going to use it for? That brings us right back to Politics 1.0. My feeling about a lot of this stuff is, yeah, it\u2019s cool, but it\u2019s a sideshow. It\u2019s not the main show.\nMore Interviews << >> Politics 2.0 Index",

This is the first answer of Communitarian institutions to the complaint of the Free Trieste Movement as for the illegality of European elections that took place in Zone A of the Free Territory of Trieste.\nThis complaint had been presented by me, as President of the Movement, by mailing threehundred declarations of illegitimacy of European Elections presented by the citizens to the polling stations, sending these not only to the European Commission, but to the President of the European Parliament as well.\nAnnexed to this complaint, there was judgment No. 530/13 of the Regional Administrative Court \u2013 Tribunale Amministrativo Regionale (T.A.R.) of Friuli Venezia Giulia as further evidence of the severe, repressive violations committed by Italian authorities against the citizens of Trieste that claim their rights as established with the Treaty of Peace of Paris of 1947.\nFor instance, Italian administrative judges reject the appeal, declaring \u201csubversive\u201d the appellant (myself) for presenting it. According to the judges, with this appeal, sustaineded ad adjuvandum by 56 more citizens, the unity of the Republic of Italy was threatened and, due to this, appellant Roberto Giurastante should be considered prosecutable for the crimes of threaten to State unity.\nIn the answer of the President of the European Parliament Schulz are reflected all the uncertainties of a more and more uncertain European Unions. In facts, since it is impossible demonstrating Italian sovereignty over Zone A of the Free Territory of Trieste the President of the European Parliament prefers \u201cnot to intervene on substance\u201d. We are still awaiting the answer of the European Commission.\nIn the meantime, Judgment No. 530/13 of the T.A.R., already impugned before the European Court of Human Rights is about to be brought to international level as one of the indictments of the State of Italy for the severe violations of the Treaty of Peace determined with said act.

In virtue of this principle, among others, the European Union respects the constitutional structures and territorial integrity of its Member States, as established with Article 4(2) of the Treaty on European Union \u201cThe Union shall respect the equality of Member States before the Treaties as well as their national identities, inherent in their fundamental structure political and constitutional, inclusive of regional and local self-government.

        "title": "Rule protects public housing residents from secondhand smoke - News - MPNnow - Canandaigua, NY",
        "raw_content": "Rule protects public housing residents from secondhand smoke\nA new smoke-free housing rule from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development protects more than 200,000 families residing in public housing throughout the state from secondhand smoke.\nRepresentatives from the American Lung Association said the new rule recognizes the health threat posed by secondhand smoke, as well as its ability to linger in rooms and travel between homes in multiunit housing. There is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke.\n\u201cEveryone deserves the opportunity to lead a healthy life, and ensuring homes are free from the risks of secondhand smoke is a critical step for the health of residents,\u201d said Jeff Seyler, ALA chief division officer. \u201cThis is especially true for children and those who are more vulnerable to the impact of secondhand smoke, such as those living with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.\u201d\nHUD announced a rule in 2016 that required all federally owned public housing to become smoke-free by July 2018. This rule will protect 2 million Americans nationwide from exposure to secondhand smoke in their homes, including 690,000 children.\nALA advocated for the passage of the rule, as well as support for the implementation of smoke-free housing policies in local public housing authorities. The Tobacco Action Coalition of the Fingers Lakes, an ALA program, received numerous calls over the years from tenants, families, visitors and staff members regarding secondhand smoke exposure in multiunit housing dwellings.\nAs of July 2018, the federal rule prohibits the use of lit tobacco products and hookahs inside all indoor areas and 25 feet from all federally funded public housing authority buildings. The state has over 80 federally funded public housing authorities that are home to more than 200,000 households.\nThe state has additional public housing authorities that do not receive federal funding, and are therefore not required to comply with the new federal rule. Several housing authorities voluntarily implemented smoke-free policies in one or more of their buildings to create a healthier environment for tenants and staff, decrease costs involved in turning over apartments, increase marketability to prospective tenants and reduce the risk of unintentional fire emergencies and death.\nNewark Housing Authority and Geneva Housing Authority each implemented the policy before HUD\u2019s ruling. Marie Wasman, NHA director, worked with her staff and board of directors to implement a smoke-free policy in October 2016.\n\u201cWe are proud of what we have done, not only for our tenants but for our staff as well,\u201d Wasman said.\nNewark Rose Garden Apartments will implement a smoke-free policy in September, after spending several months preparing tenants for the transition. TACFL partnered with Wayne County Public Health to hold a tenant meeting in the beginning stages of the process, providing information, listening to tenants\u2019 concerns and answering questions. Tenants interested in quitting smoking received free cessation support with Ryan Mulhern, WCPH tobacco cessation specialist.\n\u201cWayne County\u2019s current smoking rate is 24.5 percent, compared to the state average of 14.2 percent,\u201d Mulhern said. \u201cMost current smokers want to quit. Even though our rate is higher than the state average, we certainly have resources to help someone quit tobacco. Many of them are entirely free like our program at WCPH. I have seen many successes in the seven-plus years I have been doing this, so if someone has been thinking of quitting and needs a little bit of help, or just someone to talk to, I am always so happy to be there for them as a resource.\u201d\n\u201cWe celebrate this important step to protect the health of residents in New York state,\u201d said Kristina Wieneke, ALA director of advocacy. \u201cWe are eager to see the policy in full effect, and we hope that this rule will inspire more of New York\u2019s multiunit residential buildings, college campuses and shared spaces to go smoke-free as well.\u201d\nCall 585-666-1398 or visit bit.ly/2pTUdB7 for information.",

        "raw_content": "A New Year, a New Chance to Review Your Credit\nMany people change batteries in smoke alarms when the clocks move forward or back. Perhaps you might try the New Year\u2019s holiday to spark a new tradition, checking your credit report. The process is free, simple and could be an easy way for you to accomplish an easily achievable New Year\u2019s resolution.\nIf you have ever had a credit card or a loan, or especially if you have ever been turned down for one, then you probably know the impact a credit report can have on your finances. Each creditor provides information about your credit standing, whether you have any late payments and how delinquent they were, and whether you have had any accounts closed by you or your creditor. There might also be information from collectors if you have ever had a utility, bank or other kind of account go to collections.\nFederal law allows you to get one free report from each of the three major credit reporting agencies each year. The first place to start is www.annualcreditreport.com, the federally authorized site where, within minutes, you can see reports from all three agencies. Those reports will not include your credit score, the number some creditors use to determine whether you are a good credit risk. Issues that affect your score include how well you make payments, how much debt you have compared to the total credit line and how many accounts you have. Credit scores are available for a small fee.\nWhen you see your report you should check for errors in the spelling of your name and other mistakes you notice, such as how your account is shown. Report any errors in writing to the credit agencies.\nAnother important thing to look for is evidence of fraud. If you question the validity of information you find, you will first want to look closer at your accounts, either from the paper statements you have received from your creditors or online. If you find accounts you did not authorize, it\u2019s possible someone has stolen your identity and is using it to buy goods with your credit. This can become a huge problem, because people stealing identities don\u2019t concern themselves with making payments, potentially sending your credit into a tailspin. If you notice fraud, complete the Federal Trade Commission\u2019s Identity Theft Victim\u2019s Complaint and Affidavit.\nOnce you have completed all your work on this year\u2019s credit report, keep it on file to have it handy throughout the year in case there is an issue. Then, next year when you get a new report you can compare your reports year to year. Checking the report annually also makes it more likely you will have an accurate credit history the next time you apply for a loan.\nIf you have questions about items on your credit report or about the process itself, contact a credit counselor to ask for assistance. A counselor will be able to address many of your concerns, help you navigate the site and give you the information you need to feel knowledgeable about your report.",

        "raw_content": "The Truth About Closing a Credit Card?\nMany people are under the misconception that closing a credit card will damage their credit score. While this may be true in some circumstances, there are many instances in which it will not hurt you. Below are the important factors to consider when deciding whether to close a credit card account.\nDo you still owe a balance on the credit card? If you do, this is probably NOT the time to close the card. By electing to close a card before it is paid off, you effectively lower your available credit limit-to-credit balance ratio (utilization ratio). To have a good credit limit ratio, you need to keep card balances at 30% or less of your available credit limit. When you close a card with a balance on it, you effectively lower the credit limit to the level of the current balance.\nOpen card \u2013 Credit limit is $1,000; current balance owed is $300. Ratio = 30%\nClosed card \u2013 Credit limit is $300; current balance owed is $300. Ratio = 100%\nThat 100% is very hard on your credit score.\nIt is important to note, that the utilization rate does not necessarily look at one card at a time. If you have multiple credit cards, it will consider the debt you carry on all cards compared to the available credit limit on all cards.\nCard #1 \u2013 Credit limit is $1,000; current balance is $800. Ratio = 80%\nOverall utilization rate: credit limit $2,000; current balance is $1,000 Ratio = 50%\nIf I close the card, it will come off my credit report?\nAnother misconception about closing cards is that the card will be removed from the credit report after seven years. The truth is that positive credit history can remain on your credit report forever; even if you close the account. The only items required to come off a report in seven years are negative entries (10 years for some items like bankruptcy and judgments). It is true that items that have not been reported in the last 24 months may not be as heavily weighted in your credit score; however they will still be included.\nNeed your score any time soon?\nFinally, think about how you may be using your credit in the next six-to-12 months. If you are thinking about purchasing a home or a car, you may do better to wait to make changes to your credit until after you have completed the purchase. It is certainly not a time to be opening new credit accounts or incurring additional debt on existing accounts. At that point hopefully you are focusing on paying down any credit card debt you may already have.\nBottom line, if you are considering closing your credit card accounts, make sure the account is paid-in-full first. Also, understand that the account will remain on your credit report (if positive), which is a GOOD thing!\nIf you have questions about how to manage your debts and credit cards, call us! 1-888-864-8659.",

        "title": "Use and Care of Home Humidifiers",
        "raw_content": "Use and Care of Humidifiers\nHumidifiers are commonly used in homes to relieve the physical discomforts of dry nose, throat, lips, and skin. The moisture they add to dry air also helps alleviate common nuisances brought on by winter heating, such as static electricity, peeling wallpaper, and cracks in paint and furniture. However, excess moisture can encourage the growth of biological organisms in the home. These organisms include dust mites, which are microscopic animals that produce materials causing allergic reactions to household dust, and molds.\nRecent studies by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) have shown that ultrasonic and impeller (or \"cool mist\") humidifiers can disperse materials, such as microorganisms and minerals, from their water tanks into indoor air. At present, only limited information is available on the growth of microorganisms and the dispersal of microorganisms and minerals by home humidifiers. Proper care and cleaning of ultrasonic and impeller humidifiers are important for reducing potential exposures to microorganisms, such as bacteria and molds. Microorganisms often grow in humidifiers which are equipped with tanks containing standing water. Breathing mist containing these pollutants has been implicated as causing a certain type of inflammation of the lungs.\nThe Federal government has not concluded that the dispersal of minerals by home humidifiers poses a serious health risk. Nevertheless, using water with lower mineral content will reduce exposures to these materials.\nThe young, the elderly, and those people with lung diseases or respiratory allergies may be particularly susceptible to certain types of airborne pollutants. However, if you follow the recommendations for the use and care of home humidifiers provided in this fact sheet, the potential for dispersal of microorganisms and minerals from your humidifier should be reduced.\nConsole humidifiers are encased in cabinets which are designed for floor use. Portable humidifiers are smaller and more readily moved. Central humidifiers are built into heating and air-conditioning systems, and humidify the whole house.\nThe two types of humidifiers which generally appear to produce the greatest dispersions of both microorganisms and minerals are:\nUltrasonic, which create a cool mist by means of ultrasonic sound vibrations.\nImpeller, or \"cool mist,\" which produce a cool mist by means of a high speed rotating disk.\nTwo additional types of humidifiers can allow for growth of micro-organisms if they are equipped with a tank that holds standing water, but generally disperse less, if any, of these pollutants into the air. These are:\nEvaporative, which transmit moisture into the air invisibly by using a fan to blow air through a moistened absorbent material, such as a belt, wick, or filter.\nSteam vaporizer, which create steam by heating water with an electrical heating element or electrodes. \"Warm mist\" humidifiers are a type of steam vaporizer humidifier in which the steam is cooled before exiting the machine.\nNote: Steam vaporizer and evaporative humidifiers are not expected to disperse substantial amounts of minerals. A steam vaporizer tested by EPA did not disperse measurable amounts of minerals; evaporative humidifiers have not been tested by EPA for mineral dispersal.\nCan I Use Tap Water in My Ultrasonic or Impeller Humidifier?\nThe Federal government has not concluded that using tap water in ultrasonic or impeller humidifiers poses a serious health risk. However, researchers have documented that these humidifiers are very efficient at dispersing minerals in tap water into the air. In addition, some consumers are bothered by a \"white dust\" that may appear on surfaces during use of these devices. Most importantly, minerals in tap water may increase the development of crusty deposits, or scale, in humidifiers. Scale can be a breeding ground for microorganisms.\nRetarding the growth of scale is the most compelling reason to find alternatives to tap water. For this reason, or if white dust is a problem or you wish to minimize your exposure to minerals in the tap water as a matter of prudence, you should either:\nUse bottled water labelled \"distilled.\" While distilled water still contains some mineral content, it will likely contain lower mineral content than most tap water. Distillation is the most effective method for removing minerals from water.\nTwo additional demineralization processes, deionization and reverse osmosis, remove most of the minerals from water, but are generally less effective than distillation. Water demineralized by these two processes would, on the average, be expected to contain a higher mineral content than distilled waters. \"Purified\" water may be produced by any of these three or other similar processes.\nBe aware, however, that not all bottled water is produced using demineralization processes. Bottled waters labelled \"spring\", \"artesian\" or \"mineral\" have not been treated to remove mineral content.\nConsider using demineralization cartridges, cassettes, or filters if supplied or recommended for use with your humidifier\nBe aware, however, that the ability of these devices to remove minerals may vary widely. Further research is needed to determine how well, and how long, these devices work. Watch for the appearance of \"white dust,\" which would indicate that minerals are not being removed.\nAlso, in areas of the country where the mineral content in the tap water is high, using distilled water may be less expensive than cartridges, cassettes, or filters.\nRecommendations for Use and Care\nIt is important to use a humidifier only when conditions require it, to use the correct moisture setting for existing conditions, and to clean it thoroughly.\nThe possible health effects resulting from the dispersal of microorganisms and minerals by home humidifiers are not fully understood. Meanwhile, it may be prudent to reduce the potential for personal exposures to these materials by taking the following precautions, particularly when using ultrasonic and impeller humidifiers.\nEmpty the tank, wipe all surfaces dry, and refill the water in portable humidifiers daily to reduce any growth of microorganisms; follow the manufacturer's instructions for changing water in console humidifiers. Be sure you unplug the unit from the electrical socket first.\nUse water with low mineral content to prevent the build-up of scale and the dispersal of minerals into the air. See the box on the left for information on using water with low mineral content.\nClean portable humidifiers every third day. Empty the tank and use a brush or other scrubber to clean it. Remove any scale, deposits, or film that has formed on the sides of the tank or on interior surfaces, and wipe all surfaces dry. Again, be sure you unplug the unit.\nFollow the manufacturer's suggestions on the use of cleaning products or disinfectants. In the absence of specific recommendations, clean all surfaces coming in contact with water with a 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide. If you use any cleaning or disinfecting agent, rinse the tank thoroughly with several changes of tap water to prevent dispersal of chemicals into the air during use.\nFollow the manufacturer's directions on cleaning and maintaining console and central (furnace mounted) humidifiers. In particular, if the humidifier contains a tank, do not allow water to stand in the tank for extended periods of time, and keep the water clean.\nKeep steam vaporizer humidifiers out of the reach of children. Steam and boiling water may cause burns.\nDo not humidify to indoor relative humidity levels exceeding 50 percent. Higher humidity levels may encourage the growth of biological organisms in the home. Hygrometers, available at local hardware stores, may be used to measure humidity levels. Some humidifiers contain a built-in humidistat which may be adjusted to the proper moisture level. If water condenses on windows, walls, or pictures, either relocate the humidifier, lower its humidistat setting, or reduce its use.\nDo not permit the area around the humidifier to become damp or wet. If dampness occurs, turn the output volume of the humidifier down. If the humidifier output volume cannot be turned down, use the, humidifier intermittently. Do not allow absorbent materials, such as carpeting, drapes, or table cloths, to become damp.\nFollow the manufacturer's instructions regarding the use, maintenance, and replacement of any materials supplied with the humidifier. Use appropriate materials as recommended by the product manufacturer.\nClean the humidifier, as directed, at the end of the humidifying season or when the product will not be in frequent use. Before storage, make sure all the parts are dry. Dispose of all used demineralization cartridges, cassettes, or filters. Store the unit in a dry location. After storage, clean the unit again and remove any dust on the outside.\nStop using your humidifier and contact your physician if you have respiratory symptoms which you believe are associated with periods of use of your home humidifier, even if you are following maintenance directions.",

I have the utmost respect for John, but I know this is what\u2019s best for me,\u201d the Total Divas star added.\nRELATED: Nikki Bella Officially Cancels Wedding to John Cena Again: \u2018I\u2019ve Ruined Everyone\u2019s Fairy Tale\u2019\n8/9 | 6\nA post shared by Nikki Bella (@thenikkibella) on Aug 9, 2018 at 4:09pm PDT\nThe promises you make mean nothing compared to those you keep.\nThe pair originally ended their engagement in mid-April, just weeks before they would walk down the aisle in Napa, California, on May 5.\nHowever, four weeks after announcing their first breakup, a source told PEOPLE in early June that Bella and Cena had officially gotten back together after she shared with PEOPLE that she was in \u201ccommunication\u201d with Cena to try and reconcile.\nThen, Total Bellas viewers saw Bella break off her engagement to Cena for the second time.\n\u201cIt just sucks.

Drawing influences from Northern and Eastern Europe, Central Asia, Siberia, and East Asia, the food of Russia leaves one more facet of Russian culture to discover on your trip.\nTraditional Russian food mostly originates from the rural population that had to deal with a harsh, long-lasting winters. Try the famous borshch soup, a hearty beet soup full of vegetables and meat. The various flavours in this soup are especially enjoyable with a spoon of fresh sour cream. Served in many restaurants across the country, pelmeni forms the heart of Russian cuisine and culture. These pastry dumplings filled typically with meatballs, can be served alone, but we recommend having them in a soup broth. Considered a \u2018food of the gods\u2019, Russian sturgeon caviar is an unmissable treat. For the finest caviar, go for the larger eggs that are lighter in colour. If you prefer a less intensely fishy flavour, make sure to order the cheaper and darker caviar. While Russian vodka has gained popularity, beer is also very popular in Russia.",

His odds of success at such a simple aim keep getting worse, because Colonel Cathcart (Kyle Chandler) keeps raising the number of missions the men have to fly. More than the retreating Germans, the real enemy for Yossarian and his rag-tag bunch of friends is the bureaucracy of the military, inverting logic at every turn.

But if you as not to, then you\u2019re sane, and so you have to fly them. George Clooney stars as the barking mad, parade-obsessed Scheisskopf. Hugh Laurie is the mellow, slightly checked-out Major de Coverley.

Visit these sites for a look back in time to see how modern life in Rotorua (and beyond) has been shaped by a diverse and colourful history.\nRotorua\u2019s complex culture, volatile geology and eventful history are summed up beautifully in this world-class museum, located in Rotorua\u2019s iconic Bath House building. Rotorua Museum features striking exhibitions, rotating art galleries, multimedia activities and in-depth guided tours that bring to life the amazing stories of this unique region.\nOhinemutu /St Faith Anglican Church\nLocated adjacent to Rotorua\u2019s CBD is the M\u0101ori village of Ohinemutu, home to the Ng\u0101ti Whakaue tribe, a sub-tribe of the Te Arawa waka (canoe) that first landed on the shores of New Zealand. With its lakeside setting and abundant geothermal resources, this was an ideal spot for early M\u0101ori settlers and a growing population.\nA self-guided walking tour of the area is free to visitors, who are welcome to view the outdoor cooking arrangements and bathing sheds that are still utilised by the modern inhabitants. Towards the lake's edge is the historic and magnificently decorated St Faith\u2019s Church, which was completed in 1914. The church combines a Tudor-style exterior with a strong M\u0101ori influence in the interior, including beautiful carvings, woven panels and a window etching of Jesus wearing a M\u0101ori cloak and appearing to walk across the surface of Lake Rotorua.\nFor over 200 years, the Tuhourangi/Ngati Wahiao tribe have welcomed visitors into their backyard, allowing them to experience the culture of Rotorua. Whakarewarewa Living M\u0101ori Village honours this legacy today, treating visitors to tours, cultural performances and demonstrations of traditional living that continue to provide a framework for day-to-day living. Treat yourself to a traditionally prepared hangi and re-live the history of this M\u0101ori village with stories from tour guides whose families have lived on site for more than five generations.\nCurrently one of New Zealand\u2019s most visited historic sites, The Buried Village has origins that can be traced back generations and is widely regarded as a birthplace of the New Zealand Tourism Industry. Originally the point of departure for visits to the world-famous Pink and White Terraces, the fate of the village changed dramatically with 1886 eruption of Mt Tarawera, which buried the village of Te Wairoa in ash and mud. In 1931, restoration and excavation of the site began, unearthing relics of the past and providing clues to the events surrounding the fateful eruption. Nearly 80 years on, in the tradition of generational duty, a third generation of caretakers continue the guardianship of the Buried Village. Building on the handwork of their forbearers, they have developed the site into an award winning heritage attraction that is visited yearly by thousands of people from all over the world.",

Datsyuk played in Detroit's final six games after missing time with a knee injury. Zetterberg, who had back surgery and has not played since Feb. 8, is hoping to return for the second round of the playoffs, if not sooner.\n\"Pavs got better each and every game,\" Babcock said. \"We're optimistic that he can continue to do that. We don't know if he doesn't need surgery and to get [the knee] fixed permanently, we'll know at the end of the season, but he seems to be feeling better. He practiced good, we grounded out [Tuesday] for a long time, and he managed to stay with it and get through it.\n\"As far as Zetterberg goes, we haven't had him basically all year. To be honest with you, [defenseman Niklas] Kronwall has taken over in running our hockey club. He's been the on-ice leader, the off-ice leader; he's been the guy every day, the glue guy for us and he needs to continue to do that. We spent our time focusing on the guys that are wearing the sweaters, not the guys who are injured, and I think that's how we managed to continue to go along.\n\"We'd love to have Z back, don't get me wrong. He's a brilliant player and a good person and obviously a big leader, but there's no sense worrying about the guys you don't have.\"\nThe Red Wings play the Bruins in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference First Round matchup Friday (7:30 p.m. ET; NBCSN, TSN, FS-D, NESN).\n\"We have to execute,\" Babcock said when asked what Detroit must do to defeat the Bruins. \"We have to play a fast game. In order to do that, we have to execute coming out of our zone. We've had success against Boston this year in the regular season \u2026 we plan on being hard-working, detail-oriented. We have to be outstanding on the penalty kill and stay out of the box, and we need our goaltending to be as good as it's ever been, and then we're going to be a tough out.\"",

On Saturday we were winning 1-0 and we were still looking to get the second goal because that\u2019s how we want to play.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Do Even Older Moms Have To Wait 18 Months Between Pregnancies? : Shots - Health News As a woman ages, choosing when to try for a second or third child means weighing fertility odds against the risks of getting pregnant again too soon. A new study provides more data to help decide.\nHow Long Should Older Moms Wait Before Getting Pregnant Again?\nCarey Goldberg\nFor older mothers, it can feel like there's little time to waste before trying for another child. But there are real risks linked to getting pregnant again too soon. Lauren Bates/Getty Images hide caption\nLauren Bates/Getty Images\nFor older mothers, it can feel like there's little time to waste before trying for another child. But there are real risks linked to getting pregnant again too soon.\nMany older first-time moms face a dilemma when it comes to baby No. 2. The clock is ticking louder than ever. But doctors advise waiting at least a year and a half after giving birth before conceiving again.\nThis is the standard advice, based on multiple studies and public health guidelines. But deciding when to try again can be a difficult decision \u2014 weighing medical risk against infertility risk. Now there are some new data points to factor in. A paper published Monday in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine analyzed medical records from nearly 150,000 Canadian pregnancies to tease out how a mother's age influences the effects of a shorter-than-recommended interval between pregnancies.\nFor older moms in a hurry, the bad news is that the study adds evidence that conceiving within 12 months of a birth does mean heightened health risks for both mother and child. But epidemiologist Laura Schummers, who led the research while at Harvard and is now a post-doctoral fellow at the University of British Columbia, says there's good news for you here as well:\n\"The optimal spacing window that we found was one to two years after the delivery of one child until the conception of the next pregnancy,\" she says. \"That's when we found the lowest risk for both mothers and babies.\" And, she adds, that's short compared to some previous studies that had suggested the optimal wait was between 18 months and up to five years.\nPast research has found a clear link between short \"interpregnancy intervals\" and increased risk of health problems for mother and baby, including premature birth. But why? The debate, Schummers says, revolves around whether the short interval is a direct biological cause of the risks, or whether it it is itself a result of other forces at work in the mother's life \u2014 for example, a lack of access to health care and unintended pregnancies.\nBecause older women are likelier to plan their pregnancies and have better access to care, Schummers and colleagues hypothesized that those mothers would not incur as much risk as younger women do if they had babies close together.\nThey found out they were wrong.\n\"In fact,\" Schummers says, \"we found that there were risks of adverse infant outcomes for women of all ages.\n\"The risks to the babies were higher among younger women, which was consistent with the team's hypothesis. But risks to the mothers were higher among older women \u2014 indeed, only older mothers incurred higher risks to their own health by getting pregnant again so soon.\nAfter accounting for other factors that could drive these numbers, Schummers says, the stats shake out like this:\n\u2022 For women 35 years or older who conceived just six months after a birth, 6.2 per thousand experienced serious illness or injury, including death. Wait 18 months and that risk dropped to 2.6 per per thousand. So, small absolute numbers but a dramatic difference.\n\u2022 A \"severe adverse infant outcome\" includes stillbirth and being born very early or very small. Among women ages 20 to 34, those who conceived after just six months had 20 babies per thousand with those severe outcomes; the risk drops to 14 per thousand among those who waited 18 months.\n\u2022 Among women 35 years or older, there were 21 severe infant outcomes per thousand among those who waited just six months; the risk drops to 18 per thousand among those who waited 18 months.\n\"This shows you both the relationship between pregnancy spacing and the increased risk,\" Schummers says, \"but also that older women tend to have a higher baseline risk of many of these outcomes at all pregnancy spacing lengths.\"\nThe research turned up a similar pattern for premature birth: A short pregnancy interval raises the risk for all women, but particularly for younger women. The risk for them dropped from 53 per thousand at a six-month interval to 32 per thousand at an 18-month interval. For women over 35, the risk dropped from 50 per thousand at six months to 36 per thousand after 18 months.\nIt seems like common sense that a woman's body may need more than six months to fully recover from building a baby and giving birth, but the actual mechanism behind the risks of short pregnancy intervals is not fully clear.\nThe leading theory, Schummers says, is that nutrients like iron or folate could be depleted in the mother's body. But more research is needed to see if that theory holds in developed countries like the United States and Canada, or if there are other mechanisms that have not yet been identified.\nFor now, she says, her team hopes these new findings can help women make decisions within their own personal contexts, and in consultation with their medical teams. The data may be particularly helpful for older women, she says, because they more often decide to have short pregnancy intervals on purpose.\n\"And so if you're making that kind of decision on purpose,\" she says, \"it's easier to say, 'You know, let's wait another three months.' \"",

The mix makes for a slow but infectious record.\nOver the last decade, Chan Marshall has made a name for herself in the Indie-Rock world, recording under the name Cat Power. For her latest album, she went to Memphis, where she recorded with some of the architects of that city's legendary soul music. Critic Tom Moon has a review of The Greatest.\nTOM MOON reporting:\nHere's a Cat Power song from a few years back.\n(Soundbite of Cat Power music)\nMOON: And here's one from her latest CD. With apologies to Ray Charles, it might be called Cat Power plus soul equals breakthrough.\nMOON: For this disc, Cat Power sought help from some of the secret weapons of Memphis music. Among them is the guitarist Mabon Teenie Hodges and his base playing brother, Leroy Flick Hodges. They backed Al Green on such classics as Let's Stay Together, and Ann Peebles on her hit, I Can't Stand the Rain. They give Cat Powers downcast odes about romantic despair a firm anchor.\nMOON: You can tell these musicians are inspired by Cat Power's halting, torn apart delivery. Check out the title track, called The Greatest, which tells of a young man's desire to be a prize fighter. The musicians creep along, measure by precious measure. They're seeking tiny, almost transparent ways to move the story forward.\nMOON: Cat Power's The Greatest doesn't clobber you with greatness right away. It gets under your skin slowly. Different facets emerge with each spin. It's soul all right, but not the blazing horns and whiplash rhythm guitars we associate with Memphis in the 1960's. No, this is soul as an idea, a way of making music that stretches across generations and genre distinctions, and turns out to be powerful enough to transform her ramblings into something totally mesmerizing.\nNORRIS: The new album from Cat Power is called The Greatest.

[view full summary]\nAuthors Susan Koba and Carol Mitchell introduce teachers of grades 3\u20135 to their conceptual framework for successful instruction of hard-to-teach science concepts. Their methodology comprises four steps: (1) engage students about their preconceptions and address their thinking; (2) target lessons to be learned; (3) determine appropriate strategies; and (4) use Standards-based teaching that builds on student understandings. The authors not only explain how to use their framework but also provide a variety of tools and examples of its application on four hard-to-teach foundational concepts: the flow of energy and matter in ecosystems, force and motion, matter and its transformation, and Earth\u2019s shape. Both preservice and inservice elementary school teachers will find this approach appealing, and the authors\u2019 engaging writing style and user-friendly tables help educators adapt the method with ease.\nHard-to-Teach Science Concepts: A Framework to Support Learners, Grades 3\u20135 (e-book)\nEarth\u2019s Shape and Gravity\nA chapter from Hard-to-Teach Science Concepts: A Framework to Support Learners, Grades 3\u20135\nIt is not difficult to think of reasons why it is important for students to understand that a round globe represents our planet.

[view full summary]\nIt is not difficult to think of reasons why it is important for students to understand that a round globe represents our planet. After all, Earth is our home in space. Environmentalists remind us that it\u2019s the only home we have, so it\u2019s important that we take care of it. The spherical Earth concept is essential for understanding geography, weather, and certain phases of history, such as the great voyages of exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries. Learning about voyages to the Moon or space probes to other planets makes little sense if students fail to understand that Earth is one planet among several in the solar system. In other words, the spherical Earth and gravity concept is an essential building block for many other concepts that we expect students to learn about the world. To transform the task of teaching about Earth\u2019s shape and gravity from a seemingly intractable challenge into a great opportunity, we turn to the Instructional Planning Framework described in the early chapters of this book.",

        "raw_content": "\"There are almost no scientific studies about how successful long-term maintainers have managed it, but there is one very good one - a study by Rena Wing and Suzanne Phelan called 'Long-term weight loss maintenance'. It looked at the experiences of 1400 people who had lost a lot of weight and who had kept it off. They found that the most successful ones continued, among other things, to eat a low-fat diet, to weigh themselves often (half of them every day), and to exercise a lot. This is my personal experience.\"\nIt's now 70 weeks since I decided to change my eating habits for good. I started at 23st 5lbs327lbs148.5kg, and in those 70 weeks I have lost 8st 12lbs124lbs56.3kg, with a bit more to go. When I started, I was 61 years old. I was taking three types of medication to control blood pressure, and statins to control cholesterol levels...\nA big meal\nMy version of portion control was the lower in calories something was, the more of it I ate. Lunch is a good example. I nearly always have a salad, and I eat it from a big bowl. It's a really big bowl...\nStarting to think maintenance\nAlthough I haven't yet decided on a final target weight, it can't be far away, so I am thinking more and more about maintenance. One thing that bothers me is that if I go away for a couple of days, on my return I have always put on a kilo, sometimes more...\nWhat's my secret\nProbably everybody who has lost a lot of weight is asked \"what's your secret?\". I usually start by saying \"if I told you, it wouldn't help you\", because we all have different bodies, and we all have different attitudes to things as well. But they still keep asking! So here are the first five of my ten 'secrets'...\nI'm a healthy weight\nMy BMI yesterday was 24.9 - I am officially a healthy weight!! So this would not be a good time to drift up again, especially as I have also now lost 9st 13lbs139lbs63kg, and I would love to reach this imperial measure milestone of a 10 stones140lbs loss (63.5kg). BUT...\n10 stones140lbs63.5kg lost\nI woke up a couple of days ago to find that my weight had lurched down overnight (which happens occasionally, as we all know). It had dipped to 13st 5lbs187lbs85kg, which gives me a BMI of 24.8, and a total weight loss of 10 st140lbs63.5kg dead - 43% of my starting weight...\nThe first week of maintenance\nA week or so back I hit 13st 5lbs187lbs85kg, and decided (with a BMI of 24.8) that that was enough. Now - maintenance! I have blogged before that I wanted my maintenance to be my new eating habits, but tweaked a bit. So I'm following the advice on the Nutracheck site...\nI usually work from home, but I do sometimes need to be out for the day, and then I take a packed lunch. It's pretty easy for me, because lunch at home is nearly always a big salad, so rather than putting it in a bowl, I just put it in a plastic box instead...\nIn praise of walking\nIn my last blog I said that as I lost weight in the last couple of years, I managed to rediscover the great feeling of walking, which I had lost when I was very heavy. Almost immediately after writing that blog, Ann and I went away for three days, hoping to walk a bit...\nMaintenance - my first three months\nI wrote in my last blog that someone was really surprised, now I am at my target weight, that I still have what she thought was a rather austere diet. She asked whether I was planning on eating like this forever. The short answer is yes...\nMaintaining on holiday\nI am just back from a week all alone in a self-catering cottage in the Yorkshire Wolds, while Ann was a few miles away at a residential summer school. Apart from missing the love of my life, it was a great week, walking in that beautiful part of the country...\nToday is a milestone for me - it's two years since I decided to change my eating habits for good. For 50 years I had followed 'diets' and, when the diets finished I went right back to eating what I had always eaten, and any weight I had lost soon piled back on, usually with a bit more...\nDiet creep after 6 months of maintenance\nIt's half a year ago that I decided I was at my target weight 13st 2lbs184lbs83.5kg. As I've said before, it's bobbed up and down more than I would like, but this morning I weighed 13st182lbs82.7kg. So far, then, there have been some slips, but I've stopped them becoming slides! I'm pleased...\nThere are still people I meet who ask me how I lost so much weight and, more and more, how I am managing to keep it off. Almost always they are disappointed when I tell them...\nIf you've read any of my blogs you'll know I am very keen on planning and measuring! So at the start of December, with Christmas now in sight, I've been thinking about my weight over Christmas and beyond...\nThe first quarter of 2015 was when I finished my weight loss, and arrived at 13st 2lbs184lbs83.5kg - a loss of 44% of my body weight. The rest of the year was the start of maintaining and, after bobbing about quite a lot over the last nine months, today I weighed 13st 2lbs184lbs83.7kg. So the big headline is that 2015 was GOOD NEWS...\nI was a late starter drinking alcohol. As I remember, I didn't have an alcoholic drink until I was about 18, but by the time I left University I was a confirmed (but not excessive) beer drinker. On average I probably had a couple of pints every day...\nControlling the Yo-Yo\nSome people seem to keep their body weight stable without trying. I don't know how it happens (maybe it's in their genes), but one thing I am pretty sure about - I have never been one of those people...\nLifetime firsts!\nUntil I lost my 10 st140lbs63.5kg with Nutracheck, I had usually been very overweight. In my late teens and twenties I played a lot of sport, and I wasn't quite so heavy, but even then I was always at least 15 st150lbs68kg - and, no, it wasn't muscle...\nA year of maintenance\nAt the end of last March I stepped on the scales and they told me that I weighed 13st 5lbs187lbs85kg (BMI 24.8). In the previous 20 months I had lost 10 st140lbs63.5kg, and Ann and I decided that that was a big enough loss, and that 85kg was a good target weight...\nKeeping on keeping it simple\nOf my 60-odd blogs, the one where I had the most positive feedback was about one from November 2015, called 'Keeping it Simple'.

        "raw_content": "Archives|Actor's Trial, Complete With Pulp Novel Characters, Draws to a Close\nActor's Trial, Complete With Pulp Novel Characters, Draws to a Close\nBy CHARLIE LEDUFF MARCH 5, 2005\nLOS ANGELES, March 4 - During the murder trial of Robert Blake, the public has been privy to one bizarre tale after another, grist for a true-life pulp novel.\nOver the past two months, observers in Van Nuys Superior Court in Los Angeles have been fed a steady diet of comic-book-style characters, a tattooed mobster turned preacher, two strung-out stunt doubles who say they were solicited by Mr. Blake to double as hit men; accounts of space aliens, experiments with crack-smoking monkeys and salacious details of a love child.\nThese are the bits and pieces of the strange world of Mr. Blake, the former television detective \"Baretta,\" who is accused of murdering his wife and soliciting the stuntmen to participate. His wife, Bonny Lee Bakley, was a woman with a reputation as a grifter and gold digger, who the defense contends trapped Mr. Blake into an unloving marriage by becoming pregnant with his child.\nClosing arguments ended on Friday with a plea from Mr. Blake's lawyer, M. Gerald Schwartzbach. \"End this nightmare for Mr. Blake,\" he said. \"And you will give him back his life.\"\nThe jurors must decide if Mr. Blake pulled the trigger, which would put him in prison for the rest of his life, and if he solicited two stuntmen, each count carrying a maximum penalty of nine years.\nMr. Blake, 71, it is not disputed, did not care for his wife. A man with a taste for Runyonesque language, he often called her \"pig\" but says he had nothing to do with her death.\nMs. Bakley, 44, who had been convicted of identity fraud, fished for rich and famous men by sending them nude photos of herself. Her dream, she told friends, was to marry a celebrity.\nMr. Blake has an alibi for the time of the killing, his lawyer reminded the jury. When Ms. Bakley was shot while she sat in his car on a dark street, he said, Mr. Blake had returned to the restaurant where they had eaten to retrieve a .38 revolver, which was not used in her killing.\nThe murder weapon, a Nazi-era pistol, was found in a nearby Dumpster, without fingerprints.\nMr. Schwartzbach asked the jurors to apply logic. \"It makes no sense,\" he said. \"Why wouldn't he take her out to the desert?\"\nMr. Schwartzbach was asking jurors to accept the Los Angeles celebrity defense that has had some success: the real killer is still out there.\nProsecutors said that Mr. Blake told at least four men of his desire to \"whack\" his wife. The stuntmen, Gary McLarty and Ronald Hambleton, testified that he discussed scenarios with them on how to \"snuff\" or \"pop\" his wife.\n\"This is not a rush to judgment,\" said Shellie L. Samuels, the deputy district attorney prosecuting Mr. Blake. \"The asking is the crime.\"\nMs. Samuels said Mr. Blake had motive: he hated his wife but wanted the child; he had the method: shooting her in the head on an ill-lighted street; he had the opportunity.\nBesides the pistol, one of the few other pieces of physical evidence was a phone card Mr. Blake bought ostensibly to contact Mr. Hambleton without being traced, according to Mr. Hambleton's testimony.\nMr. Schwartzbach reminded jurors that the stuntmen were unreliable. Mr. McLarty said in court that he was a longtime cocaine abuser. He had a mental breakdown, believed that the police were tunneling under his house and thought he was being monitored from outer space.\nEarlier in the trial, a professor from the University of California, Los Angeles, testified as an expert witness about the psychotropic effects of cocaine. He said that he had smoked crack cocaine himself and sat in a cage with monkeys to teach them how to smoke cocaine as well.\nAs for Mr. Hambleton, he admitted using methamphetamines and once called the police because he believed his house was surrounded by armed men. The police found no one.\nThen there is Frank Minucci, a street tough turned actor turned minister, who said he and Mr. Blake had a longtime telephone relationship in which Mr. Blake told him how he wanted to \"annihilate\" his wife. Telephone records show, however, that the men exchanged only a handful of short calls.\nOutside the courtroom, at recess was John Solari, a former pal of Mr. Blake. The men had a falling out, and Mr. Solari said his presence was motivated by curiosity and disdain. \"If I was going to kill my wife,\" he said, \"I wouldn't have done it that way.\"\nNot 10 feet away stood Mr. Blake, alone. How are you feeling, he was asked.\n\"I'm on the right side of the dirt,\" he said wanly.\nA version of this article appears in print on March 5, 2005, on Page A00008 of the National edition with the headline: Actor's Trial, Complete With Pulp Novel Characters, Draws to a Close.

McNEIL Jr. SEPT. 28, 2009\nSaudi Arabia has announced that everyone arriving for the annual pilgrimage to Mecca in November will have to swallow a dose of oral polio vaccine under the eyes of health officials.\nThe kingdom has become more and more aggressive in its fight against polio, which has hovered on the brink of eradication for years. Until recently, the Saudi authorities asked for proof of vaccination when pilgrims applied for visas and forcibly vaccinated only those arriving from countries where polio was endemic.\nCredit Issa Mohammad/Associated Press\nIn New York last week, the country\u2019s foreign minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal, and Ted Turner, the cable television billionaire and chairman of the United Nations Foundation, announced that Saudi Arabia would donate $30 million toward global polio eradication. While that is only a small contribution to the $6.1 billion spent over the last 20 years, it is symbolically important.\nPolio is endemic in only four countries: Pakistan, Afghanistan and regions of Nigeria and India with a Muslim majority. It persists largely because of a persistent rumor that the vaccine is a Western plot to sterilize Muslim girls.\nEach year, travelers from endemic countries seed outbreaks in other poor countries, where vaccination drives had been dropped when the disease was thought to have been eliminated. In some years, it has reached Saudi Arabia, where millions of pilgrims live close together in tent cities for the holy week.\nA version of this article appears in print on September 29, 2009, on Page D6 of the National edition with the headline: Saudi Arabia: Pilgrims Who Travel to Mecca This Fall Will Get an Oral Polio Vaccine on Arrival.

        "raw_content": "Politics|The Legal Issues Raised by the Stormy Daniels Payment, Explained\nThe Legal Issues Raised by the Stormy Daniels Payment, Explained\nOne question surrounding Michael D. Cohen\u2019s payment to a porn actress is whether it was intended to influence the election by suppressing a claim that could have hurt Donald J. Trump\u2019s chances.CreditCreditJeenah Moon for The New York Times\nBy Charlie Savage and Kenneth P. Vogel\nWASHINGTON \u2014 The disclosure by Rudolph W. Giuliani that President Trump repaid his longtime personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, for the $130,000 hush-money payment made to a pornographic actress shortly before the 2016 election has put new scrutiny on the legal issues raised by the unusual transaction.\nMr. Trump has never reported this expenditure, loan or repayment \u2014 either in campaign filings with the Federal Election Commission or on his financial disclosure form with the government ethics office. But it remains murky what exactly Mr. Trump knew, and when he learned it.\nDo campaign finance laws apply?\nA threshold question is whether the payment to the actress, Stephanie Clifford, who goes by the stage name Stormy Daniels, was intended to influence the election by suppressing a claim that could hurt Mr. Trump\u2019s chances. If so, the transaction was most likely covered by federal campaign finance laws.\nThose laws barred candidates\u2019 supporters from making donations \u2014 including in-kind donations \u2014 worth more than $2,700 to presidential campaigns during the 2016 general election. And while those laws allow candidates to spend an unlimited amount of their own money to help their campaigns, they require the candidates to disclose such self-funding, both as donations to their campaigns and as expenditures. But if the motive for the payment was unrelated to the election, then it was not covered by those laws.\nRecent history suggests that it can be tricky to prove that the motive behind such a payment was political rather than personal. In 2012, the Justice Department prosecuted John Edwards, the former Democratic senator from North Carolina, over payments from wealthy donors that were used to hide his pregnant mistress while he ran for president. Mr. Edwards\u2019s lawyers argued that he was instead trying to hide the affair from his wife.\nIn the end, a jury acquitted Mr. Edwards of one charge while deadlocking on the other five, and prosecutors opted not to seek a new trial. Richard L. Hasen, a professor of law at the University of California, Irvine, said that after the Edwards mistrial, federal prosecutors will be reluctant to go forward with similar cases unless they have \u201cdocumentary proof, a smoking gun, that a payment was in fact election-related.\u201d\nWhat is the argument that the payment was not campaign-related?\nIn an interview on Thursday on the Fox News program \u201cFox & Friends,\u201d Mr. Giuliani insisted that the payment was not a campaign contribution. He said Mr. Cohen was trying to help Mr. Trump\u2019s family \u201cto save their marriage \u2014 not their marriage so much as their reputation.\u201d But then, muddying that message, Mr. Giuliani said, \u201cImagine if that came out on Oct. 15, 2016, in the middle of the last debate with Hillary Clinton.\u201d Separately, in an interview with The New York Times, Mr. Giuliani acknowledged that \u201cit could overlap as a campaign problem,\u201d but reiterated that Mr. Trump was not thinking of the payment as a campaign expense.\nIt could work in Mr. Trump\u2019s favor that he and his lawyers had a long history of using legal avenues to try to fight off damaging claims. That history could form the basis of an argument that Mr. Cohen\u2019s payment to Ms. Clifford \u2014 and Mr. Trump\u2019s reimbursement of it \u2014 would have happened whether or not he was running for president.\nHere\u2019s Everything Trump\u2019s Team Has Said About the Payment to Stormy Daniels\nFrom complete denial to acknowledging involvement, what President Trump and his lawyers said about the $130,000 paid to the pornographic film actress.\n\u201cIf this was a first-time candidate without a public reputation, then it would be harder to argue that it wasn\u2019t an expenditure to influence an election,\u201d said Charles Spies, a Republican election lawyer who worked in support of one of Mr. Trump\u2019s rivals, the former Florida governor Jeb Bush, in the 2016 Republican primary. \u201cBut Donald Trump has a long record of aggressively defending his reputation from attacks.\u201d\nThat track record could prove less compelling if the authorities obtain evidence that Mr. Cohen privately discussed the payment in the context of Mr. Trump\u2019s campaign. Last month, federal law enforcement officials in New York raided Mr. Cohen\u2019s office and hotel room, carting away numerous documents and electronic devices that are now the subject of a fight over attorney-client privilege. One of the things they are apparently investigating is the payment to Ms. Clifford.\nIf the payment was a loan, is Cohen out of trouble?\nNot if the loan was intended to influence the election. Campaigns routinely take out large loans from banks when they\u2019re running short of cash ahead of elections. But federal election laws require that those loans come from banks as routine business transactions. Personal loans count as contributions that are still legally capped at the individual contribution limit \u2014 even if they are later repaid in full, according to the Federal Election Commission website.\nWhen would this have had to be reported, and by whom?\nIf the payment were to be deemed campaign-related, the Trump campaign should have disclosed it in its periodic filings with the F.E.C., as soon as Mr. Trump or his campaign learned that Mr. Cohen had made it. If Mr. Trump or his campaign only discovered the payment after the fact, they should have amended their previous filings to reflect the expenditure, and any reimbursements to Mr. Cohen. The Wall Street Journal first reported the $130,000 payment to Ms. Clifford in January, and Mr. Trump has not moved to amend his disclosures.\nIn an interview with The Times, Mr. Giuliani was vague about key questions concerning what Mr. Trump knew and when he knew it, saying that Mr. Trump \u201cdid know that there was a form of reimbursements\u201d to Mr. Cohen over the course of 2017, but maintaining that the president did not know what it was for specifically. Mr. Giuliani also said that some executives at the Trump Organization \u201cknew about the fact that Cohen believes money was owed to him \u2014 I don\u2019t know when that came up.\u201d\nMight a loan raise non-election-law issues?\nYes. As a government employee, Mr. Trump is also required to report any liabilities in excess of $10,000 on a financial disclosure form filed with the Office of Government Ethics. His 2017 form \u2014 which he signed in June, certifying it was \u201ctrue, complete and correct\u201d \u2014 does not list any outstanding loan from Mr. Cohen, campaign-related or otherwise. When he spoke with The Times on Thursday, Mr. Giuliani did not answer why the money was not listed on the president\u2019s financial disclosure form.\nWhat could the penalties be?\nWhen campaign finance violations are punished, they typically result in fines by the Federal Election Commission that are pegged to the size of the unlawful contribution or expenditure. The Justice Department can also prosecute willful violations of election laws, or willful false statements on the federal personal financial disclosure forms, which are felonies and can result in up to five years in prison.\nThere is little chance that the department would file charges against Mr. Trump, regardless of what the evidence shows, because its Office of Legal Counsel has opined that the Constitution makes sitting presidents immune from prosecution.\nBut Mr. Cohen, after the raid last month, is under intense legal pressure.\nFollow Charlie Savage and Kenneth P.

        "title": "OHCHR | UN human rights experts welcome Greek referendum and call for international solidarity",
        "raw_content": "UN human rights experts welcome Greek referendum and call for international solidarity\nGENEVA (30 June 2015) \u2013 Two United Nations human rights experts today welcomed the holding of a referendum in Greece to decide by democratic process the path to follow to solve the Greek economic crisis without deterioration in the human rights situation.\nThe UN Independent Experts on the promotion of a democratic and equitable international order, Alfred de Zayas, and on human rights and international solidarity, Virginia Dandan, stressed that there is much more at stake than debt repayment obligations, echoing a warning* issued earlier this month by the UN Independent Expert on foreign debt and human rights, Juan Pablo Bohoslavsky.\n\u201cAll human rights institutions and mechanisms should welcome the Greek referendum as an eloquent expression of the self-determination of the Greek people in conformity with article 1 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and in pursuance of article 25 ICCPR on public participation. Indeed, a democratic and equitable international order requires participation by all concerned stakeholders in decision-making and respect for due process, which can best be achieved through international solidarity and a human rights approach to the solution of all problems, including financial crises.\nIt is disappointing that the IMF and the EU have failed to reach a solution that does not require additional retrogressive austerity measures. Some leaders have expressed dissatisfaction with the idea of holding a referendum in Greece. Why? Referenda are in the best traditions of democratic governance.\nNo one can expect the Prime Minister of Greece to renounce the commitments he made to the people who elected him with a clear mandate to negotiate a fair solution that does not dismantle Greek democracy and lead to further unemployment and social misery. Capitulating to an ultimatum imposing further austerity measures on the Greek population would be incompatible with the democratic trust placed on the Greek Prime Minister by the electorate. By nature, every State has the responsibility to protect the welfare of all persons living under its jurisdiction. This encompasses fiscal and budgetary sovereignty and regulatory space which cannot be trumped by outside actors, whether States, inter-governmental organizations or creditors.\nArticle 103 of the UN Charter stipulates that the Charter provisions prevail over all other treaties, therefore no treaty or loan agreement can force a country to violate the civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights of its population, nor can a loan agreement negate the sovereignty of a State. Any agreement that would require such a violation of human rights and customary international law is contra bonos mores and hence null and void pursuant to Art. 53 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties.\nA democratic and equitable international order requires a commercial and financial regime that facilitates the realization of all human rights. Inter-governmental organizations must foster and under no conditions hinder the achievement of the plenitude of human rights.\nForeign debt is no excuse to derogate from or violate human rights or to cause retrogression in contravention of articles 2 and 5 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.\nIn 2013, the Independent Expert on foreign debt and human rights stated that the policy austerity measures adopted to secure additional financing from the International Monetary Fund, the European Commission and the European Central Bank had pushed the Greek economy into recession and generally undermined the enjoyment of human rights, particularly economic, social and cultural rights.\nThis is the moment for the international community to demonstrate solidarity with the people of Greece, to respect their democratic will as expressed in a referendum, to proactively help them out of this financial crisis, which finds a major cause in the financial meltdown of 2007-08, for which Greece bears no responsibility.\nIndeed, democracy means self-determination, and self-determination often calls for referenda \u2013 also in Greece.\u201d\n(*) Read the statement by the UN Independent Expert on foreign debt and human rights (2 June 2015) \u2013 \u201cGreek crisis: Human rights should not stop at doors of international institutions, says UN expert\u201d: http://www.ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=16032&LangID=E\nLearn more, log on to:\nInternational solidarity: http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/Solidarity/Pages/IESolidarityIndex.aspx\nInternational order: http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/IntOrder/Pages/IEInternationalorderIndex.aspx\nSee the 2014 report on Greece by the Independent Expert on foreign debt: (A/HRC/25/50/Add.1): http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/Development/IEDebt/Pages/CountryVisits.aspx\nFor more information and media requests please contact Thibaut Guillet (+41 22 917 9389 / tguillet@ohchr.org) or write to ie-internationalorder@ohchr.org",

        "raw_content": "Mr X and Radio Telef\u00ed\u00ads \u00c9ireann\nWhether RT\u00c9 was justified in refusing access to records relating to a programme broadcast in April 2016 on the basis that the records are exempt under section 36(1)(b) and 36(1)(c) or otherwise\nOn 18 April 2016, the applicant made an FOI request to RT\u00c9 for access to records which contain the following information:\n\"Details of the amount of money paid to a [named] production company for a [named] interview, which aired in April 2016, any breakdown of how this money was spent plus all correspondence between RT\u00c9 and the production company regarding the documentary.\"\nOn 15 June 2016, RT\u00c9 refused the applicant's request on the basis that the records contain commercially sensitive information (section 36(1)(b) and 36(1)(c) of the Act). The applicant requested an internal review of RT\u00c9's decision. On 23 June 2016, RT\u00c9 upheld its original decision. On 16 August 2016, the applicant applied to this Office for a review of RT\u00c9's decision.\nDuring the course of the review, the applicant confirmed in writing to this Office, that he was agreeable to narrowing the scope of his request to:\n\"Records which relate to money or expenses paid to a [named] individual or members of the individual's family in connection with the documentary\"\nThis Office informed RT\u00c9 of the revised request and identified the records that fall within the scope of the revised request. Following consultations with the production company and the individuals to whom the records relate, RT\u00c9 argued that the records identified should not be released. RT\u00c9 said that the records fall outside the scope of the FOI Act, having regard to the Freedom of Information Act, 1997 (Prescribed Bodies) (No.2) Regulations 2000 (S.I. No. 115 of 2000). RT\u00c9 also argued that, even if the records do fall within the scope of the FOI Act, they are commercially sensitive.\nThis Office informed the applicant of the additional grounds relied on by RT\u00c9. In reply, the applicant argued that the records requested do not fall within the exclusion in S. I. 115 of 2000 and are not commercially sensitive and should be released in the public interest.\nI have decided to conclude this review by way of a formal binding decision. In conducting this review, I have had regard to correspondence between RT\u00c9 and the applicant, to correspondence between RT\u00c9 and this Office, to correspondence between the applicant and this Office, to the contents of the records at issue and to the provisions of the FOI Act 2014.\nA number of the records originally identified by RT\u00c9 as relevant to the applicant's request, were created after the date of the request. Those records have not been considered for the purposes of this review. Two records fall within the scope of the applicant's narrowed request. The scope of this review is confined to the following issue:\n- Whether RT\u00c9 has justified its decision to refuse access to records 1 and 2 on the basis that the records fall outside the scope of the FOI Act having regard to S.I. 115 of 2000, or on the basis that the records are commercially sensitive and are exempt under section 36(1)(b) or 36(1)(c) of the FOI Act 2014.\nSection 18 of the Act provides for the deletion of exempt information and the granting of access to a copy of a record with such exempt information removed. This should be done where it is practicable to do so and where the copy of the record thus created would not be misleading. However, the Commissioner takes the view that neither the definition of a record nor the provisions of section 18 envisage or require the extracting of particular sentences or occasional paragraphs from records for the purpose of granting access to those particular sentences or paragraphs. Generally speaking, therefore, the Commissioner is not in favour of the cutting or \"dissecting\" of records to such an extent.\nSection 22(12)(b) of the FOI Act provides that a decision to refuse a request shall be presumed not to have been justified unless the head of the FOI body shows to the Commissioner's satisfaction that its decision was justified. This means that the onus is on RT\u00c9 to satisfy the Commissioner that its decision to refuse access to the records was justified.\nRecord one was created by the production company in March 2016. It contains an email from the production company to RT\u00c9 in relation to contributors to the programme.\nRecord two was created by the production company a number of days after the programme was broadcast in April 2016. It contains an email from the production company to RT\u00c9 in relation to the programme.\nRT\u00c9 argues that records one and two fall outside the scope of the Act, having regard to Statutory Instrument No. 115 of 2000.\nFreedom of Information Act, 1997 (Prescribed Bodies) (No.2) Regulations, 2000\n(S.I. No 115 of 2000)\nRT\u00c9 was brought under FOI in 2000, further to Statutory Instrument No. 115 of 2000 (the Regulations). Those Regulations, which continue in force further to section 54(2) and Schedule 5 of the FOI Act 2014, specify the extent to which RT\u00c9 is subject to FOI. Schedule 2 of the Regulations provides that the following functions fall within the remit of the Act:\nMaking of contracts of or for services with any person, company or other body.\nThe Regulations further provide that the functions specified in Schedule 2 shall be deemed not to include any of the matters specified in Schedule 3 of the Regulations. Amongst the excluded matters are:\n\"4. The process of making editorial decisions concerning programme or programme schedule content which, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, shall include preliminary programme proposal reviews, programme planning and final pre-transmission editorial decisions.\n5. The process of post-transmission internal review analysis of any programme or schedule of programmes broadcast.\"\nThe Applicant's submissions\nIn his submissions to this Office, the applicant states that RT\u00c9 did not rely on the 2000 Regulations in its original decision or internal review decision. The applicant states that his revised request seeks only details of expenses or fees paid in relation to the programme and in no way interferes with editorial decisions or post-transmission analysis. The applicant argues that there is a public interest in members of the public having information on how RT\u00c9 uses public funds.\nRT\u00c9's submissions\nAccording to RT\u00c9, record one was created as part of the process of pre-transmission editorial decision making. It argues that the decision involved is an editorial decision. According to RT\u00c9, the issue would have a material editorial impact on the programme because it would substantially impact on the relationship between the participants and the production company. RT\u00c9 refers to its Journalism Guidelines in support of its arguments that the decision involved is editorial in nature. It argues that record one falls outside the scope of the FOI Act having regard to Schedule 3, Paragraph 4 of the 2000 Regulations.\nRT\u00c9 states that record two was created as part of RT\u00c9's post-transmission review and analysis of the programme. It argues therefore, that record two falls outside the scope of the FOI Act on the basis of Schedule 3, Paragraph 5 of the 2000 Regulations.\nRT\u00c9 provided this Office with a copy of the submissions it received from the production company. The production company also contends that the records are excluded from the Act by virtue of Schedule 3 of the 2000 Regulations. RT\u00c9 states that it consulted with the individuals to whom the records relate and they confirmed that they were not in favour of release of the records.\nThe application of the FOI Act to records held by RT\u00c9 was considered by the High Court in RT\u00c9 v. the Information Commissioner [2014] IEHC 113. That case involved records of data collected on the amount of broadcast time allocated to political parties during a general election campaign. In his decision, \u00d3 Caoimh J. stated the following in respect of the application of the 2000 Regulations:\n\"It must be said however, that if the role in question was one involving the functions specified in Schedule 3 that they must be deemed to be excluded from the term management in relation to the functions contained in Schedule 2. I consider that the deeming provision contained in Article 2 (3) of the Regulations of 2000 is such that it cannot be said, in applying a wide construction to Schedule 3, that one is failing to construe narrowly an exception to the provision in question. I am satisfied that the functions in Schedule 2 must by reason of the deeming provision be construed somewhat narrowly in the first place. Accordingly, the essential focus in these proceedings is and must be Schedule 3 and the various paragraphs thereof in assessing whether the functions giving rise to the data sought in these proceedings are functions encompassed by the terms of the schedule. If the functions in question can be broadly described as management functions but they entail functions in Schedule 3 then they do not fall within the term of the management functions specified in Schedule 2.\n... I believe that it is clear from the reading of the schedule that the matters sought to be excluded from Schedule 2 were programme related functions.\n...The use of words such as process of making editorial decisions clearly suggest a wide connotation but it is not restricted to the editorial decision itself but the broader context of the process of making such decisions.\"\n\u00d3 Caoimh J. held that the Commissioner had erred in law in his construction of the Regulations when applied to the facts in that case. Record one was created a month before the programme was broadcast. At that time RT\u00c9 and the production company were exchanging correspondence in relation to matters such as proposed production schedules, proposed budget and proposed editorial specification. I accept that record one was created as part of the broader context of the process of making editorial decisions. I find, therefore, that record one is excluded from the Act, having regard to Schedule 3 paragraph 4 of the 2000 Regulations.\nRecord two was created after the programme was broadcast. At that time RT\u00c9 and the production company were exchanging correspondence in relation to the programme. I accept that record two was created in the context of RT\u00c9's post-production analysis of the programme. I find that record two is excluded from the Act having regard to Schedule 3 paragraph 5 of the 2000 Regulations.\nAs I have found that records one and two relate to functions of RT\u00c9 deemed not to be included for the purposes of prescribing RT\u00c9 as a body for FOI purposes under the FOI Act, it is not necessary to determine whether the records are commercially sensitive. Furthermore, it is not appropriate to consider whether the public interest favours release of the records.\nI affirm RT\u00c9's decision to refuse access to records one and two on the basis that the records are excluded from the FOI Act, having regard to Schedule 3 paragraphs 4 and 5 of S.I. No. 115 of 2000.",

        "raw_content": "Lai Mohammed Inspects Lagos-Ibadan Expressway\nMay 10, 2018 ukamakaNewsNo Comment on Lai Mohammed Inspects Lagos-Ibadan Expressway\nThe Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Wednesday continued the inspection of Federal Government\u2019s infrastructural projects across the country with a visit to the Lagos-Ibadan expressway to inspect the ongoing rehabilitation, reconstruction and expansion work there.\nThe Minister, who kick-started the tour on Tuesday with a visit to the Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge rail line, inspected the two sections of the expressway: from Lagos to Shagamu Interchange and Shagamu Interchange to Ibadan.\nWhile briefing the Minister and his team, Mr. Noar Narkisis, the Project Engineer of the Reynolds Construction Company (RCC), the contractor handling the Shagamu-Ibadan axis, said the work had reached 58.27% completion.\nHe said the RCC is currently working to expand and reinforce the road, in addition to building concrete drainages and repairing failed bridges, adding: \u201cThe work we are doing is the rehabilitation and widening of the existing road, drainage work and we are doing expansion work for bad bridges and also repairing failed bridges.\u201d\nMr. Narkisis, who said the RCC is also doing maintenance of the existing carriageway to ensure a free flow of traffic, gave the assurance that before the end of the year, the company will complete the asphalt-laying phase of the entire 84-kilometer sector.\nThe Project Engineer told the Minister that 4,000 jobs have been created as a result of the highway construction on Section II alone.\nAt the Shagamu Interchange, Mr. Wolfgang Losesser, the Division Manager of Julius Berger, the contractor handling Section One from Lagos to the Shagamu Interchange, said 17 kilometres of the 3-lane, 43-kilometre road had been completed.\n\u201cFrom Shagamu driving toward here, the first 17 kilometres on the Lagos bound side has already been completed. Then you realize that it has gone back to the old two lanes. Here we are just doing some palliative work because the rainy season is coming and we are working on the drainage,\u201d he said.\nMr. Losesser said in the next couple of days, massive construction work will commence, and disclosed that a huge interchange is being constructed to contain the huge vehicular traffic around the Redeem Christian Church of God.\nHe also said for the first time in Nigeria, a special mixture of asphalt is being used to prevent the road from caving in due to the movement of heavy-duty vehicles and to extend the lifespan of the road to 20 years.\nThe Divisional Manager said the Section One of the road is 53% completed.\nIn his remarks, Minister of Information and Culture explained that the recent extension of the scope of work was in anticipation of the huge traffic coming out of Lagos to the Shagamu interchange.\n\u201cSome 70% of the traffic coming to Lagos is from the Lagos-Shagamu Exchange\u2026 which explains why the Lagos-Shagamu comprises 3 lanes on each side while the Shagamu Ibadan comprises 2 lanes on each side,\u201d he said.\nAlhaji Mohammed expressed happiness at the pace of work and called on the contractor to deliver on the project as scheduled.\nHe said already, travel time on the expressway has been reduced, accidents have reduced and security is enhanced, even with partial completion, and that travel time would be further reduced when the road is completed, with the attendant positive impact for the economy.\nChris Brown Sued Over Alleged Sexual Assault at His House\nNigerian Music Chart: Mayorkun and Davido\u2019s \u2018Bobo\u2019 Debuts",

        "raw_content": "\"It had to stay simple\": FaulknerBrowns' S-shaped council building Timber-clad meeting pods act as landmarks across multiple floors Fluorescent tubes, by XAL, dramatically suspended in the entrance Desks are shared within sectors; Orangebox supplied the seating The ground-floor public library; skylights run the length of the building\nFaulknerBrowns puts Rochdale on the map\nWords by Jenny Brewer Photo by Hufton + Crow/ David Cadzow\nClient: Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council\nIt\u2019s a dismal, soggy day when onoffice makes the trip to Rochdale\u2019s new council headquarters, but inside \u2013 if it weren\u2019t for the rain lashing against the windows \u2013 you\u2019d never know. Past an impressive but unpretentious five-storey glazed entrance, topped by a collection of hanging oversized fluorescent tubes that seem to slash through the air, stands a vast, light-filled atrium that cuts through the centre of FaulknerBrowns\u2019 contemporary S-shaped building. A spine of skylights can be seen at every level, from the ground-floor public library and customer services areas to the overlooking offices, and the open-plan, white- and glass-dominated interior makes for a gloriously bright and airy environment, even on the greyest of days.\nNumber One Riverside brings together 1,700 people from 33 different offices, a previous set-up that was not only disjointed for the workforce but confusing and unapproachable for the public. Hence this architecture, explains FaulknerBrowns\u2019 partner Steve McIntyre, needed to promote interaction and engagement. \u201cThe design focuses on the relationship between the public and the council,\u201d he says, \u201cso the employees are always reminded of the people they\u2019re working for, and the public can see the people working on their behalf. It\u2019s very direct and transparent. Still, being a civic building, it had to stay simple, not contrived or corporate.\u201d\nWith this in mind, the facade also had to stay true to its civic values by responding to the character of Rochdale, says McIntyre, referring to the town\u2019s traditional architecture \u2013 the Edwin Lutyens-designed war memorial and Grade II-listed post office by CP Wilkinson \u2013 rather than its uglier modern neighbours, which include one of the council\u2019s previous offices, the aptly named Black Box. The historic buildings are made from Portland stone, and though this looks very similar, it isn\u2019t \u2013 but that\u2019s a taboo subject. \u201cThey [the council] call it stone, but it is beautiful pre-cast concrete, with polished edges on the reveals, so it weathers well. To this day, we\u2019re not allowed to say it\u2019s pre-cast concrete, because of its preconceptions.\u201d The windows decrease in size towards the top, mimicking the language of the town centre\u2019s post office building, while the side elevations have different motivations; glass fins on the south-west side control solar gain, and protruding glass boxes on the north-east side aim to animate the otherwise monotonous lengthy facade.\n\u201cNow when people come in, they talk about civic pride. They say \u2018I bet you didn\u2019t think this was Rochdale\"\nAny publicly funded building, especially one of such scale and budget, is bound to be scrutinised. A local paper proclaimed recently that, if sold, the building would only fetch half the \u00a342.5m shelled out for its construction, but this is exactly the short-term thinking the council and architects were trying to avoid. Uniting the staff, McIntyre says, will save \u00a328m in maintenance costs compared with the stock of previous buildings, and a further \u00a31m a year on energy consumption thanks to the clever inner workings of the BREEAM Excellent-rated structure.\nThen there\u2019s the immeasurable paybacks of being under one roof, such as the increased productivity that comes from employees not having to travel to meetings, and the sharing of ideas that should naturally occur in a more collaborative environment.\nTo bolster this forward-thinking approach, Rochdale has also adopted a new agile working culture. There are 7.5 desks for every 10 employees, a clear desk policy (with a locker for each person) and plenty of touchdown work areas separate to the main workstations. Meeting areas range from informal cafe tables to tree-trunk-like cylindrical pods, some of which stretch through two floors, acting as a landmark on multiple levels of the building. \u201cWhen it was all concrete and white, it was quite hard,\u201d describes McIntyre of the interior, \u201cbut when the pre-fab pods were dropped into place it added a warm quality.\u201d\nMcIntyre is something of a workspace expert, as former chair of the BCO Northern Chapter, and as such, the plan reads as a how-to guide for designing modern, efficient workspace. Rather than a never-ending sea of benches stretched across large floor spans, the desk areas are split across the building\u2019s two parallel S-shaped sides, joined intermittently by bridges. The desks are laid out in sections, so departments (including teams from the NHS, the police and HMRC) can populate their own district. A fully integrated M&E system built into the concrete structure means the office space is unspoilt by the usual heating and cooling mechanisms, with just acoustic dampeners and very simple lighting added to a clean, minimal interior.\nOn each side, supporting columns have been inset 1.5 metres into the floorplate, eliminating the need for an obstructive central column in the middle of the work areas and creating a circulation route on all sides of the districts. This means the inevitable clutter doesn\u2019t build up at the ends of benches, and instead these areas can be used for small meetings or as breakout space.\n\u201cThe biggest hurdle a lot of organisations have is changing people\u2019s perceptions that it\u2019s still working if you\u2019re away from your desks,\u201d says McIntyre. \u201cIf you integrate breakout areas into the work areas, the edges are blurred, so there\u2019s more chance of that happening.\u201d He also believes a new build, as opposed to a revamp, also encourages a more progressive outlook on working practice. \u201cA new building is a huge catalyst for cultural change. It enables things to happen that you couldn\u2019t necessarily do in an existing one; it\u2019s a step change.\u201d\nBeing the keystone project in a huge masterplan development, Number One Riverside now stands as a shiny beacon amid a large building site. To the left of the entrance, past the gushing river Roch, is the brand-new metro link station, and to the right, the bus station, making this an ideal spot for a civic hub. Opposite, the Black Box and a dilapidated car park sit stubbornly between the building and the town centre, but they are due to be flattened as part of a \u00a3100m redevelopment, in which the council\u2019s bold investment was the first domino. It has put Rochdale on the map and, for the most part, restored local optimism. \u201cNow when people come in, they talk about civic pride,\u201d says McIntyre. \u201cThey say \u2018I bet you didn\u2019t think this was Rochdale.\u2019\u201d\nRegional workspaces: Birmingham and the West Midlands",

        "raw_content": "By Charles Wright, MBA\nWhile many businesses struggle to maintain during a recession, it is also a time when many new businesses are started. Whether a startup or an existing business, finding capital \u2014 especially in today\u2019s economic environment \u2014 is often times a very difficult and sometimes disappointing venture. The purpose of this column is to discuss the various options of securing capital by answering questions submitted by readers surrounding the world of business finance.\nQ. As a small business owner, what options are available to secure capital? It seems that the banks aren\u2019t really lending money right now.\nDespite sitting on tons of cash, banking institutions have continued to tighten their lending belt. According to a recent report by the FDIC, outstanding loans to small businesses totaled $609 billion at the end of March, an 8.9 percent drop from a year earlier. A weakened economy filled with uncertainty, along with questionable asset quality and increased reserve requirements, are forcing financial institutions to hold on to their cash despite record low interest rates.\nSo what is an entrepreneur to do?\nThere are several options available for businesses at all stages, from Start-Up to 2nd Stage companies and beyond:\nUnsecured Line of Credit: This program requires a top notch credit profile. Credit scores < 700, utilization < 50% (outstanding balances vs. credit limits), minimal inquiries, and no delinquencies or collections. Funds can be used for any purpose, and in most cases the line does not report to the credit bureau.\nAccount Receivables Financing (or Factoring): This type of financing allows a company to leverage their Account Receivables by selling them at a discount to a 3rd party known as a \u201cFactor\u201d, in exchange for immediate cash.Depending on the size of the receivables, a company can either secure a credit line, or sell each invoice on an invoice by invoice basis. In this method of financing, the emphasis is on the value of the receivables and not the creditworthiness of the company.\nPurchase order and Contract Financing: Whether you are a start-up or a seasoned business, if you have a PO or Contract to deliver and/or perform a service or product, you can leverage these contracts to allow you to fulfill the order. PO and contract finance is short term transaction- based financing that allows companies to purchase or manufacture goods that have been pre-sold. Funding amounts typically include up to 100% of the cost of goods sold, with an emphasis on the company\u2019s ability to perform and the creditworthiness of the client\u2019s end customers.\nMerchant Cash Advance: This type of financing is perfect for businesses that accept Visa and Mastercard. A line of credit is issued based on the average monthly Visa and Mastercard receipts. As this type of financing is not a loan, there are no fixed payments and the cash received is not reported to any credit agencies. The amount accessed is paid back by the lender holding back a small percentage of the businesses daily credit card receipts.\nThere are lenders out there ready and willing to help fund your business \u2013 sometimes it takes a little creativity to figure out what assets are available to leverage and monetize. So if your creditworthy, carry an Accounts Receivables balance, have a Purchase Order or Contract (including Government), or your business accepts Visa and/or Mastercard the answer to your cash flow problems are only a phone call away.\n5 Creative Ways Start-Up Entrepreneurs Can Make Their Dreams A Reality\nBig Dreams FulfilledBe a Leader, Get Involved",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Magazine \u00bb Society \u00bb In Search Of A Lost Home: Sindhis In India Are Struggling To Save Their Language\nIn Search Of A Lost Home: Sindhis In India Are Struggling To Save Their Language\nHaving lost their land of origin, saving their \u00adlanguage is proving tough for Sindhis in India\nArshia Dhar\t05 September 2018\nIdentity Fest\nSindhis in Ajmer celebrate Cheti Chand, the Sindhi New Year\nArshia Dhar\tSeptember 05, 2018 00:00 IST In Search Of A Lost Home: Sindhis In India Are Struggling To Save Their Language\nOn January 24, 1950, the day the Hindi version of the first stanza of a Bengali song composed by Rabindranath Tagore was adopted as India\u2019s national anthem, Dr Rajendra Prasad, the first president, told the Constituent Assembly that it was \u201csubject to such alterations in the words as the government may authorise as occasion arises\u201d. Sixty-eight years later, there\u2019s indeed a debate over one of the words in the anthem\u2014Sindh, a land that no longer belongs to the country. Earlier this year, Ripun Bora, a Congress MP from Assam, moved a private member\u2019s resolution in the Rajya Sabha seeking to replace \u201cSindh\u201d with \u201cNortheast\u201d. But Jaipur-based Bhagwan Atlani, a 73-year-old Sindhi writer and former chairperson of Rajasthan Sindhi Academy, believes it can\u2019t happen. \u201cSindh has been there and it will remain there. Let them shout, nothing will change,\u201d he says.\nAtlani was three in 1948 when a pogrom forced Hindus in Sindh, a state in newly formed Pakistan, to seek refuge in India. His family had to leave their home in uptown Larkana and board a steamer from Karachi. Like thousands of Sindhi families, they ended up at the Kalyan-Ulhasnagar camp on the outskirts of Bombay (now Mumbai) and had to start their lives from scratch. That\u2019s how the Indian population came to include a community that carries the name of a state across the border as one of its many legacies. Relatively untouched\u2014unlike the Bengalis and the Punjabis\u2014by the violence that accompanied Partition, the Sindhi Hindus now found themselves in a country that didn\u2019t include Sindh. Sindhi speakers in India numbered around 25 lakh in 2001, when the population of India was around 100 crore, according to that year\u2019s census.\n\u201cThe community chose to downplay their culture, language and identity after Partition. They would learn the local language of the places they settled in,\u201d says Nandita Bhavnani, author of The Making of Exile: Sindhi Hindus and the Partition of India. Without the hope of ever returning to their homes, they embraced not just the language and traditions of the places they migrated to, but adopted their food habits as well. \u201cWhen I interviewed people whose families settled in Gujarat after Partition, they told me neighbourhood kids would often refuse to play with them as they ate non-vegetarian food. So the families turned vegetarian just to gain social acceptance,\u201d says Bhavnani.\n\u201cWe are \u00adinvited to \u00adperform when others are winning \u00advarious Akademi awards. But we never \u00adreceive them.\u201d\nAnila Sunder, Choreographer\nA linguistic minority, the Sindhis are struggling to hold on to their language as it gradually loses its resonance, and perhaps, even relevance among the youth, who can barely hold a conversation in their native tongue. The government recognises both the Perso-Arabic and Devanagari variants of the Sindhi script. But as the Centre-run Sahitya Akademi recognises only a single script for every Indian language, it\u2019s Perso-Arabic for Sindhi.\n\u201cSo only those who write in the original Perso-Arabic script, which has a standardised vocabulary, qualify for awards,\u201d says Atlani. \u201cA major problem with Sindhi written in Devanagari is there\u2019s no standardisation of the script. Wherever the Sindhis stayed, the local language influenced the pronunciation of Sindhi words, so what I write in Devanagari Sindhi today might be right or wrong\u2014there\u2019s nobody to judge that. And what could be the basis of that judgement?\u201d Consequently, young writers mostly acquainted with the newly minted Devanagari script feel discouraged from \u00adpursuing a career in Sindhi literature due to a lack of state patronage.\nThe language spoken by a community is \u00adintrinsically related to its identity, and for the Sindhis in India, a threat to their native tongue has posed a challenge to the \u00adfundamentals of their existence. With a gradually dwindling population of Sindhi speakers and writers in the country, the current generation experiences a sense of alienation from their roots. A part of this may be attributed to the rapidly disappearing Sindhi medium schools and Sindhi language courses from \u00adinstitutions in India.\n\u201cThe only identity that the Sindhis have in the country today is their language. Whatever else we want to claim would have been claimed before us by the local people of the region we have settled in,\u201d says Sindhi poet Vimmi Sadarangani, a professor of the language at Tolani College of Arts and Science in Adipur, in Gujarat\u2019s Kutch region. Adipur is one of the towns that had been designated to house refugees from Sindh during Partition.\nThe scholar fondly remembers her introduction to the fascinating world of literature in her mother tongue when she was in the eighth standard, and had just moved to a school that offered Sindhi as one of its subjects. After pursuing postgraduation in economics, Sadarangani says she could no longer resist exploring the vast richness of Sindhi literature. \u201cI went on to do an MA and PhD in Sindhi and have been teaching the language for 23 years. But the current generation does not think learning the language is profitable. Of the 550 students in my college, only five have taken up Sindhi,\u201d she says.\nA Sindhi language class in progress at a Mumbai college\nVishu Bellani, professor of Sindhi in Delhi University\u2019s Deshbandhu College, shares this concern over the declining interest in Sindhi. Originally from Ajmer, the 65-year-old is \u00adpreparing to retire, rather reluctantly, from what seems to be the last teaching position for Sindhi in the university, at least for some time to come. \u201cI know how I have singlehandedly managed for 40 years. I hope the university finds a replacement in the next six months so the students aren\u2019t stranded midway like this,\u201d says Bellani.\nThe fact that Sindhis\u2014now one of the most affluent business communities in India\u2014run numerous schools and colleges across India has not prevented their language from facing rejection at premiere institutions. Sindhi writers and artistes have gradually been reduced to one-man shows who self-\u00adpublish and distribute their own work. \u201cWe write, publish, circulate and read our own books. There\u2019s no publisher or bookstore for our books. Can you imagine what that feels like?\u201d says Sadarangani.\n\u201cNothing is being done in Sindhi. Now, people only \u00adperform the very same songs they were singing 30 years ago.\u201d\nKaajal Chandiramani, Mumbai-based singer\n\u201cSufism is inherent in the outlook of the Sindhi community and enables a stoic acceptance of reality,\u201d says Saaz Aggarwal, author of Sindh: Stories from a Vanished Homeland. Their peculiar situation of being foreigners to the land ass\u00adociated with their language has ensured that success in business did not help the Sindhis consolidate the \u00advibrant and age-old legacy of the community in India. \u201cWe were the sacrificial goats during Partition. We could easily have been given three districts from Gujarat, but that never happened. It\u2019s impossible to have a future without land,\u201d says Sahitya Aka\u00addemi awardee Lak\u00adhmi Khi\u00adlani, one of the founders of the Indian Institute of Sind\u00adhology in Adipur. Not a single Sindhi writer has been conferred with the prestigious Jnanpith Award in literature till date.\nThe performing arts have followed suit, with Sindhi cinema, dance and music falling prey to a fast eroding bank of cultural riches. As stories are being written by a handful of budding talents, they need to be adapted into forms that can be performed and not just read, as few in the current generation can follow the script. \u201cWe need to do \u2018cool\u2019 things to get the youth interested in Sindhi culture,\u201d says 21-year-old Dirven Hazari from Ulhasnagar, who runs a YouTube channel named \u2018Sindhionism\u2019 for exclusively Sindhi content. With a growing tribe of followers, currently over 71,000, Hazari\u2019s success crossed a milestone last year when Sindhionism got shortlisted by YouTube as one of its 12 finalists for YouTube NextUp, an annual interactive event conducted by the video-hosting giant that brings together promising content creators.\n\u201cIn 2017 we made the world\u2019s first Sindhi web series called Two Nights Three Days. It\u2019s about the kind of pressure faced by students during exams,\u201d Hazari says. The young YouTuber admits not having any interest in his language and culture until two years ago, when he saw some social media posts accusing the Sindhi youth of being uninterested in their histories.\n\u201cThere are very few with the drive needed to save our culture,\u201d says Mumbai-based Sindhi singer, Kaajal Chandiramani, whose body of work spans over 30 years and more than 10,000 shows. And yet, only a handful in the current generation seem to have heard of her. \u201cNothing is being done in Sindhi now. When I started, there were such good composers, poets and lyricists. Now, people only perform the same songs they were singing 30 years ago. Since nobody knows the language today, the new generation doesn\u2019t even know me. People only want Bollywood songs. They want to dance to \u2018Baby doll main sone di\u2019,\u201d the singer sighs.\n\u201cA Sindhi \u00adtelevision channel is quite \u00adimportant for learning the language and giving the artistes a platform.\u201d\nAsha Chand Entrepreneur\nAdditionally, the performing arts in Sindhi are totally deprived of state patronage in the form of awards. To this day, there\u2019s only the Sindhi Sahitya Akademi, which honours works of literature alone \u201cThe Maharashtra Akademi, the Gujarat Akademi, the Sindhi Akademi or the National Council for Promotion of Sindhi Lan\u00adguage...nobody gives awards to performing artis\u00adtes,\u201d says Anila Sunder, 67-year-old choreographer of Sindhi ballets. \u201cWe are invited to perform when others are winning awards, but we never receive them.\u201d\nAs the global Sindhi citizen from India continues to travel and settle all over the world, the community back home carries on fighting for a secure platform to showcase its legacies. Sindhi entrepreneur Asha Chand has been petitioning for an exclusively Sindhi television channel in India since 2007. \u201cA channel is quite important for learning the language and giving the artistes a platform,\u201d says Chand, who runs the Mumbai- and Dubai-based NGO, Sindhi Sangat. \u201cYou can learn a language only when you speak and hear it. If there\u2019s a programme on a channel, people will pick up Sindhi words from it.\u201d\nAs the government-funded coffers for the Sindhi arts start to run dry, artistes from the community have begun to express their disappointments through their performances. Kishen Ramnani, a 40-year-old theatre actor from Ulhasnagar, has been associated with the stage for over two decades. He says one is compelled to pursue Sindhi theatre as their passion, and not profession, as the stage provided by the state isn\u2019t enough to sustain them. \u201cWhere is the stage? Where is the support? That is what we ask in our upcoming video,\u201d says Ramnani.\nJeetu Vazirani, a Sindhi actor often spotted in Hindi shows like C.I.D. and in minor roles in films such as Om Jai Jagadish, shares the sentiments of fellow artistes from his community. Having worked in five Sindhi films and around 15 Sindhi telefilms produced by Asha Chand, Vazirani believes acting in his mother tongue has been an effective launchpad for his career in the Hindi entertainment industry. \u201cHindi serials are my bread and butter, but Sindhi actors are gradually gaining a footing in India, especially in the past 10 years. We won\u2019t stop working until we are able to fully sustain ourselves by doing work only in Sindhi,\u201d says the artiste. Sindhi films in India are mired in funding and distribution issues, as no theatre can guarantee them a profitable run.\n\u201cIt\u2019s unfortunate that most Sindhi youngsters don\u2019t speak the language anymore. It\u2019s difficult to convert Sindhis into a linguistic majority,\u201d says veteran lawyer and politician Ram Jethmalani. One may have been tempted to use the word \u201cimpossible\u201d in such a situation, but for a community of iron-willed survivors like the Sindhis of India, a difficult feat is perhaps never too impossible to achieve.\nArshia Dhar\tCommunities\tLanguages\tPartition 1947\tSociety\nNext Story : Welcome To Gangtok, The Las Vegas Of India\nMore From Arshia Dhar\nPashmina\u2019s Purple Patch: Youngsters Are Flocking Home To Revitalise Weaves Of Ladakh\nAfter pursuing higher education in metropolises across the country, many...\nA Large Part Of The Folk Repertoire May Be Lost For Ever: Shubha Mudgal\nRenowned Hindustani classical vocalist Shubha Mudgal talks about folk music and...\nRepublic Of India: A Danse Penumbral\nLeave aside the Constitution, the hardware of the State.

Scott Walker from office.\n\u201cWe\u2019re teachers in the area and this election is very important to us,\u201d Bliss told one voter on the front steps of a house.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t even have to talk,\u201d the older woman at the door replied. \u201cWe\u2019re the choir you\u2019re preaching to.\u201d\nBliss, who teaches in Fort Atkinson, wrote down the answer and marched back to the sidewalk, where autumn leaves crunched underfoot. For her \u2013 and hundreds of other Wisconsin teachers \u2013 booting Walker from the Capitol has been a priority.\n\u201cIf Scott Walker wins re-election, he will keep his current policies and put them on steroids,\u201d Bliss said as she walked to the next house. \u201cThat\u2019s not acceptable to me.\u201d\nIt\u2019s a scene playing out across the country, as fed-up teachers are working to oust Republican governors.\nWalker is the chief target, but Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett face similar, educator-led campaigns against them. Those first-term Republicans all took steps to stabilize state budgets with dramatic shifts in how many tax dollars go to schools and teachers.\nNow, the teachers want to stop them in their tracks.\nThe 1.6 million-member American Federation of Teachers plans to spend $20 million on this year\u2019s elections \u2013 a record for it. The 3 million-member National Education Association has sent almost $8 million to political allies such as the Democratic Governors Association.\nWalker defends his moves, saying they saved taxpayers $3 billion and allowed school districts, city and county governments to hire \u2013 and fire \u2013 employees without worrying about union contracts or benefits. Walker won praise from administrators; Milwaukee\u2019s public schools slashed more than $1 billion off its long-term pension obligations.\n\u201cIt\u2019s about empowering people to do what they were elected to do,\u201d Walker said. \u201cInstead of worrying about grievances, they can focus on curriculum.\u201d\nIt isn\u2019t swaying the teachers. Like most residents in this highly polarized state, few lack for an opinion of Walker.\n\u201cIf Scott Walker wins another term, he will rule with a machete,\u201d said Kelly Sullivan, a high school teacher in Monona Grove.\nSullivan\u2019s frustration with Walker\u2019s policies moved the 39-year-old mother of three from a ho-hum voter to one of the first people to sign up to volunteer.\n\u201cHe\u2019s not interested in us,\u201d Sullivan said. \u201cWe\u2019re just pawns in his plans to get to Washington, D.C.\u201d\nWalker\u2019s presidential ambitions drive much of national unions\u2019 interest in Wisconsin. He became a national figure when he rolled back workers\u2019 collective bargaining rights and balanced his state\u2019s budget with deep cuts, including to schools. Other governors took notice and started down a similar path.\n\u201cHe\u2019s an icon for the right,\u201d said Marty Horning, a 61-year-old retired Milwaukee teacher who led a voter-registration drive during recent parent-teacher conferences. \u201cThey\u2019re going to do whatever it takes to help his career.\u201d\nSpending on the Wisconsin governor\u2019s race now tops $18 million, according to an analysis from the nonpartisan Center for Public Integrity. Spending on ads slightly favors Walker in his race against Democratic nominee Mary Burke, a former Trek Bicycle executive and a school board member in Madison.\nThat\u2019s why teachers are mobilizing, hoping to persuade voters to support Burke.\nEducation is typically one of those issues that voters say they care about, but they seldom cast ballots driven by the subject. But this year, schools have roared to the forefront in a handful of races.\nNowhere is that more evident than Wisconsin.\nThe left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities recently reviewed changes in per-student spending since the economic recession in 2008. Wisconsin had the second-biggest cut, adjusted for inflation, with each student receiving $1,000 less than in 2008.\nWalker was elected in 2010 and almost immediately started cutting budgets \u2013 and unions\u2019 power. He\u2019s been a target since, becoming in 2012 the first governor to survive a recall attempt. That doesn\u2019t mean teachers have given up.\nTake Rachel Meyer, a 55-year-old special education teacher in Merton, Wisconsin. On a recent Saturday, she helped Milwaukee teachers go door to door to remind likely supporters of the stakes.\n\u201cThese kids deserve better. With the governor we have, they\u2019re not going to get it,\u201d said Meyer, who has seen her teaching assistants downgraded to part-time workers without benefits.\nIt\u2019s a similar complaint from Bliss, the 50-year-old art teacher who dedicated her Saturday to knocking on doors in Madison. In her school, she\u2019s seen class sizes increase from about 20 students to 29 in recent years. She has scrapped some lessons and traded in pricey supplies for cheap paper plates during others.\n\u201cI don\u2019t expect to change anyone\u2019s mind at this point,\u201d Bliss said as she flipped through her clipboard looking for the next door to visit. \u201cIt\u2019s about getting our allies to vote.\u201d\nLeft: Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin speaking at the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in National Harbor, Maryland.

        "raw_content": "Developing-market Carriers Call for Sub-$50 Smartphone\nAirtel's Profits Continue to Be Weighed Down by Africa, 3G\nVisa Introduces Mobile Payments for Emerging Markets\nExecutives of mobile operators that serve developing countries called on the GSM Association on Tuesday to kickstart the development of a sub-US$50 smartphone.\nSmartphones are falling in price, but the cost of smartphones is the main barrier to wide adoption of mobile broadband in poorer regions of the world, three executives said in a keynote session devoted to developing markets.\nThe leaders of carriers that operate in Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe and Latin America said the GSMA, which represents network operators, should reprise its 2006 call for proposals for a sub-$30 GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) phone. Its Emerging Market Handset initiative led to two Motorola handsets that exceeded the group's expectations, as operators in developing countries quickly ordered more than 12 million units.\nAffordable smartphones could have a big impact on poor countries, some of which don't have wired Internet services for most of the population. A smartphone would be the first Internet access device for many consumers, said Sunil Bharti Mittal, founder, chairman and CEO of India's Bharti Enterprises, which operates Bharti Airtel in 19 Asian and African countries.\nBharti sees the mobile Internet helping rural residents in India in many areas of life, including health care.\n\"The difficulty that we will have for the next model will be how to provide very inexpensive smartphones in the country,\" Bharti said. Less than 5 percent of handsets in India are smartphones, and the percentage is even less in Africa, he said.\nSome operators in the developing world have talked about the idea of a tender for 100 million smartphones priced at less than $50, \"with all the bells and whistles,\" Bharti said.\n\"The big bottleneck is the affordability of the handsets,\" said Santiago Fernandez Valbuena, chairman and CEO of Telefonica Latin America. Jo Lunder, CEO of Vimpelcom, also said handset cost will be the key factor in driving mobile Internet use. Vimpelcom owns mobile carriers in 17 developing markets in Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe, Once consumers have good devices for using the Internet, average revenue per user will go up, taking care of the carriers' business model, the executives said. Networks and radio spectrum are not a big issue, except in some countries where governments have fumbled the allocation of spectrum, they said.\nBharti emphasized that access to the mobile Internet could have a big impact on developing countries.\n\"Broadband, which is a game changer for Europe and America, is a life changer for my countries,\" he said.",

        "raw_content": "Celebrating Chvezs dream and vision\nIn California, the state government will shut down April 1 in tribute to C\u00e9sar E. Ch\u00e1vez, the late founder and president of the United Farm Workers (UFW), AFL-CIO. This will mark the second celebration of the official paid state holiday signed into law by Gov. Gray Davis on Aug. 18, 2000. Over 100,000 state workers will receive a paid holiday and children in public schools will participate in a day of service and learning in Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s honor.\nMembers of Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s family and UFW members will address student assemblies and visit classrooms across the state. Children will learn about how joining a union empowered farmworkers. They will learn about strikes and picketlines used when growers refused to give workers basic rights to living wages and decent working conditions.\nMassive public events are also planned in cities throughout California. On March 24, an expected fifteen thousand people will participate in a multiracial parade and rally in San Francisco. Marches held in Los Angeles on April 6 and in San Diego, San Jose, San Fernando and Sacramento \u2013 the state capital \u2013 will also draw thousands.\nIn 1984, Ch\u00e1vez said, \u201cAll my life, I have been driven by one dream, one goal, one vision: To overthrow a farm labor system in this nation which treats farm workers as if they were not important human beings. Farm workers are not agricultural implements. They are not beasts of burden \u2013 to be used and discarded. I hope to see my people treated as human beings and not as chattel.\u201d\nHe gave his life\u2019s blood to that vision and was tireless in his mission to win economic and social justice for those who toil in the fields of our nation. That devotion captured the hearts of millions of Americans who joined him and the UFW. They marched, boycotted, picketed and fasted to win union contracts, to protest pesticides in the fields, to establish child labor laws and win decent living conditions, immigrant rights and dignity for farm workers.\nThat legacy lives on today; the \u00a1Si Se Puede! movement continues to inspire across America. Like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s courage and tenacity are referred to often by today\u2019s labor, civil rights and social justice fighters. That legacy is why celebrations of his birthday, March 31, are growing across the country.\nWhile California is the only state that has adopted an official paid holiday, Texas and Colorado have passed legislation for commemorative holidays where state workers may select Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s birthday as an optional holiday. The state of Arizona has passed a commemorative holiday as well.\nIn Colorado, the holiday movement is upping the ante by attempting to put a paid official Chavez holiday on the upcoming November ballot where voters will have an opportunity to vote for and pass it. A bill, SB-53, calling for this must be passed by the legislature before the session ends in May in order to put the holiday measure on the ballot. A labor/community coalition in New Mexico already succeeded in doing just that in their state. An amendment to the state Constitution will appear on their November ballot which, if passed by voters will establish an official paid holiday there.\nSignificant public events for Chavez\u2019s birthday are organized in those states which have won holidays, including huge marches in San Antonio, Texas, and Albuquerque, New Mexico.\nCities throughout the nation will join in celebrations for Chavez\u2019s birthday, including events in Illinois, Missouri, Massachusetts, Oregon, Washington and even Providence, Rhode Island, where the Federation of Mexican organizations in New England will hold an event at the State House. In Michigan, Chavez supporters are lobbying for passage of a holiday bill in their state.\nAnother dimension to this movement is that unionists are including Chavez birthday holidays in their contract demands.\nThis year a national petition drive to make Chavez\u2019s birthday an official federal holiday is also commencing. The petition calls for national legislation modeled after the California holiday. The goal is for the petition drive to be the basis for forming grassroots committees in cities throughout the nation.\nMuch of the success of the California holiday campaign was due to the efforts of thousands of individuals at the grassroots. They formed local committees and collected postcards and signatures on petitions in their neighborhoods, schools, work places, churches and at public events. They guaranteed turnout at street heat actions \u2013 rallies, press conferences, human billboards and picketlines. This, along with a strong labor/community coalition, was the basis of victory. Coalition and grassroots organizing will also be basic components of the national campaign.\nWinning the first national holiday for a Latino and labor leader in our nation will not be easy. But it is a just cause that will raise the bar for labor rights, multiracial unity and equality across our country. Cesar E. Chavez deserves this holiday and we won\u2019t stop until he gets it. We remember his dream and vision. We are on the road. \u00a1Si Se Puede!\nFor more information on how to join the National Cesar E. Chavez Holiday Campaign, contact Evelina Alarcon at EvnAlarcon@aol.com or write: Evelina Alarcon, National Coordinator, Cesar Chavez National Holiday Campaign, c/o United Farm Workers, 5313 E.

        "raw_content": "The British Medical Journal recently published a study indicating that women who had a higher dietary intake of calcium exceeding 1400mg/day and also used supplements had a higher all-cause and cardiovascular death rate compared to those not taking supplements. However, Taylor Wallace, Ph.D, senior director, scientific regulatory affairs for the Council for Responsible Nutrition released a statement condemning the study saying it \u201cdid not demonstrate a cause and effect relationship between calcium and heart health or all-cause mortality\u201d. She goes on to say that there are specific flaws within the study and its methodology. She also says, \u201cit did not adjust for the role of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and since science has gone back and forth as to whether HRT helps or hurts the heart, the jury is out as to how this might influence the findings.\u201d\nDespite the research findings, we know calcium is essential. While consumers should be aware of how much calcium they are getting from both food and supplementation, too little calcium is an undisputed health risk. With PERQUE products, healthcare providers and patients alike can rest assure that calcium overdose is never an issue. Our calcium-rich products such as PERQUE Bone Guard Fort\u00e9 20 and the PERQUE Life Guard family include an essential balance of minerals and nutrients that synergistically promote comprehensive wellbeing rather than an over abundance of a single nutrient or mineral that may overwhelm the body.\nIf you or your patients are concerned about calcium supplements, contact PERQUE Integrative Health today and learn more about why PERQUE products are better, safer, and one step ahead all of the rest.",

        "raw_content": "Posted on November 17, 2015 by Paul Thurrott in Security\nHaving famously halted development of its major products over a decade ago so it could usher in a new age of Trustworthy Computing, Microsoft this week said it was changing tactics again. And this time around, it\u2019s shifting its security focus to focus on what it calls the mobile first, cloud first world.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t think of security as being a separate piece of technology,\u201d Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said during an appearance at the Microsoft Government Cloud Forum in Washington D.C. this morning. \u201cIt has to be core to the operational systems that you use, where your data resides, where your most critical applications usage is.\u201d\nNoting that Microsoft already invests over $1 billion in security research and development each year, Nadella said that his firm was building a new Cyber Defense Operations Center, a state-of-the-art facility that will be manned by security experts \u201c24 x 7\u201d who are tasked with responding to security threats in real-time.\nAdditionally, Microsoft is establishing an Enterprise Cybersecurity Group (ECG), which will work across Microsoft\u2019s product divisions to help the enterprise modernize and better protect their IT infrastructure.\nAs you might imagine, Nadella also took some time to explain how Microsoft\u2019s latest products, like Windows 10, Office 365, Microsoft Azure, and Microsoft Enterprise Mobility Suite (EMS), work together to deliver a more secure computing environment.\nWindows 10, for example, provides biometric security access with its Windows Hello and Windows Passport technologies, plus Credential Guard for protection from so-called \u201cpass the hash\u201d attacks, which had been so successful in the past in helping attackers gain the access rights of users. And Windows 10\u2019s Device Guard helps prevent the installation of untrusted or malicious code using a combination of hardware and software protections.\nA similar feature in Office 365, called Advanced Threat Protection, helps protect users from inadvertently downloading and installing malicious software. And Microsoft is bringing Advanced eDiscovery to Office 365, too, helping to reduce the costs and time associated with sorting through large quantities of data for eDiscovery purposes.\nEMS extends the security protections from Windows to other mobile platforms such as Android and iOS, and lets enterprises manage these devices from a single location. \u201cToday we started rolling out support for mobile application management without the need to enroll the device,\u201d Mr. Nadella wrote in a blog post. \u201cWe are also excited to announce that Box and Adobe will offer new Microsoft Intune native apps on iOS and Android to help prevent accidental sharing of confidential corporate data to personal locations or cloud services.\u201d\n\u201cI firmly believe that security is a journey and not a destination,\u201d Nadella concludes. \u201cIt\u2019s also an issue that must be addressed holistically by the industry and not by a single vendor. It\u2019s only by working closely with our partners, the security ecosystem and governments around the world, that we can ensure consumers and businesses are able to trust the technology they use and don\u2019t view security as a barrier to technology adoption.\u201d\nYou can watch a replay of Satya Nadella\u2019s keynote on the Microsoft Enterprise Security web site.",

        "raw_content": "American Airlines aims for July switchover of US Airways system\nAmerican Airlines is hoping to port over US Airways' reservation systems during a three-month period that is expected to start in July.\nAmerican uses Sabre, one of three major global distribution systems, for its passenger reservations and ticket data. Last year the two companies formally agreed to have the merged airline use Sabre as its passenger service system (PSS).\nAbout 11,000 US Airways employees will be trained on the Sabre system in rotating six-week programs. US Airways staff can opt to use a graphical interface for Sabre's system that looks a lot like the system they've been using, Shares, according to a press conference.\nAround July, American will stop selling flights labeled as US Airways for departures more than 90 days ahead. The flights will only appear in the \"new\" Sabre system.\nA consumer attempting to book a flight that is, say, five months ahead, won't be able to do it via US Airways' website or agents. They'll be directed to American's channels. At the airport, self-service kiosks at US Airways airport check-in counters will be on the American interface.\nThe idea is to drain short-term flights out of the system.\nMaya Leibman, chief information officer (CIO), told a press conference that she expects only 10% of all US Airways bookings, and 4% of all reservations combined, will be left on the final cutover day to the Sabre system.\nThe hope is to finish the cutover by October, when the US Airways brand is slated to vanish from consumers' eyes, though American will continue repainting aircraft through early next year. The frequent flier program data has already been merged.\nAmerican aspires to dodge the reservation system snafus that battered United Airlines after it cut over to the systems of its merger partner Continental a few years ago and it lost any ability to do transactions.\nIBM is consulting for the airline on the cutover.\nLeibman, who comes from a management rather than a technology background, said:\n\"I've worked in technology long enough to know not to give any specific dates, because when you don't necessarily meet that date for a good reason, it looks like a failure to the outside world.\"",

        "raw_content": "Phoenix Residents Can Claim Self-Defense And Defense Of Others In Cases Involving Violent Crimes\nThis is my fourth post in my series on how Phoenix residents can defend against violent crime allegations in Arizona. My last post discussed ways to suppress eyewitness identifications in court. Suppressing identification is a crucial issue in many cases involving an act of violence. This post is concerned with asserting your right to self-defense and defense of others. It cannot be stressed enough that if you are charged with a violent offense should contact a criminal defense lawyer immediately.\nPhoenix defendants may obtain a \u201cnot guilty\u201d verdict if they were acting in self defense\nYour right to self-defense and defense of others is fundamental and recognized by the state of Arizona. This right is not without limits. If you did not instigate a physical altercation then you may use force in response to an immediate and credible threat of violence. You may not use physical force in response to words alone. This means, if someone insults you (or someone else) then you may not punch them in response. For example, if someone calls you names, denigrates your family or otherwise shouts, yells, or heckles you then you do not have the right to assault them. You must have a reasonable belief that they are going to use physical force against you. Of course, if they have already used physical force against you then you may respond proportionally to defend yourself. Proportionality means if someone punches you in the mouth, you are not authorized to stab them in the gut.\nDuring a Phoenix-area jury trial your lawyer will cross-examine the other party involved and attempt to show that you were required to use force to prevent greater harm. For example, if your accuser is a friend and claims that while the two of you were at a bar, out of nowhere you swung a bottle at his head, hitting him, your lawyer will ask him a series of questions. These questions will include how much he had to drink, why you were at the bar, how long you have known each other and whether or not he has any history of violence and whether or not you slept with his wife. If your friend was angry with you and had a reason to try to harm you, your claim that he was the initial aggressor is stronger.\nAn experienced violent crimes attorney can help you establish your self-defense claim\nYour counsel will interview any witnesses to the fight, gather police reports, visit the scene, review any medical records and collect and evaluate any audio or video recordings. Additionally, your lawyer will review your accuser\u2019s history and discover if any witnesses are aware of his propensity towards violence. Armed with all the information, a skilled criminal defense lawyer can craft cross-examination questions designed to bring out the motives of your accuser and an motives and demonstrate that the events unfolded differently that your accuser stated.\nEvery case has unique issues and it is important to have experience on your side. It can be overwhelming to face charges of violence in court, especially in a state like Arizona. Contact my office today for a consultation with a Phoenix criminal defense attorney. I also handle cases in the Maricopa County cities of Mesa, Glendale, Scottsdale, Chandler, and Gilbert as well as Pima County residents in Tucson.",

        "raw_content": "New EU VAT rules simplifying e-commerce adopted\nOn 5 December 2017, the European Council adopted new rules making it easier for online businesses to comply with EU VAT obligations. The rules will facilitate the collection of VAT for businesses that sell goods and services online to consumers.\nThe new rules extend an existing EU-wide portal (the mini 'one-stop shop' = MOSS) for the VAT registration of distance sales. In addition they establish a new portal for distance sales from third countries with a value below \u20ac150. VAT will be paid in the member state of the consumer, ensuring a fairer distribution of tax revenues amongst member states. Additionally, online platforms will be made liable for collecting VAT on the distance sales that they facilitate, this includes sales of goods that are already being stored by non-EU companies in warehouses. Most goods that are imported for distance sales currently enter the EU VAT-free, resulting in unfair competition for EU businesses. Online platforms will be liable for collecting VAT on the distance sales they facilitate through their platform.\nFor start-ups and SMEs, the new rules introduce an important simplification. Below \u20ac10 000 in yearly cross-border online sales, a business will be able to continue applying VAT rules used in its home country.\nFurthermore, the new rules remove the exemption for consignments from outside the EU worth less than \u20ac22. Around 150 million small consignments are imported free of VAT, and the current system is open to abuse. Whilst EU businesses have to apply VAT regardless of the value of the goods sold, imported goods benefit from the exemption and are often undervalued in order to do so.\nThe timeline will be as follows:\nby 2019 Simplify VAT rules for start-ups, micro-businesses and SMEs selling goods to consumers online in other EU Member States. VAT on cross-border sales under \u20ac10,000 a year will be handled according to the rules of the home country of the smallest businesses, giving a boost to 430 000 businesses across the EU. SMEs will benefit from simpler procedures for cross-border sales of up to \u20ac100,000 annually.\nBy 2019 of simplification measures for intra-EU sales of electronic services.\nby 2021 the extension of the one-stop shop to distance sales of goods, both intra-EU and from third countries (meaning that they do not need to register in all EU Member States where they sell to consumers),\nby 2012 the elimination of the VAT exemption for small value imports (euro 22).\nSource: European Commission & European Council",

A good time is guaranteed!\nAbout Pink Ribbon Advocacy\nA group of friends from the Rice Lake (WI) Curling Club created CURL FOR A CURE as their attempt to \u201cdo what they could\u201d to help in the fight against breast cancer. The first Curl for a Cure was held in October of 2002 and it far exceeded their expectations, raising over $13,000. Because no avenue existed to use this money to assist local breast cancer patients, the money was donated to The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. The second Curl for a Cure was even more successful, and most of those funds went to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.\nThe group still wanted to help local breast cancer patients with this fundraiser, and Pink Ribbon Advocacy, Inc. (PRA) was created. With residual funds from Curl for a Cure #2 and a generous grant from 3M Corporation, Articles of Incorporation were drawn up and filed, and a Board of Directors was established. Pink Ribbon Advocacy, Inc. was granted 501 (c) 3 Charitable Organization status. With funds from a wildly-successful Curl for a Cure #3 in 2004, PRA was ready to begin helping women in Barron County with uninsured mammogram expenses and incidental expenses associated with receiving breast cancer treatment.\nPink Ribbon Advocacy, Inc. is a true grass-roots organization. As we have no office location nor any employees (thus none of the expenses), phone calls go to a voice-mail system and are responded to by board members, mail goes to our treasurer's house. Information is shared among the board members via email, and meetings are held on an as-needed basis.

        "title": "What Is a Health Insurance Deductible?",
        "raw_content": "Learn more about how health insurance deductibles work.\nThe best health insurance company for you depends on two things: your budget and your preferences.\nAll health insurance companies and plans are federally mandated by the Affordable Care Act to cover ten essential benefits, which include preventative care, emergency services, and hospitalization. All health insurance companies and plans are also required to adhere to the same consumer protections, also laid out by the Affordable Care Act. This means that you can trust that each health insurance company is held to the same standard, making it much easier to compare on price and individual preference.\nWhen comparing health insurance plans, many people look at the base monthly price only. This monthly cost, called the premium, only represents one of the expenses that contributes to how much you'll spend on health care in a given month.\nOther expenses, like your health insurance plan's deductible and the copay and coinsurance costs, directly contribute to how much you'll be spending overall on health care. Typically, a plan with a lower monthly premium will have a higher deductible, copay, and coinsurance percentage, which increases the amount you'll spend out-of-pocket for health care services.\nWhen choosing a health insurance company, make sure to look closely at these costs. If you plan on utilizing your health insurance plan frequently \u2013 because you're managing a chronic condition or otherwise \u2013 the least expensive plan may not be the plan with the lowest monthly premium.\nThe other thing to consider when choosing a health insurance company and plan are your preferences when it comes to doctors and prescription. Are there certain doctors you want to make sure are in your plan's network? Particular prescriptions? Plans that cover doctors and prescriptions you need may be more valuable to you than plans that don't.",

Among those earning minimum wage or below, more than half are over the age of 25 and earning entry-level wages for entry-level work like cashiers and waiters.View Source\nIn response to this stagnation, many workers unions and politicians are calling for a 15 dollar an hour minimum wage.View Source\nAccording to the Congressional Budget Office, increasing the federal minimum wage from $7.25 an hour, to $10.10 per hour would cost about 500,000 jobs.View Source\nThere will be 2.5 million of these middle-skill job openings by 2017.

But most businesses in America are not large corporations. 99.7 percent of all U.S. firms are small businesses.View Source\nBusinesses don\u2019t have infinite stores of cash to pay workers. They will react to forced wage increases by decreasing the number of hours worked, firing more, and hiring less.View Source\nBusinesses could also respond by raising prices. Raising prices only hurts the supposed beneficiaries of the minimum wage increase.View Source\nAccording to economist James Sherk, a $15.00 an hour minimum wage requires workers to generate $38,700 a year in value for an employer. This is a high target for new and inexperienced workers, and businesses will not hire at a loss.View Source\nWATCH: A study on Seattle's minimum wage hike shows $100M a year in lost payroll for low earners \u2013 Business InsiderView Source\nInstead of concentrating on raising the floor for low-skilled jobs, we should focus on raising the ceiling of what people can make.\nThe modern economy is rapidly changing with technology driving growth.

When workers increase their value, employers can increase their pay.View Source\nWhen the minimum wage is increased, it requires entry level workers to generate more value than they previously had to for employers, raising the barrier to entry. This makes it more difficult for new workers to gain experience.View Source\nThe real gap in the country is not a wage gap but a skills gap. To get better paying jobs, workers must accrue experience and training.\nLow paying, low skill jobs teach employees important \u201csoft skills\u201d, such as dependability, accountability and cooperation.View Source\nIf Democrats and Republicans can agree on anything, it\u2019s stagnating wages. Median family income dropped from $57,790 in 2000 to $56,516 in 2015.\nTo address the problems, some have pushed to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour. But only 1.7 percent of the 77 million hourly employees even earn the minimum wage, and just 395,000 are over the age of 25 and earning entry-level wages for entry-level work like cashiers and waiters.\nWhat activists don\u2019t tell you is that raising the entry-level wage increases labor costs for small business owners making it harder for them to keep employees, and hire new ones. This makes it harder for younger employees to gain the skills they need to climb the career ladder, and earn much higher incomes.\nInstead of concentrating on raising the floor for low-skilled jobs, we should be focusing on helping people get the skills to raise the ceiling of what people can make. The real fight should be for true middle-class jobs that earn $50,000 or more a year, what we call the Fight for 50. These jobs allow people to save more money, and better support their families.\nThere are going to be 2.5 million of these middle-skill job openings next year. These career opportunities require more than a high school degree, but less than a four-year college degree, boasting an average salary of $50,000 per year. These jobs include automotive technicians, nurses, and plumbers.\nWhile entry-level employees don\u2019t have the necessary skills to succeed right away in higher-paying roles, they often learn them quickly. One of our most famous politicians started out by scooping ice cream at a Baskin Robbins, and made it all the way to the Oval Office in the White House.\nIn other words, the entry-level wage should be thought of as a training wage, which employees with few skills can use to prepare for a $50,000 a year, or more, career. Let\u2019s raise wages by putting Americans back to work, and fighting for $50,000.",

I was placed in Ad-Seg in 2002 for corresponding with other prisoners in another unit who were already confirmed. I got out of prison in 2004, and have just recently come back this past year, and once again I find myself placed in Ad-Seg even though I am not part of a gang. I have tried to write to the gang officers and even wrote a history report about my association in the past. I was told I would go to a G.R.A.D. program that's designed for ex-gang-members. I have yet to hear anything.\nDuring this time in Ad-Seg, we are supposed to receive an hour of exercise (recreation) per day. Well I have been here on this unit going on 6 months and have been to recreation only twice. I have written a Step 1 grievance only to be told that they would get to us when staff permitted. They claim to be under-staffed. But general population gets their daily recreation, and they have enough staff to allow them to shake our cells down every other day during showers. There are other units that are really under-staffed, yet their Ad-Seg blocks receive their hour of recreation. It's sad because some of us need the exercise for medical reasons, and all of us need it for mental issues. Constantly in the cell all day every day is really a mind battle and a severe health issue.\nMIM(Prisons) responds: In Under Lock & Key 41 we published many accounts of gang validation being used as a tool of social control. The STG designation is held over the heads of prisoners who are often among the most politically active, and then used as an excuse to isolate them from others. It is irrelevant to the prison administration whether or not these \"confirmed\" people actually affiliate with a criminal organization. And in some places, working with MIM(Prisons) is considered criteria for classifying people as a security threat. We publish accounts like this one to demonstrate the ongoing conditions of torture in these isolation programs, and the arbitrary use of the STG label. But in reality we do not trust the criminal injustice system to decide who is a threat to security; the biggest security threats are running the Amerikan government and its military and prison systems.\nFollowing Policies or Following Whims?",

        "raw_content": "Why Your Social Security Disability Isn\u2019t Enough\nMany people mistakenly assume that in the event they were to become disabled and unable to work, their incomes would be protected by Social Security Disability benefits. Unfortunately, the truth is often far different from what people expect. Although there is a disability program in place, there is a long\nwait for benefits, as well as tight restrictions. Additionally, the amount of money people receive from the Social Security Administration is, in many cases, not enough.\nMany people find themselves without income for years before receiving benefits. Disability insurance provides the means to continue receiving a good portion of your income in the event you are unable to continue working due to a disability. But why isn\u2019t Social Security Disability enough? Why do you need disability insurance?\nBut I Won\u2019t Become Disabled\u2026\nYou may consider yourself at very little risk of ever becoming disabled; however, consider this: The Social Security Administration reports that a 20-year-old worker has a 30% chance of becoming disabled before reaching retirement!\nIf you were to become disabled, and if you were to be approved and you began receiving disability payments, would it be enough to protect your income? Not likely. The average monthly benefit for a disabled worker is only $1,165.23. If your current income is higher than this amount, you\u2019ll be taking a loss right off the bat if you had only Social Security disability to rely on. Let\u2019s not forget, also, to factor in the months or years without any income at all during the time you applied for and waited (and maybe were rejected and appealed) for benefits. By the time your $1,165.23 monthly payments started coming in, your finances could easily be in the red by tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.\nSocial Security Disability is not Guaranteed\nIf you have a severe injury or disability that doesn\u2019t meet Social Security\u2019s guidelines for qualifying for benefits, how are you going to be able to protect your income, yourself, and your family? It\u2019s never safe to assume that you will qualify for Disability benefits, and it also isn\u2019t safe to assume that if you do qualify, that it will be enough to sustain your household.\nWhat about Workers\u2019 Compensation?\nAlthough workers\u2019 compensation is mandatory in every state, it covers injuries sustained on the job only. If you are injured anywhere other than at work or you fall ill, this coverage wouldn\u2019t apply to you. Most employers do also offer a limited group disability insurance policy, but it still might not provide enough protection to prevent financial devastation.\nThe Solution: Disability Insurance\nThink of disability insurance as paycheck protection! If you have own-occupation disability insurance, you could receive monthly benefits to cover most, if not all, of your income. Without a paycheck, bills will add up very quickly, medical expenses will mount in a short amount of time, and it will be difficult to buy groceries, fuel and other items to sustain your daily activities. Disability insurance is a monetary cushion that is designed to keep you from suffering from financial ruin \u2013 which is of the utmost importance, especially when medical issues pertaining to a disability are often more than stressful enough. Even if your family has two (or more) paychecks from work coming in, the loss of one of them can become crippling very quickly. There are many options available, and we\u2019re here to help answer your questions and address your concerns. When considering disability insurance, be sure to review all of your options and compare plans, benefits and premiums. At ProtectYourIncome.com, we can provide you with quotes from multiple A-rated companies. Get started now to protect you and your family.",

He identifies as a gay male who considers himself genderqueer in the sense that his gender identity and expression transcends the gender binary of the social construct of what defines a male or a female. He grew up in Connecticut, has recently relocated to Boston, and currently looking for employment in the social services/non-profit sector.\nHung Dinh is an alumnus of the University of Connecticut, School of Social Work, receiving a Master\u2019s in Social Work. His concentration is in Groupwork with a substantive area of focus in Social Work with Women and Children in Families. During his time there he was the chair of the PRIDE committee where he advocated and brought awareness to LGBT issues to the school. He has a Bachelor\u2019s degree from the University of Connecticut, majoring in Urban and Community Studies with a minor in Sociology.\nHung draws influence for QAPA's upcoming Speak Out discussion group from his experiences growing up a gay Asian and having a gender identity that does not conform to social norms and experiencing a lack of community within the Queer Asian community. There is potential to bring about mutual support and empowerment when marginalized and disenfranchised groups can come together to discuss issues and topics that are relevant to our lives and experiences and work through this as a community.\nWe're lucky to have him as a new steering committee member and look forward to his events!\nnewsmeemster August 22, 2010 steeringComment",

Lee\nThe Graphic History of the Civil War's Greatest Rivals During the Last Year of the War\nAuthor: Wayne Vansant\nSeries: Zenith Graphic Histories\nGrant vs. Lee tells the dramatic story of the final year of the Civil War in Virginia - a bloody and unyielding fight for both sides - through the eyes of the two greatest Civil War generals: the North's Ulysses S. Grant and the South's Robert E. Lee. The long and violent campaigns that took place from 1864-1865 (the Overland Campaign, Petersburg Campaign, and Appomattox Campaign) represent the beginning of modern warfare. By this point of the war, both sides employed seasoned and hardened soldiers who looked past the Victorian sensibilities of the gentleman soldier and understood that there would be no falling back. By the end of 1864, both sides built trenches and mounted attacks to break each other's lines. There was a stalemate that winter. Grant's forces had superior numbers and supplies and by March 1865 they pushed Lee's army out of the trenches at Petersburg and took Richmond, the Confederate capital. Lee's dwindling forces retreated west, looking for food and other Southern forces to help continue the fight. After a bitter final battle at Sailor's Creek, Lee's army was surrounded by Union forces at Appomattox Court House. On April 9, 1865, Lee surrendered to Grant and the Civil War was over. Beautifully illustrated and vastly researched, Grant vs. Lee is a dramatic, illustrated introduction to one of the most pivotal years in American history.\nWriter and artist Wayne Vansant was the primary artist for Marvel's The 'Nam for more than five years. Since then, he has written and illustrated many historically accurate graphic histories, such as The Hammer and the Anvil; The Vietnam War: A Graphic History; Normandy: A Graphic History of D-Day, The Allied Invasion of Hitler's Fortress Europe (Zenith Press, 2012); Gettysburg: The Graphic History of America's Most Famous Battle and the Turning Point of the Civil War (Zenith Press, 2013); Grant vs. Lee: The Graphic History of the Civil War's Greatest Rivals During the Last Year of the War (Zenith Press, 2013); Bombing Nazi Germany: The Graphic History of the Allied Air Campaign That Defeated Hitler in World War II (Zenith Press, 2013); and The Red Baron: The Graphic History of Richthofen's Flying Circus and the Air War in WWI (Zenith Press, 2014). He is currently working on The Battle of the Bulge: A Graphic History of Allied Victory in the Ardennes, 1944-1945 (Zenith Press, 2014) for the 70th anniversary of the battle in December 2014.\nIllustrations: 364 illustrations & 8 maps\nSize: 6 in x 9 in x 0.375 in / 152.4 mm x 228.6 mm x 9.525 mm\nBombing Nazi Germany",

But it\u2019s not necessarily fun and carefree. In this episode, we take a close look at sex and seduction.\nNaomi her mother-in-law said to her, \u201cMy daughter, shouldn\u2019t I seek security for you, so that things might go well for you? Now isn\u2019t Boaz, whose young women you were with, our relative? Tonight he will be winnowing barley at the threshing floor. You should bathe, put on some perfume, wear nice clothes, and then go down to the threshing floor. Don\u2019t make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking. When he lies down, notice the place where he is lying. Then go, uncover his feet, and lie down. And he will tell you what to do.\u201d\nRuth replied to her, \u201cI\u2019ll do everything you are telling me.\u201d\nSo Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife.\nHe was intimate with her, the Lord let her become pregnant, and she gave birth to a son. The women said to Naomi, \u201cMay the Lord be blessed, who today hasn\u2019t left you without a redeemer. May his name be proclaimed in Israel. He will restore your life and sustain you in your old age. Your daughter-in-law who loves you has given birth to him. She\u2019s better for you than seven sons.\u201d Naomi took the child and held him to her breast, and she became his guardian. The neighborhood women gave him a name, saying, \u201cA son has been born to Naomi.\u201d They called his name Obed. He became Jesse\u2019s father and David\u2019s grandfather.",

Physicians can view data from the previous 11 months, and can receive monthly updates.\nPhysicians using the program are not required to share any information with state law enforcement; as the program website puts it, \u201cThe flow of information in this program is from law enforcement to healthcare professionals.\u201d\nAccording to a study in Pharmacotherapy, using data drawn from the database, heroin-related arrests increased by almost 50% from 2015 to 2016, while methamphetamine arrests increased by 170%. According to a separate study in Prevention of Chronic Diseases, in a survey of respondents using the program, 84% reported increased attentiveness to prescribing, 59% said it helped in intervening with patients who were abusing or diverting prescriptions, and 40% used it to help screen new patients.",

        "raw_content": "Mischief Brew (All Ages Show), High Dive, Purple 7\nStarting as a three-piece band in Columbus, Ohio; Defiance, Ohio has evolved into a family of musicians spread across three cities that has shared nearly a decade of performing and recording together.\nDrawing on the diverse and changing musical interests and practices of its members, the band is unique in the way songwriting has been shared between almost all of the members. While the members strive to incorporate musical influences with a fluidity that contradicts the rigidity of genre, the band\u2019s practice remains grounded in the culture of do-it-yourself punk and other vibrant, participatory communities. Lyrically, Defiance, Ohio\u2019s songs often reflect the personal resonance of navigating larger social dynamics like geography, race, violence, sexual orientation and mental health.\nTo date, Defiance, Ohio has released four full-length recordings as well as split-EPs and compilation tracks through self-release and a number of independent labels. During the summer of 2011, Defiance, Ohio is Elizabeth Gibbs, Geoff Hing, Theo Hilton, Will Staler and Ryan Woods.\nMischief Brew (All Ages Show)\nIn June of 2000, after spending four years screaming in a punk band called The Orphans, Erik Petersen confined himself to a basement with an acoustic guitar, a rickety drum kit, a mandolin, and a four-track to stir a bunch of ideas together into a stew of songs. The resulting concoction was \u201cMirth: or, Certain Verses Composed and Fitted to Tunes, for the Delight and Recreation of All,\u201d an eight-song demo cassette of acoustic punk influenced by medieval danses and raucous dust-raisers. On the spine of the tape (duplicated DIY-style by partners Denise Vertucci and Erik, later forming Fistolo Records), it read: \u201cA Taste Of The Mischief Brew,\u201d and included a \u201cFolk The System\u201d patch. There were no names or press pictures. Just a couple cryptic woodcuts, circle-A\u2019s, illustrations of jesters and goblins, and a PO Box as a contact method.\nSince then, Mischief Brew has grown to include several more humans, a few pug dogs, a lot more volume, and a bunch of pots and pans to bang on. It\u2019s not unusual to see members scavenging around for scraps of metal and pieces of wood before a show, to use as percussion for a live set. And it might be the only punk rock band to feature a vibraharp. Since that scratchy demo tape, they have done numerous U.S. and European tours and have played everywhere from the Electric Factory in Philly to old bomb shelters in Germany, from CBGBs (the original one) to ABC No Rio in NYC, from 924 Gilman in Berkeley to the Trumbullplex in Detroit...not to mention in attics, basements, barns, underneath train bridges, and on rocking boats underneath the Williamsburg Bridge on the East River.\nHigh Dive started as a 3-piece in Bloomington, Indiana in 2010 and released our self-titled debut album in December of 2011. Since then, we have grown to include more people and instruments and broadened our musical influences, releasing a digital-only EP, \"These Are Days,\" in June of 2013, which is now available on cassette, and a one-sided 12\" in September of 2014.\nThe Purple 7 is a band that features Will from DEFIANCE, OH/LANDLORD, Chris Mott from LANDLORD, and Patrick Jennings from the HOT NEW MEXICANS. Conceived in Chris's attic and Will's basement at MAGNETIC SOUTH on several experimental 4 track sessions while on leave from Landlord, the band has taken on new dimensions since Patrick arrived in town and set up shop in a suburban style studio on the south side of Bloomington. They were destined, it seems, to be in a band together.",

Know what it is?\nAdam Voorhes for Reader\u2019s Digest\nThe pens read \u201cSkilcraft U.S. Government.\u201d And if you have worked for an American government institution, chances are you\u2019ve used one. About $5 million worth of these pens are sold every year (with 60 percent going to the military), and they have quite the story behind them.\nTo start, they\u2019re assembled by the blind. In 1938, in the midst of the Great Depression, the government stepped in to help blind workers, who were already at a competitive disadvantage. Franklin Delano Roosevelt signed into law the Wagner-O\u2019Day Act, which required that the federal government purchase specific goods manufactured by blind Americans. The law soon included pens.\nThe Skilcraft brand came to be a decade or so later, in 1952. Today, the company employs over 5,500 blind workers in 37 states, producing an arsenal of office supplies, with the pens made in factories in Wisconsin and North Carolina. The pens must be built to the specifications outlined in a 16-page document that was first promulgated more than 50 years ago. Among the requirements? The pens must be able to write continuously for no less than 5,000 feet and in temperatures up to 160 degrees and down to 40 degrees below zero. You know, just in case.\nFrom Now I Know",

        "raw_content": "One advantage of graphics presentations is the convenience with which the audience can follow along, while one disadvantage is that data may show a false picture of the situation. Graphics presentations are a popular method to present large quantities of data because almost everyone can understand them. Some people may be unfamiliar with the technical terms used to explain data, but when presented graphically, a clear pattern can be shown.\nWhen presenting vital information, graphics presentations act as a great visual guide to the information being delivered. Many people find it easier to read a chart rather than listening to a set of numbers and trying to make sense of it. Using visual information along with the spoken word is a great way to reach some of the audience who would otherwise be unexcited about what they are hearing.\nHowever, one disadvantage of graphics presentations is that they can be time consuming to construct and may take away from the main point being discussed. Presentations are most effective when free of distractions, and some in the audience may lose focus by diverting attention to flashy graphics in the presentation. Additionally, if graphics presentations are done in a particular way, they can make the numbers look better or worse than they actually are, and some in the audience may be misled by graphics that do not tell the full story.\nDesign Powerpoint Presentation - Design Powerpoint Presentation\nwww.info.com/Design Powerpoint Presentation/search\nFind Design Powerpoint Presentation.

        "title": "RevereSport - Healthy Food to Experience while Travelling",
        "raw_content": "Healthy Dishes to Experience when Travelling\nWhether you travel for work or holiday, maintaining healthy eating habits can be a big challenge. Business travel involves hectic schedules leaving no time to prepare healthy meals. Fast food and snacks become an easy substitute. For many travellers, experiencing the local cuisine is the highlight of their trip. But indulging in just one unhealthy holiday meal, rich in salt, sugar or animal-based fats can increase a person's risk of a heart attack.\nSo how do you sustain a healthy diet while travelling?\nConsider How Your Food Is Prepared\nThe way your food is cooked has a major effect on your calorie intake. Although certain oils are good for you, such as olive oil and flaxseed oil, the saturated fat and trans fat in deep-fried foods should be avoided. Grilling, baking, roasting and steaming are healthier ways to prepare food. Consider these methods when ordering your meal.\nAvoiding Unhealthy Fats Can be Challenging\nWhile limiting fried food to smaller quantities is recommended, this might not be easy in the destination you are travelling to. India is a prime example of this. While Indian food is tasty, restaurants use a lot of oil, butter and ghee to make the food taste good.\nI asked a local to explain what a healthy Indian diet looks like. He recommended 3 chapattis per day (alongside three meals). He went on to explain that in the past, doctors recommended chapattis to sick patients as a cure for many ailments. I'm sure this isn't the case nowadays. Since chapatis are fried and low in nutritional value, many people would disagree with this theory. Eating too much of one kind of food causes deficiencies and allergies because it is an unbalanced diet.\nWhat Dishes Should I Eat?\nThe good news is there are many dishes you can experience guilt free during your travels. Here is my list of delicious and healthy dishes across the world.\n18 Healthy Dishes to Experience when Travelling\nSouth East Asian cuisine, particularly Thailand, is world-renowned for it's delicious flavours and quality street food. Unfortunately, the food is often high in fat, MSG and salt. Switch fried dishes such as Pad Thai and Nasi Goreng for a healthier alternative.\nTom Yum Goong (Prawns) \u2013 230 calories\nThis famous Thai dish is a tasty hot and sour soup usually served with prawn. It is widely served in neighbouring countries such as Singapore, Cambodia, Brunei, Laos and Malaysia. There are different varieties of Tom Yum with some soups containing coconut milk, tamarind sauce and chili paste known as Tom Yum Nam Kon (the creamy version) and Tom Yum Nam Sigh which is the healthier clear version.\nSom Tam (Papaya salad) \u2013 200 calories\nSom Tam is a spicy Thai salad made from green papaya, dried shrimp, string beans, garlic, tomatoes and Thai chillies. Green papayas are a good source of fiber, magnesium and vitamins A & C. This low fat dish is just 200 calories.\nThe Easten diet is typically low in red meat and animal-based fats and rich in whole grains, vegetables, fruits and seafood. These foods can lower your risk of cancer, heart disease, stroke and obesity. The food you get from your local Chinese take away would be unrecognisable to most Chinese people. The traditional Chinese diet is low in dairy, and features vegetables, rice, noodles, dumplings, fish, meat, soup and green tea.\nMi Fen (rice noodle soup) \u2013 210 calories\nMi Fen is a common Chinese dish of rice noodle soup. So popular that many locals eat this for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Rice noodles, gravy, peanuts or soybeans ,chopped scallions and thin slices of different kinds of meat are added by the counter. Chopped condiments of spring onions, chili, pickled beans and nuts can be added by the customer. Mi Fen is low in fat and approximately 210 calories\nTIP: Chinese menus are rarely translated to English so remembering a few dishes you enjoy will help with your travels in China. Mi Fen is an easy one to remember.\nSushi - 304 Calories\nSushi is the Japanese preparation of cooked vinegared rice combined with varied ingredients. Salmon and tuna are both healthy options because they're high in protein, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D. Nori (the seaweed wrapper) is high in iodine, while ginger and wasabi contain various antioxidant compounds, as well as minerals and vitamins. 6-8 pieces of avocado and salmon sushi roll contains 304 calories. Avoid shrimp tempura sushi roll, which contains 508 calories per 6-8 piece sushi roll.\nAlthough South Asian food is extremely tasty, those following this diet for a prelonged period are increasing their risk of chronic disease and type 2 Diabetes. Curries fried in butter and ghee are high in saturated fat. Full fat dairy products and sugar are often used in sweets and drinks. Limiting paneer consumption and sugary drinks is recommended. Here are some South Asian dishes which are easier on the calories.\nDhal or Dal \u2013 316 Calories\nDhal is a dried pulse (usually a lentil but can also be pea or bean) that has been split, meaning the skin has been stripped off. The texture of Dhal is similar to a thick soup. It\u2019s mixed with spices such as garlic, chili, cumin and turmeric and contains proteins and fibre. It's also a suitable for vegetarians.\nIn Nepal, Dhal Bhat, (Dhal served with rice) is a common dish which locals eat daily. It's also one of the cheapest meals on any menu. India's Dal Fry is also very popular and contains 316 calories per serving.\nTandoori Chicken \u2013 260 Calories\nTandoori dishes are popular in South Asian countries, in particular, India, Pakistan, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. Chicken is marinated in yoghurt and seasoned with tandoori masala and various other spices before being cooked in a clay oven. This cooking method allows fat from the chicken to drip away. Chicken is high in protein and low in carbohydrates. One leg of tandoori chicken is approximately 260 calories. Tandoori fish and vegetables contain fewer calories than chicken.\nCentral and Southern America\nLatin America is a highly diverse area of land that holds various cuisines which vary from each nation. Popular dishes include Tamales, Quesadellas, Tacos, empanadas and re-fried beans. For food with higher nutritional value, here are my recommendations.\nCeviche \u2013 228 Calories\nCeviche is a popular seafood dish in the coastal regions of Central and South America. It is made from fresh, raw fish spiced with chili and cured with lemon or lime. A 3-ounce portion provides 15 to 30 grams of protein.

You can check the calorie content on packaging as language won\u2019t be a barrier. Here are a couple of healthy Australian and Kiwi favourites.\nBarbequed Shrimp - 202 Calories\nShrimp serves as an excellent source of lean protein. Each 6-ounce portion provides 39 grams of protein, a significant amount toward the 46 grams recommended daily for women and 56 grams for men. Four ounces steamed contains over 100% of the Daily Value for selenium which helps fight damaging particles which damage cell membranes and DNA. A generous 6-ounce portion provides just 202 calories.\nHangi is a cultural dish of the Maori people of New Zealand. This is more of a type of a dish than a specific food, because many different foods can be cooked this way. This method of cooking is similar to that of a pressure cooker, as the food is cooked by hot steam which is trapped under the ground. Dig a deep pit in the ground, use a fire to heat some stones, wrap meat and vegetables in leaves, put them in baskets, cover the food in stones and dirt and wait a few hours for an authentic Hangi experience.\nWhat's your favourite dish?",

        "raw_content": "Where Did Yoga Begin?\nMany things come and go with changing fashions, but yoga has survived for thousands of years, and it is still gaining popularity. Today, it is widely practised across many parts of the world. Your local gym may offer Yoga Classes as part of their weekly fitness timetable.\nBut what you don\u2019t often hear about is the history of yoga. Where does it originate? How did yoga begin?\nAfter spending a lot of time in yoga schools and retreats in India, I became interested in the history of this ancient exercise. With new techniques and styles emerging, it made me think about how yoga had evolved to become the exercise we see today.\nThough many people in modern times think of yoga as just a physical exercise to become healthier physically, the deeper purpose of yoga practice is deeply spiritual and intended to help unite your individual soul with the universal consciousness.\nThere are many variations of Yoga which can be practised, but some are very different to the Yoga classes I had attended at home. The main styles of yoga that have evolved in modern times include Anusara, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Bikram, Forrest, Integral, Iyengar, Jivamukti, Kripalu, Kundalini, Power, Prenatal, Restorative, Sivananda, Viniyoga and more recently, Ariel yoga.\nLet's look at the history to learn how yoga has evolved.\nWhat I learned about the History of Yoga in India \u2013 Where and How it Began\nYoga originates from Northern India and began over 5,000 years ago. This is why it is so widely practised across the country, more so than in any other part of the world. Many Indians keep to their traditions from thousands of years ago and some researchers believe yoga began up to 10,000 years ago. Some of the information I researched sounded a little obscure and this could be why it is so difficult to trace back to exactly when it first began (5000 \u2013 10000 years is quite vague).\nThe early writings on yoga were transcribed on palm leaves which can easily be lost or damaged. Some information I found suggests that yoga teachings were secretive and shared only by voice.\nOfficially, the word yoga was first mentioned in the Rig Veda, the oldest sacred texts of rituals and mantras used by Brahmans (Vedic priests). Yoga was then slowly refined and developed by the Brahmans who documented their practices in the Upanishads (a huge work containing over 200 scriptures). The most famous Yogic scriptures is the Bhagavad-G\u00eet\u00e2, and was created approximately 500 B.C.E. The Upanishads took the idea of ritual sacrifice from the Vedas and taught the sacrifice of ego through self-knowledge, wisdom (jnana yoga) and action (karma yoga).\nHow Yoga Developed to the Modern Day\nThe early stages of yoga were a mix of beliefs and techniques. The first systematic presentation of yoga was written by Patanjali\u2019s Yoga-S\u00fbtras, in the second century, which describes the journey of Raja Yoga, or sometimes referred to as \"classical yoga\".\nPatanjali defined the \"eight limbed path\" steps and stages towards achieving enlightenment or Samadhi. Patanjali is often referred to as the father of yoga and his teachings strongly influence many styles of yoga today. Patanjali, yoga masters rejected the ancient Vedas teachings and instead embraced the body as the way to obtain enlightenment. They developed Tantra Yoga, which includes techniques to cleanse the mind and body. The discovery of practices centering the body combined with physical-spiritual connections then led to the beginning of what is known as Hatha Yoga.\nHow Yoga Gained Popularity in The West\nYoga masters began travelling to the West between the late 80s and early 90s and began attracting new followers. Swami Vivekananda made a huge impact at the Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893 when he impressed the audience with his teachings on yoga. In India, Hatha Yoga began being strongly promoted between the 1920s and 30s with the work of T. Krishnamacharya and Swami Sivananda who practiced Hatha Yoga. Krishnamacharya opened the first Hatha Yoga school in Mysore in 1924 and Sivananda founded the Divine Life Society at the holy Ganges River in 1936.\nYoga continued to develop very slowly in the West until 1947 when Indra Devi opened her yoga studio in Hollywood. Now many Indian and Western teachers have introduced Hatha Yoga with many schools teaching the technique worldwide.\nWhat do Indians Think Of Yoga In The West?\nAlthough Hatha Yoga schools are available in the West, there are a number of commercialised yoga classes which have gained popularity. So what do Indians think of yoga in the West?\nI have spoken to a number of local Indians about this topic and I received a very mixed response. One local told me that nowadays, he believes Westerners are more into yoga than Indians. No one practiced yoga in his family and he implied that only the elderly Indian population continued to practice yoga.\nAnother local thought differently. He explained that many people, including himself and his family, follow a local TV programme which demonstrates yoga in the mornings. He believes that Westerners visisting India for yoga brings more work opportuntities for the local community. Although some yoga techniques have evolved, his opinion of Westernised yoga was very positive because it encourages more people to practice.\nIs Comercialisation Corrupting Yoga?\nAnother local\u2019s thoughts on Westernised yoga was very different. She believes that commercialisation is corrupting yoga in the West and has lost its original meaning.\n\u201cStressful jobs and a lack of time demands extensive changes to yoga to match modern lifestyle\u201d. She believes this is doing harm to the practice. She went on to explain that most of the \u2018asanas\u2019 or yoga postures/poses, are practiced without the faith and understanding, converting it simply into physical exercise.\n\u201cTrue yoga needs deep faith and it aims at spiritual attainment. This has been lost in modern commercialised yoga\u201d\nThese comments are not my personal opinion, I am simply sharing the opinions of others on this topic.\nWhat are your thoughts on Western modernised yoga?",

        "title": "Negligent Entrustment in North Carolina",
        "raw_content": "Negligent Entrustment in North Carolina\nYesterday we talked about the family purpose doctrine. Today we\u2019ll discuss another way to hold someone besides the driver in a car accident liable for damages \u2013 the theory of negligent entrustment.\nCourts in North Carolina have stated the theory of negligent entrustment as follows:\nUnder the negligent entrustment theory the owner is held liable, not for any imputed negligence, but by reason of his own independent and wrongful breach of duty in entrusting his automobile to one he knows or should know is likely to cause injury; proof of negligence of the driver merely furnishes the causal connection between the primary negligence of the owner and the injury or damage.\nSo there are two elements that must be proven to establish negligent entrustment. First, the plaintiff must show that the defendant \u201centrusted\u201d his automobile to the driver. And second, the plaintiff must show that the defendant knew or should have known that the driver was likely to cause injury.\nIn order to show that the defendant \u201centrusted\u201d his automobile to the driver, the driver must have the defendant\u2019s authorization or consent to drive the vehicle. There has been limited case law analyzing what \u201centrusted\u201d means in North Carolina. The Court of Appeals has recognized that \u201cour Courts do not appear to have applied the doctrine of negligent entrustment in a situation where the vehicle was operated without the owner\u2019s knowledge or consent.\u201d The reasonable foreseeability that a person known to be a reckless driver might borrow the car without permission does not constitute entrustment; there must be actual authorization or consent. Therefore, in the case Hill ex rel. Hill v. West (2008) where the borrower of the car testified that she had no reason to believe she had been authorized to drive the car, had never been given the keys, and had never driven the car before, the theory of negligent entrustment was not applicable.\nThere is more case law weighing whether a defendant knew or should have known that the driver was likely to cause injury. North Carolina courts have held that submission of the issue of negligent entrustment was proper in a case \u201cwhere the driver had accumulated three safe-movement violations and six speeding convictions in a span of six years.\u201d The issue of negligent entrustment was also properly submitted to a jury \u201cwhere the owner of the automobile knew that the driver had a \u201cvery serious\u201d automobile accident a few years earlier, had another accident two years later, and had a conviction for driving without a license from several years before.\u201d Another case in which the issue of negligent entrustment was properly submitted to a jury was \u201cwhere [the] driver had received two convictions for driving under the influence of alcohol, three convictions for reckless driving, and six convictions for speeding.\u201d\nHowever, in the case Tart v. Martin (2000), where the driver\u2019s only moving violation was more than two years before the accident and the driver was involved in three no-fault accident one to two years before the accident, the facts did not, \u201cas a matter of law, support a conclusion that [the driver] was so likely to cause harm to others that entrusting a motor vehicle to him amounted to negligent entrustment.\u201d\nNorth Carolina courts have been unwilling to extend the theory of negligent entrustment to someone who is not the owner of the borrowed vehicle. The North Carolina Court of Appeals discussed extending the theory of negligent entrustment in the 1998 case, Coble v. Knight. In that case, Daniel and his friend William were drinking alcoholic beverages over the course of a few hours. They then stopped at a gas station, and Daniel locked his keys in the car. He called his father and asked him to bring the spare keys to the car. His father drove to the gas station and gave the spare keys to Daniel. Shortly after that, Daniel was involved in a car accident, which killed William, who was a passenger in Daniel\u2019s car.\nWilliam\u2019s estate then sued Daniel\u2019s father under the theory of negligent entrustment. The estate argued that\nalthough the father in this case did not have legal ownership of his son\u2019s automobile, he did have \u201cactual control\u201d of the vehicle because he possessed his son\u2019s spare keys. Following this logic, the estate urges us to extend liability under North Carolina\u2019s negligent entrustment theory to include not only owners of vehicles, but \u201canyone who provides the keys and control over an automobile to another who may be too intoxicated to drive.\u201d\nAlthough the Court of Appeals recognized that there were a few states that \u201chave imposed liability on non-owners who negligently entrust vehicles to persons whom they knew or should have known were intoxicated,\u201d it held that the law in North Carolina required \u201cproof of ownership in order to impose liability on the father.\u201d\nOften the same facts will lend themselves to liability under both the theory of negligent entrustment and agency theory (or respondeat superior). North Carolina courts have held that in the event that both theories are raised, \u201cthe liability of the defendant \u2026 would rest on the doctrine of respondeat superior only and the negligent entrustment allegation would become irrelevant and prejudicial.\u201d The reasoning behind this rule is to keep out evidence of the driver\u2019s past negligence since it would be relevant to show that the owner knew or should have known of the driver\u2019s likelihood to injure others but would not be relevant to show the driver\u2019s negligence in that particular instance and might prejudice the jury.\nThe exception to this general rule of law is when a claim for punitive damages is raised for the willful and wanton entrustment of a vehicle to a person who is likely to injure others. G.S. 1D-15(c) states that \u201cPunitive damages shall not be awarded against a person solely on the basis of vicarious liability for the acts or omissions of another.\u201d However, the theory of negligent entrustment is not a vicarious liability. It is the owner\u2019s \u201cown independent and wrongful breach of duty in entrusting his automobile to one he knows or should know is likely to cause injury.\u201d Punitive damages are not awarded based on mere negligence. To hold the owner of the vehicle liable for punitive damages, the plaintiff must show that the owner acted willfully and wantonly in entrusting his vehicle to the driver.\nPreviousPrevious post:The Family Purpose Doctrine in North CarolinaNextNext post:Boating While Impaired in North Carolina",

        "raw_content": "I don\u2019t get sick.\nI\u2019ve had all of the popular childhood diseases and ailments: measles, mumps, chickenpox, a mild case of hepatitis A, pleurisy and poison ivy. I\u2019m now borderline for diabetes and I suffer from male pattern baldness.\nThe only bout of flu I\u2019ve had came after pulling an all-nighter to get the newspaper out, followed by a night of Scotch and darts at the legion hall.\nThe only time I\u2019ve ever missed a day of work (50 actually) was when I broke my leg in three places \u2014 and I still managed to do work from home. Back in the day, I come to work hungover a few times after going to the bar with co-workers the night before.\nSo why is the first question anyone asks these days, \u201cAre you getting the H1N1 flu shot?\u201d\nProbably because the odds are pretty good that the guy sneezing all over the drive-thru mike and asking \u201cDo you want fries with that?\u201d won\u2019t be getting the shot. A poll released last weekend showed that almost half of Canadians do not plan to get the vaccine created to stop the H1N1 flu.\nThirty per cent of those surveyed said they are not at all likely to roll up their sleeves, while 18 per cent said they are not very likely, according to a poll by Ipsos Reid for Canwest News Service and Global National.\nThe results reflect the division among Canadians who are now debating what to do when the H1N1 flu shot is available in their communities, as well as the challenge public health officials have ahead of them in trying to tip the balance toward immunization.\nI guess I\u2019m from the \u201cIf you don\u2019t feel well you go to work but if you feel sick stay home\u201d school of medicine. I meet a lot of you as I am out in the community covering events important to you. And I gotta tell ya, some of you ain\u2019t all that healthy. Any parent will tell you elementary schools are a petri dish waiting to mutate and the same goes for churches, hockey rinks and lineups at the bank \u2014 anywhere we get together to share each other\u2019s misery.\nI spent two days in Ottawa last week lobbying for a fair break for community newspapers and I shook the hand of a lot of politicians and bureaucrats \u2014 and you just don\u2019t know whose back pocket their hands have been in.\nChief Public Health Officer Dr. David Butler-Jones tried to counter fears and confusion during a news conference, in which he made the case for vaccination. \u201cThere is a very real risk of the flu. Even in its mildest form, it\u2019s miserable and, at its worst, it kills or puts into ICUs and on ventilator support perfectly previous healthy young people,\u201d said Butler-Jones. \u201cThe choice is simple: a safe and effective preventive vaccine or a very real risk of disease. If we get the real facts about the vaccine, you will almost certainly choose immunization.\u201d\nOK, once you strip away the hysteria, is H1N1 more like the Black Death or Y2K?\nWorking against public health officials is that Dr. Chuck N. Little has been calling the next one the big one for so long that anything that must be the one that will turn us all into flesh-eating zombies.\nAvian flu, swine flu, AIDS, SARS, West Nile \u2014 they were all supposed to cull the herd. They all pale in comparison of course to the upwards of two million souls malaria kills every year but because those unfortunate folks live in sub-Saharan Africa, they are invisible to the hype of media and Big Pharmaceutical.\nThe poll also showed 34 per cent of Canadians aren\u2019t certain it has been tested sufficiently and proven to be safe, and 29 per cent fear they could actually get the H1N1 flu from the vaccine itself. No vaccine is 100 per cent effective but vaccination significantly reduces the odds of contracting influenza. You\u2019re more likely at a higher risk of being struck and killed by lightning than dying from some fatal side effect from the vaccine.\nMost Canadians said they are washing their hands, using hand sanitizer and coughing in their sleeves more often than they were before. If only I had purchased shares in one of those hand sanitizer companies when I had the chance.\nNot withstanding that we want our families to live in a healthy community, our economy would relapse if key players were unable to go to work and provide the services we need to function as a society.\nVaccination is our best, and safest, line of defense.",

        "raw_content": "Quirky Nixon Library Spacesuit Wedding Photograph\nIn years past when I photographed weddings at the Nixon Presidential Library & Museum, we had no problem entering the Museum with the bridegroom to capture a few portraits. However it appears at times have changed and couples getting married there are no longer allowed to enter the Museum area. That was a great disappointment to this bride and so a few quick words from the groom to the security guard gained us entry. We worked very quickly as I only had a few minutes to capture a few photographs and this was one of them. I created a photograph of a couple in the visor of the spacesuit many years before this photograph, that I was never wholly satisfied with the result. When I returned, I had a detailed plan as to how I was going to create a very special shot with the spacesuit \u2014 which just happens to be the spacesuit of Neil Armstrong. However, when we arrived, the spacesuit was in a small corner of the room and some of the surrounding signage prevented me from getting a clean photo of the suit and the couple. Thinking quickly, I came up with the idea of having this quirky couple make faces in the reflection. But because of the position of the spacesuit, I couldn't take a photograph that featured the bridegroom alone and so I decided that the only way to do a good job with the image was to place myself in the photograph as well. Although this image is nowhere near what I had in mind for this wedding, I'm certainly happy with the result and I'm proud to presented here in my wedding photography portfolio.Nixon Presidential Library & Museum is located in Yorba Linda, California.

The blog also features a section dedicated to coverage of recent filings and developments in class action lawsuits throughout the Carolinas.\n\u201cRobinson Bradshaw has one of the most active class action practices in the Carolinas and a deep understanding of the complexities presented when defending these kinds of cases,\u201d Wright said. \u201cWe hope this blog will serve as a resource for the insurance, business and legal communities, as well as our clients, with respect to game-changing precedents that are coming out of the U.S. Supreme Court, as well as lower courts in the Carolinas.\u201d\nBlog contributors include litigation attorneys Everett J.

        "raw_content": "Guidance for Students\nThe process for considering academic appeals is set out in the Academic Regulations for taught students and the Research Degree Regulations for research students. This page includes supplementary guidance for students who are considering submitting an appeal. Students should read the relevant regulations before submitting an appeal.\nAcademic appeals must be submitted within 10 working days of the student being sent formal notice of the decision in question.\nWhat is an academic appeal?\nAn academic appeal is an appeal by a student against an academic decision by the University. This includes decisions relating to module results, degree results, programme decisions, research progression and research degree awarding decisions.\nWhat decisions cannot be appealed?\nStudents cannot use the academic appeals process to challenge academic judgement. The Office of the Independent Adjudicator defines academic judgement as:\n\u2026 a judgment that is made about a matter where the opinion of an academic expert is essential. So for example a judgment about marks awarded, degree classification, research methodology, whether feedback is correct or adequate, and the content or outcomes of a course will normally involve academic judgment.\nRef - Paragraph 30, Guidance Note on the OIA Rules\nThis means that, in particular, students cannot appeal on the basis that they are unhappy with a grade or classification or because they believe that the content of their work deserved a higher mark.\nIf a student is unhappy about a grade or classification, they should contact their tutor to discuss feedback on their assignment or examination. However, under no circumstances will a tutor be able to change the grade or classification as a result of this conversation.\nWhat are the grounds for appeal?\nStudents must submit their appeal on one or more of the following grounds:\nThat a procedural irregularity or administrative error has occurred in the process of an assessment which is of such a nature as to create a reasonable possibility that in the absence of the procedural irregularity or administrative error the decision in question would have been different;\nThat the student\u2019s academic performance was materially affected by significant, relevant and uncontrollable circumstances that were unknown to the decision-maker, and which were of such a nature that the student could not with reasonable diligence have disclosed to them before the decision was made;\nThat there is evidence of prejudice or bias on the part of the decision-maker, which is of such a nature as to create a reasonable possibility that in the absence of any prejudice or bias the decision in question would have been different;\nIt is the responsibility of the student to provide copies of evidence in support of their appeal. This may include medical evidence, copies of correspondence or other documentation. The University reserves the right to reject an academic appeal without further consideration if the student has not specified the grounds on which they are appealing, or if insufficient evidence has been provided.\nIf a student is submitting an appeal under ground ii), it is important that they explain not just the circumstances they were experiencing, but also the reason why they were unable to inform the University at the time. Where possible, the student should provide evidence to support both these points.\nDeadlines for submitting an appeal\nA student can request an extension to submit their appeal in advance of the deadline. This request should be supported by evidence. An appeal submitted outside of the permitted timeframe will only be accepted where the student provides a good reason, supported by evidence, for the delay. The Deputy University Secretary or nominee will determine what constitutes a good reason.\nAn academic appeal must be submitted using the University\u2019s Academic Appeals Form and must contain all the information requested on the form. The completed form and evidence should be sent via email to unisec@roehampton.ac.uk. The appeal may be rejected without further consideration where the form has not been completed correctly.\nIf a student would like to receive a copy of the form in an alternative format or discuss alternative options for submitting an appeal, they should contact unisec@roehampton.ac.uk.\nStudents who are considering submitting an appeal or need advice should contact Roehampton Students\u2019 Union. More details can be found on the RSU website: https://www.roehamptonstudent.com/support/academic/appeals/. Alternatively, students can email Matthew Hurst at su.advice@roehampton.ac.uk.\nStudents can also contact the University Secretariat at unisec@roehampton.ac.uk for advice about how to submit an appeal.\nHow will the appeal be considered?\nOnce an appeal has been received by Secretariat the student will be sent an acknowledgement via email. The acknowledgement will contain information about the next steps. The Deputy University Secretary or nominee will review the appeal to determine whether or not grounds have been disclosed.\nIf grounds have not been disclosed, your appeal will be dismissed and a Completion of Procedures Letter will be issued. You then have the option of submitting a complaint to the Office of the Independent Adjudicator (see below).\nIf grounds have been disclosed, the appeal will be forwarded to the Academic Appeals Group for consideration. The Academic Appeals Group may conduct further enquiries to gather the information it needs. The student will normally be provided with a copy of this information and be asked to comment. The Academic Appeals Group will make a decision about the appeal, which will be communicated to the student in a letter sent by the case handler.\nOccasionally, the Academic Appeals Group may decide to hold an academic appeal hearing. If this is the case, the student will be asked to come to a meeting and provide information about their appeal.\nConsideration of an appeal by the University will normally take no longer than 70 days.\nWhat will happen whilst the appeal is under consideration?\nWhilst an appeal is under consideration the original decision will stand. This means that students who have been programme terminated should not attend classes whilst they wait for a decision on their appeal. Students who have appealed will be permitted to graduate, but if the appeal is successful then the original award will be rescinded and a new award confirmed by the relevant examination board.\nAt certain times of the year the University receives a high number of appeals. While we will always endeavour to respond to appeals promptly and without delay, we will normally prioritise appeals from students who have been programme terminated and who cannot progress over appeals about degree classifications.\nWhat if a student is unhappy with the outcome?\nIf an appeal is not upheld by the Academic Appeals Group, the student will be provided with information about how to request a review. The review request should normally be submitted within 10 working days of the appeal outcome being sent to the student by the case handler.\nThe University Secretary and Registrar will consider the request and determine if grounds have been disclosed. If grounds have not been disclosed, the University Secretary and Registrar will issue a Completion of Procedures Letter.\nIf grounds have been disclosed, then the appeal will be forwarded to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor for consideration. The Deputy Vice-Chancellor will make a decision and this will be communicated to the student in writing.\nConsideration of a request for a review will normally take no longer than 20 days.\nThe Office of the Independent Adjudicator\nDecisions taken by the University about appeals may be eligible for review by the Office of the Independent Adjudicator for Higher Education (OIA), which is an independent body set up to review student complaints and appeals. More information about the OIA can be accessed at http://www.oiahe.org.uk/. The OIA can be contacted at 0118 959 9813 or enquires@oiahe.org.uk.",

        "title": "Many Moms Who Struggle To Breastfeed Feel Guilt, New Survey Finds",
        "raw_content": "morrowlight/Shutterstock\nMany Moms Who Struggle To Breastfeed Feel Guilt, New Survey Finds\nHow a mother feeds her baby is an extremely personal decision. So many factors go into this choice between breast and bottle \u2014 and sometimes, it isn't even a \"choice\" at all. Because as much as a new mom might want to exclusively breastfeed her child, if she doesn't have support in this decision or if her body doesn't provide a sufficient milk supply, it simply might not be within the realm of possibility. With this in mind, many moms who struggle to breastfeed feel guilt, a new survey finds, and it isn't hard to see why.\nSo here's the lowdown: The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life, and then continued breastfeeding and the introduction of solids from 6 months to at least age 1. It makes sense, considering breast milk offers a number of health benefits for both mom and baby that are simply not offered by formula-feeding. But it seems as if the \"breast is best\" push to increase breastfeeding rates has managed to have a negative effect on moms who struggle to breastfeed.\nThis is evident by a recent poll that asked more than 1,000 UK women between the ages of 18 and 40 who had a baby in the past decade about their breastfeeding experiences, the Daily Mail reported. According to the poll by BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour, half of mothers who breastfed struggled to do so. And although two-thirds of the moms said breastfeeding was one of the best parts of being a mother, half of them also said it was one of the hardest.\nAs the Independent reported, over a third of women in this poll who formula-fed their baby said they felt guilty or embarrassed for giving their baby formula. In fact, one in seven women surveyed said that how they fed their baby had a negative effect on their mental health. \"Often women are told what they should be doing without a full understanding of the factors that affect a woman\u2019s decision to feed by breast, bottle, or both,\" said Karen Dalziel, editor of Woman\u2019s Hour, per the Independent. Dalziel continued:\nThis poll gives clarity on those reasons and shows that feeding babies is a complicated and emotional experience \u2014 it exposes the impact healthcare professionals, family, and friends can have on the whole experience.\nHere are other interesting tidbits of information I took away from the survey:\nThirty-three percent of women who breastfed said that they chose to go that route because of societal pressures.\nThirty percent who formula-fed their baby said they would have preferred to breastfeed but were embarrassed to do so in public.\n\"The results of the poll provide some really interesting insights into how different the experience of feeding your baby can be,\" said BBC Radio Sheffield editor, Katrina Bunker, according to the Independent. \"For some it is obviously a magical part of motherhood, for others it can be traumatic and associated with pressure and a lack of support. There is clearly a bigger conversation to be had on the subject.\"\nYes, there definitely is a bigger conversation to be had. Because although breastfeeding does offer health benefits that formula does not \u2014 like antibodies, immune factors, enzymes, and white blood cells, which help protect babies from diseases and infections \u2014 it's simply not possible for every mother. With that said, I'm not sure what the answer is exactly. All I know is there's a fine line between actively promoting breastfeeding and inadvertently making mothers feel like crap because it just didn't work out for them. And clearly, there's room for improvement.",

        "raw_content": "The rap collective premiere their new EP, GRRRL PRTY x Bionik.\n12/19/2013 Anna Fitzpatrick, Joe Coscarelli, Suzy Exposito, Lebohang Masango, Julianne Escobedo Shepherd, Estelle Tang, Marie Lodi, Allyssa Yohana and Lena Singer\nFriday Playlist: Boogie Wonderland\n05/03/2012 Jessica Hopper, Joe Coscarelli, Amy Rose Spiegel, Stephanie Kuehnert, Hazel Cills, Laia Garcia, Marie Lodi, Anna Fitzpatrick and Sonja Ahlers\n11/19/2015 Reagan\nPhoto courtesy of Score Press.\nGRRRL PRTY, comprised of Lizzo, Sophia Eris, Manchita, DJ Shannon Blowtorch, and Quinn Wilson, aren\u2019t afraid to talk about what\u2019s going on IRL. On their new EP, GRRRL PRTY x Bionik, streaming below, the rap collective does just that:\nI spoke with some of the members of GRRRL PRTY about feminism, Destiny\u2019s Child, and standing up for yourself.\nSYDNEY GORE: Growing up, which groups inspired you to create music?\nLIZZO: Beyonc\u00e9 and Destiny\u2019s Child really helped me when I was younger. [Manchita and Sophia agree in unison.] I was always forming groups with my friends\u2014R&B groups with one rapper, like TLC. There are obviously other influences, but when it comes to GRRRL PRTY, making music with my friends, who are talented and also happen to be women, the [inspiration] came from Destiny\u2019s Child, the greatest R&B group of all time. [Laughs]\nYou take such a strong stance on feminism, in your music and in real life.\nSOPHIA ERIS: Feminism is not being seen as a female rapper, but just a rapper. It\u2019s about being seen as equals. It\u2019d be nice if one day it would be like, \u201cOh, this is a rapper.\u201d We are women, we\u2019re very proud of it, and it\u2019s nice to be in unison as a female group, but it is nice to also be looked at as just a rapper, and to have the \u201cfemale\u201d dropped.\nMANCHITA: [While] I think feminism is the belief that men and women are equal, it reaches further than just gender and equal rights for men and women. It\u2019s about equality for everybody. Right now, movements are divided. We need to really fight for individual rights like Black Lives Matter, [gay rights], equal pay for women, and the general ideological transformation of our society.\nLIZZO: I\u2019m at a point where I\u2019m like, \u201cWhat about fairness?\u201d We\u2019re talking about equality. Why don\u2019t we make [things] fair? If you\u2019re not going to shoot a little 11-year-old white boy, then don\u2019t shoot a little 12-year-old black boy. If I look cute and you want to ask me about it on the red carpet, [also] ask a dude. At the same time, it\u2019s not fair to make THAT the only thing about me. Once we get people to start thinking about [what\u2019s fair], I think we\u2019ll make some strides.\nDo issues that you\u2019re all passionate about come through on the new EP?\nLIZZO: Yeah. \u201cKlank Klank\u201d is flirty; [we\u2019re] like, \u201cYou\u2019re never gonna get it.\u201d But, we\u2019re also saying, \u201cListen, to what we\u2019re saying. Listen underneath that, and get it through your mind that just because I am a woman, does not give you the right to [go] beyond desiring me. We\u2019re writing these verses to get our own personal demons and problems out. At first, artists are trying to get the words off their chests, because we don\u2019t always get the opportunity. As our music evolves, the message will evolve. It\u2019s hard to start off being like, \u201cWe are the world,\u201d when we\u2019re like, \u201cWhy am I in this world?\u201d\nMANCHITA: There\u2019s a lot of power in our delivery and anger in our messages. There\u2019s this boiling up of stuff that we are just letting go. It\u2019s all coming from this place in our guts that\u2019s just pissed. I consider every GRRRL PRTY song a battle song. We write fight songs. [Laughs] We\u2019re charged, and [our music] is inseparable from who we are as people.\nSOPHIA ERIS: There\u2019s a song called \u201cCan I Live?\u201d on the EP. At the time, there was a lot of turmoil in Ferguson, and a lot of really bad things were happening. We felt an angst inside. We were thinking, \u201cCan I live?\u201d And, we went off that feeling.\nMANCHITA: On \u201cKlank Klank,\u201d we\u2019re laying claim to our bodies. We\u2019re like, \u201cI see you looking, but I don\u2019t care. Back up, it\u2019s not for you. This is my body.\u201d The truth of the song is taking control of our physical selves and being in charge of our bodies.\nLIZZO: On \u201cCan I Live?\u201d I say \u201cyou make me sick\u201d because I just don\u2019t have any other words, you know? \u201cKlank Klank\u201d is about\u2014and this happens a lot\u2014[when] dudes come around a group of women that\u2019s killing it, and they think they can cruise through with the crew and try to [hit] on all of us. When men do this, it\u2019s annoying. It\u2019s not even cute. On the EP, I\u2019m able to express myself. \u2666\nboink destiny's child feminism grrrl prty lizzo premiere\nHow to Run an Intersectional Feminism Club\nFind a Real Connection\nFinding Feminisms\nHero Status: Zanele Muholi\nKathryn November 23rd, 2015 1:07 AM\ntwin cities luv <3 <3 <3 <3",

        "raw_content": "Portis continued to build on his game last season -- his third year in the league. The former 22nd overall pick saw a career-high 22.5 minutes per contest and averaged 13.2 points on 47.1 percent shooting from the field, 6.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists. He also recorded 12 double-doubles, nine 20-plus-point performances, and two games with at least 15 rebounds. Despite the emergence of Lauri Markkanen, the signing of Jabari Parker and the drafting of Wendell Carter, Portis\u2019 ability to play both power forward and center should keep affording him opportunities to see the floor. In addition to his impressive rebounding, he\u2019s turned into a passable floor spacer (1.1 threes at 35.9 percent) and free-throw shooter (76.9 percent) -- key aspects for big men in garnering playing time. While it\u2019s ill-advised to assume an uptick in production from Portis given the situation, his overall upside still gives him Fantasy value as a late-round flyer. Read Past Outlooks\n$Signed a two-year, $2.84 million contract with the Bulls in July of 2015. Bulls exercised $1.52 million team option for 2017-18 in October of 2016. Bulls exercised $2.49 million team option for 2018-19 in October of 2017. Traded to the Wizards in February of 2019.\nDrops 24 in loss\nFWashington Wizards\nPortis totaled 24 points (9-17 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, two steals and an assist over 23 minutes in the Wizards' loss to the Pistons on Monday.\nPortis has now averaged 21.3 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists in his three games as a Wizard. Portis has provided the Wizards with something they've desperately needed this season - a frontcourt player who can score. Although he's come off the bench in all three games in Washington, Portis has averaged more minutes (26.3) than starter Thomas Bryant. Portis may soon take the starting job from Bryant which will make him even more valuable, but he's still a great play across all formats even in a bench role.\nAverage Fantasy Points are determined when Bobby Portis was active vs. non-active during the season. Click here to view average fantasy points for a different time period.\nRecent RotoWire Articles Featuring Bobby Portis\nPortis had a relatively disappointing sophomore campaign, as he struggled to be much of a factor in the regular rotation. Even following the trade of Taj Gibson to the Thunder at the trade deadline, Portis really didn't do much to help his case as a Fantasy option, though his minutes certainly increased over the last two months of the season. Portis' per game point (6.8) and rebound (4.8) averages fell from his rookie year, although he did demonstrate a slightly improved shot at 48.8 percent from the floor and 33.3 percent from deep, up from 42.7 and 30.8, respectively, a year prior. His outlook doesn't look much better heading into 2017-18. The Bulls drafted Lauri Markkanen with the seventh overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft and he's currently slotted in as the favorite for starting point guard duties. The Bulls are officially in full rebuild mode following the trade of Jimmy Butler, meaning the rookie big man should get a ton of run. That could come at the expense of Portis' playing time and it wouldn't be surprising if he ultimately was stuck in a similar or smaller role during the upcoming campaign as he battles with Nikola Mirotic for backup duties.\nPortis, the 22nd overall pick in 2015, is coming off of an encouraging debut season in which he established himself as a rotation-caliber player. He appeared in 62 games and made four starts, finishing with averages of 7.0 points and 5.4 rebounds per game. Portis started slowly, appearing in only four of Chicago's first 24 games, but his role increased dramatically in mid-December after Joakim Noah was lost for the season with a shoulder injury. Portis put up 20 points and 11 rebounds in a Dec. 19 loss to the Knicks, and from that point on averaged 18.5 minutes per game over the season's final 58 contests. While he was a fixture in the rotation, his role fluctuated on a night-to-night basis, making it difficult for the rookie to establish a rhythm. Portis is expected to take a step forward this season, but it's unclear if he'll be able to carve out significantly more minutes, even after the team parted ways with Noah and Pau Gasol over the summer. Taj Gibson projects to start at power forward alongside Robin Lopez, leaving Portis to compete with Nikola Mirotic for minutes off the bench. Portis is the better rebounder and defender, but Mirotic will be needed to space the floor to help offset what might be the NBA's worst shooting backcourt. To his credit, Portis flashed perimeter skills as a rookie -- he 16-of-52 (30.8%) from three-point range -- but he can't match Mirotic's shooting ability. Given the depth ahead of him, Portis is probably an undrafted commodity in most shallow fantasy leagues, but he holds considerable value as a longer-term asset in dynasty formats.\nThe Bulls selected Portis with the 22nd pick of the 2015 NBA Draft to add yet another talented big man to their roster. Portis had an excellent sophomore campaign for Arkansas as he averaged 17.5 points, 8.9 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.4 blocks in 30 minutes per game. His percentages were impressive as well as he shot 54 percent from the field, 74 percent from the charity stripe, and 47 percent from behind the arc. The Bulls expect him to play power forward and center, and he is similar to fellow Bulls' big man Taj Gibson in his ability to play both positions and play on both ends of the floor. Portis has better range than Gibson though, evident by his ability to shoot from behind the arc. While Portis has a lot of talent, he'll likely be buried on the bench behind Pau Gasol, Joakim Noah, Gibson, and Nikola Mirotic during his rookie season.\nDouble-doubles in victory\nPortis compiled 10 points (4-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists, and two blocks in 29 minutes during Saturday's 134-125 victory over Chicago.\nHuge in Washington debut\nPortis scored a game-high 30 points (12-18 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding six rebounds, two assists and a steal in 27 minutes off the bench during Friday's 119-106 win over the Cavaliers.\nExpected to see at least 20 minutes\nPortis is expected to play 20-plus minutes during his Wizards debut against the Cavaliers on Friday, Chase Hughes of NBC Sports Washington reports.\nWill debut Friday\nPortis (not injury related) will make his Wizards debut Friday against the Cavaliers.\nTraded to Washington\nThe Bulls dealt Portis, Jabari Parker and a 2023 second-round pick to the Wizards on Wednesday in exchange for Otto Porter, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.",

        "title": "Marijuana As A Treatment For Epilepsy - Royal Queen Seeds - RQS Blog",
        "raw_content": "Medical cannabis is showing great potential in the treatment of epilepsy. Cannabis has been shown in several studies to successfully treat seizures, completely eradicating them in some cases.\nCannabis has been used medicinally for thousands of years by the human race for a large catalogue of ailments. It is only in recent human history, that this mighty herb fell victim to human greed and was bound into the chains of prohibition. However, these chains are being repeatedly broken in many areas of the world as many scientific breakthroughs and scores of anecdotal accounts are displaying, that cannabis is a powerful medicinal tool in need of proper research and legal distribution to those in need of its healing. Cannabis is issued medicinally for a plethora or disorders, and one that it seems to affect very positively is epilepsy.\nWHAT EXACTLY IS EPILEPSY?\nEpilepsy is a neurological condition, that directly affects the nervous system and causes seizures in individuals who suffer from the condition. Epilepsy is usually diagnosed after patients have experienced a series of seizures. The catalyst of these seizures are disturbances, that occurred within the electrical activity of the brain. The reason these seizures start is still largely unknown, but they are thought to perhaps have origins in genetics and brain trauma.\nA colossal 65 million people worldwide have been diagnosed with epilepsy and 3 million of these individuals live within the United States, with 150,000 cases diagnosed in the country each year. Perhaps what is more shocking, is that a total of one-third of people diagnosed with epilepsy who experience uncontrollable seizures because there is no available medication, that works effectively for their condition.\nOne of the goals of treating epilepsy is to allow people to continue to live functional and fulfilling life's epilepsy treatment. Treatment includes surgery and nutritional and lifestyle changes. However, the most common attempt at treating the condition is through medication, many patients may need to take them for the rest of their life. The majority of epileptic seizures are controlled through the use of anticonvulsant drugs which, are used to reduce the severity of seizures and to calm hyperactivity in the brain.\nAlthough these drugs may prove effective at times, patients are usually started on low doses and worked up to higher amounts due to the vast array of side effects, that accompany taking them. There is a long list of available anticonvulsants, and an equally long list of different side effects, that patients experience. Common side effects include double vision, fatigue, sleepiness and stomach upset. Idiosyncratic side effects are more rare, yet include skin rashes, liver problems and low blood cell counts. Some individual drugs have their own unique set of side effects, that include swelling of the gums, weight gain and even hair loss.\nCANNABIS AS A POTENTIAL TREATMENT\nFor 70 percent of epilepsy patients who cannot control their seizures, having to opt to medication, that has the possibility to induce severe side effects, cannot be an easy road to go down. Fortunately there seem to be alternative options on the horizon. Cannabis is being viewed as a potential treatment for epileptic seizures and large success has been witnessed so far, triggering a large movement of people and organisations who are in favour of its access and medicinal use. The non-psychoactive cannabinoid CBD has gained massive attention due to its apparent positive effects on seizures. And due to the massive legal issues surrounding the psychoactive nature of the cannabis plant, CBD might be an easier doorway into using medical marijuana for many who live in areas for cannabis prohibition.\nThe Epilepsy Foundation is one such organisation, that is open to the idea of utilising medical cannabis to aid epilepsy patients to ease their seizures, stating: \u201cWhen conventional treatments do not work, as is the case for roughly 30% of people with epilepsy, it is not unreasonable to consider cannabis. This is why some states have approved it for 'compassionate access'. However, this should only be considered after a thorough evaluation at a specialised epilepsy centre and once conventional treatments (pharmacological and nonpharmacologic) have been reasonably tried.\"\nCBD may be easier for patients to access when they opt to start treatment with medical cannabis. However there is some evidence, that THC, a psychoactive cannabinoid, may also be effective in the treatment of the condition. Several states within the United States such as Texas, New York, Louisiana, Tennessee, Alabama, Utah and Wisconsin have passed legislation that allows patients access to CBD treatment only. Although this is a step in the right direction, it also actively blocks access to other medicinal compounds, that may help epilepsy, such as THC and the many other cannabinoids present in the cannabis plant.\nPerhaps the most well known case study for the use of medical cannabis in cases of epilepsy is that of nine-year-old Colorado resident Charlotte Figi. After not responding to conventional treatment, her condition saw dramatic improvement after the use of cannabis oil, that contained both CBD and THC. Charlotte went from experiencing a massive 50 convulsive seizures each day, to only 2-3 per month. This is a staggering improvement, one that proves both CBD and THC are highly effective medicines, and research should be prioritised. Her case study was published by the journal Epilepsia, in which the authors stated in reference to the THC/CBD oil, \u201cThis extract, slowly titrated over weeks and given in conjunction with her existing antiepileptic drug regimen, reduced Charlotte\u2019s seizure frequency from nearly 50 convulsive seizures per day to now 2-3 nocturnal convulsions per month. This effect has persisted for the last 20 months, and Charlotte has been successfully weaned from her other antiepileptic drugs. We briefly reviewed some of the history, preclinical and clinical data, and controversies surrounding the use of medical marijuana for the treatment of epilepsy, and make a case that the desire to isolate and treat with pharmaceutical grade compounds from cannabis (specifically CBD) may be inferior to therapy with whole plant extracts\u201d.\nSeveral studies have been conducted in order to investigate the effects, that cannabis has on epileptic seizures. Researchers at the VCU Department of Neurology and the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology have studied the effects of cannabis on epilepsy for some time and showed, that cannabinoids, that are effective at treating seizures, work by interacting with the CB1 receptor, an aspect of the endocannabinoid system. These researchers studied the effects of cannabinoids on live animals experiencing seizures, they state, \u201cAlthough marijuana is illegal in the United States, individuals both here and abroad report, that marijuana has been therapeutic for them in the treatment of a variety of ailment, including epilepsy\u201d.\nThe researchers administered cannabis extract, synthetic cannabinoids and common anticonvulsant drugs to the animals. Both the cannabis extract and synthetic cannabis drugs totally eliminated the animals seizures. Team members stated, \u201cThis study indicates, that cannabinoids may offer unique advantages in treating seizures compared with currently prescribed anticonvulsants\u201d, adding, \u201cIt shows not only the anticonvulsant activity of exogenously applied cannabinoids, but also suggests, that the brain\u2019s cannabinoid system works to limit seizure duration by activating the CB1 receptor. Understanding the factors, that contribute to seizure duration and termination has important implications for our ability to treat epilepsy and for the potential development of novel anticonvulsant agents\u201d.\nFurther research includes a survey published in the journal Epilepsy & Behaviour. The survey consisted of parents who were using a facebook group to share and discuss information regarding the use of cannabis in the treatment of their children who suffered from seizures. Information obtained from the survey shows, that the average amount of conventional medication given to the children before using cannabis was 12. The results from using cannabis seem to be highly effective. 84 percent of parents said the number of their child\u2019s seizures reduced. 11 percent reported complete success, with their children experiencing no more seizures. 42 percent of parents stated, that their child has experienced over 80 percent less seizures and a further 32 percent said their child\u2019s seizures had reduced. The only side effects experienced were drowsiness and fatigue. However, children also experienced increased alertness, better mood and improved sleep.\nThe studies mentioned here bring great promise to those looking for a safe and effective treatment to epileptic seizures, and these are only a small example of the research, that has been conducted so far. However, it is paramount, that research is allowed to continue and that legality and prohibition does not get in the way of progress, that will help to enrich the quality of a person's life. CBD and THC are only 2 of hundreds of different cannabinoids found within the cannabis plant. Research is emerging, detailing that some of these other molecules also have medicinal effects. The future is looking very bright for those suffering from epilepsy, and countless other conditions, in regards to what cannabis can and will achieve as a powerful herbal medicine.",

While the wins came against cellar dwellers Minnesota and Indianapolis and a banged-up Raiders team missing its leading passer, scorer and rusher for most of the game, the Chiefs aren\u2019t apologizing.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have too many pretty games but as long as we come away with the victory that\u2019s all that matters,\u201d said cornerback Brandon Carr, who had one interception. \u201cWe\u2019re definitely making progress and trying to keep this thing going.\u201d\nThe Raiders\u2019 promising season was jolted last week when starting quarterback Jason Campbell was knocked out with a broken collarbone. Coach Hue Jackson moved quickly to get a replacement by trading for Palmer on Tuesday.\nPalmer had been working out on his own in Southern California. Because of his rust and unfamiliarity with his teammates and the playbook, Palmer did not start in his debut.\nIt didn\u2019t end up mattering because neither quarterback was able to do much besides throwing interceptions.\nBoller was 7 for 14 for 61 yards and became the first Raiders quarterback to throw three interceptions in the first half since Donald Hollas in 1998 against Miami. Palmer went 8 for 21 for 116 yards with the three interceptions.\nPalmer now has the bye week to get up to speed before making his first start Nov. 6 at home against Denver.\n\u201cWe\u2019re not blinking,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cThis football team is not going to blink. We have to play better. We have to play better offensively. I take full responsibility.\u201d\nThis marked the first time the Raiders had thrown six interceptions in a game since that 1998 game against the Dolphins and the Chiefs had their first six-interception game since 1984 against Seattle.\n\u201cWe knew that they had a quarterback controversy,\u201d Lewis said. \u201cWe studied film and studied their routes and that they were going to give him a limited playbook. When we had the opportunity to make big plays and capitalize, that\u2019s what we did. And we did a good job with it.\u201d\nJackson was coy all week about whether Boller or Palmer would start at quarterback in Oakland\u2019s first game since Jason Campbell broke his collarbone. With star running back Darren McFadden leaving in the first quarter with an injured right foot, it didn\u2019t much matter.\nOakland moved into Kansas City territory on its first drive and tried to run a trick play on third-and-1 that backfired. Third quarterback Terrelle Pryor lined up at receiver and went in motion to behind the center and took a quick snap for a keeper. The Raiders were called for a false start because Pryor was not set for a second.\nOn the next play, Boller threw an out pass to Jacoby Ford that Lewis stepped in front off and returned 59 yards for the touchdown to give the Chiefs a 7-0 lead.\nThe boos for Boller started but Palmer remained on the sideline with a baseball hat. Boller threw his second interception on a deep pass to Denarius Moore that Flowers caught. The Chiefs then drove 61 yards for a score Le\u2019Ron McClain\u2019s 1-yard run.\nBoller was intercepted again late in the half.\n\u201cI\u2019m just extremely frustrated,\u201d Boller said. \u201cI had an opportunity to go there. It just didn\u2019t go as planned. Definitely not my best outing. I feel bad for my teammates. I feel like I let my teammates down. There\u2019s not much to say. The play speaks for itself.\u201d",

        "title": "Softball Ends Season with Runner-Up WISL Honors - Santa Clara",
        "raw_content": "Softball Ends Season with Runner-Up WISL Honors\nThe Santa Clara University softball team recently completed its season, posting a 17-40 record and placing second at the Western Independent Softball League Championship. Under second-year head coach Marcy Crouch, the Broncos posted the most wins in the last three years. A few season highlights:\nJunior Deanna Rodriguez threw a complete game shutout for her third straight win as Santa Clara upset top-seeded Loyola Marymount 1-0 for a chance at the Western Independent Softball League title. The Broncos ended up falling to Saint Mary's 3-2 in extra innings to place second in the tournament, held May 11-13 in Los Angeles. For her efforts, Rodriguez, along with sophomore outfielder Coresta Salas, earned WISL All-Tournament Team honors. The Broncos scored the game-winning run in the top of the sixth when Salas scored on Rodriguez's double. In the championship contest, Saint Mary's took a 1-0 lead in the fourth, but SCU evened the game in the top of the sixth when Lauren Fissori's single scored Salas. With the game in extra innings, Santa Clara scored Tracie Hall from second on Vanessa Werner's single. But the Gael's struck right back and loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom of the eighth. SMC tied the game at two, and then won the WISL title with a sacrifice fly.\nThe Broncos' biggest win of the season came on March 2, against ninth-ranked Arizona State on the Sun Devils' home field in Tempe. It was the first time Santa Clara had ever defeated ASU in the teams' 10-game series. ASU took the early 1-0 lead in the third inning, but the Broncos responded in the fourth and fifth innings with two unearned runs. Sophomore Tracie Hall walked to lead off the sixth and advanced to second on junior Deanna Rodriguez's single to center field. Junior Kristi Harrington then sacrificed the runners up one base each. Sophomore Coresta Salas pinch hit into a fielder's choice, but Hall beat the throw home for the third run. Salas then stole second, while Rodriguez came home to score. Arizona State added a home run in the bottom of that inning for the final tally.\nThe Bronco defense centered around a solid pitching core in senior left-hander Krista Barry and junior right-hander Deanna Rodriguez. The two continued their assault on the record books. Barry finished her career with 33 wins, the second-highest total in SCU history. She was also second in appearances (141), starts (122), innings pitched (770) and shutouts (11). She ranks third all-time in complete games (79) and strikeouts (213), while logging the fifth-best ERA at 3.26. With one year left to add to her totals, Rodriguez is already second in career strikeouts (296), fourth in appearances (87) and shutouts (7) and fifth in career wins (18) starts (73), complete games (44) innings pitched. Additionally, Barry's 2.13 ERA for 2001 just missed the single-season top-five list.\nSophomore outfielder Coresta Salas nailed the Broncos' only home run of the season. She did it against UC Santa Barbara in the Easton Invitational, hosted by the Gauchos. It marks the second straight season the Broncos have only posted one home run, as current short stop Tracie Hall did it as a freshman in 2000.\nJunior outfielder Sydney Wiginton continues to add to the school's stolen base record she set last season. With 77 stolen bags, she has 40 more Jill Rivera's four-year total of 37 -- current Bronco Jenny's older sister. After stealing an all-time season best 42 bases as a freshman, Wiginton added 16 as a sophomore and 19 this past season. Additionally, she entered the career charts at fifth place in both runs (61) and hits (132).",

        "raw_content": "Attack Types: Imprisonment | Travel Restrictions\nInstitution(s):Bo\u011fazi\u00e7i University | Istanbul Bilgi University\nOn November 16, 2018, Turkish authorities reportedly detained Turgut Tarhanl\u0131, dean of the faculty of law at \u0130stanbul Bilgi University, and Betul Tanbay, professor of mathematics at Bo\u011fazi\u00e7i University, along with ten others, for alleged connections to human rights activist Osman Kavala and a series of protests that took place across Turkey in 2013.\nMr. Kavala, a business leader who co-founded the civil society organization Anadolu K\u00fclt\u00fcr in 2002, was detained in October 2017, apparently based on accusations that he organized the 2013 Gezi Park protests \u2014 a series of social protests which began in Istanbul and, over the course of that summer, spread throughout the country \u2014 and sought to \u201c\u2018abolish\u2019 the constitutional order and the government.\u201d Authorities reportedly further suspect Mr. Kavala of having connections to the violent July 2016 coup attempt.\nPro-government media outlets reportedly describe Mr. Kavala as \u201cTurkey\u2019s Soros,\u201d a reference to American-Hungarian philanthropist George Soros, who founded the Open Society Foundations (OSF) and has been criticized by leaders in Hungary and Russia for funding human rights and civil society projects in those countries.\nIn the early morning of November 16, 2018, police detained Professors Tarhanl\u0131 and Tanbay, along with ten others, including several staff members from Anadolu K\u00fclt\u00fcr and the head of the Turkish offices of OSF, based on their alleged connections to Mr. Kavala and their alleged participation in the Gezi Park protests. Later in the day, authorities released Professor Tarhanl\u0131 and two others after taking their statements. The three have reportedly been barred from leaving the country.\nAs of this report, additional information, including what charges are being brought, if any, and when the twelve may appear in court, has not been disclosed.\nScholars at Risk is concerned about the use of detentions and travel restrictions against scholars and members of civil society groups in apparent retaliation for their nonviolent exercise of the right to freedom of association \u2014 conduct that is expressly protected under international human rights instruments including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which Turkey is a party. While State authorities have a right to maintain order and respond to legitimate security concerns, such actions must comply with States\u2019 human rights obligations, including those relating to freedom of association, due process and academic freedom. In addition to the harm to the immediate victims, such incidents have a chilling effect on academic freedom and undermine democratic society generally.\nUPDATE: On November 17, Turkish authorities released Professor Tanbay and ten others from detention after testifying to police.\nhttp://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/turkey-releases-12-rights-activists-as-us-urges-respect-for-freedoms-138958\nhttp://bianet.org/english/politics/202711-prof-dr-turgut-tarhanli-asena-gunal-bora-sari-released\nhttps://www.middleeasteye.net/news/turkey-detains-12-people-including-academics-organising-gezi-protests-30782222\nhttps://www.reuters.com/article/us-turkey-security-academics/turkish-police-detain-12-in-probe-of-rights-activist-media-idUSKCN1NL0OT\nhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/turkish-police-detain-12-academics-activists-in-raids/2018/11/16/f069ffbc-e974-11e8-8449-1ff263609a31_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.63d8d8d3432f\nhttp://www.hurriyet.com.tr/gundem/son-dakika-bazi-ogretim-uyeleri-gozaltina-alindi-41020933\nhttp://www.anadolukultur.org/en/about/general-information/3232\nhttps://bianet.org/english/society/202664-operation-against-anadolu-kultur-several-people-taken-into-custody\nhttps://pen-international.org/news/turkey-more-academics-and-journalists-arrested-in-continuing-crackdown",

We see this as including (but not being limited to): machine learning, data analytics, virtual reality and user experience/design. We are also looking at the wider implications of AI to research and drug discovery.\nThis item focusses on the \u2018ICT\u2019 aspects. Here\u2019s why:\nOutside of screening programs and public health initiatives, the majority of health care systems rely on the presentation of the citizen to the healthcare system with symptoms of one kind or another. The determination of the importance of these symptoms and the need for further medical investigation relies heavily on the patient-clinician interaction at appointments where clinical data is captured, decisions made on further investigation and information regarding this conveyed to the patient.\nFor further info read more at\nhttps://ktn-uk.co.uk/news/artificial-intelligence-and-ict-in-healthcare\nCommsworld partners with CGI On Edinburgh Project\nBellrock extends software deal with EDF Energy",

        "raw_content": "A look at US-Taliban relations\nOriginally published June 18, 2013 at 12:14 pm Updated June 18, 2013 at 9:43 pm\nWord that the Taliban and U.S. will hold formal talks to find a political solution to end nearly 12 years of war in Afghanistan comes after years of failed efforts at peace talks. A look at the evolution of U.S. relations with the Taliban:\n-The Taliban, an Islamic fundamentalist movement, emerged from the Pakistani-trained mujahedeen, or holy warriors, who battled the Soviet Union\u2019s occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s with secret backing by the CIA.\n-Civil war broke out when the pro-Soviet Afghan government collapsed following the departure of Moscow\u2019s troops. The U.S. took an arms-length position of neutrality as rival warlords shelled Kabul into ruins.\n-The Taliban emerged as a united military and political force in 1994 and took control of Afghanistan in 1996. Led by Mullah Mohammed Omar, the Afghan Taliban sheltered Osama bin Laden in the years leading up to the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. But the group was toppled shortly after the U.S. and allied invasion one month later.\n-The U.S.-led invasion leveraged the firepower of factions, such as the Northern Alliance, who had held out against the Taliban after it seized power in 1996. CIA and U.S. special operations support for anti-Taliban forces enabled the U.S. to oust the Islamists by December 2001 without committing large numbers of U.S. ground troops.\n-With U.S. attention focused largely on Iraq after the U.S. invasion there in 2003, the Taliban appeared to have been defeated as a military threat. But by 2005 it was beginning to make a comeback, gradually showing signs of improved training and better equipping, while using territory inside Pakistan as a sanctuary.\n-By early 2009, Taliban gains had reached the point where the top American commander in Afghanistan offered the remarkable comment that the military situation in the south, the Taliban\u2019s heartland, was \u201cat best, stalemated.\u201d In December 2009 President Barack Obama announced a U.S. troop \u201csurge,\u201d with a goal of reversing the Taliban\u2019s momentum and eventually compelling them to come to the peace table.",

Gift cards in the U.S. and some countries do not carry an expiration date; therefore, customers and members can redeem their gift cards for merchandise indefinitely. Gift cards in some countries where the Company does business have expiration dates. While gift cards are generally redeemed within 12 months, a certain number of gift cards, both with and without expiration dates, will not be fully redeemed. Management estimates unredeemed balances and recognizes revenue for these amounts in membership and other income in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income over the expected redemption period. Management periodically reviews and updates its estimates.\nIn December 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (\"SAB 118\"), in response to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (\"Tax Act\"). The Company recorded a provisional benefit, as allowed by SAB 118, of $207 million during fiscal 2018 and an additional provisional expense of $123 million and benefit of $19 million during the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively. The adjustments to the provisional amounts are related to refinements of the transition tax for changes in assumptions.\nThe Company has previously asserted all its unremitted earnings offshore were permanently reinvested. In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company changed its repatriation assertion for certain historical and fiscal 2019 earnings. The Company now plans to repatriate approximately $5 billion of cash at a cost of approximately $80 million. The tax cost of repatriating historical earnings was recorded as a discrete tax charge in the current quarter, while the tax cost of repatriating current year earnings was included in the annualized effective tax rate. The Company is continuing its analysis and awaits anticipated technical guidance surrounding any potential repatriation plans beyond fiscal 2019. Final determination and disclosure will be made as more information is received, including guidance from the IRS and Treasury.\nIn addition to the GILTI and repatriation evaluations, management is also still evaluating the Tax Act with respect to the deferred tax remeasurement, transition tax and certain policy elections. The ultimate impacts of the Tax Act may differ from provisional amounts due to gathering additional information to more precisely compute the amount of tax, changes in\ninterpretations and assumptions, and additional regulatory guidance that may be issued. The Company expects to continue to revise the provisional amounts during the allowable measurement period of one year from the enactment as the Company refines its analysis of the new rules and as new guidance is issued.\nThe Company's U.S. statutory tax rate is 21%. The Company's effective income tax rate was 283% and 52% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively. The loss related to the sale of a majority stake in the Company's retail operations in Brazil (\"Walmart Brazil\") increased the effective tax rate 227% and 28% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively, as it provided minimal realizable tax benefit. Additionally, for the three months ended July 31, 2018, the adjustment in the provisional amount recorded related to the Tax Act increased the effective tax rate by 31%.\nIn November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows\u2013Restricted Cash (Topic 230), which requires restricted cash to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning and ending amounts on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this ASU on February 1, 2018. Restricted cash held outside of cash and cash equivalents is primarily recorded in other-long term assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and was $22 million as of July 31, 2018 and was approximately $0.3 billion as of January 31, 2018 and July 31, 2017.\nIn February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lease assets and liabilities to be recorded on the balance sheet. Certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. The Company will adopt this ASU and related amendments on February 1, 2019 and expects to elect certain practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance. Additionally, the Company will elect the optional transition method that allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption and will not restate prior periods. Management is implementing new lease systems in connection with the adoption of this ASU; however, these systems are still being developed to comply with the new ASU.\nAlthough management continues to evaluate the effect to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures, management currently estimates total assets and liabilities will increase approximately $14 billion to $18 billion upon adoption, before considering deferred taxes. This estimate could change as the Company continues to progress with implementation and will also fluctuate based on the lease portfolio and discount rates as of the adoption date. Management does not expect a material impact to the Company\u2019s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows.\nNote 2. Net Income or Loss Per Common Share\nBasic net income or loss per common share attributable to Walmart is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the relevant period. Diluted net income or loss per common share attributable to Walmart is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the relevant period adjusted for the dilutive effect of share-based awards. The Company did not have significant share-based awards outstanding that were anti-dilutive and not included in the calculation of diluted net income per common share attributable to Walmart for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017. Further, the calculation of diluted net loss per common share attributable to Walmart for the three months ended July 31, 2018 does not include the effect of stock options and other share-based awards as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, as it would reduce the net loss per common share. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used to determine basic and diluted net income per common share attributable to Walmart:\nNet income (loss) per common share attributable to Walmart\nAmounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income for derivative instruments are recorded in interest, net, in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, and amounts reclassified for the minimum pension liability are recorded in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.\nThe Company has various committed lines of credit in the U.S., committed with 22 financial institutions, used to support its commercial paper program. In May 2018, the Company renewed and extended its existing five year credit facility of $5.0 billion and renewed and extended its 364-day revolving credit facility and increased it to $10.0 billion from $7.5 billion. In total, the Company has committed lines of credit in the U.S. of $15.0 billion at July 31, 2018 and $12.5 billion at January 31, 2018, all undrawn.\nInformation on long-term debt issued during the six months ended July 31, 2018, to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Flipkart acquisition discussed in Note 10 and for general corporate purposes, is as follows:\nThe Company has equity investments, primarily its investment in JD, measured at fair value on a recurring basis included in other long-term assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Beginning in fiscal 2019 due to the adoption of the new financial instrument standard, changes in fair value are recorded in other gains and losses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Additional detail about the Company's two portions of the investment in JD are as follows:\nFair Value as of July 31, 2018\n(3) The decreases in fair value for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018 of $0.1 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, were recognized in net income and included in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.\nThe Company also holds derivative instruments. Derivative fair values are the estimated amounts the Company would receive or pay upon termination of the related derivative agreements as of the reporting dates. The fair values have been measured using the income approach and Level 2 inputs, which include the relevant interest rate and foreign currency forward curves. As of July 31, 2018 and January 31, 2018, the notional amounts and fair values of these derivatives were as follows:\nIn addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company's assets and liabilities are also subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges.\nAs discussed in Note 10, the Company met the criteria to recognize Walmart Brazil as held for sale in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Prior to meeting the held for sale criteria, the carrying values of the long-lived assets were concluded to be recoverable based upon cash flows expected to be generated over the assets' useful lives. When the sale of Walmart Brazil became probable, the Company reclassified the related assets and liabilities to held for sale and measured the disposal group at fair value, less costs to sell. The assets of the disposal group totaled $3.3 billion and were comprised of $1.0 billion in current assets, $1.6 billion in property and equipment and property under capital lease and financing obligations, net, and $0.7 billion of other long-term assets. These assets were fully impaired during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 as the carrying value of the disposal group exceeded the fair value, less costs to sell. This impairment charge was included in the $4.8 billion loss recorde\nd in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as part of the Walmart International segment for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018.\nThe Company only enters into derivative transactions with counterparties rated \"A-\" or better by nationally recognized credit rating agencies. Subsequent to entering into derivative transactions, the Company regularly monitors the credit ratings of its counterparties. In connection with various derivative agreements, including master netting arrangements, the Company held cash collateral from counterparties of $224 million and $279 million at July 31, 2018 and January 31, 2018, respectively. The Company records cash collateral received as amounts due to the counterparties exclusive of any derivative asset. Furthermore, as part of the master netting arrangements with each of these counterparties, the Company is also required to post collateral with a counterparty if the Company's net derivative liability position exceeds $150 million with such counterparties. The Company did not have any cash collateral posted with counterparties at July 31, 2018 or January 31, 2018. The Company records cash collateral it posts with counterparties as amounts receivable from those counterparties exclusive of any derivative liability.\nThe Company has issued foreign-currency-denominated long-term debt as hedges of net investments of certain of its foreign operations. These foreign-currency-denominated long-term debt issuances are designated and qualify as nonderivative hedging instruments. Accordingly, the foreign currency translation of these debt instruments is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, offsetting the foreign currency translation adjustment of the related net investments that is also recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. At July 31, 2018 and January 31, 2018, the Company had \u00a5180 billion of outstanding long-term debt designated as a hedge of its net investment in Japan, as well as outstanding long-term debt of \u00a31.7 billion at July 31, 2018 and January 31, 2018, that was designated as a hedge of its net investment in the United Kingdom. These nonderivative net investment hedges will mature on dates ranging from July 2020 to January 2039.\nFrom time to time, the Company repurchases shares of its common stock under share repurchase programs authorized by the Company's Board of Directors. All repurchases made during the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, were made under the plan in effect at the beginning of the fiscal year. The current $20 billion share repurchase program approved in October 2017 has no expiration date or other restrictions limiting the period over which the Company can make share repurchases. As of July 31, 2018, authorization for $16.9 billion of share repurchases remained under the current share repurchase program. Any repurchased shares are constructively retired and returned to an unissued status.\nASDA Stores Ltd. (\"Asda\"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is a defendant in over 26,000 equal value (\"Equal Value\") claims that began in 2008 and are proceeding before an Employment Tribunal in Manchester (the \"Employment Tribunal\") in the United Kingdom (\"UK\") on behalf of current and former Asda store employees, and further claims may be asserted in the future. The claimants allege that the work performed by female employees in Asda's retail stores is of equal value in terms of, among other things, the demands of their jobs compared to that of male employees working in Asda's warehouse and distribution facilities, and that the disparity in pay between these different job positions is not objectively justified. As a result, claimants are requesting differential back pay based on higher wage rates in the warehouse and distribution facilities and higher wage rates on a prospective basis.\nOn March 23, 2015, Asda asked the Employment Tribunal to stay all proceedings and to \"strike out\" substantially all of the claims because the claimants had not adhered to the Tribunal's procedural rule for including multiple claimants on the same claim form. On July 23, 2015, the Employment Tribunal denied Asda's requests. Following additional proceedings, on June 20, 2017, the Employment Appeal Tribunal ruled in favor of Asda on the \"strike out\" issue and remitted the matter to the Employment Tribunal to determine whether the improperly filed claims should be struck out. On July 12, 2017, claimants sought permission from the Court of Appeals to appeal this ruling, which was granted on October 3, 2017. A hearing before the Court of Appeals is scheduled for October 23, 2018.\nIn June 2018, the Company agreed to sell an 80 percent stake of Walmart Brazil to Advent International (\"Advent\"). Under the terms, the Company may receive up to $250 million in contingent consideration, Advent will contribute additional capital to the business over a three-year period, and Walmart agreed to indemnify Advent for a fixed amount of certain pre-closing tax and legal contingencies and other matters (\"the Indemnity\"). As a result, the disposal group was classified as held for sale in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and consisted of the following:\nAssets of $3.3 billion, which were fully impaired as discussed in Note 5 upon meeting the held for sale criteria;\nLiabilities of $1.3 billion, consisting of $0.7 billion in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $0.1 billion of capital lease and financing obligations, and $0.5 billion of deferred taxes and other long-term liabilities, which were reclassified to accrued liabilities upon meeting the held for sale criteria; and\nCumulative foreign currency translation loss of $2 billion, which will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 upon closure of the sale.\nThe carrying value of the disposal group exceeded the fair value less costs to sell, and as a result, the Company recorded a pre-tax net loss of approximately $4.8 billion in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. In calculating the loss, the fair value of the disposal group was reduced by approximately $800 million related to the estimated value of the Indemnity.\nThe sale was completed in August 2018. As a result, beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company will deconsolidate the financial statements of Walmart Brazil and account for its remaining 20 percent ownership interest, determined to have no initial value, using the equity method of accounting.\nIn August 2018, the Company acquired approximately 77 percent of the outstanding shares of Flipkart Group (\"Flipkart\"), an Indian-based eCommerce marketplace, for approximately $16 billion of cash, which includes $2 billion of new equity funding. The acquisition increases the Company's investment in India, a large, growing economy. To finance the acquisition, the Company used a combination of cash provided by long-term debt as discussed in Note 4 and cash on hand. Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company will consolidate the financial statements of Flipkart, using a one-month lag, with the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Given the recent closure of the transaction, the Company is in the initial stages of the process to allocate the purchase price of Flipkart and does not yet have an initial allocation available. The Company currently expects the majority of the purchase price to be allocated to trade names and goodwill.\nIn April 2018, the Company entered into a definitive agreement and announced the proposed combination of J Sainsbury plc and Asda Group Limited (\"Asda Group\"), the Company's wholly owned UK retail subsidiary. Under the terms of the combination, the Company would receive approximately 42 percent of the share capital of the combined company. In addition, the Company would receive approximately \u00a33 billion in cash, subject to customary closing adjustments, and retain obligations under the Asda Group defined benefit pension plan. Due to a complex regulatory review process, the outcome of which is uncertain and may take some time to complete, the held for sale classification criteria for the disposal group has not been met as of July 31, 2018. Upon the transaction closing, the Company would deconsolidate the financial statements of Asda Group and account for the ongoing investment in the combined company using the equity method of accounting.\nThe Company is engaged in the operation of retail, wholesale and other units, as well as eCommerce websites, located throughout the U.S., Africa, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Central America, Chile, China, India, Japan, Mexico and the United Kingdom. The Company's operations are conducted in three reportable segments: Walmart U.S., Walmart International and Sam's Club. The Company defines its segments as those operations whose results the chief operating decision maker (\"CODM\") regularly reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources. The Company sells similar individual products and services in each of its segments. It is impractical to segregate and identify revenues for each of these individual products and services entity-wide.\nThree Months Ended July 31, 2018\nOf Walmart U.S.'s total net sales, approximately $3.5 billion and $6.6 billion related to eCommerce for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively.\nOf International's total net sales, approximately $1.0 billion and $1.9 billion related to eCommerce for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively.\nOf Sam's Club's total net sales, approximately $0.7 billion and $1.2 billion related to eCommerce for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively.\nWalmart Inc. (\"Walmart,\" the \"Company,\" \"our,\" or \"we\") is engaged in retail and wholesale operations in various formats around the world. Through our operations, we help people around the world save money and live better \u2013 anytime and anywhere \u2013 in retail stores and through eCommerce. Through innovation, we are striving to create a customer-centric experience that seamlessly integrates digital and physical shopping into an omni-channel offering that saves time for our customers. Physical retail encompasses our brick and mortar presence in each of the markets in which we operate. Digital retail, or eCommerce, is comprised of our eCommerce websites, mobile commerce applications and transactions involving both an eCommerce platform and a physical format, which we refer to as omni-channel. As of July 31, 2018 and prior to the sale of a majority stake of our retail operations in Brazil (\"Walmart Brazil\") discussed below, each week we served nearly 270 million customers who visit our more than 11,700 stores and numerous eCommerce websites under 65 banners in 28 countries. Our strategy is to lead on price, invest to differentiate on access, be competitive on assortment and deliver a great experience. By leading on price we earn the trust of our customers every day by providing a broad assortment of quality merchandise and services at everyday low prices (\"EDLP\"). EDLP is our pricing philosophy under which we price items at a low price every day so our customers trust that our prices will not change under frequent promotional activity. Price leadership is core to who we are. Everyday low cost (\"EDLC\") is our commitment to control expenses so our cost savings can be passed along to our customers. Our physical and digital presence, in which we are investing to integrate into a seamless omni-channel, provides customers convenient access to our broad assortment anytime and anywhere. We strive to give our customers and members a great shopping experience through whichever shopping method they prefer.\nAcquisition of approximately 77 percent of the outstanding shares of Flipkart Group (\"Flipkart\"), an Indian-based eCommerce marketplace, in August 2018 for approximately $16 billion in cash (the \"Flipkart Acquisition\"). Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2018, we will consolidate the financial statements of Flipkart using a one-month lag. Given the recent closure of the transaction, we are in the initial stages of the process to allocate the purchase price of Flipkart and do not yet have an initial allocation available. We currently expect the majority of the purchase price to be allocated to trade names and goodwill. We also expect the ongoing operations of Flipkart to negatively impact fiscal 2019 and 2020 net income, including additional interest expense due to the long-term debt issuance in the second quarter of of fiscal 2019.\nProposed combination of J Sainsbury plc and Asda Group Limited (\"Asda\"), our wholly owned United Kingdom retail subsidiary. Under the terms, we would receive approximately 42 percent of the share capital of the combined company and approximately \u00a33.0 billion in cash, subject to customary closing adjustments, while retaining obligations under the Asda defined benefit pension plan. Due to a complex regulatory review process, the outcome of which is uncertain and may take some time to complete, the held for sale classification criteria for the disposal group has not been met as of July 31, 2018. Upon meeting the held for sale classification criteria for the disposal group, we expect to recognize a loss, the amount of which may fluctuate based on the changes in the value of share capital received and foreign exchange rates.\nDivestiture of 80 percent of Walmart Brazil to Advent International (\u201cAdvent\u201d) in August 2018. We may receive up to $250 million in contingent consideration, Advent will contribute additional capital to the business over a three-year period, and we agreed to indemnify Advent for a fixed amount of certain pre-closing tax and legal contingencies and other matters. When the sale became probable, we recorded a pre-tax net loss of approximately $4.8 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2019.\nProposed divestitures of the banking operations in Walmart Canada and Walmart Chile, both classified as held for sale as of July 31, 2018, and subject to closing procedures, consistent with our focus on core retail capabilities.\nThis discussion, which presents our results for periods occurring in the fiscal year ending January 31, 2019 (\"fiscal 2019\") and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2018 (\"fiscal 2018\"), should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, and the accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended January 31, 2018, the accompanying notes and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our Annual Report of Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2018 incorporated by reference.\nComparable sales is a metric that indicates the performance of our existing stores and clubs by measuring the change in sales for such stores and clubs, including eCommerce sales, for a particular period over the corresponding period in the previous year. The retail industry generally reports comparable sales using the retail calendar (also known as the 4-5-4 calendar). To be consistent with the retail industry, we provide comparable sales using the retail calendar in our quarterly earnings releases. However, when we discuss our comparable sales below, we are referring to our calendar comparable sales calculated using our fiscal calendar. As our fiscal calendar differs from the retail calendar, our fiscal calendar comparable sales also differ from the retail calendar comparable sales provided in our quarterly earnings releases. Calendar comparable sales, as well as the impact of fuel, for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, were as follows:\nComparable sales in the U.S., including fuel, increased 5.1% and 4.0% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively, when compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year. Total U.S. comparable sales were driven by strong comparable sales growth at both the Walmart U.S. and Sam's Club segments. The Walmart U.S. segment had growth of 4.7% and 3.5% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively, driven by ticket and traffic growth, and aided by warmer weather in the second quarter. For the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, the Walmart U.S. segment's eCommerce sales positively impacted comparable sales by approximately 1.1% and 0.9%, respectively. Comparable sales at the Sam's Club segment were 7.6% and 6.5% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively, driven by strong traffic, which is partially due to transfers of sales from our closed clubs to our existing clubs. The increase in comparable sales at the Sam's Club segment was partially offset by reduced tobacco sales. The Sam's Club segment's eCommerce sales positively impacted comparable sales by approximately 0.9% for both the three and six months ended July 31, 2018.\nFor the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, we leveraged operating expenses, which decreased 19 and 4 basis points as a percentage of net sales when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. The primary driver of the expense leverage was Walmart U.S. strong sales performance in conjunction with productivity improvements that more than offset investments in eCommerce and technology.\nWe include Return on Assets (\"ROA\"), the most directly comparable measure based on our financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (\"GAAP\"), and Return on Investment (\"ROI\") as metrics to assess returns on assets. While ROI is considered a non-GAAP financial measure, management believes ROI is a meaningful metric to share with investors because it helps investors assess how effectively Walmart is deploying its assets. Trends in ROI can fluctuate over time as management balances long-term strategic initiatives with possible short-term impacts. ROA was 2.9% and 6.7% for the trailing twelve months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decline in ROA was primarily due to the decrease in consolidated net income over the trailing twelve months which was the result of the $4.5 billion net loss related to the sale of a majority stake in Walmart Brazil, losses on extinguishment of debt in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2018, losses on our JD.com investment, and restructuring and impairment charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. ROI was 13.8% and 15.0% for the trailing twelve months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decline in ROI was due to the decrease in operating income over the trailing twelve months, which was primarily driven by the restructuring and impairment charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. Additionally, an increase in average total assets also contributed to the decline of ROI, primarily driven by our higher cash balance at July 31, 2018 as a result of our recent $15.9 billion net proceeds from issuance of long-term debt and changes in the value of our JD.com investment.\nWe define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities in a period minus payments for property and equipment made in the same period. We had net cash provided by operating activities of $11.1 billion and $11.4 billion for the six months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the timing of vendor payments, partially offset by a decrease in tax payments primarily as a result of the Tax Reform and Jobs Act of 2017 (\"Tax Reform\"). We generated free cash flow of $6.8 billion for the six months ended July 31, 2018, which was relatively flat compared to $6.9 billion for the six months ended July 31, 2017.",

        "raw_content": "Wi-Fi, or Wireless Fidelity is freedom :it allows you to connect to the internet from your couch at home, in a hotel room or a conferance room at work without wires . Wi-Fi is a wireless technology like a cell phone. Wi-Fi enabled computers send and receive data indoors and out; anywhere within the range of a base station. And the best thing of all, it is fast.\nHowever you only have true freedom to be connected any where if your computer is configured with a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED radio (a PC card or similar device). Wi-Fi certification means that you will be able able to connect anywhere there are other Wi-Fi CERTIFIED products - whether you are at home ,office , airports, coffee shops and other public areas equipped with a Wi-Fi access availability.Wi-Fi will be a major face behind hotspots , to a much greater extent.More than 400 airports and hotels in the US are targeted as Wi-Fi hotspots.\nThe Wi-Fi CERTIFIED logo is your only assurance that the product has met rigorous interoperability testing requirements to assure products from different vendors will work together. The Wi-Fi CERTIFIED logo means that it is a \"safe\" buy.\nWi-Fi certification comes from the Wi-Fi Alliance, a non profit international trade organisation that tests 802.11 based wireless equipment to make sure that it meets the Wi-Fi standard and works with all other manufacturer's Wi-Fi equipment on the market. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WELA) also has a Wi-Fi certification program for Wi-Fi products that meet interoperability standards.\nIt is an international organisation devoted to certifying interoperability of 802.11 products and to promoting 802.11as the global wireless LAN std across all market segment.\nIEEE 802.11 ARCHITECTURES\nIn IEEE's proposed standard for wireless LANs (IEEE 802.11), there are two different ways to configure a network: ad-hoc and infrastructure. In the ad-hoc network, computers are brought together to form a network \"on the fly.\" As shown in Figure 1, there is no structure to the network; there are no fixed points; and usually every node is able to communicate with every other node.\nA good example of this is the aforementioned meeting where employees bring laptop computers together to communicate and share design or financial information. Although it seems that order would be difficult to maintain in this type of network, algorithms such as the spokesman election algorithm (SEA) [4] have been designed to \"elect\" one machine as the base station (master) of the network with the others being slaves. Another algorithm in ad-hoc network architectures uses a broadcast and flooding method to all other nodes to establish who's who.",

A recent series of events in our provinces of New Brunswick, Ontario and Manitoba reflects a worrisome trend for the future of French and our official language communities.\nThe place of bilingualism, linguistic duality and official language minority communities is being challenged once again \u2014 this raises serious questions about the health of our democracy.\nIn its economic statement of November 15, the Ontario government announced that it is eliminating the position of French Language Services Commissioner of Ontario and withdrawing funding for a French-language university in the province.\nFar from being an unnecessary expense, Ontario\u2019s Office of the French Language Services Commissioner plays a crucial role in advancing key issues such as access to French-language health services, justice and francophone immigration.\nThe Ontario commissioner has also co-signed insightful reports with Canada\u2019s Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages and the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages for New Brunswick, and has developed expertise in the active offer of services in both official languages.\nWithdrawing funding for a French-language university in Ontario also marks a significant setback for Canada\u2019s francophone communities and the country as a whole. This initiative would have invested in Ontario's economic development by creating jobs and training highly skilled bilingual workers.\nIt also would have responded to the pressing needs of francophones in the Toronto area, where only 27% of students pursue post-secondary studies in French given the limited number of university programs in that language. When the legislation creating this university was passed in December 2017, francophones across Canada rejoiced.\nLanguage rights are being eroded in other parts of the country as well. For example, since the recent election in New Brunswick, the economy has been used to justify the possible elimination of key institutions that promote bilingualism and linguistic duality, including the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages for New Brunswick.\nIn Manitoba, the position of assistant deputy minister of the Department of Education and Training was eliminated for economic reasons as well, weakening francophones' access to education in their language.\nLanguage rights in Canada are enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Equality of the two official languages is provided for in federal legislation and in several provincial laws. Linguistic duality and bilingualism are the very foundations of our country and together we have made them an intrinsic part of our common history.\nThe Government of Canada is committed to modernizing the Official Languages Act and will be responsible for its implementation and promotion in all provinces and territories.\nWe join the 84% of Canadians who supported bilingualism and the official languages in the 2016 survey sponsored by Canada\u2019s Commissioner of Official Languages. Canada\u2019s bilingualism, linguistic duality and official language communities are valuable assets for our country.\nWe invite all of you to participate in this dialogue and to embrace with strength and conviction these fundamental values that shape our collective future.\nSenator Ren\u00e9 Cormier chairs the Senate Committee on Official Languages. He represents New Brunswick.\nSenator Jos\u00e9e Forest-Niesing represents Ontario.\nSenator Raymonde Gagn\u00e9 is a member of the Senate Committee on Official Languages. She represents Manitoba.\nSenator Lucie Moncion is a member of the Senate Committee on Official Languages.

        "raw_content": "Eva Longoria at the DNC: \u201cI don\u2019t need a tax break\nEva Longoria made her next step into the political world by giving a speech at the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.\nEva Longoria has always been a bit on the political side, but the former Desperate Housewives actress has really stepped up her support for President Barack Obama with this election cycle.\nThe 37-year-old actress is the co-chair of his national re-election committee and gave a speech in support of the president during Thursday night\u2019s meeting of the Democratic National Convention.\nLongoria\u2019s thoughts? Mainly, we need to keep jobs in the United States and help boost the middle class.\n\u201cMitt Romney would raise taxes on middle-class families to cut his own \u2014 and mine,\u201d she told the Charlotte crowd. \u201cAnd that\u2019s not who we are as a nation, and let me tell you why: because the Eva Longoria who worked at Wendy\u2019s flipping burgers \u2014 she needed a tax break. But the Eva Longoria who works on movie sets does not.\u201d\nThe actress added that she understands what it\u2019s like to be in debt and climb out of it.\n\u201cAnd just like our president and first lady, I took out loans to pay for school. I changed oil in a mechanic shop, I flipped burgers at Wendy\u2019s, I taught aerobics, and I worked on campus to pay them back,\u201d she said.\n\u201cPresident Obama is fighting for changes that grow the economy from the middle out and help all Americans succeed \u2014 jobs, education, health reform, the DREAM Act, equal pay for women,\u201d she said. \u201cHe is moving us forward with opportunity today for prosperity tomorrow. Mitt Romney wants to take us back to yesterday.\u201d\nShe closed out her speech asking people to \u201cfight for the American dream.\u201d\n\u201cAnd we know how to do that. Let\u2019s re-elect President Obama!

        "title": "9 Celebrities Who May or May Not Be Wiccan or Pagan \u2013 SheKnows",
        "raw_content": "9 Celebrities Who May or May Not Be Wiccan or Pagan\nImage: Paul Morigi/Getty Images\nWicca is a religion cloaked in mystery, and practitioners typically like to keep their worship to themselves \u2014 but that doesn\u2019t mean there aren\u2019t plenty of them out there, and even celebrities like to get a little witchy.\nA couple members of the Hollywood elite have been pretty open about practicing Wicca, while others just seem to allude to it. Which, of course, leads to plenty of speculation and gossip.\nWe found some loud and proud Wiccans and Pagans (basically, people who worship a god or gods that don\u2019t fall under a mainstream religion) and dug up some quotes from other celebs who just really make it seem like they are.\nOriginally published December 2015. Updated June 2017.\nIn 1996, Shepherd famously thanked the Great Goddess at the Golden Globe Awards.\n\u201cThanks to the Great Goddess in all her guises. May she bring us peace, joy and righteous anger. Blessed be,\u201d she said in her speech.\nShe has said she considers herself \u201ca goddess-worshiping Christian Pagan Buddhist,\u201d but in 2014, she came out and said she has turned back to Christianity. However, this was also for part of a Christian-themed film, so who knows what was for Hollywood and what Shepherd is actually practicing in real life. All I know is that she got away with saying \u201cBlessed be\u201d in front of millions of people without being trolled. If Twitter had been around in 1996\u2026.\nBack in 2013, Housewives fans got to peek into the glamorous life of a Real Housewives real Wiccan.\nCarlton Gebbia said during an interview with Bravo that she was excited (and nervous) to show off what it\u2019s like raising her children, practicing magic and showing her Halloween (Samhain) rituals. She said she considers herself a \u201csole practitioner\u201d and would label herself a Celtic Pagan witch who has practiced her entire life.\nImage: Apega/WENN\nHorne was the lead singer of Def FX, an Australian-based industrial-dance-rock group (think Prodigy meets Garbage from the mid-\u201990s) and is very open about her beliefs.\nShe has actually written several books on her practice, including titles such as Witch: A Personal Journey, 7 Days to a Magickal New You and Witchin\u2019: A Handbook for Teen Witches.\nImage: JLN Photography/WENN\nThe Burn Notice star was giving an interview, discussing how she would never get married again, when she let fly that she was Pagan.\nShe said, \u201cI\u2019m doing this work. I\u2019m making dinner. I\u2019m being a wife, trying to be as attractive as I can, trying to put out with my sexuality to the degree that will keep my husband interested in me and not in other women. I\u2019m pulling my weight financially. I\u2019m doing all this stuff, and I\u2019m feeling this incredible inequality\u2026 And I\u2019m a Pagan. I\u2019m a\u2026 Pagan, and this isn\u2019t for me. This institution that was invented to control women, and I\u2019m not willing to be controlled any longer.\u201d\nWe\u2019ve always been in awe of Bj\u00f6rk\u2019s ethereal presence, so it\u2019s not super-surprising that she\u2019s into the occult.\n\u201cI think she took me to all the occult creatures of Iceland\u2026 I think I probably believe most of it, actually,\u201d she said in a 1995 interview, via Rebel Circus. \u201cI\u2019ve got Pluto in a very important place, and that\u2019s what I\u2019m about. I have to re-create the universe every morning when I wake up. And kill it in the evening, which is a bit outrageous, but there you go.\u201d\nBj\u00f6rk\u2019s first band was also called Kukl, which is the Icelandic word for \u201cwitchcraft.\u201d\nOne of the beloved architect\u2019s most famous quotes is, \u201cI believe in God, only I spell it, \u2018Nature.'\u201d\nWe don\u2019t know if Wright would consider himself Pagan, but that sentiment is at the heart of what it is to be Pagan or Wiccan. First and foremost, Paganism is a nature spirituality because Pagans regard nature as the physical manifestation of Spirit (God, Goddess, or both).\nMortensen might not be a full-blown Pagan, but his beliefs sure are full-blown agnostic pantheism.\nDuring an interview, he was once directly asked about his religious beliefs. His reply was, \u201cMy answer would be what Walt Whitman said in Leaves of Grass, something to the effect of \u2018I hear and behold that God is in every object, and yet I understand God not at all.\u201d\nBalk has become somewhat of a Wiccan urban legend.\nWhile largely known for her witchy role in The Craft as well as her goth looks, Balk has starred in many not-so-dark films (hello, she played Dorothy Gale in Return to Oz. OK, that was admittedly a pretty dark tale, too).\nBalk actually became so intrigued by Wicca that she bought an occult store in Hollywood called Panpipes (which claims to be the nation\u2019s oldest occult store). While there is wide speculation about her own actual practice, Balk has, at the very least, led folks to believe that she practices Wicca IRL, even if she has just become a keen supporter following her big-screen character\u2019s affiliation with the religion.\nIf there is anyone more witchy than Stevie Nicks, I just don\u2019t know who it would be.\nNicks has come out several times and denied being a witch, but that isn\u2019t to say she doesn\u2019t believe in and/or follow a Pagan or alternative religion. After all, something keeps fanning these rumor flames, and it just might be Nicks herself. She\u2019ll claim she\u2019s not a witch but then turn right around and release a song called \u201cRhiannon,\u201d giving everyone witchy whiplash. She\u2019ll wear Wiccan-inspired jewelry, but she still maintains she is not a practicing witch.\nYou stay in the broom closet, Stevie. It\u2019s OK. You are the Goddess of Rock no matter where you are.\nAlyson Hannigan religion Stevie Nicks Viggo Mortensen",

        "raw_content": "Dental Implants \u2022 Silverdale, WA\nYou Can Restore the Beauty of Your Smile with Dental Implants\nSilverdale Dental Center places dental implants, mini-dental implants and implant supported dentures\nThe problem with many tooth restoration options, dentures, in particular, is that they are a temporary, removable prosthetic. While a denture may look like your natural teeth, they will not feel like your natural teeth. In fact, the majority of denture wearers have issues with stability, comfort and bone health. For a permanent restoration, visit Silverdale Dental Center. We can provide you with advantages only available with traditional or mini-dental implants in Silverdale, WA.\nA dental implant is a device designed to replace missing teeth. It is made out of titanium and is surgically placed into the jawbone where the tooth is missing.\nDental implants will make your smile feel and look as natural as ever. In areas where there are missing or severely damaged teeth, dental implants can easily vanish any awkward gaps, making your smile look fresh and renewed. Implants are long-lasting, which also makes them a cost-effective option for replacing teeth. Crowns, conventional bridges, and dentures aren\u2019t the only options for replacing missing teeth. Dental implants will make these fixtures more stable and comfortable in the mouth. Since implants are effective, secure, and extremely durable, they will keep you smiling every day.\nDental implants are made of titanium to ensure a strong and stable foundation for false teeth. The implants are surgically set into the jawbone where a tooth is missing. Then, a denture or any replacement teeth and bridges securely fit on top of the implant. The implant is fused to the jawbone through the process of osseointegration. Stability is added in between replacement teeth and the jaw bone due to a dental implant procedure. The practice has become a common method for securing replacement teeth and hiding any tooth gaps in the mouth. Thanks to dental implants, all of these issues are much more effortless and easier to handle. Surgery can seem scary, but dental implants have the highest success rate of any surgically implanted device of medical practices. There is no need to fear, and numerous benefits to look forward to.\nThere is a wide range of benefits to dental implants other than simply replacing a missing tooth. For example, the implant will help maintain proper bone levels, support over-dentures, and keep the mouth feeling natural and comfortable when a real tooth is missing. The prevention of bone loss makes dental implants a huge success for patients with missing teeth, who can often suffer from bone deterioration. Since the titanium material is lightweight, durable, and biocompatible, the implants will go unnoticed on a daily basis, making it easy to forget they are there. If taken care of properly, dental implants can last up to several decades \u2013 now that\u2019s effective!\nAt Silverdale, experienced dentists will safely place dental implants into any gap in the mouth. Patients will find the results to be very comfortable and unnoticeable to others. Dental implants have greatly changed dentist practices in a positive way, and they can for you too. The surgery won\u2019t take more than a day and we have a great support system of dentists and assistants to get your through the procedure. Similar to a regular filling, dental implants induce little to no pain, and recovery is quick and easy.\nSo what are you waiting for? Schedule an appointment with us now to gain the comfort and health benefits you always wanted. Dental implants will provide you with high-tech teeth that will last with you through the ages. Plus, your smile will look bright and radiant, adding to a confidence that might have been lost due to missing teeth.",

Little did she know she would be making the 911 call heard around the world. Whalen told reporters Wednesday that the criticism of her after the arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr. had built up too much not to speak up about.\nLucia Whalen was just going on her lunch break. Little did she know she would be making the 911 call heard around the world.\nStanding on the lawn of Danehy Park on Wednesday, the Malden resident and Harvard Magazine staffer told reporters that she had to speak up after being criticized after the arrest of Henry Louis Gates Jr.\nHer husband, Paul, stood closely by her side as Whalen fought back tears as she recalled what the past week has been like.\n\u201cThe criticism at first was so painful for me\u2026 I was frankly afraid to say anything,\u201d she said. \u201cPeople called me racist and said I caused all the turmoil that followed and some even said threatening things that made me fear for my safety. I knew the truth. I did not want to add to the controversy.\u201d\nWhile Whalen was walking down Ware Street the day of July 16, an elderly woman without a cell phone sought her help after witnessing two men trying to get their way into a Ware Street home. That home belonged to Gates, a black professor at Harvard University, who had just returned to Cambridge from a trip to China.\nWhen Whalen spoke to police she described \u201ctwo larger men\u201d with suitcases on the front porch, noting that one man was using his \u201cshoulder to try and barge in.\u201d Police Sgt. James Crowley arrested Gates and charged him with disorderly conduct, reporting that Gates was yelling and \u201cuncooperative.\u201d The charges were dismissed on July 21.\nSince the arrest, controversy swirled around allegations of racial profiling, and Whalen was in the middle of it all. A woman of Portuguese decent, Whalen has worked in Cambridge for more than 15 years and said she has been grateful for the public support from her family and friends.\n\u201cWhen I was called racist and was a target or scorn and ridicule because of a thing I never said, the criticism hurt me as a person, but it also hurt the community of Cambridge,\u201d she said. \u201cI have been raised by two lovely parents who have instilled in me values including love one another, be kind to strangers and do not judge people based on race, ethnicity, or any other feature other than their character.\u201d\nOn Monday, the city released the recordings of the 911 call along with radio transmissions between police made that day.\n\u201cIt never occurred to me that that the way I reported what I saw would be analyzed by an entire nation,\u201d she said.\nWhalen would not comment further about the police report or details of Gates\u2019 arrest.\nWhen asked if she would make the call again, Whalen said she would.\n\u201cI would absolutely do that,\u201d she said.\nWendy Murphy, the attorney representing Whalen, said her client deserves a medal for the call she made and the way she has composed herself over the past week.\n\u201cAny one of us would be lucky to have such a person living or working in our neighborhood,\u201d Murphy said. \u201cShe made a measured, thoughtful and objective call to 911 to report suspicious activity.\u201d",

The collection will include all four Mad Max films, as well as the fabled black and chrome edition of Mad Max: Fury Road. Hit the jump for details.\nVOTD: POV Shots Make the \u2018Mad Max\u2019 Franchise Intense\nPosted on Friday, May 29th, 2015 by Ethan Anderton\nPlenty of people have been praising Mad Max: Fury Road over and over again. Every chance we get to write about the film, we\u2019re throwing kudos to director George Miller for crafting what could very well end up being the best action movie of the year, maybe even the decade. But let\u2019s not forget that the original Mad Max franchise was a rather impressive achievement.\nA new supercut has come along taking a look at one key element of the first three Mad Max films: POV shots. Director George Miller effectively and seamlessly uses POV shots to put the audience right in the middle of the action without it ever feeling like a gimmick. It\u2019s just one of the many ways Miller has proven that he\u2019s a master behind the camera.\nWatch the Mad Max POV supercut after the jump! Read More \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "North West Road Improvements \u2013 a Postcode Lottery\nBy Michael HardacreHead of Occupiers and Public Liability\nThis time last year the sink hole of the Mancunian Way sparked a debate about whether you can pursue a pothole compensation claim against the council if you are injured or your vehicle is damaged by a road defect.\nA new study by the National Federation of Self Employed & Small Businesses (FSB) has revealed that slow progress has been made to fix Greater Manchester roads, which continues to be a postcode lottery as to the levels of investment by each council.\nThe research revealed there were around 20,000 complaints from the public about potholes and damaged roads across the Greater Manchester area in 2014/15. All but three local authorities in Greater Manchester received fewer legal claims in this time compared to the previous year. Five councils received a higher number of complaints.\nSimon Edmondson, FSB regional chair for Greater Manchester, said: \u201cOur members rely heavily on the local road networks to do business, with employees, customers and trade deliveries relying on fast and efficient networks. Poorly maintained roads impede that.\n\u201cWhile this research shows councils are, on the whole, making some headway in maintaining our region\u2019s road network to an acceptable standard, there\u2019s still room for improvement.\"\nA recent report by the Asphalt Industry Alliance (AIA) estimates the bill for pothole repairs in the UK at \u00a311.8 billion. Last year the Government announced a \u00a3250 million pothole fund to fix over four million potholes by 2020/21. However, this is nowhere near enough as it is estimated that on average each council needs \u00a369m. The AIA estimates that it will take 14 years to clear the backlog of pothole repairs. There is one defect for every 110m of road.\nCouncils have a legal duty to maintain the roads they look after, but now more than ever, they face problems finding the money to do so. That said, they have to make sure they regularly inspect roads and repair any defects to keep road users, be they drivers, cyclists or pedestrians safe. If you\u2019ve been seriously injured because of a road defect, you should get legal advice on whether the local authority has done enough to meet its legal obligations.\nAs well as damage to vehicles, potholes and road defects pose a great risk to cyclists. See our tips for how cyclists may protect themselves from pothole accidents here.\nOn Friday, 29 July, along with Cycling UK, Slater and Gordon joined in the \u2018Cycle Matters\u2019 road safety campaign promoting awareness of the dangers of potholes to cyclists on UK roads. Read our blog here.\nMichael Hardacre is a senior personal injury lawyer at Slater and Gordon in Manchester.\nSlater and Gordon Lawyers offer a free consultation for people who have suffered injuries and road traffic accidents due to potholes and road defects.\nIf you were injured in public in an accident that wasn\u2019t your fault, whether as a cyclist, motorist or pedestrian, call our personal injury lawyers on freephone 0800 916 9046 or contact us online and we'll be happy to help you.

        "raw_content": "by Alexis Martin, Ph.D., Director of Research and Evaluation\nThe Level Playing Field Institute relies on rigorous evaluation methods in order to measure the impact of our programs. LPFI\u2019s Research department collects and analyzes data for each of our programs- whether a long-standing summer program such as SMASH, a pilot program such as the UC Davis SMASH Pathways program, or a school-year program such as SMASH: Prep. We consistently produce evaluation reports and data briefs in order to examine the efficacy of our programs, determine areas for improvement, and make program decisions based on research. For example, when LPFI first implemented computer science courses in 2012 at SMASH, evaluation data demonstrated significant gains for scholars in computer science aspirations and achievement. Hence, the organization then decided to build up computer science offerings and implement a full sequence of coursework within SMASH.\nMoreover, because low-income students of color overwhelmingly face myriad barriers to access and opportunity, LPFI\u2019s Research department utilizes data to examine how successfully interventions such as SMASH are able to counter these barriers and provide much-needed resources. For example, LPFI\u2019s recent report, Path Not Found, demonstrated that 75% of California\u2019s public high schools with the highest percentage of underrepresented students of color offer no computer science courses. This is another reason for SMASH\u2019s emphasis on computer science.\nBeyond making programmatic decisions and improvements, it is vital to additionally use rigorous methods to demonstrate the deep, long-term impact of programs such as SMASH. Thus, LPFI conducts an annual alumni survey in order to report on STEM persistence among program alumni, as well as fields of study, post-secondary experiences, career paths, and the ways in which SMASH prepared alumni for college. We have found that our alumni persist as STEM majors at rates five times higher than that of the national average for non-SMASH African-American and Latino students who declare STEM majors.\nLPFI also shares our program impact evaluation findings in order to take part in larger local, state, and national-level dialogues about broadening STEM participation. On an ongoing basis, we share lessons learned about best practices with other STEM programs, practitioners, and policy-makers through publications and conference presentations.\nThe below graphic demonstrates the ways in which our research informs our practice, and vice versa:\nCS, CS Initiatives, Evaluation Report, Impact, Research, SMASH, STEM, STEM Education",

But the partial denture was loose and uncomfortable, so Lynda didn\u2019t ever wear it.\nEventually, some of her front teeth started to feel loose and began to move. She knew she had to find a solution \u2013 not only was she struggling with loose and missing teeth, it was painful.\nSo, despite feeling anxious, she plucked up the courage and made an appointment to see a local dentist who offered cosmetic dentistry.\n\u201cAll my teeth needed to come out\u201d\n\u201cI was really shocked when I was told that I had gum disease and all my teeth needed to come out. I had no idea that they were that bad. I felt belittled.\u201d\nBut a week later Lynda went back to discuss treatment options, which were:\n1. For Lynda to have all her teeth removed. She would live with no teeth for about a month whilst the swelling went down, then she would be fitted with a temporary denture. (Also known as \u201cimmediate dentures,\u201d these are false teeth that can be placed as soon as your teeth have been extracted). This was the option recommended to Lynda.\n2. To have all her teeth extracted and to be fitted immediately with a temporary denture, which would require repeated visits to the dentist to have it adjusted. At a much later date, there was the option for a clip-in denture to be fitted, at a cost of \u00a315,000 \u2013 a high cost for a treatment that Lynda really didn\u2019t want.\n\u201cI was in quite a state. I knew I needed to do something, but I didn\u2019t know what to do.\nFor me it wasn\u2019t about the money. I just knew that I didn\u2019t want something that I had to take out at night.\nI booked an appointment to see an NHS dentist, but I had to wait five weeks. That gave me time to think.\u201d\nDiscovering the solution at TDC\n\u201cFor a couple of weeks, I kept looking at the internet and I kept coming back to TDC because I liked the pages on their website and reading the stories. They looked like the place I wanted to go. So I researched everything I could about TDC, even checking them out at Companies House.\u201d\nThen one evening in May 2018, Lynda got a call from her sister telling her to watch primetime TV show \u2018This Time Next Year\u2019.\n\u201cThere was a lady on there having her smile transformed in a day with dental implants. I watched it and knew that\u2019s what I wanted to get, so I discussed it with my husband \u2013 I knew exactly how that lady felt.\u201d\n\u201cBut I didn\u2019t realise at the time that the transformation on TV was actually being done by TDC! When I found out it really could be done in a day (implants and a full set of fixed teeth), I couldn\u2019t believe it.\nThe moment you meet Anthony (Zybutz) you know you\u2019re in safe hands. I was worried that they\u2019d say there was nothing they could do for me, but they were wonderful and really understood.\u201d\n\u201cLife-changing isn\u2019t the word\u201d\nToday Lynda has a full set of upper and lower dental implants, and a beautiful new smile, and says \u201clife-changing isn\u2019t the word.\u201d\n\u201cI really didn\u2019t realise how much confidence I\u2019d lost over the years. I used to think about my teeth at night, and again first thing in the morning. I don\u2019t have that any more. No more dull pain. I feel healthier, and you can interact with people more.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019ve got tickets for Wimbledon. I hope the camera goes on us as I\u2019m going to give a big smile!\u201d",

The tree was a home away from home and it offered shade in the summer, a place where dreams were shared and friendships cemented.\nWhen the dumpies (South African colloquial term used to describe 440ml alcohol bottle) ran dry and stomachs started to rumble, the smell of home-cooked food lured people from the famous tree and into the house.

        "raw_content": "7 Notable Space Shuttle Astronauts\nBy Lily Norton 2012-07-23T20:53:00Z Countdown\nNASA's Shuttle Astronauts\nThe space shuttle has launched 134 times during its 30 years of service, and in that time it has ferried more than 540 astronauts into space. After one more launch, the July 8 liftoff of the shuttle Atlantis, NASA plans to retire its reusable space planes for good.\nWhile each shuttle astronaut has made unique contributions to America's space program, a few space travelers especially stand out. Here's a look at seven of the brave men and women who've ridden to space on the shuttles:\nJohn Young had already been in space four times by the time he was chosen to become the commander of the first space shuttle mission. Young was the ninth person to walk on the moon (as commander of the Apollo 16 mission in 1972), and he is one of only three people who has been to the moon twice.\nAfter flying on the inaugural shuttle flight, the STS-1 mission of Columbia in 1981, Young went on to command another space shuttle mission, the STS-9 flight in 1983, which carried the first Spacelab research module.\nWhen he retired in 2004, he had spent a total of 34 days in space.\nEven before Robert Crippen piloted the first flight of the space shuttle program, he had put together an impressive resume at NASA. He was a member of the astronaut support crew on the ground for missions on the Skylab space station and for the 1975 Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, which was the last Apollo mission, and the first joint United States/Soviet Union space flight.\nAfter the first shuttle flight, Crippen commanded the shuttle on three subsequent missions in the 1980s. He presided over the first five-person crew, STS-7, flew with the first female American astronaut in space, Sally Ride, on STS-41-C, and commanded the first seven-person crew on STS-41-G.\nOverall, Crippen spent 23 days in space over the course of his four shuttle missions.\nSally Ride was already a notable American physicist before she began her rather unorthodox path to becoming a space shuttle astronaut.\nRide found her way to the shuttle by being one of 8,000 people to answer a NASA application advertisement in a newspaper. In August 1979, she completed one year of training, and then performed as an on-orbit capsule communicator (CAPCOM), talking to the astronauts from the ground during the STS-2 and STS-3 shuttle missions.\nOn June 18, 1983, Ride became the first American woman in space as a crewmember on Challenger for the STS-7 mission.\nBefore becoming the first African-American in space on Challenger mission STS-8, Guy Bluford was an engineer and a colonel in the United States Air Force.\nBluford flew on four space shuttle flights between 1983 and 1992. In addition to his STS-8 flight, he flew on the Spacelab-equipped STS-61-A mission, and two Department of Defense-dedicated missions, STS-39, and STS-53.\nBluford retired in 1993, having logged more than 28 days in space.\nIn 1984, mission specialist Kathryn Sullivan became the first American woman to walk in space during the STS-41 G flight.\nSullivan was a crewmember on three space shuttle missions (STS-41G, STS-31 and STS-45), and logged 22 days in space.\nOne of the pioneers of space exploration, Mercury astronaut John Glenn was the fifth person in space and the first person to orbit the Earth, aboard Friendship 7 on February 20, 1962.\nGlenn went on to have a long career in NASA, and also became a U.S. senator in Ohio. In 1998 he flew on the space shuttle Discovery mission STS-95. He was 77 at the time, setting the record of oldest person to go into space. He was also the third seated politician to reach orbit.\nGlenn logged a total of nine days in space during his NASA career.\nIn 1984, many astronauts had orbited the Earth, but Bruce McCandless II made the feat without a spacecraft.\nMcCandless became the first human to orbit Earth wearing just a spacesuit and a mobile jet pack, called the Manned Maneuvering Unit.\nAs a mission specialist on two space shuttle missions (STS-41-B and STS-31), McCandless logged more than 312 hours total in space.",

Well the Advocate General of the European Court of Justice has just come up with a possible contender: the foster carer.\nIn the Romanian case of Sindicatul Familia Constan\u0163a and others v Direc\u0163ia General\u0103 de Asisten\u0163\u0103 Social\u0103 \u015fi Protec\u0163ia Copilului Constan\u0163a, a group of foster carers have sought to argue that under the EU Working Time Directive (WTD), they should be categorised as \u2018workers\u2019. If their arguments were to succeed, they would be entitled to benefit from a variety of important employment rights, including the right to paid annual leave.\nHowever, Advocate General Wahl (a legal officer of the European Court of Justice) has recently published his opinion on the matter and expressed the view that foster carers who provide full-time care for children living in their own homes cannot rightly be classed as workers under the WTD.\nInterestingly, various trade unions (including the IWGB) have been supporting their members in fighting for workers\u2019 rights for foster carers here in the UK. However, if the European Court of Justice agrees with Advocate General Wahl\u2019s opinion and rules against the Romanian foster carers, this could make a successful claim here in the UK much more unlikely.\nIt\u2019s worth keeping an eye on developments in this area. In the meantime, if you are interested in hearing more about this particular case, please get in touch.",

SES are a class of complex adaptive systems (CAS) and exhibit many properties, such as processes of emergence, diversity and individuality of components, non-linearity and self-organization that can well be accounted for in the framework of process ontologies. However, \u201cgrounding\u201d CAS on process ontologies may have far-reaching epistemological and methodological consequences as to how we study CAS.\nThis may be very different compared to how we normally study CAS in the framework of classical substance ontologies. Hertz works with Maja Schl\u00fcter within the MuSES project (Towards middle-range theories of the co-evolutionary dynamics of multi-level social-ecological systems) to apply process thinking to emergent phenomena in the framework of case studies in Mexico (small-scale fisheries) and Uzbekistan (water management).\nA further interest of Hertz lies in studying and developing approaches to disclosing and bridging the many different ontologies and epistemologies used in SES research in view of fostering transdisciplinary knowledge integration.\nHertz has studied Economic Sciences and Philosophy in Scotland and France and obtained his Doctoral Degree in Economic Sciences from the University of Paul C\u00e9zanne in Aix-en-Provence, which was supervised by Professor Alan Kirman focusing on common pool resources and evolutionary game theory.\nIn the framework of a variety of academic assignments he worked with the Department of Resource Economics at Humboldt-University of Berlin where he was a scientific coordinator for the project \u201cSustainable Hyderabad.\u201d\nHe has also worked extensively with development cooperation (GIZ - Deutsche Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH) in Indonesia and India, especially in the area of adaptation to climate change. In the framework of these assignments, he was particularly interested in how to integrate resilience thinking into vulnerability analyses to climate change and in designing the entire climate change adaptation cycle in a participatory and inclusive manner in order to deal with theory- and value orientation of scientific assessments.\nHertz is a member of IUCNs (International Union for Conservation of Nature) CEM (Commission of Ecosystem Services) thematic groups of Resilience and Climate Change Adaptation.\nHertz, Tilman",

        "raw_content": "Wellness Wednesdays \u2014 Part of our Mental Health Series\nStudents heading into university face a world of new possibilities\u2014but that comes with new challenges too. And in recent years, those challenges have appeared to reach critical mass, with anxiety and depression both on the rise among Canada\u2019s university students.\nAccording to a survey of Ontario university students by the American College Health Association, between 2013 and 2016, this student population experienced a 50% increase in anxiety, a 47% increase in depression, and a 47% increase in suicide attempts. And according to a recent report in The Globe and Mail, a fifth of Canadian postsecondary students now report being depressed, anxious, or otherwise struggling with their mental health.\nWhat is behind the issue?\nThe number of challenges that students face can be immense. Many new university students feel great pressure to choose what will be the \u201ccorrect\u201d course for their adult life as they navigate through their studies. Throw in a new school system to adjust to with a heavy load of coursework, shifting and unfamiliar new social groups, family pressures to perform well, and easy access to drugs and alcohol\u2014and university can quickly become a challenging situation for students.\nFor international students, there are even more factors that can lead to feelings of isolation, depression, and anxiety: language barriers, culture shock, and being far from one\u2019s familiar support network can all exacerbate a student\u2019s struggles with their mental health.\nAccording to one medical director of student health, interviewed by the Toronto Star, there may be yet another factor behind this increase: as universities work to decrease mental health stigma and increase access to services, many young people who come on campus are finding themselves in a supportive situation where they can seek help that was not previously available to them in their former schools or home country. A similar phenomenon can occur with international students, many of whom may come from a culture where mental health is much more stigmatized than it is in Canada.\nOne thing is clear, however: as the need for student mental health support is on the rise, universities are being forced to respond. A survey by the Toronto Star and the Ryerson School of Journalism found that universities\u2019 mental health budgets have increased by an average of 35% as they attempt to meet the rising demand from their students.\nHow can students cope?\nAs research into the rise of anxiety and depression among students continues, universities are working to provide a variety of resources to help them. In many cases, students are forced to look outside their university system for the support they need as a lot of schools are short-staffed in the counselling services department and the availability to see a school-provided counsellor can be extremely tight.\nAs a result, wait lists for university counselling services can be quite long\u2014one student interviewed by the Toronto Star cited a nearly four-year wait before she was given access to a school counsellor. With the demand greatly outpacing the current supply, on-campus counselling is being supplemented by other services to help students get the support they need.\nIn many cases, student-run initiatives are stepping up to fill the gaps. One such example is peer support centres, which are student-run and allow for students to talk to someone who can sympathize with their situation. Students have also taken to social media, writing blogs and articles where they can share their experiences and connect with each other.\nAnd students are continuing to advance this issue. At the University of Waterloo, one recent graduate has created mental health support kits that will be handed out to all new first-year students to help start the conversation on supporting mental health.\nFor students seeking help off campus, local community groups can be a good solution\u2014either for mental health support specifically, or for finding a social space where students can connect and relax. Meeting new people with shared interests and finding a hobby to dedicate one\u2019s energies to can be a good way to balance out the stress of the school year.\nAnd hobbies involving physical activity can be an extra dose of help, with exercise being touted as an important factor in maintaining mental health\u2014according to CAMH, physical and mental health are linked, with those suffering from chronic physical pain more likely to experience mood disorders and vice versa. What\u2019s more, engaging in physical fitness activities, even just for 30 minutes, releases feel-good chemicals and increases blood and oxygen flow to your brain.\nTechnology is also stepping up to offer mental health support. There are a plethora of new mental health apps that can help students to manage their day-to-day anxieties and stay on top of their mental health needs.\nFor students who have insurance benefits, you may also be covered up to a certain amount for psychologist or social worker visits should you need them. Consult the fine print of your policy to find out what you\u2019re eligible for, or give your insurer a call for more information.\nHere\u2019s how StudyInsured can help\nWith mental health awareness growing among students, young people are seeking more ways to get the mental health support they need. That\u2019s why we designed our Stay Healthy at School program to break down barriers that keep students from getting the right mental health support.\nThe Stay Healthy at School program addresses the wide variety of issues that international students face, including homesickness, academic stress, language barriers, depression and anxiety, addiction and substance abuse, and post-traumatic stress. It includes a 24/7 dedicated mental wellness phone line, available in 180 languages, that gives students anytime access to counselling support from qualified counsellors with years of clinical experience.\nThe program also offers comprehensive online resources and health articles to help students navigate the Canadian health care system and proactively manage both their physical health and their mental wellness.\nUnderstanding the difficulties students face, this program is designed for international students and their families as it helps to bridge that gap between Canadian university students and effective mental health support.\nCAMH.

        "raw_content": "The impact of surf therapy on young people with social and emotional challenges\nThe Wave Project is a British surf therapy charity that helps young people fulfill their potential.\nIn January 2015, a peer-review published in the journal Community Practitioner stated that the surf therapy program developed by the Wave Project resulted in a \"significant and sustained increase in well-being.\"\n\"One year later [...] parents and referrers noticed an increase in positive attitude and better communication, as well as improved self-management and analyzing at both home and school,\" the report revealed.\nHowever, the article went on to say that \"further service evaluation of accessibility and long-term outcomes is also recommended.\"\nThat is why the Wave Project decided to study the long-term impact of surf therapy upon young people. The newly released report is the result of over four years worth of evaluation and contains 412 case studies.\nHannah Devine-Wright and Catherine Godfrey analyzed data collected by the charity between 2013 and 2017, and ran a series of focus group interviews with Wave Project participants and their parents from across England, Wales and Scotland, to get a broad view of the impact surf therapy has had on young people over time.\n\"For the first time, independent research has confirmed what many of us engaged in surf therapy have witnessed week in and week out: surf therapy works!\" stresses Joe Taylor, CEO of Wave Project.\nThe conclusions reveal that youngsters increased their competence, overall satisfaction, reported resilience, fitness levels, and sense of belonging.\nSurfing: A Pill for Youngsters and Carers\nWhen delivered in a supportive environment, with opportunities for continuation and volunteering, surfing provides profound and long-term benefits on the wellbeing of children facing social and emotional isolation.\nResearchers analyzed the results from 1,945 vulnerable young people aged 8-21 who experience physical and mental health issues, social deprivation or social isolation.\nAmongst those facing social isolation are young carers, who often report low self-esteem and high levels of stress, anxiety, and depression, and young people who have been bullied.\n\"We hope that this will be the first of many similar evaluation reports around the world to continue strengthening the case for surf therapy,\" adds Taylor.\nAdditionally, the six-week course ran by the Wave Project appears cost-effective. The initial program costs approximately \u00a3300 per child, and each follow-on surf club session costs \u00a320 per child.\nAssuming that a child attends ten surf club sessions per annum, the overall cost for a child to benefit from surf therapy provided by the Wave Project is \u00a3500 per child, per year.\nAcross time, as clients become surf volunteers, they may become cost neutral, experiencing additional benefit at no cost to the project at all.",

        "title": "Are we really ready for a Yellowstone eruption?",
        "raw_content": "Are we really ready for a Yellowstone eruption?\nReuters picked up a quirky science story this weekend which caught my attention and it has to do with Yellowstone National Park. Steamboat Geyser, the largest \u201cactive\u201d geyser in the world, erupted on Friday. The typical response should be along the lines of so what? It\u2019s Yellowstone. The place is full of geysers.\nAll true, except Steamboat also erupted on April 19th. And it erupted on March 15th. Still doesn\u2019t sound unusual to you? Before that, the last time it erupted was in 2014. It\u2019s a very inactive geyser. 2003 was the last time that it had three eruptions over the course of one entire year, say nothing of three in six weeks. But scientists are quick to point out that this absolutely doesn\u2019t mean that a supervolcano eruption is about to hit. Well\u2026 at least not definitely.\nThe world\u2019s largest active geyser has erupted three times in the past six weeks at Yellowstone National Park, including once this week, in a pattern that is unusual but not at all indicative of a more destructive volcanic eruption brewing beneath Wyoming, geologists said on Saturday.\nSteamboat Geyser, which can shoot water as high as 300 feet (91 meters) into the air, erupted on March 15, April 19 and on Friday. The last time it erupted three times in a year was in 2003, the U.S. Geological Survey\u2019s Yellowstone Volcano Observatory said.\nThe last time it erupted prior to March was more than three years ago in September 2014.\n\u201cThere is nothing to indicate that any sort of volcanic eruption is imminent,\u201d Michael Poland, the scientist in charge for the observatory, said in an email.\nThere have been numerous Science Channel documentaries done about the Yellowstone Caldera (which is the official name, since \u201csupervolcano\u201d was made up by the media). And there have been enough odd reports from scientists in recent years that the press has begun paying attention. Just a couple of weeks ago, Joel Achenbach wrote a lengthy report at the Washington Post about the caldera. He\u2019s got a lot of great information in there about the double magma chambers under Yellowstone and its geological history. The entire caldera has blown a number of times over the past few million years, roughly 600,000 years apart. The last eruption is believed to have been 630,000 years ago.\nThe experts cited by Achenbach are quick to point out the same things as the scientists quoted in the Reuters article. These calderas aren\u2019t like machines. There\u2019s no proof that an eruption is imminent and they happen so infrequently that the probability of one coming up shortly is probably pretty small. There\u2019s no definitive way to say that an eruption is imminent.\nOf course, if you press them on the subject, they\u2019ll also admit that there\u2019s no way to say that it\u2019s not imminent either.\nSo when a huge, relatively inactive geyser goes off three times in six weeks it at least gets you to thinking. With that in mind I began wondering if there\u2019s any sort of disaster plan in place in case Yellowstone does go up. If it happens, the entire continent is going to get a coating of ash. In the states closest to Yellowstone it could be several feet deep. It would be, to put it mildly\u2026 a bad day.\nWyoming has an evacuation plan in place and they mention the possibility of a caldera eruption. But the plans are built more for a WMD attack or nuclear first strike. It\u2019s assumed there will be at least some time to get ready, warn people and get them on the road. How long would we have if the Yellowstone Caldera blew up? When Mount St. Helens was rumbling in 1980 it gave us every indication it possibly could. Earthquakes, vents of noxious gas, bulges in the slope\u2026 but everyone kept waiting and waiting and nothing happened. Some gave up and went back home into the evacuation area after a few weeks. And nothing kept happening until it suddenly did and then half the mountain was suddenly traveling outward at Mach 1 in a matter of seconds. The Yellowstone Caldera is estimated to be capable of an explosion up to 10,000 times more powerful than what St. Helens produced.\nSo I\u2019m not sure if there really is a good evacuation plan for the area immediately around the caldera. But everywhere to the east would need to be ready for a shower of ash, cloudy skies and a significantly changed climate for at least a few years. A quick look through the emergency plans for states on the east coast seems to indicate that nobody has really planned for this. Maybe we should be getting plans in place just in case.\nToday\u2019s hot topics on Relevant Radio: Kavanaugh vs Spartacus, Catholic voters, NYT anonymous op-ed, and more!\nOnce again, I get to step outside the box and guest host on Relevant Radio\u2019s A Closer Look from 6-7 ET today!

        "title": "Industry, Investigators Push Back With Patient-Level Data Showing No Increased Death From Paclitaxel-Based PAD Therapies | tctmd.com",
        "raw_content": "More than a month after a controversial meta-analysis suggested a late mortality signal in patients with PAD treated with paclitaxel-based balloons and stents, a session convened at the Leipzig Interventional Course (LINC) 2019 this week revealed further details\u2014newly-released patient-level data from the pivotal trials show low and comparable mortality rates for paclitaxel-treated and uncoated balloon-treated patients.\nThe meta-analysis that first sounded the alarm was led by Konstantinos Katsanos, MD, PhD (Patras University Hospital, Rion, Greece), and suggested that within 2 years of treatment, the paclitaxel groups had a 68% relative risk increase in all-cause death compared with patients treated with an uncoated balloon. At 5 years, the relative risk increase was 93% in comparison with uncoated balloons. Since then, researchers have struggled to explain the Katsanos results, which were based on summary-level pooled data from 28 trials of DES and drug-coated balloons (DCBs) for PAD.\nKatsanos, who spoke at LINC yesterday, theorized that the explanation behind the mortality increase lies in a fine line between the effective therapeutic dose of paclitaxel and a toxic dose.\n\u201cI would put it to you that there is no question that [paclitaxel] is effective, but on the other side it can increase the risk of death,\u201d he said during his presentation.\nBuilding on the concept that paclitaxel interferes with mitosis and causes cell death and the rise of aneuploid daughter cells, Katsanos said as-yet unpublished work from his group also shows consistently increased risk of cardiovascular events in paclitaxel-treated patients at 1 year in pooled US Food and Drug Administration-submitted data from ZILVER PTX, LUTONIX, STELLAREX, and IN.PACT, as well as greater risks of GI events, infectious diseases, and respiratory events. \u201cThere is a consistent finding of certain groups of adverse events across all those studies up to 1 year,\u201d he observed, adding that the incidence of cancer was similar between groups.\nIn a separate analysis of dose subgroups, one that also that has not yet been published, Katsanos showed data indicating that devices that deliver less than 3.5 mg of paclitaxel are associated with a lower risk of death at 2 years than those that deliver more than 3.5 mg (RR 1.38; 95% CI 0.97-2.19 vs RR 2.31; 95% CI 1.23-4.33).\nWe do not know what we do not know. Konstantinos Katsanos\n\u201cOur research is mainly a word of caution and an awakening call for the endovascular community,\u201d he told TCMTD in an email. \u201cWe do not know what we do not know.\u201d\nAsked if he was reassured by the response of industry to the meta-analysis, he said the new data presented by various researchers at the LINC session on behalf of the pivotal RCTs shows that they are taking the issue seriously. \u201cA wealth of new data has emerged that we need to look at carefully,\u201d Katsanos said. \u201cMy first impression, however, is that questionable statistical analyses may have been performed (eg, violating the intention-to-treat principle, or not reporting the hazard ratios at individual time points like we did in our meta-analysis) that may lead to biased overall results. In addition, in spite of the proclaimed spirit of transparency, we are still being refused access to individual patient data to conduct our own analyses.\u201d\nBioavailability and Digging Deeper\nKatsanos also suggested in the email that cautious use of paclitaxel in the legs is warranted based on data indicating that the drug is readily detectable at low traces in nontarget organs like the kidneys and liver at up to 18 months postprocedure.\nBut Juan Granada, MD (Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, NY), who presented experimental data on nontarget tissue drug concentrations of paclitaxel during the LINC session, disagreed with that assessment.\n\"Our data show that the levels in organs are so exceedingly low that it would be difficult to attribute residual paclitaxel present in the tissue as the cause of adverse events years after treatment with a balloon or stent,\" he told TCTMD. \"I'm not going to say it's impossible, because there is nothing impossible in science, but it's highly unlikely that residual paclitaxel is a cause of increased mortality at 5 years. The science does not match up.\"\nA slide from Granada\u2019s presentation showed that liver and kidney concentrations of paclitaxel at 540 days were 0.001 ng/mg and 0.0003 ng/mg, respectively, which are far below the therapeutic level of paclitaxel. In fact, Granada said the only reason those levels are even detectable is due to the high sensitivity of the available tests.\n\"We need to go with what we know, and what we know right now is that these technologies are only used once in the large majority of patients and the concentration that is used for PAD\u2014even in the worst-case scenarios\u2014is several orders of magnitude lower than how paclitaxel is used for cancer treatment,\u201d Granada told TCTMD. \u201cI don\u2019t believe there is a plausible biological explanation for an increase in mortality in paclitaxel-treated patients. Now, that does not mean that there is no mortality difference. Perhaps we should start looking at other causes that may be related to that imbalance.\u201d\nIf this paclitaxel thing is a runaway train, we need to know it right away. Peter Schneider\nPresenting new data from the IN.PACT clinical trial series, Peter Schneider, MD (Hawaii Permanente Group, Honolulu), said evaluating the raw data from patients treated with paclitaxel technologies is a key first step in digging deeper into the mortality issue. Results of an independently adjudicated patient-level analysis of individuals enrolled across the entire IN.PACT Admiral clinical program showed no correlation between exposure to paclitaxel and mortality through 5 years. Schneider said an alternative hypothesis for the better mortality rates of the percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) group seen in the Katsanos meta-analysis could be that follow-up compliance is associated with lower mortality risk, possibly because it puts patients in more frequent touch with the healthcare system.\nIn an interview with TCTMD, Schneider said the full analysis of the IN.PACT groups, with longer follow-up data that have not previously been made public, will be published soon in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. He added that his group performed extensive analyses to look for mortality differences by paclitaxel dose and could find nothing. \"We tried to use paclitaxel dosage as a predictor of mortality, and the model for multivariable analysis kept kicking it back to us,\u201d Schneider observed.\nIn another presentation during the same LINC session, Schneider outlined plans for an upcoming vascular leaders\u2019 forum headed by VIVA, saying he believes there is an opportunity for the vascular community to come together to generate answers to the questions raised by the meta-analysis.\nThe leaders\u2019 forum will collaborate with five US companies that produce commercially available paclitaxel-based DCB and DES products (Medtronic, Cook, Boston Scientific, Bard, and Philips), all of whom have agreed to a data-sharing arrangement in which the patient-level data will be transferred to a third-party statistical consultant for a pooled meta-analysis.\n\u201cIf this paclitaxel thing is a runaway train, we need to know it right away,\u201d he said during his presentation.\nIndustry Responds With Data\nIn addition to the new IN.PACT data, attendees at the LINC session heard from the principal investigators or co-principal investigators of trials testing the Lutonix DCB, Stellarex DCB, Zilver PTX, Eluvia DES, and Ranger DCB. All of the presentations included patient-level data from their respective trial groups and reached similar conclusions, namely that there were no differences in rates of all-cause death between the DCB or DES arms and the PTA groups. Some also looked for and failed to find differences in mortality by applied paclitaxel dose.\nSome of the investigators took the opportunity to point out additional data shortfalls of the Katsanos meta-analysis. Taking an in-depth look at the Zilver PTX studies, Michael D. Dake, MD (University of Arizona, Tucson), said the data used by Katsanos et al did not include all patients treated with the Zilver stent. According to Dake, 31 patients initially randomized to PTA or BMS who had suboptimal results in the first year crossed over to the device arm, data that were not available to Katsanos. When numbers on all patients was included in a patient-level analysis, Dake reported that there was no difference in long-term mortality out to5 years with the device compared with PTA or BMS, challenging the results of the Katsanos meta-analysis.\nTo TCTMD Schneider said that as a whole, the findings presented at the session \"suggested strongly that there is no safety signal, and if there is one, it's got to be a little bit smaller than was claimed by the summary-level meta-analysis. It's going to be quite difficult to find. If there is anything to find I think we will find it with the larger pool of patient-level data.\u201d\nSafety data for Eluvia DES and Ranger DCB presented by William A. Gray, MD (Lankenau Heart Institute, Wynnewood, PA), also were consistent with the findings of the other devices. Mortality rates with Eluvia were not greater than contemporary rates seen with non-drug-coated devices at 1 and 2 years. Additionally, 3-year mortality data in the RANGER SFA study showed no difference between DCB and PTA groups and patient-level data showed no differences in causes of death.\nIn an interview with TCTMD, Gray pointed out that the Eluvia stent is intended to retain paclitaxel for 12 months, longer than any of the other devices, and yet it was not associated with increased mortality.\nStill, he said the planned patient-level meta-analysis \u201cneeds to be done and it should be done with the appropriate methodology.\u201d More time, he added, \u201cwill give us more data as well.\u201d\nSchneider agreed. \u201cI still think we need to go through these next steps, because I would like everyone to feel great confidence that we're making the right decisions and that the right things are driving those decisions,\u201d he told TCTMD.\nAt the end of the LINC session, co-moderator John Laird, MD (Adventist St. Helena Hospital, St. Helena, CA), asked Katsanos about his current clinical practice with regard to paclitaxel.\n\u201cI\u2019m still using a little bit of paclitaxel,\u201d he said. \u201cPaclitaxel is here to stay. We\u2019re not dismissing paclitaxel. It is an amazing medication. I have a feeling it has a narrow therapeutic index and we need to find out more about that.\u201d For the time being, Laird said, he is restricting the use to \u201cas low as necessary\u201d and not using it for very long lesions. Nor is he using multiple paclitaxel DES.\nNote: Granada is CEO of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation, the publisher of TCTMD.\nKatsanos K.

Volleyball is loads of fun and a very social game. It's the only hi-energy, zero body contact, mixed team sport you can play indoors and outdoors - whatever your ability.\nAs a sport, volleyball requires skill, fitness, strategic thinking and the desire to play as part of a team, but whatever level you play at, volleyball can enhance your life, improving fitness and coordination.\nSitting Volleyball is another version of Volleyball that has been adapted to allow anyone to participate including those with a disability.\nVolleyball for an hour burns approximately 780 calories.\nStriking the ball strengthens the upper body, arms and shoulders\nThe movement around the court builds the thigh and lower leg muscles.\nDevelops faster reflexes.\nAs a team game, it is an excellent way to develop communication skills and learn to work effectively with other people.\nYou can get a casual game going almost anywhere, be it the park, the beach, your back garden, university or even a swimming pool; all that is needed is a net and a ball. For more regulated play, clubs throughout the UK run training sessions and leagues for players of all abilities.\nThere are no specific pieces of kit required to play volleyball, with most people choosing to wear a t-shirt, shorts and trainers. Some players choose to use knee pads and elbow pads to provide protection from falls when playing on an indoor court.\nVolleyball was created in 1895 by William G. Morgan, athletics director of the YMCA training school in Holyoke, Massachusetts. He invented the sport, which he called 'mintonette', for older members of the YMCA club. It took the name volleyball the following year.",

        "raw_content": "Although TechBubble Technologies did not get through to the finals of the Global Mobile Innovators Tournament, IBM very kindly provided me with an Exhibitors Pass for the final which was held at 4YFN, part of the Mobile World Congress event last month in Barcelona.\nOut of the 1200 or so projects that were entered into the tournament, 5 teams from each category: Smart Homes, Smart Transport and Smart Healthcare; were to present their final projects at 4YFN. The 3 finals were spread out over the 3 days of the 4YFN event, in between finals there was a chance to spend time walking around the event and checking out all the new technology that was on show at the various demo booths.\nThe finalists each had their own booths in the IBM exhibition space where they could show off their projects to visitors and potential investors. It was great to meet up with the teams that I met in the Semi Finals in Amsterdam: BioLinq, NextToMe and Harmony in IoT & eHealth. It was also very nice to meet the other finalists from around the globe: Beacon of Hope, Kaawo, InnerSpace, Hoome Studio, Brainstat Studio, Gruppo Innovare, Think IT Loud, Trident, Grindbit, CeliWat, Teleker & Cloud Therapy. All of the projects that made it to the finals were very inspiring and it was great to be able to chat with the teams and find out more about their projects and goals.\nDuring the finals one winner from each category was announced. The finals were hosted by someone that I was very excited to get to meet, Andy Stanford-Clark. Although he was very modest about his involvement in the world of IoT, Andy was the developer that created the MQTT protocol 17 years ago. The protocol is used massively in the world of IoT and is the main communication protocol used in IoT platforms such as IBM IoT Foundation and Azure IoT Hub, not to mention used by millions of developers around the world on a daily basis in custom IoT applications and platforms including the TechBubble GUI.\nAll of the teams gave amazing presentations during the finals, some of the teams had traveled half way across the world to present their projects and we also had one team presenting via a Skype conference call which went very smoothly. There were 3 different judges on each day who all made the final decision on the winners of each category once the presentation were complete.\nSmart Healthcare was the first category to present their projects, the winner of this category was Peter Ma and his GridBit app, a device and application that allows people who suffer from a teeth grinding disease called Bruxism to monitor when it happens during their sleep with the hope of helping to find a cure for the disease. Next up on the second day was the Smart Homes category, the winner of this category was InnerSpace, a robotic device that maps out buildings etc and provides data of footfall in certain areas. The final category to present their projects was the Smart Transport category, the winner of this category was BrainStat whose project was a device that monitors your brain to help improve driving.\nAt the end of each day we had a private party at the IBM exhibition which was a great opportunity for everyone to socialize after the event. I was able to catch up with some of the staff and teams that I met in Amsterdam and also meet some of the other teams and others involved in the tournament on more relaxed level.\nAt the end of the 4YFN event IBM put on an amazing party at that Sala Apollo nightclub in Barcelona, this party really was a party! In fact it was so good that I missed the final day at the Mobile World Congress due to the recovery stage. It was a great opportunity to relax and party with IBM staff, organizers and teams.\nDuring the event I was able to chat with people about the projects that myself and new partner in tech, Adam Mosely, will be getting involved with this year. The project includes brain controlled IoT devices, robotics and prosthetics, and I am very happy to say that the feedback from both IBM staff and teams was amazing. I would particularly like to thank IBM's Anh Tran, Tristan Reckhaus, Karine Faucher, Andy Stanford-Clark, Jerome Joubert and Ethan Hermon amongst others for spending a great deal of time discussing the projects with projects. I am very excited about the opportunities that have opened up for us, keep your eyes open for future info on what is to come with the projects.\nAgain a massive thank you to Trudi Hermon & Marije Ferwerda and everyone that was involved in the organization of the event, with all the excitement I didn't manage to remember everyones names but everyone I spoke to at the event made it a really cool experience. I absolutely loved the experience, the staff, the teams, the technology it really was one of the best few weeks of my life. Thank you to everyone that put so much hard work in and hope to get the chance again to catch up with the amazing people I met throughout the tournament and hope to get involved with future events.\nCheck out the official finale video below, if you look hard enough you can catch a glimpse of me grabbing some food at the private party ;)",

        "raw_content": "Ring Video Doorbell 2 review\nA smarter way to see who's calling\nBy Christian de Looper 2018-11-21T15:27:07Z Gadgets\nThe Ring Video Doorbell 2 has its drawbacks, but its excellent app and great motion tracking may make it the best choice for you.\nGreat motion tracking\nApp is easy to use\nNo free video storage\nRing has established itself as one of the biggest names in smart doorbells, and it's easy to see why. Its latest devices are easy to use (they don't have to be hard-wired, like the SkyBell HD) and their feature sets are impressive.\nAnd while we were pleased with the results, setting up the Chime Pro wasn't a flawless experience. We had to go through the instructions more than a few times, as the device was unable to connect to the Wi-Fi network.\nOnce installed, the Ring Video Doorbell 2 is a breeze to use. When someone presses the button or approaches your door, you\u2019ll get a notification on your phone, and if they press the button, the chime will sound and a video call will appear on your phone. That\u2019s particularly helpful if you\u2019re away from your home - as you can initiate a two-way call with whoever is at the door.\nFor starters, the Ring video doorbell has motion tracking and initiates video recording if it detects motion. By default, it was a little too sensitive for our use - especially considering it was facing another nearby condo and would initiate recording when people went to their door as well. Thankfully, that can be changed in the app simply by heading to the 'My Devices' section and hitting the 'Motion Settings' option.\nThe motion tracking really worked quite well, and we loved the integration with our smartphone. When the sensitivity options are all set up, we picked up a few things we wouldn\u2019t have otherwise seen - like delivery drivers delivering packages, people approaching the door for unknown reasons, and so on.\nOther features we would expect are present too. You can check the battery status of your connected devices pretty easily, change the chime sound to a sound you like, and so on. You can also easily add another user - so if you live with someone else they can access the doorbell as well.\nAs is the case with most video recording security devices, you are prompted to subscribe to the video recording service - and if you don\u2019t you won\u2019t be able to use the Ring Video Doorbell 2 to its full potential. You won\u2019t, for example, be able to watch back video recorded when motion tracking is activated, and your previously recorded video will be deleted from your account.\nIt\u2019s kind of a bummer that there\u2019s no free subscription available. For example, some services allow you to watch back video within 24 hours before it\u2019s deleted, and SkyBell offers free cloud video storage to its customers, which is very helpful. With Ring, you\u2019ll have to pay $3/\u00a32.50/AU$4 per month or $30/\u00a325/AU$40 per year for one device, or $10/\u00a38/AU$15 per month or $100/\u00a380/AU$150 per year for multiple devices - which comes in handy if you have Ring security cameras.\nIt\u2019s not overly expensive, to be sure - but it would have been nice to be able to use a premium doorbell for its intended purpose without having to pay extra.",

        "raw_content": "CISV and Studieren Ohne Grenzen are the winners of the 1GOAL O2 Crew charity competition\nMUNICH/Germany. Over four thousand O2 Crew members took part in the Telef\u00f3nica O2 Germany charity competition for the 1GOAL initiative. The two organisations CISV Germany e.V. and Studieren Ohne Grenzen e.V. will each receive a donation of \u20ac10,000.\nUnder the motto 'Education for All', O2 issued a challenge in June via the O2 Crew web platform for its members to champion the theme of education and establish a crew of their own with friends and acquaintances. The two biggest crews are to receive \u20ac10,000 each from O2 for a charitable education project of their choice. The organisations CISV Germany e.V. and Studieren Ohne Grenzen came out top with 645 and 594 supporters respectively, and can be delighted about the donation. CISV Germany e.V. organises exchange programmes for children and young people with the aim of promoting intercultural communication and peace education. \"What is special about the projects is that values such as tolerance and individual responsibility are conveyed in a fun manner through workshops and camps\", explains Frank Steffen, captain of the winning crew. CISV wants to use the \u20ac10,000 for the 'International Meeting' in Berlin. There, under the patronage of Berlin's Mayor Klaus Wowereit, there will be a week of education and training sessions in August under the heading of Diversity and Cultural Awareness. Studieren Ohne Grenzen e.V. was founded by students who want to support their fellow students from regions affected by war and crisis. With its grants programme in Chechnya, the association enables young people to come to Germany to study a subject of their choice. \"With our prize from O2 we can finance a one-year grant for a talented person and offer the necessary prospects for the future\", explains Eva Hanau of Studieren Ohne Grenzen. \"The basic idea behind our project work corresponds strongly with the objectives of 1GOAL. We would like to thank O2 for supporting this initiative!\"\nTelef\u00f3nica O2 Germany GmbH & Co.

Two of the eight goals involve ending poverty through providing education for all, which ensured that all boys and girls complete primary schooling by 2015. Since then many countries have abolished school fees, spending was increased and an extra 40 million children are now going to school. However, today 75 million children are still unable to go to school. 1GOAL is an initiative to mobilise support to hold world leaders to these promises for 2015 and is run by the Global Campaign for Education and is part of a large global education initiative. http://www.join1goal.org 1GOAL is being coordinated by the GSMA, which represents the global mobile industry and is supported by more than 140 of the biggest names in the football world, among them Zinedine Zidane, Alessandro del Piero, Rio Ferdinand, Thierry Henry und Eusebio. From the entertainment world 1GOAL is supported by Shakira, Jessica Alba and Kevin Spacey.",

        "raw_content": "Thanks to the dysfunctional Knicks, the Mavs basically got Kristaps Porzingis for free.\nhttps://www.texasmonthly.com/article/the-mavericks-now-have-their-new-dirk-nowitzki-steve-nash-combo/\nKristaps Porzingis #6 of the New York Knicks shoots against the Brooklyn Nets during their game at the Barclays Center on January 15, 2018 in New York City.\nThe Dallas Mavericks unexpectedly landed a superstar on Thursday, trading for the New York Knicks\u2019 Kristaps Porzingis. It was a masterful move by the Mavs, who capitalized on a recently-turned-sour relationship between Porzingis and the Knicks to land the disgruntled seven-footer for essentially nothing, emerging from the deal with arguably the most promising guard-forward combo in the league.\nPorzingis was, until maybe 72 hours ago, the Knicks\u2019 franchise player. He melds strong defense around the rim with the ability to shoot from deep, and at 23 years old he\u2019s already one of the most dynamic players in the league. He was named to the All-Star team last year after averaging 22.7 points per game while shooting 39.5 percent from three, but he tore his ACL in February and hasn\u2019t played since. Pairing Porzingis with Mavs rookie Luka Doncic seems almost unfair. Assuming Porzingis fully recovers from his ACL injury\u2014and right now there\u2019s no indication that he won\u2019t\u2014he and the six-foot-seven Doncic should play well together. Mavs officials are already salivating, comparing the young stars to the old duo of Steve Nash and Dirk Nowitzki. \u201cWe obviously think Porzingis is a great young talent, similar in many ways to Dirk,\u201d coach Rick Carlisle said on the Mavs\u2019 flagship station, 103.3 FM ESPN, on Thursday, according to ESPN. \u201cThis is kind of a Dirk-and-[Steve] Nash type of situation, only these guys are taller.\u201d\nFor what it\u2019s worth, the addition of Porzingis has Nowitzki\u2019s complete approval. \u201cHe\u2019s got a franchise-type player game,\u201d Nowitzki said after the trade, according to the Dallas Morning News. \u201cHe\u2019s a perfect fit for the new NBA. He\u2019s mobile enough to play the four (power forward), he can be a spread-five (center), he can roll, block shots, post. Before he got hurt, he played a great all-around game\u2014and he\u2019s got the work ethic to be great.\u201d\nThe trade for Porzingis comes at a key moment for the Mavs. Nash, of course, is long gone, and Nowitzki is nearing retirement; the Mavericks have slipped from a perennial playoff team to a franchise in rebuild mode\u2014a rebuild that, until very recently, appeared to be going nowhere. Following their last playoff appearance in 2016, the Mavs tried to add some young core players in an attempt to keep the team competitive as Nowitzki slowly phased out of his star role, banking on Harrison Barnes (whom they signed to a max contract) and Nerlens Noel. It became clear in the 2016-17 season that those moves were not nearly enough, and Dallas finished with one of the worst records in the league. The Mavs earned a lottery pick, which they spent on guard Dennis Smith Jr., an athletic but raw talent. Smith showed promise as a rookie but wasn\u2019t able to put everything together, and with their lottery pick last year the Mavs took another guard, Doncic, signaling the start of a rebuild over a rebuild.\nDoncic immediately took the league by storm\u2014we wrote a little about that already\u2014and he has cemented himself as arguably the best young player in the league. At 23-28, the Mavs have shown improvement over last year, but it\u2019s clear that Doncic will need a stronger supporting cast going forward. Before the Porzingis trade, the Mavs had a weird mix of young talent and veterans, but it was not built for Doncic and was unlikely to work long-term. After the Porzingis trade, Doncic now has the most important part of any title contender in a perfect-complement superstar, and much sooner than expected. The Mavs gave up Smith (his role on the team was essentially nullified once Doncic emerged), veterans Deandre Jordan and Wesley Matthews, as well as two future unprotected first-round draft picks in return for Porzingis, Tim Hardaway Jr., Trey Burke, and Courtney Lee. None of those players except for Porzingis are likely to play large roles in the Mavs\u2019 future, but they\u2019re all serviceable role players for the time being. Trading for a superstar like Porzingis makes even more sense when you consider that the Mavs have been chronically unable to sign a true superstar through free agency, despite being awash in cash.\nBut the Mavs are still taking on some risk here. Porzingis could leave after 2020, when he is set to become an unrestricted free agent, and there are some concerns about his long-term durability. So it\u2019s possible the Mavs could end up with nothing out of this trade. They\u2019ll have to convince Porzingis that playing with Doncic is worth sticking around for, or at least that their franchise is a better-run outfit than the Knicks\u2014which won\u2019t be hard. There\u2019s a good chance Mavs fans will be able to enjoy the Doncic-Porzingis duo for years to come.\nTags: Sports, dallas mavericks, kristaps porzingis\nNow You Can Finally Show Your Mavs Fandom By Ordering A DirkWich\nBetting Your Way Through The Texas Teams In The NBA Playoffs",

Photo by Lance Rosenfield/Prime\nThe fracking boom has transformed vast parts of Texas, pumping money into local economies while raising fears about groundwater and air pollution. The boom has caused increased crime and truck traffic, and has likely spawned earthquakes. But the oil and gas bonanza has also brought more subtle, but no less significant, social changes. In this occasional series, Fractured State, we will examine how the oil economy has fractured families, communities and towns.\nRead the first story in the series here. The series is made possible in part by support from the Jacob and Terese Hershey Foundation.\nLandmen are agents of oil and natural gas producers; it is their job to get the mineral rights owner to claim a piece of the pie. Just sign right here, ma\u2019am. The purse is their power of persuasion. For some, the earnings amount to mere hundreds. The luckier souls who own the mineral rights to big ranches or whose properties sit atop particularly productive parts of the shale plays can receive tens of thousands of dollars in signing bonuses. Fat royalty checks roll in monthly. Newly minted \u201cmailbox millionaires\u201d can be spotted driving new pickups, or towing new bass boats, or returning from a couple of weeks off in Aspen.\nAlmost everyone takes the money. You\u2019d be crazy not to. According to industry estimates, oil and gas companies paid more than $15 million in royalties to Texans across the state in 2012. That doesn\u2019t include initial signing bonuses, which can be enormous. Houston-area oil and gas heir Daniel Harrison III collected $1 billion in cash in 2013 when Shell Oil Co. leased his 100,000-acre ranch in the Eagle Ford.\nBut across the shale plays\u2014primarily the Barnett in the north and the Eagle Ford in the south\u2014there are some who reject the landmen\u2019s offers. Known in the industry as \u201choldouts,\u201d these mineral rights owners dare to challenge Big Oil in Texas. It\u2019s a kind of principled madness that often baffles neighbors, family members and the industry itself. Unlike many fracking foes, the holdouts stand to benefit personally from oil and gas drilling. Yet they risk much more than money fighting to keep the fossil fuels in the ground. Some lose their health, their homes and their faith in the government as an arbiter of competing rights. Rarely are they able to stop the companies from drilling. For this uncommon breed, no amount of money can buy peace of mind.\nThese are the stories of three families who were willing to walk away from thousands of dollars\u2014and battle loved ones, their communities and their government\u2014to make a stand, even when facing insurmountable odds.\nWhen Amber Lyssy first laid eyes on the 564-acre farm in Wilson County, in 2000, she knew she and her fianc\u00e9, Fred, had a lot of work to do. The land was Fred\u2019s father\u2019s, part of a retirement package from the successful dairy business he founded with his brothers. Fred, his only son, wanted to work the land, turn it into a profitable farm and eventually buy it from his father. Fueled by dreams of a home on the range, Amber and Fred got to work raising cattle for auction. About a year later, when Amber was 20 and Fred was 24, they got married and moved to the farm.\n\u201cFrom the very onset of the ugliness Fred said, \u2018I really don\u2019t want anything to do with the money because I think it\u2019s wrong to poison people\u2019s children and I think it\u2019s wrong to poison the environment.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cFred fixed up a camp shack as our home, expecting that five years after being married we\u2019d build a new home\u2014a big, beautiful house. That never happened, by the way,\u201d Amber says with a sweet laugh.\nThey wanted to run an organic operation. Amber and Fred had been raising cattle the conventional, grain-fed way for a few years, and it took about five years to make the transition to organic. Eventually the two were selling 100 percent grass-fed beef, lamb, goat and pasture pork at local farmers markets and through the farm\u2019s website. Their dream of building a business\u2014and a home\u2014seemed within reach.\nThen the landmen came around. In 2008, the Eagle Ford Shale play in South Texas exploded with drilling activity. Almost overnight, the sleepy brush country transformed into a 50-mile-wide, 400-mile-long belt of drilling, flaring, barreling trucks, bustling man-camps and instant millionaires. The calm and quiet way of life in the rural prairie land was shattered.\nThe Lyssy farm was right in the middle of it. Right away, companies started approaching Fred\u2019s parents with offers to lease their mineral rights. They offered $50 an acre, about $28,000 total, plus future royalties. Fred\u2019s parents owned the farm and the majority of the mineral rights, but Fred\u2019s cousins had inherited minority shares from their fathers. (In Texas, mineral rights and property rights are severable; you might own the land but not the minerals, the minerals but not the land, or both the land and the minerals.) Neither Fred nor any of his six sisters had any mineral rights.\nAmber, who was pregnant with their first child, took to the Internet and started researching. She eventually got in touch with Sharon Wilson, a drilling-reform activist in North Texas, who schooled her about the air pollution and health problems that come with heavy fracking in the Barnett Shale. The couple grew alarmed as they pored over articles and studies about dangerous chemicals and pollutants. An organic farm was no place for fracking. Brahman and benzene don\u2019t mix. Plus, they worried about their kids breathing fouled air or drinking polluted water.\nThey went to Fred\u2019s parents, Fred Sr. and Agnes Ramos, who lived nearby, with their concerns. Fred\u2019s mother had grown up on an organic farm and his father had fought uranium mining near Falls City when it had threatened his dairy business decades earlier. They agreed that it was important to keep oil and gas off the farm.\nThe farm seemed safe.\nWhen I first talked to the Lyssys in March, they\u2019d managed to keep drilling off their land for six years. Amber spoke with pride of how Fred\u2019s parents had held to principle despite mounting pressure from within the family and the aggressive landmen.\n\u201cWe\u2019re very fortunate in that both his mother and his father believe that this property is an asset and believe in the ability of my husband to work his tail off and produce food from this property,\u201d Amber told me. \u201cWe\u2019re just extremely grateful.\u201d\nBut Fred and Amber were also eager to share stories of how fracking had encroached on their way of life.\nAfter fracking began in Wilson County, strange things seemed to be happening to the animals. Fred, who walked the property daily, began to see dead deer. He couldn\u2019t tell what had killed them, but he hadn\u2019t seen anything like it before in his years of living on farms. Then, in 2013, the Lyssys lost a family of Great Pyrenees dogs in a matter of days. One day in the spring, one of their four puppies was throwing up and another was scratching his face bloody and moaning. By the following day, the puppies\u2019 mother, who had been getting ready to birth a new litter within days, was dead and all four puppies had either died or disappeared. The vet ruled out rat poison and antifreeze, but could offer no explanation. Months later, the last of their guardian dogs died a similarly painful death. The family couldn\u2019t afford necropsies to find out what had caused the animals to meet such horrible ends.\nOn Jan. 14, 2014, Amber Lyssy encountered a tanker spilling fluid onto a rural road in Wilson County. She hurried home to drop her children off and return with a camera and jars to collect samples. Courtesy Youtube/TX sharon\nThe Lyssys were unsettled. They were afraid the dogs had been poisoned by something, or someone, on the farm. \u201cThey\u2019re your protectors, so when something like that happens you feel like you\u2019ve been invaded,\u201d Amber said.\nNot long after the last dog died, in January 2014, Fred\u2019s father passed away. Now the oil companies had a grieving widow to bargain with. The calls kept coming. Still, Agnes Ramos rejected their offers. But the landmen found a more receptive audience in other members of the family.\nOil and gas companies pay landmen to do their research when approaching mineral rights owners, and it\u2019s the landman\u2019s job to find pressure points. Amber says the landmen never contacted her or Fred; she believes they knew the two weren\u2019t interested because of their organic ranching business. Instead, they contacted Fred\u2019s sisters and other relatives, who also did not have mineral rights, but who might have persuaded Ramos to accept a lease offer.\nThe tension started to fracture the family. In February, Ramos told the online outlet InsideClimate News that the landmen were so eager to get access to her property that they had lied and trespassed, and divided her children. Ramos was frustrated that the companies wouldn\u2019t leave her alone, Amber says, and told the Lyssys that some companies went as far as to claim that some of the other mineral rights holders could sue her if she didn\u2019t lease. Nothing like that ever happened, but it frightened her. Fred\u2019s sisters continued talking to at least one oil company, Giant Resources, privately. \u201cMy daughters say, \u2018But Mom, God put the oil on the land to be used, so you are going against God,\u2019\u201d Ramos told InsideClimate. But if she gave in to the companies, she said, \u201cI would be going against God because he gave us this land to take care of.\u201d\nMeanwhile, biblical amounts of oil were coming out of the ground in Wilson County. By that time, the Lyssys\u2019 neighbors had taken lease offers. Three neighbors had wells on their properties and the young family couldn\u2019t escape the strong chemical odors that blew in from the south during the warmer months. They stopped letting their cattle graze on the southwestern corner of the farm, which bordered the nearest well.\nThe couple had been reluctant to criticize fracking because they didn\u2019t want to damage the farm\u2019s reputation and stunt their budding business. But shortly after Fred\u2019s father died, the Lyssys decided to speak out. Not many people in the Eagle Ford were willing to criticize fracking outside of hushed conversations among friends. Their friends in the Eagle Ford who opposed drilling, they said, wouldn\u2019t talk to reporters because they feared upsetting family members who had taken lease offers.\nAmber became a kind of fracking watchdog. When she saw a tanker truck spill fracking wastewater on a county road near her home and noticed a strong diesel smell coming from the pool it had formed on the ground, she collected a sample of the murky brown liquid and took it to the next county commissioners meeting, which she knew would be covered by the local news. The commissioners dismissed her complaint, but two months later in nearby Karnes County, the local sheriff\u2019s department, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and the Railroad Commission of Texas opened investigations into a similar incident where a tanker truck illegally dumped toxic wastewater on eight miles of roadway.\n\u201cMy daughters say, \u2018But Mom, God put the oil on the land to be used, so you are going against God.\u2019\u201d But if she gave in to the companies, she said, \u201cI would be going against God because he gave us this land to take care of.\u201d\n\u201cTo me, it\u2019s like, how many families are being negatively affected and nobody says a word?\u201d Amber told me in March. \u201cIt\u2019s all about the money.\u201d\nBut money has a way of wearing people down.\nWhen I caught up with the Lyssys in September, the family was in limbo. Fred\u2019s sisters had approached their mother in July with a 50-page lease offer ready to sign. Giant Resources was offering good money to lease the farm (the family declined to disclose the amount, and Ramos did not want to be interviewed) and favorable terms. According to Amber, Giant said it would eventually confine its operations to half an acre. Fred and his sisters would all get a cut of the profits. But Fred and Amber wouldn\u2019t budge. Things got ugly. Fred\u2019s sisters turned his mother against him, Amber says, and she stopped speaking to her only son.\n\u201cFrom the very onset of the ugliness, Fred said, \u2018I really don\u2019t want to have anything to do with the money because I think it\u2019s wrong to poison people\u2019s children and I think it\u2019s wrong to poison the environment,\u2019\u201d Amber says. Fred also warned his mother that the deal sounded too good to be true. Ultimately, he made the difficult decision of losing a part of his family\u2014and the progress he\u2019d made toward his dream of running a large-scale organic farm in Texas\u2014to stand up for his principles.\nAfter 13 years of working the land and creating a home there, the young family decided it was time to leave the farm and began looking for other options. They piled into Amber\u2019s father\u2019s Prius with their three kids and traveled across the country in search of a new farm where they could safely do the kind of work they wanted. Fred received tempting offers to manage farms in several states and ultimately decided to move to Virginia, where he\u2019ll be able to farm organically. In the fall, they began the laborious task of transplanting their operation across the country and were forced to sell much of their livestock.\nFred turned out to be right about the lease offer being too good to be true. In October, his mother told him that Giant Resources had withdrawn its offer after she hired an attorney to negotiate the specifics. As of this writing, Ramos has not reached another deal with Giant or with any other company. The Lyssys still believe that leaving the farm was the right decision for their family, even if it was difficult to say goodbye to what they thought would forever be their home.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very far away from family, which is hard,\u201d Amber says. \u201cThat\u2019s the thing that I had to really get over that was so unsettling\u2014when you look at something and you think this is it, for all time.\u201d\nYears before drilling rigs and tanker trucks became ubiquitous on South Texas ranchland, city dwellers in North Texas got their first taste of fracking. But unlike their rural neighbors to the south who own large tracts and can keep oil and gas companies out if they choose to, Metroplex residents don\u2019t always have a say in whether a company gets to tap the resources under their land. When the landmen come knocking here, it\u2019s only a matter of time before the drilling rigs show up, too.\nRanjana Bhandari learned that lesson in 2007, when Chesapeake Energy\u2014a notoriously aggressive natural gas producer with a big corporate footprint in Fort Worth and a large stake in shales in Texas, Pennsylvania and Ohio\u2014set its sights on the natural gas under her house. Bhandari lives in Interlochen, a high-end neighborhood in Arlington that evokes Interlaken, Switzerland. Her neighborhood might have its own canal system and a Christmas lights pageant that draws thousands each year, but most of her neighbors didn\u2019t find luxury living incompatible with gas drilling. They were happy to cash the checks from Chesapeake Energy. Today there are nine Chesapeake-owned gas wells within a 1-mile radius of Bhandari\u2019s home.\nRanjana Bhandari and her husband, Kaushik De, in their Arlington home. Allison V. Smith\nArlington became one of the first cities to contend with urban drilling when fracking came to the Barnett Shale in the mid-2000s. If fracking is now a global experiment, its first test subjects were found here in the Metroplex suburbs. Today, a drive down Division Street, an east-west artery that bisects the city, makes the dominance of the fracking industry clear. Long brick walls abut dirt roads that lead to massive tanks and fleets of trucks, barely visible through locked metal gates on the main road. Nothing is sacred. Gas companies have sunk wells inside neighborhoods, in parks and on school property. The athletic fields at Oakridge School, Arlington\u2019s premier private school, are home to a pad site with seven gas wells. Across the street, two more horizontal wells underlie the redbrick buildings of the main campus.\nIt wasn\u2019t always like this. When Bhandari and her husband, Kaushik De, moved to Texas 21 years ago from Michigan, fracking wasn\u2019t yet a dirty word\u2014it just sounded like one. The couple, originally from India, relocated so that De, a physicist, could pursue his research at the Superconducting Super Collider lab under construction in nearby Waxahachie. Congress pulled the plug on the project in 1993, months after the couple had lugged their belongings across the country and after De had accepted a teaching position at the University of Texas at Arlington. De continued to teach in Arlington, but ended up moving his research to the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland. Bhandari gave birth to their first child and later left work to care for him full time. Life was simple, quiet.\nThen, in 2007, the couple started receiving letters from Chesapeake. The company offered the family a signing bonus of about $5,000 per acre for their one-third acre tract, plus a 25 percent royalty interest if it could drill a horizontal well beneath their property. The well head would be in a park about 1,000 feet from their home, where mothers push strollers along the paved trails that line the creek and children play in the grass.\nChesapeake also approached 502 other nearby property owners. Most of the residents took Chesapeake\u2019s offers, some after holding out briefly to negotiate better terms. A group of residents eventually got Chesapeake to move the well head out of their neighborhood, but the company would still be drilling horizontally underneath Interlochen. Resistance gave others leverage to demand higher signing bonuses, and at one point Chesapeake bumped the offer to $17,000 per acre. Bhandari\u2019s was one of the few families that refused the higher offer, too. They would have received nearly $6,000 up front plus a monthly royalty check\u2014welcome cash for a single-income family with a young child. But Bhandari was not satisfied with pushing the problem onto another neighborhood. Sure, she had seen the billboards with a steely-eyed Tommy Lee Jones urging, \u201cLet\u2019s get behind the Barnett Shale,\u201d but she wasn\u2019t convinced the process would be as quick and painless as the landmen promised. When fracking came to her doorstep, she, like many mothers around the country\u2019s shale plays, started to question the industry\u2019s claims.\n\u201cWe looked at both sides of the equation\u2014the money they promised us and the negative, and we felt that that didn\u2019t justify the negative,\u201d Bhandari says. \u201cI couldn\u2019t justify having benzene in the air for everybody to breathe [just] because they were promising us a big check. In the end, you can\u2019t breathe the money.\u201d\nFor four years, Chesapeake persisted. At one point, Bhandari says, a company representative told the couple that even if they refused, the company would find a way to drill under their land and take the natural gas.\n\u201cI thought government served the people and that we paid for the Railroad Commission to regulate industry, and it was interesting to see how it actually did work in real life.\u201d\nChesapeake wasn\u2019t bluffing. By obtaining an exception to a century-old law that sets minimum distance requirements between oil wells, the company sought to drill right up to the family\u2019s property line without the couple\u2019s consent. The law, called Rule 37, was written to protect the rights of mineral rights owners by creating a buffer that prevents others from taking their minerals. To get the exception, Chesapeake needed to get enough of Bhandari\u2019s neighbors to lease their tracts.\nThe family tried to warn neighbors about the dangerous pollutants fracking unleashes and the decreased property values that could come with it. Most told them that, as Texans, they had grown up around drilling. What was all the fuss about? \u201cWho do you think you are, Erin Brockovich?\u201d one neighbor asked Bhandari, half-jokingly. The soft-spoken former economics professor shuddered at the thought; she had been happy researching and quietly approaching neighbors, but had no interest in making noise.\nEveryone was amiable, she says; they just didn\u2019t understand what she could possibly think was so wrong with fracking that she would turn down \u201cfree\u201d money. Others didn\u2019t think it was worth the effort, even if they didn\u2019t want the drilling, to stand up to the industry only to lose. Just a handful joined Bhandari and De in challenging Chesapeake. While their neighbors used their thousands in signing bonuses to deck out their homes with new furniture, the couple and a few other families prepared to go before a Railroad Commission examiner, a commission employee who oversees a court-like hearing. By the time of the hearing, in June 2011, Chesapeake had obtained access to all but 30 of the 503 tracts it needed to start drilling. Fort Worth residents who had been through the process warned the families they would lose their case before the state\u2019s regulatory agency, which is notoriously cozy with industry.\nWhen an energy company seeks a Rule 37 exception, the Railroad Commission is all but guaranteed to grant it. Oil and gas companies rarely encounter resistance\u2014and when they do, they spend tens of thousands of dollars on attorneys who can easily crush individual landowners who have little to no knowledge of the process.\n\u201cI think in the context of the urban environment \u2026 little lot owners don\u2019t have enough knowledge or resources or the ability to be able to protect themselves,\u201d says John McFarland, an Austin-based oil and gas lawyer who helps mineral rights owners negotiate terms with energy companies. \u201cWhat are they going to do, file a protest? Then they have to bring a lawyer to the hearing and they\u2019re not going to do that.\u201d\nIf they can\u2019t hire a lawyer who specializes in arguing these kinds of cases, the \u201cprotesters,\u201d as the Railroad Commission calls them, have to represent themselves. As Bhandari would soon find out, that\u2019s no easy feat. \u201cThe commission is not a very friendly place for landowners; they don\u2019t help you out,\u201d McFarland says. \u201cThey recognize you have the right to file a protest, but it\u2019s up to you to understand the rules\u2014just like any kind of court proceeding, they expect you to know what you\u2019re doing.\u201d\nThe family went up against Chesapeake\u2019s high-dollar attorneys without legal representation. Bhandari thought they made a compelling case nonetheless. The only thing to do was to wait for the Railroad Commission to make a decision. One month later, the couple received a letter from Chesapeake\u2019s attorney. The company had agreed to maintain a \u201cno-perforation zone\u201d around their home, meaning the company wouldn\u2019t draw gas from within 330 feet of their property line. Goliath, it seemed, had been wounded.\n\u201cI couldn\u2019t justify having benzene in the air for everybody to breathe [just] because they were promising us a big check. In the end, you can\u2019t breathe the money.\u201d\nThen came the letter from the Railroad Commission. Ten months after the hearing\u2014and after Chesapeake\u2019s reassuring letter\u2014the agency notified the family that it had granted Chesapeake the exception it sought, effectively allowing the company to siphon the natural gas under their home without paying the couple a dime. Unlike their neighbors who leased their mineral rights to Chesapeake, the family never received a signing bonus and will never see a royalty check.\n\u201cFor me, that was a real learning experience; I thought government served the people and that we paid for the Railroad Commission to regulate industry, and it was interesting to see how it actually did work in real life,\u201d Bhandari says. \u201cI learned the power of oil and gas and learned the disregard for individual property owners that our state has. I understood how toxic this process is and how few tools we have to fight it or to protect our families from it, and so it has changed the way we live.\u201d\nNo victory, no money, and she still has to choke on bad air. But Bhandari doesn\u2019t have any regrets. If she had it to do over, Bhandari says, she would still refuse the money and fight Chesapeake. The money, she believes, is tainted. Fracking is linked to increased tremors in North Texas\u2014in early January, at least a dozen earthquakes, ranging from 1.6 to 3.6 magnitude, shook Irving in less than 36 hours\u2014and releases dangerous chemicals, including the carcinogen benzene, into the atmosphere. She believes that taking the money would make her complicit. Instead, since losing to the company, she has installed solar panels on her roof and purchased an electric car. She hasn\u2019t bought gasoline in more than a year.\n\u201cThere are too many things I can\u2019t do, but those are things I could do,\u201d she says.\nFor Greg Hughes, marching into battle with Chesapeake Energy was the only thing to do\u2014even if he was sure to lose. Hughes\u2019 home is sandwiched between the Clear Fork of the Trinity River and Texas Christian University in Fort Worth. Catty-corner from the neighborhood country club and less than a mile from Hughes\u2019 home, Chesapeake Energy planned to build a pad site from which it would run a horizontal well under Hughes\u2019 property. A systems engineer, Hughes has spent the last decade working on Lockheed Martin\u2019s F-35 fighter jet after gigs testing safety systems at a nuclear power plant and improving the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey.\nHughes isn\u2019t against oil and gas development or even fracking. His position reflects his professional interest in risk reduction: He believes the industry hasn\u2019t tried hard enough to make fracking safe in densely populated areas. Oil companies go to far greater lengths to make refineries safe, he says, because the consequences of a single failure can be catastrophic and extremely expensive, but \u201cthe consequences to a company of failure in the field are very low, so they don\u2019t have a lot of interest in putting effort into risk avoidance.\u201d\nGreg Hughes: \u201cWe joked along the way that we knew we were going to lose, we just wanted to know how.\u201d Allison V. Smith\nBy the time Chesapeake started sending Hughes and his neighbors letters about leasing their mineral rights, in 2009, he was already involved with efforts to fight urban drilling.\nHughes doesn\u2019t remember receiving a formal offer from the company; it simply invited him to consider leasing his mineral rights. Chesapeake successfully obtained leases for 122 tracts to sink the well, but 12 residents including Hughes were either not offered deals or didn\u2019t accept them. When the Railroad Commission notified Hughes and his family that Chesapeake intended to obtain a Rule 37 exception to drill underneath their property anyway, he didn\u2019t hesitate: He\u2019d fight. The company later withdrew its permit and then filed for the exception again, but this time none of the 12 residents were notified. The Railroad Commission automatically granted the permit. When Hughes found out, he teamed up with two of his neighbors, who were attorneys, to fight Chesapeake.\nPreparing \u201cfor battle,\u201d as Hughes says, was fun even if it involved hard work and long hours. He\u2019s a \u201cprojects guy,\u201d he says, and this particular project gave him the opportunity to \u201cdocument the ownership of the Railroad Commission by the petrochemical industry\u201d in a public forum.\n\u201cThe crazy part is that we spent time and money on travel, hotels, et cetera, to be at the hearings in Austin in order to avoid selling something to someone,\u201d Hughes says. \u201cThere was no way we were going to recover our costs; we knew that going in. And that\u2019s not to mention the countless hours of wading through all the filings their attorneys threw at us. We were getting an envelope every other day with something.\u201d\nAs part of each application for an exception, a company must submit a list of all the affected parties\u2014whether competitors with nearby operations or landowners with unleased tracts\u2014to the Railroad Commission. The affected parties then have 20 days to object, after which the exception is granted automatically if the protesters haven\u2019t responded. If a party objects, the \u201cprotester\u201d must travel to a hearing before a Railroad Commission examiner in Austin. Each side can call witnesses and present evidence, but the hearings rarely turn out in favor of the landowner. In 2012, a Reuters investigation found that during the previous seven years the Railroad Commission had rejected only five of Chesapeake\u2019s 1,628 requests for Rule 37 exceptions. The company had requested far more exceptions than any of its competitors, filing nearly twice the number of applications as XTO, a subsidiary of ExxonMobil and the largest producer of natural gas in the country.\n\u201cWe joked along the way that we knew we were going to lose, we just wanted to know how,\u201d Hughes says. \u201cBecause the other joke was, \u2018Hey, I don\u2019t really have anything better to do\u2014why not take on the petrochemical industry in Texas?\u2019\u201d\nIn 2012, a Reuters investigation found that during the previous seven years the Railroad Commission had rejected only five of Chesapeake\u2019s 1,628 requests for Rule 37 exceptions.\nIn the end, Hughes says, the way he and his neighbors lost is a perfect example of how the process is rigged in favor of the industry. One year after the hearing, in October 2011, the Railroad Commission granted Chesapeake the Rule 37 exception\u2014and named as its reason for doing so the protection of correlative rights, which essentially guarantee that each mineral rights owner has a right to his fair share of minerals in a shared reservoir. But the transcripts show that Chesapeake presented no testimony and no evidence making that argument. Chesapeake\u2019s attorney mentioned correlative rights once in his opening statement, and later objected when Hughes\u2019 team tried to question a witness on the matter. When they persisted, Chesapeake\u2019s attorney interrupted again and the examiner suggested a new line of questioning. The commission sided with the mineral rights owners on all the other \u201cconclusions of law.\u201d Still, Chesapeake obtained its permit.\n\u201cWe found that to be rather ironic, kind of like if a judge all of a sudden thinks to himself, \u2018The prosecution could have brought up this point but they failed to, but I think it\u2019s a valid one\u2019\u2014and then issues a ruling on that basis,\u201d Hughes says. \u201cThings like that can make you cynical about government. It\u2019s kind of sickening that it wasn\u2019t even veiled and at that point we had the option to craft an appeal, and we basically just stopped.\u201d\nAn appeal would have been prohibitively expensive and would have taken more time than the year he and his two neighbors had already put into fighting Chesapeake, Hughes says. \u201cAt the end of the day that would not change the nature of [the oil and gas] industry-government relationships in Texas,\u201d he says. \u201cUnless those changed, we weren\u2019t really going to accomplish anything.\u201d\nLike Bhandari, Hughes says he would take on Chesapeake again, even though he\u2019d be doomed to lose. For Hughes and the other holdouts, there are just some things money can\u2019t buy.\nIn a state where fossil fuels built the schools and universities, buttress the economy and fund the politicians, the holdouts have few weapons other than their principles.\n\u201cThere\u2019s just some things that you can know you\u2019re going up against the odds, but maybe in the long run someone else might benefit because you\u2019ve raised questions that needed to be raised,\u201d Hughes says. \u201cIn the longer run, I think it\u2019s really important to us all. If you see something that needs to be fought, and you can, then fight it.\u201d\nPriscila Mosqueda is a contributing writer at the Observer, where she previously interned.

The inmates learnt new skills, and lovingly brought the boat back to its former glory.\nThe boat was in terrible condition when the Club took it over. The Huon pine was rotted and looked unrecognizable. Sustainable Timber Tasmania assisted with the supply of Huon pine, Oregon and Celery Top timber.\nThe Vanessa G is a fitting name for the boat reflecting the respect prisoners at Risdon Prison had for the Corrections Minister\nThe Vanessa G will be auctioned during the Wooden Boat Festival with all proceeds going to Risdon Prison to fund further projects.\nThe pride is obvious in all who have been involved in this project. There is a universal wish that the boat will go to a great new home and enjoy a new lease of life.\n( We will post a post script to this story and let you know the outcome of the auction!)",

        "title": "Does Romney's Tax Plan Really Cost $5 Trillion? Not at All - The Atlantic",
        "raw_content": "Does Romney's Tax Plan Really Cost $5 Trillion? Not at All\nYou might have heard it on the campaign trail, on cable news, in liberal op-eds: Mitt Romney wants to cut taxes by $5 trillion.\nIt's not true. Mitt Romney has never proposed a tax plan that would cut revenue by $5 trillion. But here's why the little fib exists.\nMitt Romney has proposed cutting federal income tax rates by 20 percent, a change that, on its own, would lower revenue by almost $5 trillion over the next 10 years. But he's also proposed cutting tax spending by the same amount; keeping today's low rates for families making less than $250,000; and keeping the current tax burden on the highest earners. These proposals cannot all be true at the same time, according to analysis from the Tax Policy Center. In fact, the Romney tax plan is something of a myth.\nBut liberals risk constructing a parallel myth when they suggest that Romney's plan would cut taxes by $5 trillion when in fact his proposal is to cut taxes by zero dollars. If you don't believe his plan, then you don't believe his plan. If you think he's lying about his plan, then you think he's lying. But there's a big difference between saying Mitt Romney's lying/has proposed a fantasy tax plan and saying Mitt Romney's tax plan cuts taxes by $5 trillion. The first is opinion. The second is false.\nMy opinion is that Romney's plan is too vague to say practically anything about it. If Romney wants to cut tax rates by 20 percent, he's proposing a plan that almost certainly loses revenue. If he's proposing a plan that doesn't lose revenue or raise taxes on upper-middle class famlies, then the most specific element of his plan has to go. In fact, I think the president aptly criticized its vagueness in the debate:\n\"Now, Governor Romney's proposal that he has been promoting for 18 months calls for a $5 trillion tax cut, on top of $2 trillion of additional spending for our military. And he is saying that he is going to pay for it by closing loopholes and deductions. The problem is that he's been asked over 100 times how you would close those deductions and loopholes, and he hasn't been able to identify them.\"\nBut the campaign trail, he's played a little fast-and-loose with that $5 trillion figure:\n\"My opponent, he believes in top-down economics, thinks that if you spend another $5 trillion on a tax cut skewed toward the wealthy that prosperity will rain down on everybody else,\" the president said at a campaign event in Milwaukee.\nLet's be clear. Romney hasn't proposed a tax plan that adds up to negative-$5 trillion. He's proposed a tax plan that adds up to practically nothing, at all.",

        "title": "The Day - Cover story: Local musicians do what it takes to sustain a career - News from southeastern Connecticut",
        "raw_content": "Cover story: Local musicians do what it takes to sustain a career\nBrian Merritt (Peter Huoppi/The Day)\nIt's a Sunday night in late January, and the lounge area in Mystic's Steak Loft is brimming with close-out-the-weekend folks. Maybe they came for food and/or cocktails, and it's even possible a few are there to watch the insomnia-curing NFL Pro Bowl on the bar's big screen televisions.\nThe focus, though, seems to be on the room's small corner entertainment stage and suggests the crowd has come to see a group called The Cartells. Now nearing the end of their 32nd year as a full-time band, The Cartells have long been one of the region's most popular and enduring bands.\n\"A little math and I'd say we've played about 4,500 gigs,\" says Karin Barth, the band's lead vocalist/multi-instrumentalist and business manager. Then, as the magnitude of that number sinks in, she adds, \"Oh, sweet Jesus! That should make me tired, right?\"\n\"Yeah, 4,500 sounds about right,\" smiles keyboardist/vocalist Joe Grieco, The Cartells' other co-founding member. \"That means we've only played 'Brown-Eyed Girl' about 3,700 times and 'Mustang Sally' around 3,500 times.\"\nCover band humor.\nFor, indeed, The Cartells are one of those accomplished and committed acts that exist solely to make a sustained career in music in a context that's not about writing and focusing on their own music. Both situations are absolutely about love of music, but carving out a living at one or the other are two different things. For bands like the Cartells, the job description is to play several sets a night, multiple days a week \u2014 in duo, trio, quartet and full-horn-band lineups \u2014 of custom-tailored setlists designed to provide the perfect soundtrack at club gigs, dances, corporate functions, weddings and Bar Mitzvahs, private parties, benefits, or Happy Hours.\n\"(Stardom) has never been the dream for us,\" Grieco says. \"We did one original project, and I've enjoyed writing music. We know plenty of the original songwriters in the area, and that's what they do and that's great. And stardom isn't necessarily the goal there, either. It's how you go about your craft. For me, I love to play, and this is how it works for us; if a song makes someone happy, I'm happy to play it. When I was young and caught on to the pure joy of playing and the idea of getting to do it for a living, however that worked out, it was an amazing realization.\"\n\"In 1976, I wanted to be Bonnie Raitt,\" Barth says. \"That's what I was about, but the odds are incredibly long. Eventually, I learned that, if you want to do this for a living, you figure out a way. This. Is. A. Business. Joe and I have employers and subcontractors, and we treat them with respect. It's not easy and it's not for the faint of heart, but we've worked hard and done well. I love that the universe has blessed us in this industry.\"\nBarth's sentiment seems to be a similar mantra for a lot of area musicians who've found a way to work full time at what they love. It's frenetic, to be sure, but also fulfilling.\nBrian Merritt, for example, doesn't sleep much. A Mystic resident who grew up addicted to his father's classic rock collection and then learned to play guitar studying metal acts, he now plays five to 10 nights a month as the lead guitarist for the long-in-demand rock cover band Wicked Peach. There are several more monthly shows in Lewis & Merritt, an acoustic duo he has with WP vocalist Ernie Lewis. Merritt is also a professional luthier with his own Merritt Guitars company, where he builds and repairs instruments. And, yes, he also teaches guitar. And he spent years working in music stores.\n\"Playing ALWAYS makes me feel better,\" Merritt says. \"I've played when I was really sick or exhausted and stressed out \u2014 and it always makes me happy. Often, I'll finish a gig and be so amped that I'll come home and play guitar for three more hours.\"\nWhile Merritt spent time early in his career in original bands, he realized the long odds. He also fathered twins and made the decision to stay close to home and subsequently designed his musical career around that priority.\n\"I don't know if I ever wanted stardom,\" Merritt says. \"I don't know that I'd handle it well; that takes a different sort of confidence. I also don't know that fame is necessarily the goal of all original bands. I thing overall it's that all of us love music. Music takes me to a happy place, and this is how it works best for me.\"\n\"Writing and playing your own songs is definitely fun, but it's not easy,\" says Steve Cleary, who was taking college-level harmony courses while a student at Waterford High School. \"It's something I like to work on, but it's just part of the overall story, which is that I love to play music. And I wanted to make a living at it.\"\nHe pauses, wanting to make sure he's not leaving anyone out as he describes the number of folks involved in his life as a full-time musician. Although he plays regular solo singer-guitarist gigs focusing on Irish music in clubs like the Landsdowne Pub in Mohegan Sun and the Inishmore Pub in Colchester, he also expands that repertoire heading up Irish band Clan O'Cleary \u2014 which can number anywhere from two to five musicians at any given gig. He also does numerous solo, duo and trio gigs playing top 40 and soft rock tunes, performs in the funk-rock Clarkes 'n' Cleary trio as well as prog band the Lawnboys. He's also kept a heavy teaching schedule for decades \u2014 a practice that maxed out a few years back with 60 lessons a week.\n\"Of course it can get tiresome,\" he laughs, \"but explain to me why I keep thinking of new configurations and styles of music to try? I think (frequent collaborator/percussionist) Che Cartafalsa and I are going to start a calyso duo. Why not? I love it.\"\nJames Harris carries a leather satchel with him. Inside is a laptop and a few old-school monthly datebooks \u2014 the pages of which are crammed with scribbled notations of gigs and appointments with guitar students. A graduate of Fitch High School who has a degree from the Berklee School of Music, Harris plays 15 to 17 solo shows a month as a singer/guitarist at area venues like the Daniel Packer Inne, Perks & Corks and the Harp & Hound and, like his contemporaries, maintains a busy teaching schedule.\nHarris grew up listening to his parents' classic rock collection and started to love guitar. In school, hanging out with like-minded kids and starting to play music was, he says, \"a cultural decision; (music) was a place to land as a kid.\" And though he played in the high school pit band for musicals, collaborated and jammed with a variety of fellow students in college and played coffee shops and open mic nights, Harris says he concentrated on disciplines at Berklee that helped him in areas ranging from performance to business.\n\"Music seemed to me from the beginning a sort of solo endeavor,\" Harris says. \"Maybe that's an usual approach. But it works for me. I primarily make my living playing cover songs, and I enjoy it. If you're watching and listening to me and you're happy, then I'm happy. I do enjoy writing my own songs, and I'll play some of them at gigs. It's fun when people respond or even ask for them, but I'm gratified when the audience responds to anything I'm playing.\"\nVersatility and stamina\nCentral to these folks' success is an ability to please virtually any audience demographic, which is why they all have ready songlists that frequently number in the hundreds.\n\"As a band, The Cartells have a couple of hundred songs we can pull from at any point,\" Grieco says. \"We never rehearse because we basically don't have to. In terms of my solo piano gigs, it'd have to be thousands of songs I could play. I did a lot of piano bars for a while, and my goal was to be the best human jukebox I could be. I'd take a request and give it the best I could. Even if I screwed up, I'd try to make that aspect of it fun for the audience.\" He pauses and laughs. \"You know what's been a great invention? Lyrics on cell phones.\"\n\"I've done six-hour gigs at Tuscany and didn't repeat one song,\" Harris says. \"If my hands get tired, I'll switch to a different guitar. If my voice gets tired, I've learned to control it and how to push it if I have to. I've actually had rare occasions where I did three or four gigs in one day.\" He smiles. \"I would not recommend that.\"\nBarth, who was leaving the day after the Steak Loft gig for a week's vacation in the islands that she treats herself to annually, says the reality of Time can be intimidating.\n\"Thirty-three years in this band and we're still standing,\" she says. \"I play with some of the most talented guys on the East Coast. They'd be welcome at any studio session. We all know how lucky we are and that we've reached the point where age and health become factors. Is it fun to still hump gear at 3 a.m. in the cold? But you get onstage, and it's still wonderful. Can we do autopilot? Of course! But you see a bride dance with her dad to their song, or a crowd react happily to a song they've heard a thousand times. It's still magical to them \u2014 and so it's magical to us, too.\"\nMerritt reflects on the fact that what he does really IS a full-time job.\n\"Another thing about this business is that it's always changing regardless of the setlist. I've had students that got so good there was nothing left for me to teach them. That's actually pretty cool,\" he says. \"And, a few weeks ago, friends asked me to be part of a one-time-only Pearl Jam tribute night. What ended up happening, I had to get up at 3 a.m. to learn a solo for that gig. That's the only time I could do it. How great is that?\"\nMembers of the Cartells, from left, Tom Majesky, Bill Holloman and Joe Grieco play at the Steak Loft bar.

        "title": "The Faculty Lounge: Disgraceful Developments at Cooley Law School",
        "raw_content": "\u00ab Jerry Anderson Named Dean Of Drake Law | Main | New ALI Members \u00bb\nDisgraceful Developments at Cooley Law School\nThe ABA Standard 509 reports came out a few weeks ago, and there are many alarming statistics in them, but none quite so disturbing as the admissions information from Western Michigan University Thomas M. Cooley Law School. The class that Cooley admitted in 2015 is statistically the worst entering class of law students in the history of American legal education at an ABA-Accredited law school, and that is saying something.\nJust last year, Cooley, for many years the easiest law school to get into in America, was winning praise for not following many of its competitor schools and dramatically lowering their admission standards. (Continued below the fold)\nIn an article in Inside Higher Ed education writer Ry Rivard noted:\nThomas M. Cooley Law School \u2013 the largest law school in the country \u2013 is known for admitting students other law schools would not touch. The reputation is increasingly inaccurate. Last fall, seven law schools had entering classes with lower median LSAT scores than Cooley\u2019s.\nRivard noted that holding the line on admissions had a huge impact on Cooley:\nBecause it has not lowered its admissions standards, Cooley has taken quite a hit. Its first-year class had 1,161 students in 2011. This year\u2019s incoming class was about 60 percent smaller \u2013 just 445 students. As a result of the enrollment losses, Cooley is working to close one of its five campuses.\nCooley\u2019s President took credit for acting responsibly despite \u201cfacing more competition for students with an LSAT score of around 145.\u201d\nDon LeDuc, the president and dean of Cooley, said the school\u2019s level student profile is a result but not the intent of admissions policies that have remained virtually unchanged despite the shocks in the market.\nPresident LeDuc claimed that their admissions polices were calibrated to meet ABA standard 501 \u201ca school shall not admit an applicant who does not appear capable of satisfactorily completing its program of legal education and being admitted to the bar.\u201d According to LeDuc:\nCooley uses a predictive model to tell all students their chances of success based on their GPA and LSAT. The school doesn\u2019t admit anyone with less than a two-thirds chance of succeeding.\nCooley\u2019s recent bar results have cast some doubt on President LeDuc\u2019s claims, as noted in this article in Above the Law. According to its 509 report, the school\u2019s overall first time pass rate was 55% in 2012, 51% in 2013 and 52% in 2014, despite significant levels of attrition. Nevertheless, at least as of last year, Cooley could plausibly claim to be meeting ABA Standard 501. That is no longer the case.\nIn 2015, Cooley abandoned all pretense of maintaining sound admission policies, significantly lowering its LSAT and GPA standards across the board, as can be seen by comparing their 2014 and 2015 matriculating student credentials.\nGPA/LSAT 75th 50th 25th # of Students\n2014 3.28/149 2.90/145 2.53/141 445\nOnce again in 2015, Cooley was faced with a choice \u2013 shrink the entering class, or lower standards, or some combination of the two. After four years of shrinking its class, Cooley abandoned that approach and simply lowered its already rock-bottom standards.\nThe credentials of the part-time entering class, which makes up 90% of admitted students were even more appalling:\nIn percentile terms, this means that Cooley matriculated over 100 part-time students with LSATs of 137 or below, comprising the bottom 8% of LSAT-takers. While there may be very rare exceptions, there is simply no evidence to support a belief that a student with a 137 or lower LSAT and mediocre or worse college grades has a reasonable prospect of becoming a lawyer. The average MBE score for a student with a 137 LSAT is approximately 128. The average state bar exam cut score, including in Michigan (where most Cooley graduates take the bar) is 135.\nThe bottom line is that Cooley has once again regained its rightful place as the law school of last resort, surpassing even the InfiLaw schools in the race to the bottom. In fact, Cooley is perilously close to having an open admissions policy. In 2015, Cooley admitted 88% of applicants, up from 85% in 2014.\nWhy did Cooley abandon its commitment to semi-defensible admissions policies? The answer seems obvious \u2013 they needed the money to stay in business.\nThe more interesting question is this: Why does Cooley think it can get away with it? The unfortunate answer is that the leadership of the ABA Council of the Section of Legal Education has strongly signaled that the Council is very unlikely to take action against a school simply for dropping admission standards. (See my prior post on this topic here.) Because Cooley had an ABA site visit in 2013-14, and are not due for another site visit until the 2020-2021 school year, Cooley is clearly gambling that they can weather the downturn in applications by lowering their standards without jeopardizing their accreditation. The ABA Council on Legal Education, if it is to maintain any credibility at all, should not allow Cooley to get away with it.\nPosted by David Frakt at 11:05 AM in ABA, Accreditation, Bar Examinations, Law School News, Legal Education | Permalink\nI applied for the one of the at-large positions on the ABA Council this year, but was never contacted. Those who think that it would be useful to have someone like me on the ABA Council Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar are welcome to nominate me at the link provided by Matt. If you need any information, contact me at david@fraktlaw.com.\nPosted by: David Frakt | January 27, 2016 at 12:53 PM\nPaul Campos -\nThank you for providing this historical context.\nMack - I too noticed the lack of the usual defenders. Makes me think the usual defenders are affiliated with InfiLaw and happy to see Cooley taking the heat for a change.\nThe next step will be the ABA, backed by law schools like Cooley, trying to lower the bar exam requirements in every state by claiming they're racist/discriminatory and that entry and graduation from any law school, regardless of the admission criteria, is sufficient to prove that someone is able to practice law in any state. Count on it.\n@ Jackie\nDean Allard of Brooklyn is already making that claim. The plummeting Brooklyn Law School admission statistics have nothing to do with his position. No. thing.\nPosted by: terry malloy | January 27, 2016 at 03:46 PM\nTake a look at Golden Gate Law's bar pass rate.\nInterestingly, the admission standards there seem a bit higher than Cooley's.\nGiven Golden Gate's record, should one surmise it is just the poor instruction there, or is there some other factor at play?\nThe bar exam in California is much tougher than in Michigan. The MBE cut score in California is 144, second only to Delaware's 145, and much higher than Michigan's 135. So, California law schools have to have higher admission standards if they want to have a halfway decent bar pass rate. This would explain why Golden Gate might have a lower bar pass rate while accepting slightly stronger students. But if you compare apples to apples and not apples to oranges, you can see that Cooley is not actually doing better than Golden Gate head to head. Quite a few Cooley students take the California bar exam, and they do atrociously. Cooley's 509 report shows that in 2013, 5 of 40 Cooley grads passed the bar the first time, a 12.5% pass rate. In the summer of 2014, 1 out of 16 Cooley students passed the California bar on their first attempt. In February 2015, Cooley grads were 0 for 10 in California. On the July 2015 California bar, Cooley students went 0 for 8 on their first try. So, on the last 3 California bar exams, Cooley is 1 for 34 (3%).\nWhat these numbers point to is that the statistics published by a law school about their bar pass rate are often quite misleading. Law schools need only report from enough jurisdictions so that 70% of their students are covered. Even though Cooley was 0 for 18 in California in 2015, these students won't be reflected in their reported bar pass rate for 2015 because Cooley will almost certainly not include the California students in the 70% that they do report. A school's real bar pass rate could easily be 5 or 10 percentage points lower than the reported rate if schools were required to report all results instead of just states that add up to 70%.\nSOrry for the misunderstanding. I didn't mean to state that \"Cooley is not doing better than Golden Gate at all.\" (I'm still pondering that construction: you are thinking that I meant that Cooley is doing better than Golden Gate or that Golden Gate is doing better than Cooley?) In any event, I meant neither.\nIf I am reading its disclosures correctly:\nFor 2014, Golden Gate's bar pass rate was more than 20% points lower than the state wide average.\nFor 2013, Golden Gate's bar pass rate was more than 15% lower than the state wide average.\nBecause the measure is off state averages, this metric is more valid, it seems to me, than trying to see how Cooley students did on the California bar. In any event, I wasn't interested much in comparing Cooley to Golden Gate.\nMy point was this: Golden Gate's history is public knowledge. If you are not familiar with it, you might want to take a look and think about how that might influence your thoughts.\nMy question was this: the LSAT profile of Golden Gate's admits is not necessarily within the danger zones that you identify with respect to law schools overall. If reliance on LSAT scores is valid across the board, should we surmise that Golden Gate suffers more from poor instruction than from underqualified admits?\nOk. I think I understand what you are asking now, although I am not really sure what you are driving at or why. It seems that you are saying that Golden Gate's bar results are lower than they should be based on the LSAT profile of their admitted students. So, for example, looking at the entering class of 2011, Golden Gate had an entering class of 155/152/150. I think you are suggesting that a class composed of students with those LSAT scores should have done better on the 2014 bar than they actually did, and asking me if I think that the problem is poor instruction.\nFirst of all, I have no personal knowledge about the quality of teaching instruction at Golden Gate, but my experience has been that the quality of instruction is pretty good and pretty comparable at most law schools, so I tend to doubt that is the explanation, but it certainly could be part of the problem if it is true that Golden Gate students underperformed their potential. But, generally speaking, it is not all that surprising that Golden Gate's numbers are 15-20% below the state average and there could be several explanations other than quality of instruction.\nFirst, Golden Gate has a significant transfer attrition problem. Many of its top students leave for other bay area schools with better reputations, so that tends to depress the bar pass results. Second, there is a hidden 24% of students that we don't know about, since schools only report at the 25th percentile. Since Golden Gate's 25th was at 150 in 2011, most, if not all of the remaining 24% of the admitted students would be considered to be high risk or higher if they were at 149 or below. This is especially true in California where the cutoff scores are much higher. Third, there are many really good schools in California (Stanford, Berkeley, Hastings, Davis, UCLA, USC, Pepperdine, Loyola, USD, UC Irvine, Santa Clara) and several not so good schools so there is often a significant disparity between the good and not good.\nWhatever is causing Golden Gate's bar passage problems, their bar passage rate is not likely to improve anytime soon, because their admission standards have plummeted since 2011. In 2015, their median dropped to 148 and their 25th to 145, and even lower (143) for their part-time division. This is a recipe for bar disaster in California, where students at 145 and below do extremely poorly (as evidenced by the recent bar results from Whittier, Thomas Jefferson, Cooley, the InfiLaw schools, et al.)\nIn terms of influencing my thoughts, I'm not sure what lessons you think I should draw from Golden Gate's recent bar passage results, but feel free to enlighten me.\nLighten up! I don't recall asking you to learn any lessons and I don't care to influence your thoughts.\nI asked a few questions, to see if you had any thoughts.\nIf you want to learn some lessons, you might check out that history, as I suggested, and if you want influence, you might also think about, as you wage your campaign, what the \"safe harbors\" in the ABA standards are all about.\nAnd, you might tone down the condescending attitude. Attacking people who are not disagreeing with you is unseemly, as is ridiculously rephrasing their points into incomprehensible formulations. To return your attitude, glad to see you could finally understand what I was asking!\nI have encountered one Golden Gate Law graduate in practice. Based on interactions with him, I did not believe it was possible that he had graduated from a U.S. law school and passed the law. He is literally the most incompetent person I have encountered in any walk of life. Even better, he is wholly unburdered by self doubt-- he is quite convinced he is the second coming of Clarence Darrow notwithstanding that he actually appears to be borderline illiterate. Of course a dud can slip through even a good screening system at any law school but I googled and he's considered by GGL to be one of their most accomplished graduates. Not a ringing endorsement for the quality of their law school.\nPosted by: DifferentAnon | January 28, 2016 at 10:15 AM\nThe ABA will one day be held responsible for their inaction. Sadly, that day may be further in the future than many of us would like, and a large fraction of the bad actors will be retired. It's always easy to hold a Congressional hearing on why the barn burned down, but not always so easy to bring out the fire engine while the fire is still raging.\nPosted by: Archangel Raguel | January 28, 2016 at 11:49 AM\nFrom ABA Journal, Belief in Bias Can Block Your Success\n\"the assistant dean of bar exam services at San Francisco\u2019s Golden Gate University School of Law, had a real-world experience to share that supports the study\u2019s findings. In 2005, he told the audience, the school was put on ABA probation because of low rates of bar exam passage. After speaking with students, he determined that because the school did not have a good reputation, particularly compared to other Northern California law schools, they often did not expect they would pass the bar on their first try.\n\u201cI tried to counter all the negative identities and switch them to one that was more positive. If someone was at the top of their class, I emphasized that. If someone had a lot of common sense, I emphasized that,\u201d [he] said. When he started, Golden Gate\u2019s bar passage rate was 32 percent. Four years later, [he] said, it reached 77 percent.\"\nIn 2005 ... before the \"crisis\" ... ABA probation! And, do you believe the reason given here for the abysmal bar pass rate and snap recovery? (the self esteem effort alluded to above?) How could such a dramatic shift occur in four years? Self esteem counseling?\nWhat explains the abysmal bar passage numbers now, so soon after this supposed \"recovery\"?\nAs David acknowledges above, the LSAT scores of the admits do not fully explain the present results.\nDavid's comment above reflects a typical consensus, which is striking coming from someone who is attempting to disrupt it.\nHe states: \"my experience has been that the quality of instruction is pretty good and pretty comparable at most law schools.\"\nReally? I've read his bio, and I wonder to what experience he refers. And, I've read his rationales for Golden Gate's abysmal bar passage performance (transfers, the low scores hidden beneath the 25 percentile, etc.). These rationales sound like bogus excuses.\nThese bogus excuses apply to every other law school. The schools are competing in the same state, the students are taking the same bar, etc. Students transfer out of all lower ranked schools. Golden Gate's issue began before the \"crisis\" and, as David acknowledges above, the repeated failure does not correlate that well with LSAT scores alone.\nGiven the nature of the issue, again, can one surmise that faculty culture and poor instruction is the core problem at Golden Gate?\nUntil the ABA is willing to stop the tap dancing and face up to reality, this problem in general will continue. What David misses is that it is professional courtesy that is in the way, not loose standards. Whatever the standards, no one will enforce them as long as folks, even David!, believe that there is no such thing as a poor quality, failing law school.\nWe seem to be talking about two different problems here. You are talking about a school that admitted students with a reasonable capacity for the study of law, and then failed to impart the skills and knowledge to them needed to pass the California bar exam at a rate commensurate with their predictors. This is a Standard 316 issue, where law schools fail to maintain reasonable bar pass rates.\nThe problem I am focused on in this post is the problem of law schools knowingly admitting students who do not have the intellectual capacity to learn the skills and retain and apply the knowledge necessary to earn a J.D. or pass the bar exam. That is an admissions problem that should be dealt with Standard 501. The alternative is to wait four years for the students who shouldn't have been admitted in the first place to flunk the bar, and then discipline the school at that point, but I think that gives law schools too long of a window to exploit unqualified students. And the way Standard 316 is right now, it actually takes a couple of really bad years before a school would be subject to discipline.\nI don't know what the problem(s) is or are at Golden Gate, assuming there are problems. If Golden Gate wanted to hire me as a consultant, I'm sure I could help them identify and fix the problems.\nI agree that some law schools educate marginal students better than others. But without personal knowledge of the situation at Golden Gate I would not make the assumption that poor teaching is the problem.\nFair enough. But, why then make the opposite assumption? (\"my experience has been that the quality of instruction is pretty good and pretty comparable at most law schools.\") That assumption, combined with reference to a consulting gig, is, frankly, troubling.\nI have been reading your posts with great interest, as you have appeared to be a credible, disinterested and objective commenter, willing to stand up to the status quo.\nAs for the link between 501 and 316, I believe you have done this in your next post on this site. The two work hand in hand, obviously (what is the point of speaking of predictors without evaluating the results of the predictions?)\nFinally, if you are to be credible critic of the ABA, you should be VERY familiar with actual case studies, and, IMHO, Golden Gate would be a great place to start. One would think that you would be studying in great detail to determine what went right and what went wrong. If you do so, I hope you will learn the reasons that Golden Gate would have no reason to hire you as a consultant to \"help them identify and fix the problems.\" (You don't seem familiar with the actual facts.)\nMight I suggest that the answer is somewhere in the middle. Considered at a \"national\" level Golden Gate is admitting students that meet Standard 501 - but at a state, California Level that may not be the case, though there may also be failures in their teaching. The CA bar exam, as you say, is tougher than others - something it shares with a few other states - but broadly across all states bar exams are much less difficult.\nSome 24 years ago, when I sat and passed the New York Bar I found it ridiculously easy, and since I was working (I worked most of my way through law school) and at the time had two weeks to prepare (my boss was a lawyer who was also the president of the DC bar who suggested that I should perhaps study to prevent embarassment.) Still I was aware of classmates who rushed to other states after the New York bar to take their infamously easy bar exam - known as a \"safety bar.\" Pennsylvania was the most popular - it was alleged that all one needed was a pulse and a signature.\nIn any event it is hard to escape the fact that there are two aspects to ABA 501 - a school meeting a national standard and also meeting the standard in those legal markets where its graduates tend to end up. Golden Gates graduates mostly stay in CA, that has to be part of the 501 question.\nPosted by: [M][a][c][K] | January 28, 2016 at 08:32 PM\nHere's a clue, folks:\nFrom the ABA journal article quoted above:\nAside from a delusion of grandeur, what could result in such a dramatic change? To be sure, there are ways to game the results. But, if the needle goes back down, like a car running out of gas, when the attention is removed, does that tell us nothing about faculty culture and competence? And, what of the \"predictors\" and the actual results?\nPlease, take a look at the facts, David. You are speaking about ABA action. There is much to learn here.\nThank you for the compliments, and for the suggestions. Unfortunately, with a full-time job as a solo practitioner, a part-time job as an Air Force Reserve JAG, father of two energetic elementary school-aged boys, and with several other writing and public service obligations, and an addiction to playing tennis, I don't always have the time to familiarize myself with every fact about every troubled law school in the country. Nobody pays me to be a critic of law schools or the ABA. I am doing this work as a service to potential law students and to the profession as a whole. I freely admit to being uninformed about Golden Gate's history, but I will look into it when I get a chance. Feel free to send me any information that you think I should be familiar with.",

        "raw_content": "Beef industry concerns about water issues highlight Colorado Cattlemen\u2019s Association conference\nTerry Fankhauser, executive vice president of the Colorado Cattlemen's Association, stood in front of a small room of ranchers, a serious frown dipping under the corners of his gray handlebar moustache. The message he had for the breakout group at the Colorado Cattlemen's Association annual convention was grim.\nWithout water, it's not just farming that fails.\nDuring the Colorado Cattlemen's Association annual convention last week in Colorado Springs, ranchers, business owners and ag officials discussed the ways the state's cattlemen can make a difference in water conservation and why the beef industry needs to have a role in the conversation. Many ranchers grow feed crops for their animals, like hay or grains, rather than purchasing them. Nearly all have to worry about water when it comes to the quality of their pasture and rangeland. Even for those that rely on purchased feed or who graze on federal lands, Fankhauser pointed out that the ag industry is all interconnected.\nFankhauser asked the group: If corn dries up, what will cattle eat? If farmers start to go out of business in an area, feedlots move out, then packing plants move out, Fankhauser said. When ranchers can't keep the water on their land to sustain their pastures, they have to sell off their cattle herd, as they did in the 2012 drought.\n\u201cAg has to be on equal footing with municipal and industrial and environmental concerns. We have to be at the head of the table, not at the end of the table.\u201d\nBill McKee, a rancher who lives in Carbondale but runs cattle in both Carbondale and Platteville, said if the beef industry does nothing else, it needs to make an effort to stop buy-and-dry, a practice in which agricultural land is bought up for its water rights and taken out of production.\nAccording to state projections outlined in the Colorado Water Plan, which was introduced by Gov. John Hickenlooper in November 2015, by 2050, the state will be about 560,000 acre-feet short of the water necessary to sustain its expected population. That's a shortage that's equivalent to three and a half Horsetooth Reservoirs at maximum capacity.\nThe water plan calls for ag water leasing to help make up a portion of that shortfall.\nThrough water leasing, farmers would maintain ownership of their water, but only use a portion of it and be paid for the rest, which would be used by someone else, like a municipality.\n\"There is no question that more buy and dry is going to happen, but the idea of leasing is to minimize that,\" Fankhauser said.\nThere are a few different ways this could look, but according to a survey done by the Ag Water NetWORK, an organization formed by the Colorado Cattlemen's Association and the Partners for Western Conservation, the most popular of them is for a certain portion of water to be leased, then the producer would receive reduced delivery of water over the rest of the season. About two-thirds of the respondents to the survey expressed some sort of interest in leasing their water.\nFankhauser said the point of water leasing is to give farmers an alternative option to selling their water rights while still addressing the water issues in the state.\nT. Wright Dickinson, former president of the Colorado Cattlemen's Association who serves on the state's Inter-basin Compact Committee, said ag water leasing is only part of the solution. Continued development of the reservoir storage system is necessary, too, but ranchers need to realize their role and the opportunities they have to manage their water in a way that protects ag's viability.\n\"If we do it right, conservation goes a long way into solving some of this gap,\" said Dickinson, a Moffat County rancher. \"If we do it wrong, the state won't look the same.\"\nAt the convention, Carbondale and Platteville rancher McKee talked with representatives from conservation group Trout Unlimited, which works with farmers and ranchers on water management to benefit fish populations. He was looking into options to better handle water on his property, something he said he needs to do soon, because changes are coming to Colorado, and they're coming faster than anyone is prepared for.\n\"It's time to have an intelligent discussion,\" he said. \"Everybody should be looking at these issues.\"\nStephanie Scott, outreach coordinator with Trout Unlimited, said she sees the conversation around water and other natural resource issues changing in the ag community every time she attends a convention like the Colorado Cattlemen's Association's. At first, ranchers hesitate when they see the Trout Unlimited booth. It's nestled next to the trade show mainstays, like merchandise, livestock products and ag tech. Scott said she can see the questions in their eyes \u2014 the ones they're afraid to ask a conservation organization.\nTrout Unlimited want to help them better manage their water because it helps both the farmer and the organization accomplish their goals, Scott said. Once farmers and ranchers realize that, the conversation about conservation really gets going.\nAnd as population grows and the pressure on water mounts, more people in the ag community \u2014 the whole ag community, not just traditional crop growers \u2014 are willing to try new things, Scott said.\nSince the governor's water plan is new and fresh on the minds of legislators, McKee said now is the time for ag to have a bigger part in water conversations.\n\"Ag has to be on equal footing with municipal and industrial and environmental concerns,\" he said. \"We have to be at the head of the table, not at the end of the table.\" \u2756",

Darwin once came second in an election for a seat in the US House of Representatives.\nI never knew that. When did this happen? Last week.\nBut he's dead! He wasn't alone there. A dead man was elected to the Texas senate last Tuesday. Another dead guy was voted city council president of Rochester, Minnesota, and yet another won a seat on a county commission in Alabama.\nOK \u2013 but he's not even an American citizen. He wasn't on the ballot either. Nevertheless, Charles Darwin received more than 4,000 write-in votes in Athens-Clark County, Georgia. The numbers from the other 24 counties in the 10th congressional district were not available at the time of writing.\nCould he still win? It's unlikely. The incumbent, Republican Paul Broun, received more than 209,000 votes.\nAnd the Democrat? Broun was running unopposed. The write-in campaign was sort of a protest.\nBut why Darwin? It has to do with a speech Broun gave to a church group in September in which he denounced both evolution and the big bang theory, as \"lies straight from the pit of hell\".\nSo he credits Satan with the theory of natural selection? He also said he believed the Earth is 9,000 years old, and was created in six literal days.\nPerhaps his remarks were misinterpreted. There's a video of him saying it, standing in front of a wall of mounted deer heads.\nI've said it before \u2013 that America is one crazy place. It gets worse \u2013 Broun is a qualified doctor, a climate-change denier and a member of the House committee on science, space and technology.\nDo say: \"It's shameful that in this day and age such a politician even exists.\"\nDon't say: \"Poor show, Darwin.

        "raw_content": "12 Common Money Mistakes New College Graduates Make\nCareers Education Getting Started\nLife after college graduation can be an overwhelming experience. Your whole world is changing. You may be both thrilled and sad to be done with your college days, excited for the new beginning, and nervous about what the future holds.\nCollege may have been the first time you were somewhat on your own financially. But now it\u2019s a whole new ball game as a young adult. Now you\u2019re repaying those student loans you took out, hopefully managing a full-time income, and navigating a life that\u2019s far different from your dorm days.\nBefore you sign the lease for that apartment with the breathtaking view or opt for expensive new shoes instead of putting some money in your savings account, check out these common money mistakes new grads make.\n1. Not Taking Full Advantage of Your Grace Period\nIf you\u2019re like 71% of college graduates, you left school with student loan debt. And chances are, when you graduated, your lender granted you a grace period. This is simply a designated period of time, usually around six months, where you aren\u2019t required to make any payments on your student loan debt.\nUnfortunately, a big mistake a lot of graduates make is ignoring these loans until you start getting a bill for them once repayment kicks in. But using that grace period to your advantage can put you in a much better position.\nFirst, get in the habit of \u201cmaking payments\u201d on your loan. If your total loan repayment is going to be $300 per month, put that $300 each month in a savings account. At the end of the grace period, you\u2019ll have the start of a nice emergency fund with $1,800. Plus, you\u2019ll be used to paying that every month and already have a budget established with that payment built into it.\nSecond, take this grace period to figure out your plan of attack on the loans. If you are going to have trouble making payments based on your current income, now is the time to explore your options. You may qualify for income-based repayment options or, if you\u2019re struggling to find work or make ends meet, an economic hardship deferment.\n2. Failing to Make a Student Loan Game Plan\nEven if your grace period is over, it\u2019s not too late to formulate a strategy for dealing with your student loans. If you don\u2019t handle this debt correctly, it can have a serious impact on your financial future.\nThe average graduate has $40,000 in student loan debt, but 19% of borrowers owe $50,000 or more. That\u2019s too much to ignore.\nDetermine exactly what you owe. Write down what the interest rate is for each loan. Depending on the size and terms of your other loans, it might be worth making extra payments on the loan with the highest interest rate.\nYou\u2019ll also want to learn what the terms are for these loans. Do any of them qualify for student loan forgiveness? Which of these loans qualify for an income-based repayment plan?\nSome loans offer a slight interest rate deduction if you sign up for automatic debit. This will not only ensure you don\u2019t miss a payment, endangering your credit score \u2014 it can save you hundreds of dollars in the long run.\n3. Not Exploring Loan Forgiveness\nOne big mistake many college graduates make is not considering any of their student loan forgiveness options. If you\u2019re not familiar with student loan forgiveness, it\u2019s an opportunity to get your loans partially or even completely forgiven \u2014 you won\u2019t have to pay for them.\nWhile there are different types of programs and loan eligibility varies between them, there are plenty of options. You can receive loan forgiveness for volunteering, for choosing a job in a certain field or location, for serving in the military, or even for moving to a specific location.\n4. Living Without a Budget\nOnly one in three Americans budget, according to a Gallup poll. It might have been difficult to budget in college since you probably didn\u2019t have much money to work with. If you\u2019ve landed a job, it may be tempting to indulge in all the things you couldn\u2019t during college and finally just be able to spend whatever you want, whenever you want.\nHowever, a budget is essential to stay on track financially. A budget can help you pay down your debts, keep you from overspending on unnecessary purchases, and help you start growing your savings account instead of adding to your debt.\n5. Not Getting Health Insurance\nYour post-college life will likely be a big transition, and you may be forced to think about things you\u2019ve never had to deal with before \u2014 including health insurance.\nYou may have been covered on your parent\u2019s plan or had student coverage through your school. If your employer doesn\u2019t offer health insurance or you are still looking for a job, it\u2019s up to you to enroll in a health insurance policy or make sure you\u2019re still covered under your parents\u2019 plan.\nGratefully, part of the Affordable Care Act requires insurance companies to extend coverage for adult children up to age 26. However, once you\u2019re no longer considered a student, you or your parents should still contact the insurance company to ensure your coverage continues. Don\u2019t assume you\u2019re covered.\nNo one anticipates the worst happening, but unfortunately it does, no matter how young and healthy you are or how well you live. FacetheFacts.org estimates that the average hospital stay costs $33,079. Medical debt is the number one reason Americans file for bankruptcy. So find a plan that works for you, and protect yourself.\nThirty-six percent of college graduates admit to not setting money aside for savings on a regular basis, according to a Capital One survey. Not saving is a bad choice at any age, but making a habit of it when you\u2019re young can really set you back.\nStart saving whatever you can every month. If you\u2019re having trouble with it, you can find ways to force yourself to save \u2014 try using technology to help you save or ask your employer to automatically deposit a portion of your paycheck to savings.\n7. Not Contributing to a 401(k) or Retirement Fund\nSaving for an emergency fund is important as well as whatever else you\u2019re saving for \u2013 a down payment for a home, a trip, or whatever else. But one item that new grads definitely don\u2019t save for enough is retirement.\nIn fact, 51% of millennials aren\u2019t saving for retirement, according to a survey by Wells Fargo.\nYou just spent four (or more) years busting your butt to get a degree to get a job. It\u2019s perfectly natural if retirement is the last thing on your mind. But while that may be (or seem to be) a long time away, the more you save now, the longer that money will have to compound and grow, and the better off you\u2019ll be down the line.\nIf your employer offers a 401(k), take advantage of it \u2014 especially if they\u2019ll match a portion of your contribution. That\u2019s free money for the taking. According to Forbes, 40% of workers are offered some type of 401(k) match.\nNot only are millennials not saving, but according to a study by Moody\u2019s Analytics, their savings rate is actually \u20132%, which means they\u2019re spending more than they have.\nI get it. Now that college is over, you\u2019d like to put your ramen-noodles-and-cheap-beer lifestyle behind you as well. Plus, with many college graduates moving back home (an astounding 85%), and less pressure to get married or buy a house as there once was, you might get the sense that you don\u2019t need to take overspending too seriously right now.\nThe truth is, 18% of college graduates are underemployed, which means they are overqualified for their jobs, according to the Economic Policy Institute. And 41% say they are graduating into a job that doesn\u2019t even require a college degree. So while you\u2019re full-time salary probably puts that of your work-study job to shame, it\u2019s still probably not enough to be splurging on every whim.\nThe best way not to overspend is to continue to live within or below your means and stick to a budget. Embrace some of the cheap habits you developed in college. You might be tempted to rent a pricey apartment since, chances are, your college one wasn\u2019t too great. But stick to something you can afford, and consider living with a trusted roommate or two to help split rent, utilities, and other costs.\nNow that you\u2019re paying for everything on your own, learn to differentiate between your needs and wants: You need to pay for food, and rent, and gas; you likely don\u2019t need cable, or a gym membership, or that new pair of jeans. See if anything on your want list is breaking your budget each month, and try cutting it out until you\u2019re earning enough (or saving enough elsewhere) to afford it.\n9. Using Credit Cards to Fund an Expensive Lifestyle\nWith overspending often comes the use of credit cards.\nThe average college graduate leave school with $3,000 in credit card debt. But it\u2019s easy to let that number inflate exponentially if you\u2019re turning to credit cards to fund a lifestyle you might not be able to afford quite yet.\nDon\u2019t abuse your credit cards. If you want to purchase something, save up until you have the cash for it.\n10. Avoiding Credit\nWhile some graduates have a problem staying away from their credit cards, on the other end of the spectrum are those who can\u2019t get far enough away from it.\nMany young adults have the perception that credit cards are bad. They can be, if you abuse them, but it\u2019s important to build credit. Having a healthy credit history and solid credit score can help you eventually get a loan for a mortgage or a car, and even impact whether you\u2019re able to rent an apartment.\nIf you\u2019re trying to build credit but want to avoid taking on debt, simply make it a point to pay your credit card balance off in full every month.\nLike with most things in life, there is a balance. Credit cards can be good if you are using them to purchase things securely with fraud protection, getting perks such as cash back rewards, and then paying off the balance in full. Plus, making payments on time and having a good debt-to-credit ratio will increase your credit score. However, when you are not paying the balance in full, the items you purchase end up costing you much more than the amount you paid, once interest gets tacked on. If you\u2019re maxing out your cards or struggling to make payments, your credit score will suffer; so use them responsibly.\n11. Taking on More \u2018Big Debt\u2019\nOn the traditional road map of life, you may find you have some big decisions to make soon after you graduate, many of which come with a hefty price tag.\nIf you\u2019re considering graduate school, you might be looking at adding another $30,000 to your student loan debt, or even more (upwards of $200,000-$300,000 for law or medical school, for example).\nMarriage can add to your debt, with the average wedding costing about $28,000. Round out the list with a car loan and a mortgage, and you\u2019ve just built yourself a massive mountain of debt just as you\u2019re starting out in life.\nBefore you take on all of these big debts, consider other options. Instead of taking out a loan for your wedding or charging it on credit cards, consider scaling things down a notch or postponing it until you can save up for the wedding you want. Do you really need a brand new car, or could you get another year or two out of your old one or buy a smaller used model for half the price?\nAn advanced degree can definitely help your career, and may even be required for what you want to do in life. But is it required right now? If you\u2019re nervous about adding to your already enormous student loan debt, explore other options, such as gaining work experience for a few years to pay down existing debt while saving up for your advanced degree. While it\u2019s easier said than done, consider finding a job that offers tuition reimbursement toward your graduate education. Also look into post-graduate scholarships, or consider working and going to school part-time to offset the cost of grad school.\n12. Getting Rid of That Student ID Card\nAfter graduation, your old student ID may not open doors to campus buildings or work in the vending machines anymore, but it\u2019s not just a piece of collegiate memorabilia, either.\nYou can keep using your old ID to get student discounts at least until the end of the calendar year on everything from subway passes and airfare to museum tickets and Alex & Ani jewelry. And if there\u2019s no date on the card, you may be able to continue scoring deals for as long as you look young enough to be in college.",

        "raw_content": "Home Reviews Short films Roller Coaster (2008)\nThe 2008 German short film Roller Coaster (original title: H\u00f6llenritt) offers an intriguing and original way to portray Coming-of-Age experiences.\nNarrated in the first-person by Jacob (Aaron Altaras), its twelve-year-old protagonist, and shot entirely from his perspective, the film offers an insightful examination of the mindset of a young boy and the evolving relationship between him and his father. The father has left the family and now lives with another \u201cdaemon\u201d.\u2026. sorry woman (but still a daemon in Jacob\u2019s eyes).\nDisappointed, Jacob applies to join ADAAC (\u201call dads are assholes club\u201d) founded by his friends, Timo and Daniel, whose fathers also left and now see them only on weekends. The goal of the club\u2019s membership is to scorn and annoy the dads so much on the weekend rendezvous with their sons that they will eventually give up on pretending to be nice and caring and reveal their true selves. It\u2019s now up for Jacob to prove that he is worthy of becoming a member of the club. He gets a first opportunity to do so when his dad comes to pick him up for their first weekend together.\nAaron Altaras as Jacob in Roller Coaster\nRoller Coaster offers a distinct viewing experience mostly because of the way its story is told \u2014 combining humor, fantasy and perceptive observations and startling claims about the world of its young protagonist. The narrative successfully deals with themes related to Jacob\u2019s maturation process with scenes and situations that provide bizarre comic relief while, at the same time, addressing the serious side of coping with change and disappointment.\nAt 12 years of age, the world may appear bizarre (sometimes this never changes \u2013 but do not despair) and the film\u2019s director, Martin Busker, has managed to truthfully portray the inner world of young Jacob, so much so that the viewer will inevitably identify and care for the boy. At 30 minutes, the film\u2019s length is slightly longer than for a typical short film, but Roller Coaster features an abundance of dramatic and visual surprises, making the time fly by.\n30 min|Short, Comedy, Drama|30 May 2008\nA boys first weekend with the father after the divorce of his parents.

        "raw_content": "Home Reviews The Strange Ones (2017)\nA few years ago (2011), I stumbled upon a short film with a peculiar title, The Strange Ones (Deux inconnus). It piqued my interest (as mentioned in that review published on this site), but unfortunately it\u2019s 14 minutes failed to engage. Converted into a full feature film in 2017, the extended time for the story and for character development made a huge difference.\nThe central premise remains the same: a young man and boy make their way across rural America. They encounter various characters and, through their interaction with them and each other, the viewer gets small snippets of information hinting that not everything is what it appears to be at first glance.\nJames Freedson-Jackson and Alex Pettyfer in The Strange Ones (2017)\nWhile the action develops at a rather slow pace, the storytelling results in a viewing experience similar to that of solving a puzzle, relying on clues to construct the characters\u2019 backgrounds and understand the motives behind their actions and behavior. The extended time provided in the full length version allows for the complexity of both story and characters to be fully realized which, unlike with the short film format, engages the viewer to a much greater extent.\nThe resulting intriguing mix of drama, thriller, and mystery includes significant Coming-of-Age overtones, thanks primarily to the stellar performance of actor James Freedson Jackson in the role of the young teenage boy \u2014 who is essentially the main protagonist of the film. His excellent performance was authentic in the 2015 American movie Cop Car, but the plot complexity of The Strange Ones allowed him to fully extend his potential. As a result, his character appears quietly vulnerable, yet determined when the need arises.\nThe Strange Ones Trailer\nAside from the acting, the lack of definite judgments and the fact that the story and characters remain ambiguous enough to offer the viewer room for interpretations and personal reflection, contributing greatly to the overall appeal of the movie. This is evident even if, at the ending (the real one happened some moments before the one at the end of the film \u2014 at least according to me) the directors went ahead and offered an alternative finale \u2014 avoiding clich\u00e9s and stereotypes as far as the narrative is concerned.\nThe cinematography, which is dream-like, features some stunning lingering shots of nature, the main characters and the environment, which gives the film its unique visual atmosphere, further enhanced by the frequent usage of reappearing visual motifs.\nUnlike the short feature on which the film is based, Christopher Radcliff and Lauren Wolkstein turned their full feature into an engaging film with the right dose of controversy and ambiguity. Offering a challenging enigma, it\u2019s well worth your time. The Strange Ones (2017) earns a high recommendation from me.\n81 min|Drama, Thriller|05 Jan 2018\nCreator: Christopher Radcliff (story), Christopher Radcliff, Lauren Wolkstein (story)\nActors: Alex Pettyfer, James Freedson-Jackson, Emily Althaus, Gene Jones\nJohn Jon Johnson Feb 10, 2019 at 3:38 PM\nThis movie lifts its premise from the Alex King story, which is a bit of a spoiler so I suggest you look it up after you\u2019ve seen the film. I was clued in by an IMDB review. I think the film also offers an experience that goes beyond the Alex King story, so if you know it already you will still enjoy the film.\nI concur with Georgi on the ending. The unofficial ending involves an event that is inadequately handled in the last part of the film. Instead of seeing the consequences of the event, the film jumps back (forward?) to a location the audience has already seen. Is it a flashback? If so, the final image is even more enigmatic, suggesting the boy has disappeared twice. Has he instead returned to that location after the event? Then its a jump cut so massive it feels like a first time director\u2019s mistake. Another possibility is that the second ending is the result of (a) cutting stuff to keep the mysterious tone of the film, then (b) being convinced by a producer to put it all back in to explain it to Mr. Joe Average. Or, and I\u2019ll stop here, the event in question may have been introduced as a way of moving around some exposition after the film had been shot and edited. The premature ending could have been shot to solve an editing problem.\nBut it doesn\u2019t matter. The doubled ending works. I prefer the poetic simplicity of the first ending, but love the final image. It feels all the more strange because the audience can no longer be sure where the scene belongs in the world of the film. Would not want to do without it.\nThis is an important film.\nArthur G.

I am at the top of a 1,696ft peak, the site of an Iron Age hillfort, in a national park. It marks the start of an ancient 48-mile trackway whose course I shall be exploring. You have to admire the sheer brutality of this landscape. The Edge, a scarp five miles to my northwest, looks as if land and life have slipped over it. Even the railways struggled to tame the area. Two miles to my west is a 3,702yd tunnel, hewn 900ft beneath the surface.\nTrue, all about me is jaw-dropping beauty, but there\u2019s a sinisterness that makes me feel uneasy.

        "raw_content": "Everyone knows that I hate hiking. I like the idea of it and am excited about the hike at first, but start to get tired 30 minutes into it. Most of the time, I can\u2019t make it up any further as I am too winded. It\u2019s a miracle that I made it to the top of Mount Batur as it was the most brutal hike I have ever encountered. With the help of my fellow retreaters and my hiking tour guide, I was able to make this incredible hike.\nMount Batur sign - Highest point Elevation 1,717 m (5,633 ft)\nAt first, I wasn\u2019t even thinking about doing this hike, but when our yoga teacher, Emily, mentioned doing yoga on top of the mountain, I thought that would be a unique experience, so I decided to join.\nThe day started at 3am. We all met in the resort lobby and headed to the buses that took us to the start of Mount Batur. We arrived at 4:30am and met our tour guides. There were 3 of them taking care of 12 of us and we were each handed a flashlight as we had to hike in the dark.\nMany hikers conquering Mount Batur\nThe first 30 minutes of the hike was pretty easy with not much incline. I was thinking to myself, \u201cThis is going to be a breeze! Glad I decided to do this\". Then the hike started getting steeper and my heart started pounding harder and I was running out of breath. I didn't think it would get much worse than that, but when we got to the halfway point, I got a glimpse of what I was hiking up to and now was thinking, \u201cHoly crap. What did I get myself into? There\u2019s no way I can do this.\u201d\nI was starting to fall back and couldn\u2019t keep up with the group, but luckily, I had an awesome tour guide, Nyoman, who stayed behind with me. He was so sweet and encouraged me every step of the way. He already had a backpack himself, but offered to carry my backpack for me when he saw that I was starting to lose hope of conquering this mountain. With Nyoman\u2019s encouragement and help, I was able to continue with the hike.\nThe struggle was real\nThe hike got a lot worse after the halfway point. Since the mountain is an active volcano, there are large chunks of rocks everywhere and you have to lift your legs over these huge rocks, which isn\u2019t an easy thing when you\u2019ve already hiked for an hour. I fell several times as I stepped onto loose rocks and lost my footing, but I kept going.\nStop points along the way to the summit\nAn hour and a half into it, we were getting close to the top. We passed by several stop points where hikers settled to view the sunrise, but our group kept on going to the summit. I highly considered stopping at these points too, but I couldn\u2019t let Nyoman down. Not that he would judge me, but he was so helpful getting me through this AND carrying double the weight he normally carries, so I pushed through.\nIncredible views On top of Mount Batur\nSo happy I was able to catch the sunrise on top of Mount Batur\nThe last 30 minutes of the hike was a little scary since you had to hike through loose dirt and there were people slipping left and right. When we finally reached the summit, the view was insanely gorgeous. We were literally on top of the clouds and the sun was just starting to peak above the mountains. I wanted to cry because it was such a beautiful moment and I made such a huge accomplishment for myself. I would have never challenged myself to do this without the ladies and Nyoman. I am forever thankful for them challenging me and helping me through this journey.\nMy awesome tour guide, Nyoman. Could not have done this hike without him.\nWe weren\u2019t able to do yoga like we had planned as it was pretty crowded and also very cold, but I think we were all okay with that. We were all so proud of ourselves for getting to the top of Mount Batur. After we took in all the views, we started heading back down. The way back down was much easier, thank goodness!\nMy fellow retreaters who all made it on top of Mount Batur\nThe scenery was gorgeous on the way back down. Since we weren\u2019t able to see our surroundings on the way up, we were amazed at how beautiful everything was around us. We stopped several times to take pictures, talk to fellow hikers and do some yoga poses.\nGoing down Mount Batur was a bit tricky too as you had to get your grip on the loose dirt\nSo proud we conquered Mount Batur\nTaking in the beautiful scenery around Mount Batur\nAfter we made it back, we stopped by Batur Natural Hot Springs. A true oasis and just what we needed after that brutal hike. The hot springs had an amazing view overlooking Lake Batur. There were also fun decorations of elephants everywhere with some of them sprouting warm water from their trunks.\nAs soon as we dipped into the warm water, we were in heaven. It felt so good on our tired and sore muscles. We ordered drinks and food by the poolside and just relaxed and had some girl talk the rest of the time. Everything was perfect and we felt incredibly lucky to be in this moment.\nA great time relaxing in the hot springs after a grueling morning of hiking\nWe loved our time at Batur Natural Hot Springs, but one thing to note is that the food and drinks were a bit expensive; especially compared to what we were paying near our resort. Everything seemed to be double the price here.\nExpensive drinks at Batur Natural Hot Springs but very tasty strawberry mojito\nAll in all, it was an amazing day and I am so grateful to my new friends and tour guide that inspired me to do this hike. I would have never done this without their encouragement and I am so glad I was able to experience the beauty and that feeling of accomplishment at the top of Mount Batur.\nBali, Indonesia, Mount Batur, hiking, sunrise",

        "raw_content": "Intro | Court History | Deciding the Future | Biographies of the Robes | Landmark Cases | Primary Sources\nPortrait of Samuel Anthony Alito, Jr.\nSamuel Anthony Alito, Jr.\nb. April 1, 1950, Trenton, NJ\nThe son of Italian-American parents, Samuel Alito attended high school in Hamilton, New Jersey. He went on to Princeton, where he graduated from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs with a A.B. in 1972. He subsequently attended Yale Law School, where he was an editor on the YALE LAW JOURNAL and earned his degree in 1975. In 1971, while still at Princeton, Alito led a student conference on the \"Boundaries of Privacy in American Society\" that advocated broad application of the Bill of Rights and opposed domestic spying.\nAfter graduating from Yale, Alito clerked for a federal judge for one year and then became an assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, a position he held from 1977 to 1981. In 1981, after Ronald Reagan was elected president, Alito became assistant to the U.S. Solicitor General, serving until 1985, when he was appointed a deputy assistant attorney general. In 1987 he became U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, a position he held until 1990 when he was appointed to the U.S. Court of Appeals, Third Circuit.\nIn the fall of 2005, Alito was nominated by President George W. Bush to fill the seat on the Supreme Court vacated by Sandra Day O'Connor's retirement. The appointment met with hostility among liberal groups, who thought he was too conservative to replace the centrist O'Connor. An attempt by Democrats to filibuster the nomination failed, and Alito was sworn in on January 31, 2006.\nAmong friends Alito is known as quiet and mild mannered, with an ironic sense of humor. Even those who disagree with his views respect him for his integrity. Alito's opinions while on the Court of Appeals were notable for their intellectual rigor and, while they did not articulate any sweeping views, they were strongly conservative in spirit. In particular, he dissented from a majority opinion and supported a Pennsylvania law requiring women to consult their husbands before having abortions. In a gun control case he wrote a dissent arguing that private citizens have the right to own submachine guns. In criminal law he is known to believe in narrowing the rights of criminal defendants.",

        "raw_content": "Nowadays, it's good to gamble\nThe National Lottery and its Regulation\nDespite falling ticket sales, the National Lottery is still one of the most popular products in the UK, with ticket sales worth \u00a34.85 billion a year. In the wake of the government's March 2002 white paper on gambling, the UK is about to experience mass gambling deregulation. The lottery has played its part by making gambling socially acceptable to the general public. It has also destigmatised gambling and made it no longer a solely masculine preserve.\nThe National Lottery is the largest consumer product ever launched in the UK. Uniquely, it is the first modern lottery that is both national and privately run (a logical extension of Tory economic philosophy of involvement of the private sector in the management of the economy).\nBecause it is a state-sponsored lottery set up to serve the public interest and run by a private monopoly (Camelot), there is no precedent anywhere else in the world in terms of a regulatory model.\nWith this unprecedented situation forming the backdrop, Andrew Douglas's book proceeds by drawing material from a wide range of differing sources: scholarly journals, books, government reports, newspaper articles and interviews. Such diversity is the book's strength and its weakness. The central concern is how management, in the absence of competition, can be expected to deliver an efficient lottery that serves the public interest.\nDouglas goes into great detail to show that competition in the market was replaced by competition for the market through a competitive tendering process.\nThe book divides roughly into four parts spread over seven chapters.\nBeginning with the background to the lottery, its regulatory design and the criteria by which the regulation can be measured, the book then goes on to assess the lottery and its regulation against the three main objectives set out in the 1993 National Lottery Etc. Act - to ensure propriety, to protect players and to maximise proceeds for good causes). The book's third section appraises the lottery's regulatory design with a particular focus on how the commission-based system replaced the personalised regulatory model.\nFinally, Douglas appraises the new bidding process and the commission-based system that is now in place.\nOne of the book's central propositions is that many of the lottery's regulatory problems have arisen because the regulatory system has been more discretionary, and therefore more personalised. Douglas argues that the more a position requires the use of discretion, the more it requires a single mind.\nAnother theme of the book concerns the natural conflict of interest between the lottery's objectives concerning maximising proceeds and protecting players. Here, Douglas highlights the classic dichotomy of \"promotion versus regulation\" and considers the inherent problems that can arise.\nOverall, the book is an interesting read, although the 50 pages of copious footnotes may spoil the flow for some readers and there are a number of omissions, mistakes and misleading statements despite the meticulous referencing. The large section on \"player protection\" is perhaps the weakest in this respect. Here, Douglas is very selective in his overview of adolescent lottery gambling (omitting key studies). He also describes incorrectly psychological processes such as operant conditioning, and he provides incorrect or misleading information about at least three gambling charities. He gives equal voice to organisations run by one person in their spare time (for example, the National Council on Gambling) as opposed to care providers that run national services (such as GamCare).\nIt is hard to assess who will want to buy this book, and Douglas himself gives no hints as to the possible readership. My guess is that the appeal will be limited, most probably to those interested in the social policy of gambling.\nOverall, Douglas should perhaps keep to his areas of expertise. Cracks begin to show particularly when he tries to write about psychological research or voluntary-sector services. However, most of the book is well written and researched and deserves to be read by any academic with even a passing interest in gambling.\nMark Griffiths is professor of gambling studies, Nottingham Trent University.\nThe National Lottery and its Regulation: Process, Problems and Personalities\nAuthor - Andrew Douglas\nISBN - 0 8264 5554 9 and 5555 7\nPublisher - Continuum\nEurope launches continent-wide recruitment fair for economists\nJust Giving: Why Philanthropy is Failing Democracy and How It Can Do Better, by Rob Reich",

        "raw_content": "Sleeping with baby may make sense\nMedicine and mountains: both are benefiting from anthropology studies\nINFRA-RED cameras installed in the bedrooms of families in north-east England could shed light on modern sleeping behaviour and determine whether or not it is safer for a baby to sleep alone or with its parents.\nThe American anthropologist James McKenna has argued that continuous mother-infant contact is vital to the well-being of babies, and that this contact is particularly important during the night. He suggests that co-sleeping arrangements might protect babies against cot death or sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).\nIn non-western cultures, newborn infants commonly sleep with their mothers. Intricate physiological and behavioural relationships have been demonstrated to exist between mother and infant co-sleeping pairs which could be protective to the child. But the theory is controversial and as much evidence exists supporting the opposite view, that those infants sharing a bed with their parents may be more at risk of SIDS.\nAnthropologists in Durham are filming parents and babies who do sleep together at night to learn more about the practice and its implications. Forty families are taking part in the research.\nHelen Ball, who is leading the project from Durham University, says the study was comparing the impact on infants of sleeping with their mothers only, compared to sleeping with both parents. Although both arrangements constitute minority behaviours, the latter is more common.\n\"Throughout our evolutionary history humans were never left alone to sleep,\" Dr Ball says. \"It is only very recently, in Victorian times, that babies began to sleep in their own beds, often in their own rooms, and that this rapidly became part of modern culture.\"\nBut the western idea of the infant as an independent entity may be out of touch with evolution. In the vast majority of cultures, Dr Ball says, babies sleep with their mothers and there is evidence that the child's and parent's physiological behaviour becomes synchronised in the night. Heart beat, breathing rates, body temperature and brain waves seem to be closely influenced by the mother, all factors that could have a protective effect for the child.\nDr Ball's hypothesis is that the presence of the father in the bed will influence the pattern of mother-infant interactions during the night. \"One might predict that the presence of the father means the baby is doubly monitored by both parents during the night,\" she says. \"Alternatively, the baby could experience less monitoring if the both father and mother assume that the other parent is paying attention.\" Dr Ball has discovered, through her research, that none of the new parents studied had, before the birth, anticipated co-sleeping with their babies. However, at the post-natal interviews more than two-thirds were at least occasionally co-sleeping. It was found that all breast-feeding babies co-slept with their parents.\nThe videos made during the research, funded by the Nuffield Foundation, are being analysed to explore sleeping positions, the orientation of the baby and proximity to parents. The researchers will monitor the frequency and duration of parent-infant interactions, the sequencing of feeding, soothing and position change. If the research shows that children who sleep with their parents have a better chance of surviving to adulthood, the finding could slot neatly into other evolutionary theories.\nCaroline Ross, a biological an-thropologist from the Roehampton Institute, says: \"The behaviour mechanisms that have developed in western societies may be unnatural in an evolutionary context.\"",

It\u2019s an opportunity to celebrate patriotism with fireworks and parades.\nBut it can also be an opportunity to show your appreciation for the brave servicemen and -women who protect our freedoms. The Purple Heart Foundation is sharing Brendan Looney\u2019s story to remember the brave sacrifice he made for this country.\nBrendan Looney was the oldest of six siblings, always looking out for his younger brothers and sisters. Family was extremely important to him. A natural leader, his ability to lead translated over to his passion while growing up, sports. Football and baseball were Brendan\u2019s favorites, but after seeing his younger brothers play lacrosse, he decided to take it up during his college years at the U. S. Naval Academy. Brendan played on Navy\u2019s nationally ranked team, and they went to the NCAA National Championship.\nBrendan went to Navy because he wanted to play D1 football. To do that he had to get a waiver due to color blindness. He started at Naval Academy Prep School and continued to the Academy. In the fall of 2001 Brendan had just begun his sophomore year at the Naval Academy, when the horrific terrorist attacks on 9/11 pushed him to want and be more. Brendan graduated from the Naval Academy and was commissioned as an Ensign. He began his naval career as an intelligence officer. Brendan\u2019s first deployment was to Korea and then Iraq. Upon his return he wanted to make a change, and went on to join the Navy SEALS.\nBrendan earned a spot to attend Basic Underwater Demolition/Seal training, BUD/S. BUD/S is considered the most demanding and grueling military training. Each training class starts with close to 300 men, and on average 10 men make it all the way through to graduation. Brendan graduated from BUD/S in June 2008 and was bestowed with the highest honor a BUD/S graduate can receive, being named \u201cHonor Man.\u201d Brendan was assigned to SEAL Team 3.\u201d\nShortly after Brendan earned his Seal Trident, he married the love of his life. Just two days after the wedding, Brendan was deployed to Iraq.

Hyundai looks to change all of that with its own dedicated hybrid hatchback. The big news is that the model, dubbed Ioniq, also feature an all-electric drivetrain as in addition to the more familiar hybrid and plug-in hybrid setups you get with the Prius. As for the name, the company says it references \"elements of its creation.\" An ion is an electrically-charged atom, linking to the car\u2019s \"clever combination of electrified powertrains,\" while the second part of the name references it unique place in the Hyundai lineup. Finally, the \"Q\" is depicted in the vehicle\u2019s logo \"as a visual breakthrough, acknowledging the fresh new approach of this advanced, low-emission model.\"\nGranted, the Ioniq comes with a lot of fancy words, but the new nameplate does have at least one thing to brag about: it\u2019s the first production car to offer hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric drivetrain in the same exterior package. Having unveiled the Ioniq to local media at its Namyang R&D Center in South Korea, Hyundai displayed the car at both the Geneva Motor Show and New York Auto Show in 2016. Will it have what it takes to give the popular Toyota Prius a run for its money? Find out in the review below.\nContinue reading to learn more about the 2017 Hyundai Ioniq.\nRead the full 2017 Hyundai Ioniq review\n2017 Hyundai Ioniq photos (120) / videos (1)\nLatest Hyundai Ioniq news and reviews:\nElectric vehicles are becoming more and more popular these days, and manufacturers are responding by pouring in the investment and releasing oodles of new models. As such, competition between EV\u2019s is growing, and 2018 was no exception. But the question is, which of these machines is the \u201cbest\u201d? To find out, we lined up the usual suspects up and looked at all the critical specs, including range-per-charge, battery capacity, charge times, interior space, interior tech, and more. Read on to see which EV came out on top!\n2018 Hyundai Ioniq SEMA Ultimate Street Car\nThis is not your typical electric Hyundai\nThe Hyundai Ioniq Electric may not look like a race car, but leave it to Hyundai to create something out of seemingly nothing with the Ioniq Electric 2018 Ultimate Street Car. Developed to defend its 2017 title in the GTE class of the Optima Ultimate Street Car series, this one-off Ioniq Electric isn\u2019t for the faint of heart. It looks the part of a race car. It\u2019s fitted with a number of racing components. Most importantly, it\u2019s the recipient of an electric motor transplant from the Hyundai Kona, giving it the juice to compete against the likes of Chevrolet Bolt EV and the Tesla Model S P100D. The Hyundai Ioniq Electric is scheduled to compete in the last two races of the 2018 Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational.\nHyundai Gives Us A First Look At Two Of Its SEMA-Bound Projects\nThe Hyundai Ioniq Electric and Veloster N will compete in Optima Batteries\u2019 \"2018 Search for the Ultimate Street Car\"\nWith the 2018 SEMA Auto Show a month away, Hyundai is getting the anticipation started by unveiling modified versions of the Veloster N and the Ioniq Electric sedan. Hyundai created the two one-off models not only to showcase their aftermarket potential but to compete in Optima Batteries\u2019 2018 Search for the Ultimate Street Car. The Ioniq Electric will defend its 2017 National Championship in the GTE class while the Veloster N will compete in the top GTC class. Both cars will compete in the last two Ultimate Street Car events as part of Hyundai\u2019s plan to use the two vehicles to \u201ccollect data on multiple tracks across the country to aid in development and validation.\u201d\nAugust 20, 2018 15:00 by Sidd Dhimaan\nFrom hatches to muscles, cars of all shapes and sizes are adopting green technology. Whether autonomous cars will become a reality or not is a different question; electric cars are the future. Even though the \u2018EV\u2019 cars were introduced barely a decade ago, the kind of transformation and innovations we\u2019ve seen in the last couple of years makes the whole thing look like a yesteryear concept. In this article, we\u2019ve listed out the ten most fuel-efficient vehicles.\nBut before that, let\u2019s just put the basic questions to rest once-in-for-all: the difference between EV, Hybrid, and Plug-in Hybrid - an electric vehicle is the one that runs solely on electric power. You don\u2019t have a combustion engine here whatsoever. A hybrid engine is the one where the car will charge its own batteries on the run with the gasoline engine. As for the plug-in hybrids, the car can be plugged into electricity points to charge the batteries. Now that we have clarified the obvious and bored you enough, let\u2019s move on to the heart of the article.\n2017 Hyundai HyperEconiq Ioniq\nThe Korean hybrid just got more aggressive\nIn 2017, Korean brand Hyundai unveiled its highly anticipated competitor for the Toyota Prius. It\u2019s called the Ioniq; it features a sporty design and a premium interior, and a drivetrain that rivals that of the Prius in terms of performance and efficiency. Hyundai also launched an all-electric version, but very soon we may also see a performance-oriented model hit the market. However, the latter may not come from Hyundai, but from tuning company Bisimoto Engineering, which just unveiled a souped-up Ioniq ahead of the 2017 SEMA Show.\nWhile this tuning brand makes a living from developing and selling aftermarket updates for a range of cars, including the Dodge Viper and Porsche 911, it\u2019s quite famous for rolling spectacular concept cars at every SEMA show in recent years. And the U.S.-based brand has made a passion for Hyundai, preparing beefed-up versions of just about every important model made by the Korean company. This year will be the year of the Ioniq, which was turned into an innovative concept that integrates \"the best hypermiling, economy and friction technologies\" for enhanced fuel economy and drivability. Find out more about it below.\nSeptember 26, 2017 10:00 by Lyndon Johnson\nToyota Prius, you\u2019re on notice: The Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid is here, and it\u2019s arguably doing this whole hybrid, fuel-efficient family car thing better than you.\nThe Prius has had this market sewn-up for over a decade now. There\u2019s been competition, but it\u2019s been limited. Considering gasoline has been \u201ccheap\u201d here in the States for most of that time, it\u2019s easy to understand why automakers haven\u2019t been eager to challenge Toyota with a compact hybrid hatchback. After all, compact cars aren\u2019t the hottest-selling things in truck-and-SUV-loving \u2018Merica, so getting folks to pay a little more for a hybrid electric powertrain in a compact car can be a hard sell.\nSo while other compacts like the Ford Focus, Nissan Sentra, Kia Forte, and yes, even Toyota\u2019s own Corolla and Hyundai\u2019s own Elantra fought it out for a piece of a shrinking pie, the Prius more or less had the super-efficient niche all to itself.\nAll three versions of the Prius \u2014 compact Liftback, subcompact \u201cC\u201d, and midsize \u201cV\u201d \u2014 sold 136,632 copies combined in 2016 \u2014 down 48,162 from the year prior. (Toyota didn\u2019t provide a breakdown of individual Prius model sales in its 2016 year-end sales stats.) By comparison, the brand\u2019s Corolla sedan sold 360,483 copies in the same year, and that\u2019s not counting the 17,727 copies of the closely related Corolla (n\u00e9e Scion) iM hatchback. But to show you how much we \u2018Mericans love trucks and cheap gas, Ford sold more gas-guzzling F-Series pickup trucks in 2016 than all of the above combined \u2014 820,799 trucks total.\nInto this fuel-swilling American marketplace steps Hyundai with its first dedicated compact hybrid, the Ioniq, designed specifically to compete with the Prius Liftback. Even with the Prius getting a much-needed total redesign this year, there are things I like better about the Ioniq. First and foremost: its design.\n2016 Hyundai Autonomous Ioniq Concept\nA concept that previews the company\u2019s first autonomous drive vehicle\nThe Hyundai Ioniq was unveiled to the public in early 2016, after a couple of years of speculation and spy shots of camouflaged test cars. Developed to compete against the popular Toyota Prius, the Ioniq sports a modern design that combines the company\u2019s latest styling language with a few unique design features of its own. Available in both hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions at launch, the Ioniq also got an all-electric variant in 2017. At the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show, Hyundai confirmed that the EV will also get an autonomous system and showcased a concept car featuring the new technology. Essentially identical to the hybrid inside and out, the Autonomous Ioniq is one of the few self-driving cars in development to have a hidden LiDAR system in its front bumper instead of on the roof and Hyundai says that its goal is to keep the self-driving systems as simple as possible. This will be accomplished by using the Ioniq\u2019s Smart Cruise Control radar, along with its Lane Keep Assist cameras and integrating them with LiDAR technology.\nHyundai also announced that it\u2019s developing its own autonomous vehicle operating system, which will result in a low-cost platform that can be installed in future Hyundai models that should be more affordable. A display-only model in L.A., the Autonomous Ioniq was further showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2017, where two cars were \"driven\" on the streets of Las Vegas. There\u2019s no specific timetable as to when the production car will arrive, but Hyundai is already testing three autonomous Ioniqs and two autonomous Tucson Fuel Cell SUVs at its research and development center in Namyang, South Korea. Early 2018 sounds like a reasonable launch date.\nContinue reading to learn more about the Hyundai Autonomous IONIQ concept.\nHyundai Unveils Autonomous Ioniq Concept In Los Angeles\nSelf-driving Hyundais will soon be cruising the Vegas Boulevards. Up for taking a ride?\nThe Hyundai Ioniq first made its debut in Hyundai\u2019s home country of South Korea but in January of 2016 as a hybrid. Since then, it has spawned two other versions \u2013 an all-electric model and a plug-in hybrid model that doubled a 1.6-liter four-banger with a 45 kW electric motor. As the 2016 L.A. Auto Show kicked off, Hyundai grew its Ioniq lineup yet again with the introduction of Autonomous Ioniq Concept. OF course, as the Concept name implies, it\u2019s not a real production model the Ioniq triplets that we\u2019re already familiar with, but it is a firm representation of what the model will be when level 5 autonomy is perfected and legal for use on public roads. The biggest news about this concept is that the LIDAR system used to identify the car\u2019s surrounds is stashed away and hidden inside the bumper instead of sitting on the roof. But, there\u2019s more to it than that, so let\u2019s talk a little more about it.\nThe whole purpose of the concept is to showcase an autonomous system that would be safe and easy to transition to from regular or semi-autonomous vehicles. As such, all autonomous controls have been built into the existing systems that are used on the production models. The system works by the use of a forward facing radar to detect the speed of objects and help with route planning, a three-camera system that picks up lane markings, traffic signals and the proximity of pedestrians, and a GMS antenna that can be used to determine the exact location of the vehicle just about anywhere. It also uses high-def mapping information from MnSoft that keeps the onboard systems apprised of road grade and curvature, lane width, and indication data. Finally, there\u2019s a separate radar from blind spot detection to make sure a basic lane change doesn\u2019t end up in disaster.\nThe production variants of the Ioniq already offer features found on other models like automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane-departure warning, among other things. So, this concept quite literally showcases what the next evolution of Hyundai\u2019s autonomous future holds.\nHyundai Ioniq Hybrid Sets Speed Record At Bonneville Salt Flats\nIt\u2019s funny how far laughing gas can take \u2018ya\u2026\nHybrid power is in a weird in-between state at the moment. On one side of the equation, you have insane spaceship-esque performance cars like the McLaren P1, Ferrari LaFerrari, and Porsche 918 Spyder. On the other side, you have calm, cool, collected commuter-mobiles like the Hyundai Ioniq. The question is how do you bridge these two philosophies? Both pair electrification with internal combustion, but the gulf between them seems impassable. Luckily, Hyundai is on the case, having set a new land speed record by going 157.825 mph in a specially modified Ioniq four-door.\n\u201cOur engineering team really pushed the limits to set this new segment benchmark while demonstrating the impressive durability of the entire Ioniq vehicle platform,\u201d said Mike O\u2019Brien, vice president of Corporate and Product Planning at Hyundai Motor America. \u201cWe expect this will be the first of many accolades for Ioniq.\u201d\nThe effort was spearheaded by Hyundai Motor America\u2019s Engineering and Quality Team (U.S.A.! U.S.A.!), which was so impressed with the car\u2019s overall quality when it was first received, it decided to go for a land speed record.\nThe official record set was for production-based hybrid vehicles, as approved by the FIA. And although the official record is just under 158 mph, the race car actually peaked out at 160.7 mph.\nSo what\u2019s it take to get an Ioniq going that fast? Read on for the details.\nHyundai developed an electric car that can easily trump the competition\nHyundai has created a bit of a splash at the 2016 Geneva Auto Show with its Ioniq lineup. It has brought the Ioniq Hybrid, Ioniq Plug-in, and more importantly, the Ioniq Electric. The hybrid and plug-in variants use Hyundai\u2019s 1.6-liter, GDI, gasoline engine, but the electric flies down the road with nothing more than a lithium-ion polymer battery and an electric motor. Those looking for all-electric mobility should take the Ioniq into consideration as it does offer a decent range on a full charge. The car itself is a little different on the outside compared to the hybrid and plug-in models, considering its electric nature and all. Aside from that, however, the car offers the same safety and infotainment features as the other models in the Ioniq lineup.\nJochen Sengpiehl, the Vice President of Marketing for Hyundai Motor Europe said, \u201cIoniq is an important step forward for our brand. We are bringing a unique new approach to e-mobility, with no compromise on design, driving pleasure and connectivity. And we\u2019re making it accessible to more customers, further extending our product line-up.\u201d So, let\u2019s take a look at the Hyundai Ioniq Electric and see just what this vehicle brings to the table and why you should consider it as an alternative to gasoline-powered models.\nContinue reading to learn more about the Hyundai Ioniq Electric.\nCars / Hyundai / Hyundai Ioniq",

        "title": "BHA \u2013 Is Cancer Lurking in Your Food? | Total Health Institute",
        "raw_content": "BHA \u2013 Is Cancer Lurking in Your Food?\nTake a quick look into your refrigerator or kitchen cupboards, and grab something random off of one of the shelves. Ignore, for a moment, the fresh fruits and vegetables which should be taking pride of place in your kitchen. Just grab something common and right to hand, say a box of cereal, loaf of bread, or even some butter or yoghurt. Go ahead, I\u2019ll wait. Found something? Good. Now take a look at the list of ingredients. Anything there you find troublesome? Because you should. In all likelihood, whatever you have grabbed from your kitchen shelf has a long list of ingredients, many of which you need a PhD in biochemistry to recognize. One of these is BHA, a chemical used as a preservative in many prepackaged foods. If you don\u2019t know what BHA is, and food manufacturers hope you don\u2019t, it\u2019s time to get brought up to speed on this hazardous food additive.\nWhat is BHA and Why is it in Your Food?\nBHA, or to give it its full name butylated hydroxyanisole, is a petroleum based chemical additive that is commonly used in the manufacture of prepackaged foods, cosmetics and over the counter medicines. It is used primarily as a preservative, retarding the natural oxidization of oils in order to prevent organic based products from spoiling or going rancid. Manufactures use BHA to give their products a longer shelf life, as well as a more uniform color and texture. BHA can be found in everything from lipsticks to aspirin; from yoghurt to canned peaches. But there is a problem with BHA, and it is a big one. BHA is a confirmed carcinogen, and it has been directly linked with an increased risk of developing cancer.\nBHA and Cancer\nBHA is a fat soluble chemical, that when ingested is broken down by the body. Ultimately, everything we ingest will have either a positive, or negative effect on our health. In the case of BHA, the effect appears to be a negative one. While scientists and food manufacturers assert that BHA is safe, ongoing research is proving otherwise. Recent ongoing studies into the effects of BHA are showing a verifiable link between prolonged exposure to this chemical additive and cancers of the stomach, liver, and kidneys. These same studies are also demonstrating a definite link between BHA exposure and irreversible damage to the thyroid gland.\nBHA, the FDA, and the Rest of the World\nIn the United States, the FDA has classed BHA as \u201cgenerally recognized as safe.\u201d Hardly a ringing endorsement. Moreover, because the FDA has classed BHA as \u201cgenerally recognized as safe\u201d, it has not had to undergo a pre-market review. Subsequent independent reviews have supported the FDA\u2019s claims, with the caveat that uncertainties still exist and further research is required. But other countries recognize the danger that BHA presents and have banned its use as a food additive. Japan, the United Kingdom, and the European Union have all taken steps to ban the use of BHA. Surely, these countries wouldn\u2019t ban BHA unless it was deemed hazardous to the health of their citizens.\nAvoiding BHA\nUnfortunately, BHA is so commonly used by American manufacturers that it is hard to avoid. As we have seen it is in everything from breakfast cereal to cosmetics. That being said, there are steps you can take to limit your exposure. All foods containing BHA must be clearly labeled, and as a consumer you should make it a point to read the labels of products you are purchasing. Avoid those products that list BHA as an ingredient, and beware of general labels that list things like \u201cother preservatives\u201d or \u201cpreservatives add for extra freshness\u201d. In general, foods containing BHA are not healthy choices in and of themselves, so avoiding these should be easy. Second, whenever possible choose fresh organic fruits and vegetables. Look for minimally processed foods that are clearly labeled as \u201cfree from additives\u201d. For the most part, these are healthier choices anyway and should be a growing part of your health and nutrition strategy.\nBHA may be an uncommonly common food additive in the US, but that doesn\u2019t mean that you have to expose yourself to it. While the FDA may refuse to acknowledge the harmful effects of BHA, as consumers we can take steps to limit our exposure and protect the health of ourselves and our families. Buy certified organic products whenever possible and remember the more ingredients on a label that you cannot pronounce or that looks like chemical, they usually have a negative effect on your overall health.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb News \u00bb On the Origins of Password Security\nOn the Origins of Password Security\nThe other day, I stumbled across a study on how mentioning gifts affects the success rate of social engineering with respect to obtaining passwords. One gift stood out. Yes, you know the one: chocolate.\nThe research showed that this small gift greatly increased the likelihood of participants giving away their password. If the chocolate was only given out afterwards, 29.8 percent of participants revealed their passwords. However, if the chocolate was received generally beforehand, a total of 43.5 percent of the respondents shared their password with the interviewer.\nI found that ridiculous. It would take at least chocolate AND coffee to get me to hand over my password.\nI\u2019m kidding, of course.\nThere are questions about the study that aren\u2019t answered, such as whether the socially engineered passwords were real or not. But more interesting is the reasoning behind the study: to investigate human nature.\nIt turns out that we are generally reluctant to receive a gift without giving one in return. Some have gone so far as to call this a \u201cuniversal\u201d principle. Based on that observation, researchers attempted to exploit that tendency in the study.\nWhich is really all that social engineering is, after all: understanding how to manipulate human nature to produce an expected result.\nBut let\u2019s not get ahead of ourselves here. Is the tendency to return a gift after receiving one really universal, or is it learned?\nThe answer matters because if it\u2019s the latter, the question becomes whether such a learned tendency can be overridden by other, just as strongly implanted tendencies. If it\u2019s something we teach our children, it\u2019s a learned behavior.\nBut it seems almost instinctual if you\u2019ve been taught to be that way. And if that\u2019s the case, we should* be able to exploit the way in which a deep-seated learned behavior can become nearly instinctual by doing the same thing with password security.\nIf, for example, I rear my children with a very strict policy of not sharing passwords under any circumstances, will that override the gift-returning impulse? Is the proverb \u201craise up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it\u201d applicable for password security?\nI suspect at this point in Internet history we can\u2019t know the answer, for there isn\u2019t a large enough population of children who have assumed adulthood after being raised with a strict \u201cno sharing passwords\u201d policy. My three adult children were, and the fourth is also, but that\u2019s a statistically insignificant pool from which to perform such a study.\nOur youngest son\u2019s school \u2013 which unsurprisingly makes use of many different applications for reading and math, among other subjects \u2013 also reinforces the \u201cno sharing passwords\u201d behavior. I\u2019m sure many of you have the same story to tell.\nIf we\u2019re going to keep fighting a Sisyphean battle of password security, we can ignore that the bad guys seem to understand human nature better than we do, or we can start figuring out how to make that nature work for us.\nStill, it\u2019s going to be years before we can duplicate such a study and find out whether such efforts have borne fruit. In the meantime, it\u2019s an interesting question to think about.\nCan we socially engineer (in the purest sense of the term) the next generation into better security practices?\n*I am not a psychologist or social-anything, but deductive reasoning seems to tell us this is possible if not true.\nTags chocolate, gift, Lori MacVittie, password, security, social engineering",

The panel considered an amount closer to the union rates, but decided instead to set the rate for department heads more in line with the county\u2019s elected leaders.\nThe county compensation board recommended wage hikes for the county auditor, treasurer, recorder, attorney and sheriff ranging from 5%-12%. But the county board sliced them by 80%, settling on increases of between roughly .5% to 2.5%.\nIt appears the only employees who will be shut out are the county board members themselves. They chose to freeze their salaries for the fiscal year that begins July 1, 2017.\nThe county's budget must be approved by mid-March. At this point, the county plans to reduce the $1.5-million shortfall by watching spending during the year and using fund balances.\nLee County Might Spend $800,000 on Building Repairs/Upgrades\nBy Jason Parrott \u2022 Jan 19, 2017\nThe Lee County Board is considering a proposal to spend $800,000 on its buildings over the next 18 months. The county's maintenance department included $400,000 in its proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2018, which begins July 1, 2017. It also would like to spend an additional $400,000 to its FY17 budget.\nLee County's Prosecutor Retiring After Nearly 40 Years\nBy Jason Parrott \u2022 Jan 4, 2017\nLee County Attorney Mike Short submitted to the county his letter of resignation Tuesday morning. He said the time has come for him to retire.\nLee County Hires Construction Manager for Building Renovations\nVoters told the Lee County Board in November to repair the county\u2019s historic courthouses in Keokuk and Fort Madison instead of building a new courthouse near the county jail. The board appears to be listening, as it approved the hiring of a construction manager, this week, to prioritize and oversee upcoming projects.\nLee County Board Will Not Seek Financial Info on the Mills Group\nDaily Gate City\nThe company attempting to purchase Keokuk Steel Castings will not have to reveal any additional financial information to the Lee County Board.\nCurrent, Former Lee County Leaders Donating to Courthouse Efforts\nBy Jason Parrott \u2022 Nov 3, 2016\nLee County residents are being asked to decide whether the county should borrow up to $8.5-million dollars to build a new courthouse and renovate another building.

Modern systems which satisfy this new communication standard are also implemented whenever obsolete or defective control and management systems are replaced. The use of devices compatible with the IEC 61850 standard in a power or transformer station presents a challenge to many system integrators. While interoperability is ensured when the devices used are all made by the same manufacturer, system integrators may have to fall back on devices from different manufacturers that offer better or extended functions. In such situations, there is no guarantee of the interoperability of the devices produced by different manufacturers.\nIEC 61850: Interoperability Test\nThe IEC 61850 is an extensive standard and the conformity of a device according to this standard does not necessarily imply the interoperability with devices from different manufacturers.

        "title": "No There There by Chris Rhomberg - Paperback - University of California Press",
        "raw_content": "No There There Race, Class, and Political Community in Oakland\nby Chris Rhomberg (Author)\nRace & Class Urban Sociology\nSocial Movements and Urban Political Community\nOn the night of May 5, 1922, a crowd of some fifteen hundred men wearing white robes and masks gathered silently in a valley in the hills above Oakland, California. Rows of parked cars lined the nearby road, and two searchlights beamed across the sky as a fiery cross burned behind an altar draped with the American flag. At a given signal, five hundred more unmasked men marched four abreast toward the altar to take their oaths and be initiated into the order of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Newspaper reporters were brought in to record the scene, and hooded Klansmen from as far away as San Francisco, Sacramento, Fresno, San Jose, and Los Angeles came to join their Oakland brethren for the ceremony.\nIn the early 1920s, a powerful Ku Klux Klan movement burst forth in many American cities, targeting immigrant Jews and Catholics as well as people of color and attracting an estimated four to six million members, in what some consider to be the largest right-wing movement in our nation's history. By 1924, the Oakland Klan alone enrolled at least two thousand members, including such prominent and ordinary citizens as Protestant clergy, small businessmen, professionals and managers, salesmen, skilled workers, public employees, and even the son of a U.S. Congressman. A year later, the Oakland Tribune reported that eighty-five hundred Klansmen and women and their supporters from across the country filled the Oakland Auditorium to witness the swearing-in of five hundred members joining the national order.\nBlending prejudice with advocacy on issues like Prohibition and opposition to urban machine politics, the Klan enjoyed significant support in Oakland, a city whose population in 1920 was more than 90 percent white. Local Klan leaders won election as county sheriff in 1926 and city commissioner of streets in 1927, and quickly established their own patronage networks in city hall. Their power was finally broken in a celebrated graft trial prosecuted by Alameda County District Attorney (and later U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice) Earl Warren. The scandal achieved such notoriety that it led directly to a major reform of the Oakland city charter in 1930 that abolished the city commissions and created a city-manager form of government.\nFast-forward to 1946. By this time, Oakland had already experienced the economic and political upheavals of the Great Depression and New Deal eras, including the 1934 General Strike across the bay in nearby San Francisco. World War II accelerated the process of change, stimulating production in local shipyards and factories and attracting a massive influx of new workers to labor in the defense industries. By 1945, Oakland's population had increased by as much as a third and its black population had more than tripled, reaching almost 10 percent of the total number of city residents.\nNationally, the end of the war was followed in 1946 by a wave of strikes, the largest in American history, involving more than four million workers. In Oakland, however, class polarization emerged not from the factories or the waterfront but from a strike of downtown retail clerks, most of whom were women. In late 1946, a majority of workers at Kahn's, a department store, and Hastings, a men's store, struck to demand recognition of their union. Local drivers from the International Brotherhood of Teamsters honored their picket line and refused to deliver goods to the stores during a busy holiday season. The retail business elites then pressured the city government to break the picket, and a massive display of police force sparked a citywide General Strike by the city's American Federation of Labor (AFL) unions in protest. For two and a half days, an estimated one hundred thousand striking workers from 142 unions shut down factories, shipyards, construction sites, most retail shops, and virtually all transportation in the city. Crowds estimated at between five thousand and twenty thousand people rallied in downtown Oakland in largely peaceful demonstrations outside the struck stores.\nLabor insurgency carried over through the following spring, when four union-endorsed candidates won upset elections to the city council, despite a vigorous Red-baiting campaign led by the Oakland Tribune. The popular challenge in city government lasted until 1950, when politics in Oakland again split into two camps. Backed by the AFL Central Labor Council, the local Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO), and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), the city council voted to authorize the construction of three thousand units of federally subsidized public housing, as part of a comprehensive plan to remove urban \"blight\" in the central city. Opponents attacked the plan as \"socialistic\" and, led by the Apartment House Owners Association and the Oakland Real Estate Board, launched a recall campaign against the progressive councillors. The result was the defeat of one of the councillors, the withdrawal of the housing proposal, and the end of the liberal coalition on the city council.\nTurn again to twenty years later. The city's African American population had grown steadily during the postwar decades, but racial segregation in housing kept it concentrated initially in the West Oakland ghetto, where unemployment and poverty were at least two to three times the city average. By the 1960s, however, continued population growth, along with displacements resulting from highway construction and urban renewal projects, pushed black residents toward other areas of the city. Tensions in racially transitional neighborhoods led to increased intervention by the city's social service and law enforcement agencies to control juvenile delinquency and manage problems of \"social disorganization.\" These early efforts in Oakland later expanded under (and served as a model for) national urban social programs sponsored by the Ford Foundation and the federal government's War on Poverty.\nAs the civil rights movement of the '60s spread from the southern states to cities in the North and West, such programs frequently became the catalysts for black community organization and political mobilization. In Oakland, struggles emerged for control of the city's Community Action Agency and Model Cities programs, centering on demands for jobs, housing, and social services, as well as long-standing grievances over police conduct in the black community. The latter, especially, helped give rise to the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, founded in Oakland in 1966.\nRacial polarization persisted for years in Oakland, as a conservative white political elite held on to power in city government and black community organizations engaged in a \"long march\" through the corridors of an array of urban public bureaucracies. Unlike many other American cities, no major riot occurred in Oakland during the period, but the city did not escape violence, including several fatal shootouts between Black Panther members and police. Yet despite the imprisonment or exile of many leading members between 1967 and 1973, Black Panther Party chair Bobby Seale's 1973 campaign for mayor won a stunning 37 percent of the vote, in the largest turnout for a regular municipal election in Oakland's history.\nProtest and Discontinuity in American Society\nOne city, three periods of popular insurgency. Each movement touched on above is radically different from the others; each one arises from a different social location or base, adopts a different form, and articulates a different collective identity, centered on ethnicity, class, and race, respectively. Yet all three occurred in the same place and within a relatively short span of about fifty years\u2014in effect, one person's adult lifetime. How could that be? We are accustomed to thinking of cities as almost organic entities, each with its own unique biography and personality, the history of their physical development embodied in their streets, skylines, and neighborhoods, their collective memory held together by the accumulated ties of community. But what kind of community could repeatedly undergo such diverse moments of mass polarization? It is almost as if we were talking about three different cities. The sheer juxtaposition of these movements in one place challenges our understanding and raises at least two questions. First, what explains their rapid disjuncture? Even if we allow for substantial social change in Oakland between periods, that only begs the second question: What were the lasting effects, if any, of each movement on subsequent periods and on the local community?\nThese questions are not just a puzzle for sociological theory, nor is Oakland an isolated case. Each one of these episodes occurred as part of nationwide social and political mobilizations that swept across twentieth-century urban America. In the 1920s, a resurgent white nativist (or Second) Klan prospered not only in the Old South but also in Indianapolis, Denver, Los Angeles, and other cities and towns across the northern and western United States. Contrary to popular perceptions, urban Klan members came from a wide range of socioeconomic strata; many had solid social standing, and the movement was strongest where native white Protestants were a majority or rising group, not a backward or declining one. Alongside racial and ethnic intolerance, Klan leaders frequently espoused mainstream middle-class values, calling for good government, better law enforcement, and improvements in public schools and city services, and they gained considerable support through participation in electoral politics.\nA few years later, urban workers were at the forefront of protests against the economic crisis of the 1930s. In 1934, strikes of factory hands in Toledo, truck drivers in Minneapolis, and stevedores in San Francisco sparked mass uprisings and bore witness to the revival of labor militancy throughout the country. In the mill towns of New England and in the auto and steel hubs of the industrial Midwest, CIO union drives galvanized virtually entire communities, while in the metropolitan port cities of the West and East, longshore, maritime, and transportation workers challenged local elites for power. With the end of World War II, the nation's streets filled with discharged soldiers, migrant war workers, and striking union members, and in 1946, citywide general strikes broke out not just in Oakland but also in Stamford, Connecticut; Lancaster and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Houston, Texas; and Rochester, New York.\nFinally, African American experiences of migration and urbanization in the postwar period formed the social bases for the rise of the modern civil rights movement. Urban black communities provided the crucible, as sociologist Aldon Morris observes, for the \"institutional building and the proliferation of dense social networks across localities and across neighborhoods in cities through which the movement was mobilized and sustained.\" Conditions in cities also transformed the movement as it spread from the South to the racial ghettoes of the North, charting a trajectory of protest from civil rights to black power. Across the era as a whole, these changes are remembered by their urban landmarks: Montgomery and Greensboro; Birmingham and Selma; Watts, Newark, and Detroit.\n\"As an urban nation,\" political scientist John Mollenkopf writes, \"urban development issues have been a primary, if not exclusive, factor in our national political development.\" Similarly, in this book I argue that each one of these movements both reflected and called into question the experience of urban political community at distinct moments in the past century. Each represented a crucial struggle over the boundaries of the polity and the meaning of popular civic participation, and all were pivotal historical junctures in the patterning of race, class, and urban politics in the United States. Each is significant in its own right, but my aim here is to bring all three together in one place, in order to examine their relationships with one another and the dynamics of mobilization and community in urban space. And by focusing on the puzzle of their discontinuity, I believe, an analysis of these movements can help shed light on the conditions of political community in our country today.\nSocial Movements and Political Community:\nIf the theme of this study is discontinuity, what then do these diverse movements have in common? What theoretical guidelines or tools can we use to trace their causes and consequences, and to fit them into a comparative frame? How may we identify the key actors, the conditions affecting them, and the outcomes of their interaction? In this book, I employ an explanatory framework built on three basic analytic dimensions: socioeconomic structure, institutional politics, and urban civil society. To specify these I introduce here concepts drawn from three corresponding, well-known paradigms in sociology and political science: (1) traditional political sociology, grounded in the social bases of groups; (2) the \"new institutionalism,\" with its central focus on the state; and (3) social movement theory, highlighting processes of group formation and mobilization in civil society. Each of these theoretical approaches helps explain part of the story, I argue, but each is by itself incomplete. Only by looking at it from all three perspectives together can we fully grasp the historical relationship between social movements and political community.\nSocioeconomic Structure:\nTraditional Political Sociology\nLet us begin with the old school. Traditionally, the field of political sociology took as its starting point the social origins of politics, and specifically the emergence of groups and interests from positions in an underlying social structure. This was true of classical Marxism, with its antagonistic classes arising from the societal division of labor; but it was no less true for the American pluralist social science of the 1950s and '60s, in which groups of individuals from various social strata developed different political values and interests, expressed in voting preferences and other behavior. For both, macrostructural conditions in the economy and society produced the bases for the formation of groups, whose interests were translated more or less directly into the polity and into political outcomes.\nThis approach has been subject to much criticism, of course, most often for its \"reduction\" of politics and culture to mere reflections of socioeconomic structure. Notwithstanding these criticisms, for our purposes the traditional paradigm continues to offer an essential point of departure. The analysis of social structure calls attention to categorical inequalities among groups, in terms of their access to and control over resources. Structures embody enduring, unequal, and contradictory relationships, and therefore generate recurring problems of integration and social order, the solutions to which raise questions of political power. Thus, a structure of wage labor creates problems for employers of recruiting, paying, and controlling a labor force, and problems for workers of securing jobs, income, and regulation of work. Structures of urban settlement create shared circumstances of collective consumption for residents of an area, as well as competition with other users of the spatial environment. In each case, the structural position of actors may systematically afford or deprive them of resources or advantages in pursuing different goals.\nProcesses of structural change likewise affect the configuration of social relations found in the city. Geographers have examined the ways in which mobile capital investment and successive rounds of development produce uneven \"layers\" of urban economic and spatial structure. Others have studied the entry of generations of urban migrants and their descendants into various occupational or labor market niches. The distribution of residential housing also defines groups through the segregation of urban neighborhoods by class and race or ethnicity. These processes are all visibly illustrated in Oakland, where the peculiarities of the city's industrial and occupational structure, the means of access to its labor and housing markets, and its patterns of migration and urban growth produced the bases for spatial differentiation and social inequality among groups.\nA structural approach, therefore, identifies important societal cleavages and the unequal conditions affecting different groups. By itself, however, structural analysis does not explain each group's concrete political interests, their alignment with or against other groups, the strategic opportunities for action, or the particular shape of state institutions or policy. Nor does it explain processes of group formation and mobilization, or the outcomes of actual events of collective action. In short, socioeconomic structures are necessary but insufficient determinants of group formation and political conflict. Throughout the twentieth century, the city of Oakland underwent substantial structural change, much of it driven by external forces, as during the rapid transformation of the region during World War II. Nevertheless, local actors still had to negotiate the form and impact of these changes within the community. How they did so must be explained with reference to the other two analytic dimensions.\nThe \"New Institutionalism\"\nMore recent generations of political theorists have developed an alternative perspective, sometimes referred to as the new institutionalism. This paradigm shifts the burden of explanation from the structural bases of groups to the organizational field of politics, centered on the institutions of the state. In this view, state actors and political institutions do not simply reflect social forces but possess powers and interests of their own, and actively shape the political terrain for all groups. Unlike traditional political sociology, this theory holds that groups do not enter the political arena with predetermined capacities or goals. Rather, the political terrain itself determines the prevailing \"rules of the game,\" deciding who counts as an actor, what is or can become an \"issue,\" and how power is to be exercised.\nAt the level of the city, this approach may be specified using the concept of urban political \"regimes,\" as developed by political scientist Clarence Stone and others. In this model, local political actors build alliances with private economic and social groups in order to promote urban development and govern more effectively. Power is viewed as coordinating capacity within governing coalitions, rather than as direct command or control; constituent group interests are negotiated within the dominant coalition, which determines those policy alternatives that are deemed practically achievable and how groups may benefit from them. The alliances in the regime are held together by formal and informal ties extending into civil society, which facilitate the cooperation of actors around a unifying policy agenda and overall political project.\nThe regime model links the formal institutions of the state with the composition of its constituent groups, their mode of cooperation, and the resources they can coordinate. Established regimes are self-reinforcing, with considerable power to suppress opposing interests, not so much through direct force as through the preemptive weight of the regime's accumulated relations of coordination. Subordinate or excluded groups face the daunting task of contesting not only more powerful actors but also the principles of organization in the regime. As Stone writes, \"Challenging a regime is not simply a question of mobilizing opposition. It means restructuring the ways in which people and groups are related to one another and providing new avenues of cooperation between them.\"\nThe periods of protest in Oakland each occurred under distinct urban political regimes. The Klan mobilized against a regime characterized by machine patronage, organized by ethnic politicians like Alameda County boss Michael Kelly. In the '30s and '40s, labor insurgency rose up against the power of what I call business managerialism, personified in the figure of J. R. Knowland, the conservative Republican publisher of the Oakland Tribune. In the '60s, the civil rights and black power movements encountered a racial order regulated by bureaucratic insulation, administered through the city government, quasi-independent local authorities, and federal programs. In each case, the organization of the regime embodied a specific set of political alliances and defined the dominant terrain of politics for the period.\nInstitutionalist state and urban regime theories tell us much about the boundaries of inclusion and exclusion in the polity, the interests and alignments among political actors, and how groups become established or hegemonic in different political or governmental arenas. But they still do not explain the origins of insurgent movements, how oppositional identity develops within excluded groups, or how the latter sometimes do in fact challenge regimes. Neither structural change nor political institutions alone can explain mobilization, as it develops through a historical process of self-organization among groups, and as it is revealed in the episodic pattern of collective action observed in Oakland. To understand this process we must look to the third analytical dimension, the arena of civil society, using social movement theory as a guide.\nCurrent sociological theories of social movements generally incorporate elements of the structural and political-institutional perspectives described above, as causal factors shaping the context for mobilization. Thus macrosocial changes like urbanization, industrialization, and migration affect groups' mobilization potential through changes in population size and demographic patterns, relative societal location, spatial concentration, and means of communication. Similarly, the political terrain affects the strategic opportunities for action and the articulation of concrete issues and interests. Where social movement theory makes a distinctive contribution, however, is in its focus on processes of mobilization in civil society.\nBy civil society I mean the \"middle ground\" of social relations between the socioeconomic structure and the state. This refers to the broad field of private, formal voluntary association\u2014including the variety of social, cultural, and community organizations, churches, labor unions, neighborhood associations, advocacy groups, and others\u2014as well as the more informal world of family and friends, personal networks of mutual dependency and support, and the spontaneous conviviality of the \"daily round.\" Relations in civil society support the emergence of various public spaces in which people learn about, discuss, and form opinions on social and political concerns independently of the state and of the formal institutions of the public sphere (e.g., mass media, legislatures, courts).\nThese social spaces correspond to what social movement theorists call \"micromobilization contexts,\" and they function as arenas or sites for the collective formation of social identity and political opinion. Participants in these spaces engage in an open-ended \"cultural and ideological contest or negotiation\" that includes the content of public affairs, their identities as speakers, and the location of boundaries between the public and private worlds. As a whole, civil society is a \"multi-organizational field\" that encompasses diverse streams of public discourse, whose interactions create the possibility for innovative or oppositional cultures.\nIn the urban environment, two crucial arenas where association and group formation occur are the workplace and the neighborhood. In the railroads and shipyards, machine shops and warehouses, canneries and department stores, and street corners and agency offices, groups of Oakland workers interacted with one another and developed traditions and habits of organization and collective identity. At the same time, uneven patterns of housing and urban development both united and divided groups, from the old ethnic working-class neighborhood in West Oakland, to the white middle-class housing tracts in the foothills of East Oakland, to the growing division by race throughout the city after World War II. These spatial settings formed the scene for the routines of everyday life and the experience of urban community.\nSocial movements are constituted in and through this medium of civil society, through the collective working out of constructions of identity, solidarity, and public awareness. But civil society does not automatically produce political insurgency. Subordinate groups may be internally stratified, fractured by structural contradictions, or divided by legacies of prior organization and political conflict. Public spheres are often fragmented or dominated by elite interests, while civil society itself harbors exclusionary and hierarchical relations of private power. The ambivalence of civil society underlines the importance of specialized social movement organizations as strategic agents, who intervene in civil society to make groups into collective actors.\nMovement organizations do this by employing select repertoires of associational forms, resources, and tactics, including the cultural symbols deployed to inspire and maintain group solidarity. Resources are concentrated through an often difficult process of organization building, alliance formation, and outreach among the indigenous networks and relationships of persons within subordinate populations. At the same time, movement organizers try to unify the group through discursive strategies of \"framing\"\u2014articulating a sense of collective identity and shared grievance\u2014that draws on the group's own culture and the discursive possibilities in the public sphere. Movement organizations act as intermediaries between the mobilization of identity in society and the negotiation of interests in the polity. To paraphrase sociologist C. Wright Mills, they turn private troubles into public issues, transforming common experiences of group inequality into cohesive oppositional identities and specific goals, alliances, and political demands.\nMy analysis of Oakland focuses especially on the role played by social movement organizations against the backdrop of group formation in civil society. So, for example, the Klan used the familiar model of the secret fraternal society to promote a nativist ideology that combined Protestant moralism, urban reformism, and racial and ethnic chauvinism into a persuasive collective identity and mobilizing force. Labor unions gave an organizational form and voice to workers who had endured the Depression, migration, and war, transforming their hopes and fears into mass militancy and political action. The civil rights and black power movements drew on forms of ghetto neighborhood organization and racial solidarity to unite African American residents and challenge the city to overcome racial segregation and inequality.\nThis brings us to the question of urban political community. As we have seen, structural forces concentrate diverse populations in urban space, creating interdependencies of work, consumption, and residence in a local economic area, as well as shared interactions with local government and political institutions. Beyond these linkages, such populations form a political community through their formal and informal recognition of mutual rights and responsibilities to participate in collective self-governance. The content of their community, however\u2014its meaning and boundaries\u2014remains historically variable and often politically contested. Who belongs to the community and how they recognize their rights and responsibilities to one another are critical questions not only for analysis but for the participants themselves. For us, the answers to these questions will be most clearly revealed in events of collective action.\nCollective Action and the Struggle for Political Community\nThe analytic dimensions of socioeconomic structure, institutional politics, and civil society provide the theoretical scaffolding for my narrative account of events in Oakland. Within this framework, a comparison of the three movements reveals not an invariant outcome but a recurring problem. Urban political elites govern through the construction of regimes, organizing selective ties among actors in the state and society through machine patronage, business management, or bureaucratic administration. These regimes define the boundaries of community and the terrain of political power, in the cases described here along the lines of ethnicity, class, and race. Structural changes can and do destabilize regimes, however, creating opportunities for excluded groups. Challenging actors mobilize on the field of civil society, building up group solidarity, articulating their collective identity, and reaching out to a larger public. In the course of insurgency, challengers bring to bear strong new claims of political community on actors in the urban setting, in order to win recognition and achieve their demands.\nIn so doing, movement actors must create or expand the public spaces needed to make their challenges heard. Yet these public spaces are highly fragile, political institutions are normally exclusive, and privileged groups turn away from public dialogue toward the protection of private interests and domains. Under normal conditions, regime hegemony rests not on any strong consensus but on the demobilization or dispersal of opposition\u2014hence the explosiveness of polarization when it occurs. And urban civil society in the United States is itself a deeply fragmented terrain, divided historically by race, class, and other social fissures. The fragmentation of urban civil society undermines the capacity of the local civic arena to bind actors together in a mutually responsive political community.\nSocial movement organizers maneuvering on this terrain face difficult tasks: maintaining group unity, keeping coalitions together, and contending with more powerful actors. Moments of collective action are inevitably uncertain and involve real risks of repression, disintegration, or defeat. In the absence of a strong civic community, movement organizers turn instead to institutional strategies, attempting to secure their gains by incorporating group demands into the political fabric of the regime. The turn to institutionalization leads on the one hand to the decline of mobilization, and on the other to the redrawing of the boundaries of institutional power. Subsequent challenges, then, emerge from groups with different identities affected by different dimensions of exclusion, who face the legacy, and the limits, of previous rounds of reform. Thus discontinuity.\nAgain and again\u2014through protests and strikes, and in key local elections\u2014challenging actors in Oakland sought to enlarge the sphere of public discourse, and to gain access and entry to the polity. Yet, as often, the strength of the political community was insufficient to sustain the actors' engagement with one another. There was not enough there there; civil society remained divided, coalitions broke apart, and participation declined as movement actors settled into institutional reform. The outcomes produced the demobilization of collective actors and the reconstitution of urban regimes, not a continuing dialogue among groups in a dynamic political community.\nDiscontinuity, however, also means that boundaries and identities are not fixed. The institutional settlements affected the formation of actors but failed to eliminate the structures of inequality. As new structural changes occurred, or as relations among groups broke down, so the conditions of political community were again transformed. Social movements remained crucial vehicles in this process, reconfiguring identities and mobilizing collective actors in new forms.\nThe Problem of Discontinuity:\nIn a nutshell, this model describes the relationship I observe in Oakland between social movements and urban political community. How does my analysis compare to other accounts of these dynamics? To be sure, more traditional interpretations take a different view. Among the latter are what might be called the assimilationist, cyclical disorder, and social capital models of political community. Each of these draws from and lends itself to broad historical readings of American politics and society, and each offers a different explanation for social movement discontinuity. Yet none adequately distinguishes the three dimensions of socioeconomic structure, institutional politics, and civil society.\nThe Traditional Paradigm:\nPerhaps the most familiar version is the traditional assimilationist paradigm, in which periods of mobilization merely reflect the temporary pressures associated with the accommodation or entry of new groups into the American polity. In this model, cities are the great melting pots of American democracy, where members of incoming groups find opportunities for education and social mobility; develop multiple, cross-cutting social ties; and learn to participate in a unifying, public-regarding \"civic culture.\" Movements are but symptoms of the individual and social adjustments that occur in this process, which results in the progressive incorporation of groups into an open, liberal, and pluralist institutional arena.\nIn this view, the Klan serves as a negative case: Traditional accounts portray it as a reactionary extremist movement, the \"last desperate protest of a nineteenth-century Protestantism in the course of eclipse.\" Attracting mainly isolated, downwardly mobile or lower-middle-class persons on the margins of urban society, the Klan's bigotry and intolerance offered symbolic relief for its supporters' status anxieties, but the organization ultimately collapsed, along with its disappearing social base. By contrast, the labor struggles of the '30s and '40s captured the democratic aspirations of the rising urban immigrant working classes and delivered them into the high tide of political incorporation under the New Deal. Under the auspices of the 1935 National Labor Relations Act, unions became partners in the formation of an industrial welfare state, gaining a permanent status as an interest group aligned with the Democratic Party.\nWhat the labor movement did for ethnic working classes, by analogy, the civil rights movement did for blacks. As African Americans migrated from the rural South to the urban centers, they followed in the footsteps of the European immigrants, first organizing in their own communities and eventually pressing for the recognition of their rights. The civil rights movement won by appealing to established democratic values, earning northern liberal support against the archaic racial caste system of the Old South. With the passage of federal civil and voting rights laws in the 1960s, African Americans finally secured entry as equal members of the polity, fulfilling the promise of American democracy.\nThe assimilationist tradition rightly puts social movements in the context of macrostructural processes and periods of institutional change. But the ideology of progressive liberal incorporation often fails to understand how structural forces affect the social bases of groups, both before and after the process of \"entry.\" A growing body of historical research now shows that urban Klansmen were not disproportionally lower-class or marginal individuals, but instead roughly paralleled the general population in their communities. The organization of labor unions often both reflected and reinforced exclusionary labor markets and racial-ethnic divisions within the urban working class. And behind the achievements of the civil rights movement were persistent patterns of socioeconomic stratification, between blacks and whites and within the black population, some of which have since become even more pronounced.\nJust as important, the concept of an integrative civic culture presupposes that interests are represented more or less equally or transparently within a liberal political sphere. But civic and political institutions can be highly selective about which interests gain access and how they are represented. In the '20s, the Klan's racial and ethnic prejudice often proved no barrier to its political legitimacy, but rather mirrored prevailing public opinion among white Protestant middle classes, merging rhetorically with other elements of so-called progressive municipal reform. Conversely, labor historians have observed the institutional constraints imposed by the legal regulation of collective bargaining, notwithstanding the real gains that workers achieved. Capital mobility and limitations on workers' rights to organize meant that firms could abandon older unionized industrial cities and states for nonunion areas in the suburbs and in the South and West, where rapid postwar growth sustained the regional bases for the alliance of conservative Republicans and southern Democrats in the U.S. Congress. Throughout the postwar era, the unions were unable to alter these substantive constraints, despite their allegiance to the majority Democratic Party.\nOther scholars have emphasized the racial boundaries that characterized New Deal politics and policies from their beginnings. Later, as black migration increased to the urban North and West, federal and local housing and urban renewal programs systematically segregated or discriminated against African Americans. These and other government actions served to perpetuate informal but entrenched societal relations of racial exclusion in housing, employment, and education. Nondiscrimination laws alone proved insufficient to undo these relations, leading to the introduction of affirmative action and other mechanisms of state intervention to achieve integration and racial equality. These policies have had mixed success, however, and are themselves now increasingly under attack.\nIn short, the simple ebb and flow of mobilization cannot be taken as a sign of stable liberal assimilation. The fate of the New Deal and civil rights coalitions underlines the impermanence of their political settlements; contrary to the image of steady, progressive inclusion, relations among groups have seen periods of democratic expansion and conservative retrenchment. In the city, actors are made, unmade, and remade, altering not only the balance of power among interests but also the culture of the civic community.\nThe Limits of Assimilation:\nCyclical Disorder Theory\nA second, more skeptical, view of discontinuity might be labeled cyclical disorder theory. In this model, democratic institutions are if anything too open and subject to popular pressures. For political scientist Samuel Huntington, American political culture is defined by a historically constant system of beliefs or \"creed,\" identified with values of liberty, equality, individualism, and democracy. Periodically, Americans are seized by an intense moral fervor for these ideals, yet such moments of \"creedal passion\" raise excessive and contradictory demands that no government can practically satisfy. The result is an inevitable cycle of disappointment, cynicism, and political retreat, which then prepares the ground for renewed outbursts of creedal intensity. Political scientist James Morone argues that reformers in American politics win support by invoking a myth of \"the people\" as a united community, participating directly in the control of their own affairs. Once the desired reforms are actually implemented, however, the image of community dissolves into a maze of fragmented government bureaucracies and competing, self-interested groups. In these theories, democratic participation leads not to assimilation but to conflict and political gridlock, while collective action ends mainly in unintended consequences. Radical protest undermines established authority without realizing the reformers' ideals, and other critics have blamed social movements, particularly those of the '60s, for contributing to the breakdown of civic solidarity and urban moral order.\nCyclical disorder theorists correctly point to the limits of assimilation, and of the political system's capacity to mediate contradictory demands. But they do not adequately explain how or why political institutions have the distinct capacities that they do. In Oakland, as we shall see, the machine politics of the '20s, the business managerialism of the '30s and '40s, and the large-scale bureaucratic administration of the '60s were all different ways of organizing the polity, and each generated different kinds of responses. By contrast, the idea of a constant, invariant cycle does not capture the historical stakes involved in each period, and obscures significant differences in the development of political institutions and their relation to groups in society.\nSimilarly, broad, abstract notions of \"creed\" or \"people\" do not account well for the complex ways in which ethnic, class, and racial identities operated at each juncture. After all, the Klan was hardly egalitarian, unions did not preach individualism, and the civil rights movement showed no liberal fear of government. Likewise, pessimism about protest does not allow for how mobilization might actually express collective agency or effectively bring about change, notwithstanding its varied consequences. In each period, movement actors articulated specific identities, grievances, and alternative visions of the urban future. We will do better to trace more closely who the actors were in each case, their paths of formation, and their roles in the struggle to define their political community.\nThe Collapse of Community?\nSocial Capital and Civic Engagement\nOver the past decade, scholarly and public debates in the United States have again turned to problems of community and politics, although this time for very different reasons. Unlike the earlier periods of mobilization, in the 1990s researchers were more likely to note a disturbing decline in popular civic and political participation. In contrast to both the assimilationist faith in liberal integration and the cyclical theorists' distrust of democracy, Americans seemed to be losing their sense of political community altogether.\nOne of the more prominent figures in this \"civic disengagement\" debate has been political scientist Robert Putnam. In a series of publications, Putnam has argued that Americans have experienced a historic loss of individuals' \"social capital,\" by which he means those \"features of social life\u2014networks, norms, and trust\u2014that enable participants to act together more effectively to pursue shared objectives.\" For Putnam, social capital is the key to a healthy civil society, the essential precondition for bringing citizen action together with public policy and \"making democracy work.\" The collapse of a broad social connectedness has deprived citizens of vital links with their communities, thereby diminishing their attachment to public concerns.\nWhat has caused this decline of community? The demands of modern organizations of work, the sprawling pattern of urban growth, and the effects of television and mass media on leisure time have all played a part in eroding the ties among individuals. But for Putnam the most important factor is a generational gap in the socialization of persons into the norms and networks of social trust. In order to revive democratic participation, Putnam advocates revitalizing local grassroots forms of voluntary association, as a way to increase social capital and as a forum for popular civic education.\nThe debate over civic engagement has raised important questions about the current state of American political community, yet the analysis of social capital shares some of the weaknesses of the earlier theoretical approaches. The benign vision of local civil society discounts the historical weight of both structural group conflict and institutional power. Putnam's model implicitly recalls the older sociological theory of social disorganization, in which individuals' atomization leads to anomic dysfunctions and the failure to integrate into a consensual civic culture. Correspondingly, his programmatic stress falls on the education and socialization of individuals, not on the structural forces that unequally distribute resources and actively produce disorganization, or on the institutional barriers that discourage participation and disempower certain groups. Indeed, under some circumstances, comparatively higher levels of civic engagement might well take the form of polarization and mass protest, as we will see in Oakland.\nThe metaphor of social capital makes community a marketlike commodity, but the logic of markets does not spontaneously create democratic institutions. Putnam is right to bring our attention to the lived experience of everyday life in neighborhoods, workplaces, and other \"face-to-face\" associational settings typical of urban civil society. But the social capital approach blurs the transition from private voluntarism to political action, from civil society to public politics. The focus on individuals' norms and behavior neglects the role of collective actors in sustaining participation and in forging the bonds of political community. People engage in the life of their communities not only through private affiliations but also as members of mobilized groups, through strikes, demonstrations, elections, and other forms of collective action in the public sphere. These are often concentrated in highly contentious and pivotal events, whose outcomes shape our understanding of the content of political community.\nThe assimilationist, cyclical disorder, and social capital theories all fail to account adequately for the problem of social movement discontinuity. All underestimate the effect of structural forces on the social bases of groups, and on the resources available to them. All presume an open, neutral, and liberal civic and political arena, without adequately theorizing the institutional capacities, organization, or biases of the state. Finally, none provides an appropriate framework for understanding social movements, or political community, as a relationship among collective actors.\nOakland: A Case Study\nThis book offers a case study of these three social movements in Oakland, from the point of view of urban political development in twentieth-century America. As a case study, it draws on that tradition of social research, associated with Max Weber, which is grounded in the causal explanation of social action in specific historical contexts. In this tradition, as Charles Ragin writes, sociological analysis aims at generating \"limited historical generalizations that are objectively possible and cognizant of enabling conditions and limiting means\u2014of context.\" The approach is case-oriented because it looks to the configuration of causes and conditions in a given historical setting, interpreted as a whole. The in-depth study of particular cases can allow us to uncover those social mechanisms\u2014or what Charles Tilly calls \"recurrent causal sequences of general scope\"\u2014that are analogous across cases or relevant in other settings.\nMy focus is on the struggles of groups and actors to forge a political solidarity and community in an urban context. As a window onto these processes, the city of Oakland has certain advantages. Founded in the middle of the nineteenth century, it grew rapidly to its mature size during the period of this research, in the early and mid twentieth century. A medium-size city, with a population of 384,575 in 1950, it is large enough to feature problems of concentration, industrialization, and population change typical of American urban centers, yet small enough to permit observation of its social and political relations more or less as a whole. Moreover, the prominence of all three movements in the city's history makes it an especially useful case, displaying the more pronounced aspects of polarization and discontinuity that are my specific concerns.\nAt the same time, no claim is made here that Oakland is representative, statistically or otherwise, of all American cities. By identifying its unique circumstances, however, we can establish comparative standards for analyzing similar and different conditions in other cities and regions in the United States. Nor do I assume that all relevant contextual factors are enclosed within the city itself: Larger economic forces, state and national politics, broader cultural traditions, and even global events like World War II all exerted enormous influence. But whatever these external forces were, local actors still had to negotiate their impact on group relations and politics within Oakland, and they often did so in highly conscious and deliberate ways. That is the process that I will examine here.\nBecause of my interest in mobilization, I divide the overall time frame in Oakland into three periods, each associated with a specific movement and its dominant political terrain: roughly 1900 to 1930, 1930 to 1950, and 1950 to 1977. Although these periods do not perfectly separate each movement in time, arranging Oakland history in this way serves my analytical purposes in two ways: First, it allows for an individualizing comparison between periods, calling attention to their distinctive characteristics and differences; and second, it provides a longitudinal comparative design for inquiry into the sequential relationship between periods of movement activity.\nMy central problem is to explain change\u2014discontinuity\u2014across periods in the same place, and correlatively to ask what effects earlier periods had on later ones. Hence, I depart from the traditional variable-based causal models that are standard in much of contemporary social science. Such models require strong assumptions of equivalence and independence between cases in order to test the validity of uniform hypotheses generalized for all cases. This would require assuming, at the outset, that each period had no effect on the others\u2014in other words, that at three successive times, Oakland really was simply three different cities, all subject to the same causal forces. Regardless of whether such a claim were plausible, it would immediately assume away an investigation into what I am really interested in\u2014namely, the discontinuity and sequence, or change, between periods.\nMoreover, in variable-based methods, cases do not operate as contexts, or configurations of parts in interrelated wholes, that are subject to reflexive action or internal transformation. Instead, cases are assumed to be drawn from a population of fixed entities with analytically separate attributes. The researcher hypothesizes that some of these attributes affect other attributes, and the hypothesized causal factors act largely independently from one another to produce constant effects across all cases. Again, this abstracts from the very features with which I am most concerned: the relations between groups and actors in the temporal unfolding of events.\nTherefore, I adopt a narrative analytic method, in order to capture what sociologist Larry Griffin describes as \"the mutually constitutive interplay of agency and social structure, a dynamic continuously occurring in time and through time.\" From this perspective, causal social forces are embedded in the sequences of interactions between actors and their historical context, understood as a set of enabling conditions, influences, and constraints. This approach allows for the possibility that actors and events may alter their environments, that outcomes in earlier periods may affect conditions for later ones, and that the institutional settings for and meanings of action can change, for example, as the central axis of political conflict shifts from one set of identities to another (see the methodological appendix).\nThe Plan of This Book\nIn the story that follows, I begin my study of each period by surveying the socioeconomic structural conditions generating the social bases of unequal groups. I then describe the organization of the dominant political regime, its member groups and their mode of coordination, and the ways these factors define the boundaries of inclusion and exclusion in the urban polity. I observe the paths of group formation on the field of urban civil society, focusing especially on the rise of new or newly mobilized collective identities and forms of organization.\nAt crucial junctures, the paths of these groups intersect in urban public space. I follow the interactions of movement actors and established elites in sequences of mobilization and conflict, tracing the steps that lead to polarization and political crisis. In such moments, the opposition between the goals of the movement and the mechanisms of reproduction in the regime highlight the choices at stake and their implications for the future pattern of urban development. The outcomes of these events, in turn, shape the political terrain for subsequent periods of regime-making and social movement challenge.\nFor clarity of exposition, each period is divided into two chapters. The first describes the context of mobilization under the existing regime, and the second concentrates on events leading to increasing polarization and its outcomes. Chapter 2 begins by drawing a baseline of economic, political, and social development in Oakland from the beginning of the twentieth century to 1920, showing how these forces generated the principal contending groups and the dominant political terrain. On the one hand, an old corporate elite and an ethnic (Catholic) working class were united through a system of urban machine patronage, while on the other, a rising downtown merchant class and white Protestant middle class experienced exclusion from this regime and increasingly mobilized for reform. Structural changes up through World War I destabilized these actors and their alliances, leading to a brief upsurge of working-class militancy, which was largely defeated after the war.\nThis review sets the stage for the events of the '20s, described in chapter 3. Rapid commercial and residential growth greatly increased the size and strength of both downtown business and the white middle class, the latter providing the social base for the emergence of the Ku Klux Klan. Taking the form of a secret fraternal society (a common form of grassroots social and political organization at the time), the Klan mobilized opposition to the machine using a discourse of ethnic nativism. Once in power, however, the Klan leaders themselves succumbed to the institutions of machine politics, becoming simply one more corrupt faction. Middle-class whites then transferred their allegiance from the Klan to the downtown business leaders, who pushed through a series of reforms that effectively eliminated machine politics from city government.\nThese reforms produced a major break and reorientation in the relations between the local government and societal actors. Oakland shifted from a political terrain dominated by ethnicity to one more strongly defined by class power. Chapter 4 begins with the consolidation of a new regime, which I describe here as business managerialism. Led by Oakland Tribune publisher Joseph Knowland, the downtown elite intervened more or less directly in the control of Oakland's economic development, while the reformed city council maintained a middle-class \"caretaker\" government oriented toward low taxes and homeowner services. At the same time, the crisis of the Great Depression stimulated a return of working-class militancy, marked by the rise of unions affiliated with the CIO. During the '30s, however, organizational rivalry between the CIO and the older, larger AFL unions kept the working-class challenge in check, helping to preserve the power of the urban regime.\nIn the '40s, wartime industrialization brought a massive new influx of working-class population, socially isolating the business regime and creating the conditions for class polarization. In chapter 5, I analyze the events leading up to and during the General Strike, and the political mobilization that followed. In the General Strike, Oakland workers demonstrated an extraordinary class solidarity, allowing the unions to defend themselves successfully in a showdown with the downtown elite. The pursuit of democratic reform in city government, however, called for more complex alliances on a difficult terrain, and the unions' inability to bridge divisions of class and race, even within their own ranks, limited their ability to achieve broader institutional change.\nChapter 6 picks up the third case. By the early '50s, the downtown elites had weathered the postwar working-class challenge, and they began to pursue their own agenda of urban and regional redevelopment. This included major changes in housing, economic, and transportation infrastructures, administered by an array of new bureaucratic public authorities. Redevelopment led to the displacement of the growing yet politically excluded black population and to the dissatisfaction of white homeowners who opposed the movement of black residents into their neighborhoods. Political elites responded by adding separate layers of administrative social programs, largely funded by the federal government and premised on the principle of bureaucratic insulation. While offering opportunities, these programs also channeled black mobilization toward a parallel form of bureaucratic enfranchisement and reinforced the compartmentalization of black demands.\nThe failures of this form of incorporation helped drive the racial polarization of the late '60s, discussed in chapter 7. In particular, controversies surrounding the issues of unemployment and relations between police and the community formed the local context for the emergence of the black power movement. This took shape in several forms: in the rise of the Black Panther Party among black youth, in the radicalization of protest in the city's federal Community Action and Model Cities programs, and in the turn to demands for community control. Official resistance on the part of the city government to these pressures maintained the atmosphere of racial polarization in Oakland, setting the stage for the electoral campaigns of Bobby Seale for mayor and Elaine Brown for city councillor in 1973.\nThe final chapter recaps the dynamics that lead to social movement discontinuity, focusing on the problem of urban political community, and explores some of the theoretical implications of the results. I compare the experiences in Oakland with those in other American cities and reflect on the significance of the analysis for current debates on civic and political participation in the United States. Throughout the book, my concerns will be to understand not only the way things are, but how they can change.\nChallenged by Ku Klux Klan action in the '20s, labor protests culminating in a general strike in the '40s, and the rise of the civil rights and black power struggles of the '60s, Oakland, California, seems to encapsulate in one city the broad and varied sweep of urban social movements in twentieth-century America. Taking Oakland as a case study of urban politics and society in the United States, Chris Rhomberg examines the city's successive episodes of popular insurgency for what they can tell us about critical discontinuities in the American experience of urban political community.\nChris Rhomberg is Associate Professor of Sociology at Yale University.\n\u201cA book that all social movement scholars should read. . .It is an exemplar of what we ought to be doing.\u201d \u2014Michael Schwartz, University At Stony Brook Mobilization: An Int\u2019l Journal\n\"This sophisticated account of a remarkable city's coalitions and conflicts over half a century is an outstanding contribution to urban history and political analysis.

The procedure for demonstrating compliance with the Building Regulations for buildings other than dwellings is by calculating the annual energy use for a proposed building and comparing it with the energy use of a comparable 'notional' building. Both calculations make use of standard sets of data for different activity areas and call on common databases of construction and service elements. A similar process is used to produce a 'asset rating' in accordance with the EPBD. The NCM therefore comprises the underlying method plus the standard data sets.\nThe NCM allows the actual calculation to be carried out either by an approved simulation software or by a simplified tool based on a set of CEN standards. That tool has been developed for MHCLG by BRE and is called SBEM - Simplified Building Energy Model. It is accompanied by a basic user interface - iSBEM.\nIntroduction to SBEM\nSBEM is\na computer program that provides an analysis of a building's energy consumption. SBEM calculates monthly energy use and carbon dioxide emissions of a building given a description of the building geometry, construction, use and HVAC and lighting equipment. It was originally based on the Dutch methodology NEN 2916:1998 (Energy Performance of Non-Residential Buildings) and has since been modified to comply with current CEN Standards. Details of the calculation method, the algorithms used and the assumptions made are provided in the SBEM Technical Manual, available from the Download page.\nSBEM makes use of standard data contained in associated databases and available with other software.\nThe purpose of SBEM and its interface iSBEM is to produce consistent and reliable evaluations of energy use in non-domestic buildings for Building Regulations Compliance and for Building Energy Performance Certification purposes. Although it may assist the design process, it is not primarily a design tool. It does not calculate internal temperatures, for example.\nAs SBEM is a compliance procedure and not a design tool, if the performance of a particular feature is critical to the design, even if it can be represented in SBEM, it is prudent to use the most appropriate modelling tool for design purposes. In any case, SBEM should not be used for system sizing.\nIn line with revisions to Approved Document ADL2A and equivalent documents in the DAs, SBEM and iSBEM have been revised and updated a number of times to include additional functionality. The current version of the software can be used for demonstrating compliance with Part L2A in England and the equivalent regulations in other parts of the UK, and for generating Energy Performance Certificates.

        "raw_content": "The Morse Code of Journalism\nBenjamin Morse, former digital content director for Marvel Entertainment and future TEDx speaker, is transforming students into content creators.\nBenjamin Morse, a visiting professor of journalism, is helping create a digital content agency in the Greenspun School of Journalism. (Josh Hawkins/UNLV Creative Services)\nBy Afsha Bawany\n: Benjamin Morse will be a featured speaker at TedxUNLV on June 22, 2018, at the UNLV Judy Bayley Theatre. Tickets are now on sale.\nWhen your favorite superhero helps land you the job you\u2019ve wanted since elementary school, you may feel like a character in a comic book.\nBut that\u2019s exactly how Benjamin Morse\u2019s career unfolded in real life.\n\u201cI wrote an essay in the fifth-grade about what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote two things: become an NBA basketball player or work at Marvel Comics,\u201d said Morse, a visiting lecturer at the Hank Greenspun School of Journalism Studies.\nIn his junior year of college, Morse created the comics section of the website 411 Mania. His review of his favorite speedster superhero \u201cThe Flash\u201d piqued the interest of Geoff Johns, a DC Comics writer for the red-suited hero. They met up at San Diego\u2019s Comic-Con and that led to Morse\u2019s first paying job writing about comics for Wizard Magazine.\nFlash forward to 2007 when Morse landed a job at Marvel Entertainment. He spent 10 years running digital content for Marvel.com. He focused on increasing publicity for diverse superheroines and superheroes, promoted the growing Marvel movie industry, created social media content, and co-hosted the podcast \u201cThis Week in Marvel\u201d with Ryan Penagos, who was the co-creator and remains the co-host.\nWe talked to Morse about launching a new digital content agency for journalism students to advance their multimedia skills and why you may want to add comic books to your summer reading lists.\nWhat drew you to comic books as a kid?\nThis may sound corny \u2014 it was that idea of doing the right thing and following a moral code of ethics. It helped me subscribe to the way life ought to be. I grew up in 80\u2019s and there was stuff happening in politics. It was kind of nice to read a comic book and see that the good guys are eventually going to win \u2014 hopefully, they will win. I was the kid who wanted to see the good guys win and see the right thing happen.\nSounds like readings comics had some influence on your road to journalism.\nI always liked writing, getting to the truth of the matter. I love of the ethics of comic books and at the heart of every comic book is storytelling. Journalism is about exposing the truth, too. In both, you\u2019re trying to impart some lesson on the reader. You\u2019re collaborating with artists, and editors, and working on producing the content. As a journalism professor, those are the things I can impart \u2014 that team storytelling approach.\nTell us about the digital content agency you\u2019ve been working on at the journalism school.\nStudents are learning about what it takes to be a content creator. Since I\u2019ve been here, I\u2019ve worked with students who are creating written content, graphics, videos, learning about social media management, analytics, and advertising. We\u2019re collaborating with the journalism school\u2019s stations KUNV Radio and UNLV-TV to help clients in the Las Vegas Valley.\nStudents have worked with community clients including the Rotary Club of Green Valley and the United Way, as well as campus unit such as TedxUNLV, the Lee Business School, and College of Hospitality. That\u2019s what I love about the students. They are so enthusiastic and motivated to do things to for experience.\nPart of creating content is looking for new ways to tell a story. How have you embraced creativity in your career?\nMarvel has the most well-known characters. But some characters are 60 to 70 years old. Instead if doing just public relations and designs to buy comics, I thought \u201cLet\u2019s make it more fan-interactive, and turn the website into to an online magazine.\u201d\nYou\u2019re always looking for something new in journalism and you\u2019re looking to crack the surface and looking to do something people haven\u2019t done before. It\u2019s about getting creative. Someone could hand you a product to use on a social media platform, and you have to find a way to make it work.\nAt Marvel, we created a virtual community and I co-created the podcast, \u201cThis week in Marvel.\u201d It was hugely successful and on i-Tunes and ranked as one of the top 20. That was important to grow our social media, talk to fans, and get them involved. We had 320 episodes and never skipped a single one. That was recreating something that was lost.\nWhen I was a kid, you could talk with everyone in the store about a particular comic. The problem nowadays is that, while movies based on comics are successful, there is a kid who may see the \u201cIron Man\u201d cartoon, watch the movie, and buy the toy, and play the video game but never realize it\u2019s based on comic book.\nSo much of my character and who I am came from reading comics, so for people not read them is tragic.\nIf we\u2019re just starting to get into comics, what should we add to our summer reading lists?\nMarvels: a fully painted, four-issue limited edition that came out in 1994. It\u2019s about the Marvel universe with every character \u2014 Spider Man, Thor, Captain America. It\u2019s the required textbook for being a Marvel fan.\nX-Men: This is a comic about minorities, oppression. The heroes are mutants and hated and feared. They serve as an analogy for race relations and sexual orientation. There are so many parallels to today. As a kid, I got the sense that \u201cthis is about these people being different and doing the right thing.\u201d That was a big lesson. It\u2019s required reading and one of the best franchises.\nAfsha Bawany",

        "raw_content": "The Everytown for Gun Safety Scam Artists\nMark Walters \u2014 November 12, 2015\nI have been saying for some time now that the gun prohibitionists are unAmerican. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s being too harsh, do you? Not when we\u2019re talking about people who want to take constitutionally protected property, rights, and freedoms from their fellow Americans. To even suggest such a thing is unAmerican\u2014in my book, anyway.\nBut that\u2019s exactly what the unAmericans are doing.\nThe latest email from the Everytown for Gun Safety scam artists has reached a new low. Just when you think the unAmericans can\u2019t get any lower, they find a way to dig deeper than the day before. Now, right before my eyes, the email I received today blatantly calls for head \u201cconfiscation wanna be\u201d Obama himself to flat out ignore Congress and the American way and just use his pen to take away your rights. To the unAmericans, the Constitution be damned\u2026as long as it\u2019s something they don\u2019t like.\nTake a look at this from the Bloomberg money grubbers:\nIt\u2019s been almost three years since my mother was shot and killed. She was the principal of Sandy Hook School, gunned down along with 25 others on December 14, 2012.\nSandy Hook was one of the most devastating shootings in our nation\u2019s history, and I was appalled when Congress failed to act. That\u2019s why I\u2019m asking President Obama to step up and not let this anniversary go by without action on gun violence.\nThe President has the power to make a real difference without waiting on Congress, but he needs to hear from people like you to know he has the support for these major steps.\nAutomatically sign the petition calling on President Obama to take executive action to strengthen gun laws, close deadly loopholes, and save American lives.\nPresident Obama has gone to too many funerals, he\u2019s called too many families, he\u2019s recounted too many horrors. Enough is enough.\nThe President has the power to crack down on high-volume gun sellers and make them conduct background checks. He can close loopholes to keep guns away from domestic abusers. He can strengthen laws to keep guns away from schools, the places where our children learn and play. But he\u2019s running out of time.\nPresident Obama has said that congressional inaction on gun violence is the biggest disappointment of his presidency. But HE can act.\nSign the petition to the President and ask him to take executive action on gun violence before the Sandy Hook anniversary on December 14.\nThanks for lending your voice. It means so much to me.\nErica Lafferty\nSurvivor Engagement Manager\nDid you get through that without puking on yourself? I know, it\u2019s tough to read these things but read them you must. It\u2019s the surest way possible to know what the unAmericans are up to. The email subject line reads \u201cYes He Can,\u201d in reference to their misguided belief that a U.S. president can just flush the constitution down the toilet and sign anything he wants to make law all by himself.\nHow much more proof do you need that the unAmericans don\u2019t give a damn about \u201cgun safety?\u201d This isn\u2019t about murderers being caught or the root causes of crime (such as rampant liberalism). No\u2026this is about YOU and your guns getting in their way of enacting their unAmerican agenda..and fundraising off of the backs of dead Americans to do it.\nVile? Despicable? Reprehensible? Take your pick\u2026but one description that fits them for sure? UnAmerican.",

        "raw_content": "\u00bb Classical Studies\nClassical studies is a pluridisciplinary field which introduces students to the study of the ancient Greek and Roman worlds. It involves disciplines such as history, literature, religion, languages and linguistics, art history, archaeology, and philosophy and pertains to the study of wide areas of Europe, North Africa and Asia over several millennia (ca. 2000 B.C.700 A.D.).\nThe classical world was in essence Greek and Roman. Yet it was also a complex, heterogeneous, permeable, mixed and constantly evolving world in which the Greeks and the Romans have always been intertwined with other peoples and cultures. Classical studies at UTSC offer students both a thorough examination of the main features of the Greek and Roman civilizations and a substantial introduction to the other peoples and cultures which were part of or interacted with it.\nIn most courses the ancient written sources are studied in translation. Classical Studies is accessible, practical, and timely for students in any field and excellent preparation for those planning to study law. Students who intend to complete the minor program in Classical Studies should include CLAA04H3 & CLAA06H3 in their first-year course selection.\nCLAC02H3S: Selected Topics in Classical Civilization\nIn AD 79 Mount Vesuvius erupted, destroying the Roman city of Pompeii and the surrounding region, and preserving the remains under metres of volcanic ash to be excavated centuries later. This seminar will study early imperial Roman society and culture, and consider how this archaeological site has shaped the study of Roman social history and art. It will also examine the legacy of Pompeii in the public imagination, culminating in the Royal Ontario Museum\u2019s 2015 exhibition Pompeii, in the shadow of the volcano.\nAppointed Faculty",

        "raw_content": "Bringing Max (the piano) home a year or so ago was all about having a piano in the house for others to play in ensembles. But it seemed a shame to continue like that for so long without ever learning how to play it. So tonight I had my first ever piano lesson. Once I got past the fact that the book I'm starting out on is filled with cartoons and children's songs, I got down to the business of learning how and where to put my fingers, re-learning how to read bass clef, and getting used to new left-hand finger positions that seem totally backwards. By the end of the hour, muscles I never knew I had were sore.\nMy new friend down here in Houston is my teacher, and still is my friend after tonight's lessons. It was alot of fun, even if he almost smashed my fingers with the keyboard lid by accident (or so he says). I was playing \"Row Row Row Your Boat\" in two part harmony by the end of our lesson - in a manner of speaking. A huge accomplishment in my book. One interesting thing I noticed was that my right hand is just as stiff as it is with the bow on viola. Maybe this new adventure will help me learn to relax the hand and help in my viola playing. The one good thing I can say is that I don't come with any \"piano baggage\" that has to be un-taught. That is if you exclude some of my counting quirks and playing notes & rhythms that are in my head vs. what is printed. Maybe going back to the bare basics will help me overcome those quirks as well.\nI thought that my summer viol-a-thon was over, but no. There is still more to come. Next is playing in a pit orchestra for the play \"Oliver\", performing Handel Sonata for 2 violas at the Church with a harpsichord, then what I've been looking forward to since I moved down south - Interlochen!!!! The theme this year is the \"Magic of Wit\", though I'm still scratching my head over how Brahms can be remotely witty (several Brahms pieces are on the repetoire list this year). I'm looking forward to meeting up with Joel again and exchanging stories of our adventures.\nSo far, Houston has been treating me quite well. I found a good viola teacher, a new best friend (violist, stand partner, and piano teacher), and have become more musically active than ever before. There is not a day that goes by without music being a part of my daily life in some form or another. Though my hours of sleep have dimished significantly, I'm happier than ever being so involved in the local music scene. Maybe the opening fall season will be a little less hectic - or not.\nPlaying the piano is so much fun! I've only had a few lessons, ever, so I'm sure I have plenty of piano baggage, but I still love it. I think it's a lot easier to sound tolerable, sooner, on a piano than on a stringed instrument. Enjoy it!\nI agree with Karen, and so does Itzhak Perlman in \"Art of Violin,\" that it's much quicker to get tolerably good on the piano than on the violin. Are you up for some instant gratification? Enjoy.",

        "raw_content": "The all-new Audi R8 V10 plus Coup\u00e9 (2015 model) at the Launch at Le Castellet, France, on 4 November 2015\nAs a journalist in the motoring and motorsport industry, we often get invited to press events for the introduction of new manufacturer models. This involves either a day driving event or an overnight stay with driving the next day. As you can imagine, in our market, launches happen all over Europe and the UK, and I have been fortunate enough to have been invited along to some truly fantastic press launches. And this time around I would like to share some of my memorable Audi moments with you.\nThe entrance of Althorp House got an Audi make-over for the 2015 Audi Range Review press event\nA few launches stand out, such as the introduction of the Audi R8 V10 in Spain, a trip up to Scotland where severe flooding closed one of the testing routes in the hills. I had put my name down for the passenger ride with rally legend Hannu Mikkola, but, unfortunately, this had to be cancelled because some of the hillside and forest had slid down onto the road. On another occasion, an overnight stay in Althorp House, the family home of the late Lady Diana, was a very special memory.\nAudi rally legend, Hannu Mikkola, was the surprise guest at 2014 Audi TT launch in Scotland\nAnd still another great memory, was the drive through the hills of Austria (I was expecting Julie Andrews to come skipping across the fields at any moment), to the test route of the legendary Audi quattro, Turracher H\u00f6he. Our route that time also took us past the original birthplace of the Porsche 356, what a privilege! I couldn\u2019t get the coffee machine to work in my hotel room though, you needed to be a rocket scientist to work that one out \u2013 mind you, neither could the hotel staff\u2026\nPicture perfect, the Audi RS 3 pauses for a driver swap at the top of Turracher H\u00f6he during the press drive in Austria in 2011\nBelow is a collection of photographs from the many Audi press drives that I attended, or press cars that I have driven, between 2007 and 2015.

        "raw_content": "World Endurance Championship Action Hots Up\nRoll Out Test, Toyota Hybrid Racing, 7th-8th February 2013, Paul Ricard, France\nWith the opening round of the WEC taking place at Silverstone, Northamptonshire on the weekend of 12-14 April, the first shots have been fired by the big manufacturers. Toyota unveiled their new car on 19 February, the TS030 Hybrid, which naturally boasts improvements over the previous car, which may sound a bit low key, but considering their impressive performance in 2012 in the car\u2019s debut year, they will undoubtedly be a serious contender for the manufacturer\u2019s crown in 2013.\nEnthusiasts will remember that the team suffered a significant setback during testing at the beginning of last year which forced them to miss the first European round at Spa, making their Le Mans appearance in June the first public outing for the TS030. In the 24-Hour race they suffered a double retirement when Anthony Davidson was the victim of a terrible accident with a backmarker, and then their second car retired just after midnight with mechanical problems.\nHowever, the Toyota team arrived at Silverstone buoyed by the performance of their cars at Le Mans, and despite not having finished there, they knew their car had the legs. The race at Silverstone would prove them right, as the lone Toyota TS030 finished second, splitting the works Audis and announcing their intent to disrupt the rest of the season for the Ingolstadt camp. The next race, the 6-Hours of S\u00e3o Paulo saw Alexander Wurz and Nicolas Lapierre grabbing the top step of the podium for the first time for Toyota. The team was however just getting into its stride as at their home race, the 6-Hours of Fuji, Wurz and Lapierre scooped their second victory of the season, this time with the help of Kazuki Nakajima. The season could not have finished on a higher note for Toyota, as Alexander Wurz and Nicolas Lapierre took gold once again at the 6-Hours of Shanghai, giving Toyota three outright wins in their debut season, a truly remarkable achievement against the might of Ingolstadt.\nFor the 2013 season, Toyota has announced that they will be running a two-car team for the full season. In the #7 Toyota will be Alex Wurz, Nicolas Lapierre and Kazuki Nakajima (the same trio who won at Fuji in 2012), while the #8 car will be piloted by the extremely experienced combination of Anthony Davidson, St\u00e9phane Sarrazin and S\u00e9bastien Buemi.\nDetails of the new car are understandably thin on the ground at this stage, but Toyota has revealed that the 2013 TS030 car uses a revised version of the Toyota Racing hybrid system first used in 2012. The super capacitor-based system delivers 300hp of boost automatically, on top of the 530hp generated by a 3.4-litre, normally aspirated V8 petrol engine. Ahead of the new regulations due to be enforced in 2014, the team has fine-tuned the powertrain, chassis and aerodynamics to improve power, efficiency, management of component usage and reliability.\nThe car will be further developed at the rear, and so more changes will be seen in due course, while the driving position has been slightly modified to improve driver comfort. The 2013 car will not be racing at Silverstone, the team preferring to fine tune the car\u2019s details away from prying eyes, and according to a team spokesman, \u201cWe are confident the 2012 car gives us a good chance to win at Silverstone anyway.\u201d Toyota plan to do a further four tests before the Le Mans test day.\nAs more details become available, these will be revealed on our blog, so check back each week for updates.\nPorsche 911 RSR Sebring 2013 Test\nNews of the successful conclusion of the tests for the new 911 RSR (991) was announced by Stuttgart today (Friday 22 February). Testing of the new car has just been completed at the Sebring International Raceway, Florida, USA and in a statement Porsche said that the car was now ready for its debut in the WEC 6-Hour race at Silverstone on April 14. Sharing driving duties at Sebring were Porsche works drivers Richard Lietz and Patrick Pilet.\nLietz contests the WEC including Le Mans with Marc Lieb at the wheel of the #92 911 RSR while Patrick Pilet joins forces with Joerg Bergmeister in the #91 car. At the first two WEC rounds in Silverstone and Spa as well as at Le Mans, they will be backed up by factory drivers Romain Dumas (#92) and Timo Bernhard (#91).\n\u201cWe are very pleased with how the testing has gone so far,\u201d said Porsche\u2019s Head of Motorsport Hartmut Kristen. \u201cOur goal is to be well prepared for the challenges of the very strong GTE class in the WEC and at Le Mans. The circuit in Sebring is very well suited to put a new vehicle through some demanding trials. For this reason, a test in Sebring is a very good rehearsal for one of the toughest races of all, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Until the season kicks off in Silverstone, we will conduct some final tests on other race tracks so that our new 911 RSR is well and truly ready for the World Endurance Championship season.\u201d\nCategories: Car Racing Tags: Porsche 911 RSR, Toyota Hybrid Racing, WEC",

        "raw_content": "The Lake Charles Regional Airport recently opened its new $28 million Lake Charles Regional Airport Terminal. The new 45,000 square foot terminal building offers passenger conveniences like second floor passenger loading, a gift shop, a caf\u00e9 and state-of-the-art baggage claim facilities. These new features plus many more will mean safer and more efficient movement of travelers into and out of the area.\nThe building was designed in the Louisiana Colonial style with columns and balconies and the selected finishes in the interior of the building lend a warm and timeless character to the building. The colors used in the concession area are reminiscent of Mardi Gras.\nAnother change brought on in the summer of 2009 was the return of American Eagle to the area. In mid-June American Airlines began servicing the area with two flights into and out of Dallas/Fort Worth.\nThe American Eagle service is now being offered in addition to the already existing Continental Express service to Houston. With both airlines on board, travelers now can make their way to Southwest Louisiana from literally anywhere in the world.\nThe excitement of having a choice of airlines is not lost on tourism. Service from Houston and now Dallas allows the sales team at the bureau to market to a larger, more diverse audience, attracting new business and leisure travelers to the area.\nFor more information on the Lake Charles Regional Airport, log onto www.flylakecharles.com.\n300 Airport Service Road / Lake Charles LA 70607",

        "raw_content": "Insurgency Takes Economic, Personal Tolls in E. Ukraine\nA young couple walks near a barricade outside the regional administration building in Ukraine's eastern city of Donetsk, occupied by pro-Russia insurgents, on May 14, 2014.\nDONETSK \u2014 At first glance eastern Ukraine is continuing to function.\nBuses and trams run on time. The daily commute in the city of Donetsk is as busy as ever as workers clock in at factories, offices and stores.\nMunicipal workers tend to public gardens and the grounds of government buildings, cleaning up winter debris and planting brightly colored spring flowers and saplings.\nBut beneath the surface, anxiety is mounting for small businesspeople and workers. The pro-Russian separatist insurgency roiling east Ukraine is taking its toll.\nMany locals fear a prolonged a crisis will lead to them losing their employment. Some store and restaurant owners and hoteliers are laying off workers. Some businesses are closing.\nCaf\u00e9 owner Galina, 49, a mother of two, laid off five workers in the flashpoint town of Slovyansk, 100 kilometers north of Donetsk.\nShe shuttered the caf\u00e9 at a once-busy junction on a highway linking Donetsk region with Ukraine\u2019s second-largest city, Kharkiv.\n\u201cIt used to be very busy here and there was a lot of traffic coming through, but now with the recent fighting and all the checkpoints hardly anyone is traveling,\u201d she said. \u201cThe staff can at least get state benefits.\u201d\nHer husband\u2019s advertising business is suffering also with little new work coming in.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t know what to do, whether to stay or leave,\u201d she said. \u201cMany people are leaving at least for a temporary period; they are scared. But I have family here and I don\u2019t want to leave them.\u201d\nGalina is too frightened to travel far beyond Slovyansk and has not visited an aunt living in a smaller town 20 kilometers away.\nThe loss of work and the threat to jobs is starting to trigger a backlash from workers.\n\u2018Up in the air\u2019\nLast week, thousands of steel workers and miners started to mount their own patrols in the city of Mariupol and in Donetsk and to dismantle separatist barricades and checkpoints. The workers say they want to establish law and order on the region\u2019s streets.\nThey appear to have been encouraged to do so by their boss, Ukraine\u2019s richest oligarch, Rinat Akhmetov, who has thrown his considerable political weight behind the interim government in Kyiv.\nIn towns strongly in the grip of insurgents, schools and courts have shuttered leaving kids to lose precious class-time and legal disputes to go unsettled.\n\u201cIt is very stressful,\u201d said Slovyansk lawyer Vladimir.\nWith the court in the town of 130,000 closed and rebels occupying the town hall, commercial and land disputes, and divorces are on hold.\nIt\u2019s adding to local frustration especially among mercantile and professional townsfolk. Vladimir and his lawyer wife have had no work for two months.\n\u201cEverything is up in the air,\u201d said the 49-year-old lawyer.\nOnly two of the 25 banks in Slovyansk are functioning.\nThere are long lines to withdraw cash from the ATMs of the two banks still operating. The elderly have had a challenge to secure their state pensions, which are still being paid via banks by the government in Kyiv.\n\u2018I can\u2019t leave\u2019\nIn Slovyansk, people are cautious about complaining or voicing their frustrations publicly.\nThere is an air of menace in the town, which has become the epicenter of the pro-Russian insurgency.\nWith armed gunmen patrolling the streets, and the town encircled both by separatist and government-controlled checkpoints, townspeople unhappy with the insurgency are keeping mostly quiet.\nThe town\u2019s self-proclaimed \u201cpeople\u2019s mayor,\u201d former Russian soldier Vyacheslav Ponomaryov, has urged locals to report anyone behaving suspiciously, including anyone overheard speaking Ukrainian.\nHis gunmen have abducted dozens, including local officials and pro-unity activists.\nThe body of a town councilor from the nearby town of Horlivka, 42-year-old policeman-turned-politician Volodymyr Rybak, turned up in a river near Slovyansk in April.\nA critic of the insurgency, he had been badly beaten and stabbed but probably was dumped still alive into the Torets river.\nIn Donetsk, there has been a steady stream of people leaving, fearing increased violence or the arrival of Russian soldiers massed on the border.\nBut some say they can\u2019t.\n\u201cI can\u2019t leave,\u201d said Sergey Layrih, the franchise holder of a rental car business. \u201cBut my wife and daughter are going to Kyiv to stay with her parents for a couple of weeks to see if things improve here.\nPutin Orders Troops Away From Ukraine Border\nUnrest Continues as Ukraine Preps for Presidential Vote\nAnger But Not Separatism in Odessa",

        "title": "Barry Asks Shift in Utilities Tax Break - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Barry Asks Shift in Utilities Tax Break\nBy Jack Eisen\nThe Barry administration asked the D.C. City Council yesterday to enact legislation that would result in the federal government and foreign embassies paying larger utility bills to override a benefit they now enjoy through exemption from payment of sales taxes.\nIf the measure is enacted, residential customers of the city's gas, electric and telephone companies would benefit from modest reductions in their home utility bills, a city tax official said.\nThe legislation proposed to the Council by Mayor Marion Barry would remove the 5 percent sales tax now collected from residential and business customers -- but not the U.S. and foreign governments -- on their utility bills.\nIn its place, the city would increase the tax it now collects on the gross receipts of the gas and electric companies from 6 percent to 9 percent and on the telephone company from 6 percent to 7.1 percent. The lower telephone rate would be imposed because taxes cover telephone calls out of the city as well as on local calls, while all the taxable business of the other companies is done entirely in the city.\nCarolyn L. Smith, acting director of the D.C. Finance and Revenue Department, testified at a hearing that private customers who now pay the sales tax would get a slight reduction in their bills. She said the federal and D.C. governments, foreign embassies and other organizations now exempted from the sales tax would get an increase.\nThe utility sales tax exemptions now amount to sales of slightly more than $300 million a year. If the exempt customers could be taxed at the 5 percent sales tax rate the mayor now wants to drop, the city would receive $15 million a year in added revenue.\nEdward Meyers, special assistant to Smith, estimated that if the bill were enacted, the gas and electric costs of residential customers would drop by 2 percent and those of telephone customers would drop by 3.9 percent.\nFor an average year-round city electric bill of $23 a month, as estimated by the Potomac Electric Power Company, the saving would by 46 cents.\nSmith told the council's Finance and Revenue committee that the revamped tax proposal would not change the amount of money -- about $26.5 million -- the city collects each year in taxes on utilities, except that it would get a $3.5 million windfall the first year because of a change in collection schedules.\nBarry wrote the council that he proposed the change to make the city's tax program more equitable. The city's Tax Revision Commision in 1977 recommended a similar change, but called for an increase in the rate of the gross receipts tax to 11 percent, bringing in $12 million more revenue.\nWinesses representing the utility companies did not oppose the bill. But David Oliver, assistant comptroller of Pepco, noted that his company would have to petition for a rate increase to cover the cost of the higher gross receipts tax.\nBrian Lederer, People's Counsel of the D.C. Public Service Commission, said no rate increase would be needed if he gross receipts tax were imposed like the sales tax as a separate item on each customer's utility bill.",

        "raw_content": "Right-wing Le Pen claims victory alongside centrist Macron for French presidential runoff, with E.U. future at stake\nPARIS \u2014 French voters on Sunday rejected the two political parties that dominated France\u2019s post-World War II political life, pitting an anti-immigrant firebrand against an unconventional centrist in a presidential election that could determine the future of the European Union and France\u2019s place in the world.\nBy picking the pro-E.U. former economy minister Emmanuel Macron and National Front leader Marine Le\u2009Pen to advance to the decisive May 7 runoff, French citizens set up a stark choice. Now there will be a battle between a contender who wants to seal France tight against the tides of globalization and another who seeks to strip away even more barriers with the rest of the world.\nThe victor could determine whether the international alliances that formed the backbone of the West after World War II will strengthen or be shattered by the force of nationalism. Le\u2009Pen has said she will seek to pull France out of the European Union, a move many leaders on the continent think would doom the 28-nation bloc; she also said she would rekindle relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin after years of strife between Russia and the West. Macron has called for a more muscular European Union in which Europe\u2019s richest nations would do more to prop up their poorer neighbors.\n[WorldViews: What you need to know about the French election]\nIf Le\u2009Pen wins, she will continue a global string of ballot-box revolutions that began last year with the British decision to leave the European Union and continued with the election of Donald Trump as U.S. president. With her fierce anti-immigration agenda and her vow to keep France for the French, she could be a Gallic counterpart to President Trump. But if Macron triumphs \u2014 and polls suggest he will, by a 24 percentage point margin \u2014 it would be a further barrier to transatlantic disruptions, at least for now, after Dutch voters rejected a far-right leader in March elections.\nAt the jubilant Macron rally in Paris, the centrist candidate who was Socialist President Fran\u00e7ois Hollande\u2019s economy minister told his supporters France would prosper in a revitalized European Union.\n\u201cI\u2019ve heard the anger, the fears of the French people, their fear of change,\u201d the 39-year-old Macron said, winking at his cheering audience. \u201cI want to be the president of all patriots against the nationalist threat.\u201d\n[A youth revolt in France boosts the far right]\nAt Le\u2009Pen\u2019s rally in Henin-Beaumont, a northern French town hit hard by factory closures, the modest assortment of soft drinks and snacks gave it more the feeling of a country fair than the celebration of an ascendant presidential campaign \u2014 exactly the everyman image Le\u2009Pen has sought to project.\n\u201cWhat is at stake in this election is a referendum for or against lawless globalization,\u201d Le\u2009Pen told the cheering crowd. \u201cEither you choose in favor of a total lack of rules, without borders, with unlawful competition, the free circulation of terrorists, or you make the choice of a France that protects.\nThe vote came after a turbulent campaign in which longtime pillars of France\u2019s political establishment were either rejected by voters or discredited by scandal. Hollande, the most unpopular of all postwar French presidents, said he would not seek reelection. His most prominent Socialist successor lost to a primary challenger. So did the former center-right president, Nicolas Sarkozy. The early front-runner in the race, Fran\u00e7ois Fillon, a right-wing challenger who sought a Margaret Thatcher-style overhaul of France\u2019s economy, fell prey to a nepotism scandal.\nSee photos of French citizens voting for their new president\nCentrist Emmanuel Macron and far-right leader Marine Le Pen qualify to move on to the second round on May 7th.\nIn a primary round of voting, French voters selected centrist Emmanuel Macron and far-right leader Marine Le Pen to move to the election\u2019s final stage on May 7. The results could shape the future of the European Union.\nA woman walks past electoral campaign posters on her way to a polling station in Villefranche-de-Lauragais near Toulouse during the first round of the French presidential election.

Le\u2009Pen followed with 21.5\u2009percent.\nMany voters said they were opting for the least bad of an unpalatable slate of options.\n\u201cI want nobody, and it\u2019s very complicated. I just don\u2019t want to see the extremes,\u201d said Emma Lacour, 42, who voted Sunday in the upscale Saint-Cloud suburb of Paris, where conservatives usually dominate. \u201cI decided two minutes ago, and I\u2019m not very happy,\u201d said Lacour, who was too dispirited to say whom she picked as she walked out of the ornate 19th-century city hall that held the voting station.\nThursday\u2019s attack on police officers patrolling Paris\u2019s glittering Champs-Elysees boulevard was the final, bloody exclamation point in a campaign that often revolved around fears of terrorism and immigrants. One officer died and two were wounded by a gunman who pledged loyalty to the Islamic State.\n[France\u2019s terrorism problem divided the country. The election could make it worse.]\nFilled with fresh worries about security, voters may have been drawn by Le\u2009Pen\u2019s growling message about refugees and terror suspects. Macron, a newcomer who is far more conversant with boardrooms than he is with situation rooms, has sought to boost his security bona fides.\nA former investment banker and a product of France\u2019s elite educational institutions, he has described himself as a candidate of neither the left nor the right, and he has never held an elected office. His agenda marries social liberalism with proposals that would dilute France\u2019s traditionally robust protections for workers. And \u2014 despite prevailing winds that make pro-E.U. sentiment an unlikely campaign strategy \u2014 he has embraced the union and said he wants to make it stronger.\n\u201cI\u2019m hoping for the renewal of the French political scene,\u201d said Catherine Grevelink, 56, who oversees legal issues at a bank and voted for Macron in Saint-Cloud. \u201cHe\u2019s very intelligent. Now we have to see how this comes out as he governs, if he is president.\u201d\nEither of the winning candidates would face questions about governing, since neither has a party structure in France\u2019s Parliament. Macron\u2019s movement is too new to have any lawmakers, and Le\u2009Pen would face steep challenges in capturing a majority of the National Assembly in elections scheduled for June 11.\nThat could potentially be a brake to her more ambitious plans, such as taking France out of the European Union. E.U. membership is enshrined in the constitution, and any change would require approval in both houses of Parliament.\nSunday\u2019s result is a vindication of Le\u2009Pen\u2019s years-long strategy to destigmatize her party after decades in which it lurked on France\u2019s far-right fringe. Her father notoriously described the Nazi gas chambers as \u201ca detail\u201d of World War II. But Le\u2009Pen, 48, sought to make inroads among France\u2019s large Jewish community and also depicted herself as the single true defender of French workers.\n\u201cThe laws are there already, but no one applies them, as the attack in Paris showed,\u201d said Martine Le Roy, 62, a retired insurance worker from Henin-Beaumont. She said she was supporting the anti-immigrant, hard-line Le\u2009Pen because she was worried about security.\nEven as Macron and Le\u2009Pen advanced to the next round, the sheer uncertainty in the lead-up to Sunday\u2019s vote was a measure of the unmooring of French political life.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve had two consecutive presidents, Nicolas Sarkozy and Fran\u00e7ois Hollande, very different orientations, very different policies, but still we have the same economic problems,\u201d said Bruno Cautr\u00e8s, who studies voting behavior at the Center for Political Research at Sciences Po in Paris. \u201cIt has been one of the best arguments of Marine Le\u2009Pen: \u2018Why not me?\u2019\u2009\u201d\nAlthough most opinion polls suggest that Macron would win at least 60\u2009percent of a head-to-head vote against Le\u2009Pen, an unforeseeable event \u2014 such as a large-scale terrorist attack \u2014 could shift votes in Le\u2009Pen\u2019s direction. And the far-left candidate, Jean-Luc M\u00e9lenchon, who electrified crowds of young voters with his soak-the-rich message, notably held back Sunday from asking his supporters to vote for Macron in the runoff, raising the prospect that some of his boosters \u2014 19.6\u2009percent of Sunday\u2019s voters \u2014 could stay home or even vote for Le\u2009Pen. Backers of other candidates could also swing to Le\u2009Pen.\nIf Le\u2009Pen ultimately falls to Macron, she will still have taken the far-right further than any prior candidate in one of Europe\u2019s pillar nations. If her rival is elected but fails to live up to expectations, she could seize the presidency in the next election in five years, analysts said.\n\u201cIf she does well, she could be even stronger in 2022,\u201d said Jean-Yves Camus, an expert on the French far right at the French Institute for International and Strategic Affairs.\nMcAuley reported from Henin-Beaumont.

        "title": "Michael Taylor's painting Boy with Apple to play a central role in Wes Anderson's new film, The Grand Budapest Hotel. - Waterhouse & Dodd",
        "raw_content": "Michael Taylor, an artist who we have worked with for almost 10 years and who has held two successful solo exhibitions with us, is currently enjoyed a rather raised profile due to his collaboration with the film director Wes Anderson. Michael is no stranger to high profile exhibitions. Four of his paintings are in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery after all. But a new work (Boy with Apple) plays a central part in Anderson major new film, The Grand Budapest Hotel. Here Michael explains the process of producing the artwork and something of the paintings role in the film.\nFilm director Wes Anderson approached me in 2012 to paint a fictional Renaissance portrait to be titled 'Boy with Apple' for his next film The Grand Budapest Hotel. The plot pivots around the theft and recovery of a priceless portrait by Renaissance master Johannes Van Hoytl. Intrigued by the script and surprised to hear that he intended to commission a real portrait, I decided to come onboard. For inspiration Wes bombarded me with a bewildering selection of images by Bronzino, 17th Century Dutch painters, Durers, all kinds of stuff, even some Tudor portraits. I found this terribly confusing at first until I realized that each image contained some required element that had to be worked into the painting. He clearly knew exactly what he wanted; it was just that nothing quite like it yet existed. It was an irresistible challenge.\nEd Munro, a stage school student, was cast as the sitter. Costumes were chosen and props hired (I provided the apple) and we started what was to be many weeks of work in a suitably atmospheric Jacobean house near my Dorset home. Wes had very bravely left me alone to work on the painting for a couple of months, but as the start of filming approached we began the final work on it together. Collaborating on a picture was new territory to me, but his extraordinary attention to detail (\u201c the little bit of paper on the wall?\u2026..yes, yes we must have the little bit of paper!\u201d), good humoured patience and faith in his script somehow made it all come out right.\nThe film has garnered very favourable reviews, as has the painting. Jonathan Jones, writing in the Guardian, dedicated a whole column to the painting and its context. The article may be viewed by clicking this link:\nhttp://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2014/mar/07/grand-budapest-hotel-boy-with-apple\nFor more information about Michael's work and available paintings, please contact Jamie Anderson at jamie@waterhousedodd.com. The Grand Hotel Budapest, starring Ralph Fiennes, is now on general release across the UK.",

        "title": "Remembering John McCain's Unapologetic Message To America | Cognoscenti",
        "raw_content": "Remembering John McCain's Unapologetic Message To America\nSen. John McCain, R-Ariz. speaks at a rally outside Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla., Monday, Nov. 3, 2008. (Carolyn Kaster/AP\nThe Roman Senator Seneca once wrote, \u201csometimes even to live is an act of courage.\u201d\nFew people would appreciate the truth of that statement more than the late Senator John McCain.\nIn 1967, McCain, then a 31-year-old navy pilot, was shot down over Vietnam. The force from his A-4 Skyhawk\u2019s ejection seat broke his right leg and both arms, knocking him unconscious. He came to as he landed in a lake and escaped drowning only by managing to activate his life preserver with his teeth. The North Vietnamese soldiers who pulled him ashore shattered McCain\u2019s right shoulder with the butt of a rifle and bayonetted him in the abdomen and foot before taking him to series of prison camps in which he would spend the next five years being tortured and refusing early release.\nMcCain, who died Saturday at 81 after a battle with brain cancer, was \u2014 like so many in his political generation \u2014 a product of Vietnam. Permanently disabled, the senator\u2019s three-plus decade political career was inexorably influenced by his time as a prisoner of war and yet defined by an unshakeable faith in American exceptionalism.\nJohn McCain is administered to in a Hanoi, Vietnam hospital as a prisoner of war in the fall of 1967. (AP)\nOne of McCain\u2019s final heresies against the Republican establishment, his opposition to the nomination of Gina Haspel as CIA director for the interrogation techniques she oversaw during the Bush Administration, stemmed directly from his experience as a POW. \u201c[Haspel\u2019s] refusal to acknowledge torture\u2019s immorality is disqualifying,\u201d McCain said in a statement.\nFor the apostasy of speaking out against torture (a subject on which he could rightly claim to be the most qualified member of Congress to have an opinion) McCain was subjected to a deluge of indignities in the public square and behind closed doors. It is a telling commentary on how much the Republican Party has changed that the consistently conservative McCain was considered something of a maverick.\nLike all politicians (or human beings for that matter) McCain\u2019s legacy is mixed. Perhaps his signature legislative achievement, the McCain-Feingold campaign reform law, feels like a na\u00efve relic of a bygone era in the age of Citizen\u2019s United. His nomination of the glaringly unqualified Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate in 2008 (a decision he later regretted) felt like a play to the basest elements of our national politics.\nSen. John McCain, right, is joined by Gov. Sarah Palin, R-Alaska, during a rally with supporters on election night in Phoenix, Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2008. (Chris Carlson/AP)\nAlong with the legacies of the majority of legislators from his time, McCain\u2019s must contend with the blemish of the Iraq War. Unlike the leader of his own party, however, McCain had no illusions about combat. \u201cWar is wretched beyond description, and only a fool or a fraud could sentimentalize its cruel reality,\" he said in a 1999 speech to the American Red Cross.\nMcCain was no chickenhawk. The late senator was among the vanishingly small percentage of national politicians to have children in uniform. His son Jack is a navy helicopter pilot; his son Jimmy, a Marine; and his daughter-in-law Renee, an air force reservist. Though he never said it publically, matters of state were unavoidably personal to a man whose family literally had \u201cskin in the game.\u201d\nLiberals and libertarians often derided McCain\u2019s faith in the indispensability of American power and rightly pointed to him as a key member of the bipartisan cabal that involved the United States in so many ill-conceived overseas adventures. But McCain\u2019s devotion to American exceptionalism was about more than a commitment to force of arms. His was tied to a belief that this country should endeavor to be worthy of its mantle of global leadership and he was quick to point out when he felt our leaders fell short.\nI will most remember John McCain as a champion of norms and decency in our increasingly noxious political environment. At his best, he was a manifestation of our better angels, famously interrupting a bigoted rant from a woman at town hall on the 2008 campaign trail in defense of his opponent.\nMcCain\u2019s final years will be remembered for his animus towards the Trump administration. In a time when the majority of his party stayed silent in the face of the president\u2019s toxic rhetoric, McCain sparred with Trump over refugees, the treatment of gold star families, and the ceaseless stream of falsehoods and attacks on the press that continue to pour out of Pennsylvania Avenue.\nIn some ways it feels disheartening to think that standing up for honesty in politics or the parents of a fallen American soldier should be so rare in a major American party that they warrant commendation. But in our particular political moment, McCain\u2019s was an indispensable voice of dissent from the right. His moral courage should serve as an example for those in the party of Abraham Lincoln who still view America as an ideal to be defended rather than a vehicle for self-aggrandizement and profit.\nWe are asleep in our echo chambers, where our views are always affirmed and information that contradicts them is always fake.\nWith Sen. McCain\u2019s death, the country has lost one of the most tireless advocates for its soul. But the words of a prophet always have more salience after he has passed. America would do well to heed those words in the coming years. In a speech to his alma mater in 2017, McCain warned the midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy:\n\u201cWe are asleep in our echo chambers, where our views are always affirmed and information that contradicts them is always fake. We are asleep in our polarized politics, which exaggerates our differences, looks for scapegoats instead of answers, and insists we get all our way all the time from a system of government based on compromise, principled cooperation and restraint. It\u2019s time to wake up.\u201d\nAlso by Andrew Carleen: 'A Bridge To A Not-So-Distant Past': An Appreciation Of John McCain\nLaura McTaggart: Does Being A POW Make You A Hero?\nAndrew Carleen Cognoscenti contributor\nAndrew Carleen is a former public affairs officer in the U.S. Navy who lives in Quincy, Massachusetts.",

        "raw_content": "Home/Archives/In-depth: a Look at the History of WGM\nby Phyllis Waggoner\nThe Weavers Guild of Minnesota (WGM) has long been a presence in the regional and national creative arts community. It is one of the oldest and largest weavers guilds in the country, and the only weavers guild that is a weaving school.\nWhen the WPA/Federal Arts Project christened the Walker Art Center in 1940, Hilma Berglund, weaving instructor at the University of Minnesota, saw an opportunity to join in the movement to support the Arts communities. With the help of WAC education director, Leroy Turner, invitations were mailed to 26 persons who had expressed interest in forming a weavers guild, on February 15, 1940, sixteen weaving enthusiasts showed up. They chose a name, voted Miss Berglund temporary chairman, made plans to draft a constitution and viewed a weaving exhibit borrowed from the Seattle Weavers Guild. Less than a month later, the first official meeting of the Twin Cities Weavers Guild* convened. The constitution was adopted which called for election of officers in May; President: Hilma Berglund, Vice President and Program Chair: Mrs. Linwood Downs, Recording Secretary and Publicity Chair: Mrs. Elinor Minton and Librarian: Florence Willets. The annual membership fee would be $.50. Later in May of 1940, the Guild held its first workshop led by famed weaver/author/teacher, Mary Meigs Atwater.\nThe Minnesota State Fair invited the Guild to exhibit and demonstrate in the Creative Activities building in 1952, and it has continued to be a favorite community outreach to this day. In 1955, after many nomadic years of carting its library to various meeting venues, the Guild found a permanent location at the Minneapolis YWCA. Since then it has moved four times, today it is housed at the Textile Center, where the combined library of the Weavers Guild and the TC guilds is the largest Textile Library in the country. The three WGM classrooms contain a wide range of looms and spinning equipment as well as yarn and books for sale.\nThe story of the Weavers Guild of Minnesota and its mission statement Preserving and Advancing the Arts of Weaving, Spinning and Dyeing is a strong affirmation of the founders vision.",

        "raw_content": "What is Iatrogenesis?\nLatrogenesis is medical act that harms one's health which may result in a lawsuit.\nMedical errors and poor medical procedures can lead to iatrogeneiss.\nIatrogenesis refers to harm to health caused by medical treatment or medical personnel. Causes include negligence, improper sanitation, medical error, poor medical procedures, lack of medical information, misdiagnosis, adverse effects of drugs, and drug interactions. Health problems and symptoms caused by iatrogenesis are called iatrogenic artifacts. Historically, iatrogenesis was a major cause of mortality due to the poor sanitation of doctors and their ignorance of the germ theory of medicine. This has been greatly alleviated in modern times, but iatrogenesis remains a major cause of illness and death.\nSome iatrogenesis is the expected but undesirable result of treatment. In the case of drugs, this is called adverse drug reaction. Many drugs have significant side effects and some are only effective in doses high enough to be toxic to humans. The chemicals used in chemotherapy are especially damaging to cancerous cells, but they damage healthy tissue, as well, and some are themselves carcinogenic.\nOther adverse effects from drugs are the result of medical error. Doctors may prescribe the wrong drugs or incorrect dosages. Treating a patient with multiple drugs simultaneously, called polypharmacy, can result in dangerous drug interactions if the doctor and pharmacist are not careful about what drugs are given together. Iatrogenic illness can even be caused by poor penmanship, as seen in cases where patients have been given the wrong drugs by pharmacists due to the illegible handwriting of the prescribing doctor.\nIatrogenesis can be caused by the error or negligence of medical professionals in other ways. Mistakes in diagnosis can result in unnecessary medical procedures or in patients being given unnecessary drugs that might have serious side effects. Iatrogenesis can be caused by surgical errors, such as performing a procedure on the wrong patient, performing a procedure incorrectly, operating on the wrong part of the body, or leaving an object, such as a surgical sponge, inside the patient.\nHospital patients that are left lying in the same position for too long can develop pressure ulcers, better known as bedsores, which can cause serious injury and lead to potentially lethal infections. Medical errors can lead to what is called a cascade effect. This effect is where an initial mistake in diagnosis or treatment causes health problems or the appearance of health problems that lead to additional medical procedures that in turn cause further damage to the patient's health.\nSome iatrogenesis is psychological in origin. Much like when the health of a patient who is given a placebo sometimes improves because of the patient's belief that the placebo is real medicine, patients may actually suffer symptoms of illnesses and disorders they don't have because their doctor has convinced them that they are afflicted by it due to a diagnostic error. Iatrogenic artifacts also include \"diseases\" created by and diagnosed by doctors that do not actually exist naturally, such as \"hystero-epilepsy,\" and are instead the product of mistaken beliefs about causation or how the body works, or of the doctor's cultural environment. Due to the power of suggestion, this can result in seemingly genuine cases of nonexistent diseases and disorders.\nWhat are Adverse Side Effects?\nWhat is an Adverse Reaction?\nWhat is Idiopathic?\nWhat are Some Different Kinds of Brain Damage?",

        "raw_content": "Rush Limbaugh's 'privilege': Declaration, Constitution\nNation recognizes source of freedom, 'And that's God'\nThe socialist congresswoman from New York, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, was once again in the headlines Friday, this time for saying her \u201cprivilege\u201d is that she was born a \u201ccisgendered woman.\u201d\nShe\u2019s also claimed the world will end in 12 years if global warming isn\u2019t handled, that President Trump is a racist, she will \u201crun train\u201d in Congress and her campaign was something akin to the moon landing.\nHer comment Friday got the attention of talk-radio show host Rush Limbaugh, who took only seconds to put her in her place.\n\u201cWell, I\u2019ll tell you what my privilege is, Cortez. My privilege is being an American. My privilege is being born in the United States of America. My privilege flows from the two the greatest political documents ever written: the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. My privilege was to be born in a country that acknowledges the origins of my freedom and liberty and my right to pursue happiness. And that\u2019s God,\u201d he said.\nFox News reported Ocasio Cortez boasted of never having to know the \u201ctrauma\u201d of being transgender.\n\u201cAlmost every single person in this country can acknowledge some privilege of some type, you know?\u201d Ocasio-Cortez said. \u201cI\u2019m a cisgendered woman. You know, I will never know the trauma of feeling like I\u2019m not born in the right body. And that, that is a privilege that I have \u2013 a no matter how poor my family was when I was born.\u201d\nOnline dictionaries explain that \u201ccisgender\u201d is having a gender identity that matches the person\u2019s sex.\nLimbaugh said, \u201cThere is no other country on earth where this privilege extends to everybody who is born in the United States.\n\u201cMy privilege is not exclusive. You have this privilege, too, Cortez. And all of your other bigender, cisgender, nesgender, ifgender, whatever, all the rest of you out there, you have the same privilege. Just you don\u2019t see it as a privilege. You see it as an obstacle or as an unfairness, racism, bigotry, sexism, homophobia, but I look at it as a privilege to be born in the United States of America. I don\u2019t need much more than that, at least given to me.\u201d\nGillette just 'cut own throat' with man-hating ad",

        "raw_content": "When Did The Bahamas Gain Independence From The United Kingdom?\nThe Bahamas gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1973.\nThe Bahamian Parliament in Nassau, Bahamas.\nThe Commonwealth of the Bahamas is located within the Lucayan Archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean. The Bahamas consists of about 700 islands, islets, and cays, which cover a total area of 180,000 square miles. The state\u2019s capital is Nassau, and is located on New Providence Island. Columbus first landed on the island in 1492, which was inhabited by the Lucayan people. The Spanish did not colonize or lay claim to the Bahamas, but shipped thousands of slaves from the Bahamas to Spanish colonies. In 1513, the islands of the Bahamas were deserted until the English colonists migrated from Bermuda to the Bahamas in 1648. In 1718, the British banned piracy along the coast of the Bahamas and declared it a British crown colony. The crown settled American loyalists on the island after the American War of Independence, and the settlers established large plantations and shipped African slaves to work on farms. The British abolished the slave trade in 1807, and by 1834 the island was free of slavery, and later thousands of former slaves from the United States and other islands migrated to the Bahamas. Today, about 90% of the population is of African descent. On July 10, 1973, the Bahamas declared independence, but remained part of the Commonwealth of Nations, and retained the British monarch as the head of state.\nThe road to independence in the Bahamas began after World War II. In the 1950s, political parties were formed, and in 1964 the British parliament declared the islands as self-governing. As a result, Sir Roland Symonette became the first premier. On 7 January 1964, a new constitution that granted the island autonomy was adopted. Lynden Pindling became the first native premier of Bahamas in 1967. In 1968, the position of prime minister replaced the premier, and a year later Pindling proclaimed that the country would seek independence from Britain. In the same year, the country adopted a new constitution for the second time. The British House of Lords voted to grant Bahamas independence, and on July 10, 1973, the Bahamas became fully independent and immediately joined the Commonwealth of Nations. A month later it joined the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, and became a member of the United Nations in September 1973.\nAs an independent state, Britain no longer has an active role in governing the country. The state established a national flag, national anthem, and other state symbols. On the 10th of July, the country celebrates its independence day. Today, the Bahamas, just like other Caribbean states, attract thousands of tourists, the majority of whom are British, American and Canadian.\nWhen Did Barbados Gain Independence From The United Kingdom?\nWhen Did Chile Gain Independence From Spain?\nWhen Did Armenia Gain Independence?\nWhen Did Bulgaria Gain Independence?\nWhen Did Costa Rice Gain Independence From Spain?",

        "raw_content": "\u25cf IA-Sen: Democratic state Auditor Rob Sand has been mentioned as a possible opponent for GOP Sen. Joni Ernst since his 51-46 win last year, but he doesn\u2019t sound very likely to run.\nSand appeared on Des Moines\u2019 NBC affiliate over the weekend and was asked if he was eyeing this race, to which Sand promptly responded \u201cno.\u201d The auditor went on to say that he has responsibilities at home with two young children and he thinks he\u2019s \u201cmaking a big impact where I am.\u201d After Sand was asked if he\u2019d serve \u201cthis term out for sure,\u201d he relied, \u201cThat\u2019s my plan.\u201d That\u2019s not quite an ironclad no (plans can change after all), but it doesn\u2019t feel like Sand is especially excited about entering what would be a tough race.\n\u25cf TN-Sen: Over the weekend, Democratic state Sen. Sara Kyle announced she would not run for this open seat. The only noteworthy announced Democratic candidate is attorney and Iraq War Army veteran James Mackler.\n\u25cf VA-Gov: Virginia Del. Patrick Hope said on Monday that he was putting on hold his plans to file articles of impeachment against Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax regarding two separate sexual assault allegations. Meanwhile, several Fairfax staffers resigned their posts.\nHope, saying that he\u2019d received an \u201cenormous amount of feedback\u201d since first announcing his intentions to begin the impeachment process on Friday, explained that additional time is needed \u201cso that we can find the best process to investigate these crimes with the broadest possible support.\u201d According to the Richmond Times-Dispatch, Hope\u2019s decision to back off impeachment came after a \u201ctense\u201d call with fellow Democratic lawmakers on Sunday night, some of whom apparently were upset that Hope had acted without first consulting them.\nHope himself now says that if an alternative to impeachment proceedings emerges, he\u2019ll be \u201csupportive,\u201d but it\u2019s hard to see what that might be. That\u2019s because the crimes Fairfax is alleged to have committed would have taken place in Massachusetts and North Carolina, meaning the Virginia State Police would have no jurisdiction. And while Fairfax has asked the FBI to investigate, it\u2019s unlikely any federal criminal laws have been violated. Only local law enforcement agencies would have the ability to investigate, and they may or may not have an interest in doing so.\nFairfax\u2019s position continues to grow more tenuous, though, with the departure of four aides, two of whom were government employees and two who worked for his PAC. Also, on Monday, Fairfax was placed on leave by his law firm, Morrison & Foerster, which says it\u2019s hired a firm to conduct an investigation into the allegations against Fairfax. (The position of lieutenant governor, like those of legislators, is part-time, which is why Fairfax and most state lawmakers have outside employment.)\n\u25cf GA-07: Businessman Narender Reddy, who serves on the board of the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority, said over the weekend that he was considering running for this competitive open seat. So far, Reddy is the only notable Republican who has publicly expressed interest in running to succeed Rep. Rob Woodall, who announced on Thursday that he would retire.\n\u25cf IA-03: The local progressive blog Bleeding Heartland reports that some Republicans are trying to persuade state Rep. Jon Jacobsen to challenge freshman Democratic Rep. Cindy Axne in this competitive seat, and he\u2019s not ruling it out. Jacobson, who represents a seat along the Nebraska border, acknowledged he was being encouraged to run, but added, \u201cIt is far too early to make those determinations.\u201d He also said that, \u201cDue diligence requires that the performance of newly elected officials be judged objectively,\u201d and \u201conly then can an intelligent decision be made.\u201d\nGOP state Sen. Zach Nunn, who represents a seat to the east of Des Moines, also told the local NBC affiliate this week that he had been approached about running, and that \u201cmy wife and kids have already voted on it, and I\u2019ll let you know.\u201d\n\u25cf NC-03: North Carolina Rep. Walter Jones, who was one of the most iconoclastic Republicans in the House, died Sunday on his 76th birthday.\nDuring his 24 years in Congress, Jones put together one of the most eclectic records imaginable and regularly was a thorn in his party\u2019s ass. You don\u2019t even need to take our word for it: In early 2015, Jones himself bragged, \u201cI like to be a thorn in people\u2019s asses.\u201d Most notably, Jones transformed himself from an ardent supporter of the Iraq War to one of the few congressional Republicans to speak out against it during George W. Bush\u2019s presidency.\nPerhaps appropriately, Jones began his long and unusual political career as a Democrat. Jones\u2019 father, Walter Jones Sr., was a Democratic congressman who served from 1966 until he decided to retire in 1992. The younger Jones, who had served as a Democratic state representative for a decade, ran to succeed his father and competed in the primary the 1st District, which had been extensively redrawn in redistricting and was now majority black. Jones lost the nomination in a runoff to Eva Clayton, who would be the first African American to represent North Carolina in the 20th Century, by a 55-45 margin; the elder Jones would die in office a few months later.\nJones switched parties in time for the 1994 Republican wave and also switched districts, challenging 3rd District Democratic Rep. Martin Lancaster, who represented some of the same territory that Jones\u2019 father had once held. Jones made sure to tie the four-term incumbent to President Bill Clinton, who\u2019d become very unpopular in districts like this one, even running a campaign ad that showed the two Democrats jogging together. Jones unseated Lancaster 53-47, and he never faced a close general election again.\nJones spent most of his first decade in Congress as a reliable Republican vote who didn\u2019t draw much attention. However, he first made national news in 2003 when he was one of two Republican congressmen who, angry at France\u2019s opposition to the Bush administration\u2019s plans to invade Iraq, directed the House cafeterias to redub French fries \u201cfreedom fries\u201d and French toast as \u201cfreedom toast.\u201d\nBut within a few years, Jones came to regret his shenanigans and emerged as one of the few Republicans in Congress to oppose the Iraq War. The congressman first realized he had made a mistake by voting to take the country to war after he attended the funeral of a local Marine killed in Iraq during the first month of the conflict. He soon began sending letters to the families of soldiers killed in Iraq or Afghanistan in what he called his \u201cmea culpa to my Lord.\u201d By December 2017, he had sent more than 12,000 of these messages.\nJones attracted a primary challenge in 2008 over his opposition to the Iraq War, but he took 59 percent of the vote and got to rest easy for a few years. However, Jones never stopped being a maverick. He notably was one of the few Republicans who voted for the Dodd-Frank banking reform law, and he voted against John Boehner for speaker in both 2013 and 2015.\nIn 2018, Jones again earned a primary challenge from a pair of opponents, Craven County Commissioner Scott Dacey and retired Marine Phil Law. The two may have split the anti-incumbent, vote, though, and allowed Jones to escape one last time, as the congressman beat Law 43-29, with Dacey taking 28. While Jones won, the race demonstrated that a majority of the GOP electorate was ready for change, and during this battle, he said that he would not seek re-election in 2020.\nHowever, Jones never got to go to D.C. for his final term. Jones missed every vote in the House from November until the end of his life because of an undisclosed illness, and he was sworn into his final term in the House back home in North Carolina because he was too ill to make it to Washington. In the final week of January, Jones\u2019 team announced that the congressman\u2019s health had declined after he broke his hip on Jan. 14, and he was checked into a hospice care facility. Jones died Sunday after about two weeks in hospice care.\n\u25cf NY-01: Democrat Perry Gershon lost last year\u2019s contest to GOP Rep. Lee Zeldin by a 51-47 margin, and he told the Shelter Island Reporter he was \u201cstrongly leaning to another go.\u201d\nThis seat, which is located in eastern Long Island, has long been very competitive turf, but it swung from 50-49 Obama all the way to 55-42 Trump. However, according to Bloomberg\u2019s Greg Giroux, Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo carried the 1st District by a 49.1-48.6 margin last year, so it\u2019s hardly assured that Trump will do so well here in 2020. Zeldin has always been an ardent Trump ally, so if there\u2019s a local backlash against the White House, he could be in for a tough fight.\nThe seat is also located in the very expensive New York City media market, and last cycle, most major outside groups avoided investing much here. However, this was still an expensive contest, with Gershon outspending the incumbent $5 million to $4.8 million (Gershon self-funded almost $2 million). Zeldin also made sure to portray Gershon, who has long had a summer home in the Hamptons but only changed his voter registration from Manhattan in 2017, as an outsider.\n\u25cf OH-13: Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan recently confirmed he was indeed considering running for president, and that he would be visiting Iowa and New Hampshire this week. Ryan is notorious for talking about running for higher office but never going through with it, but since Ohio does allow him to run for president and for re-election at the same time, it\u2019s possible this time will be different. Ryan\u2019s Youngstown-area seat went from 63-35 Obama to 51-45 Clinton, but the GOP didn\u2019t field a credible candidate last year.\n\u25cf PA-12: The Daily Item reports that local Republicans will hold their convention on March 2 to select their nominee for the May 21 special election to succeed former Rep. Tom Marino in this very red seat. Marino said last month he was resigning to take an unspecified job in the private sector, but he revealed over the weekend he was actually departing because of health issues. Marino said that he \u201chad surgery and they found my lining in my kidney was deteriorating and tissue was blocking everything so they went in and cleaned everything out,\u201d but that he does not have cancer.\nA few Republicans have already announced that they\u2019re running here. Joseph Moralez, the vice president of a statewide nursing agency who describes himself as a \u201cblack, gay conservative,\u201d also announced he was in this week.\n\u25cf TX-02: Navy veteran Elisa Cardnell announced last week that she would seek the Democratic nod to take on freshman GOP Rep. Dan Crenshaw, who is himself a retired Navy SEAL. Crenshaw won this district 53-46 against Democrat Todd Litton, who is considering another try. This suburban Houston seat moved from 63-36 Romney to a much-smaller 52-43 Trump, and Litton\u2019s performance was the best showing for a Democratic House candidate in this area in a long time.\n\u25cf Special elections: There are two races on tap for Tuesday\nGA-HD-176: This is a Republican district in south Georgia located in the Valdosta area. This vacancy was created when state Rep. Jason Shaw was appointed to the state Public Service Commission. There are four candidates running, two Democrats and two Republicans. The Democrats are social worker Barbara Griffin and retiree Barbara Seidman, and businessman Franklin Patten and attorney James Burchett represent the GOP. If no candidate takes a majority of the vote, a runoff election will be held on a date that has yet to be determined. This a strongly Republican district: It backed Donald Trump 66-34 in 2016 and Mitt Romney 65-33 in 2012, and Shaw ran unopposed for this seat every year since first winning in 2010.\nTX-HD-125: This is a Democratic district in western San Antonio. This vacancy was created when state Rep. Justin Rodriguez was appointed to the Bexar County Commission. The race will feature four Democrats and a one Republican. The Democrats are activist Steve Huerta, former San Antonio City Councilman Ray Lopez, education policy expert Coda Rayo-Garza, and former state Rep. Art Reyna, who previously represented this district from 1997-2003. The Republican candidate is Fred Rangel, who picked up an endorsement from Gov. Greg Abbott. If no candidate wins a majority of the vote, a runoff election will be held on a date that has yet to be determined. Though Abbott\u2019s involvement suggests Republicans might be interested in making a play here, this is strongly Democratic turf: Hillary Clinton won this district 62-34, and Barack Obama carried it 59-40.\n\u25cf San Antonio, TX Mayor: Mayor Ron Nirenberg, a progressive who identifies as an independent, picked up his first notable opponent over the weekend when City Councilor Greg Brockhouse jumped in the race. The filing deadline is Feb. 15, and there hasn\u2019t been much talk of anyone else running. All the candidates will compete in the May 4 nonpartisan primary, and there would be a runoff June 8 if no one took a majority.\nNirenberg won his first term in 2017 by unseating conservative Mayor Ivy Taylor 55-45 (San Antonio is the largest city in the country where the mayor serves a two-year term). Brockhouse, who was also elected to his first term that year, has been a persistent conservative critic of Nirenberg, with him arguing that the mayor didn\u2019t do enough to attract the 2020 Republican National Convention or Amazon.\nBrockhouse, who used to be a consultant for both the city\u2019s police and firefighter unions, also used his announcement to argue that Nirenberg was \u201cneedlessly\u201d fighting first responders. Nirenberg has battled the two labor groups over pensions and other issues, and while he begins the contest with a $278,000 to $15,000 cash-on-hand lead over Brockhouse, the San Antonio Express-News\u2019 Gilbert Garcia writes that the mayor\u2019s allies fear that the fire union could spend heavily for the challenger.\n\u25cf Suffolk County, NY Executive: Democratic County Executive Steve Bellone is seeking a third term as leader of Suffolk County, a large Long Island county that swung from 51-47 Obama to 51-45 Trump, and he picked up two noteworthy GOP foes over the last few days. Robert Trotta, a member of the Suffolk County Legislature, launched his bid Tuesday. The following Monday, County Comptroller John Kennedy entered the race with the support of Reps. Lee Zeldin and Pete King as well as county GOP chair John Jay LaValle. The GOP primary is June 25, and the general election is Nov. 5.\nBoth Trotta and Kennedy argued that Bellone has badly managed the county\u2019s finances, with them each focusing on how ratings agencies have downgraded Suffolk County\u2019s bonds because of heavy borrowing. Bellone has blamed the problem on the deficit he inherited when he took office seven years ago, and said that he\u2019s combating budget issues by downsizing the county workforce and privatizing health centers. Last month, after Kennedy argued Bellone was \u201cdoing nothing\u201d to solve Suffolk County\u2019s budget problems, the budget office also announced that the executive will have saved taxpayers nearly $300,000 by the end of his second term by cutting his own salary and paying a share of his health insurance.\nMeanwhile, Bellone\u2019s team didn\u2019t waste any time hitting Trotta for waiting a day to take office in 2014 so that he could receive $7,000 in vacation pay from his time as a police officer, though the legislator ended up not accepting the money in the end. Bellone\u2019s campaign also turned their focus on Kennedy, who only won re-election last year 50.4-49.6, arguing that the comptroller had used his office to conduct audits aimed at weakening Bellone.\nBellone begins the race with a huge financial edge over both his would-be GOP foes: The incumbent has $2 million in the bank, while Kennedy has $120,000 and Trotta just $38,000. There may also be other GOP candidates ahead of the April filing deadline. Republican Tom Cilmi, the county legislature minority leader, said last week that he was considering but had no timeline for deciding. Larry Zacarese, who was Team Red\u2019s 2017 nominee for county sheriff, also said on Saturday that he would decide in the next two weeks. Zacarese earned the GOP nod two years ago in a huge primary upset, then lost the general election in a very tight race.",

        "raw_content": "Game Design to Find Your Lost Happiness\nTeammates: Boxiang Yu / Mengting Ge Duration: 2 Months\nFIND is an interactive game that depicts a man going through his journey to find youth. He went through three natural environments: forest, snowfield and desert; during which, he is faced with multiple challenges and difficulties. He has to endure extreme climates in desert (toridity and lack of water) and snowfield (coldness and lack of food) as well as to avoid monsters in forest. The character will leave a wooden house and then enter the desert, winterland and forest one by one with train connecting each one of them, finally reach a skyland.\nThe game is designed based on the concept: Knowing the importance of companionship, cherishing the thing that to be lost.\nFIND will be produced on the following platforms: PC Windows 8, Windows10, Apple IOS. This document is primarily concerned with the PC versions. The 64-bit Windows version requires at least 8MB of RAM. It uses 8-bit or 16-bit graphics, depending on the card fitted. Both PC versions of the game will be supplied on one CD-ROM. There will be no floppy versions.\nFIND will be developed using Blender, Unity3D and Visual Studio 2017.\nOnly one player can participate in the game, he will control the man as the character.\nPlayers will be able to control the man to do actions such as walk, jump, run, climb, get on or off the train. At the same time, the player can decide which direction the charcter goes.\nThe game will be controlled by keyboard.\nThe game is featured with low-poly graphic style. The player will keep having the first person viewpoint all the time and experience the landscape without understanding of the whole landscape. But at the end, the player will have the chance to climb up the hill to review all the scenes he went through from the beginning.\nSound will be different according to different scenes and moods of the character. Besides, natural sounds will be added to the game including wave, snow, wind and alike.\nThe playing world consists of three scenes: desertland, winterland and forestland. The man and his dog will travel through three scenes by taking the train and walking. There will be a number of clear landmarks to ease the navigation.\nLow poly is a polygon mesh in 3D computer graphics that has a relatively small number of polygons. Low poly meshes occur in real-time applications (e.g. games) as contrast with high poly meshes in animated movies and special effects of the same era. The term low poly is used in both a technical and a descriptive sense; the number of polygons in a mesh is an important factor to optimize for performance but can give an undesirable appearance to the resulting graphics. Source: https://www.awwwards.com/awards/images/2013/02/low-poly-timothy-reynolds-1b.jpg\nThe light in the game is the only cue for him to attain help to solve problems and get to the next round.\nThe game is also intended to express the tininess of human being compared to the vastness of the world.\nSnow & Lighthouse",

With just a capsule and the press of a button, in just a few seconds, you have a delicious espresso in your hands. Such easiness, rapidness and high quality of its products, has maintained this company successful for more than 20 years. I have to admit that I really enjoy preparing a cup of espresso from scratch, although I don\u2019t always have the time to go through all the ceremony of grinding, pressing and hoping that it comes out as it should, foamy and perfect.\nI learned this sophisticated ritual by watching a couple of people that I love and admire deeply. Dinnertime at their house is always a celebration, even if it\u2019s not a special occasion. As guests at their table, you can count on enjoying an exquisite meal that will always end with the wonderful sound of the coffee grinder followed by the espresso machine preparing a delicious cup of coffee prepared individually according to each guest's personal taste. That's why, if I have the time, I always enjoy recreating that moment wherever I am.\nBut, if I don\u2019t have the time, Nespresso offers me 20 different flavors and intensities to choose from. They catalogue them as Intense, Espressos, Pure Origin, Lungos, Decaffeinated and other variations such as Caramel and Vanilla.\nA few weeks ago, they launched a special edition capsule called Cuban\u00eda, inspired by Cuban coffee that is known for its rich flavor and full body.\nThis morning I tried it and it really has those characteristics mentioned before, its intensity is 13, the highest one in their scale. Yo Mariana am a loyal consumer of this coffee and highly recommend it.\nNespresso Cuban\u00eda Capsule - Photo by Yo Mariana\nIn Houston, you can only buy the capsules online, but if you're on vacation or live in a city that has Nespreso Boutiques, you have to visit these stores. Even if you don't like coffee, it's a visual pleasure to see the decoration and originality of their design.\nFor more information, visit their website at Nespresso.com and if you like strong coffee, get some Nespresso Cuban\u00eda before it's sold out.\nFollow me @yomarianablog",

        "raw_content": "Current Account Switches Up 22%\nBank accounts; almost everyone has one. They\u2019re almost a staple requirement in everyday life with people needing them so that they can get paid from their job, to make direct debit payments and so the list goes on.\nWell, after the launch of a new switching initiative last year, over 1.2 million people have switched their current accounts from one bank or building society to another.\nThe new scheme that was launched was meant to make switching easier for customers and it would seem that there are two banks that are benefitting from this new service.\nThe free \u201ccurrent account switch service\u201d went live in September of last year and the first lot of data has been released by the Payments Council.\nThe data shows that from October 1st 2013 to September 30 2014, a total of 1,203,334 switches took place which is a 22% increase on the 985,600 current accounts which were switched during the previous 12 months.\nThere are two banks that benefitted the most from this are Halifax and Santander. The Spanish owned bank, Santander from January 1st to March 31st 2014, gained 60,882 new accounts but the lost 23,566 and it was a similar story for the other big winner, Halifax. They gained 65,636 new accounts but lost 24,078.\nThere are three banks who took quite a beating when it comes to the accounts gained and the accounts lost. Lloyds notched up quite a big amount of new accounts with 60,877 joining them but the fact that 76,079 left them renders their gains useless.\nThe Co-operative Bank are trying to regain the trust of the general public with their products and services being caught up in a large scandal last year they only gained a total of 4,463 new accounts but lost many, many more than that; 12,315.\nFinally, there were two major losers in this period. Two of the larger banks in this country, two banks who can\u2019t afford to keep making losses after their fines for mis-selling PPI. They are Barclays and NatWest.\nBarclays gained 10,947 new accounts but they lost almost three times that amount with 27,414 leaving them and it wasn\u2019t any better for NatWest who gained 11,482 new accounts but saw 29,740 customers leave them.\nThere are some very obvious pros to having a bank account. Some of which we mentioned earlier like being able to pay direct debits, you get paid into them. It\u2019s a safe way of handling your money and you can see all of your incomings and outgoings.\nWell, there are also some not so obvious cons to having a bank account. For example, are you paying a monthly fee for your account? Well, we estimate that a majority of packaged bank accounts have been mis-sold.\nIf you don\u2019t know what a packaged bank account is, then it\u2019s worth doing a bit of reading if you\u2019re looking at switching your account as bank staff are known to be pushy when it comes to selling these accounts.\nPushy Sales Staff\nThey will try and sell you the benefits, more often than not they include \u2018free\u2019 breakdown cover, \u2018free\u2019 mobile phone insurance to name just a couple. The cost for these accounts depends on the one that you opt for and the bank that you\u2019re with as it can range from a small monthly fee of \u00a35 or can be as much as \u00a330 a month.\nOther things to look out for are being told that getting one of these accounts can help you to get a mortgage in the future. This isn\u2019t true at all and it counts as mis-selling.\nSo, if after reading this you didn\u2019t know that there were other options for a current account or if you were told that you would stand a better chance of getting a mortgage in future with one of these accounts or if you quite simply weren\u2019t aware that you were paying a monthly fee for your bank account, why wait around?\nStart your claim with the experts today, just fill in the form on this page and we\u2019ll launch your packaged bank account claim today.",

        "title": "FEATURE INTERVIEW | Wedding Planner Cat Nguyen \u2014 Yours Truly Media",
        "raw_content": "Special thanks to Cat Nguyen at Wish Wonder Dream for sharing an insider view of a wedding planner.\nTELL US ABOUT YOURSELF AND THE COMPANY:\nI studied business management in school, and wanted to run my own restaurant because of my parents. They had a passion for cuisine and run a restaurant. I loved working with people and different types of people. After graduating from college, I realized I wanted to take a leap of faith and do a 180. I\u2019m so glad I took that leap of faith, because it\u2019s well worth it. Wish Wonder Dream is a premiere wedding coordination company, and the people I work with have helped me to grow so much as a person. I have been in the wedding industry for over 2 years now.\nWHAT SHOULD BE THE FIRST 3 THINGS TO BOOK?\n1.Venue\n2.Photography/Videography\nMy favorite part of wedding planning is being able to sit with the clients and hear about their love stories. I\u2019ve known since I was 6 years old that I wanted to get married, and now I feel that I am at the stage where I am ready to get married myself. My favorite part of the wedding day is the father-daughter dance and first look because I love my father so much. At the end of the day, I feel that everyone looks back on wedding days and sees that love really does make the world go around.\nARE THERE ANY TRENDS YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE BRIDES MOVE AWAY FROM?\nHonestly, I do feel that the blush and greenery is overplayed. When it comes to weddings, I personally believe in making it your own. One of the first things I tell my couples, \"This is about you.\" Ultimately, you want your wedding to reflect you and your style. For example, if you and your fianc\u00e9 are crazy about superheroes and Marvel, incorporate that into your wedding! I ask my couples, \"How would you decorate your home? Your dream destination? Go back to your first dates. What did you do? How did you fall in love?\" This should be reflected into your wedding! Weddings should tell your love story and reflect who you are as a couple. I'd love to see couples play more with florals and colors and bring more of their love story and relationship. One particular couple went to Disneyland a lot, and the groom had kept all their parking tickets. I suggested to use them as table numbers! The best way to incorporate your guests in your wedding day is to incorporate them into your wedding story.",

        "title": "China To Lower 2019 GDP Growth Target As Fears Of Economic Slump Intensify | Zero Hedge",
        "raw_content": "China To Lower 2019 GDP Growth Target As Fears Of Economic Slump Intensify\nAs more signs of stress in the world's second-largest economy emerged during the latter half of last year, factory orders and consumption indicators slumped and its housing bubble on the verge of bursting, China is expected to report later this month that its GDP expanded by 6.6% in 2018 - the weakest rate since 1990.\nThis is hugely problematic for the PBOC, which abandoned plans for a macroprudential deleveraging to slash taxes and boost bank lending last year to try and stabilize its economy. But in keeping with China's legacy of economic goalseeking, in addition to redoubling its stimulus efforts in 2019, Beijing is reportedly planning to move the goal posts.\nAccording to Reuters, China is planning to set a lower economic growth target of 6% to 6.5% in 2019, compared with last year\u2019s target of \"around\" 6.5%, as Beijing braces for weaker domestic demand and more fallout from the US-China trade war.\nThe proposed target, to be unveiled at the annual parliamentary session in March, was endorsed by top leaders at the annual closed-door Central Economic Work Conference in mid-December, according to four sources with knowledge of the meeting\u2019s outcome.\nData later this month is expected to show the Chinese economy grew around 6.6 percent in 2018 - the weakest since 1990. Analysts are forecasting a further loss of momentum this year before policy support steps begin to kick in.\nAs the world\u2019s second-largest economy loses steam, China\u2019s top leaders are closely watching employment levels as factories could be forced to shed workers amid a trade war with the United States, despite a more resilient services sector, policy insiders said.\nFortunately for the Communist Party, the country only needs to show 6.2% growth over the next two years to achieve its goal of doubling GDP in the decade to 2020. Achieving this would transform China into a \"modestly prosperous\" country.\nNo matter what happens, Reuters' source said the Communist Party needs to show growth of \"at least 6% this year\" (and given China's reputation for doctoring its data, we imagine this will be a self-fulfilling prophecy). Still, adopting such a wide range for its GDP growth target would give the Party \"room to maneuver.\"\nThough China is revising its growth target thanks to signs of slowing growth, the same cannot be said for its inflation target, despite signs of weakening price pressures due to the weakening yuan (data this week showed China's CPI slowed to 1.9%).\nThe government plans to maintain a 3 percent consumer inflation target for 2019 despite a recent softening in price rises, leaving some space for the government to stimulate weaker consumption.\nThe discussion about changing the GDP target reportedly took place during a Central Economic Work Conference meeting last month, where tax cuts and further stimulus were also discussed.\nHowever, it's important to keep in mind that China likely inflates its GDP figures, though one academic who recently suggested that growth in 2018 might have been below 2% was subject to an aggressive government censure.\nThat should tell you all you really need to know about growth in China.",

        "title": "A Complete Guide To Visiting Turkey | The Zido Blog",
        "raw_content": "Home / Guide / A Complete Guide To Visiting Turkey\nTurkey is\u200b a\u200b country of\u200b diversity, stunning scenery, warm hospitality, and a\u200b whole range of\u200b resorts and activities to\u200b suit all tastes. a\u200b country spanning two continents where east meets west and 10,000 years of\u200b civilisation, Turkey is\u200b a\u200b treasure trove of\u200b history and culture.\nWeather in\u200b Turkey - Southern Mediterranean and Aegean Coasts\nTurkey's Mediterranean and Aegean coasts boast a\u200b perfect Mediterranean climate with low humidity. The long, extended summer runs between May and October with temperatures ranging from the low 20\u00b0Cs at\u200b the beginning and end of\u200b the season, up to\u200b the mid 30\u00b0Cs in\u200b the hottest months of\u200b July and August.\nDuring spring, the scent of\u200b citrus blossoms fills the air, the hills and valleys are green with vegetation and the cool, sunny days are ideal for hiking and sightseeing. During the autumn months it\u200b is\u200b a\u200b pleasure to\u200b visit historical and natural sites in\u200b the cool weather or\u200b to\u200b buy up bargains at\u200b end-of-season sales! Winters tend to\u200b be mild with some sun, and occasional showers, and it\u200b is\u200b not unusual to\u200b be able to\u200b swim in\u200b the sea even in\u200b November.\nThe mix of\u200b cultural influences and traditions in\u200b Turkey is\u200b one of\u200b the things that draw tourists to\u200b the country. Turkey has a\u200b rich cultural heritage with a\u200b long history of\u200b influences from both Europe and Asia, which is\u200b reflected in\u200b the complexity and diversity of\u200b certain Turkish arts, language and handicrafts. Turks are proud of\u200b their centuries-old musical tradition, which is\u200b similar to\u200b the music of\u200b nearby Islamic regions such as\u200b Saudi Arabia, Iran, and northern India. a\u200b cosmopolitan nation, Turkey has also adopted and developed ideas and traditions that combine Western, Asian, and Arabic elements.\nTurkish family units are extremely important. Children often stay with their families until they get married and then continue to\u200b be the main focus of\u200b their families' lives. Grandparents are often available to\u200b look after the children allowing the parents to\u200b go out to\u200b work. There is\u200b a\u200b great respect for elders in\u200b Turkish Culture and you can often see the younger generation kissing an\u200b elder's hand and then touching the forehead as\u200b a\u200b sign of\u200b respect.\nEqual rights for women were officially added to\u200b the civil code in\u200b 2018, so women now have equal say in\u200b relation to\u200b family matters and property and assets are divided equally in\u200b the event of\u200b a\u200b divorce. Women no longer need their husbands consent to\u200b obtain jobs and they are also entitled to\u200b continue using their maiden name if\u200b they wish once they are married.\nThe 'evil eye' is\u200b an\u200b ancient belief and is\u200b one of\u200b the most widespread superstitions in\u200b Turkey. it\u200b is\u200b believed that the 'evil eye' is\u200b created by feelings of\u200b extreme envy towards a\u200b person or\u200b object and that it\u200b can cast a\u200b spell on the object of\u200b it's gaze bringing bad fortune. The 'nazar boncuk' or\u200b 'evil eye bead' is\u200b actually a\u200b benevolent eye used to\u200b ward off harm and evil. it\u200b can be seen providing protection everywhere - in\u200b homes and buildings, in\u200b the car, and they are even worn by babies and young children.\nThe Hamam, or\u200b Turkish Bath, was a\u200b Roman and Byzantine tradition which was adopted by the Selcuk Turks in\u200b the 11th century and has been part of\u200b the Turkish Culture and a\u200b way of\u200b life ever since. it\u200b claimed an\u200b important role in\u200b society as\u200b not only was it\u200b a\u200b place where the faithful could follow the Muslim precept of\u200b cleanliness, it\u200b was also a\u200b place in\u200b which to\u200b socialize, gossip and even talk business or\u200b politics. The exfoliation, bathing and massage routine provide both a\u200b relaxing and exhilarating experience. Today Hamams can be found in\u200b most Turkish towns and cities and are they are popular with both locals and tourists alike.\nFamily Holidays in\u200b Turkey\nTurks love children and always extend a\u200b warm welcome to\u200b our young holidaymakers. There are many activities in\u200b Turkey which will keep children happy, the most popular being spending time on the gently shelving beaches which are ideal for families. For the more active, walking, horse riding, cycling and watersports are available.\nTurkey is\u200b home to\u200b two of\u200b the Seven Wonders of\u200b the World, the temple of\u200b Artemis at\u200b Ephesus, and the Mausoleum at\u200b Halicarnassus (present day Bodrum)\nSt Nicholas, popularly known as\u200b Santa Claus, was born and lived in\u200b Turkey\nNoah's Ark is\u200b said to\u200b have landed at\u200b Mount Ararat in\u200b Eastern Turkey\nTurkey provides 70% of\u200b the world's hazelnuts\nGave the English language many words including chock-a block, turquoise, yoghurt, kismet, kilim and parchment\nTurkey first introduced tulips to\u200b Holland and today still supplies tulips worldwide. The tulip is\u200b also Turkey's national flower\nTurkey was the first ever land to\u200b mind and use coins 2700 years ago by the Lydians\nTurkey has the world's first female Supreme Court Judge, and gave the women the right to\u200b vote in\u200b 1934\nWhilst the population of\u200b Turkey is\u200b about 99% Muslim, the country is\u200b a\u200b secular state which allows complete freedom of\u200b worship to\u200b non-muslims. Tourists visiting coastal resorts are unlikely to\u200b see much evidence that they are in\u200b a\u200b Muslim country, except for the call to\u200b prayer which can be heard 5 times per day. if\u200b visiting a\u200b mosque, dress conservatively and avoid visiting during prayer times or\u200b on Fridays, the holy day. On the coast, dress is\u200b generally relaxed beachwear for locals and tourists alike. it\u200b is\u200b only in\u200b smaller villages, more remote areas and the east of\u200b the country that the dress codes are more formal and more traditional.\nDuring Ramadan, or\u200b Ramazan, as\u200b it\u200b is\u200b known in\u200b Turkey, some locals may fast from sunrise to\u200b sunset. This is\u200b quite relaxed in\u200b the resort areas and should not have any affect at\u200b all to\u200b visitors.\nPublic Holidays in\u200b Turkey\nGovernment offices and banks will be closed on public holidays, but life in\u200b the resort areas continues much as\u200b usual. Money exchange bureaux and most shops and restaurants open as\u200b normal.\nHistory of\u200b Turkey\nHistorically known as\u200b Asia Minor or\u200b Anatolia, this vast region reflects a\u200b remarkable and fascinating history with settled habitation dating back to\u200b the eighth millennium BC. Anatolia has seen virtually every major western civilisation come and go including the Assyrians, Hittities, Phrygians, Urartian, Greeks and Romans. Treasured artefacts, including what is\u200b believed to\u200b be the first landscape picture ever painted were left behind and are displayed at\u200b Ankara's Museum of\u200b Anatolian Civilisations. Many of\u200b the museums' artefacts are the only clues we have to\u200b the earliest civilisations.\nSome of\u200b the finest sites emerged from the Hellenistic period such as\u200b the remains of\u200b ancient Troy and the ruined settlements of\u200b Lycia. The most impressive of\u200b them all is\u200b ancient Ephesus. it\u200b is\u200b believed that the Virgin Mary spent her last days in\u200b a\u200b small house on the edge of\u200b Ephesus whilst St John the Evangelist came to\u200b look after her. Now a\u200b place of\u200b Pilgrimage for Roman Catholics, the house has received the official sanction of\u200b the Vatican.\nIn 560 BC the King of\u200b Persia, Cyrus, conquered everybody and everything and soon subjected the Aegean cities to\u200b his rule. However, 200 years later they were defeated by Alexander the Great. He led the Macedonians eastward across Anatolia as\u200b far as\u200b India in\u200b pursuit of\u200b gaining the domination of\u200b Asia. Sure enough, he rapidly conquered the entire Middle East, from Greece to\u200b India.\nFollowing its conquest by Rome in\u200b the 2nd century BC, Asia Minor enjoyed centuries of\u200b peace. During the Middle Ages as\u200b part of\u200b the Byzantine Empire it\u200b became a\u200b centre of\u200b Christianity.\nThe Great Seljuk Empire, based in\u200b Persia, was the first real Turkish state in\u200b Anatolia. This empire had a\u200b distinctive culture with beautiful architecture and design. The Seljuks Empire quickly declined with Anatolia fragmented into a\u200b number of\u200b small emirates. The Turks gradually moved in\u200b on these states one by one which eventually grew to\u200b be the largest empire in\u200b recent history, the Ottoman Empire. The Ottomans ruled for more than six centuries until 1922. The following year, Asia Minor became the larger part of\u200b the Turkish Republic led by Ataturk.\nMustafa Kemal Ataturk was the main drive behind the development of\u200b modern Turkey. The former army officer became Turkey's first President and steered the country from the wreckage of\u200b the Ottoman Empire. Ataturk introduced dramatic reforms that touched upon every aspect of\u200b Turkish life. There were many significant changes including replacing the Arabic script with Latin characters. Primary education was made compulsory and religious law was abolished. Women were granted equal rights in\u200b matters of\u200b custody and inheritance and by 1934 women's rights had extended to\u200b Universal Suffrage.\nAtaturk was and still is\u200b a\u200b national hero- a\u200b massive presence in\u200b the long history of\u200b Turkey. in\u200b every town and village you will find reminders of\u200b the leader everywhere you turn. as\u200b time goes by Ataturk becomes even more of\u200b a\u200b hero as\u200b the country's people recognize his extraordinary influence in\u200b making Turkey what it\u200b is\u200b today.\nTurkish Food & Drink\nTurkish food is\u200b amongst the best in\u200b the world. With enough climatic zones to\u200b grow most ingredients locally, there is\u200b a\u200b vast array of\u200b produce to\u200b excite and entice the palate.\nBesides its famous kebab dishes, there are many other traditional Turkish foods to\u200b choose from. Meze (appetisers) for which Turkey is\u200b justly famous, are a\u200b range of\u200b hundreds of\u200b small dishes from simple combinations such as\u200b cheese with melon to\u200b elaborately stuffed vegetables. These are served in\u200b all Turkish restaurants and are traditionally accompanied with Raki, a\u200b clear anise- flavoured spirit claimed to\u200b be Turkey's national alcoholic drink.\nTurkey's most popular beers are the home produced Efes Pilsen and Tuborg, and whilst the wine industry has yet to\u200b realise it's full potential, Kavaklidere and Doluca, the best known brands, produce a\u200b selection of\u200b both red and white wines.\nShopping in\u200b Turkey offers the most unusual and diverse range of\u200b gifts tempting even the non-shoppers amongst us.\nTraditional handicrafts such as\u200b carpets, kilims, copper goods, painted ceramics and jewellery are popular buys, along with a\u200b good selection of\u200b leather goods, sandals and beachwear which can be found in\u200b most of\u200b the larger resorts.\nIn tourist and coastal areas, opening hours are quite flexible and during the summer many shops stay open until late in\u200b the evening, seven days a\u200b week, leaving tourists to\u200b browse at\u200b their leisure and escape the heat of\u200b the day.\nIn souvenir shops and stalls, it's always worth trying a\u200b spot of\u200b haggling. For food shopping, local minimarkets provide basic essentials, whilst the supermarkets found near the larger resorts are similar to\u200b those we are used to\u200b at\u200b home. Most resorts have a\u200b weekly market selling local produce, crafts and textiles and are well worth a\u200b visit.\nHiring a\u200b car is\u200b one of\u200b the best ways to\u200b get out and about, giving you the freedom to\u200b explore at\u200b your leisure.\nLocal transport within the towns and resorts consists of\u200b dolmus or\u200b minibuses (taxis) that run from one point to\u200b another and you can hop on and off anywhere along the route and pay according to\u200b the distance travelled.\nThings to\u200b do in\u200b Turkey\nTurkey offers a\u200b wide variety of\u200b activities for couples and families alike.\nWatersports including windsurfing, parasailing, jet skiing and canoeing are popular on designated beaches in\u200b or\u200b near many of\u200b the larger resorts. Scuba diving is\u200b also widely available, and the calm, clear waters are ideal for beginners and novice divers. Walking and trekking are becoming increasingly popular and they offer one of\u200b the best ways to\u200b explore the countryside.\nCurrency in\u200b Turkey\nNew Turkish Lira (YTL) is\u200b the official currency in\u200b Turkey. \"Y\" stands for \"Yeni\" (\"New\") in\u200b Turkish as\u200b the new notes and coins replaced the old currency which was withdrawn from circulation in\u200b January 2018. it\u200b can be purchased from your bank in\u200b advance, in\u200b which case we would advise you to\u200b order at\u200b least two weeks before your departure date. Alternatively you can change money, or\u200b travellers cheques once you have arrived in\u200b Turkey. It's easy to\u200b change up all major currencies in\u200b exchange offices, post offices and hotels. Exchange offices are also located in\u200b the arrivals halls at\u200b most Turkish aiports.\nCurrency can be also obtained from ATM/cash machines throughout Turkey, providing the symbols on the machine match those on your debit/cash card. Your bank should be able to\u200b give you further information on using your card abroad. if\u200b you do find yourself short of\u200b Turkish Lira at\u200b any point, many shops and restaurants in\u200b the coastal resorts and larger cities will accept payment in\u200b foreign currency. But if\u200b you are planning to\u200b travel to\u200b other parts of\u200b the country, it\u200b is\u200b advisable to\u200b carry some Turkish Lira.\nThe New Turkish Lira comes in\u200b notes of\u200b 5,10, 20, 50 and 100. The coins, called New Kurus (Ykr), come in\u200b 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 and one New Turkish Lira. One hundred New Kurus equals one New Turkish Lira.\nPlease note that Scottish currency is\u200b not accepted in\u200b Turkey. it\u200b is\u200b also worth noting that they may not accept any foreign bank notes for exhange which are ripped or\u200b have been scribbled on.\nBritish citizens require a\u200b standard ten year passport which must be valid for at\u200b least six months after the date of\u200b arrival back in\u200b the UK. Children under 16 years require their own passport if\u200b not already on a\u200b parents passport before October 1998.\nBritish citizens (including infants) have to\u200b pay a\u200b tourist visa of\u200b \u00a310 upon arrival. This must be paid in\u200b note form in\u200b cash. Scottish currency is\u200b not accepted in\u200b Turkey.\nFull details and application forms for a\u200b full British passport can be obtained from main post offices or\u200b direct from the Passport Office.\nNon UK passport holders are recommended to\u200b contact the appropriate Embassy in\u200b London as\u200b to\u200b their visa fee.\nTurkey Time Difference\nTurkey is\u200b two hours ahead of\u200b the UK. it\u200b is\u200b a\u200b good idea to\u200b adjust your watch as\u200b soon as\u200b you arrive, as\u200b any airline timetables are expressed in\u200b local time.\nVaccinations for Turkey\nNo vaccination certificates are compulsory for entry to\u200b Turkey. You should always check with your doctor, in\u200b good time prior to\u200b departure, if\u200b there are any inoculations the Department of\u200b Health consider necessary or\u200b advisable for any specific areas.\nWhen to\u200b Go\nThe main season for visitors to\u200b Turkey's western Aegean and Mediterranean coastal resorts is\u200b between May to\u200b October, when the weather is\u200b settled and the days are long and sunny.\nTemperatures range from the mid 20\u00b0Cs early and late season, to\u200b the mid 30\u00b0Cs during the peak season of\u200b July and August which is\u200b also the most popular time to\u200b visit when all the activities are in\u200b full swing. The sea temperatures are warm and ideal for swimming throughout the summer, and it\u200b is\u200b not unusual to\u200b be able to\u200b swim in\u200b the sea even in\u200b November.\nIn the coastal resorts we have a\u200b selection of\u200b properties suitable for occupation in\u200b late autumn, winter and early spring where you can discover the changing seasons. Please contact us for further information. There may be an\u200b additional charge for heating. The Turkish resorts do quieten down in\u200b winter and many facilities available during the summer months may not be available during winter.\nWill I be able to\u200b use my mobile phone?\nGenerally speaking, mobile phone coverage in\u200b Turkey is\u200b very good - the exception being some of\u200b the more remote and/or mountainous areas. it\u200b is\u200b important to\u200b remember that when using a\u200b British mobile phone, in\u200b Turkey, to\u200b contact our overseas offices and staff, even though you are linking up to\u200b the local network your call must be prefixed by 00 90 and you should then drop the first 0 of\u200b the Turkish phone number.\nWhat currency will I require?\nNew Turkish Lira (YTL) is\u200b the official currency in\u200b Turkey. Currency can be purchased in\u200b the UK but we advise you to\u200b order at\u200b least two weeks before your departure date to\u200b avoid any last minute rush. Once in\u200b Turkey, it's easy to\u200b change up all major currencies in\u200b exchange offices, post offices (PTTs) and hotels. Currency can be also obtained from ATM/cash machines throughout Turkey, providing the symbols on the machine match those on your debit/cash card. Your bank should be able to\u200b give you further information on using your card abroad. if\u200b you do find yourself short of\u200b Turkish Lira at\u200b any point, foreign currency, including pounds sterling, is\u200b readily accepted in\u200b many shops, hotels and restaurants in\u200b the tourist areas.\nTravellers Cheques or\u200b Credit Cards?\nCredit cards are now very widely accepted in\u200b shops and some restaurants in\u200b the main towns and resorts. Though you should always check beforehand if\u200b you intend to\u200b have a\u200b meal and pay afterwards using the card. Many small, family run restaurants or\u200b establishments may not accept cards. The smaller villages and places 'off the beaten track' may also not accept credit cards so have some cash handy.\nCurrency can be obtained from ATM/cash machines throughout Turkey, providing the symbols on the machine match those on your debit/cash card. Your bank should be able to\u200b give you further information on using your card abroad. Travellers Cheques can be cashed at\u200b banks, exchange bureaux and most of\u200b the larger hotels.\nWhat is\u200b the voltage and do we need to\u200b use adaptors?\nThe current is\u200b 220 V. Wall sockets take two rounded pin plugs, like many European countries. You will need an\u200b adapter plug to\u200b use UK appliances.\nIs there a\u200b time difference?\nYes, Turkey is\u200b on GMT + 2 (daylight saving GMT +3 operates between late March to\u200b late September). This means that for most of\u200b the year, Turkey is\u200b two hours ahead of\u200b the UK. it\u200b is\u200b a\u200b good idea to\u200b adjust your watch as\u200b soon as\u200b you arrive in\u200b Turkey.\nYou can now find most western goods, including holiday essentials such as\u200b suntan and aftersun lotions, insect and mosquito repellents, and such like in\u200b most of\u200b the larger resorts and supermarkets. Taking these items with you saves time and also ensures that you can find your preferred brands. It's worth taking a\u200b high protection sunscreen, especially during high season when temperatures can soar, a\u200b wide-brimmed sun hat, and a\u200b mosquito repellent both for your room and a\u200b spray for yourself when you are outside in\u200b the evenings. Also do take a\u200b European-type 2 pin adaptor for your electrical equipment - these can be difficult to\u200b find in\u200b Turkey. a\u200b photocopy of\u200b your passport is\u200b useful to\u200b keep on you as\u200b a\u200b means of\u200b ID, and if\u200b you are driving, a\u200b copy of\u200b your license as\u200b well to\u200b keep in\u200b the car.\nAre shops open on the day of\u200b our arrival?\nDuring the summer season, and especially in\u200b the resort areas, supermarkets, minimarkets and many shops are open daily, often till early evening.\nAs a\u200b general guideline opening days and times are as\u200b follows:\nBanks: 09.00 - 12.00 and 13.30 - 17.00 Monday to\u200b Friday.\nPost Offices: (identified by yellow PTT signs) 08.00 - 20.00 Monday to\u200b Saturday, and 09.00 - 19.00 on Sundays.\nMuseums - 09.00 - 17.00 Tuesday to\u200b Sunday.\nChemists (eczane) - 09.00-19.00 Monday to\u200b Saturday. a\u200b duty chemist is\u200b appointed on a\u200b rota basis to\u200b remain open for 24 hours, details of\u200b which are posted in\u200b any chemist's front window.\nShops: in\u200b the resorts, and particularly during the summer months, bazaars and many tourist shops open daily from around 09.00 till late in\u200b the evening, often till 22.00. More regular type shops may close earlier in\u200b the evening, and on Sundays.\nSupermarkets: Most supermarkets are open daily, and the larger ones are often open till 22.00 during the summer, a\u200b few open 24 hours.\nCaf\u00e9s and restaurants tend to\u200b operate open-ended hours and may not close till early in\u200b the morning.\nThere can be mosquito's in\u200b certain areas so a\u200b plug in\u200b deterrent is\u200b an\u200b idea. Ants are frequent in\u200b some rural areas.\nWhat is\u200b driving like in\u200b Turkey?\nAs in\u200b the rest of\u200b the Mediterranean, other road users may seem to\u200b the UK driver to\u200b drive unpredictably. The roads are generally well kept though some coastal or\u200b mountain roads can be narrow and winding. You should be aware of\u200b the following points:\nTraffic drives on the right in\u200b Turkey, which means you must give way to\u200b the right at\u200b junctions and roundabouts (vehicles joining the roundabout have right of\u200b way).\nThe wearing of\u200b seat belts is\u200b compulsory.\nThere are strict drink driving laws - the rule is\u200b absolutely no alcohol if\u200b you intend to\u200b drive. Random tests are quite common and police will issue on the spot fines.\nIf another vehicle flashes it's lights, this means that it\u200b is\u200b coming through, not that they are giving way to\u200b you.\nYou should drive defensively at\u200b all times, and great care should be taken when driving after dark as\u200b you may come across inadequately lit vehicles, slow moving lorries or\u200b animals wandering across the road.",

        "raw_content": "These performance measuring tools measure variables such as return-on-investment (ROI), marketing effectiveness, and the effectiveness of communication channels.\nUsing analytical tools will provide you with valuable insight to help make strategic decisions that will drive your business forward.\nImportance of Marketing Analytics\nThe diversification of marketing methods due to advancements in technology, has caused marketers to split their efforts resulting in a disjointed marketing environment.\nMarketers consequently fell into the trap of measuring the success of individual methods to measure the overall effectiveness of their marketing.\nThis led to inaccurate approach, because the effectiveness of one method doesn't necessarily correlate to that of another.\nWhat to Measure with Analytics:\nHaving access to quantifiable metrics of your marketing methods, is becoming more and more valuable.\nIt allows you to see what is working and just how well it's working. You're then make the proper adjustments to see success moving forward.\nHere are three things you can measure using analytics:\n1. Measure Website Effectiveness\nIn order to measure the impact of marketing on revenue, utilize an analytical tool, such as Mixpanel, to track web presence.\nThe tool keeps a record of user activity on the website. It also offers the company a detailed look at the specific areas that users are fond of frequenting on the web and the amount of time spent in each.\nThe analysis of this data allows marketers to optimize their marketing strategies according to usage patterns.\nThis way, they can be able to tell which marketing strategies are more effective at getting their users to take action and which ones aren't.\n2. Measure Content Marketing Strength\nHere, marketers go deeper and tie revenue to individual content pieces. Marketers employ tools such as content scoring.\nThis allows you to track down what every variable in your content marketing strategy does to contribute to the success of the marketing plan.\nFor example, it could tell you how much a particular Facebook post contributed to the revenue of the business as a whole.\nIt also tracks a client\u2019s journey with the company by noticing which particular content got them in the first place and what kind of content they are more likely to respond to.\nIt then attributes a percentage to each piece of content based on how many people it attracted. This information is invaluable when it comes to creating effective content.\nPredictive modeling is the process of taking data from marketers and using analytics to observe patterns in user behavior.\nThese patterns are then manipulated to deduce trends and establish confident predictions. Predictive analytics allows marketers to model their marketing plans and content according to the predicted results.\nHow to Use Analytical Tools Efficiently\nHowever, as with any invention, marketing analytics run the risk of not being used properly. Having access to the metrics isn't enough; you have to know how to use them effectively.\nWe get it; you may have heard of these analytical tools and have seen the benefits they can have for your business. It's only natural you feel inclined to start measuring data immediately.\nHowever, be cautious. In order to get accurate data, it's important to measure metrics over the course of a period of time.\nStart implementing analytics and use your best judgment when measuring how long it will take to begin seeing accurate results.\nDon't Lose Sight of Your Purpose\nDrawing deductions from the data can be an exhilarating experience because of the \u2018fun\u2019 facts you might obtain before everyone else.\nIt's easy to get caught up the statistics you find and get derailed from your true purpose; designing a strategy.\nThe point of analyzing the data and obtaining information is to obtain variables and facts that will help you optimize and align your strategies along these derived patterns.\nYou should have questions that you intend to answer with the results acquired from marketing analytics.\nThe statistics you gather are a bonus that you can use as part of a report or content offer in the future.\nObtain a Bird's Eye View of Your Clientele\nAnalytical tools will give you a bird\u2019s eye view of consumer patterns and trends. You can store these results and compare how they change over time.\nThis will keep you up-to-date with how your customers respond to various marketing strategies and how you can resonate with your target audience.\nKnowing your clientele is the single most important thing in business as this will ensure that you will always know which steps to take to close new business.\nWhen used correctly, analytics can greatly enhance the effectiveness of your marketing efforts. It will provide you with the insight you need to continuously improve and optimize processes.\nThis continuous improvement will allow you to seek higher return-on-investment and ultimately grow your business.",

        "raw_content": "CHICAGO, Monday\u2014This is Armistice Day and we are on our way by train to Chicago. It is raining and the landscape is dreary and gloomy, as it may well be, for it matches the mood of most of us who remember what Armistice Day meant to us in the year 1918. Nature should weep with us, for the high hopes which humanity had of ending war on this earth lie in ruins all about us.\nAgain we gather in body or in spirit at unknown soldiers' tombs the world over, but the belief that their sacrifice would never have to be renewed is gone. In the years to come, in many countries in the world, people will again gather to mourn the death of young men, old people, women and children, killed in this period of war madness.\nFor years I prayed and worked and hoped that the desire could be removed from men's hearts. Now I have to change my prayer, for when some men use force they oblige the rest of the world to compete on their terms. There are people, of course, who believe that physical force can be conquered by spiritual, passive resistance. Those who hold to this belief may prove at some future date that they are right.\nIn the meantime, for most of us, it seems imperative that we meet physical force with physical force. But our prayers and our endeavor should be to use this physical force to achieve the results in which we believe, and which are not achieved by the aims and desires of those against whom we exert our influence.\nCan we have physical force and not use it for oppression? The totalitarian countries would seem to prove that the answer is \"no.\" All of their people obey the will of the man or the few men who form their government, and this will is exerted to bring about misery and terror for certain groups of people and subservience for all.\nOur force, to justify itself, must be exerted to defend the weak, to insist that justice, so far as we know it, shall be meted out to all of our citizens and to those who come within our sphere of influence. If we can keep a guard upon ourselves which will prevent a lust for power, or a debauch of greed, then we will have done something even greater than what we envisioned on the Armistice Day of 1918.\nMay the prayer in the heart of each and every citizen of the United States today be that they acquire strength\u2014physical, mental and moral\u2014but only so that they may use it to build up a civilization from which war of all kinds may disappear. May God give each and every one of us the power to love, the grace to be humble and the understanding to be compassionate.\n(Copyright, 1940 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE)",

        "raw_content": "NEW YORK, Thursday\u2014On Tuesday I left Lake Success a little before one o'clock and motored into New York City for the celebration in the Yankee Stadium in honor of Mary Margaret McBride and her 15th anniversary on the air. It seemed a mad dash into town, but I ate a sandwich on the way in the car and listened to the nice things which people were saying about Mary Margaret. It must be gratifying when you have been on the air for quite a while, and know how easy it would be to make enemies, to find that you have made so many friends! Her radio program is so informal that after a broadcast her listeners feel they really have had a chat with her.\nWednesday afternoon I was rather late but I managed to arrive at The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in time to spend an hour at a delightful tea given by McCall's in my honor. It is hard to explain why I cannot leave Lake Success, for, of course, the vice chairman of the Human Rights Commission can preside. My difficulty lies in the fact that only I can cast a vote for the United States, so if we are voting I must be present.\nI reached home in time to welcome a few young people for dinner and then went over at 9:40 to a meeting of the Southern Education Foundation held at Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Sonnenberg's home on Gramercy Park South.\nJudge J. Waties Waring, the courageous jurist from Charleston, S.C., who has done so much to give the Negroes from that state the right to vote, was the speaker of the evening. He made a plea to the people who live in the North and who originally came from the South to come back and help those who live there.\nJudge Waring said slavery cannot be perpetuated under the name of segregation, nor can the old spirit of secession be revised under the guise of states' rights. The South must awaken to its responsibilities in the world as a whole, he said, and realize that racial prejudice can seriously harm the United States as the leading democracy of the world. These were inspiring thoughts to hear from the lips of a Southern gentleman.\nI have always felt that we, as Northerners, could do more harm than good by interfering in the South, and I am not convinced even now that there is much we can do beyond giving our money. But when people such as Judge Waring, Mrs. Tilly of Georgia and Aubrey Williams urge some of us to come down and speak, it impresses me. I begin to think I may be wrong in my feeling that the people of the South will resent the presence of us who do not live there but only come to talk of our ideas. I have always felt I had a certain right to speak because my Grandmother Roosevelt came from Georgia. Of late, however, I have been rather quiet about it, fearing that I might really make trouble for those who are hoping for help.",

        "raw_content": "June 23, 2015 August 7, 2015 / thebicyclops\nA major exhibition celebrating the western cultural revolutions of W.B.Yeats opens this June at NUI Galway. The Moore Institute and the Hardiman Library at NUI Galway presents Yeats & the West, an exhibition exploring Yeats\u2019s life, work, and legacy, and his deep connections to the west.\nYeats & the West reflects W.B. Yeats\u2019s attention to life, love, and landscape in Galway, Sligo, and beyond. The exhibition details the many artistic collaborations that centred on Coole Park and Thoor Ballylee between artists inspired by the western world, and goes as far as the American west tracking the fortunes of western artists.\nYeats & the West follows the formation of the Abbey Theatre in Galway, and Yeats\u2019s work with J.M. Synge, George Moore and Edward Martyn, using exclusive materials from NUI Galway\u2019s Lady Gregory Collection, the Abbey Digital Archive, and the Lyric Theatre Belfast. It follows his foundation of Thoor Ballylee as a poetic symbol. It explores his obsession with local poet Antoine \u00d3 Raifteir\u00ed, and highlights the gifted artists of Yeats\u2019s own family, whose pioneering work is showcased in exquisite handprinted books and in embroidery from Loughrea\u2019s St. Brendan\u2019s Cathedral.\nThis interactive exhibition features original watercolour sketches and oils by W.B. Yeats\u2019s brother, the celebrated artist Jack B. Yeats, works by Gerald Dillon and Harry Kernoff, priceless Cuala Press volumes and broadsides, a wealth of visual material from photographers from Fergus Bourke to Nicolas F\u00e8ve, and rarely seen images and manuscripts from archive collections in NUI Galway and around the world. It follows Ireland\u2019s dramatic political and cultural revolutions, and finds out how Hollywood and the American West began to answer back to these western dramas.\nThrough rare books, original documents, and artworks, and using modern touchscreens, recorded sound, and exclusive film, visitors take a tour of Yeats\u2019s commitment to history, tradition, and new art, all under western eyes. Talks and special events feature throughout the exhibition\u2019s spectacular run from June to December 2015.\nVisit Yeats & the West and rediscover western worlds and western revolutions.

        "raw_content": "Todrick x 4\nAugust 5, 2017 January 30, 2018 by priya2 Comments on Todrick x 4\nAlong the same lines of my last post, I\u2019m gonna be sending you to YouTube yet again. Have you heard of Todrick Hall? Hopefully you have. If not, you\u2019re about to be enlightened.\nTodrick was probably in his prime a few years ago, when he auditioned for the ninth season of American Idol, but he\u2019s remained consistent and done nothing but grow since then. I\u2019m not sure why I stopped seeing any of his covers up on Facebook for a while, but I\u2019ve remained a subscriber to his YouTube channel religiously, and I nearly scream whenever he pops up in my \u2018Recent Upload\u2019s tab. Thank God it\u2019s a \u2018nearly\u2019 otherwise those around me in the silent study area at the moment would definitely not have appreciated me shrieking when I noticed his new cover. Before I even begin, please watch this:\nNow I may not have given Todrick the due credit he deserved in that last paragraph. You probably have heard one of his covers. It would be the 4 cover of Taylor Swift, which I\u2019m pretty sure Taylor herself loved and shared. It too, was pretty great, though out of all the videos, this one is definitely my favourite. More notable is the fact that Hall also starred in Kinky Boots and performed on Broadway. I do also know that he made a few appearances as a judge on RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race, which I really only know about due to my friends. And the memes.\nBut yes. Todrick Hall. No one can say the guy doesn\u2019t have an incredible voice after watching that. Did you hear it? Like, did you hear it? He has an incredible crispness to his voice, and while I\u2019m sure there is some editing involved to clean up the overall sound, you can\u2019t deny how sharp and hard-hitting Todrick\u2019s voice is. And the harmonies??? Like, come on. He creates harmonies that I couldn\u2019t even think of, it\u2019s like he\u2019s creating notes that aren\u2019t even there. It\u2019s incredible.\nNow his first video with this type of format was phenomenal. It was insane. And it was Beyonce. Talk about jumping into the deep end. To even bother covering Beyonce in general is pretty brave. Covering all of Beyonce, mashing them up together and then singing all the parts by yourself? It\u2019s insane. And it\u2019s magical.\nLike, how? Imagine the brainstorm, practice, filming, recording, mixing and editing that goes into one cover. Then multiply it by four! Then add in choreography!! It\u2019s insane, and he makes it look so easy, all the while hitting notes as effortlessly as Bey. I have to admit, my favourite part is at 0:39. A moment.\nAfter the release of the 4 Beyonce video, it was as if Todrick was churning out more and more of these fantastic videos. The next one he did was a video I particularly enjoyed, The Evolution of Disney. Which again, he nailed.\nHe uploaded this on YouTube two months later. Two months. I still can\u2019t wrap my head around how hard this guy worked and how hard he is still working. I\u2019m pretty sure he has his own show on MTV, though I\u2019m not positive if it\u2019s still on air. But there was definitely a show. A well deserved TV special. But anyway, he included He\u2019s A Tramp from from Lady and The Tramp. For so long that was my favourite movie ever, and when he dances with that red boa singing like the little pup in the kennel I feel nostalgic as heck.\nThen, three months later, amidst selling his tickets for a national tour, he released what would be one of his most famous videos ever, the Taylor Swift medley.\nYou definitely hear how amazing he works with harmonies in this one. As well as the harmonies, the backing track that he creates. It\u2019s marvellous and not overtly obvious of the intended original song. And how quickly he dips in and out of songs? It\u2019s amazing how subtly he manages to pick and choose mere sentences to mix with others. And then he released one that\u2019s another favourite of mine, a Rihanna medley.\nThe whole build up to Rude Boy. The mashing of Disturbia, Pour It Up and What\u2019s My Name. Did you hear it? Did you see it? It\u2019s at 0:54. Please click.\nI could post a couple more of my favourite videos, but I\u2019m already having concerns on whether this post with come up properly content wise so I\u2019ll leave it at that.\nPlease have a watch, and look at some more of his stuff (especially his Ariana Grande version), here\u2019s the link to his YouTube channel:\nhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1VYb0EKcZuy9rG3q0VR57Q\nThere is so much work put into these four minute videos, it\u2019s insane to try and fathom the genius that is Todrick Hall.\nOh well, you can try.\nA THING THAT NEEDS RESPECT\nAugust 3, 2017 January 30, 2018 by priya4 Comments on A THING THAT NEEDS RESPECT\nI\u2019m so happy right now. So a few days ago, I was trolling through YouTube, and stumbled across this niche little corner of the internet, where absolute LEGENDS, are taking popular, current songs from the radio, and creating 80s versions of them. Like someone say genius. Genius.\nI picked a few of my favourites, you\u2019re welcome. Let me know which ones you enjoyed in the comments! Also, can we just appreciated the amazing covers?\nCloser \u2013 The Marlboro Smokers \u2013 we all know who actually released this song, but the name is probably the best part, besides the actually amazing guitar solo that features in this remix.\nWhat Do You Mean It\u2019s 1985\nFocus \u2013 Ariana Grande \u2013 I feel like Ariana\u2019s voice was literally made for the 80s.\nChildish Gambino \u2013 Redbone (70s Remix) \u2013 okay, this is the outlier that is a 70s remix, but it cannot be left off this list.\nWrecking Ball 80s Version\nKaty Perry \u2013 I Kissed A Girl 80s \u2013 Katy is driving me up the wall recently, but had she released this version, rather than the original, I would have loved it so much.\nRihanna \u2013 90s Bitch Better My Money \u2013 again, this one isn\u2019t exactly the 80s, but I\u2019m a 90s baby and I love this remix so much, nostalgic as heck.\n80s Remix: Selena Gomez \u2013 Bad Liar \u2013 so good. So, so good.\nJessie J, Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj \u2013 Bang Bang \u2013 um so if there\u2019s anything better than this remix, it\u2019s the video the producer made to go along with it.\n80s Remix: Arian Grande \u2013 One Last Time \u2013 again, Ariana\u2019s voice was made for the 80s.\n80s Remix: Cool For The Summer \u2013 they\u2019ve completely changed the rhythm of the chorus, and I really don\u2019t mind, I\u2019m not mad at all. And that sax.\n80s Remix: Into you \u2013 Ariana Grande \u2013 this. This is the song that got me hooked.\n80s Remix: Ed Sheeran \u2013 Shape Of You \u2013 play. this. at. the. club. This is my favourite. Hands down. No competition, no question. The best one. Which is why it\u2019s last. Those of you who persevered through all of these, deserve this absolute gem.\nI hope you liked this post. I liked putting it together because it gave me an excuse to scour YouTube for the best ones. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Let me know what you think!\nJuly 19, 2017 January 30, 2018 by priya7 Comments on The Feels\nCalvin Harris. I spoke about him in my last monthly favourites possibly, but here I am again, bleary-eyed, fresh off the plane from my holiday around the USA, to tell you just how much I\u2019m enjoying this particular song.\nEven the name does it. Like, the name should come as a warning title for everyone listening, about what you\u2019re going to experience when you give this song a go. Feels. All the feels.\nWith Harris\u2019 new album Funk Wave Bounces Vol. 1 recently released, I was blessed with a few minutes of wifi each day to interact with friends over the ridiculous time zone, post updates on my Instagram (cough cough youshouldhear cough) and download the album on Spotify so I could listen to it on the road. Let\u2019s break it down, shall we?\nSlide is the first song on the album, and if you\u2019ve been reading while I was away, you know how I feel about that song. It\u2019s funky as heck. Like, encapsulates the title of the album perfectly. Plus, what I believe to be, the final resurrection of Frank Ocean\u2019s vocals on this track, provide a killer backing for boogy-ing around your kitchen after a long day, making a half-decent meal.\nThen there\u2019s Cash Out. I don\u2019t even know what happened around me for the duration of this song when I first listened to this because I tuned out. I literally got lost in this song. And I\u2019m not sure why, because it\u2019s definitely not my favourite song on the album. The chorus sounds vaguely familiar to the ultimate fave, this blog\u2019s topic, Feels, yet, I still vibe with it 100%. And PartyNextDoor\u2019s voice can do no wrong. It\u2019s probably that.\nThen there\u2019s Heatstroke. This is the song that really pulled me in. Slide was funky, but I wasn\u2019t hooked until I heard this song. I live for Pharrell and Ariana together in this song. It work\u2019s so well, and I love how their voices gel.\nRollin\u2019. Oh Rollin. If you aren\u2019t familiar with Khalid, get around it. He\u2019s amazing, vocally amazing. I can\u2019t understand how it\u2019s taken this long for him to really kick off, but now that he\u2019s doing the circuit I can only hope he makes it Down Under soon. This song is another boost for Khalid, and Calvin does this dude justice. I couldn\u2019t imagine Khalid on an overly funk infused track, and this seems like a perfect middle ground between the vibe Harris was aiming for with this album, and the smoothness that Khalid brings to any song he touches.\nPrayers Up. It\u2019s probably my least listened to song on the album. I don\u2019t know. It doesn\u2019t stick with me, and that\u2019s usually what it takes for me to continue to return to a song. Like Feels. Though the synths in this song are killer.\nHoliday. I only listen to it for John Legend and Takeoff. And I didn\u2019t even know who Takeoff was before listening to this song. Snoop Dogg is great, but Calvin hit the jackpot getting John\u2019s vocals on it. Hearing him float throughout the track is lovely.\nSkrt On Me is phenomenal. Nicki Minaj is phenomenal. I\u2019m going to come out and own up to the fact that I didn\u2019t really care for Nicki until maybe late 2015. And she\u2019s doing amazing stuff, that I vibe with. Swalla was only the beginning of it for me this year, and getting her as the solo feature on this song was an amazing decision. Nicki\u2019s singing voice is so under-appreciated and Harris has pulled through to deliver that amazing-ness.\nFeels, we can wait for that a little bit.\nThe next song on the album is Faking It, with Kehlani and Lil Yachty. I was pretty biased when I listened to this song, because I listened as a fan of Kehlani, and even if it totally sucked, it wouldn\u2019t have in my opinion. I could listen to that girl sing the alphabet and cry \u2018Grammy!\u2019. Thankfully, I didn\u2019t have to because this song is one of the more mellow songs on the album, but you can still groove to it. Versatility is such a key for me, and this song ticks that box straight away. And the lyrics. Spot on. No wrong.\nI had never heard of Jessie Reyez before I listened to this song, and I\u2019m low-key very angry about it. She kinda reminds me a bit of a more RnB version of Norah Jones. I love it. This song is a great finisher to this amazing album.\nBut now. The reason for this blog.\nFeels. Feels, feels, feels, feels, feels.\nI don\u2019t care if I get smack for this, but if Katy Perry could put aside her own career for a little while, and commit her life to the few lines she sings in this song, I would be eternally grateful. It\u2019s so good??? Pharrell kills it. Pharrell Williams honestly grabs the verses and pre-chorus by the horns, and kills it. Nails it all. And then the chorus comes in. The first time I heard it, I was convinced that it was not Katy Perry. It sounds totally different to the stuff she\u2019s recently released, and I prefer these five lines to anything I\u2019ve heard from her in the last three years. Honestly. 100% honesty. And then Big Sean comes through and I was forced to commit at least twelve replays to learn that rap, which I now scream religiously. Wait for this song at the club. Just wait.\nCalvin Harris is killing it this year. Between his perfectly timed single releases, the parrot in the promotion for the album and the incredible list of feature artists that help make up the record, he nails it. Honestly, if one of these songs isn\u2019t titled Song Of Summer for this year, I\u2019ll throw fists. I\u2019ll do it. Especially if Feels isn\u2019t featured. Play Feels at my wedding. Heck, play it at my funeral. Live funky, die funky.\nI\u2019m a bit passionate about this song. Hopefully you are too. If you aren\u2019t, give it a few more plays. Don\u2019t resist.",

        "raw_content": "Land of the Dead: Road to Fiddler's Green is a first person shooter based on the movie of\nGeorge A. Romero Land of the Dead.\nThe game is a prequel to the movie, and takes place during the first moments of the zombie epidemic.\nThe player takes the role of Jack, a humble farmer far from the civilization that one day finds the surroundings of his house infested with zombies. Jack fights for his way through the zombies, first crossing the farm of his neighbors to see that they were still alive, then through the nearest town. Jack finally tries to escape with the help of Otis, a truck driver who was being held in a police station at a fortified place made by orders of Mr. Kaufman whose aim is to be a place to test the undead. Jack is hired by Kaufman to clear out a luxury high-rise, Fiddler's Green, by killing all the zombies inside so that the humans can move in.\nThere are only two human characters in the entire game: Jack himself, and an escaped convict named Otis who allies with Jack for a couple of missions. An un-named doctor and Mr. Kaufman from the film also briefly appear in a couple cutscenes, but have no dialogue.\nLand of the Dead: Road to Fiddler's Green utilizes traditional first-person shooter gameplay. Players can use a variety of either melee weapons or firearms to fight through the zombie hordes. Some weapons are capable of dismembering the zombies, while other weapons are not.\nThe Multiplayer Component of the game consists of many online gametypes. These consist of your average deathmatch and team deathmatch modes, but they also decided to throw in a co-op survival mode where players are trapped in a small map where they must survive for a chosen amount of time. In this mode the weapons respawn in the same spots every time, allowing the players to dodge the burden of ammo shortages.\nPunch/Fist\nLever-action .22 Rifle\nCritic reviews for the game have been generally negative, while player review scores have generally rated the game as above average. According to metacritic.com, the average reviewer score is a 32 / 100 while Users scored it 5.6/10. There appears to be a thriving modding community for the PC game as well as a loyal fan base. This could be attributed to the fact that the game lacks any kind of protection, allowing a single copy to be ripped and used by any number of people and computers.\nGroove Games's official page for the game\nOfficial 1.1 version patch, including mod support and required for current multiplayer play for the PC version\nGameSpot's review of Land of the Dead: Road to Fiddler's Green\nUndeadgames.com, custom maps, and mods endorsed by the original developers of LOTD.\nLivingDeadMedia.Com, a Mod and Map Resource for LOTD and other zombie games\nDead Awake - a new single player game built on top of Land of the Dead\nDead Epidemic - Another new single player game built on top of Land of the Dead\nBeyondUnreal's Legacy Unreal Engine page for Land of the Dead\nRising-Dead.Com | a place to go for MAPS, MODS, And Updates about everything Zombie related\nRetrieved from \"https://zombie.fandom.com/wiki/Land_of_the_Dead:_Road_to_Fiddler%27s_Green?oldid=47421\"",

        "raw_content": "\"Why did you decide to become a writer and why a crime writer?\" by Catriona\nI wanted to be a writer my whole life, ever since my big sisters taught me to read and write, playing at schools when we were wee.\nBut it took me till I was thirty-five to take the plunge. Thing is I didn't know any writers, I'd never even met any writers and it was outside the scope of my dreams. (Does anyone else remember finding out that books didn't just exist, like rocks or rivers, but that someone had made them? I do.)\nSo I went to university to study English literature, and that might have been the springboard right there, right? Except the way English literature was studied sucked all the joy out of novels for me. So I switched to linguistics, and fiction went back to being fun on the sidelines again.\nAfter I graduated, I went to work in a library. Another near miss, because I was a long way from the fiction, working in the local history department. After two years of swithering between a postgraduate degree in library science and more linguistics, I plumped for linguistics and did a PhD.\nThere's a sort of a greased slope with steep sides, when you're doing a PhD. In your last year you apply for academic jobs along with everyone else. So I did. And I got one. It was in a school of English, forty literature scholars and four lonely linguists. Again, I was brushing up pretty close to a lo-ho-hot of fiction. And again I hated it more every day. That job, that place, sucked even more joy even more thoroughly out of even more kinds of literature. Novels, poetry and plays all started to feel grey and pointless.\nOne night, when I was moaning to my friend about how much I hated my job, she asked why I didn't do something else. I told her there was nothing else within reason I wanted to do. The only thing I really wanted to do was write fiction. There was a long silence as a big unspoken bubble of 'Duh' formed over us. The next day (in my memory, but then I make things up for a living) I resigned.\nI sat down to write the first word of my first book on the first of January 2001 and have loved every day since, have never had a full day of undiluted regret.\nTwenty-something books later, I don't regret the first thirty-five years. Not even the five years teaching at the University of Deathly Despond. The way I look at it now is the only way to get where I am is the way I came and there's nowhere I'd rather be.\nAnd why crime fiction? Come on! It's all of the above plus a wit-pitting puzzle to boot. What's not to love?\nSounds like you made the right choice, Catriona.\nI had a sneaking suspicion books were written by people quite early on, but not till I got published did I realize they're mere mortals like me. Nice post, Catriona.\n\"Playing school\" triggered a memory for me. My poor kid brother and sister having to get spelling lessons sitting under a bush in the yard, writing - get this - on leaves with our fingernails. Sadly, I agree with you that academics can take the fun out of the great and juicy stories written over the last few hundred years. So very, very glad you jumped ship!\nLoved \"the sucked the joy out of reading novels\". My experience exactly. Probably my reason for fleeing English classes as soon as I could. Great post. Great journey to where you are today.\nI\u2019m so glad you fell off that horse when you did. This morning I was thinking about who writes the bewks i most anticipate, and your name came tight up at the top of the list.\nLove, your stalker.",

The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, also commissioned a well-furnished 6 x 2-room officers\u2019 accommodation, as part of concerted efforts to address the accommodation needs of NAF personnel in general, and those serving at 115 Special Operations Group Port Harcourt in particular. The new residential block was named after Wing Commander MB Umar, a NAF combat helicopter pilot, for his sterling and outstanding act of gallantry in the face of adversaries in the Northeast counterinsurgency operations.\nIn his remarks, Air Marshal Abubakar expressed delight at the timely completion of the projects, which are in line with the policy trust of the current NAF leadership to reposition the NAF by promoting and inculcating excellence and service delivery. He added that the NAF was not oblivious of the fact that the human needs of a fighting force are very critical to operational effectiveness. \u201cThis is why this administration places a lot of premium on the welfare needs of personnel and that is why we have continued to take far reaching initiatives designed to enhance the capacity of our key strategic resource, which is the human capital\u201d, the CAS added.\nThe CAS expressed hope that the new project would provide some form of leverage for personnel of the Unit and further enhance their efficiency during the conduct of their military duties. The CAS congratulated the beneficiaries of the project and charged them to ensure proper maintenance of the facilities. Air Marshal Abubakar further stated that the newly commissioned facilities at the NAF Reference Hospital Port Harcourt were designed to address the secondary and tertiary healthcare needs of personnel as well as the host community. He added that the provision of the new projects would not have been possible but for the enabling environment constantly created by the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, President Muhammadu Buhari. The CAS, therefore, expressed appreciation to President Buhari for his unflinching support in ensuring that the needs of the NAF are given utmost attention whenever required.\nThe CAS seized the opportunity of the visit to inspect other on-going projects aimed at enhancing personnel welfare. He also took the time to assess the level of progress of the on-going reactivation of some NAF combat helicopters. He expressed his satisfaction with the extent of work, which was nearing completion, and noted with delight that the operational capability of the NAF would soon receive a further boost. In a subsequent interview with pressmen, the CAS stated that the NAF was making comprehensive efforts at combatting the security challenges in the country. According to him, the NAF is not only focussed on the improvement of its operational capability, through the acquisition/reactivation of platforms, but also investing towards enhancing the welfare of its personnel, having recognized the primacy of the human being as a resource. He added that the resolution of the nation\u2019s security challenges required military and socio-economic measures. According to him, the NAF would continue to adequately play its part in contributing to the military measures at resolving the challenges while expecting those challenges facing other dimensions of security, especially at levels that are closest to the people, will be addressed. The CAS and his entourage from HQ NAF had since returned to Abuja.",

The event, which took place today, 24 September 2018, also witnessed the commissioning of a newly constructed Headquarters Building for 057 PIG, which is aimed at ensuring a conducive environment for the NAF Directorate of Air Provost to effectively and efficiently carry out criminal investigations as well as train its personnel.\nSpeaking during the commissioning, the Guest of Honour, Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris, lauded the efforts of the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, in providing a befitting and functional environment whilst making inroads in the application of forensics in policing. According to him, the reactivation of the Lab is a testimony of the NAF leadership\u2019s commitment to push the boundaries and improve on the methodologies and technological platforms to detect and analyse evidence of crime in the Service. He remarked that the effectiveness of the facility could, with time, become a force multiplier with regards to raising and maintaining the morale of airmen which would, in turn, enhance operational capability. While urging the beneficiaries of the facility to exploit its potential to the maximum, Mr Idris commended the CAS for the unprecedented achievements recorded in the area of capacity building in the NAF as well as for playing a pivotal role in bringing normalcy to troubled areas of the country.\nWhile making his remarks, the CAS noted that the rapid growth of technology has led to an increase in the rate and extent of crimes. He observed that, following the expansion of the NAF Force Structure, it became obvious that the Service required a law enforcement arm with the capacity to effectively employ scientific approaches in all facets of its critical competencies, in order to enhance security and discipline in the Service. He noted that it was in fulfilment of this requirement that the new PIG Headquarters Building and NAF Forensic Crime Lab were being commissioned. Air Marshal Abubakar stated that, as a prerequisite to provision of the Lab, the NAF had embarked on the conduct of various specialists training for the personnel to man the Group. In this regard, the NAF, in conjunction with foreign partners from the United Kingdom (UK), had trained 16 Provost personnel in the Core Investigative Skills and Interview Techniques, while another set of 16 personnel would be concluding the Crime Scene Investigation Course by the end of the week. It is noteworthy that the last time such training was conducted in the NAF was about 30 years ago.\nThe CAS further disclosed that the investigative capacity of the Provost would be further enhanced through the training of 10 Provost Officers in the Advanced Detective Course at the Police Staff College Jos before the end of the year. He mentioned that the NAF was also expanding and enhancing its utilization of Military Working Dogs to boost physical security of critical NAF Bases as well as for integration into the conduct of Combat Search and Rescue operations. \u201cIn the same vein, 140 Air Provost personnel would soon commence the Force Protection in Complex Air Ground Environment training, in conjunction with the British Military Advisory Training Team. Furthermore, the rejuvenation of the Air Provost\u2019s Explosive Ordnance Detection capability is projected to commence by the end of this year\u201d, Air Marshal Abubakar added. The CAS also seized the opportunity to thank the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, President Muhammadu Buhari, for his leadership and determination in providing the enabling environment for the NAF to thrive, while also expressing the gratitude of the Service to the National Assembly, especially the Senate and House of Representatives Committees on the Air Force, for their commitment in appropriating the resources to enable the NAF effectively perform its constitutional roles. The CAS equally congratulated the NAF Logistics Branch for undertaking the work by Direct Labour. Air Marshal Abubakar ended by charging all Air Provost personnel to develop a strategic foresight founded on innovation, flexibility, willingness to collaborate with other security agencies as well as objectivity and fairness, in order to successfully meet the demands of contemporary policing.\nEarlier in his address, the Commander 057 PIG, Group Captain Garuba Bello, stated that the Forensic Lab would significantly assist Air Provost Investigators in obtaining credible evidence for successful prosecution of cases in a court of law while also adding to the country\u2019s crime fighting resources. One of the highlights of the event was the simulation of a Crime Scene Investigation, conducted by resource persons from Sustainable Criminal Justice Solutions UK and NAF personnel, to demonstrate the intricate process involved in evidence collection/capturing as well as the importance of ensuring effective control at a crime scene.",

        "raw_content": "Home > News > NIGERIAN AIR FORCE GRADUATES ADDITIONAL FIGHTER PILOTS TO BOOST OPERATIONAL CAPABILITY\nNIGERIAN AIR FORCE GRADUATES ADDITIONAL FIGHTER PILOTS TO BOOST OPERATIONAL CAPABILITY\nAs part of its unrelenting efforts at boosting its operational capability to meet contemporary security challenges, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) yesterday, 18 July 2018, graduated additional fighter pilots. The graduation, which took place at the 407 Air Combat Training Group (ACTG), Kainji underscores the importance the current NAF leadership places on human capacity development for improved professional performance. Speaking during the graduation ceremony, the Guest of Honour, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, who was represented by the Air Officer Commanding (AOC) Air Training Command, Air Vice Marshal (AVM) Mohammed Idris, stated that the graduation of additional combat pilots would boost the efforts of the NAF in the ongoing fight against insurgency and other forms of armed banditry in the country.\nSpeaking further, the AOC stated that training has always remained a major agent of transformation, noting that 407 ACTG has continued to fulfill its role of training combat ready fighter pilots for the NAF to defend the nation\u2019s territorial integrity by air. He therefore thanked the CAS for his deep interest, guidance and provision of resources for the conduct of training activities in the NAF. The AOC also expressed his gratitude to the Commander, instructors, officers and airmen/airwomen of 407 ACTG for their contributions towards ensuring the successful completion of the pilots\u2019 training. AVM Idris congratulated the graduands for being able to complete the combat training programme. According to him, the rigours of the training were aimed at giving the pilots the requisite foundation and balance to prepare them for greater challenges they would definitely face in the operational squadron. He then reminded them of their importance to operational effectiveness and accordingly urged them to be ready to contribute their quota to enhance operations in the NAF.\nEarlier in his opening address, the Commander 407 ACTG, Squadron Leader Gambo Maidawa, disclosed that the Unit has been the hub for producing combat ready pilots for the NAF through the collective efforts of its officers, airmen, airwomen and civilian staff. He thanked the CAS for his admirable leadership style, which has spurred them to achieve this great feat. He therefore promised to continue to provide purposeful training to actualize the mandate of the Unit. The Commander also appreciated the host community for their understanding and support.\nThe Tactical Fighter Course 21B, which commenced in April 2017, included the Ground Academics and Flying Phases with the Flying Phase focusing on conversion flying on the Alpha Jet aircraft and tactical flying on the same aircraft. Additionally, the pilots received training on air-to-ground and air-to-air missions. Among the dignitaries that graced the occasion were the Emir of Borgu, Barrister Muhammadu Sani Haliru Jikantoro as well as heads of military formations and security agencies.",

        "raw_content": "Pulling out all the stops to restore All Saints' organ\nSimon Tayton and Simon Lawford present their proposal to restore the organ's solo division.\nThe solo division currently lies un-used in its own shuttered case - these pipes last sounded in 1982.\nTuba pipes lying un-used in the organ loft - it is hoped that these might be restored to a playable state in the near future\nThe Friends of All Saints' Music (FASM) tonight hosted a meeting at which Simon Lawford and Simon Tayton proposed an exciting project to restore part of the All Saints' organ, which would increase its capacity by a further 20%. Former and current organists from All Saints' and the local area were invited to share their views on the project.\nSimply by connecting up an old and forgotten \"solo division\", the organ would become even more effective when accompanying the choir as well as improving the traditional English sound which would have filled the church before changes made in 1982. Other easily-restored stops include pipework for the Vox Humana and Tuba.\nThe All Saints' organ is already a grand instrument (read more about the organ specification), but recent investigations have revealed that only modest investment could improve it to a standard which would rival some cathedral organs. Indeed, the proposed changes would go a long way to restoring the sound to that of its original specification in 1925.\nIn 1982, urgent refurbishment of the organ was needed when the old pneumatic action began to fail. A modern electrical action was installed alongside several changes to the pipes, according to the prevailing fashions of the day. Unfortunately several of these changes are now considered to be detrimental and the current plan is to reverse some of them. Such restoration work would usually cost tens of thousands of pounds. Fortunately, the pipework was left inside the organ loft and simply requires re-connecting to allow the pipes to sound once again.\nYou can read more about the history of All Saints' organ in the organ pages.\nThe next step will be to discuss these proposals at the church's next PCC meeting and obtain an independent report on the current state of the organ. We then need to begin fundraising for this exciting project, which should benefit audiences and congregations at All Saints' for many years to come.",

        "raw_content": "Tag: quantum field theory\nThe Truth About Empty Space\nWe often think of outer space as a never-ending vacuum filled with the occasional galaxy. What we don\u2019t realize is that away from our eyes, this vacuum comes alive.\nIn order to understand what truly happens behind our backs in the vacuum, we must start by examining space itself.\nSo what is space? Quantum Field Theory tells us that space is composed of fundamental quantum fields, with a separate field for every particle that makes up our universe.\nElectrons, quarks, neutrinos, and other fundamental particles are just the oscillations of the field with different energies. In specific, they have quantum energy, which exists as multiples of a baseline energy.\nYou can think of this as a ladder with energy levels. Each rung of the ladder represents the existence of one additional particle in that quantum state.\nSo the bottom of the ladder would be where there is no energy, meaning there are no particles. This is known as the vacuum state.\nBut as we will see, we cannot actually have zero-energy. Instead, the quantum field gently vibrates randomly. Sometimes this produces enough energy to form particles out of seemingly nothing!\nThe particles arising out of the fluctuation of quantum fields are called virtual particles.\nEmpty space is teeming with these virtual particles or \u201cwiggles in the field\u201d.\nBut there is a catch; these particles are created in particle and anti-particle pairs. They live only for a short instance of time until they destroy each other, popping in and out of existence.\nThe higher the energy of the particle, the lesser time it can exist. Wait a minute. Virtual Particles? That sounds sketchy. Let me show you the proof.\nBy definition, these elusive particles only exist when we aren\u2019t watching, but their presence can be felt throughout the universe. In 1948, Hendrick Casimir came up with an ingenious idea to observe these virtual particles.\nThe Implications of Virtual Particles\nWell, these seemingly insignificant particles have made quite an impact on the universe we know today. Not only do they explain \u201cparticle-particle interaction\u201c, but they can be traced back to the origin of the universe itself!\nQuantum Field Theory: Reality is Not What You Think It Is\nQuantum Field Theory is the current best understanding of the nature of reality that we have. It\u2019s also the strangest. Join me as we break down how we got there and what it all means.\nQuantum Field Theory \u2013 Reality Is Not What You Think It Is | Podcast\nGet some cool t-shirts yo!\nFrom The Royal Institution \u2013 David Tong on Quantum Field Theory\nPart one on Quantum Electrodynamics and Paul Dirac at PBS Digital Studios\nFermilab on Quantum Field Theory",

        "title": "\ufeff Our Food Our Future: Revitalizing the Ecosystem in Malaysia*",
        "raw_content": "Our Food Our Future: Revitalizing the Ecosystem in Malaysia*\nIndu Bala Jaganath\nResearch Specialist (Nutrigenomics), MARDI\nMalaysia as a country has the right to define and control its food sovereignty but the country is open and vulnerable to the challenges of the environment, urbanization, changing demographics, and rising amounts of food waste. Thus, Malaysia desperately needs a food revolution movement where farmers need to be smarter about crop production. It is realized that agriculture has enormous impacts on the world\u2019s most critical resources, i.e. land and water. Accordingly, farmers will have to produce while also ensuring the provision of various vital ecosystem services. For a greener and more sustainable future, agriculture needs to co-exist with nature. First, the soil on which the food crops are grown must be managed properly. Through continuous use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, the microbial ecosystem, which is very much needed for healthy growth of the crops, is jeopardized. This ecosystem has to be revitalized and this can be achieved through soil microbial restoration. Careful selection of effective consortium of beneficial microorganisms using biotechnological approaches is very crucial in revitalizing the soil and promoting plant growth. With better plant growth, plant immunity is also stimulated and tolerance to pests and diseases is enhanced. Second, pollinating insects such as bees should be nurtured, and natural resources such as birds must be utilized to feed on insect pests rather than using large amounts of pesticides. Consecutively, farmers need to be urgently educated on their co-existence and the need to synergistically work with the environment rather than against it. If they do not start now, our vital resources will be continuously degraded and the ability to produce enough food for the future will be exhausted.\nAre we aiming at the correct goals when producing food to satisfy our taste buds? For the first time in history we have as many overweight people as undernourished people. The modern food environment is a remarkable source of pleasure, far richer than is needed by our body which very often led us on as disastrous journey to human health. This is tied in with our agriculture policy that mainly focuses on production and trade and is curiously dissociated from the vital issues of good nutrition. We need to actively shift our focus to the production of more nutritious or healthy foods. Most of us know that diet plays a key role in determining health but with the knowledge gained from frontier sciences, we now acknowledge that the type of food we eat can actually affect expression of genes related to health, either causing a wide range of diet related to health. Choosing the correct meals but on fruits, vegetables, legumes and whole grains which are high in bioactive components, is the best way to stay healthy as validated by voluminous amounts of scientific data. At the research front, the focus should be towards defining the goals in terms of nutritional value rather than simply having \u201cmore production\u201d.\nDo we need a profound re-assessment of our current utilization of food resources and food system so that they can better serve our future needs? We may need to explore other options of food security issues and this may lead us to a very different path. One example of a good alternative food crop is algae. Although located at the bottom of the food chain, algae is capable of providing a rich nutritious food source for mankind. It grows very rapidly in the ocean and does not require land and fresh water which is becoming increasingly scarce worldwide. Food industrialists predict that algae farming could become the world\u2019s biggest cropping industry of the future not only due to its richness in nutritional composition but also because of its high productivity where certain microalgae are 20 times more productive than conventional crops.\nIn conclusion, it is timely to stress that \u201cbusiness as usual in food production\u201d is no longer a viable option. We need a broader vision and bolder ideas to help nourish our people in a manner that is environmentally sustainable. Rather than simply \u201cmore\u201d production, we must also consider what would be \u201cbetter\u201d production with healthier food systems. The choices we make today on the type of food produced will make an incredible amount of difference for the future of our children and the planet we live in.\n*This article was published in MARDI\u2019s Newsletter Scientia Vol 9, 2016.\nhttps://www.scribd.com/document/334270501/Scientia-MARDI-Vol-009-Disember-2016",

        "raw_content": "Web Nolan\nAt root of Mideast conflict is injustice to Palestinians\nIN MAKING his case that Israel is the \"right side\" in the continuing Mideast conflict, Mike Miyashiro (\"Gathering Place,\" July 30) asserts that the \"one who has made efforts for peace is morally right. The one who proclaims death to the other is morally wrong.\" He condemns Hamas and Hezbollah, supporting Israel's right to self-defense, though not conceding the same right to the Palestinians and Lebanese.\nIn the long and heated debate about the Mideast, one question that persists is this: Why do so many Palestinians and their allies continue to fight against such a powerful enemy?\nISRAEL has the best-trained and best-equipped military force in the region, thanks mostly to the U.S. government. It has nuclear weapons and runs an intelligence operation that is legendary for its exploits. It is gaining economic strength on the world stage, especially in high-tech, while 4 million Palestinians remain mired in poverty. So, after 60 years of struggle, why don't the Palestinians take what they can get and live in peace, even on is it's on Israeli terms?\nMiyashiro bases his argument on his view of Mideast history. Likewise, the answer to the question of Palestinian persistence also lies in the past. There are many places to start, as far back as the mid-19th century and the birth of Zionism, but a good beginning is right after World War II, when thousands of European Jews who had survived the horrors of the Shoah were trying to migrate to their ancient homeland, then called the British Mandate of Palestine.\nGREAT Britain, impoverished by the war and unwilling to cope with the continuing bloodshed in Palestine, withdrew and turned the problem over to the newly created United Nations. The U.N. appointed a commission, which recommended partitioning the territory, creating two states, and on Nov. 29, 1947, the General Assembly voted 33-13 in favor. The United States, Soviet Union, European and most Asia and Latin America members supported the measure, while every country in the region, Arabs, Turkey, Greece and Iran, opposed it.\nTwo aspects of the vote provide clues to the answer about Palestinian persistence. The first is that the United States violated its own founding principle that a government derives its legitimacy from the consent of the governed. The Palestinians, who naturally rejected partition of their own country, comprised 67 percent of the population at the time. The second is that the entire region opposed the measure, a clear indication of serious trouble ahead.\nTHE next year, Secretary of State George C. Marshall advised President Truman against recognizing Israel when its leaders were about to declare statehood. Marshall feared that the United States might be drawn into a war at the very time we were trying to rehabilitate the world economy. But he lost the argument when, shortly after Israel announced itself as a state on May 14, 1948, Truman declared diplomatic recognition for the new nation. (In announcing statehood, Israel literally wiped Palestine off the map, so it's no wonder that some of her enemies use similar phraseology about Israel today.)\nAt about the same time that Truman was recognizing Israel, the neighboring Arab nations attacked the Israelis from the south, east and north. To the surprise of many experts, the Israelis defeated the Palestinians and their allies, as they have in five major wars since then.\nThe U.N. eventually secured a cease-fire and sought to mediate a settlement. The Palestinians rejected every proposal on the grounds that the Israelis were an illegitimate occupying military force, a conviction they hold to this day.\nIN 1950, the Israeli government passed the \"Absentee Property Law,\" which in effect confiscated land and other property that the fleeing Palestinians had left. In 1980, the Israeli Custodian of Absentee Property estimated that Palestinians, individually or through businesses or their former government, had owned up to 70 percent of all land in Palestine in 1947. The Jewish National Fund gave a higher estimate.\nThe U.N. estimated that the number of Palestinian refugees (those who lost both homes and means of support) was 914,000 in 1950, and that they and their descendants now number 4.9 million.\nThis brief summary, based mostly on U.N. documents, does not cover the immense complexities of the Mideast conflict but does attempt to explain why the Palestinians and their supporters believe so strongly in their cause. History tells them that other occupied peoples eventually recovered their lands and their self-determination.\nWebster Nolan is a retired journalist.",

        "title": "Congress approves Internet-tax moratorium - latimes",
        "raw_content": "Congress approves Internet-tax moratorium\nOctober 31, 2007|Jim Puzzanghera | Times Staff Writer\nWASHINGTON \u2014 State and local officials looking for some extra scratch by taxing your dial-up, cable or DSL Internet-access services will have to live with a seven-year itch after Congress on Tuesday banned those fees until 2014.\nThe House unanimously approved a seven-year extension of a moratorium on Internet-access taxes, which the Senate passed last week. The move cleared the way for President Bush to sign it before the current ban expires Thursday.\nFor consumers, the legislation largely maintains the status quo: No Internet-access taxes except in the nine states that were grandfathered when the ban was first put in place in 1998. California is not among them.\nThe legislation applies only to Internet-access taxes, not to sales taxes for online purchases. But it addresses a concern by many lawmakers, technology companies and Internet-service providers that consumers could see the same itemized taxes on their Net-access bills that now appear on their phone and TV cable bills. A monthly phone bill can include as much as $10 in taxes.\n\"This legislation will help keep the cost of Internet access down so that all individuals can continue to use the great informational tool that is the Internet,\" Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) said. He and other lawmakers said the legislation would give telecommunications companies the certainty they needed to continue investing in the infrastructure to extend high-speed Internet access throughout the country.\nIn helping push the extension through Congress, the technology industry showed it was learning the art of the deal in Washington: Ask for a lot, but be willing to compromise.\nMajor technology companies, including Google Inc., Yahoo Inc. and EBay Inc., formed a coalition with powerful allies, particularly phone and cable companies, and pushed hard for a permanent extension. But they said they were happy to settle for seven years, the longest extension yet.\n\"It's a recognition by members of Congress of the impact of our industry on the economy,\" said Mike Platt, vice president for government and political affairs at TechNet, an industry trade group that was part of the Don't Tax Our Web coalition.\nFor the young technology industry, the lengthy extension is a legislative victory that shows its clout has grown in Washington during the last decade. Still, the industry continues to have trouble when facing a formidable lobbying opponent.\nIn this case, it was state and local governments, which were concerned that they could lose the ability to tax phone and TV services as more consumers get them delivered over the Internet. Governors and local officials, who have strong ties to many members of Congress, successfully derailed the push for a permanent ban and got the definition of Internet access changed to make clear that phone and TV services delivered online are taxable. Many state and local governments depend on money from taxing those services.\nGroups such as the National Governors Assn. and the California Assn. of Counties said they knew of no governments planning to tax Internet access, but they argued that a permanent ban would make it difficult to change the definition in the future to avoid exempting other taxable services. They were pushing for a four-year extension instead of seven.\n\"A shorter amount of time means if a mistake was made in a definition we could have gotten to it quicker,\" said David Quam, director of federal relations for the National Governors Assn. \"The important thing is it remains temporary.\"\nIn a change pushed by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), the legislation also clarifies that services related to Internet access, such as instant messaging, e-mail and personal online storage, are not taxable. The move should end continual rumors that Congress was weighing an e-mail tax.\nIn addition, the bill requires a few states to phase out taxes on wholesale purchases of Internet access. Some companies, including wireless providers, use that access to connect their networks to the Internet backbone. States must stop taxing that access by June 30.\nTuesday's 402-0 vote by the House follows the Senate's unanimous passage of the extension last week. Senators who wanted a permanent ban on Internet taxes succeeded in lengthening a four-year extension passed overwhelmingly by the House on Oct. 16.\nThis is the third time the ban has been extended. Although the White House has pushed for a permanent extension, Bush is expected to sign the bill.\nRep. Anna G. Eshoo (D-Menlo Park), who represents much of Silicon Valley, said the growing number of technology companies and the role the Internet plays in daily life made it easier than in the past to get a lengthy extension of the ban.\n\"It's a great contributor to our national economy, and I think that's unquestionable,\" said Eshoo, who worked to pass the original moratorium in 1998 and was a leading backer of a permanent extension this time. \"This is now integrated into the life of every member of Congress, their families and their children and their communities. . . . That experience makes a difference.\"\nHouse backs extension of ban on Internet access taxes\nLines are drawn on Internet access tax\nHouse Votes Unanimously to Permanently Ban Internet Access...\nFederal Panel Urges Ban on Internet Access Taxes",

        "raw_content": "Articles Software Security & Privacy Could Jewelry Be the Next Step in Security?\nCould Jewelry Be the Next Step in Security?\nA few months ago, Google announced that the company would be getting rid of the standard password. In it\u2019s place, Google execs mentioned some type of individualized hardware. Now, Google is testing various rings that can be used in place of passwords to log into secure sites. Users could then wear the rings, and use the rings to log into any kind of mail or other account.\nUsing a ring to log into an account may sound very James Bond, but it\u2019s a step that might be worth considering. After all, it\u2019s too easy for hackers to snag alphanumeric passwords, and too hard for users to change passwords regularly. Could a ring be the answer to password problems?\nThe Rings Google Is Testing\nThe encrypted rings being tested by Google do not contain password information. Instead, these rings respond to mathematical questions posed by various websites. The correct ring can only answer the answers to these questions. Sound confusing? Well, in a way, it is. It\u2019s not entirely clear how Google will use the rings. The rings could come in USB form, though a Google spokesperson has told press that some people are not really comfortable with USB passwords, so it\u2019s unlikely that the company will go this route.\nGoogle reps also told press that the idea behind the rings is a universal one. Google wants users to be able to wear a ring to a friend\u2019s house, open up a Google browser, and let the ring do its thing. It may sound like Google is taking cues from Lord of the Rings, but a ring that holds all of your personal information could be a good thing \u2013 or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it.\nWhen Google\u2019s Rings Will Surface\nGoogle is still working on the rings in question. For now, the company is remaining relatively silent about the status of the rings, the company that is manufacturing the rings, and other details. But, it certainly looks as though the future of the password will come in a different shape and form. Of course, the danger of a ring is that it can be lost or stolen, but Google chalks this up to being no more or less dangerous than a debit or credit card.\nThe difference here is that users will wear Google rings. Presumably, you will have to purchase a Google password ring, though this information is not clear at this time. How much the rings will sell for, what they will look like, and other details are also unclear. How do you feel about wearing a Google ring to log into your email, Google Docs, and other Google programs? Is it too easy for a hacker to simply snag a Google ring?\nSeemingly, Google will have to make these rings look like any other ring. Otherwise, wearing a ring that states \u201cGoogle\u201d will be like wearing a moving target. Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see how users log into Google sites in the near future. Google is serious about privacy, that much is clear.",

        "raw_content": "The Reverse Moving Average Control Chart for Monitoring Autocorrelated Processes - ASQ\nThe Reverse Moving Average Control Chart for Monitoring Autocorrelated Processes\nForecast-based monitoring schemes have been researched extensively in regards to applying traditional control charts to forecast errors arising from various autocorrelated processes. The dynamic response and behavior of forecast errors after experiencing a shift in the process mean make it difficult to choose a suitable control chart. In this paper we propose the reverse moving average control chart as a new forecast-based monitoring scheme, compare the new control chart to traditional methods applied to various ARMA(1,1), AR(1), and MA(1) processes, and make recommendations concerning the most appropriate control chart to use in a variety of situations when charting autocorrelated processes.\nKey Words: Autocorrelation, Autoregressive Moving Average, Exponentially Weighted Moving Average, Forecasting Techniques, Statistical Process Control.\nBy JOHN N. DYER Georgia Southern University, Statesboro, GA 30460\nBENJAMIN M. ADAMS and MICHAEL D. CONERLY University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487\nMOST traditional control charts have been designed to monitor output from independent and identically distributed (iid) processes. When output data are autocorrelated, the traditional charts applied to the data have been shown to be unreliable (Maragah and Woodall (1992) and Harris and Ross (1991)). Recent advances have provided forecastbased monitoring schemes to address this problem.\nA forecast-based monitoring scheme involves identifying the proper time-series model which characterizes a process, obtaining the appropriate Box- Jenkins one-step-ahead (OSA) forecast of process observations, and then applying traditional control charts to forecast errors (Alwan and Roberts (1988), Wardell, Moskowitz, and Plante (1994), Lin and Adams (1996), Lu and Reynolds (1999a, 1999b, 2001)). If the assumed time-series model is correct, the forecast errors are iid normal random variables. Hence, in-control performance of the traditional con- trol charting techniques is predictable, enabling monitoring for detection of shifts in the process mean level. Two types of shifts in the process can be considered. A step (level) shift is said to occur if the process mean suddenly changes to a new level. A trend occurs when there is a gradual shift to a new process level. Step shifts alone are considered in this paper.\nThe magnitude of the shift in the process can be measured either in terms of the white noise variance, , or in terms of the process variance, . Process shifts are reported here in terms of the white noise variance since it remains constant, whereas the process variance varies depending upon the assumed model. For a given stationary model and white noise variance, the shift size in terms of the process variance can be determined if one so chooses.\nRead Full Article (PDF, 225 KB)\nhttp://asq.org/pub/jqt/past/vol35_issue2/qtec-35-2-139.html",

In practice, this is not particularly useful, because the large number of objects present can be rather confusing, and evolution of the system is slow.\nThe other simulations are all derived from Solar System by deleting unwanted objects and/or by combining planets with their unwanted moons. These simulations are much easier to work with, and evolve more quickly - in some cases much more quickly.",

        "title": "Set Goals NOT New Year Resolutions",
        "raw_content": "I don\u2019t like New Year\u2019s Resolutions \u2013 they don\u2019t work!\nThis is the time of year people go on a juice-fast to lose weight, give up alcohol \u2018forever\u2019, become a 100% raw foodie overnight, join a gym for their \u2018dream body by the end of January\u2019, say they will stop stressing, etc. Rarely does anyone achieve their resolutions \u2013 instead they perceive themselves as a failure, feel guilty and miserable, and give up altogether.\nWell, if putting unrealistic expectations on ourselves isn\u2019t the biggest recipe for disaster with our fitness and health, then I don\u2019t know what is.\nPutting extreme pressure on ourselves and having such unrealistic expectations, ultimately DOES result in failure \u2013 the juice fast person usually gains weight when they start eating normally, the raw foodie will feel hungry and crave food endlessly, the non-drinker will probably go on a booze binge, and the gym membership is paid for but unused after the 14th of January. This of course just results in a vicious cycle, and the person is back where they don\u2019t want to be; without progress \u2013 and actually feeling worse about him/herself.\nAs a personal trainer and nutrition coach, the biggest thing I notice when people come to me for guidance with their fitness and health, is that previously they have been made to believe they have to do everything at once, and that \u201call or nothing\u201d is the only option and solution. When in fact, this extreme way of thinking is destructive, counter-productive to progress, and is actually guaranteed to set someone up to fail. Unfortunately this approach is promoted everywhere we look in the media, and sadly, also by many fitness and health \u2018professionals\u2019.\nSo, rather than people putting unrealistic \u2018resolutions\u2019 in place this first week of January, I would love to see achievable \u2018goal setting\u2019 instead. For example, \u201cJuice Fasting \u201c, could be replaced with \u201cDrink a fresh juice daily\u201d, which is much more manageable and productive in the long run.\nYes, there may be some people who can manage extreme and sudden changes, and maintain them, but it is a miniscule number of the population who can succeed this way \u2013 the majority of people find it overwhelming and simply unachievable.\nThe best way to remove an unhealthy or other negative aspect from our life, is undoubtedly to GRADUALLY replace it with a better option, and then soon we find that we do not miss it anymore \u2013 in other words, we create a new habit.\nNumerous research studies have been carried out demonstrating it takes several weeks to form a new habit; to the point where the new behaviour has become automatic and comfortable. So expecting everything to happen overnight, and that we will be able to maintain such a quick change FOREVER, and lots of changes at once, is unrealistic, and simply not healthy for the mind or body. If changes are required for us to live a better life, it is important the transition is actioned in a way that we can manage for the long-term.\nFor example, many people aim to go vegan overnight. They throw away all their animal products, and do not research how to replace them with healthy plant options. As a result they often don\u2019t eat properly, so end up with low energy, food cravings, and basically malnourished. Then they inevitably start to think eating plant-based is unhealthy, when nothing could actually be farther from the truth. No-one can eat only salad though, or live on vegan junk food like faux meat products with chips, and still be healthy. It is important we obtain a certain type and amount of macronutrients and micronutrients from our food; so our body and mind can function well. Knowing what are good plant protein sources for example, is essential. Okay, we do not need to eat the huge amounts of protein the animal product industries would like us to believe is necessary, but we do need to eat a certain amount of protein daily (which is easily obtainable from particular plant foods). If someone spends time preparing for the transition to eating plant-based by establishing how he/she will create this new habit, and what their food goals need to be for long-term health, then he/she will guarantee success. By increasingly adding alternative plant proteins and non-dairy/egg options to his/her diet over a few weeks (while gradually using up their animal products), someone will soon find that all the animal products he/she was consuming have already been replaced, and are not being missed at all. Going \u2018cold turkey\u2019 (pardon the pun), without researching and finding alternative products, is simply too difficult for most of us. Change takes time.\nTherefore, to succeed with goals (by creating new habits), planning is imperative. If we do not have a system in place for how to achieve what we want, we are destined to lose. As Benjamin Franklin, very wisely once said, \u201cBy failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail\u201d.\nSo this January, let\u2019s all make New Year\u2019s Goals instead \u2013 which are effectively planned! A fantastic way to do this is to use the tried-and-tested \u2018S.M.A.R.T\u2019 goal-setting method \u2013 by making sure goals are Specific, Measureable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-based.\nLet\u2019s all spend some time really thinking about where we want to be this time next year. Let\u2019s ask ourselves questions that ensure we succeed \u2013 What do I want to achieve? How am I actually going to do it? What challenges am I going to face? What preparation do I need to make? Do I need a coach/mentor to assist me? How much time will it realistically take me? What will motivate me to keep going? What stages of progress are required for me to succeed?\nPlease let us not start 2018 with the same old resolutions that most know deep down are not going to be resolute at all.\nAnyone can set a resolution that doesn\u2019t eventuate, and which ends up on next year\u2019s list. Setting goals though that are achieved through a clear plan and dedication, and which can be maintained, well, that is something very special indeed.\nWith best wishes for 2017 \u2013 this is your year!\nI hope you find these goal-setting tips helpful.

I got to meet him personally on a few occasions. One particular occasion was when he put on a fest called Death Or Glory at Rise Above in San Antonio. Skip worked out for Elphie and I to have somewhere to sleep overnight while we were there. It was a cool trip to Texas and a cool event.\nSkip passed away after fighting cancer. These are all the videos I have shot that included Skip...either just him speaking or while he was playing in bands such as Crush The Enemy and Our Corpse Destroyed. Most of these videos were shot over the years at Cornerstone or Unified Underground.\nRest in Glory.\nYou are a great man, Skip and you are missed and loved.\nhttps://youtu.be/wtaQG9MmhGw\nWe departed for Warren on November 22nd, for our yearly Thanksgiving visit with Stein in tow. Along the way, in Indiana I was pulled over but the police officer was unusually reasonable and let us go. I took that as a warning and drove a bit slower the rest of the way. We stopped at a Sheetz for some food once we got off the turnpike in Ohio. We arrived as usual in the wee hours of the morning and it turned out that the burger I ate was not agreeing with me.\nThursday November 23rd, brought our annual Thanksgiving with the Sorensen family in Clymer, NY at my cousin Brynne's house. I had to take some Pepto to try to enjoy the meal. Other than that, it was good spending time with the family.\nFriday November 24th, was a fairly relaxed day watching our pets interact. It turns out that our cat, Stein, is a bit of a bully. He walks around with his head cocked to the side stalking the other cats, including Mu who is at least twice his size.\nWe made our wat to Pittsburgh on Saturday November 25th, to catch the Penguins play the Lightning and WIN! We passed the Dairy Queen with an Apollo Capsule along the way on Route 8. When in Pittsburgh, we got some ice cream at Klavon's before the game and afterwards, we went to Roland's for some Lobster Rolls and Ravioli and to hang with Joe a bit. It was a good visit to my favorite city! Upon returning home, once again the quest for dominance continued with the cats.\nWe returned to Chicago on Sunday November 26th.\nAdditonal soundtrack is \u201cThankful\u201d by Caedmon\u2019s Call and \u201cParty Hard\u201d by Andrew WK.\nhttps://youtu.be/1GKnsvCxVqQ\nDecember in Chicago:\nAfter returning from Thanksgiving, on Friday December 1st, Elphie and I went to Chicago Theatre to see Nick Offerman on his \"Full Bush\" tour. I snuck a clip even though it was a no recording event. On the way home, I took a shot of the full moon. The next day, December 2nd, was a long day. We started out by going to Racine, Wisconsin for Ray and Z's wedding reception at George's Tavern. On the way home we stopped at a Piggly Wiggly for some cheese curds then passed under a Canadian Pacific Holiday Train. It turned out that we returned to our neighborhood in time to see the CTA Holiday Trains come through as well. Later that night, we attended the winter edition of Nocturna at Metro. On December 3rd, we returned to Wrigleyville to attend Krampus Mart at the Gman Tavern.\nhttps://youtu.be/kLvIaxbmPDg\nOf Dust And Nations by Thrice LIVE @ Aragon Ballroom\nI ended up waiting too long and the day of the Thrice show, Thursday December 7th, 2017, I found out that it was sold out when I made attempts to purchase tickets. I found someone on facebook who said that they were selling a ticket so I gave it a shot. They met me at the venue and sold the ticket for face value so I got to see Thrice. It was one of the better experiences I have had of seeing Thrice in Chicago. I believe it is due to the venue set up giving a little more space to watch. I filmed Of Dust And Nations...it was a song I've wanted to capture for a while. In hindsight, maybe I should have captured something from the Alchemy Index series since it was being celebrated that night. At this time, we were trying to save some money for going to Europe in the coming months but I did want to see this show and didn't think $30 was going to break the bank.\nOn December 13th, after a wonderful work related meeting in downtown, While waiting for the train to commute back home another CTA Holiday Train passed through. On December 16th the Wright girls had a Christmas party at their house. Later that night we drove to Kenosha, Wisconsin for Screened 2: Solstice Slammed at Mayhem Manor. It was an interesting night of VHS video on a bunch of tube televisions and music with a lit up floor. On December 18th, Elphie and I went to the Lincoln Park Zoo Lights then to the ChristkindlMarkt at the Daley Center the next day, December 19th. On December 20th, we held a Christmas Party at Cornerstone Community Outreach. On December 21st at Chitown Futbol we were part of a surprise birthday party for Kyle Bawinkel just after the band got off tour. It was fun and it seems the surprise worked out fairly well.\nAdditional soundtrack includes \u201cSanta\u2019s on MLK Blvd\u201d & \u201cHoliday House Party\u201d by Dark-Keys, \u201cCarol of the Dubs\u201d by A Heart Of Black & White, \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by Open World, \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by Jagged Doctrine, and \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by Accolade.\nhttps://youtu.be/J6vs5WcKplc\nWe left for Cincinnati on December 22nd after I got off of work. We stopped at the Sheehy's to rest over night and got some time in to visit with them. In the morning, December 23rd, we had breakfast. Lisa stopped by to visit before we had to start down the road to North Carolina. We arrived in the evening.\nDecember 24th, we celebrated Christmas with family on Christmas Eve. We spend December 25th, Christmas Day with family as well and had dinner at IHOP then viewed the McAdenville lights. Throughout the rest of the week we hung out with family and friends. We stopped by R.O.'s for Bar-B-Que. We also had dinner one evening at Whiskey Mill. We made a trip into South Carolina for gas as well as another visit with a friend at Pop Pops Pizza. We stayed in North Carolina to visit and celebrate Christmas with family and friends until December 28th.\nAdditional soundtrack includes \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by Accolade, \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by Timbre, \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by The Last Bison, \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by Future Of Forestry, \u201cCarol of the Bells\u201d by MAE, and \u201cRing Christmas Bells (Carol of the Bells)\u201d by Folk Angel featuring Tedashii.\nhttps://youtu.be/rxgJY7RWJAk\nA Shared Life: The Holidays - New Years Eve 2017\nOn December 29th, we began our return drive from North Carolina. We stopped to visit with Elphie's niece along the way as well as at a diner to pick up some special Cherry Lemon SunDrop. We made our way north and west through the mountains toward Cincinnati where apparently there was a winter storm coming. We had to slow down somewhat but made it to the Sheehy's house with little difficulty and I was able to pick up some Skyline Chili to eat as well. We hung out for the evening with the Sheehy's and Lisa. Other friends didn't want to venture out due to the inclement weather.\nWe woke on December 30th, had breakfast with the Sheehy's then continued on our way to Chicago in single digit cold. I stopped at a Meijer as we left Ohio to pick up some Ale-8-One. We got to see a nice sunset as we drove and we made it home and the car seemed to survive the extreme cold.\nOn December 31st, because it was so cold we decided to not venture out to do anything to bring in the New Year. We stayed home and watched the events on television. The one event I would have liked to attend was Flatfoot 56 with Flogging Molly at the House of Blues and we were able to see a live shot from that party as well from the comfort of our living room.\nAdditional soundtrack includes \u201cCarols Gloria\u201d by Said Fantasy and \u201cHoliday House Party\u201d by Dark-Keys.\n11.03.2018: Jay Phillips Memorial Show @ Oscar's Bar & The Final F.B.S. Show\nOn Saturday November 3rd, 2018 an era came to an end at Oscar's Bar in Vanadalia, Ohio. It more or less really came to an end about a year earlier but official finals shows were set to occur in November which turned into one final show with a slightly different cast.\nFight Before Surrender (or F.B.S.) was a mainstay in the regional punk scene as well as the underground Christian punk scene for about 20 years. Things happened that brought it to a screeching halt in October 2017...no last show planned. It was just the end. Then, this summer, there was rumbling about the band getting together for the last time for a couple of shows which turned into a plan for two final shows with the original lineup playing the first album front to back. I was pretty excited and planned to catch the show. It sounds like the idea came mostly from Jay Phillips. It was only days after these shows were announced that Jay passed away unexpectedly and the effect was felt throughout the scene and by many of my friends. I did not personally know Jay but I could tell he had a huge impact on many that I did know. The shows, of course, could not go on without Jay and were cancelled.\nIn the coming week or so, it was then announced that the final lineup of F.B.S. would \"put aside their differences\" to play one final show with the details to be announced. Once again, I planned to find a way to be in Ohio to see this final show. I also planned to record it.\nOther folks then started talking about getting a car pool planned to get a group of us from Chicago to Ohio for this show. There was even an idea to rent out the Reggies Party Bus. I talked to my friends who had brought up the idea as well as with a couple others but with one week to go, there still was not a definitive plan on how to make this car pool happen. That's where Tobin Bawinkel (Flatfoot 56 and 6'10) stepped in offering to drive the new tour van if we had enough people. We did, in fact, get enough people to make it feasible (thank you Tobin!) and we departed early Saturday afternoon for Ohio, stopping to pick up Little Jessi along the way in Indiana. At some point between Indianapolis and the Ohio state line, Tobin opened his window but it would not close so we had to pull off to try to figure out the electronics that operate the window. It did not seem to succeed so Elphie offered her hat and we sent blankets up to try to brave the cold air blasting through the window. Miraculously, the window ended up working after a few moments on the road and we proceeded to Oscar's Bar for the show. We arrived just before the first band played.\nOur main reason for coming out, of course was F.B.S. who would play in the middle of the evening so it gave us time to meet up with various friends who came out to the show. It was good to see so many people come out to support a band and a person that meant so much to so many. There was a lot of emotion as the set came to a close...I think both for the loss of a friend in Jay but also for the loss of a band many of us would consider to be a friend if not family after so many years.\nF.B.S. did not disappoint...you can count on them playing loud, fast, punk which is typically 10 or so songs clocking in at about a 20-25 minute set. This set was double what we usually get with stories peppered in about Jay. Elphie offered to help film the set so I had two angles to work with for the project.\nThe Final F.B.S. Set\nThe Final Setlist:\nHammer fist RocknRoll\nAll I Want To Do Is RocknRoll\nFaster Than Before\nFight Before Surrender\nDreadful Rumor opened the night. It was their first show and they were pretty good.\nDeadful Rumor\nViceroy Kings played next. One member, GeeGee, was with The Migraines some years ago (others from that band went on to form Grave Robber). I recall in college hearing about The Migraines and \"Five Bucks Short\" as F.B.S. was known then so there is a lot of history with these guys it would seem.\nVoltageHawk was third on the bill and came from Nashville to play this show. The drummer was the original Five Bucks Short drummer. He invited Josh and Charlie up to sing \"I Fought The Law\" to close the set.\nVoltageHawk\nBetty Machete And The Angry Cougars followed the F.B.S. set and all the emotion that came with it. It seems that they followed it up quite well with a lot of energy, intensity and grit that a band like this would seemingly have to have. I heard later in the night from Josh that F.B.S. played with Betty Machete a few years ago during a Noise For Toys event and was impressed by the intensity.\nBetty Machete And The Angry Cougars\nBundy And The Spins was the last band I got to see as we had to get going back to Chicago. They were quite shiny in their sequined jackets and seemed like a fun rocknroll band.\nBundy And The Spins\nApologies to The Frankx. My crew wanted to get back on the road for the long trip home so I was not able to catch any of the set. I had hoped to get a little bit but it just did not work out unfortunately.\nFilmed LIVE during Jay Phillips\u2019 Memorial at Oscar\u2019s Bar in Vandalia, Ohio on Saturday November 3rd, 2018 using a Canon Rebel T6 & iPhone 6 by Elphie and Joel A. Swanson. Edited using Final Cut Pro on a Mac Mini by Joel A. Swanson.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL86BB1A5E271770F7\nThe first time that I saw F.B.S. play was at Cornerstone 2008 on the Underground Stage. It is highly likely I saw them in 2007 as well if not 2006 but I don't seem to have video evidence to prove it so we will go with 2008. Either way it was definitely at Cornerstone. This last show on November 3rd, 2018 marks the end of the band so it would seem I have about a decade of videos. I probably saw F.B.S. at every Cornerstone Festival that they played from that point on as well until the end of Cornerstone in 2012. In late 2008, when the opportunity came to begin booking shows in Cincinnati at Covenant, bands that I focused on reaching out to were bands I saw at Cornerstone...especially the punk bands.\nI would guess in 2009 was when F.B.S. and I connected to work out a show that would happen on January 12th, 2010 at Covenant. F.B.S. was involved with Rise Above Ministries at the time in San Antonio, Texas. I enjoyed having some hockey banter with Josh as I knew he was a Detroit Red Wings fan and the Pittsburgh Penguins had just beat them for the Stanley Cup the previous season! Ultimately, sports banter caused for Josh to unfriend me on facebook some years later, ha! Anyway, this show at Covenant went fairly well and brought in some new people that I had not reached in previous shows. It seemed that this show is where attendance picked up a little bit for the rest of the shows I would do at Covenant.\nOver the next few years, as I transitioned away from the church to doing Witler basement shows and occasionally booking with The 86, F.B.S. would come through from time to time. Josh called me to ask about booking a tour featuring F.B.S. with Headnoise. I definitely agreed to doing this show but a few weeks before the tour was to begin, Josh called to let me know that F.B.S. would have to drop due to unforeseen circumstances. I believe this tour was intended to bring them home to Ohio...I know Nate moved back to Ohio around this time. I went ahead with the show anyway & it brought about the first ever acoustic Headnoise set due to a power outage.\nA few months after this, there was a show scheduled for a venue called Bangarangs (formerly known as The Mad Hatter and now it is a park?). I don't quite recall all the circumstances surrounding this show but I do remember that Grave Robber and Behold The Kingdom were scheduled to play this show. If I am remembering correctly, I was talking with Shawn about something other than the show when word came that the venue would be dropping the show. I believe this was a day or so before the show...I offered to take it on in my basement but I could not guarantee anything but they could at least have a show. I believe Josh contacted me about F.B.S. playing as well at that point so I started working on getting some locals on board as well then I was contacted by folks with Bangarangs stating there was some miscommunication and asking if they could take the show back at their venue. I said it was fine with me if they could work it out with the bands. I was working as all this was going on so organizing the show wasn't easy in the midst of trying to do my \"day job\" but I said that they needed to take F.B.S. as well now that they had been added to the show during the couple of hours in which it was to be happening in my basement. Then another band that used the initials F.B.S. thought that they had been booked on this show and contacted Bangarangs to dispute the booking so I had to explain the band was a different F.B.S. and thankfully, the show did happen at Bangarangs and F.B.S. was able to play and they stayed the night at my place because they were able to get on another show in the area with Grave Robber and Behold The Kingdom the next night.\nI was able to book F.B.S. for one Witler basement before the shows had to come to an untimely end. It was the first of two shows my band, Crash Cap Hooligans played. The idea to start this band came during another F.B.S. show I booked for The 86 in March.\nI also booked F.B.S. at The 86 in August which was the first show with Russ on drums (Russ drummed for Crash Cap Hooligans as well). Speaking of drummers, over the course of this time of video documentation there were at least five drummers that I can recall: Andrew, Jose, Russ, Ryan, and some other guy between Andrew and Jose who I did not know.\nIn October, F.B.S. allowed me to ride along to Unified Underground in Maryland. This weekend trip was a lot of fun! Later that year, I booked F.B.S. to play the last show that I booked and one of the last shows that I would work for The 86 before moving to Pittsburgh.\nAfter this, our paths typically crossed at various yearly events such as Unified Underground and the newly formed Audiofeed. I made my way to San Antonio for Death or Glory Fest at Rise Above and caught F.B.S. in Austin along the way. I never got into the game of booking shows really in Pittsburgh. There were decent spots already established and there did not seem to be a need for me to do it myself. Also, a blossoming relationship sort of took priority.\nWhile moving to Chicago, F.B.S. played at Risen Savior where I would attend church for a time the first day I was in Chicago as part of a Noise for Toys benefit. In 2016 there would be another one at Wilson Abbey. It was after the move to Chicago that I started to attend Take Hold Fest and caught F.B.S. there a couple of times as well.\nI ended up booking one more show after leaving The 86. This would be what I called a RocknRoll Wedding Celebration the night before my wedding with Elphie. F.B.S. was booked for this show and I was able to get my digital copy of the long anticipated album Self-Destruction (the vinyl had come a month earlier).\nThe final Unified Underground Conference was at Take Hold in Grand Rapids, Michigan and F.B.S. was playing. I started having some car trouble so I asked Josh to ride with me to try to decipher strange noises coming from the car. On our way back to Take Hold, the car jammed in 3rd gear so we pushed it into a parking lot and Elphie and I ended up stranded in Grand Rapids, Michigan for our first anniversary.\nPrior to this final show, the last time I was able to see or even hang with the guys in F.B.S. was at Audiofeed 2017.\nI am very thankful for the decade I spent watching and recording F.B.S. on stage and even more so, the friendship and the times spent hanging out beyond the shows. I wish circumstances were different. I wish the band did not have to end. I believe our friendship will remain though it may not be in quite as loud, fast, or punk of a setting as before.\nThank you F.B.S. for all these years!\nThank you Josh, Charlie, Ryan, Nate, Kristen, Andrew, Russ, and Jose for the friendship!\n11.03.2018: Jay Phillips Memorial Show @ Oscar's B...",

        "raw_content": "Battleships (also known as \"Solitaire Battleships\", \"Battleship Solitaire\") is a logic puzzle based on the Battleships guessing game. In a square grid of 10 x 10 small squares, an armada of battleships is located. There is one battleship of 4 squares, two cruisers of 3 squares, three destroyers of 2 squares, and four submarines of 1 square. Each ship occupies a number of contiguous squares on the grid, arranged either horizontally or vertically. The boats are placed so that no boat touches any other boat, not even diagonally.\nThe numbers on the bottom and on the right of the grid show how many squares in the corresponding rows and columns are occupied by ships. Occasionally some squares may contain given ship or water segments as hints to help start the puzzle. The object is to discover where all ships are located.\nCross+A allows to solve the variations of Battleships puzzle, where the frequency of each type of ship differs from the normal distribution.\nIn Digital Battleships all cells of the grid contain numbers. The values on the right and bottom edges of the grid reveal the sum of the numbers in each of the ship pieces that appear in each respective row or column.\nRetrograde Battleships (\"Reverse Battleships\") contains all segments of the ships in the grid. The aim is to find the correct locations of the ships. No ship may touch another, even diagonally.",

The following century saw England emerge as a united political entity as the children and grandchildren of King Alfred the Great expelled the Danes. Between these two emergent nations was the Kingdom of Northumbria which stretched from the River Humber to the River Forth. Control and influence over this important buffer zone alternated between the two emergent Kingdoms. In AD 927 it was reduced to an Earldom and incorporated into England under King Athelstan. However, in 1018 Malcolm II of Scotland won a decisive victory at the Battle of Carham and took control of all land to the north of the River Tweed effectively splitting the territory. The Earldom remained divided after the Norman invasion of England with William I appointing strong magnates to control the English held portion. However, the Scottish Kings continued to regard the lands of northern England as theirs and looked for opportunities to recover them.\nWilliam I died in 1087 and his vast domains - England and Normandy - were divided amongst his two eldest sons. Robert Curthose succeeded him as Duke of Normandy whilst William Rufus became King William II of England. Between 1087 and 1091 the two brothers vied for supremacy and Malcolm III of Scotland used this distraction to assert his claim over Northumbria. He invaded in 1091 but this was quickly defused by the arrival of a large English army headed by William II himself. The following year the English King invaded Cumbria displacing a noble, Dolfin, who was a retainer of Malcolm III. The construction of Carlisle Castle and the importing of English settlers, made it clear that William II was seeking to entrench English power in the north. This led to the Scottish King deciding to invade England again.\nMalcolm III advanced into Northumberland in Autumn 1093 advancing across the Cheviot Hills. By November 1093 he had arrived outside the walls of Alnwick Castle and camped his forces on the high ground overlooking the Aln Valley. In response Robert de Mowbray, Earl of Northumbria mustered a small force at Bamburgh Castle and marched to relieve Alnwick. As he had inferior numbers, Robert made a covert approach hoping to surprise the Scots.\nThe English force was under the command of Robert de Mowbray, Earl of Northumbria- an experienced military commander. The Scottish force was under the direct control of Malcolm III (known as Malcolm Canmore), who was around sixty years old at the time of the battle but again an experienced campaigner. The numbers involved on each side is unknown but the English force was certainly significantly smaller than the Scottish army.\nThe battle was fought on 13 November 1093 but, despite its title, it was little more than a skirmish. Robert de Mowbray successfully made a covert approach upon the Scots catching them completely by surprise. Chaos reigned as Robert pressed home his attack in which Malcolm was skewered and killed by an English lance. His eldest son, Edward, was also mortally wounded in the assault and later died of his wounds. The leaderless Scots soon broke into rout and retreated. The King's body, and that of his son, were interred at Tynemouth Priory and allegedly later moved to Dunfermline.\nMalcolm's death led to political chaos in Scotland. The late King's brother, Donald Ban, took control but William II supported the claim of Malcolm's son, Duncan. He provided an army and Duncan marched north to oust Donald. However, he was deposed after less than a year in power and Donald restored. In 1097 William tried to influence the situation again by supporting another of Malcolm's sons, Edgar. He successfully seized power and thereafter reigned as a client King of William II and Henry I until his death in 1107.\nThe battlefield has changed significantly since the eleventh century as, although still largely undeveloped, it has been landscaped and actively managed for agricultural purposes. A monument has been erected to mark the site where Malcolm III allegedly died. Alnwick Castle, which Malcolm was besieging prior to the battle, is a major tourist attraction although subsequent upgrades and prettification mean it bears no resemblance to the fortress that stood on the site in 1093.\nBattlefield. The view of the battlefield from Alnwick Castle.\nMonument. The Gothic style cross was erected in 1774 by Elizabeth Percy, Duchess of Northumberland, a descendant of Malcolm III. It is said to mark the spot where the King was killed.\nAlnwick Castle. The castle had been built following the Norman invasion by Gilbert de Tesson (also known as Tyson), a Norman Knight who had been William's standard bearer at the Battle of Hastings. The original structure was a small earth and timber fortification built at the point where the Great North Road, a major route north/south route, crossed the River Aln.\nBamburgh Castle. Like Alnwick Castle, Bamburgh has been substantially rebuilt in the centuries since the battle with the bulk of what is visible today dating from the nineteenth century. However, it was from this site that Robert de Mowbray deployed with his small force in order to relieve the siege of Alnwick. The castle is found 13 miles to the north of Alnwick.\nThe monument marking the site of the Battle of Alnwick (1093) can be found off the B6341 to the north of Alnwick. It is in a copse of trees and not immediately obvious from the road. There is a lay-by on the B6341 and the gate accessing the site is around 50 metres to the north before the roundabout. Visitors may also wish to combine their visit with a trip to Alnwick Castle, details below. There is also a plaque marking the capture of William the Lion at the Second Battle of Alnwick (1174). The latter is found just before the entrance to Hulne Park. Be careful you don\u2019t miss it - it is behind some railings on the left side of the road as you approach the Gatehouse that marks the entrance to the park.",

        "raw_content": "If Ihave to talk about a book that I have written it destroys the pleasure I have from writing it. If the writing is any good everything there is to say has been conveyed to the reader.\nI don't like it when I'm cynical, but I'm really seeing the relationship between blogs, newspapers, and the businesses who advertise in either one in a new light.\nIf I'm a business, I need to let people know about my business - or I'm not in business. So I advertise, and to advertise, I look for venues that receive a great deal of traffic where lots of people will chance upon my ad and notice my business. Of course - nothing new there...\nAnd if I manage one of those venues - let's go with blogs or newspapers at the moment - my job is to create as much traffic as I can so that I can attract more advertisers. Of course - nothing new here either...\nI'm reading around on the net this morning and I stumble upon this: a horrid political cartoon that equates America with al Qaeda in terms of torture. I read on this guy's site that this generated an uproar in Atlanta and that talk radio is abuzz with this.\nThis is an attention economy: you make money if people pay attention to you. And so lots of people are paying attention to the Atlanta Journal Constitution (AJC) because of its cartoonist's despicable viewpoint.\nTraffic. He's generating traffic for his employer. Lots of people are paying attention to this.\nSo one of the long-time advertisers in the AJC, a Mercedes dealer, decides to buy a full page ad on the page before the editorial section, protesting the cartoon. They don't sever their advertising relationship with the AJC. No, instead they set up their ad right where the traffic is going and howl at the moon and look patriotic.\nThe cartoonist created traffic that prompted an advertiser, who intends to continue the relationship, to buy a full page ad. Good for the AJC.\nThe car dealer gets to look good before its buying public in the midst of scandal. Good for the car dealer.\nAnd bloggers and talk radio folks get more readship and listenership through those incensed by the whole thing, which drives up their traffic.\nSee the full circle?\nI remember when Bono used to be somewhat high-minded and he decried the star aspects of rock and roll. That changed about the time that their Achtung Baby album came out. He decided that he was better off just emracing the whole thing and running with it. His \"The Fly\" image - big glasses, leather jacket - was a response to this. Today, he uses the attention he gets in his embrace of stardom to advance causes important to him. Smart.\nEric Lichtblau, the New York Times \"journalist\" who broke the story about SWIFT, is essentially a useful idiot, just as the AJC's cartoonist. The AJC and the NYT use these sideshow acts to drive the curious into the big tent. And Mercedes dealers and bloggers and talk radio folks set up shop around the whole thing to ride the coattails of it all.\nThis is all just mutual backscratching. I don't know if I should be deeply upset or amused by it all. At the moment, I'm pretty irked about it. I might feel inclined to jump in the fray if it weren't for the fact that people's lives are threatened by it.\nI'm hard on shoes.\nI've had this pair since 1999.\nBut everything has to be replaced...\nBoy, are the new ones white!\nThe Flip Side of Insecurity\nEgo. Smugness. Arrogance.\nHere's the New York Times back during the Revolutionary War, uncovering government secrets for public consumption.\nYes, it's a joke. Sort of.\nNote the name of the author of the article. That's not a joke. Bendict indeed. The flipside of insecurity is unspeakable arrogance that disregards human life to win Pulitzers, which are worthless for the cost to achieve one.\n(Got this from Powerline...)\nI broke in my new shoes with a long walk this evening, during which it drizzled and I witnessed the most spectacular rainbow. A full circle, it was, with a second rainbow begun on the outside of it.\nI took this with my camera phone. It takes decent pictures, I think.\nLots of thinking during my walk and a few phone calls. Nice to get out, and it was cool to be damp for it.\nYesterday, I went to my friend's house (Tamara) and watered her tomatoes. One had even turned color.\nSummer is wonderful. I love these images.\nAs I spend my time on vacation this week just being at home, I'm using the time to retool. I'll know more when I come up for air, but some strong directions emerge. We'll see if life will allow me to go in those directions.\nI'll drive where I'm allowed. Fun!\nOh, and one other thing. Kelly turned me onto Matt's site the other day. You really must visit it, if just to watch the video. (Kay, are you reading? You would love this!) Not only is it infectious, but the song is amazing. I ordered the CD, which is by Deep Forest. It's out of print, but I managed to get it through Amazon.\nI have a hero complex. Always have. It comes from being the oldest child of five revolving kids in a multi-fathered alcoholic household.\nOver the years, I've worked on projects and shone where the impossible was necessary and I was brought in to salvage something in a short period of time and usually worked alone and proceeded to do what no one thought could be done. It's a good talent to have, but it's not healthy because it's motivated by a need for speed, so to speak. Great chaos, but not sustainable.\nIn the relationships I've chosen, I've looked for opportunities for me to be the knight in shining armor. Chivalrous, but over-the-top. It's not my job to save the world. Ultimately, I'm really not responsible for others. Here's where one of my favorite maxims comes into play: Circle of Concern, Circle of Influence.\nFrom Stephen Covey's Seven Habits:\nIn looking at ways to influence and change our surroundings it is helpful to notice where we focus our time and energy. We each have a wide range of concerns - our health, our family, problems at work, the national debt, etc., and it is these things in our lives that make up our Circle of Concern. As we look at those things within our Circle of Concern, it becomes apparent that there are some things over which we have no real control and others that we can do something about. We could identify those concerns in the latter group by circumscribing them in a smaller Circle of Influence. The problems all of us face fall in one of three areas: direct control (problems involving our own behavior); indirect control (problems involving other people's behavior); or no control (problems we can do nothing about, such as our past, or situational realities). A proactive approach is the first step to the solution of all three kinds of problems within our present Circle of Influence. Some people interpret proactive to mean pushy, aggressive, or insensitive, but that isn't the case at all. Proactive people are smart, they are value driven, they read reality, and they know what's needed. And they focus their efforts in the Circle of Influence. They work on the things they can do something about. The nature of their energy is positive, enlarging, and magnifying, causing their Circle of Influence to increase.\nI'm finding that life lately is telling me in a big way that I'm spending too much time in my Circle of Concern and not enough time in my Circle of Influence. Which means that I'm wasting my time. Time in the Circle of Concern means that I fancy myself Superman. I'm not. Always a good lesson to re-learn.\nLife is Best Lived Locally\nYears ago, as I walked to work (which is one of my favorite activities), I scanned the scene from horizon to horizon and realized that we live in a bubble of locality. If anything occurs within that bubble, it's immediate to me and personally known. But outside of it, such as the doings in Washington, it's really conjured up in my head as best I can imagine it. I can't view it. I wasn't there.\nLater, when I began my Internet ramblings, I realized that distance from others makes us less likely to feel a sense of, well, etiquette. If I meet you face-to-face, I'll be more polite. If I write you an email, I might be inclined to be less so. If I only comment on a web site of someone I don't know, etiquette could go right out the window.\nIn the corporation where I work, which spans several large cities, we often talk about getting together for a face-to-face with those on a project so that we can not only have a greater accountability, but also a greater comraderie and rapport. That personal sense of someone brings us closer and preserves a sense of etiquette.\nI've been watching the dust-up between Jeff Goldstein and Debbie Frisch at Jeff's site. It's long and involved and that link is only part of the story. Suffice it to say that his conservatism and her liberalism didn't mix, and she was notoriously rude and even made comments about his child and he was insulting - so this was a rather nasty episode. But why? Here are two highly educated folks snarling at each other publicly, and the mob of Jeff's commenters joined in the fray and the rudeness. Blogs are just great, aren't they?\nAnd then Jeff Jarvis, in his infamous \"Dell Hell\" series, noticed that Dell - the corporation - has started blogging, which he asked them to do long ago. And so they do, and what does Jeff do? He sneers.\nBoth of these incidents get a ton of traffic and notice. It's as though someone yells \"Fight!\" at school and then everyone runs to the window to see. And it's ridiculous. And I'm one of the ones at the window.\nWhat is it with long-distance online relationships that reduces the need for civility? Remote invites the cold and is best left behind, I think. Life is best lived in the local bubble of our awareness.\nI don't disagree with blogging at all - I have this site after all. I write here for many reasons. I am reminded of what Gandhi said:\nI went out and bought this little gizmo last night, an Olympus digital voice recorder.\nA while back, Mike Sansone suggested that I do podcasting, so I'll do that on occasion, but I also wanted something to better record the music that I create, and this does that fairly cheap. Better than recording on my digital camera and converting the mpeg to mp3, anyway. That process introduced lots of Rice Krispies to the process (snap, crackle, pop, and all that).\nAnd I'll just play with it. The human voice is an amazing instrument, whether it can carry a tune or not. And the world around us is so full of wonderful sounds. We focus a great deal on our vision, but if I had to choose between eyesight or hearing, I'd go with hearing every day of the week. My hands can make up for the loss of vision, and I would not want to go without the sound of the human voice.\nThe process of recording is easy. And I've incorporated the XSPF player to allow easy playback here on the web site. (You'll probably have to click twice to get the player to play the file...)\nDid it work? I'll know in a minute after I post this...\nETC: Yep, it worked, but I discovered that I have to save the MP3 file at a 128 bit rate. The larger the bit rate, the larger the file. For voice, a bit rate of 32 is just fine and lends itself to a smaller file, but when I do that, the track plays 4 times faster so I sound like a chipmunk on helium. I'll have to work with it or find a different player.\nMORE ETC: I've created a graphic for this and decided to forego the in-browser player because it can't support smaller files, and I don't want my traffic eaten up here by humungous file downloads. You can click the graphic to listen to Cub beat me in a game of Battleship. I was testing the sound quality of the recorder (good!) and messing around to find the best quality file size (64 bit).\nCub beat me earlier in Battleship and wanted to go for round two: I lost again. To a 6-year-old. Who has a most bizarre strategy and seems to know where my ships were despite any cleverness on my part. Take a look:\nHow he knew that my none of my ships were in the lower right of the board, I have no clue. But he did, and through his random guesswork, he found me and beat me.\nFeeling a need for pen and ink and watercolor lately, I dove in after we had lunch.\nJust playing... more to come.\nMore Doodle\nI can't explain why, but doing this pen-and-ink thing with the watercolor is deeply satisfying. And I'm not even particularly proud of the results, but just doing it feels good. It's almost like I don't care about how it looks. It's fun just to grab an image and paint without worrying about how accurate it is and then throw color at it.\nThe faces too. They have a lot to do with this.\nThankfully, my little digital recorder works as I expected in creating multi-track song files. My goodness - what I can do from here.\nI own Cubase, which is a multi-track music production software package. I can take audio files and mix them together. It's pretty decent. So while the boys are sleeping I created a simple vocal piece (totally made it up on the fly) and then recorded a separate harmonizing piece for it. Then a percussion track (me slapping my leg...) Three tracks, and then blended them all together with Cubase. Ho ho! It worked. I've never done anything like this, so I'm thrilled.\nI'm playing a lot today and trying new things. Fun!\nETC: And because it's 128 bit, I can put it into this little player. Click twice to get it going...\nCubdoodle\nWhile sitting in the living room, I decided to pen-and-ink Jacob while he played. I've always wondered how to capture people who are moving. He didn't sit still, nor did I ask him to do that. His face and body changed angles and shadows and color and I tried to render him correctly.\nI like pen-and-ink; it forces me to sketch without eraser, and that's more discipline. No net, so to speak. But I don't like how after a bit I get a bubble of ink in the pen and it then splots onto my work. See the two large black dots above...\nAfterward, Cub and I sat at the table and painted with watercolors. He portrayed his McDonald's doll that he got in a recent Happy Meal. I colored in what I had seen. Here's his:\nWe're both happy with his effort, plus he likes listening to the scanner take a picture of his work. He imitates the whine of the scanning light as it moves under the glass.\nEarlier, Austin and I played baseball. I pitch; he swings. \"We need a pitcher, not a belly-itcher.\" I do manage to get him a few good pitches, and he enthusiastically clocks them when I do.\nPrior to that, Cub and I played a new game together: Blokus. Cool game!\nIt was a tie :)\nJust Say No to Jihad\nA basic human principle is this: respect for life.\nThere are lots of folks who believe that there are equivalencies to be drawn between the Israelis and the Jihadists in the Middle East. But there's a simple distinction: respect for life.\nThe Palenstinians have it in their charter to \"eliminate\" Israel.\n...in Article 15, the Arabic is translated as \"the elimination of Zionism,\" whereas the correct translation is \"the liquidation of the Zionist presence.\" \"The Zionist presence\" is a common Arabic euphemism for the State of Israel, so this clause in fact calls for the destruction of Israel, not just the end of Zionism.\nDitto for Iran.\nThe European Union and Russia have joined condemnation of the Iranian president's public call for Israel to be \"wiped off the map\".\nMahmoud Ahmadinejad's remark has already been condemned by individual EU states and Canada who all summoned Iranian diplomats for an explanation.\nIsrael has not made such a call. Isreal is, in fact, armed to the teeth and has been for decades. But they're not trying to wipe out or eliminate anyone, though they certainly could have.\nJihadists, radical Muslims who want to see the world converted to Islam or destroyed in the process, are a global threat. They attacked us on 9/11. They attacked England. They attacked Spain. They recently attacked Mumbai, India. They killed in Indonesia.\nJihadists have no respect for the lives of others. They want to kill indiscriminately.\nIsrael, on the other hand, currently targets its bombing of Lebanon to Hezbullah's weapons caches and means of weapons re-supply, such as ports and the airport runways and bridges.\nNot night clubs, bus depots, hotels, financial centers, or railways - all populated by civilians.\nIf Israel chose, Lebanon and Syria could be \"wiped off the map.\" They have the capability. They don't choose that. They're simply going after those who seek to kill them. That's called defense.\nIf the Jihadists had the means and opportunity, they would nuke Israel without the merest second thought. So Hamas, Hezbullah, al-Qaeda, and all the other terrorist Muslim groups worldwide take an offensive stance and seek to kill all non-Muslims.\nIt's time for the world, as a whole, to say \"No\" to the big jihad that kills innocent people worldwide. Enough already. Everyone has a right to exist. Can anyone really disagree with that? If so, why would anyone support Hezbullah? Or Hamas? Or Iran's religious political leadership?\nFor me, I stand with Israel and with those who recognize Israel's right to exist. I stand with Muslims who truly do seek peaceful coexistence. I stand with the basic human principle of a respect for life.\nmyphonefiles.com sucks\nmyphonefiles.com sucks. I wanted to create a custom ringtone, and found this web site and software through Google. So I purchased ($25 + $5) and installed the software and went through the process. I used the software to upload my custom ringtone, and used the web site to send the ringtone to my phone. Got a text message on my phone and went to download the ringtone. But then I got this:\nError 905: Attribute Mismatch-Content-Type\nI should mention that I have this phone, a very multimedia-friendly phone, and my service is Sprint, which myphonefiles.com says that it supports.\nI tried changing the ringtone file type to MMF, MP3, and WAV, but to no success - same error every time. So I wrote support, and the guy who wrote the software and web site, Steve, sends this in reply:\ntype purevoice or AAC.\nSo I go back to the web site to change the file type. Here's a screenshot: there's an option for Purevoice, but not for AAC.\nSo I send him this screenshot and tell him that I get the same error and that AAC is not an option. I get nothing in reply.\nFair enough - perhaps his product won't work for me. I send an email and request a refund. I get this:\nsince we offer a test area at www.myphonefiles.com/test , we do not offer\nrefunds for subscriptions. This is stated in the terms and conditions that\nwas agreed to during signup.\nIn trying to resolve my issue, I had gone through the web site pretty thoroughly to see what I might find for help and not once did I see a test link. I still don't.\nSo, be warned: the product didn't work for me, the support sucks and doesn't care about you, and you won't get your money back when it doesn't work.\nListless is a good way to describe myself of late, but I had a good bout of creativity and free-form fun over this past weekend and I find myself emerging. A few threads in my life are coming together, and life makes sense.\nI wrote a while back that anger is a good thing when used correctly. It's energy, and when channeled well, it's a positive. As I like to say, if someone is going to kick you, make sure that you're pointed in the right direction first.\nMy cards have sold modestly. Not in droves, but rather in spurts. And I've discovered that the people cards don't sell. In a fabulous bit of timing, I sold nine cards today to one person. They bought:\nTwo of this...\nAnd two of this...\nAnd one of this...\nNo people, except for the child. I don't think the woman jumping for joy counts because she is somewhat generic. Two of the cards had words on the front. The majority of my cards have sold in batches. People buy a bunch of them at once. All of my buyers have been women.\nHmm... I'm connecting the dots, and I think I see a way to grow the business, and my direction was misguided. Ha ha! Movement...\nMy friend, Peter, writes me today and says:\nI think it is so cool to get out there and learn these types of things, and even cooler to take action and adapt.\nHaven't heard from Peter in a month or two, but his timing is exquisite. Perfect. Thank you, sir.\nI had considered painting portraits, but for the money I would have had to charge, I don't think I'll find many buyers, and it's not really the direction that I wanted to go anyway. I might do it on a one-off basis now and then, but I can't sustain that effort and feel right about it.\nI'll soon be back to painting cards... with a renewed direction, with juices flowing, with a strengthened sense of self.\nIt's all a matter of how we see life. Sometimes hearing \"No\" is just as important as hearing \"Yes!\" Both are an answer, and a direction. Both allow for movement.\nWhat is willpower? Why is it that some seem to have more willpower than others?\nI want to venture forward a definition of willpower, and by doing so I'm going to take some of the \"oomph\" out of willpower. It's not some magical or genetic material more present in some people than in others.\nMy definition: Willpower is a decision and a desire to change.\nBreak it apart. \"Will\" implies a decision and commitment. \"Power\" is the energy put behind the decision. For those who lack willpower, they either haven't made a decision to change, of if they are convinced that there should be change, they don't stay mindful of the need for change.\nTherefore, those who seem to have a lot of willpower are those who are unafraid to make a decision to change and who hunger enough for that change to see it through day by day. That's it.\nWillpower is self-centered. I don't mean that it's selfish. I mean that it applies to the self. I can try and convince others to join me in my thinking, but that's persuasion, not willpower. Willpower is what I decide for myself and what I put into it. My willpower won't change anyone. It can only change me.\nIf I convince others through persuasion to join me in change, then they have to apply that desire to change to themselves. I can encourage them, but it's best if they believe in it as I do. If I lead by example, that helps. \"Be the change that I seek in the world,\" as Gandhi says.\nBut I can't change others. Nor should I want to, because then it's only artificial and only lasts as long as my negative persuasion or positive persuasion lasts. I might be able to show them the benefit of the change, but ultimately it's something that they have to want for themselves. I can't change others. They can only change themselves.\nTrying to change someone is wasted energy. It's generally resented. It's regarded as control. But I'm never in control of anyone else. I only control myself.\nWillpower is a beautiful gift. I can change myself. It can energize me and spawn change in others by my example.\nControl of others is ugly. I can't change others permanently. It's a waste of time and hurts people.\nGot Gottman?\nMy mom is a therapist who looks frequently for good authors/thinkers and she will mention them to me. She's a big fan of a guy named Gottman. He's into divorce prediction, and has done studies complete with electrodes and cameras and other means of recording the moods, conversation, and interaction of a couple.\nHere's one of his indicators:\nWives who make sour facial expressions when their husbands talk are likely to be separated within four years.\nHubbies won't talk if what he says brings a grimace to his wife's face. Nor will he hang around her if she doesn't smile when he appears. She doesn't have to always smile, but friends get smiles when encountered. Children get smiles. If the man doesn't get a regular warm welcome, why be there? And so separation happens... never discount a smile. It's the easiest and often the most engaging thing we can give to someone.\nGottman has this notion of the \"four horses of the apocalypse.\" These are the four predictors of relationship demise. Ready?\nThere's a cure for these. Don't withdraw - stay in the room and mentally engaged to work it out. Soften criticism. Be open to the soft criticisms of your spouse - really listen. Focus on what you admire about your partner, and not on what bugs you.\nThere's a good article here that gives a brief summary. Here's a snippet:\nIn a healthy relationship, Gottman says, \"there must be a rich climate of nourishing emotions: teasing, laughter, validation, kindness and understanding.\" In stable marriages, the ratio of positive to negative interactions is five to one, Gottman finds. Couples who store healthy feelings, he adds, have enough invested to bail themselves out when they get into trouble.\nWhen negativity gets on a roll, he says, contempt is \"the single biggest predictor of divorce. It is sulfuric acid for love; it completely erodes it.\" Contempt often goes hand in hand with constant criticism, which one partner may use as a result of having endured it as a child.\nWe are creatures of habit. We often mimic what we've known. Even the most idyllic childhood can bring a few bad habits.\nRelationships aren't for the faint of heart. The search for love is a risk, but it's worth it. And it's worth the work in keeping it once you find it.\nETC: Here's a good link to a review of one of Gottman's tapes.\nListening to Gottman we learn that both happy and unhappy couples argue, but unhappy couples are far more likely to engage in a wide range of destructive fighting techniques, including personal attack, dredging up the past, losing focus and name calling. Well-adjusted couples speak clearly and openly with each other and listen empathically; while distressed couples generally resort to what Gottman calls the \"four horsemen of the apocalypse,\" ineffective behaviors which are highly predictive of divorce. The four predictors are criticism, defensiveness, withdrawal and contempt. Satisfied couples are friends and, therefore, employ more positive than negative exchanges. They also have better problem solving skills. Dissatisfied couples, on the other hand, are likely to engage in negatively escalating conflicts and become stuck in repetitively destructive patterns.\nThe term \"four horsemen\" is also used to describe a downward spiraling sequence with criticism more likely for women and withdrawal more likely for men. The male partner's ability to deal with conflict is a great predictor of the outcome of a marriage. Generally, men are less competent in relationship skills than women. The degree to which they are inadequate at handling conflict indicates the likelihood of deterioration within the relationship. Gottman observed that gender differences are most prominent in bad marriages, especially in situations where men refuse to be influenced by women. In stable marriages, wives soften their criticism and husbands accept influence from their spouses. Male withdrawal is not causal but is an epiphenomena of distressed marriages. The typical pattern is that the wife pursues and the husband withdraws; in an ailing marriage this pattern is most pronounced. Gottman questions John Gray's suppositions of great gender differences between men and women because he found only a few. He argues that women are more likely to criticize. Men are typically less effective when expressing themselves and therefore more likely to withdraw. Unfortunately, the withdrawal has a negative effect.\nYup. What he said.\nCards: Batch Number Three\nThis is the third batch of cards that I've purchased. Every time that I go to the printers and pick them up, I fall in love with them all over again. I recall what it was to choose the image, measure out the rectangle with which I paint, select colors, paint brushstroke after brushstroke, and then scan in the finished work. Each card is a story. Each one is a gamble. It's a risk of my time and money. But to look at the finished product, it's all worth it. I'll allow myself that satisfaction.\nBecause this was a smaller batch, my cost per card was higher this time. Roughly $1.30 per card. Normally, it's only about 50\u00a2. Lesson learned, and an expensive one at that. But it is a risk. What if I don't get my money back out of my investment? How do I sell them to insure that I do? Did I paint the right card? Is it the right message? The right look?\nWhat's gratifying to me is that my more recent cards sell better than my earlier cards. I must be getting a clue, which makes my wallet happy.\nSo, that's it for my bit of respite this evening. Now off to my friendship painting.\nI took my latest cards to my mom's house today and as I inserted them into their space in the rack she has, the Joy card really jumped out at me. It's the words. Not only do they sell, but the words enhance the whole thing. That hit me big time today.\nLater this week, I'll go on a trip to take source pictures to use for future paintings. How do I take pictures and frame the shot in such a way that it leaves room for words and has a nice balance to it? I guess I'll find out.\nIt also struck me that of course my initial cards didn't sell well. For the first time, I could see that today clearly. Which is both good and bad. Good in that I know which path to take and will know better what to paint. Bad in that I've wasted some money for now on cards that won't sell immediately. They will eventually, I'm sure, but I wouldn't stock them today. So I think I'm down to about seven sellable cards now. Two steps forward, one step back.\nI found a way to prevent using excess acrylic: paint cups.\nI squeeze a bunch of paint into these cups, and the lid keeps them from drying out. When I'm ready to use some paint, I scoop only what I need from the cup and onto my palette paper. That, and cling wrap, once the paint is on the palette paper.\nBig cost savings and it allows me to take breaks, which are always healthy.",

        "raw_content": "by billwil \u00b7 November 16, 2011\nI know that sounds harsh. Especially so considering the large usage share that Google\u2019s Android mobile OS enjoys. Everyone knows someone with an Android phone. In fact, chances are, at least a plurality of your friends are using the platform on their phones. There are somewhere around, I don\u2019t know, a gazillion or so different handsets on the market sporting Android. There is no question it\u2019s popular right now. Even though I am partial to another platform (in fact, I proudly work for the company that produces my mobile OS of choice), I don\u2019t begrudge the search giant their success in numbers right now. And for my friends and colleagues who use such phones, I respect your choice.\nJust take my personal information out of your contact list. Please.\nYou see, the Android ecosystem is a mess, and it\u2019s not hurting just the Android users. As many have found out, when you buy and start using a smartphone, you\u2019ve bought not just a device, but you\u2019ve bought into an ecosystem of sorts. A modern smartphone OS is a platform, just like Windows or MacOS, on which applications, utilities, even companion desktop software is built. So while you purchased a Motorola, or a Samsung, or an HTC (or other) device, you also bought a platform. And part of that platform is a huge collection of \u201capps\u201d, or applications. That\u2019s one of the beautiful things about a smartphone (or any healthy technology platform); it will be able to do more tomorrow than you realized today it can do. That\u2019s the magic of software.\nThese applications are usually found today in marketplaces designed for the platform. Each mobile OS has it\u2019s own marketplace. In the case of Apple\u2019s iPhone, it\u2019s called the Apple App Store. For Microsoft\u2019s Windows Phone, it\u2019s called the Windows Phone Marketplace. And for Android, it\u2019s, well, a bit more confusing. I\u2019ll revisit this in a moment.\nHistory (not for the easily bored, skip to \u2018The Goodies\u2019 below if you\u2019re in a hurry)\nA little background may be in order here. There are several different approaches being taken today for smartphones by their creators, but history plays a role in getting to where we are, so I\u2019ll cover that quickly.\nThe original battle as smartphones started to exist was between Microsoft\u2019s original mobile platform and, first, Palm, and then Blackberry. This played out through the early to middle part of the last decade. Microsoft\u2019s approach was to license the OS, which was highly flexible and complicated, to the OEM phone manufacturers, and let them do with it what they wanted to. They could include certain modules, leave others out, create the hardware any way they wanted, use different sizes and shapes of screens, etc. Also, back then, there was no official place to get apps; each OEM and each user were on their own. RIM (the creator of the Blackberry) took a different approach. They owned the hardware AND the software, as well as enterprise server products to manage these for companies. They had the beginnings of a \u201cwalled garden\u201d in which they owned everything from the device to the OS. They released a line of phones that became quite popular with business users. But, they had a problem. They were competing with a platform (eventually to be known as Windows Mobile) that had devices proliferating like crazy. Their walled garden was attractive to businesses (IT departments were in control), but inevitably, the single-vendor approach, while successful, didn\u2019t garner the market-share that the many devices, one (sort of) platform approach could. I remember seeing a statistic back in maybe 2004 or so (don\u2019t quote me, I can\u2019t find it right now) that more Windows Mobile based handsets were sold that year than the whole current, at that time, user base of RIM\u2019s handsets.\nGreat plan, right? Well, if you know anything about the history of smartphones, that open, free-for-all approach ended up backfiring on Microsoft, and they\u2019ve lost almost all of that market share. How? Simple. The ecosystem, while ultra-flexible, was a mess. Meanwhile, RIMs end to end approach may have slowed \u201cinnovation\u201d a bit, but it kept the platform from becoming a mess, and this paid of big with businesses. RIM ended up surpassing Microsoft in the latter part of the decade based on this idea of control and order.\nThen the iPhone was released, and everything changed.\nHere was a brand new platform being released that was innovative, desirable, beautiful, and completely closed. In fact, it was as closed as the so-called \u201cdumb phones\u201d are still today. There were no third-party applications available at all; everything that was able to go on the phone was put there by Apple explicitly. The inventors of the platform wanted to keep it pristine, so no one else could play in the sandbox. So, it was the \u201cwalled garden\u201d taken to the extreme. And, as it turned out, a lot of people wanted one. It was an amazing leap in both handheld technology and market acceptance of certain practices (especially when it came to carrier control).\nEventually, even Steve Jobs and Apple loosened their stance on third party apps when it was demanded by the market, but they took the unprecedented step of creating a marketplace (known as the app store) that was itself a walled garden, cultivated and pruned by Apple themselves so as to have the last word on keeping their new platform as pristine as they could. So not only did Apple approach this market as they had (with varying market success) the PC market by controlling the platform from the hardware and software standpoint, they took the next step of controlling even the third party software by creating an approval process and payment processing all wrapped into one. And there was no other official way to get apps onto on iPhone. All roads to the iPhone went through Apple. Oh\u2026and they took a 30% cut (but also dealt with all the payments, bandwidth, etc., for developers). And then, over 400,000 apps were released.\nEveryone quickly began to realize that there was a lot of potential value in running an app store, or marketplace, for a growing or popular platform, so everyone had to have one. In fact, all the major players in smartphone platforms clamored to duplicate what Apple had done with their app store.\nMicrosoft, with the Windows Phone Marketplace, also closed it up and only allows approved apps to be installed. But Microsoft, like Google with Android, doesn\u2019t make hardware, so the OS has to be licensed by OEMs or hardware companies (like Nokia, Samsung, HTC, etc.). Microsoft, though, had learned from their mistakes the first time they were in this market (and dominated, actually). This time they gave the hardware makers criteria around the hardware (called the Windows Phone Chassis Spec), kept control of much of the platform, what could be installed, and required all of the OS to be on the device. This would help keep the platform uniform and from becoming a mess, as before. More importantly for the sake of this article, it left Microsoft in charge of the software, the marketplace, the apps, etc.\nGoogle, on the other hand, has an open source platform. In other words, Android is free to the OEMs, they have the source code, and they can implement it any way they want. Google is ONLY in control of their marketplace (the Android Market). The difference is that there are many other marketplaces, and because nobody is in control of the software on the device\u2026applications can be installed from anywhere. Add to this the fact that Google doesn\u2019t really police their market very well, and we have pretty much pandemonium going on. Applications on Android have far, far more control over the OS than third party applications can possibly have on an iPhone or a Windows Phone. It\u2019s more like being an administrator on your Windows PC and installing an app; you tell it once that it has full control, and the app can pretty much do whatever it wants. This is what led to the epidemic of viruses and malware on Windows at the turn of the century before Microsoft caught the religion.\nThe Goodies (Bringing it Home)\nThis is exactly the state of Android today. Anyone can create a marketplace. A user can \u201cside-load\u201d any app they download from anywhere. And apparently anyone can upload really scary stuff even into the official Android Marketplace. Also, these applications have access to virtually everything on the phone or tablet, including contacts, email, etc. Add to that the proliferation of Android into so many hands, most of whom are not technical and don\u2019t fully understand the frightening underbelly of technology with it\u2019s privacy and security issues, easy theft of identities, and even worse. This malware is not just from some 13 year old in his parents\u2019 basement anymore either; most of it is produced by very sophisticated information gathering illegal organizations and is sometimes even state sponsored (by countries such as China and Iran).\nAnd on Android\u2026it\u2019s everywhere. McAfee, a well-known anti-malware software company who runs a virus lab, says that Android (and only Android) is being widely affected by malware\u2026and it\u2019s on the rise. In this report by McAfee researchers for Q3 2011, they noted that in the mobile space only Android has had any threats. It reads, in part:\n\u201cLast quarter the Android mobile operating system (OS) became the most \u201cpopular\u201d platform for new malware. This quarter Android became the exclusive platform for all new mobile malware.\u201d\nAnd they noted that the amount of Android malware this quarter almost doubled from the previous quarter, and more than quadrupled since Q3 of last year, which was 2010\u2019s most attacked quarter. Again, note that according to McAfee, there were zero (that\u2019s 0, zilch, nada) malware attacks on Apple\u2019s iOS and Microsoft\u2019s Windows Phone platforms during that same timeframe, and almost 100 NEW virus and malware programs for Android.\nMcAfee is not alone. Other virus labs, including Kaspersky Labs, Juniper Networks, and Symantec all agree that Android malware is on the rise. They each of released reports basically echoing the same sentiments. Those reports are here, here, and here, respectively.\nWhat\u2019s more, as you can read In this MSNBC.com article, it is reported that Android customers just don\u2019t care yet (There are some other good data points in that article as well, so if you\u2019re interested, I encourage you to read it). This has been my experience as well. In fact, a friend of mine who has a small android device showed me a fish background app that she had installed many months ago. When I told her that I had read that there was Android malware going around that did that, she thought for a minute, shrugged, and noted that it was cool anyway. I instantly thought, \u201cWell, can you take me out of your contacts, then?\u201d I can\u2019t remember if I said it out loud or not, but while this was quite some time ago, it was the origin of this article. Recently, though, it\u2019s gotten so bad on Android, that I had to finally write this. Oh, and all the anti-virus software that these companies are selling, it\u2019s not going to fix this problem. In fact, unless you buy from a reputable company (including those linked to in this article), you\u2019re likely installing more malware on your phone. Also, even the reputable companies offerings are very limited. Gizmodo did a report on this here.\nSo, you may be wondering what this malware does. According to the sources I\u2019ve linked to in article, it can and does do a lot of things. Anything from simply sending texts to for fee numbers (so they can collect on those fees) to actually recording your phone calls. It\u2019s scary, scary, stuff, actually. If you use an Android phone, I highly encourage you to click on these links and do a little reading. You may not think you\u2019re being affected now, but with Android malware increasing an alarming 472% since July (MSNBC.com article), you probably will.\nPersonally, I wouldn\u2019t touch Android with a 10 foot, sterilized, pole in these current conditions, but what worries me, beyond having bad things happen to my friends who do use it, is that this can ruin my day, too. Significant personal information of mine is being carried around in a lot of phones. I\u2018m not the most popular guy in the world (or probably even on my block), but I would guess my address, phone numbers, email addresses, and maybe even my kids names, etc., are on at least dozens of Android handsets. If any one of these gets infected, which is becoming more and more likely every day, that information could easily be shipped off to who-knows-where, to who-knows-whom, for them to do who-knows-what with it. I can guarantee you, whoever it is, they\u2019re not going to send me a gift basket with that data. Well, I don\u2019t want them to have it.\nSo that leads me to my premise. I love you guys, but if you\u2019re using Android, take my personal information off your phone. Please. Better yet\u2026when it\u2019s time for you to get a new phone, don\u2019t chose one based on Android unless this mess is corrected by then (but I wouldn\u2019t hold my breath). Then we can text and stuff again. I\u2019ll be waiting.\nTags: AndoridAppleFeaturediOSMalwaremicrosoftMobilePrivacySecuritySmartphoneVirusWindows Phone\nNext story Change of Scenery\nPrevious story Some Oshkosh 2010 Pics",

        "title": "Abhinav Agarwal: Kabini and Jungle Lodges",
        "raw_content": "The Kabini river originates in the district of Wayanad, in the state of Kerala. It flows for only a few kilometers in Kerala, forms the border for some 12 kms for the states of Kerala and Karnataka, and then enters the state of Karnataka. It joins with the Cauvery river in Karnataka, and finally flows into the Bay of Bengal. This is paraphrased from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabini\nJungle Lodges, Kabini on Google Maps:\nWhy is this description of the Kabini river important in the context of this post? Because the Kabini reservoir separates the Nagarhole National Park from the Bandipur National Park. Ok, so what is the Kabini reservoir? It is a reservoir on the Kabini river in the HD Kote taluk of the Mysore district, and submerges an area in excess of 15,000 acres.\nThere are several places to stay in Bandipur and Kabini; some of the better known places are\nhttp://www.cicadaresorts.com/\nhttp://www.junglelodges.com/V2/kabini.htm and http://www.junglelodges.com/V2/Bandipur.htm\nhttp://www.nivalink.com/waterwoods/index.html\n(If these deep links do not work you should try the home page of these sites and then try navigating to the appropriate page. Sites sometimes undergo redesigns, and consequently some links stop working. It is generally considered a good practice to redirect a visitor to the most appropriate page in such a case, or at least to redirect the user to the home page of the site. Presenting the user with a \"Page Not Found\" error is the least acceptable response. Anyway.)\nYou could also choose to stay in the nearby towns of Mysore, Nanjangud, or Gundalpet. The parks are between an hour and two hours drive from these places. The best option however is to pick one of the places inside the park itself. Driving distance from Bangalore to the Bandipur National Park is approximately 240 kms, and depending on when you start your journey, can take between five and seven hours. The earlier you get out of Bangalore the better, since the morning traffic can add upto an extra hour to your drive. Once outside Bangalore, after you have hit the Bangalore-Mysore highway, the traffic does thin out considerably, and the towns you pass on the way, Bidadi, Ramnagaram, Channapatna, Maddur, Mandya, Srirangapatna, add little to the traffic. You are in and out of each town in a few minutes, except for Mandya, that can take as much as half an hour to drive through, and since you anyway will not speed through these towns, the time taken increases only slightly.\nAs to the resorts, Orange County is probably the most expensive of all, with prices touching Rs 30,000 per night during the peak season and New Year's Eve, and dropping by more than half, to a still stiff 14k thereafter. This is the per-room, per-night tariff, based on double-occupancy. Look at it this way - spending a weekend at this place could set you back by close to fifty grand - even with the greatly appreciated US dollar, that is still $1000 for two nights. The only explanation for these rates lies in its proximity to Bangalore. With golf carts to ferry your luggage from the car to the rooms, with private plunge pools, with a jacuzzi, the focus is on luxury. One could argue the wisdom of driving into a resort located in a forest and then spending the time there cooped inside a hot tub of bubbling water, but that may be what defines luxury, for some people. In economics, you could describe this as a very effective form of inefficient price discrimination and price discovery. Inefficient because you are still not charging a different price for every individual, based on their ability and willingness to pay. Such a form of price discrimination is actually illegal for the most part, because you never know when the discrimination on the basis of economics and not on account of other factors that could qualify for racial discrimination.\nA luxury brand is built by establishing a sense of exclusivity, and maintaining an uncompromisingly high price point. The gentry would not take kindly to spending princely sums of money if it transpired that the exclusivity was temporal, and that the hoi polloi were granted admission during the lean season. Luxury is also built by restricting quantity, which also explains why these resorts have only a dozen or so rooms.\nJungle Lodges and Resorts, sometimes also called the Kabini River Lodge, used to be the hunting lodge of the Maharaja of Mysore. It is situated by the banks of the Kabini river, in Kharapur, near the Nagarhole National Park (also called the Rajiv Gandhi National Park). Colonial style bungalows have been converted into spacious double-bed rooms, with an attached bathroom with all the modern amenities you could hope for in the middle of a jungle. These include heated water, a bath, and a WC, with running water! No television. No air-conditioning. The ceiling fan operates quietly. A small refrigerator is provided. The dining hall is some twenty feet from the Kabini river, or literally speaking, a stone's throw, and you can watch the boats and coracles go by on the river. If you were to throw a stone, and while the chances are slim, you may well end up hitting a crocodile. There are lots of them in the river, which is why swimming in the river is not considered a good idea, if you are a human. The food is served warm, and heated over charcoals. A netting serves to keep out flying insects and mosquitoes, and to be doubly sure in the evenings, there are electric mosquito repellents plugged in.\nSome of the things to do while at the Kabini lodge are take a boat or coracle ride in the river Kabini, a jungle safari through the forest, which is a part of the Rajiv Gandhi National Park (also called the Nagarhole National Park), and take a short elephant ride. These national parks are all contiguous, and form part of the Nilgiris biosphere reserve - Bandipur, Nagarhole (RGNP) in Karnataka, Mudumalai in Tamil Nadu, and Wayanad forest in Kerala (see on Google Maps and read more on Wikipedia). The elephant ride is dependent on the availability of elephants, as you would have guessed, and that is why it is called an elephant ride, because you get to ride on the elephant, so it is more a matter of luck than not. These elephants are not kept in captivity, but released into the forest every day after the morning. When these elephants return in the morning, it is at that point that the forest authorities know if elephant rides are going to be available or not.\nThe jungle safari takes a couple of hours. Part of the reason is that it takes about half an hour to get from the resort to the entrance of the forest. This again is partly due to the distance, and partly due to the condition of the forest roads, as you can surmise from a cursory inspection of some of the photos. Since only forest vehicles are allowed inside the park, it is somewhat clear that the need to keep the roads in pristine condition is somewhat less pressing than elsewhere. Secondly you may also question the need for roads inside a forest that allow for high speed driving.\nYou first drive through the buffer zone of the forest before entering the proper forest. Inside the forest the condition of the roads is better. Why? Because there are no tar roads there. Instead, mud roads serve for the jeeps and vans to travel on. This is actually better because the ride is smoother because of the mud, and is less potholed. It is said that the best time to spot wildlife is in the early morning or late afternoon. Because during the day the animals are usually resting under the shade of the trees and flora.\nThe best part of the year to spot wildlife is actually in the summers. Why? Simple. During the summer months most of the water holes have dried up, and only a few large ponds and water bodies have any water left. Which means that animals have to necessarily come to these places to drink. Therefore you are likelier to spot wildlife here. The other reason is that the heat of the summer months dries up most of the undergrowth and shrubs in the forest, leaving you with a clearer view of the forest. Animals are less likely to remain hidden during that season. Of course, the summer months will also see the scorching sun and high temperatures. The proper thing to do would be to spend the afternoons inside, or in the shade, doing pretty much nothing. You could find a tree with lots of shade to lie under, sip a nimbu-pani, read a book, and leave the BlackBerry inside the room, switched off. Unless it is required, per the customs of showing off and appearing to be busy, to fiddle with the device, appear to be checking and responding to emails that no one cares to see your reply till after your vacation. Maybe not even then. Unless, of course, you are playing Angry Birds. In which case you are excused.\nPark yourself outside your room, sit on one of these cane chairs, and watch the day go by in the warm glow of the setting sun. Maybe sip a cup of Nilgiris tea or Coorg coffee.\nBefore you start complaining about the state of the road, remember that it will keep any vehicle from speeding, won't it? Eh. Didn't think about that, did you? The truth is that the environment does not get anywhere close its fair share of funds from the local, state, or national governments, which is a pity and shame. Once these forests are gone, they are gone. They will not come back. We can build roads and buildings, but we have not figured out a way to build forests. Not dead forests, bereft of wildlife, of lions, tigers, leopards, panthers, and herbivores, but live forests. No sir - we still do not know how to bring back dead forests to life, so let's do what we can to keep the ones we have alive and healthy.\nSwirling swoosh of clouds on an overcast day, boating in the Kabini reservoir and lake.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabini",

        "raw_content": "New Research Shows That This Doubles the Risk of Dementia\nThere are many factors that can be linked to dementia, such as age, genetics, and lifestyle choices. But researchers recently discovered something else that they believe could double the risk of dementia.\nAccording to research from the University of Southern California, there are environmental factors that can contribute toward developing dementia. One is air pollution. The air is polluted with particles that come from automobiles and factories. These particles enter our lungs and blood stream. Researchers believe these particles could be responsible for about one out of every five cases of dementia.\nThe study included women age 65 - 79 from different parts of the country; none of them had any signs of dementia. The study tracked data from 1999 through 2010 on the women involved and found that those who were exposed to higher levels of air pollution had faster rates of cognitive decline and a higher risk of developing dementia. Researchers next want to study men to determine if they have the same risk of dementia as women.\nPeople who have other factors linked to dementia, such as genetics, smoking, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, clogged arteries, and excess drinking or have a high-risk gene for Alzheimer\u2019s disease, APOE4, will have an even greater risk of dementia, up to 2-3 times greater.\nRead more at www.healthyexaminer.com/which-of-the-following-has-recently-been-found-to-double-the-risk-of-dementia/?utm_source=wp&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20170227-air-pollution-dementia",

K. Hormis Tharakan Posted online: Feb 21, 2009 at 0159 hrs\nThe deal worked out between the NWFP government in Pakistan and the Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi (TNSM) in Swat has generated a great deal of concern in India and in the West. It has been variously described as surrender to the Taliban or collusion with the Al-Qaeda and the Taliban to give them another safe haven. In the Indian Parliament, it has been pointed out that with the fall of Swat, the Taliban are now just 500 km from Amritsar (and 100 km from Islamabad). How real are these concerns? What are the factors that have made the Pakistan government seemingly cave in to the Taliban? To understand these issues, it is necessary to get to know the background of the main players of the drama unfolding in this beautiful alpine valley, once known as Gandhara, a location which captured the imagination of Alexander, Seleucus, Chandragupta Maurya and Kanishka.\nThe most important amongst them undoubtedly is the man who has brokered the peace deal, Maulana Sufi Mohammed, who founded the TNSM in the late \u201980s. Promoting Sharia law was the prime objective of the TNSM. He did succeed in forcing the Benazir Bhutto government to announce the imposition of the Sharia law in Swat in 1994. Sufi Mohammed and the TNSM also had close linkages with Maulana Masood Azhar. After his release in Kandahar, Azhar is reported to have gone straight to Swat, joined the TNSM and spent some time training its cadres before founding his own Jaish-e-Mohammed.\nThe Maulana went with 10,000 volunteers to help the Afghan Taliban in the aftermath of 9/11, but his fighters got mauled in their encounters with the Northern Alliance. On his return, his party was proscribed by President Musharraf and he was put behind bars. Thereafter, his party went into decline, until, under the leadership of Mullah Fazlullah, his son-in-law, it regained popularity. Faquir Mohammed, the Taliban leader in the neighbouring Bajaur Agency, is also Sufi Mohammed\u2019s prot\u00e9g\u00e9. Sufi Mohammed was released in April 2008 by the new PPP government. A peace deal was signed by the government with his party, which promised to bring back peace to Swat, which of course did not materialise.\nThe second important character is Mullah Fazlullah, also known as Mullah Radio or Mullah FM. Fazlullah took over the leadership of the TNSM from his jailed father-in-law and won tremendous goodwill amongst the local people with the good work put in by his organisation in the wake of the devastating earthquake in 2005. He capitalised on this goodwill by making effective use of FM radio to propagate his views. Fazlullah successfully organised anti-polio and anti-girls schools campaigns throughout the region and quickly extended his influence over most of Swat. Recognising his growing clout, the government signed a peace agreement with Fazlullah in May 2007. Fazlullah was to support the polio vaccination campaign and education for girls, shut down training facilities for terrorists, stop manufacturing weapons, and support the district administration in any operation against anti-state elements. His followers were also to stop carrying weapons in the open. In return, he was permitted to continue broadcasting his illegal FM radio programmes and the government dropped criminal cases lodged against him. But that deal did not last.\nThe government of NWFP, now led by the Awami National Party, struck yet another deal with Fazlullah in May 2008, shortly after a similar deal with Maulana Sufi Mohammed and the TNSM, referred to above, was finalised. This deal provided for the imposition of Sharia in Swat and Malakand districts in return for Fazlullah\u2019s cooperation.\nHowever, in June 2008, when the government reversed its decision to amend the Shari Nizam-e-Adl Act 1999, which was meant to introduce the Sharia law, Fazlullah violated the ceasefire and renewed his attacks on schools, ANP leaders and security forces. The army launched an operation, in July 2008, but without much success. Meanwhile, the army decided that its greater priority was to take on the militants in Bajaur which is closer to the Afghan border. Fazlullah made full use of this opportunity to step up the violence in Swat and by October 80 per cent of the district was under his sway. 15,000 troops supported by air and artillery elements launched another operation in January this year and managed to recapture Mingora, the district capital. However, the campaign affected the local population severely, while Fazlullah continued his school destruction and decapitation drive regardless. More than a third of the population has fled this district once known as the Paradise of Pakistan.\nThis is the background against which the agreement with TNSM has now been signed. It makes one thing clear \u2014 nothing that has happened now is new. In fact, the Sharia law was first introduced in Swat way back in 1994. The peace deal with Fazlullah or the TNSM is nothing new either. What has been agreed to now is only the continuation of the deals that were struck in 2008 and were not implemented.\nWhy has the Pakistan government gone in for such a deal after the unsatisfactory experience with similar deals in the past? It is not clear yet what the terms of the agreement are. The government says that Sharia would be introduced only after the militants lay down arms. It is also not clear whether Sufi Mohammed would be able to persuade his son-in-law, who has declared an initial 10-day ceasefire, to sign the agreement. It is likely, however, that the hope of the government and the ISI is to bring about a rift within the ranks of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan by working out a deal with Fazlullah. If Fazlullah and Faquir Mohammed (who is giving a bloody nose to the Pakistan army in Bajaur) break ranks, the army would be in a far stronger position to take on Baitullah Mehsood, the most powerful militant commander in Pakistan today.\nIf the NWFP government is able to enforce the terms of the agreement, by which the TTP will lay down arms and the government will regain its administrative control of Swat even if the Sharia law is to prevail, it may not be a totally negative development. However, what is likely, going by previous experience, is that Fazlullah will get a free hand, militants will try to develop Swat into a safe haven and the demand for imposition of the Sharia in other parts of Pakistan will gather momentum. Whether the army \u2014 which has not been particularly successful so far in taming Fazlullah, whose armed followers are not large in number \u2014 would then be able to take him on is the crucial question.\nThe greatest lesson for India from these developments is that the disintegration of Pakistan can have disastrous consequences for our country. This is an invaluable lesson in the context of the post-26/11 scenario in which hawkish voices are becoming shriller. If the disintegration of Pakistan continues apace, the Taliban would not only be in Swat, 500 km from Amritsar as they are today, but in Lahore, a mere 50 km away.\nThe writer, who retired as chief of the Research and Analysis Wing in January 2007, is a visiting professor in the Department of Geopolitics at Manipal University",

        "raw_content": "The F\u00f8rde Traditional and World Music Festival (http://www.fordefestival.no), held this year July 5-8 in F\u00f8rde, Norway, promises to be a musical treat. The dozens of featured musical bands and dance troupes include Renata Rosa from Brazil, Sidi Goma and Anoushka Shankar from India, Musicians of the Nile from Egypt, Ivresses from Iran/Tunisia, Park Kyung-so from Korea, Bassekou Kouyat\u00e9 from Mali, Septeto Santiaguero from Cuba, Damily from Madagascar, Sergey Starostin from Russia, Frikar from Norway, Kamel el Harrachi from Algeria, and Ellika from Senegal \u2013 to name just a few!\nPhoto by Angel Romero\nHilde Bj\u00f8rkum, artistic and managing director, F\u00f8rde Festival, joins us in this exclusive interview where she shares the Festival\u2019s vision, highlights, evolution, and special treats for this year\u2019s festival. In the coming weeks, we will profile these unusual bands and provide live coverage of the festivities as well.\nQ: When was the festival started, and what was the vision?\nThe first festival took place in 1990. The vision was, and is, to get the richness of the world\u2019s music traditions and cultures better known for a broad audience, by making F\u00f8rde a meeting place for outstanding musicians from around the globe. It\u2019s also a vision to showcase the rich musical heritage from Norway to local and international audiences.\nWe emphasize presentation of artists and music cultures pretty unknown to a Norwegian audience; helping young artists in their artistic career by presenting them for a big audience; and providing \u201clow threshold\u201d to musical experiences by offering free entrance events and low ticket prices for children. We aim to be not only a \u201cbooking festival\u201d, but also a \u201cproducing festival\u201d, by initiating and producing new performances, order new music pieces, and so on.\nWe also offer concerts not only in the Culture House, but also in the town center, in squares, pubs, churches and son \u2014 altogether around 30 different venues. We use the unique nature around us \u2014 fjords, lakes and waterfalls \u2014 as a frame for the unique music we present.\nQ: How has the festival evolved over the years, in terms of format and mix of artistes?\nThe vision remains the same, but the festival has grown in all aspects. We have got stronger financial support over the years, and are now considered as one of Norway\u2019s \u201chub festivals\u201d with support from the Ministry of Culture, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the regional authorities and the municipality. We have become more professional in our work and have more staff. In the first year, we had a half-time job for one person, now we have six employees and more than 300 volunteers.\nThe audience has grown from around 6,000 visitors the first year, to around 25-30,000 the last years. The program has also been extended over the years; we now present around 80 events across four days and nights. We do more of our own productions and also have activities with concerts, seminar, workshops and conferences throughout the year in addition to the festival itself.\nFiddlers Marie & Julie \u2013 Litjtausa, featuring Marie Forr Kl\u00e5pbakken and Julie Alapnes\nQ: What is the theme for this year, and what are some special treats and surprises this time?\nThe special theme for this year is \u201cCoexistence.\u201d Coexistence is exciting and challenging, but first of all enriching! Through musical expression and traditions, we want to highlight how people and cultures have interacted with each other throughout the ages. No civilization exists in a vacuum; on the contrary, cultures grow and thrive through interaction with the outside world. Music arises as a result of peaceful encounters and coexistence between people, with new traditions growing forth from impulses from within our own community and from elsewhere.\nThis is the way it always has been and still is today \u2013 multiculturalism is nothing new. Many musical traditions and expressions are the result of a meeting of different cultures and people. Many of the artists we have booked for this year\u2019s festival illustrate precisely this point with their music itself. In addition, we have artists and program also outside the special theme.\nQ: How does this festival differ from last year\u2019s festival?\nAnoushka Shankar live in India\nPhoto by Romel Dutta\nWe always book different artists, of course, so the audience will get bright new musical experiences and meet new and exciting artists from all corners of the world. In addition, I must mention the very special project \u201c8\u2033, a new production where the Norwegian FRIKAR dance company meets monks from China, and the famous Norwegian male solo dance \u201challing\u201d meets Chinese kung-fu! With new written music and eight fantastic dancers on stage, I believe that this will be one of the greatest experiences in this year\u2019s festival program! Wonderful artists from India will also be presented, like the brilliant Anoushka Shankar with her \u201cTraveller\u201d project, and the exciting Afro-Indian ensemble Sidi Goma.\nWe also have other new productions at the festival, and some new festival venues, such as mountain tops with a great view over Forde; in small restaurants where the music is combined with gourmet meals and local food; children concerts and workshops in a lavvo; and lots of additional dance events, visual art projects, and festival films.\nQ: What is your message to the attendees of the festival this year?\nBe a musical explorer! Visit concerts, see artists and listen to music that you do not know much about. There are good chances of getting big and good surprises and unforgettable experiences! Close to 80% of the audience who visited our festival in the past comes back for the next year. So be on alert, the Forde Festival is addictive and dependence-producing! And bring your whole family: to have shared good experiences among children and adults is of great value!\nMore information at: http://fordefestival.no\nArticle by Madanmohan Rao, a Bangalore-based music editor & DJ, specializing in World Music and Jazz http://twitter.com/MadanRao\nWorld Music Central is a music site dedicated to World Music.

        "title": "LotusOpening News |: Q & A Interview with Belarusian Presidential Candidate Andrei Sannikov",
        "raw_content": "Q & A Interview with Belarusian Presidential Candidate Andrei Sannikov\nFrom the Kyiv Post\nQ & A with Belarusian presidential candidate Andrei Sannikov\nBelarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko recently announced he will run for re-election for the third time, when he is expected to attempt to extend his 16-year autocratic presidency through a rigged vote. The election may happen as early as this fall.\nA leading opponent, former deputy foreign minister, Andrei Sannikov, is predicting a surprise for Lukashenko this time. He is predicting street protests against any fraudulent election, similar to the 2004 Orange Revolution in Ukraine in which demonstrators succeeded in getting a presidential election rigged in favor of Viktor Yanukovych overturned. Viktor Yushchenko became president instead after a Dec. 26, 2004, re-vote.\nSannikov, son of a noted Belarusian art researcher, graduated from the Soviet Union\u2019s Foreign Affairs Ministry Diplomatic Academy in Moscow in 1989. After Belarus declared independence, he advised the Belarusian diplomatic mission in Switzerland and headed the Belarusian delegation on nuclear and conventional negotiations from 1993 - 1995.\nSannikov resigned as deputy foreign minister in November 1996 in protest to a rigged national referendum to expand presidential powers. The 56-year-old former diplomat is married to Iryna Khalip, a leading Belarusian investigative journalist, who has been persecuted by law enforcement agents in Minsk for chronicling the misdeeds of the authorities.\nKP: Opponents of President Viktor Yanukovych criticize the penchant of Ukrainian authorities to kowtow to Moscow. What would be Belarusian foreign policy toward Russia if you become president?\nAS: Establishing normal relations with Russia is long overdue. The Russian Federation will always be Belarus' strategic partner. My main goals - a free Belarus in 2011 and Belarus in the European Union in 2016-2017 \u2013 are should be perfectly acceptable to Russian leaders, and we can discuss all issues which are of concern both to us and to Russia. The example of such a relationship is Ukraine. Russia has taken in stride Ukraine\u2019s strategic choice of to seek closer ties with Europe. Moscow deals with a legitimately elected president who had been recognized by the international community. The Russian-Ukrainian relationship is a work in progress, and it could be the model for Belarus.\nKP: No one knows when the presidential election will take place. Would you prefer the poll took place sooner or later?\nAS: The sooner the better. It would be nice if they were held during the autumn, because the weather will be fine and people will take to the streets in pleasure to say \u201cNo!\u201d to the current authorities. The election date is unimportant really because there are no [democratic] elections in Belarus. The opposition does not have access to electronic media, television and FM radio stations, and it\u2019s naive to think new channels of information dissemination will appear. So the date of the poll really doesn\u2019t matter. The simple fact that no one knows when the election will take place is another example of the nature of the current regime is.\nKP: Do you think people will take to the street in revolt?\nAS: It is not only me who thinks this. Probably for the first time a consensus has emerged among Belarus\u2019 democratic camps that it is necessary to take to the streets in protest. We have no other way to show our protest. We don\u2019t have newspapers. We don\u2019t have radio. So this is the only way we can attract attention to the fact that we disagree with this regime and are not willing to live under this regime.\nKP: How many opposition leaders want to become president? How does your vision of the future of Belarus differ from that of Aleksandr Milinkevych, another opposition leader.\nAS: I take it as a positive sign that so many political leaders have announced their intention to run against Lukashenko for president. This means that they sense a power change is imminent. But only a few of the candidates stand a chance. In this respect, the situation is similar to what it was in Ukraine during 2004, when the only real opponent to the candidate of the authorities was Viktor Yushchenko.\nMy fundamental differences with Milinkevych are over a very important issue. I agree that Belarus can move forward only through dialogue within the country. But he is lobbying for dialogue between Brussels and Lukashenko, which only weakens the opposition. The effort has deprived the opposition of the chance to influence policy. We were earlier able to get democratic countries to pressure Belarusian authorities to take certain decisions, but the European Union-Luakshenko dialogue took away the opportunity. This is why Milinekvych\u2019s position on this issue is unacceptable for me.\nKP: Is there any unified position of EU leaders on Belarus and what to do? Has the reset of U.S. relations with Russia changed American policy toward Belarus?\nAS: I don\u2019t think that EU leaders will take any decision on Belarus now because the bloc is scheduled to review EU-Belarus ties during the fall. The EU bureaucratic machine grinds slowly, and if a decision has already been taken to review relations, there will be no sudden shift before the review. The EU may react to events in Belarus before then, but the bloc will take not concrete steps.\nEU politicians responsible for ties with Belarusian are very disappointed by the lack of results of the Brussels-Minsk dialogue, but are probably unwilling to acknowledge their mistakes. Nevertheless, the rhetoric is changing. They aren\u2019t afraid to say today that the dialogue has borne no results and the onslaught on civil liberties in Belarus continues. They were shocked by the recent sham of holding local elections in Belarus. They probably expected changes, but this is a naive hope that we tried to disabuse them of.\nKP: What do you expect from officials in Kyiv in the upcoming months?\nAS: I am waiting for officials Kyiv to signal their support for change in Belarus. I don\u2019t see how Kyiv that declared its strategic goal to integrate with EU could support a dictator. I understand that it is probably not realistic to expect Kyiv to support democratic forces in Belarus, but our country is at a dead end with Lukashenko. If the situation persists, the interests of Belarus and Ukraine will suffer. This is why a change of leadership is necessary in Belarus, a country sorely in need of systemic economic, political and social reforms. I am waiting for government officials in Kyiv to understand this fact.\nKP: A lot of attention was paid during the Ukrainian presidential election campaign to which presidential candidate would be supported by the Kremlin. The same will be true for Belarus. Which opposition candidate does Moscow support, if any?\nAS: Russian support for Lukashenko over the years has been considerable \u2013 in political, international affairs, and economic terms. According to Belarusian analysts, Russia has provided Belarus with some $37 billion in subsidies over the past six years. This more three times the cost of building the \u201cNorthern Stream\u201d natural gas pipeline, or two and a half times the price for preparing for the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics.\nNow, I hope, Russia is convinced that it is impossible to have a dialogue with Lukashenko. They played Union Treaty, Slavic brotherhood game with Moscow, and Lukashenko received whatever he wanted. Russia, on the other hand, received almost nothing in return.\nThis game was premised on agreements no one knew about, including the price for natural gas. We in Belarus are only just now learning the price for gas negotiated last year and renegotiated at the start of 2010. No one bothered to inform ordinary citizens about the details or the outcome of the talks.\nThese opaque relations harmed Russia more than anyone because on one hand there are some ideological, political interests and on the other concrete economic interests, including the transit of natural gas across Belarus to Europe. I hope that Russians will understand that the perpetuation of this model of relations with Belarus will slow down trade and harm economic ties, not only with Belarus, but with European countries and Ukraine.\nKP: Do you really expect people in Minsk to take to protest in the streets, as they did in Ukraine in the early 2000s. Does Belarusian civil society have the capacity to sustain similar nationwide demonstrations?\nAS: First of all, I am not speaking about the electing the next Belarusian president in street protests. I am talking about a popular protest against the falsification of elections. I am not revealing any secrets when I say that Belarus doesn\u2019t have the level organization and resources, which were present on Independence Square in Kyiv.\nOn the other hand, Ukraine has had four presidents, while Belarus for the last 16 years has been forced to watch the same tired Lukashenko soap opera. People\u2019s reaction to upcoming election gives me hope that Belarusians will be able to organize themselves and act in their best interests. This is something that Ukrainians achieved during the 2004 demonstrations on Independence Square. Our opposition and its supporters have fought with the regime, taking to the streets. Bystanders observed, thinking, \u201cWell, if they succeed in achieving anything then maybe we will support them.\u201d I want people in Belarus to join in at this early stage, because, if this happens, anything will be possible.\nKyiv Post staff writer Peter Byrne can be reached at byrne@kyivpost.com\nNews article source: http://www.kyivpost.com/news/opinion/op_ed/detail/73496/#ixzz0tmrweUjv\nLabels: Aleksandr Lukashenko, Andrei Sannikov, Iryna Khalip, Orange Revolution, Victor Yanukovych, Victor Yushchenko",

        "raw_content": "There\u2019s nothing better than delving into a good story on a long summer day. Whether you\u2019re seeking a guilty beach read or a classic to enjoy from bed, we\u2019ve picked the best books for the season. Escape to the exotic island of Mallorca, rugged coast of Italy, misty mountains of Appalachia, seductive city of Hong Kong or gritty streets of New York. There you will meet characters who fall desperately in love, keep terrible secrets and make surprising self-discoveries.\n\u2018The Vacationers\u2019 by Emma Straub\nThere\u2019s no place quite like the sea in summer. The Post family escapes to the Spanish island of Mallorca for two weeks of luscious olives, juicy lemons and free-flowing wine \u2013 an alluring locale for a family with more than a few skeletons in the closet. While the sea shimmers with promise, dark secrets rise to the surface. We meet a father seeking redemption for a carnal affair, a daughter scheming to lose her virginity, a son concealing his own romantic indiscretions and a mother trying to hold her broken family together. There is something especially mesmerizing about the hidden lives of others, and \u201cThe Vacationers\u201d delivers on these voyeuristic expectations. Each page unveils the jealousies, betrayals and guilt lurking beneath the seemingly flawless exterior of this wealthy Manhattan family.\n\u2018Beautiful Ruins\u2019 by Jess Walter\nWhether you\u2019re vacationing in the Mediterranean or sunbathing in the backyard, this idyllic summer read will get your imagination going. \u201cBeautiful Ruins\u201d begins on the rocky coast of Cinque Terre with a magnetic spark between an Italian innkeeper and a glamorous film starlet. Like a fairytale, the beautiful actress arrives mystically on a boat only to vanish just as mysteriously. Fifty years later the Italian innkeeper travels to Hollywood in search of the woman he loved and lost. What follows is a dazzling romance with a cast of characters who entertain, inspire and warm the heart.\n\u2018Prodigal Summer\u2019 by Barbara Kingsolver\nIf you loved Barbara Kingsolver\u2019s \u201cThe Poisonwood Bible\u201d and other tales of the majestic power of nature, \u201cProdigal Summer\u201d is for you. Over the course of a hot, steamy summer, we follow the intertwining stories of three characters bound together by their connection to the earth, trees and wild creatures of southern Appalachia. A solitary park ranger finds unexpected company in an elusive den of coyotes. A young widow learns lessons in love and acceptance from the delicate moth. An elderly gentleman finds connection with his quarrelsome neighbor over a mutual reverence for the last breed of American chestnut tree. Kingsolver conveys the beauty of humanity and magic of the wild in a novel that rings true with every drop of dew and stream of sunlight.\n\u2018The Expatriates\u2019 by Janice Y. K.

Set against the atmospheric backdrop of a diverse and cosmopolitan city, \u201cThe Expatriates\u201d offers a deep exploration of these women\u2019s inner yearnings.\n\u2018Anthropology of an American Girl\u2019 by Hilary Thayer Hamann\n\u201cAnthropology of an American Girl\u201d is a biting coming-of-age classic to rival \u201cThe Catcher in the Rye.\u201d The novel\u2019s heroine, Eveline Auerbach, is thoughtful, brilliant and totally original. Beginning in the late 1970s \u2013 the tail end of the sexual revolution \u2013 Eveline embarks on a journey of self-discovery through a series of intimate relationships. She falls in and out of love with a brooding musician, discovers a primal, feminine power with a graceful prizefighter and loses her sense of self with an ambitious businessman. In a victorious resolution, Eveline rises from the ashes to find her way back to her true self. Author Hilary Thayer Hamann paints a picture of growing up that takes us back to the watershed moments of our own lives.

        "raw_content": "When a candidate is just too good...\nIt\u2019s so frustrating when you have a highly skilled, experienced candidate with a great resume, but you know they are just too over-qualified for the role you have. As tempting as it is to try and make the role fit the person, or to hire them and hope they\u2019ll stay, we know it\u2019s not the best solution.\nHowever that doesn\u2019t mean candidates with great skills relevant to your business should be lost just because you don\u2019t have the ideal role for them right now. Instead, you can retain their records and keep them in mind for future roles that may be better suited. Maintaining a candidate databases is a fantastic way to build a pool of people who you know would be great in other roles in your organisation as the right opportunity arises. So how can you keep these candidates in place until you are ready to strike?\nFirst impressions count \u2013 don\u2019t let their first interaction with your organisation be a straight rejection. When you email the candidate to say they have not been successful for this role, tell them exactly why and make it clear you want to keep their details for future use. A candidate may feel wounded when they are rejected for a role, but you can soften the blow by letting them know that they are too good for that role. It also gives their confidence a bit of a boost, after all who doesn\u2019t like to hear that they are \u201ctoo good\u201d for something?\nCommunicate \u2013 call and find out the candidates situation. Are they actively looking or just putting out some feelers? Do they particularly want to work for you? What is their ideal role and if you were to call them in six months time, what would it take to tempt them to move from the new job they will probably have by then. If you know what pushes their buttons then you are in a stronger position when you do have a role you want them for. In addition, you can ask if they want to stay on your records and be notified of new vacancies that might interest them, allowing you to keep the lines of communication open.\nIt\u2019s all about data - File the candidate\u2019s details in a way that ensures it is easy for you to find them when the right role does come up. Use keywords in a database and clearly state what experience and skills they have that are relevant to your organisation. This way you can do a simple keyword search through your database when you have a role to fill.\nIf you don\u2019t already have a candidate database management system, it is well worth looking into. You never know, the next time you have a tough role to fill, you may already have the perfect candidate right under your nose.\nContact Talent Propeller to discuss how our system could assist your business.",

        "raw_content": "In Walton v. Aguiliar, the Complaint alleged that the buyers signed a contract for the purchase of the sellers\u2019 property, a townhome. The defendant, a part owner of the property, was also a \u201clicensed real estate agent.\u201d\nSix months after purchasing the property a rain storm hit Charlottesville. Water entered the residence and eventually rose to height of THIRTY-TWO INCHES! Investigation showed that a clogged drain on an adjacent property caused the flooding. Further investigation showed that the same clogged drain had caused flooding three times prior to the buyers\u2019 purchase of the property. Additionally, the buyers found out that the seller had been informed of the prior flooding by the listing agent who sold the property to the seller. The sellers had a home inspection, but the seller did not tell the buyers about the flooding.\nThe buyers sued the seller on three counts: 1) Breach of Duty by the seller, a real estate agent, to disclose material adverse facts; 2) Fraudulent Misrepresentation; and 3) Constructive Fraud. We will discuss the Breach of Duty in this blog post, and in a later post, we will discuss the Court\u2019s decision on the Motion to Dismiss the fraudulent misrepresentation and constructive fraud counts.\nTHE COURT\u2019S DECISION ON THE SELLER\u2019S DUTY TO DISCLOSE\nThe court noted that a seller/real estate agent has a statutory duty to \u201cdisclose in writing all material adverse facts pertaining to the physical condition of a property for sale.\u201d Even though the clogged drain was on the adjacent property, the property for sale had been subject to periodic flooding. Because the court found that the seller/real estate agent knew of the periodic flooding, and because an agent has a duty to disclose that fact, the Court held that the buyers properly pleaded that the seller breached a statutory duty to disclose material adverse facts. The Court permitted that claim to go forward.\nWhat to disclose and what not to disclose in the sale of real property can be a difficult balancing act. In this case, at least at the pleading stage, the difference was that the seller was also a licensed real estate agent. If in doubt, seek legal counsel from your experienced real estate lawyer.\nFiled under: Construction litigation, John Tarley, Real Estate Litigation, Real Estate Strategies, State & Federal Litigation by John Tarley\n\u00ab When might a Virginia business be liable for unemployment compensation?|Oral Contracts are enforceable, but . . . . \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Posted on July 22, 2016 August 19, 2016 by Melissa Anderson Academics & Research\nSJSU Hosts Celebration of Life for Charlie Whitcomb\nDr. Charlie Whitcomb\nDr. Charles (Charlie) Whitcomb, a beloved member of the SJSU community for more than four decades, passed away July 15. He earned two degrees from San Jose State, and then served as a faculty member, department chair and academic leader.\nAt his request, a celebration of life will be held on campus in the Music Concert Hall on July 25, at 11 a.m., with a reception to follow immediately (directions to campus and parking).\nIn lieu of flowers, friends can donate to the Charlie Whitcomb Scholarship Fund. Gifts can be made online or by mail (Tower Foundation of SJSU, One Washington Square, San Jose, Calif., 95192-0183).\nHis impact is readily apparent from the many personal reflections and expressions of affection for Whitcomb received since his family shared news of his passing.\n\u201cHe was the kindest person you ever met,\u201d said Jessica Larsen, who worked with him in the Provost\u2019s Office. \u201cHe was always positive, cheerful and never said anything bad about anybody. He always took bad situations and found the goodness in it.\u201d\nLarsen noted that he was an advocate for SJSU students from less fortunate backgrounds, who didn\u2019t have as many opportunities.\n\u201cI will always remember his smile,\u201d she said. \u201cThat is how I remember him.\u201d\nDevoted to diversity\nWhitcomb was especially devoted to diversity and his passion is reflected in his many speaking engagements during his tenure as a faculty member and chair. He presented on issues related to diversity and athletics at multiple National Collegiate Athletic Association events and served as SJSU\u2019s NCAA faculty representative for 20 years. In 1991, Whitcomb was appointed the first chair of the NCAA\u2019s Minority Opportunities and Interests Committee. The group was, by any measure, incredibly impactful during his 10-year tenure.\nIn addition, he served on dozens of college and university-wide committees, including the University Commencement Committee, the Accommodations Review Board, the University Campus Climate Committee, Academic Senate and multiple search committees, among others.\nHe started his distinguished career at SJSU in 1971 as a faculty member in the Department of Recreation and Leisure Studies (now part of Health Science and Recreation), serving as a department chair from 1988 to 2002. He was appointed executive assistant to the provost in 2003, eventually serving as vice provost of academic administration and personnel through his retirement in 2012.\nHe earned two degrees from SJSU: a bachelor\u2019s in Justice Studies with a minor in Psychology in 1971 and a master\u2019s in Recreation Management in 1975, before going on to earn his doctorate in higher education from the University of Northern Colorado.\nPositive and hopeful spirit\nThose who knew him best describe Whitcomb as bringing a positive and hopeful spirit to every situation, with an infectious laugh and smile, and an unwavering dedication to our students.\n\u201cHe took with him his fun, playful spirit, his undeniable dedication to SJSU for over 44 years, his belief in dignity and justice across all people, his love of students, athletes, faculty, staff and friends, regardless of race,\u201d said colleague Dr. Kate Sullivan, a hospitality management professor. \u201cHe listened AND he heard. So many considered him a friend on this campus! I will always see his smile and hear his laughter and remember all the things he taught me as my dear mentor over the last 28 years.\u201d\nBefore joining SJSU as a tenure-track faculty member in 1972, he worked as a counselor for Santa Clara County Juvenile Probation Department Children\u2019s Shelter for six years. He was involved with many community organizations as well. He served on the board of directors for the National Park and Recreation Association from 1978 to 1981 and as a board director with Community Kids to Camp from 1985 to 1988,\nacademics Administration / Divisions athletics CASA diversity Office of the Provost\n\u2190 President Martin\u2019s Message on Campus Safety\nSpecial Announcement: Track and Field \u2192\nOne thought on \u201cSJSU Hosts Celebration of Life for Charlie Whitcomb\u201d\nAmazing man. Changed my life. You left too early my friend. See you soon. Pam\nPam , August 1, 2016 at 7:44 pm",

I glanced over a few articles on the alleged murder, but I didn\u2019t pay too much attention to the story. As time went on, I was confused because the trial never seemed to end\u2014I would read about a conviction, then an acquittal, and so on. A few days ago, Italy\u2019s highest court decided on the case (again) by acquitting Ms. Knox.\nAs a law student, I took a keener interest in the case this time around. I was especially interested in comparing and contrasting the differences between the American legal system and the Italian legal system. The more I read, the more grateful I am to be living under the law of the ol\u2019 U.S. of A. rather than under the control of Italy\u2019s legal system.\nPhoto By Nicola Baron Attribution 2.0 Generic (CC BY 2.0)",

We could also say we are who we are because of our nature (heredity), nurture (environment) & spiriture (how we utiluize our imagination and WILL-power)--Jan.30, 2013 (latest revision, today, April 2, 2014).\nRef: The Book: THE UNIVERSE WITHIN--From Quantum to Cosmos, By Neil Turok, 2012\nhttp://www.scienceagogo.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=printthread&Board=2&main=5009&type=thread\nNow take note of this special acronym, which I concocted, I am not sure when--not to long ago. Here it is, G~\u00d5~D. I use it to replace the nouns gods (plural), and God (singular)--the term favoured by theists. I\nNote that I use a tilde [~]. On my 'puter, it is the upper-case sign on first key before # 1. I understand that it can be used in literature to refer to titles. For example, over the centuries many artists have depicted Jesus on the cross. Above his head many artists put a sign with the following four letters, INRI--spelled out in Latin it is a title meaning \"Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews\" (John 19:19).\nthink of a Great-Omni-Dazzlement (an ever-expanding flash of creative light). Forget about calling it the BIG-bang (a derisive and negative term concocted by the astronomer, Fred Hoyle, an atheist.\nG~\u00d5~D is an acronym--not a noun--which I concocted quite some time ago ...not sure when ... to mean that which Generates Organizes & Delivers. What does it deliver? The things we need, and the people who need us.\nA GOD-HYPOTHESIS FOR NOW\nIn my humble opinion, the god-hypothesis, idea or concept, which I have come to accept, in recent decades, is too flexible a one to be contained in a simple noun like 'god' or even 'God'. noun and capable of being defined, or contained in a three-dimensional universe. The god-concept is beyond our power to imagine--to make into an idol.\nTherefore, I have chosen to use an acronym, GOD--which stands for all that is Good (Love), Orderly and Desirable.\nInterestingly, for a similar reason, Orthodox Jewish writers, when writing in English, use this, G-d. The dash represents the mystery of it all--beyond reason and what we experience.\nSometimes, instead of the full O--the symbol of infinity and eternity--I use the mathematical symbol, 0, with a / through it, the null--the set without numbers. Mathematically speaking, it is said that all things are possible. Since this system-server will not copy the null symbol I will use 0, zero. Thus I write G0D.\nIn 2012, now that I have become aware of the nature and function of the Tilde [~], I will now change it to be as follows: G~0~D~~all that is GOOD, OPPORTUNE, DESIRABLE, DELIGHTFUL AND DESIRABLE.\nI use the 0, the zero, and/or the null ... \u00d8 ... to refer to that which has no equal--the entire physical COSMOS plus all that is in it an beyond it, into which the cosmos is expanding.\nBrahmanism/Hinduism\nThe null encompasses and interpenetrates all \"things\"--physical, mental and spiritual. This is panENtheism, not to be confused with pantheism.\nIn the null, all that IS exists. In O , we all live, move and have our being.\nThe null is Spirit and Love in all of us. Check out what St. John writes in John 2 and 3, and I John 4:8--God is love.\nhttp://www.unitheist.org/whatis.html\nhttp://www.flfcanada.com\nGOD as the almost infallible computer\nhttp://www.brainmeta.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=18120\nUnitheism sermon\nhttp://www.brainmeta.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3623\nPhilosophically speaking, I like the approach long advocated by process philosophers who advocate the philosophy and theology of Alfred North Whitehead, the Rev. Charles Hartshorne and others.\nPsychologically speaking, I like the ideas of William James, Carl Jung, Victor Frankl, Abraham Maslow--all appear to be apart of the humanist school of psychology.\nAll this led me to explore what is commonly called hypnotism--a word which I think is a misnomer.\nhttp://www.danielolson.com/hypnosis/hypnosis_history.html\nIn 1965, mentored by the late Rev Canon Joseph Wittkofski, I know an extensive course on the PASTORAL USE OF HYPNOSIS, which I prefer to call pneumatherapy--the use of spiritual ideas to help with the integration of body, mind and spirit.\nSee the work of Dr. Milton Erickson--the psychiatrist who is known as the father of North American hypnosis.\nMy interests, also, include the study of the Holistic approach to life, including the sources of total health of body, mind and spirit, at all stages of life, including old age. Keep in mind: I was born in 1930.\nI often ask myself: What do I need to do next, so as to have the best possible physical, mental and spiritual information, necessary for a full and abundant life until the day I die? This is one of my goals.\nIn my opinion, we all need to ask ourselves:\nHow best to prepare for death? That is, the best way to be prepared to leave this three-dimensional universe, and move on to the next ... if there is one.\nPsychology, Religion and Healing (1950), is the title of a book which influenced me in my twenties. It is by the minister psychologist, the Rev. Leslie D. Weatherhead.\nComplementary therapies, including pneumatherapy--that is, hypnosis without the hocus pocus--are, also, of interest to me. Check out the work of Hicks/Adams (Ask and It is Given), Wayne Dyer and other modern thinkers.\nPNEUMATOLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY & SOMATOLOGY\n---About our spiritual, mental and physical diet.\nIn my opinion, philosophy and pneumatology are the parents of psychology which, when it married the animal-based materialism of Wilhelm Wundt and Sigmund Freud, rebelled against anything to do with the transcendental--the mystical and spiritual.\nNEEDED: MORE INTEGRATION OF SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY\nWith the help of intellects like the late William James, Carl Jung and Victor Frankl (logotherapy) Abraham Maslow and the humanistic school of psychology we are, without denying somatological facts, seeing a return to the pneumatological roots of psychology. I am working for the integration of pneuma, psyche and soma. See I Thessalonians 5:23.\nBeginning in 1947, I began my basic undergrad work as a student of psychology/philosophy and the like. In 1953, I was ordained a minister of the United Church of Canada.\nFollowing my ordination in June 1953, the first assignment of Jean (a teacher) and me (1953) was: Go to the Goosebay Military airbase. You will be met by Fl.Lt, the Rev. Phil Ross and the UC padre at the base. After lunch (July 18) He drove me, six miles through the dark spindly spruce, to what was ironically called Happy Valley--a squatters' town of 115 families. There I helped found the first church--then a union church--in Happy Valley, Goose-bay, Labrador.\nLater, in I954-1955, as the result of a scholarship to Boston University, I did post-grad studies in the HISTORY OF IDEAS. There, I completed the two-year program, with the help of excellent professors from BU, Harvard and Union Theological seminary, NY. From there, I went back to Canada--Tide Head, a bedroom community of about 80 families and five mile west of Campbellton, NB. There it was my privilege to design and supervise the building of a new church building adjacent to the school. To this day, it is the focal point of the community.\nThere, on April 1, 1956, Easter Sunday, Catherine Jean, our beautiful daughter was born.\nABOUT WHAT IT MEANS TO BE PNEUMATOLOGICAL\nBTW, I realize that \"pneumatological\", unlike \"psychological\", is not a commonly-used term.\n\"Psychological\". As I understand it, it has to do with the instinctual-controlled animal mind, which, regardless of its behaviour, is sin and guilt free.\n\"Pneumatological\". On the other hand, it has to do with the mind and body as being in conscious control of the human spirit. It is about the human mind as spirit--the human mind as being conscious and morally aware of itself. If you know that you are you; that you are not me and that you choose to treat yourself and me, lovingly, you are a moral and ethical human being. It is all about deeds, not creeds.\nWhile 'pneuma', 'pneumatics' and 'pneumatology' are found in World Book Dictionary, 'pneumatological' is not. I did find it in one very old Webster's Dictionary.\nNEW CONCEPTS AND NEW IDEAS ARE NOT ALL THAT EASY TO GET ACROSS. WE TEND TO HAVE A BUILT-IN RESISTANCE TO NEW IDEAS.\nYes, we evolved from some form of animal being. But, in my opinion, primarily, we are also 'pneumatological' beings. That is, we are animal beings who have evolved and are now spiritual beings, as distinct from animal beings.\nIMPORTANT QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ANIMAL KINGDOM\nHave you seen THE MARCH OF THE PENGUINS?\n[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_of_the_Penguins]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_of_the_Penguins[/url]\n[url=http://wip.warnerbros.com/marchofthepenguins/]http://wip.warnerbros.com/marchofthepenguins/[/url]\nThere are similar stories about alligators in the Amazon and ostriches in Africa. There are stories about salmon, whales, eels, and even monarch butterfly's.\nAll pose the question: What drives animal creatures to live, procreate and die the way that they?\nThe short answer is, instinct.\nScientists, who study animal and insect behaviour, tell us that such creatures have no conscious choice in the matter. It appears that they are, by powerful animal instincts, programmed to do what they have to do. They have no conscious choice in the matter. In the process, the fittest will survive to produce a better adapted model of the species for the next generation, or they will die in the effort.\nARE HUMAN BEINGS AND ANIMAL BEINGS ONE AND THE SAME?\nHowever, we human beings seem to differ from our fellow animal beings. While we, too, have animal instincts, we seem to have the power to ask ourselves: Why am I doing this? If I were just an animal, would I ask myself this question?\nDO ANIMAL BEINGS COUNSEL WITH ONE ANOTHER\"\nBy the way, over the decades I have done--and I still do--a lot of counseling. I always ask clients: Tell me, How do you feel, physically, mentally and spiritually?\nIn getting to know a client I always begin by asking myself--later I will include the client--:\n1.What per cent of this person's pain and suffering is strictly physical--that is, somatic--in nature?\n2. What per cent is mental and emotional--that is, psychosomatic--in nature? And,\n3. What per cent is self-imposed--that is, pneumasomatic--in nature?\nIMO, WE ARE, BY AND LARGE, A COMPLEX COMBINATION OF SOMA, PSYCHE, PNEUMA--nature, nurture and spiriture.\nBTW, I usually got the most successful outcomes with clients who were willing to include themselves as part of the healing team. When somatic solutions were needed, I was, and am, always ready to accept the counsel of wise medical doctors, especially those who, like Dr. Zoltan Rona--who is also a bio-chemist-- believe in and practice complementary medicine.\nBEWARE OF THE POWER OF GUILT, FEAR, ANXIETY AND DREAD\nSelf-imposed guilt and regret regarding the past, fear of the present, and dread and anxiety of the future, for example, can drive people into being addicted in any number ways.\nI am sure that, more often than not, the things which drive us to become addicted, whether it be to nicotine, alcohol, food, whatever--all leading to bad health, including obesity--are rooted in the psyche/pneuma--filled with the things which are eating us--rather than just in the soma (the stomach), filled with the things we are eating.\nFollowing the principles of holism, at my personal site\nhttp://www.flfcanada.com which is being revised,\nwe discuss the political economy, especially the local currency movement. I take what I call a feathers approach to economics--feathers cover the whole bird, not just the wings. I am interested in the art of providing:\nFull, abundant and meaningful employment (FAME) through the use of complementary and community currencies (CCC) which we first advocated in 1961. Check out the work of Professor Bernard Lietaer\nhttp://www.torontodollar.com\nhttp://www.transaction.net\nCurrently--always keeping my options open--I call myself a unitheist. I like to spell the divine name, G.\u00d8.D\nI retired as a pastoral minister Dec. 31,1993.\nNow, I like to think of myself as re-directed--an artist and a writer, director of The Family Life Foundation--a federally registered charity.\nWe (Jean and I) have a daughter, Catherine (1956) who is an artist--master carver, writer and poet. She lives with her artist husband, Wayne Adams, near Tofino, BC, on a large floating house (one-quater acre), on the west coast of Vancouver Island.\nMy son, Turner (1958) lives in Toronto is a teacher, a musician (jazz-pro), the father of my only three grandchildren (Tyler,1995, Sahar,1990, and Neda, 1988). His wife, Farah, is a Sufi Muslim, from Tehran, Iran. I now have two step-great grandchildren, in Sweden.\nAbout empathy: entering fully, through imagination, into another's feelings or motives. For example, into the meaning of a work of art, etc. It comes from the Greek empatheia--in + pathos, feeling.\nCoberst et al: Have you read any of the things I have written about pneumatology. Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneuma\nIMHO, empathy falls under the category of pneumatology, the mother of psychology. One of my missions since the 1960's has been the integration of somatology, psychology and pneumatology.\nWorld Book Dictionary, volume 2, defines somatology as the science of the human body, especially as a branch of anthropology. It is the science of material bodies, or substances; physics. It comes from New Latin, somatologia, from Greek soma, meaning body + logia-logos (Greek for word).

I had a happy professional career, and I am now enjoying the challenge of retirement.\nMy goal is to die healthy--the only pills I take are probiotics (enzymes, herbs, vitamins, and the like, which I get from a company called rgarden)--and to leave whatever legacy I can create to those I leave behind--my two children, three grandchildren, and others.\nFEATHERS COVER THE WHOLE BIRD\nI take a feathers--that is, a democratic-capitalism approach to political economics and all our resources. My approach is neither left wing nor right wing. I am neither a doctrinaire socialist, nor a dogmatic capitalist. I am an Aristotelian.\nANY WEALTH THAT FLOWS IS GOOD WEALTH\nWhile I abhor dishonesty and greed, I have no problem with anyone, such as Bill Gates, who have achieved all kinds of wealth and power, as long as it was gained, honestly and is used wisely and lovingly. I expect people of wealth and power to be good stewards--that is, I expect them to manage their wealth and power for their own and for the public good.\nCONCEPTION AND CONSUMERS\nIt seems to me that we all started life as consumers. As a baby you were a beautiful consumer, I hope. I was and was number seven at the teat--one more followed me. That is, we started to consume resources in the form of goods and services belonging to others, our parents, who consumed goods and services which belonged to others, their employers, who consumed goods and services which belonged to others and on, an on. Together, we still consume the resources of Mother Earth and...I'll call him, Father Sky (for both Iuse the symbol,G\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdD). And together, we the people need to be moral and ethical stewards of providence--what ME and FS ( G\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdD) provide.\nMORAL AND ETHICAL STEWARDSHIP\nSteward (keeper of the animal stys). Interestingly, the NT Greek word is is 'oikonomos'. From it we get our word 'economics'. Ad stewards we are keepers, or managers, of the house (oiko). Honest and creative stewardship of all our resources gives all of us the opportunity to be creatively employed, and creative employers--by our consumption providing employment for others. And on it flows to others. Every time a dollar moves--whether from the hands of the poor or rich--it becomes part of the flow of things. Wealth, like a river, needs to flow to remain pure. Poverty, IMO, is not caused by lack of providence; it is the result of immoral stewardship--caused by ignorance, or by obscurant manipulators--somewhere along the line. Most importantly: follow the flow of money.\nWE NEED A CURRENCY WHICH FLOWS LIKE OUR RIVERS\nIt is obvious that money is made to flow, like the current of a river. This is why we call it currency. Stagnant money is like stagnant water. It stinks. This is why I like encouraging people to use local, complementary and community currencies (CCC) in addition to the federal currency. CCC is is not for hoarding or saving; it is for using and is useless unless it is used.\nBTW, anyone heard about the local currency movement? I first started to write about it in the 1960's.\nQUOTE (lgking @ Sep 02, 10:27 AM)\nWhat exactly do you mean by it?\nOne of the standard creationist \"arguments\" goes like this:\n\"There is about as much chance for a tornado to go through a junkyard and assemble a 747 out of the parts as there is for random chemical associations to create life.\"\nHow the natural establishment of life came about is described convincingly in Dawkins' book, and for a creationist to fall back on the junkyard argument is to argue from a failure of imagination. The creationist is failing to look for the scientific arguments. It's caused by either fear of the truth or mental laziness.\nPosted by: lgking Sep 02, 2004, 10:00 PM\nRick, how familiar are you with the concept of emanation?\nTo the extent that I understand the concept, it makes sense, to me. It also fits in with the unitheistic concept of G-d, which I presently hold.\nhttp://brainmeta.com/redirect/redirlink2/redir.php?id=brainmeta.com/redirect/redirlink2/redir.php?id=http://www.iep.utm.edu/e/emanatio.htm\n* Definition and Distinctions\n* Hindu, Zoroastrian, and Greek Phases\n* Philo and Early Christian Doctrine\n* Pseudo Dionysius, Scholastic, and Mystic Doctrine\nThe concept of emanation is that all derived or secondary things proceed or flow from the more primary. It is distinguished from the doctrine of creation by its elimination of a definite will in the first cause, from which all things are made to emanate according to natural laws and without conscious volition. It differs from the theory of formation at the hands of a supreme artisan who finds his matter ready to his hand, in teaching that all things, whether actually or only apparently material, flow from the primal principle. Unlike evolution, again, which includes the entire principle of the world, material and spiritual, in the process of development, emanation holds to the immutability of the first principle as to both quality and quantity, and also in the tendency of the development evolution implying one which goes from less to more perfect, while emanation involves a series of descending stages.\nPosted by: Rick Sep 03, 2004, 08:26 AM\nEmanation doesn't conflict with mystical gnosticism, but one can't rule out illusion (as the source of emanational ideas) as consciousness itself emanates from the brain. One problem with gnosticism is its resemblance to megalomania in its certainty of truth.\nEmanation also doesn't seem to add any explanation, but implies more questions as to mechanism. The humanist view is that eventually people will know enough to be able to understand all the things about which we are curious. So any elements of theory that cloud the issues or don't add to understanding are to be avoided.\nYour avatar image, by the way, appears to be unaccessible from this part of the world.\nPosted by: Robert the Bruce Sep 03, 2004, 09:42 AM\nPosted by: Unknown Sept., 03, 2004, 09:43 AM\nThere are many variations of Gnosticism though.\nThe humanist view is that eventually people will know enough to be able to understand all the things about which we are curious.\nRick, I presume you speak as a sincere humanist. Perhaps you wish to avoid labels, but are you a materialist, or a spiritual humanist?\nYour comment reminds me of a story I have used on several occasions:\nA technologist developed a powerful, infallible and voice-activated computer. One of his friends was a theologian. He invited her, along with a few others, to be among the first to put the computer to the test. No matter how simple, or complex, the question, the computer responded, vocally, and with precision.\nWhen it came the theologian's turn, she first asked a couple of questions about the Bible and the religions of the world. Again, the computer had no problem.\n\"I have one more question\" she said, \"and I am sure we all await your answer with deep interest: Is there a one and only true God?\"\nSuddenly, the computer became a beautiful pink cloud which filled the whole room. Out of the cloud came a powerful and resonant voice: THERE IS, NOW!\nQUOTE (lgking @ Sep 03, 08:32 PM)\n... are you a materialist, or a spiritual humanist?\nI am a humanist in that my current operating hypothesis is that man has the best understanding that exists at this time. While it is possible that other intelligent beings exist somewhere, there is no (compelling) evidence that this is the case. So man, indeed, is the \"measure of all things,\" as the Greeks used to say.\nI am also a materialist in that I regard pure (unstructured) consciousness as a type of substance. Information exists only as structure in matter or consciousness. In my ontology I don't have a place for the terms \"spirit\" or \"soul\" which I think may be redundant with certain forms of consciousness or mind structure. I merely wish to be precise in my thinking, so I avoid terms that seem to me to cloud the issues.\nPosted by: Hey Hey Sept., 04, 2004, 03:14 PM\nThere is no compelling evidence for free will. Everything is achieved as part of ultra complex reflex action. We are fooled into thinking that we have free will, just as we are fooled into thinking that food tastes good and red is a nice colour. There is no taste or colour. This is all a ruse to keep us going. Who knows why? Just to keep thinks ticking.

For both Whitehead and Hartshorne, it is an essential attribute of God to be fully involved in and affected by temporal processes.[/quote]\nIn other words, I take this to mean that GOD is simply a name for what is happening in the eternal now and the infinity of space.

And so it is no surprise that this short book by Marguerite Henry about the Godolphin Arabian was one of her favorites.

There is a more than a tinge of Orientalism unfortunately, but still it does not distract from the beauty of the prose and the splendid illustrations. A classic!\nMirrani says:\nIt seems like all the \"classic\" books about horses follow the same mold; the horse is born, grows up, learns how to handle humans, goes through a casting out period where they are treated horribly and become separated from the people they love, then somewhere toward the end they find their family or human again and all is restored in the world. This book fits right in with that category, so why do we all love it so deeply?The story of Sham is the story of hope, of struggle through hardship and t [...]\nJinn Nelson says:\nThis book is amazing. It's told by a mute boy. No joke. It's amazing because it's about a horse and his boy who is mute, and stays mute through the whole story.

I checked it out from the library during summer holidays at my ancestral home: but I could not read it because I caught an eye infection. I left for school with the tragedy of an unread book burning in my heart.

I'm aware that the vast majority of it is made up, but the way Henry weaves the story makes it believable anyway.

Google sources gave me a new appreciation of her from learning about her childhood illness that made her bedridden for six years, to a tribute from her publisher in a commemorative edition of the book.

So if you love Black Beauty and National Velvet and The Black Stallion, you may well like King of the Wind more than I did.

His name will be Sham \u2013 the Arabic word fo [...]\nFew authors bring more sympathy and enlightenment to the story of a horse than Marguerite Henry, and \"King of the Wind\" happens to be one of her very best such books, if not her magnum opus. The story of the closeness between the Godolphin Arabian and his young, fiercely loyal master has an emotional stickiness that can't be beat by much else in literature. Ultimately, though the historicity of the story is nothing short of fascinating, I think it is this resonant tenderness of relationship that [...]\nThis was an enjoyable read, by quintessential horse book author Marguerite Henry. I enjoyed learning the hard luck, riches to rags to riches story (even fictionalized as it was) of the Godolphin Arabian, one of the founding sires of the Thoroughbred horse breed.The book also tells the story of Agba, a faithful human that follows the horse he calls \"Sham\", through his entire life. I'm not sure how much of Agba's story is true, or if Agba even ever existed, but I would like to think that he did.\nJoan Innes says:\nThis classic was a true horse-lovers adventure.

Definitely not something I would normally pick up and read, but a lot of these early Newbery winners have been that way. This is really just a cute story about a boy and his horse--they travel far and wide, experience tragedy and triumph, and are separated at times--but they always find their way back to each other.\nIf they still had the library records from my elementary school, one would see that I checked this book out SO MANY TIMES.\nA classic. I've loved this book each and every time I've read it. It's definitely Marguerite Henry at her best.\nFast audio book. love audio books because I can do some much and still be reading. pretty good. But not amazing, not planning on rereading, but I would watch a movie of it. if I was a big horse fan I think I would love it more. Just because. I really enjoyed the plot. Content:talk of muhammad and allah. And some mild talk of the horse getting hurt, but not badly.\nEmily (BellaGrace) says:\nThis book was among a handful that were absolutely beloved stories in my childhood.

In my case I don't know if I ever truly begged my parents for a horse but I was into all books of horses and ponies while even disliking one girl in third grade as she lied to a teacher thus taking away my Smithsonian guide of horses and ponies from around the world (which I never did get it back).

In all fairness, this is a book about a horse. I am a male. Take that into consideration. I've read a multitude of Newbery yarns similar to this where a main character or two goes on a long, seemingly endless adventure. There weren't many distinguishing elements here. And pardon me, but I don't understand how the horse went on to become so revered in the land (what, exactly, did he do that proved him worthy?) The illustrations we [...]\nMy daughter read this and wanted me to read it as well. I enjoyed it and was drawn in by the story. I liked one of the main characters, Agba, who is a mute. The omniscient narrator tells you of Agba's feelings but, since he can't express himself out loud, you can feel the feelings the the narrator ascribes to the boy. It almost makes it easier to really enter the story. Agba is loyal to his horse whom he helped from the time the horse was born. Agba was single-minded and didn't give up despite t [...]\nThe story of the Godolphin Arabians begins here.

Right from the beginning, the horse faces conflict as his owner attempts to kill him. A mute slave boy, Agba decides to protect Sham and stay with him throughout his life. They are sent with five others across the Mediterranean to France, whe [...]\nKing of the Wind is the perfect example of how to fictionalize a true story. None of the elements added to the story took away from the story itself, they simply added its heart and soul.

No matter where you\u2019re racing, the Derby is in the back of your mind all the time.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m excited for the chance to see where our stuff stacks up against the best teams in the country,\u201d continues the well-spoken teenager. \u201cThis is a huge opportunity for me. \u2018The Derby\u2019 is the biggest show in Short Track Racing and if we can qualify for it on our first try it would be something I\u2019ll remember forever.\u201d\nThe Portage, MI product made his name as a driver on the rise in the Pro Late Model ranks, amassing 4 wins and 13 top-5s with the CRA JEGS All-Stars Tour throughout 2017 and 2018, before transitioning into Super Late Model competition.\n\u201cThis week is the one time every year where it feels like every single person in the racing world is in the same place at the same time,\u201d says the up-and-comer. \u201cIf you can run strong during the Snowball Derby, then everyone\u2019s going to know who you are.

If we can qualify in without having to go through the Last Chance Race I think our whole team will be thrilled.\u201d\n\u201cI know that we can be there at the end,\u201d adds the Michigan native. \u201cIf we take care of our equipment all day, it\u2019ll take care of us when we need it the most.

        "raw_content": "INSIDE BLACK OPS 2 MULTIPLAYER: ESPORTS\nThere was a point, shortly after the launch of Black Ops where we attended a professional gaming match and it was a pretty pivotal moment. Here we were in an audience of several hundred people, watching Call of Duty being played on an enormous screen and rooting for pro players as they went head-to-head. It was intense and exciting and made us think , \u201cWhy shouldn\u2019t this excitement be packed into the game?\u201d So that\u2019s just what we did with Black Ops 2.\nFrom Day 1, a competitive eSports agenda was core to our approach to Black Ops 2. We designed a number of new features that promoted the ability to bring personalities into the game, allow players to broadcast their skills and show them to the world. This is where we introduce League Play and an exciting new toolset of integrated casting capabilities, taking the competitive spirit of Call of Duty and elevating it to a spectator sport.\nCompetition is fun at any level, which is why Treyarch has introduced Leagues, offering skill-based matchmaking and seasonal ladders. Play a small number of matches to get your skill rating, and from there, you\u2019ll be placed into a division with players of similar skill. Keep winning and you\u2019ll move up in rank \u2013 steady progress will move you up the ladder and into upper divisions. Skill-based matchmaking ensures that you are challenged but not out-gunned. League play is for everyone and they are a seamless gameplay experience. Simply join in like any other playlist to start building up your skill rating. Whether alone or formed up as a team, the system can instantly pair players up with others of equal skill.\nCODcasting is another feature that we\u2019re introducing in Black Ops 2, allowing players to commentate over live and recorded gameplay. Players can take on the role of color commentator for any game, providing play-by-play coverage of the action on-screen. There are a variety of specific features built into the game\u2019s CODcast menu to allow casting like never before. Features like picture-in-picture, map view, the score panel, name plate and \u201clisten-in\u201d all combine to create a powerful spectator sport experience.\nWe\u2019re also proud to announce ongoing development of an amazing new live streaming feature that will help make competitive gaming not only fun to play, but also fun to watch. We\u2019re also working to enable a streaming toolset that will allow players to stream their gameplay (and themselves) from inside the game itself. We\u2019re still in development here so, requirements, rules, availability and launch timing of this new feature have yet to be announced, but rest assured, we\u2019re eager to share more as soon as possible.\nA focus of the developers from the very start, Black Ops 2 is set to push the boundaries on eSports. Leagues allow players of all skill levels to experience the thrills of competitive play. CODcasting brings advanced production tools to the table. And Live Streaming shares all of these experiences live and online. Who knows, maybe you\u2019ll CODcast a match with me when we jump online on November 13? So, keep an eye out for \u201cVahn. \u201c\nINSIDE BLACK OPS 2 MULTIPLAYER: MULTI-TEAM GAME MODES\nFor some time now, fans have been asking for the ability to play a \u201cmulti-team\u201d format \u2013 and with Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, we\u2019re happy to say that we\u2019ve heard your requests and we\u2019re serving it up on November 13.\nMulti-Team is a new class of game modes in Black Ops 2. Instead of two factions going head-to-head, multiple teams of players take to the playing field at the same time, each looking to come out on top. Action is fast-paced and unrelenting, as competing teams battle each other for kills, objective points\u2014and eventually\u2014the win. Danger can come from all directions, testing even the most coordinated squads in their ability to communicate, hold positions, and watch flanks. The game supports up to 18 players, so you can have any combination of players and teams, up to six teams. It really brings group/team dynamics back to the battlefield to deal with multiple enemy teams.\nAt Gamescom, you\u2019ll see some multi-TDM, but at launch, you\u2019ll be able to play multi team game in several modes.\nWe\u2019re also introducing Hardpoint, a mode inspired by traditional \u201cking of the hill-style\u201d games. Players have to capture a zone and defend it and you won\u2019t score points if you\u2019re not in it. What\u2019s great is that the Hardpoint will move and relocate during the match, which means that the action is always shifting and players are descending on one spot.\nDuring some of the original test phases for multi-format games, the studio took to them quickly and we started having a lot of fun. From that point, we knew it was going to be in the game. And we\u2019re looking forward to giving players a sneak peak at Gamescom, and for everyone to play on November 13.\nINSIDE BLACK OPS 2 MULTIPLAYER\nSCORE STREAKS\nINSIDE BLACK OPS 2 MULTIPLAYER: CREATE-A-CLASS\nCredit: David Vonderhaar, Game Design Director\nAs we rolled off of the first Black Ops game, the team was truly inspired by how the Cold War setting of the game really opened up gameplay. Creating a near-future fiction was one that the team gravitated to quickly and one that the multiplayer team found incredibly inspiring when it came to the types of gameplay that could be included.\nAs part of the development process, we looked at gameplay and systems and found ourselves asking, \u201cWhy are we doing things this way \u2013 is it because it\u2019s how we\u2019ve always done it? Is there a different path we could take? What were the sacred cows?\u201d And from there, really began a very engaging process of challenging assumptions and stripping systems down to their absolute core.\nIn fact, in the very beginning, we turned Create-A-Class into a board game, allocating points to different pieces of content and what we arrived at a question that would ultimately re-shape the way people configure their load outs in Black Ops 2: What would happen if you took everything and threw it in one big bucket?\nAnd that\u2019s just what we did.\nWe created a \u201cpick-10\u201d point system where everything was worth one point \u2013 which is a wholly different approach than the previous slot-driven system where you had to pick content. Now, you can pick a primary weapon, or not \u2013 save that point and use it for something else. The net result for players is the ability to configure about a-half-million different load outs, many of which you\u2019ve never been able to create in a Call of Duty game before \u2013 the options are amazing.\nWhere things get really interesting are the \u201cWild Cards\u201d \u2013 these are the \u201crule breakers\u201d in Create-A-Class, costing one point each and allowing players additional slots for things like second perks, additional lethals, tacticals and/or attachments. Want two perks from the first tier? Select Perk 1 Greed to double-up on abilities. Want three attachments on your primary weapon? Equip Primary Gunfighter to fully accessorize your go-to gun. If a player is willing to sacrifice points in certain areas, Wildcards can bring about a new level of freedom in Create-a-Class.\nPerks themselves have been refined, becoming the simple enhancements that they were originally intended to be. Gone are Pro Perks. All Perks now feature tunables that can be strengthened or weakened, which allows us to ensure that not one Perk overly dominates it tier and that a healthy diversity of Perks can be found on the playing field.\nAll across the board, Create-a-Class has been rebuilt into a more personalized experience. Players now have an unprecedented level of control in how they want to play the game. But with this newfound freedom comes sacrifice, as players will have to assess what they value most in multiplayer like never before. And what was already a fundamental question becomes even more important, as millions around the world will have to answer on November 13th: How will I customize my setup?\nVILLAIN TRAILER\nUncover the secrets of Raul Menendez\nand Cordis Die.\nTurtle Beach, pioneers and market-leaders of the gaming headset category, released a new line of exclusively licensed.",

        "raw_content": "The review could not identify studies regarding the potential physical dependence effects of CBD in laboratory animals nor in human subjects. The review indicates that tolerance to the effects of CBD could not be induced in at least one study, however, it does not indicate tolerance to what effects. Regarding the possibility that CBD can produce THC-like effect, the review indicates \u201c\u2026there is no evidence of\nthat oral CBD administration in humans results in clinically relevant THC-like subjective or physiological effects, or appreciable plasma concentrations of THC or its metabolites.\u201d\nCBD does not appear to act directly at CB1 receptors; the receptor thought by many to mediate the abuse-related effects of cannabis. Additionally, it does not produce THC-like effects in the mouse tetrad assay. Generally, the effects of CBD do not indicate the likelihood for abuse in preclinical studies in that: it elevates ICSS thresholds; it does not increase dopamine release in the mesolimbic VTA-n. accumbens pathway; it does not induce conditioned place preference; nor does it generalize to the THC discriminative stimulus in rats or pigeons.\nIn human experimental studies the review indicates that \u201cWhile the number of studies is limited, the evidence from well controlled human experimental research indicates that CBD is not associated with abuse potential.\u201d Indeed, the literature appears limited for only two studies were cited to support this statement. In one study, 600 mg of CBD given orally did not produce effects different effect from placebo in healthy subjects on the Addiction Research Center Inventory (ARC). In a randomized. In a randomized, double-blind study using cannabis smokers, CBD administered by itself up to 800 mg p.o. produced no significant psychoactive, cardiovascular or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was ar or other effects and was without abuse-related indicators in a variety of testsrs in a variety of tests rs in a variety of tests rs in a variety of testsrs in a variety of tests rs in a variety of testsrs in a variety of tests.\nThe review indicates that CBD has been found to have relatively low toxicity, although it also indicates that not all potential effects have been explored. None of the toxic effects specifically identified in the review appeared particularly troublesome. Unfortunately, the entire toxicology section appears to be based on one review and its one update of the review without references to primary scientific sources. Adverse events reported in clinical studies investigating the therapeutic possibilities of CBD included, but were not limited to, somnolence, decreased appetite, diarrhoea, and fatigue.\nThe review indicates that \u201cAt present no public health problems (e.g. driving under the influence of drugs cases, comorbidities) have been associated with the use of pure CBD.\u201d In addition, the review indicated that there were no published statistics on seizures of illicit CBD available. There is, however, unsanctioned medical use of CBD-based products that are distributed in a variety of forms for a variety of ailments from cancer to PTSD. At the time of this peer review (20180517), Annex data from participating states were not available for comment.\nCannabidiol is not listed on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines (20th List) or the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines for Children (6th List). CBD is presently marketed by GW Pharmaceuticals in a number of countries in combination with THC in a 1:1 ratio (Sativex\u00ae). The review, however, indicates that \u201cCurrently there are no approved marketed pure CBD medicinal products, although several are in development.\u201d CBD is in development for a variety of therapeutic applications including schizophrenia, Fragile X syndrome, encephalopathies, childhood absence seizures, Neonatal Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (NHIE), and perinatal asphyxia. Perhaps CBD is most established for epilepsy. This peer reviewer considers it important to note that CBD has been found effective in clinical studies of Lennox-Gastaut and Dravet syndromes that are often resistant to other forms of medication; this observation may identify a therapeutic use of CBD for an under-served patient population. Not specifically discussed in the review was the possibility that the metabolites of CBD are responsible for any therapeutic effect it may have and not CBD itself. For example, see review (not cited) by Ujvary and Hanus (Human Metabolites of Cannabidiol: A Review on Their Formation, Biological Activity, and Relevance in Therapy. Cannabis Cannabinoid Res, 2016, 1: 90-101). This possibility has importance for drug development, and for assumptions made of the properties of the parent molecule.\nThe review identifies six countries that control CBD. The ANNEX was not available to the peer reviewer at the time of his review (20180521) to evaluate what other countries may control it. Some countries, such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand, have relaxed control over CBD in recent years in part, to make it more accessible for medical use or research.\nCannabidiol that is produced from an extract of cannabis is included in the 1961 Single Convention. There likely would be a profound impact if CBD were unscheduled on the global accessibility of this compound for medical research. An associated effect could be the increase in cultivation of cannabis sativa for purposes of obtaining CBD.\nCannabidiol is already scheduled, the present consideration regards if it should remain scheduled as is, or be scheduled elsewhere, or be unscheduled. If it is decided that CBD should be removed from the 1961 Convention, and if it is decided that THC should remain scheduled in the 1971 Convention, more information regarding the yields from laboratory conversion of CBD to THC would be helpful to consider its listing in the 1987 Convention as a precursor. The Critical Review identifies this laboratory conversion, but it is unclear how feasible this synthesis is or what magnitude of yields are possible through it. In addition, the pharmacodynamics and toxicology sections have essential limitations making it difficult to understand the possible interactions CBD may have with other drugs of abuse. Only two studies were cited regarding the abuse potential of CBD in human studies making it challenging to draw conclusions just based upon their results.\nThe Pharmacodynamics section has limitations. The review indicates that \u201cSome studies have shown that CBD may reduce or antagonize some of the effects of THC.\u201d but doesn\u2019t discuss these studies in any detail, nor does it mention that there are studies that actually report just the opposite, including those that augment the abuse-related effects of THC (e.g., see McMahon LR. Enhanced discriminative stimulus effects of Delta(9)-THC in the presence of cannabidiol and 8-OH-DPAT in rhesus monkeys. Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 2016, 165: 87-93.\u201d Overall, there is substantial scientific literature characterizing the interactions of CBD and THC and other drugs that were not covered in the review. The entire toxicology section appears to be based upon one review article and its update without a reference to a primary scientific source.\nLink Completo: https://bit.ly/2L5eLRD",

It is also very commonly used in pluming.\nCopper has been used for over 10,000 years, it was one of the first known metals to be used by man. Copper coins have been found dating back to 8,700 B.C. Many ancient artifacts have been found made of bronze (copper and iron).\nCopper is 100% recyclable and is the world's most reusable resource. Sources for recycled copper include but are not limited to copper pipe, electrical wire and roofing.\nRecycling copper reduces of the carbon dioxide that would be required to produced new copper.

        "raw_content": "Format: Hardcover in Slipcase, 1064pp.\nThe capstone of a brilliant scholar's lifelong work to establish the literary identity of the Bible, in an elegant, slipcased hardcover.\nThrough a distinguished career of critical scholarship and translation, Robert Alter has equipped us to read the Hebrew Bible as a powerful, cohesive work of literature. The culmination of this work, Alter's masterly new translation and probing commentary combine to give contemporary readers the definitive edition of The Five Books.\nAlter's majestic translation recovers the mesmerizing effect of these ancient stories\u2014the profound and haunting enigmas, the ambiguities of motive and image, and the distinctive cadences and lovely precision of the Hebrew text. Other modern translations either recast these features for contemporary clarity, thereby losing the character of the original, or fail to give readers a suitably fluid English as a point of contact. Alter's translation conveys the music and the meaning of the Hebrew text in a lyrical, lucid English. His accompanying commentary illuminates the text with learned insight and reflection on its literary and historical dimensions.\nThis brilliant and rigorous book by Alter, who teaches Hebrew and comparative literature at Berkeley, strikes the perfect balance. It delves into literary and biblical scholarship, yet is accessible to the general reader. It argues forcefully and persuasively, but is never arrogant, even when Alter is detailing the inadequacies of other biblical translations. It points to the ways a single Hebrew word can make all the difference in our understanding of the text, but it never loses the forest for the trees. In a stimulating and thorough introduction, Alter makes a case for the coherence of the Torah (the first five books of the Bible) as a whole, while acknowledging that it is \"manifestly a composite construction\" that was written and edited by many people over several centuries. He discusses why we need yet another translation, contending that every existing English translation has an anemic sense of the English language, while the King James Version\u2014the most beautiful and literary English-language translation\u2014is unreliable and sometimes inaccurate with the original Hebrew. After this energizing introduction, Alter proceeds with his eminently readable translation and fascinating footnotes on various Hebrew terms. This may well be the best one-volume introduction to the Torah ever published in English.\nRobert Alter is the Class of 1937 Professor of Hebrew and Comparative Literature at the University of California, Berkeley. He has published many acclaimed works on the Bible, literary modernism, and contemporary Hebrew literature.\nThe Five Books of Moses: The Schocken Bible, Volume 1 by Everett Fox",

        "title": "Church Coffee: Jonah and three days in the tomb",
        "raw_content": "In the earliest Christian art, the most popular representation is the Good Shepherd, a David-like figure carrying a lamb over his shoulders. After the Good Shepherd, the most popular figure is\u2026 wait for it\u2026.\nYep, Jonah. Images of Moses, Daniel, the three Hebrew young men protected within the furnace, and many other Old Testament figures are there, but not as commonly as Jonah. Why would that be?\nThe symbolism is pretty easy to put together. Jonah was in the belly of the fish for three days. Christ was in the tomb for three days. Jonah becomes an archetype of Christ.\nPart of what is so striking about this is the emphasis upon waiting, the three days in the tomb. We commonly focus on Easter, and sometimes on Good Friday, but a simple acknowledgement of our waiting on Christ, in the midst of circumstances that seem dark, even hopeless, has been largely abandoned in Protestantism.\nChristian beliefs don\u2019t function in isolated pieces. Rather, they work together like the components of an ecosystem. What happens in one area comes to bear in significant ways on other areas of belief. The three days in the tomb, then, presuppose Good Friday and Easter, but they also have their own theological significance that enriches our understanding of Good Friday, Easter, and the rest of the Christian life. Good Friday is a demonstration and acknowledgement of the depth of human sin. In the three days in the tomb we wait within the consequences of sin\u2014pain, loss, sorrow and death. And in Easter, God\u2019s power breaks in amidst all of these, conquering even our great enemy, death.\nSo back to Jonah\u2026. Perhaps the lived experience of these early Christians reminded them of the three days in the tomb. Yes, their sins had been atoned for, but their lives were still marked by difficulty, pain, and isolation. It wasn\u2019t easy to be a Christian in the earliest days of the faith, just as it isn\u2019t easy to be a Christian for many people today. The three days in the tomb presuppose the forgiveness of our sins, and look forward to God\u2019s great victory, but they also acknowledge that life in the now isn\u2019t easy.\nAs people of faith, we need to own this. Life isn\u2019t easy. If it is, then you\u2019re not really engaging with the world around you. Forms of Christianity that don\u2019t acknowledge this may attract a great many people, but they will also excel at creating ex-Christians. The paper mache life of blessing without sorrow will fall apart in the first rainstorm. Yes, God loves us, cares for us, and abides with us in the Holy Spirit. Yes, God shows up in unexpected, powerful, miraculous ways. Still\u2026 life isn\u2019t easy. The image of Jonah shows us that Christians acknowledged this from the earliest days of the faith.\nI saw an announcement from a church that is starting its Easter services tonight (Saturday). I wonder how they experience Jonah.\nThere is a related question here about the degree to which Jesus wrestled with his vocation. The synoptics depict Jesus as asking for the cup to pass if it is the Father's will, while John seems less comfortable with a Jesus who wrestles with \"the cup.\" I wonder if there is a parallel here with Jonah's own wrestling; unlike Jonah, Jesus accepts his call and even emphasizes the mission that Jonah despised - the mission to the outcast, the stranger, the other.\nThank you for some good Holy Saturday food for thought.",

        "raw_content": "A Talkative Bunch\nWe arrived at Hamilton Life Church, which has found a home in a former Baptist church building on Cromwell Road after spending time meeting at the Wynnsong movie theater on Gunbarrel Road. As we strolled up to the building we were greeted by a couple of groups of people who were gathered in front of the church. They welcomed us, engaged us in a short conversation, and a very nice lady named Theresa did a fine job of introducing us to what we would soon come to realize is a common display of hospitality at Hamilton Life Church. We headed on inside the church and were immediately greeted by a couple named Guy and Beth. They were extremely friendly and welcoming, and we spent the next little while talking to them and Michael Picou, who had spotted us and joined in the conversation. Unfortunately, Kacey was sick so Michael came to church stag this week. We helped ourselves to some coffee and they gave us some insight on the history of the church and some of the remodeling they had done to the current building to create the front lobby, which allowed room for people to gather and fellowship, just as we were doing. Before the service began, one of the lead pastors, Damon Passons, came and introduced himself as well. We definitely enjoyed the warm atmosphere and good conversation, and as the time for the service to begin rapidly approached, we parted ways and went inside the sanctuary.\nThree Ladies Superhero Skit - Hamilton Life Church\nThe sanctuary showed signs of age, but appeared to have been cleaned and spruced up very well and had new cushioned chairs rather than the old-style wood pews you would expect in a building that used to be a small Baptist church. The place was decked out with Christmas decorations, including six small Christmas trees, plenty of tinsel, strings of lights, ornaments, and bows all around. This was a group that apparently favored quantity and a \u201chomey\u201d family atmosphere over the minimalistic, chic, high-end decorations that many churches opt for these days\u2026I liked it. As the service began, a lady named Gail was invited to the front to share a poem that she had written, which I felt demonstrated that this church allowed their members to participate and be involved in the services. One of the things that has always bothered me about many churches I have attended is that it seems like none of the members have an opportunity to share. Pastors are not the only people that God chooses to speak through, so why are they the only ones we usually hear from? Churches that allow members to share messages and participate in different ways are, in my opinion, opening up the lines of communication from the Holy Spirit in many more ways than churches whose members remain silent and always defer to the pastors. Of course, that may be the exact reason those churches limit speaking duties to the pastor; they may be afraid of what might happen if they give up control and let the Holy Spirit work. I think at the very least, church members should be encouraged to bring messages that they feel are from the Spirit to the pastor or elders, who can discern whether the message edifies or exhorts the church in some way and then pass it along or allow them to share it if it seems beneficial. But that is obviously a discussion for another time\u2026back to our experience at Hamilton Life Church. We worshiped the Lord with two worship songs that were led by a full band with drums, bass, electric guitar, and keyboard. You might say that was the end of what I would call a \u201cnormal\u201d church service. What happened next was something I had never seen in church before.\nHaving Fun In Church?\nHamilton Life Church children's choir\nAfter worship, three ladies came busting through a side door at the front of the sanctuary dressed in homemade superhero costumes that were nearly blinding from the bright neon colors, glitter, and shiny fabric. The ladies put on a skit directed at the children in the congregation which illustrated the real \u201cSpirit\u201d of Christmas. They went through various scenes that dramatized the typical American over-indulgence that comes along with the holidays\u2026shopping, toys, food, candy, parties, and the gross materialism and consumerism that distracts so many from drinking in the joy and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ as we celebrate His birth. The ladies were nothing less than hilarious and were absolutely fearless in putting themselves in front of the entire congregation in ridiculous outfits so that they could connect with the children in a unique and fun way. After the skit, pastor Damon oversaw a hysterical race between several of the kids and their parents. It was the kind of game that is usually reserved for church camp, or a church retreat, or a fun activity in the fellowship hall\u2026anywhere other than the middle aisle of the sanctuary during Sunday service. But that is the type of congregation Hamilton Life Church seemed to be. A fun-loving, family-oriented group that comes together in the church like it is a second home they all share, as opposed to a stuffy, rigid crystal cathedral. The game that they played required the kids and parents to race from the front of the sanctuary to the back and grab a stuffed animal out of a basket and then run back to the front and stuff it in a big Christmas stocking. The first team to fill their stocking with stuffed animals was the winner (the deck was stacked in the kids\u2019 favor\u2026the stocking the parents had to use was HUGE). As soon as the pastor said \u201cgo\u201d it was pure pandemonium. It was the most fun I have ever seen people have in church. People were cheering, laughing, jumping around, and having a blast\u2026imagine that.\nAn Easy Sermon to Preach\nAfter the chaos of the stuffed animal race subsided, the children\u2019s choir came to the front and sang a few songs. As you can always expect when watching a children\u2019s choir in church, it was a heartwarming, cute, and funny performance. When the singing was over, the children passed out Little Debbie cakes to the congregation and then put on a skit of their own that dealt with the wrong kind of Christmas attitude in a retail setting, which can definitely bring out the worst in people. After the children finished their segment, we were shown a video from The Skit Guys and then pastor Damon came to the front to give a sermon. He spoke about joy, peace, and hope, and noted that joy is a journey and not a destination, using Romans 15:13 as a Scripture reference to encourage the congregation. Nothing against pastor Damon\u2019s sermon, but after being a part of the church service we had just experienced, preaching on joy should have been really, really easy. It was all around us. The people of Hamilton Life Church were full of it. They seemed like a big, joyful family. Laura and I left feeling like we had gotten a little bit of everything during our visit\u2026sincere worship, fun and games, a powerful message, fellowship, and good conversation. The experience that morning made me think that a lot of times we hear things at church that we do not also see or feel. Do you ever sense that? You hear a message on joy, but when you look around everyone seems cold. You hear a message on hope, but everyone looks lifeless. You hear a message on peace, but people act haughty towards you. How much more impactful is it when you hear and feel a message. When you see the people around you living and bearing the fruit of a message outwardly, then it really adds another element to the words a pastor speaks. Herbert Hoover said \u201cwords without action are the assassins of idealism\u201d, and very similarly to that, I believe church sermons without action are the assassins of faith. My takeaway from Hamilton Life Church is that no matter what I see around me or no matter how others may perceive me, I need to visibly display the peace, hope, and joy that I have in my heart as a result of my faith in God\u2019s promises and His gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. If other people can\u2019t see it in me, how will I ever prove with words that it is actually there? My Lord deserves more than just lip service!\nPrevious PostChurchSurfer @ New City Fellowship East Lake: There\u2019s a Fire Down ThereNext PostChurchSurfer @ Brainerd Baptist Church: A Double Dose of Christmas Cheer\n2 thoughts on \u201cChurchSurfer @ Hamilton Life Church: Hearing and Seeing the Message\u201d\nHamilton Life is a AWESOME church.

Butkin, 1980.269.\nPure Color: Pastels from the Cleveland Museum of Art\nPure Color: Pastels from the Cleveland Museum of Art celebrates pastels made from the second half of the 19th through the early 20th century, a remarkably creative period of richness, diversity, and experimentation in the use of the medium. During this time, works on paper were increasingly valued, collected, and exhibited as works of art in their own right. In response to this trend, the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 des Pastellistes de France was created in 1885 to promote the work of artists working in pastel; the first exhibition dedicated to the medium was held in Paris that same year.\nImpressionists Edgar Degas and Mary Cassatt were attracted by the spectrum of available colors with which they could capture the transient effects of nature and light\u2014from a windswept field of golden wheat to the blush on a youthful cheek. Post-Impressionists Odilon Redon and Claude-Emile Schuffenecker used the kaleidoscopic range of pastel to communicate their expressive and symbolic responses to the world around them. Modernist artists such as Otto Freundlich and Gino Severini used the medium on their path toward abstraction.",

He will speak with Professor Lis Harris for the Nonfiction Dialogues series on November 2nd, 2016. The event is hosted by the graduate writing program at Columbia University\u2019s School of the Arts and is open to the public.\nAndrew H. Miller:\nJames Shapiro:\nIn your single-spaced biography, the list of your lectures, awards, appointments, publications, affiliations, and fellowships goes on for over seven pages. Have you earned an award outside of your literary profession and outside of academia for which you are very proud?\nWhile winning is always better than losing, I\u2019ve been on awards committees and I\u2019ve won awards, so know enough about the process to understand that the best and edgiest work is often overlooked or undervalued. I tend to be most proud of the things that don\u2019t show up on a CV, such as working with elementary school kids on a production of Romeo and Juliet or Antigone. The last time I won an award for something outside of academia was a very long time ago\u2014in the 1970s, when I fenced competitively.\nThe last time I won an award for something outside of academia was a very long time ago\u2014in the 1970s, when I fenced competitively.\nShakespeare\u2019s popular and colloquial nicknames include The Bard, The Bard of Avon, the Sweet Swan of Avon, An Upstart Crow, The Immortal Bard, and even \u201cBill\u201d Shakespeare. Do you have any personal nicknames for him?\nGod, I hate it when I read of the \u201cBard.\u201d I don\u2019t ever use nicknames, don\u2019t like their false intimacy, their self-satisfied chumminess. Just use his name: Shakespeare, or William Shakespeare.\nI don\u2019t ever use nicknames,\nIn The Year of Lear, you show how the writing of three of Shakespeare\u2019s plays, King Lear, Macbeth, and Anthony and Cleopatra were influenced by current events in England at the time. As you wrote in Year of Lear, there were no newspapers then. Now we live in a 24-hour (or 12-hour, depending on who you ask) news cycle. Do current events affect the creation of great works of art in the same way as they did in 1606? If so, how?\nShakespeare wrote of the \u2018form and pressure\u201d of the times, and other great playwrights\u2013from Aristophanes to Lin-Manuel Miranda\u2014have understood that as well. As tough as it is recreating Shakespeare\u2019s world from the few surviving shards of information\u2014at a time when people didn\u2019t keep diaries and there weren\u2019t newspapers\u2014I would imagine that it is far tougher to do so today given the explosion of data and news and gossip. But that is the challenge facing any cultural history: gathering the evidence and trying to get the story of the past (or present) right.\nShakespeare wrote of the \u2018form and pressure\u201d of the times, and other great playwrights\u2013from Aristophanes to Lin-Manuel Miranda\u2014have understood that as well.\nInterpretations and judgments of Shakespeare\u2019s work and his identity as an artist have changed over the centuries. Scientific advancements have even facilitated a better understanding of him by examining artifacts from his life. In the future, we might learn even more about his life in the same manner. If you, knowing what you already do, could discover one additional thing about Shakespeare (or ask one question and be assured of the answer\u2019s veracity), what would it be?\nThose who imagine there are no longer discoveries to be made about Shakespeare haven\u2019t been paying attention. Just this year Heather Wolfe, an archivist at the Fogler Shakespeare Library in Washington DC, traced a new trail of allusions to Shakespeare in the College of Arms in Great Britain. And archeologists are currently at work unearthing the remains of the Curtain Theatre, where Romeo and Juliet was likely first staged. So we are learning fresh things about Shakespeare and his world all the time. If I could discover one Shakespearean artifact, it would be an early draft of one of his plays\u2014since none of a complete play survive. Did he revise? How often did he change his mind? It would be fascinating to know more about what his writing process was like.\nIf I could discover one Shakespearean artifact, it would be an early draft of one of his plays\nHow do you believe the comparative aesthetic experiences of reading versus attending a performance differs with Shakespeare\u2019s works compared to other great playwrights and artists? In other words, does the leap from the page to the stage look different for Shakespeare?\nShakespeare wrote to be performed. Had he been interested in seeing his works read he would\u2014like his rival Ben Jonson\u2014have spent a lot more time and energy seeing his works into print. Had the First Folio of his works not been published in 1623, seven years after his death, half of his plays might well have been lost to us, including Macbeth and The Tempest. While the plays are rewarding to read, they are more meaningful in performance, where they come alive before audiences, speaking to a new generation\u2019s aspirations and concerns. As for comparing Shakespeare\u2019s plays with those of other artists: it is just a shame that we don\u2019t get to see enough of the works of John Webster or Thomas Middleton staged; only then would such a comparison become possible.\nI don\u2019t know yet. I try not to chase book ideas, but let them come to me. The only books worth writing (or reading) are those that possess the writer. You can\u2019t force that.\nJames Shapiro\u2019s latest book\nWhich neighborhood of New York City do you think Shakespeare prefer to live in today, and why?\nBrooklyn, of course. If you looked at where Shakespeare lived in London you\u2019ll see that they were places where artists\u2014not just actors and playwrights but musicians and artisans\u2014lived. Manhattan was like that until the 1980s, but is now prohibitively expensive. Brooklyn may be getting that way too, but it remains a place where, if you throw a rock, you are likely to hit a writer. I suspect that Shakespeare would have found Brooklyn close enough to the kind of community he apparently sought out in Elizabethan London.\nAM: Which neighborhood of New York City do you think Shakespeare prefer to live in today, and why?\nJS: Brooklyn, of course.\nWhat is, in your opinion, the most disastrous attempt \u2013 at any point in history, or today \u2013 to criticize the virtues Shakespeare\u2019s of work or to excise his work from its place in Western literary canon?\nI think the opposite danger is greater: mandating his works. Every few years some right-wing organization comes out with a report claiming that Shakespeare isn\u2019t required in colleges\u2014but ought to be. I hated Shakespeare in high school and never took a Shakespeare course in college (I went to Columbia as an undergrad). I would have resented being forced to study his works. My own connection to (and love of) his plays came through seeing them in the theater. Forcing Shakespeare on young people is a foolish idea, especially when done poorly, for it threatens to turn them off to his works for the rest of their lives.\nCan you discuss ways that Shakespeare\u2019s work fails to inform or support our contemporary understanding of gender equality and marriage equality, and ways that it succeeds\nShakespeare\u2019s plays\u2014especially in performance\u2014illuminate many of the questions about gender and sexuality that continue to preoccupy us today\u2014from cross-dressing and the performance of gender to strained relationships, bed-tricks, and sexual assault. And, in performance, they raise the question of who gets to speak Shakespeare\u2019s words (not only in gender-blind casting of minor roles, but increasingly, who gets to play King Lear or Prospero).\nIf you attempted to draw an arc by plotting the themes and strengths of Shakespeare\u2019s life\u2019s work, where do you imagine that arc would lead if he had lived into his 60\u2019s, 70\u2019s, or 80\u2019s?\nTheater, in Shakespeare\u2019s day, was a young person\u2019s game\u2014in truth, with very few exceptions, a young man\u2019s game. Actors didn\u2019t play Lear in their 60\u2019s or 70\u2019s or 80\u2019s as they do today (Richard Burbage, who first played Lear, was then in his 40\u2019s). Playwrights tended to be quite young as well. So it is hard, if not impossible, for me to imagine Shakespeare at 70. We do well to remember that though he died at what would be considered young today, at 52, none of his brothers would live that long.\nWhat is a fact about Shakespeare or his work that, in your opinion, every reader should know \u2014 but probably doesn\u2019t?\nThat Shakespeare collaborated. We tend to associate him with a kind of solitary genius: a portrait that he would have found strange, and wrong-headed. Whether it was his early co-authorship with George Peele in Titus Andronicus, or later collaborations with George Wilkins in Pericles, Thomas Middleton in Timon of Athens, John Fletcher in Henry VIII and The Two Noble Kinsmen, and the musicians Thomas Morley in As You Like It and Robert Johnson in The Tempest and other late plays, Shakespeare was always on the lookout for how to connect with other creative minds.\nJames Shapiro\u2019s full biography:\nJames Shapiro is the Larry Miller Professor of English at Columbia University, where he has taught since 1985. His books include Shakespeare and the Jews (1996), recently republished in a 20th anniversary edition; 1599: A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare (2005), Contested Will (2010), the anthology Shakespeare in America (2014), and most recently The Year of Lear: Shakespeare in 1606 (2015). He has also co-authored and presented two BBC documentaries: Shakespeare: The King\u2019s Man and The Mysterious Mr. Webster. He serves on the Board of Directors of the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Board of Governors of the Folger Shakespeare Library, is Shakespeare Scholar in Residence at New York\u2019s Public Theater, and has been inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.\nGet Real: Once Upon a Time in Central Park",

The voters then get to argue and discuss the candidates, sometimes in a very animated and forceful manner. That is, in the Democratic Party, candidates win delegates to the national convention in proportion to the outcome of the primary or caucus. Sometimes, they have nothing to do with any party but are focused on achieving a goal, an issue, that they believe is worth fighting for. Such donations are the traditional source of funding for all right-of-centre cadre parties.\nWhat are the differences between political parties and pressure groups? What are the similarities?\nParty conferences are also held in order to affirm party values for members in the coming year. Either way, the party system will be upended as a result of a party realignment, or a shifting of party allegiances within the electorate. I myself am a twin and while my brother and I share many of the same characteristics, we are still very much unique in our own ways. After all, you are more likely to vote if you care about who wins and who loses. You two may be best friends because you share a good deal in common, but chances are you don't share everything in common. The Democrats want to redistribute the wealth of individuals so that the poor get more aid.\nDifference Between Political Parties and Interest Groups\nThe two main political parties in the United States\u2014the Democrats and the Republicans\u2014work differently, but both strive to achieve the same electoral end. Before refocusing her educational path toward language, she originally went to school to become an artist. These local party branches reflect the officer positions at the national level. They channel belief about authority and power through an organization. These positions on these critical issues are often presented in campaign documents or political advertising.\nWhat is the difference between political party and interest group\nNew York: Random House, 107. In most other countries, this decision of who to officially sponsor as a party nominee is made by small insider groups of party officials either by some form of central committee or convention. Parties need to be aware when society changes. In western Europe, Canada, the United States, and Japan, for example, each of the five types of interests are represented in large numbers and have developed sophisticated strategies and. An interest group that is supportive of equal rights for all Americans would associate with the Democrat Party. Famously, was found to have been selling peerages.\n5 Important Differences between \u201cInterest Groups\u201d and \u201cPolitical Parties\u201d\nSince voters do not like to waste votes, third parties must convince voters they have a real chance of winning races before voters will take them seriously. Such interests lack a or permanent structure. Where interest groups often work indirectly to influence our leaders, political parties are organizations that try to directly influence public policy through nominating and officially sponsoring members who seek to win and hold public office. Ninety-three percent of African Americans and 71 percent of Hispanics voted for Obama instead of Romney. The ruling party is legally permitted to use state power in all forms that are expedient for the purposes of the state.\nPolitical parties organize political campaigns to win public office for those they nominate. That does not necessarily mean that they should have a constitution and so on for their work. Essentially, the other states are either solid or strongly leaning to one party or the other. Following this disaster set about assembling a new coalition of forces. Republicans tend to focus more on business, to provide jobs for the poor to take care of themselves. In fact, it is one of their major themes to reconcile the diverse forces within political society.\nBecause of this, it could be argued that there will always be a place for trying to gather a wide consensus on a multitude of issues, and there will always be a place for a group of people who want to focus on a single issue \u2014 in other words, interest groups will most likely never replace political parties, but they will continue to work side-by-side, at least into the foreseeable future. Mass parties tried to recruit new members who were a source of party income and were often expected to spread party ideology as well as assist in elections. Nader, a longtime consumer activist concerned with environmental issues and social justice, attracted many votes from people who usually voted for Democratic candidates. In A Block for the Wigs 1783 , caricatured Fox's return to power in a coalition with North. They take on the challenges themselves without having representatives. Those who favor stability of the current political and economic system tended to vote Republican, whereas those who would most benefit from changing the system usually favored Democrat candidates.\nPolitical Parties: What are they and how do they function?\nThese laws, as well as the actions of candidates and the agendas the interest groups support, all affect the strategies they use during elections. Communist parties often use a to represent the worker, a to represent the farmer, or to refer to both at the same time. But at some point, a society must find a way of taking all these opinions and turning them into solutions to real problems. However, they differ slightly in some key ways. Depending on the issue interest groups tend to support a political party. A very traditional democratic group\u2014those with high school education or less\u2014was lost to Republicans, with Trump gaining 51% of this group.\nPolitical Parties vs. Interest Groups\nPeople will know beforehand how an interest group feels about a certain issue. Members of a political party generally all have similar views, but each member doesn't have to agree on every issue. The creation of a strict party and a formal party structure was unique at the time. Political parties, in fact, focus on a variety of different aspects i. This is the main difference between political parties and interest groups.\nFirst, most elections at the state and national levels are winner-take-all: The candidate who receives the greatest overall number of votes wins. Interest groups are involved in the political sphere of the country but they do not directly participate in elections, although they can support one candidate or one political party that shares their point of view. A political party exists to gain power through elections by supporting one or more candidates. As third party movements have learned, the Electoral College's requirement of a nationally distributed majority makes it difficult for third parties to succeed. Two major parties would dominate the political landscape for the next quarter-century: the , led by , and the , established by from the and from other Anti-Jackson groups.",

        "raw_content": "Towards the future at the speed of light\nPhotonics21 Annual meeting\nIt's great to be back among you again. Last year, we met and I set out the role of Photonics in European growth. I knew then that, if we decide to move together in the right direction, we can surely make things happen. And in particular, I invited you to engage in an ambitious new public private partnership in the field of photonics. I'm delighted to say that your response to that challenge has been impressive. And there has been much fruitful activity over the course of this year.sentence permalink\nSo today I'd like to remind you, first, how photonics is an economically and socially essential part of the European Union's wider research programme. Second, how we need to help and work with the young people in particular who face gloomy employment prospects. And third, a look ahead to next steps: including on the public private partnership.sentence permalink\nIt's always a pleasure to speak to this group. Not just because you're always so welcoming. But because in the current crisis it's a pleasure to find a sector so economically vibrant. A world market of \u20ac300 billion, growing at 8% a year. An area where Europe is a major player. And an area with huge potential to power our future.sentence permalink\nIn future, photonics-based communications could, and I dare to say, will, create new markets, new ways of manufacturing, new ways of doing business.sentence permalink\nAnd look beyond the economic benefits.\nSolid state lighting could cut energy consumption: while making your home or workplace much more pleasant. And by the way, many thanks to all of you who took the time to respond to our recent consultation on the \"Lighting the Future\" Green Paper.sentence permalink\nMeanwhile, in health care, photonics will allow cancer detection and treatment that is more effective and less invasive. Imagine the lives saved and those made more bearable.sentence permalink\nWith great statistics and stories like that, you should all be proud to be part of this achievement: I am.sentence permalink\nBut there is a wider context. I realise that these days, people question all public expenditure. But, we have to remember that research and innovation hold the key to Europe's future competitiveness: acting now pays a rich dividend in future.sentence permalink\nThat is why we proposed Horizon 2020, the next generation of research funding. And photonics is prominent in that as a key enabling technology.sentence permalink\nI want your help. First, you can help us work on the details of implementation. We need to look further at how, for example, photonics can contribute to the wider societal challenges we are tackling, like health or smart cities.sentence permalink\nAlso, as you can imagine, this proposal is the subject of a lot of discussion with the Member States and European Parliament. But more than that, we need you to act as ambassadors. That means going out to your national governments and the MEPs who represent you \u2013 and help us make the case. Show them the great examples of the bold changes photonics has already given us and the vision of the great things it could do in the future. And explain why we need Horizon 2020 to provide that boost.sentence permalink\nBecause if you share my conviction that research and innovation will be at the heart of economic recovery, then join with me and make your voices heard. I assure you, all of those ministers, all of those MEPs, are looking for the economic good news: we have it, you have something to give to them.sentence permalink\nAnd let's never forget what our main goal has to be these days. Our young people face catastrophic unemployment: we must give them hope to see beyond that horrible prospect. Dealing with this, for me, has to be the objective at the heart of all our actions.sentence permalink\nI'm proud to have two talented young people from the field of Photonics in my own group of \"Young Advisers\" \u2013 Efstratios and Leontios \u2013 and I'm delighted they're both here today.sentence permalink\nAnd I never forget that today's young people could be the scientists, the engineers and the entrepreneurs of the future. This is a sector able to provide employment \u2013 indeed, ICT in Europe is facing a shortage of talent, a shortage reaching 700,000 people by 2015. We need to get young people more interested in these careers. Especially, I might add, young women, who are vastly under-represented.sentence permalink\nSo it's great to see the initiatives you're taking in Photonics21 to reach out to children, including at school. We need more of that. Because we need to help these people, and stop them becoming a 'lost generation'.sentence permalink\nFinally, let me close with a few words on the next steps: in particular, the public private partnership.sentence permalink\nThis is a major opportunity. This partnership between the public funder and industry can drive innovation. With strong commitments from all partners we can really harness the power of photonics and get the most impact from all our resources.sentence permalink\nSo I am delighted that you've made significant progress towards this goal. Thank you. I know that took a lot of effort and commitment.sentence permalink\nWhat next? Well, as I said, the major issue at the moment is to agree the overall Horizon 2020 package. Of course, this is in the hands of the legislator. But I myself would hope that it is agreed by the end of this year.sentence permalink\nOnce that is done, we need to get going pretty quickly. With the right preparatory work, the PPPs themselves could be ready to launch in 2013. With first calls by the end of that year. This will be a great opportunity to work together.sentence permalink\nSo, once again, thank you to you all. And in particular to Martin Goetzeler. Martin, I am very sad to hear this is your last meeting as President of Photonics21. I would like to personally thank you for the great job you have done \u2013 I appreciate and recognise it, and I'm sure I speak for others here too. Not just all you've done for this group: but for all you've done to drive this great and formidable European sector.sentence permalink",

        "raw_content": "How do we speak in this tumultuous time?\nThese early days of a polarizing presidential administration bring great opportunity but also great risk for the blood-bought community.\nWhat we say is especially important, but so is how we say it. In fact, whether or when we speak also is a vital consideration for followers of Jesus.\nThe week after the inauguration of President Trump appeared to act like a release valve for some Americans, including some Christians. Pent-up anger that had mounted during the previous administration poured forth on social media. While much of that seems to have subsided, the spate of presidential executive orders -- especially the one halting temporarily the refugee resettlement program -- and the Supreme Court nomination have managed to keep things stirred up.\nIn this cultural moment, we need to be sensitive to the communication and reception of the church's testimony regarding our Lord and Savior. We can speak and write in a way that strongly affirms God's holiness while tenderly expressing His mercy. That would hopefully -- thought not assuredly -- prove attractive to others, including those who oppose us. Or we can speak and write in a way that powerfully proclaims our convictions but seems to offer no compassion for other sinners. That would prove self-defeating for the church and our gospel message.\nAfter all, we are people of the Book, and that Book tells us:\nConduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity. Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person (Col. 4:5-6).\nAs a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming; but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ (Eph. 4:14-15).\nA gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger (Prov. 15:1).\nSo how should we as Jesus' disciples navigate the choppy waters in the early days of the Trump administration and the societal dispute that has greeted it? Here are a few suggestions for myself and my brothers and sisters in the faith:\n1. Clarify your allegiance. All our interactions should make clear our loyalty is first and always to the Lord Jesus and His kingdom, not to any public official and any government. No Christian should be a shill for the president or another office holder. No Christian should be blindly loyal to the president or another office holder. The faithfulness and effectiveness of our public witness depends on this.\n2. Commend the good and oppose the bad. As Christians, we should be grateful for and applaud government actions that affirm such biblically based tenets as the dignity of human life, the exclusivity of male-female marriage and the free exercise of religion. We have already had opportunities to do this in the Trump administration. He signed an executive order Jan. 23 reinstating a ban on federal funds for organizations that perform or promote abortions overseas. For that we should express our gratitude. Yet, the White House announced Jan. 31 Trump would continue to enforce President Obama's executive order designed to protect LGBTQ employees from discrimination by federal contractors without religious liberty protections for those employers. For that we should call for a change in the policy.\n3. Communicate with compassion. When declaring our viewpoint on social media and in other venues, we should do it in such a way as to demonstrate a desire to understand others involved in the conversation and to leave space for a continuation of our interaction. Some people may oppose us. Some may be uncertain regarding what they believe. All should encounter Christians who are willing to be criticized and questioned without responding in anger or defensiveness. Those who oppose us are image bearers of God like us. Those who oppose us may be our brothers and sisters in Christ one day.",

        "raw_content": "(Redirected from Army of Macedon)\nThis article is about the army of the Kingdom of Macedonia under Philip II and Alexander the Great. For the army of the Kingdom of Macedonia under the Antigonid dynasty, see Antigonid Macedonian army.\nThe army of the Kingdom of Macedon was among the greatest military forces of the ancient world. It was created and made formidable by King Philip II of Macedon; previously the army of Macedon had been of little account in the politics of the Greek world, and Macedonia had been regarded as a second-rate power.\nParticipant in Rise of Macedon, Alexander's Balkan campaign, the Wars of Alexander the Great\nHypaspist in light equipment (modern reconstruction)\nPhilip II of Macedon, Alexander III of Macedon\nPella, Babylon\nGreece, Illyria, Thrace, Danube Delta, Asia Minor, Syria, Phoenicia, Judea, Egypt, Mesopotamia, Babylonia, Persia, Sogdiana, Bactria, Punjab, India\n32,000+ - the field army for Alexander the Great's invasion of the Achaemenid Empire - according to Diodorus Siculus. This figure fluctuated, for example at Gaugamela, Alexander commanded at least 47,000 soldiers.\nKingdom of Macedon\nArmies of the Diadochi - Hellenistic armies (Antigonid Macedonian army, Seleucid army, Ptolemaic army)\nLeague of Corinth.\nIllyrians, Thracians, Phocis, Athens, Thebes, Sparta, Achaemenid Empire, Kingdom of Porus, Scythians.\nBattle of Crocus Field, Battle of Chaeronea, Battle of Thebes, Battle of Granicus, Battle of Issus, Battle of Gaugamela, Battle of the Hydaspes\nThe latest innovations in weapons and tactics were adopted and refined by Philip II, and he created a uniquely flexible and effective army. By introducing military service as a full-time occupation, Philip was able to drill his men regularly, ensuring unity and cohesion in his ranks. In a remarkably short time, this led to the creation of one of the finest military machines of the ancient world.\nTactical improvements included the latest developments in the deployment of the traditional Greek phalanx made by men such as Epaminondas of Thebes and Iphicrates of Athens. Philip II improved on these military innovators by using both Epaminondas' deeper phalanx and Iphicrates' combination of a longer spear and smaller and lighter shield. However, the Macedonian king also innovated; he introduced the use of a much longer spear, the two-handed pike. The Macedonian pike, the sarissa, gave its wielder many advantages both offensively and defensively. For the first time in Greek warfare, cavalry became a decisive arm in battle. The Macedonian army perfected the co-ordination of different troop types, an early example of combined arms tactics \u2014 the heavy infantry phalanx, skirmish infantry, archers, light and heavy cavalry, and siege engines were all deployed in battle; each troop type being used to its own particular advantage and creating a synergy of mutual support.\nThe new Macedonian army was an amalgamation of different forces. Macedonians and other Greeks (especially Thessalian cavalry) and a wide range of mercenaries from across the Aegean and Balkans were employed by Phillip. By 338 BC, more than a half of the army for his planned invasion of the Achaemenid Empire of Persia came from outside the borders of Macedon \u2014 from all over the Greek world and the nearby barbarian tribes, such as the Illyrians, Paeonians, and Thracians.\nUnfortunately, most of the primary historical sources for this period have been lost. As a consequence, scholarship is largely reliant on the works of Diodorus Siculus and Arrian, plus the incomplete writings of Curtius, all of whom lived centuries later than the events they describe.[1]\nPhilip II of Macedon - Roman medallion depicting the Macedonian king.\nIf Philip II of Macedon had not been the father of Alexander the Great, he would be more widely known as a first-rate military innovator, tactician and strategist, and as a consummate politician. The conquests of Alexander would have been impossible without the army his father created. Considered semi-barbarous by some metropolitan Greeks, the Macedonians were a martial people; they drank deeply of unwatered wine (the very mark of a barbarian) and no youth was considered to be fit to sit with the men at table until he had killed, on foot with a spear, a wild boar.[2]\nWhen Philip took over control of Macedon, it was a backward state on the fringes of the Greek world and was beset by its traditional enemies: Illyrians, Paeonians and Thracians. The basic structure of the army inherited by Philip II was the division of the companion cavalry (hetairoi) from the foot companions (pezhetairoi), augmented by various allied troops, foreign levied soldiers, and mercenaries.[3] The foot companions existed perhaps since the reign of Alexander I of Macedon, while Macedonian troops are accounted for in the history of Herodotus as subjects of the Persian Empire fighting the Greeks at the Battle of Plataea in 479 BC.[4] Macedonian cavalry, wearing muscled cuirasses, became renowned in Greece during and after their involvement in the Peloponnesian War (431\u2013404 BC), at times siding with either Athens or Sparta and supplemented by local Greek infantry instead of relying on Macedonian infantry.[5] Macedonian infantry in this period consisted of poorly trained shepherds and farmers, while the cavalry was composed of noblemen eager to win glory.[6] An early 4th-century BC stone-carved relief from Pella shows a Macedonian hoplite infantryman wearing a pilos helmet and wielding a short sword showing a pronounced Spartan influence on the Macedonian army before Philip II.[7]\nNicholas Sekunda states that at the beginning of Philip II's reign in 359 BC, the Macedonian army consisted of 10,000 infantry and 600 cavalry, the latter figure similar to that recorded for the 5th century BC.[8] However, Malcolm Errington cautions that any figures for Macedonian troop sizes provided by ancient authors should be treated with a degree of skepticism, since there are very few means by which modern historians are capable of confirming their veracity (and could have been possibly lower or even higher than the numbers stated).[9]\nThe Alexander Mosaic showing the Battle of Issus; a Roman copy of a Hellenistic painting, c. 100 BC\nPhilip's first achievement was to unify Macedon through his army. He raised troops and made his army the single fount of wealth, honour and power in the land; the unruly chieftains of Macedonia became the officers and elite cavalrymen of the army, the highland peasants became the footsoldiers. Philip took pains to keep them always under arms and either fighting or drilling. Manoeuvres and drills were made into competitive events, and the truculent Macedonians vied with each other to excel.[10]\nAs a political counterbalance to the native-born Macedonian nobility, Philip invited military families from throughout Greece to settle on lands he had conquered or confiscated from his enemies, these 'personal clients' then also served as army officers or in the Companion cavalry. After taking control of the gold-rich mines of Mount Pangaeus, and the city of Amphipolis that dominated the region, he obtained the wealth to support a large army, moreover it was a professional army imbued with a national spirit. By the time of his death, Philip's army had pushed the Macedonian frontier into southern Illyria, conquered the Paeonians and Thracians, asserted a hegemony over Thessaly, destroyed the power of Phocis and defeated and humbled Athens and Thebes. All the states of Greece, with the exception of Sparta, Epirus and Crete, had become subservient allies of Macedon (League of Corinth) and Philip was laying the foundations of an invasion of the Persian Empire, an invasion that his son would successfully undertake.[11]\nOne important military innovation of Philip II is often overlooked, he banned the use of wheeled transport and limited the number of camp servants to one to every ten infantrymen and one each for the cavalry. This reform made the baggage train of the army very small for its size and improved its speed of march.[12]\nTroop types and unit organisationEdit\nHeavy cavalryEdit\nThe Companion cavalryEdit\nMain article: Companion cavalry\nCoin of Perdikkas II showing a Macedonian cavalryman armed with two long javelins\nAlexander the Great as a cavalryman. He wears a helmet in the form of the lion-scalp of Herakles. Detail of the so-called Alexander Sarcophagus, excavated at Sidon.\nMacedonian cavalryman (wearing a Thracian helmet and wielding a xyston lance) riding down a Persian footsoldier, fresco in the Kinch Tomb, 310-290 BC, Lefkadia\nThe Companion cavalry, or Hetairoi (\u1f19\u03c4\u03b1\u1fd6\u03c1\u03bf\u03b9), were the elite arm of the Macedonian army, and have been regarded as the finest quality cavalry in the ancient world. Along with Thessalian cavalry contingents, the Companions \u2014 raised from landed nobility \u2014 made up the bulk of the Macedonian heavy cavalry. Central Macedonia was good horse-rearing country and cavalry was prominent in Macedonian armies from early times. However, it was the reforms in organisation, drill and tactics introduced by Philip II that transformed the Companion cavalry into a battle-winning force, especially the introduction of, or increased emphasis on, the use of a lance and shock tactics. Coinage indicates that from an early period the primary weapons used by Macedonian cavalry were a pair of javelins. This remained true through to the reign of Archelaus I (413-399). Subsequently, despite the adoption of the lance, it is highly probable that the Companion cavalry continued to employ javelins when on scouting or skirmishing missions.[13]\nThe hetairoi were divided into squadrons called ilai (singular: il\u0113), each 200 men strong, except for the Royal Squadron, which numbered 300. The Royal Squadron was also known as the Agema - \"that which leads\". Each squadron was commanded by an ilarch\u0113s (ilarch) and appears to have been raised from a particular area of Macedon. Arrian, for instance, described squadrons from Bottiaea, Amphipolis, Apollonia and Anthemus.[14] It is probable that Alexander took eight squadrons with him on his invasion of Asia totalling 1,800 men, leaving seven ilai behind in Macedon (the 1,500 cavalrymen mentioned by Diodorus).[15] Between 330 BC and 328 BC, the Companions were reformed into regiments (hipparchies) of 2-3 squadrons. In conjunction with this, each squadron was divided into two lochoi. This was probably undertaken to allow for the increase in size of each squadron, as reinforcements and amalgamations meant that the Companion cavalry grew in size. At this time, Alexander abandoned the regional organisation of the ilai, choosing their officers regardless of their origins.[16]\nThe individual Companion cavalry squadrons were usually deployed in a wedge formation, which facilitated both manoeuvrability and the shock of the charge. The advantage of the wedge was that it offered a narrow point for piercing enemy formations and concentrated the leaders at the front. It was easier to turn than a square formation because everyone followed the leader at the apex, \"like a flight of cranes\". Philip II introduced the formation, probably in emulation of Thracian and Scythian cavalry, though the example of the rhomboid formation adopted by Macedon's southern neighbours, the Thessalians, must also have had some effect.[17]\nThe primary weapon of the Macedonian cavalry was the xyston, a double ended cornel-wood lance, with a sword as a secondary weapon. From descriptions of combat, it would appear that once in melee the Companion cavalryman used his lance to thrust at the chests and faces of the enemy. It is possible that the lance was aimed at the upper body of an opposing cavalryman in the expectation that a blow which did not wound or kill might have sufficient leverage to unseat. If the lance broke, the Companion could reverse it and use the other end, or draw his sword. Cleitus, an officer of the Companions, saved Alexander the Great's life at the Granicus by cutting off an enemy horseman's arm with his sword.[18] Companion cavalrymen would normally have worn armour and a helmet in battle.[19]\nAlthough the Companion cavalry is largely regarded as the first real shock cavalry of Antiquity, it seems that Alexander was very wary of using it against well-formed infantry, as attested by Arrian in his account of the battle against the Malli, an Indian tribe he faced after Hydaspes. There, Alexander did not dare assault the dense infantry formation with his cavalry, but rather waited for his infantry to arrive, while he and his cavalry harassed their flanks.[20] It is a common mistake to portray the Companion cavalry as a force able to burst through compact infantry lines. Alexander usually launched the Companions at the enemy after a gap had opened up between their units or disorder had already disrupted their ranks. However, the ancient historian Arrian implies that the Companion cavalry were successful in an assault, along with heavy infantry, on the Greek mercenary hoplites serving Persia in the closing stages of the Battle of Granicus. Their success may have been largely due to the poor morale of the hoplites, who had just witnessed the rest of their army broken and put to flight.[21]\nThe original 1,800 Companions who accompanied Alexander to Asia were augmented by 300 reinforcements arriving from Macedon after the first year of campaigning. They were usually arrayed on the right flank (this being the position of honour in Hellenic armies, where the best troops would be positioned), and typically carried out the decisive manoeuvre/assault of the battle under Alexander's direct leadership.[22]\nThessalian cavalryEdit\nA heavy cavalryman of Alexander the Great's army, possibly a Thessalian. He wears a cuirass (probably a linothorax) and a Boeotian helmet, and is equipped with a scabbarded xiphos straight-bladed sword. Alexander Sarcophagus.\nFollowing the defeat of Lycophron of Pherae and Onomarchos of Phocis, Philip II of Macedon was appointed Archon of the Thessalian League; his death induced the Thessalians to attempt to throw off Macedonian hegemony, but a short bloodless campaign by Alexander restored them to allegiance. The Thessalians were considered the finest cavalry of Greece.[23]\nThe Thessalian heavy cavalry accompanied Alexander during the first half of his Asian campaign and continued to be employed by the Macedonians as allies until Macedon's final demise at the hands of the Romans. Its organization and weaponry were similar to the Companion Cavalry, though the earlier Thessalian way of fighting emphasised the use of javelins.[24] The Thessalian cavalry was famed for its use of rhomboid formations, said to have been developed by the Thessalian Tagos (head of the Thessalian League) Jason of Pherae. This formation was very efficient for manoeuvring, as it allowed the squadron to change direction at speed while still retaining cohesion.[25] The numbers given for Alexander's invasion of the Persian Empire included 1,800 such men. This number would have risen no higher than 2,000. They were typically entrusted with the defensive role of guarding the left flank from enemy cavalry, allowing the decisive attack to be launched on the right. They often faced tremendous opposition when in this role. At Issus and Gaugamela, the Thessalians withstood the attack of Persian cavalry forces, though greatly outnumbered.[26]\nAt Ecbatana, the Thessalians with Alexander's army were disbanded and sent home. Some remained with the army as mercenaries, yet these too were sent home a year later when the army reached the Oxus River.[26]\nOther Greek cavalryEdit\nThe Hellenic states allied to, or more accurately under the hegemony of, Macedon provided contingents of heavy cavalry and the Macedonian kings hired mercenaries of the same origins. Alexander had 600 Greek cavalrymen at the start of his campaign against Persia, probably organised into 5 ilai. These cavalrymen would have been equipped very similarly to the Thessalians and Companions, but they deployed in a square formation eight deep and sixteen abreast.[15] The Greek cavalry was not considered as effective or versatile as the Thessalian and Macedonian cavalry.[27]\nLight cavalryEdit\nLight cavalry, such as the prodromoi (literal trans. \"those who run ahead\"), secured the wings of the army during battle and went on reconnaissance missions. There is some ambiguity concerning the use of the term prodromoi by the sources; it may have been used to describe any cavalry undertaking a scouting, skirmishing or screening mission, or it may have denoted a single unit, or indeed both.[28] Apart from the prodromoi (in the sense of a single unit), other horsemen from subject or allied nations, filling various tactical roles and wielding a variety weapons, rounded out the cavalry. By the time Alexander campaigned in India, and subsequently, the cavalry had been drastically reformed and included thousands of horse-archers from Iranian peoples such as the Dahae (prominent at the Battle of Hydaspes), other mounted missile troops.\nProdromoi/Sarissophoroi (cavalry unit)Edit\nMain article: Prodromoi\nMain article: Sarissophoroi\nScholarship is divided as to the ethnic composition of the prodromoi of the Macedonian army. Most authorities regard the prodromoi as being raised from Macedonians, which would parallel the Athenian prodromoi, who were raised from the Thetes, the lowest census class of Athenian citizens.[28] Sekunda, however, gives them an origin from Thrace.[29] Arrian usually differentiates the prodromoi from the Paeonian light cavalry, which suggests a fixed ethnic composition.[28] This uncertainty is probably due to the lack of a definite understanding of the use of the term prodromoi by the primary sources, referred to above. The prodromoi, are sometimes referred to as sarissophoroi, \"pikemen\" or \"lancers\", which leads to the conclusion that they sometimes were armed with an uncommonly long xyston (believed to be 14 ft long), though certainly not an infantry pike. In the primary sources, Arrian mentions that Aretes commanded the prodromoi; in the same context Curtius says that Aretes commanded the sarissophoroi. It would appear that the same unit of cavalry was known by both names.[30]\nThe prodromoi/sarissophoroi acted as scouts, reconnoitering in front of the army when it was on the march. In battle, they were used in a shock role to protect the right flank of the Companion cavalry. Persian light cavalry took over these duties when they became available to the Macedonian army following Gaugamela. The prodromoi then assumed a purely battlefield role as shock cavalry. It is possible that the prodromoi, due to their skill in wielding long lances and their extensive battle experience, were considered more valuable in the role of shock cavalry, especially after the departure of the Thessalian cavalry. Four ilai, each 150 strong, of prodromoi operated with Alexander's army in Asia.[31]\nAt Gaugamela, the prodromoi under Aretes were responsible for finally routing the Persian left wing cavalry, winning the battle in this sector.[26]\nPaeonian cavalryEdit\nThese light cavalry were recruited from Paeonia, a tribal region to the north of Macedonia. The Paeones had been conquered and reduced to tributary status by Philip II. Led by their own chieftains, the Paeonian cavalry was usually brigaded with the Prodromoi and often operated alongside them in battle. They appear to have been armed with javelins and swords and are, unusually, described as carrying shields. Initially, only one squadron strong, they received 500 reinforcements in Egypt and a further 600 at Susa.[32]\nThracian cavalryEdit\nJavelin-armed Thracian horseman - hunting wild boar.\nLargely recruited from the Odrysian tribe, the Thracian cavalry also acted as scouts on the march. In battle, they performed much the same function as the Prodromoi and Paeonians, except they guarded the flank of the Thessalian cavalry on the left wing of the army. The Thracians deployed in their ancestral wedge formations and were armed with javelins and swords. At Gaugamela, the Thracians fielded four ilai and were about 500 strong.[32]\nHorse archersEdit\nIn 329 BC, Alexander, while in Sogdiana, created a 1,000 strong unit of horse archers that was recruited from various Iranian peoples. They were very effective at scouting and in screening the rest of the army from the enemy. Firing their bows whilst mounted, they offered highly mobile missile fire on the battlefield. At the Battle of Hydaspes, the massed fire of the horse archers was effective at disordering the Indian cavalry and helped to neutralise the Indian chariots.[33]\nHeavy infantryEdit\nThe Foot CompanionsEdit\nFurther information: Macedonian phalanx\nA drawing of a Macedonian phalanx. The shields depicted are smaller and lighter than those employed in a traditional hoplite phalanx, the sarissa is twice as long as the hoplite spear and fully enclosed helmets weren't as widespread as this drawing suggests.\nPainted depiction of a soldier wearing the linothorax, from an ancient Macedonian tomb of Mieza, Macedonia in Imathia, Greece, 4th century BC\nSuitable men from the Macedonian peasantry were recruited into an infantry formation, called the phalanx. It was developed by Philip II, and later used by his son Alexander the Great in his conquest of the Achaemenid Persian Empire. These infantrymen were called Pezhetairoi, which translates as 'Foot Companions'.[34]\nPhilip II spent much of his youth as a hostage at Thebes, where he studied under the renowned general Epaminondas, whose reforms formed the basis of Philip's later tactics. The equipment of the Macedonian phalangite is believed to have been influenced by the 'peltast' developed by the Athenian general Iphicrates. The Iphicratean peltast was not a skirmisher but a form of light hoplite, characterised by using a longer spear and smaller shield.[35] However, the introduction of the sarissa pike in conjunction with a smaller shield seem to have been innovations devised by Philip himself, or at the very least he produced the definitive synthesis of earlier developments.[36] Diodorus claimed that Philip was inspired to make changes in the organisation of his Macedonian infantry from reading a passage in the writings of Homer describing a close-packed formation.[37]\nImitating the Greek example of martial exercises and issuing of standard equipment for citizen soldiery, Philip II transformed the Macedonian army from a levied force of farmers into a well-trained fighting force.[38] Foot Companions were levied from the peasantry of Macedon. Once levied they became professional soldiers. Discharge could only be granted by the King. Under Philip, the Foot Companions received no regular pay. This seems to have changed by Alexander's time as during the mutiny at Opis in 324 BC, the men were chastised by Alexander for having run up debts despite earning \"good pay\".[39] Through extensive drilling and training, the Foot Companions were able to execute complex manoeuvres in absolute silence, an ability that was fascinating and unnerving to enemies.[40]\nThese soldiers fought in close-ranked rectangular or square formations, of which the smallest tactical unit was the 256 men strong syntagma or speira. This formation typically fought eight or sixteen men deep and in a frontage of thirty-two or sixteen men accordingly. Each file of 16 men, a lochos, was commanded by a lochagos who was in the front rank. Junior officers, one at the rear and one in the centre, were in place to steady the ranks and maintain the cohesion of the formation, similar to modern-day NCOs. The commander of the syntagma theoretically fought at the head of the extreme far-right file. According to Aelian, a syntagma was accompanied by five additional individuals to the rear: a herald (to act as a messenger), a trumpeter (to sound out commands), an ensign (to hold the unit's standard), an additional officer (called ouragos), and a servant. This array of both audial and visual communication methods helped to make sure that even in the dust and din of battle orders could still be received and given. Six syntagmata formed a taxis of 1,500 men commanded by a strategos, a variable number of taxeis formed a phalanx under a phalangiarch. On his Asian campaign, Alexander, had a phalanx of 6 veteran taxeis, numbering 9,000 men. Between Susa and India a seventh taxis was created. Antipater, as regent in Macedonia, was left with 8 taxeis of younger, less-experienced recruits.[41]\nEach phalangite carried as his primary weapon a sarissa, which was a type of pike. The length of these pikes was such that they had to be wielded with two hands in battle. The traditional Greek hoplite used his spear single-handed, as the large hoplon shield needed to be gripped by the left hand, therefore the Macedonian phalangite gained in both weapon reach and in the added force of a two handed thrust. At close range, such large weapons were of little use, but an intact phalanx could easily keep its enemies at a distance; the weapons of the first five rows of men all projected beyond the front of the formation, so that there were more spearpoints than available targets at any given time. The men of the rear ranks raised their sarissas so as to provide protection from aerial missiles. A phalangite also carried a sword as a secondary weapon for close quarter fighting should the phalanx disintegrate. The phalanx, however, was extremely vulnerable in the flanks and rear.[42]\nThe phalangite was equipped with a shield, often called the 'Telamon shield', which was smaller and less deeply convex than the aspis shield employed by Greek hoplites (and probably the hypaspists). The extent to which phalangites were armoured is unclear, and may have changed over time. They were equipped with helmets and greaves, but do not appear to have worn the thorax at the time of Philip II, as this armour is not mentioned as forming part of the necessary equipment for sarissa-armed infantry. The thorax is, however, shown being worn by an infantryman on the Alexander Sarcophagus, however, this figure is equipped with an 'aspis' shield and may depict a hypaspist, rather than a phalangite.[43] It is indicated in the Military Decree of Amphipolis that the phalangites wore the kotthybos, a form of defence of uncertain nature.[44][35]\nAlexander did not use the phalanx as the decisive arm in his battles, but instead used it to pin and demoralize the enemy while his heavy cavalry would charge selected opponents or exposed enemy unit flanks, most usually after driving the enemy horse from the field.[45] Polybius (18.31.5), emphasises that the phalanx required flat open places for its effective deployment, as broken country would hinder and break up its formation.[46]\nThe phalanx carried with it a fairly minimal baggage train, with only one servant for every ten men. This gave it a marching speed that contemporary armies could not hope to match \u2014 on occasion forces surrendered to Alexander simply because they were not expecting him to show up for several more days. This was made possible thanks to the training Philip instilled in his army, which included regular forced marches.[47]\nAncient depiction of a Macedonian infantryman (right). He is equipped with a hoplon (Argive) shield, so probably is a Hypaspist. He also wears a linothorax cuirass and a Thracian helmet. Alexander Sarcophagus.\nHypaspistsEdit\nThe Hypaspists (Hypaspistai) were the elite arm of the Macedonian infantry. The word 'hypaspists' translates into English as 'shield-bearers'. During a pitched battle, such as Gaugamela, they acted as guard for the right flank of the phalanx and as a flexible link between the phalanx and the Companion cavalry. They were used for a variety of irregular missions by Alexander, often in conjunction with the Agrianians (elite skirmishers), the Companions and select units of phalangites. They were prominent in accounts of Alexander's siege assaults in close proximity to Alexander himself. The Hypaspists were of privileged Macedonian blood and their senior chiliarchy (\u03c7\u03b9\u03bb\u03b9\u03b1\u03c1\u03c7\u03af\u03b1) formed the Agema[48] foot bodyguard of Alexander III.[49][50]\nThe organisation of the hypaspist regiment seems to have been into units of 500 (pentakosiarchies) before 331 and later, by 327, it was divided into three battalions (chiliarchies) of 1,000 men, which were then further sub-divided in a manner similar to the Foot Companions. Each battalion would be commanded by a chiliarch, with the regiment as a whole under the command of an archihypaspist.[51]\nIn terms of weaponry, they were probably equipped in the style of a traditional Greek hoplite with a thrusting spear or doru (shorter and less unwieldy than the sarissa) and a large round shield (hoplon).[52] As well as this, they would have carried a sword, either a xiphos or a kopis. This would have made them far better suited to engagements where formations and cohesion had broken down, making them well suited to siege assaults and special missions. Their armour appears to have varied depending on the type of mission they were conducting. When taking part in rapid forced marches or combat in broken terrain, so common in the eastern Persian Empire, it appears that they wore little more than a helmet and a cloak (exomis) so as to enhance their stamina and mobility. However, when engaging in heavy hand-to-hand fighting, for instance during a siege or pitched battle, they would have worn body armour of either linen or bronze. This variety of armaments made them an extremely versatile force. Their numbers were kept at full strength, despite casualties, by continual replenishment through the transfer of veteran soldiers chosen from the phalanx.[53]\nA new term for hypaspistai emerged after the Battle of Gaugamela in 331 BC: the argyraspides ('silver shields').[54] The latter continued to serve after the reign of Alexander the Great and may have been of Asian origin.[55] However, in regards to both the argyraspides and chalkaspides ('bronze shields'), Malcolm Errington asserts that \"these titles were probably not functional, perhaps not even official.\"[56] Sekunda states that Alexander's pike-wielding infantry numbered some 12,000 men, 3,000 of which were elite hypaspistai and 9,000 of which were pezhetairoi.[57] However, in discussing the discrepancies among ancient historians about the size of Alexander the Great's army, N.G.L. Hammond and F.W. Walbank choose Diodorus Siculus' figure of 32,000 infantry as the most reliable, while disagreeing with his figure for cavalry at 4,500, asserting it was closer to 5,100 horsemen.[58]\nGreek hoplitesEdit\nAn ancient fresco of Macedonian soldiers from the tomb of Agios Athanasios, Thessaloniki, Greece, 4th century BC\nThe army led by Alexander the Great into the Persian Empire included Greek heavy infantry in the form of allied contingents provided by the League of Corinth and hired mercenaries. These infantrymen would have been equipped as hoplites with the traditional hoplite panoply consisting of a thrusting spear (doru), bronze-faced hoplon shield and body armour. In appearance, they would have been almost identical to the hypaspists. In battle, the Greek hoplites had a less active role than the Macedonian phalangites and hypaspists. At Gaugamela, the Greek infantry formed the defensive rear of the box formation Alexander arranged his army into, while the Macedonians formed its front face.[59] Nevertheless, they performed a valuable function in facing down attempts by the Persian cavalry to surround the Macedonian army and helped deal with the breakthrough of some Persian horsemen who went on to attack the baggage.[60]\nLight infantryEdit\nPeltastsEdit\nAgrianian peltast - modern reconstruction by Johnny Shumate\nThe peltasts raised from the Agrianes, a Paeonian tribe, were the elite light infantry of the Macedonian army. They were often used to cover the right flank of the army in battle, being posted to the right of the Companion cavalry, a position of considerable honour. They were almost invariably part of any force on detached duty, especially missions requiring speed of movement.[61] Other nationalities also provided peltasts for the Macedonian army. Especially numerous were the Thracians; the Thracian peltasts performed the same function in battle as the Agrianians, but for the left wing of the army. It is unclear if the Thracians, Paeonians, and Illyrians fighting as javelin throwers, slingers, and archers serving in Macedonian armies from the reign of Philip II onward were conscripted as allies via a treaty or were simply hired mercenaries.[62]\nPeltasts were armed with a number of javelins and a sword, carried a light shield but wore no armour, though they sometimes had helmets; they were adept at skirmishing and were often used to guard the flanks of more heavily equipped infantry. They usually adopted an open order when facing enemy heavy infantry. They could throw their javelins at will at the enemy and, unencumbered by armour or heavy shields, easily evade any counter-charges made by heavily equipped hoplites. They were, however, quite vulnerable to shock-capable cavalry and often operated to particular advantage on broken ground where cavalry was useless and heavy infantry found it difficult to maintain formation.[63][64]\nArchersEdit\nSee also: Cretan archer\nPhilip II was also able to field archers, including mercenary Cretan archers and perhaps some native Macedonians.[65] In most Greek states, archery was not greatly esteemed, nor practised by native soldiery, and foreign archers were often employed, such as the Scythians prominent in Athenian employ. However, Crete was notable for its very effective archers, whose services as mercenaries were in great demand throughout the Greek World. Cretan archers were famed for their powerful bows, firing arrows with large, heavy heads of cast bronze. They carried their arrows in a quiver with a protective flap over its opening. Cretan archers were unusual in carrying a shield, which was relatively small and faced in bronze. The carrying of shields indicates that the Cretans also had some ability in hand-to-hand fighting, an additional factor in their popularity as mercenaries.[66] Archers were also raised from Macedonia and various Balkan peoples. Alexander inherited the use of Cretan archers from his father's reign, yet around this time a clear reference to the use of native Macedonian archers was made.[67] After the Battle of Gaugamela, archers of West Asian backgrounds became commonplace and were organized into chiliarchies.[67]\nThe use of Oriental soldiers under Alexander the GreatEdit\nAccording to Arrian, Alexander used Arachosian, Bactrian, Parapamisadaean, Sogdian, Indian, and Scythian troops. They were present at the grand army revue Alexander assembled in 324 BC. Alexander was said to have been impressed by the drill of the 30,000 Persians who had been trained in the methods of the Macedonian phalanx.[68] The army supposedly reached 120,000 front-line troops at one point. This did not include camp followers. There has been considerable debate as to when Alexander first used Orientals on active service with the army.[69] During his campaign in Asia against the Persian Empire he formed a hipparchia (i.e. unit of a few hundred horsemen) of companion cavalry composed entirely of ethnic Persians.[70] The introduction of orientals into the army was actively resented by many of the native Macedonians, especially when the cadre of young Persians from aristocratic families was trained in Macedonian fighting techniques and enrolled in the companion cavalry.[71] Alexander's reaction was to make plans to rule Asia with a locally recruited army, but his death intervened before he could carry out this plan. His successors reversed his aim of diversifying the army and recruited Greeks and Macedonians almost exclusively.[72]\nArms and armourEdit\nAn image depicting an ancient Macedonian shield displaying the 'Vergina Sun', a royal symbol\nPhilip II's heavy infantry were equipped with peltai shields (peltai used here to describe a proto-'Telamon shield', not the light wicker and leather shields used by peltasts) that already diverged from the hoplon style shield featured in sculpted artwork of a Katerini tomb, dated perhaps to the reign of Amyntas III of Macedon.[7] His early infantry were also equipped with protective helmets and greaves, as well as sarissa pikes, yet according to Sekunda they were eventually equipped with heavier armour such as cuirasses, since the Third Philippic of Demosthenes in 341 BC described them as hoplites instead of lighter peltasts.[73] As evidenced by the Alexander Sarcophagus, troops serving Alexander the Great were also armoured in the hoplite fashion.[74] However, Errington argues that breastplates were not worn by the phalanx pikemen of either Philip II or Philip V's reign periods (during which sufficient evidence exists).[44] Instead, he claims that breastplates were only worn by military officers, while pikemen wore the kotthybos along with their helmets and greaves, wielding a dagger as a secondary weapon along with their shields.[44]\nThere is a considerable body of evidence to suggest that the different classes of Macedonian soldier trained to use a variety of arms and equipment. Certainly, cavalry, including Alexander himself, fought on foot during sieges and assaults on fortified settlements, phalangites are described using javelins and some infantrymen were trained to ride horses. The deployment of differing types of armour and weapons was dependent solely on the requirements of a particular tactical situation.[75]\nThe hunter on the right is wielding a kopis cutting sword, the hunter on the left holds a scabbarded xiphos straight sword. Both types of sword were used by Macedonian cavalry and infantry. Lion Hunt mosaic from the Macedonian capital Pella, late 4th century BC.\nFresco of an ancient Macedonian soldier with a grounded spear. He wears 3 items of clothing, which, in combination, are considered typcal of Macedonians: The kausia cap, the Macedonian type of chlamys (cloak) and krepides (boots), from the tomb of Agios Athanasios, Thessaloniki, Greece.[76]\nMost troops would have carried a type of sword as a secondary weapon. The straight-bladed shortsword known as the xiphos (\u03be\u03af\u03c6\u03bf\u03c2) is depicted in works of art, and two types of single-edged cutting swords, the kopis and machaira, are shown in images and are mentioned in texts. An archaeological find of a well-preserved Macedonian xiphos revealed a sword with a blade length of 55 cm and a weight of 300g.[77] The cutting swords are particularly associated with cavalry use, especially by Xenophon, but representations would suggest that all three sword types were used by cavalry and infantry without obvious distinction.[78]\nEach Companion cavalryman was equipped with a 3-metre double-ended spear/lance with a cornel wood shaft called the xyston. The double spear points meant that, should the xyston break during a battle, the rider need only turn his weapon around to re-arm himself. The Thessalian and Greek cavalry would have been armed similarly to the Companions. The xyston was used to thrust either overarm or underarm with the elbow flexed.[79] This is usefully illustrated in the Alexander Mosaic, King Alexander is shown thrusting with his xyston underarm, whilst immediately behind him a cavalryman is employing the overarm thrust. There is no evidence that the Macedonian cavalry ever used a two-handed grip on their lances, as did later Sarmatian and Roman lancers.[80] The shaft of the xyston was tapered allowing the point of balance, and therefore the hand grip, to be approximately two thirds of the length of the spear away from the point.[81]\nThe armament of the Phalangites is described in the Military Decree of Amphipolis. It lists the fines imposed upon the soldiers who fail to maintain their armament or produce it upon demand. Offensive weapons were a pike (sarissa), and a short sword (machaira). The sarissa was over 6 m (18 ft) in length, with a counterweight and spiked end at the rear called a sauroter; it seems to have had an iron sleeve in the middle which may mean that it was in two pieces for the march with the sleeve joining the two sections before use. Like the xyston, the sarissa was greatly tapered towards the point. This, along with the sauroter, helped to make the point of balance as far towards the butt of the weapon as possible. It should be stressed that the archaeological discoveries show that the phalangites also used the two-edged sword (xiphos) as well as the traditional Greek hoplite spear (doru/\u03b4\u03cc\u03c1\u03c5), which was much shorter than the sarissa. The sources also indicate that the phalangites were on occasion armed with javelins. The sarissa would have been useless in siege warfare and other combat situations requiring a less cumbersome weapon.[82][83]\nHypaspists and allied and mercenary Greek heavy infantry were equipped as classic hoplites and would have employed the hoplite spear and a sword.[84]\nLight troops were provided by a number of subject and allied peoples. Various Balkan peoples, such as Agrianes, Paeonians and Thracians, provided either light infantry or cavalry or indeed both. Typical light infantry peltasts would be armed with a number of javelins. The individual javelin would have a throwing thong attached to the shaft at or near its point of balance. The thong was wound around the shaft and hooked over one or two fingers. The thong made the javelin spin in flight, which improved accuracy, and the extra leverage increased the range achievable.[85]\nFoot archers, notably mercenary Cretans, were also employed; Cretans were noted for the heavy, large-headed arrows they used. Light cavalry could use lighter types of lance, javelins and, in the case of Iranian horse archers, compact composite bows.[86]\nHelmetsEdit\nA simple conical helmet (pilos) of a type worn by some Macedonian infantrymen.\nA Thracian helmet. It lacks its cheek pieces.\nBoeotian bronze helmet, the front of the helmet is to the right\nVirtually all helmets in use in the Greek world of the period were constructed of bronze. One helmet prominent in contemporary images was in the form of a Phrygian cap, that is it had a high and forward-projecting apex, this type of helmet, also known as a \"Thracian helmet\", had a projecting peak above the eyes and usually had large cheek pieces which were often decorated with stylised beards in embossing. Late versions of the Chalcidian helmet were still in use; this helmet was a lightened form developed from the Corinthian helmet, it had a nasal protection and modest-sized cheek pieces. Other, more simple, helmets of the conical 'konos' or 'Pilos type', without cheek pieces, were also employed. These helmets were worn by the heavy infantry.[87]\nThe Thracian helmet was worn by Macedonian cavalry in King Philip's day, but his son Alexander is said to have preferred the open-faced Boeotian helmet for his cavalry, as recommended by Xenophon.[88] The royal burial in the Vergina Tomb contained a helmet which was a variation on the Thracian/Phrygian type, exceptionally made of iron, this would support its use by cavalry.[89] Additionally, a fresco depicting a Macedonian mounted lancer spearing an infantryman, from the Kinch Tomb, near Naousa, shows the cavalryman wearing a Thracian type helmet.[90] The Boeotian helmet, though it did not have cheek pieces, had a flaring rim which was folded into a complex shape offering considerable protection to the face. The Alexander Mosaic suggests that officers of the heavy cavalry had rank badges in the form of laurel wreaths (perhaps painted or constructed from metal foil) on their helmets.[91]\nThe Alexander Sarcophagus shows Alexander the Great wearing an elaborate helmet in the form of the lion scalp of Herakles. Alexander's cousin Pyrrhus of Epirus is described as wearing a helmet with cheek pieces in the shape of ram's heads. Many examples of helmets from the period have crest or plume-holders attached, so that a high degree of martial finery could be achieved by the wearing of imposing headpieces.[92]\nBody armourEdit\nHellenistic muscle cuirass and a helmet derived from the Thracian/Phrygian type, combined with elements of the Boeotian type\nAlexander the Great in battle. The king wears a composite cuirass which copies the shape of the linothorax. The shoulder elements and upper chest are of plate iron, whilst the waist is composed of scale armour for ease of movement. There are pteruges of leather or stiffened linen at the shoulders and hips. The king wears a xiphos sword. Detail of the Alexander Mosaic (A Roman copy of a Hellenistic painting).\nBody armour in the Macedonian army was derived from a repertiore found throughout the Greek-speaking world. The most common form of armour was the linothorax, which was a cuirass of stiff linen built up of glued or stitched layers of textile; though it is possible that linen was used as a facing material over leather.[93] It was composed of the 'girdle' a tubular section, often of four vertical panels, that enclosed the torso. A shoulder-piece was attached to the upper rear section of the girdle, this element was split into two wings which were pulled forward over the top of each shoulder and laced to the chest-section of the girdle. Ancient representations show the shoulder pieces standing vertical when not laced down to the chest of the corselet. This suggests that the linothorax as a whole was very stiff and inflexible. Pteruges, strips of linen or leather, protected the upper arms and hips of the wearer. The linothorax could be reinforced with plate bronze or bronze scale elements. Defences of a similar appearance composed of quilted textile are also described.[94][95]\nLess common, due to its expense, was the muscle cuirass. This was a defence made entirely of plate bronze consisting of a breast and backplate, usually with shoulder pieces, modelled in relief on the form a muscular male torso. This was often given pteruges to extend the area of the body covered.[96]\nA complete cuirass of plate iron, decorated with gold and modelled on the form of the linothorax, was discovered in the Macedonian royal burial at Vergina. This, alongside the evidence of the depiction of Alexander the Great in the Alexander Mosaic, shows that the technology to make plate armour in iron existed at this time.[97] It is to be doubted that this type of armour was worn by persons other than of royal or very exalted rank.[98]\nAll of the above forms of armour could be described as thorakes (plural of thorax). Other forms of armour are mentioned in original sources, such as the kotthybos and a type of \"half-armour\" the hemithorakion (\u1f21\u03bc\u03b9\u03b8\u03c9\u03c1\u03ac\u03ba\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd); the precise nature of these defences is not known but it would be reasonable to conclude that they were lighter and perhaps afforded less protection than the thorax.[99] However, it has been suggested that when the terms kotthybos, hemithorakion and thorax occur together, as in the Amphipolis regulation, then thorax may refer specifically to the bronze muscle cuirass. Within the phalanx the thorax and hemithorakion were reserved for hegemones, the officers.[100] It has also been proposed that the kotthybos might refer to a form of linothorax. It is recorded that Alexander ordered the burning of old armours, which suggests that the armour in question was non-metallic.[101]\nArchaeological remains exist for only one type of limb armour: bronze greaves, which protected the lower leg. Greaves could be worn by both heavy infantry and heavy cavalry, but they are not in great evidence in contemporary depictions. However, greaves are mentioned in the Military Decree of Amphipolis and a pair of greaves, one shorter than the other, were found in the Vergina Tomb.[102]\nXenophon mentions a type of armour called \"the hand\" to protect the left, bridle, arm of heavy cavalrymen, though there is no supporting evidence for its widespread use. It may have resembled the later manica armour used by Roman gladiators and cataphract cavalry.[103]\nMacedonian shieldsEdit\nThe Macedonian phalangite shield, also termed the 'Telamon shield', was circular and displayed a slight convexity; its outer surface was faced by a thin bronze sheet. The inner face of the shield was of wood or a multilayered leather construction, with a band for the forearm fixed to the centre of the shield. Plutarch noted that the phalangites (phalanx soldiers) carried a small shield on their shoulder. This probably meant that, as both hands were needed to hold the sarissa, the shield was worn suspended by a shoulder strap and steadied by the left forearm passing through the armband. The left hand would project beyond the rim of the shield to grip the sarissa. Recent reconstructions of the sarissa and phalangite shield showed that the shoulder strap supporting the shield effectively helps to transfer some of the weight of the sarissa from the left arm to the shoulders when the sarissa is held horizontally in its fighting position. The Macedonian phalangite shield is described by Asclepiodotus (Tactica, 5) as being eight palms wide (equivalent to 62 cm or 24 inches) and \"not too hollow\".[104][105]\nThe lefthand figure shows the armband and grip on the inside of a hoplon or Argive shield - painted Corinthian krater c. 560BC.\nFrom pictorial sources, it is probable that the Hypaspists, elite members of the infantry, including the Agema of the King's personal foot guard, employed a shield of larger dimensions, the traditional Greek hoplite shield called the hoplon or aspis (\u1f00\u03c3\u03c0\u03af\u03c2), it is also referred to as the 'Argive shield'. This shield, also circular, was larger than the phalangite shield, it had sheet-bronze facing over a wooden base; it was held with the left forearm passing through a central armband with a hand-grip set just inside the rim. This shield was more much convex than the phalangite shield and had a projecting rim, both features precluding its use with a double handed pike. The style of shield used by cavalry, if any, is less clear; the heavy cavalry of Alexander's time did not employ shields.[106][107]\nLight infantry javelineers would have used a version of the pelte (Ancient Greek: \u03c0\u03ad\u03bb\u03c4\u03b7) shield, from whence their name, peltast, derived. This was a light shield made of leather-faced wicker. The shield was of Thracian origin and was originally crescent-shaped, however, by the time of Macedonian greatness many depictions of peltai show them as being oval or round.[108][109]\nSiege warfareEdit\nFurther information: Polyidus of Thessaly and Diades of Pella\nThe Macedonians had developed their siege tactics under Philip. They had for the first time conducted successful sieges against strongly held and fortified positions. This was a dramatic shift from earlier warfare, where Greek armies had lacked the ability to conduct an effective assault. For instance, during the Peloponnesian War, the Spartans were never able to take Athens despite easily conquering her surrounding territory. For the task of breaching the walled fortifications of cities, Philip II hired engineers such as Polyidus of Thessaly and Diades of Pella, who were capable of building state of the art siege engines and artillery firing large bolts.[110]\nThe dramatic change in the abilities of Greeks to operate against fortifications owed much to the development of effective artillery. This had begun around 400 BC in Syracuse under Dionysius I. By Alexander\u2019s time, torsion-powered artillery was in use. Torsion machines used skeins of sinew or hair rope, which were wound around a frame and twisted so as to power two bow arms; these could develop much greater force than earlier forms (such as the gastraphetes) reliant on the elastic properties of a bow-stave. Two forms of such ballista were used by the Macedonians: a smaller bolt-shooting type called the oxybeles and a larger stone-throwing machine called the lithobolos. The largest lithoboloi could fire stones up to 80 kg in weight. Such machines could shower the defenders of a city with missiles and create a breach in the walls themselves.[111]\nOther siege enginesEdit\nBattle tacticsEdit\nMacedonian battle formation.\nSee also: Ancient Macedonian battle tactics\nThe Macedonian army was one of the first military forces to use 'combined arms tactics', using a variety of specialised troops to fulfill specific battlefield roles in order to form a greater whole. Although it did not succeed in every battle, the army of Philip II was able to successfully adopt the military tactics of its enemies, such as the embolon (i.e. 'flying wedge') formation of the Scythians.[110] This offered cavalry far greater manoeuvrability and an edge in battle that previously did not exist in the Classical Greek world.[110]\nThe tactics used by the Macedonian army throughout the various campaigns it fought were, of course, varied; usually in response to the nature of the enemy forces and their dispositions, and to the physical nature of the battlefield . However, there were a number of features of the tactics employed by the Macedonians in pitched battles which can be identified as being typical. These features were evident in the first major battle the army, newly trained up by Philip, fought in 358 BC and could still be discerned at Gaugamela in 331 BC.[114]\nThe battle fought in 358 BC near Lake Ohrid was intended to free Macedon of the threat from Illyria and recover some western areas of Macedon from Illyrian control. The Illyrians, led by King Bardylis, were at a similar strength to the Macedonians at about 10-11 thousands. Philip had 600 cavalry, the Illyrians were concerned about being outflanked by the Macedonian cavalry and formed up in a hollow square. Philip massed his cavalry on his right flank and arranged his army in echelon, with the left refused. As had been anticipated, the Illyrians stretched their formation in order to bring the Macedonian left wing into action. Philip waited until the inevitable gap appeared in the left of the Illyrian square, then threw his cavalry at the gap. The cavalry forced their way into the Illyrian ranks and were followed by elements of the phalanx. The Illyrians broke after a fierce struggle, and three-quarters of Bardylis' army were slaughtered. The oblique advance with the left refused, the careful manoeuvring to create disruption in the enemy formation and the knock out charge of the strong right wing, spearheaded by the Companion cavalry, became standard Macedonian practice.[114]\nFurther information: Antigonid Macedonian army\nFollowing the fragmentation of the empire of Alexander, Macedon became an independent kingdom once again. The military forces of this successor state, the Antigonid Macedonian army, retained many features of the armies of Philip and Alexander. The Hellenistic armies of the other Macedonian successor-states of the Diadochi period, which followed the death of Alexander, also displayed a continuation of earlier Macedonian equipment, organisation and tactics. Towards the end of the period, however, there was a general decline in the use of the combined arms approach, and the phalanx once more became the arm of decision. The phalangites were armed with longer pikes and as a result the phalanx itself became less mobile and adaptable than it had been in Alexander's era.[115] Because all the competing Hellenistic armies were employing the same tactics, these weaknesses were not immediately apparent. However, the Hellenistic armies were eventually faced by forces from outside the successor kingdoms, such as the Roman and Parthian armies, composed of differing troop types using novel tactics. Against such foes the Hellenistic-era phalanx proved vulnerable. The phalanx finally met its end in the Ancient world when the more flexible Roman manipular tactics contributed to the defeat and partition of Macedon in the 3rd and 2nd centuries B.C.[116]\nMilitary Decree of Amphipolis\nList of Macedonian military personnel\nWars of Alexander the Great, (Battle of Granicus, Battle of Gaugamela, Battle of Hydaspes)\nBattle of Cynoscephalae\nAelianus Tacticus\n^ Connolly, pp. 64-70.\n^ Bury, p. 684.\n^ Sekunda 2010, p. 447; Errington 1990, pp. 243\u2013244\n^ Sekunda 2010, pp. 447\u2013448\n^ Sekunda 2010, pp. 448\u2013449; see also Errington 1990, pp. 238\u2013239 for further details.\n^ Errington 1990, pp. 238\u2013239; 243\u2013244\n^ a b Sekunda 2010, p. 449\n^ Errington 1990, pp. 239\u2013240\n^ Lendon, p. 129.\n^ Bury, pp. 685-687.\n^ Markle, pp.104-105\n^ Arrian I.2,, I.12,, II.9\n^ a b Connolly, p. 71.\n^ Ashley, pp. 30-31.\n^ Lendon, p. 98.\n^ Gaebel, pp. 162-164.\n^ Sidnell, p. 84\n^ Arrian, Book 6 Ch. 8\n^ Sidnell, pp. 96-98\n^ Connolly, p. 73.\n^ Ashley. p. 31.\n^ Lendon, pp. 98-101.\n^ a b c Ashley. p. 32.\n^ Ashley, 33-35\n^ a b c Gaebel, p. 178\n^ Sekunda 2010, p. 454\n^ Arrian, trans.

I can hear my mother yelling at me :) It's not like I'm so super busy during the day that I can't take a few minutes to post what we're up to. The weeks just get away from me and I forget. BUT, no more excuses. I've told myself that I'm going to try and blog at least 3 times next week. We'll see how that goes.\nThis is going to be a picture post, because that will pretty much show what we've been up to.\nFirst off, I've been busy in the front yard. This is a flower bed that is right in front of our house on both sides of the entryway. They had been neglected for a while, so last week I got out there and pulled all the weeds and planted flowers, and then put mulch over the top to help keep the weeds down. The mums were $1.49 at Home Depot. Can't beat that!!\nLast Saturday, we didn't have much on the calendar, so we went out to the barn to see what we could clean up. Well, we found a metal barrel and a bunch of wood that needed to be burned so we could make room for the sheep. There is still A LOT more to go, but we got a good start. The hubby was having fun!\nThis past Monday, I was really busy chopping weeds. See, I think our property is the only place where these lovely pole weeds grow. We have SO many of them. No matter how hard you try to keep up with them, they grow back 10 times as fast. But out front by our mail box was starting to look a little overgrown, so I got the shovel and started chopping. It took me a while, but it looks a lot better!\nAfter-so much better!\nOn Tuesday, Chris got off work a little early because he hurt his back over the weekend and had to make his first trip to the chiropractor. I've been begging him to do this for years, but a muscle spasm finally pushed him to go. Anyways, we got to take this sweet boy to a pick-your-own pumpkin, pumpkin patch and he had the greatest time! As he was carrying his pumpkin, he was saying \"I got my punkin patch\" So cute.\nTomorrow, I will have a surprise to show you. It's something I have been waiting a long time for and it has made this week draaaag on like no other. It's going to change our lives...just a little.\nAnd for those of you that know what it is...don't say it :)\nLinking up today to Farmchick's Farm Photo Friday. You should too!\nThat face is pure joy! It looks like you've been quite busy. I agree it's difficult finding time to blog right now. Fall is a very busy time of year.\nhow fun! love the photos. men are so stubborn. have a great week!",

        "raw_content": "Home Thinkpieces Seeing the Wood for the Trees\nSeeing the Wood for the Trees the creative industries and the reforms to the education system in England\nby Hasan Bakhshi\nDirector, Creative Industries in NESTA's Policy & Research Unit, visiting fellow at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Creative Industries and Innovation at the Queensland University of Technology and Honorary Visiting Professor at City University.\nIt is self-evident that all industries which are ideas- based, innovative and knowledge-intensive, including the creative industries, need creative people to thrive. Creativity is, of course, nurtured and stimulated in people in many ways, but the great institutions of education \u2013 our schools, colleges and universities \u2013 play an essential role, not least because young people spend so much of their waking hours in these institutions.\nArguably, the reforms set out in the government\u2019s schools and higher education White Papers and its response to Alison Wolf\u2019s review of vocational education amount to the most profound changes in generations to the talent pipeline feeding the creative industries. But there is a danger that industry is focusing its efforts on lobbying for what it can most easily influence, rather than what is most important.\nTake apprenticeships. While it is important, of course, that the creative industries take advantage of the available additional funding for apprenticeships, this must not substitute for fundamental debate on what the education reforms mean for the creative industries: on the failure to address the demise of creative computing from English education up to key stage 4, or on the structure of the new English Baccalaureate which, unlike its international counterpart, completely ignores art. Why has it fallen to Eric Schmidt, the American executive chairman of the US giant Google, to remind us of the damage that English education does to the creative industries by forcing students to specialise prematurely in either science or the arts?\nWe urgently need a wide-ranging debate on how the creative industries can work with schools, colleges and universities to address these problems but, with one or two noticeable exceptions, UK industry leaders have been silent on these issues.\nA need for new coalitions\nAt a time when there are major concerns that the way government is approaching mathematics and physics may be at the expense of creative education, the creative industries need to think of themselves less as passive recipients for talent and more as active agents in developing creativity in young people. The creative industries must play their part in addressing longstanding shortfalls in English education and in making more sophisticated, evidence-based recommendations for education policy.\nOf course, this may seem a very big ask for industries made up of busy (largely small) creative businesses, many of which already devote significant time to schools through participating in open days, giving guest lectures and sponsoring school competitions. In our research for Ian Livingstone and Alex Hope\u2019s Next Gen skills review of the video games and visual effects industries, we found that a surprisingly high 46% of video games businesses claimed to have \u2018engaged\u2019 with schools, and that a big reason why they did not do more was because of time pressures. In this context, it is worth remembering that the video games and visual effects industries make their impressive contributions to the UK\u2019s economic growth with a workforce of perhaps no more than 15-16,000 people between them. Industries as small \u2013 and as fragmented \u2013 as these need to think hard about how they can more effectively engage with an English education system in a way that is sensitive to the commercial pressures on their time.\nThe evidence certainly supports the view that more effective engagement is needed. In the case of video games and visual effects, we uncovered extraordinarily high levels of ignorance persisting in schools about the needs of these industries and the UK\u2019s world-leading position in them. Only 3% of young people, for example, recognised that physics was one of the most important subjects for video games employers. School teachers were no better informed, with only 2% recognising the importance of physics and 7% computer science (against 44% who mistakenly singled out ICT).\nFor sure, part of the solution lies in building stronger alliances between different creative sub-sectors. It is ironic that industries which depend so much on creative collaborations (and the trade bodies which represent them) struggle to break out of their silos and develop joint engagement strategies and policy positions even on issues where there is a great deal of common interest. The education system is surely one such area and there is a very good opportunity to address this in the new Creative Industries Council.\nBut an important part of the solution lies in the creative industries building broader-based coalitions: in identifying other interests, sectors and agencies outside of the creative sector that also need our education institutions to foster creativity; to use the networks of these other groups to engage directly with schools, colleges, universities and talent; and to work with them to develop robust and evidence-based lines on education policy which, as a result, are more likely to reach the ears of policymakers.\nThis is, perhaps, one of the biggest lessons we learned during the Livingstone- Hope skills review, where undoubtedly our strongest recommendations for educators, policymakers and industries were developed with bodies and learned societies as wide and varying as the British Computer Society, Institute of Physics, STEMNet and Teach First.\nThe Institute of Physics boasts 75% of physics teachers among its affiliates and around 3,000 young people participate in its Youth Membership Scheme: what better way for the visual effects industry with its 5,000-odd workforce to engage with the 25,000 or so schools in England than to partner with them?",

Rauner signed the $38.5 billion spending plan for Fiscal Year 2019 into law on June 4, and while Senate Republican lawmakers said they recognize that the new state budget is not perfect, they emphasized the compromise will ensure vital state services remain funded, including health coverage for children and senior citizens, as well as other priorities that save lives and protect the public.\nRepublican legislators emphasized that more than $1 billion in spending was cut from the \u201cauto-pilot\u201d expenditures that would have resulted without the changes made to current law. With their input, what would have amounted to more than $500 million in annual spending was eliminated or reduced.\nNotably, the budget adds an additional $350 million for the new K-12 education evidence-based funding formula, directing critical financial support to schools across Illinois and reducing reliance on local property taxes.\nAdditionally, high priority was placed on directing support to Illinois\u2019 colleges and universities. A two percent across-the-board increase for higher education operations will help reduce pressure to raise tuition, and the new merit-based scholarship program AIM HIGH will receive $25 million from the state and a matching $25 million from universities to help retain Illinois students. This budget also funds at FY 2018 levels the important Monetary Award Program (MAP), which provides funding for low-income college students.\nIt\u2019s also important to note that the budget includes capital appropriations for road, bridge and infrastructure projects. Illinois is at the crossroads of America, and Senate GOP lawmakers said improving and maintaining Illinois\u2019 transportation infrastructure is particularly important to creating jobs, helping employers and guaranteeing safer roadways and bridges.\nBudget includes $53 million investment for the Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy\nImportantly, the newly-signed budget authorizes $53 million in startup funding to make repairs to the Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy, including making improvements to the water filtration system, and also beginning construction on a new facility.\nAdditionally, some of the revenue will go to purchase and renovate the Sycamore Healthcare building, which will temporarily house veterans until the reconstruction of the Illinois Veterans Home is complete. The state will wrap-up the purchase of the former Sycamore Healthcare building on June 8, with renovations beginning immediately, according to the Governor.\nSupporters underscored the temporary housing is an important first step to ensure the residents at the Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy receive the best care possible, saying the funding brings the state one step closer to creating the state-of-the-art facility that the veterans deserve.\nDuring his appearance in Quincy on June 5, the Governor also introduced Brig. Gen. Stephen Curda as the new director of the Illinois Department of Veterans\u2019 Affairs.",

No, I won\u2019t be going to Rocky Mountain National Park or Pikes Peak ever and I had to be careful about the areas I spent much time in when I visited Yellowstone. I\u2019m glad to see that I am not the only one since I have had people roll their eyes when I refuse to visit places above my limit. It\u2019s really no different than people being more comfortable in temps and humidity similar to where they have lived a long time except I get nauseous and a headache when I go too high for too long. This can actually be dangerous and deadly. All RVers should be aware of the symptoms and what to do.

        "raw_content": "\u201cAs an Australian social scientist was told by a Temne tribesman in Sierra Leone: \u201cWhen Temne people choose a thing, we must all agree with the decision\u2014that is what we call cooperation..\u201d This is, of course, what we [modern citizens] call conformity. The reason for the crushing conformity required of the pre-industrial man, the reason the Temne tribesman has to \u201cgo along\u201d with his fellows, is precisely that he has nowhere else to go. His society is monolithic, not yet broken into a liberating multiplicity of components. It is what sociologists call \u201cundifferentiated. . . . . With this context [of rapid value change], however, a second powerful trend is unfolding. For the fragmentation of societies brings with it a diversification of values. We are witnessing the crack-up of consensus.\u201d\nThese Toffler quotes suggest two interesting features of humanity. First, consensus is part of human nature, for without this nature, aboriginal societies could never have survived to become modern societies. Second, as our societies become more complex, we lose more of our ability to attain that consensus.\nAs our instincts yearn for a more consensual decision-making, we increasingly hear this word bandied about in our contemporary society: \u201cconsultation.\u201d This word is frequently used by politicians, political pundits, and leaders of corporations and public institutions. They make it sound so easy\u2014as if they only have to say \u201cconsultation\u201d to bring it into practice.\nYet most citizens subordinate to the more powerful people do not think they are living in a consultative world. Instead they readily identify themselves with the hapless office worker of the Dilbert cartoon strip, where Dilbert earns his pay by being continually hindered, subverted, and disabled by managers, co-workers, silly bureaucratic policies, and empty platitudes. Dilbert, like many other citizens, accepts that his job epitomizes life in general and makes little effort to change his environment, either by being a more positive influence on the people around him or by leaving his job for a better one because all jobs are just like his current job.\nSo why are we even bothering with \u201cconsultation\u201d when we think we live in a Dilbert-like society and when Mr. Toffler's quote suggests that a modern society is unlikely to attain consensus? Why not just admit that those in power can make the decisions\u2014good or bad\u2014and those of us not in powerful positions are there only to carry out orders or live with the consequences? To many of us, the word \u201cconsultation\u201d is only another empty platitude espoused by the powerful to make us feel included.\nThe next part of this chapter describes three decision-making models that I have conjectured\u2014power, democratic, and consultative.consenus building, negotiation, conflict resolution, win-win agreement, international treaty, internationtal treaties, community building, mediation, mediator, volunteer, volunteers, volunteer organization, volunteer board, community association, community assistance, community program, community programs",

        "raw_content": "In this Feb. 1, 2017, file photo, the Supreme Court is seen in the morning in Washington. The Supreme Court has so far had little to say about Donald Trump\u2019s time as president. That\u2019s about to change. The justices\u2019 first deep dive into a Trump administration policy comes in a dispute over the administration\u2019s ban on travel from some countries with majority Muslim populations. (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana, File)\nWASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Supreme Court has so far had little to say about Donald Trump\u2019s time as president, even as the nation has moved from one Trump controversy to another. That\u2019s about to change.\nThe justices\u2019 first deep dive into a Trump administration policy comes in a dispute over the third and latest version of the administration\u2019s ban on travel from some countries with majority Muslim populations. Opponents of the policy and some lower courts have labeled it a \u201cMuslim ban,\u201d harking back to Trump\u2019s campaign call to keep Muslims from entering the country.\nThe high-stakes arguments at the high court on Wednesday (April 25) could offer some indication about how a court that runs on respect for traditions and precedent will deal with a president who regularly breaks with convention.\nApart from the campaign statements, Trump\u2019s presidential tweets about the travel ban and last fall\u2019s retweets of inflammatory videos that stoked anti-Islam sentiment all could feature in the court\u2019s discussion of the travel ban\u2019s legality.\n\u201cThe court could get to the right outcome without getting into the question of his tweets. But I think the president set it up so that it\u2019s virtually impossible to ignore him when he\u2019s shouting from the rooftops about what his purpose was in the three versions of the ban,\u201d said Cecillia Wang, the American Civil Liberties Union\u2019s deputy legal director.\nSolicitor General Noel Francisco, who will argue the administration\u2019s case, said in a court filing that the ban is well within the president\u2019s authority and is not based on prejudice against Islam.\nIn a sign of heightened public interest, the court is taking the rare step of making an audio recording of the proceedings available just hours after the arguments end.\nOne key issue will be how the court evaluates administration actions.\nNeil Eggleston, President Obama\u2019s last White House counsel, suggested in an online forum last week that Trump does not merit the same measure of latitude that courts usually give presidents, especially in the areas of national security and immigration.\n\u201cThe court will have to wrestle with how much to defer to a President who has created this record of chaos and animus,\u201d Eggleston and co-author Amanda Elbogen wrote on justsecurity.org.\nJosh Blackman, a professor at the South Texas College of Law in Houston, cautioned that the court would be breaking new ground if it were to treat Trump differently from other presidents.\nThe policy under review at the court applies to travelers from five countries with overwhelmingly Muslim populations \u2014 Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. It also affects two non-Muslim countries: blocking travelers from North Korea and some Venezuelan government officials and their families. A sixth majority Muslim country, Chad, was removed from the list this month after improving \u201cits identity-management and information sharing practices,\u201d Trump said in a proclamation.\nFrancisco said the Chad decision shows that the restrictions are premised only on national security concerns. He also said the State Department has cleared more than 430 visa applicants from the affected countries for waivers that would allow them to enter the U.S.\nBut the challengers argue that the administration cannot ask the court to ignore all that has happened.\nTrump\u2019s first travel ban was issued just a week after he took office in January 2017, and was aimed at seven countries. It triggered chaos and protests across the U.S. as travelers were stopped from boarding international flights and detained at airports for hours. Trump tweaked the order after the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco refused to reinstate the ban.\nThe next version, announced in March 2017, dropped Iraq from the list of covered countries and made it clear the 90-day ban covering Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen didn\u2019t apply to those travelers who already had visas. It also eliminated language that would give priority to religious minorities. Critics said the changes didn\u2019t erase the ban\u2019s legal problems.\nThe 9th Circuit and the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Va., agreed with the ban\u2019s opponents. The 4th Circuit said the ban \u201cdrips with religious intolerance, animus and discrimination.\u201d The 9th Circuit ruled that Trump violated immigration law.\nThe third version is indefinite, unlike the other two, and the administration said it is the product of a thorough review of how other countries screen their own citizens and share information with the U.S.\nIt fared no better than its predecessors in the lower courts, but the Supreme Court said in an unsigned order in December that it could take full effect while the legal dispute continues. The justices said nothing about the substance of the policy, either in December or in earlier actions involving the ban.\nNow, though, they are confronted with the administration\u2019s view that Trump has broad discretion to impose limits on immigration and that the courts don\u2019t even have a role to play. The Justice Department has said throughout the course of the legal fight that the lawsuits challenging the policy should be dismissed without ever reaching the challengers\u2019 claims. The administration says foreigners have no right to enter the United States and no right to challenge their exclusion in American courts.\nSupporting briefs for the ban\u2019s challengers dwarf filings on the administration\u2019s side. Retired high-ranking military officers, former Republican officeholders, Catholic bishops, Amazon, Facebook and 113 other companies, the children of Japanese-Americans who were held in internment camps during World War II and more than a dozen mainly Democratic-led states are among those calling on the court to strike down the Trump policy.\nThe administration\u2019s supporters include roughly the same number of Republican-led states, as well as conservative groups and Jay Sekulow, one of Trump\u2019s personal lawyers.\nA decision in Trump v. Hawaii, 17-965, is expected by late June.\nTagsDonald Trump Muslim ban SCOTUS Supreme Court travel ban\nFather: Sick UK child surviving after life support withdrawn",

        "raw_content": "On Tuesday morning, I woke up with a big smile on my face. I thought to myself, \"we're going to make history today!\"\nAfter voting, Paul and I went out to brunch, and we talked about how much we'll miss Obama, but so excited about our first woman president.\nLittle did we realize HOW MUCH we really are going to miss President Obama.\nThe unthinkable happened,\nI have been oscillating between anger and feeling despair since Tuesday evening. I cannot stop crying. I never thought an election would make me so emotional. Even back when George W Bush was elected I was pissed off but I never cried.\nI realized I live in a country where half of the people may not see or want me as equal. I realized half of the people can overlook or condone bigotry and hatred and voted for someone who has built his campaign based on hatred towards people like me.\nNow, I am not OK with the talk of moving forward, working together. The pain is too raw.\nI can't, because I can't change who I am, a minority immigrant woman. I can't come to terms with knowing many of my neighbor, my coworkers, my students voted for bigotry.\nOn Wednesday, I got few emails from colleagues about work. They continued with their normal life while I felt like the world is falling apart. I dragged myself to work. I had to nod my head while they're excited about getting new computers for the classrooms. I was so numb. Students chatted, joked, though no one talked about politics, but no one acted like things were out of ordinary. A Bernie Bro student said, \"you must be upset.\" I wanted to scream at him \"FUCK YOU!\" but I just ignored him and walked away.\nNo, I don't want to hear why half of the country voted the way they did. Good for them that they can feel safe in a country that is taking a huge step backward in time when minorities, women, and LGBTQ were not treated as equal. But we don't, we don't feel safe, so I don't care, not now, why they voted the man who spew all kinds of hate into power.\nNo, I don't want to hear about how Bernie or others could win. Don't tell me shattering the glass ceiling is secondary. It upsets me to hear that the only way to fight sexism is with an old white man.\nI can't stop feeling very emotional.\nOne thing I can do is:\nI will be donating 60% of pattern sales from November 2016 to Planned Parenthood.\nThis is the place where I got my first annual check up in my early 20s, also the first place I got my birth control pills for free.\nI was thinking about you this morning, and of our shared despair. We must remember that half the population did not vote for him. Only about 1/4. More people that bothered to vote, voted for Hillary. It's cold comfort, but I am trying to hold on to that thought. I keep hoping for some sort of miracle. Like you, I'll be sending money to places that are going to need it. xo\nCaroline aka FiberTribe November 13, 2016 at 4:08 PM\nWhat Virginia said. And thank you for speaking out about this. We do NOT have to reconcile, build a bridge, or in any way support this fascist expletive. I am beyond distressed by the \"crickets\" silence in most of the knitting world with you, the Harlot, and a smattering of others being the exceptions. Thank you also for sharing your hard-earned funds with Planned Parenthood. Even though we don't \"know\" each other, please know that I have your back in any way I can. I am a child of immigrants, first generation on one side and 2nd on the other. We belong here and let no one tell us differently. Much love to you and Paul.\nI could have written this exact post. As a liberal democrat living in a conservative republican state, I am well-acquainted with being disappointed after an elections, but this goes beyond anything I have ever before felt. I am honestly TERRIFIED about what it means that so many people voted for Trump but also TERRIFIED about what it will mean when he's President. Also, at this point, the data shows that Hillary has won the popular vote by over one million votes. I know it's a long shot, but I'm hoping that there will be some rogue electors who will do the right thing. And that the electoral college will be abolished.\nCraveCute December 1, 2016 at 11:46 AM\nJust found your blog, and it's been almost a month, but I'm still in shock over how the election turned out. Years ago as part of my college credit, I did volunteer work for Planned Parenthood. They were fabulous to their clients and took care of the women who had no health insurance and very little money. That was almost 30 years ago! I can't believe that our country has come to this.\nToday I discovered your gorgeous patterns and intend to make as many as I can. Thank you for your contribution to the world and this blog. My mantra over the next four years: We must keep the lights on for one another.",

        "raw_content": "Master Your Money Recap\nPublished by Rachel Gause at April 30, 2015\nIn the beginning, I understood personal finances to mean paying your bills on time and ensuring there was enough money in the account to cover checks.\nLeaving home at seventeen to enlist in the Marine Corps set me up to receive money on the 1st and the 15th of every month. Early in my career, I obtained my first credit card. It was the AAFES STAR card with a 0% interest rate that could only be used for uniform clothing.\nOver the next ten years, I applied for and received multiple loans (auto, consolidation, and personal) and had several credit cards. I remember thinking to myself, if they approved me for it, then it must be good.\nMy Relationship With Money\nIn the credit card industry, I was considered a \u201crevolver\u201d. I only paid the minimum balance each month. Credit card companies LOVE revolvers and they dislike \u201cdeadbeats\u201d. Deadbeats pay their credit card balances in full each month.\nI justified my credit card purchases by saying, \u201cI\u2019ll pay it off when I get paid again\u201d, but that rarely happened. My balances continued to increase.\nOne car never satisfied me for too long. Once, I went to the Toyota service department in Stafford, Virginia to get an oil change on my Toyota Corolla. Mind you, I bought the car less than a year earlier. Instead of staying in the waiting area, I decided to take my three kids and walk the lot just to look.\nI left that dealership in a Toyota Camry. The salesman convinced me that the kids needed more room. Ugghh!!!!\nI Needed Help And A Fresh Start\nI was in an counterproductive payment cycle and knew something needed to change. In July 2006, I started a financial journal. That was my saving grace. I started tracking my disposable income.\nI even continued to journal while on deployment in Afghanistan.\nIn addition to journaling, I began to focus on studying the Bible and applying what I learned. I was contributing to my retirement using the Thrift Savings Plan, but I really didn\u2019t understand the different funds.\nMy journal entries contained which bills needed to be paid on each paycheck. I was also tracking my debt-to-income ratio. I started putting money into savings, but there was still something missing. I was financially illiterate and I didn\u2019t have anyone to turn to.\nIn 2010, my unit Chaplain began offering Dave Ramsey\u2019s Financial Peace University during lunch on Tuesdays and Thursdays for five weeks. The course material was free.\nThis course was an eye opener. I was not familiar with Dave Ramsey but I knew it dealt with financial peace so I had to check it out. I brought my lunch throughout the course, listened to the presentations, and cut up several credit cards.\nDave Ramsey\u2019s baby steps were what I was missing.\nPrior to the class, I was trying to do:\nbaby step 2 (debt snowball),\nbaby step 3 (fully funded emergency fund),\nbaby step 4 (save for retirement), and\nbaby step 5 (money aside for kids college)\nAfter following the baby steps in order, I started making progress.\nBy God\u2019s Grace, I Never Lost Hope\nFrom 2010 \u2013 2013, I deployed to Afghanistan for seven months and then took college courses for two years. My baby steps slowed to a crawl.\nAfter enrolling in Financial Peace University for a second time, I was determined more than ever to finish what I started. Surrounding myself with others who were on their journey kept me motivated and it was encouraging to see that I was not alone.\nYes, I was financially illiterate but I was determined to do something about it. I graduated with a Bachelors of Science degree in Business Administration with a concentration of finance in 2013 with no student loan debt. I completed Financial Peace University a second time in 2014.\nOn March 13, 2015, I paid off the last of $180,000 in consumer debt. I am now debt free!",

        "raw_content": "Only one sin is unpardonable: Resisting the Holy Ghost, rejecting Jesus!\nPeople do not have to go to Hell for sins and crimes committed in this life if they'll confess and repent of them and ask for Jesus' forgiveness. God's not so angry at the sinner for breaking the rules, since He knows the sinner is a sinner and can't keep the rules. But He is angry when they reject the free gift of His Love and Salvation. To have been shown the Love of God and resisted it, is the greatest sin. (Jn.3:19)\nAny sin, any crime can be forgiven by the Lord except one. The only unpardonable sin, the only sin the Lord won't forgive and can't forgive is when you reject His Love and His Salvation through the wooing Love of His Holy Spirit. Jesus Himself said this sin shall not be forgiven, neither in this World nor in the World to come! (Mat.12:31,32)\nThe Devil tempts people to resist the Lord, saying, \"Do as you please! You're the Captain of your soul, the master of your fate. Your head is bloody but unbowed!\" That's the horrible picture of the sinner in defiance of God! How much better the beautiful picture of the saint, the yielded sinner on his knees saying, \"Lord, be merciful unto me, a sinner!\" (Lk. 18:9-14)--Which are you?",

        "title": "Is there a Bible contradiction in Exodus 31:18?",
        "raw_content": "Problem: This verse says that the Ten Commandments were \u201cwritten with the finger of God.\u201d But, elsewhere the Bible insists that \u201cGod is spirit\u201d (John 4:24) and that spirits do not have \u201cflesh and bones\u201d (Luke 24:39). How, then, can God have fingers?\nSolution: God does not literally have fingers. The phrase \u201cfinger of God\u201d is a figure of speech indicating God\u2019s direct involvement in producing the Ten Commandments. It is called an anthropomorphism (speaking of God in human terms).\nThe Bible uses many figures of speech when referring to God, including \u201carm\u201d (Deut. 7:19), \u201cwings\u201d (Ps. 91:4), and \u201ceyes\u201d (Heb. 4:13). None of these should be taken literally, though all of them depict something that is literally true of God. For example, although God does not have literal arms, nonetheless, it is literally true that God can and does extend His strength to do great things that, were humans to do, it would require strong arms.",

        "raw_content": "nuestra palabra 2008: Gabriela Etcheverry\nGabriela Etcheverry won first prize in the nuestra palabra competition in 2008 with a story of the same name, \u201cNuestra palabra\u201d (translated as \u201cOur Words\u201d). She is a writer and literary critic who came to Canada in 1975 from her native Chile. She has published two short story collections: T\u00fa y yo (2008) and El \u00e1rbol del pan (2011); as well as the novel Latitudes (2009). Her stories have also appeared in the anthologies Retrato de una nube: primera antolog\u00eda del cuento hispano canadiense (2008); Las imposturas de Eros: cuentos de amor en la postmodernidad (2009), and in numerous literary journals. An English translation of her second short story collection was published under the title The Breadfruit Tree by Antares Publishing in 2013. She currently lives in Ottawa, where she is editor of the Spanish-language literary journal Qantati, and also the co-founder of the Red Cultural Hisp\u00e1nica (Hispanic Cultural Network), an organization dedicated to disseminating the work of Hispanic-Canadian writers.\nGabriela Etcheverry\nFacing the wall by the kitchen counter, with resolute strokes the woman slices into the long baguette she just brought home from the bakery. Her husband edges around her impatiently, searching his mind for words that will have the impact he wants. She too is racking her brain for words, words powerful enough to build a wall of flesh and iron between herself and the world. Into the breadbasket she puts the crusty end of the loaf that had so tempted her with its deep golden colour. Crunchy bread in her mouth, a sound she will forever associate with a din of insults, but she hasn\u2019t the energy now to dwell on that past life. Still, her mind wanders to the useless rhymes she learned from the half-crazed girl who had had a child by her father, especially the incantation for protection against men who wanted to harm her: \u201cWith these eyes I see you, with these eyes I tie your hands\u2026\u201d Slicing the bread has never taken her this long before, yet she wishes it could go on forever. Her hand caresses the warm loaf as if asking its forgiveness for the actions of the knife. Now her husband is closer to his chair. If only he would sit down at the table and perhaps look at her but\u2014damn it!\u2014not with those eyes. They could never pierce her skin and reach the damaged core of her being.\n\u201cWhat did you say?\u201d he demands.\nHis feverish eyes and the urgency in his voice show that he has asked the question more than once, and is still waiting for an answer. She continues slicing the bread as if oblivious to her surroundings until, finally, she says: \u201cI don\u2019t remember. Anyway, it doesn\u2019t matter\u2026\u201d She mustn\u2019t confess that she was talking to herself again. She\u2019s never sure where the truth, however simple, will land her. She checks her email every morning before going out to the bakery, and today she had learned of a short story contest called \u201cOur Words\u201d. Toying with the idea of unearthing and polishing some of her old writings, she had mumbled the phrase our words first to herself and then out loud, as if the spoken words would magically dispel her fear of rejection. Yet something tells her she is ready to take up the fight\u2014some rare ingredient must have got into the stew last night because she had gone to sleep repeating her mantra for peace and woke up chewing on the seed of rebellion.\nThings have been going badly between her and her husband for a long time, and both were exhausted after last night\u2019s outburst. She had remained awake for hours after he fell asleep, trying to bring some order to the images of people, places and events that were streaming through her mind. Still dazed, she relived that moment when she seemed to have left her body behind and could hear herself talking about separation.\n\u201cYou\u2019re so irrational\u2026\u201d had become her husband\u2019s habitual complaint. In his frustration with her, he also started to criticize her mother: \u201cI guess I shouldn\u2019t be surprised considering the mother you have\u2026\u201d\nAs far as she was concerned, he was quite right to blame her mother for making her into the person she was. Her mother had never lived with them and was a continent away, but she was indeed at the root of all that she valued in herself\u2014her compassion, her love of singing, her hunger for learning.\nLooking at her sleeping husband, no trace left of his ugly scowl, she wondered whether they hadn\u2019t just grown in opposite directions during their years of marriage, but she persuaded herself that this was not the case and immediately felt better. Together or separately they would end up walking along the same paths. The problem was within her, no doubt, but after a long detour she was at last approaching the road on which he had already set out. It was a simple incongruity of time, which she would try hard to correct. She couldn\u2019t forget the years when they had walked together, completely attuned in time and space, clearing the land where they would build a home for themselves and for all who sought their warmth: children or relatives, friends or pets. She resolved to talk to him about starting a family; after all, she was fast approaching thirty. If only they could go back to the early days when his gentle and attentive ways had almost made her forget the constant insults that her father had showered on her using any pretext whatsoever. He would send her to buy the bakery\u2019s most well-toasted bread and then be infuriated if she made the slightest sound eating the crust.\nShe surrendered at last to sleep, calmed by a vision of her mother\u2014a warm, smiling face, and an extended arm offering to help. The other image, that of her mother\u2019s uplifted arm ready to strike (to kill?), her face contorted in anger, only appeared much later when the woman\u2019s slumber was deep. The fusion of two heavenly bodies would be easier to accomplish than the integration of these contrasting images.\n\u201cYou were the one who talked about separation last night, not me, and now you come out with this business of our words.\u201d\n\u201cAh\u2026,\u201d she says, and then says it again, just to gain time. \u201cMaybe I was thinking about marriage vows,\u201d she lies, \u201cabout the words we say without really thinking about their meaning. Or expressions like \u2018word of honour,\u2019 \u2018keeping your word,\u2019 \u2018giving your word\u2019 and so on. The funniest one, I think, is \u2018breaking your word,\u2019\u201d she persists, heartened by his apparent calm.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s so funny about it?\u201d His voice is almost normal now, and this gives her hope that the storm is passing.\n\u201cHow can you \u2018break\u2019 a word? Words are like stones, my mother used to say. Once they\u2019re thrown\u2026\u201d And she rushes on, talking about her home and her mother as if her very life depended on telling the stories, not ceasing even when she realizes the huge mistake she has made. She has given him the very words that he\u2019ll be sure to use to express the wrath of the unforgiving gods against one who dares to rush blithely about, loath to inhabit the logical world of the only minds that matter.\nA small end of the loaf remains on the counter, and the woman holds on to that bit of bread like clinging to the mother she knows she will now have to defend. If she lets her go, if she lets that other image fill her head, she will be drained of all warmth and will sink down into the emptiness of death.\nThe accusing voice is nearer. She senses her husband standing just behind her, feels his breath on the nape of her neck. She knows he won\u2019t let up until she turns to face him and he can see by the hurt in her eyes that his words have touched a nerve. The words rain down: not the persistent drops that eventually bore into the rock, but the downpour that cloaks the eyes and darkens the way. She feels her wall of flesh and iron beginning to crumble and closes her eyes to concentrate on the mantra for peace that may save her or halt her gradual, dangerous advance down the road where his words are forcing her.\nShe finished slicing the loaf some time ago; the pieces sleep in the basket waiting to be called. With the counter pressing against her skin, the woman seems somehow insubstantial as she stares with empty eyes into the narrow space before her. She tosses one of the coveted pieces of crust into her mouth, and the inevitable fails to occur. For the first time there is no shower of abuse from her father evoked by the crunch of fresh bread between teeth. Instead, she finds her mother\u2019s all-powerful arm tearing down the wall, which after all was not of flesh and iron but built of charms, spells, and magic words.\nStill against the counter, the hail of words biting into her back, she holds in her hand, now empty of bread, the knife that gleams with all the strength of its irrationality.\nTranslated by Gabriela Etcheverry\nOne thought on \u201cnuestra palabra 2008: Gabriela Etcheverry\u201d\nPingback: La serie de nuestra palabra: una muestra de literatura hispanocanadiense - Di\u00e1logos",

        "title": "APCC Speech on Policing and Security",
        "raw_content": "APCC Speech on Policing and Security\nYou are here: Home / News / Speeches / APCC Speech on Policing and Security\nThank you ladies and gentlemen. It\u2019s a pleasure to be here.\nToday I want to address some very serious issues.\nYou meet at a time when police recorded crime is rising sharply. Serious violent crime is rising. But the rate of cautions and charges is falling.\nThere is a crisis in policing and there is a crisis in crime and policing. I am not one of those people who says nothing can change, that everything that is done now is perfect and nothing can be improved. There is always room for improvement, as develop and as we learn from each other and we learn from international experience.\nBut I also want to be absolutely clear. The crisis in policing and crime is not caused the fault of the police. This is a failure of policy, not a failure of policing.\nSecurity after Brexit\nOn top of all this, as I join you today when we are less than 5 months away from Brexit. I know you have concerns on this and that you debated this issue at length yesterday.\nI was recently in Brussels to discuss our policing, security and justice arrangements after March 29 next year. We have very little time left to agree and implement any new arrangements with the EU-27. When I spoke to the Commission and elected representatives and experts in Brussels, I really didn\u2019t get the impression that the Government has done the work on this that is needed. Frankly, I didn\u2019t even get the impression that Ministers are properly engaged. I should also say that not everything the Commission has said and done in this area is constructive or helpful.\nIt\u2019s easy to get caught up in the jargon and the endless acronyms and Directives. But the reality is that our current co-operative arrangements as a Member of the EU are vital to our mutual security and effective policing.\nBut our current arrangements provide everyday basic tools for effective policing in this country. We have real-time access to the Europol database which allows us to effectively monitor suspected terrorists, organised gangsters, people and drug traffickers and so on. But Europol is an EU institution. When we leave the EU, we will be outside it. Worse, there will be no legal basis to retain the data we have already accumulated. Unless new arrangements are in place, it will be illegal for our police forces to access or even retain this data.\nThis will damage our ability to mount effective policing. The practical consequences are dreadful. If there is not a new arrangement, we could find ourselves where every major criminal in the EU can evade justice by coming here. Likewise, our major criminals, home-grown terrorists or those on the run can try to evade our police and security agencies within the EU.\nThe same point applies in a different way to the use of the European Arrest Warrant. That falls away outside the EU, unless new arrangements are in place.\nTheresa May has told us that the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice must end. That this is a red line for her. But she hasn\u2019t told us what will replace it. Any warrant must have judicial oversight and a right of appeal. So, it is the duty of those who insist it must go to say what will replace it.\nIn the Labour Party, we are not wedded to institutions. Our focus is on outcomes. But Keir Starmer has made it abundantly clear that security and policing is a vital part of Brexit. Test FIVE of our SIX texts is: \u201c5. Does it protect national security and our capacity to tackle cross-border crime?.\"\nAnd, as the world should know, Jeremy Corbyn has made it abundantly clear that we will be voting down any Brexit deal that does not meet our SIX tests.\nAnd the reason we insist on these has nothing to do with political in-fighting, party management posturing to be next leader. We leave that to the Tories. Our SIX tests are based on what this country needs, on the vital interests of all the people of this country.\nAs a result, we will be voting down any deal which leaves our security and policing in a worse situation than before. Put simply, the Government\u2019s Hard Brexit and its lack of progress and security contains a real risk that this country could become a safe haven for the terrorists, the Mafiosi, the smugglers and the paedophiles on the run from the EU 27. And the European Union could become the safe haven for all the worst criminals, terrorists and others from this country.\nThis is not a prospect either this country or the EU should even contemplate. I would urge both sides to think again, negotiate properly and reach swift conclusions that can be in place before March 29 next year.\nWe will need an over-arching Security Treaty between the UK and the EU. We will need clear and vigorous data protection regimes on both sides. Data flow is vital. It is also vital that it is subject to the proper checks and restraints. We will also need further co-operation on judicial and policing issues. We will need continued and further co-operation on matters of social policy.\nAlongside Europol, we will need continuing participation agreements with Eurojust. We will need access to the Schengen Information System TWO, which is such an important database monitoring criminals and terror suspects. We will also need more recent shared resources including ECRIS, the European criminal records information system and PNR, the Passenger Name Record which are also highly beneficial for investigations.\nAll of this must be subject to mutually agreed and robust protections for citizen\u2019s privacy rights and the risks of an over-mighty state. Defending our freedoms from terrorists and criminals means defending all of our hard-won freedoms.\nJust the other day, Lynne Owens the head of the National Crime Agency warned the Home Affairs Select Committee about the dangers of a No Deal exit from the EU. She is right to be concerned. I can only add that, from what I can gather, we already look to heading for a No Deal Brexit on security and policing unless the negotiators on both sides change course dramatically. That must not happen.\nI say all this not as some EU obsessive. That is not my political history at all.\nI am extremely concerned that Government Ministers have taken their eye off the ball. This could have dreadful consequences for the effectiveness of our policing and therefore for us all.\nBut I am obsessive about what is required for effective policing, the co-operation we need to achieve that and the freedoms we need to defend. It\u2019s ordinary people, including the poorest, who are the main victims of crime. It\u2019s the most vulnerable, including disabled people. Women are much more likely to be the victims of crime. Serious offences against children are an abomination to any decent society. LGBT people are much more likely to be victims of crime. And so too are ethnic minority communities of all types.\nI believe there is good cause for this concern. Because we only have to see what is happening to policing and to crime to recognise that this Government is failing in the fight against crime.\nYou don\u2019t have to take my word for it. You only need to heed the words of your own police chief constables and others.\nThere is barely a police chief in the country who hasn\u2019t talked about the dreadful consequences of the cuts in their area. Or others who say they have to ration policing, and not respond to crimes at all. Or who say they are close to breaking-point. Or who have publicly said that they will not be able to cope at all with any further cuts to policing.\nSince 2010 this Government and its predecessors have axed TWENTY-ONE THOUSAND police officers. Thousands more so-called back office staff, really support staff have also gone. When the support staff go, the police officers themselves have to perform those duties.\nThe police are being told they must do more with less. Well, there comes a point when you can\u2019t.\nAnd anyone who\u2019s been listening to police chiefs, or the National Audit Office, or to the Home Affairs Select Committee, or to Her Majesty\u2019s Inspectorate knows we have gone past the point where the police can do more with less.\nThe NAO said that the Home Office had no coherent policing strategy and that it conducted no analysis on the effect of cuts. The Select Committee said that there has been a significant loss of community policing AND that without a change of course \u201cpolicing will struggle to attract the talented individuals that it relies on order to survive\u201d.\nThe police are forced to do less with less. And no sensible person believes this is sustainable.\nArrest rates and caution rates are falling. This is at a time when police recorded crime is rising.\nIn Monday\u2019s Budget the Chancellor only mentioned a rise in funding for Counter-Terrorism policing. This is welcome, but follows cuts made by the Coalition Government.\nAll of this at a time when the terror threat has been rising.\nBut there was nothing about all other types of policing. All that was promised was a review in December. There have been innumerable reviews, assessments and analyses. What the police need is more resources.\nThis Government has failed in a most basic duty. That is the duty to protect our citizens.\nThey have increased the causes of crime. These are homelessness and poor housing, social deprivation, poverty, school exclusion and any other social ills. The policy of austerity has made all of them worse.\nDespite all the fierce rhetoric and more legislation, they have not only failed to tackle the causes of crime. They have failed to tackle crime itself. Their record speaks for itself, and what it says is not at all welcome.\nThe Home Secretary told you yesterday that he wanted to increase stop and search. This is despite research which shows that random stop and search is ineffective. That research comes from the Home Office. What does work is intelligence-led stop and search, and I am in favour of it in those circumstances. Then, it is effective. Otherwise it is ineffective and poisons community relations.\nAt the last General Election in 2017, Labour pledged to increase policing by TEN THOUSAND officers. Along with the rest of our Manifesto, this was hugely popular. This is because policing and crime matter and they matter to ordinary voters.\nEach Manifesto starts as a blank piece of paper ahead of each election. But the Chancellor\u2019s Budget this week has provided a strange, one-year giveaway, timed for 2019. And will resume austerity later.\nSo we might be looking at a General Election in 2019 or early 2020. Whenever it comes Labour will be ready. And I have already staked my claim that we will repeat our pledge to increase police officer numbers by TEN THOUSAND. If there is any scope for change I will be arguing that this should only be in an upward direction.\nFor us policing, and fighting crime matters. You can\u2019t have safety and security on the cheap.\nThe cuts to policing have had terrible consequences for fighting crime. The Government cuts across the board have had terrible effects on the causes of crime. Labour will end the austerity policy. Labour will add police officers.\nI know as elected representatives you come from differing political parties and traditions. But I hope we can agree on this: This Government is failing in its efforts to provide the necessary security and policing arrangements after March 29 next year. This Government is failing to tackle crime.\nThis country deserves better. My pledge is that Labour in Government can and will do better",

This is an interview by phone with Susan Swift. And it's February 8, 2006. And Susan, what was your position with the Freedman administration?\n3140 SS: Manager of Development Coordination. And then I was the Deputy Director of what is now known as Business and Community Services I think.\n430 RK: They keep on reorganizing.\n554 SS: Right it was housing and, Housing and Development.\n6187 RK: OK. And the main focus is going to be the Freedman administration, but if you don't mind, can I just ask a little bit about your background, where you were born and where you grew up?\n7152 SS: I was born in New York, and grew up in Miami, Florida since I was five years old. RK: And then you got a master's in urban planning is that correct?\n8160 SS: Right. I have an undergraduate degree in geography and a master's in urban planning from Florida State. And the undergrad is from the University of Florida.\n986 RK: And how did you end up in Tampa? SS: I didn't want to go back to Miami [laughs].\n1027 RK: That's lucky for Tampa.\n11249 SS: Thank you. I had a sister in St. Petersburg at the time and a couple of friends from graduate school who had gotten jobs in St. Pete. So I went to St. Petersburg first, and that was my first job out of school. And then I just stayed in the area.\n1279 RK: And when did you start working for the city of Tampa? SS: In April 1, 1984.\n1397 RK: So that was during the administration-the latter part of the administration, of Bob Martinez.\n1410 SS: Right.\n15122 RK: And what was your position then, initially? SS: That was, I was the manager of Land Development Coordination Division.\n16233 RK: And what does that focus upon? SS: Really zoning, zoning; some short range planning; but really it was, it wasn't long range planning but some special projects. And short range, what I would call short range planning, and zoning.\n1742 RK: And was that a civil service position?\n1866 SS: It depends what you mean by that. Was it protected? RK: Yeah.\n19113 SS: Actually, I'm trying to remember. I think that might have been one of the few-I guess that one was protected.\n2061 RK: Actually I'm not even sure what I meant. So then Mayor...\n2162 SS: Well they did have what was considered like a protected...\n226 RK: OK\n23SS: ...class under civil service. But then as a Director you were, you were technically at the whim of the mayor.\n2493 RK: I see, OK. So then we get a new mayor when Mayor Martinez steps down to run for Governor.\n25SS: Right.\n2698 RK: And had you known Sandy Freedman before? SS: Only from her being on town council-City Council.\n27138 RK: And did you initially stay in exactly the same position after she became mayor? SS: I did, yes. I was in that position for nine years.\n2832 RK: Oh, for that long? SS: Yeah.\n29575 RK: OK. Can you, when the mayor came in, when Mayor Freedman came in, were there any-what would you say was a primary policy focus regarding what you were responsible for? Did she have a specific orientation regarding zoning and development? SS: She had a couple things that I can think of off the top of my head. She, she definitely had goals, a vision of some things that she wanted to accomplish. I think one of the first things that she did was she set up a Blue Ribbon Committee to look at planning and zoning for downtown. And that was definitely one of her objectives.\n30489 Her, one of her other things that she wanted to do was improve the permitting process. And, and some of the other-I'm just, really these are off the top of my head but-and of course she had a new focus, something that really had been not looked at when she hired a neighborhood coordinator and she was certainly viewing the city in a different light. And actually looking to the neighborhoods and respecting the neighborhoods, which in the past, people had treated completely the opposite.\n3159 RK: Did you work with the Blue Ribbon Committee? SS: I did.\n321415 RK: Can you just talk a little bit about it, I know it was sometime back, but as far as the major concerns? SS: She, she appointed or you know asked some pretty heavy hitters to serve on a Blue Ribbon Committee specifically to look at downtown. And they, but it was a pretty broad, you know, group, well represented. But I, I don't know how many people were on it, but maybe 12 or 15, I can't really recall. And one, before they really, and she, kind of laid out, charted out what she wanted them to accomplish and I'm not sure that I recall everything. But if I'm not mistaken, they, the Downtown Development Authority which existed at the time had hired-and I, I could be confusing my chronology here, but I think they had hired a consultant. They have a, they had a staff of a few people. And they had hired a consultant to look at a, a plan downtown or to do a plan. And I think it was not being well received if I remember correctly. And so she wanted to, she recognized that they needed a plan or new zoning for downtown. But you know wanted to get something done rather than just abandon what was, what was on that table. So the first thing she did was she had me and the planning director and-the planning director was Roger Wehling. But then the-the third person I think was the downtown development authority staff person at the time, but I think he left soon after that. And his name is, was like Jeff...\n3312 RK: Thaxter?\n34SS: Yeah.\n35RK: OK\n361527 SS: And I'm not, again I could be confusing my chronology, but he either was still the development authority or, or had been right before this, and maybe he was in another role. But anyway she sent the three of us out to look at other communities with successful downtowns. And we went on a whirlwind tour of I think, I want to say it was like seven cities in six days or, seven cities in seven days, and all across the country. And the purpose of that was to try to find good examples and narrow down a list that would be worth taking this Blue Ribbon Committee on and setting up meetings so they, they could talk to the people who were really involved in making that happen. And so we were kind of like the advance team. We set up, we decided which cities were worth seeing and then we set up meetings, you know-we, we met with whole bunch of people and found people who could you know, tell them about the financing and the zoning and the planning. And some people had special programs on maintenance where they did extra taxing districts so they could have better maintenance and trash pick up and that kind of stuff. And so we went on this tour which was a great experience. And then we came back and we, you know put, basically put a shorter tour together. And this Blue Ribbon Committee and the mayor, I didn't go on the big tour, but I think Roger and Jeff did. And they you know, took them to several cities-I think they, we narrowed it down to three, three cities across the country to see how they did things right.\n37410 RK: Do you recall any of them? SS: I, I can't remember which ones they went to, the three that they went to. But the ones that we went to were San Diego, Denver, Portland; we drove up to Vancouver, I don't know if that counted as one of them or not. Seattle-yeah, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver-we went to for the day-Denver-and then I always get St. Louis and Kansas City mixed up, the one with the big arch....\n3821 RK: That's St. Louis.\n3914 SS: St. Louis.\n4049 RK: I was there for six years, that's how I know.\n4111 SS: Really?\n428 RK: Yep.\n4371 SS: And there was another one-there were another one or two, I don't...\n447 RK: OK.\n4558 SS: ...terrible that I can't recall what they were, but...\n4656 RK: Then the full committee went back to three of those?\n47SS: I think, yeah, I think they ended up going to three.\n48RK: OK.\n491117 SS: But and then from that, you know we came back and we started meeting on some of the, trying to work out some of the zoning issues. And we ended up in a relatively short time-I mean there was a lot of controversy and a lot of arguments-but they came up with you know, with a plan and zoning districts. And you know, one of the, one of the objectives was preserving the waterfront or you know, and, and doing some design. And I'm trying to remember what the other objectives were but there were, they, they incorporated public art, and you know a lot of, some other design amenities when we actually did the zoning code. And I'm not sure if that-then that might have been the-that might have been the, the result also, or the initiation of the public art ordinance. Which you know, really was a big thing. And at, in its, in its day, I think it was, you know there weren't a lot of those around the country. So I think that was also what came out of [it] too, where buildings of a certain threshold had to provide public art. And, that's still in place today and a lot of people use that as an ordinance to look to.\n5064 RK: And did your final plan have to go to City Council? SS: Yes.\n51347 RK: And what type of response did it get, do you recall? SS: I think by the time it-I, I don't really recall-but I think most of the, most of the controversy had, was worked out and we got consensus from that Blue Ribbon Committee that by the time it got to Council I don't recall that it was problematic by that time. But I can't really remember.\n52890 RK: Can you characterize any of the disagreement? Was it, for example, pro-development as opposed to pro-regulation? Do you recall any of the splits? SS: I think a lot of it was what, what should go on-well there, there was a discussion of height, and should the heights be limited. And should things like, should buildings be designed so they were stepped back in, you know a lower height, like, they call that a wedding cake kind of style in terms of height. Whether-one of the bigger controversies was, should each property set aside open space, a percentage of open space on the block. And then a lot of it had to do with what should go on the waterfront and how it was designed. And I think, again I might be getting my chronologies mixed up, but I think a lot of, I think that might have been prompted by the NCNB building and how that had not been designed to respect the waterfront.\n531159 RK: And that was during the previous administration, wasn't it? SS: Right. That was, that was when the rose garden was removed and replaced with the NCNB Bank building and a parking garage. And my opinion was that, that wasn't a bad thing in concept but the way they designed it wasn't really good. And it really kind of ruined a segment of the waterfront and, and prevented it from being connected by any kind of future Riverwalk. The other part of the plan was it also came up with the concept of how they would somehow do a Riverwalk-it wasn't designed at that point of what it would look like, but at least giving public access to all of the waterfront parcels along the river if the city ever wanted to do some kind of Riverwalk. Or if we wanted them to contribute, and that was some of the arguments, who should build the Riverwalk. If you built a high-rise office building it, I believe it ended up that you needed to build your piece of the Riverwalk, even if nobody was on either side of you. And there were a lot of discussions about public access, you know, liability-if the public walked across my property, am I liable and those kinds of things.\n54947 RK: Did you have representatives from the development community on the committee? SS: Oh yeah. It was, it was actually mostly developers. It was balanced but it was very well represented. There were bankers, there were lawyers, there were a lot of developers. There were some merchants or merchants association people. Because one of the other things that we were trying to do is also get more retail space. So that you weren't walking, you know, so it was more pedestrian friendly and you weren't walking by a blank wall. So we wanted it to be designed for retail space even if it couldn't be occupied that way yet. If the market wasn't there to occupy it, we at least wanted-you could, you could occupy it, I think with an office, but it had to look like it could someday be retail space. RK: Did the issue of eminent domain come up in any context? And I ask that partly because that's been a controversial issue the past year of two nationwide.\n55298 SS: I can't remember if it came up as part of that Blue Ribbon Committee. But clearly the City of Tampa used eminent domain-I mean, not a lot, but they, they certainly used eminent domain for economic development purposes. But I don't think it related back to that Blue Ribbon Committee in any way.\n56RK: OK. How long did you stay employed with the city? SS: Eleven years.\n5722 RK: So you left in....\n5846 SS: I left in April, actually, March 30, 1995.\n59590 RK: OK and you did get a plan in place. And did it stay in place in pretty much the same form throughout that period that you were there? SS: Yes, it actually did. It was, I think the result was we came up with two, two zoning districts, CBD-1, and CBD-2. And one was higher height than the other, and you know, they, they had certain design features and certain kinds of review, architectural review. But it, yes it, it pretty much remained, and as far as I know, it remains in place now pretty close to what was adopted back then. I really haven't kept up with it the past few years, but.\n60808 RK: Were there any claims ever, while you at least were still with the city that these regulations perhaps impeded development because developers do not want to have to spend money to comply with them and time and so on? SS: No. I think what, what helped was when Martinez was there they actually undertook one of the, one of the first or the first, what they called area-wide DRI, development of regional impact. And it was called the downtown Tampa DRI. And because they did that DRI as a public sponsor, it got a lot of developers out of doing-having to eventually do their own DRI. And I think they recognized that that was a big advantage for Tampa downtown developers that a lot of other communities didn't have. And I don't think that the architectural reviews or the other design things were onerous.\n62226 SS: So I, I don't think there was a lot of-after the initial, you know, wrangling, once it got adopted, really I don't think there was a lot of criticism or change after that. It seemed everybody seemed to live, live with it.\n6380 RK: OK great. You mentioned a second goal was to improve the permitting process.\n65RK: Can you explain a little bit about that? SS: I think throughout her campaign and you know maybe when she was on Council the mayor had heard about a lot of problems with, you know permits and site plans and you know, that it wasn't a user friendly process. And, and actually right in the early '80s, right around when I got with, when I got to the city, they had just, under the previous administration, had just done or just started, kind of an overhaul of the permit process. Where the developers had complained of long lines-I mean literally they would wait for hours for a permit, or I mean, just to apply for a permit-hours and hours, and-there, the bottom line was there weren't enough staff and resources. And so at that time the developers said we, we'll pay more if you just get, you know, get us more people, you know, we're willing to pay for it. So when I got there in the early '80s they were just implementing kind of the first wave of these improvements, and, and those improvements really related to bodies. You know, they just needed more staff to review the plans and to accept them. And then things settled down and people were happy and you know, we got, we got some automation. We automated the permit system, and which took many years. But it got done and that certainly improved tracking of it and, and finding, you know, finding historical data and improving the tracking of the projects.\n661733 Then I guess, I'm not, I can't recall what specifically what she was hearing but there were certainly some rumblings. So when she came on board we actually, I, I guess inherently you think you know what they're complaining about. Oh, we're too restrictive, you know, we take too long, blah, blah, blah. Well, ironically when we did a survey, we found out that they were not really wanting us to be more lenient in their reviews. They really weren't complaining about the time frame, they were complaining about convenience. And the irony was the number one complaint was that they had to come downtown to get their permit-find a parking space, pay, you know either a lot of money in the garage and walk a couple of blocks, or pay a meter and keep running out and feeding it, you know, dimes at that point, and getting parking tickets. And so, after that the mayor-she had [us] start to look for buildings that had, you know that weren't right in the core of downtown. And a bunch of buildings were looked at, and the bottom line was we, we found a building right across at the river on North Boulevard. And the, the city bought it, or leased it long term, I can't remember which, from WEDU, and renovated it, completely gutted it, renovated it, bought new furniture for everybody, new computers, new phone system, everything. And I want to say that was in '93, so, that it actually opened. And that was a huge, you know, I think success for her. And again I always use that as an example that you think you know what customers want, but until you really ask them, you, you know, you don't necessarily-you need to communicate, and they'll tell you what they want, and they told us and it turned out it wasn't what we thought at all.\n6719 RK: Good you asked!\n6818 SS: Yeah, exactly.\n6960 RK: And is that still pretty much in place, do, do you know?\n701138 SS: Yes, yes it is. And, and what, what we did was we took it a step further and when she came to Bob Harrell who was my boss at the time when he served as, as head of the Department of Housing and Development, and he kind of said, you're in charge of this. And I went back to him and the mayor with a proposal, and I said, I'll be in charge of this, but here's what I think you really need to do. You need to take it a step further and putting all, all the people in one building isn't going to make them function better. It will give the applicants free parking, but it won't make the system work better. You need, they need to all answer to one person so there is one person in charge. Because there were people who, if you looked at everybody who touched a permit or a site plan, there were nine different departments involved. So if you know, if an applicant came in and said, I want to save this tree, but I'm going to have to lose a parking space, then you had two directors who, why should they give up, you know their own code? And there wasn't one person accountable, and the people weren't on one team, they were on nine teams.\n71573 So I proposed a reorganization into one department for everybody who was going to now be in that building. And she agreed to it. And so then we implemented that proposal, the, the reorganization along with the physical relocation. And everybody-there were approximately 90 people that were going to be moving to that building. And everybody except the eight or nine fire marshals were put under our department and reorganized. And I think that, more than even the physical location was what made it a success. Because everybody had to play together and be on the same team.\n721261 And it also allowed us to eliminate a lot of duplication with each little area, each little specialty. Engineers, you know, the people who approved driveway permits, people who approved trees, people who reviewed storm water-they each would have had a separate department to, back downtown, to have to answer to. And there were, you know, in some cases, some inherently conflicting goals between, for example the engineers who paved the streets, and, and the same engineers approving applications from developers. It was like they had two jobs that didn't necessarily relate. And so what we tried to do is, is pull out those areas of those departments that dealt with this other service of development applications and treat them as a service, as their own service. And you know I think that was a big part of the success too. And it, in some ways it was like pulling teeth with the staff because some of them literally went home physically ill when they found out they were going to be moving and reorganized. But eventually they you know, I think they all came around and I think it's, it's a really good example of you know, how, how government-or any organization can improve, if it's willing to, you know, look, look at, look at itself and how it operates.\n73319 RK: And did Mr. Bob Harrell head that department? SS: He headed the department and I headed the, that, that-let's see is that one-I think maybe in the middle of that Fernando Noriega might have-I can't remember when he took over. Bob certainly started it. I'm not sure if he was still in his position when it opened....\n7420 [End Tape 1, Side A]\n75182 RK: This is the second side of the interview with Susan Swift and this is being recorded from University of South Florida because Ms. Swift now works in Virginia as an urban planner.\n761420 Can I ask a question please about a general issue of regulation of building and development? Some apparently during the years that Sandy Freedman was mayor felt that the regulations were more onerous than they would have liked to have seen, I guess we should, could put it that way. And I recall when the next mayor took office, Mayor Dick Greco, he initiated a review of the existing regulations and some changes were made-I don't know the details to the changes. But can you tell me first whether I'm correct at all that some of the building community, the development community felt that the regulations were stricter than they, than they wanted them to be at least; and also were the regulations tightened up during the Freedman administration concerning storm water and the other aspect of development? SS: I, of course I have a personal bias, because I helped write some of them. But I don't think that they were, that they were onerous. And what's funny about it is that the Council approves the ordinances, all the land related ordinances. So if they were onerous, it was because the Council adopted them. And I think a lot of people for example had thought the tree ordinances, tree preservation ordinances were too onerous. But that wasn't approved by the mayor, it was approved by the Council. So I think, I think that was a lot of, a lot of politics, a lot of misplaced blame because she was a direct person.\n77883 And you know, Mr. Greco, in my opinion, told people what they wanted to hear. And although I wasn't there when he came in and changed or, or studied a lot of the codes, where it was my understanding that really a lot of the codes were left the same. But I think the difference is that under the Freedman administration everybody was treated consistently and the, and the codes were consistently applied. If somebody called her office and complained and they were a big wig or a friend, they were very good about saying, I appreciate it, but you really need to talk to so and so, I don't get involved in that. And so I think on the day to day application, there, there was a lot of consistency. And we made people consistently happy and we made people consistently unhappy-but I think we treated them consistently. But I think the difference was the codes weren't that much different.\n78566 I think there were some things that were changed when he first came in. But I think what happened was most of the changes that were suggested were, ended up not being changed because the neighborhood folks came in and said, no we don't want you to reduce that buffer, you know or, or increase that height. So I think, I think when he came in he didn't realize that there was another constituency besides the developers. And so when they tried to change the codes I don't think that as many of them passed. And I think the regulations were still pretty much the same.\n791523 But I think in the day to day administration they were not applied consistently. And again I'm just saying, I'm just reporting what my former staff said because I was no longer there. But it was my understanding that they, that the staff was constantly nervous about were they-if John Q developer called and complained that we were being too tough, then a call was made to the staff, you're being too tough, find a way to fix it. And if a call from John Q citizen came, that you're not being tough enough, I want my house protected, then a call when down and said, you're not being tough enough. And that they, the staff never knew whether-they were never empowered, they were, or they were no longer empowered to make their own judgment calls on, you know, when, when somebody called upstairs, instead of telling them that we're going to be consistent, they were, they were clearly told to take one direction or another. Now I'm not saying they're, that they were told to do something illegal, but you know, there are, there are hundreds of interpretations that people make in terms of site plans and permits. Everyday you have to make certain calls. And I think when it came to those calls they were not, the regulations weren't necessarily applied consistently if somebody had made a call. And that was, I think the frustration that the staff had that they weren't, that they weren't really allowed to be consistent. If somebody made you know, made noise, then, then they, they got something. They got special treatment.\n8073 RK: I see. So it was implementation that was different for the most part.\n8117 SS: Right, right.\n82936 RK: OK great. A third focus of the mayor you mentioned in the beginning of the interview had to do with neighborhoods and a neighborhood coordinator being hired. Can you talk a little bit about that? SS: Yeah that was something that I think she really changed the way that, that the staff-I mean certainly the way the neighborhoods viewed themselves because they were suddenly empowered. And but, but even viewing it from the inside the way the staff thought-it changed the way of thinking that you know, this isn't us against them, and there are citizens, there are people with faces out there. And it really worked both ways because of some of the efforts that she made, I think the citizens also saw that the staff were people with, with faces-they weren't just faceless bureaucrats that made these decisions and you know, were lazy or, or thoughtless or whatever, that we were real people and we lived in the community and we cared.\n83639 And I think she, there were several programs involved in it, but I do think it changed the culture of the city. And made, made people think out of the box and involved stakeholders. I mean I think planners already do, already think that way. But there are a lot of other departments, utilities, engineers, you know, a variety of different departments that did things based on a book and didn't necessarily ask stakeholders first or didn't think through options. And I think the culture change made them think out of the box, think of different options, and also recognize that there were citizens and residents and neighborhoods out there.\n84885 And, and sometimes they had good ideas too-and maybe we should ask them, so it was complete culture change I think from the way things were handled previously when you know, in particular somebody like Margaret Vizzi, who was a homeowner, a citizen, would call up when I first started working there and complain about the office being built and how, they weren't doing this and they weren't doing that and the plans said this-and a lot of people just kind of ignored her as some you know, pain in the neck citizen. And it turned out in a lot of cases that she was right-that they hadn't built it right or you know, they were supposed to do this and they hadn't. And the culture changed to you know, be more respectful of those kinds of comments and, and then literally went so far as to outreach to those, to those groups and those citizens and have them have a say in their community.\n851003 I mean one of the most amazing programs I think they did was in code enforcement which wasn't really in my division at the time. But there was one neighborhood in Sulphur Springs and they had a lot of problems enforcing conversions of houses into duplexes. And it was just a nightmare for our code enforcement division to really enforce. And they ended up working with a neighborhood group where they became, not vigilantes, but they, if they saw something they would send it to us and we had specific details of what we needed done to, to get. And what kind of information they had to provide to us. So it wasn't, you know, just any drive by that they thought somebody was you know, converting something just because there were a couple of cars in the driveway. They, they actually had specific information that they worked with them on. And they ended up you know really ultimately making some awareness and fixing the problem. And you know it was kind of like the ultimate public/private partnership.\n86848 And also in enforcement they did something like they, they tried the docket for code enforcement cases were so long. And it took so long to get them through because of state law that they used the neighborhood group as kind of the first, the first line of defense or offense. And what they would do was, thinking they could get from peer pressure, better results, the neighborhood group sent out a little postcard and said, hi, you know we noticed, we, we your neighbors noticed that you have too many tires piled up in the back of your house. We would love for you to move it. And you know it was like, honey getting more than a hammer and they went ahead and, I don't know what the percentage was, but it was an incredibly high percentage rate when their neighborhoods asked them to clean it up versus when the city had asked them to clean it up.\n87126 So there were a lot of you know, neighborhood initiatives that, that again, I think she changed the culture of the whole city.\n88148 RK: Is it true that one component of the neighborhood initiative was to write a new element to the comprehensive plan that focused on neighborhoods?\n89SS: Yes.\n9037 RK: Can you talk a little about that?\n91841 SS: Yeah. That, that was in a way I think it was kind of more of a statement than-whether it was really enforceable. But I, again I think it was a culture change to show the importance of neighborhoods and that the, the city and a comprehensive plan really is more than, in Florida there were functional elements. And in a lot of cases I think rather than doing like a master plan or a neighborhood plan for each area, because there were like fifty or sixty neighborhoods, they tried to say from a policy perspective, this is what's important in our city, and this is how we want neighborhoods to be you know, respected, and, and involved. And so it was really a, really short policy document, but laid out what the philosophy was, and the Council actually adopted it. Now again, I haven't paid attention so I'm not sure how that's survived.\n92RK: Can I, I'd like to ask a couple of other questions that are more general regarding the mayor, Mayor Freedman. One can you characterize what you think was kind of her leadership style?\n933343 SS: Well she was certainly a leader, and she had, she had things she wanted to accomplish. And she you know, she wanted to improve the city on a variety of levels. And she was, I mean she functioned more like a city manager more so than other-I mean mayor Martinez did, did too, he was I thought, a good manager as well. But so she wasn't like too hands on, but, but she was more hands on than I think most mayors would be. She had some ideas of her own of how to, you know, if she had, she had a vision for OK I want to change X. Sometimes she had some ideas on her own, and sometimes she, she didn't. But she was very open to new ideas. People could come to her on something she hadn't even thought of and say, hey we think we can fix this, or we want to do this better, what do you think? She was, you know, very open to it and very good about asking the right questions. OK, who would this affect? What are the downsides? What are the positives? What would it take to do it? But definitely, definitely action oriented and, and was a leader in terms of, she had, she had a vision of, of what she wanted. What she wanted changed or what she wanted the city to be like. And you know she empowered everybody to kind of come up with ideas and then let us run with it. And, and frankly after working in other communities-you kind of think everyplace is like that until you work elsewhere. And, and I just wrote Bob Harrell an email recently saying how spoiled we were that you know we were able to do so many different, you know really neat and different things and actually accomplish so many things. And we did so many state of the art things in some ways. But you didn't realize that while you were doing it that the rest of the world wasn't at your same level. And now that I've worked in other places and realize that, first of all you need a leader like that who's willing to make change. And you know you need somebody to, to help facilitate that through. And she was really, really very good at that. SS: Did she have a top staff person or a couple of top staff people that tried to follow through on implementation and make sure the changes actually reached the people? SS: I think, I think she had a really good senior management team, you know with the exception of you know maybe one or two people everybody really was a team player. She did have a Chief of Staff but she didn't rely solely on him. She really dealt with the department head. You know she was, she was pretty open. And, and unfortunately I don't think the perception, the public perception of her was that way but she was you know I could go up there and say I would like to talk to her, even, even before I became an assistant director, if I, at the manager level. And you know, admittedly because I, not many managers probably had that access, but because I did zoning things and they were more visible-but I could go up there and tell her assistant, you know, I need an appointment on X, and you know she would, you know find a time. It might not have been for a week, but you know, it, it wasn't that I didn't have access to her. And I think that she was very accessible. You know and always, again made you feel like if you had a new idea that it wasn't crazy. You know, may not go with it, but, but it, she, she didn't make you feel you know, stupid for asking.\n9492 RK: And I have one final question. I know you have another meeting in about three minutes...\n9526 SS: No, you're OK for now.\n96880 RK: Oh, OK. I, well in that case I have two questions. [Susan laughs] Was there, was there any major-was there a significant change in the zoning code during the time that you were with the Freedman administration? SS: There was a-I'm trying to think of major-when I got there, that was before her-there was one major one when I got there. There were, I wouldn't call it major. I think what we did was, at, at some point, and I frankly can't remember if it was at the end of Martinez or during her administration as a result of the comprehensive plan. Which I, I'm trying to think, was the late '80s. I think in the late '80s they, we adopted a comprehensive plan and then you had a year basically to rezone the, rezone properties to conform to the plan. And at, that took over a year and we did it by quadrant. So that kind of was when this big new zoning code came into affect.\n9882 SS: After that, and I'm, I frankly don't think it was under her administration....\n10036 SS: ...but it might have overlapped.\n101RK: OK.\n102536 SS: Now, we, we did an annual review of the zoning code and if we, and we literally kept a running list of you know, problems over the years that we thought needed to be changed, or and Council would tell us. And you know, some people could go to the Council and say, hey I want this on the list for the next revision. And the good news about that was they didn't, they weren't always changing it like some places do. And, but they did, you know they did take a good look at it every year. And we made, you know, the necessary changes.\n103349 RK: Was this sometimes in response to or related to what you were speaking about, about before to neighborhood groups? SS: Yeah, sometimes it was related to neighborhood groups. Sometimes it was, you know developers came, or somebody came in and they would, had some new use that you know, as a result of technology, like even cell towers, you know.\n104RK: Yes.\n105348 SS: At some point, while I was there they invented cell towers and we had to deal with them and add them to the zoning code. Or, you know, some other kind of new use that resulted from a new technology or something. Sometimes it was that, sometimes it was as mundane as a new kind of fencing that you know, wasn't recognized or something like that.\n106977 RK: Now this is my final question. And you were very familiar with, I think, the Freedman administration, not just in terms of the job you did but more generally. And if one tries to place the administration kind of historically-you have Martinez before and Greco after, but you had, you know a longer period obviously. And you ask what the legacy of the Freedman administration might be-in, you know, any sphere whatsoever, does anything come to mind in particular that you think people thirty years from now might be looking at or speaking about? SS: Well I do think that the downtown was the, was a huge one. And even though maybe not, not as much downtown development occurred during that time, the fact that she got these zoning districts and better design of them, you know, with this Blue Ribbon Committee. That she came in and saw that as one of her first priorities. And those, that effort set the tone and the look of downtown I think for, you know, decades to come.\n107587 And I think the obviously the other thing was both her housing programs. The city had housing staff but they really didn't do very much until she came on board and people came with her, to her with ideas of you know, we could do this and we could do that. And, and she let them run with it. And you know ended up getting national attention for that. And also the neighborhood programs. You know at one point they packaged the neighborhood programs and there were forty different neighborhood related programs that had been initiated. I think all virtually her, during her administration.\n108497 And the other is, you know I do think that the, it, what it's called a construction services center, but you know, the, the permitting center and, and the way it's organized. I think that again, people really look to that I think of how to, how to do it right. And you know, although anybody who goes to, through a regulatory process is never happy, they you know, they really are, have always been one step ahead I think of everybody else. And you know, have, have really done a good job at that.\n10991 There's one other thing too that I forgot-other than the downtown-and I forgot what it was.\n110200 RK: Well you've done a good job of remembering a lot though over the last hour, and I greatly appreciate your time. I know how busy you are in your new job. Maybe you should tell people where you are.\n111329 SS: I'm in Leesburg, Virginia, which is a rapidly growing suburb of Washington, DC. And last year was, it was, it's the county seat of what last year the census said was the fastest growing county in the country. And we used to think, in Florida we thought 2% a year, or 4% a year of growth was a big deal. Here they have 10%....\n112RK: Oh boy.\n113107 SS: ...a year growth. So, in ten years, between the 1990 and the 2000 census they doubled in size here, so.\n114RK: So you have a busy job.\n115SS: Yeah.\n116RK: I really very much appreciate-I very much appreciate your taking the time to talk. Thank you very, very much.\n117SS: Thank you and let me know if you have any....\n118[End Tape]\n1 Sandy Freedman Oral History Project University of South Florida Interview with: Susan Swift Interviewed by: Robert Kerstein Location: On phone from USF to Virginia Date: February 8, 2006 Transcribed by: Rebecca Willman Audit edited by: Rachel Lisi (02/13/07) Final edited by: Nicole Cox (10/23/07) [Tape 1, Side A] RK: OK, this should be recording. This is an interview by phone with Susan Swift. And it's February 8, 2006. And Susan, what was your position with the Freedman administration? SS: Manager of Development Coordination. And then I was the Deputy Director of what is now known as Business and Community Services I think. RK: They keep on reorganizing. SS: Right it was housing and, Housing and Development. RK: OK. And the main focus is going to be the Freedman administration, but if you don't mind, can I just ask a little bit about your background, where you were born and where you grew up? SS: I was born in New York, and grew up in Miami, Florida since I was five years old. RK: And then you got a master's in urban planning is that correct? SS: Right. I have an undergraduate degree in geography and a master's in urban planning from Florida State. And the undergrad is from the University of Florida. RK: And how did you end up in Tampa? SS: I didn't want to go back to Miami [laughs]. RK: That's lucky for Tampa. SS: Thank you. I had a sister in St. Petersburg at the time and a couple of friends from graduate school who had gotten jobs in St. Pete. So I went to St. Petersburg fi rst, and that was my first job out of school. And then I just stayed in the area.\n2 RK: And when did you start working for the city of Tampa? SS: In April 1, 1984. RK: So that was during the administration the latter part of the administration, of Bob Martinez. SS: Right. RK: And what was your position then, initially? SS: That was, I was the manager of Land Development Coordination Division. RK: And what does that focus upon? SS: Really zoning, zoning; some short range planning; but really it w as, it wasn't long range planning but some special projects. And short range, what I would call short range planning, and zoning. RK: And was that a civil service position? SS: It depends what you mean by that. Was it protected? RK: Yeah. SS: Actuall y, I'm trying to remember. I think that might have been one of the few I guess that one was protected. RK: Actually I'm not even sure what I meant. So then Mayor SS: Well they did have what was considered like a protected RK: OK SS: class under civi l service. But then as a Director you were, you were technically at the whim of the mayor. RK: I see, OK. So then we get a new mayor when Mayor Martinez steps down to run for Governor. SS: Right. RK: And had you known Sandy Freedman before? SS: Only from her being on town council City Council.\n3 RK: And did you initially stay in exactly the same position after she became mayor? SS: I did, yes. I was in that position for nine years. RK: Oh, for that long? SS: Yeah. RK: OK. Can you, when the mayo r came in, when Mayor Freedman came in, were there any what would you say was a primary policy focus regarding what you were responsible for? Did she have a specific orientation regarding zoning and development? SS: She had a couple things that I can thi nk of off the top of my head. She, she definitely had goals, a vision of some things that she wanted to accomplish. I think one of the first things that she did was she set up a Blue Ribbon Committee to look at planning and zoning for downtown. And that wa s definitely one of her objectives. Her, one of her other things that she wanted to do was improve the permitting process. And, and some of the other I'm just, really these are off the top of my head but and of course she had a new focus, something that really had been not looked at when she hired a neighborhood coordinator and she was certainly viewing the city in a different light. And actually looking to the neighborhoods and respecting the neighborhoods, which in the past, people had treated completel y the opposite. RK: Did you work with the Blue Ribbon Committee? SS: I did. RK: Can you just talk a little bit about it, I know it was sometime back, but as far as the major concerns? SS: She, she appointed or you know asked some pretty heavy hitters to serve on a Blue Ribbon Committee specifically to look at downtown. And they, but it was a pretty broad, you know, group, well represented. But I, I don't know how many people were on it, but maybe 12 or 15, I can't really recall. And one, before they r eally, and she, kind of laid out, charted out what she wanted them to accomplish and I'm not sure that I recall everything. But if I'm not mistaken, they, the Downtown Development Authority which existed at the time had hired and I, I could be confusing my chronology here, but I think they had hired a consultant. They have a, they had a staff of a few people. And they had hired a consultant to look at a, a plan downtown or to do a plan. And I think it was not being well received if I remember correctly. And so she wanted to, she recognized that they needed a plan or new zoning for downtown. But you know wanted to get something done rather than just abandon what was, what was on that table. So the first thing she did was she had me and the planning director a nd the planning director was Roger Wehling. But then the the third person I think was the downtown development\n4 authority staff person at the time, but I think he left soon after that. And his name is, was like Jeff RK: Thaxter? SS: Yeah. RK: OK SS: And I'm not, again I could be confusing my chronology, but he either was still the development authority or, or had been right before this, and maybe he was in another role. But anyway she sent the three of us out to look at other communities with successf ul downtowns. And we went on a whirlwind tour of I think, I want to say it was like seven cities in six days or, seven cities in seven days, and all across the country. And the purpose of that was to try to find good examples and narrow down a list that wo uld be worth taking this Blue Ribbon Committee on and setting up meetings so they, they could talk to the people who were really involved in making that happen. And so we were kind of like the advance team. We set up, we decided which cities were worth see ing and then we set up meetings, you know we, we met with whole bunch of people and found people who could you know, tell them about the financing and the zoning and the planning. And some people had special programs on maintenance where they did extra tax ing districts so they could have better maintenance and trash pick up and that kind of stuff. And so we went on this tour which was a great experience. And then we came back and we, you know put, basically put a shorter tour together. And this Blue Ribbon Committee and the mayor, I didn't go on the big tour, but I think Roger and Jeff did. And they you know, took them to several cities I think they, we narrowed it down to three, three cities across the country to see how they did things right. RK: Do you recall any of them? SS: I, I can't remember which ones they went to, the three that they went to. But the ones that we went to were San Diego, Denver, Portland; we drove up to Vancouver, I don't know if that counted as one of them or not. Seattle yeah, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver we went to for the day Denver and then I always get St. Louis and Kansas City mixed up, the one with the big arch. RK: That's St. Louis. SS: St. Louis. RK: I was there for six years, that's how I know. SS: Really? RK: Yep.\n5 SS: And there was another one there were another one or two, I don't RK: OK. SS: terrible that I can't recall what they were, but RK: Then the full committee went back to three of those? SS: I think, yeah, I think they ended up going to thre e. RK: OK. SS: But and then from that, you know we came back and we started meeting on some of the, trying to work out some of the zoning issues. And we ended up in a relatively short time I mean there was a lot of controversy and a lot of arguments but they came up with you know, with a plan and zoning districts. And you know, one of the, one of the objectives was preserving the waterfront or you know, and, and doing some design. And I'm trying to remember what the other objectives were but there were, they, they incorporated public art, and you know a lot of, some other design amenities when we actually did the zoning code. And I'm not sure if that then that might have been the that might have been the, the result also, or the initiation of the public a rt ordinance. Which you know, really was a big thing. And at, in its, in its day, I think it was, you know there weren't a lot of those around the country. So I think that was also what came out of [it] too, where buildings of a certain threshold had to pr ovide public art. And, that's still in place today and a lot of people use that as an ordinance to look to. RK: And did your final plan have to go to City Council? SS: Yes. RK: And what type of response did it get, do you recall? SS: I think by the t ime it I, I don't really recall but I think most of the, most of the controversy had, was worked out and we got consensus from that Blue Ribbon Committee that by the time it got to Council I don't recall that it was problematic by that time. But I can't re ally remember. RK: Can you characterize any of the disagreement? Was it, for example, pro development as opposed to pro regulation? Do you recall any of the splits? SS: I think a lot of it was what, what should go on well there, there was a discussion of height, and should the heights be limited. And should things like, should buildings be designed so they were stepped back in, you know a lower height, like, they call that a wedding cake kind of style in terms of height. Whether one of the bigger contro versies was, should each property set aside open space, a percentage of open space on the block. And then a lot of it had to do with what should go on the waterfront and how it was\n6 designed. And I think, again I might be getting my chronologies mixed up, b ut I think a lot of, I think that might have been prompted by the NCNB building and how that had not been designed to respect the waterfront. RK: And that was during the previous administration, wasn't it? SS: Right. That was, that was when the rose g arden was removed and replaced with the NCNB Bank building and a parking garage. And my opinion was that, that wasn't a bad thing in concept but the way they designed it wasn't really good. And it really kind of ruined a segment of the waterfront and, and prevented it from being connected by any kind of future Riverwalk. The other part of the plan was it also came up with the concept of how they would somehow do a Riverwalk it wasn't designed at that point of what it would look like, but at least giving p ublic access to all of the waterfront parcels along the river if the city ever wanted to do some kind of Riverwalk. Or if we wanted them to contribute, and that was some of the arguments, who should build the Riverwalk. If you built a high rise office buil ding it, I believe it ended up that you needed to build your piece of the Riverwalk, even if nobody was on either side of you. And there were a lot of discussions about public access, you know, liability if the public walked across my property, am I liable and those kinds of things. RK: Did you have representatives from the development community on the committee? SS: Oh yeah. It was, it was actually mostly developers. It was balanced but it was very well represented. There were bankers, there were lawye rs, there were a lot of developers. There were some merchants or merchants association people. Because one of the other things that we were trying to do is also get more retail space. So that you weren't walking, you know, so it was more pedestrian friendl y and you weren't walking by a blank wall. So we wanted it to be designed for retail space even if it couldn't be occupied that way yet. If the market wasn't there to occupy it, we at least wanted you could, you could occupy it, I think with an office, but it had to look like it could someday be retail space. RK: Did the issue of eminent domain come up in any context? And I ask that partly because that's been a controversial issue the past year of two nationwide. SS: I can't remember if it came up as pa rt of that Blue Ribbon Committee. But clearly the City of Tampa used eminent domain I mean, not a lot, but they, they certainly used eminent domain for economic development purposes. But I don't think it related back to that Blue Ribbon Committee in any wa y. RK: OK. How long did you stay employed with the city? SS: Eleven years.\n7 RK: So you left in. SS: I left in April, actually, March 30, 1995. RK: OK and you did get a plan in place. And did it stay in place in pretty much the same form throughout that period that you were there? SS: Yes, it actually did. It was, I think the result was we came up with two, two zoning districts, CBD 1, and CBD 2. And one was higher height than the other, and you know, they, they had certain design features and cert ain kinds of review, architectural review. But it, yes it, it pretty much remained, and as far as I know, it remains in place now pretty close to what was adopted back then. I really haven't kept up with it the past few years, but. RK: Were there any cla ims ever, while you at least were still with the city that these regulations perhaps impeded development because developers do not want to have to spend money to comply with them and time and so on? SS: No. I think what, what helped was when Martinez was there they actually undertook one of the, one of the first or the first, what they called area wide DRI, development of regional impact. And it was called the downtown Tampa DRI. And because they did that DRI as a public sponsor, it got a lot of developer s out of doing having to eventually do their own DRI. And I think they recognized that that was a big advantage for Tampa downtown developers that a lot of other communities didn't have. And I don't think that the architectural reviews or the other design things were onerous. RK: OK SS: So I, I don't think there was a lot of after the initial, you know, wrangling, once it got adopted, really I don't think there was a lot of criticism or change after that. It seemed everybody seemed to live, live with i t. RK: OK great. You mentioned a second goal was to improve the permitting process. SS: Right. RK: Can you explain a little bit about that? SS: I think throughout her campaign and you know maybe when she was on Council the mayor had heard about a lo t of problems with, you know permits and site plans and you know, that it wasn't a user friendly process. And, and actually right in the early 80s, right around when I got with, when I got to the city, they had just, under the previous administration, had just done or just started, kind of an overhaul of the permit process. Where the developers had complained of long lines I mean literally they would wait for hours for a permit, or I mean, just to apply for a permit hours and hours, and there, the\n8 bottom l ine was there weren't enough staff and resources. And so at that time the developers said we, we'll pay more if you just get, you know, get us more people, you know, we're willing to pay for it So when I got there in the early 80s they were just implemen ting kind of the first wave of these improvements, and, and those improvements really related to bodies. You know, they just needed more staff to review the plans and to accept them. And then things settled down and people were happy and you know, we got, we got some automation. We automated the permit system, and which took many years. But it got done and that certainly improved tracking of it and, and finding, you know, finding historical data and improving the tracking of the projects. Then I guess, I'm not, I can't recall what specifically what she was hearing but there were certainly some rumblings. So when she came on board we actually, I, I guess inherently you think you know what they're complaining about. Oh, we're too restrictive, you know, we tak e too long, blah, blah, blah. Well, ironically when we did a survey, we found out that they were not really wanting us to be more lenient in their reviews. They really weren't complaining about the time frame, they were complaining about convenience. And the irony was the number one complaint was that they had to come downtown to get their permit find a parking space, pay, you know either a lot of money in the garage and walk a couple of blocks, or pay a meter and keep running out and feeding it, you know, dimes at that point, and getting parking tickets. And so, after that the mayor she had [us] start to look for buildings that had, you know that weren't right in the core of downtown. And a bunch of buildings were looked at, and the bottom line was we, w e found a building right across at the river on North Boulevard. And the, the city bought it, or leased it long term, I can't remember which, from WEDU, and renovated it, completely gutted it, renovated it, bought new furniture for everybody, new computers new phone system, everything. And I want to say that was in '93, so, that it actually opened. And that was a huge, you know, I think success for her. And again I always use that as an example that you think you know what customers want, but until you re ally ask them, you, you know, you don't necessarily you need to communicate, and they'll tell you what they want, and they told us and it turned out it wasn't what we thought at all. RK: Good you asked! SS: Yeah, exactly. RK: And is that still pretty m uch in place, do, do you know? SS: Yes, yes it is. And, and what, what we did was we took it a step further and when she came to Bob Harrell who was my boss at the time when he served as, as head of the Department of Housing and Development, and he kind of said, you're in charge of this. And I went back to him and the mayor with a proposal, and I said, I'll be in charge of this, but here's what I think you really need to do. You need to take it a step further and putting all, all the people in one buildin g isn't going to make them function better. It will give the applicants free parking, but it won't make the system work better. You need, they\n9 need to all answer to one person so there is one person in charge. Because there were people who, if you looked a t everybody who touched a permit or a site plan, there were nine different departments involved. So if you know, if an applicant came in and said, I want to save this tree, but I'm going to have to lose a parking space, then you had two directors who, why should they give up, you know their own code? And there wasn't one person accountable, and the people weren't on one team, they were on nine teams. So I proposed a reorganization into one department for everybody who was going to now be in that building. And she agreed to it. And so then we implemented that proposal, the, the reorganization along with the physical relocation. And everybody there were approximately 90 people that were going to be moving to that building. And everybody except the eight or n ine fire marshals were put under our department and reorganized. And I think that, more than even the physical location was what made it a success. Because everybody had to play together and be on the same team. And it also allowed us to eliminate a lot of duplication with each little area, each little specialty. Engineers, you know, the people who approved driveway permits, people who approved trees, people who reviewed storm water they each would have had a separate department to, back downtown, to have to answer to. And there were, you know, in some cases, some inherently conflicting goals between, for example the engineers who paved the streets, and, and the same engineers approving applications from developers. It was like they had two jobs that didn' t necessarily relate. And so what we tried to do is, is pull out those areas of those departments that dealt with this other service of development applications and treat them as a service, as their own service. And you know I think that was a big part of the success too. And it, in some ways it was like pulling teeth with the staff because some of them literally went home physically ill when they found out they were going to be moving and reorganized. But eventually they you know, I think they all came aro und and I think it's, it's a really good example of you know, how, how government or any organization can improve, if it's willing to, you know, look, look at, look at itself and how it operates. RK: And did Mr. Bob Harrell head that department? SS: He headed the department and I headed the, that, that let's see is that one I think maybe in the middle of that Fernando Noriega might have I can't remember when he took over. Bob certainly started it. I'm not sure if he was still in his position when it ope ned. [End Tape 1, Side A] RK: This is the second side of the interview with Susan Swift and this is being recorded from University of South Florida because Ms. Swift now works in Virginia as an urban planner. Can I ask a question please about a genera l issue of regulation of building and development? Some apparently during the years that Sandy Freedman was mayor felt that\n10 the regulations were more onerous than they would have liked to have seen, I guess we should, could put it that way. And I recall wh en the next mayor took office, Mayor Dick Greco, he initiated a review of the existing regulations and some changes were made I don't know the details to the changes. But can you tell me first whether I'm correct at all that some of the building community, the development community felt that the regulations were stricter than they, than they wanted them to be at least; and also were the regulations tightened up during the Freedman administration concerning storm water and the other aspect of development? SS: I, of course I have a personal bias, because I helped write some of them. But I don't think that they were, that they were onerous. And what's funny about it is that the Council approves the ordinances, all the land related ordinances. So if they were onerous, it was because the Council adopted them. And I think a lot of people for example had thought the tree ordinances, tree preservation ordinances were too onerous. But that wasn't approved by the mayor, it was approved by the Council. So I think, I t hink that was a lot of, a lot of politics, a lot of misplaced blame because she was a direct person. And you know, Mr. Greco, in my opinion, told people what they wanted to hear. And although I wasn't there when he came in and changed or, or studied a lo t of the codes, where it was my understanding that really a lot of the codes were left the same. But I think the difference is that under the Freedman administration everybody was treated consistently and the, and the codes were consistently applied. If so mebody called her office and complained and they were a big wig or a friend, they were very good about saying, I appreciate it, but you really need to talk to so and so, I don't get involved in that. And so I think on the day to day application, there, the re was a lot of consistency. And we made people consistently happy and we made people consistently unhappy but I think we treated them consistently. But I think the difference was the codes weren't that much different. I think there were some things that were changed when he first came in. But I think what happened was most of the changes that were suggested were, ended up not being changed because the neighborhood folks came in and said, no we don't want you to reduce that buffer, you know or, or increase that height. So I think, I think when he came in he didn't realize that there was another constituency besides the developers. And so when they tried to change the codes I don't think that as many of them passed. And I think the regulations were still pre tty much the same. But I think in the day to day administration they were not applied consistently. And again I'm just saying, I'm just reporting what my former staff said because I was no longer there. But it was my understanding that they, that the sta ff was constantly nervous about were they if John Q developer called and complained that we were being too tough, then a call was made to the staff, you're being too tough, find a way to fix it. And if a call from John Q citizen came, that you're not being tough enough, I want my house protected, then a call when down and said, you're not being tough enough. And that they, the staff never knew whether they were never empowered, they were, or they were no longer empowered to make their own judgment calls on, you know, when, when\n11 somebody called upstairs, instead of telling them that we're going to be consistent, they were, they were clearly told to take one direction or another. Now I'm not saying they're, that they were told to do something illegal, but you know, there are, there are hundreds of interpretations that people make in terms of site plans and permits. Everyday you have to make certain calls. And I think when it came to those calls they were not, the regulations weren't necessarily applied consiste ntly if somebody had made a call. And that was, I think the frustration that the staff had that they weren't, that they weren't really allowed to be consistent. If somebody made you know, made noise, then, then they, they got something. They got special tr eatment. RK: I see. So it was implementation that was different for the most part. SS: Right, right. RK: OK great. A third focus of the mayor you mentioned in the beginning of the interview had to do with neighborhoods and a neighborhood coordinator being hired. Can you talk a little bit about that? SS: Yeah that was something that I think she really changed the way that, that the staff I mean certainly the way the neighborhoods viewed themselves because they were suddenly empowered. And but, but ev en viewing it from the inside the way the staff thought it changed the way of thinking that you know, this isn't us against them, and there are citizens, there are people with faces out there. And it really worked both ways because of some of the efforts t hat she made, I think the citizens also saw that the staff were people with, with faces they weren't just faceless bureaucrats that made these decisions and you know, were lazy or, or thoughtless or whatever, that we were real people and we lived in the co mmunity and we cared. And I think she, there were several programs involved in it, but I do think it changed the culture of the city. And made, made people think out of the box and involved stakeholders. I mean I think planners already do, already think that way. But there are a lot of other departments, utilities, engineers, you know, a variety of different departments that did things based on a book and didn't necessarily ask stakeholders first or didn't think through options. And I think the culture ch ange made them think out of the box, think of different options, and also recognize that there were citizens and residents and neighborhoods out there. And, and sometimes they had good ideas too and maybe we should ask them, so it was complete culture ch ange I think from the way things were handled previously when you know, in particular somebody like Margaret Vizzi, who was a homeowner, a citizen, would call up when I first started working there and complain about the office being built and how, they wer en't doing this and they weren't doing that and the plans said this and a lot of people just kind of ignored her as some you know, pain in the neck citizen. And it turned out in a lot of cases that she was right that they hadn't built it right or you know, they were supposed to do this and they hadn't. And the culture changed to you know, be more respectful of those kinds of comments and, and then literally went so far as to\n12 outreach to those, to those groups and those citizens and have them have a say in t heir community. I mean one of the most amazing programs I think they did was in code enforcement which wasn't really in my division at the time. But there was one neighborhood in Sulphur Springs and they had a lot of problems enforcing conversions of hou ses into duplexes. And it was just a nightmare for our code enforcement division to really enforce. And they ended up working with a neighborhood group where they became, not vigilantes, but they, if they saw something they would send it to us and we had s pecific details of what we needed done to, to get. And what kind of information they had to provide to us. So it wasn't, you know, just any drive by that they thought somebody was you know, converting something just because there were a couple of cars in t he driveway. They, they actually had specific information that they worked with them on. And they ended up you know really ultimately making some awareness and fixing the problem. And you know it was kind of like the ultimate public/private partnership. And also in enforcement they did something like they, they tried the docket for code enforcement cases were so long. And it took so long to get them through because of state law that they used the neighborhood group as kind of the first, the first line of defense or offense. And what they would do was, thinking they could get from peer pressure, better results, the neighborhood group sent out a little postcard and said, hi, you know we noticed, we, we your neighbors noticed that you have too many tires pile d up in the back of your house. We would love for you to move it. And you know it was like, honey getting more than a hammer and they went ahead and, I don't know what the percentage was, but it was an incredibly high percentage rate when their neighborhoo ds asked them to clean it up versus when the city had asked them to clean it up. So there were a lot of you know, neighborhood initiatives that, that again, I think she changed the culture of the whole city. RK: Is it true that one component of the ne ighborhood initiative was to write a new element to the comprehensive plan that focused on neighborhoods? SS: Yes. RK: Can you talk a little about that? SS: Yeah. That, that was in a way I think it was kind of more of a statement than whether it was really enforceable. But I, again I think it was a culture change to show the importance of neighborhoods and that the, the city and a comprehensive plan really is more than, in Florida there were functional elements. And in a lot of cases I think rather th an doing like a master plan or a neighborhood plan for each area, because there were like fifty or sixty neighborhoods, they tried to say from a policy perspective, this is what's important in our city, and this is how we want neighborhoods to be you know, respected, and, and involved. And so it was really a, really short policy document, but\n13 laid out what the philosophy was, and the Council actually adopted it. Now again, I haven't paid attention so I'm not sure how that's survived. RK: Can I, I'd like t o ask a couple of other questions that are more general regarding the mayor, Mayor Freedman. One can you characterize what you think was kind of her leadership style? SS: Well she was certainly a leader, and she had, she had things she wanted to accompli sh. And she you know, she wanted to improve the city on a variety of levels. And she was, I mean she functioned more like a city manager more so than other I mean mayor Martinez did, did too, he was I thought, a good manager as well. But so she wasn't like too hands on, but, but she was more hands on than I think most mayors would be. She had some ideas of her own of how to, you know, if she had, she had a vision for OK I want to change X. Sometimes she had some ideas on her own, and sometimes she, she didn 't. But she was very open to new ideas. People could come to her on something she hadn't even thought of and say, hey we think we can fix this, or we want to do this better, what do you think? She was, you know, very open to it and very good about asking t he right questions. OK, who would this affect? What are the downsides? What are the positives? What would it take to do it? But definitely, definitely action oriented and, and was a leader in terms of, she had, she had a vision of, of what she wanted. What she wanted changed or what she wanted the city to be like. And you know she empowered everybody to kind of come up with ideas and then let us run with it. And, and frankly after working in other communities you kind of think everyplace is like that until you work elsewhere. And, and I just wrote Bob Harrell an email recently saying how spoiled we were that you know we were able to do so many different, you know really neat and different things and actually accomplish so many things. And we did so many stat e of the art things in some ways. But you didn't realize that while you were doing it that the rest of the world wasn't at your same level. And now that I've worked in other places and realize that, first of all you need a leader like that who's willing to make change. And you know you need somebody to, to help facilitate that through. And she was really, really very good at that. SS: Did she have a top staff person or a couple of top staff people that tried to follow through on implementation and make su re the changes actually reached the people? SS: I think, I think she had a really good senior management team, you know with the exception of you know maybe one or two people everybody really was a team player. She did have a Chief of Staff but she didn' t rely solely on him. She really dealt with the department head. You know she was, she was pretty open. And, and unfortunately I don't think the perception, the public perception of her was that way but she was you know I could go up there and say I would like to talk to her, even, even before I became an assistant director, if I, at the manager level. And you know, admittedly because I, not many managers probably had that access, but because I did zoning things and they were more visible but I could go up there and tell her assistant, you know, I need an appointment on X, and you know she would, you know find a time. It might not have been for a week, but you know, it, it wasn't that I didn't have access to her. And I think\n14 that she was very accessible. You know and always, again made you feel like if you had a new idea that it wasn't crazy. You know, may not go with it, but, but it, she, she didn't make you feel you know, stupid for asking. RK: And I have one final question. I know you have another meetin g in about three minutes SS: No, you're OK for now. RK: Oh, OK. I, well in that case I have two questions. [Susan laughs] Was there, was there any major was there a significant change in the zoning code during the time that you were with the Freedman ad ministration? SS: There was a I'm trying to think of major when I got there, that was before her there was one major one when I got there. There were, I wouldn't call it major. I think what we did was, at, at some point, and I frankly can't remember if it was at the end of Martinez or during her administration as a result of the comprehensive plan. Which I, I'm trying to think, was the late 80s. I think in the late 80s they, we adopted a comprehensive plan and then you had a year basically to rezone th e, rezone properties to conform to the plan. And at, that took over a year and we did it by quadrant. So that kind of was when this big new zoning code came into affect. RK: I see. SS: After that, and I'm, I frankly don't think it was under her administr ation. RK: OK SS: but it might have overlapped. RK: OK. SS: Now, we, we did an annual review of the zoning code and if we, and we literally kept a running list of you know, problems over the years that we thought needed to be changed, or and Council would tell us. And you know, some people could go to the Council and say, hey I want this on the list for the next revision. And the good news about that was they didn't, they weren't always changing it like some places do. And, but they did, you know th ey did take a good look at it every year. And we made, you know, the necessary changes. RK: Was this sometimes in response to or related to what you were speaking about, about before to neighborhood groups? SS: Yeah, sometimes it was related to neighbor hood groups. Sometimes it was, you know developers came, or somebody came in and they would, had some new use that you know, as a result of technology, like even cell towers, you know.\n15 RK: Yes. SS: At some point, while I was there they invented cell tow ers and we had to deal with them and add them to the zoning code. Or, you know, some other kind of new use that resulted from a new technology or something. Sometimes it was that, sometimes it was as mundane as a new kind of fencing that you know, wasn't r ecognized or something like that. RK: Now this is my final question. And you were very familiar with, I think, the Freedman administration, not just in terms of the job you did but more generally. And if one tries to place the administration kind of his torically you have Martinez before and Greco after, but you had, you know a longer period obviously. And you ask what the legacy of the Freedman administration might be in, you know, any sphere whatsoever, does anything come to mind in particular that you think people thirty years from now might be looking at or speaking about? SS: Well I do think that the downtown was the, was a huge one. And even though maybe not, not as much downtown development occurred during that time, the fact that she got these zo ning districts and better design of them, you know, with this Blue Ribbon Committee. That she came in and saw that as one of her first priorities. And those, that effort set the tone and the look of downtown I think for, you know, decades to come. And I think the obviously the other thing was both her housing programs. The city had housing staff but they really didn't do very much until she came on board and people came with her, to her with ideas of you know, we could do this and we could do that. And, a nd she let them run with it. And you know ended up getting national attention for that. And also the neighborhood programs. You know at one point they packaged the neighborhood programs and there were forty different neighborhood related programs that had been initiated. I think all virtually her, during her administration. And the other is, you know I do think that the, it, what it's called a construction services center, but you know, the, the permitting center and, and the way it's organized. I think t hat again, people really look to that I think of how to, how to do it right. And you know, although anybody who goes to, through a regulatory process is never happy, they you know, they really are, have always been one step ahead I think of everybody else. And you know, have, have really done a good job at that. There's one other thing too that I forgot other than the downtown and I forgot what it was. RK: Well you've done a good job of remembering a lot though over the last hour, and I greatly appreciat e your time. I know how busy you are in your new job. Maybe you should tell people where you are.\n16 SS: I'm in Leesburg, Virginia, which is a rapidly growing suburb of Washington, DC. And last year was, it was, it's the county seat of what last year the cen sus said was the fastest growing county in the country. And we used to think, in Florida we thought 2% a year, or 4% a year of growth was a big deal. Here they have 10%.... RK: Oh boy. SS: a year growth. So, in ten years, between the 1990 and the 2000 c ensus they doubled in size here, so. RK: So you have a busy job. SS: Yeah. RK: I really very much appreciate I very much appreciate your taking the time to talk. Thank you very, very much. SS: Thank you and let me know if you have any. [End Tape]",

Rotarians traveling to other clubs, both within their own country or around the world, often take banners to exchange with their hosts as a token of friendship. The Rotary International board, in recognising the popularity of the banner exchange, suggested that the design of these banners should be distinctive and expressive of the community and country of which the club is a part. It recommended that banners include pictures, slogans or designs which portray the territorial area of the club. Exchanging club banners is a very pleasant custom, a significant tradition of Rotary and serves as a tangible symbol of Rotary\u2019s international fellowship. FREE CALL: 1800 686 858 E: info@screengraphics.com.au www.screengraphics.com.au Exchanging Club Banners Gourmet golf in western Victoria The 36th annual tournament of the Australian Golfing Fellowship of Rotarians (AGFR) will be hosted in Hamilton, Vic, from April 7-11. Organisers of the event, the Rotary Club of Hamilton North, look forward to showcasing the beautiful Western District, its gourmet foods and wines. In addition to four days of golf, trips are planned to explore Hamilton, its history, renowned art gallery and botanical gardens. The social program during the week includes tours to the Coast, Grampians National Park, Mt. Gambier and the Blue Lake, and the Coonawarra Wine Region. The beauty of this tournament is that all golfers will play at the Hamilton Golf Club; the club rooms will be a hive of social activity. The Rotary Club of Hamilton North hopes to raise substantial funds for their chosen charities through business sponsorships. All golfing costs are born by the participants, who agree that there is excellent value to be had in such a great week.

        "raw_content": "There\u2019s a classic quality to this photojournalist\u2019s work that is unique \u2013 perhaps it\u2019s the Leica glass, the wide angle portraits or the grain of black and white film. Damaso\u2019s work has taken him around the world and his images take you along for the ride.\nCheck Damaso Reyes\u2019 photography online and friend him on Facebook.\nDR: I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York\nDR: I developed an interest in photography as a teenager. Having read National Geographic for several years I fell in love with the idea of becoming a photojournalist and began to teach myself technique from copies of the magazine Photographic. I eventually took a class in high school and began freelancing at that point. I went on to study photography at New York University\u2019s Tisch School of the Arts.\nDR: I\u2019ve used a wide range of equipment and techniques over the years. Now I almost exclusively use Leica rangefinder cameras with Kodak film. After using single lens reflex cameras for most of my career I feel in rangefinder cameras I have found the best tool to express my vision. I\u2019m primarily a photojournalist so I adhere to those values, namely interfering as little as possible with what I am trying to document. I want to serve as a window through which the viewer can witness what I am experiencing.\nSinging, Copyright Damaso Reyes\nDR: Chester Higgins Jr. of the New York Times has been a great friend and mentor. Dr. Deb Willis, chair of NYU\u2019s Department of Photography and Imagining, has also been incredibly helpful over the past few years.\nDR: Yes. That\u2019s the short answer. The long answer is the challenges that photographers of color face is much more covert than overt. It has a lot to do with how we see the world. Since most of us are outsiders in one way or another our vision can be threatening or at odds with the life experience of decision makers like editors who are very rarely people of color. The reason I became a photographer was to try to show people the way that I see the world. Apparently that is not what sells newspapers and magazines.\nDR: It happened when I was still in High school and started freelancing for the Amsterdam News here in New York. After I published a few pictures I thought to myself \u201cthat\u2019s easy!\u201d Of course I\u2019ve spent the last fifteen years learning otherwise. But I was able to achieve a lot very early in my career so perhaps I wasn\u2019t as realistic about the challenges involved as I should have been.\nThe industry has also changed a lot in the last fifteen years. But for me photography has always been more about pursuing a passion than getting a paycheck, which is a good thing as it turns out!\nBerlin, Copyright Damaso Reyes\nDR: I hope to serve as a bridge between people. I hope that my work can, in some small way, give voice to those who all too often find themselves marginalized and ignored by mainstream society. Personally I feel that as a photographer of color I have a special responsibility to help create a more just society.\nDR: It is the project I am working on right now, The Europeans, which is exploring how Europe is changing as the European Union expands. It is a tremendous challenge which has allowed me to grow as an artist and a person. I\u2019ve still got a long way to go but I feel like I have been able to capture some of what I set out to when I began on this road four years ago.\nDR: Patience! Photography is mostly about waiting, not shooting. Sometimes you\u2019re waiting for the light, other times for a grant to let you go and photograph. I have never been good at waiting but I have gotten a lot better at it over the years. I\u2019ve learned to think of my work not as a sprint but as a marathon.\nTags black and whiteBritishcontemporary photographydiversitydocumentaryinternationalmulticulturalphotojournalists\nPhotographer Interview: Clement Cooper Photographer Interivew: Brian Y.

I haven't let go of this dream yet and it doesn't hurt that my current position has me living only 20 minutes away from Disneyland....\n2) Work for Rabbi Shmuley Boteach - I didn't think there would be any sort of likelihood of this happening, but in the spring of my last year in rabbinical school, a position opened up in his organization and, lo and behold, I got an interview with Rabbi Shmuley! But I wasn't picked - I imagine that that was a smart decision: I probably wasn't ready for it yet. At least I hope I made a positive impression on him that he would think of hiring me down the road.\n3) Director for the Center for Modern Torah Leadership - After having spent my summer of 2006 in Boston for the Summer Beit Midrash of the CMTL with Rabbi Klapper, I not only grew to appreciate him and his intelligence, but also generally the thrust of his initiative. For over a dozen years, his Summer Beit Midrash existed as the only program that he did aside from teaching. However, he then decided to branch out and create the CMTL, which had the SBM as its cornerstone and has since had several summer conferences of educators. I know that Rabbi Klapper has a vision of publishing a journal as well as, perhaps, a year-long learning program. That would be awesome, although he would need someone to direct those activities to free him up to work on his scholarship. That would be me. And although I did my last year of rabbinical school's internship with the CMTL - including running a program for it - there would need to be funding for such a position. Drumming up that much money in this economy: not going to happen. I'm still keeping this one in mind, as long as Rabbi Klapper would hire me (and money suddenly appears, as well).\nAnyways, those are the three positions I had in mind but did not come to fruition. Ah well, I'm in sunny California, meeting lots of great people and working for the Jewish people :)\nLabels: CMTL, Disney, Rabbi Akiva, rabbinate\nSome Rabbinic Position Ideas as a Rabbinical Stude...",

        "raw_content": "We\u2019re thrilled to announce that SFU City Conversations will visit Downtown Farmers Market on Thursday, September 21st! This special edition of City Conversations takes place at 12:30 PM as part of SFU Market Day, an event to convene SFU students, staff, and the broader downtown community around a celebration of local food.\nLocally grown and produced food is fresher, often better tasting, and sometimes even more nutritious than produce that has been shipped from around the world. But what does it take to get this fresh local produce, meat and seafood to your table? Want to grow your own food but aren\u2019t sure how to begin? Wondering if our exceptional agricultural land is being used to its full potential? Interested in how Vancouver is protecting itself from international food disruption and increasing food prices?\nJoining us for the conversation is Richmond Councillor Harold Steves, co-founder of the Agricultural Land Reserve; and Lisa Giroday, co-founder of Victory Gardens. They will help us frame the issues, and then it\u2019s time for you to ask your questions, express your opinions, make your observations. It\u2019s a conversation!\nCity Conversations runs from 12:30 to 1:30, but we recommend showing up early to take in all the market has to offer and guarantee yourself a seat.\nFor more information: http://www.sfu.ca/publicsquare/upcoming-events/city-conversations/2017/sfu-maket-day.html",

        "raw_content": "Perceived Benefits and Barriers of Participation of Physical Therapy Students In Resource-Poor International Clinical Education\nPurpose : Studies assessing the impacts of international clinical education for medical students have shown that international clinical rotations (ICR) have positive impacts on student\u00d5s personal and professional development. However, little is known about the impacts of ICE on physical therapy (PT) students. This paper documents the potential benefits and perceived barriers of PT students participating in an ICR in a resource-poor cross-cultural setting.Description : Seven 3rd year physical therapy students (3 in year one, 4 in year two) participated in a 5-week ICR in Malawi, a resource-poor country in Africa. A PT faculty member from a US program accompanied the students for the first week in each rotation. A local Canadian-trained PT supervised the students\u00d5 ICR. The students provided PT to underserved children with moderate to severe special needs. The common diagnoses were cerebral palsy, post-cerebral malaria, post-meningitis and post-encephalitis. At the end of each clinical rotation, in order to identify perceived barriers and benefits of the ICR, the students completed a brief written survey with open-ended questions and participated in an in-depth, semi-structured interview using open-ended questions. The most commonly perceived barriers were language and communication. All students reported several benefits. The main themes were enhanced hands-on skills; creativity and confidence in working with limited resources; enhanced learning and knowledge; improved clinical decision making skills; and confidence working in a cross-cultural environment with varied levels of severity and disability.Summary of Use : Participation in this ICR has shown to have a positive impact on students\u00d5 professional and personal development. The primary benefits were hands-on skills and beyond. Students\u00d5 benefits from this model included enhanced hands-on skills, confidence working with limited resources, enhanced knowledge, skills and sense of community culture, and working in cross-cultural or resource-limited settings. This ICR model was unique with pro bono clinical service and community outreach centers to underserved children in a resource-poor environment. This model can be used to prepare students to work in resource-limited setting and enhance cross-cultural competency. Based on the survey, this model has increased students\u00d5 interest in further work in resource-limited cross culture settings.Importance to Members: This paper is relevant to all health professional students. The ICR experience in an underserved and resource-poor setting contributed to the students\u00d5 personal and professional development. The skills and knowledge gained during this clinical experience will be of great value. Given the current changes in the US health care system, greater socioeconomic demands and projected cultural diversity of our population, it is imperative that we provide health professional students including those in PT with opportunities that enhance their ability to practice in cross-cultural and resource-limited settings.\nAuthors: Brandy Schwarz, Yasser Salem, Howe Liu, Clayton Holmes, John K.

        "raw_content": "Novel drug shows promise against acute myeloid leukaemia\nResearchers have reported that an experimental peptide drug shows promise against the often-lethal cancer acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and describe how the drug works at the molecular level. The findings have led to a Phase I/II clinical trial for patients with advanced AML and advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), now underway at Montefiore Health System.\nIn preclinical studies, the experimental drug\u2013ALRN-6924\u2013tripled the median survival rate in an animal model of human AML (mice transplanted with human leukaemia cells) from 50 to about 150 days.\n\u201cThis is a very striking response,\u201d said study leader Dr Ulrich Steidl, Professor of cell biology and of medicine and the Diane and Arthur B. Belfer Faculty Scholar in Cancer Research at Einstein and Associate Chair for translational research in oncology at Montefiore. \u201cMost experimental drugs for leukaemia achieve an increase in survival of only a few days in these preclinical models. Even more importantly, ALRN-6924 effectively cured about 40 percent of the treated mice, meaning they were disease-free more than one year after treatment\u2013essentially a lifetime for a mouse.\u201d\nALRN-6924 was developed by Aileron Therapeutics Inc. to target p53, a protein that suppresses tumours but is inactivated in many forms of cancer including AML. The drug was designed to inhibit two naturally occurring proteins, MDMX and MDM2, whose overexpression inactivates p53, allowing cancer cells to multiply unchecked. Aileron turned to Dr Steidl, an AML expert, to test the drug\u2019s effectiveness in preclinical models of AML and to find out more about its mechanism of action.\nDr Steidl and his colleagues confirmed that ALRN-6924 targets both MDMX and MDM2, blocking their interaction with p53 in AML cells. That effect was seen in both more mature AML cells and the immature stem cells that produce them. \u201cThis is important,\u201d said Dr Steidl, \u201cbecause AML is driven by stem cells\u2013and if you don\u2019t target stem cells, the disease will come back very quickly.\u201d\nThose same molecular changes were observed in blood cells of an AML patient who was given the drug on a compassionate-use basis. \u201cThis test was not designed to assess the efficacy of the drug in humans\u2013that has to be done in a proper clinical trial,\u201d said Dr Steidl. \u201cOur goal was to determine whether it can hit the desired target in human cells in a clinical setting, which it did in this individual.\u201d\nALRN-6924 is a so-called stapled alpha-helical peptide, a promising new class of drugs whose helical structure is stabilized using hydrocarbon \u201cstaples.\u201d The stapling prevent the peptides from being degraded by enzymes before reaching their intended target, a fate that often befalls conventional peptide drugs. ALRN-6924 is the first stapled peptide therapeutic to be tested in patients.",

Although technically a subgroup of the Cumbrian dialect, Barrovian is distinct in having more in common with the Lancashire dialect and influences of immigrant groups from across the northern regions of the British Isles.\nBarrovian is also used as a Demonym for inhabitants of Barrow.\n3 Phrases and lexis\n4 Barrovian as a demonym\n6 Notable speakers\nUp until the mid-19th century Barrow was nothing but a cluster of small villages with the Cumbrian dialect prevailing throughout, huge growth however occurred between 1860 and 1880 spurred on by the introduction of the railway to the Furness peninsula and the rapidly expanding steel and jute works.[1] Barrow also became a major shipbuilding centre in the early 20th century. From a few thousand to 70,000 residents in under half a century, the majority of these were immigrants to the town drawn by the burgeoning industries.[1] Large influxes came from elsewhere in Lancashire, Ireland (especially the counties of Antrim and Tyrone) and Scotland, with existing shipbuilding regions such as the Clyde and Tyneside providing a significant percentage of migrants in the early to mid-20th century. During the 1890s, one in six of the local population had been born in Ireland or Scotland.[2][3] Barrow became a melting pot of accents and dialects and although it remains primarily Cumbria/Lancashire-orientated has strong influences from a wide geographical area.\nNumerous place names in Barrow are of Old Norse and Celtic origin. Although they have long been Anglicised, many have had their pronunciation skewed over time by the aforementioned immigrant groups. One notable example being the suburbs of Roose which was settled by Cornish tin miners and is now pronounced locally with a 'z' in place of the 's'. The name Furness is also pronounced to sound like 'furnace'.\nThis section needs attention from an expert in Linguistics. The specific problem is: Casual and vague terminology resulting in confusing statements. See the talk page for details. WikiProject Linguistics may be able to help recruit an expert. (March 2017)\nA 2005 study of the Barrovian dialect by the British Library found a number of traits common amongst the populace [citation needed]. Most of the observations made are similar to other Northern English dialects with the sound /\u028c/ (as in 'up' or 'mother') being pronounced /\u028a/ (as in 'good' or 'put').[clarification needed] Other observations made included frequent T-glottalization on last letters and frequent intervocalic and syllable initial T-glottaling. In Plain English this can be described as the letter 't' being dropped from the middle or end of words.[4] Examples of this include the word 'cart' (/k\u0251rt/) being pronounced as 'car' (/k\u0251r\u0294/), with a Glottal stop after the letter 'r'. Alternatively the number 'twenty' (/tw\u025bnty/) could be pronounced 'twen-y' (/tw\u025bn\u0294y/).[4] The same study also found frequent G-dropping, H-dropping and Th-fronting.[4] Respective examples of these phonetics include: 'freezing, exciting, sleeping' being pronounced 'freezin, excitin, sleepin' (where G-dropping speakers pronounce the -ing syllable as [\u026an], while non-G-dropping speakers have /\u026a\u014b/); 'appy (/h\u00e6py/), hour (/ha\u028a.w\u0259r/), have (/h\u00e6v)' being pronounced 'appy (/\u00e6py/), our (/a\u028a.w\u0259r/), ave (/\u00e6v)' with removal of the front '/h/' [4]; and 'through (/\u03b8ru/), thought (/\u03b8\u0254rt), three (/\u03b8ri/)' being prononced as 'rough (/fru/), frought (/fr\u0254rt/), free (/fri/)'.[4]\nPronunciation of words ending with the sound 'ure' (/\u02c8u:r/) are another distinct indicator of the Barrovian dialect.[5] Some words drop the /u:/ completely and convert the 're' (/r/) to 'er' (/\u0259r/), Examples of this include the word 'brochure' being pronounced 'broch-er' (/\u02c8bro\u028a.\u0283\u0259r/), 'texture' as 'text-er' (/\u02c8t\u025bkst.\u0259r/) and 'figure' as 'fig-er' (/\u02c8f\u026ag.\u0259r/). Alternatively many words containing /\u02c8u:r/ are pronounced /u:.\u0259r/ (e.g. in the Barrovian dialect 'moor' rhymes with 'truer'). Further examples being: 'cure' (/\u02c8kj\u028a\u0259r/) pronounced 'kyou-er' (/\u02c8kju:\u0259r/) , 'tour' (/t\u028a\u0259r/) as 'too-er' (\u02c8tu:\u0259r), 'mature' as 'ma-chou-er' (/\u02c8m\u00e6.\u02c8tju:\u0259r/) and 'secure' as 'sec-you-er' (/s\u025bk.\u02c8ju:\u0259r/). There is no convention for which words drop the letter 'u' and which emphasise it, with little correlation between word length and pronunciation.\nPhrases and lexis[edit]\nThe words 'dead' and 'well' are often used in conversation to mean 'very' or make a strong point, for example \"it was well good\", or \"it was dead bad\".[4] The word 'like' is frequently used with little meaning, as is the term 'and that' which roughly translates to the use of the term 'etc.' in a spoken conversation. For example, \"I bought crisps and biscuits and that\".[4] The list below contains common words and daily greetings in Standard English (in bold) and their Barrovian equivalent (in italics), and examples of use in a sentence or phrase (in parentheses).[4]\nI - a (a went out last night)\nAnything - aught/owt\nBarrow - Barra\nClothes - clobber\nDrunk - ratted, off your head, recked\nGoing on a trip or walk - going on a bod\nHello - iya\nHim/Her - im/er\nHere you go - e are\nHow are you - y'orite\nLater - after\nMe - us (leave us alone)\nMoody - mardy\nMother - mam\nNothing - nowt\nPlaying truant - jigging\nSaw - sin (I sin her yesterday in town)\nSomething - summat\nTrousers - kecks, pants\nUnfair - tight\nWhere are you? - where y'at?\nWhere are you going? - where y'off?\nWe - us (us two)\nBarrovian as a demonym[edit]\n'Barrovian' is also used to refer to an individual hailing from Barrow[6] . For some the term has become synonymous with local football team Barrow A.F.C.. The term 'Old Barrovian' was used in the 20th century to refer to alumni of the Barrow Boy and Girl Grammar Schools [7], which through a complicated history has become Furness Academy.\nOutside of North West England, Barrovian is relatively unknown in comparison to more widespread dialects. A poll conducted by Travelodge in 2014 resulted in Barrovian being placed sixth 'least favourite' of regional accents in the UK behind Essex, Brummie, Cockney, Belfast and Highland respectively.[8]\nNotable speakers[edit]\nMain article: List of people from Barrow-in-Furness\nLancashire dialect and accent\n^ a b \"History of Barrow-in-Furness\".

        "raw_content": "Knowledge of English in the EU\nKnowledge of English as a foreign and second language in the EU member states (plus Turkey), in per cent of the adult population (over the age of 14), 2005. Data taken from an EU survey.[1]\nThe English language in Europe, as a native language, is mainly spoken in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Outside of these states, it has a special status in the Crown dependencies (Isle of Man, Jersey and Guernsey), Gibraltar (one of the British Overseas Territories) and Malta. In the Kingdom of the Netherlands, English has an official status as a regional language on the isles of Saba and Sint Eustatius (located in the Caribbean). In other parts of Europe, English is spoken mainly by those who have learnt it as a second language, but also, to a lesser extent, natively by some expatriates from some countries in the English-speaking world.\nThe English language is the de facto official language of England, the sole official language of Gibraltar and one of the official languages of the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Malta, the Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey and the European Union.\nThe United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland make a \"European anglosphere\" with an area of about 316,000 km\u00b2 and a population of over 71 million.\nAccording to a survey published in 2006, 13% of EU citizens speak English as their native language. Another 38% of EU citizens state that they have sufficient skills in English to have a conversation, so the total reach of English in the EU is 51%.[1]\nEnglish is descended from the language spoken by the Germanic tribes of the German Bight along the southern coast of the North Sea, the Angles, Saxons, Frisians and Jutes. According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, around 449 AD, Vortigern, King of the Britons, issued an invitation to the \"Angle kin\" (Angles, led by Hengest and Horsa), to help him against the Picts. In return, the Angles were granted lands in the southeast. Further aid was sought, and in response \"came men of Ald Seaxum of Anglum of Iotum\" (Saxons, Angles and Jutes). The Chronicle documents the subsequent influx of settlers who eventually established seven kingdoms: Northumbria, Mercia, East Anglia, Kent, Essex, Sussex and Wessex.\nThese Germanic invaders dominated the original Celtic-speaking inhabitants. The dialects spoken by these invaders formed what would be called Old English, which was also strongly influenced by yet another Germanic language, Old East Norse, spoken by Danish Viking invaders who settled mainly in the North-East. English, England and East Anglia are derived from words referring to the Angles: Englisc, Angelcynn and Englaland.\nFor 300 years following the Norman Conquest in 1066, the Anglo-Norman language was the language of administration and few Kings of England spoke English. A large number of French words were assimilated into Old English, which lost most of its inflections, the result being Middle English. Around the year 1500, the Great Vowel Shift marked the transformation of Middle English into Modern English.\nThe most famous surviving work from Old English is Beowulf, and from Middle English is Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales.\nThe rise of Modern English began around the fifteenth century, with Early Modern English reaching its literary pinnacle at the time of William Shakespeare. Some scholars divide early Modern English and late Modern English at around 1800, in concert with British conquest of much of the rest of the world, as the influence of native languages affected English enormously.\n1 Classification and related languages\n2 English in Britain and Ireland\n2.5 Isle of Man\n3 English in other British or formerly British territories\n3.1 Channel Islands\n5 English as lingua franca\nClassification and related languages[edit]\nEnglish belongs to the western sub-branch of the Germanic branch of the Indo-European family of languages. The closest undoubted living relatives of English are Scots and the Frisian languages. West Frisian language is spoken by approximately half a million people in the Dutch province of Friesland (Frysl\u00e2n). Saterland Frisian language is spoken in nearby areas of Germany. North Frisian language is spoken on a few islands in the North Sea. While native English speakers are generally able to read Scots, except for the odd unfamiliar word, Frisian is largely unintelligible (though it was much closer to modern English's predecessors, Middle English and especially Old English).\nAfter Scots and Frisian, the next closest relative is modern Low German of the eastern Netherlands and northern Germany, which was the old homeland of the Anglo-Saxon invaders of Britain. Other less closely related living languages include Dutch, German, and the Scandinavian languages (which do not include Finnish). Many French words are also intelligible to an English speaker, as English absorbed a tremendous amount of vocabulary from the Norman language after the Norman conquest and from French in later centuries; as a result, a substantial proportion of English vocabulary is very close to the French, with some slight spelling differences (word endings, use of old French spellings, etc.) and some occasional lapses in meaning.\nEnglish in Britain and Ireland[edit]\nMain articles: Languages of Wales and Welsh English\nIn 1282 Edward I of England defeated Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Wales's last independent prince, in battle. Edward followed the practice used by his Norman predecessors in their subjugation of the English, and constructed a series of great stone castles in order to control Wales, thus preventing further military action against England by the Welsh. With \u2018English\u2019 political control at this time came Anglo-Norman customs and language; English did not displace Welsh as the majority language of the Welsh people until the anti Welsh language campaigns, which began towards the end of the 19th century (54% spoke Welsh in 1891; see Welsh language). The Welsh language is currently spoken by about one-fifth of the population. It has been enjoying support from the authorities for some decades, resulting in a revival, and is in a healthy position in many parts of Wales.\nMain articles: Languages of Ireland and Hiberno-English\nThe second English dominion was Ireland. With the arrival of the Normans in Ireland in 1169, King Henry II of England gained Irish lands and the fealty of many native Gaelic nobles. By the 14th century, however, English rule was largely limited to the area around Dublin known as the Pale. English influence on the country waned during this period to the point that the English-dominated Parliament was driven to legislate that any Irish of English descent must speak English (requiring those that did not know English to learn it) through the Statutes of Kilkenny in 1367.\nEnglish rule expanded in the 16th century by the Tudor conquest of Ireland, leading the Gaelic order to collapse at the start of the 17th century. The Flight of the Earls in 1607 paved the way for the Plantation of Ulster and a deepening of the English language culture in Ireland. The Cromwellian Plantation and suppression of Catholicism, including both native Irish and the \"Old English\" (those of Anglo-Norman descent), further cemented English influence across the country.\nAs the centuries passed and the social conditions in Ireland deteriorated, culminating in the Great Irish Famine, Irish parents didn't speak Irish to their children as they knew that the children might have to emigrate and Irish would be of no use outside the home country, in Britain, the United States, Australia or Canada. In addition, the introduction of universal state education in the national schools from 1831 proved a powerful vector for the transmission of English as a home language, with the greatest retreat of the Irish language occurring in the period between 1850 and 1900.\nBy the 20th century, Ireland had a centuries-old history of diglossia. English was the prestige language while the Irish language was associated with poverty and disfranchisement. Accordingly, some Irish people who spoke both Irish and English refrained from speaking to their children in Irish, or, in extreme cases, feigned the inability to speak Irish themselves. Despite state support for the Irish language in the Irish Free State (later the Republic of Ireland) after independence, Irish continued to retreat, the economic marginality of many Irish-speaking areas (see Gaeltacht) being a primary factor. For this reason Irish is spoken as a mother tongue by only a very small number of people on the island of Ireland. Irish has been a compulsory subject in schools in the Republic since the 1920s and proficiency in Irish was until the mid-1980s required for all government jobs.\nIt may be noted, however, that certain words (especially those germane to political and civic life) in Irish remain features of Irish life and are rarely, if ever, translated into English. These include the names of legislative bodies (such as D\u00e1il \u00c9ireann and Seanad \u00c9ireann), government positions such as Taoiseach and T\u00e1naiste, of the elected representative(s) in the D\u00e1il (Teachta D\u00e1la), and political parties (such as Fianna F\u00e1il and Fine Gael). Ireland's police force, the Garda S\u00edoch\u00e1na, are referred to as \"the Garda\u00ed\", or \"the Guards\" for short. Irish appears on government forms, euro-currency, and postage stamps, in traditional music and in media promoting folk culture. Irish placenames are still common for houses, streets, villages, and geographic features, especially the thousands of townlands. But with these important exceptions, and despite the presence of Irish loan words in Hiberno-English, Ireland is today largely an English-speaking country. Fluent or native Irish speakers are a minority in the most of the country, with Irish remaining as a vernacular mainly in the relatively small Gaeltacht regions, and most Irish speakers also have fluent English.\nAt the time of partition, English had become the first language of the vast majority in Northern Ireland. It had small elderly Irish-speaking populations in the Sperrin Mountains as well as in the northern Glens of Antrim and Rathlin Island. There were also pockets of Irish speakers in the southernmost part of County Armagh. All of these Irish speakers were bilingual and chose to speak English to their children, and thus these areas of Northern Ireland are now entirely English-speaking. However, in the 2000s a Gaeltacht Quarter was established in Belfast to drive inward investment as a response to a notable level of public interest in learning Irish and the expansion of Irish-medium education (predominantly attended by children whose home language is English) since the 1970s. In recent decades, some Nationalists in Northern Ireland have used it as a means of promoting an Irish identity. However, the amount of interest from Unionists remains low, particularly since the 1960s. About 165,000 people in Northern Ireland have some knowledge of Irish. Ability varies; 64,847 people stated they could understand, speak, read and write Irish in the 2011 UK census, the majority of whom have learnt it as a second language. Otherwise, except for place names and folk music, English is effectively the sole language of Northern Ireland. The Good Friday Agreement specifically acknowledges the position both of Irish and of Ulster Scots in the Republic of Ireland and in Northern Ireland.\nMain articles: Languages of Scotland and Scottish English\nAnglic speakers were actually established in Lothian by the 7th century,[citation needed] but remained confined there, and indeed contracted slightly to the advance of the Gaelic language. However, during the 12th and 13th centuries, Norman landowners and their retainers, were invited to settle by the king. It is probable that many of their retainers spoke a northern form of Middle English, although probably French was more common. Most of the evidence suggests that English spread into Scotland via the burgh, proto-urban institutions which were first established by King David I.[citation needed] Incoming burghers were mainly English (especially from Northumbria, and the Earldom of Huntingdon), Flemish and French. Although the military aristocracy employed French and Gaelic, these small urban communities appear to have been using English as something more than a lingua franca by the end of the 13th century.[citation needed] English appeared in Scotland for the first time in literary form in the mid-14th century, when its form unsurprisingly differed little from other northern English dialects. As a consequence of the outcome of the Wars of Independence though, the English of Lothian who lived under the King of Scots had to accept Scottish identity. The growth in prestige of English in the 14th century, and the complementary decline of French in Scotland, made English the prestige language of most of eastern Scotland.\nThus, from the end of the 14th century, and certainly by the end of the 15th century, Scotland began to show a split into two cultural areas \u2013 the mainly English or Scots Lowlands, and the mainly Gaelic-speaking Highlands (which then could be thought to include Galloway and Carrick; see Galwegian Gaelic). This caused divisions in the country where the Lowlands remained, historically, more influenced by the English to the south: the Lowlands lay more open to attack by invading armies from the south and absorbed English influence through their proximity to and their trading relations with their southern neighbours.\nIn 1603 the Scottish King James VI inherited the throne of England, and became James I of England. James moved to London and only returned once to Scotland. By the time of James VI's accession to the English throne the old Scottish Court and Parliament spoke Scots. Scots developed from the Anglian spoken in the Northumbrian kingdom of Bernicia, which in the 6th century conquered the Brittonic kingdom of Gododdin and renamed its capital of Din Eidyn to Edinburgh (see the etymology of Edinburgh). Scots continues to heavily influence the spoken English of the Scottish people today. It is much more similar to dialects in the north of England than to 'British' English, even today. The introduction of King James Version of the Bible into Scottish churches also was a blow to the Scots language, since it used Southern English forms.\nIn 1707 the Scottish and English Parliaments signed a Treaty of Union. Implementing the treaty involved dissolving both the English and the Scottish Parliaments, and transferring all their powers to a new Parliament in London which then became the British Parliament. A customs and currency union also took place. With this, Scotland's position was consolidated within the United Kingdom.\nToday, almost all residents of Scotland speak English, although many speak various dialects of Scots which differ markedly from Scottish Standard English. Approximately 2% of the population use Scottish Gaelic as their language of everyday use, primarily in the northern and western regions of the country. Virtually all Scottish Gaelic speakers also speak fluent English.\nThe Isle of Man is a Crown Dependency. English and Manx Gaelic are the two official languages. Because so few speak Manx as a first language, all inhabitants of the Isle of Man speak English.\nEnglish in other British or formerly British territories[edit]\nThe bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey are two Crown Dependencies. Besides English, some (very few) inhabitants of these islands speak regional languages[citation needed], or those related to French (such as J\u00e8rriais, Dg\u00e8rn\u00e9siais and Sercquiais).\nAll inhabitants of the Channel Islands speak English.\nGibraltar has been a British overseas territory since an Anglo-Dutch force led by Sir George Rooke seized \"The Rock\" in 1704 and Spain ceded the territory in perpetuity to Great Britain in the 1713 Treaty of Utrecht.\nThe small territories Gibraltarian inhabitants have a rich cultural heritage as a result of the mix of the neighbouring Andalusian population with immigrants from Great Britain, Genoa, Malta, Portugal, Morocco and India.\nThe vernacular language of the territory is Llanito. It consists of an eclectic mix of Andalusian Spanish and British English as well as languages such as Maltese, Portuguese, Italian of the Genoese variety and Haketia. Even though Andalusian Spanish is the main constituent of Llanito, it is also heavily influenced by British English, involving a certain amount of code-switching into English.\nHowever, English remains the sole official language, used by Government. It is also the medium of instruction in schools and most Gibraltarians who go on to tertiary education do so in the UK. Although Gibraltar receives Spanish television and radio, British television is also widely available via satellite. Whereas a century ago, most Gibraltarians were monolingual Spanish speakers, the majority is now naturally bilingual in English and Spanish.\nCyprus[edit]\nIn 1914 the Ottoman Empire declared war against the United Kingdom and France as part of the complex series of alliances that led to World War I. The British then annexed Cyprus on 2 November 1914 as part of the British Empire, making the Cypriots British subjects. On 5 November 1914 the British and the French declared war on the Ottoman Empire. Most of Cyprus gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1960, with the UK, Greece and Turkey retaining limited rights to intervene in internal affairs. Parts of the island were excluded from the territory of the new independent republic and remain under UK control. These zones are what are known as the Sovereign Base Areas or SBAs.\nThe British colonial history of Cyprus has left Cypriots with a good level of English but it is no longer an official language in either the Greek south side of the island, formally known as the Republic of Cyprus or the Turkish north, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus though English remains official in the SBAs. Since the effective partition of the island in 1974, Greek and Turkish Cypriots have had little opportunity or inclination to learn the others language, and are more likely to talk to each other in English. Older Turkish Cypriots who worked or lived with Greek Cypriots prior to partition often speak Greek quite fluently. Indeed, many Ottoman soldiers took Greek wives and were allowed to marry up to four.[2]\nEnglish is also commonly used on Cyprus to communicate with foreign visitors. The large number of British tourists (and other, largely Northern European ones, who use English as a lingua franca) who visit Cyprus regularly has contributed largely to the continued use of English on Cyprus, especially in its thriving tourist industry.\nAfter independence in the 1960s there was some attempt to encourage French, which was still the most important European language. This policy would have been in line with that in place in Greece at the time. Furthermore, in the 1960s, affluent French-speaking tourists (both from France and Lebanon) in terms of percentage were more important than today. Overall though, the French policy was indicative of a desire to distance Cyprus from the former British colonial power, against which a bitter war of independence had recently been fought and won.\nHowever, knowledge of English is helped by the large Cypriot migrant communities in the UK and Australia, leading to diffusion of culture and language back to their country of origin, and negative sentiments towards the UK have waned or disappeared. There is now a large British expatriate population, in addition to the British military presence in the Sovereign Base Areas, as well as the UN buffer zone, whose peacekeepers usually also use English as a lingua franca. All of the above maintains an English-speaking presence on the island.\nMain articles: Languages of Malta and Maltenglish\nIn 1814, Malta became part of the British Empire, under the terms of the Treaty of Vienna. Prior to the arrival of the British, the language of the educated Maltese elite had been Italian, and all legal statutes, taxation, education and clerical discourses were conducted either in Italian or in Latin.\nHowever, this was increasingly downgraded by the increased use of English. The British began scripting and codifying Maltese \u2013 hitherto an unscripted vernacular \u2013 as a language in or around 1868. From this point on, the Maltese language gradually gained currency as the main language on the islands, its grammars and conventions evolving in a mix between Italian, Arabic and English.\nBetween the 1870s and 1930s, Malta had three official languages, Italian, Maltese and English, but in 1934, English and Maltese were declared the sole official languages. The British associated Italian with the Benito Mussolini regime in Italy, which had made territorial claims on the islands, although the use of Italian by nationalists was more out of cultural affinities with Italy than any sympathy with Italian Fascism. With the outbreak of World War II, the Maltese lost their sense of fraternity with the Italian world, and there was a decline in Italian spoken in Malta.[citation needed]\nEnglish remains an official language in Malta, but since independence in 1964, the country's cultural and commercial links with Italy have strengthened, owing to proximity. Italian television is widely received in Malta and is highly popular.\nThere are also pockets of native English speakers to be found throughout Europe, such as in southern Spain, France, the Algarve in Portugal, as well as numerous US and British military bases in Germany. There are communities of native English speakers in some European cities aside from the cities of the UK and Ireland, e.g., Amsterdam, Berlin, Brussels, Barcelona, Copenhagen, Paris, Athens, Vienna, Prague, Gothenburg, Helsinki, Stockholm, and Rome.\nSectors of tourism, publishing, finance, computers and related industries rely heavily on English due to Anglophone trade ties. Air traffic control and shipping movements are almost all conducted in English.[citation needed]\nIn areas of Europe where English is not the first language, there are many examples of the mandated primacy of English: for example, in many European companies, such as Airbus, Ford[clarification needed], G.M., Philips, Renault[citation needed], Volvo, etc. have designated English to be the language of communication for their senior management, and many universities are offering education in English. The language is also a required subject in most European countries.[3] Thus, the percentage of English speakers is expected to rise.\nEnglish as lingua franca[edit]\nSee also: Languages of the European Union\nEnglish is the most commonly spoken foreign language in 19 out of 25 European Union countries (excluding the UK and Ireland)[4] In the EU25, working knowledge of English as a foreign language is clearly leading at 38%, followed by German and French (at 14% each), Russian and Spanish (at 6% each), and Italian (3%).[5] \"Very good\" knowledge of English is particularly high in Malta (52%), Denmark (44%), Cyprus (42%) and Sweden (40%). Working knowledge varies a lot between European countries. It is very high in Malta, Cyprus and Denmark but low in Russia, Spain (12%), Hungary (14%) and Slovakia (14%). On average in 2012, 38% of citizens of the European Union (excluding the United Kingdom and Ireland) stated that they have sufficient knowledge of English to have a conversation in this language.[6]\nEnglish has become the preeminent second language of Europe in the absence of any colonial history or diaspora, but rather as a concerted effort to increase fluency in English by Europeans since the Second World War. English has become the most useful language to connect different language groups in Europe. The impact of Brexit on EU language policy remains to be seen, but it is possible that the EU, in retaining English as a key working language without the dominant presence of British English speakers, would claim ownership over its own dialect of English and develop it for its own needs.[7]\n^ a b Europeans and their Languages (2006)\n^ The Turnstone: A Doctor's Story page 216\n^ \"English dominates EU language curricula, study finds\". 2008-11-24.\n^ Europeans and their Languages. \"Special Eurobarometer 386\" of the European Commission (2012)[1], p. 21\n^ including native speakers, the figures are: English 38%, German 14%, French 14%, Spanish 6%, Russian 6%, Italian 3%.

        "raw_content": "Daejeon: Environmental Capital of Asia\n[Commentary] On how Korea can lead the way in essential technologies\nJung-Hoon Han and Emanuel Pastreich (internews) Print Article\nNo one would expect that it would be Daejeon, of all cities, that would take a leading role in adopting policies to reduce the consumption of energy, mitigate pollution and implement aggressive recycling policies, but it is easy to see that because Daejeon is blessed with such remarkable scientific resources, it is poised to become the environmental capital of Korea and serve, eventually, as a model for all cities in East Asia that are now engaged in the battle to rid themselves of the specter of environmental degradation and the addiction to imported oil.\nThe first step towards this goal is simple: a contest for elementary school children asking for an answer to this question: \"What is the best way for Daejeon to reduce its use of energy and reduce pollution?\" The winner will be given a scholarship for university. The essays will be published in all of the newspapers. And it will be made clear that freedom from oil and pollution is critical to our city's future.\nThe next step for us will be a careful survey of all the technologies that have been developed in Daejeon and research underway at universities or government research centers that is relevant to energy conservation and pollution reduction. The most valuable and practical technologies and strategies will be identified, analyzed and a plan put forth for their application in Daejeon. That process will require considerable imagination, as the applications of technologies being developed to the reduction of energy consumption or elimination of pollution may not be immediately obvious. For example, technologies developed at the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials or Korea Aerospace Research Institute may allow us to build highly efficient electric bikes that will reduce automobile traffic.\nDaejeon will not only be a center for research, it will become a testing ground for the applications of the new technologies developed here. Experimental trains with minimum emissions and maximum efficiency will be built using special computer coordinated tracks. New cutting-edge heating systems will be subject to large-scale testing in Daejeon to see whether we can cut down inefficiency. Space-age insulation materials will be added to all new housing to bring down heat loss, and the next generation of solar cells will be seen first in Daejeon.\nDaejeon will rapidly become a showroom for advanced energy and pollution technologies available nowhere else. We can expect global attention and increased interest in the region. Moreover, Daejeon can become a leader in environmental technologies as a result: a field that promises to grow exponentially as the environmental problems of China, India and the developing world are confronted over the next decade.\nWe should think of this effort as equivalent of the plan to put a man on the moon. We will declare that Daejeon will be the greenest city in Asia in 8 years and will cut its energy use and pollution emissions by half in spite of anticipated growth. We will then have a clear, and difficult goal. We can then focus on using every technology that we have at hand to realize that ultimate goal.\nLet us consider the concrete steps we should take:\nWe should conduct a survey of technologies with applications to reducing energy consumption and pollution.\nTechnologies that reduce emissions; technologies that reduce energy waste; technologies that insolate homes; technologies that generate energy cheaply and cleanly; technologies for collecting and processing garbage; technologies for reducing garbage in the first place; technologies for making transportation more efficient; technologies for cleaning up pollution, etc.\nWe can then identify which of those technologies can be applied effectively in Daejeon as part of an experimental run before global application. We should consider which technologies can be readily applied in China and India, but at the same time, we should also aim for a global standard, undertaking projects without precedent. Daejeon will become the center in Asia for environmental technologies.\nEstablishment of a center for environmental issues in Daejeon that will coordinate the development and implication of these technologies.\nIdentify companies or organizations that can cheaply and effectively produce and distribute these new technologies in Daejeon.\nPromote policies and habits that reduce energy consumption and eliminate pollution in Daejeon.\nTechnologies related to the environment will be immensely valuable in the years ahead. If Daejeon leads the way, we can become a center for the world economy over the next 15 years.\nJung-Hoon Han, Ph.D., Senior Researcher, National Fusion Research Institute\nEmanuel Pastreich, Ph.D., Associate Professor, SolBridge International Business School, Woosong University",

        "raw_content": "Named after and headquartered at the acclaimed New York City venue (Le) Poisson Rouge, Ensemble LPR is an assemblage of some of New York\u2019s finest musicians. In 2008 LPR changed the classical music landscape, creating a new, accessible environment in which to experience art music, and in doing so expanded classical and new music listenership. Le Poisson Rouge Co-Founder David Handler brings this same ethos to Ensemble LPR, of which he is Founding Artistic and Executive Director.\nEnsemble LPR personifies the venue\u2019s commitment to aesthetic diversity and artistic excellence with an eclectic spectrum of music\u2014from works by the finest living composers, to compelling interpretations of the standard repertoire. The group has worked with esteemed classical musicians, conductors, and composers, including Lara St. John, Taka Kigawa, Simone Dinnerstein, Jennifer Koh, Fred Sherry, Ursula Oppens, Daniel Hope, Andr\u00e9 de Ridder, Christopher Rountree, Max Richter, and Timo Andres, as well as prominent artists from non-classical backgrounds such as Johnny Greenwood (Radiohead), David Longstreth (Dirty Projectors), Bryce Dessner (The National), Oscar-Nominated composer Mica Levi, John Lurie, and San Fermin.\nEnsemble LPR has recorded on Deutsche Grammophon and performed at notable NYC venues including (Le) Poisson Rouge, Central Park\u2019s Naumburg Bandshell, Central Park Summerstage, BRIC House Ballroom, and House of Yes. Click here to see the group\u2019s upcoming schedule for its fifth anniversary season.\nEnsemble LPR Mission\nOurs is a uniquely exhilarating moment for music.\nThe old hierarchies of taste have been called into question; the old distinctions of genre have been revealed as obsolete.\nNever before has such an abundance of musical riches been so widely available to so many listeners \u2014 laymen and experts alike.\nAnd yet, alone among the major art forms, classical music seems resolutely wed to anachronisms of tradition and ritual that first sprang up in the nineteenth century. Indeed, a newcomer to classical music might be forgiven for wondering:\nWhy, in the year 2014, is the work of classical music so little a part of the larger cultural dialogue?\nWhy, in a city like New York, is the work of orchestras and composers of so little relevance to the lives of people who follow the arts, and to people who do not?\nWhy, among its peer art forms, is classical music the least nimble and most conservative in its patterns of thinking?\nWhen did a genre dominated by genius and virtuosi become sclerotic, rigid, unresponsive?\nEnsemble LPR is that newcomer.\nDavid Handler | Founder & Artistic Director\nDavid Handler is a composer of acoustic and electronic music. His work has been described by The New York Times as \u201ceerie\u201d & \u201csuperbly wrought\u201d, and has been characterized by its use of familiar, often tonal relics within a narrative structure and polytonal language that seek to explore the notions of incongruity and deconstruction.\nCommissions include the transcription and orchestration of Riceboy Sleeps by Alex Somers & J\u00f3nsi Birgisson of Sigur R\u00f3s, commissioned by Lincoln Center, and the acclaimed Solstice, commissioned by Naumburg Orchestral Concerts for its 110th Anniversary and premiered by Ensemble LPR in Central Park. Prominent performances include a Composer Portrait curated by Orange Mountain Music\u2019s Richard Gu\u00e9rin at Barbes, the 2013 21c Liederabend at BAM, and the world premiere of Celtic Verses in a concert Celebrating the release of Follow, Poet, Ensemble LPR\u2019s Deutsche Grammophon debut, earlier this year.\nHandler began studying the violin at age three and attended the Manhattan School of Music as both a violin and composition major. As a violinist and violist, Handler collaborates regularly with Horacio Guti\u00e9rrez and has played under the baton of Kurt Masur, Zden\u011bk M\u00e1cal, and Jerzy Semkow, with whom he studied conducting.\nHandler is the co-founder of Le Poisson Rouge and the Founding Executive & Artistic Director of Ensemble LPR. The venue\u2019s mission is to revive the symbiotic relationship between art and revelry, thus invigorating the musical landscape for artists and audiences alike. In its seven years of operation the venue has received numerous awards and accolades, from ASCAP, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone and The New Yorker.\nHandler\u2019s speaking engagements include: The North American Critics Alliance at Lincoln Center, University of Missouri \u2013 Kansas City, New York University, Syracuse University, Hunter College, The New School, and The Manhattan School of Music.\nHandler sits on the advisory board of CavanKerry Press, The David Lynch Foundation, and The Mount Sinai Department of Psychiatry. He lives in New York City with his wife Marlene May Handler.\nContact ensemble LPR: marketing(at)lprnyc.com",

Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, 611 (1). pp. 176-192. ISSN 0002-7162\nIt has become commonplace to speak of political parties and brands. This article looks at the rise of the brand and explains how branding has become the cutting edge of commercial marketing. It examines how the brand concept and research techniques are used in politics and focuses in particular on the rebranding of Tony Blair in the run up to the 2005 U.K. general election. More broadly, it argues that branding is the new form of political marketing. If market research, spin, and advertising were the key signifiers of marketed parties and candidates in the 1980s and 1990s, \u201cbranding\u201d is the hallmark now. It will argue that the brand concept has analytical value. It is not simply a convenient and fashionable term for image. Furthermore, it is a demonstration that we are moving from a mass media model to a consumer model of political communication.\nhttp://www.aapss.org/the-annals\n\u00a9 2014 American Academy of Political & Social Science",

No, not because it was the first win of the season for his Saints, but because of the location in which it took place.\nThe Saints quarterback was playing in San Diego for the first time since 2005\u2014the year he suffered a major shoulder injury while playing quarterback for the Chargers in Week 17. To make matters worse, the injury came on what was literally a meaningless fumble.\nThe injury would lead to Brees and the Chargers parting ways and leave Drew wondering if he would ever play professional football again.\nWe know how that story turned out, but fast forward to Sunday\u2014which was not Drew's best game\u2014where he described the Saints victory as a team effort, touching on how these moments are the ones you don't forget.\nThese are special moments. They don't last forever. So you just try to enjoy them as much as you can. My family was here, my kids, my wife Brittany. We still spend a lot of time here.

Art exhibits are held at the Royal Academy of Arts and at the Hayward Gallery.\nThe National Gallery houses are one of the finest collections of masterpieces in the world. In 1824 the government bought the collection of pictures accumulated by John J. Angerstein. The specially built gallery in Trafalgar Square was opened in 1838. It was visited by newly crowned Queen Victoria. The main collection of more than 2,000 pictures is arranged chronologically in 4 wings. Sainsbury Wing /1260-1510/, West Wing /1510-1600/, North Wing /1600-1700/, and East Wing /1700-1920/. Italian painting includes works by Botticelli and Leonardo Da Vinci. Paintings of the Dutch and Flemish schools include the works of Rembrandt, Rubens, and Van Dyck. French and Spanish paintings include works by Velazquez and Goya, Manet and Renoir. British paintings include selection from Hogarth to Turner. There are Gainsborough's superb Mr. and Mrs. Andrews and Constable's famous Haywain. Admission is free.\nThe National Portrait Gallery includes pictures of historical personalities, sculpture, miniatures, engravings and photographs. It was established in 1856 with the aim of illustrating British history. The Gallery does not display portraits of living persons, apart from members of the royal family. Items in their historical context accompany the portraits.\nThe Tate Gallery houses the national collection of British works of the 16-20th cc. Sir Henry, Tate, the sugar magnate, offered to finance the building of a new gallery. He donated his own collection of 64 paintings. The British works begin with Man in a Black Cap pained by John Bettes in 1545. Hogarth, Blake, Turner and Constable are particularly well represented. There is a collection of kinetic and optical art.\nThe British Museum is one of the most famous museums in the world. It was founded in 1753 by an Act of Parliament. It houses a collection of ancient civilizations and 15-million-volume national library. In 1973 the library became part of the newly formed British Library. There are many giant statues in the Museum. The Museum is famous for Egyptian mummies of kings and queens. In Room 25 there is the Rosetta Stone, which was the key to understanding Egyptian picture writing, hieroglyphs. The writing tells of battles of the time. Free introductory tours include The World of Asia, Europe, The Ancient Near East, Early Egypt and Nubia, and Treasures of the Islamic World. Admission is free although donations are welcome.\nThe Victoria and Albert Museum / V & A/ has the largest collection of decorative art. The English costumes dating from the 16th century are displayed here. The oldest is a boy's shirt from the 1540's. There are also outstanding landscapes of John Constable and English and Continental sculpture. There is a special collection of tiny miniature portraits. The Great Bed of Ware was made of oak in 1580 is kept at V & A. It is big enough to hold 8 people. The people who slept in it, by tradition carved their names on it.\nThe Louvre, national art museum of France and the palace in which it is housed, located in Paris, on the right bank of the Seine River. The structure, until 1682 a residence of the kings of France, is one of the largest palaces in the world. It occupies the site of a 13th-century fortress. In 1793 the Louvre was opened as a public museum, and the French painter Jacques-Louis David was appointed head of a commission to administer it. In 1848 it became the property of the state.\nThe nucleus of the Louvre collections is the group of Italian Renaissance paintings\u2014among them several by Leonardo da Vinci\u2014which were owned by Francis I, a collector and patron of note. Among its greatest treasures are two of the most famous sculptures of the ancient world, the Victory of Samothrace and the Venus de Milo, and Leonardo's famous portrait, Mona Lisa. The Louvre also holds works by the other Italian masters Raphael and Titian and paintings by the northern artists Peter Paul Rubens and Rembrandt. Protection of all the Louvre's priceless masterpieces during the two world wars was effected by their removal to secret depositories outside Paris.\nThe Prado, art museum located in Madrid, Spain. Also called the National Museum of Painting and Sculpture, the Prado houses nearly 3000 paintings and many other sculptures, drawings, and pieces of furniture and decorative art.\nThe collection consists mainly of works added to the Spanish royal collection from the 16th century to the early 19th century. Artists from countries that were friendly with Spain contributed to the royal collection, so many outstanding examples of the Italian and Flemish schools of painting are represented. Of particular note is a series of paintings by Titian commissioned by Charles V and Philip II in the 16th century, and a series painted by Rubens for Philip IV in the early 17th century. In addition, the Prado houses an outstanding collection of paintings from the Spanish school, including works by Goya and El Greco.\nThe Prado was founded in 1810 by King Fernando VII at the initiative of his wife, Do\u0441a Isabel of Braganza. The original building, a great work of neoclassical architecture by the Spanish architect D. Juan de Villanueva, has had several extensions added to it during the 20th century. Today the collection is divided between the Villanueva building, which houses paintings from the Middle Ages to the 19th century, and the Cas\u0443n del Buen Retins, which houses 19th century works formerly displayed in the Prado and the Modern Art Museum.\nState Hermitage Museum, museum of art in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The Hermitage is the largest public museum in Russia and home to one of the greatest art collections in the world. Russian Empress Catherine the Great founded the Hermitage in 1764 as a museum for the royal court. The holdings originally consisted of Western European works of art that she purchased from private collections. These were housed in a private gallery called the Small Hermitage that was connected to the Winter Palace, the vast, ornate winter home of the Russian tzars. The tzars who succeeded Catherine substantially increased the collections, which expanded into the Old Hermitage, another private gallery adjoining the Winter Palace. The buildings comprising the Hermitage were rebuilt after a fire in the Winter Palace in 1837. The museum opened to the public in 1852 and became public property known as the State Hermitage Museum in 1917, following the Russian Revolution.\nThe collections are now housed in five magnificent interconnected buildings, including the Winter Palace. The lavish exteriors and interiors of these buildings are of architectural and historical importance in themselves. They provide a rich setting for collections that cover virtually every aspect of the fine arts, from classical antiquity to 20th-century painting. The collection also includes examples of Russian art, artifacts from non-Western cultures, Oriental art, coins, and jewelry.\nThe Hermitage\u2019s collection of Western European art is particularly strong in Italian, Spanish, Flemish, and Dutch paintings and includes major works by Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Giorgione, Caravaggio, El Greco, Rembrandt, and Peter Paul Rubens. The Schukin and Morozov Collections of impressionist, postimpressionist, and modern paintings contain many of the finest works by Henri Matisse, as well as major paintings by Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, Henri Rousseau, and Pablo Picasso.\nMetropolitan Museum of Art, art museum in New York City, one of the largest museums in the world. Founded in 1870 by a group of public figures, philanthropists, and artists, the museum has occupied its current location in New York City's Central Park since 1880 in buildings designed by the American architect Richard Morris Hunt.\nThe museum's collections, among the finest in the world, are divided into 18 curatorial departments. Each department is responsible for the acquisition, preservation, and exhibition of its works. A description of each department follows.",

In a few short weeks, the number of cases and fatalities sky-rocketed form single to triple digits. To date, Liberia has been hit the hardest of any of the affected countries, with over 1000 suspected cases, and over 600 fatalities, consistent with the nearly 60% mortality rate of this particular strain of ebolavirus.\nTensions mounted in the last few months, as a number of cases were discovered in Monrovia, Liberia\u2019s capital. A treatment facility for suspected Ebola cases was set up in West Point, a township of Monrovia, however, locals were angered that infected patients were being brought into their community from other parts of the city. On August 16, armed men attacked the clinic and looted infected medical equipment and bed linens, causing patients to flee. While some of the patients were later found and brought to a hospital in Monrovia, other remained missing.

She called me over to see the three, teeny-tiny baby mice, eyes still closed, that were crawling around the ground, aimless and confused without their mother. They were unbelievably adorable, and after a great deal of pleading on my part, my mom allowed me to keep them, provided they stayed outside. I fed them milk out of a bottle I had made from a plastic pen, and built them a cage out of some sticks and a bit of wire I\u2019d scavenged from one of my dad\u2019s projects. Sadly, my cage was no match for our cat, and when I went to check on the mice in the morning, they were no more.

This is the kind of news that turns my stomach. And while I\u2019m glad that social media is raising awareness about this story, it\u2019s often addressed in ways that make me uncomfortable. I am by no means an expert on the subject, but I\u2019ve tried to break down the story and responses in a way that makes them easier to understand.

If the value is Vcc, it means there's a short between the 2 wires, and we have connectivity... The measurement will be to some threshold under Vcc, to allow for possible losses/degradation along our circuit. This is naive because we are counting on the user to set up the measurement in a logical way (e.g. on two points of the same line). This method can be fooled if, for example, we measure a Vcc equivalent value from another source.\nOutput some sort of predefined series of zeros and ones, and measure that we are reading the same value at the same time.\nEventually, most of the work this week had been done in learning groups. I worked mostly with the \"voltage-meter\" group, and learned about how the system works end-to-end. Reverse engineering is an important tool, and we set out to learn by understanding the original assembly and python codes, and modifying them to do what we want.\nI've started to do the connectivity tester. After doing the voltage meter, this should be simpler.\nPython: Indentation is extremely important in python. It doesn't matter if its 2, 3, 4 or 8 spaces or tabs, it just has to be consistent for the entire script.",

        "title": "Theology for Real Life | Tag Archive | Maccabees",
        "raw_content": "Archives For Maccabees\nWhy are Protestants scared of the Apocrypha? I think it\u2019s because we think that it\u2019s Catholic, and since we\u2019re Protestant, we don\u2019t want to taint our theology with the dogma of Rome. But such fear is based on an inaccurate understanding of what these books are. The books of the so-called \u201cApocrypha\u201d\u2014yes, the ones that are placed inside the Bible of Roman Catholics\u2014were not written by Catholics, for Catholics, nor did its authors set out to expound Catholic doctrine. The Apocrypha wasn\u2019t even included in the so-called \u201cCatholic canon\u201d until hundreds of years after it was written, and many of its authors would probably be appalled that it was.\nSo what is the Apocrypha?\nThe Old Testament Apocrypha (to distinguish it from the New Testament Apocrypha, which is much different) is a collection of 7 (or sometimes 10 or more) books written by faithful Jews living during the intertestamental period. Here\u2019s a snapshot of their content:\n1-2 Maccabees. A history of the Greek persecution of the Jewish people, and the subsequent Maccabean revolt (around 180-140 B.C.).\nWisdom of Solomon. A Jewish philosophical treatise about the righteous and wicked\nTobit. A tale about a righteous male Jew, similar to Job\nJudith. A tale about a righteous female Jew, similar to (though in many ways, quite different from) Esther\nSirach (or Ecclesiasticus). Wisdom literature similar to Proverbs\nAdditions to Daniel and Esther. Like it sounds, these contain bits that are left out of the biblical books.\nBaruch. A book that longs for God\u2019s restoration of Israel.\nNow again, these books were written by God-fearing Jews\u2014not Catholics nor Protestants. And they were written before Christ, so its authors did not have a chance to accept Jesus as Lord and Savoir. The books ended up being collected in the Septuagint (Greek translation of the OT) and then the Latin Vulgate, and since the Vulgate was the standard Bible of the church for over 1,000 years (around AD 400-1500), the Apocrypha became part of the canon. However, they were considered \u201cdeuterocanical,\u201d or in layperson\u2019s terms \u201cnot as important as the 66 books of the canon.\u201d When the Reformation hit (1500s), the Reformers rejected the Apocrypha as part of inspired Scripture.\nInterestingly, however, the Reformers didn\u2019t rip out and burn the Apocrypha when they stood against the Catholic Church. In fact, Martin Luther and others continued to print their Bibles with the Apocrypha in it. It wasn\u2019t until the late 1800s when even Protestant King James Bibles began to be printed without the Apocrypha.\nThe fact that you don\u2019t have the Apocrypha in your English Bible is a rather recent phenomenon.\nSo the Apocrypha is not Catholic. It\u2019s a collection of Jewish books written between the Testaments, when faithful Jews were seeking to live righteously in the midst of a pagan environment. And I\u2019m pretty convinced that we will see and embrace its authors in the New Creation.\nSo why are Protestants so scared of the Apocrypha? We\u2019ve already shown that it\u2019s not Catholic, so there should be no fear of transforming into a worshipper of Mary by flipping its pages. I\u2019ve also heard people raise the question: \u201cSince it\u2019s not inspired, then we shouldn\u2019t read it.\u201d\nHmmm\u2026do I even need to address this, or is the inconsistency as glaring to you as it is to me? If we should only read inspired literature, then our libraries need a serious renovation.\nWhat about all the supposed doctrines in the Apocrypha that are dangerous? I mean, even though it wasn\u2019t written by Catholics, it contains stuff that leads to Catholic doctrine, right?\nWell, sort of, but not really. Yes, there are certain passages that Catholics will go to in order to support certain doctrines (praying for the dead, purgatory, salvation by works), but you\u2019d be surprised at how unclear such passages are. If you read the Apocrypha and weren\u2019t looking for these doctrines, you\u2019d probably pass right over them. Moreover, there are passages in the NT that could (but don\u2019t) suggest the same thing: 1 Corinthians chapters 3, 15, and James 2 all could be taken to support purgatory, praying for the dead, and salvation by works respectively (again, I don\u2019t think they do). But we still read them.\nSo what benefit is there in reading the Apocrypha? Here are a couple.\nFirst, it helps us breathe the ancient air that Jesus and the apostles breathed. Books like 1 Maccabees acquaint us with the history that branded the idea of the kingdom of God on the hearts and minds of first century Jews. Wisdom of Solomon helps us see a blend of Jewish and philosophical reasoning that we see in Hebrews and (to some extent) in John. Plus, Paul was probably in critical dialogue with the Wisdom of Solomon when he wrote Romans. Other books such as the apocalypse of 2 Esdras (or 4 Ezra, which is in some versions of the Apocrypha) helps us to interpret the book of Revelation. It too talks about weird creatures coming out of the sea. In short, these books help us to situate the NT in its own context.\nSecond, these books can be downright inspiring. No, I didn\u2019t say inspired, but inspiring. Many of the faithful Jews who wrote and resonated with the books of the Apocrypha lived in a time where obedience meant death and apostasy could result in much wealth and cultural acceptance. The Apocrypha, therefore, may be a healthy alternative than much of the fluffy junk that inundates our Christian bookstores today. And, if we are going to read non-inspired literature (John Piper, Mark Driscoll, John MacArthur, Beth Moore, etc.), then why not read stuff that was written right around the time of Jesus?\nAll in all, I\u2019ve been tremendously blessed by reading the Apocrypha and have a better handle of the NT because of it.\nIn Books, History, The Bible\tCatholicism, Maccabees, The Apocrypha",

The program has worked so well that two lawmakers want to expand it to all of the services.\nThe Air Force\u2019s chief legal officer recently took to Twitter to ask airmen and civilians what the military leaders are overlooking when it comes to curbing sexual assault. He posed several questions, including whether alcohol is such a major factor in sexual assaults.\nAlso this week: A senior noncommissioned officer has suggested that one way the Air Force could say money amid budget cuts would be to end in-residence professional military education.\nChief Master Sergeant of the Air Force James Cody says whether he thinks that\u2019s a good idea and what the future holds for PME.\nIn other news, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio is coping with budget cuts by turning off lights and air conditioners, prompting Ohio Republican Rep.

        "raw_content": "Q. If the hijab is not compulsory, then why do all women wear it in the mosque?\nA. Religious protocol is often more about custom and tradition than what is actually mandated. Also while you may think \u2013 and for us, that is the correct viewpoint \u2013 that it is not compulsory, there are many Muslims who think that it is. The mosque is not seen as the place for controversy, and one usually engages in the more \"conservative\" behavior to avoid argument. Even in religions that have long evolved from the headcovering, it seems that there is some idea that a woman should cover her head in a place of worship, as is evidenced by the hat that was so much an integral part of many Christian women's attire when going to church services up to just a few years ago.\nFrom a purely legal perspective there are two maxims that may apply here: \"dar al mafaasid yuqaddam ala jalb al masaalih \u2013 abnegation of problems takes precedence over the pursuit of good.\" Of course this is open to a lot of interpretation. Ours is that a Muslim woman who sees that the khimar is not compulsory and is actually quite a sexist imposition in this day and age will still be better off avoiding that argument in a place of worship. The avoidance of argument and resulting chaos and resentment take precedence over her educated abandonment of the attire. The second one is \"yutahammal al darar al khaas li daf' al darar al aam \u2013 private tribulation is borne to avoid a more general one.\" She may feel bad having to wear what is not a requirement to go to a religious service, but if she does not, then the reaction of the majority might result in argument and worse. So she follows the protocol just to keep peace.",

        "raw_content": "MusicMan Bendigo Upcoming Music Slam\nBendigo Art Gallery To Showcase Toni Maticevski Exhibition\nThree Winter Essentials\nAnyone who knows me well also knows that autumn and winter are my all-time favourite seasons when it comes to fashion. The trends are easy to follow, and who doesn\u2019t want to feel like they\u2019re wearing a giant blanket around for clothing all day every day? I know I do. So I thought I would run through my top three style essentials for the cooler months of the year.\nStarting with my favourite, I feel that everyone should own at least one really nice pair of heeled ankle-boots. You can always get thrifty and shop around for a bargain \u2013 I recommend keeping an eye out for factory-outlets and go in to the sale sections of all your favourite online shoe stores. If you\u2019re lucky, you can find awesome styles from last season that are just as chic now as they were back then. In my preference, I think leather is always a good option, however you will want to water-proof these with a protecting shoe spray designed specifically for that reason.\nThis is one piece that I highly recommend putting an investment into. Leather jackets are damn expensive, in fact mine happens to be the most expensive piece of clothing I\u2019ve ever purchased, and will continue to be the biggest clothing purchase of my life \u2013 until I one day buy my wedding dress. But I digress.\nI\u2019ve had mine for around three years now, and it\u2019s still going strong. I wear it pretty much every single day, and it happens to be the garment I\u2019ve had in my wardrobe for the longest amount of time. It\u2019s amazing for warmth, as the leather protects from the cold and keeps the warmth in too. Plus, they make you look like a total badass, and if that\u2019s not going to convince you that you need one, I don\u2019t know what will.\nBeing 5\u20190\u201d, it isn\u2019t difficult for me to find a good oversized knit, as most things are oversized on me. But these are one of the pieces that usually get me through the winter months. They\u2019re amazing for layering over collared shirts, and the perfect companion to a leather jacket or oversized coat.\nBy the end of the season mine usually get a bit tired-looking, so with this one acceptation, I tend to opt for a less-expensive option \u2014 I always end up with unrepairable pulls, pilling and stretched out arms. To make them last, you may also want to invest in some triangle hangers with the bar connected so that you can fold them in half and hang them rather than hanging them from the neck \u2013 as doing that will encourage your jumper to stretch out of shape and ain\u2019t nobody got time for that.\nI do love shopping, but I usually never make any purchases that I know I won\u2019t get my money\u2019s worth from. The best part about these three items is that they can be worn all year around, either by pairing things right back, or adding more layers to your outfits.",

The photo, above right, pictures the back of 200 Water Street after Aufgang's design was approved by Landmarks last year.\nhttp://ny.curbed.com/archives/2014/0...ial_future.php\nValuation of condemned Brooklyn site paves way for hotel\nA judge has valued a condemned property at 730-40 Atlantic Avenue, close to where the Barclays Center stands, at approximately $9.2 million. The move opens up the possibility of a 12-story budget hotel at the site.\nThe property was located in an industrial-use zone until 2001 and later condemned by the Empire State Development Corporation to make room for the Atlantic Yards project.\nThe property\u2019s current owner, 730 Equity Corp, applied for a rezoning in that would allow a hotel to be built on the site.\nWhile earlier valued at around $2 million, Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Wayne Saitta reviewed the prior appraisal and concluded earlier this month that the actual value of the property is around $9 million.\nThe judge said that Atlantic Avenue, unlike neighboring Pacific Street, \u201ccreates a situation that can support a larger development.\u201d\n\u201c[E]ven though a 124,000-square-foot hotel is physically possible on the site, the Court must also consider whether such a hotel is financially feasible,\u201d Saitta wrote in the ruling. The ESDC maintained that a hotel in that location would not be viable.\nhttp://therealdeal.com/blog/2014/05/...way-for-hotel/\nMore Info: http://www.brooklyneagle.com//articl...hsfp=523038201\n119-123 Kent Avenue\nRenderings are up for a new mixed-use development at 119 Kent Avenue in Williamsburg, which will add a single-family residence atop a new commercial space. Anthony Fernicola is the site\u2019s developer, and Muroff Architects \u2014 the source of the images \u2014 is designing.\nAn online flyer from Winick Realty has the details on the retail space\u2019s specifications, and it will span \u201capproximately 3,000 square feet\u201d across the ground levels of both the new building and adjacent structures, from 119-123 Kent Avenue.\nPermits for the development are slightly complicated, as existing buildings are being combined, and the actual \u2018new\u2019 component of the project will be relatively small. Outside of retail renovations, 121 and 123 Kent Avenue will remain largely intact.\n119 Kent Avenue is a slightly different story; filings for the lot indicate that it will give rise to a 7-story building with 812 feet of ground-floor retail, and a 9,771 square foot residence above. With only one unit, the building will essentially become the Williamsburg equivalent of a mansion.\nhttp://www.yimbynews.com/2014/05/rev...nt-avenue.html\nWait!

Located at 681 Elton Avenue between E 153rd & E 154th Streets right off 3rd Avenue, the 7 story building will house 56 rooms with rates varying from $129 \u2013 $159 per night said one of the owners and Bronxite, Manny Chadah of AMG Elton LLC.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot going on in Melrose, with green construction and developments like Via Verde,\u201d said Chadah when asked by us why he chose the Melrose location. \u201cWe\u2019re located just 2 stops from Manhattan\u2026we want to keep that money in The Bronx\u201d he added.\nAccording to Chadah, the Umbrella will also be a boutique hotel with luxury accommodations and plans are in the works to also have a rooftop lounge for guests and if all goes as planned, it will eventually be opened to the public.\nhttp://www.welcome2thebronx.com/word...e-south-bronx/\n500 Exterior Street:\nAnother 12-story hotel is currently under construction in the Lower Concourse Rezoning District at 500 Exterior Street, and will ultimately hold between 80 and 90 rooms.\nLot sq. ft.:\t16,182\nBuilding class: Hotel - Transient Occupancy-Midtown Manhattan Area (H3)\nCommercial units:\t85\nOther sq. ft. 42,973\nhttp://www.propertyshark.com/mason/P...ronx-NY-10451/\nSouth Bronx is trying to come back! Hopefully we get some high-rise proposals along the Harlem River now.\nOriginally Posted by Busy Bee\nIts crazy to think that one resident will have 6 floors. He or she essentially lives in their own mid rise.\nOriginally Posted by Hypothalamus\nIts a great time for the Bronx. Population wise, it definitely is rising fast which is a positive outlook for the borough as it is now seen as a desirable location instead of somewhere to avoid. Same thing is happening to Harlem. In a sense, its full blown gentrification, but, from a development standpoint, with respect to highrises and mid rises, its providing a steady stream of construction. I only wonder how De Blasios affordable housing plan will impact the Bronx, and the potential projects that loom in a vast pipeline of daily proposals and construction.\nClinton Hill White Castle Will Become a Karl Fischer-Designed Apartment Building\nSay goodbye to this White Castle at the corner of Myrtle and Steuben in Clinton Hill, which will come down soon to make way for a five-story apartment building designed by Karl Fischer. New building applications were filed Wednesday for a five-story, 27-unit development at 533 Myrtle Avenue, as Myrtle Avenue Brooklyn Partnership was the first to report.\nThe mixed-use build will have 25,862 square feet of residential space and 5,910 square feet of commercial. There will also be indoor recreation space, a 1,830-square-foot patio on the second floor, and three bike storage spots on every floor.\nSimon Dushinsky of the Rabsky Group is the developer on the permits, but public records list a private family trust as the owner.\nhttp://www.brownstoner.com/blog/2014...-frontpage-top\nRevealed: 11 Beach Street\n11 Beach Street, rendering by Williams New York\nPermits indicate that the site\u2019s total scope spans 107,367 square feet, and units will average nearly 4,000 square feet apiece; the building stands ten stories tall, and the renovation and refurbishment will maintain the site\u2019s current size. Given the boutique nature of the project \u2014 and the enormous residences \u2014 prices are likely to be astronomical.\nIf the newest rendering is any indicator, 11 Beach Street will be an improvement on its relative predecessor, enhancing the surrounding neighborhood with new residences. As Tribeca has continued to revitalize, its northern side streets have been some of the last arteries to see improvements, and the surrounds of HFZ\u2019s latest project are currently undergoing a mini-renaissance.\nCompletion of 11 Beach Street is slated for early 2016.\nhttp://www.yimbynews.com/2014/06/rev...ch-street.html\nLower East Side Awarded $335 Million For East River Barrier\nHUD Secretary Donovan, Sen. Schumer, Governor Cuomo at the Riis Houses this morning. Photo via GOLES\u2019 twitter feed.\nThis morning at the Jacob Riis Houses, top local and federal officials gathered to announce the winners of a design competition meant to protect vulnerable areas hit hard by Hurricane Sandy from future storms. Shaun Donovan, Secretary of Housing & Urban Development, said $335 million would be allocated to create a barrier along the East River on the Lower East Side.\nThe berm will form what the officials called an \u201cenvironmentally friendly public space\u201d protecting more than 50,000 residents, as well as the Con Edison Plant.\nUPDATE 3:42 p.m. Here\u2019s reaction from State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver:\nOur Lower Manhattan community was devastated by Superstorm Sandy and it is vitally important that we begin protecting our shoreline from future storms and rising sea levels. The Bjarke Ingels Group\u2019s \u201cBig U\u201d resiliency plan will not only offer us crucial protection from flooding, it will be a wonderful improvement to our East River waterfront. The bridges and berms envisioned by the plan will serve as beautiful park space, providing greater access to the river even as we are better prepared for disaster.\nhttp://www.thelodownny.com/leslog/20...hsfp=523038201\nPossible Mid Rise in the future (Unless the developer goes skinny, it could become a highrise). Looks like it will probably yield a mid rise given the size of the lot.\nKevin Maloney\u2019s Property Markets Group, the developer behind the high-profile Walker Tower project, is in contract to acquire a 40,000-square-foot commercial building in Chelsea for $40 million.\nIf extra air rights are bought, PMG could construct a building as big as 75,000 square feet on the site. Kilian LLC has owned the property at 548-554 West 22nd Street near 11th Avenue. The four-story building now has event and art gallery space.\nGiven the building\u2019s location, zoning laws said the site must be equally divided up as both residential and commercial space.\nhttp://therealdeal.com/blog/2014/06/...space-for-40m/\nTroubled 12-Story Delancey Bridge Tower Is Finally Rising\nA stalled project by less-than-stellar architect Michael Kang is stalled no more. Bowery Boogie reports that the 12-story Delancey Bridge Tower, located at 210 Delancey Street near Pitt Street, is active and rising, after running into troubles last summer that caused the Department of Buildings to issue a Stop Work Order. Records with the DOB show that two partial Stop Work Orders still exist on the property (the most recent one was issued just last month), but \"safety work\" and \"structural steel erection and delivery\" are still allowed. The SWOs forbid masonry work, construction of balconies, and order TR-1 (technical report statement of responsibility) field reports to be filed. There are a few other complaints filed against the site, including a violation for not having a safety manager present and a tripping hazard, as plywood was stacked on the public sidewalk. The building's structure currently sits at about four stories, and when it's complete, it will have 69 apartments.\nhttp://ny.curbed.com/archives/2014/0...lly_rising.php\nFairly new development:\nNew Location of Pratt Post Office Will Be Myrtle and Kent Street in Clinton Hill\nThe new location of the Pratt post office formerly on Myrtle and Grand will indeed be at 609 Myrtle Avenue at Kent Street, a tipster confirmed. When he saw workers in the retail space of the condo building over the weekend they told him the space was going to become a post office.\nThe Nabe had a story earlier this year saying the post office had proposed the location. We\u2019re not sure when they plan to open.\nNew five-story, 18-unit elevator condo building located at the corner of Myrtle Avenue and Kent Street.\nEach of the one and two bedroom units has central A/C and heating as well as a washer and dryer.\nhttp://streeteasy.com/building/609-myrtle\nBed Stuy\u2019s Space-Age Apartment Building Takes Shape on Dekalb\nThe Bed Stuy building with a futuristic porthole and center atrium is three stories high so far at 785 Dekalb Avenue. The domed apartment development will have 70 units, 36 bike parking spots and 35 subterranean parking spots, as we reported in April.\nIn case you\u2019ve forgotten, the building\u2019s crazy design looks a bit like a space-age city hall for sea monkeys where the miniskirted creatures might cavort in its slanted portholes and on its angled balconies. We can already see the rounded part of the facade and a cutout for the atrium.\nNote: Rendering of the final Design. Excuse the graffiti/writing. Some people are just jealous, low IQ a-holes. \"Yuppie Boxes\" .\nWe were biking down Dekalb Avenue between Tompkins and Throop yesterday when we spotted this space-age rendering for a long-planned development at 785 Dekalb. Besides asymmetrical portholes and a glass dome, the six-story building will have 70 units spread across 52,429 feet of residential space, according to new building permits.\nAmenities include 36 bike parking spots, 35 cellar-level parking spaces, laundry and a roof deck. Apparently there will also be a large atrium in the center of the building, shown on both the Schedule A filings and the rendering. Behind the fence, it looked like the first floor was being constructed.\nhttp://www.brownstoner.com/blog/2014...ed-stuy-build/\nPerklol\n^Nice center window!\nFind all posts by Perklol\nStalled project coming back to life!\nRevealed: 290 West Street\nSpringtime has seen the Tribeca boom continue to expand, and 290 West Street \u2014 which had seemingly been stalled \u2014 is finally reaching skywards. VE Equities is the developer, and Adjmi & Andreoli led the project\u2019s design, which has apparently seen changes since its last reveal, via The Post.\nThe building will present another contemporary-classic addition to Tribeca, mixing both modern and historic features. 290 West Street has been downsized since the design was first unveiled, losing two floors from its top; the re-configured structure also has a protruding window from its penthouse, a contrast to indentations featured in the previous iteration.\nStill, the facade will have Adjmi\u2019s trademark casement windows, and it also looks to integrate rooftop terraces for future residents. While the old scale of 290 West Street was also appropriate \u2014 and its intricacies more subtle \u2014 the new design will still present an opportunity for contextual growth. As the northernmost lot in Tribeca, its redevelopment speaks to the scale of the neighborhood\u2019s renaissance, and how every corner is now being revitalized.\nhttp://www.yimbynews.com/2014/06/rev...t-street.html#\n10 Story development:\nDOB approves build at 42-60 Crescent Street as warehouse completely demolished\nThe first is that the Department of Buildings formally approved plans for the 10 story building on May 28.1 According to the permit, there will be 44,006 square feet of residential space with 2,309 square feet of ground floor commercial space. The building will have 40 condominium units with apartments ranging from one to three bedrooms. Amenities will include a children\u2019s center, gym, parking and a roofdeck.2\nThe second bit of news has to do with the building that once inhabited the lot. Crews completely demolished that building earlier in the week, as you can see from the photo below. The project has kicked into warp speed ever since demolition permits were approved in late April.\nhttp://liccourtsquare.com/2014/06/04...ly-demolished/\nAnother Midrise for the collection/compilation. Currently under construction in Long Island City.\nWhen all is said and done, the \u201cfinger\u201d building will have 11,845-square-feet of residential space and 654-square-feet of commercial space.2 The 10-story building has an anticipated completion date of August, 2014 and will feature 14 residential units.\nhttp://liccourtsquare.com/2014/06/05...hunter-street/\nNew York\u2019s First Artificial Beach Hopes to Open in 2016\nNature\u2019s overrated.\nThat\u2019s why we live in New York, right? A towering metropolis of manmade awesomeness. Out in nature, there\u2019s bugs, it\u2019s dirty, and the nearest Starbucks is like, an excruciating mile or so away.\nNature haters rejoice because Blayne Ross, a creative entrepreneur and chief visionary for a dystopian and wonderfully artificial future, has proposed New York City\u2019s first manmade beach. But don\u2019t worry, none of the archaic features of a real beach will be involved. Tired of laying out on that faux white sand?

And there is a scientific explanation behind the \"prophecy\" which keeps getting mentioned.\nThose are indeed 5 of the seven classmates. The other two are Kaito and Shiho.

        "raw_content": "The letter below is about what the CDC and all state Departments of Health (plus every mainstream media outlet that takes advertising ([hush\u201d] money from Big Pharma/Big Vaccine [plus every medical trade group such as the AAP and AMA]) has been calling \u201cmysterious\u201d outbreaks (ie, of unknown cause) of acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) among highly vaccinated-age-age pediatric patients. The letter was published in a recent issue of the British Medical Journal (in the \u201cRapid Response\u201d section).\nThe author of the letter receives my periodic Duty to Warn columns, and he was kind enough to forward me the BMJ-published letter. We should be proud of him for writing it and also happy that the BMJ actually printed it. I suspect that most major US medical journals would refuse to publish such important information.\nPerhaps some of the vaccine/Big Pharma-skeptic group receiving this forward could consider raising this important issue in the mainstream media and also challenge mainstream medical journals before the flood of misinformation about AFM falsely establishes in physician\u2019s and people\u2019s minds that intramuscular injections of neurotoxic ingredients in vaccines has nothing to do with the outbreaks. It should be mandatory for every physician or nurse even peripherally involved in AFM cases to document vaccination history, especially the history of pre-school vaccinations and fall influenza vaccinations. Gary\n________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________-\nINJECTIONS AND ACUTE FLACCID MYELITIS: THE DOG THAT HASN\u2019T BARKED\nThe editorial and review of the US outbreaks of acute flaccid myelitis/AFM is timely, but it fails to mention a potentially important co-factor in the cause of this \u201cmystery illness\u201d\u2014intramuscular injections and provocation paralysis. (Stelzer-Braid, BMJ, 19 Dec 2018)\nI venture to say that few clinicians today are aware that injections are strong risk factors for paralytic polio: recent injections (e.g. antibiotics, vaccinations) have accounted for 66% to 86% of attributable risk of paralysis when polioviruses are circulating. (Hill and Knowelden, BMJ, 1 July 1950. Strebel et al, NEJM 1995;332:500. Kohler et al, Int J Epidem, 2002;32:272) Even fewer clinicians are likely to know about poliovirus receptors, which are not expressed in normal human muscle fibers but are rapidly up-regulated in muscle damaged by injections. (Dalakas et al, NEJM 1995;333:62) This enables circulating polioviruses to bind to motor end plates from where they are transported along motor nerves to the spinal cord. (Gromeier and Wimmer, J Virol 1998;72:5056. Ren and Racaniello, J Infect Dis 1992;166:747) 99% of poliovirus infections are benign and self-limited, but of the 1% of paralytic cases a substantial proportion are provoked by injections. There is a dose-response effect: in Strebel\u2019s report of vaccine-associated paralytic polio/VAPP in Romania, a single injection within 30 days of paralysis onset increased VAPP risk 8-fold; 2 to 9 injections increase VAPP risk 27-fold; and 10 or more injections increased VAPP risk 182-fold! For the contacts of OPV recipients the peak risk occurred when injections were given 8 to 21 days before onset of paralysis, similar to Hill\u2019s observations from the 1949 polio epidemic in the UK.\nIt would seem that the foregoing observations should apply to recent AFM outbreaks. Gromeier, for example, showed experimentally how IM injections provoked paralytic polio, and suggested that the same thing could happen with non-polio enteroviruses. In spite of this, CDC investigations have included no questions about injections. This is surprising since the CDC was responsible for the Strebel study of provocation paralysis in Romania. They steadfastly publicize AFM as a \u201cmystery disease.\u201d\nAs of December 17, 2018 the CDC had confirmed 165 US cases of AFM so far in 2018; another 155 possible cases were under investigation. Since August 2014 there have been a total of 491 cases of AFM confirmed by the CDC, and some experts believe that the actual number is substantially larger because many cases go unreported\u2026..This is a devastating disease: only 8% to 18% of children with AFM fully recover and 8% to 14% are left with severe disabilities. (Gill et al, CMAJ 2018 Dec 3;190:E1418)\nMere mention of injections in connection with AFM seems to be taboo, at least in US publicity about this mystery disease. I am aware of a single exception. On November 1, 2016 the Seattle Times reported the death of a 6 year-old boy from Bellingham, Washington from what was thought to be AFM. The case provoked some controversy because the family suspected vaccinations: 14 days before the onset of his illness he had received multiple vaccines for school admission, plus a flu shot. The Washington State Department of Health and hospital authorities publicly dismissed any role for vaccinations. Eventually, the CDC decided that his case was not AFM. The cause of his illness was never announced. (Seattle Times, Nov 5 and Nov 14, 2016)\nNon-polio enteroviruses are at the top of the list of suspects, but I know from private correspondence that a number of pediatric experts believe we must also consider injections and provocation paralysis as possible co-factors. AFM epidemiology is consistent with the pattern of enterovirus circulation; it also follows the timing of back-to-school shots. Why is AFM so prominent in the US? Does it have anything to do with immunization policies and practices? Where do we go from here\u2026..?\nALLAN S. CUNNINGHAM",

        "raw_content": "It Happened in Brooklyn : An Oral History of Growing Up in the\nBorough in the 1940S, 1950S, and 1960s (A Harvest Book)\nRe-Release: SUNY Press, March 2009, ISBN10: N/A, ISBN13: 978-1-4384-2750-8\nPrevious printings: Harcourt Brace 1993, Harvest Books 1995, Paperback; ISBN: 015600237X;\nUniversity of Wisconsin Press, Paperback, 272pp, 09/2004 ISBN: 0299206149\nQuoted NY Times\nQuoted Haaretz\nNEW INTRODUCTION TO \"IT HAPPENED IN BROOKLYN\" 2009 EDITION\n\"How far away/Philadelphia P-A/Little Rock A-R-K/How far away. . .\" For weeks after seeing the 2008 revival of \"South Pacific,\" the song lingered -- its plaintive melody and musing lyric going straight to the heart.\nHow easily it becomes \"How far away/Brooklyn, USA . . .\" for the Brooklyn recalled in this book is also far away, in time, if not distance. Actually \"South Pacific\" opened on Broadway in 1949, during the era when It Happened in Brooklyn begins; for many of the people interviewed here, it was the first Broadway show they ever saw.\nAlready a work of memory when it was composed more than fifteen years ago, It Happened in Brooklyn conjures up a world that recedes ever more into the past, shrinking like images seen through the wrong end of binoculars. Overwhelmingly a paean to a particular past, it is a collective recollection of growing up in a largely working and lower middle class environment bathed in the optimistic glow of the post-war years. It describes an urban setting of shared domestic spaces embraced by the warmth and security of extended immigrant or first-generation-American families, enlivened by games played on sidewalks and in gutters, marked by schools that were secure and staffed with quality teachers, and enriched by the beaches, parks and multitudinous attractions of New York City that were but a cheap and safe subway ride away.\nBut as the story moves into the 1970's, the storytellers -- now moving into adulthood -- confront a changed Brooklyn of new demographics, declining neighborhoods, and rising social instability. Many join the mass exodus to the suburbs, and the book ends on a note of loss.\nBrooklyn continues, however, and by the mid 1990's as artists begin to stake claim to warehouse space in rundown waterfront neighborhoods, a sense of renewal emerges. Young professionals arrive in their wake, drawn to the urban life their parents shunned. Attracted to historic brownstones in areas like Park Slope, they begin the process of gentrification. Real estate operators take a new look at the old borough. They buy up land in downtown Brooklyn, Red Hook, and Greenpoint. Grandiose plans, from the construction of a basketball stadium designed by Frank Gehry (on the land Walter O'Malley wanted for his Brooklyn Dodgers) to high-rise luxurious buildings overlooking the Coney Island boardwalk, are projected with much fanfare. This is new Brooklyn -- hip, fashionable, au courant.\nUrban blight has hardly evaporated. There are still unsafe sections, looming low-income housing projects, persistent poverty. But, at the same time, many neighborhoods are thriving with new populations: Jamaicans, Haitians, Russians from the former U.S.S.R. (who transformed the Brighton Beach area into Little Odessa), Pakistanis, Lebanese, Chinese (the third largest Chinese community in New York City), Puerto Ricans, Dominicans -- a wealth of new Americans.\nWhat happened in Brooklyn is but one instance of what happened in American cities all over the nation as it crossed into the new millennium. Only in Brooklyn everything is a little more: starker, more dramatic, more defined. Perhaps because of the shoreline, ever the grand entrance: the Atlantic Ocean moving into the harbor with the Statue of Liberty at its apex, then turning right into the East River. Perhaps because it is part of New York City, linked to Manhattan by three bridges like bright necklaces in the night. Perhaps because it was and remains such a popular point of disembarkation for people coming to America from someplace else. Whatever the reason, Brooklyn abides.\nOne of these days, we must go back. Cross the Williamsburg Bridge and drive around the blocks of old tenements, spot the warehouses that are now artists' studios, streak down Bedford Avenue, pass the enclaves of Chassidic Jews who've been living in Williamsburg since shortly after World War II, cross Flatbush Avenue and turn down Ditmas Avenue. Cut through the heart of leafy Flatbush, its side streets lined with big Dutch colonials, cross Ocean Avenue, Coney Island Avenue, then Ocean Parkway where the bridle path is but a dim memory. Turn left on McDonald Avenue where the elevator train still roars overhead and right onto Bay Parkway. The big cemetery is on our left. We pass it and go all the way down the big broad boulevard, almost -- but not quite -- to the end, the end being Gravesend Bay just below the Narrows. Before we get there, we turn left on Benson Avenue and drive a few blocks to Bay 43rd Street.\nWe stop. Lafayette High School should be here. The square orange building standing on a block all its own, splendid in its isolation and simplicity. Behind are the playing fields with the bleachers we were always raising money for but which weren't installed until years after we graduated. In front is the broad stairway where we'd hang out after classes, a bright white expanse leading up to the entrance.\nWe'd heard there'd been problems. Violent episodes. Low rates of graduation. It seems order could not be maintained, and that city officials had decided that along with Tilden High School, it was going to be closed down. But, of course, we don't believe it.\nRead more about this book at: amazon.com, barnes&noble.com, wisc.edu",

        "title": "The Vanuatu Trip Blog: Island Hopping",
        "raw_content": "The past 3 weeks have been very busy and the next three are going to be the same, if not busier.\nAfter we last blogged, we have started loaning out books in the library and the headmaster\u2019s daughter was the first person to lend it out. For now, only fiction is allowed out of the library until the next peacecorp volunteer comes in December. Gareth has been running sessions in the library for the school. We take so much for granted back in Australia and in other countries. Many of these kids have never been in a library before and were very excited to loan out their first ever library book. One of the pet peeves is that many children don\u2019t even know how to put a book back on a shelf and so would put the book back with the spine facing inwards. Anyway, enough about the library \u2013 it has just been a very exciting project to be a part of.\nAnother event that happened was that Gareth was asked to preach on the 30th. Gareth found it a big task because it was only a few days notice and it was also done in Bislama. The people were quite impressed and thought that it was a very meaningful message. Alicja thought that he did a wonderful job as well.\nIt is amazing what you can do over here if you are willing to do some volunteer work. Alicja met some volunteers shortly after the parents left at the airport, who were giving some wheelchairs to some people around the place. We visited a boy in Mae (a town about 10-15 mins drive away) and put him in a wheelchair. This was a few weeks ago now. Alicja\u2019s contact details were then passed on to a few volunteers in Port Vila who help children with disabilities. They came up about a week ago and Alicja went with them to Mae to check on the same boy from a few weeks ago. The next day, they went to the hospital to run a workshop. But the real crunch is, they previously thought they had time to get to Southwest Bay to visit two people with disabilities, one of which we measured up for a wheelchair on our last visit (a long amazing story associated with this too). So this week on Friday, we are going back down to South West Bay, much to our delight, to give and fit two people into wheelchairs! It won\u2019t be so much of a sightseeing trip but more like work since it takes a long time to fit people into wheelchairs ... plus they need observing over the next few days after.\nLast Friday was World Teacher\u2019s Day and they have a public holiday called \u2018Constitution Day\u2019 which aligns with it. Tautu Village was to be the host of 21 schools. It was a good and very long day with a whole program. Not all the schools turned up but the teacher\u2019s all marched with a group of custom dancers at the front to lead the procession. There were quite a few speeches, a provided community lunch and some skits that a lot of the teachers did as well. Alicja and I played flute and piano for a welcome song and Michael Jackson\u2019s \u2018We are the World\u2019.\nLast weekend we visited Uripiv Island (pronounced Urbeef) and Norsup Island. Saturday we visited Uripiv, compliments of the Uripiv School headmaster, who picked us up in his boat. We had a tour of the island and visited a missionary's house that was being built by a whole lot of volunteers from Australia and the US. We had a swim then had lunch with the headmaster's family, including a taste of Palolo worms - a salt water worm that the locals catch at certain times of the year. Interesting\u2026..\nAfter lunch we crossed the island and walked around the southern end of the island, collecting shells and looking into caves. Sunday we visited Norsup Island with the Presbyterian Church for a service recognising a retiring elder. It was a bigger celebration than we expected. There were many speeches and prayers (unfortunately for us, the service went for about 3.5 hours on a hot day!), with a cake and a huge lunch. After lunch we walk around the island. We had been warned that the centre of the island was filled with custom villages that we shouldn\u2019t enter so we stayed close to the water and enjoyed the view. We arrived back just in time for the boats back to the mainland. On arriving back on the mainland we were getting out of the boat and Alicja went to help a mum and baby out of the boat. Unfortunately, it was quite slippery and she fell over and got a few cuts and bruises but the baby was ok! After getting back to the house, we had a talking to from Ansen. It turns out we shouldn\u2019t have walked around the island unaccompanied as there are custom spirits, even in the coastal areas. They believe we upset Spirits or not, causing my mishap. Spirits or not - we won\u2019t be doing any more solo exploring!\nToday is Malampa Day public holiday so we made the most of a day off to go visit the young boy in Mae and do a bit more work with his wheelchair. We added a head rest and made a few adjustments - he was very pleased!\nWe are coming close to the end of our stay now - there is so much we want to squeeze in the next few weeks. We are both feeling sorry to leave but are also looking forward to seeing everyone again (not to mention a washing machine!)\nGareth preaching\nJudy with two babies.

        "raw_content": "A Brief History of the Origins of the Glastonbury Carnival\nEarly Celebrations of Bonfire Night\nThe first recorded reference to an organised Procession taking place on the 5th November is in the 9th November 1854 edition of the Central Somerset Gazette (CSG). This appears to indicate that there was a carnival procession of some sort in 1854, and therefore that the Glastonbury Carnival was established some 160 years\u2019 ago.\nIt should be noted that at this time the High Street was nothing but a dirt track with open sewers running down it. In 1865 there is reference to the Town Council stating that Cholera might be expected.\nVarious references have been found, in CSG, to Carnival Processions over the years up to 1870 including observations on there being no band, and that were it not for a few Bonfires and a display of first class Squibbing it would have been difficult to believe it was the 5th November. On one occasion two glass windows were broken at the Rev. Allnuts residence. It was being suggested that Avalonians had grown tired of Bonfire Festivals.\nIn 1870 the following letter appeared in the CSG:\nOur attention has been lately occupied by the report of the Government Inspector sent to Glastonbury to inspect the nuisance which exists in our Town. I mean such as one which occurred on Saturday night last. THE FIRING OF SQUIBS and other things, exposing property to fire. If those entrusted with Law and Order in the Town will not do their duty, the sooner we get the stipendiary magistrate in their place the better.\nSigned: A LOVER OF LAW AND ORDER\nIn 1875 it was reported that Bonfire Night was a decidedly tame affair compared with other years, old hands have given way to youngsters and the result was anything but favourable to those who liked to see the anniversary kept up with \u00e9clat. There was no procession, no Guy and very few Tar Barrels. This suggests that processions had been held in previous years, and also confirms that for many years it was the practice on the 5th November, to race down the High Street with lighted Tar Barrels.\nA report of the 1880 Bonfire Night read: The Anniversary of the frustration of the gunpowder plot was celebrated with more than the usual spirit on Friday evening. Proceedings commenced with a Firework Carnival in Benedict Street School, admission was by ticket, here the fun ran high, music was provided by the Avalonians Band. Soon after 9pm the Band paraded the Town and spirits were aroused. At the top of the Town a procession was formed and marched to the Market Place (Cross). Squibs and crackers were let off en route. Around the Cross and up the Town again to the strains of the Band, on turning at the top of the Town an individual took the lead with a Tar Barrel which he bore aloft in triumph and at last deposited it in front of Mr Barnes shop, where it blazed away cheerfully). The proceeds were brought to an end at 11pm, when the Deputy Chief Constable told the crown that he would not summons anyone for what had been done previously. This piece of good Generalship earned Deputy Bisgrove three hearty cheers and the crowd dispersed.\nThis the first clear reference to an organised procession but lighted tar barrels, and races with them down the High Street to the Cross, continued to be a feature.\nLater on in 1891, it was reported in the \u2018Avalon Independent\u2019 that two rival groups had been competing to organise the November celebration. These were the \u2018Bonfire Boys\u2019 who had been responsible for many years\u2019 organising the Bonfire on November 5th, and a new a new group calling themselves the \u2018Carnival Club\u2019. Agreement could not be reached and a public meeting was eventually called, attended by several hundred people. Here it was resolved that a new Committee, to be styled \u2018The Glastonbury and District Carnival Club\u2019, would be formed to organise the event. However, the \u2018Bonfire Boys\u2019 did not accept this and arranged their own huge bonfire at the top of the Town, while the new committee organised theirs at the Market Cross. Two separate processions were held and they paraded along Benedict Street, Magdalene Street, Bere Lane, Chilkwell Street, Manor House Road, and Northload Street.\nIn the account in the 7th November edition it was noted that when the two processions met in Northload Street, there were no problems and they made room for each to pass by. At the conclusion of the processions, a grand display of Fireworks was held in the Market Place, tar barrels were lit in the High Street, and the fun was kept up \u2018til Midnight. At this time Mr Bisgood, Deputy Chief Constable, appeared and congratulated everyone on such a peaceful display, saying his Officers had enjoyed a \u201cnight free of duty\u201d.The crowd called for three cheers for the popular Deputy Chief Constable, the Fire Brigade then extinguished all fires and the crowd wended their way home. (The full article is contained in an appendix to this brief history)\nThere is a record of a meeting held by the Glastonbury Bonfire Boys in the Crown Hotel, on Monday 17th October 1900, to consider the steps to be taken to celebrate November 5th that year. They decided to hold a bonfire and Carnival at the Market Cross on the 5th November, with the Town Band in attendance, but that no procession would be held. A balance sheet was presented to the meeting showing a balance from the previous year\u2019s income of \u00a33 9s 5d, suggesting that some form of carnival procession was held.\nIn 1901 it was reported that the Guy Fawkes Anniversary celebration was low key. There were no bonfires and the town was enveloped in a pall of fog, which dampened the effect of a few fitful Squibs let off by juveniles. Similarly in 1902 it was observed that Guy Fawkes Day passed by largely unobserved, apart from a few desultory explosions of a cracker or squib by youngsters, a did not compare with the \u2018spirited\u2019 events of past years. During the First World War, 1914-1918, there were no celebrations.\nIn 1920 the following comment appeared in the CSG: Glastonbury Guy Fawkes Carnival like many other old time local customs has now been relegated to \u2018Has Been\u2019. Since it has disappeared form our midst, the festivities have been unorganised and spasmodic, but we were not allowed altogether to forget the 5th November. There was a large exodus to Bridgwater Carnival on Thursday last. However some did have a Bonfire at Hill Head and Chilkwell Street for the children to dance around.\nIt appears that this was the low point from which the modern town Carnival and Bonfire Night has gone from strength to strength. From here on there has always been some kind of celebration held on 5th November within the town. Bonfires were customarily held at Chilkwell Street, Hill Head and a the Market Cross, and some squibbing and marching bands were arranged.\nThe Modern Carnival\nThe origins of the present day Glastonbury Chilkwell Guy Fawkes Carnival lie in discussions at some time in 1920/21 in the Rifleman\u2019s Arms public house, in Chilkwell Street. A group of a dozen pub regulars, including Harry Ford, Frank Talbot, Frank Green, Lou Nurse, William Hersey, Frank Green, Les Walters, Harry Maidment, Len Fowen, Jim Maidment, Fred Mortimore and Sgt. Goddard, decided to organise a \u2018Chilkwell Guy Fawkes Carnival\u2019.\nIn 1923 it was said that there were indications of approaching fun several days beforehand. On the 5th November a large party of masqueraders paraded through the Town with a guy, accompanied by frequent explosions of Squibs. A number of Bonfires were lit, in Benedict Street, Hill Head and Chilkwell Street, and dancing took place in the paddock, corner of Bere Lane and Chilkwell Street. Refreshments, including a barrel of cider which was soon consumed were provided by Harry Maidment,\nIn 1925 it was reported that a large fire was lit in Chilkwell Street, by kind permission of the farmer George Mapstone, and after the procession around the Town, a squibbing display was held in there too. The CSG newspaper carried an advert for the Wells City Carnival Procession with prize money of \u00a350.\nBy 1928 the organised procession now included \u2018carts\u2019, with many now coming from Bridgwater and surrounding areas, as well as walking entries. The \u2018carts\u2019 were literally horse-drawn farm carts, before the advent of motor vehicles. The use of \u2018torches\u2019, cans of paraffin held on a long pole with a thick taper into the tin, which when lit they would burn for several hours, meant that \u2018carts\u2019 could have rudimentary illumination. The route started in Chilkwell Street and then went down the High Street and Benedict Street, and then back up again into Magdalene Street, up Fisher\u2019s Hill and Bere Lane to finish in Chilkwell Street.\nThe total income, reported by the Treasurer William Hersey was \u00a311 3s. 4d. To augment this the Committee held raffles, Harvest Home sales, jumble sales, house-to-house collections, concerts, dances in the Assembly Rooms, horse racing in the Abbey Park, and fetes and open air dances in the Park. A Xmas Party was held for the local children in the Assembly Rooms.\nA Carnival Queen featured for the first time in 1934. Together with her maids they received \u00a32 for dresses. The 1936 committee accounts showed expenditure of \u00a331 on Carnival Prize Money, 1s. 6d. on powder for dance floor, 16s to hire of Burtle Band, \u00a32 7s. 6d. for hire of the Assembly Rooms, \u00a31 to hire the Town Band and 6s. 4d. for their refreshments, and 8s.for refreshments for the Wells City Fire Brigade.\nNo carnivals were held during the Second World War, 1939-45 In 1946 more carnival club entries were appearing including several clubs (Lime Kiln CC & Golden Lion CC) from Bridgwater, and from Wells (Clare\u2019s CC). The Somerset County Carnival Association was formed in 1952 with the aim of ensuring consistency of rules and safety requirements across all participating carnivals. Glastonbury joined this grouping in 1953, the following year.\nAccording to the CSG in 1960 the Carnival commenced at 7pm and had finished by 8.30pm, and Public Houses were closed at 11pm. The Devonshire Arms CC of Bridgwater won the Open Tableau and Lime Kiln CC also of Bridgwater the Open Feature. The street collection totalled \u00a3127.\nIn 1963 the Carnival Committee, having incurred a loss of \u00a319 from the two previous Carnivals and facing costs of \u00a3200, decided they could not organise a Carnival that year. However, with some public support the local King William Carnival Club staged a reduced event of five carts, including those of Lime Kiln CC of Bridgwater and Wick CC, on 22nd November.\nBy 1964 a new Committee had been formed with support from Morlands, with Councillor Maurice Bush as Chairman and Ron Moss as Secretary. The Carnival carts were now much improved, and were being drawn by farm tractors together with a small generator for lighting in place of the old flaming torches that had disappeared in the late 1950s. An occasional horse drawn \u2018cart\u2019 still appeared, mostly with the Young farmers Clubs, and was still very popular with the spectators. Between 1965 and 1968 the Carnival continued still made a loss although the event survived and, by making the Chippenham Crackpots the main collectors, things began to improve.\nCarnival steadily improved and by 1974 there were several more local clubs entering including Falcons (of Walton), Goldfinch, Avalon and the Phantoms carnival clubs as well as support from Wells and the surrounding area. During the 1970s the Mid-Somerset Gangs and Features association was formed, with all affiliated clubs now bound by common rules and conditions of entry. However, Bridgwater clubs still dominated the Prize List.\nIn 1987 the street collection was over \u00a310,000 for the first time, with the Avalon Round Table taking over the collecting, and there were over 70,000 spectators in the town. Over \u00a36,000 was given out in attendances and prizes, and local clubs, such as King William CC, were challenging the established Bridgwater clubs for the awards. The Carnival committee became a limited company in 1991, and by 1994 there were 80-100,000 spectators with \u00a312,000 being distributed to charities.\nThe original procession route throughout the 1960\u2019s and 70\u2019s was from Benedict Street into Northload Street, up Manor House Road into Archers Way and down the High Street finishing back in Benedict Street. Later on the procession continued to form up in Benedict Street (spreading into Mill Lane as well) and then progressed up the High Street, along Lambrook and Chilkwell Streets, then along Bere Lane, and Fishers Hill before finishing in Street Road with dispersal on the Street bypass. With the opening of the A39 relief road from 1996 new possibilities opened up for forming up on there and starting from Beckery or Northload roundabouts towards Wirral Park, along Street Road and into the town along Magdalene Street and the High Street and into Wells Road before dispersing back on the relief road.\nAlso in 1996 the Committee began raising funds to build facilities for itself and local Carnival Clubs, however costs escalated from \u00a3100,000 to over \u00a3168,000. Eventually the Butler Carnival Park, named for Herb Butler a key member of the fundraising committee and initially comprising four cart-building sheds, was opened on 12th August 2000. Further sheds have been added and, in 2014, are occupied by Wick, King William, Key Kids, Cobra, Gorgons and Mendip Vale carnival clubs.\nIn 2005 the record collection of \u00a329,000 was achieved. From 2012 Glastonbury has been the final of the Guy Fawkes circuit occurring always on the third Saturday in November.\nResearch by Ern Holley-Simpson with additional material by Peter Lander from 1987 onwards.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Articles \u00bb How To Make A Comeback After An Illness\nA major illness can be a life-changing event. After going through the trauma of it, it can be difficult to know how to start over and resume life the same as it was before the diagnosis.\nThe following are a few tips on dealing with emotions and making a comeback following a major illness:\nIt\u2019s okay to look back on the past. After suffering through an illness that can take a toll in so many ways, it\u2019s okay to look back and reflect on the experience. It\u2019s important to realize the strength it took to get through it. Looking back can show how much progress has been made and can bring more positive thoughts about the future.\nTake the necessary time to rest. Even with a clean bill of health, fatigue often follows prolonged illnesses. It may take up to a year to regain strength and feel normal again. Sleep is an important part of the healing process. Make sure to listen to your body and rest when needed.\nDon\u2019t be held captive by fear. With every follow-up appointment, it\u2019s natural to fear a recurrence of an illness. Talk about those fears with doctors, friends or family members to help overcome those natural insecurities and doubt.\nMake exercise a daily routine. With each day of newly gained strength, work to maintain it with daily exercise. Incorporating simple exercise can help maintain muscle strength and overall wellbeing.\nMake a decision about work. If a leave of absence from work was required, it\u2019s important to transition back in slowly. Returning to work may be helpful to regain a feeling of normalcy. It can also be a great source of support from coworkers and friends. Choose a return work schedule that fits all health needs and that is approved by a doctor.\nPlan something fun. Surviving a major illness calls for some well-deserved fun. Take a trip, learn a new skill or pick up a new hobby. Take the opportunity to expand horizons and do something on the old bucket list. There has never been a better time to celebrate life.",

The competing brands of Bacardi and Havana Club both claim responsibility for the invention of the Cuba Libre, though no one has yet been able to determine the precise origin of this famous cocktail, much less which brand of rum was originally used to concoct it. But it's thanks to murky history like this that legends are created.\nAccording to Havana Club, the only certainty is that this cocktail was first sipped in Cuba. The year? 1900. Or maybe before. 1900 is generally said to be the year that cola first came to Cuba, introduced to the island American troops. But \u201cCuba Libre!\" was the battle cry of the Cuba Liberation Army during the war of independence that ended in 1878.\nAccording to Bacardi: \"The most popular cocktail in the world came about because of the US and Spain, when Teddy Roosevelt and his troops disembarked in great numbers in Cuba. One afternoon, a group of American soldiers on leave gathered in a Cuban bar. One of them placed the following order: Bacardi (Gold) and cola with ice cubes and a lime wedge. The drink incited the curiosity of the other soldiers who all ordered the same thiing. One of them then suggested raising a toast \"Por Cuba Libre,\" in honor of the island's recent liberation.\" However, the Spanish-American war (and the liberation of Cuba) took place in 1898, while the importation of Coca-Cola to Cuba didn't come about until 1900...\nIt is whispered here that the recipe was kept by a few bartenders, but did not enjoy widespread success until later, during prohibition in the US (from 1919 to 1933).\nFor 1 glass\n- 50 ml (2 oz.) white rum\n- Juice of half a lime\nFill a tall glass with ice cubes and half fill with cola.\nInto a shaker also filled with ice cubes, pour 50 ml white rum and the juice of half a lime.\nShake well and add this mixture to the tall glass so that it floats on top of the cola.\nVirgin Cuba Libre\na variation without alcohol.\nReplace the rum with Malibu and the cola with cherry cola for a more exotic flavor.\nMade with rum with a higher alcohol content.\nWhite rum is replaced with Ca\u00f1a (the national brand of rum) and the cocktail is known as a Nica Libre.\nIn the US and Cuba, the Cuba Libre is often known as a Mentirita (little lie), in reference to Cuban politics!",

Under the tutelage of his father, artist Kenneth Nunamaker, Alfred began painting at the age of twelve and exhibiting at the Phillips Mill Art Association as a teenager. Clearly the youngest member of the New Hope Art Colony, by age fourteen Alfred was producing sophisticated atmospheric paintings on par with the seasoned veteran painters. Nunamaker specialized in impressionist landscapes and seascapes, and was particularly fascinated by stormy, threatening skies, snowy hills and icy rivers. Most of his works were painted in river towns around the New Hope area. Following a two-year apprenticeship as a stained glass artist at the Sotter Studio in nearby Holicong, he moved to Philadelphia where he worked with his father as a commercial artist until his retirement.\noil on canvas, 16.125 x 24.125",

        "raw_content": "Ground: Sonera Stadium\nMatch: HJK - Helsingfors IFK 1-1 (Veikkausliiga)\nMy first visit to Finland was in 2010. Back then I went to four games and the second of those were a Kakkonen (level 3) game involving Helsingfors IFK (HIFK). The club were promoted to Ykk\u00f6nen at the end of 2010 but were then relegated back to Kakkonen. At the HIFK game I went to in 2010 I was surprised to find out a club in the Finnish third division had a vocal home support. HIFK is however one of Finland\u00b4s best supported ice-hockey clubs and with this in mind it is not surprising the club can mobilize a lot of fans for a big football match. Back to back promotions meant HIFK were promoted to Veikkausliiga at the end of last season and for the first time in 42 years they will play in the top division in Finland. This meant a unique chance of attending a proper Helsinki derby. Helsingin Jalkapalloklubi (HJK) is by far Finland\u00b4s best and leading football club and match at home against a newly promoted team would normally attract maximum 3 000 spectators. A derby against HIFK is something else though and as soon as the kick-off time was confirmed I booked the trip. Last week it was announced the game was sold-out (and a sold-out game is very rare in Finland). When I visited HIFK in 2010 they played at T\u00f6\u00f6l\u00f6n Pallokentt\u00e4 (T\u00f6l\u00f6 Bollplan), which is situated next to the Olympic Stadium as well as Sonera Stadium. Sonera Stadium, the home of HJK, has a capacity of 10 700. The stadium was opened in 2000 and apart from HJK games it also host some of Finland\u00b4s international matches. The big games, like Finland against Sweden or Germany, are played in the Olympic Stadium. HIFK are also playing their home games this year at Sonera Stadium.\nI arrived in the city centre of Helsinki around 14.30 and being very hungry I went to a local restaurant immediately after checking in at my hotel. Kick-off for the derby was at 18.30 and feeling like I needed some fresh air I decided to walk to the ground from my hotel. The walk took me around 30 minutes and as I approached the Olympic Stadium I noticed both sets of fans had gathered in the same park. Songs and chants but no troubles. The turnstiles opened an hour before kick-off and as usual I went inside as soon as it was possible. As the game was about to start it was apparent this was not a typical football match in Finland. HJK fans packed the south end of the ground and HIFK the north end. Smoke bombs and pyros were set off as the players entered and from now on it was not silence even for a minute inside Sonera Stadium. I was expecting a good atmosphere but was still positively surprised. Fantastic support from both sets of fans and a day football fans in Helsinki can be very proud of. It felt more like a big match in Germany than a league match in Finland. The quality of the actual match was not like in Germany though. HJK made it 1-0 early on in the second half but HIFK equalized in th 87th minute and the match ended 1-1. Games like the Helsinki derby are the ones you really want to visit and hopefully HIFK will stay up. After the match I walked back to my hotel and the following morning I went back home. I have travelled a lot in recent weeks and will now take it easy for two weeks. More trips coming up at the end of July though.\nHJK fans\nHIFK fans\nFans (with the viewing tower in the background)\nThree stadiums in one shot",

        "raw_content": "Dharma is a frustrating, almost untranslatable word. Duty, goodness, justice, and law have something to do with it, but they all fall short\nSome nations seem to possess a code word, which is like a key \u2014 it unlocks the secrets of the country. That word is \u2018liberty\u2019 in America\u2019s case. It is \u00e9galit\u00e9, \u2018equality\u2019, in the case of France. For India, the code word is \u2018dharma\u2019. You wouldn\u2019t know it, though, if you were a member of the India\u2019s english speaking elite, but it resonates in the hearts of the vast majority of ordinary people.\nDharma is a frustrating, almost untranslatable word. Duty, goodness, justice, and law have something to do with it, but they all fall short. Dharma is chiefly concerned with doing the right thing, both in the private and the public life. Dharma provides the underlying norms of society, creating obligations for citizens and rulers, and it thus brings a degree of coherence to our everyday life. What makes dharma different from notions of morality in the other traditions, such as Christianity, is that it does not seek moral perfection. It is pragmatic; hence it is eminently suited to exchanges in the market place and to public policy. This is especially true of rajdharma, or dharma of the king or the state.\nAt the heart of the market system is the idea of exchange between ordinary, self-interested human beings, who seek to advance their interests peacefully in the marketplace. Dharma places restraints on buyers and sellers and creates a sense of trust between strangers. Since I trust you as a person of dharma, I readily accept a check from you. In the same way a taxi driver stops and takes me in as a passenger because he knows that the restraint of dharma will ensure that he will get paid at the journey\u2019s end. Thus, millions of transactions in the global economy are conducted daily based on this shared trust.\nPeople believe that markets are efficient but they are not moral. The truth is that market is neither moral nor immoral, but people are. However, the market sends powerful signals to people to behave in accordance with dharma. It tends to reward dharmic behaviour and punish adharmic behaviour. This reinforces a sense of trust in society.\nI trust the woman who sells fruit to me regularly in Khan Market near my house in Delhi. One day she claimed that she had received exceptionally good mangoes but they were expensive because of their higher quality. I reluctantly bought the mangoes but unfortunately they turned out to be bad. I promptly punished her by shifting my allegiance to her competitor. Not only did she lose my custom but I also told half a dozen friends and neighbours. All of us shared similar stories of her behaviour. As word of mouth spread, she came to be known as a person of low dharma, and lost market share. In this way, the market punished bad behaviour.\nEvery purchase manager has the temptation to squeeze his supplier. If he does not treat the supplier dharmically and gives him a fair price, his own company will suffer when the supplier delivers sub-standard components. On the other hand, the market rewards good behaviour on the part of a company that treats its employees well. The best will want to join such a firm, and with the influx of talent it will be rewarded with high performance and market share. I know of one such company, a small one, that is able to consistently attract talented people from IITs and IIMs because it has built a reputation for having happy employees fairly. Behaviour in accordance with dharma strengthens a company\u2019s brand.\nIn the same way, a company which builds a reputation for honesty and for doing good for the community is rewarded. I was recently asked by a large multinational to recommend a partner. I immediately suggested the Tatas. A person or a firm of high dharma is rewarded with a good reputation. Smart businessmen know this and work incessantly to improve their reputation.\nThese are some of the ways in which markets are not only efficient but they also reinforce good behaviour. The market system depends ultimately not on laws but on the self-restraint of individuals. Dharma provides that restraint in order for people to behave with tolerance and respect. However, there are limits to self-restraint and trust as there are crooks in every society. They have to be punished. Bhishma instructs Yudhishthira in the Mahabharata about the importance of danda, the \u2018rod\u2019of the state to punish persons of low dharma. The epic says that when dharma is low in a society, the dependence on danda or intrusive regulation rises. A society where dharma is weak suffers from pervasive corruption of public officials and ineffective public administration.\nSuch a situation is painfully obvious in contemporary India where public institutions of governance \u2014 the bureaucracy, the police and the judiciary \u2014continue to fail to enforce the law. Why should it take fifteen years to get justice in the courts? This is because people of low dharma find ways to manipulate the courts and the police. The reform of these institutions is a key unfinished agenda of reform in India today. Too many tend to blame the market for the pervasive corruption, especially in high places, calling it \u2018crony capitalism\u2019. The opposite, in fact, is the case. Corruption exists mainly in the unreformed sectors of the economy where public officials still have discretionary authority over economic decisions.\nAlthough two decades have passed since the reforms of 1991 when Indians began their love affair with free markets, capitalism is still trying to find a comfortable home in India. India reforms by stealth because no political party has bothered to explain the difference between being \u2018pro-market\u2019 and \u2018pro-business\u2019, leaving people with the impression that liberal reform mostly helps the rich. They do not understand that being pro-market is to believe in competition, which helps keep prices low, raise the quality of products, and leads to a \u2018rules based capitalism\u2019 that serves everyone. To be pro-business, on the other hand, means to allow politicians and officials to retain power over licenses, which distorts the market\u2019s authority over economic decisions and this leads to \u2018crony capitalism\u2019. This confusion explains the timidity of reform and prevents India from performing to its potential.\nPart of the reason, I am convinced, why capitalism is so disliked lies in linguistic confusion. Too many glibly equate capitalism with greed and confuse self-interest with selfishness. When Adam Smith wrote about self-interest he had in mind ordinary people going about making sensible decisions in their day-to-day lives. When I go to buy mangoes in the market, for example, I naturally want the best quality at the lowest price. This is not being selfish; it is merely being self-interested. If it rains, I will carry an umbrella\u2014nothing selfish about that. In buying and selling each person gains by benefiting others, and an \u201cinvisible hand\u201d, to use Adam Smith\u2019s famous phrase, ensures that everyone gains from self-interested behaviour.\nA selfish or a greedy person, on the hand, is not morally neutral \u2014he promotes his interest at another\u2019s expense, and that is wrong. Selfishness is a social attribute and a selfish person often transgresses on the rights of others. Self-interest, on the other hand, is not a social attribute and can be practiced in solitude on a deserted island. Self-interest is the pursuit of whatever is in one\u2019s interest \u2014a scientist pursues science, a doctor pursues medicine, and an artist pursues art. There is nothing selfish in that, which is why Adam Smith called it rational self-interest. In the Theory of Moral Sentiments, he said that what is rational is not only from the viewpoint of the person involved but also from that of a disinterested rational observer.\nThere is purpose to economic activity and the ancients in India were acutely aware of this when they posited artha, \u2018material well being\u2019, as one of the goals of life. They believed that the pursuit of money is justified to the extent that it leads to the good life. That good life also consists of other goals, in particular, dharma, \u2018moral well-being\u2019. Mahabharata reminds us that the goal of artha is subordinate to dharma. In other words, there is a right and a wrong way to pursue wealth. In today\u2019s language, the pursuit of artha is to make the world a better place \u2014to lift the poor out of poverty. Thus, the moral purpose of capitalism is take societies from poverty to prosperity. The problem begins when poverty has been conquered and a society has become prosperous and middle class. Beyond a certain point increased wealth does not make people happier, and they seek other goals. Successes of capitalism produce over time enervating influences when a generation committed to saving is replaced by one devoted to spending. This is a problem which will confront India and China in the next generation. Ferocious competition is another feature of the free market and it can be corrosive. But competition is also an economic stimulant that promotes human welfare.\nIt is in man\u2019s nature to want more. And dharma seeks to give coherence to our desires by containing them within an ordered existence. Since no amount of regulation will catch all the crooks, self-restraint is needed on the part of each actor in the market place in order to achieve dharma within society. The choice for policy makers is not between unregulated free markets and central planning but in getting the right mix of regulation. Except for communists, hardly anyone in India wants state ownership of production, where the absence of competition corrodes the character even more. Dharma\u2019s approach is not to seek moral perfection, which leads inevitably to theocracy or dictatorship. It offers a modestly coherent world that is also close to our day to day life and hence suited for exchanges in the market place. Self-restraint is one of the meanings of dharma and the trust that self-restraint helps to create in society is I believe the \u2018dharma of capitalism\u2019.",

        "title": "The Healing Light Institute of Spirituality - Defining God",
        "raw_content": "When considering any form of spiritual practice it is not long before we inevitably come across the word \u201cGod\u201d or \u201cGods\u201d. Since the dawn of time man has attempted to make sense of his world and when man encountered any phenomenon that was not easily explained, a god was usually assigned as a form or association. For example the sun and the moon being the most obvious, even volcanoes were worshipped and paid tribute to keep their destructive forces at bay.\nIt could be said that a God or Gods are the embodiment of man's hopes, fears, dreams and nightmares, so it is easy to mould the nature of the God to suit man's needs. Most cultures all over the globe have had associations with some form of divine deity or God. The Egyptians and the ancient Greeks come to mind first with their hierarchy of Gods and Goddesses. More primitive but no more less spiritual cultures like the societies and tribes of South and North America also created deities that where often associated with animals and the living world.\nAs a result of these associations with deities of both the living world and the dead world a variety of rituals were created, which called upon villagers and disciples alike to pay some form of tribute to these gods. From a simple piece of fruit to ritual sacrifice, many an offering was given to appease the wrath of these gods. It was only inevitable that the more cunning and manipulative members of these societies used this \u2018fear of the Gods\u2019 as a mean to establish control, which was a very potent tool for deception and the abuse of power.\nHow do you define something that cannot be seen or touched? How can we believe in something that is abstract in its interpretation and concept and how do we know that what is to be believed in even exists? We are told there is a God but how do we know? The faithful tell us that God exists because he can be felt and when, in the right frame of mind, he can be seen through the subtle beauties in the world through the power of experience. But does this really paint a clearer picture of what God actually is; in fact is \u2018God\u2019 really called \u2018God\u2019 and does this God deserve the definition that we have so kindly provided him with?\nThe word \u2018God\u2019\nSo is God really a God according to the human definition of the word? What does our human dictionary say a God should do or be? The Oxford dictionary, which is reputed to be a trusted dictionary, states the following definition: 1. God (in Christian and other religions which believe in only one God) the creator and supreme ruler of the universe. 2 (God) a superhuman being or spirit: a moon god. 3. (God) a greatly admired or influential person. These are meanings that we have associated to the word God but are they correct? Some words that stand out from the dictionary meanings are very thought provoking, such as creator, ruler, supreme, superhuman, influential and admired. Perhaps we have defined God with human attributes as we percieve God as being more than human, almost superhuman but did God not make man in his own image according to the bible? Perhaps it was man that created God in his own image.\nGod the father, God the son and the Holy Spirit (or Holy Ghost). Jesus was a man and reported to be the Son of God. The lasting image of this mans final moments have been emblazoned into our psyche as a human man nailed to a crucifix. So if Jesus was the son of God so as a human what does God look like? Perhaps most people feel comfortable with the Michael Angelo version of a God who sports a thick white beard and dresses in a white toga, not unlike the portrayal of the Roman God Jupiter or the Greek God Zeus. Even this visual representation of God sitting up on a cloud somewhere is still very human in its association, which suggests the difficulty in clearly defining what is in fact a rather abstract concept. Perhaps our need for a visual and literal definition helped mankind to solidify the fact that God was in some way real and was present in our living world.\nThere is a question that man has always asked and that is \u2018does God exist?\u2019 No one can prove it, yet no one can disprove it although science does seem to be having a good crack at it within the study of quantum theory. There are those who believe, and this belief is something that is very personal, although it may be due to some form of religious doctrine. But still this does not prove that God exists. Perhaps the very idea that, even without any religious intervention, man has naturally looked upwards to the skies and felt that there was something more to life and this something more was a feeling that he was not alone.\nWhat is God, that is if God exists? This is the million-dollar question second to \u201cdoes God actually exist?\u201d So if God does exist what is it? To help us understand the idea of what God is or what God is made off there is one fact that is a universal truth. There is only one thing that truly exists, and that is energy, energy in various forms from the solid, gaseous, visible to the invisible. The entire universe that we know of is one giant myriad of energy in its various states. This energy is the life force of the universe and it is this life force that created humanity and the planet we inhabit. It is this universal life force that we have tried to define and so by definition we have provided this life force with a name which was God, the one true God in the Christian sense. This God was the creator of the universe and is by no means a toga wearing Caucasian male sporting a thick white beard, who sits on a cloud firing thunderbolts at those individuals who choose to defy his will. That is the fantasy based and unrealistic God of fear and one which sadly most people associate with.\nFrom the soul within our body to the planet that we live on God created it all. Not in seven days as is suggested in the bible but over billions of years. Through the manipulation of the universal energies and with the right conditions life can take hold. It should be stresses that the right conditions are needed for any growth to occur, just like the right seed can only grow into a plant with the right conditions. And this is one aspect of our human experience that we take for granted, the value of our life. This wonderful thing that we have, that took billions of years to create, is not fully appreciated. The knowledge of what we are and what we are capable of has yet still to be realised, although there are some people who have started to understand the value of their life experience and these are the ordinary individuals who live to continue the cycle of spiritual evolution and actively engage in their own creative process and one that is based on love and peace.\n\u201cGod is love\u201d perhaps this is a statement that you have come across perhaps it is something new. It does seem like a rather ambiguous statement if not altogether vague. But this simple statement and coupled with learning to understanding it brings us closer to achieving balance and harmony with the life force that created us. \u201cGod is love\u201d god is that energy that we associate with the feeling of love. It is the opposite of fear, it is joy, it is strength, it is capable and it is peace. It is everything that we know to be contented and fulfilled. But as each human being is unique so is their experience of God and so understanding \u201cGod is love\u201d is an experience that is defined through the process of living.\nRather than spending the rest of our days worshipping a God that is poorly defined perhaps we are now being asked to look deeper to shake off this out of date image and to define a new realistic view of God. Perhaps a shift in attitude is required for us to have a deeper understanding of our life experience. Perhaps by having appreciation and gratitude for our own life experience will help us to feel more fulfilled and establish a deeper connection to the universal life force that we have called God.",

        "raw_content": "Tags: film history, Films, history, racism, reviews, vintage\tCategories: Films\nNextClassic, Timeless Glamour On Sale\nPreviousTips For Preserving The Fit Of New Look Foundation Garments\nI have not seen the Toy Wife yet. However, frankly, I would rather it be more truthful than the eternal perpetuation of the \u201chappy darky\u201d myth.\nI am black, and watch movies. I admit whenever I see the blackface or the jolly mammy, it gives me an odd jolt. I suppose its a similar feeling to what GLBT community might feel when watching crude gay humor on SNL, even to this day.\nI usually do not know how to feel about it. And it can run the gamut as well. Something as innocuous as the mammy cookie jar all the way to Birth of a Nation. It does not keep me from watching the films but often leaves me a little sad inside. I admit, there are times I prefer not to see it. Particularly when its just a person singing in black face, for no reason at all, other than it was in fashion. But at the same time, I think it should be shown and not forgotten.\nSo, I guess I didn\u2019t really provide many coherent thoughts on this. I have mixed emotions about it.\nIt\u2019s hard watching scenes that are racist. Still, I\u2019d rather squirm than have the movie edited.\nThe sad thing is that people\u2019s perceptions of slavery in 1938 cannot possibly reflect the reality of slavery. Neither GWTW nor The Toy Wife is good history. But we do pick up these images and they unfortunately stay with us.\nI\u2019m not Black, so I can\u2019t say how I would feel about these portrayals, but I am from the southern Applachian Mountains, and I can tell you that Hollywood\u2019s treatment of mountain people is humiliating. Still, I may get angry at \u201chillybilly\u201d jokes, but I\u2019d never advocate removing them from a vintage movie. The movies are what they are, and do reflect the times in which they were made. To take out scenes that make us uncomfortable would be trying to rewrite this record of our past.\nBianca, your thoughts are coherent \u2014 at least I follow them \ud83d\ude09\nHow you describe your reactions to racist depictions is very much how feel about misogynistic depictions; sometimes I can\u2019t watch either. But I don\u2019t want things sanitized to pretend such things didn\u2019t exist, such thoughts didn\u2019t happen.\nI think we all have mixed emotions about this issue, anger, embarrassment, shame, sadness\u2026 It\u2019s not a simple issue.\nSometimes I even wish they wouldn\u2019t have edited out scenes on the old cartoons/animated shorts like Heckle & Jeckle and Tom & Jerry\u2026 But since many people just place their kids in front of the tv screen, to err on the side of caution is probably best.\nLizzie, again, your comments about \u201chillbillies\u201d sound much like my feelings about the treatment of women (including in contemporary films).\nWhile a film in 1938 doesn\u2019t accurately reflect the realities of slavery, it does reflect (to some extent) what folks in \u201938 thought of slavery \u2014 but then too, we have our own personal and current reactions while viewing it\u2026 When I saw The Toy Wife, I couldn\u2019t quite tell if some of the things shown were an admonishment or an acceptance of slavery. I wish we had some contemporary interviews from the makers of the movie to tell us what the intent was.\nI feel very much the same way as you and the others who have commented so far. It makes me uncomfortable, but I think it would be dishonest to edit it out. I would rather be uncomfortable watching something real, then feel perfectly safe in front of something that\u2019s been censored because someone thought I, and other viewers, just couldn\u2019t handle it. I also don\u2019t know how to bring it up as well. I guess I\u2019m too worried something I say or write will come across the \u201cwrong\u201d way, which I would never want.\nI am black and a lover of classic films. In my experience, it has been the absence of black people in most of these movies, or the limiting of black people to stereotypical Mammie roles, that has been the hardest for me. It is hard to look back on these movies and feel that you\u2019ve been erased in cinematic history. And envying the fashion and glamour is bittersweet when there is the nagging thought that the retro look somewhat excludes you.\nReactions to blatant racism are complex. I recently watched both the 1934 and 1954 versions of Imitation of Life. While I found the 1934 portrayal of a black woman more objectionable (due to the use of her as a cheap comical figure at times) I actually enjoyed the film overall more than the 1959 version due to differences in treatment of gender and due to the fact that the 1934 version was honest about the mistress-servant relationship between the white and black women (In the 1959 version, they were technically friends but the black woman was still nothing more than a glorified servant). Contextually and on the whole, I felt disappointed that the 1959 version was less progressive than the version that came 25 years earlier. On the other hand, Band of Angels was a movie I found offensive due to its sanitation of the hardships of slave life and its placing the culpability of slavery on Africans. I am not sorry I saw it nor would I wish for it to be censored. And Mr. Yunioshi in Breakfast at Tiffany\u2019s is a horror show of prejudice, but it gives an insight into American attitudes toward the Japanese at this time. Still, these portrayals make me cringe, and I have to say that I am glad that Gone With the Wind was censored before its release. I do not know if I would be able to call the film a favorite if they used the n- word or kept other racist aspects.\nWhat I have the most difficulty with are the cartoons, such as Coal Black and the Sebben Dwarves. When a mammie role is portrayed on film, at least there is still a living, breathing human to identify with. With cartoons, the characters are nothing but pure racism, their humanity completely nonexistent. They drew us as grotesquely as they wanted. The disdain and hostility is unadulterated. When I watch them, there is no way to ignore or gloss over the ideas racist whites had of us. It is too in your face. When I see them I have a visceral reaction. They are painful to watch. To add insult to injury, some of the most racist projects are continually being hailed as the most innovative (i.e. Birth of a Nation, Coal Black and the Sebben Dwarves), and it feels like a sly way of validating and keeping alive the racist content.\nI think the best thing bloggers can do no matter what their skin color is to just acknowledge the racism. Ignoring the racism does a disservice to people hurt by the racist content and to people who otherwise may not be aware of the long history of certain racist stereotypes and how it relates to today\u2019s world. You don\u2019t have to have a in-depth discussion about it or try to justify why you enjoy the film. As long as you are unequivocal in your repudiation of certain racist elements of a film, I think most affected would feel satisfied. It is when we are in doubt that people today fully denounce these caricatures that what seems like history to some comes alive and arouses our ire.\nAngel, I nearly forgot about Mr. Yunioshi in Breakfast at Tiffany\u2019s! I find myself with a pained smirk when he\u2019s on the screen\u2026 But at the same time, I\u2019ve seen that film so many times, I think I\u2019ve not merely become desensitized, but already had the intellectual arguments surrounding the portrayal.\nSlavery, on the other hand, is far more shocking and appalling; maybe also because it is more distant in timeline (and from my family\u2019s history). But I suspect it has a lot to do with the absence and purging of black people and their stories from film that you\u2019ve mentioned.\nThanks for sharing your so well-explained points of view on this. Your comments have reminded me of another topic I should discuss here soon \ud83d\ude42\nI am late to the conversation but this blog came up on search of \u2018heckle and jeckle racist\u2019\u2026 oddly, I am doing a research project on the Honor/Shame culture of the South post Civil War. Uncle Remus came up in my research and I asked my boyfriend if he knew who Uncle Remus was. I remembered the Zippety Doo Dah song but had never seen his face. For those that might not know the Uncle Remus story it was written soon after the Civil War and the central character was a gentle wise old slave who would tell didactic stories to the white children (Br\u2019er Rabbit & Tar Baby) who loved him and followed him around the plantation. My boyriend did not know about Uncle Remus either. But we had both heard of Br\u2019er Rabbit which was slang for Brother Rabbit. My boyfriend is black and I am white\u2026 just so the context is clear! When I was looking into Uncle Remus I discovered some references to Heckle and Jeckle being racist. I was shocked! This was my FAVORITE cartoon as a child. So I asked my boyfriend about Heckle and Jeckle and he said that yeah, everyone knew it was racist and his parents did not let him watch it as a child. This was also shocking to me because his parents are not exactly activists on any level and how did his parents know but my parents did not know? I am not sure that my thoughts will be as easy to follow as the eloquent words written before me but I think that whitewashing does more harm than good. We cannot understand the effects of racism if we are not honest about the role it has played in our society. I grew up in a very race neutral family\u2026 the n word was a dirty word but the cultural diversity in my world was on television. In my eyes the world was equal and racism was something that backwards people were. When we whitewash our past media we take away the reality of the message that millions of people received growing up. And this opens the door for some types of people to point their white finger at black politicians and call them racist because it is easy to believe the world is fair when you are the big fish with all the opportunities so when you hear someone pointing out the injustice you might just put your fingers over your ears and fast forward through the painful indiscretions of your ancestors rather than acknowledge that time is not linear and forgiveness matters even today.\nheather, it is just as prejudiced to say white people are \u201cbig fish with all the opportunities\u201d as it would be to say that all Mexicans are lazy.\nI\u2019m Hispanic American and loved the Frito Bandito as well as Speedy Gonzales. I\u2019m infuritated that Hispanics and PC-correct non-Hispanics tried to take these characters from popular culture by declaring them racist images of Hispanics. The same goes for characters in movies. I loved watching old Charlie Chan movies w/my dad growing up \u2013 my Korean American friend doesn\u2019t have a problem with it, but my European American (read \u201cwhite\u201d) friend decries his films as racist. I\u2019d rather watch the movie and make my own mind up.",

        "raw_content": "Read: Choice Wine\nFirst, I should begin by confessing that I speak neither Persian nor Arabic, and so this paper is not intended as a scholarly analysis of the Kitab-i Aqdas or its laws, which I am certainly not qualified to undertake. Rather, I am proposing a \"theory of the Kitab-i Aqdas,\" so to speak--a tentative conceptual framework within which we can understand the Most Holy Book and the role that it is intended to play in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed religion.\nIn particular, I wish to investigate the attitude which the Book takes toward Bah\u00e1'\u00ed law by looking at the historical development of the text itself, as well as a few of the central laws which were promulgated by that text. My intention is to demonstrate that the Kitab-i Aqdas was not intended to estab lish a new law code (shari'a) similar to the one known to nineteenth-century Muslim jurisprudence, but rather to discard that approach to law in favor of a more organic promulgation of ethical principles.1\nNear the beginning of the Kitab-i Aqdas, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h issues this warning:\nThink not that We have revealed unto you a mere code of laws. Nay, rather, We have unsealed the choice Wine with the fingers of might and power. To this beareth witness that which the Pen of Revelation hath revealed. Meditate upon this, O men of insight! (K5)\nThe metaphor that he chooses here is extremely instructive. Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h's reference to a \"mere code of laws\" is most certainly an allusion to the shari'a, the holy law of Islam which is the basis of orthodox faith and practice. With astonishing brevity, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h appears to dismiss this ancient and hoary tradition out of hand. Instead, he explains, he has unsealed the \"choice Wine.\"\nWine is, of course, forbidden in Islam as it is in the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed Faith. In Islam it is a symbol of violation of God's law and, through Sufi usage, also a symbol of mystical communion with God--spiritual intoxication--before which the law is at best irrelevant. That such a statement should preface Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h's own Book of Laws is indeed astonishing. But, it appears to me to presage his attitude toward law throughout the book.\nNonetheless, it seems to me that very often Bah\u00e1'\u00eds--and especially Bah\u00e1'\u00eds from Muslim societies--have very naturally understood the Kitab-i Aqdas to be a simple update of the Muslim code of laws, modernized and sanitized for contemporary consumption. In this view, we have a Bah\u00e1'\u00ed shari'a which is to last for a thousand years. I believe that is a mistaken assumption which cannot withstand careful inquiry, and which could not withstand the challenges of modernity--and now post-modernity.\nThe Revelation of the Kitab-i Aqdas\nAlmost nothing has been written in English about the manner in which the Kitab-i Aqdas was pr oduced by Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h. However, it is suggested by internal evidence and the little that is known of the history of the book's revelation that the Kitab-i Aqdas consists of an initial Tablet of laws which was supplemented over time with verses written in response to questions put to Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h over a period of three or four years.\nEkbal has noted that Fadil-i Mazandarani's scholarship suggests that Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h had begun to reveal some parts of the Kitab-i Aqdas from the first years of his arrival in 'Akka (1868), or perhaps even during his last year in Edirne.2 It would appear that, after the initial composition, the Aqdas was increased in response to letters and petitions from the believers which put questions to Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h which required answers. In verse 98 of the Aqdas, he explains:\nVarious petitions have come before Our throne from the believers, concerning the laws of God, the Lord of the seen and the unseen, the Lord of all worlds. We have, in consequence, revealed this Holy T ablet and arrayed it with the mantle of His Law that haply the people may keep the commandments of their Lord. Similar requests had been made of Us over several pervious years, but We had, in Our wisdom, withheld Our Pen until, in recent days, letters arrived from a number of the friends, and We have therefore responded, through the power of truth, with that which shall quicken the hearts of men.3\nWalbridge4 has suggested that the initial passages of the Kitab-i Aqdas come to an end around verse 17, which begins: \"These are the ordinances of God that have been set down in the Books and Tablets by His Most Exalted Pen.\"5 And while that verse does present a natural break in the text, it appears to me that the book remains integrated and coherent, at least as a compilation of laws, until Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h completes his apostrophes to various lands and peoples around verse 96. After that, the discussion becomes quite choppy and random, and appears to consist of answers to various questions, rev ealed in no particular order.\nOf course, both of these positions remain mere speculation. The history of the revelation of the Kitab-i Aqdas has yet to be written. But, it is virtually certain that it could easily be written by consulting the original text of the book and the documents which are associated with it. Naturally, this would have to be done in the original language and by inspection of the documents at the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed World Center in Haifa.6\nBy 1873, the text of the Aqdas was substantially complete and copies were circulated in Iran. However, the last verse of the modern text, verse 190 (the second prohibition on the use of opium7), was not revealed along with the rest of the book. Indeed, this last verse was not added to the text until 1890, when Mirza Muhammad-'Ali arranged for the first printing of the Kitab-i Aqdas in Bombay. Earlier (hand-copied) versions of the Aqdas which had circulated in Iran did not include this final verse.8\nBeyond this addition of a final verse, however, the Aqdas continued to be amended and supplemented by Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h in the Questions and Answers, which is virtually an integral part of the Most Holy Book itself. Indeed, a reading of Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h's answers (without the questions) gives the same feel as a reading of the latter parts of the Aqdas itself. It seems to be that the Holy Book itself was compiled in the same method as were the Questions and Answers, except that in the text of the Aqdas, we are not given the questions!\nIt seems to me, that in Muslim context, with those involved being familiar with the Qur'an and the manner of its revelation, this development of the Aqdas would have seemed perfectly normal. After all, the Qur'an is not a continuous narrative, exhibits no organization, and was simply revealed by the Prophet as the occasion demanded. For Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h, and for the early believers, it probably seemed appropriate that the Mother Book of the Bah\u00e1'\u00ed revelation would also be revealed in short pieces over years, and that it would develop as a compilation of holy verses.\nIn any case, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h continued to expand and supplement the Kitab-i Aqdas after 1873, not only with the Questions and Answers, but with the revelation of other Tablets and supplementary texts bearing on Bah\u00e1'\u00ed law. In his Tablet of Splendors (Ishraqat), for example, the eighth Ishraq is explicitly made a part of the Aqdas:\nThis passage, now written by the Pen of Glory, is accounted as part of the Most Holy Book . . .9\nIndeed, according to Shoghi Effendi, Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h continued to elaborate, to elucidate, and to supplement the provisions of the Most Holy Book \"until the last days of His earthly life.\"10 It would seem that, according to the Guardian, the Aqdas was never regarded by Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h as fixed or complete.\nBeyond this, of course, the laws of the Kitab-i Aqdas have continued to develop in an organic manner through the application and interpretation of 'Abdu'l-Bah\u00e1, and later, of Shoghi Effendi. Bah\u00e1'\u00ed laws continues to be modified and expanded through the present-day legislation of the Universal House of Justice.\nThe Uncreated Qur'an vs. the Dynamic Aqdas\nIt is a fundamental tenet of (at least Sunni) Islam that the Qur'an is \"uncreated.\" That is, the doctrine insists that the Holy Book was not created by God, but has existed from all eternity (in Arabic) as a fixed and unchanging guide for human behavior. As such, the laws of the Qur'an are regarded as a rigid blueprint for human life. As a consequence, an elaborate and detailed system of Muslim law has developed which purports to provide a guide to human behavior in every possible situation.\nOn the contrary, it is the thesis of this paper that Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h did not intend his Holy Book to be understood in this manner. Indeed, the laws of the Aqdas developed and changed even in Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h's lifetime, and certainly afterward. Rather, it is my contention that Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h intended by the revelation of the Aqdas to offer the \"choice wine\" of upright and ethical conduct embodied in general principles and examples of beneficial law. That Bah\u00e1'u'll\u00e1h himself regarded these laws as flexible can be demonstrated.",

        "raw_content": "Yesterday, we talked about the need for a scripted call taking process and specifically \u201cwhat you can expect during our visit to your home\u201d. Most companies just find a time that\u2019s available and book the call. No relationship or value building. Nothing to give the customer an idea of what\u2019s going to happen when the technician gets there. As well, the script makes it very clear there is a diagnostic fee. Some of you might balk at that but the reality is that it costs you money to pay the tech to get to the customer\u2019s house. There\u2019s the overhead associated with your vehicle too. (Gas, insurance, wear and tear, etc.)\nYes, some customers are going to object and believe it or not, that\u2019s a good thing. We want them to know that it is going to cost some money to have one of your professionally trained technicians come to their house. For review, here\u2019s the \u201cwhat you can expect\u201d script again:\nCSR: Let me share what to expect during our visit to your home today. I\u2019ll be sending you a fully trained technician in a truck loaded with thousands of parts so he can do the repair then and there rather than go back and forth to the parts supplier on your dime. When he gets to your home he\u2019s going to do a complete diagnostic to find out the source of the problem as well as a free safety inspection of your entire system.\nThen he\u2019s going to sit down with you and share your options and give you a \u201cyou choose\u201d price, right down to the penny BEFORE any work is done, that way you can choose what is the best option for your home. Now to get our fully trained technician in his truck loaded with thousands of parts to your home, we charge a small diagnostic fee of only $99.00. Work is payable upon completion. We take VISA, MasterCard, Cash or Email Money Transfer. Can I make a not of how you will be taking care of that?\u201d\nNow you\u2019re going to probably get some objections and they are:\nWhy do I have to pay a diagnostic fee, I already know what the problem is.\nJoe\u2019s plumbing doesn\u2019t charge a diagnostic fee.\nWhat? $99 just to come out to my house?\nThe best approach when overcoming these objections is to pretend they didn\u2019t hear you. That\u2019s right. Assume they didn\u2019t hear a word you just said and re-read the entire script to the customer but at the end of the script you need to add the following words, \u201cThat\u2019s correct, there is a diagnostic fee to send our fully trained technician to your house.\u201d\nYou will often get one of the aforementioned objections again and the reason you are getting them is that your Chuck in a Truck, Dan in a Van, Cheap Charlie competitors don\u2019t charge a diagnostic fee and the customer can\u2019t understand why you do. And here\u2019s how you respond:\nCSR \u2013 I understand that you believe you know what the problem is however to properly diagnose the today\u2019s repair, we still need to have our fully trained and licensed technician identify the cause of the problem. Often there is an underlying reason for the breakdown that only a fully trained technician would be aware of. But don\u2019t you think that $99 is a small price to pay for a fully trained technician in a fully stocked truck loaded with thousands of parts where he can do the repair immediately saving you time and money? I have an opening at 1:oo PM today. Would you like to book the call?\nJoe\u2019s Plumbing Doesn\u2019t Charge a Diagnostic fee!\nCSR \u2013 I wonder why they would come out to your house for free, I mean nobody works for free, do they? (Pause for five seconds. Let that sink in with your customer.) Maybe they\u2019re desperate for the work but probably they have buried their diagnostic fee into their pricing. At ABC Heating and Air, we are up front with all our pricing so our customers can make an informed choice. I have an opening available today at 1:00 PM. Would you like to book the call?\nI understand your frustration and I\u2019ve put your call on immediate priority. These kinds of breakdowns happen when we least expect it and I know how you feel. We\u2019re sending a fully trained technician in a truck stocked with thousands of parts so he can repair the issue right then and there. I have an opening at 1:00 PM and when my technician arrives he can show you how to get that diagnostic fee reduced for today\u2019s repair. Would you like to book that call?\nIt\u2019s all about having a structured process in place. Don\u2019t be afraid of charging a diagnostic fee. Remember, what matters most to people is time \u2026 not money. How soon can you get to the house? What\u2019s going to happen when you get here? I just want this problem fixed!\nBuild the value. Show them how you\u2019re different and better! Now go have a profitable Wednesday!",

        "raw_content": "Transcript 65: Dust in the Wind\nMy name is Claude Call, and my mic is working this time, baby. Yes it is.\nHave I got some trivia for ye this time around! What song from the TV show Sesame Street managed to make it into the Top 20? I\u2019ll have the answer for you near the end of the show.\n[PINNACLE]\nUnlike the bands The Bay City Rollers, who are from Scotland, or Berlin, which is from Los Angeles, the progressive rock band Kansas is, indeed, from that part of the United States. Between 1970 and 1973 the band went through several lineup and name changes, but when guitarist and songwriter Kerry Livgren joined the band, things really started to gel and they managed to get a recording contract with Don Kirshner\u2019s label, which was called Calendar Records around the time he was producing The Archies, but which had morphed into Kirshner Records by the early 70s. Kansas had already pretty much locked in their signature sound by the time that first album came out in March of 1974. There was a little bit of boogie rock, a lot of changes to the time signatures, and symphonic arrangements punctuated by Robby Steinhardt playing the violin. And Steinhardt\u2019s playing had more of a roots-y style to it than, say, the Electric Light Orchesta, which was going for a more classical feel. For the next couple of years\u2014and the next couple of albums, Kansas had more of a cult following. At that time, the primary songwriter was Steve Walsh, but after three albums he was starting to run a little dry, so Kerry Livgren helped fill in the gaps. They opened their fourth album, titled Leftoverture, with a song that was intended to be a sequel to the last track on their previous album.\n[CARRY ON WAYWARD SON]\n\u201cCarry On Wayward Son\u201d was released as a single and it was the band\u2019s first big hit, reaching Number Eleven on the Billboard Hot 100 the week of April 2, 1977. And so far as I know it\u2019s the band\u2019s only single to chart in the UK, peaking at Number 51 there. I\u2019m pretty convinced that it didn\u2019t do better in the US because there were just a lot of monster-size hits going on at that time creating a logjam in the Top 20. Barbara Streisand\u2019s \u201cEvergreen\u201d was just ending its domination of the charts, \u201cHotel California\u201d was ascending, Steve Miller\u2019s \u201cFly Like an Eagle\u201d was only just starting to drop, Hall & Oates was on top with \u201cRich Girl\u201d, and some of the other songs in the Top 20 had been there for weeks, so the chart was churning very slowly. I don\u2019t know that it would have gone to Number One, but in a weaker field it would have done much better, I think. At any rate, Leftoverture was their breakout album and Kansas became a major headline act.\n[POINT OF KNOW RETURN]\nWhen Kansas went back into the studio to record their fifth album, titled Point of Know Return\u2014and that\u2019s K-N-O-W, Know Return, Steve Walsh left the band briefly. Later on in a radio interview he admitted that he was starting to turn into a bit of a prima donna and was looking at a solo career. This left a lot of the heavy lifting for the songwriting on Kerry Livgren again. Walsh eventually returned to the band to contribute some of the songwriting, including that title track, but it was Livgren who was feeling the pressure to come up with the hit song that would follow up \u201cCarry On Wayward Son\u201d.\n[FINGER LOOP]\n\u201cDust in the Wind\u201d started out when Livgren, who was primarily an electric guitar player, was trying to improve his acoustic guitar skills, and so he would practice this style of fingerpicking called \u201cTravis Picking,\u201d which was named after country guitarist Merle Travis. Travis Picking involves playing a steady rhythm of bass notes with your thumb while your index and middle fingers play the melody on the higher strings. So the guitar line on \u201cDust in the Wind\u201d was really just a finger exercise that Livgren had put together to practice his Travis Picking. But as he practiced, his wife Vicci would walk by and she kept telling him, \u201cHoney, you should do something with that, that\u2019s pretty.\u201d And that struck him as interesting, because she would rarely comment on the stuff he did. So he put together a melody, which came together very quickly.\nThe band was on literally the last day of rehearsal for the Point of Know Return album, when their producer, Jeff Glixman, asked if they had any more songs.\nNow, Livgren was reluctant to play this song for the band because it was acoustic, and not especially representative of Kansas at all, so he finally played it for his bandmates. In an interview with John Bowes, he recalled that after he played the song, \u201cThere was kind of a dead silence. And I thought, they don\u2019t like it. And the guys all piped up, they said \u2018Where\u2019s this song been?\u2019\u201d Again, Livgren protested that it was just a finger exercise, but they talked him into using the song on the album.\n[DUST IN THE WIND]\nThe lyrics themselves are haunting, but they\u2019re still pretty straightforward. Livgren has said in interviews that the initial inspiration for \u201cDust in the Wind\u201d was a book of Native American poetry he\u2019d been reading, which included the specific line \u201cfor all we are is dust in the wind.\u201d That particular line struck him hard, and had him thinking about the value of material possessions and success. Essentially, no matter what our accomplishments or what we manage to accumulate, we still all wind up back in the ground. This philosophy is echoed in a lot of places, including the Bible, where it appears in Genesis, Chapter 3 verse 19, where we get the common phrase \u201cdust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return,\u201d and in the book of Ecclesiastes, Chapter 3, where it reads \u201cAll go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all return.\u201d It also appears in the 12th Century Japanese epic The Tale of the Heike, which has in its opening paragraph the phrase, \u201cYea, the proud ones are but for a moment, like an evening dream in springtime. The mighty are destroyed at the last, they are but as the dust before the wind.\u201d\nA huge chunk of the band isn\u2019t even on the track. Livgren is on one guitar, Rich Williams is on the other, and Robby Steinhardt is playing both string parts, violin and viola. There\u2019s no bass on the record, and no percussion except at the very end of the song, in the fadeout, where Phil Ehart does a little bit on the congas.\nNot only was it their first acoustic song, it\u2019s arguably one of the most popular acoustic rock recordings ever. It got all kinds of airplay on Top 40 stations, Album Oriented Rock stations, Adult Contemporary stations, Country stations, Soft Rock stations\u2026it was everywhere for a bit. The song peaked at Number Six on the Billboard Hot 100, making it their biggest single, and it was in the Top Five in Canada, and a hit in a few pockets in Europe. Guitarist Rich Williams said a few years ago that, in retrospect, the band took some heat because they appeared to be selling out. In an interview marking the album\u2019s 35th anniversary, he said, \u201cWhat about \u2018Dust in the Wind\u2019 was mimicking anything to do with the mainstream? That was an absolute fluke that it was a hit. We had no idea it was going to be talked about 35 years later. It was only a hit because it\u2026was a great song. Even a blind pig finds a truffle once in awhile.\u201d\nIt\u2019s time to answer today\u2019s trivia question! Back on Page Two I asked you to identify a song that originated on the children\u2019s show Sesame Street that made it into the Top 20. I\u2019m willing to bet that most of you guessed this song:\n[Mah N\u00e0 Mah N\u00e0 MUPPETS]\nAnd that would be a big fat \u201cNo,\u201d for a couple of reasons. First, \u201cMah N\u00e0 Mah N\u00e0\u201d was released in 1968, by Piero Umiliani so it pre-dates Sesame Street by a year.\n[UMILIANI]\nThe other reason is that it only went to Number 55 on the Billboard Chart. What\u2019s more, it was used in Sesame Street, but it was also used for blackout sketches on The Red Skelton Show and on The Benny Hill Show.\nThis is the song that did the feat:\n[RUBBER DUCKIE]\nRubber Duckie! was, of course, sung by the Muppet Ernie in the show. His voice at the time was provided by Jim Henson, the inventor of the Muppets, and the song actually made it to the Number 16 slot on the Hot 100 in September of 1970, about one year after the show debuted. Given that my brothers and I were small kids at the time and therefore part of the show\u2019s target audience, I may have had a copy, but frankly I don\u2019t remember.\nAnd, that\u2019s it for another edition of How Good It Is. If you\u2019re liking the show, share it with someone you love. If you\u2019re not liking it, share it anyway as your revenge on someone you hate.\nNext time around, we\u2019re going to find out How Good It Is when we\u2019re Heroes\u2026but just for one day.",

        "raw_content": "by Victoria Piccoli\nInterview with Anderson Le, Director of Programming at HIFF\nFor some going to the movies is a hobby but for Anderson Le, the Director of Programming at Hawaii International Film Festival (HIFF) watching movies is a fulltime job. Anderson has been the programming director for HIFF since 2002, where he has been traveling all around the world to other film festivals and film markets to find new films to show at HIFF.\nThis year\u2019s multi-cultural films come from countries in Asia, the Pacific Rim, North America and Europe but the \u2018New Frontiers Program\u2019 is focusing on exploring Islamic communities from countries around the world. Challenging audiences to watch movies outside their comfort zone and allowing others to learn about a different culture through film are Anderson\u2019s goals when picking films for HIFF.\nThe Kalamalama sat down with Anderson Le for more detail on his job, how he chooses films and HIFF.\nCould you tell me about your job?\nMy official role is Director of Programing and basically I am in charge of the overall film program for the festival. Just taking the lead on choosing the film for every section. So we have a programming team that is in charge of different sections but I have the final say.\nWhat are you looking for when you choose films?\nFor a person who chooses films for a film festival it is very important to choose films that would suit the taste of your audience. So with Hawaii being an unique place, its different from lets say Illinois, we have a multicultural make up. So we have a strong influence from Asia and the Pacific Rim so it really is just catering to your audience. But, at the same time with film festivals you kind of want to challenge your audience. So you want to choose films that they might not see or may not be familiar with. Say, for example, we have a section of films about Islamic communities around the world \u2013 so that\u2019s not a subject that is very well known here in every day life Hawaii. So, that\u2019s why you want to provide this window to different cultures and different ways of life. In a way it\u2019s kind of like going on a tour around the world and experiencing all these different cultures.\nWhen did you start picking the films for this year?\nI actually travel to different festivals and other film markets. First half of the year I am always on the road, I go to Sundance (Parkcity, UT), Cannes (Cannes, France), South by Southwest (Austin, TX) and all these major festivals. I am always trying to look for the new films out there. Seeing and following what the new trends are and what film projects are. Just pick and choose what would be good for my festival.\nHow do you get in contact with the film markers?\nI have been doing it for a while so there is a big rolodex of film distributers and film makers I know, different film companies that I approach. So we all, in the film festival world and film communities \u2013 about 300 to 500 professionals where we all know each other. When I go to the festivals we kind of see the same faces. It\u2019s more like camp; you always see the same faces. I have friends from Japan or France that I see more often than my family because we are always on the circuit. That\u2019s how we know each other and how we communicate with each other. Try to make deals and have them show their films here or there.\nHow do you choose the films from Hawaii?\nWe have an open call for entries; it\u2019s like college admission. You know, submit your film and have a cover letter and fill out a form. We have a committee that reviews everything and we rate it and it goes through different cuts. With Hawaii being such a small close-knit community, we kind of know what is out there already. We kind of know who is making what film, so we expect to see it next year or we just take tally\u2019s on who is doing what so it is pretty close knit. We are very serious about promoting and supporting local films so we take great consideration. It goes through a long process, different people view it, we discuss it and debate if it is worthy to present at the festival.\nIs there anything at HIFF that is super new?\nI think what is super new is the creative lab, a series of master classes and workshops we have where professionals come in. They are here from Hollywood, L.A. or New York wherever and just kind of giving their guidance to people who are interested in film or interested in working in film. We have these accelerator programs where there is a call for entries process where we choose 12 scripts and those participate in this workshop. We work with different guilds in L.A. like the writers guild of America. So the winners will be flown to L.A. and have different meetings with different studios and all that stuff. It\u2019s kind of like career development. We are trying to expand our education and career development components in festivals so that festivals are not just about showing films it is about movie culture in general. From someone who can appreciate movies or to someone who is really interested in making movies.\nI think my favorite thing is when I discover a filmmaker and show their film at the festival \u2013 it is really well attended and people just love it. The filmmakers are in attendance and that energy it is amazing. One of my key programs that we are showing this year is called Halloween, we are doing a double feature of this New Zealand comedy, and we will have the two stars and their director there.",

        "raw_content": "The parish of St Martin\nAncient toilet and Elizabethan illustrations among the historic treasures surviving in Exeter\u2019s oldest buildings\nAn ancient toilet, Elizabethan wall illustrations and Victorian wallpaper are among the historic treasures surviving in Exeter\u2019s oldest buildings, new research shows.\nThe Royal Clarence fire a year ago meant the loss of a key part of the city\u2019s past. But a study carried out following the disaster shows important evidence about Exeter\u2019s history can still be found in the area surrounding the hotel.\nDr Todd Gray MBE, from the University of Exeter, has examined the continual renovation, redevelopment and adaption over seven centuries of the parish of St Martin \u2013 the area between Cathedral Green and the High Street, now mostly shops. Dr Gray has studied who owned the buildings and their various roles over the years.\nThe area was mainly owned by the Dean and Chapter of Exeter Cathedral (and a group of other religious bodies), but after the Reformation buildings were rented in order to raise revenue. Some of the shop buildings in Cathedral Yard date from the 16th century and others are earlier.\nRenovations after the fire in number 41 High Street, home to Laura Ashley since 1984, mean some painted decorations from the late 16th century in upstairs rooms are now more visible. Others are in storerooms including a male figure with a hawk, and St George with his dragon. There is also a toilet, thought to date from the Elizabethan era. The current building dates from 1564 and was occupied by a series of apothecaries (chemists), most notably Hinton Lake, nearly continuously from 1660 to 1974.\nSome historical features have been preserved by accident \u2013 46 High Street, now Thorntons - has not been lived in for nearly 150 years and the last occupiers\u2019 Victorian wallpaper remains on the wall of an upstairs\u2019 room.\nThe research, published in a new book commissioned by Historic England, entitled St Martin\u2019s Island: An introductory history of forty-two Exeter buildings, shows the diversity of architecture in the small area. The buildings range from Laura Ashley, a towering Elizabethan tradesman\u2019s home or shop constructed in 1564, Card Factory, built in 1883 in a Gothic style in a nod to the cathedral, and Santander, a mock-Elizabethan building constructed in 1907. The quality of the buildings show Exeter\u2019s prosperity, and the affluence of this part of the city.\nDr Gray said: \u201cEveryone was so shocked by the fire, and we all felt a sense of loss. It also made us remember how fragile our ancient buildings are, and I hope we all now appreciate those left more. Exeter lost a third of its ancient buildings during blitz, and now with redevelopment, fire and other destruction there are even less left. But they are still there. It would be lovely if more people looked up as they shopped in the high street to see the archaeological treasures above them.\u201d\nParticular trades dominated some buildings. Dr Gray has found 59 to 60 High Street and 24 Cathedral Yard have been involved in banking since the 1830s and 15 Cathedral Yard has been an inn, or hotel, for more than 250 years. For several generations in the Victorian period Number 40 High Street was Exeter\u2019s Italian delicatessen.\nThe parish of St Martin was left untouched during the Exeter Blitz and twentieth-century losses were nearly all caused by developers; this included several Cathedral Yard buildings that were protected by law but were nevertheless demolished.\nNumber 43, now Costa Coffee, has been used by number of traders including glove sellers, booksellers, drapers, stationers, grocers and jewellers. It was listed in 1974. The shop was built in the fifteenth century as a pair to Number 44. An extra storey was added in either the later seventeenth or early eighteenth century. The flat roofline of the fa\u00e7ade disguises the pitched roof behind it. Records show shopkeepers lived in the building. The fa\u00e7ade was given an \u201cimposing new front\u201d in the 1930s. By then the building had been \u2018rebuilt on up-to-date lines\u201d and operated as Pinder & Tuckwell for fifty years.\nNumber 39, now Sketchers, was owned by St James\u2019 Priory until 1444. It was then acquired by a Cambridge college, served as a goldsmith\u2019s shop through most of the 1700s, housed a circulating library in the early 1800s and became a bakery in 1890, which sold Eurissa, \u2018a new bread, a white bread and best bread on earth\u2019, which had been developed by W. A. Wrenn of Exeter\u201d.",

We stand with our friends and our allies. And above all else, we've shown that the United States of America will do what's right, and so we have.\u201d\nIn taking this action, said Mr. Kushner, the United States has \u201cchosen to strengthen the bond between\u201d the U.S. and Israel. \u201cThis bond is forged through shared history, sustained through shared interests, and immortalized through shared principles.\u201d\n\u201cThe United States stands with Israel because we both believe in freedom. We stand together because we both believe in human rights. We stand together because we believe democracy is worth defending. And the United States stands with Israel because we believe -- we know that is the right thing to do,\u201d declared Mr. Kushner.\n\u201cIsrael proves every day the boundless power of freedom. This land is the only land in the Middle East in which Jews, Muslims and Christians and people of all faiths participate and worship freely according to their beliefs,\u201d said Mr. Kushner.\nThe United States remains committed to lasting peace and is prepared to support a peace agreement in every way that it can, said Mr. Kushner. \u201cWe believe that it is possible for both sides to gain more than they give so that all people can live in peace, safe from danger, free from fear and able to pursue their dreams.\u201d\nThe United States recognizes the sensitivity surrounding Jerusalem and continues to call on all parties to maintain the status quo of Jerusalem's holy sites.\nAs Israel turns 70, the search for a lasting peace turns over a new leaf, said Mr. Kushner:\n\u201cI believe peace is within reach if we dare to believe that the future can be different from the past,\u201d said Mr. Kushner, \u201cIt will not be an easy road, and it will be filled with difficult moments and tough decisions.

        "raw_content": "Byetta Lawsuits\nByetta, or exenatide, is an injectable diabetes medication that has been linked to acute pancreatitis. Diabetic patients who have suffered harm after taking Byetta are often entitled to recover compensation for medical expenses, emotional burdens and other factors. In the event the patient dies because of Byetta use, family members or heirs of the victim sometimes can receive compensation for negligent cause of death.\nPersonal injury lawyers can help you determine if you are eligible to file a personal injury or wrongful death claim related to Byetta. Be sure to contact a personal injury attorney immediately, before the statutes of limitations expire.\nCompensation for Byetta Side Effects\nVictims of Byetta defects may be able to receive compensatory damages, which are meant to compensate victims for medical bills, lost income, lost opportunities, and pain and suffering. In some cases, they may also receive punitive damages.\nByetta has been linked to acute pancreatitis, which includes the following symptoms:\nSwollen, tender abdomen\nByetta, a.k.a. \"Lizard Spit\"\nByetta has been nicknamed \"Lizard Spit\" because the protein used in the medication is a synthetic version of a protein derived from the saliva of the Gila monster \u0097 the only venomous lizard native to the United States.\nResearchers have found the Gila monster hormone is about 50 percent identical to a hormone found in the human digestive tract, which is why it can help patients prevent spikes in their blood sugar levels. The hormone also delays stomach emptying, leading to a decrease in appetite.\nFamily members of a Byetta victim who dies as a result of Byetta-related pancreatitis may be eligible to file a survivor claim as a continuation of the victim's personal injury claim. In addition, family members or heirs can file wrongful death claims to receive compensation for medical and funeral expenses, lost future income and emotional suffering.\nFiling a Byetta Lawsuit\nByetta is a type 2 diabetes drug that controls blood glucose levels. It has been linked to life-threatening pancreatic problems, including hemorrhagic and necrotizing pancreatitis. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has received more than 30 reports of acute pancreatitis in Byetta users, as well as two deaths and four hospitalizations for pancreatic problems.\nMany claim the manufacturers of Byetta, Amylin Pharmaceuticals and Eli Lilly and Company, inadequately highlighted the risks associated with usage of the drug. Drug manufacturers who fail to properly warn victims of side effects may be held accountable under strict liability for product defects laws, which do not require negligence to be proven.\nA Better Byetta\nSeveral pharmaceutical companies are working on developing a longer-acting-release (LAR) formula of Byetta that would forgo the need for twice-daily injections. Trials have shown the LAR version is twice as effective at controlling blood sugar levels, and promotes less nausea and higher amounts of weight loss.\nIn addition, researchers at the National Institutes of Health are experimenting with a gene therapy-based administration of exenatide (the generic name for Byetta), which would eliminate the need for injections. Many researchers believe the LAR version of Byetta would also severely decrease the risk of acute pancreatitis and several other adverse side effects.\nPatients suffering from Byetta's side effects should contact a doctor, as well as a personal injury attorney, as soon as possible. Family members who have lost a loved one due to the deadly side effects of Byetta should speak with an attorney to advise on fatal injury claims. Lawyers who have experience filing defective drug claims are able to identify components that build strong claims against drug manufacturers, including expert testimony. Many defective drug lawyers recommend victims join a class action lawsuit, which has the potential to award millions of dollars to victims.

        "raw_content": "Tag: London Art and Antiques Unit\nAn Uncertain Future for the Art & Antiques Squad\nA fake work of art created by Shaun Greenhalgh, which was purported to be a sculpture by Gauguin. It was revealed thanks to uncovering the Greenhalgh family forgeries\nSome troubling news in London reveals that Scotland Yard may see an uncertain future for its Art and Antiques Unit. The offices who had been assigned to the unit have been reallocated to investigating the Grenfell Tower tragedy. This is a shame, as the unit is one of the world\u2019s longest-running art crime policing units, with some terrific prosecutions of note, including the Jonathan Tokeley-Parry conviction (which set the stage for the Fred Schultz conviction in the United States), the discovery of the myriad art frauds committed by the Bolton Forgers, and many other notable initiatives.\nMartin Bailey reported for the Art Newspaper that:\nVernon Rapley, who led the Art and Antiques Unit from 2001 until 2010, told The Art Newspaper that he is \u201cworried that the closure of the unit is now being considered\u201d. He added: \u201cI am very concerned that the Metropolitan Police is unable to give assurances on when the three detectives who have been temporarily reassigned will be returned to the unit.\u201d\nThe three officers are detective constables Philip Clare, Sophie Hayes and Ray Swan. There is currently no detective sergeant responsible for the unit, following the departure of Claire Hutcheon last March.\nJames Pickford in the Financial Times also noted the importance of the unit to the United Kingdom\u2019s licit art trade:\nDick Ellis, founder and former head of the art squad, said: \u201cTo close \u2014 if it is to be closed \u2014 a small but very specialised unit at Scotland Yard, which is there among other things to assist other countries, is madness.\u201d He added the squad had been closed once before, in 1984, for budgetary reasons, but reopened again in 1989 following pressure from other international forces and the art market. One issue at the centre of concerns about the possible closure of the Met art unit is the fight to prevent looted or stolen antiquities from the Middle East being used to fund terrorism. The unit works with overseas forces to identify illicit trafficking of cultural goods, and can take action when UK-based dealers and auctioneers relay their suspicions about objects of questionable provenance. It also maintains the London stolen arts database, which stores information and images of 54,000 items of stolen property. The UK had a 21 per cent share of the $56bn global art market by value in 2016, second only to the US with 40 per cent, according to research by Arts Economics, a consultancy. One art market professional who had dealt regularly with the Met art unit over the past decade described its detectives as \u201cdedicated and knowledgeable\u201d. \u201cIf that unit is lost it would be a great concern for the art market,\u201d they said.\nMartin Bailey, Scotland Yard\u2019s Art and Antiques Unit heading for closure, The Art Newspaper (Aug. 16, 2017), http://theartnewspaper.com/news/closure-of-scotland-yard-s-art-and-antiques-unit-now-being-considered/.\nJames Pickford, Warning over break-up of Scotland Yard specialist art unit (Aug. 0, 2017), https://www.ft.com/content/53a4d768-82a2-11e7-94e2-c5b903247afd.\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on August 17, 2017 Categories Antiquities, ProsecutionTags London Art and Antiques UnitLeave a comment on An Uncertain Future for the Art & Antiques Squad\nVernon Rapley Leaves the Metropolitan Police for the V&A\nAccording to a report by the Art Newspaper, the V&A museum has hired Detective Sergeant Vernon Rapley away from Scotland Yard\u2019s art and antiques. The V&A is a massive museum, which has been difficult to safely secure in the past. Here\u2019s to hoping he can continue to improve the V&A\u2019s security. From the Art Newspaper:\nHe joins the museum on 21 June, to take charge of security and visitor services. Before turning to art, Rapley investigated murder, paedophilia and child abuse at the Metropolitan Police. He really got to know the V&A in 2004, when there was a spate of thefts at major London museums. The V&A was hit three times, and 38 rooms had to be shut, many for years, while security was upgraded. Supported by the V&A, the Yard set up the London Museum Security Group. Rapley even took a turn as guest curator earlier this year, when he organised a Scotland Yard-curated display at the museum on fakes and forgeries, which spotlighted the case of the Greenhalgh family from Bolton, who created objects ranging from Egyptian antiquities to modern paintings.\nV&A gets its own personal detective | The Art Newspaper, (2010), http://www.theartnewspaper.com/articles/V&A-gets-its-own-personal-detective/21044 (last visited Jun 9, 2010).\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on June 9, 2010 Categories UncategorizedTags Art Theft, Bolton Forgers, Forgery, London Art and Antiques Unit, Victoria And Albert MuseumLeave a comment on Vernon Rapley Leaves the Metropolitan Police for the V&A\nGreek Icon Returned\nThis 14th century icon was returned to Greece this week, 30 years after it was stolen from a monastary in Serres, Northern Greece. The work was recovered by the Art and Antiques Squad in 2002.\nFrom Helena Smith\u2019s piece in the Guardian:\nIt emerged in London in 1980 when a British Byzantinist, Professor Robin Cormack, spotted it in a suitcase in a restorer\u2019s atelier. It had been touched up by the looters to make it more saleable in the underground art market.\n\u201cIt had been cut in two by the looters. Seeing what it was, Robin realised it must have been stolen and advised them to return it to Greece,\u201d said the cultural attache at the Greek embassy in London, Victoria Solomonides, who travelled with the icon to Greece.\n\u201cThat did not happen and 10 years later the plot thickened when he was called by the British Museum to value an icon. It was the same one.\u201d\nOn the advice of Cormack, curator of the Byzantium exhibition currently on at the Royal Academy of Arts, the British Museum decided not to buy the icon.\nIt seems then in 2002 a Greek art dealer offered to sell the work to the Benakis Museum in Athens for \u00a3500,000. It seems the High Court has ordered the return of the work in a proceeding \u201cSix weeks ago\u201d. I\u2019ve attempted to track donw the ruling this morning on baili.org, but I suspect the ruling is unpublished. If any of my kind UK readers could confirm this, I would be most grateful.\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on November 20, 2008 Categories RepatriationTags Art Theft, Greece, High Court in London, London Art and Antiques Unit, United KingdomLeave a comment on Greek Icon Returned\nArt-Beat Constables\nMartin Bailey of the Art Newspaper has the story of Scotland Yard\u2019s part-time volunteer officers which have been tasked with policing art theft, the sale of looted antiquities, forgery and fraud.\nArtBeat began in January 2007, and there are currently 13 special constables (six males and seven females). These include two from national museums, three from the Art Loss Register, three archaeologists with the remainder from a variety of institutions. The two from museums are Zoe Jackman of the V&A (see below) and Michael Lewis of the British Museum, where he is deputy head of the Portable Antiquities Scheme.\nThe Art and Antiques Unit needs all the manpower it can get. Last year Scotland Yard proposed halving the staff of its Art and Antiques Unit, which had four officers. In the end, the cuts did not proceed and funding has been confirmed for the current financial year. Nevertheless, resources are tight and having 13 part-time special constables for two days a month is equivalent to one extra full-time officer. Inspector Alan Seldon told us: \u201cThere are only four officers in the unit. The scheme expands what we can do, and enhances our capability.\u201d He wants to encourage more recruits from the London art scene.\nThis seems to be a good idea generally, and if it helps the Arts and Antiques Unit, that must be a good thing. But its no substitute for an open and honest market in art and antiquities.\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on October 31, 2008 Categories AntiquitiesTags Art Beat Constables, London, London Art and Antiques Unit2 Comments on Art-Beat Constables\nMore on the Bolton forgers (UPDATE)\nPeter Nahum has an excellent editorial in the Art Newspaper titled \u201cHow I was duped by the Bolton forgers\u201c. Nahum, the director of the Leicester Galleries in London details the fraud in 1990\n[S]he wished to sell a painting by the Scottish Colourist, Samuel John Peploe, which she had inherited from her grandfather who had owned an art gallery. This was confirmed by a label on the reverse: \u201cThe Metcalfe Gallery, 45 Dundas Street, Edinburgh\u201d. She arranged for her husband to bring the painting to the gallery after 6pm and stated that she wanted cash\u2026 In the middle of that night I woke up and realised it was almost certainly a fake.\nIn fact he wasn\u2019t duped, as he cancelled the check quickly and reported the incident to the police. It seems the Greenhalgh\u2019s had built quite a reputation for passing forged art, but it wasn\u2019t until 2006 that the Greenhalgh\u2019s were finally raided. The troubling aspect of this case is the fact that these individuals were suspected art forgers, yet the state of the market is such that legitimate works cannot be distinguished from forgeries sold by known art forgers. The clear indication is that there needs to be a radical shift in the way the art market guarantees authenticity and title. Either a centralized database, or some kind of title insuring mechanism is sorely needed to prevent this kind of fraud.\nOne wonders how often dealers suspect the dubious nature of a work, but because a forgery may be of such a high quality, they reason that members of the public would not suspect. Nahum\u2019s statement on this is quite telling I think:\nThe point about the Greenhalgh case \u2026 is that what seems to be a rock solid provenance can distract the expert\u2019s eye from careful assessment. Every cloud has a silver lining; although I have sometimes lost money tracking down fakers and reporting them, I have gained another arrow in my street-smart quiver. Never trust a provenance until it can be verified. Trust your eye and instinct, your personal researches and any reliable expert on the subject you can consult.\nAt a minimum, the relevant law enforcement personnel should have circulated the names of the Greenhalgh\u2019s among the dealing community to prevent further fraud. The understaffed Art and Antiques Unit was slow in responding as well it would seem. Another difficulty is the ambiguity which the term \u201cprovenance\u201d encompasses. If courts in the UK had a wider sampling of cases with which to grapple, perhaps a firm conception of the term would emerge, however these cases occur relatively infrequently. As such, we are relying on industry practice to define the boundaries of \u201cgood provenance\u201d and that has produced a deeply unsatisfying system.\nJamie Grace, a friend and researcher at the University of Derby emailed me with some very interesting thoughts on this situation:\nThe sale of a forgery (and the resale of stolen art in general) would cause difficulties for DACS the agency that attempts to administer the Artist\u2019s Resale Rights Regulation 2006. I support your call for an authenticity database \u2013 from my perspective, it could be linked to another mandatory database detailing sales, making the administration of the 2006 Regulations for the benefit of contemporary artists a lot easier.\nAs for the Art & Antiques Unit, restrictions on a researcher\u2019s \u2018right to know\u2019 under the Data Protection Act 1998 and the Freedom of Information Act 2000 means that for \u2018operational reasons\u2019 the Unit cannot divulge many details about recovered or stolen works or art (or antiques etc.) \u2013 so a curious or suspicious art market professional cannot even go straight to the Unit to check provenance. Allowances are hard to make for the reasons of understaffing when the legal framework itself defeats the aims of sensible dealers.\nJamie knows far more about DACS than I do. From what I understand it is essentially a scheme which takes a small portion of the sale of works of art and distributes it among contemporary artists. I hope to hear more from him on that in the coming months here.\nI\u2019ll confess I was unaware of the implications of the Data Protection Act and the Freedom of Information Act, but they only seem to be undercutting the work of the Unit in this case.\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on January 17, 2008 Categories UncategorizedTags Art Theft, Bolton Forgers, Forgery, London Art and Antiques Unit, provenance1 Comment on More on the Bolton forgers (UPDATE)\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on July 23, 2007 Categories UncategorizedTags Art Theft, Coins, Dick Ellis, Lincoln's Inn theft, London Art and Antiques Unit, market overt, Norman Palmer3 Comments on Coins, Country Houses and Law Enforcement\nA Magritte is Recovered\nMagritte\u2019s Les Reflets du Temps has been recovered. The work had been stolen from storage in 2006. The work may be worth up to \u00a3350,000. The work was discovered by a member of the public who checked it against the London Stolen Art Database. This is welcome news, and perhaps will give pause before planned cuts the the Art and Antiques unit take place.\nDet Supt Vernon Rapley, head of the unit, said: \u201cFor anyone considering buying art, antiquities or cultural property the database is an invaluable resource to help buyers check that they aren\u2019t being sold stolen items.\n\u201cI am really pleased that the database has enabled this Magritte to be found so that the victim can have it returned to them.\u201d\nExactly right, but the website explicitly states that it should not be used for due diligence purposes. The problem with databases, is there are too many, and they are divided regionally. Ideally there would be one overarching database any prospective buyer could check.\nThere is no word either on who stole the work. Unfortunately that is often the case when stolen art like this is recovered. The thieves are long gone, and the authorities main priority (and perhaps rightly so) is the recovery of the work. This also makes it appear as if there are little or no penalties to be had for stealing works though.\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on June 22, 2007 Categories AntiquitiesTags Art Theft, Database, London Art and Antiques Unit, recovery, Rene Magritte, Stolen Art1 Comment on A Magritte is Recovered\nAuthor Derek FinchamPosted on January 4, 2007 Categories AntiquitiesTags Art Beat Constables, Art Theft, London, London Art and Antiques Unit2 Comments on Art Beat Constables",

        "raw_content": "Baltimore, Md. (October 16, 2009)\u2014World-class pianist Simone Dinnerstein, who has amazed audiences at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center and whom O Magazine describes as \u201ctimeless, meditative, utterly audacious\u201d for her interpretation of Bach\u2019s Goldberg Variations, will perform selections by Bach and Schubert at a most unlikely venue on Friday, October 23 at 11:00 a.m.: the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women (MCI-W). Ms. Dinnerstein will answer questions from the inmates following the performance.\nSince 1996, Ms. Dinnerstein has played concerts throughout the United States for the Piatigorsky Foundation, an organization dedicated to bringing classical music to non-traditional venues. Amongst the places she has played are nursing homes, schools and community centers. Most notably, Ms. Dinnerstein gave the first classical music performance in the Louisiana state prison system. Because Ms. Dinnerstein shares the BSO\u2019s vision to make classical music accessible by performing in unlikely venues, the BSO partnered with the Maryland Correctional Institution to create this unique event. The BSO and Simone Dinnerstein\u2019s joint effort to reach all members of our community affords the staff and inmates at the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women in Jessup, Md. the opportunity to enjoy one of the top pianists in the world. This partnership is made possible in part thanks to Jordan Kitts Music, which is covering a portion of the piano rental and moving fees.\n\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to allow such an icon to come inside the fence for our staff and inmates,\u201d says MCI-W Warden Carroll Parish, whose prison strives to provide countless programs and services to its population of approximately 820 women.\nBringing culturally-enhancing activities and guests into Maryland State prisons is not unprecedented. Two years ago, Patuxent Institution hosted a professional Shakespeare theatre company and well-known gospel artists such as Christopher Tate.\n\u201cWe are grateful to the Department of Correctional Services for partnering with us to make this possible. There were a lot of logistics involved\u2014such as figuring out how to get a grand piano through security,\u201d says Jeff Counts, BSO Vice President of Artistic Planning. \u201cDespite the hurdles, the Baltimore Symphony believes that all people should have access to great art and we seek to do our part to make that possible. Simone\u2019s beautifully expressive performances and winsome, down-to-earth nature will create a memorable experience for everyone present.\u201d\nSimone Dinnerstein is scheduled to perform Mozart\u2019s Piano Concerto No. 23 with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (BSO), under the direction of Louis Langr\u00e9e, on Thursday, October 22 at 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, October 25 at 3:00 p.m. at the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall and Saturday, October 24 at 8:00 p.m. at The Music Center at Strathmore.",

        "raw_content": "Cannabis and Asthma\nAsthma is an inflammatory condition that constricts the airways and causes increased mucus production. The lungs of an asthmatic are inflammed making them sensitive to a variety of triggers such as allergens or exercise. The presence of such triggers can cause further agitation leading to an asthma attack where the smooth muscles around the lungs constrict and the airways narrow resulting in wheezing and breathing difficulties.\nIt\u2019s a seemingly paradoxical idea, smoking a plant to alleviate constriction of the airways, but it works. Of course smoking it is far from the cleanest method of delivery but its been known since 1973 that THC acts as a bronchodilator because of the work of Dr. Donald Tashkin. He and his team at UCLA investigated the effects of smoked cannabis and ingested THC on the lungs and found that both methods of intake dilated the airways.\nRecently further investigation into THC\u2019s effects on the lungs by French researchers determined it can inhibit the contraction of lungs, a mechanism that many current asthma medications utilize to alleviate the condition.\nMuch of the difficulties breathing caused by asthma can be attributed to the contraction of the smooth muscle surrounding the lungs. This contraction is caused by the neurotransmitter actetylcholine, the release of which is greatly reduced when the CB1 receptor is activated. This decrease in cholinergic transmission leads to decreased muscle contractions making for easier breathing for the patient.",

        "raw_content": ": : : HomePageNewsMarriage of intelligent tech and industry expand smart machinery capabilities\nMarriage of intelligent tech and industry expand smart machinery capabilities\nFollowing a presentation by the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) on progress and results of the Smart Machinery Development Program, Premier Lai Ching-te instructed the MOEA, Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Education and Ministry of Labor to continue coordinating and guiding the efforts of industry, academia and researchers to produce innovative capabilities.\nThe ministries were also directed to assist with the development of smart manufacturing and the resolution of any shared issues facing the industries involved. Proactive steps to cultivate interdisciplinary talent and help steer the transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises will be undertaken, as well.\nSmart machinery is one of the areas promoted as part of the government\u2019s \u201cfive plus two\u201d innovative industries program, as well as an important element of President Tsai Ing-wen\u2019s policies, said the premier. The goal is to upgrade existing capabilities in precision machinery and information and communications technology to allow smart manufacturing, ultimately transforming Taiwan into the world\u2019s research, development and manufacturing center for smart machinery and key components used in high-end equipment.\nPremier Lai thanked industry for its dedicated efforts as part of public-private cooperation\u2014with the assistance from the MOEA and local governments\u2014to push the value of machinery production to over NT$1.1 trillion (US$36.1 billion) in 2017, elevating the business to become one of Taiwan\u2019s three \u201ctrillion dollar\u201d industries. The premier instructed the MOEA to work with local governments to carry out related work and promote these successes throughout the nation.\nThe MOEA indicated that the government\u2019s promotion of smart machinery is focused on building a comprehensive ecosystem for related development and guiding targeted industries into smart manufacturing. Following a strategy of connecting with local communities, the future and the world, these efforts are expected to entrench the smart machinery industry, nurture expertise and talent, and carry forward the transformation and upgrade of the industrial landscape. Success will achieve such goals as expanding international cooperation and creating business opportunities.\nTaiwan\u2019s smart manufacturing industry in 2017 attracted NT$53.89 billion (US$1.77 billion) in major investments, according to the MOEA, and employed an estimated 308,000 people, for a gain of over 6,360 jobs compared to 2016. Furthermore, Taiwan Association of Machinery Industry data show that thanks to the combined efforts of businesses and government, machinery industry production broke through the trillion-dollar ceiling in 2017 by growing 11.1 percent to about NT$1.1 trillion.",

        "raw_content": "So much for my powers of prognostication -- a few years back, I finished with the best record in my bowl pool, but ever since then it's been decidedly average for me. This year I'm barely above .500 so far, but the way the group I'm in allocates points, I'm 60 places behind other people with the same record. So ... go, Tulsa! Yep.\nHere is a nice article from the Sun-Times earlier this week on Brady Quinn and Dublin, Ohio. I liked one observation from Brady's father:\n\"I noticed that over at the Meijer's across town, they are actually carrying more Notre Dame merchandise than normal,\" Quinn said. \"Nowhere near as much Ohio State stuff as they have, but more than normal. That's good.\"\nOne of the first things I noticed, when doing freshman-dorm-room shopping in South Bend a few years back, was that there actually was Notre Dame stuff in the Meijer on Grape Road. Growing up in Columbus, you start to think it's just a feature of all Meijer stores that they only stock OSU merchandise, because that's all you ever see. So to see some ND inroads being made in Columbus stores ... it's a start! Also, and importantly, BGS passes on the news that Brady will definitely be returning to South Bend next year. I never seriously thought he'd leave -- there's too much to return for, not least earning a Notre Dame degree -- but it's nice to have it confirmed. For other Fiesta-related articles, Bill at Bare Down has the best daily round-up.\nEDIT: Did Mark May just claim he'd been \"on the Notre Dame bandwagon from Day One\"?! This, from the guy whom ND message boards have had to ban all mention of because he's so egregious in his anti-ND bias? Ha -- follow-up quip: \"Mark May has just received an honorary degree in revisionist history.\" (Lou wouldn't have let the claim stand in any case.)\nA savior has been born\nMerry Christmas! I hope everyone has a wonderful and blessed day. If you do take time to reflect today on the reason why we Christians celebrate this holy day, I offer the words of Pope Benedict XVI, from the homily of his first Christmas Mass as pope last night:\nBut there is more: in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, God himself became man. To him the Father says: \u201cYou are my son\u201d. God\u2019s everlasting \u201ctoday\u201d has come down into the fleeting today of the world and lifted our momentary today into God\u2019s eternal today. God is so great that he can become small. God is so powerful that he can make himself vulnerable and come to us as a defenceless child, so that we can love him. God is so good that he can give up his divine splendour and come down to a stable, so that we might find him, so that his goodness might touch us, give itself to us and continue to work through us. This is Christmas: \u201cYou are my son, this day I have begotten you\u201d. God has become one of us, so that we can be with him and become like him. As a sign, he chose the Child lying in the manger: this is how God is. This is how we come to know him. And on every child shines something of the splendour of that \u201ctoday\u201d, of that closeness of God which we ought to love and to which we must yield \u2013 it shines on every child, even on those still unborn.\n'Twas the night before (a Notre Dame) Christmas\nFantastic poem going around, written by John Rosemeyer. (I think it might be a guy I knew from my class, though there's another alumnus named John Rosemeyer out there also. Whichever it is, nicely done!) Thought I would post it here for other Notre Dame fans to enjoy. Instant classic (I also especially like the reference to everyone's favorite Indiana State Trooper).\nGO IRISH!!!!\n'Twas the night before Christmas, When all through South Bend\nNot a creature was stirring, neither rooster nor hen\nThe banners were hung on the stadium with care,\nIn hopes that St. Charlie soon would be there\nThe alumni were nestled all snug in their beds,\nWith dreams of Leahy and Holtz in their heads;\nWhile the students at the Grotto, down by the lake,\nWere just giving thanks for a long winter break,\nWhen out on those quads arose such a clatter,\nI sprang from my bed to see what was the matter,\nThe Dome with a crest of new-fallen snow\nGave luster of mid-day to a campus below\nA high-powered offense: the champions next year!\nWith a large and proud leader, so friendly and nice\nI knew in a moment it must be Coach Weis\nAs fast as Four Horsemen, onward they came\nHe whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:\n\u201cNow Hoyte, Now Samardzija, Walker, Fasano\nOn Stovall, On Shelton, Wooden, Anastascio!\u201d\nTo the top of the rankings, to the top of them all\n\u201cNow throw a-way, run a-way, and dive for the ball!\nWe will move like the wind, our runners will fly\nAnd just for balance, we\u2019ll take to the sky!\u201d\nSo up to the top of the rankings they flew\nWith a big book of plays, and Brady Quinn too\nAnd then in a twinkling, to the sound of the cleats\nThe scoring and wins, I forgot past defeats\nDown the chimney, Coach Weis came with a bound\nHe was dressed with his rings, and headset to boot\nAnd his clothes were all drenched with Gatorade and soot\nA number of victories he carried on his back\nAnd he smiled as he turned and presented a sack --\nof trophies -\u2013 how they twinkled! Like heaps of gold treasures\nHis cheeks were like roses, his wisdom past measure\nWeis commanded the team on fourth downs to throw\nThrough hail and through fog, through sleet and through snow\nHis genius caused points in the forties and fifties,\nTo hearten alumni and keep our stats spiffy\nWeis had a broad face and a little round belly,\nThat shook, when he laughed, like BCS bowl-ful of jelly,\nHe was chubby and plump, and so sure of himself,\nThat I cheered when I saw him, in spite of myself;\nSoon gave me to know, that Ohio State would be dead\nHe boasted not a word, praise makes not his day\nBut all now know, for the title we\u2019ll play\nAnd laying a finger to the side of his nose,\nAnd giving a nod, up the rankings we rose\nAt his departure I heard Trooper McCarthy say;\n\u201cIf your sleigh flight looks fishy, you\u2019ll be the catch of the day!\u201d\nWeis sprang to the roof, to his team gave cheer\nAnd away to a victory in the Fiesta next year;\nAnd I heard him call plays for winning the game\n\u201cMerry Christmas to all. And love thee Notre Dame!!!\u201d\nI'm heading down to Florida this afternoon, to visit my parents and see the rest of my family for Christmas. I'm sure I'll post during the week, especially as the main bowl events get closer (I'm only 2-2 in my picks right now . . . doh). In the meantime, I should say to all those who keep ending up at my site as a result of Google searches to this effect: I have absolutely no reason to believe Pope Benedict is an Ohio State fan. It must be an urban legend. If the Holy Father is aware enough of any American college football teams to be a fan, then despite the fact that we probably had more Polish immigrant kids than German ones playing for us over the years, I'm sure he'd be a Notre Dame fan. And with that, happy holidays to my readers!\nEDIT: I'm now in Florida, and surrounded by an extra three ND alumni in my family. They have informed me that there's a picture -- very clearly Photoshopped -- being widely circulated, that shows Pope Benedict with an Ohio State background. Heresy! I won't link to it. As I said, if the pope loves any American football team, it has to be the Irish. But of course. :)\nLabels: Go Irish (ND sports), Personal\nThe panda in winter\nThey let the panda cub go outside yesterday morning for the first time, where he spent awhile climbing tree limbs. Otherwise, he's been rolling around in a rubber feed tray doing headflips in and out of it. This morning, he got a soccer ball to play with as well, so he batted that around. Some kind of life, n'est-ce pas? I'll just get back to my document review here at home this morning . . . :)\n(Photo by the Smithsonian.)\nDon't believe DeBeers\nI've gone on a rant about inescapable jewelry ads before. With their annoyingly chirpy jingles, they always promise some variation on, \"Buy her something shiny and expensive, and she'll love you forever!\" Whatever. If a woman really wouldn't love a man unless the shiny rocks were big enough, there probably wasn't much there to begin with. (Jonah Goldberg put it less charitably in his annual shot at Kay Jewellers the other day.) Gifts can definitely be a nice way to say \"I love you,\" but it's not as though there's more love if there's more money involved -- and plenty of sweet, thoughtful gifts don't require trips to Jared's. I know many women really love jewelry -- and if there's a lot of thoughtfulness involved, I suppose I can understand that -- but at least some women don't. And those of us who don't are still a little peeved at DeBeers, who invented the \"Diamonds are Forever\" slogan in the first place. It's all a big marketing ploy.\nVia Family Scholars, another trend story from the NYT about women \"who once rigorously avoided a fancy engagement ring,\" but who, now that they're on their second marriages, \"are revising their notions about this classic symbol of commitment and love\" -- that is, they're wanting \"bigger stones.\" Let's hope there's an equally increased focus on the marriage, not just the ring, for these new couples the second time around. Oh, well.\nA jolly sight\nVia Amy Welborn, I saw these pictures of Pope Benedict wearing what appears to be a Santa Claus hat. Heh. Apparently it's a traditional hat, and even has a formal name (a \"camauro\"), but I hadn't seen it before. Merry Christmas to His Holiness!\nHeavenly fans\nA few people have landed at my site recently by searching for Ohio State vs. Notre Dame jokes. I'm not sure why Google led them here (and I'm not sure really how many of those jokes exist), but in the event, I'll post one that was recently forwarded to me:\nAfter OSU Coach Jim Tressel passes away and enters the pearly gates, God takes him on a tour. He shows Tressel a little two-bedroom house with a faded OSU banner hanging from the front porch. \"This is your home, Coach. Most people don't get their own house up here,\" God exclaims.\nCoach Tressel looks at the house, then turns around and looks at the one sitting on the top of the hill behind him. It's a huge two-story mansion with white marble columns and little patios under all of the windows. Notre Dame flags line both sides of the sidewalk with a huge blue and gold University of Notre Dame banner hanging between the marble columns.\n\"Thanks for the home, God, but let me ask you a question,\" says Coach Tressel. \"I get this little two bedroom house with a faded OSU banner and Charlie Weis gets a mansion with new Notre Dame banners and ND flags flying all over the place. Why is that?\"\nGod looks at him seriously for a moment and then replies, \"That's not Charlie's house, that's Mine!\"\nThis also makes me think of Lou Holtz's response to the question of why ND fans should think that Jesus cares about our team any more than any other. Holtz's quick reply is always, \"We don't . . . but we think his mother might!\" :)\nOn Sunday, the Post Magazine had an extensive cover story about a same-sex couple who, \"after years of hiding their love,\" were comfortably 'out' in their town, \"until Virginia's lawmakers chased them across the Potomac.\" So what did those discriminatory lawmakers actually do? A little less than chasing people out of the state, to be sure; but they did pass a Defense of Marriage Act that made this couple sufficiently upset and concerned as to move north to Frederick, MD. The story is almost entirely sympathetic to the couple and their sad departure from their adopted hometown to a new one, but ends with an optimistic scene from a Unitarian Universalist church and the couple heading \"out into the autumn sunshine.\"\nWell, all right. The story, though a soft-focus character study, may be newsworthy in that migration to perceived more-liberal states could be a real phenomenon among gay couples. Yet consider this sharp comment from the next day's online chat with the author, which comment does a lot to illuminate a bit of the bias here:\nI look forward to your follow-up article in which you spend 8-10 pages describing Heterosexual couples who decided to either stay in VA or move there because they were comfortable with the defense of marriage amendment. Please be sure to include less than a page from people opposed to the amendment, so as to be as evenhanded and fair as you were in yesterday's article.\nIs it even imaginable that a publication like the Post's would do such an extensive cover story, casting a family like this in a favorable light with little perspective given from the other side? I find it difficult to believe so, based on years of reading one type of story and almost none of the other. Were one to be written, it would almost certainly be done with the \"Conservatives in the Mist\" approach that the MSM seems so often to take.\nTo a larger point, as I suggested above, it might be newsworthy to report on this type of movement if such movement was reported in both directions. Stories about the red state/blue state divide are plentiful enough, but it is interesting to wonder, what does it portend for us if we continue to split between the coasts and the \"fly-over\" country? Unless it was absolutely necessary, I'm sure I would never raise my family in San Francisco (despite my still-persistent partiality to the 49ers) or Massachusetts. I'm all for \"engaging the culture,\" but when it comes to where my children would be in public schools, I wouldn't care to have them in a state where middle-school teachers happily talk about sex toys. Conversely, I've no doubt the gay couple with \"their\" two-year-old daughter by a surrogate mother would be less than thrilled to live in Mobile. That's not surprising; it's the divide we're currently living in many places, though the discussion is far from settled in many other states. In any event, if I do catch the Post writing an equally sympathetic story from the opposite perspective, I'll be sure to post it.\nA thank you to our troops\nThis week is Thank a Soldier Week, organized by Townhall.com and given public support by celebrities like Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss at the recent Country Music Awards. More than 37,000 people so far have taken this opportunity to send a message of support and thanks to our troops, particularly those currently serving in Afghanistan and Iraq. I'd like to join them and express my gratitude toward all those who are sacrificing so much for our country, making it safer by promoting democracy and fighting terrorism around the world.\nAlso, do go see the sweet picture posted at The Anchoress, who has several good links up. And visit Operation Iraqi Children to see a great example of a charitable organization that is helping soldiers connect with kids.\nNow here's a headline: \"Groups concerned by grants promoting pregnancy over abortion.\" Horrors! Childbirth over abortion? Well, actually, it sounds like a great idea. The AP reports that the Texas legislature has voted to award $5 million in grants to crisis pregnancy centers, which offer support to women facing difficult pregnancies and encourage them to choose life for their children. It would seem to be difficult to object to a policy favoring life over death -- even the Supreme Court's messed-up jurisprudence on the matter of abortion allows for this -- but NARAL and Planned Parenthood are unhappy anyway. They seem to be concerned that by helping CPCs, the state is implying that abortion might not be an equally morally good choice for pregnant women. That is, of course, what the state is implying; it also happens to be true. Here's one specific complaint, though:\nAbortion rights groups such as Planned Parenthood complain the program will divert money from health clinics that often serve poor women to groups whose primary goal to persuade women from having abortions.\nIt's an interesting dichotomy, but not that valid. CPCs serve many poor women as well -- since poor women have disproportionate numbers of abortions, as I have written about in the past, they are a particularly vulnerable population. But while Planned Parenthood may say they also want to serve the poor, they actually have a vested interest in continuing to exploit the poor. PP is now responsible for almost 1 in 5 abortions in America -- more than a quarter million in 2004. That number of abortions is about 140 times more than the number of people they referred to adoption agencies. And it means more money for the quite profitable group. In 2003-2004, it's a reasonable estimate that Planned Parenthood took in $100 million, a third of its clinic income, just from abortions. While state money might not be able to be used directly for these, PP does benefit from government money. If PP is really upset that crisis pregnancy centers, which offer real hope and support to women, should be receiving any money, it says more about their true concerns (profiting from abortion) than they think.\nFiesta-sphere\nI pulled a few links up from my \"Notre Dame\" section and added some others to a Fiesta Bowl section on the left. (The rest of my Notre Dame links are still in that section, though.) Should provide good insight (or better, entertainment) until the actual game. To start, this post by Teds at BGS gives an exhaustive breakdown of the Buckeyes this year and some keys to the game for the Irish.\nWhose cause is it anyway\nNice one from The Onion this week taking on my favorite Irish rock band:\nRest Of U2 Perfectly Fine With Africans Starving\nSAN FRANCISCO\u2014Rock band U2, currently on tour in North America, is well-known for its human-rights advocacy, particularly its ongoing campaign to eradicate poverty in Africa. Less known to fans of the Irish supergroup, however, is that the lion's share of these efforts are made by lead singer Bono. The three other U2 members are perfectly okay with the dismal plight of Africa's poor.\nMore motivation, Weis-style\nFrom the man who promised to bring a \"nasty\" style of football to Notre Dame, Charlie Weis is now also talking about \"humiliation\" -- but not of opponents, of his own guys:\nOhio State, in itself, should command Notre Dame's undivided attention, but Weis always keeps psychological ammunition in his hip pocket.\nSeven straight bowl losses? Perfect for challenging their pride in a program they have worked to rebuild.\n\"I think it gives you a great opportunity to humiliate them,\" Weis said, his feigned fidgeting transformed now into a fiendish grin, \"and I think I'm really looking forward to that.\"\nFor all his celebrated X-ing and O-ing, Weis relishes that more visceral element of preparation.\nI do think it's better to have the humiliation before the game, used as an incentive to keep ND's focus on preparing for the Bucks, than afterwards. Right? So while our bowl game losing streak is \"otherwise irrelevant to the Fiesta Bowl,\" if it helps with inspiration, I'm all for it.\nA Fresh Aire Document Review\nIn addition to some other projects, I've been working on a document review for the last few months. The review shifted into higher gear this past week, though, so that's been taking up my time (including a few dozen hours this weekend) almost exclusively. At least I can do most of it from my computer, so in the evenings I've been working from my couch next to the Christmas tree, with the Charlie Brown Christmas and Mannheim Steamroller CDs playing in the background. This is the first year I've had my own Christmas tree and it was a lot of fun decorating, so I'm determined to enjoy it as much as I can while coding. Merry Christmas :) (And yes, if you look closely at the picture, that is Darth Tater next to the tree.)\nLet's send it down to Jack Aroo\nThis was just forwarded to me -- I wasn't sure where it was from, so I googled it and it looks like it's from a Fanblogs post earlier this season. Now that another Ohio State game is coming up for him to broadcast, and given my loathing of his announcing style, I have to link to the Brent Musburger drinking game, complete with a warning to \"Play at your own risk. It is conceivable your whole party will be passed out with 8 mins remaining in the 1st quarter.\" Heheh. A sampling:\nRule #3: \"It's a foot race!\". Whenever Brent says \"It's a foot race\" everyone has to finish their drink. The first one done becomes \"That Man\" and gets to punch the Pardner in the arm.\nRule #6: \"Jack Arute\". Whenever Brent says \"Our ol' buddy Jack Arute\" everyone has to say \"AROOOOOOT!\" Last one to do it has to do a shot. If everyone does it simultaneously, the Pardner must do a shot.\nRule #11: \"The Major\". If Brent has a pet nickname for one of the players during the game, for example calling Major Applewhite \"The Major\", everyone must drink 5 anytime Brent uses this nickname. However, \"Gary, my man\" does not drink but gets to give away 5 drinks since this person already has a nickname of their own.\nRule #12: \"John Saunders\". The first time Brent quips with John Saunders, everyone must drink 1. The next time, everyone must drink 2, and so on and so on.\nEvery time he fawns over an Ohio State player (as one commenter pointed out, Andy Katzenmoyer remains a favorite) or says \"folks,\" but particularly, every time he goes to Jack Arute (I swear it sounds like \"Aroo\") I roll my eyes and hit the mute button. It would be nice if the Westwood One or other radio broadcast were in sync with my TV for the games Musburger is on, but the few times I've tried to watch games that way it never matches up. *Grumble.*\nBowl motivations\nHere is the AP article on Notre Dame's return to the BCS. It quotes Brady Quinn (like me, from Dublin, Ohio) confirming the experience of growing up Irish in Columbus:\n\"Being a Notre Dame fan in Columbus was kind of hard, especially two years back-to-back like that,\" he said.\nYep. The article also notes the rather embarrassing fact that \"the Irish have lost seven straight bowl games: the Fiesta Bowl to end the 1994 and 2000 seasons, the Orange Bowl to end the 1995 season, the Independence Bowl to end the 1997 season, the Gator Bowl to end the 1998 and 2002 seasons, and the Insight Bowl in Phoenix last year\" -- an ignoble streak, to be sure. Quinn again: \"That's something that obviously needs to end.\" That would be nice.\nIrish in Ohio, or: A personal history of the series\nMy dad grew up listening to Notre Dame football games on the radio from his home in Miami (that's Florida, to my Ohio friends), before he went there and promptly became the biggest Notre Dame fan anyone who knows him has ever met. With that parentage, our family could never be anything but Irish. When we moved from Atlanta to Columbus when I was ten, however, it became clear there was a bigger game in town. We were surrounded by tens of thousands of Ohio State graduates, students, and fans, and almost every single one of them had an inherent dislike of Domers. Here's the story of the last time our teams met, as my family experienced it and as I wrote about it for the ND student magazine my freshman year:\nThings came to a head in 1995, when the Irish came to Columbus for the first time in about 60 years. Now, the city paper, the Dispatch, rarely deigns to write about Notre Dame, but the week of this game stories were all over the paper. Notre Dame had won the two games in the '30s, creating, according to the paper, \"ghosts that had annoyed and haunted generations of Buckeye fans.\" The humiliation of being on the short side of a 2-0 series record still smarted, and the team was aching for revenge.\nThey got it. My parents were downtown at the game along with a smattering of other loyal Irish fans, but they were lost in that sea of 100,000 red shirts. I was watching the game at home, and as the game progressed and ND fumbled it away in the third quarter, I kept hearing strange noises outside my house: hammering. Lots of it. My neighbor (we'll call him Joe) walked through the house a few times, looking around speculatively. \"Joe?\" I said a bit nervously. \"What are you doing, Joe?\" \"Where's the garage door opener?\" he replied. Followed by: \"Do you guys have any extra nails?\"\nI ventured outside when the construction noises stopped. Our Notre Dame flag had been taken down, replaced by an OSU one. Blinking red Christmas tree lights hung on the bushes. The score had been chalked onto our driveway. Black sheets hung from the garage doors reading, \"Quiet please. In mourning.\" Candles in Ohio State paper bags lined the driveway. And as my parents drove up the street, there were lots of neighbors from up and down the street standing and watching with their arms crossed, nodding approvingly at the redecorating efforts.\nThe next year the game was played in South Bend. Unfortunately, it was another loss for ND, and the neighbors outdid themselves this time. When we returned home from out of town the next day, we found that in addition to the lights, flag, and score (this time colorfully spray-painted on the lawn), there were also now cardboard tombstones. \"R.I.P. ND '96,\" they announced, and \"Here lie the Irish, dead and gone.\" Black crepe paper was draped on the mailbox and front door. The TV van pulled up a few minutes later.\nOn the local news that night, after the requisite story about OSU students overturning cars and burning couches in celebration, the anchors turned to the story of the ND alum, my father, who had returned from out of town that day. \"He's a huge Notre Dame fan,\" the voice-over reported as the camera pulled back from the sticker on his car to reveal the mock graveyard. The scene shifted to Joe the neighbor. \"He's just so arrogant about it,\" he said of my father in a long-suffering tone. \"It's always 'Notre Dame this' and 'Notre Dame that.'\"\n\"So he asked for this?\" confirmed the reporter with a grin.\n\"Every day he asks for this,\" nodded Joe.\nMy father started laughing, knowing secretly that the arrogance was justified, seeing as he'd gone to, unquestionably, the best school in the country. He got in the last word, too, when the eternal reporter question, \"How do you feel about this?\" was put to him. \"Oh, there's no hard feelings. I just find it sad, you know, that this football game means so much to Ohio State fans,\" he said regretfully, forgetting, of course, that had Notre Dame won, all of us Irish fans would have lorded it over the city for weeks, maybe even years. \"I mean, people, come on. Get a life.\"\nI don't mean to suggest there aren't nice students at or graduates of Ohio State out of the hundreds of thousands in the city; I personally know three or four of them. (Joke! I am one now, of course.) It was just that the only way we could have been more anathema as football fans in Ohio would have been to be from Michigan. Fortunately, fans of ND and OSU will always have at least that one thing in common: opposition to the Blue.\nAddendum: When I decided to return to Columbus after college to attend OSU for law school, my parents never heard the end of it. It turned out it was a pretty nice place to go to school, though, and I had a great experience at the Moritz College of Law at The Ohio State University. It would have been convenient if I had been a fan of the football team, also, since they did win the National Championship my 1L year (a fact which you can never, ever escape in Columbus, particularly if you fly through the airport where the game is on a constant loop in the fan shop). However, I came to the school with my football allegiances too well set to become a Buckeye fan. In 1999, I wrote that if we ever faced OSU again or were in a BCS game, I thought I would go into hiding. Well, here we are, and I've rethought my position, although it might be made easier by the fact that after 15 years I'm no longer resident in Buckeye Central. Be that as it may, no hiding here. I think the Irish can handle the Bucks this year, and I look forward to seeing the Irish prove it on the field next month. I say, bring it on.\n\u00a1Fiesta dos mil seis!\nWell, it's official: Notre Dame vs. Ohio State in the 2006 Fiesta Bowl on January 2. The teams have met four times in the past, twice in the 1930s and twice in the 1990s, with the series split 2-2. You might not think that makes for a serious rivalry, but if you think that, you've never lived in Columbus.* I'll be following the run-up to the game over the next month, but first, go back a few weeks and read about Stewart Mandel's encounter with obsessive fans of The Ohio State University here, including his opinion at the time of both teams:\nAll right, I can't take it any more -- what's wrong with you Ohio State people? Honestly? Do you have nothing better to do with your time than play the \"my two-loss team is better than your two-loss team\" game? This is like arguing over the Best Supporting Actor Oscar.\nWe're basically splitting hairs here, but if you want my honest opinion: Ohio State is the more talented team, but in the Buckeyes' two biggest games of the season, I watched as their offense -- at the direction of their coaches -- curled into the fetal position. In Notre Dame's biggest game of the season, Charlie Weis showed no fear whatsoever against the No. 1 team in the country. When the Irish fell behind 28-24 with 5:09 left, Quinn promptly drove them 87 yards and dove for the go-ahead touchdown. When Ohio State fell behind Texas 23-22 with 2:37 remaining, Buckeyes QB Justin Zwick promptly fumbled. Down seven to Penn State in the final minutes, Troy Smith fumbled.\nMandel did add that \"since that Penn State game, Smith and the OSU offense have been among the most explosive in the country,\" and after the Michigan game and other subsequent events, the Bucks did finish fourth in the national rankings. However, changing his opinion of the teams' rankings didn't stop Mandel from calling Buckeye fans \"the craziest fans in the land.\" This is true. This will be demonstrated amply over the next month, I'm sure. But the ultimate outcome is going to be that despite Jim Tressel's recent successes in Tempe, the Irish are going to walk out January 2 with the win. Go Irish.\n*Stories to follow.\nAccording to CBS Gametracker, Texas is up 42-3 at the half, and this game is shaping up to be even more of a rout than October's. Unless Colorado somehow acquires an offense in the next twenty minutes. Or, you know, a defense. Right. That leaves USC to do its thing against the Bruins so we can have the definitive Young-Bush matchup in January, along with that ever-more-likely-seeming Notre Dame-Ohio State game. As far as I know, I'm the only blogger from both places. Is anyone else out there?\nIn the meantime, very cool speech from Lou Holtz at last night's football banquet (complete with jokes, praise for Our Lady's University, and a nice little dig at Mark May), posted at BGS; and a post from Fanblogs looking at the merits of Oregon and Ohio State from Fiesta's perspective. Comments contain ample amounts of Irish love and hate.\nEDIT: Looks like there's another \"Irish Buckeye\" out there, a 2L at ND Law School, Alex of Arguend-Ho. Check out his blog -- I'm sorry I missed it before :)\nBCS chaos theory\nStewart Mandel plays a game of what-if in his column this week, that is: what if Texas loses to Colorado? What if USC loses to UCLA? What if they both lose?\nNot gonna happen, says Mandel. But aren't the scenarios fun to work out? The permutations would result in Notre Dame playing either Va. Tech or West Virginia. If the butterfly doesn't flap its wings, though, everyone seems to agree we'll be playing Ohio State. I'm sure others will do much better breakdowns of the matchups than I could, so I'll just share my instinctive feeling that I would much rather play Ohio State than Virginia Tech. Sure, Charlie can study Miami's game plan against the Hokies and might be able to replicate it, but they still strike me as more dangerous than even the peaking Troy Smith or (Brent Musberger's favorite) Santonio Holmes. Hmm.\nChesterton confusion\nRandom thought: Whenever Mark Shea posts a quote (here, for example) from G.K. \"Prophet\" Chesterton (as Mark calls him), I always find myself impressed with Chesterton's writing and prescience. However, I'm currently struggling through Orthodoxy, and finding it a mostly painful experience. Chesterton has an odd way of drawing analogies and his examples usually don't work for me. He's not nearly as clear an apologist, or as straightforward a read, as C.S. Lewis. Is it just me?\nThree abortions before lunch\n. . . and three after, for three decades, and pretty soon you've personally destroyed the lives of more than 20,000 unborn children. A tidy operation, and a nice way to make a living. In this LA Times article (I waited until it was printed not behind a firewall), Stephanie Simon writes about Arkansas abortionist William Harrison, who in the course of his career has killed more than three times as many babies as he's delivered. Lest there be a quibble with my phrasing, Harrison himself says he's an \"abortionist,\" and admits freely that he's \"destroying life.\" Both of these things are true. Then, in a perverse inversion of the evangelical Christian meaning of \"born again,\" Harrison believes his patients are born again after their unborn children are gone: \"When you end what the woman considers a disastrous pregnancy, she has literally been given her life back,\" he says. But this is false. Harrison never claims any women he's performed abortions on had life-threatening conditions, so their actual lives would have continued if their children had been born. Even if Harrison means \"life\" in the sense of \"lifestyle,\" as he more presumably does, it may be true in the short term, but for millions of women the severe spiritual and emotional (and even physical) damage that comes with the knowledge, whether it hits immediately or decades later, of having chosen to end the lives of their own children will take years to heal. The women (and some men) of After Abortion or Silent No More testify to this every day as they try to help others with healing. (Project Rachel also ministers to women.)\nHarrison's morality is monstrous enough (and a nice example of the kinds of people Roe v. Wade requires states to allow to \"practice\"), but the snapshots of the women coming into his Arkansas clinic are also depressing. So many women in this country have chosen, some freely but many not, this unnatural path. Estimates are that a quarter of all women will have an abortion at some point in their lives, ending one out of every four pregnancies in this country: that's around 40,000,000 abortions and counting at this point, an entire generation. Who are these women? We've seen a lot of testimony in the media in particular over the past year, including the woman who didn't want to have to shop at Costco and the woman who wanted a genetically perfect infant. In this story, we also get \"Sarah, who works in real estate, [and] was in the midst of planning her wedding. 'I don't think my dress would have fit with a baby in there,' she says.\"\nMore, though, we've seen the fear and regret, the emotional confusion, the having to actively work to overcome the hesitations of conscience, and the desperate attempts to believe that this isn't their own baby, that this is just the best way for everyone (not just themselves). In this story:\nThe 17-year-old in for a consultation this morning assures the nurse that she does not consider the embryo inside her a baby. \"Not until it's developed,\" she says. \"That would be about three months?\"\n\"It's completely formed about nine weeks,\" the nurse tells her. \"Yours is more like a chicken yolk.\"\nThe girl, who is five weeks pregnant, looks relieved. \"Then no,\" she says, \"it's not a baby.\" Her mother sits in the corner wiping her tears. . . .\n[An 18-year-old with \"tears rolling down her cheeks\"] is not yet sure, she says, how she is doing emotionally. She feels guilty, sad and relieved, all in a jumble.\n\"There's things wrong with abortion,\" she says. \"But I want to have a good life. And provide a good life for my child.\" To keep this baby now, she says, when she's single, broke and about to start college, \"would be unfair.\"\nThese stories are terrible. The 17-year-old and her weeping mother were simply lied to, as the nurse equated the girl's baby to a chicken yolk: her five-week-old unborn child already had a heartbeat. If she waited another week to schedule the actual abortion, her baby would have formed more of his internal organs, a little nose, and had his arms and legs grow a bit more and his eyebuds appear. I wouldn't count on that information to matter a whit to Dr. Harrison and his thriving business, but women should know, so that they will be able to take responsibility and give their children the gift of life, instead of taking life away.\nIrish in Ohio, or: A personal history of the serie...",

        "raw_content": "Learning from the Duwamish River communities: How living by a toxic river can be hazardous to your health.\nSeattle is a city built on water \u2013 its identity, its celebrated beauty, and much of its economic lifeblood comes from its relationship to Puget Sound and the rivers that flow into it.\nBut the Duwamish River, which runs through the center of Seattle's urban industrial core, is not the one you see on post cards. Now named one of the largest Superfund sites in the country, it is also the river in the backyard of more than 38,000 of Seattle's poorest and most diverse residents.\nThe goal of my 2010 National Health Fellowship project was to identify the community health issues that face the people living in two neighborhoods \u2013 Georgetown and South Park -- which face each other across the toxic river in the middle of the Superfund site.\nThe thinking was that by identifying these problems, we could call out the issue of accountability, and more importantly point the way toward creative solutions for a portion of the population the greater Seattle community has historically ignored. The backdrop for the story was a looming multi-million dollar Superfund decision about how best to clean up the river, and to what extent.\nThe precipitating event for the story, though, was the closure of the bridge that links the two communities, effectively cutting off easy access to downtown Seattle a few miles away. To me it seemed the perfect metaphor for the attitude of the larger population toward those struggling to carve a life on the banks of the river that built the prosperous city down the road.\nWhile much has been written about the health of the fish and other creatures that live in the river, little is known about the actual health of the people who live and work nearby. There are a couple of reasons for this. The communities have large immigrant and refugee populations \u2013 groups who do not share a common language, and have not had a voice in putting health concerns on civic agendas. And for many in these communities, worries about health weren't as pressing as, say, keeping a roof over their heads, or their children safe from violence.\nBut the other big reason is that, until recently, there hasn't been data to back up claims that living in the area could make you sick.\nThe first reporting step was to get that data. Washington is participating in The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's . While this trove of data contains info on health effects, hazard levels and biological exposures, it wasn't broken down beyond county levels. Fortunately, however, some counties have started breaking this data down further, a trend driven by the recognition that planning decisions that affect the physical and social structure of communities also affect people's health. King County, which is where Georgetown and South Park are located, has led the effort, posting broken down into more than 34 neighborhoods and cities called \"health planning areas.\"\nI was able to get data for an area that included the communities along the Duwamish, which revealed that the average life expectancy there was considerably lower than that in other more affluent areas only a few miles away. That statistic became the hook for a that delved into why, and what could be done about it.\nOne of the unexpected challenges in reporting this story was getting people to speak candidly about problems with the place where they lived. A number of community members shared their concerns about their health and the environment they were living in, but didn't want to malign their neighborhoods, or publicly disclose their own health issues. There is a strong sense of pride in the area. People consider themselves tough, and survivors, and they don't want to see their area get any more \"bad press,\" which they feared would only continue to hamper economic development. They love their river and its eerie beauty. At the same time, they worried for their kids, and there was a strong drive to improve the community for the future. Some of those who wouldn't go on the record were helpful in identifying others they felt would be less reluctant to share.\nThe other significant challenge in reporting this story was dealing with the issue of cause and effect. The neighborhoods faced an array of assaults on their health, coming from both social and environmental stressors. But no one has yet done any cumulative impact studies on how these stressors might be interacting to raise health risks for residents. This made it impossible to establish direct cause and effect. We could, however, lay out what the stressors were, and then look at which of the health indicators were elevated in the local area. We checked to make sure we were using age-adjusted data and that the confidence intervals supported our conclusions when we said an indicator was elevated.\nLooking at qualitative stressors and quantitative indicator data side by side revealed interesting trends. It was clear from spending time in the neighborhood, for example, that getting groceries was a challenge \u2013 the only grocery store was outside of town, across a busy highway, with no easy bus access. Sure enough, weight, heart disease and diabetes were all elevated indicators. Similarly, residents complained about the noise and dirt from constant diesel traffic running by and through the neighborhoods, which are adjacent to the Port of Seattle and its container-loading operations. Parsing the data confirmed that asthma hospitalizations are higher than for any other part of the county.\nAnalyzing the data in this way allowed us build a tangible picture of ways the local environment was affecting people's health. This was important information for residents to have, given the ongoing opportunities for public comment to affect the pending Superfund decision. This information was also important because King County had recently become the first local government in the country to pass an environmental justice ordinance requiring the county (which is also one of the parties responsible for the Superfund cleanup) to take into account disproportionate health impacts on low-income and minority populations.\nWhile the health indicator data on King County's public health website has been up for the last two years or so, it has yet to be mined much for stories. My foray through the subset of data on the Duwamish area shows what a wealth of stories the database contains. As a result of the Duwamish project, we are now looking at building community health profiles of a number of other local municipalities.\n\u0434\u0443\u0431\u043b\u0435\u043d\u043a\u0438 \u0438\u043d\u0442\u0435\u0440\u043d\u0435\u0442 \u043c\u0430\u0433\u0430\u0437\u0438\u043d",

        "raw_content": "Tandy departs struggling Ospreys\nThe Ospreys have fired head coach Steve Tandy following their exit from the European Champions Cup.\nA 24-7 defeat to Clermont Auvergne on Saturday ended the Welsh region's hopes of progressing from an extremely tough group that also included reigning European champions Saracens.\nYet while the Ospreys were competitive in Europe, their Pro14 form has been hugely disappointing. They have won just four of their 13 league fixtures this season and sit sixth out of seven teams in Conference A.\nManaging director Andrew Millward paid tribute to former Ospreys flanker Tandy, who took the reins in February 2012 and won the Pro12 in his first season, but insisted a change was needed.\nIn a club statement, Millward said: \"Steve has been an outstanding servant to Ospreys Rugby \u2013 often in challenging circumstances. His dedication to the region and his hard work has been absolute.\n\"However, we're aware that results have not been good enough this season and that, regrettably, a change is necessary to keep the organisation moving forward \u2013 consistent with the long-term expectations of our loyal and valued supporters and commercial partners. In line with this, we will also continue to closely review our entire rugby operation during the coming weeks.\n\"This is not a decision that has been taken lightly. Steve has been an integral part of everything we have achieved over the last six years - from winning the Pro12 in his first season in charge to helping develop a strong core of players from our academy \u2013 and before that as a player.\n\"Steve will always remain a respected figure within the Ospreys family and will always be welcomed back to Liberty Stadium as a true friend of the region. We wish him every success for the future.\n\"While our long-term focus is now on finding a world-class replacement and continue building a squad for next season, we have a busy end-of-season Pro14 run-in for the coaches and players to focus on.\"\nThe Ospreys are not in league action again until February 9, with Anglo-Welsh Cup fixtures against Gloucester and Bath their next two assignments.",

It\u2019s pivotal to a plot thread, and required a great deal of unique dialog and a metric ton of description.\nBoth were challenging by themselves; together, they were a nightmare.\nI wrote no less than 1500 words; 3x my daily quota. If you saw the progress meter jump 3% today, now you know why.\nNevertheless, I was satisfied with the result.\nIf you read \u201cThe Novelist\u2019s Burden\u201d below, you know why I was aching to share this material, in spite of the fact it\u2019s still probably unpolished (I can never tell until a few days later). So it was that when my wife arrived home from class and lab, I gave her an appropriate number of hugs before begging her to read a total of 68 pages, half of them containing new content.\nShe loved it. Which is frustrating to me. You see, my wife loves everything I write, whether it\u2019s legendary or total crap. It\u2019s very sweet, but it makes it impossible for me to judge the quality of what I\u2019ve written.\nBut let\u2019s suppose for a moment she was more critical and never said my work was good unless it really impressed her. And last night she thought my new material was very, very good.\nThat\u2019s still not good enough.\nWhat I\u2019m going for, folks, is that when you set down the manuscript, you say \u201cwow\u201d, just the slightest bit breathless. You might not say it aloud, but if you\u2019re at least thinking it, I\u2019ll have won.\nAnything less is just me playing in the sandbox for my own amusement.\nPosted in: Uncategorized | Tagged: crap, dialog, few days, manuscript, metric ton, nightmare, novelist, progress meter, quota, sandbox, spite",

        "title": "About | Julian Jacobson",
        "raw_content": "One of Britain\u2019s most creative and distinctive pianists, Julian Jacobson is acclaimed for the vitality, colour and insight he brings to his enormous repertoire ranging across all styles and periods..\nJulian Jacobson was born in Peebles, Scotland. His father Maurice Jacobson had had some piano lessons with Busoni while his mother, pianist and composer Margaret Lyell, had studied in Berlin with Else Krause, daughter of Liszt\u2019s pupil Martin Krause. Julian studied in London from the age of seven with Lamar Crowson (piano) and Arthur Benjamin (composition), and had published four songs by the age of nine. From 1959 to 1968 he studied at the Royal College of Music where his principal teachers were John Barstow and Humphrey Searle. On graduating with the Sarah Mundlak Piano Prize in 1968 he took up a scholarship to read Music at Queen\u2019s College, Oxford. At this time he was also a founder member of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra.\nAfter further studies with Louis Kentner he made his London debut at the Purcell Room in 1974. This was followed immediately by the first of five appearances in the Park Lane Group\u2019s annual Young Artists series and his Wigmore Hall debut as both solo recitalist and chamber musician. During the 1980s he established himself as a fine duo and ensemble pianist, partnering artists such as Zara Nelsova, Sandor Vegh, David Geringas, Christian Lindberg and Manuela Wiesler as well as many leading UK instrumentalists including Nigel Kennedy, Steven Isserlis, Moray Welsh, Colin Carr, Alexander Baillie and Philippa Davies. His appointment in 1992 as Head of Keyboard Studies at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama led to an increasing concentration on solo work.\nIn 1994 he embarked on his first cycle of the complete 32 Beethoven sonatas; he has now presented the cycle eight times, the last two in a single day (apparently being only the second pianist to attempt this). His 2003 marathon at St James\u2019s Church Piccadilly attracted worldwide media coverage and raised over \u00a36000 for WaterAid.\nJulian Jacobson has performed as soloist with orchestras including the London Symphony, BBC Symphony and City of Birmingham Symphony, the English Chamber Orchestra, London Mozart Players, London Sinfonietta, Bournemouth Sinfonietta, Bucharest Philharmonic, Icelandic Symphony Orchestra and Royal Omani Symphony Orchestra, with conductors such as Sir Simon Rattle, Tamas Vasary and Jane Glover.\nHis many festival appearances as soloist and chamber musician include Edinburgh, Aldeburgh, Bath, Brighton, Cheltenham, Dartington, Glasgow, Huddersfield, Norwich and Prussia Cove on tour. He has appeared in more than forty countries on five continents, with tours of the USA, South America, the Middle and Far East (where he gave what appears to have been the Chinese premiere of Beethoven\u2019s \u201cHammerklavier\u201d Sonata in 1994), South Africa and Australia as well as throughout Western and Eastern Europe.\nAn ongoing commitment to contemporary music has led to many commissions and premieres. In 1987 he gave the critically acclaimed UK premiere of Ligeti\u2019s now famous Etudes Book One; a subsequent recording for BBC Radio 3 was highly praised by the composer. A longlist of composers who have written for him includes Robert Saxton, Simon Bainbridge, Benedict Mason, Philip Cashian, Daryl Runswick, Keith Tippett, Charles Camilleri and Robert Keeley; Michael Nyman wrote the piano trio \u201cTime Will Pronounce\u201d for his ensemble the Trio of London.\nA large and varied discography for labels including Meridian, Chandos, Hyperion, Decca Argo, BIS, Continuum and Metier includes albums of Schumann, Dvorak and Balakirev, the complete sonatas of Weber, the Carnival of the Animals with the London Symphony Orchestra, Martinu\u2019s \u201cSinfonietta Giocosa\u201d with the Bournemouth Sinfonietta under Tamas Vasary, and violin and piano music by Enescu, Dvorak, Vaughan Williams, Fricker and Rawsthorne with Susanne Stanzeleit. His album \u201cClassical Flute \u00e0 la Jazz\u201d with Judith Hall contains his own jazz waltz, \u201cWaltz for Judy\u201d, published by Bardic Edition together with several other waltzes. Other compositions include five film scores, including \u2018To the Lighthouse\u2019, \u2018Hard Travelling\u2019 and \u2018We Think the World of You\u2019. In \u2018The Fourth Protocol\u2019 he made a screen appearance conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra. In February 2007 he conducted the premiere of his \u201cVers la Valse\u201d for flute and orchestra with Ileana Ruhemann and the Syred Sinfonia.\nJulian Jacobson is currently a professor of piano and chamber music at the Royal College of Music. He was Artistic Director of the Paxos International Festival, Greece, from 1988 to 2004, is Artistic Director of \u201cRencontres Musicales \u00e0 Eygali\u00e8res\u201d, and teaches regularly at Cadenza Summer School at the Purcell School, North London. He has given masterclasses in Germany, Paris, Budapest (Franz Liszt Academy), Spain, Sweden, Canada, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, the Middle East, and on many occasions in Dartington. He has recently added the Sprechstimme\nrecitation role of Schoenberg\u2019s \u201cPierrot Lunaire\u201d to his repertoire, giving his fourth performance of it in October 2009 in Jacqueline du Pr\u00e9 Hall, Oxford.",

        "raw_content": "Victoria Beckham Debunks Spice Girls Reunion Tour Rumors: It\u2019s Not Happening\nVictoria Beckham won't be revisiting her days as Posh Spice anytime soon.\nWhile making arrangements to preview her autumn/winter 2018 clothing line at Fashion Week in New York City on Saturday (February 10), the 43-year-old fashion designer felt it urgent to address the latest rumor of a supposed Spice Girls reunion tour, which grew legs after the model shared a couple snaps on Instagram from her reunion with former bandmates Mel B (\"Scary Spice\"), Emma Bunton (\"Baby Spice\"), Mel C (\"Sporty Spice\"), and Geri Horner (\"Ginger Spice\") just a week ago.\nThe image seemed promising enough of a Spice Girls comeback in the works and the possibility of a tour in the U.S. and U.K. sounded a lot more hopeful after they followed up on the hype in a joint statement given to TMZ that teased \u201cnew opportunities\u201d on the horizon:\n\"We have enjoyed a wonderful afternoon catching-up and reminiscing about the amazing times we have spent together. We are always overwhelmed at how much interest there is across the whole world for The Spice Girls.\nThe time now feels right to explore some incredible new opportunities together. We all agree that there are many exciting possibilities that will once again embrace the original essence of The Spice Girls, while reinforcing our message of female empowerment for future generations.\"\nSo what\u2019s it gonna be, girls? Well, Posh has the answer, but it wasn't the one you were wishing for.\n\u201cI\u2019m not going on tour. The girls aren\u2019t going on tour,\u201d Beckham told Vogue plainly while getting organized for her NYFW presentation this morning (February 11). \u201cIt was so great to see the girls. We had such a fun lunch,\u201d she added. \u201cI still speak to them all individually, but for us all to get together was really lovely.\u201d\nDespite our broken hearts, and while a touring gig would have been the group\u2019s first in nearly a decade, it\u2019s still quite possible that the five-piece have something else in store for us in the future. In the form of new music, maybe? (Fingers crossed!)\nSource: Victoria Beckham Debunks Spice Girls Reunion Tour Rumors: It\u2019s Not Happening\nFiled Under: Spice Girls, victoria beckham",

        "raw_content": "Evaluating Twitter as an agricultural economics research tool\nGatson Smart, Candace Elaine\nOver the past decade, social media has risen from an emerging novelty to the normative form of expression for many Americans. As these platforms have risen in popularity, researchers have recognized the potential for capturing information users are self-reporting about their beliefs and preferences. Simultaneously, social media corporations have become privy to the value of this information being freely shared by consumers and have safeguarded much of their historical data to monetize the data. Faced with both an enticing new source of data, but a steep price to obtain it, researchers must evaluate the potential gains that can be extracted from the often difficult to analyze data.\nThis study explored the acquisition of social media, namely Twitter, data and the potential uses in the field of agriculture economics. A contract was secured with Sysomos, a social media analytics firm, in July of 2017 to collect raw Twitter data over the proceeding thirteen months. Changes in frequency of tweets and sentiment scoring of tweets were used to attempt to explain election results from November 2017 proposed legislations pertaining to marijuana and minimum wage as well as to explain and predict changes in the stock prices of selected publicly traded firms in the food producing sector. Twitter frequency changes were then compared to changes in traditional print media articles in an effort to determine the exchangeability of the two media sources when used to track events pertaining to animal health.\nResults of this study suggested that Twitter data possess little power to explain the studied election results, but creation of a strong model was difficult due to the limited number of months of data available. Changes in the frequency of tweets were not found to be a strong indicator of changes in the stock market on the average day, but were shown to explain potentially highly valued information to investors on days with large changes in price. Twitter and traditional print media were shown to be unique sources of data when exploring the topic of animal health events.\nKeywords: Twitter; Stock market; Animal health\nDepartment: Department of Agricultural Economics\nMajor Professor: Glynn T.

Well, for the past several weeks, a lone, white goat had been spotted by various residents in Inver Grove Heights, the southeast Twin Cities suburb that's just about an hour north of Rochester on Highway-52.\nThe goat wasn't reported missing by any area farm, so police were puzzled. He was spotted several times over the last few weeks at various houses in IGH. I took an interest in this goat-on-the-lam story because I, too, had spotted him.\nIt was the Sunday of Labor Day weekend and my wife and I were headed back to Rochester. Sure enough, there the goat was, right along the guardrail of the northbound lanes of Highway-52, just before the Concord Street exit.\nI said to my wife, \"Hey-- is that a goat right there?!?\" because while I've driven that stretch of Highway-52 many times, you don't usually see what appears to be a goat behind the guardrail, and I almost didn't believe what I was seeing.\nTurns out, Iggy-- as he was named in honor of the community where he was living-- was finally safely captured by Inver Grove Heights police earlier this week. They posted pictures of Iggy's humane capture on their Facebook page. He's spending a few days at the U of M's Large Animal Hospital and after that, he'll be making his home at Farmaste, a Minnesota-based non-profit animal sanctuary located in Lindstrom.\nspeaking of police, this rochester brewery wants you to stop stealing its glasses!",

The relationship never got that far because the Milwaukee Bucks claimed the former Kentucky star off waivers to add to their stable.\nAfter 31 games and one start, Milwaukee parted ways with Liggins and New Orleans came calling and offered a couple 10-day runs. While with the Bucks, Liggins averaged 15 minutes and just 1.8 points per contest.\nHis production over four games with the Pelicans showed that he maximized his action on the court. In just shy of 13 minutes per contest, Liggins is up to 4 points per game and hit 7 of 9 shots in those four contests.\nAs it currently stands, Liggins switches from one playoff contender for another though his former team is in a slightly better situation heading into the All-Star Break. Milwaukee is currently the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference while New Orleans seventh in the West and 1.5 games in front of Clippers who are the ninth team in the standings.\nWithout DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles) and the addition of Nikola Mirotic to add to the presence of Anthony Davis, Liggins will try to add depth to a club desperately trying to navigate the Western Conference gauntlet.\nSource: Former Skyforce Guard Now Permanently New Orleans Pelicans Property\nFiled Under: NBA, sioux falls skyforce",

        "raw_content": "Sep 22 Polemical intervention or analytical contribution?\n\"THE LEFT\u2019S JEWISH PROBLEM\" is an ideological tract and an intervention in the current battle in the Labour Party. It is designed to show \u201ca sickness at the heart of left wing British politics\u2026 silently spreading, becoming ever more malignant\u201d (cover blurb). That sickness is the sickness of antisemitism.\nOf course there are antisemitic ideas around in Britain and it would be nonsense to assume that the left was immune. But Rich is on a mission to show antisemitism as widespread, systematic, hegemonic on the left.\nAs Rich is aware, there isn\u2019t much Jew-hatred of a traditional kind around on the left. There is, rather, he believes, a different kind of antisemitism, expressed as an anti-Zionism of the left, in which movements and thinkers have come to view Israel and Zionism as \u201ca product of western colonialism rather than a liberation movement against it\u201d.\nThat large sections of \u201cthe left\u201d fell out of love with Israel and came to rally around support for Palestinian rights and a Palestinian state is relatively uncontested. But why the change? For Rich, this shift couldn\u2019t be a response to events, analysis, or improved understanding. It was, rather, an ideological hijacking by the \u201cNew Left\u201d.\nRich\u2019s New Left, with Corbyn as its embodiment, is a curious construct. \u201cAs New Left superseded Old,\u201d he writes, \u201cso identity politics replaced class politics as its primary mobilising idea\u2026 [This New Left represents] a new social class, rooted in intellectual and cultural professions, populated by public sector workers whose political agenda would come to be dominated by identity and iconoclasm.\u201d\nSo the movement behind Corbyn is somehow viewed as a break with all tradition, rather than a popular, deeply-rooted, left trade union and social movement, trying to incorporate class and identity issues, in a desire to restore something of older Labour concerns: equality, social ownership, trade union rights, anti-imperialism and more.\nRich operates with free-floating, unchanging essences. So Zionism is, was and always will be nothing but selfdetermination/ national liberation. Who could possibly criticise that? So by definition, describing Israel as a colonial-settler or apartheid society can\u2019t have any truth in it. It can only be an emotional attempt to demonise Israel.\nFor Rich, such concepts are products of a New Left mindset: the apartheid analogy was \u201chardwired into left wing anti-Israel politics in Britain during its formative [anti-apartheid] years in the 1960s and 1970s.\u201d\nBut what if these concepts are gaining ground precisely because they make increasing sense of an emergent reality? Events have played a crucial role in shifting ideas on the left in relation to Israel-Palestine \u2013 from the 1956 Suez invasion to the televised spectacle of phosphorus bombs falling on Gaza and bodies of children in the rubble.\nWhatever Zionism might or might not have been originally, what has it become? Israel\u2019s colonisation of the West Bank continues unabated. Green-line Israel\u2019s discrimination against its increasingly second-class Palestinian citizens, and their physical displacement in the Negev, rolls on. What Israel is now needs to be judged by what it is doing, not by its ideological selfimage. Israel\u2019s actions are what are delegitimising it, not any antisemitism of the left.\nIt is clearly wrong to argue that all claims of antisemitism are simply made in order to silence criticism of Israel. Allegations of antisemitism should be taken seriously and investigated swiftly. But making an allegation is not the same thing as establishing a fact. Rich is entirely oblivious to (or simply ignores) the context in which recent accusations emerged \u2013 why, for example, emotionally charged posts and tweets from the 2014 Gaza war should only be dredged up in 2016, under Corbyn\u2019s leadership. It does not take much to see the timing as contrived, rather than an innocent desire to unmask antisemitism.\nClearly, insofar as some remarks are antisemitic they need to be confronted. Conspiracy theories, e,g. that Israel founded Isis or that Jews escaped 9/11, should be dismissed out of hand. Individuals who make them should be dealt with appropriately. But appropriately means appropriately. It doesn\u2019t mean suspensions without charge, condemnation without a hearing, or leaking stories to the Jewish Chronicle or Daily Telegraph - in short, the weaponisation of antisemitism and the complete absence of due process we have witnessed in recent months. On all this Rich has nothing to say.\nIf Rich\u2019s book encourages us to be more precise in our language, to temper how we express our emotional outrage at the things Israel does with impunity, to be more strategic in how we build support for Palestinian rights, it may (inadvertently!) achieve something useful. But in its own terms, it must be treated as a polemical intervention rather than a serious analytical contribution to our understanding of antisemitism (or the left) today.\nis a co-founder and past Chair of Jews for Justice for Palestinians,\nand member of Holborn and St Pancras CLP.\nSep 22 Understanding Capitalism and Crisis\nSep 22 If Jeremy wins",

A pupil of the nearby Brussels Academy, he first came to public and critical attention in 1895 when, at the age of nineteen, he was invited to show at the Exposition de Ghent. The previous year he, along with a number of other young artists, had formed the art group `Le Sillon' a loosely grouped society of painters intending to form their own exhibitions away from the established art institutions. In 1896 he went on a tour of France to gain further experience, from there traveling to London.\nHis work during this period consisted mostly of dramatic figurative pieces although it would be as a portraitist that he would later establish his reputation. Returning to Belgium he settled in the art colony of Rouge-Cloitre only to move again in 1914 at the outbreak of World War One. For the duration of hostilities he lived in London where, from a house in Chelsea, he submitted works for inclusion in the exhibitions of the Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts.\nIn 1919 he settled finally in Brussels where he was to die three years later at the age of forty-six. His paintings are remembered for their wonderfully skilled chiaroscuro and the haunting melancholy of their subjects. As a portraitist he counted many of Belgium's literati and artisans amongst his sitters including the painter, Frans Smeers and the romance writer Georges Eckhoud.\nPaintings by Maurice Blieck are housed in a number of museums including those at Antwerp, Bruges, Brussels, Ixelles and Verviers.\nDictionnaire des Peintres Belges",

You may be able to make use of assets inside your estate to benefit charities or others, but talking with a lawyer can help you understand your choices.\nMost people assume that if they don\u2019t have a substantial amount in savings then they don\u2019t need to worry about estate planning. What about your 401(k)? Or your life insurance policy? These items may already be in place but could require that you name someone to get these benefits when you pass away. These items pass away outside of your typical estate plan, so you need to have an awareness about who you name as beneficiary and whether that will change over time.\nThe right estate planning attorney can tell you more about philanthropic options if you wish to get involved in giving some of your assets to charity. Setting up plans in advance allows you to leave as much as possible to your other loved ones if you wish or to a charity. Without planning, the courts will take matters into their discretion when deciding what happens to your belongings and assets after you pass away.

Bauer, John P. Haisken-DeNew and Christoph M. Schmidt The second half of the 20 th century has seen major shifts in the nature and the extent of worldwide migration. While the classical immigration countries such as the United States have remained major receiving areas, their sources of immigration have changed substantially, away from the traditional European sources to Latin America and Asia. At the same time, many societies in Europe have been transformed by their intense and multi-faceted immigration experience in the sixty years after World War II. Finally the enlargement of the EU in combination with increasing migration activity worldwide has placed migration high on the European agenda. This does not only apply to the EU 15 countries. In addition, Central European countries face increasing problems with their new role as transit countries for people heading towards Western Europe. Also the characteristics of the migration flows have become more diverse. Temporary migration of workers, especially highly skilled workers, is increasingly growing in importance, while traditional migration networks appear to be losing their significance. More restrictive migration policies towards asylum seekers, refugees and unskilled workers has increased the volume of illegal immigration and human trafficking. The overarching theme of the current migration debate is the nature of the economic effects for the receiving economies. However, neither the causes and consequences of migration are well understood, nor is it obvious how to predict its development into the future. Most importantly, immigration has become a more variegated phenomenon, making a shift of research effort, particularly to the receiving region Europe, indispensable. Within Europe, the free movement agreement of the European Union in principle smoothes the way for labour migration across national borders. Yet despite the demise of socialism in Eastern Europe, mobility within the European Union still seems rather low or even negligible, thereby moving migration from outside Europe into the centre of the discussion. The current situation of the European labour markets is characterised by rather high average unemployment. However, there is typically a concurrent shortage of highly skilled labour. Thus, European economists argue increasingly for an immigration policy directed at actively recruiting highly qualified workers from abroad. Among migration experts there is even a growing perception that the industrialised countries have been involved for a long time in a constant competition for highly skilled workers (for a recent overview on highly skilled migration see Rothgang and Schmidt, 2003). In addition, Europe s societies are ageing, placing their pay-as-you-go social security systems under considerable demographic pressure. It is increasingly realised by the public that a regulation of future immigration that is tailored to attract young and economically successful migrants can alleviate some of the demographic burden associated with an ageing population (Bonin et al., 2000). In this paper, we outline a systematic classification of economic migration research according to its major conceptual and applied questions. The state of theoretical and empirical research in the literature is briefly reviewed and presented within a clear conceptual framework. Although there is no unique, all-encompassing theoretical model linking together all aspects of the different topics of economic migration research, the main issues can be conceptualised within three broad lines of research. The first research area is concerned with the factors which determine the decision to migrate, and consequently with the magnitude and the composition of migration flows. The analysis of this theme is an important prerequisite for the understanding both of migrant performance and the impact of immigration, which are the other two areas of economic migration research. Research on the economic performance of immigrants in the destination country examines how migrants wages and employment outcomes or their dependence on the welfare system compare to those of\n2 112 The new demographic regime comparable natives, and how this comparison evolves as the migrants duration of residence increases. A closely related aspect concerns the perception of, and the attitudes towards, immigrants by the native population in the receiving country. A third line of research analyses the economic impact of immigration on the indigenous population and the macroeconomic performance of the destination country. Perhaps most importantly, we examine whether immigration reduces the wages or employment prospects of natives or earlier immigrants, and by what mechanisms. A mirror image of these research questions is also presented which studies concerns over the possible brain drain caused by emigration from sending countries. These three areas are interrelated with one another and have a potentially significant influence on immigration policy. Migrants skills are perhaps the central theme of all economic migration research. Since immigration policy might well influence the composition of immigration flows and since formal and informal human capital endowments mainly determine the economic performance of immigrants in their destination country, as well as their impact on it immigration policy can have a decisive role on the consequences of immigration. Throughout the paper, we will concentrate our discussion on the UNECE region (i.e. all the countries of Europe, plus Turkey and Israel, Canada and the United States, and all countries of the former Soviet Union including the Central Asian Republics). In the first section, we provide a general typology of migration and migrants, as well as a critical discussion on the reliability of existing statistical information on international migration. Migration flows in the region before and after 1990, together with the policy responses of the countries towards immigration, are described in the following section. Particular attention is paid to the background of an ageing society and the demand for highly skilled workers. The third section offers a survey of the economic literature with regard to the performance of immigrants in the economy and their integration into the society of their receiving countries. The fourth section discusses the economic impact of migration. In the final section we discuss expectations with regard to future migration flows and the policy options of different immigration countries to deal with these flows. Introduction Migration in a historical perspective In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, international labour mobility played a central role for many countries in the development of their societies, in international economic integration and in economic growth. In the early 1900s, migration experienced a temporary high, as the overall attitude towards immigration was then quite liberal. Similarly, in the 1960s and early 1970s many receiving countries actively recruited labour from other countries to deal with their perceived lack of unskilled labour. Starting with the first oil price shock in 1973, the attitude of most receiving countries changed towards the limitation of immigration, resulting in a zero immigration policy in many European countries. In most cases, this change in attitude reflects anxieties that immigration of unskilled individuals exerts detrimental economic effects on natives by increasing income inequality and unemployment. In addition to these economic arguments, opponents of immigration fear that it may increase social tensions and endanger national identities. Because of these arguments, the pressure to tighten immigration opportunities has been very strong, especially in Europe. Even though there is little public support for further immigration, many European countries have recently begun to take new, though modest, initiatives to admit more migrant workers. These new initiatives are almost exclusively directed towards highly skilled migrants, reflecting an increasing worldwide demand for skilled labour. Despite the resistance of many receiving countries towards further immigration, worldwide migration flows have increased since the 1980s and the early 1990s (see OECD, 1999). In the last decade, the number of sovereign states directly involved in international migration is rising steadily. According to the IOM (2003), the total number of international migrants in 2000 is estimated at approximately 175 million. In other words, in 2000, one out of every 35 persons worldwide was an international migrant, compared to about one in 45 in the 1970s and 1980s. With a stock of migrants of about 56 million, Europe is the most important receiving area, followed by Asia, which has a migrant stock of almost 50 million, and North America with about 41 million migrants. For example, between 1988 and 1997 the share of the foreign population increased from 4.5 per cent to 9.1 per cent in Austria, from 7.3 per cent to 9.0 per cent in Germany, and from 5 per cent to 6 per cent in Sweden (OECD, 1999). 1 Measured in per capita terms, however, the Oceania-Pacific region, with a migrant stock of 19 per cent of the total population has the largest share of immigrants, followed by North America with 13 per cent. Note however, that these two continents include the four traditional immigration countries of Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. Six out of the 10 countries with the highest net immigration from See also Salt (2002) and Wanner (2002) for recent surveys of current migration trends in Europe.\n3 International labour migration are either in Europe or North America. 2 The leading country in terms of the absolute number of emigrants is Mexico, followed by Bangladesh, Afghanistan, the Philippines, Kazakhstan, Viet Nam, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Colombia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina (see IOM, 2003, Tables 17.4 and 17.5). The increasing mobility of individuals throughout the world can be traced back to a variety of factors. These include the collapse of the socialist regimes in Eastern Europe, rising income differentials between rich and poor countries, and armed conflicts and human rights violations. Falling communication and transportation costs have increased the information flow about economic conditions in potential receiving areas and reduced the difficulties in financing the costs of migration. Together with a gradual evolution of the various push and pull factors that feed migration flows, the worldwide globalisation process has also resulted in a change of the migration experience of many countries. In contrast to earlier decades, not only have the traditional immigration countries (Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States) been affected by increasing migration flows, but also most other countries in the UNECE region. For the traditional immigration countries, immigration was an essential ingredient for the early development of their society. However, there are significant differences in the migration policies adopted by these countries. The United States relies to a large extent on family migration, while the others follow a mixed strategy, managing immigration through quotas for different types of immigrants and a selective policy towards labour migrants by means of a points system. Nevertheless, these countries share a common characteristic in that they are still encouraging immigration for permanent settlement on a significant scale. The second major type of immigration countries in the region comprises those with either post-colonial immigration (predominantly the United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands) or those which actively recruit temporary workers (for example Austria, Germany and Sweden). Even countries that historically have been emigration countries, such as Italy, Spain and Ireland, recently have become immigration countries. Apart from return migration, these countries do not have long experience with the inflow of foreign workers and are only just developing immigration policies. In the case of the Southern European countries, the increased inflow consists mainly of irregular migrants. Together with some countries in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) (e.g. the Russian Federation, the Caucasus, the Czech Republic and Poland), they also act as transit countries for irregular migrants heading north and west. Estimates suggest that hundreds of thousands of irregular migrants from Africa, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and China try to enter the EU via these transit countries each year (IOM, 2003). Provoked by the fall of the Iron Curtain, some countries in Eastern Europe became important emigration countries. Many ethnic migrants returned from their East European home country to West European countries. For example, 300,000 Bulgarians of Turkish origin have returned to Turkey since Finland faced immigration of ethnic Finns from the Baltic states and the former USSR (IOM, 2003). The country receiving the most ethnic migrants has been Germany. Between 1989 and 2001, more than 2.5 million ethnic Germans from the former USSR, Romania and Poland arrived in Germany (Bauer et al., 2004). In addition, some CEE countries have become a major source of temporary labour in the EU. Again, Germany acts as the main receiving country for this type of worker. Polish and Czech workers especially migrate as contract workers or seasonal workers over the eastern borders of Germany. 3 The political changes after the fall of the Iron Curtain also initiated large-scale migration flows within the CEE countries, with migration occurring mainly between neighbouring countries (Romanians to Hungary, Czechs to Slovakia, Ukrainians to Poland and Bulgaria). Finally, the war in the former Yugoslavia resulted in a huge number of refugees arriving in the EU. Concepts: migration and migrants Migration is usually defined as the movement of a person or group of persons from one geographical unit to another across an administrative or political border, and wishing to settle permanently or temporarily in a place other than their place of origin. Since the movement between two geographical units does not have to occur directly, one can further differentiate between the place of origin or sending region, transit regions, and the place of destination or receiving region (see IOM, 2003, p.8). Movements within a country are usually defined as internal migration and, accordingly, movements across international borders are called international migration. Henceforth, we exclusively focus on international migration. The broad concept of migration comprises many different forms of migration flows and distinct types of migrants. To organise our ideas about this phenomenon, we briefly develop a typology of migrants based on three key characteristics. Different combinations of these 2 The other four countries include Saudi Arabia, India, Australia and the United Arab Emirates. 3 See Bauer et al. (2003) for a more detailed description of temporary migration into Germany.\n4 114 The new demographic regime FIGURE 1 Typology of migrants Who is making the decision? Families Individuals What is the motive for the decision? Economic opportunity abroad Investment for economic opportunity Extended Family Networks Political, ethnic, or religious oppression Legal Legal Illegal Permanent temporary What is the regulatory environment? factors comprehensively describe the various modes of migration. Figure 1 shows the three main questions affecting migrants and is represented by a triangle: (a) Who is making the decision; (b) What is the motive for the migration decision; and (c) What is the regulatory environment? In terms of migration motives one can differentiate three types of migrants: those seeking economic opportunity in the destination economy; migrants who aim to accumulate savings or human capital while abroad in order to have increased economic opportunities upon their return; and migrants who move because of political, ethnic or religious oppression in their home country. For the majority of migrants, the main driving force behind the migration decision is the desire to improve their material living conditions or quality of life. Usually it is assumed that these migrants plan their move and invest in information and those aspects of human capital that are necessary for a successful integration into the labour market and society of the receiving country (Chiswick, 1978). A related motive for working abroad is the accumulation of savings or skills with the objective of returning to their place of origin and building a better future there. Migrants with these motives may not be obvious in the data. By contrast to these two motives, ethnic migrants, asylum seekers and refugees migrate either because they are discriminated against in their country of origin because of their ethnicity, race or gender, or they are forced to move because of armed conflict in their home country. Even though this is coerced migration, empirical evidence suggests that their choice of receiving country is determined at least partly by economic considerations (Rotte and Vogler, 1998). In general, the migration decision can be made by individuals, families or an extended family network. In contrast to individual migrants, the decision of family migrants is only partly driven by their own social and economic considerations (Mincer, 1978). Rather, the opportunities and restrictions of all family members influence the decision. Thus it might not be sufficient to examine only individual motivations to understand migration decisions. It might even be the extended family which makes the migration decision. A member of the network might be sent away to work in a location which is characterised by a better economic climate to ensure the extended family against economic instability at home. Regarding the regulatory environment, one can differentiate three possibilities: legal permanent migrants who wish to settle in their place of destination indefinitely; legal temporary migrants who aim to stay in the receiving region only for a limited period before returning to their place of origin or moving on to another destination area; and illegal migrants. The legal status has direct consequences on the living situation of a migrant in the receiving area. Illegal migrants are often not eligible for social and medical assistance and will have a difficult time securing certain civil rights. They may also be subject to detention, expulsion, deportation and prosecution. In addition, illegal migration, especially of women and children, is increasingly associated with the trafficking and smuggling of human beings. 4 4 See IOM (2003) for a more detailed discussion and some estimates on the numbers of individuals involved in this type of migration.\n5 International labour migration 115 The above typology of migrants covers the characteristics of the main groups of migrants observed. The migration decision of guest-workers and so-called target savers, for example, is usually an individual decision to migrate temporarily on a legal basis to another country for economic reasons. For asylum seekers, the decision to migrate is most often made by families because of some form of oppression in their home country and upon the approval of their asylum status they aim to stay permanently in their receiving country on a legal basis. However, a typology based on three characteristics cannot be completely exhaustive. The same person can change classification depending on their place of origin and/or destination and with period of residence in the receiving country. Destinations are not clear cut, either. Even though the migration decision of asylum seekers and refugees may be due to the political and social situation in their place of origin, their choice of destination area may be determined by economic reasons or family networks. Hence, it may be unclear from the viewpoint of the receiving area whether to classify an asylum seeker or refugee as a humanitarian or economic migrant. Furthermore, the experience of many guest-worker countries in Western Europe has shown that migrants who originally intended or were supposed to stay only temporarily often change into permanent immigrants. Migrants who settle in a country by overstaying their visa, or by immigrating without valid or with forged documents, often have the opportunity to subsequently obtain legal residence status in the receiving region, for example by regularisation programmes. In addition, changes in residence permit or work permit laws in the destination regions often result in changes in the legal status of the migrants already residing in those countries. Because of different regulations between countries concerning residence and work permits, the same migrant could hold a different legal status in different destination regions. Paucity of reliable statistical information on migration and its characteristics Unfortunately, the main source of statistical information in migration research has been aggregate data, either in the form of time series or as regional crosssections. Time series data are more prevalent. This could be explained by the availability of data provided by the statistical offices in their respective countries or by international organisations such as the OECD. In addition, the econometric tools for analysing aggregate time series data are, in principle, sufficiently developed to allow a sound analysis. The quality of such studies, however, is impaired by the low quality of the data. Even for single countries the material is often flawed by measurement problems. For instance, it is often difficult to obtain reliable numbers for out-migration even in countries with a tight registration system: emigrants are often not compliant when it comes to deregistration. Because international migration statistics are produced at the national level, cross-country studies almost always suffer from problems of data comparability. There are substantial differences between countries in their measurement of migration streams, which can largely be explained by their different institutions, different definitions of migration and migrants, and a persistent lack of cooperation between the responsible national statistical institutions. 5 One major source of data incomparability is the definition of a migrant. Many European countries collect information only on persons that do not hold the citizenship of their country of residence. Researchers are often forced to use this information as a proxy for the number of migrants in a particular country, because separate statistics of foreign-born people are not available. These studies do not properly capture naturalisations, second generation immigrants or ethnic migrants. 6 Furthermore, migration studies using time series data are often faced with the problem that they are unable to discriminate between migrants moving for the purpose of seeking out economic opportunity and coerced migrants. Econometric studies on the determinants of international migration often need to explicitly or implicitly use strong identification assumptions in order to be able to assess the impact of explanatory demographic and economic factors on the magnitude of migration flows (Fertig and Schmidt, 2001b); whatever the model, they may suffer from measurement errors resulting from the low quality of the underlying data (Bauer and Zimmermann, 1998). Over the last decade, researchers have increasingly analysed individual-level data. Because of the availability of such data in the United States, this trend has been much stronger there than in Europe. The investigation of individual-level data was hampered in the past by limited computer facilities and econometric techniques to deal with the often discrete or only partly continuous nature of the data, if such data was available at all. Due to the tremendous improvement of computer technologies, this situation has changed dramatically since the 1980s, making it possible to handle large data sets on PCs or workstations. Currently the availability of such data is more and more the real problem, at least in 5 See IOM (2003, Chapter 16) for a very detailed discussion on the problems of international migration statistics. 6 For instance, Germany has received millions of ethnic German migrants in recent decades, none of which are covered in the official stock statistics of migrants. As a result of the rather restrictive German naturalisation laws, many second generation immigrants are still counted as foreigners, even though they were born in Germany. There are similar problems in many other European countries.\n6 116 The new demographic regime Europe, because this type of data is often not made available to researchers, with the argument that this would endanger the privacy of respondents. 7 To summarise, long-term comparable and reliable time-series of stock and flow data of migrants between countries are not currently available, although there is a long-standing recognition of the importance of providing better international migration statistics. Reliable statistics on irregular migration and the social and economic situation of undocumented migrants are (partly by their nature) non-existent. To a large extent, illegal migration is measured using border apprehension data, which is widely recognised as being unreliable and unusable for cross-country comparisons because of differences in national definitions. In future, individual-level data could usefully be made available to researchers by making small changes to data security regulations or by applying easily available methods to make data anonymous. Further efforts to improve international migration statistics (for example along the lines of the United Nations Recommendations on International Migration Statistics) and the access of researchers to individuallevel data of migrants should be high on the current policy agenda. Labour Migration Of the three central topics of migration research decision, performance and impact it is the migration decision, together with an analysis of its economic factors and the corresponding migration flows, that has the longest intellectual history (see e.g. Ravenstein, 1889). The standard neoclassical model of the migration decision perceives migration as an individual investment made under perfect information. Within this cost-benefit framework, the individual compares the present value of the expected present and future costs and returns of migration (Sjaastad, 1962). The returns comprise monetary returns, mainly from changes in labour earnings, as well as non-monetary returns associated with amenities such as an attractive climate and environment. The costs of migration consist of monetary cost, such as travel expenses and search costs for finding an occupation in the host country, as well as non-monetary costs of migration, such as foregone earnings and the psychological costs arising from the loss of a familiar environment and the confrontation with another culture. Migration would be worthwhile if the returns of migration are expected to exceed these costs. Aggregate migration flows should then comprise all candidate individuals who expect such a positive net return. While this traditional reasoning provides the intellectual basis for virtually all aggregate-level empirical studies, their actual performance has been 7 A detailed discussion of the methodological problems arising from the use of individual data is provided by Bauer and Zimmermann (1998). disappointing. Typically, these empirical analyses regress a measure of aggregate migration intensity on a kitchen-sink set of aggregate explanatory factors comprising wage or income information, and perhaps employment rates (Fertig and Schmidt, 2001b). Unfortunately, no stable patterns emerge from these studies whatsoever, mainly as a reflection of data limitations. Therefore, the precise economic determinants of aggregate migration flows are still being discussed. Since there are several recent literature surveys on the determinants of migration (see, among others, Molho, 1986, and Bauer and Zimmermann, 1998, 2002), this section will concentrate on a description of migration flows and the significant developments of migration policies in the region. Flows of labour migrants in the region Apart from accepting migration for humanitarian reasons, such as political asylum or family reunification, the countries of Europe and North America have recently started to perceive migration as an answer to mediumterm labour supply shortages and an overall ageing of the population. Indeed, many countries have recently focused on expanding immigration to fulfil labour market requirements of specific industries or labour market segments, such as Germany with its intensely debated Green Card programme. This section examines the various motives for, and recent experiences with, migration in Europe and North America. Table 1 illustrates the cumulative net immigration flows for selected West European countries before and after It is apparent from this table that overall immigration into these countries has increased during the 1990s. Apart from Iceland, all countries in Europe TABLE 1 Cumulative net migration flows in Europe In 1000s Percentage In 1000s Percentage Austria Belgium Denmark Finland France Germany Greece Iceland Ireland Italy Luxemburg Netherlands Norway Portugal Spain Sweden Switzerland United Kingdom Source: IOM (2003), p. 240.\n7 International labour migration 117 experienced a positive net inflow of migrants between 1990 and Traditional emigration countries, such as Finland, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain changed to being significant receiving countries in the 1990s. Italy, for example, entirely reversed its tradition as a country of emigration, with approximately 900,000 people emigrating to other countries between 1960 and 1990, to a receiving country, compensating the previous three decades of population loss within a single decade (between 1990 and 2000 Italy experienced net immigration of 1.2 million people). A similar development can be observed for Ireland. Whereas this country experienced a net outflow of almost 300,000 people between 1960 and 1990, it faced net immigration of nearly 100,000 individuals between 1990 and With the exception of France, all countries in Western Europe show an increase of their immigration rates in the 1990s in comparison to the previous three decades. In Denmark, net immigration increased from an average of 3,000 individuals per year in the period from 1960 to 1990, to an average of almost 10,000 in the 1990s. In the United Kingdom, the average annual net immigration increased by a factor of more than 21. Finally, in Germany the European country receiving the most immigrants the average annual immigration increased from about 160,000 in the period from to slightly more than 360,000 in the 1990s. TABLE 2 Inflows of permanent residents/composition of admissions Family (per cent) Employment (per cent) Australia Canada United States Source: OECD (2003), pp. 299, 301, 310 and last two columns and IOM (2003), p Table 2 reports the inflows of permanent residents into the traditional immigration countries of Australia, Canada and the United States through the 1990s 8. Comparing these levels to that of Germany, which has absorbed 3.6 million immigrants into its total population of 82 million, one sees the relatively smaller absorption of migrants into the United States (9 million individuals out of over 278 million) in terms of population size. The last two columns of table 2 show the composition of immigrant admissions for the year 2000, broken down either as migrants immigrating through family reunification programmes or employment-based immigrants. Not included in this table are all other immigrants (humanitarian entries, refugees, privately- assisted and government-assisted migrants and asylum seekers). Table 2 clearly indicates the effect of the main difference in the immigration policy between the United States on the one hand, and Canada and Australia on the other. Whereas the latter predominantly seek to attract workers, who are selected through their respective points systems, the United States policy focuses to a large extent on the reunification of families. Note, however, that the figures for the United States do not include illegal migrants, who tend to immigrate predominantly in order to work in the United States. Hence, if illegal migrants were also considered, the above picture might change somewhat. Obtaining similar data for European countries is very difficult. Table 3 shows the inflows of migrants into selected European countries from 1997 to 2000 and where available their composition or reason for inflow. In France, family-related immigration exceeds immigration for employment reasons by a factor of 3 to 1. The figures for Germany, however, seem to indicate that immigration for employment reasons appear to dominate there. Note, however, that the number of work TABLE 3 Composition/inflows of migrants Flows/stocks in thousands France Total inflow For family reasons For employment Germany Total inflow New work permits Ethnic Germans Italy New work permits Residence permit: stock, for employment Residence permit: stock, for family Residence permit: stock, total United Kingdom Total inflow, non EU Acceptance for settlement: own right Acceptance for settlement: family Source: OECD (2003), pp. 174, 180, 201, 223, 273. permits issued for the first time may be a misleading indicator on the composition of immigrants, since some groups such as family migrants need to have a residence permit for some time before being eligible for a work 8 These figures do not include temporary migrants, as this information was not available for all countries for the time period.\n8 118 The new demographic regime permit. 9 Noteworthy in the case of Germany is the substantial inflow of ethnic migrants from the former USSR, dwarfing the volume of immigration experienced by France. For Italy information on total inflows is not available. However, the number of residence permits issued in Italy for employment reasons is more than double those issued for family reasons. In contrast to these countries, the number of immigrants accepted into the United Kingdom for family reasons outnumber those accepted for employment reasons dramatically. Due to the political changes which started in 1989, and the accompanying ethnic conflicts and uneven economic development, migration in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) changed dramatically in the 1990s. Although some migration had taken place in this region pre , these migration flows were largely controlled by the respective states and consisted to a large extent of military personnel and ethnic migration both within the region as well as towards Western Europe. The latter consisted mainly of ethnic Germans from Poland, Romania and the former Soviet Union to Germany, plus Russian Jews migrating either to Israel or to the United States. In the 1990s, the CIS and CEE countries witnessed major population movement. 11 Especially in the early 1990s, the CIS region experienced increased inter-state migration flows towards Belarus, Ukraine and Russia. Most migration to Russia in the 1990s was ethnic and political, linked to the collapse of the Soviet Empire, decolonisation and the emergence of independent states in Central Asia. The main sources of these flows were: the migration of Russians from the former USSR republics back to Russia itself (in particular from the states of Central Asia, especially Kazakhstan); a large number of displaced persons and refugees in the Caucasus and Russia; and an increased inter-state flow of temporary workers (Zaionchkovskaya, 1996, 2000). Mainly due to stricter border controls, these migration flows have generally dropped in recent years. Current migration trends indicate that Russia continues to receive the most migrants in the CIS, followed by the Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Belarus. Repatriates are the largest group of migrants in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. Kazakhstan is not only experiencing large emigration rates (especially towards Russia) but is also accommodating the largest number of immigrants from Central Asia. 9 See Bauer, Larsen and Matthiesen (2004) for a detailed description of the current German regulations on immigration. 10 See, for example, Zaionchkovskaya (1996) for a survey of migration flows within the former Soviet Union. 11 See IOM (2002a) for a recent report on migration in the CIS and the CEE. Overviews are also provided by Subhan (1998) and Zaionchkovskaya (2000). Due to inter-ethnic conflicts and poor economic development, the three countries of the South Caucasus (Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia) still face large emigration rates, both towards other former republics of the Soviet Union as well as Western Europe and North America. In addition, these countries have become major transit countries for asylum seekers and refugees from Afghanistan, Chechnya and Iraq (IOM, 2003). Rather surprisingly, emigration towards countries outside the CIS is rather low. It reached its peak in the early 1990s but since then the trend has declined. Asylum seekers from the Caucasus countries, plus asylum seekers, refugees and economic migrants from the Middle East and Asia, use this area as a transit region on their way to Western Europe or North America. A significant proportion of the emigrants are ethnic migrants heading predominantly to Germany and Israel. Finally, a major problem of this region is the growing trafficking of human beings towards Western European countries, especially of women who are often forced into prostitution. 12 Many CEE countries have experienced major changes with regard to migration in the last few years. In the early 1990s, most of these countries were major source countries for migrants moving to Western Europe and North America. This flow consisted to a large extent of ethnic migration, such as the movement of ethnic Germans from Poland and Romania to Germany, ethnic Finns from the Baltic States and former USSR to Finland, and ethnic Turks from Bulgaria to Turkey. In addition, the political changes in the early 1990s created substantial migration flows between neighbouring countries such as between Romania and Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and between Ukraine, Poland and Bulgaria. Furthermore, large numbers of temporary workers moved from the CEE countries to Western Europe, especially from Poland to Germany. 13 Finally, the civil war in the former Yugoslavia resulted in large flows of asylum seekers and refugees heading towards the EU as well as movements between the former Yugoslav republics. Some of those who were accommodated as temporarily protected persons in Western European countries were later repatriated. With the start of the negotiations for potential EU membership of ten CEE countries (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia) and the associated adoption of EU Acquis in the fields of asylum and immigration, some of these countries transformed into transit and immigration countries. The CEE countries which experienced relatively fast economic development such as the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia are now 12 See, for example, the reports by Galiana (2000) and IOM (2002b). 13 A detailed description of temporary migration between Poland and Germany is provided by Bauer and Zimmermann (1999).\n9 International labour migration 119 seeing positive net migration rates, whereas countries which lagged behind in their economic development such as Bulgaria and Romania have remained emigration countries (Subhan, 1998). Immigrants into the CEE countries comprise both economic migrants and asylum seekers and refugees from the CIS countries, the Middle East and Asia, as well as migrants who use these countries as a transit region. Some of them become stranded in these countries. Their number is tending to increase because of increasing difficulties in reaching their final desired destination because of tighter admission regulations. As in the CIS region, the CEE countries are facing a growing problem of irregular migration and trafficking of human beings. This is partly due to external factors, especially Western European migration policies. The Schengen rules for the enforcement of external borders to curb illegal migration, for example, inadvertently promote trafficking. Similarly, the development of asylum regulations in the CEE countries, together with the safe third country rule adopted by the EU member countries, shifted part of the asylum flow originally directed towards Western European countries back to the CEE countries. 14 Another trend is the increase in worldwide migration of highly skilled workers. Due to the lack of data on migration by skill groups, and the changing nature of migration (permanent vs. temporary migration), the movement of individuals across borders, skilled as well as unskilled, is not a well-documented phenomenon. The seminal paper on recent highly skilled migration is that of Carrington and Detragiache (1998). Based on 1990 United States census information and OECD data on stocks of foreign-born residents, they demonstrate that highly skilled migration dominates recent international migration flows, and that highly skilled emigration is of considerable concern to small origin countries. Rothgang and Schmidt (2003) augment the data used by Carrington and Detragiache with additional variables focusing on highly skilled migration rates. They tend to confirm the results of Carrington and Detragiache (1998) by concluding that smaller countries though not necessarily the low income economies tend to become increasingly deprived of their best talent. Moreover, there are active recruitment policies for highly skilled workers in operation in many major advanced economies such as the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany. These policies will be described in more detail below. In addition, across these same countries, there seems to be an increasing tendency to attract and, subsequently, retain students from less developed countries. Rothgang and Schmidt (2003) further show that, for several industrialised countries, 14 A more detailed discussion of issues related to the Acquis of EU rules on asylum and immigration is given below. foreign employment in the university sector and IT has caught up with and often even outstripped the health care sector, which has been the traditional sector for highly skilled migration. The proportion of foreigners employed in highly skilled jobs in these sectors differs substantially between the countries included in their study, with variations from 2.2 per cent of highly skilled professionals being foreign in the health care sector in France up to 19.5 per cent of university and college teachers being foreign in the United States. In the United Kingdom, the share of foreigners is particularly high in the health and university sectors. These numbers are smaller in Germany and France. n absolute numbers, the IT sector employs by far the largest number of foreigners. Regional demand for labour based on demographic processes In many countries of the region, persistently low fertility rates, increasing life expectancy and the associated ageing of the population, have given rise to fears about the pressure on public budgets, and the viability of pay-as-you-go social insurance systems. Existing population projections indeed suggest that countries such as Germany, Italy, Spain and Poland will experience a substantial decrease in their working age populations in the next 50 years. Germany, for example, is expected to have an 11 per cent smaller working age population by 2025, decreasing by a further 28 per cent by Even more significant is the decrease expected to be experienced by Italy and Spain: 15 per cent by 2025 and 42 per cent by Such a dramatic decline of the working age population may have severe macroeconomic consequences if the future workforce is unable to meet the quantitative and qualitative need for workers to sustain satisfactory economic expansion. The associated growing number of retirees dependent on benefits and pensions may further put the social security systems of these countries at risk. It should be noted, however, that not all Europeans countries face the same gloomy prospects. Countries such as the United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands are expected to experience only a moderate decline of their working age population, if any. The ageing process is also expected to be less severe in the traditional immigration countries of North America and Australia, partly because of the traditionally active role of immigration in the development of these countries, and their explicit policy goal of increasing their population through immigration. Only a very few countries of the UNECE, however, such as Albania and Ireland, which are characterised by relatively high fertility rates, are expected to experience an increase in their working age population (IOM, 2003). Table 4 emphasises the dilemma faced by many countries such as Italy and Spain. If female participation rates in these countries remain low (typically the majority of women in these countries have remained largely out of\n10 120 The new demographic regime TABLE 4 Projected population decline and labour force participation rates Labour force participation rate, 2000 of ages >75 per cent per cent <66 per cent >10 per cent Switzerland Austria, Finland Italy, Spain Germany, Czech Republic Hungary Projected 5-10 per cent Denmark Portugal Belgium, Greece population Sweden Poland decline <5 per cent United Kingdom France.. Netherlands Ireland, Slovakia Source: IOM (2003), p the labour market) and the working segment of the population that finances the social security system continues to shrink, a crisis of their social security systems seems unavoidable. One possible remedy would be structural changes of the current social and pension systems in these countries. Other proposed solutions are to actively increase female participations rates by improving access to day-care facilities and the compatibility of family and work, and to increase effective retirement ages. This could be achieved by discouraging early retirement or even increasing the mandatory retirement age. Increased immigration is often considered to be another potential solution to the ageing problem (see below). However, the effectiveness of such a migration policy may be limited for several reasons. The OECD (2003, p ) argues, for example, that migrants from neighbouring countries may not find it attractive to migrate to a receiving country, reducing the potential supply of migrants to people from very different cultures (e.g. migration of Turkish guest-workers to Germany in the 1960s). It may also be postulated that foreigners integrate more successfully in countries that are naturally expanding demographically. The IOM (2003, p.245) cautions that even while there might be an appropriate match to a labour market vacancy in the short run, the situation is not so clear in the longer run in a dynamic labour market, as to whether these new migrants will be able to adapt to changing economic and social situations. The relatively high unemployment rate of foreigners in Germany may act as a good example for this objection. Partly this can be traced backed to the guest-worker system in the 1960s and early 1970s which aimed at recruiting unskilled workers from Southern European countries; subsequently the demand for unskilled labour was reduced by technological progress. Even ignoring these possible problems of immigration, it is not clear by how much the age composition of the influx can be influenced effectively. After all, as long as family reunification is not precluded, even a migrant fulfilling all the demographic requirements (as in the Canadian points system, where age accounts for 10 per cent of all points awarded and language 24 per cent 15 ) may eventually apply to bring his parents or grandparents, thus negating or at least reducing the initial positive demographic impact. Finally, estimates of the fiscal contribution of immigrants suggest that increased immigration alone appears to be an insufficient solution to the ageing problem. Bonin et al. (2000) and Bonin (2001), for example, use the generational accounting method developed by Auerbach, Gokhale and Kotlikoff (1991, 1992) to analyse the effects of immigration on the longterm sustainability of public sector finances in Germany. Their results suggest that, because of immigrants favourable age composition, and because of the positive effect of immigration on the cohort size of native generations born in the future (who will share in the additional tax burden required to meet the intertemporal public budget constraint) the fiscal gains from admitting labour migration is potentially large. This positive fiscal contribution of immigrants could potentially be increased through a selective migration policy that screens potential immigrants by their skill level and promotes labour market integration of the migrants. Nevertheless, despite the significant positive net contribution of immigrants to the public sector, even very high levels of immigration are insufficient to eliminate the fiscal burden that is associated with demographic ageing. Auerbach and Oreopoulos (1999) have done a similar analysis for the United States. In contrast to Germany, however, their results suggest that the fiscal contribution of immigrants may be extremely small, reflecting the much less dramatic ageing process of the population and the already large share of foreign-born residents in the United States. 15 See Immigration Canada (2003).\nAnnual Report on Asylum and Migration Statistics 2004 and European Migration Network\nAnnual Report on Asylum and Migration Statistics 2004 and 2005 produced by the European Migration Network September 2008 This EMN Synthesis Report summarises the main findings for the years 2004 and 2005\nLabour mobility within the EU - The impact of enlargement and the functioning. of the transitional arrangements\nLabour mobility within the EU - The impact of enlargement and the functioning of the transitional arrangements Tatiana Fic, Dawn Holland and Pawe\u0142 Paluchowski National Institute of Economic and Social\nAnnual Report on Asylum and Migration Statistics European Migration Network\nAnnual Report on Asylum and Migration Statistics 2006 produced by the European Migration Network October 2009 This EMN Synthesis Report summarises the main findings for the year 2006 of the analysis of\nThe application of quotas in EU Member States as a measure for managing labour migration from third countries 1.

        "raw_content": "The Battle of Waterloo took place on 18 June 1815. It ended with the decisive victory for both armies: that of the allies, commanded by the Duke of Wellington, comprising British, German (contingents from Hannover, Brunswick and Nassau) and Dutch (Belgian and Holland) troops and the Prussians, commanded by Marshal Bl\u00fccher; both came up against the Northern Army from France led by Emperor Napoleon I.\nThe Commune of Waterloo is located around twenty kilometres south of Brussels, in Belgium. However, the fighting did not actually take place in Waterloo, but a little further to the south, in the current communes of Lasne and Braine-l'Alleud. In France, the battle has often been called the \"Battle of Mont Saint-Jean\", the more precise location of the actual combat. In Germany, it is called the \"Battle of the Belle -Alliance\".\nThis is the final battle in which Napoleon took part, having taken control of France during the One Hundred Days. Despite his desire to continue fighting with the new forces, he lacked political backing and had to abdicate four days after returning from Paris.\nThousands of participants from across many countries will meet on the battle ground for a large-scale historical reconstruction. Waterloo in June 2015!\nEveryone will be in period clothing, with bivouacs and combats opposing Napoleon's troops with Bl\u00fccher's and Wellington\u2019s troops\n2015 will mark the bicentenary of this major event!\nTo view a map and the addresses of the various locations please, click hier",

Section 2 also relieves the commission of the obligation to prove that a violation was intentional.\nSection 3 creates a legal services offset fund (fund) to supplement the money appropriated to the department for legal representation of commission staff by the department of law in commission matters concerning the enforcement of motor carrier regulations. Section 3 requires that the state treasurer transfer any money in excess of $250,000 in the fund to the general fund and sets an alternative maximum reserve for the fund, distinct from the maximum reserve generally applicable to cash funds, of $250,000.\nSection 1 requires the commission to transfer all penalties collected for violations of motor carrier regulations to the fund.\nSections 4, 5, and 6 clarify that a permittee's motor carrier permit is immediately revoked for failure to pay a civil penalty. These sections apply to permittees that are motor carriers of passengers, motor carriers of towed motor vehicles, and motor carriers of household goods, respectively.\n04/19/2017 - House Committee on Transportation & Energy Refer Unamended to Appropriations\n02/28/2017 - Senate Committee on Transportation Refer Amended to Appropriations",

        "raw_content": "DIY Friendly Aquaponics! What is Aquaponics!?\nComplete DIY guides,videos, and instructions!\nAquaponics is a one of a kind way that you can create an organic and self-sustainable food source right in your backyard, it is also very Eco-friendly! It\u2019s very easy and straightforward, and the stability in the system may be accomplished quite easily once you understand the concept of aquaponics. In a nutshell aquaponics harnesses waste materials produced by the Eco-system or fish of the aquarium to supply nutrients to plant life, the plants then return the favor by providing good bacteria and oxygen to the Eco-system.\nWhat is Aquaponics? and What is the difference between aquaponics, hydroponics and aquaculture?\nAquaculture systems are for the propagation of fish or related aquatic creatures like Crabs or Mollusks.\nHydroponics systems are for the propagation of plant life using water as a medium instead of soil. Great if all you want to do is grow some veggies or herbs with a DIY hydroponic system.\nAquaponics combines both aquaculture and hydroponics to create one of the most efficient food source systems available. This provides a mutually beneficial environment for both the fish and the plants, resulting in a symbiotic Eco-system providing you with two amazing food sources!\nThe plants grow in a bed as shown in the picture below. These systems do best growing vegetative crops like lettuce, tomatoes, and herbs but most other plants will work quite well.\nAlmost nothing is thrown away in aquaponics, as mentioned before even the waste is a key component of the system. It literally is renewable and self-sustainable.\nThe key reason why you should choose aquaponics?\nOther than having a self-sustainable supply of organically grown fish and vegetables? To begin with, lets get an overview of a regular aquaculture setup. A typical aquaculture setup must remove and replace no less than 10 % of the water within the system daily to prevent ammonia and nitrates from accumulating. The more fish you have the bigger the likely hood of building up poisonous amounts of these chemicals. A sealed aquaculture system that has 2,000 liters of water will need to exchange 200 liters of the water everyday. Each week, that\u2019s 1,400 liters. In a thirty day period, you might have to change out 6,000 liters of water just to keep the system in good health. Clearly, nobody wants to waste a great deal of water every single day. Therefore, we use aquaponics in obtaining a solution. Using aquaponics, you will have natural and organic veggies all year around if your weather isn't too extreme.

        "raw_content": "Yesterday's event at my girlfriend's family gathering went very well. I could tell the host was familiar with what I do--or was \"tipped off,\" because she immediately gave me ingredients for certain food items. It was very kind of her. I thanked her.\nI don't make a big scene with my food plan--I know what my boundaries are--and I'm willing to ask questions if needed, and I had a backup plan ready just in case the choices didn't fit for me. The responsibility for and commitment to my food plan is mine. This is a different approach to how it used to be years ago when I would conveniently place the responsibility on other people or the circumstances at the moment. Thoughts of \"well, if so and so wouldn't have brought that one thing, I could have been okay--I just couldn't resist that thing.\" Or, \"It was a party--and I didn't want to offend anyone by not eating the offerings. I had to at least try everything!\" You see how those two thoughts clearly transfer the responsibility for my daily practice food plan onto others and onto circumstances or environment? Those thoughts worked way back when because, in that thinking, it wasn't ever my fault. I was the victim--completely at the mercy of others and other things. Preparing and honoring a plan--and taking full responsibility for it, empowers us past a lot of the obstacles we created in the past.\nIdeally, when I go to an event like that--I go in, I take personal care of my food plan boundaries and I simply enjoy the celebration. I don't talk about it, I don't make it a big deal, I just take care of it--My food plan doesn't need to be nor should it be a topic of discussion unless someone asks me specific questions--and that happens sometimes, considering what I do in this public way. But, unless I ask a specific question about certain things or someone brings it up, it isn't the focus or a thing. I try to pour myself into the non-food elements of the get-together. I did that too. I had a wonderful conversation with and learned a great deal about her uncle's fascinating life.\nWhen I stay engaged in those ways, it helps keep my brain \"between the lines\" of my food plan. If I go into an event like that completely focused and obsessed over the food, I'll lose that mental tug-of-war every time. The best thing for me is to NOT pick up my end of the rope. I was so focused on the people and conversations, I didn't even notice the dessert table. That's a little miracle in itself. I also bookend texted a support friend with the intentions of my plan prior to the event. Setting up some accountability helps tremendously.\nTonight, we're attending a New Years Eve fundraiser event for a local chamber of commerce. The food situation will be similar to yesterday's event. Once again, I'm not certain of the choices available, so I'll make sure to keep a backup plan ready. I may eat prior to the event. I'll also be bookend support texting my intentions going into the event and coming out.\nTomorrow is New Years Day--wow, 2018 seemed fast! I'm looking forward to making 2019 a remarkable year in phenomenal ways!\nEpisode 19 of Transformation Planet released last night, late. It's my first short episode without an interview. If you're not subscribed, I hope you will! It's free! You'll find it available in Apple Podcasts (in the app store), Google Play store for Android, and wherever you find your favorite podcasts!\nWe have just a couple of openings in the private support group I facilitate. Our next 8-week session starts Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd. All members are in a secret Facebook group where we create accountability and give support to one another daily--then, once a week, we have our group coaching/mentoring calls. We have three call times: Wednesday 7pm central/8pm eastern/5pm pacific and the late Wednesday call at 8:15pm central/9:15pm eastern/6:15pm pacific. We only have one Thursday call time at 8pm central/9pm eastern/6pm pacific. The fee for the 8-week support group session is $120. If you're looking for a change in 2019, joining this dynamic support group creates an instant support team behind you! I look forward to working directly with you! For more information, text 580-491-2228 or email: transformation.road@gmail.com\nYesterday's YouPlan teleconference workshop/presentation went very well. Naturally, my brain immediately goes into analytical mode. I should have spent more time on this, I should have remembered that analogy, oh my, I can't believe I forgot to talk about whatever it is... I suppose it's a very natural thing to do. I quickly was able to turn off that noise and just be okay. Some positive words from attendees helped that effort. It doesn't need to be perfect in order to be impactful. And really, that goes for everything along this road. In fact, the pursuit of perfection is more often than not, a barrier to long-term sustainable progress.\nI picked mom up yesterday evening for a trip to our hometown. We enjoyed an Orange Bowl watch party and visit with family. I volunteered to cook--very simple, lean beef tacos. It was fast and easy--and for my food plan, super easy to log in MyFitnessPal. On occasions like that, super-easy go-to type things provide me the additional mental space to focus on the visiting with family and not the food. The Sooners did not fare well against the mighty Crimson Tide. I'm an Oklahoma State Cowboy fan, but still, I was pulling for the Sooners in this one. The Alabama/Oklahoma matchup inspired some good communication back and forth with my Alabama born and raised father--and that was nice, too.\nSimple works for me\nWe arrived back in town really late. I think mom's frequent adventures away from the nursing home is the envy of her neighbors. She mentioned how she's not able to share those experiences at the dining room table, because, \"they don't get to go out very often at all.\" I suggested how she could share with the nursing staff and her family and friends instead. As much as she doesn't necessarily like living there, it was nice to hear her speak in terms of gratitude for the tremendous love and blessings she's able to enjoy.\nI stayed up for a little bit, enjoyed some fruit, some reflection on the day--and finally, some good rest. I slept very well.\nI'm traveling to Oklahoma City with my girlfriend today. Her family is having a late-Christmas gathering and I'm invited. I don't know these people very well, so I'm not going to contact them to inquire about the food they've planned for the event. I'll make sure I have what I need in my man-bag just in case the food choices don't fit the boundaries of my food plan. Kristin has assured me that there will be plenty of good choices. One thing that's in my favor is the fact that I don't mind saying no. If saying yes means sacrificing my food plan boundaries, the answer must always be no. Sharing it here is an accountability measure. I'll bookend the event with a support friend also and that strengthens the accountability factor even more.\nI'm really looking forward to releasing Episode 19 of Transformation Planet tonight. It's my first shorter episode without an interview. I will have a couple of listener messages to share from the Transformation Planet hotline, so that'll be good. If you haven't subscribed--it's free! You can find the Transformation Planet podcast in the App Store for Apple users, Google Play for Android, and just about anywhere you find your favorite podcasts! I received a message the other day from a listener who hadn't ever listened to a podcast. Mine was their first and now they're discovering podcasting! That feels good to help introduce someone to the world of podcasting. Basically, it's on-demand radio shows. We have Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and many other \"on-demand\" choices for movies and TV shows, podcasting uses the same concept for audio programs, except-most podcasts, like mine, are completely free. I hope you enjoy listening!\nFruit plate late. #whatilike #foodplan #dailypractice 6.6oz envy apple & 206g red seedless grapes. pic.twitter.com/TMozZlJpbu\nIf I had kept this diary prior to September 15th, 2008, it would have revealed someone desperate for some kind of life-saving solution.\nOne of the biggest and scariest thoughts I had back then centered around the idea that life will always contain stressful and emotional situations. These things may change in shape and size and with consequences big and small, but they will always be a part of a balanced and normal life.\nFor me, Day 1 was the start of my parallel streams philosophy. I just didn't know what to call it back then.\nI found out what happens when I plug my importance level/resolve back into the ups and downs of life. My lifestream and fundamental elements stream crossed one another, and it didn't take too long for these to tangle in such a way, I felt more lost than ever before--and regained 164 pounds of my initial 275-pound weight loss.\nThe turnaround from relapse/regain had to start with untangling the two streams and then adding additional measures to keep them separate, including more traditional practices in recovery and stronger accountability/support tools.\nDr. Marty Lerner, PhD, one of the world's leading experts on food addiction recovery, foreshadowed this entire experience in his review of Transformation Road, printed on the very first page of the book. He wrote: \"Although incorporating some suggestions that run contrary to some recovered food addicts, Sean's experiences are worth learning about and considering.\"\nI slept in like a champ today. It felt amazing. Yesterday was all about preparing for the time off. I was working until super-late last night, but it was worth the effort!\nI really enjoyed giving extra time and attention to my morning foundational routine today. On workdays, I give myself enough time most of the time, but still--there's a clock ticking and things to get done before I walk to the door and into the day. When my time is free, I can just sit in it--practice it and feel it longer. It makes a tremendous difference!\nMy plan today includes working on my personal projects, maintaining my food plan boundaries, and getting in a trip to the gym. It'll be a productive Friday!\n2019 is days away! Kickstart your new year with My 2-hour YouPlan Workshop! It's set for tomorrow1-3pm Central/2-4pm Eastern/11am-1pm Pacific. This workshop is designed to inspire and help you create your personal plan practice. Presented via conference call line, it's available to anyone, no matter where you are. If you're outside the US, special international call-in numbers are available to avoid international rates. Bring a pen, paper, and a phone charger! The fee is $25.00 US.

It shows me how if I make it important, I can do it. This isn't something new, but it's certainly something I find easy to ignore or forget. I know how it helps me. I know how I feel great about doing it. I know how important it is to my overall practice. But as I've learned along this road, knowing doesn't make a difference. It isn't the knowing, it's the doing. It reminds me of what my friend Jordan Burgess said on an episode of my podcast Transformation Planet, \"The words \"I know\" almost killed me.\"\nI'll make a similar challenge important again this week.\nThe two-hour \"New Year-New You Plan\" teleconference workshop is set for this Saturday afternoon. Here are a few words from attendees of the LIVE You Plan Workshop from last March...\nP.B. writes: \"On December 18, 2018, I reached 75 pounds lost!!!!\nJ.T. reached her lifetime goal on WW. This has been a great journey with her by my side for encouragement and a sounding board. Thank you for coming along with me.\nWe both attended Sean Anderson\u2019s workshop in March of 2018. He really said things that clicked in our minds and hearts to help make us a success. Thank you, Sean.\nI have a long way to get to my goal but I will keep at a healthier me every day.\"\nJ.A. writes: \"I've worn Santa's suit in Dec. for the last 35 years. Last year, I just barely squeezed into it. This year it went on easily. Thanks to the \"You Plan\" for pointing me in the right direction, I'm 67 pounds healthier & headed in the right direction. HO,HO,HO!!! & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!\"\nThis two-hour workshop presentation on Saturday from 1-3pm Central/2-4pm Eastern/11am-1pm Pacific will feature the same perspectives, challenges, and activities as the live workshop. It's designed to inspire and help you formulate a personal plan practice of your own. This workshop/seminar will be presented via conference call line--making it available to anyone and everyone, no matter where you're located. This event is also available if you're in another country--with special call-in numbers and access codes for your country (avoiding international rates). The fee is $25.00 US. If you're interested in registering for this two-hour event, simply send a Text message with your email address to 580-491-2228 or email: transformation.road@gmail.com. Upon receipt of your text or email, I'll send you the secure PayPal registration, then you'll receive the conference line number and access code for the presentation.\nFormer attendees of the live in-person version and current Sean's Support Group members are invited free of charge.\nChristmas 2018 was a wonderful day in several ways. I exercised at the gym twice yesterday--once in the morning and then again last night after the festivities. I must explain because you know that's not like me. I'm in an exercise accountability challenge this week with Kristin and the support group I facilitate. I pledged to exercise a minimum of 30 minutes four times this week. If I don't meet the challenge, I must dress up in OU Sooner clothing and walk into Walmart singing Boomer Sooner. As a lifelong Oklahoma State Cowboy fan, this cannot happen!! It's a fun challenge and it's helping me get back into the groove of going. I think it's doing the same for Kristin. If she doesn't meet her pledge, she's got to go to Walmart in PJ's, no makeup, and perhaps rollers in her hair--and if you knew her, you'd know, that would be a nightmare for her.\nI got in the Christmas Day 5k, just in two parts. It worked well!\nKristin stopped by yesterday morning for breakfast and our small gift exchange. She's essentially on the same food plan as me--maybe a few differences in our trigger lists, but for the most part, it's almost identical, which makes it easy because I simply prepared two identical plates. I got a new shirt!\nAnd of course, we did a Christmas morning selfie. It wasn't long before she was on her way to her family thing and I was back to preparing for mine.\nNoah and Raegan!\nMaking the loved ones around me the star of the show (instead of the food) was made much easier with grandkids all around!\nI love this photo of Noah!\nMy daughter Courtney and Phoebe!\nMom had a great time, too!\nMy oldest, Amber and little Raegan\nMy trusty digital food scale was with me!\nOne plate-no seconds-no refined sugar-no leftovers-That was the plan!\nI have more pics but I'm out of time! It was a beautiful day! Now it's back to work! I need another day or two! I'll get a few more days off soon.\nMy goodness gracious, the rush yesterday was insane and it really got me rethinking my last minute strategy, I mean--habit. If I call it a strategy it sounds like I meant to do it. It wore me plumb out. If that was a strategy, I need a new strategy!\nI took mom back to her place after our Christmas Eve family gathering last night, went straight home and collapsed! I was so tired! I'm up early this morning, cooking, in preparation for today's family Christmas dinner.\nOne of the precious gifts last night was sitting back and watching Noah's excitement. That little guy reminds me so much of me. The other three grandkids are still young enough, they're not quite sure what to think of it all--but Noah, he knows exactly what's up!\nI spent some extra time focusing on my gratitude list this morning. It was a wonderful way to start Christmas morning.\nI'm keeping this edition short today. In between cooking and getting ready for the get-together later today, I plan on some Christmas morning exercise. My food plan is set for today. I'm committed to honoring the boundaries that help keep me well. I look forward to sharing some pictures from today's gathering in tomorrow morning's edition!\nThe hustle and bustle of the season were on full display yesterday. Wait, what is \"bustle,\" anyway? Does it mean anything? Or do we just use it because it rhymes with hustle? Mom and I made it to the store last night and oh my, it was busy, as expected. I have another solo trip to make this morning--plus several stops at other places. My last minute Christmas hustle and bustle has become somewhat of a tradition. If I did it any differently, it might alarm those close to me. What's the deal with Sean? He's all calm and relaxed on Christmas Eve, this isn't like him!! Isn't it interesting how we develop certain patterns that, although they're not helping us, they become familiar--and in that, there's a measure of comfort?\nBreaking out of old patterns and developing new patterns is essentially what this daily practice thing is about. If we approach the new patterns in a way that is doable--in a way that promotes consistency, then perhaps the new patterns have a chance to become comfortable, too.\nTwo things, besides Christmas, that I'm excited about this morning: My upcoming \"New Year-New YouPlan\" Two-hour Teleconference Workshop is set for this Saturday, December 29th from 1-3pm Central/2-4pm Eastern/11am-1pm Pacific/12-2pm Mountain. This inspiring and transformational two hours will offer perspectives and practical ideas designed to help you start 2019 with fresh enthusiasm for your daily plan. Signing up is easy. Text your email address to 580-491-2228 or send an email to: transformation.road@gmail.com The fee is $25. Upon receipt of your text or email, I'll send a secure PayPal invoice that can be handled with any card or PayPal account. Once you're registered, I'll forward you the call-in number and access code! Have a phone charger ready!\nThe other thing... I released episode 18 of my podcast Transformation Planet! Here's the episode description:\nIn this episode, I release an episode! This podcast isn't dead, yay! In this one, I discuss some wonderful advice I've received for Transformation Planet. Have I over-complicated the process of producing this podcast? Uh, maybe. Okay, yes--yes I have. No more over-complicating. Simple works. I also talk Christmas and about the perspectives I must use if I'm to make it through without compulsively overeating. I'm also including a replay of my interview with Dr. Marty Lerner. Dr. Lerner's experience with eating disorders started long before he became known for his research and published articles. He shares his personal story with disordered eating behaviors in this episode. He also shares how a research project using ice cream forever changed the direction of his career. In the decades since, he's been featured on numerous national television and radio shows including The NPR Report, 20/20, ABC's Nightline and Discovery Health. Dr. Lerner's research has been published in many different professional publications and featured in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, USA Today and several newspapers and national magazines. He is the CEO of Milestones In Recovery Eating Disorder Treatment Center in Florida.\nAs I mentioned above, today includes some last minute hustle and bustle--and a nice get-together with family for a gift exchange and finger foods this evening. I'll make sure to have planned and packed what I need for my fingers.\nHonoring my daily plan practice isn't a barrier to enjoyment like the addict part of my brain would like me to believe. It's the opposite. Honoring the boundaries that help keep me well allows me to be present for the loved ones around me. It allows me to notice things I wouldn't and couldn't if I were \"in the food.\" In this noticing, I'm able to identify so many more things worthy of gratitude.\nWe'll congregate again tomorrow for Christmas dinner. 'Tis the season, my friend--and I hope you're having a warm and wonderful Christmastime.\nI've heard from a few people over the last twenty-four hours who have offered tremendous support and perspective on last week's happenings that inspired yesterday's blog post. I'm grateful.\nWe all have days and sometimes weeks where things seem out of sync, I mean, that's life right? We have good days and not so good days. The thing that made it exceptionally difficult for me was experiencing two things in the same week--and both of them challenging who I think I am; my identity. Being good at standup and being an excellent broadcaster are not the only things I think I am--they're just two of the many elements. If I listed the core elements of me--those two would be on the list. Both events from last week challenged those two things. Anyway--that's the last of me covering this. I still believe those things are true, I just had a couple of bad days. I'm fine--and most importantly, I've learned some tremendous lessons through the experiences.\nSpecial announcement: I'm offering a two-hour \"New Year-New YouPlan\" Workshop/Seminar Saturday, December 29th from 1-3pm Central/2-4pm Eastern/11am-1pm Pacific/12-2pm Mountain. The perspectives and concepts presented during this special event are designed to inspire and help you formulate a personal plan practice of your own. This workshop/seminar will be presented via conference call line--making it available to anyone and everyone, no matter where you're located. This event is also available if you're in another country--with special call-in numbers and access codes for your country (avoiding international rates). The New Year-New YouPlan Workshop is similar to the LIVE workshop I presented in March. The fee is $25.00 US. If you're interested in registering for this two-hour event, simply send a Text message with your email address to 580-491-2228 or email: transformation.road@gmail.com. Upon receipt of your text or email, I'll send you the secure PayPal registration, then you'll receive the conference line number and access code for the presentation.\nI'm releasing a new episode of my podcast later today/this evening. If you're a subscriber, it should show up in your podcast feed! If you're not a subscriber, you can find Transformation Planet in Apple podcasts, Google Play, or wherever you find your favorite podcasts.\nAlso--I'd love you to subscribe to my podcast Transformation Planet! You can find it in Apple Podcasts, in the Google Play store for android, and listed wherever you find your favorite podcasts! If you haven't listened before, you'll find 17 \"new\" episodes waiting for you! More episodes coming soon!\nFeelings. Oh my--they come and go, huh? Sometimes the feelings are created by real circumstance, other times they're created by perception; literally manifesting out of our imaginations. The worst is when the feelings combine both--and that's when working through it becomes a challenge in deciding between what is real versus what's imagined. What is true?\nFeelings are often complicated because a big part of their makeup comes from the experiences and patterns that have shaped us. Another part, in my humble opinion, comes from unmet expectations. If our circumstance challenges our core beliefs of who we are; our identity; the expectations of self--watch out because disappointment and negative head chatter will quickly follow. The last couple of days have presented enormous challenges for me in this department.\nHere's the thing: I've avoided feelings the majority of my life. Instead of feeling them, I'd quickly retreat into the food. For me, it was the quickest and \"safest\" escape route. The attempt to quickly change how I felt in any particular circumstance gave the illusion of \"all better,\" but in reality, the issues, circumstances, and feelings still existed--they were just being cataloged for future reference, waiting for the spotlight to bring them center stage once more so the cycle of retreat and eat could continue over and over again.\nRecognizing the pattern doesn't fix it because it isn't what we know, it's what we do. By the grace of God, I haven't stuffed these feelings of late with food. I've thought about it and that scares the hell out of me, but I haven't. And in that place---uhg, that place where the feelings are raw and real, I have the often unpleasant task of unpacking it all, sorting through them, and asking, \"what is true?\"\nSo what's the deal? I can't disclose specific details but suffice to say, the broadcast Thursday night didn't meet my personal expectation of broadcast excellence. Since it didn't--and it didn't on a public stage, it also attracted harsh criticism throughout social media--things I haven't and will not read were written (because people have told me so) and okay, fine--that's the nature of the beast, right? The important thing is, lessons were learned and procedures and plans are either in place or will be developed to prevent the same results moving forward.\nIf I react to life, I'll eat. That pattern is deeply ingrained. In that reactive pattern, life happens, feelings are felt, food is consumed, those particular feelings take a hike for a little while replaced with more negative feelings created by the reactions--like a shampoo bottle instructions, rinse and repeat, right?\nIf I act on life, I have a dramatically increased chance of making it through without stuffing the emotions with excess food. Two important things are proven and learned in this process of \"acting instead of reacting:\" Number one, there are options. And number two, feelings change and pass. If I'm acting instead of reacting, and in that process, actually feeling the feelings and working them through, then they pass with a measure of understanding and compassion instead of simply being filed away for future reference.\nI've made my morning routine of prayer, meditation, and positive visualizations very important, I've stayed in contact with good support, I've kept the boundaries of my food plan in place--and all the while, I've been sorting through how I feel about it all. Those are the actions helping keep me well. Instead of the feelings being set aside, the deeply ingrained and natural-to-me reactions have been set aside. This acting instead of reacting thing interrupts the pattern.\nAfter a long Friday that started at 6am and ended at 6pm, including two location broadcasts, I made my way to mom's place for a good visit. Mom broke a tooth and we're waiting for an appointment with the dentist to get her fixed up--in the meantime, her nurses are helping her manage the pain its created. Otherwise, she was in good spirits. It was a really nice visit.\nAfter the visit, I headed home for a scheduled mentoring/coaching session with a one on one client of mine followed by dinner out with my girlfriend, Kristin. Kristin is a therapist--not my therapist, but a therapist by profession. Although, she has been known to ask me some compelling questions! We'll call those things food for thought--better than food for food, right? Anyway-- we enjoyed a good on-plan dinner before calling it a night. I was exhausted and dropping in bed early for some good rest was just what I needed.\nBy the way-- for friends and family who are like, what girlfriend?--Wait, when did this happen? Please do not take it personally because I haven't sought your advice and counsel. I've learned the hard way to keep certain elements of my life largely private. It's not about hiding it, when it comes to girlfriend issues, for me, it's simply about living and learning--and experiencing things without judgment, counsel, advice, or anything that interrupts or influences my path. Of course, this is the opposite approach from where my daily practice and recovery is centered. My daughters, both of them, bottom line it for me-- \"Dad, be careful and be happy, that's what matters.\"\nAs this busy week draws to an end, I'm filled with anxiety because I'm so far behind on sending some things in the mail. At this point, I must take a deep breath--do what I can and accept. I have all day tomorrow to finish what I need to finish. Things will be late--but better late than never. I'd rather put some thought and attention into it instead of rushing, anyway.\nI'm glad yesterday is over. My goodness. I'll spare details--but let's just say, it was stressful. A lot to be learned from yesterday as far as work-related issues go.\nI worked late last night before coming home and preparing a late dinner. After the long day and the events of it, I needed to relax, eat my meal, and laugh. I watched the first half of Ellen's new standup special on Netflix before it was time to turn in for the night.\nToday includes two location broadcasts--one early and one late this afternoon. After that, I'll be off until next Wednesday--I'm so glad!\nI ran into a listener yesterday who complimented me on my \"dieting.\" I'm always grateful for words of encouragement and compliments. I don't go into detail about how dieting never worked for me. It's too deep of a conversation and it goes against the perception of most. I simply say, \"thank you\"--and I might add, \"It's a daily practice, for sure.\" But that's about it. However, on this blog, I can go deeper...\nAnother cut--is extending love, self-compassion, and a healing level of forgiveness to ourselves for where this road has led us--and all of the things we did or didn't do along the way. The struggles and successes have a common denominator: They're all opportunities to learn. That's it.\nWhat went well? What didn't go well? It's a study every single day. It's not good or bad. It's not shameful or admirable--it's just an opportunity to learn how to proceed in a groove that fits us well and keeps us well.\nIt was two years ago today when I picked mom up from the hospital and moved her up here in order for her to get the care she needed while being close to me. The care she's received in this time has absolutely, literally, saved her life. It's interesting to me how mom forgets a lot of things but she remembers this date. It was a major turning point for her and me.\nYesterday stayed busy as expected. This is the busiest time of year for broadcasting and it isn't finished. It's taught me some things about staying focused and working through to the finish. The challenge has involved compartmentalizing tasks and staying on point with a thing. For a serial multitasker like me, this is a different approach. Now I'm contemplating ways I can apply this in other areas of my life!\nShort one today. My morning foundational routine is finished, food is planned, packed, and ready--and today is poised to be a good one. It'll be a long day. Tonight includes a special broadcast at the studios, our biggest broadcast of the year, for the big Santa Buck Giveaway. It's a promotion with the chamber of commerce involving thousands of dollars worth of prizes and a very precise, to the minute, broadcast schedule. It can be very stressful, but we're prepared and ready for the challenge. Dinner will happen for me after the broadcast.\nThe party at the studio turned out really well yesterday. I made fresh guacamole and sliced a couple of big juicy ambrosia apples. It was perfect. I received a Starbucks gift card in the exchange, then later in the day, received another from a friend! I'm set on coffee for a while!\nMy contribution to the buffet line\nI think sometimes it's very easy for someone to look at what I do and how I'm maintaining my plan and get the impression that it's somehow easy for me. It isn't. I think it's also easy for someone to forget the nearly two decades of struggle near, at, or above 500 pounds... it's certainly not easy for me to forget. The failed attempts, time and time again--sabotaging myself over and over--lose, gain, lose, gain--on plan, off plan--and so on...for nearly two decades. When I started writing this blog over ten years ago, I started turning those nearly two decades into my own personal study of what worked and mostly what didn't. Suddenly, what I perceived to be a collection of worthless past failures became very valuable lessons.\nThe things I do each day are not for show. The logging, the accountability tweets, the strong connections to giving and receiving support, the writing of this blog, the production of my podcast, the planning, preparing, cooking, weighing and measuring everything, the daily prayer, and meditation--these things and more are my rails of support.\nI'm lacking in every other area. Rest, exercise, spiritual--every other area needs increased attention. That's not a knock on me--it's simply a reminder of the practice needed each day. And I know--if I continue lacking in these other areas, it'll eventually infect the strongest areas of my personal plan.\nThis here thing isn't easy. It might come off that way with day after day of \"hey--today was great!\" But trust, I work at it each day. I focus. I learn. I take extraordinary care. I make sure to enjoy the process. I make it important to be kind to me along the way.\nAbove all, I understand that this is never a given. It's never automatic. And it's never guaranteed. I start fresh each day and try to add just one more day to this practice.\nWe were short staffed yesterday--and that, combined with a couple other extra commitments I'm contracted for with the school district, created a fairly busy day. However, it was very focused, despite waking up way too early yesterday morning. I felt good. I had my list and I worked it one by one. Some days call for a sharper focus, right? It's like, okay--if this (the list) is going to get done, I need to stay focused and actively working.\nToday we're having our company Secret Santa and holiday lunch get-together thingy. I'm making guacamole. I'm also bringing apple slices. Some keys for me at an event like this is, number one, knowing the boundaries of my food plan--and honoring those--and two, making sure what I bring are things I can easily fit into my food plan. For added accountability and support, I'll bookend text my plan for the event to a close support contact, too. That connection always helps when the event calls for all sorts of off-plan things on the table.\nThis ambrosia apple was probably the largest I've encountered! 10.5oz... will last me all morning and maybe be part of lunch, later. Bigger apple doesn't always mean a better apple- but this one is great! Always a gamble in the produce section! #dailypractice #foodplan pic.twitter.com/i3ERhTd2lN\nYesterday's #foodplan #threemeals #dailypractice #whatilike pic.twitter.com/wQTk2xMeiy\nDecember 17th, 2018 Before You Decide To Give Up, Please Read This\nI'm so glad this weekend and the illness thing is behind me. I'm ready to start this week in a wonderful way. I woke up too early this morning and couldn't go back to sleep. Instead of forcing the issue, I decided to jump up and start early. Most certainly an afternoon nap will be part of this day--I certainly hope so because I'll likely need it after this 3:15am start. Yesterday went very well. Mom and I enjoyed our weekly evening out for dinner, Christmas lights, and a store run. Mom picked up a nice little Christmas tree to brighten her place. It looks wonderful--perfect size for her space.\nI spent some time on the phone with a support friend last night. It was a tough call. She was done. The call was to inform me that she had reached the end of struggling, deciding rather, to simply lean into the compulsions, release any semblance of a plan, and just accept whatever consequences lay ahead.\nThere's peace in acceptance.\nI thanked her for calling me. I reminded her that I thought the world of her and I wanted her to know that struggle wasn't any kind of moral failure. There's no judgment or shame, ever, from me. I've been there, I know. I also know that the biggest amount of judgment and shame comes from within our own heads, not anyone else. I reminded her that she could always keep me as a support contact moving forward. And with that, I thanked her again for calling me and I wished her a good night's rest.\nThere was a short pause--a silence on the line before, \"do you want to talk me out of it or give me some advice on how to not do this?\" I don't remember my exact words, but essentially it was, no, I'm honoring where you are and your decision. If you're telling me you're done, then words from me to the contrary aren't likely to help. I don't have any magic words. I'm not an expert, a therapist, a doctor, or anything like that--I only have my very imperfect experiences along this road. Along the way, I've learned that it doesn't matter how much I want it for someone else--it's no match; never enough to compete with what's happening inside someone else's head if they're at the point of saying, I'm done.\nIt's a process. Each and every one of us go through our own unique process. Sometimes it's best to get out of the way. What I mean is this-- Some of my greatest periods of struggle are the times I'm most grateful for along this road. I'm not saying it's desirable. I'm simply saying those experiences, as horrible as they were at times, were showing me the things I needed in order to move forward in a positive way.\n\"You're really not done, are you?\" There was another pause and then, \"No, I'm just tired of fighting.\"\nAre you willing to create a plan with the structure and elements that support you in a way that might just decrease those feelings of struggle? Are you willing to suspend your personal expectation of perfection--those personal preconceived notions of what \"on plan\" means? Are you willing to start simple? Are you willing to be kind and gentle to yourself? I mean really, how can we move forward if we're constantly pummeling ourselves with a barrage of negative energy?\nCreate a gratitude list. When it gets dark it's really hard to see the good things and blessings we have right in front of us. It's as if they disappear completely. A written list might help keep these things visible. Write a personal journal entry of your \"why.\" Why is this important to you? Create a list of consequences in both directions--use your imagination, visualize the road ahead and commit it to paper.\nShe isn't giving up. I'm not giving up. And I hope you're not giving up, either. I believe in her. I believe in you. I believe in me. Just don't check out. Don't give up.\nThat's truly the most important thing.\nIt's hard to believe how far down I felt at the worst points along the way. A good friend who has been there, wouldn't let me go; wouldn't let me release what little hope I had left. I was giving up every day. I felt stuck. I felt trapped.\nI felt like my choices were not my own, as if possessed. I was scared. I isolated. I felt alone like nobody could possibly understand the struggle. I was wrong. Plenty of people understand the struggle. Maybe you understand exactly what I'm writing about. Don't give up.\nAt this point, a food and exercise plan isn't the most immediate thing needed. The most immediate thing needed is someone to tell you, you're not alone--and this isn't the end. There's hope. And a better day may not be today, tomorrow or next week. But a better day is coming for you if, you don't give up. You're not alone. This isn't the end.\nI spend plenty of time exploring thoughts of thanks and gratitude for the incredible blessings this turnaround from relapse/regain has become. I've often wondered why my friend, Gerri Helms, didn't get exhausted and give up on me back there, not too long ago. Now I know why. She knew I wasn't really done. She's been there, too. And she knows the truth. It isn't hopeless. She believed in me when I no longer believed in myself and she convinced me to give it another look, or several.\nI'm not special. What I've done and what I'm doing isn't unique. It's been done by countless people before me. It's a practice, not perfection.\nIt's about progress, not perfection. It's about how you feel, not a number. It's about you and for you, not about or for anyone else. It's about living, not dying. It's about dreaming, not dreading. It's about freedom, not imprisonment. It's about opening your mind to the possibilities, not closing it to the changes. It's about acceptance, not rejection. It's about nourishing, not depriving. It's about a broadly consistent importance level, not short bursts of narrow focus. It's about wanting, not forcing. It's about doing your best, not trying to do another's best. It's about today, not tomorrow, or next week or the first of the month or January 1st. It's about committing to consistency with all your heart and holding on tight, not a halfhearted commitment easily released with the slightest breeze. It's about you deserving better because you do. It's about you being important because you are important.\nI believe we each have it inside us. It's there, just waiting until you're ready to tap its blessings. It's in you, too. Don't give up.\nYesterday: I maintained the integrity of my reduced calorie budget (Ate more than yesterday but still wasn't eating too much because of illness), I remained refined sugar-free, I exceeded my daily water goal, and I stayed well connected with exceptional support.\nI'm coming out of the food poisoning situation fairly well. I kept my food intake really low again yesterday just to be safe. I received the stern MFP warning about eating too little as I saved yesterday's logging. MFP needs a little box you check when you're sick.\nLast night's stand-up performance was not good. A lot of things came together to make it the opposite of what it was two years ago and of course, my brain has checked through them all. Two years ago was an hour-plus killing from start to finish, similar to the year before that--but this, oh my, my third time back, was not the same. It's okay. It happens. It didn't have very much to do with me not being well, that was the least of the circumstances. But I own it. Bottom line, I didn't connect with the audience as in years before--and that's on me. I used the same strategy in prepping fresh material as I did in years past--and in hindsight, I can see where a completely different approach was needed. We learn, right?\nI slept in very well today. I needed the rest. I'm finally feeling back to normal.\nMy plan today is to pretty much resume my normal food plan schedule.\nOne very cool thing that happened last night...\nAs I was pacing in the hallway before my set, I was approached by a man who was very fit, built--and you could tell, he takes extraordinary care of himself. He told me that my story had inspired him a while back to start making changes. He chose change before changes chose him! We had never connected personally--I didn't know him before last night. I didn't expect that at all. It was truly a blessing to me. I'm so grateful for experiences like this.\nYesterday: I maintained the integrity of my reduced calorie budget (wasn't eating too much because of illness), I remained refined sugar-free, I exceeded my daily water goal by six cups, and I stayed well connected with exceptional support.\nYesterday was rough. I'm usually really good at masking how I feel while I'm on the air but I just couldn't yesterday. I sounded sick and I was sick. Food poisoning is brutal--thank goodness it's temporary. Lesson learned: No more saving diced onions for cooking later. I'm 99.9% certain the onions in my sweet potato side dish the other night was the culprit. I had to get through my show, then a location broadcast from a small car dealer before being able to make it home to rest.\nI made extra water a priority yesterday. I didn't eat much because I just didn't feel like eating. I made myself eat some lunch because through the cruddiness, I was also hungry. Then I took a nap for four hours. My goodness, that stuff put me down.\nThe good news is, I'm feeling much better today. And that's a great thing because I have a location broadcast this morning and a big standup set tonight at a large corporate private party. The show must go on!!\nMyFitnessPal doesn't like it when you try to save a day with a super low-calorie count. I ended yesterday under 700 calories for obvious reasons. Haven't seen this message in a long time:\nOkay, MFP, relax!! I know! It's one day! I was sick!! I'm still taking it easy on the food today. I don't need anything upsetting my recovery before tonight's big performance.\nAlso--I'd love you to subscribe to my podcast Transformation Planet! You can find it in Apple Podcasts, in the Google Play store for android, and listed wherever you find your favorite podcasts! If you haven't listened before, you'll find 17 \"new\" episodes waiting for you! More new-new episodes coming soon!\nI think I gave myself food poisoning. I became very sick just after 2am, laid back down after--sipping water. then woke at 4:30 with a very pronounced feeling, like I could throw-up again, anytime. My dinner was fairly simple--petite sirloin with a side of pan prepared sweet potatoes, red onion, and orange bell pepper. The dinner tweet is below. I used leftover raw veggies that were in the fridge for the side dish, so I don't know. They looked fine. I think this is food poisoning because I don't think I'm running a fever. I can't find my thermometer to confirm.\nThis is not a day I can afford to be sick. I'm going to try to go to work. If this persists, I won't have a choice and alternative arrangments will be required for the rest of day.\nI'm a meat and potatoes kind of guy. 9oz petite sirloin, 172g sweet potato pan prepared with 40g red onion, 90g orange bell pepper, and approx.5sec olive oil cooking spray. #foodplan #whatilike #coldnightgrilling #dailypractice pic.twitter.com/jCDL6QD0s5\nGood morning! Thank you for coming to these pages each day and reading this daily diary of happenings, thoughts, and ideas. I'm grateful. I hope that every now and then something I've experienced and shared here resonates deeply for you.\nYesterday was a good day and today is set to hopefully be another. I'm running behind this morning, so I'll keep this short. I've completed my morning routine, my breakfast items are planned and packed, lunch things are at the studio, and I have a list of things to make important today. I slept well, so today's practice is in a position to be relatively \"in sync.\"\nThe following excerpt with a couple of 2018 edits was originally written almost four years ago.\nGetting out of sync can quickly create irrational fears within me. It's certainly an area I need to further analyze and understand because life happens--out of sync can happen. I suppose the determining factor for necessary concern is if the interruption is intentional or circumstantial. In the case of last week, it was certainly circumstantial.\nIt's critically important to differentiate between the two and quickly because the negative emotions born from an improper perspective have the potential to turn choices intentionally negative, fast. It didn't come to this for me last week because I reached out for support, directly with support buddies--and indirectly through writing in this blog.\nThe most interesting elements along this road to me, are the psychological/mental/emotional parts. These have the ability to swing in both directions depending on how they're used. It makes the difference between consistency and chaos.\nThe food and exercise plans are fundamentals for success, but in my opinion aren't necessarily the most critical elements. Make no mistake, learning the importance of your personal boundaries (like my abstinence from sugar) quickly become monumental difference makers. In my opinion, the parts between our ears determine our trajectory, every time. This is why many of us can experience incredible success doing different plans, or 'what works for us,' and still find so much in common along the way.\nThe greatest challenge is a matter of faith. Believing in yourself enough to ignite that certain something within you that says, \"I'm doing this. I don't have all the answers, I don't know how necessarily, but I'm doing it and I'll figure it out what works for me along the way.\" That takes big faith and courage. Faith in a power greater than yourself is critically important. \"Believing in yourself enough\" shouldn't be confused with going it alone. None of us go it alone, for very long, at least. It's more about deciding once and for all, you're worth the effort this requires.\nThis is especially difficult for anyone who must have all the answers before they start. Some of the smartest people I know have the hardest time getting started. I personally know of a doctor who is well over 400 pounds. A doctor! I use this, not in a judgmental way, but simply as an example to illustrate how it's not about intelligence.\nIt doesn't matter what we know. What matters is what we do.\nIt's about simplifying your elements, your fundamentals--setting up some kind of support and accountability system and most importantly, keeping an open mind along the way. Incredibly intelligent people sometimes have a hard time simplifying. If you're struggling, is it a compliment to your intelligence? It could be! Keep it simple, my friend.\nThe three-hour location broadcast yesterday at the grand opening of a new convenience store/restaurant went well. My plan was very simple: Enjoy coffee during and wait for a good on-plan meal after the broadcast. This was the plan I bookended with a support friend and that helped to strengthen my resolve. However...\nOh my goodness, the first, \"You gotta try this\" came within minutes of my arrival--and the offers of free food continued coming from a couple different home-office type people with this client. I totally get it. I'm the one on the air describing their offerings--and these food items are premium in every way, I mean--this is a company that operates their own test kitchens, so they're serious about quality. I'll spare you the food-porn descriptions, but trust, everything was over-the-top. It's only natural for them to suggest I sample several things. I had a couple of colleagues with me and they were ordering things, so that helped. I deflected the offers until the offers stopped coming while delivering the kind of broadcast they wanted for the grand opening event. It worked out well. I'm grateful. To be fair, I could have selected some things for a make-shift on-plan lunch--certainly. But in that environment, honestly, I'd rather focus on my job and focus on lunch, later. It felt good to compose and send that follow-up bookend support text after the event.\nI'm ready for a good Wednesday. It'll be a busy production day with a couple clients scheduled for in-studio voice work immediately after my morning show. I'm planned, packed, and prepared in order to have what I need, when I need, where I need...yep, the Three P's and Three W's are checked and ready for today.",

        "raw_content": "The Olympics and Public Health Considerations\nThe Olympic games, or any large-scale mass assembly, represent substantial challenges for the entire health sector of host countries. Due to its immense size, duration, world-wide contributions, and media attention, the Olympics require an extraordinarily high level of public health preparation. Host countries are urged to strengthen and increase the capacity of their health systems, while also having measures in place to be able to reduce the amount of pollutants that come with the increase in people and transportation needs to be able to deal with a very wide range of health problems and emergencies, either natural or man-made. .\nMajor anticipated health risks may include illnesses related to heat or cold, food-borne or water-borne illness, communicable diseases and accidents and other types of injuries. International travel itself involves risk since communicable diseases that are not common to a venue might be imported to that location. The millions of meals served to athletes, staff and visitors highlight the opportunity for food-borne disease outbreaks. Athletes and spectators must feel safe and protected. This means they should be able to assume high standards of hygiene for food, water, lodging and recreational areas. They should also be able to assume that high-quality and easily accessible health services will be there when they might need them. .\nFinally, they should feel reassured that the country has the capacity to deal with public health or health care emergencies caused by either natural or man-made events. Further, the Olympic games are a huge target due to the large amounts of people and mass media coverage. The deliberate use of explosives, biological and chemical agents or radio nuclear material would make the task of public health readiness remarkably challenging for any country, large or small. The Munich massacre was an attack during the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, West Germany on eleven members of the Israeli Olympic team, who were taken hostage and eventually killed, along with a German police officer, by the Palestinian group Black September (Munich.\nEssays Related to The Olympics and Public Health Considerations\n1.

This rare and old whisky has been inspired by Charles\u2019 passion, vision and achievements. Further details of this release will be announced later this year.\nHis contribution to the worldwide drinks trade is being marked at special memorial services held in New York on February 18 and his home town of Glasgow in Scotland on February 21.\nAlong with his brother Sandy, Charles, or Charlie as he was known, turned a small, family-run company into one of the world\u2019s leading producers of Scotch whiskies including Glenfiddich and Grant\u2019s.\nIn a tribute to the man, the company says he was known as a large personality to his family and friends, \u201cCharles\u2019 warmth and charm as well as his perceptiveness and long-term vision led William Grant & Sons to the international recognition it enjoys today.\n\u201cCharles\u2019s passion and innovative nature led him to launch Glenfiddich internationally which marked the beginning of the single malt category as we know it today. He pushed the global development of William Grant & Sons\u2019 brands while spearheading the acquisition of an American import house, the first of its kind in the industry, moving control of distribution and sale into company hands,\u201d says the tribute.\nGrant\u2019s chief executive, Stella David, said: \u201cCharlie brought an incredible energy to his life\u2019s work. When one looks at the way he always maintained the integrity of our Scotch whiskies while at the same time innovating new brands such as Hendrick\u2019s gin and Reyka vodka, it is easy to see why he was so highly regarded throughout the world.\nThe commemorative services will be a celebration of a long and fruitful life and of a man who contributed so much to the global spirits industry,\u201d she said.\nCharles was said to have played a pivotal role in the global development of Scotch whisky and Glenfiddich, the single malt that he was instrumental in launching.",

        "title": "Reflections on Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission | Mauck & Baker, LLC",
        "raw_content": "On June 4, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed a decision rendered by the Colorado State Human Rights Commission against Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, saying that the state abused his rights by prosecuting him for discriminating against LGBT couples when he refused to create a custom-designed cake for a same-sex wedding. Richard Baker and Noel Sterett of Mauck & Baker, LLC filed an amicus (friend of court) brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in this case on behalf of a number of Christian business organizations whose members face similar issues concerning free exercise of their religious beliefs in the marketplace. Because issues of human sexuality arising out of the aftermath of the sexual revolution from abortion, to gay marriage, to transgender identity and beyond are creating such division in the church and in the wider society, many have asked what the significance and impact are of the Masterpiece Cakeshop case. Mr. Baker gives his perspective on the implications of the case going forward.\nWhat is your opinion of this Colorado case?\nThough we hoped the Supreme Court would have ruled on the compelled free speech and free exercise of religion defenses that Jack Phillips raised, we were pleased to see that the U.S. Supreme Court recognized the double standard that Christians often face in human rights tribunals. We agree with the holding as far as it goes, believing that the manifest hostility shown by the Colorado Human Rights Commission was entirely inappropriate and that its actions justified the reversal of its finding of discrimination.\nWhat do you believe is the extent and reach of the Masterpiece Cakeshop decision?\nActually, the decision is broader than many have said. For many years, the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment has been disfavored. The Masterpiece Cakeshop case, along with several other recent cases, is an important decision, bolstering the protection of the free exercise of religion.\nThe Court\u2019s ruling, 7-2, reversed the Colorado Human Rights Commission\u2019s finding of discrimination against a Denver baker who objected to creating a wedding cake for a gay couple\u2019s wedding on religious grounds. It did so on due process grounds, reasoning that because the proceedings reflected blatant hostility, not only as reflected in comments from commissioners likening the Denver baker to racists and Nazis, but also in the tribunal\u2019s failure to fairly consider the Denver baker\u2019s sincerely held religious views in making its determination. This hostility, the Court found, was clear from its application of different standards in the religious baker\u2019s case to that of similarly situated secular bakers who refused to create cakes with anti-gay marriage messages.\nThe Court\u2019s decision is a win in that it reversed the egregious violations of due process (fairness) at every level of Jack Philipp\u2019s proceedings. And procedural due process \u2013 assuring fairness and respect for all litigants before a tribunal \u2013 is vital. For the impact that a procedural ruling like this could have, think of the Miranda Rights decision and the impact which that procedural due process ruling had on curbing police abuse in forcing confessions to crimes.\nThus, while the Court\u2019s focus on the due process aspect of the case did not resolve the underlying issues raised with regard to whether LGBT public accommodation and anti-discrimination laws \u2018trump\u2019 First Amendment rights of free exercise of religion and free speech, it nevertheless sent a clear message in terms of government hostility toward people of faith and their religious beliefs. Given the rough treatment many religious people have received when brought before human rights tribunals all over the country on charges of LGBT discrimination, this ruling sets an important precedent, that the government must fairly apply the standards used in rendering decisions free of governmental viewpoint discrimination.\nWhat is the key takeaway from the decision, particularly for religious-believing business owners?\nThe facts in every case are important, and in this case, it should always be remembered that Jack Phillips did not refuse to sell to that gay couple a cake. In fact, he offered to sell them anything on his shelves in the store. What he actually refused to do was to lend his creative talents to creating a particular message by designing and decorating a wedding cake with a message that he believed was contrary to the Word of God. That his objections were message-oriented is clear from the fact that he has also refused to create cakes with a number of messages contrary to his understanding of Scripture, including cakes celebrating Halloween, divorce, and even the disparagement of gay persons.\nSo, contrary to what some commentators are saying, the case does not stand for the proposition that religious persons can willy-nilly refuse to sell items in commerce to gay people, thereby shutting them out of the marketplace. Instead, the limited holding in this case reiterated the basic legal concept of fairness, that the government must fairly apply its standards in rendering decisions to both religious and secular litigants alike. In addition, and quite importantly, is that the 7-2 decision makes clear that free exercise rights apply to commercial businesses as well as churches, religious organizations, and religious individuals. Until now, many human rights tribunals and lower courts have denied religious businesses and commercial artists this important defense.\nHow important is the Supreme Court's holding that opposition to same-sex marriage can, in fact, be rooted in sincere religious belief and not necessarily in pure bigotry or animus?\nIt is very important because the Supreme Court has made it clear that the tribunals and courts must respect a conscientious religious person\u2019s objection to same-sex marriage and may not continue to dismiss his or her religious defenses as irrational and per se bigotry. This ruling may help level the playing field for religious persons brought before human rights tribunals for exercise of their sincerely held religious convictions with regard to marriage. This is good news to those religious businesses whose owners sincerely hold religious convictions that may not fall in line with the rapidly changing values in our society. As such, it is a step in the right direction to protecting everyone\u2019s freedom to live within the dictates of his or her conscience.\nWhat will be the next case to reach the Supreme Court, re: the collision between religious liberty and LGBT rights?\nThe underling issue remains: will public accommodation (LGBT non-discrimination) laws trump long-established First Amendment free speech and free exercise rights? The Court will soon be confronted with these issues again if it decides to hear another same-sex wedding case, Arlene\u2019s Flowers Inc. v. Washington, which has facts similar to the Masterpiece Cakeshop case that was just decided. Currently, the Arlene\u2019s Flowers case is pending before the U.S. Supreme Court, having just been distributed for conference on June 7th, 2018. If the Court decides to hear the case, the same issues of government-coerced speech and religious free exercise will be before it once again.\nAs Justice Thomas reflected in his concurrence to the majority opinion in Masterpiece Cakeshop, while the decision did not resolve the issues, it gives religious freedom another day in court to be vindicated.\nThus, the fight for religious freedom is far from over, and we need to keep praying and working actively to protect the religious freedom of those in the marketplace, who for conscience sake, do not want to be compelled to endorse same-sex marriage.\nPosted on Tue, June 12, 2018 by Mauck & Baker\n1.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Interview / Coaches and Management / Lombardi on the Kings\u2019 Players Locking Sutter Out\nLombardi on the Kings\u2019 Players Locking Sutter Out\nMore from Kings GM Dean Lombardi, who met with the media in Los Angeles earlier today\u2026\nOn the New York Post report that claimed the players had locked Darryl Sutter out of the dressing room recently:\nUnfortunately, it\u2019s factually inaccurate\u2026 The timing is wrong, it happened in Tampa \u2013 not last week \u2013 then we won eight in a row\u2026 [Reporter: So, they really barricaded the door shut with trashcans?] I don\u2019t know if it went that far\u2026 this was just brought to my attention yesterday. So, I guess you can say we had a little scuffle in Tampa\u2026 [Reporter: Is that troubling?] No, here\u2019s why. Well, I could look at it and say that\u2019s when we won eight in a row so let\u2019s do this more often. I think, again in terms of what happened, maybe you don\u2019t have to go to that extreme. Theoretically, I have no problem with it, because here\u2019s the thing where this team has to get to \u2013 if you look at what essentially a coaches number one rule is, is to give this team structure and detail. The emotion in terms of getting that emotion to where it needs if we\u2019re going to be a top team, it has to come from within the room. With at times the coach obviously needs to have some ability and essentially a lot of that too in today\u2019s day and age you have to give players individual one-on-one. So we\u2019re even a part of it sometimes, raising the emotion in that room. Obviously one of the problems this year was just that. For whatever reason, we weren\u2019t where we needed to be. Now that said, I don\u2019t know if I like the way it happened, but if you look at great teams, a perfect example is Derek Jeter.\nWhen Joe Torre was ready to blow [up] or something, Jeter would walk in and say, \u2018Whoa, whoa, whoa, I got this one. Stay out, and don\u2019t be losing it.\u2019 You\u2019ve seen this with top players all the time. The players essentially you want in charge of your room, and like I said, maybe the way to do it was, \u2018We don\u2019t need to hear from you now, we\u2019ve got it,\u2019 and go out and get it done. Maybe you don\u2019t have to go to that extreme. But the point is what happens there; that\u2019s what needs to happen. The players need to take over the room emotionally, and if you want to go in there and say, \u2018Coach, stay out, I\u2019ve got this one. We know how to win,\u2019 I have no problem with that. It\u2019s just that maybe again, you don\u2019t want to have to put a garbage can there. But if we\u2019re going to be a top team, your best players have to take over the emotion in your room, and at times that might require them to say, \u2018Coach, I\u2019ve got this one.\u2019 And there\u2019s enough players in that room now who\u2019ve won. The problem you would\u2019ve had before was credibility. If Jeter tells Joe Torre, \u2018I\u2019ve got this one, stay out,\u2019 I better listen, he has frickin\u2019 four championships. Well, there\u2019s guys in there now with two championships. They\u2019re qualified to do that now. They might not have said that four years ago\u2026 But they\u2019re ready for that. They know where they\u2019ve got to be. So the irony is that\u2019s essentially a lot of times what you want to happen \u2013 your players take over your room. \u2018Stay out, coach, I don\u2019t want to hear from you. I don\u2019t want to hear from you, Dean. We\u2019ve got it. Stay out.\u2019 Because they know way more than we do. It\u2019s just as you\u2019re building that up, it\u2019s usually you get more involved when they don\u2019t know how to win, but they\u2019ve been there. That\u2019s the way I look at it. In terms of how it happened \u2013 the trash cans or whatever \u2013 I\u2019m not sure you have to send a message that way. You read about all those great players time and again, the top ones would say, \u2018We\u2019ve got this one,\u2019 and go out and get it done. That\u2019s the key. Now, the irony is this is, like I said, we went out and had one of our best streaks.\nOn whether he has ever been locked out of a dressing room by players:\nNo. I firmly believe, in this day and age, about the importance of constant dialogue with your players. And it isn\u2019t always pretty. There are times when they don\u2019t like what I have to say, either. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s anybody down there who doubts that, in the end, we\u2019re all just trying to make you the best you can be. Sometimes they need some pushing. Don\u2019t give them any ideas, in terms of locking me out!\nOn if he\u2019s talked to Darryl Sutter about the trash can incident:\nI don\u2019t even know how he reacted. He\u2019d probably say \u2018See, I showed you. You really wanted to know.\u2019 Here\u2019s the other thing to this, and I don\u2019t mean to criticize, but you don\u2019t know how hard that was. And I think that really got everybody to the breaking point. I think you had a lot of things coming together ready to explode. I don\u2019t how the players feel, I know how I feel. To be going through that when you know you\u2019re struggling, it\u2019s too bad. Because those people [with EPIX] are just trying to work a camera lens, but you have no idea how difficult that is. Its one thing if you\u2019re on a roll, it\u2019s still hard. But we were clearly not where you need to be, you know it, and then everywhere you go you got that camera. It just builds up in your neck because you know how you feel. You\u2019re worried about this, you\u2019re not doing this, and then were losing. We just lost in Florida and here\u2019s that freakin camera in your face. That was the one thing, everybody says, do it it\u2019s good for this good for that, and most guys, it has worked out. But if you look at the team, I don\u2019t think anybody was going through what we were going through in terms of being the Stanley Cup champions and just clearly nobody being happy, everyone\u2019s grumpy, and now here\u2019s this camera in your face. They were really good guys, and that\u2019s not an excuse. I think it just compounded and we just had a lot more edge to ourselves. So I hope you\u2019re happy with the content.\nOn whom his favorite is to win the cup this season:\nI guess it\u2019s because we played them so freakin hard, St. Louis. Those series we played against them were rough, them and San Jose were the worst two. When we beat them those years, those series were a lot closer. They\u2019ve kind of gotten better, they\u2019ve got Tarasenko and got some skill. Who the hell knows? Did anyone pick Calgary, Vancouver and Winnipeg to be in the playoffs? Winnipeg is physical, that\u2019s a real playoff team. They\u2019re a team that\u2019s built for the playoffs.\nOn if any of the Kings players will go overseas to the IIHF World Championship:\nI was more looking at do I want Martinez and Lewis to end up playing. So if you don\u2019t want them playing then I\u2019d send them. Whatever helps the US and hurts Canada in all for it\nOn if he\u2019s involved with the USA team at all:\nSort of. I can\u2019t say right now, I\u2019m not supposed to. That is a good question though, ask Blakey. It is great for those kids too, to get exposure wearing their colors. But then you\u2019re back to the other question: are they better off getting their rest as the framing to the next level? Probably ask Blakey because then he\u2019s unbiased too.\nOn how the draft strategy changes this season and the possibility of drafting McDavid:\nWe can\u2019t move up that high. (There\u2019s a two percent chance) so your telling me there\u2019s a chance? You really think that picks not going to phoenix? That\u2019s Patrick Ewing all the way buddy. Save that franchise\nOn if he\u2019ll be at the draft lottery:\nNo we don\u2019t have to go to that. We did enough TV shows and crap last year. That freaking thing we had to do at that awards thing, make me stand up there while that jackass is singing that song, and the lights flashing, that is it. I was done. And if I had any idea it was going to be like that, your damn straight you would have never saw it. And then they wonder why the hell I wasn\u2019t there when they were Murph winning the award, I couldn\u2019t fucking take it. I had to get the hell out of there.\nOn if any players need major medical attention this season:\nCertainly nothing like last year. It is hard, not only do they need time to train, but you forget how much they need just to recoup. Every one of them was banged up last year.\nFiled Under: Coaches and Management, HockeyBlog, Interview, Kings, NHL Tagged With: comments, hockey, interview, Kings, Lombardi, Los Angeles, Mayor, MayorsManor, NHL, quote\nLombardi is both smart and articulate. He puts a convincing spin on the Sutter trash can-lockout.\nHe may be right in assuming that it\u2019s simply a positive example of veteran leadership taking charge but it seems like it may go a bit deeper.\nWhen Scotty Bowman was coaching the Red Wings I asked him if it\u2019s true that players start tuning out the coach even if they have a history of success together. His reply was, \u201cYes, it\u2019s true they get tired of hearing the same message from the same coach over and over.\u201d During his Red Wings tenure, Bowman didn\u2019t attend practices regularly, it was Barry Smith who was in charge. Maybe Scotty had other things to do or possibly was limiting his contact with the team to help retain the kind of distance from his players which he was known to advocate.\nSutter has proven to be a good coach but just about everyone gets tired of being yelled at or verbally abused, assuming that is the case with DS and Kings. Even more than Sutter, DL has been the force behind the Kings success. He did a masterful job of bringing in the talent and Sutter has effectively used that talent to produce multiple championships. Locking the coach out of the room is one thing but using trash cans, as well, is kind of an exclamation point by the players for Sutter to shut up!\nWinning does cure a lot of problems in team sports but it will be interesting to see how Sutter\u2019s relationship with the team plays out next season, especially if the Kings struggle a bit out of the gate.\nI didn\u2019t know that about Scotty, but obviously he was an extremely effective coach because he made the Wings a dynasty! Maybe DS needs to take lessons from Scotty\u2019s book? Sutter could bring the same type of dynasty to the Kings, but his management style may be totally different. As I stated in my comments below, you just can\u2019t read Sutter very well. He\u2019s always so stoic! Even when the Kings were winning, you can never tell if he was happy or not. (By the way, I loved Coach Hartley\u2019s ecstatic reaction when they beat the Kings last Thursday! I was happy for him because he deserved to get there\u2026finally! But my point is, to see him so happy made me happy for him.).\nSpeaking of dynasty, is there really such a thing anymore? The NHL has gotten so tough with guys being so much bigger and faster, and with the farm systems, AHL also being more competitive, I really don\u2019t think there is going to be a real dynasty. Having said that, I sure believe that Dean Lombardi is the genius that can bring our Kings a dynasty!\nDynasty may very well be a thing of the past. If the Kings win the draft lottery and obtain the first pick, it might be possible. DL seems to think Phoenix will win it to help save the franchise. Hoping he\u2019s wrong and everything is on the \u201cUp and Up\u201d regarding the lottery. If the Kings don\u2019t win the lottery I\u2019m hoping for Buffalo.\nI really respect Dean! He tells it like it is, and I loved his explanation about Coach being locked out & the trash can incident, comparing this to baseball. These Kings were beat up after the 2014 season, and they had a very short summer, so I can imagine how it was difficult mentally to be up for the new season after such a grueling very long 2013-14 season! I mean, they came back like a freight train post-Olympics & rolled fairly respectably throughout the latter half of the season! I am so grateful for what they did last season, and so proud of them.\nAs for the trash can incident & Coach being locked out of the locker room, I can imagine how the players felt, but you have to wonder if Coach Sutter gets on them after these kinds of losses like Florida in February. Sutter is very hard to read (personality wise), so he could be a total tyrant behind the scenes (who knows?). But I have to say that after that Panther loss in February, they sure steam-rolled through several elite teams winning EIGHT in a row!! So that must have helped to motivate themselves!\nAll in all, I\u2019m disappointed that the Kings did not make the playoffs because if they\u2019re going to be a \u201cdynasty\u201d team, at least they should make it into the playoffs especially after winning the Cup (to try to defend the Cup). But like Dean said, if they were beat up still all season long (from last season), then they should get a reprieve for a season.\nAs for Coach Sutter, if he did get on the boys for the losses, he should have eased up simply based on the fact that these same boys won 2 cups in 3 years, which is something not a lot of teams can say. Maybe if he wasn\u2019t so hard on them, they would have found their inner-selves to win. Maybe Sutter was the block to their \u201cmental\u201d state this year, and players were rebelling or just too tired to care. Either way, I\u2019m totally with the team and can\u2019t wait for next year.\nIf Coach Sutter leaves, I would love to see John Stevens take over! He seems to be a supportive, well-spoken, effective manager.\nDustin Brown on Fixing the Kings, Pushing Back on Sutter says:\n[\u2026] Lombardi\u2019s saying he was okay with what happened, and that he wants guys to take control of the [\u2026]\nKyle Clifford \u2013 \u2018This isn\u2019t just a tight team, it\u2019s a tight organization\u2019 says:\n[\u2026] the players locking coach Darryl Sutter out of the room in Tampa [\u2026]\nBrown, Kopitar, Sutter on Life Without Stoll and Williams says:\n[\u2026] Lombardi on the Kings\u2019 Players Locking Sutter Out [\u2026]",

By my own hand, I put my fingers to, found the right station, and felt overwhelming emotion against the hard-line, desperately bullying conservatism that looks to banish people from the pleasure dome. Among many others who stood in queues under the bright hot sun on 9 May, our shadows against the school building were a comforting presence: we, me and my vote, would surely matter.\nNow, though tested by the calm of Ramadan and the joy of Raya, the change in play has been breathtakingly swift. The first Parliamentary session hasn\u2019t been held yet, but already there is a new attorney general, a new chief justice and a new governor of the Central Bank. They have been appointed, with justice also being seen to be done, on merit. This is, of course, an Islamic value. But from the Islamic party that insists on especially stiff interpretations comes only the moan that two of these figures are not Muslims. This is the same party that made a pittance of comment about putrid corruption just to advance a bill that was yet another awkward thrust for an Islamic state in its own image. Any legal system deserves support that dares call out corruption by all its names.\nMany heads of government-linked companies have also been douched in the name of removing the rot of 60-over years, especially the brunt of the last two decades. There are many promising, even exciting new members of parliament, though nothing like 30 per cent representation by women, including those of us who identify as such. The new minister of tourism, arts and culture is from Sabah, one of the two pariah Malaysian states on Borneo. This appears to be his single qualification for the post. As if coming from Sabah is all a person needs to change the world. For a Sabahan who has written several essays and plays that question peninsula-centric perspectives, this appointment is like being hoisted by my own petard. Time for a new harness.\nOf course, a change of guard is to be expected from a new government in a two-party system. But there is pause for thought. Next time, it might be only the hardliners who get to be top. But hopefully, since so much insight can be gained from being bottom, a variety of more favourable positions can come together on difficult issues.\nCertainly, it\u2019s been 20 years \u2014 a generation \u2014 since the shock and the awe of reading about anal sex and masturbation in front-page news. It became part of breakfast for everyone. Prurient and salacious interest in \u201cdespicable acts\u201d, no doubt, but it all required thinking of \u2014 or not thinking of \u2014 to understand court goings-on.\nWe had nasi lemak with the Penal Code\u2019s 377A: \u201cCarnal intercourse against the order of nature.\u201d \u201cAny person who has sexual connection with another person by the introduction of the penis into the anus or mouth of the other person is said to commit carnal intercourse against the order of nature.\u201d And \u201cshall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to 20 years, and shall also be punished with whipping.\u201d\nWe had half-boiled eggs and kicap asin with the Syariah Criminal Offences (Federal Territories) Act 1997 about liwat (sexual relations between male persons): \u201cAny male person who commits liwat shall be guilty of an offence and shall on conviction be liable to a fine not exceeding five thousand ringgit [$1,300] or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years, or whipping not exceeding six strokes, or any combination thereof.\u201d In totes, then, that was 20 years, no fine and whipping versus three years, a small fine and six strokes. One of them was getting warmer to a sense of perspective and it wasn\u2019t penal.\nThe prohibition of \u201ccarnal intercourse against the order of nature\u201d and the prohibition of \u201csexual relations between male persons\u201d might be examples of the \u201cperformative contradiction\u201d that Helen Freshwater cites and Judith Butler writes in Excitable Speech. It\u2019s a contradiction that is integral to any regulation that \u201cstates what it does not want stated\u201d. Perhaps a better example is the Sedition Act 1948, although its use against dissent has been more willy-nilly. The point is that \u201cvulnerability\u201d exists in explicit acts of prohibition because, instead of shutting off public debate, they can lead to the proliferation of it. The Penal Code and Syariah Criminal Offences Act make sodomy and liwat more speakable, not less. (Yes, yes, I get the extra bin bags of horror and shame.)\nNow that sodomy has been \u201cremoved\u201d, thanks to a pardon from the Agong, it seems we must part company. But carnal intercourse is still in the Penal Code and liwat is still in the Syariah Criminal Offences Act. If Michel Foucault is right in Discipline and Punish, there are no relations of power without resistances, and these resistances are formed where power is exercised. Power is \u201cproductive\u201d, not simply repressive. Here then to the hope and courage of me and my shadow, and friends and family in future entanglements.\nAnn Lee is a playwright and PhD candidate in Southeast Asian studies",

        "raw_content": "Tehcnology in modern mentoring Types of Mentoring\nThis new mindset around mentoring is not a fad or \u201cflavor of the month\u201d type of HR process; it is an emerging approach to enterprise-wide self-directed development. It is the natural evolution resulting from people\u2019s desire to connect with and learn from others, and the organization\u2019s desire to have a better understanding of the impact and ROI of learning and development processes. It is what both individuals and organizations have been asking for, without really knowing what to call it.\nModern mentoring is fast becoming a must-have solution for companies of all sizes. Those organizations that wait too long to make the transition to the modern view of mentoring will find themselves struggling to retain and find talented employees who feel they can grow with the company.\nGenerational Views on Mentoring Traditionalists (born between 1922 & 1945)\nare hardworking, loyal to their organization, and respectful of those in authority. They want learning that is predictable, practical, and delivered by experts. They also need to share their experience and expertise with others to feel valuable.\nBaby Boomers (born between 1945 & 1964)\nbelieve in participative management and work hard for personal gain. They want to be involved in learning that has an immediate payoff to their job. They need more help in developing the complex relational skills involved in leadership.\nGen Xers (born between 1965 & 1980)\ntend to be skeptical of those in authority and seek a better work/life balance. They are also often fiercely independent and have more of an entrepreneurial spirit. They want learning that is collaborative, peer driven, and relationally balanced. They need help settling on a career path that is both challenging to them and fits the needs of the organization.\nMillennials (born between 1981 & 2000)\nare hopeful, multi-tasking Web-surfers. They want learning that is on-demand but highly social and network oriented. They need help learning the foundational skills and social awareness needed to be effective in the organizational culture. Due to the exposure and ready access that they have had to information and resources as they have been educated, they don\u2019t have patience for learning processes that take too long.\nThis is so very interesting and I can\u00b4t wait to be a part of the future of mentoring, with more than a decade of experience I am all for the future\u2026\nTagged with: Baby Boomers \u2022 Gen Xers \u2022 Modern Mentoring \u2022 Sodexo Trends \u2022 Sodexo\u00b4s 2013 Workplace Trends Report",

        "raw_content": "About Us - Mere Museum\nDr David Longbourne MBE\nIt must have been in about 1967 or 1968 that at a Parish Council meeting the idea of having a museum in Mere was floated. The meeting was discussing the possibility of having a new County Library in the vacant school building in Church Street. Until then, Mere\u2019s Library had been in a small room in Salisbury Street in what is now the office of Elite Financial Planning, opposite The Lecture Hall. This room was quite inadequate for the needs of a town the size of Mere but, surprisingly, there was some opposition to a move to Church Street. However, good sense prevailed and it was agreed that a new County Library would take over the old National School if possible. I asked that, if a new Library was provided, space might be given to having a few showcases there to display items of local historical interest and subsequently the County offered to do this. Two large and two small cases were made available and the new Library opened in May, 1970.\nThere was at that time a Local History Committee which had produced the book \u201cThe Story of Mere\u201d in 1958 and this committee, of which I was a member, was made responsible for arranging displays in the new Library. An appeal was launched asking people to lend or give items of local historical interest and from this small beginning, a collection was gradually built up.\nIn 1972 the Local History Committee, at the suggestion of its Secretary, Christine Wallis, proposed a widening of its scope by founding a Mere Historical Society. At its inaugural meeting in Mere Library on 20th. April, 1972, a constitution was proposed and adopted and 80 people enrolled at an annual subscription of 50p. The Historical Society then took over responsibility for what became Mere Museum and remained so until 1978. In that year the Museum became independent under a new Mere Museum Committee of which I was made Chairman. The Secretary was Jo Barnes the Librarian and the Curator was Col. Cyril Scott. Representatives from the Duchy Manor School, the Parish Council and the County Council were invited to join the committee.\nThe County Museums Service had a seat on the committee and they offered \u201cpastoral care\u201d, that is, they offered advice and support and they undertook to find 45% of the cost of any approved project.\nThat left the Museum with the problem of finding 55% of the cost of any major expense and it was done by having Coffee Mornings and so on. In 1989 or 1990 Colin Anderson put forward the idea of having a Friends of Mere Museum organisation to take over the burden of fund raising and to be a support group in other ways. This proved to be a very successful idea and The Friends have continued to flourish.\nIn 1982 Cyril Scott resigned as Curator and was succeeded by Derek Behrens. Derek left Mere in 1984 so a successor was needed and, no longer Chairman of the Museum Committee, I offered to take on the job. I remained as Curator for the next 23 years! In 2001, Jenny Wilding was appointed Assistant Curator and when I retired in 2007, she was elected, much to my delight, as my successor.\nFrom early on, the difficulty of having sufficient storage space has been present. At first, the Museum had open shelves in the Library\u2019s kitchen, which was not convenient for either the Library staff or the Curator. When a Telecottage facility was proposed for Mere in 1991, that back room in the Library was designated to house it, so the Museum\u2019s storage shelves had to be moved. A dark and rather narrow passage at the back of the Library was offered as a Museum store; this was far from ideal but the Curator had to make the best of it and it remains as the Museum\u2019s main storage area. Later, space behind bookshelves at the far end of the Library was made available to the Museum and now, with new display cases that have cupboards underneath them, the storage problem has become less acute.",

        "raw_content": "Science and wonders\nAt Johns Hopkins University, neurosurgeons and biomedical engineers collaborated to create tiny, biodegradable \u201cnanoparticles\u201d that can transport DNA to brain cancer cells in mice. These scientists hope that one day, they will be able to load these particles with \u201cdeath genes\u201d and insert them in brain cancer patients by neurosurgery to selectively destroy tumour cells without damaging normal brain tissue.\n\u201cWe now have evidence,\u201d says Jordan Green, assistant professor of biomedical engineering and neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins, \u201cthat these Trojan horses will \u2026 be able to carry genes that selectively induce death in cancer cells, while leaving healthy cells healthy.\u201d\nAcross the Atlantic, scientists at Cambridge University have succeeded in printing eye cells with a 3-D printer for the first time. Since many blinding eye diseases are caused by the loss of the nerve cells in the retina, the promise of this new technology is truly staggering.\nThe advancement of science and its close cousin technology that we have witnessed in the span of just one century can be described, without exaggeration, as truly phenomenal.\nBut it is precisely because of science\u2019s great achievements, nestled in an increasingly secular culture, that some are led to elevate it to a status of omnicompetence that it does not deserve. The spectacular success of science should cause us to be wary of a dangerous triumphalism, bordering on idolatry, which often accompanies it.\nOminous signs of this tendency were already evident in the last century. In 1941, the evolutionist scientist Conrad Waddington could declare that \u201cScience by itself is able to provide mankind with a way of life which is \u2026 self-consistent and harmonious.\u201d\nAnd in 1960, Indian politician Pandit Nehru could say: \u201cIt is science alone that can solve the problems of hunger and poverty, of insanitation and illiteracy, of superstition and deadening custom and tradition, of vast resources running to waste, of a rich country inhabited by starving people.\u201d\nMore sophisticated thinkers have recognised the fallacy of this popular but inordinate confidence in science. Although science has indeed contributed greatly to human flourishing, insofar as it remains a human enterprise, it can never be anointed as humankind\u2019s saviour.\nTheologians and philosophers have long exposed the myth that says that science holds the answers to the world\u2019s problems.\nObserving its imperialistic tendencies, the British philosopher Mary Midley points out that from its birth, modern science \u201cwas associated with two strangely ambitious claims, infallibility and the formal unity of the whole of thought.\u201d\nBoth these claims are of course patently false.\nThe diverse and often competing scientific theories suggest that science is not an infallible source of knowledge. For scientists like Peter Atkins and Richard Dawkins to claim that science is the only way to truth, and that it can, in principle, explain everything, is therefore unbelievably na\u00efve. Such claims betray a simplistic view of reality, shaped by the narrow rationalism of the Enlightenment.\nThe scientific imperialists of our day have failed to recognise (or perhaps refused to acknowledge) what other scientists, philosophers and theologians are able to see so clearly: the limits of science.\nThe theologian Thomas Torrance argues persuasively that science raises questions that it is incapable of answering. Francis Collins, the Director of the Human Genome Project, rightly observes that \u201cScience is powerless to answer questions such as \u2018Why did the universe come into being?\u2019 \u2018What is the meaning of human existence?\u2019 \u2018What happens after we die?\u2019 \u201d\nAs long as scientists refuse to acknowledge the limits of science, their search for truth will be futile. As the Harvard cell biologist and religious naturalist Ursula Goodenough has tragically admitted, \u201cThe more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it seems pointless.\u201d\nScience requires a larger framework of meaning that only Christianity can supply. In fact, both science and religion have indispensable roles to play in the human quest for truth.\nAs the late Pope John Paul II has eloquently and perceptively put it:\n\u201cScience can purify religion from error; \u2026 religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes. Each can draw the other into a wider world, a world in which both can flourish \u2026 We need each other to be what we must be, what we are called to be.\u201d",

It's the kind of game for those nights when you'd like to play something, but don't want to commit to a traditional fantasy sports simulation.\nOne of the great mysteries of the sport of Elfball is just where it began, and how it got its name. The Elves of the vast forests of the Westerlands claim to have been playing the sport since the dawn of time, and that they named it in honor of themselves. The Dwarves and Orcs, high in their mountain homes, dispute this bold claim and insist that the game\u2019s name instead refers to the type of severed head that makes the best ball core; both races maintain that they are in fact the originators and some of the bloodiest wars in the history of the realms have been fought over this claim. The men of the Middle Kingdoms ignore the squabbles of the elder races and call the game De Circque instead.\nToday Elfball is played by every nation and tribe of the world, and with a few regional variations, it is played the same on fields throughout The Realms. The design of the field, the distinctive ball, and the rules of play are all quite standardized.\nThis game was prototyped in 2002 by Phigs Miniatures but did not see production until the game rules were overhauled and changed about 80% from the prototype and then released by Impact!

        "raw_content": "Children and Covenants\nTracy Polyak\ton August 23, 2012\nMy husband, the youngest of eight, grew up in a less active family. Each time a child approached his eighth birthday, his father would start attending church so that he would be able to baptize the child. Afterward, he would return to his less active status. Fortunately, my husband had a friend his age in the ward whose family would take him to church, which eventually led to serving a mission and getting married in the temple. Most of his siblings remain inactive.\nWe recently saw this phenomenon in our ward. We attended the baptism of a beautiful young girl performed by her father. We have been in the ward for about three years, and I had not seen the family until a couple of months before the baptism. I couldn\u2019t help but notice the older sister that was helping her. She also had been baptized by her father. We have not seen them back since the baptism. I have seen this pattern in many families; one might even call it a trend.\nConversely, at the same time, I became acquainted with another inactive family who decided not to have their 8yo daughter baptized. She and my daughter played together, and she appeared to be quite familiar with the church. She knew the primary songs and scripture stories. Yet her parents felt that, for whatever reason, they were not prepared to support their daughter in making and keeping the baptismal covenants.\nI feel a great deal of respect for both families. They each are struggling to overcome obstacles and do what is right for their children. I tend to personally prefer the thinking of the latter family in making sure that their children understand covenants and have the support they need to keep them. Yet, I cannot deny that I am the beneficiary of the former trend to baptize children with or without long-term familial support. If my husband had not been baptized, he would have dropped off the rolls of the church and may not have had the outside support that he received.\nI really don\u2019t know which is better, and I suspect that it depends on the family and individuals involved. I hope that we can all respect the position of the parents who make these choices and support them however we can.\nTagged as: baptism, children, covenants\nPatrice August 27, 2012, 1:12 am\nLove this thoughtful article. Thank you!\nKaren September 1, 2012, 9:38 pm\nMy family wasn\u2019t active when I was a kid, but I lived close to the church blding. Nice neighbors let me sit by them in Sacrament mtng.\nNow I\u2019ve been on a mission and married in the Temple. And very grateful for the gospel and the blessing in my life. I know that it really helped to have the support of the ward members, good Primary teachers\u2026\nI encourage you to offer those 8 year olds a ride to church and a seat with your family.\nNext post: What Are Your Favorite TV Shows?\nPrevious post: Government Guilt Assuagement",

        "raw_content": "Even though there are many store owners who will step up and do the right thing to make sure your injuries are adequately compensated for after you slip or fall on the premises, don't be surprised if even getting medical bills paid becomes a hassle. In these situations, there is a rule set to keep in mind to ensure you are treated fairly.\nAlways contact a personal injury attorney immediately.\nThe first thing that you should do after seeking medical attention for your injuries is to contact an attorney for advice. Delaying the initial contact with an attorney could easily lead to costly mistakes that could otherwise be avoided when you have professional guidance for your situation. For example, if a place of business offers to pay your first few medical bills as long as you sign something saying you are okay, this could prevent you from taking legal action if injuries are exacerbated later on.\nBe careful who you share information with after your injury.\nIf you know store employees well or shop at the location often, you may be tempted to go into great detail with store employees during general conversation prompted by a simple: how are you feeling or how have you been? Once you are injured and have contacted a lawyer, it is best to avoid sharing the details of your injuries with anyone other than your immediate family. Simple statements can be misconstrued as declarations that you are no longer suffering--especially in the eyes of a store owner who may be facing a personal injury claim against them.\nCarefully document every aspect of the injury.\nKeep tabs of every detail of what happens after you are injured in a place of business. Keep a file that contains all of the information that could be helpful when and if you do file a claim. This file should contain:\nCopies of any and all medical bills, including those for medications or transportation\nDoctors notes and medical records\nProof of time you lost from work\nGeneral information about how you are feeling from day to day and any new symptoms that arise\nDocumentation that summarizes any interactions you have with the store owner or insurance companies\nYou may shop at the same stores often, familiar with the surroundings, and even trust the employees or feel a bond with the store owner, but if something happens and you are injured on site in a retail store, the atmosphere can change really quickly. Be sure you get in touch with a personal injury attorney any time you are injured after a slip and fall in a retail store.",

The article includes some great information for business owners \u2013 whether you are married, single, about to divorce, etc.\nMr. Landers\u2019 article, \u201cDivorce-Proof Your Business, Even If You\u2019re Still Single or Happily Married,\u201d suggests that business financial planning should be consider a sort of insurance policy. In the same way we ensure our homes, autos, and lives, financial planning for your business should be taken care of \u2013 whether or not you think you\u2019ll ever need it.\nMr. Landers\u2019 article discusses a number of possibilities: Prenuptial Agreements, Asset Protection Trusts, and Postnuptial Agreements. Most importantly, Mr. Landers reminds readers that these protective measures should be in place before a divorce is a possibility. He writes, \u201cTo be truly effective, these protective methods should be in place long before divorce is a possibility. Obviously, something like a prenuptial agreement needs to be signed before you are married, but techniques such as transfers to an irrevocable trust need to be done years in advance. Depending on your state\u2019s fraudulent transfer laws, transactions can be voided up to seven years after the transfer!\u201d Read the article here.

But executive director and founder Daniel Gluck is facing these challenges head on, with ambitious plans for an expansion and new partnerships with a wide range of cultural institutions, as the museum looks to expand its curatorial scope over the next four years.\nFounded in 2002, MoSex celebrates New York City\u2019s sexual diversity, and showcases the best scholarship on sex and sexuality\u2014the first institution of its kind in the US. \u201cThe original vision for the Museum of Sex really hasn\u2019t changed over the years,\u201d stated Gluck in a email to artnet News. \u201cWhat has grown is our ability to execute.\u201d\n\u201cOur goal is to simultaneously feature exhibition in the arts, sciences, and social anthropology at any given time. We\u2019ve recently focused more in the arts, while most of our previous exhibitions had focused on social anthropology. In the next four years we hope to refocus in these areas, exploring areas such as religion, wartime, the Weimar, and the singularity,\u201d he added. \u201cThere are countless subjects we wish to explore within our exhibitions and programming. Sexuality is a subject that everyone can connect with, a uniquely powerful way to broaden understanding of human culture.\u201d\nWith a nearly endless amount of subject matter to potentially cover, it\u2019s no wonder that the museum is looking to expand, having already grown from 10,000 to 22,000 square feet. In the upcoming expansion, yet to be finalized, Gluck plans to add new galleries, an event space and auditorium, and a screening room.\"\nLabels: Exhibition News, News from the Field",

        "raw_content": "The Cleveland Browns traded Corey Coleman for a reported late-round draft pick to the Buffalo Bills.\nCleveland fans are used to the Browns disappointing them on Sundays in the fall, but on this specific Sunday during the summer, it seems as though many have been let down by their team again.\nHe has played in just 19 of a possible 32 games in his career. Perhaps the Coleman trade is an indication the team might pull the trigger on Bryant.\nAccording to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Coleman didn't fit in with Cleveland's locker room, which is why the Browns shipped him out for a cheap price tag.\nThe most infamous moment in Coleman's short National Football League career thus far was a dropped pass late in the fourth quarter against the Pittsburgh Steelers on a 4th and 2 that sealed the Browns' fate for a historic 0-16 season.\n\"We'll tell him how we do things here, what the expectations are\".\nIn 2016, Corey Coleman was at the peak of his football career. Antonio Callaway is now the starting wide receiver opposite Jarvis Landry in two-wide sets, and Rashard Higgins worked exclusively with the first unit as the No. 3 wide receiver. In his first two seasons, Coleman tallied 56 catches for 718 yards and five touchdowns.\nThe Bills lack proven depth at receiver behind starter Kelvin Benjamin.\nReturning starter Zay Jones is coming off right knee and shoulder surgery and was cleared for practice for the first time Sunday. \"This is low risk, and we'll see what happens\". Buffalo traded up to select Josh Allen with the No. 7 pick in the draft and also signed former Bengals backup AJ McCarron in free agency.",

        "title": "How Cities use Parks for Community Revitalization | RMR",
        "raw_content": "About RMR\nCollaboraton\nMy VPTM\nChicago Austin Arts Council\nConsulting Arts\nReDevelopment Management Resources - Revitalization Tools for Communities and Non Profits\nHow Cities use Parks for Community Revitalization\nParks are complex elements of a city. They can serve scores of different uses, may be specialized in their function, or can simply provide visual appeal for residents. However they work, they act to define the shape and feel of a city and its neighborhoods. They also function as a conscious tool for revitalization.\nParks can stem the downturn of a commercial area, support the stabilization of faltering neighborhoods, and provide a landmark element and a point of pride for constituents. For all these things to happen, the city needs to be open and aware of parks\u2019 potential to spur revival, and support the elements that are needed to make that happen.\nPrinter version (pdf)\nKey Point #1\nParks that serve as central walking, resting, and meeting places can revive failing or threatened commercial areas.\nRenewal takes leadership, vision, and time; with these three ingredients, revitalization tends to attract ever more investment.\nCommunity residents and the city, working together on a neighborhood park project, can turn around a distressed residential area.\nParks don\u2019t automatically lead to neighborhood revival; before investing, the city should make sure the relation of a park to its surrounding neighborhood will allow revitalization.\nKEY POINT #1:\nIn the 1960s Portland, Oregon\u2019s downtown business district began showing early signs of disinvestments, with stores starting to move to the suburbs. One suggestion to counteract the trend was to build an 11-story parking garage on the site of the old Portland Hotel.The ensuing public outcry killed the idea; instead, a square block plaza was built on the site.\nPioneer Courthouse Square, which opened in 1984, looks like a European plaza, with 66,000 bricks (each individually purchased as a fundraising device), few trees, and no grass. It functions as a public park, with streams of users walking, eating, talking, reading, watching, and listening, while professional and improvisational players perform, and events from the commercial to the political take place.\nAfter the parking garage was defeated, Meier & Frank, the linchpin downtown retailer, considered closing its store. The city committed to building dispersed parking a few blocks away, creating a bus transit mall, and developing the MAX light-rail system to keep the retailer. Several years later, Nordstrom built a flagship store facing the square.\nThe momentum carried. Ever since the square officially opened in 1984 and the MAX started in 1986, the combination of central civic open space and dense transit connections has revolutionized the way Portlanders use their downtown \u2014 and how the commercial district has responded. Other retailers like Banana Republic, Gap, and Abercrombie & Fitch located there, and two shopping centers, Pioneer Place and the Galleria, were built.There is now discussion of erecting high-end, high-rise housing nearby.\nPioneer Courthouse Square, Inc., the management agency for the square, is considering putting in an ice skating rink to add another dimension to the facility\u2019s community draw. Says Square Director Karen Whitman, \u201cMy goal is to become the Rockefeller Center of the West Coast.\u201d\nFor more than 25 years, under the leadership of Mayors Bill McNichols, Federico Pe\u00f1a, and current Mayor Wellington Webb, Denver has been steadily restoring the South Platte River and its shoreline communities to ecological and economic health. The former misused, polluted area now features watersports, 15 new adjacent parks connected by a continuous trail, and numerous new commercial, cultural, and entertainment facilities. Its most recent park addition, opened in 2001, is the Commons, near the confluence of the South Platte and Cherry Creek.\nThe 23-acre Commons was placed in the Bottoms, a blighted area of the city that was the spot of Denver\u2019s 19th century founding.The naturalistic, Olmstedian park was constructed on land recycled from a former tangle of railroad tracks and warehouses. It opened 15 years after the charette that led to its vision and five years after the city bought the land. One of its edges curves along the river and is filled with native grasses in constructed wetland seeps; the other, facing the downtown streetscape, has formal walking paths flanked by carefully spaced trees.\nThe Commons has spurred significant residential and commercial redevelopment in the Bottoms. As of early 2002 developers have built or project building more than 1 million square feet of office space, 350,000 square feet of retail establishments, 575 hotel rooms, 928 units of condominium housing, and 782 units of rental housing.The national sporting goods company REI, which overwhelmingly locates in suburbs, is thriving in a converted power plant near Commons Park.\nDowntown is walking or bicycling distance away, and an extension of the light-rail system is planned. Mayor Webb\u2019s commitment to build a park along the river seems to have been the signal the development community was waiting for. As Denver Developer Ray Suppa told ColoradoBiz magazine, \u201d That was the catalyst. It\u2019s one thing to master-plan something; it\u2019s another to put in the roads and parks.\u201d\nCommons Park and its surrounding neighborhood is proof of the resilience of cities, the ultimate strength of great locations, and of the ability of parks to send a profound message. It also teaches lessons about the power of following a vision and using public-private partnerships to incrementally restore the civic infrastructure in tandem with unleashing the economic vitality of a community.\nBaltimore\u2019s Patterson Park, a gift in 1827 from one of the founders of the B&O Railroad, provides a dramatically different snapshot of \u201cgreen revitalization.\u201d A landlocked area, its rectangular form fits squarely into the grid of the surrounding row house neighborhoods of Butcher\u2019s Hill,Washington Hill, and Greektown.With its iconic hilltop Chinese Pagoda, Patterson Park has historically played a role in the relative stability of its ethnic communities.\nIn the 1970s, as Baltimore\u2019s economy deteriorated, the park and the community both began going downhill. The park\u2019s lake became clogged with cattails, most of the sports field light poles short-circuited because of water leakage, and the pagoda had to be fenced off. Vandalism and arson destroyed several beloved buildings. Benches in need of repair were removed by the city. In 1985, a racially connected beating further undermined the reputation of the area.\nBecause of disinvestments and racial tension Patterson Park\u2019s historic cohesion had become badly shaken; but individuals and several community organizations remained committed to saving the neighborhood, and the park served as the anchor for their efforts.The Southeast Community Organization and Friends of Patterson Park worked to have a capital improvement master plan adopted, repairs and renovations were made, and private funds (such as $100,000 from the National Football League) were raised. At the same time, several community development corporations worked to get aid for housing construction and rehabilitation, and arts organizations scheduled events in the park, including a \u201cwater ballet\u201d in the swimming pool and a \u201cStars, Stripes and Snowballs\u201d big-band concert for Independence Day.\nBy the late 1990s housing demand began to increase and, while still affordable, prices were rising noticeably. Between 2000 and 2001 the average home price on the north side of Patterson Park rose by 8.2 percent, and in the first three months of 2002 it rose by another 12.9 percent (In contrast, during the same period housing prices for Baltimore as a whole declined.) Many of the new purchasers are now rehabilitating their properties.\nAlong with the gradual stabilizing of its surrounding seven neighborhoods, the park itself is getting significant upgrades. The renovated pagoda was reopened in April 2002; $100,000 was raised privately to restore the 1893 fountain; and new perimeter lighting was installed. Most important, the city commissioned a detailed study of capital needs for the park\u2019s renovation.\n\u201cPatterson Park has had a tremendous influence in East Baltimore,\u201d says Craig Thompson, a realtor with Long and Foster who lives in the area.\u201dWhen people were scared of it, it hurt the neighborhood. Now that people\u2019s perceptions are changing, it\u2019s a great attractant. Today it\u2019s just about impossible to find a house for sale right along the park.\u201d\nThere\u2019s no guarantee that a city park will be a neighborhood amenity. Shunned or poorly maintained parks can be frightening places that negatively affect their surroundings. Poorly located parks and parks that mark the edges of neighborhoods can serve as barriers or as turf markers to everyone from youth gangs to mothers with toddlers to business people walking to work.\nAlso, not every successful park exerts a revitalizing influence on its surrounding neighborhood. Parks that are extraordinarily popular in their own right can have almost no impact on their surrounding neighborhood. This can be due to the physical and economic shape of the built environment around the park. If there is no capacity to allow for the growth of small private entrepreneurial enterprises nearby, or nearby residential uses, there can be relatively little street life in the vicinity of the park. Especially in the case of downtown parks, often when the business day ends, the park becomes desolate.\nFor these reasons, parks need as much thoughtful attention to design, location, and surrounding uses as every other constructed element in the city, from housing to retail to commercial to entertainment. When careful attention is given to selective park creation or improvement, it will likely have a great impact.\nElements to keep in mind when hoping to use city parks for community revitalization:\nPHYSICAL: A park should be both a worthwhile destination in itself and an attractive walking route to use in the course of doing other business.\nPOLITICAL: Creating a park \u2014 or repairing it\n\u2014 should provide the opportunity for people in the neighborhood to get to know each other and work together for the greater good.\nECONOMIC: The park should create such a distinctive presence that it gives retailers an opportunity to play off the \u201csignature\u201d and redouble the district\u2019s vitality. For a park in a residential area, the distinctiveness should give homeowners the confidence to renovate and upgrade.\nCONTEXT: The park must be located in a community that has the physical space, economic opportunity, and political commitment to revitalize.\nCourthouse Square, Portland: www.parks.ci.portland.or.us/Parks/PioneerCourthouseSq.htm\nPatterson Park, Baltimore: www.pattersonpark.com\nCommons Park, Denver: 198.202.202.66/South_Platte_River/template21140.asp\nFor an expanded discussion on this topic, please contact the author, Peter Harnik, Director, Green Cities Initiative, Trust for Public Land; 202-543-7552; www.tpl.org.\nCity Parks Forum Briefing Papers\nThis is one in a continuing series of briefing papers on how cities can use parks to address urban challenges.

        "title": "\u201cSky Hunter\u201d Demonstrates China\u2019s Ambition for Power at All Fronts \u2013 NAOC",
        "raw_content": "China, Culture, Edward Tat, Society, Culture, and Security October 30, 2017October 30, 2017 Edward Tat\nMake no mistake, Sky Hunter is nothing like the cheap Cold War-era propaganda films of Red China\u2019s past. By all accounts, the cinematographic production value of China\u2019s latest romantic military-action drama was respectable. Released in China on September 29, Li Chen\u2019s directorial debut had much of what a Hollywood action flick of the 2010s needed on paper: an orchestral score produced by Hans Zimmer, go-big-or-go-home effects, and romantically-involved A-list leads featured in high-definition.\n\u201cThe PLAAF\u2019s financing\u2026 is a clear indication that the Communist Party understands the need to appeal to millennials at home and to demonstrate and spread Chinese culture abroad.\u201d\nBut, thanks to a laughably unrealistic plot, an absurd depiction of combat, dodgy CGI, and action scenes that were ridiculously overstuffed and partially plagiarized, Sky Hunter utterly failed to attract Chinese moviegoers and meet the expectations of its ominous stakeholder. The People\u2019s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) are no doubt bitter, having written and produced the film with Communist Party approval. In the end, Sky Hunter was nothing much more than a propaganda film meant to increase domestic military recruitment, if not showcase China\u2019s commitment to influencing entertainment and pop culture at home and abroad.\nOf course, Chinese propaganda is incomplete without a display of its latest military arsenal in pristine condition. Of that, Sky Hunter delivers. Front and centre was the PLAAF\u2019s latest and greatest multirole stealth fighter \u2013 the Chengdu J-20. In the usual communist fashion of perfected timing, the film and its promotional art shamelessly featuring the futuristic 5th generation aircraft were released just in time for the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.\nWhat Chinese officials had clearly envisioned and had aspired for was what the legendary Hollywood blockbuster Top Gun did for the US Navy in 1986. Imagine crowds of young American men being gobsmacked by the veneer appeal of sleek planes, sexy women, a ballsy and patriotic mission, topped by a soundtrack straight out of MTV. Navy recruiters would set up stands outside the theatres to accept lines of military-aged men compelled to be a part of the Navy\u2019s suddenly glamourous appeal. As a result, Navy recruitment numbers were boosted at the height of the Reagan-era, when a 600-ship Navy was demanded by the White House. Replicating that now would have been the Communist Party\u2019s goal, especially at a time when President Xi Jinping plans to increase China\u2019s military might towards 2050. The target? Unmarried and impressionable young adults eligible to join the Chinese military.\nAlas, the PLAAF\u2019s CN\u00a5200 million investment resulted in a disappointing CN\u00a5270 million at the box office, despite the fact that it was released near China\u2019s National Day \u2013 a period where patriotic and pro-military films usually find success. In comparison, this year\u2019s hugely successful and much-acclaimed Wolf Warrior 2 \u2013 a Chinese action saga and perhaps a Rambo rip-off \u2013 made CN\u00a55.67 billion with roughly the same budget. Worst of all, for the producers, the intended impact of Sky Hunter on recruitment levels and on pop culture was hampered.\nAlthough Sky Hunter was a missed opportunity, it demonstrates the advanced nature and ambitious direction of China\u2019s soft power through its modernized military-entertainment complex, as more big-budget patriotic films are covertly or overtly sponsored by the Chinese government and military. The PLAAF\u2019s financing of Sky Hunter is a clear indication that the Communist Party understands the need to appeal to millennials at home and to demonstrate and spread Chinese culture abroad. Wolf Warrior 2, with a similarly patriotic sentiment, smashed domestic records with a box-office performance rivaling top Hollywood films and garnering the attention of the West.\n\u201c[It] also evidently showcased China\u2019s desire\u2026 to take the world by storm and punish all opposition \u2013 directly opposite of Xi Jinping\u2019s apparently empty desire to \u201cremain a builder of world peace.\u201d\u201d\nAs well, Sky Hunter is clearly attuned to Chinese President Xi Jinping\u2019s ambition of a more offensive, \u201cbuilt to fight\u201d military with a truly global reach, as mentioned in his speech at the National Congress. The plot takes Chinese forces to one of their overseas airbases \u2013 an impossible proposition before Xi\u2019s reign. If the superior firepower of said forces was not enough to convince you of any offensive capacity relayed in the film, perhaps watching the use of the stealthy J-20s in the pre-emptive attack scene will change your mind.\nThe crude and crass militaristic patriotism of Sky Hunter and Wolf Warrior 2 also evidently showcased China\u2019s desire, or at least its government\u2019s desire, to take the world by storm and punish all opposition \u2013 directly opposite of Xi Jinping\u2019s apparently empty desire to \u201cremain a builder of world peace\u201d. Simply put, these films reveal China\u2019s desire for hard power exhibited through the means of soft power. Sky Hunter\u2019s opening scene featured the protagonist \u2013 a PLAAF pilot \u2013 intimidating an enemy plane by flying inverted directly above it. The stunt was not only directly lifted from Top Gun, but it also demonstrated aggressive maneuvering reminiscent of those that brought down an American P-3 reconnaissance plane in 2001. Perhaps intentionally, the P-3 also makes an appearance in the film.\nThe promotional art for Wolf Warrior 2 had a more direct message, displaying the protagonist \u2013 a reckless commando \u2013 making a rather indecent gesture with the middle of his five fingers along with the slogan \u201cAnyone who offends China, no matter how remote, must be exterminated.\u201d The success of the original film and its sequel demonstrate the popularity in mainland China of patriotism through militarism. The fact that the antagonists of the Wolf Warrior series are choicely American is a clue to exactly where this militarism should be directed towards.\nAs such, do not be fooled into thinking that the commercial failure of Sky Hunter necessarily means a drop in support of the nationalistic messages behind it. Sky Hunter pandered to patriots, but it was simply executed in a clumsy and ham-fisted way. The worry is what the film could have been: a highly-successful propaganda tool that not only increases and spreads neo-nationalistic and militaristic sentiment domestically and abroad, but also one that increases the military recruitment of young Chinese citizens being sold a highly deceitful version of glory in combat. Thankfully, Sky Hunter was a laughing stock of a film that anyone with a reasonable taste in cinema would rightfully avoid.\nPhoto: Flypast of the Chengdu J-20 during the opening of Airshow China in Zhuhai via Wikipedia.

        "title": "BBC NEWS | Programmes | Radio Newsroom | Radio News Style Guide",
        "raw_content": "Radio News Style Guide\nClarity and accessibility are vital when it comes to writing for radio\nThis is a version of a guide to usage and style intended for journalists who work in the BBC Radio Newsroom.\nNot even the most experienced will be able to obey all of it all the time.\nWhen the heat is on, accuracy and fairness take precedence over style.\nClick here for Alphabetical Style Guide\nDifferent Styles for Different Networks\nIntroducing Audio\n\"What does it matter as long as people understand what you mean?\" is a defence sometimes offered by those whose written work is being subjected to unfavourable textual analysis. The answer is in two parts. First, if something is badly written, people usually find it harder, not easier, to understand. Second, it is true that most listeners will not be offended by, or even notice, bad English. But many will notice, and will be offended. The first category will not be offended by good English, even if they don't appreciate it. The second category will be appeased, and will be less likely to switch off or write letters of complaint. Therefore good English serves our listeners better than bad English.\nCyril Connolly said: \"Literature is the art of writing something that will be read twice, journalism what will be read once\" (and who reads Cyril Connolly any more?) He might have added that radio journalism is something that cannot be read at all, and heard only once. Clarity and accessibility are the fundamentals. We must say what we have to say in as simple and direct a way as possible, without compromising its essentials. The structure of the sentence should be plain, the words used familiar and colloquial. Anything which is clumsily expressed, verbose, or imprecise will obscure meaning for those without the means to revisit what has been said.\nIt is obvious that to achieve the required transparency of style, you must be able to write good concise, accurate English. But there is another prerequisite, often not so well understood. You must know what you wish to say; and to do that, you need to have grasped what the story is about, and to have identified the important elements you need to put over. That may seem a truism. But there are radio journalists who, when politely asked what some piece of gibberish means, have been known to reply: \"I'm not sure, but that's what the copy/correspondent says\". Such people deserve to be roasted over coals.\nIt is a misconception that Radio Four demands a different way of writing from that used on other networks. \"I thought I should try to be a bit more Radio Four\" is a refrain used to explain flabby prose. We should not assume that the listener to the Six O'Clock news listens more keenly or is more intelligent and literate than the audience for any other network. The notion that a Radio Four listener's familiarity with the PSBR or Early Day Motions can be relied upon is absurd. The same species of clear, straightforward English will stand you in equally good stead whichever outlet you are writing for.\nHaving said that, it is true that the longer bulletins on Radio Four allow the writer to deploy more detail, to go a little further into a story. But this should never be done as a matter of course; only to facilitate better understanding. Make sure that the extra sentence does that, and does not merely repeat something already said in a different form, or say something of no interest or value to anyone.\nBe aware of the tone of the network for which you are writing. A more informal tone suits Five Live and to some extent Radio Two. We will write neither coarsely nor too colloquially; but neither -- in the context of, say, Drivetime on Five Live or Terry Wogan's show on Radio Two -- would we wish to sound too stuffy.\nStories written for shorter news summaries will, in general, be shorter. If a summary is to have pace and urgency, it is important for the story count to be kept high. A guide: One minute - at least five items; two minutes - at least five items, including a clip or voice report; three minutes - at least six items, with two pieces of audio; four minutes - nine items, three pieces of audio. Only in exceptional circumstances should the count fall below these levels. The essential conciseness demands the most economical use of language. Think carefully before bleating that a story is \"too complicated\" to be told in two or three sharp sentences.\nMake sure that you understand a story before starting to write it. In the long run, you will not save time by dashing ahead before you are ready. Having grasped the essentials, write at once. First thoughts are often best.\nDo not deviate from the basic subject/active verb/object structure without good reason. Refrain from starting stories with a subordinate clause ( \"In a fresh twist to the European tax harmonisation row.....\"). Whatever you have to say, get on and say it. Be careful with your first words. \"The Chancellor has increased tax\" is better than \"Tax is going up\", because the first word can easily be missed by less attentive listeners.\nAs we make more and more use of voice reports and actuality, so the skill of introducing them becomes more important. An introduction should stimulate the appetite, making it easy to understand the audio without stealing its thunder. It will usually include a brief summary or sample of what is in the insert. Make sure you know what is in the audio, so that you can avoid the absurdities of repeating something word for word, or referring to something in the introduction which is absent from the insert. Remember, if you have written the item before the arrival of the voice report or actuality, to check it for contradictions, repetitions and omissions.\nIt is boring constantly to usher in voice pieces with the words \"Lancelot Greaves reports\" or \"From Valparaiso, here's our correspondent Lancelot Greaves\". Vary it - \"as Lancelot Greaves explains.....\" \" Lancelot Greaves has been examining the background\" etc. Perhaps \"as Lancelot Greaves now adumbrates\" would be excessive; and spare us, please, from \"Lancelot Greaves has this\".\nYou can be more inventive with clips of actuality. \"Gave his/her reaction\" is overdone. You can ask a question: \"Why was Julia Maltravers so incensed?\" to which your clip furnishes the answer. You can make a statement: \"Piers Maltravers was clearly livid\". You can hint: \" Aaron Broadbill was non-committal\". Use your wits. A genuinely fresh cue line can help enliven what may, in isolation, be a thoroughly tepid clip.\nOn Radio Five Live ( and perhaps elsewhere) it can be effective to use an extract from an interview with a correspondent. Correspondents are often much more agreeable in conversation, while still conveying as much information as in the conventional voice piece. \"Paul Reynolds says the waters really do seem to be closing over the President's head\" could introduce a 45 second extract of Reynolds analysis from an earlier interview. The same can obviously be done with interviews with assorted talking heads.\nDon't clutter the text with figures. Round them up or down where exactness is not required ( almost two hundred thousand is more easily grasped than 193-thousand eight hundred and thirty two). Be sparing with percentages - almost a fifth is more accessible than 19 percent.\nBe even more sparing with \"today\". We can assume things happened today, unless they didn't, in which case we should specify. We don't need to say: \"The government today announced plans to tackle malnourishment in the National Health Service\". But the impact of a breaking story can be enhanced by a time reference: \"This evening the government announced the immediate reintroduction of compulsory military service\". If we are reporting breaking news, we should always say so, to demonstrate the immediacy of radio: \"In the past few minutes....\" or \"The Chancellor has just told MPs...\"\nBe sceptical at all times. Be particularly sceptical when dealing with assertions dressed up as facts. \"The government has announced a breakthrough in tackling inner-city crime\" is what the government would like us to say. But we cannot judge whether there has indeed been a breakthrough, or whether a mass of statistics has been cunningly arranged to give that impression. So pin the assertion on the government. We should be even more rigorous with claims about medical and scientific advances. Always seek advice from a correspondent; don't promote your own judgement or that of a news agency.\nBe faithful to English as it is spoken. No one says \"Prime Minister Tony Blair\" or \"England striker Alan Shearer\" or \"plumber Alan Smith\". Nor should we, ever. Similarly, avoid constructions like London's West End; say \"the West End of London\". Nor would anyone say \"the 47-year-old newsreader Peter Donaldson\". They would say \"the newsreader Peter Donaldson, who's 47\".\nWe should not encourage the use of clich\u00e9s but we cannot afford to be too high-minded. Remember Connolly's remark; we are not producing literature. Chaos, clash, crisis, hopes dashed, ground to a halt, in the pipeline, massive, row, scheme, sweeping changes, top-level - all these, and many others, have their uses. They are familiar terms of reference for our listeners, and exploited sensibly, contribute to the production of serviceable radio journalism. If we were prohibited from employing any of them, we would struggle to fulfil our obligations. But we must also be aware of the danger of overuse. The persistent use of \"angry clashes\" to label carefully rehearsed exchanges of empty abuse inflicts a species of staleness on a story from which it is unlikely to recover. The use of the word \"unveil\" in association with the presentation of proposals has become a disease. It is infrequently used in common parlance, and should be rested in our output. Anyone who writes \"following\", or \"the move follows\" should try to come up with an alternative. And it is not compulsory, when reporting disagreements among drivers, or stories involving unsupervised children, to use the phrases \"road rage\" or \"home alone\".\nClich\u00e9s may be excused when you are writing under pressure but jargon is inexcusable. Professions, hobbies, sports all have their own jargons. If we use the jargon we exclude the listeners who are inexpert in the field under discussion. Business and economics reporting may serve as example. Our business staff are fond of referring to the figures they report (company results, unemployment statistics etc) as \"numbers\". They do this because it's a trendy way of talking in the City. \"The latest inflation numbers look good...\" It's jargon and it will annoy many listeners so we should avoid it. Other examples: \"like-for-like sales\"; \"flotation prospectus\"; \"indirect jobs\"; \"operating profit\". Of course, you can work out what these things mean if you have a bit of time; the trouble is that the radio audience does not have that time. If we use jargon that listeners do not understand, we lose them.\nUse punctuation correctly and with care. The proper deployment of commas, semi-colons, dashes, and full stops is a great help to newsreaders, particularly when they are broadcasting something they haven't had the chance to look at in advance.\nRead what you have written to yourself. The late Radio Four reader Laurie MacMillan was once presented with a story which contained the words \"dismissed this as a myth\". In characteristically forceful fashion, she pointed out that this was not fit to be broadcast.\nIt is a primary duty, now dangerously neglected, to listen to your work as it goes out. This might seem too obvious for words, but if you don't listen to your product you will neither develop your skills nor build a proper critical faculty. Only by hearing your words uttered by Charlotte Green or Alan Dedicoat or Jane Garvey will you get a proper grasp of how well you've done your job and how you could have done it better.\nLaunch Radio Player\nSEARCH RADIO NEWSROOM:",

        "raw_content": "The truth about the Dream Act\nCongressman states his concerns with the Dream Act\nThe DREAM Act has become a rallying cry for President Obama, members of his administration, and liberal Democrats everywhere. President Obama has vowed to \u201ckeep fighting for the DREAM Act,\u201d which would grant amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants.\nIt\u2019s true when listeners or those polled don\u2019t know the facts that the DREAM Act has some appeal. After all, we are all naturally sympathetic when children are involved.\nBut the descriptions of the DREAM Act voiced by President Obama and his cohorts are not accurate. And the consequences are never told.\nDREAM Act supporters claim that only children would benefit from such a bill, but the facts tell another story. Under most DREAM Act proposals, amnesty would be given to individuals up to the age of 30\u2014not exactly children. And some other proposals don\u2019t even have an age limit.\nThese supporters also maintain that illegal immigrants can\u2019t go college without the DREAM Act. But the truth is that illegal immigrants can already go to college in most states.\nAnd ultimately, most versions of the DREAM Act actually don\u2019t even force illegal immigrants to comply with all the requirements in the bill, such as going to college or joining the military. The administration can waive requirements because of \u201chardship\u201d at its complete discretion.\nDREAM Act proposals are also a magnet for fraud. Many illegal immigrants will fraudulently claim they came here as children or that they are under 30. And the federal government has no way to check whether their claims are true or not.\nSuch massive fraud occurred after the 1986 amnesty for illegal immigrants who claimed they were agricultural workers. Studies found two-thirds of all applications for the 1986 amnesty were fraudulent.\nAnd this amnesty did nothing to stop illegal immigration. In 1986, there were about three million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. Today, there are an estimated 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. and about seven million of them work here, unfairly taking jobs from unemployed Americans.\nWhile DREAM Act supporters claim that it would only benefit children, they skip over the fact that it actually rewards the very illegal immigrant parents who knowingly violated our laws. Once their children become U.S. citizens, they can petition for their illegal immigrant parents and adult siblings to be legalized, who will then bring in others in an endless chain.\nThis kind of chain migration only encourages more illegal immigration, as parents will bring their children to the U.S. in hopes of receiving citizenship.\nPresident Obama tried to get the DREAM Act passed during a lame duck session about a year ago but it faced bipartisan opposition in Congress. This hasn\u2019t stopped the administration from passing its agenda. The Obama administration does everything it can to let illegal immigrants stay here, which compounds the problem.\nPolitical appointees at the Department of Homeland Security recently issued new deportation guidelines that amount to backdoor amnesty and strike another blow at millions of unemployed U.S. workers.\nUnder the administration\u2019s new deportation policy, DHS officials review all incoming and most pending cases before an immigration court to determine if the illegal immigrant can remain in the U.S. Since the administration has made clear that many illegal immigrants are not considered priorities for removal, including potential DREAM Act beneficiaries, this could open the door to allow millions of illegal immigrants to live and work in the U.S. without a vote of Congress.\nThe Obama administration has also cut worksite enforcement efforts by 70%, allowing illegal immigrants to continue working in jobs that rightfully belong to citizens and legal workers. And the list goes on and on \u2013 this administration has a pattern of ignoring the laws and intent of Congress.\nThe United States is based on the rule of law but the Obama administration already has dirty hands by abusing administrative authority to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants. The DREAM Act doesn\u2019t stop illegal immigration\u2014it only encourages more of it by rewarding lawbreakers.\nRep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) is Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee",

        "raw_content": "He\u2019s one of Canada\u2019s brightest country music stars. Dean Brody has topped the music charts with hit singles such as Brothers, Bounty, It\u2019s Friday, and Canadian Girls. His last album, Crop Circles, swept the music scene and the awards circuit, winning a 2014 Juno for Country Recording of the Year and a 2014 Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) award for Country Album of the Year. Brody hopes to repeat that success with his latest album, Gypsy Road, which goes on sale April 21, 2015. Shortly after, he\u2019ll hit the road criss-crossing the country for his Canadian tour. But he won\u2019t be driving his wheels: a 1999 Nissan Sentra nicknamed \u201cRoach\u201d because \u201cshe just won\u2019t die.\u201d\nPG: \u201cHow did you end up with a \u201999 Sentra?\u201d\nDB: \u201cWhen we first moved to Nashville we had no money. At first, I had a bus pass, but they don\u2019t have a good bus system in Nashville. So I bought a Ford Escort, but it broke down the same day I bought it. It had a cracked engine block. I had a mechanic look it over and he gave me the green light, but I didn\u2019t even get it home from the place we bought it.\n\u201cAs soon as the Ford busted, we got a used Sentra. We put it on a credit card. It was a beater at the time, and we\u2019ve held onto it ever since. It has 260,000 miles.\u201d\nPG: \u201cThat\u2019s more than 400,000 km! Isn\u2019t it time to ditch the Sentra?\u201d\nDB: \u201cBut it\u2019s been faithful. There\u2019s something about it \u2013 you\u2019ve made memories. You\u2019ve gone through life in that car. That car saw my first days in Nashville. It saw me get my record deal. It\u2019s really special. It\u2019s like an old friend. A lot has happened between then and now. Something about the Roach helps me maintain perspective on where I\u2019ve come from and part of me never wants to leave who I was when I bought that car. Maybe that\u2019s why I have a love for something that a lot of people probably think I should just take to the wrecker.\n\u201cI know when I go through the Tim Hortons drive-through people are thinking, \u2018what is Dean doing in this piece of junk?\u2019 It\u2019s got blue smoke coming out the back. The oil pan starts rattling when it\u2019s idling. It\u2019s embarrassing, but I always get a kick out of it. I love the unassuming aspect of driving in that car.\n\u201cMy local mechanic always gives me a hard time when I bring Roach into the shop. He\u2019s like I can\u2019t believe the Dirt Road Scholar is driving a piece of junk! Even my wife is like, \u2018You\u2019ve got to get rid of that car!\u2019 She generally doesn\u2019t go around with me in this car so the passenger side becomes a garbage can. I take it to my worksite. I haul rocks with it, pieces of iron, rusty old bolts. It\u2019s a joke in our house. Roach is just a garbage can on wheels.\n\u201cBut it\u2019s tough to let it go. It broke down a couple of times on us this winter so I\u2019m thinking it\u2019s about time I buy my dream truck. It\u2019s not proper for me not to have a truck. For ten years, I\u2019ve had my eye on a \u201968 Ford Mercury pickup, but it\u2019s hard to find.\u201d\nPG: \u201cWhy would you want an old truck?\u201d\nDB: \u201cThere\u2019s something about time that is reflected in an older vehicle. It\u2019s nostalgic and brings back memories. There\u2019s something about the era \u2013 it\u2019s a throwback. It\u2019s vintage. It\u2019s unassuming. It\u2019s quite evolved, stylistically. It still has part of that malt-shop look to it. I finally have the ability to get my dream truck, but it\u2019s hard trying to find it, especially out in the East Coast so I\u2019ll probably end up with a newer truck this year. You\u2019ll have to do another article after I get the truck so I can redeem myself!\u201d\nPG: \u201cWhat was the first vehicle you ever drove?\u201d\nDB: \u201cMy dad\u2019s \u201971 Chevy truck. I just loved it, but I could hardly shift it \u2013 it was awful. It was embarrassing. Getting into first gear was tough. It was a really embarrassing truck to learn on, but it was cool to be seen in. Man, the noises I made learning how to use that clutch at intersections were epic.\u201d\nDB: \u201cThe very first car I bought was a [Toyota] Celica. I felt like it was a hot car back then. It was $1,300. I worked all summer at the sawmill to buy it. I was really proud of it. Then, we had our first child and we moved into a Chevy Venture minivan. Then came the Ford Escort and then the Sentra. I have this thing about driving cars into the ground. I\u2019ve never actually sold a car \u2013 it\u2019s just ended up in the wreckers.\u201d\nPG: \u201cWhat do you listen to on the road \u2013 your own music?\u201d\nDB: \u201cI listen to different stuff \u2013 rock, some country. I even love old Beach Boys songs, Chris Isaak, Mumford & Sons, Aerosmith, and Guns N\u2019 Roses.\u201d\nPG: \u201cHave you ever been pulled over by a cop?\u201d\nDB: \u201cThe first time I was pulled over by a police officer was when I had my learner\u2019s license. I was on a quiet country road and I thought I was driving responsibly. So when the lights came on in the rear view I was freaking out and so was my mom, brother, and sister who were also with me. The officer came to the window, apologized and said \u2018Oh, I didn\u2019t realize you had other occupants. You matched the description of a guy who has been jumping out of his car in a housecoat and exposing himself to folks in the area!\u2019 \u201d\nPG: \u201cWhat does a \u201999 Sentra say about you?\u201d\nDB: \u201cThe car is very unassuming and that\u2019s what I love about it. It\u2019s anonymous. I love to perform and I love to write songs, but there\u2019s a big part of me that loves being anonymous. That car is past the point of anonymous now \u2013 it\u2019s embarrassing being so loud and broken. When I\u2019m driving in that car nobody can tell it\u2019s me in there except for local folks.\u201d\nPG: \u201cDo you ever drive the Sentra to gigs?\u201d\nDB: \u201cNo. That\u2019s all buses and the big Prevosts. In the photo I sent you, we\u2019re in front of an old \u201947 Spartan coach \u2013 it\u2019s a beauty. We did the photo-shoot in this old wrecker junkyard in California\u2026 it was like walking back in time. It reminded me of the malt-shop days and the kinds of buses musicians would have toured on back then. It was a great era musically and also stylistically in the automobile world.\u201d\nProfession: Country music singer-songwriter\nHometown: Smithers, BC\nMy Car: 1999 Nissan Sentra\n\u2022 nine-time CCMA Award winner and three-time JUNO Award nominee\n\u2022 worked at a sawmill before pursuing his musical career\n\u2022 released his self-titled debut album in 2009\n\u2022 other albums include Trail in Life (2010), Dirt (2012), Crop Circles (2013)\n\u2022 his foundation, The Dean Brody Foundation, helps rescue and prevent young girls from being exploited in child prostitution and human trafficking in Brazil and around the world\n\u2022 5th studio album, Gypsy Road, will be released on April 21, 2015\n\u2022 national tour begins this spring; for dates visit www.deanbrody.com\nTags: beater, celebrity, country music, dean brody, interview, nissan, sentra, stars\nBest Automotive Moments at the MuchMusic Video Awards",

        "title": "Mars Newsletter Global :: An Innovative Tour with Mars",
        "raw_content": "While once a very private company, Mars is increasingly looking for ways to engage with our communities, government leaders, and other business influencers. How are policy makers going to know about our advances in health and wellbeing if we don\u2019t talk about it? This summer, Mars has stepped up our engagement with key government officials at the National Governors Association, and providing nutrition experts with a closer look at our Mars Food operations and supply chain in the Mississippi Delta Region. Read more about Mars' participation at the National Governors Association, Mars Food's Rice is Nice Tour, and their What You Need to Know event.\nInnovating with Purpose: Mars at the National Governors Association\nThis year\u2019s National Governors Association (NGA) Summer Meeting, which Mars co-sponsored for the fourth consecutive year, saw record attendance with 1,800 participants and 30 sitting governors present. The historic event, from July 13-15 in Providence, Rhode Island, also marked the first time that a foreign Head of State, Canada\u2019s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, addressed governors, alongside Vice President Mike Pence, Tesla Founder and CEO Elon Musk, and former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.\nMars had a prominent space among a select group of sponsors at the NGA\u2019s Innovation Pavilion, another first-time feature. The display included an interactive Mars experience highlighting several of Mars\u2019 innovation and policy positions.\nGovernors and attendees clicked away at touchscreen kiosks that featured Mars U.S. footprint maps with state-by-state statistics including headcount, investments, and innovations at all sites and segments. Even more popular was the sampling of Mars\u2019 confectionery brands, provided in addition to the treats included in attendees\u2019 Mars welcome gift bags (which also included DENTASTIX\u00ae dog treats). AMERICAN HERITAGE\u2122 historical chocolate and Mars Ice Cream were prominently featured throughout the weekend\u2019s social events and each governor received NGA-branded MYM&M\u2019S\u00ae candies.\nMars met with a total of 26 of the 30 governors in attendance, as well as several foreign dignitaries. Outgoing NGA Chair and Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe took special note of Mars\u2019 reputation in his home state, telling the NGA audience that Mars is \u201cone of the greatest companies in America.\u201d Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval, the new NGA Chairman, invited Mars to work with him on a platform that includes energy and sustainability issues.\n\u201cAs always, the NGA allowed us to tell the story of our substantial U.S. footprint across 43 states by strengthening our existing relationships with Mars governors, while building new connections with recently-elected governors,\u201d said Mark Broadhurst, Director of Government Affairs & Public Policy. \u201cNurturing these relationships earns us a great deal of goodwill as we advocate to advance our growth.\u201d\nNutritious Food for Thought during Mars Food\u2019s \u201cRice is Nice\u201d Tour\nIn July, Mars Food hosted the third annual \u201cRice is Nice\u201d tour, a two-day event inviting registered dietitians and media to Memphis, Tennessee, and Greenville, Mississippi, to learn more about the company and Mars Food\u2019s brands, including UNCLE BEN\u2019S\u00ae and SEEDS OF CHANGE\u00ae. Mars Food hosted 15 influencers who contribute to publications including Good Housekeeping, Today.com, Cooking Light magazine, Huffington Post, Health magazine, and more.\nThe first day took place in Memphis and focused on Mars Food\u2019s Health & Wellbeing and sustainability commitments and the company\u2019s global and domestic impact.\nOn the second day, attendees traveled to Greenville to get a first-hand look at how Mars Food\u2019s rice products are manufactured. Attendees were welcomed by Greenville Mayor Errick Simmons and were interested to learn about Mars Food\u2019s Associates\u2019 contributions to the community through the Mars Volunteer Program (MVP).\nFollowing a tour of the Mars Food factory, the group traveled to a Mars Food rice supplier\u2019s farm. Farmers demonstrated the planting and harvesting process and spoke about Mars Food\u2019s collaboration with our suppliers to achieve our goal to source all of our rice more sustainably by 2020.\u201d\nLiz Shaw, a dietitian on the trip, was delighted to be included. \u201cIt's amazing to see such a large company advocate for health and wellness, beginning with their investment in engaging families to cook together. I'm looking forward to watching Mars Food continue to be the pioneer of their nutrition and environmental protection initiatives!\u201d\nWhat You Need to Know About Food Labeling and Sodium with Mars Food\nMars Food hosted its What You Need to Know event at the Greenville, Mississippi facility as part of its efforts to advance Associate health and wellbeing. The event, aimed at reaching Associates with information about nutrition and wellness, takes place three times a year at different Mars Food North America locations. The Greenville event focused on the importance of understanding food labels.\nWhile the Nutrition Facts Panel (NFP) on food packages can be confusing to consumers, recent regulatory changes to the NFP will improve how nutritional information is communicated on products. The Greenville event focused on helping Associates understand how to interpret the revised label, as well as taking a closer look at sodium levels in Mars Food meals.\nMars Food is currently working to reduce sodium in its products to align sodium levels with the Mars Food Nutrition Criteria, based on World Health Organization guidance. Mars Food Associates enjoyed hearing about ways they could reduce their sodium intake and how the new NFP is an innovative take on an old idea.\n\u201cOur Health & Wellbeing initiative is something we\u2019re really proud to be working toward,\u201d said Caroline Sherman, Vice President of Corporate Affairs, Mars Food North America. \u201cWe have a responsibility to be transparent, not only with our consumers, but also with our own Associates. It\u2019s important to dedicate time inward, toward our own health.\u201d",

This year\u2019s pop tabs will support the Augusta house.\n\u201cOur 4-H members are dedicated to this cause. In Crawford County, Georgia, the kids even went to their county recycling facility and popped the tabs off all their cans,\u201d Bledsoe said.\nGeorgia 4-H members in sixth through eighth grades will bring their pop tabs to 4-H Junior Conference, a weekend retreat set to take place in Rock Eagle 4-H Center on Nov. 5-6. The pop tab community service project is one of many that culminate each year at the conference.\nThis year, 4-H members are also collecting personal care items to create \u201cblessing bags\u201d for families who stay in Ronald McDonald Houses.\n\u201cFamilies may forget things like soap, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste and toothbrushes if they come to a Ronald McDonald House in a hurry,\u201d Bledsoe said.\nDiapers of all sizes are also being collected at the conference to support a nonprofit agency that provides diapers to needy parents, a project organized by Evans County 4-H member Hannah Summers.\n\u201cThese service projects, which were designed by 4-H members, provide the students with the opportunity to exhibit generosity and benevolence,\u201d Bledsoe said.\nTo donate pop tabs, personal care items or diapers for these projects, contact your local University of Georgia Cooperative Extension office.\nRonald McDonald House Charities of Central Georgia provides a home away from home for families of seriously ill, critically injured or medically fragile children who are receiving treatment at area medical facilities. The house offers a nurturing and supportive environment, including a place to eat, sleep, launder clothes and relax. Since opening in November 2002, the house has served over 5,000 families from 125 Georgia counties, 28 states and 8 countries. For more information, visit rmhccga.org.\nThe mission of Georgia 4-H is to assist youth in acquiring knowledge, developing life skills and forming attitudes that will enable them to become self-directing, productive and contributing members of society. This mission is accomplished through hands-on learning experiences focused on agricultural and environmental issues, agriculture awareness, leadership, communication skills, foods and nutrition, health, energy conservation and citizenship.

        "title": "Todd Bowles FB",
        "raw_content": "Todd Robert Bowles was born November 18, 1963 in Elizabeth. He grew up playing pickup football games with his friends and two older brothers. Todd played quarterback in these games. Later, for coach Don Somma at Elizabeth High School, he played every other position\u2014including tailback, tight end, corner and safety. Todd was recruited by Temple\u2019s Bruce Arians. By 1984, Todd\u2019s junior year, he was the heart of one of the nation\u2019s best defenses, along with Kevin Ross and Anthony Young. He picked off 7 passes in 41 college games.\nTodd went undrafted in 1986 but was invited to camp by several NFL teams, including the Washington Redskins. He won a backup job as a defensive back and was part of the team that bombed the Broncos in the Super Bowl. Todd moved into the starting lineup as a free safety the following season. He intercepted 13 passes in six seasons with Washington.\nTodd signed with the 49ers as a free agent in 1991 and played one season before being released. The Redskins brought him back for two seasons before he called it a career. Todd thought he might be interested in coaching. His defensive backs coach, Emmitt Thomas, advised him to get away from the game for a while\u2014otherwise he would just be coaching the way he played. Todd followed Thomas\u2019s advice and returned to the NFL in 1995 as a scout with the Green Bay Packers.\nTodd began his climb up the coaching ladder at Morehouse College and then at Grambling, working alongside Doug Williams. He joined the coaching staff of the Miami Dolphins in 1998 and was named interim head coach at the end of the 2011 season, after Tomy Sparano was fired. The Dolphins went 2\u20131 to close out the season. The following year, Todd found himself as part of Andy Reid\u2019s staff in Philadelphia. Reid named him defensive coordinator midway through the season.\nIn 2013, Bruce Arians hired Todd to be his defensive coordinator with the Arizona Cardinals. Todd revamped the defense and helped the club double its victory total from the previous year, winning 10 games. In 2014, the Cardinals went 11\u20135 and Todd was voted Assistant Coach of the Year in he first year the award was given.\nThe New York Jets hired Todd to be their head coach in 2015. The team had imploded under Rex Ryan the year before. Under Todd, the defense tightened up and backup quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had a career year. The Jets won 10 games and narrowly missed the playoffs. In 2016, the law of averages caught up with New York and the team plummeted to 5\u201311. Jets fans were calling for Todd\u2019s head, but owner Woody Johnson stuck with him in what was meant to be a rebuilding 2017 campaign.\nAfter dropping their first two games, the Jets rallied under low expectations (some experts picked them to win 2 games) and beat the Dolphins, Jaguars and Browns to stand 3\u20132 after five games. Three losses followed, but the team was in each game until the final minutes. With their co-tenants, the Giants, suffering through a catastrophic season, Jets fans owned unexpected bragging rights to New York football in 2017 albeit with a 5\u201311 record.\nThe Jets took quarterback Sam Darnold in the first round of the 2018 draft and Todd handed him the reins to the offense. Darnold overcame inexperience and injuries to finish the year well, but the team let too many games slip away, including an epic overtime battle in late December against the Packers. Though highly respected as a coach around the NFL, Todd failed to turn the team around and the defense never developed a big-play personality. The Jets fired Todd after the season and he immediately joined Arians as defensive coordinator with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.",

It was a 36-hole open medley event held over a two day period in Bowling Green, KY. David Milliken was president of the club. Joe Owmby was secretary. The tournament was open to all races. There was also a special division for women. The cost was $10 for men and $7 for women. A dinner and dance were held after the first day of play at Elks Lodge No.1282.

        "raw_content": "On what day of the week was Jesus crucified?\nTraditionally, the Church has set the day of the crucifixion on Friday. This may be because of the scriptures that say He was crucified on \u201cthe day before the Sabbath\u201d (Mk 15:42 et al.) However, there is another Sabbath \u2013 the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread which is the day after Passover. (Ex 12:16; Lev 23:7; Num 28:18) So the referenced Sabbath may be the \u201cHigh Sabbath\u201d of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.\nA clue is given in Matthew 12:39-40: \u201cBut He answered and said to them, \"An evil and adulterous generation craves for a sign; and yet no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet; for just as JONAH WAS THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE BELLY OF THE SEA MONSTER, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.\u201d\nThe latest Jesus could have been resurrected is the following Sunday because the women came to the tomb and found it empty: \u201cNow after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave. \u2026 \"He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying\" \u2013 Matthew 28:1,6. If the \u201csign of Jonah\u201d is meant to be taken literally, then the latest that Jesus could have been crucified is Thursday (Day/Night 1: Thursday-Friday, Day/Night 2: Friday/Saturday, Day/Night 3: Saturday/Sunday.)\nIt is also possible that He rose sometime earlier on Saturday (since there weren\u2019t witnesses on that day) so it could be that He was crucified on Wednesday. However, if this is the case, He would have most likely have had to enter Jerusalem on Saturday, which would be a violation of the Sabbath because of His riding of the donkey.\nConclusion: If the \u201csign of Jonah\u201d is meant literally, it is most likely that Jesus was crucified on Thursday.\nPosted by David Messer at 5:24 PM No comments:\nLabels: Speculation, Theology\nWhen was Passover in the year 30 CE?\nAlthough we don\u2019t know for sure, many scholars date Jesus\u2019 death and resurrection to the year 30 CE. If this is true, what is the most likely day and date for Passover (and the crucifixion) in that year?\nBefore the Second Temple was destroyed in 70 CE, the beginning of each month was determined by observation of the crescent moon. The beginning of the year, Aviv (\u05d0\u05d1\u05d9\u05d1\u200e), was determined by the state of growth of the barley crop. It usually reaches the aviv stage in March or April each year. Because weather plays a big role in determining both the beginning of the month and the year, we can\u2019t know for certain when these determinations were made in the year 30.\nThe new moon in March that year occurred on Wednesday, March 22nd at 7:50 PM (http://www.timeanddate.com) by the Julian calendar. Since sunset is about 6:00 PM it could not be seen that night. The next night (Thursday) the Moon would be about 22 hours old. The record for seeing a new moon with the unaided eye is about 15 hours old (http://www.earthsky.org/faq/young-moon-visibility) so it is fairly likely that it would be spotted that night, weather permitting. If it was seen Thursday night after sunset, the first day of the month of Aviv (Nisan) would be Friday.\nIf all of these assumptions are true, then Passover, occurring on the 14th of Nisan, would have been on Thursday, April 6th 30 CE.\nThis is a statement of my personal beliefs. It is a work in progress as I'm certainly still learning and I will undoubtedly change my positions over time. I intend to edit this posting as necessary.\nFor now I'm just going to write down my basic beliefs -- I will add more details later...\nMay the Lord God guide me to correctly interpret His Word and may He lead me to His Truth.\nThis is one of the foundational doctrines of the Protestants reformation. (For more information, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sola_scriptura)\nI believe that the Holy Bible in it's original manuscript is the authoritative and inerrant revealed Word of God.\nMy beliefs may be closer to Solo Scriptura in that, although I give a great weight to the opinions of the great teachers of the Church and the great sages of Judaism, in the end I feel that it is up to the individual to interpret the Bible according to his own conscience with the guidance of the Holy Spirit.\nThe infallibility of the Bible is of great importance to my faith in that, without the revealed word of the Holy One, I wouldn't have a basis for the rest of my beliefs. I would be limited in knowing that there is a God, but not knowing who He is.\nThere is one God. The Bible clearly states this in Deuteronomy 6:4.\nJesus Christ (Yeshua HaMashiach) is the Son of God and is fully human and fully divine\nThis is also clear in John 1:1-15 and John 20:28. I'm not sure how exactly God can be both divine and human at the same time, but that is what the Bible says so I accept it.\nJesus lived a sinless life and willingly suffered and died as the perfect atoning sacrifice and rose again as the firstborn from the dead and rules over the whole universe at the right hand of the Father.\nThis is the crux of the matter. (No pun intended. :-) Once again I'm not sure how this works, but Yeshua's death somehow paid the punishment due to us. The punishment for sin is death, so what happens with a sinless man is put to death? God's justice somehow demands that His death pays for other's sins. Some Jewish sages have written that the death of a righteous person can atone for many. It makes sense that the death of a infinitely righteous person will atone for an infinite number of people.\nIn any event, this is a pretty good deal for those who believe in Him...\nThe purpose of the Law (Torah) is to reveal sins not to allow people to work their way into Gods favor but is not \"done away with\"\nI believe that the purpose of the law was never to bring people to righteousness -- in fact it does the opposite. Its purpose was to reveal sin.\nMay all who read this be Blessed in the Name of the Yeshua HaMashiach, my Lord and my God,\nPosted by David Messer at 11:52 AM No comments:\nLabels: My Beliefs, Theology\nI'm planning to use this forum to discuss matters related to Messianic Israel, the Two Houses movement, and my beliefs in general.\nI hope you find some of the postings here intriguing, enlightening, and entertaining. Who knows what is to come...\nThank you for stopping by, and may God Bless you!\nPosted by David Messer at 3:51 PM 2 comments:\nMy Beliefs (1)\nRedeemed Israel - Batya Wootten's Blog\nPassion and Passover Timeline --- David Messer\nWhat Day of the Week Was Christ Crucified? --- Lori Eldridge\nBible Gateway - Online Bible\nKey of David Publishing\nLigonier Ministries - R.

People who are out of a job are no longer counted as unemployed once they stop searching for employment. The percentage of Americans working or looking for jobs fell to 63.3 percent in March, the lowest percentage in nearly 34 years - since 1979.\nSome Obama loyalists are desperately trying to assign blame for the bad job numbers on the \"sequester\" - which was actually Obama's wacky brainchild - but, as the Wall Street Journal points out: \"you won\u2019t find much evidence of that in the latest jobs report.\"\n\"The federal government\u2019s civilian workforce fell by just 2,000 in March apart from almost 12,000 cuts at the U.S. Postal Service, which of course has a different set of problems,\" the Journal noted. \"State-government jobs rose by 9,000... and local-government employment dipped by just 2,000 jobs.\"\nSo, blaming sequestration is just a cop-out, a worn-out ploy used by the left-wing propagandists as part of their never-ending campaign to prop up a failed and hopelessly inept Presidency.\nhttp://rehabgad.nation2.com/prokr123\nhttp://sho8.net/",

        "raw_content": "obnsecurity | Due Diligence\n\u201cDue diligence\u201d is a term used for a number of concepts, involving either an investigation of a business or person prior to signing a contract, or an act with a certain standard of care. It\u2019s knowing who you are doing business with prior to doing business with them.\nA common example of due diligence in various industries is the process through which a potential acquirer evaluates a target company or its assets for an acquisition.\nDue diligence can be defined as:\n1. The examination of a potential target for merger, acquisition, privatization, or similar corporate finance transaction normally by a buyer.\n2. A reasonable investigation focusing on material future matters.\n3. An investigation on the current practices of process and policies.\n4. An examination aiming to make an acquisition decision via the principles of valuation and shareholder value analysis.\nInformation security due diligence is often undertaken during the information technology procurement process to ensure risks are known, managed and during mergers and acquisitions, due diligence reviews, to identify and assess the business risks.\nDue diligence in civil procedure is the idea that reasonable investigation is necessary before certain kinds of relief are requested.\nFor example, duly diligent efforts to locate and/or serve a party with civil process is frequently a requirement for a party seeking to use means other than personal service to obtain jurisdiction over a party. Similarly, in areas of the law such as bankruptcy, an attorney representing someone filing a bankruptcy petition must engage in due diligence to determine that the representations made in the bankruptcy petition are factually accurate. Due diligence is also generally a prerequisite to a request for relief where civil litigants are permitted to conduct pre-litigation discovery of facts necessary to determine whether or not a party has a factual basis for a cause of action.\nIn civil actions seeking a foreclosure or seizure of property, a party requesting this relief is frequently required to engage in due diligence to determine who may claim an interest in the property by reviewing public records concerning the property, and sometimes, by a physical inspection of the property that would reveal a possible interest in the property of a tenant or other person.\nDue diligence is also a concept found in the civil litigation concept of a statute of limitations. Frequently, a statute of limitations begins to run against a plaintiff when that plaintiff knew or should have known had that plaintiff investigated the matter with due diligence, that the plaintiff had a claim against a defendant. In this context, the term \u201cdue diligence\u201d determines the scope of a party\u2019s constructive knowledge, upon receiving notice of facts sufficient to constitute \u201cinquiry notice\u201d that alerts a would-be plaintiff that further investigation might reveal a cause of action.\nIn criminal law, due diligence is the only available defense to a crime that is one of strict liability (i.e., a crime that only requires an \u201cActus Reus\u201d and no \u201cMens Rea).\u201d Once the criminal offence is proven, the defendant must prove on balance that they did everything possible to prevent the act from happening. It is not enough that they took the normal standard of care in their industry, they must show that they took every reasonable precaution.\nDue diligence is also used in criminal law to describe the scope of the duty of a prosecutor and to take efforts to turn over potentially exculpatory evidence to (accused) criminal defendants.",

        "raw_content": "I live in Oklahoma City and have during the entire tenure of Mick Cornett as Mayor. We have had occasion to visit before and during his terms in office. He is a nice guy. He is intelligent and he has strong communication skills. He is not a conservative by any definition.\nSome will say he was a good manager of our city. Well, we have a city manager to do that. They can point to the recent MAPS projects, but should note that they are built with funds from a tax increase he supported, but the city is now faced with the costs of operation of those projects and little to nothing was done to prepare for those costs. In the waning days of his final term another tax increase was passed at his urging and those funds may well be used to plug the gap in his planning.\nThe most important project in the recent MAPS plan is the convention center. Any observant citizen of the city will know that it has been mired in problems and delays. He cannot be credited with a success in this matter.\nHis campaign seems to be taking credit for the Thunder. Nearly all of us are pleased to have a big league team, and more that they are finding success. As the team is a private business, and an expensive one, the credit should first go to the investors who bought a team in Seattle and then moved them to Oklahoma. Second, if a public entity is to be credited, the state legislature made a significant \u201cinvestment\u201d in the team. Finally, the person most directly involved in the city government\u2019s role in getting the team here is former State Senator David Holt who has now succeeded Cornett at City Hall. Holt even wrote a popular book entitled, Big League City.\nThere may be little opportunity for a mayor to establish conservative credentials, but there are opportunities for the opposite. As Mayor, Mick Cornett wrote a letter to Congress to discourage any repeal of the \u201cAffordable Care Act\u201d also known as Obamacare. In his letter he says, \u201cThe effects of repealing the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will be most heavily felt at the local level, so it is our responsibility to protect the citizens of our cities and metro areas. The new GOP plan is bad for cities, bad for people who live in cities and bad for people who provide healthcare in cities.\u201d He continued by stating that \u201chealthcare is not a privilege; it is a human right.\u201d\nIt should be noted that this was not a simple note to a single member of Congress. This was a formal and public letter from the U.S. Conference of Mayors and Cornett was the primary signatory and the head of the organization.\nDoes it need to be stated that conservatives do not favor Obamacare?\nWhat of other issues of import to conservatives? Cornett has no record nor known stated opinions or policies that could be considered pro-life, pro-2nd Amendment, or favoring smaller government. Regarding the final matter, he is quite proud of his expansion of government in Oklahoma City. His tenure as Mayor, the longest in city history, did not include a single significant improvement in efficiency or cost reduction in city services.\nThe other GOP candidates have variant levels of conservative credentials. Mick Cornett not only lacks the same, he has abundant evidence of the opposite.\nNo one who votes for Mick Cornett will have any cause to consider themselves to be a conservative, and if the OKGOP nominates him it abolishes the moniker \u201cconservative\u201d from its description.",

        "title": "OPINION: Little Busters!, Angel Beats! and Shared Themes - oprainfall",
        "raw_content": "OPINION: The Shared Themes of Angel Beats! and Little Busters!\nBy Chris Melchin / December 4th, 2018\nJust a heads-up before I start, this should go without saying, but the following piece contains major spoilers for both Little Busters! and the Angel Beats! anime series. I find that they share similar themes, which are impossible to properly discuss without spoilers. Also, I will be assuming some level of familiarity with each of these stories and their characters, to make things simpler.\nDeath is not an element that\u2019s uncommon in Jun Maeda\u2019s work. This is not particularly shocking, considering he\u2019s one of the progenitors of the nakige (or \u201ccrying game\u201d) style of visual novel, which uses a specific plot structure and story elements to get the reader to cry. Death of characters is a way of doing this, but two works in particular go beyond death into the ideas of absolution and allowing one to move on without regrets, although they do so in somewhat different ways: the visual novel-turned-anime series Little Busters, and the anime mixed media franchise-turned-visual novel Angel Beats.\nLittle Busters doesn\u2019t show its true colours until you finish all the routes (including doing Rin\u2019s twice) and unlock the Refrain story, which ties everything else together and reveals the true overarching story; the bulk of the plot, including each character\u2019s route, takes place in a sort of dream world, created by Kyousuke and the rest of the Little Busters for Riki and Rin, following a horrific bus accident during a school trip where they were the only ones who would survive. The stated purpose of the dream world is to help Riki and Rin get stronger to face the outside world on their own, and likely deal with the deaths of their friends. The way this is done is by having Riki help each of the girls resolve their lingering regrets from their lives, while giving Rin a chance to open up and learn how to make friends beyond the core group of Riki, Kyousuke, Masato and Kengo. Even afterwards, Sasami\u2019s route takes place in another dream, this time belonging to her childhood cat, resolving its dying wish to see her once more after having been abandoned several years prior.\nAngel Beats is more upfront with its messaging, establishing from the start that the world in which Otonashi wakes up is the afterlife. That being said, it\u2019s not initially made clear why everyone is there, in that strange version of limbo. The only information given by Yuri at the start is that anyone who attends the school like a normal student eventually disappears, their fate initially unknown. However, as the plot progresses, Otonashi gradually realizes the purpose of the world, that is to allow those who died young after living traumatic lives to move past that trauma and resolve their own regrets by living a normal, fulfilling life before being reborn and having another chance to live. How this happens varies between characters (with most of them disappearing off-screen), whether it be by fulfilling their individual regrets like with Iwasawa and Yui, or with the graduation ceremony, like Otonashi, Kanade, Yuri, Hinata and Ayato.\nWhile the two series tackle similar themes, the way they tackle them is different. Little Busters is subtle in its approach with some of the routes, such as Komari\u2019s and Haruka\u2019s, being grounded enough to seem like something that could actually be happening in a realistic setting, since they deal with very concrete regrets: Komari\u2019s inability to come to terms with her brother\u2019s death, and Haruka\u2019s regret about never making up with her sister Kanata. Meanwhile, others deal with more abstract issues, such as Kud\u2019s feelings of guilt over seemingly having abandoned her mother by not returning to her home country after the failed rocket launch, Kurugaya\u2019s curiosity about her own ability to feel regular emotions, and Mio\u2019s wish that she could\u2019ve been more outgoing.\nMeanwhile, Angel Beats takes place in a sort of afterlife, although its purpose is not made known until episode three, with Iwasawa fulfilling her wish and disappearing. From there, after remembering his own death in a train accident, Otonashi comes to realize that disappearances are linked to resolving their regrets, and eventually starts working along with Kanade to help the members of SSS move on, starting with Yui. Once the shadow creatures begin appearing and attacking, the members at large vow to move on (mostly off-screen), ending with the graduation ceremony. Finding resolution is more self-driven in Angel Beats, even if it is mostly to escape from the shadows attacking them, but it\u2019s still self-motivated as opposed to Little Busters where it\u2019s largely done for Riki and Rin\u2019s sake.\nI wish we got to see more of how the other members of the SSS moved on in Angel Beats, but such is the nature of a short series. I\u2019m curious to see how the visual novel approaches the subject, with the nature of the medium allowing more individual focus. The first part features Yui, Iwasawa and Matsushita, and from what I\u2019ve seen of the CGs (at least for Iwasawa) the story seems to be more about the characters\u2019 \u201clives\u201d together in the afterlife, but I\u2019m going to be waiting for the eventual English version to see if and how it\u2019s like the story in the anime. Even if absolution is less of a prominent theme in the visual novel, it will still be nice to see the backstories of the other characters, and what guilt or regrets have left them in limbo. Meanwhile it\u2019s less specifically addressed in Little Busters, and something one would only be specifically aware of on a second full playthrough after having seen Refrain. The idea of resolution of regrets is more implicit, although it\u2019s clearer in the less grounded routes such as Kurugaya, Mio, Kud, and Sasami.\nI don\u2019t have any grand point to make by connecting the two; I just thought it was interesting that these series have such similar stories yet with such different approaches. I love both these series\u2014Little Busters is my favourite visual novel and Angel Beats is one of my favourite anime series\u2014and it was only fairly recently that I noticed the thematic connection between their stories. Chances are it\u2019s just a coincidence, but it\u2019s always interesting to see a single creator taking a shot at different approaches to a similar premise, no matter how different they may be on the surface.\nangel beatsEditorialKeyLittle Busters!opinionVisualArt's\nPrevious Post:Playasia Weekly Specials\nNext Post:Atelier Arland Series Deluxe Pack Launches Today",

The OHHM provides clear recommendations, from the experts, on the unique challenges faced by health providers in humanitarian settings including clinical presentations for which conventional medical training offers little preparation and syndromic management approaches, and includes practical guidance on the integration of Mental Health care and Epidemiology to increase programmatic impact. It also provides detailed information on the contextual issues involved in humanitarian operations, including coordination, health systems design, priorities in displacement, security and logistics and outlines the underlying drivers at play in humanitarian settings, including economics and gender based inequities and violence. It details the relevance of international law, and its practical application in complex emergencies, and covers the changing picture of humanitarian operations, with increasingly complicated and chaotic contexts and the unfortunate escalation of violence against humanitarian providers and facility.

The Handbook covers all major medical and surgical specialties, with a new section on paediatrics added for the second edition. Introductory chapters have been included on the development of evidence-based medicine, giving uninitiated readers the tools required to critically analyse and understand medical studies. Complex trials have been distilled to key relevant facts, for quick reference and understanding. This is a comprehensive one-stop shop for medical students, trainees, and clinicians of all levels that presents key information for a selection of seminal evidence that has informed medical and surgical practice. Readers are introduced to the statistical methods and tools needed to critically analyse trial data, providing a key for the terms and statistical methods encountered in the book and within clinical research as a whole. Leading figures in the major specialties have selected and summarized some of the most important trials, while analysis of the key message and impact of the trial firmly places the evidence into a practical setting for the reader.

The format of the book is retained. The first four chapters offer a pragmatic guide to evaluating rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases, showing how a differential diagnosis can be formed on the basis of symptoms, examination, and investigation findings, both for regional musculoskeletal and systemic generalized conditions. Part II comprises chapters on all the major rheumatic and bone diseases and autoimmune connective tissue diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, spondyloarthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus), crystal-induced musculoskeletal disease, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, antiphospholipid syndrome, Sj\u00f6gren\u2019s syndrome, osteoporosis, vasculitis, spinal disorders and back pain, and chronic pain syndromes, as well as new chapters on rare diseases and hereditary disorders. Part II includes chapters on drugs used in rheumatology practice, glucocorticoid injection therapy, and rheumatological emergencies. All chapters are updated to include details on paediatric and adolescent rheumatology, dealt with fairly cursorily in previous Handbook editions. Greatly expanded chapters are included on drugs used in rheumatology, pain syndromes, and the presentation of paediatric and adolescent disease.Less",

After covering Harrisburg politics for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Bumsted was hired by LNP and now oversees a team of reporters for The Caucus, a publication covering state government and politics. Under his leadership, The Caucus has won several awards, including Best New Print Product and the top regional brand in North America by the International News Media Association.\nIn addition to his vast body of work exposing government corruption and scandals, Bumsted has also mentored young reporters through the Pennsylvania Legislative Correspondents\u2019 Association internship program. Three members of The Caucus team are past Bumsted interns.\nPaula Knudsen receiving the 2018 Benjamin Franklin Award for Excellence for Brad Bumsted",

        "raw_content": "Starting your own business, particularly in the building sector, can be a pretty difficult undertaking at the best of times. Inconveniences in time and pocket can range from the biggest to the smallest \u2013 but each and all of them can make you question why you did what you did, and what you will need to differently in the future in order to avoid such a little nasty surprise happening again. One way of getting around this sort of thing is to establish a relationship of trust and cheap prices with a local store that will supply all your needs and demands as and when you want them.\nIt\u2019s the little things that help, so when you are looking to purchase a new ladder, set of tools, protective gear or a container to keep that protective gear in \u2013 and other \u2013you will want to be able to do so relatively easily and inexpensively. An establishment associated with shopping saver will probably offer you the best prices along these lines. Their customer service and after-purchase satisfaction, too, should look after you really well. If you are looking to buy in bulk or perhaps just even in the odd singular, then you will have come to the right place for your greatest and least of all needs.\nIt is such a lovely thing when an item, brand name or overall experience comes with some sort of warranty, be it six months or something as long as two years. In some instances, they go for even longer \u2013 like up to a decade \u2013 depending on what the item will be used for and how it was manufactured in the first place. The best thing to do is to ask an in-store salesman to help you understand the full picture of what you can and can\u2019t get warranties on.\nTell or ask a friend\nYou will almost certainly know someone who has experienced something along these lines in the past and will be pleasantly surprised at how many of them really counted it as an enjoyable experience and nominal expense overall. On the other side of it, you might know somebody who really needs to save some money and could do with a word of mouth referral from you. You can effectively coach them through the process, warning them of the good to look out for and the bad to avoid. Not that there will be any bad, for the most part, as this sort of shopping for building materials and other hardly ever goes wrong.\nAt the end of the day, you will want to do the best you can do within reason to look after the products you have purchased. Yes, the system on record should be more than willing to take on returns, but you really can do your part to avoid this having to be the case. Look after your stuff, treat it with care and get bang for your buck from a longer lasting time with the item or items.",

        "raw_content": "AMSTERDAM, N.Y.- The Jamestown Jammers captured their first PGCBL Championship on Wednesday night, taking Game 3 of the PGCBL Finals with a 8-6 victory over the Amsterdam Mohawks. The victory, which saw the Jammers come back from a 5-0 deficit, reversed Jamestown's fate from last season, a Game 3 loss to Mohawk Valley.\nEarly in the contest, the Mohawks looked poised to claim their fifth PGCBL title, jumping out to a 5-0 lead through two and a half innings. The lead started with three runs in the top of the second inning. Joe Genord (South Florida) belted a two-run shot, and Justin Foscue (Mississippi State) immediately followed with a solo shot, stretching the lead for the Mohawks to 3-0.\nAnother home run followed in the top of the third inning, as Michael Ludowig (Wake Forest) drilled a two-run homer that also scored Richie Barrella (Manhattan).\nJamestown, who was the designated home team despite playing in Amsterdam, began to rally in the bottom of the third inning, using a home run of their own to get back within two runs. After a walk and a single, Sterling Hayes (Vanderbilt) clubbed a three-run home run with one out in the inning, cutting the Amsterdam lead to 5-3.\nBoth teams scored a run in the fourth inning, keeping the Amsterdam lead at two runs, 6-4. An RBI single from Elvis Peralta (Marshall) provided the run for the Mohawks, while a leadoff single by Jeff Timko (Eastern Michigan) turned into a Jamestown run thanks to two wild pitches and a flyout.\nThe biggest hit in the PGCBL history of the Jamestown Jammers came in the bottom of the seventh, and it gave the Jammers the lead for good. Walks drawn by Chris Rubottom (Wofford) and Brett Migliore (Canisius), followed by a popout and a strikeout, brought Chase Keng (UTSA) to the plate with two on and two outs. On an 0-1 pitch, Keng cleared the wall at Shuttleworth Park, giving the Jammers a 7-6 lead.\nOne more insurance run was added to the Jammers' total in the bottom of the eighth. Timko walked to lead off the inning, and moved to third base on a double from Dailin Lee (UC Irvine). Ben Livorsi (St. Louis) then drove in Timko with a sacrifice fly, extending the Jamestown lead to 8-6.\nRyan Boyer (Pitt Bradford) continued his stellar playoff performance with 2.1 scoreless innings of relief to close out the game. Of the seven outs recorded by Boyer, five came on strikeouts, including the final out to clinch a PGCBL championship for the Jammers. In the Finals, Boyer went 2-0 with 3.2 scoreless innings of work, and struck out nine of the 15 batters he faced. For his efforts, he was named the Most Outstanding Player of the PGCBL Finals.\nJamestown's victory in Game 3 capped one of the most competitive championship series in league history. The three games were decided by a combined four runs, with the tying or winning run at the plate to end each game. The Jammers are the fourth different franchise to win a PGCBL title, joining Amsterdam, the Mohawk Valley DiamondDawgs, and the Newark Pilots.",

        "raw_content": "London is the primary setting for the novel. Although many of the familiar landmarks are seen in London, there are also new ones suited to the new world, such as the Slough Crematorium and the College of Emotional Engineering. There is also a temporary shift in the setting to New Mexico, where there is a Reservation of Savages. The time is in the future, where scientific advancement is evident in every walk of life; in fact, science has become a \"god,\" dictating human behavior, especially that of the upper class. The atmosphere is one of feverish excitement and fabricated happiness; the suppression that is rampant is so subtle that it is not even suspected.\nIn the aftermath of World War I, the general mood was to wipe out the bitter past and seek out a utopian society. When Huxley wrote the novel in 1932, he took much of his contemporary society and presented it in extreme form, creating a world ruled by totalitarianism, deification of science, and emotional engineering. The inspiration for the content of the novel came from the leaders of the day, including Karl Marx, Henry Ford, and Sigmund Freud.\nJohn the Savage\nThe protagonist of the novel who represents the author's viewpoint. He was born and brought up on a Reservation. Though fathered by the Director, he has a beta-minus for a mother.\nThe resident controller for Western Europe and one of the Ten World Controllers. Fully conversant with the traditions and values of the old world, he is the major spokesperson for the new one.\nA worker who is attached to the Psychology Bureau. From the beginning he is singled out for his looks as well as his behavior. Prompted by ulterior motives, he is instrumental in transporting the Savage and Linda to the new world.\nA nurse in the Hatchery. She is uncommonly pretty. She dates both Foster and Marx and is later violently attracted to Mr. Savage. Note: It is mistakenly and commonly assumed that she has lupus, from her physical appearance while working in the Hatchery bathed in red light. This gives the workers the appearance of having lupus, but this is not the case.\nA strikingly handsome Alpha-plus. By profession, he is a lecturer at the College of Emotional Engineering; he is also a practicing Emotional Engineer and a writer.\nA beta-minus, the mother of John, and the ex-girlfriend of the Director of Hatcheries and Conditioning. She gets lost on a visit to a reservation with the D.H.C. and is stranded there until Marx restores her to the New World.\nThe Director of Hatcheries and Conditioning\nThe father of the Savage whose pet name is Tomakin. He is a rather pompous and rigid adherent of the system, who must leave his post in ignominy.\nA fair-haired, ruddy young alpha-plus. He is happy to be leading a fully conditioned life and is ever ready with statistical data.\nFanny Crowne\nA young friend of Lenina. She plays the role of confidante and, occasionally, advisor.\nAssistant Predestinator\nA man who provokes and ridicules Marx.\nBenito Hoover\nA man who is known for being \"notoriously good- natured.\" His sunny temperament is reflected in his chubby red face and total lack of malice.\nThe Warden of the Reservation\nAn alpha-minus that is full of useless information and is determined to share it with everyone he meets.\nMiss Keate\nThe head Mistress of Eton. She is briefly impressed by Marx because of his association with the Savage.\nCommunity Songster of Canterbury - the New World's counterpart of the Archbishop of Canterbury. A man of importance in the community, he plays a leading role in the religion of the state.",

I got lucky enough to go to one on technology, and the new computers and screens that are hooked up in about two rooms in every department. I got \"chosen\" for this workshop because I am computer savvy. The AP running it began by asking the people in the room why we did not use technology. One person mentioned accessibility. The guy refuted this and pointed to the newly installed equipment. I then told him \"Training. We need lots of training and it should be on school time.\" He got kind of nasty and said \"That is what your prep periods are for. Prep does not mean double lunch. Besides, you can always come in early or stay late.\" He lost me with that comment. I left at the end but went back to speak to him about his rudeness. Of course, he was not around. I will speak to him next week. He doesn't know me. He doesn't know that my lunch is always used as a prep when I am not tutoring. He asked why we don't use technology. I told him. I guess he could not deal with an honest answer.\nLabels: AP, overburden, training\nI am so sick and tired of the assumption that teachers need to be self-sacrificing, and that our personal time should be solely devoted to school matters. I adopted a mindset years ago that goes something like, \"this is my job, it is not my life\", and I am determined to stick to that. If that makes me a terrible, undedicated teacher, so be it.\nBTW- Thanks for the add to your \"good reads\" list- I really appreciate it!",

        "raw_content": "Home Travel Cool Travel Tips\nVisiting a new place is an exciting experience but can be quite nerve-wracking, even for seasoned travelers. Before you get your flights booked and bags packed, take a minute to read through the following tips to help you minimize travel stress and maximize your vacation enjoyment.\nDon't bring any unnecessary valuables with you. The more valuables you bring with you, the more chance you have of losing one or more of them or possibly having them stolen.\nTell your children what to expect out of airport security. You want to explain what will happen before arriving at the airport; however, make sure not to make it seem like a bad thing. As much as possible throughout the security check, stay near your kids. Have one adult go through first to show them what they should do.\nTry to go to the gym prior to getting on a flight. Taking a long flight can be tedious. Sitting the same way for a long time can cause your legs or back to cramp. You will be more relaxed during your flight and can help avoid body aches by stretching before your flight.\nStretch your legs once per hour or more when you're on a long flight. You can do this by walking to the restroom, even if you don't have to go. Sitting for too long is not only bad for your muscles, but it can cause blood clots.\nArriving the night before is essential. Staying over at a hotel that customarily allows their patrons to leave their vehicles there during their cruise is a smart move. If you cannot find any details about parking, ask the hotel staff what their policy is.\nAlways know what is happening socially and politically in all countries you visit. The best place to find this information is the federal B.C.A. They provide travel advisories and other information that is of interest for tourists going abroad. Doing this will alert you to dangerous situations before you get caught up in them.\nCreate a packing list for your trip! Your list should be made well in advance (7-30 days) and should include all of your necessities. This will keep you away from chaos no matter how late you pack.\nMake use of email alerts such as e-tracking when you book travel through online travel sites. It will keep you up to date with the cheapest way to travel. It will send you an email if a flight you booked or are watching lowers in price.\nAlways look at the expiration dates that are printed on your passports. Some countries have certain rules about the expiration. A country may decide to not let you enter if your passport is expiring within a certain amount of time. These times can be three or six months, or even eight months to a year.\nIf you are flying somewhere with gifts in your bags, don't bother wrapping them. It is a waste of time to wrap the presents because the TSA may have to open them anyway during inspections. Instead, pack sheets of wrapping paper, or buy paper at your destination.\nIf you are planning on leaving the country, buy a voltage converter or electrical adapter. If you wait to buy one until you arrive at the airport or your destination, they will be much more expensive.\nDon't think you have to travel great distances to have a good vacation. There are many things to do in your own home state or town. Your travel expenses can be lower if you support local businesses by staying close to home. You might even learn about a great attraction in your area that you didn't know about.\nMake sure you are prepared to take care of yourself, even on longer flights. Bring your own blanket, pillow and headphones if your trip is going to be a long one. You may also want to pack along a few snacks so you can have something substantial to eat during your flight.\nSign up for each airline's e-newsletter. These newsletters are great if you want to take advantage of special offers, discounts and other exclusive perks. The savings you get from these newsletters make the extra email worth it.\nYou will be able to observe incredible animals and plants. Everyone should experience the majesty and austerity of the desert at some point in their life.\nTraveling is a great way to educate your family. Traveling to foreign lands provides you with an ideal opportunity to teach your children about the workings of the world beyond your own country, and, with just a few sensible precautions, it is also completely safe. Going abroad is the best way to learn about other cultures. This, in turn, helps you develop tolerance and respect for them.\nBy keeping this article's advice in mind, you can learn about new things to experience on your next trip. Both novice and seasoned travelers will have a more memorable and enjoyable experience.",

One of the most damning things about those labor unions is that they are SO organized, especially when it comes to politics. Fundraising, rallying, donating to campaigns and issues, and lobbying politicians are all pieces of the allegedly overwhelming influence that unions are having at the State Capitol. A local Tea Party website even goes so far as to say that \u201cOhio\u2019s Democrats are bought and paid for by the unions.\u201d Sickening, right?

Plunderbund has over ten times as many fans.\nIn case you had any doubt that Better Ohio was just an extension of Kasich\u2019s campaign, today they went and provided the proof: a fundraising email sent by the Kasich campaign urging people to visit Better Ohio.\n\u201cGrassroots coalition of Ohioans\u201d my ass.\nOne Ohio United mailer contains one long list of lies\nOne Ohio United, the non-profit founded by Kasich\u2019s campaign staff to help promote his budget sent out a mailer this week that is basically one big long list of old data, disproved myths and outright lies.\nThe cover is a copy of a Dispatch article from 2009 that predicts the possibility of an $8 Billion deficit in 2012. We\u2019ve debunked this stupid myth so many times it\u2019s starting to get tedious. Kasich\u2019s own people never believed there was an $8 billion deficit, and the fact that they couldn\u2019t find a more recent headline is pretty telling. [\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "PSP 760 000: \"Introduction to Psychoanalytic Studies\"\nContent: This course is an introduction to psychoanalytic theory. Students will learn the key concepts of psychoanalysis as articulated by Sigmund Freud and subsequent theorists. The goals of this course are twofold: (1) to expose students to the vast terrain of psychoanalytic theory; and (2) to emphasize the links between theory and clinical practice.\n[Crosslisted with 790 005]\nPSP 789 00P: \"The Writings of Sigmund Freud\"\nTu 10:15-11:45 AM\nContent: An in-depth immersion in the writings of Sigmund Freud, 1895 \u2013 1937. The development of Freud\u2019s clinical, technical, and theoretical ideas will be elucidated through close readings of many of his major texts as well as of some of his lesser known essays.\nThis is the first part of a year long seminar. The second part will be offered next semester. Students can choose to attend either the yearlong seminar or only half of it. Each semester will count for 2 credit hours. Students will only be admitted with the permission of the instructor. Students should contact Dr. Paul to secure his permission.\n[Cross listed with ILA 790]\nPSP 789 02P: \"Body History: Posture, Health, and Disability\"\nT 2:15-5:15 PM\nContent: This is a two-semester research seminar for graduate students. The intent is to read critical texts the first term and prepare a topic for a special issue of a journal. The second term is for the preparation of the essays.\nPSP 789: \"Drama, Justice and Theatrical Performance: Between Theater and Trials\"\nContent: This course will study literary (and sometimes historical, and cinematic) courtroom dramas, in reflecting on the relation between the legal stage and the theatrical stage. Legal trials share with theatrical plays the fact that they are social spectacles of living confrontations, embodying conflicts and disputes that are enacted on a stage, address an audience, follow ceremonial practices and rituals, and use dialogue and actors (or performers) who play designated roles. This course will ask: What is the reason for modern theater\u2019s increasing emphasis on trials? What can trials teach us about theater? And conversely, what can the theater teach us about trials? What is the role of trials \u2013 as spectacular crises of truth \u2013 in the theater of history and of cultural memory? Observing how courtroom dramas (in culture, and in literature) take place as exchanges between events, acts, bodies, words, ritual, ceremony, and testimony, we will ask: What does it mean to be a player (in life, and in the world)? We will view the stage as a space of intersection between the private and the public, between the individual and the collective, between the sacred and the secular, as well as a space of exchange between illusion and reality, reason and madness, consciousness and the unconsciousness\n[Cross listed with CPLT 751, ILA 790, ENG 780R]\nPSP 789 03P: \"Queer Theory\"\nContent: This course is an introduction to key concepts and debates in queer theory. The course will begin with a brief history of the emergence of queer in academic and activist contexts, and will be framed by Sedgwick\u2019s first four Axioms from Epistemology of the Closet. This introduction will highlight the contentious nature of queer, even for its most ardent practitioners. The methodological foundations of queer theory will be investigated in the work of two decisive figures in twentieth century theories of sexuality: Freud and Foucault. What major contributions do they make to thinking queerly, and how can the infamous tension between their theories of sexuality be managed? We will then examine a number of current debates in the field: What relationships can there be between analyses of gender and those of sexuality? What essentialisms and theories of embodiment can be put into question by queer theory? What are the sexual politics of normativity? This course will provide students with frameworks for researching and thinking queerly that can be used in a variety of interdisciplinary contexts. Strong emphasis will be placed on close argumentation of queer principles.\nTexts: No set text.\nRequirements: Course grades will be based on class participation and three short papers.\n[Crosslisted with WGS 752R 00P]\nCPLT 751 005: \"Contemporary Film Theory\"\nMWF 9:35-10:25 AM (Lectures); T 8:00-10:00 PM (Screenings)\nObjectives: By the end of this class you will be able to: identify and describe key trends of Western film theory and criticism written after 1960, and use and critique the methods of semiology, narratology, psychoanalysis, critical and cultural theory as ways of understanding contemporary film and media.\nTexts: Roland Barthes, Image/Music/Text (Noonday Press, 1978); Stanley Cavell, The World Viewed (Cambridge, MA: Harvard UP, 1980); Christian Metz, Film Language: A Semiotics of the Cinema (Chicago: U of Chicago P, 1991); The Imaginary Signifier: Psychoanalysis and the Cinema (Bloomington: Indian UP, 1977); Robert Stam et al.

All other texts will be on electronic reserve or on book reserve\nParticulars: Mandatory film screenings, short paper (5-7-page), final exam.\n[Cross listed with FILM 582]\nWGS 585: \"Butler: From Performativity to Ethics\"\nContent: This seminar will explore the work of the philosopher and feminist theorist Judith Butler. Beginning with Butler\u2019s work on the French reception of Hegel, Subjects of Desire (1987), the course will offer an overview of Butler's major works, including Gender Trouble (1990), Bodies That Matter (1993), The Psychic Life of Power (1997), Undoing Gender (2004), Precarious Life (2004), Giving an Account of Oneself (2005), Frames of War (2009), and Parting Ways (2012). Moving chronologically through the various stages of Butler's thinking, we will examine her shift from gender performativity and sexual subversion to questions of precarity and an ethics of the other. We will ask about Butler's relation to other thinkers, especially Foucault, Derrida, Freud, Arendt, and Levinas, and will explore the implications of her ethics for contemporary politics. The course will focus on close reading as a mode of philosophical analysis, and will include questions of method as they relate to Butler\u2019s influence on contemporary theory.\nReadings will be made available in electronic form via Blackboard and Reserves Direct. Course requirements include two papers and active participation in seminar discussions.\nPrerequisites: at least one course in feminist or queer theory and permission of the instructor.\n[Cross listed with CPLT 751 and Phil 789]\nWGS 751R: \"Feminist Theory\"\nContent: This is an advanced course designed to offer doctoral students with prior training in feminist theory a chance to revisit critical debates in the field of Western feminist theory. It is primarily organized around a set of acknowledged \u201cclassics\u201d in the field that address some of the most contentious concepts feminists have worked with over the past several decades, including woman, gender, patriarchy, domination, oppression, voice, consciousness, essentialism, identity, difference, intersectionality, agency, subjectivity, representation, embodiment, discourse, power, performativity, sexuality, and heteronormativity. The last part of the course includes some more recent texts that have already proven influential. The readings also reflect a range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, epistemologies, methodologies, and discursive styles that will offer us a chance to explore the methods, metaphors, and politics of feminist inquiry.\nNOTE: This course is by permission only. Women\u2019s Studies Certificate students and other graduate students with training in feminist theory should contact Dr. Sparks via email (hsparks@emory.edu) to request permission. Please describe your training in theory, including what feminist theory courses you have had, where you took them, and what major feminist theoretical works you have already read. Please include copies of syllabi if possible.\nParticulars: Active participation in seminar discussions, six article critiques, and a final seminar paper.\nENG 789 R: \"Special Topics in Literature: Thick Love: Birthing the Death-Bound-Subject\"\nContent: Building on Orlando Patterson\u2019s notion of \u201csocial death\u201d and my own definition of the \u201cdeath-bound-subject,\u201d this course will examine (mostly) black feminist neo-slave and Jim Crow narratives that are concerned with the \u201cbirthing\u201d of the death-bound-subject. We will focus on the aporetic predicament of the black (slave) mother whose \u201cgift of life\u201d can be and often was immediately appropriated via the \u201cthreat of death.\u201d Premised on the notion that the threat of death is the most fundamental mode of coercion, the course will examine how that threat is deployed for the purposes of coercion and how it is deployed as a mode of resistance. We will explore the \u201cimpossible\u201d imbrication of life and death that lies at the heart of slavery as well as the transformation, via the agency of death, of subjects into subject-commodities. Methodologically, we will approach these issues from Marxian, psychoanalytic, phenomenological, and feminist viewpoints. Theoretically, I am particularly interested in interrogating how death is deployed in the \u201creproduction of the relations of production,\u201d in the process of \u201cprimitive accumulation,\u201d and in the implications of these for the maternal site. However, the novels to be studied are extremely rich and their articulation of the coercion and resistance that attend the slave maternal subject-position can be read from many different vantage points.\nPrimary texts will include Octavia Butler\u2019s Kindred and \u201cBloodchild,\u201d Gayl Jones\u2019 Corregidora, Toni Morrison\u2019s Beloved, Alice Walker\u2019s Third Life of Grange Copeland, Sherley Ann Williams\u2019 Dessa Rose, and Richard Wright\u2019s The Long Dream.\nSecondary Texts will include substantive portions of Lisa Guenther\u2019s The Gift of the Other: Levinas and the Politics of Reproduction and Abdul JanMohamed\u2019s The Death-Bound-Subject. These will be posted on the blackboard along with a host of articles and book chapters on life, death, mourning & melancholia, motherhood, the politics of reproduction (biological, cultural, and material), gift theory, slavery as a source of primitive accumulation, ideology and hegemony, etc., etc.,\nParticulars: Each student will be asked to present two oral reports and write one or more papers totaling between 20 and 30 pages.\nENG 789R: \"Special Topics in Literature: Critical Disabilities Studies\"\nContent: This graduate seminar will focus on the emerging body of critical and primary work in critical disability studies. Our purpose is to engage this body of work thoughtfully and critically, both as individual critics and as an intellectual community. We will engage intersectional workings and multiple subject positions such as gender, race, sexuality, ethnicity, and class along with disability. Disability studies is an interdisciplinary academic field of inquiry that expands health science perspectives by examining understandings of disability from cultural perspectives such as: civil and human rights issues minority identity group, social justice issue, sociological formation, historic community, diversity category, category of critical analysis, subject of the arts.\nText book: Davis, Lennard (2010).

        "raw_content": "Rhyme Scheme Of Ballad Of The Landlord Essay\n18.02.2018 Sharn\nSample Student Analysis and\nComparison Essay on Poetry\nStriving for Equality\nLangston Hughes makes people think. This sounds simplistic and vague, yes, but he understands exactly how to grab the reader with entertaining lyric, yet also provoke deep thought. Born in Joplin, Missouri in 1902, Hughes spent his childhood bouncing between his grandmother and mother while his dad exited the picture at an early age (Poets.org). The biggest influences on his writing were jazz and Walt Whitman (Poets.org). He wanted to share the blunt truth of his people\u2019s livelihood and culture (Poets.org). Two of his poems, in particular, embody both well-written text and force one to put his or herself in the shoes of the narrator: \u201cBallad of the Landlord\u201d and \u201cI, Too.\u201d The first poem tells the story of a man who is being mistreated by his landlord due to his race while the second is an uplifting piece showing one\u2019s persistent nature in representing his or her country. He uses these pieces to illustrate life for the African-American while discrimination was still much more prevalent. Hughes reveals the proud and determined mindset of the African-American during such troubling times through imagery and emotion. His goal is to convey how strongly people of color strive for equality.\nStructure and rhythm are some of the keys to unlocking what Langston is trying to say. The beauty and uniqueness to Hughes\u2019s poetry is that he does not confine himself to any limitation with his poetry in regards to structure. In fact, the lack of proper structure in many of his pieces is purposely done for symbolization. While \u201cBallad of the Landlord\u201d follows a fairly strict form, \u201cI, Too\u201d is quite abstract. The latter does not follow a certain syllable count, stanza count, or even rhyme. This has a significant impact on how the reader takes it in. The focus now moves toward the meaning rather than having words flow together. Suddenly, there is more power within the text and the reader is more drawn into the narrator\u2019s strong will and upbeat attitude toward fighting discrimination. The other poem, however, does have clear and consistent rhyme and rhythm. In the first six stanzas, an A-B-C-B rhyme scheme is followed while the rhythm almost resembles a nursery rhyme. In this different approach, Hughes is giving the poem a catchy sound while also delivering the harsh reality of a colored man dealing with his living arrangements. The rhythm may be intended to reach a younger audience better and warn them of what is to come.\nWord choice and alignment play a role in revealing Hughes' theme of equality as well. \u201cDon\u2019t you \u2018member\u201d and \u201cUm-huh\u201d from \u201cThe Ballad of the Landlord\u201d represent the urban language which people such as the narrator tended to speak (3, 17). These phrases cause the reader to feel like the situation is real and that they are in the moment. Attributing an accent or different way of speaking is a great tool that can be used to increase the legitimacy of the character. The questions being asked such as \u201cWhat? You gonna get eviction orders?\u201d escalate the situation\u2019s severity by putting a harsh reality into the reader\u2019s head (13). Rising tension between a colored resident and white landlord is being portrayed. Asking questions in a poem also forces one to ponder and create his or her own answer. Simple lines like \u201cArrest\u201d and \u201cIron cell\u201d create a dramatic tone as well (27, 29). Condensing a line into such few words highlights its importance to the story. \u201cI, Too\u201d also shows this concept with the entirety of the text. Only two lines contain more than five words and eleven of them have three or fewer. The small amount of words is deliberate and meant to address the simple nature of an African-American trying to achieve social equality.\nHughes uses tone to help guide the reader toward his message of unity. However, the poems differ in this regard and were written to address separate attitudes toward attacking discrimination. \u201cThe Ballad of the Landlord\u201d carries a very somber and real feeling. This poem attempts to put the reader in the situation and experience everything first-hand. Hughes\u2019s goal of telling it like it is in daily lives of African-Americans is evident in this piece. \u201cI, Too\u201d takes a different approach in grabbing one\u2019s attention. This is meant a much more of an inspiring tale to strike confidence and strong will into someone facing the same odds. Powerful lines such as \u201cThey\u2019ll see how beautiful I am\u201d signify just how bright the future can still be for someone battling racism or profiling. The last line, in particular, \u201cI, too, am America\u201d really drives home Hughes\u2019s point that an American is an American regardless of color. Everyone equally represents the nation.\nBoth of these pieces from the legendary Hughes offer great insight into the struggles of achieving social equality during his lifetime. Langston exposed harsh realities of which many people never knew or experienced for themselves. \u201cThe Ballad of the Landlord\u201d and \u201cI, Too\u201d offer both authenticity and hope. Even if at the time it seemed like an uphill battle, strides were being made toward beating discrimination. Hughes establishes himself as a major proponent of Civil Rights and exquisite writer.\nHughes, Langston. \u201cI Too.\u201d The Norton Introduction to Literature. Shorter 12th Edition. Kelly J. Mays.

The new and small HiddenHUB is able to bring a unique ability to adapt the sound to the layout of a room. Designed for home use, it comes packaged with a whole host of features that can rarely be found all in one device.\nThe disc-shaped device can be mounted on a wall, laid on a coffee table or even set down on a bookshelf, which leaves you with no hassle for finding space. It should put out capable audio sounds, too, with its four high-definition 2-inch drivers and neodymium 3.5-inch subwoofer distributing the sound a full 360 degrees.\nUnlike most omnidirectional speakers that simply distribute the audio the exact same way, the HiddenHUB automatically adjusts its audio profile after analyzing the layout of a room, regulating each driver and distributing the frequencies to fill every corner of the space with a rich sound. This means that you will still be able to experience the full-fledge of the speaker no matter which corner of the room you are at.\nThe speaker aims to offer the best audio possible as it uses Wi-Fi for wireless connectivity, whether you are playing MP3 or lossless CD-quality music. It also has the hardware to create its own 5GHz private streaming network, just in case you don\u2019t host WiFi in your home. A multi-room audio experience of being able to stream your tunes to other speakers in your house is extended as it accommodates not just WiFi, but also Bluetooth, Airplay, and DLNA.\nThere is an accompanying app that controls the speaker as well as touch-based physical controls on the edge of the disc. You can reserve a HiddenHUB for yourself via Kickstarter for $359.",

Experts and participants from 12 different agencies gathered in Kona, Hawaii to gain experience in evaluating ecosystem services and how to effectively communicate the benefits they provide to people to guide decision making and inform management within their jurisdiction. The workshop included a field trip to the Four Seasons Resort Hualalai and Kiholo Bay, where participants applied their new skills to identify the ecosystem services each place provides. Over the week, participants became familiar with different tools and resources for assessing and valuing ecosystem services and learned how to navigate and create maps with Mapping Ocean Wealth. Next steps for the participants include sharing key concepts and messages about ecosystem services within their jurisdiction and incorporating learned skills into their work, projects and plans.

The ibis-headed Thoth, scribe of the gods, records the result. If his heart equals exactly the weight of the feather, Hunefer is allowed to pass into the afterlife. If not, he is eaten by the waiting chimeric devouring creature Ammit composed of the deadly crocodile, lion, and hippopotamus. Vignettes such as these were a common illustration in Egyptian books of the dead.\nThe Book of the Dead is an ancient Egyptian funerary text, used from the beginning of the New Kingdom (around 1550 BCE) to around 50 BCE.[1] The original Egyptian name for the text, transliterated rw nw prt m hrw[2] is translated as \"Book of Coming Forth by Day\".[3] Another translation would be \"Book of emerging forth into the Light\". \"Book\" is the closest term to describe the loose collection of texts[4] consisting of a number of magic spells intended to assist a dead person's journey through the Duat, or underworld, and into the afterlife and written by many priests over a period of about 1000 years.\nThe Book of the Dead was part of a tradition of funerary texts which includes the earlier Pyramid Texts and Coffin Texts, which were painted onto objects, not papyrus. Some of the spells included were drawn from these older works and date to the 3rd millennium BCE. Other spells were composed later in Egyptian history, dating to the Third Intermediate Period (11th to 7th centuries BCE). A number of the spells which made up the Book continued to be inscribed on tomb walls and sarcophagi, as had always been the spells from which they originated. The Book of the Dead was placed in the coffin or burial chamber of the deceased.\nThere was no single or canonical Book of the Dead. The surviving papyri contain a varying selection of religious and magical texts and vary considerably in their illustration. Some people seem to have commissioned their own copies of the Book of the Dead, perhaps choosing the spells they thought most vital in their own progression to the afterlife. The Book of the Dead was most commonly written in hieroglyphic or hieratic script on a papyrus scroll, and often illustrated with vignettes depicting the deceased and their journey into the afterlife.\n3 Egyptian concepts of death and afterlife\n3.2 Afterlife\n4 Producing a Book of the Dead\n5 Discovery, translation, interpretation and preservation\nFile:Hieroglyph Text from Teti I pyramid.jpg\nPart of the Pyramid Texts, a precursor of the Book of the Dead, inscribed on the tomb of Teti\nThe Book of the Dead developed from a tradition of funerary manuscripts dating back to the Egyptian Old Kingdom. The first funerary texts were the Pyramid Texts, first used in the Pyramid of King Unas of the 5th dynasty, around 2400 BCE.[5] These texts were written on the walls of the burial chambers within pyramids, and were exclusively for the use of the Pharaoh (and, from the 6th dynasty, the Queen). The Pyramid Texts were written in an unusual hieroglyphic style; many of the hieroglyphs representing humans or animals were left incomplete or drawn mutilated, most likely to prevent them causing any harm to the dead pharaoh.[6] The purpose of the Pyramid Texts was to help the dead King take his place amongst the gods, in particular to reunite him with his divine father Ra; at this period the afterlife was seen as being in the sky, rather than the underworld described in the Book of the Dead.[6] Towards the end of the Old Kingdom, the Pyramid Texts ceased to be an exclusively royal privilege, and were adopted by regional governors and other high-ranking officials.\nIn the Middle Kingdom, a new funerary text emerged, the Coffin Texts. The Coffin Texts used a newer version of the language, new spells, and included illustrations for the first time. The Coffin Texts were most commonly written on the inner surfaces of coffins, though they are occasionally found on tomb walls or on papyri.[6] The Coffin Texts were available to wealthy private individuals, vastly increasing the number of people who could expect to participate in the afterlife; a process which has been described as the \"democratization of the afterlife\".[7]\nThe Book of the Dead first developed in Thebes towards the beginning of the Second Intermediate Period, around 1700 BCE. The earliest known occurrence of the spells included in the Book of the Dead is from the coffin of Queen Mentuhotep, of the 13th dynasty, where the new spells were included amongst older texts known from the Pyramid Texts and Coffin Texts. Some of the spells introduced at this time claim an older provenance; for instance the rubric to spell 30B states that it was discovered by the Prince Hordjedef in the reign of King Menkaure, many hundreds of years before it is attested in the archaeological record.[8]\nBy the 19th dynasty, the Book of the Dead had become widespread not only for members of the royal family, but courtiers and other officials as well. At this stage, the spells were typically inscribed on linen shrouds wrapped around the dead, though occasionally they are found written on coffins or on papyrus.[9]\nThe New Kingdom saw the Book of the Dead develop and spread further. The famous Spell 125, the 'Weighing of the Heart', is first known from the reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III, c.1475 BCE. From this period onward the Book of the Dead was typically written on a papyrus scroll, and the text illustrated with vignettes. During the 19th dynasty in particular, the vignettes tended to be lavish, sometimes at the expense of the surrounding text.[10]\nIn the Third Intermediate Period, the Book of the Dead started to appear in hieratic script, as well as in the traditional hieroglyphics. The hieratic scrolls were a cheaper version, lacking illustration apart from a single vignette at the beginning, and were produced on smaller papyri. At the same time, many burials used additional funerary texts, for instance the Amduat.[11]\nDuring the 25th and 26th dynasties, the Book of the Dead was updated, revised and standardised. Spells were consistently ordered and numbered for the first time. This standardised version is known today as the 'Saite recension', after the Saite (26th) dynasty. In the Late period and Ptolemaic period, the Book of the Dead remained based on the Saite recension, though increasingly abbreviated towards the end of the Ptolemaic period. New funerary texts appeared, including the Book of Breathing and Book of Traversing Eternity. The last use of the Book of the Dead was in the 1st century BCE, though some artistic motifs drawn from it were still in use in Roman times.[12]\nSee also: List of Book of the Dead spells\nFile:Bookofthedeadspell17.jpg\nThe mystical Spell 17, from the Papyrus of Ani. The vignette at the top illustrates, from left to right, the god Heh as a representation of the Sea; a gateway to the realm of Osiris; the Eye of Horus; the celestial cow Mehet-Weret; and a human head rising from a coffin, guarded by the four Sons of Horus.[13]\nThe Book of the Dead is made up of a number of individual texts and their accompanying illustrations. Most sub-texts begin with the word ro, which can mean mouth, speech, a chapter of a book, spell, utterance, or incantation. This ambiguity reflects the similarity in Egyptian thought between ritual speech and magical power.[14] In the context of the Book of the Dead, it is typically translated as either \"chapter\" or \"spell\". In this article, the word \"spell\" is used.\nAt present, some 192 spells are known,[15] though no single manuscript contains them all. They served a range of purposes. Some are intended to give the deceased mystical knowledge in the afterlife, or perhaps to identify them with the gods: for instance, Spell 17, an obscure and lengthy description of the god Atum.[16] Others are incantations to ensure the different elements of the dead person's being were preserved and reunited, and to give the deceased control over the world around him. Still others protect the deceased from various hostile forces, or guide him through the underworld past various obstacles. Famously, two spells also deal with the judgement of the deceased in the Weighing of the Heart ritual.\nSuch spells as 26-30, and sometimes spells 6 and 126 relate to the heart, and were inscribed on scarabs.[17]\nThe texts and images of the Book of the Dead were magical as well as religious. Magic was as legitimate an activity as praying to the gods, even when the magic was aimed at controlling the gods themselves.[18] Indeed, there was little distinction for the Ancient Egyptians between magical and religious practice.[19] The concept of magic (heka) was also intimately linked with the spoken and written word. The act of speaking a ritual formula was an act of creation;[20] there is a sense in which action and speech were one and the same thing.[19] The magical power of words extended to the written word. Hieroglyphic script was held to have been invented by the god Thoth, and the hieroglyphs themselves were powerful. Written words conveyed the full force of a spell.[20] This was even true when the text was abbreviated or omitted, as often occurred in later Book of the Dead scrolls, particularly if the accompanying images were present.[21] The Egyptians also believed that knowing the name of something gave power over it; thus, the Book of the Dead equips its owner with the mystical names of many of the entities he would encounter in the afterlife, giving him power over them.[22]\nThe spells of the Book of the Dead made use of several magical techniques which can also be seen in other areas of Egyptian life. A number of spells are for magical amulets, which would protect the deceased from harm. In addition to being represented on a Book of the Dead papyrus, these spells appeared on amulets wound into the wrappings of a mummy.[18] Everyday magic made use of amulets in huge numbers. Other items in direct contact with the body in the tomb, such as headrests, were also considered to have amuletic value.[23] A number of spells also refer to Egyptian beliefs about the magical healing power of saliva.[18]\nAlmost every Book of the Dead was unique, containing a different mixture of spells drawn from the corpus of texts available. For most of the history of the Book of the Dead there was no defined order or structure.[24] In fact, until Paul Barguet's 1967 \"pioneering study\" of common themes between texts,[25] Egyptologists concluded there was no internal structure at all.[26] It is only from the Saite period (26th dynasty) onwards that there is a defined order.[27]\nChapters 130\u2013189 Having been vindicated, the deceased assumes power in the universe as one of the gods. This section also includes assorted chapters on protective amulets, provision of food, and important places.[26]\nEgyptian concepts of death and afterlife\nFile:Ba bird.svg\nA depiction of the ba, an element of the soul\nOne aspect of death was the disintegration of the various kheperu, or modes of existence.[28] Funerary rituals served to re-integrate these different aspects of being. Mummification served to preserve and transform the physical body into sah, an idealised form with divine aspects;[29] the Book of the Dead contained spells aimed at preserving the body of the deceased, which may have been recited during the process of mummification.[30] The heart, which was regarded as the aspect of being which included intelligence and memory, was also protected with spells, and in case anything happened to the physical heart, it was common to bury jewelled heart scarabs with a body to provide a replacement. The ka, or life-force, remained in the tomb with the dead body, and required sustenance from offerings of food, water and incense. In case priests or relatives failed to provide these offerings, Spell 105 ensured the ka was satisfied.[31] The name of the dead person, which constituted their individuality and was required for their continued existence, was written in many places throughout the Book, and spell 25 ensured the deceased would remember their own name.[32] The ba was a free-ranging spirit aspect of the deceased. It was the ba, depicted as a human-headed bird, which could \"go forth by day\" from the tomb into the world; spells 61 and 89 acted to preserve it.[33] Finally, the shut, or shadow of the deceased, was preserved by spells 91, 92 and 188.[34] If all these aspects of the person could be variously preserved, remembered, and satiated, then the dead person would live on in the form of an akh. An akh was a blessed spirit with magical powers who would dwell among the gods.[35]\nThe nature of the afterlife which the dead person enjoyed is difficult to define, because of the differing traditions within Ancient Egyptian religion. In the Book of the Dead, the dead were taken into the presence of the god Osiris, who was confined to the subterranean Duat. There are also spells to enable the ba or akh of the dead to join Ra as he travelled the sky in his sun-barque, and help him fight off Apep.[36] As well as joining the Gods, the Book of the Dead also depicts the dead living on in the 'Field of Reeds', a paradisiac likeness of the real world.[37] The Field of Reeds is depicted as a lush, plentiful version of the Egypt of the living. There are fields, crops, oxen, people and waterways. The deceased person is shown encountering the Great Ennead, a group of gods, as well as his or her own parents. While the depiction of the Field of Reeds is pleasant and plentiful, it is also clear that manual labour is required. For this reason burials included a number of statuettes named shabti, or later ushebti. These statuettes were inscribed with a spell, also included in the Book of the Dead, requiring them to undertake any manual labour that might be the owner's duty in the afterlife.[38] It is also clear that the dead not only went to a place where the gods lived, but that they acquired divine characteristics themselves. In many occasions, the deceased is mentioned as \"The Osiris - [Name]\" in the Book of the Dead.\nFile:Bookofthedead-144145.jpg\nTwo 'gate spells'. On the top register, Ani and his wife face the 'seven gates of the House of Osiris'. Below, they encounter ten of the 21 'mysterious portals of the House of Osiris in the Field of Reeds'. All are guarded by unpleasant protectors.[39]\nThe path to the afterlife as laid out in the Book of the Dead was a difficult one. The deceased was required to pass a series of gates, caverns and mounds guarded by supernatural creatures.[40] These terrifying entities were armed with enormous knives and are illustrated in grotesque forms, typically as human figures with the heads of animals or combinations of different ferocious beasts. Their names\u2014for instance, \"He who lives on snakes\" or \"He who dances in blood\"\u2014are equally grotesque. These creatures had to be pacified by reciting the appropriate spells included in the Book of the Dead; once pacified they posed no further threat, and could even extend their protection to the dead person.[41] Another breed of supernatural creatures was 'slaughterers' who killed the unrighteous on behalf of Osiris; the Book of the Dead equipped its owner to escape their attentions.[42] As well as these supernatural entities, there were also threats from natural or supernatural animals, including crocodiles, snakes, and beetles.[43]\nFile:Sesostris' boook of the dead, Papyrusmuseum Wien.jpg\nThe Weighing of the Heart ritual, shown in the Book of the Dead of Sesostris\nIf all the obstacles of the Duat could be negotiated, the deceased would be judged in the \"Weighing of the Heart\" ritual, depicted in Spell 125. The deceased was led by the god Anubis into the presence of Osiris. There, the dead person swore that he had not committed any sin from a list of 42 sins,[44] reciting a text known as the \"Negative Confession\". Then the dead person's heart was weighed on a pair of scales, against the goddess Maat, who embodied truth and justice. Maat was often represented by an ostrich feather, the hieroglyphic sign for her name.[45] At this point, there was a risk that the deceased's heart would bear witness, owning up to sins committed in life; Spell 30B guarded against this eventuality. If the scales balanced, this meant the deceased had led a good life. Anubis would take them to Osiris and they would find their place in the afterlife, becoming maa-kheru, meaning \"vindicated\" or \"true of voice\".[46] If the heart was out of balance with Maat, then another fearsome beast called Ammit, the Devourer, stood ready to eat it and put the dead person's afterlife to an early and unpleasant end.[47]\nThis scene is remarkable not only for its vividness but as one of the few parts of the Book of the Dead with any explicit moral content. The judgement of the dead and the Negative Confession were a representation of the conventional moral code which governed Egyptian society. For every \"I have not...\" in the Negative Confession, it is possible to read an unexpressed \"Thou shalt not\".[48] While the Ten Commandments of Judeo-Christian ethics are rules of conduct laid down by a perceived divine revelation, the Negative Confession is more a divine enforcement of everyday morality.[49] Views differ among Egyptologists about how far the Negative Confession represents a moral absolute, with ethical purity being necessary for progress to the Afterlife. John Taylor points out the wording of Spells 30B and 125 suggests a pragmatic approach to morality; by preventing the heart from contradicting him with any inconvenient truths, it seems that the deceased could enter the afterlife even if their life had not been entirely pure.[47] Ogden Goelet says \"without an exemplary and moral existence, there was no hope for a successful afterlife\",[48] while Geraldine Pinch suggests that the Negative Confession is essentially similar to the spells protecting from demons, and that the success of the Weighing of the Heart depended on the mystical knowledge of the true names of the judges rather than on the deceased's moral behaviour.[50]\nProducing a Book of the Dead\nFile:PinedjemIIBookOfTheDead-BritishMuseum-August21-08.jpg\nPart of the Book of the Dead of Pinedjem II. The text is hieratic, except for hieroglyphics in the vignette. The use of red pigment, and the joins between papyrus sheets, are also visible.\nFile:Papyrus Ani curs hiero.jpg\nA close-up of the Papyrus of Ani, showing the cursive hieroglyphs of the text\nA Book of the Dead papyrus was produced to order by scribes. They were commissioned by people in preparation for their own funeral, or by the relatives of someone recently deceased. They were expensive items; one source gives the price of a Book of the Dead scroll as one deben of silver,[51] perhaps half the annual pay of a labourer.[52] Papyrus itself was evidently costly, as there are many instances of its re-use in everyday documents, creating palimpsests. In one case, a Book of the Dead was written on second-hand papyrus.[53]\nMost owners of the Book of the Dead were evidently part of the social elite; they were initially reserved for the royal family, but later papyri are found in the tombs of scribes, priests and officials. Most owners were men, and generally the vignettes included the owner's wife as well. Towards the beginning of the history of the Book of the Dead, there are roughly 10 copies belonging to men for every one for a woman. However, during the Third Intermediate Period, 2/3 were for women; and women owned roughly a third of the hieratic paypri from the Late and Ptolemaic Periods.[54]\nThe dimensions of a Book of the Dead could vary widely; the longest is 40m long while some are as short as 1m. They are composed of sheets of papyrus joined together, the individual papyri varying in width from 15 cm to 45 cm. The scribes working on Book of the Dead papyri took more care over their work than those working on more mundane texts; care was taken to frame the text within margins, and to avoid writing on the joints between sheets. The words peret em heru, or 'coming forth by day' sometimes appear on the reverse of the outer margin, perhaps acting as a label.[53]\nBooks were often prefabricated in funerary workshops, with spaces being left for the name of the deceased to be written in later.[55] For instance, in the Papyrus of Ani, the name \"Ani\" appears at the top or bottom of a column, or immediately following a rubric introducing him as the speaker of a block of text; the name appears in a different handwriting to the rest of the manuscript, and in some places is mis-spelt or omitted entirely.[52]\nThe text of a New Kingdom Book of the Dead was typically written in cursive hieroglyphs, most often from left to right, but also sometimes from right to left. The hieroglyphs were in columns, which were separated by black lines - a similar arrangement to that used when hieroglyphs were carved on tomb walls or monuments. Illustrations were put in frames above, below, or between the columns of text. The largest illustrations took up a full page of papyrus.[56]\nFrom the 21st Dynasty onward, more copies of the Book of the Dead are found in hieratic script. The calligraphy is similar to that of other hieratic manuscripts of the New Kingdom; the text is written in horizontal lines across wide columns (often the column size corresponds to the size of the papyrus sheets of which a scroll is made up). Occasionally a hieratic Book of the Dead contains captions in hieroglyphic.\nThe text of a Book of the Dead was written in both black and red ink, regardless of whether it was in hieroglyphic or hieratic script. Most of the text was in black, with red used for the titles of spells, opening and closing sections of spells, the instructions to perform spells correctly in rituals, and also for the names of dangerous creatures such as the demon Apep.[57] The black ink used was based on carbon, and the red ink on ochre, in both cases mixed with water.[58]\nThe style and nature of the vignettes used to illustrate a Book of the Dead varies widely. Some contain lavish colour illustrations, even making use of gold leaf. Others contain only line drawings, or one simple illustration at the opening.[59]\nBook of the Dead papyri were often the work of several different scribes and artists whose work was literally pasted together.[53] It is usually possible to identify the style of more than one scribe used on a given manuscript, even when the manuscript is a shorter one.[60] The text and illustrations were produced by different scribes; there are a number of Books where the text was completed but the illustrations were left empty.[61]\nFile:Book of the Dead of the Goldworker of Amun, Sobekmose, Mummy Chamber, 31.1777e.jpg\nBook of the Dead of the Goldworker of Amun, Sobekmose, 31.1777e, Brooklyn Museum\nDiscovery, translation, interpretation and preservation\nFile:Carl Richard Lepsius (1810-1884).jpg\nKarl Richard Lepsius, first translator of a complete Book of the Dead manuscript\nThe existence of the Book of the Dead was known as early as the Middle Ages, well before its contents could be understood. Since it was found in tombs, it was evidently a document of a religious nature, and this led to the widespread misapprehension that the Book of the Dead was the equivalent of a Bible or Qu'ran.[62] They didn't recognize them as a funerary ritual.[63]\nIn 1842 Karl Richard Lepsius published a translation of a manuscript dated to the Ptolemaic era and coined the name \"Book of The Dead\". He also introduced the spell numbering system which is still in use, identifying 165 different spells.[15] Lepsius promoted the idea of a comparative edition of the Book of the Dead, drawing on all relevant manuscripts. This project was undertaken by \u00c9douard Naville, starting in 1875 and completed in 1886, producing a three-volume work including a selection of vignettes for every one of the 186 spells he worked with, the more significant variations of the text for every spell, and commentary. In 1867 Samuel Birch of the British Museum published the first extensive English translation.[64] In 1876 he published a photographic copy of the Papyrus of Nebseny.[65]\nThe work of E. A. Wallis Budge, Birch's successor at the British Museum, is still in wide circulation \u2013 including both his hieroglyphic editions and his English translations of the Papyrus of Ani, though the latter are now considered inaccurate and out-of-date.[66] More recent translations in English have been published by T. G. Allen (1974) and Raymond O. Faulkner (1972).[67] As more work has been done on the Book of the Dead, more spells have been identified, and the total now stands at 192.[15]\nIn the 1970s, Ursula R\u00f6\u00dfler-K\u00f6hler at the University of Bonn began a working group to develop the history of Book of Dead texts. This later received sponsorship from the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia and the German Research Foundation, in 2004 coming under the auspices of the German Academies of Sciences and Arts. Today the Book of the Dead Project, as it is called, maintains a database of documentation and photography covering 80% of extant copies and fragments from the corpus of Book of the Dead texts, and provides current services to Egyptologists.[68] It is housed at the University of Bonn, with much material available online.[69] Affiliated scholars are authoring a series of monograph studies, the Studien zum Alt\u00e4gyptischen Totenbuch, alongside a series that publishes the manuscripts themselves, Handschriften des Alt\u00e4gyptischen Totenbuches.[70] Both are in print by Harrassowitz Verlag. Orientverlag has released another series of related monographs, Totenbuchtexte, focused on analysis, synoptic comparison, and textual criticism.\nResearch work on the Book of the Dead has always posed technical difficulties thanks to the need to copy very long hieroglyphic texts. Initially, these were copied out by hand, with the assistance either of tracing paper or a camera lucida. In the mid-19th century, hieroglyphic fonts became available and made lithographic reproduction of manuscripts more feasible. In the present day, hieroglyphics can be rendered in desktop publishing software and this, combined with digital print technology, means that the costs of publishing a Book of the Dead may be considerably reduced. However, a very large amount of the source material in museums around the world remains unpublished.[71]\nFile:Sheet from a Book of the Dead, ca. 1075-945 B.C.E., 37.1699E.jpg\nSheet from a Book of the Dead, c. 1075 - 945 BCE, 37.1699E, Brooklyn Museum\nc. 3150 BCE - First preserved hieroglyphs, on small labels in the tomb of a king buried (in tomb U-j) at Abydos\nc. 3000 BCE - The beginning of the numbered dynasties of kings of ancient Egypt\n'c. 2345 BCE - First royal pyramid, of King Unas, to contain the Pyramid Texts, carved precursors (intended only for the king) to the funerary literature from which the Book of the Dead ultimately developed\nc. 2100 BCE - First Coffin Texts, developed from the Pyramid Texts and for a time painted on the coffins of commoners.

        "title": "Rhode Island Heritage Hall of Fame: Dr. John J. McLaughlin, Inducted 2005",
        "raw_content": "Dr. John J. McLaughlin\nThe marvelous story of Rhode Island's own John Joseph McLaughlin leads one through more twists and turns than a Rocky Point roller coaster. Born on March 29, 1927 to Augustus and Eva (Turcotte) McLaughlin, he grew up in the neighborhoods of Edgewood and Mount Pleasant. His earliest run at greatness included stints as a pharmacy soda jerk, Triggs greenskeeper and caddy, Narragansett Park racetrack money-runner and a stock boy at Shepard's department store.\nAfter successfully negotiating Blessed Sacrament Elementary School and LaSalle Academy, John entered the seminary, was ordained a Jesuit priest in 1960, obtained Master's degree in Philosophy and English from Boston College, and ultimately received a doctorate in Communications from Columbia University.\nHe put his academic training to good use, teaching at Fairfield Prep and Fairfield University and serving associate editor of America magazine, a Jesuit publication. In a stunning change of direction, John \u201ctiptoed\u201d onto the political scene in 1970 by brashly challenging the iconic Senator John Pastore in McLaughlin's very first, and Pastore's very last, political campaign.\nGarnering almost one-third of the vote, McLaughlin soon became a fixture on the national political stage.&nbsp;He was quickly recruited by the Nixon administration and became a presidential speechwriter, a stint which continued into the Ford White House. With his forces deploying in other theaters of action, he sought and received release of his priestly commitments in 1975.\nIn his new status, he blitzed the national lecture circuit, seized a position as the Washington editor of the National Review, mustered up a public relations firm, and launched his immediately successful television enterprise--The McLaughlin Group.\nHard-hitting, provocative, innovative, controversial, and always entertaining, McLaughlin's trend-setting show took the national television industry by storm. Imitated but never equaled, John McLaughlin pioneered and mastered the panel/debate format that in 2015 will be approaching its 35th year of unbridled popularity.\nIncubation in little Rhode Island most certainly did not produce a timid Hall-of-Famer. Ronald Reagan once observed, \"The United States needs a tax increase like John McLaughlin needs assertiveness training.\" John McLaughlin is indeed a Rhode Island original; our own swashbuckler on loan to the nation.",

        "raw_content": "70th Tank Battalion World War II History: Utah Beach, Normandy Region, France - June 1944\nPhoto 1 shows duplex drive (DD) tanks (amphibious tanks equipped with propellers) and canvas water skirts for floatation. This photo was taken in England prior to D-Day. The plan was to launch a 30 ton Sherman tank from a landing ship and drive it toward the shore like a watercraft. There was little freeboard (height above the water line) with these canvas skirts and vehicles were easily swamped and sunk. The driver of the tank sat in his normal seat while the rest of the crew sat on top of the tank to bail out in case it sank. Many 70th Tankers were skeptical of the integrity of the water skirts and spent their own money to reinforce the fabric. Most of the 70th tanks that were launched made it to shore because of the relatively calm seas, compared to Omaha Beach where large waves swamped most of the DD tanks.\nPhoto 2 shows 70th Tank Battalion DD Tanks loading landing craft just prior to D-Day. Care had to be taken to avoid damage to the relatively fragile skirts.\nPhoto 3 shows DD tanks loaded on an LCT, pulling away from the shore (D-Day-1)\nHeading toward Utah Beach on an LST (Photo 4): this is probably service company of the 70th Tank Battalion, which arrived at Utah Beach on approximately June 15, 1944. The LST is loaded with ammunition and fuel trucks.\nLanding plan at Utah Beach (Photo 5). The red arrow points to one of the beach exits, exit 2. The green arrow points to a privately owned villa that is often seen in photos of the beach landing.\nPhoto 6 was taken by Captain Taynton approaching what appears to be exit 2. The date is June 15, 1944. Notice the established beachhead with barrage balloons along the coast.\nPhoto 7 shows the private villa (green arrow Photo 5) in March 2010.\nPhoto 8 shows exit 2 in March 2010.\nPhoto 9 shows transport ships viewed from Utah beach in the vicinity of exit 2.\nPhoto 10 shows sunken ships viewed from approximately the same position on Utah beach, March 2010. At least one of the sunken ships in Photo 10 appears in Photo 9.\nUtah Beach June 15, 1944, during Captain Taynton's detachment's arrival at Normandy.\nLST 523 (Photo 11) struck a mine on June 19, 1944 and sank. It was carrying 20 Sherman Tanks and is now a popular diving site.\nPhotos 12 and 13 show what can happen if the vehicle's engine quits while landing, and the tide comes in.\nPhoto 14 shows an M4 Sherman named Cannon Ball. This tank is from Company C of the 70th Tank Battalion.

        "raw_content": "I decided to do a USS-model run with the values in the DNA-uptake matrix increased five-fold, thinking this meant that drive favouring uptake sequences would be much stronger. This should have meant that, when beginning with a random sequence, there would initially be very few fragments that had sufficiently high scores to pass the probability filter and recombine with the genome. So I was surprised when the frequency of recombination at the beginning of the run looked to be about the same as with the normal matrix.\nBut then I remembered that one nice feature of the latest version of the model is that it uses whatever values are in the DNA-uptake matrix to calculate an appropriate value for the recombination probability filter, always equal to the score earned by a single site that perfectly matches the matrix-specified preferences. This is good under some circumstances, but in the present case it entirely defeats what I was trying to do.\nSo I guess it's time to tweak the model one more time, introducing a coefficient by which the probability filter can be multiplied. Ideally we'd like to be able to sometimes have this coefficient change during the run, as this would allow us to simulate evolution of the uptake specificity itself. I'm confident that I can introduce a constant coefficient (read in with the other run settings); I wonder if I can easily make it a variable...",

        "title": "Receiving Communion",
        "raw_content": "Communion in the Hand:\nA refusal to face reality?\nThe issue of Communion in the hand was the key issue that brought me towards the traditionalist movement from my Novus Ordo upbringing. My increasing faith in the Real Presence of my Lord in the Blessed Sacrament brought me into conflict with the practice of distributing Communion in the hand, as opposed to the traditional practice of the priest placing the host directly on the tongue of the communicant. Reading a article recently, \"Communion in the Hand - Symbol as Contradiction\" by Father P. Meuli in the December issue of Christian Order, finally provided me with theological argument against the practice which I will now present.\nSymbolically, receiving anything in the hand denotes a certain power over that object. If I buy a house or car, the keys are given to me in the hand to indicate that I now have ownership over this object, and can - in effect - do what I like with it. I can drive the car to work, or drive it over a cliff if I want to. I can live in the house, possibly turning it into a home for my family, or I could raise it to the ground. The keys are in my hands now, I am entrusted to its care, I have the authority relating to the object, I have power over it.\nReceiving Communion in the hand raises another issue, as the substance is different from the accidents (what it actually *is* rather than what it appears to be). The substance of the Communion host is the substantial and supernatural Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. This is the actual reality of the host. The Real Presence of our Lord in the Eucharist is as real as you or me being present in our bodies. The accidents of the host is unleavened bread. Although the host is in reality the Body of Christ, God incarnate, what we can see, touch and taste is that of a simple bread wafer.\nTherefore, receiving Communion in the hand indicates a loss of reality. The action of taking the host into one's hand symbolises, as above, that the communicant has power over that host. In practice, the communicant could consume, as he is meant to, the host, but then again he could also drop the host on the floor, trample on it, crumble it, or even take it away to some Satanic ritual (which seems far-fetched, but believe me, it does happen). But, in *reality*, the communicant has absolutely no power at all over the actual substance of the host, i.e. Christ Himself. Christ, the second person of the Trinity, has absolute power over us all, we were all, without exception, created through Him, and were redeemed by Him by His eternal sacrifice. By receiving Communion, we are indicating a desire to come into greater union with Him, possibly prefiguring our eternal destiny. Christ came down from heaven and was born like one of us in all things but sin, but He is still God, God almighty, all-present, all-powerful, all-knowing.\nChrist said \"apart from me you can do nothing\" (John 15:5). Communion in the hand says we have power over Him, dominance over His supernatural and substantial presence, able to perform any deed we like. However, in reality the exact opposite is true. Without Christ we can do nothing, He has power over us, He is the One who can perform any deed when dealing with us, channelled by His infinite love for us. He doesn't belong to us, we belong to Him. He doesn't become part of our body, but we become part of His Body, the Mystical Body of Christ. The external symbolism of Communion in the hand contradicts entirely God's internal reality. The communicant may well still believe in the Real Presence (although surveys suggest most Catholics do not), but this belief is in spite of him taking Communion in the hand, it is not helped by it.\n\"Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven\"\nThe age-old practice of receiving Communion on the tongue, and also when kneeling, symbolises our total reliance on Christ, being fed by Him through the ministry of the priest. Christ told us to become like little children (Matt 18:3), little children do not feed themselves, but are fed. Receiving Communion in the hand is not receiving Communion, it is giving yourself Communion. You are feeding yourself like a grown-up, someone who can stand on their own two feet and can manage for themselves. However, Christ asks that we should rely totally upon Him, to open our lives up completely and let Him run things. Becoming self-reliant is following the foot-steps of Adam, not our Lord. We must submit to the will of God, through the example of our Lord in the garden of Gethsemane: \"Father, if thou art willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.\" (Luke 22:42) To receive on the tongue is to receive like a little child, and it symbolises our faith in the total power of our Lord and God, and our desire to become part of Him now and eternally.",

        "raw_content": "JUICE's primary target: Ganymede\nOut of Jupiter's nearly 70 moons, the four Galilean satellites\u2014Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto\u2014stand out as distinctive planetary worlds in their own right. They contain more than 99% of the mass orbiting around Jupiter, are among the largest satellites in the Solar System, and have remarkable geologies. JUICE will study the three icy bodies\u2014Europa, Ganymede and Callisto\u2014to find out more about these potentially habitable environments.\nJupiter and Ganymede. Credit: NASA, ESA and E. Karkoschka (University of Arizona) Ganymede.\nGanymede is the primary scientific target of the mission. With a diameter of about 5260 km, larger than that of Pluto and Mercury, Ganymede tops the Solar-System moons' size chart. It is the seventh moon from the gas giant (and the third among the Galilean satellites) and orbits Jupiter at a distance of more than 1 million kilometres. Researchers believe there is tidal heating on Ganymede, although to a much smaller degree than on Io and Europa. This heat could drive some tectonic activity and provide one of the necessary conditions for life to emerge: a source of energy.\nMysterious magnetic field\nOne of Ganymede's most remarkable features is its intrinsic magnetic field, discovered by the Galileo mission. No other moon in the Solar System is known to have one, and only two other solid bodies (Mercury and the Earth) generate magnetic dipole fields. Ganymede's miniature magnetosphere lies within Jupiter's much larger magnetosphere, with complex interactions happening between the two. JUICE aims to study these interactions in detail. This includes looking into how particles in the near-Ganymede space environment affect the composition of the moon's surface, how auroras develop on the satellite, and how Ganymede's magnetic field influences auroras on Jupiter. To do this, some of the mission's instruments will measure the moon's magnetic field, both its intrinsic component and that induced by Jupiter. Other instruments will characterise the plasma environment around the moon, studying the particles in it, and will investigate the outer layers of the moon's thin atmosphere.\nIllustration of aurorae on Ganymede. Credit: NASA, ESA, and G. Bacon (STScI)\nHidden ocean\nThe Galileo spacecraft's measurements of Ganymede's magnetic field suggested there could be a subsurface layer of salt water, which unlike ice is a good conductor of electricity. However, this evidence was not conclusive because of the complex interactions between the magnetic fields of Jupiter and Ganymede. More recent observations of Ganymede's auroras made with the Hubble Space Telescope further hinted at the existence of the under-ice ocean. As such, scientists now have firm evidence that Ganymede, like Europa, conceals an ocean under its icy shell, one that may contain more water than all surface water on Earth combined.\nHowever, we still don't know at what depth this ocean starts, how far down it extends, and how it interacts with both the deep interior of Ganymede and the icy crust above it. Finding out more about Ganymede's liquid layer, including its composition and conductivity, is a main objective of JUICE since the ocean might be habitable.\nThe mission's instruments will make detailed measurements of Ganymede's magnetic field and determine the electric currents at the moon to constrain the extent and conductivity of its subsurface ocean. JUICE will also use other techniques to find out the size of the liquid layer and the icy crust. These include detailed measurements of the moon's rotation rate, and well as a precise determination of Ganymede's gravity field, and of shape and surface changes at the moon due to Jupiter's tidal influence.\nA complex core\nScientists hope these measurements will help them find out more about the composition and interior structure of Ganymede. With a mass about half of Mercury's and a diameter greater than that planet's, the moon has a relatively low density, indicating that it's made up of both rocks and ices. In addition, the magnetic-field data from Galileo points to the existence of a liquid, iron-rich core. JUICE will reveal more about the thickness of the various layers in the moon's interior and their composition, which will improve our understanding of how the moon evolved and how it was able to acquire its differentiated structure. JUICE's measurements will also help us find out more about how Ganymede's core is able to generate and maintain a magnetic field.\nAnother of JUICE's objectives is to explore and characterise Ganymede's icy crust, which will be a completely new science endeavour. The mission will use an ice-penetrating radar to probe the moon's subsurface down to a depth of about 9 km. The aim is to determine the crust's minimum thickness, possibly detect liquid water in the shallow subsurface, and explore the moon's tectonic features and geological evolution.\nIn addition to the subsurface studies, the mission will explore the very top of the icy shell. Ganymede's surface has very old, dark, and densely-cratered regions (like most of Callisto), as well as lighter, younger, grooved regions (more similar to Europa's surface). The intricate pattern of grooves and ridges on Ganymede is thought to be due to tectonic activity, though icy volcanism could also have played a role in the formation of these regions. JUICE will combine stereo imaging and laser altimetry to investigate the moon's surface and determine the geological processes that helped shape it. The spacecraft will also carry out high-resolution investigations of selected regions on Ganymede's surface to better understand the local geology.\nGanymede global geologic map and global image mosaic. Credit: USGS Astrogeology Science Center/Wheaton/NASA/JPL-Caltech\nSearching for biosignatures\nThis high-resolution mapping of the surface can help constrain the moon's composition and mineralogy, and assess how habitable Ganymede could be by searching for biosignatures. Observations at various wavelengths will allow astronomers to study non-water-ice material to determine the distribution of biologically essential elements\u2014such as carbon or oxygen\u2014and other important elements\u2014such as magnesium and iron\u2014on the planetary body. The mission will also shed light on the origin and evolution of the materials on the surface by exploring which substances form at Ganymede and which are brought in from the plasma environment around the moon.\nTo study Ganymede in detail, JUICE will enter orbit around it, becoming the first spacecraft to orbit a moon in the outer Solar System. The dedicated orbital tour is expected to last about eight months and will be the final stage of the mission.",

        "raw_content": "Archaeologists Have Removed And Analysed The Black Egyptian Sarcophagus Contents\nArchaeologists have had a closer look at the bones inside that mysterious black granite sarcophagus, and now have a better idea about who was inside. The three skeletons belonged to two men and a woman, who lived during the early Ptolemaic period.\nDiscovered in Alexandria in July, the sarcophagus \u2013 a stone receptacle for the interment of the dead \u2013 was the biggest ever found in the region, coming in at 30 tons (27 tonnes). The absence of inscriptions or markings fueled global speculation as to the inhabitant.\nSadly, when the sarcophagus was open, it was in disarray. Foul sewer liquid had leaked in, damaging the three mummies inside. And, again, nothing was discovered to identify those bones, although the absence of any cartouche identifiers seemed to rule out royalty.\nInstead, the three bodies were thought to be those of military officers. The new identification throws a spanner in that explanation, since the ancient Egyptian military did not typically include women (with the rare exception of a royal military leader).\n(Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities)\nSo who were they? That\u2019s still unclear, but their bones tell a little more about them, the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities revealed in an announcement.\nThe woman was between 20 and 25 years old, and up to 164 centimetres tall. Both the men were older; the first was between 35 and 39 years of age, standing up to 165.5 centimetres tall, and the second was between 40 and 44 years old, and up to 184.5 centimetres tall.\nThis last skeleton \u2013 the older male \u2013 had something interesting. A small hole, under an inch in diameter, that had clearly healed, indicating that the man had lived for a long time with it.\nThis was probably the result of a practice called trepanation \u2013 the deliberate drilling of a hole in the skull to treat a wide range of ailments, including headaches, fractures, epilepsy and hypertension.\n\u201cThis surgery is the oldest surgical intervention ever known since pre-history but was rare in Egypt,\u201d explained Zeinab Hashish, Director of the Department of Skeleton Remains Studies at the Ministry of Antiquities.\nOnly a few skulls from ancient Egypt have ever been found with trepanation holes.\nThe archaeologists also believe that the bodies were interred at separate times, since the skeletons were found stacked on top of each other.\nThere wasn\u2019t much in the way of grave goods, but three gold panels survived, delicately inscribed with images. Archaeologists will be examining these to see if their meaning can be deciphered.\nAs for the red liquid found in the sarcophagus, it\u2019s probably sewer water mixed with the decomposed and disintegrated mummy wrappings, the researchers said. Anyone still feel like taking a sip?\nFurther analysis of the bones will be conducted, including CT scans, and DNA tests to determine if the bodies were members of the same family.",

        "raw_content": "Artificial Intelligence to add $182 billion to UAE Economy by 2035, Accenture Research Shows\nArtificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to boost economic growth in the UAE by 1.6 percentage points and add $182 billion to the national economy by 2035, according to a recent report by Accenture.\nThe report looked at 15 industries in the UAE and 13 in Saudi Arabia to determine the potential sector-specific impact of AI on the economies of the Middle East. The research found that in the UAE, AI will have the greatest impact on the financial services, healthcare, and transport and storage industries, with increases of $37 billion, $22 billion and $19 billion, respectively, in their annual gross value added (GVA), which measures the output value of all goods and services in a sector.\nEven the labour-intensive sectors of education and construction will see increases of $6 billion and $8 billion, respectively, in their GVA over the same period, with AI enabling people to be more productive, thus leading to gains in profitability.\nThe effects of AI will also be felt in Saudi Arabia, where it is expected to increase GVA by $215 billion. Accenture research has shown that, globally, AI could boost profitability by an average of 38%, leading to an economic boost of $14 trillion by 2035.\n\u201cThe level of growth that AI stands to bring to the UAE\u2019s economy is unparalleled,\u201d said Amr El Saadani, managing director of Accenture\u2019s Financial Services practice in the Middle East and Turkey. \u201cThe nation\u2019s leaders already understand the impact of this powerful technology, evidenced by the appointment of the first Minister of AI last year.\n\u201cWhile AI-led growth will be felt across a wide variety of industries, the financial services sector has the most to gain \u2014 which isn\u2019t surprising, given that many of its jobs can be significantly augmented with AI and machine learning. In addition, Accenture reports have already shown that banking executives globally are taking action to transform their businesses through the use of AI.\u201d\nThe report identifies five key strategies for policy makers to consider when looking to implement AI: growing the local talent pipeline using AI; advocating for a code of ethics for AI; becoming the global testbed for social AI; preparing the next generation of workers for the AI future; and minimising the impact of labour market dislocation.\nTanzania:Why Bunge Committee Is Sceptical On Tourism Vat",

        "title": "Senior Citizens Drink Up! Moderate Alcohol Leads to Better Memory",
        "raw_content": "Oct. 23, 2014 \u2013 If you are a senior age 60 or older and do not have dementia, new research supports previous studies that have found moderate alcohol consumption improves your ability to recall memories of events \u2013 episodic memory.\nModerate alcohol consumption was also linked with a larger volume in the hippocampus, a brain region critical for episodic memory. The relationship between light alcohol consumption and episodic memory goes away if hippocampal volume is factored in, providing new evidence that hippocampal functioning is the critical factor in these improvements.\nThe researchers note that the amount of alcohol consumption had no impact on executive function or overall mental ability.\nThese findings by researchers from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, University of Kentucky, and University of Maryland are detailed in the American Journal of Alzheimer\u2019s Disease and Other Dementias.\nCan Stimulating Curiosity Bring Aging Memories Back to Life?\nNew research says it's easier to learn if you are interested and this curiosity stimulates the brain\u2019s hippocampus where memories form\nBased on materials from Cell Press\nFish Oil May Help Protect Alcohol Abusers from Dementia\nUp to 90% less inflammation, death in brain cells of drinkers after exposure to omega-3 DHA\nThis study used data from more than 660 patients in the Framingham Heart Study Offspring Cohort. These patients completed surveys on their alcohol consumption and demographics, a battery of neuropsychological assessments, the presence or absence of the genetic Alzheimer\u2019s disease risk factor APOE e4 and MRIs of their brains.\nFindings from animal studies suggest that moderate alcohol consumption may contribute to preserved hippocampal volume by promoting generation of new nerve cells in the hippocampus. In addition, exposing the brain to moderate amounts of alcohol may increase the release of brain chemicals involved with cognitive, or information processing, functions.\n\u201cThere were no significant differences in cognitive functioning and regional brain volumes during late life according to reported midlife alcohol consumption status,\u201d said lead author Brian Downer, postdoctoral fellow at UTMB Sealy Center on Aging.\n\u201cThis may be due to the fact that adults who are able to continue consuming alcohol into old age are healthier, and therefore have higher cognition and larger regional brain volumes, than people who had to decrease their alcohol consumption due to unfavorable health outcomes.\u201d\nAlthough the potential benefits of light to moderate alcohol consumption to cognitive learning and memory later in life have been consistently reported, extended periods of abusing alcohol, often defined as having five or more alcoholic beverages during a single drinking occasion is known to be harmful to the brain.\nOther members of this research team include Yang Jiang and David Fardo from the University of Kentucky and Faika Zanjani from the University of Maryland.",

        "title": "SEVASTOPOL.ORG - Southern Coast of Crimea : Livadia",
        "raw_content": "Sevastopol.org\nSince 1860 up to 1917 the Livadia Estate was one of the most preferable residences of Alexander II, Alexander III and Nicholas II, and members of their families. The calm landscape of this part of the Southern Coast of the Crimea, spreading over the slope of Mount Moghabi, facing Yalta, fully justifies its name.\nThe Livadia Estate was bought by the crown for Alexander II (for the climatic treatment of his wife, Empress Maria Alexandrovna) and by the Emperor's Decree was presented to her as a gift, and was under her administration.\nThe first owner of the Livadia Estate, Empress Maria Alexandrovna, was an intelligent woman and a highly educated person. As a child, she was simply brought up and early evinced love for music and literature. She married the Crown Prince Alexander Nikolayevich in 1841 and bore him six sons and two daughters. Up to the moment of her husband's accession in 1855 no one ever imagined that he would be known to posterity as a great reformer. The Empress understood her husband and gave him her support in the desire to revive Russia.\nIn 1861 the august family came to Livadia. The Crimea fascinated the Empress, Livadia in particular. They saw the sights of Yalta and the region, took a keen interest in the mode of life of the natives, attended a wedding ceremony in a Tartar (in Greek means \"meadow\" or \"glade\"). Tr. village and a divine service in a Greek Church, met and spoke to the ordinary people. In short, they were imbued with new unusual impressions. It was decided to replenish the estate and the task was assigned to the famous St. Petersburg architect Ippolite Monighetti.\nDuring a period of four years (1862-1866) the architect, collaborating with the Gardener Clement Hekkel, created the magnificent palace-cum-garden ensemble, comprising various buildings serene and majestic in their radiant whiteness contrasting the greenery of the park. Time has not spared the Grand and Lesser Imperial Palaces, the Ladies-in-Waiting's House. The Suite House and the Conservatory were frequently renovated and altered, losing their original appearance. There are but a few buildings that have survived untouched - the Gardener's House, the Stables, several fountains and the Turkish Summer-House, a symbol of Livadia. And the Church of the Exaltation of the Cross (Ippolite Monighetti, architect) stands on an elevation, being in plan a typical Byzantine-style church, i. e., a Greek cross inscribed in a square.\nArriving in the Crimea in 1867, the Empress highly estimated the immense attraction of the palace, its sides bristling with pine-clover, an exceedingly picturesque and romantic park sloping down to the shore, the sea with its even murmur, cool breeze and endless horizon. Now Maria Alexandrovna longed to go south to stay in her \"sweet Livadia\" till late autumn and not only because of her doctors' orders. It is quite natural that when the Emperor lived in Livadia, the estate turned into a centre of political and cultural life of Russia. Ministers, diplomats and highly-honoured foreign guests came to meet the Emperor. Famous artists, writers, actors who were born to no titles, but achieved fame by their own energy and their own genius, were guests of the august family. In July, 1867, on a fine Crimean morning the beautiful side-wheel steamship Quaker City steamed down to the foot of the Yalta harbour and anchored.\n\"Among our excursionists\", as Mark Twain (pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens) put it in his The Innocents Abroad, were ministers of the Gospel, doctors, military and naval officers with sound titles, \"were an ample crop of 'Professors' of various kinds and a gentleman (Mark Twain - \u00c3\u00e3.) who had 'Commissioner of the United States of America to Europe, Asia and Africa' after his name\". The Americans were invited to the Livadia Estate to pay the Emperor of Russia a visit. A dinner was served on the centre-tables in the Reception Room and the verandas of the Grand Palace. The Russian nobility escorted them over the grounds and the illustrious host moved from place to place and helped to keep the conversation lively. To quote from Mark Twain's original, \"We have been in no country yet where we have been so kindly received and where we have felt that to be Americans was a sufficient visa for our passports... If you know Russia you know that was a wild stretch of hospitality.\"\nThe sickly Empress died in the summer of 1880 and a few weeks afterwards Alexander II was united in the morganatic marriage with Princess Yekaterina Mikhailovna Dolgorukaya-Yuriyevskaya, with whom he had had intimate relations. The autumn months they spent in Livadia were filled with quiet joy and happiness.",

        "raw_content": "For the last year I\u2019ve been dealing with well, a high risk pregnancy, a new baby and other stuff. During that time one of my publishers fell apart and I was oblivious. Now I\u2019m not one to bad mouth a publisher, but enough is enough.\nAspen Mountain Press has failed to provide me with royalty statements for the last year. I\u2019ve received exactly 2 checks since October 2010 and both were under $15 for seven books. I\u2019m sorry, but even if my books weren\u2019t selling on their site, they are on the third party vendor sites.\nAs of today most of the third party sites have taken down books from Aspen Mountain and their home site seems to be unavailable due to maintenance. Yeah right. I\u2019m hoping this is the demise of them so I can finally get my rights back and self-publish my seven books.\nI have made several attempts to contact the publisher via, email, phone, snail mail and certified letters. Said publisher has ignored all attempts.\nSo this blog today is to request that if any readers want to purchase my Aspen Mountain books \u2013 PLEASE DON\u2019T. Wait until the end of the year and you\u2019ll be able to get them for cheaper when I self-publish them!\nThe moral of this story is to stay current with your publishers and make sure you\u2019re getting statements and the money owed. I wish I wasn\u2019t so oblivious and discovered this far too late in the game. Maybe I wouldn\u2019t be battling to get my rights back.\nLabels: amber skyze, aspen mountain press, falling apart, publisher\nI'm looking forward to you reclaiming your books and giving them new life. Good luck with this. Regardless of a publisher's personal problems it's unforgivable they ignored you for a entire year.\nThanks Kat! I'm really hoping I can get the two Christmas stories out in time for the holiday.\nWhat a mess, Amber. I'm so sorry you're having to deal with it.\nThanks Tessie. It's not fun.\nBaron parker October 11, 2011 at 6:07 PM\nSorry...I removed the advertisement from Baron Parker who was advertising his escort service. That's a no-no, Baron...and you should know that.\nNow...where was I? Oh, yes...I wanted to say that you should look over your contracts from Aspen Mountain Press and then hit them with both barrels...since most attorney's don't know squat about publishing contracts, it might be good for you to ask a literary agent to help you get out of your contracts. They will probably charge you something for looking over your contracts, but it would be well worth it.\nThanks Fran. I've been over and over my contracts. I think they're going bankrupt so that would give me my rights back.\nWord of advice to writer's DO NOT SUB TO ASPEN MOUNTAIN....\nNina Pierce October 12, 2011 at 10:08 AM\nOh, sorry to hear you're going through that Amber. It's so scary when publishers fall apart. It's truly the authors who suffer. I hope everything works out and you get your rights back quickly.",

        "raw_content": "Tom Vek's excellent debut LP We Have Sound got it's US release last week - it was originally released on Tim Love Lee's hip, indie dance label Tummy Touch in April in the UK. He wrote and played everything on it, and it is a very cool slab of lo-fi, indie rock-meets-new wave-meets-bluesy stompers mixed with a little bit of everyting else. It pretty much defies categorisation. It's really good. I like his voice, I really like his guitar that riffs all over the place, and the elements of '80s pop - the beats, the funky popping bass parts - that he adds make it even more appealing to me. If You Want features the afore mentioned popping bass, tight beats and ghostly synth washes - it reminds me of a scruffier Colder, you know - machine funk with a human touch. If I Had Changed My Mind is the opposite end of Tom's sonic spectrum. It's a bluesy riff rocker with Iggy Pop-like vocals and lots of crusty, fuzzy distorted guitars. Great stuff that I highly recommend - if you like these tunes do the man a favor and buy the CD, out now on Startime International Records.\nFunky Friday - The Temptations\nAnd on the fifth day of psych-pop week, thou shalt get funky...\nWhat better way to cap psych-pop week @ SIART than with a couple of tunes from vocal greats The Temptations. A couple of years ago Motown issued a nice 2CD set called Psychedelic Soul. It's a compilation of tracks from their late '60s and early '70s records, when the band's music began to take on a harder edge and their lyrics began to address the Vietnam war and the plight of the black man in America. What you get is lots of songs about peace, love and harmony, and even a bit of hippy dippy sentiment - all without the hippy dippy music. This stuff is hard and musically adventurous, with some of the tracks running as long as 13 minutes. It combined the soul grooves of it's era with hard rock - \"acid rock\", if you will - sounds. There are some positively shredding guitar solos, and lots of distortion. Producer Norman Whitfield is a whiz at the mix, and the stereo effects are very cool - the amount of stuff buzzing between left and right can be dizzying. The vocals are as distinctive as ever, with each member getting their spot in the song to shine as well as harmonising beautifully. My folks had a few of their albums, and the one that I heard the most was 1970's Psychedelic Shack. This compilation is notable for a few previously unreleased tracks, including an extended version of the stellar title track Psychedelic Shack (Long Version). Over a crushing breakbeat, wah-wah guitar and clavinet collide with the \"incense in the air\" as the band runs us through the crazy happenings at the shack - \"this place will blow your mind\". A great, fuzzy party tune, from an album that also spawned the classics War and Friendship Train. 1972's All Directions album brought the hit single Funky Music Sho Nuff Turns Me On, a groovy strut that has a bit of that Earth, Wind and Fire vibe to it - tight rhythms, vocals and big horns. The funky music sho' nuff turns me on!\nPsych-Pop Week Day 4 - World Party\nCompeting for airtime with XTC's Skylarking in 1986 was Karl Wallinger's one man bad World Party, who released their debut album Private Revolution that same year. Fresh from his stint as a band member of celtic rockers The Waterboys, his album exploded with ideas and creativity and experiments that his old band would never have allowed him. It ranged from Dylan-esque folk rockers (including a cover of the man's All I Really Want To Do) to Beatlesque pop to Prince-ly funk jams, all mixed up with a dash of psychedelics. There was a great big hit single, Ship Of Fools. It was one of the most played records on my stereo that year. I loved it's genre mashing, it's \"peace, love and harmony\" lyrical vibe. It shares that same pastoral, lush feeling as the XTC record, and is quirky in it's own way too. Most of all I loved the song All Come True. It's a lovely mid tempo rocker that rides a big, chunky double bass riff. Throw in some gentle piano, spaced out keys, some Edge-y guitar riffs, some tablas, and a bit of fiddle and I'm drifting off. This tune isn't overtly psychedelic, but it has some very cool little embellishments, particularly the spaced out break in the middle with the historical names floating around in the mix. A lovely tune.\nPsych-Pop Week Day 3 - XTC\nThis week SIART is having psychedelic flashbacks...\nXTC released their eighth album, Skylarking, in 1986. They were fresh off of recording their gonzo-Nuggets-psych-rock classic 25 O'Clock as The Dukes Of Stratosfear. Their choice of producer was '70s spacepop prog rocker Todd Rundgren. The resulting album was a big change of sonic pace for the band. It largely eschewed the loud and fast angular riffing the band was best known for, and instead was lush and pastoral. Still full of the quirks of Andy and Colin's songs, but couched in such velvety smooth surroundings, with strings and nature sounds and all manner of studio trickery. This is easily the most \"produced\" album of the band's career, and because of that some people don't like it. Me, I'd rank it as a tie for first, or second best overall. It is an album of much psychedelic beauty - there's something going on in every nook and cranny on these songs. I will spare you the details, but I experienced this album several times in an altered state (ah, wanton youth), and was mind boggled by it's earthy richness. The album's opening two songs are pure sonic bliss for me, starting with the warm, summery buzzing of Andy Partridge's Summer's Cauldron. It begins with crickets and birds before woozy keyboards and a gentle beat kicks in. The song is a veritable hymn to the beauty of nature and warm summer days - \"trees are dancing drunk with nectar\". In my opinion it's one of his best tunes, and it never fails to makes me feel all warm and gooey. It segues ever so smoothly into Colin Moulding's Grass, a song filled with delicious double entendres - it's sexy and drug addled all at once, and so fantastically orchestrated. It all fades out with the same chirping birds and crickets that began it all. A couple of delightfully psychedelic baroque pop gems.\nPsych-Pop Week Day 2 - Eno & Byrne\nIn between recording sessions for the Talking Heads albums Fear Of Music & Remain In Light, producer Brian Eno and Head singer/songwriter David Byrne found the time to record an album of music that remains unique to this day - 1981's My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. It was a collection of \"cut and paste\" tracks, featuring various found sound recordings that the two tweaked and shaped over assorted grooves. I had just discovered the Talking Heads, and so I was intrigued by what I might find. It was unlike anything I had heard. Over fractured, repetitive grooves the two of them threw actual recordings of exorcisms (The Jezebel Spirit), preachers ranting and mystical Middle Eastern chanting and wailing. Musically it was just as adventurous, crossing rock with Afro pop with avant garde artiness and mixing pop, funk and Afro rhythms. It's remarkable to think, in this age of sampling technology on every computer, that this was all done on tape - literally cut and paste. Because the album was so ahead of it's time it still holds up amazingly well. It is also a heady, psychedelic experience. There are two songs on it that source Arabic music, in particular the vocals of Lebanese mountain singer Dunya Yusin, and they are my personal favorites on the record. Regiment is one hell of a funky ride, with the loose shuffle of Heads drummer Chris Frantz' beats and the popping riffs of bassist Busta Jones pinning down a buzzing, smoky melody - Yusin's wail transports me to some mystical place every time I hear it. The Carrier is even more mysterious and deep, a shifting, drone-y percussive piece of ambience. Once again Yusin's voice is the focal point, and it's a moving, melancholic performance. Beautiful, mysterious and psychedelic. A perfect blend.\nPsych-Pop Week Day 1 - Jerry Garcia\nThis week SIART is having psychedelic flashbacks. What better place to start than with...\nJerry Garcia was best known & loved as the lead singer and guitarist of hippy rockers The Grateful Dead. When I first moved back to the US in 1985 I was pretty much unaware of the band - they were not as big a draw in the UK. In 1986 I got a job as a canvasser for Greenpeace, and I met a whole new crowd of people - the \"Deadheads\". The incredibly loyal fanbase of the band was a trip to behold - such dedication and devotion. Some of them rabidly so, even to the point of being unwilling to give other music a chance. I wondered what could inspire it all, so I tried to join in. I went to a bunch of shows, was force fed bootlegs by some of my friends, and even bought a few used LPs. In the end I will admit to being a minor fan. I enjoy some of their music, but personally couldn't justify spending my money on seeing the band over and over again - out of 5 or 6 shows I think I got one good one. I went to see Garcia's solo band once, and found it a much more enjoyable experience than the Dead. They were a lot less jam band-y, and a lot funkier. I only own one Jarry Garcia album, 1972's Garcia, a fine record. It's got several tunes that are Dead classics - Deal, Sugaree and The Wheel were all staples of the band's shows. The Wheel starts of with a bit of jarring, discordant jangle before floating off into clouds of steel guitar, all soft and billowy. The guitar is reminiscent of Pink Floyd, albeit a more countrified version. I really like the shuffling, shifting drumbeats on the track that keep it all together. A very tasty bit of psychedelic country rock.\nI promise that the rest of the week will not be as hippy-dippy as this...\nFunky Friday's Seventies Soul\nBill Withers has one of those voices that is unmistakable - you hear it and you know it's him. He released his debut LP Just As I Am in 1971, and it was a hit right away due to it's leading single Ain't No Sunshine, an absolute classic of a song. Here was a singer combining elements of folk and r'n'b, showing such sensitivity and telling such great stories - gritty realism mixed with such melancholy. The album, produced by the already legendary Booker T. Jones, has just been remastered and reissued. It doesn't have bonus tracks, but it is a DualDisc, so you can pop it in your DVD player and enjoy a short documentary about the making of the album, as well as a couple of great live performances and a 5.1 surround mix of the record. Needless to say it's the shit - 12 great tracks with no filler - with 2 covers (Everybody's Talkin' & Let It Be, both very unique takes) and 10 originals that are just plain brilliant. The band is incredibly tight - Jim Keltner and Al Jackson (The M.G.s) on drums, Stephen Stills on guitar and Booker T. on keys and guitar too. The album opens with Harlem, gorgeously breezy and strummy soul with some hot strings. The tune starts softly and builds into a big, orchestrated stomper that tells a simple story about life in the mythical hood that is Harlem. The record goes on to Ain't No Sunshine and Grandma's Hands (sample spotters will recognise the opening riff, used by Dr. Dre on Blackstreet's No Diggity) and the aforementioned covers before wrapping up with the tragic tale of love gone wrong that is Better Off Dead - \"she's better off without me and I'm better off dead.\" If you've never heard it before, the end of the song will get you. A truly great album and a classic of it's era.\nClassic 12\"s of the '80s - Dub Stylee\nBlack Uhuru's 1984 album Anthem won the band the first ever reggae Grammy award. The trio of Puma Jones, Duckie Simpson and Michael Rose were again backed up by the premier reggae rhythm section of Sly and Robbie. The album was much more of a commercial entity than the few that had preceded it. It was the band's attempt to cross over into the world of mainsteam success, so they added electro and r'n'b elements to their already heady dub brew. Lyrically the trio were as sharp as ever, bringing to life the struggles of the poor, and the injustices handed out by \"the man\". It's nice to note that even though they were obviously trying to reach a larger audience they were unwilling to soften their hardline stance. One of the standout tracks for me was the single What Is Life? (12\" Remix) . For the 12\" remix they procured the services of dance legend Fran\u00e7ois Kevorkian, who worked in tandem with the song's co-producer Paul \"Groucho\" Smykle. They stretch out the tune, adding a lovely spaced out keyboard groove in the middle, and slightly punching up the dancefloor appeal. The sax is great on this. A lovely tune.\nThe Rakes. Great. Just what we need. Another post-punk-pop band of British heritage. Four wiry guys making angular, wiry rock. Well actually, as it turns out, yes, we do need more. Their debut Retreat EP got it's US release last week on hip indie label Dim Mak - the band's album Capture/Release is already out in Europe. Produced by the audio guru of the scene Paul Epworth (Futureheads, Maximo Park, Bloc Party - he's AKA Phones, remixer du jour), the EP is a corker. Retreat is brilliantly catchy stuff with great lyrics detailing a life of continual over indulgence - go out, get pissed, do something stupid, go home and crash, wake up and start all over again. Something we can all relate to to a certain degree. An excellent nugget of sharp, shouty, handclappy goodness. Also very cool is Epworth's remix of it, Retreat (Phones Remix). He applies his magic touch and a rockin' disco anthem is born.\nYou probably already know that the original line-up of Gang Of Four have reunited. They played a few gigs in the UK last year and the buzz was good so they parlayed it into a world tour. They also went into the studio and re-recorded a bunch of their old songs. Return The Gift is the result. It's available in two flavors - the single disc with the re-recorded songs and a two disc version with a second disc of remixes by a whole slew of current acts. Here's the deal as I see it. It seems to me a fairly redundant move to go back and re-record your old songs, especially when the originals are held in such high regard by so many people. I mean really, what's the point? Are the versions going to be radically different? Of course, being a huge fan of the band and of the art of the remix, I knew I'd have to get the double disc set. I've listened to the first disc once - not enough to give you a good opinion, although first impressions left me feeling \"a bit meh\". It seemed like there wasn't a hell of a big difference. The remixes? I've played that disc ALOT. It's great. I enjoy all of the mixes on it - special mentions to Go Home Productions, Phones, Ladytron and The Others. My absolute fave is the Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) remix of I Love A Man In A Uniform. I have to say I also like the re-recorded version of the song off of disc 1. It is a much tighter, louder take, although it lacks the lovely, soulful female backing vocals of the original. The remix rectifies that by inserting the ever awesome vocals of Karen O into the mix in their place. Nick scuffs up the track a bit, and to these ears, it's magic. Maybe one day I'll get around to listening to the rest of disc one, but for now I can't stop playing the remixes.\nI Love A Man In A Uniform (Yeah Yeah Yeahs Remix)\nMy '80s Remastered - Crash\nThe year is 1986. I have recently moved from London to Minneapolis after six years of going to school in the UK. I try to get \"a real job\" but have no luck and end up working in a record shop in the mall downtown. It's not a cool record shop - it was the corporate chain store, pushing the big label product. Anyway, one day I'm at work, which is right next door to a dry cleaners. I look out into the mall, and I see Joanne Catherall and Susan Sulley walk past my store and go into the dry cleaners. OH MY GOD. It's the two chicks from the Human League. Like 15 feet away from me. In Minneapolis. I have just lived in the UK for six years, worshipped this band, and never once got close to them, and here are the two girls. This led me to find out that the band was in fact in town, staying at the hotel that sat atop the mall I worked in, recording a new album with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. Wow, I thought, what a concept. The masters of the \"Minnneapolis sound\" producing the Sheffield electro poppers. Over the next few weeks I saw the girls a few more times. Then one evening I was alone in the store, working the closing shift. I looked up to see a customer walk in to the store. It was Phil Oakey. I couldn't believe it. He was in the store for a while, and eventually came to the counter with a stack of 12\"s. I couldn't tell you what he bought. I was completely unable to pluck up the courage to say a damn thing to him (or to the girls) other than polite customer service chit chat. Why? Because I was just a shy music geek. It was a wasted opportunity that I regret to this day, though it does make for a fun story.\nThe resulting record was the so-so Crash which just got the remastered reissue treatment - the 3 extra tracks are remixes of the singles. It's a handful of songs with Jam & Lewis at the controls and the rest more typical League fare, although not of the quality of Dare. I really like the big hit singles though. It's such an odd collision of musical worlds, hearing Phil crooning and the girls cooing over the kind of modern American r'n'b track that Janet Jackson and the SOS Band were releasing. The intro to Human (Extended Version) is pure Jam & Lewis balladry, with it's percussive intro and the big keyboard run. It's a lovely song that had a very aquatic looking video that I felt matched the tune perfectly. It was also the band's biggest hit since Don't You Want Me. Love Is All That Matters (Extended Version) is an uptempo, funky jam - again it's classic Jam & Lewis. All in all a brave attempt to mess with the formula that ultimately, in my opinion, fails. Oh well, I still bought the damn reissue, didn't I?\nNeed some more Human League? Check out the \"Futuristic Sounds\" page at Blind Youth. They have a bunch of great pre-Virgin Records recordings that Martyn Ware provided them with. There are also some remixes available at Secrets Online (scroll down the page a bit) and at The Pansentient LEAGUE site.\nIf you're in the UK or Europe, you've already got yours, lucky buggers. Tomorrow I get mine. It's been a long wait.\nFunky Friday Hitting You With The Mad Electronics\nTV Dogs (Cathodica's Letter)\nThe always great audio blog 20 Jazz Funk Greats turned me onto Jackson And His Computer Band. Over the last month he's posted a couple of the tunes from this Frenchman's latest album Smash. He's on Warp so you know it's sure to be interesting, and it is. French fried funk of the crispy, clicky, glitchy variety, it bounces all over the electronic map. It's a heady brew of samples, noises, beats and assorted audio oddities, from downtempo to minimal house. Some of it might be a bit much for the casual listener, but there are some very nice moments, including TV Dogs (Cathodica's Letter). Featuring a rap from leftfield hip hopper Mike Ladd (The Infesticons/The Majesticons), it's a hard assed P-funk-meets-Boards Of Canada bounce with all manner of squelchy electro noises and big orchestral samples - guaranteed to get your head nodding once you get past the arty intro. A very cool mix of hip hop and experimental electronics.\nDr. Mabuse (12\" Version)\nAnother classic 12\" of the '80s. Released on THE label of the day, ZTT. Epic Teutonic electro pop of the highest order, this was their debut single. Dr. Mabuse was a fictional character who was made famous by noted German film director Fritz Lang in a series of movies that first appeared in the 1920s. He represented a cold intellect whose one and only aim was destruction of the state. Your typical pop song territory, right? I loved the sound of this track - the hammers, the beats, the chugging bass, the huge delivery of Claudia Brucken, the massive array of synthesizers and drum machines. It was arty and chic, pompous and cold. It utilised all of ZTT's resources, namely Sarm West studios and it's array of Fairlight technology and all of the best studio talent Trevor Horn could round up. It was all embellished with the obscure ramblings of journo Paul Morley. Art pop of the highest quality ensued. I even got the chance to see them live in London at the time, and it was brilliant. Though it may not be their best tune (Jewel/Duel or P Machinery would probably be my top contenders) it is still a classic debut.\nTodd Zilla\nGrandaddy have a new EP out called Excerpts From The Diary Of Todd Zilla. Singer-songwriter Jason Lytle saw the name on a vanity license plate and an EP was born. Playing everything but the drums, he's crafted a set of lo-fi tracks that are pretty typical Granddady fare - dreamy, wistful odes that leave you with a sense of alienation and melancholy, and a couple of rockers that do the same. There's something about this band that moves me, with it's Neil Young-y country rock music filtered through robotic machines and vintage synths and it's lyrics that can go from inane to sublime in a sentence. Even though this is just a stop gap release until the next full length album I find much to enjoy. Florida is a raging rocker, louder and harder than you're used to hearing from these guys. The best tune on it is Pull The Curtains, which kicks off the record. It starts with a mellow acoustic strum and then it bursts into a new wave rocker, all chunky guitar riffs and buzzing synths straight off of a Cars album. It also features one helluva great syndrum roll that punctuates the song every so often. Sweet.\nA Handful Of Covers - John Lennon\nThe latest issue of Q Magazine is a tribute to John Lennon, who would have been 65 this year. The cover mounted CD is also a Lennon tribute - 14 of his songs covered by a who's who of Brit rock, 10 of them *exclusive to the compilation. There are two different covers of the mag available, and two different versions of the CD. I got the one with Badly Drawn Boy instead of Elbow. It's a mixed bag of mostly good stuff - I'm not too sure how I feel about Maddy's Imagine, and the Sugababes' Come Together leaves me unmoved. The rest, as you can see, is mostly rockist fare. Oasis are loud and noisy, Paul Weller is tasty and Badly Drawn Boy is OK. My faves are by the hot and hyped new-comers, Hal & The Subways and a recent-comer, Maximo Park. The Maximo boys take what is a sad and slow song and make it their own - a speedy 1:13 of their taut, angular melancholia. I really like it. I have always liked You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, and the Subways are pretty reverent to the original - it's an acoustic, strummmy version with a gorgeous guitar solo. Hal I've read about but never heard. Their version of Mindgames is a very Flaming Lips-y treatment of the song, albeit a slicker version. It's got a funky disco bass line and some nice sweeping synths. A pretty rather than gritty approach. Not a bad comp for the price of the magazine.\nMadonna - Imagine (live) *\nOasis - I Am The Walrus (live)\nPaul Weller - Instant Karma (We All Shine On)\nFeeder - Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy) *\nSugarbabes - Come Together *\nThe Vines - I'm Only Sleeping\nJoseph Arthur - Look At Me *\nMaximo Park - Isolation *\nThe Subways - You've Got To Hide Your Love Away *\nHal - Mindgames *\nWilly Mason - Nobody Told Me *\nKubb - Mother *\nElbow - Working Class Hero * (on #1)\nBadly Drawn Boy - Merry Xmas (War Is Over) * (on #2)\nThe first time I heard the Talking Heads was in 1980. The single getting airplay on the radio was the seminal track Once In A Lifetime, and my listening habits were changed forever. I went on to work my way retroactively to the earlier records, and kept up with the band all the way through their final LP, 1988's Naked. But I digress. Once In A Lifetime was this magical thing that sounded unlike anything else. Complex afropop rhythms collided with funk and disco beats. David Byrne's classic vocal performance was so unique, so oddly compelling, so freaking weird. I learned that this, of course, was nothing new - this being their fourth album. I couldn't get enough of the song. I bought the album and was confronted with such an artfully concocted brew of dance music, rock, and strange, spaced out atmospheres. And oh! those guitars - itchy rhythms, chicken scratch riffs - \"tikka tikka tikk\" answered with \"tukka tukka tukk\", panning around the headphones. The band is hotter than shit. The four Heads are aided and abetted by Brian Eno's endlessly creative ideas about sound and production in the studio, the sultry vocals of Nona Hendryx and the \"herd of rampaging elephants\" guitar stylings of Adrian Belew. Side A is all about the dance rhythms and percussion and taut, edgy funk. It is, IMO, one of the greatest album sides ever, perfect from start to finish, like side A of Prefab Sprout's Steve McQueen or the Pretenders' debut. Side B is moody and downtempo and kind of creepy, where Eno's sonic wizardry is put to very good use - good stuff, but not as good as side A. Last week brought the moment I have been waiting for for about a decade - the release of the entire back catalogue in remastered and expanded form. You know what the first of the 8 CDs to get played was. It sounded fabulous. And when the first of the four previously unreleased tunes played I was mesmerized. They are all unfinished outtakes, but there's no mistaking the sound and the feel. It's fascinating to hear. Fela's Riff (Unfinished Outtake) is a Philip Glass like repetiton of riffing, layers of guitar fighting for space, some scratchy, some snaky and sinewy. I love the guitar at the beginning - it sounds like a keyboard at first, then explodes into an extended solo. Right Start (Unfinished Outtake) is an early version of Once In A Lifetime. There are no vocals, just lots and lots of guitars working on perfecting those riffs that became so familiar. It's ultra sparse but so damn groovy. The flip sides of these reissues contain 5.1 surround sound mixes of the album as well as videos and live perfromances, and it has been a real blast watching this stuff. This album in particular has the touring version of this band, augmented by Bernie Worrell and Steve Scales, cranking out some of the songs on a German pop music TV show. They sound remarkably tight. Very cool. Now all we need is reissues of the Tom Tom Club's first couple of albums, and a remastered and expanded version of the Brian Eno and David Byrne collaboration My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts - another seminal recording of the '80s.\nFunky Friday Says \"Just Say Sire!\"\nEven if you're only half the music geek I am, chances are you probably own a record that was released by Seymour Stein's Sire Records. Formed in the late '60s, it steadily grew into a powerhouse supporter of everything that wasn't mainstream, a very \"indie\" label despite it's major label support. Just take a look at the almighty huge tracklisting that is laid out before you down below. It's a wildly eclectic, always different, pioneering, humorous and massive collection - a \"whos who\" of the music that I grew up listening to, that shaped who I am as a music junkie today. It spans the spectrum from punk to art rock to disco to folk and jazz and everything in between. I grew up looking at that \"big S in a circle\" logo spinning around and around in the center my turntable, and what was on was usually my very favorite record of the moment. The label is celebrating 40 years of music this year, and this recently released 3CD/1DVD set offers up proof of it's power in helping to shape so much of music history. The video disc is a real blast, and features a few things I had never seen. It's a must have set. Since it's funky Friday I am obliged to give tunes that will have you shaking you groove thang. Kid Creole's Endicott is a sly put down of the hard working husband who is faithful and honest, set to a sharp as ever big band flavored funk groove. Telex's Moskow Disko is a stone cold electro classic with it's memorable train whistle and vocodered vocals. Laid Back's White Horse is bound to be the funkiest anti-drug song ever, and is also equally memorable for it's synths and somewhat clunky beats. You gotta love that \"beep bop boop bap beep\" computer synth action.\nEVERYBODY - Madonna\nKISS ME - Tin Tin\nOH L'AMOUR - Erasure\nSITUATION (remix) - Yaz\nLIVING ON THE CEILING - Blancmange\nTHAT SUMMER FEELING - Jonathan Richman\nYOUNG AT HEART - The Bluebells\nIM NIN'ALU - Ofra Haza\nENDICOTT - Kid Creole & The Coconuts\nLOVE AND MERCY - Brian Wilson\nEACH AND EVERY ONE - Everything But The Girl\nALL THE WAY - Little Jimmy Scott\nCONSTANT CRAVING - k.d. lang\nMOSKOW DISKO - Telex\n(I'M) STRANDED - The Saints\nTOP OF THE POPS - The Rezillos\nNOWHERE GIRL - B-Movie\nPART OF THE PROCESS - Morcheeba\nCOME TOGETHER (7\" Version) - Primal Scream\nTHE LOVE CATS - The Cure\nWARM LEATHERETTE - The Normal\nEVERYDAY IS LIKE SUNDAY - Morrissey\nNEVER NEVER - The Assembly\nOBLIVIOUS - Aztec Camera\nINSIDE OUT - The Mighty Lemon Drops\nLEAVE THEM ALL BEHIND - Ride\nCOME ON LET'S GO - The Paley Brothers and Ramones\nALOHA STEVE & DANNO/THEME FROM HAWAII FIVE-O - Radio Birdman\nTHE WAGON - Dinosaur Jr.\nSONIC REDUCER - Dead Boys\nBLANK GENERATION - Richard Hell & The Voidoids\nI WANT THAT MAN - Deborah Harry\nWORLD CLASS FAD - Paul Westerberg\nGIVE BACK THE KEY TO MY HEART - Uncle Tupelo\nSHAKE SOME ACTION - The Flamin' Groovies\nCOUNTING BACKWARDS - Throwing Muses\nBOY - Book Of Love\nROMEO HAD JULIETTE - Lou Reed\nO.G.

Look at the cover above, and the circle with a squiggly line coming off it is the band's name. It's a silly gimmick that their label knew would make it hard for them to sell records, so they asked them to change it. The band then came up with a way to pronounce the glyph, Freur. This band is also notable due to it being the earliest works of Karl Hyde and Rick Smith who went on to become Underworld, the giants of electronics we know and love so well. The music here is a mix of prog and synthpop, and in retrospect, the vocals are pure Underworld. The song was a minor hit, but I've always loved it's oddness. It still sounds pretty good today, apart from the drums at the end which are a bit dodgy in that syn-drummy way. A nice bit of psychedelic pop that slowly builds from trippy mellowness to full on blip laden pounding.\nDoot Doot (12\" Version) (1983)\nThe Blue Nile first came to my attention with their second single, 1984's Tinseltown In The Rain (12\" Version). Over a driving, uptempo disco beat the band layered some funky bass, a scratchy guitar riff, lots of piano and keys, threw in a boatload of atmospherics and big strings, and topped it all off with the major croon of singer Paul Buchanan. His voice reminded me of the singers of the 50's, people like Sinatra, and to hear it over such modern, swoony music was a thrill. This song has aged remarkably well in my opinion, and it's combination of icy funkiness and human warmth and sensitivity still gives me a little bit of gooseflesh today. It reminds me a lot of the kind of weird, experimental art disco that Arthur Russell did - modern music with a quirky almost classical approach. I continued to buy the band's output over the years, but nothing ever matched the greatness of this song for me.\nClassic 12\"s of the '80s - Is it Love?\nToday's song is dedicated to Johnny over at Lost In The '80s, because I know he will be feeling this one...\nBy the time Gang Of Four released the single Is it Love? in 1983 they had lost two of their original members, added a new girl in bassist Sara Lee, and crossed the pond to North America to record their album Hard. It was produced by Ron Albert and his brother Howard - these guys had done albums by the Allman Brothers, Derek & The Dominos' Layla, the Rolling Stones and Crosby, Stills & Nash, so you knew things weren't going to be the same. The hardcore fans were not happy, because the new record went even further towards slick disco than it's predecessor, Songs Of The Free. I loved the record. Still do. Just listen to Is it Love? (Extended Dance Mix). From it's opening soulful refrain to the first swoosh of the beat and bass, the fat scaratchy guitar riff and those swelling strings it's pure funk-punk genious. Sara's bass is just about as thick as it gets, funky and popping. I love the guitar tracks on this too, so gritty and hard, couched in this soft velvety groove. It's glorious stuff.\nIt is a banner day for new music. The arrival of the Talking Heads Brick is the big story of the day for me. It's a beauteous box set (white plastic with song titles embossed all over it) with all 8 of the studio albums given the full remastering by Jerry Harrison. They all feature previously unreleased songs, and they are all DualDiscs - flip 'em over in your DVD player and its 5.1 surround mixes of the album plus bonus live performances and videos and stuff. IT IS SO BIG!!! I played Remain In Light, and got goosebumps from hearing the previously unreleased tracks. I also listened to I Zimbra from Fear Of Music and was blown away at how good the remaster sounds. This is going to keep me occupied for weeks!\nAlso out today - Metric's Live It Out, Franz Ferdinand's You Could Have It So Much Better, Broken Social Scene's self titled, Liz Phair's Somebody's Miracle, Ladytron's Witching Hour and, from the venerable DFA, Delia Gonzalez & Gavin Russom's The Days Of Mars.

Not really goth, but akin. What a hugely catchy tune.\nSorry for no big write-ups - I'm pressed for time today.

        "raw_content": "Home > Big Ideas > Our Neighbours, Our Friends\nABOVE, RIGHT: SIF Connects! Bandung centred on a dialogue between Indonesian Friends of Singapore, including Bandung Mayor Ridwan Kamil (fourth from left), and representatives from Singapore. FACING PAGE: SIF representative in Jakarta Moch N Kurniawan introducing a benefi ciary of the Indonesia Bright Foundation.\nAbout 150 loving critics and critical lovers of Singapore gathered in Bandung to discuss \u201cWhat\u2019s Next, Singapore?\u201d.\nwenty-one years ago, Indonesian student Ridwan Kamil flew to Singapore on his first trip abroad for a student exchange programme. The experience altered the course of his life. Then, as an architectural engineering undergraduate at the Institut Teknologi Bandung, he became interested in urban design thanks to Singapore\u2019s well-planned cityscape. He went on to further his studies in that field. Fast forward to today and the student is now Mayor of Bandung, Indonesia\u2019s third largest city.\nOn June 13 this year, Mayor Ridwan opened up his official residence, the Pendopo Walikota Bandung, to host a different kind of exchange organised by the Singapore International Foundation (SIF).\nKnown as SIF Connects! Bandung, the event was attended by 150 Friends of Singapore, comprising representatives from the SIF-Asean Fellowship alumni network, and partners and alumni of SIF programmes from Jakarta and Bandung.\nThey shared their perspectives on \u201cWhat\u2019s Next, Singapore?\u201d.\nThe strong turnout reflected the rich tapestry of relationships between the Singaporean and Indonesian communities and a fitting testament to 23 years of SIF\u2019s efforts in promoting friendships and meaningful collaborations between the people of both countries.\nAnchoring the event was a dialogue between Mayor Ridwan, West Java Board of Library and Archives (BAPUSIPDA) head Tati Iriani, Sekolah Menengah Atas (SMA) Negeri 11 Bandung principal Dedeh Suatini, SIF-Asean Student Fellowship alumnus Ibrahim Senen, SIF Governor Ambassador K Kesavapany and Deputy Chief of Mission at the Singapore Embassy in Jakarta Timothy Chin.;\nSIF Governor Jennifer Lewis moderated the dialogue. Mayor Ridwan shared how his stint as an exchange student in Singapore under the SIF-Asean Student Fellowship, shaped his perspectives. The fellowship, which ran from 1993 to 2004, invited 40 student leaders from Asean countries each year to spend a semester in Singapore\u2019s universities to experience the Singaporean way of life.\nSaid the mayor: \u201cSingapore changed my life in many ways. Influenced by my visit, I fell in love with urban planning and design; that\u2019s why I took a master\u2019s degree in urban design at the University of California, Berkeley. It also changed the way I saw the world.\u201d\nSharing his view of harnessing friendships for good was fellow panellist and Indonesia Bright Foundation (IBF) founding member, Ibrahim Senen. The IBF is a non-profit organisation that provides educational scholarships to underprivileged children in Indonesia.\nAt the dialogue, Ibrahim Senen said: \u201cThe IBF initiative is (a way for) the alumni to give back what we had received from Singapore a long time ago. Singapore taught us a lot and provided opportunities for us. What the SIF did for us, we try to do at least for our people and our society.\u201d\nTo date, the IBF has provided scholarships to more than 400 recipients, from elementary school pupils to university students.\nSMA Negeri 11 Bandung principal Dedeh Suatini shared about an annual school programme in which 20 students from Singapore are hosted by 20 students from her school for two weeks.\nShe said: \u201cThis is a wonderful experience for the students. I hope that when they become leaders in the future, they will continue to be connected to each other, just like Singapore and Indonesia.\u201d\nTo celebrate Singapore-Indonesia ties, SIF Connects! Bandung also hosted an exhibition that showcased SIF\u2019s volunteer initiatives in Indonesia, such as the Water for Life project in Lamongan in East Java, which aims to provide access to clean drinking water through the installation of 150 membrane water filters in the regency, and the Words on Wheels project in Bandung, which aims to nurture a culture of learning among the city\u2019s schoolchildren.\nABOUT SIF CONNECTS!\nSIF Connects! events are organised by the Singapore International Foundation (SIF) to reconnect with alumni and friends overseas and share insights that promote understanding and collaborations. This year, to involve international friends in Singapore\u02bcs Golden Jubilee celebrations, the SIF has arranged a series of dialogues around the theme of \u201cWhat\u02bcs Next, Singapore?\u201d.\nStarting with Bandung, Indonesia, SIF will continue the conversations with Friends of Singapore (FOS) at upcoming dialogues in Kuala Lumpur, London and Washington DC over the next few months before the series culminates in the biennial reunion of SIF programme alumni at SIF Connects! Singapore in December this year.\nSIF\u02bcs new book, Singapore: Insights from the Inside \u2013 Volume II, provides the backdrop to the dialogues. This second volume of insights comprises 50 stories written by members of the international community who have visited, worked or studied in Singapore sharing their unique perspectives on \u201cWhat is Singapore?\u201d.\nTogether, the book and the ongoing series of SG50 dialogues with FOS seek to nurture and spark many more big ideas for partnerships and collaborations between Singapore and world communities.",

        "raw_content": "Filmmaker Chad Calek now hunts ghosts for a living. But he wasn\u2019t initially obsessed with paranormal activity as a child.I grew up in a family where [the paranormal] wasn\u2019t spoken about,\u201d he says in a recent phone interview. \u201cI was a complete atheist. I had no belief in the other side.\u201d\nIn the film American Ghost Hunter, which he released last year on Hulu, he tells the story of how he started to experience paranormal activity after his family moved to a small town in Iowa.\n\u201cMy parents found a great deal on a house that was a way from the public,\u201d he says. \u201cWe heard from the gentleman who sold it to us that it was haunted. That meant nothing to us. We thought, \u2018Tell it to go away. Who gives a shit?\u2019 I quickly learned the reality of a haunting. I was the last person in my family to experience anything. At first I honestly thought [the rest of the family was] going crazy, bro, I really did. Then I had a series of traumatic events happen to me. It\u2019s not something you brush off and keep moving on with life. In the beginning, it was about trying to validate my own experiences and know that I wasn\u2019t crazy.\u201d\nCurrently on a 17-city summer tour that includes a July 27 stop at the Agora, filmmaker Chad Calek aims to \u201cdeliver what all other paranormal documentaries have failed to produce \u2013 authentic paranormal evidences that proves the existence of ghosts.\u201d His Paramerican Tour will feature Q&A sessions, paranormal presentations and the premiere of the new film, Sir Noface, the \u201cdocumented true story\u201d of Craig Powell and the team of Australian investigators who tried to debunk his claims of paranormal activity at Cockatoo Island, a former convict prison before reopening as a state park.\nPrior to the screening of Sir Noface, Calek, who served as co-star and director of the hit A&E Network reality series, Paranormal State, will host \u201ca paranormal evidence presentation\u201d and provide a first-look at his upcoming documentary, Blacksheep.\nAs a filmmaker, Calek says he finds inspiration in the work of other noted directors.\n\u201cWhen it comes to visuals and music, I\u2019m a big fan of Paul Thomas Anderson,\u201d he says. \u201cEverything he does is so epic. He has a way of making everything seem larger than life. I\u2019m a fan of Oliver Stone\u2019s editing style. People have said my editing style shows that. I am a fan. When you like things, you have a natural tendency to borrow from them and make them your own. Those two are big ones. The most obvious comparison that has been made before is Stanley Kubrick. I\u2019m into the ultra-spooky. He can take a single piano note and have it linger over a scene for two-and-a-half minutes and have it chill the shit out of you.\u201d\nHe says, the response to the Paramerican tour, which will include a ghost hunting expedition at the Agora, has been positive.\n\u201cThe tour has been mind-blowing,\u201d he says. \u201cPeople show up skeptical, as they should, but they leave as believers.\u201d\n\u2190 Previous post:Chad speaks LIVE on Fox\u2019s \u201cThe Jason Show\u201d in Minneapolis!\nNext post: The Crypto Blast \u2013 SIR NOFACE \u2013 A Documentary Movie by Chad Calek \u2192",

        "raw_content": "In theaters: Guillermo del Toro's meticulously-designed The Shape of Water may very well be his best - by which I mean most relevant and most emotional - film since Pan's Labyrinth. Not unusually in his case, every image seems to speak to every other in some way, with water/fluidity and sea life most prominent, but Biblical allusions also feature heavily, especially Old Testament figures that have some relevance to the characters in the story. Del Toro has said this his his most personal film, and one can perhaps see why - it's on one level about the destructive nature of progress (which is tied to Ugly Americanism), which does away with all the things the director feels nostalgia for, a future of acid greens washing over the film. If it is one of his better works, it's because the dialog and acting are more on par with the look of the film. And more surprising too. I certainly wasn't expecting it to be this much of an erotic thriller, or to in some way be a backdoor musical. Not such a surprise is that Sally Hawkins gives another beautiful performance.\nWhile all biopics can't take that road, I really liked I, Tonya pulling a Big Short with its material, recreating interviews, having the characters turn to camera, and fully admitting this pack of self-serving liars made contradicting statements. It's something that works well when the actual events are outrageous and ridiculous. And Tonya Harding's story is that. While the film makes her sympathetic to a point - one can appreciate the unfairness of her situation - it doesn't so much redeem Harding as indict the audience for enjoying this crazy page of sports history when it happened. Regardless of athletic ability, she never catches a break and finds herself in abusive relationships even with strangers, but her reaction (and that of the stupid criminals in her entourage) deserves no flowers. The film makes a fair few points besides, about the skating world, organized sports, and the media. Engrossing, wryly funny, but sad too.\nAt home: Hitchcock made a straight screwball romcom?! That would be 1941's Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which everybody insists on comparing to his suspense thrillers, even the remake which decides to properly \"Hitchcock\" it up by making the characters spies (and little else the same but the name). The original is the story of a quirky married couple who discover their marriage was not legal on a technicality. It's just a matter of doing it again, but the volatile Mrs. Smith decides Mr. Smith isn't enthusiastic about it enough and decides to perhaps marry his best friend, much to his consternation. It's an amusing film, with the right chemistry between Carole Lombard and Robert Montgomery that, at the end of the day, is about finding your perfect match, not just warts and all, but because the warts match the other's capacity for forgiveness too.\nNoah Baumbach's semi-autobiographical The Squid and the Whale presents his parents as the two battling monsters, both New York intellectuals and writers (Jeff Daniels, Laura Linney), sharing custody of he (Jesse Eisenberg) and his younger brother (Owen Kline) after their divorce. Both boys immediately start misbehaving, but in very different ways, just as each chooses a parent they like better. As we explore each character's psychology, Baumbach never force feeds answers. We're presented with well-acted behavior and left to draw our own conclusions, which makes for a rich, detailed, textured portrait of a dysfunctional family. Most interesting is how it shows how attitudes and behaviors are passed down to children by their parents, the writer-director rather brutally honest with his and his family's cinematic stand-ins.\nCan you perhaps tell which Nicolas Cage movies are bad based on the quality of his wig? No really, does anyone working in movies today have as bad a collection of fright wigs as Nic Cage? Based on that evidence, Next goes in the \"bad\" column, but I can't help but show interest in any movie based on a Philip K. Dick story, even if 75% of them are VERY LOOSE adaptations, and terrible. The premise is fairly cool, mind you. He plays a stage magician who can see 2 minutes in the future, and FBI agent Julianne Moore wants him to help them counter terrorists who want to nuke L.A. (why the bad guys are French is anybody's guess). After that, it's an action movie where the hero has spidey-sense, for the most part. If you don't see the Dickian twist coming, I'd be surprised, but I don't think, as some might, the film ends too soon; what happens next should be clear. The reason it's not a good film, though, is the love story at the center of it. Cage and Jessica Biel are a preposterous match that is far less believable on screen than the character's psychic powers or both the FBI and the terrorists believing such powers exist. I would excise it from the film, if only the contrivance didn't motivate Cage's character so much. Next!\nThere's something modern, or maybe timeless, about All About Eve. Betty Davis is of course great as the aging diva whose throne is about to be usurped by Eve, the pretty young thing who's finagled her way into her entourage. Cracking dialog, well-acted psychologies, and a truthful look at the theater scene combine to make this great drama. But writer-director Joseph L. Mankiewicz gives it several stylish spins that make it rise above even that level. Novelistic voice-over and freeze frame are well-used, and a particular mirror shot at the end manages to put into images the idea that the young and ambitious continually replace the old and experienced, in every field (it's ALL theater, isn't it?) is an infinite cycle. Masterful and witty, it doesn't show its age. Plus, early Marilyn Munroe!\nPlaywright Alan Bennett (The History Boys) adapted his mostly-autobiographical The Lady in the Van for the screen, about an old homeless woman (here played by the powerhouse that is Maggie Smith) who parked her van in his driveway for 15 years. While the intrigue would have us care about why the woman is where she is, Bennett is honest with himself and also explores the self-centeredness of a biographical writer, with two Bennetts inhabiting the scenes (the one who lives and the one who writes about it), one of a couple of stylistic touches that make the film interesting beyond its subject matter. With a perhaps unhealthy dose of auto derision, Bennett makes sure we do not think he is a saint for helping \"Miss Shepherd\", and his catharsis is essentially arrived at by observing someone else seek forgiveness and redemption (though he may not have known it at the time). Comic and tragic, this is a strange slice of life to be sure.\nWhen I think of Who Framed Roger Rabbit - which I hadn't seen in decades - I remember all the crazy practical tricks they had to do to match the animation that would later be put to screen, and that still holds up well. I remember the fun of seeing animated character from every cartoon company (up through 1947) sharing the screen the screen with memorable NEW toons, and that last part is no mean feat. I remember the amusing world-building, merging Old Hollywood, rubber hose animation and film noir. But what I didn't recall was just how madcap and genuinely FUNNY the opening Roger Rabbit/Baby Herman cartoon was. And how much subtlety there is in the humor throughout the movie. Zemeckis never pushes too hard and lets you get the joke when you're ready for it, on whatever viewing. Rich in detail and silly fun.\nDid Luther really need a fourth series (and now an announced fifth)? I thought Series 3 ended quite perfectly, with Idris Alba's character having gone through a soul-confronting arc and ending on a note that was just ambiguous enough to let the imagination fill in the blanks. Series 4 is just 2 episodes (as opposed to 4), just enough time for a serial killer case and a reason to \"pull him back in\". The B-plot about Alice Morgan's presumed death and the consequences thereof tries to create a new femme fatale for Luther, but the series' length kind of means it's all a bit of a rush, and at times a little hard to get a handle on. Rose Leslie (Game of Thrones' Ygritte) plays his new partner and works well in the role. I feel I might have accepted a coda at this point, but this is clearly a transition instead. I had said my goodbyes and may ultimately regret keeping up with the show.\nMission: Impossible's third season is its last with what we consider the iconic cast - Phelps, Rollin, Cinnamon, Barney and Willy - before Martin Landau and Barbara Bain leave the program. It's really the show at its best, and having resolved to mostly use these agents, it doesn't feel the need to do the old (and ultimately silly) sequence were Phelps chooses his team with 8x10 glossies each time, and changes things up once in a while by starting on a mission gone bad, then having to spend the bulk of the episode on rescuing the lost agent. It does hark back to an older way of making television, showing all the nitty-gritty of, say, Greg Morris fiddling with screws or wires. There are a lot of silent sequences in Mission: Impossible. In this age of bingeable TV, it's not something you'd necessarily chug, but if I'd need just a small shot of iconic IMF adventure, this is probably the season to get it from.\nDoctor Who Titles: Before Michel Gondry and Charlie Kaufman collaborated on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, the made Human Nature together. It's something of a misfire, either because Gondry isn't in yet the director he will become, or because Kaufman's script doesn't have the usual opportunities for absurdist art direction, I'm not sure. Going by the first image, of two mice being attacked by a bird, the film is ostensibly about the impossibility of going down two roads at once, in terms of the story, following instinct or societal norms. But it gets sort of lost along the way in what is more or less a screwball sex comedy about a hirsute woman (Patricia Arquette), a man raised as an ape (Rhys Ifans), and the psychologist who tries to civilize them both (the problematic Tim Robbins, playing a kind of caricature). Even if it doesn't quite work, I would rather scripts like Kaufman's get produced than not. Even his failures are more interesting than most people's successes.\n#The TARDIS lands in the film... The 8th Doctor, Fitz and Anji feel obligated to free the ape man Puff from his glass box, but are amazed to find out he thinks of it as home!\nOscar Pool Stash Forced Watch: I went into The Scorpion King 4: Quest for Power with only the 1999 Mummy film under my belt and nothing else from that cinematic universe, but it doesn't seem to matter. The fantasy adventure is a complete story and thankfully, one that doesn't take itself seriously. Thankfully because, for the most part, it's very \"televisiony\", with flat lighting, bloodless fighting, and casting based on who can throw a punch more than can act (every \"name\" actor has about 3 minutes of screen time, but watch for Lou Ferigno, Michael Beihn, Rutger Hauer and M. Emmet Walsh). Think of it as a light Xena episode, and you've got the tone. Victor Webster does the comedy easily in the title role, and he's as much an archeologist adventurer as he is a swordsman, which surprisingly fits the franchise better than expected. It's unambitiously-produced fluff, but still casually entertaining.\n#OscarPoolResult: I'm not running to the bargain bins to find other installments or anything, but this might serve as inspiration for a D&D adventure some day.\nSome more MST3K movies (classic and new series), regardless of comedy commentary... The Rutland, Vermont Amateur Theater Company presents Time Chasers, a time travel movie shot with always too much headroom and inept in almost every possible way, though I can't fault its impossible ambitions; must've been a hoot to film on the weekend. Werewolf might have done something interesting with the Native American skinwalker legends, but instead becomes as generic as its title, shambling along with bad hair and accent continuity. What if Scrooge was Santa's landlord? The Christmas That Almost Wasn't dares answer with a a silly whimsical adventure starring Santa and his lawyer (it's dumb, but probably my favorite episode of MST3K The Return). Zombie Nightmare makes a promise it can't keep in its opening credits (a top-billed Adam West, Tia Carrere in her first film role, big name heavy metal bands), but it's a murky, atrociously-acted voodoo zombie picture with a resolution that comes out of nowhere; of interest only for West's crazy noir dialogue). The 1976 adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' At the Earth's Core starts off well, with Peter Cushing and Doug McLure visiting Pellucidar, but while (speaking of Cushing) this is no better or worse than Dr. Who and the Daleks, it looks like it was made 10 years earlier, and the silly effects don't seem quite as charming as 70s fare; worse, it gets a little dull in the middle when it should be a rollicking adventure. Roger Corman's The Undead is preposterously titled (it's about a hypno-therapist sending a girl's mind back in time to her life as an accused witch), but though it's a wonky time travel story featuring cod-Shakespearean dialog and Satan himself, it's for the most part effectively directed and imaginative.\nI find it hard to get mad at \"Time Chasers\"; its biggest problem is that it's hard to get worked up about the stakes, which are an apocalyptic timeline that we can hit the \"reset\" button on at any time. Yeah it might take a little doing to do it, but the hero is never really up against powers that dwarf his own. It's basically a matter of stealing the plane back and forth, and there's not much suspense at work.\n\"The Undead\" is a favorite of mine, just because it tries so hard to be artistic. But it features Mike / Kevin / Bill at their best, wringing comedy out of the ether. \"Y'know, Smolken's naked sometimes\" is one of the greatest filler jokes of all time.\nBest parts of \"Werewolf\" are the end credits and the guy who gets into a fistfight with the werewolf. I really get the feeling they hired the guy to just get thrown around by the werewolf, and he said, \"no way am I going down without a fight! At least let me punch the werewolf before I go down.\"\nI guess Tyrone wasn't available. TUSK!\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPiZOi1aBF8",

        "raw_content": "There are really only two things in this life you can be absolutely certain of. First of all, everyone has to die eventually. You will age as you get older. The following tips will teach you how to approach aging in an informed and intelligent way.\nSwitch away from real dairy to dairy substitutes like soy or almond milk. There have been quite a few studies linking dairy products with aging skin. If you want to avoid wrinkles as you age, put down the dairy. The substitutes that are on the market are healthy and tasty so give them a shot.\nWhen you get older, it is important to know who you are and what you like. When you focus on what you like, and keep things around you positive, you accent the good things you have going in your life, and will not allow any negative emotions or situations to bring you down.\nEmbrace your age! Do not fight the fact that you are no longer as youthful as you once were. It is going to happen to everyone at some point and the sooner you embrace it, the sooner you will learn to adapt to it. You are smarter and more experienced in life, enjoy it!\nMost everyone is lacking one vitamin or another, but one vitamin that most people, especially those that are growing older don't get enough of is Vitamin D. Vitamin D helps your internal health as well as your well-being, so to age gracefully, begin by getting a little sunlight each day, which is the best source of Vitamin D. It is also acceptable to supplement with foods high in Vitamin D as well as vitamin supplements.\nOne of the main contributing factors to a shorter life is the amount of sugar we eat. Eating a lot of sugar accelerates the growing older process and shortens your life. Research shows that sugar reduces the lifespan of any animal on earth by a significant amount.\nDuring the course of the day, act silly and joke around with friends and family. The more that you joke, the lower your heart rate will be and the better you will feel as the day wears on. This can go a long way in reducing your stress and helping you to become more beautiful.\nTake care of your skin, especially on your face. Wrinkles and spots due to sun exposure or other issues can add up to twenty years to the appearance of your face, while youthful-looking smooth skin can work in the opposite direction. Use lotion and sunscreen on a daily basis to keep your skin at its best.\nMake sure you visit your doctor for testing that will help you better manage your health. There are so many medical issues that are treatable if they're caught early that it really pays off to endure whatever tests you need. The sooner you know about a problem, the sooner you can https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4976400/ solve it.\nFor breakfast, instead of eating a meal that is very high in carbs and fat, choose a piece of fruit instead. This will give you the nutrients that you need to maintain energy during the course of the day and can help to make your skin look fresh and glowing. Start your day off with a http://aironovo.com/?tips-for-health-tips-website-operations-an-eye-towards-popular-appeal-785860 healthy choice like an apple or an orange.\nAs stated at the beginning of this article, todays technology allows us to dramatically halt the growing older process in its tracks. From tummy-tucks to hair replacement, the possibilities seem to defy nature. Apply the advice from this article to stop the getting older process in its tracks, and feel young and beautiful forever.",

        "title": "Saratoga Springs' Latest Attractions \u2014 The Skidmore News",
        "raw_content": "Saratoga Springs, with its reputation as both a bustling summer resort destination and quaint college town to Skidmore students, continues to evolve to fit the needs of both its residents and visitors. New attractions, restaurants and stores pop up in the blink of an eye. From a local hot spot\u2019s recent renovation, to brand new Broadway real estate, here are Saratoga\u2019s latest gems:\n1). The New Cantina. Saratoga\u2019s own Cantina restaurant, featuring authentic Mexican fare and margaritas galore, recently underwent a major renovation. Moving from a small but charming location at 430 Broadway, the fan-favorite restaurant ventured a little way down the street, and found itself a newer, bigger home. Featuring an open patio for an outdoor dining experience, the new location allows for a more spacious feel. The new restaurant is dressed with new d\u00e9cor and a more expansive menu, maintaining all the popular items while adding even more tacos. The updated Cantina is fitting in nicely and finding success at 408 Broadway, never straying far from its roots.\n2). Saratoga\u2019s Broadway Deli. A Jewish deli by the name of \u201cSaratoga\u2019s Broadway Deli\u201d recently moved into Suite 2 of the Washington building at 420 Broadway. Serving classics like corned beef, matzo ball soup, latkes and many others, the deli has no shortage of options for customers, who have the convenience to choose to either eat in or take out. Complete with a witty website offering Saratogians fun little updates \u2014 including the installation of their new sign and the status of their cookies, which are selling out every day they say \u2014 the deli appears to be a promising new place in Broadway\u2019s food scene.\n3). Pig \u2019N Whistle. Taking over Circus Cafe\u2019s former space, Pig \u2019N Whistle hopes to be the newest destination for Saratoga\u2019s comfort food needs. The restaurant serves traditional pub fare\u2014Irish style. Customers can find items like Shepherd\u2019s Pie and Bangers N\u2019 Mash (sausage and mashed potatoes) as well as things like pizza, sandwiches and, of course, beer. Catering to the vibrant nightlife found in Saratoga Springs, the new restaurant also hopes to host regular trivia nights and live music.\n4). The New Downtowner. The motel many knew as the Saratoga Downtowner, located at the corner of Broadway and Division Street, has been revived by a business called Lark Hotels, who own multiple hotel properties in the New England and California regions. Now simply called the Downtowner, a \u201cmodern, stylish boutique hotel with the bones of a vintage motel\u201d according to the website, the place strives to maintain its motel origins while embracing a newer, sleeker aesthetic.\n5). Skidmore\u2019s New North Hall East Lot. While technically not a brand-new Saratoga hot spot, Skidmore\u2019s latest effort to improve parking lot congestion is worth mentioning. Located between North Hall and Perimeter Road, the new parking lot will formally open Wednesday, Sept. 12. Vehicles cannot be parked between 2am and 7am, as the space is considered a \u201ccommuter lot.\u201d",

Do YOU think it's worth it? Decide for me! Decide!\nRe: Is SLIDERS: THE CLASSIC EPISODES worth $20 USD?\nyes, buy it....no other episode guide, few other sliders items out their, the book was badly rated because it was released during year of the show about 2 years late and only reiews year 1, 2, and most of year 3. yes it is done badly with spelling and grammer error even i was able to notice\nI got it on Amazon for cheaper. I would get it from there. It's not quite worth 20. However, it'd be noble thing to reward any bookstore that carries it, so if you have the $, it's worth taking that into consideration.\nSome of the interviews are fun to read, but most have been superseded by more \"open\" interviews they've given over the last few years.\nI found the interviews really the only thing of value. I'm not sure what the show recaps/synopsis offered all that much value in today's internet era. But the interviews were cool. Nothing explosive but there's definitely some unique stuff.\n6 Reply by tom.holste 2017-06-11 15:45:18 (edited by tom.holste 2017-06-11 16:05:43)\nI own a copy, and seeing as how it's one of the few Sliders collectibles out there, I don't regret buying it. But its infamous reputation is accurate.\nThere are a number of inappropriate crass comments in the book (for instance, in the \"Time Again and World\" review), and a number of bewilderingly wrong episode descriptions that suggest that the author, Brad Linaweaver, hadn't actually seen the episodes. For instance:\n--He praises the \"Weaker Sex\" episode because he claims that \"after an attempt is made on Arturo's life, Wade has a change of heart and questions the wisdom of the Sliders' involving themselves in this world's politics.\" In fact, she does nothing of the sort. She remains rather smug and defiant of Arturo all the way until the end of the episode. (Actually, I would like the episode a little better if the above scene happened, but it doesn't.)\n--He claims that, at the end of \"The Young and the Relentless,\" there's an epilogue that shows one of the denizens of that world having been captured by the Kromaggs, as a lead-in to \"The Invasion.\" That simply doesn't happen.\n--According to him, \"Murder Most Foul\" ends with Arturo not cured! \"He slides, still thinking he's Reginald Doyle.\" Um...what??\n--The description of the series on the back cover reads: \"Following the success of The X-Files, Sliders has become a cult classic in its own right, attracting the many fans who follow the world of the strange and supernatural.\" WHAT??? NO!!! Sliders is not a show about ghosts and goblins! Why is this publisher even doing a book about the show if they apparently have no idea what it's about?? (On this last point, Linaweaver may not have written the back cover description.)\nAs for the rest of it: To be fair, perhaps Linaweaver had to work in a hurried fashion, and instead of video copies of the episodes, he had to work from early scripts. But it would be still weird that no one gave him the final scripts, at least. Admittedly, this is all speculation. But certainly, this was long before the beautiful Mill Creek set.\nAnyway, due to the errors and incompleteness of the work, I don't think it's worth $20, but it's nice to have on your shelf somewhere as a Sliders collectible if you can get a decent price.\nI think Tf's review from 18(!) years ago sums it up well enough:\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-revi \u2026 1575000539\nI really wish there was a \"0\" star rating.\nAs a fan since day one of Sliders, I can tell you that basically what you have with \"Sliders: The Classic Episodes\" is a piece of trash...especially when you consider that this book underwent a year's worth of delays to get to the sorry state it was released in.\nFirst of all is the bulk of the book, the episode reviews. Not only is the job done in the most unprofessional manner possible (you get more childish ranting and rambling opinion of the author than actual information), but it's hard to tell what show the reviewer was watching. The reason for that is that the reviewer never bothers to point out that he is not watching the episodes that were broadcast...thus he never points out that many of the things he talks about in an episode review were *never* broadcast. He just treats the rare inside info as parts of the episode and adds so much of his own rhetoric that the main idea of the \"lost scene\" is lost (thus confusing the reader and robbing them of the enjoyment of inside information which would otherwise be a treasure).\nExamples of this can be found for the episodes \"Summer of Love\" and \"The Young and The Relentless\"...just to name a few. This just blends into the larger problem...Linaweaver based his book on the production scripts and not by viewing the episodes (he misleadingly tells the readers that he viewed the episodes). I've read the production scripts...I know. And don't even get me started on the pleothra of unintelligible mistakes in the episode information of this book that any \"long time\" fan would never make.\nOf course, the most annoying thing of all is that even with one year to get it right, Linaweaver still couldn't \"find the time\" to review the last parts of season three. What was he doing during the delays?\nThe highlight of the book is the interviews...but that isn't saying much. The interviewer seems to take up all the time commenting on himself and his assistants rather than getting information from the stars and creators...and I personally love how the *co-creator* of the show (Bob Weiss) only got a page and a half in the book where as Peter Spellos (a *guest* actor) got a more in depth interview. Where were the priorities? Or do you get more inside info from the guest actor?!? And of course, every interview contains the endless mentions of how the book is dedicated to Ken Steadman...which takes any true, honorable meaning away from the gesture.\nBottom line: Save your money. You can find more comprehensive, better structured, more reliable, more insightful Sliders information on the internet for free (and you don't get as much pompous attitude and lude comments either!). Just consult your local search engine to find more inside information and thoughtful commentary on Sliders...and you'll find more enjoyment too.\nI use this book on a daily basis. It's got me covered. When I'm in a pinch I whip it out to prove season 3 is the best season there is. If I don't have time to watch an episode, no problem. I can read each episode synopsis in about 2 minutes. Certainly worth the full retail $19.95 Canadian doughlars. Its a great compliment to my Limited Edition $139.99 Complete Series collector set.\nI just want to take this moment to hand over my Most Sarcastic Person On Sliders.TV award to Jim_Hall. Clearly, I have been trumped, the better man has won. I did not buy the book. Thank you all.\n10 Reply by tom.holste 2017-08-17 12:58:45\nWow, I don't think I've ever read TF's review before, but it's 100% spot-on.\nI speculated that Linaweaver was working from the production scripts, but I didn't know it was ever confirmed. That's a cool bit of info. I agree that if the information had been presented as bits of trivia -- \"Here's how the script differs from the final episode\"-- that would have been a great deal more interesting than just presenting the information in a wrong and confusing way.\nI also agree about Ken Steadman. The impact of the dedication is lost because Linaweaver seems to mention it on every other page.\nAs for why Linaweaver said that he didn't have the time, I think I actually understand that. At Dragon*Con 1998, Linaweaver spoke about the book, saying that the publishers figured that with the show (at that point) still continuing, they hoped to get a second volume out of the later episodes (hence why this volume is called \"The Classic Episodes\"). It was a bad plan, because so many fans felt ripped off with what we got the first time that it didn't sell well enough to get a second volume.\nI still say the book might be worth picking up at a garage sale for under $1, but probably not more than that. Its value is as a Sliders collectible rather than what's inside.\nI know that ireactions has already made up his mind not to buy the book, but I can't resist sharing one final thought: You could pay $20 for a used copy of a book that covers half the series, or you could buy the entire series on DVD for the same amount.",

Since Phthia is the home of Achilles, Socrates interprets the dream to mean that he will be going home soon. His home, however, will be the Underworld and he believes that the dream foreshadows his death.\nCrito prefers to interpret the dream to mean that Socrates should escape to Thessaly, the region in which Phthia is located. If he makes his escape soon, Socrates could be there in three days. For Socrates, however, this would be dishonorable just as it would have been dishonorable for Achilles to go home and abandon his military duties.

Roman and Italic letter. Small woodcut printer\u2019s device on title, floriated woodcut initials, grotesque woodcut head-pieces, near contemporary inscription in Welsh (purchase note?) at head of title page. Light age yellowing, the occasional mark or spot. A very good copy, crisp and clean, in early C18th speckled calf over boards, rebacked with spine laid down, raised bands gilt ruled in compartments, with gilt fleurons, a little rubbed and scratched.\nThe first edition of this most important and famous Welsh grammar, the first scientific grammar of the Welsh language; amongst the complimentary verses prefixed to the volume are a set by William Camden. Rhys states, in his lengthy preface in Welsh, that he had written the work in Latin, as he felt it was easier to explain Welsh in Latin than in English. The work contains a dedication to Sir Edward Stradling who urged Rhys to undertake the work and who financed its printing. The work is important as one of the first studies of the Welsh language and for the anthology of early Welsh poetry which it contains.\n\u201cJohn David Rhys. (or \u2018 Si\u00f4n Dafydd Rhys \u2019), physician and grammarian of a humble family \u2026 After spending some time at Christ Church College , Oxford , he departed for the Continent about 1555 and travelled extensively \u2014 he himself states that he visited Venice , Crete , and Cyprus \u2014 finally becoming a member of the University of Siena , where he graduated as a doctor of medicine. He was also a teacher at a school in Pistoia. It is not known for how long he remained on the Continent, but he was back in Wales by 1579 , and in 1583 he was practising as a physician at Cardiff . .. Two books by him appeared during his stay on the Continent. One was De Italica Pronunciatione ( Padua , 1569 ), which was probably intended for the use of Welshmen visiting Italy, and which proves the author\u2019s familiarity with all the principal European languages. The other work was a Latin grammar published at Venice, and said to have been very popular with students, but no copy seems to have survived. After returning to Wales and devoting some years to the collection of material Rhys published, in 1592, his famous Welsh grammar, Cambrobrytannicae Cymraecaeve Linguae Institutions et Rudimenta. The book was dedicated to Sir Edward Stradling of S. Donats, Glam., who had defrayed the cost of printing. It consists of a grammar of the Welsh language together with a lengthy and laborious discussion of Welsh prosody. As a work of scholarship it has very little merit, because the author , who had none of the gifts of Gruffydd Robert or Dr. John Davies for analysing the structure of language, adopted the grammatical framework of Latin and forced the Welsh language into that. \u2026 It should be observed however that the book contains items of knowledge which are not found elsewhere. The author\u2019s aim was to make known outside Wales the peculiarities of the Welsh language and the main features of the bardic tradition, and this is the reason why the book was written in Latin.\u201d Dictionary of Welsh Biography.

        "raw_content": "What are solar panels made from and how do they generate electricity?\nSolar panels are typically rectangular plates that look similar to dark glass. They are made from smaller solar \u201ccells\u201d that are wired together and assembled into a single panel. The solar cells work together to generate electricity in the solar panel. Although there are many different types of solar cells, most work in a similar manner. A positive layer and a negative layer of silicon are pressed together in the cell and as the sun hits one of the layers of silicon, it excites the free electrons which then flow back and forth to the other layer of silicon creating a natural electric current.\nHow much electricity can a solar power system generate?\nIt depends on how many solar panels for the home are wired together on your roof. Many commercial pv systems can produce as high as almost 1 Megawatt of energy at peak capacity (when the sun is shining). However, the typical home solar power produces on average between 3-7 Kilowatts of electricity at peak capacity. For most homeowners, a typical system is enough to completely power their home throughout the day. If the solar system generates excess electricity, it can either be stored in battery attached to the system or, in some areas, be sold back to the local electrical utility. During the night, when the solar panels are not generating electricity, your home will either (1) draw power from a battery that stores excess electricity from the the solar system or (2) draw power from the existing electrical grid. Fortunately, the typical home owner\u2019s energy requirements are much less at night than during the day (when the solar system is producing electricity) and electric rates are usually much cheaper at night as well.\nHow popular is solar energy in the United States?\nSolar energy in the United States still only accounts for a small amount of the overall energy usage, nevertheless, solar power is enjoying huge increases throughout the country. As consumers continue to learn about the tremendous benefits of solar power, federal, state and local governments have responded by implementing financial and tax incentives, such as solar rebates, to promote the adoption of of solar in homes and businesses alike. Thousands of homeowners as well as a large number of businesses have realized the economic benefits of solar power and have already taken advantage of these incentives.\nHow much of my energy bill can solar power replace?\nA typical homeowner can save between 70-100% of their electricity bill when they invest in a solar power system. The exact amount of savings depends on several factors:\nYour electric utility rates: some areas of the U.S. (such as the Northeast) charge more for electricity meaning that there is greater room for you to save money by investing in solar power.\nThe amount of sunlight your home receives: consumers living in areas that receive more sun and who have little shading on their home can generate more solar electricity than those areas that are more cloudy or have substantial shading.\nThe size of solar power system: larger installations, while they cost more, will produce more electricity than small systems and offer greater potential savings.\nHow can solar power benefit me?\nHome solar power can benefit you in several big ways. First, it can reduce or even eliminate your monthly electricity bill \u2013 imagine paying 70-100% less every month on electricity or even having the utility write you a check. Second, solar can increase the value of your home, sometimes even more than the cost of the system to you. As a result, solar can be a safe and stable financial investment.\nThe benefits of solar are not only financial though. Solar power reduces the amount of pollution released into our air and water, improving our quality of life. It also can make you more independent \u2013 power outages are less likely to affect you if you have your own solar system.\n**Interested in a $0 electrical bill?

        "raw_content": "Rage Free\nDanny\t4 Comments\tShare\nPeople are always asking me what it is like to be clean in our scene. They wonder how I feel amidst the rage, curious as to how I stay awake. I cherish the organic pleasures of the beats through my soul. Jams creatively layered with the sounds of multiple instruments evoke special feelings in my spirit. These emotions can\u2019t adequately be explained in words. Perhaps my imagination travels to a far corner of the earth or perhaps I get the feeling that everything in the world is exactly as it\u2019s supposed to be. When a nasty jam gives me goose bumps, I find myself looking up to the sky just to say, \u201cThank you\u201d! Live music is an inherently joyful and emotional experience.\nLive Music and Strong Emotion\nHowever, I must admit that the rhythms and melodies weren\u2019t always the source of my ecstasy at concerts. Three and a half years ago, I almost didn\u2019t notice the sweet sounds blaring from the speakers. I was far more focused on my checklist of substances than experiencing the music. I spent most shows in the bathroom, asleep in the seats or circling the lot looking for that guy that had what I thought would enhance my experience. I could not imagine a life where it would be enjoyable seeing shows and going to festivals clean. I needed to be shown the way.\nThe Disco Biscuits show (McCarren Pool, Brooklyn \u2013 8/15/07), where I was adopted by an attractive group of clean music lovers, is etched vividly in my memory. That day\u2019s experience became the springboard for my new way of life: clean in the scene. We danced our asses off together celebrating our freedom from the bondage of substance and its accompanying isolation. I\u2019m so grateful that those kids lovingly and enthusiastically illustrated just how much fun could be had raging free. I joined the Digital Buddhas, a group of clean and sober Disco Biscuit fans and began carrying this message nationwide.\nI come to every show and festival in the mindset of how I can help. I look forward to giving hugs, smiles, compliments, and encouraging words to all those I come in contact with. Whether I\u2019m helping with the rain fly on a tent, giving assistance with the sale of feather earrings, or being company to someone who got separated from their friends, I\u2019m always available to assist my peers. My reward? The feeling I get from brightening someone\u2019s day.\nIf you get to know me, I\u2019m a big proponent of developing real relationships and intimate friendships. I like to foster an environment where it is okay to be honest about how you feel even when things are less than beautiful in that moment. I always say that we go through a whole range of emotions while participating in shows and festivals. Not everyone will be there to listen and encourage you while you are down. I feel like the rock people can always depend on in times of need. I am truly grateful to be able to support people when they are struggling with different issues.\nJamcare\nAt the Big-UP, I was blessed to be of service, in cooperation with the festival medical team, in operating \u201cdrug-cool-down zones\u201d. We set up a safe environment for festival-goers who had too much in their systems. As a result, they didn\u2019t have to get strapped down to a stretcher and wake up in the hospital with a huge bill (or their parents by their side ready to take them to rehab). We prevented them from getting dangerously dehydrated, lost in the forest, or taken advantage of. We hugged those kids, gave them some glitter, played them music and showered them with happy and loving vibes until their faculties returned. A few hours later, they were able to return to their friends and enjoy the rest of the festival. When they came down and realized what had happened, they were incredibly thankful.\nYou may not believe it, but I truly don\u2019t have anything against drugs or alcohol. I have nothing but empathy for those who indulge. Although I have spent time under the influence, at many shows, I simply prefer having a clear and unadulterated experience. For me, it\u2019s partying hard and being able to remember it all the next day.\nMuddy River Jam Festival\nI don\u2019t think that I would have gotten to this place, so comfortable in the scene, surrounded by so many substances, without the support and community of the Digital Buddhas and other clean kids at shows. Meeting anybody in recovery is like reuniting with a survivor of a near fatal accident. Moreover, the identification shared among kids who got clean in the scene brings about a blissful, if not spiritual, experience. We truly feed off each others\u2019 gratitude and nourish a bond we once found in drugs. We graciously welcome newcomers to these meetings and give them the hope that they too can live and enjoy raging without the use of drugs. We tell them that after some time and doing some good things for ourselves and others that the desire and obsession to use drugs will certainly be lifted from them as it has been for us. Since that first experience at Mcarren Pool, I\u2019ve had the opportunity to spread the clean love at hundreds of shows all around the country and don\u2019t plan on slowing down any time soon.\nTaking a Break from Alcohol",

(AP Photo/Eugene Hoshiko)\nTOKYO \u2014 Led by a congratulatory tweet from the prime minister, Japan reveled in Naomi Osaka's dramatic Australian Open win on Sunday.\nOsaka beat Petra Kvitova 7-6 (2), 5-7, 6-4 on Saturday to claim a second consecutive Grand Slam singles title. The 21-year-old Osaka also became the first tennis player from Japan to reach No. 1 in the rankings.\nOsaka was born in Japan \u2014 her mother is Japanese, her father is Haitian \u2014 and she moved to New York at age 3.\n\"What an impressive performance,\" Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe tweeted. \"Congratulations to Naomi Osaka on winning the Australian Open! \"\nOsaka's grandfather, who lives in the remote fishing village of Nemuro on Japan's northernmost island of Hokkaido, said Sunday he was relieved.\n\"My blood pressure is up,\" 74-year-old Tetsuo Osaka said. \"I'm really proud of how she won. She is so dear to me.\"\nWhen asked he was going to give her a congratulatory gift, Tetsuo Osaka said he hoped to be on the receiving end of a gift from his granddaughter now.\nBeyond dignitaries and relatives, average fans took pride in Osaka's win.\n\"As a Japanese person, I'm very proud,\" said 28-year Satoshi Mizutani, who works in finance. \"She showed a lot of character in coming back after dropping the second set. I think she is an inspiration to young people in Japan who can learn to do whatever they want if they work hard for it.\"\nOsaka has been a star in Japan since she beat Serena Williams in the U.S. Open final last year. She became the first woman to win back-to-back majors since Williams in 2015.\nHer performance at the Australian Open has topped daily news coverage in Japan.\n\"Osaka becomes first Japanese Australian Open champion, Heading to World No. 1,\" read the headline of the Nikkansports online edition.\nOsaka's results on the court and her quirky sense of humor have sent her popularity skyrocketing, and her list of endorsements now includes major brands like Adidas, Nissan, Yonex, Citizen, Nissin and Shiseido.\nOsaka's victory at the U.S. Open was the first Grand Slam singles title by either a man or woman of Japanese nationality.\nKimiko Date reached the semifinals of the Australian Open in 1994, the 1995 French Open and Wimbledon in 1996 but never made it to a Grand Slam final.\nOn the men's side, Kei Nishikori was runner-up at the 2014 U.S. Open, losing to Marin Cilic in the final.\nOsaka's rise to the top of the tennis world couldn't come at a better time. With the 2020 Tokyo Olympics just over a year away she could become the face of the Games.\n\"It would be fantastic to see her represent Japan,\" said Daisuke Aizawa said. \"I think she would be the favorite to win gold and that would be a huge boost for Japan.\"\nWhen asked about being the face of the Olympics, Osaka was her usual quirky self.\n\"Yikes! if that happens, I'd be very honored,\" Osaka said. \"Hopefully for their sake, they don't do that.\"\nAP Business Writer Yuri Kageyama contributed to this report.",

        "title": "Sportsmen Bassmasters: Articles --> Rookie Tips",
        "raw_content": "Tips for the \u201cRookie\u201d Tournament Angler\nBass anglers new to tournaments often feel confused about the whole process and don\u2019t know where to find accurate information about their individual rights and responsibilities. In particular, they are apprehensive about their role as a Boater or Non-boater and what is expected of them as they fish with a stranger. This article will attempt to consolidate some of the \u201cunwritten\u201d rules of the game and provide guidance for the new tournament angler.\nFirst of all, let\u2019s define the type of tournament being fished. This will determine many of the conventions of responsibility between the Boater and Non-boater. All are very different in how things will run, but all have some fundamental issues in common.\nPro/Am Tournament - This is a very high profile money tournament that is professionally organized and involves a \u201cprofessional\u201d who makes all the decisions regarding areas to fish and has full control of the boat at all times. The \u201camateur\u201d is usually just along for the ride and has no say in where the boat goes. He just has to do the best that he can from the back of the boat.\nPartner Tournament - This is usually a money tournament at a somewhat lower level than the Pro/Am tournament. The \u201cpartners\u201d usually are well known to each other and have \u201cpaired\u201d up as a team for the express purpose of fishing the tournament. As a rule, they fish as a team and share boat control, fishing time, decisions as to where and how to fish, and all expenses.\nDraw Tournaments - These usually involve a blind draw of partners for that particular tournament. Partners are usually expected to share expenses and fishing time 50/50, but are fishing as individuals. Each is responsible for his own catch. This is the type tournament normally fished by the amateur club angler and will be the focus of this article\u2019s discussions.\nCommunicate! This is number one on the list of shared responsibilities and is the one area that can make or break a successful fishing outing. Speak up! Don\u2019t be intimidated by a more experienced angler! Failure to communicate with your partner is the easiest way to create hard feelings between the anglers and ruin a successful tournament. On the other hand, good communications between the two anglers will almost always avoid most problem situations and leads to a pleasant day for all. When we speak of communication, we mean ADVANCE communication. Yelling at the other person after the fact is never any help.\nBe on time! Be ready at the appointed time and place with gear packed, lures tied on, food and bathroom stops out of the way, and nothing to do but dump the boat and go fishing. A good rule of thumb (most tournament rules require this) is to be on the water, ready to go at least 30 minutes prior to tournament start time. This provides time for rule number one - COMMUNICATION . Last minute strategy can be worked out while all the others are scrambling for position at the boat launch site.\nPay your fair share of the expenses. In almost all cases, all expenses, including the tow vehicle, should be shared equally between both anglers. For the person new to this scene, it may be very surprising to see how much it costs to run a pro-style bass rig in tournament conditions. A bass boat with a 150 HP motor will generally consume fuel at a rate of 3 miles per gallon at 60 MPH. While most modern outboard engines are now oil injected, it still is a significant expense that must be considered. A typical tournament day will consume at least one quart of TCW III oil at two to three dollars a quart. A tow vehicle capable of towing a fiberglass bass boat usually gets about 10 miles per gallon and never more than 15. Everything considered, a typical tournament day at the lake is going to cost around thirty to fifty dollars in gas and oil alone. The costs of owning and insuring the boat itself are never considered and are the sole responsibility of the boater. As all situations are different, this is one of the most critical topics in the communication processes and should be discussed ahead of time.\nReview the tournament rules ahead of time. This protects your rights and prevents misunderstandings and disqualificatons. If one angler commits an act which the other thinks is against the rules, talk it out together before filing a complaint. Most of these incidents are simple misunderstandings and can be settled quietly at the time. If it leads to a formal complaint to the tournament committee, hard feelings will probably linger forever. Fishing, particularly tournaments at the club level, should never be the reason for a lifelong grudge against a fellow angler.\nFishing time. In most draw tournaments, the boater and non-boater share the fishing time on a 50/50 basis. This means that the non-boater gets to decide where to fish and has control of the boat 50% of the time. Since most tournaments are eight hours, each angler is entitled to four hours of fishing his or her water from the front of the boat. Again, communication is critical. Some of the most common ways to split time are:\n1. 4/4 split. Control of the first four hours to one angler and the last four to the other. This works well when the anglers have different fishing styles and their \u201cspots\u201d are a considerable distance apart.\n2. Two hour splits. This is another version of the 4/4 option and is popular with some anglers as it prevents a person from being discouraged when they haven\u2019t been particularly successful during their period. There still is a chance for catch up during the second two hour period. This only works when there isn\u2019t a great distance between the anglers \u201cspots\u201d and time won\u2019t be wasted running back and forth across the lake.\n3. One hour splits. This can be a very effective way to share the time when the same tactics and methods are used and \u201cspots\u201d are not a factor. An example of this is fishing docks or well defined weedlines.\n4. \u201cI fish my spots and you fish yours\u201d. This method is used when the \u201cspots\u201d are generally in the same areas and the \u201cplan\u201d has shown that it is a more efficient use of time to cover the area rather than race back and forth across the lake. Keep in mind, however, that time allocations may not work out equally with this method.\n5. \u201cYou run the boat and I\u2019ll fish\u201d Some non-boaters prefer to avoid the distraction of running an unfamiliar boat. If this is the case, the boater is allowed to control the front all day. Keep in mind though, that just because the non-boater relinquishes the front, he still has the right to determine the \u201cspots\u201d during his four hours.\n6. Any combination of the above is acceptable as long as the anglers discuss it in advance and both agree that it is a fair and equitable plan. As each situation is different, the \u201cplan\u201d should account for each angler\u2019s experience and knowledge of the lake and current fishing conditions. It makes no sense for an angler who has never been on the water before to insist on wandering aimlessly during his/her four hour period when the other angler has been \u201cliving\u201d on the lake forever and knows where all the fish are. If you draw a partner who insists on his \u201cright\u201d to wander all over the place, grit your teeth and bear it. Who knows, you just might stumble on a great new honey hole that no one else has ever found.\nIn the absence of a \u201cplan\u201d ahead of time, it is generally assumed that the boater has the first four hours and the non-boater the last four hours.\nHandling of the fish. Handling fish is the sole responsibility of the angler who caught them. Don\u2019t try to be a good guy and \u201chelp\u201d the other angler with fish unless specifically asked. Generally speaking, only bad things happen if you handle the other person\u2019s fish without permission. For example, if you attempt to \u201clip\u201d the fish for the other person and accidentally drop it back into the water, both of you are going to feel extremely bad and hard feelings will result. For this reason, many tournaments prohibit any handling of the fish by anyone other than the angler who caught them.\nOn the other hand, be ready to net the fish (if allowed by the rules) if the other person requests it. This can be tricky. Everyone has his own ideas about the best way to net a fish and tensions can mount rapidly if you aren\u2019t doing it the way the other person thinks it should be done. This is another good item to discuss before the situation arises on the water.\nUse good fishing courtesy. Generally speaking, the person in the front of the boat gets the first cast at the prime structure. The person in the back should never cast across the line of the person in front to reach a prime target (and vice versa) unless it has been discussed ahead of time. Some people are sticklers for details and get upset if the imaginary line (usually 90 degrees out from the center of the boat) is crossed by the other angler. Again, good communication will sort this out before the fishing ever starts. A good rule of thumb to follow is for the angler in the back to wait for the angler in the front to cast, then cast somewhere behind. If this is done, no one will ever complain.\nAlthough technically not required, good sportsmanship suggests that the front seater leave a portion of the structure untouched so that the back seater has a reasonable chance at a fish.\nIn waters that are obviously unsuitable for fishing from the back, such as flipping and pitching narrow channels or creek arms, it is common courtesy to invite the other angler up front if space on the deck allows.\nBe good ambassadors for the sport of Bass Fishing. Never do anything that will bring discredit upon yourself and boating partner and/or other Bass Anglers. Examples of this are:\n1. Approach the bank from a 90 degree angle and come off plane far enough away to prevent any wake damage to shoreline property.\n2. Don\u2019t fish the immediate area where people are gathered and having their own fun. This includes docks where people are swimming, sitting, sunbathing, fishing, or just generally hanging out.\n3. Don\u2019t encroach on other people\u2019s fishing area. If they got to the \u201cspot\u201d first, swallow your disappointment and go somewhere else. This includes the general public as well as other tournament competitors. Most tournaments have well established rules as to how close you can come to a fellow competitor. Know the rules and don\u2019t be afraid to tell the other boat if you feel they are encroaching on your territory. Don\u2019t jump in front of another fisherman who is running a weedline or line of docks, even if you are \u201ctechnically\u201d not within the defined area of exclusion from the other boat. If there is any doubt about what direction they are working, ask them.\n4. Keep your trash in the boat with you and get rid of it later in the proper manner. If possible, pick up any trash you find, both on the water and around the boat ramp. Try to leave the environment cleaner after you have gone than it was when you arrived.\n5. If you damage someone\u2019s property, stop and talk to the owner and offer to pay for whatever it costs to fix it. If the owner is not at home, leave a note. Make sure to retrieve any snagged hooks, lures, or tangled line and take them with you.\n6. Be familiar with and obey all the laws and regulations applicable to the local body of water. This includes the laws that give you the right to fish around and under docks and other \u201cprivate\u201d property.\n7. Treat the fish gently and do everything possible to insure their continued survival.\nProbably the best possible advice in this area is: Think back to all the incidents that you have witnessed in the past that you thought were stupid, senseless, dangerous, irritated you, or just plain made you mad, then DON\u2019T REPEAT THEM!\nBoater\u2019s Responsibilities\nWhile most boaters tend to be more experienced at the tournament scene, it happens sometimes that a person\u2019s first time at this is with a boat. Just because a person can afford a nice rocket ship that will do 70 MPH, it doesn\u2019t mean that they have been blessed with the wisdom and experience of the ages. In many cases, an inexperienced boater can cause more problems than anyone else.\nMake sure the boat is mechanically sound and ready to go. This means that it is full of gas and oil, the batteries are fully charged, and all the equipment is functional. Examples of this are: live wells clean, aerators functional, trolling motor in good shape, depth finders working, functional kill switch, sufficient life preservers, fire extinguishers, and other safety equipment on board, etc.\nA common mistake seen at all tournament levels is the failure of the boater to provide a life preserver for the non-boater. Sometimes assumptions are made that the non-boater will bring his/her own favorite device. Granted, this is more often the mistake of an experienced tournament boater who is just trying to minimize the amount of \u201cjunk\u201d in the boat, but legally, it is the boater\u2019s responsibility. Keep in mind that this is grounds for disqualification from the tournament for BOTH anglers. Again, good advance communication with the non-boater will avoid any problems in this area.\nFollow the rules. Any tickets or citations for expired licenses, missing or malfunctioning safety equipment, or exotic vegetation on the boat and/or trailer is the responsibility of the boater. A ticket for speeding or running a slow zone is usually grounds for automatic disqualification from the tournament for both anglers.\nGive the non-boater a \u201ccheck out\u201d of the boat ahead of time. If possible, during pre-fishing, get the non-boater up front so they can become familiar with the handling characteristics of the trolling motor and depth finders. This will avoid problems during the tournament when time is critical.\nExpenses. While this is a shared responsibility, most non-boaters will expect the boater to initiate the discussion on expenses. Start this discussion early in the planning process and be fair with the non-boater. Don\u2019t try to get them to make your boat payment or insurance costs for you. If you make a habit out of \u201cgouging\u201d the non-boaters, the word will get out quickly about what a cheapskate you are. On the other hand, don\u2019t try to do it all yourself. Non-boaters have certain responsibilities and need to pay their fair share. Keep a written record of the gas and oil expenses for both the tow vehicle and the boat and split the cost down the middle. Keep it up front and fair and it will be a non-issue.\nDon\u2019t be a \u201ccowboy\u201d. Don\u2019t operate the boat in a manner that is dangerous or makes the non-boater uncomfortable. Always keep in mind that they are sitting in the other seat, totally helpless as you are skipping the top of three foot waves with the throttle wide open. What seems perfectly fine to you may be scaring the non-boater out of his wits\nLeave plenty of time for the return run. Only you know how much time it takes to get back across the lake in your boat. Remember that it will always take more time to get back in the afternoon than it took early in the morning when you were the only boat on the lake. With the afternoon boat traffic in slow zones, water skiers, sail boat regattas, wind whipped waves, dead batteries, and other things too numerous and scary to name, there is always the probability that something will go wrong to make you late for the weigh-in.\nNon-boater\u2019s Responsibilities\n99% of the time, the angler\u2019s first experience in a tournament situation is as a non boater. While on the surface it may seem like all that needs to be done is to show up and enjoy the day, there is much to consider. If the non boater is not prepared and is not aware of the basics, this first experience may very well turn out so bad that it will be the last time he ever tries it.\nBe prepared. If you have never been on the lake before, do your homework. Invest in a good quality map and study it well in advance of the first time on the water. Solicit advice from your friends who may have fished the water before and talk to the local experts. Bait shop owners and tackle store salespersons are good references. Have a game plan in mind and discuss it with the boater. If you show up expecting to be \u201cguided\u201d by the boater, he/she will most likely ignore you for the entire day and you both will be upset and angry with each other.\nExpenses. If the boater has not already brought the subject up, YOU DO IT! Some boaters are reluctant to talk about this and will assume that you will do the fair thing after the day is complete. While this works out OK most of the time, eventually hard feelings will result. It is always better to talk about this before the trip starts. ALWAYS make sure that you have sufficient money (in cash) to cover more than your expected share of the costs. Treat this like a fancy dinner at a great restaurant. When in doubt, be prepared to pay for the entire evening and be pleasantly surprised when the bill comes in at half of what is expected. Above all, don\u2019t quibble over nickels and dimes. If you figure the bill for gas and oil to be exactly $13.86, give the boater $15.00 and walk away smiling. When in doubt, or if it hasn\u2019t been discussed earlier, the non boater\u2019s share of a day on the water in a full sized bass boat is about $20.00.\nDon\u2019t try to take the entire tackle store with you. Nothing frustrates a boater more than to see the non-boater show up with a dozen rods, a half dozen tackle boxes, three or four plastic shopping bags, and enough food and drink to feed you both for several days. Most boats have just enough storage space for the boater\u2019s gear to be stowed in the built-in compartments. This means that the floor space is all that is left for your gear. Plan ahead for what you might need and take only what you think is necessary for that particular day on the lake. Usually, six to eight rods are sufficient and all necessary tackle should fit into one medium-to-large athletic duffel bag. In addition to this, a small \u201csix pack\u201d size cooler with your lunch, a couple of soft drinks, plus a rain gear package is acceptable. A rule of thumb here is \u201cIf you can\u2019t carry it all in one trip, it is probably too much\u201d.\nMost boaters will gladly share whatever they have with you if it turns out that the fish are biting something that you didn\u2019t bring. Most, however, will draw the line at lending you one of their six dollar crankbaits if you have already lost all yours to hungry northern pike using four pound test line. Keep in mind that this is a two way street and you should be willing to share your \u201chot\u201d bait with the boater if the situation is reversed. If you do \u201cborrow\u201d an expensive piece of gear and then lose it, make sure to replace it or reimburse the other person for the full value.\nHelp with the launch/recovery. Generally speaking, the boater will expect you to back the rig into the water while he/she backs the boat off the trailer. You will then be expected to drive the rig to the parking lot and secure it for the day. After the day is done, you will be expected to hike up to the parking lot, get the rig and back it into the water to load the boat. If you don\u2019t know how to do any of this, SPEAK UP. The last thing the boater wants is some rookie tearing up the equipment. Some things to look out for are:\n1. NEVER ASSUME ANYTHING! This is a very dangerous situation and people and equipment can be seriously hurt if you move the vehicle before everything is ready to go.\n2. Keep the keys in your pocket. Don\u2019t toss them from one boat to another or from the dock to the boat. If you have them in your hand and slip getting into or out of the boat, they most likely will go flying into the water and will never be seen again. If the boater is smart, he/she will have an extra set stashed in the boat, but many people seem to forget this critical item.\n3. If the tow vehicle is equipped with a clutch, it is extremely easy to \u201csmoke\u201d it when pulling the boat out of the water. If you have any doubts about your ability to handle this, have the boater do it. They will be familiar with the quirks and personality of the tow vehicle and can get it done without damaging the equipment.\nBe careful with the boat. Treat it as if it were your Father\u2019s and remember he\u2019d have your butt if you messed it up.\n1. Most bass boats cost as much or more than the average new car and are the pride and joy of the boater.\n2. If you are a smoker, ask before lighting up. Most boaters understand and will give permission. Even with permission, make sure not to flip the ashes on the seat covers or grind the butts into the carpet. Don\u2019t throw the butts overboard. Douse them thoroughly and stash them in your tackle box.\n3. Wipe your feet before you climb into the boat. No one likes to look at goose and duck droppings on his carpet for eight hours.\nEspecially important are the seats. Treat them as if they were the brand new living room sofa that your mother has been saving up for all of her adult life.\n1. DON\u2019T WALK ON THE SEATS! Even if the boater does it, ask permission first.\n2. If you are one of those who likes to strap sharp things to your belt such as scissors, nail clippers, keys, or anything else that will rip a gash in the upholstery as you sit down, get rid of it. Buy a pair of those pants with pockets all up and down the legs if you need to keep tools handy.\nBe assertive. If you want to try a particular area or technique, let your wishes be known. It is not the boaters responsibility to be a mind reader and try to guess what you are thinking. If he is running the trolling motor too fast or slow for your style, talk to him. When it is your time to control the boat and it is looking like the boater has conveniently \u201cforgotten\u201d to look at his/her watch, speak up. Unfair as it may seem, there are some boaters who will intentionally camp out at the front of the boat and ignore you as long as you are timid enough to let them get away with it.\nBoat control. When it is your turn at the front, always keep in mind that a boat doesn\u2019t handle like a car. When going slowly, the boat will pivot around the big motor (it is acting like a big rudder). If you forget this, you will bang the back of the boat into the corner of the dock as you make the turn. Wind makes matters worse. It always seems to be blowing in the direction that will put you into the rocks if you let your mind wander for just a second.\nWhen you are in the back, keep an eye out for these hazards and be prepared speak up and/or use your hands and feet to keep the boat out of trouble if the boater has a mental lapse.\nIf you break it, you pay for it. This applies to broken trolling motor props and steering cables, rods that you step on, or tackle boxes that you kick overboard. A couple of the common mistakes are:\n1. Running the troll motor into the rocks. This will snap a prop blade off in a split second. Hopefully, the boater will have a spare on board and the worst harm that is done is 10 minutes fishing time lost and $20 out of your pocket for the new one. If there isn\u2019t a spare, the day is basically ruined.\n2. Snapping a troll motor steering cable. This happens when the motor gets tangled up in the weeds and the operator \u201cforces\u201d a turn. The only safe way to clear the prop is to pull the motor up and clean the mess off by hand. If you do bust the cable, it means the motor is done for the day and it will probably cost you at least $100 to get it fixed. Needless to say, this is one sure way to get on the bad side of the boater (probably for life).\nPay attention to where you are. The non-boater should be the navigator. Keep the map handy (but don\u2019t let it blow overboard), watch for landmarks, and point out the upcoming turns. It is easy to get disoriented on the lake and sometimes the boater can loose track of just exactly where you are. You can be a big help if you can direct him/her back in the right direction without stopping and getting the map out. Also, keep an eye out for any hazards on the lake such as reefs, sand bars, logs, stumps, rocks, or anything else that can rip the lower unit off the boat. Don\u2019t assume the boater sees the same things that you do. It is much better to point out the hazard and steer clear than to hit it in ignorance and loose the entire day of fishing waiting for the rescue squad to show up (if you are lucky). Along this same line, keep the boater advised of any slow zones or speed limit areas coming up. If you blow through one, you are disqualified right along with the boater.\nFollow the rules. In most cases, you can get yourself and the boater disqualified by doing something stupid like taking your life jacket off or standing up while the big motor is still running. Make sure you get the jacket on and your butt in the seat when its time to run to the next spot. The boater isn\u2019t supposed to engage the big motor until this is done. You can really get him mad in a hurry if you take your sweet time getting settled. Remember, you only have a limited amount of time during the tournament. Any time spent screwing around when you are not either fishing or running wide open is wasted time for both of you.\nWhen the boater says it\u2019s time to run, stop fishing and get ready to go. The boater knows how much time it takes to get back (or should) and doesn\u2019t need an argument from you at this time. If you insist on \u201cjust a couple more casts\u201d, you could put both of you in jeopardy of disqualification by arriving late for weigh-in.\nHelp with the cleanup. After you have pulled the boat out of the water, the boater will be busy tying it down and getting things ready to tow. You need to spend this time cleaning up the trash, making sure the boat and trailer are free of weeds, and insuring that your gear is secured.\nSummary. Those new to the tournament scene have a lot to think about as they prepare for their first outing with a new partner. By following a few common sense guidelines, both anglers will have a lot more fun and the chance for success is greatly increased. By no means is this a \u201crule\u201d book that must followed exactly. Probably a better description of this is simply a collection of \u201cexpectations\u201d that, if followed, may make the experience more enjoyable for all concerned.\nIf you follow rule number one and COMMUNICATE with your fishing partner, it will most likely turn out to be a pleasant and enjoyable day on the water.",

Symptoms will start showing up 4 days after exposure and last up to 4 weeks. Once you\u2019re affected the following outbreaks tend to be milder. With or without symptoms, genital herpes is being spread through unprotected sexual contact.\nThis infection is characterized by;\nPainful, blistering sores on the genitals\nBurning, itching and painful discharge from either the penis or vagina\nPainful urination has also been noted.\nFlu-like symptoms have also occurred with genital herpes.\nIt can also be symptomless.\nIn Women lesions will show up on the Vagina including clitoris and other parts of the vulva, anus and buttocks.\nIn Men, same lesions but on the Penis head, shaft and other genital regions including thigh and buttocks.\nThis STD can be transferred with direct contact with the skin surface that is infected. This includes both Intercourse and Oral Sex. Transfer from genital to genital, genital to mouth and mouth (HSV-1/Oral Herpes) to genital. Not a good idea to have sex when someone has a Herpes outbreak including Genital and Oral. Practicing safe sex should be respected at all times.\n\u25ba Herpes Testing at Lab Near You\n\u25ba Home Genital Herpes Test\nThere is no cure for genital herpes, but antiviral drugs are available to help manage the symptoms.\nThe most popular medications are:\nIf flair-ups still occur, these pills can lessen the symptoms and their duration too.\nAccording to the CDC (Center for Disease Control) the people infected with HSV-2 Genital herpes in the United States is around 16 percent of 14 to 49 year olds. Apparently 80 percent of people infected don\u2019t know they are and with 3 quarters of a million new cases a year this is turning into an uphill battle.\nWorldwide cases of Oral Herpes HSV- 1 infection is more than 3.7 billion people under the age of 50, or 67% of the world\u2019s population according to the WHO (World Health Organization).\nHerpes have become the most common type of STD in the world. There is no cure and the experts are in no hurry to develop a vaccine. Your best bet to not contract this STD is to use prevention and practice safe sex. Example; If someone has a lesion on their mouth its best not to kiss them or have them perform Oral Sex on you until the breakout is dormant again and so on. Common sense can go a long way when trying to prevent this disease.\nCDC - https://www.cdc.gov/std/herpes/stdfact-herpes.htm\nWHO - http://www.who.int/news-room/detail/28-10-2015-globally-an-estimated-two-thirds-of-the-population-under-50-are-infected-with-herpes-simplex-virus-type-1\nWikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genital_herpes",

        "raw_content": "Doing Internet Research: Foreword\nThis excerpt is the foreword to the book Doing Internet Research: Critical Issues and Methods for Examining the Net from Sage Publications, Inc. (Newbury Park, CA). It is \u00a9 by Sage Publications and Steve Jones, all rights reserved.\nNo one ever said that change\nHad to make the kind of sense we swear\nIs only right\n-- Lynn Canfield/Area, Larger Than Life, 1990\nDon MacDonald and John Pauly, professors of communication at the University of Tulsa, developed and regularly taught a course titled \"Inquiry in Communication\" offered in that department. At the very start of the term they would challenge undergraduates to unfailingly ask \"So what?\" and \"Who cares?\" questions when the students would read research, and when the students would begin to plan research projects of their own. Those questions are critically important to research not merely because they should drive scholars to justify their work, nor simply because they may give us insight into the motivation(s) of scholarship, but, rather, they engage scholar and reader in a conversation about values.\nBut such questions continue to be easily dismissed when it comes to Internet research -- the Internet's very ubiquitousness (if only due to its coverage in the media) has ingrained in us its importance. Of course, many people do care about the Internet and what goes on within and through it, and well we should care. As a medium of communication new to us (newer than television, the former undisputed champion of research of assumed importance), a medium that intersects with everyday life in ways both strange and omnipresent, popular interest in the Internet is enormous, and not just in industrial countries, but worldwide.\nWe are still coming to grips with the changes we feel are being brought about by networked communication of the type so prominently made visible by the Internet. In some cases it is even possible that we feel change where there is not any, from anticipation bred by being accustomed as we are to its occurrence. Change is what motivated this book's creation, as did the frequency with which I find myself wondering if change makes sense in regard to the methods we have been using to study the Internet's convergence with modern life. It is the result of discussions with many scholars from a wide variety of disciplines who believe, as do I, that simply applying existing theories and methods to the study of Internet-related phenomena is not a satisfactory way to build our knowledge of the Internet as a social medium. Consequently, this is not a book that will (at least in any direct way) help people to use the Internet as a research tool. Rather, its goal is to assist in the search for, and critique of, methods with which we can study the Internet and the social, political, economic, artistic, communicative phenomena occurring within, through (and in some cases without, but nevertheless related to) the Internet. As Rice and Williams (1984) caution:\nWe need not jettison useful communication theories when we wish to understand the new media...we should take advantage...of the new media to further specify and modify those theories....The new media need to be included in traditional communication research, but we need to look at those traditional theories untraditionally. (p. 55, 80).\nRice's and Williams's call for interdisciplinarity in new media research is one that has been heeded by contributors to this volume, and one that I hope will continue to suffuse Internet research.\nDisciplinarity is useful for a variety of reasons, however, including that it provides a starting point and structure for systematic scholarship. Since another goal of the book is to help people get started...well, doing Internet research...structure and disciplinarity will be evident. Yet disciplinarity should never lead us to abandon inquiry. The instant it structures to the extent that it disengages curiousity, disciplinarity will ruin scholarship. We must keep asking: What are the methods that scholars are already using to study the Internet, what are ones that we could use but have not yet, what are the advantages and disadvantages to these methods and others? There is not yet a field known as \"Internet studies,\" though there may well be one before long. Though it is not a goal of this volume to create such a field, it has as one of its goals to get us to begin thinking about how we might go about systematically studying this medium. On the other hand, the last thing I would like to have happen is for the study of the Internet and related social phenomena to get systematized to the point of bureaucratic rigidity. There are no \"traditional\" methods for studying the WorldWideWeb, or e-mail, or Usenet, or, for that matter, anything Internet related.\nAs I have examined my own feelings during the making of this book, I have found myself less in favor of the formation of a field of study, in large part because we would do well to avoid what Stephen Jay Gould (1993) succinctly pointed out in an essay on field research:\nAll field naturalists know and respect the phenomenon of \"search image\" -- the best proof that observation is an interaction of mind and nature, not a fully objective and reproducible mapping of outside upon inside, done in the same way by all careful and competent people. In short, you see what you are trained to view -- and observation of different sorts of objects often requires a conscious shift of focus, not a total and indiscriminate expansion in the hopes of seeing everything. The world is too crowded with wonders for simultaneous perception of all; we learn our fruitful selectivities. (p. 213)\nThe Internet is a \"different sort of object\" (if it is, indeed, an object at all), and studying it does require a \"conscious shift of focus.\" However, I will hope that we can continously both shift focus and method in the pursuit of understanding, and hope that we do not fix our gaze one way or another, lest we fail to grasp the Internet's essential changeability.\nThere are, of course, methods that have been traditionally, and successfully, used to study other media, that are now being used to study the Internet, also with success. Ron Rice wrote in 1989 that \"research on the uses and implications of CMCS (Computer-Mediated Communication Systems) reflects a variety of disciplinary paradigms, technological distinctions, and evaluation approaches\" (p. 469). When it comes to Internet research, most of these are drawn from communication research, media studies, anthropology, sociology, literary criticism, cultural studies, psychology, political economy. Some are quantitative, some qualitative. Some are rooted in the social sciences, others in the humanities, while others still cross over such boundaries. Which are useful, which are not, which do we believe will contribute most to our knowledge of the Internet? Those are the kinds of questions with which contributors to this volume have grappled. I must say I hope they have been engaged, but not quite answered, for if there are answers that readily at hand, I may have been fooling myself that the study of the Internet is exciting and intriguing.\nOne might ask a priori: Why should we do Internet research? That question suffuses the work of contributors to this volume. Suffice to say for now that, whether or not one believes the hyperbolic claims about the Internet being the biggest thing since the invention of the wheel, the Internet is a medium with great consequences for social and economic life. To some extent it simply does not matter whether one is online or not -- one's life will be, in some way, for better or worse, touched by the Internet. As Rice noted in 1989, \"providing instruction, the delivery of health services, the retrieval of database information...the computerization of political campaigns\" are among the activities \"experiencing...convergence\" with computer technology (p. 469), a convergence accelerated by the Internet. In a few years in the early 1990s, with a certain rapidity and inexorability, the Internet became a medium as widespread in the public mind, if not the physical world, as television and radio before it. Like technologies preceding it, the Internet has commanded the public imagination. What that says about us is even more important than what it says about the Internet. And what command it has -- it is not often that a technology can so engage diverse interests in the public sphere. Consequently, the Internet matters, though precisely in what ways it is difficult to discern. It is my hope that you will find this book useful precisely as a guide to the means by which we can better that discernment.\nI will hope, too, that as we find out more about what the Internet means to us we will also find out what social life means to us. The Internet does not exist in isolation. To study it as if it was somehow apart from the \"offline\" world that brought it into being would be a gross mistake. Internet users are as much a part of physical space as they are cyberspace (more so, really, insofar as users' choices regarding place, identity, etc., are far more limited in physical space). As a result the notion that our research should be \"grounded\" takes on even greater significance when it comes to Internet research. That makes Internet research particularly interesting -- and demanding. Not only is it important to be aware of and attuned to the diversity of online experience, it is important to recognize that online experience is at all times tethered in some fashion to offline experience.\nThe bulk of research into the Internet has been essentially administrative, driven largely by the concerns of commercial interests seeking to get a grip on the demographics of online audiences in much the same way as that research is done on other media. Measures of web page \"hits,\" domain name growth, etc., give us in broad strokes some sense of the Internet's shape. But I am not convinced such measures tell us much about Internet use. For example, measuring the number of domain names registered tells us nothing about the uses to which those domain names are put. Commercial Internet users hoard domain names and often do not use them. It is a form of trademarking -- McDonald's not only reserves mcdonalds.com, but also hamburger.com, ronald.com, and so on. And often if they do use all of these names, they all lead to the same web page. Educational domains are probably responsible for more web content than commercial ones -- at my university, for instance, the top level domain uic.edu contains tens of thousands of pages strewn across hundreds of servers (*.uic.edu). And each student, staff and faculty member can, if they wish, have web pages on uic.edu, denoted by syntax like uic.edu/username. That may, however, not tell us about measures of Internet traffic either -- but can we now even achieve a reliable measurement of Internet traffic, given the proliferation of agens and bots, software-based browsing mechanism like the ones used by AltaVista, for instance, to search and catalog web sites? Those generate untold traffic -- not human traffic, however. How shall we account for it, and not simply measure it?\nThe point I wish to make is not that Internet research is difficult. That is obvious. Internet research, as I will discuss later in this book, must avoid being prescriptive. But it is extremely difficult for it even to be descriptive, given the ever-changing networks involved, the mutating software and hardware, and the elastic definitions. Writing in 1988, Williams, Rice and Rogers stated:\nAlthough we consider possible research methods for new media as mainly extensions of existing methods, we propose that the new media researcher should consider alternative methods, or even multiple methods, and to attempt a triangulation of methods. (p. 15)\nOne hope that we should have is that the Internet itself can serve as a medium of communication of the research we conduct, that the triangulation Williams, Rice and Rogers seek can occur, at least in some small part, by the publication, hyperlinking and communication of research findings online.\nThis collection may itself require some hyperlinking of a sort: It is far from exhaustive -- it is not even complete. Many disciplines are not considered in these pages; many methods are overlooked, and, in some cases, even the term \"method\" might be inappropriate. The goal of editing this volume never was to make it a complete one. In fact, I scarcely believe such completeness to be possible, just as I believe method itself should not solely drive inquiry. There is no one way, nor even a set of ways, to go about studying the Internet, just as there is no one way or set of ways to study social relations and processes. Another goal of this volume is to consider methodological issues that arise when one tries to study and understand the social processes occuring within the Internet, and, in a sense, without it, insofar as the Internet penetrates social life beyond its networks. The contributors to this volume do consider a broad range of methods, and have their intellectual roots in various disciplines.\nThey have, in fact, done such a good job I scarcely know what to add. The contributors were asked, in essence: What can a particular method, area of interest, mode of inquiry, way of asking questions, contribute to Internet research? Their responses move us several steps along toward discovering ways with which to engage this emergent social word. Their responses also raise additional questions, bring to light further issues, in some ways moving us several steps to one side and other (and, appropriately, in some cases back a step or two). As Ringer (1997) noted:\nthe \"intellectual field\" (is) a constellation of positions that are meaningful only in relation to one another, a constellation further characterized by differences of power and authority, by the opposition between orthodoxy and heterodoxy, and by the role of the cultural preconscious, of tacit \"doxa\" that are transmitted by inherited practices, institutions, and social relations.. (p. 5)\nIf this book manages to express some of those positions, then I believe it successful. It is my hope that this book will be but a beginning, that the steps we take here are part of a long walk that we are taking, talking all the while about cyberspace -- and life, generally.\nGould, S.

        "raw_content": "Extra \u00a31million Capital For Highland Road\nOn Thursday 9th March, the Council approved \u00a31million additional capital monies to be spent on Highland roads.\nThe Scottish Government, announced on 2 February 2017, an additional Capital Grant for Highland Council of \u00a32.046m for 2017/18 and members have agreed to allocate \u00a31million of this to roads.\nThe 2017 Strategic Timber Transport Fund (STTF), managed by Forestry Commission Scotland, is to offer \u00a37.85 million nationally of co-funding support to projects that strengthen public roads and reduce disruption by timber haulage. Highland Council is well placed to attract this match funding and would make every effort to secure this potential additional investment.\nThe Council is also working with the Scottish Road Works Commissioner to deliver improved co-ordination and co-operation with utility companies undertaking works on the public road. Deploying additional inspection resources will increase the monitoring and drive improvements in the standards of road works and reinstatements. Utility companies will be encouraged to minimise the disruption caused to the road using public by reducing the duration of works and, wherever possible, reinstating their works to a permanent standard at the same time.\nThe Council expects that this will reduce the number of reinstatement failures and help to maintain the integrity of the road surface.\nThe Council approved an additional \u00a324.520 million in December 2015 for roads, bridges and piers to be included in the Capital Plan, together with an additional provision of \u00a31.6 million for minor flood works over 10 years.\nBudget Leader Councillor Bill Fernie (Independent - Wick) said: \"We have already committed a significant amount of capital investment into our road infrastructure over the next few years and this is an opportunity to add to that investment and attract additional match funding.\"\nCouncillor Allan Henderson, Chair of Community Services Committee added: \"We have nearly 7,000 km of roads in the Highlands and this network is vital to our rural communities and lifeline services. Every penny invested in maintaining this critical network also helps to support our tourism and business economy as well as improve connectivity for everyone in the Highlands.\"",

In the process of creating the idea, taking into account the wishes of the client, we present our first ideas, wish will form the basis of the project.Working with our clients we transform our idea into sketches, renderings and drawings. When the design idea has been agreed, we will start working on comprehensive drawing, which is needed by the constructor. An essential part of our role is to work compactly with the interior subcontractors during the repair process.If our client asks (and we positively want to be), we will take care of designing and providing all the necessary furniture, d\u00e9cor and textile for the filling of complete design service and perfect result.\nOn our opinion, the most important is to understand the client. We need to feel in what atmosphere exactly that person and his family will live, love, maybe work comfortably. We believe that the perfect home is the one in which there is a feeling of peace, tranquility and joy. Welcoming and at the same time comfortable to be alone. It must be with special items as well as reflect the personality and lifestyle of the owner. While the modern world dictates fashion and imposes imaginary values, we create a natural space for those who appreciate the present.",

Cities host parades, department stores have sales, schools and the Federal Government close. Most of us are thankful for a day off. Rarely do we stop to think about the tremendous sacrifices made by those in the military community -- the risks they take and the burdens they carry. Rarely do we reflect on how families and lives are forever changed as a result of war.\nSince September 11, 2001, over 2 million men and women have deployed to fight the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Many of these men and women have deployed multiple times -- and many family members have suffered through multiple separations and reintegrations. Thus far 5,798 men and women have died during these wars and the number of those who have come home with significant physical injuries is approaching 40,000.\nIn addition to the thousands who must deal with physical injuries, many of our returning troops are coming home with the invisible -- but expected -- injuries of war including post traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury, depression and anxiety. Some studies suggest that as many as 35 percent of those who experience combat will eventually develop some symptoms of post traumatic stress. In addition, approximately 20 percent of those coming home will experience a traumatic brain injury as a result of their service. Sadly, a large number of those who suffer these invisible injuries fail to seek the care that they so need and deserve.\nLabels: military, PTSD, TBI, traumatic brain injury, US military",

His new album, Rei Momo, proves his fluency in the rhythms of the Caribbean and Latin America.\nByrne's concert last Thursday night was an energetic show of merengue, salsa, reggae, and Brazilian music. He played with a 12-member, 15-piece band and Brazilian singer Margareth Menezes.\nThe show opened with Menezes singing solo, backed by five drummers on a variety of drums. Then Byrne appeared on the stage with the rest of the band, all dressed in white. The band members are primarily musicians from Latin America or from the Latin musical community in New York.\nThe band consisted of a six-man horn section, percussion led by Milton Cardona, and two keyboardists. One song featured drums from the religious tradition of a few Cuban band members. These drums had names and were formally introduced by Byrne.\nEach song on Rei Momo is from a different style that borrows from Caribbean or Latin American rhythms. During the show Byrne refrained from announcing the \"style\" of each song before playing it, but after the second song, Byrne did refer to each song's origins by saying \"that was Brazilian. And this is not.\"\nThe best songs of the show were not restricted to one musical style. \"Independence Day\" (a cumbia) and \"Dirty Old Town\" (a mapeye) were the best, probably because they are among the better songs on the Rei Momo album. These two and \"Mr. Jones,\" from the Talking Heads' Naked album, worked well, combining the band's rhythms with Byrne's vocals and guitar.\nWhen the band members were not playing, they danced together on the raised stage behind Byrne. Byrne danced, too, but his movements seemed a bit unnatural compared to those who grew up dancing the samba and the bolero. The only time he seemed right at home was when they played \"Mr. Jones.\"\nIf Byrne seems to be, as he said, \"a musical cruise ship\" right now, visiting countries through their music and culture, it is not without sincerity; he obviously loves and admires the music. His concert was a jubilant expression of that fact.",

BT has signed two new energy deals that will mean that 96 per cent of its global operations are powered by renewable electricity, up from 81 per cent last year.\nThe deals also mean that EE, the UK\u2019s biggest mobile network which is part of BT, is now powered by 100 per cent certified renewable sources, such as wind farms and solar plants. This saves more than 100 thousand tonnes of carbon emissions a year, equivalent to introducing 4.5 million trees to the UK.\nBT has a long history of leadership on climate change stretching back more than twenty-five years. After the UN IPCC published its Global Warning Report in October 2018, BT announced its pledge to become a net zero carbon emission business by 2045. BT had already set a target to reduce its emissions by 87 per cent by 2030, setting itself on a path to help limit global warming to 1.5\u00b0C as recommended in the report.\nAndy Wales, Chief Digital Impact & Sustainability Officer commented, \u201cThe IPCC report showed the urgency of the task we all face to tackle climate change. We recently announced our pledge to become a net zero carbon emission business by 2045, and today\u2019s renewable energy deals mark another important step in reaching our ambitious sustainability goals. We hope that by leading by example we can inspire others to take action and drive the transition to a low carbon economy.\u201d\nLast year, BT signed a separate agreement with npower to supply the rest of EE\u2019s operations, including over 600 retail locations across the UK, with 680GWh of renewable electricity.\nBT\u2019s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint will help the Government reach its carbon reduction targets, outlined by the Climate Change Act, which set a long-term target of reducing emissions by 80 per cent from a 1990 baseline by 2050.\n2020 renewable energy target\nPrevious articleSpirent Delivers 802.11ax WLAN Testing to Accelerate Deployment of Wi-Fi 6\nNext articleOnePlus establishing its R&D facility at India\u2019s Hyderabad",

        "raw_content": "Recently I have blogged about the controversial interactive map created by the New York Journal News which showed the names and addresses of gun permit holders in two New York counties. I then followed this up with another posting about how the data on the map was substantially inaccurate. Both the map and its aftermath raise interesting issues about public data, open government and privacy rights.\nThis week, a New York court has given us more to think about on the issue of public government information and privacy. The New York Times sought access to an electronic copy of a database of the names and addresses of all residents of New York City who hold handgun licences. In Matter of New York Times Co. v. City of New York Police Dept., the appellate division of the New York State Supreme Court denied disclosure of the database notwithstanding that the information it contains is a matter of public record. The court stated: \u201cThe fact that Penal Law \u00a7400.00(5) makes the name and address of a handgun license holder \u201ca public record\u201d is not dispositive of whether respondent can assert the privacy and safety exemptions to FOIL [Freedom of Information Law] disclosure.\u201d The court went further, noting that this was so \u201cespecially when petitioners seek the names and addresses in electronic form.\u201d It also indicated that other case law supported the view that the disclosure of a person\u2019s home address \u201cimplicates a heightened privacy concern.\u201d\nThis decision is an interesting one in that it tackles head on the thorny problem of what to do with public record information that includes the personal information (names and addresses) of individuals. When made available in electronic form, this information can be used to create all manner of information maps (among other things) that might generate far greater privacy concerns than the original government record. The infamous gun permit map is an example of this. Consider also the Proposition 8 map \u2013 a map that plotted the names, addresses and donation amounts of all contributors to a campaign to ban gay marriage in California.\nOpen government and open data principles favour the disclosure of government information in digital \u201cre-usable\u201d formats to serve a variety of public purposes which include promoting transparency and accountability. While access to information legislation generally permits a government department or agency to refuse disclosure of third party personal information in response to an access request, this limitation does not apply to information that is already part of a public record. In Canada, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (which governs the private sector use of personal information) creates exemptions to rules around the collection, use and disclosure of \u201cpublicly available information\u201d. According to the regulations, this category of information expressly includes \u201cpersonal information that appears in a registry collected under a statutory authority and to which a right of public access is authorized by law\u201d. While it is true that the exemption is limited to instances \u201cwhere the collection, use and disclosure of the personal information relate directly to the purpose for which the information appears in the registry\u201d, given that the information appears in the registry for purposes of transparency and accountability, republishing the information would likely fit within those purposes. In any event, newspapers are largely exempt from the application of this law where personal information is collected, used or disclosed for journalistic purposes. The result is a significant gap in Canadian privacy law when it comes to public registry data.\nThe Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada is already aware of the problems that open government and open courts principles may raise when it comes to the electronic dissemination of \u201cpublic record\u201d information. For example, the Commissioner has issued guidelines to administrative tribunals to assist them in their decision-making around the online publication of decisions that might contain detailed personal information. Clearly the OPC is of the view that open online access can change the privacy equation.\nBalancing the interests of open government and privacy is a significant challenge \u2013 and not an easy one. I doubt we have heard the last on this issue.\nUpdate on Gun Permit Holder Information Map\nIn a recent blog post I wrote about the issues raised by the mapping of public information. The issue that prompted this blog post was the creation, by the Journal News of New York State, of a map featuring the names and addresses of all gun permit holders in two counties. The map prompted outrage although it merely represented data made available to the newspaper on an access to information request.\nA recent development in the story highlights another issue both with open data and with the mapping of public information. The Journal News reports that a substantial amount of the posted information was inaccurate. Apparently this was attributable to the fact that one of the two counties at issue did not require permit renewals, and thus contained a significant amount of outdated information. In fact, the data for this county was only about 25% accurate. The other county required renewals every five years, which made the data more current, though not entirely up-to-date.\nThe open data movement promises significant social and economic benefits. Making government data freely available in appropriate formats for reuse is meant to increase government transparency and accountability, and to provide individuals and the private sector with raw data for research or innovation. Many already use such information to create useful apps, or to develop information maps that place government data in an interactive and accessible geographic context.\nOne of the challenges, however, is ensuring that the data sets provided by government are accurate, complete and fit for the purpose to which they are put. Not only must governments ensure that they are providing current data and appropriate updates, they must also include the meta data necessary for users to understand the scope and limitations of the data set.\nWhere the data includes personal information (including home addresses) it would seem that the onus should be even higher on governments to ensure that the information being provided is current, or that the limitations of the data set are clearly identified. Of course, there is also an onus on the party using the information to ensure that they understand the limits of the data set.\nElectronic Commerce and Internet Law in Canada, 2nd Edition, CCH Canadian Ltd., 2012 (with Michael Deturbide).\nElectronic Commerce and Internet Law in Canada, 2nd Edition is a definitive resource on Internet and e-commerce law from Canada\u2019s leading IT law experts, Teresa Scassa and Michael Deturbide.With a Foreword written by Justice Thomas Cromwell of the Supreme Court of Canada, this latest edition\u2019s extensive coverage addresses the vast changes that have taken place in this dynamic and rapidly evolving field.Highlights in the new edition include:\n* New Copyright Act amendments\n* Trademark issues online\n* Online contracting, including browse wrap agreements\n* Personal information protection in the private sector\n* Software and e-business patents\n* Consumer protection online\n* Canada's new anti-spam legistlation\n* Online Anonymity\n* Regulation of online speech\n* Intermediary liability\n* Web-based competition\n* Internet domain names\nI recently blogged for FreeSpeechDebate.Org about free speech, ambush marketing and the London Olympics. The posting is available here:\nhttp://freespeechdebate.com/en/discuss/guilt-by-association-the-london-2012-olympics/\nOn July 12th the Supreme Court of Canada handed down five decisions on copyright law. Collectively these five judgments send a strong message as to the interpretation of the rights of both owners and users of copyright protected works.\nIn terms of owners\u2019 rights, two of the decisions deal with the scope of the economic right to communicate a work to the public by telecommunication. A third decision addresses the scope of the neighboring right of performers and makers of sound recordings to be remunerated for performances of these works in public or for their communication to the public by telecommunication. The core issue in Entertainment Software Association and Entertainment Software Association of Canada v. SOCAN was whether a tariff could be applied to music incorporated into video games downloaded over the internet. Music is frequently a part of video games, and the makers of video games negotiate the rights to include this music in their products. No separate tariff is applied when such games are purchased by consumers from brick and mortar stores. The issue in this case was whether when the games were sold over the internet as downloads, the songs were communicated to the public by telecommunication. This would implicate a separate economic right of the music copyright holders, and would thus eligible for the imposition of a tariff. Similarly, in Re: Sound v. Motion Picture Theatre Associations of Canada the issue was whether a right of remuneration for music that formed part of movie soundtracks, the use of which would already have been negotiated with the rights holders, was triggered by each time the movie was screened, streamed or broadcast In Rogers Communications Inc. et al v. SOCAN, the issue was whether music streamed over the internet to consumers \u201con demand\u201d was a communication to the public by telecommunication, to which a tariff could be applied.\nIn reaching its decisions in these three cases the Court demonstrated both a commitment to the \u201cbalancing\u201d approach it had initiated with its 2002 decision in Th\u00e9berge, and a concern that the Copyright Act be interpreted in a technologically neutral manner. The Court found that in the case of music incorporated into video games, the right to incorporate the music into the game had already been negotiated and paid for by the makers of the video games. The only distinction between the context in which the game was sold in stores and where it was sold over the internet was the manner in which the game was delivered to the consumer. According to the majority of the Court, \u201cit makes little sense to distinguish between the two methods of selling the same work.\u201d (at para 1). To decide otherwise, according to the majority, would \u201cviolate[] the principle of technological neutrality, which requires that the Act apply equally notwithstanding the technological diversity of different forms of media.\u201d(at para 2). In the context of online sales of the games, the internet functioned simply as a means of delivering the work to the customer who paid for the work. The majority rejected an approach that would allow for two fees \u2013 one for reproduction and one for communication \u2013 to be charged simply because of the mode of delivery chosen for the work. The decision has significant ramifications for any work that is made available online for legal downloading, whether it is a movie, game, musical work or electronic text.\nIn Rogers, the court distinguished between using the internet to download music files from the internet (which would be analogous to the purchase of a video game over the internet, and thus not subject to a separate royalty for communication to the public) and the streaming of music to customers over the internet. In the latter case, musical works were being communicated over the Internet, and these communications were to \u201cthe public\u201d notwithstanding the fact that \u201cpull\u201d technology was used such that the works communicated were dependent upon the choices of individual consumers. In reaching the decision the Court also emphasized the principle of \u201cbalance\u201d noting that such a balance \u201cis not appropriately struck where the existence of copyright protection depends merely on the business model that the alleged infringer chooses to adopt rather than the underlying communication activity. Whether a business chooses to convey copyright protected content in a traditional, \u201cbroadcasting\u201d type fashion, or opts for newer approaches based on consumer choice and convenience, the end result is the same.\u201d (at para 40). Thus in the case of consumers acquiring copies of musical or other works, the internet is used as a delivery mechanism and the work is not \u201ccommunicated\u201d in a broadcasting sense. By contrast, where the work is streamed, the act is one of communication in a manner that is equivalent to broadcasting.\nThe Court\u2019s decision in Re: Sound is along the same lines. The Copyright Act provides that performers and makers of sound recordings have a right of remuneration with respect to the performance in public or the communication to the public by telecommunication of their performances or sound recordings. The Act contains an exception; the definition of a \u201csound recording\u201d excludes \u201cany soundtrack of a cinematographic work where it accompanies the cinematographic work\u201d. On the face of it, this appears quite straightforward. The producers of a movie that is to include a musical work must clear the rights to use the work in the movie; the licensing fee would no doubt take into account the fact that the movie is intended to be shown in cinemas and made available for broadcast or other forms of communication to the public by telecommunication. Therefore, it is unnecessary to provide for additional remuneration for rights holders in these circumstances. This is, indeed, the interpretation adopted by the Supreme Court of Canada.\nThese decisions on the rights of copyright owners seem eminently sensible. They respect the right of the copyright owner to be remunerated for a commercial use of their work; at the same time, they resist what seems to have emerged as an industry practice to layer rights and royalties on single economic acts. The result is clear, straightforward, practical, and ultimately balanced.\nThe other two decisions of the Supreme Court of Canada dealt with the \u2018users\u2019 right\u2019 of fair dealing. Prior to the decision in CCH Canadian, fair dealing had been treated in Canada as a rather limited exception to the rights of copyright holders. In CCH Canadian, the Supreme Court of Canada established it as a users\u2019 right, and emphasized its role in maintaining the balance between public and private interests under the Copyright Act. In SOCAN v. Bell Canada, the Court was asked to consider the scope of fair dealing in relation to the practice of online music sites of providing previews consisting of short excerpts of musical works to customers searching for music to download from their sites. The collective societies sought a tariff that could be applied to such previews, arguing that they constituted a communication to the public by telecommunication of a substantial part of each work, thus engaging the economic rights of the copyright owner. The music providers argued that previews were consulted by customers as a form of research into the music they wished to purchase; as a result, they were fair dealing for the purposes of research under the Copyright Act. The unanimous Court ruled that these previews were fair dealing. They reiterated the view that fair dealing rights must not be interpreted restrictively, and maintained that \u201cresearch\u201d must be given a large and liberal interpretation. The Court rejected the idea that \u201cresearch\u201d could only refer to activities that led to the creation of new works or new knowledge. They maintained that \u201c[t]o do so would ignore the fact that the dissemination of works is also one of the Act\u2019s purposes, which means that dissemination too, with or without creativity, is in the public interest.\u201d (at para 21). The Court found that there was a low threshold for qualifying activities as \u2018research\u2019 and that this threshold was met in this case. On the issue of whether the dealing was \u2018fair\u2019, it had been argued that the music sites made previews available to customers for essentially commercial purposes, mitigating against a finding that the dealing was fair. However, the Court was of the view that it was the purpose of users that should be considered; in this case, they used the previews \u201cto help them research and identify musical works for online purchase.\u201d (at para 34). The Court examined the nature of the dealing, noting that the excerpts were of 30 to 90 second portions of the work and were of a quality inferior to the musical work available for sale. The Court also rejected an approach to evaluating the volume of dealing with the work on an aggregate basis (i.e., not in relation to the portion of each work accessed, but rather the aggregate number of excerpts accessed by consumers). They noted that such an approach might undermine the goal of technological neutrality, since it would mean that \u201cmost of what online service providers do with musical works would be treated as copyright infringement.\u201d (at para 43) The court noted as well that the previewing of musical works did not have a negative effect on the economic rights of the owner of copyright; rather, the goal of providing previews was to facilitate sales of the works, for which the copyright owners would be compensated.\nThe decision in Province of Alberta v. Access Copyright is likely to be the most controversial of the five decisions. This case addressed a dispute over what types of in-school copying activities could be captured by the tariff for reprography. As photocopying that was fair dealing would be excluded from the tariff, the dispute focussed on whether copies made of excerpts from text books for distribution to students for class instruction amounted to fair dealing. According to a 5-4 majority of the Court, it did. The majority declined to separate the teachers\u2019 purpose (instruction) from that of the students (private study). Instead, they characterized the role of the teachers as to support and facilitate the research and private study of their students. The majority wrote: \u201cIt seems to me to be axiomatic that most students lack the expertise to find or request the materials required for their own research and private study, and rely on the guidance of their teachers. They study what they are told to study, and the teacher\u2019s purpose in providing copies is to enable the students to have the material they need for the purpose of studying.\u201d (at para 23). The majority described this as a \u201csymbiotic purpose\u201d between students and teachers. They characterized the provision of photocopied materials to students by teachers as \u201can essential element in the research and private study undertaken by those students.\u201d (at para 25) Further, the majority rejected an interpretation of \u201cprivate study\u201d that focussed on the term \u201cprivate\u201d \u2013 in their view, this term \u201cshould not be understood as requiring users to view copyrighted works in splendid isolation.\u201d (at para 27)\nHaving found that the copying of excerpts was for \u201cresearch or private study\u201d the court next considered whether this dealing was \u201cfair\u201d. They found that it was. As in SOCAN v. Bell, they rejected an approach that considered the volume of dealing on an aggregate basis; instead each excerpt had to be considered in relation to the work from which it was taken. The majority found no reasonable alternative to the dealing; purchasing the books for each student was not a reasonable alternative given that only short excerpts were required. The Court also found the evidence of the economic impact of the copying on textbook publishers to be unconvincing. They noted that there was no causal link between a decline in textbook sales and the copying of short excerpts, and that other factors could more easily explain the decline in sales. Further, they found that it was not reasonable to assume that if the copying did not take place, that the books from which the excerpts were taken would be purchased for all students. The court noted that \u201cit is more likely that students would simply go without the supplementary information, or be forced to consult the single copy already owned by the school.\u201d (para 36).\nThis decision is of great significance in the educational sector because of its broad definition of \u201cresearch and private study\u201d and its interpretation of the teachers\u2019 role in their students\u2019 activities. It is also of great significance because it will guide the interpretation of \u201ceducation\u201d as a new basis for fair dealing introduced by the recently passed Bill C-11. The educational sector in Canada has long been squeezed for royalties by Access Copyright. Resistance to Access Copyright\u2019s licences has been growing, in part because of the under-inclusiveness of such licences when it comes to activities perceived as fair dealing. This decision by the Court sends a strong signal that fair dealing for the purposes research, private study, and now education must receive a large and liberal interpretation and must reflect the rights of users to access works, without payment of fees or need for a licence, to achieve these purposes.\nOverall, the five decisions are a strong indication that the Supreme Court of Canada remains committed to the approach to copyright law which it laid down in Th\u00e9berge and CCH Canadian. Their approach is pragmatic and straightforward. It rejects interpretations of the legislation that allow rights holders to layer economic rights in order to maximize revenues for discrete uses of works. It also makes it clear that fair dealing is a significant users\u2019 right that should be given a generous construction consistent with the public interest it serves. The Court\u2019s approach focuses on balance, and ultimately upon common sense.",

Assessments of GHG are now carried out at a number of different levels, including both the national and corporate level. Greater public participation may also help to reach climate change mitigation targets and one way to support this is to develop emissions accounts for local areas that are identifiable to those who live there. A new standard, the Global Protocol for Community-Scale Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GPC) was issued in 2012 and provides rules to facilitate an account for a whole community. This standard has been trialled through an application of the proposed accounting rules to an area of the West Highlands of Scotland. The accounting rules were clear to follow and the main practical difficulties were not with the standard itself but with the availability of sufficiently disaggregated data. The main weakness identified with the GPC is that it is predominantly focussed on providing a production-based inventory, whereas we suggest that community level inventories will be most relevant to community level action if the scope of the inventory focusses on the emission sources that can be influenced by the community.\nGreenhouse Gas Measurement and Management",

        "raw_content": "John Fleming Doesn't Know American History\nOver at The Hayride Congressman John Fleming has a piece in which he criticizes Barack Obama for leaving \"under God\" out of his recitation of the Gettysburg Address:\nWhether you learned the Gettysburg Address in school or saw it recited in a movie or a documentary, you heard these words: \u201cthat we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom.\u201d\nBut, in a new recording of Lincoln\u2019s famous speech, President Barack Obama said, \u201cthat the nation shall have a new birth of freedom,\u201d leaving out the phrase \u2018under God.\u2019 Liberals have a long-running disdain for the phrase \u201cunder God,\u201d and the Obama Administration has seemed to put religion in its crosshairs on several fronts, including threats on religious freedom in the military and through the Obamacare HHS mandate. But to leave out words penned and spoken by our Sixteenth President smacks of mean-spirited and inexcusable bias.\nIt was one thing for President Obama to be too busy to travel the 65 miles to Gettysburg for today\u2019s commemoration of the 150th anniversary of Lincoln\u2019s Gettysburg Address, but it is quite another to brazenly omit God from Lincoln\u2019s great speech.\nObama's recitation is one of a few dozen similar videos at LearnTheAddress.org, a website promoting Ken Burns' new documentary. Burns asked many famous Americans to record themselves reciting the Gettysburg Address.\nLincoln wrote at least five copies of the Gettysburg Address. These include the Nicolay Copy, which was a first draft; the Hay Copy, which Lincoln is believed to have written shortly after delivering the speech; and three other copies which Lincoln wrote at later times for charitable purposes. The Nicolay Copy and the Hay Copy do not include the words \"under God,\" but the three later copies do. Apparently, John Fleming didn't learn that in school nor from the movies.\nDid Lincoln ad-lib the phrase \"under God\" when he was giving the speech? I'm not sure and neither is history. Due to the technological limitations of the time, there is no audio recording of the actual speech.\nHowever, there is a prominently displayed notice on Ken Burns' website explaining that the organizers of this project asked Barack Obama to recite the Nicolay version of the Gettysburg Address.\nIf Fleming has a problem with Obama reciting the Nicolay version, then he should really take that up with the person who chose that version for Obama to read.\nI very much doubt that Obama was trying to make an anti-religious point by reciting the Gettysburg Address version that was chosen for him, just as I very much doubt that the irreverent comedian Louis C.K. was trying to make a pro-religious point by reciting the \"under God\" version that was chosen for him. Both versions were written as the Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln and both versions are, in that regard, historically accurate.",

But Seth has gone overboard with some of the new security measures, placing himself at odds with Les, Ashley and especially the staff. As a result, the Golds come perilously close to having an all-out mutiny on their hands. With the foundation of his business shaken to the core, the implications for Les could be life changing.

        "raw_content": "Parley: April 2013 - Engineering a Fundraising Career\nHow does one go from a career as a chemical engineer to one as a Canadian fundraising guru? It\u2019s a rewarding path\u2014just ask Jim Hilborn.\nLike many fundraisers, Jim Hilborn didn\u2019t start in the profession.\nBorn in Quebec in mining country, Jim grew up in Ottawa, where he excelled in his English studies. \u201cWhen I was in grade school, a teacher told my mother that it would be a pity if I didn\u2019t go into journalism,\u201d says Jim. \u201cShe laughed at the idea and said \u2018Oh no\u2014they don\u2019t earn any money and they drink too much!\u2019\u201d\nJim didn\u2019t lose interest in writing, but he followed his friends to Queen\u2019s University to become a chemical engineer. Upon graduation, he began work at an engineering company, but his supervisors soon recognized his ability. Soon, Jim was writing the company\u2019s press releases and composing speeches for its president.\n\u201cThe penny dropped about four years into the business,\u201d says Jim, who adds that he enjoyed the writing more than the work he was originally hired to perform. \u201cI saw an ad for an assistant editor position in a chemical magazine and decided to apply.\u201d\nJim flourished at Southam Business Publications, eventually becoming the editor of Canadian Petroleum magazine. After about five years, he and an engineer friend with similar skills decided to launch a chemicals newsletter. \u201cI quit Southam and got my wife\u2019s permission to begin my career as a journalist,\u201d Jim jokes.\nTwelve years later, Corpus Information Services Ltd. had 80 employees, published 11 different newsletters, and held annual conferences. Jim and his partner sold the business to Southam, his old employer, and he became president of the subsidiary. But the entrepreneurial urge struck him again\u2014just as Steve Jobs\u2019 Apple Lisa hit the market. Around the same time, Pagemaker was released. \u201cThat revolutionized everything!\u201d says Jim. \u201cNow anybody could layout a newsletter.\u201d\nThese two innovations got Jim back into the business. Before long, he and his new company were creating newsletters for an airline and other clients.\n\u201cDon Stephenson in the Development Office at University of Guelph asked me to do a newsletter on planned giving,\u201d Jim explains. At the time, he wasn\u2019t sure what \u201cplanned giving\u201d meant, but agreed to launch Canada\u2019s first newsletter on the topic in 1984.\nIn no time flat, Queen\u2019s University asked for a similar publication. University of Toronto and University of Alberta followed, and then hospitals started asking. \u201cBefore we knew it, we were doing a bunch of newsletters for non-profit clients,\u201d says Jim, who eventually sold the business to the newsletter printer.\nIn 1991, he launched a popular newsletter called Canadian FundRaiser that served the non-profit sector. A few years later, with a friend, Jim launched CharityVillage, a website that continues to this day. \u201cI\u2019ve been reporting on gift planning and fundraising ever since,\u201d Jim adds.\nReporting and participating, that is. Jim joined others in the foundation of the Canadian Association of Gift Planners in 1996. He also launched Civil Sector Press, which specializes in fundraising literature. Three years ago, he and an associate launched a consulting service for non-profits to help them cultivate relationships with supporters that are likely to make a bequest.\nIt\u2019s safe to say that Jim Hilborn has his work cut out for him. So, what makes Jim excited about the non-profit world?\n\u201cSix months into publishing Canadian FundRaiser, I started thinking about the people who work in the sector. They\u2019re all on a mission. They\u2019re all involved in something that they believe is good for society. One day at lunch, the penny dropped again. \u2018I\u2019m going to work in this sector for the rest of my career,\u2019 I said to myself.\u201d\nFrom that moment, Jim hasn\u2019t looked back. \u201cFundraising is a wonderful sector. It\u2019s difficult to make a living selling stuff to the charitable sector\u2014there is a huge cultural chasm between the business mind and the charity mind\u2014but we\u2019ve found ways to help and it\u2019s been an incredibly rich experience.\u201d\nThe writer in Jim wants to build upon that experience. Last year, Jim began flexing his creative writing muscles with an informal series of emails to 60 or so people\u2014a list he calls \u201cFamily Plus.\u201d Writing his thoughts and getting responses from friends all over the world has kept him connected, he says. It also gives him a chance to be a writer, fulfilling the destiny his teachers predicted back in Ottawa.\nDoes he plan to move on from fundraising for yet another career? Not a chance. \u201cI\u2019m still here, and I won\u2019t be leaving,\u201d says Jim. \u201cThey\u2019ll have to carry me out.\u201d",

I came from the Maryland and West Virginia area but parts of that time are something I want to forget. We go for walks every day and I have earned the right to go off leash at times. I used to run and do dog things but time has started to slow me down. My Mom took me to her friend Rand (Dr. Rand Winton)\u2026 someone who likes to poke and do things to me\u2026 and they did some more poking and picture taking and all kinds of stuff\u2026 I tried to be good but one can only take so much. But the pictures interested Mom. There were BBs in several places\u2026 probably from that time I would rather forget. And a couple were near my spine\u2026 maybe that is why it started to hurt when I walked. Well, our buddy Rand told my Mom about another lady named Tammy who just might help. One day, Mom and I got in the van and drove to a place I had never been. I wasn\u2019t too sure about all of this and being part Swissy was a little suspicious. They made me walk around as they all looked at me and then took me into a room. Luckily Mom got to go with me \u2018cause they started to touch me\u2026 I wasn\u2019t sure this was a good thing but it started to feel OK. Then it was back into the van and home again. The next time I kinda knew what was going to happen and it felt even better. And as the times spent with Tammy continued, I realized that I could run again and feel good. Now I look forward to the times I spend with \u201cMY\u201d Tammy\u2026 they are my special times and I feel sooooo much better. Unfortunately, Mom took my sister Mango with us a couple of times\u2026 I had to share \u201cMY\u201d Tammy with Mango\u2026 not sure I liked that but I got my time with Tammy\u2019s special hands so it was OK. Hey, I am willing to share \u201cMY\u201d Tammy with you\u2026 you will feel soooooo much better\u2026. just as long as I get my time, too.\nSigned Bailey Nash\n13-year old Standard Poodle\nJack, our 12-year old Standard Poodle had been losing mobility over the last several years. He was slow to get up from a sitting or lying position. It took several minutes for him to ascend a flight of stairs. He would have to pause between each step. Many of our friends and family told us that this was expected since Jack was getting much older. X-rays of his back showed that he had arthritis in his spine.\nWe started taking Jack to Tammy Wolfe for physical therapy in the spring of 2008. Tammy saw Jack twice a week. Tammy\u2019s therapy has strengthened his rear legs and relaxed the muscles in his back.\nAfter several weeks, the improvement in Jack\u2019s mobility was so great that people kept asking us \u2018What happened to Jack?\u201d. For the first time in years, Jack was playing and running like a young pup. He was clearly not the \u201csame old\u201d Jack. Now, he goes up and down the stairs with ease. Another significant change is that now he plays with the other neighborhood dogs. He no longer lies on the porch and watches them play.\nThe stiffness and pain that Jack used to experience is gone. It is wonderful to see the great improvement as a result of the physical therapy. In addition to Tammy\u2019s hands-on therapy with the dog, she instructed us on how to perform the massages on Jack at home. The massage therapy is so relaxing for Jack that he goes into a deep sleep each time it\u2019s performed.\nJack continues to go to therapy twice a week to maintain his strength and flexibility. Once a week he is in the underwater treadmill and, at the other visit, Jack and his sister Ginger enjoy a swim in the indoor pool. Tammy\u2019s therapy has breathed new life into Jack. Before the therapy Jack moved and acted like an old dog. Today, he moves and plays like a young dog. It is obvious that Jack feels better and, of course, is much happier.\nCheck out Jack\u2019s before and after videos!\nWayne & Pamela Anderson",

I would say it has been at least a decade, since 25th Hour, that I have been generally thrilled with one of Spike's joints - and even longer if you try to reach back to his early days of great prospect. The man that once gave us such revolutionary work as Do the Right Thing and Jungle Fever, now gives us the pandering Miracle at St. Anna, and the dreadfully boring, and the dreadfully clich\u00e9, She Hate Me. Granted, the man's docs are still interesting, and I am looking forward - with quite a bit of anticipation, mind you - to his remake of Park Chan-wook's Oldboy, but I must say that the guy just doesn't seem to have it anymore. The spark, so to speak, has gone out of his fireworks. This becomes achingly evident during the first two acts of his latest film, Red Hook Summer.\nThe story of a teenage boy from Hotlanta, Atlanta, who is sent by his single mother, to spend the summer with his estranged preacher grandfather in the Red Hook area of Brooklyn, is a film that tries to take on the ideas of spirituality and the absurdities of religion. As we see this iPad-toting, vegan, effeminate thirteen year old, making his way through this newly dangerous world of Brooklyn (are we to believe he had no previous problems in the crime-riddled Atlanta?), befriending a neighbour girl, who at first berates him for \"talking white\" (is his explanation of having gone to a private school, meant as an apology for having dared to not fall into the linguistic wasteland that is inner city youth culture?), and getting threatened by the most generic of drug dealing neighbourhood hooligans (see, even Spike Lee, a man who blindly berates other filmmakers for supposedly mocking his culture, can jump on the stereotype bandwagon), we are left quite unmoved. Having to sit through the quite ridiculous dialogue written by Lee and co-writer/producer James McBride, we become painfully aware that Lee's black youth culture sounds just as silly as Diablo Cody's white counterparts. But, these kids, with such affectatious monikers as Flick Royal and Chazz Morningstar (we are not suppose to take this seriously so much as fantastically), are first timers, so we should at least give them a break.\nThe performance of The Wire star Clarke Peters, as Flick's obsessively preachy grandpa, Da Good Bishop Enoch Rouse, manages to hold the film together quite well - even when everyone around him seems either a joke or a stereotype, or both. But as this film moves on, this insular world we see them living in (replete with multiple walk-ons by Lee himself, reprising his role of Do the Right Thing's Mookie - still delivering pizzas nearly twenty-five years later), begins to grow on you. When we finally get to the obvious and inevitable third act, even though it is seen coming the proverbial mile away, it comes as almost a redemption of the rest of the film. Much like the souls that Da Good Bishop wants to save, Lee saves his own cinematic soul by having it be reborn in the final act - an final act that is an emotionally brazen half hour or so, and makes us remember why we fell in love with Lee's early films in the first place. Granted, the film already looked quite spectacular (Lee has always been one to use the entire colour palette to its fullest advantage - sort of like a Brooklyn-based Nick Ray or Stanley Kubrick, or even Godard), and even though its script is less than desirable, this final act brings it all home again. I suppose, I must admit to having enjoyed the damn thing after all. So there.",

        "raw_content": "Quit Co. launches Quit Nutrition, a multivitamin, the first ever to supplement the specific nutritional deficiencies common in smokers.\nGREENWICH, CT., Tuesday, May 3, 2016 \u2013 Cigarette smoking actually causes specific nutritional deficiencies that lead to the many well known health problems. Until now, there has never been a product to specifically boost smokers nutritional needs. Quit Co. recently launched Quit Nutrition, a multivitamin, to help smokers maintain health and repair damage caused by tobacco use.\nQuit Nutrition is a high quality multivitamin, with minerals, herbs, and amino acids, in a once a day tablet. Quit Nutrition supports smokers with high levels of antioxidants, for protection from free radicals in cigarette smoke, additional B vitamins for energy, herbs that help improve stamina and support the immune system, the Coenzyme Q10 for heart health, and the amino acid n-acetylcysteine to help support the lungs.\nThe harmful chemicals in tobacco smoke cause damage to tissues and cells, which require vitamins and minerals for repair. Smoking causes so much damage, often there is often not enough left for normal health maintenance. Each cigarette depletes the body of 25 mg of vitamin C, weakening the immune system. Vitamin E is an antioxidant and essential for cellular repair, especially to the mouth, throat, and lungs. Research shows low levels of vitamin E are correlated with higher rates of cancer.\nDespite marketing messages, smoking actually causes stress. Oxidative stress occurs when there are too many free radicals and not enough antioxidants. Nicotine causes spikes in blood pressure, and the carbon monoxide in cigarette smoke actually steals oxygen from the bloodstream. All this causes the release of stress hormones, such as cortisol, requiring B-vitamins for energy production to counteract it. Also, stressful situations are one of the most common triggers to smoke again after quitting.\nA diet of raw fruits and vegetables is a good way to get many of the nutrients required for proper health. Raw foods have enzymes can actually change the perceived pleasure from smoking. However, this diet is often not enough, especially for smokers, and supplements are necessary to get enough of the nutrients required to support health and repair the damage after quitting smoking.\nQuit Nutrition Multivitamin is the 3rd product from Quit Co. that is intended to help smokers with natural, and behavioral support. Quit Nutrition is available nationwide on many online retailers such as Amazon.com, and will be distributed by Select Nutrition Distributors.",

But if he\u2019s found guilty of the charges that were levied against him, he may find himself behind bars.\nAkil is not only being charged for domestic violence but also a breach of contract. On November 20th a lawsuit was filed by Amber Dixon Brenner in California. The lawsuit alleges that she carried on a long-term relationship with Akil that sexually and physically abusive.\nIn the breach of contract aspect of the lawsuit, Brenner\u2019s complaint claims that Akil used portions of a script she wrote in 2015, entitled Luv & Perversity in the East Village. Although the series never made it on television, she alleges that some of her work appeared in the hit OWN series Love Is_, which Akil created. Love Is_ tells a semi-autobiographical story of how the Akil\u2019s met and fell in love.\nSalim and Mara Brock are major players in the television and film industry. Salim first cut his teeth as a staff writer and then as executive producer of Showtime\u2019s award-winning Soulfood.

        "title": "The Time Machine: Chris Isaak Performed in Hawaii",
        "raw_content": "Chris Isaak Performed in Hawaii\nOver the weekend; actor, rocker and crooner Chris Isaak rocked on the islands of Maui (Friday evening) and Oahu (Saturday night). This was the second time around for The Time Machine Crew to kick back and be entertained by one of the most charismatic rock performers today. Chris was a guest on The Time Machine in the past (including a wonderful Christmas radio special before the turn of the century) and he had us in stitches on the air just as he did this past weekend from stage.\nThe audience was in high heaven from the get-go and what island crowd doesn't appreciate an artist like Chris performing \"Sweet Leilani\".\nBefore playing music, he worked a variety of jobs.\n\u201cI have done farm work, throwing hay, loading sacks at the port, a bunch of roofing work, drove delivery, even worked in a funeral home \u2013got out of there fast,\u201d he said. \u201cMy mom would get calls from farmers that used to hire me years after I was making records. They would call and offer me work, throwing hay. I always thought that meant they thought I was a good worker, but my brother said, they probably just heard me sing and figured I needed a job.\u201d\nGiving us the perspective from Oahu, Kathy with a \"K\", shares her wonderment:\nOn Saturday night, I had the fine pleasure of making good on a concert I absently, regrettably blew off back in 1999: Chris Issak. Ah, I was in nirvana last night, he and his five piece band were great. You know, he's got a fine voice though I am reminded just how pure it is when it's just him and his acoustic guitar, quietly stepping up the scales and back down again. Oh, and that blue suit. And the mirrored suit for the hana hou.\nOne of the songs he did was one he \"borrowed\" while visiting Molokai and when he said \"Blue Darling\", my heart pulsed as that is my fave Kapena song. Isaak and his band also did covers of Cheap Trick (I Want You to Want Me) and Roy Orbison. The hits \"Wicked Game\" and \"Somebody's Crying\" were featured about thirty to forty minutes into his one hour and forty-five minute set (at least that was what I clocked by the time I got to my car, after the house lights came on) with \"Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing\" close to the end. It was an even mix of everyone's favorite, whether you are just a radio listener or you've got the i-pod busting at the seams, it was throughly enjoyable.\nIsaak is Mr. Personality, which makes him translate so well with fans and on his cable show. Sexy, smart, witty...frickin' guy has men wanting to trade shop talk about music and what'not and the ladies are all Ah-Gah over his swagger and rumoured endowment of the arts (wink, wink...I don't know, a co-worker mentioned this to me and I believe I blushed...).\nI caught him on Friday night here on Maui and it was my second time to see him in concert. Unlike you, I didn't pass up that show back in '99. *LOL\nAs mentioned earlier Chris is an incredibly charismatic performer. I took a friend with me as my date couldn't make it at the last moment (that's another story but she saw him back in '99 with me - :) - so we're covered). He was ready to be bored out of his mind but as soon as Chris jumped off the stage after the first song...he was hooked. He only knew the song \"Wicked Game\" and no matter how many flicks I told him that I knew he saw that Chris acted in, he couldn't even place his face. He's been telling everyone the past two days that he is a \"new Chris Isaak fan\". It was so funny watching my friend look around at the entire venue packed with a sold out crowd and stating, \"This guy must be famous. Look at all of these people.\" Yeah...he doesn't get out much...\nI should also add that I don't get out much either. :)\nKathy w/a K\n...when I had the rare chance to peep Miles Davis at the Waikiki Shell, what was it...1990? 1989? My friends and I were lying on our backs staring at the night sky on the lawn and I kept sitting up, looking across the crowd. I didn't realize how fortunate I was to be listening to him, looking at his back as that's the way Miles played to his audience. It was one of those shows where it was like Woodstock, you know, people said they were there but were they? Really? I gained further appreciation of his music and sometimes that's where an artist is really best heard: live and in person.\nI believe this is why I love going to concerts and local gigs, when I can. The energy of the audience as well as the performer(s)...when they still love what they do and you can tell they know they are lucky to have fans that support them. What a great life, tough on the road yet it's hell-a better than being chained to a desk in an office with fake air and no windows.",

        "raw_content": "My Facebook connections seem to compound by the day, but I couldn\u2019t feel less connected in general. It\u2019s a little disjointing, this proliferating collection of re-connections with people who have known me at different enough times, in different enough ways, that I\u2019m starting to feel like a whole collection of people.\nYesterday, a picture of me appeared from when I was 18 or 19 at a party. The friend who posted the picture was someone I was close to in college \u2013 one of my first truly smart, fun and magical girlfriends, who also guided me into some of the best American literature classes I took in college. I lost touch with her until Facebook, where I found her still looking beautiful and young and with a brand new baby.\nThere are four of us in the picture. Three of us (including me and my friend) are looking at a Polaroid and laughing. I couldn\u2019t remember the third too well. I Googled her name to see if I could find a better picture. She was easy to find. When I saw her face again, I remembered this long, thin Southern girl full of energy, big laughter and a skill for all kinds of clowning \u2013 although that\u2019s about all I remember. It seems she\u2019s lived a pretty remarkable life, holding down an organic farm, making art and working extensively in the rebuilding of New Orleans after Katrina and the Gulf Coast after Ike.\nLate last year, she was in a horrible car accident. Her family has constructed a web site full of tributes to her life, and a gut-wrenching Caring Bridge diary about her current condition.\nThe fourth woman has her back turned to the camera, but I would know who she was from her roll of long blond hair, even if she wasn\u2019t identified.\nShe was a New Yorker, like so many people I went to college with, a few years older than me and apparently a minor child star, although I don\u2019t think I knew that last fact until years later. She was heady and clever and seemed sort of intellectually untouchable to me. Although we were more friends of each others\u2019 friends than friends to each other, she suggested that I read Charlotte Perkins Gilman\u2019s The Yellow Wallpaper and Jean Genet\u2019s Our Lady of the Flowers, and I did. She\u2019s not someone that I imagined ever gave me another thought once we left our mountain valley campus.\n\u201cYou and I don\u2019t know each other all that well, and I\u2019m not asking you to tell me anything,\u201d she once said to me, after we\u2019d run in the same social circles well over a year. \u201cI have enough of my own shit going on that I don\u2019t need to hear anyone else\u2019s. But I can see that you\u2019ve seen or been through something life-altering, something that seems to have rocked you pretty hard. I don\u2019t know what it is, but it\u2019s all over you. You look scared.\u201d\nShe was right. I told her so. And because what I had seen was a friend, in shock, shaking, with neck and wrists cut open by his own hand who was still, gratefully, alive, I couldn\u2019t talk about it and I didn\u2019t. Yes, I told her, something awful has happened, and no, I can\u2019t say what.\n\u201cIsn\u2019t it great to know that you\u2019re porous, like a sponge?\u201d She laughed, a sharpened sympathy about her. She hugged me \u2013 being reassuring while maintaining a distance \u2013 before going on her way.\nA couple or a few years ago, I read in my alumni magazine that she died, at age 36, of a brain aneurysm. She was gone, just like that. Her mother, who had submitted the information, said that she had been happily married when it happened. She also said that, as an organ donor, her daughter\u2019s final act saved the lives of several other people.\nmemorypersonal\nPrevious PostI\u2019m stuckNext PostThe possibilities of a painting\nas we get older, i think those kinds of intensely intimate connections are more rare. i wonder if part of the facebook phenomenon is because people want to relive that intensity of our adolescence.\nI think it may be \u2013 and I wonder the same thing about blogging, only in the sense of forging new, intense connections.\nJeannette E. Spaghetti says:\nThe world is so big, so full of amazing people. I\u2019m glad to get to know just a handfull of them, even if only for a moment.",

        "raw_content": "Home > The Education > International A/AS Leavels\nCIE - Cambridge International A/AS Levels\nEvery year, thousands of students with Cambridge International A Level win places at good universities worldwide. As one of the most recognised qualifications around the world, it is accepted as proof of academic ability for entry to universities worldwide. Cambridge International A Levels typically take two years to complete and offer a flexible course of study that gives students the freedom to select subjects that are right for them. - they either follow a broad course of study, or specialise in a particular area.\nCambridge International A and AS Levels use a wide range of assessment processes and techniques to supplement formal written examinations - orals, practicals, projects and coursework of differing types are all used in various subjects where they are the most effective and appropriate means of measuring attainment.\nEach subject that a Cambridge international student takes at AS/A Level receives a separately certificated grade. Cambridge International AS Level provides valuable feedback on performance, identifying strengths and weaknesses prior to any final assessment. Taking the Cambridge International AS Level examination part-way through the international A Level course provides feedback that learners can use to set learning goals for the second half of the course. It can also provide learners with the motivation and momentum to complete their programme of study\nThe choices of subjects offered are: English, Hindi/French, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Economics, Accounting, Business Studies, Computing, and Applied Information and Communication Technology.\nFor further information please visit:http://www.cie.org.uk/qualifications/academic/uppersec/alevel",

        "raw_content": "Billions of people could get online for the first time thanks to helium balloons that Google will soon send over many places cell tower don\u2019t reach.\nGoogle says these balloons can deliver widespread economic and social benefits by bringing Internet access to the 60 percent of the world\u2019s people who don\u2019t have it. Many of those 4.3 billion people live in rural places where telecommunications companies haven\u2019t found it worthwhile to build cell towers or other infrastructure.\nThe helium balloons are inflated to the size they reach in the stratosphere. The \u201cballonets\u201d inside are filled with air or emptied to make the balloon fall or rise.\nIn tests with major cellular carriers, the balloons have provided high-speed connections to people in isolated parts of Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand. Google expects cellular providers to rent access to the balloons to expand their networks. Then the number of people in the world who still lack Internet access should start to shrink, fast.\nBalloon revolution\nThe 15-kilogram box carried by a Loon balloon has computers that act on commands from flight engineers, as well as equipment to transmit Internet connectivity to the ground below.\nProject Loon aims to change the economics of Internet access.\nGoogle has also made major improvements to its stratospheric craft. One of the most significant was developing a way to accurately pilot balloons across thousands of miles without any form of propulsion. The stratosphere, is safely above clouds, storms, and commercial flights. But it has strong winds, sometimes exceeding 300 kilometers per hour. Providing reliable wireless service means being able to guarantee that there will always be a balloon within 40 kilometers.\nWinds blow in different directions and at different speeds in different layers of the stratosphere. Loon balloons exploit that by changing altitude. As a smaller balloon inside the main one inflates or deflates, they can rise or fall to seek out the winds that will send them where Google wants them to go. It\u2019s all directed by software in a Google data center. A fleet of balloons can be co\u00f6rdinated that way to ensure there is always one over any particular area.\nA balloon that was intentionally burst in a test is checked for flaws.\nThe first version of this system sent new commands to Loon balloons once a day. It could find a way for a balloon launched over New Zealand, for example, to dawdle over land until prevailing winds pushed it east and over the Pacific Ocean. Then it would have the balloon ride the fastest winds possible for the 9,000-kilometer trip east to Chile. But that system could only get balloons within hundreds of kilometers of their intended target. For tests of Internet service in New Zealand and elsewhere, the company had to cheat, launching Loon balloons nearby to make sure they would be overhead. In late 2014, Google upgraded its balloon navigation system to give balloons fresh orders as frequently as every 15 minutes. They can now be steered with impressive accuracy over intercontinental distances. In early 2015, a balloon traveled 10,000 kilometers and got within 500 meters of its desired cell tower.\nGoogle has made many improvements to the design of the Loon balloons\u2019 payloads and electronics. But it still has problems left to solve. For example, Google needs to perfect a way of making radio or laser connections between balloons, so that they can pass data along in an aerial chain to connect areas far from any ground station.\nThose working on Project Loon are confident the public good will be served. They seem as motivated by a desire to make people\u2019s lives better as by Loon\u2019s outlandish technology.",

        "raw_content": "Three Unlikely Yet Winning Covers Albums\nThis is far from the most original observation I\u2019ve ever made, but recording a cover is like trying on someone else\u2019s clothes.\nSometimes the fit is awkward and uncomfortable, and you can hardly move without tearing or tripping over something. But sometimes, it\u2019s so perfect that you learn to strut inside those borrowed duds, to the point where even close friends don\u2019t recognize you. You don\u2019t look like you, or like the person who owns the clothes \u2013 you\u2019re some strange, unrecognizable hybrid of the two.\nThat is, if you do it right. Covers can be fascinating, or they can be a complete waste of time. If you\u2019re going through the motions, playing a slavishly faithful rendition without bringing anything of yourself to it, then you\u2019re just filling the air. As a wise woman once said, ain\u2019t nobody got time for that. If I\u2019m going to buy a covers album, it\u2019s because I want to hear something I can\u2019t imagine. If it sounds just like I thought it would, I\u2019m bound to be a bit disappointed.\nLet\u2019s take my favorite covers project of the last few years, Peter Gabriel\u2019s Scratch My Back. I could never have guessed just how Gabriel covering Arcade Fire\u2019s \u201cMy Body is a Cage\u201d with a full orchestra would have sounded. It seems unfathomable, and yet, there it is, and it\u2019s probably my favorite thing on this record. This year, Gabriel finally released the companion volume, And I\u2019ll Scratch Yours, with the artists he covered each doing one of Gabriel\u2019s tunes. It\u2019s a similar delight \u2013 you think you know what Bon Iver would do with \u201cCome Talk to Me,\u201d for instance, or how the Magnetic Fields would recast \u201cNot One of Us,\u201d but hearing these renditions is revelatory.\nEvery year there\u2019s a crop of covers records \u2013 some worth it, some not. But 2013 seemed to have more than the usual share. I have three very different ones to discuss this week, starting with the third volume of Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs\u2019 Under the Covers series. Sweet is a power pop genius with a knack for self-harmonizing, while Hoffs made her name as one of the Bangles, and has a number of glistening pop records to her name. Every few years, the pair takes on a different decade\u2019s hits and deep cuts. They celebrated the \u201860s in 2006, and the \u201870s in 2009, which means it\u2019s time for the \u201880s.\nBut here\u2019s the thing about Sweet and Hoffs (or Sid n Susie, as they call themselves in this context): they haven\u2019t changed their sound since that first outing. So this is a group of \u201880s songs played by a band straight out of the \u201860s, with that Sweet-style analog production. That\u2019s an interesting wrinkle, and it adds spice to this collection.\nEven if you haven\u2019t heard them together, you can almost imagine the way Sweet and Hoffs would harmonize, the lovely sounds their intertwining voices would make. And you\u2019d be right \u2013 they sing together beautifully. But by the third volume of these covers, we\u2019re used to that, so it\u2019s the arrangements that make this record. Granted, they do choose songs that fit their template, but this is still one of the most organic \u201880s tributes I\u2019ve heard.\nVolume 3 kicks off with a dynamite version of R.E.M.\u2019s \u201cSitting Still,\u201d a clear indication that Sweet and Hoffs are not going to stick to the tried and true. It\u2019s remarkably faithful, Sweet playing those ringing Byrds-ian guitar figures perfectly. Their note-perfect version of Dave Edmunds\u2019 \u201cGirls Talk\u201d (written by the great Elvis Costello) rocks, as does their resurrection of \u201cBig Brown Eyes\u201d by the dBs. Who wouldn\u2019t want to hear Hoffs sing \u201cKid\u201d by the Pretenders, or hear Sweet crash his way through the delightful English Beat tune \u201cSave It for Later\u201d? In both cases, the pair pays homage to the original while bringing a new dimension to it.\nThroughout this volume, Sweet and Hoffs pogo back and forth between well-known songs and forgotten classics. I\u2019m not sure I ever needed to hear Tom Petty\u2019s \u201cFree Fallin\u2019\u201d again, even in a setting like this, but I very much appreciated Hoffs\u2019 tribute to the Go-Go\u2019s, revving up \u201cOur Lips are Sealed.\u201d And while there are certainly other Smiths songs they could have chosen, \u201cHow Soon is Now\u201d remains wonderful. On the flip side, there\u2019s Kristy MacColl\u2019s delightful \u201cThey Don\u2019t Know,\u201d which Hoffs knocks out of the park, and the Bongos\u2019 \u201cThe Bulrushes,\u201d a song I\u2019d never heard. They dig deep into the XTC catalog to find \u201cTowers of London,\u201d and close things out with Lindsey Buckingham\u2019s great \u201cTrouble,\u201d here stripped of some of its eccentricity, but none of its elegance.\nIs Under the Covers Vol. 3 successful, despite hewing pretty closely to the originals in most cases? I think so. It\u2019s great fun to hear these two golden-throated singers weave their way around this material, smoothing out the more angular ones (like \u201cTowers of London\u201d). The song selection gives an interesting insight into both Sweet and Hoffs, and all told, it\u2019s 50 minutes of pure pop delight. I can\u2019t hardly wait until they get to the \u201890s \u2013 aside from Sweet\u2019s own work, there wasn\u2019t much melodic pop to be found, so I\u2019m interested to hear what they choose. This series is a winner, as far as I\u2019m concerned.\nWhile Sweet and Hoffs do stick pretty closely to their source material, they\u2019re definitely not trying to clone the original singers. That\u2019s a trick that our other, much less likely pair pulls off on their out-of-nowhere covers record. I\u2019ve been saying this out loud to people to see if they believe me \u2013 Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day and Norah Jones have teamed up to faithfully cover an entire Everly Brothers album from 1958. Yes, this is a real thing you can really go buy right now.\nThey\u2019ve titled it Foreverly, but really, it\u2019s the Everlys\u2019 Songs Our Daddy Taught Us, itself an album of traditional songs and covers. Jones and Armstrong have altered the order a bit, but changed little else \u2013 the sound is vintage, despite being fuller, with drums and harmonicas, and the harmonies remain as they always have. Jones takes Phil\u2019s tenor parts, while Armstrong handles Don\u2019s baritone lines. And it works \u2013 I was very surprised at how well their voices dance together. They don\u2019t mess with the vocal arrangements at all \u2013 Jones doesn\u2019t have to slip into falsetto on \u201cLong Time Gone,\u201d for instance, but the pair mimics the Everlys remarkably well.\nThe original album was rootsy and acoustic, but Foreverly adds some richer studio touches. \u201cLightning Express,\u201d for instance, now sounds like a Jon Brion special, with shuffling drums and chimes, while \u201cRockin\u2019 Alone (In an Old Rockin\u2019 Chair)\u201d is now a piano ballad. These arrangements, while certainly filling things out, remain respectful of the originals. Foreverly is sweet, and while Jones could do this stuff in her sleep, Armstrong is the unknown quality here, and he acquits himself well.\nStill, Foreverly is a bit of a novelty, and as interesting as it is, I probably won\u2019t pull it out too often. It\u2019s a neat document of an unlikely pairing, and if it gets more people to listen to the Everly Brothers, great. But the original album isn\u2019t a favorite, and this reinvention is nice and reverential, and that\u2019s about it. It answers its central question \u2013 yes, Billie Joe Armstrong can sing this stuff, and can harmonize with Norah Jones well \u2013 within the first 30 seconds, and after that, it\u2019s much less fascinating.\nLuckily, our third covers album doesn\u2019t fall into the same trap. It\u2019s remarkable from start to finish, the finest of the trio on tap this week. It\u2019s called Fellow Travelers, and it\u2019s by Shearwater, the ambitious Texas band led by the amazing Jonathan Mieburg. The thrill of Fellow Travelers is that it sounds like a new Shearwater album \u2013 the band clearly put as much care into the song selection and arrangement of this thing as they do with each new studio effort. Plus, the song choices are generally obscure enough that they may as well be new Shearwater songs.\nCase in point \u2013 the record opens with Jesca Hoop\u2019s brief \u201cOur Only Sun,\u201d performed on piano and Mieburg\u2019s soaring voice, before crashing into Xiu Xiu\u2019s abrasive, propulsive \u201cI Luv the Valley Oh!!\u201d Shearwater smooths this song out \u2013 well, it couldn\u2019t possibly be less smoothed-out than the original \u2013 and they drive it home with a pounding beat and huge guitars. Elsewhere they cover tunes by Wye Oak, Clinic and David Thomas Broughton, bringing something new to each one. It\u2019s probably for the best, though, that these songs are all pretty obscure, since Shearwater is not a band that can disappear into a cover. Mieburg is too distinctive a singer for that.\nFellow Travelers is definitely not a catalog of the band\u2019s influences. It\u2019s more of a snapshot of songs by contemporaries. Mieburg sings the hell out of Broughton\u2019s \u201cAmbiguity,\u201d transforming this haphazard folk ditty into a tiny epic, slowed down and graceful. The band also recasts Wye Oak\u2019s \u201cMary is Mary\u201d as a folksier number, half as long as the original, with a delicate electric piano, and they close things out with a gentle reading of the Baptist Generals\u2019 \u201cFucked Up Life\u201d that puts a sweeter bow on things than you\u2019d expect.\nShearwater does drop some fascinating surprises. They cover Coldplay\u2019s \u201cHurts Like Heaven,\u201d stripping it of all the Mylo Xyloto excess and playing it straight, on pianos and ambient guitars. They take on St. Vincent\u2019s \u201cCheerleader\u201d with aplomb, playing it sloppy and joyous, and Mieburg doesn\u2019t alter the lyrics one jot, to his credit. And in the most surprising turn, they deliver a convincing, raucous take on Folk Implosion\u2019s \u201890s dance tune \u201cNatural One.\u201d The Shearwater version sounds a bit like Depeche Mode, but it keeps the original\u2019s sense of menacing groove.\nFellow Travelers is what a covers record ought to be \u2013 it celebrates the original songs while asserting the band\u2019s identity throughout. These tunes are all reinvented, to one degree or another, and they all end up sounding like Shearwater \u2013 so much so that the one original, \u201cA Wake for the Minotaur,\u201d fits right in. If I told you this was an album of new Shearwater songs, even the longtime fans would believe it. Mieburg and company have tried on these clothes, made some alterations, and found that they\u2019re remarkably comfortable. They\u2019ve made something special here, something that perfects and transcends the idea of covers albums. It\u2019s still ineligible for my top 10 list, but it\u2019s wonderful.\nNext week, I say happy birthday to Doctor Who. Then, I bat cleanup on the year as we head into the home stretch.

        "raw_content": "It was a flying rock, drastic temperature shock, or accident, and it has left your car with the slightest crack across the windshield. You may look at this seemingly miniscule damage and decide that, hey, that's really something that you can live with and skip repairs or replacement. Unfortunately, choosing not to replace or repair a car windshield that has minimal damage is never a good idea. In fact, ignoring the problem could just make things worse in the long run. Take a look at these three big reasons to go ahead and repair or replace a slightly damaged car windshield.\nSmall damages can compromise the strength of your windshield.\nAutomobile engineers have worked for years to develop a windshield that is as safe as possible to ensure that the glass is as resilient. However, when the glass is compromised by a small fracture, it is no longer as safe and resilient. If you were to be involved in an accident with a windshield that has already sustained some form of damage, there is a greater likelihood that the windshield will break or bust on impact.\nSmall damages can spread out unexpectedly.\nImagine you are heading down the interstate at a high rate of speed, the small windshield damage not being an issue, and then suddenly, the crack expands in several directions, obstructing your field of vision. Not only is this a possibility, but it is incredibly dangerous. Once a windshield is damaged, the damage can spread unexpectedly. While the scenario given is unlikely, it could be possible, especially if you hit a bump or a pothole. Most of the time, damages will grow larger over several hours or even several days or weeks.\nSmall damages can lessen the value of your car.\nIt may only be a small problem in your eyes, but if you decide to sell your car to an individual, just a small crack or break in the windshield can make the car look even less desirable. Plus, if you choose to trade your vehicle in on a newer model, the dealership will likely figure the value as less due to the damage. Therefore, it is always a better idea to make sure the windshield is flawless before you decide to sell it or trade it in.\nThe bottom line is, it is a much better idea to go ahead and replace or repair that broken windshield than to just let it ride, Contact a windshield repair and replacement service center for more information. A company like Coats Auto Body and Paint may be a good place to start.",

Here, on the West Coast, clouds are looming\nCheyenne Dog Soldier by James Bama\nand it is thus the perfect afternoon to be writing on my site \ud83d\ude42 Over the past months, I have come across some paintings, by artist James Bama among others. If you follow my Facebook page, you would have seen some of those paintings. I was intrigued by one of those paintings titled Cheyenne Dog Soldier so I began researching the topic of Dog Soldiers. What I found was a story of warriors who came together to help their people. However, the story is not as black and white as that. Whereas some would consider them heroes, some would consider them a military group whose power got the best of them. Which one is it? Well let\u2019s start from the beginning and look at the story of the Cheyenne Dog Soldiers.\nThe Cheyenne and their societies\nThe Cheyenne people, a Plains tribe, were known to hold their own against even the fiercest of opponents. They had the fight in them and stood their ground. As with other Plains tribes, they were organized into societies with their own rules, privileges and duties. Each had their own songs and dances that distinguished them. The Dog Soldiers society was one of six military societies of the Cheyenne Indians. Beginning in the early 1800\u2019s, this society played an important role in Cheyenne resistance (as I said they had the fight in them) to American expansion in Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming, where the Cheyenne had settled in the early 19th Century.\nThe formation of the Dog Soldiers society\nThe Cheyenne Dog Soldiers society was a \u201cmilitary\u201d society put in place to regulate the members of the tribe, to regulate social problems among the tribe such as theft and murder. The oral tradition says that Sweet Medicine, the Cheyenne\u2019s cultural hero, wished to find a solution to those problems. Thus he went into Black Hills country (yes the same Black Hills that the US government wants to currently take over from the Indigenous people of the land) to find answers. He then encountered a group of older men and women who told him that to solve the Cheyenne\u2019s problem, a \u201cgood government\u201d needed to be put into place. And this good government had to be formed of a council of 44 chiefs. Further, military societies had to be formed to provide policing and protection. So eventually, six military societies were formed including the Dog Soldiers. The Dog Soldiers rose among their peers to a position of prominence and power. They aimed to train their members and preserve traditions.\nAnother version of the beginnings of the Dog Soldiers and how they came into their name is the following. A young man without any influence, but chosen by the Great Prophet, tried to rally some of his companions to form a society. As no one would listen to him in the camp circle, he became sad, prayed to the Great Prophet and began singing at sunset. As the people fell asleep in their lodges, the dogs, small and big, howled and whined as the man sang. As he left the camp circle, all the dogs followed him, as he sang four times before reaching his destination at sunrise. He then sat by a tree facing north and all the dogs immediately went in front of him in a semi-circle. As they laid their heads down, a lodge suddenly sprang up around the man. As the dogs entered the lodge, they became humans dressed like the Dog Soldiers. The young man listened and watched as the Dog Men began to sing and dance their own music. The Dog Men blessed the man promising him that his wishes would become reality. The next day as he asked again who wanted to form a society, hundreds joined and he directed them to sing and dance like the Dog Men. Both versions of the formation of the Dog Soldiers are encountered in the oral tradition. I think the main point of both versions is that the society was there to protect using their own traditions, duties and privileges. Let\u2019s then look at what they were\nThe Dog Soldiers traditions\nIt is said that each society, the Dog Soldiers included, had their own symbols, dances, songs and traditions. In regard to their outfits, the Dog Soldiers wore not only a whistle made of bird (typically an eagle) bone but also a belt made of four skunk skins. They carried a bow and arrow and a rattle shaped like a snake to accompany their songs. Further, the four bravest leaders in battle wore a dog rope (sashes made of tanned skin) across their chest. The sash passed over the right shoulder and hung to the ground under the left arm and was decorated with porcupine quills and eagle feathers. Tradition says that to each dog rope was attached a picket-pin (the kind you would use to secure a horse to the ground). While in combat, the pin was put into the ground as a sign of perseverance and standing one\u2019s ground. The soldier was then effectively staked to the ground and could not move. They would do that in battle to allow their brothers\u2019 safe retreat. The Dog Soldiers had to remain there in place until every one reached safety or someone relieved them. Even if it meant death. The Cheyenne tall and proud.\nThose men were there to not only keep peace but also to guide their companions. For example, in the battle of Little Bighorn in 1876, when the Cheyenne joined the Lakota Sioux against General Custer, it is said that the Dog Soldiers advised the rest of the troops to stand down until the white man attacked. They told the troops to stay put patrolling the grounds making sure no one took it upon themselves to go after the white man first. Why? For the welfare of the whole group, for the welfare of the people. So they stood united. And as we know the strategy worked as Custer decided to attack even though he was unprepared and outnumbered, thus fighting his last battle.\nHowever, power can get to one\u2019s head\u2026..\nHowever, probably like in any other military societies, power got the best of some of the Dog Soldiers. Although individual punishment was not approved or sanctioned, some soldiers took it upon themselves to enforce rules furiously. Due some of their actions, and at times, what seemed like abuse of power, some of the Dog Soldiers (who had been led by Porcupine Bear, were ostracized from their village and tribe. They then became governed by their own band chiefs and lived outside of the main camp. The Dog Soldiers camp became independent from the main camp and new recruits understood they would have to move from the main camp. Seen as more extremists than before, the Dog Soldiers began attracting the more militant of the warriors fighting for the land and their boundaries.\nBy the 1860\u2019s, Cheyenne Dog Soldiers and some of the Lakota warriors had joined forces (working together in the Battle of Little Bighorn as previously stated). Together, they became more persistent and defiant. Some warriors also decided to go against the majority of the Cheyennes by opposing the civil chiefs who wished for peace. The Dog Soldiers had prestige and strength and often chose war over peace. The rest of the tribe often following suit. This led to many conflicts among their own people, with the Cheyenne people who wished for peace. Tribes were divided and the Dog Soldiers somewhat lost sight of their original mission: to think of the welfare of the whole group.\nThe legacy of the Dog Soldiers\nNonetheless, the Dog Soldiers remain figures that one looks up to in the oral tradition. They remain a form of heroes, even though they became separate from the Cheyenne. They remain respected and revered.\nIndeed, though the Dog Soldiers never approached the political and military power they once had, they remained revered by other Cheyenne. Respect is given to the society still today. Young Cheyenne are still recruited into this soldier clan. During the twentieth century, Dog Soldiers also served with the United States military in World War I and II and in the conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, and the Persian Gulf region. The image of the brave Dog Soldier carries on.\nWhite Horse, Southern Cheyenne Dog Soldier leader-1895\nSo in the end, the Dog Soldiers had the right intentions: to keep the peace and to attend to the welfare of the whole group. They were brave men who stood their ground, and were not afraid to fight for what they had (or to keep what they had). However, power can be attractive (it is said to be an acquired need) and the story of the Cheyenne Dog Soldiers is an example. Nonetheless, a group that still commands respect for their bravery. I leave you with a short video showing the beauty of the Cheyenne people. Enjoy!\nHad you heard of the Dog Soldiers? What are your thoughts on them?

I hope everyone is enjoying summer (or winter wherever you are). I recently came across some of the pictures included in this post and was horrified. To be honest, I found it very difficult to look at them. The pain in the faces of the individuals was just too great. But I started doing some research about the pictures and the context in which they were taken. What I found was even more disturbing: the existence of human zoos. Yes you read that right, humans being placed in enclosures, \u201cnatural habitats\u201d, and being exposed like animals (not that I agree more with animals being enclosed and being displayed). So let us explore the concept of human zoos using the example of the Selk\u2019Nam natives.\nSelk\u2019Nam natives en route to Europe 1899\nWho were the Selk\u2019Nam natives?\nI wrote \u201cwere\u201d as the Selk\u2019Nam natives are now extinct. The Selk\u2019Nam natives were a tribe from Chile, part of 3 or 4 tribes that were taken to Europe to be exhibited. They lived in the Pantagonian region of Chile and Argentina, including the Tierra del Fugo islands (\u201cland of fire\u201d). They were actually one of the last Indigenous tribes of South America reached by the Westerners (when the government decided to explore and make use of Tierra del Fugo).\nThe Selk\u2019Nams spoke a language called Chon and they were hunters and gatherers who were typically tall. They could adapt to any harsh conditions it seems. The Selk\u2019Nam people were people with strong traditions. As in many native cultures, they lived as one with the land. \u201cMine\u201d did not exist, it was ours. They lived at peace with Mother Earth and had their own ways of life. For example, their initiation ceremony, also called Hain, signified the passage of teenage males into adulthood (some resemblances to the Sunrise Ceremony for girls in the Apache culture). The teenagers had to go through several mental and physical tasks over months at an end, a process that was kept secret. They would paint their body, wear leather masks, emulating the spirits called into the ceremony.\nNative women of the Tierra del Fugo\nUp until the late 19th century, the Selk\u2019Nams had been left alone. But then the Spanish killed most of their games and took over the Tierra del Fugo to build large estates. The Selk\u2019Nams were not familiar with the Spanish way of life, they did not understand the concept of sheep herd. Therefore, they began hunting the sheep, a gesture the ranchers did not appreciate. That led to Selk\u2019Nams being hunted by the Spanish, who would receive their bounty when they would return with their victim\u2019s ears.\nUltimately, the Selk\u2019Nams became extinct over time. From a population of 3000 in 1896 to a population of 25 in 1945. Yes you read that right, 25! The last full blooded Selk\u2019Nam, Anjela Loij, died in 1974. So there you have it, a whole nation who disappeared over time, killed, hunted and treated like objects to be gawked at. Let\u2019s then look at how that happened.\nTierra del Fugo\nThe beginning of the human zoos\nHow can someone think it would ever be okay to exhibit human beings in a cage to be gawked at all day? That\u2019s a hard question. But one needs to think about it this way. A more technologically advanced population (who lacks sensitivity it seems) finds a more primitive civilization who lives in ways they have never seen. Well, they must show that civilization to the world, to study them, to look at them, and to prove their superiority over them. Over time, civilizations have often assumed that if another civilization lives in a different manner, in a manner that is hard to understand, then they must be beneath them. Look at how Native people were treated over the years and still are: as being slow, not intelligent and stupid!! Sorry but that is just the truth. The wisdom of the ancestors was not respected. It was assumed they were dumb because they did not live in the same fashion, because they did not speak English well, because they took their time answering, thinking about the question and their answer. Oftentimes, they were treated like savages with nothing to say. So following that logic, putting them in a cage for entertainment is not that farfetched.\nSelk\u2019nam Natives\nSo here we are in 1889, the year when, with the agreement of the Chilean government, 11 Selk\u2019Nams were taken to Europe to be exhibited in human zoos. This included a 8 year old boy. Carl Hagenbeck is credited as the one who made zoos as we know them now (reproducing the animal\u2019s natural habitat). However, Mr. Hagenbeck can also be \u201ccredited\u201d as the one who began human zoos. It is said that he is the one who took those 11 Selk\u2019nams to Europe to be exhibited in a cage. How nice of him\u2026I am sorry but I cannot help the sarcasm. But back then, the Pantagonian natives were a rarity. The Selk\u2019Nams along with the Tehuelche and the Kawesqar were weighted, measured and photographed and were expected to perform every day. Sometimes 6 to 8 times a day. So that Europeans could gasp at those savages from across the ocean. Can you think of something more demeaning than that? I cannot. Needless to say, the Selk\u2019Nams did not receive the best of care. Therefore, many of them did not make it back. Some did not even make it to Europe. Looking at the picture below, one can see that the conditions were more than sub-par. As the man in the picture basically looks like a lion tamer\u2026Look at their faces\u2026.\nSelk\u2019Nams with Maurice Maitre in Paris-1889\nI wish that was the end of it but no\nUnfortunately, the Selk\u2019Nams were not the only ones subjected to such humiliation. Numerous Indigenous people of the land were subjected to the same treatment. People of Africa, such as the pygmies, received the same treatment even in the 20th century. They were kept in enclosures, recreating \u201cnatural habitats\u201d (as though Europeans knew anything about what that looked like). People were basically used for entertainment, expected to perform tricks (e.g. making funny faces, shooting at targets with arrows). Their lives were placed on display, paraded as curiosities. Talk about degrading. Just so the \u201cwhite rich folks\u201d could be entertained and show to their children \u201cwhat savages looked like\u201d. As an animal lover, I am not a fan of zoos to begin with, a topic that induce mixed feelings in most. But a human zoo? That is crossing a major line. Look at the picture below. Some were taken in 1958!! And we are now left with extinct tribes that were forced (with the okay of the government) to leave their Mother Earth, their land, their traditions. For what? So that people could be entertained.\nAfrican girl in a Belgium human zoo, 1958\nThe sign in front of her exhibit read: Age, 23 years. Height, 4 feet 11 inches. Weight, 103 pounds. Brought from the Kasai River, Congo Free State, South Central Africa, by Dr. Samuel P. Verner. Exhibited each afternoon during September.\nI leave you with the trailer of the movie \u201cHuman zoo\u201d which tells the story of 25 Indigenous people from Chile who were taken to be part of the human zoos.

It was a week of remembering, making public history and healing. Indeed, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) made public its findings and shared them with all Canadians. But wait what is the TRC you ask? Let\u2019s look at the commission that made public a part of history that most Canadians are not aware of.\nWhy Truth and Reconciliation?\nHmmmmm why is truth and reconciliation needed? Well, because of centuries of unfairness, of injustice against the Native people of the land, of Turtle Island. What am I talking about? More specifically, I am talking about a part of Canadian (and USA) history that most of us did not learn in school. Residential schools. A part of history that most of us do not know about or do not feel connected to. \u201cI had nothing to do with it\u201d. Well, actually all Canadians had something to do with it. Residential schools (RS) were an government initiative in collaboration with the catholic church to \u201ctame the savages\u201d. An occasion to save the child and kill the indian. An occasion to make every child who attended hate their own culture and language. As well as a place of abuse of every kind.\nIt is reported that one out of 25 children who went to RS died in RS. Just about the same ratio as Canadian soldiers who died in Word War II. 150 000 children attended RS, hundred of thousands of families saw their kids being taken away in cattle wagons, in trucks, helpless while they drove away. Mothers trying to hide their children without success. Some having attended RS themselves, knowing full well what was to come for their young ones.\nGranted there might have been some good intentions behind RS. Some. Such as providing an education to Native children. However, the end result was generations of Native people abused, ridiculed and punished for speaking their language or practicing their traditions. To the point of hating those traditions themselves, to the point of hating being Indian. It is hard to believe that those schools were actually opened until 1996. But it is true. Leaving hundred of thousands of people in need of healing.\nHence the creation of the TRC\u2026.\nIn 2008, the Canadian government made a public apology to First Nations people for the suffering that took place in RS, for an initiative that absolutely and totally failed (my words not theirs). At the same time, the TRC was created. To look into what happened in order to get to the truth. The members of the Commission interviewed thousands of survivors to get their story, to find out what their experience was like. And those stories are forever recorded.\nOver the next six years, a series of events took place all over Canada. Truth and Reconciliation weeks all over. Weeks during which survivors got to sit down together to share. Sharing circles. Open to everyone who wanted to support. Not just listen as passive participants, but rather as active listeners, there to support, understand and be there to get to the truth, and continue listening no matter how hard it is to.\nI was one of those active participants, who sat and supported in Vancouver, BC in September 2013. It brought tears to my eyes to hear the stories, to hear the numbers the survivors were called while at RS (numbers rather than names were used). Mixed with the smell of smudge, the sound of drums. A place where trauma was discussed but also a place of healing.\nThose weeks were just part of the dialogue that took place over the years covering the TRC mandate. A mandate that came to an end this week. An emotional week filled with grief, sadness but also happiness and pride. RS were classified as having been places of \u201ccultural genocide\u201d (that in itself deserves a standing ovation), a place children were sent to lose their identity and culture and at times, die. Many who left their lives in RS were never even identified formally, as they just \u201cdisappeared\u201d. How can an apology from the Prime Minister ever be enough?\nWhat is next is a very long report from the TRC recording all the stories of the survivors they have interviewed. A report containing findings and recommendations for the Canadian government and population. So that healing can take place, so that reconciliation can happen with what happened. So that awareness is increased and so that no one says \u201cI had nothing to do with it\u201d anymore. It\u2019s not about placing the blame on anyone, it\u2019s about reparation, recognition and healing.\nWhat are some of the recommendations? More resources invested in the missing and murdered Aboriginal girls and women of Canada. A commitment to eliminate the over-representation of First Nations People in jails. The creation and funding for new Aboriginal education legislation, closing the gap for Native people. The creation of a commemorative holiday for the survivors of RS. The implementation of health-care rights for Aboriginal people. And so on. Yay, yay and yay! Finally!\nI think the TRC opened the Pandora box that was RS. What might have been swept under the rug in the past is now out in the open. And after centuries of abuse being ignored or hidden, it feels good to have things in the open. Does it repair what happened, does it make it okay? Of course not. But it is a beginning. Just a beginning. Recognition that healing is needed. And we all need to participate for that to happen.\nFinally, I urge you to look at the TRC website. Many interesting videos to watch. So much to learn on that site.\nAnd a great article for my US friends:\nhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/05/native-american-boarding-schools_n_7513310.html\nThis entry was posted in History and trauma and tagged healing, residential schools, survivors, truth and reconciliation commission, truth and reconciliation week on June 8, 2015 by Emily.\nSand Creek Massacre: The injustice that affected women and children\nI have been relatively absent this week on my site, as an infection of some sort left me with no energy and a very tenacious cough. If you follow my Facebook page you will have seen some posts about intergenerational trauma, residential schools and healing and reconciliation. More to come in another post. But for today, I want to continue talking about the history of trauma and genocides the Native people have gone through. Oftentimes, in the name of land, of who would have the most of it. So let\u2019s explore an event that is called the Sand Creek Massacre.\nLet\u2019s place a bit of context around the massacre. Turtle Island was already in a full on undeclared war for the land. The US Army and the US government were on a mission to get the land from the Indigenous people. Thousands of Cherokees had already been displaced and forced off their land during what is now referred to as the Trail of Tears in 1830. Then President Andrew Jackson approved the Indian Removal Act, which basically allowed him to remove any tribes living east of the Mississippi River. They say about 45 000 First Nation people were removed from their home, forced to take a journey on a treacherous terrain. Many left their life behind and later lost it out of hunger, fatigue, exhaustion or sickness. Jackson\u2019s Indian Removal Act marked the beginning of the Removal Era.\nIndeed, disputes over land were rampant. This was before the Indian Act of 1876, which officially confined Native people on reserves, an experience they never had before. As to them, there was no need for reserves. There was just land, their land. Why put boundaries on a land that was theirs, right?\nLindneaux painting of the Sand Creek Massacre\nWell a series of treaties followed, which promised numerous things to Native people, only to screw them over later on. Sorry, but there is no other way to say it. In 1861, another treaty was written with the Cheyenne and Arapaho nations. The treaty of Fort Wise. As expected, the treaty\u2019s result was land taken away from the Cheyenne and Arapaho, land that was given to them with previous treaties. What were they left with you ask? About 1/13th of their previous land. Why did they sign it then? Well, remember the context here. Chiefs were trying to maintain peace and to keep their people safe. But of course, not everyone was happy about the results of the Fort Wise treaty. In particular, a group named Dog Solders was greatly opposed to having the White man living on indigenous land. Tension was high.\nKeeping the land was important to Indian chiefs but so was trying to keep the peace. Enough blood had been shed (if only they knew it was only the beginning). So in September of 1864, Arapaho and Cheyenne chiefs met with the US military to seek peace east of Denver. You can see a group picture below.\ndelegation of Arapaho and Cheyenne chiefs\nHowever, things did not go as planned. Otherwise there would not have been a massacre\u2026Therefore, in November of 1864, commander Colonel John Chivington, with the okay of governor John Evans began his attack on the Cheyenne tribes in Colorado. Simultaneously, more Cheyenne camps were being attacked in Kansas under the supervision of Lieutenant George S. Eayre.\nNevertheless, the Native people being peaceful people, still had peace on their mind. Chiefs Black Kettle and White Antelope tried to establish a truce. Both chiefs received advice to establish camp at a certain spot and to fly the American flag as a sign of peace. The flag was supposed to represent friendliness. On November 29, 1864, when most men were out hunting, the cavalry of Colonel Chivington and his 700 troops descended upon the camp.\nNational historic site brochure from the National Park Service\nThe result? About 150-200 Indians died that day. Even though a white flag was put up, and the men were out hunting, the massacre occurred. Most victims were women and kids. Moreover, many of them were mutilated and paraded down the streets of Denver by dear Colonel Chivington. Even though eyewitnesses obviously were present, no charges were ever laid.\nSo there you have it. It feels like history repeating itself\u2026 The Native people, the Indigenous people of the land, wishing for peace and getting massacred instead. I am sorry if it sounds abrupt but it is what happened. And unfortunately, it was not over after the Sand Creek Massacre. More genocides were to come, including the very sad battle of Wounded Knee. We are talking years and years of stealing of the land, of deaths, unnecessary deaths, innocents losing their lives. We have come a long way since (with more misery in between) but there is some healing taking place. There is resilience in the people. So much of it. The Red Man will rise again. He is rising.\nThis entry was posted in History and trauma and tagged Cheyenne and Arapaho, Colonel John Chivington, Sand Creek Massacre, treaties on June 6, 2015 by Emily.",

        "title": "Tulisan Murtad: ISIS\u2019 Harsh Brand of Islam Is Rooted in Austere Saudi Creed",
        "raw_content": "ISIS\u2019 Harsh Brand of Islam Is Rooted in Austere Saudi Creed\nCaliph Ibrahim, the leader of the Islamic State, appeared to come out of nowhere when he matter-of-factly proclaimed himself the ruler of all Muslims in the middle of an otherwise typical Ramadan sermon. Muslim scholars from the most moderate to the most militant all denounced him as a grandiose pretender, and the world gaped at his growing following and its vicious killings.\nHis ruthless creed, though, has clear roots in the 18th-century Arabian Peninsula. It was there that the Saud clan formed an alliance with the puritanical scholar Muhammed ibn Abd al-Wahhab. And as they conquered the warring tribes of the desert, his austere interpretation of Islam became the foundation of the Saudi state.\nMuch to Saudi Arabia\u2019s embarrassment, the same thought has now been revived by the caliph, better known as Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, as the foundation of the Islamic State.\n\u201cIt is a kind of untamed Wahhabism,\u201d said Bernard Haykel, a scholar at Princeton. \u201cWahhabism is the closest religious cognate.\u201d\nThe Saudis and the rulers of other Persian Gulf states \u2014 all monarchies \u2014 are now united against the Islamic State, fearful that it might attack them from the outside or win followers within. Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have all participated with Washington in its attacks on the Islamic State\u2019s strongholds in Syria.\nFor their guiding principles, the leaders of the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, are open and clear about their almost exclusive commitment to the Wahhabi movement of Sunni Islam. The group circulates images of Wahhabi religious textbooks from Saudi Arabia in the schools it controls. Videos from the group\u2019s territory have shown Wahhabi texts plastered on the sides of an official missionary van.\nThis approach is at odds with the more mainstream Islamist and jihadist thinking that forms the genealogy of Al Qaeda, and it has led to a fundamentally different view of violence. Al Qaeda grew out of a radical tradition that viewed Muslim states and societies as having fallen into sinful unbelief, and embraced violence as a tool to redeem them. But the Wahhabi tradition embraced the killing of those deemed unbelievers as essential to purifying the community of the faithful.\n\u201cViolence is part of their ideology,\u201d Professor Haykel said. \u201cFor Al Qaeda, violence is a means to an ends; for ISIS, it is an end in itself.\u201d\nThe distinction is playing out in a battle of fatwas. All of the most influential jihadist theorists are criticizing the Islamic State as deviant, calling its self-proclaimed caliphate null and void and, increasingly, slamming its leaders as bloodthirsty heretics for beheading journalists and aid workers.\nThe upstart polemicists of the Islamic State, however, counter that its critics and even the leaders of Al Qaeda are all bad Muslims who have gone soft on the West. Even the officials and fighters of the Palestinian militant group Hamas are deemed to be \u201cunbelievers\u201d who might deserve punishment with beheading for agreeing to a cease-fire with Israel, one Islamic State ideologue recently declared.\n\u201cThe duty of a Muslim is to carry out all of God\u2019s orders and rulings immediately on the spot, not softly and gradually,\u201d the scholar, Al Turki Ben-Ali, 30, said in an online forum.\nThe Islamic State\u2019s sensational propaganda and videos of beheadings appear to do double duty. In addition to threatening the West, its gory bravado draws applause online and elsewhere from sympathizers, which helps the group in the competition for new recruits.\nThat is especially important to the Islamic State because it requires a steady flow of recruits to feed its constant battles and heavy losses against multiple enemies \u2014 the governments of Iraq and Syria, Shiite and Kurdish fighters, rival Sunni militants and now the United States Air Force.\nFor Al Qaeda, meanwhile, disputes with the Islamic State are an opportunity \u201cto reposition themselves as the more rational jihadists,\u201d said Daveed Gartenstein-Ross, a researcher at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.\nThe Islamic State\u2019s founder, Mr. Baghdadi, grafted two elements onto his Wahhabi foundations borrowed from the broader, 20th-century Islamist movements that began with the Muslim Brotherhood and ultimately produced Al Qaeda. Where Wahhabi scholars preach obedience to earthly rulers, Mr. Baghdadi adopted the call to political action against foreign domination of the Arab world that has animated the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda and other 20th-century Islamist movements.\nMr. Baghdadi also borrowed the idea of a restored caliphate. Where Wahhabism first flourished alongside the Ottoman Caliphate, the Muslim Brotherhood was founded shortly after that caliphate\u2019s dissolution, in 1924 \u2014 an event seen across the world as a marker of Western ascent and Eastern decline. The movement\u2019s founders took up the call for a revived caliphate as a goal of its broader anti-Western project.\nThese days, though, even Brotherhood members appear almost embarrassed by the term\u2019s anachronism, emphasizing that they use caliphate as a kind of spiritual idea irrelevant to the modern world of nation-states.\n\u201cEven for Al Qaeda, the caliphate was something that was going to happen in the far distant future, before the end times,\u201d said William McCants, a researcher on militant Islam at the Brookings Institution. The Islamic State \u201creally moved up the timetable,\u201d he said \u2014 to June 2014, in fact.\nAdhering to Wahhabi literalism, the Islamic State disdains other Islamists who reason by analogy to adapt to changing context \u2014 including the Muslim Brotherhood; its controversial midcentury thinker Sayed Qutb; and the contemporary militants his writing later inspired, like Ayman al-Zawahri of Al Qaeda. Islamic State ideologues often deem anyone, even an Islamist, who supports an elected or secular government to be an unbeliever and subject to beheading.\n\u201cThis is \u2018you join us, or you are against us and we finish you,\u2019 \u201d said Prof. Emad Shahin, who teaches Islam and politics at Georgetown University. \u201cIt is not Al Qaeda, but far to its right.\u201d\nSome experts note that Saudi clerics lagged long after other Muslim scholars in formally denouncing the Islamic State, and at one point even the king publicly urged them to speak out more clearly. \u201cThere is a certain mutedness in the Saudi religious establishment, which indicates it is not a slam dunk to condemn ISIS,\u201d Professor Haykel said.\nFinally, on Aug. 19, Sheikh Abdul Aziz al-Sheikh, the Saudi grand mufti, declared that \u201cthe ideas of extremism, radicalism and terrorism do not belong to Islam in any way, but are the first enemy of Islam, and Muslims are their first victims, as seen in the crimes of the so-called Islamic State and Al Qaeda.\u201d\nAl Qaeda\u2019s ideologues have been more vehement. All insist that the promised caliphate requires a broad consensus, on behalf of Muslim scholars if not all Muslims, and not merely one man\u2019s proclamation after a military victory.\n\u201cWill this caliphate be a sanctuary for all the oppressed and a refuge for every Muslim\" Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi, a senior jihadist scholar, recently asked in a statement on the Internet. \u201cOr will this creation take a sword against all the Muslims who oppose it\u201d and \u201cnullify all the groups that do jihad in the name of God\"\nAnother prominent Qaeda-linked jihadist scholar, Abu Qatada al-Falistini, echoed that: \u201cThey are merciless in dealing with other jihadists. How would they deal with the poor, the weak and other people\"\nBoth scholars have recently been released from prison in Jordan, perhaps because the government wants to amplify their criticism of the Islamic State.\nSection 4: Using violence\nBy Abu Bakr Naji\nThose who study theoretical jihad, meaning they study only jihad as it is written on paper, will never grasp this point well. Regrettably, the youth in our Umma, since the time when they were stripped of weapons, no longer understand the nature of wars. One who previously engaged in jihad knows that it is naught but violence, crudeness, terrorism, frightening (others), and massacring \u2014 I am talking about jihad and fighting, not about Islam and one should not confuse them. (Moreover, he knows) that he cannot continue to fight and move from one stage to another unless the beginning stage contains a stage of massacring the enemy and making him homeless [or \"frightened\"]. However, there is often a need for this violence in the other stages. (Further), he cannot continue the jihad with softness, whether the softness is in the mode of inviting others to join (the jihad), taking up positions, or (undertaking) the operations, since the ingredient of softness is one of the ingredients of failure for any jihadi action. It is better for those who have the intention to begin a jihadi action and are also soft to sit in their homes. If not, failure will be their lot and they will suffer shock afterwards. Whoever wants to verify and understand what I mean, he should (read) biographies and histories and examine what happened to the modern jihadi movement. Regardless of whether we use harshness or softness, our enemies will not be merciful to us if they seize us. Thus, it behooves us to make them think one thousand times before attacking us.\nThose who have not boldly entered wars during their lifetimes do not understand the role of violence and coarseness against the infidels in combat and media battles. The stage of domesticating the Muslims which they have already passed through has had an effect on them. The reality of this role must be understood by explaining it to the youth who want to fight. They are different from the Arabs at the beginning of the Prophet?\u2019s mission. The Arabs used to fight and know the nature of wars.\nIf we are not violent in our jihad and if softness seizes us, that will be a major factor in the loss of the element of strength, which is one of the pillars of the Umma of the Message. The Umma which possesses strength is the Umma which is able to protect the positions it has won and it is the Umma which boldly faces horrors and has the firmness of mountains. These are the good qualities which we have lost in this age.\nThe books of history tell us about the differences between some of the reformist jihadi movements and the righteous among the seekers (of truth), such as the Pure Soul and others, and between the Abbasid movement. Among the differences and one of the reasons for the success of the Abbasids and the failure of the others is the Abbasids' violence and the others' softness and protection of the blood (of others). This was to such an extent that the Pure Soul even used to ask the leaders of his army \u2014 who might have won \u2014 to protect the blood (of others) as much as possible. The leaders of his army were surprised at the request of the ruler and his method. Of course, the Pure Soul and other peacemakers [or \"reformists\"] were right to a certain extent in advocating that, since they were fighting Muslims and the rules governing the killing of (Muslim) tyrants are conflicting. However, praise be to God, we are confronting the Crusaders and their helpers among the apostates and their army [i.e. the current enemies of the mujahids are not Muslim]. Thus, there is nothing preventing us from spilling their blood; rather, we see that this is one of the most important obligations since they do not repent, undertake prayer, and give alms. All religion belongs to God.\nThus, the Companions (may God be pleased with them) understood the matter of violence and they were the best of those who understood this after the prophets. Even the Friend (Abu Bakr) and Ali b. Abi Talib (may God be pleased with them) burned (people) with fire, even though it is odious, because they knew the effect of rough violence in times of need. They did not carry it out and the leaders (among the Companions) and their troops did not undertake it because they loved killing; they were certainly not coarse people. By God! How tender were their hearts! They were the most merciful of creation by nature after the Prophet (peace be upon him). However, (the Companions) understood the nature of unbelief and its people and the nature of a need, in every situation, for severity and tenderness. In this regard, that which the people of knowledge of related regarding the Ridda Wars will clarify (this point): \"The people returned to their Jahiliyya state and disassociated themselves from the obligations of the Sharia.\nAmong them were those who abandoned (these obligations) completely. (Also) among them were those who rejected alms giving, claiming that it was only necessary to pay it to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and that Abu Bakr had no right to it. Also among them were those who publicly declared that they would perform it themselves and not send it to Abu Bakr, the Friend. The people of weak faith thought that the blade of the sword of Islam was withdrawn after the death of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and they seized the opportunity to exit this religion. Thus, apostasy took hold of the Arabian Peninsula and nothing remained to Islam save Mecca, Ta'if, Jawathi in Bahrain, and Medina. Apostasy encompassed tribes, villages, and groups and the Companions of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) rightfully rose against it and they zealously repulsed it and kept it at bay and they raised the head of diligence and jihad against it. An unfamiliar coarseness was seen in Abu Bakr (may God be pleased with him) that had not been witnessed previously. This was to such an extent that when messengers came to him with bad news which terrified the men, he only instructed (them) to increase the war and the fire. Dirar b. al-Azwar said: \"I saw no one other than the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) who was more filled with the ruthlessness of war than Abu Bakr.\nWe once informed him of evil news about the apostasy and its magnitude and it was as if what we had told him did not bother him at all. His orders for the army dealt only with the matter of severing the neck without clemency or slowness. And he (may God be pleased him) even burned a man named Iyas b. `Abd Allah b. `Abd Yalil, nicknamed al-Faja?\u2019a, when he cheated him by taking the money for the jihad against the apostates and then joined them, or more accurately became a brigand. The war spread across the whole peninsula and none of the Companions of the Messenger of God were concerned about it; rather, they were men of war and its people until the peninsula returned to the rule of Islam and its authority\". We are now in circumstances resembling the circumstances after the death of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and the outbreak of apostasy or the like of that which the believers faced in the beginning of the jihad. Thus, we need to massacre (others) and (to take) actions like those that were undertaken against the Banu Qurayza and their like. But if God should give us power and we take control and justice spreads, how tender the people of faith will be at that time and they will say to the people: \"Go, for you are free.\"\nIn addition to this, one should note that violence and coarseness must not transgress the limits of the Sharia and that one must pay heed to the benefit and harm (that results from) it, which the Sharia considers to be, in the rules of jihad, as one of the most important subjects for the guidance of creation, if not the most important subject. Pertaining to this, whenever there are reasonable people among the enemy who recognize the truth which every rational mind must assent to, we can lighten the severity of the violence against them. As for the haughty enemy and his troops and his supporters, that is another matter.\nAmong the things connected with the subject of violence is \"the policy of paying the price\": No harm comes to the Umma or to us without (the enemy) paying a price. Thus, in this stage of \"the power of vexation and exhaustion,\" following the strategy of \"paying the price\" spreads hopelessness in the hearts of the enemy. Any preventative [lit. \"aborting\"] act of any kind against the groups of vexation should be met with a reaction which makes the enemy completely \"pay the price\" for his crime so that he will be deterred from doing its like again and think one thousand times before undertaking an attack against us, such that he stops even at the mere thought of committing a crime and his actions are limited to defending himself.\n\"Paying the price\" must be accomplished even if it is after a long period, even if it is years. The enemy should be reminded of that in a statement justifying the operation of \"paying the price,\" which will make a deep impression on the leaders of the enemy that there is no hostile action they can undertake against Islam and its people, or against the mujahids for which they, their supporters, or their most powerful institutions will not pay a price over a long or short period of time. On account of that, feelings of hopelessness will creep into the enemy and he will begin to think about leaving the arena on account of his hopelessness because of his love for the world in the face of generations of mujahids who will persist in the battle and not be agitated by upheavals, but rather motivated by them to respond. As for the stage of \"the administration of savagery,\" we will confront the problem of the aerial attacks of the enemy ?\u2013 crusader or apostate ?\u2013 on military training camps or residential regions in areas which we administer. Even though defensive fortifications and trenches are put in place to deal with that problem, we should also follow the policy of \"paying the price\" when confronting the crime of the enemy. The policy of \"paying the price\" in this situation will deter the enemy and make him think one thousand times before attacking regions managed by a regime of the administration of savagery because he knows that he will pay the price (for doing so), even if (the retribution) comes later. Thus, the enemy will be inclined toward reconciliation, which will enable the regions of savagery to catch their breath and progress. This reconciliation means a temporary stop to fighting without any kind of treaties and concessions. We do not believe in an armistice with the apostate enemy, even if it was brokered with the primary infidel.\nHere is an important point: It is best if those that undertake operations of \"paying the price\" are other groups in other regions against which no hostility has been directed. There are a number of benefits in this, which we will expand on in the section concerning \"power\" [shawka]. Among the most important benefits is making the enemy feel that he is surrounded and that his affairs are exposed. If the enemy undertakes a hostile action against a region in the Arabian Peninsula or in Iraq, then the response will occur in Morocco or Nigeria or Indonesia. This will cause embarrassment for the enemy, especially if the region in which the operation of \"paying the price\" occurred submits to the control of the regimes of unbelief or the regimes of apostasy. Thus, (the enemy) will not find a good arena in which to respond. Further, that operation will work to raise the morale of those who had received (the initial) hostility and communicate a practical message to Muslims in every place that we are one Umma and that assistance is not limited by borders.\nIn the preceding depiction, \"paying the price\" is not limited to the Crusader enemy.

        "raw_content": "HomeSports BettingDetails of fantasy sports and news providers\nDetails of fantasy sports and news providers\nFantasy sport is a fairly recent development in the world of virtual games where the people taking part in that specific game behave as the owners of the game and build teams that compete against one another on the basis of statistical data which is generated by these people or teams. Fantasy sports have now become so well liked that these virtual games are getting to be more lifelike and therefore are being modeled on actual games which are played in professional sports. This industry is represented by the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. This association has a base covering large media corporations to its smaller and more recent counterparts and is primarily responsible for ensuring this segment\u2019s growth and expansion.\nSome of the popular fantasy games are fantasy football, fantasy basketball, and fantasy baseball and fantasy cricket. A few of the other fantasy sports are fantasy ice hockey, wrestling and golf. Fantasy football has two main types of challenges. Inside the head to head challenge there are weekly games which are played between opponents whilst in the total points challenge, it is the total points accrued over the season that determines the winner.\nFantasy baseball is probably the oldest of all the fantasy sports and is also regarded as being probably the most difficult games. It is also a great deal more time intensive than its other counterparts owing to the 162 games played each season as well as because of the oyunkuram305 inconsistency of the players. With this game too, players manage their imaginary teams competing with each other while using real life statistics, score points and performances of the baseball players. The popularity of fantasy baseball was taken over by fantasy football as the latter is played primarily once a week against baseball that is played every day. This allows the team owners a lot more flexibility and time.\nFantasy baseball was the original source of inspiration behind fantasy basketball. It was in the 1990s that fantasy basketball was given internet exposure as a result of its immense popularity. The players taking part in this game compute the basketball statistics of the actual NBA players. This game became so popular that NBA has launched a global competition called the Premier Fantasy Championships through the NBA.com fantasy. Regarded as being among the worlds most exclusive fantasy competition, this championship mirrors the real NBA games from 30 selected participants selected from the 9000 applications that come from around the globe. The NBA has additionally launched a very popular show known as the NBA Fantasy Hoops which supplies information and news from the world of fantasy basketball.\nYahoo! Sports offers comprehensive and detailed information and news regarding fantasy sports, scores, statistics and standing. Yahoo! Fantasy Sports was created in 1997 after the purchase of Sportasy.com by Yahoo. They have a substantial part of the fantasy sport base with fantasy baseball being its most favored game.\nESPN Fantasy sports also provide news and reviews on the world of fantasy sports. The ESPN fantasy sports newsletter covers all that is happening in this world and brings it to their viewers.\nAbsolutely free online sports wagering suggestions\nFree online sports betting has to be the aim of any sport bettor world wide.

        "raw_content": "From Lucid Culture \u2013 New York City\n\u201cI love you, Leon!\u201d a girl hollered from the back of the bar. Uncle Leon, frontman of Uncle Leon and the Alibis is not your typical babe magnet \u2013 he could be Joba Chamberlain\u2019s wiser, older brother (they have a similar midwestern blue-collar look). But he pulls demographics that your average bunch of Strokes wannabes would kill for. Back in the early-to-mid zeros these guys put on some of the funnest, funniest shows in town\u2026and then they broke up. It didn\u2019t really matter that they weren\u2019t particularly tight, because Leon\u2019s David Allan Coe-style songs were so funny. The first thing that hits you is what a good band this new version of the group is \u2013 they don\u2019t need to be funny all the time to be interesting. Lead guitarist Charlie Aceto plays the stuff Leon can\u2019t, and has a good handle on Bakersfield guitar \u2013 and he can do Social Distortion roots-punk and blues too. Maria on the drums is missed \u2013 she was always at least half of why the original band was so irresistible \u2013 but the guy who replaced her is solid and and can really swing, teaming up with bassist Neil Magnuson.\nThe thing that separates these guys from the rest of the funny country bands out there is that their jokes are usually pretty smart and edgy: they don\u2019t just rely on cornball cornpone humor. Leon\u2019s specialty is the battle of the sexes:\nthe good guys always lose, badly. That\u2019s how he comes across \u2013 that, and his resonant baritone probably explain the presence of all the women at his shows. Sure, he\u2019s having fun up there, but the guy can flat-out sing. That this particular set was successful without either of his big hits, \u201cI Hate My Job\u201d or \u201cDrugstore Roses\u201d (or his cover of \u201cBaby Got Back\u201d), speaks for how good the rest of the material was. They opened with a blackly funny faux-murder ballad based on a real-life encounter between Leon and a bounty hunter in a Dairy Queen parking lot somewhere in Kansas. \u201cMy Love Is Like a Monster Truck\u201d was what you\u2019d think it was: monster trucks use up a lot of rubber (that might not have actually been one of the lyrics, but it could have been). A slowly swaying, mournful ballad turned into a kiss-off anthem: \u201cWhen you said \u2018I love you,\u2019 I thought that meant just me,\u201d Leon explained. They blasted through a truck-driving number, \u201cBlue Sky and Blacktop\u201d and then a boisterous version of \u201cHot Rod Mamas\u201d, where he skewered \u201ccatalog girls\u201d with their perfect everything and their self-centeredness \u2013 he likes a girl with a little junk in the trunk but with brains too.\nThey did three covers: an understatedly vicious version of Hank Williams\u2019 \u201cMy Love For You Has Turned to Hate\u201d, the Merle Haggard classic \u201cSwingin\u2019 Doors\u201d and a practically halfspeed, swinging, straight-up country take of the Stones\u2019 \u201cDead Flowers\u201d \u2013 that song\u2019s retirement date may have come and gone a long time ago, but damned if these guys didn\u2019t make it sound fresh. They wrapped up their first set with a cowpunk number \u2013 Good Time Woman? Two Time Woman? Two Ton Woman? [\u201cGood-Time Woman\u201d \u2013 UL.] It could have been any of them, maybe more than one.\nUncle Leon is not only a singer, he\u2019s a co-founder of Brooklyn Country, who maintain an excellent site dedicated to country and roots music in New York, with a concert calendar, interviews and the occasional album review. Kind of like us, but more specialized. Uncle Leon and the Alibis\u2019 next gig is at midnight on 9/11 at Southpaw as part of the excellent three-day Brooklyn Country Music Festival.\nFiled under: Live Reviews, Press",

        "raw_content": "Physical punishment of children : time to end the defence of reasonable chastisement in the UK, USA and Australia\nRowland, A ORCID: 0000-0001-9564-0032, Gerry, F and Stanton, M 2017, 'Physical punishment of children : time to end the defence of reasonable chastisement in the UK, USA and Australia' , The International Journal of Children's Rights, 25 (1) , pp. 165-195.\nOfficial URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/15718182-02501007\nAs at March 2016, 49 states had reformed their laws to clearly prohibit all corporal punishment of children (United Nations 1989) in all settings, including the home (Global Initiative to End All Corporal Punishment of Children, n.d.) By January 2017 this number had reached 52. As the trend moves towards abolition, it is not an acceptable position for the United Kingdom (UK), the United States of America (USA) and Australia (Poulsen, 2015) to remain missing from that list. Whilst they are, effectively, a child (a person aged under 18 years of age), is the only person in all three countries that it is legal to hit. This article seeks to restate arguments in this area in a simple way to restart the debate in a modern context where understanding of child abuse is perhaps more widespread than it ever was in the past. On 20 October 2014 a report, Living on a Railway Line, was launched in the UK to mark the 25th anniversary of the signing of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which took place on 20 November 1989 (Rowland, 2014). It recommended removing the defence of reasonable chastisement in relation to the punishment of children. This article seeks to build on that agenda in a comparative context taking a three way perspective from the UK, the USA and Australia. It concludes that moves to prevent family violence are progressive but the position of a society where physical punishment of children is permitted yet child abuse is forbidden is not a tenable one. Reducing the number of cases of child abuse must begin with a clear message from society that physical punishment of children, whatever the circumstances, is unacceptable. The situation is serious enough to introduce aspirational legislation to remove justifications for physical punishment of children with the aim of modifying behaviour within society.\nThe International Journal of Children's Rights\nProfessor Andrew G Rowland",

Flavoenzymes are key in cellular respiration, acting as hydrogen receptors in mitochondrial electron transport. Riboflavin deficiency is known as pelegra, usually found in those who do not consume a diet rich in organ meats, dairy, leafy greens and whole grains. It is seen in the elderly, alcoholics and those with chronic liver disease and those on total parenteral nutrition. Deficiency may be associated with severe lactic acidosis, especially in HIV patients on triple antibiotics. It also functions as an antioxidant. Riboflavin absorption is decreased in hyperthyroidism.\nToxicity: Rare cases of diarrhea and polyurea in patients on 400 mg/day for migraines have been reported.\nDrug Interactions: Cholestyramine, Colestapol, oral contraceptives and probenecid may interfere with riboflavin absorption. Chlorpromazine, doxorubicin, and tricyclic antidepressants may interfere with its action.",

This aspect includes, in addition to the external appearance of the clock, so its internal mechanisms. Some are very varied and complicated. According to the same accuracy also increases the value of the clock.\nThe major brands of luxury watches offer exclusive guarantees, which is a great relief as a watch of great value requires an expert to repair or replace any parts.\nThe high quality of materials used to make luxury watches are another of its main features. A luxury brand is made \u200b\u200bfrom materials such as silver, gold, stainless steels and metals and durable than ever deslucir\u00e1n. They wear watches with diamonds, sapphires and other gemstones. A clock that is not luxury dress inlaid glass and gold-plated.\nThe performance of the luxury watches make a huge difference with the common watches. Timers, perpetual calendars, measuring the motion of the earth and sun, watches submersible in water sports with very precise timers are some of the functions of the luxury watches.\nIt also happens that most luxury watches are produced in limited series, sometimes with very few units per year in the most exclusive models, which increases its value. And if we add to this the unique style of each luxury brand, and its handmade, we think that our investment is not only a watch but a single object that could even be called a work of art.\nby adminPosted in Luxury WatchesTagged Characteristics, Luxury, watches, WristLeave a comment\nPlay games of chance with a Round-Baccarat from Azimuth\nLuxury Watch Hoops",

        "raw_content": "PUBLISHED : Wednesday, June 22, 2016 12:00 AM \u2013 The Hill Times\nThe Hill Times photograph by Jake Wright\nOn June 29, Canadians and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will host the Three Amigos summit in Ottawa. This summit will provide Canada with an important opportunity to reengage with its North American partners, to learn from two decades of experiences with NAFTA, and to reinvigorate our strategies going forward.\nThis summit follows Prime Minister Trudeau\u2019s state visit to Washington, D.C. in March, which was instrumental in renewing and strengthening Canada\u2019s relationship with the United States, and in setting in motion new initiatives in such areas as trade, innovation, and security.\nHosting the Three Amigos Summit comes at a most opportune time in the life of Canada\u2019s new federal government, and having all three North American countries at the table will provide an opportunity to build on \u2013 and strengthen \u2013 the trilateral relationship, and to share Canadians\u2019 views about issues of common concern.\nFrom my perspective as House of Commons co-chair of the Canada-United States Inter-Parliamentary Group, I\u2019m pleased with our recent opportunities to examine the current state of the trilateral relationship. For example, in December 2014, I was among those who attended the inaugural trilateral meeting of federal legislators from the NAFTA countries.\nThe meeting was the first occasion on which such legislators met to discuss issues of common concern. Coincidentally, it occurred in the same year as NAFTA\u2019s 20th anniversary. Our trilateral discussions have helped to lay the foundation for the achievement of future bilateral successes.\nI\u2019m also reminded of a presentation made to the Canada-U.S. Inter-Parliamentary Group\u2019s executive committee by David Petraeus and Robert Zoellick, who co-chaired the Independent Task Force on North America.\nThe Task Force\u2019s report makes the following critically important comment: \u201cThe Task Force\u2019s recommendations focus on four pivotal areas: capitalizing on North America\u2019s promising energy exports and increasing investments in infrastructure; bolstering economic competitiveness through the freer movement of goods and services across borders; strengthening security through a unified continental strategy and support for Mexico\u2019s efforts to solidify democratic rule of law; and fostering a North American community through comprehensive immigration reform and the creation of a mobility accord to facilitate the movement of workers.\u201d\nThe Task Force\u2019s October 2014 report, entitled North America: Time for a New Focus, has been embraced by some and disparaged by others, but I certainly believe that its recommendations are both useful and worthy of debate today, notwithstanding the somewhat heightened rhetoric in the United States\u2019 presidential campaign and pockets of anti-trade sentiment throughout North America.\nThe Inter-Parliamentary Group\u2019s focus on trilateralism continued last summer, when members of the group\u2019s Canadian section attended the 68th Annual Meeting of the Council of State Governments-WEST. Senator Percy Downe, who is the vice-chair of Canada\u2019s Standing Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Trade, represented the Canadian section at the meeting, and spoke about a report by the committee that calls for further strengthening of Canada\u2019s relationship with Mexico as Canada continues to build on its existing relationship with the United States.\nThe committee\u2019s report makes a statement with which I totally agree: the North American relationship has not been realizing its full potential, and changes within the three countries since NAFTA was implemented in 1994 call for new measures to ensure that North America remains globally competitive.\nI agree with those who suggest that North America is positioned to be the most competitive shared economic \u201cspace\u201d in the world. Amongst its recommendations, the report highlighted several key areas, including trilateral regulatory harmonization, new and innovative approaches to North American engagement, the need for the federal government to develop innovative tools to leverage Canada\u2019s diplomatic network in the United States and Mexico to respond to the needs of the business community, and the establishment of a new North American energy task force that would aid in the development of a continent-wide energy cooperation and competitiveness roadmap.\nThe upcoming Three Amigos summit will be an important building block in the trilateral relationship, and will hopefully serve as a mechanism for progress on shared goals. I know I speak on behalf of the Inter-Parliamentary Group\u2019s Canadian section in wishing the Three Amigos \u2013 Prime Minister Trudeau, U.S. President Barack Obama and Mexican President Enrique Pe\u00f1a Nieto \u2013 great success in working together for the benefit of citizens in all three countries.",

        "raw_content": "Unemployment benefits Article\nUnemployment benefits (depending on the jurisdiction also called unemployment insurance or unemployment compensation) are payments made by back authorized bodies to unemployed people. In the United States, benefits are funded by a compulsory governmental insurance system, not taxes on individual citizens. Depending on the jurisdiction and the status of the person, those sums may be small, covering only basic needs, or may compensate the lost time proportionally to the previous earned salary.\nUnemployment benefits are generally given only to those registering as unemployed, and often on conditions ensuring that they seek work and do not currently have a job, and are validated as being laid off and not fired for cause in most states.\n1.1 Expansion and spread\n10.1 Unemployment benefit I\n10.2 Unemployment benefit II\n24.1 Jobseeker's Allowance rates\n25.1 Federal-state joint programs\n25.2 Macroeconomic function\n25.3 Eligibility and amount\n25.4 Application process\n25.5 Disqualification/Appeals\n25.6 Measurement\n25.6.1 Current data\n25.6.2 Unemployment insurance outlook\n25.7 Economic rationale and issues\n25.7.1 Adverse selection\n25.7.2 Moral hazard\n25.7.3 Unemployment insurance effect on unemployment\n25.7.4 Unemployment insurance effect on employment\n25.7.5 Alternative policy\n25.7.6 Effect on state budgets\n25.7.7 Insurance funds\n25.7.8 Taxing or exempting benefits\n25.8 Job sharing / short-time working\n25.9 Payment through prepaid debit cards\n26 International Labour Convention\nLeaflet promoting the National Insurance Act 1911.\nThe first modern unemployment benefit scheme was introduced in the United Kingdom with the National Insurance Act 1911 under the Liberal Party government of H. H. Asquith. The popular measures were to combat the increasing influence of the Labour Party among the country's working-class population. The Act gave the British working classes a contributory system of insurance against illness and unemployment. It only applied to wage earners, however, and their families and the unwaged had to rely on other sources of support, if any. [1] Key figures in the implementation of the Act included Robert Laurie Morant, and William Braithwaite.\nBy the time of its implementation, the benefit was criticized by communists, who thought such insurance would prevent workers from starting a revolution, while employers and tories saw it as a \"necessary evil\". [2]\nThe scheme was based on actuarial principles and it was funded by a fixed amount each from workers, employers, and taxpayers. It was restricted to particular industries, particularly more volatile ones like shipbuilding, and did not make provision for any dependants. After one week of unemployment, the worker was eligible for receiving 7 shillings/week for up to 15 weeks in a year. By 1913, 2.3 million were insured under the scheme for unemployment benefit.\nExpansion and spread\nThe Unemployment Insurance Act 1920 created the dole system of payments for unemployed workers. [3] The dole system provided 39 weeks of unemployment benefits to over 11 million workers\u2014practically the entire civilian working population except domestic service, farm workers, railroad men, and civil servants.\nUnemployment benefits were introduced in Germany in 1927, and in most European countries in the period after the Second World War with the expansion of the welfare state. Unemployment insurance in the United States originated in Wisconsin in 1932. [4] Through the Social Security Act of 1935, the federal government of the United States effectively encouraged the individual states to adopt unemployment insurance plans.\nIn Argentina, successive administrations have used a variety of passive and active labour market interventions to protect workers against the consequences of economic shocks. The government's key institutional response to combat the increase in poverty and unemployment created by the crisis[ clarification needed] was the launch of an active unemployment assistance programme called Plan Jefas y Jefes de Hogar Desocupados (Program for Unemployed Heads of Households).\nMain article: Social Security (Australia)\nIn Australia, social security benefits, including unemployment benefits, are funded through the taxation system. There is no compulsory national unemployment insurance fund. Rather, benefits are funded in the annual Federal Budget by the National Treasury and are administrated and distributed throughout the nation by the government agency, Centrelink. Benefit rates are indexed to the Consumer Price Index and are adjusted twice a year according to inflation or deflation.\nThere are two types of payment available to those experiencing unemployment. The first, called Youth Allowance, is paid to young people aged 16\u201320 (or 15, if deemed to meet the criteria for being considered 'independent' by Centrelink). Youth Allowance is also paid to full-time students aged 16\u201324, and to full-time Australian Apprenticeship workers aged 16\u201324. People aged below 18 who have not completed their High School education, are usually required to be in full-time education, undertaking an apprenticeship or doing training to be eligible for Youth Allowance. For single people under 18 years of age living with a parent or parents the basic rate is A$91.60 per week. For over-18- to 20-year-olds living at home this increases to A$110.15 per week. For those aged 18\u201320 not living at home the rate is A$167.35 per week. There are special rates for those with partners and/or children.\nThe second kind of payment is called Newstart Allowance and is paid to unemployed people over the age of 21 and under the pension eligibility age. To receive a Newstart payment, recipients must be unemployed, be prepared to enter into an Employment Pathway Plan (previously called an Activity Agreement) by which they agree to undertake certain activities to increase their opportunities for employment, be Australian Residents and satisfy the income test (which limits weekly income to A$32 per week before benefits begin to reduce, until one's income reaches A$397.42 per week at which point no unemployment benefits are paid) and the assets test (an eligible recipient can have assets of up to A$161,500 if he or she owns a home before the allowance begins to reduce and $278,500 if he or she does do not own a home). The rate of Newstart allowance as at 12 January 2010 for single people without children is A$228 per week, paid fortnightly. (This does not include supplemental payments such as Rent Assistance.) Different rates apply to people with partners and/or children.\nEffectively, people have had to survive on $39 a day from Newstart since 1994, and there have been calls to raise this by politicians and NGO groups. [5]\nThe system in Australia is designed to support recipients no matter how long they have been unemployed. In recent years the former Coalition government under John Howard has increased the requirements of the Activity Agreement, providing for controversial schemes such as Work for the Dole, which requires that people on benefits for 6 months or longer work voluntarily for a community organisation regardless of whether such work increases their skills or job prospects. Since the Labor government under Kevin Rudd was elected in 2008, the length of unemployment before one is required to fulfill the requirements of the Activity Agreement (which has been renamed the Employment Pathway Plan) has increased from six to twelve months. There are other options available as alternatives to the Work for the Dole scheme, such as undertaking part-time work or study and training, the basic premise of the Employment Pathway Plan being to keep the welfare recipient active and involved in seeking full-time work.\nFor people renting their accommodation, unemployment benefits are supplemented by Rent Assistance, which, for single people as at 29 June 2012, begins to be paid when weekly rent is more than A$53.40. Rent Assistance is paid as a proportion of total rent paid (75 cents per dollar paid over $53.40 up to the maximum). The maximum amount of rent assistance payable is A$60.10 per week, and is paid when the total weekly rent exceeds A$133.54 per week. Different rates apply to people with partners and/or children, or who are sharing accommodation.\nCentrelink web-site\nDepartment of Human Services web-site\nIn Canada, the system is known as \"Employment Insurance\". Formally called \" Unemployment Insurance\", the name was changed in 1996 to alleviate perceived negative connotations. In 2015, Canadian workers pay premiums of 1.62% [6] of insured earnings in return for benefits if they lose their jobs.\nThe Employment and Social Insurance Act was passed in 1935 during the Great Depression by the government of R.B. Bennett as an attempted Canadian unemployment insurance programme. It was, however, ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of Canada as unemployment was judged to be an insurance matter falling under provincial responsibility. After a constitutional amendment was agreed to by all of the provinces, a reference to \"Unemployment Insurance\" was added to the matters falling under federal authority under the Constitution Act, 1867, and the first Canadian system was adopted in 1940. Because of these problems Canada was the last major Western country to bring in an employment insurance system. It was extended dramatically by Pierre Trudeau in 1971 making it much easier to get. The system was sometimes called the 10/42, because one had to work for 10 weeks to get benefits for the other 42 weeks of the year. It was also in 1971 that the UI program was first opened up to maternity and sickness benefits, for 15 weeks in each case.\nThe generosity of the Canadian UI programme was progressively reduced after the adoption of the 1971 UI Act. At the same time, the federal government gradually reduced its financial contribution, eliminating it entirely by 1990. The EI system was again cut by the Progressive Conservatives in 1990 and 1993, then by the Liberals in 1994 and 1996. Amendments made it harder to qualify by increasing the time needed to be worked, although seasonal claimants (who work long hours over short periods) turned out to gain from the replacement, in 1996, of weeks by hours to qualify. The ratio of beneficiaries to unemployed, after having stood at around 40 percent for many years, rose somewhat during the 2009 recession but then fell back again to the low 40s. [7] Some unemployed persons are not covered for benefits (e.g. self-employed workers), while others may have exhausted their benefits, did not work long enough to qualify, or quit or were dismissed from their job. The length of time one could take EI has also been cut repeatedly. The 1994 and 1996 changes contributed to a sharp fall in Liberal support in the Atlantic provinces in the 1997 election.\nIn 2001, the federal government increased parental leave from 10 to 35 weeks, which was added to preexisting maternity benefits of 15 weeks. In 2004, it allowed workers to take EI for compassionate care leave while caring for a dying relative, although the strict conditions imposed make this a little used benefit. In 2006, the Province of Quebec opted out of the federal EI scheme in respect of maternity, parental and adoption benefits, in order to provide more generous benefits for all workers in that province, including self-employed workers. Total EI spending was $19.677 billion for 2011-2012 (figures in Canadian dollars). [8]\nEmployers contribute 1.4 times the amount of employee premiums. Since 1990, there is no government contribution to this fund. The amount a person receives and how long they can stay on EI varies with their previous salary, how long they were working, and the unemployment rate in their area. The EI system is managed by Service Canada, a service delivery network reporting to the Minister of Employment and Social Development Canada.\nA bit over half of EI benefits are paid in Ontario and the Western provinces but EI is especially important in the Atlantic provinces, which have higher rates of unemployment. Many Atlantic workers are also employed in seasonal work such as fishing, forestry or tourism and go on EI over the winter when there is no work. There are special rules for fishermen making it easier for them to collect EI. EI also pays for maternity and parental leave, compassionate care leave, and illness coverage. The programme also pays for retraining programmes (EI Part II) through labour market agreements with the Canadian provinces.\nA significant part of the federal fiscal surplus of the Jean Chr\u00e9tien and Paul Martin years came from the EI system. Premiums were reduced much less than falling expenditures - producing, from 1994 onwards, EI surpluses of several billion dollars per year, which were added to general government revenue. [9] The cumulative EI surplus stood at $57 billion at 31 March 2008, [10] nearly four times the amount needed to cover the extra costs paid during a recession. [11] This drew criticism from Opposition parties and from business and labour groups, and has remained a recurring issue of the public debate. The Conservative Party, [12] chose not to recognize those EI surpluses after being elected in 2006. Instead, the Conservative government cancelled the EI surpluses entirely in 2010, and required EI contributors to make up the 2009, 2010 and 2011 annual deficits by increasing EI premiums. On 11 December 2008, the Supreme Court of Canada rejected a court challenge launched against the federal government by two Quebec unions, who argued that EI funds had been misappropriated by the government. [13]\n[2] History of UI in Canada, since the 1930s\n[3] Canadian Government Site for EI\n[4] Canadian Government Site for Maternity and Parental Benefits\n[5] Library of Parliament publication on EI premiums\nCBC Digital Archives - On The Dole: Employment Insurance in Canada\nThe level of benefit is set between the minimum wage and the minimum living allowance by individual provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities.[ citation needed]\nMain article: Unemployment benefits in Denmark\nSee also: European unemployment insurance\nEach Member State of the European Union has its own system and in general a worker should claim unemployment benefits in the country where they last worked. For a person working in a country other than their country of residency (a cross-border worker), they will have to claim benefits in their country of residence. [14]\nTwo systems run in parallel, combining a Ghent system and a minimum level of support provided by Kela, an agency of the national government. Unionization rates are high (70%), and union membership comes with membership in an unemployment fund. Additionally, there are non-union unemployment funds. Usually benefits require 26 weeks of 18 hours per week on average, and the unemployment benefit is 60% of the salary and lasts for 500 days. [15] When this is not available, Kela can pay either regular unemployment benefit or labor market subsidy benefits. The former requires a degree and two years of full-time work. The latter requires participation in training, education, or other employment support, which may be mandated on pain of losing the benefit, but may be paid after the regular benefits have been either maxed out or not available. [16] Although the unemployment funds handle the payments, most of the funding is from taxes and compulsory tax-like unemployment insurance charges.\nRegardless of whether benefits are paid by Kela or from an unemployment fund, the unemployed person receives assistance from the Ty\u00f6- ja elinkeinokeskus (TE-keskus, or the \"Work and Livelihood Centre\"), a government agency which helps people to find jobs and employers to find workers. In order to be considered unemployed, the seeker must register at the TE-keskus as unemployed. If the jobseeker does not have degree, the agency can require the jobseeker to apply to a school.\nIf the individual does not qualify for any unemployment benefit he may still be eligible for the housing benefit (asumistuki) from Kela and municipal social welfare provisions (toimeentulotuki). They are not unemployment benefits and depend on household income, but they have in practice become the basic income of many long-term unemployed.\nMain article: Unemployment benefits in France\nFrance uses a quasi Ghent system, under which unemployment benefits are distributed by an independent agency (UNEDIC) in which unions and Employer organisations are equally represented. UNEDIC is responsible for 3 benefits: ARE, ACA and ASR The main ARE scheme requires a minimum of 122 days membership in the preceding 24 months and certain other requirements before any claims can be made. Employers pay a contribution on top of the pre-tax income of their employees, which together with the employee contribution, fund the scheme.\nThe maximum unemployment benefit is (as of March 2009) 57.4% of EUR 162 per day (Social security contributions ceiling in 2011), or 6900 euros per month. [17] Claimants receive 57,4% of their average daily salary of the last 12 months preceding unemployment with the average amount being 1,111 euros per month. [18] In France tax and other payroll taxes are paid on unemployment benefits. In 2011 claimants received the allowance for an average 291 days.\nGermany has two different types of unemployment benefits.\nUnemployment benefit I\nThe unemployment benefit I in Germany is also known as the unemployment insurance. The insurance is administered by the federal employment agency and funded by employee and employer contributions. This in stark contrast to FUTA in the US and other systems; where only employers make contributions. Participation (and thus contributions) are generally mandatory for both employee and employer.\nAll workers with a regular employment contract (abh\u00e4ngig Besch\u00e4ftigte), except freelancers and certain civil servants (Beamte), contribute to the system. Since 2006, certain previously excluded workers have been able to opt into the system on a voluntary basis.\nThe system is financed by contributions from employees and employers. Employees pay 1.5% of their gross salary below the social security threshold and employers pay 1.5% contribution on top of the salary paid to the employee. The contribution level was reduced from 3.25% for employees and employers as part of labour market reforms known as Hartz. Contributions are paid only on earnings up to the social security ceiling (2012: 5,600 EUR).\nThe system is largely self-financed but also receives a subsidy from the state to run the Jobcenters.\nUnemployed workers are entitled to:\nLiving allowance known as unemployment benefit\nHelp in finding work\nUnemployed benefit is paid to workers who have contributed at least during 12 months preceding their loss of a job. The allowance is paid for half of the period that the worker has contributed. Claimants get 60% of their previous net salary (capped at the social security ceiling), or 67% for claimants with children. The maximum benefit is therefore 2964 Euros (in 2012). In 2011 the federal Work Agency had revenues and expenses of 37.5 bn EUR [19]\nAfter a change in German law effective since 2008, provided their job history qualifies them, benefit recipients aged 50 to 54 now receive an unemployment benefit for 15 months, those 55 to 57 for 18 months and those 58 or older receive benefits for 24 months. For those under the age of 50 who have not been employed for more than 30 months in a job which paid into the social security scheme, full unemployment benefit can be received for a maximum period of 12 months. Note how the duration of eligibility is variegated in Germany to account for the difficulty older people have re-entering the job market.\nUnemployment benefit II\nMain article: Hartz concept\nIf a worker is not eligible for the full unemployment benefits or after receiving the full unemployment benefit for the maximum of 12 months, he is able to apply for benefits from the so-called Arbeitslosengeld II (Hartz IV) programme, an open-ended welfare programme which ensures people do not fall into penury. A person receiving Hartz IV benefits is paid 404 EUR (2016) a month for living expenses plus the cost of adequate housing (including heating) and health care. Couples can receive benefits for each partner including their children. Additionally, children can get \"benefits for education and participation\". Germany does not have an EBT (electronic benefits transfer) card system in place and, instead, disburses welfare in cash or via direct deposit onto the recipient's bank account. People who receive Hartz 4 are obligated to seek for jobs and can be forced to take part in social programs or Mini jobs in order to receive this Hartz 4 money. Most of these programs and Mini jobs oblige the employee to work the same hours as a normal full-time job each day, 5 days a week.\nUnemployment benefits in Greece are administered through OAED ( Greek: \u039f\u03c1\u03b3\u03b1\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03cc\u03c2 \u0391\u03c0\u03b1\u03c3\u03c7\u03cc\u03bb\u03b7\u03c3\u03b7\u03c2 \u0395\u03c1\u03b3\u03b1\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03bf\u03cd \u0394\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1\u03bc\u03b9\u03ba\u03bf\u03cd, Manpower Employment Organization) and are available only to laid-off salaried workers with full employment and social security payments during the previous two years. The self-employed do not qualify, and neither do those with other sources of income. The monthly benefit is fixed at the \"55% of 25 minimum daily wages\", and is currently 360 euros per month, [20] [21] with a 10% increase for each under-age child. Recipients are eligible for at most twelve months; the exact duration depends on the collected number of ensema \u03ad\u03bd\u03c3\u03b7\u03bc\u03b1, that is social security payment coupons-stamps collected (i.e. days of work) during the 14 months before being laid off; the minimum number of such coupons, under which there is no eligibility, is 125, collected in the first 12 of the 14 aforementioned months. Eligibility since 1 January 2013, has been further constrained in that one applying for unemployment benefits for a second or more time, must not have received more than the equivalent of 450 days of such benefits during the last four years since the last time one had started receiving such benefits; if one has received unemployment benefits in this period for more than 450 days then there is no eligibility while if one has received less, then one is only eligible for at most the remaining days up until the maximum of 450 days is reached. [21]\nIn terms of an unemployment allowance, Greece allows for those found in unemployment, who are employed through an independent profession, to receive benefits if their latest paycheck had not exceed a certain amount, the current rate should not exceed \u20ac 1,467.35. When receiving benefits an individual cannot be earning money from a self-employed profession. If the income increases the fixed amount, a tax authority must issue a certificate that explains that the individual has \"interrupted the exercise of the profession\", which must be done within 15 days. [22] Unemployment benefits are also granted to those who have generated an income that does not exceed \u20ac1,467.35 from the final paycheck received from a liberal profession. In order to receive a grant the individual must not be receiving an income from the previous liberal profession. Under the European Commission, liberal professions are professions that require specialized training and that are regulated by \"national governments or professional bodies\". [23] Seasonal aid is also provided to workers whose jobs cannot be performed through the entire year are also provided benefits by the OAED. [24]\nUnder the OAED, individuals who are benefiting from long-term unemployment must be within the ages of 20 to 66 years of age and have a family income that does not exceed \u20ac 10,000 annually. [22] An individual becomes eligible for long-term benefits if the regular unemployment subsidy is exhausted after 12 months. After the expiration of the 12-month period an application towards long-term unemployment benefits must be submitted in the first 2 months. If an unemployed person seeks long term unemployment and has a child, the allowance is allowed to increase by \u20ac 586.08 (per child). Long-term unemployment can only be granted if the individual can be found registered under the OAED unemployment registrar. [22]\nTo receive unemployment benefits in Iceland, one must submit an application to the Directorate of Labour (Vinnum\u00e1lastofnun) and meet a specific criteria set forth by the department. [25] Icelandic employment rates have traditionally been higher than every other OECD country. In the most recent financial quarter, 85.8 percent of the Icelandic working-age population were employed, with only 2.8 percent of the population unemployed. [26] When broken down by age group, Iceland's labor force is highly active, with 74.9 percent of the population between the ages of 15 to 24 years old and 89.4 percent of people between the ages of 25 to 55 years old active in the labor market. [26] This low rate of unemployment is attributed to the adoption of the Ghent system, which has been adopted by the countries of Denmark, Finland and Sweden, and highly emphasizes trade and labor unions to provide unemployment benefits and protections to workers, which ultimately has led to higher union membership than other capitalist economies. [27] The safety net that these unions provide also leads to more stable job retention and less reliance on part-time employment. Only 11.9 percent of the working population is dependent on temporary employment. [26]\nUnlike purely social-democratic states in Europe, the Nordic model that Iceland adopted borrows aspects of both a social-democratic and liberal- welfare state. [28] Iceland not only sees high government involvement in providing social welfare and amenities as with the social-democratic model, but like the liberal- welfare model, it is also heavily reliant on free trade and markets. [28] The country relies on an open capitalistic market for economic growth, yet also embraces a corporatist system that allows for wage bargaining to occur between the labor force and employers in order to protect workers and ensure provisions like unemployment benefits are ensured. [29] Currently, the legislation that ensures these benefits is The Act on Trade Unions and Industrial Disputes, which was adopted in 1938 and has been amended five times since its inception to adjust to the rise of globalization. In Section 1, Articles 1-13 grant trade unions the right to organize and negotiate with employers over fair wages for its members as well as representation for their members in the event of workplace conflicts. [30] These rights for organized unions set forth by the Ministry of Welfare not only provide the country's labor force fair and equal representation within their respective industries, but also allow for these organizations to maintain an active relationship with the Icelandic government to discuss economic issues, promote labor and social equality, and ensure benefits for unemployed laborers, as these unions are highly centralized and not politically affiliated. [30]\nUnemployment benefits in Iceland (atvinnuleysisb\u00e6tur) can involve up to 100 percent reimbursement per month for wage earners for a maximum of 30 months. [31] However, these rates of reimbursement are determined by previous status of employment, such as whether an individual is a wage-earner or is self-employed, as well as meeting certain mandates such as being a current resident of Iceland, be actively searching for employment, and retaining a 25 percent position for three months within the past 12 months before filing for unemployment. [31] Unemployed workers can be compensated through either basic or income-linked benefits. Basic unemployment benefits can cover both wage-earning and self-employing individuals for the first half-month (10 days) after they lose their job, whereas income-linked benefits can cover wage-earning and self-employing individuals for up to three months based on a set salary index and length of employment. [25] However, those who are unemployed must report to the Directorate of Labour once a month to reaffirm their status of unemployment and that they are actively searching for employment or unemployment benefits could be revoked. [32] Under the Icelandic Labour Law, employees must be given a notice period of termination that can range from 12 days to six months and is determined by the length of previous employment under the same employer. [33]\nPeople aged 18 and over and who are unemployed in Ireland can apply for either the Jobseeker's Allowance (Li\u00fantas do Lucht Cuardaigh Fosta\u00edochta) or the Jobseeker's Benefit (Sochar do Lucht Cuardaigh Fosta\u00edochta). Both are paid by the Department of Social Protection and are nicknamed \"the dole\".\nUnemployment benefit in Ireland can be claimed indefinitely for as long as the individual remains unemployed. The standard payment is \u20ac193 per week for those aged 26 and over. For those aged 18 to 24 the rate is \u20ac100 per week. For those aged 25 the weekly rate is \u20ac144. Payments can be increased if the unemployed has dependents. For each adult dependent, another \u20ac124.80 is added, \u20ac100 if the recipient (as opposed to the dependent) is aged 18 to 24, and for each child dependent \u20ac29.80 is added.\nThere are more benefits available to unemployed people, usually on a special or specific basis. Benefits include the Rent Supplement, the Mortgage Interest Supplement and the Fuel Allowance, among others. People on a low income (which includes those on JA/JB) are entitled to a Medical Card (although this must be applied for separately from the Health Service Executive) which provides free health care, optical care, limited dental care, aural care and subsidised prescription drugs carrying a \u20ac2.50 per item charge to a maximum monthly contribution of \u20ac25 per household (as opposed to subsidised services like non medical-card holders).\nTo qualify for Jobseekers Allowance, claimants must satisfy the \"Habitual Residence Condition\": they must have been legally in the state (or the Common Travel Area) for two years or have another good reason (such as lived abroad and are returning to Ireland after become unemployed or deported). This condition does not apply to Jobseekers Benefit (which is based on Social Insurance payments).\nMore information on each benefit can be found here:\nSee also: Welfare in Israel\nIn Israel, unemployment benefits are paid by Bituah Leumi (the National Insurance Institute), to which workers must pay contributions. Eligible workers must immediately register with the Employment Service Bureau upon losing their jobs or jeopordize their eligibility, and the unemployment period is considered to start upon registration with the Employment Service Bureau. To be eligible for unemployment benefits, an employee must have completed a \"qualifying period\" of work for which unemployment insurance contributions were paid, which varies between 300 and 360 days. Employees who were involuntarily terminated from their jobs or who terminated their own employment and can provide evidence of having done so for a justified reason are eligible for immediately receiving unemployment benefits, while those who are deemed to have terminated their employment of their own volition with no justified reason will only begin receiving unemployment benefits 90 days from the start of their unemployment period. [34] [35] [36]\nUnemployment benefits are paid daily, with the amount calculated based on the employee's previous income over the past six months, but not exceeding the daily average wage for the first 125 days of payment and two-thirds of the daily average wage from the 126th day onwards. During the unemployment period, the Employment Service Bureau assists in helping locate suitable work and job training, and regularly reporting to the Employment Service Bureau is a condition for continuing to receive unemployment benefits. A person who was offered suitable work or training by the Employment Service Bureau but refused will only receive unemployment benefits 90 days after the date of the refusal, and 30 days' worth of unemployment benefits will be deducted for each subsequent refusal. [34] [35] [36]\nMembers of kibbutzim and moshavim are typically not covered by the national unemployment system and are covered by the community's own social welfare system, unless they are employed outside of their community or directly by the community.\nDetails of National Insurance Institute\nThe National Insurance Institute, known in Hebrew as Bituach Leumi Israel, is the general government unemployment agency system in which unemployed workers may go to receive unemployment assistance.\n[37] The National Insurance Institute allocates subsistences to help unemployed individuals find work. In order to receive subsistences, the unemployed workers must be a citizen, have unemployment registration with the Israeli Employment Service, and have been previously employed.\n[38] There are also unemployment benefits for the Hebrew immigrants who have not yet been able to find employment or who are receiving below minimum wage pay. The time period that these Israeli immigrants are qualified to receive unemployment benefits is during the first 12 months of their immigration in Israel. They are entitled to support from  Havtachat Hachnasa, which is income support that is allocated from National Insurance\nThere is also a severance pay for employees who have been fired without cause in Israel. For these types of unemployed Israelis, they entitled to a severance pay of one month\u2019s pay for each year that the unemployed individual had worked for his or her previous employer.\n[40] Another eligibility that an unemployed individual must have to receive subsistences from the National Insurance Institute is for the unemployed individual to be at least 20 years of age. There are exceptions to this rule such as including unemployment benefits to 18-20 years olds who are the main supporter of a family or of a child.\n[41] Unions are also involved with the unemployment system in Israel. One such union group is the Histadrut which is commonly known as the General Organization of Workers in Israel. One of the Histadrut\u2019s main objectives is to creates job assistance programs to help unemployed workers back into the workforce.\n[42] Dr. Roby Nathanson, a doctor in economics at the University of K\u00f6l, believes these job replacement programs are successful due to the job unemployment rate in Israel.\n[43] The unemployment rate in Israel in 2009 had been 9.5% and has since dropped to around 4% in 2018.\nhttps://www.btl.gov.il/English%20Homepage/Benefits/Unemployment%20Insurance/Pages/default.aspx [45] https://www.gov.il/en/service/unemployment_benefits [46] https://www.nbn.org.il/aliyahpedia/employment-israel/employee-compensation-rights-benefits-israel/unemployment-benefits-new-olim/ [47] https://www.btl.gov.il/English%20Homepage/Benefits/Unemployment%20Insurance/Pages/Conditionsofeligibility.aspx [48] http://www.macro.org.il/en/publications/?id=144 [49] http://www.macro.org.il/en/staff/?id=13 [50] https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/israel-domestic-unemployment-rate [51]\nMain article: Unemployment benefits in Italy\nUnemployment benefits in Italy consists mainly in cash transfers based on contributions (Assicurazione Sociale per l'Impiego, ASPI), up to the 75 percent of the previous wages for up to sixteen months. Other measures are:\nRedundancy Fund (Cassa integrazione guadagni, or CIG): cash benefits provided as shock absorbers to those workers who are suspended or who work only for reduced time due to temporary difficulties of their factories, aiming to help the factories in financial difficulties, by relieving them from the costs of unused workforce\nSolidarity Contracts (Contratti di solidariet\u00e0): in the same cases granting CIG benefits, companies can sign contracts with reduced work time, to avoid dismissing redundancy workers. The state will grant to those workers the 60 percent of the lost part of the wage.\nMobility allowances (Indennit\u00e0 di mobilit\u00e0),: if the Redundancy Fund does not allow the company to re-establish a good financial situation, the workers can be entitled to mobility allowances. Other companies are provided incentives for employing them. This measure has been abolished in 2012 and will stop working in 2017.\nIn the Italian unemployment insurance system all the measures are income-related, and they have an average decommodification level. The basis for entitlement is always employment, with more specific conditions for each case, and the provider is quite always the state. An interesting feature worthy to be discussed is that the Italian system takes in consideration also the economic situation of the employers, and aims as well at relieving them from the costs of crisis.\nMain article: Unemployment insurance (Japan)\nUnemployment benefits in Japan are called \"unemployment insurance\" and are closer to the US or Canadian \"user pays\" system than the taxpayer funded systems in place in countries such as Britain, New Zealand, or Australia. It is paid for by contributions by both the employer and employee. [52]\nOn leaving a job, employees are supposed to be given a \"Rishoku-hyo\" document showing their ID number (the same number is supposed to be used by later employers), employment periods, and pay (which contributions are linked to). The reason for leaving is also documented separately. These items affect eligibility, timing, and amount of benefits. [53] The length of time that unemployed workers can receive benefits depends on the age of the employee, and how long they have been employed and paying in. [54]\nIt is supposed to be compulsory for most full-time employees. [55] If they have been enrolled for at least 6 months and are fired or made redundant, leave the company at the end of their contract, or their contract is non-renewed, the now-unemployed worker will receive unemployment insurance. If a worker quit of their own accord they may have to wait between 1 and 3 months before receiving any payment.\nMexico lacks a national unemployment insurance system, but it does have five programs to assist the unemployed:\nMexico City Unemployment Benefit Scheme - The only unemployment insurance system based on worker contributions exists in Mexico City. Unemployed residents of Mexico City who are at least 18 years of age, have worked for at least six months, have no income, and are actively seeking work are eligible for unemployment benefits for up to six months, which are composed of payments of 30 days' worth of minimum wage per month. [56]\nMexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) - This institution insures workers in the formal sector, providing pensions and health insurance. Workers insured by the IMSS who are unemployed may withdraw a maximum of 30 days' worth of pension savings every five years. [56] However, this does not cover the majority of workers, as 58% of the labor force is in the informal sector.\nNational Employment Service - This agency, which has 165 offices nationwide, offers financial support in learning new skills to those aged 16 and above who are unemployed or underemployed, and assistance in finding new jobs in the form of information on vacancies and job fairs. [56]\nTemporary Employment Program - This scheme is designed to aid unemployed people who live in rural areas with high unemployment rates, any area undergoing a financial crisis, or an area that has been hit by a natural disaster or some other kind of emergency. The program funds projects to boost employment by hiring local workers aged 16 and above in jobs such as building infrastructure and promoting development, and conserving the environment and cultural heritage sites. They are paid a salary at 99% of the local minimum wage for a maximum of 132 days a year. [56]\nIncome Generating Options Program - People living in poverty in an area of up to a maximum of 15,000 inhabitants are eligible for funding for projects to generate income for themselves. [56]\nUnemployment benefits in the Netherlands were introduced in 1949. Separate schemes exist for mainland Netherlands and for the Caribbean Netherlands.\nThe scheme in mainland Netherlands entails that, according to the Werkloosheidswet (Unemployment Law, WW), employers are responsible for paying the contributions to the scheme, which are deducted from the salary received by the employees. In 2012 the contribution was 4.55% of gross salary up to a ceiling of 4,172 euros per month. The first 1,435.75 euros of an employees gross salaries are not subject to the 4.55% contribution.\nBenefits are paid for a maximum period of 38 months and claimants get 75% of last salary for 2 months and 70% thereafter with a maximum benefit of 3128 euros, depending on how long the claimant has been employed previously. Workers older than 50 years who are unemployed for over 2 months are entitled to a special benefit called the IOAW, if they do not receive the regular unemployment benefit (WW).\nMain article: Social welfare in New Zealand\nIn New Zealand, Jobseeker Support, previously known as the Unemployment Benefit and also known as \"the dole\" provides income support for people who are looking for work or training for work. It is one of a number of benefits administered by Work and Income, a service of the Ministry of Social Development.\nTo get this benefit, a person must meet the conditions and obligations specified in section 88A to 123D Social Security Act 1964. These conditions and obligations cover things such as age, residency status, and availability to work. [57]\nThe amount that is paid depends on things such as the person's age, income, marital status and whether they have children. It is adjusted annually on 1 April and in response to changes in legislature. Some examples of the maximum after tax weekly rate at 1 April 2011 are:\n$175.10 for a single person aged 20\u201324 years without children\n$210.13 for a single person 25 years or over\n$325.98 for a sole parent\n$350.20 for a married, de facto or civil union couple with or without children ($167.83 each). [58]\nMore information about this benefit and the amounts paid are on the Work and Income website. [59]\nWork and Income web-site\nMain article: Unemployment benefits in Spain\nThe Spanish unemployment benefits system is part of the Social security system of Spain. Benefits are managed by the State Public Employment Agency (SEPE).The basis for entitlement is having contributed for a minimum period during the time preceding unemployment, with further conditions that may be applicable. The system comprises contributory benefits and non-contributory benefits.\nContributory benefits are payable to those unemployed persons with a minimum of 12 months contributions over a period of 6 years preceding unemployment. The benefit is payable for 1/3 of the contribution period. The benefit amount is 70% of the legal reference salary plus additional amounts for persons with dependants. The benefit reduces to 60% of the reference salary after 6 months. The minimum benefit is 497 euros per month and the maximum is 1087,20 euros per month for a single person. [60] The non-contributory allowance is available to those persons who are no longer entitled to the contributory pension and who do not have income above 75% of the national minimum wage.\nMain article: Unemployment benefits in Sweden\nSweden uses the Ghent system, under which a significant proportion of unemployment benefits are distributed by union unemployment funds. Unemployment benefits are divided into a voluntary scheme with income related compensation up to a certain level and a comprehensive scheme that provides a lower level of basic support. The voluntary scheme requires a minimum of 12 months membership and 6 months employment during that time before any claims can be made. Employers pay a fee on top of the pre-tax income of their employees, which together with membership fees, fund the scheme (see Unemployment funds in Sweden).\nThe maximum unemployment benefit is (as of July 2016) SEK 980 per day. During the first 200 days the unemployed will receive 80 percent of his or her normal income during the last 12 months. From day 201-300 this goes down to 70 percent and from day 301-450 the insurance covers 65 percent of the normal income (only available for parents to children under the age of 18). In Sweden tax is paid on unemployment benefits, so the unemployed will get a maximum of about SEK 10,000 per month during the first 100 days (depending on the municipality tax rate). In other currencies, as of June 2017, this means a maximum of approximately \u00a3900, $1,150, or \u20ac1,000, each month after tax. Private insurance is also available, mainly through professional organisations, to provide income related compensation that otherwise exceeds the ceiling of the scheme. The comprehensive scheme is funded by tax.\nSaudi Arabia is an economic welfare state with free medical care [61] and unemployment benefits. [62] However, the country relies not on taxation but mainly oil revenues to maintain the social and economic services to its populace.\nPayment: 2000 SAR (USD $534) for only 12 months for unemployed person from ages 18\u201335\nSocial Services of Saudi Arabia\nBy law, legally employed workers, regardless of their citizenship are eligible for unemployment benefits given that they are at least 18 years old, the employees contribute 1% to unemployment funds while the employers contribute 2%, and the workers are eligible to receive benefits after 600 days of contributions within the preceding 3 years of employment. the benefit payment is 50% for the average daily earnings based on the last 4 months and cannot be higher than the mimimum wage (per industry). Benefits may be paid for a max of 1,080 days depending on the number of contributions. some are skeptical of how well the system is functioning in turkey [63]\nMain article: Jobseeker's Allowance\nJobseeker's Allowance rates\nJSA for a single person is changed annually, and at 3 August 2012 the maximum payable was \u00a371.00 per week for a person aged over 25 and \u00a356.25 per week for a person aged 18\u201324. [64] The rules for couples where both are unemployed are more complex, but a maximum of \u00a3112.55 per week is payable, dependent on age and other factors. Income-based JSA is reduced for people with savings of over \u00a36,000, by a reduction of \u00a31 per week per \u00a3250 of savings, up to \u00a316,000. People with savings of over \u00a316,000 are not able to get IB-JSA at all. [65] The British system provides rent payments as part of a separate scheme called Housing Benefit.\nUnemployment benefit is commonly referred to as \"the dole\"; to receive the benefit is to be \"on the dole\". \"Dole\" here is an archaic expression meaning \"one's allotted portion\", from the synonymous Old English word d\u0101l. [66]\nUnemployment rate by county from January 1990 - March 2017\nIn the United States, there are 50 state unemployment insurance programs plus one each in the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and United States Virgin Islands. Though policies vary by state, unemployment benefits generally pay eligible workers as high as $783.00 per week in Massachusetts to a low as $235 per week maximum in Mississippi. [67] Benefits are generally paid by state governments, funded in large part by state and federal payroll taxes levied against employers, to workers who have become unemployed through no fault of their own. Eligibility requirements for unemployment insurance vary by state, but generally speaking, employees not fired for misconduct (\"terminated for cause\") are eligible for unemployment benefits, while those fired for misconduct (this sometimes can include misconduct committed outside the workplace, such as a problematic social media post or committing a crime) are not. [68]\nIn every state, employees who quit their job without \"good cause\" are not eligible for unemployment benefits, but the definition of good cause varies by state. In some states, being fired for misconduct permanently bars the employee from receiving unemployment benefits, while in others it only disqualifies the employee for a short period. This compensation is classified as a type of social welfare benefit. According to the Internal Revenue Code, these types of benefits are to be included in a taxpayer's gross income. [69]\nThe standard time-length of unemployment compensation is six months, although extensions are possible during economic downturns. During the Great Recession, unemployment benefits were extended to 73 weeks. [70]\nThe Supreme Court held that federal unemployment law is constitutional and does not violate the Tenth Amendment in Steward Machine Company v. Davis, 301 U.S. 548 (1937).\nFederal-state joint programs\nUnemployment insurance is a federal-state program financed through federal and state payroll taxes (federal and state UI taxes). [71] In most states employers pay state and federal unemployment taxes if:\n(1) they pay wages to employees totaling $1,500 or more in any quarter of a calendar year; or, [71]\n(2) they had at least one employee during any day of a week during 20 weeks in a calendar year, regardless of whether the weeks were consecutive. Some state laws differ from the federal law. [71]\nTo facilitate this program, the U.S. Congress passed the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA), which authorizes the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to collect an annual federal employer tax used to fund state workforce agencies. FUTA covers the costs of administering the Unemployment Insurance and Job Service programs in all states. In addition, FUTA pays one-half of the cost of extended unemployment benefits which are triggered in periods of high state unemployment. FUTA also provides a fund from which states UI funds may borrow to pay benefits. As originally established, the states paid the federal government. [71]\nThe FUTA tax rate was originally three percent of taxable wages collected from employers who employed at least four employees, [72] and employers could deduct up to 90 percent of the amount due if they paid taxes to a state to support a system of unemployment insurance which met Federal standards, [4] but the rules have recently changed. The FUTA tax rate is now, as of 30 June 2011, 6.0 percent of taxable wages of employees who meet both the above and following criteria, [71] and the taxable wage base is the first $7,000 paid in wages to each employee during a calendar year. [71] Employers who pay the state unemployment tax on time receive an offset credit of up to 5.4 percent regardless of the rate of tax they pay their state. Therefore, the net FUTA tax rate is generally 0.6 percent (6.0 percent - 5.4 percent), for a maximum FUTA tax of $42.00 per employee, per year (.006 X $7,000 = $42.00). State law determines individual state unemployment insurance tax rates. [71] In the United States, unemployment insurance tax rates use experience rating. [73]\nAlthough the taxable wage base for each state/territory is at least $7,000 as mandated by FUTA, only four states or territories still remain at this minimum. [74] These states/territories include Arizona, California, Florida, and Puerto Rico. Florida and Puerto Rico maintain tax rates similar to those of other states, but Arizona and California both have a higher maximum tax rate. Florida's minimum tax rate is 0.1% and the state maximum is 5.4% [75] and in Puerto Rico, employers are taxed between 2.4% and 5.4% depending on their experience rating. [76] As of 2015, Arizona's minimum was 0.03%, but its maximum was 7.79%. [77] California's tax rate on the taxable wage base is currently higher than the federal minimum of 6.0%. Employers are currently on a tax schedule that requires them to pay a minimum of 1.5% and a maximum 6.2% of the taxable wage base. [78] Even with the federal tax credit of 5.4%, Arizona employers could end up paying $175 per employee ((.0779-.054) x $7,000) and California employers could pay $56 per employee ((.062-.054) x $7,000) versus the FUTA maximum of $42.\nWithin the above constraints, the individual states and territories raise their own contributions and run their own programs. The federal government sets broad guidelines for coverage and eligibility, but states vary in how they determine benefits and eligibility.\nFederal rules are drawn by the United States Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. For most states, the maximum period for receiving benefits is 26 weeks. There is an extended benefit program (authorized through the Social Security Acts) that may be triggered by the state unemployment rate. Congress has often passed temporary programs to extend benefits during recessions. This was done with the Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation (TEUC) program in 2002-2003, which has since expired, [79] and remained in force through 2 June 2010, with the Extended Unemployment Compensation 2008 legislation. [80] In July 2010, legislation that provides an extension of federal extended unemployment benefits through November 2010 was signed by the president. The legislation extended benefits for 2.3 million unemployed workers who had exhausted their unemployment benefits.\nThe federal government lends money to the states for unemployment insurance when states run short of funds which happens when the state's UI fund cannot cover the cost of current benefits. A high unemployment rate shrinks UI tax revenues and increases expenditures on benefits. State UI finances and the need for loans are exacerbated when a state cuts taxes and increases benefits. FUTA loans to state funds are repaid with interest.\nCongressional actions to increase penalties for states incurring large debts for unemployment benefits led to state fiscal crises in the 1980s.[ citation needed]\nOne interesting feature of the UI tax is that it targets firms that have recently had layoffs, potentially hitting distressed firms. Recent work shows that UI tax increases significantly reduce hiring and employment in affected firms, potentially eroding the macroeconomics stabilizing influence of the UI program. [81]\nMacroeconomic function\nTo Keynesians, unemployment insurance acts as an automatic stabilizer. [82] Benefits automatically increase when unemployment is high and fall when unemployment is low, smoothing the business cycle; however, others claim that the taxation necessary to support this system serves to decrease employment.[ citation needed]\nEligibility and amount\nIn order to receive benefits, a person must have worked for at least one quarter in the previous year and have been laid-off by an employer. Workers who were temporary or were paid under the table are not eligible for unemployment insurance. If a worker quits without good cause or is fired for misconduct, then they are normally not eligible for UI benefits. There are five common reasons a claim for unemployment benefits are denied: the worker is unavailable for work, the worker quit his or her job without good cause, the worker was fired for misconduct, refusing suitable work, and unemployment resulting from a labor dispute. [83] [84] In practice, it is only practical to verify whether the worker quit or was fired. If the worker's claim is denied, then they have the right to appeal. If the worker was fired for misconduct, then the employer has the burden to prove that the termination of employment is a misconduct defined by individual states laws. [85] However, if the employee quit their job, then they must prove that their voluntary separation must be good cause.\nGenerally, the worker must be unemployed through no fault of his/her own although workers often file for benefits they are not entitled to; when the employer demonstrates that the unemployed person quit or was fired for cause the worker is required to pay back the benefits they received. The unemployed person must also meet state requirements for wages earned or time worked during an established period of time (referred to as a \u201cbase period\u201d) to be eligible for benefits. In most states, the base period is usually the first four out of the last five completed calendar quarters prior to the time that the claim is filed. [86] Unemployment benefits are based on reported covered quarterly earnings. The amount of earnings and the number of quarters worked are used to determine the length and value of the unemployment benefit. The average weekly in 2010 payment was $293. [87]\nAs a result of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act passed in February 2009, many unemployed people receive up to 99 weeks of unemployment benefits; this may depend on State legislation. Before the passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the maximum number of weeks allowed was 26.\nIt generally takes two weeks for benefit payments to begin, the first being a \"waiting week\", which is not reimbursed, and the second being the time lag between eligibility for the program and the first benefit actually being paid.\nTo begin a claim, the unemployed worker must apply for benefits through a state unemployment agency. [86] In certain instances, the employer initiates the process. Generally, the certification includes the affected person affirming that they are \"able and available for work\", the amount of any part-time earnings they may have had, and whether they are actively seeking work. These certifications are usually accomplished either over the Internet or via an interactive voice response telephone call, but in a few states may be by mail. After receiving an application, the state will notify the individual if they qualify and the rate they will receive every week. The state will also review the reason for separation from employment. Many states require the individual to periodically certify that the conditions of the benefits are still met.\nDisqualification/Appeals\nIf a worker's reason for separation from their last job is due to some reason other than a \"lack of work,\" a determination will be made about whether they are eligible for benefits. Generally, all determinations of eligibility for benefits are made by the appropriate State under its law or applicable federal laws. If a worker is disqualified or denied benefits, they have the right to file an appeal within an established time-frame. The State will advise a worker of his or her appeal rights. An employer may also appeal a determination if they do not agree with the State's determination regarding the employee's eligibility. [86] If the worker's claim is denied, then they have the right to appeal. If the worker was fired for misconduct, then the employer has the burden to prove substantially that the termination of employment is a misconduct defined by individual states laws. [85] However, if the employee quit their job, then they must prove that their voluntary separation must be good cause. Success rate of unemployment appeals is two-thirds, or 67% of the time for the most claimants. [88] [89] In the State of Oklahoma, claimants generally win 51.5% of the time in misconduct cases. [90]\nEach Thursday, the Department of Labor issues the Unemployment Insurance Weekly Claims Report. [91] Its headline number is the seasonally adjusted estimate for the initial claims for unemployment for the previous week in the United States. This statistic, because it is published weekly, is depended on as a current indicator of the labor market and the economy generally.\nIn 2016, the number of people on unemployment benefits fell to around 1.74 the lowest in the last 4 decades. [92]\nUnemployment insurance outlook\nTwice a year, the Office of Management and Budget delivers an economic assessment of the unemployment insurance program as it relates to budgetary issues. [93] As it relates to the FY 2012 budget, the OMB reports that the insured unemployment rate (IUR) is projected to average 3.6% in both FY 2011 and in FY 2012. State unemployment regular benefit outlays are estimated at $61 billion in FY 2011 and $64.3 billion in FY 2012, down somewhat from Midsession estimates. [93] Outlays from state trust fund accounts are projected to exceed revenues and interest income by $16.0 billion in FY 2011 and $15.1 billion in FY 2012. [93] State trust fund account balances, net of loans, are projected to continue to fall, from -$27.4 billion at the end of FY 2010 to -$62.7 billion at the end of FY 2013, before starting to grow again. [93]\nNet balances are not projected to become positive again until well beyond FY 2016. Up to 40 states are projected to continue borrowing heavily from the Federal Unemployment Account (FUA) over the next few years. [93] The aggregate loan balance is projected to increase from $40.2 billion at the end of FY 2010 to a peak end-of-year balance of $68.3 billion in FY 2013. Due to the high volume of state loans and increased EB payments, FUA and EUCA are projected to borrow $26.7 billion from the general fund in FY 2011 and an additional $19.4 billion in FY 2012, with neither account projected to return to a net positive balance before 2016. [93] The general fund advances must be repaid with interest. [93]\nEconomic rationale and issues\nThe economic argument for unemployment insurance comes from the principle of adverse selection. One common criticism of unemployment insurance is that it induces moral hazard, the fact that unemployment insurance lowers on-the-job effort and reduces job-search effort.\nAdverse selection refers to the fact that \u201cworkers who have the highest probability of becoming unemployed have the highest demand for unemployment insurance.\u201d [94] Adverse selection causes profit maximizing private insurance agencies to set high premiums for the insurance because there is a high likelihood they will have to make payments to the policyholder. High premiums work to exclude many individuals who otherwise might purchase the insurance. \u201cA compulsory government program avoids the adverse selection problem. Hence, government provision of UI has the potential to increase efficiency. However, government provision does not eliminate moral hazard.\u201d [94]\n\u201cAt the same time, those workers who managed to obtain insurance might experience more unemployment otherwise would have been the case.\u201d [94] The private insurance company would have to determine whether the employee is unemployed through no fault of their own, which is difficult to determine. Incorrect determinations could result in the payout of significant amounts for fraudulent claims or alternately failure to pay legitimate claims. This leads to the rationale that if government could solve either problem that government intervention would increase efficiency.\nUnemployment insurance effect on unemployment\nIn the Great Recession, the \u201cmoral hazard\u201d issue of whether unemployment insurance\u2014and specifically extending benefits past the maximum 99 weeks\u2014significantly encourages unemployment by discouraging workers from finding and taking jobs was expressed by Republican legislators. Conservative economist Robert Barro found that benefits raised the unemployment rate 2%. [95] [96] Disagreeing with Barro's study were Berkeley economist Jesse Rothstein, who found the \u201cvast majority\u201d of unemployment was due to \u201cdemand shocks\u201d not \u201c[unemployment insurance]-induced supply reductions.\u201d [96] [97] A study by Rothstein of extensions of unemployment insurance to 99 weeks during the Great Recession to test the hypothesis that unemployment insurance discourages people from seeking jobs found the overall effect of UI on unemployment was to raise it by no more than one-tenth of one percent. [98] [99]\nA November 2011 report by the Congressional Budget Office found that even if unemployment benefits convince some unemployed to ignore job openings, these openings were quickly filled by new entrants into the labor market. [96] [100] A survey of studies on unemployment insurance's effect on employment by the Political Economy Research Institute found that unemployed who collected benefits did not find themselves out of work longer than those who didn\u2019t have unemployment benefits; and that unemployed workers did not search for work more or reduce their wage expectations once their benefits ran out. [96] [101]\nOne concern over unemployment insurance increasing unemployment is based on experience rating benefit uses which can sometimes be imperfect. That is, the cost to the employer in increased taxes is less than the benefits that would be paid to the employee upon layoff. The firm in this instance believes that it is more cost effective to lay off the employee, causing more unemployment than under perfect experience rating. [94]\nUnemployment insurance effect on employment\nAn alternative rationale for unemployment insurance is that it may allow for improving the quality of matches between workers and firms. Marimon and Zilibotti argued that although a more generous unemployment benefit system may indeed increase the unemployment rate, it may also help improve the average match quality. [102] A similar point is made by Mazur who analyzed the welfare and inequality effects of a policy reform giving entitlement for unemployment insurance to quitters. [103] Arash Nekoei and Andrea Weber present empirical evidence from Austria that extending unemployment benefit duration raises wages by improving reemployment firm quality. [104] Similarly, Tatsiramos studied data from European countries and found that although unemployment insurance does increase unemployment duration, the duration of subsequent employment tends to be longer (suggesting better match quality). [105]\nAn alternative to unemployment insurance intended to reduce the moral hazard costs would introduce mandated individual saving accounts for workers to draw on after being laid off. The plan, by Martin Feldstein would pay any positive account balance at retirement to the employee. [106]\nEffect on state budgets\nAnother issue with unemployment insurance relates to its effects on state budgets. During recessionary time periods, the number of unemployed rises and they begin to draw benefits from the program. The longer the recession lasts, depending on the state's starting UI program balance, the quicker the state begins to run out of funds. The recession that began in December 2007 and ended in June 2009 has significantly impacted state budgets. According to The Council of State Governments, by 18 March 2011, 32 states plus the Virgin Islands had borrowed nearly $45.7 billion. The Labor Department estimates by the fourth quarter of 2013, as many as 40 states may need to borrow more than $90 billion to fund their unemployment programs and it will take a decade or more to pay off the debt. [107]\nPossible policy options for states to shore up the unemployment insurance funds include lowering benefits for recipients and/or raising taxes on businesses. Kentucky took the approach of raising taxes and lowering benefits to attempt to balance its unemployment insurance program. Starting in 2010, a claimant's weekly benefits will decrease from 68% to 62% and the taxable wage base will increase from $8,000 to $12,000, over a ten-year period. These moves are estimated to save the state over $450 million. [108]\nTaxing or exempting benefits\nThe argument for taxation of social welfare benefits is that they result in a realized gain for a taxpayer. The argument against taxation is that the benefits are generally less than the federal poverty level.\nUnemployment compensation has been taxable by the federal government since 1987. [109] Code Section 85 deemed unemployment compensation included in gross income. [110] Federal taxes are not withheld from unemployment compensation at the time of payment unless requested by the recipient using Form W-4V. [109] [111] In 2003, Rep. Philip English introduced legislation to repeal the taxation of unemployment compensation, but the legislation did not advance past committee. [109] [112] Most states with income tax consider unemployment compensation to be taxable. [109] Prior to 1987, unemployment compensation amounts were excluded from federal gross income. [113] For the US Federal tax year of 2009, as a result of the signing of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 signed by Barack Obama on 17 February 2009 the first $2,400 worth of unemployment income received during the 'tax year' of 2009 will be exempted from being considered as taxable income on the Federal level, when American taxpayers file their 2009 IRS tax return paperwork in early 2010.\nJob sharing / short-time working\nJob sharing or work sharing and short time or short-time working refer to situations or systems in which employees agree to or are forced to accept a reduction in working time and pay. These can be based on individual agreements or on government programs in many countries that try to prevent unemployment. In these, employers have the option of reducing work hours to part-time for many employees instead of laying off some of them and retaining only full-time workers. For example, employees in 18 states of the United States can then receive unemployment payments for the hours they are no longer working. [114]\nPayment through prepaid debit cards\nIn 2013, it was reported that most U.S. states deliver unemployment benefits to recipients who do not have a bank account through a prepaid debit card. [115] The federal government uses the Direct Express Debit Mastercard prepaid debit card offered by Mastercard and Comerica Bank to give some federal assistance payments to people who do not have bank accounts. Many states have similar programs for unemployment payments and other assistance.\nInternational Labour Convention\nInternational Labour Organization has adopted the Employment Promotion and Protection against Unemployment Convention, 1988 for promotion of employment against unemployment and social security including unemployment benefit.\n^ The Cabinet Papers 1915-1982: National Health Insurance Act 1911.

        "raw_content": "\"For several years I suffered from severe leg pain when standing or walking for more than 20 or 30 minutes. The pain subsided almost immediately after sitting down. In April 2007, my internist referred me to a neurologist at Weill Cornell who diagnosed lumbar spinal stenosis, which was confirmed through an MRI. After two months of physical therapy and medication, my symptoms had not improved. I was referred to the Chief of Spinal Surgery at Weill Cornell, Roger H\u00e4rtl, MD. Dr. H\u00e4rtl reviewed my records and indicated that I was a good candidate for surgery.\n\"Dr. H\u00e4rtl said that in general, a laminectomy procedure is especially effective in alleviating the leg symptoms associated with lumbar spinal stenosis, with about 70 to 80 percent of patients reporting significant improvement in their function (ability to perform normal daily activities) and markedly reduced level of pain and discomfort. I hesitated initially, because of extensive published data I had read questioning the benefits of back surgery. However, in November 2007, I visited Dr. H\u00e4rtl for a second time and told him that I was ready to have the surgery.\n\"On December 6, 2007, Dr. H\u00e4rtl inserted two titanium rods between vertebrae numbers 4 and 5, in addition to the laminectomy. This was necessary because of my misaligned vertebrae. I am happy to report that since my recovery, I have actually been completely pain free, which from a statistical standpoint puts me in an even better range than the 70 to 80 percent of patients.\"\n\u2039 Patient Story: Return to Africa A \"Walking Time Bomb,\" Now Back on Track \u203a",

        "raw_content": "Home > Uncategorized > Dogs And Renting A Place\nWhen looking for a place to rent for you and your dog, you will find the apartments available are few and far between. Many property owners do not want to rent their places to dog owners. The biggest reason is that they had bad experiences in the past, or they simply do not like pets. If this is the situation, you may have a difficult time locating a place where your dog will be welcomed. If you do find a place that will allow renting to you and your dog, you will most likely have to pay an extra pet deposit fee or possibly a higher monthly rent.\nIf you are renting with a dog, and decide after a while, you do not want a dog anymore or your dog passes, you want to make certain that there is a clause in your rental agreement that will lower the rent if you are paying extra or that the property owner can inspect your place and return the pet deposit you paid when you got the place. The property owner and you as the renter should agree to this before signing the rental agreement. You do not want to have your money held for a dog you no longer have in the apartment.\nRenting with a dog or dogs is sometimes the hardest thing to accomplish. You may find that some apartments or houses that allow dogs are not as nice as a place that does not allow dogs. You should always look at several places rather than just a few before making a final decision. Another issue with renting with a dog is that you may find the apartment or house that previously had a dog creates bad behavior from your dog. There is one good way to find out if there are dog urine spots that could attract your pets to do the same thing.\nIf you are a property owner, you can do this before returning a pet deposit as well. You will need a black light which you can purchase online. Take the black light and go over the walls, carpets, and flooring to see if there is any evidence of dog urine. This works well for finding out if there could be potential problems for your dog. If you do find any areas with urine, you should let the property owner know before your dog enters the rental unit.\nYou will find that most property owners will not accept dogs. There are a few however, that will but you need to know exactly how to present your dog. It is a good idea to explain the dog\u2019s age, how long you have owned the dog, and if it has any behavior problems. Property owners will also look at the kind of dog you have because many homeowner policies will not provide insurance if you have a particular breed of dog. This can be the deciding factor for property owners even if they allow any pets. Again, you have to learn how to present your dog in a way that is positive and not negative.",

It was sad to see everything rusting to the ground but I was glad to look at it. It was part of my two stop trip to there and the B & O Railroad Museum.

        "raw_content": "Home News Changes to Workplace Injury Reporting\nChanges to Workplace Injury Reporting\nChanges to the way in which employers must report injuries from accidents at work will come into force from April 2012, reports commercial insurance specialists Alan & Thomas.\nCurrently, injuries that lead to a worker being incapacitated for more than three days have to be reported to the Health & Safety Executive (HSE). However, as from 6 April, subject to Parliamentary approval, employers will only have to report injuries that lead to seven days' absence from work.\n\"An 'over-seven-day' injury is one which is not 'major' but results in the injured person being away from work or unable to do the full range of their normal duties for more than seven days\" advises Rob Gale, director of the Dorset-based broker.\n\"When calculating 'more than seven consecutive days' the day of the accident should not be counted, only the period after it. Any days the injured person would not normally have been expected to work, such as weekends, rest days or holidays, must be included\".\nThe time in which employers have to report such injuries will also increase from 6 April and must be made within 15 days of the accident. However, where the incapacitation does not immediately follow the day of the accident, for example, due to the condition not being apparent until some time after the accident, the report should be made as soon as the injury or condition has incapacitated the worker for more than seven consecutive days.\n\"We would advise employers and those with responsibility for health and safety in organisations to still maintain a record of over three day injuries \u2013 an accident book entry will be sufficient. Having an accurate and up-to-date record of incidents and resultant injuries will play a major part should an investigation by the HSE or any claims for personal injury against the employer be initiated\".\nAs well as reporting incidents to the HSE, employers are reminded to also notify their insurance broker so that they in turn can notify the insurer.\n\"Late notification of incidents is a common cause of insurers rejecting claims and in many cases, delays in notification can result in missed opportunities which can have a significant influence in terms of reducing the final cost of the claim\" concludes Rob.\nAlan & Thomas are leading insurance specialists based in Poole, Gillingham and Frome providing insurance solutions for businesses, individuals, charities and organisations. As well as being a Top 100 broker in the UK, they have been awarded the prestigious title of Chartered Insurance Broker by the Chartered Insurance Institute \u2013 an accolade awarded to only ninety two brokers nationwide.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home > Children's Health > Infants (0 to 1) > measles\nred measles, rubeola, morbilli\nMeasles is a viral infection of the respiratory tract and the skin. It is one of the most contagious diseases known. Measles was once very common, but a vaccine has made it much more rare.\nMeasles is spread by direct contact with a person who has measles. It is spread by contaminated droplets that are breathed or coughed into the air from the contagious person.\nThe symptoms of measles include:\nred eyes and sensitivity to light\ntiny white spots in the mouth and throat, called Koplik's spots\nreddish rash on the forehead and ears that spreads to the body\nMeasles is caused by the rubeola virus. People who live in crowded or unsanitary conditions are more likely to get measles.\nChildren should be immunized against measles with an MMR vaccine. This vaccination is a combined one for measles, mumps, and rubella. It is usually given at 1 year of age, and again at 4 to 6 years.\nIf a person who has not had the vaccine is exposed to measles, a shot of gamma globulin may be given. This may prevent the disease, or at least make it less severe. Gamma globulin will protect a person from measles for 3 months.\nMeasles is diagnosed when Koplik's spots are seen. A blood test, known as an antibody titer, can also detect the measles virus. Antibodies appear within 3 days after the rash begins.\nPossible complications of measles are:\near infections such as acute otitis media\nchest infections, such as pleuritis\nmeningitis, which is inflammation of the linings of the spinal cord\nencephalitis, which is inflammation of the linings of the brain\nMeasles is very contagious. If a person has not had measles, and has not had the MMR vaccine, contact with the infected person should be avoided during the contagious period. A person is contagious from day 11 to day 15 after exposure. Measles becomes apparent 8 to 14 days after exposure.\nTreatment of measles involves relieving symptoms by such measures as:\nvaporizers and a warm room to help reduce the cough\nacetaminophen for fever or discomfort\nplenty of oral fluids to help keep lung secretions thin\na dark room or sunglasses if the person is sensitive to light\nThe person should be isolated during the contagious period.\nAcetaminophen, as well as other medications, may cause stomach upset. Aspirin should not be given to anyone younger than 16. There is a link between the use of aspirin in children with a viral illness and Reye's syndrome. Reye's syndrome is a rare disease that involves the brain, and it has a high mortality rate.\nA person with measles should rest until the fever and the rash disappear. The individual should not go back to school or work for 7 to 10 days, or until after the fever and rash are gone.\nIt's very important to carefully isolate the person during the contagious period, so that others are not infected. It is also very important to watch for signs of secondary infection, including:\npneumonia, including shortness of breath\near infection, or otitis, which can cause ear pain\nencephalitis, or infection of the linings of the brain, and meningitis, or infection of the linings of the spinal cord.\nThese infections can cause a high fever, headache that progress to a stiff neck and back, and extreme drowsiness. Any new or worsening symptoms should be reported to the healthcare provider.\nReviewer: Eileen McLaughlin, RN, BSN",

        "raw_content": "Inside a High-Tech Brainstorming Session\nIt was a bright and sunny day in California, unseasonably warm. The staff gathered in the open atrium at the base of the stairs. It was their first day together as a full team, their first day as a real company with a headquarters.\nNone of the employees dared speak. Instead, they witnessed. The meeting was basically a conversation between the CEO and the COO - partners and founders of this promising high-tech startup.\nThe CEO and COO were male, and most of the small staff was male as well.\nAll of the employees needed their jobs.\nLet's listen in.\n\"I want to make it great,\" the CEO was saying.\n\"How great?\" said the COO.\n\"Insanely great, said the CEO. \"I want a place where ideas go to have sex.\"\n\"Wow,\" said the COO. \"That is inspiring.\"\n\"I want a company so great its ideas are testicular.\"\n\"No way,\" said the COO. \"That is unbelievable.\"\n\"That's right,\" said the CEO. \"I don't want any second-rate Ph.D.'s either. I want the best guys we can get for the job.\"\n\"Consider it done,\" said the COO. \"We'll need some brochures though, or something to get the word out.\"\n\"Make it happen then!\" said the CEO. \"Lay it out like a Playboy. Super-simple to understand, incredible value proposition, gorgeous to contemplate.\"\n\"No way,\" said the COO, admiringly. \"This plan is genius.\"\n\"That's right,\" said the CEO. \"I want to get some action going right away. I'm sick of sitting around waiting for something to happen.\"\n\"I'll get right on it,\" said the COO.\n\"So we're gonna need a brand,\" said the CEO. \"A good one. There's too many companies nipping at our heels already.\"\n\"A brand?\" said the COO. \"That's a tall order. I mean, I'll do my best and everything to find a good designer.\"\n\"You can do it, COO,\" said the CEO. \"I have every confidence in you.\"\n\"Thank you so much, CEO,\" said the COO.\n\"Just remember,\" said the CEO, \"we've got to make it killer from the very beginning. High heels, red lipstick, vavoom.\"\nAn uncomfortable pause.\n\"Alright then,\" said the COO. \"Is there anything else, before we proceed to the next order of business?\"\n*Of course, this conversation never happened. But it could have. The desirable workplace is one that goes beyond superficial expressions of diversity, and even beyond inclusion, to demonstrate intense attention to emotional intelligence, sensitivity, and empathy at work. Nobody should ever be squirming in their seat because they aren't part of the in-group, whether that group is defined by gender, class, race, ethnicity, culture, or anything else.\nCopyright 2015 Dannielle Blumenthal, Ph.D. Dr. Blumenthal is founder and president of BrandSuccess, a corporate content provider, and co-founder of the brand thought leadership portal All Things Brand.

        "raw_content": "a young mother of two, diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer immediately after giving birth to her son.\nI was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer when my little boy was 13 days old and my little girl was 16 months old. I had noticed an inverted nipple months previously but put it down to the fact that I had been pregnant while breastfeeding and so my body had gone through a lot of changes. I voiced my concern at the hospital before and after giving birth. Fortunately one of the nurses didn't give up and ensured I got an appointment at the breast centre a few days later.\nTo say the diagnosis rocked our world would be an understatement. We were in shock and petrified.\n\"There will be tough days mentally, physically and emotionally, but be kind to yourself and keep talking\" -\nIt all felt very surreal. It was definitely something that happened to other people. We couldn't believe we were holding a new born and a toddler feeling completely vulnerable and uncertain about our future. I think the worst part of it was waiting for the results. Once we knew, we had to deal with it and concentrate on the next steps \u2013 treatment.\nWe put a lot of our focus and energy on ensuring that our children had a stable and normal environment. We needed to protect them from our fear and pain. During the whole time, we did actually have a normal home life, with laughter and happiness. There were also days when I was scared that I wouldn't survive. It broke my heart to imagine my children growing up without their mum and having to deal with grief at such a young age. But we rationalised and focused on getting better; our children definitely encouraged us to do so. They kept us busy, sane and positive.\nI'm really proud of how our family got through this together. Having two children under two and dealing with the side effects of chemo was a struggle, but it was thinking about them that got us through each day. If anyone has to go through what we have I would say to them, \u2018you can do this\u2019. We are always petrified of the \u2018C\u2019 word but with such advancement in treatment these days, it doesn't have to be the life sentence that we associate with it. You will get through this. There will be tough days mentally, physically and emotionally, but be kind to yourself and keep talking.\n\u2190 Russ's Story Sam's Story \u2192",

        "raw_content": "In celebration of Shark Week, learn about the sharks that call the Chesapeake Bay home!\nShark Week would not be complete without discussing the local sharks that can be found in the nation\u2019s largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay. Sharks are valuable members of the Chesapeake Bay food chain, and historically, 12 species have been known to inhabit the Bay\u2019s waters.\nSandbar sharks are the most common shark species in the Chesapeake Bay! They get their name from the sandy bays and estuaries where they are commonly found. Female sandbar sharks give birth to anywhere from one to 14 pups per litter every two to three years, and the Chesapeake Bay is one of the most important nursery areas for young sandbar sharks in the western north Atlantic. This shallow water species preys primarily on bony fishes and crustaceans.\nLike sandbar sharks, sand tiger sharks typically visit the Chesapeake Bay during the summer and fall months, dwelling near the floor of the Bay and feeding primarily on bony fishes. The population of this species is vulnerable, due in part to their low reproductive rates, with females giving birth to a maximum of one or two pups every two years. They are typically larger than sandbar sharks, growing to be up to 10.5 feet long and 350 pounds!\nAnother species of shark that can be found seasonally, but sporadically, in the Chesapeake Bay is the bull shark. Bull sharks get their name from their stocky build and bullish behavior. They are known to feed on rays, bony fishes and other species of sharks. This species can live in a wide range of salinities, including fresh water.\nAll three shark species found in the Bay can be identified by distinct physical characteristics\u2014sandbar sharks are identifiable by their first dorsal fin, which is significantly larger than their second dorsal fin. Sand tiger sharks stand out because they swim with their mouths agape, showing their long, slender teeth and pointy snout, and bull sharks can be identified by their short, rounded snout, small eyes and robust appearance.\nIn honor of Shark Week, Ink Dwell is launching their shark-inspired line of prints, cards and more. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the National Aquarium\u2019s mission! Take a look at their limited edition items here!\nFounded in 2012 by artist Jane Kim and journalist Thayer Walker, Ink Dwell studio makes art that inspires people to love and protect the natural world. Merging classical techniques of science illustration with modern fine art, we create public and private commissions, fine art, illustrations, and exhibitions, including the mural in Living Seashore!\nshark-week, shark-alley, animals, sandbar-shark, sand-tiger-shark",

        "raw_content": "JAKOB BRO, THOMAS MORGAN, JOEY BARON \u2013 STREAMS / ECM 2499\nThere is no hurry to this music, but there is great depth. Absence is as powerful as presence for Bro; each phrase is perfectly plucked from the ether.\nJon Carvell, London Jazz News\nOn his second leader album for ECM \u2013 following on from the prizewinning Gefion - Danish guitarist Jakob Bro continues to refine his trio project, with its emphases on melody, sound, space, layered textures and interaction. The rapport between Bro and bassist Thomas Morgan (Bro calls him \u201cmy musical soul mate\u201d) has become something extraordinary, as guitarist and bassist develop improvisational ideas in the moment. There\u2019s an historical aptness, too, in the choice of Joey Baron as the band\u2019s new drummer, for Bro first encountered Morgan when the bassist was playing in Baron\u2019s band a decade ago.\n\u201cI\u2019ve always seen music as a whole,\u201d says Jakob Bro, \u201cnot as an outlet for me to display guitaristic things. It\u2019s important for me that everybody in the group has an equal responsibility in the making of the music. We\u2019ve played a lot now, and the pieces keep changing. I enjoy setting up moods and textures for us to work on, and to explore together, but I don\u2019t insist on any specific directions. I have no fixed expectations of where the trio music should go, and I want Joey and Thomas to trust their ears and pursue the directions it seems to be suggesting. For me this is the most exciting aspect of the project. I love playing with this band, because new things are happening in the music all the time. The music wants to go in its own direction. It\u2019s our job to follow it. In a way, that\u2019s what the album title, Streams, is indicating.\u201d\nStreams was recorded at Studios La Buissonne in the South of France in November 2015, and produced by Manfred Eicher. The recording features five new Bro pieces: \u201cOpal\u201d, \u201cFull Moon Europa\u201d, \u201cShell Pink\u201d, \u201cSisimiut\u201d, and \u201cHeroines\u201d which is heard in both a trio version and a touching solo version. \u201cGefion had also included a solo guitar piece, so we were continuing that tradition. I hadn\u2019t prepared a solo arrangement: the idea came up in the studio. Manfred said \u2018Just play the melody, then stop.\u2019 So I followed his advice. \u201c\nThe open group improvisation, \u201cPM Dream\u201d is dedicated to the late Paul Motian. Jakob\u2019s approach to melody in general acknowledges the influence of Motian, and both Bro and Morgan played at different times in Paul\u2019s ensembles.\n\u201c\u2018PM Dream\u2019 was a very spontaneous piece,\u201d Bro recalls. \u201cWe basically made the album in one day. At one point we were discussing whether to go into the control room and listen to some takes and Joey said, \u2018It feels so good to play right now, let\u2019s keep going and see what we get.\u2019 It really felt like a dream space to be in, and \u2018PM Dream\u2019 came out of that.\u2019\u201d\nThroughout Streams, Joey Baron dives into the music\u2019s detail with obvious pleasure. He takes over, in the trio, from another drumming great, Jon Christensen, who played on Gefion. (Jakob Bro\u2019s association with Christensen, meanwhile, now continues in a new project with trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg; an ECM album is due in 2017). Bro has a lot of praise for both drummers. \u201cJon\u2019s approach in the trio could be very unpredictable, extreme and mysterious and I loved that. But the creative way in which Joey plays opens up more room for me somehow, and as a group we\u2019ve been working more on ideas based around different time feelings as well as steady pulses.\u201d",

Unilever\u2019s portfolio includes some of the world\u2019s best known and most loved brands.\nToday, Unilever still believes that success means acting with \u2018the highest standards of corporate behavior towards its employees, consumers and the societies and world in which we live\u2019.

All data\u2019s and information are collected from secondary sources.\nThe term-paper was about the changes of the financial condition of the company, but as the company is not listed with Dhaka Stock Exchange, proper financial data has not been found. I could not get remarkable information related my topic. Even no article was received in that way from Internet.\nAnalysis of Unilever Bangladesh:\nIntroducing Unilever:\n150 million times a day, someone somewhere chooses a Unilever product. From feeding your family to keeping your home clean and fresh, our brands are part of everyday life.\nWith 400 brands spanning 14 categories of home, personal care and foods products, no other company touches so many people\u2019s lives in so many different ways.\nIts brand portfolio has made us leaders in every field in which we work.

We invest \u20ac1 billion every year in cutting edge research and development, and have five laboratories around the world that explore new thinking and techniques to help develop our products.\nConsumer research plays a vital role in our brands\u2019 development. We\u2019re constantly developing new products and developing tried and tested brands to meet changing tastes, lifestyles and expectations. And our strong roots in local markets also mean we can respond to consumers at a local level.\nBy helping improve people\u2019s diets and daily lives, we can help them keep healthier for longer, look good and give their children the best start in life.\nWe also believe that the very business of conducting business in a responsible way has a positive social impact. We create and share wealth, invest in local economies and develop people\u2019s skills \u2013 both inside our organization and in the communities around us.\nToday Unilever employs 223 000 people in 100 countries worldwide, and supports the jobs of many thousands of distributors, contractors and suppliers.\nHeath & personal care:\nFirst launched in France in 1983, our leading male grooming brand, Axe, now gives guys the edge in the mating game in over 60 countries\nOur oral care brands Mentadent, Peposodent and Signal have teamed up with the world\u2019s largest dental federation, the FDI, which represents over 750,000 dentists around the world\nLux became the first mass-marketed soap when it launched in 1924.

People meets everyday needs for nutrition, hygiene and personal care with brands that help people look good, feel good and get more out of life.\nVitality is at the heart of everything people do. It\u2019s in Unilever\u2019s brands, people and unilateral values.\nVitality means different things to different people. Some see it as energy, others view it more broadly as a healthy state of body and mind of alive.\nWhatever their personal definition, millions of people around the world use unilever\u2019s products daily to add Vitality to their lives \u2013 whether that\u2019s through feeling great because they\u2019ve got shiny hair and a brilliant smile, keeping their homes fresh and clean, or by enjoying a great cup of tea, satisfying meal or healthy snack.\nEver since the 19th Century when William Hesketh Lever stated that the company\u2019s mission was \u201cto make cleanliness commonplace; to lessen work for women; to foster health and contribute to personal attractiveness, that life may be more enjoyable and rewarding for the people who use our products,\u201d Vitality has been at the heart of our business.\nVitality defines what we stand for: our values, what makes us different, and how we contribute to society. It\u2019s the common thread that links our brands and it\u2019s central to the unique way we operate around the world.\nUnilever\u2019s Vitality mission commits us to growing our business by addressing health and nutrition issues. We focus on priorities including children and family nutrition, cardiovascular health and weight management.\nInside & out:\nUnilever\u2019s culture also embodies Vitality. Adding Vitality of life requires the highest standards of behavior towards everyone we work with, the communities we touch and the environments on which we have an impact.\nThe growing demand for more Vitality in life provides us with a huge opportunity for growth. The way Unilever works and the products the staff of the unilever has developed are shaped by consumer trends, along with the need to help raise health and hygiene standards in both the developing and industrialized regions of the world.\nHistory of Unilever:\nUnilever\u2019s corporate mission \u2013 to add vitality to life \u2013 shows how clearly the business understands 21st century-consumers and their lives. But the spirit of this mission forms a thread that runs throughout its history.\nIn the 1890s, William Hesketh Lever, founder of Lever Bros, wrote down his ideas for Sunlight Soap \u2013 his revolutionary new product that helped popularizes cleanliness and hygiene in Victorian England. It was \u2018to make cleanliness commonplace; to lessen work for women; to foster health and contribute to personal attractiveness, that life may be more enjoyable and rewarding for the people who use unilever\u2019s products\u2019.\nThis was long before the phrase \u2018Corporate Mission\u2019 had been invented, but these ideas have stayed at the heart of unilever\u2019s business. Even if their language \u2013 and the notion of only women doing housework \u2013 has become outdated.\nIn a history that now crosses three centuries, Unilever\u2019s success has been influenced by the major events of the day \u2013 economic boom, depression, world wars, changing consumer lifestyles and advances in technology. And throughout unilever has been created products that help people get more out of life \u2013 cutting the time spent on household chores, improving nutrition, enabling people to enjoy food and take care of their homes, their clothes and themselves.\nSocial Responsibility for an organization:\nSocial Responsibility of Unilever Bangladesh Ltd:\nThe Unilever Bangladesh Ltd. is a well known business organization in our country. The business of Unilever is very old in Bangladesh. It has many products in local and world market. They have also good relationship with Bangladeshi general people by their social work. They are trying to involve many types of social responsibility. Like as:\nClose Up 1 Contest.\nFloating hospital\nBalancing profit with corporate behaviors.\nHigher education scholarship.\nClose up 1 Contest:\nIn this year close up 1 is a well known contesting program in NTV. First it was arranged by Unilever in 2005. Now it is the second time to find out the best new singer in 2006. The contesters will be 15 to 30 years old. Nolok Babu was the champion of close up 1 2005. For the contest of 2006 registration is running. The media partner of this contest in NTV, web partner is Bangladesh info.com and call centre partner is City cell.\nThis contest is helpful to find out our national assets. So it is too good social work to find out our assets. At last we can say that it is very helpful to our society. So we should help them and try to welcome this kind of social work.\nFloating hospital:\nAklima now has one of the biggest smiles in her class. She wasn\u2019t always so cheerful. Born with a cleft lip, Aklima used to feel self-conscious and shy when smiling in front of her classmates.\nThat was before the LifebuoyFriendshipHospital pulled up on her stretch of remote sandbank on the River Brahmaptura in Bangladesh. Aklima is one of over 172 000 people to have been helped by the Unilever-sponsored hospital ship since it set sail four years ago.\n\u201cNone of my friends calls me \u2018cleft lip\u2019 anymore after my operation at the LifebuoyFriendshipHospital,\u201d she beams.\nBalancing profit with corporate behaviors:\nIn the late 19th century the businesses that would later become Unilever were among the most philanthropic of their time. They set up projects to improve the lot of their workers and created products with a positive social impact, making hygiene and personal care commonplace and improving nutrition through adding vitamins to foods that were already daily staples.\nToday, Unilever still believes that success means acting with \u2018the highest standards of corporate behavior towards our employees, consumers and the societies and world in which we live\u2019. Over the years we\u2019ve launched or participated in an ever-growing range of initiatives to source sustainable supplies of raw materials, protect environments, support local communities and much more.\nThrough this timeline you\u2019ll see how our brand portfolio has evolved. At the beginning of the 21st century, our Path to Growth strategy focused us on global high-potential brands and our Vitality mission is taking us into a new phase of development. More than ever, our brands are helping people \u2018feel good, look good and get more out of life\u2019 \u2013 a sentiment close to Lord Leverhulme\u2019s heart over a hundred years ago.\nPromoting equal opportunities:\nFaria Lara Foundation is a voluntary organization working in the remote village of Halta Dawatala in Bamna Upozila, Barguna District, in the south of the country. FAL Foundation came forward to work with this organization to assist semi-urban female students to acquire spoken/written English and basic Computer skills after their SSC Exam and help them to compete with their urban peers.\nThree month training programmer:\nIn April 2005, UBL Chairman Sanjiv Mehta officially handed over a cheque of Taka 5 Lakh and 10 computers to Selina Hossain, Executive Director of the Faria Lara Foundation. Under this project 40 female SSC students from 16 secondary institutions in the district went through a three-month training program on basic computer skills, spoken and written English. The courses were conducted by Certified IT professionals and English language professors. The effectiveness of the course was evaluated by a final exam conducted by Adcomm, UBL\u2019s agency for executing the various projects related to FAL Foundation.\nEducation for all:\nWorking with SSKS:\nUnilever came forward to support an institution that provides free primary education to children of lowest income families. There exist some institutions that provide education to these hapless children and one such organization is Shathee Samaj Kalyan Samity (SSKS), an NGO working for the slum residents in the city\u2019s posh residential area- Banani.\nBesides entrepreneurial training and other activities, SSKS runs a free evening school for children residing in slums and was funded by an international NGO thus far. Towards the end of 2004, the supporting organization wrapped up its activities from Bangladesh which left SSKS floundering for funds.\nWith Education as one of UBL\u2019s primary focus in CSR, UBL felt that it would be a shame to see such a wonderful initiative, providing education to over 300 underprivileged children, close down.\nIn January 2005, Unilever Bangladesh initiated the sponsorship of the school\u2019 major expenses. The sponsorship would help to cover salaries for the teachers and staff, uniforms and books for the students, and other administrative outflows\nRewarding talent :\nFair and Lovely Foundation undertook many initiatives to encourage women to become empowered with skills for economic independence in life and self fulfillment. The scholarship program was one such initiative that supported the dreams of talented women from economically disadvantaged families.\nBringing out the best:\nIn the scholarship program FAL Foundation provided a scholarship worth Taka 25,000 to 200 female students (who have passed their HSC Exams in 2003) to pursue 4 year under-graduate studies in the fields of Arts, Commerce, Science , Engineering, Higher Agro\u2013Science, and Medicine. More than 2000 applications were received.\nAfter a rigorous need and merit assessment and a final interview conducted by renowned professionals from various fields, the final 200 were selected and awarded at a grand event at Hotel Sheraton in Dhaka in June. The scholarships are disbursed in installments following submission of academic records showing good performance every year by each awardee.\nAbout Unilever:\nIn this section I can find out how the business is organized and details of our corporate strategy and Vitality mission.\nUnilever\u2019s new organization provides single point accountability and has fewer management layers to deliver faster decisions and faster execution.\nUnilever challenges:\nHere are a few examples of the everyday challenges we face. They\u2019re why we need highly creative people who want to make a difference and work with some truly exceptional brands.\nToothpaste tubes into tables:\nAt Unilever, we know that visionaries are as valuable as magicians. If you could look at the waste from a toothpaste factory in Brazil and see an opportunity to make chairs, tables, floor tiles and even roofing sheets, you might fit right in (99% of all solid waste generated at the factory is re-cycled).\nA crocodile in the sump:\nWhen the manager of our Ponds skincare plant in Central Africa got to work one morning, he found a rather large problem with the drains: a crocodile in the sump, no less. But he saved the day (and the crocodile) and got the plant running again. Then again, we expect our people to rise to any challenge \u2013 even if they\u2019re not all as scary as this one.\nCould you solve a nation\u2019s problem by thinking very small? Iodine deficiency in India is serious, particularly among children, as it is detrimental to their development. Our solution was a small but clever one: refined iodized salt sold in small, affordable sachets that would not last long enough to degrade in the sun.\nYellowstone Park:\nWe\u2019re looking for people who believe this is the best place to dump four million plastic detergent bottles.\nStriving to be number one:\nWhen your business is striving to be number one, you need people who can\u2019t bear coming second.\nEgg yolks & oil:\nUnilever produces 101 new things to do with egg yolks and oil?\nDirt is good:\nWe believe \u2018dirt is good.\u2019 Not surprisingly we\u2019re looking for people who aren\u2019t afraid to get their hands dirty.\nOverview of Unilever Ltd:\nIts worldwide turnover in 2003 was \u20ac42,942 million.\nIt has employ 234,000 people in around 100 countries worldwide.\nEvery day, 150 million people choose its brands to feed their families and to clean themselves and their homes.\nOver half of its sales are generated by our Foods brands, which include Knorr, Flora/Becel, Hellmann\u2019s, Lipton, Igloo / Birdseye / Findus, Rama / Blue Band, Slim Fast, Bertolli and the ice cream \u2018heart\u2019 brand.\nIn many parts of the world it leads the home care market with brands such as Omo, Surf, Skip, CIF and Comfort.\nIts leading personal care brands include Dove, Lux, Sunsilk, Pond\u2019s, Axe/Lynx and Rexona.\nIn 2003 it spent \u20ac1,065 million on research and development \u2013 2.5% of its turnover.\nIt spent over \u20ac66 million on a wide range of community projects in 2003, equivalent to 1.5% of pre-tax profits.\nAt the end of 2003, it was buying more than half our fish from sustainable sources.\nIt has 114 manufacturing sites certified to the international environmental management standard, ISO 1401.\nUnilever today:\nThe company\u2019s brands are trusted everywhere and, by listening to the people who buy them, they\u2019ve grown into one of the world\u2019s most successful consumer goods companies. In fact, 150 million times a day, someone somewhere chooses a Unilever product.\nLook in your kitchen, or on the bathroom shelf, and you\u2019re bound to see one of our well-known brands. We create market and distribute the products that people choose to feed their families and keep themselves and their homes clean and fresh.\nPeople\u2019s lives are changing fast. As the way we all live and work evolves, our needs and tastes change too. Unilever aim to help people in their daily lives. So it keep developing new products, improving tried and tested brands and promoting better, more efficient ways of working.\nIt has a portfolio of brands that are popular across the globe \u2013 as well as regional products and local varieties of famous-name goods. This diversity comes from two of our key strengths:\nStrong roots in local markets and first-hand knowledge of the local culture.\nWorld-class business expertise applied internationally to serve consumers everywhere.\nFocusing on performance and productivity, it encourages its people to develop new ideas and put fresh approaches into practice. Hand in hand with this is a strong sense of responsibility to the communities it serves. Unilever don\u2019t only measure success in financial terms; how it achieve results is important too. It works hard to conduct its business with integrity \u2013 respecting our employees, our consumers and the environment around it.\nUnilever is one of the world\u2019s leading suppliers of fast-moving consumer goods. Here are some recent highlights from our three global divisions \u2013 Foods, home care and personal care.\nTo support its consumer\u2019s brands, it has invested tea plantation in India and Africa and palm oil plantation in Africa.\nCorporate venture activities:\nIn 2004 Unilever reviewed the purpose of its venturing activities and decided to increase the funds available for investment to \u20ac250 million and to extend the period to five years (2002-2006). These funds are invested in venturing activities to build business interests in Foods and Home and Personal Care. Up to \u20ac120 million will be invested over the five years, in two venture funds of it\u2019s own, Unilever Ventures and Unilever Technology Ventures. As at 31st December 2004 it has invested \u20ac100 million in all its ventures activities.\nIn 2004 Unilever spent \u20ac1040 million on research and development, representing 2.6% of its turnover. Its R&D groups respond to emerging consumer insights-and supply a stream of innovation.\nCorporate Research and Unilever Technology Ventures search out and identify new technology, which is fed through to the divisional R&D programs.\nFoods and HPC also use external scientists who are at the forefront of their own fields to review their R&D programs and ensure that they are at the leading edge of scientific excellence.\nIn Home Care, it continued to roll out new technologies under the Omo brand, including laundry bars optimized for great cleaning performance in Africa and Asia.\nThe Radiant brand launched new formulation to improve fabric color protection in South Africa.\nIn Personal Care, there have been important global initiatives. Dove has been freelanced with new graphics and packaging across skin, hair and deodorants. Lax launched a new range of bars, with step change in sensorial benefits, together with outstanding fragrances and new packaging. Axe deodorant in North America now offers longer-lasting fragrances, while in other regions 24-7 and the new Touch variant have been launched.\nWe have mention earlier that, due to the company is not listed with the Dhaka Stock Exchange market, so we could not produce the actual financial data of the company to find out the cost efficiency. But after collecting some economic information, our logical thinking has come out with this concept that, the company has reduced its cost tremendously during last four years. It has reduced its cost by its supply chain management and now it is become a very important department of the company. In every steps of its supply chin management it is reducing its costs, which brought high profits to the company. We can explain the fact by emphasizing its supply chain factors and the negotiations of the company with its suppliers of raw materials.\nIt is obvious that, Unilever Bangladesh has reduced its cost by its supply chain management. If we look at the inflation rate of the country from the financial year 2000 to 2004, we can easily understand why prices of the products increased. The following chat shows the inflation rate of Bangladesh.\nInflation rate of Bangladesh:\nFrom the above mention chat, we can see that inflation rate has been increased gradually. It is obvious that the price of the product in the year 2000 has increased in the year 2004. That means, suppose in the year 2000 we could buy one kilogram of rice by 15/-tk, but in the year 2004 we cannot buy the same quantity of rice with the same price. Because the value of money has devalued, which means the worth of money is not the same as before. We cannot buy same product which we used to buy with the same amount of money earlier. As the exchange rate has also been rose during last couples of years, the inflation rate is also the same. Due to inflation rate, the price of any product will increase and if the raw materials are to be brought from abroad, it will cost much more because side by side, exchange rate has also been increased.\nConsidering the above facts, the products of Unilever should have increased which would be an obvious matter. But the amazing part is that, it has kept the same price level during the last five years. As we all know, that \u2018Lux Beauty Soap\u2019 is a well known and popular product of Unilever. If we recall five year back, we will see the price of the soap was at the same price level, in which level it is still now.\nSecrete of this miraculous activity of Unilever Bangladesh Ltd is its effective supply chain management. It has managed its supply chain in such an efficient manner that it has able to keep its price level of its products at the same level throughout last five years. So, we can say that, supply chain management has put a great effect on reducing the cost of the company.\nDefinitions & Acronyms:\nIt may be defined as percentage increase in price level. According to Coeburn, inflation is a situation when too much money purchases too few goods.\nCompact Natural Gas\nOEE:\nSuggestion and Recommendation:\nIf the services more good the demand of the customers will be increasing day by day. The quality of product should be better and price should be less. As Unilever is a multinational company. It will be more developed if it opens more branches in more countries of the world.\nUnilever Bangladesh Ltd. is very popular organization of Bangladesh. They are trying to social work for Bangladeshi\u2019s people. In my opinion they are doing some important work for this society. And they will also improve in future.\nAppraisal of Customer Service of IFIC Bank\nBusiness Development Strategy in Travel on Limited\nInternship Report on Perception of Customer about Southeast Bank Loan Offering\nAssignment on Sales Force Activities of Grameen Phone\nJob Application and Cover Letter format for Nutritionist Post\nAssignment on Marketing Research\nComplaint Letter to Contractor for Breach of Contract\nDefine and Discuss on Consumer Surplus\nWorking Capital Management Analysis\nImpact of EPZ on National Economy\nAarong Products in Bangladesh\nThe Information Technology in International Business\nFinancial Statement Analysis of Berger Paint Bangladesh Ltd\nRetail Strategy of Rahimafrooz Superstores Limited\nMotorcycle Transportation Service for Reducing Traffic Jam\nLabour Act: Bangladesh 2006\nHematopoietic Stem Cell Transplants to Fight Multiple Sclerosis\nData Reconciliation and Performance Evaluation of Epyllion Textile",

        "raw_content": "Launching a man-made night light into orbit and keeping it in place might be harder than it seems.\nBy Nathaniel Scharping | Published: Friday, October 26, 2018\nJens Beste/Shutterstock\nTo step outside on a moonlit night is to see the darkness pushed back. The reflected sunlight from our natural satellite during a nearly full moon is enough to limn the nighttime landscape in silver and allow even human eyes to penetrate the gloom. But we can always do better, right? If one moon is good, surely two is even better.\nOne Chinese researcher thinks so, at least. Wu Chunfeng, head of the Tian Fu New Area Science Society, wants to use a satellite like an artificial moon, reflecting sunlight back to targeted areas of the Earth at night. The reflector would orbit above a city, providing enough illumination to replace lights on the ground with a steady glow and potentially saving on electricity costs.\nHe imagines a shiny satellite unfurling in space about 300 miles above the ground and orienting itself toward cities on the ground. One would be enough to light up around 20 square miles, he says, according to China Daily, and several working in concert could brighten up to 4,000 square miles. Wu says the first should be ready to launch in 2020, and three more in 2022, though the details of the project remain largely unknown.\nThe plan might not be all that sound, though, according to satellite experts. Based on the scant details available, in fact, the satellite would probably never work, says Ryan Russell, an associate professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Texas at Austin.\nThe biggest flaw? A satellite flying low enough to deliver that much light wouldn\u2019t be able to stay in one place.\n\u201cTheir claim for 1 LEO sat at [300 miles] must be a typo or misinformed spokesperson,\u201d Russell says in an email. \u201cThe article I read implied you could hover a satellite over a particular city, which of course is not possible.\u201d\nSatellites that stay over a fixed point on the Earth, what\u2019s called a geostationary orbit, sit much further away: about 22,000 miles. At that distance, the reflective surface would need to be massive to deliver enough light for humans to see back to Earth. At a distance of just 300 miles the moon would whip around the Earth at thousands of miles per hour, beaming its light on any one place for only a fraction of a second.\nYou could keep an artificial moon in place with rocket thrusters, says Iain Boyd, an aerospace engineering professor at the University of Michigan, but that would eat up fuel, adding to the cost and requiring constant refueling.\nA constellation of satellites circling the Earth would be necessary to keep the lights on all night, trading off reflective duties to one another as they passed by overhead. And even then, fuel is necessary to counteract the tiny atmospheric drag present even in low orbits above Earth. The International Space Station, for example, orbits at about 250 miles up and must be constantly boosted back to its orbit as it slows down due to drag.\nThe cost of launching and refueling multiple satellites would likely far outpace the savings on electricity, at least for the time being.\nThere\u2019s also the question of whether we\u2019d want a city-wide night light in the first place. Some cities across the globe are already trying to tamp down on light pollution, making their nights darker, not brighter. Excess nighttime light disrupts the activities of nocturnal animals, blocks out the stars and could even be interfering with our circadian rhythms and impacting health.\nIf we truly need better light solutions, it might be better to focus on more terrestrial options, Russell says.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a very complicated solution that affects everyone to a simple problem that affects a few. It\u2019s light pollution on steroids,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd they are lighting the entire surface, while streetlights just light the streets that need to be lit. Imagine whole generations of people living in the same urban areas never seeing the stars at night?\u201d\nThe Znamya satellite deployed.\nIf you want any more evidence that the plan might not be so sound, you need only look to Russia. Vladimir Syromyatnikov, an engineer who worked on the Soyuz-Apollo program actually tested out the concept of an artificial moon in 1994. Znamya, Russian for \u201cbanner\u201d, was a circle of aluminum-coated plastic 65 feet in diameter that was launched from the Mir space station and unfolded in space like a fan.\nThe artificial moon worked \u2014 briefly. As The New York Times reports, astronauts aboard the station could detect a faint beam of light arcing toward the ground, though observers on Earth saw only a momentary bright glimmer in the sky.\nA second test satellite ran into problems on deployment in space, and the project was abandoned. The original plan called for a fleet of the disks, each 650 feet in diameter, to provide constant illumination to the ground, though the problem of maintaining the orbits and accurately aiming the spacecraft was never functionally addressed.\nToday, when many worry that urban nights are too bright, the concept of an artificial moon seems largely unnecessary. Streetlights already provide us with adequate light, and new LED options could help cut down on electricity costs.\nA night light in space may be a moonshot too far.\n[Editor's Note: Due to an error, an earlier version of this story switched the units for miles and kilometers. The numbers have been corrected.]\nChina is launching artificial moons in urban areas",

        "raw_content": "When Your Heart is in a Million Places\nGreetings from the convent annex at the University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio, Texas. This past week, I've been living at a convent annex while working at the Karnes detention center about an hour south of here. While watching reality TV last week (Sisters and lawyers both need to decompress after a long day), Sister Bertha told me that there's one thing you must remember: to take risks & live your life. Thanks for the reminder, Sister B.\nA question I most commonly get while I am on the road is: \"Do you get lonely? Do you feel isolated?\" In fact, a new friend/work colleague here in San Antonio asked me this question last night. I paused for a moment and said: \"Sure. Absolutely.\"\nAnd then I told her that there is a difference though\u2014these two concepts of loneliness and solitude. I often revel in solitude\u2014because I am processing so much during the day (I am on week 4 of working in Texas immigration detention centers\u2014this past week, I made the shift to the Karnes Residential Facility). I've mentioned to friends that I can often withstand multiple hours in the car in total silence because of the peace and tranquility that space can give. Ahh, sweet solitude.\nOn the other hand, is its closely related feeling, loneliness. And it's true, I can experience that too. I admit after working in Dilley the first couple weeks I got to Texas, I was pretty emotionally drained. I needed some time to recover, but I also needed to make sure that I didn't go into social withdrawal. Loneliness is more of that feeling that one isn't connected to the world and people around them. And when spent too long in this particular place\u2014it can start to chip away at you. And it's definitely not good when one is working/traveling solo on the road.\nGettin' Connected\nWhen another new friend in San Antonio asked me the above question, I also mentioned that because I've moved around quite a bit in my life, and because my friends have too\u2014it has been a bit like a reunion getting to see friends from all across the country. And meet wonderful new friends, too. It's because of this that even in the toughest of work days and most somber of situations, I luckily have a space in my heart that gently tugs me to remember that there are pieces of my heart scattered all throughout this country (and world, really).\nEach friend who I have crossed paths with along the way lives on in me, somehow. Sometimes, I think of a funny memory that we've shared. Or, I think of a particularly resonant quote that someone said that sticks in my memory. And all of these interactions continue to go in and build upon themselves in whatever area I am in\u2014metropolitan San Antonio or super rural Dilley, Texas\u2014and all the other places I've been in this trip and beyond.\nIt's been a heavy 3-4 weeks here getting situated in immigration detention center work in Texas, and writing this post has helped me re-realize that anchoring myself in these friendships and connections are what will allow this work to continue in the longer-term.\nThe Spaces and Places in Between\nThe last 9 months (almost an entire gestational period\u2014woah!) have been some of the most formative in my life. I feel like I haven't had a proper amount of time to completely digest everything, but I know that will be coming up soon enough. But I have experienced a lot of America in these last 9 months: rural California in the Central Valley working with migrant farmworkers; my first exposure to immigration law with Catholic Charities in Portland, Oregon; my first and highly impactful experience working at the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma, Washington; being one of the only attorneys around for hundreds of miles in extremely rural Cut Bank, Montana; living on/near my second reservation on the Navajo Nation in the Arizonian desert; getting a view of issues on the US/Mexican border in Tucson, Arizona; helping out at DACA clinics in Santa Fe, New Mexico & hearing stories of hope; and working with Central American women and children in Dilley and Karnes City, Texas who are seeking asylum.\nIn all these spaces, and in all these places\u2014a part of these experiences and all the people I've interacted with along the way lives on in me. It's in a place where when loneliness weighs in over solitude; I remember this treasure trove of people, warmth, love, and interactions. A little piece of my heart is with these people and places I've spent time with over these last 9 months.\nAnd when your heart is in a million places, every new place feels like another potential community, and every person I meet could be a potential new friend. (Ya never know...) And it helps me to remind myself when I am chugging along during my travels that all of us, really, are connected to each other\u2014in all of these spaces and places.\nThere are luckily SO many photo memories I could share of people and places where parts of my heart are, but here is one photo from each stop I've been.\nI'll be here in San Antonio until the second week of May\u2014if you or any of your loved ones is here\u2014I'd love to connect. Much love to you all, and thanks again for hanging with me through the good & tougher times. I know the last few weeks had some heavy experiences and thoughts and I am grateful I was able to share it all with you. 'Til next time\u2014peace!\nWhen I was working in Delano, California\u2014it gave me a chance to reunite with one of my first friends I made in Los Angeles, Bintou. It was a treat to go to the coast after those 110+ degree days!\nLabor Day in Portland, Oregon. It was an amazing coincidence where a bunch of friends were visiting from out of town and made for one of the best long weekends in recent memory.\nReunited with two of my friends from UT Austin who also did the semester in DC program with me. Here we are in Seattle on a freaking beautiful fall day.\nHere I am meeting with a friend's friend's friend's mother (hi Eloise!) in Cut Bank at one of the literal few restaurants in town. It was great to see a friendly face in a 4 degrees of separation type of way!\nWith former Navajo Justice, Louise Grant, who I was privileged to work with on the Navajo Nation for a month. Her kindness made me feel right at home in a place where I previously knew no one.\nWith Ivy, my Couchsurfing host in Tucson, Arizona. This woman embodies the phrase \"the kindness of strangers.\" For a few weeks, I crashed out at Ivy's place and we had many laughs and great convos.\nWith two of my favorite Canadians who I lived with at the Santa Fe Art Institute (hi Alexis & Shar!)\u2014these two made my whole stay there. Miss you guys.\nMy first week in Dilley, Texas volunteering at the South Texas Family Residential Center. Our small but scrappy team held up and the next time I see any of these folks again, a big hug will be given.",

        "title": "What are the different types of mezzanine lenders",
        "raw_content": "Whether you have a small deal or a large deal on your hands, mezzanine lenders should be your first option when looking for growth and acquisition capital. The middle market consists of many different types of lenders from local banking sources to government entities such as Small Business Investment Companies (SBICs), public entities such as Business Development Corporations (BDCs), and independent lenders. Depending on the size of the deal, Attract Capital will find the best fit for your next opportunity. The size of the deal dictates where you will find your capital provider. Lower middle market businesses with tinier deals frequently obtain their financial funding from a local bank. However, when prospective growth or a merger/acquisition presents itself, there is a capital shortage from these smaller banking sources. That is where the larger SBICs and BDCs come in. The bigger the deal gets, the bigger the leverage multiple that you receive. Mezzanine lenders base their investment off of a multiple of your company\u2019s EBITDA, or Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. Mezzanine providers standard mezzanine debt multiple is about 3.5 times EBITDA. SBIC\u2019s usually tap out at deal sizes of $10 million. They tend also to have a regional focus for their loans. BDC\u2019s are larger pools of capital and usually start at deal sizes of $10 million. BDC\u2019s commonly provide unitranche facilities where they provide both a senior and a junior layer of debt capital.\nMezzanine is a superior form of quasi-equity capital that has structural advantages over bank loans and pricing advantages over equity. Senior debt can be a challenge to attain and opting for equity is not always a favorable alternative. Most equity providers want to own a significant chunk of the business, generally 25% or more. This makes equity an unpalatable option for most growth oriented companies. Mezzanine lenders realize your potential for long-term growth. It requires no principal payments, only interest payments, throughout the first three or four years of the loan. Furthermore, mezzanine loans mature in five to seven years. These factors help to give a company much more flexibility on how it spends the funding it receives. This new capital can be used to accelerate the development of the company or complete an acquisition or merger with another business. Mezzanine is low cost and has the structural flexibility to make it a very attractive option for a company with strong cash flows.",

As it was clear from the work done last quarter, geometry, material, and structure are terms that cannot nearly stand on their own as they are deeply intertwined in the discipline. When use or program is added as a catalyzer to the mix, architecture's life becomes complex as people engage with the order(s) embedded with its composite nature. The 412 studio places a single program into the context of a pattern I structural based studio in order to develop an initial understanding of the methods used to create and control architectural form and its attendant core elements (structure, envelope, and interior environment).\n1.0 I Course Objectives\nOne of the deep similarities between the natural and artificial worlds, of which architecture is firmly rooted in the latter, is a profound reliance on structural systems. Whether an animate process (e.g. bio-evolution) or an object governed by intelligent design (a building or product), structure is the very essence of the material life of virtually everything. Structure is by necessity a reaction to forces and stresses acting on bodies in a gravitational field and as such, it expresses much of the logic found in the formal qualities of both nature and architecture. Surfaces, skins, vectors (columns, beams, braces, webs, lattices, etc.) all participate in the array of components that make up an entire structural assembly and in various combinations, a set of systems exists to work with in the development of architectural structure and it attendant set of expressions. Indeed, structure is, whether explicitly revealed or not, a geometric language that is not only responsive to the paths of gravitational loads moving through matter, but a force which organizes the tectonic vitality and space of architecture.\nThe Building Design Studio focuses on the relation of structure to architectural design and examines different techniques of expression and form finding through the development of a multi-level, contemporary office building in Los Angeles. Basic principles of structural design will be introduced in this course and with the project's emphasis on a programmatically simple set of requirements, these basic ideas should be advanced with reasonable, if newfound expertise. Each student is required to present a clear understanding of individual design proposals within the context of other architects work and buildings. A thorough understanding the action of structure on architectural design is taught in the studio in tandem with the assistance of expert consultants. The course seeks to train students who can fundamentally control the influence of structure on their design proposals and who can present, verbally and graphically, a full understanding of structure's physical and aesthetic role in their work.",

        "raw_content": "Diplomats vs. Dips\nAs that classic song says: \u201cthe times they are a\u2019changing.\u201d First Tunisia, then Egypt and now Bahrain, Algeria, Oman, Libya and Lord knows who else. \u201cRegime change\u201d is in the air. Could it be that the days of the dictators are coming to an end?\nAmerica has never been good at \u201cregime change.\u201d Perhaps it\u2019s because we have never \u2018changed regimes\u2019 since the Revolutionary War. Whatever the reason, we can\u2019t seem to get it right as exemplified below:\n1955 Nicaragua Tacho Somoza assassinated\n1961 Dominican Rep. Rafael Trujillo assassinated\nEstimated that 50,000+ people were killed)\n1975 South Vietnam Nguyen Van Thieu exiled\n(58,245 Americans dead)\n1975 Cambodia Lon Nol exiled\n(Estimated that the Khmer Rouge killed 1.4 million people)\n1979 Iran Shah Pahlavi exiled\n1979 Nicaragua Tachito Somoza assassinated\n1986 Haiti Jean Duvalier exiled\n1997 RD Congo Mobutu Sese Seko exiled\n1998 Indonesia Suharto forced out\n2010 Tunisia Zine Ben Ali exiled\n2010 Egypt Hosni Mubarak ousted\nThe above represent the dictators America has supported to lesser and greater degrees. FDR once referred to Rafael Trujillo, dictator of the Dominican Republic, as \u201cour own son of a bitch.\u201d\nIt took me a while to figure it out, but I have now developed a failsafe way to determine which government will end up in power. Look at who the Americans are backing and then go with the other side.\nThink about it; a \u2018regime change\u2019 is a 50-50 shot. There are only 2 possibilities. Sheer odds would seem to indicate we\u2019d get lucky every once in a while. Sadly, it isn\u2019t the case.\nWhy? Because we are not getting good feedback from our troops on the ground (i.e. American Diplomats) or we\u2019re not listening to what they say because D.C. has its own agenda. Either way, America loses.\nIran calls us the \u201cGreat Satan.\u201d Other countries call us other less-than-pleasant names. Pretty good clue that we don\u2019t get this diplomacy thing. Why?\nPerhaps it\u2019s because we don\u2019t have to get it. Throughout our history, when things got rocky, we withdrew within our own borders and tuned out the rest of the world. World War I started in 1914. America didn\u2019t join until 1917. World War II started in 1939. We joined in 1941, only after being bombed by Japan. With the exceptions of Canada and Mexico, we have a continent to ourselves. Therefore, since the end of the Revolutionary War, diplomacy has not been vital to our national interests. Until roughly 1900, all our energies were expended in absorbing a continent. As a result, we pretty much do what we want, when we want and ignore the rest of the planet.\nWe can no longer afford this luxury. The world has become too small. We must now learn to share this planet with everyone else.\nAccordingly, we can no longer afford a short-term foreign policy predicated on partisan politics. We must implement a long-term foreign policy and strategy. Like our military, the State Department must become apolitical, professional, well-trained, linguistically advanced, well-equipped and totally focused on the long-term big picture. We have to stop \u2018reacting\u2019 and start \u2018proacting.\u2019\nFor example, right now if the People\u2019s Republic of Upper Slobovia doesn\u2019t like us and we don\u2019t like them, it\u2019s no big deal for them. Because we\u2019re the \u2018good guys,\u2019 they know we won\u2019t bomb them. Therefore, all they have to do is wait 4 years, a new administration will take over in D.C. and everything will change. After the Shah fell, Iran overran our embassy and took our diplomats hostage. Iran didn\u2019t like Jimmy Carter. Therefore, they waited until Ronald Reagan took office and then immediately returned our hijacked diplomats.\nIn a recent poll, we Americans decided that Ronald Reagan was our greatest president. While I very much liked Reagan, it is a sad commentary on George and Abe.\nSo, let\u2019s take a look at a couple of the American ambassadors which he appointed.\nIn 1981, Ronald Reagan appointed John Gavin, a movie actor, to be our ambassador to Mexico. On the surface, it looks pretty bogus. However, as it turned out, it wasn\u2019t such a crazy choice. John Gavin was half Mexicano, spoke fluent Spanish and got his BA at Stanford in Latin American Economic History. He served until 1986.\nAlso in 1981, Ronald Reagan appointed a fellow to be ambassador to one of our closest allies. I will not give the name or country because it did not turn out well and his host country formally asked him to be withdrawn. He was a businessman, not a diplomat. I had the opportunity to have dinner with him several times just before he assumed his post. He called a spade a spade. During dinner, he said: \u201cI supposed I\u2019ll have to be nice to the damned \u2018racial slur\u2019.\u201d Honesty and bluntness have their places, but it does not and cannot sit well on an ambassador. His sole claim to ambassadorial status was his resounding success as a fundraiser in a key electoral state.\nAs previously mentioned, John Gavin, short of a minor physical tiff with a reporter, did a creditable job. The problem was his competition. For example, his French counterpart had been ambassador and/or attached to the French Embassy/Consulate in Mexico for over 30 years and had married a Mexicana. Care to guess who\u2019s going to get the inside track?\nIt\u2019s a diplomatic war out there and we\u2019re losing it. We\u2019ve been losing it for over 50 years. We\u2019re in the bottom of the 9th, with two strikes out. It\u2019s high time we send in the A-Team, not a bunch of amateur political hacks who are playing out of their league.\nWinston Churchill was the consummate diplomat. He convinced FDR to support England and engage in war. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor; that was the excuse. The following day, 8 December 1941, America declared war on Germany and Italy. Churchill succinctly summed it up:\n\u201cYou can always count on the Americans to do the right thing, but only after they have exhausted every other possibility.\u201d\nWe can no longer afford to explore \u2018every other possibility.\u2019 We have to get it right the first time.\nWe MUST field a professional, apolitical, linguistically and socially adept, knowledgeable team of experienced diplomats to effectively and efficiently represent America\u2019s policy and beliefs. The time for amateurs is over.",

        "raw_content": "Unlocking Aviation\u2019s Benefits in Central America\nPress Release No.:\nLiberando los beneficios de la aviaci\u00f3n en Am\u00e9rica Central (pdf)\nSan Jose, Costa Rica - The International Air Transport Association (IATA) urged governments across Central America to work with industry to maximize the benefits that aviation can bring to the region. \u201cAviation supports over 859,000 jobs and makes a $17.9 billion contribution in gross value added to the combined GDP of the seven Central American countries,\u201d said Peter Cerda, IATA\u2019s Regional Vice President, The Americas.\nSpeaking at Aviation Day Central America, organized by IATA, the Airline Association of Costa Rica (ALA), and the Latin American and Caribbean Air Transport Association (ALTA), Cerda said, \u201cThe contribution of aviation is not divided equally. Some countries in the region are having greater success unlocking aviation\u2019s benefits to support economic and social development.\u201d\nIn Panama, for example, 14% of GDP and 238,000 jobs are supported by air transport and foreign arrivals, while in Belize, aviation supports fully 33% of the country\u2019s GDP. By contrast, in Guatemala, just 1% of GDP is supported by air transport, while in Honduras, the figure is 3%.\nTo help drive the benefits of aviation connectivity to new heights, countries should:\nAlign their aviation regulatory framework with global best practices\nEnsure competitive costs and efficient administration in airports through open communication with the industry\nEnsure transparency and participation of the industry in infrastructure planning and development across Central America\nUnfortunately, there are too many examples where this formula is not being followed. In Guatemala, airlines face potential tax penalties owing to the tax authority\u2019s non-recognition of the use of globally-accepted cost allocation formulas to calculate the taxable amount corresponding to the airlines\u2019 operations in Guatemala. IATA and other stakeholders are now working with the government and the industry to resolve this issue to ensure Guatemala follows globally-accepted best practices and principles related to taxation of aviation.\nEven in countries where governments understand the importance of aviation as a catalyst for growth, there are opportunities to do more. In Panama, a court awarded more than $1 million in damages in a cargo claim brought against an airline. This far exceeds the liability limits for cargo claims contained within the Montreal Convention, to which Panama has fully acceded. IATA has intervened in the case, which is currently on appeal.\nCountries also need to prepare to accommodate an additional 421 million passengers across the Latin American region by 2036. \u201cWithin Central America, San Jose (Costa Rica) and Tegucigalpa (Honduras), need new airports, while Panama Tocumen requires a third runway as well as much-needed airspace modernization that the government is undertaking. In El Salvador, the terminal at San Salvador also requires expansion,\u201d Cerda said.\n\u201cOwing to its geographic location, Central America is well-positioned to increase the economic gains that aviation can deliver. The recipe for success is not complicated but it requires all stakeholders working together in partnership. We see differing approaches to how governments approach aviation. This presents an opportunity to learn from the true success stories in the region,\u201d said Cerda.\nLearn more about the benefits of Aviation in Central America\nPerry Flint\nAssistant Director, Corporate Communications\nYou can follow us at http://twitter.com/iata for announcements, policy positions, and other useful industry information.\nMore in this category: \u00ab Aviation Drives Economic Prosperity for Mauritius Statement on Brexit negotiations and aviation \u00bb",

        "title": "Major Fourth Circuit Ruling Expands Rights of Employees to Assert Claims Under Employment Discrimination Laws | Bailey & Ehrenberg - Benefits and Employment Law Firm",
        "raw_content": "On May 7, 2015, the Fourth Circuit (which covers the states of Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina) issued a major ruling that could make it easier for plaintiffs to succeed in employment discrimination and retaliation claims. The court\u2019s en banc ruling in Boyer-Liberto v. Fontainebleau Corp. (No. 13-1473) limits two doctrines that employers had relied upon to win dismissal of lawsuits brought by employees: the \u201csingle incident\u201d doctrine and the \u201creasonable belief\u201d doctrine. In limiting the \u201creasonable belief\u201d rule, the court overruled major portions of its controversial prior decision in Jordan v. Alternative Resources Corp., 458 F.3d 332 (4th Cir. 2006).\nThe facts in Boyer-Liberto arise from the relationships between three individuals at the Clarion, an oceanfront hotel in Ocean City, MD:\nReya Boyer-Liberto, an African-American woman, began working at the Clarion in August 2010. She worked in several roles, including as a restaurant hostess, server, bartender and cocktail waitress. Liberto claimed that she had been assigned to all these different roles as part of her training.\nLeonard Berger, a white man, was the owner of the Clarion.\nTrudi Clubb, a white woman, worked as Food and Beverage Manager at the Clarion. It was not entirely clear from the record whether Clubb had the power to hire and fire employees. Liberto testified that Clubb appeared to be \u201cjust Dr. Berger\u2019s friend\u201d who was a \u201cglorified hostess.\u201d There were contrary indications in the record, however: Clubb told Liberto that she could have her fired due to her friendship with Dr. Berger, and a manager at the Clarion described Clubb as Liberto\u2019s \u201cboss\u201d in an email.\nIn September 2010, Liberto was working as a cocktail waitress at the Clarion\u2019s nightclub when one of her customers ordered a drink called the Hula Hula. The bartender in the main bar refused to make the drink, allegedly because it took too much time and other patrons would start ordering it. Liberto found another bartender in the pub bar who was willing to make the drink. Once the Hula Hula was made, Liberto wished to avoid the bartender in the main bar. So she carried it to the customer through a back path to the nightclub that ran through the restaurant kitchen.\nFor the offense of walking through the kitchen, Liberto was severely upbraided by Clubb. Clubb\u2019s prolonged tirade against Liberto allegedly culminated in Clubb threatening Liberto by saying \u201cI\u2019m going to get you\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m going to make you sorry.\u201d According to Liberto, Clubb then looked straight at Liberto and called her a \u201cporch monkey.\u201d\nThe next day, Clubb again angrily reprimanded Liberto for the incident of the previous night. Clubb allegedly threatened that she would \u201cget\u201d Liberto by \u201cgoing to Dr. Berger,\u201d and again called Liberto a \u201cporch monkey.\u201d\nLiberto called the Clarion\u2019s Human Resources director the day after and complained that Clubb racially harassed her. Although Clubb denied using the phrase \u201cporch monkey,\u201d she was given a written warning to be \u201ccautious the language or phrases she uses can not be perceived as racist or derogatory.\u201d\nLiberto\u2019s HR complaint prompted Dr. Berger, the Clarion\u2019s owner, to go to her direct supervisor, Richard Heubeck, and ask for the first time whether Liberto was a good employee. Heubeck allegedly gave a negative answer, saying that Liberto had failed in each of her job assignments. Berger then decided to fire Liberto.\nAfter exhausting her administrative remedies, Liberto brought a lawsuit under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1981 for a racially hostile work environment and retaliation. Liberto\u2019s Title VII and \u00a7 1981 were analyzed together, because the substantive standard for liability is the same under both statutes.\nThe district court dismissed both counts at the summary judgment stage. It dismissed the hostile work environment claim under the \u201csingle incident\u201d doctrine, concluding that the two incidents where Clubb allegedly used a racial epithet were not \u201csevere or pervasive\u201d enough as a matter of law to create a \u201chostile work environment\u201d based on race. Instead, they were mere \u201cisolated incidents.\u201d\nThe district court dismissed the retaliation claim under the \u201creasonable belief\u201d rule. It reasoned that Liberto lacked an objectively \u201creasonable belief\u201d that her work environment was or would become racially hostile based on the two incidents where Clubb used the term \u201cporch monkey.\u201d\nA divided panel of the Fourth Circuit affirmed. Subsequently, the full Fourth Circuit granted en banc review (review by all of the active judges of the circuit). By a vote of 12-3, the en banc court reversed the district court and reinstated all of Liberto\u2019s claims. Of the three dissenters, two dissented just from the majority\u2019s holding on the hostile work environment claims. Only Judge Niemeyer would have affirmed summary judgment as to the retaliation claims.\nIn order to prove a hostile work environment, an employee must show that he was subject to harassing, abusive or threatening behavior that was motivated by a protected trait, such as race or gender (sexual harassment is regarded as a form of gender discrimination under Title VII). In addition, the employee must show that the harassment was \u201csufficiently severe or pervasive . . . to create an objectively hostile or abusive work environment.\u201d Harris v. Forklift Sys., Inc., 510 U.S. 17, 21-22 (1993).\nIn the past, courts have required plaintiffs to meet an extremely demanding standard when the alleged harassment consisted of a \u201csingle incident.\u201d For example, in Jones v. Clinton, 990 F. Supp. 657 (E.D. Ark. 1998), the Governor of Arkansas allegedly exposed his erect penis to a state employee and asked her to \u201ckiss it.\u201d Most employees would probably consider this unwelcome behavior to be \u201csexual harassment.\u201d But the court in Jones held that it was not. In the court\u2019s view, the plaintiff\u2019s allegation, even if true, did not rise to the level of \u201csevere and pervasive\u201d conduct. At most, in the court\u2019s opinion, it was \u201cboorish and offensive.\u201d\nThe district court and Fourth Circuit panel in Liberto, relying on the \u201csingle incident\u201d case law, held that the two incidents where Clubb yelled at Liberto and called her a \u201cporch monkey\u201d did not create a racially hostile work environment. The en banc Fourth Circuit disagreed.\nIt relied first on the evidence in the record that Clubb had \u201crepeatedly and effectively\u201d communicated to Liberto that she could use her friendship with Dr. Berger to have Liberto fired. Thus, there was evidence that Clubb was Liberto\u2019s \u201csupervisor\u201d under Vance v. Ball State Univ., 133 S.Ct. 2434, 2439 (2013), and not a mere co-worker. Case law holds that a supervisor\u2019s use of a racial slur impacts the work environment more severely than a co-worker\u2019s as a factual matter. In addition, an employer can be held directly liable for a supervisor\u2019s harassment if the harassment results in a \u201ctangible employment action\u201d such as firing or demotion (and Liberto was in fact fired).\nThe en banc court relied secondly on the offensiveness of the term \u201cporch monkey.\u201d It cited several cases where a supervisor\u2019s one-time use of a racial slur was held to create a hostile work environment. Clubb\u2019s tirades, though perhaps \u201cisolated incidents,\u201d thus counted as the sort of \u201cextremely serious\u201d incidents that by themselves can create a racially hostile work environment.\nNext, the en banc court turned to the retaliation claim. To establish retaliation, an employee must show that her employer took an adverse employment action against her because she engaged in a protected activity. If an employee utilizes an employer\u2019s internal complaint procedures, as Liberto did, she is said to be \u201copposing\u201d an unlawful employment practice under Title VII\u2019s \u201copposition clause.\u201d To establish a \u201cprotected activity\u201d under the opposition clause, the employee must show that she complained of activity that either was unlawful under Title VII, or that she \u201creasonably believed\u201d to be unlawful. That \u201creasonable belief\u201d must be \u201cobjectively reasonable.\u201d\nIn the past, courts have applied this \u201cobjective\u201d standard stringently. Employer anti-discrimination policies typically prohibit a broad range of disrespectful and offensive conduct that might not be deemed by a court to violate Title VII under the \u201csingle incident\u201d rule and other legal doctrines. These judicially-created rules are little-known to non-lawyers. Thus, employees who rely on broad employer policies in reporting workplace conduct to HR are often rudely surprised when they are held to the standard of a trained employment lawyer in a subsequent court action.\nJordan v. Alternative Resources Corp., 458 F.3d 332 (4th Cir. 2006), a case relied upon by the district court and the Fourth Circuit panel majority in dismissing Liberto\u2019s retaliation claims, exemplifies this dilemma. In Jordan, the African-American plaintiff (Jordan) alleged that a co-worker had referred to the infamous Beltway snipers as \u201cblack monkeys\u201d while watching a TV news report on their capture in 2002. Jordan reported the comment to his supervisors. He was fired from his job less than a month later. Jordan sued, claiming he was fired in retaliation for his complaint of racial discrimination. The district court dismissed the lawsuit, reasoning that Jordan lacked an objectively \u201creasonable belief\u201d that his work environment was, or would become, hostile and discriminatory based on the co-worker\u2019s comment. A divided panel of the Fourth Circuit affirmed. The dissenting judge, Judge King, noted that the \u201cblack monkeys\u201d comment made by Jordan\u2019s co-worker was \u201cthe stuff of which a racially hostile work environment is made,\u201d and thus that \u201cit was entirely reasonable for Jordan to believe that, in reporting the . . . comment to his employers, he was opposing a racially hostile work environment.\u201d\nThe opinion of the en banc court in Liberto (which happened to be written by Judge King) rejected the reasoning of the Jordan majority and embraced Judge King\u2019s Jordan dissent. It noted first that employees should be encouraged to report harassment early, before they are forced to suffer a full-fledged hostile work environment. Second, it noted that, under what has become known as the Faragher/Ellerth defense, an employee is required to make an internal complaint in order to preserve her claim where her supervisor is the harasser and the employee has suffered no \u201ctangible employment action,\u201d such as firing or demotion. So too, where a co-worker (not a supervisor) is the harasser, an employee is required to prove that the company was negligent in allowing the harassment to occur in order to hold the company liable. This standard would suggest that the employee should report co-worker harassment as soon as possible. Moreover, case law holds that an employee\u2019s general fear of retaliation will not excuse a failure to report.\nUnder Jordan, the employee is thus placed in a difficult position. If the employee reports harassment before it has \u201cripened\u201d into what courts consider a full-fledged hostile work environment, the employer might fire the employee for filing a complaint without being liable for retaliation. But if the employee does not report harassment, the employer might defeat a later Title VII claim based on the Faragher/Ellerth defense or a failure to prove negligence. A plaintiff who is not an experienced attorney would be hard-pressed to figure out at exactly what point he should report harassment. The most likely outcome of this confusion is that employees will stay silent in the face of harassment. This result would be contrary to the goal of Title VII to encourage prompt efforts to identify and correct discriminatory behavior. The court in Liberto thus rejected the Jordan standard, and held that Liberto could make out a claim for retaliation.\nThe effect of Liberto is to relax two doctrines, the \u201csingle incident\u201d rule and the \u201creasonable belief\u201d rule. These doctrines had allowed courts to dismiss many discrimination and retaliation claims by requiring employees to show that they had suffered, or complained about, prolonged and egregious harassment.

        "raw_content": "Mississauga Majors Advance to Memorial Cup Semifinals 2011\nIt was a prosperous win for the Majors as their ace player, Rob Flick made the game winning goal against his arch rival Owen Sound. The Chicago Blackhawks has been watching the progress of Flick because they want to recruit him. With his heroics today to get his team to the Memorial Cup Semi-finals, I'm sure the confidence of the Blackhawks are getting higher because of Flick's performance. He's the 2010 draft pick of the Blackhawks and today he just made them proud.\nThis match was very tight from the get go. The score was tied, 1-1 in the second period. The Majors had a 5 on 3 power play and they were able to score and take the lead. The 20 year old priced recruit, Flick made the game winning goal out of that 5 on 3 scenario.\nFlick received the best player first star honor in this game while their very tough goalie, JP Anderson got the three star award after denying 21 attacks from the opposing team.\nFlick had 3 points in this game. His team, the Mississauga Majors will face either Owen Sound or Kootenay for the 2011 Memorial Cup Semi-finals. St. John is waiting in the finals. Since 1961 the Majors have not yet entered the Finals. Hopefully this year they will get to that level.\nLabels: Majors Advance to Memorial Cup Semifinals",

        "raw_content": "Post subject: Renegade Theatre\nIn the summer of 2004, a German hip hop show came from nowhere to scoop most of the press awards on the Edinburgh Fringe. Yet, as Rumble returns for an eight-week tour of the UK, it proves, once again, that a festival hit isn't necessarily forever.\nLast edited by kurinuku on Wed Aug 16, 2006 11:52 am, edited 1 time in total.\nShakespeare at street level\nThe international cast speak a mixture of languages, with a single snatch of Shakespeare at the beginning. The story is told in dance and gesture, with choreography by Lorca Renoux, a French spray-painter who danced with Pina Bausch. Dancers move on and around a scaffolding set, film projections showing different urban settings. Dmitri Jourde's Mercutio changes channels with a mobile phone, then tries to sell it to the front row.\nRumble - Renegade Theatre\nBy Lucy Wallis for The Stage\nIn what could be described as a tale of star-crossed b-boy and b-girl, the German hip-hop company, Renegade Theatre has transformed Shakespeare\u2019s Romeo and Juliet into a tale of gangland warfare.\nCombining stunt dancing, hip-hop and contemporary dance, Rumble, which had success at the 2004 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, is set on a stage complete with mobile scaffolding and screens, replicas of inner-city hi-rise flats.\nby LYNDSEY WINSHIP for the Guardian\nLuckily, they're saved from cliche by the city landscape coming alive behind them. The graffiti artists use the set as their blank walls, and cursors fly across the stage. The squiggling of cigarette smoke, the heat of a dancer's body branded into the wall in glowing colours, the dark night scrubbed away to become morning - they all appear and disappear as quickly as you can cut and paste.\nStreet Life, Aurora Nova\nPerhaps hip-hop needs conflict. ... Street Life, this year's follow-up, features no rival gangs, and it languishes without them.",

        "title": "Symbiosis: A Tale Of News And Social Media - B&T",
        "raw_content": "Symbiosis: A Tale Of News And Social Media\nIn this guest post, David Hickey (pictured below), Meltwater\u2019s director for Australia and New Zealand, explores how the news agenda has been disrupted by the rise of the social media \u2013 forming a relationship whereby one can\u2019t live without the other.\nThe dual-citizenship debate has been front and centre on #auspol these couple of months, as the saga that is the High Court hearings continue to wage on in Parliament.\nSince the resignation of deputy Greens leader Larissa Waters and former WA Senator Scott Ludlam, the eligibility of several other prominent Australian politicians has been called into question under section 44 of the Australian constitution. Perhaps the most comical slip-up is One Nation senator Malcolm Roberts, who allegedly sent emails with the subject line \u201cAm I still a British citizen?\u201d to the UK Consulate in Brisbane and British High Commission in Canberra in an attempt to check and renounce his citizenship earlier this week. You can never be too safe.\nNews media and social media users alike have been quick to provide commentary on the issue, with over 18,000 news stories and almost 27,000 social mentions since the initial news broke on 13 July 2017.\nMedia coverage of the dual citizenship in Parliament spiked at 6,741 news stories the week that Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce referred himself to the High Court and Senator Nick Xenophon confirmed his status as a UK citizen.\nThe cross-section between news and social media has become a defining feature of the way news is gathered and disseminated amongst audiences in the 21st century \u2014 the fact that something is \u2018trending\u2019 or \u2018going viral\u2019 on social media has become newsworthy in its own right, regardless of the content itself. In fact, a recent report produced by the University of Canberra found that 44 per cent of the respondents to this year\u2019s Australian survey indicated that online news and social media were their main sources of news.\nToday\u2019s journalists turn to social media for news content in the same way user-generated content picks up and responds to news produced by mainstream media. You need to look no further than Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, the latest politician to fall victim to revelations of holding dual-citizenship to a \u2018foreign power\u2019, to see this relationship at play.\nThe irony that Joyce grew up on a sheep farm in Tamworth was not lost on social media users and news outlets. When news broke of Joyce\u2019s citizenship, the internet was quick to respond, producing tonnes of user-generated content poking fun at Joyce\u2019s Kiwi roots, peaking during Sunday night\u2019s Bledisloe Cup match between Australia and New Zealand. In turn, news media not only fulfilled its role of reporting the news, but actively participated in the circulation of user-generated content (UGC):\nThe dual citizenship debate is not the first #auspol trend that has helped shape the Australian news agenda, nor will it be the last. The use of UGC in news media has become a hallmark of the relationship between news outlets and social media around the world.\nA growing number of news outlets are sourcing news as it breaks through engaging with citizen journalists, encouraging people to share photos, videos or news updates via their Facebook and Twitter platforms as events unfold. We saw this in the recent terror attacks in Barcelona and Charlottesville earlier last month, and more recently, the earthquakes in Mexico.\nThis is also evident in politicians\u2019 use of social media as a platform to reach voters directly. Through bypassing the media, who are the traditional journalistic gatekeepers, they are contributing to the symbiotic relationship that exists between news and social media.\nThe #auspol hashtag has acted as a site of political commentary and participation for Australian media and citizens. Our traditional understanding of the role of mass media as a one-way source of news is exactly that \u2013 traditional.\nThe news agenda is no longer exclusively determined by news organisations, rather has been disrupted by the rise of the social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, as well as the very content produced across the platforms themselves. And it\u2019s this that has given rise to a symbiosis relationship between news and social media that now, neither can live without.\ndavid hickey meltwater news media Social Media\nBlue 449: James Simmons To Depart, As Duncan Parfitt Promoted To MD\nZenith Sydney MD Karen Halligan To Depart\nPR Agency Hotwire Rebrands\nDo You Have Nightmares About Being Naked In Public?

        "raw_content": "Growth & Decline of Fan Cafes: B.A.P \"Trending-dol\" with increase in fan cafe members\nInformation unrelated to B.A.P has been omitted, the rest of the article is HERE.\nBefore Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and even Instagram accounts were a necessity for K-Pop groups, there were and still are fan cafes. Fan cafes are online communities where fans not only share photos and have discussion, but also become a united voice and identity in representing the fandom. You couldn\u2019t be considered a true fan unless you were a member in an official fan cafe. Even celebrities are often members of their own fan cafe to read what the fans were thinking, and their management works with the leaders of the fan cafe to organize fan events.\nHowever, with the rise in popularity for Facebook and other sites as easy and effective ways to reach a worldwide audience, agencies and fans alike are stepping away from the fan cafes. Especially with social networking sites, celebrities do not need to use a fan cafe bulletin board to communicate with their fans. More and more celebrities are opening up personal accounts to share their thoughts and photos directly to their fans, both in and out of Korea. Agencies are also using the Twitter or Facebook follower counts as a measure of their artist\u2019s worldwide popularity.\nThis change is being reflected in the fan cafes themselves. Even the most famous idol groups are seeing a decline in fan club membership, although that doesn\u2019t necessarily translate to a decline in popularity.\nThese graphs will show the difference in the number of members of the largest fan cafe for each artists. The numbers do fluctuate on a daily basis and have been rounded to the nearest thousand. Keep in mind that these numbers are for that one particular fan cafe and does not represent the number of members in all fan cafes. All these artists have several fan cafes.\n\u201cTrending-dol,\u201d idol groups [are those] who debuted after 2009 and are considered to be trendy these days. These groups have gone up in their fan cafe numbers.",

Well, make that \"today\" for everyone east of here.\nThe live cast from the Met was to say the least interesting....the Handel score was well performed, the production couldn't quite decide what century it was (but definitely not the first B.C.)...but I really enjoyed it even so. Once I got used to the fact that Caesar looked incredibly like Commander Riker from Star Trek Next Gen....\nI saw this production at Glyndebourne a few years ago - David Daniels was Caesar and Danielle de Niese as Cleopatra wearing lots of different dresses - very enjoyable and a sort of cross between high camp and Bollywood.\nYes, a large serving of Bollywood, I'd say. Egyptian, Indian -- what's the dif, right? Everyone was obviously having fun. A friend and I agreed that the right word for this production was \"cute\". And it WAS cute -- cute scenes, cute hijinks going on during the arias. I liked it.\nDavid Daniels repeated as Caesar, a role he's evidently known for, but I thought a lot of his runs were kind of muddy-sounding. Natalie Dessay took on Cleo and her many costume changes, two of which revealed a lot of skin, and I mean a LOT. But I have to say I don't remember ever hearing her sound better -- just beautiful.\nI did weary of the excessive repeats, but that's a gripe I have against all baroque operas, not just this one. If you missed this one, you missed a good show.\nWell put, Barbara, although I did get a little tired of the rolling waves, which I think are leftover from some earlier production....sure didn't look like the Nile to me",

        "raw_content": "What if a Whole Food Plant-Based Diet were a Pill?\nIn his book \u201cWhole\u201d, T. Colin Campbell poses this very question. So what would happen if all the effects of a whole food plant-based diet could really be achieved through a drug? If someone actually invented this drug, some large pharmaceutical company that we'll call \u201cBig Pharma\u201d would likely buy the licensing rights and launch this new pill. According to T. Colin Campbell, the marketing of this new drug, which he calls Eunutria, would of course include a list of the following scientifically proven effects:\nPrevents most cancers (95% of all cancers), including those caused by toxins in the environment\nPrevents nearly all strokes and heart attacks\nReverses heart disease, including severe heart disease\nPrevents and reverses Type 2 diabetes. In fact, so quickly and profoundly that it\u2019s dangerous for users to continue using insulin. And that\u2019s in as little as three days!\nAll drugs have side effects, and \"Big Pharma\" would be required by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) to mention the following side effects:\nSustainably gets you to your ideal weight\nEliminates most migraines, acne, colds and flu, chronic pain, and intestinal distress\nCures erectile dysfunction (no need for Viagra or Cialis)\nAlthough not required by the FDA, \u201cBig Pharma\u201d would also make environmental effects known, including the following:\nSlows and possibly reverses global warming\nReduces groundwater contamination\nEnds need for deforestation\nShuts down factory farms\nReduces malnutrition and dislocation\nT. Colin Campbell goes on to mention that not only is a whole food plant-based diet the healthiest way of eating that has ever been studied, it\u2019s far more effective in promoting health and preventing disease than prescription drugs, surgery, vitamin and herbal supplementation, and genetic manipulation.\nIf the whole food plant-based diet were a pill, not only would the inventor become the wealthiest person in the world, I believe that \u201cBig Pharma\u201d would likely be the last pharmaceutical company because there would be very little need for medications.\nThe reality is that a whole food plant-based diet is not a pill, is not covered by insurance, and does not make people and/or corporations wealthy. Producers of meat, dairy, soda and other sugary and/or high fat foods, along with the fast food industry, producers of medications, insurance providers, and the medical community have the most to lose if everyone were to adopt a whole food plant-based diet. It\u2019s because of this that the truth has been covered up by half-truths, unverified claims, and outright lies. Many powerful interests ignore, discredit, or hide the truth, and so far this has worked to keep the public feeding out of their hands.\nHere\u2019s the great news: YOU can have this \u201cpill\u201d, and it\u2019s almost FREE!

        "raw_content": "Laurence Binyon Biography\nLaurence Robert Binyon, (August 10, 1869 - March 10, 1943) was a British poet and scholar.\nHe is best known for the poem \"For the Fallen\", first published in the Times in September, 1914. The seven-verse poem honoured the World War I English war dead of that time and in particular the British Expeditionary Force, which had by then already had high casualty rates on the developing Western Front. The fourth verse from that poem has gained an existence of its own and is known today as \"The Ode\" - one that applies to all war casualties:\n\"The Ode\" is still regularly recited on occasions such as ANZAC day in Australia and Remembrance Day in Canada, and adorns numerous war memorials. In Australia's Retired Servicemen's Leagues, it is read out nightly at 6 p.m.\nBinyon was born in Lancaster, England. Educated at Trinity College, Oxford, he was already writing poetry by 1890, and won the Newdigate Prize for one poem whilst still at Oxford. After graduation, he worked as a curator in the Oriental Department of the British Museum. Although too old to enlist, he went to the Western Front in 1916 to work for the Red Cross as a medical orderly. After the war, he returned to the museum, and wrote several books on art, in particular Oriental art. In 1933, he was appointed Norton professor of poetry at Harvard.\nLaurence Binyon Resources\nThis article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License.

        "raw_content": "Toxoplasmosis Infection Causes Rodents to Fatally Lose Fear of Cats; Parasite Also Infects 1 in 4 Humans with Unknown Effects; Organism Appears Able to Alter Acetylation of Multiple Proteins in Cortical Astrocytes\nRodents infected with a common parasite lose their fear of cats, resulting in easy meals for the felines. Now Indiana University (IU) School of Medicine researchers have identified a new way the parasite may modify brain cells, possibly helping explain changes in the behavior of mice -- and humans. The parasite is Toxoplasma gondii, which has infected an estimated one in four Americans and even larger numbers worldwide. Not long after infecting a human, Toxoplasma parasites encounter the body's immune response and retreat to a latent state, enveloped in hardy cysts that the body cannot remove. Before entering that inactive state, however, the parasites appear to make significant changes in some of the brain's most common, and critical cells, the researchers said. The team, led by William Sullivan, Ph.D., Professor of Pharmacology and Toxicology and of Microbiology and Immunology, reported two sets of related findings about those cells, called astrocytes, on March 18, 2015, in the journal PLOS ONE. The article is titled \u201cProteome-Wide Lysine Acetylation in Cortical Astrocytes and Alterations That Occur during Infection with Brain Parasitr Toxoplasma gondii.\u201d Astrocytes are found throughout the brain and are involved in a variety of important brain structures and activities. Dr. Sullivan and his team evaluated the proteins in astrocyte cells and found 529 sites on 324 proteins where compounds called acetyl groups are added to proteins, creating a map called an \"acetylome,\" much as a map of all the genes in a particular species is known as its \"genome.\" In addition, 277 sites on 186 of the proteins had not been reported in previous studies of other types of cells.\nSangamo Presents Dramatic Data Indicating Their ZFP Enzymatic Approach Can Prevent and Reverse Pathogenic Accumulation of Mutant Protein in Huntington\u2019s Disease in Animal Models; Wexler Terms Results a \u201cSignificant Step Forward\u201d\nOn November 19, 2014, Sangamo BioSciences, Inc., announced its presentation of positive preclinical data from its joint program with Shire plc, to develop a novel ZFP (zinc-finger protein) Therapeutic\u00ae approach to Huntington's disease (HD), at the 2014 Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. Note that zinc fingers are proteins that normally bind at different bases in DNA in order to regulate gene activity. The dramatically exciting data were generated by Sangamo scientists and the CHDI Foundation, which is dedicated to accelerating therapeutic developments for HD. \"These data are very exciting and represent a significant step forward in the quest for a therapeutic for Huntington's disease,\" said Nancy Wexler, Ph.D., Higgins Professor of Neuropsychology in the Departments of Neurology and Psychiatry of the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University, and the President of the Hereditary Disease Foundation. \"They provide the first demonstration of a therapeutic approach that can not only prevent, but reverse the accumulation of mutant Huntingtin protein aggregates in the brains of animal models of the disease. Furthermore, the treatment does not affect the expression of the normal form of the protein, which is believed to be essential.\" The mutant form of the Huntingtin protein (Htt) accumulates in cells and forms protein aggregates which are associated with disease symptoms. Pioneering basic research in transgenic animal models has shown that the levels of the defective Htt protein correlate with disease progression, stimulating the search for strategies to reduce mutant Htt levels as a therapeutic intervention. However, most \"Htt-lowering\" methods decrease the levels of both disease-causing and normal forms of Htt.\nRas Protein Regulates Circadian Rhythms and Responds to External Time Cues\nBiochemists at the Ruhr-Universit\u00e4t Bochum in Germany have gained new insights into the generation and maintenance of circadian rhythms. They have demonstrated that the Ras protein (image) is important for setting the phase of such a circadian clock, as its activity determines the period length of the rhythm. Ras is also contributing to induce phase-shifts in circadian rhythms in response to external time cues such as light. The team headed by Professor Dr. Rolf Heumann published its results online on March 12, 2015 in Molecular Neurobiology. The circadian clock \u201cticks\u201d in every cell of the body; a central master clock, however, is located in the brain, more specifically in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus, which is old in evolutionary terms. Its activity determines the cycle\u2019s period length, which is close to, but not exactly, 24 hours; it has to be continuously adjusted by external signals such as light, motor activity, or food intake to an exact 24-hour rhythm. Such regulation is the result of many proteins acting and interacting in various signal cascades. A central switch for such signal cascades is the Ras protein, which is present either in its active or in its inactive form. The group from Bochum demonstrated in mice that Ras activity in the SCN is high during the day and low during the night. Moreover, Ras activity was increased after brief exposure to light during the night. In collaboration with a Frankfurt-based team, headed by Professor Dr. J\u00f6rg Stehle, the researchers from Bochum also studied the phenomenon in genetically modified mice, whose Ras activity is increased exclusively in neurons of the brain. They found that the activity in the SCN oscillated with a significant shorter period than 24 hours \u2013 additional evidence for the relevance of Ras for the circadian rhythm.\nMajor Neurobiology Question Answered: SCN Neurons Expressing NMS Neuropeptide Are the Cells Controlling Circadian Rhythms\nUniversity of Texas (UT) Southwestern Medical Center neuroscientists have identified key cells within the brain that are critical for determining circadian rhythms, the 24-hour processes that control sleep and wake cycles, as well as other important body functions such as hormone production, metabolism, and blood pressure. Circadian rhythms are generated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) located within the hypothalamus of the brain, but researchers had previously been unable to pinpoint which of the many thousands of neurons in the region were involved in controlling the body's timekeeping mechanisms. \"We have found that a group of SCN neurons that express a neuropeptide called neuromedin S (NMS) is both necessary and sufficient for the control of circadian rhythms,\" said Dr. Joseph Takahashi (photo), Chairman of Neuroscience and Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Investigator at UT Southwestern, who holds the Loyd B. Sands Distinguished Chair in Neuroscience. The findings, published in the March 4, 2015 issue of Neuron, may offer important targets for future treatments of diseases and problems related to circadian dysfunction, which range from jet lag and sleep disorders to neurological problems such as Alzheimer's disease, as well as metabolism issues and psychiatric disorders such as depression. Key studies in the 1970s revealed that the SCN communicates and coordinates cells throughout the body to control circadian rhythms, but the SCN contains many neurons with different expression patterns of neuropeptides and neurotransmitters. \"Which of these neurons are responsible for producing circadian rhythms was a major unanswered question in neurobiology. This study marks a significant advancement in our understanding of the body clock\" said senior author Dr.\nClues to New Microfluidic Systems and More Powerful Glues Come from the Velvet Worm\nThe velvet worm is a slow-moving, unassuming creature. With its soft body, probing antennae, and stubby legs, it looks like a slug on stilts as it creeps along damp logs in tropical climates. But it has a secret weapon. In the dark of night, when an unsuspecting cricket or termite crosses its path, the worm unleashes an instantaneous torrent of slime. Two fine jets of the gluey substance spray out of openings on its head, oscillating in all directions to cast a sticky net that entraps prey and stops it in its tracks. Captivated, so to speak, by the worm\u2019s split-second attack, researchers from Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and from universities in Chile, Costa Rica, and Brazil have been studying the creature from all angles. How, they asked, does such a slow, neurologically simple worm execute such a rapid and perfectly aimed movement? By applying new insights from anatomy, mathematics, experimental physics, and fluid dynamics, they now have an answer\u2014published online on March 17, 2015 in an open-access article in Nature Communications\u2014and the findings could inspire new microfluidic devices. Imagine a large syringe equipped, at its narrow tip, with an elastic tube shaped like the neck of a bendy drinking straw. That is apparently the velvet worm\u2019s slime-shooting apparatus, from its tail end\u2014where the slime is produced and stored in a reservoir\u2014to a pair of tiny nozzles called papillae on its head. Given this structure, a slow and gentle squeeze on the reservoir is all it takes to eject the slime with great speed and force. Most importantly, the shape and elasticity of the papillae ensure that as the slime exits, it sprays in all directions, like water gushing through a flailing garden hose. \u201cThe geometry of the system allows the worm to squirt fast and cover a wide area.\nZon Zones in on Gilead\u2019s Miracle Hepatitis C Drug (Solvaldi\u2122)\nIn his latest \u201cZone in with Zon\u201d blog post blog, dated March 16, 2015, and published by TriLink BioTechnologies of San Diego, Dr. Gerald Zon declares that Gilead\u2019s new drug Solvaldi\u2122 for treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections is \u201ctruly a drug developer\u2019s dream come true.\u201d And Dr. Zon should certainly know, having been intimately involved in drug discovery and development for many years. He notes that the Gilead\u2019s nucleotide-analog prodrug is reported to produce an over 90% cure rate in HCV-infected patients over a 12-week (84-day) course of treatment that involves simply taking one pill per day. That, Dr. Zon says, is \u201camazing.\u201d However, he immediately remarks that this powerful benefit comes at a considerable expense, with a single Solvaldi pill costing $1,000 and a full-treatment cost of $84,000 per patient. He adds that the estimated manufacturing cost of manufacturing per pill is $68-$138 and this huge disparity between the cost and the price being charged has been the subject of considerable controversy. Particular concerns have been raised as to how this pricing will influence the impact of this drug in developing countries where HCV infection is relatively high, and also in U.S. prison populations where HCV infection is rampant. Before addressing these and other ticklish issues, Dr. Zon provides some useful history on the development of this \u201cmiracle drug.\u201d Apparently, it all began with work by two companies, Pharmasset, which was founded on the East Coast in 1998, and Gilead Sciences, Inc., which was founded on the West Coast in 1987. Pharmasset did significant early R&D work on development of an oral drug for HCV treatment and this work ultimately allowed the company to go public in 2007. Dr.\nStem Cell Method Uses Sangamo Zinc-Finger Nucleases to Correct Sickle Cell Disease Mutation\nUCLA stem cell researchers have shown that a novel stem cell gene therapy method could one day provide a one-time, lasting treatment for the most common inherited blood disorder in the United States \u2013 sickle cell disease. Published online on March 2, 2015 in the journal Blood, the study outlines a method that corrects the mutated gene that causes sickle cell disease and shows, for the first time, that the gene correction method leads to the production of normal red blood cells. The study was directed by renowned stem cell researcher and UCLA Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research member, Dr. Donald Kohn. The article is titled \u201cCorrection of the Sickle-Cell Disease Mutation in Human Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells.\u201d People with sickle cell disease are born with a mutation in their beta-globin gene, which codes for part of the tetrameric protein that forms hemoglobin the protein responsible for delivering oxygen to the body through blood circulation. Typically, hemoglobin is made of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Sickle cell disease is an autosomal recessive disease, meaning that affected individuals have the sickle cell mutation in both of their beta-globin genes. The mutation causes blood stem cells \u2013 which are made in the bone marrow \u2013 to produce distorted and rigid red blood cells that resemble a crescent or \u201csickle\u201d shape. The abnormally shaped red blood cells do not move smoothly through blood vessels, resulting in insufficient oxygen supply to vital organs. Anyone can be born with sickle cell disease, but it occurs more frequently in African Americans and Hispanic Americans.\nInhibition of Th17 Cells Prevents Type 1 Diabetes in Animal Models\nScientists at the Jupiter, Florida campus of The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have successfully tested a potent synthetic compound that prevents type 1 diabetes in animal models of the disease. \u201cThe animals in our study never developed high blood sugar indicative of diabetes, and beta cell damage was significantly reduced compared to animals that hadn\u2019t been treated with our compound,\u201d said Laura Solt, Ph.D., a TSRI biologist who was the lead author of the study, published in the March 2015 issue of Endocrinology. The article is titled \u201cROR Inverse Agonist Suppresses Insulitis and Prevents Hyperglycemia in a Mouse Model of Type 1 Diabetes.\u201d Type 1 diabetes is a consequence of the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. While standard treatment for the disease aims to replace lost insulin, the new study focuses instead on the possibility of preventing the initial devastation caused by the immune system\u2014stopping the disease before it even gets started. In the study, the scientists tested an experimental compound known as SR1001 in non-obese diabetic animal models. The compound targets a pair of \u201cnuclear receptors\u201d (ROR\u03b1 and RORg) that play critical roles in the development of a specific population (Th17) of immune cells associated with the disease. \u201cBecause Th17 cells have been linked to a number of autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis, we thought our compound might inhibit Th17 cells in type 1 diabetes and possibly interfere with disease progression,\u201d said Dr. Solt. \u201cWe were right.\u201d The researchers found that SR1001 eliminated the incidence of diabetes and minimized insulitis, which is the inflammation associated with, and destroyer of, insulin-producing cells, in the treated animals.\nNew Molecule Targets RIPK1 to Inhibits Cytokine Production and Halt Inflammation; Shows Initial Potential for Preventing MS Progression in Model Systems\nWalter and Eliza Hall Institute scientists in Australia have developed a new drug-like molecule that can halt inflammation and has shown promise in preventing the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). Dr. Ueli Nachbur, Associate Professor John Silke, Associate Professor Guillaume Lessene, Professor Andrew Lew, and colleagues developed the molecule to inhibit a key signal that triggers inflammation. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease that damages the central nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. There is no cure and there is a desperate need for new and better treatments. Inflammatory diseases such as MS are triggered by an over-active immune system, Dr. Nachbur said. \"Inflammation results when our immune cells release hormones called cytokines, which is a normal response to disease,\" he said. \"However, when too many cytokines are produced, inflammation can get out-of-control and damage our own body, all of which are hallmarks of immune or inflammatory diseases.\" To apply the brakes on this runaway immune response, institute researchers developed a small drug-like molecule called WEHI-345 that binds to and inhibits a key immune signaling protein called RIPK2 (receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 2). This prevents the release of inflammatory cytokines. Professor Lew said they examined WEHI-345's potential to treat immune diseases in experimental models of MS. \"We treated preclinical models with WEHI-345 after symptoms of MS first appeared, and found it could prevent further progression of the disease in 50 per cent of cases,\" he said. \"These results are extremely important, as there are currently no good preventive treatments for MS.\" The article was published online on March 17, 2015 in Nature Communications.\nGecko Discovery Could Eliminate Need to Wash Clothes\nIn a world first, a research team including James Cook University (JCU) scientists in Queensland, Australia, has discovered how geckos manage to stay clean, even in dusty deserts. The process, described in an article published online on March 11, 2015 in the journal Interface, may also turn out to have important human applications. JCU's Professor Lin Schwarzkopf said the research group found that tiny droplets of water on geckos, for instance from condensing dew, come into contact with hundreds of thousands of extremely small hair-like spines that cover the animals' bodies. \"If you have seen how drops of water roll off a car after it is waxed, or off a couch that's had protective spray used on it, you've seen the process happening,\" she said. \"The wax and spray make the surface very bumpy at micro and nano levels, and the water droplets remain as little balls, which roll easily and come off with gravity or even a slight wind.\" The geckos' hair-like spines trap pockets of air and work on the same principle, but have an even more dramatic effect. Through a scanning electron microscope, tiny water droplets can be seen rolling into each other and jumping like popcorn off the skin of the animal as they merge and release energy. Scientists were aware that hydrophobic surfaces repelled water, and that the rolling droplets helped clean the surfaces of leaves and insects, but this is the first time it has been documented in a vertebrate animal. Box-patterned geckos live in semi-arid habitats, with little rain, but may have dew forming on them when the temperature drops overnight. Professor Schwarzkopf said the process may help geckos keep clean, as the water can carry small particles of dust and dirt away from their body. \"They tend to live in dry environments where they can't depend on it raining, and this process keeps them clean,\" she said.",

While integrating a good dose of melodies and clean singing parts, MISERATION's Lifeforce debut is driven by fast-tempo drumming and a distinctive in-your-face guitar approach that makes you think of the early '90s Swedish metal heroes. MISERATION's style is sophisticated without being too progressive that should appeal to fans of EDGE OF SANITY, BLOODBATH, HYPOCRISY, SOILWORK, or early IN FLAMES. 'Your Demons, Their Angels' is a masterpiece of rigorous heavy riffing and ruthless melodies and an impressive vision of what the future of European death metal should sound like.\"\nFor more information, visit www.myspace.com/miseration.",

        "raw_content": "When Ken Block, managing principal of Block Real Estate Services, sets his sites on an attractive piece of development ground, he generally gets it \u2014 even if it takes a few decades.\nSuch was the case with an Overland Park soybean field that Block began eyeing more than 30 years ago and where BRES' $350 million CityPlace development is now blooming.\nAnd such was the case with the vacant triangle-shaped parcel that lies south of 46th Street between Roanoke Parkway and Madison Avenue on the west side of the Country Club Plaza.\nBRES, which is headquartered just two blocks east of there on 47th Street, will invest $90 million developing a 245-unit apartment project on the site, Block said. Dubbed 47Madison, it will include a 13-story tower, top-of-the-market rents and unparalleled amenities.\nAaron Mesmer, a BRES broker specializing in acquisitions and investment sales, said 47Madison will redefine Kansas City luxury apartment living, with interiors graced by \"not just luxury finishes, not just condo finishes\" but something more.\nIn short, Mesmer said, 47Madison will be \"a first-class trophy property\" and a fitting bookend for the Plaza.\nRoxsen Koch, a Polsinelli PC attorney representing BRES, said the firm has been working on the 47Madison project for 18 months.\n\"But Ken has mentioned that he's been looking at this site for years,\" she said.\nKoch and Mesmer spoke Wednesday during a meeting of the Kansas City Council's Planning, Zoning and Economic Development Committee, which voted unanimously to recommend adoption of a new development plan for 47Madison and deletion of the site from a previously approved development plan.\nIn 1986, Mesmer explained, the 16-story Plaza West office building was completed at 4600 Madison, immediately north of the 1.5-acre 47Madison site. The previous development plan called for a seven-story office building to be constructed on that site, he said, but that plan never came to fruition.\nThus, Ken Block recently got his chance to acquire the site from its previous owners. The seller, a joint venture between former Country Club Plaza owner Highwoods Properties and an investment group led by Angelo Mariani, also sold the adjacent Plaza West building last year, to Los Angeles-based Stanton Road Capital LLC.\nMesmer said that BRES officials originally considered developing an office building on their new trophy site. But that would have added about 1,000 vehicles a day to a surrounding road network that includes the busy intersection of Roanoke Parkway, Madison Avenue and 47th Street.\nBRES opted for the 245-unit residential project to \"avoid what would have been a traffic disaster at this location,\" Mesmer said.\nIn addition, BRES developed a plan for simplifying traffic movements through the adjacent intersection, he said, and designed the apartment structure with its two- to four-story neighbors to the west in mind.\nIn addition to the 13-story tower, apartments will be housed in two-story structures along Roanoke that will look like townhomes, with individual entrances for each of the ground-floor units.\nMesmer, who last year saw his firm's $38 million plan for another Plaza-area apartment project get shot down by the City Council partly due to neighborhood opposition, said the West Plaza Neighborhood Association wrote a letter supporting the 47Madison project. In addition, he said, at the conclusion of his recent presentation about the project to a group of Plaza area neighborhood leaders, he got something he's never received from such a group \u2014 an ovation.\n\"This is a well-designed project with great appreciation for its urban setting and the neighborhoods they are going to be in the middle of,\" said Councilwoman Kathryn Shields, who made the motion to recommend approval of the 47Madison development plan. \"And you don't often get this level of quality without having various incentives requested.\"\nMesmer said BRES would not seek incentives for the project, for which construction is expected to begin in May or June.\nDesigned by NSPJ Architects, 47Madison will be built by Titan Built, which also has served as the general contractor for other BRES luxury apartment projects in the metro area.\nBesides the apartment units, the 47Madison site will include a pedestrian plaza at the tip of the triangle adjacent to the 47th Street/Roanoke/Madison intersection. It will include an outdoor patio, public art, water features, seating, landscaping and a sidewalk constructed of decorative paving.\nThe project also calls for outdoor rooftop and amenity decks, with the latter including a resort-style pool, cabanas, grill stations and fire pits.\nOther site amenities will include a clubhouse and fitness facility with wrap-around porch, an uber lounge in the main lobby, electric-car charging stations, bike racks and storage, bike repair facilities and multiple green technology features.\nParking for the project will be provided by a 322-space garage, which will be wrapped by the apartment units and accessible from Madison Avenue and Roanoke Parkway\nhttp://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2017/01/19/47madison-luxury-apartment-complex.html?ana=e_mc_prem&s=newsletter&ed=2017-01-19&u=X6u%25207AP9Xv7LtFoJviq7aQ0f32ed23&t=1484838439&j=77120401#i1\nTags: Kenneth G.

        "raw_content": "As I stand on the pavement at the top of my road, I look over the expanse of blue ocean that stretches beyond the City Bowl, with its buildings huddled between the mountain and the foreshore. I can see the long thin strip of pale yellow sand at the far side of the bay. Two large container ships are anchored in the distance.\nMy stuff arrived yesterday from England, and I think of my best china, carefully wrapped in paper and boxes, swaying this way and that over wild Atlantic seas\u2026 safely brought to harbour on a similar boat, so that I can surround myself with the things I love. And THIS is home. Where the heart is. The place you love, with the one you love and the things you love.\nPeople say things are just things. They are unimportant. And I think about materialism and the pursuit of possessions per se and I realise this is different. The love of accumulating is very different to the treasuring of that which has travelled with you through life. Leaving England, I sold or gave away or threw away a great deal of what I owned. Only the cherished things remain now, carefully selected from the harsh pruning of the past seven years. I love my things. They bring me joy. They are beautiful, ae sthetic, full of happy memories. Love was poured into the design of them, the making of them, the choosing, the buying and the maintaining. Fond memories pour back as I unfold the tissue. The red porcelain plates I first admired with my mother in Liberty\u2019s in 1982 are still in tact: a wedding gift from my brothers. I look at my treasured photographs of the children when they were small. I put my favourite books on the shelf. I polish the cutlery my parents gave me more than twenty years ago. I don\u2019t want more things. It isn\u2019t the acquisition of things that is important. It isn\u2019t the buying or hoarding. It\u2019s the memory of a life well lived, of carefully chosen pieces which together create an ambience \u2013 my home \u2013 from the family house in Twickenham to the flat in Clapham, and all the way to Cape Town.\nI survey the familiar old friends and somehow they speak to my heart and reassure me I\u2019m on solid ground and all is well in my world. I relax. I drive home along the freeway and feel the hot sun on my arm which rests on the open window. Signal Hill and Lion\u2019s Head stand sentry over the city. I screw my eyes against the fierce bright light. The sea shimmers to my right. I live here. I\u2019m home. From this space I can give of myself. I can contribute to the world of others in some way, however small \u2013 and if it brings joy then it is in service to humanity and it has all been worthwhile.",

        "title": "Sixers Defeat Magic in Double OT - Broad Street Beat",
        "raw_content": "Sixers Defeat Magic in Double OT\nThe 76ers (6-12) welcomed the Magic (6-11) into the Wells Fargo Center as Philadelphia hoped to break their four game losing streak. This is the second matchup between these teams this season, with the Sixers dropping the first contest 105-94 in Orlando only last week. This would also be the second game between rookie phenoms, Michael Carter-Williams and Victor Oladipo, and both had the best performances of their young careers. MCW was named Eastern Conference rookie of the month for November before the game. It would take 2 overtime periods, but the Sixers pulled out the win, 126-125.\nThe Sixers got a break with the news that Orlando's Nikola Vucevic and Jameer Nelson would not play. Hollis Thompson received his second start of the season for the Sixers. Even against a short-handed team, Philly allowed the Magic to have their way offensively early on. Orlando scored 34 points in the first quarter and shot impressively throughout the half, finishing 58% from the floor in the first half. Even with Orlando flowing on offense, the Sixers held their own. MCW would put in a layup after a nice hustle play to give the Sixers their first lead since the first quarter with a little over 2:00 remaining in the half. Philadelphia went into the break up 58-57, committing only 6 turnovers and connecting on 6 three-pointers in the first half. Carter-Williams led the 76ers at the half with 11 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals. Arron Afflalo led all scorers at the half with 18 for the Magic.\nPhiladelphia was able create some breathing room in the 3rd quarter as Thad Young and Spencer Hawes turned up their scoring output. A pair of free throws from Turner gave the Sixers a double digit lead, 83-72 with just under 4 minutes left in the 3rd. However, Oladipo kept Orlando in the game as they ended the 3rd down by 5. The Sixers offense fell apart down the stretch, committing 6 turnovers within 10 possessions, allowing the Magic to go on a 9-0 run, giving them the lead with 2:45 on the clock. But after a quick timeout called by Brett Brown, the 76ers turned it around, making 3 consecutive stops on defense and were able to take the lead. Afflalo hit his 4th three-pointer of the game in the face of Thad Young immediately coming out of a timeout to make it a one point game. After Thad Young scored on a driving layup, Glen Davis hit an out of character three pointer to tie it up at 104 with :12 left. Turner was unable to end it and the Sixers would play in their 4th overtime game of the season.\nOvertime was kept close by both teams. MCW found James Anderson who completed a three-point play to give the Sixers a 5 point lead with 1:30 left. Afflalo came right back with a three-point play of his own. After 2 made FTs by Thad, Oladipo missed a free-throw, but the ball went out of bounds off the Sixers to give the Magic life. Turner fouled Afflalo while attempting a three and he was able to make them all to tie it up again at 118 with :12.1 on the clock. Turner fell down while driving and Orlando forced a jump ball which Orlando would win but could not hit the hail mary as the game went into a second OT.\nTurner fouled out on the first possession committing an offensive foul. The Sixers looked energized and were active in the 2nd overtime period, making hustle plays on both sides of the ball. A Thad Young floater put Philly up 5, but they could not put the game away. After a turnover, a Magic basket, and 2 missed free-throws by Anderson, the Magic would get the ball, down by 3 with :09 seconds left. Luckily for the Sixers, Afflalo missed a three-pointer and the ball would go out of bounds. Anderson put the game away with a made FT (even though Afflalo would hit another 3 as time expired) as the Sixers would win 126-125 in double overtime.\nBoth rookie stars had their first career triple-doubles. Carter-Williams finished with 27 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. Oladipo scored 26 and added 10 rebounds and 10 assists for Orlando. Thad Young contributed 25 points and grabbed 12 boards and Turner scored 24 before fouling out, but turned the ball over 8 times. Anderson scored 19 for Philly in his new reserve role. Arron Afflalo had a career high 43 points and added 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Glen Davis also scored a career-high with 33 points before fouling out late in the second OT. Without Vucevic on the floor, the Sixers were able to out-rebound and out-score the Magic in the paint.\nThe Sixers snap a 4-game losing streak with the win. The team travels to Charlotte to play the Bobcats (8-10) on Friday.",

        "raw_content": "You are at:Home\u00bbBusiness\u00bb6 Legal Issues to Navigate Carefully Around the Workplace\nBy Greg Flynn September 21, 2017 No Comments\nAn employment lawyer can offer a wide range of advice and assistance to both employers and employees when it comes to workplace issues and disputes. And sometimes these issues are too complex or complicated to be resolved by the parties alone.\nThese issues can range from disputes about working conditions, employment contracts or various entitlements where there is a wide difference of opinion. They can mediate disagreements and bring a cool and reasoned voice to even the most heated of workplace arguments.\n1. Workplace harassment\nHarassment and discrimination are prohibited by law and human right legislation, but that doesn\u2019t seem to stop them from happening at work. No one wins when these types of cases end up in court or tribunals, and an employment lawyer may be able to help before a situation reaches that eventuality. Sometimes this might include meetings with the employer to request that the harassment immediately cease and an offer to help negotiate any outstanding issues. In other cases a more formal consultation or mediation may be required on the part of the employment lawyer.\nSexual violence and sexual harassment is particularly dangerous ground for any employer and there is now a higher burden on employers to create and maintain a safe and violence free workplace. For employers that means they no longer have to say that they have a safe workplace, they may be required to prove it. An employment lawyer can help craft and implement a sexual violence and workplace harassment policy to meet these new regulatory requirements. If not, employers can expect to pay an increasing financial penalty for anyone who successfully claims that they were harassed at work.\nThe result of this heightened awareness on sexual violence and harassment at work has been a dramatic increase in the amounts being awarded to plaintiffs who were harassed at work. In some instances, the awards are doubling from where they were just a few years ago. One recent case saw a single-parent administrative assistant receive a $300,000 settlement in a sexual harassment situation.\nIn some cases, there may be a legal requirement that has not been fulfilled. In others, there may be some ignorance of the rights of both employers and their employees. In any of these cases there might be a need for the expert advice and guidance of an employment lawyer. This is particularly true in situations that are new, untested or where the jurisprudence is still being developed. Two of those emerging issues in employment law today are in workplace harassment and sexual violence, and terminations and wrongful dismissal.\n4. Terminations\nEmployers need to carry out employee terminations from time to time. It\u2019s just a normal part of doing business. But these terminations must be done in a proper and legal fashion. A wrong step in this area could lead to a lawsuit and damages later. An employment lawyer can ensure that terminations are carried out in accordance with the law and stated company policies. Every employer should have this type of protection against claims and lawsuits.\nToday, that is more crucial than ever because several developments have made it tougher and more expensive to dismiss employees without cause. Some recent court cases have broadened the factors that govern payouts to employees in dismissal without cause cases. While at the same time, the traditional factors are becoming less important or being ignored or given a lower profile by the courts. This makes getting good employment legal advice very important before a termination order is issues.\nThe rules of the game are changing in this area of employment law in another way as well. The latest trend is to have summary judgements rather than a trial for civil matters like severance pay or notice period complaints. This ups the ante on employers to settle faster and not necessarily in their interest and it also increases the need to make the right set of initial decisions on any termination case. That\u2019s where employment lawyers can come in. They have the latest information and can provide current an accurate recommendations to guide employers in the right legal direction.\nPrevious Article4 Ways to Assess Different Retirement Homes\nNext Article 5 Tips for Removing Rust & Restoring Your Sheet Metal",

        "raw_content": "When stocking up on non-perishable foods to help you through the Apocalypse, don\u2019t forget the Jello!\nJello (actually correctly spelled Jell-O) is composed the three things: gelatin, sugar, and flavorings. All three of these last forever, making Jello a wonderful Armageddon food. Besides that, it\u2019s very nutritious. And it tastes good.\nWhy is gelatin good for you? Because it\u2019s loaded with amino acids, which are the building blocks of life. Amino acids link together to form proteins. Every chemical reaction that takes place in the body relies on amino acids and the proteins they build. There are 20 different amino acids, and each one is essential for maintaining a healthy body. The human body is capable of manufacturing ten of these amino acids on its own, but the other ten must come from daily doses of food. They are not stored in the body as some vitamins, starches, and fats are; they must be ingested every day. Gelatin contains all of these essential amino acids except for one -- tryptophan. (Tryptophan, which helps regulate sleep, is the one so prevalent in turkey.) Therefore, if you\u2019re starving in a post-apocalyptic world of food shortages, Jello is a good item to have on hand.\nWhere does gelatin come from? It comes from boiling animal hides, bones, and tendons. Gelatin is basically processed collagen, and collagen is a structural protein in the skin, bones, and connective tissue of animals. Collagen makes up about one-third of all the protein in the human body. Gelatin is an easily digested form of collagen. Incidentally, glucosamine \u2013 so useful in maintaining healthy joints \u2013 also comes from boiling bones (and the exo-skeletons of crustaceans). Glucosamine is an amino acid that comes from glucose: glucose-amine. And while we\u2019re on the subject, the word \u2018vitamin\u2019 also springs from amino: \u2018vital\u2019 + \u2018amine\u2019.\nIf you\u2019ve ever boiled bones for soup, then chilled the broth in the fridge and found that it gelled up, you\u2019ve made your own gelatin. If you\u2019ve ever roasted a chicken and found meat jelly in the bottom of the pan (perfect for making gravy), you\u2019ve made gelatin. Many old-fashioned recipe books include instructions for making aspic, which is just another word for gelatin. (\u2018Aspe\u2019 comes from the Latin word for jelly.) In the days before refrigeration, aspic was used as a preservative, because meats that were buried inside jellied aspic were safe from contact with air and bacteria. In factories, gelatin is filtered, concentrated, chilled, cut into ribbons, dried, then ground into powder. The final product is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. The Knox company sells packets of pure gelatin. The Jell-O corporation adds sweeteners and flavoring.\nHow long does Jello last? If kept in its original container at ambient humidity and a controlled temperature, gelatin can last nearly forever. Manufacturers generally limit the shelf life to just two or three years, which has more to do with the shelf life of the packaging than the shelf life of the gelatin. This makes it a wonderful survival food, as does the ease of preparation: just add hot water. You don\u2019t necessarily even need to wait for it to gel. You can simply drink the hot liquid, like a sort of Kool-aid soup.\nEvery so often, Walgreens offers a special on Royal brand gelatin, selling them five for a dollar. If each box of gelatin serves four people, that works out to a nickel per serving. For $20 you can serve a big bowl of jiggly, wiggly amino acids to 400 people. I strip the outer packaging and get rid of the boxes in order to save space, then pack batches of the envelopes into Zip-lock baggies or seal them using my Seal-a-Meal. I stack them in tin canisters with tight lids, seal the lids with duct tape, and store them in my crawl space. I tape a flattened box (including preparation instructions) to the lid of the canister, not only to identify the contents, but also to remind survivors how to make it. For good measure, I also have a copy of a cookbook called \"The Joys of Jello\" on hand.\nIf you ever find that your body is deteriorating due to lack of essential amino acids and you don\u2019t have any Jello on hand, don\u2019t forget about all of those lost explorers who staved off starvation by boiling their shoes. That\u2019s gelatin, too. If you don\u2019t have any leather shoes around, or leather belts or leather purses, then don\u2019t overlook rawhide dog chews that you may have on hand if you have a pet pooch. Boil those overnight and you\u2019ll have a nice gelatinous glop which can serve as a nutritious base for soups and stews. I keep several crates of canned dog food stacked up in storage. In the small interstices between the cans, I dropped hundreds of rawhide chew sticks which I purchased at my local Dollar Store, 20 sticks per package for a buck. At the very least, they\u2019ll provide some dog with a good supply of treats. At the very worst, it will keep people alive. They would have killed for that during the siege of Leningrad!\nJell-O hit the market in 1897 and was America\u2019s first processed food. As immigrants passed through Ellis Island, they were often served a bowl of Jell-O as a \"Welcome to America\" treat. This served to introduce foreigners to an American food they had never experienced before, thus ensuring they would buy the product for years to come. More than a century later, Jell-O is still a simple, pleasing delight. I hope you\u2019ll see fit to add a supply to your Doomsday stockpile.\nIt sure beats Shoe Soup and Dog Chew Stew.\nThese days, gelatin is used in a thousand different ways. It\u2019s an emulsifier, a stabilizer, and a thickener in foods such as ice cream, sour cream, jelly, and margarine. It adds texture to yogurt, cream cheese, and frosting. Gelatin is used in many confections such as gummy candies and marshmallows. In the pharmaceutical industry, it\u2019s used to make capsules (and paint balls, too, since paint balls are essentially capsules of paint). It\u2019s used in the photographic industry to produce paper and film. It\u2019s even been used as a substitute blood plasma. Fruit bats eat it in zoos, and chimps like it, too. Plain gelatin fertilizes plants, and Knox gelatin can be used to make an excellent hair gel.\nIt\u2019s estimated that 75% of American households have at least one box of Jello in the cupboard. People in Utah buy more Jello than any other state; perhaps that\u2019s because they have big families and a sense of thrift. Or maybe it\u2019s because they realize that Jello is a perfect survival food \u2013 and Mormons are required by their religion to stockpile food and supplies.\nWhat to do if you encounter Jell-O:\nNever let it see you're afraid. Jell-O loves this.\nSmile. Say you are a friend, you come in peace.\nReason with it.\nOffer it a gift.\nFind out what it wants.\nLet it see you have no weapons.\nIf it continues to jiggle menacingly, stab it to death with a kitchen knife and throw it in the sink.\u201d\n3rd Rock from the Sun: The Official Report on Earth by High Commander Dick Solomon",

        "raw_content": "Standard_Linear_Solid_model\nStandard Linear Solid model\nThe Standard Linear Solid model (SLS) also know as the Kelvin model [1] is a method of modeling the behavior of a viscoelastic material using a linear combination of springs and dashpots to represent elastic and viscous components, respectively. Often more similar Maxwell model and the Kelvin-Voigt model are used. These models are often proved insufficient, however; the Maxwell model does not describe creep, and the Kelvin-Voigt model does not describe stress relaxation. SLS is the simplest model that predicts both phenomena.\n2 Solving the Model\n3 Model Characteristics\nMaterials undergoing strain are often modeled with mechanical components, such as springs (restorative force component) and dashpots (dampening component).\nConnecting a spring and damper in series yields a model of a Maxwell material while connecting a spring and damper in parallel yields a model of a Kelvin-Voigt material [2]. In contrast to the Maxwell and Kelvin-Voigt models, the SLS is slightly more complex, involving elements both in series and in parallel. Springs, which represent the elastic component of a viscoelastic material, obey Hooke's Law:\nwhere \u03c3 is the applied stress, E is the Young's Modulus of the material, and \u03b5 is the strain. The spring represents the energetic or elastic component of the model's response [2].\nDashpots represent the viscous component of a viscoelastic material. In these elements, the applied stress varies with the time rate of change of the strain:\nwhere \u03b7 is viscosity of the dashpot component.\nThese elements are connected as shown on the picture: This model consists of two systems in parallel. The first, referred to as the Maxwell arm, contains a spring (E = E2) and dashpot (viscosity \u03b7) in series[2]. The other system contains only a spring (E = E1).\nSolving the Model\nIn order to model this system, the following physical relations must be realized:\nFor parallel components: \u03c3tot = \u03c31 + \u03c32 , and [2].\nFor series components: \u03c3tot = \u03c31 = \u03c32 , and [2].\nThese relationships help relate the various stresses and strains in the overall system and the Maxwell arm:\nwhere the subscripts M, D, S1,and S2 refer to Maxwell, dashpot, spring one, and spring two, respectively.\nUsing these relationships, their time derivatives, and the above stress-strain relationships for the spring and dashpot elements, the system can be modeled as follows:\nThe relaxation time, \u03c4, is different for each material and is equal to\nThe Standard Linear Solid model combines aspects of the Maxwell and Kelvin-Voigt models to accurately describe the overall behavior of a system under a given set of loading conditions. The behavior of a material applied to an instantaneous stress is shown as having an instantaneous component of the response. Instantaneous release of a stress also results in a discontinuous decrease in strain, as is expected. The shape of the time-dependent strain curve is true to the type of equation that characterizes the behavior of the model over time, depending upon how the model is loaded.\nAlthough this model can be used to accurately predict the general shape of the strain curve, as well as behavior for long time and instantaneous loads, the model lacks the ability to accurately model material systems numerically.\n^ * Fung YC.

        "raw_content": "caretakers to protect their children\u2019s online presence. Today, children use the Internet in schools and sometimes on their phones, away from parental supervision. Parents usually do not have the advanced technological understanding to protect their children from harming themselves online.\nAdvancement in technology has eased criminal collaboration and communication \u201cwith regard to the commission of acts of child abuse and exploitation.\u201d Thieves and sexual predators are using the Internet and online services to further the commission of typical abuse and exploitation acts that are committed against children. In addition, the advancement in technology has also made it easier for identity thieves and sexual predators to take advantage of children who are not careful about divulging their personal information or interacting with strangers.\nOn the other hand, technology has also brought about new forms of child abuse and exploitation. For example, the Comprehensive Study on Cybercrime divides cybercrime into three different categories: \u201cacts against the confidentiality, integrity and availability of computer data or systems, computer related acts for personal or financial gain, or harm and computer content-related acts.\u201d The study indicated that children were exposed to pornographic content when they browsed the Internet. According to reported data, more than half of the pornographic images that children viewed, they did so accidently. Specifically, a 2006 survey found that out of 42% of children between the ages of ten and seventeen, more than half indicated that the exposure was unwanted. The results of the survey also indicated that children who have been harassed for sexual encounters online were more likely to experience unwanted exposure to harmful content. Although it is difficult for parents to provide supervision at all time, parents must take the necessary steps to ensure that their children are safe and secure online.\nIV. GENDER AND AGE IN CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE\nThe National Juvenile Online Victimization Study showed that 83% of child sexual abuse materials contained images of prepubescent children. Statistics show that girls are more likely to be victims of online abuse and exploitation. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, there was an estimated 70% increase of child sexual abuse material focused on girls under the age of 10. However, this is starting to change, as demonstrated by a recent sample of collected sexual abuse images wherein 76% of the pictures were of girls, 10% boys and 10% both genders. All the same, girls have a higher likelihood of being victims of cyberbullying than boys, according to a survey conducted by Microsoft. Girls are also exposed to a higher proportion of harmful content in relation to child sexual abuse material and explicit material sent by perpetrators. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth tend to experience cyberbullying at a higher degree than other youth. According to a recent United States research, over 50 percent of youth who identified as LGTBQ reported being victim of cyberbullying. In general, girls and LGTBQ children are at a higher risk of being victims of online child sexual abuse.\nV. CYBERTHEFT DATA\nCyber thieves target children because it is easy to use their identities to the thieves\u2019 benefit. Children are often targeted for bank account, credit card and government benefit fraud. In order to commit fraud, a criminal only needs the child\u2019s social security number so the perpetrator is often someone close to the child. For instance, the Industry Trade Advisory Center (ITAC) survey found that 27% of identity thefts in the U.S. committed against children, are committed",

        "raw_content": "I enjoy link-ups and have made so many new blogging friends by participating in them. Today is the first time I've linked up with \"What's Up Wednesday\" but it won't be my last. It is a monthly link up and that appeals to me as well. Hope you enjoy!\nWhat we're eating this week...........well, I cannot lie. Truth be told, I do very little cooking these days. I try to cook what I call a decent meal a couple of times a week and the other evenings we eat \"gourmet sandwiches\" with some chips, or we go out. I'll cook more as the weather cools because we love stews, soups, chili and the such.\nWhat I'm reminiscing about.....oh, I do a lot of this and right now I'm reminiscing about my precious Mom. The 9th anniversary of her death will be December 1st. Life has never been the same without her, but life goes on. There's no one as interested in the details of your life as your Mom.\nWhat I'm loving.......the feel of fall in the air. We've had fall like weather the past 3-4 days and it looks as though it is going to continue. I love fall and the changing of the colors.\nWhat we've been up to........Hubby and I returned from a few days in Oklahoma visiting our daughter and her family this past Sunday. I've been busy getting caught up after being gone, preparing for company this weekend and going on another trip next Tuesday. Yep, it's busy around here right now.\nWhat I'm dreading........wrapping Christmas presents. I use to absolutely LOVE wrapping gifts of any kind but not anymore. I don't want to think it's my age, surely not!!!\nWhat I'm working on..........I've started my Christmas shopping and have made a decent dent in it. I have what I've bought ready to wrap but haven't gotten to the wrapping part just yet.(see above) And, I've done a rough draft of our Christmas card. Every year I think I won't send them, but somehow I keep sending them. ~go figure~\nWhat I'm excited about.......As I mentioned above, Hubby and I are going on another trip next week. We are meeting dear friends in Branson, Missouri and we'll be staying at one of my most favorite places, The Keeter Center. The colors will likely be beautiful, cooler temps and we'll be seeing some Christmas shows. Yes, I am excited about this!\nWhat I'm watching/reading..........I'm enjoying The Voice, This is Us, The Menendez Murders (everything about this show is sad) and of course, Shark Tank! About the only thing I'm reading just now is my Bible study book, Finding I Am and of course, blogs. ~smile~\nWhat I'm listening to.........funny you asked. My daughter just introduced me to K-Love radio and I've fallen in love. I play it through my IPhone and through bluetooth in my car. Wow, just such great inspiring christian music and the DJ's are awesome. Yes, I'm in love!!!\nWhat I'm wearing.........well, I'm finally in long sleeves, vests, cardigans, jeans or long pants and of course, booties. Love dressing this time of year!\nWhat I'm doing this weekend......We will be seeing both of Tommy's sisters and it's been a long time since they have both been here at the same time. One is passing through headed somewhere else and will stay here for a couple of nights. The other one will be in the area to attend her husband's 50th class reunion. It will be a quick visit, but a special time.\nWhat I'm looking forward to next month....after having time to think following my retina tears and laser surgery this past July, I have decided to get a second opinion. I'll be seeing one of the many retina specialists at Hamilton Eye Institute in Memphis, TN in mid-Nov. There are just some concerns that I have and I pray they are unfounded but I just need to hear from another specialist that \"all is well.\" It's so inconvenient to travel 4 hours to see a Dr. but when it comes to eyesight, inconvenience is not considered.\nWhat else is new.........this isn't new but just a sweet something.........As most of you know my Daddy lives in an assisted living facility about 4 miles from me. He will be 88 on Nov. 9th and is a retired minister. I generally see him at least 4-5 times a week and most of the time our visits are very special. He is a great conversationalist and so full of wisdom. If, in our conversation, he senses that I may be a little down, discouraged, or have a concern, he will have prayer with me before I leave. He's done this so many times but it still brings me to tears and at the same time, floods my heart with peace. It's as though the gates of heaven open right up when my Daddy prays. And, it doesn't hurt that he has one of the best voices in the world! I hate to even think of my earthly life without his prayers. ~sigh~\nKatie Clooney October 25, 2017 at 7:40 AM\nSounds like you have some busy weeks ahead of you, Lea. We have the same taste in Tv. Haven't watched the Menendez Brothers yet but it's being taped. I think that you are smart to get a second opinion. A second opinion saved my daughter's life. Enjoy Branson!!\nYou talking about your sweet daddy just nearly had me in tears. Daddy's are the best. I hope you'll get the reassurance you need about your eyes. That's a scary feeling, I'm sure. I bet Branson will be gorgeous this time of year and you'll surely be in the Christmas spirit after seeing shows. (I want to visit Branson some day) I dread wrapping packages too. Mostly because the older I get the harder it is to sit on the floor for so long without getting stiff. I'm so happy I got to read your first What's Up Wednesday. Hope you are having a marvelous week! XOXO\nYour daddy is so precious and I willmake a point To be thinking of you in the days leading g up and on December 1. I can only imagine how difficult it is for both you and your dad. I love how he still lights up the heart of you, his little girl! You've had some great fun with these trips! Glad you're getting a second opinion! Have a wonderful Wednesday pretty lady!\nI switched from gift wrap to the decorated gift boxes you can buy at Michael's, AC Moore, or Hobby Lobby. The designs are beautiful, they come in all shapes and sizes, and best of all, are reusable.\nNanaDiana October 25, 2017 at 10:40 AM\nOh Boy! Glad to know I am not alone when it comes to the gift wrapping thing. I used to LOVE to wrap packages and dress them all up...not so much anymore. Maybe I am just lazier as I get older? lol\nI am so glad you still have your dad. That is wonderful! My own dad died when I was 21 and it was like a light went out in my life. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him at some point.\nGood luck with the eye specialist. I am with you- no distance is too great to travel to ensure your eyes are okay.\nI'm so glad you have your Dad around to pray over you and to visit with. I am close to my parents and can not imagine life without either one of them. I know it's inevitable, but I pray for many, many more years, as I don't think we ever get to the point where we don't need them. Hugs to you!\nDebby Ray October 25, 2017 at 5:02 PM\nYou are a busy girl, Lea! I was looking for you on the Hodgepodge today but this is fun too. I am glad that you finally got on the K-LOVE wagon! There is no Christian radio station like it...encouraging and uplifting for sure. I saw Jan this week and she said that your sweet dad had called her and Terrell a couple of times recently. I still think that connection is the coolest thing! Enjoy the rest of your week...HUGS!\nYou are a busy lady Lea, I so enjoyed reading these facts, you are so right our mothers are always interested in our lives, I am blessed to have my mother still with us, but lost my Dad 20+yrs. ago, and miss him sooooo much, he and I had such a special relationship, I could talk to him about anything.\nI will be praying for your eye situation and ask the Lord to help find the right dr. for you.\nMy daughter loves K-Love.\nMarilyn @ MountainTopSpice October 25, 2017 at 11:16 PM\nI just happened upon your blog Lea, and I'm so thankful I did! Your story about your dad brought tears to my eyes, what a precious relationship you have with him and how wonderful that he prays with you each time, such a blessing! I would definitely get a second opinion as well on your eyes, truly go and do it. My grandmother suffers from macular degeneration, and loss of her eyesight has been such a debilitating thing for her. Anything to save your eyes is worth it! Enjoyed your sharing today, and pray you have a blessed weekend with the family visiting, and your trip to Branson next week is full of fun, and lots of great fall colors!\nCreations By Cindy October 26, 2017 at 7:50 AM\nAwe, sounds like such a precious time with your sweet daddy. That just melted my heart. Are you enjoying Finding I am? I've had several ladies tell me it was very good. Yes, K-Love is the best! I don't blame you for getting another opinion. My granny who is now with the Lord had a rare eye disease that she became legally blind and of course her eyesight continued to go down hill.

        "raw_content": "Previous: Chapter V. Wherein Opposites Agree\nNext: Chapter VII. Sufficient Unto Themselves\nChapter VI. Breaking the News\nOld John Bannister returned that night. Learning from Bailey's trembling lips the tremendous events that had been taking place in his absence, he was first irritated, then coldly amused. His coolness dampened, while it comforted, Bailey.\nA bearer of sensational tidings likes to spread a certain amount of dismay and terror; but, on the other hand, it was a relief to him to find that his father appeared to consider trivial a crisis which, to Bailey, had seemed a disaster without parallel in the annals of American social life.\n\"She said she was going to marry him!\"\nOld Bannister opened the nut-cracker mouth that always had the appearance of crushing something. His pale eyes glowed for an instant.\n\"Did she?\" he said.\n\"She seemed very--ah--determined.\"\n\"Did she!\"\nSilence falling like a cloud at this point, Bailey rightly conjectured that the audience was at an end and left the room. His father bit the end off a cigar and began to smoke.\nSmoking, he reviewed the situation, and his fighting spirit rose to grapple with it. He was not sorry that this had happened. His was a patriarchal mind, and he welcomed opportunities of exercising his authority over his children. It had always been his policy to rule them masterfully, and he had often resented the fact that his daughter, by the nature of things, was to a great extent outside his immediate rule.\nDuring office hours business took him away from her. The sun never set on his empire over Bailey, but it needed a definite crisis like the present one to enable him to jerk at the reins which guided Ruth, and he was glad of the chance to make his power felt.\nThe fact that this affair brought him into immediate contact with Mrs. Porter added to his enjoyment. Of all the people, men or women, with whom his business or social life had brought him into conflict, she alone had fought him squarely and retired with the honours of war. When his patriarchal mind had led him to bully his late wife, it was Mrs. Porter who had fought her cause. It was Mrs. Porter who openly expressed her contempt for his money and certain methods of making it. She was the only person in his immediate sphere over whom he had no financial hold.\nHe was a man who liked to be surrounded by dependents, and Mrs. Porter stoutly declined to be a dependent. She moved about the world, blunt and self-sufficing, and he hated her as he hated no one else. The thought that she had now come to grips with him and that he could best her in open fight was pleasant to him. All his life, except in his conflicts with her, he had won. He meant to win now.\nBailey's apprehensions amused him. He had a thorough contempt for all actors, authors, musicians, and artists, whom he classed together in one group as men who did not count, save in so far as they gave mild entertainment to the men who, like himself, did count. The idea of anybody taking them seriously seemed too fantastic to be considered.\nOf affection for his children he had little. Bailey was useful in the office, and Ruth ornamental at home. They satisfied him. He had never troubled to study their characters. It had never occurred to him to wonder if they were fond of him. They formed a necessary part of his household, and beyond that he was not interested in them. If he had ever thought about Ruth's nature, he had dismissed her as a feminine counterpart of Bailey, than whom no other son and heir in New York behaved so exactly as a son and heir should.\nThat Ruth, even under the influence of Lora Delane Porter, should have been capable of her present insubordination, was surprising, but the thing was too trivial to be a source of anxiety. The mischief could be checked at once before it amounted to anything.\nBailey had not been gone too long before Ruth appeared. She stood in the doorway looking at him for a moment. Her face was pale and her eyes bright. She was breathing quickly.\n\"Are you busy, father? I--I want to tell you something.\"\nJohn Bannister smiled. He had a wintry smile, a sort of muscular affection of the mouth, to which his eyes contributed nothing. He had made up his mind to be perfectly calm and pleasant with Ruth. He had read in novels and seen on the stage situations of this kind, where the father had stormed and blustered. The foolishness of such a policy amused him. A strong man had no need to behave like that.\n\"I think I have heard it already,\" he said. \"I have just been seeing Bailey.\"\n\"What did Bailey tell you, father?\"\n\"That you fancied yourself in love with some actor or artist or other whose name I have forgotten.\"\n\"It is not fancy. I do love him.\"\n\"Are you very angry, father?\"\n\"Why should I be? Let's talk it over quietly. There's no need to make a tragedy of it.\"\n\"I'm glad you feel like that, father.\"\nJohn Bannister lit another cigar.\n\"Tell me all about it,\" he said.\nRuth found herself surprisingly near tears. She had come into the room with every nerve in her body braced for a supreme struggle. Her father's unexpected gentleness weakened her, exactly as he had foreseen. The plan of action which he had determined upon was that of the wrestler who yields instead of resisting, in order to throw an antagonist off his balance.\n\"How did it begin?\" he asked.\n\"Well,\" said Ruth, \"it began when Aunt Lora took me to his studio.\"\n\"Yes, I heard that it was she who set the whole thing going. She is a friend of this fellow-what is his name?\"\n\"Kirk Winfield. Yes, she seemed to know him quite well.\"\nIn spite of her anxiety, Ruth smiled.\n\"Well, that's all,\" she said. \"I just fell in love with him.\"\nMr. Bannister nodded.\n\"You just fell in love with him,\" he repeated. \"Pretty quick work, wasn't it?\"\n\"I suppose it was.\"\n\"You just took one look at him and saw he was the affinity, eh?\"\n\"And what did he do? Was he equally sudden?\"\nRuth laughed. She was feeling quite happy now.\n\"He would have liked to be, poor dear, but he felt he had to be cautious and prepare the way before telling me. If it hadn't been for Bailey, he might be doing it still. Apparently, Bailey went to him and said I had said I was going to marry him, and Kirk came flying round, and--well, then it was all right.\"\nMr. Bannister drew thoughtfully at his cigar. He was silent for a few moments.\n\"Well, my dear,\" he said at last. \"I think you had better consider the engagement broken off.\"\nRuth looked at him quickly. He still smiled, but his eyes were cold and hard. She realized suddenly that she had been played with, that all his kindliness and amiability had been merely a substitute for the storm which she had expected. After all, it was to be war between them, and she braced herself for it!\n\"Father!\" she cried.\nMr. Bannister continued to puff serenely at his cigar.\n\"We needn't get worked up about it,\" he said. \"Let's keep right on talking it over quietly.\"\n\"Very well,\" said Ruth. \"But, after what you have just said, what is there to talk over?\"\n\"You might be interested to hear my reasons for saying it.\"\n\"And I will argue my side.\"\nMr. Bannister waved his hand gently.\n\"You don't have to argue. You just listen.\"\nRuth bit her lip.\n\"In the first place,\" said her father, \"about this young man. What is he? Bailey says he is an artist. Well, what has he ever done? Why don't I know his name? I buy a good many pictures, but I don't remember ever signing a cheque for one of his. I read the magazines now and then, but I can't recall seeing his signature to any of the illustrations. How does he live, anyway, without going into the question of how he intends to support a wife?\"\n\"Aunt Lora told me he had private means.\"\n\"Five thousand dollars a year.\"\n\"Exactly the amount necessary to let him live without working. I have him placed now. I know his type. I could show you a thousand men in this city in exactly the same position. They don't starve and they don't work. This young man of yours is a loafer.\"\nRuth's voice was quiet, but a faint colour had crept into her face and her eyes were blazing.\n\"Now perhaps you would care to hear what I think of his principles. How do you feel that he comes out of this business? Does he show to advantage? Isn't there just a suspicion of underhandedness about his behaviour?\"\n\"No? He lets you pay these secret visits----\"\nRuth interrupted.\n\"There was nothing secret about them--to him. Aunt Lora brought me to the studio in the first place, and she kept on bringing me. I don't suppose it ever occurred to Kirk to wonder who I was and who my father might be. He has been perfectly straight. If you like to say I have been underhanded, I admit it. I have. More so than you imagine. I just wanted him, and I didn't care for anything except that.\"\n\"It did not strike you that you owed anything to me, for instance?\"\n\"I should have thought that, as your father, I had certain claims.\"\nRuth was silent.\nMr. Bannister sighed.\n\"I thought you were fond of me, Ruth,\" he said wistfully. It was the wrestler yielding instead of resisting. Ruth's hard composure melted instantly. She flung her arms round his neck in a burst of remorseful affection.\n\"Of course I am, father dear. You're making this awfully hard for me.\"\nMr. Bannister chuckled inwardly. It seemed to him that victory was in sight. He always won, he told himself, always.\n\"I only want you to be sensible.\"\nRuth stiffened at the word. It jarred upon her. She felt that they were leagues apart, that they could never be in sympathy with each other.\n\"Father,\" she said.\n\"Would you like to see Kirk?\"\n\"I have been wondering when he was going to appear on the scene. I always thought it was customary on these occasions for the young man to present himself in person, and not let the lady fight his battles for him. Is this Mr. Winfield a little deficient in nerve?\"\nRuth flushed angrily.\n\"I particularly asked Kirk not to come here before I had seen you. I insisted on it. Naturally, he wanted to.\"\nThere was a sneer in his voice which he did not try to hide. It flicked Ruth like a whip. Her painfully preserved restraint broke up under it.\n\"Do you think Kirk is afraid of you, father?\"\n\"It crossed my mind.\"\n\"I have only your word for it.\"\n\"You can have his if you want it. There is the telephone. You can have him here in ten minutes if you want to see him.\"\n\"A very good idea. But, as it happens, I do not want to see him. There is no necessity. His views on this matter do not interest me. I----\"\nThere was a hurried knock at the door. Bailey burst in, ruffled and wild as to the eyes.\n\"Father,\" he cried, \"I don't want to interrupt you, but that infernal woman, Aunt Lora, has arrived, and says she won't go till she has seen you. She's downstairs now.\"\n\"Not now,\" said Lora Delane Porter, moving him to one side and entering the room. \"I thought it would be a comfort to you, Ruth, to have me with you to help explain exactly how matters stand. Good evening, John. Go away, Bailey. Now let us discuss things quietly.\"\n\"She is responsible for the whole thing, father,\" cried Bailey.\nMr. Bannister rose.\n\"There is nothing to discuss,\" he said shortly. \"I have no wish to speak to you at all. As you appear to have played a large part in this affair, I may as well tell you that it is settled. Ruth will not marry Mr. Winfield.\"\nLora Delane Porter settled herself comfortably in a chair. She drew off her gloves and placed them on the table.\n\"Please ask that boy Bailey to go,\" she said. \"He annoys me. I cannot marshal my thoughts in his presence.\"\nQuelled by her eye, Bailey removed himself. His father remained standing. Ruth, who had risen at her aunt's entry, sat down again. Mrs. Porter looked round the room with some approval.\n\"You have a nice taste in pictures, John,\" she said. \"That is a Corot, surely, above the mantelpiece?\"\n\"Will you----\"\n\"But about this little matter. You dislike the idea of Ruth marrying Mr. Winfield? Have you seen Mr. Winfield?\"\n\"Then how can you possibly decide whether he is a fit husband for Ruth?\"\n\"I know all about him.\"\n\"What Ruth has told me. That he is a loafer who pretends to be an artist.\"\n\"He is a poor artist. I grant you that. His drawing is weak. But are you aware that he is forty-three inches round the chest, six feet tall, and in perfect physical condition?\"\n\"What has that got to do with it?\"\n\"Everything. You have not read my 'Principles of Selection'?\"\n\"I will send you a copy to-morrow.\"\n\"I will burn it directly it arrives.\"\n\"Then you will miss a great deal of valuable information,\" said Mrs. Porter tranquilly.\nThere was a pause. John Bannister glared furiously at Mrs. Porter, but her gaze was moving easily about the room, taking in each picture in turn in a leisurely inspection.\nAn exclamation from Ruth broke the silence, a sharp cry like that of an animal in pain. She sprang up, her face working, her eyes filled with tears.\n\"I can't stand it!\" she cried. \"I can't stand it any longer! Father, Kirk and I were married this afternoon.\"\nMrs. Porter went quickly to her and put her arm round her. Ruth was sobbing helplessly. The strain had broken her. John Bannister's face was leaden. The veins stood out on his forehead. His mouth twisted dumbly.\nMrs. Porter led Ruth gently to the door and pushed her out. Then she closed it and turned to him.\n\"So now you know, John,\" she said. \"Well, what are you going to do about it?\"\nSelf-control was second nature with John Bannister. For years he had cultivated it as a commercial asset. Often a fortune had depended on his mastery of his emotions. Now, in an instant, he had himself under control once more. His face resumed its normal expression of cold impassiveness. Only his mouth twitched a little.\n\"Well?\" asked Mrs. Porter.\n\"Take her away,\" he said quietly. \"Take her out of here. Let her go to him. I have done with her.\"\n\"I suppose so,\" said Mrs. Porter, and left the room.",

        "raw_content": "Return Time Plots \u203a\nWhat are Return Time Plots?\nReturn time plots are a way of graphically representing the most extreme events in a big sample of data, such as weather data or river flows. These types of plot are a convenient way to look closely at the \u201ctail\u201d of a distribution, which is hard to see in detail when you plot the data in a more familiar way, such as in a histogram, where your attention is drawn to the middle of the distribution.\nThe \u201creturn time\u201d of an event, also known as the \u201creturn period\u201d or \u201crecurrence interval\u201d, is the likelihood of an event occurring, defined by a particular variable exceeding a certain threshold in a certain time interval. For example, you would say an extreme flood had occurred if rainfall exceeded 350mm during the winter season.\nWhat does each dot represent?\nFinal results from the weather@home 2014: UK Flooding Experiment,\nshowing nearly 40,000 models results: each dot represents one model\nIn weather@home experiments, each dot on the plot represents a single model simulation which has been run on a participant\u2019s computer. We run tens of thousands of model simulations, which are identical to each other except for their starting conditions, which are varied slightly. These slight differences result in a different outcome in each model for the risk of certain events.\nOur weather@home experiments are designed to answer the question: did climate change have an effect on the likelihood of this extreme weather event occurring? They involve comparing two sets of models \u2013 one with climate change and one in a \u201cworld that might have been\u201d without climate change, which is why there are two colours of dots on these graphs, representing these two sets of models.\nWhen these model simulations are put together to form large ensembles, we can look at the average risk for that particular event. We plot all the individual models on one graph and you can see the curve that emerges, which represents the range of results from the entire ensemble:\nIf you look at a plot of just a small number of model simulations, and compare it to a plot with tens of thousands, you can see why it\u2019s so important to run these large ensembles of models if you want to get clear, statistically significant results:\nComparison of results from the weather@home 2014: UK Flooding Experiment\nwith just a few models (left) and tens of thousands of models (right)\nWhat does the x-axis along the bottom mean?\nThe x-axis tells us the chance of an event occurring in a given year, such a seasonal rainfall, exceeding a particular threshold. With extreme weather events, we tend to talk about \u201c1 in 10 year events\u201d, which occur quite frequently. The chance of such an event occurring is 1 in 10, or 10%, in any given year.\nThe further you go to the right of the plot, the rarer the events get, all the way up to \u201c1 in 1000 year events\u201d, which are very rare, having a 0.1% chance of occurring in a given year.\nThe phrase \u201c1 in 100 year event\u201d does not mean that an event will occur exactly every 100 years, but that the probability is that it will occur once every 100 years.\nThe x-axis is logarithmic, which means that each number is 10 times bigger than the last (for example 10, 100, 1000), rather than there being the same distance between each (for example 10, 20, 30). This logarithmic scale lets us show a wide range of values more clearly in a single plot.\nWhat does the y-axis up the side mean?\nThe y-axis shows the magnitude of the weather event in the form of a threshold. In this example, looking at high rainfall, the y-axis shows the total rainfall during a particular season that exceeded a threshold.\nA low rainfall value, such as a winter with only 100mm or more of rain, would be a normal winter in the UK, which does not lead to widespread flooding.\nA rainy season, which exceeded 350mm of rain, would be a \u201c1 in 100 year event\u201d and will have led to extreme flooding.\nWhy are some graphs the other way up?\nWhen you are looking at the risk of flooding, you are interested in whether rainfall is more than a certain threshold. It\u2019s very likely to exceed a low threshold but increasingly unlikely to exceed a high threshold. This explains why the curve on return time plots for flood risk increase from left to right \u2013 more than 100mm of rain falls almost every year (1/1) but more than 350mm of rain only happens 1/1000 years or less.\nFor drought risk, on the other hand, you are interested in how low the rainfall is. So, it\u2019s very likely that you will get less than a large amount of rain \u2013 less than 800mm of rain will occur almost every year \u2013 but it\u2019s very unlikely that you will get less than 100mm of rain \u2013 this might occur only once every 100 years (1/100):\nHow can we use Return Time Plots to understand the influence of climate change?",

        "raw_content": "Long-stemmed Pansies: Who Knew?\nBy Kathy Purdy December 21, 2005 \u2013 Posted in: Plant info\nJudy, how did you ever even know there were such things as pansies with long stems suitable for cutting? I always thought short-stemmed pansies were just the way they were, though, come to think of it, I have seen rather leggy Johnny-jump-ups, and they are near kin.\nRundy the Northeast Cowboy\nIt\u2019s the little things that bug me\nAlice December 28, 2005, 11:42 pm\nKathy \u2013 where I live is about 2000 feet above sea level and 2 hours drive inland from the east coast (Pacific Ocean). Winters in Canberra are generally fairly dry, with about 30 frosts in the season. A frosty morning will usually be about -2 degrees, but can go down to minus 5 or 6. If we have a frost then we almost invariably have a fine, sunny day with clear blue sky. The frost will melt by about 9.00am and the afternoon temp may reach 13 degrees. The Snowy Mountains, which includes Australia\u2019s highest peak Mt Kosciusko (2228metres) are about 3 hours drive south of Canberra. It\u2019s our major snow skiing resort but we rarely get snow in Canberra although it can be seen on the surrounding hills from time to time. We can, in fact, work in the garden most days of the year \u2013 a few days are a bit too cold and a few in the summer are a bit too hot (like today). This weekend is forecast to be 38 degrees.\nWe were out early this morning spreading mulch on the gardens in an attempt to retain the moisture, and we\u2019ll continue this evening when it cools down a bit. I would have had it done earlier in the season but there was so much stuff that needed pulling out or cutting back that I just didn\u2019t get it done.\nKathy Purdy December 28, 2005, 5:07 pm\nThat\u2019s about 92F! Do you enjoy reading about snow and cold at this time of the year? I know I enjoy reading Texas garden blogs, and seeing their flowers blooming when we have snow on the ground. How cold does it get during your winter season?\nAlice December 27, 2005, 2:27 pm\nKathy \u2013 I have been gardening for more than 50 years but I didn\u2019t know there was such a thing as long-stemmed pansies. However, I grew up on a dairy farm in Victoria, Australia, and during my teen years I worked the gardens at home. My brother had trucks and carted cattle. Three times a week he would clean the straw and manure off the decks of the trucks into a big heap. After a few months I would cart barrowloads of this straw/manure compost to the gardens and spread it about 6 inches deep. The plants loved it \u2013 all except the Australian Native plants, and I didn\u2019t like them much anyway, then. The pansies were huge and always had large flowers and strong stems 6\u2033-8\u2033 long. They could be picked for the vase just like any other flower. I don\u2019t remember the variety of pansy, although some of them may well have been Swiss Giants as they have been around for many, many years.\nI\u2019ve only just discovered your site so I\u2019m looking forward to reading more. I must go and do some more work outside now before it gets too hot. Forecast of 33C degrees for today.\nI don\u2019t think you\u2019re any older than I am, but my mom wasn\u2019t growing much in the way of flowers when I was a child. (I was the oldest of seven; that might have something to do with it.) I\u2019ll be keeping my eye out for Swiss Giants.\nJudy Miller December 22, 2005, 11:14 am\nIt\u2019s my advanced age.\nPansies always used to be long-stemmed; memories from my childhood are of pansies about 6-8\u2033 high, and of picking them for bouquets. Breeding, especially in the past 10-15 years or so, has increasingly focused on \u2018upfacing\u2019 (read: no stem, or incredibly short peduncle, the stem between the main body of the pansy and the flower) and \u2018compact\u2019 as the two major attributes.\nIn fact if you read reports from pansy trials, long-stemmedness is a demerit. Whereas, if you read pansy & viola judging details from the UK\u2019s National Pansy & Viola Society, long-stemmedness is a virtue. (This centered text is a pain! I\u2019ll look into it.)\nI think the breeders went for no-neck so that flats of pansies on the shelf in stores would be full of color no-one had to stoop to see\u2013a form of 55-mph gardening which is totally ridiculous for the home gardener. Though, if you\u2019re breeding for the gardener who just wants color and doesn\u2019t want to ever touch or smell their flowers, one step up from astroturfing the yard, I suppose it\u2019s ok.\nSwiss Giants is one of the remaining varieties with long enough stems for cutting (but not \u2018Majestic Giants\u2019\u2013they are blobbettes) and can be found in mixed and separate colors.",

        "raw_content": "9mobile Loses More Market Share as it Awaits New Owner\nNigerian mobile operator, which is waiting for a new owner to be approved by the country's authorities, is losing customers and market share despite overall market growth, according to the latest statistics from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC).\n9mobile, formerly Etisalat Nigeria, is in ownership limbo as it waits to hear which of the two shortlisted bidders is given the go-ahead to take control of the operator. (See Teleology in Driving Seat to Buy 9mobile.)\nWith so much uncertainty surrounding the company, it is losing customers and market share. 9mobile ended 2017 with 16.995 million customers, down from 17.075 million at the end of November and down considerably from the 20.809 million it had at the start of 2017, before its ownership troubles began. (See Nigeria's 9mobile Open to New Investors.)\nThat end-of-year figure gives 9mobile a market share of 11.7%.\nIts rivals, though, are all growing, as is the overall market. The total number of mobile users at the end of 2017 was 144.632 million, up from 141.9 million at the end of November 2017.\nMarket leader MTN Nigeria added more than 800,000 new customers during December to end the year with 52.273 million customers and a market share of 36.15%.\nGlobacom, which has shown some early interest in acquiring 9mobile only to drop out late in the bidding process, added more than 700,000 customers during December and ended 2017 with 38.170 million customers and a market share of 26.4%.\nAirtel Nigeria added 1.29 million customers in the final month of last year to end 2017 with 37.234 million customers and a market share of almost 25.8%.\n9mobile will want its ownership situation to be resolved as soon as possible so that it can announce a new strategy and restore market faith that it has a long-term future, as it's clear that its current situation is resulting in customer churn that is only benefitting its rivals.",

        "raw_content": "All For Darcy Release Ordinary Life Music Video\nAll for Darcy came into existence when good mates Pete Atkinson and Sam Hickey played music at a Mt. Lilydale footy function. The two then started working on songs together, which Pete had been writing about his son Darcy Atkinson, who passed away in 2012 in unclear circumstances. Pete and Sam realised that the songs were more than just an emotional outlet with a rapidly growing fan base. Ordinary Life is the featured single from All For Darcy\u2019s debut EP Too Beautiful for Earth.\nOrdinary Life tells a true story about life\u2019s changes. \u201cIt\u2019s real, one day you\u2019re in a happy simple routine and the next all hell can break loose without any notice. The song is written to be uplifting to the listener who may be pushing through a tough time just as I have been through.\u201d Peter says.\nAll for Darcy formed in 2016 when Peter (Songwriter) was given the opportunity to record songs at Sing Sing studios. Peter had uploaded a song on Facebook written for his son Darcy Atkinson who passed away in 2012 whilst in the care of Darcy's mothers, then boyfriend.\nThe song was then heard by some good friends in Temper Trap who contacted Peter with the idea that he should professionally record his song with their producer and friend, Russell Fawcus at Sing Sing Studios in Cremorne. Peter took his chance and with good friend Sam (Drums), they arranged the songs with producer Russell and recorded the Too Beautiful for Earth. Peter and Sam were proud of what they had achieved and were keen to start a band and call it All for Darcy.\nA chance meeting led to the skills of Danny Lilly who joined the band on bass guitar. The songs were now ready hit the stage. The boys had been searching for a guitarist to complete the line-up, fortunately a young strapping lad named Brett LeMin was in the crowd on their first gig. Brett joined the band, completing the line up and solidifying the iconic All for Darcy sound. All for Darcyexploded into the Victorian music scene dominating the battle of the bands and bring a positive energy to every stage they grace.\nThe band have a 90s rock sound, taking influence from the Goo Goo Dolls, Oasis and Jebediah. All for Darcy aim for their music to be uplifting for people to listen to, to bring hope to those who need it and also to highlight the importance of children\u2019s welfare in broken families.\nThe group are now busy with shows at Geelong and Melbourne venues and recently won the Geelong battle of the bands in 2017. All for Darcy are now ready to launch their EP and are due to be back in the studio this year to record more songs.\nAll for Darcy want to raise awareness and be a voice for fathers who don\u2019t have access to their children because of a biased unjust legal system.\nFor Fans Of: Goo Goo Dolls | Jebediah\nFriday 25th May - BLACK HATT in Geelong\nSaturday 2nd June - THE PALACE HOTEL in Camberwell\n\u2018Ordinary Life\u2019 will be in Digital Stores on the 4th of May.\nThe \u2018Too Beautiful For Earth\u2019 EP by ALL FOR DARCY will be released 18th of May\nwww.facebook.com/All-For-Darcy-1206057149491899",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb FAQs \u00bb Truck Accidents \u00bb How often are trucks inspected?\nMedium and heavy-duty trucks, semi-trucks and utility trailers, use the roads of Pennsylvania to carry and transport goods throughout the year. Because of the size of trucks and their potential ability to develop problems, large trucks are subjected to inspections.\nHow often are truck inspections performed?\nAll large trucks and semi-trailers must be inspected once yearly to be in compliance with Pennsylvania laws. According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration section 396.17, federal law also requires that all commercial vehicles undergo an annual inspection. If a vehicle fails an inspection, it is not allowed to operate until the cause of the failure is corrected.\nWhat things are inspected on a truck?\nThe inspection requirements for medium and heavy-duty trucks vs. semi-trucks and utility trailers are slightly different. For the former, the things that are required to be inspected include the items listed below.\nSteering and braking systems\nWipers and windshield washers\nDefrosters\nHorns and warning devices\nBody of the truck\nOn semi-trucks and utility trailers, the following components of a truck must be inspected, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Motor Vehicles.\nLighting and electrical systems\nWhat happens if a truck fails inspections?\nIt is not uncommon for a large truck or commercial vehicle to fail inspections. If failure of inspections occurs, then the reason for the failure must be corrected. If the owner of the commercial vehicle fails to have the component that caused the failure corrected, and to then pursue a re-inspection, the trucking company or owner may be subjected to a fine.\nWho\u2019s at fault in an accident caused by a problem with a large truck?\nWhen a large truck causes an accident that results in severe injuries for other drivers or passengers involved, the issue of liability for the truck accident is brought into question. Negligence is often considered in order to prove liability.Negligence refers to the inappropriate or irresponsible actions of the person at fault for the accident.\nOftentimes, driver errors are the cause of an accident.\nDistraction (on a cell phone, texting, eating)\nIntoxication (alcohol, illicit drugs, and over-the-counter meds)\nAggression (speeding, tailgating)\nIn cases such as these, the driver (or the trucking company) may be liable. In the case that the accident was caused by a defective vehicle part that was improperly inspected, the company who failed to administer an inspection appropriately may be liable. If the trucking company failed to pursue an inspection, this may be considered negligent behavior that directly contributed to the accident.\nDo I need an attorney following an accident involving a large truck?\nIf you or a loved one has been in an accident that involved a large truck, you may be wondering whether or not you need legal help.\nIf the accident resulted in injuries, an attorney can be essential in helping you recover the damages you deserve for your or your family member.\nIf a family member was killed in a truck accident caused by someone else\u2019s negligence, an attorney can help you recover wrongful death benefits.\nAt Cordisco & Saile LLC, our attorneys understand how much a truck accident can affect your physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing. If you think that someone else\u2019s negligence caused your truck accident, our attorneys can help you prove negligence and liability. Call us today at 215-642-2335 to speak with one of our attorneys now, and get started on proving negligence and determining liability today.",

        "raw_content": "https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-11-21/opec-s-worst-nightmare-the-permian-is-about-to-pump-a-lot-more\nTotal U.S. production rising at fastest pace in 98 years\nPipeline bottleneck in Texas set to ease by end of 2019\nThe map lays out OPEC\u2019s nightmare in graphic form.\nThe growth was possible because oil traders decided not to be stymied by the dearth of pipelines. They used rail cars and even trucks to ship barrels out of the region. But pipeline companies unexpectedly increased capacity, in part because they added chemicals known as \u201cdrag reduction agents\u2019\u2019 to increase flow. A new pipeline came online earlier than anticipated, and with three more expected between August and December next year, production is poised to soar.\n\u201cThe narrative has shifted significantly,\u2019\u2019 said John Coleman, a Houston-based oil consultant at Wood Mackenzie Ltd. \u201cSix months ago, the market expected the bottleneck to ease in the first quarter of 2020. Now, it expects it in the second to third quarter of 2019.\u2019\u2019\nKnowing that more transportation would be available next year, Permian companies are drilling wells but, for now, aren\u2019t fracking many of them. Those wells are becoming a reservoir of ready-to-tap production once the new pipelines -- Gray Oak, Cactus II and Epic -- come online.\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to see a re-acceleration of well completions in the Permian in the second half of 2019,\u2019\u2019 said Corey Prologo, head of oil trading in Houston at commodity merchant Trafigura Group Ltd. \u201cThe pipelines are going to fill up very quickly.\u2019\u2019\nThe only obstacle for another surge is export capacity, as most of the incremental output will need to ship overseas. With terminals nearly full, Permian barrels could end piling up in the ports of Corpus Christi and Houston.\nTransportation Bottlenecks\nEven so, few in Houston, or in Midland, Texas, the hub of the Permian region, believe that growth will be anything but gangbusters next year because of the clearing of transportation bottlenecks.\n\u201cIt will be a series of events throughout 2019 that occur,\u2019\u2019 said Jeff Miller, chief executive officer of Halliburton Co., the world\u2019s biggest provider of fracking services. \u201cBut it\u2019d be easy to see, as we finish the year, things being perfectly normal.\u201d\nBy the end of 2019, total U.S. oil production -- including so-called natural gas liquids used in the petrochemical industry -- is expected to rise to 17.4 million barrels a day, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. At that level, American net imports of petroleum will fall in December 2019 to 320,000 barrels a day, the lowest since 1949, when Harry Truman was in the White House. In the oil-trading community, the expectation is that, perhaps for just a single week, the U.S. will become a net oil exporter, something that hasn\u2019t happened for nearly 75 years.\nSaudis Concede\nSaudi officials concede that the tsunami is coming. OPEC estimates that to balance the market and avoid an increase in oil inventories, it needs to pump about 31.5 million barrels a day next year, or about 1.4 million barrels a day less than what it did in October.\nGlobal oil demand has so far absorbed the extra U.S. crude barrels, limiting the impact on prices. The loss of output from Venezuela and to a lesser extent, Iran, even allowed Saudi Arabia, Russia and a few others to boost production. But for the cartel, U.S. shale remains as intractable as in the past.\nIn early 2017, Khalid Al-Falih, the Saudi oil minister, told an industry forum that Riyadh has learned the lesson that cutting production \u201cin response to structural shifts is largely ineffective.\u2019\u2019 The kingdom would only make one-time supply adjustments to react to \u201cshort-term aberrations,\u201d he said, and otherwise allow \u201cthe free market to work.\u201d\nNearly two years later, Al-Falih has lost enough proverbial sleep. He\u2019s about to make a U-turn. He\u2019ll battle what increasingly looks like a structural problem: booming U.S. production.\n\u2014 With assistance by Kevin Crowley, Catherine Ngai, and Dave Merrill",

This restricts the variety of bitcoins that are actually circulating in the exchanges. Moreover, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Therefore, even the most diligent buyer couldn\u2019t buy all present bitcoins. This situation is just not to imply that markets aren\u2019t exposed to price exploitation, yet there exists no need for substantial amounts of cash to transfer market prices up or down. The smallest occasions on earth market can affect the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency explosive.\nCryptocurrency is freeing people to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in an identical way, but they also take part in more complicated smart contracts. Multiple signatures allow a trade to be supported by the network, but where a certain number of a defined group of folks agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This enables innovative dispute mediation services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could allow a third party to approve or reject a trade in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment procedures, the blockchain always leaves public evidence that a transaction occurred. This can be potentially used in an appeal against businesses with deceptive practices.\nBitcoin is the principal cryptocurrency of the net: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, world-wide, and decentralized. Unlike traditional fiat currencies, there is no governments, banks, or any regulatory agencies. As such, it truly is more resistant to outrageous inflation and tainted banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy hazards. Security and seclusion can easily be attained by just being bright, and following some basic guidelines. You\u2019dn\u2019t set your entire bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fastened by removing any identity of possession from the wallets and therefore keeping you anonymous.\nReverse 3-Up \u2013 What Is TANI Products\nIn the event of a fully-functioning cryptocurrency, it could even be dealt as being a product. Advocates of cryptocurrencies proclaim that kind of digital cash isn\u2019t managed by a fundamental bank system and it is not thus subject to the whims of its inflation. Since there are always a restricted amount of products, this cashis price is founded on market forces, enabling owners to deal over cryptocurrency exchanges.\nCryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have been designed as a non-fiat currency. To put it differently, its backers argue that there\u2019s real worth, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that worth. The worth grows due to computing power, that\u2019s, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU electricity via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time period that is worth an ever diminishing amount of currency or some kind of reward in order to ensure the shortfall. Each coin includes many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, which is part of the block that gave rise to it. The blockchain is where the public record of all trades lives. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.\nThe fact that there\u2019s little evidence of any growth in the use of virtual money as a currency may be the reason why there are minimal attempts to control it. The reason for this could be merely that the market is too small for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory attempt. It is also possible the regulators just do not comprehend the technology and its implications, awaiting any developments to act.\nMining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put into circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to create more. The mining process is what makes more of the coin. It may be useful to think about the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are precisely the same. Mining crypto coins means you\u2019ll get to keep the full benefits of your efforts, but this reduces your chances of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have much greater possibility of solving a block, but the reward will be divided between all members of the pool, depending on the number of shares won.\nIf you are thinking about going it alone, it is worth noting that the applications configuration for solo mining can be more complex than with a pool, and beginners would be likely better take the latter route. This alternative also creates a steady stream of earnings, even if each payment is small compared to entirely block the benefit.\nThe wonder of the cryptocurrencies is that scam was proved an impossibility: because of the character of the protocol where it\u2019s transacted. All transactions over a crypto currency blockchain are irreversible. After you\u2019re paid, you get paid. This isn\u2019t something short term where your visitors could dispute or require a concessions, or use dishonest sleight of palm. In-practice, many merchants would be a good idea to use a transaction processor, due to the irreversible character of crypto currency purchases, you must ensure that protection is difficult. With any type of crypto currency whether it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous additional altcoins, thieves and hackers could potentially gain access to your individual tips and therefore steal your cash. Unfortunately, you almost certainly can never get it back. It\u2019s very important for you to embrace some very good safe and sound techniques when working with any cryptocurrency. Doing this may protect you from most of these unfavorable events.\nWhen searching on the web for what is TANI products, there are many things to think about.\nClick here to visit our home page and learn more about what is TANI products.\nThe physical Internet backbone that carries information between the various nodes of the network has become the work of a number of firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), which includes firms that offer long-distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local pipe, which finally connects in households and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through any of these ISPs, players like level 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private companies, and sometimes by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to move messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with suppliers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for last mile-consumers and businesses who desire to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the data to stream without interruption, in the correct spot at the perfect time.\nWhile none of these organizations owns the Internet collectively these companies decide how it works, and established rules and standards that everyone remains. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that\u2019s taking place to discover how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for example, one needs permission from a Registrar, which includes a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to attach to and with her. Concern over security problems? A working group is formed to work with the issue and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of all parties. If the Internet is down, you might have someone to phone to get it fixed. If the problem is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts set up and service level agreements, which regulate the manner in which these problems are solved.\nThe benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain is not regulated by any focused business. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that\u2019s something that as a devoted supporter badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet works. But as you understand now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works present inherent problems to the consumer. Blockchain technology has none of that.\nYou\u2019ve probably noticed this often times where you frequently spread the great word about crypto. It is not unpredictable? What goes on if the cost accidents? sofar, many POS programs presents free transformation of fiat, alleviating some concern, but before the volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, a lot of people will be reluctant to put on any. We must find a method to struggle the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies.\nEthereum is an incredible cryptocurrency platform, yet, if growth is too fast, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted immediately, Ethereum requests could increase dramatically, and at a rate that exceeds the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the whole platform of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the increasing costs of running distributed programs. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Instability of demand for ether may result in a negative change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based business that could result in business being unable to continue to run or to stop operation.\nIf you are looking for what is TANI products, look no further than T.A.N..\nHybrid Network Marketing \u2013 What Is TANI Products\nIt is definitely possible, but it must have the ability to understand opportunities no matter marketplace behaviour.

Changes in their physical, chemical or biological characteristics may impair the ability of a wetland or riparian area to filter excess sediments and nutrients, causing deterioration of surface water quality. Activities that cause such changes include draining of wetlands for cropland, overgrazing, construction, channelization of adjoining waterways (see hydromodifications), deposition of dredged material and excavation.\nMaintain the ability of wetlands and riparian areas to filter nonpoint source contaminants such as phosphorus and nitrogen.\nPrevent or reduce pollutant loadings to wetlands and riparian areas.\nRestore degraded and preexisting wetland and riparian areas.\nUse vegetated filter strips to reduce the amount of sediment and other pollutants entering adjacent waterbodies.",

Many of the houses on the outskirts are painted in bright colours.\nPhoto By Sergio Pixel\nYou\u2019ll need to get the bus. Here is an up to date bus timetable for the island but the buses tend to come \u201cwithin 20 minutes\u201d or so of when they are meant to (this is Spain, after all!) There are 2 main bus terminals in Las Palmas, Santa Catalina and San Telmo. They\u2019re both pretty central and once you\u2019re there, you can walk or get a taxi to wherever you want to go. It\u2019s fun to just stroll around too. The bus from the south takes between 30 minutes and an hour depending whether the driver thinks he\u2019s Michael Schumacher or not.\nIf you are at the Plaza San Telmo station, there is a very good cafe right outside where you can have a coffee. There are often exhibitions at the weekend. From there, you can walk through the main shopping street (look in the side streets too for some old architecture) until you come to the library. There\u2019s a nice tapas bar there. Keep walking in the same direction across the main road and you will be at the cathedral. If you happen to be in Gran Canaria at Christmas there are many festive displays to enjoy too.\nThe Canary Island Museum is interesting if you want to learn about the indiginous Canarians and how they lived. It\u2019s open on weekdays from 10am until 5pm and weekends from 10am until 2pm. Ask for \u201cMuseo Canario\u201d if you\u2019re in a taxi.\nThe Nestor Museum is quite comprehensive too and you can see plenty of paintings and Canarian handcrafts. This one is \u201cMuseo N\u00e9stor\u201d if you\u2019re in a cab and it\u2019s open Tuesday to Friday from 10am until 1pm and 4pm until 8pm, or from 11am until 2pm on Sundays.\nThe Columbus Museum (Casa Museo de Col\u00f3n) is where Christopher Columbus once spent the night and is the current residence of the Mayor. You can see objects relating to Columbus\u2019s passage through the Canaries. It\u2019s open from 9am until 6pm Monday to Friday and 9am until 3pm at weekends.\nColumbus Museum Photo By Frenz_69\nArt Galleries and the Cathedral\nThe Atlantic Centre for Modern Art (Caam-Centro Atl\u00e1ntico de Arte Moderno) is popular. It is open from Tuesday until Saturday from 10am until 9pm and between 10am and 2pm on Sundays.\nAtlantic Centre for Modern Art Photo By Frenz_69\nThe Santa Ana Cathedral is worth a visit, whether you are interested in the architecture or the art inside. You can visit between 10am and 5pm from Monday to Friday or 9am until 2pm on Saturday.\nCathedral Photo By Ahisgett\nIf you fancy some shopping, there are several big shopping centres, including El Muelle, Las Arenas, La Ballena and Siete Palmas. El Muelle and Las Arenas are probably the best for clothes and Siete Palmas is good for electrical gadgets.\nYou can\u2019t walk very far without coming across a bar (most of which serve tapas), cafe or Canarian cooking restaurant in Las Palmas, so don\u2019t worry \u2013 you won\u2019t go hungry! You\u2019ll find the food and drink much cheaper than in the touristy South too.\nYou might want to spend the day in Las Palmas and do some shopping or see a couple of museums but, to be honest, you could spend several days up there because there is plenty to enjoy!",

        "raw_content": "Home > Transcendent Love\nBertha S\u00e1nchez is a licensed Unity teacher. In addition to leading the youth ministry at Unity en Dominicana [1], she leads Unity: The Revealed Word [2], a church in expansion in the Dominican Republic.\nI grew up going to Catholic school, and although I always felt a deep connection with God, there was a point in my life when I set aside all religious practices. Later, I became familiar with Unity teachings through my mother, Rev. Carmen Fe Figueroa, an ordained Unity minister leading Unity en Dominicana in the Dominican Republic [1].\nBut it was not until 2001 that I decided to end the spiritual limbo I was experiencing and renew my relationship with God. After reading Charles Fillmore\u2019s book, Keep a True Lent [3], I began taking classes to become a licensed Unity teacher. During that time, I learned we are spiritual beings having a human experience and our lives have meaning and purpose.\nThen on July 11, 2004, I received a call that is any mother\u2019s worst nightmare: My youngest son Narayana had died in a car accident at the age of 26. Nothing prepares you for a loss of this magnitude. Mothers are not supposed to outlive their children. It was one of the darkest periods of my life. The pain was unbearable; my heart felt hollow.\nI had always been very close to my three children and respected their individual personalities. Narayana had a fun-loving personality. He had numerous friends, was a great listener, and loved children. He always wanted to be of service, and he gave unconditionally. He also had a great spiritual connection with all life. His approach to life and commitment to living \u201cin the now\u201d amazed me. For some reason, he always knew that his time on earth would be short and often shared that conviction with me.\nIt had been 18 months since Narayana\u2019s passing, when on January 23, 2006, I received yet another unimaginable call to tell me that my oldest son, Govinda, was dead at 28. Another car accident; another son gone.\nGovinda was an introverted young man, but he lived his life with a great sense of purpose. He was a natural leader, very much in charge of his life. He conveyed an aura of freedom and self-assurance. A few years earlier he had decided to move to the United States, which was an example of his adventurous spirit. While pursuing the life of his dreams, his time on earth came to an end.\nWho can recover from this? I asked myself. How am I supposed to continue living?\nI cannot say it has been easy. You recover day by day, minute by minute, holding on to the belief that love is transcendent and life is eternal. Instead of feeding the pain with whys, I remembered the moments I shared and treasured with my sons, and I gave thanks for each precious moment.\nAfter their deaths, I decided to honor them by being a channel of love. I was determined to start loving without boundaries or attachments: To love, not because there is a relationship through blood, but because I chose to establish a relationship through love.\nThat determination led me to start working with the youth in Unity en Dominicana. They welcomed me with open arms and became my children. Together we realized that in sacred service, we live on purpose. We are now a ministry of diverse young people who open every Sunday service by praising God through music and dance. My 25 new children bring great joy into my life.\nIt is through working with the youth and my new ministry, Unity: The Revealed Word [4], that I share the great philosophy of life that is Unity. Through Unity, I have established my life purpose.\nI have been able to overcome the greatest challenge a mother can face through unconditional love, sacred service, and support from family and friends. Looking back, I can see that my two sons were soul mates with intertwined lives. I believe Govinda and Narayana are my greatest teachers: They taught me that love transcends all.\nSource URL: http://www.dailyword.com/articles/2013/05/transcendent-love\n[1] http://unity.org.do/\n[2] http://www.unitylapalabrarevelada.com\n[3] http://shop.unityonline.org/products/B0167\n[4] http://www.unitylapalabrarevelada.com/",

        "title": "Issues in Reckoning Indigenous Content in Defence Procurement",
        "raw_content": "The Defence Procurement Procedure 2016 (DPP 2016) lays a great emphasis on indigenous content (IC) in the equipment it procures under various categories, except for the Buy (Global) category under which fully-formed equipment is bought directly from the foreign vendors. This category does not entail any manufacturing in India, but this disadvantage is made up through offsets. The objective of both these features of the procurement procedure is to promote the defence industry in India. It is difficult to say how far these objectives have been/are being met but ironing out of some procedural complexities that bedevil the industry could arguably produce better results.\nWhat is indigenous content?\nThe word 'indigenous' is not defined in the DPP but etymologically it refers to something originating or occurring naturally in a specific geographical area. This etymology informs the methodology laid down in the DPP to arrive at the IC. The extent of IC is calculated by excluding the following elements from the total cost of the equipment at all stages (tiers) of manufacturing/ production/assembly:\n(a) Direct costs (including freight, transportation and insurance), of all materials, components, sub-assemblies, assemblies, and products imported into India;\n(b) Direct and indirect costs of all services obtained from non-Indian entities/citizens;\n(c) All license fees, royalties, technical fees and other fees/payments of this nature paid out of India, by whatever term/phrase referred to in contracts /agreements made by the vendors/sub-vendors; and\n(d) Taxes, duties, cesses, octroi and other statutory levies in India of this nature.\nThis provision could potentially be circumvented by the vendors by buying foreign-made materials, components, etc. imported into India by a third party and passing them off as indigenously procured material. An elaborate system of reporting is prescribed in DPP 2016 to prevent his. Accordingly, the IC calculated as per the above-mentioned formula is required to be 'reported by all stages (tiers) of manufacturing/production/assembly to their higher stages (tiers)'and all 'stages (tiers) are required to aggregate (the) indigenous content based on certifications and inputs from the lower tiers, as well as on the basis of their own procurement actions and manufacturing activities undertaken'. The 'final aggregation of IC shall be undertaken by the prime (main) contractor with whom an acquisition contract is signed by the Ministry/SHQ'.\nThese DPP further provides that all 'contracts, sub-contracts, agreements and MoUs made by (the) prime (main) contractors (and their lower tier suppliers/vendors) with their business partners/ suppliers, in so far as these contracts, agreements or MoUs relate to the main acquisition contract, shall mandatorily incorporate the right of the Ministry of Defence to conduct an audit\u2026' and 'these business partners/suppliers shall sequentially incorporate these definitions and reporting requirements with their next levels of business partners / suppliers and so on till the lowest tier in the manufacturing / production / assembly chain'.\nSimply stated, what it means is that the agreements signed by each tier with the next lower tier in the value chain will have two clauses: one which binds the lower tier to intimate the extent of IC in the material being supplied by him to the higher tier (calculated as per the above-mentioned formula) and the other which binds the lower tier to provide access to his books of account to the MoD for the purpose of audit, if required.\nMany consider this method of arriving at the indigenous content to be faulty as it places a premium on the monetary value of goods and services of Indian origin used in manufacturing the equipment and not on indigenously developed technology that goes into it. There is some merit in this argument. It is undoubtedly more important from the point of view of strategic autonomy that the technologies that go into manufacturing of defence equipment are indigenous. This will insulate India from becoming the direct or a collateral victim of sanctions often imposed by some of the current technology providing countries. But developing a matrix for incentivising technology development as a part of the IC requirement is a challenge that will have to be met before this seminal change is made in the approach for calculating the IC. Not much effort has been made in this regard. Be that as it may, the method for calculating the IC prescribed in DPP 2016 is not unreasonable, or even cumbersome. The procedural requirements laid down in DPP 2016 to measure the required extent of IC in the final product have, however, made the system complex and painful for the prime contractors.\nComplexities in the provisions related to IC\nThe percentage of IC required in the equipment varies from one procurement category to the other is as follows:\nThe first complexity arises from the fact that the IC is required to be calculated not just with reference to the total value of the contract but also with reference to some individual elements of the overall cost. The DPP 2016 says that apart from the specified overall IC, the same percentage of IC will also be required in the (a) basic cost of the Equipment, (b) cost of the Manufacturers' Recommended List of Spares (MRLS), and (c) cost of the Special Maintenance Tools (SMT) and Special Test Equipment (STE), taken together at all stages, including Field Evaluation Trials (FET) stage.\nThis effectively means that the required overall level of IC must be achieved with the help of only three elements of the overall value, excluding other elements like training, documentation etc, the cost of which is otherwise included in the overall value. A further limitation arises because freight, insurance and custom duty etc. are also not considered as a part of the value added in India. This makes it difficult for the prime vendor to meet the required level of IC, apart from making it administratively cumbersome for the contract officer to ensure compliance.\nThe second issue concerns the requirement of demonstrating the prescribed level of IC in the equipment produced for the FET. It needs to be recalled that the cost of bringing the equipment to the test site and deputing the manpower to participate in the trials is incurred by the vendors. These trials are carried out on no-cost-no-commitment (NCNC) basis. It often takes a long time for the contract to be concluded after the trials are over. As a matter of fact, FET is no guarantee that the contract will be concluded. In any case, not every vendor who produces the equipment for FET can expect to win the contract. In these circumstances, it is unreasonable to expect all vendors to invest in achieving the requisite level of IC in the prototype to be produced for trials.\nThe third issue concerns the Indigenisation Plan that the vendors are required to submit in all Buy (Indian Designed, Developed and Manufactured), Buy (Indian), Buy and Make (Indian) and Buy and Make cases to demonstrate how they propose to meet the specified requirement of IC. It is not clear what does or can the MoD do with this information. There seems to be no use for this information in the MoD. More importantly, submission of a plan could possibly make it difficult for the vendors to refine it as and when required to meet the challenge of achieving the required level of IC. The requirement of submitting the Indigenisation Plan, therefore, appears to be not only unnecessary but also potentially countrer-productive.\nThe fourth issue concerns audit of IC claims, withholding of payments and imposition of penalties. The contract between the MoD and the vendors allows the former to exercise the right to conduct an audit at any stage of manufacturing /production/assembly in respect of any certificate of IC or related cost submitted by the prime vendor or any of his sub-vendors down to the lowest tier. This audit can be carried out by the MoD itself or any institution/agency/officer(s) nominated by it. The ministry does not have the wherewithal to carry out such audits and no guidelines have been evolved either to select outside agencies for this purpose or for the audit parties to carry out the audit in an objective and fair manner.\nAccording to another provision in the DPP, in case 'a particular delivery is deficient in achieving mandatory IC for that stage, an amount of 5% of the cost of that stage delivery shall be withheld from payment for that stage'. It implies that a substantial amount could get withheld even if there is a one per cent deficiency in the IC. The fact that the withheld amount is released if the vendor achieves the mandatory IC on a cumulative basis by the next stage of delivery is of little help as no interest is payable for the duration for which the amount remains withheld.\nThe provision in the DPP for imposition of penalties in the event a false IC certificate is given by a vendor or if he fails to achieve the mandatory IC is particularly harsh. In such cases, MoD can initiate proceedings for banning or suspension of business dealings with the erring vendor and its allied firms for all future contracts for a period up to five years. This right can be exercised by the MoD 'at any point of time', in addition to 'any other action that may be taken/ordered by the Ministry against the erring vendor/sub-vendor under any law(s) in force'. The existing system does not recognise that some genuine unforeseen contingencies could come in the way of achieving the desired level of IC.\nThe issues highlighted above only indicate that the focus of the DPP is more on the regulatory aspect of the policy on IC rather than enabling the vendors to achieve the desired level of IC. Hopefully, the next edition of the DPP will address these concerns pragmatically.\nValue addition & Indigenous Contents\nThe concept of Value addition by IOP in Offset context and Indigenous contents in projects for Indian vendor have been stipulated in DPP and aim is to incentivize Indegenous industry. Accordingly 'value addition in India' for the purpose of discharge of offset obligations, is basic. Since Offset obligations have the perspective of developing the Indian defence industry in respect of the eligible products and services, the Value addition for direct purchase/export of eligible products does not include:\n(i) Value of imported components (i.e.) import content in the product and\n(ii) any fees/royalty paid.\nThe offset contracts and determination of quantum of offset credits are typically subjected to a lot of scrutiny from the MoD and the value of the offset components for which offset credits are sought has to be supported by documentary evidence, as may be required by the relevant government authorities.\nThe definition and method of determination of indigenisation in terms of Indian Value Addition (VA) shall be applicable at program level to all defence procurements, including but not limited to procurements through DRDO, DPSUs, PSUs, Private Industry, Indian Offset Partners (lOP) of Foreign Primes. For this purpose the Taxes and Duties should be separately declared, and paid to domestic Industry at actual whether as prime contractor or as lOP (through the OEM in case of Offsets).\nAny activity which does not add creat capability in Indian Industry has been excluded. The general principle being that only the value addition undertaken by the IOP in India is counted towards offset obligations of the main foreign vendor, while the value of imported components and fees/royalties incurred by the IOP does not count towards the value addition and consequently the offset obligations of the foreign vendor. The diagram below shows the manufacturing process by a subsidiary JV and value addition in electronic item beside other expences it may have to pay. Some of non value adding entities have been shown in Red.\nAs for License fee or technical fee or Brand fee, such manufacture of parts/components cases are under \u201cBuilt to Print\u201d and can not be considered as adding any capability to Indian industry. The supporting documents to claim value addition include submission of a 'Certificate of manufacturing and Value addition duly signed by CFOs of OEM and IOP'.",

        "raw_content": "The Havanese Poodle mix, often called the Havapoo, the Poovanese, the Havadoodle, or the Island Mini Doodle, is a cross between a Poodle and a Havanese. This hybrid is a loveable, adoring dog that is perfect for families or even single individuals looking for a great companion. They\u2019re popular for their charming disposition and adorable looks, and since they\u2019re fairly small dogs, they\u2019re suitable for nearly any housing situation. Of course, before you decide this is the right hybrid for you, take a closer look at their history, temperament, appearance, health, grooming needs, and more.\nThe Havanese Poodle Mix is a hybrid dog that was probably created sometime within the last 10-20 years in the United States. Designer dogs continue to be a very popular trend, particularly with celebrities, and this particular mix has become quite popular and well-known. Although we don\u2019t know a lot about the origins or history of this mixed breed, we can understand the Havapoo a bit more by looking more closely at the parent breeds.\nThe Havanese breed traces back to Cuba, when settlers from Spain brought along small dogs that were bred with the island dogs, creating the Havanese breed. During the 1800s, these dogs became quite popular with richer individuals in Cuba, and eventually they became popular with European nobles as well. Unfortunately, they became less popular by the end of the century and nearly disappeared. The last of this breed was brought to America after 1959 when Cubans began fleeing to America. It has taken decades to reestablish the breed.\nOriginally, the Poodle comes from Germany where it was bred to be a waterfowl hunter and retriever. Through the years, three different sizes were bred, including the Standard, Miniature, and Toy Poodle. All three sizes of Poodles, including the Toy Poodles are considered Poodles. Today they are thought to be one of the smartest dogs, and they\u2019re easy to train and make great companion dogs.\nThe Havanese Poodle Mix is a fairly small dog that generally weighs between 15 and 40 pounds and stands somewhere between 8 and 15 inches tall. Usually they look a lot like the Havanese, but their coat often has the Poodle curl. Their eyes are generally brown, and their coat can be long or medium and curly to wavy. Some of the most common coat colors seen on the Havapoo breed include salt and pepper, black, white, brown, cream, gray, and golden.\nThe Havapoo Temperament\nYou can expect a Havanese Poodle Mix to be very friendly and happy. These dogs are full of energy, they love to play, they\u2019re outgoing, and very smart. They\u2019re also very loving and affectionate, and they prefer to spend plenty of time with the family. Since they are so smart, they tend to be inquisitive and curious by nature. The Havapoo mix is wonderful with kids, particularly because they are so playful, but they may be a better fit for older kids. They do well with other dogs and small animals, although they do need to be socialized early.\nUsually the smart Havanese Poodle Mix is quite easy to train, and they really want to please their master. To make sure training is successful, it\u2019s important to use positive reinforcement. Never be harsh with these dogs. They respond very well to encouragement, positive tones, and praise. You should begin training this hybrid as soon as you bring him home. As long as you\u2019re patient and gentle, your Havapoo will do well with house training, obedience training, and even crate training.\nYou\u2019ll love the fact that the Havanese Poodle Mix sheds very little, so you won\u2019t need to worry about a lot of cleanup. However, you still need to brush their coat several times a week to prevent matting and tangling. Only bathe your Havapoo when needed to avoid drying out the natural oils on their skin. You should check their ears once a week for irritation and infection and they can be wiped clean with a vet-approved ear cleaning solution. It\u2019s also important to brush your dog\u2019s teeth 2-3 times a week to prevent any dental problems and doggie breath. Nails will also need trimmed if they aren\u2019t worn down naturally, and you can learn to do this on your own or simply have it done by a professional groomer.\nThese small dogs are generally not used for any working roles. However, the Havanese Poodle Mix does make a wonderful companion dog for individuals and families.\nThe Poodle has a life expectancy of 12 to 15 years, while the average life expectancy for the Havanese is 14-15 years, so you can expect the Havanese Poodle Mix to have an average life span of between 12 and 15 years. Although these dogs are generally healthier than their parent breeds, it\u2019s possible your Havapoo to end up with some of the health issues of the parent breeds, which may include:\nCategories: Dog Breed Mixes, Havanese Mixes, Poodle Mixes\nHavanese Poodle Mix \u2013 The Havapoo (This Page)",

        "raw_content": "Durable Power Of Attorney Or Living Will\nA Living Will is a legal document addressing only deathbed considerations; a client unilaterally declares his/her desire that life-prolonging measures be discontinued when there is no hope of ultimate recovery.\nOn the other hand, people use a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care to appoint someone to make all healthcare decisions, limited by certain elections regarding deathbed issues.\nThe client must be at least 18 years old and mentally competent at the time he/she executes either document but incompetent to participate in the decision-making process when either is implemented. It is important to remember that both documents are only applicable if the client is incompetent.\nUnder the a Living Will, a client declares that if he/she is certified to have an incurable, terminal injury/illness and/or to be permanently unconscious by two examining physicians (including the client's attending physician), that artificial life-support systems be withheld or disconnected. The client may also elect to discontinue artificial nutrition and hydration (intravenous feeding) by so designating on the form. (Find more information at: legalhelper.net/living-will.aspx)\nUnder the Health Care Power of Attorney, the client makes three separate and independent elections authorizing the agent:\n1. To direct disconnection of artificial life-support systems in the event of terminal illness;\n2. To direct disconnection of artificial life-support systems in the event of irreversible coma; and\n3. To direct discontinuation of artificial nutrition and hydration.\nIn addition, the Health Care Power of Attorney form provides a space for the client to set forth any specific medical, religious or other desires concerning his/her health care. The client may also use this section as a backup source for organ donation. (Find more information at: legalhelper.net/power-of-attorney.aspx)\nBoth documents are signed in front of two witnesses and a notary public or a justice of the peace who acknowledges the client's signature. The witnesses to a Living Will are sworn by the notary public/justice of the peace and indicate that the client is at least 18 years of age and signed the instrument as a free and voluntary act.\nThe Living Will witnesses may not be the client's spouse, attending physician, heirs-at-law or person with claims against the client's estate.\nThe Health Care Power of Attorney witnesses may not be the designated agent, the client, spouse or heir or person entitled to any portion of the client's estate upon death under Will, Trust or operation of law.\nPeople are frequently confused as to why both a Living Will and Health Care Power of Attorney are necessary or appropriate. The Living Will is helpful as a backup document: In the event that the client enters an irreversible coma and the health care agents designated in the Health Care Power of Attorney are deceased or unloadable, the Living Will sets forth the desires of the client concerning his/her death-bed treatment which may be followed by attending physicians. The law provides that to the extent that a Durable Power of Attorney conflicts with a Living Will, the Health Care Power of Attorney controls. Copies of both the Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care and the Living Will are forwarded to the client's primary care physician for inclusion in medical records.\nBoth documents are revocable through normal revocation procedures.\nNote that LegalHelper.net provides an easy-to-use, quick, and economical online method for creating completed legal documents for any occasions.",

Seeing him attacking \"paparazzi\" in the new movie isn't helping.\nHe's all that, now. Good for him, I reckon...they should check for pods in his basement, though.\nHe's a great musician, no doubt. I hope his newfound \"stardom\" doesn't dilute that, but I find it hard to imagine that it won't.\nThis all goes back to the Lexus commercial. I can forgive his desire to be mainstream famous, but he went too far with the shill work.\nElvis, there's a name for you, but it's stuck in my throat...\nPostby bambooneedle \u00bb Sat Sep 15, 2007 4:06 am\nElvis doing the Lexus ad was like him venturing into the land of \"informercials\" as far as I see it. It's like declaring that your voice doesn't mean much anymore, he's lost some gravitas. And now the babies and the blonde are going to drag him down. I don't expect Elvis to make another brilliantly subversive album for a while now if ever again then. TDM 2 won't be anywhere as good as TDM.\nI don't think he did the Lexus ads so much for money (he is smart and shrewd, he's got plenty of that, probably tens of millions), as much as he did it as part of a longer PR campaign to change his image (the Sting and Elton showbiz shenanigans, the uncomfortable grovelling on talk shows, the soft collaborations... it all makes sense now), to make him more likeable for the new softheaded generation of reissue buyers. And that he did it for second rate luxury cars that are ripoffs of Mercedes... just makes him look ridiculous. He's supposed to be a rocker.\nNo Elvis, I don't want to buy a frickin Lexus.\nPostby spooky girlfriend \u00bb Sat Sep 15, 2007 9:45 am\nWell, Boo, he tends to make really good angry albums after a breakup, so we've got that to look forward to.\nThat made me laugh, Spook...\nPostby A rope leash \u00bb Sat Sep 15, 2007 3:28 pm\nWhat always appealed to me about Elvis was the power of his talent and his anti-establishment message. I really fell for that, and I thought he built his career on those strengths despite the corporate misgivings about it, and the lack of airplay after the first few years. Now it seems that all that stuff was as much a part of the \"image\" as the hats and glasses, and he's given his career over to the agents, and he just does what they ask.\nWhen I was younger, I was ridiculed by other rockers who thought Elvis was squirmy and untalented. They have now turned him in to some sort of icon of cool, and it turns out that they were all fans to begin with, or so it looks. Elvis hung in there and survived when other performers faded away like bad stains. Now he has a chance at mainstream stardom, but he's paying the price for it. He could have bought this back in '78.\nThe sad thing is, he's really a great man. Shilling for the corporation dilutes him, and I don't care for it. I don't want another repackaged hits album or contrived collaboration, I want a kickass issue of any genre that is new and from the heart. What I fear is that he will release a pop-tastic piece of crap that will get tons of airtime, and like Prince in \"Purple Rain\", people will swoon to him because he discarded the creativity and captured the cliche. So, the whole world will \"dig\" Elvis, except those who know better.\nI don't like giving him up to the corporate machine, nor do I like the idea that he's always been one and the same with them. He used to be my hero, now he's taking a stab at being everyone's hero, but the reasons for admiration are different. I admired him because he was a young rebel with sneer and guitar, but he is now admired for his versitility and longevity by many of the same folks that thought he was dumb to begin with. Seeing now that it was pretty much all contrived image makes me realize how stupid and gullible I was when I was a kid. I see kids now fascinated with certain rebel pop-stars, and I know it's a gigantic mass deception, but I guess they'll have to grow up and see it themselves in a future commerical.\nSo, he's opening for Dylan and I guess that's cool, but every report I hear says he's not in good voice. When I saw him live a few years back he was the King of Rock and Roll. He shouldn't be opening for anybody, but it seems they have him running here and there like some sort of ambassador of coolness, being seen with the other icons, and appearing for short periods in various movies, where everybody acts like they always loved him.\nIt's complicated. It's like the final straw that broke the back on my suspicions that everything is just an illusion. Elvis isn't the corporation-despising new wave punk rebel...that's just his image. In reality, he's a shrewd businessman and gifted musician, playing to the ear of disenchanted youth. When I hear him now, it's like I don't even know who he is. Sure, without his rock and pop career much of his work would not exist, but I really wish it hadn't turned out this way, and I still hope that he will settle down and get serious about jazz or classical, instead of riding his pop career into a media toilet. He should get a handle on his own productions, like Frank Zappa did, and ditch the record company contracts, so he can concentrate on the music, and not the money.\nIt feels good to get that out.\nPostby StrictTime \u00bb Sat Sep 15, 2007 3:52 pm\nWhat I fear is that he will release a pop-tastic piece of crap that will get tons of airtime, and like Prince in \"Purple Rain\", people will swoon to him because he discarded the creativity and captured the cliche. So, the whole world will \"dig\" Elvis, except those who know better.\nAgreed. I'm new to Elvis, but because my parents like good music, not because I think he's cool. Very nicely worded.\nAnd ShabbyDoll, good poem!\nPostby bambooneedle \u00bb Wed Oct 03, 2007 10:35 pm\nElvis doesn't care about Lexuses obviously, he cares about trying to make a subtle but clear statement - that he must be a person of a certain importance that people should take notice of. They wouldn't have asked Graham Parker or someone... nooo, they wouldn't be important enough. It's sly and hypocritical and disingenuous. He is trying to claim iconic status retroactively, ie. by leading new naive fans to assume that he must always have been considered a very important person with too much credibility to question. I don't care about how he might manipulate his image in interviews and whatever, that's all part of the artfulness and legitimate communication of rock stars, but trying to do so resorting to tv adverts is just so crass and phony and counter to that.\nPostby migdd \u00bb Thu Oct 04, 2007 9:07 pm\nElvis is working to positively forward the potential of his two new sons. This may require financial gain, artistic recognition and /or historic prominence.\nThis is his birthright and the fruits of his talent and labors. All the more power to him.\nPostby sulky lad \u00bb Fri Oct 05, 2007 7:34 am\nI don't know what Elvis thinks or feels,. I'm sure he hides much of his true feelings in even the most \"open\" of songs. However, I do believe the man who wrote \"I want to bite that hand that feeds me, I want to bite that hand so badly\" is now slobbering and fawning over those same corporate hands in a manner that disappoints me and acts as another episode of maturity onset disillusionment",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Horizons Unlimited Earns 3-Y... County Supervisors Approve S...\u00bb\nCity Council Discusses City Snow Removal\nThe Emmetsburg City Council met on Tuesday, Jan. 23. The meeting was originally scheduled for Jan. 22, but it was postponed due to weather. All councilmembers were in attendance except for Todd Bell.\nDuring the report of officers' section of the meeting, City Administrator John Bird reminded the council that the next meeting will be held on Monday, Feb. 12 at noon. The new City Administrator, Travis Cooke, will begin his responsibilities on Monday, Jan. 29. Emmetsburg Chief of Police, Ryan Veldboom commented that his move into the Chief position was very smooth. The Emmetsburg Police Department is also currently hiring a secretary; numerous qualified applicants have already submitted their resumes. Public Properties Director Frank Kliegl reported that City Snow Removal crew worked through the night Tuesday to clear Emmetsburg City streets before the commute Monday morning.\n\"Something we need to discuss at some point in time is the- there's a lot of snow left on sidewalks because it was heavy wet. It stretches back onto the sidewalk some places two to three feet,\" Kliegl explained. \"We're probably going to get the phone calls saying that we have ridges on those curb lines, back. It's not our jobs to shovel the sidewalks though. That's something that's just going to come about in time.\"\n\"I sometimes think the store owners are at a disadvantage too,\" Mayor Myrna Heddinger stated. \"They try to scoop off, and then the State plow comes along and plows all that back up. If they put it on the street, they do the same thing again. I don't know what to do.\"\n\"I noticed a couple of private parking lots plowed out onto the street and piled up on the street,\" Councilman Ryan Berkland noted. \"Do we talk to those people? Do we remind them of the ordinance and that sort of thing?\"\n\"I've talked to them in the past and didn't really get anywhere with it,\" Kliegl replied. \"We've got the code; we've handed the code out to all the business owners last year. We didn't do it this year. But another thing we could do, and I've thought about, is if you're going to plow snow for hire in the city limits of Emmetsburg; if we require a permit that you're going to do this and make money if you're a private hauler, private mover. Then should have to come to City Hall, get a permit, and then we instruct you on how our code is. So then it falls on the person that's moving the snow.\"\n\"It's just like grass clippings. We can address those issues as they arise,\" Veldboom added.\n\"I would think if they got a ticket or two for unlawful deposit in the street that they would probably find a better way to do it,\" Bird stated.\n\"I would look at handling it like we do our normal grass clippings in the summer,\" Veldboom commented. \"Usually we make a contact with the owner or who's ever doing the mowing and address the issue and give them an opportunity to fix it. If it gets to be habitual then we start looking at citations. We always want to give them that opportunity. Now granted they should know pushing snow out in the middle of the road is not acceptable; it's against the code.\"\nAn item in new business on Tuesday night was to consider amending the city code related to changing the makeup of the Community Center Board. The current members of the board indicated that they think an ECDC member should remain on the board. The City Council agreed and no action was taken to amend the code at this time.\nThe next meeting of the Emmetsburg City Council will be held on Monday, Feb. 12 at noon.",

        "raw_content": "Rick Simon looked up from the newspaper he was reading as he heard an insistent, \u2018knock, knock, knock,\u2019 on the closed door of the Simon and Simon office.\n\"Yeah, come on in!\" Rick called from where he sat behind his desk.\nThe detective jumped to his feet as a dark headed woman entered the office.\nThe fashionable lady who had just entered accepted Rick's hug and kiss, returning each wholeheartedly.\n\"Long time no see, Richard,\" the woman teased as they broke their embrace. \"Where have you been hiding yourself?\"\n\"Ah, work's kept me pretty busy lately. And you know how A.J. is. He doesn't let me rest for a minute.\"\nJoy caught sight of the newspaper on Rick's desk opened to the sport's section. \"Oh, I can certainly see that. Mean old A.J. keeps your nose to the grindstone, doesn't he?\"\n\u201cYeah...uh...well, see that's for a case we're workin' on. A...uh...real important case. A...uh...case involving...uh stolen baseballs.\"\nJoy shook her head and laughed. \"Even after all these years, Rick Simon, you haven't changed a bit. You're still the same fourteen-year-old boy I sat in front of in Mrs. Bartlett's English class.\"\nRick had no choice but to agree. \"Yeah, I guess you're right about that, darlin.\u2019\"\nAs Joy looked around the Simons' office she asked, \"Speaking of mean old A.J., where is my favorite little brother?\"\n\"He had to deliver some documents to a lawyer we're on a case for.\"\n\"The case of the stolen baseballs?\"\n\"No, not that one,\u201d Rick chuckled. \u201cBut anyway, he should be back in a little while.\"\n\"Good. I'd love to see him. I think the last time I saw A.J. was ten years ago. I stopped in to see you guys when your office was down on the beach, remember?\u201d\n\"Geez, has it been that long since you've been in San Diego?\" Rick asked while at the same time indicating for Joy to sit in one of the chairs that was positioned across from A.J.'s desk.\nRick settled himself in the remaining chair as Joy replied, \"Yes, it has been.\"\n\"You shouldn't wait so long in between visits.\"\n\"Me? What about you, Mr. Simon? The last time you were up to my place was what - almost nine years ago?\"\nRick nodded ruefully. \"Something like that. I keep meaning to call you and drive up some weekend, but time just keeps slippin' away from me.\"\n\"As it does for all of us,\" Joy agreed. \"But listen to you, Mr. \u2018time just keeps slippin' away from me.\u2019 What happened to the free spirited, go-whichever-way-the-wind-blows boy I used to know?\"\nRick chuckled again. \"Oh, there's still quite a bit of that boy left in this man. Just ask A.J.\"\n\"I'll do that,\" Joy confirmed. \"Still, it's hard for me to believe that I'm looking at the same guy I sat in front of in nearly every class all through high school.\"\nJoy\u2019s maiden name of, Seddar, had always placed her by order of the alphabet, in front of Rick Simon in all the classes they shared. By the second day of school their freshman year Joy had already decided that Rick was funny, cute, friendly, and a bit on the wild side. It was that reckless devil-may-care attitude of Rick's that had first appealed to the quiet, studious fourteen-year-old Joy. She was an only child who had attended previously an all girls Catholic grade school. Because of that, Rick was the first boy she'd had the opportunity to get to know well...much to her delight, and much to the concern of her parents.\n\"To this day my father can hardly believe that you're half owner of such a successful business.\"\nRick smiled modestly. \"We get by.\"\n\"Oh, come on, Rick, give yourself some credit. You and A.J. have done a wonderful job with this business over the past thirteen years. Dad sees your names in the paper for some deed or another all the time.\"\n\"Not all those deeds are necessarily good ones,\" Rick pointed out with a mischievous grin.\nJoy grinned as well. \"Dad's mentioned that fact a time or two, I believe.\"\n\"I'm sure he has,\" Rick laughed.\nAmidst the couple's laughter A.J. entered the office. He wasn\u2019t paying any attention to who his brother was entertaining as he leafed through the mail he carried in his hands.\nAt first A.J. couldn't place the woman who was rapidly approaching him with her arms outstretched. He knew exactly who she was though, when she hugged him tightly while exclaiming, \"My favorite little brother!\"\nA.J. broke into a big smile. \"Joy!\"\nJoy stepped out of A.J.'s hug after a moment and studied him at arms length. As she took in the handsome man attired stylishly in dark gray slacks and shirt, light gray sport coat and multi-print tie, she stated, \"A.J. you haven't changed a bit since the last time I saw you. How do you stay so young looking?\"\n\"Lots of plastic surgery,\" Rick quipped.\nA.J. ignored Rick's comment as he smiled warmly at their visitor.\n\"Thank you, Joy. It's a miracle that I've retained my youth, and my sanity, after all these years of working with my older brother. Speaking of which, have you noticed that Rick's lost more hair since you last saw him?\"\n\"Hey!\" Rick protested. \"Can the smart remarks, A.J., or I'll arrange for you to lose some of that hair of yours in a real painful manner.\"\nJoy laughed at the brothers as she retook her seat. A.J. walked behind his desk and sat down as well, while Rick continued to make idle threats in the blond man's direction.\n\"You two will never change, will you?\u201d Joy smiled. \u201cYou're still trying to get the best of each other.\"\n\"Yep, but I'm winnin,\u2019\" Rick declared.\n\"Don't bet on it,\" A.J. retorted.\nJoy knew the brothers well enough to know this argument could last all afternoon. Therefore, she intervened.\n\"Truce, guys. Truce.\"\n\"Okay, truce,\" Rick agreed.\nA.J. nodded. \"We never continue to argue when a lovely lady lightens our doorstep and asks us to call a truce.\"\n\"The one thing you two do have in common; is that you both know how to shamelessly flatter a woman.\"\n\"It's not shameless flattery, Joy. It's the truth,\" A.J. stated as he studied the stylish woman across from him. He doubted that she had put on more than ten pounds since high school, and that extra weight gain did her justice, filling out her figure in all the right places. Although Joy was the same age as Rick, meaning she was forty-nine, A.J. thought she could still pass for thirty-five. The turquoise sweater and skirt outfit she wore today complemented her olive complexion. The bits of gray that were beginning to sprinkle her dark hair only enhanced her looks in A.J.'s opinion.\nThe blond man elaborated with, \"And it's my way of saying thank you for helping Rick through high school. My worst nightmare would have become a reality had he still been in Mrs. Bartlett's class when I got there.\"\nJoy could only laugh as A.J.'s comment caused the brothers to once again get into a verbal scuffle. While the brothers sparred, Joy thought back with fondness to her high school years and the fun she'd had with Rick. They had dated on and off throughout those years, though not seriously. She could still recall many an afternoon spent in Cecilia Simon's kitchen doing homework with Rick...well, doing her homework while Rick kept her entertained with jokes, stories, and amusing antics. These actions would prompt Mrs. Simon to pop in the room to scold Rick and order him to, \"Get going on that school work, young man. I certainly wish some of Joy's study habits would rub off on you.\" And then on many a day, when it came time for Rick to walk Joy home, A.J. would tag along, or ride ahead of them on his bike.\nThe brothers had evidently called a truce while Joy was somewhere in the past. Rick caught her attention by asking, \"What brings you down this way, sweetie? Is everything okay with your folks?\"\nJoy smiled. \"Oh, yes, they're fine. Very active yet. As a matter of fact, so active that I rarely get a chance to get down here to visit them. They drive up to see the girls and me every couple of months.\"\n\"I guess that explains why you never come see us,\" Rick pouted. \"At least now I know it's not A.J.'s stinky aftershave that's kept you away.\"\nA.J. ignored his brother. Instead he asked politely of the woman, \"Speaking of your girls, how are they?\"\n\"Great. Doing wonderfully in school, both of them. Molly's just finished her junior year at U.C.L.A.--\"\n\"No,\" Rick denied with disbelief as his mind's eye pictured a pigtailed twelve-year-old with knobby knees, braces, and the promise of someday being the spitting image of her mother.\n\"Yes, Rick, that's how long it's been since you've been up to my place,\" Joy scolded. \"She's majoring in art and freestyle drawing.\"\n\"Oh, an artist like her mother,\" A.J. commented.\n\"Well, our techniques are somewhat different, and she has loftier goals that I ever had, A.J., but yes, Molly's inherited her mother's talent. With a little maturity and experience her talent will far surpass mine someday. She didn't come home to live this summer because she was hired to do a series of wall murals for several state owned offices in L.A.\"\n\"Good for her,\" Rick praised. \"And I suppose Lauren's all grown up, too. Or at least not still wearing diapers like she was the last time I was up your way.\"\n\"No, she's long out of diapers. She's eleven now, a good student, in more activities than I can keep track of, and seems to be a popular girl with her classmates. She was president of her sixth grade class this past year - an accomplishment she was quite proud of.\"\n\"And her mother was proud, too, no doubt,\" A.J. smiled.\n\"No doubt,\" Joy agreed with a slight blush.\nBefore the small talk could take up anymore time, Joy came to the point of her visit. \"It's because of Lauren that I'm here, actually. I'd like to hire you both if you're available and willing to take my case.\"\nAlthough neither brother was expecting a request of this type, they both agreed immediately.\n\"Of course we'll take your case,\" Rick said.\n\u201cSure we will,\" A.J. confirmed.\nJoy held up her hands in a gesture meant to indicate, \u2018slow down.\u2019\n\"Now wait a minute, guys. Before you make a commitment I think you should hear what the job involves.\" Subtly eyeing A.J.'s expensive sport coat, she added, \"I'll understand if either one of you says no.\"\n\"Why don't you start by telling us why you need to hire us?\" A.J. invited. \"I can't imagine that either Rick or I will turn you down.\"\nJoy smiled wickedly. \"Even if it means sleeping in a barn with forty kids ranging in age from nine to eighteen, plus somewhere in the neighborhood of eighty sheep?\"\nJoy laughed at the twin expressions of confusion on both brothers' faces. \"Maybe I should explain,\" she offered.\nWith trepidation, A.J. agreed. \"Maybe you should.\"\n\"As you both know, I've been divorced from Lauren and Molly's father for seven years now.\"\nRick and A.J. nodded.\n\"I never really told you why I divorced Bill, Rick. Actually, our problems went back a lot farther than most people know. It wasn't long after Molly was born that I knew I had made a mistake where marriage to Bill was concerned. Molly was only nine months old when I had my first big success with my artwork. It became apparent very quickly that Bill was jealous of that success, and of the good fortune I continued to have from there on out. The fact that I brought more money into our home than he did became the source of most of our arguments. I repeatedly tried to tell him that it didn't matter to me. That I viewed it as our money, not just my money, but no one could tell Bill much of anything. Molly was just two when the cycle of Bill not holding down a job began. Even though he had a business degree and is very intelligent, he'd work three or four months, then quit and be out of work that long or even longer. He began smoking pot, something he hadn't done since college. I wouldn't let him smoke it in the house, but you can imagine how I felt about that when we had a young child. From there, things between us began to crumble pretty quickly.\"\nRick rose at the end of Joy's narrative and retrieved cold sodas from the refrigerator for each of them. Joy replied with, \"Thank you,\" before continuing with her story.\n\"I finally made up my mind to divorce Bill after twelve years of this nonsense. By then I had come to realize he was never going to change. Never going to be the man that I had once thought he was. Then...well, I got pregnant with Lauren. An unplanned pregnancy was not what I needed right then, believe me, but I naively tried to tell myself that this new baby would turn things around for us. That somehow Lauren's birth would change Bill for the better.\"\nHaving heard similar stories in the past, A.J. interjected, \"But it didn't.\"\n\"No, it didn't,\" Joy reflected sadly. \"When she was four and Molly was fourteen, I filed for divorce. It was all very amiable at the time. Bill wasn't working, so I didn't even press for child support payments. I was making more than enough money to support the girls and myself, so rather than have the whole thing drag out in court and hard feelings erupt, I just let it drop. Plus, I got the house, of course.\"\nJoy gave a cynical laugh. \"But the money I had worked so hard for built it, so I suppose I was entitled to the house. Believe me, he never contributed one red cent to it.\"\nRick thought of the beautiful, large log home he had visited nine years earlier. Joy had designed it herself and done a spectacular job in his opinion. Of course, having several hundred thousand dollars on hand to put into a home didn't hurt anything either. Joy's artistic abilities had served her well over the years. Rick had no doubt that she was probably among the most successful, financially speaking, of his former classmates.\nBefore Joy could get off on a tangent by relaying all of her ex-husband's faults, A.J. said with a smile, \"I'm not sure I understand how all of this ties into a large number of children, sheep, and sleeping in a barn.\"\nJoy chuckled. \"Well, it does, A.J. Believe it or not, it all has to do with Bill in a round about way.\"\n\"Lay it on us then,\u201d Rick said. \u201cWe're all ears.\"\n\"I got custody of the girls in the divorce proceedings, Bill got weekend and holiday visitation rights. That lasted about four months, then, he stopped coming to pick them up. The first few times it happened I called him, but he always had some excuse. Then one day when I called his apartment I got no answer. That pattern continued for several days until I found out that, once again, he had quit his job. He had packed up the apartment and just...disappeared.\"\n\"Foul play?\" Rick asked.\n\"No. At first I worried about that, but then he got in touch with his sister. He told her he was going to travel for a while, and that was it. I never heard from him again.\"\n\"He didn't keep in contact with the girls?\" A.J. asked.\n\"No. It was like he had dropped off the face of the earth. He didn't even send them so much as a birthday or Christmas card in almost seven years time. Until two months ago.\"\n\"What happened two months ago?\" Rick asked.\n\"Lauren began receiving letters from Bill. Letters with no return address from various places around the country. Letters saying things like, 'Daddy has a nice house now. Daddy's working again. Wouldn't you like to come live with Daddy?' I found it all rather strange and threatening in a very subtle way. Then the other day he called Molly at her apartment in L.A. This is the first time he's made contact with her since she was fifteen.\"\n\"What did he say to her?\"\n\"He asked her how she was. What she was studying in college - small talk of that nature. That in itself doesn't really bother me, although I do find it strange that suddenly he's taking an interest in his daughters again after seven years of silence. What does have me worried, is the way he ended his conversation with Molly that day.\"\n\"How was that?\" A.J. inquired.\n\"By asking Molly if she thought Lauren would be happy living with him.\"\n\"What'd Molly tell him?\" came from Rick.\n\"That she thought Lauren would love to have a visit from him, would love to have the opportunity to get to know him, but that she was happy living with me. Molly then reminded Bill that I had custody of Lauren, not him.\"\n\"Did he say anything to that?\" A.J. asked.\n\"No. Molly said he just got very quiet, then said goodbye and hung up.\"\nSeveral thoughts were racing through Rick's mind. \"Has there been any other incidents recently, Joy? Anything at all that might indicate to you what he's up to?\"\nJoy nodded. \"Bill's sister, Sharon, called me yesterday. She, as well as Bill\u2019s mother, live in Utah. Although the girls and I only see them once or twice a year, I've always had a good relationship with both women. Sharon has four boys and has always spoiled my girls whenever she gets the opportunity. Anyway, Bill paid her a surprise visit last weekend. She said he made several comments about wanting to see Molly and Lauren, and wanting to have Lauren come live with him. At first Sharon didn't take him too seriously, but when he kept talking about it, she did as Molly had - reminded Bill that I had custody of Lauren.\"\nA.J. was puzzled. \"What's his motive here? I mean, for seven years he has no contact whatsoever with his kids, and now he's talking about having Lauren with him on a permanent basis.\"\n\"Frankly, A.J., I haven't a clue,\" Joy admitted. \"As I told you, Bill has always been jealous of me, and not just of my work. Of all aspects of my life. Sharon said he made several comments like, 'Joy's got everything. The money, the fancy house, the career, and my girls. I bet she's turned them against me. I bet she's made my girls hate me.' Which is not true, by the way. I never badmouthed Bill in front of the girls. I was the one who was hoping he'd someday get his act together and come back into their lives. I never imagined it would be in this manner though.\"\n\"Have you talked to your local police about this?\" A.J. asked.\n\"Yes, and while they were very sympathetic and understanding of my concerns, there's not much they can do about, as the cop put it, 'idle threats.'\"\nA.J. nodded. \"I figured as much. How about your lawyer?\"\n\"I saw her yesterday. She said there is a possibility, based on the things Bill said to Molly and Sharon, and the threatening tone of his letters to Lauren, that a judge would grant a petition barring him from seeing Lauren at all.\"\n\"I think that's where you should start then,\" A.J. advised. \"I realize something like that can take a while to get through the court system, but at least if a judge grants such a motion the police can get involved if Bill comes on your property, or tries to see or contact Lauren.\"\nSeeing Rick's nod of agreement, Joy said, \"All right. If that's what the two of you recommend. I'll go see my lawyer about it as soon as I return home.\"\n\"Good,\" A.J. stated, then with a trace of humor asked again, \"Now, how does this tie in with forty kids, numerous sheep, and Rick and me sleeping in a barn?\"\n\"Well, guys, unlike my ultra-feminine Molly; my Lauren is a tomboy. Her first love is animals, so several years ago when she got involved in 4-H I had a small barn built on my place for the three rabbits and one goat she had acquired. That menagerie has now grown to thirty rabbits, three goats, more ducks than I can count, twenty laying hens, one rooster, two geese, and eight sheep.\"\n\"And she takes care of all these animals by herself?\" Rick asked with admiration.\n\"Yes, she sure does,\" the proud mother said. \"Through what she's been taught in 4-H she's become quite the little business woman. Every fall she advertises and sells her ducks for holiday meal tables. She sells her rabbits for meat year round, and eggs from her hens as well.\u201d\n\"Gee, Rick, it sounds like Lauren makes more money than you do,\" A.J. quipped.\nRick sneered at his brother before saying to Joy, \"She sounds like quite the little entrepreneur.\"\n\"She is. But more importantly, she loves it all and is learning from it. She's due to go up to the state fair at Sacramento with her 4-H club in two weeks. She shows her sheep up there along with the rest of the kids in the animals project.\"\nRick had guessed what was coming next. \"And you want A.J. and me to go up there with her.\"\n\"I want to hire you and A.J. to go up there with her, Rick. Aside from the 4-H leader and her husband, usually six to eight other parents serve as chaperones. I've always gone in the past, but this year I have a big art show scheduled for that same week in San Francisco. I wish I could cancel it, especially with all this mess that's come up concerning Bill, but I can't. My income for the entire year depends on this show. I feel like a lousy mother, but I've got Molly's tuition, the mortgage payment,\n\"Stop it,\" Rick ordered. \"You're not a lousy mother. You're here, aren't you? Getting protection for your child.\"\nJoy nodded. \"Yes, I'm here. It's just that...well, you understand how I feel I'm sure. I could keep Lauren home this year, but she's worked so hard for this show. The kids plan for it all year. I hate to take that away from her based on something that might not even happen. Maybe I'm being paranoid. Maybe Bill's threats are idle ones, but I just can't help but worry that he'll show up in Sacramento and try to run off with her. I didn't know who else to turn to. There's no one else I'd entrust with my daughter's safety but the two of you.\"\nRick reached over and gave Joy's hand a squeeze while A.J. asked, \"Does he know about the fair? That Lauren shows animals up there every year?\"\n\"Yes, he does. Sharon told him in the course of casual conversation - you know, while bringing him up to date on the girls' activities. In one of the letters Lauren received he said he'd see her at the fair.\"\n\"That doesn't sound like an idle threat to me,\" Rick muttered. \"How much of this have you discussed with Lauren?\"\n\"All of it. I've been as honest with her as I can be, while at the same time trying to hide my fear. I don't want my fear to be passed on to her, nor do I want her to harbor ill feelings toward her father.\"\n\"Have you discussed with Lauren what she should do if Bill should somehow try to kidnap her?\" A.J. asked.\n\"Yes. I've reinforced things she's been taught in school, as well as things we've discussed at home concerning strangers. Ironic, isn't it? That the faceless, menacing stranger would turn out to be her father.\"\n\"Maybe not,\" A.J. commented. \"I hate to bring up other possibilities, but he could get someone to do it for him. Someone Lauren wouldn't recognize. You've done the right thing by being honest with her. And, after all these years, would Lauren even recognize him?\"\nJoy shrugged. \"I don't know, A.J. We have pictures at home, of course. She's got one of him in her room even, but it's the most current and was taken eight years ago.\"\n\"What about him?\" A.J. probed. \"Would he recognize Lauren? Does he have a recent photo?\"\n\"Yes. Sharon gave him Lauren's latest school picture. She had it on display at her house, and before he had aroused her suspicions, he asked Sharon if he could have it. She had no reason to say no to him at that time.\"\n\"And there's no other family members who would help him with this scheme?\" Rick asked.\nA.J. explained, \"Quite often in a situation such as this, a family member aids in the abduction, or provides a home for the child to be hidden in.\"\nJoy shook her head. \"No. No one. Sharon is Bill's only sibling. I know neither she nor her husband would help him. Bill's father is deceased, and his mother is seventy-seven and in a nursing home. She had a stroke two years ago that's left her unable to care for herself.\"\n\"That rules out a lot of possibilities then,\" Rick said with satisfaction.\nThe trio discussed the situation another fifteen minutes, in which time the Simons assured Joy they would take her case.\nA.J. ended their conference by looking at this appointment calendar. \"The kids leave on Monday the twenty-second you said. So how about if Rick and I drive up to your place after work the Friday before? That way we can spend Saturday and Sunday getting to know Lauren. It's going to be very important that she's comfortable with us. I'd also like to get a feel for how much of this she understands - with your permission, of course.\"\n\"That sounds fine, A.J. You discuss with Lauren whatever you and Rick feel is necessary. I think you'll find her to be a mature, intelligent young girl. I'll look forward to your company. I'll have the spare rooms ready and we can--\"\nBoth brothers protested. \"No, we won't inconvenience you,\" A.J. said, while Rick offered, \"We'll stay at a hotel.\"\n\"I won't hear of it,\" Joy insisted. \"I have five big bedrooms, three of which are hardly ever used. You two will stay with Lauren and me, and that's final. It's not very often I have overnight company other than my folks or Lauren's girlfriends. This will be a real treat for me.\"\n\"What will the neighbors say about two single men spending the night at your place?\" Rick teased.\n\"My nearest neighbor is a half mile away, Rick, so I doubt if anyone will even notice. And if they do, I'll just say I've hired two very handsome models to pose for a sketch I'm working on.\"\n\"Works for me,\" Rick agreed while A.J. laughed.\nThe blond man had one last question that suddenly came to mind. \"Since neither you nor Rick has said anything to the contrary, I assume Bill's never met Rick, or seen a picture of him?\"\nJoy shook her head. \"No never. Rick was in Vietnam when Bill and I were married. He visited me once right after he got out of the service, but Bill was gone with some buddies on a fishing trip at that time. When he stopped by nine years ago Bill was out in Utah visiting his mother. I never even mentioned Rick too often. At least not once we were married. As I said, Bill was very jealous. I learned early on in my relationship with him never to bring up past boyfriends. Even one like Rick, who was more of a best friend, than a boyfriend.\"\n\"Boy, now she tells me,\" Rick pouted.\nJoy leaned over and gave the pouting detective a kiss on the cheek. \"Don't try to pull that act on me, Rick Simon. You spent more time with Carlos and that motorcycle of yours than you ever spent with me.\"\nRick eyed Joy appreciatively, \"Yeah, and now I sure can't figure out why.\"\nFrom that point, things were quickly wrapped up. At the end of the discussion Rick rose and urged Joy to stand as well.\n\"Now I'm gonna treat you to lunch. There's a great little seafood place down on the beach. It's quiet, and the atmosphere is just what the doctor ordered for people with too many worries on their mind. And we aren't going to talk business. This is strictly for pleasure.\"\nJoy laughed at Rick's enthusiasm. \"Okay, if you insist.\"\nJoy turned to see A.J. still seated at his desk. \"A.J., aren't you coming?\"\n\"No, you two go ahead. You've got old times you want to catch up on.\"\n\"And you're a part of those old times, so come on,\" Joy encouraged while walking over to the seated blond and pulling him up by the arm.\n\"Yeah, come on, A.J.,\" Rick invited. \"You always were taggin' along with me and Joy whether I wanted you to or not. Why should today be any different?\"\nAs the threesome walked out the door A.J. revealed, \"The only reason I tagged along was because Joy's dad paid me twenty five cents to make sure you behaved like a gentleman.\"\n\"He did not!\"\n\"Oh yes, he did.\"\n\"A.J., you're full of it. He's full of it, isn't he, Joy?\"\n\"What's that supposed to mean?\" Rick questioned.\n\"Um...Rick...my dad really did pay A.J. to make sure you behaved like a gentleman. I didn't know it at the time. I found out about it long after I was out of high school and--\"\n\"A.J.! A.J., you'd better run, 'cause when I catch you...\"\nJoy laughed all the way to the parking lot. She shook her head as she watched Rick chase A.J. round and round the Camaro until she finally intervened, admonishing her old friends to behave themselves. There was a lot more laughter, and a lot more admonishments from Joy, before lunch was over that day and the three went their separate ways.\nThe Simons walked Joy to her car. They promised the woman they'd see her again in two weeks right before she pulled out of the parking lot and headed for her parents\u2019 house, where she had to pick up Lauren before making the journey home.\nEverything Rick had told A.J. regarding Joy's home proved to be true. But description alone couldn't do the large, sprawling log house justice. Joy and her girls had a spectacular view of the property's twenty wooded acres from all the rooms of the house due to the large windows each one contained. Each room was tastefully and comfortably decorated and furnished, many of the walls stenciled with designs drawn and painted by Molly and Joy.\nIt was after nine on Friday evening when Rick and A.J. arrived. They met Lauren and chit chatted with her briefly about her animals and the upcoming fair, then she was sent off to bed so the adults could relax together over coffee and cake in Joy's big country kitchen.\nThe weekend proved to be enjoyable for all. The Simon brothers thoroughly enjoyed their time in the country, and their vivacious little eleven-year-old hostess.\nBy lunch time on Saturday Rick and A.J. had been introduced to all of Lauren's animals, helped her collect, wash, sort, and carton the eggs, feed and water chickens, sheep, goats, ducks, and rabbits. They also aided her in chasing a stray tomcat out of the hen house.\nIn the afternoon Lauren gave the brothers the grand tour of her mother's property, leading them through woods, a grassy meadow, and over a small stream that ran into a creek.\nBoth Rick and A.J. found Lauren to be an outgoing, happy, mature child, and like her mother had said, quite a tomboy. In her baggy black shorts, white t-shirt that proclaimed, L.A. LAKERS, and black high top sneakers, the fine boned, petite girl with the short blond wedge style hair cut could easily have been mistaken for a nine or ten year old boy. Or at least until she smiles, A.J. thought. The smile emphasized her pretty features, giving away the fact that this wannabe boy was someday going to be a knock out in the department of feminine looks.\nLauren and Rick quickly formed a fast and firm bond, partly based on the fact that Rick was an old high school friend of her mother's, thereby prompting the young girl to drill Rick insistently with questions pertaining to Joy's teen years. Rick's natural love for animals came through clearly to Lauren as well, giving her another reason to immediately take to him.\nOf A.J., Lauren wasn't so sure. She quickly picked up on the fact that while he was enjoying his time spent in the country, he was not a country boy. She found it amusing when A.J. got 'strict' with Rick, scolding him for this or that. She also found the blond man easy to talk to, just as she did Rick. It didn't take Lauren long to feel comfortable with A.J., almost as comfortable as she felt with Rick, yet not quite. She held back a little, not too sure of the alien feelings that stirred somewhere deep inside her when she studied the blond detective from across the room.\nBy Sunday evening the Simons had spent enough time with Lauren to feel assured that she trusted them and would do as they told her to without question over the next four days. They had also gained insight as to how much she understood about the potential problems they might face at the fair, and how she felt about that. Although Lauren was upset that the father she didn't really even know might try to kidnap her, she had a child's complete faith in the adults her mother had hired to protect her. She was excited enough about the upcoming 4-H show to be able to push the adults' concerns and worries to the back of her young and busy mind.\nAt seven on Monday morning two of Lauren's sheep, Virginia and Lucky, were loaded on a large stock trailer that came to Joy's house. The girl's sheep joined other sheep from her 4-H club that were to be exhibited at the state fair. The trucker and his helpers had started well before dawn that morning, and Lauren's sheep were the last to go on. The bleating of eighty sheep could be heard as the big truck made its way down the long driveway, headed for the expressway that would take it to Sacramento.\nTen minutes later the Simons, Joy, and Lauren, pulled out of the driveway in Joy's car. They were headed for the local grade school where the club members were to meet.\nThe sleeping bags, cots, suitcases, and show chests were loaded into a trailer that one of the father-chaperones was pulling behind his pickup truck to Sacramento.\nAmidst goodbyes and admonishments to 'behave yourself,' and 'have a good time this week,' one after the other of the 4-H kids climbed on board the school bus that would take them north to the fair grounds.\nRick and A.J. were quietly introduced to the 4-H leader and her husband, Beverly and Allan Timmons. They were the only two people, aside from Lauren, who knew Rick and A.J.'s real purpose for being along on this trip. As far as everyone else was concerned, Rick and A.J. Simon were extension agents employed by the 4-H council whose main headquarters were in, as luck would have it, San Diego. As Bev explained to her club members, \"The Simon brothers are spending the summer with various 4-H clubs, seeing how well organized they are, how well run - things of that type. They will also be acting as chaperones while they're with us on this trip, so keep in mind, what they say goes.\"\nWhile Rick and A.J. were being introduced to the other chaperones, Joy was saying goodbye to Lauren.\n\"You have a good time this week, sweetheart. I know Lucky and Virginia will do well for you. Just remember to smile when you're in the show ring and look confident.\"\nWith an air typical of a child who's been told these same things too many times in recent days, Lauren assured, \"I will, Mom.\"\nJoy hugged her daughter tightly. \"You do everything Rick and A.J. tell you to. Don't go anywhere without one of them with you.\"\n\"Mom, you've told me that about a hundred times already. I know. I will. I promise. Don't worry so much. Everything's gonna be okay. I gotta go. The bus is ready to leave.\"\nThe hardest thing Joy had ever done up to this point in her life, came when she had to kiss her daughter goodbye and send her off to a situation that was so uncertain.\nAs the blond waif ran full speed for the bus, Joy wiped at her tears with the back of one hand. Rick and A.J. approached, causing Joy to smile self-consciously. \"It looks like she's holding up better than her mother.\"\n\"Kids are tough,\" Rick commented while listening to the laughter coming from the bus. \"And you've got yourself a very strong little girl in that one.\"\n\"She'll be fine, Joy. We won't let anything happen to her,\" A.J. promised as he hugged the woman goodbye.\n\"I know you won't,\" she agreed.\nRick took his turn for a goodbye hug and kiss, saying softly in Joy's ear, \"Hey, do you actually think I'd let down the girl who got me through old lady Bartlett's English class?\u201d\nJoy couldn't help but laugh. \"No...no, I don't.\"\n\"All right then. Dry those tears and quit your worryin.\u2019 I'll take care of Lauren as if she were my own.\"\n\u201cI know you will, Rick. Thank you.\"\nThe brothers turned and boarded the bus that was filled with excited, chattering young people.\nJoy stood with a group of other parents in the school parking lot, waving goodbye until the bus was out of sight.\nThe artist tried to keep her worries at bay as she got in her car and headed in the opposite direction the bus had turned in. Her destination, San Francisco and her art show.\nRick was never so happy to get off a bus as he was when that 4-H bus pulled up next to one of the sheep barns at the state fair grounds. Under his breath, Rick grumbled to his brother, \"I didn't know forty kids could be so damn noisy. Isn't there some law about silence on a school bus?\"\nA.J. gave his brother a pained look. \"In your advanced years, you've obviously forgotten our many bus trips up to Camp Noahwanga.\"\n\"I don't remember those trips bein' noisy. We were good kids.\"\n\"I was a good kid,\" A.J. pointed out. \"You, on the other hand, were the kid who initiated the bus wide paper airplane attack on the driver and encouraged all the other little campers to scream out the bus windows, 'Help! We're being kidnapped by a crazy man!\u2019\"\n\"I wasn't that bad,\" Rick protested.\nAs usual, A.J. had the last word. \"Oh, really? Then I wonder why Mom got that letter from the bus company telling her that she'd have to drive Richard up to summer camp from now on because his presence on the bus was too disruptive. Not to mention the fact, that the driver had a nervous break down.\"\n\"Ah, he was an old guy anyway. I bet he really had a heart attack or something, and they made that nervous break down part up,\" was all Rick said as he and A.J. assisted with unloading the sleeping bags and other paraphernalia.\nFor all Rick's complaining about the noise level of the kids on the bus, A.J. was impressed at how well organized this little club was. By the time he, Rick, and the father who had driven up the kids\u2019 supplied, had the trailer and truck unloaded, the children had been given their pen assignments and were helping each other and the trucker unload all the sheep. A.J. watched with interest as the children, from the nine year olds to the eighteen year olds, took responsibility for their own animals.\nRick and A.J. delivered each wooden show chest to the appropriate child. When the large boxes were open out came rubber pans for food and water, halters, currycombs, and other necessary items for the sheep. The blond detective commented about the usefulness of these chests to the 4-H leader who told him, \"Yes, they need something to haul all the equipment in they use for the animals. They make their show chest as part of their winter project the first year they sign up to be part of the animal program. They have a ball decorating them, as you probably can guess.\"\nA.J. nodded, having noted that the kids had painted the boxes the colors of their choice, then lettered them with their names and any other designs that struck their fancy. No doubt some father had helped all of them mount metal handles on the sides that made for easy carrying, as well as a latch for a padlock to keep their equipment secure.\nLong experience in undercover work had taught both Simons that it could be very boring just standing around watching the subject you were to guard. Therefore, whenever possible, Rick and A.J. liked to get involved in whatever activity or job precipitated this type of work. Soon both Simons were busy helping the smaller children haul buckets of water to their sheep from the spigot at the other end of the barn. A.J. lifted and opened several fifty pound bags of feed for an admiring group of young girls, Lauren included, then poured the pellets into the buckets the girls held out for him.\nWhen the feeding, watering, and bedding of the animals was finished, the children began pulling out small wooden signs they had made as part of a 4-H project. The sound of hammers hitting nails soon echoed throughout the barn as those signs were hung above each pen. Each sign contained the name of the 4-H club, The Valley Explorers, the child's name, and the names of their sheep. As A.J. and Rick walked the barn aisle they were amused to see sheep with names like Moe, Larry, and Curly, Hillary and Bill, as well as Magic, and his pen mate, Johnson.\nRick returned to Lauren's side while A.J. continued on with a tour of the barn. He soon came upon a forlorn looking eleven year old.\n\"What's wrong, Pete?\"\n\"I don't have a name for my sheep yet,\" the boy answered while eyeing his two animals, one all black, the other white.\n\"Is that a problem?\" A.J. asked while leaning down on the pen, resting his weight on his arms.\n\"I'm supposed to have a name before I show them. I was really supposed to have 'em named before I brought them here, but I can't decide who they look like.\"\n\"Who they look like?\"\n\"Yeah. I mean, they gotta look like somebody in order for me to give 'em names. All my other sheep have, but this year I just can't decide who they look like. You know, like a movie star, or baseball player, or someone like that.\"\nA.J. reached out to pet both rams. \"I guess that is a problem, isn't it? What happened to this one's head?\" the blond man asked as he rubbed his hand over a permanent bald spot on top of the black ram's skull.\n\"My dopey little brother was playing with matches and caught his wool on fire.\"\n\"Ouch,\" A.J. sympathized.\n\"He wasn't hurt too bad. My dad got it out right away. But his wool won't grow back there.\"\n\"Poor guy,\" A.J. said before moving along. He gave the boy an encouraging clap on the back. \"Hey, get rid of the long face now. I'm sure you'll come up with names for them yet.\"\n\"I've only got until tomorrow. I sure hope I figure out who they look like by then.\"\n\"You will. I'm sure of it,\" were A.J.'s parting words.\nPete stood alone then, studying his animals for a long time. Then he stood studying A.J. and Rick as they conversed down by Lauren's pen. His attention was returned to his animals as they locked horns and scuffled playfully within their confines. He looked back at Rick and A.J. and watched as they teased each other over something, A.J. eventually knocking Rick's cowboy hat off his head. It was then, when Pete caught sight of Rick's hairline, that he came up with a name for his two rams.\nThe boy raced full speed down the barn aisle.\n\"Hey, A.J.! Hey, A.J.! I've got it! I've got names for my sheep! I know who they look like!\"\nThe club members and their chaperones ate a late lunch as a group, then were allowed to split up for the afternoon to explore the fair grounds. All the children twelve and under were divided into groups and assigned to a chaperone. The teenagers were allowed to roam on their own, although were cautioned to stay in groups of three or more, and given strict orders as to what time they were expected back at the barn.\nA.J. and Rick had agreed to switch off in their roles as bodyguards to Lauren. A.J. volunteered to take the first shift, so soon found himself a chaperone to eight girls ages nine to twelve.\nRick hadn't been assigned to a group of kids, so relished going off to explore the fair he had never been to. That luxury was not to be, however, as a group of fifteen and sixteen year old boys attached themselves to the man who they thought was 'cool.\u2019\n\"Hey, Rick, let's go down to the Midway and play some games. Bet I can out shoot ya',\u201d a tall, blond headed sixteen- year-old named Jason bragged.\nRick's eyes glowed with opportunity. \"How much ya' willin' to wager, kid?\"\n\"I don't know. How about fifty cents for best shot three outta five.\"\n\"Baby money,\" Rick scoffed. \"Make me an offer when you're grown up, junior.\"\n\"Yeah, junior, that's baby money,\" Jason's friends teased.\n\"Well...okay, how about...two bucks best three outta five, Rick?\" Jason offered in an attempt to save face.\n\"Now you're talkin', kid,\" Rick agreed as he and his entourage of five boys headed off to the games.\nIt was almost suppertime when A.J. and his little group of girls were walking down the roads that led past all the restaurants and food booths. A.J. did a double take as he glanced at a large, open sided canvas tent.\nHis mouth set in a grim line, he ordered, \"You girls wait here. Don't move from this spot, any of you. Do you understand me, Lauren?\"\nLauren, who knew how important A.J.'s words were, nodded and replied, \"Sure, A.J. We'll wait here.\"\nA.J. entered the tent, striding purposefully to the person who had first caught his eye. \"Rick! Rick!\" He shouted in order to be heard over the exotic music.\nA.J. wasn't able to get his brother's attention until he clamped his hands on Rick's shoulders and shouted in his ear, \"Rick! What the hell are you doing in here?\"\nRick glanced up at his brother. \"Eatin' supper.\"\n\"You can't bring these boys into a place like this!\"\nA.J. looked up at the stage where several woman were belly dancing in sheer skirts and veils.\n\"Rick, we're supposed to be setting an example for these kids. If you're going to take charge of them you can't--\"\nOver the music, Rick shouted back, \"I didn't take charge of them! They tagged along behind me! I can't help it if they followed me in here!\" \u2018Here,\u2019 meaning the large Arabian style tent where gyros were served and belly dancing was the main form of entertainment.\nA.J. shook his head at his brother in disapproval while he began gathering up the boys. \"Come on, guys. Let's go.\"\nAmidst protests of, \"We just got here!\" and \"Oh come on, A.J., we wanna see the show!\" A.J. finally got all five boys and Rick out of the tent.\nThe boys reluctantly joined A.J.'s circle of little girls outside the tent.\n\"Rick was just buying us supper, A.J.,\u201d Jason said. \u201cIt was no big deal. He won twenty dollars off me so--\"\nA.J. glared at his sibling while asking Jason, \"He won twenty dollars off you? And how exactly did that happen?\"\nRick attempted to make himself very small as Jason volunteered, \"We made a bet at the target shooting booth. Two dollars for the best shot three outta five. I never could beat him.\"\nA.J. cocked an eyebrow at his brother and asked dryly, \"Gee, I wonder why?\" Then ordered firmly, \"All you kids stay right here. Rick and I will be back in a second.\"\nA.J. pulled his brother off to one side. \"What are you doing with these kids? Gambling, belly dancers--\"\n\"Ah, A.J., you're makin' a big deal over nothing. Besides, they're not little kids. They're teenage boys.\"\n\"Yes, I know. That's what worries me.\"\nTo stall any further scolding Rick said, \"Tell ya' what. I'll take the girls for a while and you can have some free time.\"\n\"Sounds good to me,\" A.J. readily agreed. \"If I have to go on the Tilt \u2018O Whirl or Scrambler one more time today I think I'll throw up.\"\n\"In all your tiltings, scramblings, and otherwise wanderings, did you see anyone who looked like Bill?\"\n\"No, but it only took me five minutes to figure out that practically every man attending this fair is wearing either sunglasses, a baseball cap, or both. Aside from that fact, there\u2019s a sign posted on an administration building that says there are over forty thousand people here today. I have a feeling he could very easily get lost in the crowd.\"\nRick glanced around at the throngs of people passing by them. \"Yeah, that's for sure.\"\n\"Just don't let Lauren out of your sight.\"\n\"I won't,\" Rick assured as the two began moving back to the group of children.\n\"Girls, I'm gonna be your chaperone for a while now,\" Rick announced. \"You've all been too hard on old A.J. He just can't handle the ladies like he used to in his younger days.\"\nAll the little girls cast a collective, forlorn backwards glance at A.J. They waved and called as one, \"Goodbye, A.J.\"\n\"Goodbye, girls,\" A.J. called back while trying to ignore the blatantly obvious signs of puppy love.\nA.J. began walking in the opposite direction of Rick and the girls, only to turn around to see that Rick's group of boys were tagging along behind him now.\nWith a twinkle in his eye, Jason asked, \"Hey, A.J., you wanna go to one of the shooting games with us?\"\n\"No, I don't think so. You guys go on if you want to.\"\nA thin, gangly brunette boy named Zack teased, \"I bet you can't shoot as good as Rick, can you? That's why you don't want to go, huh, A.J.?\"\nThe wheeler-dealer Jason carried the ball from there. \"Yeah. I bet you can't shoot at all, can ya?\" You don't really look like the kind of guy that knows how to handle a gun. Rick was in Vietnam, ya' know.\"\n\"Yes, I know that,\" A.J. acknowledged. \"But that doesn't have anything to do with whether a person can handle a gun or not. A lot of guys who served in Vietnam never had to use their guns.\"\n\"Yeah, but Rick did I bet. I can tell by the way he shoots,\" an impressed Jason stated. \"Come on, A.J., I'll even give you the first five shots free, then bet you the best three out of five just like I did Rick.\"\nA.J. looked around to make sure his brother was nowhere in sight. \"Do you have enough money left to back that bet, Jason?\"\nThe boy reached in the pocket of his blue jeans and produced a roll of bills. \"Sure do.\"\n\"Okay.\u201d A.J. agreed with a hidden smiled. \u201cLet's go then.\"\n\"All right!\" The boys whooped as they ran ahead of the detective toward the Midway once again.\nLater that evening a poorer but wiser Jason returned to the barn with his friends and A.J. The chaperones were soon busy making sure the kids fed and watered their animals again. Rick laughed as white cloths where fastened around the bodies of all the sheep and white hoods were pulled over their heads so only their eyes, ears, mouths, and noses were showing.\n\"Look, A.J., the sheep are getting ready for bed. They've got their nighties on.\"\nWatching this odd ritual being preformed by all the children prompted A.J. to say, \"The sheep look like they're getting ready for a Klan rally.\"\nRick laughed again, then Lauren explained that the hoods and robes were used to keep the animals\u2019 wool clean for show day. When the sheep laid down in their pens they wouldn't get their wool matted with straw or dirty with manure.\nOnce the chores were done the children broke off with their various friends to chat, eat snacks, or play board games that had been brought along. The adults were finally able to relax for the first time all day.\nRick and A.J. sat on a bale of straw in an empty pen close enough to Lauren to keep an eye on her, but far enough away so she couldn't hear their conversation.\n\"Did everything go okay when she was with you?\" A.J. asked while nodding in the little girl's direction.\n\"Yep, everything went fine,\" Rick replied between swigs of a cold Pepsi. \"But you're right, with the amount of people this place pulls in he could slip by us so easily that it wouldn't be funny.\"\n\"I know,\" A.J. agreed. \"Are you taking the first shift in the morning or am I?\"\n\"Doesn't matter. What time do the kids show tomorrow?\"\n\"Two o'clock. They have to be back here at the barn by noon to get their animals ready.\"\n\"I can take the morning,\" Rick volunteered. \"You can have her after the show.\"\nA.J. nodded, knowing that both he and Rick would be on bodyguard duty during the show.\nTwo hours later the kids, as well as their chaperones, were getting ready for bed. The boys' cots were on one side of the long steel-sided barn, separated from the girls by pens that ran the full length of the structure. The chaperones split up throughout the barn, Rick and A.J. setting their cots up right in the middle of the barn's two aisles, Rick on the boys side, A.J. on the girls. The blond detectives cot was right outside the empty pen where Lauren and two of her girlfriends were 'camping' out.\nNo one went with the formality of pajamas. Boys and girls alike climbed into sleeping bags wearing jeans and t-shirts or shorts and t-shirts. A.J. got ready to get in his own sleeping bag. He left his jeans on, but pulled off his shoes and socks and set them on the cement floor under his cot. The blond man had his shirt up to his neck, in the process of taking it off as well, when he was stopped by a succession of giggles. He blushed bright red and smiled weakly at the collection of admiring adolescent girls who were staring at him from their beds.\n\"'Night, A.J.,\" the girls chorused sweetly.\nA.J. pulled his shirt back down. \"Good night, girls,\" he replied in a tone of long suffering before making himself comfortable in his sleeping bag.\nIt took A.J. quite a while to fall asleep that night. One row of barn lights was left on permanently, so he had to get used to a bare light bulb shining above him. It took a long time, as well, for the children to settle down and for their whispers and quiet laughter to slowly die out. Even then, A.J. could hear faint shouts, screams, and laughter coming from the Midway where the games and rides continued full speed until midnight. After that, things finally began to grow quiet. Or as quiet as things can get, A.J. thought, when one is sleeping in a barn with forty kids and eighty animals. Occasionally an animal would bleat, or get up and move about restlessly, or two rams would lock horns and scuffle for a while.\nMust be Rick and A.J., the detective thought as he drifted toward sleep with the sound of Pete's fighting rams in the background.\nA.J. wasn't sure what brought him wide-awake with a start in the early morning hours. He pressed a tiny button on his watch and glanced at the lit dial to see that it was two fifty-five. As he sat up on his cot, A.J. thought he saw the shadow of a man standing in the doorway at the south end of the barn. When he looked again, however, the man was gone. A.J. sat there a moment longer before getting out of his sleeping bag and reaching for his shoes. He walked the length of the aisle, peering out the doorway looking first right, and then left. A.J. saw no one, but stood there in the darkness for a few minutes anyway, the lights from the barn throwing his shadow out in front of him.\nA.J. swiveled as he heard a noise at the other end of the barn. Rick was entering through the north doorway with Jason beside him.\nRick's jaw was set sternly as he gave the boy a little shove toward his cot. \"Get in there and get to sleep,\" Rick growled.\n\"You aren't gonna tell, are you, Rick?\"\nAlthough Rick had no intention of 'telling' he decided to make the teen sweat a bit. \"I don't know, kid. I'll have to think about it. Now get back to bed.\"\n\"Where were you?\" A.J. whispered as the brothers met halfway down the barn aisle.\n\"My friend Jason there decided to make a little night time recon mission over to the horse barn. Seems he had a cute little cowgirl waitin' there for him. I caught the two of 'em neckin' hot and heavy in the corner of an empty stall.\"\n\"Ah, you're own experiences sneaking off to the girls' cabins at Camp Noahwanga no doubt aided you in your efforts to round up Jason tonight.\"\nRick nodded wryly. \"That, and the fact that the kid couldn't sneak by a room full of deaf old ladies if he tried. I heard him the minute he got up.\"\n\"I see,\" was all A.J. said in return.\nSuddenly realizing that A.J. was awake at three o'clock in the morning for no apparent reason prompted Rick to inquire, \"What are you doin' up?\"\n\"Some noise woke me, I guess. I looked in that direction,\" A.J. pointed to the south doorway, \"and thought I saw a man standing there so got up to check things out.\"\n\"Was anyone there?\"\n\"No, not that I could see.\"\n\"Do you think one of us should have a look around?\"\n\"I suppose it wouldn't hurt.\"\n\"Since I've already been out there once and am now wide awake, I might as well go,\" Rick volunteered. He headed toward the south entrance, his unbuttoned shirt billowing gently around his back in the night breeze.\nTwenty minutes later Rick returned, having walked a circle around all the barns, pigs, cattle, and horses included.\n\"I didn't see a soul,\" Rick reported to his brother who was leaning tiredly against a wooden support beam.\nBoth men noted that all was quiet in their barn, everyone apparently asleep, so they, too, returned to their cots. A.J. fell asleep almost immediately, unlike Rick, who remained awake and alert for another forty-five minutes before finally dropping off to sleep somewhere around four a.m.\nBy seven the children were beginning to stir. The barn was soon bustling with the activity of morning chores. In order to keep the barn and pens cleaned, Bev had made a game of it by dividing the children into sections and awarding prizes to the first group who had the cleanest pens each morning.\nA.J. was put in charge of Lauren and her girlfriends again, so with his urging all the girls were stirring about like busy bumble bees. They fed and watered their animals first, then cleaned out the pens. They loaded the manure and straw in a wheelbarrow and dumped it outside the barn where the fair's ground crew would haul it away later in the morning. The girls then spread fresh bales of straw in the pens.\nRick was to supervise Jason and his friends in these activities, but was having trouble getting the teens motivated. Just getting the boys out of bed was a project. As each second passed and he watched A.J.'s little charges hard at work, Rick grew angrier and angrier. Finally, in his best Marine sergeant voice, he bellowed, \"Now listen up, you lazy bones! You guys are gonna get your sorry carcasses out of bed and I mean right now!\" Rick moved along and began dumping the boys from their cots.\n\"Move it, Jason! Come on, lover boy, rise and shine! Zack get up! Now! Travis, let's go! Justin, I mean you too! Brian, come on! Move it, move it, move it!\"\n\"Gee, since when did we get drafted,\" Jason muttered as he untangled himself from his sleeping bag.\n\"Since those little girls over there started beating you at this morning's contest. Come on, you guys, let's go!\"\nAlthough somewhat unorthodox, Rick's method was effective. Soon all his boys were getting their morning work done. A.J.'s girls still won the prizes awarded for cleanest pens, but Rick and his boys vowed they'd get them the next day. A.J. merely scoffed, knowing fully well his group of girls were bound to beat the teenagers to the punch every morning.\nRick quickly showered before his morning duty with Lauren was to begin. He then sat sipping coffee at an outside picnic table that was two hundred feet from the door of the girls' bathroom/shower room. He passed the time people watching while he waited for Lauren to shower and dress for the day.\nFifteen minutes later the girl appeared carrying her gym bag. She was freshly scrubbed and wearing blue jeans, a white man's style button up shirt with her 4-H club's name on the back, and a green baseball cap that also proclaimed the name, VALLEY EXPLORERS. All the children were dressed like this for their first show day, as were the adults. Rick and A.J. had been provided with shirts and hats by Mrs. Timmons, too, so they would look like they belonged.\nLauren did an uncharacteristic little feminine spin on the toe of her sneaker. \"How do I look, Rick?\"\n\"You look gorgeous, sweetheart,\" Rick smiled. \"You make me wish I was eleven again.\"\n\"It wouldn't do you any good. I wouldn't help you with your homework like my mom did,\" Lauren teased.\n\"Why you little creep,\" Rick teased right back as he made a grab for the girl, picking her up and hanging her upside down by her ankles.\n\"Rick! Rick...put me down!\" Lauren shouted giggles.\nRick gently deposited the girl back on her feet, warning her, \"Don't mess with me again, kid.\"\nRed faced and laughing, Lauren promised, \"I won't.\"\nRick gathered up his Styrofoam coffee cup as all the girls he was chaperoning began to appear from the bathroom. \"Are you girls ready to get some breakfast?\"\nA chorus of \"Yeses,\" came forth as the little group followed Rick toward the streets of the fair grounds that were predominately lined with restaurants and dining halls.\nLauren walked hand in hand with the detective. \"Rick, do you think A.J. will think I look okay today?\"\nRick had to hide his smile. \"A.J. will think you're just as gorgeous as I do, sweetie. Even more so 'cause he's a sucker for blonds.\"\n\"Are we going to see him at breakfast?\"\n\"No, I think he ate while you were in the shower, but we can look for him after you're done if you want.\"\nLauren turned to the girls following behind her and Rick. \"Hey, everybody! We'll go look for A.J. after we eat!\"\n\"Yay!\" came the cheer from A.J.'s admiring masses.\n\"You girls really know how to make a guy feel welcome,\" Rick pouted.\nA red headed pigtailed ten-year-old who reminded Rick of Pippi Longstocking, tugged his waist. \"We like you, Rick, but we love A.J. He's cute.\"\n\"You think so, huh? Then I guess you girls have never watched him sleep. He's real ugly when he's asleep. His hair's all messed up, his mouth is open, he drools, and he snores.\"\n\"I don't believe you,\" the red headed April declared.\n\"It's true,\" Rick countered back. \"You girls stay up tonight and watch him.\"\n\"Okay, we will,\" April said as all the other girls nodded. \"Will you wake us up after A.J.'s asleep?\"\n\"Sure I will,\" Rick promised before further conversation halted when his group came upon a dining hall that Rick had been told served an excellent breakfast.\nLater that morning Rick and the girls walked the entire fairgrounds twice in search of A.J. Although their wanderings proved futile, Rick didn't mind. He was constantly impressed with how much the fair had to offer. He and his little group walked through the commercial building where merchants hawked their wares. Everything from hot tubs, to jewelry, to cowboy boots, to saltwater taffy could be found for sale. From there they went through one of the 4-H buildings where children\u2019s projects of all kinds were on display with blue, red, and pink ribbons attached. The state police had a booth at the fair, the men and women offering short safety seminars for children while passing out balloons and whistles. Rick and his girls passed by other booths selling everything from cotton candy, to encyclopedias, to t-shirts, to every type of trinket imaginable.\nThere were three different beer gardens where one could get a hot meal and cold brew while being entertained by a live band, the music ranging from rap to country. What impressed Rick the most was how clean everything was. There seemed to constantly be a young person wearing a shirt proclaiming Grounds Crew, who was picking up garbage that had missed containers, or cleaning one of the many bathrooms. The fair itself was almost like a small city with paved streets and concrete sidewalks, the only area being grass and dirt was that where the rides and games were set up.\n\"Geez, it must cost the state a fortune to keep this place up,\" Rick had said to A.J. on more than one occasion.\nThe detective walked slowly now as he read through a leaflet he had regarding special events occurring at the fair each day. \"Well, girls, we could go watch the fiddling contest for a while.\"\n\"Nooooo,\" the girls vetoed.\n\"Okay, how about the sibling look alike contest,\" he suggested.\n\"What's that?\" one of his nine-year-old charges asked.\n\"It's where judges vote on which set of brothers and sisters look the most alike,\" Rick explained while thinking with amusement that this was one contest he and A.J. wouldn't have a chance at winning.\n\"Sounds boring,\" April spoke for all the girls.\n\"Okay...hey, here's one. The state pom-pom girls competition. Pom-pom girls from all across the state of California compete to take home a trophy for best squad in the area of routines performed, enthusiasm, and gymnastic ability,\" Rick read from the leaflet. \"Come on, girls, let's go watch that.\"\n\"Rick, you said we could look for A.J.,\" Lauren reminded. \"Besides, I don't think you should be watching pom-pom girls.\"\n\"'Cause you're too old for that kind of stuff. Now come on, let's find A.J.\"\n\"Yeah, let's find A.J.,\" was heard from the ranks, thereby out voting Rick's choice of entertainment.\n\"You girls just aren't gonna let me have any fun, are ya'?\" Rick muttered as he followed after his charges.\nThe girls were headed back toward the Midway when one of them pointed and exclaimed, \"There he is! There's A.J.!\"\nRick looked around the immediate area. \"Where?\"\n\"Up there!\" Lauren pointed.\n\"What the...is he doing up there?\" Rick asked as he and the girls took off running.\nRick came to a halt at the bottom of a three hundred foot platform. He recognized a pack of familiar boys.\n\"Jason, what's goin' on?\"\nJason gestured skyward. \"A.J.'s gonna bungee jump, Rick.\"\n\"He's gonna do what?\"\n\"Bungee jump.\"\n\"Whose idea was that?\" Rick asked as he looked up.\n\"A.J.'s,\" Jason replied.\n\"It figures,\" Rick muttered.\n\"Rick, is A.J. gonna get hurt?\" a worried April asked.\n\"Nah, darlin.\u2019 The worst that will happen is he'll land on his head. That won't affect him any, believe me,\" Rick scoffed with more assurance than he felt.\nThe crowd of people surrounding Rick looked up as one, squinting into the late morning sun as they watched A.J. get ready to make his jump. The man running the attraction gave last minute instructions to the blond, then, A.J. turned so he would be jumping off the platform backwards.\nUsing a bullhorn, the operator enticed the crowd.\n\"Okay, folks, on the count of three yell, Geronimo, and A.J. will jump. But first let's give him a big round of encouraging applause.\"\nThe crowd clapped and cheered, the boys from the 4-H club yelling, \"Go, A.J.!\"\n\"All right, A.J.!\"\n\"Jump, A.J.! Jump!\"\nRick stood shaking his head, watching as A.J. let the operator know he was ready.\nThe children joined in on the count as the bullhorn echoed, \"One! Two! Three!\"\nAll on the ground, save for Rick, finished with a loud, GERONIMO!, as A.J. dived backwards off the platform. For a few seconds the blond man was free falling through the air. Just as the top of his head was about to rake the large safety bag on the ground, the elastic of the bungee cords harnessed to A.J.\u2019s ankles yanked him back up, bringing him almost as high as the platform once again.\nThis action repeated itself several times while the children clapped and cheered, the older boys calling, \"Way to go, A.J.! Way to go!\"\nRick simply stood there, still shaking his head at his brother's foolishness as the kids ran to greet A.J. once his feet were on the ground.\nThe children surrounded A.J. as he approached his brother.\n\"That was so cool, A.J.,\u201d Jason said. \u201cI wish I could do it.\"\n\"Sorry, Jason, the sign says you have to be twenty-one,\" A.J. informed the young man, glad he didn't have to take responsibility for any teenage boys who might want to bungee jump.\n\"Oh, yeah, A.J., that was real cool,\" Rick chastised as soon as his younger brother came abreast of him. \"You coulda' killed yourself doin' a damn fool stunt like that!\"\nA.J. was rather taken aback by Rick's reprimand. Rick had always been such a dare devil that it was usually him pulling the 'damn fool stunts.\u2019 A.J. was surprised by his brother's obvious disapproval.\n\"There was nothing to it, Rick,\" A.J. shrugged, still glowing from his adventure. \"It was fun! You should try it.\"\nRick took a long look up the platform A.J. had just jumped from. \"No way,\" he declared.\n\"But, Rick, look at the neat shirt A.J. got for jumping,\" Lauren said. A white short sleeve t-shirt was held up for the older man to see that announced on the front in sky blue lettering, I JUMPED THE BUNGEE, and on the back proclaimed, GERONIMO!\n\"Yeah, that's real neat,\" Rick agreed. \"But not worth riskin' your life for.\"\n\"Hey, Rick's a chicken!\" Jason took glee in announcing. That good-natured teasing prompted the children and A.J. to begin chanting in sing-song voices, \"Rick is a chicken, Rick is a chicken, Rick is a chicken.\"\n\"I'm not chicken!\" Rick shouted in an effort to shut everyone up.\n\"Sure you are,\u201d Jason challenged. \u201cIf you're not, then you'll jump.\"\n\"I'm not jumping because it cost seventy-five bucks. If A.J. wants to spend his money in such a foolish way, that's his business.\"\n\"You'd know about foolish ways to spend money,\" A.J. quipped.\n\"Shut up,\" Rick growled, not enjoying being exposed as a chicken - something he was definitely not used to.\n\"Okay, Rick, then how about if me and the guys come up with seventy-five bucks? Will you jump then?\" Jason asked, his friends eagerly nodding their agreement.\nRick thought a moment, then, counter offered with, \"If you guys can come up with one hundred bucks, I'll jump.\"\n\"A hundred!\" Jason exclaimed. \"But it only costs seventy- five.\"\n\"Yeah, but I want a little something leftover for my trouble,\" Rick justified.\n\"Okay, a hundred it is,\" the teen agreed. \"Deal?\"\nRick shook Jason\u2019s hand, confirming, \"Deal,\" before calling to all the kids, \"Come on now, it's almost noon. We've got to get back to the barn. Mrs. Timmons has a picnic lunch waitin\u2019 for us, and then you have to get your animals ready.\"\nThe kids began heading off in the direction of the barn, Rick and A.J. following several paces behind.\n\"I don't think you should have made that deal with Jason if you really don't want to jump, big brother. He'll hold you to it, you know.\"\n\"Ah, I ain't worried,\" Rick scoffed. \"The kid will never be able to raise that kind of money. Bev doles out their food money from their club treasury, and their parents only sent enough spending money along for games, rides, and snacks. No kid's gonna give up his ride money to watch an old bald guy jump off a three hundred foot platform.\"\n\"I don't know about that,\" A.J. warned.\n\"As usual, kid, you worry too much,\" Rick commented before letting the subject drop for good.\nThat afternoon the Simons sat on metal bleachers in a large amphitheater watching the children show their sheep. The brothers had learned that today the animals weren't actually being judged, but rather, the kids were being judged on their showmanship abilities. This meant the judges were looking to see how well each child handled his or her animals. The animals that needed the least amount of guidance or hands-on leadership in the show ring were generally the animals that had been worked with the most. This particular round of judging was designed to inspire the children to do more than simply feed and water their 4-H project. It was designed to teach them that a show animal requires a lot of time, care, and commitment.\nA.J. sat on one side of the amphitheater in the top row of bleachers, while Rick sat on the other side in the bottom row. The bottom row still put Rick a good five feet above the large railed-off show ring.\nA.J. constantly scanned the crowd, looking for any sign of Lauren's father, or anyone else who might be acting out of the ordinary.\nThe children were divided into age groups for the judging, nine to thirteen year olds being considered junior showmen, while fourteen to eighteen year olds were considered senior showmen. In this particular contest, all the children would come away with a ribbon. This gave them all a chance to feel like winners and boost their self-esteem.\nA.J. and Rick watched proudly from their respective positions as Lauren led Virginia into the ring by her nylon halter. Each child picked only one of their sheep to show in the showmanship judging, generally the one that was the easiest to handle and least temperamental.\nThe large group of children and sheep came to stand in a circle on the amphitheater's graded dirt floor. The judges then instructed the kids to urge their sheep to move left, then move right, then step forward, step backward, and finally to parade their animals around the circle.\nBecause this judging involved other 4-H clubs as well from various areas of the state, the judging took a long period of time. While it was going on A.J. casually walked up and down the stairs of each aisle, glancing at the various parents and fair patrons in attendance. Rick remained seated where he was, as close to the show ring as possible without actually being in it.\nWhen the children were awarded their ribbons, Lauren received a blue. A wide smile lit her face as she held it up for Rick to see, then looked for A.J. She held it up again upon spotting A.J. standing in one of the aisles way up by the rafters. A.J. raised his hands and clapped them together silently three times in a gesture of, \"Good job!\"\nAll the kids hung the ribbons from their shirt pockets, the red and pink award winners then leading their animals from the ring.\nThe six remaining blue ribbon winners now competed for Champion Showman. Again the kids and the sheep were put through the paces. They paraded in a circle around the show ring six times as the four judges conferred back and forth in the middle of the circle. Finally a decision was reached and a plaque awarded. When that wooden plaque that read, California State Fair 1993, Champion Junior Showman Sheep Division, was handed out, it was Lauren who received it.\nRick's smile went from ear to ear as he clapped along with the rest of the crowd. The young girl once again held up her award for first Rick to see, then turned to find A.J. and repeated the motion.\nRick rose from his seat as the kids led their sheep out of the ring to make way for the senior showmen. He met Lauren as she came out of one of the amphitheater exit tunnels.\nRick was ready with a bear hug and praise. \"You did fantastic, sweetie!\"\n\"Did you see, Rick?\u201d Lauren asked as she hugged Rick back. \u201cDid you see all the show?\"\n\"I sure did.\u201d Rick said while taking Virginia's halter and leading her toward the barn. \u201cYou did great!\u201d\n\"Do you think A.J. saw...ah!\" the girl yelped in surprise before she received an answer.\nLauren was being swung through the air while being told, \"Of course I saw!\"\nA.J. too, gave and received a hug once he put Lauren back on the ground. \"You did a wonderful job,\" he told her. \"All your hard work really paid off. When we call your mom tonight you'll really have something to tell her.\"\n\"Yeah, I sure will,\" Lauren agreed as she gazed at her plaque. \"This is the best I've ever done. My first year I only got a red ribbon, then last year I got a blue, but I wasn't champion showman.\"\n\"Well, no matter what, you're a champ in my book,\" Rick announced as he put an arm around the girl\u2019s shoulder and gave her an affectionate squeeze.\nLater that afternoon Joy was reached at her hotel room and given the happy news, then Lauren insisted on calling her grandparents, as well. Joy's folks had planned to drive up to the fair for their granddaughter's competitions, but a flu bug that had left both grandparents feeling ill had prevented that.\nOnce she was through telling her grandma and grandpa everything she could think of, Lauren turned to Rick and handed him the phone. \"Grandpa wants to talk to you.\"\nAlthough he didn't want to, Rick accepted the receiver. \"Uh...yes, sir...uh, hello, sir.\"\n\"Richard Simon, is that you?\"\n\"Uh...yes, sir, it's me.\"\n\"Are you taking good care of my granddaughter?\"\n\"Uh...yes, sir, I am.\"\n\"You'd better be. Mark my words, young man, if anything happens to that little girl I\u2019ll hold you personally responsible.\"\n\"No, sir, nothing will happen to her. You have my word on that, sir,\" Rick replied, feeling very much sixteen all over again.\n\"Is your brother there, Richard?\"\n\"Uh...yes, sir, he is.\"\n\"I'd like to talk to him, please.\"\nRick was more than happy to hand the phone to A.J. and get off the line with the formidable Lyle Seddar.\n\"Hello, Mr. Seddar,\" A.J. greeted cheerfully, much to Rick's disgust.\n\"Hello, Andrew. Nice to talk to you. I appreciate what you and Richard are doing for Joy. She's very worried, you know.\"\n\"Yes, sir, I know. Things are going very well though.\"\n\"Good. I'm happy to hear it. Is your brother behaving himself, Andrew? Doing what he's supposed to be in regards to protecting my Lauren?\"\nA.J. smiled as he looked at Rick. \"Yes, sir, I can assure you he is.\"\n\"I suppose you charge more than a quarter now to keep Richard on his best behavior,\" Mr. Seddar joked.\nA.J. chuckled. \"Yes, sir, I do. But this one's a freebie for old time's sake.\"\n\"You're a good man, Andrew. Don't tell your brother this, but I was the one who insisted to Joy that she speak to the two of you about her problems. I told her that I had heard around town more than once that Rick and A.J. Simon are the best P.I.'s in the business. I wouldn't trust just anyone with my grandchild's life.\"\n\"I know that, Mr. Seddar. We appreciate your confidence in us. Believe me, we won't let anything happen to Lauren.\"\nA.J. turned the phone back over to Lauren so she could say her final goodbyes.\n\"What'd the old coot say?\" Rick whispered.\n\"A.J....\"\n\"He just wanted to make sure you're behaving yourself.\"\nBefore Rick could reply Lauren hung up the phone. She turned around to tease the detective. \"Grandpa told me to tell you to behave yourself.\"\nAs the three walked back to the barn Rick grumbled, \"Geez, some people just can't let go of the past. I'm almost fifty, and some old guy is still worrying about whether or not I'm behaving myself. Maybe I don't wanna behave myself. Maybe I want...\"\nLauren and A.J. just laughed at Rick's moaning and groaning, the moaning and groaning that continued until they finally reached the barn.\nThat evening was a relatively quiet one. The children were tired from the afternoon show, so once supper of pizzas was consume, the kids were willing to return to the barn to play cards or games, or just to visit with friends from other 4-H clubs.\nA.J. lay on his cot reading a book he had brought along while keeping an eye on Lauren. The shouts and laughter of the children echoed throughout the barn, as did the quiet murmur of adult conversation. Every once in a while A.J. would hear a chaperone admonish, \"Don't run in the barn!\" when a group of young boys started up a game of tag or football in one of the aisles.\nThe blond man looked across the tops of the pens to the opposite side of the barn to see Jason and his usual crowd, as well as Rick, seated around Jason's show chest, using it for a card table.\nGod only knows what he's teaching them, A.J. thought in reference to his brother and the deck of cards he held in his hand. The blond detective decided it was too much of an effort to get up and investigate, however.\nIf Bev doesn't approve, let her go over there and handle it. Rick won't listen to me anyway.\nStaying right where he was, reclining on his cot, sounded better to the tired A.J. than arguing with his brother. The muffled giggles of Lauren and April drew A.J.'s attention to the young girls who were seated on some wooden shelves that were mounted above the sheep pens. Both the girls held onto a long strand of fishing line that had been, with help from A.J., strung over a ceiling rafter. At the other end of the line each girl had attached a large rubber spider. The spiders were lowered on to unsuspecting fair patrons as they toured the barn admiring the sheep.\nWomen and men of all ages were caught off guard, screaming or exclaiming with fright when one of the spiders landed on their shoulder, or got tangled in their hair, or simply dangled in front of their faces. Because of the transparency of the fishing line many people couldn't figure out who was playing the trick on them as the girls retracted the lines quickly, pulling the spiders back up to the ceiling, then sitting there the picture of innocence, not even cracking as a smile.\nEveryone seemed to take the joke well, realizing that kids will be kids. A.J. himself was getting a kick out of the whole thing as he observed people's reactions to the girls' stunt. He was glad to see that there were still some children who knew the meaning of the phrase, \u2018good, clean fun.\u2019\nEveryone was in bed by ten thirty that evening. Not even the noise from the Midway could keep A.J. awake tonight. He barely remembered his head hitting the pillow before being sound asleep.\n\"Uh...what!\" The startled blond detective awoke suddenly somewhere around one a.m. Girlish giggles greeted the bleary eyed A.J. as he looked up into eight smiling faces.\nA.J. hiked himself up on one elbow. \"What's wrong, girls? What's going--\"\nIt was then that A.J. recounted. There were nine heads gathered around his cot, one with hair on its upper lip. \"Rick!\u201d A.J. exclaimed in a strained whisper. \u201cWhat the hel...heck is going on? What are you doing?\"\n\"The girls wanted to see what you look like when you're sleepin.\u2019\"\nA.J.'s voice was tight with hard sought after control. \"I'm not even going to ask what prompted this little field trip sponsored by Richard Simon. All I'm going to do is suggest that you, older brother, get these girls back to bed.\"\nRick recognized the danger that lurked behind A.J.'s tone. He rose and gathered up his charges. \"Okay, girls, show's over. See, he is ugly when he's asleep, and he's even uglier when he first wakes up.\"\nApril immediately came to A.J.'s defense. \"He's not ugly when he sleeps, Rick. And the only reason A.J. woke up mad was because you played a trick on him.\"\n\"See, there you guys go again, takin' blondie's side,\" Rick teased as he saw the girls off to their cots.\nOnce all eight of them were where they belonged, Rick chanced a look in his brother's direction, only to see that A.J.'s cot was empty. He grew puzzled when he caught sight of his brother's tennis shoes still sitting underneath the cot. If A.J. had gotten up to walk to the bathrooms that were several blocks down he surely would have put his shoes on first. Rick started for the entrance on the south end of the barn, stopping when A.J. appeared from the darkness.\n\"Where'd you go?\" Rick asked quietly as his brother approached him.\n\"I saw some guy standing in the doorway when you were getting the girls back to bed.\"\n\"Did you get a good look at him?\"\n\"If you mean do I think it was Bill, I don't know. No, I didn't get a good enough look at him. But, curiously enough, he took off running when I stepped outside. It's so dark though, that I lost him before I even got to the horse barn.\"\n\"You couldn't make out his hair color?\" Rick asked.\nA.J. shook his head. \"No.\"\nThe brothers had been given a picture of Bill by Joy, and had as well, studied various photos of him while they had been at her home. Lauren had gotten her fair hair and complexion from her father, as well as her pretty features. Joy's ex-husband was a handsome man with classic Nordic good looks, his blond hair so light it appeared to be white in the photos. Other than that he was of average build and height. Rick and A.J. had been counting on Bill's hair color to give him away.\n\"I don't know how much difference it will make even if we do get a good look at him,\" Rick commented. \"For all we know we might have seen him a hundred times in the past two days, or not at all. It's been a long time since Joy's seen him. His appearance coulda' changed a lot by now. He coulda' dyed his hair...hell, he might have even lost his hair for all we know.\"\n\"I know. I've thought of that too,\" A.J. agreed. \"All his threats may be just that, threats. He might not be within two thousand miles of this place.\"\n\"That's true, too. But, on the other hand, it is kinda strange that for two nights in a row now you've woken up to see someone standing in the doorway.\"\nA.J. shrugged. \"I'm not positive I did see someone last night, and as far as tonight goes, I didn't get a good enough look at the guy to even begin to guess if it was Bill or not.\"\n\"Yeah, but it's a little weird that the guy would take off runnin' like that, don't you think?\" Rick tossed back, not even realizing that he and A.J. were excelling at what they did best, batting around opposing ideas and opinions in an effort to obtain a solution to a problem.\n\"Rick, for all I know it could have been a teenager from one of the other barns who was afraid of getting caught out after curfew.\"\nRick studied his brother's face a moment. \"Is that what you really think?\"\nA.J. smiled slightly. Rick knew him too well. \"No, I guess that's not what I really think. He seemed to be built more like a grown man, and he moved like a man when he ran. He didn't have that loose, easy way of running you usually associate with kids. But there again, I can't really say for sure.\"\n\"There's not much we can do about it tonight,\" Rick finally decided. \"We might as well get back to bed. The show starts at eight thirty in the morning. I have a feeling it's gonna be a long day.\"\n\"I think you're right,\" A.J. agreed as he walked toward his cot.\n\"Hey, A.J.!\" Rick softly hailed on an afterthought.\n\"Sleep with one eye open.\"\n\"I should have been doing that earlier. If I had, I would have avoided waking up to a circle of giggling little girls at my bedside.\"\nRick chuckled softly to himself as he, too, returned to bed.\nThe next morning the entire barn was up at six. The adults worked with the children as they prepared for the busy day they had ahead of them. The chaperones, including Rick and A.J., had more than enough to do as they helped the children feed and water their animals, clean the pens, then made sure that everyone got off to the showers so the entire group could meet together for breakfast by seven thirty.\nA quick breakfast was eaten before the kids rushed back to the barn to brush their animals, then spray their hooves with a black polish that was buffed off with clean cloths.\nMrs. Timmons and her husband gathered the kids in a circle, reminding them as to what times their various shows were. Some of the club members were just showing rams, some just ewes, while others, like Lauren and Pete, had two sheep of the same sex that were siblings, and were shown in a category referred to as, 'matching pen of two.'\n\"Remember, if you're not in the show ring...boys, be quiet and listen,\" Bev interrupted to scold. \"If you're not in the show ring you are to be seated together on the bleachers watching the show and offering encouragement to your fellow club members. Pay attention to the clock so you can get back here in time to get your animals ready for their particular class. Mr. Timmons, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Holst, will be in here to help you. Does anyone have any questions?\"\nThe children were too excited to have any questions. All the kids over ten thought of themselves as old pros at this anyway. The nine-year-old novices had been assigned to a teenage club member who was to help guide them through this; their first livestock show.\nLauren sat next to Rick in the amphitheater watching the first class of animals show - yearling rams. A.J. did as he had on the previous day - casually walked up and down the aisles surveying the crowd.\nOn occasion Lauren would lean over to explain something to the inquiring Rick about the show as they watched a large group of children in all age brackets, from all clubs, compete on the show ring's floor.\nIt was an hour later before a judge announced over the P.A. system, \"Our next class to compete will be matching pen of two sheep born between August of '92 and January of '93. If your animals fall into that category you have ten minutes to get to the ring.\"\nFollowing that proclamation Lauren rose, Rick following behind her. Once back at the barn the girl quickly curried her sheep once more, then led them by their halters to the arena.\nJust before Lauren disappeared into the short concrete tunnel that went under the raised bleachers and came out in the show ring, Rick gave her a kiss on the forehead.\n\"Good luck, sweetheart.\"\n\"Thanks, Rick,\" the excited girl replied. She tugged on the halter in each hand urging, \"Come on, Lucky. Come on, Virginia,\" as she followed the other children into the tunnel.\nRick met up with his brother in one of the aisles before the show started. Over the conversations buzzing around them he asked, \"See anything?\"\n\"No,\" A.J. replied while scanning the area. \"But this place has got to be almost filled to capacity today.\"\n\"That means close to six thousand people,\" Rick commented grimly, knowing how easy it would be for Lauren's father to hide amongst the seated patrons.\n\"I'm gonna go down and sit by the railing like I did yesterday,\" Rick informed his brother. \"At least that way I'll be as close to the show ring as I can be in case he is here and tries to pull something.\"\nA.J. nodded his agreement as the kids began to file in. Rather than being dressed in the more casual look of their club shirts and hats today, all the children were instead dressed up for this big show.\nBoys and girls alike wore jeans, but many of the young men also wore western style string ties, some even adding a western cut sport coat. The girls wore western style blouses, many with ruffles down the front, some with brightly colored kerchiefs knotted at their necks.\nA.J. smiled fondly at the sight of Lauren in her maroon cowgirl blouse with the ruffles down the middle trimmed in black. She had a black kerchief tied to the side of her bare throat. He had watched Lauren polish her black cowboy boots that morning with the same lacquer she had used on the hooves of her sheep. Those boots gleamed now underneath the arena's bright lights.\nThe black felt cowboy hat perched on Lauren's head prompted A.J. to ask his brother, \"Where'd she get the hat?\"\n\"I bought it for her this morning. We spotted it at one of the vendor's booths on our way back from breakfast. I told her it would be just the thing she needs to make the judges take notice of her today.\"\nHaving heard that the kids liked to wear something that set them apart in the ring for the specific reason of drawing the judges' attention to their animals, A.J. commented, \"Good idea. She looks sharp. Heaven forbid, though, I do believe she's starting to dress like you.\"\n\"Only after she asked me about ten times, 'Do you think A.J. will like this hat, Rick,'\" the oldest Simon teased.\nA.J. smiled. \"I think we took a tomboy from Joy at the start of this trip, but will be returning a young lady.\"\n\"A young lady with a bad case of puppy love for someone named Andrew Simon,\" Rick pointed out.\n\"She'll get over it fairly quickly, I'm sure. I've caught her making eyes at Pete on several occasions recently.\"\n\"Ah...young love,\" Rick intoned with fond remembrance before heading down to the first row of bleachers.\nThe class was large, with thirty children and sixty sheep competing for Champion Pen of Two. It took the judges close to an hour to weed the showmen down to ten, Lauren and Pete among them.\nA.J. laughed to himself as Pete's rams, Rick and A.J., fought and scuffled out in the ring, definitely not on their best behavior today. A male judge finally had to step in and help the young boy get the combatants under control. Poor Pete, A.J. sympathized silently. I should have told him he's bound to have behavior problems with two rams he names for my brother and me.\nRick sat attentively watching the show. Though he wasn't quite sure what made up a Champion Pen of Two, the judges seemed to finally reach a collective decision after quite some time had passed. One of the female judges took the microphone and began explaining how they had reached their decision based on height, weight, wool coat, and overall appearance of the animals.\nThe pretty teenage fair queen, dressed in high heels, a red calf length dress, wearing a crown, and with a banner around one shoulder that read FAIREST OF THE FAIR, awarded the winning fifteen-year-old girl from the Happy Worker's club a trophy and large purple ribbon.\nRick was surprised, as well as pleased, when the next place given, Reserve Champion Pen of Two, was awarded to young Lauren. Like the previous day, the blond girl broke into a grin that slid from ear to ear when she was given her prizes. Once again she held her awards up for both Rick and A.J. to see.\nIt took another fifteen minutes for the remaining eight contenders to be given their placement ribbons and for the judges to briefly explain their reasons behind each choice.\n\"Let's give all our young people who have competed in this class a big hand for a job well done this morning,\" one of the judges encouraged as the last ribbon was handed out.\nThe children led their animals and filed out single file through the tunnel to the claps and cheers of appreciation from the audience.\nRick rose to meet Lauren as she came out of the tunnel, but had his path blocked by a group of elderly people who were exiting the amphitheater as well. He tried to make his way around the slow moving group, but to no avail. The arena was just too crowded today to make it possible for him to move as freely and quickly as he wanted to.\nRick was finally able to scurry down the steps and out into the bright sunshine. He stopped for a moment, looking both left and right for Lauren. He spotted her black hat and had just lifted an arm to draw her attention, when he felt someone knock hard against him. Rick caught just a flash of a red shirt as he was spun into the amphitheater's brick front, his back momentarily ending up turned to the action that was occurring around him.\nThe detective knew immediately what was going on when he heard a startled scream and a \"Put me down! Put me down!\" as well as the frantic cries of several children, \"Lauren! Lauren!\"\nRick turned in time to see a man disappear around a corner with seventy pound Lauren tucked under his arm like a football. Rick ran in the direction the man had taken, yelling over his shoulder to Jason and his buddies, \"Find A.J.! Tell him Lauren\u2019s been kidnapped! Then get the fair police!\"\nJustin and Travis took off running at full speed back into the arena in search of A.J., while Zack and Brian ran to look for the off duty Sacramento police officers who earned extra money by patrolling the fair grounds during the state fair's two week run.\nAlthough Jason wasn't sure what was going on, he was getting the impression that Rick and A.J. weren't mere extension agents from the main 4-H office. Something exciting was happening, and the adventuresome teen wanted to be a part of it.\nJason handed the wide-eyed Pete Lucky and Virginia's halters, as well as the dropped blue ribbon, plaque, and black cowboy hat. \"Here, hold these.\"\n\"Jason!\" Pete called after the rapidly departing youth. \u201cHey, Jason, where are you going?\u201d\n\"I'm gonna help Rick!\"\nMrs. Timmons came out of the arena with A.J. at just that moment. \"Jason! Jason, you get back here!\" she ordered.\nJason paid his group leader no mind, for which A.J. was grateful as he, too, took off running. He assumed the boy would lead him in the general direction Rick had taken.\nMrs. Timmons and the other chaperones were left behind to comfort the circle of confused and scared children. As their questions threatened to border hysteria, and some of Lauren's young girlfriends began to cry while exclaiming, \"Lauren's been kidnapped! Lauren's been kidnapped!,\" Bev took charge by ushering everyone back to the barn.\nRick ran as fast as his legs would carry him. He was slowed down considerably by the fact that he had to dodge strolling groups of fair patrons. He strained to keep sight of the man wearing the baseball cap and red shirt. Because of the crowd of tightly knotted people, Rick couldn't discern if the man was still carrying Lauren or not. He prayed that the guy hadn't passed her off to someone else in the confusion.\nWhen the red shirt disappeared around a corner Rick was familiar with, the detective knew without a doubt the man was headed for the vast parking lot. Fearing that someone could be waiting right at the gate with a running car caused Rick to increase his pace to a speed he hadn't thought possible.\nThe man was almost to his destination when he was momentarily slowed down by a large tram that crossed his path. Rick gained enough on the guy at that time to be able to see Lauren struggling for all she was worth, and to hear her cries of \"Daddy, put me down! Please, Daddy, put me down!\"\nRick now knew for certain whom he was chasing.\nA.J. and Jason came abreast of Rick at just that moment, the two detectives so intent on their job that they didn't take the time to tell the teen to get lost.\nBill Kline might just have made it out to the parking lot and to his car that day if it hadn't been for six young mothers grouped together pushing infants in strollers while holding the hands of toddlers. As Bill tried to maneuver around this group the toe of his shoe got caught by the wheel of a stroller. He tripped and fell hard to the ground, taking Lauren with him.\nBefore Bill had a chance to get his wits about him Rick was on him, hauling him roughly to his feet.\nA.J. moved to help the scraped and scared Lauren up, while at the same time keeping an eye on his brother. When Rick's fist drew back A.J. rebuked, \"Rick! Don't! Stop it!\"\nRick was halted, not by A.J.'s words, but rather by the glimpse he caught of Lauren. The little girl was watching him with rapt attention, her eyes saucer round, her face pale and full of sorrow.\nIt took Rick a minute to calm down. He kept a firm grip on Bill's shirt and turned to instruct Jason, \"Go find the cops.\"\nThe boy nodded before dashing off in the direction of the fair's main office.\nRick flung Bill back against the chain link fence that separated the fair grounds from the parking lot. The man didn't even attempt to struggle out of the detective\u2019s grasp, but simply began weeping with despair.\n\"I just want my daughter. I just want my little girl.\"\nRick looked over at Lauren who was crying in A.J.'s arms, her head buried in his shoulder. He couldn't hear what A.J. was saying to the girl, but he could see that his younger brother was speaking to her quietly, no doubt offering the frightened and confused child what comfort he could.\nRick looked back at the man he had pinned to the fence, surprised to find himself feeling pity for Bill as his sobs became more intense and he repeated, \"I just want my daughter. I just want to be her daddy again.\"\n\"There's better ways to go about it, pal,\" was all Rick said as four uniformed police officers approached the pair.\nThe next morning everyone was considerably calmer than they had been the previous day. Rick, A.J., and Lauren had spent most of the previous afternoon at Sacramento's police station giving their statements pertaining to the events that had transpired. The other children who were witnesses to the attempted abduction were questioned by the police at the fair grounds.\nA lengthy call was made to Joy from the police station. It ended with Lauren assuring her mother that she was okay, and that yes, she still wanted to stay at the fair and come home with her friends in two days as originally planned. Joy reluctantly agreed after talking a final time with Rick, who told her he thought that perhaps in this situation they should bow to Lauren's wishes. He ended the conversation by promising the upset mother that he would call if Lauren changed her mind so that Joy could come pick them up.\nRick spent quite a bit of time that evening and the next morning with Lauren, answering her many questions and calming her fears. Ironically enough, her biggest concern was over what would happen to her father because of this incident. She was torn between wanting to see him punished for frightening her like that, and wanting to see him freed simply because he was her dad. Like her mother, Lauren didn't understand why he just hadn't taken advantage of the visitation schedule that had been granted when the divorce was finalized. Why had he felt the need to cause all this trouble?\nFor that Rick's only answer was, \"Sometimes, sweetie, when a person has pulled away from his family like your dad did, and then gets real lonely and finds himself far from home...well, it kinda makes him do crazy things. Things he wouldn't do if had his family nearby for support.\"\n\"But why, Rick?\" Lauren had asked him.\n\"I don't know, babe. All I know is that it happened to me once a long time ago, when I came back from Vietnam and chose not to turn to my family for help through the rough times. If A.J. hadn't come along and insisted I needed someone, even while I was insisting I didn't...I don't honestly know what might have happened to me. But I can guarantee you, I wouldn't be sittin' here talkin' to you today.\"\n\"Because you'd be in jail like my dad?\" Lauren asked.\n\"I don't know. Maybe. Or worse. Maybe dead. For a long time I didn't care, Lauren, about myself, or about anyone else. It wasn't until A.J. showed up on my doorstep in Florida one morning that all that began to change. He made me realize that in order to survive the hard times I did need my family. In the business A.J. and I are in I've seen it happen to plenty of other people, too. I wish I could tell you why, but I can't. I really don't know.\"\nLauren accepted the hug Rick offered her. She sought comfort in his arms as she realized, for the first time, that there aren't always answers to life's happenings.\nLater that afternoon the Simon brothers treated Lauren and her girlfriends to ice cream cones and cotton candy in an effort to raise the girl's spirits. It seemed to help somewhat, Rick thought, as he got Lauren to laugh a few times and later caught her flirting with A.J.\nThe brothers and their group of eight girls walked down one of the fair's streets while licking at their rapidly melting ice cream cones. Rick had just offered to take everyone to the Midway, declaring, \"We'll ride 'till we puke, girls!,\" while A.J. simply shook his head at his Peter Pan brother.\nThe sound of running footsteps overtook the group before they got any farther. Jason's shouts of, \"Hey, Rick! Hey, A.J.! Wait up!\" brought everyone to a halt.\nJason pulled on Rick's arm. \"Hey, Rick, come on! We got it!\"\n\"Slow down. Wait a minute. You got what?\" the confused Rick asked.\n\"The money,\" Jason explained while waving ten and twenty dollar bills in Rick's face.\n\"Money for what?\"\n\"For your bungee jump! Come on!\"\nRick jerked his arm from Jason's grasp. \"Now just hold on a second.\"\n\"Come on, Rick, you can't back out. You shook on it and everything,\" Zack reminded while giving the reluctant Rick a little push from behind.\n\"Yeah, see, Rick. Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, sixty, eighty, one hundred,\" Jason showed Rick the bills as he counted them out.\n\"Yeah...but...uh...see...\"\nBefore the detective could get anymore out the boys ganged up on him, Jason and Brian each taking an arm while Zack, Travis, and Justin pushed him from behind.\nOver Rick's protests Jason spotted Mr. and Mrs. Timmons, the chaperones, and the rest of the 4-H club coming out of a restaurant. He beckoned with the wave of an arm and a holler at the top of his lungs, \"Hey, you guys! Rick's gonna bungee jump!\"\n\"Now just...uh...just wait a minute...I...,\" was all Rick managed to get out as he was being propelled toward the bungee attraction.\n\"Come on, Rick,\u201d Brian admonished. \u201cYou made a deal.\"\n\"Yeah, Rick, you made a deal,\" A.J. took great delight in reminding.\nRick didn't have a chance to do more than growl at his sibling as the group behind him prodded him steadily along.\nBy the time they got to the bungee jump area the entire 4-H club was with them. The children\u2019s enthusiasm had caused a large crowd of fair patrons to gather out of curiosity as to what was going on.\nRick looked at the throng of strangers, then up, up, up, to the bungee platform high above his head.\nFacing the boys, he tried again. \"Uh...look guys, I've got this old war injury that bothers me now and then, and--\"\nJason pushed Rick toward the cage that would lift him to the platform. \"You're not backing out, Rick,\" he stated firmly.\n\"No...no, I'm not backing out. I'm just telling you that I don't think I can--\"\nJason ignored Rick, snatched the detective's cowboy hat off his head, then handed the man in charge seventy-five dollars.\n\"I'll hang onto the other twenty-five for you, Rick, until you're back down.\"\n\"Oh, yeah, like I'm really gonna need it after I'm dead,\" Rick muttered before the bungee man took charge of him.\nRick was given an explanation as to the safety procedures necessary for bungee jumping, then the cage he and the operator were in was slowly lifted upward by a crane. A grinning Jason began to chant, \"Go, Rick! Go, Rick! Go, Rick!\" The other club members picked up on the chant as well, all chorusing as one, \"Go, Rick! Go, Rick! Go, Rick!\"\n\"You've got quite a fan club down there,\" the operator commented with a smile.\n\"So I hear,\" Rick reluctantly acknowledged, looking down to see the large crowd below him grow smaller and smaller. All the eager faces looking up with anticipation made Rick realize that backing out at this point would mean total humiliation, plus he'd never hear the end of it from Jason and his buddies, not to mention A.J.\nUpon arriving at the top of the attraction the bungee cords were harnessed to Rick's ankles. It was then demonstrated to him how secure and safe this procedure was.\nRick was skeptical. \"How many people have died doing this?\"\n\"Not a one,\" the muscle bound young man chuckled. He pointed down at A.J., \"As a matter of fact, that blond guy down there in the crowd jumped the other day.\"\n\"Yeah, well just between you and me, that blond guy's got a mental health condition his family doesn't like to talk about.\"\nThe man gave Rick an odd look before passing along further instructions that were guaranteed to make his jump a pleasant one.\nRick took a long look down at the crowd again. The children\u2019s laughter and shouts drifted up to him. Lauren held up a camera while hollering, \"Hey, Rick, I've got a camera! I'm gonna take your picture for my mom!\"\nRick gave Lauren a weak smile and wave as he got into position.\n\"Aw, Rick, you big chicken! Jump like a man!\" A.J. shamed from below, referring to the fact that he had jumped off the edge of the platform backwards. That position was considered to be more frightening and daring than jumping frontward as Rick was proposing to do.\n\"Yeah, Rick, jump like a man!\" Jason called before starting a new chant with the children.\n\"Jump like a man! Jump like a man! Jump like a man!\"\n\"I'm gonna kill A.J. if I live through this,\" Rick vowed to himself.\n\"It's easy, buddy. Nothin' to it,\" the young operator assured the nervous Rick. The detective finally gave into the children\u2019s chants and carefully repositioned himself on the platform.\n\"You ready?\" the man asked Rick.\n\"As ready as I'll ever be, I suppose.\"\nThe operator picked up his bullhorn, \"Okay! On the count of three, everyone yell Geronimo and Rick here is going to jump!\"\nThe children\u2019s excitement spilled over to even the spectators who didn't know Rick. Everyone counted together, \"One! Two! Three!\" then all yelled as one, \"GERONIMO!\"\nRick took a deep breath, closed his eyes, said a brief prayer, then jumped. \"Ahhhhhhhhh!,\" he was heard to scream on the way down and, \"Oooooh shiiiit!,\" as the bungee cords pulled him back up in the air time and time again like a yo-yo.\nAfter what seemed like an eternity to Rick, his momentum finally came to a halt. When his feet were back on solid ground he was immediately surrounded by clapping, cheering kids who praised his efforts.\n\"That was great, Rick!\" Pete offered.\n\"Rick, you were so cool,\" Jason admired.\n\"Rick, you're so brave,\" April told him.\n\"Hey, Rick, did you know you screamed the whole way down?\u201d Justin asked. \u201cIt was neat.\"\nThe boys patted their warrior on the back, while Lauren and her girlfriends took turns hugging his waist.\nWhen all the accolades had been doled out Rick wiped at the perspiration coating his pale face, put his hat back on his head, staggered through the crowd, and headed straight for the beer stand across the way. At this point in time the detective didn't much care as to what kind of an example he set.\nJason and his friends, Lauren and hers, as well as A.J., followed Rick, standing with him as he gulped down a cold beer.\nA.J. patted his still shaky brother on the back. \"That was good, big brother. You looked great up there. Now, I do have to admit that scream on the way down did take away somewhat from your reputation as a hard nose ex-Marine, however.\"\n\"Oh, shut up,\" Rick sneered at his laughing sibling.\nThe children chattered on through Rick's second beer about his jump, all contributing the parts of it they each liked best. When Rick threw his empty cup away Jason handed him the money he owed him. \"Here's your twenty-five bucks, Rick. You earned it.\"\n\"Thanks, kid,\" Rick acknowledged while pocketing the cash.\n\"Hey, A.J., thanks for the mon...ooof!\" Justin finished as he got an elbow in the ribs from Jason.\n\"What money?\" Rick asked suspiciously.\nJason's eyes grew wide. \"Um...no money. Justin doesn't know what he's talkin' about.\"\n\"What money, Jason?\" Rick asked firmly.\nJason's eyes dashed from Rick to A.J., who was standing behind his brother, frantically signaling the boy to keep his mouth shut.\n\"No money, Rick,\u201d Jason lied. \u201cNo money at all.\"\nRick turned to face his brother. \"What money?\"\nA.J. shrugged. \"I don't know what they're talking about.\"\nRick swung around, eyes narrowing. \"Jason, what money?\"\n\"Money? Did someone say something about money? I didn't hear anything about money.\"\nRick advanced on the boy with a menacing look to his eye. \"Justin said money, Jason. What money was he talkin'\nJustin, who wasn't so sure Rick was just fooling around and found the oldest Simon brother to be rather scary, encouraged with a whisper, \"Just tell him, Jason. Just tell him.\"\n\"Yeah, Jason, come on. Tell me,\" Rick said as he grabbed the teen by the shirtfront. \"You were in charge of the money, so you should know what Justin's talkin' about.\"\nJason nervously chewed on his lower lip. Like Justin, he wasn't so sure Rick was kidding around. On the first day of this trip Jason had come to the conclusion that Rick Simon wasn't a man to be messed with. The large, firm hand now gripping his shirtfront only served to emphasize that fact.\nThe boy threw a glance over Rick's shoulder at A.J. that plainly said, \"Sorry\", before spilling his guts.\n\"Well, you see, Rick...well, it was like this. See, us\nkids didn't have a lot of money 'cause of the rides and games and all, so when...uh...when me and the guys collected from everyone we could only come up with twenty dollars.\"\n\"Yeah, so where did the rest of it come from?\" Rick asked, keeping up the act of being furious over this little prank.\n\"Well...uh...well it came...well we got it from--\"\nRick's grip on Jason's shirt collar tightened. \"You know, kid, in Nam I once ripped a guy's tongue right outta his head for not given me an answer fast enough.\"\n\"A.J. gave us the rest,\" came out in a nervous rush of words.\nRick slowly nodded his understanding while echoing, \"A.J. gave you the rest.\"\n\"Yeah, he told us whatever we couldn't raise ourselves for your jump, that he'd make up the difference,\" Jason was all too willing to confess.\nRick released the teen, spun around, and began advancing on his brother.\nA.J. walked slowly backwards, hands held up with his palms turned outward. \"Now, Rick, it was just a joke.\"\nFor each step backward A.J. took, Rick countered it by stepping forward. \"Just a joke, huh?\"\n\"Yeah, a joke.\"\n\"Well, I don't think it was very funny,\" Rick growled.\n\"You've played plenty of jokes on me that I didn't think were very funny either,\" A.J. tossed back.\n\"Yeah, but I never made you jump three hundred feet through the air with nothing but a couple of giant rubber bands for support.\"\nBy now the children had caught on to Rick's act, coming to realize that he wasn't really mad at A.J., but that this was some kind of brotherly game. Lauren and her friends formed a circle around A.J. in an effort to protect him.\n\"Don't hurt A.J., Rick,\" Lauren pleaded with a laugh.\n\"You girls better get outta my way 'cause I'm not gonna hurt him, I'm gonna kill him!\" Rick roared as he charged at the girls, sending them screaming and scattering in all directions like barnyard chickens.\nLeft unprotected, A.J. was caught off guard when he was tackled and driven to his knees. The Simon brothers went down in a heap, Rick throwing light, playful punches at A.J.'s ribs and midsection. \"That'll teach ya' to play a joke on me,\" Rick said while giving A.J. a thorough tousling, then holding him in a kneeling position on the ground in a firm headlock.\n\"Okay, okay, you win,\" came A.J.'s muffled voice. \"Let me go, I'm eating dirt here.\"\n\"Say uncle,\" Rick taunted with a joke that went back to childhood. \"No...better yet, say Geronimo.\"\nA.J. looked up at his brother the best he could. Amidst the children\u2019s laughter at the grown men\u2019s silliness he said, \"You've got to be kidding me.\"\nRick shook his head as he tightened the hold he had on his brother. \"No. If you want up you've gotta say Geronimo.\"\n\"I'd rather die first,\" the stubborn A.J. stated.\nLauren thought A.J. looked uncomfortable kneeling in the dirt and was worried about him so pleaded, \"Just say it, A.J. Please.\"\n\"Never!\" A.J. declared.\nRick's eyes twinkled as he looked up at Lauren and her friends. The fingers of his left hand poked A.J.'s ribs lightly. \"I know how to make him say it, girls.\"\nA.J. began to struggle. \"Rick, don't! Don't you dare!\"\n\"See, he's got this ticklish spot right here,\" Rick gave the spot a firm rake with his fingers causing A.J. to squirm away while unintentionally laughing. \"Now, if we were all to tickle him at one time I'll bet he'd say--\"\n\"Okay, okay, Geronimo,\" A.J. gave in.\n\"What was that?\u201d Rick asked as he tickled a little harder. \u201cI couldn't hear you, A.J.\"\n\"Geronimo!\" A.J. got out in a burst of laughter.\nRick looked at the laughing children. \"Did you guys hear that?\"\n\"No!\" the kids all agreed, enjoying the fun.\n\"I'll get you for this, Rick,\" A.J. muttered.\nRick's fingertips moved again against sensitive ribs. \"What was that?\"\n\"Nothing! Nothing! I said Geronimo!\"\n\"What?\" Rick laughed.\n\"GERONIMO!\" A.J. yelled at the top of his lungs, rewarded for his efforts by finally being released from his brother's hold.\nRick laughed while helping his sibling to his feet. \"That's much better.\"\nJason's cry of, \"Monkey pile on Rick!\" brought all the children to A.J.'s defense. Rick landed back on the ground with thirteen kids piled on top of him.\n\"Don't hurt him,\u201d A.J. instructed as he walked away. \u201cBut don't let him up until he says Geronimo.\"\nRick turned his head as much as possible, seeing his brother's tennis shoes moving away from him. \"A.J.! Hey, A.J.! A.J. get back here and get these kids off of me!\"\n\"Not until you say Geronimo,\" A.J.'s voice came somewhere from the distance.\nRick quickly gave in under the weight of the laughing children, yelling as loud as he could, \"Geronimo! Geronimo! Hey, you guys! I said Geronimo! Geronimo! GERONIMO! GEROOOOONIMO!\"\nAnd with that final call, the children rolled off of Rick. The laughing man was helped to his feet. They had another full day yet before they\u2019d be headed home. As the detective and the kids walked back to the barn, Rick mulled over all the ways he\u2019d pay his brother back in the next twenty-four hours, before their fun at the state fair came to a close.",

        "raw_content": "Our favourite photolithographic process is back! Yes, the photochrom, today bringing us views of Cornwall, England. Cornwall is the subject this time around because English photochroms are fairly new on the LoC's Flickr photostream, it's a wonderful place to visit, and I have ancestry there. In fact my great-great grandfather was just leaving about the time these were being made.\nca. 1890s-1900.\nSt. Ives. Source\nThe entrance to the harbour at Boscastle. Source\nCalstock, Morwell Rock. Source\nLabels: 19th century, photochroms, United Kingdom\nThe misery of World War One is a recurring theme in this blog, with the implicit question \"how could they make anyone go through this hell?\". Today we have a new installment, from a new source. The majority of World War One photographs here have been official British photographs (from the National Library of Scotland), made within specific guidelines to be published in the press. While there are nonetheless some striking action shots, and the overall misery can't be denied, their depictions of the war are heavily influenced by the vision the government wanted to project--a), that these men are heroes, and b) overall it's not that bad. Most action scenes are posed and/or performed for the camera in back-line trenches. Well-fed and smiling faces are emphasized, as are peaceful scenes. Most photographs of wounded soldiers emphasize the care they are given. Dead bodies are always identified as Germans; the British dead are pictured only in graves. We've looked also at some Australian WWI photographs, American ones, and even French autochromes, all fitting into this trend.\nRecently, though, I found a set of Canadian WWI photographs, from Library and Archives Canada (who are on Flickr, but not the Commons). Though the named photographers-- William Ivor Castle, Henry Edward Knobels, and William Rider-Rider-- were official photographers, there seem to be quite a few different kinds of views. Notably there are more action shots, taken under fire, more similar to later photojournalist war photography. (even if, as should be noted, shots were sometimes altered-- shrapnel bursts from one photograph's sky might have been added to that of a another). Overall there seems to be a more frank depictions of the honesty of war than in the British official photographs, which I feel is worth a long look.\nTroops dig themselves in while shrapnel bursts overhead, Vimy Ridge, 1917. Source\nA tank in a muddy, shelled landscape, Passchendaele, 1917. Source\nThe battlefield near Courcelette, October 1916. Source\nLabels: Canada, photojournalism, World War One\nPeople have been tinting photographs since the beginning of photographs, from touches of colour on the cheeks and lips of a daguerreotype, to splashes on cloth in a carte-de-visite, to intense dyes on commerical hand-tinted postcards. Sometimes the effect is subtle, sometimes garish, sometimes exceptionally beautiful. Today's photographs are the last.\nThis set of photographs was taken by Japanese photographer Kusakabe Kimbei in the late nineteenth century. As most of his clients were foreign, and the scenes emphasize traditional activities and costumes, I beleive it is likely that they were produced as views for visitors to Japan to take home, though I'm not certain. The collection to which they belong, the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego, says nothing either way, unfortunately. If I discover more in the future I shall update.\nUpdated to add: many more tinted Japanese photographs of this time period can be found in the Harvard College Library--thanks to a Twitter follower for sharing this!\nAll captions are the titles given by the Museum of Photographic History.\nA Tete-a-Tete.

Some are rather cute and a couple are even quite risque for the time (though still far from the outright sexuality of these 1920s stereographs). Unfortunately these reproductions from the Library of Congress only show half of the stereograph, losing the effect. Nor are they the best quality, being fairly old, black and white copy negatives. Still, pretty fun!\nMostly published 1906, unless otherwise noted.\n\"Sovereigns of love's domain.\" Source\n\"He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not.\" Source\n\"By the old tree.\" Source\nLabels: 1900s/10s, love, stereographs\nOf course at this blog we love love, so despite my general indifference to Valentine's Day, we're going to have a series of romance-themed posts leading up to it. Today, a selection from my personal collection. Hand-coloured photo postcards like these were popular from the late 1900s to the early 1930s, though the romance ones were especially big in the 1920s and 1930s. They were made in France, but quite popular in England as well.\nThe dyes are exceptionally bright, brighter in person than in reproduction. Some of them also have a metallic sheen. Many are written, but in French (of which I know very little) so full/better translations will have to wait. Interestingly, none of the written ones were mailed or intended to be (no address, writing over the spot for the stamp, etc), so they must have been given to the recipients. I am still working on researching the social context, but for now, aren't they grand?\n[Since the original post I have collected several hundred of these cards and done a heap of research with them-- visit my site Mille Baisers for an online collection and more information!)\nThe handwriting is this one is very hard to read but with words like \"beloved\" and \"tender\" in it (in French), I think we can say it's a love note.\nDated the 29th of September, but no year. \"In response to your sweet letter, take my dearest love, my best kisses, and my good thoughts.Soon, Marie.\" (translated)\nDated 17 June, 1924. The back is packed with writing in purple ink from Raymond to Irene.\nLabels: 20s/30s, love, postcards, tinting",

        "raw_content": "THE WORD jeremiad means a doleful and thunderous denunciation, and its derivation is no mystery. There was nothing in need of denunciation that Jeremiah didn't denounce. He denounced the king and the clergy. He denounced recreational sex and extramarital jamborees. He denounced the rich for exploiting the poor, and he denounced the poor for deserving no better. He denounced the way every new god that came sniffing around had them all after him like so many bitches in heat; and right at the very gates of the Temple he told them that if they thought God was impressed by all the mumbo-jumbo that went on in there, they ought to have their heads examined.\nWhen some of them took to indulging in a little human sacrifice on the side, he appeared with a clay pot, which he smashed into smithereens to show them what God planned to do to them as soon as he got around to it. He even denounced God for saddling him with the job of trying to reform such a pack of hyenas, degenerates, ninnies. \"You have deceived me,\" he said, shaking his fist. You are \"like a deceitful brook, like waters that fail\" (Jeremiah 15:18), and God took it.\nBut the people didn't. When he told them that the Babylonians were going to come in and rip them to shreds as they richly deserved, they worked him over and threw him in jail. When the Babylonians did come in and not only ripped them to shreds but tore down their precious Temple and ran off with all the expensive hardware, he told them that since it was God's judgment upon them, they better submit to it or else; whereupon they threw him into an open cistern that happened to be handy. Luckily the cistern had no water in it, but Jeremiah sank into the muck up to his armpits and stayed there till an Ethiopian eunuch pulled him out with a rope.\nHe told them that if they were so crazy about circumcision, then they ought to get their minds above their navels for once and try circumcising \"the foreskins of their hearts\" (Jeremiah 4:4); and the only hope he saw for them was that someday God would put the law in their hearts too instead of in the books, but that was a long way off.\nAt his lowest ebb he cursed the day he was born, like Job, and you can hardly blame him. He had spent his life telling the people to shape up, with the result that they were in just about as miserable shape as they'd have been if he'd never bothered, and urging them to submit to Babylon as the judgment of God when all their patriotic instincts made that sound like the worst kind of defeatism and treachery.\nHe also told them that, Babylonian occupation or no Babylonian occupation, they should stick around so that someday they could rise up and be a new nation again; and then the first chance they got, a bunch of them beat it over the border into Egypt. What's even worse, they dragged old Jeremiah, kicking and screaming, along with them, which seems the final irony: that he, who had fought so long and hard against all forms of idolatry\u2014the nation as idol, the Temple as idol, the king as idol\u2014should at last have been tucked into their baggage like a kind of rabbit's foot or charm against the evil eye or idol himself.\nWhat became of him in Egypt afterward is not known, but the tradition is that his own people finally got so exasperated with him there that they stoned him to death. If that is true, nothing could be less surprising.\nNewer PostJesus\nOlder PostJael",

        "title": "The Free Information Society - Gigante, Vincent \"The Chin\"",
        "raw_content": "Articles/Biographies/Criminals/Gigante, Vincent \"The Chin\"\nVincent Gigante was born in New York City on March 29, 1928. He grew up in Greenwich Village, which is part of Lower Manhattan. He started what looked to be a promising legitimate life, attending a specialized textile high school, but quit to work on a number of different jobs.\nIn 1946, Vincent began his short boxing career. Out of 24 fights, Vincent won 23, but he decided to quit anyways after a number of fights that didn't go so well. This was when he began a life of crime.\nVincent married a woman named Olympia Grippa in 1950 and fathered 5 children. On the side, he fathered 3 children with a mistress named Olympia Esposito.\nVincent was given his first big opportunity by Tommy Eboli to do a hit on the Genovese boss Frank Costello. Vincent really botched the hit badly, despite hours of target practice in his basement. Vincent found Costello in a hotel lobby and shot him with a shotgun in the head, but Costello's head was only grazed by the shot and survived. Despite surviving the hit, Costello stepped down from the position of Boss anyways.\nBy 1970 Vincent had reached status of capo and by 1980, he was serving as consiglieri to Tony Salerno. In 1981, the family boss, Salerno, had a stroke and was hospitalized. The family decided to appoint Vincent as the boss and Vincent proudly accepted the position.\nVincent employed an excellent strategy for escaping the law - acting insane. He did this by wandering through the streets in his bathrobe, mumbling to himself, grinning, and talking to thin air. His acting was so convincing that he evaded numerous charges. He beat a bribery charge by having psychiatrists tell the court that he was a paranoid schizophrenic and suffered from hallucinations. Eventually the charges were dropped altogether. To help the insanity act, he checked himself into St. Vincent's Psychiatric Hospital 22 times over 20 years.\nThe FBI was unable to convict Vincent until 1997 for 41 racketeering and conspiracy charges. He was put in jail until 2010 (a few years were added recently on charges of obstructing justice). Once in jail, he slowly dropped the act until it became known that it was all just feigned.",

Among attendees were the Prime Minister of Djibouti and Ministers, the High Commissioner, the Executive Secretary of IGAD, the Special Envoy for the Somali Situation, and the Regional Refugee Coordinator and Special Advisor to the High Commissioner for South Sudan. The Conference brought together regional policymakers, academics, educationists, bilateral partners and civil society members from different IGAD countries, in line with the CRRF.\nHarmonize practices on quality education across the IGAD Region;\nAlign education practices in the region with the New York Declaration and the CRRF by ensuring inclusive and universal quality education for all children (nationals and refugees) living in IGAD member countries, achieve SDG4 and Agenda 2063 on education, including taking into account the needs of local children in locations of refugee settlement, and exploring opportunities for synergies between humanitarian and development actors;\nEstablish a system for recognition of Education Diplomas across IGAD Member States; and\nExplore higher education opportunities for refugees both in hosting countries and in third countries interested in supporting refugee access to higher education.\nAs an outcome of the meeting, IGAD Member States established a strong foundation for improving standards not only for refugees, but for returnees and refugee-hosting communities.

        "raw_content": "The baby is the beginning of a new life in the universe and means a lot to the woman that births it and to the man that fathered it as well as to all of the people that the child will one day meet and change the lives of. From this level of importance we can gather that the baby as a dream symbol will have a fairly significant dream meaning. When you have a dream involving a baby, you should not ignore it, in fact you should be sure to consult a dream dictionary immediately when a dream of a baby occurs.\nDream Dictionary Africa\nMany Africans still live reclusive lives, in smaller outposts separate from the rest of society. They are not uncivilized, but operate on an entirely different cultural spectrum and preserve the way that their ancestors once lived. On the other hand, those rich from gold and oil live in comfort on the other side of the country and on top of all of this is strong political turmoil that threatens to split the country in two. However, what does it mean when you dream about Africa? Read on for your answer.\nDream Dictionary Affair\nDespite all of the ways that modern stances have progressed the way that sex is treated legally and socially, being in love with multiple people, or having sex with someone else when you are in a committed relationship is still extremely frowned upon. Whether or not this will ever change, it is still for the best that this taboo exists so as not to hurt the feelings of your significant other. But what does it mean when you dream of cheating on your partner? Find out by reading on.\nDream Dictionary AIDS\nThe AIDS virus works by attacking the immune system directly. Rather than having any awful symptoms by itself, the symptoms are actually rather benign. What it does is weaken your immune system to the point that even the smallest sniffle inducing cold will be totally deadly to you as your body will have no natural defense against it. If you have a dream about the AIDS virus though it probably means that you will need to do some self evaluation to figure out some things in your life. This is why.\nDream Dictionary Airplane Landing\nIf you are used to flying on a plane, then the fact that the plane landed safely should not be a surprise to you. The plane landing safely is an everyday occurrence, why should this be special? In a dream, everything has a special significance. This is why when you see a plane landing in your dream, you should try to find a little more in depth information about what this occurrence means.\nDream Dictionary Airplane Crash\nThe events of 9/11 did not help the public psyche in terms of having to worry about plane crashes. In fact it is because of the popularity of images and instances like this in real life and in media that people still think that being involved in a plane crash is fairly common. Truthfully it is rare to be in a plane crash, but then, there has to be another reason why so many people dream about it. What does this image mean when it is found in a dream?\nDream Dictionary Airport\nAirports open up for us thousands of gateways to new areas, giving us many options on where we want to go. Journeys that would take us years by foot now can be completed in the space of a few hours thanks to airplanes, and by extension airports. But what significance does the airport have on your dreams and what does it mean to dream of airports? That will be answered here.",

        "title": "Things That Make for Peace \u2013 Luke 19.41ff. \u2013 Grace Presbyterian Church",
        "raw_content": "The recent killings in Charleston together with the daily reports of evil and injustice in our cities make the lament of Jesus personal. Luke records in 19.41ff. \u201cAs Jesus drew near [Jerusalem] and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, \u201cWould that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.\u201d (ESV). Perhaps you, too long for peace, yet it eludes us. Looking the other way when people are afflicted does not work. We need peace, but do we know what makes for peace?\nNo doubt, Jesus prayed for the peace of Jerusalem just as David had exhorted in Psalm 122 \u2013 \u201cPray for the peace of Jerusalem.\u201d This was evidently in Jesus\u2019 heart as he looked upon the city that would crucify him within days. In this moment, his tears flowed and he lamented Jerusalem\u2019s ignorance -\u201cWould that you, even you, had known\u2026\u201d Jerusalem of all cities should have known. Her name means \u201cpossession of peace\u201d or \u201cfoundation of peace.\u201d But they knew nothing of it. Worse, they had no clue what would make it possible. How could this people fail to recognize the significance of unfolding events for the peace of the city? Clearly, though they thought they could see, they were blind.\nPerhaps they confused unity with peace. In many respects, the view of Jerusalem from a lofty position must have been magnificent. This was no ordinary week. Thousands upon thousands of people had come from many nations to celebrate the Passover. The view of David\u2019s city so alive as young and old anticipated a holy celebration must have evoked awe and wonder. Surely, the best of what God was doing in the world was found here! It wasn\u2019t perfect. Roman occupiers invited a measure of distress. Yet peace appeared to prevail. Ironically, man\u2019s greatest evil was about to be committed within her walls. Her unity would prove to be a unity of evil.\nJesus wept because Jerusalem did not even know what makes for peace. Luke\u2019s account is brief. The larger context of Jesus\u2019 teaching and life is essential. Yet even within these few verses, one can readily grasp what evoked his weeping. First, it is because of the consequences of ignorance. The city\u2019s future would not be pretty nor end happily. In fact, great suffering would culminate in total destruction. This was because \u201cyou did not know the time of your visitation.\u201d That word \u201cvisitation\u201d is the second reason for great sorrow and tears. Jesus refers to the very significant events leading up to his own crucifixion. It is his presence in Jerusalem that is the time of visitation. Though he should have been welcomed, he was opposed and killed.\nSo then, what does make for peace? What do we need for our communities to know true peace? It is this \u2013 the reception and welcoming of Jesus is the only basis for true peace. When he visits (though the preaching of the gospel) he is to be received with love and honored as Lord. When he is rejected, people should rightly expect the manifestation of his wrath and judgment.\nNow I am fully aware of how radical that sounds in today\u2019s world. I hope you recognize that it is radical. But, peace is not about the happy coexistence of good and evil. Tolerance of wickedness and injustice does not make for peace. That simply cannot be and the truth of this is self-evident. King Jesus is the prince of peace who upholds righteousness and destroys wickedness. Here, we pause and tremble a bit. What is the future for every city and community in the world? When Peter preached Jesus crucified as both Lord and Christ (Acts 2.36ff.) he called upon his hearers to repent. That is where peace begins. We must own our culpability, our wickedness, our sin and forsake it through repentance and faith if we are to ever know what makes for peace. That reality gives real meaningful hope in our day of division and conflict. No one can rightly claim superiority over another! No one should exalt themselves. We all must come with repentance and embrace of the one who delivers from sin and evil. We must come humbly by faith to Jesus who makes for peace. Pray for the peace of Byram and Jackson! Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!",

        "raw_content": "Film Poster Research Help\nThread starter harryrichards\nAs part of a research project into film posters, I'm looking to ask other designers what they consider to be a 'good' film poster. If anyone could give some examples of film posters they think are 'good' to them personally, and why they consider it to be so, that would be great. Beyond the design aspect, I'm looking into the emotional aspect, the impact of the film itself and the financial goals of the production and how it also impacts their opinion. I'll then compare the results of the public, designers and those involved in the film industry to see any patterns.\nReactions: hankscorpio and fisicx\nAnything by Saul Bass.\nAnd Drew Struzan.\nI spent a lot of time around Saul Bass's work, love his work too, though I've had to move away from a single designer. I've briefly looked through Drew Struzan's work alongside, Bill Gold, Phillip Gips/ Steve Frankfurt, Richard Amsel etc, though is there a word you would describe all 'good' film posters? Does the designer do something different to make it stand out? Innovative layout, use of typography or colour, or just a good idea?\nI can agree a lot of film posters are the same, though would you agree the original inspiration of the copies being 'good'? Like Struzan, I feel a lot of posters have copied his style.\nThe main image has to be key to it all, whether it's a photo or illustration, then the design works around that. There probably have been\ngood posters with only typography, but there can't be many. Then everything else fits around that. A good tag-line is often important too.\nI spent a lot of time around Saul Bass's work, love his work too, though I've had to move away from a single designer",

        "title": "How Do You Get Bed Bugs",
        "raw_content": "Bed bugs are not something you ever want to find in your home or business. Although they don\u2019t cause serious health problems, they are still unpleasant and unwelcome. They can occur in any type of building. However, hey are more likely in hotels, hostels, and other short-term rental accommodation. If you want to prevent bed bugs, knowing how an infestation begins is a good place to start. You should understand how they are spread so that you can do your best to avoid them. Read on to find out where bed bugs come from and how you can prevent them in your home or business.\nBed bugs are small insects that like to live in and around beds, as well as other areas in the home. They are blood-sucking creatures that will bite people, but they aren\u2019t dangerous. They don\u2019t pass on human diseases and don\u2019t even cause a skin reaction for some people. If they do cause a reaction, it is usually red and itchy bumps on the skin. Unlike some other bugs around your home or business, bed bugs can be spotted with the naked eye. They can be as long as 5mm ( a quarter of an inch) and can be brown, red or even yellow. If bed bugs are present, you may also be able to spot some other things. Eggs from bed bugs may appear as white spots, but they are very small and difficult to see. Another thing you might be able to see is the skin that bed bugs shed as they become adults. These casings appear as brown shells on beds.\nPeople often think of bed bugs as being associated with hygiene. However, they are not attracted to dirt or repelled by clean surfaces. Even a clean home or business can experience a bed bug infestation. For bed bugs to appear in your home or business, they need to be transported from elsewhere. They are common in short-term accommodation, such as hostels or motels. This is because there are many people going in and out. Tourists and travellers can spread them without realising. They may carry bugs in their clothing or luggage, either as live insects or eggs.\nUnfortunately, bed bugs can also spread through a building. They can get into small cracks and holes so that they can move through walls and doors. This means that if one room is infested in a hotel, they could soon begin to move to the rest of the building. This could also occur in a block of apartments or other residential buildings. Bed bugs can begin to infect another room in as little as seven weeks. They could also be brought into a residential or commercial building in furniture or other infested items such as bedding.\nHow Can Bed Bugs Move?\nBed bugs don\u2019t fly or jump, which is a relief to many people. However, just because they don\u2019t move in those ways, it doesn\u2019t mean they can only travel short distances. They are able to travel for a number of feet without assistance. They crawl quickly and because of their small size can easily get through tiny spaces. Of course, they can go even further if they have assistance from people. If they are able to hitch a ride on clothes, in luggage or in bedding or furniture, they can spread much further. Bed bugs like warmth and may occasionally crawl into other places too. For example, they have been found in laptops and other gadgets that people may carry around.\nUnfortunately, there is no foolproof way of preventing bed bugs completely. It can be hard to avoid them as they spread easily and it may take several weeks to spot them. However, there are steps that people can take to prevent an infestation. Most people are unlikely to experience bed bugs in their home. But they may discover them in a rented home or accommodation. If you bring bed bugs into your home, you might pick them up from a hotel, hostel or even a hospital.\nOne of the steps people can take is to be on the lookout when staying in temporary accommodation. If you are travelling, you should be on the lookout for any possible infestations. Even clean beds can have bed bugs. However, the hygiene standards of accommodation can still be an indicator. If it\u2019s not a particularly clean establishment, they may be less vigilant about checking for bed bugs. You should check around the bed and mattress. Pull back the sheets and look at the seams of the mattress. Don\u2019t forget to look at the headboard and the bed itself. It\u2019s also a good idea to look at upholstered furniture and other features in the room. If you notice any signs of bed bugs, you should change rooms or even find somewhere else to stay. While you inspect the room, put your luggage in the bathroom or somewhere safe so it can\u2019t get infested.\nRegular checks of mattresses and around bed frames are one thing you can do to prevent bed bug infestations. Business owners, renters and homeowners should inspect mattresses for signs of bed bugs. The sooner they are detected, the quicker they can be dealt with. This may not prevent bed bugs entirely, but it does help to stop them spreading. Businesses and landlords, in particular, need to be careful to check for bugs. If a lot of people go in and out of the building, there is a higher chance for infestations.\nAnother good idea is to avoid buying secondhand mattresses. You can be sure that there are no existing bed bugs if you only buy new mattresses. You might also want to be careful when buying upholstered furniture. You don\u2019t need to avoid it completely, but make sure you are careful if you buy something that\u2019s used. It will also help to keep bedrooms tidy. A messy bedroom won\u2019t cause bed bugs, but it can give them more places to hide. It\u2019s a good idea to keep the room free of clutter as much as possible.\nBed bugs may also get onto your clothes and spread that way. You can help to prevent them by handling your laundry in appropriate ways. For example, you can put your clothes in plastic bags while they are waiting to be washed. This helps to prevent any bugs getting out before you do your laundry. You can also wash your clothes in the hottest water that the fabric can withstand to help kill any bugs. Bed bugs can travel on your clothes, but you don\u2019t have to worry about them being on your body. However, they could move from your clothes to other surfaces. If you think there may be bugs on your clothes, it\u2019s best to undress on a hard floor, so they don\u2019t end up in the carpet.\nOf course, being educated about bed bugs will help you to prevent them. You can at least prevent them spreading. If you know what they look like and how to spot them, you can pick up on them more quickly. Have a look at some pictures of them, so you can recognise their different forms. You may think you may have bed bugs, but you\u2019re not sure. You can send a sample to a pest controller or entomologist to check.\nNo one wants bed bugs in their home or business. Knowing how they occur and how to prevent them will help you to avoid infestations.",

        "raw_content": "Banking on Equity & Inclusion\nNote: This blog was originally posted on LinkedIn on April 11, 2017.\nOne of the biggest challenges in the area of equity and inclusion is language. \u201cWhat do we say? How do we say it? What if we get it wrong?\u201d These are just a few of the questions that keep diversity folks up at night and many who want to engage in honest conversation on the sidelines. The truth is in today\u2019s environment we get it wrong more than we get it right. Yes, we have been explicit in our diversity related objectives to recruit, retain, and reform cultures; it\u2019s articulated in nearly every mission statement and often discussed. But more than being explicit is required. We must also be specific.\nSpecificity in diversity means naming the particular group you are talking about and understanding when umbrella and shorthand terms like \u201cminorities\u201d and \u201cpeople of color\u201d do not suffice. These terms often mask differences in the workforce representation among Asians, Latinos, and Blacks and create blind-spots for diversity teams. They can undermine diversity goals and objectives as the strategies for recruiting, retaining, and creating a culture for each group are not the same. And most damaging is, in the intent to be all-inclusive, such terms can result in erasing a particular group \u2013 recreating the very harm that diversity initiatives were designed to fix.\nBE LIKE...JAMIE\nThis week in his annual letter to shareholders, JPMorgan Chase Chairman & CEO Jamie Dimon was explicit and specific. He got it right. Mr. Dimon demonstrated something that every organization can learn when talking about equity and inclusion; the importance moving beyond being explicit and using specific with language to achieve results.\nIn sharing the diversity numbers of the global company, Mr. Dimon was explicit. Yet, he was also specific when he said:\nBut there is one area in particular where we simply have not met the standards JPMorgan Chase has set for itself \u2013 and that is in increasing African-American talent at the firm. While we think our effort to attract and retain black talent is as good as at most other companies, it simply is not good enough.\nThe specificity in talking about equity and inclusion is rare in both the corporate and non-profit sectors. However, it is critical to make sure that initiatives are more than nice soundbites and good PR talking points. Peter Drucker said, \u201cWhat is measured is improved.\u201d But before we can measure anything we have to name it. So a better way to communicate this maxim might be, \u201cWhat is named can be measured, and what is measured can be improved.\u201d There are reasons why naming doesn\u2019t happen nearly often enough.\nAmericans are enamored with the idea of having a \u201cbig tent.\u201d The thinking is if the tent is big enough then everyone will fit underneath and all of our problems will disappear. Diversity has become the proverbial \u201cbig tent.\u201d No longer is the focus of diversity on providing consideration to those who have been historically underrepresented and systematically deprived of opportunities based on their religion, race, ethnicity, gender, and/or sexual orientation. The diversity \u201ctent\u201d now includes an array of factors such as right /left brain dominance, rural/urban communities, introversion/extroversion tendencies, and the like. One consequence of the tent getting too big when it comes to diversity is an inability and unwillingness to use specific language that drives results; we don\u2019t, we can\u2019t, we won\u2019t get specific.\nA big tent does not mean that individual groups do not warrant specific consideration. Let\u2019s think about common examples. Consider a continent; there is a large land mass, yet each country has borders. We might have multiple children and/or family members, yet their membership in the group does not erase their individual differences. An elementary school building houses grades K-5, but we would not always put 1st and 5th graders together or speak of them as \u201cthe students.\u201d There are times when that might make sense and there are times when it would not. Because of our cultural discomfort with talking about race and ethnicity we have become too comfortable with umbrella terms and ignoring distinctions and differences. This is why so many diversity efforts fail: you cannot improve what you cannot name.\nThe lack of specificity can be solved by diversity and inclusion professionals asking the following questions when they find themselves using a terms such as \u201cminorities\u201d, \u201cpeople of color\u201d, and \u201cwomen of color\u201d:\n1. Why am I using an umbrella term at this moment? (Note: Efficiency is not an acceptable answer)\n2. Who am I really talking about?\n3. Does this statement/issue/situation apply to each distinct group within our diversity initiatives?\n4. What is the impact of using a common term in this instance? Are there things that I might overlook?\n5. What are the differences within the group of underrepresented individuals that our policies and procedures may not have addressed?\nTaking the time to consider these things is an easy step towards having meaningful communications and achieving diversity and inclusion goal and objectives across the board.\nThis is advice you can take to the bank \u2013 compliments of JPMorgan Chase.\nJyarland Daniels, MBA, JD is CEO & Founder of Harriet Speaks\u2120, a racial equity and inclusion consultancy that offers training, coaching, and communications strategies for non-profits, educational institutions, and corporations.

The birthday was replete with native-inspired decorations like blankets and teepees.\nEniko captioned one photo, \u201cZos cowboys & indians party was nothing but amazing! Thanks to everyone for coming.. we love you guys!\u2019\nThe family received a lot of criticism over the party\u2019s theme, with many social media users calling the party inappropriate and offensive.\nWhat was the backlash?\nOne user wrote, \u201cAs a person of color you SHOULD know better, than [sic] again, I don\u2019t see you standing up for nothing but laughs.\u201d\nAnother user chimed in, \u201cAs fellow aboriginal people, y\u2019all should know why this \u2018theme\u2019 is wrong on so many levels. Sickening.\u201d\nOne user, however, defended the Hart family for their choice in their son\u2019s first birthday party.\nThe user \u2014 who claimed to be Native American \u2014 wrote, \u201cMy family is American Indian and comes from a long line of men and women continuing to advocate for equality for all people. Educating people who are unaware of our heritage should be our number one priority. And while my initial reaction was anger, the only way to have a conversation is to approach it from a place of humility. A first birthday party is a big deal. I don\u2019t think this was done to offend \u2026 But to have fun.\u201d\nAnother user defended the Harts\u2019 celebration, and wrote, \u201cAnyone who thinks this baby\u2019s birthday theme is anything but a cute birthday theme has way deeper issues then they choose to admit. I hope your little one had a great day!!\u201d\nAnother user, however, took such offense to the photos that they reportedly decided to stop supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.\n\u201cBecause of your actions I\u2019m no longer supporting Black Lives Matter,\u201d the user wrote. \u201c[O]h well.\u201d\nAnother wrote, \u201cImagine being so woefully out of touch, that one marginalized group appropriates another \u2026\u201d\nThe family has yet to issue a public statement on the controversy surrounding their son\u2019s birthday party.\nComedian and wife under heavy fire after throwing son \u2018Cowboys & Indians\u2019 birthday party (4 Pics) Reviewed by Facts on November 27, 2018 Rating: 5",

        "raw_content": "Sometimes kills\n20.09.2017. The deadly season is almost over. Soon, the waters between Europe and Africa will become less attractive to cross, as winter approaches. Human traffickers will retreat into the shadows to count their money and lay plans to ensnare hundreds and thousands of \"fish\" in their boats next season. And most of all, they will spend the time praying Europe doesn\u00b4t disrupt the money-making opportunity of a lifetime by coming to its senses. Instead, they hope with every fiber of their beings that the kindness of Europeans and their governments will continue to lure great masses of people directly into their hands.\nAs long as a golden ticket in the form of access to a European welfare state is dangled in front of millions of people in less prosperous societies, the sea will continue to claim its victims and the traffickers will continue to pack anything that halfway floats with human cargo. And the answer is not to provide ferry service to assist in making the illegal trade more profitable. Aid agencies that do anything other than return people to non-European shores, are part of the problem, not the solution. Their misguided \"assistance\" is the best friend the coastal criminal ever had. Despite the intentions behind the efforts.\nThus begins Erica A. Blair her article Your kindness is kiling people. Towards the end she concludes as follows:\nI do not suggest that people be left in the water to drown. I suggest that they be taken aboard and delivered to an asylum facility outside of Europe, where their applications can be assessed and processed. Under no circumstances should they gain access to the rights and privileges of an asylum seeker if they are not entitled to such a status. Paying your way into Europe via smugglers must not remain a viable option. And we must cease assisting human traffickers in making their deadly business more attractive and sustainable. We must take effective measures that end all the meaningless deaths related to this criminal industry.\nRead the entire article at Resett.no.",

But why you might ask?\nWhat is so special abut this green and majestic country, located in the norths of the UK , that I should bring my group ,event or incentive at least once ?\nWell, well , well\u2026there are many reasons!!! Apart from the wonderful people and warm welcome you will receive in a pure Scottish accent, we have selected our favourite 5 reasons why you absolutely have to bring your group to Scotland.\nPlease note we can help you in arranging trips, tours and experiences so shall you wish to discover Scotland- JUST GET IN TOUCH.\nEnjoy getting to know one of our favourite destinations, the magnificent Scotland\nOne of the first reasons to bring your group to Scotland is GOLF, but did you know that Scotland is considered a home of modern golf? Golf dates back to the time of Julius Caesar. Although it was not the golf that is played today, it was a similar game. They played by striking a feather-stuffed ball with club-shaped tree branches. Golf was also traced back to the Song Dynasty in China during the years 960 to 1279. The games of these times were not exactly the golf that is known today; the roots of today\u2019s game can be traced back to Scotland in 1457. The game was then outlawed by King James II of Scotland, as it detracted from the training for the military. The best golf courses are based in Scotland and if you are brining an executive group that wants to experience the game, there is no better place.\nScotch whisky, often simply called Scotch, is malt whisky or grain whisky made in Scotland. Scotch whisky must be made in a manner specified by law.\nAll Scotch whisky was originally made from malted barley. Scotch whisky is divided into five distinct categories: single malt Scotch whisky, single grain Scotch whisky, blended malt. Scotch whisky (formerly called \u201cvatted malt\u201d or \u201cpure malt\u201d), blended grain Scotch whisky, and blended Scotch whisky.\nAll Scotch whisky must be aged in oak barrels for at least three years. Any age statementon a bottle of Scotch whisky, expressed in numerical form, must reflect the age of the youngest whisky used to produce that product. A whisky with an age statement is known as guaranteed-age whisky. If you like a good whisky, once again there is not better place for you. Whisky tastings and visits to distilleries will be one of the highlight of your group visit.\nFishing in Scotland includes opportunities for salmon, brown trout and sea trout angling , but coarse fishing is increasingly popular. Angling is the most important participation sport in the country. It makes the ideal place for a holiday or vacation and there are a weath of tackle shops, guides and ghillies who can help you.\nOn the west coast you will find hundreds of small spate rivers, streams and lochs, while in the east you find the classic salmon rivers of the Tay, Tweed, Dee and Spey.\nTo the south closer to the border with England are some exceptional fisheries, including the Tweed on the east coast known for its salmon. If you have a group that would like to experience the fishing at its core and crystal clear water, there is not better country for fishermen than Scotland.\nHighland games combine sport, fun and culture in a uniquely Scottish style and take place every weekend in the summer. From May to September you can get in on the action at one of over 80 Highland games taking place on islands and in towns, villages and cities across the country \u2013 some castle grounds host games too.\nCertain aspects of the games are so well known as to have become emblematic of Scotland, such as the bagpipes, the kilt, and the heavy events, especially the caber toss. While centred on competitions in piping and drumming, dancing, and Scottish heavy athletics, the games also include entertainment and exhibits related to other aspects of Scottish and Gaelic culture.\nReal men were skirts and they look really good\u2026.SORRY WE MEANT TARTAN KILTS!!! Only in Scotland ladies and gentlemen! It is hard to say precisely why Scottish men have originally adopted this unique way of dressing, or when exactly various clans adopted their own family patterns. The oldest tartan known to history dates back to 245 AD. By 1746 there were enough clan tartans to cause prohibition by the English for 38 years.\nToday there are over 2,000 registered designs. You can visit a kilt maker and have one made especially for you.\nTags: destinationsEventsexecutivesgolfGroupsScotlandscottishUKwhisky\nNo Responses to \u201c5 reasons to bring your group to Scotland\u201d",

It\u2019s no wonder that among the many Sudanese people who have undergone hardships that I am among those born in the war, brought up with it, and to age with it. For the years of my life in exile (Uganda and Zaire, now the DRC) had been full of uncertainties. My career as an activist is due to what I went through and what other Sudanese at the camps went through, too. I decided not to commit suicide because it would not have benefitted anyone. As a child, I had to take a stand to address both social and economic conditions to improve my livelihood. My life as an orphan\u2014even when I decided to go back home to South Sudan\u2014was something that could not be imagined. I decided to think positively about my future and started to work in service for communities.

I am from a country with many human rights issues and we have yet to know the true taste of freedom. We are like fish that survive in a tiny lake not really knowing what is happening around the world. Because we don\u2019t know how to take action to demand our rights, I want to teach these skills as a human rights educator. Recently, I had the chance to participate in the Human Rights Advocates Program at Columbia University\u2019s Institute for the Study of Human Rights and its University Human Rights Education in Myanmar project. I have gained many benefits, skills, and knowledge\u2014not only in an academic context, but in a practical one as well. These skills will help me contribute to the development of human rights in my country. For example, the research, interviewing, and critical thinking skills I gained through workshops were very useful. In my courses, I have gained knowledge that I have never learned before, such as the activities of NGOs, and the skills to teach human rights to others. As such, human rights education is very important because it can be used as a tool for people to make change. When people are mindful and educated about human rights, they can take action to demand their rights, changing their views, attitudes, and practices in the process. Educators can influence the country, not just within the classroom, but through their day-to-day interactions and behaviors. When I return back home, we will keep moving in the direction of human rights. We can train people to be human rights lawyers, helping them to know how to solve problems, such as which methods to use and which ones are ineffective. In this way, we can prevent human rights violations and future conflicts. People have different names and different ways of life, but from the perspective of human rights, they are all the same. We can\u2019t deny someone their individual human rights\u2014there should be no discrimination or bias against anyone.\nHead of Department of Further Education, Institute of Learning Processes/University of Greenland\nColette Lespinasse , 2010\nExecutive Director, Groupe d\u2019Appui aux Rapatries et aux Refugies\nDuring the 1980s, Colette Lespinasse became an advocate as she learned about the plight of peasants and the urban poor in Haiti. She started attending meetings and activities to improve Haitian society. She quickly found an opportunity at the Catholic radio station, Radio Soleil. \u201cI was inspired by the role of Radio Soleil to make changes. The information and education awareness programs it broadcast nationally made it the only radio [station in Haiti]to do this.\u201d She later began to focus on migrant rights after discovering the discrimination against Haitians in the Dominican Republic. She says, \u201cWhen the Dominican Republic expelled over 80,000 Haitians during the Aristide administration, I created my organization GARR because I wanted to improve relations and offer humanitarian assistance.\u201d She has since opened up constructive dialogue between Haitians and Dominicans in the Dominican Republic. Lespinasse said, \u201cI discovered I need to keep working not just with Haitians but with Dominicans as well, to advocate not only within Haiti but within the Dominican Republic too.\u201d She concludes, \u201cHuman rights has given me a passion. Now, I can\u2019t work somewhere without passion.\u201d",

How can we save more and spend less? It has become an issue to make and save money.\nThe world is geared in such a way that it\u2019s difficult to hold on to our money\u2026\nEveryone is after money\u2014our money, their money, everybody\u2019s money\u2014 because of greed and because they never have enough. They spend years in higher education, in colleges and universities, to master the art of finding ways to get our money with such ease. They have become experts in their field and their field is to find more ways for our money to escape from our wallets faster and faster.\nThe funny thing is, there is a collaboration between the financial institutions and the commercial world to create more wants than needs. People, in general, are innocent and ordinary. The majority works hard to try to have a life without paying too much attention to the details\u2026and that is when it happens\u2026.\nI remember when banks were not so greedy. They made it easy and a pleasure to bank with them. Now it\u2019s all about them making more and more billions in profits every year. They charge for every little detail, and we are not done yet, because they have their geniuses looking for ways to get every hard-earned dollar from our bank accounts into theirs\u2014the latest being that, with every transaction at the ATM, if you want a receipt, there is a charge of one dollar.\nThe government raises taxes, and if you don\u2019t have a good accountant, you are doomed. There is a well-organized plan to find ways for our money to fly into someone else\u2019s nest. Therefore, people will never get out of debt unless they get smart, spend less, and save more. As the saying goes, \u201cA penny saved is a penny earned.\u201d\nHow about our young ones? Do you think there is more we can do to educate them about money matters, to help them manage their resources, money, time, and so on? I don\u2019t think we do enough to prepare our young people for life and its money challenges!\nWe teach them history, the arts, geography, economics, and so on. Please, don\u2019t get me wrong, these subjects are important, but I feel it\u2019s more important to teach them practical and smart ways to deal with their personal finances, starting from when they\u2019re young and into their teen years.\nIt would make such a huge difference in their lives. It would determine how successful they are going to be\u2026or not.\nBut here is the question: Who is responsible for this task\u2014the school system or the parents? Why do we as parents depend on others, such as schools, to ready our children for life? Isn\u2019t it our duty to make this happen?\nHere is my opinion: Parents care more for their children than anyone else does; therefore, they are responsible for teaching their children about personal finances if the school doesn\u2019t do it. Remember, economics is not the same as personal finance. We have to teach young people to spend less than what they make, a lesson that can prove to be as valuable as gold if it\u2019s put into action! It\u2019s a very simple lesson but a very important one.\nI wish I knew more about money management. I wish someone had told me early in life about money and how very important it is to save more and spend less\u2026to pay myself first and then spend the rest with no guilt. Life will never be without its bills and expenses. It is what it is, and nothing is free\u2026well, I\u2019m trying to think what things are free\u2014not too many! The air we breathe is still free, but I don\u2019t know for how much longer!\nMoney matters. Let us be wise about it so we can have it in times of need!",

Street lights have been removed, most are dimmed and then switched off overnight.\nWe were told the new lights would be more efficient brighter lights. That was the justification for removing an average 10% of lamp posts across the county, with a higher proportion on residential streets but fewer on main roads.\nBut last year, as part of the budget cuts, the Conservative and UKIP councillors on the County Council voted to dim the lights by 40% and switch most off overnight between 1am and 6am leading to dark and dingy areas. Lib Dems opposed this cut saying this was potentially unsafe and people would be fearful of going out at night. Our campaign has resulted in a change of heart by the council.",

But there are only two vehicles here, both beautifully restored. One, a 1974 Porsche 914, is held in mid-air perfectly balanced by a 390lb meteorite; the other, a 1964 F350 crane-truck, is balanced with a 1 ton cast-iron cube.\nThe American artist Chris Burden was a bit of a character and pushed ideas of art to the limits. In the early 1970\u2032s he challenged his own mental and physical limitations by works that sought to raise awareness of violence in American society and using his own body to create performance art. His Master\u2019s thesis at the University of California was shutting himself in a locker for five days without food, with a 5-gallon container of water above him and a 5-gallon container of water below him (for waste).\nHis most famous work is possibly being shot in his arm: \u201cI had an intuitive sense that being shot is as American as apple pie. We see people being shot on TV, we read about it in the newspaper. Everybody has wondered what it\u2019s like. So I did it.\u201d\nPerhaps because his early university studies were in physics and architecture, and his father was an engineer, his later works involved pushing the limits of movement, physics and engineering, most famously with The Flying Steamroller in which a 12 ton steamroller was hung from a metal arm with a counter-weight at the other end. Every half hour the steam roller was driven until hydraulic lifts enabled the counter-weight to lift the steam roller off of the ground, creating a tension between what a steam roller is supposed to do (push downwards), and what it was now doing (flying upwards).\nThe two of his works on show in \u2018Measured\u2019 at the Gagosian follow the same theme, though calmer and more subtle\nPosted in Art, Science and Innovation | Tagged Chris Burden, Gagosian Gallery, Measured",

In order to promote researcher employability, training will be complemented by modules addressing key transferable skills common to all fields (e.g. scientific management and funding of research activities, communication, science outreach) and, when appropriate, by a meaningful exposure to the non-academic sector.\nThe main goal of this programme is to endow Portugal with a high quality, solid, national PhD programme in the domain of PASC.\nThe Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology (PASC) domain is central in the road-maps for fundamental science in Europe. In fact, some of the most relevant questions in science today lay within PASC, and the different PASC sub-domains no longer have rigid boundaries. The interconnection between them became apparent in the last decades and presently it is neither possible to separate the infinitely large from the infinitely small, nor is it possible to separate theory from experiment. Together, they are cornerstones of our newly acquired and evolving vision of fundamental interactions and of the Universe at all scales and common background knowledge is necessary to interpret the wealth of observational and experimental data.\nThe participant institutions are excellent rated, internationally renowned, universities and research centres with post-graduation programs in fundamental interactions, from particle physics to gravitation and cosmology, from the largest accelerators to the cosmic observation through all types of radiation coming from space.\nThe IDPASC doctoral programme will be the national programme of reference in this area.

Study the best way to read these Candlestick charts! And I discovered these two rules to be accurate: having modest increases is more lucrative than trying to fight up to the pinnacle. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it\u2019s better to have a look at publications than wait for order confirmation when you believe the price is going down. Secondly, there is more unpredictability and compensation in monies that haven\u2019t made it to the profitability of websites like Coinwarz.\nEntrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to investigate possibilities for making gigantic ammonts of cash with various kinds of internet marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to brave the cryptocurrency markets.Bitcoin design provides an informative example of how one might make lots of money in the cryptocurrency markets. Bitcoin is an outstanding intellectual and technical accomplishment, and it has created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But very few people understand that and miss out on quite profitable business models made available because of the growing use of blockchain technology.\nMLM \u2013 TANI Sheeple\nHere is the coolest thing about cryptocurrencies; they usually do not physically exist anywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you examine a special address for a wallet containing a cryptocurrency, there is absolutely no digital information held in it, like in the exact same manner that a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It really is nothing more than a representation of worth, but there is absolutely no genuine tangible kind of that worth. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or immobilized or audited by the banks and the law. They don\u2019t have spending limits and withdrawal restrictions enforced on them. No one but the owner of the crypto wallet can determine how their riches will be managed.\nCryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others happen to be designed as a non-fiat currency. Quite simply, its backers assert that there\u2019s real value, even through there isn\u2019t any physical representation of that value. The value rises due to computing power, that\u2019s, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame that is worth an ever declining amount of currency or some kind of wages in order to ensure the shortfall. Each coin contains many smaller units. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are exactly to authenticate other trades, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant alternative, which can be among the appealing aspects of the coin. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, which is part of the block that gave rise to it. The person who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it into a value is provided by another address, which is a wallet file stored on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of trades dwells.\nThe fact that there\u2019s little evidence of any increase in the use of virtual money as a currency may be the reason why there are minimal attempts to regulate it. The reason for this could be just that the marketplace is too small for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory effort. It truly is also possible the regulators simply don\u2019t comprehend the technology and its consequences, awaiting any developments to act.\nWhen searching online for TANI sheeple, there are many things to think of.\nHybrid Network Marketing \u2013 TANI Sheeple\nClick here to visit our home page and learn more about TANI sheeple.\nMany individuals would rather use a money deflation, particularly those that want to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some applications than others. Monetary privacy, for instance, is great for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign financing. We need a stable cryptocurrency for use in trade; if you\u2019re living paycheck to paycheck, it\u2019d happen within your riches, with the remainder reserved for other currencies.\nEthereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, yet, if growth is too quickly, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted quickly, Ethereum requests could improve drastically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the entire platform of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the increasing costs of running distributed programs. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Instability of demand for ether may result in a negative change in the economical parameters of an Ethereum based business which could lead to business being unable to continue to manage or to discontinue operation.\nThe physical Internet backbone that carries data between the different nodes of the network is currently the work of a number of companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), including companies that provide long-distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local conduit, which finally links in homes and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through any of these ISPs, players like amount 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP runs its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private firms, and sometimes by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to move messages across the network. Many ISPs have arrangements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for last mile-consumers and companies who desire to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the info to stream without interruption, in the right location at the perfect time.\nWhile none of these organizations owns the Internet together these firms decide how it operates, and established rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that\u2019s taking place to determine how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for example, one needs consent from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone for connecting to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to work with the problem and the solution developed and deployed is in the interest of all parties. If the Internet is down, you have someone to phone to get it repaired. If the issue is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts set up and service level agreements, which govern the way in which these issues are resolved.\nThe benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain is not governed by any focused business. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that\u2019s something that as a committed advocate badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet works. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works present built-in problems to an individual. Blockchain technology has none of that.\nYou\u2019ve probably noticed this often where you generally distribute the nice word about crypto. It is not unpredictable? What goes on when the price failures? to date, several POS programs presents free conversion of fiat, improving some worry, but until the volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, most people will undoubtedly be resistant to carry any. We have to discover a way to combat the volatility that\u2019s inherent in cryptocurrencies.\nFor most users of cryptocurrencies it\u2019s not essential to understand how the process works in and of itself, but it is essentially vital that you understand that there is a process of mining to create virtual currency. Unlike monies as we understand them today where Authorities and banks can simply select to print unlimited quantities (I \u2018m not saying they are doing so, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be managed by users using a mining application, which solves the sophisticated algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation.\nIf you are looking for TANI sheeple, look no further than Affluence Network International.\nTANI Sheeple \u2013 Hybrid MLM\nSince among the oldest forms of earning money is in cash financing, it\u2019s a fact that you could do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the lending sites currently focus on Bitcoin, Some of these sites you happen to be required fill in a captcha after a particular time frame and are rewarded with a small quantity of coins for visiting them. It is possible to visit the www.cryptofunds.co website to locate some lists of of these sites to tap into the currency of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. New ones are always popping up which means they do not have a lot of market data and historical perspective for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have fairly poor liquidity as well and it is hard to think of a reasonable investment strategy.\nCryptocurrency is freeing people to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in an identical way, but they also get involved in more sophisticated smart contracts. Multiple signatures enable a transaction to be supported by the network, but where a specific number of a defined group of folks agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This enables innovative dispute arbitration services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could enable a third party to approve or reject a transaction in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment procedures, the blockchain consistently leaves public proof that the transaction happened. This can be possibly used within an appeal against companies with deceptive practices.\nThis mining action validates and records the transactions across the entire network. So if you\u2019re attempting to do something illegal, it is not wise because everything is recorded in the public register for the rest of the world to see forever.\nOnly a fraction of bitcoins issued so far are available on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, meaning the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the variety of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. In addition, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Consequently, even the most diligent buyer could not purchase all existing bitcoins. This situation is just not to suggest that markets usually are not exposed to price exploitation, yet there is certainly no need for big amounts of cash to transfer market prices up or down. The smallest events in the world market can change the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile.\n\"description\": \"TANI Sheeple - 6 Level Hybrid Marketing Platform - A.N.\",\n\"name\": \"TANI Sheeple\"\n\"alternativeHeadline\": \"What Is TAN Coin Price Life Ingot - Hybrid Affiliate Commissions\",\n\"headline\": \"TANI Sheeple - Binary MLM\",\n\"TANI Sheeple\",\n\"What Is The Affluence Network Charity\",\n\"text\": \"TANI Sheeple -\nFor most users of cryptocurrencies it is not crucial to understand how the process functions in and of itself, but it is fundamentally important to understand that there is a procedure for mining to create virtual currency.

        "raw_content": "Five years after the earthquake, has Haiti received its promised relief?\nFive years after the destructive January 20, 2010 earthquake near Port-au-Prince, few of the relief efforts promised by independent states, organizations, and the United Nations have been delivered. Despite the billions of dollars pledged in aid, little of that money has been disbursed, and post-disaster relief has been minimal. Much of the relief has been and continues to be centered on the political and individual gain of countries providing aid.\nIs there justice for Haiti?\nRuth-Anne Seburn, Winnipeg Free Press\nIn the never-ending news cycle, it\u2019s easy to forget about disasters and crises after they\u2019ve disappeared from the headlines. Haiti and the aftermath of a devastating earthquake in 2010 is a prime example.\nThe Mennonite Central Committee, an international peace, relief and development organization with headquarters in Winnipeg, has worked on the ground in Haiti for more than 50 years.\nThe quake on Jan. 20, 2010 struck Haiti with an epicentre a mere 25 kilometres from the capital, Port-au-Prince and vastly changed the environment for aid to this day.\nGovernments, non-governmental organizations, businesses, and individuals pledged billions of dollars in support as people watched the media documenting the devastation. Despite the good intentions, thousands died due to the lack of disaster preparedness and weak infrastructure. The international interventions in the period post-earthquake reveal how complex, political, and even devastating foreign aid can be. While its post-earthquake disaster-response program is winding down, MCC is still working on long-term development initiatives and peacemaking through local partner-implemented projects that support education, human rights, health and water and sanitation outcomes. In addition, MCC runs one of the largest reforestation and agroforestry programs in Haiti, and remains committed to advocating for a better future for Haitians.",

        "raw_content": "How to respond to this without opening the \"steroids aren't really cheating\" bag of worms...\nFine. So I lost my Baseball Purist card years ago. I like the DH. I love the Wild Card. I fully embrace VORP, Win Shares, and FRAA and shun things like wins, RBIs, and errors. So it isn't a surprise for me to suggest that perhaps this whole steroid thing is just another era.\nFrank \"Home Run\" Baker led the majors in homers for four straight years (1911-1914), hitting no more than twelve longballs in any season. In fact, in 1913, Baker hit 25% more home runs than the next closest player. In 1968, Bob Gibson led the majors with a 1.68 ERA, the lowest mark of all time. However, the league average ERA was just 2.50, also lowest of all time. The mound was lowered six inches the following season to compensate. In 2001 Barry Bonds led the majors with 73 home runs, but he did it in a season when eight players hit 45 or more HRs.\nPoint being, it is not a revelation to take the statistics of baseball and put them in context of the period in which the statistics were generated. When it comes to counting statistics like home runs, I think most baseball fans wouldn't call sluggers from one era better or worse than sluggers from another era. Simply having a greater number in one category does not indicate absolute superiority.\nBack to Bonds, I don't think that having him hit his 756th home run necessarily defames the history of baseball. For example, the all-time hits leader committed what baseball people consider the worst clubhouse crime- betting on baseball. Did this give him an advantage over his opponents such that he was bound to get more hits than anyone else? No... but neither did steroids for Bonds. In the mid-1990s, it is obvious that many many batters, and pitchers, enhanced their performance with anabolic steroids. This was not against the rules. It was (perhaps still is, with HGH) an era in which muscle enhancement affected the statistics. I don't think that's any different from a dead ball affecting the statistics, or a mound being too high, or parks getting smaller. What is ultimately true is that in an era of steroids Barry Bonds was undeniably the best slugger. For that, he should reap the rewards handed out to generations of baseball fans who similarly dominated their own eras.\nAnd then this will all become moot in 2012 when Alex Rodriguez hits his 800th home run. The real crime we should be focusing on is David Aardsma's crime of making it to the major leagues and sucking, taking Aaron's alphabetic title for nothing.",

Photo by Mason Callejas\nA union of imagery and sound began when Ivan and Maria Pour wed in 2008.\n\u201cIn our marriage vows there is even something about \u2018supporting (my) artistic endeavors and supporting his music.\u2019\u201d Maria said. \u201cIt\u2019s so engrained in who we are.\u201d\nThe pair\u2019s mutual support of each other\u2019s passions soon led to collaboration inside classrooms at Maricopa High School.\nIvan Pour is the band director; Maria teaches fine art.\nIvan Pour teaches music. Maria Pour teaches art. Photo by Mason Callejas\nEvery year Maria\u2019s art students visit Ivan\u2019s band room filled with musicians. The band performs for the young artists, who are then instructed to draw \u201cwhat they hear.\u201d\nAfter the artwork is complete, the musicians take a gallery walk to view the results. Afterward, they compose an original piece of music inspired by their peers\u2019 art.\n\u201cTake what you\u2019re seeing and write what sounds like that,\u201d Ivan tells his students.\nThe band programs at MHS have grown in the near decade since Ivan came to the district. What once was offered as a single class has evolved into a competitive force.\n\u201cThis year we have three wind (instrument) classes and now a fourth class for the percussionists, and the color guard has their own,\u201d Ivan said.\nIn April, the Division 1-ranked Maricopa High School Band and Orchestra advanced to the ABODA State Concert Festival for the second consecutive year, and the program continues to produce talented musicians.\nRecent graduate and standout tubist Chance Ackerson studied under Ivan Pour during all four years of high school.\n\u201cHonestly, being in the marching band was one of the best experiences of my life. It\u2019s basically like a family,\u201d Ackerson said.\nThe culture within the marching band mirrors that of the art students, and even of the high school, Maria Pour said.\n\u201cWhether our students are captains of the football team, cheerleaders, art nerds, band nerds, gay, straight, bi-sexual, black, white, green, it doesn\u2019t matter,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s a family atmosphere here, and the teachers work really hard to get to know each of their kids to teach them valid, really important lessons.\u201d\nFor the Pours, one of the most vital teachings is reinforcing their belief that art and music education lead to valuable, sustaining careers.\n\u201cWhat a lot of employers are looking for nowadays are people who can also think creatively and critically, and think outside of the box. A lot of our economy now is not creating things, but creating experiences,\u201d Ivan said.\nIn addition to teaching advanced placement art classes, Maria teaches a 3D art course that constructed costumes for the high school\u2019s recent performance of \u201cBeauty and the Beast.\u201d\nShe hopes her digital art program grows at MHS.\n\u201cI had students the first year I started doing the computer modeling unit in my 3D classes just all of a sudden say \u2018Oh my gosh, this is something I could do.\u2019\u201d\nA future grant written by Maria could accomplish her goal of exposing students to additional digital art classes and cutting-edge software by next year.\nIn November, Maria will graduate from Full Sail University with a bachelor\u2019s degree in computer animation. She received her first bachelor\u2019s degree in fine arts from ASU in 2010.\n\u201cI want to still stay in traditional art, that\u2019s where my heart is, but using those traditional art skills in more of the modern setting is something that needs to be shown to them,\u201d she said.\nAt home, Ivan and Maria are raising more young talent, their 5-year-old son Leo.\n\u201cThere is always the constant battle to see whether he\u2019s going to be an artist or a music nerd,\u201d Maria said.\n\u201cIt looks like he\u2019s leaning toward art,\u201d Ivan added.\nMaria Pour is also growing a digital art program at MHS.

I use a sociocultural approach to study teaching, learning, and communicative practices that are emphasized in underrepresented communities, especially in immigrant populations from M\u00e9xico. Through my research I hope to inform educational practices to increase cultural sensitivity to the valued modes of teaching and learning in school. My research framework assumes that ethnicity does not necessarily confer particular experiences or characteristics but that it is essential to focus on participation in cultural practices as a way to study culture.\nMy dissertation study explores Mexican heritage and European American mothers\u2019 and children\u2019s conceptualizations and use of a mode of teaching that I have termed instructional ribbing. Instructional ribbing is a form of teasing that may be used to teach children by arousing their curiosity and communicating to them indirectly about their roles within the community. Although ethnographic work has suggested that teasing may be used in ways that benefit the development of children, there is a lack of psychological and comparative research that has studied this phenomenon and mainstream psychological theory often treats teasing in negative ways.",

We failed because there was no majority in the Knesset to pass the bill with a retroactive clause [for a pre-existing court decision, as in Amona's case] because not all our partners had agreed to allow that clause, and I'm referring to the Kulanu party, but still, we as government ministers are responsible for this and instead of giving explanations we have to say we failed in this instance.\"\nMinister Elkin was not surprised by the court's decision to reject the absentee owner plan that was drafted to move Amona to a location on the same hill. \"We knew there was a big risk here. It doesn't have much precedent, so I was not totally surprised. The right solution was the retroactive clause for which unfortunately we were unable to achieve a majority because of the Kulanu party.\"\nHe said the real struggle over the regulation law must focus on the relationship between the Knesset and the Supreme Court, \"I fought years for this and since we established this government the Likud required all partners to enact the law to overpower the High Court [in the case of their cancelling legislation passed by the Knesset]. We convinced our partners except Kulanu, so there is currently no majority to pass it. We'll have to work hard in the next election to get a majority for passing this law.\"\nMinister Elkin is convinced the regulation law will be enacted. \"I suggest that the Defense Minister and all those who say that the High Court will eliminate this should wait. The people elected us to legislate and do what we believe in; true, the Attorney General said he will not defend it but the Knesset legal adviser Eyal Yinon said he would defend the law. If the law is cancelled, well, we took that into account as well and there are several decisions of the Attorney General that provide solutions for the vast majority of homes in Judea and Samaria even without a regulation law.\"\nMinister Elkin also has a message for the residents of Amona: \"This morning we must tell the residents of Amona that without their determination the law would not have gotten to where it is. I never lied and have been telling them for the last few years there is a chance that we won't succeed in saving the village. But they beat my pessimism and thanks to their determination next week the regulation law shall pass.\"\nMinister Elkin estimates that the coalition will survive. \"I do not think any of our partners have an interest to dismantle the government. Even if the government doesn't succeed in everything, it is still the best nationalist government that could be. If we go to elections there is a chance that the Left will win. Yair Lapid pushes for the pre '67 boundaries and is perceived today as the candidate of the Left, so with elections everyone knows how it begins but no-one knows how it ends, and probably in the Trump Era nobody wants to overthrow a government of the Right. There are those trying to overthrow the government as is the case with the media with reports of investigations, but we have seen that Herzog's investigation closed even though it was carried out under warning. So if there are attempts to overthrow the government - that simply requires the entire national camp to unite.\"\nTags:Likud, Amona, elections, Ze'ev Elkin, Regulation Bill",

The organization's activists identify with the Hamas terrorist organization and work to keep the visitors away from the Temple Mount by various means, including violent riots that have caused numerous injuries to security forces in recent years.\nThe Shin Bet said that the activities of Shabab al-Aqsa also served as a catalyst for the spread of murderous terrorist attacks in Judea, Samaria and Jerusalem in recent years. In October 2016, a policeman and a civilian were killed in a shooting attack carried out by one of the organization's leaders, Mesbah Abu Sabih, near Ammunition Hill.\nThe Shin Bet investigation led to the arrest of Mahmoud Abd al-Wahhab Sa'id 'Abd al-Latif, a resident of the Old City and a senior activist in the organization, on suspicion of recruiting operatives to the organization.\nThe arrest of the organization's activists was made possible by intensive intelligence and operational activity by the General Security Service and the Israel Police, aimed at ensuring free access to the Temple Mount, preserving the status quo in the compound, and preventing terrorists from undermining the security situation in the compound.\nThe Jerusalem District Prosecutor's Office filed indictments against five of the organization's activists for offenses under the Anti-Terrorism Law, along with a request to detain them until the end of legal proceedings in their case.

We will consider doing so if the need arises.\"\nThe reason Chief Cabinet secretary Fukuda Yasuo gave on the same day for the dispatch was that support is needed for the U.S. forces in the Indian Ocean that are operating to blockade terrorists fleeing Afghanistan.\nThe government began to consider dispatching the destroyer when the parliament was discussing the Anti-Terrorism Special Measures Law in 2001.\nPointing out that sending SDF units is unconstitutional, Akahata on December 3 stated that deployment of an Aegis destroyer will not only involve Japan in U.S. wars but also pave the way for Japan's support for another U.S. war against Iraq.

(Version fran\u00e7aise)\nThe European Union is one of the most talked of unions around the world. This is a political and economic confederation. It is founded by 27 states of Europe. Though it was founded in 1993, but the primary formation has taken place earlier in the mid-twentieth century.\nLooking back at history it can be found that the ECSC or the European Coal and Steel Community and EEC or European Economic Community developed into the European Union. EEC and ECSC were established in 1958. Then the number of the member states was only six. Gradually many other states located in Europe started joining these unions. They were gaining national forces. In 1993, the \u201cMaastricht Treaty\u201d was signed and the European Union came into being.\nThe member states are: The United Kingdom, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, Germany, France, Austria, The Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Italy, Hungary, Luxembourg, Lithuania, Malta, Latvia, The Netherlands, Romania, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Slovenia, Sweden and Slovakia\nThe aim of the European Union is to spread \u201cpeace, prosperity and freedom\u201d among its combined citizens. The number of the combined citizens is approximately 500 million. Though it was founded as an economic union meant for the economic development of its member states, later it grew as a political organization. Along with undertaking different trade initiatives to facilitate its member countries, it is also working for preserving the human and environmental rights of its citizens. It is devoted to serve the need of these citizens to reach its aim of spreading \u201cpeace, prosperity and freedom\u201d.\nTo facilitate the economic transactions of its member countries, it has started a new currency \u201cEuro\u201d. 16 countries who are the members of European Union use the special currency named \u201cEuro\u201d. The countries that are using it are: Belgium, France, Greece, Austria, Finland, Cyprus, Germany, Luxembourg, Ireland, Malta, Italy, The Portugal, Netherlands, Slovenia, Slovakia, Spain and Germany. There are some non-EU countries that also use Euro. They do it under a special agreement. They are: San Marino, the Vatican and Monaco. They are allowed to issue and use Euro coins on their own.\nThe European Union has established a single market among its member countries by coining a standardized system of business laws. All the member countries have to obey these laws. To ensure the free movement of the people, capital, services and goods of the member states, the abolition of passport controls is introduced. All the member countries have to obey some common policies to ensure the local and supranational development. These policies are applicable for trade, fisheries, regional development and agriculture.\nThe countries of the European Union have the Common Security and Foreign Policy to ensure the internal defence. But this union has not developed its role in the field of external relations.\nThe European Union has a defined structure. It has three bodies. The first one is European Parliament. It is elected by the combined citizens of EU. The second one is the Council of the European Union. The third one is the European Commission. For a better judicial system, it has a Court of First Instance and a European Court of Justice. All these bodies work together to devise and enforce its policies.\nThe Latest News of the European Financial Crisis 2012\nThe on-going debacle that is the European financial crisis has left many around the world grasping for answers, and yet the progress with which the issue has proceeded is akin to waiting for a snail to cross the road. In all fairness, monetary crises, wherever they may be in the world, have no swift resolution, must less a speedy action plan to get things moving ahead. For this reason, news about the European financial crisis has never been definitive nor substantial so as to raise the hopes of many that the European Union will continue to exist as a political and economic alliance.\nThere are, however, tantalizing signs that things may change for the better. To get more info on the issue, here are the latest news and tidbits that are critical to the resolution of the crisis in Europe.\nThe election of France\u2019s new leader Francois Hollande is big news for the whole of Europe. Historically, it has been Germany\u2019s Angela Merkel and France\u2019s Nikolas Sarkozy who were frontmen in the fight to elicit fiscal responsibility among members of the EU while at the same time helping to pay off some of the fiscal obligations of embattled member nations. Like a leadership change in this company or that company, Mr. Hollande\u2019s election features to shake up the dynamic of the European Union leaders. At the very worst, it could limit France\u2019s involvement in financing the debt of member nations, something that Germany is not keen on doing by itself. If that happens, the world can very well expect the dissolution of the European Union completely revamping work advice articles considering the new policies that could be developed with protectionist agenda.\nGreece\u2019s recent election results also feature to put a damper in the hopes of reviving the European alliance fairly quickly. The newly elected government in June 2012 has already requested for concessions from what was widely thought as the proposed pro-austerity measures and recovery plan spearheaded by Germany and France. The general stance of the new government differs from the one that defined the pro-austerity measures prior to the approval of the Greek bailout and the failure of this government to live up to the initial commitments of its predecessor is threatening to result in an exit. Going here would be catastrophic for other ailing members of the EU as it may serve to demonstrate the worst case that can happen if member nations fail to live up to their commitments to the economic alliance.\nBeyond Greece, there are multiple other member nations that are suffering from serious economic issues. Spain tops the list with 29% unemployment, followed by Portugal and Italy in some order. Such widespread debt problems underscores the pressing need to look at many of the systemic issues in the EU, specifically that the Euro does not implement restrictive guidelines to check bad borrowing practices by local government. If unresolved, it is not impossible to imagine Italian food crossing the border and requiring taxation as it enters neighbouring countries. That would be a sad day for many European countries as taxes severely cripple the ability of local businesses to compete on a regional stage.\nThe European financial crisis is an on-going saga whose resolution is far from being realized. Even with agreements that purport to control the outcome, it will take years before the problems will be fully addressed. You can sit and scuff your San Marcos flooring and yet you still wouldn\u2019t see complete closure on these issues. It remains to be seen whether the European Council can enact powerful controlling policies to keep member nations in check. As for its effect on the global economy, that is something that we all know is highly sensitive. If the EU collapses as an alliance, it will send ripples across all markets and all economies. Hopefully, it does not get to that stage. That would be a truly sad day for global economic alliances.\nGreek\u2019s Financial Burden on the European Union\nThere has been a lot of controversy in the news lately about Greeks financial burden and how it is affecting the European Union.\nAs it currently stands Greece is 350 billion Euros in debt that equates to $459 billion, it is obvious at this point they will not be able to pay the money back and they need more.\nRunning a country isn\u2019t as easy as a click of a mouse to compare logbook loans or buying drivers insurance, they need the support of the union and right now the union is trying to get further loans approved in Athens.\nResistance is growing throughout the European Union with Germany fighting to get the loans approved, but there seems little progress and the arguments are just going around in circles.\nMany of the politicians have an executive mba or online mba, they know what trouble they are in, but the country is so deep in debt that it continues to falter. There were signs that Greeks financial status was improving and everyone was relieved to see it moving up, but once again they are in demand of more money.\nIt seems the banks are now unwilling to meet the demands, which is understandable as they have increased the loans two or three times already and the European politicians have their own countries to worry about and are still arguing on whether to help or not, so the circle just keeps going around without any solid decisions being made.\nGreek will need the loans in order to run and at the moment they are so deep in debt that looking for flats to rent in Cape Town is definitely not an option for them right now. Even if they were to arrange coach hire to transport people around the country, they wouldn\u2019t be able to pay; this is how severe the situation is.\nAs a private individual if you are struggling with finances you can apply for a loan online, the same way you would do a search for melaleuca, but when you run a country which is now in billions of Euros in debt, you have no choice but to approach the European Union, putting a large strain on them.\nThe European Union appears to be unable to make a decision or get a loan granted for Greece as they continue their negotiations in Athens, time that could be spent on more important factors relating to their own countries and their own financial problems.\nThe recession has caused a lot of people and their countries to suffer with huge loans being handed out by the World Bank, the UK is also in considerable debt and is working hard to rectify the situation, but Greece seems to be stuck in a vicious rut which is causing disputes among the European Union.\nWhen you are looking for dreamweaver templates or family nurse practitioner programs, you go online and find them it\u2019s easy and simple. You can even find the diet solution program with a click of the mouse, such a pity that fixing a country\u2019s financial situation wasn\u2019t as easy as this.\nWill the European Union Last Under the Circumstances?\nWith many member nations of the European Union beginning to show serious signs of economic meltdown, the fate of this unique economic alliance is becoming a question now more than ever before. If the last few years are going to tell us anything, it is that there is a great divide separating the \u201chaves\u201d and \u201chave nots\u201d of Europe and in the face of the current economic crisis, that divide is only projected to grow; and its not as if that divide can be hidden by any of the best wrinkle cream on the market.\nIf we ask the question \u201cWill the European Union last under the circumstances\u201d here, remember that this is not the first time this question is being asked. While leaders like French President Nicolas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel continue to support and espouse the strength of the union, it is no secret that the current financial situation is showing the cracks and weaknesses of this once thriving alliance. You do not need masters of healthcare administration, masters of accounting, and masters in nursing programs to tell you the issues. These are plain for everyone to see.\nFirstly, there are no regulations covering fiscal responsibility particularly in the case of government borrowing. While the Union maintains a single fiscal policy when it comes to the common currency, every member nation is free to formulate its own borrowing strategy. From this came out the case of Greece which had to be bailed out because it can no longer meet its debt responsibilities. Italy, Portugal, and Spain among others are not far behind.\nSecondly, the obligation of addressing all these demands lies squarely on the shoulders of the \u201chaves\u201d and the amount to be paid by each contributing nation remains up for debate. The write-offs for Greece are only skin tightening at best, but it does not solve any of the system issues that have created the problem. Consequently, the system does not provide for an avenue to strategically pay off the issues and France and Germany, willing as they may be to foot the bill, are at the breaking point of crying foul over the fiscal irresponsibilities of the other members of the Union.\nIf the European Union is to last under the circumstances, then it needs a total medical detox of sorts. This begins with a common borrowing policy that France and Germany are keen on working out in the next few months. There will be no more government control of borrowing rates; each change in the interest rate will be subject to the review and approval of the union. Likewise, there has to be a clear system for sharing the financial responsibility associated with paying off the debts incurred by members states. A plan has to be put in place to ensure that the payment strategy is worked out and workable, not to mention fair to all concerned members. Instead of calling the mesothelioma lawyer, perhaps it would be better to prevent the mesothelioma in the first place, and that is certainly what France and Germany are looking to establish.\nWhether the European Union will last or not under the current circumstances depends on the work that will be accomplished in the next few months and years. Unless a clear strategy is formulated, it would be hard to pressure France and Germany to not back out of the Union resulting to the need for a ppi calculator to establish the claims and disband what is currently already a very good model for financial alliance. For this, the whole world is watching and every financial chief is grasping on a government cell phone ready to make a call to respond to what will happen.\nThe challenge has been set; the full response is yet to come. On it rests Europe\u2019s future as an alliance or as individual countries fighting to do their own business in an even tougher economic environment.\nWas forming the European Union a Good Idea?\nThe European Union has 27 European country members. It was a movement that was created after the Second World War to support the member countries in terms of economic growth. When they formed the somewhat organization among these countries, they were thinking about helping each other to create a better market, so, was it really effective? You can read article here to learn more about the treaties and provisions of the said political union.\nOne of the provisions that the union have successfully implemented is the use of a single currency for all the member countries, in this case, Euro. You can then buy top wrinkle creams in Luxemburg; you can use the same money when you buy it in Belgium. You can even use your best buy coupons in all of the 27 countries, as long as you use them in participating outlets. You don\u2019t have to get an online finance MBA degree to understand that this provision made it easy for all of these countries to trade. It also made each country dependent from other member countries in terms of manufacturing products and labor force. The union also serves as a debt management planner just like the debt help Scotland. Each country helps each other by providing loans to other countries so that they can fund other projects that would improve their city in terms of infrastructures, tourism, etc.\nCheating on words with friends is not a virtue that the union promotes. They actually encourage that the countries treat themselves as friends to be able to work altogether for the benefit of every member. It might be a political union but the programs that the movement should pass are projects that would create a good impact for the European community. A good example is the improved education system throughout the continent. The union even promotes its universities and colleges to international students to provide culture diversity. They also have several programs where in you can travel to different universities while finishing your degree program. For example, you can start your MBA healthcare management degree in Portugal and then finish it in Spain.\nThe European Union has had great effects to the citizens of its member countries. To date, Luxemburg is actually the richest country in the world, they can provide the highest salary for its workers and they have a very low crime rate. More than anything else, though the union has provided its citizens with great opportunity, the cooperation and the good communication between every member country is the key to the success of its programs. Thinking about their citizens sake first and not about themselves made the union a successful organization that gave good results, and hopefully, even better as time goes by.\nThe Biggest Mistake of the European Union\nWondering which is the biggest mistake the European Union has done so far, you are probably looking for some sold arguments to a certain scenario and this article should aid you discover more information on this matter. After all, learning the answer to this question does not at all resemble finding out the answer to the simple question does Amazon ship to Australia?. On the contrary, it is not even a matter of click here to find out more types of stories, but rather a serious issue that needs to be addressed properly.\nYou might now believe that you are going to need to hold on to a degree in finance and you will not even have to have graduated from some top online MBA schools in order to clearly see the point here. But this is not entirely true. For instance, you need to understand the fact that the Italian and the Greek issues you might have heard all about in the news are the main factors that are probably going to cause the sinking of the Euro zone and the European Union in itself. These countries needed more and more money to keep their people happy and their creditors well fed, so the European Union agreed to close its eyes, play the role of some smart and sturdy pull up bars for these two countries and play blind in front of their debts. Therefore, accumulated debts seem to be the one major mistake of the European Union. The downgrade of the Italian and the Greek debts has led to the current problems the EU is currently facing, which could be eventually leading to the entire collapse of this particularly strong financial zone.\nAfter having approved a huge 440 billion euro bailout fund for Greece, Italy, Spain, Ireland and Belgium, the European Union hardly feels like having passed form some RN to BSN online programs to some quantum physics online programs. The heavy load that has been placed on the shoulders of EU officials is making them state that they are going to need at least 800 billion Euros in order to stop the self-destroying process.\nThese bits of information should aid you understand the fact that the European banks which are currently and constantly struggling against the lack of enough capital will be even more affected. Hence, European consumers will eventually stop buying and also stop paying their debts.\nImpressively large amounts of money are thus needed in order to support the future existence of the Union, which is currently and also seriously being put under threat. Also, the fact that not all member states of the Union actually agreed with the covering of those huge debts of the previously mentioned countries, hence leading to more tension inside the Union is also part of the blame for the current events.\nThe European Financial Crisis of the Summer of 2012\nUnless you have been living under a rock so far, you must be familiar with the Fender stratocaster, the world-famous electric guitar that has made it into the homes of millions of music passionate. Such a guitar is normally costly, and the European crisis of the 2012 summer is highly likely to leave a lot of music fans drooling for the instrument. If you want to know more about this particular crisis that is occurring on the Old Continent, you could go ahead and read more within the next few lines.\nOne example of information you might be interested in knowing refers to one of the most recent developments in the area: Spain has agreed to accept the bailout that has been recommended to it by both Europe and the United States of America. The European finance ministers decided to offer and aid to the Spanish banks that are in much need of cash and the total sum could go as high as $125 billion. Following previous news, it would seem that Spain has made it on the list of the largest countries in Europe to accept emergency acceptance, on number four. According to specialists, Spain seems to have overcome its pride and accept the helpful financial package that is very likely to help the country and draw fewer strings to it, as compared to Greece and Portugal. The Spanish people should regard this aid as a special European medical aid program and use it in order to improve their economy.\nOther essential news you should know about the European crisis could refer to the following: Europeans are not advised to get any cash advance online aids using foreign currencies, as the instability in the area is making the American dollar or the Euro subject to many changes. The European Central Bank has struggled to leave its interest rate unchanged, and it emphasized the powerful tensions that are to be sensed in the Euro zone. The Greek problem and the permanent danger of the Helenic people running out of money by July are also not making things any easier. Solutions need to be found fast and they need to be strong enough to hold the area together, just like floor tape is needed to change of floors and keep the new ones well glued together.\nAlso, expensive male enhancement products are less likely to represent an attraction for the German people, as Germany has recently indicated at the beginning of June that it is ready to accept a grand bargain and would help pout the troubled Euro partners in the area, provided they would receive more centralized control. German authorities are planning to combine a lot of the bad debts in Europe into a single common fund and they are prepared to see the debt be paid over a 25-year time frame.\nThe Major Objectives of European Union\nThe European Treaty was put in place with a host of major objectives. Each objective is designed to improve quality of life throughoutEurope. There is also a section on foreign policy and what theUnionhopes to achieve throughout the world.\nThe European Union uses it\u2019s objectives to help guide the union and put necessary practices into place. You can continue reading to find out more.\nThe main objectives of the European Union is to promote peace, along with ensuring it\u2019s people\u2019s well-being and maintaining the values of theUnion.\nMajor Objectives Included in Union\nThe Unionworks hard to follow it\u2019s objectives including freedom and security with justice for all residents. They work to ensure a free and undistorted competition and a sustainable development through price stability and economic growth. Finding information about the Unionis easy on line, do a search the same as you would for Scottish Trust Deed or st. louis real estate.\nOther major objectives of the union include ensuring full employment, improving environmental quality and technological advancement. They work to fight discrimination, promote social justice and child protection rights.\nYou can think of the European Union as a muscle maximizer as they safeguard cultural heritage throughout the European areas while working hard to achieve their objectives.\nForeign Objectives\nWhen putting the European Treaty in place the objectives were not solely dedicated toEurope, they worked hard on a foreign policy as well, which is worked at on a daily basis.\nTheir foreign policy ensures fair trade. They want to eradicate poverty throughout the world while protecting human rights. They want to develop an international law, a sustainable environment and a sustainable development between countries while promoting peace.\nThis policy has not just been written down on a piece of paper and have lab rats following the rules. These are thought out to not only promote the well-being of people residing within Europe, but enable these people to work with other countries whether it\u2019s through trade or working to improve the quality of life in suffering areas.\nIf you go on line and search for tom hill or quibids, chances are you won\u2019t find anything about the European Unions objectives there, but they do play a part, through these sites they offer free trade and fair trade throughout the world.\nMany countries are happy working with the European Union as they work towards their objectives, using them as guidelines in the daily development of the area.Europehas close ties toAmericaand other countries where they import and export goods, work together to develop suffering areas and form a sustainable environment ensuring our children have a safe place to grow up in the future.\nThrough these European Union objectives, prime ministers and presidents are able to work together to develop the ideals that the Union is working towards. Through technological advancements the country will be able to enjoy a stable infrastructure where they can promote their stable prices and enjoy economic growth.\nDuties of United Nations\nWe have all heard about the United Nations, but does anyone really know what there duties are. They just seem to be there and we hear about them from time to time, they seem to be behind the scenes, but they have some real pull, they make some major decisions that affect everyone around the world.\nThe United Nations is a supreme group that facilitate international law, in other words this group facilitates the entire world. There are currently one hundred and ninety three states that are members of the group.\nThe United Nations is responsible for facilitating international law. When countries work together and one of them pulls out breaking the clause of an agreement, the United Nations is there to act as facilitator and mediator.\nThey are responsible in ensuring that all the countries work together under one law. You can learn more online.\nThe United Nations is also responsible for the security aspect of the world. They work to ensure that security measures are in place to keep everyone around the world safe. This means they are there to facilitate when wars break out between countries and they will try and resolve the issue, keeping the people secure. Additional info can be found online.\nThis group of top individuals are also responsible for ensuring social and economic development in all countries. They work closely with countries to assist them in improving their economy and ensuring better living and working conditions for the residents. This is not a new service, the United Nations have been working on economic development for many years.\nYour human rights can be protected by this group. They aim to facilitate human rights when everyone has turned their backs. So often you will find that even with their donated working capital, they will stand up and make a claim for human rights.\nWhile not everyone may agree with them, they have the pull to make decisions on where people should live to keep them safe if they are not going to be awarded a fair trial in their own country.\nEverything about the United Nations is working towards World Peace. While this is not always possible, countries can take advantage of their services to ensure the smooth running of their country and smooth negotiations with other countries.\nFrom laying down the law to ensuring a countries security and from economic development to human rights, the United Nations have a lot of duties on their hands as they work to world peace.\nThey basically manage the world. This is the easiest way to explain it. They govern the law, they help suffering countries and they lay down the law when it comes to human rights. They are the governing body of the world. With their court system for international law and their security teams, they are able to ensure the everything around the world runs as smoothly as possible, making it a better place to live.\nDestruction Caused By World Wars\nBenjamin Franklin, famed scientist and one of The Founding Fathers, said it best when he said \u201cThere was never a good war or a bad peace.\u201d The two World Wars that have gone through have both been fought for various reasons that were necessary, one way or another, but the destruction and casualties that followed may serve to negate that idea. You don\u2019t need a professional institute to spell out the destruction that is caused by the World Wars but if you want a primer, then there are facts that are very hard to dismiss.\nWorld War I. The First World War happened from 1914 to 1918 and was fought between the Allied Forces of France, Russia, and the United Kingdom against the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy. You don\u2019t have to keep reading to know that this war was a major scourge to human life affecting more than 37 million people. The total number of deaths was estimated to be 16 million with another 20 million wounded.\nThe destruction of World War I was among the most widespread of the major wars as it was fought on many fronts. World War I saw too many countries who chose to dismiss the lig tv izle mentality and were instead caught in the crossfire. Wars were fought as far south as Africa with French and British forces waged war over Togoland in what is now modern Togo and Ghana. Destruction was also widespread in many locations including Serbia and even in the Asia Pacific as far as New Zealand. The financial and political destruction that the war left in its wake was also mind-numbing as a total of more than 5,000 ships and 199 submarines were sunk during the war.\nWorld War II.If World War I sounded like it was the most horrific war to have ever happened based on destruction and casualty alone, the toll from World War II was even more sweeping. It was equivalent to many bulging discs acting up at once, killing as many as 60 million people and affecting about 50 million others. All in all, more than 2.5% of the world\u2019s population at that time died from the war.\nThe financial implications of the war was also widespread. Germany, Poland, and many sections of France and the United Kingdom were leveled to the ground. Russia was not spared, and while Stalin did not embrace a \u201ctake it and leave it\u201d attitude, he suffered more before his country responded.\nIn total, 33,700 planes were lost over Europe during the period as well as 3,500 Allied merchant ships and 783 U-boats sunk. More than 57,000 tanks from Russia alone were also lost in the war. Those numbers did not yet include the cost from Japan waging war in the Pacific but you could tell one needs more than a truck accident lawyer to get that kind of devastation and destruction in order.\nBut perhaps the biggest awakening to the senselessness of World War II were the two nuclear bombs, Fat Man and Little Boy, detonated over the Japanese cities of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Those bombs brought the war to a halt and the idea of nuclear deterrence was set into motion.\nIndeed, the world does not gain anything out of war and the casualty and destruction that the First and Second World Wars created were grim reminders of what can happen when man goes overboard. There is plenty of cause to hope that no World War has to ever happen again because as Ben Franklin once said it, \u201cThere is never a good war or a bad peace.\u201d\nWhat really happened in causing World Wars?\nThroughout history, we have put efforts to live in peace and harmony with each other. Although we inhabit the whole planet across all 7 continents, we somehow found ways to have mutual interaction through trading and migration. More powerful nations slowly expanded their empire and degree of influence to neighboring countries or to unchartered territories. Once in a while, conflicts among nations erupt. To date, two costly world wars have occurred in the 20th century: World War I and World War II. Why do world wars occur in the first place?\nAccording to Wikipedia, a world war is \u201c\u2026a war affecting most of the world\u2019s most powerful and populous countries.\u201d When multiple countries on multiple continents are involved, world war occurs. In the Second World War, battles were fought in multiple theaters, such as the European Theater and Pacific Asian Theatre.\nBefore the outbreak of World War I in 1914, there were many large scale wars that involved several countries spanning multiple continents. For instance, Ramesses II, the Egyptian pharaoh who reigned in 1279-1213 BC, embarked on many battles to reclaim territories held by the Nubians and Hittites as well as to secure the borders of Egypt against external attacks.\nWWI began in July 28, 1914 until November 11, 1918. Battles were fought in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, the Pacific Islands, China, and off the coast of South and North America. The United States, United Kingdom, Russia, and France fought the European Central Powers of Germany, Austrian-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire.\nWar was seemingly imminent as conflicts and hostilities between the great European powers were building up for decades leading up to the war. On June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, and his wife Sophie were assassinated in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip, a Yugoslav nationalist. The assassination became the trigger for World War I as the major powers were at war within weeks and the conflict later on spread around the world.\nWorld War II erupted in September 1, 1939 and culminated in September 2, 1945. Battles were fought in Europe, Pacific, Atlantic, South-East Asia, China, Middle East, Mediterranean, Africa, and briefly in North and South America. The Second World War went off in Europe because the Allied Powers of the USA, Soviet Union, UK, and France (with the cooperation of other countries) didn\u2019t want Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany to inhumanly dominate Europe. In Asia, Allied forces waged war with Japan as it started its own plans of ruling East Asia. Fears of a Third World War came about when the USA had a tense Cold War with the Soviet Union in the late 1940s until the early 1990s.\nGenerally speaking, world wars happen when good forces try to prevent bad forces from doing much worse or someone hack facebook.

I just learned through Kelly Jolkowski of ProjectJason that AMW is now proceeding with the show and the first one aired last night. I did confirm that AMW still has John\u2019s information and will be featuring his story at some point hopefully soon. I\u2019ll let you know when that happens. We\u2019re also still waiting for ID Discovery\u2019s project to proceed as well.\nIn the meantime I\u2019m also still waiting for Dave Stubben and Suzanne to take lie detector tests.

My thoughts and prayers are with John\u2019s family and friends. May the person or persons guilty be brought to justice.\nThanks for letting me know. I had no idea the sign was removed and am very upset by that. I don\u2019t know why it was taken down and believe it should stay up until he\u2019s found so that the guy responsible can look at it everyday when he goes to and from work.",

        "raw_content": "Programming requires a lot of concentration. When I program, I need a steady supply of background music to stop me from getting distracted and to help me focus.\nI am quite picky about the music I listen to:\nIt needs to be totally non-distracting. Meaning very few words, if any at all.\nMy concentration needs to last for as long as possible, so uninterrupted music, and no DJ or adverts please.\nI get bored of music really quickly so a constant supply of new music is also required.\nThis requirement has been a problem for me for several years. Back in the 90\u2019s, I used to record the Radio 1 Essential Mix onto cassettes. I figured it was ok to tape Radio shows which were being broadcast for free, and anyway, the dreadful music played during the day was enough to force anyone to come up with a way of bringing the excellent late-night speciality shows to normal office hours.\nUnfortunately, recording was difficult as it was necessary to stay up until 2am to press record and then remember to turn the tape over after 45 minutes. Over a period of 2/3 years, I probably only managed to get 10 or 15 mixes onto tape and the quality was not the best.\nMy problem subsided for a while as I went through a phase of buying the back catalogues of the Global Underground, Fabric and FabricLive compilation sets, but buying CDs can be costly when done in bulk and even then, the mixes would rarely be released more often than once a month. This was an expensive hobby to keep up.\nIn 2007 I turned to the Internet again as I realised I could use the BBC\u2019s \u201cListen again\u201d feature to record the Essential Mix at any time during the week. This new method of recording, combined with my collection of CDs gave me quite a large bank of music. However remembering to record the mixes was still a hassle, surely it could be easier?\nDuring 2008, something amazing happened. The problem was not solved once or even twice, within a few months I had found 4 incredible ways to listen to as much music as I want all for free.\nFirstly I discovered Internet radio stations such as DI.fm which provide a huge range of non-stop mixes 24 hours a day.\nThen I signed up for Last.fm . A fully legal service which provides a large selection of songs for free over the Internet, without adverts.\nNext, I found an application for my mobile, an Apple iPhone , which allows me to connect to any radio station in the world. It\u2019s called WunderRadio and uses the RadioTime technology.\nFinally, BBC released its excellent iPlayer website which allows anyone to listen to any Radio 1 show from the past 7 days.\nThere is no turning back, the Internet now supplies everyone with fresh, new music non-stop. And it is all free and fully legal.\n\u00ab How to aggregate all of the answers to your StackOverflow questions into a single feed using Yahoo! pipes\nThis entry was posted on Sunday, April 12th, 2009 at 2:29 am and is filed under Programming.

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s Not All Pretty\nNot everything about San Francisco is beautiful and great, but I try to focus on the good things. That is easy to do in the beginning, but once you\u2019ve been somewhere for while, you begin to see things from a more realistic perspective. Kind of like the way a student views college as a freshman, and then as a senior. Most of you know what I mean ;)\nSan Francisco has a lot of homeless, bums, hippies, and just downright crazy people. I don\u2019t give money to any of them, make eye contact, or stop walking when I\u2019m near them. Seriously, a lot of them are crazy and for all I know, they could use the money to go buy crack. I gave some food to a guy once because he was actually asking for food and I happened to have some. Besides that, I just keep my head down when I walk by them.\nOverall, I haven\u2019t had a problem or gotten lost using the public transportation here. It can get a bit pricey, though. The nice thing is that the layout of the city makes sense; it is like a grid and you can see really far on a lot of streets because they are straight.\nMany people complain about the fog that rolls in over the city. I still find it to be pretty neat because it\u2019s new to me, but I haven\u2019t lived in an area of the city yet that gets a lot of fog. I see how that could be dreary.\nPerhaps the most obvious negative about the city is the high cost of living. A sublet of a single bedroom in a flat where you share common areas with other people is almost always $1000 minimum. The prices of course, change depending on where you are in the city, but that\u2019s just to give you an idea. Everyone complains about how hard it is to find a place in the city. Based on what I can tell, it is a simple supply and demand problem. There is so much demand from people who want to live in the city and not enough housing for everyone, so the price goes up as a result. That\u2019s why it surprises me that there aren\u2019t more housing high-rises.\nOn the plus side, I haven\u2019t found groceries, daily essentials, or basic restaurant fare to be any more expensive than they are back home. I kind of get all excited when I go to the City Target and they have all the same products that they have in all other Targets.

        "raw_content": "Mar 3 Full Justication\nFull justification, typographically speaking, is where the lines on a page are flush, each one the same to the margin. As a kid, I'd look at a novel and wonder how they did it. How can the author write so perfectly as to have all the words and the spaces between be exactly what is needed to have the book look professional. I'd think something along those lines. What I didn't understand is that all it takes is the click of a button. And there you have it. All the lines expand or contract. The words and letters kern in relation to one another and you have a perfectly justified book--ready for press. Brilliant. And it's that way with God and us. Only for one reason though. It's because Jesus lived every word, every line perfectly. To where we can now be fully justified without trying. It can be a lifelong struggle to realize this. Because it necessarily boils down to where our will clashes with God's. Do we let Him live through us? Or, after accepting Christ's sacrifice on our behalf, do we ignore this primal fact, that it's no longer up to us to \"do it right\". Now, we have the privilege of living for God. Nothing we can do will make us any righter, any more justified than what Jesus has already secured for us.\n\"For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 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.\" (Titus 3:3-5)\n\"Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus.\" (2 Corinthians 7:6)\nThere's a lot of good stuff in Paul's letter to Titus. His \"own son after the common faith\" (1:4), Paul's letter to Titus is a quick, sharp, black-and-white exposition (a mere three chapters) on what it means to be a Christian and to be placed, by the grace of God, in charge of a community of believers. The above passage lays out the concept of \"justification by faith\". Over the centuries, the concept has been parried (Martin Luther, \"sola fide\") and fought over and misunderstood by many. The correlation is, not that I have \"the. right. answer.\" but that, in my opinion, the idea is a simple one to grasp. The believer's relationship with their Lord is something that spans their entire life, all its constituent parts, as well as the whole of the Bible. Its story is His story is ours. One line, one word at a time.\nThere's an ancient writing technique called boustrophedon. It was used in pre-Hellenic (b. 750 B.C.) Greece and literally means \"like an ox turning\". It's a left-to-right, right-to-left method where every other line is mirrored. With reference to that and the concept of an \"ox turning\", Solomon says \"Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox.\" (Proverbs 14:4) What Solomon is saying here is that, in order to utilize the \"strength of the ox\", you'll inevitably deal with the waste. Pared down to a simple understanding, it's akin to being grateful we have a life to live--warts and all. Better than the alternative.\nBut after the kindness and love of God our Saviour...\nThis is the bedrock. This is the way God is all the time. It's when we forget this that we tend to bleed over into thinking that God may be angry with us or that our actions speak louder than, not our words, but the attitude of our heart. Actions certainly do speak louder than words, but it's the attitude of our heart that God is always interested in. There are times in my day and my life where it takes forever for me to simply tell God I'm miserable. That something's bothering me or grating on me or even pissing me off. Just because God \"sees all and knows all\", doesn't mean that I don't need, need to talk to Him. He's always interested in what is going on in my heart. Maybe because He's there in my heart with both me and also whatever grit seems to be grinding my gears. \"The kindness and love of God our Saviour.\" God paid the ultimate price through Jesus in order that I could enjoy myself. Because aside from Him and His (not a simple statement to dismiss), myself--my true self--is the greatest gift He has given to me.\nAn anopisthograph is a bound book with writing on one side of its pages. This might sound like a bit of a stretch, allegorically speaking, but when we choose to sit out of a life fully lived before God, mistakes and all, it's like we only have writing on one side of us. God would have us do our best to mirror what He has done for us by, not writing over what He's done--that's like trying to earn our own salvation again--but by doing the best we can where we're at. When we add His words to our story, they fill the page. Then, He gives us the privelege of \"working out our own salvation\" (Philippians 2:12). God let's us get in on the narrative after we realize that He's the one who thought us up.\nNot by works of righteousness which we have done...\nAncient Greece, God, Jesus, justification, Paul, sola fide, typeface, wirting\nMar 2 Error Messages (Imminent Domain part 5)\nMay 19 Refresher Course",

Now Monte Pittman returns with a three part EP set entitled \u201cM.P.3: The Power Of Three.\u201d He just released part one, which is entirely acoustic as he gets back to his roots in song-writing. The second part which will be a \u201cmetal\u201d album and third part which will be a \u201cblues\u201d album will be released over the course of the next year.\nThe new album starts out with the dark acoustic sound of \u201cAnother Lesson I\u2019ve Learned\u201d as Monte brings up the ghost of Layne Stanley.

        "raw_content": "It was a primary place for the Franciscans to join; it was basically a convent. They also brought tombs from their old convent. Jaime II contributed to its edification (approximately in 1281.) In the Basilica de Sant Francesc, you will find the tomb of Ramon Lull who wrote several textbooks about theology, philosophy and poetry, and he was pretty much immersed in the religious life. He also tried to make its religion reachable to the Arab world.\nThe Basilica de Sant Francesc had only one nave of 74 meters long and 17 meters wide. It is been made in a gothic style. You may think that the interior of the church can serve as a complement to the external part of it. Also, there is a beautiful garden of flowers that you will surely appreciate once you decide to visit it.\nPeople say that the actual church does not resemble at all the church that was originally constructed. It is said that the principal fa\u00e7ade was struck by a lightning and had to be restored in 1621. It has a beautiful circular window that could be appreciated in its own principal fa\u00e7ade. The Basilica de Sant Francesc has seven chapels and each one of them has a different form and style. It has a cloister that holds a trapezoidal form and it is an example of the beauty that this church contains.",

        "raw_content": "A game designer is a person who designs games. The term can refer to a person who designs video games.\nKef Sensei game designers develop the layout, concept and gameplay, the game design of the computer games. This may include playfield design, specification writing, and entry of numeric properties that balance and tune the gameplay. A game designer works for a developer (which may additionally be the game\u2019s video game publisher).\nThis person usually has a lot of writing experience and may even have a degree in writing, communication, advertising or a related field. This person\u2019s primary job function is writing, so the more experience they have with that activity, the better. Some art and programming skills are also helpful for this job, but are not strictly necessary. Game designers often have studied relevant liberal arts such as psychology, sociology, drama, fine art or philosophy. Due to the increasing complexity of the game design process, many young game designers may also come from a computer science or other computer engineering background.\nIn the video game industry the job of game designer is often seen as desirable, especially to young gamers wishing to join the industry, and has been likened to that of a film director.\nThe design of the game is critical and the industry has been repeatedly criticised for choosing to develop sequels and licensed titles where sales are more certain, rather than investing in new game ideas. Kef Sensei writers are focused on creating new ideas and gameplay.\nThe first video games were designed in the 1960s and 1970s by programmers for whom creating games was a hobby, since there was no way to sell them or earn money from creating games (the games required large mainframe computers to play). Some were designed by electrical engineers as exhibits for visitors to computer labs (OXO, Tennis for Two), others by college students who wrote games for their friends to play (Spacewar!, Star Trek, Dungeon).\nSome of the games designed during this era, such as Zork, Baseball, Air Warrior and Adventure later made the transition with their game designers into the early video game industry.\nEarly in the history of video games, game designers were often the lead programmer or the only programmer for a game, and this remained true as the video game industry dawned in the 1970s. This person also sometimes comprised the entire art team. This is the case of such noted designers as Sid Meier, Chris Sawyer and Will Wright. A notable exception to this policy was Coleco, which from its very start separated the function of design and programming.\nA level designer is the person who creates levels, challenges or missions for computer and/or video games using a specific set of programs. These programs may be commonly available commercial 3D or 2D design programs, or specially designed and tailored level editors made for a specific game.\nIn addition to actually making the environments the player inhabits in the game, the level designer also works on enemy or Non-player character placement or scripted story events.\nWhile developing a game, the level designer is responsible for producing scenarios that the player will enjoy. The designer will work on a level from design to completion, though he is not usually the sole editor of the level. For each level in a modern game, this task involves documenting its design, modeling or laying out its environment, and placing game entities in it. To perform these duties, many level designers have skills as both a visual artist and as a game designer.\nA number of individuals have made significant contributions to the field of PC First Person Shooter (FPS) level design are: John Romero, responsible for a great deal of the level design for Doom, and Richard \u201cLevelord\u201d Gray, creator of a number of levels for Duke Nukem 3D and SiN.\nIn the field of console game design, examples of notable contributions would come from the level designers on The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo 64 \u2013 Makoto Miyanaga, Hiromasa Shikata, Hiromu Takemura, Shinichi Ikematsu, Takeshi Hosono and Kenta Usui (who also worked on Super Mario 64), and Craig Filshie, Andrew Duthie, Chris Rothwell, Imran Sarwar, Ross A.J. Wallace, Jim McMahon and William Mills for work on the Grand Theft Auto series.",

        "title": "Flavonoids - Are You Ready for a Change?",
        "raw_content": "Flavonoids are polyphenols abundantly found in fruits, vegetables, and herbs (eg. tea, ginger root). Flavonoids are synthesized only in plants. They are a diverse group of phytochemicals, exceeding four thousand in number. From a human nutrition perspective, flavonoids are important components of a healthy diet because of their antioxidant activity. Nevertheless, the antioxidant potency and specific effect of flavonoids in promoting human health varies depending on the flavonoid type (chemical, physical, and structural properties). Among the potent antioxidant flavonoid types are quercetin, catechins and xanthohumol. Flavonoid science is a research area rapidly gaining deeper insight on the health benefit and chemical property of flavonoids.\nFlavonoids and Their Food Sources\nExample of dietary flavonoid sources include:\nSome nuts and certain beans, in addition to being high in protein, are also high in flavonoids. Dark beans such as black and kidney beans tend to be higher in flavonoids from the anthycyanidins group including delphinidin, malvidin, petunidin and kaempferol while beans that are consumed in an immature form such as fava beans or pinto snap beans are rich in flavonols such as epicatechin and epigallocatechin. Walnuts and pecans are high in anthocyanidins while pistachios and cashews are high in the flavonols catechins. The king of all plant proteins is the soybean, which is high in catechins and a particular type of flavonoid, the isoflavone group including genistein and daidzein.\nMost vegetables contain quantities of flavonoids, particularly green and red vegetables. Members of the nightshade family including peppers, tomatoes and eggplants are high in the flavonols, quercetin and the flavones luteolin. Onions, particularly red onions and green onions, are also high in quercetin. Green vegetables such as celery and artichokes are high in the flavones apigenin and lut eolin, while vegetables such as snap beans, okra and broccoli are high in flavonols including quercetin, kaempferol and myricetin.\nTea: Green, white or black tea are a rich source of flavonoids, especially flavonols (catechin, epicatechin, epigallocatechin, epicatechin gallate). Tea is a good source of quecertin. Kombucha is fermented with tea and is loaded with other life changing benefits.\nOnions: The major flavonoid in onions is quercetin. Other flavonoids in onion are kaempferol and myricertin.\nHoney: Depending on the flower type the bees feed on, honey contains myricertin, and quercetin.\nBerries: Many of the berries are high in flavonoids, particularly red, blue and purple berries. Darker and riper berries tend to have higher flavonoid value and processing may reduce levels. Blueberries and cranberries are known to contain quantities of the flavonol group including quercetin and myricetin. Blackberries and black grapes are high in the flavonoids epicatechin and catechin while raspberries, cherries and red grapes may be high in anthocyanidins and cyanidin.The concentration and composition of flavonoids in plants may vary depending on the growing condition, maturity, plant part, and variety.\nFruits that grow on trees have been shown to be high in flavonoids. Bananas contain quantities of anthocyanidins including cyanidin and delphinidin. Citrus fruits including grapefruit, lemons, limes and oranges are high in the flavonone group of flavonoids including hesperetin, naringenin and eriodictyol. Members of the Rosaceae family of tree fruits including apples, pears, plums, peaches and apricots are known to be high in catechin and epicatechin and are best if consumed raw with the skin on.\nSome spices and flavoring agents are particularly high in certain types of flavonoids, and, while generally consumed in smaller quantities, may still offer some health benefits particularly if used while fresh. Dill is known to be high in the flavonols quercetin and isorhamnetin while parsley is high in apigenin along with isorhamnetin. Thyme is high in the flavones luteolin and capers though rarely used are very high in the flavonols kaempferol and quercetin. The best news for some people may be that raw cacao is known to be very high in catechins, particularly if consumed in the dark variety.\nTypes of Flavonoids\nAnthocyanins are found in nearly all plants, but the highest concentrations are in plants with red and blue coloring, such as berries. Plants high in anthocyanins are blueberries, blackberries, grapes, cranberries and eggplants. In plants, anthocyanins act as antioxidants, protect against UV light and provide color to flowers to attract pollinating insects. This flavonoid is used in conjunction with cancer treatment\nCarotenes are red and yellow pigments found in all plants. There are more than 600 identified types of carotenes. Common foods with high concentrations of carotenes are leafy greens, carrots, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, squash, grapefruit and apricots. Carotenes are used as a way to prevent cancer. Deficiencies in carotenes have been linked to skin, lung, cervix and gastrointestinal cancers, and to cataracts and macular degeneration. An excess of carotenes in the body can turn the skin orange.\nCatechins, also called proanthocyanidins, are present in a wide variety of foods. Foods that contain catechins are teas, chocolate, beans, apricots, red raspberries and red wine. Catechins are linked to good feelings, and studies have shown that catechins might help metabolize and reduce body fat. Catechins have also been found to protect the heart and prevent cancer, and to possesses anti-microbial properties.\nFlavones, Flavonols and Flavanones\nFlavones, flavonols and flavanones are three similar flavonoid types found in a variety of plants. Flavones are found in the highest concentrations in parsley and celery. Flavonol foods include onion, kale, broccoli, lettuce, tomato, apple, grape, berries, tea and red wine. In leafy greens, the greener the leaf, the higher the concentration of flavonols. Flavanones are found predominantly in citrus fruits such as lemon, grapefruit and orange juices.\nThe main source of isoflavones is from soybeans and related products. Isoflavones have been linked to the prevention of breast cancer, prostate cancer, heart disease and osteoporosis. The chemical structure of isoflavones is very similar to that of estrogen. This can cause problems in the body in the production of estrogen, or it can be beneficial by helping to reduce symptoms of menopause.\nQuercetin is a plant-derived flavonoid commonly taken as a nutritional supplement. Quercetin has been linked to supporting the immune system, clearing excess congestion, supporting bone health, and may aid in fighting mild allergy problems. It is also used in some weight control programs. Quercetin, like other flavonoids, is an antioxidant that travels throughout the body removing harmful free radicals. Studies have also shown that quercetin may also be a potential solution to cardiovascular disease, a leading cause of death in the United States.\nThis idea came from a recent study conducted to study the effects of quercetin on overweight people with high cardiovascular risk. This plant-derived flavonoid was tested on a group of ninety-three overweight and obese subjects ranging from ages twenty-five to sixty-five. Each individual was given only 150mg of quercetin per day, while regular quercetin capsules are weighted at 500mg and can be taken up to three times a day. Over the six-week trial period of taking quercetin in smaller doses, the capsule was found to lower blood pressure and significantly prevent damage to LDL cholesterol. Since only damaged LDL cholesterol causes plaque build up, quercetin was shown to prevent Cardiovascular Disease overall.\nThe results from this study present new-found information about the effectiveness of quercetin. Previous to this groundbreaking study, it was not known if quercetin taken by itself would have any effect on cardiovascular health. Now supplementing with quercetin can be done with confidence, as we now know individual flavonoids such as quercetin are indeed potent.\nOn top of preventing cardiovascular disease, quercetin is capable of saving even more lives in different ways. In 2006, 56,561 people died from hypertension in the United States. With one in three adults suffering from high blood pressure, quercetin could lower the number of deaths occurring due to hypertension.\nIn addition to cardiovascular disease and hypertension, quercetin along with other flavonoids has proven to protect against cancer. Flavonoids are found in fruits and vegetables and have been proven to lower the risk of cancer. Fruits and vegetables alone also contain many anti-cancer properties, including a multitude of antioxidants and other nutrients. Another means of taking in flavonoids is through quercetin supplementation. With supplementation you can get higher doses of quercetin without eating excessive amounts of foods rich in quercetin.\nIn another smaller study, the effects of quercetin were also shown to aid in fighting inflammatory problems such as prostatitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis are suggested to follow a diet consisting of uncooked fruits and vegetables, seeds, and nuts. Men with prostatitis have also been shown to have more relief from symptoms when taking quercetin than men taking a placebo.\nQuercetin is a natural alternative to expensive pharmaceuticals that come with a host of side effects.\nLycopene belongs to the family of carotenoids. It has a structure that consists of a long chain of conjugated double bonds, with two open end rings. The structure lycopene is the longest of all carotenoids.\nLycopene is the red pigment of ripe tomatoes. Tomatoes contribute over 85% of the lycopene intake by women. Lycopene is also found in guava, pink grapefruit, red oranges and watermelon.\nLycopene is a very efficient antioxidant, which can neutralize oxygen derived free radicals. The oxidative damage caused by these free radicals has been linked to many degenerative diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, premature aging, cancer and cataracts. In many countries it is legally allowed to advertise foods containing tomato lycopene as \"containing antioxidants for the maintenance and support of healthy cells\". Lycopene is generally known for its protective action against prostate cancer.\nIn vitro-studies have shown the anti-cancer properties of lycopene against many cancer cells, including cancer cells of prostate, stomach, lung, colon and skin. There are numerous studies about the effect of lycopene on cancer and prostate cancer in particular. More than 80 scientific studies have the names lycopene and prostate in their title. Most of the experiments using cultured prostate cancer cells demonstrate a protective effect. However, most literature review studies or clinical studies are less conclusive and often contradictory. Lycopene also shows anti-mutagenic action against chemically induced DNA damage. Antibacterial and antifungal Lycopene possesses antibacterial and antifungal properties. Lycopene can help to reduce inflammation of the gums and can help to fight infections of Candida albicans.\nDiabetes patients may suffer from complications as vascular disease, diabetic neuropathies or infections. Lycopene helps to protect diabetes patients against cardiovascular disease and may improve the immune response.\nHowever, the consumption of lycopene seems not to reduce the risk of diabetes mellitus type 2.\nLycopene has a structure similar to that of the well-known antioxidant beta-carotene, but its antioxidant activity is much stronger. Treatment of cells will lycopene protects cells against DNA damage and lipid peroxidation.\nLycopene inhibits platelet aggregation and reduces the production of foam cells which play an important role in the development of arteriosclerosis. Lycopene helps to prevent arteriosclerosis by reducing inflammatory agents in rats increased risk of venous thrombosis.\nIn laboratory conditions, lycopene shows antitoxic properties against many toxins such as aflatoxin, cyclosporine and cadmium.\nSeveral researchers have found that organic food contains more of these nutrients than conventionally produced foods. For instance, organic tomatoes contained 79% more flavonoids! Moreover, cooked tomatoes products may contain six times more lycopene than their fresh counterparts. This makes organic pasta sauces a super rich source of these nutrients and they are super easy to use.\nBeneficial effects of flavonoids on human health are partly explained by their antioxidant activity. Because of the antioxidative property, it is suggested that flavonoids may delay or prevent the onset of diseases (such as cancer) induced by free radicals. They also inhibit low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation by free radicals. Flavonoids have been reported to have negative correlation with incidence of coronary heart disease. Furthermore, flavonoids have anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antiallergenic, and vasodilatory effect. They also inhibit platelet aggregation.",

        "title": "Turmeric - Are You Ready for a Change?",
        "raw_content": "The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin. Tumeric has been used for over 2500 years in India, where it was most likely first used as a dye.\nThe medicinal properties of this spice have been slowly revealing themselves over the centuries. Long known for its anti-inflammatory properties, recent research has revealed that turmeric is a natural wonder, proving beneficial in the treatment of many different health conditions from cancer to Alzheimer's disease.\nHere are 20 health benefits of turmeric:\n7. May prevent and slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease by removing amyloyd plaque buildup in the brain.\nOnce you start using turmeric on a regular basis, it's fun to find new ways to use it in recipes. My favorite way to use it is to add a pinch of it to egg salad. It adds a nice flavor and gives the egg salad a rich yellow hue.\nCurcumin is believed to improve the solubility of bile, making bile and its compounds, including those that form gallstones, easier to dissolve. A daily dose of turmeric, about \u00bd a teaspoon daily, can dissolve as many as 80% of gallstones.\nTurmeric, and its bioactive ingredient curcumin, has been scientifically proven as an effective counteractive agent against cancer, auto-immune disease, inflammatory disease, and a whole lot more.\nIf you are a lover of Indian food, then you\u2019re likely familiar with the pleasant aroma of the yellow herbal root, turmeric.\nBut besides its delicious flavour profile, turmeric has a plethora of medicinal applications, used widely in Chinese herbal medicine as well as in Ayurvedic medicine. Even Western medicine has recognized the medicinal value of turmeric, as seen in the incredible amount of scientific literature available today surrounding curcumin, the bioactive ingredient in turmeric.\nIt actually exhibits over 150 potentially therapeutic activities, including anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity, as well as containing potent anti-cancer properties that have been studied intensely.\nWhat Research Has Discovered About Curcumin (Turmeric)\nResearchers have found that curcumin has a positive effect on multiple systems in the body. For one, curcumin has been found to modulate around 700 of our genes. Furthermore, it modulates over 160 physiological pathways.\nCurcumin also regulates our cell membranes, allowing for more efficient transport of molecules in and out of the cell.\nBut one of the most amazing aspects of curcumin is its positive effect on signalling molecules, which, if gone awry, can lead to chronic inflammatory responses, autoimmune responses, issues with DNA and RNA regulation, and more. In short, curcumin is a vastly important ingredient in the prevention of almost all types of diseases.\nWhy Turmeric Is Being Used To Treat Alzheimer\u2019s & Other Inflammatory Diseases\nResearch has also discovered applications of curcumin in treating Alzheimer\u2019s and joint health.\nCurcumin is capable of crossing your blood-brain barrier, which is one factor that has led researchers to investigate its potential as a neuroprotective agent for neurological disorders such as Parkinson\u2019s and Alzheimer\u2019s disease.\nIn his article, Turmeric\u2014A \u201cUniversal\u201d Cancer Treatment, and Much More, Dr. Mercola outlines a newly discovered compound in turmeric called aromatic turmerone, which helps endogenous neutral stem cells (NSC) to grow, and these stem cells play an important role in brain repair and regeneration activities. Here\u2019s what he had to say about curcumin\u2019s neuroprotective properties:\nCurcumin Kicks Cancer\u2019s Butt\nNot surprisingly, curcumin actually has the most evidence-based anti-cancer literature out of any other herb.\nAs noted by Dr. William LaValley\u2014one of the leading natural medicine cancer physicians, curcumin is unique in that it appears to be universally useful for just about every type of cancer. This is odd, considering the fact that cancer consists of a wide variety of different molecular pathologies.\nOne reason for this universal anti-cancer proclivity is curcumin\u2019s ability to affect multiple molecular targets via multiple pathways.\nOnce it gets into a cell, it affects more than 100 different molecular pathways. And, as Dr. LaValley notes, whether the curcumin molecule causes an increase in activity of a particular molecular target or decrease/inhibition of activity, studies repeatedly show that the end result is a potent anti-cancer activity.\nMoreover, curcumin is non-toxic, and does not adversely affect healthy cells, suggesting it selectively targets cancer cells\u2014all of which are clear benefits in cancer treatment. Research has even shown that it works synergistically with certain chemotherapy drugs, enhancing the elimination of cancer cells.\nImportant Notes About Turmeric Sourcing\nThe yellow turmeric spice you find on your local grocery store shelves won\u2019t offer you the same medicinal value as properly extracted and sourced curcumin.\nThe turmeric root itself contains only about three percent curcumin concentration, and curcumin is poorly absorbed by your body to boot. When taken in its raw form, you\u2019re only absorbing about one percent of the available curcumin. Even in supplement form it\u2019s unlikely to provide the results shown in various disease studies. If you want to use curcumin therapeutically, you can try one of the following three alternatives recommended by Dr. Mercola:\nLocate a high quality turmeric extract that contains 100 percent certified organic ingredients, with at least 95 percent curcuminoids. The formula should be free of fillers, additives, and excipients (a substance added to the supplement as a processing or stability aid), and the manufacturer should use safe production practices at all stages: planting, cultivation, selective harvesting, and then when producing and packaging the final product. Typical anticancer doses are up to three grams of good bioavailable curcumin extract, three to four times daily.\nSource: http://www.collective-evolution.com/2015/05/07/how-turmeric-upgrades-your-organ-systems-effectively-treats-all-cancers-inflammatory-diseases-more/",

It's bordered by Vancouver to the west, Burrard Inlet to the north, New Westminster and Coquitlam to the east, and the Fraser River to the south.\nJust 12 kilometers east of downtown Vancouver, Burnaby grew from farms and forests to Vancouver dormintory town to major regional centre in its own right. Today the city is a thriving residential area containing major commercial, industrial, and educational activities.\nBurnaby's geography is varied. It's dynamic urban development has occurred around two large fresh-water lakes, forested parkland and hills, rivers and streams, and Pacific shoreline along the Burrard Inlet. Burnaby also includes an agricultural district that produces market garden crops.\nOne big advantage of Burnaby is its excellent road connections to the rest of the Greater Vancouver Regional District. Both the Millenium and Expo lines of the SkyTrain rapid transit system run through it. SkyTrain links Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, Surrey and the south east corner of Coquitlam. Future plans include extending the Millenium line through Port Moody to Coquitlam Centre.\nBurnaby supports three large malls, each keys to the regional urban town centers built up around them, Metropolis at Metrotown, Brentwood Centre and Lougheed Mall.

        "raw_content": "Epiphany Part III: Moving On\nTo recap my rambling journey thus far, please click the links below:\nEpiphany Part I: The Accident\nEpiphany Part II: The Aftermath\nSo, for those of you that have been following my story thus far--you know I pretty much crumbled after my accident, right?\nSo what was it that finally helped me out of the deep dark hole I found myself in?\nTo most people (even my husband) this sticker wasn't significant at all.\nBut it wasn't for them. It was for me.\nIt meant something TO ME.\nAnd finding it there, on the dash of my totaled car at the tow-lot, days after the accident, was HUGE.\nIt was a sticker from a Christmas Eve service I went to at church the year before. I kept it under a pile of CD's in my truck, mostly because that's where it landed on my way home from the service. I didn't intentionally carry that sticker around with me. Like most car clutter, it was just there in the pile of random things that had accumulated over the years.\nThe CD's, sunglasses (my favorite pair) and other miscellaneous items were strewn and broken all over the car. I found pieces in every floorboard, both the driver's and the passenger's, both front and back seats. Yet here was this sticker, light as a feather, lying perfectly on the dash for me to find as I gathered my things and said goodbye to a car who was pretty much like family.\nMy mouth dropped open and a weight lifted off my chest. Then and there, I gave up the burden I'd been carrying around.\nYou see, I don't believe in coincidences. And though the police officer at the accident scene told me how lucky we all were to walk away, for the control freak inside of me, I still needed closure. I fully believed them, knew I'd been lucky, but I still needed something else. Part of me needed to know that I was going to be okay, that I would get past this. And just as reality around me crumbled, this tiny little significant thing was what I needed to be reminded of.\nTrust Love's Heart.\nI knew where it came from and what it meant to me. Only me. It might not make sense to anyone else and that's okay. For me, just seeing it there on my dash was a sign that it was time to heal, it was time to move on, to be okay.\nNow this sticker rides around in my new car with me as a constant reminder that we're only truly alone if we choose to be. And not just in a religious way either. We're surrounded by loved ones, but it's our choice whether or not we let them in, whether we choose to be loved or to love in return.\nLove is always the path to healing.\nDL Hammons September 26, 2011 at 7:47 PM\nIn my car it would have been a $5 off your next Dominos Pizza order!\nBut I do LOVE pizza! :)\nMary Aalgaard, Play off the Page September 27, 2011 at 8:58 AM\nWhat a great message. We can choose to feel the love that is all around us, then we won't feel so all alone.\nNice post... thx very much for sharing it.\nI hope you carry this with you from now on.\nStacy McKitrick September 28, 2011 at 2:13 PM\nIt is amazing how the little things can make all the difference. I'm glad you found something that helped you along.\nI've given you a blog award (unrelated to this post, of course). Come on over and get it.\nstacysrantings.blogspot.com",

        "title": "House Buyers Hinderance - 6 Things to Avoid When Purchasing A Home - Land of TalkLand of Talk",
        "raw_content": "Buying a house is an exciting time for any person.\nSoon, a piece of land will belong to you and you can do what you want with it. You can live in the house already residing on this land, you can knock it down and build your own house, you can even rent it out and earn money on it. Unfortunately, sometimes people rush into house purchases without fully investigating the property first, and they can end up with houses that lose value instead of gaining it, which can result in huge losses on the part of the new homeowner.\nIt\u2019s enough to make anyone nervous about their purchasing of a house, and anything other than Brighton East real estate can be a gamble at the best of times. However, to make things a little easier, we have written up six things to avoid when purchasing a home to take some of the guesswork out for you.\nLow-Growth Suburbs\nLow-growth suburbs tend to be suburbs without things to draw people in, to make living there desirable. A suburb without a primary or secondary school, for instance, could be considered low-growth, because families make up a large portion of the housing market, and living near a school is important to parents. Avoiding buying in these areas means buying in areas that have a good chance of growth in market value, so you know that your house won\u2019t end up selling for less than you bought it for.\nQuestionable Surroundings\nThe immediate surroundings of your house can affect the reliability of it as a property, because things like old, unstable trees in the vicinity of a house, or clay foundations under the house can make the value drop, or endanger the residents of the house. Clay can hold volumes of water inside for many years, which can swell in heavy rainfall and warp doorways and support beams of the house.\nUnstable trees can drop in strong winds or extreme weather and take out whole rooms of a house, destroying belongings and lives in the process. These things are dangers, and they can\u2019t always be removed, so they\u2019re better avoided at all costs.\nSuspiciously Low Prices\nA house price is usually the maximum a person can get for a house, and not a dollar less, so when a house is suspiciously low in price, there has to be something causing that low price. Despite the hopes and dreams of some potential house-buyers, perfect houses are never cheap and never perfect.\nIf you can\u2019t find anything wrong yourself, bring in a series of tradesmen to evaluate the house in all aspects. This will cost a bit of money, but you\u2019ll either discover nothing wrong with the house and buy it for a suspiciously low price, saving hundreds of thousands in the process, or you\u2019ll discover what\u2019s wrong and avoid it altogether.\nOld houses are usually bad news.\nThis isn\u2019t always true one hundred percent of the time, but the older a house is, the longer the construction materials have had to become compromised, and the more likely an instability is. Have any building older than 20 years evaluated before buying.\nThis may seem like a minor thing to a potential homebuyer, but it becomes a major problem when you move into the house and realise that these are the people you are surrounded with for as many years as you both choose to live there. When buying a house, ask the potential neighbours about the neighborhood. Any truly awful neighbor should come up immediately.\nMan-Made Valleys\nThis is very important, because naturally occurring valleys with houses at the bottom are usually formed over millions of years into the perfect shapes for their purposes, but man made valleys are not, and so many of them experience serious flooding issues. A man-made valley can mean the end of your floors and your gardens after a torrential downpour, and once the word is out that your valley floods your house prices will go down, meaning a monetary loss.\nWith these things in mind, you can be safe in buying your home and living long and happy lives there.\nMuddled Management \u2013 5 Tips For Getting Your Project Back on Track\nAn Exercise in Entertainment \u2013 5 Fun Tips for Staying Fit This Winter",

        "title": "The Priorities of a Sports Club Owner - Land of TalkLand of Talk",
        "raw_content": "The Priorities of a Sports Club Owner\nIf you were to ask a sports fan what the priority for their team was, you would likely get a very simple, and swift, response. Sports fans want to see their team win games! That means a fan wants to see a successful side on the pitch or playing field. This may mean winning trophies and challenging for honors, but every team has their level or an idea of success. A lot of clubs would say that finishing in mid-table was a success, so there is a sliding scale of what constitutes a triumph for every team, but ultimately, fans just want their team to win games.\nYou may think that a sports club owner would have the same aim because after all if the fans are happy, it is likely that they will come through the turnstiles and spend money. However, it is not always as straightforward as this, and the owner of a sports club who has a significant stake in a club may find that their main goal is based on the financial achievements of the club.\nThe demands of sports club owners are often different from the desires of the fan base\nSome clubs owners are more focused on financial stability and providing a good return for shareholders, with a good example of this being found in UK soccer. You only have to look at the criticism aimed at Arsenal, a team where Stanley Kroenke is the largest shareholder, which has been accused of aiming for financial returns as opposed to silverware. Arsene Wenger has delivered a few FA Cups in recent seasons, but fans have been frustrated by their inability to challenge for the title. Kroenke also owns the Denver Nuggets in the NBA, another team who have been happy to be part of the league without really pushing for the Playoffs in recent seasons. In this regard, Kroenke appears to prioritize stability and steady returns rather than on-field glory.\nWhen there is a need to balance the books and a determination to achieve great success on spreadsheets, on-field success can be limited. It may be that one key signing could make all the difference for a club, but if that player doesn\u2019t offer the potential of a future sell-on profit or would cost too much in wages, a club may decide against making that investment. That means the financial future of the club isn\u2019t placed at risk but equally, this may damage the mood of the fans, which could ultimately see attendances fall or merchandise sales dip.\nPragmatism often halts progress and success in sport\nSports club owners who are looking at the club from a business perspective will often find that their pragmatism holds the club back. Sport is a business, it is big business these days, but on the field, success can be difficult to achieve through a pragmatic business approach. That often means fans dislike many sports club owners, even though the owner may have invested a lot of their own time and money into the case.\nThis isn\u2019t always the case though; sometimes there are owners who run the club as a passion project. One of the most famous examples can be seen in the NFL and the New England Patriots. Robert Kraft supported the team since an early age and has had a season ticket since 1971. He has admitted that his passion and love for the club has seen him break his financial rules, but the fans have responded. The Patriots can be relied on to play in sold-out stadiums, and with Super Bowl success in 2014 and 2016, these fans have been rewarded.\nA similar story can be found in European soccer with Vangelis Marinakis, who was a huge Olympiacos FC fan long before he took over the club. His desire to see his team succeed on the pitch has been rewarded with seven consecutive league titles since the 2010/11 season and a handful of domestic cup triumphs. The club has also been a regular part of the Champions League, which means that Olympiacos fans have been delighted with their owner. It is impossible to please all of the fans all of the time but if you have a successful team on the pitch; most owners will find that they are held in high regard.\nMost potential sports club owners know that there is a great likelihood they aren\u2019t going to make a strong financial return when owning a club. In an ideal world, building a successful team would lead to a financial return, however, with every team looking to win games and trophies, there is only so much money and silverware to go around. That eventually leads to many sports club owners placing financial stability and minimizing their potential losses as the top priorities during their reign.\nclub ownership sports sports clubs sports owners\nFuture Money Trends You Need To Know About",

        "title": "How to Get Website Ready for Mobile-First Indexing | Little Big Design",
        "raw_content": "You probably already know that Google uses a bot to crawl your website as if they were a real visitor. This process is called indexing and is how they gather knowledge to rank your website. At the moment, Google surfs your site as a desktop user. However, they are currently working on a bot that will surf your site as a mobile user instead. What this means is that Google search engine results will soon rank websites based on the mobile version. To help you get website ready, we\u2019ve taken a look at mobile-first indexing and what it means for your website.\nThe main reason Google is switching to a mobile-first index is that, nowadays, more people use mobile devices than desktop. Therefore, it makes perfect sense that Google\u2019s bot should crawl pages as a mobile user. If you do not have a responsive website, don\u2019t worry. The Google bot will still crawl the desktop version of your website, but it will use a mobile user agent. This news means that your site will still be indexed. Nevertheless, if you want to take full advantage of mobile-first indexing then format your website to suit any device type.\nWith desktop websites, content hidden in tabs, accordions, expandable boxes and so on are not weighted as high. However, when it comes to mobile, content like this will be given full weight. The reason for this is that if your site format is hostile to mobile users, then you will lose ranking. Therefore, these techniques are utilised for a better user experience on mobile. Having said that, if you know the mobile version of your website has less content than the desktop version, look to add in those missing details. Ultimately, to gain the best search engine optimisation (SEO) for your site, start with optimising it for a mobile audience.\nGoogle Search Console is a great tool to help you seek out pages that have smartphone crawl errors or mobile usability issues. Utilising this information, you can clear up problems and improve the user experience on your website. Google also has a Mobile-Friendly Test that tells you whether or not a specific page is mobile-friendly. This test is great if you do not have the time to conduct a site-wide check. Google has yet to announce when the mobile-first indexing will be released. Therefore, use the time and tools available to make sure your website is ready to go.\nGoogle already counts page speed when ranking a page, and this will be just as important with mobile-first indexing. To check if this is an issue for your mobile site, test your site in Google\u2019s PageSpeed Insights Tool. If your site is not loading in around three seconds, look into the reasons why. PageSpeed Insights will provide a report with recommendations on how to resolve any issues. These issues can often be fixed by doing things like compressing image size and so on. Addressing these issues is important because people have come to expect web pages to load quickly. Consequently, they will likely leave a page if it takes too long to load.\nMobile indexing is going to change the way Google ranks sites significantly. To ensure you are not negatively impacted, make sure the user experience of your website is similar across all platforms. Because there\u2019s no set date for the rollout of indexing yet, you still have time to get your website ready. Nonetheless, since there is so much traffic through mobile platforms, get on the bandwagon sooner rather than later.",

        "raw_content": "Homepage / About diabetes / Diagnosis of diabetes\nDiabetes is diagnosed by measuring the amount of glucose in a blood sample. The test is usually performed after an overnight fast. If the glucose level is above 7 mmol/litre on a fasting glucose test, diabetes is diagnosed.\nIf the results of this initial test are not clear, a second test called an oral glucose tolerance test may be used. This test measures the amount of glucose in the blood before and after a glucose drink has been given. If the glucose level is equal to or greater than 11.1 mmol/litre two hours after the drink, diabetes is diagnosed.\nThe type of diabetes (whether type 1, type 2 or gestational) will normally be apparent from signs and symptoms that are present at the time of diagnosis, and from the person\u2019s age \u2013 type 1 diabetes is associated with younger age and type 2 with older age.\nType 1 diabetes typically occurs with a pattern of symptoms that develop rapidly, and may be accompanied by unexpected weight loss. The presence of a substance called ketones in the urine is another characteristic feature of type 1 diabetes \u2013 ketones are unlikely to be found in type 2 diabetes. In some cases, a test for antibodies to pancreatic cells may be done to distinguish type 1 diabetes from type 2.\nPeople with type 2 diabetes tend to develop symptoms more slowly. They are likely to be overweight or to have some other sign of the metabolic syndrome, a medical condition associated with type 2 diabetes. Other signs of the metabolic syndrome are an increased waistline, high blood pressure, low levels of HDL cholesterol (a type of cholesterol that protects against heart disease) and high levels of triglycerides, another type of fat that is found in the bloodstream.\nDiabetes that is diagnosed for the first time in a woman who is pregnant is, by definition, gestational diabetes.\nThe raised glucose levels that characterise diabetes are caused by a shortage of insulin, or by the body failing to respond to insulin normally.\nMore information about taking steps to control diabetes, so that its harmful effects are reduced.",

Needless to say that I was rather enthusiastic about the new album, \u2018Bannerless\u2019, which will arrive mid-April.\nIn many way \u2018Bannerless\u2019 is a logical continuation of its predecessors, but on the other side also a bit different. The gentlemen have not deviated from their old-fashioned thrash roots. However, they have \"limited\" themselves less. The mid-tempo and the groove that they showed on the previous record, \u2019Last\u2019, has been expanded here. In addition, we often have influences from the punk corner, and the emphasis is slightly more on a darker and more technical approach. All of this has ensured that the whole sounds more versatile, but in contrast to 'Last' that has been at the expense of the impact. Don\u2019t get me wrong, because the gentlemen do regularly come up with cool and catchy riffs and the overall aggression remains intact at all times, but unlike the previous albums, I am not blown away from start to finish. Because of the lingering, dark and technical nature that the majority of the material has 'Bannerless' is harder to digest and it all sounds a bit too lengthy, and therefore can\u2019t keep you focused. Unfortunately that doesn\u2019t change after several listens, and therefore this album is less appealing to me than its predecessors. That does not mean that 'Bannerless' is a bad album, it\u2019s just that the strength of this band lies within a faster and more straightforward approach, which I often miss here. All in all a very respectable album that fans of technical, heavy and dark thrash should give a chance.",

        "raw_content": "Andy and the military.\nSpecific details have been changed in this story for obvious reasons.\nAndy (not his real name) was the sort of person who had been keen on the military from his early high school days. He had been in the school cadets and then joined the Army Reserve on leaving high school and whilst waiting for the next intake.\nWhilst in the Reserves, he and others were offered the chance to do a paratroop course and had a few weeks to decide whether to put their names down or not. They duly decided to do so and were given a course allocation, which was then cancelled a week before it was due to take place and was not subsequently re-offered.\nThey were rather disillusioned as they had psyched themselves up for what is to most people a rather daunting adventure.\nSubsequently he achieved his life goal and was accepted into the Australian Army. He did his recruit training and his friends in his home town received graduation photos in due course. These are not included with this article as they readily identify people concerned.\nHe was then posted to Perth (W.A.) to a survey unit and loved it. Revelling in army life and all things army.\nWhen the time came around for his first major leave he applied and was approved for a specific time period.\nWith this approval in hand he then organised with some mates, booked and advance paid for his first overseas holiday. An all inclusive package centred on Bali in Indonesia and its surrounding attractions. His superiors were aware of what he was planning.\n3 weeks before he was due to leave he was told he was being sent to Canberra (on the other side of Australia) for 2 weeks on loan to help clear a 6 month backlog of work, this posting came into effect 1 week before his holiday. He reminded his superiors of his holiday and his inability to change the date or get a refund. He was told to follow orders and that the posting was of an \"urgent operational requirement\" (which meant he really had no grounds to protest as there is a clause giving the military the right to cancel leave etc). He told me about this and I told him to complain, he said there was no point due to the above and also the fact that it was his C.O. who had cut the orders. \"Go over his head\", I was told this was a quick way to misery and that I didn't understand how the military worked.\nUpon arrival in Canberra he reported and was met with a blank look. The C.O. there stated there was no backlog of work and he hadn't asked for anyone and had no idea why Andy was sent. A check back into the system just drew blanks and in the end it was decided that he would have to comply and stay for the 2 weeks.\nAfter much searching they found some work for him to do, which took him 2 hours. After that he had nothing so eventually started helping others do their work, but this created the problem that they soon ran out of work too.\nUpon returning to his regular posting he had one object in mind - to leave the military as soon as his enlistment period expired.\nHow to treat a person like cannon fodder!\nAndy went to work in the mechanical field and within a couple of years owned his own business and was an employer.\nMakes you wonder what he could have contributed to to this country as a member of our armed forces and what level he could have attained had he been treated decently, doesn't it?",

        "raw_content": "Web Editorial--March 2006\nUncovering Men's Lives\nin the Shadow of Brokeback Mountain\nFor a society long noted for its simplistic characterizations of men, the film Brokeback Mountain may mark the beginning of a new awareness about the depth and complexity of men's emotional lives. This stirring story of love unfulfilled, tenderly evoking Ennis Del Mar's and Jack Twist's relationship over a 20-year span is so artfully layered that it cannot be dismissed simply as a story about \"gay cowboys.\" Ennis and Jack are not so easily pigeonholed. Nor are the rest of us. Characterizations of any man as simply \"the silent type,\" \"tough guy,\" or \"emotionally unavailable\" are too shortsighted.\nMen's yearning to connect, to not feel alone, to be visible for all of who we are, too long has been obscured by a guise of inscrutability, stoicism, isolation. Sadly, among those who have perpetuated that myth the longest are men ourselves, and often with the loudest voice. What's behind our actions? Fear. Fear of being seen as vulnerable. Fear of being seen as weak. Fear of being seen as overwhelmed by the curves life throws us.\nIf we choose to listen to its message, Brokeback Mountain will likely be remembered as a cultural milestone, a major work of art that triggered a shift in consciousness, the moment when countless men began lifting off our shoulders the burdens conventional masculinity would have us carry: being the sole breadwinner, the infallible family leader, the ready-for-action stud--tough, strong, and almost always silent. What viewers of Brokeback Mountain--as well as readers of the Annie Proulx short story the film is based on--are invited to come to terms with are fresh ideas about what it means to be a man. The Ennis and Jack of 1963 that America has been introduced to were men--western cowboys no less--much more complicated than the Marlboro man stereotype many expected to meet. They were tough and tender, capable and caring, closed-mouthed and open-hearted.\nEnnis, in many ways, really is Everyman. Just as he had to come to grips with all of who he was--well beyond questions about his sexual identity--like him, all men have to try and understand our own interior lives. For contemporary men, the inner struggle Ennis waged was emblematic of our own yearning for wholeness. While he struggled to reconcile powerful feelings of love for and love from Jack, like him, most men--straight, bi, gay or questioning--struggle with an equally powerful old-style masculinity that tries to hold us in its grip.\nIt's true that while not all men are romantically attracted to other men, not all men are uncomfortable being close with each other. Sadly, though, we have been encouraged to keep our emotional distance from other men by a society that relentlessly inflicts on us a virulent form of homophobia. It is that fear and devaluing of men's loving connection with other men that, for most of us, remains the primary impediment to our feeling safe enough to develop intimate, long-term friendships with one another.\nLike many of us, Ennis and Jack struggled with their identities as men, including as husbands and fathers. But through their struggle, or in spite of it, they revealed a multi-faceted, textured, loving connection, one that exposed the big lie that would have men expressing a very limited range of emotional literacy.\nJust as the institution of heterosexual marriage has not eroded in the nearly two years since Massachusetts became the first state in the nation to declare all adults were free to marry, society's definition of \"real manhood\" will not unravel if we allow the Jacks and Ennises of today inside the tent of contemporary masculinity. All we have to lose is our fear of growing close with our brothers.\nRob Okun is executive director of the Men's Resource Center for Change. He can be reached at [email protected].",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Juan Cuba | November 15, 2016\nLast night, I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country. I hope that he will be a successful president for all Americans. This is not the outcome we wanted or we worked so hard for and I'm sorry that we did not win this election for the values we share and the vision we hold for our country.\nI know how disappointed you feel because I feel it too, and so do tens of millions of Americans who invested their hopes and dreams in this effort. This is painful and it will be for a long time, but I want you to remember this. Our campaign was never about one person or even one election, it was about the country we love and about building an America that's hopeful, inclusive and big-hearted.\nNow -- and let me add, our constitutional democracy demands our participation, not just every four years but all the time. So let's do all we can to keep advancing the causes and values we all hold dear; making our economy work for everyone not just those at the top, protecting our country and protecting our planet and breaking down all the barriers that hold any American back from achieving their dreams.\nCLINTON: We've spent a year and a half bringing together millions of people from every corner of our country to say with one voice that we believe that the American dream is big enough for everyone -- for people of all races and religions, for men and women, for immigrants, for LGBT people, and people with disabilities. For everyone.\nI am so grateful to stand with all of you. I want to thank Tim Kaine and Anne Holton for being our partners on this journey.\nIt has been a joy getting to know them better, and it gives me great hope and comfort to know that Tim will remain on the front lines of our democracy representing Virginia in the Senate.\nWe -- we thank you for your graceful, determined leadership that has meant so much to so many Americans and people across the world.\nAnd to Bill and Chelsea, Mark, Charlotte, Aidan, our brothers and our entire family, my love for you means more than I can ever express. You crisscrossed this country on our behalf and lifted me up when I needed it most -- even four-month-old Aidan who traveled with his mom.\nAnd to the millions of volunteers, community leaders, activists and union organizers who knocked on doors, talked to neighbors, posted on Facebook, even in secret, private Facebook sites...\n... I want everybody coming out from behind that and make sure your voices are heard going forward.\nAnd to the young people in particular, I hope you will hear this. I have, as Tim said, spent my entire adult life fighting for what I believe in. I've had successes and I've had setbacks. Sometimes, really painful ones. Many of you are at the beginning of your professional public and political careers. You will have successes and setbacks, too.\nThis loss hurts, but please never stop believing that fighting for what's right is worth it.\nCLINTON: It is -- it is worth it.\nAnd so we need -- we need you to keep up these fights now and for the rest of your lives.\nNow, I -- I know -- I know we have still not shattered that highest and hardest glass ceiling, but some day someone will and hopefully sooner than we might think right now.\nAnd -- and to all the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams.\nBecause, you know -- you know, I believe we are stronger together and we will go forward together. And you should never, ever regret fighting for that. You know, scripture tells us, \"Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season, we shall reap if we do not lose heart.\"",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Food \u00bb Health \u00bb \"Dragon Fruit & Its Fire-Breathing Nutrients\"\nShe might not have been blessed with an enticing physical beauty that launches a thousand flirtatious glances, but irrespective of its bizarre scaly looks this fruit is undeniably in a league of its own in terms of nutritional value and perhaps appetency.\nDragon fruit is originally known as pitaya or pitahaya from its native soil in Central and South America where it grows abundantly. Its popularity has reached the other parts of the continents and is now cultivated and commercially produced in Asian countries like the Philippines and Thailand.\nHave you ever wondered why this fruit seemed to have a strong resemblance to that of the cactus plant? It is mainly because this fruit is a member of the cactaceae family most commonly in the genus Hylocereus. It is interesting to note that it blooms only during night time, which is the primary reason why it has earned its name as the \"Queen of the Night\". Rumor has it that this fruit has been created a thousand of years ago by the legendary fire-breathing dragons, hence it has been called as the \"Dragon Fruit\". It has been speculated that during the battle in the olden times when the mythological creature would breathe fire the very last thing to come out would be the fruit. The fruits were then collected after the dragons were slain and presented to the King as an emblem of victory.\nIt is also noteworthy to mention that this fruit is bestowed and highly packed with the vitamins and micronutrients which our body needs. Quoted below are the reported nutritional value and health benefits:\nThe bright pinkish purple colored varieties are rich in lycopene, a natural antioxidant which is good for the heart and effectively fights cancer.\nIt is packed with vitamin B1 (Thiamine), a vital human nutrient which aids the body in maintaining efficient nervous and cardiovascular functioning.\nIt contains sufficient amount of Riboflavin also known as vitamin B2, a micro-nutrient which plays a key role in energy metabolism.\nIt is armed with vitamin B3 or Niacin which helps in decreasing bad cholesterol levels.\nRecent research shows that it helps fight against asthma and cough.\nIt is also effective against high blood pressure.\nIt strengthens the body's immune system since it contains strong levels of vitamin C.\nFor those who have type 2 DM, it is said to be effective in lowering blood glucose levels.\nWith its regular consumption coupled with proper diet, it considerably reduces excess weight without compromising one's health.\nIt is a rich source of calcium and phosphorus excellent for your bones and teeth.\nThe anti-oxidants ingrained in its fruit help in preventing the formation of cancer-causing free radicals and other undesirable health detriments.\nDragon fruit wouldn't just be called a queen behind the shadows of the night without its sterling nutritional value. Definitely not just a mere creation of those mighty ferocious dragons of old without its impressive massive brute of essential micronutrients. Needless to say, this fruit best exemplifies a woman of substance. She may not have been richfully blessed with the standards of physical beauty, and yet when its fruit is regularly consumed it gradually endows one with the strength comparable to that of the mighty fire-breathing dragons and the vigor closely akin to the elite royalties.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Editorials \u00bb Why so many missing person cases are not prosecuted\nWhy so many missing person cases are not prosecuted\nThere are some updates on the Zinah Jennings case since I wrote this article in 2012. Amir\u2019s body has not been found at this writing.\n2016 \u2013 On Sept. 30, Jennings was released to the supervised re-entry program, according to the S.C. Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services. Jennings will remain under supervision until March 30, 2017.\nUpdate \u2013 Zinah Jennings was sentenced to 10 years in prison for unlawful conduct toward a child.\nToday, the attorney for Zinah Jennings, the mother who reported her 18-month-old son, Amir missing around Thanksgiving of last year, said that the judge should throw out an indictment against Zinah.\n\u201cYou can\u2019t weigh the rights of a defendant against the rights of a missing child,\u201d Attorney Hemphill Pride said.\nTo bring you up to date on this case, authorities didn\u2019t know little Amir was missing until the police interviewed Zinah after a car wreck on Christmas Eve. After changing her story several times she said her son was with relatives, and to this day Amir has never been found, although authorities have done everything to find him.\nPolice indicted Zinah last month for unlawful conduct toward a child, but Pride argues there isn\u2019t poof that she harmed Amir.\nI know many of you are yelling at your computer screen right now, and think that Zinah should be locked up for ever. But, like it or not Pride does have a point. Zinah said that Amir is safe. How do we know he isn\u2019t?\nBy the way, Zinah\u2019s statement should sound familiar, as John Skelton, who is also currently in jail, is saying the same thing about his three missing sons, that they are safe, but he won\u2019t divulge where they are.\nOver the several years I have been reporting on missing person, it is as though everyone that has \u201cdone away\u201d with another person, knows now that all they have to do is hide the body and they will get away with it.\nIt is frustratingly true. Without a body it is extremely hard to prosecute someone, and with the rise of computers, social networking, and shows like Nancy Grace, everyone knows if you hide a body, your chances of getting away with it are pretty high.\n\u201cThe law says you must pass the corpus delecti rule, which refers to a body of crime,\u201d says Michigan prosecutor Stuart Fenton. \u201cNormally, you have a body and a coroner who will tell you the cause of death. With a missing body, you don\u2019t have that. You have to prove by circumstantial evidence that there was a death and the death occurred by criminal means. A lot of prosecutors are afraid of taking on these cases because of these obstacles.\u201d\nBecause there is no body, questions that normally would be uncontested, like the fact the person is really dead, the place of death, and the cause of death, just becomes fuel for the defense. Our judicial system is set up so that any piece of evidence presented by the prosecution can become the defense target for reasonable doubt.\nFor a killer this works out pretty well.\nEven with failed polygraphs and blood-stained rugs, evidence, excuse me, circumstantial evidence can be explained away, and even if the police were able to bring a person to trial on circumstantial evidence, there is still the hurdle of reasonable doubt during the trial.\nNo one knows this more than the police and there are many cases where they try to get around this major obstacle by putting who they believe is responsible for someones death in jail for another charge, like what is going on with Zinah. (Remember Al Capone).\nFor example,Clay Waller, the husband of missing Jacque Waller was arrested for making Internet threats against Jacque Waller\u2019s sister, who has custody of the couple\u2019s triplets, in the days following her disappearance.\nBut there are those that believe that circumstantial cases can be stronger than direct evidence cases.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have all the baggage that may come if police are not as careful as they should be at the scene of a crime,\u201d said Joshua Marquis to ABC News.\n\u201cWith some elements of a circumstantial case, you can\u2019t change it. You can\u2019t lie about it. You can\u2019t misidentify fingerprints; you can\u2019t lie about DNA,\u201d said Richard Holmes.\nEven though circumstantial evidence is a hindrance for police, and for some attorney\u2019s, it is not for the general public.\nFor example, the Susan Powell case, there was no body, but that didn\u2019t mean that there wasn\u2019t a lot of pressure on Josh Powell from public scrutiny. In part, what may have been exactly what put him over the edge.\nBaby Lisa Irwin\u2019s mother Deborah, has been found guilty by the public, mostly by women who plain didn\u2019t like Deborah\u2019s demeanor. The internet was afire with personal theories on what she did to her baby and personal attacks on what they would like to do to her.\nFor some, social interaction should not be bothered with something as binding as circumstantial evidence. These \u201cgroups\u201d can make it nearly impossible for the person they have zeroed in on to be able to live a normal life again.\nOnce you delve deeper into cases, though the more you begin to understand it isn\u2019t as easy as grabbing someone and locking them up in jail because that \u201cseem\u201d guilty.\nIn the case of missing Azaria Chamberlain, whose mother, Lindy, was convicted for killing her even though she claimed, \u201cA dingo took my baby.\u201d It wasn\u2019t till a piece of the baby\u2019s clothing was found near a dingo den in 2011, that Lindy was released from prison. The woman spent many years in prison for something she didn\u2019t do, even though, there are still people out there that strongly believe she is responsible for her child\u2019s disappearance and probably death.\nAlthough the judicial system has said she is not guilty, she will always be labored with finger pointing. I doubt it is anymore painful to her than the guilt she feels over the loss of her baby to a wild animal.\nAnd I suppose that is the jest of it all. Judicial systems, evidence, social media can all present themselves as the last word on someone\u2019s guiltiness, but it is only the guilty person that really knows the truth and will live the rest of their life persecuted by their conscience\u2026.if they have one.\nOur judicial system is doing the best it can. And I think it\u2019s pretty darn good.\nOne thought on \u201cWhy so many missing person cases are not prosecuted\u201d\nfirstlilwanderer says:\nHaving worked in law enforcement and the courts for six years, I am sorry to say you are being\nnaive in assuming law enforcement and the judicial system is doing the best they can.",

The latest offering is the visual for steamy ballad \"Versace on the Floor\" \u2014 the one that sounds a lot like Michael Jackson's \"She's Out of My Life\" \u2014 and it features Zendaya in a starring role as Mars' neighbor.\nAs he wears yet another outstanding shirt that you can't see all that well because he's sitting behind a piano in darkened room, Zendaya is just one room away listening intently, singing along, and moving her body to the music. At one point, Mars seemingly unzips her dress using nothing but the power of sexy piano chords and his silken voice. Impressive.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FyjEnoIgTM\nI won't spoil the ending of this video, but I'll say it does honor the song's title in a very specific way. Check it out above. And don't forget to tune into the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, August 27 at 8 p.m. ET/PT to see if Mars is (finally) honored for putting his amazing shirt collection to good use.",

'Cuz it was too darned cold to leave the house.\nAccording to every weather forecaster on the planet, the sub-freezing weather is here to stay for the next seven to ten days. Here's The Ten-Day Forecast.\nBut there was also some good weather news on Friday. Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow in Pennsylvania.\nAccording to traditional weather lore, if a groundhog named Punxsutawney Phil, living in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, emerges from his burrow on the morning of February 2nd and fails to see its shadow (because the weather is cloudy), Spring is just around the corner.\nIf Phil sees its shadow because the weather is bright and clear, furry Phil supposedly is frightened and runs back into its hole, and Winter will continue for six more weeks.\nI've never been very fond of Punxsutawney Phil. (Read my column from 2005).\nIt's somewhat unusual for Phil not to see his shadow. This is the first time since 1999 that Phil has not seen his shadow. And, it's only the 15th time in all of history that Phil has predicted an early end to Winter.\nBy the way, six weeks = Friday March 16th, 2007. This bodes well for the St. Patrick's Day Parade which is scheduled for Sunday March 18th.\nSince we're going to a few bad days of cold and wind chill, I compiled a list of common \"Winter Warning\" type words that you should probably get familiar with.\nAfter all, it's just a few weeks to March 1st. And you know what they always say: \"In like a Lion . . . Out like a Lamb.\"\nHere's the word list!\nWinter Storm Watch - Hazardous winter weather conditions including significant accumulations of snow and/or freezing rain and/or sleet are possible generally within 36 hours. These watches are issued by the Weather Service Forecast Office.\nWinter Storm Warning - Hazardous winter weather conditions that pose a threat to life and/or property are occurring, imminent, or highly likely. The generic term, winter storm warning, is used for a combination of two or more of the following winter weather events; heavy snow, freezing rain, sleet and strong winds.\nBlizzard Watch - Sustained winds or frequent gusts of 35 mph (56 km/h) or greater, considerable falling and/or blowing snow reducing visibility frequently to 1/4 mile (0.4 km) or less for a period of three hours or more are possible generally within the next 36 hours.\nThe following event-specific warnings are issued for a single weather hazard:\nBlizzard Warning - Sustained winds or frequent gusts of 35 mph (56 km/h) or greater, considerable falling and/or blowing snow reducing visibility frequently to 1/4 mile (0.4 km) or less for a period of three hours or more. There are no temperature criteria in the definition of a blizzard but freezing temperatures and 35 mph winds will create sub-zero wind chills.\nHeavy Snow Warning - Heavy snowfall amounts are imminent and the criteria for amounts varies significantly over different county warning areas.\nLake Effect Snow Warning - Heavy lake-effect snowfall amounts of generally 6 inches in 12 hours or less or 8 inches in 24 hours or less are imminent or highly likely. Lake-effect snow squalls can significantly reduce visibilities with little notice.\nIce Storm Warning - Heavy ice accumulations are imminent and the criteria for amounts varies over different county warning areas. Accumulations range from 1/4 to 1/2 inch or more of freezing rain. In Canada, these are known as Freezing Rain Warnings.\nSleet Warning - Heavy sleet accumulations of 2 inches or more in 12 hours or less are imminent.\nWinter Weather Advisory - Hazardous winter weather conditions are occurring, imminent or likely. Conditions will cause a significant inconvenience and if caution is not exercised, and may result in a potential threat to life and/or property. The generic term, winter weather advisory, is used for a combination of two or more of the following events; snow, freezing rain or freezing drizzle, sleet, blowing snow.\nThe following event-specific advisories are issued for these single weather hazards:\nSnow Advisory - Moderate snowfall amounts are imminent and the criteria for amounts varies significantly over different county warning areas. They can range from as little as one inch in Florida to up to half a foot out West.\nFreezing Rain Advisory - A trace to 1/4 inch of freezing rain is expected is needed in any county warning area to prompt a freezing rain advisory.\nSnow and Blowing Snow Advisory - Sustained winds or frequent gusts of 25 to 35 mph (40 to 56 km/h) accompanied by falling and blowing snow, occasionally reducing visibility to 1/4 mile (0.4 km) or less. Blowing Snow Advisory - Widespread blowing snow with winds 25 to 35 mph (40 to 56 km/h), occasionally reducing visibility to 1/4 mile (400 m) or less.",

        "raw_content": "Asbestos is a mineral fiber. It was present in many products used in home construction, including acoustic ceilings.\nThe use of asbestos in ceilings was banned in 1977. If your home was built prior to 1977, there is a good chance that your ceilings contain asbestos.\nFollowing are the EPA guidelines for obtaining a sample and testing for asbestos.\nYou can\u2019t tell whether a material contains asbestos simply by looking at it, unless it is labeled. If in doubt, treat the material as if it contains asbestos or have it sampled and analyzed by a qualified professional. A professional should take samples for analysis, since a professional knows what to look for, and because there may be increased health risk if fibers are released. In fact, if done incorrectly, sampling can be more hazardous than leaving the material alone. Taking samples yourself is not recommended. If you nevertheless choose to take the samples yourself, take care not to release asbestos fibers into the air or onto yourself. Material that is in good condition and will not be disturbed (by remodeling, for example) should be left alone. Only material that is damaged or will be disturbed should be sampled. Anyone who samples asbestos-containing materials should have as much information as possible on the handling of asbestos before sampling, and at a minimum, should observe the following procedures:\n* Make sure no one else is in the room when sampling is done.\n* Wear disposable gloves or wash hands after sampling.\n* Shut down any heating or cooling systems to minimize the spread of any released fibers.\n* Do not disturb the material any more than is needed to take a small sample.\n* Place a plastic sheet on the floor below the area to be sampled.\n* Wet the material using a fine mist of water containing a few drops of detergent before taking the sample. The water/detergent mist will reduce the release of asbestos fibers.\n* Carefully cut a piece from the entire depth of the material using, for example, a small knife, corer, or other sharp object. Place the small piece into a clean container (for example, a 35 mm film canister, small glass or plastic vial, or high quality reseal able plastic bag).\n* Tightly seal the container after the sample is in it.\n* Carefully dispose of the plastic sheet. Use a damp paper towel to clean up any material on the outside of the container or around the area sampled. Dispose of asbestos materials according to state and local procedures.\n* Label the container with an identification number and clearly state when and where the sample was taken.\n* Patch the sampled area with the smallest possible piece of duct tape to prevent fiber release.\nThe above information was obtained from the Environmental Protection Agency\u2019s website. For more detailed information on Asbestos in Your Home go to www.epa.gov and search for asbestos.\nOnce you have the results of the asbestos testing you can determine whether you want to have your ceilings sealed and re-sprayed (thereby encapsulating asbestos fibers) or removed by a licensed abatement contractor.",

        "raw_content": "Schletter Group: 1-Megawatt Rooftop Project in Jordan Now On the Grid\nThe globally active manufacturer of solar mounting systems Schletter Group has concluded another rooftop project in Jordan. The installation on the roof of a steel processing plant in Amman generates up to 1,053 kWp of clean solar power.\n\u201cFor us, the Middle East is an important region that, thanks to our excellent ties to local project developers, we are already very well positioned in,\u201d Adnan Daqa said. He is the Schletter Group\u2019s representative in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), where the company is one of the major overseas suppliers of solar mounting systems. \u201cAn important factor in our success is also that our production strategy is not only focussed on quality, but most of all on cost-efficiency through quick and easy assembly,\u201d he pointed out.\nThe end customer of this project specifically asked for the PV panels to be attached directly to the sheet metal of the roof. For that reason, the 3,240 panels were mounted using the Schletter system SingleFix-Vario, which is designed to allow mounting the array directly to the cladding in case of self-supporting trapezoidal sheet metal roofs. This requires no additional support structures, which in turn significantly reduces construction time. There is also less physical load on the roof structure. Nevertheless, the system is highly robust: Laterally fastening the mounting system SingleFix to the raised bead of the trapezoidal metal roof cladding allows ideal spreading of the loads throughout the sheet metal. This prevents the roof from buckling or even tearing.\nThe project developer was Amman-based Al Hayakel Renewable Engergy Co. (Maani). The Schletter Group has been cooperating with this company for a number of years now, and has already realised projects with them on the order of more than 8,5 megawatts. Another joint 1.2-megawatt project outside of Jordan is already being planned and construction is due to start next January.",

Despite being the culmination of over five years of research and a journey stretching over nearly ten years, it has nearly killed me twice and I am not entirely sure if it is wise that I should keep tempting providence! Nevertheless, it is my hope and intent to keep releasing updated versions of these books as our knowledge improves \u2013 and you, dear reader, can contribute to future versions via the theoretical web portal at http://www.neocapitalism.org/.\nThese three books form a trilogy which result from my best attempt to answer three simple questions, with each book explaining the same message but in increasingly powerful ways:\ni. What is the simplest understanding of the Universe which applies to all parts, all scales, all timespans no matter how large or small at once simultaneously?\nii. What would that understanding mean for us?\niii. How might that be useful in deciding how to structure our society?\nThese might seem to be unusual questions to be asking in our modern age. If you\u2019re in the West, depending on your political persuasion, either the planet (and civilisation) is utterly doomed via a toxic combination of terrorism, oil shortages and global warming and shortly World War III will begin; or we are living in the most golden age ever experienced, with unprecedented freedom, wealth & mobility with general global agreement that some variant of European culture is the one to aspire toward. So how does such a philosophical approach help in the slightest?\nIt is true that Western European culture has become the undisputed dominant culture over every other on the planet. Most of the planet aspires to become more like us \u2013 speak like us, think like us, become their particular variant of us. Yet, while most of the planet tries to catch us the leaders, we the leaders seem to be feeling a bit ill. While our material economy continues to grow without limit, there seems to have set in a slight feeling of nausea which whilst imperceptible most of the time, rears its ugly head as our suicide rate climbs, our youth sinks ever lower in self-abasing and self-destructive acts and our natural environment declines[1].\nThis is not happening by accident. We are being given the signs that it is time to change. We don\u2019t have to \u2013 and if we fail to heed the signs now, many more opportunities will be provided for us to change direction. Nevertheless, the longer we wait, the louder the signs will become and the more upsetting the roar for change will become. One thing is for sure \u2013 we will change one way or another, the only question remaining is how much it will be under our own control.\nIt is my opinion, after answering those three questions above, that the fundamental solution to most of our current problems is speeding up growth. I don\u2019t assume this like many authors do \u2013 I spend sections I and II explaining in simple words how I understand how the Universe works i.e. I tell you my answer to question one above. I then go on to explain in section III in simple words my answer to question two \u2013 with examples from my personal experience as I think pertinent. If you agree with my answers, then increasing growth does become obvious, and thus I proceed to answering question three for the remainder of this book through the many chapters in section IV.\nThis book is all about Freeing Growth: at a personal, familial, societal, cultural, economic, religious AND scientific level \u2013 and in so doing, we free up overall growth. And I\u2019m going to be as specific as I can though most of the implementation detail will be left for Book Two \u2013 in particular, I have studiously avoided the use of mathematics in this volume which has imposed a general lack of detail, though much more so in some topics than others.\nThat sounds very ambitious, and indeed who am I to speak in any way authoritatively about any of these issues whatsoever? The answer is that I am a nobody, just a fresh graduate from St. Andrews University, and feel free to completely ignore me \u2013 indeed, I am entirely expecting that this book will be completely ignored. I don\u2019t mind this so much \u2013 I truly believe that writing this book, and its contents, is the right thing to do despite how futile or how much upset it might cause. Why I should have this strong belief I will come to later, probably in Book Three.\nWhat I propose are a series of very small changes \u2013 so small that everyday life would be entirely unaffected \u2013 but enacted across many different areas all at once, stretching from finance to infrastructure, through religion & education and beyond fuel & food. I freely admit that I am not an expert in most of those areas and I frequently contradict the opinions of the experts in their fields. However, I have something that they do not \u2013 I am trying to harmonise each discipline under one, simple, holistic framework and therefore I can see things which they cannot easily see. Equally, I am going to make a very large number of mistakes and miss highly important details because I simply do not know any better \u2013 hence why these books will be improved and republished over time.\nOne thing many people do not realise is that there is no one single true way of seeing anything in the world. You can believe anything you like so long as it does not contradict the evidence. This is not to say that there are not better ways of seeing the world than others \u2013 in fact, the history of the entire Universe is best seen as an ever increasingly powerful way of understanding the world and we are no exception. As a simple example, Newtonian mechanics (think billiard balls hitting one another) is a less powerful form of Relativistic mechanics (think space and time bending like a rubber sheet). For 99.9% of object movement which concerns us human beings, Newtonian mechanics is perfectly accurate and has the advantage of ease of calculation \u2013 yet, it is not as powerful as Relativistic mechanics which can accurately describe more phenomena more precisely.\nIf science isn\u2019t your thing, then here\u2019s another simple example: why do most people need several trial relationships before they are ready to get married? As a child, a person has a simplistic understanding of what it is to be in a couple which they mostly inherit from watching their parents. From the evidence that they have seen, this is usually pretty good (e.g. every child always has a list of things that they will never do to their own children when the time comes). The next stage comes as young teenagers become instinctually and culturally driven to get together and then most people modify their understanding of relationships to include more complex friendship elements. However, this understanding is usually still not powerful enough to make a relationship work, so it requires several practice runs before a person has a sufficiently powerful understanding to make a relationship last more than a few months. Indeed, many even require several marriages to work out all the kinks \u2013 most especially the one that the person you marry won\u2019t be the person you\u2019re married to after a few years.\nAt no stage was the person\u2019s understanding wrong \u2013 it was just the best that that person could achieve at the time. Much of the time, growth in power of understanding is limited by lack of evidence, practice and good sources of education \u2013 but a good indicator of sickness is when a person simply cannot \u2018compute\u2019 reality and ends up repeating a variant of the same mistakes repeatedly. This phenomenon, denial, is a major theme running throughout these three books and we will come back to it again and again because denial is at the core of limiting our growth. Some will surely say that this book is very right-wing: yet I did not start out this voyage on the political right, I came from the left to the right because enforcing better behaviour upon people does NOT make them into better people \u2013 it simply creates pseudo-psychopaths who pretend to be better people but are in denial as to who they are, what they are doing and why they are doing it.\nThe question of whether growth is good at all has been a major theme of \u2018climate change\u2019. There are very worrying signs that some intend to limit growth \u2018for the good of the planet\u2019 and it is my greatest hope that this book will do something to prevent that happening. Unlike most commentators on climate change, I have actually read though the IPCC[2] assessment reports (it was one of the subjects of my dissertation for Economics). As I show in Section I, the single most obvious feature of this planet \u2013 indeed, this Universe \u2013 is exponential growth or decline at every distance & timescale. To deliberately constrain that will be fatal and in the long run, it is a fool\u2019s errand anyway because one is opposing the full torrent of Nature\u2019s will. This is NOT to say that it remains \u2018business as usual\u2019 by any stretch and this is the reason why:\nBelieve it or not, our current economic system is extremely inefficient \u2013 even more inefficient than Communism was, and the conventional viewpoint that the Communist Economy collapsed through Economic inefficiency is quite wrong[3]. Believe it or not, our economic growth of the last sixty years of around 2-3% per annum is far too low and could be sustainably in double digits. In fact, it needs to be in double digits, because with the environmental degradation currently happening around us, we need to grow far faster than we have done \u2013 because if we don\u2019t, our civilisation will continue to collapse. This isn\u2019t a bad thing in the bigger picture \u2013 future civilisations will learn from our mistakes \u2013 but for us right here right now, it really is not preferable.\nBook One, this book, is the general lay person\u2019s introduction to my proposals and I have deliberately referenced less than half a dozen sources because I don\u2019t want you, the reader, to blindly accept a single word that I say. In fact, as shown later in this book, you\u2019re going to have to take a choice of faith in what I say or not. It is intended for the time pressed person who needs a quick overview of the approach without needing the details and to that end, it contains no reference to mathematics, paradox logic or computer models wherever possible.\nBook Two however goes in the opposite direction. It is specifically written from first principles with all the specific technical detail required to understand the proposed changes \u2013 somewhat like Roger Penrose\u2019s The Road to Reality which sets out, from first principles, our entire current knowledge of how the Universe functions. I fully expect that even those versed in the same fields will disagree in the strongest possible terms with my approach and fundamentally disagree with the travesties I perform to their specialisms. However, it is my aim that there is not a single technical mistake in Book Two and so I will be paying a cash bounty out of my own pocket to every person who first identifies a technical mistake on the book\u2019s website, http://www.freeinggrowth.org/.\nBook Three is the most difficult of the three books \u2013 it is basically a collection of notes & stories about Books One and Two, but done in a way to evoke the deeper meanings. It details the history of where these books came from, it tries to use creative writing to illustrate concepts which neither English nor Mathematics can currently represent, and it also speculates quite wildly on what in my opinion should happen after the first growth freeing steps as outlined by this book are implemented. It is both the ex ante and ex post of the core \u2013 and because of that, is vastly more important though I doubt most will see (or understand) that for now or maybe ever.\nThere are some points I should make before we begin because they profoundly affect the design choices I have made. The first point is that I have kept all my proposed changes compatible with existing systems for two reasons: (i) some regions may adopt these changes before others, and trade must not be interrupted and (ii) I want the least possible change to everyday life such that most people won\u2019t even notice much has changed, just that things are now getting much better for some reason. This has made my proposals more complicated than they need have been were one willing to tear everything down and start from scratch \u2013 but well, you can say that about everything in life.\nThe second point is that as many of the proposals as possible have been designed to be representable within a computer model. As a society, we nowadays do very little without first modelling it on a computer and I find that a good thing \u2013 even if there are many things which simply cannot be represented with numbers ever. Sadly, most of our population still assumes that numbers are \u2018hard\u2019 (independent of their context) and contain far more absolute truth than they really do.\nThe third point is that these proposals are deliberately intended to keep the West as the undisputed preeminent cultural, economic and military power on this planet for the foreseeable future. A lot of people are going to have a problem with that \u2013 well tough, because I am first & foremost a patriot, and secondly a chaotic system is at its most stable when there is one, undisputed one tonne gorilla of whom everyone is afraid. However, beyond my personal preferences, there is the simple moral matter that we in the West have led the planet to this point \u2013 and we have a moral duty & obligation under the eyes of God to clean up our mess and lead our planet into a new and better future.\nThis requires[4] a more equitable distribution of wealth but it does not require a more equitable distribution of power \u2013 in fact, it requires that power be concentrated back with the West as it has dissipated somewhat since the end of the Cold War. Most in this world are not fit to lead and it would be dangerous to allow them out of some misplaced desire for \u2018balance\u2019. No, to lead well is extremely hard and can only be competently performed by a very exceptional kind of person working via a very exceptional kind of society \u2013 and it is only right that such a difficult duty should be sparingly awarded with ample benefits repaid. In particular, too much of our profits are lost to unproductive & wasteful activity in the West: I spend considerable time in Section IV outlining what I consider the most foolish and furthermore how to fix them.\nWhat it certainly does NOT mean is that the West will callously discriminate against others it views as inferior \u2013 as it has too often done in the past e.g. the forced \u2018Westernisation\u2019 of aboriginal children which only ended in most Western countries in the 1990s. To be a true leader, one must set and follow a high example and encourage others to aspire higher \u2013 and yes, should some become dangerous to themselves and others, severe punishment may need to be applied when all else has failed (most people will be appalled with my proposals for penal reform). I know this sounds paternalistic and encompassing the worst that the West has already done to the World \u2013 but that viewpoint in itself is very flawed: I strongly believe that we have done much more good than bad, and our historical record even by those punished by us tends to show that overall in the long run.\nIt also goes without saying that these books have been written for a Western mentality and its prescriptions to free growth are designed for Western culture and structures (and I include western Russia as well as eastern European countries). Were I writing this for Eastern or Middle Eastern cultures, I would not only write in a very different style, but also propose quite different proposals. Nevertheless, there is something in here for every culture of this planet \u2013 I have taken account, where possible, of Islamic and Far Eastern sensibilities & especially their often insightful criticisms of the West.\nThe fourth point is that these proposals are deliberately intended to make a very great deal of profit for those entrepreneurs who deserve it most. Again, a lot of people are going to have a problem with that \u2013 but I ask you, is their problem with success yielding profit or is it with a perception that those who yield most profit didn\u2019t earn it? The former was a tradition of socialist thinking and thankfully is now mostly extinct. The latter however I do have much sympathy with because it\u2019s actually very true \u2013 I, like any right thinking person, find it utterly abhorrent how easy it is to make huge profits from either being incompetent or screwing the world over (or worse, both) and these proposals have been very deliberately designed to ensure that very large profits can only arise from benefiting the Universe. Note however that what is best for the Universe is usually, but not always, what is best for planet Earth and equally, what is best for planet Earth is usually, but not always, what is best for human beings. The system of Economics that I propose can be just as heartless as our current one \u2013 the difference is that this system has valuing the greater good built into its core, whereas the current system is really one of how best to extract wealth into the hands of the richest which is a legacy inherited from the West\u2019s colonial days.\nThis is not to say that this new system does not make mistakes. It can cause the starvation of millions of people just like the current one. It can cause war, and genocide. It is particularly weaker on social control than our current one and far more prone to social fractionalisation \u2013 but it is hoped that the proposed structures will divert all this energy into constructive rather than destructive growth, though I entirely expect some of the latter as it is only natural.\nMost important of all is that my proposals are 100% voluntary \u2013 no one gets forced to do anything at all at any stage (though I accept that anyone implementing these proposals is likely to impose rather than offer). It also gives a FAR greater voice to normal people \u2013 but it makes it very clear that you have no right to a voice unless you earn it through doing. I have extremely little time for people who sit and moan and bitch about the world and yet are willing to do nothing themselves personally to set it right. Such malcontents simply breed negativity and retard growth in others \u2013 and these proposals neuter the influence of these people to the greatest possible extent.\nGrowth is change, and with change there are always winners and losers. Prolonged Economic growth of high single digits is already considered a severe stress on a country \u2013 witness the social cracks in Ireland (where I was born and grew up) which has transformed itself over the last twenty years from one of the poorest in the OECD[5] into the fifth richest in material wealth. I know from being Irish just what I am asking when I propose sustained double digit economic growth: societies are torn apart from within and it hurts, it really hurts. But then growth is always painful, and as I know from bitter personal experience, the more growth one does in less time, the more painful it is.\nNevertheless, this needs to be done and the rewards, in the long term, are most certainly worth it. And so I propose one way of how. I hope you enjoy reading about it!\n[1] Let me be extremely clear that I do NOT mean global warming here nor climate change. I\u2019ll go into far more detail later on in this book.\n[2] Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. This is a United Nations panel which collates a \u2018consensus\u2019 opinion on climate change science from peer reviewed academic sources.\n[3] It actually collapsed because it succeeded in preventing exponential growth. The same fate awaits us if we try it.\n[4] Yes I did say \u2018requires\u2019. As shown later in this book, and proven in Book Two, it is a hard limit of thermodynamics (i.e. that thing from Physics). To be clear, I mean across societies, not across cultures: there can be massive local disparities so long as the disparities are low on a wider scheme of things.\n[5] Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

Through a generous donation of $50,000 from Dr. Michael Gervers, Professor of History, University of Toronto, and through a generous matching donation of $50,000 from the University of Toronto, and through a matching donation of another$50,000, which we, as a community, must raise, we are poised to establish a foundation to create an Ethiopian Studies program at the University of Toronto.\nThe Toronto-born singer, who is the son of Ethiopian immigrants, surprised the foundation by donating the full amount to the charity. And the support didn\u2019t stop there. After playing his part, the artist took to Twitter this weekend to continue his support for the cause by sending out information for others to add their own contributions.\nThis is a great example of putting your money where your mouth is when it comes to bringing awareness and making change. It\u2019s great to see entertainers doing their part in making positive impacts in communities around the world. We\u2019d definitely love to see more of this.\nIf you\u2019re interested in supporting the cause, click here to find out more information on how you can help.",

        "title": "CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Plants in the Bible",
        "raw_content": "Home > Catholic Encyclopedia > P > Plants in the Bible\nWhen Moses spoke to the people about the Land of Promise, he described it as a \"land of hills and plains\" (Deuteronomy 11:11), \"a good land, of brooks and of waters, and of fountains: in the plains of which and the hills deep rivers break out: a land of wheat, and barley, and vineyards, wherein fig-trees and pomegranates, and oliveyards grow: a land of oil and honey\" (Deuteronomy 8:7-8). This glowing description, sketched exclusively from an utilitarian point of view, was far from doing justice to the wonderful variety of the country's productions, to which several causes contributed. First the differences of elevation; for between Lebanon, 10,000 feet above sea level, and the shores of the Dead Sea, 1285 feet below the Mediterranean, every gradation of altitude is to be found, within less than 200 miles. Sinuous valleys furrow the highland, causing an incredible variation in topography; hence, cultivated land lies almost side by side with patches of desert. The soil is now of clay, now of clay mixed with lime, farther on of sand; the surface rock is soft limestone, and basalt. In addition to these factors, variations of climate consequent on change of altitude and geographical position cause forms of vegetation which elsewhere grow far apart to thrive side by side within the narrow limits of Palestine. The vegetation along the west coast, like that of Spain, southern Italy, Sicily, and Algeria, is composed of characteristic species of Mediterranean flora. Near the perennial snows of the northern peaks grow the familiar plants of Alpine and sub-Alpine regions; the highlands of Palestine and the eastern slopes of the northern ranges produce the Oriental vegetation of the steppes; whereas the peculiar climate conditions prevailing along the Gh\u00f4r and about the Dead Sea favour a sub-tropical flora, characterized by species resembling those which thrive in Nubia and Abyssinia.\nOver 3000 species of Palestinian flora are known to exist, but the Holy Land of our day can give only an imperfect idea of what it was in Biblical times. The hill-country of Juda and the Negeb are, as formerly, the grazing lands of the Judean herds, yet groves, woods, and forest flourished everywhere, few traces of which remain. The cedar-forests of Lebanon had a world-wide reputation; the slopes of Hermon and the mountains of Galaad were covered with luxuriant pine woods; oak forests were the distinctive feature of Basan, throughout Ephraim clumps of terebinths dotted the land, while extensive palm groves were both the ornament and wealth of the Jordan Valley. The arable land, much of which now lies fallow, was all cultivated and amply rewarded the tiller. The husbandman derived from his orchards and vineyards abundant crops of olives, figs, pomegranates, and grapes. Nearly every Jewish peasant had his \"garden of herbs\", furnishing in season vegetables and fruits for the table, flowers, and medicinal plants. Only some 130 plants are mentioned in Scripture, which is not surprising since ordinary people are interested only in a few, whether ornamental or useful. The first attempt to classify this flora is in Genesis 1:11-12, where it is divided into: (1) deshe, signifying all low plants, e.g., cryptogamia; (2) \u2018esebh, including herbaceous plants; (3) \u2018es peri, embracing all trees. In the course of time, the curiosity of men was attracted by the riches of Palestinian vegetation; Solomon, in particular, is said to have treated about the trees (i.e., plants) from the lofty cedar \"unto the hyssop that cometh out of the wall\" (1 Kings 4:33). Of the plants mentioned in the Bible, the most common varieties may be identified either with certainty or probability; but a large proportion of the biblical plant-names are generic rather than specific, e.g., briers, grass, nettles, etc.; and just what plants are meant in some cases is impossible to determine, e.g., algum, cockle, gall, etc. A complete alphabetical list of the plant-names found in the English Versions is here given, with an attempt at identification.\nAcacia. See Setim.\nAcanth. See Brier.\nAlgum (A. V., 2 Chronicles, 2:8; D. V., 9:10, 11, \"thyme trees\", \"fir trees\"; written \"almug\" in A.V., 1 Samuel 10:11-12). No doubt the same tree is signified, the double name being due to a mere accidental transposition of the letters; if linguistic analogy may be trusted in, almug is correct (cf. Tamil, valguka). The algum tree is spoken of as a valuable exotic product imported to Palestine by Hiram's and Solomon's fleets (1 Kings 10:11; 2 Chronicles 2:8; 9:10), suitable for fine joinery and making musical instruments (1 Kings 10:12; 2 Chronicles 9:11). Josephus (Ant., VIII, vii, 1) says it was somewhat like the wood of the fig tree, but whiter and more glittering. According to most modern scholars and certain rabbis, the red sandal-wood, Pterocarpus santalina, is intended, though some of the uses made of it appear to require a stouter material. The identification proposed by Vulg. (see Thyine) is much more satisfactory.\nAlmond tree, Hebrew luz (Genesis 30:37; \"hazel\" in A. V. is a mistranslation; cf. Arab. laux), apparently an old word later supplanted by shaqed (Genesis 43:11; Numbers 17:8; Ecclesiastes 12:5); which alludes to the early blossoming of the tree. Almonds are (Genesis 43:11) considered one of the best fruits in the Orient, and the tree, Amygdalus communis, has always been cultivated there. Several varieties, A. orientalis, Ait., or A. argentea, A. lycioides, Spach, A. spartioides, Spach, grow wild in districts such as Lebanon, Carmel, Moab.\nAlmug. See Algum.\nAloes (Proverbs 7:17; Song of Songs 4:14; John 19:39; A. V., Psalm 45:8) is reckoned among \"the chief perfumes\". In A. V., Num. xxiv, 6 (\"lign aloes\"; D. V., \"tabernacles\" is an erroneous translation), a tree is clearly intended. The officinal aloes, Liliacea, is not alluded to; the aloes of the Bible is the product of a tree of the genus Aquilaria, perhaps A. agallocha, Roxb., a native of northern India; at a certain stage of decay, the wood develops a fragrance well known to the ancients (Dioscorides, i, 21), and from it a rare perfume was obtained.\nAmomum (Revelation 18:13, neither in the Greek New Testament, Vulg., A. V., nor D. V., but found in critical editions, such as Griesbach, Lachmann, Tischendorf, Nestle), a perfume well known in antiquity (Dioscor., i, 14; Theophr., \"Hist. plant.\", ix, 7; \"De odor.\", 32; etc.). The Assyrian variety was particularly prized (Virg., Eclog., iv, 25; Josephus, \"Ant.\", XX, ii, 3; Martial., \"Epigr.\", vii, 77; Ovid, \"Heroid.\", xxi, 166; etc.), and probably obtained from Cissus vitignea, a climbing plant native of India but found also in Armenia, Media, and Pontus (Pliny, \"Nat. hist.\", xii, 13).\nAnise (Matthew 23:23), not the anise, Pimpinella anisum, but rather the dill, Anethum graveolens, shabath of the Talmud, shibith of the Arabs, is meant. Dill has always been much cultivated in Palestine; its seeds, leaves, and stems were subject to tithe, according to Rabbi Eliezer (Maasaroth, 1:I; cf. Matthew 23:23), which opinion, however, others thought excessive (Schwab, \"Talmud de Jerus.\", III, 182).\nApple tree, Heb., thappuakh (cf. Arab, tiffah; Egypt. dapih, \"apple\") and the description of the tree and its fruit indicate the common apple tree, Malus communis, which is beautiful, affording shade for a tent or a house (Cant., ii, 3; viii, 5), and bears a sweet fruit, the aroma (Cant., vii, 8) of which is used in the East to revive a fainting person (cf. Cant., ii, 5). Apple groves flourished at an early date (Ramses II) in Egypt (Loret, \"Flore pharaonique\", p. 83); place-names like Tappuah (Joshua 12:17) or Beth-tappuah (A. V., Joshua 15:53) indicate that they were a distinct feature of certain districts of Palestine.\nArum. See Cockle.\nAsh Tree. Isaiah 44:14 (A. V. for Heb., \u2019oren; D. V. \"pine\") depicts a planted tree, watered only by rain, whose wood is suitable to be carved into images and useful as fuel (Isaiah 44:15). Probably the tree intended is Pinus pinea, the maritime or stone pine, rather than the ash, as the various species of Fraxinus grow only in the mountains of Syria, outside Palestine.\nAspalathus (Ecclus., xxiv, 20; Greek, xxiv, 20; D. V. \"aromatical balm\") is quite frequently alluded to by ancient writers (Theognis Hippocrates, Theophrastes, Plutarch, Pliny etc.) as a thorny plant yielding a costly perfume. It is impossible to identify it with certainty, but most scholars believe it to be Convolvulus scoparius, also called Lignum rhodium (rose-scented wood).\nAspen. See Mulberry.\nAstragalus a genus of Papilionaceous plants of the tribe Lotea, several species of which yield the gum tragacanth (Hebrew nek\u2019oth, Arab. neka\u2019at) probably meant in Genesis 37:25; 43:11 (D.V. \"spices\"; \"storax\"). In 2 Kings 20:13, and Isaiah 39:2, Hebrew nekothoth has been mistaken for the plural of nek\u2019oth and mistranslated accordingly \"aromatical spices\"; A.V. and R.V. give, in margin, \"spicery\"; A. V. \"precious things\" is correct. The gum spoken of in Gen. was probably gathered from the species found in Palestine, A. gummifer, A. rousseaunus, A. kurdicus, A. stromatodes.\nBalm, Balsam, the regular translation of Hebrew \u00e7ori (Genesis 37:25; 43:11; Jeremiah 8:22; 46:11; 51:8), except in Ezekiel 27:17 (Hebrew pannag) and Sirach 24:20a (Greek \u2019aspalathos, see Aspalathus); xxiv, 20b (Greek sm\u00farna). The \u00e7ori is described as coming from Galaad (Jeremiah 8:22; 46:11) and having medicinal properties (Jeremiah 51:8). It is obtained from Balsamodendron opobalsamum, Kunth., which is extant in tropical regions of east Africa and Arabia and yields the \"balm of Mecca\"; and Amyris gileadensis, a variety of the former, which gave the more extravagantly prized \"balm of Judea\", and is now extinct; it was extensively cultivated around the Lake of Tiberias, in the Jordan Valley, and on the shores of the Dead Sea (Talm. Babyl. Shabbath, 26a; Josephus, \"Ant.\", IX, i, 2; Jerome, \"Qu\u00e6st in Gen.\", xiv, 7; Pliny, \"Nat. hist.\", xii, 25, etc.). The word \u00e7ori is also applied to the gum from the mastic tree, or lentisk (Pistacia lentiscus, cf. Arab. daru), and that from Balanites \u00e6gyptica, Del., falsely styled \"balm of Galaad\". The meaning of pannag, mentioned in Ezekiel 27:17, is not known with certainty; modern commentators agree with R. V. (marginal gloss) that it is \"a kind of confection\".\nBalsam, Aromatical. See Aspalathus.\nBarley (Hebrew se\u2019orah, \"hairy\", an allusion to the length of the awns) was cultivated through the East as provender for horses and asses (1 Kings 4:28), also as a staple food among the poor, working men, and the people at large in times of distress. The grain was either roasted (Leviticus 2:14; 2 Kings 4:43) or milled, kneaded and cooked in ovens as bread or cake. Barley, being the commonest grain, was considered a type of worthless things, hence the contemptuous force of Ezekiel 13:19; Judges, vii, 13; and Osee, iii, 2. Hordeum ithaburense, Boiss., grows wild in many districts of Palestine; cultivation has developed the two (H. distichum), four (H. tetrastichum), and six-rowed (H. hexastichum) barley. The harvest begins in April in the Gh\u00f4r, and continues later in higher altitudes; a sheaf of the new crop was offered in oblation on the \"sabbath of the Passover\".\nBay tree, so A.V. in Psalm 36:35; D.V. \"Cedar of Libanus\", which renderings are erroneous. The correct meaning of the Heb. text is: \"as a green tree\", any kind of evergreen tree, \"in its native soil\".\nBdellium (Genesis 2:12; Numbers 11:7), either a precious stone or the aromatic gum of Amyris agallochum, a small resinous tree of northern India, found also, according to Pliny, in Arabia, Media, and Babylonia.\nBeans (2 Samuel 17:28; Ezekiel 4:9), the horse-bean (Faba vulgaris; cf. Hebrew pol and Arab. ful), an ordinary article of food, extensively cultivated in the East. The string-bean, Vigna sinensis, kidney-bean, Phaseolus vulgaris, and Phaseolus molliflorus, also grow in Palestine.\nBlackthorn. See Bur.\nBlasting. See Mildew.\nBorith, a Heb. word transliterated in Jeremiah 2:22, and translated in Mal., iii, 2 by \"fuller's herb\" (A. V. \"scap\"). St. Jerome in his Commentary on Jeremiah 2:22, identifies borith with the \"fuller's weed\", which was not used, like the Dipsacus fullonum, Mill., to dress cloth, but to wash it; St. Jerome adds that the plant grew on rich, damp soil, which description applies to a species of Saponaria; yet many modern scholars think he refers to some vegetable alkali procured by burning plants like Salsola kali and the Salicornias (S. fructicosa; S. herbacea) abundant on the coast.\nBoxthorn. See Bramble.\nBox tree (Isaiah 41:19; 60:13; in D. V., Ezekiel 27:6, instead of \"ivory and cabins\", we should read: \"ivory inlain in boxwood\"), probably the Hebrew the\u2019ashshur. The box tree does not grow in Palestine, and indeed the Bible nowhere intimates this, but it mentions the box tree of Lebanon, Buxus longifolia, Boiss., and that imported from the islands of the Mediterranean.\nBramble, translated from Hebrew \u2019atad in Judges, ix, 14-15, also rendered \"thorn\", in Psalm 57:10. The Latin version has in both places rhamnus, \"buckthorn\"; of which several species grow in Palestine and Syria, but Arabic writers hold that the various kinds of Lycium or boxthorn are meant.\nBriers. (1) Hebrew kharul rendered \"burning\" in D.V., Job 30:7, \"thorns\" in Proverbs 24:31 and Sophon., ii, 9, according to which texts it must be large enough for people to sit under, and must develop rapidly in uncultivated lands. Its translation as \"thistles\" or \"nettles\" is unsuitable, for these plants do not reach the proportions required by Job 30:7, hence it is generally believed to be either the acanth, Acanthus spinosus, or rest-harrow, two species of which, Onamis antiquarum, and particularly O. leiosperma, Boiss., are very common in the Holy Land. (2) Hebrew barquanim (Judges 8:7, 16) probably corresponds to the numerous species of Rubus which abound in Palestine; according to Moore (Judges, ad loc.), Phaceopappus scoparius, Boiss., is intended. (3) Hebrew khedeq (Micah 7:4). See Mad-apple. (4) Hebrew shamir (Isaiah 5:6; 9:18; 10:17; 32:13), the flexible Paliurus aculeatus, Lam., Arab. samur, the supposed material of Christ's crown of thorns. (5) Hebrew shqyth (Isaiah 7:23-5), a word not found outside of Isaias, and possibly designating prickly bushes in general.\nBroom. See Juniper.\nBuckthorn. See Bramble.\nBulrush represents three Heb. words: (1) gome Exodus 2:3; Isaiah 18:2; 35:7), Cyperus papyrus, is now extinct in Egypt (cf. Isaiah 19:6-7), where it was formerly regarded as the distinctive plant of the country (Strab., xvii, 15) and the Nile was styled \"the papyrus-bearer\" (Ovid, \"Metam.\", xv, 753), but still grows around the Lake of Tiberias, Lake Huleh. (2) \u2019Agmon (A. V., Isaiah 58:5; D. V. \"circle\") is variously rendered (D. V. Isaiah 19:15; Job 40:21). The plant whose flexibility is alluded to in Isaiah 58:5, A. V. appears to be either the common reed, Arundo donax, or some kind of rush; Juncus communis, J. maritimus, Lam., J. acutus are abundant in Palestine. (3) Suph (Isaiah 19:6; A. V. \"flag\"; etc.), Egypt. t\u00fbf, probably designates the various kinds of rush and sea-weeds (Jonah 2:6). Yam Suph is the Hebrew name for the Red Sea.\nBur, so, D. V., Os., ix, 6; x, 8, translating Vulgate lappa, \"burdock\", for Hebrew khoakh and qosh. Khoakh recurs in Proverbs 26:9; Cant., ii, 2 (D. V. \"thorns\"); 2 Kings 14:9; 2 Chronicles 25:18; Job 31:40 (D.V. \"thistle\"); \"thorn\" is the ordinary meaning of qosh. If burdock is the equivalent of khoakh, then Lappa major, D. C., growing in Lebanon is signified, as Lappa minor, D. C., is unknown in Palestine; however, the many kinds of thistles common in the East suit better the description. Yet, from the resemblance of Arab. khaukh with Hebrew khoakh, some species of blackthorn or sloe tree Prunus ursina, and others, Arab. khaukh al-dib might be intended.\nBurnet. See Thistle (5).\nBush, Burning, Hebrew seneh, \"thorny\" (Exodus 3:2-4; Deuteronomy 33:16), probably a kind of whitethorn of goodly proportions (Crat\u00e6gus sinaitica, Boiss.) common throughout the Sinaitic Peninsula. Arab. sanna is applied to all thorny shrubs.\nCalamus, Hebrew qaneh (Exodus 30:23; Ezekiel 27:19; Song of Songs 4:14, and Isaiah 43:24; D. V. \"sweet cane\"; Jeremiah 6:20: \"sweet-smelling cane\"), a scented reed yielding a perfume entering into the composition of the spices burned in sacrifices (Isaiah 43:24; Jeremiah 6:20) and of the oil of unction (Exodus 30:23-5). The qaneh is, according to some, Andropogon sch\u00e6nanthus, which was used in Egypt for making the Kyphi or sacred perfume; according to others, Acorus aromaticus.\nCane, Sweet (Song of Songs 4:14; Isaiah 43:24). See Calamus.\nCane, Sweet-smelling (Jeremiah 6:20). See Calamus.\nCamphire (A. V., Song of Songs 1:14; D.V. 4:13; \"cypress\"). From Hebrew kopher. The modern \"camphor\" was unknown to the ancients. Pliny identifies cyprus with the ligustrum of Italy, but the plant is no other than the henna tree (Lawsonia alba) the Orientals are so fond of. Its red sweet-scented spikes (Douay Version, Cant., i, 13; \"clusters\") yield the henna oil; from its powdered leaves is obtained the reddish-orange paste with which Eastern women stain their finger and toe nails and dye their hair. Ascalon and Engaddi were particularly renowned for their henna.\nCaper, Hebrew abiyyonah (Douay Version, Ecclesiastes 12:5), the fruit of the caper tree, probably Capparis spinosa; C. herbacea, and C. \u00e6gyptiaca are also found in Palestine.\nCarob, Greek ker\u00e1tion (Luke 15:16), translated \"husks\" (A.V.; D.V.), the coarse pods of the locust tree, Ceratonia siliqua, \"St. John's bread-tree\".\nCassia, Hebrew qiddah (Exodus 30:24; Ezekiel 27:19; D. V. \"stacte\"). Egypt. qad, the aromatic bark of Cinnamomum cassia, Bl., of India, an ingredient of the oil of unction (Exodus 30:24), and the Egyptian Kyphi. In Psalm 44:9, qe\u00e7i\u2019ah, the Aramaic equivalent of qiddah,is possibly an explanation of \u2019ahaloth. There is no Biblical reference to the cassia, from which the senna of medicine is obtained.\nCedar, indiscriminately applied to Cedrus libani, C. bermudensis, Juniperus virginiana, and Cupressus thymoides, as Heb., \u2019erez was used for three different trees: (1) The cedar wood employed in certain ceremonies of purification (Leviticus 14:4, 6; 49052; Numbers 19:6) was either Juniperus ph\u00e6nicea, or J. oxycedrus, which pagans burned during sacrifices and at funeral piles (Hom., \"Odyss.\", v, 60; Ovid, \"Fast.\", ii, 538), and Pliny calls \"little cedar\" (Nat. Hist., XIII, i, 30). (2) The tree growing \"by the waterside\" (Numbers 24:6) appears from Ez., xxxi, 7, to be the Cedrus libani, which usually thrives on dry mountain slopes. (3) In most of the other passages of Holy Writ, Cedrus libani, Barr, is intended, which \"prince of trees\", by its height (Isaiah 2:13; Ezekiel 31:3, 8; Amos 2:9), appropriately figured the mighty Eastern empires (Ezekiel 31:3-18, etc.). From its trunk ship-masts (Ezekiel 27:5), pillars, beams, and boards for temples and palaces (1 Kings 6:9; 7:2) were made; its hard, close-grained wood, capable of receiving a high polish, was a suitable material for carved ornamentations (1 Kings 6:18) and images (Isaiah 44:14-5). Cedar forests were a paradise of aromatic scent, owing to the fragrant resin exuding from every pore of the bark (Song of Songs 4:11; Hosea 14:7); they were \"the glory of Libanus\" (Isaiah 35:2; 60:13), as well as a source of riches for their possessors (1 Kings 5:6 sqq.; 1 Chronicles 22:4) and an object of envy to the powerful monarchs of Nineveh (Isaiah 37:24; inscr. of several Assyrian kings).\nCedrat, Citrus medica, or C. cedra is, according to the Syriac and Arabic Bibles, the \"Targum\" of Onkelos, Josephus (Ant. III, x, 4) and the Talmud (Sukka, iii, 5), the hadar (D. V. \"the fairest tree\") spoken of in Lev., xxiii, 40, in reference to the feast of Tabernacles.\nCentaurea. See Thistles.\nCharlock. See Mustard.\nChestnut-tree. See Plane-tree.\nCinnamon, Hebrew, qinnamon (Exodus 30:23; Proverbs 7:17; Song of Songs 4:14; Sirach 24:20; Revelation 18:13), the inner aromatic bark of Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Nees, an ingredient of the oil of unction and of the Kyphi.\nCitron, Citrus limonum, supposed by some Rabbis to be intended in the text of Lev., xxiii, 40; \"boughs of hadar\", used regularly in the service of the synagogue and hardly distinguishable from cedrat.\nCockle, A. V., Job 31:40, for Hebrew be\u2019osha: D. V. \"thorns\". The marginal renderings of A. V. and R. V. \"stinking weeds\", \"noisome weeds\", are much more correct. D. V., Matthew 13:24-30, translates the Greek ziz\u00e1nia by cockle. The two names used in the original text point to plants of quite different characters: (1) According to etymology, be\u2019osha must refer to some plant of offensive smell; besides the stink-weed (Datura stramonium) and the ill-smelling goose-weeds (Solanum nigrum) there are several fetid arums, henbanes, and mandrakes in Palestine, hence be\u2019osha appears to be a general term applicable to all noisome and harmful plants. In the English Bibles, Isaiah 5:2-4, the plural form is translated by \"wild grapes\", a weak rendering in view of the terrible judgment pronounced against the vineyard in the context; be\u2019ushim may mean stinking fruits, as be\u2019osha means stinking weeds. (2) ziz\u00e1nia, from Aram. zonin, stands for Lolium temulentum, or bearded darnel, the only grass with a poisonous seed, \"entirely like wheat till the ear appears\". The rendering of both versions is therefore inaccurate.\nColocynth, Citrullus colocynthis, Schr., Cucumis c., probably the \"wild gourd\" of 2 Kings 4:38-40, common throughout the Holy Land. In 1 Kings 6:18; 7:24, we read about carvings around the inside of the Temple and the brazen sea, probably representing the ornamental leaves, stems, tendrils, and fruits of the colocynth.\nCoriander seed (Exodus 16:31; Numbers 11:7), the fruit of Coriandrum sativum, allied to aniseed and caraway.\nCorn, a general word for cereals in English Bibles, like dagan in Heb. Wheat, barley, spelt (fitches), vetch, millet, pulse; rye and oats are neither mentioned in Scripture nor cultivated in the Holy Land.\nCorn, Winter, Hebrew kussemeth (Douay Version, Exodus 9:32; A.V. \"rye\"), rendered \"spelt\" in Isaiah 28:25, yet the close resemblance of Arab. kirsanah with Hebrew suggests a leguminous plant, Vicia ervilia.\nCotton, Hebrew or Persian karpas, Gossypium herbaceum, translated \"green\". Probably the shesh of Egypt and the bu\u00e7 of Syria (Ezekiel 27:7, 16, \"fine linen\") were also cotton.\nCucumber, Hebrew qishshu\u2019im (Numbers 11:5; Isaiah 1:8), evidently the species Cucumis chate (cf. Arab. qiththa), indigenous in Egypt; C. sativus is also extensively cultivated in Palestine.\nCummin, Hebrew kammon, Arabic kammun, the seed of Cuminum cyminum (Isaiah 28:25, 27; Matthew 23:23).\nCypress, in D. V., Cant., i, 16 (A. V., 17) a poor translation of Hebrew \u2019e\u00e7 shemen (see Oil tree); elsewhere Hebrew berosh is rendered \"fir tree\"; in Sirach 24:17, the original word is not known. Among the identifications proposed for beroth are Pinus halapensis, Miel., and Cupressus sempervirens, the latter more probable.\nCyprus (Cant., i, 13; iv, 13). See Camphire.\nDarnel, bearded. See Cockle (2).\nDill (R.V., Matthew 23:23). See Anise.\nEar of corn translates three Heb. words: (1) shibboleth, the ripe ear ready for harvest; (2) melilah, the ears that one may pluck to rub in the hands, and eat the grains (Deuteronomy 23:25; Matthew 12:1; Mark 2:23; Luke 6:1); (3) abib, the green and tender ear of corn.\nEbony. Hebrew hobnim, Arab. ebmus (Ezekiel 27:15), the black heart wood of Diospyros ebenum, and allied species of the same genus, imported from coasts of Indian Ocean by merchantmen of Tyre.\nElecampane. See Thistle (6).\nElm translates: (1) Hebrew thidhar (Douay Version, Isaiah 41:19; Isaiah 60:13: \"pine trees\"), possibly Ulmus campestris, Sm. (Arab. derdar); (2) Hebrew \u2019elah (A. V., Hos., iv, 13; D. V. \"turpentine tree\"). See Terebinth.\nFigs (Hebrew te\u2019\u00eanim), the fruit of the fig tree (Hebrew te\u2019\u00eanah), Ficus carica, growing spontaneously and cultivated throughout the Holy Land. The fruit buds, which appear at the time of the \"latter rains\" (spring), are called \"green figs\" (Song of Songs 2:13; Hebrew pag, cf. Beth-phage), which, \"late in spring\" (Matthew 24:32), ripen under the overshadowing leaves, hence Mark 11:13, and the parable of the barren fig tree (Matthew 21:19, 21; Mark 11:20-6; Luke 13:6-9). Precociously ripening figs (Hebrew bikkurah) are particularly relished; the ordinary ripe fruit is eaten fresh or dried in compressed cakes (Hebrew debelah: 1 Samuel 25:18, etc.). Orientals still regard figs as the best poultice (2 Kings 20:7; Isaiah 38:21; St. Jerome, \"In Isaiam\", xxxviii, 21, in P.L., XXIV, 396).\nFir, applied to all coniferous trees except the cedar, but should be restricted to the genera Abies and Picea, meant by Hebrew siakh (Genesis 21:15; D. V. \"trees\"; cf. Arab., shukh). Among these, Abies cilicia, Kotsch, and Picea orientalis are found in the Lebanon, Amanus and northward.\nFitches. Hebrew, kussemeth (Ezekiel 4:9), possibly Vicia ervilia, rendered \"gith\" by D.V., \"rye\" and \"spelt\" by A.V. and R.V. in Isaiah 28:25.\nFlag, Hebrew akhu (A.V., Genesis 41:2, 18: \"meadow\"; D.V. \"marshy places\", \"green places in a marshy pasture\"; Job 8:11; D.V. \"sedge-bush\"), a plant growing in marshes and good for cattle to feed upon, probably Cyperus esculentus.\nFlax, Hebrew pistah (Exodus 9:31; Deuteronomy 22:11; \"linen\"; Proverbs 31:13), Linum usitatissimum, very early cultivated in Egypt and Palestine.\nFlower of the field, Hebrew khabba\u00e7\u00e7eth (Isaiah 25:1), kh. sharon (Cant., ii, 1), like Arab. b\u00fbseil, by which Narcissus tazetta is designated by the Palestinians. Possibly N. serotinus, or fall Narcissus, was also meant by Heb., which some suppose to mean the meadow-saffron (Colchicum variegatum, C. steveni), abundant in the Holy Land.\nForest translates five Heb. words: (1) Ya\u2019ar, forest proper; (2) horesh, \"wooded height\"; (3) \u00e7ebak, a clump of trees; (4) \u2018abhim, thicket; (5) parde\u00e7, orchard. Among the numerous forests mentioned in the Bible are: Forest of Ephraim, which, in the Canaanite period, extended from Bethel to Bethsan; that between Bethel and the Jordan (2 Kings 2:24); Forest of Hareth, on the western slopes of the Judean hills; Forest of Aialon, west of Bethoron; Forests of Kiriath Yearim; the forest where Joatham built castles and towers (2 Chronicles 27:4) in the mountains of Juda; that at the edge of the Judean desert near Ziph (1 Samuel 23:15); Forest of the South (Ezekiel 20:46, 47); and those of Basan (Isaiah 2:13) and Ephraim (2 Samuel 18:6). Lebanon, Carmel, Hermon were also covered with luxuriant forests.\nFrankincense (Hebrew lebonah) should not be confounded with incense (Hebrew qetorah), which confusion has been made in several passages of the English Bibles, e.g., Isaiah 43:23; 60:6 (A.V.); Jeremiah 6:20. Incense was a mixture of frankincense and other spices (Exodus 30:34-5). Arabian frankincense, the frankincense par excellence, is the aromatical resin of Boswellia sacra, a tree which grows in southern Arabia (Arab. luban); B. papyrifera of Abyssinia yields African frankincense, which is also good.\nFuller's herb (Malachi 3:2). See Borith.\nGalbanum, Hebrew khelbenah (Exodus 30:34; Sirach 24:21), a gum produced by Ferula galbaniflua, Boiss. and other umbelliferous plants of the same genus. Its odour is pungent, and it was probably used in the composition of incense to drive away insects from the sanctuary.\nGall translates two Heb. words: (1) mererah, which stands for bile; (2) rosh, a bitter plant associated with wormwood, and growing \"in the furrows of the field\" (Hosea 10:4; D. V. \"bitterness\"), identified with: poison hemlock (A. V., Hos., x, 4), Conium maculatum, not grown in the fields; colocynth, Citrullus colocynthis, not found in ploughed ground; and darnel, Lolium temulentum, not bitter. Probably the poppy, Papaver rheas, or P. somniferum, Arab. ras elhishhash, is meant.\nGarlic, Allium sativum, Hebrew shum (cf. Arab. thum), a favourite article of food in the East. The species most commonly cultivated is the shallot, Allium ascalonicum.\nGith, Hebrew que\u00e7ath (Isaiah 28:25, 27), Nigella sativa; A.V. \"fitches\" is wrong, nor does que\u00e7akh stand for the nutmeg flower, as G.E. Post suggests.\nGoose-weed. See Cockle.\nGopher wood (Genesis 6:14; D.V. \"timber planks\"), a tree suitable for shipbuilding: cypress, cedar, and other resinous trees have been proposed, but interpreters remain at variance.\nGourd, Hebrew qiqayou (Jonah 4:6-10; D.V. \"ivy\"), the bottle-gourd, Cucurbita lagenaria, frequently used to overshadow booths or as a screen along trellises.\nGrape, wild. See Colocynth.\nGrape. See Vine.\nGrape, Wild. See Cockle.\nGrass translates four Heb. words: (1) deshe\u2019, pasture or tender grass, consisting mainly of forage plants; (2) yerek, verdure in general; (3) kha\u00e7ir, a good equivalent for grass; (4) \u2019esebh, herbage, including vegetables suitable for human food. It occurs frequently in the Bible, as in Genesis 47:4; Numbers 22:4; Job 6:5; 30:4 (see Mallows); 40:15; Matthew 6:30; etc.\nGrove, English rendering of two Hebrew words: (1) asherah, a sacred pole or raised stone in a temple enclosure, which \"groves\" do not concern us here; (2) \u2019eshel, probably the tamarisk tree (q.v.; cf. Arab. \u2019athl), but translated \"groves\" in Genesis 21:33, and rendered elsewhere by \"wood\", as in 1 Samuel 31:6 and 31:13.\nHay, Hebrew hasas (Proverbs 27:25), a dried herb for cattle. \"Stubble\" in Isaiah 5:24; 33:11, also translates hasas.\nHazel. See Almond tree.\nHeath, Heb. \u2019ar\u2019 ar\u2019 aro\u2019er (A.V., Jeremiah 17:6; 48:6; D. V. \"tamaric\", \"heath\"), a green bush bearing red or pink blossoms, and native of the Cape of Good Hope. The only species in Palestine is the Erica verticillata, Forskal. The E. multiflora is abundant in the Mediterranean region.\nHemlock, Hebrew rosh (A. V., Hosea 10:4; Amos 6:12; D. V. \"bitterness\"; 13, \"wormwood\"), an umbelliferous plant from which the poisonous alkaloid, conia, is derived. Conium maculatum and \u00c6thusa cynapium are found in Syria. The water- hemlock is found only in colder zones. See Gall.\nHenna. See Camphire.\nHerb. See Grass.\nHerbs, Bitter, Hebrew meorim (Exodus 12:8; Numbers 9:11; D. V. \"wild lettuce\"), comprise diverse plants of the family of Composit\u00e6, which were eaten with the paschal lamb. Five species are known: wild lettuce, Hebrew hazeret; endive, ulsin; chicory, tamka; harhabina and maror, whose translation is variously rendered a kind of millet or beet, and the bitter coriander or horehound.\nHolm (Daniel 13:58; Isaiah 44:14; A.V. \"cypress\") probably Hebrew tirzah, a kind of evergreen-oak.\nHusks. See Carob.\nHyssop, Heb. \u2019ezob, Arab, zufa, an aromatic herb forming a dwarf bush. The Hysoppus officinalis, Linn\u00e9 (Exodus 12:22; Leviticus 14:4, 6, 49, 51-52; Numbers 19:6; Psalm 1:9; Hebrews 9:19), was used in aspersion. In 1 Kings 4:33, hyssop is a species of moss (Orthotricum saxatile; Pottia trunculata) spoken of in contrast to the grandeur of the cedar. The \"hyssop\" mentioned in John 14:29, is written \"reed\" in Matthew 27:48, and Mark 15:36.\nIvy (Jonah 4:6-10; see Gourd), the Hedera helix, (2 Maccabees 6:78), which grows wild in Palestine.\nJuniper (Douay Version, 1 Kings 19:4-5; Job 30:4; Psalm 119:4: \"That lay waste\", a mistranslation), an equivalent of Hebrew rothem, a sort of broom (Retama retem, cf. Arab. ratam).\nKnapweed. See Thistles.\nLadanum, Hebrew lot (D. V. \"stacte\", A. V. \"myrrh,\" in Genesis 37:25; 43:11), a gum from several plants of the genus Cistus (rock-rose); C. villosus and C. salvifolius are very abundant. In Sirach 24:21, \"storax\". Hebrew libneh, is the equivalent of Greek stacht\u00e9, used by Septuagint in the above passages of Gen.; whether ladanum was meant is not clear, as it is frequently the Greek rendering of Hebrew nataf.\nLeeks, Hebrew kha\u00e7ir (Numbers 11:5), also rendered \"grass\", a vegetable, Allium porrum.\nLentils, Hebrew \u2019adashim (Genesis 25:34; 2 Samuel 17:28; Ezekiel 4:9), Arabic adas, Ervum lens, or Lens esculenta, Moench., an important article of diet.\nLentisk. See Balm, Mastic tree.\nLign aloes. See Aloes.\nLily. (1) Hebrew shushan, Arab. susan, a generical term applicable to many widely different flowers, not only of the order Liliace\u00e6, but of Iridace\u00e6, Amaryllidace\u00e6, and others. Lilium candidum is cultivated everywhere; Gladiolus illyricus, Koch, G. septum, Gawl, G. atroviolaceus, Boiss., are indigenous in the Holy Land; Iris sari, Schott, I. palestina, Baker, I. lorteti, Barb., I. helen\u00e6, are likewise abundant in pastures and swampy places. (2) The \"lilies of the field\" surpassing Solomon in glory were lilylike plants; needless to suppose that any others, e.g. the windflower of Palestine, were intended.\nLily of the valleys, Heb. khabba\u00e7\u00e7eleth. See Flower of the field.\nLocust tree. See Carob.\nLotus. (1) A water plant of the order Nymph\u00e6ace\u00e6, the white species of which, Nymph\u00e6a lotus, was called in Egyptian seshni, sushin, like the Hebrew shushan, which may have been applied to water-lilies, but the lotus was probably intended in 1 Kings 7:19, 22, 26, 49. (2) A tree, Hebrew \u00e7e \u2019elim (A.V. Job 40:16-17: \"shadow\", \"shades\"), Zizyphus lotus, very common in Africa on the river banks.\nMad-apple, Hebrew khodeq (Proverbs 26:9; D. V. \"thorn\"; Micah 7:4: \"briers\"), Arab. khadaq, Solanum coagulans, Forskal, of the same genus as our mad apple, found near Jericho. Solanum cordatum, Forskal, may also be intended.\nMallows, a mistranslation in A.V., Job 30:4, for the orache or sea-purslain, Atriplex halimus, from Hebrew malluakh, derived from melakh, \"salt\", as halimus from \u2019\u00e1ls. According to Galen, the extremities are edible; the Talmud tells us that the Jews working in the re-construction of the Temple (520-15 B.C.) ate it (Kiddushim, iii, fol. 66a).\nMandrake, from Heb., dud\u2018, meaning \"love plant\", which Orientals believe ensures conception. All interpreters hold Mandragora officinarum to be the plant intended in Genesis 30:14, and Cant., vii, 13.\nManna of commerce is a sugary secretion of various Oriental plants, Tamarix mannifera, Ehr., Alhaqi camelorum, Fish., Cotoneaster nummularia, Fraxinus ornus, and F. rotundifolia; it has none of the qualifications attributed to the manna of Exodus 16.\nMastic tree, an alliteration of the Greek sch\u00eenos, sch\u00edsei, Aram. pistheqa-pesag (Daniel 13:54), the lentisk, Pistacia lentiscus, common in the East, which exudes a fragrant resin extensively used to flavour sweetmeats, wine, etc. See Balm.\nMeadow, A.V., Genesis 41:2, 18 (D.V. \"marshy places\"), for Hebrew akhu. See Flag; Sedge-bush.\nMeadow saffron. See Flower of the field.\nMelon, Hebrew \u2019abhattikhim (Numbers 11:5), like Arab. bottikh, old Egypt. buttuga, seems to have a generic connotation, yet it designated primarily the watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris, Shrad.), and secondarily other melons. The passage of Numbers refers only to the melons of Egypt, and there is no mention in the Bible of melons of Palestine, yet they were in old times cultivated as extensively as now.\nMildew, Hebrew yeraqon, occurs three times in D. V. and with it is mentioned shiddaphon, variously rendered (2 Chronicles 6:28: \"blasting\"; Amos 4:9: \"burning wind\"; Haggai 2:18: \"blasting wind\"). In Deuteronomy 28:22, and 1 Kings 8:37, yeraqon is translated \"blasting\" (A. V. \"mildew\"), and shiddaphon, \"corrupted air\". Translators evidently had no definite idea of the nature and difference of these two plagues. Yeraqon, or mildew, is caused by parasitic fungi like Puccinia graminis and P. straminis which suck out of the grain, on which they develop on account of excessive moisture. Shiddaphon, or smut, manifests itself, in periods of excessive drought, and is caused by fungi of the genus Ustilago, which, when fully developed, with the aid of the khamsin wind, \"blast\" the grain.\nMillet, Hebrew dokhan (Ezekiel 4:9), Arab. dokhn, is applied to Panicum miliaceum, and Setaria italica, Kth. The rendering \"millet\", in D. V., Isaiah 28:25, is not justified, as Hebrew nisman, found here, means \"put in its place\".\nMint (Matthew 23:23; Luke 11:42). Various species are found in Palestine: Mentha sylvestris, the horse-mint, with its variety M. viridis, the spear-mint, grow everywhere; M. sativa, the garden-mint, is cultivated in all gardens; M. piperita, the peppermint, M. aquatica, the water-mint, M. pulegium, the pennyroyal, are also found in abundance. Mint is not mentioned in the Law among tithable things, but the Pharisaic opinion subjecting to tithe all edibles acquired force of law.\nMulberry, Hebrew beka\u2019 im (A. V., 2 Samuel 5:23-4; 1 Chronicles 14:14-5; D. V. \"pear tree\"), a tree, two species of which are cultivated in Palestine: Morus alba, M. nigra. Neither this nor pear-tree is a likely translation; the context rather suggests a tree the leaves of which rustle like the aspen, Populus tremula. In D.V. Luke 17:6, \"mulberry tree\" is probably a good translation.\nMustard. Several kinds of mustard-plant grow in the Holy Land, either wild, as the charlock, Sinapis arvensis, and the white mustard, S. Alba, or cultivated, as S. nigra, which last seems the one intended in the Gospel. Our Lord compares the kingdom of God to a mustard seed (Matthew 13:31-2), a familiar term to mean the tiniest thing possible (cf. Talmud Jerus. Peah, 7; T. Babyl. Kethub., iiib), \"which a man \u2026 sowed in his field\" and which \"when it is grown up, it is greater than all herbs\"; the mustard tree attains in Palestine a height of ten feet and is a favourite resort of linnets and finches.\nMyrrh translates two Heb. words: (1) mor (cf. Arab. morr), the aromatic resin produced by Balsamodendron myrrha, Nees, which grows in Arabia and subtropical east Africa, was extensively used among the ancients, not only as a perfume (Exodus 30:23; Psalm 44:9; Proverbs 7:17; Song of Songs 1:12; 5:5), but also for embalming (John 19:39) and as an anodyne (Mark, xv, 23; (2) lot, see Ladanum.\nMyrtle, Hebrew hadas (Isaiah 41:19; 55:13; Zechariah 1:8, 10, 11), Myrtus communis, Arab. hadas, an evergreen shrub especially prized for its fragrant leaves, and found in great abundance in certain districts of Palestine. Its height is usually three to four feet, attaining to eight feet in moist soil, and a variety cultivated in Damascus reaches up ten to twelve feet; hence an erroneous translation in almost all the above Scriptural passages.\nNard, pistic (R.V. margin, Mark 14:3). See Spikenard.\nNettles translates two Heb. words: (1) kharul, plur. kharulim (A. V., Job 30:7; D. V. \"briers\"; Zephaniah 2:9; Proverbs 24:31; D. V. \"thorns\"), see Bramble; (2) qimmosh, qimmeshonim (Proverbs 24:31; A. V. \"thorns\"; Isaiah 34:13; Hosea 9:6): correctly rendered \"nettles\" (Urtica urens, U. dioica, U. pilulifera, U. membranacea, Poir.), which are found everywhere on neglected patches, whilst the deserts abound with Forskahlea tenacissima, a plant akin to the Urtica.\nNut, equivalent of two Heb. words: (1) \u2019egoz (Cant., vi, 10), Arab. jauz, the walnut tree, universally cultivated in the East; (2) botnim (A. V., Genesis 43:11), probably the pistachio nut, Arab. butm. See Pistachio.\nOak, Hebrew \u2019ayl, \u2019elah, \u2019elon, \u2019allah, \u2019alon are thus indiscriminately translated. From Osee iv, 13, and Isaiah 6:13, it appears that the \u2019elah is different from the \u2019allon; in fact, \u2019ayl, \u2019elah, \u2019elon, are understood by some to be the terebinth \u2019allah and \u2019allon representing the oak. The genus Quercus is largely represented in Palestine and Syria, as to the number of individuals and species, seven of which have been found: (1) Quercus robur is represented by two varieties: Q. cedrorum and Q. pinnatifida; (2) Q. infectoria; (3) Q. ilex; (4) Q. coccifera, or holm oak, of which there are three varieties: Q. calliprinos, Q. palestina, and Q. pseudo- coccifera, this latter, a prickly evergreen oak with leaves like very small holly, most common in the land, especially as brushwood; (5) Q. cerris; (6) Q. \u00e6gylops, the Valonia oak, also very common and of which two varieties are known: Q. ithaburensis and Q . look, Ky.; (7) Q. libani, Oliv.\nOil tree, Hebrew \u2019es shemen (Isaiah 41:19; 1 Kings 6:23, 31-3; III Esdras 8:15), the olive-tree in D. V., the oleaster in R. V., and variously rendered in A. V.: \"oil tree\", \"olive tree\" and \"pine\". To meet the requirements of the different passages where the \u2019es shemen is mentioned, it must be a fat tree, producing oil or resin, an emblem of fertility, capable of furnishing a block of wood out of which an image ten feet high may be carved, it must grow in mountains near Jerusalem, and have a dense foliage. Wild olive, oleaster, El\u00e6agnus angustifolius (Arab., haleph), Balanites \u00e6gyptiaca, Del. (Arab. zaqqum), are therefore excluded; some kind of pine is probably meant.\nOlive tree, Olea europ\u00e6a, one of the most characteristic trees of the Mediterranean region, and universally cultivated in the Holy Land. Scriptural allusions to it are very numerous, and the ruins of oil-presses manifest the extensive use of its enormous produce: olives, the husbandman's only relish; oil which serves as food, medicine, unguent, and fuel for lamps; finally candles and soap. The olive tree was considered the symbol of fruitfulness, blessing, and happiness, the emblem of peace and prosperity.\nOlive, Wild (Romans 11:17, 24), not the oleaster, El\u00e6agnus angustifolia, common throughout Palestine, but the seedling of the olive, on which the Olea europ\u00e6a is grafted.\nOnion, Hebrew be\u00e7alim (Numbers 11:5), Allium cepa, universally cultivated and forming an important and favourite article of diet in the East. Successes in America were immediately owing to the vigorous exertions and prowess of the Irish immigrants who bore arms in that cause\" (Historical Review of the State of Ireland, II, 178). The historians Marmion and Gordon write to the same effect.\nPalm tree, Hebrew thamar (Exodus 15:27), tomer (Judges 4:5), Ph\u00e6nix dactylifera, the date palm. The palm tree flourishes now only in the maritime plain, but the Jordan Valley, Engaddi, Mount Olivet, and many other localities were renowned in antiquity for their palm groves. In fact, the abundance of palm trees in certain places suggested their names: Ph\u0153nicia (from Greek pho\u00eeniks), Engaddi, formerly named Hazazon Thamar, i.e. \"Palm grove\", Jericho, surnamed \"the City of Palm trees\", Bethany, \"the house of dates\", are among the best known. Dates are a staple article of food among the Bedouins; unlike figs, they are not dried into compressed cakes, but separately; date wine was known throughout the East and is still made in a few places; date honey (Hebrew debash; cf. Arab. dibs) has always been one of the favourite sweetmeats of the Orientals. There are many allusions in Scripture to palm trees, which are also prominent in architectural ornamentation (Hebrew timmorah, 1 Kings 6:29).\nPaper reed, Hebrew aroth (A. V., Isaiah 19:7) preferably rendered \"the channel of the river\" (D. V.), as the allusion seems to be to the meadows on the banks of the Nile.\nPear tree. See Mulberry.\nPen, in Psalm 44:2 and Jeremiah 8:8, is probably the stalk of Arundo donax, which the ancients used for writing, as do also the modern Orientals.\nPennyroyal. See Mint.\nPeppermint. See Mint.\nPine tree translates the Hebrew words: (1) \u2019oren (Isaiah 44:14; A.V. \"ash\", possibly Pinus pinea; (2) thidhar (Isaiah 60:13; Isaiah 41:19; D.V. \"elm\"), the elm rather than pine.\nPistachio, Hebrew botnim (Genesis 43:11), probably refers to the nut-fruits of Pistacia vera, very common in Palestine; yet Arab. butm is applied to Pistacia terebinthus.\nPlane tree, Hebrew armon (Genesis 30:37; Ezekiel 31:8; A. V. \"chestnut tree\"; Sirach 24:19). Platanus orientalis, found throughout the East, fulfills well the condition implied in the Heb. name (\"peeled\"), as the outer layers of its bark peel off. A. V. translation is erroneous, for the chestnut tree does not flourish either in Mesopotamia or Palestine.\nPomegranate, the fruit of Punica granatum, a great favourite in the Orient, and very plentiful in Palestine, hence the many allusions to it in the Bible. Pomegranates were frequently taken as a model of ornamentation; several places of the Holy Land were named after the tree (Heb., rimmon): Rimmon, Geth-Remmon, En-Rimmon, etc.\nPoplar, Hebrew libneh (Genesis 30:37; Hosea 4:13). Arab. lubna, Styrax officinalis, certainly identified with the tree from the inner layer of whose bark the officinal storax is obtained.\nPoppy. See Gall.\nPulse renders two Heb. words: (1) qali occurs twice in 2 Samuel 17:28, and is translated by \"parched corn\" and \"pulse\"; the allusion is to cereals, the seeds of peas, beans, lentils, and the like, which, in the East, are roasted in the oven or toasted over the fire; (2) zero\u2018im, zero\u2018nim (Daniel 1:12-16) refer to no special plants, but possibly to all edible summer vegetables.\nReed, a general word translating several Hebrew names of plants: \u2019agmon, gome, s\u00fbph (see Bulrush) and qaneh (see Calamus).\nRest-harrow. See Briers.\nRock-rose. See Ladanum.\nRose. (1) Hebrew khabba\u00e7\u00e7eleth (A. V., Song of Songs 2:1; Isaiah 35:1) is probably the narcissus (see Flower of the Field). (2) Wis., ii, 8, seems to indicate the ordinary rose, though roses were known in Egypt only at the epoch of the Ptolemies. (3) The rose plant mentioned in Sirach 24:18; 39:17, is rather the oleander, Nerium oleander, very abundant around Jericho, where it is doubtful whether roses ever flourished except in gardens, although seven different species of the genus Rosa grow in Palestine.\nRue (Luke 11:42), probably Ruta chalepensis, slightly different from R. graveolens, the officinal one. St. Luke implies that Pharisees regarded the rue as subject to tithe, although it was not mentioned in the Law among tithable things (Leviticus 27:30; Numbers 18:21; Deuteronomy 14:22). This opinion of some overstrict Rabbis did not prevail in the course of time, and the Talmud (Shebiith, ix, 1) distinctly excepts the rue from tithe.\nRush (Job 8:11). See Bulrush.\nSaffron, Hebrew karkom (Canticles 4:14), cf. Arab. kurkum, a fragrant plant, Crocus sativus, grown in the East and in Europe for seasoning dishes, bread, etc.\nSandal-wood. See Algum.\nSea-purslain. See Mallows.\nSedge, Hebrew suph (D.V., Exodus 2:3), a generic name for rush. See Bulrush.\nSedge-bush, Heb. \u2019akhu (Douay Version, Job 8:11; Genesis 41:2, 18; \"marshy places\"; A. V., \"meadow\") probably designates all kinds of green plants living in marshes (cf. Egypt. akhah), in particular Cyperus esculentus. See Flag.\nSetim wood, the gum arabic tree, Acacia Seyal, Del., which abounds in the oasis of the Sinaitic Peninsula and in the sultry Wadys about the Dead Sea. The wood is light, though hard and close-grained, of a fine orange-brown hue darkening with age, and was reputed incorruptible.\nShrub, Hebrew na\u2019a\u00e7u\u00e7 (Douay Version, Isaiah 7:19; 55:13), a particular kind of shrub, probably some jujube tree, either Zizyphus vulgaris, Lamentations, or Z. spina-christi, Willd.\nSloe. See Bur.\nSmut. See Mildew.\nSoap. See Borith.\nSodom, Vine of (Deuteronomy 32:32). See Vine.\nSpear-mint. See Mint.\nSpelt, A.V. and R.V. for kussemeth (Ezekiel 4:9). See Fitches. R.V. for qe\u00e7akh (Exodus 9:32; Isaiah 28:25). See Gith.\nSpices translates three Heb. words: (1) sammum, a generic word including galbanum onycha, the operculum of a strombus, and stacte; (2) basam, another generic term under which come myrrh, cinnamon, sweet cane, and cassia; (3) noko \u2019oth, possibly the same substance as Arab. noka\u2019ath. See Astragalus.\nSpices, Aromatical (2 Kings 20:13; Isaiah 39:2), a mistranslation for \"precious things\". See Astragalus.\nSpikenard (A. V. Song of Songs 1:11-12; 4:14; Mark 14:3; John 12:3), a fragrant essential oil obtained from the root of Nardostachys jatamansi, D. C., a small herbaceous plant of the Himalayas, which is exported all over the East, and was known even to the Romans; the perfume obtained from it was very expensive.\nStacte translates four Heb. words: (1) nataph (Exodus 30:34), a fragrant gum identified with the storax (see Poplar), and with myrrh in drops or tears; (2) ahaloth (Douay Version, Psalm 44:9: \"aloes\"; (3) lot (Genesis 37:25; 43:11), see Ladanum; (4) qiddah (Ezekiel 27:19), see Cassia..\nStorax. (1) Genesis 43:11: see Astragalus; (2) Ecclesiasticus 24:21: see Poplar; Stacte (1).\nSweet cane. See Cane.\nSycamine (A. V., Luke 17:6; D. V. \"mulberry tree\"). As St. Luke distinguishes suk\u00e1minos (here) from sukomor\u00e9a (xix, 4), they probably differ; sukaminos is admitted by scholars to be the black mulberry, Morus nigra.\nSycamore or Sycomore, Hebrew shiqmim or shiqmoth (1 Kings 10:27; Psalm 77:47, \"mulberry\"; Isaiah 9:10; A. V. Amos 7:14), not the tree commonly called by that name, Acer pseudo-platanus, but Ficus sycomorus, formerly more plentiful in Palestine.\nTamarisk, Hebrew \u2019eshel (Genesis 21:33; \"grove\"; 1 Samuel 22:6; 31:13; D.V. \"wood\", A.V. \"tree\"), Arab. \u2019athl, a tree of which eight or nine species grow in Palestine.\nTeil tree (A.V., Isaiah 6:13), a mistranslation of Hebrew \u2019elah, which is probably the terebinth.\nTerebinth (Douay Version, Isaiah 6:13), Pistacia terebinthus, the turpentine tree, for Hebrew \u2019ayl, \u2019elah, \u2019elon (see Oak); it grows in dry localities of south and eastern Palestine where the oak cannot thrive. The turpentine, different from that of the pine trees, is a kind of pleasant-smelling oil, obtained by making incisions in the bark, and is widely used in the East to flavour wine, sweet-meats, etc.\nThistles, or numerous prickly plants, are one of the special features of the flora of the Holy Land; hence they are designated by various Hebrew words, inconsistently translated by the versions, where guess-work seems occasionally to have been employed although the general meaning is certain: (1) barqanim, see Briers; (2) dardar, Arab. shaukat ed-dardar, possibly Centaureas, star-thistles and knapweeds; (3) khedeq, see Mad-apple; (4) khoakh (see Bur), a plant, which grows amidst ruins (Isaiah 24:13), in fallow-lands (Hosea 9:6), with lilies (Cant., ii, 2), and in fallow fields where it is harmful to corn (Job 31:40), all which features suit well the various kinds of thistles (Carduus pycnocephalus, C. argentatus, Circium lanceolatum, C. arvense, Attractilis comosa, Carthamus oxyacantha, Scolymus maculatus), most abundant in Palestine; (5) sirim, the various star-thistles, or perhaps the thorny burnet, plentiful in ruins; (6) sirpal, from the Greek rendering, probably the elecampane, Inula viscosa, common on the hills of the Holy Land; (7) qimmeshonim, see Nettles; (8) shayith and (9) shamir, see Briers.\nThorns, used in the English Bibles to designate plants like thistles, also includes thorny plants, such as (1) \u2019atal, see Bramble; (2) mesukah, the general name given to a hedge of any kind of thorny shrubs; (3) na\u2019a\u00e7u\u00e7, see Shrub; (4) sill\u00f4n (cf. Arab. sula), some kind of strong thorns; (5) sarabhim, tangled thorns forming thickets impossible to clear; (6) \u00e7innim, an unidentified thorny plant; (7) qo\u00e7, a generic word for thorny bushes; (8) sikkim (cf. Arab. shauk), also a generic name.\nThyine wood, probably Thuya articulata, Desf., especially in Apocalypse 18:12. See Algum.\nTurpentine tree. See Terebinth.\nVetches (D. V., Isaiah 28:25). See Fitches.\nVine, the ordinary grape-vine, Vitis vinifera, of which many varieties are cultivated and thrive in the Holy Land. In Old Testament times vine and wine were so important and popular that in it they are constantly mentioned and alluded to, and a relatively large vocabulary was devoted to expressing varieties of plants and produce. In Ezekiel 15:6, Hebrew \u00e7af\u00e7afah is rendered \"vine\", see Willow.\nVine of Sodom (Deuteronomy 32:32), possibly the well known shrub, \"Apple of Sodom\", Calotropis procera, Willd., which peculiar plant grows round the Dead Sea and produces a fruit of the size of an apple, and \"fair to behold\", which bursts when touched and contains only white silky tufts and small seeds, \"dust and ashes\" (Josephus).\nWalnut. See Nut.\nWater-mint. See Mint.\nWheat, from Hebrew bar and dagan, also translated \"corn\" and applicable to all cereals, is properly in Hebrew khittah (cf. Arab. khintah), of which two varieties are especially cultivated in Palestine: Triticum \u00e6stivum, summer wheat, and T. hybernum, winter wheat; the harvest takes place from May (Gh\u00f4r) to June (highlands). Corn is threshed by cattle or pressed out with a sledge, and winnowed with a shovel, by throwing the grain against the wind on threshing floors upon breezy hills.\nWheel (Psalm 82:14) probably refers to some kind of Centaurea, as does \"whirlwind\" (Isaiah 17:13).\nWillow. (1) Hebrew \u00e7af\u00e7afah (A. V., Ezekiel 17:5; D. V., \"vine\"), Arab. safsaf, probably willow though some prefer El\u00e6gnus khortensis, Marsh., from Arab. zaizafun. (2) Hebrew \u2019arabim (Leviticus 23:40; Job 40:17; Psalm 136:2; Isaiah 44:4), like Arab. gharab, hence the willow. \u2019Arabim, used only in the plur., probably designates all willows in general (Salix safsaf, S. alba, S. Fragilis, S. babylonica, or weeping willow, are frequent in the Palestinian Wadys), whereas \u00e7af\u00e7afah may point out some particular species possibly the weeping willow.\nWormwood, Hebrew la\u2019anah (Revelation 8:11), plants of the genus Artemisia, several species of which (A. monosperma, Del., A. herba-alba, Asso., A. judaica, A. annua, A. arborescens) are common in Palestine, notably on tablelands and in deserts. The characteristic bitterness of the Artemisias, coupled with their usual dreariness of habitat, aptly typified for Eastern minds calamity, injustice, and the evil results of sin.\nBALFOUR, The Plants of the Bible (London, 1885); BONAVIA, The Flora of the Assyrian Monuments and its Outcomes (Westminster, 1894); DUNS, Biblical Natural Science, being the expl. of all references in Holy Scripture to geology, botany, etc. (London, 1863-5);GROSER, The Trees and Plants mentioned in the Bible (London, 1895); HOOKER AND TRISTRAM, Plants of the Bible, with the chief allusions collected and explained in Aids to the Student of the Holy Bible (London); KNIGHT, Bible Plants and Animals (London, 1889); POST, Flora of Syria, Palestine and Sinai, from the Taurus to the Ras Muhammad, and from the Mediterranean Sea to the Syrian desert (Beirut, 1896); SMITH, Bible Plants, their history, with a review of the opinions of various writers regarding their identification (London, 1878); TRISTRAM, The Natural History of the Bible (London, 1889); IDEM, The Fauna and Flora of Palestine (London, 1884); ZELLER, Wild Flowers of the Holy Land (London, 1876); BOISSIER, Flora Orientalis (Bale and Geneva, 1867-88); CELSIUS, Hierobotanicon, sive de plantis Sacr\u00e6 Scriptur\u00e6 dissertationes breves (Upsala, 1745- 7); FORSKAL, Flora \u00c6gyptico- Arabica (Copenhagen, 1776); HILLER, Hierophyticon, sive Commentarius in loca Scriptur\u00e6 Sacr\u00e6 qu\u00e6 plantarum faciunt mentionem (Treves, 1725); LEMNIUS, Similitudinum ac parabolarum, qu\u00e6 in Bibliis ex herbis desumuntur, dilucida explicatio (Frankfort, 1626); LINNE, Flora Palestin\u00e6 (Upsala, 1756); URSINUS, Arboretum biblicum (Nuremberg, 1699); IDEM, Arboreti biblici continuatio (Nuremberg, 1699); CULTRERA, Botanique biblique (Geneva, 1861); FILLION, Atlas d'histoire naturelle de la Bible (Paris, 1884); GANDOGER, Plantes de Jud\u00e9e in Bulletin de la Societ\u00e9 botanique de France, XXXIII, XXXV, XXXVI (Paris); IDEM, articles on several plants in VIGOUROUX, Dictionnaire de la Bible (Paris, 1895\u2014); HAMILTON, La botanique de la Bible (Nice, 1871); LEVESQUE, articles on various plants in VIG., Dict.

        "title": "CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Use of York",
        "raw_content": "Home > Catholic Encyclopedia > Y > Use of York\nIt was a received principle in medieval canon law that while as regards judicial matters, as regards the sacraments, and also the more solemn fasts, the custom of the Roman Church was to be adhered to; still in the matter of church services (divinis officiis) each Church kept to its own traditions (see the Decretum Gratiani, c. iv., d. 12). In this way there came into existence a number of \"Uses\", by which word were denoted the special liturgical customs which prevailed in a particular diocese or group of dioceses: speaking of England before the Reformation, in the south and in the midlands, the ceremonial was regulated by the Sarum Use, but in the greater part of the north the Use of York prevailed. The general features of these medieval English Uses are fairly represented by the peculiarities of the Sarum Rite and the reader is advised to consult that article, but certain details special to York may be noted here.\nBeginning with the celebration of Mass, we observe that in the reading of the Gospel the priest blessed the deacon with these words; \"May the Lord open thy mouth to read and our ears to understand God's holy Gospel of peace,\" etc., whereupon the deacon answered:\nGive, O Lord, a proper and well-sounding speech to my lips that my words may please Thee and may profit all who hear them for Thy name's sake unto eternal life. Amen.\nMoreover, at the end of the Gospel the priest said secretly: \"Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord\". Again while reproducing in general the features of the Sarum offertory, the York Use required the priest to wash his hands twice, once before touching the host at all and again apparently after using the incense, while at the later washing the priest said the hymn \"Veni Creator Spiritus\". Also, in answer to the appeal \"Orate fratres et sorores\", the choir replied by repeating in a low voice the first three verses of Psalm xix, \"Exaudiat te Dominus\", etc. By another noteworthy departure from the Sarum custom, the priest in giving the kiss of peace at York said, not \"Pax tibi et ecclesiae\" (Peace to thee and the Church), but \"Habete vinculum\", etc. (Retain ye the bond of charity and peace that ye may be fit for the sacred mysteries of God). There were also differences in the prayers which immediately preceded the Communion, while the formulae used in the actual reception of the Blessed Sacrament by the priest were again peculiar to York. It may further be noticed that the number of Sequences, some of them of very indifferent quality, retained in the York Missal, considerably exceeded that of the Sequences printed in the Sarum book. A list is given by Mr. Frere in the \"Jour. Theol. Stud.\", II, 583. Some metrical compositions, bearing a curious resemblance to the Carmelite \"O Flos Carmeli\", figure among the offertories. (See Frere, loc. Cit., 585.)\nTurning to the Breviary, York employed a larger number of proper hymns than Sarum. There were also in every office a number of minor variations from the practice both of Sarum and of Rome. For example a careful comparison of the psalms, antiphons, responsories, lessons, etc. prescribed respectively by Rome, Sarum, and York for such a festival as that of St. Lawrence reveals a general and often close resemblance but with many slight divergences. Thus in the first Vespers the psalms used both at York and Sarum were the ferial psalms (as against the Roman usage), but York retained also the ferial antiphons while Sarum had proper antiphons. So the capitulum was the same but the responsory following was different, and so on. Again the psalms, antiphons, and responsories at Matins were substantially the same, but they do not always occur in quite the same order. Both at York and Sarum the first six lessons were taken from the legend of the saint and yet they were differently worded and arranged. The most singular feature, and one common to both Sarum and York on this and one or two other festivals (notably that of the Conversion of St. Paul and the Feast of the Holy Trinity), was the use of antiphons with versicles attached to each. This feature is called in the Aurea Legenda \"regressio antiphonarum\" and in Caxton's translation \"the reprysyng of the anthemys\". The contents of the manual and the remaining service-books show other distinctive peculiarities. For example the form of troth-plighting in the York marriage-service runs as follows (we modernize the spelling):\nHere I take thee N. to my wedded wife, to have and to hold at bed and at board, for fairer for fouler, for better for worse, in sickness and in health, till death us do part and thereto I plight thee my troth; in which may be specially noticed the absence of the words if the holy Church it will ordain,\nfound in the Sarum Rite and still represented in the English Catholic marriage service. Again in the delivery of the ring, the bridegroom at York said:\nWith this ring I wed thee, and with this gold and silver I honour thee, and with this gift I dowe thee,\nwhere again one misses the familiar \"with my body I thee worship\" retained in both the Catholic and Protestant marriage service of England. Also the York rubric prescribes\nHere let the priest ask the woman's dowry and if land be given her for her dowry then let her fall at the feet of her husband.\nThis feature is entirely lacking in all but one or two of the Sarum books. The only other York peculiarity that seems to call for special notice is the mention of the Blessed Virgin in the form for the administration of extreme unction, viz.\nPer istam sanctam unctionem et suam piissimam misericordiam et per intercessionem beatae Mariae Virginis et omnium Sanctorum, indulgeat tibi Dominus quidquid peccastic per visum. Amen.\nNaturally York had also its special calendar and special feasts. They are set out at length in Dr. Henderson's edition of the York Missal (pp. 259 sqq. And especially p. 271). We will only note here the circumstance that the Visitation was kept at York on 2 April, a date which seems to agree better with the Gospel narrative than our present 2 July. As for the colours of vestments, York is said to have used white for Christmas, Easter, Palm Sunday, and probably for Whitsuntide, as well as on feasts of the Blessed Virgin, while black was used for Good Friday and blue for Advent and Septuagesima, etc. (see St. John Hope in \"Trans. T. Paul's Eccles. Society\", II, 268, and cf. I, 125) but it is very doubtful whether these data regarding colours can be trusted.\nThe series of York liturgical books have all been printed for the Surtees Society of Durham, the Missal in 1874, the Manual and Processional in 1875, the Pontifical in 1873, all these being edited by HENDERSON. The Breviary edited by LAWLEY appeared in two volumes in 1880-82. Much information may be derived from the prefaces and notes in these volumes. See also MASKELL, Ancient Liturgy of the Church of England (3rd ed., Oxford, 1882), in which the text of the Ordinary and Cannon of the Mass as observed at Sarum, York, Hereford, and Bangor are printed in parallel volumes and contrasted with the text of the Roman Missal. Some account of \"the newly found York Gradual\" is given by FRERE, in Jour. Of Theol. Stud., II, 575-86 (1901). Compare further the introductions to the three volumes of MASKELL, Monumenta Ritualia (Oxford, 1882), and the notes to SIMMONS, Lay Folks Mass Book, in Early Eng. Text Society (London, 1878).\nAPA citation. Thurston, H. (1912). Use of York. In The Catholic Encyclopedia.

        "raw_content": "Waiting can be very difficult to do. In the fast-paced world in which we live, we are hurried through life most of the time. We are prone to take matters into our own hands and at times our lives become the result of many decisions that God had never intended for us. Here lies the test of what it means to wait on God. Waiting necessitates the passage of time for most everything in our lives. How we use the time waiting is crucial in hearing God's voice. Waiting means being focused on who God is and what God is doing. Why is it so hard to wait? Part of the answer is hidden in our fallen nature, where we are so prone to take matters into our own hands. We follow our own schemes in masterminding our lives, plotting, and planning. In a society where we are accustomed to immediate gratification, waiting can be a frustrating experience. However, the remedy for our dilemma is understanding that waiting involves resting in God's timing. As a result the benefits of waiting on the Lord are many. Being content in ever circumstance, getting along with humble means, and in prosperity.\nDo you find yourself unable to wait for almost anything? This is a fault that can be remedied when we learn to rest in God's timing. Does the passage of time make you feel like you have wasted that time, or do you see it as an opportunity for God to speak? Waiting can bring excitement and anticipation of God's blessing. As the psalmist says, \u201cbut those who wait in the Lord will inherit the land.\u201d (Psalm 37: 9)",

In his column for the Birmingham News, John Archibald noted Hall\u2019s legacy as one of concern for children over all other considerations:\n\u201cAs a 7-year-old she came to live with relatives in North Birmingham so she could get schooling unavailable to her in rural Madison County. She remembers teachers who made students read with inflection, who seemed harsh but pushed her to excel long into life.\nSo it hurts when she sees students who can\u2019t expect the same learning she got in Birmingham 75 years ago.\n\u2018It\u2019s just sad,\u2019 Hall said. And it\u2019s made sadder because too many people run for school boards with no notion of what that job is about. They don\u2019t read, she said. They don\u2019t study. They don\u2019t prepare. . . .\u2019\nAnd that ought to be Hall\u2019s legacy, I think. Serving on a school board should be an honor and responsibility, but not a stepping stone.\u201d\nArnold\u2019s endorsement of Dr. Hall\u2019s focus on the children is an important reminder of the commitment anyone working in the field of education should have. It also underscores the current malaise affecting many school systems, which fail to provide the quality of education Dr. Hall experienced as a child many years ago.\nAlso in the Birmingham News, Jeremy Gray recalled Hall\u2019s career in an article on her appearance at the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute on September 30, where a reception in her honor was held.\nAnd The Talladega Daily Home called Hall a \u201cliving legend\u201d and her memoir \u201ca touching testimony of dedication and courage.\u201d\nThe attention given by these newspapers to Dr. Hall is evidence of her remarkable reputation and record as an advocate for children and for excellence at all levels of education in the state, a story which is told more fully in her book.\nMy Journey is available from NewSouth Books, Amazon.com or your favorite online or retail book seller.\nPosted in Ethel Hall | No Comments \u00bb\nYou are currently browsing the archives for the Ethel Hall category.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Political News / Politics / Evelyn Rodriguez, Mother of Girl Killed by MS-13, Remembered for Her Guts and Courage\nEvelyn Rodriguez, Mother of Girl Killed by MS-13, Remembered for Her Guts and Courage\nA day later on Long Island, the cruel symmetry of tragedy was still too much for family, friends and officials to comprehend.\nEvelyn Rodriguez, a fierce wisp of a mother who had gone to Washington and spoken privately with President Trump about MS-13, the transnational gang that killed her daughter Kayla Cuevas and a friend, Nisa Mickens, with a machete in September 2016, had dedicated her life to her daughter\u2019s memory.\nOn Friday afternoon, two years almost to the date, she died fighting for her memory.\nMs. Rodriguez, 50, was run over by a car in Brentwood, Long Island, at the scene of a memorial for her daughter, the police said. Ms. Rodriguez and Kayla\u2019s father, Freddy Cuevas, had been in a dispute with the driver about a shrine she had put up.\nThe police on Saturday had not filed charges and would only say an investigation was continuing. They definitively ruled out any connection between MS-13 and Ms. Rodriguez\u2019s death.\n\u201cIt\u2019s beyond grief,\u201d said Congressman Peter T. King, a Republican representing Brentwood who had become close with Ms. Rodriguez. \u201cI can\u2019t imagine a more horrific death for a child than being macheted to death and a more horrific death of an adult than being crushed by a vehicle.\u201d\nBarbara Medina, Ms. Rodriguez\u2019s closest friend, was not there when Ms. Rodriguez was struck by the car, but said she had spoken with Mr. Cuevas, the longtime partner of Ms. Rodriguez, who gave an account of what happened.\n\u201cThey had set up a shrine for Kayla\u2019s second anniversary,\u201d Ms. Medina said. \u201cWhen they returned, the shrine was gone, the balloon had popped, as well as Kayla\u2019s picture, everything was gone.\u201d\nBoth Ms. Rodriguez and Mr. Cuevas were seen on footage recorded on Friday by News 12, a local television outlet, confronting the driver of a white S.U.V. \u2014 apparently about the disassembled shrine \u2014 about 90 minutes before the memorial was to begin. The police said the driver was related to a homeowner on the block.\nAs seen in the video, Mr. Cuevas waved his arms angrily and started walking to the back of the vehicle while Ms. Rodriguez stayed to the driver\u2019s side. It was then, according to Ms. Medina, that the driver accelerated.\n\u201cShe hit her, ran over her twice,\u201d Ms. Medina said. \u201cThis was just senseless.\u201d\nThe driver stayed to call 911, the police said.\nThe Suffolk County Police Department said on Friday that there had been a dispute over the placement of the memorial but would not comment further on the specifics of the events.\n\u201cShe meant everything to me,\u201d Mr. Cuevas said in a brief interview in which he was inconsolable except to praise Ms. Rodriguez\u2019s strength and encouragement.\nArrangements were made for a wake on Thursday in Brentwood at the same funeral home that buried Kayla.\nAs tributes poured in from Mr. Trump on Twitter, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo in a statement and from other leaders, it was clear that in her life, Ms. Rodriguez united people with her undeniable will. No mother, she said, should have to go through what she did.\nMs. Rodriguez grew up in the Bronx and in Puerto Rico; her public stance against illegal immigration, she said, was against criminals coming into the country and enrolling in schools.\n\u201cThere was never a hint that she was blaming anyone political,\u201d Mr. King said.\nMs. Rodriguez focused her message to Mr. Trump on getting more money for schools for gang-prevention programs and on safety measures there. She had sued the Brentwood school district for negligence in Kayla\u2019s death and her dispute with an MS-13 gang member that the authorities said began at school.\nMs. Rodriguez had attended the State of the Union in January as a guest of the first lady, Melania Trump, along with the parents of Nisa.\nIn May, she worked with Mr. King to have Mr. Trump appear at a round-table discussion in Long Island. She helped arrange the attendance of the undocumented family members of four young Latino men who were also killed by MS-13.\n\u201cI never met anyone with more guts and more courage and never felt sorry for herself,\u201d Mr. King said. \u201cShe never ever said, \u2018Why is this happening to me?\u2019 She always wanted to protect other people.\u201d\nMr. King said he was on his way to the vigil when he found out she had died. When he got there, Mr. King said, streams of people were coming down the street unaware of what had happened. As word soon spread, people\u2019s faces went blank, Mr. King said: \u201cIt was almost like, \u2018What\u2019s going to happen next to this community?\u2019\u201d\nLast summer, as Ms. Rodriguez prepared to see President Trump for the first time at a speech before law enforcement officers on Long Island, she spoke of her activism.\nHer words read like an epitaph.\n\u201cThere are days where you feel like you want your world to end, just like your child\u2019s,\u201d Ms. Rodriguez said. \u201cThen you realize you have a new purpose: to fight, so that your child\u2019s death is not in vain.\u201d\nEvelyn Rodriguez, Mother of Girl Killed by MS-13, Remembered for Her Guts and Courage Reviewed by Admin on September 15, 2018 Rating: 5",

        "raw_content": "Jadeveon Clowney had microfracture knee surgery\nJadeveon Clowney's disappointing rookie season could remain frustrating deep into 2015.\nThe Houston Texans pass rusher underwent microfracture knee surgery Monday, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per a source close to the player.\nThe hope is that he'll be ready to start the 2015 season and that he should make a full recovery. Still, the possibility of missing the beginning of next season is a jarring reality after he was limited to four games and seven tackles after being taken with the No. 1 overall pick in May.\nESPN first reported the news.\nRapoport reports that Clowney suffered cartilage damage in addition to his recent torn meniscus. The team knew that microfracture surgery was a possibility, and it turned out a simple \"cleanup\" surgery would not suffice. Clowney also played through a knee injury in his final year of college, and this surgery helps explain his struggles to fight through the injury.\n\"I do want to say that this guy has worked extremely hard to recover from injuries,\" coach Bill O'Brien said two weeks ago. \"And I want to be real clear with this (about) him, as it relates to us here, to the Houston Texans: We think very highly of him. We know that he's going to be a really good player. And he's been unlucky.\n\"I don't really care about what anybody thinks about what I say in that realm of being unlucky or lucky. I'm just telling you he's had a sports hernia, he's had a concussion and now he's dealing with a knee injury and those things are not easy in your rookie year. And he's in there every day working extremely hard to get better.\"\nClowney has been unlucky, and so have the Texans. This much we know: If he underwent microfracture surgery before the NFL draft, there's no way he would have been taken with the No. 1 overall pick.",

I've never had trouble getting employment in this league, and I'm not going to start worrying about it now,\" Fox said Monday, via the Chicago Sun Times.\nThe Bears are 14-33 (.298 winning percentage) under Fox. At 5-10, Chicago clinched its third straight season with double-digit losses with the coach at the helm.\nNFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport has reported for weeks that Fox and his staff believed they'll be fired after the season.\n\"It's not my first rodeo, you know,\" Fox said. \"I've been doing this for [29] years and [16] as a head coach, so this is par for the course in this league. I think there's a lot of different speculation every year, and this year is no different.\"\nThe 62-year-old had a similar dead-man-walking season in his final year in Carolina, in 2010. Fox's last year in Denver came after a 12-4 campaign, but another playoff loss, with the sides parting ways after the 2014 season.\nPart of the insulated veteran coaching circle, Fox immediately received coaching jobs each of the previous two times he was let go. Perhaps the NFL's penchant for recycling bland coaches has Fox confident he can land a new job. The longtime leadman needs only to convince one owner that his career .522 record is more indicative of success than his terrible stint with a rebuilding Chicago squad.\n\"Has it been easy? I'd say no,\" Fox said when asked if the Bears were a bigger rebuild than he anticipated when signing. \"We've gone from the oldest roster in football to one of the younger ones. We've got a good, young, talented roster. We still have holes. But at least, to me, we're on a level playing field now.\"\nCome next week that leveled-out squad likely will be someone else's to lead. The bigger question for Bears fans heading into January is whether GM Ryan Pace will be the man hiring the next coach or if the team's ownership will sweep out the entire crew and start over again.",

        "raw_content": "LIZ BURI / BTEC level 5 Dip SRMT NLSSM\nI spent 10 years as a Pilates/Gyrotonic instructor and personal trainer when I desperately needed a change of scene. I understood the power of touch was important, this was very evident when I would use tactile cues to help my clients learn about their bodies and their movement. Later on, while dealing with my own shoulder injury, I realized that training my muscles and having basic massage wasn't enough in making a full recovery. There had to be more. I began with attending short manual therapy workshops but found my knowledge of soft tissue was insufficient. Because of this, I couldn't grasp the methods, felt lost and intimidated by manual therapy.\nI had the opportunity to spend a year in London so I decided to try and do a more extensive massage course. Malaysia is filled with a plethora of massage styles, so a general massage course wasn't going to cut it in my books. Unfortunately (or not!), ALL the universities and colleges in London that I visited required a full year of basic massage before one could even think of exploring other styles. Looking at their syllabus, this was not only one year I didn't have but it sounded as basic as all the movement therapy courses I've done before. I didn't want to waste my time.\nThat's when I stumbled upon the NLSSM website. Soon after, I had a meeting with Susan Findlay, who, if you don't know yet, is the heart and soul of NLSSM. After our chat, I felt ready and comfortable enough to take the plunge into NLSSM and their sports and remedial massage therapy. No basic massage background needed! Phew!\nTraining with NLSSM was challenging, I am not going to lie, but I am STILL, to this day, reaping the benefits of everything I learned from attending the diploma course. The theoretical classes were in depth while the practical classes were accessible, creating the perfect balance of knowledge and hands on. Each teacher brought a different perspective and persona, which was wonderful because it gave me confidence. Susan and her team made me feel that no matter the background, size, age, capability and challenges, we can all be great massage therapists if we put our minds to it.\nBefore I left the UK in 2014 to return to Southeast Asia, I made it a must to join the numerous CPD courses held in NLSSM, which gave me a view on other modalities under the manual therapy umbrella. One that caught my attention was the myofascial release technique, CORE Bodywork, by the wonderfully kooky yet highly interesting Noah Karrasch. Since this technique is unknown here, I would offer unique massage with hints of CORE in each session. The response was fantastic! I am now fully on this fascinating path, bringing a combination of my Sport & Remedial Massage along with Noah's work to this side the world. The future is looking quite exciting!\nI know for a fact that this journey wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for my time in NLSSM. I wouldn't have understood the anatomy as well, I would have still been too intimidated to experiment and explore the world of massage. And I wouldn't have met the ever passionate Susan Findlay! Her enthusiasm and drive is addictive! Everything I learned has helped me grow in my career. You may think this dramatic, but NLSSM changed my life. Period.",

        "raw_content": "Malloy announces partnership to protect CT students with lifesaving violence protection programs\nHARTFORD, CT - Governor Dannel P. Malloy on Thursday announced that the Connecticut Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security (DEMHS) is partnering with Sandy Hook Promise (SHP) to help train students, educators, and school administrators how to identify, assess, intervene, and get help for those exhibiting at-risk behaviors through its Start With Hello, Say Something, and SOS Signs of Suicide programs. Through the federal STOP School Violence Act, Connecticut is receiving $500,000 to operate the programs, which will allow SHP and DEMHS to train over 116,000 students across the state.\n\u201cToday\u2019s announcement is a crucial step in Connecticut\u2019s efforts to prevent school violence,\u201d said Governor Malloy. \u201cWe have made real progress since the tragedy at Sandy Hook \u2013 from passing some of the toughest gun safety laws in the country, to allocating more than $50 million toward improving school security \u2013 and Connecticut students are safer for those efforts. Sandy Hook Promise has been an invaluable ally in those endeavors, and this new partnership will train students to help prevent further tragedies.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m proud of this new initiative between the state and Sandy Hook Promise to help prevent violence in our schools,\u201d said Lt. Governor Nancy Wyman. \u201cThe education and training of our students and educators is vital in stopping violence before in begins. I applaud DEMHS and Sandy Hook Promise for their continued efforts to keep our children safe in their classrooms.\u201d\n\u201cWe are proud to continue our work in our home state by working with the Connecticut Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security to help keep Connecticut\u2019s students safe by training them how to spot and report at-risk behaviors before violence occurs, as well as how to create an inclusive and connected community,\u201d said Mark Barden, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Sandy Hook Promise and father of Daniel, who was killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy. \u201cWe know we can prevent violence through proven programs like our Know the Signs programs, and I am proud that we are able to train and protect more students across Connecticut.\u201d\n\u201cThis funding under the STOP School Violence Act will save lives and help stop school violence before it starts,\u201d said Senators Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy in a joint statement. \u201cWhen we give teachers and students the resources needed to identify warning signs and at-risk behavior, our schools are safer. This funding is an essential step to enhance school safety, but we must continue to pursue common sense gun violence prevention measures to protect our children from the scourge of gun violence. Thanks to Mark, Nicole, and everyone at Sandy Hook Promise for their advocacy on this issue.\u201d\nThe Start With Hello, Say Something, and SOS Signs of Suicide programs are three of four programs under SHP\u2019s Know the Signs programs. Start With Hello trains students to be more socially inclusive and connected to one another, while Say Something trains students how to recognize signs, especially in social media, of an individual who may be a threat to themselves or others and how to say something to a trusted adult. The SOS Signs of Suicide program teaches students, educators, and school administrators how to spot the warning signs of youth suicide and how to intervene before self-harm occurs.\nTo date, Sandy Hook Promise has trained over 3.5 million youth and adults in at least one of its Know the Signs programs in all 50 states and have helped avert multiple school shooting plots, numerous teen suicides, as well as other acts of violence and self-harm.\n\u201cWith so many reactive methods being discussed in regard to school safety, we are so pleased to have this opportunity to work closely with Sandy Hook Promise through the STOP School Violence Act to teach our students and educators proven prevention methods that will help keep our schools safe,\u201d said Connecticut Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection Commissioner Dora Schriro.\n\u201cOver the last several years under the strong leadership of Governor Malloy, Connecticut has become a national leader in reducing gun violence and improving security within our schools,\u201d said Connecticut State Department of Education Commissioner Dianna R. Wentzell. \u201cBy securing this federal grant and partnering with Sandy Hook Promise to provide training to students, teachers, and administrators, Connecticut is taking one more important step toward keeping students safe without turning our schools into fortresses or arming teachers in our classrooms.\u201d\nThe STOP School Violence Act was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives before the tragedy at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School to build-off of the research and lessons learned from Sandy Hook and other tragic shootings, and scale proven, evidence-based early intervention programming to schools across the country to prevent future school shootings, suicides, and other forms of school violence. It was passed and signed into law in March as part of the FY2018 omnibus funding bill. Sandy Hook Promise proudly worked with Republicans and Democrats to write and pass this legislation.",

        "raw_content": "How NYU Mental Health Professionals Care for Immigrants\u2014and Themselves\nSpyros D. Orfanos, director of the clinic at NYU\u2019s Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, has recruited students, faculty, and graduates to provide treatment and forensic evaluations for immigrants facing deportation\nBefore President Trump began implementing immigration policies that, among other things, limited the number of refugees accepted into the United States and changed the way immigrant families were treated at the border\u2014before he had been inaugurated, in fact\u2014Spyros D. Orfanos (\u201978 MA,\u201986 PhD), director of the postdoctoral clinic at NYU\u2019s Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, knew he wanted to do something to help the people who would be most affected in the New York metropolitan area.\nThe program has long made its services available to a diverse array of clients who cannot afford market-rate therapies. And in 2017, Orfanos expanded the clinic\u2019s pro bono focus by partnering with organizations that help immigrants facing deportation, including NYU School of Law\u2019s Immigrant Rights Clinic, Physicians for Human Rights, and others.\n\u201cThe way I put it to my colleagues is that I was simmering, simmering, simmering until I came to a boil,\u201d he explains.\nOrfanos organized a team of students, faculty, and alumni to assist immigrants with their legal cases and to provide treatment for the psychological trauma they have endured in their countries of origin and in the United States (which has included, under the Trump Administration, the separation of children and families at the border).\nSince his initiative\u2014the Immigration and Human Rights Work Group\u2014began in 2017, Orfanos and his team of clinicians have handled 25 cases. They hope to scale up to between 50 and 100 cases in the coming year. Toward that end, Orfanos and Physicians for Human Rights held a daylong training for about 100 interested volunteers affiliated with NYU\u2019s doctoral program in October. The curriculum\u2014normally geared toward medical doctors\u2014was adjusted for Orfanos\u2019s team.\n\u201cAn internist has to learn about trauma,\u201d he says. \u201cOur people are writing the books on trauma. We need to know something about how to explain trauma to the lawyers.\u201d\nIn an interview with NYU News, Orfanos shared his personal connection to immigration issues and offered insights on the care that his team provides\u2014and needs in return.\nHow did you get interested in immigrants\u2019 rights?\nI grew up in a family where I lived amongst a lot of undocumented immigrants. They left Greece because of the severe economic difficulties and also the civil war. When I grew up in the \u201960s, I worked in the family restaurant business here in New York and there were many undocumented waiters and restaurant workers. Ironically, our restaurant was called The American Restaurant. As a little boy, I remember the immigration police coming in and conducting sweeps\u2014the restaurants and coffee shops would lose half their staff. I lost a lot of family members.\nWhat kinds of trauma are you seeing for these patients, especially those who experienced separation from their parents at the border?\nThere\u2019s fear, a horrible severing of psychological attachments, the severe, repetitive cumulative trauma of trying to get to the border, then being separated from your family, and tremendous suspicion of authority of any kind\u2014including authority that presents itself as benevolent, as in this country. A lot of people have suffered immensely because they are living under the sword of Damocles.\nTalk a little bit about the short-term and long-term impacts of trauma.\nIn order for people to survive, they encapsulate the trauma. They freeze it within themselves, but it never stays completely isolated\u2014it affects them going forward. It shows up in the form of depression, all kinds of cognitive difficulties, anxiety disorders\u2014it\u2019s what is often referred to as post-traumatic stress disorder. But the trauma also shows up later\u2014and we have documentation for this\u2014in physical ways: heart conditions, autoimmune disorders, inflammatory conditions. These kinds of ongoing, severe traumas\u2014they don\u2019t stay in the past.\nHave the rhetoric and policies of the Trump administration affected your clients?\nThe immigrants are already terrorized. Where I see a difference is in my private practice, and I know my colleagues report this too. There is an increased anxiety about what\u2019s happening to the country, an increased preoccupation. People talk much more about social realities than they ever did before. Obviously, psychoanalysis is about subjective experience, but what has been validated for me is\u2014and it\u2019s an important point\u2014culture and society saturate subjective experience.\nHow do you make sure your clinicians are taken care of?\nContemporary psychoanalysis has made massive inroads into understanding how trauma affects caregivers. Superficially, it\u2019s referred to as vicarious traumatization or secondary traumatization, but it goes much deeper than that. We have to make sure the people trying to do the work\u2014the healers, the clinicians\u2014are as psychologically centered as possible, even if they\u2019re highly trained to begin with.\nThat\u2019s why we\u2019ve got the books. There\u2019s no shortcut. It\u2019s an understanding of the complexities of interactions between people, an understanding of how even helpers need to be helped\u2014by education, by participating in groups where they can talk about their own reactions.\nWhat\u2019s one case that stands out in your mind?\nOur first family case, the mother was abruptly taken away after a decade living in the community. When the judge said the deportation was stayed, the family went out into the waiting room and everybody was crying, including other people who were waiting to get in the immigrant court. The family wanted to take some photographs of the NYU lawyers and me, and, when it came time to say goodbye, one of the children who was practically mute from the trauma, whispers to me, \u201cAre you coming home with us?\u201d It still gets to me when I think about that.\nRebecca Beyer\nHealth and Medicine Law and Policy",

        "raw_content": "Home \u2022 Third Sunday of Easter (B)\nFr Benjamin Earl urges us to rejoice in our con-fusion that is found in Christ and our faith in him.\nThird Sunday of Easter (B) | Fr Benjamin Earl urges us to rejoice in our con-fusion that is found in Christ and our faith in him.\nThe Easter season coincides with the \u201chome straight\u201d of the academic year, which means that many students in schools, colleges and universities will shortly be facing examinations. Probably at some point those preparing for exams will experience confusion as they seek to order their thoughts and their studies. Part of a revision process is about making connections between the various things we have studied; but we all mix things up from time to time, and as we fit the different pieces of the jigsaw together we might occasionally get the wrong piece. We hope, of course, it will look much better as the jigsaw nears completion.\nAmong those who have more reason to worry about confusion are those studying law, because \u201cconfusion\u201d has a technical legal meaning. This is most easily explained with an example. If one company rents a building from another, then the two companies have mutual rights and obligations in virtue of the lease, a contract between the two entities. If one company fails in its obligations, the other can sue in court. But if the two companies later merge into one, their mutual rights and obligations come to an end through what is called \u201cconfusion\u201d. The two parties to the contract have fused together: they are \u201ccon-fused\u201d. The obligation to pay rent, and the right to collect it, both disappear; and obviously it would be nonsense for the merged company to try to sue itself.\nThose who do not have an impending law exam might wonder why I mention this legal technicality. The short answer is that the scriptures today are full of the terminology and imagery of legal processes. And there is much confusion.\nIn the Acts of the Apostles, Peter today is speaking of the actual legal process by which Christ was condemned. Jesus was the accused, the people the accusers and Pilate the judge. But now he has been raised, and the disciples are witnesses to that.\nBut in the first letter of St John, things are different. The legal language is figurative this time; we are the accused \u2013 indeed the guilty ones; Jesus is now our advocate, our barrister, our defence counsel. More than that, he takes our sins away: not just providing an alibi, but a cure for our sins, both pardon and effective rehabilitation.\nIn the gospel it is different again. Jesus appears to the disciples and asks them to act as judge. He shows them his hands and feet, he eats fish before their eyes, and asks them to believe, to judge, that he is truly risen in the flesh. And having convinced them, he sends them out as witnesses again. I say \u201cthem\u201d, but of course we too are included among those disciples who are to judge and bear witness.\nSo we are, with the people of Israel, accusers of Christ; we are accused as sinners with him; we are called upon to judge him; and we are witnesses to his resurrection. It is all very confusing.\nBut confusion can help. Charles Dickens\u2019 Bleak House has as its background the generations-long Chancery case of Jarndyce v Jarndyce: a family dispute over a will which ended decade after the death of the testator only when the inheritance had been exhausted on legal fees. If only there had been confusion: if the two branches had been united in a single heir, then the ridiculous state of affairs would be ended.\nHumanity\u2019s situation is no less ridiculous: we turn against our Father, creator and sustainer, the one who loves us. We commit sin which is destructive of all that we are. And yet we carry on the hand-wringing and the self-justification until our lives are wasted.\nBut with Christ\u2019s death and resurrection we are rescued. We are at once accused and accuser; our defender and advocate is also our judge; and we are witnesses to the fact that sin and death have been overcome. Persistence in the action is utterly pointless. There is no need to quibble over blame; in Christ\u2019s death and resurrection our fault has become a moot point.\nSo leave behind sin, and all its snares. Rejoice in the resurrection. Rejoice in our confusion. Rejoice that we still have the inheritance of the kingdom. And if there is one legal role which must continue, let it be that of witnessing to the joyful confusion that is the Christian faith.\nhttps://www.english.op.org/torch/redeeming-confusion",

        "raw_content": "Mitch Hedberg Remembered by Modern Comedian, a New Documentary Web Series\nin Comedy | September 6th, 2012 Leave a Comment\nIf ever there was a golden era to enjoy comedy, it's now, a moment when comedians and those who love their work have heartily exploited nearly every form of media newly generated by the internet. At times I wonder if the medium of podcasting doesn't owe its very existence to those funny men and women \u2014 the earliest high-profile example being Ricky Gervais, collectively with his writing partner Stephen Merchant and oracle/object of ridicule Karl Pilkington \u2014 who immediately understood its potential. Some comedians podcast so well that you'd almost believe they had just been waiting for the technology to arrive. Alas, it arrived in the mid-2000s, too late for Mitch Hedberg to make use of it. Though we'll never know how or if Hedberg, who died in 2005, would have podcast, we can at least still call up his comedic spirit at a moment's notice through the miracle of internet video.\nThough Hedberg has gone, his fans' interest in his unconventional persona, sensibility, and delivery haven't. A new documentary web series called Modern Comedian has even put out a whole episode dedicated to him, based upon an interview with his widow Lynn Shawcroft. She describes Hedberg as \"a huge proponent of daydreaming,\" which seems only to begin to describe his way of life and work. If you missed out on Hedberg during his life, don't miss out on him during this wave of posthumous popularity. Just above, you'll find embedded a five-minute stand-up set that should give you a glimpse of the distinctive angles from which Hedberg viewed existence. And the next time a whole bunch of internet comedy enthusiasts insist that you simply must check out a strange young rising talent, certainly don't make the same mistake I did eight years ago and tell yourself you can always catch him later.",

        "raw_content": "Home > Books > Brain Mechanisms of Perception and Memory: From Neuron to Behavior\nBrain Mechanisms of Perception and Memory: From Neuron to Behavior\nAuthors/Editor: Fukuda, Masaji; Squire, Larry R.\nThis volume presents the work of over 40 eminent scientists from around the world.\nInformation about perception and memory is accumulating rapidly in both basic and clinical neuroscience, and this progress has been made using a variety of approaches while drawing jointly on the traditions of neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neuropsychology. In order to disseminate research occurring in leading laboratories around the world, an international symposium on \"Brain Mechanisms of Perception and Memory: From Neuron to Behavior\" was held in Toyama, Japan, in October 1991. Planned in conjunction with this important meeting, this volume presents the work of over 40 eminent scientists from around the world. Their research covers many topics, including such core issues as the perception of form, perception of motion, memory and the limbic system, the neocortex, and neural plasticity. A prominent area of discussion at the symposium, and one which figures prominently in this volume, is work with nonhuman primates, especially useful in the study of perception and memory. The breadth of coverage of this volume in conjunction with its extensive studies of nonhuman primates makes this book a necessary reference for those interested in current perspectives on brain mechanisms of perception and memory. Neuroscientists, neuropsychologists, cognitive and physiological psychologists will find this authoritative, state-of-the-art review important and informative reading.\nAuthor/Editor: Fukuda, Masaji; Squire, Larry R.",

He will speak at a public event and undertake student workshops in the art of theatre.\nHe said: 'I am hugely looking forward to my year as Visiting Professor, and feel very honoured to have been asked. It allows me to indulge, even further, my obsessive interest in Shakespeare and his contemporaries, and I hope that the students I meet will enjoy our working together. I know for certain that I will learn a huge amount.'\nProfessor Roger Ainsworth, Master of St Catherine\u2019s College, said: 'We feel immensely privileged to be welcoming Simon Russell Beale to St Catherine's, and I am delighted that he has agreed to take on the role of Cameron Mackintosh Visiting Professor of Contemporary Theatre. Simon\u2019s impressive list of stage and screen acting credits span a remarkably diverse career, which has included theatre, television, film, and radio. Our students will be very fortunate indeed to have the opportunity to learn from such a versatile actor.'\nSimon Russell Beale is a graduate of Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. He was first drawn to performance as a chorister at St Paul\u2019s Cathedral School. He made his stage debut aged fourteen at the Redgrave Theatre at Clifton College, Bristol, where he performed in Othello. His diverse career has spanned theatre, television, film, and radio, and he has taken on some of the most distinguished roles in theatre including the title roles in King Lear at the Olivier Theatre and Hamlet at the Lyttelton Theatre.\nAn Associate Artist of the Royal Shakespeare Company, his many accolades include a BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor in Henry IV Parts I & II and a Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in Uncle Vanya. Simon was awarded a CBE in the Queen\u2019s Birthday Honours List of 2003 for services to the Arts. From May to July 2015, Simon will star in Temple, a new play at the Donmar Warehouse about the 2011 United Kingdom anti-austerity protests.\nThe Chair of Contemporary Theatre, founded through a grant from the Mackintosh Foundation at St Catherine's College, aims to promote interest in, and the study and practice of, contemporary theatre. The Visiting Professorship has previously been held by actors, writers, directors, and producers including Stephen Sondheim, Arthur Miller, Alan Ayckbourn, Richard Eyre, Phyllida Lloyd and Patrick Stewart.",

        "raw_content": "These tax measures are a matter of public safety\nResidents in Eastern Plumas are being asked to approve a tax measure to support their local fire department, while those in Crescent Mills and Quincy are considering whether to approve a parcel tax that will keep the street lights glowing in their neighborhoods.\nBallots were sent to registered voters in the three areas and must be returned or postmarked by Nov. 7. All three measures require a two-thirds vote to pass, so every ballot could be critical in deciding the outcome.\nWhile we aren\u2019t generally proponents of higher taxes, we think that when it\u2019s a matter of public safety, it could be money well spent. And it\u2019s easy to make the argument in favor of these measures by simply turning on the television or reading this newspaper.\nThis has been fire season \u2014 both here in Plumas County and across the state. Plumas County has been blessed this fire season that a combination of rapid response and cooperative weather prevented the apocalypse that devoured the wine country last week. Communities from Chilcoot to Taylorsville were in wildfire paths and escaped thanks in part to the rapid response not only of the Forest Service, but to local volunteer fire departments. Anything we can do to support those efforts we should.\nAnd our local volunteers do more than fight fires; they respond to a multitude of emergencies, including vehicle accidents, medical aid calls and hazardous incidents. We encourage the residents served by Eastern Plumas Fire to vote yes on Measure C.\nAs for lighting, now is not the time to turn off the street lights. District Attorney David Hollister said that his office has seen a 22 percent increase in crime this past summer, and anyone who is a regular reader of our Sheriff\u2019s Blotter can\u2019t help but notice the uptick in incidents. Lights are a deterrent for crime, and any lecture on improving security around one\u2019s home includes lighting. PG&E has just made a significant local investment in street lights, improving the visibility as well as their efficiency. The lighting is uniform and no doubt if the lights are turned off, some residents will erect their own replacements, opening up the potential for a hodgepodge approach to the situation.\nNo one wants to pay more on their property tax bill and these increases come at a time when residents have just received their annual assessments, which already bear a list of past tax measures including school bonds. But now is not the time to say \u201cno.\u201d Following the first year, Quincy property owners would pay no more than $18.56 per year or $1.55 per month to keep the lights on. Crescent Mills\u2019 property owners would pay no more than $3.37 per month for street lights, and those in Eastern Plumas would pay less than $5.50 per month for their fire department.\n\u2190 Indian Valley woman promotes pancreatic cancer awareness\n9 thoughts on \u201cThese tax measures are a matter of public safety\u201d\nWhen will eastern Plumas and the County start enforcing Fire Safe and (even) County codes?\ni see residents dumping slash onto other\u2019s property and stacking firewood, tires, and auto chemicals around structures- to say nothing of a buildup of weeds and tree litter.\nAn ounce of prevention is worth a sawbuck of surtax-\nwhich nearsighted voters will likely reject, anyway.\nEver Notice There Are No Street Lights In Wealthy Enclaves?\nGo around the world and you may notice that wherever the wealthiest people live there are no street lights. Do you think they might know something that we don\u2019t? Have you ever noticed that increasingly neighborhoods are opting for the \u201cdark sky\u201d concept versus constant illumination that turns night into day? Are YOU here in Plumas County, a mostly rural place, because you want street lights like suburbia or a large city? I specifically have avoided street lighting in picking where I live.\nMaybe street lights are an idea that is past its time. Maybe it *is* time to turn out the street lights.\nLet me guess\u2026.this is the guy from Crescent Mills who wrote an article about Quincy\u2019s future the other day\u2026right? I\u2019d bet on it! Lol\nHeartofPlumas\n^ This article is written by the newspaper staff, see the top of the page where it says \u201cstaff\u201d, the author is always listed there.\nLemme guess\nHeart of Plumas\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.Why don\u2019t you leave it to the Newspaper staff to correct me\u2026.or pay more attention. I replied to the comment above mine\u2026.penned by \u201cEver Notice\u201d. But thanks for butting in!\nHeart of Plumas\u2026.just btw\u2026.the author is not \u201calways\u201d listed. There is an editorial in todays paper with no author on it. Careful of your credibility.\nYou\u2019re right, I mistakenly thought you were referring to the article, I didn\u2019t understand who you were referring to. I like to put a little arrow pointing up to the comment I am replying to so my message is easily understood.\nAn editorial is written by the head editor, the editorial staff or publisher of the news paper, so the term editorial implies who the author is, to list the author is kind of redundant. In the paper version(as opposed to online) they don\u2019t list an author because it\u2019s implied. In the online version they list \u201cstaff\u201d probably because it\u2019s an empty field that needs to have something in it to make the page layout work, that\u2019s my guess. I was referring to the online version of the paper since that\u2019s were our discussion took place. Have a great day.\nWell thank you for the info! And you have a wonderful day also!\nI live in Quincy and pay property taxes, yet is never got a ballot to vote on this. It really annoys me that people are voting on my taxes and most of them don\u2019t pay property taxes. Personally I feel only those who pay should be voting on this, yet I get no say in the matter.",

        "title": "HOW TO CHANGE IMMERSION HEATER - Plumbing Tips",
        "raw_content": "HOW TO CHANGE IMMERSION HEATER \u2013 Plumbing Tips\nThis video will tell you how to change an immersion heater element in your hot water storage tank. It will tell you how to isolate the electrics to the immersion heater and how to drain the tank. It will tell you how to remove the old element and replace it with a new one.\nToday we\u2019re going to be having a very quick look at the murky, dark world of top-entry immersion heaters. Now, this immersion heater here isn\u2019t working very well. Or it\u2019s not working at all. They basically found out because their heating system went mad. They turned their immersion on as a backup and nothing happened. Next thing you know, I\u2019m getting a phone call. Oh my God, we got no hot water. Get Jimmy from PlumberParts out here right now. So here I am. So basically the procedure that we go through when we change an immersion heater is to firstly isolate electrically the immersion heater. Make sure that\u2019s done. If you\u2019re not happy doing that then I suggest you don\u2019t even carry on with this job and get a proper real plumber like me to come out and do it. The next thing we need to do is turn off the cold water supply to the bottom of the hot water tank. Then we drain down the hot water at the top. We can do that firstly by opening all the hot taps in the house. And then secondly, by finding the drain off at the bottom of the tank. Now because this is a top-entry immersion heater all we\u2019ll need to do is drain out a couple of litres out of the whole tank itself. Also, I\u2019d say as a small tip is to try to try and loosen off the immersion when it\u2019s full of water, okay? \u2018Cause that water tends to stabilise the copper tank because they can be prone to ripping because you\u2019ve got a very fine, thin copper wall that\u2019s holding the whole tank together. So do that first. Make sure then that you drain off about five to ten litres worth of water. You should know that it\u2019s drained out okay if you crack the nut on the outlet at the top. You\u2019ll know then that everything\u2019s all right. So anyway, if you follow us as we go along and do it, I\u2019m sure you\u2019re gonna enjoy this as much as I am because this is the best job you could ever do. Especially when you\u2019re round one of your mate\u2019s houses. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this video and it helps you out if you\u2019ve got a top-entry immersion heater that\u2019s gone wrong. So nice and easy when it comes to switching this off. It\u2019s just on this plug here. We can just unplug this plug and then we know that there\u2019s no power going into our immersion heater. So if we take a closer look at the actual tank itself. This here is our hot outlet, okay? So this is the hot water that\u2019s going out to our taps. Obviously we\u2019ve got our immersion heater at the top just there. Down here we have our flow and return from the coil of the boiler. So there\u2019s our flow there and that goes through a coil and then back out. Nice and simple. A little bypass valve down there. But then the bit that we\u2019re worried about at the moment is the cold feed. So we have our drain off just here, like so. We follow this pipe up. We should be able to see that we\u2019ve got a big valve. This one here. So what I\u2019m gonna do is turn off this valve here now. You should now be able to open up all the hot supplies. What that\u2019s doing at the moment is draining out the expansion pipe up to loft. Now as you can see that\u2019s pretty much stopped running now. At this point if we find that this is still dripping here, you\u2019ve probably got a problem with that valve there holding. Therefore you might have to turn the mains off, open that valve up fully again and then basically drain the whole tank out. Alternatively, if you have the facilities, you can actually bone the tank but you need special bones to do that. And if you\u2019re here watching the video about how to do an immersion heater, you probably don\u2019t have those tools with you. So, as you can see this is still running a little bit. We\u2019re just going to open up a few more taps and if we\u2019ve got a problem with that valve, we\u2019ll address that now. Right, so now we\u2019ve got the water off. We know that the valve\u2019s holding. And basic now, the water level of the hot system is about up to the top of the tank there. Before you carry on, make sure that all the electric isolation that you\u2019ve done is okay, all right? Make sure that you use a voltage tester. Make sure that you pull any fuses that could be nearby. And also make sure that you identify what trip the immersion is on and throw that trip to the off position as well. What we\u2019re now going to do is get our hose on the drain off at the bottom of the tank and get that into a bath or outside in preparation.",

        "raw_content": "Xunantunich Visitor Center Becomes a Reality\nXunantunich is an Ancient Mayan archaeological site in the West of Belize, in Socouts Village, Cayo District. It is one of Belize\u2019s most visited Mayan ruins and so has become a very crucial site for the tourism industry.\nAs of yesterday, the Xunantunich site has a new Visitor\u2019s Center. Our correspondent Kent Pandy was there for the official inauguration of the Xunantunich Visitors Center and spoke to Dr. Jaime Awe, Commissioner of Archaeology.\nDr. Jaime Awe- Commissioner of Archaeology\n\u201cWe are presently standing in the newly open Xunantunich Visitor Center. It brings us to a whole new level of sight. Visitor Center is because the exhibits that we have here incorporate not just artifacts but also big murals and a lot of information. When you go to the door, you are greeted, as you see behind me with this big mural, that has a wooden cross down at the bottom. That wooden cross is a replica of what was noted at the site in the 1800\u2019s when Thomas Gaunn, an English doctor first visited the site. He reports that the Maya from San Jose Succ\u2019otz used to leave offerings at the base of a wooden cross. When you go inside past this point, we have information about how this site developed from its earliest occupation right up to when the site was abandoned. We have panels that tell us about names of Xunantunich (because this site has changed names four times\u201d.\nDr. Awe told us more about the actual Mayan ruin and about its name.\nDr. Jaime Awe: \u201cThe first name that was used for the site was Mount Maloney, because of this British governor Alfred Maloney in the 1800\u2019s commissioned a survey of this area and the surveyors put a monument at the top of that big pyramid thinking it was a hill and decided to call it after the governor. Later on, Derrick Thompson, a famous British archaeologist decided to call the site Benque Viejo. Well you know the village is in Succ\u2019otz, so, the villagers weren\u2019t too happy with that name. It was ten subsequently changed to Xunantunich which means Stone Maiden based on a legend and then in 2003, I was excavating in one of the buildings and we found this carved monument which had a Maya writing on it, and in that writing, it told us that the ancient name of the city was Kat Witz which means \u2018Clay Mountain\u2019. But we are not going to change the name from Xunantunich because it is so established now\u201d.",

She was born May 29, 1932, in Kobe, Japan, of pioneer missionary parents, Gordon K. and Katherine D. Chapman. She spent more than 10 years in Japan both before and after World War II.\nShe was married for more than 55 years to her beloved husband, Verne L. Jacobson, who predeceased her in 2017. They enjoyed widely traveling and serving as hosts in state parks after retiring from professional life.\nMargaret\u2019s life reflected her strong personal relationship with Jesus Christ, in whose presence she now rests. She gently and truly \u201cwalked her talk.\u201d As she physically suffered during her last days here, this walk was most evident.\nMargaret had a passion for teaching kids in the San Diego, California, school system. There, she was appreciated by all of her colleagues and demonstrated great courage when challenged in areas where doing the right thing matters. She also had a passion for animals of all varieties.\nShe is survived by family including brothers Bill and Chuck and nieces and nephews almost too numerous to count. They recall her graciousness in all that Margaret attempted. A consummate hostess, she was skilled in all aspects of loving hospitality.\nMargaret will be sorely missed, but we rejoice in her life and delight in the reality of her being in glory with her Lord.

        "raw_content": "I'm not quite sure exactly what was going on today, but we had off-and-on torrential downpours all morning. I jokingly remarked that it would be ironic if the virtual field trip to the Baseball Hall of Fame was cancelled due to rain delay! :-)\nAs it turns out, just about the time I got to Genoa, the rain stopped. Time has rarely gone slower as the time between my arrival and the time to dial up Cooperstown! I'm pretty sure the clock was running backwards at one point...\nThen, the time came, and I fired up the connection, fully expecting to lose connectivity at least once during the interactive lesson. I was wrong, thankfully.\nThe students came in and sat down, and the instructor (I wish I could remember his name, and I apologize to him for forgetting now) began to talk to the students - \"How many of you are into baseball?\" One kid raises his hand... (This is not going to bode well, I thought) \"How many of you have been to Cooperstown?\" No one (well, their teacher had), but that is not surprising to me. After all, I have lived all over the U.S. and have yet to make to the HOF... The students seemed a bit scared, afraid to answer, maybe fearing to give the \"wrong\" answer. The instructor was great - even when a question did have a wrong answer, he took care in steering the students to the right one. He engaged the students, asking them about their friends and the characteristics they see like in their friends. The students began to open up some.\nAfter a brief \"tour\" (i.e. commercial), the lesson about character and Lou Gehrig began. I will not divule the lesson completely, but here are some of the highlights of the lesson:\nThe instructor had tech help, so was able to concentrate on the students and the lesson exclusively,\nHe conducted the lesson in the gallery of plaques right next to Lou Gerhig's plaque on the wall!!\nThe students had to perform a play, in various acts, and were REQUIRED to switch parts, so that eventually all ten students got to actively participate!\nThe instructor was shown at the same time as various pictures of Gehrig, Babe Ruth, etc, so the students were rarely \"left alone.\"\nAt different points, the students were shown video clips from a DVD at the HOF,\nWe got to see Tony Gwynn's and Cal Ripken Jr's plaques on the wall via the camera!\nWe also got to see the \"Very First Class\" plaques because the camera was in the position to zoom in on the five original plaques!\nThe students came away with a better understanding of what it means to have positive character traits\nThe Dragons of Genoa got to go to Cooperstown, NY, and back in less than an hour!\nThis truly was one of the greatest experiences I have had in distance learning. Very, very cool!! To quote Gehrig himself, \"Today, I am the luckiest man on the face of this earth.\" For a whole lot of reasons....\nOn the way back from the school, I stopped in at the mall to pick up Emily's latest pictures from Sears. The woman behind the counter recognized Emily in her outfit, and then immediately put me in her \"entourage\" and even remembered Tyler playing his Nintendo DS. She was the one we WANTED to take Emily's pictures, but it didn't happen that way. It means a lot to me that someone who sees hundreds of people a week remembers my kids... And she only met them once.\nI also did some birthday shopping for Shan (which I cannot give details, sorry!!), and then picked the kids up from Shan's room. They were excited when I told them we were having Sloppy Joe's! :-) That's what I like - easy cookin.... :-)\nWell, as usual, there was something else floating around the cyber-space that fills the gap between my ears, but I have forgotten it...",

She's very obviously tacked on just to establish a romantic subplot. That doesn't go anywhere. And resolves itself in a \"let's just be friends\" speech.\nThematically, and in preparation for other films, it really would have made much more sense to have some other character, one that already exists in the Bat-Universe, play the role of \"Bruce Wayne's childhood friend turned DA.\" I mean, I'm sure that there must have been at least one character who already exists in the Batman comics that could be inserted into the joint roles of \"confidant to Wayne\" and \"ally of Batman.\"\nBut I suppose the film-makers really felt they had to preclude as many \"Batman is teh gay\" jokes as possible.\nSo, I thought painting Kelsey Grammar blue and putting some fake fur on him was about the worst translation, in the unintentionally comic sense, to film of a super-hero I'd seen recently.\nDC officially announces Brad Meltzer as the new writer of Justice League of America .\nI'm trying so hard to refrain from making a comment about the number of attack-reviews that will soon be forthcoming, the angry revisiting of the past two years worth of DC comics output that will soon be on-line, and how I will, in all likelihood, be greatly amused by people getting upset about something as ultimately trivial as a super-hero comic.\nBut as you can see, I wasn't able to try quite hard enough...\nSo, if I'm reading between the lines in the entertainment press correctly, King Kong is being described as a failure because it didn't have the biggest film opening of all time. Is that right? Because it didn't break any kind of record, people are calling it a bomb. This is despite the fact that it was the number one movie in the country, has gotten incredibly good reviews and good word of mouth.\nGeeze, we as a culture really do like to put people in their places, don't we? Because I can't help but see the dismissal of King Kong as \"a bomb\" as some sort of back-lash against Jackson for the massive success and cult following of the Lord of the Rings films.",

        "raw_content": "Ms. B is a 15 year-old female who was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) in April 2018. Her symptoms had started with gastrointestinal issues in September 2017. In March 2018 her symptoms started getting worse. At that time, she was fainting about one to two times a day, and other symptoms such as tremors and hypotension started as well. She began having seizures in April 2018. Her medical history included getting the HPV vaccine series in early 2017, and being hit in basketball in January 2018. An MRI of her brain had been within normal limits, and EEG findings suggested non-epileptic seizures.\nMs. B came to the POTS Treatment Center in Dallas, Texas in June 2018 for treatment. At that time she was using a wheelchair at all times due to fainting and seizures. She underwent 8 days of treatment with daily sessions lasting about 3 hours. Treatment consisted of various modalities to regulate the Autonomic Nervous System, including relaxation training, biofeedback, standing and exercise techniques, nutrition recommendations, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Ms. B reported a decrease in symptoms at the end of her treatment (see symptom rating chart below).\nMs. B also showed a decrease in symptoms of anxiety and depression after treatment, as measured by the Beck Depression Inventory \u2013 II (BDI-II) and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI).

These are the main findings from a survey by Counsel and Care, a national charity working with older people.\nThe charity surveyed 56 councils across the country during August 2010. The results provide a snapshot of charging policies and eligibility for services during this period. Six of the councils surveyed said that they are considering increases to home care charging. A further four are known to be already consulting on raising charges.\nOf the councils surveyed, the highest hourly rate charged now sits at \u00a319.70 an hour. Currently 20 councils charge more than \u00a314 an hour, with 12 charging more than \u00a315 an hour for essential home care. Two councils are currently consulting on removing or increasing the maximum weekly charging level that they had previously set for home care per week. This is despite the highest rate now reaching \u00a3454.78 per week.\nStephen Burke, Chief Executive, Counsel and Care, said: \u201cWe are extremely concerned about the knock-on effects such increases in charges will have on the quality of life for older people and their carers. If these short-sighted plans are put into action, the impact will be felt first by the most vulnerable, who will have to go without vital care and support and then on acute health services as people are forced to reach crisis point before they get help.\u201d",

He produced fine furniture as a joiner/cabinetmaker in Germany where he passed his journeyman\u2019s examination in 1993.\nIn September 1999, he attended the School of Violin Making in Milan, studying construction with Luca Primon and restoration with Gabriele Negri, and he graduated in 2003 with top marks. While enrolled there, Christian was an exchange student at the Swiss School of Violin Making in Brienz. Also while at school, he made several violins, violas, and violoncellos in Cremona, while at the same time assisting Luca Primon in his workshop in Milan.\nIn March 2004, he started at Florian Leonhard Fine Violins Ltd., in London. He rose to the position of workshop manager, responsible for quality control, customer care, and apprentice training. He was also involved in extensive restoration of top Italian instruments.\nHaving been acquainted with Christopher Reuning for several years, Christian was thrilled when a restoration position opened up in 2011. He shares the approach taken at Reuning & Son Violins: to deliver outstanding results in tandem with customer care.\nNow at the very top of the restoration field, Christian continues to take a conservative, ethical approach while exploring the latest materials and developing innovative techniques. He has published numerous articles in books and magazines.\nIn his spare time, he enjoys exploring the New England countryside with his wife and young daughter, Sophie Yuzuki.\ncschabbon@reuning.com",

        "raw_content": "Last night we were watching the news and then an ad for Pick Up Stix, a Chinese fast food chain, came on. I've seen their ads several times and have wondered about the locations, since I don't remember ever seeing any.\nThis time curiosity got the better of me so I got up and took the time and used to energy to check them out on the internet. The nearest location was in nearby Alhambra.\nJulie said she has seen coupons in the newspaper for this place and there were also coupons on the website. Plus, if you join the \"Dragon Club\" they send you a link to a page where you can print a coupon good for $5.00 off any purchase of $10.00 or more. There is an explicit warning on that page that also tells you it may be printed only once.\nI printed a couple of copies and didn't see any identifying numbers or barcodes or anything that would prevent someone from using multiple copies so I wonder just why they tell you that you will only be able to print one copy when in fact you can keep printing as many as you want as long as you don't navigate away from the page. Maybe it's like when you were little and your parents told you if you kept frowning your face would freeze up in that position and you took their word for it. Those that kept frowning and thought their parents were bluffing - well, half of them were right, I guess.\nOff we went to the Pick Up Stix in Alhambra, expecting a Panda Express clone. One difference between the two is that they make your food fresh when you order it, instead of scooping it out of heated trays. Otherwise the menu items are similar but you don't get a choice of rice or chow mein or a combo of both, you get rice (white or brown).\nDoes it taste any different? If you like P.F. Changs, you will love Pick Up Stix. They both share the same addictive sweet and salty taste in everything. Portions are huge and come in takeout boxes to begin with so you don't even have to ask for one when you can't finish everything.\nOverall I'd say it is a worthy competitor to Panda Express.\nThe rest of the day I spent trying to clean up the huge mess in Greg's old room. It's a little bit cleaner now but not much. Plus it was hard to do anything today because it was so crazy hot!",

        "title": "House Republicans Entrust Majority to Rogers at NRCC",
        "raw_content": "House Republicans Entrust Majority to Rogers at NRCC\nNew York native begins fourth cycle at committee, but first as executive director\nJohn Rogers was part of the National Republican Congressional Committee team that limited the party\u2019s losses in the House to a net of just six seats in last year\u2019s election. (Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call file photo)\nMidterm elections are supposed to be trouble for the president\u2019s party, but House Republicans are confident that if they have a problem, John Rogers can solve it.\nRogers was born in Amsterdam, New York, a small-town about a half-hour west of Albany, but Republican friends know him best for once identifying an unlikely takeover opportunity three hours south in New York City.\nHe grew up as the son of an auto mechanic who wasn\u2019t registered to vote and a seamstress who was a registered independent. When her friend Agnes Rodd ran for city comptroller, his mother took her 4-year old son door-knocking, and so began a life of campaign politics.\nRogers, who recently turned 40, is starting his fourth cycle at the National Republican Congressional Committee, but his first as executive director. He was part of the NRCC team that raised and spent over $150 million last cycle and exceeded expectations by limiting losses to a net of six seats. But going by history, defending the House majority in 2018 will be more difficult.\nThe president\u2019s party has lost House seats in 18 of the last 20 midterm elections, with an average loss of 33 seats. Democrats need to gain 24 seats to retake control.\nThroughout high school and while attending Siena College in Albany, Rogers stayed busy, volunteering on local campaigns and interning for New York\u2019s Republican Gov. George Pataki.\nHe also balanced bagging groceries at the local Stop & Shop and working his way up from cashier to the cash room at Hannaford, a regional supermarket chain.\nRogers helped break up a small crime ring when he noticed that the amount on a fraudulent check repeated the jersey number of New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor. He stalled the ringleader until police arrived.\nAt Siena, Rogers led the College Republicans, although he said he got frustrated as a political science major because \u201cit was all theory.\u201d He graduated in 1999 with a business degree. He knew the best campaign experience for him was on the trail.\nIn 2002, Rogers worked on Dora Irizarry\u2019s unsuccessful race against Democrat Eliot Spitzer for attorney general. As deputy campaign manager for the cash-strapped campaign, Rogers staffed the candidate on the road while handling the schedule (which he memorized, in the pre-smart phone era) and communications.\nIn 2004, Rogers ventured south to work for the Republican Party of Pennsylvania as a director of field operations. There, he helped boost the party phone bank in suburban Montgomery County into one of the largest in the country focused on re-electing President George W. Bush. Local volunteers were so energized that they requested call sheets for New Mexico, so they could continue making calls after 9 p.m. Eastern time.\nIn 2006, Rogers moved to New Jersey to be victory director for the state GOP, which was focused on getting Tom Kean Jr. elected to the U.S. Senate. Once again, he ramped up the phone bank, but it consequently created a backlog of data.\n\u201cJohn locked himself in a room one night and wrote software to make it easier to input the data,\u201d said GOP consultant Brian O. Walsh, a Garden State native and NRCC veteran who was working for Kean.\n\u201cHe always had a smile, great wit, and worked hard,\u201d Kean recalled. \u201cAnd a lot of times, he slept in the campaign office.\u201d Kean lost the race 53 percent to 44 percent to Democrat Robert Menendez in what ended up being a terrible year for GOP candidates nationwide.\nRogers went back to New York, where he managed Republican Andrew Saul\u2019s race against Democratic Rep. John Hall in the 19th Congressional District until Saul dropped out. Then Rogers shifted gears.\nBy that time, Rogers estimates he had moved 14 times over about 9 years in the campaign trenches, so he tried to take his marketing management degree from theory to reality on Wall Street.\nHis r\u00e9sum\u00e9 didn\u2019t add up, but the folks at AMR Capital Trading told him he could have a job if he passed the Series 7 exam (a requirement for licensed stockbrokers), which was coming up in two weeks. Rogers studied while raising money for Republican Rob Astorino in the Westchester County executive race and passed the rigorous test.\nThat wasn\u2019t an easy time for Rogers, personally and professionally, as the stock market crashed and he was still juggling his political habit. \u201cI was trading and campaign managing at the same time,\u201d he said. \u201cTwo things I don\u2019t recommend doing at once.\u201d\nBut Rogers political prospects continued to climb.\nAfter he turned down Walsh\u2019s entreaties to join the NRCC, Rogers managed Astorino\u2019s upset victory over incumbent Andy Spano in 2009 and Republican Bob Cohen\u2019s unsuccessful bid for the New York state Senate in 2010, all while still trading. Cohen lost to Democratic incumbent Suzi Oppenheimer by 728 votes (less than 1 percentage point), even though the district contained about twice as many registered Democrats as Republicans.\nAfter the historic election when Republicans gained 63 House seats, Rogers joked to Walsh that he made a mistake by not coming on board earlier, but Rogers said joining the NRCC wasn\u2019t the right fit for him until he applied the next cycle.\n\u201cHiring Northeast Republican operatives is tricky because you usually can\u2019t judge them by their number of wins,\u201d said then-outgoing Northeast regional political director Brock McCleary who was part of the team looking at Rogers to fill his NRCC position. \u201cHe wasn\u2019t a terribly known commodity,\u201d remembered McCleary, now a Pennsylvania-based pollster. \u201cBut he was a guy who got the job in the interview.\u201d\nRogers wasn\u2019t sure what to make of the seven-minute interview with McCleary and then-political director Mike Shields that cost him $400 in travel expenses. He was eventually offered the job and it wasn\u2019t long before he made his mark.\nFor most of 2011, Rogers might have been the only Republican in Washington who believed businessman Bob Turner could turn a 20-point loss to Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner in 2010 into a special election victory in the open seat less than a year later after the congressman resigned.\nBut Rogers recognized that New York\u2019s 9th District was more conservative than its prior partisan performance and the ethnic makeup of the seat gave Republicans an opportunity.\n\u201cIt was his chance to get into the cockpit and fly the thing by himself,\u201d McCleary said. \u201c[Rogers] sold it internally.\u201d\n\u201cHe could have gone through the motions,\u201d recalled E. O\u2019Brien Murray, a New York-based campaign consultant who managed the Turner campaign, but Rogers always found ways to make the money stretch. In the final days, he suggested the cash-poor campaign spend money on a last-second poll to generate national interest.\n\u201cIt\u2019s unorthodox to spend your last dollars on a poll,\u201d Murray said. \u201cBut the poll showed that was a dead heat and the world woke up.\u201d\nAt the time, Rogers was on a pre-planned vacation to Sea Isle City, New Jersey, with his now-wife Sarah (it was August in the off-year, after all) so he digested the poll results, draped in a towel on the beach (his closest friends have the photo). But Rogers couldn\u2019t stay away completely.\n\u201cHe came up to New York for the final portion of the last week and organized a good deal of our volunteers. He was professional and very proficient,\u201d Turner said. \u201cI saw John\u2019s versatility and knowledge. And I rarely saw him without a phone in his ear.\u201d\nTurner won that 2011 special election 52 percent to 47 percent in a district a Republican hadn\u2019t held in more than 80 years and one Barack Obama carried by 11 points in the previous presidential election.\n\u201cJohn has a record of success,\u201d said incoming NRCC Chairman Steve Stivers, on a break from National Guard duty in Columbus, Ohio, before Christmas. \u201cHe\u2019s done a good job of beating Democratic incumbents and he\u2019s won tough races people didn\u2019t think we could win.\u201d\nFor the 2014 midterms, Rogers was promoted to deputy political director, but most importantly, he built an internal polling and analytics department after what he calls \u201cThe great GOP data crisis of 2012.\u201d\n\u201cWe thought we were winning races we weren\u2019t even competitive in,\u201d he said. So Rogers built the new division and helped lead the party to two successful cycles (the most recent as political director).\n\u201cI feel really good about what he\u2019s done to make our campaigns about data and analytics,\u201d Stivers said. \u201cWe\u2019ll know what coalition of voters are in each district and how to communicate with them.\u201d\nIt\u2019s going to be a busy cycle for Rogers, who just welcomed a second daughter with his wife, a Wal-Mart lobbyist. But GOP insiders believe his ideas, even-keeled demeanor and the coffee he brews in his office make for the steady hand the party needs.\n\u201cFor someone who is passionate about the business, he can be surprisingly unemotional when making decisions,\u201d Turner said. That\u2019s an important character trait when the going gets tough.\nTopics: 2012 2014 2016 2018 Barack Obama Business Campaigns congress. congressional elections conservatives democrats Elections Executive Branch House independents John Rogers Lobbying Majority National Republican Congressional Committee New Jersey New Mexico New York NRCC Ohio open-seat Pennsylvania polling Presidential race Republicans Robert Menendez Science Senate Special Election Steve Stivers Washington Washington DC POLI",

        "raw_content": "Flood Insurance Redrawn Flood Maps\nRecently FEMA has been redrawing the maps of flood prone areas across the country. While some states have already received the new and updated versions, others are still awaiting the results. For property owners in central Kentucky the new maps may mean savings for some, but higher costs for others.\nThe maps have not been changed in many decades and with new technology the maps will now be more accurate. While some people will no longer need to purchase flood insurance, others will likely be required to purchase it by their home insurance companies. In Clarke county Kentucky around 400 houses are likely to no longer need flood insurance.\nHowever around 200 additional houses in the same county who previously did not have flood insurance will be required to purchase it. If this is the case for homeowners it is a smart idea to purchase the flood insurance now. This way the plan will be grandfathered at the current cost once the new maps go into effect, saving hundreds of dollars a year.",

        "raw_content": "Str\u00e1sk\u00fd, Hust\u00fd a partne\u0159i s.r.o. (hereinafter referred to as \u201cSHP\u201d) is an independent engineering company founded in 1991 by four chief designers of the former Dopravn\u00ed stavby Olomouc Prof. Ing. Ji\u0159\u00ed Str\u00e1sk\u00fd, DSc., Ing. Ilja Hust\u00fd, Ing. Petr Hub\u00edk, and Ing. Statislav Susk\u00fd.\nDue to the situation on the building market in 1991, it was first necessary to substantially extend the range of designing works. At that time, foreign investments went into banks and hotels rather than new roads. Therefore, apart from bridge structures, which were to constitute the company\u2019s principal business, we tried out designs of ground structures, petrol stations, and also a small hydraulic power plant.\nThe turning point was 1993 when we won a public tender for the project of the R52 express road Rajhrad \u2013 Poho\u0159elice, which was the first motorway construction in this country after 1989. There we ensured the provision of a comprehensive designing service not only for the investor, but subsequently, within the implementation, also for the private foreign contractor.\nWe had the opportunity to make use of our experience from that construction for the next construction: the R35 road between P\u0159\u00e1slavice and Velk\u00fd \u00dajezd. There we also provided complete implementing documentation for the entire construction, this time for a domestic contractor \u2013 Dopravn\u00ed stavby IES Olomouc. At that time, the construction of the D5 motorway between Plze\u0148 and Rozvadov had started and the number of bridge structure projects began to increase.\nAt the beginning of 1997, together with HBH projekt s.r.o. we founded the joint-stock company SHB a.s., in which under one heading we could offer clients capacity securing complex projects for all motorway sections.\nBridges designed by SHP can be found on all motorways in the Czech Republic. We provide our services for both state investors and private companies. We always seek solutions that enable us to build structures effectively.\nWe strive to find solutions for supplier companies that best fit their experience, technical standard, and equipment level. Our major clients include EUROVIA CS, SKANSKA, SMP CZ, STRABAG, FIRESTA, B\u00d6GL A KR\u00ddSL, DOPRASTAV, and METROSTAV.\nAn important part of our work is represented by bridges that we designed for foreign clients in the USA, Sweden, Spain and England. The company\u2019s consulting and design services in the USA and Canada are provided via the company JIRI STRASKY, Ph.D., P.E., Consulting Engineer, based in California. Our interests in the United Kingdom are represented by STRASKY HUSTY AND PARTNERS LIMITED, based in London.\nIn 2009, our subsidiary company SHP TS s.r.o. started its business activity; its scope of business includes technical support for the preparation, implementation, maintenance, and operation of structures. This company\u2019s technical specialists provide their services in the fields of bridges, steel structures, roads, and geotechnology.\nOur Bratislava-based subsidiary company SHP SK s.r.o. also started its activity in 2009. Its primary scope of business is currently the provision of comprehensive technical support for the major contractors in Slovakia, construction design and supervision..\nThe years 2010 and 2011 represent a certain milestone in the company\u2019s life. We must compensate for the steep fall in investments in the preparation and implementation of transport infrastructures, which has caused a significant decrease in the volume of design work in the Czech Republic, by an increased amount of new foreign projects. And this not only in Slovakia and our close surroundings, but also in countries outside Europe.\nThe engineering staff of the firm design structures whose forms are inherent to the surroundings and best fulfill the functions of bridging the particular sites. They also design structures that correspond to the social and cultural character of any particular region, with minimum environmental impact both during construction and during maintenance. They strive for structures whose architecture is developed from a true structural solution, which simply and clearly express the flow of internal forces through their static system.\nThe design team develops new forms making use of the latest technological and scientific innovations to achieve the most appropriate and cost effective solutions for each individual case.\nEach project is guided by the firm\u2019s design philosophy of unity of function and form and unity of structural and architectural solutions.\nThe aesthetic impressions of designed structures are studied not only using drawings, photographs, and perspective views but, above all, through the use of models, whether for whole structures or just important details.\nSHP\u2019s designs are based on a deep understanding of material characteristics and their mutual connections, as well as the function of structural members and the structural systems. Great attention is given to the development of structural details and the arrangement of reinforcing and prestressing steel with regard to their static function, technology of production and maintenance.\nThe structures are not simply analyzed but first of all created and designed to obtain the optimum solution.\nDepending on the problem, steel structures, as well as precast and cast-in-place concrete structures, are designed combining materials not only in the individual structural members but also in the structure as a whole. The steel or precast concrete elements are combined with cast-in-place concrete to obtain economy in construction and maintain a high standard of quality while reducing construction time.",

His life, death and risen power are changing our lives. We believe that the Bible is true and is relevant for today. We aim to live out our faith and friendship with Jesus in all our day to day activities. We meet together to encourage and support one another. We also want to share God\u2019s love and truth with others through our work and activities in our community and abroad.\nHere at Southend Christian Fellowship we have a passion for seeing the Church walking in unity. We work with a number of different Church leaders in various settings because we believe that Southend, this region, the UK and the world need the Church to be walking together in a place of unity for God\u2019s glory to be seen in a greater degree. Some of the out workings of this include:\nis an informal group made up of church leaders; church members committed to praying regularly for Southend; and Christians who have positions of influence in the Borough. Based on relationships of trust and openness, our aim is to serve that part of God\u2019s agenda for Southend for which we believe the Body of Christ needs to come together in unity. Throughout Southend churches work together effectively for the Kingdom; Love Southend seeks to serve the Kingdom alongside such work with a focus on Borough-wide ministry. There are a number of projects that come under the umbrella of Love Southend, these include Street Pastors and the Churches Winter Night-shelter .

FOX, Assistant Adjutant-Gen., Department of Mississippi:\nCAPT.: On the 24th instant my attention was called to certain seditious articles in the Memphis Daily Evening Democrat of the 23d instant, commenting unfavorably upon the orders and policy of Maj.-Gen. Dana, commanding Department of Mississippi, and Maj.-Gen. Canby, commanding Military Division of West Mississippi, and upon the officers and orders of the enrolled militia of the district. Also an article charging corruption on persons in high places. These articles, taken in connection, were evidently meant and intended to bring into disrespect the military authority, and to obstruct, hinder, and defeat military orders by exciting the citizens and soldiers within the command to disobey said orders. The publications above referred to have been cut from the Memphis Daily Evening Democrat of the 23d instant and are attached to this communication I directed the provost-marshal to arrest the editor of said paper and bring him before me. When he appeared I admonished him that publications reflecting unfavorably upon the character of officers in the military service or any discussion of military orders would not be allowed, and that in future he must abstain from such publications. I required him to give me any information that he might possess of corrupt or improper conduct of any officer or person connected with the military service within the District of West Tennessee, alluded to by him in said articles. He declared that he had no such information. I then required him to give me the name of any person who he had reason to believe possesses knowledge of such conduct or practices. He assured me that he had no knowledge of any such person. These questions were written down and read to him and ample time given to reflect upon and answer them. Copies of the questions and answers are hereto attached. When he denied all knowledge and information of the charges made an insinuated by him, I proposed to release him upon the condition that he would retract the statements made and publish the same in his paper of the 25th. He accepted his release from arrest upon the conditions imposed and promised that the proper explanations and retractions should be made in his paper of the 25th. No explanation or retraction was published in his paper of the 25th, but another offensive article, headed \"Liberty of the press,\" appeared, in which he declared himself ready to prove all he had heretofore charged. The article alluded to is attached For this violation of orders and breach of his parole I ordered him under arrest a second time and placed him in confinement in the military prison. To-day he addressed me a petition, a copy of which is attached in which he retracts the offensive statements and pledges himself to abstain from giving offense in like manner again. Mr. J. M. Tomney, of the Treasury Department, pledged himself for his future good conduct and I immediately released him. I submit these facts and trust my conduct will meet the approbation of the major-general commanding.\nJAMES C. VEATCH, Brig.-Gen., Cmdg.\nHDQRS. DISTRICT OF WEST TENNESSEE, Memphis, Tenn., January 30, 1865.\nQuestions propounded to W. H. McClay, editor of the Memphis Evening Democrat, when examined on the 24th January, 1865:\nQuestion. Have you any knowledge of the corrupt or improper conduct of any officer or person in or connected with the military service of the District of West Tennessee?\nAnswer. I have no such knowledge or information.\nQuestion. Have you any information which leads you to believe that any other person, whose name you can give, does possess the knowledge of such corrupt conduct or practice?\nAnswer. I have no information of the name of any such\nQuestion. What high places do you refer to in your article headed \"Corruption,\" published in your paper of the 23d instant?\nAnswer. I did not mean any particular places. I had heard vague rumors, but I cannot give the name of any person who uttered such rumors, nor can I state what persons or places they referred to.\nP.H./D.A.",

And as I look out in the audience, so many of you are here, and I would not and could not, frankly, have done it without all of you,\u201d Martin said.\nJared Henderson and Nicole Martin are the two new city council members that were recently sworn into office. Jared Henderson replaced Matt Robinson as the city council member from District 1. Nicole Martin took the place of Mike Day and is now representing District 4.\n\u201cI\u2019d like to thank my friends and neighbors for their support,\u201d Jared Henderson, said. \u201cI\u2019m happy to serve and make a difference.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019re very grateful for these two wonderful people,\u201d Mayor Carmen Freeman said. \u201cThis is an exciting time.

I couldn\u2019t be more excited,\u201d Martin said after the ceremony.\n\u201cIt\u2019ll be nice to see some fresh voices in the city government. The city is growing a lot right now and it needs to change the direction it was going to. It\u2019s nice to have some new voices in there. I think it\u2019s important to get involved now, because what they\u2019re doing now is going to shape how the city is for decades to come. So, there are important decisions to be made,\u201d Andy Henderson, Jared\u2019s brother and resident of Herriman City, said.\n\u201cIt\u2019s nice to see people care about their community.

        "raw_content": "Star Ocean The Second Story Original Soundtrack :: Review by Don\nAlbum Title: Star Ocean The Second Story Original Soundtrack\nRecord Label: First Smile Entertainment\nCatalog No.: FSCA-10063\nReleased in 1998 by Enix, Star Ocean: The Second Story was an RPG that pushed the boundaries in many ways. Offering the option of choosing between a male and female protagonist, it encouraged multiple playthroughs; the story, while generally the same between them, offered aspects of the story that could only be discovered by playing as both characters. In addition, the multiple endings in the game as well as the multiple difficulty levels was something not seen in many RPGs at the time. Composed by Motoi Sakuraba, the soundtrack to the game also broke the mold for many RPGs at the time. Utilizing his progressive rock background, he was able to create a rather refreshing score for an RPG. How well does he do? You'll just have to read to find out.\nStar Ocean: The Second Story was the first tri-Ace game I had ever played. At the same time, it was also the first time I had been exposed to Motoi Sakuraba's work. The PlayStation era had its fair amount of gems by reputable composers with whom I was familiar, such as Nobuo Uematsu and his Final Fantasy VIII score as well as Yasunori Mitsuda and his Chrono Cross score. Having mainly listened to them in my early years of video game music, I was used to the powerful melodies provided from Uematsu and the stirring, emotional pieces with ethnic influences from Mitsuda. However, when I first heard the music in the context of the game, I was utterly amazed. I thought it worked wonderfully in context.\nThe battle themes, with all their variety and quantity, were surprising, as most RPGs at the time utilized only a single battle and boss theme, aside from the final battle. The progressive rock style was also something that instantly captured my heart. \"Stab the Sword of Justice,\" the normal battle theme, is a driving piece with an intense percussion rhythm and a mixture of a pseudo-brass / synth melodies to comprise the meat of the piece. Exhilarating and intense, I looked forward going into every battle I could. Ten years later, I'm still not bored with it. While only a single battle theme was used, there were a ton of boss battle themes. \"Dynamite,\" the normal boss theme, showcases Sakuraba's ability to pump up the listener. Focused more on chaotic synth work, it creates this feeling of intensity that matched the hectic nature of many bosses. \"Incarnation of Devil\" is just one of the many fine examples of a perfectly executed progressive rock battle theme from Sakuraba. The biggest draw for this battle theme is its amazing melody. It's catchy, works well with the accompaniment, and best of all, the way it changes as it progresses. There are parts that are heavily focused on the bass, and there are times where Sakuraba decides to improvise. In the end, it's a culmination of the best things about Sakuraba's battle themes. He must love it as much as I do because it finds its way onto every tri-Ace game he's worked on!\nBattles with the true villains of the game, and I'll avoid spoilers, were definitely where my favorite battle themes were features. Themes like \"Tangency\" and \"Mighty Blow\" with their chaotic nature truly portrayed the intense and evil nature of these enemies. In both the synth and percussion work, Sakuraba is able to craft amazing rhythms and harmonies. \"Beast of Prey\" is a rather interesting boss theme. To be honest, when I first heard it, I was a bit put off by it. However, the longer the battle went on, the more I couldn't get enough of it. Utilizing a harpsichord synth over the familiar progressive rock percussion work featured on the album was something I would have never thought of. In the end, it worked wonders. My personal favorite battle theme belongs to my favorite battle as well. The final battle theme, \"Integral Body and Imperfect Soul,\" takes a major departure from the majority of the battle themes. While it still has that progressive feel to it, mainly in the accompanying percussion, the raw power and emotion behind this piece is stirring. Extremely evil in nature, it does so much to really showcase how insane the final boss really is. After hearing it in game, I was blown away. It's quite the fitting end for the ultimate battle.\nSo I've talked about my love for Sakuraba's battle themes, yet at the time I played this, I expected evocative melodies and emotion. Well, fortunately, Sakuraba was able to deliver in that department as well. In fact, some of my favorite soothing pieces came from my experience with this game. From the moment you step foot on Expel, you are greeted with a harmonious creation, \"The Venerable Forest,\" featuring woodwinds, harpsichord, and harp. It's an extremely beautiful piece that conjures up images of a forest. Even after stepping out of the forest for the first time, I expected something more akin to a Uematsu town theme, but my expectations were surpassed once again. Keeping with the same instrumentation and overall flow of the piece as \"The Venerable Forest, \"Pure a Stream,\" the first town theme, simply made me stop playing the game and listen to the town theme for about 15 minutes. It's a breathtaking piece full of emotion and peace. The emotion doesn't stop there though. \"Cuddle\" plays as you are ready to set off on your adventure into the great expanse of Exper. The beautiful, flowing passages heard in this theme have an adventurous sound to them, while still retaining the peace and harmony heard in \"The Venerable Forest\" and \"Pure a Stream.\"\nMoving from the emotional pieces that utilize flowing woodwinds, it brings us to, in my opinion, one of the most emotional pieces of the PlayStation era. The feeling that Sakuraba instilled within \"Theme of Rena\" is absolutely breathtaking. Hauntingly beautiful, the entire premise of the piece relies on powerful operatic vocals with a simple harp accompaniment. As the piece advances, woodwind and strings are added, only heightening the beauty and mystery of the piece. It's a very fitting character theme for a character whose past is shrouded in mystery. In addition to the main theme, this theme can be heard in a few other pieces. There is also a music box version of the theme. While not as emotionally stirring as its counterpart, it still has that inherent air of mystery and beauty about it. \"A Quirk of Fate\" opens the second disc and is a very haunting arrangement of \"Theme of Rena.\" It focuses more on strings and woodwind passages, with some harp arpeggios, at an increased tempo to create something that retains all the qualities of the original. The last arrangement of \"Theme of Rena\" can be heard in \"Lose One's Illusion.\" This is, by far, the saddest arrangement. Acoustic guitar, brass, and strings are the dominant aspect of this version. With these instrument choices, Sakuraba is able to create a version that seems bogged down with a heightened sense of sadness. It, along with every other version of this theme, is the one piece I looked forward to hearing whenever I played this game.\nAnother clear difference from my normal experience with Square Enix RPGs that I mainly played at the time was the way in which dungeon themes were written. Most of Uematsu's and Mitsuda's dungeon themes were very befitting. Creating a perfect balance, for the most part, with the area it was depicting in the game, it was always a treat to hear what was in store whenever I would traverse a new dungeon. Boy, was I surprised when I first heard the dungeon themes in this game?! Not to say they were bad, far from that, but they definitely shattered the mold of how I viewed dungeon themes from henceforth. The first dungeon you encounter, in order to save Rena, had an aptly named \"Rescue Operation\" piece that played in the background. Full of energy and in a progressive rock style, it was motivating and full of urgency. It was quite fitting for the game and it's one of those aspects that instantly drew me to Sakuraba's music. The mixture of brass, pulsating percussion, and synthesized keyboard work was a marvelous creation and one I fell in love with instantly. It's still one of my favorite dungeon themes from Sakuraba! In fact, many of the progressive focused dungeon themes were absolutely amazing in my playthrough of this game.\nThe best dungeon theme on the first disc, and at the real climax of the game, came with \"KA.MI.KA.ZE.\" Take one part pulsing and energetic percussion, mix it with one part pulsing brass, and add an extremely catchy melody and you'll get this result. It's an absolute marvel, despite being rather straightforward, and really fits the urgency of the situation encountered in the game. This game also spawned my love for one of my favorite dungeon themes of all time, and definitely within the Star Ocean universe. \"Mission to the Deep Space\" is a progressive rock piece near and dear to my heart. Featured in EVERY Star Ocean game to date, since the re-release of the original Star Ocean on the PSP, it must be one of Sakuraba's defining pieces for the series as well. And why shouldn't it be? It's extremely well-crafted piece of music, filled with futuristic synth, amazing percussion and keyboard work, and brass melodies. The final dungeon theme, \"The Ultimate Terror,\" departs from the norm for dungeon themes on this soundtrack, but it's extremely fitting. It's a very dark piece filled with bass guitar, crashing percussion, and extremely foreboding synth and string harmonies.\nThe ending music for the game is also rather emotional. \"Resolution\" is a fairly straightforward piano piece. While nothing ultimately spectacular, the way the piano climaxes as the piece progresses is really nice. \"We Form in Crystals,\" while being one of my least favorite Sakuraba ending themes in retrospect, really finishes off the game quite nicely. It's a very ethereal piece, full of violin passages and choral accents. While the accompaniment can be rather repetitive after a while, it's the beauty of the melody that really makes it a worthwhile listen. The main theme for the game (and series, subsequently) is also rather spectacular. \"Star Ocean Forever\" is a heroic composition filled with futuristic sounds with hints of \"Mission to the Deep Space\" interspersed throughout it. The brass melody is intoxicating and the militaristic percussion that accompaniment makes for a well-crafted composition.\nTo put it bluntly, Star Ocean: The Second Story is one of my favorite Playstation era soundtracks. The soundtrack release does have some flaws, such as the inclusion of every instrument theme that can be played in the game to help accentuate various skills in the item creation system. Nevertheless, overall it's a fantastic release. Full of amazing battle themes, dungeon themes, and emotion, it's what first drew me into the world of Motoi Sakuraba. Sure, he may not always be the freshest of composers in terms of musical ideas, but his progressive rock is always enjoyable. In my opinion, his work on all the Star Ocean titles his where most of his creativity is truly shown, and while this is not his best Star Ocean soundtrack in terms of the technical details (that one belongs to Star Ocean: Till the End of Time), it is easily the Star Ocean soundtrack that is the most successful on a personal level. I highly recommend this one to all fans of Motoi Sakuraba or those who are looking for something a bit different from the VGM scene. Since it was just recently re-released as Star Ocean: Second Evolution, you might want to pick up the soundtrack if you haven't already.",

        "title": "Legislation by litigation",
        "raw_content": "Back to Opinion columns. Legislation by litigation\nBy a wide margin, the U.S. Senate voted to exempt firearm manufacturers from lawsuits over the illegal use of their products. (See articles on CBS News and Fox News.)\nLeftists are squealing that this is political payback for the influential National Rifle Association. They are right. The Republicans \"know where their bread is buttered\", if you will. They know that supporters of the right to keep and bear arms are critical to their electoral success.\nBut more importantly, this is simply the right thing to do! It makes no sense that firearm manufacturers should be held accountable for the actions of criminals. Gun makers are not the ones committing illegal, violent acts with the products they produce. The only ones responsible for gun violence are the criminals who commit illegal acts. There are already laws in place that deal with providing guns to criminals. The person who actually commits a crime should be the only one who is punished. Gun makers (absent evidence of actual criminal acts) should be left out of it.\nShould Ford or General Motors be held accountable for drunk driving, smuggling, or vehicular homicide? Should the makers of baseball bats be held accountable if a criminal uses their product to beat someone else? No. Blaming others for the actions of criminals undermines personal responsibility and sends a dangerous message to America's youth. When you do something bad, it is always someone else's fault. Somehow, millions of law-abiding Americans manage to own guns without using them to kill or maim others.\nBut there is a more insidious reason Leftists want to make firearm manufacturers liable in civil courts. Second Amendment supporters were a large reason Republicans took over Congress in 1994, after Bill Clinton and Congressional Democrats passed a ban on \"assault weapons\" (which has since expired) and the Brady Bill. Now, anti-gun forces, who have faced the wrath of voters for legislative moves to limit firearm rights, now seek to use the courts to legislate what they could not do through the political process. They hope they can effectively limit the right to keep and bear arms by litigating firearm manufacturers out of business. This legislation by litigation is a perversion of the judicial system.\nIndiana Senator Evan Bayh voted no on this legislation. Once again, Bayh chose to side with Leftists like John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer, and Chuck Schumer (all of whom also voted no) over the law-abiding gun owners of Indiana.\nIn 2004, Republican Senate candidate Marvin Scott warned Hoosiers that Evan Bayh voted with Hillary Clinton far more often than not. In fact, Scott's campaign Web site notes that \"Evan Bayh votes with liberal Democrats John Kerry, John Edwards and Hillary Clinton nearly 90% of the time.\" Unfortunately, Hoosier voters did not pay attention, voting to send Indiana's golden boy back to the Senate for another six years.\nI have said many times that Evan Bayh is \"Bill Clinton without the immorality\". Bayh is a master at appearing to be \"moderate\" and hiding his support for big government and his Left-leaning voting record. Even as Hoosiers voted decisively to send George W. Bush back to the White House for four more years, they still sent Evan Bayh back to the Senate to oppose the President's agenda.\nI think it is unfortunate that Marvin Scott's race was not more of a priority for Indiana Republicans, especially given Bayh's \"rising star\" status in the national Democratic Party. However, If Bayh runs for President in 2008, he will have a more difficult time clothing himself as a moderate Hoosier Democrat. Republicans at the national level will much more aggressively examine and criticize Bayh's record than Indiana Republicans did in 2004.",

        "raw_content": "Club: FC Admira Wacker M\u00f6dling | Opening: 1967 | Capacity: 10,600\nThe BSFZ-Arena, previously known as Bundesstadion S\u00fcdstadt, was built between 1965 and 1967. Before, Admira had played their home games in the Jedlesee area in the north of Vienna, but their sponsor, the predecessor of utilities company EVN, wanted them to play closer to their premises and offered them a piece of land to build a new stadium on.\nThe Bundesstadion S\u00fcdstadt officially opened on 4 March 1967 with a league match between Admira and Wacker Innsbruck (3-1). The first goal was scored by Willy Kreuz.\nThe stadium underwent several refurbishments in the summer of 2008 and at the same time changed name to Trenkwalder-Arena following a naming rights sponsorship deal. The name changed again to BSFZ-Arena in 2012 following a new sponsorship deal.\nHow to get to the BSFZ-Arena\nThe BSFZ-Arena is located in the town of Maria Enzersdorf, which is located in the south of the Vienna metropolitan area. The distance from central Vienna is about 13 kilometres.\nThe stadium is best reached with the Badner Bahn commuter rail. Station Maria Enzersdorf \u2013 S\u00fcdstadt lies right next to the stadium. Trains run from station Oper in the south of Vienna\u2019s city centre and also pass Meidling rail station, which has connections to other parts of Vienna. Trains run at least every 15 minutes. The journey from Oper takes about 34 minutes, that from Meidling 15 minutes.\nAn alternative is catching a train from Vienna\u2019s main railway station (Hbf) to Modling train station. Both commuter rail lines S2 and S4, and regional trains run to Modling. The journey takes 20 to 25 minutes and trains run very frequent. From Modling station it\u2019s a 25-minute walk to the stadium.\nAddress: Johann Steinb\u00f6ckstr. 5B, A-2344 Maria Enzersdorf\nAdmira Wacker Tickets\nTickets for Admira games can be bought online or at the Fan Shop at the stadium.\nTickets can also be bought at the ticket windows of the stadium on the day of the match.\nExpect to pay between \u20ac18.00 and \u20ac26.00 for a seat at the main stand or \u20ac14.00 for a place at the terrace behind the goal.\nEmail office@flyeralarmadmira.at for more information.\nPhotos of the BSFZ-Arena\nFlyeralarmadmira.at \u2013 Official website of Admira Wacker Modling.\nWien.info \u2013 Online travel guide for Vienna.\nWienerlinien.at \u2013 Vienna public transport information.",

If the international sanctions regime is to have a chance of succeeding, Asian countries will have to close Iranian banks openly operating in their jurisdictions to curb the Islamic Republic's ability to obtain illicit commodities; otherwise, the sanctions will ultimately fail.\nThe United Nations, the European Union and the United States have taken steps to isolate Iranian banks that are suspected of financially facilitating the purchase of illegal goods via the international financial system. The United Nations, for example, has blacklisted four Iranian financial institutions for their role in proliferating weapons of mass destruction - the Sepah, Melli and Mellat banks, and the First East Export Bank of Iran.

        "raw_content": "CAN YOU USE YOUR PART-TIME EARNINGS TO QUALIFY FOR A MORTGAGE OR REFINANCE?\nIf you supplement your income with part-time work, that income might not be considered if you are purchasing or refinancing a home. According to syndicated columnist Kenneth R. Harney, income isn't always income. In his Sept. 29, 2013 column, he asked: If you make $42,000 from your regular full-time job and another $18,000 by working part time at a second job, isn't your gross income $60,000? One federal agency, the Internal Revenue Service, will tell you that it is. However, mortgage lenders, especially Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Federal Housing Administration, will tell you that part-time income generally isn't \"qualifying income\" for mortgage purposes until it's been flowing for a couple of years. Depending on your specific circumstances, however, the extra $18,000 could be considered if you can document that you've been receiving the extra money steadily for two years and the pay is likely to continue. Harney's column goes on to state:\nThe problem can be especially severe for borrowers with moderate incomes who have solid credit histories and have taken on second jobs to support their families. Robert Montalbo, a loan officer in San Antonio,Texas, with Premier Nationwide Lending, a mortgage-banking firm, says he sees many creditworthy applicants who 'get a (part-time) second job to make ends meet' and who simply want a piece of the American dream - to buy a home of their own. 'Even if they can show they've worked at that part-time job for 16 months straight, I may have to turn them down,' Montalbo said.\nHarney tells the story of a branch manager with the Mortgage Network in Danvers, Massachusetts who recounted an experience over a year ago. The manager earned $96,000 a year. He had been self-employed as a certified public accountant for 12 years but had to close his business because of a heart condition. However, two of the CPA's previous clients persuaded him to accept part-time positions for their firms. He received regular salaries from both companies but had worked for only one of them for more than two years. As a result, only the salary from that company qualified as income for mortgage application purposes; the earnings from the other were deemed ineligible by underwriters. The branch manager at the mortgage company had to deny the CPA a mortgage because his second job was not on the books for two years. He had to abide by the guidelines, in this particular case, Fannie Mae's rules.\nJust another constraint to the recovery of the housing market. Statistically speaking, 7.9 million Americans were employed part-time \"for economic reasons\" in August 2013 - 4.8 million worked part-time because of \"slack work or business conditions,\" 2.7 million \"could only find part-time work\" - and 19.3 million worked part time for \"noneconomic reasons\" The proportion of jobs that are part time has been climbing and is now at 20 percent, up from 17 percent shortly before the recession (which official began September 2008). The figures could be higher now because of businesses seeking to avoid paying insurance premiums for full-time employees, especially since the passage of the Affordable Care Act.\nHarney states: The two-year rule for counting part-time income has been an industry standard for years, and was recently incorporated into regulations adopted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I say, standard practice is not a law or regulation that has been formally adopted and it doesn't have to be that way. But because homeowners - or the general public - have no lobbying money or power, they have to tolerate some rules that are arbitrary and not in favor of the mortgage applicant.\nSource: The Seattle Times, Sept. 29, 2013",

Michelin is the tire choice. Michelin, the world's leading tire manufacturer, announced today it will be the first major technical partner to support the radical Project 56 DeltaWing prototype car in the 2012 running of the world's greatest endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Michelin has developed a tire solution that pushes the performance envelope and matches the innovative DeltaWing strategy to reduce by half the weight, power, aerodynamic drag, and fuel and tire usage of a Le Mans prototype race car - while delivering the same speed and performance. The Michelin tire sizes for the DeltaWing project are: 10/58-15 (front) and 31/62-15 (rear)\nPhoto 2/2 | Michelin Teams with Innovative DeltaWing Project for 2012 Running of 24 Hours of Le Mans\nTires are a critical part of the DeltaWing design and Michelin relied heavily on its own history of winning endurance races while developing these tires. The four-wheeled DeltaWing features a virtual three-point layout with narrow front track, wide rear track and significantly reduced aerodynamic drag. With this unique chassis layout, the tire solution presented distinct challenges.\n\"The DeltaWing presents exciting new territory for Michelin to explore,\" said Nick Shorrock, director of competition, Michelin. \"Reducing energy consumption and materials - while maintaining, or even enhancing performance - is especially relevant in meeting the needs of consumers worldwide. Project 56 takes fresh ideas and puts them into a dramatic new package and we look forward to these challenges and opportunities,\" said Shorrock.\nDuring the development process, Michelin engineers worked side-by-side with the DeltaWing team in order to understand the speed, load and stresses that the tires might experience.\n\"Michelin is the clear technical and environmental leader in motorsports in the international marketplace,\" said Highcroft Racing team owner and DeltaWing leader Duncan Dayton. \"Michelin and its technical partner teams have won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the past 14 consecutive years, so everyone involved in the program is tremendously excited to have Michelin on-board,\" said Dayton.\n\"The announcement of the DeltaWing project at Le Mans this year drew enormous interest around the world - and not just from race fans,\" said Shorrock. \"The car is very different. People look at this car and say 'How will it turn?' and they recognize that there are some very interesting ideas at work. We look forward to being part of the answers.\"\nMichelin has significantly extended the wear rate of its tires and reduced the number of tires used by its technical partner teams at Le Mans by more than 20 percent in the past three years. Michelin also has extensive experience in running multiple stints- two, three, four or even five - on the same set of tires in endurance racing.\n\"Michelin has logged hundreds of thousands of miles at Le Mans working with a wide array of different cars in varied conditions. The 2011 Le Mans winning Audi R18 diesel prototype was able to run five full stints - or 55 laps (454 miles) - on just one set of Michelin tires during the 2011 race,\" said Dayton. \"No one can match that kind of tire performance.\"\nDesigned by former Lola Cars chief designer Ben Bowlby, the DeltaWing car is currently being constructed by racing legend Dan Gurney at the All American Racers facilities in Santa Ana, Calif. On-track testing is expected to begin late this year.\nThe \"56th entry\" at Le Mans is a special invitation extended by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest, the organizers of the annual 24 Hours of Le Mans race, to encourage innovation and the introduction of new technologies. The 56th entry may race outside the standard technical classifications.\nThe 80th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans will be June 16-17, 2012, at the 8.47-mile Circuit de la Sarthe, approximately 90 miles southwest of Paris.",

Later, students may experience additional benefits - ones they didn't know to expect at the beginning.\nBy Justin Stone, TCC Originator\nWe are the products of our Habit Energies (\u201cVashana\u201d in Sanskrit), and we in turn have built these Habit Energies. Thus it can be a vicious circle. When these Energies grow too strong they become Tendencies (\u201cSamskara\u201d in Sanskrit), and these may last through many lifetimes. These Tendencies are some of the reasons people have uncontrollable drinking problems\u2013which they don\u201dt understand\u2013explosive temper outbursts, fits of despondency, etc. It is hard to fight against such things when you don't know what you're fighting.\nHow does all this begin? When there is a release of energy, accompanied by the mental stimulus associated with it, a \u201cVritti\u201d (Sanskrit) or shallow groove is formed on the brain. Repeated release of the same energy\u2013as when one finds solace in drink and therefore imbibes each time adisappointment is encountered\u2013develops the shallow groove into a deeper Habit Energy. This in turn takes over our lives. If you will introspect, you will find that most of our actions are habitual. We practise piano to develop these Habit Energies so our playing becomes \u201cmuscle memory\u201d. We learn languages this way. Some actions become so habitual, such as shaving in the morning, that we often don't remember whether we performed them or not.\nThe state of someone's Chi creates \u201cvibes\u201d, as we all know. Sometimes we meet someone and get \u201cbad vibes\u201d when that person's Chi is out of balance. We can't explain it\u2013and we often ignore it\u2013but we are reacting to that individual's energy field. Such reactions are usually reliable.",

        "title": "Surf & Turf - Take a Hike!",
        "raw_content": "posted Aug 8, 2012, 8:10 AM by Justin P\nLast weekend, we left the Raleigh area early on Friday for a weekend of whitewater, hiking, and waterfalls. To break up the long drive out, we stopped to view some waterfalls on the way. Our first stop was Toms Creek Falls in North Cove just north of Marion. Exiting the interstate at exit 86, we headed north on US-221 for a few miles and turned onto Huskins Branch Road and then just over a mile drive to the parking lot before crossing Toms Creek. From the parking lot, there is a short, 1/2 mile hike to the falls. Toms Creek is a beautiful, 60-foot cascade and we spent some time enjoying the waterfall and taking photos. We also stopped to check out the mica mine next to the falls and picked up a couple of souvenirs. Then we headed back and drove back towards Marion and stopped for lunch at Subway.\nBack on the interstate, we headed towards Asheville and then headed north on I-26 and back into Pisgah National Forest, to the Big Ivy or Coleman Boundary area. After entering the forest, Dillingham Road (Forest Service Road 74) becomes gravel, narrow, and windy so the 8 mile drive to the end was quite long. But very scenic. We passed Snake's Den Rock, a giant cliff along the side of the road and made a stop at Walker Falls, a waterfall right on the side of the road. Then we finished up the drive to the end and parked. The 0.5 mile trip to Douglas Falls from the parking area actually took less time than the drive in. Although the water flow was a little low, Douglas Falls was quite beautiful nonetheless. A 70-foot straight drop over a cliff, Douglas Falls is beautiful even when not flowing heavily. And it is possible to walk behind the falls to see it from different angles. The trail continues on, eventually leading to Craggy Gardens on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but we needed to get going. So back to the cars and along the gravel road. Passing Snake's Den Rock, some people were getting ready to climb.\nFinally, we made it back to paved roads and continued on I-40 just past the state line into Tennessee and to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. A storm had recently passed through, knocking down a tree on a small road leading to the park. Some men were out with chainsaws cutting the tree up and I tried to go around, but got stuck in the mud! Luckily, the men helped push me out and we continued to the park. Since no one else had arrived yet, Sandy and I headed to Cosby for dinner at Carver's Apple House. I had eaten here before and knew it would be a good dinner. By the time we made it back to the Cosby camping area, most of the rest of the group had arrived. We set up the tent and then hung out around the campfire for a bit before getting to bed.\nIn the morning, we headed to Wildwater for our rafting trip. The tour guides went through some safety information and then we broke into groups with individual guides for our rafting. Our guide was Channing. After getting our equipment, we piled into the school bus with the rafts on the roof and headed just over the state line to put in our rafts near the power plant. We rafted down the Pigeon River back towards Hartford. Although much of the run was flat and calm, there were quite a few good rapids and we all got thoroughly wet. I was at the front of the raft on the right side and definitely took the majority of splashes. But approaching some of the rafts, we splashed each other and got thoroughly wet. Towards the end at a calm stretch of the river, we all jumped out of the raft and went for a quick swim in the river. Then we got back in the raft and finished up, arriving back at Wildwater. We had lunch and took showers at Wildwater before heading out for more turf.\nFrom Wildwater, we headed towards Gatlinburg and into Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Turning left at stoplight #8, we followed Cherokee Orchard Road to the Rainbow Falls Trail parking area. Although less 2.5 miles in length, the trail has a steady uphill slope, starting from the beginning as it heads up Mount LeConte. For most of the way, the trail follows LeConte Creek, with the soothing sound of running water audible for nearly the entire trip. It had rained in Gatlinburg as we started, but died down to a light drizzle or less once we hit the trails. The temperature and humidity made me take off my rain jacket quickly to stay as cool as possible. The last mile of the trail crosses LeConte Creek twice on footbridges with a few smaller waterfalls at the crossings. But there was no mistaking the real waterfall. At 80 feet, it is the tallest single-drop waterfall in the park. We spent a while here taking photos and enjoying the beautiful waterfall. Near the base, there was a lot of mist and one could easily see the potential for rainbow on a sunnier day. As we were getting to leave, a squirrel popped up. He wasn't afraid of humans at all. In fact, he let us pet him and ate peanuts out of our hand. We named him Barry. After giving Barry a treat, we headed back down the way we came; the trail continues to Mount LeConte, but it was getting late and we were getting hungry. We returned to the parking lot and drove into Gatlinburg to have Mexican at No Way Jose's then back to camp. We were very tired, but somehow managed to find the energy to play Bejeweled on an iPod as a group - easier to get the matches with four sets of eyes on the screen.\nAfter breaking camp, we headed to the Greenbrier area of Great Smoky Mountains National Park for one last waterfall before heading home. The road in is initially paved then turns to another scary gravel road for about 5 miles to the trailhead. The road includes a couple of narrow, one-lane bridges that made me a bit nervous, but we made it to the parking lot at the end. Starting out on the trail, a bridge crosses the river and the trail follows an old road bed for about a mile and a half. Although the trail has steady elevation gain, it is pretty easy at this point. At 1.5 miles, there is a \"traffic circle\" and the Ramsey Cascade Trail now becomes more narrow and steeper. The trail follows the Ramsey Prong of Little Pigeon River closely for the most of the way up. There are numerous cascades as the river flows next to the trail and so plenty of opportunities to stop for pictures. This part of the trail also goes through the largest old-growth forest left in the park with some enormous trees. Towards the end, the trail becomes very steep going up stairs of big rocks. Despite the steepness, the temperature dropped a bit at this elevation and the going was actually more comfortable than before. Finally, we made it to the top. Despite the rather challenging 4-mile hike to the waterfall, there were quite a few other people here. We took some photos and walked around in the waterfall basin. It was shallow, but slippery. And the water was very cold, but I took off my boots and socks and walked around in the pool a bit. Then we headed back down, much more quickly going down. Almost immediately after getting back to the car, it started raining - great timing, since some parts of the trail would have been treacherous in the rain. And then time to head home after another great weekend.",

        "title": "Neonatal sensitisation to latex",
        "raw_content": "Neonatal sensitisation to latex - a medical hypothisis\nJennifer Worth, formerly ward sister & midwife, and author of Eczema & Food Allergy and the books about her days as a midwife which resulted in the popular TV drama Call the Midwife\nBabies born in delivery rooms of hospitals are exposed to latex through skin and mucous membrane contact with prepowdered latex gloves worn by midwives and doctors, and through the inhalation of latex bound starch powder in the air of the delivery room.\nThis paper examines the hypothesis that they are at risk for latex sensitisation, and that part of the sharp increase of childhood asthma, eczema and anaphylaxis in the past thirty to forty years may be linked.\nThese possibilities seem hitherto unsuspected. In over seven hundred papers on latex allergy no mention of neo-natal exposure to latex has been found. Even obstetric papers discussing the risks for an atopic mother (atopic-a tendency to develop allergies) do not seem to anticipate any risk for the baby , who might also be atopic.\nLatex allergy is primarily regarded as an occupational hazard. This paper suggests that it is a hazard for every baby handled by latex gloves at birth.\nThe modern epidemic of allergic diseases is due to many, possibly thousands, of environmental and nutritional allergens. Whilst recognising that there are many other possible causes for infant sensitisation, this paper focuses specifically on latex and chemicals.\nNatural latex rubber is derived from Hevea brasiliensis. It contains many major and minor components, some of which are powerful allergens. The chemicals used in manufacture, and chemical sterilisers applied to the gloves can also act as contact allergens.\nAllergic reactions to latex gloves involve Type I and Type IV hypersensitivity reactions.\nType I - immediate reaction\nThis is an immunological response to allergens which react with immunoglobin E (IgE) antibodies carried on the mast cells and basophils. Symptoms include respiratory distress and asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, itching of the skin, swelling of the lips, tongue and throat, acute dizziness, abdominal pain, nausea, hypotension, anaphylaxis. Type I reactions occur as an immunological response to latex proteins, through skin contact and the inhalation of latex bound glove powder.\nType IV - cell mediated or delayed hypersensitivity\nAntibodies are not involved, and the reaction depends on activated T- lymphocytes. Symptoms of contact dermatitis result, including redness, swelling, thickening or cracking of the skin, and irritation. Type IV reactions are caused by contact with the chemicals used in glove manufacture and contact with the sterilising agents.\nThe most commonly observed clinical symptoms of latex allergy are asthma and eczema.\nThe manufacture of latex rubber gloves\nSurgical gloves have been used for most of this century with little ill effects. Manufacture used to be simple, mainly involving boiling the latex at high temperatures. The heat destroyed most of the natural proteins. Gloves were re-used, and were sterilised between uses by boiling or autoclaving. This further destroyed natural proteins. The gloves were supplied with no powder. Surgical gloves used to be made in the UK and European countries.\nDuring the 1970s demand for gloves increased, and manufacture changed. Gloves became cheap, disposable, and prepowdered. Chemical accelerators were added to the raw latex to speed up the manufacturing process, and sterilisation by means of chemicals was introduced. Patenting laws protected firms from naming these chemicals. It is difficult to discover what chemicals are used as they vary from firm to firm, and are constantly changing.\nModern disposable gloves are pre-powdered and the released powder floats in the air. Latex proteins have been shown to adhere to corn starch glove powder, thus creating a protein-polysaccharide complex which can act as a potent aero-allergen. This will be inhaled by anyone in the vicinity, and can cause acute inflammation of the lungs.\nNewson and Shaw have made a survey of starch particles and latex proteins in the air of two hospitals. Concentrations of up to 3667 particles per cubic metre were recorded in units where gloves were most frequently used. Rooms with no ventilation showed the highest recordings.\nDelivery rooms are small and frequently enclosed, but unfortunately the survey did not include a maternity unit. (Personal communication from Dr. S. W. B. Newson.)\nExposure of the newborn to latex\nThe first hands to touch a newborn baby will be those of a midwife wearing latex rubber gloves. The baby's skin will be handled all over, including sometimes a finger placed in the mouth. The umbilical cord will be handled. It will be clamped and cut. Is it possible for latex allergens to enter the blood stream via the umbilical cord? If pre-powdered latex gloves are used, the air of the delivery room will contain latex bound starch powder; this will be inhaled by the baby with its first breath.\nIn their early weeks of life, babies should be exposed as little as possible to contact allergens, aero-allergens and chemicals, and for many years there has been evidence linking early exposure with the development of allergic disease.\nThis paper has been criticised by several immunologists and paediatricians on the grounds that the short period of time during delivery in which a baby is exposed to latex, would not be sufficient to sensitise the baby. They point out that in health workers, large doses of the allergen, over a long period of time, are necessary for latex allergy to develop. But a new born baby is not an adult.\nIn 1977, E. E. Jarrett in Edinburgh showed, in newborn rats, that IgE sensitisation occurs more easily following the administration of minute doses of parenternal allergen than the administration of a large dose.\nThese experiments involved cows milk proteins. There have been no similar experiments conducted to assess the level of latex protein required to sensitise a baby. Until such experiments are conducted, and the findings published, no-one can say for certain that a low level of latex exposure at birth would be insufficient to sensitise a baby.\nNo signs of allergic reaction to latex have been reported in newborn babies. This is because at the time of sensitisation (called the sensitising event) there are no symptoms. Sensitisation is acquired, and it is only on repeated exposure that symptoms develop, starting weeks or years after the initial exposure.\nPremature babies and other babies in neo-natal intensive or special care units are at the greatest risk due to longer exposure to the latex allergens from gloves, and inhalation of aero-allergens. In addition latex is used in the equipment of neo-natal intensive care units.\nIncubators contain latex. Latex mattresses or rubber sheets are often used. Syringe plungers, vial tops, respiratory face masks, catheters, adhesives, and a great deal of other hospital equipment containing latex will be used, all of which will increase exposure. A premature baby is usually bottle-fed, and the teat may be made of latex.\nThere is a known link between lung disease and prematurity. Barnes et al. noted that:\n\"Prematurity is a major risk factor for wheezing, which is the mildest form of chronic lung disease. Around 50% of very low birthweight infants develop episodic lower respiratory illness in infancy.\"\nThis appears to be a relatively new phenomenon. Neither Conybeare on Asthma (1942) nor Christie Brown on Prematurity (1956)refers to a link between asthma and prematurity. Something must have happened in the care of premature babies during the past forty years to make prematurity a 50% risk factor in the development of lung disease.\nAccording to the National Eczema Society no figures are available about the incidence of eczema in children who were born prematurely. However, the letter pages of its Journal contain a high proportion of letters about babies with eczema who were also premature babies. This is anecdotal evidence, which deserves further investigation.\nLatex sensitisation may well be irreversible, and sensitised individuals will need to avoid latex altogether. However, this is virtually impossible, because many common household items encountered every day by the baby will include latex. This can be in the cot and pram, the sundry items like sheeting, reins, clothes, toys, rubber bands, elastic. Disposable nappies contain latex, and many health visitors today report chronic dermatitis or nappy rash in babies. Contact of mucosal surfaces with latex is particularly liable to lead to latex allergy. According to the customers' advisory service of Boots the Chemist, all dummies and about 40% of bottle teats are made from latex. The antigens can be absorbed through the oral mucosa. If the mother does not suspect that her baby has been sensitised to latex, and the possibility has not been suggested to her, she will not attempt to provide a latex-free environment for her child. Nor can she be expected to understand cross-reacting allergens.\nLatex is derived from a plant, and many every day plants seem to share a common allergen. Work is proceeding on identifying this allergen, and there may be more than one. Two known, specific cross-reactions occur with latex allergy:\n1. Food cross-reactions\n2. Plant and pollen cross-reactions\nLatex is very complex and exhibits about 200 distinct polypeptides, which are a major cause of Type I sensitivity. Allergens cross-reacting with latex antigens are found in various plant foods. Hevea brasiliensis is related to many tropical and sub tropical fruit trees and the Brehler study of 1997 identified fruit specific IgE antibodies in latex sensitive children, confirmed by RAST. Specifically: papaya, mango, avocado, banana, chestnut, passion fruit, fig, melon, kiwi, pineapple, peach, tomato. The Novembre study of 1997 identified the same fruit-specific IgE antibodies in latex sensitive children, and found, in addition, sensitivity to apricot, grape, pear, apple, orange and almond.\nIt is virtually impossible to avoid fruit when weaning a baby and, in any event, this would be undesirable for nutritional reasons. Banana shares many common epitopes with latex. Banana is nearly always given to a baby during weaning. The prevalence of eczema and asthma in children have both increased markedly in the latter half of this century. The National Eczema Society and the British Asthma Campaign both recognise food allergy and intolerance as being a contributory factor in eczema and asthma, but both societies state that the problem is multicausal and inexplicable. An underlying and unsuspected latex allergy, acquired at birth, might be a partial explanation.\nChestnuts and almonds are known to cross react with latex allergy. Children who are allergic to one type of nut are often allergic to other nuts, even though the nuts are not related botanically. Most children with a nut allergy also react to peanuts, even though peanuts are not a tree nut, but a legume. There may be a soya connection, as many children who are allergic to peanuts, are also intolerant of soya. The British Asthma Campaign and the National Eczema Society both report that soya is becoming an increasing problem factor.\nPeanut allergy is important, because it is a common cause of anaphylaxis, and fatal reactions occur. Its prevalence has increased substantially, with one in two hundred 4 year olds now having this form of allergy. In 1996 Dr. Pamela Ewan of Cambridge stated that peanut allergy was known to occur before the age of three in 55% of children with this condition, and during the first year of life in 17%, for which there was no known cause. A study from France found that 8% of babies up to age 4 months had IgE antibodies to peanut allergies. A study from Southampton last year found that 80% of children with peanut allergy reacted to their first known exposure to peanut containing foods. This indicated that they were already sensitised.\nIn spite of international research and speculation no cause has been found.\nI suggest that children who are allergic to peanuts might have been sensitised at birth to latex, and that peanut allergy could be a secondary cross reaction. No research has been conducted in this field.\n2. Pollen and plant cross reactions\nNatural latex shares IgE epitopes with certain grasses and weed pollens, specifically mugwort, ragweed, timothy grass, and birch. These are all common plants in temperate zones, and produce a great deal of pollen. In children who react violently to pollen the possibility of a cross reaction to an underlying latex allergy might be considered.\nHevea brasiliensis is a euphorbia. This genus contains over 1000 species, of which more than 100 are native to temperate zones. Most of these plants contain latex, a white juice which oozes from the stem, and which is highly allergenic. Euphorbias are a common cultivated and wild plant, and a child exposed at birth to latex might react on contact with the latex in most of these plants.\nNo research has been undertaken to suggest that contact dermatitis to euphorbias is related to latex dermatitis, but the possibility deserves examination.\nA new classification of plants based on their DNA structure was published in November 1998. The foregoing paragraphs about cross reactivity to the hevea brasiliensis are correct by the new DNA classification. (Personally checked by Dr. Mark Chase, head of molecular systematic studies at Jodrell Laboratory, Kew Gardens.)\nPart of the problem with environmental chemicals is the process of synergism - the phenomenon in which the combined action of two or more compounds is greater than the sum of the individual effects of each compound. Two chemicals, each of low level, in combination may increase their toxicities ten- fold over each of the chemicals when separate, and three chemicals may increase toxicities one hundred-fold.\nThe identity, numbers, and combinations of chemicals used in glove manufacture are unknown, and the effects on humans are unknown.\nAllergic reactions to contact with the chemicals used in glove manufacture and the chemical sterilisers used on gloves are well documented. The occupational hazards are widely recognized and warnings to staff are given.\nSearches by the Royal College of Midwives and the Royal College of Obstetricians (over two hundred papers) have revealed no literature suggesting that a newborn baby might also react allergically to these chemicals, and no warning that babies should not be touched by these gloves.\nMultiple chemical sensitivity is a concept not widely accepted by the medical profession. Nonetheless, pollutants, most of which are chemical, may interact with each other. There is now good evidence of widespread chemical reactions.\nUntil about the 1950s most babies in the UK were born at home. Gloves were expensive and re-used. They were boiled between each use. Many district midwives of my generation can remember that frequently, especially in rural areas, gloves were not worn at all. The drive for safer hospital delivery gained pace, and by the 1970s only 1% of babies were born at home. Hospital midwives deliver 75-80% of all births (Royal College of Midwives Information). Latex gloves are always worn.\nIn the past 15-20 years the dangers of cheap pre-powdered disposable gloves have been recognized, but although alternatives are available, they are over ten times more expensive. These expensive gloves are generally reserved for doctors. Nurses and midwives usually have to use the cheap ones. In 1992 the Nursing Times reported:\n\"It is not uncommon to pull from a box glove after glove with holes or tears, or fingers stuck together or missing, before finding two usable gloves.\"\nAll the while, latex bound starch powder will be flying into the air of the delivery room where the baby will be born.\nAllergists and immunologists, who have little knowledge of the day to day practicalities of midwifery, may be unaware of the degree of exposure for a baby. Midwives and obstetricians who are not trained in allergies, may be unaware of the process of sensitisation, particularly as the baby shows no sign of an allergic reaction in the first few days of life.\nLatex allergy in children is considered to be rare, because only a few children show an immediate and obvious hypersensitive reaction to latex. However, low levels of sensitivity may be latent, and not recognised without undergoing special investigative procedure. The child who has asthma, eczema, or a history of anaphylaxis may be tested for common allergens, such as milk or house dust mite, but testing babies or children for latex is rare, because it is unsuspected.\nBeyond the special case of children with spina bifida, in whom latex allergy has been reported in up to 70%, there has been very little study of latex allergy in atopic children, and there is no evidence on the means of sensitisation.\nThe Niggemann study of 1998 of children with urticaria, eczema, asthma and anaphylaxis, who are latex allergic, states:\n\"Medical history, certain foods, pacifiers, mattress composition, toys, and socio-economic data proved not to be a significant risk factor in latex sensitisation.\" (my italics), and concludes:\n\"Besides the number of operations and the atopic pre-disposition no other defining risk factors for developing sensitisation or allergy to latex can be identified in children up to five years of age.\" (my italics)\nThe study only examined children who were over one year of age, and states:\n\"It cannot therefore be excluded that there were patients who were already sensitised at the age of one year.\" (my italics)\nThe report concludes: \"Latex allergy occurs in children with no known risk factor for latex sensitisation\".\nIn spite of international research, no-one has been able to explain why allergic diseases in childhood have increased so much in the latter half of this century.\nEpidemiological thinking today is that early life exposure to allergen is more likely to lead to sensitisation than at any other time in life. Researchers are examining the effects of many possible culprits: house dust mite, cows milk, wheat, pollens, cat epithelium, and many more. Unless latex and the chemicals used in glove manufacture are included, such research will be incomplete.\nThe upward spiral continues, and the number of atopic children has more than doubled in the past ten years alone. One in five children now have either asthma or eczema in childhood. Many babies today seem to be born with eczema or asthma, or to develop it within a few days of birth.\nAsthma and eczema are known clinical reactions to latex allergy, but it is possible that other allergic diseases might be traced to the same source. Sensitisation to any allergen renders the individual prone to hypersensitive reactions to other, unrelated substances, and the symptoms of allergic disease can be manifest in any system of the body, including the brain.\nPre-powdered latex gloves have been in use for about thirty-five years. A whole generation has been exposed to them at birth, possibly sensitising many children who are now adults and having children of their own. It is well known that the atopic tendency runs in families.\nThe questions must therefore be asked: are babies sensitised and develop the atopic condition by exposure to a powerful allergen at birth? or were they atopic in the first place and latex and chemical exposure at birth triggers the early development of allergic disease?\nThe Niggerman Report states:\n\"While it is well known that the atopic disposition plays a key role in developing sensitisation and clinical symptoms to latex allergy, there is no information about the beginning of sensitisation and the risk factors during the first years of life.\" (my italics)\nThe evidence is in keeping with the hypothesis that neo-natal exposure to latex from gloves worn at the time of delivery may be a significant sensitising exposure.\nResearch is needed. But more practical and more effective would be a ban on the use of pre-powdered latex gloves in maternity units. I call upon the Royal College of Midwives and the Royal College of Obstetricians to take action. Other groups such as the British Asthma Campaign or the Anaphylaxis Group could also act. Self-help groups, such as these, which are usually run by lay people, can be very influential.\nThousands of babies have severe asthma and eczema in the first weeks of life. Anaphylactic reactions are becoming more common. If there is the slightest possibility, even though it is unproven, that latex exposure at birth could be partly responsible, these gloves should be removed from use in maternity hospitals immediately. The risk is otherwise too great.\nAction Against Allergies (AAA)\nWe believe this hypothesis to be without precedent. The author makes it clear that there is no proof to substantiate her theory, but its very plausibility is compelling, and calls for research. The only real way to validate or disprove the theory would be an epidemiological study, but in the first place review if necessary. Jennifer Worth has been invited by the British Asthma Campaign to apply for a research grant. She has also been asked by the Cochrane Airways Group, and the Cochrane Skin Group to undertake a systematic review study. For personal reasons, she can undertake neither. Any research student who could follow up these offers is invited to contact AAA.\nCopyright Jennifer Worth - enquiries regarding reproduction of this essay in any form should be addressed to Action Against Allergies PO Box 278, Twickenham, TW1 4QQ.\nThis essay won a special award for outstanding merit 1998 Essay Competition.

The Customer shall pay the interest together with the overdue amount.\n8.1 If the Customer becomes subject to any of the events listed in clause 8.2, or the Supplier reasonably believes that the Customer is about to become subject to any of them and notifies the Customer accordingly, then, without limiting any other right or remedy available to the Supplier, the Supplier may cancel or suspend all further deliveries under the Contract or under any other contract between the Customer and the Supplier without incurring any liability to the Customer, and all outstanding sums in respect of Goods delivered to the Customer shall become immediately due.\n(a) the Customer suspends, or threatens to suspend, payment of its debts, or is unable to pay its debts as they fall due or admits inability to pay its debts, or (being a company) is deemed unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986, or (being an individual) is deemed either unable to pay its debts or as having no reasonable prospect of so doing, in either case, within the meaning of section 268 of the Insolvency Act 1986, or (being a partnership) has any partner to whom any of the foregoing apply;\n(b) the Customer commences negotiations with all or any class of its creditors with a view to rescheduling any of its debts, or makes a proposal for or enters into any compromise or arrangement with its creditors [other than (where the Customer is a company) where these events take place for the sole purpose of a scheme for a solvent amalgamation of the Customer with one or more other companies or the solvent reconstruction of the Customer];\n(c) (being a company) a petition is filed, a notice is given, a resolution is passed, or an order is made, for or in connection with the winding up of the Customer, other than for the sole purpose of a scheme for a solvent amalgamation of the Customer with one or more other companies or the solvent reconstruction of the Customer;\n(e) a creditor or encumbrancer of the Customer attaches or takes possession of, or a distress, execution, sequestration or other such process is levied or enforced on or sued against, the whole or any part of its assets and such attachment or process is not discharged within 10 Business Days;\n(f) (being a company) an application is made to court, or an order is made, for the appointment of an administrator or if a notice of intention to appoint an administrator is given or if an administrator is appointed over the Customer;\n(g) (being a company) a floating charge holder over the Customer\u2019s assets has become entitled to appoint or has appointed an administrative receiver;\n(h) a person becomes entitled to appoint a receiver over the Customer\u2019s assets or a receiver is appointed over the Customer\u2019s assets;\n(j) the Customer suspends, threatens to suspends, ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or substantially the whole of its business;\n(k) the Customer\u2019s financial position deteriorates to such an extent that in the Supplier\u2019s opinion the Customer\u2019s capability to adequately fulfil its obligations under the Contract has been placed in jeopardy; and\n(l) (being an individual) the Customer dies or, by reason of illness or incapacity (whether mental or physical), is incapable of managing his or her own affairs or becomes a patient under any mental health legislation.\n8.3 Termination of the Contract, however arising, shall not affect any of the parties\u2019 rights and remedies that have accrued as at termination. Clauses which expressly or by implication survive termination of the Contract shall continue in full force and effect.\n9.1 Nothing in these Conditions shall limit or exclude the Supplier\u2019s liability for:\n(e) any matter in respect of which it would be unlawful for the Supplier to exclude or restrict liability.\n(a) Any claim by the Customer which is based on any defect in the quality or condition of the bare printed circuit boards shall be notified to the Supplier within 28 days from the date of delivery. Where a claim is notified to the Supplier, the Supplier\u2019s liability extends only to the bare printed circuit boards and does not apply after components are added. The Supplier\u2019s liability shall not exceed the Contract price. The Supplier will not be responsible for any other costs.\n(b) The Supplier shall not be liable to the Customer for any indirect or consequential loss or damage (whether for loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of business, loss of contract, any economical or financial loss, expenses or any other claims for consequential compensation whatsoever) which occurs from the supply of bare printed circuit boards from the Supplier to the Customer.\n9.3 Any claim by the Customer which is based on any defect in the quality or condition of the Goods, or the failure thereof to correspond with specific action shall (whether or not delivery is refused by the Customer) be notified to the Supplier within 28 days from the date of delivery to the Delivery Location (see clause 4.2 above) or (where the defect or failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or the failure. If delivery of the Goods is not refused and the Customer does not notify the Supplier accordingly, the Customer shall not be entitled to reject the Goods and the Supplier shall have no liability for such defect or failure, and the Customer shall be bound to pay the price as if the Goods had been delivered in accordance with the Contract.\n10.1 The Supplier reserves all and any IPR to which it is legally entitled in respect of the Goods including (inter alia) the copyright in all documents, supplied or produced to the Customer in connection with the Goods and no such IPR may be communicated either directly or indirectly to any such person, firm or company without the Supplier\u2019s written consent.\nNeither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under the Contract to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event. A Force Majeure Event means any event beyond a party\u2019s reasonable control, which by its nature could not have been foreseen, or, if it could have been foreseen, was unavoidable, including strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (whether involving its own workforce or a third party\u2019s), failure of energy sources or transport network, acts of God, war, terrorism, riot, civil commotion, interference by civil or military authorities, national or international calamity, armed conflict, malicious damage, breakdown of plant or machinery, nuclear, chemical or biological contamination, sonic boom, explosions, collapse of building structures, fires, floods, storms, earthquakes, loss at sea, epidemics or similar events, natural disasters or extreme adverse weather conditions, or default of suppliers or subcontractors.\n(b) The Customer may not assign, transfer, charge, subcontract or deal in any other manner with all or any of its rights or obligations under the Contract without the prior written consent of the Supplier.\n(a) Any notice or other communication given to a party under or in connection with the Contract shall be in writing, addressed to that party at its registered office (if it is a company) or its principal place of business (in any other case) or such other address as that party may have specified to the other party in writing in accordance with this clause, and shall be delivered personally, sent by pre-paid first class post, recorded delivery, commercial courier, fax or e-mail.\n(b) A notice or other communication shall be deemed to have been received: if delivered personally, when left at the address referred to in clause 12.2(a); if sent by pre-paid first class post or recorded delivery, at 9.00 am on the second Business Day after posting; if delivered by commercial courier, on the date and at the time that the courier\u2019s delivery receipt is signed; or, if sent by by fax or e-mail, one Business Day after transmission.\n(a) If any court or competent authority finds that any provision of the Contract (or part of any provision) is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision or part-provision shall, to the extent required, be deemed to be deleted, and the validity and enforceability of the other provisions of the Contract shall not be affected.\n12.4 Waiver. A waiver of any right or remedy under the Contract is only effective if given in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default. No failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.\n12.6 Variation. Except as set out in these Conditions, any variation to the Contract, including the introduction of any additional terms and conditions, shall only be binding when agreed in writing and signed by the Supplier.\n12.7 Governing law and jurisdiction. The Contract, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, English law, and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.",

        "title": "Tips to Help Get Your Kids Ready for a Move",
        "raw_content": "Spring has officially arrived and we wanted to reach out from Teachers Moving. Your clients might be closing on their house or just starting the process of putting it on the market. In advance of their upcoming move we thought it would be helpful to pass along advice for making sure their children are okay. Parents worry so much about their kids, especially during a move, and we hope to reduce that stress just a little with these tips.\nGenerally, the younger the baby, the easier the move will be for the little one. It\u2019s important to note that infants and toddlers can pick up on stress before, during, and after your move.\nMake sure you spend adequate time with your kids during the process, so they will feel the security of a routine and consistency from you. You'll want to think about areas where they can take naps and where you can store necessary food during any of the transitions of the move. Also, think about comfort items like security blankets and favorite stuffed animals that shouldn\u2019t be packed by the movers and should stay with you to make the transition easier for your kids.\nPreschool-age Kids\nPreschool-age kids will have a little bit harder time adjusting during a move. Moving might initially be exciting for a child this age. But confusion can create stress for your child.\nTry to answer all the questions they have in the most basic terms possible and get ahead of situations by explaining things early. It also helps to stay positive about the move in front of them. A parent can set and influence the tone of the move when their child is younger. Because preschool-age children comprehend moving on a deeper level than toddlers, it can be a good idea to involve them in little ways in the moving process by trying to get their opinions on the new house and neighborhood.\nSchool-age and Teenage Kids\nMoving with grade school or teenage kids makes the change a little easier to explain, but brings its own set of challenges. By this time, kids often have friendships that will be interrupted by the move, and this can be a source of anxiety or sadness.\nInvolve your kids in a meaningful way throughout the moving process. Children in grade school enjoy projects, and you can appeal to this side of their development by giving them tasks to help with the move. Ask your teenager if they would like to design their room in the new home. Make sure you check in with them regularly and encourage emotional expressions. Suggest using a diary or journal. Also, you can host a goodbye party to give your children a fun atmosphere for a not-so-fun undertaking while they say (at least a temporary) goodbye to their friends.\nWe hope these tips offer some help and ideas, although we know that everyone has different circumstances with their families and when they are moving. We strive to provide help and service to our customers throughout the move process. Please call us if we can be of help.",

        "raw_content": "Creating a play or recreational area inside your home for your kids is an important project. Recruiting local general contractors is a very important step that you will take in your search. After all, there are many contracting professionals to choose from, and you want to make sure you are getting a professional with the right experience.\nUse Good Negotiating Skills\nOne of the best tools you have at your disposal is access to several contractors that you can get quotes without any obligation. If you let each of them know that they are one of several companies you are considering, they will be more likely to give you a competitive quote. Getting a fair price, as well as ensuring that you get quality work, are both important.\nLooking for Legitimate Contractors\nYou want to make sure you protect both your family and your bank account from scam artists. One way in which you can help protect the integrity of your project is by asking for references and viewing photos of previous work of this nature. If you have confidence that the contractor of your choice can handle this sort of work, the entire planning process will be much more enjoyable and rewarding in the end.\nChecking Out the Contractor's Background\nOne of the most important things you can do for your whole family is to check out the background of any contractors who will work with you. Although many companies are careful about who they hire, some may have employees with a criminal background. Because these contractors may be working near your children, you want to make sure that they pose no risk to the kids.\nAlthough contractor websites are a good way to evaluate their overall skills, don't hesitate to ask questions about their qualifications for things such as play areas. The contractor that you choose should be able to give you a reasonable plan for how they will accomplish your job. You should also find out how flexible they are regarding any unexpected changes to your original plans.\nFinding the right contractor to help you bring your ideas for a playroom or another area for your children to life is one of the most rewarding experiences you'll have. Choose the right contractor for the job, and your kids will reap the benefits. You'll have the complete satisfaction of knowing that your kids will be happy in their new playroom.",

        "title": "Pre Purchase Inspection & Other Pest Inspection - The Eliminator Pest Control",
        "raw_content": "A regular termite inspection should be part of every home or business owner\u2019s annual to-do list. Their home or business is almost certainly at risk and early detection can save them thousands of dollars, as many insurance policies do not cover termite damage.\nThe potential cost of future pest control and repairs incurred after buying a property infested by termites can run into thousands of dollars, or even tens of thousands if the structural integrity is affected. Anyone thinking of buying a new house is, therefore, encouraged to have a pre-purchase pest inspection and it is often a prerequisite for getting a mortgage.\nGood relationships with realty agents, builders and others involved in the selling and buying of property can produce great results, as pre-purchase inspections are common. If you can become their preferred pest control inspector there will always be a constant flow of business.\nIt is important to check any accreditation requirements needed for your area, as these vary from state to state and council to council. Become familiar with the latest Building Code of Australia (BCA) and Australian Standards 3660.1 through 3. Australian Standards are constantly being reviewed and at the time of writing this book the current one is 3660-2104 which supersedes 3660-2000. It will undoubtedly be replaced at some point in time. Other guidelines you should be familiar with are Australian Standards 4349.1 parts 1 and 3, which cover pre-purchase inspections and timber pests.\nKeeping detailed notes as you conduct your inspection is important, as are copies of photos and diagrams. To avoid any accusation of negligence it is important to be able to justify each part of your report later.\nDiscuss the various exception and liability clauses with the home owner or prospective buyer before starting the survey to make sure they understand what will and will not be covered in the report. It is important that this is clearly understood beforehand. Although these clauses will protect the pest inspector from most liability claims, any resulting negative publicity will benefit nobody.\nMake sure your insurance covers you in the unlikely event that problems arise after the inspection.\nThere are several basic steps involved, which are covered below. More complex buildings, factories or unusual locations will require a more in-depth inspection.\nTalk to the owners.\nThe quickest way to gain information about a property, along with details of previous treatments and infestations, is to ask the owners. Building extensions, recent tree felling or problems with leaking pipes or gutters will affect your inspection. You cannot rely completely on what the home owner tells you, as they may have forgotten or don\u2019t see the relevance of disclosing some information, but it can be a useful place to start. Sellers may even have a vested interest in not being completely honest.\nA thorough visual inspection\nStarting at the boundary or 50 metres from the home (whichever is the nearest), the entire property should be carefully checked for signs of termites. Arboreal nests, mud channels along fences or trees, old stumps and piles of timber will all signal areas that pose potential risk.\nAll parts of the property should be carefully inspected for signs of attack and areas of damp, including roofs and basements. Damp or rotting timber would act as warning signs for the presence of termites. If you search nearby you may find evidence of the insects such as mud-galleries, droppings, wings or actual termites.\nTake your time. Look for damage repair to joists or floorboards, or holes drilled in concrete slabs or pavers all of which might indicate a previous infestation and treatment. You may find termite bait traps or other signs that the home had been previously under attack.\nIf any pests are found they must be accurately identified before any recommendations are made. This is not always easy, as termite workers from closely related species can be similar in appearance but need different treatment.\nUse other tools if required.\nTermite inspectors today have a range of tools at their disposal to check for the pests. Moisture meters and thermal imaging can pinpoint risk areas, even behind walls. Microwave detectors can sense movement behind plaster and partitions. Fibre-optic scopes can see inside small, inaccessible areas. Termite radar detection tools can detect changes in the density of the walls or timbers, showing where damage has occurred.\nThere are even dogs available in Australia that are trained to detect termites.\nUsing any or all of these tools reduces your risk of overlooking an infestation. Their addition to your arsenal against termites can be useful when advertising, possibly giving you an advantage over competitors.\nThe report should cover, as a minimum, how the inspection was done, what was looked at and what was not and why. Your report template should be checked by a lawyer to make sure that the exclusion and liability limitation clauses are watertight. They will not cover you against negligence.\nThere may be areas of the property that are difficult to access but these are often the places that termites can exist undetected. Such areas should be clearly noted, along with the relevant part of the Australian Standards 4349.1. This defines reasonable access and states what is expected of an inspector and what is not. For example, they are not expected to remove screws or bolts to gain access.\nAny problems found, no matter how small, need to be detailed, along with photographs. The location of the threat, the species involved and other relevant information should be clearly covered in non-technical language.\nThe final section of the report is normally where recommendations are given on how to remove the immediate threat, as well as suggestions on how to avoid future infestations.\nSurface sprays are useful as a preventive measure. They should not be used near food nor pets. They are best applied to cracks and the inside of garbage bins.\nThe most common dust used is boric acid powder. It is a contact poison that is not repellent to cockroaches. If kept dry, it is effective for a long time. The powder adheres to the cockroach\u2019s body due to the electrostatic charge and is ingested when the roach grooms itself. Boric acid powder can take up to a week to have a noticeable effect on the cockroach population.\nThe powder can be dusted into cracks and crevices or lightly spread in areas where people and pets are unlikely to come into contact with it. Particular caution should be taken where children are present. A thin layer is more effective than a thick one.\nDiatomaceous earth and Pyrethrins are also often used in powder form, with the advantage that they are considered safer where children and pets are a concern. They act in a similar way to boric acid powder by desiccating the insect. Other cockroaches will be affected as they mingle and swarm near food.",

In the province of Almer\u00eda, only Velez-Blanco and Moj\u00e1car have been chosen as candidates this year.\n2017 is the third consecutive year of this competition and for this year the organizers have divided it into three phases. In the first phase readers proposed their candidates, then in the second phase (which runs until February 14) the first vote will be held. Only the top ten will then go on to the final vote to be the 2017 winner.\nAndaluc\u00eda T\u00edpica S.L. is a very important portal for rural accommodation and tourism in the sector. This original initiative has not gone unnoticed on the internet as in 2016, more than one hundred thousand people cast their vote and many more visited and made consultations on their website.\nAccording to the company, the increase in the demand for accommodation in competing municipalities has multiplied, in some cases by up to 40%. It is seen as an opportunity for many small municipalities to increase their profiles and show their charisma and facilities to a growing market of tourists. The average voter is profiled as being between the age of 35 and 50, professional, with a medium-high income level.\nMoj\u00e1car, for the moment, has more than four hundred votes. It is hoped that the lovers of Moj\u00e1car continue voting on the page of \u201cwww.andaluciatipica.com\u201d and, confirm that it is not only one of the most beautiful towns of Spain, but also of Andalucia.\nPrevious articleMONTE REMAIN IN TITLE RACE\nNext article\u2018HUG A BRITON\u2019\n\u201cMAS QUE PINTURA\u201d ART SHOW IN MOJ\u00c1CAR",

The presentations from the recent meeting in Chile, Strengthening Editors and Scientists Capabilities in Electronic Publishing (Valparaiso, January 14-15, 2004) are now online.\nDuring the conference, the 120 participants from 15 countries drafted the Valparaiso Declaration for Improved Scientific Communication in the Electronic Medium, which was released today. Excerpt: \u201cJournals must improve their production processes by using online technologies in order to reduce their publication times\u2026.Assessments of reading habits and analyses of the market for electronic journals clearly confirm the fact that the Internet is already a place of convergence and the preferred medium for the transmission of scientific knowledge\u2026.Managers of scientific journals are responsible for achieving their maximal dissemination, bringing with it greater visibility and accessibility. They should not only ensure that their contents and format are standardized but also that they are indexed in the greatest possible number of data bases and indexes, and that the complete texts are immediately available in multiple repositories\u2026.The gradual reduction in publishing costs as a result of electronic publication (given the fact that the costs of the production process are more and more being borne by the authors and readers) must inexorably lead to systems of communicating science that are open and managed by the scientific community itself.\u201d (PS: I&apos;ve linked to an email copy of the declaration in our forum archive. If the conference posts an official version online, I&apos;ll blog the URL.) [Open Access News]\nthis sounds like it could be the start of something good, but where did the berlin declaration go? why are there 100 different movements? i&apos;m not sure, but i&apos;d like to work on it a bit\u2026..",

        "raw_content": "130 years ago today - Apr 9, 1888 \u2022 Monday\nBro. Chas. Livingstone called for me this morning. I put on my disguise and rode up with him in daylight.\nThe Council convened at 10:30. ...\nIt was decided to dedicate the Manti Temple on the 17^th May. The programme, as arranged, is as follows: We who are on the \"underground\" leave this city on Sunday evening, May 13^th, and go to Nephi, where we remain on Monday. Leave Nephi Monday evening, after dark, and proceed to Manti. Remain in the Temple on Tuesday & Wednesday, attending to organization of affairs, and on Thursday, dedicate the Temple. Leave Manti after dark on Thursday and proceed to Nephi, where we rest on Friday, and return to the city on Friday night....\nI had thought of going home this evening, but I learned that our friends \"Maude\" and Dellie\" had returned from the East and were desirous to have an interview. It was arranged that we should meet them to-morrow, at 11 o'clock, at the Gardo House. I concluded that I would remain in town.\nWe have received dispatches concerning some of the discourses in the Tabernacle, which are being made use of by those who are unfavorable to us to our disadvantage. Bros. S. B. Young and Rudger Clawson spoke unwisely concerning plural marriage; Bro. John Nicholson also concerning the land movement; and these remarks have been sent East by telegraph, for the purpose of creating public opinion against us. We sent for Bro. Clawson and instructed him to go and see Byron Groo and have him write a dispatch to the Associated Press that would counteract any misstatements that were made and endeavor to allay public opinion.\nI went over to the Gardo House and passed the night.",

        "raw_content": "God, who in generous mercy sent the Holy Spirit upon your Church in the burning fire of your love: grant that your people may be fervent in the fellowship of the gospel that, always abiding in you, they may be found steadfast in faith and active in service; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.\nLord God, defend your Church from all false teaching and give to your people knowledge of your truth, that we may enjoy eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.\nThe whole congregation of the Israelites complained against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness. The Israelites said to them, \u2018If only we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots and ate our fill of bread; for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.\nThen the Lord said to Moses, \u2018I am going to rain bread from heaven for you, and each day the people shall go out and gather enough for that day. In that way I will test them, whether they will follow my instruction or not. On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather on other days.\u2019 So Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites, \u2018In the evening you shall know that it was the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord, because he has heard your complaining against the Lord. For what are we, that you complain against us?\u2019 And Moses said, \u2018When the Lord gives you meat to eat in the evening and your fill of bread in the morning, because the Lord has heard the complaining that you utter against him\u2014what are we? Your complaining is not against us but against the Lord.\u2019\nThen Moses said to Aaron, \u2018Say to the whole congregation of the Israelites, \u201cDraw near to the Lord, for he has heard your complaining.\u201d \u2019 And as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the Israelites, they looked towards the wilderness, and the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. The Lord spoke to Moses and said, \u2018I have heard the complaining of the Israelites; say to them, \u201cAt twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread; then you shall know that I am the Lord your God.\u201d\nIn the evening quails came up and covered the camp; and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. When the layer of dew lifted, there on the surface of the wilderness was a fine flaky substance, as fine as frost on the ground. When the Israelites saw it, they said to one another, \u2018What is it?\u2019 For they did not know what it was. Moses said to them, \u2018It is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.\n1 O give thanks to the Lord and call upon his name; \u2022\n2 Sing to him, sing praises, \u2022\nand tell of all his marvellous works.\n3 Rejoice in the praise of his holy name; \u2022\nlet the hearts of them rejoice who seek the Lord.\n4 Seek the Lord and his strength; \u2022\n5 Remember the marvels he has done, \u2022\nhis wonders and the judgements of his mouth,\n6 O seed of Abraham his servant, \u2022\nO children of Jacob his chosen.\n37 Then he brought them out with silver and gold; \u2022\nthere was not one among their tribes that stumbled.\n38 Egypt was glad at their departing, \u2022\nfor a dread of them had fallen upon them.\n39 He spread out a cloud for a covering \u2022\nand a fire to light up the night.\n40 They asked and he brought them quails; \u2022\nhe satisfied them with the bread of heaven.\n41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out \u2022\nand ran in the dry places like a river.\n42 For he remembered his holy word \u2022\n43 So he brought forth his people with joy, \u2022\nhis chosen ones with singing.\n44 He gave them the lands of the nations \u2022\nand they took possession of the fruit of their toil,\n45 That they might keep his statutes \u2022\nand faithfully observe his laws.\nFor to me, living is Christ and dying is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labour for me; and I do not know which I prefer. I am hard pressed between the two: my desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better; but to remain in the flesh is more necessary for you. Since I am convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with all of you for your progress and joy in faith, so that I may share abundantly in your boasting in Christ Jesus when I come to you again.\nOnly, live your life in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that, whether I come and see you or am absent and hear about you, I will know that you are standing firm in one spirit, striving side by side with one mind for the faith of the gospel, and are in no way intimidated by your opponents. For them this is evidence of their destruction, but of your salvation. And this is God\u2019s doing. For he has graciously granted you the privilege not only of believing in Christ, but of suffering for him as well\u2014 since you are having the same struggle that you saw I had and now hear that I still have.\n\u2018For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire labourers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the labourers for the usual daily wage, he sent them into his vineyard. When he went out about nine o\u2019clock, he saw others standing idle in the market-place; and he said to them, \u201cYou also go into the vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.\u201d So they went. When he went out again about noon and about three o\u2019clock, he did the same. And about five o\u2019clock he went out and found others standing around; and he said to them, \u201cWhy are you standing here idle all day?\u201d They said to him, \u201cBecause no one has hired us.\u201d He said to them, \u201cYou also go into the vineyard.\u201d When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, \u201cCall the labourers and give them their pay, beginning with the last and then going to the first.\u201d When those hired about five o\u2019clock came, each of them received the usual daily wage. Now when the first came, they thought they would receive more; but each of them also received the usual daily wage. And when they received it, they grumbled against the landowner, saying, \u201cThese last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.\u201d But he replied to one of them, \u201cFriend, I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? Take what belongs to you and go; I choose to give to this last the same as I give to you. Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?\u201d So the last will be first, and the first will be last.\u2019\nSermon on Fifteenth Sunday of Trinity\nThe parable we read this morning is an extraordinary story, isn\u2019t it? Here Jesus is telling us about the gift of the Kingdom of Heaven. However, he tells it in the guise of a business model. Imagine if our businesses, or even our government, were run along such lines! What a very different life everyone would have.\nThe disasters in India, Burma, the Carribean and the southern United States make me pause and wonder at my own selfishness, which is not unlike the workers who signed up first on that day. Why should someone who has only worked an hour be entitled to the same reward as I am? This is not an uncommon complaint everywhere. Imagine your children, or even yourself as a child \u2013 didn\u2019t you whine a little bit when your sibling got the same thing for just being around which you were given for the chores you finished?\nEven when we grow up, we have the same expectations. The apprentice is being paid an awful lot of money compared to the master craftsman. But then there is the disparity also \u2013 women being paid a quarter of what a man is for the same job, children being forced to work, the list of injustice in the workplace is enormous.\nJesus tells us of a man who has looked the worker in the eye and said \u201cYou also go into the vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.\u201d Isn\u2019t this the way we should deal with everyone? Isn\u2019t it just that people are paid \u201cwhatever is right\u201d? This is a completely different way of treating people than our present economy works.\nHowever, the problem arises when a third person enters the situation. Then there is a judgement being made on the \u201ccontract\u201d between the labourer and the landowner (or whoever it is in the relationship). This judgement is the field of ethics according to the philosopher who tells us, Here we start from the appearance of the other, \u201cfrom the responsibility for the other that justice appears, which calls for judgement and comparison, a comparison of what is in principle incomparable,\u201d the individual human being.\nThis is not so very different from the story Jesus tells us, is it? Comparison is made, isn\u2019t it? \u201cI am worth more than that lazy wretch who appeared only at the last hour. I am worth more because of all my labour during the day.\u201d Don\u2019t we say this as well today? \u201cI am the Managing Director so I should receive all the profits.\u201d Or \u201cI am a graduate so I should be paid a lot of money right from the beginning.\u201d This sense of self-worth permeates the whole of society, and not just in this country. The world thinks thus, or so \u201cthey\u201d say. But do we think this in the depths of our hearts when we look into the eyes of the person in front of us?\nIn our most honest moments, I am sure we value that person staring us in the eye just as we value ourselves. This is the basis of the golden rule \u2013 you know that standard of behaviour which no one talks about nowadays, \u201cTreat others as you would like to be treated.\u201d The golden rule is the standard for judgement when that third person enters the room.\nWhy does the philosopher say that the third person is the basis for ethics? Surely, we need not have a code outside of ourselves. We are moral in and of ourselves, aren\u2019t we? Or have we degenerated into the mass of humanity which does not think for itself but only obeys the herd instinct?\nThese are very deep questions \u2013 they are crucial questions for life \u2013 all of which arise because this parable. Why does the landowner want to be generous when all the crowd expects is greed and miserliness as the standard of behaviour? That is precisely the point of the parable \u2013 the Kingdom of Heaven is unlike anything we normally come across.\nHowever, the parable also points to something else \u2013 that such behaviour is possible, such an experience, even if it is so very different from everything we normally undergo, is still possible. It is possible that our employer will pay us all what we need to live. Imagine that \u2013 generosity in the workplace, the social gospel put into practice!\nWho would complain then? When we treat each other with that christian charity \u2013 love without concupiscence, as the philosopher puts it \u2013 when we treat each other righteously, then the beginning of the Kingdom will be very close, as the evangelist tells us.\nJesus\u2019 message to each and every one of us, is life without complaint. Who can live this life? The philosopher I have been reading suggests that the prophets live this life. What happened to the true prophets, they are beaten and degraded because they stand for justice which is based on a divine and loving mercy. The prophet confronts the king who accepts his opposition in the name of God. The true prophets never flatter, rather they seek only justice, and the king knows this is the prophet\u2019s role. The prophet brings the third into the conversation with the king. The prophet introduces God into a world devoid of conscience.\nThe Kingdom of God is a very different place to the everyday world of twenty-first century schizoid man. Rather than accepting wretched treatment of anyone, whether it is in the workplace or the playground or at the pub, everyone judges every other person as valuable as him- or her- self. The judgement of the ethical is based on the third person, because the first two can look into each others\u2019 eyes and see truth, beauty and love. When the third person comes along, that gaze is interrupted. The third person requires the moral attitude, a true judgement of the good.\nThe prophet does the same with the king. The prophet speaks with the king in the name of God. No one can overturn anything the prophet says. Jesus is our prophet. Jesus should speak to the king of our time. When that happens, when people stop complaining that the church is involved in politics, then the moral, the ethical, will become the new normal, when the Kingdom of God approaches each and every one of us.",

        "title": "Top 10 Characters from Band of Brothers & The Pacific | Top Ten TV",
        "raw_content": "The HBO \u201cWW2\u201d series; Band of Brothers (BOB) and The Pacific (TP) boasted many people from the hit movie Saving Private Ryan that starred Tom Hanks. BOB was a 10-part HBO television spectacle that focuses on Easy Company, a group of American soldiers in World War II, tracking their experiences from the beginning of boot camp to the end of the war. Anchored by actors Damian Lewis (Homeland) and Ron Livingston, the series gives detailed attention to their experiences as a group, as well as the way that each of them develops individually. The series was based on historian Stephen E. Ambrose\u2019s book of real-life accounts. The executive producers were Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks. Hanks also directed one episode, featuring his son, Colin Hanks. The series was realistic (not surprising given that it was based on real-life accounts of the European War) and engaging. It also spawned some great characters.\nThe spiritual follow-up was The Pacific (TP) which followed from the producers of Band of Brothers. TP tracks the real-life journeys of three U.S. Marines\u2013Robert Leckie, Eugene Sledge and John Basilone from the first clash with the Japanese in the gloomy jungles of Guadalcanal, through the impenetrable rain forests of Cape Gloucester, across the blasted coral strongholds of Peleliu, up the black sand terraces of Iwo Jima, and finally through the killing fields of Okinawa, to the difficult attempts to return to normality in civvies after V-J Day.\n10. Joe Toye (BOB)\nA great character, Joe distinguished himself in Winters\u2019 assault on the gun positions at Brecourt. After killing most of the German gun crew, Toye then approached a German POW, who was babbling in panic. Toye yelled at him to shut up, before slugging him in the face with his brass knuckleduster. Toye was awarded the Silver Star for his actions.\nToye then fought in Operation Market Garden in Holland and was wounded by an Artillery bombardment, and sent back to England. Toye returns to the Company, and participated in the Battle of the Bulge. During the battle, Toye had taken off his boots to massage his feet, when an Artillery bombardment destroyed his boots, causing his feet to freeze, and get a severe case of trenchfoot. Never having much luck, he was wounded again by bomb Shrapnel, and was sent to the main town of Bastogne to be treated. However, he busted out, and rejoined the Company. In the depth of Winter still trying to turn back the Germans in the Bulge he was out in the open during another Artillery strike, and was knocked down by shell shrapnel which went into his back, and blew off one of his legs. That was the war over for Toye as he went off to hospital for the fourth and last time.\n9. 1st Lieutenant Norman S. Dike Jr. (BOB)\nKnown as \u201cFoxhole Norman\u201d. Dike was transferred from Division HQ to Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, in the first week of November 1944 while the company was in Bastogne becoming commanding officer.\nHe spends his time being extremely distant from the company, constantly going on walks and just generally eluding himself from the company. It was apparent from the start that this guy wasn\u2019t worthy to lead such a well established company but it wasn\u2019t until the last moment where it was truly shown.\n8. PFC Robert Leckie (TP)\nBob Leckie is one of the three main characters in TP. He tries to maintain a Christian attitude during the trials and tribulations of the war against Japan. Here\u2019s some great dialogue between Leckie and one of the other main characters, Eugene \u201cSledgehammer\u201d Sledge:\nPFC Robert Leckie: [in Leckie's 'library,' he sees Sledge picking up a Bible and chuckles] Now that explains it. You\u2019re a believer.\nEugene B. Sledge: Yes.\nPFC Robert Leckie: OK, question: God created everything, right? The heavens, seven seas, Marine Corps\u2026\n[gestures to the sleeping Runner]\nPFC Robert Leckie: Sleeping Beauty there\u2026\nEugene B. Sledge: [chuckles] Even him.\nPFC Robert Leckie: Land crabs, rats, mosquitoes\u2026\nEugene B. Sledge: Mosquito\u2019s a little tough to understand, I guess.\nPFC Robert Leckie: God created Japs too, right?\n[Eugene's smile fades]\nPFC Robert Leckie: Yellow slants who\u2019ve tried to kill me on many occasions. Japs come from the garden of Eden too?\nEugene B. Sledge: Well, what we do is up to us. He gives us a choice.\nPFC Robert Leckie: Free will, right. \u2018Cept he\u2019s God, of course, so he knows what we\u2019re gonna do before we do it.\nEugene B. Sledge: Predestination.\nPFC Robert Leckie: So the whole game is fixed by the will of Gramps on his throne while we\u2019re down here for what? His entertainment? That makes us chumps, or God\u2019s a sadist and either way, I got no use for him.\nEugene B. Sledge: So what do you believe in?\nPFC Robert Leckie: I believe in ammunition.\n[Eugene chuckles]\nPFC Robert Leckie: Tell you what, though \u2013 since I\u2019m not on speaking terms anymore, next time you\u2019re havin\u2019 a chat with the old geezer, can you ask him to sink a few Jap transports and have \u2018em all fall on their bayonets so I can get the fuck out of here and go home? Sure would appreciate it.\n7. Technical Sergeant Donald Malarkey (BOB)\nAfter meeting up at Ste. Marie-du-Monte, Malarkey got in a conversation with a German POW Sergeant, who had apparently been from Portland, Oregon, and had joined the Germans after receiving the order for all Germans to return to the fatherland. This gave Malarkey a newer perspective on the war, that the people you could be shooting at could be 100 miles from you. He always had a thing for Lugers, the German side arm.\nWhen he participated in the Brecourt Manor Assault he made a break for what he thought was a Luger in a dead body out in the open. After discovering it was simply a sight for the 105mm guns, he ran back, but survived, because the Germans thought he was a medic. He was later awarded the Bronze Star for his actions.\n6. Staff Sergeant Bull Randelman (BOB)\nOne of the universally popular soldiers in BOB, the cigar chewing nice-guy Denver \u201cBull\u201d Randleman caused a big loss in morale when he went MIA presumed KIA during the failed Operation Market Garden in September 1944. Randleman was separated from his unit, only just managed to escape being run over by a tank. Injured, he hid in a culvert. Unable to return to his lines, he spent most of the following night hiding in a nearby barn with Germans all around. He was looked after by the locals until he could rejoin his unit, where he was welcomed back as a hero.\n5. Gunnery Sgt John Basilone (TP)\nWhat can you say about the man in reality and the man as portrayed in TP? Hero. Period. He won the congressional medal of honour, returns to the US to sell war bonds, gets fed up, starts training new recruits, gets married and returns to active duty only to die while once again playing the hero. He perfected the art of using the 30 calibre machine gun single-handed. He was revered and respected by his men, he was loved by his wife and his wife\u2019s family.\nAlthough he hates his enemy, he respects them, and here gives a short but powerful speech to some of his new recruits about the Jap soldier: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Qt3smwSBx8\n4. Captain Herbert Sobell (BOB)\nEasily one of the most memorable characters from the entire franchise. Captain Sobell was given command of Easy Company (Part of the Regiment\u2019s 2nd Battalion) who we see mostly in the first few episodes of Band of Brothers educating and training his company.\nSobell was a person who\u2019s dictionary doesn\u2019t include the word \u201cleniency\u201d, he was used his \u2018No Bullshit\u2019 attitude to keep his company in line, creating a huge sense of fear. Without a doubt, his attitude worked extremely well in getting his soldiers physically ready for combat however when it came to tactical thinking and strategic decisions, Sobell made things anything but easy.\nWhile Sobell may have seemed to only put on a harsh front in order to keep the men in line, this was far from the truth and he was a complete bastard at heart.\nSobel later developed a grudge against Winters. He issued Winters a court martial for not inspecting the latrine, mostly because he had changed the time from 1000 hours, to 0945, though Winters wasn\u2019t informed. Later, a mutiny among the Companys\u2019 NCO\u2019s was forming, giving Colonel Sink, the Regimental commander, to wonder about Sobel\u2019s popularity in the company. In a fireplace room, he hinted at this, but Sobel said they were the finest men he had. Sink, however, reassigns Sobel to Chilton Foliat jump school, much to Sobel\u2019s horror.\n3. Merriel Shelton AKA Snafu (TP)\nEasily one of the most memorable characters from The Pacific, Merriel Shelton (More commonly known as Snafu) is a character who we truly see develop over the series of The Pacific. Snafu is first seen supervising the new recruits in the early episodes which follow the story of Eugene Sledge, he is getting them to clean oil drums and generally give them all a hard time.\nBeing extremely cold to all new recruits and soldiers, Snafu eventually opens up and we find out the true reason why. No one wants to see their friends die in combat so Snafu\u2019s answer this was not to befriend anyone! At least not until they have proved themselves as worthy soldiers. This becomes apparent in a rare case in the series where he does befriend a new recruit only to lose him shortly after.\nSnafu is also an extremely creepy character, Rami Malek who portrays the character does a fantastic job of being generally odd. In the Battle of Peleliu, he is later seen prying a dead Japanese soldier\u2019s jaw right off the skull to get some gold teeth right in front of Eugene Sledge. Later Sledge almost gets reduced to Snafu\u2019s level, about to try and pull the golden teeth out of another Japanese soldiers mouth. Snafu stops him, because he doesn\u2019t want to let Sledge lose his humanity. He tries to get Sledge to back away from the corpse by telling him that the Japs have diseases, so Sledge cuts off a unit insignia instead. It is interesting to see the influence Snafu had over Sledge over the course of the series.\nDespite all of his oddities, Snafu is a fantastic solider who got the job done.\n2. Lieutenant Winters (BOB)\nDick Winters appears in all the episodes of BOB and is by all counts, a bit of a hero. He is able as a leader, looks after the welfare of his men, and ultimately stands up against the brutish loser Captain Sobell. He does what is required of him as a soldier but clearly is humane and just wants to get the job and for the war to be over and done. There\u2019s a scene that haunts him where he comes across a young German soldier who smiles at him, but he shoots him.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQeO4jY9oAA\n1. Captain Ronald Speirs (BOB)\nSpeirs is the closest thing in BOB to Clint Eastwood\u2019s Kelly from the movie Kelly\u2019s Heroes. He takes out a German 88 single-handed after all\u2026 In the BOB mini series, on D-Day morning, he is shown giving out cigarettes to Nazi POWs, and later is reputed to have \u201chosed them down\u201d with his Thompson. He was also said to have shot a drunk allied Sergeant. He neither denies these, nor confirms them, and he merely says \u201cthe guy that told you this says he was there, but when asking him what it was like, will say he heard it from the other guy.\u201d\nAfter relieving Dike during the taking of Foy, Speirs went full Rambo and was fighting as if he was in a Call of Duty game. The company was absolutely stunned by his sheer confidence and will.\nSpeirs again comes into his own when a drunk soldier shoots a fellow soldier in the head after the war had ended. The passion Spiers showed as his beat the shit out of the ignorant private showcases how much the Army and his troops meant to him.\nTags: Band of Brothers, Band of Brothers Characters, The Pacific, The Pacific Characters\n\u2190 Top Ten Best Cartoon Network Shows of All Time\nTop Ten Best Monsters from Dr Who \u2192",

This result was up by 1.9 per cent compared to the same period in December 2013. Over the same period, new listings were down by 1.8 per cent year over year.\n\u201cGreater Toronto Area households remain upbeat about buying a home, as evidenced by the increase in sales compared to last year. However, many would-be home buyers continue to have problems getting a deal done due to the lack of listings for some home types. The lack of listings has definitely been a drag on sales this year,\u201d said Mr. Etherington.\nThe average selling price for December mid-month transactions was $565,873, which represented a year-over-year increase of 8.6 per cent. Price growth was driven by the detached market segment in the City of Toronto.\n\u201cSellers\u2019 market conditions remain in place for low-rise home types, including detached and semi-detached houses and townhouses. The condominium apartment segment of the market has been more balanced due to strong project completions, but there has been enough buyer interest to prompt condo price growth above the rate of inflation,\u201d said Jason Mercer, TREB\u2019s Director of Market Analysis.\nSummary of TorontoMLS Sales and Average Price December 1-14, 2014\nTorontoMLS Sales & Average Price By Home Type December 1-14, 2014",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Start Inspiration Exciting cultural life R\u00f6dberget Fort \u2013 A top visit\nCome on an exciting journey back in time and experience military history at one of Boden\u2019s most monumental sights \u2013 the R\u00f6dberget Fort! The fort is part of Boden Fortress, one of the most elaborate fortifications in Swedish history. During the two World Wars and the Cold War, the fortress was known as the \u201cLock of the North\u201d and was held top secret. Today, it is completely open to everyone and preserved just as it once was.\nImagine if this road, this wall, this view could speak.\nThe journey up to the R\u00f6dberget Fort is like winding back on the axis of time. Up, up towards the summit of the mountain. Heading back into history. It is almost impossible not to feel the beating wings of time and marvel at what awaits around every turn. Once you have reached the summit, it is as though a filter is removed, light washes over you and there is a breathtaking view, with Boden at your feet.\nImagine if this road, this wall, this view could speak. The stomping of military boots and the amplified barks of the guard dogs are resonant in the remains as is the tangible feeling of coldness that crept under the wolf pelts of the guards during the long bitterly cold winter nights. Maybe it was one of those nights that gave rise to the Swedish saying about Boden \u201c\u2026there is a place on earth, where the sun never shines\u2026\u201d. A saying that we don\u2019t much care for today but looking back we can at least understand where it came from, with so many soldiers toiling so hard for so long. Not least when the forts were built and ton upon ton of building materials were to be transported across snow and ice.\nThe R\u00f6dberget Fort is part of Boden\u2019s and Sweden\u2019s military history, which made Boden into the city it is and to the important military hub it was throughout the 20th century.\nSecrecy and restrictions that we may find excessive today were part of the norm not many years ago.\nA hundred-year era\nConstruction of Boden Fortress began in 1901 and it consists of five forts, blasted into the mountains surrounding Boden. With its strategic location this so-called \u2018girdle fortress\u2019, unique to Sweden, was supposed to function as a lock in the north, defending rivers, lands, natural resources and railroad infrastructure from invasion, mainly from the east.\nSecrecy and restrictions that we may find excessive today were part of the norm not many years ago. In 1996, the last signs prohibiting entry to foreigners were removed, in many Boden locations photography was still completely prohibited and during the cold war there were even signs reading \u201cENTRY PROHIBITED TO ALIENS\u201d.\nHere, in Boden, was Northern Europe\u2019s last bastion against Russia. There are conspiracy theories saying that the Swedish gold reserve was kept here under heavy guard. There are also innumerable stories about what has happened in our man-made caverns, about all the recruits who did their military service here and about the ferocious guard dogs watching the moat, named after liquor brands.\nThe last cannon was symbolically fired from the Boden Fortress in 1997. On Swedish National Day in 2000, the R\u00f6dberget Fort was officially opened to visitors and over the years, many colourful life stories have been collected here. The R\u00f6dberget Fort is operated by the company, F\u00e4stningsguiden (the Fortress Guide) whose proprietor Sally Sundbom used to work for the Armed Forces in Boden. Together with a staff of about 20 people during high season, when the fortress is visited by thousands of people, she now helps to preserve the cultural, military history of Boden.\n\u201cWhen we took over the R\u00f6dberget Fort, everything was intact. Over the years, we have refitted the place with old original interiors that have been donated to us, restoring the fort to its original condition\u201d, explains Sally.\nToday, she organises events at the R\u00f6dberget Fort all year round with dinners, conferences and guided tours. The long tables are set with white cloths, candelabra \u2013 and bullet casings, for those who want a military flair to their event.\n\u201cWe have had large events where we have set tables out in the dry moat\u201d, says Sally Sundbom.\nEnter the fort\nThroughout summer, the fort is open for daily guided tours and in winter it can be booked. Tours begin in the canteen, where there is now a small caf\u00e9. During a tour with Sally or one of her professional guide colleagues you will get to learn everything, from how the fort was built to how life was in the fort whilst it was still in use, how the cannons were fired, how the men worked, slept and lived together behind closed gates. An unexpected uniformed mannequin waiting behind a door might make you jump, taking you back to the glory days of the fort for a fraction of a second. Just entering the mountain is an experience in itself.\nWith a head full of impressions and stories you will then leave the mountain, taking with you thoughts and reflections. Back to an open Boden, today invaded from the west, in a more pleasant way, by many Norwegian summer guests, in a city that is now home to people from all over the world and a tourism industry built around one of Sweden\u2019s most popular destinations, Boden.\nMore military history\nBodens Fortress Secret Places \u2013 Guided bus tour\nHavremagasinet \u2013 Regional Art Gallery\nBoden Fortress Facts\n- Construction began in 1901\n- Workforce: approx. 1,200 men\n- The fortress spans 25 km and consists of 1,200 separate exhibits.\n- During World War II the fortress had a garrison of approx. 15,000 men.\n- Five large artillery forts blasted into the mountains, with a garrison of approximately 500 men per fort.\n- Every fort has eight mounted cannons as well as mobile artillery inside the fort.\n- The fortress housed the northern command centres for the Army and the Air Force.\n- In the 1990\u2019s, the Boden Garrison was Sweden\u2019s largest with more than 2,000 employees, 3,500 recruits every year, 19,000 hectares of firing ranges, nearly 1,000 buildings and 1,800 vehicles.",

        "raw_content": "Theory of \"Global Warming\"--IV\nBy putting my views against the GW phobia, I stress upon the fact that there is nothing like GW vis-a-vis meteorology and climate. My personal feel is,\"Nothing to worry about the \"disaster\" effects due to an unusual warming\".\nBut , we do have to worry about protecting our earth from destruction/deforestation. It does not mean we abuse our planet, we cannot cut down trees, and extinct off all the other speciies from the face of the earth. Living in harmony with all species will enrich the atmosphere much more, than lighting a CFL bulb. Each and every living type on this earth contributes to the well being of the planet, in their own way. And getting to know how all the living species, whether insect or animals, actually help the earth, and in turn us humans,survive. This will require an entire life time.\nKeeping our seas clean will prove more beneficial than worrying about rising sea (dirty) waters. Covering the earth with plastics will be more harmfull than worrying about an adverse \"crop effect\" on this planet.\nBut producing plastic and CFL bulbs are commercial propositions !\nBecause, surely the temperatures will rise in urban centres due to concretisation and congestion. We will notice temperatures are lower by 2/4c just a few kilometres outside our cities. Why, even in open spaces within the city, we will record temperatures lower than in a crowded area.\nHence, for the purpose of recording Global temperatures, still a vast majorities of the readings are from the major, and medium cities. Of-course there are rural readings as well, but vast rural patches, like farmlands and open regions go unrecorded, and they too are part of the earth.\nHence, modifying a bit, we could say we are in for \"Urban Warming\", to some extent, but definitely not \"Rural Warming\". And \"Urban Warming\" cannot create climate change !\nOk, lets observe the fact that is already upon us, rather than worry about the \"islands\" sinking in 2030 !\nWater vapor is responsible for 95 percent of the greenhouse effect. CO2 contributes just 3.6 percent, with human activity responsible for only 3.2 percent of that. That is why some studies claim CO2 levels are largely irrelevant to global warming. Without the greenhouse effect to keep our world warm, the planet would have an average temperature of minus 18 degrees Celsius. Because we do have it, the temperature is a comfortable plus 15 degrees Celsius.\nNASA Marshall Space Flight Center data shows 2008 ice nearly identical to 2002, 2005 and 2006.\nOne won't read it in the media. It doesn't suit the editors of most climate alarmist publications. But below is the picture that reveals the allegedly 'disappearing Arctic ice' defied countless theories growing last year by 30%. And the visual satellite proof had been put up in my blog article on GW Part II.\nOne of their biggest scaremongering predictions was that 'by the end of the century Bangladesh would be 'under the waves' .\nNew data shows that Bangladesh's landmass is increasing, contradicting forecasts that the nation will be under the waves by the end of the century, experts say.\nScientists from the Dhaka-based Center for Environment and Geographic Information Services (CEGIS) have studied 32 years of satellite images and say Bangladesh's landmass has increased by 20 square kilometres (eight square miles) annually.\nI reproduce--\"Maminul Haque Sarker, head of the department at the government-owned centre that looks at boundary changes, told AFP sediment which travelled down the big Himalayan rivers -- the Ganges and the Brahmaputra -- had caused the landmass to increase.\nThe rivers, which meet in the centre of Bangladesh, carry more than a billion tonnes of sediment every year and most of it comes to rest on the southern coastline of the country in the Bay of Bengal where new territory is forming, he said in an interview on Tuesday.\nThe United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has predicted that impoverished Bangladesh, criss-crossed by a network of more than 200 rivers, will lose 17 percent of its land by 2050 because of rising sea levels due to global warming\".\nDirector of the US-based NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, professor James Hansen, paints an even grimmer picture, predicting the entire country could be under water by the end of the century.\nNow the flip side:\nSarker said that while rising sea levels and river erosion were both claiming land in Bangladesh, many climate experts had failed to take into account new land being formed from the river sediment.\n\"Satellite images dating back to 1973 and old maps earlier than that show some 1,000 square kilometres of land have risen from the sea,\" Sarker said.\n\"A rise in sea level will offset this and slow the gains made by new territories, but there will still be an increase in land. We think that in the next 50 years we may get another 1,000 square kilometres of land.\"\nWe can go on and on with thi discussion. What with a record cold snap on both sides of the Atlantic !\nMore in the next part.",

The ability to rapidly and effectively survey the literature can support numerous applications, including multiple stages in the design and the interpretation of large-scale experiments.\nA variety of methods are being applied to the biomedical literature in an attempt to meet these goals, mostly through careful mining of text for gene/protein names and interactions, using natural language processing methods. However, the idea\nof general \u201cbiomedical text mining\u201d remains elusive.\nRather than view biomedical text mining as one monolithic (and not very well\ndefined) task, we attend to specific biological goals that may benefit from the use of text. The talk will focus on several concrete biological applications/problems involving text, and discuss some non-traditional, coarse-grain methods, that we use to effectively address them.\nAutomated recognition of brain region mentions in biomedical literature",

        "raw_content": "Norwegian Star welcomed back\nThe Mayor of the City of Port Phillip, Cr Bernadene Voss, led the local community in welcoming Norwegian Star passengers after the ship was towed back to Station Pier in Port Melbourne.\nNorwegian Star left Station Pier on Thursday 9 February 2017, en route for New Zealand, but experienced problems with its propulsion system in the early hours of Friday 10 February. At the time, it was around 70 nautical miles south east of the entrance to Port Phillip Bay. The ship had to be towed back to Melbourne for repair and arrived around midnight on Saturday 11 February.\nThe next morning, Cr Voss and volunteers from both the City of Port Phillip and the City of Melbourne greeted disembarking passengers, giving them a warm welcome and an invitation to enjoy some more time in Melbourne while waiting for their ship to get underway again. As part of the welcome, every passenger was offered a local delicacy - a free lamington, supplied by Melbourne Bakehouse from Port Melbourne.\nPassengers were mostly upbeat about the experience when interviewed by local media. Some were waiting to see how long the repairs would take before making a decision on whether to continue the cruise, others were off to do some more sightseeing in Melbourne.\nWhen Norwegian Star lost propulsion the Master notified the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) Rescue Coordination Centre in Canberra and they assumed the lead role of coordinating authority.\nA number of other organisations and skilled personnel were involved in the towing operation, ensuring it ran smoothly and successfully. They included:\nNorwegian Star\u2019s Master and crew\nVictorian Ports\u2019 Harbour Master and Vessel Traffic Service operators\nSvitzer.\nTwo tugs towed the ship to the entrance of Port Phillip Bay where two sea pilots boarded to work with the Master for the passage through the Heads and up the bay. A third tug arrived for this part of the journey and they set the ship alongside at Station Pier.\nNorwegian Star at Outer East berth Station Pier, and Golden Princess at Outer West berth.",

He went on to discuss the position with regard to implied terms\nWhilst it was not necessary that the actual price was expressly recorded in writing for there to be a construction contract in writing, if the price was orally agreed but was nowhere in or evidenced in writing an agreed term was not in writing and the contract was not a construction contract in writing for the purposes of the Act. It was always open to parties both in ordinary contractual terms and for the purposes of a construction contract in writing under the Act to have an agreement in which the contract price was not expressly stated or agreed and to agree a verbal or mathematical formula by which the price could be determined. It was necessary to distinguish between the construction or interpretation exercise which established what the agreed price was and a written confirmation that something had been orally agreed. It was incorrect that where no prices had been agreed orally or otherwise in what was otherwise a construction contract in writing and a court or arbitrator would otherwise imply a term requiring payment of a reasonable price or reasonable remuneration, there could be no construction contract in writing. The whole point about implied terms was that they were almost invariably implied as a matter of law in the absence of any material express agreement and were terms which necessarily were not and did not have to be expressed as they arose by operation of law. A very large number of construction (and other) contracts had implied terms and it would be an extraordinary state of affairs if contracts which would otherwise be construction contracts in writing were taken outside the operation of the Act because there were one or more implied terms. It followed that a construction contract in writing in which there was no agreement about the price, whether oral, in writing or otherwise, would still be a construction contract within the Act even if the price or the rates fell to be determined by reference to an implied term as to reasonable rates or prices.",

        "raw_content": "by Steve Wettlaufer - the system is down - October 17, 2004 November 27, 2013\nRemember the other night when I was all happy because I finally fixed the posting system so that it wouldn\u2019t mangle all of my html anymore and even gave you that link to prove it? Well, that must have been a fluke because everything I thought I fixed is broken again and I honestly have no idea why. All of the settings that I changed and saved are still there but it\u2019s doing what it did before I changed anything.\nIf you\u2019re wondering why I don\u2019t update as much as I used to, this is a big part of the reason why. I write all of my posts offline because it\u2019s easier for me to do it that way. I write perfectly good html in Notepad and then paste it into the post box and hit publish. What\u2019s supposed to happen is the system will post what I wrote the way I wrote it. It\u2019s a great system when it actually works. The problem is that every time I try to link to something, no matter what I do, the system always breaks my tags and a few times, especially tonight, it even moves words I wrote within those tags to different places or worse yet, manages to put words that were in plain text into the tags and leaves everything else out, completely screwing up not only the tag, but the link itself.\nI know that there are other people with their own blogs who read this site and I\u2019d love to know if any of you are having the same trouble and how you managed to fix it or at least work around it if you did. Asking support got me nowhere. they told me what to do and it worked for exactly 1 post so I need some other opinions here.\nI\u2019ve honestly just about had it. I don\u2019t want to stop updating and give up on the site, I have too much fun with it and judging by some of the stuff that\u2019s gone on on the comment boards [most of which has been deleted by our board provider because we\u2019re on the free system] and some of the emails and personal comments I\u2019ve gotten from people, I know that for the most part you guys have fun here too. But because of all of the technical problems and extra work that it takes to write everything now, it\u2019s not really all that easy to get motivated to write anything good. I\u2019ve got topics and I\u2019m always finding amusing things to post when I don\u2019t, but when things don\u2019t work like they should and there\u2019s seemingly nothing I can do about it, sometimes I just can\u2019t be bothered to put them up.\nSorry for the rant, but it bothers me to no end when people feel that they need to fix something that wasn\u2019t broken in the first place. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019m all about innovation and improvement, but I find more often than not that what\u2019s being fixed ends up broken when it\u2019s all said and done. For example, how many times have you seen a perfectly good, well organized and easy to navigate website get redesigned into a completely unusable piece of shit while the person responsible for it crows about it like he\u2019s just done the greatest thing ever and should win some kind of award for it? Well to me that\u2019s exactly what happened when the people at blogger decided to tweak the post editor over the Summer. In fact the only reason that I can post at all is because I\u2019ve got a really smart friend and because I was smart enough to figure out that I had to write some sort of weird half html half plain text mess just so that line breaks would appear properly.\nI\u2019m sure that the new system is great for some of you, probably most of you but don\u2019t forget that when you\u2019re blind and can\u2019t see all of the snappy new features and your computer access software can\u2019t either because everything is overly visual, all bets are off.\nAnybody who knows me or who has read this site for a while knows that I hate to use the blindness thing unless it\u2019s relevant to the situation because I honestly think that too many blind people wine too much but this time I\u2019ll make an acception and go totally blind guy on you. For an organization that claims that they are working to address access issues, Blogger isn\u2019t off to a very good start. If they really cared as much as they claim they do, they would have put an option in place that would allow people to use the old system while they had actual blind people test out the new one to make sure it actually worked. I\u2019ll bet that would have been appreciated by everybody, not just the blind.\nI\u2019m sure that by this point some of you are probably thinking \u201cJesus Christ, for a guy using a free service you sure complain a lot. You get what you pay for, dick,\u201d and I would probably agree if I didn\u2019t think that you were wrong.\nThink about it this way. I might not be paying for the domain name, the webspace, the server, the maintenance of it or anything else associated with the day to day operations of blogger for that matter but if it weren\u2019t for people like me and the millions of other people who use this service, there wouldn\u2019t be a company to pay for in the first place. The business model they\u2019ve chosen leaves no room for argument on that point either, allow me to demonstrate.\nIt basically works like this. Blogger gives me a free place to write things, and I in turn write them for free. People come to the place where I\u2019m writing them and Blogger gets more hits which translates into more ad money for them which means that they get paid. Sometimes the people who come to read the things I write decide that they want to write things too, so they set up their own place to write things and the cycle repeats itself. Doesn\u2019t sound like a bad little system to me, and it seems that Google thought the same thing since they bought the company. The Google people aren\u2019t stupid, they know a good concept and a good revenue stream when they see one.\nBut back to my point, that being why I can bitch about what I\u2019m getting for free. When you visit most websites all you\u2019re doing is reading things that other people wrote. don\u2019t get me wrong, you\u2019re an important part of the site because without people to read things that people write, there would be no site, thusly it follows that there would be no need to write things especially if you\u2019re looking to get some money out of it. But Blogger is a different story. They might have built the system, but I\u2019m the content provider. So the way I see it, it\u2019s an even trade if you exclude the fact that they\u2019re getting rich not only off of their hard work, but also off of mine while all I\u2019m getting is a free way to make other people money. Ok, so maybe that\u2019s not entirely fair. This free site does allow me to have my voice heard as well as a chance to promote other things that I\u2019m involved in. But still, I\u2019m doing a lot of the leg work here to make sure that this company survives so as a volunteer worker here I think that I have a right to complain about an organization that isn\u2019t treating it\u2019s employees the way that it should.\nThe bottom line is that I\u2019m not going to stop posting on the site, but I\u2019m not going to stop complaining and trying to make things right either. So all of you will just have to put up with some technical problems and a little bit of cursing along with your fun. But come on, what do you want for free?",

        "title": "How Cloud ERP Compares to On-premise ERP (Part 1) - Venture Team Services",
        "raw_content": "If you\u2019re considering an ERP system for your business, chances are you\u2019re being bombarded with choices. As you consider your options, one of the most important decisions you\u2019ll need to make is whether to select a cloud-based ERP solution or one that\u2019s installed locally.\nThe basic difference between on-premise ERP and cloud ERP is clear: On-premise ERP solutions are installed locally on your company\u2019s hardware and servers and then managed by your IT staff while cloud ERP \u2013 also called SaaS, or Software-as-a-Service \u2013 is provided as a service. With this type of deployment, a company\u2019s ERP software and its associated data are managed centrally (in the Internet \u201ccloud\u201d) by the ERP vendor and are accessed by customers using a web browser.\nWhat may not be so clear is that the type of ERP deployment model you choose can have a significant impact across your business. Here are some key factors that you need to consider when weighing whether to use on-premise or cloud-based ERP software.\nOn-premise ERP systems usually require large upfront and ongoing investments to purchase and manage the software and the related hardware, servers, and facilities necessary to run it. If your company doesn\u2019t have a large or experienced IT staff, you may also have to also invest more time and money in additional personnel and train them. Even more importantly, on-premise systems require that your IT team spend a significant amount of their time and budgets ensuring your system is up-and-running when you need it, including maintenance of hardware, server rooms, and more. When its time for your ERP system to be upgraded, IT must then redeploy the system across the various users\u2019 computers and re-implement various customisations and integrations that your business installed on your previous software.\nFor cloud-based ERP, initial costs are typically much lower because you simply implement the software to your requirements and then access it through your computer\u2019s internet connection. The cloud ERP provider hosts and maintains all of the IT infrastructure for you, ensures the system is always running, that the data is secure, and that product enhancements are rolled out painlessly to your solution without breaking your previously implemented customisations.\nUltimately, this all allows your IT resources to focus on innovating and helping grow the business more effectively, rather than spending a disproportionate amount of their time on maintaining and managing your on-premise systems. Cloud ERP also offers a predictable, pay-as-you-go subscription model that can make cash flow management and planning much easier.\nOver time, those IT savings add up. When comparing the total cost of ownership of on-premise ERP solutions relative to cloud systems, one industry analyst study found that cloud-based ERP can cost 50 percent less than on-site ERP for a 100-employee company over a four-year period.\nOn-site ERP software can be customised, but those customisations are tied to your current software deployment and are not easy to re-implement with future versions. As your ERP provider releases new product updates and enhancements, your previously implemented customisations will be wiped out when you upgrade and your IT team will have to start customising from scratch again. That\u2019s the main reason many companies simply avoid upgrading their on-site ERP software and just settle for running their business on out-of-date technology. In fact, two-thirds of mid-size businesses are running outdated versions of their ERP software.\nIn contrast, cloud ERP solutions are continually upgraded by the provider so you can be sure you\u2019re always using the latest, most advanced version of your ERP software. Because of the cloud platform today\u2019s leading cloud applications are built upon, your previously implemented customisations and integrations automatically carry forward when the solution is updated without additional investment.",

        "raw_content": "Categories Video Games0 Comments\nThe mind-boggling Tennis news lately got us thinking about the weird stories behind video games. Being an integral part of the entertainment industry and the present pop culture, there are many tales attached to video games. Today we look into some of the fantastic facts related to video games that hard to believe.\nThere was a time that Nintendo shipped Super Nintendo consoles only during the night. The reason for it was the fear of the Japanese mafia and being robbed by them.\nFIFA 2001 and Gran Turismo 2 both had a smell attached to them. The UK versions of the game came with the fragrance of soccer and racing. When the disc of each game was scratched or rubbed, the person would get the odor of a pitch or the pit-stop. The idea was to deliver an authentic experience.\nThe first game of Civilization had a peculiarity. The aggression level of Gandhi was the lowest in the game. It was set at 1 because he didn\u2019t want to create wars. When the player chose democracy as a setting, the aggression rating would drop further by two points. This would have set the score to -1. But instead, the number changed to 255 i.e. the highest aggression score. In replacement of a peaceful Gandhi, you got one who was ready to launch the nukes.\nVideo games are not just for time pass or hobby. They are saving the world one eye at a time. In 2012, Daphne Maurer, a development psychologist, proved that if people born with cataracts played Medal of Honor their eyesight improved. Well, the research didn\u2019t prove it, but it most emphatically suggested it.\nSonic the Hedgehog is also a gene inside our bodies. Robert Riddle, a post-doc in Britain named the gene after the character when he saw it in a comic book being read by his daughter. The then six year old girl was reading a Sonic comic when the gene, whose symbol is SHH, was discovered. The gene which has spiked appearance is responsible for separating the left side of the brain from the right side. It is also what determines that we have two eyes instead of one.\nThe guidelines set by US don\u2019t allow drugs to be shown in video games. Therefore, in the game Final Fantasy Legend II by Game Boy the drug dealers sold bananas in the back alleys instead of opium. The censorship refused to sell the game in America until the opium smugglers a player encountered in the game were changed.\nVideo games are not just for playing. They are for politics too. When Barack Obama began campaigning back in 2008, he bought the ad space in eighteen video games. The games he chose were targeted to people in the age range of 18 to 34. Some of these games were Madden, Skate and Burnout Paradise. The games were run in over ten states in the US, and the \u2018Vote For Change\u2019 billboard would appear in them.",

        "raw_content": "Graffiti for Passwords\nArs Technica has an interesting article about a new spin on passwords. Basically researchers have been testing a password system that involves the user drawing shapes in a box. Where they start, their subsequent strokes, and where they end is all recorded as the password. It is based on the simple fact that humans can remember images much better than they can complex alphanumeric strings.\n\u201cOne of the largest security challenges many organizations face come from the most basic aspect of security: user passwords. Humans simply have a limited capacity to remember otherwise insignificant streams of letters and digits; as a result, they often choose passwords that are easier to remember. Those memorable passwords, however, can fail in the face of dictionary attacks or guesses based on information such as birth dates or the names of family members.\u201d\nIt sounds like a neat, very promising security boost available for devices with precision input capabilities (computers with mice, mobile devices with touch screens, etc.), but the drawback is still the same as with any alphanumeric password: the user. Someone who doesn\u2019t take the time to create a strong alphanumeric password probably won\u2019t take the time to create a complex drawing. I think that adding this as an extra security layer on top of alphanumeric passwords is a good idea, but there are some hurdles to clear before it can completely replace your mother\u2019s maiden name.\nThe technical findings PDF can be found here.",

        "raw_content": "Home / College Wrestling News / National Collegiate Open Becoming Top Postseason Event For Non-Starters, Backups\nNational Collegiate Open Becoming Top Postseason Event For Non-Starters, Backups\nNow in its third year the National Collegiate Open is being held Saturday Feb. 19, 2011 at Clarion University. This tournament is a true open tournament that allows any post high school athlete wishing to compete in collegiate style wrestling to be able to wrestle. Additionally, the event provides a postseason style event for any non-starter and redshirt from any level of college wrestling. Registers from throughout the country are competing in the 2011 event.\nNational Collegiate Open Wrestling Championships homepage\nView 2011 List of Competing Wrestlers\nBy Matt Krumrie\nWIN Magazine Contributing Writer\nThe inaugural National Collegiate Open was held in 2009, at Clarion University, with 179 wrestlers competing. The event is managed and operated by the National Collegiate Open and is currently hosted by the Clarion University Pin Club. This year, 320 wrestlers are expected to compete.\nKyle N. Smith, a management consultant in Washington, D.C. by day, and full-time wrestling fanatic, is the organizer of this event. Smith, a former youth wrestler from New York and former college soccer player who also now coaches youth wrestling, talked about the idea and concept behind the National Collegiate Open.\nMatt Krumrie: Who will be competing in this tournament?\nSmith: There are many teams and individuals wrestling in the event and many Division I coaches have committed to supporting the event by sending their wrestlers. For example, coach Duane Goldman. at Indiana has been very supportive in getting as many of his guys out to compete each year as he can. The event is not limited to Division I, though that is the majority of the field and the main focus. Ideally, I would like get to the point where we are able to hold two divisions (University and College) where the college Division is D2/D3/NAIA programs. There is no doubt that, without the ability to redshirt, D3 has talented wrestlers unable to make their lineup.\nMK What is the goal of this tournament?\nSmith: The goal of the National Collegiate Open is to provide a post season championship for all of the wrestlers that are not able to compete in a post season event.\nSmith: I was thinking about the low retention rates in wrestling and how so many leave the sport. Wrestling is unique in that one athlete competes in one position (the weight class) and there is little flexibility to move to a new position like in other sports\u2014it is not a matter of your style or skill. Guys can train all year, win matches at opens, even win matches in dual meets but if they don\u2019t have the spot in the post season there is little way for their successes to be recognized. A wrestler could be pound for pound the second best on his team and not have a spot in the lineup if he can\u2019t beat the number one at his weight or the number one at the weight above. In basketball a non-starter can work into the lineup and be a part of a championship and the second best basketball player will be on the court even if he has to move positions. We say that championships are won in the wrestling room but we don\u2019t provide any recognition for those guys behind the scenes helping to win those championships.\nEven in other individual sports, like diving, multiple athletes from the same school can compete at championships. Wrestling has always marketed itself as a sport where anyone can compete no matter their size, but often their size correlates to their ability to compete in the post season\u2014rather than their skill. We don\u2019t use our 10 best wrestlers we use the best at each weight.\nWe, as a wrestling community, often judge a team by their performance in the post season and we also judge these individuals by their post season performance. For those outside the sport, they too judge our athletes based on their ability to make the lineup. If a student is in class while the starters of the team are at the conference championship then people would assume that the wrestler does not add value to the program\u2014especially if they have not wrestled in a competition all month.\nWhen the NCO held the first event, Cal State Basketball had four post season championships after the conference championships. If you didn\u2019t get into the NCAAs then you could play in the NIT, CBI, or CIT. Out of the 346 Division-I basketball schools nearly all go to the post season to play for their conference championship and 129 get an invitation to the post-post-season. This means that every athlete on the roster has the chance to work into the lineup and compete in the championship they attend.\nWhen you break it down nearly 40 percent of the Division-I basketball players are getting to finish their season at a national event that brings athletes, in similar situations, together on a level playing field from many conferences.\nWhen we compare it to Division-I (FBS) football we see that there are 120 schools in the FBS. Of those 10 will get invited to the BCS Bowls. Then there are an additional 60 schools that get invited to second tier post season bowl games. In all nearly 60 percent of the athletes in Division-I FBS are provided with the chance to travel with the team and experience championship competition and maybe compete in the post season\u2014if only for one play. This is not 60 percent that get to compete over the course of their careers but rather each and every season. Division I wrestling has 81 programs and average about 30 athletes per roster while providing post season competition for 330 wrestlers. This means that about less than 15 percent of college wrestlers get to compete on a national stage each year.\nIf we are going to grow wrestling, we need to change the paradigm. I have always felt that the sport does not thrive on the performance of our elite. Fans will stay based on the performance of the elite but they are not the ones that attract the fans. Personal connections\u2014institutional or personal\u2014will bring fans. Every year there will be 10 National Champions and 80 All-Americans no matter how tough the talent pool is that year or how weak it is that year this number will remain the same. If we want to promote the sport we have to recognize other successes. We need to give everyone something to strive for. We need to give respect to those that pay their dues and know that if fans in these other sports can support these programs, when they fall short of the elite post season competitions, then we too, as wrestling fans should be supporting all of those that pay their dues. These are the guys that keep the sport thriving. The All-Americans and national qualifiers, for the most part, have always been good and those around them have always known them to be exceptional wrestlers. If we want to attract more people to college wrestling we need to reach out to more people and this event allow for more athletes to find success which gets the people around them excited for what they have accomplished in the sport. We need to provide people with something to talk about.\nThe NCO provides an opportunity for these athletes to compete in a national event against athletes in the same situation as them\u2014just like all the other alternative championships mentioned. It allows athletes to see that though they might not be the best at their weight in the practice room, they can be one of the best in the country and recognized for their success. It provides athletes with something to train for, a reason to stay with the program when the focus has turned from pre-season opens to preparing the team for championships.\nWhen I spoke with them about this event, Teague Moore and Ethan Bosch at Clarion University were excited about the possibilities and were on board 100 percent. It is the Clarion University Pin Club that has made this event possible and the reason that it is a success. They are a dedicated group that is passionate about Clarion Wrestling and doing anything to help the sport.\nMK: How many people are competing this year?\nSmith: Currently we cap each weight class at 32 wrestlers due to facility limitations. But currently I am looking for a new facility that would provide for a great atmosphere for wrestling which could allow for some changes in the future. The guys deserve a first rate event. (Always open to suggestions.)\nSmith: The event is a true open. This is done to allow red-shirts to be able to get out and compete. Additionally, should there be any guys sitting out a year for any reason (transfer, personal issues, Ivy-Shirt, etc) they can enter. At this time we do not turn anyone away and even have some grad students that enter.\nCan you talk about the history of this event?\nSmith: The 2008-09 season had already started when we decided to hold the first event. It was just another open\u2014the final one of the season\u2014and nothing more than an idea. We were still unsure if it would even get enough people to show up to be viable. Coach Moore sent out emails to college coaches about the event in January and it didn\u2019t seem like there was much, if any, interest. Then Coach Moore received a phone call from TJ Kerr asking about the event and saying that he had seven athletes from Cal State-Bakersfield that wanted to fly out on their spring break to wrestle. That was where it started and when we were committed to hosting the event. We ended up with about 250 pre-registrations and 176 wrestlers showed up. It was a start. It was a success.\nWhen the first event was held, we had no idea what the talent level would be like. As I watched the competition in the first event it was hard to tell how talented the field was and if they would be a threat in the future. There were guys placing that hadn\u2019t placed in an open all season. There were blue chip recruits losing to backups or other redshirts. It was hard to tell at the time, but looking back and seeing the transition of the guys and seeing that the guys who stepped it up at this event, the guys who really did believe that they were on a national stage even if there were no fans in the stands, those were the guys that you see as starters, the guys you see going to nationals and in the ranking.\nThere were guys at this event that hadn\u2019t had a chance to wrestle in an open for a month or two and finally felt like they had something to look forward to and it re-energized them in their training. Even if the talent level wasn\u2019t clear, there was no doubt that these guys were laying it on the line. If they weren\u2019t able to beat the best starters across the country they were at least going to know that they were the best of all the guys like them. These wrestlers are passionate and they compete for themselves.\nAfter this weekend, every conference except for the Western Regional will have sent athletes from a school in the conference.\nMK: How has the event been received by wrestling coaches, competitors and fans?\nSmith: It wasn\u2019t until last year that people started to take notice. The first year we were sponsored by the United States Marine Corp and no one seemed to mention the National Collegiate Open. Most school SIDs and the wrestling media were calling it the Clarion Open even though everything we distributed listed the National Collegiate Open. After the second year some people started to ask what this event was about and there was a slight, although guarded, interest from the media.\nThis year, we feel like we are getting to the point where we can turn the corner and the event can start to take off. We are getting more coverage from the media and more support from coaches which is really making it a national event. The format has been changed for this year to two separate sessions which will provide a better atmosphere for the finals. We are planning to do a streaming audio feed announcing results during the day for all of the fans that are unable to attend as well as do three streaming video broadcast so that fans can watch all three mats for the 1-6 placers in the All-American round.\nAs a divergent thinker, I could go on and on about the ideas I have, how they relate, what benefits they draw, and what I would like to see in the sport to ensure that it grows. But I wanted to act rather than talk about it and at the moment I am just enjoying seeing this event grow and the excitement that true-freshmen and their parents have when they are successful against a field of competition just like them reassuring them that their efforts through the long and grueling season are being rewarded.\nI am always interested in talking wrestling, it is defiantly a passion of mine, and I welcome anyone contacting me through email at kylensmith@goldenhighlander.com.\nAbout Matt\u2019s Mat Notes\nMatt\u2019s Mat Notes is a new feature on WIN-Magazine.com which consists of feature stories, news, notes and quotes related to developments on and off the mat in college wrestling.

        "raw_content": "I brought to South Carolina two half-read books that I thought I might finish. One I\u2019m totally interested in, so it\u2019s a mystery to me why I simply don\u2019t finish it, but I started it in October, and yet here it is January, its bookmark nestled at page 213. The other one, a memoir, keeps annoying me\u2014it\u2019s self-indulgent and irritating for pages and pages, yet then comes up with some amazing insight that makes me fold over the corner of the page. It\u2019s also extremely easy and unchallenging to read, so given how busy I\u2019ve been here, I find it relaxing to pick it up before bedtime when I\u2019m tired of thinking. (Until yesterday night\u2014yeah cable guy!\u2014I\u2019ve had basically one or two snowy and fuzzy channels on my TV, so I guess this is a book fulfilling that role of relaxing mindlessness.)\nBut the real question is, why don\u2019t I just set it aside? Why do I keep pushing through it? (It\u2019s 365 pages, and I\u2019ve got a ways to go.) Is it because I\u2019m from Iowa, because I\u2019m so darn stubborn that I need to FINISH a book, even though it isn\u2019t satisfying? I\u2019ve heard of people who read 50 pages or so and if they don\u2019t like it, they\u2019ll happily set the book aside without a lick of angst and move on to the next one. In my next life, I hope I\u2019m one of those people.\nSeveral years ago, I tried to read Atonement, and got halfway through\u2014to the place where \u201cPart II\u201d was about to start and just stopped, even though I thought the book was fine enough. But the bookmark is still there, and I still feel guilty about the whole situation. (I even thought about bringing it to South Carolina, too!)\nI guess I don\u2019t like that state of limbo. If I don\u2019t finish, I can\u2019t list it in my \u201cbooks journal\u201d and move it to a new bookshelf. So I guess I\u2019ll just keep plowing. I\u2019ll let you know if I ever finish or if it quietly disappears onto the shelves in the basement, to the place of guilt, next to Atonement.",

Discover.ly does this job perfectly, allowing you to write more appealing and personalized social network copies.\n5. Agora Pulse\nWith all the regular work hanging over their heads, small and medium-sized companies are often struggling to manage social media pages.

It has a superior scheduling dashboard but also some serious analytical capabilities. Tail Wind will automatically suggest you the best hashtag for all posts, extending the reach of your images to the maximum. Another great thing about this app is that it\u2019s not expensive, so you might find it both in big and small companies.\nHere is the tool that enables you to discover everything anyone says about your brands, products, or services on social media.

        "raw_content": "Targeting brain metastases in ALK-rearranged non-small-cell lung cancer\nI. Zhang, Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine\nN. G. Zaorsky\nThe incidence of brain metastases has increased as a result of improved systemic control and advances in imaging. However, development of novel therapeutics with CNS activity has not advanced at the same rate. Research on molecular markers has revealed many potential targets for antineoplastic agents, and a particularly important aberration is translocation in the ALK gene, identified in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ALK inhibitors have shown systemic efficacy against ALK-rearranged NSCLC in many clinical trials, but the effectiveness of crizotinib in CNS disease is limited by poor blood-brain barrier penetration and acquired drug resistance. In this Review, we discuss potential pathways to target ALK-rearranged brain metastases, including next generation ALK inhibitors with greater CNS penetration and mechanisms to overcome resistance. Other important mechanisms to control CNS disease include targeting pathways downstream of ALK phosphorylation, increasing the permeability of the blood-brain barrier, modifying the tumour microenvironment, and adding concurrent radiotherapy.",

Acta Scientific Dental Sciences 2.9 (2018).\nOral cancer is a worldwide concern and its prevalence is increasing in spite of the efforts of health care providers. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most prevalent of them and despite of several treatment methods, has a high mortality rate (as much as 50%) [1]. This reflects the importance of preventive methods among general population and specially among people who are at high risk for SCC. The first step can be increasing their information about predisposing factors and also scheduling regular screening for early diagnosis which is critical in survival rate of SCC [2]. On the other hand, development of predictive methods can help physicians to detect potential tendency to malignancy and thus can lead to more effective prevention. So studies on biomarkers of SCC in serum, saliva and also tissue markers are of high importance [3,4].\nThere are lesions and conditions which are not malignant but have more tendency to convert to SCC, called \u201cpremalignant\u201d such as leukoplakia, erythroplakia and oral lichen planus. They can have no symptom thus may be detected in regular oral examination. Nowadays detecting these lesions in the oral cavity, clinicians should take biopsy and study them histopathologically. Detecting any cellular or tissue dysplasia, guide them to more aggressive treatment of the suspected lesions and also to close monitoring patients in order to prevent SCC. However there can be some molecular messengers prior to cellular or tissue alteration and ignoring them can lead to missing the suspicion for SCC. So confirming the predictivity of these markers and making them available as a part of management of premalignant lesions can lead to better prevention [5]. All these efforts are because the worldwide society need more protection against this fatal oral cancer, SCC.\nCopyright: \u00a9 2018 Sara Pourshahidi.

        "raw_content": "On February 10, 2016 February 10, 2016 By kmarie6pIn Adventure, camping, Hiking, Travel\nMy drive from Colorado to Florida was much less eventful than my trip back to Colorado. After a pit stop in New Orleans (and an unfortunate missed turn that had me stuck behind a celebratory and rambunctious crowd of Mardi Gras parade watchers) to see a couple friends, I headed out to Texas. My goal was 13 hours away, Palo Duro Canyon State Park. I wasn\u2019t going to get there until about 11:00 pm, another late night arrival to a campsite I had never been to before.\nI called ahead to reserve a campsite and the park ranger gave me the gate code so I could get into the park later that night. That day of driving was miserably long, but thank god for podcasts. I started listening to True Murder\u2026why I do these things to myself, I have no idea. Of course the first and second episodes had cases that took place in Texas. By the time I arrived it was frigid outside, an icy 23 degrees. I was decently prepared for cold weather, having packed my sleeping bag, a fleece blanket, and a down comforter when I had originally left Colorado. Blankets and pillows are a must have for me when on a long road trip. Bella also has a really comfy dog bed which I had layered on the back seat for extra sleeping comfort. After a few trials, I am starting to get the hang of making a decent sleeping spread in the back seat of my car; although I\u2019m still hoping for an SUV asap.\nMy campsite was 5 miles from the entrance of the park, where an electric gate opened up after I punched in the correct code. There was not a cloud in the sky or any light pollution from the city of Amarillo. The stars were breath taking as the crisp air seemed to make them appear even brighter. We saw several mule deer fawns running across the steeper sections of the canyon roads. It was eerily dark around my campsite and I was the only one camping out there. The first spot that I pulled up to seemed like a nice spot to stop. That is until I got out and something screeched at me from the bushes. Yeahhh that wasn\u2019t going to work. I drove a little bit farther down the road, found a suitable site with no screeching critters, and prepared for our wintry night in the car. Under the safety of my blankets and with Bella lying right next to me, I slept fine despite the below freezing temperatures. We awoke to frost across all the windows, and a still cloud free, beautiful, blue sky.\nI drove up to the visitors center to acquire a park map so we could do some hiking before heading back to Denver. The guy behind the counter was friendly and we had a great conversation before I hit the trails. I wanted to see the popular \u201cLight House,\u201d so that\u2019s the trail we hiked. It was 6 miles through the bottom of the canyon up to this beautiful stone pillar. Bella was having a blast and making lots of friends, they were shocked to see her climbing some of the rocks along the trail. I chuckled to myself and explained that this was fairly mild compared to what she\u2019s used to doing back in Colorado. By this time it had warmed up to a very nice 55 degrees and there were a lot of people showing up as we headed back towards the start of the trail. I was impressed with the amount of younger people who were there. I like seeing young kids and teens out exploring and enjoying nature.\nOn our way out of town, I was going to make a pit stop at Cadillac Ranch. However, I never made it over due to the large truck that came crashing into the side of my car. It was a very minor accident, although the right side of my car will need to replaced and I cannot currently open my front passenger door. The police took 2 hours to get to us, pushing my arrival time in Denver to 10:00 pm, which was midnight back home in Florida. I was exhausted and hungry and couldn\u2019t wait to get to my bed. We did make finally, the third installment, the absolute saddest story I\u2019ve heard in a while, of the True Murder podcasts, kept me awake for the end of the drive.\n#coloradoamarillocampingchocolate labexplore moreHikingnever stop exploringpalo duro canyon state parkTexasWinter\nOne thought on \u201cCamping and Car Accidents\u201d\nThose pictures are beautiful\ud83d\ude00",

        "raw_content": "Africa-UK moving forward together\nrade relations are changing globally. As regional groupings are disrupted and reformed, global value chains contract, protectionism creeps in and the digital economy strengthens, old hat trading portfolios look increasingly out-dated. Without a doubt, enthusiasm for multilateralism has waned and the World Trade Organisation faces an existential crisis having not completed a new round of global trade liberalisation in two decades, since the Doha Round. For most of the past seven decades global trade grew twice as fast as the global economy and increased on average by nearly 7% a year, according to the IMF. Since the financial crisis and a commodities tumble, trade growth has averaged just 3% since 2012. On this footing, many are beginning to look to bilateralism and the possibility of forging better structured and more rewarding trade deals. As each country strikes out its competitive advantage, new trade partners are envisaged and Africa and the UK find themselves at this coterminous juncture today. Development and shared prosperity are key to the priorities of the UK, which is helping its African partners to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), so all parties are set to benefit.\nAfrica-UK trade\nThe UK has a long tradition of trading with African nations. The UK is the world\u2019s sixth-largest exporter and in terms of its European counterparts, exports around 20% more to third party countries. UK exports to non-EU countries are 43% higher than in 2007 and exports to Africa have grown at an annual average rate of 8.7% over the last 20 years. This growing trend represents significant opportunities for African nations and companies looking to do business. Indeed, trade between UK and Africa totalled \u00a328.7bn in 2016, with the biggest recipients of UK exports being South Africa and Nigeria. As it stands most of the UK\u2019s bilateral agreements are pegged to the European Union \u2013 the Financial Times found a total of 759 agreements covering trade in nuclear goods, customs, fisheries, transport and financial services. Although these agreements will need to be re-worked post-Brexit, Liam Fox, UK secretary of state for international trade, has confirmed this will happen with \u201czero disruption\u201d. Brexit, even, will be a golden opportunity for Africa to entrench and expand its trade relations with the UK government\u2019s growing international vision.\nThe UK\u2019s Department for International Trade (DIT) is leading the push and acts as the go-to deal broker for UK companies doing business in Africa. The vision is to use the UK\u2019s expertise to partner and collaborate with African governments and the business community to support sustainable economic growth through industry job and wealth creation. Its team of advisers located in 24 offices across Africa (with a main office in Johannesburg) provides expertise in sectors ranging from manufacturing and construction to services and technology, with a focus on infrastructure and energy. It has been instrumental in helping UK firms invest more in the continent and creating a robust trade policy environment to enter new markets and build on existing ones.\nDIT Africa has established an African Trade Services Unit, which works directly with UK SMEs to answer trade and investment queries, identify business opportunities and help companies better understand the markets in Africa. An initiative called the Africa Economic Horizons is also being piloted in Kenya, Ethiopia and Tanzania and is designed to pull together the department\u2019s experience and expertise across trade policy, diplomacy, and aid to ensure bilateral growth opportunities are maximised and commercial and development outcomes are delivered. Government collaboration in Africa is a key priority for the UK as it aims to forge new trading relationships that maximise benefits for developing countries and the UK. DIT has also created an Africa Infrastructure Board which brings together notable British infrastructure companies with a footprint in Africa to collectively\nidentify infrastructure programmes across Africa and work together with governments and industry leaders to facilitate deals. Future infrastructure deals could support African development by improving the\ncontinent\u2019s health, transportation and\neducation facilities.\nThe UK is one of the top investors in Africa. In 2015 it ranked second in the world at $64bn, according to a UN report. Mining and quarrying and financial services were the main sectors in receipt of UK foreign direct investment, and accounted for 54.4% and 34.3% respectively in 2014. Indeed, the UK services export share is higher than any G7 economy at around 12% of GDP, compared to about 8% in Germany and France, 4% in the US and 3% in Japan. British investment in Africa more than doubled between 2005 and 2014 and over the same period African investment in the UK grew by over 500% to \u00a33bn.\nThe scope and breadth of investment in Africa and vice-versa is impressive, yet more is possible. One initiative working to boost investment, the ODI project, engages in research, servicing investors, creating propositions, gathering evidence and long-term methodology in order to support British investors. The project has established support for over 250 UK companies in Ethiopia, Kenya and South Africa.\nThe UK also offers competitive and innovative financing with the national export credit agency, UK Export Finance (UKEF). As its CEO, Louis Taylor, puts it, the organisation believes that \u201cno trade with the UK should fail for lack of finance or insurance. We want to ensure the quality of UK products and services is matched by agreeable payment terms and competitive finance.\u201d UKEF can give overseas project sponsors attractive-long term financing that makes sourcing from the UK more competitive, either in the form of guarantees on bank lending or by borrowing directly from the UK government at competitive rates. As a complete package, goods and services are accompanied by attractive finance with repayment terms of 2\u201310 years, stretching up to 18 in sectors such as renewable energy.\nIn 2015, UKEF joined African Trade Insurance (ATI) as a shareholder, working together to identify and promote real business opportunities where UK and African countries can collaborate and encourage trade. UKEF and ATI can also share risk with other ATI-members in strategically important markets, increasing risk capacity for projects in African countries sourcing goods and services from the UK.\nAs an illustration of how this works in practice, UKEF\u2019s loan of \u00a3250m, its largest ever to an African government will help finance the construction of a new international airport in the Kabaale region of Uganda. This will become the country\u2019s second international airport, and have significant long-term benefits for the country\u2019s economy. UKEF\u2019s finance will help support work on the construction of the runway, taxiway, cargo terminal and other necessary infrastructure to be undertaken by the UK arm of infrastructure firm Colas UK.\nWith competitive financing and sector-specific expertise, the UK government and DIT have helped numerous projects \u2013 mostly in infrastructure and energy \u2013 come to fruition in Africa. The projects continue to have a transformational impact in terms of integrating local companies into the global supply chain and job and wealth creation.\nThe Africa team at DIT have been working with British companies in East Africa to bring investment, skills and knowledge to support the rise of the energy sector in this region. For example, the University of Aberdeen teamed up with University of Dar es Salaam on a $2m grant to develop local human resource capabilities. The universities have developed a curriculum across a range of energy related disciplines including engineering, geosciences, social services, business and law.\nIn terms of technical assistance and financing strategies DIT has been working with numerous African governments to get projects off the ground. In Ethiopia, DIT helped Mott MacDonald, a British engineering and development consultancy firm, provide technical review and advisory service to the Ethiopian Railway Corporation to help the optimisation of the design of a 760km standard gauge electrified railway from Addis Ababa to the port of Djibouti, a development which will significantly boost Ethiopia\u2019s trade prospects. In South Sudan the government reappointed DIT to run a Basic Services Fund (BSF) which assigns funds to non-government contractors to provide essential infrastructure and services. In Ghana, DIT provided technical assistance to Ghana Water Company Ltd for the rehabilitation and expansion of water systems across 10 regions of Ghana. They worked to determine and establish the full range of activities, investments and other measures needed to ensure the safety of dams and reliability of water services.\nIn addition, UK legal services continue to provide support to countries across Africa. From training programmes for judiciaries to structuring finance for infrastructure projects, UK legal practitioners and English law continue to support economic development across Africa.\nAs Emma Wade-Smith, the UK\u2019s trade commissioner for Africa says, \u201cWe continue to work hard to build a strong platform from which to help UK companies explore the full range of opportunities to build good commercial partnerships in Africa. The UK\u2019s sectoral and financing strengths match well with what many African economies are looking for, to help generate more jobs and inclusive growth. I\u2019m excited about the scope for the UK to do even more to partner with African governments and business.\u201d\nIn short, DIT is leveraging its expertise in infrastructure and energy to provide much needed services and know-how to African partners. The department also works to boost trade and capital flows between Africa and the UK and functions as an authoritative go-between for any government or company wishing to do business. As the UK looks further afield than traditional regionally mandated trading partners, Africa can only be set to gain from a new trade logic in the UK. At the same time, British companies and the UK government are well on track to recognising the enormous opportunities Africa can offer the UK, and organisations like DIT are committed to ensuring these are not wasted. In this new context both Africa and the UK are on to a win-win relationship. n\nDITAfricaTrade@mobile.trade.gov.uk",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Uncategorized \u00bb How far is it from Hildesheim? [Not very far.]\nHow far is it from Hildesheim? [Not very far.]\nTo be the first of anything is a double-edged sword. Imagine the responsibilities resting on the shoulders of Northwest Iowa Normal College president-elect Professor Wilhelm Reinhardt, PhD.\nWilhelm Auguste Karl Ernst Reinhardt was born in Hildesheim, Germany in 1874 (which had been annexed to the Kingdom of Prussia a few years earlier). Why did I choose Hildesheim? Because it has a wonderful early Medieval church, St Michael\u2019s, that I use to illustrate the spontaneous eruption of the Romanesque architectural style around A.D. 1000\u2014when the Second Coming should have happened but didn\u2019t, a disappointment compensated by a flurry of building activity not seen again until the 1989 reunification of Germany. Looks like a nice town.\nLet\u2019s imagine him a middling child, third oldest of seven, in a household sufficiently well off to send one of its sons to university at G\u00f6ttingen, only sixty miles south in the province of Hanover. One source credits G\u00f6ttingen as the most modern of Germany\u2019s 18th century universities, perhaps through its ties to England and the House of Hanover. I was pleased to see that \u201cmodern\u201d meant a demotion of theology in favor of law; where seminars displaced disputation and the natural sciences attained the greatest acclaim. They wouldn\u2019t have let me in, but if they had, at least the requirement to speak Latin would have been waived.\nLet\u2019s have young Wilhelm arrive from his local gymnasium at age seventeen or eighteen and proceed through the standard four-to-six year curriculum in history, graduating circa 1898, fresh for employment potential here in the U.S., when American universities sought the status that came with European credentials. That was certainly true in architecture, when a degree from the \u00c9cole des Beaux Arts was a passport to academic success in the U.S. But just to be sure, Wilhelm\u2019s M.A. (Magister Artium) degree ought to have been prologue to the Ph.D., attained after a further period of study. That put him in the job market shortly after the turn of the century. But what might have brought him to America?\nIn 1904 St Louis, Missouri was the site of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, a World\u2019s Fair, in a city with substantial German population\u2014perhaps including Reinhardt relatives. The history of 19th century America can be told through the leap-frogging of emigrant families, one generation paving a way for the next (children establishing themselves and making a place for parents; one parent finding work and eventually sending for the spouse and kids). I can certainly flesh this out in time. It could be that young Reinhardt had some connection with the division of Prussian bureaucracy responsible for the German exhibit at the Fair, a statement of Germanic culture and industry in a portion of the Mississippi River valley already heavily populated with emigrants from the Fatherland. [What\u2019s the difference between a Fatherland and a Motherland, anyway?]\nProfessor Reinhardt might have found work at Washington University, then building its new campus near the site of the 1904 Exposition in Forest Park, and perhaps craving the products of rigorous German education. That puts him in a region close to Iowa at an age (31 or thereabouts) and a context (professor of history) convenient for him to have seen the notice of opportunity for academic advancement at Agincourt.\nSo many question unanswered. So many opportunities unexplored, not the least of them being his arrival in Iowa at the outbreak of World War.\n[Incidentally, the Hildesheim town hall suffered a good deal of war damage (I suspect) and appears far less interesting today than it did closer to the turn of the 20th century, shown in the postcard view above.]\n[And a further postscript: the title of this entry should be sung to the tune of a not-so-popular Christmas carol.]\nBy agincourtiowa in Uncategorized on Wednesday/20/February/2013 .\n\u2190 300 Posts\tIf I had talent\u2026 \u2192",

        "raw_content": "If you think you might be pregnant, or you\u2019re not sure whether the symptoms you\u2019re feeling are pregnancy-related, we can help. This quick online questionnaire will help you determine whether or not you\u2019re experiencing the early signs of pregnancy.\nQuestion 1: Are you using birth control?\nBirth control can be effective at preventing pregnancy, but only when it is used correctly (and remember it\u2019s not always guaranteed to work 100%). Unfortunately many people who use birth control don\u2019t always use it properly. Other birth control methods, such as the withdrawal method, reliable. If you\u2019re using an alternate method \u2013 or not using birth control at all \u2013 you\u2019re much more likely to be pregnant.\nQuestion 2: When did you last have your period?\nOne of the most reliable signs of being pregnant is if your period is late or never comes. However, some women also experience cramping and spotting in early pregnancy that makes them think they are having a period. Other women have irregular menstrual cycles that are difficult to track. In these cases, you may want to schedule a pregnancy test or medical consultation.\nQuestion 3: When did you last ovulate?\nOvulation is the process of releasing an egg from your ovaries to be fertilized. If you have sex around the time of ovulation, your chances of becoming pregnant go up dramatically. Ovulation usually occurs around 2 weeks after your last menstrual period starts, though this timing can vary between women. Keep in mind, too, that a man\u2019s sperm can live inside your body for several days. This makes pregnancy much more likely around the time of ovulation.\nQuestion 4: Are you experiencing early pregnancy symptoms?\nThere are many symptoms of early pregnancy, including:\nCramping or light spotting\nIndigestion and constipation\nHowever, not all women have the same pregnancy symptoms or experience them the same way. If you\u2019re experiencing a combination of the above symptoms, pregnancy is more likely, but only a pregnancy test can tell you for sure.\nQuestion 5: Have you already taken a pregnancy test?\nIf you\u2019ve already taken a pregnancy test, you might be wondering whether or not your result was accurate. There are two kinds of inaccurate tests: false negatives and false positives.\nFalse negatives \u2013 where the test says you aren\u2019t pregnant but you really are \u2013 are common. The usual reason for a false negative is not waiting long enough to take the test. Pregnancy tests are more accurate when you wait longer for pregnancy hormones to build up in your body. To get a definite reading from a pregnancy test, you\u2019ll need to wait until after you should have started your period.\nOn the other hand, false positives \u2013 where the test says you are pregnant but you\u2019re not \u2013 are extremely rare. They generally only occur when you are taking specific medications or have other health problems. In almost every case, if you have a positive pregnancy test it means you are pregnant.\nQuestion 6: Have you gotten an ultrasound?\nIf you\u2019ve received a positive pregnancy test, your next step is to schedule an ultrasound to make sure your pregnancy is healthy. Our clinic provides free pregnancy testing, free ultrasounds, and other pregnancy support services. Contact us today to schedule a free and confidential appointment.",

The duo will perform Bach\u2019s Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, widely considered one of the greatest concertos ever written. For some Bach is known as the grandfather of all classical music, and his mastery of form, harmony, and style culminate in the double violin concerto.\nThe orchestra will also perform A Prayer for Spring by composer in residence, Chris Rogerson. This piece was composed in 2008 and is a lush, romantic work, easy to grasp on first hearing. The night continues as the orchestra performs Ravel\u2019s Le tombeau de Couperin and followed by Brahms\u2019 Symphony No. 2 in D major.\n\u201cOur season opener, BACH & BRAHMS celebrates the classics the Amarillo Symphony musicians perform so richly and with passion,\u201d said Jacomo Rafael Bairos, Music Director and Conductor. \u201cWe are excited to dedicate the entire season to our dear friend Eddie Melin who was an avid supporter of the Amarillo Symphony. This concert is the beginning of what is going to be an exciting and eventful time for the symphony. Our future together on this journey has never been brighter.\u201d\nBACH & BRAHMS will be held at the Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts on Friday, September 18 and Saturday, September 19 at 7:30 pm. For more information about this performance or to purchase tickets, please visit www.amarillosymphony.org or call 806-376-8782. Single tickets are available for $15, $30 or $45 plus applicable fees.

        "raw_content": "\u00bb2014 Film Reviews\u00bbThe Fault In Our Stars (2014)\nHazel Lancaster, a precocious 16-year-old cancer patient, suffers from severely damaged lungs ever since her diagnosis three years prior. Concerned about her daughter\u2019s propensity to languish around the house and obsessively re-read her favorite book, Hazel\u2019s mom finds a cancer support group in hopes it will help with Hazel\u2019s despondency. During one of these dreaded group meetings, Hazel stumbles across an audaciously charming cancer survivor, Augustus Waters, who, despite the loss of his right leg, still has a wit-filled zest for unconventional pleasures. Intrigued by his brazen attitude towards life, Hazel and Augustus begin spending more time together, sparking a star-crossed tale of love and discovery as these two refuse to allow their illnesses to define who they are.\nBased on the young adult novel of the same name written by John Green, The Fault In Our Stars is the latest in a glut of films aimed at the 13-18-year-old age group with the hopes of fleecing their surplus of expendable cash. I, being a male in his thirties, was understandably hesitant about going to what was being labeled a teen tearjerker. However, my curiosity as a movie fan got the better of me and I managed to find a matinee showing where I was one of only three in attendance.\nThe film\u2019s biggest attraction is Shailene Woodley, who has recently been thrust into role of young adult darling. Unlike many others, I have yet to drink the Kool-Aid when it comes to anointing her the next big star. Admittedly however, Woodley\u2019s innocent, girl next door charm fits perfectly the slew of sweet, high school student roles she\u2019s been gobbling up recently, making her this generation\u2019s version of Molly Ringwald. The Fault In Our Stars is her most demanding role to date, as she is adeptly captures the frustrations of a vibrant, spirited young woman whose path in life is now being dictated by this unrelenting disease.\nIn only his third acting gig, 20-year-old Ansel Elgort has an undeniable charm that feels well beyond an actor of such minimal hands-on expertise. While Elgort\u2019s inexperience seemed to surface at time during moments of distraught, overall, Ansel, with his boyish good looks and a cocksure smile that exudes an aura of understated bravado, truly owned his character Gus. Together, Woodley and Elgort create one of most heartfelt and sincere depictions of young love in recent memory.\nWith so many of us directly or indirectly effected, cancer is never an enjoyable topic. One of film\u2019s true gifts was its graceful examination such a frightening subject matter without ever over-sensationalizing or sugarcoating. Josh Boone, in only his second directorial effort, does a capable job exploring topics that include the effects cancer has on the family and acceptance of the real possibility of death, all while adding just the right touch of humor to help break up some of the more heartrending moments. Boone also however, makes sure that the cancer storyline never overshadows the film\u2019s true star, its earnest love story.\nSome may feel film patronizes or indulges its impressionable intended audience, attempting to feel more thematically profound than what it really is. While this may be true to some point, overall, I still appreciate that The Fault In Our Stars asked its predominately younger audience to examine and experience real emotions about a subject matter that will most likely touch them in some way in the not so distant future. For better or worse, Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort will be forever linked by the shared love and bond they so skillfully portrayed. That love, in all its sentimentality and melodrama, is still a genuine and sincere portrait that deserves to be praised and appreciated. Because after all, like many others out there, I am a hopeless romantic and a sucker for a good love story, and that\u2019s exactly what The Fault In Our Stars is.-JL\n(for those curious, no I did not cry \ud83d\ude09 )\nTags: Amsterdam, Ansel Elgort, cancer, Josh Boone, Shailene Woodley Permalink\n\u2190 How To Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)\nJoe (2014) \u2192\n10 comments on \u201cThe Fault In Our Stars (2014)\u201d\ngarylee828 June 19, 2014 at 11:04 am\tReply\nI think this is the first time I\u2019ve been on your blog; looks good.\namateurcinefile June 19, 2014 at 11:35 am\tReply\nThank you, I\u2019m glad you got the chance to check it out considering it was your encouragement that restarted this hobby.

        "raw_content": "The Pentagon has caved to an atheist group who have demanded that one of the nation\u2019s largest churches to remove insignia representing the branches of the military from an upcoming freedom celebration.\nTodd Starnes reports that The First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas was planning to honor members of the military during a special June 25 worship service called, \u201cFreedom Sunday.\u201d\n\u201cFreedom Sunday is a celebration of both our freedoms as Americans and the freedoms we as Christians have through faith in Christ,\u201d said First Baptist senior pastor Robert Jeffress.\nThe annual event has caused outrage among atheists and city leaders because of the title of the pastor\u2019s sermon: \u201cAmerica is a Christian Nation.\u201d\nThe church\u2019s advertisement was removed from billboards after complaints were raised by a Dallas Morning News columnist that the pastor\u2019s message was hateful and divisive.\n\u201cThe message will present the historical evidence for the bedrock of faith upon which America was founded,\u201d said Jeffress, who also serves as a spiritual advisor to President Trump.\nThe Military Religious Freedom Foundation jumped into the controversy by objecting to the church\u2019s use of the official seals of the branches of the U.S. military.\nMRFF President Mikey Weinstein wrote in a letter to the Pentagon that the church\u2019s program was \u201crepulsive\u201d and use of the seals was a violation of military policy.\n\u201cIt is imperative that First Baptist Dallas be stopped from associating Robert Jeffress\u2019 divisive, prejudiced, and bigoted version of fundamentalist Christian supremacy, domination and exclusivity directly with the U.S. Armed Forces,\u201d Weinstein wrote.\nThe Pentagon agreed and sent a letter asking the church to remove the military graphics from the program.\n\u201cWe are concerned that use of the DoD Component marks creates an appearance of endorsement and or affiliation with your church\u2019s Freedom Sunday, when that is not the case,\u201d a Pentagon official wrote to Jeffress. \u201cFederal regulations prohibit the use of official military markings in ways that imply endorsement of a commercial entity or activity.\u201d\nThe Pentagon also said the church had unknowingly violated trademark licensing laws.\n\u201cBecause your church has apparently used these seals in the past, we presume you are unaware that the DoD and the Military Service seals, along with many other military insignia, are protected by law from unauthorized use and may only be used for official purposes,\u201d the Pentagon official wrote.\n\u201cWe understand your goal is to recognize the men and women in the military,\u201d the Pentagon official wrote. \u201cTherefore, recommend the continued use of the phrase \u2018Salute to our U.S. Armed Forces\u2019 without the military marks.\u201d\nIronically, First Baptist Dallas used the same military graphics during a performance for President Trump at the Kennedy Center. The Pentagon did not object to that usage.\nNevertheless, Jeffress said the church will comply with the Pentagon\u2019s demand letter.\n\u201cWe have no animus towards the Defense Department,\u201d he said. \u201cWe are still honoring the military and I am still preaching the same sermon.\u201d\nUnbelievable. This county has gone to hell since Obama was fraudulently elected.",

        "raw_content": "The Vigneron's House Plums\nFleurieu Food + Wine Art Prize (2016), Highly Commended\nThe Fleurieu Food + Wine Art Prize is part of the Fleurieu Art Prize, celebrating the art, food and wine of the Fleurieu Peninsula region with a $10,000, non-acquisitive prize for paintings with a food and wine theme. The judges for the Food + Wine Art Prize are highly respected in the art world and include artist and Associate Professor Lecturer, Drawing at Adelaide Central School of Art, Chris Orchard, Director of Anne & Gordon Samstag Museum of Art, Erica Green and Peter Walker of Peter Walker Fine Art Gallery.\nSizes 76cm x 76cm\nOil paints on stretched cotton canvas\nIn China, the camellia represents the union between two lovers. The delicately layered petals represent the woman, and the calyx (the green leafy part of the stem that holds the petals together) represents the man who protects her. The two components are joined together, even after death. Typically when the petals of a flower fall off, the calyx will stay intact. With camellias however, the calyx and petals fall away together, which is why the camellia also represents eternal love or long-lasting devotion.\nSizes 100cm x 76cm\nOne of the symbolic meanings of the peony is \u201cshyness\u201d where a stem of the flower can be translated into \u201cblushing girl\u201d. In French culture, there is even an expression that says, \u201cas red as a peony\u201d. Other lure uses this symbolism to express embarrassment, which is referenced in several poems about nymphs and fairies covering their naked bodies with peony petals from prying eyes. Myth says that it is extremely harmful to your karma to ever remove a rooted peony from your landscaping once it has been planted.\nEggs in Glass Bowl\nOil paints on stretched linen canvas\nSince Ancient Times to the Present Day, we have surrounded the egg with magical and supernatural beliefs. Eggs symbolize birth and new life, and were believed to ensure fertility. They also represent rebirth, and hence long life and even immortality. Eggs symbolize life in its different stages of development, encompassing the magic and mystery of creation.\nEarly mythmakers viewed both the sun and the egg as the progenitors of all life; the round, yellow yolk symbolizing the sun.\nWestern New York Architecture (Buffalo and Surrounding Towns)\nBuffalo, New York was founded on a rich tradition of architectural experimentation. The city contains buildings designed by American architecture masters like Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan, and H.H. Richardson, making Buffalo one of the most architecturally significant cities in America.\nThe Pan-American Exposition was held in Buffalo from May 1 to November 2, 1901. Buffalo was chosen as the location because of its size (at the time it was the eighth largest city in the U.S. with a population of approximately 350,000) and also because of its well suited railway connections.\nRenown authors F. Scott Fitzgerald and Mark Twain were both residents of Buffalo.\nPeonies on Table\nThe Sarah Bernhardt peony was introduced in 1906 by the French breeder Monsieur Lemoine and named after Sarah Bernhardt, a French actress who slept in a peony filled coffin as preparation for a role.\nConsidered to be the most famous actress of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Bernhardt was not just recognized for her intense performances that left her often passing out at the end of each show, but also for her eccentric, flamboyant and scandalous lifestyle. Her international stardom, numerous affairs and entourage of exotic animals, which included a cheetah, a wolf, a boa-constrictor, and an alligator named Ali-Gaga (before it\u2019s untimely death of being fed too much milk and champagne) saw her name appear in one publication after another everyday throughout her 60 year career.\nWhite Flowers and Lemons\nIn ancient Greek and Roman mythology, the Calla Lily represented the goddess Hera, from whom it was believed the flowers came. The myth is that Zeus brought his mortal son Hercules to his wife Hera to nurse from her as she slept. Zeus wanted his son to have divine powers from drinking Hera\u2019s milk, but because the child was from another woman, Hera flung Hercules away from her when she woke up. Her milk flew out through the universe to create the Milky Way, and a few drops fell to Earth, where beautiful white lilies sprung from the ground. In Roman mythology, Venus, the goddess of love and lust, saw the flowers, and in a fit of jealousy over their beauty, she made them grow a large pistil in their centre.\nLong a symbol of love and passion, the ancient Greeks and Romans associated roses with Aphrodite and Venus, goddesses of love. Used for hundreds of years to convey messages without words, they also represent confidentiality. In fact, the Latin expression \"sub rosa\" (literally, \"under the rose\") means something told in secret, and in ancient Rome, a wild rose was placed on the door to a room where confidential matters were being discussed.\nDutch Peonies\nPeonies have been used and cultivated for over 4000 years in China. There are hundreds of cultivars, of which only a few can be found in gardens in Central Europe.\nIn Europe, herbaceous peonies are a part of ancient Greek mythology and are highly regarded for their medicinal properties. The root, bark, seed and flowers were all believed to have medicinal uses in eastern Asia and Europe. Ancient Greeks and Christians from the Middle Ages believed peonies were a symbol for healing. They were used to treat stomach pains, bladder issues, jaundice and even nightmares.\nPink Peonies, yellow background\nThe colour yellow relates to acquired knowledge. It is the colour which resonates with the left or logic side of the brain stimulating our mental faculties and creating mental agility and perception.\nBeing the lightest hue of the spectrum, the colour psychology of yellow is uplifting and illuminating, offering hope, happiness, cheerfulness and fun.\nIn the meaning of colours, yellow inspires original thought and inquisitiveness.\nYellow is creative from a mental aspect, the colour of new ideas, helping us to find new ways of doing things. It is the practical thinker, not the dreamer.\nQuince (Cydonia Oblonga), one of the oldest fruit on Earth, has powerful historic symbolism, beautiful aroma and therapeutic properties. It was suggested as the 'apple' that Eve gave to Adam in the Garden of Eden. Aphrodite is often depicted holding a quince in her hand as a symbol of love.\nCurly Sticks\nIt is said that trees are vessels, containing strata of revolutionary wisdom, and are a metaphor for spiritual growth. Here the artist has created an organic study of perspective and fluidity through her representation of convoluted sticks. She sets the subject against a Manganese Violet and Iron Oxide Black background, attaining a contrast for the light bathed element. The artist uses thick, jewel-like glazes to reproduce bark-like texture. She establishes a sense of perspective with sharp and soft focal points.\nFramed (white with white mount and glass)\nWith its bold flavours and rich colours, the pomegranate traces back to 3,500 B.C. The countless seeds inside this large, blushed-red berry have rendered the pomegranate symbolic of prosperity, eternal life, wisdom, fertility, and good luck.\nThe pastel layering technique evident in this artwork achieves subtle variations of colour that accurately represent the glow and transparency of the pomegranate seed.\nSanguine pastel medium on 100% cotton paper\nFramed with glass and double mount\nBecause perfume was a precious and costly substance in ancient times, it was typically restricted to the wealthy. Royalty and clergy were most likely to use fragrance, a tendency that continued throughout ancient Egypt, Rome, Greece and elsewhere. In ancient Greece, a person who was too poor to afford perfume might simply have a perfume bottle painted on their coffin, a tribute to the gods.\nEgyptian Perfume Bottle\nPerfumes and fragrances can be traced most notably to the ancient Egyptian civilization. In fact, Egyptians associated their perfumes with the gods. The fragrances were considered to be the sweat of the sun god, Ra. Given the influences of ancient Egypt on the ancient Roman and Greek civilizations, the use of scents spread throughout the ancient world. Other ancient cultures, such as ancient Iranians and the ancient Chinese, also prized fragrances, though the Chinese used scent in the form of incense instead of perfumes to be worn.\nGreen Conference Pear\nHomer, famous author of The Odyessy, called pears \u201cgift of the gods\u201d. The green conference pear originated in Europe and is a greenish-brown skinned fruit with an elongated bottle. The artist has used oil paints and multiple layers of pigmented glazes to attain a jewel like surface, adding brightness and depth.\nThese ruby coloured pears are a member of the rose family (Rosaceae). They are one of the world\u2019s oldest cultivated and beloved fruits. Their bright crimson tones and distinctive form makes them wonderful muses for the artist. The artist has created a textured canvas with a subtle underpainting of ripples. She has used oil paints and multiple layers of pigmented glazes to attain a jewel like surface, bringing out the intense pigments against a Paris Blue and Iron Oxide Black background.\nOil paints on linen canvas\nWild fig trees first grew around the Mediterranean Sea, in Africa, West Asia, and South Asia beginning about a hundred million years ago, in the time of the dinosaurs. A symbol of abundance, fertility and sweetness, the fig tree was held sacred in many countries. The artist\u2019s impression of this dark purple fruit reflects multiple hues and distinct highlights that contrast with a Paris Blue and Iron Oxide Black background. The artist combines wet on wet oil paint, glazing and scumbling techniques to establish a light and shade illusion, while the rough grain of the linen canvas provides an organic texture to the artwork.\nCrate of Quinces\nPastels and charcoal on paper\nQuinces are thought to be \u2018golden apples\u2019 in Greek Mythology. They have been cultivated for thousands of years and ancient civilisations prized them for their taste and fragrance, and also for their poetic form. In this representation, the artist interprets each fruit as an individual element. She creates an underdrawing with charcoal and renders them alive with multiple layers of pastel colour pigments, paying special attention to highlight the bulbous protrusions. The partially uncoloured segment provides contrast and perspective to this colourful and animated artwork.\nThis painting of 18 year-old Azzurra, the artist\u2019s daughter, captures a wistful gaze. With the eye as a focal point in the artwork, the artist creates a connection to the subject and brings her to life. The rough grained linen canvas provides an organic texture that is then layered with oil paints and multiple layers of glazes to attain brightness and depth.",

        "raw_content": "U.S. Is Setting Ground For Military Intervention In Venezuela | The Vineyard of the Saker\nThe Venezuelan government seems to be openly preparing to face a US military invasion.\nOn February 10, the country\u2019s military kicked off large-scale military drills, which will run until February 15. According to President Nicolas Maduro, the drills are set to become the biggest ones the country has held in its 200-year history.\nOn the same day, multiple air defense systems, including Pechora-2M launchers, were spotted maneuvering in the area of San Cristobal, near the border with Columbia, an expected member of the US-led coalition in the event of invasion in Venezuela.\nOn February 7, Israel\u2019s satellite company ImageSat International released a satellite image, allegedly showing that the Venezuelan military was releasing its S-300VN air defense system from mothballs in Captain Manuel Rios Airbase on February 4.\nSeparately, President Maduro announced the setting up of 50,000 \u201cpopular defence units\u201d and promised that the US will get a South American \u201cVietnam War\u201d if it decides to invade.\nThe military preparations came amid several important security developments. In January, authorities detained fugitive Colonel Oswaldo Garcia Palomo after he had crossed back into the country from Colombia. On February 7, he appeared on a video confessing to his ties with the CIA and Colombian officials to overthrow the Maduro government. According to Venezuelan Information Minister Jorge Rodriguez, Palomo was involved in an effort to rally soldiers to mutiny, close off the capital and overtake the presidential palace.\nOn February 5, authorities seized a shipment of US-made weapons, which was discovered at a storage yard of Arturo Michelena International Airport in the city of Valencia. The stash included at least 19 rifles and 118 magazines, high-caliber ammunition, as well as 90 radios and six mobile phones \u2013 and was likely sent from Miami, Florida on February 3.\nAt the same time, Washington is reportedly engaged in so-called direct contacts with representatives of the Venezuelan military and government to convince them to support the coup and help to bring US-proclaimed Interim President Juan Guaido into power. These efforts achieved at least a partial success.\nOn February 2, Air Force General Yanez, reportedly defected to the opposition\u2019s side,. He called for others to follow him in supporting \u201cthe right side.\u201d On February 9,\nPosted in: Ground Setting\nPrevious Entry:Steeds meer ophef over \u2018klimaat-onzin-wetenschap\u2019\u2026\nNext Entry:Offener Brief von Nicol\u00e1s Maduro, Pr\u00e4sident der Bolivarischen Republik von Venezula | KenFM.de",

        "raw_content": "Posts tagged with \"car bans in europe\":\nOslo plans to make its city center free from cars in four years\nNorway currently boasts three World Rally Championship drivers (second only to France), all of considerable pedigree, yet its capital city of Oslo is planning to remove cars for good. Along with the proposal to ban cars is the plan to build 37 miles worth of bike lanes by 2019 and a new system for handicap bus services and delivery vehicles. In a bid to reduce pollution, Reuters reported, politicians in Oslo said they want to be the first European capital to implement a comprehensive permanent ban on cars. With a population just under 650,000, Oslo has around 350,000 cars with most owners living outside the center but inside the city's boundaries. Emulating Paris' one day-a-year car ban, Oslo is bucking a trend many fellow European cities are following. Currently Brussels is trialling an eight month traffic circulation program involving the pedestrianization of its boulevards meanwhile the old cities of both Split and Dubrovnik in Croatia are completely car free. Shop owners in Oslo, though, fear the plans will hurt business, though it is worthwhile noting that the city is not banning all vehicles, so delivery trucks and the like will be allowed. Lan Marie Nguyen Berg, lead negotiator for the Green Party in Oslo has said \"We want to make it better for pedestrians, cyclists. It will be better for shops and everyone.\" The plan also outlines the need for significant investment in infrastructure, most notably in public transportation that will have to support the growing number of users. Trials will be run after authorities investigate precedents in other european cities where plans have so far been a success. Aside from a marked reduction in pollution, the change will also make the city a much more appealing place for pedestrians and cyclists, something which the authorities are not alone in trying. According to Gemini, researchers from Scandinavian group SINTEF claim that much needs to be done about Norway's noise problem which is responsible for 150 deaths a year.\nThe roster of cities across the world going car-free is growing, joining Paris, Stockholm and Dublin\nThe concept of car-free city centers is fast spreading throughout Europe as increasingly gridlocked thoroughfares render the private car intolerable. Brussels, Belgium, has announced the development of pedestrian boulevards in its city center\u2014with a ban on cars effective from June 29, 2015\u2014where the city will stage recreational and cultural activities throughout the summer. A new traffic circulation plan will be test-driven, literally, for an 8-month trial period, during which the city will submit a request for an urban planning redevelopment permit. In the meantime, expect the development of eight distinct temporary spaces to enhance the appeal of a car-free city\u2014from a welcome space with picnic tables, a dedicated area for rollerskaters and bikers, a stage at the Place de la Bourse, and a game area for kids at the intersection of March\u00e9 aux Poulets street. Stockholm, Sweden, well-reputed for having Europe\u2019s highest share of clean vehicles, will host a one-day car ban on September 19 to galvanize citizens to envision life in the city without four wheels. Automobiles will be barred from the streets of Gamla Stan, the partially pedestrian \u201cold city\u201d of Stockholm, to the perpetually thronged Sergel\u2019s Square, as well as roads around the central station and some of the city\u2019s surrounding bridges. The ban is the Stockholm's contribution to European Mobility Week, a project by the European Commission that seeks to promote sustainable transportation. Over 200 cities will participate this year, touting various green initiatives. For instance, Ridderkerk, in the Netherlands, will hold Groene Voetstappen from September 14\u201318, during which children will be expected to walk and cycle to school. Meanwhile, Mosfellsb\u00e6r, Iceland, will start a widespread distribution of bike maps, create new bike trails near Mount Esja and Reykjavik city, and launch a pilot project offering tourist bus services between the main attractions of the municipality. Appetite to reappropriate the roads has spread even to Mumbai, where car-free Sundays on a scenic, oceanside road are a much-anticipated affair on roads that are ordinarily lethal to cyclists and pedestrians, some of them lacking sidewalks and choked with vendors or parked cars. Given the proliferation of cities subscribing to car-free ideals\u2014even those lacking public transportation networks sufficient to replace the private car\u2014New York City\u2019s passivity on this front becomes even more stark. On June 18, Mayor de Blasio announced a ban on cars at Central Park north of 72nd street and the West Drive of Prospect Park starting June 29 and July 6 respectively, but these vehicle scale-backs are minor in comparison, especially for one of the most pedestrian-friendly cities in the USA.

Have we ever faced a more urgent time to ask the right questions?\u201d ~ Aviva Rahmani\nThe Arts & Healing Network is delighted to present one of the 2009 AHN Awards to Aviva Rahmani. For over forty years, Aviva has been creating eco-art installations and remediation earthworks that have had concrete results, such as the restoration of a dump site to a flourishing wetland system in her Ghost Nets project, and catalyzing a USDA expenditure of $500,000 to restore 26 acres of critical wetlands habitat in her Why Blue Rocks? project. In her current project, Gulf to Gulf, Aviva is observing the impact of global warming on the Gulf of Maine and the Gulf of Mexico with a focus on New Orleans, and the end product will include several annual public performances.\nThe Arts & Healing Network admires the way Aviva weaves art and science together to inspire significant positive change. We also applaud her for being such a good, generous communicator by offering her podcast series on environmental art called Virtual Concerts. We look forward to her forthcoming publication, What the World Needs is a Good Housekeeper: An Ecological Art Field Guide, a primer on creating site-specific environmental art.\nTo learn more about Aviva\u2019s work, please visit her website.\nBelow is an interview by Arts & Healing Network Director, Mary Daniel Hobson with Aviva Rahmani from August 2009:\nAviva: Art, such as nature or spiritual experience, has the capacity to heal by taking us out of the limits of our selves. \"The Impact of Culture on Creativity\" (download a PDF copy here) is a study prepared for the European Commission in June 2009 and it concluded that the arts benefit every sector of society, including economic progress, by opening the mind to new possibilities.\nAs an ecological artist, I am acutely aware that there are practical implications for environmental degradation and restoration. In conversations with Ed Maibach, an author of the recent Yale/George Mason University study on public attitudes towards global warming, it was clear that art, combined with hard data, can dramatically impact thinking. The collaborative partnerships that often arise between scientists and ecological artists, for example, can result in innovative environmental insight as well as new models for aesthetic expression.\nLast year, shortly after the election, I wrote to President Obama:\nThank you for reviving hope in the world. I am writing to ask you to include the power of art to address environmental and economic problems in that hope. Globally, where art goes, prosperity follows. Since 1989, funding for individual artists has atrophied in this country. Meanwhile, a growing genre of \"Ecological Artists\" has emerged, working internationally, side by side with scientists, engineers, city planners, community activists and others to find novel solutions to environmental degradation and threat. Art has the capacity to ask questions, provoke the imagination and present new paradigms for thought and meaning. Have we ever faced a more urgent time to ask the right questions? Contemporary art in the USA has thrived despite the efforts of the conservative movement towards silencing us.\nThe confluence of economic shifts, energy transitions and climate warming represent an opportunity for your administration to tap into the promise art can bring to the table, at a time when the world needs ALL players, as never before. I urge you to be open to these ideas, investigate them on sites that host this work, such as the Arts & Healing Network and the GreenMuseum and consider the enormous value art can bring to the table now.\nSince writing that letter, I have committed to completing a dissertation topic, Trigger Point Theory as Aesthetic Activism, a Z-Node Program of the Institute for Cultural Studies, Zurich University of the Arts with the University of Plymouth, United Kingdom. My research will systematically explore how viable the theories are that I have developed, while applying the skills of art to ecological disruption for large system restoration and healing, based in my previous ecological artwork.\nAviva: My present work, Gulf to Gulf, compares the impact of global warming from the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of Maine by looking at gulf regions internationally. It has brought me to seriously consider the possibility that ocean dead zone could dramatically expand in our lifetime. This, along with the prospect of losing fresh water (even as human populations and sources of pollution continue to explode) and sea water intrusion overcoming coastal zones, make a preoccupation with water key to my thinking now. Gulf to Gulf is premised on the idea that all disciplines and means need to be drawn into the dialogue about how we will survive our present. Art is the fulcrum for the understanding, innovation and communications that will meet that need.\nAviva: Location, location, location\u2026affiliate yourself with other groups. Some artists, such as Beverly Naidus, who recently wrote Arts for Change, have affiliated with activist groups. I have chosen to work primarily with scientists. It is important find your community and to challenge the tendency of artists, especially visual artists, to isolate. I think it is very difficult to be effective as an isolated individual. I believe that change on the scale necessary today demands great openness from us all, especially to each other. The rest is homework: research, craftsmanship, being responsible in all our dealings with the world and our colleagues, and knowing what moves you at the heart of your vision.\nAviva: People often tell artists that the joy of the work is its own reward, but after a number of years that wears thin and certainly doesn\u2019t pay the bills. Teaching jobs are scarce and ecological art is a hard one to sell to the public, but that\u2019s not a reason to be a martyr. When I was in school, my good friend Alison Knowles advised me to master graphics so that I\u2019d always have a job. That was good advice and has also served me as a fine artist. Younger artists are more willing than my generation was to learn how to operate their practice as a business. Jackie Battenfield recently did a great book, The Artist\u2019s Guide, that I think is very useful. I think attitudes and economic opportunities will rapidly change in the next few years as people increasingly see the value of engaging artists in solving environmental problems. Europe is already way ahead of the Untied States in recognizing that value. Meanwhile, it\u2019s a good idea to take care of your inventory of artifacts for when you get famous and ready to be rich.\nAviva: Martin Buber's I and Thou, because all art is a spiritual exercise in intimacy and courage.\nAviva: I think it\u2019s wonderful that there are so many of us healing artists, and that there are sites and people, such as those at the Arts and Healing Network that support and promote these ideas. It is both humbling and inspiring to be included.",

I completed Leaves of Grass: First and \"Death-Bed\" Editions by Walt Whitman, this one took me over a year to read because I'm not good with poetry and I've forsworn them in the future as a result. I then finished Light Bearers: A History of the Seventh-day Adventist Church by Richard W. Schwarz & Floyd Greenleaf. And yesterday I finished a re-read the sixth book of the Op-Center series, State of Siege by Jeff Rovin.\nI finished The Library of Mount Char recently which I liked quite a bit and have now moved on to Foundryside by Robert Jackson Bennett. I still need to go back and read City of Miracles but figured I'd take a break from that world since this book sounded intriguing.\nLocation:Northish\nOn 10/15/2018 at 9:33 PM, Iskaral Pust said:\nI just finished Blood of Elves by Andrzej Sapkowski, #1 of The Witcher series. I found it kind of dull to be honest. There's a lot of set-up for an epic scope, but very little happens in the opening volume. The world-building is generic D&D, but thankfully it does not lean too heavily on D&D character attributes to define the POV roles -- I was very worried when the opening chapter mentioned a gathering of halflings, elves, dwarves, gnomes and men. But the characterization is pretty sophmoric, e.g. all enchantresses are feisty, independent, beautiful, curvaceous in tight-fitting dresses with low necklines, and have long, beautiful hair that would make Keri Russell envious; and they're all in love with the same Gary Stu hero, and are all jealous of each each other. It's one of several echoes of WoT. The plot is based on prophecies, Chosen Ones, lost prince(ss) in waiting, approaching end of times, etc.\nI can see why it was good material for a fantasy video game, but not why the series was so successful.\nLate to the party, I see, but as you may learn in the book-spesific thread, you actually need the short stories (or, rather, a couple of the short stories) to make sense of book 1. To my detriment, I hadn't read the Sword of Destiny-collection before Blood of Elves, and I couldn't make real sense of the book.\nThen for some reason, I read Sword of Destiny, and was left wondering why on earth Blood of Elves was sold as book 1.\nNote, there is one important short story in The Witcher, and an even more important one in Sword of Destiny.\nso totally yay\nOn 10/22/2018 at 7:50 PM, Astromech said:\nI finished Roger Crowley's excellent narrative history Empires of the Sea: The Siege of Malta, the Battle of Lepanto, and the Contest for the Center of the World\ufeff.

The cases range across three centuries of American history, including such landmarks as Marbury v. Madison (1803), which established the principle of judicial review; Scott v. Sandford (1857), which inflamed the slavery argument in the United States and led to the Civil War; Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), which memorialized the concept of separate but equal; and Brown v. Board of Education (1954), which overturned Plessy. Dealing with issues of particular concern to students, such as voting, school prayer, search and seizure, and affirmative action, and broad democratic concepts such as separation of powers, federalism, and separation of church and state, the book covers all the major cases specified in the national and state civics and American history standards. For each case, there is an introductory essay providing historical background and legal commentary as well as excerpts from the decision(s); related documents such as briefs or evidence, with headnotes and/or marginal commentary, some possibly in facsimile; and features or sidebars on principal players in the decisions, whether attorneys, plaintiffs, defendants, or justices. An introductory essay defines the criteria for selecting the cases and setting them in the context of American history and government, and a concluding essay suggests the role that the Court will play in the future.\nThe Pursuit of Justice: Supreme Court Decisions that Shaped America by - download link\nRelated PDF EPUB FB2 books to The Pursuit of Justice: Supreme Court Decisions that Shaped America by -\nThe Supreme Court\u2032s Federalism: Real or Imagined?

However, while this may seem like a good outcome, the Commission is still working towards a target of almost zero road deaths by 2050.\nThe advent of new technology has often been credited with helping the most towards these results. The European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) has suggested that more systems could be included in type approval clauses in order to further boost the safety of vehicles on the continent.\nHowever, with so many technological gains, Autovista Group wants to know which safety system will contribute most in the coming years. Are current technologies such as active braking and lane departure warnings going to continue leading the safety drive, or would alcohol locking interfaces and blind spot cameras improve more?",

Also, don\u2019t ever let the pot sit in water. Always make sure it drains right through when watering. If they start to become leggy, that means they aren\u2019t getting enough sunlight.

        "raw_content": "goyard shopping bag\ncool shopping bags\nEverybody prefers to do his or her bit to help defend the environment, consequently choosing one of the innumerable reusable shopping handbags that are disposable on offer at the moment seems like a no-brainer. So here are several tips to help you decide on the proper shopping hand bag:\nThere are reusable shopping handbags in all kinds of shapes, styles and sizes. We recommend the models that have a flat base and may stand up independently, as far as they are easy to pack up and place into the car. Alternatively, several manufacturers vend handbags which have the ability to fold up quite tiny so you can store them in your bag or pocket. Also, it would be better for you to look at the handle length as you are deciding on a hand bag. While some are long so you will have an opportunity to carry it over a shoulder, others have short handles and may be carried like a typical grocery bag. Alternate features, such as insulation and inward pockets for your cell phone and/or pocketbook are also accessible.\nDecide on The Material.\nWhen your reusable purses are made of a firm textile, you will potentially have the use of them for a few years. It is advisable to pick a hand-knit bag, that is not only fashionable, but has the minimal ecologic influence as very few electricity is utilized in its production. Alternatively, canvas or cotton hand bags have more or less analogical ecologic influence as growing cotton plants, and such items are bioerodible and washable. You in addition may choose solid polypropylene bags as far as they don't break and may be easily washed with cold water. Notwithstanding this is a not organic material, it's reasonable investing in them so far as you will not possibly throw out in the near future.\nYou can use online search in Bing or Google or Yahoo to find harrods shopping bag and anything else you require.

        "title": "Roundup: Flu Season Off to a Busy Start, CDC Urges Vaccinations",
        "raw_content": "Roundup: Flu Season Off to a Busy Start, CDC Urges Vaccinations\nEarly signs point to a rough 2017-2018 flu season, with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reporting twice as many cases of influenza so far, compared to last season.\nFlu seasons normally peak in February and can last through May. The flu is already widespread in four states, including Georgia, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Massachusetts, the CDC says. About 90 percent of U.S. states report local, regional or widespread flu activity. The CDC \u2014 and primary care physicians \u2014 say the best protection against influenza is to get your annual flu shot.\nSinus and ear infections are examples of moderate complications from flu, while pneumonia is a serious flu complication that can result from either an influenza virus infection alone or from co-infection with the flu virus and bacteria, the CDC says.\nThe effectiveness of this year\u2019s flu vaccine has come into question in some media reports. On average, past flu vaccines have been about 42 percent effective, but that number changes with every season. The flu vaccine is still considered vital protection, especially for the most vulnerable individuals.\nPeople at high risk for complications from the flu include:\nChildren younger than 5 years old, but especially children younger than 2 years old.\nPeople of any age who have certain medical conditions, such as asthma, diabetes, and heart disease.\nThe CDC also urges people to take preventive actions to protect themselves and loved ones from the flu, such as:\nLow-Dose Contraceptives Can Also Increase Breast Cancer Risk\nDespite the development of pills, IUDs (intrauterine devices) and implants with lower amounts of hormones, women who take hormone-based contraceptives may still be at a slightly increased risk of getting breast cancer, according to a new research study published in this week\u2019s New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).\nIn one of the largest studies to-date of hormone-based contraception, Danish researchers followed 1.8 million women, ages 15 to 49, over 11 years to conclude that taking hormonal contraception \u2013 even one of the low-dose alternatives \u2013 is associated with an approximate 20 percent increased chance of developing breast cancer, compared to women who opt for non-hormonal birth control methods.\nDespite the slightly elevated risk, the researchers note that the overall risk of getting breast cancer by taking hormonal contraception was still very small, especially for women who take it in their teens, 20s and 30s. Most of the cases of breast cancer that developed were in women who took the hormonal contraception in their 40s, notes epidemiologist David Hunter, of the University of Oxford, and author of an editorial that accompanied the study published in NEJM.\nThe study, which was funded with a grant from Novo Nordisk Foundation, included review of oral contraceptives, IUDs, implants, patches and vaginal ring products that contain either estrogen and progestin, or a combination of the two hormones. Of the 140 million women worldwide who use hormonal contraception, about 13 percent of them are between the ages of 15 and 49 years, the study noted.\nThe study also found that even after stopping using hormonal contraception, the slightly elevated risk of breast cancer continued for women who had taken it for five or more years.\nIn weighing the pros and cons of oral contraception in particular, health officials note that oral contraceptives can help prevent certain types of cancer. Studies have shown that women who take oral contraceptives can reduce their risk of ovarian, endometrial and now perhaps colorectal cancer, as some recent research suggests.\nLower Breast Cancer Risk With Lifestyle Choices\nImportance of Genetic Link to Breast Cancer Increases\nAggressive Weight Loss Can Reverse Diabetes, Study Reports\nType 2 diabetes is a serious chronic condition that affects 422 million people worldwide and it is becoming more widespread in the United States as the obestiy epidemic shows few signs of slowing.\nDoctors have normally treated diabetes with medications that help maintain safe blood sugar levels. But more physicians are also strongly urging diabetes patients to adopt lifestyle changes, primarily healthier eating habits and regular exercise, to help get off medications and more effectively control blood glucose levels.\nAccording to a new study published in the Lancet, researchers in the United Kingdom found that people with diabetes went into remission\u2014just by losing weight. Almost half of those studied were diabetics who undertook a six-month diet plan. They lost an average of 30 pounds and went into remission \u2014 meaning they no longer had diabetes. None of the participants took medications during the six months to control their disease, instead relying on weight loss alone.\n\u201cRemission of type 2 diabetes is a practical target for primary care,\u201d researchers concluded.\nDiabetes Alert Day: Find Out Now If You\u2019re at Risk\nTags: Baptist Health Primary Care, diabetes control, flu, infectious disease",

        "raw_content": "Home / World / CUBA \u2013 Historic visit\nCUBA \u2013 Historic visit\nHAVANA \u2013\u2013 America\u2019s President Barack Obama pushed Cuba to improve its record on human rights and sparred with President Raul Castro during a historic visit to the Communist-ruled island today, while Castro hit back by decrying American \u201cdouble standards\u201d.\nHuman rights remained an impediment to strengthening ties with Cuba despite the rapprochement reached by the two leaders in December 2014, Obama said, adding a \u201cfull flowering\u201d of the relationship could happen only with progress on the issue.\nAmerica\u2019s President Barack Obama and Cuba\u2019s President Raul Castro holding their first meeting on the second day of Obama\u2019s visit to Cuba, in Havana today.\n\u201cIn the absence of that, I think it will continue to be a very powerful irritant,\u201d Obama said at a sometimes tense joint news conference that was broadcast live on Cuban state television. Castro appeared at times uncomfortable and showed flashes of anger as he made the rare step of taking questions from journalists.\nObama, the first sitting American president to visit Cuba in nearly 90 years, is under pressure from critics at home to push Castro\u2019s government to allow political dissent and to further open its Soviet-style economy. Some opponents of the visit say he has already given away too much as he improves ties, with too little from Cuba in return.\nAt today\u2019s news conference, which followed talks between the two leaders, Castro responded sharply to the pressure over his record on rights, saying the United States\u2019 stance reflected a double standard as a country that also violated human rights.\nHe said no country met all international rights agreements, and that Cuba was strong on many areas such as health, access to education and women\u2019s equality.\n\u201cLet\u2019s work so that everybody respects all the human rights,\u201d he said. Cuba frequently criticizes the United States on subjects such as racism, violence and the prison the United States maintains at its naval base at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.\nAsked by a journalist about Cuba\u2019s detention of political dissidents, Castro demanded to see a list of such detainees, implying that Cuba held none.\n\u201cWhat political prisoners? Give me a name, or the names, so that when this meeting is over they can give me a list with the prisoners. And if there are these political prisoners they will be free before nightfall,\u201d he said, glaring at the reporter.\nHe offered Cuba\u2019s recipe for better relations \u2013\u2013 saying the two countries could achieve much better ties if the United States lifted its 54-year-old trade embargo on the island and handed back the Guantanamo base to Cuba.\nFor decades, Obama\u2019s trip would have been unthinkable. It became possible after secret talks led to a 2014 agreement to normalize relations between the two Cold War-era foes.\nThe White House had pushed for a joint press conference between Obama and Castro for some time, in line with American practice on other foreign trips, but the Castro government resisted. Today, whether the two leaders would take questions at all was not clear up until they appeared before journalists.\nWhen the question period began, Obama\u2019s ease with the format contrasted with Castro\u2019s uncomfortable manner. Tension could be felt in the room as Castro declined to call on a slew of Cuban journalists who wanted to take advantage of the rare chance to ask him questions.\nObama said his counterpart had only agreed to answer one question, but he playfully encouraged him to address a second; Castro seemed reluctant as he obliged.\nObama began his first full day in Havana in the symbolic heart of Cuba\u2019s Communist system, starting in Revolution Square, where for decades Raul Castro\u2019s brother, Fidel Castro, led million-strong rallies against the evils of American \u201cimperialism\u201d.\nObama laid a wreath at the memorial to independence hero Jose Marti, overlooked by a huge metal portrait of legendary rebel fighter Ernesto \u201cChe\u201d Guevara.\n\u201cIt is a great honour to pay tribute to Jose Marti, who gave his life for independence of his homeland. His passion for liberty, freedom, and self-determination lives on in the Cuban people today,\u201d Obama wrote in a guest book there.\nMarti was a 19th century poet and writer whose activism helped spur Cuba\u2019s freedom from Spain and whose legacy was later adopted by Fidel Castro\u2019s revolutionaries as a symbol of anti-imperialism.\nObama has urged Congress to rescind the economic embargo but has been rejected by the Republican leadership. He now has both Democratic and Republican elected officials with him on his Cuba trip and hopes Congress may act after the November 8 presidential election.\nThwarted so far on the embargo, Obama has instead used his executive authority to take a series of steps loosening restrictions on trade and travel with the Caribbean island.\nAhead of his meeting with Castro, Obama announced a deal that Google has reached with the island.\n\u201cOne of the things that we\u2019ll be announcing here is that Google has a deal to start setting up more Wi-Fi and broadband access on the island,\u201d Obama told ABC News in an interview that aired today. Google said later it was exploring the possibilities for increasing and improving Internet access in Cuba, but said its efforts were in the \u201cearly stages\u201d.\nObama and Castro met for half an hour during a regional summit in Panama last April and they also had a brief encounter at Nelson Mandela\u2019s funeral in 2013 and at longer meeting at the UN General Assembly last September.\nBesides meeting Castro, Obama also plans to visit a state-owned micro brewery and attend a state dinner today. Tomorrow, he will deliver a speech on live Cuban television and attend an exhibition game between Major League Baseball\u2019s Tampa Bay Rays and Cuba\u2019s national team.\n\u2190 TRINIDAD \u2013 Teen killed\nGUYANA \u2013 Former robbery accused shot to death \u2192\nUSA\tLOUISIANA \u2013 Interviewee stops robbery\nWorld\tWORLD \u2013 Obama lands in Cuba",

        "title": "Story of a Barefoot Runner: 2011 Western States 100 Endurance Run",
        "raw_content": "What an experience!!! What else can I say?\nI have been a runner for the past 5 years. In those years I have never volunteered at a race. So, for my first volunteer experience I thought I'd help out at a little known race - the Western States 100-mile Endurance Run. I spent the day at the Forest Hill Aid Station at mile-62 of the Run.\nMy day actually began earlier in the morning at the Run 4 Independence in Elk Grove, CA. I had trained several staff and parents from the school I work at to run their first 10K. So, the first part of my day began with me cheering on my runners. I also bumped into fellow barefoot runner, Running Romeo, and his son who were racing in the 5K. Romeo (aka Rob), running barefoot, and his son, in Vibrams, had an exciting sprint to the finish with Rob edging out his son at the line. Congratulations to Janice, Jeannie, Jessica and Kathy for completing their first 10K! Additional note, Jeannie ran the race in water shoes.\nRunning Romeo & Son at Run 4 Independence\nMy 10K Runners and I at Run 4 Independence\nAfter the 10K race was done and congratulations and water were passed around. I headed up the hill toward the little town of Forest Hill. I made a quick call to my wife to check the latest information coming from the race. The leaders were about a third of the way along the course. \"Amazing,\" I thought.\nWhen I arrived at Forest Hill, the town was buzzing with spectators, volunteers, and crews all over the tiny town. Cars were lined up and down the street. I walked up to the volunteer booth and checked in and got my \"Race Official\" T-shirt.\nMy job - \"Greeter\". Now, when I first found out this is what I was going to be doing, I thought, \"Oh great, I'm going to be directing spectators and answering questions all day.\" My wife joked (in a very jovial, sarcastic voice), \"Did you stand around all day saying to the runners, 'Hi, my name is Terry. How are you today?'\"\nMy actual experience that day was as far from those scenarios as you could get. I got to run alongside runners as they arrived at mile-62 and guide them through the aid station. I made sure they made it to the weigh-in station with the doctors, took their bottles and packs and got them filled with whatever they needed, made sure they had an opportunity to eat, guided them to their crew or dropbag and made sure they got checked-out of the aid station.\nI was standing by the entrance to the aid station when the front-runners, including winner WS100 Killian Jornet, came racing through the aid station about 2:30 in the afternoon. I was fortunate enough to run fellow barefoot/minimalist runner \"Last Place Jason\" Robillard through the station and hang out with his crew for a short time. I was even standing by when THE MAN, Gordy Ainsley, passed through the aid station that night (unfortunately Gordy dropped there at Foresthill).\nSwitching out shoes and clearing blisters\nJason and his pacer leaving Forest Hill\nWhen Jason was coming through the aid station, he asked about the 24-hour cut off. I had to break the news to him that he was 45 minutes behind the cutoff. However, he was safely inside the 30-hour cutoff time. Jason took some time with his crew to change out his shoes and lance and clear a few blisters. Then, Jason and his pacer headed back out onto the course with hopes of clinching a silver Western States buckle.\nOne of the most amazing things I noticed that day was how strong so many of the runners appeared as they arrived at the aid station. I mean, really now, you just ran 62 miles over snow, through canyons and over mountains and you look like that? Many of the runners were in high-spirits. They were smiling and waving at the crowds. They were grateful and courteous to the many volunteers at the station. Several runners entered the station holding up digital cameras to record video of the scene at Forest Hill. One video, made by James Elson from London, England shows the approach to the Forest Hill aid station (you can see me at about 50 seconds on the right side of the screen escort him into the station). Others had their children running alongside as they approached the station. It was quite an eventful day.\nI am truly impressed by the dedication and organization of the aid-station captain Lon Monroe. That man knows how to run a ship. Watching Lon work was amazing. Everything had a clear plan. Though Lon had extremely high expectations for everyone and everything at the aid station, he ran the crew with humility and a sense of humor. At our pre-opening meeting, Lon would sometimes answer a question with a humorous comment as if he had no idea what we were all doing there. You could often find him checking on individual runners (he seemed to know many of them) to see how they were doing.\nMost of the runners I saw were strong through mile-62, a few were badly beaten. I saw one runner who had so many blisters on his feet they ended up removing the skin on the bottom and replacing it with tape, powdered his feet, put on dry socks and shoes and sent him on his way - AMAZING!\nAt about 30 minutes to closing, an official blew an airhorn 3 times. Minutes later a crowd of bobbing headlamps could be seen charging up the hill toward us. This happened two more times at 20 minutes and 10 minutes - each time a small crowd rushing toward the aid station to beat the cutoff. The last runner I escorted through the aid station was a Swede who wanted to call it quits. He entered the station with less than 5 minutes to the cutoff. Many of us volunteers encouraged him to pick up a pacer and get out of the aid station gate (he had less than 2 minutes before the last cutoff). He managed to continue onto the next aid station 3+ miles down the trail before ultimately dropping.\nAfter the final horn, the volunteers broke down the aid station and packed away all of the gear. It was pretty quick work - about 45 minutes or so. I headed down the road to Placer High School to see what was going on at the finish line. Cars lined the streets surrounding the school. The football field was covered with tents. I found a parking spot and wandered over to the field. When I asked an official at the runner info tent, I was surprised and delighted to hear that Jason had picked up about an hour of time and was likely to finish under the 24 hour cutoff. With that I called it a day and hopped in my truck for the long drive home.\nThe Finish Line for the Western States 100\nView from above the stadium\nAs it turned out, barefoot/minimalist runner, Jason Robillard did manage to pick up just over an hour of time and finished at 23:39 to receive the coveted Silver Western States buckle! Congratulations, \"Last Place Jason\". It was truly a privilege to be present at such an awesome race - what an amazing experience!\nCoy Martinez July 5, 2011 at 9:39 AM\nI can't imagine a 50 mile race! What a massive accomplishment! I've volunteered once and love it.\nTerry Orsi July 5, 2011 at 9:08 PM\nIt is truly amazing to watch these runners. Volunteering was a blast. You get to see so much more and interact with the runners.\nI've got my sights on a 50K this August. Next spring, I'm hoping to do a 50 miler, but I think that's my limit.",

        "raw_content": "Warp 0: Why warp drive technologies might never happen\nThe connection between one of White\u2019s collaborators and the Institute for Advanced Study at Austin is really unfortunate. Kind of casts a pall over the whole operation, at least in so far as NASA is involved. Makes me think some sort of investigation is in order. (The Austin people can spend private money to their hearts\u2019 content, but NASA is putting public money and its reputation on the line.)\nSomebody once explained to me why FTL communication would directly cause a time paradox. The explanation was the kind that totally make sense, but the next day you\u2019re scratching your head saying, \u201chow did it go again?\u201d I wish I could reproduce it.\nBut the bottom line is that, while in the movies paradox causes awesome, in the real world it just doesn\u2019t happen - another pretty strong argument those warp drives can never happen.\nHypnosifl 2013-07-24 00:29:12 UTC #4\nThe reason has to do with the relativity of simultaneity which says that observers in different reference frames define simultaneity differently, and a side consequence of this is that if you could have an FTL signal, then if you identify the event \u201csignal being sent\u201d and \u201csignal being received\u201d, then although in some frames the signal will be received after it was sent as expected, in other frames these events will be simultaneous or happen in reversed order, meaning the signal went \u201cback in time\u201d in this frame (the same issue doesn\u2019t happen with signals moving at the speed of light or slower\u2013in that case all frames agree on their order). And relativity says that the laws of physics have to work exactly the same in all frames, so if it\u2019s possible in some frames for an FTL signal to be received before it\u2019s sent, this must be possible in all frames.\nThen if you take into account exactly how simultaneity works in each frame, it\u2019s possible to come up with a situation where you have two observers moving apart slower than light, and A sends a signal to B that moves FTL but forwards in time in A\u2019s frame, but backwards in time in B\u2019s frame; then when B gets the signal B can send a reply that moves FTL but forwards in time in B\u2019s frame, but backwards in time in A\u2019s; and the net result is that A receives B\u2019s reply before A sent the original signal, so that\u2019s a violation of causality in all frames. This setup is sometimes called the tachyonic antitelephone, and for anyone who\u2019s studied a bit of special relativity and is familiar with lines of simultaneity in spacetime diagrams, there\u2019s a good set of diagrams explaining it here.\nAlso, here is a paper which verifies that the theoretical \u201cwarp drive\u201d solution in general relativity could indeed be used for backwards time travel. This is a pretty good reason to be skeptical, I think\u2013although I\u2019d like a time machine as much as the next guy, from what I\u2019ve read physicists have a bunch of theoretical results which hint that when quantum physics is combined with general relativity to produce a theory of \u201cquantum gravity\u201d, it will probably end up ruling out all backwards time travel solutions, an idea known as the chronology protection conjecture.\nThat\u2019s it. That\u2019s exactly the way I remember it, and I still find it utterly convincing while at the same time baffling.",

        "raw_content": "Trump v. Hawaii: Constitutional, Moral, and Ethical Dimensions\nOn Wednesday, April 25, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the Trump v. Hawaii case, in which the State of Hawaii is leading a challenge to an executive order preventing most people from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen, as well as certain visitors from North Korea and Venezuela from entering the United States. The Trump administration has argued that there are legitimate national security grounds for these restrictions, while critics argue that such widespread restrictions are religiously discriminatory (an assumption based largely on Trump\u2019s own campaign calls for a Muslim ban). Yet, while several amicus briefs in opposition have been filed by religious groups from the Jewish, Muslim, and Christian traditions (both Catholic and Protestant), other religiously affiliated groups have filed with no position on the order.\nThis week the Berkley Forum asks: To what extent are questions of religious liberty at the heart of this particular case? What are the national security concerns at play, and do they overshadow the moral and political issues of what lower courts have construed as an attempted ban on Muslims by proxy of country of origin (based on President Trump\u2019s own campaign rhetoric)? How are religious liberty groups positioning themselves on this issue (for example, in filed amicus briefs or by not filing at all), and why?\nIs Trump v. Hawaii About Religious Liberty?

        "raw_content": "How to boost Nexus 6 performance\u2026 and why you can\u2019t do it just yet\nGoogle\u2019s recently released and hard-to-find Nexus 6 is likely the company\u2019s best Nexus smartphone to date, but it can of course still be improved. In fact, when looking at storage performance, AnandTech discovered that because the Nexus 6 comes with full data encryption, its read and write memory performance has taken a significant hit.\nFROM EARLIER: Why the government keeps telling you iPhone encryption will eventually kill a child\n\u201c[One factor affecting the results of the benchmarks on the Nexus 6 specifically is Android Lollipop\u2019s Full Disk Encryption (FDE). Android has actually had this ability since Android 3.0 Honeycomb, but Lollipop is the first time it\u2019s being enabled by default on new devices,\u201d the publication wrote. \u201cWhen FDE is enabled, all writes to disk have the information encrypted before it\u2019s committed, and all reads have the information decrypted before they\u2019re returned to the process. The key to decrypt is protected by the lock screen password, which means that the data should be safe from anyone who takes possession of your device. However, unlike SSDs, which often have native encryption, eMMC has no such standard. In addition, most SoCs don\u2019t have the type of fixed-function blocks necessary to enable FDE with little to no performance penalty.\u201d\nAnandTech has been able to test a Nexus 6 without encryption, proving the device is significantly faster at both reading and writing data.\nOne way of removing this performance penalty is to simply disable encryption on the Nexus 6, especially for those users who don\u2019t really need encryption and/or don\u2019t PIN-protect their devices. Without locking the device, the encryption feature won\u2019t actually protect any data, but users still get the same lower read/write speeds, as long as FDE is on.\nHowever, as Droid-Life points out, the Nexus 6 and Nexus 9 come with FDE enabled by default, and users can\u2019t turn it off for the time being. It\u2019s not clear at this time whether Google will offer such an option to Nexus 6 users in the future.\nAnandTech\u2018s full findings on the matter are available at the source link, and an image showing these memory performance differences follows below.",

        "raw_content": "When Hussein Mansour opens his mouth about growing up in Egypt, Jew hatred, and Israel, I wish my father was still alive.\nI met Hussein a decade after my dad died. My father would have loved Hussein as much as I do. I imagine the two of them laughing over silly Egyptian jokes in Arabic. And my dad, Moussa Wahba, would feel as validated as I do.\nBoth Hussein and my father were forced out of their native land for being what they were. My father a Jew had to go, Hussein a Zionist, had to go. There is no demarcation between Jew and Zionist in Islam.\nBorn and raised two generations after Nasser began expelling Egypt\u2019s Jews in 1956, Hussein was told that the Jews \u201cjust left\u201d somehow. My family was among the 80,000 Egyptian Jews expelled as \u201cforeigners\u201d with just one suitcase of clothing and a kick.\nWhen Hussein speaks about how he came to be a Zionist, the validation restores something in me. For too long now, I have had to explain, over and over again, what it was like to grow up stateless, with parents, family on both sides who had to flee Arab lands because they were Jews.\nMost Egyptians today have no idea that we Jews were once a vital part of Egypt.\nMy father never tired of reminding me (and perhaps himself), how our family were \u201crealEgyptians\u201d going back over two thousand years. He talked about how once there were so many of us living in a town, it was known locally as \u201cKfarWahba.\u201d\nHis pride at being Egyptian surprised me, how could he feel proud of a country that betrayed us so badly? I hurt when I felt his deep appreciation at recalling how respected his grandfather was by the Muslims, \u201ca big honor for a Jew.\u201d\nAccepting inequality is part of being a Jew under Islam even in the best of times. There are no more Jews to speak of in Egypt today, but any Egyptian Christian of which there are too many to expel, understands this less than second class status. To be seen as equally human under Islamic ideology is a moving experience.\nHussein\u2019s story is unusual to say the least. His courage, after he unintentionally unearthed the truth in a land of censorship, is epic. He could not stop, and he could not stay silent once he started learning the truth about Jews, Israel, Christianity, and the world.\nThe middle child in a Middle class mostly secular Muslim family, Hussein was eleven years old when he embarked on a religious path. He began praying several times a day, getting more and more devout. He found himself praying for the destruction of the Jews and Israel. By the time he was a teen he hated us with a passion, a budding Jihadiready to fight the good fight against the Zionists.\nObsessed with comic book Superheroes, Hussein channeled his hate in a wholly original way \u2013 He was going to be a superhero. He, Hussein, would \u201clearn everything about the Arch Enemy, the Jew,\u201d the ultimate evil in the universe, responsible for everything wrong with civilization.\nHe studied Hebrew, first on his own via the internet and then in university. He knocked on the door of the Israeli embassy in Cairo and got a hero\u2019s welcome (they don\u2019t get many visitors). They gave him books, a world opened.\nThreatening calls came to his home, He was arrested for a night, his father was arrested, he was told several times to stop visiting the embassy. He didn\u2019t take the arrests seriously enough, he refused to stop blogging his new ideas.\nHis consciousness expanded, his friends thought his new ideas were crazy, he kept learning. He studied Jewish history, and then Christianity. There were no Jews in Egypt, but he saw how Egyptian Christians (like Jews), were not the dirty, smelly, vile sub-human filth he was taught. He read about Israel. He wrote.\nInstead of becoming the Superhero he set out to be, he rejected Islam. He became a Zionist, an enemy of the state.\nHe was arrested and tortured for two months until he lost the capacity to see color, to care about anything except dying. Eventually he was helped out of the country, to flee for his life, into America, where I first heard him speak on a panel with other dissidents from the Middle East.\nWhen I first met him, I asked about criticizing Islamic ideology without being silenced as \u201cIslamophobic.\u201d He laughed, saying one cannot care about that. It was validating, because I am accused regularly, even when I am talking about my family\u2019s experience. Even when I tell the story of how my Iraqi mother, accompanying her father to Basra on business, seeing the Shia merchant wash his hands to cleanse himself, after doing business with the Jewish merchant, my grandfather. This story is \u201cIslamophobic.\u201d\nThe validation I experience and every Zionist feels with Hussein is a blessing. We need our story understood.\nI don\u2019t have to explain to Hussein how sick to their core it makes Islamists that although they got rid of us Jews in their countries all over the Middle East, Israel rose and keeps thriving as a Jewish country in their midst.\nWith Hussein I don\u2019t have to find ways to explain the legitimacy of Israel as a Jewish country, or how the Palestinians were and continue to be inhumanely groomed by Political Islamic ideology as a means to get rid of us after major aggressive wars to destroy the one Jewish country failed. I don\u2019t have to try to convince him that the \u201crefugee\u201d issue and \u201cpeaceful protests\u201d in Gaza that keep multiplying in numbers is a cruel sham. He knows.\nHe knows first-hand, as did my family, as do most Jews from Arab lands, as does anyone who refuses to live in ignorance of a reality we have to wake up to if we want Israel to survive. This connection with him means the world to me.\nWahba is a uniquely Egyptian name, shared by Jews, Muslims, Christians, but it is not a common name for a street. So, when Hussein shared a \u201cby the way, I grew up on Wahba St. in Cairo,\u201d I so wish I could share that with my dad!",

        "raw_content": "Coupons and Slaps\nI have written about the virtues of discrimination - that is, price discrimination - here, here and here.\nA friend of mine in California reminded me of this when he sent me an article bemoaning coupons. Everyone who has ever bought online has seen \"enter coupon code here\" on the payment page. The author argues that the very existence of that text and the coupons is a slap in the face to someone willing to pay full price today, and causes many to walk away. The author's conclusion? Kill coupons altogether, or give the same time-limited discount to all customers.\nWhile he has the symptom right, his prescription is wrong. Coupons are a crucial way of doing price discrimination. If not, why would every supermarket and drugstore chain in North America go to the expense of printing, distributing, managing and redeeming them?\nCutting coupons (or finding them online) takes significant effort for the buyer. For some people, that shampoo is worth $5, and the effort of hunting down coupons is not worth the $0.50 saved. For others, however, the it is worth $4.50, and they would buy it only at that price, but they are willing to put in the effort to find the coupons, save them and enter them.\nThe coupon allows the seller to find those for whom the shampoo is worth only $4.50 and capture them, without giving up on the $5 the full-price buyer is willing to pay.\nHowever, and this is important, the seller must not alert the $5 buyer that he could get $0.50 off at purchase time. If he does - and especially with digital coupons that appear to be a 2-minute Google search and click away - the full-price buyer is suddenly much less willing to spend the full price, and will go elsewhere to buy it (or not at all).\nCoupons, and the effort involved in finding, keeping and entering them, are an important way to capture an additional market segment, even in the digital world. But just as Loblaws doesn't have a big sign at each checkout, \"enter your 20% off coupons here!\", checkouts should accept them without putting them in the full-price customer's face.\nOne solution (quoted in the article) is a separate URL to trigger the coupon. Another is to use dynamic coupons; figure out who should get a discount based on their online price comparison behaviour. There are yet more. But whatever you do, do not give up on capturing the maximum value from each and every profitable segment of customer.\n\u2190 Build Something. Anything.

        "raw_content": "Types of Residential Listing Agreements\nThe difference between all of the listing types relates to how and under what circumstances a broker will get paid a fee\n(January 29, 2016) \u2013 There are four types of listings agreements commonly used by real estate agents. These four types are:\nNet (not permitted in all jurisdictions and rarely used)\nThe difference between all of the listing types relates to how and under what circumstances a broker gets paid. Most residential real estate listings will be an exclusive right to sell listing. Due to its inherent nature for misuse, the net listing should not be considered a permitted type of listing agreement. The following is a brief discussion of the four types of listing agreements.\nThis type of listing agreement allows the seller to employ any number of brokers at the same time. However, the seller would only owe a commission to the broker who sells the property. This type of listing agreement also allows the seller to sell the property without using or paying a broker, thereby saving the commission.\nThis type of listing agreement is rarely used in residential real estate because there is little motivation for any broker to promote the property, there is no motivation to cooperate with other brokers, and the broker is competing with the seller to find a buyer.\nA variant of the open listing is the one-time show listing. This type of listing is pretty much an open listing, limiting the payment of a fee to a broker showing the listing only to the specific buyer mentioned in the contract. This us usually used in a For Sale By Owner situation when the broker is pretty sure the listing will be a good fit for their buyer.\nWith this type of listing, the seller gives one broker the right to sell the property. However, the broker is not entitled to the commission if the seller sells the property. The advantage of the exclusive agency listing compared to the open listing is that competition from other brokers is eliminated so that the listing broker has a higher motivation.\nWith this type of listing, the seller employs one broker for a specific period. Another broker could sell the property, the seller can sell the property, or the listing broker could sell it. In each case, the listing broker will be paid a commission.\nThis is the type of listing recommended by the National Association of REALTORS\u00ae and is the most common form of listing agreement used for residential real estate. Many multiple listings services will require all property listed in their database to be an exclusive right to sell listing. The exposure of the property to the shared information of the MLS is a great marketing benefit to the seller.\nThis type of listing should be viewed as the most advantageous for both the broker and the seller. Because the broker will earn a commission if the listing sells, the broker can afford to spend time, money, and other resources necessary to market the property. This also permits the listing to be placed in the local MLS database of available listings. The seller also benefits from this type of listing because the broker\u2019s time, efforts, and resources help produce a successful sale.\nThe exclusive right to sell listing usually contains a clause that guarantees the seller will pay a listing broker commission if the property is sold to anyone introduced to the property during the listing period. However, if the seller lists the property with another broker after the original listing has expired, then the clause does not apply. The purpose of the clause is to prevent a buyer from purchasing a property directly from the seller, at a lower price, after the listing has expired. It may be viewed as a commission guarantee clause.\nThe net listing agreement allows the broker to take all of the sale proceeds over the agreed upon net sale price with the seller.\nEXAMPLE: The seller tells the broker that he wants to net $280,000 from the sale. The broker finds a buyer that is acceptable to the seller and who is willing to pay $380,000. The broker would then receive a fee of $100,000.\nNet listings are not allowed in some states and not recommended in others since they can end in lawsuits for licensees or financial loss for sellers.\nCategories: Real Estate Tags: contracts, exclusive listing, exclusive right listing, listing contracts, net listing, open listing, real estate listings\n\u2190 Average Time to Close a Loan Holds Steady at 49 Days\nMorgan Stanley to Pay $62.95 Million to Settle Residential Mortgage-Backed Security (RMBS) Claims \u2192",

Cool J, and Martin with Martin Lawrence.\n#10 \u2013 In 2003, he co-starred with Anthony Anderson in the short-lived TV series All About the Andersons.\n#11 \u2013 In 2009, he released a country album\u2026 yes, a country album with original country music songs that he wrote and produced.\n#12 \u2013 As of 2018, he has won more TV Land Awards than any other actor or actress, taking home several trophies for his various roles on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Good Times and Roots.\nAnd now here are some facts about actress Esther Rolle:\n#13 \u2013 First off, her parents were from the Bahamas and migrated to the United States before she was born, which officially makes her nationality Bahamian American.\n#14 \u2013 She was the tenth of 18 children, and two of her siblings also pursued careers in acting.\n#15 \u2013 She initially studied at Spelman College (HBCU) in Atlanta, and later studied at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut.\n#16 \u2013 For many years, she worked a traditional day job as a salesperson in New York City\u2019s thriving garment district.\n#17 \u2013 Her first appearance on-screen as an actress was a very small, uncredited role in To Kill a Mockingbird, the classic Oscar-winning film that was released in 1962.\n#18 \u2013 Her first major gig as an actress, however, was in 1971 when she played the role of Miss Maybell in the Melvin Van Peebles play, Don\u2019t Play Us Cheap.\n#19 \u2013 In 1972, she won the role of Florida Evans on the hit sitcom Maude. When that show was cancelled in 1974, she continued to play that role in the spin-off series which was Good Times. She appeared in nearly every episode, and in 1976, she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Television Series.\n#20 \u2013 While filming Good Times, most people had no idea that she was actually 19 years older than her on-screen husband, James Evans.\n#21 \u2013 During the entire 5th season of the show, she did not appear in any episodes. But she did return to the show for the 6th and final season.\n#22 \u2013 During the 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s, she appeared in several made-for-TV movies and films, including Driving Miss Daisy, My Fellow Americans, Rosewood, and Maya Angelou\u2019s I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.\n#23 \u2013 During the early 90\u2019s, she appeared in several psychic hotline TV commercials and her infamous line, \u201cTell them Esther sent you,\u201d became a national trademark.\n#24- She was married for 20 years, but never had any children.\n#25 \u2013 Sadly, she died in November 1998 from complications of diabetes, but reportedly she left an estate worth more than $1.7 million dollars including $200,000 in cash, a $400,000 home, and more than $1 million in treasuries.

        "raw_content": "The Sunday Salon: Horror Edition\nIt took me a long time to join the Sunday Salon. I hesitated because I wasn't sure I'd be able to post so regularly. To tell you the truth, I'm still not.\nUltimately I realized I needed this time to slow down a little, to reflect on my reading more than I do \u2013 which is not at all. I don't keep a proper reading journal, though I used to before I went back into the workforce, after having been an at-home mum for twelve years. This Salon may be as close as I get to recording more of a reflective record of what I've been reading. And that's a good thing.\nMy reading's been all over the place this week. I'm researching professional topics, partly related to graduate school (which starts up again for me next week \u2013 my final semester!), reading on matters relating to depression issues, and also books for review. No time to stop and reflect with so much going on.\nThe only book I finished this week \u2013 Kwei Quartey's Wife of the Gods \u2013 is a first novel in a detective series written by a brand new writer just out of the starting gate. I'll be reviewing it in full this Tuesday, so I can't even talk about it yet.\nNow that was anti-climactic. But if you come back Tuesday you can find out what a fantastic read it is.\nA few other things I can talk about, if that's a consolation. An almost librarian, I'm a member of two separate Reader's Advisory organizations headquartered in the Chicago suburban area. I'm brand spankin' new to both of them, having attended a grand total of one meeting each. Last week I attended my first meeting with the library system group \u2013 encompassing the whole kit and kaboodle of 450 member libraries. Not every librarian is into Reader's Advisory, so the total number in attendance was only around 20 or 25.\nSince I wasn't at their previous meeting I didn't know their format, that they'd decided this particular session would be a discussion on works by Stephen King and Joe Hill (King's son). That left me with little to contribute, save the fact I'd been to Bangor, Maine (King's hometown) and played paparazzi outside King's gate.\nThe majority of the group were unimpressed with King, but those few who read Hill loved his work. He's more scary, they said, and a better overall writer. He's less wordy in comparison, probably because his father's no longer heavily edited. That happens when a writer gets so popular.\nI haven't read King's work since high school, when I got through: Carrie, 'Salem's Lot, The Shining and The Stand. By the time I got to either Firestarter or Cujo my interest was waning. The more he wrote the more he left me cold; I wasn't riveted anymore.\nAlong with King, I read some Thomas Tryon (Harvest Home), all the \"Flowers in the Attic\" books (by V.C. Andrews), and a few by Mary Higgins Clark and Peter Straub. I don't remember titles I read. It was a \"junk food\" stage of reading, quickly forgotten for the most part.\nHarvest Home was an exception. I read it annually \u2013 around Halloween \u2013 for several years. Then it went by the wayside for a couple decades before I picked it up again, sometime in my thirties. I thought it stood up well, still giving me that slight prickling on the back of the neck. It never terrified me; it's too subtle for that. It gives the reader just enough unease without going over the top. Maybe that's why I've always liked it. It reminds me of the writing of Shirley Jackson and Susan Hill, both of whom I think do this genre just a little better.\nIn general I'm not a horror reader. Having three kids I don't need much more material. I enjoy a good ghost story, though. Gothic settings \u2013 castles and manor houses and such \u2013 are guilty pleasures. But I can't recall the last time a book really scared me; I just don't frighten easily.\nSo, this is my first attempt at The Sunday Salon. It doesn't quite hit the mark; I had nothing prepared in advance so it's a little rambling. I hope to do better next time.\nUntil next week, here's something to run a chill up your spine, courtesy of Stephen King's house\u2026 Broooo hahahahahaha!\n23-08-09 05-12-15 Lisa GuidariniThe Sunday Salon\nOne thought on \u201cThe Sunday Salon: Horror Edition\u201d\nKing, of course, if very popular here in the UK but I\u2019m not a King fan and have to confess that in my ignorance I had never heard of Joe Hill. I suspect he may not be as popular over here but I shall keep an eye open for him.\nPrevious Post Photos of the Day: No Pain, No Gain\nNext Post Blog Tour: \u2018Wife of the Gods\u2019 by Kwei Quartey",

        "raw_content": "Publisher: Knopf; First Edition edition (September 9, 2014)\n[Kirsten] Raymonde: \u2026 Look, I was eight. Nine, when we stopped walking. I can\u2019t remember the year we spent on the road, and I think that means I can\u2019t remember the worst of it. But my point is, doesn\u2019t it seem to you that the people who have the hardest time in this \u2013 this current era, whatever you want to call it, the world after the Georgia flu \u2013 doesn\u2019t it seem like the people who struggle the most with it are the people who remember the old world clearly?\nDiallo: I hadn\u2019t thought about it.\nRaymonde: What I mean to say is, the more you remember, the more you\u2019ve lost.\nSumming up such a complex book in the space of a blog post, without notes and organized forethought, is daunting. But I have to push on and get my thoughts out before too much time passes, and I either don\u2019t address it at all or forget too many details.\nThis is a complex tale with complex characters woven very tightly, though the full realization of their relationships comes about slowly, through the natural course of the story. Writers as accomplished as Joyce Carol Oates have admitted they have no idea how Mandel did this so seamlessly, appearing so effortless. Oates read it through twice and couldn\u2019t unravel how it was done and she is an artistic genius in her own right. So, what does this make Emily St. John Mandel, creator of a work capable of baffling one of our greatest contemporary writers? An uber genius, or just a writer who managed a nearly impossible feat of artistry, either through the most intricate of planning, spinning gossamer threads into a cloth of unearthly beauty, or a series of unintended opportunities she chanced upon?\nIt\u2019s impossible to imagine the author didn\u2019t know what she was doing. A writer doesn\u2019t just luck upon this degree of mastery. Or, if she does, I\u2019m insanely jealous. And though it seems silly pronouncing a book to have reached artistic heights unrealized before, this book has achieved wondrous things. Yet, it\u2019s not a book so complex readers should feel intimidated reading it. This is not difficult or obscure writing. It can be read as the riveting story it holds, or it can be analyzed ad nauseum in a literature course. It works well on both levels.\nThe plot hinges on an American actor, Arthur Leander, who has a heart attack and dies in the beginning of the book, during a performance of King Lear. The character Kirsten Raymonde, from the above quote, is a little girl acting the part of one of Lear\u2019s daughters, in a clever side-stage vignette at the beginning of the play. Kirsten survives the flu, of course, thanks to an older brother whose resourcefulness kept the two of them alive long enough for her to meet up with others, who took her in.. She grows into a strong young woman, proficient in the art of killing by way of throwing knives with deadly accuracy. From an innocent, if a bit bratty, child actor she matures into a woman capable of surviving in a post-apocalyptic world. As for Arthur, he leaves behind three ex-wives and one child, a son. It\u2019s his first wife, Miranda, whose graphic artwork is the basis for the book\u2019s title, artwork that will unite a few other characters, in just one of Mandel\u2019s cleverly laid plans. And it all comes back around perfectly.\nStation Eleven is a post-apocalyptic novel; the premise is the world has been decimated by the \u201cGeorgia Flu\u201d (as in former Soviet bloc, not the state of Georgia), a fast-moving deadly virus that kills within a couple of days. It hits the U.S. in California, through air travel and normal interaction between people, swiftly encompassing the country and the world before most people realize \u2013 or can bring themselves to believe \u2013 what is happening. The horrific part is this is precisely the sort of thing that could conceivably occur. Acts of terrorism will come but odds are, unless things go drastically wrong, it\u2019s less possible carnage on the scale in Station Eleven would happen. Not impossible, because no one can claim to know the extent to which humans are capable of destroying each other, but less likely. What gets under the reader\u2019s skin is this could, and someday likely will, happen here.\nThe way Mandel handles the ensuing chaos, following the realization most of the world\u2019s population will be wiped out, leaves much to the imagination. It is handled gently, in some respects. Instead of describing grotesque images of death and decaying corpses, much of it is laid out within the story and not overly graphic. For that I was grateful. She creates horror, just in a less obvious way, which really does require a great amount of skill. Along the same lines, the violence is occasionally front and center but often occurs off-stage, as it were. There is enough to make the novel feel real and immediate but not so much your stomach is turned. She inserts just enough of each.\nPanic ensues: fleeing people try to get out of cities, clogging the roadways. People grab rations, looting stores. Inevitably, things get to the point violence breaks out, as food and necessary rations become scarce or disappear. Shots ring out in cities; anarchy reigns. Odd groups of people come together. Religious cults form in reaction to the apocalyptic catastrophe. On the other end of the spectrum, there\u2019s the Travelling Symphony, a group of actors and musicians who travel from town to town, dedicated to keeping the arts alive. Years crawl by, then decades, as civilization struggles to make sense of what happened and how to go forward.\nStation Eleven\u2018s power lies not just in its structure or lyricism but also in its realism. I lost myself in the story, taking on feelings of visceral dread and hopelessness. I felt uncomfortable. The house quiet, the light fading, I tried to remind myself the world as we know it hadn\u2019t ended but a part of me didn\u2019t rebound so quickly. This being the 21st century, reassurance came via Twitter, all that scrolling mass of humanity reaching out to bring news headlines, links to cats behaving badly and really mundane statements about what\u2019s for dinner. And it is silly it was the first place I turned, and this is an oddly connected disconnected world, but after reading Emily St. James Mandel\u2019s book I found it all delightfully wonderful. It\u2019s a weirdly, wildly wonderful world, the kind where we\u2019re able to read amazing books and reach out to strangers and friends via social media.\nStation Eleven makes you realize what we have, all that sustains us in the 21st century. In many ways we\u2019re spoiled, having coming to rely on technology for so many things, and it\u2019s not clear how we could survive a pandemic. Mandel presents one way in which human beings could get things back together, slowly. The road is long and difficult, but as long as we have people dedicated to preserving their area of expertise, sharing it with others, we\u2019d have a chance. The novel ends on a promising note, not guaranteeing anything but giving the reader hope that, one day, the world will make it back.\n02-03-15 12-03-15 Lisa Guidarini2015, Book Reviews2015, emily st. john mandel\nOne thought on \u201cStation Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel\u201d\n2015: a year in (interrupted and chaotic) reading | Bluestalking\n[\u2026] but in looking back one book screams out, a book I read and reviewed here. That one book is Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel, the dystopian marvel I haven\u2019t gotten out of my head.

        "raw_content": "Tag Archive: A Charlie Brown Christmas\nReview\u2013The Peanuts Movie, a big family hit now on digital, 3D, DVD, and Blu-ray\nFiled under: Comics & Books, Fantasy Realms, Movies, Retro Fix \u2014 Leave a comment\nIt\u2019s something that fans of Charlie Brown and Snoopy have been waiting for, for several reasons. The Peanuts Movie hit theaters late last year, but it was lost in the movie season among the spectacle that was Star Wars released just weeks later. Yet if you saw it in the theater, you realize this movie was a keeper. The Peanuts Movie is what all family movies strive for: classic characters, good-natured humor, something to enjoy for every moviegoer. The very young will love Snoopy and understand the relationship of the Peanuts kids that we older folks have known and loved for years, in newspaper funnies, in paperback editions, and the many Peanuts specials. The Peanuts Movie does something else\u2013it provides the best version of Charlie Brown and friends we\u2019ve seen since the original 1965 favorite A Charlie Brown Christmas.\nThe Peanuts Movie gets it right from the beginning, in its pedigree. It\u2019s written by Craig Schulz, Charles M. Schulz\u2019s son and a writer on the Community comedy series, and Charles\u2019 grandson, Bryan. So, unlike the onslaught of lackluster adaptations that have plagued the Dr. Seuss properties after his death, the same heart and soul of Charles\u2019 creation is as powerful as ever. The writers have turned to the source material for many interactions in the film, like Lucy\u2019s converted lemonade stand/psychiatry office and the famous wall where Charlie and Linus ponder the worlds\u2019 problems, and yet they have updated the story in subtle and important ways that are both loyal to the original and still give loyalists a satisfying pay-off. And don\u2019t worry, the updating ends with the inclusion of standardized tests\u2013you won\u2019t find any cell phones, smart phones or texting issues for the kids in this movie.\nThe story centers around Charlie Brown\u2019s attraction to the little red-haired girl who moves in across the street and the lengths he will go to to try to impress her. This love affair was the core of many original Peanuts comic strips, based on Charles Schulz\u2019s real-life attraction from afar with a red-haired girl. Snoopy\u2019s parallel exploits in this movie mirror this love affair, as he pursues his own love story on paper, revealed to us as a story of a dog trying to win over air pilot Fifi in his World War I Sopwith Camel fighter plane on a mission in France, also taking on the famous Red Baron.\nThe Peanuts Movie hails from Blue Sky Studios, who brought us the Ice Age franchise. Even without a 3D television the depth of field here is spectacular, and with the 3D effect director Steve Martino does not shell out standard 3D gimmicks, but lets the characters simply float off the comic strip and into their own full-color, beautiful \u201creal\u201d world. The backgrounds look like the homes and backyards of any American town cul de sac. And if you look close enough you\u2019ll see Snoopy finally has fur.\nTags: 3D Blu-ray, A Charlie Brown Christmas, Bill Melendez, Blue Sky Studios, Bryan Schulz, Charles M.

It\u2019s Your 50th Christmas, Charlie Brown, will be hosted by Kristen Bell and feature several celebrities including singer Sarah McLachlan.\nAs with each year since 1965, the most beloved Christmas classic of all time is airing early in December, so early that it\u2019s always so easy to miss. Set the DVR now to catch both the show and the documentary. It will feature details about the creation of the show and creators Charles M. Schulz, Bill Melendez, Lee Mendelson, and Vince Guaraldi.\nIf you miss the show tonight, pick up this DVD anniversary edition of the classic here from Amazon.com and the Vince Guaraldi soundtrack re-mastered in 2012 here .\nIt\u2019s Your 50th Christmas, Charlie Brown airs tonight, November 30, 2015. at 7 p.m. Central on ABC, followed by the original A Charlie Brown Christmas at 8 p.m.\nTags: A Charlie Brown Christmas, Bill Melendez, Charles M. Schulz, It's Your 50th Christmas Charlie Brown, Kristen Bell, Lee Mendelson, Sarah McLachlan, Vince Guaraldi\nStumped and Nonplussed by The Doctor\u2019s Fall Return\nWith a few spoilers, (said in the voice of River Song).\nWell, huh. I\u2019m not sure where to start with a review of \u201cLet\u2019s Kill Hitler\u201d and \u201cNight Terrors,\u201d the two new Doctor Who episodes delivered to U.S. viewers this week. Perhaps it would be easier to start with \u201cTerrors\u201d and work our way backward.\n\u201cNight Terrors\u201d is a classic one-off episode of the \u201cmonster of the week\u201d type, featuring the fears of a little boy made terrifyingly manifest, as his creepy toys, neighbors, and worrisome apartment-complex noises nearly kill off Amy (Karen Gillan) and Rory (Arthur Darvill). Although we (and The Doctor) are drawn in by young George\u2019s plight and plea (\u201cPlease come save me from the monsters!\u201d), the real pathos of this episode was provided by Daniel Mays (Ashes to Ashes), in a convincing turn as the boy\u2019s desperate and frustrated father, unable to comfort his pantophobic son (pantophobia being, as we know from A Charlie Brown Christmas, the fear of everything\u2026 not just pants). It\u2019s always fun to watch Amy and Rory tackle danger together\u2013whether facing down interstellar child abductors or fleeing oversized dollhouse denizens come to life (or cracking elevator jokes that nod to Mays\u2019s Ashes to Ashes past)\u2013but this story as a whole feels familiar: We\u2019ve seen Matt Smith\u2019s Doctor comfort children terrified by the monsters under (or behind) their beds before, and \u201cNight Terrors\u201d is nothing new. And the child in this case has none of young Amelia Pond\u2019s charisma, nor even the chance to develop any, upstaged as he is by his father\u2019s role in the story. All in all, an entertaining if lightweight entry into the Smith/Moffat catalogue.\n\u201cLet\u2019s Kill Hitler,\u201d however\u2026 wow. Where to begin? Capturing much of the frenetic energy from \u201cA Good Man Goes to War,\u201d the episode starts off breathlessly and doesn\u2019t let up, firing a dizzying barrage of revelations at the viewer. We learn, finally, Everything about River Song. After the years of teasing and the season of setup, Now We Know.\nBut do we care? That\u2019s another question altogether. I don\u2019t feel satisfied by this episode, the way I did after \u201cA Good Man.\u201d There\u2019s something faintly baffling about the resolution of all the mysteries surrounding River\u2019s past, and something definitely missing from Amy and Rory\u2019s emotional arc. They\u2019ve lost their child! I don\u2019t care if they hardly had time to get used to the idea of being parents\u2013let alone River Song\u2019s parents\u2013they\u2019ve still had part of their hearts ripped out, and we should see that. Everyone in this cast is capable of the emotions the events of \u201cGood Man\u201d should naturally have engendered, and as a viewer, I feel cheated that we didn\u2019t get to see any of that. There were no consequences to anything we saw last spring, and that depresses me.\nTo be sure, as a vehicle for Kingston, it was a success\u2013her performance is stellar and delightful, and she proves she\u2019s absolutely up for whatever Moffat throws at her. But, again, I\u2019m left unsettled by the development of a character we\u2019ve come to love. Yes, we\u2019ve been prepared to see her criminal past since her second appearance (\u201cTime of Angels\u201d/\u201dFlesh and Stone\u201d), but this still didn\u2019t feel like the River we know. And as a viewer now invested in the drama of young Melody/River\u2019s mysterious upbringing in the Gamma Forest, seeing her instead as a childhood mate of Amy and Rory was a weird letdown. It was over too soon. All that marvelous setup and worldbuilding was so full of fantastic potential, and it all just fell flat. Even the title felt like a cheat\u2013the blithe declaration, \u201cLet\u2019s Kill Hitler!\u201d becomes nothing more than a comedic red herring to a rush job to finish off the River Song storyline.\nIt\u2019s too bad, really. It wasn\u2019t necessary to give this sort of ammunition to the Smith/Moffat naysayers. The show has proven it can do so much more\u2013deeper, farther-reaching storylines that play all the right emotional notes while constantly surprising and delighting the viewers. To seemingly wash their hands of such a promising storyline\u2013one we\u2019ve been primed to anticipate for three and a half years\u2013makes me wonder if the show\u2019s creators are getting bored with their own creations. And that bodes ill for all of us.\nTags: A Charlie Brown Christmas, A Good Man Goes to War, Amy Pond, Arthur Darvill, Ashes to Ashes, Daniel Mays, Doctor Who, Karen Gillan, Let's Kill Hitler, Matt Smith, Night Terrors, River Song, Rory, Steven Moffat",

        "raw_content": "A shortened version of this article has appeared in the Guardian (link). It has been originally written in Hebrew for the Opus magazine (link)\nToday I would like to talk about pianos. Not necessarily from a historic point of view (invented by Bartolomeo Christofori around 1700, attained its present shape and characteristics towards the later part of the 19th century), nor from the technical one (a complex mechanism of levers, rails, pins, wires and springs that transmits the pressing of a key onto the hammer, which is then thrown and hits a string), but rather from the personal one \u2013 to discuss the special bond between the pianist and the piano.\nGrand piano action\nWithout a doubt, violinists have just as personal and special a bond with the violin they play on, and so do trumpeters, clarinetists or guitarists\u2014but as opposed to them (and, indeed, to all other musicians, except for organists), the absolute majority of pianists do not play their own instrument onstage. The piano is not portable, it is cumbersome and costly to transport, and hence we have a kind of a status quo: the pianist practises at home on their piano, but performs at concert halls, each one with another, different, strange piano. A piano that belongs to the hall, and which, in most cases, we haven\u2019t touched prior to setting foot at the hall that morning.\nPiano at the Musikverein (photo: B\u00f6sendorfer / David M. Peters)\nThe moment of the first encounter is worth describing. You enter the hall, looking forward to (or full of trepidation before) the encounter with a new and unknown piano (those of us who are optimistic hope for a good piano each time). The instrument stands in the middle of the stage, you approach it, remove your watch, empty your pockets of wallet and phone, sit down, adjust the piano bench\u2026 All the while somebody from the hall stands nearby, also expectant: while you may travel from one hall to another, and for you this is just one piano out of many, for them it is the only piano that matters, and they care, sometimes very much so, about the way you react and whether the piano pleases you.\nSo, the promoter stands beside you, waiting politely, hopefully, expectantly, and you, fully aware of the importance of the moment, finally play something on the keyboard: a chord, a passage, a few bars from one of the works\u2014and the piano immediately ceases being a generic and unknown something, a specimen of the grand pianos genus, and becomes the most concrete, tangible, real thing there is. This is the piano you are going to play on tonight, and your encounter has just begun.\nPiano lore can be summarised in a few short sentences:\nThere are good and bad pianos. This might sound self-evident, but it is possibly the most basic fact in a pianist\u2019s life. Both kinds are to be found in all sizes, manufactured by all piano firms, and at any price point. That is to say that a concert grand piano (2.70m or more) costing over \u00a3100,000 can be bad.\nSize both matters and does not matter. Smaller can be better than larger, but between two good pianos, the sound of the larger one will be richer (a function of the longer strings and larger soundboard). Sound volume and projection also change with size; a baby concert grand (1.50m) will struggle to fill a 2,000 seater hall.\nOne can get used to any piano. Seriously. There are no exceptions to this rule, even when the instrument is terrible. The better a piano is, the less time is required, and vice versa. At the same time, a good piano is multi-layered; there is always something else to discover in its tone. A bad piano functions in what-you-see-(or rather hear)-is-what-you-get mode, producing the same sound even after hours of practice.\nOne can practice on a piano to one\u2019s heart\u2019s content, and it\u2019s certainly necessary and helpful, but if you want to really get to know a piano, there is no better way than playing a full concert on it, before a real audience. By the end of the concert, if not earlier, you will know the instrument; my word of honour..\nIt is perhaps important to mention another thing. When we see two identical objects, our natural assumption is that they are indeed identical, and if there is an element of function to those objects, we expect the two to function in the same way (we wouldn\u2019t expect, let\u2019s say, two cars of the same model to accelerate or brake differently). With pianos the situation is fundamentally different\u2014they are unique, each one of them. The manufacturing process of a grand piano takes up to three years, and includes hundreds of processes, both active, such as construction and assembly, and passive, physical and chemical, the drying of layers of lacquer or glue, for example; also, adjustments, most of them hand-made, and each one of them affecting the final tone of the piano (here\u2018s a website explaining the process in detail). So, in the end, two pianos of the same model, manufactured by the same company in the same year, will sound differently, even to an untrained ear. The contrast in sound between different models, or between pianos made in different years or from different companies will be even more apparent.\nThis is to say that looking at the shiny and beautiful outward appearance of the piano is not of much help; it can conceal a superb or a very bad instrument. This trait\u2014each piano being one-of-a-kind\u2014guarantees a challenge, an interesting or a frustrating one, depending upon the circumstances. On one hand, there is a constant element of uncertainty, adding to the pressure and stress that accompany each concert. But this basic difference also has a positive side to it, as the pianist is involuntarily affected by the piano. We react to the tone we hear during the performance, we are forced to overcome certain technical difficulties while playing, but it goes beyond that: one could say that a good piano (like a good conversation partner) can offer new directions to our interpretations. Should we be flexible and spontaneous while playing, should we not force our will upon the instrument, but rather remain attentive to its tonal character and try to connect with it in an organic way, the piano will prove capable of taking us to lands far more distant and interesting than those we had foreseen or planned. Those lands would change from one piano to another: an instrument which possesses a warm, human tone will lead the performer to a very different place than one whose tone is transparent and crystalline.\nPersonally I see an advantage in this: each concert, even if the pieces in it were performed dozens of times, becomes an journey of discovery; everything remains fresh and new, and you are kept on the edge of your chair, alert and wide\u2013awake, curious to find out how the Beethoven, the Ravel or the Rachmaninov will sound tonight. This is anti-routine. (One cannot talk about routine when discussing musical performance, of course, but this element of uncertainty, brought about by the unending variety of pianos, makes each concert even less commonplace; and if were it removed from the equation; if, one day, I were given the opportunity of playing each concert on my home piano\u2014an instrument I know inside out\u2014I think I would miss the situation which exists today.)\nTo return to our narrative: those first sounds which you had just played will give you an admittedly approximate, but usually quite accurate picture of the instrument\u2019s sound. And you know right away, even before the brain has the time to process what it has heard. There is certainly room for adjustments and acclimatisation, both to the piano and to the acoustics in the hall, but I can\u2019t recall a single instance in recent years in which the initial gut reaction was completely refuted later. Several hours of practising will yield an improvement of X percent in the sound you are able to draw out of the piano and will help you overcome the technical imperfections of the keyboard, but unfortunately no number of hours of practice will change a \u2018don\u2019t like\u2019 into a \u2018like\u2019. Unfortunately, I say, as I would have loved the situation to be different.\nFor if you think of it, we are completely at the mercy of the piano currently standing on the stage. It is our main ally for that night, and those short moments of initial playing reveal the character of our future brother-in-arms. A comfortable piano, one which feels as the natural continuation of one\u2019s hand, can help a pianist who feels insecure to forget their worries during the performance and to become engrossed in the music and in the process of playing. And exactly so, a bad piano can heighten the feeling of insecurity, can treacherously ruin the pianist\u2019s concentration (always at the most dangerous moment), and make even the best-prepared pianist trip and fall. This, just from the technical side of the equation; speaking of music, those first notes are a forecast, a sign of things to come\u2014whether the piano\u2019s sound will give inspiration, will invite the pianist to a profound performance full of poetry, or contrarily, whether it will thwart any attempts to make the keyboard sing, to transcend the lines of notes and to try and touch the listeners\u2019 souls.\nThese are, of course, extreme examples. Pianos that \u2018make or break\u2019 concerts are not ubiquitous. But the piano\u2019s influence over the performance is very tangible, and just imagine how grand it would be if we were able to turn \u2018cooking pans\u2019 (as one wryly calls unsalvageable instruments in Russian) into piano-masterpieces by sheer willpower and determination. Yet the only possibility to affect significantly the tonal character of a piano is meticulous work done by a highly-qualified technician; work which takes hours if not days, and this is rarely possible under normal circumstances. Mostly, what stands on the stage is all there is, and this is the main reason why an initial \u2018like\u2019 is so gladdening, and a \u2018don\u2019t like\u2019 is so unfortunate.\nBut what is this \u2018like\u2019? I\u2019ll try to describe my dream piano: it possesses a singing, translucent sound with a long decay, rich, varied, lacking any aggression (what is called a \u2018banging sound\u2019\u2014this is 90% the responsibility of the pianist, but the piano contributes to it as well, as, if its natural sound is too open and shouting, it will be harder to control). Every note is perfectly formed, rounded and bell-like. It has as broad a dynamic range as possible between pianissimo and fortissimo, with many levels in-between. All the registers of the keyboard (bass, middle, top) are uniform in colour, and there are no weak or unclear areas; nor are there any overly bright or open ones. Mechanically, an utterly even keyboard (keys equally weighted), a touch neither too heavy nor too light, allowing full control over the sound. And all of this is combined and united\u2014a whole larger than the sum of its parts; a piano with an intriguing and fascinating character, making each interaction with it a true experience and inviting you to go further afield and explore new ares and layers in the works that you are playing.\nI may have got slightly carried away. But a performance on such a piano can be unforgettable.\nFrom this you can infer the \u2018don\u2019t like\u2019: a metallic or unclear sound, flat and unvaried, a narrow dynamic range, an uneven keyboard, lack of personality\u2014you get the idea. A dull, characterless piano, \u201cneither fish nor meat\u201d, to quote another Russian saying, is included in this category too.\nYou might well think that the demands are exaggerated, and how much of it will the audience hear anyway? This is both true and not true. The demands are high indeed, and each and every pianist has their own \u2018bugs\u2019. Some are especially sensitive to technical imperfections, some care about nothing beyond the beauty of the sound. Neither will every pianist be so demanding: the scale ranges from Sviatoslav Richter, who displayed almost complete indifference to the subject (though one can infer from his interviews that he was very well aware of the quality of the pianos he played on), and up to Gregory Sokolov, who is nearly infamous for the demands he poses of his pianos: demands which are fully justified, in my opinion, as Sokolov\u2019s control of the keyboard is peerless in all what regards colours, nuances and separation of voices. The rest are located between these two poles, and in my opinion (which I cannot prove scientifically) we would find more pianists closer to Sokolov\u2019s side of the scale, than to Richter\u2019s.\nBut if we regard this from a broader perspective, these demands are not so different from those posed by any artist or craftsman of the tools and materials with which they work: the painter the brush, paints and canvas (and the light); the cook the knives and ingredients from which to prepare the meal; the photographer the camera and lenses (and once again the light!), and, if we go a bit further, the race-car driver the car they drive (which perhaps is not such a far-fetched comparison, as both cases concern the interaction of a single person with a single yet highly complex tool). The schema is similar: an artist, in whatever field, will obtain a fine result even when working with subpar materials and tools, but will achieve so much more when those are choice (on the other hand, no-one but a true master will be able to draw out the true potential of the very best materials and tools). Hence, perhaps, it is not surprising that most pianists tend to demand more rather than less from pianos.\nThe answer to second part of that question\u2014what of this will reach the audience\u2019s ears?\u2014might come as a surprise: quite a lot. Speaking with audience-members post-concert, I have found that the listeners were very much aware of the beauty of the piano\u2019s sound: a singing vs. a harsh/metallic sound, as well as of its volume\u2014whether one needs to strain oneself in order to hear clearly, or whether the sound carries and easily fills the hall. However, it seems that unless the piano is singularly good or bad, after a short while the listeners\u2019 attention switches from the instrument to the interpretation, and from then on it\u2019s all in the performers\u2019 hands.\nAn interesting question which is related to the subject, is how two different pianists would sound if ever they played on the same instrument. I once had a heated discussion with a lecturer (a musicologist, not a pianist himself) who maintained that the difference in the sounds of Horowitz and Rubinstein (click the links for a comparison) stemmed only from the differences in their pianos, and if one had only seated them behind the same instrument, they would have immediately sounded the same. At the time I could find no riposte (though I sensed this assertion was absurd), while today I would first of all refer him to a recording of any round of whichever piano competition: it is enough to hear two contestants playing on the same piano and the argument collapses immediately, as those are significant and easily audible differences. One could also compare recordings by the same pianist throughout various decades: to go on with the example of Horowitz and Rubinstein, we will find that there is much more resemblance between the sound of young Horowitz and that of mature Horowitz than between Horowitz and Rubinstein at any given point of time. In other words, each interpreter has their own specific sound which they try to reproduce on every piano they play on. Perhaps this is another way of judging the worth of an instrument: how easy it is to produce from it the sound the pianist desires.\nSo where does this difference stem from? My opinion is that the \u2018sound\u2019 of pianist A or B is not a simple variable but a complex one which includes both the way a single sound is produced (where there are numerous options as well, such as which muscles take part\u2014whether the fingers only, or the palm as well; the forearm, the upper arm or the entire arm from the shoulder, or even from the shoulder blades\u2014how tense or relaxed those muscles are; which joints are employed as \u2018shock absorbers\u2019 to avoid a harsh sound, etc.), but also the use of pedal, the way the voices are separated (such as the difference in sound strength between the melody and the accompaniment), the rubato or \u2018stolen time\u2019\u2014the prolongation of certain notes at the expense of others to gain freedom of musical expression\u2014and most probably many other variables, which can all be combined in countless variations and which we, the listeners, perceive as a single element, the sound of the player.\nLet us return one last time to our narrative: we have tried the piano, have had the first impressions, our heart rejoiced or fell in disappointment, and then practising begins. Without our noticing, a slow and interesting process of acclimatisation occurs: the aural and tactile equivalent of eyes adjusting with time to darkness. Our ears require time to get used to the specific way the sounds spreads in that hall, and our fingers need time to adjust to this specific keyboard. The body does it by itself, and it seems that nothing is required besides time and an unwillingness to give up, plus often reminding oneself of Piano Lore Point No. 3 (\u201cone can get used to any piano\u201d). Several hours pass, and suddenly\u2014it is always the same: \u201cwait a minute, how did this happen?\u201d\u2014the sound becomes fuller, deeper, you have more control over hues, the piano feels less and less as strange, uncharted territory. This is the time when the practice session is at its most productive: our growing acquaintance with the instrument spurs us to intensify our attempts, as we want to test our newly found control over the sound in many different parts of that night\u2019s programme. Simultaneously, the intensive work accelerates the speed of getting used to the instrument. It doesn\u2019t always happen, but when it does, it\u2019s a virtuous circle; a good place to be.\nWhether we managed to fully adapt to the piano or not, the time comes, and we go onstage, take a bow, and sit behind the piano with a clear and focused knowing: this is for real. A few seconds of concentration, hands are raised onto the keyboard, the fingers play the first notes, and\u2026 wait, is it the same piano? Nearly always a small (or a big) surprise awaits us in those first notes: with the presence of the audience the acoustics in the hall has changed imperceptibly (or unrecognisably), and we need a bit of extra time (or half the concert) to re-adapt. This is the customary explanation; but it seems to me there is another element at work: the most intensive concentration during practice hours cannot compare with the standard concentration one maintains at a concert. For the duration of the live performance we simply hear things differently, as if our ears\u2019 capability became augmented. The silence is different too: the silence of an empty hall is much weaker than the live, breathing silence of a hall filled with attentively listening people. I often feel that at that moment the connection to the outer world is severed, and we find ourselves in a kind of enclosed space and time, in which nothing exists beside the audience, the piano, the music and the player, all united by the silence. And then it should come as no surprise that the piano sounds different at first: we have been transported into a world of our own.\nWhat drives us during the daily practice sessions is the love we feel for the composers and the musical worlds they created in their works. Before a concert, our appreciation for the audience is added into the mix, as is our desire to share with the listeners the feeling of wonder, nearly of awe, which stems from the magical process of creating the music anew on the stage. And at the moment we begin to play it is the piano which is the centre of our existence. Imagine the silence just before the concert begins, out of which emerge the first notes of\u2026 Beethoven\u2019s 4th concerto, with their softness and nobility, or the toll of funeral bells in the opening of Rachmaninov\u2019s 2nd concerto, or the luminous, polished tones of the opening Aria from the Goldberg Variations, or any other piano composition, of which there is a myriad, and there you shall find our love for the instrument itself, for the enormous richness of sonorities hidden within it, a richness only limited by our imagination, a richness sometimes discovered at this very moment, on the stage, in the presence of the listeners. And there you shall find our love for the gentleness and the might which is in the piano, for the virtuoso brilliance and the beautiful cantilena that it can produce, for the feeling of the keys beneath your fingers, for its polyphony and the multi-layeredness.\nWe finish the concert in full knowledge of all the secrets which the piano may have kept hidden previously: no corner remains unlit under the intensive spotlight of a live performance. If it was a good piano, we are left with a feeling of warmth and love, no longer directed towards some generic and abstract idea of \u2018piano\u2019, but rather to this very specific piano, the one that was a complete stranger to us not so long ago, and which we are now deeply and intimately acquainted with: the piano that shared with us the musical ups and downs of the previous two hours, the moments of musical elevation and also the blunders (and perhaps contributed to a few of them itself), that was an equal partner in all that had just now transpired onstage. And if we are due to leave on the following morning, heading to another town and another hall, in which there is also a new, different and unknown piano, then the feelings of warmth and love are tinged with sadness over the prompt farewell.\nSo when you next hear me or any other pianist complain about the great challenge inherent to our profession (\u201cthere is a new piano to get used to every time\u201d), don\u2019t believe us, or, at least, take our words with a large grain of salt.",

        "raw_content": "2018, overall, has been a good year for me. It started in my new flat, which (although it still needs some work \u2013 doesn\u2019t everything?) suits me very well. It included meeting great people (new collaborators, new students, new partner!), and maintaining connections with old friends. I took the Eurostar to Cologne and the ferry to Belfast for the first time. I caught up with, and worked with, people all over the world, without leaving my living room. I think that epitomises my response to the wider political situation: to try, using Skype, Zoom, Twitter, Facebook, and all the other amazing tools the internet affords us, to create stronger international links without adding unnecessarily to my carbon footprint.\nIt\u2019s been a good year for writing. I had a book come out (the expensive university library one), a book accepted for publication (Telling the Truth about God will be out next year at a much more reasonable price), and I have almost completed a draft novel manuscript. I haven\u2019t blogged as much in 2018; this is only post number 20, although I\u2019ve had almost the same number of views (almost 4000) as in 2017 and 2016. I set out to see how many poems I could get rejected from magazines, and managed 30 (and got a few published, in A New Ulster and Poethead). I had some academic journal articles appear, including one on afterwords and one on multiple religious belonging.\nOther opportunities have opened up. I\u2019ve been enjoying editing a special edition of Religions on interdisciplinary Quaker Studies (5 articles published and some more to come), and in 2019 I\u2019m looking forward to working on The Quaker World with Wess Daniels. (Chapter proposals are open! Tell us what you\u2019d like to write about!)\nI read a lot of books (as those who follow me on Goodreads will know). That many books always includes a few duds or things which just weren\u2019t to my taste, but it also includes so many excellent books it\u2019s hard to pick out just a few. Some people I know personally published great books this year, so naturally I\u2019m biased towards those (examples include: Quaker Studies: an Overview, Our Child of the Stars, Sing for the Coming of the Longest Night). Of the other fiction I read this year, I really liked The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet (and the other two books in the series), and was passed Hag-Seed by a friend who was right that it\u2019s a fascinating read. I also enjoyed Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, No Man of Woman Born, The Tea Master and the Detective, and Unfit to Print. In non-fiction (well, excluding work stuff\u2026 I\u2019ll probably be writing more about that next year), favourites included Balancing on the Mechitza, Doughnut Economics, The Prodigal Tongue, Saving Alex, and So You Want To Talk About Race.\nBesides writing and reading \u2013 although, frankly, those are my favourite activities \u2013 I\u2019ve also done some other things. I co-taught a course on Friends with Dual Religious Identities which led to some really productive conversations, and ran a small course at Swarthmoor Hall on Afterwords which also went well. I enjoyed a family holiday on Orkney (which inspired some aspects of the draft novel\u2026) and a course on Writing Our Roots (which lead to some good poem drafts)\u2026 okay, correction, I don\u2019t really do anything which isn\u2019t about reading or writing in some way. \ud83d\ude00 Even Britain Yearly Meeting was this year much concerned with books \u2013 deciding whether to revise our book of discipline. It was a big event for me personally, too, because of my service on the Revision Preparation Group, a committee who became real friends during our work.\nIn 2019 I\u2019m planning new challenges \u2013 new courses to teach, conferences to attend, books to write, study leave to take (and use as well as possible!), and of course lots to read. And my first book launch. Watch this space for details!\nTagged 2018, books, reading, review, travel, writing",

        "raw_content": "Review \u2013 The Briton and the Dane\nDecember 10, 2017 by Christine\tin Criticism and tagged Anglo-Saxon, King Alfred, Mary Ann Bernal, Romance, The Briton and the Dane, Wareham\n\u201cGwyneth walked towards the formidable Keep, nodding to the guards patrolling the wall-walk once she reached the top of the tower. She breathed in the sea air, admiring the beauty of the land as the sun disappeared below the horizon, mesmerized by the rich and colorful hues of the darkening sky. She was comforted by the melodious sound of breaking waves crashing against the rocky cliffs, which was a calming respite from the throes of a violent world.\u201d\nThis is the start of \u201cThe Briton and the Dane\u201d by Mary Ann Bernal. I downloaded this book some time ago (June 2015, Amazon tells me.) I got 18% into the book, before giving up \u2013 it was so bad. Looking for something to review this week, I decided to give it another try. After all, Amazon\u2019s reviews for this book average 9.5 stars. The reviewers rave over it. Was I missing something?\nI pressed on to about 50% \u2013 My opinion hasn\u2019t changed.\nLet\u2019s return to Gwyneth in her castle. Not a bad start, a bit dramatic, but you need to hook the reader. She sees a wounded stranger, wandering the beach. She rescues him, patches him up and \u201cthe sight of his bulging muscles caused her heart to beat faster\u201d and she instantly falls in love with him. A bit quick but this is Historical Romance. Actually I would have liked a picture of the bulging muscles on the cover \u2013 it would have helped to relieve the tedium!\nWe meet Gwyneth\u2019s family: her father Lord Richard, her brothers David and Stephen. Gwyneth does not know that her father has arranged a marriage to another man, she runs away, etc. There are other characters all in love with or married to the wrong man. There are political complications. The language is a type of cod medieval that I last heard in (very) old films. A phrase picked at random, during a fight to the death:\n\u201cLord, please spare David,\u201d Gwyneth silently prayed, \u201cand end this fight before blood is spent!\u201d (In fact, typing it out, I\u2019m not sure what this means!)\nNone of this would necessarily put me off, except for one thing \u2013 Remember? I am writing a series of posts on the subject of Anglo-Saxons and (in this case Romance). This book is set in the reign of King Alfred. The bulging muscles belong to a Dane called Eric, but you would never have guessed from the other names, that they are Anglo-Saxon. These Norman names would not appear in England for more than two hundred years.\nIt is set shortly after King Guthrum\u2019s defeat by Alfred and his conversion to Christianity. Lord Richard is the Lord of Wareham. Now I\u2019m not sure if I\u2019ve ever been to Wareham, I might well have passed through it on holidays in the area, but I am pretty sure there are was no Anglo-Saxon castle (with keep) on the cliffs there. In fact, there are no cliffs, rocky or otherwise. A quick check on Wikipedia would tell you that:\n\u201cThe town is built on a strategic dry point between the River Frome and the River Piddle at the head of the Wareham Channel of Poole Harbour. The Frome Valley runs through an area of unresistant sand, clay and gravel rocks, and much of its valley has wide flood plains and marsh land. At its estuary the river has formed the wide shallow ria of Poole Harbour. Wareham is built on a low dry island between the marshy river plains.\u201d\nYes, King Alfred built earth ramparts round the town and it was occupied by the Danes in 976. But sorry, no \u201cformidable fortress sitting atop the rocky cliff\u201d. There were no stone castles until the Normans built them 200 years later. Just a few ruined walls left by the Romans.\nFor me this book failed on every level. The plot is difficult to follow \u2013 people tell each other what is happening, repeatedly and there are unexpected flashbacks to explain what happened in the past. The setting was wrong and there was absolutely no sense that these characters were living in the ninth century.\nAs for Gwyneth and Eric, I have no wish to find out if they live happily ever after. I assume they do as the series continues for two more books, with what looks like a spin-off, plus a time slip novel. There are many, much better, books out there to read instead.\nDespite, or perhaps because of, this, I wrote 6,541 words last week (with this post that means I\u2019m over my weekly target of 7k!)\n\u2190 Prize Winning Author\nChristmas is coming \u2013 three times over. \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Throughout her reign, the Queen has helped more than 600 charities generate $2.5 billion in aid and has become a shining example for younger royals around the world. Making a difference is in her blood. As it is for her granddaughter-in-law, the Duchess of Cambridge, who is carrying on the charitable legacy, taking on 13 patronages (and counting) focused on child bereavement, mental health and more. Kate\u2019s impact will be amplified, of course, by Prince Harry\u2019s fianc\u00e9e, Meghan Markle, who\u2019s no stranger to philanthropy, having been a World Vision Canada ambassador and a women\u2019s rights activist. And Queen Rania of Jordan is invested in the well-being of children and works tirelessly to create inclusive and stable education systems in the Middle East.\nTime may be up for perpetrators of harassment in Hollywood, but stars like Jessica Chastain are just getting started in their quest to protect women and fight for equality. The leading lady has been a vocal supporter of the Me Too movement and recently helped her friend Octavia Spencer increase her salary five times over on the upcoming film they\u2019re starring in. \u201cIf someone is suffering, then in some way I\u2019m suffering as well,\u201d says Jessica. \u201cSo that makes it a lot easier to speak up.\u201d Joining the actress in the fight are Lupita Nyong\u2019o, Jennifer Lawrence and Natalie Portman, who have bravely shared their own stories of abuse. \u201cI went from thinking, \u2018I don\u2019t have a story,\u2019 to, \u2018Oh, wait, I have 100 stories,\u2019\u201d says Natalie, who adds, \u201cI think a lot of people are having these reckonings with themselves.\u201d\nPushing boundaries and leading by example are what these ladies do best. In addition to her work as a human rights lawyer and being a mom to twins Ella and Alexander, Amal Clooney has joined forces with her husband, George Clooney,to help battle the world\u2019s refugee crisis and hate crimes and gun violence in the U.S. Sophie Gr\u00e9goire Trudeau, meanwhile, focuses much of her energy on gender equality and women\u2019s rights, using her platform to tell women and girls around the world: \u201cI wish you could see just how beautiful you are and how possible it is to self-love, and be at peace.\u201d Tessa Virtue is another inspiring Canadian whose success \u2013 most recently at the PyeongChang Olympics \u2013 and message is resonating with young girls everywhere: with hard work and perseverance, dreams can come true.\nTheir generosity knows no limits, but for these humanitarian heroes, their hearts belong to children. As a longtime special envoy of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Angelina Jolie is on a mission to help refugee children live up to their potential. \u201cAt the end of the day they are just children, with the same hopes and rights as children in any other nation,\u201d says the mother of six.Oprah Winfrey\u2019s pride and joy is her academy for young girls in South Africa, which she opened in 2007. The star, 64, serves up some major inspiration to students, telling them, \u201cThere is no bar,there is no ceiling. We\u2019re not just going to crack the ceiling; it doesn\u2019t exist.\u201d And her friend Michelle Obama, with help from her husband, Barack, and their eponymous foundation, is fostering future leaders by equipping them with the tools they need to provoke change.\n\u201cMy mother always said to me, \u2018If you want something done, do it yourself,\u2019\u201dsays Reese Witherspoon, who has spun that wise advice into a female-centric production company that counts award-winning projects like Big Little Lies in its portfolio. Rihanna is also taking care of business. She has released four athleisure collections as creative director of Puma, and her Fenty Beauty brand \u2013 created to make women everywhere feel included \u2013 is valued at $93 million! Their success recalls that of lifestyle mogul Gwyneth Paltrow, who has grown her Goop blog into a one-stop shop for women, serving up everything from wellness tips to curated advice on travel, beauty and more.\nCeline Dion leads a choir of singers who have become inspiring role models for more than just their talent. As she approaches her 50th birthday, the Canadian continues to be a beacon of strength both on and off stage, following the heartbreaking loss of her husband in 2016. \u201cI\u2019m trying to prove to him every day I\u2019m fine. Our kids are growing, we feel strong,\u201d says Celine. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez are also influencing more than just the music charts. Both have used personal struggles to spark necessary conversations among their millions of fans. Taylor took a stand against sexual assault in court (winning a symbolic $1 settlement in support of all victims), while Selena has helped end the stigma surrounding mental health by opening up about her battle with anxiety and depression. The 25-year-old says she is \u201cgrateful [to have] a voice that can enable change.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Cavaliers roll over Magic\n(The Sports Xchange) - The Cleveland Cavaliers hardly broke sweat in rolling to their most lopsided win of the season, a 111-76 victory over the Orlando Magic at the Amway Center.\nDec 11, 2015; Orlando, FL, USA; Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James (23) dribbles the ball as Orlando Magic guard Elfrid Payton (4) defends during the second half at Amway Center. The Cavaliers won 111-76. Mandatory Credit: Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports\nLeBron James scored 25 points as the Cavaliers beat the Magic for the 12th consecutive time \u2014 their longest win streak against any team \u2014 as they coasted through the second half of a wire-to-wire win.\n\u201cWe were tough,\u201d James said. \u201cWhen we get out and defend early, we can do some special things out there. It\u2019s a mindset. I just wanted to put my staple on the game early.\u201d\nJames hit 10 of 15 shots and added eight assists in only 29 minutes. He had 20 in the first half when the game was decided. He sat out the fourth quarter, along with the rest of the Cleveland starters. The Cavaliers led 83-52 after three periods.\n\u201cIt was a fun game for us,\u201d Cavaliers coach David Blatt said. \u201cIt felt good, to have the first unit cheering on the second unit in a happy and fun way finally in the fourth quarter. It\u2019s been awhile since we had a game like that.\u201d\nThe Magic (12-11) never challenged for the lead after Cleveland scored the game\u2019s first five points. It was the Magic\u2019s worst loss this season, eclipsing the 14-point defeat in Cleveland in November.\n\u201cThat\u2019s a great team. They were ready and they basically just toyed with us,\u201d Magic coach Scott Skiles said.\n\u201cThings were out of hand a minute into the game. They got out of hand real quick.\u201d\nCavaliers guard Iman Shumpert made his season debut and looked sharp. He hit five of seven shots for 14 points in 24 minutes. The Cavaliers were without starter J.R. Smith, who remained in Cleveland with a flu-like illness.\nThey still are without point guard Kyrie Irving, but they looked plenty good enough against the Magic.\nThe Magic got 14 points from Nikola Vucevic, their only starter to reach double figures. Rookie reserve Mario Hezonja had 12 points. No one else scored more than nine.\n\u201cIt was pretty embarrassing to lose like this,\u201d Vucevic said. \u201cThis one was just pretty bad. It was a blowout, and that\u2019s not something we\u2019re proud of. Against a team like Cleveland, you have to bring it all.\u201d\nCleveland shot 56.9 percent from the field (41 of 72) and outrebounded the Magic, 45-30.",

        "title": "RGA Members Sue Greece Over Online Gambling License Delay | Online Gambling News",
        "raw_content": "RGA members file suit against Greece for slowrolling online gambling applications\nTAGs: Betfair, clive hawkswood, emma delta, greece, OPAP, remote gambling association, William Hill\nTwo unidentified members of the Remote Gambling Association (RGA) have launched legal proceedings against the Greek government for allegedly slowrolling their online gambling license applications in order to ensure a decent price for the sale of the government\u2019s stake in the OPAP betting monopoly. In July, the two unnamed companies filed online gambling applications with the Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC) and the Minister of Finance, only to have the HGC claim not to be the proper government agency responsible for such matters, while the Minister failed to respond at all within the timeline dictated by Greek law.\nAlthough the RGA declined to specify which two of its members were filing the complaint, Betfair and William Hill had announced in July that they\u2019d filed their online gambling applications with the Greek authorities. The RGA maintains that the two Greek bodies cited in the complaint were competent authorities with the power to handle the applications, raising suspicions as to the true motive behind the bureaucratic delay.\nIn 2011, Greece issued two-dozen temporary licenses to online gambling firms, but these licenses were revoked in November 2012. A month later, Greece announced it would extend OPAP\u2019s online monopoly on sports betting and random number generator games until 2020. The European Court of Justice declared this plan to be illegal, leading Greece to submit a revised plan, which the European Commission bigwigs are still mulling. Greece was notably absent from a recent EC missive chastising other state monopolies over their anti-competitive policies.\nGreece had been more or less ordered to sell off its 33% stake in OPAP and other state assets to help repay the \u20ac240b bailout it received in 2010 via the European Union and the International Monetary Fund. The RGA has long held the position that Greece\u2019s efforts to preserve the online gambling market as a one-stop shop as long as possible was due to its desire to fetch the best possible price for the asset sale. The \u20ac652m sale to the Emma Delta consortium was announced in May but not finalized until August.\nRGA CEO Clive Hawkswood suggested the Greek government\u2019s actions have left it open to compensation claims not only from online operators unfairly shut out of the market, but also from OPAP investors, \u201cto the extent that they may have been led to believe that OPAP did have a monopoly.\u201d Hawkswood also accused the Greek government of short-term thinking, noting that an online market with lots of licensed companies would have ensured healthy tax revenue for the cash-strapped country\u2019s coffers, rather than increased government expenditure on unnecessary court proceedings.",

Three per cent of diagnoses of cancer are incorrect.\n\u201cYou need to have a terminal illness with death within six months, and there are many examples in Oregon (which has legalised euthanasia) of which death is longer than six months.\u201d\nNZMA \u201cwholeheartedly\u201d supported patient autonomy, which included the right for patients to refuse treatment, or ask for treatment to be withheld.\n\u201cWe also believe in the right of the administration of\u2026 pain relief and other medications, for the purpose of relieving pain and suffering, even if the secondary consequence of that treatment may hasten death,\u201d Child said.\nPrevious postLegalising assisted dying is dangerous for disabled people.

        "raw_content": "In the woods, all the time, I think about sex. Sex sex sex. Nothing in the woods is sex. The sticks, the moss, the river, which runs clear again, over the stones. The stones are big and flat and smooth. The water is magic-colored, green-blue. When the sun is out people get in the river, naked, and dunk, fast, and then lie on the stones. The air dries them, and then it begins to rain. Summer will never come. I must accept it! Summer will never come.\nI thought about sex last night, lying in bed, on my back, listening to the tap of rain on tarpaulin, hands folded on my small knitted bear. There was nowhere to go with it, nothing to do. There is no sex in the woods. Hippies are straight, they have no genitals. They reproduce during maypole ceremonies and by giving each other backrubs. For fun they drop acid and dance un-self-consciously to electronic music. They are as na\u00efve about sex as an animated disney movie.\nMaybe that\u2019s why I can\u2019t stop thinking about it.\nInstead of having sex, I walk in the woods. I pretend that the trail goes someplace fantastical or that I\u2019m lost. I follow the patches of light. I take off my shoes and walk barefoot. I pause on log-bridges and toss small sticks into the river. \u201cstick-boat!\u201d I shout. I pretend the stick is me, and I\u2019ve fallen into the river. I want to see what will happen, if my head will get bashed against the rocks or if I\u2019ll float pleasantly to a shallow place. I stop and pee in the middle of the trail. I sit on the moss. I sit on logs. I swing my legs. A fat chocolate lab comes running out of the ether, and lets me pet it for just a moment before running on. An apologetic human comes along soon after, panting, with a camelback and a suntan. The human apologizes and disappears.\nThe trail always goes the same direction. Back to the hippies. Back to minimum wage and pretending I know how to bake bread. I\u2019ve grown used to the hippies, tho. They no longer startle me and I find them more intelligent and interesting than I used to. I still don\u2019t want to go to their parties, where they listen to music I don\u2019t like and talk loudly about television shows and old horror movies. The women aren\u2019t friendly to each other, and I find this intolerable. There are a few hippie Lesbians that work here. I\u2019m not sure what hippie Lesbians do for fun, except brush each others\u2019 hair and partner yoga. I\u2019m probably over-simplifying. I\u2019m probably an asshole. God help me.\nhotsprings 2010, Living in the woods\n\u2190 if you do not remember the password to my protected posts!\nOne thought on \u201call the time\u201d\nA.M.

Endlessly. But I cannot give up arguing the topic, when I feel there is something that doesn\u2019t quite fit in the general explanation.\nWe have all heard until we got fed up, that people (any people, Spanish, Greek, Irish, Portuguese, Argentinian), are to blame for behaving irresponsibly by taking debts and loans far beyond each one\u2019s income possibilities. That we should have all thought well, before signing off with the bank. I will therefore accept, for the moment, this explanation.\nResponsibility means being aware of the consequences of any of your acts, and so, facing them when they come. To me \u2013 and please correct me if I\u2019m wrong \u2013 we, ordinary people, are already paying in a quite expensive fashion, our daring, our lack of wisdom. Being it losing homes, jobs, delaying marriage, postponing having kids, losing perspective and illusion on the future. Continue reading \u2192\nPolitics and Internet\nPosted in Culture, politics, Society, Technology with tags Accountability, Citizenship, Civil rights, Democracy, Elections, Freedom, Interaction, Internet, Politicians, Presidency, Society on 23/04/2011 by Living out of Eden\n(Image borrowed from \u201cLife Examinations\u201d blog)\nSame as in other fields, Internet is by far more enabling, than the way it\u2019s currently being used.\nAlthough Modern Movement developed its philosophy based in already existing materials, social structure and imagery, it exceeded by far the expectations of its time. In fact, there are examples that \u201clook\u201d modern even today, after more than 80 years.\nHowever, being \u201cavant-garde\u201d (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avant-garde) is much more about innovation, than invention. It doesn\u2019t bring creation out of nothing (although Modern Movement claimed a \u201ctabula-rasa\u201d status to be imperative as a starting point). It\u2019s a fact that not only Alvar Aalto, Mies van der Rohe or Walter Gropius based their designs on the background of traditional architecture, but even Le Corbusier proved to be more \u201ctraditional\u201d than he was considered to be.\nWhat I mean by this is that, even when we are being able to get access to it from our phones and it seems it has already flooded our everyday life, Internet is still today at a very primitive stage. There is much more ahead to explore than what has been already developed, and it is not a matter of new technologies but just to put our imagination to work and think all its potential still to be unveiled.",

        "raw_content": "You can buy CBD Oil in Brooks, Wisconsin today. This is composed of low-THC hemp, high-CBD, whereas medical marijuana products are generally constructed from plants which may have high psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentrations. Since hemp only contains trace amounts of THC, they may be non-psychoactive hemp oil products in Brooks, Adams County, WI.\nCannabis CBD Oil Instructions For People Living In Brooks, Wisconsin\nCannabidiol (CBD) is among one of over 85 cannabinoids that have been found to become contained inside of the cannabis plant and possesses another highest level of cannabinoid in marijuana following THC. However, in hemp, THC is there only in trace amounts, with CBD dominating the makeup from the plant. CBD is non-psychotropic and doesn\u2019t create a high. It interacts together with the body\u2019s natural systems. Which make it a less controversial as well as a safer option, while still providing significant benefits to people In Brooks, Adams County.\nWhy Must Cannabidiol CBD Oil Supplements Be Utilized In Brooks Adams County, WI?\nLately CBD has emerged as a compound that his highly preferred. After receiving quite a lot of media exposure, including the CNN special called \u201cWeed\u201d by Sanjay Gupta, it offers bought out the natural products industry. Since that period, CBD oil products have demostrated up in supermarkets in Brooks, Wisconsin, medical marijuana dispensaries and doctor\u2019s offices. No medical card is required to buy it.\nThe way that CBD interacts with your body is thru the endocannabinoid system or endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS). The endocannabinoid system was basically discovered in the late 1980\u2019s regulates the homeostasis of the body, or general balance state, which impacts functions for example immune response, pain, hormone regulation, appetite, sleep and mood. The same as an acrobat on a very high wire, our surrounding environment impacts our regular balance. This is certainly corrected from the endocannabinoid system by mediating the body\u2019s reaction so as to keep things level.\nThe endocannabinoid system is located in all mammals and is made up of an incredible number of various cannabinoid receptor sites which can be primarily found during the entire immunity mechanism (the CB2 receptors), nervous system (the CB1 receptors) and brain that act throughout the neural communication.\nThe endocannabinoid system, however, doesn\u2019t rely only on phytocannabinoids or plant-based cannabinoids. Your body could make its very own cannabinoids. 2-AG and Anandamide, which function inside a similar approach to CBD, will be the endocannabinoids of your body, that happen to be created so that you can control communication in the middle cells, to mediate the functions of your body.\nThe endocannabinoid system from Brooks, Wisconsin clearly is one of the human body\u2019s most essential regulatory systems.

        "raw_content": "Benamar Benatta\nBenamar Benatta outside of the Supreme Court after oral argument\nBenamar Benatta is a plaintiff in Ziglar v. Abbasi (formerly Turkmen v. Ashcroft), a lawsuit filed in 2002 on behalf of a class of Muslim, South Asian, and Arab non-citizens swept up in connection with the 9/11 investigation. From September 2001 to April 2002, Benamar was detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, New York, in harsh and punishing solitary confinement in the Administrative Maximum Special Housing Unit (ADMAX SHU). Like nearly a hundred other men, Benamar was detained as a \"terrorism suspect\" based solely on his race, religion, ethnicity, and immigration status, and abused in brutal detention conditions for the many months it took the FBI and CIA to clear him of any connection to terrorism.\nBenamar arrived in the U.S. on a non-immigrant visitor visa in December 2000. He travelled with the Algerian Air Force to receive aviation training and had planned to apply for political asylum in the U.S. before his visa expired. He decided to seek political asylum in Canada instead, and crossed the border with false documentation on September 5, 2001, to apply for refugee status. He was detained by Canadian authorities for investigation, and following the 9/11 attacks a few days later, Canadian authorities alerted the U.S. to his presence in Canada and transported him, against his will, back to the U.S. He was taken into custody by the INS and detained for several days at the Rainbow Bridge port of entry in Niagara Falls, New York, where he was interrogated about his false ID. The INS immediately initiated proceedings to deport Benamar from the U.S., and he was served with a notice to appear at immigration court in September. However, on September 16, 2001, just days before the scheduled hearing, he was transported to MDC in Brooklyn on a private jet, with no explanation.\nBenamar was one of the first detainees in the brand new ADMAX SHU. He was placed there without justification, denied access to the outside world, including an attorney, arbitrarily and abusively strip-searched, subjected to sleep deprivation and interference with his religious practice, denied basic personal items like soap and toilet paper, and deprived of adequate food.\n\"I wouldn't wish what I went through in detention on any human,\" Benamar said about his MDC detention. \"The light in my cell was on 24 hours a day. I was beaten on many occasions and tied to the bed in a manner that reminds me of the Dark Ages, and strip searched almost on a daily basis without any cause. I was paraded half naked outside my cell when I went on hunger strike to denounce my inhumane detention conditions.\"\nFor a while, Benamar's only connection to the outside world was a small window, but even that was taken away from him when the MDC officials painted over it as a way to punish him and the other detainees. The brutal conditions of confinement took a huge psychological toll on Benamar, yet he was kept in extreme isolation for months.\n\"The worst part was not the physical abuse but the mental abuse; something that will have deep impact on you for the rest of your life. Being labeled a terrorist and sitting there in your small cell without any distraction or reading material, and not knowing what will happen to you or where you will end up is the worst thing that can ever happen to a human being.\"\nBenamar was interrogated several times in MDC, yet neither the FBI nor the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) had any actual reason to suspect him of having a connection to terrorism or posing a danger. He was only held as a suspect because of his identity as a Muslim from Algeria. In November 2001, he was officially cleared of any connection to terrorism, yet he remained in solitary confinement until April 30, 2002, when he was transferred to general population. On September 12, 2002, a U.S. magistrate judge recommended dismissal of several pending criminal counts against him\u2014possession of a false social security card and immigration document\u2014holding that his detention in MDC was criminal in nature and violated his Sixth Amendment right to a speedy trial.\nBecause he feared returning to Algeria, Benamar remained in immigration detention for five years while he continued to seek political asylum. He was transferred to Canadian custody in 2006 and sought refugee status there, which was granted in 2007.\n\"Many people think that the ordeal is over when you are released from detention, but that's actually when things get worse. You try very hard to get your life back, and you are faced with new challenges that were created by detention, and you realize that life as you knew it before is no longer attainable.\"\nTo this day, Benamar struggles to put his life back together. Despite the fact that he graduated with a masters degree from the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies, he has been unable to secure a job in the aerospace industry because he couldn't pass the security check or provide a reasonable explanation for the five years missing from his resume. \"Imagine preparing and going through various phases of a job interview only to be turned down for reasons that are beyond your control,\" he explained. His detention may be over, but its effects, including the stigma of having been mislabeled a terrorist, have persisted.\nIn January 2017, Benamar returned to the United States for the first time since his ordeal. \"I cannot put into words the overwhelming emotions that I felt when I landed at Dulles Airport and how the good memories kept flooding back during my trip from the airport to my hotel. I used to take similar trips during the weekends when I lived in Alexandria,\" he recalls. It was during one of those trips that Benamar had visited the Supreme Court as a tourist. On January 18, 2017, he returned once again as the Court heard oral argument in his case, nearly fifteen years after it was filed. \"Considering the current political climate, I can't think of any better time for this case to be decided by the Supreme Court,\" Benamar said. \"Unless those leaders, those high-level officials are called to account, nothing will prevent those same policies from being adopted with the stroke of a pen.\"\nWhat is Ziglar v. Abbasi?\nAfter Trump's executive orders making national policy out of anti-Muslim hate, our Supreme Court case Ziglar v. Abbasi (changed from Turkmen v. Ashcroft in November 2016) could not be more timely or...",

        "raw_content": "Interview: Judy Baar Topinka\nShe's the woman who could have been Governor. But in 2006, Judy Baar Topinka, longtime Illinois politician and State Treasurer under Jim Edgar and the not-convicted-yet George Ryan, was defeated in the Gubernatorial race by incumbent Rod Blagojevich. And just look where that's gotten us. While most of our day-to-day political thoughts right now are focused on the presidential election, we're also in the beginning of the race for Illinois Governor in 2010. So what does Topinka think about how the state is being run? No surprise here - she isn't much of a fan of Blago - but what about beyond that? Who's going to step up for the Republican party in two years? Who's going to try to replace G-Rod in the Democratic party? And is there any shot at getting him removed before 2010? All these answers after the jump.\nChicagoist: When someone wins a gubernatorial race, all the focus is on the victor and what their plans are for the near future \u2026 I wonder, what\u2019s it like the morning after one loses a statewide election like the one you raced in?\nJudy Baar Topinka: Well, needless to say, one is disappointed. And one is disappointed probably more so than on an ego level \u2013 I mean, there\u2019s a wound on that front for sure \u2013 but nevertheless, the sad part is [that] you look at the woulda-coulda-shouldas. Which are all the woulda-coulda-shouldas we could have done for the state. Because we had really put together a program for all the access that the state would have to go through.\nIt was a very well thought out campaign. And it was a straight-up, by the rules, clean campaign. The money was clean. I mean, I\u2019m not \u201cpublic official A.\u201d It\u2019s a little distressing to lose to someone who is being investigated by the Feds on a regular basis, whose name you see being brought up every day in the Rezko trial, and things of that sort. But you have to go on, and you just hope for the best, and you hope that some of your ideas will be usable, and that people will go forward with them.\nC: Blue-sky a bit for me: how do you think the state would be different if you had won?\nJBT: I don\u2019t think we\u2019d be seeing this deadlock down in the state, where you\u2019ve got no one talking to anybody, and as a result nothing happening. No one would have had a question in terms of trusting me, because my word is always good. I always worked with the legislature \u2013 the legislative leaders would not be balking at talks with me or meeting with me. The problems, obviously, would be the same, but we would be working on them. And we\u2019d be getting solutions to them, because there would be the trust factor among everyone who was involved. And that is so basic.\nNot to mention that I\u2019d be living in the mansion. I would be around the legislature on a regular basis. There would have been probably no special sessions. Because we would have just gotten the job done, because we know what the job is that has to be done, and that would have gotten done.\nC: In retrospect, would you have done anything different in your campaign?\nJBT: No. Absolutely not. Ran straight up, ran on the issues, ran on the facts, ran with programs, ran with how we were going to do it and how to make it happen, made those programs public, never ducked. No, I would do it exactly the same.\nC: During the \u201906 campaign, there seemed to be a real \u201cAnyone but Ryan\u201d feeling and by proxy a real \u201cAnyone but a Republican\u201d feeling around the state. Now that there's a tangible \u201cAnyone but Rod\u201d mindset nowadays, are you considering jumping back in and running again?\nJBT: Nothing is ever a \u201cno\u201d as far as politics goes, but more than likely not. I think I had that run, and I think I did a good job, and laid some good groundwork for someone to build on. That particular election was very much involving George Ryan, anti-Republican \u2013 there was not a Republican who won anywhere! Nationally! Even in the Watergate years, Republicans did break through and win certain elections. But here, they did not. There were none. And as a result, it\u2019s kinda sad, because you really need a two-party system to keep everybody honest.\nC: If you\u2019re not planning a run, who do you think is the Great Hope of the Republican Party in Illinois in 2010? Is it a Bill Brady? A Christine Radogno? Maybe a Joe Birkett?\nJBT: All of those folks are probably considering running. They\u2019re all very fine people. Dan Rutherford is also showing some signs of interest, Ron Gidwitz again showing interest, you never know if Jim Oberweis will come out of the woodwork again. We have good people who are there\u2026obviously after this last election, it\u2019s has been proven \u2013 at least to me \u2013 that it\u2019s not about character, it\u2019s not about integrity, and it\u2019s not about good management skills or anything like that. It\u2019s all about money. And that\u2019s sad, because I think it undermines democracy, and it also pulls the plug out on folks who would be meritorious and who would do a good job.\nAll those folks are very, very good \u2013 all of them would have to make sure that they\u2019ve got millions of dollars. I lost with 27 million dollars tossed at me. And those are dollars that we hear about at the Rezko trial from a lot of people. But the damage has been done. Whether they were tainted, whether they were got through ill means, they were used. They were there at the appointed time, they got Blagojevich elected, and now we\u2019re stuck with him. And we are stuck with him \u2013 I\u2019m not saying anything that anyone else isn\u2019t saying.\nC: Give me a Judy Baar Topinka Cliff\u2019s Notes-style rundown of some of the candidates on the Democratic side, starting with Lisa Madigan.\nJBT: Lisa\u2019s very, very good at what she does. I think people sometimes beat on her because her father [Michael Madigan is] the Speaker [of the of the Illinois House of Representatives]. She seems good in her own right. Of course, it doesn\u2019t hurt to have your father as the Speaker either. She will probably be running, I hear Bill Daley\u2019s name \u2013 he\u2019s got a very nice [resume] as well.\nYou\u2019ll see all the constitutional officers \u2013 Dan Hines, Alexi Giannoulias, they seem very restless where they are, and would like to move forward. You\u2019re going to see a lot of activity over on the Democrat side. They are kinda fed up with Rod Blagojevich and you see that on a daily basis. There\u2019ll be a lot of Democrats trying to take out one of their own.\nC: Do you see Pat Quinn as governor before 2010?\nJBT: It\u2019s always a possibility. He certainly has distanced himself from Blagojevich to prove that he is different, and frankly, he is different. Blagojevich doesn\u2019t talk to him or include him any of his doings. But whether or not Blagojevich will be indicted and convicted \u2013 because you can be in office and be indicted, you have to be convicted before you\u2019re out \u2013 any efforts to do a recall, to move an amendment like that to the Constitution was bottled up by Blagojevich\u2019s little friend, the President of the Senate, Emil Jones, so that didn\u2019t work.\nThe only option you have now to get rid of him, other than a heads-up straight up election, is a constitutional convention. It will be on the ballot in November. It is being opposed by all the entrenched powers. I would encourage everyone to vote \u201cyes.\u201d It is time for a Constitutional Convention, it is time for some major house cleaning in this state.\nC: Most people probably think of you as a politician first, but your background is really in journalism. How do you think that\u2019s affected how you dealt with the press in your campaigns and your public life?\nJBT: I think it\u2019s kinda neat to have a journalism background first, then go into politics. Do your journalism first, do your reporting first, then do your politics, rather than the other way around as so often times is what we see. Because it makes you sharper in what you ask, and what you see, which is the who, what, when, where, why and how. You ask questions. And that\u2019s very healthy in what could very easily be a closed political system. And you see it in Cook County government, which is just another disaster. You see it in the state of Illinois \u2013 closed system \u2013 disaster.\nAlso, I think you respect what reporters do. You respect the fact that they have a time deadline. You have to be there on time. Blagojevich is traditionally, discourteously late. I mean, upwards of hours. You just don\u2019t do that to people who have deadlines. That really just makes them sick. So you don\u2019t do that. And you respect the fact that they\u2019re out there to try to get facts. So give them facts! Don\u2019t just dance around things, give them facts to the best of your knowledge! I think it\u2019s been very helpful.\nC: You're a fairly vocal person - do you ever just scream at newscasts nowadays when you see all the coverage of what\u2019s going on in the state?\nJBT: Oh, I do, and I do when I read the paper\u2026I find it upsetting and heartbreaking to me to watch something I\u2019ve taken a lot of time with \u2013 over 26 years \u2013 and I think it\u2019s a good run. As one reporter told me, \u201cHey \u2013 you\u2019re the only one not going to jail!\u201d So I mean, that says something right there. We did not have a scandalous background here. The house service has been good, the Senate service has been good, the treasurer\u2019s service \u2013 we made one of the foremost treasurer\u2019s offices in the United States, and it was clean, and it was noteworthy, and it was progressive \u2013 and it played by the rules. When you see all of that and juxtapose it against what you see on a daily basis, everybody should be heartbroken. Because it makes our state look terrible.\nIt\u2019s embarrassing when you go outside of the state and people ask about it, and you\u2019re embarrassed to be from here. You\u2019re embarrassed to be from Cook County, when people call it Crook County \u2013 when you look at the State of Illinois with it now in such a muck like Louisiana or New Jersey, both of which have very bad reputations. Illinois should be better! It\u2019s the Land of Lincoln, for god\u2019s sakes! We should have something that we can hang our hat on, and say \u201cboy, are we good.\u201d We\u2019re a big state, we\u2019re a prominent state, and we can\u2019t do that. And it\u2019s just embarrassing. And I do feel bad about it.\nalexi giannouliasbill bradybill daleychristine radognodan hinesdan rutherfordemil jonesillinois politicsjim oberweisjoe birkettjudy baar topinkalisa madiganmichael madiganrod blagojevich",

Most of New York\u2019s power currently comes from nuclear and natural gas.\nNew York is improving the often contentious relationship between renewables and utilities with its Reforming the Energy Vision (REV) program.\nThe state has installed wind capacity of 1,749 MW, ranking 13th across the country and amounting to enough to power 364,000 homes.\nNew York has 638 MW of installed solar capacity, employing over 8,000 people and providing enough energy for over 100,000 homes.\nThe state is not a party to the lawsuit against the Clean Power Plan, and Governor Cuomo has issued statements supporting the rule.\nNew York is Vulnerable to Climate Change:\nThe Northeast region is susceptible to extreme heat events, increased rainfall and flooding, and sea level rise. While the region currently only experiences two or three days a year with temperatures over 95 degrees F, that number could rise as high as 57 days by 2100.\nUnless we reduce emissions, the sea levels around New York City will rise about a foot by 2050 and as much as four feet by 2100. As the $32 billion cost of Sandy demonstrated, a strong storm combined with higher sea levels means big problems for the city and the state.\nNearly 10 percent of New York adults suffer from asthma, with Bronx County standing out with some of the highest asthma rates in the country at 20 percent. High levels of ground-level ozone and fine particulate matter common in coal plant emissions, both of which are produced in tandem with other greenhouse gases, are strongly linked to a rise in asthma attacks.\nPrevious ArticleUnderstanding February\u2019s Temperature JumpNext ArticleHistoric Houston Floods Bear Classic Climate Signature",

Through semistructured interviews in rural Peru with people affected by three infectious and noninfectious chronic conditions (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and neurocysticercosis), their relatives, and focus group discussions with community members, we analyzed their perspectives on the value of food and the challenges of dietary changes due to medical diagnosis. The findings show the various ways in which people from rural northern Peru conceptualize good (buena alimentaci\u00f3n) and bad (mala alimentaci\u00f3n) food, and that food choices are based on life-long learning, experience, exposure, and availability. In the context of poverty, required changes are not only related to what people recognize as healthy food, such as fruits and vegetables, but also of work, family, trust, taste, as well as affordability and accessibility of foods. In this paper we discuss the complexity of introducing dietary changes in poor rural communities whose perspectives on food are poorly understood and rarely taken into consideration by health professionals when promoting behavior change.

        "raw_content": "As the population and demand for housing in Seattle has increased over the past decade, outlying communities and suburbs have become popular destinations for families, couples, and individuals seeking affordable housing. Apartment living has always offered an ideal balance of amenities and convenience, but renting has also become a more affordable option for thousands of families in the Seattle region.\nIf you\u2019re seeking a new home in Seattle, you may find it beneficial to understand the current housing prices in Seattle, as well as those in suburbs and nearby towns like Everett.\nHousing Statistics in Everett, Washington & the Surrounding Communities\nThe U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S> Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regularly release statistics on the nationwide housing market, as well as statistics for major metropolitan areas. In their September 2017 report, the agencies counted 1,300,00 building permits, 1,180,000 housing starts, and 1,075,000 housing completions.\nThese numbers represent an overall, increasing trend for the past several years. In 2012, which was only a short time into the economic recovery, the nation was only seeing around 600,000 houses completed and slightly more housing starts. For statistics in the West, the government counted 199,000 single-family permits requested and 362,000 permits overall for the region.\nMeanwhile, the Seattle Department of Construction & Inspections counted a total of 880 permits for the Seattle area totaling $437,591,706 worth of work. Although the total might appear impressive, the number of people interested in finding housing in Seattle has remained far above the number of available housing units under construction, on the market, and recently completed.\nHousing and Apartment Costs in Everett, Washington\nOne of the reasons families choose Everett for their new home is because of the savings on rent gained by living north of the metropolitan area. According to Rent Jungle, the average price of a one-bedroom apartment in Everett was $1,228, and the average price of a two-bedroom apartment was $1,417. Overall, the average price of an apartment was $1,374 in Everett.\nThese prices represent an upward trend in rental costs that have been slowly increasing since 2011. Although prices for rent did fall somewhat in the middle of 2011, it wasn\u2019t long before average prices began climbing again in 2012. Since that time, rental costs have been climbing, but they haven\u2019t been on the same meteoric rise as the rental prices seen in downtown Seattle.\nWithin the city of Seattle, apartment prices have risen far beyond those seen in Everett. On average, prices for apartments in Seattle have hovered around $2,195 while the average for a 2-bedroom apartment in Seattle has reached $2,763. Due to these rising rental rates, many families have chosen locales like Everett and other towns outside of Seattle for greater affordability in cost-of-living expenditures.\nAffordable & Contemporary Living at Colby Creek\nYou won\u2019t need to compromise on any facet of your apartment search when you choose Colby Creek as your home in Everett. Not only do we offer upscale features like washer and dryer units, outside storage, and large apartment homes, but we also provide a spotless and contemporary environment in which to live.\nWhether you\u2019re moving to Everett with your family, your significant other, or are seeking your own residence for the very first time, we have an apartment home to suit your needs. Contact us today to set up a time to visit and to take a tour of our idyllic apartment community in Everett.",

Also, private and smaller colleges I had students at or worked with in some way included Wittenberg, Kenyon, George Washington, Adelphi, Hofstra, Carnegie-Mellon, Fairleigh-Dickinson, Columbia Chicago, Fordham, Loyola Chicago, UNC Greensboro, as well as the Community College of Denver and Holyoke Community College. Many of these students were failing in college, but reached out for help.\nI want to say good job to all the students I worked with. Each worked hard and earned credits for many classes. I want to extend special congratulations to Alex, who earned a 3.0 GPA, and Brendan, who earned a 3.23 GPA during the full-time spring semester, both representing strong turn arounds of their performance. I also want to congratulate the high school juniors and seniors in Chicago, Pittsburgh, Ohio, and the D.C. area that I worked with to find and plan for college, and to also say congratulations on graduation.\nI want to thank all the parents I worked with during this spring term, in the areas of Pennsylvania, southern California, D.C., Georgia, Virginia, Ohio, Massachusetts, Illinois, and those who contacted me from many other areas.\nSpecial thanks to Darshan Shah at Fairleigh-Dickinson, Wendy McSparren in Pittsburgh, Dr. Eileen Gorry in Pittsburgh, Dr. Dan Monti in Pittsburgh, and the many other professionals I worked with during this semester. Best wishes for the summer session, and I look forward to a continued collaboration.",

The new level obscures noises that are lower in volume and reduces the disruptive impact of those that are higher by minimizing the degree of change perceived by listeners. Similarly, conversations are either entirely covered up or their intelligibility is reduced, improving speech privacy and decreasing the number of disruptions to occupants\u2019 concentration.\nOf course, when introducing a sound to a workplace or a healthcare facility, it is vital to ensure that it is as comfortable and unobtrusive as possible. Otherwise, it risks becoming a source of irritation and rather than helping to solve an acoustic problem, it becomes one itself\u2014as was the case with the original masking systems developed in the late 1960s, which used white noise generators.\nPhoto courtesy of K.R.

Prior to the ACA communities of color, who made up just over half of all residents, were three-quarters (74%) of California\u2019s uninsured.

The crime is most commonly associated with sex crimes involving minors. In some cases, child molestation may be interchanged by prosecutors with child sexual abuse charges.\nIf you have been accused of child molestation in Maryland, you need to seek strong and fearless criminal defense representation right away. James E. Crawford, Jr. & Associates and our Baltimore sex crimes lawyers are ready to stand by your side through thick and thin. We have a solid history of positive case results secured for our clients, even when they were accused of child molestation and child pornography crimes.\nSchedule a consultation today to learn more about how our law firm can help you.\nBehaviors or Actions That Can Misconstrued as Child Molestation\nMany child molestation claims are based on exaggerations, misunderstandings, and falsifications. This puts the defendant in an unfair position where they must protect themselves from a fantastical opposition that feels free to say whatever needs to be said to secure a conviction. As criminal defense lawyers in Baltimore with extensive experience with high-stakes cases, we are well aware of the tactics the prosecution may use against you, including how they may try to take an innocuous situation and present it as something criminal.\nExamples of actions that might be twisted into child molestation include:\nParent using spankings as discipline.\nTeacher grabbing ahold of a riotous child to protect other children.\nReligious figure speaking privately with a child at the child\u2019s request.\nAdult talking to a child using an online forum, such as social media or a video game.\nBaltimore may also charge statutory rape as child sexual abuse or child molestation, depending on the circumstances. Some prosecutors will intentionally file this charge instead of child molestation, knowing it is \u201csimpler\u201d to secure a conviction for it. This is just one of many ways that the criminal justice system can be stacked against the defendant. You should not put up with it.\nProtect Yourself from Undue Consequences Now \u2013 Call (443) 709-9999\nIf you are convicted of child molestation, you will likely be sentenced to a year or more in prison, pay thousands of dollars in fines, and be placed on a sex offender registry. All of these consequences together will surely destroy your reputation and personal life, possibly beyond repair. Get to work right now with your defense by contacting our Baltimore child molestation attorneys of James E. Crawford, Jr. & Associates.",

        "raw_content": "OPINION: England Hope For Triumph of Experience In Busy Summer\nCharlotte Edwards will be in the commentary box at Worcester, as England take on South Africa in the 1st of six ICC Championship matches to be played in England this summer.\nBut the former England captain could be forgiven for a certain sense of deja-vu as she looks out onto the ground at New Road \u2013 all bar one of the England\u2019s 14-player squad made their debuts under her or (in two cases) her predecessor Clare Connor. The \u201caverage\u201d England debut for this squad was in 2009 \u2013 almost 10 years ago.\nIt will soon be three years since Mark Robinson was appointed England coach, and just over two years since Edwards was metaphorically left alone in a room at Lords with a bottle of Scotch and a loaded revolver. In that time, Robinson has handed out five \u201cproper\u201d debuts, to Alex Hartley, Sophie Ecclestone, Alice Davidson-Richards, Katie George and Bryony Smith, one \u201cre-debut\u201d to Fran Wilson, and awarded a new \u201crookie\u201d contract to the so-far uncapped Freya Davies; but of these only Ecclestone will take the field today.\nOf course, there is plenty more cricket to be played this summer \u2013 a fast and furious T20 Tri-Series against South Africa and New Zealand will offer opportunities to bounce back, as England look to rotate with half an eye on the New Zealand ODI series to come.\nBut it does have to be a worry that while the Australians are bringing on the likes of Beth Mooney and Ash Gardner, the pathway doesn\u2019t appear \u2013 Ecclestone aside \u2013 to be producing the players they trust to go out there and score runs and take wickets for England.\nThat being said, this is still a very strong England team \u2013 the problem areas are mostly of the \u201cnice problem to have\u201d variety. Do you play Dani Hazell and Laura Marsh? What about Georgia Elwiss, who had a good game against South Africa for the Academy last week? Where do you bat Tammy Beaumont if Amy Jones opens with Danni Wyatt, which England seem to think might be the answer to Jones\u2019 issues (which are clearly 99% in her head)? And of course you\u2019d ideally want to fit in the ever-reliable Jenny Gunn, but where?\nMy guess is that England might go with:\nThis year will see no repeat of Pakistan 2016 \u2013 South Africa will be no pushover \u2013 though they will have breathed a sigh of relief that Laura Wolvaardt has decided for the moment to try to juggle cricket and medical school, because their batting can be as brittle as it can sometimes be brilliant without her indefatigability at the top of the order.\nNew Zealand will similarly push England hard, as you\u2019d expect from a team led by the best player in the world (Suzie Bates) who can afford to drop one of the most destructive batsmen in the world (Rachel Priest) for \u201creasons\u201d because when you\u2019ve got Amy Satterthwaite and Sophie Devine too, that\u2019s the kind of crazy thing you can do and still pull off the highest ODI score of all time against Ireland!\nSo\u2026 predictions? I think England will win more games than they\u2019ll lose this summer, but they won\u2019t have it all their own way.\nThe one certainty \u2013 for the neutrals, it should be a good one!\nOPINION: BBC Team Award Ends 30 Years Of Hurt For England Women\nThe BBC Sports Personality Team of the Year award finally went to England\u2019s women\u2019s cricket team last night, following their 2017 World Cup win, atoning for nearly 30 years of hurt after they lost out in controversial circumstances in 1993 and again (though less contentiously) in 2009.\nIn 1993 England won the World Cup after beating New Zealand at Lords; but Team of the Year went to England\u2019s men\u2019s rugby union squad, who had won nothing (they came 4th in the 5-Nations) amid allegations of a stitch-up related to the award of broadcasting rights for subsequent 5-Nations tournaments.\nIn 2009, England women again lifted the World Cup, winning the final versus New Zealand in Sydney, and also captured the World T20 crown, beating New Zealand (again) at Lords; but this time they missed-out to the men\u2019s cricket team, who admittedly had at least won something \u2013 a 2-1 home Ashes victory.\nThe award, which went to England\u2019s women\u2019s rugby team (also after a World Cup win) in 2014, shows perhaps that we are making progress; but the results of the individual (and most prestigious) Sports Personality of the Year award were a depressing snap back to reality \u2013 voted for by the public, Anya Shrubsole received just 15,000 votes (around 3% of the total); with the 4 nominated women all coming in the bottom 4 of votes cast.\nEngland have lost the Women\u2019s Ashes, and there can\u2019t be any excuses; but the gods were not on their side today. Heather Knight\u2019s wicket was a nightmare for all concerned, not least the umpires who gave her out, then not out, and then out again. Yes it is complicated but they are paid to know the laws, and Law 27.3 is pretty clear:\n\u201cThe wicket-keeper shall remain wholly behind the wicket at the striker\u2019s end from the moment the ball comes into play until a ball delivered by the bowler touches the bat or person of the striker or passes the wicket at the striker\u2019s end or the striker attempts a run.\u201d\n\u201cIn the event of the wicket-keeper contravening this Law, the striker\u2019s end umpire shall call and signal No ball as soon as applicable after the delivery of the ball.\u201d\nZooming-in on the moment the ball hit the bat, it is pretty clear that Healy\u2019s gloves are marginally ahead of the wicket.\nZoom-in on Healy's gloves at the moment the ball hit the bat \u2013 they are very marginally in front. pic.twitter.com/HDbdry51sB\nYes, it is \u201cmarginal\u201d but the 3rd umpire has a high-definition camera perfectly positioned to make these kinds of decisions, so you can only assume he didn\u2019t know the law, which is\u2026 not great, to be honest.\nWyatt Earp \u2013 the romanticised hero of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral \u2013 was in real-life a reckless gambler who was always looking to make a fast buck. Danni Wyatt on the other hand\u2026 Well, joking aside, she can actually play big, sensible innings \u2013 we\u2019ve seen it at county. But for England in the T20 format her role has always been to chase fast runs; and a career strike rate of over 100 attests that she has actually been quite successful in that regard \u2013 never more so than today when her 50 off 36 balls got England to a position where the game was defendable.\nBark At The Mooney\nIt was a defendable target, but ultimately not even the Prince of Darkness himself could have stopped Beth Mooney today \u2013 she pushed on well past 50, maintaining a Strike Rate of 150 which saw Australia win the game by a country mile. Of course, Meg Lanning will be straight back into the team as soon as she is fit again, but with so many different Aussie batsmen standing up at different times in this series, it might be a close call if she wasn\u2019t the captain!\nHeather Is Human\nHeather Knight\u2019s \u201cgame-face\u201d never slips in front of the media, but it did today in the post-match interviews \u2013 for once you could see how much it really mattered to her, and I don\u2019t think it will do too much harm for people to know that there really is a human under that implacable mask. It hasn\u2019t been the Women\u2019s Ashes result she (or we) wanted, but she\u2019ll be back\u2026 and so will England!\nOPINION: Women\u2019s Ashes Test \u2013 England Beaten By Perry, Not The Pitch\nFollowing the drawn Women\u2019s Ashes Test in Sydney, England coach Mark Robinson talked a lot about the pitch in his post-match interviews:\n\u201cWe want to play on better wickets,\u201d he said. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t a fresh wicket [and] fresh wickets make such a difference.\u201d He then went on to draw a contrast between Coffs Harbour, where England won the 3rd ODI \u2013 \u201ca great wicket [with] bounce and carry\u201d \u2013 and North Sydney Oval where \u201cthe bowlers ran in hard [but] in the end, the wicket beat us.\u201d\nHis comments have been echoed by many in the media, with for example Charlotte Edwards tweeting \u201cpitches need to be looked at moving forward\u201d.\nBut was the pitch that bad? Or was it just that one batsman was that good?\nEllyse Perry\u2019s monumental innings \u2013 which Robinson rightly praised as \u201csomething special\u201d \u2013 was 213 off 374 balls. If Perry had \u201conly\u201d scored a hundred, rather than a double, this would still have been by some way the biggest innings in the game. But Australia would have posted a lead of only around 50 and there would also have been an additional 70-odd overs in the match, if you include the overs \u201clost\u201d in the final session when they called it quits.\nUnder those circumstances, England could (and likely would) have taken a few more risks to bat themselves into a position where they could have declared, with either result then still a genuine possibility.\nIt\u2019s all \u201cifs and buts\u201d of course \u2013 it is true that there have been better pitches, and maybe we need to also look at having more \u201cnew balls\u201d in pink-ball Tests; but in all honestly England were not beaten by the pitch \u2013 they were of course not beaten at all \u2013 but if they were beaten by anything, they were beaten by Ellyse Perry, not the pitch.\nRandom Thoughts \u2013 Women\u2019s Ashes Test \u2013 Day 3\nThe day England lost the Ashes?\nEngland can\u2019t now win this Test \u2013 that much was apparent even before the third session of the day began. Their best hope now is to hang on for the draw, but that means that in order to win the series, they\u2019ll have to go on and win all 3 T20s, which is a big ask.\nGiven that England \u201cwon\u201d day 2, and had set themselves up nicely with some late wickets falling last night, that\u2019s quite a disappointing result.\n\u2026 or the day Australia won them?\nHaving said that, did England do a lot wrong today? The ball wasn\u2019t doing much, the pitch wasn\u2019t doing much, and Australia just didn\u2019t give them many chances. That was always the worry \u2013 Australia\u2019s batting order is like waiting for a bus \u2013 you get one wicket and then two more world-class batsmen come to the crease!\nPeople often seem to forget that at Canterbury in 2015, for example, England actually had Australia 99-5 \u2013 then Jess Jonassen walked in\u2026 and they ended up racking up 274-9! It was a similar story today.\nWomen's Ashes Test \u2013 1st Innings pic.twitter.com/dB2AwhZ9F4\nSyd\u2019s Worms [Ed: he really needs to go to the doctor\u2019s about that] make the point pretty clearly: it wasn\u2019t that Australia were ahead of the eight-ball the whole way through \u2013 they just bat longer than England, and in Tests, that\u2019s crucial.\nIt\u2019s looking more and more, in fact, like England really lost this match during the last session of the first day, with the mini-collapse where they lost those 3 wickets for 13 runs. That stat about 280 being a good 1st innings score in a women\u2019s Test is actually quite an illusive one \u2013 the game has come on so much, even since that last Test in 2015, that I always had an inkling that 280 wasn\u2019t going to be enough to put England into a winning position. Once again, for England, it\u2019s the batting that\u2019s been the real issue, not the bowling.\nThere really isn\u2019t much to say, is there? The craziest stat in cricket is that Ellyse Perry had never made an international century before today. But when Perry gets it right, she is unrivalled. She didn\u2019t offer a single chance in the first 100 runs. There was barely a chance in the second.\nIt makes it even more poignant, in a way, that she might not get very many more opportunities in her career to bat with that level of depth, concentration and duration. The ICC don\u2019t think Tests matter \u2013 they think people don\u2019t care about women\u2019s Test cricket.\nThe reactions today; the cheering of every dot ball that Megan Schutt faced while Perry was on 199* at the other end; Perry\u2019s response (twice!) to hitting her 200th run \u2013 it matters. Please take note, ICC.\nCan England survive?\nThey\u2019ve made a decent start by not losing any wickets before the close, but if they\u2019re going to save the game from here then England need to bat out at least two sessions tomorrow. The best advice Mark Robinson can give to his players is to play their natural game \u2013 going into their shells isn\u2019t going to do anyone any favours (it didn\u2019t work at Canterbury!) They definitely have the capability \u2013 it\u2019s going to come down to whether they have the mental toughness to see it out.\nTwo-Hundred-And-Eighhhhhhhhhty?\nWord from inside the England camp is that they were pretty happy with their 1st innings total of 280 \u2013 in the entire history of women\u2019s Tests, only one side has ever lost after posting a higher 1st innings total \u2013 New Zealand, back in 1969. [That\u2019s so long ago it\u2019s before you were born\u2026 just sayin\u2019 \u2013 Ed.]\nHowever, England have to have been a bit disappointed that it wasn\u2019t a few more \u2013 no blame on the tail this morning, more on the batsmen who didn\u2019t push on yesterday.\nBut having now seen the Aussies bat, it is clear that maybe this pitch isn\u2019t the road everyone thought it was, as it has actually been England who have set the pace, as the worm shows:\nAustralia have caught up a bit as Perry has started to rev the engine. Can England haul them back with the new ball? pic.twitter.com/AkTA8DkAi6\n\ud83c\udfb5 Walking In A Perry Wonderland \ud83c\udfb5\n(Yes\u2026 it is stuck in my head \u2013 and if it wasn\u2019t stuck in yours before\u2026 it is now!!)\nAs the chart also shows, Ellyse Perry is the key player for Australia \u2013 they only started to catch up with the run rate when she got motoring in the period leading up to the new ball. England need to get her out not once, but twice, to win this Test match \u2013 that\u2019s the key challenge \u2013 if they can do that, they will be in with a shout.\nAussies Under Marshal Law\nLaura Marsh was exceptional today \u2013 bowling at the left-handers at the top of the innings, she got into a trance-like rhythm, and then just kept it there \u2013 tick-tocking through 23 overs for just 28 runs.\nBowling props also to Sophie Ecclestone (2-51) and Georgia Elwiss. (In fact, given her figures \u2013 5 overs, 2 maidens, 0-7 \u2013 I\u2019m surprised Heather Knight didn\u2019t find a few more overs for Elwiss, with Nat Sciver not really looking like she was troubling the Australians too much.)\nA Tail To Tell Tomorrow?\nEngland need just one more wicket tomorrow morning and they are into the tail, with the Aussies still currently over 100 behind. Admittedly it is a tail that includes Jess Jonassen (99 in the last Test) and Amanda Wellington (116 just the other week for South Australia in the WNCL) but if England can grab almost any first-innings lead they will rightly be pretty chuffed with that, and they will certainly be the ones sleeping easier tonight after having a winning day today.",

        "raw_content": "What is the Tao?\nFor centuries men have deliberated on the meaning of the \u201cTao\u201d. Tao (\u9053, pinyin: d\u00e0o), the word itself is simply translated as the 'way', \u2018road\u2019, 'path', \u2018method\u2019, \u2018model\u2019, 'route', \u2018the course of nature\u2019 or \u2018the force\u2019. The Tao is said to embody all things and is the source of life for all things. It is the origin of the universe, it is wu-ji, it is not a deity or a god, it is the limitless.\nThe Tao cannot be described in words, it is nameless and invisible as exemplified in the opening chapter of the Tao Te Ching:\n\u201cThe Tao that can be named is not the eternal Tao.\nThe Tao, is ungraspable by normal modes of perception.\n\u201cLook, it cannot be seen \u2013 it is beyond form.\nListen, it cannot be heard \u2013 it is beyond sound.\nGrasp, it cannot be held \u2013 it is intangible.\u201d\nThe human language can only give hints that may help the mind to form an idea of what the Tao may be. Only an enlightened being can experience the \u2018true\u2019 Tao; Master Tseng experientially says \u201cyou understand the Tao only when you become a true Dragon\u201d, the mystery of the Tao is only then revealed in its totality.\nWe cannot describe it, but we can live it: For a practitioner, the Tao is a system of guidance. Through the 81 chapters of the Tao te Ching, \u2018the book of virtue\u2019, we are given guidelines on living true to our original nature; being kind, simple, merciful and forgiving. The Tao te Ching emphasis the importance of detachment, stillness and physical qi cultivation practices. It is a blueprint for transforming one into sage hood, with the ultimate goal of immortality.\nWater is the symbolic flow of the Tao; exhibiting the interconnected and interdependent yin and yang concept, it embodies both softness and hardness. The Tao is mindful spontaneity and detachment, it is in its true essence \u201cgo, go go!\u201d.\nKristina Naldjian",

        "title": "Exclusive interview: Commvault on GDPR, data analytics & virtualization - DataCenterNews Asia",
        "raw_content": "Exclusive interview: Commvault on GDPR, data analytics & virtualization\nCommvault is a humble company, says the organization\u2019s vice president and managing director of Australia and New Zealand, Dan Kieran.\nAnd that was made clear at the company\u2019s annual customer event in Maryland; a quality especially prevalent in the company\u2019s CEO Bob Hammer, who strolled casually in and out of Asia Pacific reception on the event\u2019s opening night.\n\u201cOur CIO, CEO and everybody within the organisation is very accessible and they want to come and meet people. Bob will come into a room and talk to people and you won\u2019t know he\u2019s in the room,\u201d says Kieran.\n\u201cThat humble confidence resonates throughout the company. It comes from never making an acquisition \u2013 21 years and we\u2019ve never made an acquisition. That\u2019s a very tight, family-feel culture.\u201d\nKieran sat down with Techday at the event to discuss virtualization in Australia and New Zealand, GDPR compliance, and how the company is helping top Universities attract top researchers.\nAustralia and New Zealand \u2013 Asia Pacific\u2019s virtualization leaders\n\u201cAustralia and New Zealand (ANZ) is our largest market in Asia Pacific, and where Commvault started eleven years ago. At that time, we started with traditional, on-premises backup.\u201d\n\u201cANZ is one of the most virtualized regions in the world, and ss a result, when cloud came along, shifting virtual workloads was easy.\u201d\nBut with that, adds Kieran, comes firstly, how do I shift it - because it\u2019s not as easy as turning something off and moving it, there are all the things that connect into the application and database.\n\u201cWe have the capability to take a complete virtual instance and migrate it to the cloud; whether that\u2019s a private or public cloud. And then, from a cloud to cloud. Once it\u2019s there, we have the ability to protect it. We are a very natural fit [for the region].\u201d\n\u201cIt became a very logical platform for people who were multi location, multi data center, multi cloud.\u201d\n\u201cWe continue to grow the cloud suppliers we support, such as Google Cloud, and Oracle, Azure, AWS \u2013 probably north of 20% of my business comes from service providers that are cloud orientated.\u201d\nThe great cloud challenge: Migrating a Government\n\u201cA prime example is the Government of New Zealand, which came up with a cloud-first initiative. Cloud-first doesn\u2019t mean that they won\u2019t have on-premises, but it does mean that they need to look at how they migrate their workloads to the cloud.\u201d\n\u201cThe Government can\u2019t turn off for a week while they migrate the workloads \u2013 so how do they do that in a run time?\u201d\n\u201cWhat Revera has been successful in doing is using the Commvault Data Platform \u2013 with that, we\u2019re protecting your information, we\u2019ll make a secondary copy on the far site, we\u2019ll put on a performant system so we can stand it up and the change over window will be very short.\u201d\nKiwis and GDPR: Ready and waiting or heads in the sand?\nWhen you talk about GDPR in New Zealand, there\u2019s an assumption it will only impact the major, international Kiwi companies that are working with any kind of a customer or end user in Europe.\n\u201cWell, if you have a European customer coming to New Zealand, their data comes with them \u2013 you\u2019re now exposed to that function,\u201d explains Kieran.\n\u201cAnd it\u2019s an odd conversation. Typically, the legal team doesn\u2019t sit with the IT department.\u201d\nThe conversation of GDPR compliance is bringing together lawyers and IT representatives \u2013 and the two perspectives on compliance are vastly different.\n\u201cTo the IT people we ask: \u2018Are you interested in GDPR?\u2019\u201d\n\u201cThey go, no not really, it\u2019s not something we\u2019re hearing. But, when we sit with the legal team, they say they are very concerned about it. But they hadn\u2019t thought about how to engage with the IT department to make that happen.\"\n\u201cWhat we can do is come in and open that dialogue.\u201d\nAnd once the conversation has kicked off, this is where Commvault\u2019s Data Analytics Portfolio and capabilities come into play.\nWith this offering, Commvault it helping customers understand what data they have and meet GDPR requirements regarding the collection, storage, archive and handling of personal data.\nKieran adds, \u201cWe are using secondary copies of the data to make it searchable.\u201d\n\u201cYou need a secondary copy of your data \u2013 better known as your archive or back up copy. And we can do the search on that so there is no risk of writing over data. So, the cost implementation is significantly lower; instead of purchasing a dedicated platform and copying your information to it, search is built into our platform.\u201d\nWith the platform, Kieran continues, Commvault can bring all these departments together to use the same data.\n\u201cMarketing has a budget, sales has a budget, and IT has a budget. It\u2019s about getting those people in the same room and bringing those budgets together.\u201d\n\u201cWe bring them together and they kick it off.\u201d\nMoreover, what\u2019s interesting, as Kieran explains, is the potential uses of this Search function for fraud detection.\n\u201cHere\u2019s a thought of where this could be used, and currently they do it on submission. When you submit an assignment [at University] it takes it and compares size, notes, content etc.\u201d\n\u201cBut as a way of going over the past ten years of submissions and emails, and be able to look at what people have said between them \u2013 what\u2019s the content? It\u2019s another use. It\u2019s content review. There\u2019s a lot of interesting uses.\u201d\nAttracting Australia\u2019s top researchers with data management\nCommvault partners with a number of Universities in Australia, including one of the nation\u2019s top schools, The University of Melbourne.\n\u201cA world class university comes with world class data challenges,\u201d states Kieran.\n\u201cMelbourne University has a large depository of data but also they have a very interesting set up in how they are structure inside the business between the CIOs office and what would be their customers: the researchers within each faculty.\u201d\n\u201cThe university wants to attract top researchers. Top researchers are attracted by top facilities, by how easy is it for them to do what they want to do, how creative are the people around them, and how much freedom do they have.\u201d\n\u201cFreedom before used to be \u2013 I\u2019ve got money, I want to have my data and a system that sits under my desk and I can turn it on and I can turn it off and I can manage it.\u201d\n\u201cIn the new cloud world, it\u2019s becoming \u2013 can you manage that for me and how can you help me get the most value from my data?\u201d\n\u201cUniversities have set ways of doing things. When researchers come to them they say \u2013 if you would like to align with how we do things, which is best practice, then we will assist you in managing your data.\u201d\nBy giving the University a platform to do all the custodial duties of data, and off loading that from the researchers to the CIO department allows the researchers to focus on the use of their data.\n\u201cThe University is creating a world class facility for researchers by delivering that functionality to them, which, as a researcher, that value add of the University assisting you with your data requirements \u2013 that\u2019s a major plus.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "ABOUT CARTER MATHESON\nSpecial OPS sniper, Carter Matheson, lives in small town America, in a cabin near the Great Smoky Mountains, where he enjoys living under the radar. But don't let his quick humor & southern charm fool you, because he's a hired assassin with only one mission: To Keep America Safe.\nBook 3 in the Carter Matheson Series\nCarter \"Lucky\" Matheson returns in this page-turning, high-action thriller. Hot off the dusty trail of Havana, Cuba, Carter and sidekick \"Mack\" MacKenzie are called to New York City to help an old friend. This time, the subject is a little girl. The enemy has no face. And at the center of the action is Carter's former flame, Clare Burton. When Mayor Lukas Burton's only daughter vanishes in broad daylight in Central Park, the city's leader will stop at nothing to bring her home safely. After Burton pays a ransom worthy of settling a small countries debt, she is returned. However, the kidnappers raise the stakes, asking for a second ransom that could bankrupt the Mayor and ruin his hopes of becoming the next President of the United States.\nLukas and Clare have been duped, because when young Abigail surfaces, she's returned with enough explosives to destroy her family's Upper Eastside neighborhood. Feeling burdened with both emotional and financial bankruptcy, the Mayor's wife takes matters into her own hands, calling on her old flame Carter to use his Special Ops prowess to hunt down a foe with power and position no one expected. Facing an impossible deadline, a little girl who is literally a ticking bomb, and chasing an invisible opponent, Carter must race the clock, find the kidnappers and disarm the bomb before all hell breaks loose.\nBUY PAPERBACK OR KINDLE\nCARTER MATHESON IS BACK. He and best pal Mack return from their last mission with barely enough time to unpack, when Washington calls on them to carry out another job. Lt. Colonel \u201cBulldog\u201d Matheson and bodyguard Mr. Black have been kidnapped, and it's Carter & Mack's mission to bring them home.\nThe high-stakes action heats up in Havana, Cuba, where the legendary Dr. Leonard Caprese has infiltrated The Underground with a drug & arms dealer known as \u201cThe Scorpion.\u201d The clock is ticking. Suspense is building. And lives are on the line as money, drugs and power form the divide between good and evil. Dangerous men with dark intentions threaten not only the lives of Carter and his crew, but our national security.\nSomeone inside the Pentagon, the White House, or perhaps both is trading information with the enemy. When it involves national security, terrorism, theft and greed, it's time for the \"Bureau\" to call on former Special Operative hit man Carter Matheson to come out of retirement and handle a job he is uniquely qualified to perform.\nWith the help of his best friend, Steve \"Mack\" McKenzie, his father, Randall \"Bulldog\" Matheson and an ex-flame, they head to Nicaragua to intercept a plan that has America in the crosshairs.\nBook 1 in the TTV Series\nAfter hearing of her twin sister\u2019s disappearance, Detective Betty Stinson takes her daughter and a leave of absence and returns to the small southern town where she grew up.\nBut nothing\u2019s as it seems in Barren, North Carolina, as the town reveals a wicked and violent history. Betty\u2019s past catches up with a vengeance, and mother & daughter are sucked into a hellish and backwoods mire of murder, incest, violence and greed, when they confront the corrupt Sheriff Big Dick Johnson and his gang of outlaw Vampire Bikers with a secret that\u2019s been hidden for more than 100 years.\nShort Story & Screenplay Adaptation by David Temple",

        "raw_content": "Mykhailo HONCHAR discusses key statements and signals from the Economic Forum in Krynica-Zdroj\nAlla Dubrovyk-Rokhova\nPhoto from the website FORUM-EKONOMICZNE.PL\nThe 28th Economic Forum in Krynica-Zdroj, better known to the Ukrainian reader as the \u201cPolish Davos,\u201d ended on September 6. The largest economic forum in Eastern Europe is first of all a great place to discuss important topics, especially on the sidelines. It is here that one can talk in an informal setting to politicians, experts, international affairs professionals who are involved with NATO and national governments and find out what Ukraine should expect. But there is more to it. The theme of the forum as well as subjects of its discussions and even presentations themselves are all indicators of sorts. And, unfortunately, in the opinion of president of the Strategy XXI Center for Global Studies Mykhailo Honchar, the gathering in Krynica-Zdroj displayed disappointing symptoms: an absence of fresh ideas, reluctance to speak on complex and urgent issues, and, which is unfortunate for Ukraine, a misunderstanding of the threat coming from the Kremlin. You can find more in an exclusive flash interview, which Honchar gave to The Day on the sidelines of the Krynica-Zdroj event.\nThe theme of this year\u2019s International Economic Forum in Krynica-Zdroj is \u201cEurope of Common Values or Europe of Common Interests?\u201d What do you think, why has the organizing committee raised precisely this question? Do Poles claim some sort of a civilizational role for themselves in the EU?\n\u201cAs usual in Krynica, the forum looks monumental. However, there is a crisis of the \u2018genre.\u2019 Interests dominate, although everyone talks about values. They just interpret the values in such a way that they confirm the interests.\n\u201cThere are many discussions and a huge number of single-subject panels, which is also characteristic of the Forum in Krynica. What is striking is the reluctance to discuss serious issues. They pretend to be just oblivious of them.\u201d\n\u201cThe logic is simple: there are too many divisive issues in the EU. Therefore, they decided to speak only about matters that unite them. For example, health care is one. No one in the EU opposes people enjoying good health, why not talk more about that?\n\u201cMeanwhile, they try to evade really high-profile issues, including social, international, and security ones, probably guided by the principle: if you do not speak about a problem, you can pretend that it does not exist.\n\u201cTo a large extent, the Forum is evading the problematic issues of Nord Stream 2. It was not offered as a separate subject at all, while the Russian energy policy in the EU is considered only within two panels, and even there in a cursory manner.\u201d\nHow do you explain this crisis of the genre? Why even choose such an ambitious theme for the Forum, then, if you do not have fresh ideas?\n\u201cThe theme is actually ambitious. And Poland, indeed, as you say, claims a prominent role for itself in the EU. There is a lot of talk about Poland here, about its opportunities and perspectives.\n\u201cBut again, one of the key panel discussions was devoted to the balance of values and interests, and it featured Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs Peter Szijjarto. He blamed the European Commission for its inability to block Nord Stream 2, accusing it of double standards, political correctness, and hypocrisy. He claimed that the authorities in Brussels had grown distant from the people and neglected the traditional Christian values, on the basis of which Europe had arisen. He also stressed that countries such as Poland and Hungary demonstrated other approaches, ones based on the values that the old Europe had neglected. Of course, this is what the two nations\u2019 governments want to exploit today. At the same time, Szijjarto gave his true motives away in full, since it was not some considerations of a fundamental nature that made him an opponent of the Russian project, but the fact that the European Commission blocked another of Vladimir Putin\u2019s corrupt pipeline projects, called South Stream, in 2014; had it gone forward, Hungary would have received generous payments from the Kremlin trough.\u201d\nDo you see here at the Forum in Krynica an understanding of the fact which Lancelot Lawton warned the \u201cold Europe\u201d about in the British Parliament back in 1939 \u2013 that the fate of Europe will depend on the resolution of the Ukrainian problem?\n\u201cUkrainian topics do get discussed, but they have faded from the public mind. In my opinion, the Europeans\u2019 sense of danger is receding. They understand it, but just like in the case of, say, Russia\u2019s actions against Georgia or the cessation of gas supplies to Ukraine and the EU in 2009, Western Europe can assume that this is an issue that has arisen to the east of it between countries that are not members of the EU, and they themselves have to resolve it.\n\u201cSpeaking of experts and well-known politicians from the Baltic States or Poland, they all understand well what is going on, analyze it and take an appropriate position. But nobody will solve our problems for us, and nobody is going to help us either.\n\u201cThe most that they will do is to offer moral political solidarity.\n\u201cOne of the important topics which the Forum in Krynica is focused on is the idea of the Trimarium or Intermarium.\n\u201cA year ago, it was presented and made public at the Forum. This is a new fundamental initiative of Polish politicians, distinct from the Miedzymorze, which is an extension of Jozef Pilsudski-era Polish plans. It is distinct because it is not just about the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea, but also the Adriatic which offers access to the Mediterranean.\n\u201cWhile Ukraine was denied participation last year, since this initiative concerned only EU member states and Ukraine is not a member of the EU, they are saying this year that the Trimarium parliamentary assembly is being formed, and Ukraine should also be invited to participate.\n\u201cThe Polish senator Bogdan Borusewicz said clearly and frankly: this idea is meaningless without Ukraine and Ukraine should participate fully in this initiative.\u201d\nYou recently sent a very serious message that all Russian projects, including Nord Stream 2, can be used to cover intelligence activities against NATO, they will not only transport gas, but also monitor the space above and below the water. Has there been a response from NATO?\n\u201cThere has been no such response yet. We also presented here in Krynica our latest report, a study on the possibilities of Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic being used outside its core purpose, namely by Russia to gain superiority over NATO. We have received a positive response from American partners. By the way, we were pleased to act in unison with several experts from the American Center for European Political Analysis. They presented their already well-known report, which was prepared several months ago and deals with the negative consequences of Nord Stream 2 for European and Euro-Atlantic solidarity. They also noted the possibility of the new pipeline infrastructure being used militarily against NATO.\n\u201cWe presented it all in a summarized manner, and I think that all this is being studied and interpreted in many government offices.\n\u201cBut in the meantime, welding and laying of pipes is beginning on the quiet from the eastern flank. Just a few days ago, we received a message that work in the economic zone of Finland had begun.\n\u201cNevertheless, I hope the situation will enter a scenario where Gazprom will have buried a certain amount of money at the bottom of the Baltic Sea, and then it will be hit by the American sanctions that are currently under consideration (the new wave of them). And this scenario will be the end of it for the Kremlin. The next couple of months will be indicative in this regard.\u201d\nBy Alla DUBROVYK-ROKHOVA, The Day\n55 countries \u2013 55 years!\nWhat steps are needed to pull Ukraine out of the World\u2019s least competitive countries?\nPrime minister\u2019s first year: conclusions and promises\nUkrainian economy is not for \u201cwimps\u201d\nDavos and Yalta: parallels\nTrying to manage chaos\nA step towards the Baltic-Black Sea \u201cbelt\u201d of security\nAre we independent 25 years after the referendum?\n\u201cFrom European optimism to healthy Ukraine-centered pragmatism\u201d",

        "raw_content": "So here we are again, it\u2019s time for the Super Bowl. The Super Bowl has become so popular now that it is more of a social event then a sports championship. People use the Super Bowl as an excuse to get together with friends and family and have a good time. So here are some interesting facts about the Super Bowl that you can use as conversation during your get together.\nTom Brady, who is in his 40s will be the oldest player in this years Super Bowl. New England linebacker James Harrison is a year younger. By comparison, the oldest player on the Philadelphia Eagles roster is 36-year-old offensive tackle Jason Peters who is not on the active list. Peters has been in the league since 2004 and with the Eagles since 2009.\nThe youngest player for this game is defensive end Derek Barnett who play for the Eagles. Barnet just turned 21 at the end of June.\nThe halftime show has become a big part of Super Bowl over the years and each year there\u2019s a huge amount of interest over who will be performing. This year the honor goes to Justin Timberlake who will be making his third appearance in a Super Bowl. First as part of N Sync in 2001, and then in 2004 when the term \u201cwardrobe malfunction\u201d became part of the English language.\nBefore the game kicks off, America the Beautiful\u201d will be sung by Leslie Odom Jr. Odom is well known for his portrayal of Aaron Burr in the hit Broadway musical Hamilton. Interestingly enough, in last years Super Bowl \u201cAmerican the Beautiful\u201d was sung by Phillipa Soo, Renee Elise Goldsberry and Jasmine Cephas Jones who are also cast members in Hamilton.\nSo, there you have it, some interesting facts about this years Super Bowl. Hopefully your Super Bowl party will be a success. Just make sure you have enough food and drink!\nPreviousPrevious post:The Winter Nationals are on the move in Pomona.NextNext post:What foods go good with beer?",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Russian accordian\nCrash History #5: Persians and Greeks \u2192\nMinute Physics gets pink wrong\n(Updated; see below.)\nI'm surprised that Minute Physics would get this wrong:\nLink: http://youtu.be/S9dqJRyk0YM\nIt's true that there's no wavelength of light that's pink and that the color magenta is basically white light with the middle wavelengths omitted. But despite what Minute Physics claims, the color usually referred to as \"pink\" isn't magenta; it's pale red, or (in photography and videography) a mix of roughly equal levels of blue and green light plus a greater amount of red.\nThere are many other colors seen by humans that don't correspond to single wavelengths, such as brown and cyan, not to mention dozens of colors women have names for and men don't. Moreover, what we see as yellow can be monochromatic yellow (as in a pair of emission lines of sodium) or instead a mixture of red and green with no yellow wavelengths at all. (Televisions and computer monitors, for example, produce no yellow light; they fake it with red and green.)\nIn brief, color isn't the same as wavelength. Minute Physics has that basic idea right at least, but the people involved, who are otherwise bright and charming, no doubt kind to children and admired even by their enemies, need to read up more on color perception and photography.\nAnd equating pink with all other wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum besides green is just downright bizarre...\nUpdate: A comment on this post form someone named Violet suggests that calling magenta \"pink\" is not so bizarre after all, and I must concede that Violet has a point. The subject has come up in the context of, oddly enough, British politics, as explained by John Oliver in a clip I included in this later post.\nPosted in Science, Video clips\tpermalink\nMinute Physics gets pink wrong \u2014 7 Comments\nDan Peirce on 2013-02-13 at 03:05 said:\nYes, I agree with all the points you made here. I was poking around with google to see if I could find anyone who had posted a review of this video. Now the question is, is there any value in the other minute physics video's on more advanced topics?\nI haven't looked at enough of them to form a firm opinion, and I'm not a physicist in any case. (I was a physics major in college, but that was a long while ago.) But on average, I think they tend to do a pretty good job, and they're entertaining. You might want to check out the Sixty Symbols videos (http://www.sixtysymbols.com) from the University of Nottingham, however, since they're produced by a university physics department. There's actually quite a lot of good educational stuff on YouTube, far more than we had back in my day. Of course, life was hard then. We lived in a shoebox in the middle of road. (Don't believe me, see this clip.)\nPingback: Memegenta: Tracking the Magenta Meme | Liz Elliott's Science Blog\nViolet on 2015-02-17 at 22:22 said:\nThis is where I point out something very vital about the color \"pink\" as many were taught in what we thought as \"fundamental\" color science--Pink is red and white mixed together. Well yes, that is one kind of pink, but not the kind of pink Minute Physics is referring to. MAGENTA is a very distinguishable color that is not reproducible using \"red\" and \"white\" pigments. In fact, pigmentation in paints is often much more complicated than what we were taught in our basic elementary school classes. The pink minute physics is referring to is not the pink of equal mixes of green and blue with red, but of an equal mix of blue and red, which I like to distinguish from all of the other pinks and instead use the term \"magenta.\" (Saying this, however, neglects basic understanding of subtractive and additive color mixing. Spare me the pain.)\nIf you want a good head start on some ideas of where to start looking for the as to how color vision works, I'd refer to HandPrint. http://www.handprint.com/LS/CVS/color.html\nWhile you're at it, you might as well research how pigmentation in paints work, too. http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/water.html\nOr, you know, just drop me a question or two. I've been independently studying the properties of color for years.\nHi Violet. Yes, magenta is indeed a quite distinct color in human vision, and one of the subtractive primaries uses in printing and in film-based color photography. My point is that it's almost never called \"pink,\" which as you note has a standard definition as desaturated red (that is, red plus white), something of course very different from magenta.\nI appreciate the link to the Handprint site, which does indeed appear from a quick skim to have quite good information on human color vision and its interaction with the physics of light, albeit with some omissions. For example, in the section on the possibility of vision with four types of cones (link), there's no mention of the fact that some vertebrates (notably quite a lot of birds) have four-color vision, and that at least some of them can see into the ultraviolet (as can other creatures, such as some insects). On the other eyeball, that's not really a complaint since the topic doesn't directly relate to human vision.\nColor vision is a longtime interest of mine as well, having studied physics in college and worked as a photographer and videographer and briefly in my youth had aspirations of becoming a painter. Thanks for your comment.\nViolet, if you happen to check back here, see the update above. It seems the question of can magenta be pink or vice versa has come up in the context of British politics, of all things.\nPingback: The British Labour Party enters the pink / magenta dispute | D Gary Grady",

        "raw_content": "Like I needed more reasons to be disgusted with Indy \u201coccupiers\u201d\nPosted by xenologer on November 1, 2012\nPosted in: Xenologer.\tTagged: activism, being an asshole, feminism, lgbt, racism, solidarity.\t1 Comment\nA guy I met through our local occupation, with which I have since been pretty disillusioned and even disgusted, just posted this to Facebook:\nIt is truly amazing, considering the odd rift that seems to be between Occupy and the Tea Party, how many ideas and concerns we have in common. I also find it funny for people to classify one group or the other as all being a certain way, when both groups are open to anyone who shows up. I think it has to be artificial. It must be, when we have so much in common. Yes, of course there will be differences, but when anyone is free to join, there will be differences. It\u2019s our similarities which are important. Sure, the groups tend to be left leaning or right leaning, but it only makes sense to come together on what we agree on. The NDAA and fascism, drone attacks, inflation, GMOs, corporatism, corporate media and the failure of the 2 party system are all issues which I see on Tea Party pages. Honestly, I believe that if we came together on all that we do agree on, and put aside for the greater good, those things that we don\u2019t, then we can achieve so much. We\u2019ve all had that experience when we needed to work with someone who we didn\u2019t always get along with, but most people are able to put that aside to get things done which need to be done. I know that occupiers have that issue just within our own group. If we can do that with individuals, we should be able to do that with other groups. We can simply agree to disagree on those issues. It\u2019s important for the good of our country to come together. It\u2019s important because together, we are stronger than we are alone. It\u2019s important because our country needs us to help it rather than fight among ourselves. I\u2019m not going to let petty differences separate us, when it\u2019s the important ones we agree on. In the end, if we are willing to be open minded, it is only labels and media produced stereotypes that keep us separate. I believe it\u2019s for our own good to be open minded and join the parties.\nSadly, some of those \u201cpetty differences\u201d are a matter of life and death for a lot of people. There are commonalities, but a couple of the disagreements I have with TEA Party activists are dealbreakers for me. It\u2019s okay to say that they\u2019re trivial to you, but that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re objectively trivial or that people who refuse to treat them like they\u2019re trivial are somehow hurting our country.\nEverybody has to make a stand where they care. Sometimes we care about different things. I think we need to be able to admit that without calling the things other people care about \u201cpetty\u201d just because some people aren\u2019t affected by them.\nWell they are petty distractions in relation to the big issue. the issues that both political parties agree on that are destroying our country.\nYou should probably delete all the LGBT people and women and rape victims on your Facebook friends list, because if you think that the things they are fighting for (in many cases against the TEA Party) are petty distractions, you should re-evaluate whether you are really the friend they deserve.\nHe was an asshole:\nThat\u2019s an awfully extremist idea\u2026 Because I want to work together with people who have some of the same core beliefs rather than focus on our differences makes me automatically aligned with the extreme right wingers? I\u2019m a bad person because I think compromise is the better plan rather than infighting and division? A group which has 99% of the population in it is never going to agree on everything, and we cannot expect them to.\nI told him so:\nYou can agree to focus on different issues without treating the things affecting people you call friends like they\u2019re petty. You can value one thing without treating others like they\u2019re hurting the country by valuing something else.\nIf we\u2019re going to suggest that extremism is inherently evil, isn\u2019t it a more extreme position to say, \u201cI am fighting for the only issues worth fighting for, and everything else is petty crap distracting us from the important stuff,\u201d rather than to say, \u201cThese issues are important, too, but we all have to choose how to focus our energies.\u201d\nYou fight for what you want, but don\u2019t you dare dismiss the survival struggles of people you call friends\u2026 and still presume to call them friends. That\u2019s my problem. I don\u2019t pour my heart into every single worthy cause in the world either, but the difference between you and me is that I do not call those other causes \u201cpetty.\u201d You just did, and then YOU called ME an extremist.\nThat\u2019s not how solidarity works. We don\u2019t have to be fighting each other\u2019s battles all the time, but we can at least stop short of dismissing each other\u2019s battles as trivial distractions. Please give that much respect to the people you know and allegedly love who are literally fighting for survival.\nThat\u2019s all I have to say. I hope that you\u2019ll consider your words more carefully next time. Good night.\nGross. Gross gross gross.\nThese are the kinds of people we have here. We have a group that explicitly rebuked LGBT and feminist activists for bringing \u201cdivisive identity politics\u201d into their occupation when we simply asked other activists not to give us the same shit inside the movement that we get outside of it. I\u2019m not surprised that the last vestiges of the Indy clusterfuck are a reflection of that.\nThe next time they\u2019re looking for publicity, they\u2019ll show up at an LGBT-focused rally. The next time they\u2019re looking for women to use to do their political work, they\u2019ll suddenly notice that politicians are mean to women. (I almost added something about the next time they notice that they have scarce to no people of color at their events, but we all know they\u2019d never notice.)\nGenerally, though, next time they want something, suddenly we\u2019ll be worth their time again.\nIsn\u2019t that always the way it fuckin\u2019 goes.",

        "raw_content": "For Christopher Payne, Mentoring Native American Students Means Better Science\n(Credit: Marilyn Chung/Berkeley Lab)\nBy Theresa Duque\nWhile growing up in Fresno, California, Lab researcher Christopher Payne dreamt of becoming a particle physicist.\nBut as the only child of a single mother with a limited income, he wasn\u2019t sure how he would pay for college. Payne thought he\u2019d have to put his scientific pursuits on hold until one afternoon, during his sophomore year of high school, he received a letter from Carleton College, a liberal arts school in Northfield, Minnesota. He had never heard of Carleton, but the message was clear: They would guarantee the financial support of any admitted student.\nFor Payne, that level of commitment to a student body seemed too good to be true. At his high school, dropping out was common; less than half of an entering class would graduate. \u201cI knew few teachers who cared to make a difference,\u201d he says.\nMentoring to Give Back\nHis first year at Carleton opened his eyes to how educators can steer a young person\u2019s career. \u201cI didn\u2019t know what office hours were for,\u201d Payne says. \u201cHaving professors who actually cared about me was something I had never experienced before. I thought, \u2018Maybe I should work harder in this class!\u2019\u201d\nPayne went on to earn a Ph.D. from the University of Delaware in Urban Affairs and Public Policy, and he now heads the Buildings and Industrial Applications Department in the Energy Technologies Area. It\u2019s been over 25 years since he graduated from Carleton with a bachelor\u2019s degree in physics, but his formative years there continue to influence him and are especially apparent in his approach to mentoring.\nSince December 2015, Payne has mentored students participating in Carleton\u2019s externship program, which gives undergrads a chance to shadow alums at their full-time jobs. \u201cCarleton was important for me, and this is my chance to give back,\u201d he says. \u201cI want to show these students that their liberal arts degrees can prepare them for a career in the Department of Energy national lab system.\u201d\nIt also gives him a chance to show Lab staff that liberal arts students can make good scientists, engineers, and employees, he adds.\nBuilding a Better STEM Pipeline\nPayne, who is of Cherokee descent, is also committed to forging ties between the Lab and up-and-coming scientists from the Native American community. \u201cI think that diversity is important,\u201d he says. \u201cI have a successful career in STEM because my professors at Carleton believed in me. It\u2019s important for me to give back by mentoring students who want to pursue their dreams but aren\u2019t sure how to start.\u201d\nAn old family photo of Christopher Payne (seated on pony) with his grandmother, father, and a family friend.\nAs a child in California\u2019s Central Valley, he was always aware of his Native American heritage, even though most people assumed he was white. He traces his sense of identity to his father and grandparents, who raised him on stories about his great-aunt\u2019s forced migration from North Carolina to Oklahoma on the Trail of Tears, and what it was like for them growing up on an Oklahoma reservation.\nPayne also credits the Fresno Unified School District for identifying him as Native American early on and recognizing indigenous peoples during cultural field trips. \u201cI would get pulled out of school to go look at grinding rocks in Yosemite,\u201d he recalls. \u201cMy family\u2019s tribe isn\u2019t from Yosemite, but looking back, it at least said that there\u2019s something about being Native American that\u2019s important.\u201d\nAs his division\u2019s alternate diversity representative to the Lab\u2019s Diversity & Inclusion Council, Payne reaches out to Native American STEM students through conferences and scholarship committees. For a second year in a row, he participated as an AISES (American Indian Science and Engineering Society) scholarship application reviewer.\nLast year, through the Lab\u2019s Ambassador Program, he represented the Lab at the SACNAS (Society for Advancing Chicanos/Hispanics & Native Americans in Science) National Diversity in STEM Conference. SACNAS is a society of scientists dedicated to fostering the success of Hispanic/Chicano and Native American scientists\u2014from college students to professionals\u2014to attain advanced degrees, careers, and positions of leadership.\n\u201cSACNAS provides us an important opportunity to connect with one of the most underrepresented minorities, especially in science,\u201d he says. \u201cI met incredibly high-caliber science students there from top universities\u2014Princeton, Harvard, Chicago, Johns Hopkins\u2014who hadn\u2019t heard of Berkeley Lab. If we can develop a pipeline of people who are aware of and engaged with Berkeley Lab, that can pay dividends in the future. It\u2019s not about doing them a favor. It\u2019s about making our science better.\u201d\nYaw Opoku Agyeman says:\nChris is my direct supervisor. It might seem a bit obvious that I would comment on an article about him, or that my take would be altogether positive and reverential. But Chris does live his beliefs. His commitment to the ideal that the expansion of opportunity to all segments of society is both a good onto itself as well as being a good to the scientific enterprise is one that he continually stresses. He is constantly thinking through not just the ways in which these opportunities may be further explored (I should know, as a co-representative on the Diversity & Inclusion Council), but is similarly concerned about how to ensure that those under his supervision feel supported, validated and encouraged to do their best work (the inclusion side of the equation). Professionally and personally, he lives as a calm source of inspiration. It is a privilege to work with him.\nKaryn Houston says:\nVery enjoyable article!",

        "title": "Your Dog Deserves the Best Dog Water Dispenser",
        "raw_content": "The best dog water dispenser can help your dog by ensuring that they always have a fresh water supply on hand. Your dog is an important part of your family.\nTaking care of him/her has to be a top priority because they are completely dependent on you for food and water. Dogs require a fresh supply of water at all times and it can be difficult for you to manage that if you have to work during the day.\nChoosing the Right Dispenser\nWhat We Thought Was Best\nThe Pet Safe Healthy Pet Station Watering System\nPetmate Brushed Nickel Pet Waterer\nFree Standing Dog/Cat Bottle Waterer with Bowl\nPetsafe Mini Well Pet Drinking Fountain\nDrink Well Ceramic Avalon for Pets\nPetsafe LA Bistro Waterer\nDogs can quickly dehydrate when they do not have access to clean fresh water and it can even promote unwanted behaviors. Frankly a simple bowl filled with water is not enough to protect your dog when you are away from home. There are some clear reasons why you should opt for a dog water dispenser instead of just a bowl on the floor.\nBowls can get knocked over spilling the water on the floor and worse yet leaving your dog without water to drink. Many dogs will turn to the commode when they do not have an adequate supply of fresh water where they can be exposed to chemicals. Some dogs will scratch away at the toilet seat to try to get it open which of course damages the toilet seat.\nThere are plenty reasons why a dispenser is just a better idea but none more important than your dog\u2019s health. Dogs do not have the ability to let us know when they are not feeling well so often times we do not realize that they are sick until they are very sick.\nStaying hydrated when they are not well being one of the most important things they can do, without access to clean water a dog may just forgo drinking. Not drinking is not an option because it will raise the risk of the dog becoming seriously ill.\nOf course there is always the potential for kidney infections and urinary tract infections when a dog is not drinking enough fluids. It is always best to proceed with caution and ensure that your dog has an adequate supply of fresh clean water every day whether you are there or not.\nThe peace of mind knowing that you are doing all that you can to care for your friend is well worth the very small investment.\nThe best dog water dispenser for your dog may not be what is best for another dog. There are a few things that you have to consider when choosing a dispenser:\nThe size of your dog\nThe space for the dispenser\nIf you have a large dog than clearly a small animal dispenser is not the best option for you but if you have a small dog than a smaller dispenser would likely be sufficient.\nYou will need to have a space that is adequate for the dispenser so you do have to consider the shape and overall size of the dispenser.\nFinally, you have to set a budget. We looked at quite a few water dispensers to find a good selection of options to help you to whittle down your list of possibilities. The best dog water dispensers that we found are listed below.\nThis is a great watering station. It holds 2.5 gallons of water in the sturdy reserve tank that avails your dog to fresh clean water whenever they want it. It has a stainless steel bowl that is hard to pull out so if you have a dog that is a little mischievous you do not have to worry about them tipping over the bowl.\nThis is a good option for indoor use. It holds enough water so that you do not have to worry about filling it up but not so much that you have to worry about dumping it out to replenish old water.\nThis dispenser is treated with microban to help keep away any mold, mildew and other germs that can grow in your dog\u2019s water. This dispenser is great for small dogs it holds 1 gallon of water at the ready for whenever your dog needs some fresh water.\nIt is on the small side so it can fit anywhere regardless of the space that you have reserved for their food and water. This has a nice finish and will hold up well even in the dishwasher.\nThis option is really the top of the line electronic dispenser. The water is constantly filtered and pumped through the system to give your dog a nice fresh supply of water.\nThis model has received over 5000 positive comments. The waterfall that runs into the reservoir is a great way to get finicky pets to drink more water.\nIt is shipped with replacement carbon filters. You will need an electrical outlet handy to plug the dispenser up to. The down side is that this model does require power to operate which of course means that you will be paying for additional power to operate it and if there is a power outage the system stops working.\nWe liked this because it has two different options to drink but it would be best suited for smaller dogs and cats. The reservoir is not very generous but the dog can lick the drip tube at the top to get some extra water if needed. It is height adjustable which is a nice feature and it is compact so if you are looking for something for a smaller space this would work out great.\nThis is a plug in model that has a filtration system and looks an awful lot like a commode. Perhaps the designers had a sense of humour and designed this model to look like a commode on purpose or maybe it just is a great design that works well. In any event it does look like a commode and it does provide fresh water through its fountain filtration system.\nYou do need to plug it up so keep that in mind. It uses very little energy so you really do not have to worry about the additional expense of running this model.\nThis is also a plug in variety. It offers an upper and a lower drinking well for pets so they have a choice based on their size.\nThe reservoir holds about 70 ounces of water which makes it a good choice for small to medium sized dogs. You will need an outlet nearby to wherever you place it so do keep that in mind when ordering.\nIt comes with replacement filters and has a unique design. The double bowls are a nice option if you have a couple of dogs that are finicky and that do not like to drink out of the same bowl.\nOne of the best things about electric water dispensers is that you do not have to worry about dumping water out that gets old after a while. The filtration system just keeps the water nice and clean. All you have to do is add water as the level gets down lower.\nThis is a large sized waterer that holds up to 4 gallons of water making it ideal for large pets. It is made from unbleached plastic which is always a better option for your pets. It is sturdy and is designed to prevent tipping.\nThe bowls have safety rings to keep them firmly in place. It is a good choice for anyone that is interested in a gravity fed waterer and that wants to avoid having to plug something in. It is heavy duty yet portable. It will fit nicely in most spaces that are reserved for your dog\u2019s food and water.\nThere are literally hundreds of water dispensers for pets on the market but you do have to be careful which ones you choose because some are not made without chemicals in the plastic parts.\nYou never want expose your pets unknowingly to something that can cause illness so it is always important that you pay attention to the materials that are used to craft the dispenser.\nThe best dog water dispensers are made with care to avoid any potentially harmful chemicals in the process. They are a great investment in both your dog\u2019s comfort and health. Of course they are an investment in your peace of mind. They provide you with a way of having to worry about one less thing.\nYou will always know that your dog has access to fresh water no matter where you are. There is nothing worse than moving through the day worried about whether you gave your dog fresh water before you left. Life is busy any little bit of stress that you can take off yourself is a good idea!\nGrooming Tips for Your Big Dog",

Gabriel Thompson, a journalist based in Oakland, California, shares this family\u2019s story and the fear that permeates their life in Coachella, Underground, a piece for which I and others at East Coast Migrant Head Start Project were interviewed.\nI don\u2019t mean to dis Beyonc\u00e9. In fact, I am a huge fan. \u201cSorry\u201d has been a rallying cry for our project since the song\u2019s release in June of 2016. Our farmworkers celebrate the song\u2019s chorus. It resonates: Why should we apologize for our presence when \u201crich or poor, what Americans have on their dining room tables is what we are giving them from our hands.\u201d https://vimeo.com/158226128 I also love the video for \u201cSorry\u201d, with its allusions to farm work, crew buses, and the stark dividing line that often exists between farm labor and farm capital.\nBut I\u2019d be remiss if I didn\u2019t remind you of the fear of family separation farmworkers experience each day they leave their children in our care and head to the fields and to the packing houses. When all that stands between our parents and the loss of their American dream is a \u201cbroken tail light\u201d and a sheriff\u2019s deputy without a heart. There are no music festivals to draw attention to it, but in Florida, Alabama, and the rural Mid-Atlantic, our farmworker communities remain persecuted as traffic stops lead to immigration holds that too often lead to removal proceedings.\nIn the face of these attacks, it\u2019s important to support the causes that serve and uplift farmworker families. East Coast Migrant Head Start Project is just one non-profit among many that have built a capacity to help farmworkers involved in immigration removal proceedings. You should support us and you should support our partners.\nMeanwhile, our farmworkers will no doubt do what they\u2019ve always done: be resilient, work hard, and have faith that their resilience and hard work will be rewarded. Until then, deuces up.\nPosted in Advocacy, ECMHSP News, Immigration\t| Tagged Beyonc\u00e9, Coachella\t| Leave a reply",

While men built bridges and highways that connected the United States and Latin America, women of the PART built metaphorical ones of friendship and understanding. They acted as agents of \u201csoft\u201d diplomacy reshaping Pan Americanism, a U.S. foreign policy goal intended to foster commercial and political ties and to spread democracy in Latin America. Their activist work on behalf of Pan Americanism became a vehicle for personal and community enrichment: through education of self and public, they believed they could change attitudes toward Latin America and its people, yielding a common ground of mutual respect as their motto \u201cliking comes from knowing\u201d suggested. The PART is thus a model study for the interplay of gender, diplomacy, and foreign relations in the twentieth century.\nAuthor Posting. \u00a9 Journal of Women's History, 2015.

        "raw_content": "This article is about human communication. For other uses, see Conversation (disambiguation).\nArnold Lakhovsky, The Conversation (circa 1935)\nConversation is interactive communication between two or more people.\nThe development of conversational skills and etiquette is an important part of socialization. The development of conversational skills in a new language is a frequent focus of language teaching and learning.\nConversation analysis is a branch of sociology which studies the structure and organization of human interaction, with a more specific focus on conversational interaction.\nDefinition and characterizationEdit\nNo generally accepted definition of conversation exists, beyond the fact that a conversation involves at least two people talking together.[1] Consequently, the term is often defined by what it is not. A ritualized exchange such as a mutual greeting is not a conversation, and an interaction that includes a marked status differential (such as a boss giving orders) is also not a conversation.[2] An interaction with a tightly focused topic or purpose is also generally not considered a conversation.[3] Summarizing these properties, one authority writes that \"Conversation is the kind of speech that happens informally, symmetrically, and for the purposes of establishing and maintaining social ties.\"[4]\nFrom a less technical perspective, a writer on etiquette in the early 20th century defined conversation as the polite give and take of subjects thought of by people talking with each other for company.[5]\nConversations follow rules of etiquette because conversations are social interactions, and therefore depend on social convention. Specific rules for conversation arise from the cooperative principle. Failure to adhere to these rules causes the conversation to deteriorate or eventually to end. Contributions to a conversation are responses to what has previously been said.\nConversations may be the optimal form of communication, depending on the participants' intended ends. Conversations may be ideal when, for example, each party desires a relatively equal exchange of information, or when the parties desire to build social ties. On the other hand, if permanency or the ability to review such information is important, written communication may be ideal. Or if time-efficient communication is most important, a speech may be preferable.\nConversation involves a lot more nuanced and implied context that lies beneath just the words.[6]\nConversation is generally face-to-face person-to-person at the same time (synchronous) \u2013 possibly online with video applications such as Skype, but might also include audio-only phone calls. It would not generally include internet written communication which tends to be asynchronous (not same time \u2013 can read and respond later if at all) and does not fit the 'con'='with' in 'conversation'. In face to face conversation it has been suggested that 85% of the communication is non-verbal/body language \u2013 a smile, a frown, a shrug, tone of voice conveying much added meaning to the mere words. Short forms of written communication such as sms are thus frequently misunderstood. Yet the convenience and apparent control makes them increasingly popular now that many people seem to prefer to communicate via short text or Facebook post and/or 'like' than actually meeting face to face.\nFace to face conversation is increasingly deemed less important when people have already seen all the relevant news about the other person they have already shared online. Also people would typically never say face to face some things they might easily write with the apparent impunity of anonymous online posts. To this extent the decreasing popularity of face to face conversation can be seen as a loss to society and civility.\nBanterEdit\n\"Banter\" redirects here. For the BBC radio show, see Banter (radio show).\nBanter is short witty sentences that bounce back and forth between individuals. Often banter uses clever put-downs and witty insults, misunderstandings (often intentional), zippy wisecracks, zingers, flirtation, and puns. The idea is each line of banter should \"top\" the one before it and in short a verbal war of wit without any physical contact.\nFilms that have used banter as a way of structure in conversations are:\nImportant factors in delivering a banter is the subtext, situation and the rapport with the person. Every line in a banter should be able to evoke both an emotional response and ownership without hurting one's feelings. Following a structure that the involved parties understand is important, even if the subject and structure is absurd, a certain level of progression should be kept in a manner that it connects with the involved parties.\nDifferent methods of story telling could be used in delivering banter, like making an unexpected turn in the flow of structure (interrupting a comfortable structure), taking the conversation towards an expected crude form with evoking questions, doubts, self-conscientiousness (creating intentional misunderstandings) or layering the existing pattern with multiple anchors...etc. It is important to quit the bantering with the sensibility of playground rules, both parties shouldn't obsess on topping each other, continuously after a certain point of interest. It is as Shakespeare said \"Brevity is the soul of wit.\"[7]\nOne element of conversation is discussion: sharing opinions on subjects that are thought of during the conversation. In polite society the subject changes before discussion becomes dispute or controversial. For example, if theology is being discussed, no one is insisting a particular view be accepted.[8]\nSubjectEdit\nMany conversations can be divided into four categories according to their major subject content:\nSubjective ideas, which often serve to extend understanding and awareness.\nObjective facts, which may serve to consolidate a widely held view.\nOther people (usually absent), which may be either critical, competitive, or supportive. This includes gossip.\nOneself, which sometimes indicate attention-seeking behavior or can provide relevant information about oneself to participants in the conversation.\nPractically, few conversations fall exclusively into one category. Nevertheless, the proportional distribution of any given conversation between the categories can offer useful psychological insights into the mind set of the participants. This is the reason that the majority of conversations are difficult to categorize.\nMost conversations may be classified by their goal. Conversational ends may, however, shift over the life of the conversation.\nFunctional conversation is designed to convey information in order to help achieve an individual or group goal.\nSmall talk is a type of conversation where the topic is less important than the social purpose of achieving bonding between people or managing personal distance, such as 'how is the weather' might be portrayed as an example, which conveys no practicality whatsoever.\nAspectsEdit\nDifferences between men and womenEdit\nA study completed in July 2007 by Matthias Mehl of the University of Arizona shows that contrary to popular belief, there is little difference in the number of words used by men and women in conversation.[9] The study showed that on average each of the sexes uses about 16,000 words per day.\nBetween strangersEdit\nThere are certain situations, typically encountered while traveling, which result in strangers sharing what would ordinarily be an intimate social space such as sitting together on a bus or airplane. In such situations strangers are likely to share intimate personal information they would not ordinarily share with strangers. A special case emerges when one of the travelers is a mental health professional and the other party shares details of their personal life in the apparent hope of receiving help or advice.[10]\nNarcissismEdit\nConversational narcissism is a term used by sociologist Charles Derber in his book, The Pursuit of Attention: Power and Ego in Everyday Life.\nDerber observed that the social support system in America is relatively weak, and this leads people to compete mightily for attention. In social situations, they tend to steer the conversation away from others and toward themselves. \"Conversational narcissism is the key manifestation of the dominant attention-getting psychology in America,\" he wrote. \"It occurs in informal conversations among friends, family and coworkers. The profusion of popular literature about listening and the etiquette of managing those who talk constantly about themselves suggests its pervasiveness in everyday life.\"[11]\nWhat Derber describes as \"conversational narcissism\" often occurs subtly rather than overtly because it is prudent to avoid being judged an egotist.\nDerber distinguishes the \"shift-response\" from the \"support-response\". A shift response takes the focus of attention away from the last speaker and refocuses on the new speaker, as in: \"John: I'm feeling really starved. Mary: Oh, I just ate.\" Whereas a support response maintains the focus on the last speaker, as in: \"John: I'm feeling really starved. Mary: When was the last time you ate?\"\nThe ability to generate conversation that cannot be distinguished from a human participant has been one test of a successful artificial intelligence (The Turing Test). A human judge engages in a natural language conversation with one human and one machine, each of which tries to appear human. If the judge cannot tell the machine from the human, the machine is said to have passed the test. One limitation is that the conversation is limited to a text, not allowing tone to be shown.\nOne's selfEdit\nAlso called intrapersonal communication, the act of conversing with oneself can help solve problems or serve therapeutic purposes like avoiding silence.\nAs a prominent and useful figure in most human lives, conversation is often used in the media, e.g. talk shows such as William F. Buckley's Firing Line or the Dick Cavett Show.\nAuthors who have written extensively on conversation and attempted to analyze its nature include:\nMilton Wright wrote The Art of Conversation, a comprehensive treatment of the subject, in 1936. The book deals with conversation both for its own sake, and for political, sales, or religious ends. Milton portrays conversation as an art or creation that people can play with and give life to.\nKerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Al Switzler, and Ron McMillan have written two New York Times bestselling books on conversation. The first one, Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High, McGraw-Hill, 2002, teaches skills for handling disagreement and high-stakes issues at work and at home. The second book, Crucial Accountability: Tools for Resolving Violated Expectations, Broken Commitments, and Bad Behavior, McGraw-Hill, 2013, teaches important skills for dealing with accountability issues.\nCharles Blattberg has written two books defending an approach to politics that emphasizes conversation, in contrast to negotiation, as the preferred means of resolving conflict. His From Pluralist to Patriotic Politics: Putting Practice First, Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press, 2000, ISBN 0-19-829688-6, is a work of political philosophy; and his Shall We Dance? A Patriotic Politics for Canada, Montreal and Kingston: McGill-Queen's University Press, 2003, ISBN 0-7735-2596-3, applies that philosophy to the Canadian case.\nPaul Drew & John Heritage \u2013 Talk at Work, a study of how conversation changes in social and workplace situations.\nNeil Postman \u2013 Amusing Ourselves to Death (Conversation is not the book's specific focus, but discourse in general gets good treatment here)\nConversational Style: Analyzing Talk Among Friends,\nDaniel Menaker \u2013 A Good Talk: The Story and Skill of Conversation (published 2010)\nStephen Miller \u2013 Conversation: A History of a Declining Art: provides an extensive history of conversation which dates back to the ancient Greeks with Socrates, and moving forward, to coffeehouses around the world, as well as the modern forces of the electronic age, talk shows, etc.\nConversation in the Cathedral (1969) is one of the main novels by the Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa.\nIn \"Six Benefits of Better Conversation\"Edit\nBeing better understood\nWorkplace value\nBetter relationships[12]\nA Complete Collection of Genteel and Ingenious Conversation (book)\nAizuchi\nBohm Dialogue\nCompulsive talking\nConversational narcissism\n\"Conversation\" Sharp MP[13] Doyen of the Georgian period conversationalists.\n'King of Clubs' \u2013 famous Whig conversation club\nSpeech (public address)\n^ Warren 2006, p. 8.\n^ Warren 2006, pp. 8\u20139.\n^ Thornbury & Slade 2006, p. 25.\n^ Conklin, Mary Greer. 1738.

        "title": "Limbs of the horse - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "(Redirected from Equine forelimb anatomy)\nSkeletal anatomy of a horse\nThe limbs of the horse are structures made of dozens of bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments that support the weight of the equine body. They include two apparatuses: the suspensory apparatus, which carries much of the weight, prevents overextension of the joint and absorbs shock, and the stay apparatus, which locks major joints in the limbs, allowing horses to remain standing while relaxed or asleep. The limbs play a major part in the movement of the horse, with the legs performing the functions of absorbing impact, bearing weight, and providing thrust. In general, the majority of the weight is borne by the front legs, while the rear legs provide propulsion. The hooves are also important structures, providing support, traction and shock absorption, and containing structures which provide blood flow through the lower leg. As the horse developed as a cursorial animal, with a primary defense mechanism of running over hard ground, its legs evolved to the long, sturdy, light-weight, one-toed form seen today.\nGood conformation in the limbs leads to improved movement and decreased likelihood of injuries. Large differences in bone structure and size can be found in horses used for different activities, but correct conformation remains relatively similar across the spectrum. Structural defects, as well as other problems such as injuries and infections, can cause lameness, or movement at an abnormal gait. Injuries to and problems with horse legs can be relatively minor, such as stocking up, which causes swelling without lameness, or quite serious. Even non-fatal leg injuries can be fatal to horses, as their bodies are designed to bear weight on all four legs and serious problems can result if this is not possible.\n1 Limb anatomy\n1.1 Legs\n1.2 Hoof\n3 Structural defects\n4 Lameness and injuries\nLimb anatomy[edit]\nRear limb anatomy\nHorses are odd-toed ungulates, or members of the order Perissodactyla. This order also includes the extant species of rhinos and tapirs, and many extinct families and species. Members of this order walk on either one toe (like horses) or three toes (like rhinos and tapirs).[1] This is in contrast to even-toed ungulates, members of the order Artiodactyla, which walk on cloven hooves, or two toes. This order includes many species associated with livestock, such as sheep, goats, pigs, cows and camels, as well as species of giraffes, antelopes and deer.[2]\nEquine hooves and legs have evolved over millions of years to the form in which they are found today. The original ancestors of horses had shorter legs, terminating in five-toed feet. Over millennia, a single hard hoof evolved from the middle toe, while the other toes gradually disappeared into the tiny vestigial remnants that are found today on the lower leg bones. Prairie-dwelling equine species developed hooves and longer legs that were both sturdy and light weight to help them evade predators and cover longer distances in search of food. Forest-dwelling species retained shorter legs and three toes, which helped them on softer ground. Approximately 35 million years ago, a global drop in temperature created a major habitat change, leading to the transition of many forests to grasslands. This led to a die-out among forest-dwelling equine species, eventually leaving the long-legged, one-toed Equus of today, which includes the horse, as the sole surviving genus of the Equidae family.[3]\nLegs[edit]\nSkeleton of the lower forelimb\nEach forelimb of the horse runs from the scapula or shoulder blade to the navicular bone. In between are the humerus (arm), radius (forearm), elbow joint, ulna (elbow), carpus (knee) bones and joint, large metacarpal (cannon), small metacarpal (splint), sesamoid, fetlock joint, first phalanx (long pastern), pastern joint, second phalanx (short pastern), coffin joint, outwardly evidenced by the coronary band, and the third phalanx (coffin or pedal) bones. Each hind limb of the horse runs from the pelvis to the navicular bone. After the pelvis come the femur (thigh), patella, stifle joint, tibia, fibula, tarsal (hock) bone and joint, large metatarsal (cannon) and small metatarsal (splint) bones. Below these, the arrangement of sesamoid and phalanx bones and joints is the same as in the forelimbs.[4][5] When the horse is moving, the distal interphalangeal joint (coffin joint) has the highest amount of stresses applied to it of any joint in the body, and it can be significantly affected by trimming and shoeing techniques.[6] Although having a small range of movement, the proximal interphalangeal joint (pastern joint) is also influential to the movement of the horse, and can change the way that various shoeing techniques affect tendons and ligaments in the legs.[7] Due to the horse's development as a cursorial animal (one whose main form of defense is running), its bones evolved to facilitate speed in a forward direction over hard ground, without the need for grasping, lifting or swinging. The ulna shrank in size and its top portion became the point of the elbow, while the bottom fused with the radius above the radiocarpal (knee) joint, which corresponds to the wrist in humans. A similar change occurred in the fibula bone of the hind limbs. These changes were first seen in the genus Merychippus, approximately 17 million years ago.[8][9]\nThe anatomy of the forelegs begin at the scapula. This is the shoulder in which provides the ease of movement as it is connected to various bones surrounding it such as the cervical vertebra (a section of the spine). The next bone is the humerus which leads onto the radius below. The radius is then connected to the bones of the knee. The carpus is located at front of the knee and the pisiform is the back of the knee. Below the knee is the cannon bone which is also known as the 3rd metacarpal. 55 million years ago when the Eohippus existed, the cannon bone used to be the 3rd toe of the foot. Its fusion took place in order to increase height and power of the limb. Behind the cannon bone are the splint bones. The splint bones are also known as the 2nd and 4th metacarpal and fused 25 - 35 million years ago during the time of the Miohippus. They provide extra strength and support of the cannon bone and used to be the 2nd and 4th toes of the foot. Below the cannon bone is the fetlock joint in which lays a structure if many bones. Firstly are the sesamoid bones that act as part of the system that allows the leg to drop as pressure is applied and spring back up as pressure is released. Below this is the proximal phalanx also known as the long pastern which is followed by the middle phalanx (short pastern). Below these bones are the navicular bone and the distal phalanx. the distal phalanx can be known as the coffin bone or the pedal bone. Below the navicular bone is the navicular bursa. There are three main muscle groups of the forelimb. The triceps muscle straightens the elbow and foreleg, running from the elbow to the bottom of the shoulder blade. The muscles which extend the lower leg are called extensor muscles, while the flexion of the lower leg joints is achieved through movement of the flexor muscles. There are five main muscles and muscle groups in the hind legs. The vastus muscle flexes the hind leg and runs from stifle to hip, while the gluteal muscles, the large muscles in the hip, extend the femur. Forward motion and flexion of the hind legs is achieved through the movement of the quadriceps group of muscles on the front of the femur, while the muscles at the back of the hindquarters, called the hamstring group, provide forward motion of the body and rearward extension of the hind limbs. Extension of the hock is achieved by the Achilles tendon, located above the hock.[10]\nThere are two apparatus in the limbs of the horse - the suspensory apparatus and the stay apparatus. The fetlock joint is supported by group of lower leg ligaments, tendons and bones known as the suspensory apparatus.[11] This apparatus carries much of the weight of the horse, both when standing and while moving, and prevents the fetlock joint from hyperextending, especially when the joint is bearing weight. During movement, the apparatus stores and releases energy in the manner of a spring: stretching while the joint is extended and contracting (and thus releasing energy) when the joint flexes.[12] This provides a rebound effect, assisting the foot in leaving the ground.[11] This ability to use stored energy makes horses' gaits more efficient than other large animals, including cattle.[13] The suspensory apparatus consists of the suspensory ligament, the check ligament, the deep digital flexor tendon, the superficial flexor tendon, the common digital extensor tendon and the sesamoid bones.[11]\nHorses use a group of ligaments, tendons and muscles known as the stay apparatus to \"lock\" major joints in the limbs, allowing them to remain standing while relaxed or asleep. The lower part of the stay apparatus consists of the suspensory apparatus, which is the same in both sets of limbs, while the upper portion differs between the fore and hind limbs. The upper portion of the stay apparatus in the forelimbs includes the major attachment, extensor and flexor muscles and tendons. The same portion in the hind limbs consists of the major muscles, ligaments and tendons, as well as the reciprocal joints of the hock and stifle.[14]\nHoof[edit]\nMain article: Horse hoof\nThe coffin bone\nThe hoof of the horse contains over a dozen different structures, including bones, cartilage, tendons and tissues. The coffin or pedal bone is the major hoof bone, supporting the majority of the weight. Under the coffin bone is the navicular bone, itself cushioned by the navicular bursa, a fluid-filled sac. The digital cushion is a blood vessel-filled structure located in the middle of the hoof, which assists with blood flow throughout the leg. At the top of the hoof wall is the corium, tissue which continually produces the horn of the outer hoof shell, which is in turn protected by the periople, a thin outer layer which prevents the interior structures from drying out. The wall is connected to the coffin bone by sensitive laminae, a flexible layer which helps to suspend and protect the coffin bone. The main tendon in the hoof is the deep digital flexor tendon, which connects to the bottom of the coffin bone. The impact zone on the bottom of the hoof includes the sole, which has an outer, insensitive layer and a sensitive inner layer, and the frog, which lies between the heels and assists in shock absorption and blood flow. The final structures are the lateral cartilages, connected to the upper coffin bone, which act as the flexible heels, allowing hoof expansion. These structures allow the hoof to perform many functions. It acts as a support and traction point, shock absorber and system for pumping blood back through the lower limb.[15]\nThe pastern absorbing shock\nMain article: Horse gaits\nA sequence of movements in which a horse takes a step with all four legs is called a stride. During each step, with each leg, a horse completes four movements: the swing phase, the grounding or impact, the support period and the thrust. While the horse uses muscles throughout its body to move, the legs perform the functions of absorbing impact, bearing weight, and providing thrust.[16] Good movement is sound, symmetrical, straight, free and coordinated, all of which depend on many factors, including conformation, soundness, care and training of the horse, and terrain and footing. The proportions and length of the bones and muscles in the legs can significantly impact the way an individual horse moves. The angles of certain bones, especially in the hind leg, shoulders, and pasterns, also affect movement.[17]\nThe forelegs carry the majority of the weight, usually around 60 percent, with exact percentages depending on speed and gait. Movement adds concussive force to weight, increasing the likelihood that a poorly built leg will buckle under the strain.[18][19] At different points in the gallop, all weight is resting on one front hoof, then all on one rear hoof.[19][20] In the sport of dressage, horses are encouraged to shift their weight more to their hindquarters, which enables lightness of the forehand and increased collection.[21] While the forelimbs carry the weight the hind limbs provide propulsion, due to the angle between the stifle and hock. This angle allows the hind legs to flex as weight is applied during the stride, then release as a spring to create forward or upward movement. The propulsion is then transmitted to the forehand through the structures of the back, where the forehand then acts to control speed, balance and turning.[22] The range of motion and propulsion power in horses varies significantly, based on the placement of muscle attachment to bone. The muscles are attached to bone relatively high in the body, which results in small differences in attachment making large differences in movement. A change of .5 inches (1.3 cm) in muscle attachment can affect range of motion by 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) and propulsion power by 20 percent.[23]\n\"Form to function\" is a term used in the equestrian world to mean that the \"correct\" form or structure of a horse is determined by the function for which it will be used. The legs of a horse used for cutting, in which quick starts, stops and turns are required, will be shorter and more thickly built than those of a Thoroughbred racehorse, where forward speed is most important. However, despite the differences in bone structure needed for various uses, correct conformation of the leg remains relatively similar.[19]\nStructural defects[edit]\nSee also: Skeletal system of the horse\nAn Ardennes horse\nComparison of the size and structure of the legs of a Thoroughbred racehorse (left) to that of a draft horse (right)\nThe ideal horse has legs which are straight, correctly set and symmetrical. Correct angles of major bones, clean, well-developed joints and tendons, and well-shaped, properly-proportioned hooves are also necessary for ideal conformation.[24] \"No legs, no horse\"[19] and \"no hoof, no horse\"[25] are common sayings in the equine world. Individual horses may have structural defects, some of which lead to poor movement or lameness. Although certain defects and blemishes may not directly cause lameness, they can often put stress on other parts of the body, which can then cause lameness or injuries.[24] Poor conformation and structural defects do not always cause lameness, however, as was shown by the champion racehorse Seabiscuit, who was considered undersized and knobby-kneed for a Thoroughbred.[18]\nCommon defects of the forelegs include base-wide and base-narrow, where the legs are farther apart or closer together on the ground then they are when they originate in the chest; toeing-in and toeing-out, where the hooves point inwards or outwards; knee deviations to the front (buck knees), rear (calf knees), inside (knock knees) or outside (bowleg); short or long pasterns; and many problems with the feet. Common defects of the hind limbs include the same base-wide and base-narrow stances and problems with the feet as the fore limbs, as well as multiple issues with the angle formed by the hock joint being too angled (sickle-hocked), too straight (straight behind) or having an inward deviation (cow-hocked).[18] Feral horses are seldom found with serious conformation problems in the leg, as foals with these defects are generally easy prey for predators. Foals raised by humans have a better chance for survival, as there are therapeutic treatments that can improve even major conformation problems. However, some of these conformation problems can be transmitted to offspring, and so these horses are a poor choice for breeding stock.[19]\nLameness and injuries[edit]\nA polo pony with its legs wrapped for protection\nMain article: Lameness (equine)\nLameness in horses is movement at an abnormal gait due to pain in any part of the body. It is frequently caused by pain to the shoulders, hips, legs or feet. Lameness can also be caused by abnormalities in the digestive, circulatory and nervous systems. While horses with poor conformation and congenital conditions are more likely to develop lameness, trauma, infection and acquired abnormalities are also causes. The largest cause of poor performance in equine athletes is lameness caused by abnormalities in the muscular or skeletal systems. The majority of lameness is found in the forelimbs, with at least 95 percent of these cases stemming from problems in the structures from the knee down. Lameness in the hind limbs is caused by problems in the hock and/or stifle 80 percent of the time.[26]\nThere are numerous issues that can occur with horses' legs that may not necessarily cause lameness. Stocking up is an issue that occurs in horses that are held in stalls for multiple days after periods of activity. Fluid collects in the lower legs, producing swelling and often stiffness. Although it does not usually cause lameness or other problems, prolonged periods of stocking up can lead to other skin issues. Older horses and horse with heavy muscling are more prone to this condition.[27] A shoe boil is an injury that occurs when there is trauma to the bursal sac of the elbow, causing inflammation and swelling. Multiple occurrences can cause a cosmetic sore and scar tissue, called a capped elbow, or infections. Shoe boils generally occur when a horse hits its elbow with a hoof or shoe when lying down.[28] Windpuffs, or swelling to the back of the fetlock caused by inflammation of the sheaths of the deep digital flexor tendon, appear most often in the rear legs. Soft and fluid-filled, the swelling may initially be accompanied by heat and pain, but can remain long after the initial injury has healed without accompanying lameness. Repeated injuries to the tendon sheath, often caused by excessive training or work on hard surfaces, can cause larger problems and lameness.[29]\nLeg injuries that are not immediately fatal still may be life-threatening because a horse's weight must be distributed evenly on all four legs to prevent circulatory problems, laminitis, and other infections. If a horse loses the use of one leg temporarily, there is the risk that other legs will break down during the recovery period because they are carrying an abnormal weight load. While horses periodically lie down for brief periods of time, a horse cannot remain lying in the equivalent of a human's \"bed rest\" because of the risk of developing sores, internal damage, and congestion.[30]\n^ \"Introduction to the Perissodactyla\".

        "raw_content": "Park Drive (parkway)\nTemplate:Attached KML/Park Drive (parkway)\nMap with Park Drive highlighted in red.\nthe Department of Conservation and Recreation\nMountfort Street\nPark Drive is a mostly one-way, two-lane parkway in the Fenway-Kenmore neighborhood of Boston that runs along the northern and western edges of the Back Bay Fens before ending at Mountfort Street. As part of the Emerald Necklace park system mainly designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in the late 19th century, Park Drive, along with the Back Bay Fens and the Fenway, connects the Commonwealth Avenue Mall and Boylston Street to Beacon Street and the Riverway. For a portion of its length, the parkway runs along the Muddy River and is part of the Metropolitan Park System of Greater Boston's Muddy River Reservation. Like others in the park system, it is maintained by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation.\nPark Drive begins near the intersection of Boylston Street and Ipswich Street and heads south with two one-way lanes to Peterborough Street. From there an additional one-way road begins with parallel parking on both sides. It runs on the north side of the flowing traffic and is separated by a grassy tree-lined median. The road continues in this fashion until it reaches the end of the Fens where the parking side merges into the main roadway along with traffic entering from the Fenway on the other side of the Muddy River. A parking lane is created on the right and the road travels with two one-way lanes towards Brookline Avenue. Two more lanes are added as it crosses Brookline Avenue and passes the Landmark Center in Audubon Circle. The two left lanes become left-turn-only and facilitate access to the Riverway and the reverse direction towards the Fenway. The right two lanes continue straight through the intersection and two lanes in the opposite direction join it. After its intersection with Beacon Street, Park Drive loses a lane in each direction and continues for two more blocks as part of Massachusetts Route 2 before ending at Mountfort Street near the Massachusetts Turnpike.[1][2]\nPark Drive runs alongside the Muddy River from its beginning at Boylston Street to its intersection with Brookline Avenue.[1] The Fenway, which is located on the other side of the Back Bay Fens,[1] allows for continuous travel in the opposite direction of Park Drive. It is accessible from where Park Drive becomes two-way at Brookline Avenue and ends on Boylston Street near where Park Drive begins.[2]\nPark Drive with median separating main road (left) and service road (right).\nEasternmost end of Park Drive near Boylston Street.\nIn 1875, the voters of the City of Boston and the Massachusetts legislature approved the creation of a park commission in order to promote the creation of public parks in the city.[3] Frederick Law Olmsted, the landscape architect of New York City's Central Park, began to spend an increasing amount of time in the area and was asked by the park commission in the mid-to-late 1870s to be the judge of a 23-entry design competition to build a new park. Olmsted felt that all of the submitted plans were subpar and either did not take into account flood control or focused too much on it and neglected the public park aspect.[3][4] The Muddy River and Stony Brook flowed through the Back Bay Fens (an artificial marshland commonly referred to as the Fens) which were at the time subject to tidal flow, storm flooding, and sewage discharge.[3] The disappointed park commission then asked Olmsted to be its professional adviser and main landscape architect.[3] Under his direction, what is now called the Emerald Necklace took shape. He directed the Fens to be dredged, graded, planted, and turned into a seemingly natural salt marsh to absorb and clean the flowing waters.[5] He then built a series of parks stretching from the Fens near the existing Commonwealth Avenue greenway to Franklin Park some miles away.[4] The parks were connected to each other by scenic parkways, one of which is Park Drive around the northern and western sides of the Back Bay Fens. Originally Park Drive was named Audubon Road in conjunction with the adjoining Audubon Circle, at the intersection with Beacon Street, in honor of the Audubon Society and the vast avian population within the Olmsted designed Fens. Nearby Hemenway Street was also named after Harriet_Hemenway one of the founders of the Massachusetts_Audubon_Society The parkway was renamed Park Drive sometime between 1928 and 1938 when alterations to the Fens resulted in a large part of the artificial marshland being filled for more formal parkland .[6] As part of the Metropolitan Park System of Greater Boston, Park Drive is maintained by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR), rather than the City of Boston.[7]\nThe roadway from Boylston Street to Brookline Avenue opened to traffic on January 3, 1892,[8] while surfacing of the remainder of the parkway to Mountfort Street was finished by 1895.[9]\n^ a b c \"Emerald Necklace Parks\" (PDF).

His reputation for extortion earned him the nickname \u201cRoman Big Pocket.\u201d\nMikhail Illarionovich Vorontsov. Born July 12 (23), 1714; died Feb. 15 (26), 1767. Statesman and diplomat; brother of Roman Illarionovich Vorontsov. He played an active role in the palace revolution of Nov. 25, 1741, which brought Elizaveta Petrovna to the throne. In 1744 he became a count and vice chancellor. He advocated an alliance with France. Serving as chancellor from 1758 to 1762, Vorontsov was forced to retire in 1763 because he was a partisan of the overthrown Peter III.\nAleksandr Romanovich Vorontsov. Born Sept. 4 (15), 1741; died Dec. 2 (14), 1805. Statesman and diplomat; son of Roman Illarionovich Vorontsov. In 1761 he was charge d\u2019affaires in Vienna; during 1762-64 he served as plenipotentiary to England, and from 1764 to 1768, to Holland. From 1773 to 1794, Vorontsov was president of the Collegium of Commerce and a member of the Commerce Commission. He pursued a protectionist policy favorable to the Russian export trade. In 1779 he became a senator, and he took part in the conclusion of very important treaties with France (1786) and Sweden (1790), as well as the Peace of Jassy with Turkey (1791). Vorontsov retired from government service during the reign of Pavel I, but he returned to serve as chancellor from 1802 to 1804. He promoted the break with Napoleon I and the creation of the anti-French coalition, and he favored rapprochement with England. A friend of A. N. Radishchev, Vorontsov helped the latter\u2019s family after his arrest.\nSemen Romanovich Vorontsov. Born June 15 (26), 1744; died 1832. Count, diplomat, and statesman; son of Roman Illarionovich Vorontsov and brother of A. R. Vorontsov. In 1782 he became ambassador to Venice, and in 1784, to London. He pursued a policy of strengthening economic and political ties with England. In 1800 the deterioration of relations with England forced Vorontsov\u2019s temporary retirement; however, he returned to government service in 1801 under Alexander I.

        "raw_content": "Incident reports and standardised mortality ratio\nConsideration should be given to whether information from incident reports involving deaths in hospital could enhance consideration of the hospital standardised mortality ratio.\nAs part of Professor Sir Bruce Keogh\u2019s Review of the Quality and Safety of Care and Treatment Provided by 14 Hospital Trusts in England, NHS England provided detailed reports from the National Reporting and Learning System for each of the 14 trusts that were looked at. That process was informative and resulted in key lines of inquiry for the inspection teams on the ground. It in effect acted as a pilot for a stronger method of utilising NRLS data in Care Quality Commission inspections. It was also found that data from the National Reporting and Learning System correlated well with other datasets to indicate problems with safety. NHS England will work with the Care Quality Commission to build on the learning from Sir Bruce Keogh\u2019s Review to address this.\nNHS England is also leading work to develop proposals for ensuring every trust undertakes retrospective case note reviews of patient deaths according to a consistent methodology to further encourage learning from adverse events. This will help trusts address common issues associated with avoidable hospital mortality, such as management of deteriorating patients.\nNHS England was already exploring the development of a standardised process for supporting the NHS to undertake retrospective case note review. Introducing a national standard approach for undertaking case note review would build on innovative work at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and has the potential to enable NHS Trusts to develop a better understanding of actually avoidable deaths.\nAlthough case note reviews are a \u201cgold standard approach\u201d they can be time and resource intensive.\nNHS England are moving ahead now to develop a national rate and produce an estimate number of avoidable deaths for each hospital. This will be done by someone independent of Trusts and the numbers will be made public. Trusts will be expected to report annually to the Secretary of State for Health on their actions to reduce avoidable deaths.",

Not given to emotional extremes, they are unlikely to cause either rancor or great love among family.

        "title": "Hearing Concerns Proposed California Regulations for Metal Shredders -- Environmental Protection",
        "raw_content": "The California Department of Toxic Substances Control will host an informal public workshop on June 26 in Sacramento to present information on proposed regulations to establish a Conditional Exclusion for Chemically Treated Metal Shredder Residue. The department also is proposing the new regulations to add safeguards that increase protections for human health, safety, and the environment.\nDTSC completed a comprehensive analysis of metal shredding facilities, their processes and wastes, and potential impacts on human health and the environment, pursuant to a 2014 bill passed by state legislators. That law required metal shredding facilities to be thoroughly evaluated and regulated by DTSC. The department published its findings in a report titled \"Draft Evaluation and Analysis of Metal Shredding Facilities and Metal Shredder Wastes\" in January 2018.\nThe report says there are estimated to be 2,500 scrap metal recycling facilities in California, and combined they collected and processed for export an estimated 7 million tons of scrap metal, worth $5 billion, in 2014. Currently there are six metal shredding facilities in the state, it says.\nThe department plans to set enforceable operating requirements for metal shredding facilities through a hazardous waste permit, and it plans to issue regulations that exclude Chemically Treated Metal Shredder Residue (CTMSR) from classification as a hazardous waste, with certain limitations. The draft report says the department has concluded that CTMSR can continue to be classified as a nonhazardous waste and can continue to be disposed of, or used as Alternative Daily Cover, in solid waste landfills in California, with certain limitations.\nStakeholders can attend the three-hour workshop in-person or view the presentation via a live webcast. The workshop will be held at DTSC's Sacramento Regional Office and is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. local time.\nCalifornia law defines a \"metal shredding facility\" as an operation that uses a shredding technique to process end-of-life vehicles, appliances, and other forms of scrap metal to facilitate the separation and sorting of ferrous metals, nonferrous metals, and other recyclable materials from non-recyclable materials. A \"metal shredding facility\" does not include a feeder yard, a metal crusher, or a metal baler, if that facility does not otherwise conduct metal shredding operations. The shredding of scrap metal, such as old cars, results in a mixture of recyclable materials (such as ferrous metals and nonferrous metals) and non-recyclable material -- metal shredder waste, which consists mainly of glass, fiber, rubber, automobile fluids, dirt, and plastics found in automobiles and household appliances. Because scrap metal contains regulated hazardous constituents, it can contaminate and ultimately cause metal shredder waste to exhibit a characteristic of hazardous waste for toxicity. In a 2002 draft report on auto shredder waste, DTSC showed that metal shredder waste often exceeded the soluble threshold limit concentrations (STLCs) for lead, cadmium, and zinc using the Waste Extraction Test method and the total threshold limit concentration (TTLC) for lead, copper, and zinc.",

It\u2019s possible Rippon would have to miss that event anyway to be part of the team figure skating competition.\nThe widespread belief that Pence supports gay conversion therapy comes from a statement he made in 2000 on his congressional campaign website: \u201cResources should be directed toward those institutions which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior.\u201d While he didn\u2019t explicitly mention gay conversion therapy, leaders in the LGBT community have said they believe that\u2019s what Pence meant in light of his long-standing opposition to gay rights. In November 2016, the New York Times reported that Pence's spokesman at the time, Marc Lotter, denied that Pence supports the practice.\nAfter publication of this story Wednesday, Pence's press secretary Alyssa Farah emailed a statement to USA TODAY Sports: \u201cThe vice president is proud to lead the U.S. delegation to the Olympics and support America\u2019s incredible athletes. This accusation is totally false and has no basis in fact.

        "raw_content": "Alumni Spotlight: 2011 ESTEEM Graduate Kristopher Priemer\nKristopher Priemer, a 2011 ESTEEM graduate, started the University of Notre Dame ESTEEM program after he received his B.A. in Mathematics and a Minor in Computer Science from Saint Louis University in 2009. During his time here at Notre Dame, Kristopher worked with Professor Amitabh Chaudhary on a project they titled \u201cDemand Forecasting for Perishables: Predicting Using Machine Learning Algorithms.\u201d This project addresses the difficulty that many industries face in matching supply with demand. In particular, Kris and Professor Chaudhary focused on the food industry, where spoilage rates are as high as 40%. In order to increase the efficacy of supply chain management, Kris worked to develop a business plan to implement Professor Chaudhary\u2019s decision-making algorithms. The application of this software is not limited to the food industry, and may be further expanded to increase efficiency in supply and demand forecasting in the fashion, holiday merchandise, vaccine, and high-tech gadget industries as well.\nKristopher related that while his experience at SLU provided \u201can in depth understanding of the technical aspects of mathematics and computer science,\u201d it was his experiences at ESTEEM that have given him \u201cthe tools to convert these ideas and concepts into sustainable commercial products.\u201d While in the ESTEEM Program Kris was instrumental in promoting entrepreneurship on campus and took full opportunity of all of the entrepreneurship related activities and events on campus. He was an advisory council member for the Four Horsemen Society, a society who's mission is to promote engineering, science, and technology entrepreneurship at Notre Dame. Kris was also a semi-finalist in the 2010-2011 McCloskey Business Plan competition with his venture Mercuri Trading, a firm offering an organized secondary market for trading municipal bonds.\nKris is currently continuing to develop his capstone thesis business plan and his startup venture, Mercuri Trading. Kris is working to provide financial firms with innovative back office software as a service (SaaS) tools. Software as a service, sometimes referred to as \"on-demand software,\" is a common delivery model in which applications are hosted by a vendor or service provider and made available to customers over a network, typically the internet. The ultimate goal of both ventures is to facilitate efficient work and communication in client companies in order to build revenues, manage workflows, and sustain growth.\nGood Luck Kris!",

The judge called the bank\u2019s handling of the five year long litigation \u201chighly reprehensible.\u201d\nKodak, who has filed for bankruptcy, has requested the court\u2019s permission to issue bonuses to selected personnel to prevent them from being hired away by others. About $8.5 million of the $13.5 million would go to middle management employees and above. This is reminiscent of Enron, which also paid post-bankruptcy bonuses to upper levels of management even as regular employees saw their retirement funds nearly disappear when the company\u2019s stock plummeted.\nIn a disappointing piece of news, a subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson was found guilty by an Arkansas jury of deliberately hiding risks associated with a multi-billion dollar drug. I say disappointing because I believe that J&J has a long history of ethical behavior dating back to its handling of the tylenol poisoning event many years ago. This week\u2019s decision was against a subsidiary of the company.\nAnd on tax prep week, here\u2019s this interesting item. According to a report from the nonprofit taxpayer watchdog organization Good Jobs First, a number of states are allowing employers to retain the state income tax they have been withholding from employee paychecks. Sounds like a case of subsidizing the company\u2019s profits with money taken from the employee. While one can understand the rationale if the companies involved were small businesses, the report states that corporate beneficiaries of state largess include such profitable enterprises as General Electric, Goldman Sachs, Procter & Gamble, Toyota and Chrysler among others.\nPosted in Banks and Financial Industry, Organizational Culture and Ethics, Week in Review | Leave a Comment",

        "raw_content": "Book Review/Notes: The River of Doubt: Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s Darkest Journey\nRoosevelt\u2019s expedition exposed the horrors people commit when desperate, but it also revealed the vigor one can hold when dying. The River of Doubt is about endurance, discipline, and determination. It is a story of, as Roosevelt would put it, \u201clabor and strife . . . toil and effort.\u201d That is the core. This book is called \u201cThe River of Doubt,\u201d after all. The antagonist is doubt and the river itself, and the protagonist is the drive of Roosevelt and his team.\nThey set out to map the River of Doubt, a river even C\u00e2ndido Rondon, Brazil\u2019s greatest explorer, knew nothing about. The river hid schools of piranha capable of eating alive anything that fell into the water, and the jungle around it hid cannibalistic tribes armed with poison arrows, deadly vipers which slithered between twigs, and poisonous frogs that could kill with a touch. Even for someone who lived as physically demanding a life as Roosevelt, this would be a great struggle for the 55-year old preacher of the Strenuous Life. Still, he marched forward.\nTheodore Roosevelt is one of the toughest SOBs who ever lived, and The River of Doubt reveals why.\nNo notes here. Only a brief story. If you like the story, you\u2019ll like the book.\nRoosevelt was running for a third term as President of the United States. He\u2019s in Milkwaukee, Wisconsin, about to give a speech. Theodore was one of the most popular men in America at the time. Even so, some viewed his third term as a step towards monarchy. In fact, one man feared this step so bad that he wanted to halt Roosevelt\u2019s movements permanently.\nJohn Schrank, a New York bartender, walked up to Roosevelt and shot him in the chest. But Roosevelt survived, and he was not halted. Actually, Roosevelt insisted that he still give his speech that. In response to the assassination attempt, Roosevelt simply raised his arm, showed off his wounds, and shouted, with his distinguished wit and unshakable will, \u201cit takes more than that to kill a bull moose!\u201d\nbook review/notes, candice millard, candido rondon, darkest journey, john schrank, new york bartender, president of the united states, the river of doubt, theodore roosevelt\n\u2190 Book Review/Notes: Meditations by Marcus Aurelius\nBook Review/Notes: A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy \u2192",

For the first time, this process opens the brownfield market to large scale investment capital and enables owners of contaminated property to finance their environmental [\u2026]\nhttps://facilityexecutive.com/2006/04/funding-accelerates-brownfield-redevelopment-from-niche-to-industry/\nHome \u00bb Archive \u00bb Topics \u00bb Facility Management \u00bb Funding Accelerates Brownfield Redevelopment From Niche to Industry\nFunding Accelerates Brownfield Redevelopment From Niche to Industry\nBrownfields Capital, a specialty lending and investment management firm, has announced the closing and funding of its first project, Gold Hill Mesa, a prime urban property in Colorado Springs, CO. For the first time, this process opens the brownfield market to large scale investment capital and enables owners of contaminated property to finance their environmental liabilities without negative impact to their core business, while unlocking and participating in the redeveloped value of the property.\nFor more on this topic, see \u201cBuilding On Brownfields\u201d from the Business Facilities archive.\nThe patented process and financial instrument introduced by Brownfields Capital is similar to past innovations in real estate financing, such as Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities (CMBS). The Brownfields Capital platform is a transaction process coupled with a financial instrument called a Brownfields Value Contract (BVC), designed to enable institutional and private capital to be deployed to restore environmentally contaminated properties to productive use. In addition, the BVC actively shields investors, owners, future owners and communities from current and future risks associated with environmental impairment.\n\u201cThe brownfields real estate market is enormous and has been estimated by industry observers at approximately $2 trillion. But to date, less than $3 billion of capital has been raised to target investments in environmentally impaired properties because of the real or perceived risks,\u201d says Cheryl Hoffman, the founder and CEO of Brownfields Capital. \u201cBrownfields Capital insulates institutional investors from the reach of environmental law and simultaneously provides owners a fully financed capital structure and business plan.\u201d\nThe Brownfields Capital Platform\nThe Brownfields Capital process aligns all parties needed to characterize, remediate, insure, entitle, land-plan, and redevelop polluted sites in a single set of interdependent agreements before significant capital is invested. Aligning the interests of all involved parties and providing all capital through a single financial instrument mitigates the negative impact of time delays, transaction costs, and other unknown risks.\nThe Brownfields Capital process recognizes that brownfields redevelopment differs from traditional real estate development, thus the capital structure must be different, too. The process creates a special purpose vehicle (SPV), which is an entity formed with the expertise to own and redevelop the property and finances that entity through a Brownfields Value Contract (BVC). The SPV is created when the owner of the contaminated site contributes or sells the property and all of its rights to the SPV and takes back marketable equity ownership in the SPV. The fully capitalized SPV owns and controls the site and assumes responsibility for remediation and redevelopment, allowing the site owner to remove any contingent or actual liabilities associated with the site from its financial statement. The establishment of the SPV, and its supporting business plan, creates a way to finance cleanup and development away from the owner\u2019s balance sheet and protects its shareholders from losses and risks.\nBy financing the full redevelopment as a fully committed corporate debt facility, the cost of capital is reduced to the lowest possible level and thus creates the highest and only predictable equity residual. At the same time, risks to all parties are substantially mitigated, including many risks of traditional development, as well as environmental risks.\n\u201cThrough the process, distressed, immobilized owners of contaminated real estate can now be converted into willing sellers, unlocking access to some of the most desirable inventory of urban development in the country,\u201d says Eugene Mercy Jr., chairman of Brownfields Capital and a senior director (retired) of Goldman Sachs and Company. \u201cIn turn, large-scale investors can invest in an unexplored but vast real estate market with premium, non-correlated returns.\u201d\nGold Hill Mesa Development\nFor more than 50 years, Gold Hill Mesa, a 210-acre former gold mill site located in the heart of Colorado Springs, remained idle as a result of environmental concerns. Colorado Springs, one of America\u2019s top 10 places to do business according to Forbes magazine, has fully developed its urban greenfield land, leaving Gold Hill Mesa, nestled between the Front Range and downtown, as one of the last prime inner city parcels of land for development.\nThe land is the former site of the Golden Cycle Mill, a gold and silver mill that began operations in 1906 and processed over 800 tons of ore per day. Operations ceased in 1949, leaving behind a mesa comprised of 14 million tons of gold tailing-infused soil. Over the past three decades, attempts to reprocess the tailings to recover remaining metals or redevelop the site have failed.\n\u201cBefore Brownfields Capital, financing the redevelopment of a brownfield site could be even more difficult than the clean-up itself,\u201d says Robert Hadley, a principal of Gold Hill Mesa Partners, LLC, owner of the Gold Hill Mesa property. \u201cAs an owner of a brownfield trying to develop in accordance with our approved Voluntary Clean-Up Plan, we were challenged from every angle. Traditional bank construction capital simply wasn\u2019t available. Brownfields Capital unlocked the value of the clean land, allowing us to attract the capital we needed for best-use redevelopment.\u201d\nIn March 2006, Brownfields Capital provided Gold Hill Mesa Partners a $19 million Brownfields Value Contract with an expected term of 3.25 years. The BVC provides revolving debt financing for the complete remediation and development of the site.\nThrough the 100% project financing commitment from Brownfields Capital, Gold Hill Mesa Partners, LLC has started clean-up and development of the site. The plan envisions a mixed-use development, drawing on the influences of New Urbanism: a dense commercial and residential core anchored by a community center with parks and residences. A total of 877 residential units are being developed, consisting of condos, town homes, and single-family detached units of various sizes. John Laing Homes, a prominent national builder with a strong presence in Colorado Springs, has committed to purchase more than 40% of the available lots once finished. The development is currently underway with revenues expected to begin in the summer of 2006, and the community center expected to open in the fall of 2006.\nConstruction On The Spiral In NYC Set To BeginThe 65-story building will feature a continuous green pathway wrapped around its fa\u00e7ade, providing occupants access to landscaped, outdoor spaces.\nPrevious articleDirections: Asbestos In The Building\nNext articleHaworth releases 2005 corporate sustainability report",

        "raw_content": "CTT | The Error of Balaam\nWhile writing the closing portion of yesterday\u2019s post, I made a reference to Balaam\u2019s donkey. Today\u2019s CTT post will explore the story of Balaam, particularly from the perspective of the New Testament.\nIn reviewing the first draft of my post, I caught an error that really got me thinking about Balaam and forced me to rewrite that reference. I caught myself saying, \u201cIf God can speak through a donkey\u2026\u201d Have you ever heard that before? Clearly I had, and if I\u2019m not mistaken I\u2019ve heard it in the same light as the List we reviewed recently, basically if God can talk through a donkey then He can use anyone for His purposes. Now, we could make this an Old Testament study where we dive into the story of Balaam and where it takes place in Israel\u2019s exodus out of Egypt and into the land of Promise, but for today I want to limit our scope to that of the New Testament. Balaam is referenced 3 times in the New Testament (by Peter, Jude, and in Revelation) and each time he is referenced in relation to false teaching. Let\u2019s begin by seeing how Peter references Balaam. The entire chapter is devoted to this topic so let\u2019s just read the whole thing.\n2 Peter 2 (ESV)\n2 But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. 3 And in their greed they will exploit you with false words. Their condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.\n4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment; 5 if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6 if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, making them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; 7 and if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked 8 (for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, he was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); 9 then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment,10 and especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority.\nBold and willful, they do not tremble as they blaspheme the glorious ones, 11 whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord. 12 But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction, 13 suffering wrong as the wage for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, while they feast with you. 14 They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children! 15 Forsaking the right way, they have gone astray. They have followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved gain from wrongdoing, 16 but was rebuked for his own transgression; a speechless donkey spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet\u2019s madness.\n17 These are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm. For them the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved. 18 For, speaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely escaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them. 22 What the true proverb says has happened to them: \u201cThe dog returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.\u201d\nSo, yeah\u2026 Peter wastes no time mincing his words. At the end of his reference to Balaam\u2019s donkey, we see clearly the error in my first (unpublished) draft. God didn\u2019t speak through the donkey, the speechless donkey spoke. So, let\u2019s turn to Numbers chapter 22 to read the account of Balaam and his donkey.\n22 Then the people of Israel set out and camped in the plains of Moab beyond the Jordan at Jericho. 2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites. 3 And Moab was in great dread of the people, because they were many. Moab was overcome with fear of the people of Israel. 4 And Moab said to the elders of Midian, \u201cThis horde will now lick up all that is around us, as the ox licks up the grass of the field.\u201d So Balak the son of Zippor, who was king of Moab at that time, 5 sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor at Pethor, which is near the River in the land of the people of Amaw, to call him, saying, \u201cBehold, a people has come out of Egypt. They cover the face of the earth, and they are dwelling opposite me. 6 Come now, curse this people for me, since they are too mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive them from the land, for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed.\u201d\n7 So the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the fees for divination in their hand. And they came to Balaam and gave him Balak\u2019s message. 8 And he said to them, \u201cLodge here tonight, and I will bring back word to you, as the Lord speaks to me.\u201d So the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam. 9 And God came to Balaam and said, \u201cWho are these men with you?\u201d 10 And Balaam said to God, \u201cBalak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent to me, saying, 11 \u2018Behold, a people has come out of Egypt, and it covers the face of the earth. Now come, curse them for me. Perhaps I shall be able to fight against them and drive them out.\u2019\u201d 12 God said to Balaam, \u201cYou shall not go with them. You shall not curse the people, for they are blessed.\u201d 13 So Balaam rose in the morning and said to the princes of Balak, \u201cGo to your own land, for the Lord has refused to let me go with you.\u201d 14 So the princes of Moab rose and went to Balak and said, \u201cBalaam refuses to come with us.\u201d\nOkay, so we have Moab and Midian conspiring to stop the advance of Israel. Balaam is not among the Israelites. Nevertheless, God went to Balaam to warn him not to curse His people. Balaam refuses to go with the men\u2026 but notice that he didn\u2019t tell them all that the Lord had told him, and there is no mention of returning the fees for divination. He kept the money paid to him, and withheld information. Let\u2019s continue on.\nNumbers 22:15 Once again Balak sent princes, more in number and more honorable than these. 16 And they came to Balaam and said to him, \u201cThus says Balak the son of Zippor: \u2018Let nothing hinder you from coming to me, 17 for I will surely do you great honor, and whatever you say to me I will do. Come, curse this people for me.\u2019\u201d 18 But Balaam answered and said to the servants of Balak, \u201cThough Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the command of the Lord my God to do less or more. 19 So you, too, please stay here tonight, that I may know what more the Lord will say to me.\u201d 20 And God came to Balaam at night and said to him, \u201cIf the men have come to call you, rise, go with them; but only do what I tell you.\u201d 21 So Balaam rose in the morning and saddled his donkey and went with the princes of Moab.\n22 But God\u2019s anger was kindled because he went, and the angel of the Lord took his stand in the way as his adversary. Now he was riding on the donkey, and his two servants were with him. 23 And the donkey saw the angel of the Lord standing in the road, with a drawn sword in his hand. And the donkey turned aside out of the road and went into the field. And Balaam struck the donkey, to turn her into the road. 24 Then the angel of the Lord stood in a narrow path between the vineyards, with a wall on either side. 25 And when the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, she pushed against the wall and pressed Balaam\u2019s foot against the wall. So he struck her again. 26 Then the angel of the Lord went ahead and stood in a narrow place, where there was no way to turn either to the right or to the left. 27 When the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, she lay down under Balaam. And Balaam\u2019s anger was kindled, and he struck the donkey with his staff. 28 Then the Lord opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, \u201cWhat have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?\u201d 29 And Balaam said to the donkey, \u201cBecause you have made a fool of me. I wish I had a sword in my hand, for then I would kill you.\u201d 30 And the donkey said to Balaam, \u201cAm I not your donkey, on which you have ridden all your life long to this day? Is it my habit to treat you this way?\u201d And he said, \u201cNo.\u201d\nNow this transition is admittedly difficult. Something is missing between God allowing Balaam to go and God\u2019s anger being kindled because he went. The text doesn\u2019t say explicitly what it was about his going that angered the Lord God. Peter\u2019s depiction of Balaam gives us our best answer, \u201cwho loved gain from wrongdoing\u201d. The God the Holy Spirit gave Peter the reason, it was because Balaam loved gain. Just as he took the fees from the first entourage and only told them half of the message, this time he tells them nothing at all, and saddles up his donkey and follows them. God judges the heart, and was angered by what He saw in Balaam.\nThe donkey sees the angel of the Lord. Now, many scholars believe that OT references to the \u201cangel of the Lord\u201d are references to Jesus before the virgin birth. This fits how the Gospel of John introduces Jesus and it is also part of our understanding of the Trinity. The donkey sees the Lord and attempts to avoid certain judgement as is punished by Balaam for it twice. Finally, she just lays down and receives a third punishment. The Lord opens her mouth and she pleads her case with Balaam.\nBalaam is so angry he doesn\u2019t seem alarmed by the sudden speech from his donkey, and he doesn\u2019t immediately assume the Lord God is involved. Balaam practiced divination for money. Let\u2019s see what happens next.\nNumbers 22:31 Then the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, with his drawn sword in his hand. And he bowed down and fell on his face. 32 And the angel of the Lord said to him, \u201cWhy have you struck your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out to oppose you because your way is perverse before me. 33 The donkey saw me and turned aside before me these three times. If she had not turned aside from me, surely just now I would have killed you and let her live.\u201d 34 Then Balaam said to the angel of the Lord, \u201cI have sinned, for I did not know that you stood in the road against me. Now therefore, if it is evil in your sight, I will turn back.\u201d 35 And the angel of the Lord said to Balaam, \u201cGo with the men, but speak only the word that I tell you.\u201d So Balaam went on with the princes of Balak.\nThe portion in bold and underlined is important for later. For now, we see that this angel of the Lord did not rebuke Balaam for prostrating before Him and spoke to Balaam as his Lord, not a messenger from the Lord. Here, we see Balaam repent, and the Lord tells him to go and only speak what he is told. In the next 2 chapters we see Balaam obey the Word of the Lord and speak only blessings upon the people of God, the Israelites, and then departs from Balak. But is that all of the story? Let\u2019s look at how Balaam is referenced in Revelation.\nRevelation 2:12-17 (ESV)\n12 \u201cAnd to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: \u2018The words of him who has the sharp two-edged sword.13 \u201c\u2018I know where you dwell, where Satan\u2019s throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not deny my faith even in the days of Antipas my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells. 14 But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, so that they might eat food sacrificed to idols and practice sexual immorality. 15 So also you have some who hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans. 16 Therefore repent. If not, I will come to you soon and war against them with the sword of my mouth. 17 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.\u2019\nWait a second\u2026 where did we see sexual immorality and eating of food sacrificed to idols in relation to Balaam? Well, to see how Balaam is involved we need to start in Numbers 31 and then reach back to chapter 25.\nNumbers 31:1-4 (ESV) 1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 \u201cAvenge the people of Israel on the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people.\u201d 3 So Moses spoke to the people, saying, \u201cArm men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian to execute the Lord\u2019s vengeance on Midian. 4 You shall send a thousand from each of the tribes of Israel to the war.\u201d\nNumbers 31:7-12 (ESV) 7 They warred against Midian, as the Lord commanded Moses, and killed every male. 8 They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. And they also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword. 9 And the people of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones, and they took as plunder all their cattle, their flocks, and all their goods. 10 All their cities in the places where they lived, and all their encampments, they burned with fire, 11 and took all the spoil and all the plunder, both of man and of beast. 12 Then they brought the captives and the plunder and the spoil to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the people of Israel, at the camp on the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.\nNumbers 31:15-16 (ESV) 15 Moses said to them, \u201cHave you let all the women live? 16 Behold, these, on Balaam\u2019s advice, caused the people of Israel to act treacherously against the Lord in the incident of Peor, and so the plague came among the congregation of the Lord.\nOkay, now we see that Balaam was responsible for the incident of Peor. What happened at Peor?\n1 While Israel lived in Shittim, the people began to whore with the daughters of Moab. 2 These invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods. 3 So Israel yoked himself to Baal of Peor. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel. 4 And the Lord said to Moses, \u201cTake all the chiefs of the people and hang them in the sun before the Lord, that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.\u201d 5 And Moses said to the judges of Israel, \u201cEach of you kill those of his men who have yoked themselves to Baal of Peor.\u201d 6 And behold, one of the people of Israel came and brought a Midianite woman to his family, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of the whole congregation of the people of Israel, while they were weeping in the entrance of the tent of meeting. 7 When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose and left the congregation and took a spear in his hand 8 and went after the man of Israel into the chamber and pierced both of them, the man of Israel and the woman through her belly. Thus the plague on the people of Israel was stopped. 9 Nevertheless, those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.\nRemember the test of a Prophet isn\u2019t limited to whether or not the sign or wonder comes to pass; it includes his doctrine, what he preaches/teaches. If the sign comes to pass and he leads Israel to worship false gods, strange gods, gods you do not know, he is to be put to death. Balaam was responsible for this stumbling block placed before Israel, for the sexual immorality and the worshiping of the false god (Baal) of Peor. Throughout the Old Testament, idolatry and sexual immorality are linked. Our God is a jealous God and He will have NO OTHER God before Him (the first and greatest commandment). And as a result of the advice of Balaam, the false prophet, 24,000 died by the plague.\nIt isn\u2019t enough that at one time the Word of the Lord was faithfully spoken. God remains sovereign. Balaam\u2019s obedience to bless the Children of God required direct intervention by the Lord, and Balaam quickly sinned and lead Israel to sin against God. That is why we see his name invoked in the New Testament as an example of a False Prophet and Teacher.\nWhile we didn\u2019t get to Balaam\u2019s mention in Jude, it is in the same light. In closing, I\u2019d like to once-again share from the doxology of Jude\nJude 1: 24-25 (ESV) Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.\nChristian Living, Complete the Thought (CTT), Old TestamentaundefinednundefinedgundefinedeundefinedlundefinedoundefinedfundefinedtundefinedhundefinedeundefinedLundefinedoundefinedrundefineddundefinedbundefinedaundefinedaundefinedlundefinedbundefinedaundefined\n\u2190 Pentecostals|Help Me Help You\nDiM | \u201cGreater\u201d by Mercy Me \u2192",

Certain provisions will limit the number of homeowners who qualify, including a requirement that lenders write down loans to no more than 90 percent of a home's value. The program starts Oct. 1 and ends Sept. 30, 2011.\nThe Housing Assistance Tax Act of 2008 also includes these income tax provisions:\nCredit for first-time home buyers, but it's really a loan\nFirst-time home buyers are allowed a refundable tax credit of up to $7,500 for homes bought between April 9, 2008, and April 1, 2009. This is really an interest-free loan which is repaid (\"recaptured\") over 15 years. A taxpayer who is liable for the recapture tax must file an income tax return, even if not otherwise required to do so. The credit is phased out for taxpayers with adjusted gross income between $75,000 and $95,000 ($150,000 and $170,000 for joint filers). A \u201cfirst-time home buyer\u201d is an individual who had no present ownership interest in a principal residence during the three-year period ending on the date of the purchase of the principal residence to which the credit applies. If the individual is married, neither the individual nor his spouse may have had a present ownership interest in a principal residence during that three-year period. Taxpayers who purchase a residence after December 31, 2008, and before July 1, 2009, may elect to treat the purchase as made on December 31, 2008. Making this election allows the credit to be claimed on an original or amended 2008 tax return.\n\"Above the line\" property tax deduction\nFor 2008 only, taxpayers who use the standard deduction can deduct an additional amount for state or local real property taxes. The additional deduction is limited to a maximum of $500 ($1,000 for joint filers).",

        "raw_content": "It has been reported that 80 percent of Internet users look for health information online. For that reason, web development for orthopedic practices is a key component of a good marketing strategy for any business within this industry.\nWeb Development for Orthopedic Practices\nYour website is like your online business card\u2026except its even better! Not only should it show off the professionalism and uniqueness of your particular practice, but it should be dynamic and engaging as well. It is a place where patients and prospective patients can come for updated information and to interact with your business online. Now that you know why web design is important for the medical field, here are a few steps that should be used in web development for orthopedic practices. The key areas to look at are content, commerce, and design.\nIn the world of web development for orthopedic practices, information is currency. When prospective patients come to your website, they have come to you because they have a need and they are first looking for information to answer their questions and to solve this need. To help them in this matter, your information has to be concise and easy to read. First impressions are everything. Information should be readily accessible and updated often.\nHaving a website that accepts online payments can be very useful for a medical practice. This not only allows you to collect money, but it makes it easier on your customers as well. People have gotten used to paying bills online, so in order to be user-friendly, your website should allow your customers to review balances owed and make payments as needed. Setting up an e-commerce aspect of your site actually has several advantages.\nFirst, it provides your customers with ultimate convenience. If they want to pay at four in the morning, that\u2019s no problem because websites don\u2019t close.\nFor you, there are massive savings in overhead costs. There\u2019s no need to rent additional space for collections, no need to buy more equipment, and no need to hire people to process payments.\nWhen you\u2019re consider the value of web development for orthopedic practices, think about how important the appearance of a site is to a potential patient. You can have the best content in the world, but if your website is ugly, hard to use, and not easy to navigate, it won\u2019t work. If your practice provides a professional service, your website should reflect that. The first thing a customer notices when they visit your website is its overall appearance. Before they read anything, they are already forming ideas about your competence based on whether the appearance of your site generates a sense of confidence in them concerning your professionalism.\nAppearance is certainly important, but a good design company will go a step further by providing excellent formatting, organization and navigation. On a quick glance, a customer should be able to see where major topics are and how to get to them. With a simple, accessible tab bar across the top of the page and an in-site search bar installed, your site users should be able to find whatever they\u2019re looking for on your website.\n3 Useful Internet Marketing Ideas for Orthopedic Practices",

        "raw_content": "How to Move Heavy Equipment?\nWhether it comes to a new or used piece of equipment, each of them is valuable. The price for such machines is indeed very impressive, especially if you additionally buy any special accessories. Another important thing about heavy equipment is that its weight is usually far too heavy to be moved by regular moving companies. Hence the question: how to move heavy equipment so that everything arrives intact and on time?\nIt goes without saying that if you do not know how to move heavy equipment, you need to ask professional shipping and freight companies to help. However, what you might not know about moving heavy equipment is that you can hire experienced art shipping companies for this job. Why? The fact is that if a company has all the required resources and knowledge to ship fine art of any size, weight, shape, and value, it can also ship heavy equipment. For example, at Fine Art Shippers, we know how to move heavy equipment both nationally and internationally, which allows us to offer comprehensive heavy equipment transport services to businesses and individuals from around the United States.\nFrom huge outdoor sculptures and the entire museum exhibitions to various vehicles and office equipment, our team of international freight shippers comes across lots of large and heavy objects almost every day. All these items pose a number of specific logistical problems, and their safety in transit is always a key concern. So how to move heavy equipment safely?\nIn addition to certain experience and skills, it is important to use professional tools intended to make the moving process easier while providing the transported items with the high level of protection they deserve. In most cases, such tools include:\nskates that are used to move equipment and appliances across the floor;\nroller skids that can be bolted to heavy machinery;\ntoe jacks that are used to lift the equipment up;\nair bearings for lifting equipment weighing several tons;\nhand truck dollies that are used to move mid-size heavy equipment;\nflat beds and special moving trucks for long-distance transportation of machinery.\nThis list is certainly not exhaustive as every transported item has its own specifications and moving requirements. At Fine Art Shippers, we know how to move heavy equipment of any type, so whatever your local or international shipping needs, please feel free to contact our team. We will offer the safest and most cost-effective solution to your problem!",

I was able to continue working this entire year without any interruptions. This is a very good day for Universe Family Healers everywhere. No longer are we ever going to be shut down, turned away, and left forgotten. We are always going to have our jobs and money to keep going. This day is a very powerful day. I can say with full knowing that as a result of me being able to continue in a work place without being \u201cbullied\u201d out of it, all of the good people of this planet will gain full control once again.\nOf course, the good people have to be in control. otherwise the planet dies. And that is why there is so much talking about finding another planet with life. That is just the spirit world trying to find another place to invade and continue its destructive ways. But, even though we read about it everyday, it is never going to happen. There is no other life out there anywhere.\nAnd so, the Universe is taking these spiritual invaders away from humans. The Universe can do this. It is a powerful magnetic field of positive energy. It pulls this mass of negativity out and into a vast positive energy field. Spiritual energy is totally neutralized and never dealt with again. Universe Family Healers assist with this process by allowing the Universe to be in contact and remove the energy from the human body. A constant pulling is what occurs, 24/7. I call this the purge and merge effect which is how Universe Family Healers perform their very unique and powerful healing ability.\nI had to post a positive reason to celebrate 420 day. I know there are others using this day for other reasons. But, I also have a very good reason to mark the importance of this day.\nHappy 420 day, the return to reality for all Universe Family Healers everywhere on planet Earth.",

        "raw_content": "April 19, 2013 Creative MarketingAdvertising for Humanity, Creativity, Dan Pallotta, Discussion, Fletch Creative, Harvard Business Review, Marketing, Thinking outside the boxKeith Fletcher\nIn the interests of fair coverage of our creativity topic this month, let\u2019s discuss what can turn creativity into a drag. Let\u2019s talk about when to stop being creative.\nIn this article, a demand is made that we \u201cstop thinking outside the box\u201d. This may be surprising, but the points that the author makes are valid. Why are we including an opinion that seems to be the polar opposite of everything that has been said in our Creativity series up to this point? Simply put, while all creativity is wonderful and worthwhile, creativity for the sake of being creative is rarely beneficial in the business world. Focused creativity, as mentioned in our previous posts, is the key.\nThe title of the article is somewhat misleading \u2014 and perhaps the title of this one is as well \u2014 it is not, as it might sound, an argument against creativity. The argument isn\u2019t to actually stop being creative. The basic argument here is that in order to focus your creativity and allow the end product to be as relevant and meaningful as possible to your audience, you cannot totally reject the \u201cbox\u201d that holds the basic assumptions about your organization, your industry, or the world at large. Put another way, we must critically examine what the real issues are, what box we actually live in, before we can begin to address those issues in a new, creative way. If our only goal is to think outside the box, we never allow ourselves the opportunity for this crucial self-reflection.\nLet\u2019s open this up for discussion. There are some great points in the article and even a few in the comments, so what is your take on this? Is creativity for creativity\u2019s sake a drag on business? Do you think there really is a time to stop being creative? Is \u201cthinking outside the box\u201d a misleading term? Comment below!\n\u2190 Creatives vs. Non-Creatives: The Mistake that Could Sink a Thousand Offices\tFletch Creative on Mobile App Development \u2192\n4 thoughts on \u201cWhen to Stop Being Creative\u201d\nRick Meekins says:\nYou are right \u2013 the title is misleading. I agree with your thinking \u2013 creating for the sake of creating, or thinking outside the box for the sake of thinking outside the box can be inefficient. At the same time, stumbling (i.e., failing to focus) across a new concept could be disruptive, which is what creates whole new industries.\nJim Davis \u2013 creator of the Garfield cartoon offers a quote that I\u2019d learned and lived by since I was a teenager, \u201cit\u2019s amazing what one can accomplish if one doesn\u2019t know what one can\u2019t do.\u201d The Wright Brothers didn\u2019t know that they couldn\u2019t fly. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs didn\u2019t know a computer couldn\u2019t fit on a desktop. Thomas Edison didn\u2019t know that sounds couldn\u2019t be recorded and played back\u2026these are all examples of disruptive thinking when one steps outside of the bounds. Are there certainly principles that could not be ignored? Certainly. But the Wright Brothers certainly \u2013 to an extent \u2013 defied the most basic law of gravity.\nI think that \u201cthinking outside the box\u201d and \u201cinnovation\u201d have to be qualified. The author discussed Microsoft\u2019s Zune, applying the terms \u201cinnovation\u201d and \u201cthinking outside the box.\u201d It is my opinion that it neither. This was a \u201cme-too\u201d strategy that had no advantage over the existing technology other than the operating system.\n\u201cThinking outside the box,\u201d to me means that we are thinking outside of the current beliefs about something. That said, it implies that we know what the box is in order to think outside of it. Innovation implies that we are doing something (as opposed to thinking about something) that is incrementally or completely different, creating new perceptions about something.\nWhat are your thoughts? Do you feel that the over-use of a term makes the term invalid? Do you think that there are different roles for creativity \u2013 perhaps bounded and unbounded?\nd.hitchcock says:\nTotally agree with you, Rick! To answer your question, I think the overuse of a term can blur the intention of its use. It ends up meaning different things to different people, which is fine, but requires, as you said, careful qualification of the term and, as mentioned in the post, introspection as to what it will mean to the individual or company utilizing the idea. I think the problem that people may run into is unfocused creativity. Like you say, Bill Gates didn\u2019t know a computer couldn\u2019t fit on a desktop, but he did know that he wanted to make a computer that the average person could use in his own home. That leaves a lot of room to create, but he didn\u2019t try to create a totally new and unprecedented piece of technology. So often now it seems that when people want to think outside the box, they assume that they have to reject everything that has come before and attempt to do something completely new, rather than making something new of existing perceptions. Working inside of certain parameters allow products and, in this case, marketing to remain relevant to an audience, regardless of how creative you choose to be. But, as you said, having a particular focus ought to be a given from the beginning.\nAs for whether there are different roles for creativity, my answer would be a resounding yes! Unfortunately, many companies do not have the time, manpower, or financial resources available to spend much energy on unbounded creative efforts. Google, for example, is able to allot their employees time to develop and resources to execute totally new ideas and side projects, but this is not the norm. For many, creativity must be firmly ensconced within known parameters to achieve a specific goal \u2014 whether marketing campaigns, product development, et cetera \u2014 which requires focus to be successful. Perhaps the more accurate thing to say, rather than \u201cthink outside the box\u201d, would be to advise that people make something new with what they already have: Tap into an existing expectation and then turn it around to say or do something totally new. The familiarity will connect and the newness will excite, allowing the end result to truly resonate with an audience.",

        "raw_content": "First-Time Collaboration of U.N. Agencies Produces New Global Hunger Report\nThe United Nations released a report in September saying global hunger increased from 2015 to 2016, with the number of chronically undernourished reaching 815 million people, or 11 percent of the global population. The report is the first for \u201cregular monitoring of progress towards achieving the food security and nutrition targets set by the 2030 Agenda [for Sustainable Development],\u201d which includes the goal to eradicate hunger and prevent other forms of malnutrition across the globe by 2030.\nTitled State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2017, the report is a collaboration between the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the United Nations Children\u2019s Fund (UNICEF), the World Food Programme (WFP), and the World Health Organization (WHO).\nThe authors recommend a conflict-sensitive approach to food insecurity\u2014one that includes immediate humanitarian aid as well as long-term development and policies for sustained peace. Coinciding conflict and climate shocks, the authors say, could also increase as climate change intensifies, suggesting that \u201cclimate change not only magnifies problems of food insecurity and nutrition, but can also contribute to a further downward spiral into conflict, protracted crisis, and continued fragility.\u201d\nThe leaders of the five U.N. agencies add that the world will require strengthening of common efforts to address underlying causes of food insecurity and malnutrition\u2014including humanitarian, peace, and development strategies from across sectors\u2014to achieve the second SDG of eliminating hunger by 2030. They emphasize that achieving the second SDG through building resilience for peace and food security with new methods and renewed effort is integral to the achievement of other SDGs, as well.\n\u201cFor the first time, our agencies have jointly produced a far-reaching assessment of global food security and nutrition,\u201d says WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, celebrating the report\u2019s publication. This 2017 report marks the first time that WHO and UNICEF have joined FAO, WFP, and IFAD in producing a comprehensive report on hunger, reflecting a shift to a broader view on global hunger, malnutrition, and health.\nTags 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development agriculture climate change commodity crops conflict FAO FIES Food Insecurity Experience Scale Food Security hunger IFAD iron-deficiency malnutrition micronutrients overweight PoU Prevalence of Undernourishment SDG 2 State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2017 stunting sustainable development goals Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus the International Fund for Agricultural Development the United Nations Children\u2019s Fund the World Food Programme the World Health Organization U.N.

        "raw_content": "Taiwan earthquake: crumbled high-rise building was reinforced with tin cans\nDiscussion in 'The War Room' started by Arkain2K, Feb 8, 2016.\nArkain2K Si vis pacem, para bellum\nOrange County, California.\nBlue tin cans sandwiched in between a layer of concrete at the Wei-Kuan complex which collapsed in the 6.4 magnitude earthquake, in the southern Taiwanese city of Tainan on February 8, 2016.\nTaiwan's Government has ordered an investigation into the collapse of a high-rise building in an earthquake after it emerged tin cans had been used in its construction.\nMore than 100 people are believed to still be buried underneath the high-rise building which claimed most of the victims in the city. Officials said the blue cans used in the construction of the collapsed building seemed to have been used as construction filler in beams.\nRescue workers found the cans as they searched for survivors two days after the 6.4-magnitude earthquake that has killed at least 37 people.\nThe government has promised to launch a probe into the construction method, and Tainan mayor Lai Ching-te also promised to investigate the disaster.\nHowever, an engineer speaking to Taiwanese TV news channel CNA explained how using cans in construction was not necessarily illegal: \u201cFor such purposes in construction, it was not illegal prior to September 1999, but since then styrofoam and formwork boards have been used instead.\u201d\nMore than 170 people had been rescued from the 17-story building, the government announced. Of the 37 dead, 35 were inside the high-rise. A 15-year-old survivor told EBC television how the collapsed building looked like an accordion.\n\"It was all topsy-turvy,\" he said. \"You couldn't even tell where the ceiling was.\"\nChen Fu-Yuan, the chaiman of a Tainan engineer\u2019s association, speaking to CNN, said he believed the building may have collapsed because its foundations were built on loose earth or the construction materials were not of sufficient quality to support 17 floors.\nThe investigation into the collapsed building will start once the rescue operation has concluded.\nhttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...aunched-into-collapsed-building-a6860396.html\nArkain2K, Feb 8, 2016\nPrinceOfPain Silver Belt\nDid it collapse at free-fall into its own footprint?\nPrinceOfPain, Feb 8, 2016\nMalvo likes this.\nVideer Brown Belt\nSauna Inferno\nAtleast they used tin cans instead of rubbish like Chinese did with a bridge (that collapsed)\nVideer, Feb 8, 2016\nKuggk Purple Belt\nThat's so fucked up\nKuggk, Feb 8, 2016\nHelloJapan likes this.\nThis is a big problem in most of Asia, excluding Japan and probably Korea. One would assume Taiwan would be similar to Japan and Korea so maybee this building was a one off?? , What say those familiar with Taiwan?\nIn most of Asia the buildings are of substandard work. Contractors not following specs . Owners not spending enough on adequate materials and not paying laborers enough , or at all. Lack of regulation and oversight.\nPeople think of Dubai as this rich glitzy place but a lot of those snazzy looking buildings are crap, made with substandard materials or the cheapest. Inexpereinced or exploited labor force leads to sketchy build quality. Lack of firebreaks when utilizing Aluminium-panels, leading to quite a few highrise fires.\nThis is why government regulations and oversight is a good thing.\nMicroBrew, Feb 9, 2016\nThis is a problem found throughout the non Western world. Especially outside UK, Australia, NZ, Canada and the USA. Western Europe is generally better, but its crazy how much of the world is blatantly corrupt. I am always nervous in Earthquake zones due to the poor adherence to the construction laws. On paper I am sure this building was bulletproof before this happened.\nVideer said: \u2191\nA couple years ago a bridge in Vietnam collapsed and revealed the reinforcing beams inside the concrete to be bamboo instead of steel.\nIn corrupted Asia, \"governmental oversight\" often means only half of the budget goes to procure construction supplies and the other half put in blank envelopes for for juice money.\nGetting the government involved is never the solution. Let people be free and the free market will take care of this\nGervinho, Feb 9, 2016\nMicroBrew and M3t4tr0n like this.\nLmao, just so you know I'm gonna use this down the road some time in the warroom\nTaiwan issue arrest warrant for currently-missing developer of collapsed building\nOn Tuesday, Taiwan issued an arrest warrant for the building\u2019s developer, Lin Ming-hui, along with two others, Reuters reported.\nThe previous day, Tainan Mayor William Lai said that survivors have reported \u201clegal violations\u201d in the building, according to theBBC. Tainan\u2019s government said the building wasn\u2019t listed as dangerous before the quake, though prosecutors are now investigating the complex\u2019s construction to see if the builder cut corners.\nBut plenty of people in Tainan say they had misgivings about the Weiguan Jinlong long before it fell. A man whose grandchildren were still buried inside the complex on Sunday told the Associated Press that he had warned his son not to purchase an apartment there.\n\u201cIt was suspiciously cheap,\u201d said the man, identified only by his surname, Huang. A man standing next to him nodded his head in agreement. He, too, was waiting on news of relatives trapped inside.\nHuang\u2019s son escaped the collapse, but his daughter-in-law was in the hospital in serious condition, according to the AP. His 11- and 12-year-old grandsons, who had been sleeping on the ninth floor, have yet to be found.\nYueh Chin-sen, whose mother-in-law\u2019s family of eight was trapped inside the building Monday, said that he knew residents had complained in the past about problems with their home.\n\u201cThere were cracks in the walls and tiles fell off after several quakes in recent years,\u201d he told Agence France-Presse.\nOthers brought up how the basements always seemed to leak when it rained, or how the elevators were rarely working, or how the pipes were often blocked.\n\u201cWe always wanted to move, but we couldn\u2019t afford it,\u201d Chun-jung told Reuters.\nOn Sunday, Taiwan\u2019s state-run news agency, CNA, reported that several cooking oil cans were found in pillars of the destroyed building. Tai Yun-fa, a structural engineer, told CNA that in the 1990s it was legal to use oil cans as \u201cfiller\u201d in pillars that served aesthetic rather than weight-bearing purposes. In some cases, this may actually be safer than filling the pillars with concrete: It prevents the building from being too heavy. But the practice was banned after cans were found in the walls of buildings that collapsed during a 1999 earthquake that killed more than 2,300 people.\nStill, though no longer legal \u2014 foam is now used instead \u2014 the cans wouldn\u2019t have been what made the building hazardous, Tai said.\nBut the cans may not have been the building\u2019s only problem. Taiwanese media has reported that polystyrene \u2014 the plastic used for \u201cpacking peanuts\u201d \u2014 has been found mixed in with the concrete of supporting beams, Reuters reported.\nAnd Lee Kunhuan, an architect and a former mayor of the area, told the New York Times that although the Weiguan Jinlong complex complied with building codes during construction in the early 1990s, that was only because developers exploited loopholes that have since been closed \u2014 much like the tin can law.\nToday, he said, the building would not have been allowed to reach higher than four stories, and it would have been better designed to accommodate the stress of an earthquake.\nTaiwan, located in the Pacific\u2019s \u201cRing of Fire,\u201d is used to seismic activity, though temblors aren\u2019t often as destructive as this most recent one.\nNeighbors who watched the building go up \u2014 in fits and starts over the course of three years as the construction companies involved ran out of money \u2014 said they doubted the workmanship.\n\u201cWhen it was being built, I looked at it and thought, only people from out of town would buy it. We local people would never dare to,\u201d Yang Shu-mei, who lived next to the building, told Reuters.\nAnd once the condos went on the market, Reuters reported, a local bank would not issue mortgages to those who bought them. Tainan resident Kuo Yi-chien told the news service the bank did not want to grant loans to people living in what they felt was a shoddily made building.\nKuo\u2019s daughter, who bought an apartment in the complex after securing a loan from a different bank, is now in an intensive care unit with a cracked skull. Her husband is at another hospital ICU with damaged lungs.\nTheir seven-year-old daughter died in the collapse.\n\u201cPeople from outside of the town, people like them, had no idea what was going on before they moved in,\u201d Kuo explained to Reuters as she waited outside her daughter\u2019s hospital room. Kuo said she hadn\u2019t heard about the problems with the building, or the bank\u2019s qualms with it, until after her family moved in.\n\u201cThey did not know the building was completed by the second developer after the first one went bust. They only found out after they signed the contract,\u201d she said.\nFour days after the quake, the developer, Lin Ming-hui, was nowhere to be found.\nhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news...for-developer-of-building-that-fell-in-quake/\nKOQ24 Gold Belt\nGrimmen, Germany\nThis is a widespread Problem.Buildings on the cheap with inexperienced labor is normal throughout most of the world.\nKOQ24, Feb 9, 2016\npinger Brown Belt Platinum Member\npinger, Feb 9, 2016\nShinkanPo Wild Imam\nStrange Realm\nShinkanPo, Feb 9, 2016\nCan never have enough free-market zombies\nSohei, Feb 9, 2016\nHow does a free market prevent something like this?\nHigus said: \u2191\npretty sure thats sarcasm\nKOQ24 said: \u2191\nWith this crowd, you can never be sure\n\"Pull it\".\nNow we know the company uses cheap material and not good in quality.

        "raw_content": "Real Estate Tips For Buying And Selling Property\nPosted 12:44 PM, July 12, 2013, by jesmoore, Updated at 01:16PM, July 12, 2013\nBeing a move-up buyer can be tough in the current market. Although deals are closing rapidly, there is no guarantee that your new dream home will close at the same time as your old dream home. Sulman Quraishi, owner of Engel and Volkers in West Hartford, joins the show to share tips on how to buy and sell properties at the same time.\nTips for buying and selling real estate:\n1. Sell first, then buy.\nThis is perhaps the safest plan, but it calls for multiple moves. In this scenario, you list your home and complete the transaction before purchasing another home.\nWhen you sell your home, you put the bulk of your belongings in storage and live in a temporary rental or, if possible, enter into a rent-back deal with your home\u2019s new owner.\nThe advantage of this method is that you know exactly how much you can spend on a new home, and you don\u2019t have to worry about temporary financing. Also, without another home waiting in the wings, you\u2019ll be less tempted to drop the price or to take the first offer that is below the asking price.\nThe disadvantage is that it is a disruptive experience, and you could be displaced for a while if you are home-shopping for a long time.\n2. Buy first, then sell.\nThis strategy minimizes disruption.\nYou can move into your new place at your leisure and then take time to prepare your home for sale.\nThe major disadvantage is that, depending on how fast your old home sells, you could be shouldering the burden of two mortgages for some time.\nYou are also responsible for maintenance and security on the vacant home. This scenario works best if your first home is already paid off.\n3. Buy and sell simultaneously.\nTo execute this plan, you need to prepare for all contingencies and to know that if your timing is off, you will face one of the two scenarios listed above.\nThe trickiest bit can be timing the financial burden.\nAn option is bridge financing To do this, you need to either borrow money from family or obtain a short-term loan from a bank or other lending institution to span the time period between when you close on your new home and sell your old one.\nIn essence, you are getting a short-term home-equity loan, also known as a HELOC, a Home Equity Line of Credit, on your present house and using it as a down payment on your new house.\nYou can then repay the loan after you sell your first home. It is not easy to qualify for a conventional bridge loan, since you have to demonstrate that you have enough money to pay for both mortgages for an indefinite period of time.\nExperts advise applying for the HELOC well before you buy a new house. That way most of the credit on the line is unused until you actually need it. Lenders don\u2019t like a HELOC that works only for a very short time, and it\u2019s a challenge to get a HELOC if your present home is on the market.\nTry to schedule the closing date on the sale of your old home after the closing date on the home you buy. In this way, you can stay in your present home until you move into your new home. Otherwise, you can attempt to negotiate a rent-back arrangement.\nEngel & V\u00f6lkers began in 1977 as a specialty boutique real estate agency providing high-end services to an exclusive clientele. Today, the company is a global leader in the sale and lease of premium residential and commercial property and yachts.\nTo find out more about Engel and Volkers, go to: westhartford.evusa.com.\nchrismarwon\nAccording to me, buying or selling property not an easy task. So, people should do this world through a good and knowledgeable broker because there are many important things you should keep in mind whenever you go to buy or sell property yourself.\nrosevillenotarynow.com\nIt\u2019s remarkable to visit this web page and reading the views of\nall friends concerning this article, while I am also zealous of getting experience.\nBuying or selling property is one of the biggest financial decisions of your life so take the time to interview at least three agents before deciding whom to hire. You want to find someone who demonstrates knowledge of your area and expertise in the buying/selling process, make sure you'll feel comfortable having this person guide you through an overwhelming and stressful process.\nhttp://www.brianlinnekens.net/",

        "raw_content": "\u201cPreach the Word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and Doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound Doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the Truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an Evangelist, make full proof of your Ministry\u201d (II Tim. 4:2-5).\nTHE OLD GOSPEL TRUTHS!\nOur modern culture is replete with the notion, \u201cout with the old, in with the new!\u201d We are obsessed with the latest fad, gossip, idea, or creature comfort. We are quickly bored, aggravated, and unsatisfied with anything last season, much less anything from centuries past. We are overly entertained and disastrously unfocused as a society. And, unfortunately, we have developed a \u201cspiritual ADHD\u201d (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) as well! Because we have listened to the siren call of changing tides and because false teachers/preachers have promised us better lands and shores, we have allowed a shift in the spirituality of our churches. Many among us have been pulled out to sea, away from the old Gospel Truths, just as the Word of God predicted!\nThe Bible says that \u201c. . . the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field . . .\u201d (Gen 3:1). Satan used the creature with the most intelligence to deceive Eve in the Garden, and he is using highly intelligent social-engineering to deceive men now! Practically no one backslides overnight, neither in his doctrinal belief nor his morality. The Evil One knows this, and he also knows that neither will the Church Body as a whole become apostate in an instant. So, he has crafted a slowly progressing deception that has actually been fermenting for many centuries. None of it has seemed frightening or abrupt, and every slight veer from the Truth always sounded perfectly acceptable to the undiscerning ear. Yes indeed, this plan has the marks of Satan; remember, he does not come bearing horns and a pitchfork! As you read the chart found later in this article, you will be able to more clearly see how his deception has unfolded.\nTHE WRONG SPIRITUAL RECIPE\nIt has been like gradually, over time, changing a recipe. The change in taste is hardly recognizable at each small alteration, but after many such adjustments, the new no longer tastes anything like the original. And, unless you\u2019ve tasted the original, you cannot know the new one is different. The same is true Spiritually. Unless you\u2019ve known the True, original Gospel, you will unwittingly eat of the wrong spiritual \u201crecipe\u201d because, sadly, most Christians do not read the original recipe \u2013 the Word of God \u2013 for themselves. They leave that work to church leaders whom they assume to be trustworthy when, in fact, they often are not! We at this Ministry constantly encourage listeners not to simply take our word for anything, but rather to study the Bible for yourselves. You will notice that proponents of the new false teachings tend to steer people toward practically every book other than the Bible including perverted translations of it, such as The Message. Oh, how much we need more preachers of the original/the Cross, so that the people may, once again, \u201c. . . taste and see that the LORD is Good . . .\u201d (Ps. 34:8), and that His timeless Truth is the sweetest thing any of us can ever know!\nThis chart was taken from an excellent article by Berit Kjos entitled \u201cFrom Truth to a New Spirituality.\u201d Tamara Hartzell compiled this excellent chart that is used in the article.

These revealing messages were compiled by our friend and fellow-researcher Tamara Hartzell and explained in her insightful report: \u201cAre you \u2018Being led away with Error of the Wicked\u2019 to the New Age Ark of Oneness?\u201d The endnotes are numbered as they appear in her report.\nThe great preacher, C.H. Spurgeon, once wrote, \u201cIf God does not save men by Truth, he certainly will not save them by lies. And if the old Gospel is not competent to work a revival, then we will do without the revival.\u201d Any revival without Truth is really no revival at all, and it has no power to save! Likewise, this new spirituality, this new gospel, is really no Gospel at all (Gal 1:7), and it has no power to save! All who believe and trust in it will eventually perish in their deception. Church, you must \u201c. . . ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and you shall find rest for your souls . . .\u201d (Jer. 6:16).",

        "raw_content": "Part II: The Partnership\nThe institution of marriage is under attack as never before. Statistics tell us that in 1960, more than 70 percent of adults in America were married. By 2011, that figure dropped to 51 percent and it\u2019s still falling. It used to be that young people married in their 20s and 30s to start families of their own, but today, we\u2019re seeing an increasing number of people in that age bracket still living at home with their parents. In essence, more than half of this present generation is refusing marriage\u2014the foundation of God\u2019s most important institution.\nIn this second installment of my husband\u2019s article series, \u201cThe Successful Home and Marriage,\u201d he addresses the biblical reasons for men and women to marry, and the power of their partnership.\nUNBOUND TO MARRIAGE\nThough Adam and Eve were created perfect, God intended them to be married. God said, \u201cIt is not good that man should be alone.\u201d So, even perfect, sinless people (and none of those exist today) were brought together in marriage.\nIn the beginning, Adam and Eve were holy and virtuous. God Himself came down from heaven to walk with Adam in the cool of the evening. He spoke with him in the garden of Eden. His presence and His blessings were upon their relationship. The closer God\u2019s presence is sought (and realized) in a marriage and a home, the greater will be the blessing. God established the home and wants to bless it.\nThose who make slurring remarks about marriage and the relationship of a husband and wife are depraved, slanderous, and engaging in abominations before the Lord. God told us (in the book of Hebrews, through the apostle Paul) that marriage is honorable in all, and the marriage bed is undefiled by whoremongers.\nGod will judge adulterers. Some do not want to be bound by the bonds of marriage. Today we hear much of trial marriages. In all honesty, these are not marriages in any sense of the word. They are situations where a man and woman live together while they decide if they like each other. If they do, they might go ahead and get married someday. Does this make for a better relationship? Every survey\u2014including those taken by ungodly people indicates that the same problems people have in marriage come to the surface when they live together without the benefit of marriage. These unwed couples demonstrate the same reactions as married people when confronted with the normal problems present in any marriage.\nBecause some people feel they know more than God and refuse to be guided by divine laws and commandments, they advocate living together\u2014or painless and easy divorce. This is one of the major problems in America today\u2014and divorces are becoming easier and easier to obtain. It should not be this way.\nMarriage has always constituted the bedrock of any society whether a tribe, village, city, or a nation. It is holy in the eyes of the Almighty, and that should never be forgotten. Perversions of God\u2019s instructions for marriage and perverting the laws of God, have always resulted in disaster. Marriage was made for mankind\u2014and it is the plan of an infinitely loving and wise God.\nThere are many sensible reasons why people should get married. First of all, every person needs fellowship. People basically require fellowship with others, and marriage was intended by God to ease our loneliness. God meant marriage for the lonely heart, and to supply fellowship, comfort, and joy.\nThis is the reason God said, \u201cIt is not good that man should be alone.\u201d\nA man may have good things to eat, and all other needs met, but he still feels incomplete unless he has a good wife. Though the needs of his physical condition may be met, no abiding satisfaction will exist unless he has a good wife at his side.\nConversely\u2014a woman can be an excellent cook and an expert in household affairs, but she finds no joy in her domestic expertise if there is no husband to enjoy and to share what she has prepared. This kind of \u201cfellowship relationship\u201d is extremely important.\nMen and women are basically different in many ways and have different needs. In their partnership (or relationship), each fulfills the needs of the other. It has been stated many times and in various ways that it doesn\u2019t matter how talented a man may be, how much ability a man has, nor how much education he may have attained\u2014he will not succeed as he should unless he has a good woman at his side.\nFew attain great success despite a wife. Most who attain great success do so because of a good and supportive wife. At times a man can be a bit lazy. A wife can be a great help in prodding him on. Certainly this is not true in every case, but there are many cases where this can be a significant factor. It is true with reference to this ministry.\nAt this moment, we have one of the largest television audiences in the world, numbering into millions, and we have over 10 million records sold. Not for even a moment ignoring God\u2019s hand in all this, I must say that great credit for these accomplishments must go to Frances, my wife. None of this would have been accomplished without her help and encouragement. This type of marriage partnership is imperative for the type of success we have experienced. To say that she has been an encouragement and a help is an understatement. There have been many times when projects have been undertaken only because my wife kept telling me how much it would bless people and produce great results for the kingdom of God.\nBecause of Frances\u2019 support, encouragement, and vision, we have consistently pressed on\u2014into one area of expansion and development after another.\nDYNAMIC ACHIEVEMENTS\nWhen two are committed to the same thing, a dynamic power is produced. Scripture tells us that if two can agree concerning anything, mighty deeds become possible. When husband and wife, as a team, agree together, they can experience the fullest possible demonstration of that promise. Countless times there has been discouragement, and it seemed as though quitting might be best, but Frances has always encouraged, inspired, and helped me. I know this is what God intended. Man needs a helpmeet, and Frances has consistently filled that role. I wish I could tell you of the hardships and sacrifices she has endured that we might together proclaim the gospel.\nGoing into evangelistic work was difficult. Traveling with a child and trying to train and teach him while on the road was difficult. Many times the church basements or church apartments in which we stayed were far from clean. Conditions were often discouraging. Yet Frances never once entertained the thought of stopping or turning back.\nNight after night, she and Donnie were unfailingly in attendance at the service. She went because she knew I needed her. This helped me so much more than anyone could ever know. The marriage partnership is so necessary. This particular one has resulted in millions of souls being touched and stirred. The dedication and help of my wife has been, to a very large degree, responsible for this. This is what God has ordained. Marriage is so honorable. There is a fellowship; there is a partnership.\nThere are great achievements in united efforts for God as two labor and think and plan together, each helping the other. Everything we do is talked over and planned together. My wife\u2019s judgement, wisdom, and advice is valued more than that of anyone else in the world. We feel that this is the way marriage should be, and that the institution of marriage is a God-ordained ideal.\nA proper relationship can result in a wonderfully happy home, which is a bit like heaven on earth. It gives a testimony to light a world that needs God\u2019s design and plan for the institution of marriage.\nMarriage is also necessary because of our basic biological needs. This has been called the \u201csex age.\u201d When we discuss sex, though, we should keep in mind that God created sex. It was not dirty, perverted, or obscene in the beginning. Man has caused it to become all of these things. God intended sex to be beautiful, and it is when it involved a husband and wife.\nThe perversions we see all about us today are not of God\u2019s doing. Unfortunately, they cause many people to look at sex generally as being wrong. Sex in itself is not wrong, nor is it dirty or evil. God Himself placed in humans the sex drive that is an inescapable part of marriage, love, mating, and fulfillment in the context of a home.\nThe drive that presses men and women toward marriage is placed there by God. So the sex drive is not wrong; it\u2019s really holy in the sight of God. Some may never have heard it referred to in this way, and some might be unable to think of sex as being holy. It is though. It was made by God. It is normal in God\u2019s sight and it is right and proper within the framework of marriage.\nA young Christian was heard to say that he was going to stay in his room and pray until God took the sex urge away from him. I expect he stayed in his room a long time. In all probability, his prayer proved futile. The normal sex drive is given by God, and it is good. There is nothing whatsoever wrong with it. Man has perverted it as Satan has influenced man.\nUnfortunately, some Christians speak of the sex drive as if it were evil and wicked. Some even label it \u201coriginal sin.\u201d There are those who call the normal biological urge \u201clust.\u201d Of course, there is such a thing as lust, and lust is common today.\nBut the normal sex drive and desire placed in the normal human being by God is not lust. While it can be (and is) perverted, it is basically and essentially something God created holy and beautiful. God intended, however, that the normal sex drive be satisfied within the holy communion of wedlock.\nGOD\u2019S DOING\nGod makes beautiful and wonderful things. He has ordained marriage and the home. It is the oldest institution and the most basic and important in society. It has the potential to be a most glorious experience for the people involved. Since it is a God-ordained institution, it must be established on divine principles if it is to prove to be that desired bit of heaven on earth.\nSource: Pew Research: http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2013/08/01/a-rising-share-of-young-adults-live-in-their-parents-home/",

It doesn\u2019t get more after school special than that.\nOf course, behind the scenes, it was a different and less squeaky clean story.\nIn 2013, Cory Monteith, one of the show\u2019s leads, died from a lethal overdose of heroin and alcohol, earlier this year Mark Salling, another lead, was indicted on child pornography charges, and back in 2010, Naya Rivera spent one of her days off from the show getting an abortion.\nNot that getting an abortion is the same as being caught with child porn on your laptop or overdosing, but they\u2019re all subjects that would inspire a different kind of after school special.\nNaya Rivera, who\u2019s about to publish her first memoir at the ripe old age of 29, Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes and Growing Up, revealed to People that a few weeks after she split from her now-husband Ryan Dorsey, she learned she was pregnant.\nAt the time, having the child just wasn\u2019t an option and Rivera decided not to tell him and to use one of her days off to terminate her pregnancy.\n\u201cIt was very scary to open up about everything,\u201d Naya told People. \u201cIt\u2019s not something a lot of people talk about, but I think they should. I know some people might read it and say, \u2018What the Hell?\u2019 But I hope someone out there gets something out of it.\u201d\nWho knew the \u201cGlee\u201d stars would still be teaching us such valuable lessons even after the show went off the air?\n[H/T People]",

Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) said, adding that $150 million has already been distributed.\nState election commissions were initially skeptical of DHS stepping in to help them secure their voting systems. Since then, DHS has built up cyber assessment and evaluation services for states, established an Election Infrastructure Coordinating Council and helped set up an Election Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center to share threat information.\nState officials testifying at the senate hearing, for the most part, agreed those organizations and resources are working well.\n\"Minnesota and other states are in a far better position going into this election than that last one\" in understanding the cyber threat, said Steve Simon, Minnesota Secretary of State. \"We've benefitted from the critical infrastructure designation from DHS in terms of expertise, value-added. It's a good partnership after a rocky start,\" he said.\nDHS Senior Cybersecurity Advisor, Matt Masterson, said he had heard that too. \"We're trying to find a balance of how much information\" to provide and in what forms it should be available, he said.\nState IT managers, he said, should have more technical detail than other election officials. The process of honing data has been a part of establishing data sharing programs for the other critical infrastructure sectors, he said.\nDespite the praise, state officials told the panel that a steady stream of funding, not only a one-time appropriation, would be needed to most effectively protect state and local election infrastructure.\n\"This is expensive,\" said Simon said of protecting systems.",

Unable to adapt to new realities, this world order began to break up in 2001. However, in the last two years, the national units that make up this international system have made a decided exit from such constraining and obsolete structures. Obviously, Brexit is emblematic of this process. However, the phenomenon has accelerated a lot since that decision was made, as we shall see. Clearly, we are approaching a day of reckoning: Freed from their constraints, the nations are now floundering, with no fixed point in sight to cling to. We have already mentioned the risks of shakiness and panic reactions, potentially leading decision-makers to make bad decisions that are likely to produce dramatic chain reactions. We believe that this summer could see this kind of \u201caccident\u201d. Everything seems to be gathering together for a perfect storm.\nIn this \u2018obituary of the old-world order\u2019, let\u2019s start with the G7 which Donald Trump has just shot down in flames, despite the laudable efforts that had been made by everyone.[1]\nOur faithful readers know that we have been saying for a long time that the G7-8-7-6 does not make much sense and we won\u2019t be shedding any tears over its death. In terms of their GDP, the top seven global powers are now China, the USA, India, Japan, Germany, Russia and Indonesia.[2] So that France, the UK and Canada did not slip out of the annals of global governance, among other reasons, the G20 was formed in 2008 from Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, UK, USA and the European Union[3]. However, this is an artificial exercise because, if we stick to the ranking of world powers according to their GDP, we should add Spain and the Netherlands to the list and exclude Argentina and South Africa.\nNelson Mandela\u2019s country, particularly, is far behind the others, ranked 34th. Nevertheless, it seems appropriate to include an African country in the list and hence avoid overrepresentation of certain continents, such as Europe. One of the innovations was to have as a full member the EU, a non-national entity, making the G20 something new and different to the usual \u2018international\u2019 organisations. Given this logic, it is the African Union (with a 2,849 billion-dollar GDP), rather than South Africa (294 billion-dollar GDP), which should represent Africa. But, in 2008, the African Union wasn\u2019t a very convincing regional entity \u2013 something which, as we have already seen, is now changing. ASEAN (with a $2.4 trillion GDP) would obviously have its place in this grouping, since the EU is entitled to be part of it\u2026\nTo cut a long story short, what is important to understand is that, in a constantly changing world, it is difficult to create fixed multilateral fora which remain relevant and useful for a long time. Future models of global governance urgently need to incorporate \u2018Agile\u2019 principles,[4] just as everyone else already does.\nOnce the G7 was no longer a club of the great powers, it became a kind of \u2018Western club\u2019 \u2013 where the word \u2018Western\u2019 actually meant \u2018allies of the United States\u2019 in the mentality of a Cold War which itself was melting away. Adding Russia to this club in 1997 was, therefore, a beautiful symbol of the end of the Cold War. On the other hand, its exclusion in 2014, regenerated this mindset of confrontation among the allied powers (allied against whom, by the way?) \u2013 a bad omen.\nDonald Trump is now challenging this mentality, hopefully as a long-term move. We must hope our leaders have something better to do than gather together in pointless summits that nurture tensions within the world. Considering the armadas of civil servants and diplomats that are mobilised in the preparation of these summits, the enormous organisational costs (605 million dollars, of which nearly 400 million alone was devoted to security, for hosting-Canada only[5]) and the precious time lost for Heads of State at a moment when they are dealing with particularly troubled times, Trump\u2019s resounding outburst is not to be regretted. Neither are his just remarks about Russia\u2019s absence,[6] followed by the cynical comments of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on the fact that he did not intend to return to the G7 and preferred to continue working through the much more appropriate format of the G20.[7]\nIf we are to hear about it again, let\u2019s hope it\u2019s in the context of a real reinvention! A transatlantic forum; a sub-group of the EU\u2019s representative countries at the global level; what do we know\u2026?\nThe only disturbing aspect of Trump\u2019s challenge is the violence of the signal he is sending in the accelerated disintegration of past alliances, which, seemingly, are not being replaced.\nA floundering European Union\nThe EU as we knew it, continues to disintegrate, though other patterns of cooperation are emerging \u2013 something we will talk about again further on. The difficulties the United Kingdom is meeting in concluding its exit don\u2019t represent a victory for the EU.[8] As mentioned before, if the British cannot proceed with their democratic choice because it is made impossible, it is not the EU that will have won. Rather, it is democracy that will have lost, paving the way for political radicalisation \u2013 and not just across the Channel. The message will have been made clear: In a globalised world, the choices of (national) peoples are unachievable.\nA moribund NATO\nAs we have explained on other occasions, NATO is still there, of course, but only because there are no better options at hand. Everyone wants to be rid of it \u2013 the Europeans who want a common European defence[9] and Donald Trump who wants Europeans to participate more in their own defence. They are all contributing to a slow process in which NATO continues to get in the way whilst Europeans dither between several strategies:\nTo increase their share[10] and thus acquire an equal say with that of the US within NATO (with the long-term aim of separating off to form a European NATO[11]). Problem: For this strategy to have a chance of success, much greater cohesion is needed in the European camp \u2013 something that is still a long way off at the moment.\nTo advance a European defence project beside NATO with the support of a few member countries and plan a gradual cessation of contributions to the Alliance prior to an organised exit. This strategy is currently more realistic, but likely to create greater tensions among Europeans on one hand, and between European and Americans on the other.[12]\nTo Europeanise national armies, as some think Germany has been tempted to do.[13]\nTo opt for the Russians, rather than the United States, as protectors! Whilst this option is provocative, we believe that including such a perspective may help towards a better understanding of the US-Russian confrontation in Europe. Russia has little interest in a Europe at war. In fact, even less than the distant United States. As with China in the South China Sea, they amass troops and armies on the border with Europe, probably not so much to attack as to defend themselves and to maintain peace within their vicinity. In the multipolar world of the twenty-first century, the United States will no longer be the only \u2018cop\u2019 in the world. And we believe that, even if they are in the minority, some Eastern European countries are beginning to think that, since a European defence still seems far away and since a US defence imposes a harmful confrontation with Russia, why not change umbrella after all? We are thinking of Hungary, of course, but also Greece, Italy and Austria. Clearly, we will not see any clear statement on this topic for a long time \u2013 and, hopefully, Europe will find more adult ways to protect itself before then. But with this idea in mind, we can better understand certain events, such as the meeting between Putin and Van der Bellen in Vienna on 6th June,[14] or that between Putin and the Bulgarian president,[15] both referring to \u2018strategic\u2019 links \u2026 in the energy sector, at the very least. After all, changing umbrella is exactly what Turkey did![16]\nWhilst waiting for the EU to find a way to decide, the moribund NATO is brooding one last ember\u2026\nFrom the Gulf Cooperation Council to the Saudi-Emirati Coordination Council\n2020-2040: Exponential global development\n#Cryptocurrencies #dollar #energy #europe #geopolitics #oil #world\nThe world is on the brink of a wave of unprecedented development which is poised to sweep over the Middle East, Africa, India, Southeast Asia, the United States and the [...]\nEurope 2019-2024: From an agricultural crisis to a food crisis?\n#crisis #energy #europe #geopolitics\nThe Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), which is supposed to guarantee food independence and food quality for all Europeans, has been in crisis for many years without the citizens seeing any [...]\nInvestments, trends and recommendations (Jun 2018)\n#energy #investments #recommendations\n- Chinese market - New banks - Real estate: Owning your home, it's over! - Your information system: diversify by sectors Chinese market China has an instrumental role in the [...]",

        "raw_content": "Caldera Magazine wants to be a local antidote to \u2018white-washed\u2019 art spaces\nCurator and editor Zoe Rayn \"founded Caldera out of frustration\" with limited visibility for people of color and LGBTQ folks in the arts industry.\nBy Zoe Rayn / guest\narts and culture, guest post, Leaders of Color, LGBTQ, LGBTQ Month 2018, weekly, women in leadership\nOx Coffee, 616 South 3rd Street, Philadelphia\nCaldera founder Zoe Rayn.\nThis is a guest post by Caldera Magazine founder Zoe Rayn.\nThe arts industry is a pocket of people who so dearly value the concept of openness, self-expression and a host of conceptual ideologies that, from the outside, it appears to be a haven for creativity and the acceptance of all types of people and their individual ideas.\nWhile this is true for some, it is far from the truth for others.\nThe lack of representation is an issue across industries, but an issue that seems to, curiously so, silo communities within the arts. It is important to have adequate visibility of groups that are too often overlooked or tokenized.\nCaldera Magazine is a new, quarterly publication trying to provide a genuine solution by focusing solely on people of color and the LGBTQIA communities within the arts. I founded Caldera out of frustration as I realized I was consistently one of the few brown people in the room, and seeing first-hand how intimidating the arts can be, simply because they are (to be frank) not always welcoming to all.\nUsing a print and online publication to be the catalyst for this change came about for two reasons: my love of print media, and recognizing the need for a platform that grants full access to creative expression and ideas. Each issue invites artists and creatives to explore various social issues and conversations through their respective mediums.\nWe hope that our work at Caldera will impact larger change within the Philadelphia arts community by way of example.\nIn our first issue, titled \u201cForty-Five,\u201d contributors focused on life post-Trump, and the effects the election had (or didn\u2019t have) on their lives. Our second issue comes out this July and is centered around gender and sexuality. The hope in having each issue highlight a different social narrative is to take otherwise \u201cdifficult\u201d conversations and present them in a point of view that isn\u2019t seen or heard completely void of heavy curation or outside input.\nI encourage all of the artists, creatives, writers and poets to create the work they want to make \u2014 not what they think will be popular, or will sell more copies of the magazine, because I believe wholeheartedly that their unadulterated voice and work is an important factor in truly diversifying the arts.\nOutside of the magazine, we have started hosting various events and workshops that are open and free to all. This summer for example, we are holding a residency of sorts at Ox Coffee in Queen Village. The first Sunday of every month is a hands-on art-making workshop and the fourth Friday of each month is an engaging event, such as our May \u201cCoffee Talk\u201d or our movie night on June 22.\nHolding these workshops and events is our way of not only introducing ourselves to the Philadelphia community, but also a way to try and present the arts in all its various media in a non-intimidating environment.\nAre we the end-all cure to centuries of white-washed museum spaces, art galleries, performance halls and art schools? No. We didn\u2019t set out to be, either. What we want is to put our nose to the ground and do the work that needs to be done on the grassroots level, with the hope that our work at Caldera will impact larger change within the Philadelphia arts community by way of example rather than another \u201ccultural competency\u201d workshop.\nInterested in learning more about the Caldera mission?

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home Page > Arts & Humanities > Classical Studies > Classical History > Classical Traditions in Science Fiction\nEdited by Brett M. Rogers and Edited by Benjamin Eldon Stevens\nThe first comprehensive, book-length treatment of the classical tradition in science fiction.\nWill appeal equally strongly to students and scholars of classics and to those of science fiction.\nFor all its concern with change in the present and future, science fiction is deeply rooted in the past and, surprisingly, engages especially deeply with the ancient world. Indeed, both as an area in which the meaning of \"classics\" is actively transformed and as an open-ended set of texts whose own 'classic' status is a matter of ongoing debate, science fiction reveals much about the roles played by ancient classics in modern times. Classical Traditions in Science Fiction is the first collection dedicated to the rich study of science fiction's classical heritage, offering a much-needed mapping of its cultural and intellectual terrain.\nThis volume discusses a wide variety of representative examples from both classical antiquity and the past four hundred years of science fiction, beginning with science fiction's \"rosy-fingered dawn\" and moving toward the other-worldly literature of the present day. As it makes its way through the eras of science fiction, Classical Traditions in Science Fiction exposes the many levels on which science fiction engages the ideas of the ancient world, from minute matters of language and structure to the larger thematic and philosophical concerns.\nIntroduction: The True History of The Future (and Its Future)\nPart I: SF's Rosy-Fingered Dawn\n1.

        "title": "The Writings of M D Nalapat: This is no time for silence, Mr Modi (Sunday Guardian)",
        "raw_content": "This is no time for silence, Mr Modi (Sunday Guardian)\nMD Nalapat, 23 February 2014.\nhere are those politicians who dislike any individual who tells them unpleasant truths to their face. Used as they are to courtiers spewing praise with the frequency of spit around a \"paan\" shop, our politicians early in their stint in powerful positions believe in their own excellence and infallibility, until brought to earth by electoral disaster. Let it be admitted that this columnist is not in the \"friends\" list of Narendra Modi, unlike others who know the man closely. However, during the few occasions when he has met first the BJP party functionary and later the Chief Minister of Gujarat, the BJP's Prime Ministerial nominee has ever been friendly and receptive, even when views have been presented to him with which he clearly disagreed. Contrary to the widely-spread view of Modi as imperious and more than a trifle arrogant, he has always seemed relaxed and marked by sudden flashes, not of anger, but of humour, which is why a meeting with Modi has always been an experience to remember.\nIn particular, Narendra Modi has never hesitated to speak out his mind on issues, even when such views have been controversial. Most politicians say things that are entirely different from their actual views, in the belief that such dissimulation will help them garner votes. Take the way in which several have rushed to comment on the Godhra train burning of 2002, when a frenzy seemed to settle on Gujarat, resulting in the deaths of several dozen Hindus and many more that number of Muslims. Whole families joined in the mayhem, whether they were Congress or BJP or neither, but this has been ignored in a narrative that places the entire blame on a single individual.\nNarendra Modi has thus far refused to accept the advice of several detractors and more than a handful of friends that he \"apologise\" for the post-Godhra riots. For to do so would be to accept culpability in the killings that took place, and it has been Modi's view that no Chief Minister could have prevented the violence that followed television images of the victims of the train burning being taken to their cremation. This columnist has covered riots before, getting stabbed in one and escaping an attack in a second, and can testify to the fact that when a mob goes crazy, it becomes a malign force of nature impervious to sanity and often to the police. So it was with the 2002 riots, and which is why there has been no apology from Narendra Modi, nor is there likely to be, despite the pointing out of the \"alliance advantage\" of such a Mea Culpa. Narendra Modi is what he is, and as this columnist has said before, is packaged in cellophane rather than in an opaque material. Like him or loathe him, you know what to expect from the man.\nWhich is why it is a surprise that thus far, Narendra Modi has been silent on the action of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa in seeking to free Santhan, Murugan and Perarivalan, three of those who succeeded in killing Rajiv Gandhi at Sriperumbudur in 1991. Since confessionals are the vogue in these more transparent times, let it be admitted that this columnist has a soft corner for the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister. She faced terrible obstacles in her youth and early adulthood in a society marked by extreme patriarchy, and has done more for the girl child than any other politician in power. However, one wishes that she had not listened to the counsel of those who urged her to release Rajiv Gandhi's killers, for by doing so she has destroyed the faith of many who believed that she was strong on national security. Jayalalithaa may get a few more \"CM votes\" in her state because of the attempted release, but she has lost a much larger number of \"PM votes\" across the entire country by this step.\nBut what of Narendra Modi, one of whose electoral assets is that he is seen as being strong on national security? Thus far, there seems to be silence from him on Jayalalithaa's attempted release of the three LTTE men from prison. Hopefully, Narendra Modi will not go by the advice of friends in Delhi about what and when to say, and when to keep silent, for these are the very worthies who lost 2004 and 2009 for the BJP and who are on course to keep the BJP tally near 175 in May if they run the party campaign. When steps get taken that negatively impact national security, whether these be by friend or foe, it is expected of Narendra Modi that he will speak out, thereby ensuring that Modi remain what has brought him so very far, Modi.\nhttp://www.sunday-guardian.com/analysis/this-is-no-time-for-silence-mr-modi",

        "title": "The Writings of M D Nalapat: A friend of India wins in Taiwan (Sunday Guardian)",
        "raw_content": "A friend of India wins in Taiwan (Sunday Guardian)\nBy M.D. Nalapat | 30 January, 2016\nEver since Prime Minister Narendra Modi took office in 2014, the image of India in East Asia has risen to the status of a Great Power.\nTAIPEI: Unlike Sirimavo Bandaranaike, Indira Gandhi, Benazir Bhutto or Sheikh Hasina, the victorious candidate in the 2016 Presidential elections in Taiwan was not born into a political family. Tsai Ing-wen is, therefore, going to be the first non-dynast lady President (or Prime Minister) in Asia, if Tansu \u00c7iller is excluded on the grounds that EU prejudices against the Muslim-majority country notwithstanding, Turkey is European. She is also the first female Head of State (and government) in any Sinic country. Some within the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) may bridle at this, but the reality is that Taiwan is very much a part of the Sinic world. Indeed, a case could be made that the island is even more \u201cChinese\u201d in its culture than the nearby Peoples Republic of China, ever since the Cultural Revolution and other vicissitudes caused by Mao Zedong demolished much of existing traditions within the country. In Taiwan, there is a four-month hiatus between the election and the takeover of power by a new government, a length of time unusual in its length, so DPP Chairperson Tsai will take over as President Tsai only on 20 May. The four-year term is unlikely to be anything other than a choppy ride.\nEconomic growth has been flagging, causing a constriction of salaries and a lack of adequately paying jobs, especially for the young. There are predictions that President Xi Jinping will respond to the Taiwanese people\u2019s turfing out of Beijing\u2019s favourite, the KMT, in favour of its b\u00eate noire, the DPP, not simply in the Presidential polls but in the country\u2019s legislature as well. However, such a churlish reaction is unlikely. Xi will remember the hostile reception Beijing gave to the DPP\u2019s first Head of State, Chen Sui-bian, when he tried, hesitantly, to extend an olive sprig to the Chinese leadership, only to be rebuffed. The experience ensured that Chen reversed his fledgling efforts at conciliation throughout the rest of his term, goading China whenever and wherever he could in a manner reciprocated with compound interest by the other side.\nIn a move which must have delighted the Chinese Communist Party, incoming President Ma Ying-jeou of the KMT put ex-President Chen in jail on corruption charges soon after taking office, and there the former President remained till recently, when he was released into house arrest on grounds of ill-health. Radicals within the DPP are looking forward to repaying the compliment in the case of President Ma, by bringing up issues relating to his term in office as Mayor of Taipei, as well as a case involving the interception of telephone conversations of members of the legislature, although hopefully such a precedent \u2014 of putting a former Head of State belonging to a different party in jail once his or her successor takes over \u2014 will not be followed by incoming President Tsai. Certainly there are those in the KMT, and quite possibly some in President Ma\u2019s entourage as well, who merit prosecution and punishment, but it is doubtful that the current President of Taiwan is among them, vindictive though the jailing of his predecessor was.\nMore than domestic politics, what will worry incoming President Tsai will be the state of play between Taipei and Beijing. The new Head of State is very different from her DPP predecessor Chen Shui-bian, and in particular has way more experience in dealing with issues relating to China. On the other side of the Taiwan straits, President Xi Jinping is unlikely to adopt the tough approach of Jiang Zemin, who openly threatened Taipei with a show of military firepower. That ensured the defeat of the pro-China KMT in the subsequent elections.\nLike others across the globe, the Taiwanese do not like being bullied, and should China react to the Tsai victory by seeking to cut back on economic and other links (for example, by forcing down the number of tourists visiting the island), it would hurt both economies as well as erode the goodwill in Taiwan for China, the country from where the overwhelming majority of the people of Taiwan migrated from, over the past two centuries. However, Xi is facing a challenge in his efforts to downsize the immense power of the \u201cprinceling\u201d class over state enterprises, and is aware that Taiwanese businesses are core to the prosperity of the PRC, hence it is unlikely that Xi and Tsai will have the same tension-filled relationship as did Jiang and Chen.\nDuring the eight years that Ma Ying-jeou has been at the helm in Taipei, the relationship between Taiwan and China has reached a level unprecedented in recent history. The odds for stability are therefore higher than for tensions to boil over. And importantly for India, this is a country that Tsai Ing-wen has often referred to, and which she admires as the world\u2019s most populous democracy. Come 20 May, it is a certainty that linkages between India and Taiwan will grow at an accelerated pace. Since Prime Minister Narendra Modi took office in 2014, the image of India in East Asia has risen to the status of a Great Power, and Delhi is now firmly in the radar of all the capitals in the region.\nhttp://www.sundayguardianlive.com/opinion/2877-friend-india-wins-taiwan",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Business \u00bb Working With Solar Energy Companies in Maui\nWorking With Solar Energy Companies in Maui\nPosted on February 25, 2016 by Louis Shea in Business\nReducing the costs of powering a home can seem like a highly complicated task for a homeowner to undertake. However, this can be beneficial to both reducing electrical costs and minimizing the environmental impact of a home. Unfortunately, there are many people that are unsure of their options for achieving this goal. Luckily, there are Solar Energy Companies in Maui that have the expertise and training needed to help their clients reduce the power consumption of their homes without lowering their quality of life.\nThe installation of solar panels can be a great way of providing a home with power without needing to draw it from the power lines. Unfortunately, some people may be under the impression that this type of power is unreliable. This belief often stems from the idea that the panels will be unable to generate electricity when there are thick clouds or heavy rains. Luckily, this is not the case because the types of lights rays that create electricity are not blocked by most clouds.\nAnother reason homeowners may resist installing solar panels is that they are concerned that the panels will require extensive maintenance. Not surprisingly, many homeowners lack the time to invest many hours in upkeeping an accessory to the house. Fortunately, solar panels require very little maintenance. Outside of having them professionally serviced every couple of years and using a garden hose to rinse dirt and dust from the panels, there is nothing that must be done to maintain them.\nMaking the decision to install solar panels can be an excellent way of reducing energy costs and waste. However, homeowners can be very uninformed about this new technology, which can make it difficult to determine whether this is a suitable option. Understanding that these power systems will not be inhibited by clouds as well as the fact that they are extremely low maintenance can make this decision far easier for a homeowner to make. For those that want to speak with a representative from Solar Energy Companies in Maui, it is possible to learn more about a local provider that has years of experience meeting the needs of their clients.

        "raw_content": "I really like the Home Station Weather Clock. It\u2019s the perfect size to put on my desk without it taking up a lot of space. I really like that the time is very easy to read.The clock keeps accurate time, which is essential when trying to stay on a tight schedule. I have not had to reset the time nor adjust the time at all since receiving this product. I really like that the time, date, temperature, and humidity is displayed. The temperature readings are very accurate, as I have tested it against several different thermometer readings.\nNote: I received this weather station at a discount in exchange for an unbiased review.\nI bought this as a replacement for a similar device and have received an additional feature that is a fun one. The phases of the moon are also displayed which is a fun added feature. It shows the moon and where it is in its lunar cycle. The device also has an alarm on it. I have not used the alarm because I use it as a desk clock so I can\u2019t say how accurate the alarm is once set.\nI really love that the device includes a battery. It\u2019s not very common that products arrive with a battery included, so when I do find a product that has batteries included, I\u2019m impressed. All I had to do was remove the little piece of plastic wrapping on the battery to place it into the clock. I like that I had the option to activate the battery in the clock instead of the clock being shipped with the battery installed and draining before receiving it. The clock is ready to be set out of the box, which was a huge plus for me.\nA couple things that I wish were different about this device would be that it would provide an option for a backlight on the clock so that it would be easier to read when in a dimly lit room. A feature that I really feel is useless is at the top of the screen where there is an illustration of a cloud and a sun. This section does absolutely nothing and is a waste of space. I have found over time that it\u2019s supposed to show whether or not it\u2019s cloudy outside but this feature works intermittently. It\u2019s not accurate in the least so I would prefer to have the clock to be a larger size rather than have a faulty section. This little device does a lot for its size. But there is definite room for improvement.\nUpdate: The clock is currently unavailable on Amazon.\nTags: Clock Electronics & Electronic Accessories Household",

        "raw_content": "My ability to write gratitudes was the beginning to think positively for me. It didn\u2019t come easily and was not automatic. Like everything else though, practice made for progress, and it became easier as I continued on each day.\nFor those of us in any kind of recovery program, we saw we never were real quick when it came to putting strong empowering visuals to our words, especially if it meant expressing joy. Oh sure, we knew how to express anger and resentments; but, could we see with equal measure, the goodness that resided somewhere deep down in each of us? No. So, here is an exercise to bring to the surface, a balance of positivity necessary to infuse thoughts throughout our day with power to change our perspective.\nWhy are gratitudes important? Because many of us came here feeling short-changed, believing we have nothing to be grateful for. We were not born without gratitude, we have been conditioned for any number of reasons. Our job, if interested, is to begin a fact-finding mission to find the truth about who we are and what we\u2019re really made of. A dear friend once said, \u201cIn the Spiritual World, Believing is Seeing.\u201d Believing that we all are born in equal measure, with strong and negative attributes, journaling gratitude becomes the spiritual vehicle to a change of perspective. We sort out negativity and replace it instead, with positive, affirming threads of confidence.\nBefore you begin, please visit my Blog entitled Journaling Basics to help you become prepared and inspired.\nTry to Write Five Gratitudes Per Day! It would be helpful to begin each gratitude with, \u201cI am grateful for _____________________________ because IT MAKES ME FEEL __________________. That\u2019s right. How does the person, place or thing you\u2019re writing about make you feel?\nYour major book store will have a book entitled The Emotion Thesaurus by Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglisi that will be extremely useful if you need help identifying positive words to describe where you are right now. Another useful source is to go to Thesaurus.com which has also been immensely useful.\nDon\u2019t take yourself too seriously, have fun, and you will be amazed before you\u2019re halfway through!",

        "raw_content": "How To Lower Triglycerides\nTriglycerides are fat particles in the bloodstream created by the consumption of excess sugar, also known as refined carbohydrates, and then stored in fat cells or the liver to be converted into energy. If muscles are not used after eating these extra calories, triglycerides will continue to build up in the fat cells or the liver. Although the body needs triglycerides for energy, an overabundance of them can lead to obesity, heart disease, or stroke. Around twenty-five percent of American adults have high blood triglyceride levels. This is classified as being above two hundred milligrams.\nThe most common causes of elevated triglycerides include genetics, obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, high carbohydrate and high fat diets, excessive alcohol consumption, a sedentary lifestyle, hypothyroidism, renal disease, and certain medications. There are, however, some simple and proven ways to help lower triglycerides.\nFollow A Low Carbohydrate Diet\nLow Carbe Diem\nThe same as added sugar, high amounts of carbohydrates in an individual\u2019s diet are also turned into triglycerides and used as fat for energy. A study conducted in 2006 was done to look at how varying levels of carbohydrate consumption can increase or decrease triglycerides. The study found if individuals follow a low carbohydrate diet with about twenty-six percent of calories from carbs, showed lower triglycerides as compared to the group who had a higher carbohydrate intake with up to fifty-four percent of calories from carbs.\nA second study focused on the long term effects of both low and high carbohydrate diets across one year. The individuals who ate low carbohydrate diets experienced greater weight loss and lower triglycerides. Another 2003 study was done to compare low fat versus high carbohydrate diets. After six months, the conclusion of the study was the low carbohydrate group showed a triglyceride decrease of thirty-eight mg/dL (0.43 mmol/L), while the low-fat group only had a seven mg/dL (0.08 mmol/L) decrease of triglycerides.\nKeep reading to learn more about how to lower triglycerides now.",

        "raw_content": "A Review of Gabatrol\nAbout Gabatrol\nGabatrol is a nutritional supplement that claims to contain natural ingredients to help consumers lessen stress and anxiety, as well as boost a sense of comfort and quality of life. This is said to be achieved thanks to a more efficient kind of the amino acid GABA. This supplement can be used every day if required or during those times when one becomes anxious. Gabatrol is developed by Pure Life Distributor. The said manufacturer delivers a site that\u2019s solely focused on this supplement. This site also has customer feedbacks, comprehensive record of components, and a link to a blog that talks about stress and anxiety. A bottle of Gabatrol containing 45 capsules is priced at $39.95. There\u2019s also a trial size, which is a bottle containing of 20 capsules for $19.95. You can have a discounted price if you go for the bottle that contains 90 capsules.\nThis particular supplement has Phenyl-GABA, which is claimed to be a new and more powerful kind of the amino acid GABA. This serves as a neurotransmitter in the brain and improves GABA levels, which facilitate a comforting feeling and respite from anxiety. Gabatrol functions by stabilizing neurotransmitters and regulating electrical impulses between brain cells to facilitate mind lucidity. The supplement\u2019s exclusive formulation gives the complete strength and effectiveness of a few herbs that are recognized for their anti-anxiety traits, though these are given in smaller doses. The suggested dose for Gabatrol is 4-6 capsules each day if used on a regular basis. Based on the information on the site, 98% of consumers reported amazing effects while using Gabatrol. It is said that Gabatrol can work immediately, as fast as 15 minutes when you\u2019re on an empty stomach. If you\u2019re full or you\u2019ve just eaten, it\u2019ll work after 30-60 minutes. Its impact can last for 4-6 hours after taking one dosage.\nUnique proprietary matrix (Phenyl-GABA, L-Theanine, L-Tyrosine, L-Glycine, taurine, sceletiumtortuosum, and bioperine): 455 mg\nOther components are: gelatin, rice flour, silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate\nIt has a new and more effective type of the amino acid GABA.\nIts company touts that it works fast, as quick as 15 minutes on an empty stomach.\nIts official site provides a good deal for two or more items bought.\nIts company gives a 60-day refund policy.\nWhile it\u2019s generally regarded as safe to use Gabatrol alongside medications, it\u2019s still better to speak with your doctor first.\nThere are many customer reviews on its official site.\nGabatrol is accessible in a trial size.\nThe product is offered in either capsule or powder form.\nThis supplement is, by and large, harmless to take alongside medications like antidepressants and sedatives. Nonetheless, it could boost the sedative impact of these drugs. Gabatrol can be taken alongside blood pressure medications as well. Moreover, the supplement must not be used alongside MAO inhibitors. As mentioned, it is important that you seek for your doctor\u2019s recommendation first prior to taking the supplement alongside prescription drugs. Gabatrol is not recommended for those below 12 years old. Youngsters who are below 18 are only allowed to use with the approval and management of parents or guardians.\nFurthermore, Gabatrol can be used alongside birth control pills. If a woman is pregnant or breastfeeding, she needs to check with her doctor first if it\u2019s fine to use Gabatrol. The supplement can also boost the sedative impact of alcohol, so drinking should be moderate only. The product is not addictive, but there can be minor adverse reactions, such as sleepiness, elation, decreased shyness, as well as nausea and weariness.\nGabatrol is an interesting supplement since it has a fresh and more effective type of GABA, which is an amino acid that facilitates a soothing feeling and rest from stress. In contrast with similar supplements that could take weeks to take effect, Gabatrol touts to show results as quickly as 15 minutes and its positive effects are said to last up to six hours. A 60-day satisfaction guarantee is provided and there\u2019s also a trial size bottle available for only $19.95.\n5 Healthy Foods You Can Eat When You Don't Feel like Cooking\nDoes TestoForce Make a Great Deal of Difference?",

How long?\nMartin Luther, The Reformation and Why Not?\nOctober 31, 2017 ~ Woebegone but Hopeful\t~ Leave a comment\nThe common and popular media would have you believe that 500 hundred years ago today Martin Luther invented the Reformation. Naturally being the common and popular media this is somewhat inaccurate. As a dedicated and serious historian (See \u201cA True History of These Isles Vol. 1 (Prehistory to 1216 CE-ish)\u201d, available on Amazon Kindle $0.99/\u00a30.99- terms and conditions apply) it therefore falls upon myself to ensure the correct application of facts and a fair interpretation of both Luther and the events.\nLuther\u2019s Early Life\nMartin Luther was born 10th Nov 1483in Saxony into an industrious family; he had several siblings. His father insisted he become a lawyer. He seems to have had a typical education as he referred to his time in school as being both \u2018purgatory and hell\u2019, while his university (at Erfurt) was a \u2018beer and whorehouse\u2019. Despite this he received a Master\u2019s Degree in 1505. As his father was still stuck on the idea of his son being a lawyer Martin Luther was sent back to Erfurt to study just the law. He didn\u2019t like it and felt there was more to Life, so took to philosophy, but on encountering Reason and Logic felt he might be slipping back into Law. He concluded the only way to be worthwhile and content was to encounter God\nA Dramatic Event\nOn the 2nd Jul 1505, or so the records state, while walking in a field or riding on a road, he was struck by lightning, but survived. Not wishing to have that such a close encounter with God, as yet, weary of people inferring there were many other reasons why a student would be lying confused in a field and also not wishing to risk a repeat experience he became a monk.\nHow Things Were Done\nAt this time a large portion of Central Europe was supposed to be ruled by The Holy Roman Emperor. As was the custom of the time he divided his time between fighting the French while arguing with any pope as to who had the final say in things. In the meantime various princes, dukes, counts etc fought or sued each other, while suppressing peasants who rebelled or worse took the nobles to the courts. It was a good time for mercenaries and lawyers (Be fair, you can see Luther Snr\u2019s point of view).\nLuther in Conflict with The Church\nAt this time the Church had become very indulgent by making a rule which said you could do what you liked as long as you said you were sorry and paid a large amount of money to the Church. Luther thought this unfair upon the poor people and showed his displeasure by writing a version of the Bible in a very common language called The Vernacular while in 1517 (31st Oct) also by nailing to the door of a church a work of nine-five reasons why he was right. The Church authorities acted swiftly.\nIn 1521 he was summoned to a church court. Here, he defended his case with great eloquence for three or five days and then confused everyone by saying he had nothing to say and was going to stand there. Despite this clever and dramatic move The Church authorities said Luther was incorrect and thus an hysteric. They then condemned him to the terrible punishment of a Diet of Worms.\nThe Peasant\u2019s Official Revolt\nBecause Luther had been saying the Church was too wealthy and not Religious enough he had gathered a following. On hearing the news of the cruel sentence passed on him The Poor People were so outraged by this vile treatment that they rose in official rebellion (instead of their normal rowdy behavior). This started in 1524, a peasants\u2019 council was formed and in was agreed to upgrade the rebellion into a war. This ended in 1525, because the authorities could massacre better than peasants could massacre large armies.\nThe peasants however were good at wrecking churches, monasteries, and being not educated also libraries. Luther was disgusted with this and told them they should concentrate on praying, being rude to bishops and but listen to their rulers.\nThis was well-received by many of the nobility.\nLuther\u2019s Private Life\nDuring this turbulent time people were daring to think the unthinkable. This can be typified by the case of twelve nuns at a convent in Brehna, Saxony who were fed up of being nuns. On hearing of this Luther in a spirit of gallant manliness smuggled them out in herring barrels on the 4th April 1523. The Church authorities may have thought something fishy was going on but possibly shrewdly deduced he\u2019d end up in a pickle. He and one nun Katharina von Bora did however fall in love and marry, thus allowing all clergy to marry. When Katharina found out he\u2019d been living on hard bread and sleeping in a mildewed bed (or maybe the other way around) she soon sorted him out, Luther learning the great value of the phrase \u2018Yes Dear\u2019\nSeveral bishops and affiliated lesser nobility had tried to have Luther massacred but more sympathetic nobles kept hiding him. When the authorities realised he wasn\u2019t arguing with them, but only the bishops and rowdy peasants it became safe for him to come out of hiding. The first thing he had to do was to tell people to stop listening to people who were not reading The Bible but just having visions as you never knew where they\u2019d got those visons from. He wisely then set up his own church to ensure more Bible reading and singing of hymns.\nLuther had a family, his own church and a reformation, however in later years he also suffered with many types of ill-health which made him short-tempered, and sadly not amusingly irascible but down right unpleasantly rude. Being a typical man when admonished by his wife on this score he blamed someone else. This included in particular The Jews, which was very unfair because he was supposed to have read the Bible and it didn\u2019t need much of an excuse for the population to pick on Jews. This outlook of his may have led to a case of Terminal Stupidity as he died in 1546. Normal and balanced people do not subscribe to these later views and wish he\u2019d just to stuck more wholesome pastimes in his retirement such as tending to a garden or annoying bishops.\nLuther\u2019s Legacy\nIt can be argued that because of Luther there are a lot more ways of being Christian than there used to be. As long as people don\u2019t hurl insults or objects at each other over the matter then this is no bad thing.\nThe author wishes it to be known this article is originally based on a post of some two years ago (Whimsicalities Anyone?) which is so full of inaccuracies and incorrect assumptions that is has been fully overhauled.\nFor more interesting views on matters historical readers may (or may not) wish to consider investing in a copy of\nAvailable on Kindle (normal terms and conditions apply)\nDon\u2019t Just Imagine Your Dream Novel \u2014 Write It\nI need add no more.

You can\u2019t write a book without actually writing. And you can\u2019t write well if you\u2019re not interested in what you\u2019re writing about. If I were designing a workshop instead of a place to write, I\u2019d never get that thing done.\nDon\u2019t write what you know. Write what you WANT to know.

You\u2019re a writer, end of story.\nWhat do I mean by that? Well the word \u2018aspiring\u2019 means that you hope to be a writer one day. Let me say this to you in clear, plain English. If you write, you are a writer. If you continue to write, you continue to be a writer. There is no special club you need to join to be branded a writer. If what you do is writing, you are, by definition, a writer.\nNow you can be an \u201caspiring author\u201d. That makes sense, because an author is basically a writer who has published a book. Not every writer has published a book, so you could actually aspire to have your book published one day. Be an aspiring author, not an aspiring writer.\nIt also comes down\u2026\nYour future, not your pain.\nHere is a gentleman of true courage and fortitude.\nfonzandcancer blogging to encourage.\nThe reality of the past 7 years and the realisation that what I was interested in doing.

        "raw_content": "You\u2019ve heard it said, and maybe you have said it too, \u201cWouldn\u2019t it be wonderful to have our Lord in Person with me, so I can talk to Him personally, instead of praying to the unseen God?\u201d\nIf people asked about the God I worship, it would really helpful to point to where He is in the flesh. This is true more so in the face of danger and uncertainty. Wouldn\u2019t it be better to have God in the operation theatre, or when you stand in agony when a loves one died, or when the doctor tells you that cancer has taken hold of you?\nWe are not like the world\nA few Sundays ago we covered the principle of making a god for ourselves. The danger of making idols, or treating God like an idol, is that we would manipulate it, we would localise it (or assign a place for it to be or not be), or we can treat God as if He is a human being, or even worse, we can act as if we are He.\nPeople who worship anything other than the living God\u2014the Bible refers to these people as the world\u2014indeed do want some representation of their god. This was the case when God called his people to live amongst the nations, and it is still the case today.\nThe people then worshipped idols, but they also had leaders who were the embodiment of those gods. One such a person was the visible king. The idea was then, if they had a king with them in person, they were sure that their god was with them.\nThe Israelites were different, as the church of Jesus Christ should be. God warned the people through Moses:\nYou must not follow the statutes [or customs] of the nations I am driving out before you \u2026 I am Yahweh your God who set you apart from the peoples. (Leviticus 20:23\u201324, HCSB)\nEzekiel 20:32 tells us about the sinful mind of the people:\nLet us be like the nations, like the peoples of other countries, worshiping wood and stone. (Ezekiel 20:32, HCSB)\nAll of this sprang from a rebellious heart:\nThey rejected His statutes and His covenant He had made with their ancestors and the decrees He had given them. They pursued worthless idols and became worthless themselves, following the surrounding nations the Lord had commanded them not to imitate. (2 Kings 17:15, HCSB)\nGod\u2019s people are different\u2014or to use the biblical term: holy, set apart. Let\u2019s hear Leviticus 20:26:\nYou are to be holy to Me because I, Yahweh, am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be Mine. (Leviticus 20:26, HCSB)\nGod said about his people as a nation of priests:\n\u2026 He will elevate you to praise, fame, and glory above all the nations He has made, and that you will be a holy people to the Lord your God as He promised.\u201d (Deuteronomy 26:19)\nJohn writes, \u201cDo not love the world.\u201d James warns:\nDon\u2019t you know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? So whoever wants to be the world\u2019s friend becomes God\u2019s enemy. (James 4:4, HCSB)\nWhen the elders approached Samuel for a king, they used as springboard the sad state of affairs regarding Samuel sons. The Bible states: \u201cHis sons did not walk in his ways\u2014they turned toward dishonest profit, took bribes, and perverted justice.\u201d (1Samuel 8:3).\nThen there was this nagging political situation of the different tribes action as separate groups\u2014there was no national unity. If only they had a king, they could at least point to someone who would lead them in a time of crisis.\nBut do not lose sight of their plea: they wanted to fix a spiritual problem with a political solution.\n\u201cLook, you are old, and your sons do not follow your example. Therefore, appoint a king to judge us the same as all the other nations have.\u201d (1 Samuel 8:5, HCSB)\nIt actually looked as if they wanted to blend into one the office of judge (which up to then included the offering of sacrifices, and the intercession of prayers) into one office, by adding military command (see 1Samuel 8:20). Or at least they craved for a political figure who would have supremacy.\nIn essence the proposal was a rejection of God\u2019s ways and an attempt to find security in a visible leader.\nThis is an attitude more so in our day: the so-called cry to separate church and state is a disguised attempt to shove the church into a corner to which no-one wants to listen to. Who today would be satisfied to put his life into the hands of a so-called invisible God! If the stupid Christians want to, let them do it in their corner on Sundays; but modern reasonable people want a visible force to provide security.\nJust in the previous chapter the people of God experienced how He was their King and Protector. They even had a stone as memorial to the fact: \u201cEbenezer! The Lord has helped us to this point.\u201d When God thundered against the Philistines, they were utterly overcome and Israel regained territory. See, they put a full stop after Ebenezer: \u201cto this point\u201d. After that they wanted to take things in their hands, dethrone the God of Hosts from his position as their Commander in Chief.\nThey enjoyed security, but wanted to add the visible king\u2014a human being\u2014to unite the people as a political entity, and as such be like the nations around them. If the nations would ask them, \u201cWho is your Commander?\u201d, at least they could point to someone!\nWhat foolishness!\nBut perhaps we should not be too quick to judge them. Don\u2019t we do the same? How much to we lean on political leaders for our security and success. Even as a church we stand guilty. Many operations of churches today stands and falls on the financial support of the state. Aged care facilities, hospitals, youth centres, and even schools, can only run for as long as tax money flows in. The result: they pay and have the say! They play the tune and we have to dance. They determine policies of who can be hired, when and where we can read the Scriptures and we should or should\u2019t pray.\nIsn\u2019t it time that we once again begin to trust to Lord for his work? This was the case when Christians started hospitals and aged care facilities: it was run by people who really cared, really loved, and really trusted God.\nHow much have we become reliant on the military and other uniform personnel as the only source for our safety!\nSamuel had seen all of this once before: the priests did not know God, and the people used God as a lucky charm\u2014God, as their Commander and Protector, was not in the picture in the time of old Eli. So he personally rejected with their request, but as a faithful mediator between God and the people, he took their request to Him.\nWhat he suspected was confirmed; God said:\nThey are doing the same thing to you that they have done to Me, since the day I brought them out of Egypt until this day, abandoning Me and worshiping other gods. (1 Samuel 8:8, HCSB)\nThat\u2019s the heart of the issue. One cannot fool God! He looks right into your heart and knows your thoughts even before they become words. They didn\u2019t really wanted a king; they wanted to substitute their King with a fallible human being!\nSamuel had to warn the people clearly about the \u201cways\u201d, or \u201cjustice\u201d of the king they wanted. The word in Hebrews is justice, which can mean custom, orders, rules and regulations\u2014ordinances and decrees he would use to secure his position and to rule over the people.\nWithout going into the detail of the things mentioned, there is one word which stands out: \u201ctake!\u201d Up to that point in time this word is connected with evil: Eli\u2019s sons took which belonged to God, the Philistines took which belonged to God, Samuels sons took bribes. This king will take\u2014the sons and daughters God gave you as a gift of his love and care, the king will take. The lands and the crops which God freely gave, the king will take; your income he will take.\nNothing has changed! It is still ongoing. It\u2019s just become worse. The more we move into becoming a totalitarian state the more we will see that what is precious to us, are taken from us: our children are stolen from us. They control what our children think, what they speak about, what freedoms we have, and how much we will spend, as long as we feel safe under their so-called protection. This is the price one pays for not trusting God, and with governments who play God.\nMoses ends with this warning: they will become slaves of the king they ask for.\nVerse 18 is poignant:\nWhen that day comes, you will cry out because of the king you\u2019ve chosen for yourselves, but the Lord won\u2019t answer you on that day.\u201d (1 Samuel 8:18, HCSB)\nBe careful what you ask for, God may grant you your prayers.\nThe warning was spoken, but rebellious hearts were in motion.\n\u201cNo!\u201d they said. \u201cWe must have a king over us. (1 Samuel 8:19, HCSB)\nThey asked for justice, and justice they received.\nNo anarchy\nWe are not propagating anarchy\u2014national life without any ruler or government. The idea of kingship as such was actually something foreshadowed in the Law. Deuteronomy 17 speaks about it. The future king was to be God\u2019s chosen one, not chosen to be like the nations, he had to live under God, he had to study the Law of God, so that his heart would not be exalted over his countrymen. That was the will of God.\nChristians are not rebellious over and against governments. Paul wrote to the Romans,\nEveryone must submit to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist are instituted by God. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. (Romans 13:1\u20133, HCSB)\nBut our hope should never be in mere fallible human beings. Our hope is in our King, Jesus Christ. Only He should reign our minds and our hearts. Paul writes:\nDo not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. (Romans 12:2, HCSB)\nAnd when principle calls for it, we should add our voices to those of Peter and John:\n\u201cWhether it\u2019s right in the sight of God for us to listen to you rather than to God, you decide; for we are unable to stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.\u201d (Acts 4:19\u201320, HCSB)\nThere is another King. He did not take, but He gave: He gave away his heavenly splendour to become like us; He gave his life, so that we would not die; He gave eternal life\u2014all free. He gave us real justice. Listen to this verse:\nWe all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified [this is God\u2019s justice!] by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in King Jesus.\u2026 This was to show God\u2019s justice.\u2026 It was to show his justice at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. (A paraphrase of Romans 3:23-26)*\n*(Woodhouse, J. (2008). 1 Samuel: Looking for a leader.

        "raw_content": "Posted by TheBigHenry \u2022 LABELS: featured, Life (and Other Concepts), Oh the humanity\nYouth is wasted on the young. \u2014 George Bernard Shaw\nGeorge Bernard Shaw's bon mot might have focused on his wistful recollection of opportunities squandered on superficial objectives, especially in the physical prime of life. But it is my opinion that there is much more waste of opportunity through failure to recognize one of its prime resources: the living repository of lessons learned in the school of hard knocks \u2014 our senior citizenry.\nI think that in large measure such negligent avoidance of senior guidance is a gross waste of one of our enduring resources. The culture that disparages words of empirical wisdom as \"old wives tales\" or the mutterings of geezers is doomed to repeat the inanities of youthful foolishness and the excesses of mid-life crises. Sadly, such cultural shortsightedness appears to be universal.\nI think the blame for such waste is widespread as well. Young people have a natural tendency to rebel against the \"old ways\", and they give much more credence to the unschooled opinions of their contemporaries than their contemporaries' general lack of experience deserves. Their parents are too busy scrambling for solutions to problems self-imposed in the processes of their own rebellions. And the grandparents, who have knowledge of at least some general purpose solutions to certain recurring problems, are often tired of trying to convince the younger generations that they have something of value to share.\nAnd so the human comedy keeps on keeping on, down through the generations, as each new generation re-invents the wheel of self-inflicted adversity. To err is human. To keep on making the same age-related mistakes? Well, that seems to be the human condition, too.\nNow hear this, young people: Barack Obama \u2014 very bad medicine. Trust me.

We've been working closely and coordinating our activity to coincide with public guidance issued by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) and the WRA.\nThe project would not have been possible without the collaboration and understanding of all departments across government. Close working between the different departmental teams has led to a coordinated approach and resulted in a deep understanding of what customers need. Contributions from each departmental team have enabled joint guidance to be informative, joined-up, efficient and relevant.\nWe're confident that this interaction will support the changes within our joint customer base and minimise disruption to the conveyancing process in the two countries.\nCurrently, HM Land Registry practice requires evidence of payment of Stamp Duty Land Tax as made within the determined thresholds and this will also apply and be mirrored for Welsh Land Transaction Tax. As we are just a few weeks away, we have been busy adjusting our system to accept the receipt of the Land Transaction Tax Certificate.\nUpgrades have been made to Business Gateway and the portal, our online transactional channels that professional customers use, to accept the new Welsh Revenue Authority tax forms, as have our postal intake processes. If you use these channels, you'll start to see some of the changes now, as you process registrations. Supporting practice guides are available to help customers correctly lodge their applications for registration.\nRead more about boundaries on GOV.UK\nGet more information about taxation from HMRC and the WRA\nIf you have any questions, email: antoinette.jeremiah@landregistry.gov.uk\nTags: Conveyancing",

        "raw_content": "September 24, 2016 CharlotteStudiesNo Comments\nAshley Madison with its old tagline \u2013 \u201cLife is Short. Have an Affair.\u201d was actively promoting extramarital affairs through their website. They provided a virtual rendezvous for people who may not be happy or sexually unsatisfied with their partners, or just the forever adventurous. A user who wishes to remove their account needs to pay a certain amount for full deletion. With the kind of business they are running, users of their service expects that their information are safe and expects tighter security for their privacy.\nThe Impact Team used the hacked data as a hostage to be released to the public if ALM was not immediately shut down. In our standards of morality, being unfaithful to a spouse is an unacceptable act and even a crime in legal grounds. In this perspective, the Impact Team are like the Dark Knight who punished the criminals with their own form of justice.\nFueled by their beliefs of what is right and wrong, the hackers pushed their moral ideals to action. Doing acts that are ethically wrong by hacking and hostaging data, they wanted to put a stop at ALM\u2019s morally questionable operations. From my personal standpoint, I agree to as much as that infidelity is wrong. However, from a computer ethics perspective this is without a doubt unethical.\nALM didn\u2019t budge to the Impact Team\u2019s demands, which resulted to a leak of more than 25GB of data to the public on August 18 and 20. The leaked data included a lot of user information from their names, credit cards, addresses and even sexual fetishes.\nThe aftermath of the scandalous leak is immense, a $567 million class-action lawsuit against Avid Dating Life and Avid Media were filed by affected users. Besides the damages to the company, users with their data leaked suffered a great deal of humiliation, it may even lead to broken marriages and family. Furthermore, there were also reports of suicide from the affected users.\nNot only did the Impact Team committed a crime by intruding ALM\u2019s servers and stealing data. They also disregarded the privacy of the users of ALM. They did not care about the individual damages these people would face \u2013 if they may lose their jobs, divorced by their spouses, be hated by their children and/or be ostracized by society.\nMy personal views align with the Impact Team for this issue. Although the victims of the leak may have their own personal lives ruined, they should be well aware and accountable for the consequences of their actions. Even without a website like Ashley Madison, a person caught cheating will have negative effects to their reputation, marriage and family.\nReference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashley_Madison_data_breach",

We became instant friends with him joining our table every day thereafter. During my high school years, I was not looking to date which resulted in us being in the friend zone. However, this did not push him away. After college, we drifted apart but on our 10th-year high school reunion, which was canceled, we got in contact with each other and planned to meet. It was like we had never drifted, our connection was just as it had been back in high school except, that now we were both ready to take it to the next level.\nAfter 3 years dating and many conversations about reaching other goals before marriage, the furthest thing from my mind was that he would propose. Which is why it was a complete surprise when he finally asked the question. One week before he proposed, he had told me we were invited to have dinner with his boss in NYC and that since we were going to be in the city we should dress nice and plan to go out afterward. The day of the \u201cdinner\u201d he picked me up late and was rushing the whole time there which is why I found it strange when he decided he wanted to get out caricature drawn by a street artist. At first, I refused to waste time but after a few seconds I was like \u201cwhy not\u201d.\nAs we were sitting there waiting for the artist to finish I started to get a strange feeling that something was up, however, \u201cproposal\u201d was the furthest from my mind, that was until the artist told me to stand up and turn around because he wanted to surprise us with the finished portrait. When he told me I could turn and see, I turned to find Yascarlo down on one knee holding out a ring and asking if would accept to become his wife and of course I said YES with tears rolling down my face.\nAs we were there hugging and kissing I open my eyes and look towards the restaurant we were in front of to see his and my entire family and our closest friends. To make the moment more memorable the artist had actually prepared a framed portrait of us and him once again popping the question. It was perfect!",

        "raw_content": "Please join the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission for a briefing on the human rights and religious freedom issues facing the Ahmadiyya Muslim community.\nThe Ahmadiyya movement has 10 to 20 million followers worldwide. The movement originated in northern India in the late 19th century with Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who believed he was chosen by Allah to renew Islam. Ahmadis stress non-violence, the tolerance of other faiths, and place a high priority on the building of mosques, schools and hospitals.\nBetween one half and four million Ahmadis live in Pakistan, where they have been declared non-Muslim in the Constitution and face legal and societal discrimination and violence from non-state actors. Ahmadis are among the most common defendants charged in criminal cases of blasphemy, which can carry the death penalty, and authorities in Punjab have targeted Ahmadis under Pakistan\u2019s anti-terrorism laws. Attacks committed against them by mobs and militant groups often take place with impunity.\nIn addition to Pakistan, Ahmadis have faced persecution in other countries, including Algeria and Indonesia. Ahmadi leaders in Algeria were arrested and imprisoned in 2017, and the community continues to face stigmatization in the press, and harassment and threats of arrest by police. Ahmadis in Indonesia have been declared \u201cnon-Islamic, deviant and misled\u201d by national Islamic authorities, and face legal restrictions and mob attacks.\nPanelists will discuss the human rights situation of Ahmadis in Pakistan and elsewhere, and offer recommendations for how Congress can advocate on their behalf.\nThe Congressional Ahmadiyya Muslim Caucus\nRep.

        "raw_content": "The Downward Spiral to Drive-In Prostitution: Is America Next?\nBy Dawn Hawkins on August 21, 2013\u2014\n\u201cDrive-ins aren\u2019t just for fast food and movies anymore\u2014if you\u2019re in Europe, that is.\nWith Switzerland\u2019s announcement that it spent a whopping $2 million on a plan to provide \u201cdrive-in prostitution,\u201d complete with \u201csex boxes,\u201d it makes you wonder how their priorities and social norms became so distorted. Certainly the easy availability of pornography is a contributing factor.\nHardcore pornography is commonplace in European countries, available on TV networks and at magazine stands in public areas. \u201cEnlightened Europeans\u201d claim the widespread acceptance of this sexually exploitive material is without effect in society. Or is it?\nStudies indicate there is a high correlation between the consumption of porn and the use of prostituted women and sexually trafficked women and children. Research on the topic can be found at pornharmsresearch.com.\nSwitzerland, along with other countries like the Netherlands and Germany, legalized prostitution years ago and is now taking further steps to promote prostitution. In Switzerland, they are providing \u201csex boxes,\u201d similar to rest stops at national parks in the U.S. This is all for the convenience of the \u201cjohns,\u201d who are in a hurry and who just drive up for quick sex. They say this is for the health and safety of those prostituted, but this is not a sign of a healthy society. It will eventually lead where all efforts to promote prostitution lead\u2014to more health problems, more trafficked victims and further degradation of society.\nIn the United States, we have laws that ban hard-core pornography and prostitution. We have seen how trafficking, violence against women, the sexualization of children and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases have increased because we ignore these laws. Unless we take strong steps to stop this downward spiral and curb the spread of pornography and prostitution, can sex boxes be far behind in America? We think not and continue to demand that existing laws prohibiting the distribution of hard-core pornography, sex trafficking and prostitution be vigorously enforced.\u201d\nPosted in Human Trafficking, Human Trafficking Awareness, Prostitution, Sexual Exploitation\nMEXICO: The Drug Cartels\u2019 Other Business\u2014Sex Trafficking\nBULGARIA: Border Police Bust Criminal Group for Human Trafficking",

        "raw_content": "American Voice 2004: What\u2019s the deal with recess appointments?\nQ. President Bush made two recess appointments of federal judges in early 2004. Democrats condemn him for bypassing the traditional Senate confirmation process. Republicans counter that recess appointments are a President\u2019s constitutional right, a common historical practice that as recently as 2000 Democratic President Clinton has been utilized. What gives?\nBear with me. This gets a little tricky. As we all learned so long ago that by now most of us have forgotten, the Constitution gives the President the authority (Article II, Section 2) to nominate and \u201cby and with the Advice of the Senate appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court and all other officers of the United States.\u201d What most of us never learned is that Section 2 contains another clause that grants the President the \u201cpower to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate, by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session.\u201d\nThe framers recognized that the Senate would not always be in session to give advice and consent to presidential nominations. To cover these periods, the President is authorized to make recess appointments that are needed to keep government operating effectively. This provision was adopted at the Constitutional Convention without a dissenting vote and with virtually no record to fix its intent and scope.\nThe vast majority of Presidents have made use of recess appointments. The vast majority were to fill civil service or other senior executive level positions. However, recess appointments have also been used to appoint judges and this is where much of the controversy arises.\nSince the first judicial recess appointment made by President George Washington, more than 300 have occurred, including several Justices to the Supreme Court.\nAs the Constitution indicates, a recess appointment is temporary, lasting only until the next Senate session. President Bush\u2019s two appointments, William Pryor Jr. to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals and Charles Pickering Sr. to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals will serve until January 2005 after which their appointments will lapse unless they are confirmed by the Senate.(They could theoretically be reappointed during another recess but that would be unprecedented.)\nIn most cases recess-appointees have not been controversial. Approximately 85 percent of all recess-appointees have subsequently been confirmed by the Senate.[1]\nWhile often used, the power of a President to appoint judges during a recess has just as often been challenged. A 2001 analysis of judicial decisions and Attorney General and Comptroller General opinions by the Congressional Research Service concludes, \u201cthe President\u2019s use of recess appointments for federal judges remains an unsettled constitutional issue.\u201d[2]\nTwo major arguments have been raised to limit the ability of Presidents to make recess appointments. One deals with the definition of the word \u201crecess\u201d. Some constitutional scholars argue that in the early years of the Republic recesses lasting many months were common, before transportation improvements shortened the trip back home and mid-session breaks were introduced.\nIn 1901 Attorney General Philander Knox advised President Theodore Roosevelt that a recess constituted the \u201cperiod following the final adjournment for the session\u201d. He added, \u201cAny intermediate temporary adjournment is not such a recess, although it may be a recess in the general and ordinary use of that term.\u201d Twenty years later the Justice Department concluded that an adjournment in the middle of a session, from August 24 to September 21, was of sufficient duration to permit recess appointments by the President. However, the Attorney General cautioned, if a President could make recess appointments during an intrasession adjournment from August 24 to September 21, \u201cdoes it not necessarily follow that the power exists if an adjournment for only 2 instead of 28 days is taken? I unhesitatingly answer this by saying no.\u201d The term recess requires \u201ca practical construction.\u201d When the Senate adjourns for two days, it remains in session. \u201cNor do I think an adjournment for 5 or even 10 days can be said to constitute the recess intended by the Constitution.\u201d[3]\nAfter President Bush\u2019s appointment of Charles Pickering Sr. during a 10 day Senate recess in February Senator Ted Kennedy(D-MA) indicated he would ask the 11th Circuit Court, where Pryor was seated, to rule on whether a l0 day adjournment could be defined as a Constitutional recess with respect to Article II.\nThe second argument against judicial recess appointments involves another part of the Constitution, Article III which states, \u201cJudges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behavior and shall receive a compensation which shall not be diminished during their continuances in Office.\u201d Life tenure and salary guarantees were designed so that those who appear before a federal court can be sure the judges are immune from political pressure. Judicial independence was one of the most important attributes of federal judiciary and one that differentiated it from many state benches.\nFederal judges have life appointments unless impeached but recess appointed judges do not. That raises an issue that has been adjudicated twice in the federal courts. Each time the plaintiff was a person who had been convicted by a court on which a recess appointed judge sat and said that since that judge was still subject to confirmation by the Senate the defendant was not guaranteed an impartial judge by the terms of the constitution.\nA three judge panel of the Ninth Circuit Court in U.S. v. Woodley(1983) agreed. The recess appointments of judges \u201coffend the explicit and unambiguous command of article III that the judicial power be exercised only by those enjoying life tenure and protection against diminution of compensation.\u201d[4] A majority of the Court voted to rehear the case with all of the 11 judges participating (en banc). The full court ruled in favor of judicial recess appointments 7-4.\nThe four dissenters argued there is an inherent constitutional conflict between the broad language of the recess appointments clause and the judicial independence language in Article III. One had to give way. To them, judicial independence was more important than administrative efficiency.\nThe Congressional Research Service noted that since the 1960s Presidents have restricted their use of judicial appointments. \u201cAs a result of the controversy over the Eisenhower recess appointments of Warren, Brennan and Stewart there appears to be a political agreement that the President should not use recess appointments for Justices of the Supreme Court.\u201d\nBetween 1969 and 2000 there were only two judicial recess appointments to lower federal courts. On December 31, 1980 President Carter appointed Walter Heen to be a district judge in Hawaii. On January 12, 1981 President Reagan withdrew Heen\u2019s nomination. Heen continued to sit on the district court until December 16, 1981, when the first session of the 97th Congress ended. The Congressional Research Service(CRS) notes that, \u201cAfter President Carter\u2019s appointment of Judge Heen, there seemed to a similar agreement for lower court judges.\u201d\nOn December 27, 2000 President Clinton announced the recess appointment of Roger L. Gregory to the Fourth Circuit. The CRS notes that because of that action \u201cthe dispute over recess appointments for district courts and the federal circuits has been rekindled.\u201d[5]\n[1] Buck, S., J. Ho, B. McGurk, T.

        "title": "Dear Dr. Helen, how do I pick a career that\u2019s just right for me? |",
        "raw_content": "by Dr. Helen Ofosu | Nov 17, 2018 | Are advanced degrees worthwhile, blog, career advice, career change / career transition |\nFalling into negative ruts and difficult breakups \u2026 and no, I\u2019m not talking about romance gone wrong. I\u2019m talking about the places where we work and the careers that we pick which sometimes feel like a doomed relationship, and with bad patterns that repeat themselves.\nHave you ever heard someone say, \u201cI keep picking the wrong guy/girl\u201d? Or, do you cringe on the inside while watching your close friend\u2019s terrible relationship choices play out in a predictably unpleasant manner? What if we make similarly poor decisions when selecting our careers? Do we make unwise, impulsive choices when it comes to pursuing employment that can ultimately affect our livelihoods and professional development the same way that a bad romantic relationship can spoil our happiness? The short answer is yes. I have come to realize that picking the right long-term career can be just as impactful as picking a compatible life mate.\nIf your work history feels like one bad break up after another or you\u2019re not getting the success that you want, then read this Q&A.\nQ1. You have put careers and romantic partnerships on a fairly equal footing. Why do you make this comparison?\nA1. Too often, in magazine articles and advice columns (e.g., Dear Abby) which are mostly geared towards women and girls, there is advice about how to pick the right guy, or how to know if that person is \u2018the one,\u2019 and even how to get that person even if they seem unattainable. So much emphasis is on \u2018picking\u2019 the \u2018right\u2019 relationship to attain a happy life. But what isn\u2019t discussed nearly as often is how to pick the right career path. These days most families need two incomes to be comfortable enough to have some financial security. Even when we are happy at home, having a miserable existence at work, where we spend most of our working hours, dampens our spirits. Unemployment, underemployment, and precarious employment are extremely stressful and normally coincide with lower earnings. Conflicts around money are one of the biggest problems which lead to divorce. The good news is that it\u2019s usually easier to improve a career situation than it is to improve a romantic relationship.\nQ2. So, I\u2019ve heard that most people require at least 7 jobs or more in their lifespan. Is that a sign that they aren\u2019t picking the right career?\nA2. Yes, you\u2019re onto something. According to Workopolis, \u201cCanadians can expect to hold roughly 15 jobs in their careers.\u201d That article goes on to say \u201cThe most common reasons people gave for changing career paths were discovering a new field they were passionate about (35%), becoming bored/disillusioned with their original work (24%), and setbacks such as lack of advancement and/or cutbacks, layoffs in a career path (19%).\u201d\nI believe there is value in gaining work experience by trying out different work environments and roles. Likewise, it\u2019s often wise to date a little rather than marry the first person you go out with. With that said, most people already know what they are drawn to \u2013 both in their personal and professional lives. However, not everyone is equally skilled or self-aware and may not know how to go about it. That\u2019s we here I come in to help, sort of like a matchmaker but for careers.\nI will also add that modern careers are more fraught than careers were in the past. A good education no longer guarantees a bright future due to issues like artificial intelligence, automation, and the rise in part-time/precarious employment.\nQ3. Most people invest time, money, effort and emotional labour into their romantic relationships, and because of that, they have difficulty leaving a bad situation, even when they know it\u2019s for the best. Does this happen with work too?\nA3. I see this problem all the time with clients who have spent significant time and money acquiring a solid education with specific career goals in mind, but slowly realize that their job (or something about their role or work environment) doesn\u2019t suit them. There are others who settle for a job that\u2019s \u2018better than nothing\u2019 but was never satisfactory. Then, as time passes, they become pigeon-holed or type-cast in the wrong type of role. I\u2019ve also had clients who have settled into a long-term position but after gaining years of experience they\u2019re now way overqualified for their job. All these clients become disillusioned and uncertain about how to get out of a deep rut. That\u2019s is why seeing someone like me can help a person gain a fresh perspective and make their career upgrade easier.\nQ4. We sometimes hear people say they have no problem getting first dates, but they have trouble finding someone worth seeing for a second date. What would you tell someone who has no difficulty getting a job \u2013 yet they always feel like they get the wrong job?\nA4. Just as I would say to a friend who complains they are good at getting dates but not really clicking with those dates, I\u2019d remind them that it\u2019s wise to have certain standards and expectations of what you are looking for \u2013 whether it is a relationship or a career. Regarding work, is it stability, a collegial environment, opportunities to learn and develop, fair/equal pay, a manageable workload, a reasonable schedule? These are factors worth considering.",

(12, September 2015) \u2013 Dutch smokers, after years of tobacco control policies, are generally unconcerned about the dangers of smoking and second hand smoke, according to an international comparative study published today.\nThe International Tobacco Control Policy Evaluation Project (ITC Project) led by Professor Geoffrey T. Fong from the University of Waterloo, presented their findings in Maastricht at the European meeting of the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco.\nThe Full Report is available for download in English. An Executive Summary is available in both English and Dutch. This press release is also available for download in English.\nCompared with fifteen other countries studied, the Netherlands has the lowest percentage of smokers reporting that they often think about the harm of smoking to themselves (22%) or to others (9%). Moreover, fewer Dutch smokers than smokers in other countries realize that heart disease, stroke and lung cancer can be caused by smoking or that heart disease in non-smokers can be caused by exposure to second hand smoke.\nIn 2005 the Netherlands signed the World Health Organisation\u2019s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control\u2014the first-ever health treaty--obligating the country to take measures to reduce smoking. The ITC Project findings reveal that tobacco control policies in the Netherlands are not as effective as policies elsewhere in the world.\n\u201cOnly 21% of smokers in the Netherlands have negative attitudes toward smoking, which is the second lowest among thirteen countries the ITC Project is studying,\u201d said Professor Fong from Waterloo\u2019s Department of Psychology. \u201cThe Dutch have a relatively poor understanding of the dangers of smoking and exposure to second hand smoke, which is disturbing.\u201d\nThe comparative study by the ITC Project measured a cohort of more than 2,000 Dutch smokers against others from around the world. The project found that smokers around the world had a better perception of the risks associated with smoking.\n\u201cWe are concerned that the poor understanding of the risk of smoking in the Netherlands is directly connected to a near-absence in education campaigns over the past five years,\u201d said Fong. \u201cWe are calling on the Dutch government to make new and stronger investments in educational campaigns to reduce tobacco use.\u201d\nITC Netherlands-2015-PressRelease-FINAL-GF-Sep10.pdf",

I had not come across the ideas of Carl Jung on \u201cthe shadow\u201d at that point in my life. So it would never have occurred to me that the scary person I was running from was myself.\nI can\u2019t clearly remember the dreams now \u2013 I\u2019m 65 years old for Pete\u2019s sake. But, based on what I do remember, at that time in my life, I can make a few guesses as to what was going on. There was a part of me that was, frankly, full of rage \u2014 raw, barely contained, unadulterated rage.\nEvery family has certain rules of behavior. Sometimes, they are clearly spelled out, but often family rules are unspoken. Just based on my perception of things as a child, the rules about rage in my family were these: Dad and my older brother could express rage, but no one else was allowed. Dad\u2019s rage was like a volcanic eruption \u2014 never physically violent, but very loud and the cause for me running and hiding for cover. My older brother\u2019s rage was expressed whenever he was on the losing end of a neighborhood football or baseball game. He would stomp, yell and then pout and walk off the field in a huff.\nBut me \u2014 not so much. Oh, I would cry sometimes when I was angry, or I would withdraw, or on the other side of my rage, I would make nice as I tried to get on the good side of whoever had offended me. But never, never, never was I to raise my voice. On one occasion, when I fairly calmly told my mother I was angry with her, she went screaming down the hall, stating that I was driving her crazy!\nSo, I learned my lessons well. Don\u2019t be angry, or if you are, keep it to yourself.\nThe Shadow feeds on such stuff, growing larger and larger each time we stuff into some invisible place within us the things we either can\u2019t or won\u2019t acknowledge. Like most things that are left in the basement of the psyche, such stuff tends to mold and fester, eventually taking on a life of its own. Anger repressed usually turns into depression or acting out \u2014 and I\u2019ve had my share of both, thank you.\nBecoming healthy and whole is certainly a lifelong challenge, and when we do our shadow-work, we move the ball of our spiritual growth a little further down the field, so to speak. When the Apostle Paul said for us to \u201cBe angry, but do not sin,\u201d I think what he was getting at is the idea of bringing up from the basement part of our soul the stuff that needs the healing light of day. What we can\u2019t see or feel or touch usually controls us. What we can acknowledge and express in a conscious, caring way becomes a resource for our health and growth.\nPosted in Anger, Depth psychology, Shadow, Shadow Work\nAugust 2, 2018 by John B. Rowe, Ph.D.\nDo Dreams Tell You What to Do?\nDo dreams ever tell us literally what to do with our lives? Do they tell us what decision to make? When to change jobs, or when to move to a new locale, or what relationship to pursue?\nHere is what Carl Jung had to say about this question:\n\u201cA dream never says what one ought to do\u2026.You must know the details of the conscious condition in order to interpret a dream, for the dream is made up of all we don\u2019t live or become conscious of. In my conscious I might go too far to the right. When you lean too far over on one side, there will be a compensation in the unconscious. The unconscious is like a compass, it doesn\u2019t tell you what to do. Unless you can read the compass it cannot help you.\u201d (Lecture, 1929)\nJung\u2019s words are consistent with his concept of the Self, which is sort of like a psychic compass. He believed that there is an unconscious organizing principle within each of us that is constantly working behind the scenes to bring us into line with who we truly are. It\u2019s as if there is a mysterious person or entity or energy within us that is always praying for our healing and wholeness, whether we are conscious of it or not. John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, called this \u201cprevenient grace\u201d \u2013 an unfortunate term, actually, since no one ever uses the word \u201cprevenient.\u201d But the meaning, I think, is the same.\nIn a recent dream, I was deep underwater, and I swam up to a window on a deep water vessel, like a spaceship. As I peered inside, I saw a group of people and a woman in the act of giving birth. As the doctor delivered the child, he looked over his shoulder and shouted, \u201cWell, isn\u2019t anyone going to say \u2018thank you\u2019?\nI am struck by this poignant question and how it is addressed to my conscious self \u2013 my ego (self with a little \u201cs\u201d). It\u2019s as if this larger sense of Self that is underwater, but very active in bringing things to birth for my conscious enjoyment and usage, is challenging the way I am apparently an outsider to my own experience of mystery.\nHow many times have I been given a solution to a problem by sleeping on it? Or how many times has something new and unexpected come into my life \u2014 a new relationship, or a new opportunity, a wonderful new book, or a new and fulfilling direction \u2014 and yet, I have treated these instances of amazing grace with relative indifference. It\u2019s as if my sense of gratitude is represented by me \u201clooking in\u201d on the mysteries of my own life, rather than really joining the celebration.\nSo, my dream doesn\u2019t tell me, \u201cJohn, be more thankful!\u201d But it sure shows me where I am in relation to the sacredness of my life \u2014 on the outside looking in. That\u2019s not where I want to be, for sure. My dream, though, gets my attention, which for me is an invitation to be more aware, less intellectual about the holy, more attentive, and certainly more in awe at the ineffable workings of grace that easily go unnoticed every day.\nPosted in Depth psychology\nDecember 1, 2017 by John B. Rowe, Ph.D.\nTHE SYMBOLIC LIFE: HOW I GOT INTO DREAMWORK\nBefore beginning group dreamwork, I had a dream. I had heard Joyce Hudson speak at the Summer Dream Conference at Kanuga, and when I came home, I began to wonder how I could develop a dreamwork community in my hometown. So, here\u2019s my dream:\nI am in a bookstore in an old two-story house, and I\u2019m upstairs on the second floor. There are tables of books throughout the room, and an elderly gentleman, dressed in a grey suit and white shirt is standing behind me. I turn and ask him: \u201cDo you know where I might find a book called \u2018The Symbolic Life\u2019?\u201d He points to the table beside of me and says, \u201cSure, it\u2019s right there.\u201d I look, and there on the table is a large volume with the title, \u2018The Symbolic Life.\u201d I wake up from my dream.\nWhen I awoke, I felt as if I had received an important message, but I had never heard of a book called \u201cThe Symbolic Life.\u201d I had a few minutes before seeing my first client for the day, so I decided, \u201cWhat the heck! I\u2019ll glance through the titles on my bookshelf to see what I might find.\u201d So, there on the shelf where I keep a number of Carl Jung\u2019s volumes from his collected works, I found a book with the title, The Symbolic Life (Jung, 1939/1950, [CW 18, pra.638]). I attached no real significance to this discovery. But I was certainly curious, so I opened the book. There, in the table of contents, was a chapter entitled, \u201cThe Symbolic Life.\u201d Now I was excited. What had my dream done?\nLater that day, I took time to read this chapter. It was a presentation that Jung gave in 1939 to a group of Catholic and Protestant clergy in London. In it, Jung outlines his basic approach to the psychology of the unconscious, but it\u2019s the ending of his talk that hooked me. Jung tells these clergy that Christianity must stop looking to Jesus to save us from our sins. Instead, Jung went on, the faithful must be as courageous as Jesus was so that they might \u201ctake up their own crosses.\u201d This idea is Jung\u2019s basic view of individuation. But Jung goes on to say that the path of individuation leads straight through \u201cthe least of these\u201d Jung says, \u201cWhat if \u2018the least\u2019 of these is actually in me?\u201d What if what is most valuable and most essential to my own path of individuation is what I consciously or unconsciously reject or dismiss?\nTo say that a lightbulb went on for me is an understatement. In reading Jung\u2019s words, I knew what it meant for me to do group dreamwork. I would equip others with the tools they need in order to connect with their own shadows \u2013 the \u201cleast of these\u201d in me and in them, so that we, too, might live courageously and live with a sense of meaning and purpose, just as Jesus teaches us to do.\nSo soon after my discovery, I invited people in my church and community to a public presentation on \u201cDreams as a Spiritual Path.\u201d I put together a PowerPoint presentation, and about 50 people attended. Afterwards, 10 people signed up to study Joyce Hudson\u2019s book, Natural Spirituality (2000), and we agreed to meet every other week for two hours to learn about Jungian psychology and to practice dreamwork by using the projective method taught by Joyce Hudson.\nOver the ensuing years, enough people took the course that I offered, that I started two dreamwork groups. I later moved to Charlotte, losing touch with the dreamwork community for a while. But since then, I was invited back to Davidson to join a dreamwork group made up of some of my original group members plus some new folks. This has been an amazing journey and a wonderful coming full circle for me. I continue to be in awe at the ways in which our dreams guide us and serve us in the life and work of the soul.\nHudson, J.

Rowe, Ph.D.\nRULES FOR LIVING WELL\nBy what rules do you rule your life. Whether we know it or not, we all live by certain\nMasculine and Feminine Archetypes\nrules. Brush your teeth, pick up your clothes, eat your vegetables, don\u2019t hit your brother or sister. Our lives begin with rules, and gradually we pick up others along the way.\nThe famous couple in the picture to the right lived by certain rules. And yet, they also broke some rules that caused them a lot of suffering and loss of status, job, and who knows what else. Respected rule keepers they were, but those rules did not protect them from near-tragic results due to moral failure.\nIt would be nice if rules always protected us. But it\u2019s not so simple. Most of us who have made it past the mid-life mark have broken some cherished rules either purposefully or accidentally. It\u2019s a common experience, is it not? What we do with these experiences, what we learn, how those difficult times deepen us, has a lot to do with what rules we live by in the second half of life.\nThe Dalai Lama has \u201c18 Rules of Living.\u201d I recommend them to you wholeheartedly. There are two that I particularly love: 1) Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck. And 2) Learn the rules so you know how to break them.\nRemember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck. All of us, let\u2019s face it, want what we want. It\u2019s human nature. But how many times in my life would things have turned out so different, and possibly much worse, if I had gotten exactly what I wanted. Many times I do receive what I want, and actually much, much more. But there are times when not getting what I wanted led to opening doors through which I would never have passed if I hadn\u2019t first been greatly disappointed. Those detours eventually led to unimagined opportunities to which I now owe so much gratitude.\nLearn the rules so you know how to break them. Rules help us in many ways, and they hurt us in other ways. For instance, if you are the kind of person who believes in a conventional or traditional style of life, and that lifestyle is consistent with who you are on the inside, then all is well and good. But many try to live a conventional way of life, yet on the inside they are anything but that person. They have been TOO good at learning the rules to the point that often at midlife, they become exhausted, feeling like the rules have become a one ton backpack that weighs them down or crushes them completely at times. Their creativity and imagination are part of what is getting crushed. So their only choices are a) to become stressed out and possibly sick, b) break out of their rut in some creative way, or c) break the rules in ways that cause them an equal amount of trouble and sorrow on the other side.\nCreativity \u2014 a change of course and values \u2014 of course, is the option anyone would choose, right. It might mean surprising some people in your social circles, resigning from certain roles or activities that have lost their meaning, maybe moving to a new location, leaving a relationship, or seeking a new career path. There are a multitude of possibilities. But the Dalai Lama is right: Knowing how to break the rules is everything! So when you\u2019re ready to do it, make sure you do it with gusto, and make sure you do it with as much conscious awareness as possible. Finding a good therapist or spiritual director could also help greatly.\nCarl Jung, the great Swiss psychoanalyst who spoke to the human pursuit of a healthy soul and a healthy life, had a rule. It goes something like this: In every man is a feminine counterpart, and in every woman is a masculine counterpart. In order to be healthy and whole, each of us must do the work of balancing and integrating these forms of energy \u2014 what Jung referred to as archetypes. When we fail to do so, the result often takes the shape of sickness or trouble or malaise. When we take this challenge seriously, however, and do so with a spirit of discovery and joy, our lives become full of meaning, discovery, and juiciness. If you have never read Jung\u2019s only book intentionally written by him for the general public, you would do well to delve into his thinking. MAN AND HIS SYMBOLS is a wonderful introduction to the rules of the soul. I commend it to you highly.\nMay 2, 2017 by John B. Rowe, Ph.D.\nGreetings Dreamers!\nI am exploring the possibility of beginning a Dreamwork Group in the Charlotte area, near downtown. I would like to begin with a core group of 8-10 persons who would like to meet at least 2 times monthly, from 7-9 p.m. in the evening. Once, I hear from those who are interested, I will poll the group to see what nights might work best for the group.\nA Dreamwork Group allows participants to develop and grow in their relationships with themselves, with others, and in their relationships with God. These groups are safe, confidential, and very rewarding for all involved. It is not therapy, since it is primarily the group members doing their own individual work with the dream while the dreamer gets to listen-in and discover what meanings may be calling to them in this sacred space.\nThe Dreamwork Group uses a format for working with dreams known as \u201cProjection Method,\u201d developed by Jeremy Taylor and Bob Haden. The group would follow the same agenda at each meeting:\n7 P.M. Gathering (possibly light refreshments)\n7:15 Centering (lighting a candle and/or a reading or meditation to honor the space as a sacred container)\n-each participant shares briefly some meaningful aspect of their lives since last meeting, in order to connect with each other in a personal way.\n-each participant also shares either a dream title or the entire dream, depending on time. This way, as the group develops, there is shared sense of how the sacred soul is manifesting in our individual and group experience.\n7:45 Dreamwork\n-Those who would like to have the group work with their dream may volunteer to do so. Usually, there is ample time to\nwork with at least 2 dreams.\n8:55 Closing Ritual (a prayer or reading or a simple \u201cnamaste\u201d \u2014 according to desire of the group)\nI have been active in these kinds of dreamwork groups now since 2010, and each meeting has been a wonderful and fruitful experience in honoring the life of the soul. These experiences continue to be very meaningful in my life, so I hope to share this same kind of thing with others who may be coming into dreamwork for the first time. It\u2019s an exciting adventure!\nPlease let me know in the next week, if you or someone you know might be interested. With the summer coming, we may not begin until the Fall. But it\u2019s a good thing to plan ahead, it seems to me.\nP.S. There is NO cost for participation in this, except the purchase of a really awesome and cool dream journal, if you don\u2019t already have one.\nPosted in Depth psychology, Dreams, dreamwork, Group Dreamwork\nApril 10, 2017 by John B. Rowe, Ph.D.\nDIVORCE AS SPIRITUAL JOURNEY\nMy divorce decree arrived in the mail recently \u2013 March 27th actually (the day before my birthday!). I had included a stamped self-addressed envelope with the last small stack of documents which I had dutifully delivered to the courthouse. So the judge or her assistant merely folded the signed decree and slipped it into the envelope; and that was that.\nSterile, this divorce process was for me. Pedantic, inexpensive ($292), and cut and dried. Final. And, I would add \u2014 spiritual.\nI can say, at this point, that I am as happy and as genuinely pleased with my life as I can imagine being. So much for which I am grateful. Healthy in body, mind, soul, and bank account. Good friends to beat the band, a job as counselor and spiritual director that holds for me so much meaning, and a future that seems full of possibilities. It does, indeed, feel as if I am on an incredible journey.\nNot that the ending of my marriage wasn\u2019t devastating. I will tell no lies about that. It was my third marriage, in fact. And now, a third divorce. At times in the past year, the shame I felt about this fact of my life was nearly immobilizing. Without friends to hold me up, friends who reminded me of my goodness and worth, and friends that helped me with the work of healing, I am sure I would not be where I am today.\nI hear from time to time what seems to be a stigma about multiple marriages and divorces. I\u2019m in a meeting or at a conference or watching a TV program, and someone is referred to as having been married several times \u2014 as if this is something unacceptable. And yet, there are many of us in this category with one, two, three, or more marriages. We keep trying; but hopefully we keep learning as well.\nI owe, in part, my healing during this past year to an App on my iphone: Insight Timer. I found it the day after my wife left me, and I used it\u2019s library of Guided Meditations and it\u2019s timer for silent meditations every day for the next year. I began my morning with some meditation on acceptance, self-compassion, surrender, or forgiveness \u2013 whether I felt like it or not. This was medicine for my soul. It was literally the only thing that enabled me to go back out into the world each day. And slowly, slowly, slowly, I felt the healing take root.\nI haven\u2019t tracked the statistics yet, but I also don\u2019t feel the need to do so. I know, instinctively, that there are many of us who suffer the stigma of divorce. Some of the stigma, of course, is of our own making. But I know this. We are all trying to do the best we know in order to have healthy relationships. Certainly, if we knew more, had better insight, more understanding, more skill\u2026, more of everything, we\u2019d be better at this notion of marital equality, romance, and respect. I\u2019m still learning, and I\u2019m still growing, and I will continue to do so, I pray, as long as God gives me life and breath, and yes, love.",

        "raw_content": "While I can't say \"I'm bored\" has become my mantra here in NYC, I've definitely fallen into a pattern of sameness, and I've been chafing under these constraints I've inadvertently built.\nLet me explain. I came here for college, where I created a grueling practice routine, which I then carried into everyday life after graduating. EVERYTHING was focused around my art and becoming a better performer/dancer/singer/etc. Dance classes, vocal coachings, individual work time on songs and monologues, for three+ years. It became routine, and after such a long time, mundane. I'd get down on myself for not taking a dance class because I saw it as a failure in my career. These past few months have been a cycle of \"failure\" and self-blame and -loathing. Not fun.\nI think subconsciously that's why my word for the year is New. I knew I needed something (or someTHINGS) New to shake me up and realized I only have one lifetime - make the most of it. It helped falling into a terrific new job where I get to meet a whole pool of new people, learn new and useful skills, and be constantly inspired.\nEver since moving to NYC, I've been interested in learning aerial silks. I'd talked myself out of taking a class by knocking my body. I've always seen myself as a sickly sort (Victorian Frail, anyone?), and am constantly let down by my body's limitations, or MY perceived limitations of what my body can do. I'm not sure what's changed about my thinking in recent weeks, but I found myself questioning, \"Why not? You're already a better dancer than you ever thought you could be, why stop now? If you don't try, you'll never find out if your body really CAN do it or not.\" And a little voice inside was finally heard to be whispering incessantly, \"You're stronger than you think.\"\nI realized if I didn't grab hold and do it NOW, I never would.\nSo, dear readers, I took my first aerial silks and rope class - and I LOVED IT! Yeah, I wasn't a prodigy, but I also wasn't a disaster. I like being challenged. Activities need to be hard enough that I must stretch myself to grow in them, but easy enough that I can see it's a worthwhile venture - it's not something I'd fail at after giving it my all.\nThe teacher started class by saying she'd love to hear any aerial \"resolutions\" for this year. I joking said, \"To be able to climb to the top!\" She was kind and assured me we'd get there in a month. Dear readers, I got there about 20 minutes later.\nI had such a blast, and what a workout! I needed a new outlet for my body since I've lost steam for dance at the moment, and my ankle isn't strong enough to go back to Muay Thai yet. It's so EXCITING to do something you never thought you'd be able to do.\nI guess what I'm saying is - go for it! TRY. You'll never KNOW unless you give it a whirl.\nOne day, my friends. Until then, I'm enjoying my gnarly bruises\nWOW - that's an incredibly inspiring way to beat boredom!! I'm so glad you \"realized I only have one lifetime - make the most of it\" What a great understanding that removes preconceived limitations. Have a blast!!",

        "raw_content": "A Photoshoot with Rachel & Company\nI recently paid a visit to my friend, Rachel Rosenthal, and her super sweet 7-year-old twin daughters, Ellie and Marin, at their home in Bethesda, Maryland. The purpose of the session was two-fold: to update the family\u2019s photos as well as to create some lifestyle photos that could help represent her growing professional organizing business, Rachel & Company.\nRachel and I first met briefly several years ago in a networking group for women entrepreneurs and our paths crossed again more recently when we both became members of another organization, Her Corner. Her Corner is a community for women business owners looking to collaborate with others to help grow their businesses. About a year ago, we ended up in a smaller peer group together within the organization where we\u2019ve gotten to know each better during our bi-monthly meetings.\nRecently Rachel\u2019s business has been featured in various media outlets such as the Washington Post, and Better Homes and Gardens. She was in need of updated images she could distribute for publication as well as for her own marketing collateral showing her as a mom and as a professional, with and without her daughters at her side. I\u2019m pleased Rachel came to me for help to create high-caliber, professional photographs that could flawlessly represent her brand.\nTo give Rachel\u2019s portraits versatility, we worked our way through a number of different scenarios, outfit changes, and settings throughout her home. Her girls, Ellie and Marin, couldn\u2019t have been in better form \u2013 they were naturals in front of the camera, whether embracing mom or each other. As for Rachel, she easily conveyed the cool confidence of a seasoned business owner.\nI\u2019m excited to see how Rachel will work these newly-polished images into her business, website, and beyond. And I can\u2019t wait to see the photo artwork that she\u2019ll incorporate into her own lovely home.",

The American actress garnered fame in her thirties following her appearance in the Netflix series titled Sense8 in 2015. Jamie played the role of Nomi Marks, a transgender female political blogger, and hacker in the series which was also directed by a transgender filmmaker. Clayton has featured in other movies including the award-winning comedy television series titled Dirty Work and the American sitcom Are We There Yet?\nApart from movies, Jamie is also a model as well as a social media sensation having millions of followers on social media platforms such as Instagram and Twitter. She has appeared on the VH1 first makeover show titled TRANSform Me as a makeup artist.\nLearn more about Jamie Clayton, find out if she is a transgender and what she looks like as a boy, as well as, other interesting facts about the amazing actress below.\nJamie Clayton Brief Biography\nThe star actress Jamie Clayton was born in San Diego, California on January 15, 1978. She is the daughter of a criminal defense attorney Howard Clayton and his wife Shelley, who is an event planner. She holds American nationality and belongs to white ethnicity. There is no information online regarding Jamie\u2019s childhood life and educational background. It is already known that Clayton spent her childhood days along with her parents and sister Toni in San Diego. When she was nineteen, she relocated to New York City to pursue a career as a makeup artist.\nWhile in New York, Jamie starred as a makeup artist on the VH1 television makeover show titled TRANSform Me in 2010. Her outstanding role made way for the amazing actress to be listed among the Out 100 by the LGBT fashion and entertainment magazine called Out Magazine in 2011. Following her undeniable passion for acting, Clayton ventured into acting making her first film appearance in the 2011 series titled Hung. Clayton portrayed the recurring role of Kyla in the third season of the HBO series and the following year, she played the role of Michelle Darnell in the award-winning series titled Dirty Work. Later in the same year, she appeared in an episode of the sitcom titled Are We There Yet? She also starred as Nadya in an episode of the series Hustling and Niamh in the 2014 series titled Scisssr.\nJamie Clayton got her breakthrough in 2015 following her role in the Netflix series titled Sense8. The amazing actress played the role of Nomi Marks who is a San Francisco transgender political blogger and hacker. The movie was directed by a transgender filmmaker Lana Wachowski and she starred alongside Tina Diesel, Valeria Bilello, and Daryl Hannah.\nFurthermore, Clayton made her first big screen appearance in the 2016 psychological horror film titled The Neon Demon alongside Christina Hendrick, Keanu Reeves, Elle Fanning and Jena Malone.

Clayton portrayed the role of Edda in the thriller The Snowman as well as Mass Effect: Andromeda and The Chain in 2017.\nIs Jamie Clayton Transgender?\nIf you are wondering if the amazing actress is a transgender or not, well, the answer is yes. Unlike many other top transgender celebrities including Caitlyn Jenner; Jamie Clayton is also proud of who she is. Alongside the transgender filmmaker Lana Wachowski, Clayton saw her role in the Netflix series titled Sense 8 as an avenue to show the world who she really is. She has been an advocate and supporter of the LGBT community; inspiring the transgender, gay and lesbians who aren\u2019t proud of who they are. In addition to that, Clayton is seen as an icon in the LGBT community. She uses any available opportunity to pledge support to the community. Jamie has continued to be in the spotlight and has been playing brilliant roles in different thriller movies.\nWhat was she as a Boy before?\nYoung Jamie and Jamie after the procedure\nA glance at the stunning actress Jamie Clayton, you\u2019d hardly believe she was a boy at some point in her life. Before she garnered fame, Clayton went for several auditions for transgender roles; but each time she would be turned down because she doesn\u2019t really look it. She attended acting classes for gay actors which contributed to her success in the American film industry today.\nClayton grew up as a boy before she transitioned fully into a woman. Her transition occurred in 2003 during her family\u2019s vacation outside Tuscon; there she had a compilation surgery. The surgery which lasted for six hours was carried out by the renowned Dr. Toby Meltzer and it\u2019s worth $16,000. Ever since her transition, Jamie has continued to be a spokesperson for many other people; especially those who don\u2019t have the courage to open up about their sexual orientation.",

        "title": "Out With The Old | Kathy's Retirement Blog",
        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: Out With The Old\nDon\u2019t Trust Anyone Over Thirty\nI wrote this post, then I received an email from AARP with a link saying, \u201cLet\u2019s Stop Fighting Age and Start Fighting Ageism #DisruptAging\u201d (http://www.aarp.org) . Wow! It\u2019s nice to know I\u2019m on the leading edge but AARP put a much finer point on it. I invite you to read my take on ageism and visit their site as well.\nSomewhere around age twelve or thirteen, the saying, \u201cdon\u2019t trust anyone over 30\u201d entered my consciousness as my world, with The Beatles sound track playing in the background, erupted into a free speech, civil rights driven, bra burning disdain for the older, established members of the population. While I only watched from afar as the counterculture unfolded on the nightly news, still it\u2019s no wonder I\u2019m a bit of a cynic about the attitude toward aging today. Baby boomers created this youth culture. It is up to us to change the attitude.\nIt was on my twenty-fifth birthday when a much younger nephew quipped, \u201cWow! You\u2019re a quarter of a century old!\u201d While that gave me reason to stop and think about my aging, when thirty did finally appear on my calendar, I sailed through without giving it a thought. I was riding high at the time, successful, respected. Then forty arrived with a neighbor giving me a pot of dead flowers and an \u201cover-the-hill\u201d card. Even so, I still wasn\u2019t feeling as if I was over-the-hill, washed up or any of the other negatives attached to aging.\nNearly another quarter of a century has passed. Now, I do notice _ ageism exists and is sometimes directed toward me. Even the medical profession tells me how I\u2019m in really good health and shape \u201cfor your age.\u201d In our youth driven culture my silver hair receives lots of strange looks. There was the bank manager who told me I needed to be quiet while she asked the questions. She couldn\u2019t believe I didn\u2019t have my account number with me. As she treated me like a naughty child, she stared at the top of my head instead of my eyes. Did she think my gray hair equated someone who should be carrying a checkbook instead of a debit card? Did she really think I could be treated without courtesy and respect?\nWondering if ageism really is entrenched in our society, I began researching and reading. Psychologist Becca Levy, PhD, assistant professor of public health at Yale University did a study, which caught my attention. In her study of people over 50, she found those with more positive self-perceptions of aging lived 7.5 years longer than those with negative self-perceptions. Her conclusions point out that negative stereotyping of aging members of our population shorten lives!\nWe don\u2019t tolerate racism or sexism in our society but we tolerate ageism. Everyone, at least everyone who is lucky, will be aged someday. It seems like only yesterday that Chet Huntley or David Brinkley announced in my parents\u2019 living room the idea of \u201cdon\u2019t trust anyone over 30.\u201d Yet, here I am fifty plus years later, way over thirty and experiencing this gnawing feeling of being discriminated against because of my age. Because of the sheer number of baby boomers, ageism may become the civil rights issue of the coming years.\nIn that vein and for the record, let me say I am tired of being told I look good for my age. I\u2019m tired of being told I look good for someone with gray hair. I\u2019m tired of being told my addition of pink or blue hair chalk is not age appropriate. Ditto for my leggings, crazy socks, reptile print top and animal print flats. I\u2019m tired of being told I\u2019m aging gracefully. I\u2019m tired of being told I am tech savvy for my age. I\u2019m tired of being told my being tech savvy makes me like \u201cthe young people.\u201d I\u2019m tired of being asked if I\u2019m sure of what I recall about a situation. I\u2019m tired of being called \u201choney\u201d, \u201cdear\u201d, \u201csweetheart\u201d and \u201cdarling\u201d. I don\u2019t know what happened to my real name or even \u201cma\u2019am\u201d but since I turned 60 and stopped coloring my hair, it seems to have vanished into endearments from complete strangers at the stores, banks and wherever.\nAs AARP says, \u201cEnough.\u201d Yes, I am tech savvy just like the majority of people over 50. I\u2019m also creative, physically active, mentally and emotionally engaged and my memory still works quite well, thank you very much. Despite my introduction into the \u201cdon\u2019t trust anyone over 30\u201d mantra of the 1960s, I also have a very positive view of aging. I feel like I am at the height of my abilities. After a shaky start to retirement, I\u2019ve found my niche. I\u2019m having the best time of my life, feeling more empowered, more confident, more inspired and wiser than I\u2019ve ever felt. I have choices beyond what our culture traditionally dishes out to aging people. The last thing I need are naysayers raining on my parade.\nNow, what can we do to change the overall view of aging? We can change it by adopting a positive view of our aging experience. We can educate by not tolerating negative stereotyping _ ageism. After gathering my identification and walking out on the bank manager, I later told her supervisor, my treatment was inappropriate and won\u2019t be tolerated. Fortunately for my bank it was an aberration so I\u2019m still a customer.\nSimilarly, I told the last thirty something store manager who called me \u201cdear\u201d that the only man with my permission to use endearments instead of my name is my husband. The manager\u2019s bug-eyed, surprised stare and apology tells me he won\u2019t be calling any woman, young or old, \u201cdear\u201d in the near future.\nI\u2019ve spoken to plenty of people my age or older with similar experiences who refuse to say anything about ageism. Along with complaining to me, I\u2019ve heard all the excuses for why they don\u2019t complain where it matters, from they don\u2019t want to make a fuss to it won\u2019t do any good to complain. If we are to end ageism, making a fuss is one of the things it will take to do so. Speaking out is what it will take just like it did in the 1960s. We have the numbers to do some good, to change the stereotypes. Educating people is key to achieving a change and the educating starts with us. #DisruptAging\nBy Kathy Merlino \u0095 Posted in Transitions\t\u0095 Tagged AARP #Disrupt Aging, Ageism, Aging Positively, Change, choices in retirement, Out With The Old",

        "title": "L&S Considerations on the Use of Teaching Materials Authored by Instructors",
        "raw_content": "Topics Map > College of Letters and Science > Academic & Curricular Administration > Other Curricular Matters\nL&S Considerations on the Use of Teaching Materials Authored by Instructors\nThis document offers guidance to departments and instructors to address - or anticipate - when questions raised regarding whether it is proper for instructors to assign self-authored texts to their students.\nOccasionally, questions are raised regarding whether it is proper for instructors to assign self-authored texts to their students. This matter has attracted considerable discussion within higher education, to the extent that the American Association of University Professors has issued a statement on the topic:\nThe American Association of University Professors has adopted a statement \"\u201cOn Professors Assigning Their Own Works to Students.\" \u201dThat statement reads, in full:\nProfessors have long assigned to their students works of which they were the author. The practice ranges from assigning commercially published textbooks they have written to having students buy a volume they have written and published or course packs made up of their own materials they have photocopied. Not only individual professors, but also academic departments and programs, sometimes prepare instructional materials, such as laboratory manuals, that are sold to students. Some professors place their works on electronic reserve, making them freely available to students.\nNone of these practices is by itself cause for concern. The right of individual professors to select their own instructional materials, a right protected under principles of academic freedom, should be limited only by such considerations as quality, cost, availability, and the need for coordination with other instructors or courses. Professors should assign readings that best meet the instructional goals of their courses, and they may well conclude that what they themselves have written on a subject best realizes that purpose. In some cases, indeed, students enroll in courses because of what they know about the professor from his or her writings, and because they hope to engage in discussion with the professor about those writings in the classroom. Because professors are encouraged to publish the results of their research, they should certainly be free to require their own students to read what they have written.\nAt the same time, however, students in a classroom can be a captive audience if they must purchase an assigned text that is not available either on library reserve or on a restricted Web site. Because professors sometimes realize profits from sales to their students (although, more often than not, the profits are trivial or nonexistent), professors may seem to be inappropriately enriching themselves at the expense of their students. To guard against this possibility, some colleges and universities have adopted policies meant to regulate the assignment of a professor's own works. NOTE #1\nAt Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University , materials written by faculty members and intended for purchase by students may not be assigned unless their use is first approved by the appropriate departmental, collegiate, and university-level committees. Faculty members at the University of Minnesota cannot \"personally profit from the assignment of materials\" to students without authorization of the department chair. At Southern Utah University, a department chair and dean must approve the assignment of faculty-authored materials. Approval by a faculty committee is required at Cleveland State University . Faculty at North Dakota State University and the University of North Texas can assign their own works but are cautioned against retaining profits earned from sales to their students unless, as the North Dakota policy states, \"the text has become independently accepted in the field.\"\nA variant of these policies requires professors to choose between contributing to a scholarship or library fund whatever profits are realized from the sale of materials to their own students, or having the materials reviewed by a department committee or chair. Another variant, perhaps unique, is the policy of the Department of Neurology at Case Western Reserve University . Students in the residency program are given faculty-authored textbooks free of charge.\nLearned societies and professional organizations have likewise adopted policies to prevent professors from taking advantage of their students. The American Political Science Association, in its code of professional ethics, states that \"teachers have an ethical obligation to choose materials for student use without respect to personal or collective gain.\" The American Sociological Association takes the same position: \"sociologists make decisions concerning textbooks, course content, course requirements, and grading solely on the basis of educational criteria without regard to financial or other incentives.\" The AAUP, in its Statement on Professional Ethics [http://www.aaup.org/statements/Redbook/Rbethics.htm], has also addressed this matter, albeit indirectly. The statement calls upon faculty members to \"avoid any exploitation\" of students, from which it follows that professors should not take advantage of students by the authority inherent in the instructional role. NOTE #2\nNone of these policies bars faculty members from assigning their own works to students. Rather, the policies seek to ensure that course-assignment decisions are not compromised by even the appearance of impropriety. In the implementation of these policies, however, it is equally necessary to ensure that procedures followed by colleges and universities to protect students do not impair the freedom of faculty members or their flexibility of choice in deciding what materials to assign their students. Professors, individually and collectively, have the primary responsibility for the teaching done at their institutions. Accordingly, their voice on matters having to do with the selection of course materials should be determinative.\nState conflict-of-interest laws that bar state employees from acting officially on matters in which they have a financial stake may also be relevant for professors at state institutions.\nPolicy and Documents and Reports, 9th ed. ( Washington , D.C. : AAUP, 2001), 133-34.\nFrom http://www.aaup.org/AAUP/comm/rep/owntexts.htm (accessed August 18, 2008)\nIt is our perspective that among the many advantages to students who attend UW-Madison is that they learn from scholars who teach: the people who create, integrate, and apply new knowledge also share that knowledge\u2014often immediately\u2014with students. And, in turn, UW-Madison instructors learn from students in their classrooms how best to present new knowledge to students. This dynamic interaction between research and teaching is one reason that among the many publications of UW-Madison authors are found an array of textbooks and teaching materials, which not only serve UW-Madison students, but which also extend the university\u2019s reach to students beyond the boundaries of UW-Madison classrooms, and well beyond the boundaries of the state.\nInstructors would not invest the time, attention, and effort to create instructional materials if they believed they could not improve upon works already in existence. Furthermore, some of the materials produced by faculty and staff of UW-Madison may well be the only comprehensive materials available in a particular field. While these works are surely produced as a result of an instructor's dedication, it is also reasonable for these authors to expect compensation for their efforts.\nAn apparent conflict of interest may be present when textbooks and other educational materials produced by an instructor are required for a class that instructor teaches, and where the sale of such materials produces financial gain for the instructor. The instructor and the department are therefore encouraged to consider the following:\nIt is not in the best interest of students to prohibit instructors from assigning textbooks they have written, given that such materials may be the best materials available.\nAs with other course-level academic issues (e.g., establishing student learning goals, determining course content and structure, identifying individual course contributions to the department\u2019s curriculum), selection of instructional materials are properly determined by the instructor and department sponsoring the course.\nInstructors can employ a number of strategies to mitigate the apparent conflict of interest when they assign materials from which they may receive financial gain:\nConfer with the department (e.g., curriculum committee or similar body) to establish that these materials are, indeed, the best (if not only) materials available to students.\nAccommodate students who choose not to purchase the materials by placing copies on reserve in the library or in the Electronic Reserve system. (Information about the course reserve system can be found online at http://www.library.wisc.edu/reserves/#faculty.)\nAvoid personal financial gain by donating royalties (e.g, to the UW Foundation or to another charitable organization). Some instructors have been known simply to reimburse students who provide proof of purchase.\n4. Disclose this issue (and efforts to address it) to students.\nGiven the variety of situations under which instructional materials are created, published, and ultimately assigned, one or more of the above strategies may be appropriate and may be pursued at the individual's discretion.\nWhen in doubt, instructors and departments should feel free to consult their associate dean.\ntextbooks \"conflict of interest\" AAUP Suggest keywords",

        "raw_content": "German Developments\nResearch Missiles\nHow Missiles and Rockets Are Classified\nWinged and Wingless Missiles\nHow Missiles Are Guided\nLaunching Satellites into Orbit\nFrank Trevino/U.S. Department of Defense\nWorld War II brought, along with radar and atomic energy, an almost entirely new family of weapons collectively called guided missiles. It is jokingly said that these missiles have upset not only the art of warfare but even the time-honored sequence of orders. For guns the orders are: \u201cReady! Aim! Fire!\u201d\u2014for missiles: \u201cReady! Fire! Aim!\u201d This is not quite true, however, for even guided missiles are aimed before firing; but one of their distinguishing characteristics is that the firing crew can continue to aim after firing.\nA missile is not fired from a gun but is \u201cfired\u201d only in the sense of being ignited, after which it goes on its own way under its own propulsion system. Only a weapon which has both these characteristics is a guided missile. Bombardment rockets, for example, though they proceed under their own power, are not guided missiles because their path (trajectory) cannot be controlled after firing.\nExperimentation with naval torpedoes began more than a century ago and many types were created in the latter part of the 19th century. Some of these were electrically propelled, both by means of built-in batteries and through trailing wires. Other models were operated on compressed air which was supplied through trailing hoses.\nOne early type of torpedo held two reels of piano wire which were geared to two propellers. A shore-based steam engine pulled the wires, and the harder the engine pulled the faster the torpedo moved away from the shore. All these naval torpedoes were meant for harbor defense from shore installations; however, none ever saw service. Only the Whitehead torpedo survived and it was self-powered but unguided. Efforts to produce a guided torpedo were fruitless.\nThe first attempts to create an airborne counterpart of the naval torpedo took place in the United States during World War I. A pilotless plane was to be guided to a target and crashed into it in a power dive, exploding its charge. In 1916\u201317 a prototype called the Hewitt-Sperry Automatic Airplane made a number of short test flights proving that the idea was sound. In November 1917 Army representatives witnessed one of these flights and started a similar aerial torpedo, or flying bomb, project led by Lieut. Col. Bion J. Arnold for the Air Service and Charles Kettering for industry. The latter was assisted by Orville Wright and C.H. Wills of the Ford Motor Company. Various companies working together produced 20 complete pilotless aircraft (called Bugs), and a successful test flight was made Oct. 4, 1918. Since World War I ended five weeks later all projects were discontinued except for some experiments with Bugs. This project was dropped in 1925.\nThe Navy\u2019s Bureau of Ordnance decided to follow up one aspect of the over-all problem of the aerial torpedo and to develop a radio-controlled plane. An N-9 trainer seaplane was used as the basic \u201cvehicle\u201d and rebuilt with stabilization and radio control equipment developed by the Naval Research Laboratory and by Carl Norden. A successful flight without a pilot aboard took place Sept. 15, 1924; but the plane was damaged in landing and sank. Thus ended the career of the first of the drones, as pilotless planes not used for combat are now called.\nDuring the next decade there was little missile research, but developments in electronics and progress in aviation produced results that were later applied to missiles. In 1936 the Navy began another drone program which was intended to provide realistic targets for antiaircraft gunnery practice but which directly influenced missile development. Lieutenant Commander (later Rear Adm.) D.S. Fahrney was in charge of the project. The plane used was a Stearman-Hammond JH-1, and the radio control equipment was again developed by the Naval Research Laboratory. This drone made its first successful flight on Nov. 15, 1937. The following summer such a drone was first used for target practice by the antiaircraft batteries of the USS Ranger. Commander Fahrney then suggested the development of assault drones.\nIn January 1941 work began on the conversion of a TG-2 (torpedo plane) and a BG-1 (dive bomber) into missiles. The converted and pilotless torpedo plane, \u201cflown\u201d by a pilot in a plane 10 miles (16 kilometers) away, successfully attacked a destroyer on March 23, 1942. The converted dive bomber was crashed into a raft towed by a tug in Chesapeake Bay on April 19, 1942. The controlling pilot who \u201cflew\u201d the drone by television was 11 miles (17 kilometers) distant at the time. These tests proved that assault drones were practical, and various planes were converted and used in World War II.\nSince a plane can carry a larger load in a glider than it can carry directly, the next plan was to build a glider bomb to be towed into the combat area and guided into the target just as the assault drones were guided. Several such developments were started, among them a glide bomb with a radar homing device. Called the Bat, it saw action in the Pacific. Other missiles were the BG-1 and BG-4 glide bombs, the latter television equipped, which were used in Europe. Four other missiles were developed in the United States: Little Joe, an antiaircraft missile propelled by solid fuel rockets; and three types of Gorgon, with pulse jet engine, turbojet engine, and liquid fuel rocket motor, respectively.\nIn 1930 the German army, having devoted a small amount of money and time to research on rocket weapons, became interested in liquid fuel rockets. A few years later the army and air force set up a joint research center which, because it was near the village of Peenem\u00fcnde on Usedom Island in the Baltic, was usually called the Peenem\u00fcnde Research Institute. Of the large number of different missiles developed and tested there in 1938\u201344, only two were produced and used in the last year of World War II. They are now known as V-1 and V-2. V stood for Vergeltungswaffe (vengeance weapon) because the missiles were used to retaliate for the Allied air raids on Germany. During development, however, they had different names. The V-1 was first called Fieseler 103, or Fi-103. It also had the code name Kirschkern (cherry pit). The soldiers who launched it called it Kr\u00e4he (crow). The V-2, during development and even later, was designated A-4 (A for \u201caggregate,\u201d a term used for devices consisting of a number of subassemblies).\nThe fact that a formerly lonely Baltic island was teeming with activity was not overlooked by British Intelligence. The Royal Air Force flew over almost on schedule to take photographs. One day an RAF pilot returned with a photograph of Peenem\u00fcnde which showed something like a small plane on a launching ramp. It was an early V-1. Danish fishermen confirmed the suspicion that Peenem\u00fcnde was an important military target.\nOn the night of Aug. 17, 1943, the RAF sent 300 bombers to destroy the research center. The raid destroyed some of the workshops and devastated the housing area. Work was halted for weeks. The main test stand was not hit. It was later bombed by American planes. But the great raid was too late. Both the flying bomb V-1 and the long range rocket V-2 were being produced.\nThe V-1 looked like an airplane. It had a fuselage 25.4 feet (7.7 meters) long and a wing span of 17.7 feet (5.4 meters). Its warhead held 2,200 pounds (998 kilograms) of high explosive. Behind the warhead the fuselage held two wire-bound spherical pressure tanks containing compressed air to operate the vanes. Then came the fuel tank, which held enough 80-octane gasoline for 20 minutes of flight. The aftersection of the fuselage housed an automatic pilot which held the V-1 on course and at the set altitude, usually 2,000 feet (609 meters). The propulsion unit was mounted on top of the fuselage. It was a jet engine of a type now called a pulse jet and was simple and cheap to produce; but it did not, like the turbojet, produce a steady exhaust blast. Its exhaust was intermittent, causing vibrations of the whole structure. It did not work well when at rest, for in order to operate properly it had to move at a fairly high speed. Therefore the V-1 was launched from a ramp by means of a catapult. Its usual range was 150 miles (240 kilometers) (longest observed range, 175 miles [282 kilometers]) and the flying speed about 350 miles per hour (563 kilometers per hour)\u2014slightly faster than the fighter aircraft then in use.\nThe first V-1 crossed the English Channel in June 1944. It carried a mechanism to shut off the fuel flow at a certain moment and put it into a dive that would crash it into the ground.\nOccasionally this mechanism failed to function, and the V-1, with motor silent, would go into a glide and land without exploding the warhead. Thus the Allies learned how the V-1 worked.\nAll V-1s were aimed at London, except one uncompleted group intended for Bristol. The total number fired at London was 8,070\u20141,847 were shot down by planes, 1,878 by antiaircraft guns and rockets, 232 were stopped by barrage balloons, and more than 1,000 missed the city.\nLondon was hit by 2,420 V-1s, killing 5,684 persons, wounding 17,197 badly and 23,174 slightly; 24,491 dwellings were destroyed and 52,293 made uninhabitable. Even after the launching sites were captured an occasional V-1 hit London, carried within striking range by a German plane.\nThe V-2 saw action later than the V-1 and had a longer range\u2014about 190 miles (306 kilometers). It did not need a launching ramp but was fired from a table easily carried on a truck. The rocket was almost 47 feet (14 meters) tall and had a take-off weight of slightly over 12 tons. The warhead, filled with the high explosive amatol, weighed 1 ton; the rocket structure itself weighed 3 tons; and the fuel, consisting of grain alcohol (including 25 percent water) and liquid oxygen, weighed 8 tons.\nThe V-2\u2019s nose was the warhead. The compartment housing the controlling instruments came next. The alcohol tank followed, and then the glass wool insulated oxygen tank, with the alcohol pipe leading downward through its center. Below the oxygen tank was what the British call the \u201cpower bay,\u201d housing the propulsion equipment. It held the rocket motor and equipment for forcing the two liquids into it. This was done by two centrifugal pumps driven by a steam turbine receiving its heat from a steam generator\u2014essentially a pressure container into which potassium permanganate and high strength hydrogen peroxide (85 percent hydrogen peroxide and 15 percent water) were sprayed. Reacting to the permanganate, the peroxide (H2O2) decomposed into water and free oxygen, releasing so much heat that not only the water formed by the decomposition but also the water present as an \u201cimpurity\u201d were turned into steam.\nThe alcohol was not forced directly into the motor but entered a cooling jacket first, for no metal could stand the heat developed in a rocket motor. Actually there is no need for such a metal. Ordinary mild steel works well when cooled; and in a rocket motor the fuel does the cooling.\nFor warfare the V-2s were grouped in \u201cbatteries\u201d making a road convoy. Each of three special vehicles (Meiler-waggons) carried a rocket, one truck carried alcohol, and another oxygen. There were also trucks for the firing crews, and staff cars; so that one battery consisted of about ten vehicles. On reaching the firing site the tables were placed on the ground. These were circular steel rings, about 5 feet (1.5 meters) from the ground. Each ring rested horizontally on four adjustable legs. A rocket stood vertically on each table. A steel pyramid between the legs of the table, hollow and filled with water, was used to part the rocket\u2019s blast. It was called the blast deflector. The rockets were then placed on the tables and fueled. An ordinary fireworks pin wheel was inserted into the exhaust nozzle as the ignition device.\nWith the order \u201cFire!\u201d the pin wheel was electrically ignited. Then the fuel valves were opened so that the fuel could flow from the tanks into the motor. This was called the preliminary stage and served to check the proper burning of the motor. The thrust generated during this stage was about 7 tons, not sufficient to lift the 12-ton rocket. When the firing officer saw that the motor burned properly he switched the fuel pump assembly into action. Within three seconds the pumps ran at full speed, forcing the fuels into the rocket at the rate of 275 pounds (125 kilograms) per second. The thrust jumped from 7 to 27 tons and the rocket, balancing on its fiery exhaust, rose slowly into the air. In the first second, it traveled hardly its own length but accelerated steadily. Four trim tabs in the stabilizing fins and four graphite rudders in the blast itself balanced the rocket to keep it on a vertical course for several miles. Then the guiding mechanism, operating the graphite rudders, slowly tilted the rocket\u2019s nose in the direction of the target. After 52 seconds the rocket moved upward at an angle of a little more than 45 degrees, still accelerating. For another 13 or 14 seconds it continued on this tilted path under power, then the motor was shut off. At that instant the rocket was about 20 miles (32 kilometers) high, about 20 miles from its take-off point, and moving 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) per second. It then traveled like an artillery projectile, on momentum only, to crash into the target area 340 seconds after take-off. Since it moved about 21/2 times as fast as sound, its coming could not be heard; but occasionally people near the impact point saw one.\nThe first V-2 took off from Peenem\u00fcnde early in 1942. The first one aimed at London was fired from The Netherlands on Sept. 8, 1944. The bombardment ended on March 27, 1945, when the 1,115th rocket fell in Kent. The Germans had fired more than 1,400 rockets. Several hundred fell short or did not function properly. The total toll of the V-2 assault was 2,511 killed and 5,869 seriously wounded in London; and 213 killed and 598 seriously wounded elsewhere in England. Both the V-1s and V-2s were later used by the Germans on the European continent.\nGermany also developed a number of glide bomb missiles. They were generally called Henschel, or Hs, missiles after their manufacturer and were used mostly against Allied convoys. Usually these missiles had a solid fuel rocket attachment to increase their diving speed. They were all radio controlled.\nAt the end of World War II American troops captured the underground factory in the Harz Mountains where the V-2s had been manufactured. Three hundred railroad carloads of V-2 parts were shipped to the United States. Some of the German engineers who had developed the V-2 volunteered to continue rocket research in the United States.\nThe next step in the story of the big rockets was known in the United States as the \u201cV-2 program.\u201d The parts shipped from Germany made about 25 complete rockets. More than 50 others were almost completed with the exception of parts which could be manufactured. These rockets were fired from the newly established White Sands Proving Ground in New Mexico. The Army Ordnance Department trained American soldiers to handle and fire large missiles. Various scientific institutions supplied instruments to be carried by the rockets into the upper atmosphere. The operation was coordinated by a special V-2 panel of the Naval Research Laboratory.\nAfter some failures the White Sands rockets soon reached heights of more than 100 miles (160 kilometers). The record in the V-2 program was 114 miles (184 kilometers), though later a lightened V-2 climbed to 128 miles (206 kilometers). The scientific instruments were hooked up with an automatic radio transmitter, and data were recorded on the ground while the rocket was in flight. Since it was not necessary to recover the instruments, the rocket was left to crash in the desert.\nWhen cameras were carried, however, the film had to be recovered; but the rockets struck the ground with such force that nothing could stand the impact. The solution consisted in putting some 4 pounds (1.8 kilograms) of TNT under the instrument-filled warhead and exploding this charge by radio from the ground when the rocket, on the downward leg of its journey, had reached the 100,000-foot (30,480-meter) level. After the \u201cair burst,\u201d as it was termed, the warhead fell freely to the ground. The rocket, with a gaping hole in front and the heaviest remaining piece of equipment, the motor, in back between the stabilizing fins, immediately became extremely unstable. It could not fall nose down or tail down. It fluttered tumbling to the ground and often hit the desert flat. It could not be reused. The impact was comparatively gentle, however, and film in a well-protected camera was safe. On occasion some instruments were released on the way down with their own parachutes. To equip the whole rocket with a parachute was impossible. Large parachutes are too bulky to carry.\nThe V-2s, however, were not the only rockets to rise from White Sands. The first rocket to take off was an American model called the Wac Corporal. It was about 11 feet (3.4 meters) tall and reached a height of 35 miles (56 kilometers). As the supply of V-2s grew smaller other rockets were developed. One of them, the Navy\u2019s Viking, was as tall as the V-2 but slimmer and lighter. It went as high as 135 miles (217 kilometers). The Aerobee was another small rocket about the dimensions of the Wac Corporal. It was fired with a solid fuel booster.\nOn Feb. 24, 1949, a modified V-2, carrying a Wac Corporal instead of a warhead, took to the air. About 20 miles up the Wac Corporal was ignited. It lifted out of the V-2, adding its own half mile per second to the velocity it already had, thus obtaining a maximum velocity of one and a half miles per second (2.4 kilometers per second). This was enough to make it coast to a peak altitude of 250 miles (402 kilometers) into the thin layers of the upper atmosphere. This experiment proved that rockets could be separated in flight.\nThe United States Department of Defense has established a uniform designation system for guided missiles and rockets. The code is made up of letters of the alphabet and numbers. In combination, the symbols and their sequence indicate such information as the launching environment, the mission of the weapon, and its type.\nFor example, the Navy\u2019s Subroc (UUM) is launched underwater (U) against enemy submarines or other underwater targets (U) and is a guided missile (M). The Army\u2019s Honest John (MGR) is launched from a mobile platform or vehicle (M) against enemy surface or ground targets (G) and is a rocket (R). A model number and a series letter are usually added. A prefix may be used to indicate the status of the weapon: \u201cX,\u201d for instance, means \u201cexperimental.\u201d The complete designation of a weapon, then, might be XMGR-1B.\nThere are two main groups of missiles. Those in one group have wings and fly through the air, as airplanes do. These cruise missiles were first developed by the United States and the Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s. Capable of carrying either a nuclear or a conventional warhead, the cruise missile was designed to be difficult for radar to observe and to fly close to the ground while traveling at a relatively slow speed to its target.\nThree main versions of the cruise missile were being manufactured in the United States during the mid-1980s. All were single-stage, turbofan jet-propelled missiles with a cruising speed of 550 miles (885 kilometers) per hour and weighed from 2,700 to 3,900 pounds (1,225 to 1,769 kilograms) each. The air-launched cruise missile (ALCM) had a length of 20.7 feet (6.3 meters); it attained a range of 1,500 miles (2,414 kilometers). It was designed for deployment on the B-52 bomber. The Tomahawk sea-launched cruise missile (SLCM) and the Tomahawk ground-launched cruise missile (GLCM) had a length of 21 feet (6.4 meters), a diameter of 21 inches (53.3 centimeters), and a range of 1,550 miles (2,495 kilometers).\nThe Soviet Union also produced a series of sea-, air-, and ground-launched cruise missiles. It is thought that Soviet cruise missiles had a length of about 23 feet (7 meters) and a range of about 1,860 miles (2,993 kilometers); the power plant was probably a turbojet.\nU.S. Air Force/Department of Defense; photo, Bill Thompson\nWingless missiles are not supported by air. They follow ballistic trajectories, as bullets do. Since they are powered by rockets, ballistic missiles can reach higher altitudes than can missiles powered by air-breathing engines. Ballistic missiles are of three general classes. Short-range missiles can travel about 200 miles (320 kilometers); intermediate-range (IRBM), about 1,500 miles (2,414 kilometers); and intercontinental (ICBM), about 7,000 miles (11,265 kilometers).\nA guided missile is controlled throughout the time it is in motion. Many winged missiles, and some wingless ones, can be guided into contact with a moving target. As the target changes its direction, the path of the missile can be changed accordingly. A ballistic missile is also aimed at its target but is guided only during the brief powered phase of its flight.\nSurface-to-air missiles need continuous, precise guidance. There are three principal systems. One system uses two radar beams. One beam follows the target. The second beam follows the missile. The point of interception is computed, and electronic signals guide the missile to the target. A one-beam system uses a missile called a beam-rider. It travels in a radar beam pointed at the target. If the missile leaves the beam, its built-in sensing system puts it back on course.\nThe third system is called homing. The missile is fired in the general direction of the target. It carries a device that responds, for guidance, to a reflected radar beam or to the heat or noise of the target\u2019s engine. Modern cruise missiles are guided by an inertial navigation system that is updated during flight by a technique called Tercom (terrain contour matching), using contour maps stored in the system\u2019s computerized memory.\nModified missiles have been used to launch artificial satellites. The Soviet Union launched the first successful satellite in October 1957. In January 1958 the Army sent the first United States Earth satellite into orbit (see space exploration). The world\u2019s first weather satellite was orbited by the United States Navy on Feb. 17, 1959. Pioneer IV, the first United States satellite to orbit the sun, was fired on March 3, 1959. Atlas rockets were used in Project Mercury during the early 1960s to launch astronauts into orbital flights around the Earth. Titan II rockets were used in the two-man Gemini program. The three-man Apollo spaceship, designed for flights to the moon, was launched by a Saturn V rocket.\nDelmer Stater Fahrney and Willy Ley",

It comes hard, fast, and without fail from friends, family, co-workers\u2013pretty much anyone who knows you write. Many people misunderstand writing as a career choice and it can be difficult to explain that you don\u2019t have to have an agent and a string of books to your name to be a \u201creal\u201d writer.\nI know you feel like throwing a fit right now. After being asked this (and similar) questions one too many times, it\u2019s only natural. You know exactly how much time and effort you put into your writing, but it seems like no one else really notices or cares. But, listen: you\u2019re not alone. Dark thoughts plague even the best writers and it takes courage to keep pushing through them.\nWhen you\u2019re feeling low and unaccomplished, remember that writing is a process. Everyone approaches it differently. Some writers release new books every month and other spend years on their debut manuscript. Wherever you fall on the spectrum, don\u2019t beat yourself up. Work at your own pace. Readers can tell when a manuscript was rushed. You don\u2019t want that.\nGetting published is the cherry on top of the writing process. Enjoy each step of the way. Feel the words as they flow out of you. Get in deep while editing and have fun figuring out the perfect titles, illustrations and covers. Whether you\u2019ll be querying or self-publishing, allow yourself to take as much time as you need to research and make choices you\u2019re comfortable with.\nIf you rush through it all simply to prove something to everyone, you\u2019ll miss out on the joys of being a writer and the finish line will seem pretty underwhelming.\nPrevious article Is freewriting the cure to writer\u2019s block?\nNext article What to do when you have the writing blues",

        "raw_content": "Crisis in the Church \u2013 More about Taize\nAugust 2, 2007 in apologetics, apostasy, Bible, christianity, Christians, Church, discernment, faith, God, Jesus, Life, new age, prophecy, religion, spiritual growth, Spiritual Life, Spirituality, Uncategorized\nHere is a photo of a Taize service\u2026..I finally remembered that i had found information about Taize on the Lighthouse Trails Research website. Taize is a prime example of how contemplative spirituality is compromising the church. It appeals to the youth and is Buddist oriented with a Catholic flavoring.\nTaize \u2013 Another Avenue Through Which Contemplative is Entering the Church\nTaize Community is an international, ecumenical communityin France. Taize Worship is practicing the silence with icons, candles, incense and prayer stations, and is a very contemplative/Buddist oriented community attracting young people from around the world.\nAs an article on Taize worship explains:\nShort chants, repeated again and again, give it a meditative character,\u201d the brothers explain in a brief introduction printed in the paperback songbook. \u201cUsing just a few words, [the chants] express a basic reality of faith, quickly grasped by the mind. As the words are sung over many times, this reality gradually penetrates the whole being.\nWhile it is apparent that Taize is rooted in Eastern mysticism, it is equally apparent that it is being incorporated more and more into Christendom. Below are some examples of Christian ministries and schools that are introducing people to Taize worship.\nColumbia Bible College (BC, Canada)\nEastern Mennonite University (Virginia)\nSeattle Pacific University (Washington)\nRenovare (Richard Foster) \u2013 page 2\nHere is a link to the newsletter containing this article\nhttp://www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com/newsletter020507.htm\nHere is the link to my orginal article about Taize\nhttps://kimolsen.wordpress.com/2007/07/30/crisis-in-the-church-taize-what-is-it/\nHi, just surfing through on a Friday night. I really like the new look of your blog!\nThis latest info is interesting. I have to admit I know next to nothing about the Taize community in France. I only know how Taize is practiced locally, and the local Lutherans do nothing like what\u2019s pictured or described above! Maybe it has gone through some changes on its way across the Atlantic?\nI checked out the website you were talking about too. One thing I\u2019m really confused on: how do they define \u201ccontemplative\u201d? I was really surprised at some of the things and people on their list. It almost seems like any ideas or experiences that can\u2019t be defined rationally fall into the contemplative category\u2026\u2026?\nFWIW here\u2019s a sampling of my reactions to the list:\nDallas Willard \u2013 contemplative. I\u2019ve read \u201cThe Divine Conspiracy\u201d. Lots of good things to say if you take it with a grain of salt.\nAlpha Course \u2013 not contemplative. Too evangelical/charismatic to fit the description. The Alpha Course (I helped lead one this past spring) is basically a combination evangelistic outreach & church growth tool.\nJulian of Norwich \u2013 CLASSIC contemplative. Another set of writings where there\u2019s great stuff in it but take a fair number of grains of salt with you.\nTony Campolo \u2013 I don\u2019t know quite how to categorize him, but \u201ccontemplative\u201d is not the word, LOL! (I\u2019ve met the man.)\nHenri Nouwen \u2013 traditional Catholic contemplative and scholar, nothing radical about him. Agree with some of his stuff, disagree with other stuff.\n\u201cPurpose Driven\u201d stuff \u2013 not contemplative but it\u2019s just the latest Christian fad. Remember the \u201cPrayer of Jabez\u201d a few years back? Wait a couple years and it will pass. \ud83d\ude09\nWell i believe that there is hardly any difference between contemplative and meditative. Pretty much interchangeable. Contemplative spirituality is a deceptive term that will invite Christians into a practice that is really eastern mysticism.\nI don\u2019t know much about Dallas Willard, and the Alpha Course? i know about the Alpha State which is allowing yourself to fall into an altered state of consciousness, necessary for the enlightenment of the NewAge philosophies.\nUnfortunately, this widely read and often-quoted author, at the end of his life, stated in clear terms that he approached God from a universalistic view. He proclaimed:\nThat is radical enough for me.\nThe Alpha Course was started by Holy Trinity Brompton in London (an Anglican charismatic church) and has been successful worldwide in bringing people to the faith and into local churches. \u201cAlpha states\u201d are a totally different thing, thank goodness!\nI had to read Nouwen in a seminary course a couple decades ago. (Haven\u2019t read his stuff since\u2026 sorry to hear he ended up in universalism.)The professor wasn\u2019t pushing Nouwen\u2019s teachings\u2026 he was exposing us to a number of different approaches to thinking about Christian spirituality, and our job as students was to agree or disagree with the assigned readings and say why.\nAt the time I was doing a good bit of writing in apologetics (very similar to what you\u2019re working on) so I was pretty much on my guard with the stuff.\nMy biggest problem with Nouwen \u2014 and many of the other \u201ccontemplative\u201d writers \u2014 is that a steady diet of it eventually devolves into navel-gazing, or to put it another way, it\u2019s a head trip. Very easy to become self-involved and puffed up with knowledge. My professor told me later Nouwen himself admitted his greatest sin was pride.\nThat said, I still don\u2019t see a problem with contemplation as guided by the Spirit, unless we\u2019re talking about two different things, which is why I was asking for definitions. As I understand it, in the Christian world, they go something like this: meditation = to think about something deeply, to ponder. To meditate on scripture is to \u201cread, mark, and inwardly digest\u201d it. contemplation = similar to meditation but usually includes some kind of revelation from God like a dream, a prophecy, or a teaching. It\u2019s touched with a little bit of mystery, it\u2019s a little beyond the everyday in the same way that miracles are. \u201cContemplative\u201d writers are people who have experienced these kinds of things.\nIn my understanding the benefits and pitfalls are very similar to the charismatic gifts, in fact (now that the words are all on the screen) the thought occurs: Christian contemplation might be considered a form of the charismatic gifts, maybe? Which, like we said before, can be done scripturally or can be counterfeited. Neither of us is ready to say speaking in tongues is unChristian, even though neither of us does it. I don\u2019t see visions like Julian of Norwich did (!) but I can\u2019t quite write her off as a heretic either.\nSorry to be so long-winded! My hope is to encourage you rather than debate\u2026 keep on digging, and don\u2019t be afraid to look at the original source materials (that is, the Alpha course itself, or one of Nouwen\u2019s books). God protects those who serve Him, you won\u2019t be misled if you read the sources with the Holy Spirit\u2019s guidance.\nI like this definition you give\u2026.\n\u201ccontemplation = similar to meditation but usually includes some kind of revelation from God like a dream, a prophecy, or a teaching. It\u2019s touched with a little bit of mystery, it\u2019s a little beyond the everyday in the same way that miracles are. \u201cContemplative\u201d writers are people who have experienced these kinds of things.\u201d\nIt is the \u201cmethod\u201d one uses or promotes, to create their own experience that worries me. It is a step into the occult. Occult is defined as things hidden or secret. Any method used to tap into these resources is divination which is forbidden in the Bible.\nBiblically, we are to approach God by coming to Him by faith through Jesus Christ.\nPeg, i appreciate your comments and i always need encouragement. Thank you so much!!!\nAh! I think I see where you\u2019re coming from now. Does this make sense\u2026\nThe difference between Christian contemplation and dabbling in the occult is who initiates the process\u2026? In other words, if a Christian in the course of everyday prayer and/or meditation is unexpectedly touched in a special way by God, then that\u2019s from God\u2026\u2026.. BUT if a person attempts to manufacture an out-of-the-ordinary spiritual experience, or in some way make it happen, that\u2019s an attempt to force God\u2019s hand, which is a sin (divination? sorcery? maybe both?). Does that sound about right?\n(I should quickly add\u2026 contemplative Christians down through the ages have often practiced fasting, celibacy, poverty, and other disciplines to draw nearer to Christ by minimizing worldly distractions. New Agers typically misinterpret this and teach using physical disciplines to help produce spiritual revelations. Nonsense. Disciplines may help but not for the reasons New Agers think.)\nAnyway\u2026 rock on!\nPS \u2013 If you\u2019d like to take a closer look at Christian contemplative teachings, I attended a Quiet Day at my church a few months ago led by one of the leading Christian contemplative teachers. Can\u2019t remember his name offhand but he\u2019s a friend of Dallas Willard\u2019s. My notes can be found here:\nhttp://getstarted.wordpress.com/tag/main-areas/faith-chat/page/2/\n\u2026and scroll down a little past halfway.\nThere are 6 posts total \u2014 \u201cQuiet Day\u201d parts 1, 2, and 3 (notes on the talks) and \u201cMeditations\u201d 1, 2, and 3 (my responses to the lessons). Feel free to ask questions if you like!\nYes, this makes sense, although i would like to clarify something. If the Christian tries to manufacture a spiritual experience using occult methods the experience probably will be occult. No matter how beautiful it may seem.\nThat sounds about right to me too. I think it goes without saying that using occult methods is not a good idea, anytime, anywhere, period. All we need now is a definition of what \u201coccult methods\u201d are (keeping in mind sooo much of the occult is a counterfeiting of what\u2019s true and right).\nI\u2019m off for a few days to visit my folks\u2026 will catch up with you when I get back! \ud83d\ude42\nHey there, sorry to interupt your fine conversation. So far I\u2019ve just had time to read the first comment, so hope I don\u2019t repeat anything that\u2019s been said\u2026\nRegarding Tony Campolo being contemplative, did you know that he says he was born again by centering prayer, uses a mantra, and gets into that thin place? I would say that\u2019s a wee bit contemplative\u2026\nhttp://www.understandthetimes.org/commentary/c58_pf.shtml\nI think anyone who practices or promotes contemplative spirituality, whether it be the spiritual disciplines, spiritual direction, or a meditation practice that invovles being very still, breathing excercises, and finding that silent space within\u2026would be classified as a contemplative in my books.\nEven though i have Roger Oakland on my Blogroll, Understand the Times, i had not read this article. It is very good. I like this comment from Roger because it really sums up Contemplative Spirituality.\n\u201cI have searched the Scriptures! You can do the same. Centering prayer and using the name of Jesus as a \u201cmantra\u201d is just not there. In fact the idea of using a mantra (that is mindlessly repeating a word over and over again) is used by the Buddhists and the Hindus in their attempts to focus on the spiritual realm and contact higher beings that the Bible calls demons.\u201d\nSee Carla @ http://morebooksandthings.blogspot.com\nInteresting\u2026 looks like Tony\u2019s gotten into Catholic history & spirituality a bit more since the last time I heard him (about 20 years ago).\nI just read the chapter Oakland quotes, which can be found here:\nhttp://www.tonycampolo.org/doc/Letter_to_a_Young_Evangelical_28-41.pdf\nA lot of Oakland\u2019s objections are a matter of semantics IMO, plus a bit of chain-pulling on Campolo\u2019s part (he is deliberately using terms that will upset the apple cart\u2026 could easily express his ideas in other ways. He\u2019s not above goading us conservative evangelicals. \ud83d\ude09 )\nTony\u2019s positions are too liberal for my tastes and always have been, but I can understand where he\u2019s coming from and I think his liberal positions are why people don\u2019t like him. If it wasn\u2019t \u201ccentering prayer\u201d it would be something else, like his stance on homosexuality (which I totally disagree with\u2026)\nAs a former United Church of Canada pastor, I can attest to some of the kookie feminist sophia stuff happening in the denomination. It has gotten so bad that a bunch of \u201cprogressives\u201d walked out of a worship service because there \u201cwas too much Lord language\u201d. You are a pariah if you use Father language in prayer at leadership events.\nI am working on a project to help UCCers to leave for a Christian denomination. If anyone wants to help find examples of United Church of Canada heresy for my UCC Watch section, that would be appreciated.\nIn the past year many conservatives have acknowledged that the battle within the denomination has been lost to the liberals and neo-pagans. Now it is time to help the faithful leave for more faithful pastures.\nRe: James\u2019 post:\nInteresting\u2026 it seems that all the Protestant denominations are going through the exact same thing at the exact same time. Coincidence? I think not\u2026\nre: \u201ctime to help the faithful leave for more faithful pastures\u201d \u2014 it would be interesting if all the faithful exiting the various denominations end up in the same pastures\u2026!\nNic Patterson\nHello. I just came across your post and wanted to share my experiences with you. Taize is a wonderful place and there I met evangelicals as well as agnostics. There, there is real dialogue between ALL people \u2013 however most people who go there are seeking something \u2013 and in Taize they are pointed to Christ. Not everyone believes the same thing, but in the classes (which each person is required to attend) we learned strictly from the Gospels. People pray in silence because with the variety of languages spoken, it would be difficult to comprehend what was being said. Some people pray out loud there. Many people judge the brothers of Taize and their methods because they do not know. I had lunch with the leader of the community and brothers as well as several one-on-one discussions with brothers. They really have no other motive other than reconciliation.\nI wanted to clarify something else as well. There is no offering taken, nor does the community accept donations (unless you are staying in one of the dormitories \u2013 then they ask for a contribution.) They work to provide their income by selling things they make. For me to go and stay there for 2 weeks was only $150 USD \u2013 and that was their highest donation for someone from the U.S. \u2013 so $75 per week for room, board, meals, and everything else. When I was there, most songs were sung in German, English, and French \u2013 because those were the people who were there that week. They select the music based on the people who have made reservations to be there. However, the music \u2013 regardless of the language \u2013 is all scripture.\nI am a United Methodist minister and am very conservative. I have a passion for making disciples of Jesus Christ.\nThere will be the first Taize meeting in the United States since 1993 in 2012. It will be in Chicago Memorial Day Weekend. Maybe you could attend.\nMay God bless you and your ministry, Kim. May we all love the Lord our God with all our soul, mind, and strength as we love our neighbor as ourselves..\nThe purpose of the clergy is indeed to point people to faith in Jesus Christ. John the Baptist perfectly pointed people to Christ by telling them they needed to repent. Which of course means to turn away from sin and false gods, and to turn to Jesus Christ. This means a 180\u2026.and this is where discipleship comes in if one wants to make disciples. The Gospel is the good news indeed, and when people realize their sinful condition as Romans 1-3 demonstrates, they actually begin to see the need for a Savior.\nJesus told Nicodemus that one has to be born again. This is the transformation that occurs when one truly turns to Jesus and is willing to pick up a cross and die to self. Dying to our own wills and living for Jesus becomes our purpose. In John 14 Jesus says three times that love for Him is demonstrated by obedience to His commands. We will be hated by the world for our truthful testimony about Jesus according to John 15.\nIs this sounding similar to the \u201creal dialogue\u201d you said was taking place at Taize?\nShirley G. Platt\nEven the very elect will be deceived. Not good to play with fire. Let\u2019s stick to scripture.\nIt is always SAFE to stick with scripture. Jesus is our example. Where, in the scriptures, is there a record of JESUS chanting??\n\u00ab Crisis in the Church \u2013 Taize \u2013 What is it?\nEast meets West-The Early Women of Theosophy \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Posted on June 12, 2015 June 12, 2015 by Kolby Solinsky\nI don\u2019t know where that bullshit comes from. It\u2019s pretentious by being free \u2013 that statement you always hear from tourists who are desperate to be travellers, that you should \u201cPUT AWAY THE GUIDEBOOK.\u201d\nYes, the thought goes. You shouldn\u2019t be walking around a city from attraction to museum to recommended restaurant with Rick Steves or Frommer or Lonely Planet in your face. And this is correct, probably, in the same way you shouldn\u2019t be crossing the street with a phone in your face. It\u2019s rude, maybe, but it\u2019s also just plainly stupid: look where you\u2019re going, and enjoy what you\u2019re seeing.\nThat said, don\u2019t let the assholes get you down. Don\u2019t feel bad for buying a guide book, even if you can find the same shit \u2013 better shit \u2013 online. And you definitely can.\nFor me, the guidebook has never been a guide, though. The guidebook isn\u2019t really God\u2019s manual \u2013 the only way to do things, as you\u2019d hear its haters talk about it like it is. The guidebook is a travelling companion, not the Bible. It\u2019s a way of getting into or inspired for what you\u2019re about to see \u2013 you\u2019ll spend more time thinking about your trip before you go and after you get home than you will when you\u2019re on it, no doubt. Oh, you\u2019re going to Amsterdam for three nights? I\u2019ll bet you\u2019ve been planning it for longer. I\u2019ll bet you\u2019ll be remembering it for infinity. Otherwise, what\u2019s the fuckin\u2019 point in flying there?\n(The best, by the way, have catered to this obviousness. They no longer have to be the sage on the stage, as TV newsers are proud of saying about their anchors. You\u2019re no longer necessary for planning someone\u2019s trip, just like an anchor\u2019s no longer necessary to tell you what happened in the world that day. So publishers and posters like Lonely Planet and the Matador Network and whoever else you follow on Instagram and YouTube, they\u2019re selling to the audience \u2013 not the customer. That\u2019s how it is, and that\u2019s how it\u2019s gotta be from now on. Even AirBnb is getting in on the act, with their own travel diaries and vlogs through Paris and Japan and wherever they\u2019re in business.)\nHere\u2019s the truth: It\u2019s okay to love a guidebook. It\u2019s okay to buy a ton, as long as you can afford it. You don\u2019t have to find your hotel or become a slave to it, you just have to enjoy it. Would you shit on a drummer for enjoying Whiplash? Or on a journalist for enjoying Almost Famous? You won\u2019t learn how to play music or how to write from either movie, but you\u2019re to love it \u2013 not just learn from it.\nI treat my guidebooks like they\u2019re my friends. I treat them like they have power, because they do\u2026 to me, anyway.\nI bring Anthony Bourdain\u2019s Kitchen Confidential everywhere I go. I\u2019ve mixed in stuff by Bukowski. Same with Eyewitness picture-books and Lonely Planet\u2019s \u2018Best Places\u2019 for whatever year I\u2019m in. It doesn\u2019t matter if I\u2019m even going to the place the writer\u2019s writing about. Sometimes, it doesn\u2019t even matter if it\u2019s good. Like junk food and filet, it just has to go in the mouth and fill my stomach.\nMost of that anti-guidebook stuff is anti-pulp. It\u2019s anti-Starbucks. Anti-typical. Anti everything that\u2019s not anti. It\u2019s so anttii, it\u2019s Finnish.\nBut if you enjoy a good guidebook, like I do, so fuckin\u2019 what? There\u2019s really no difference between a tourist and a traveller. It\u2019s only, one\u2019s enjoying himself. The other\u2019s enjoying it for someone else.\nVIDEO: 2-Minute Tour of Prague, a Fairy Tale City (by Lonely Planet)\nVIDEO: The Top 10 Things To Do in Greece (by High on Life)\nVIDEO: Never A Strange (by Airbnb)\nTags: europe, lonely planet, travel, WritingCategories: Europe, lonely planet, Travel, writing\nOne thought on \u201cWhy Go Guidebook?\u201d",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019ve been talking a lot with my nearest and dearest about growth lately.\n\u2026about how hard it is, and how slow it is, and how disorienting it is to keep leaving behind the pieces of your experience and your self that you thought would always matter.\nGrowth is a slow walk down a very hot, very long, unpleasant corridor, in which you meet strange and wondrous creatures who challenge your most cherished ways of being at every turn.\nTo be less vague about it: last year, I deleted over HALF my e-mail list because they weren\u2019t opening my e-mails anymore. I chose to send them a few \u2018hey it seems like I\u2019m bothering you e-mails\u2019 with the option to re-engage, and then I cut \u2019em loose. (Here are the other things you may have missed in 2017, if you\u2019re curious.)\nTranslation: I have fewer subscribers right now than I did six years ago.\nSIX. YEARS. GONE.\nWhen you\u2019re growing, the reframe is important.\nI could freak out about my shrinking influence, or I could be happy that I chose to unsubscribe from the peeps who are no longer feeling me instead of clinging to the hope that someday, maybe, they\u2019d tune in and pay attention again.\nYou can focus on what\u2019s falling right the fuck apart, or you can focus on the new thing that\u2019s forming before your eyes.\nThe money I\u2019m saving from no longer paying to send e-mails to those thousands of people more than paid for my first round of breathwork training. (You can try the Receive breathwork class right here.)\nSo: YUP, I lost a bunch of folks.\nAlso: I gained the ability to pay for a new project and then some.\nBy choosing to cut the dead weight, I found the money to make something completely new and exciting happen. (And if, by comparison, you need to feel better about firing a client or deleting a few e-mails because you\u2019re reading this: AWESOME!)\nIf you\u2019re like, \u2018What is breathwork?\u2019 \u2014 it\u2019s a combination of simple breathing and all-out healing that you can do by yourself, in the comfort of your own home, using no words at all \u2014 and in my life, it\u2019s helped me stay more centered, more sane, and more willing to engage in difficult inner work than ever before. Click here to check out the Receive breathwork class!\nGrowth always involves a leaving behind.\nIt might be physical, like moving your belongings in a giant truck and leaving your old Tupperware in a pile on the lawn, but more likely the leaving behind will be more subtle.\nYou\u2019ll have to ask for waaaaaay more help. Here are 22 ways to do that.\nYou\u2019ll have to stop hiding. 29 ways to do that live here.\nYou\u2019ll have to rebel against the status quo again and again.\nYou\u2019ll have to turn up the volume on yourself, on what you want, and on your inner wisdom, even if \u2018inner wisdom\u2019 sounds cheesy and new age and YAH WHATEVER YOU KNOW WHAT I\u2019M TALKING ABOUT.\nYou\u2019ll have to ask people to buy your work \u2014 and you\u2019ll have to show your work \u2014 instead of hoping they\u2019ll notice how amazing you are and getting it on their own. Speaking of: I write books and you can buy them here.\nYou\u2019ll have to make friends with discomfort as you scoot along the long, long hallway that leads to new ways of being. Tara Leaver and I talk about this very thing in this episode of That\u2019s What She Said.)\nAnd in the end, you\u2019ll have to embrace the new self that emerges from your time in the chrysalis.\nHere\u2019s hoping you\u2019ll love what you find when you finally choose to step into the light.\nP.S.

        "raw_content": "Up And Coming Actor In \u2018Black Panther\u2019 Outed For Appearing In Gay Porn\nImagine being an up and coming actor and you land a small role in Marvel\u2019s Black Panther. No matter how tiny the role, just appearing in the movie places you in pop culture history.\nThis was the case for Atlanta-based actor Patrick Shumba Mutukwa, whose only IMDB credit is in Black Panther as a dialect coach and extra. OkayAfrica.com describes his contribution to the film as being \u201chired on the film as an extra to be one of the border tribe members, had the opportunity to contribute aspects of Zambian culture that ended up being in the film.\u201d The actor said about working on Black Panther, \u201cIt was a great opportunity being on set and getting the opportunity to contribute parts of Zambian culture.\u201d\nMutukwa is originally from Zambia and while talking about the film in his home country, images surfaced of him in a gay adult film which, according to Queerty, he \u201cstarred in when he was in his 20s\u201d (no word on his current age). He released a statement via his publicist, see below:\nRecently there was an unsavory video released of Shumba Mutukwa to the Zambian public from his 20s. He was a young man that made a choice not all may agree with however, it does not change who Mr. Mutukwa is as a man, philanthropist, or actor. Mr. Mutukwa has grown and learned from his past as we all do. Although he recognizes his errored decision he does own up to the immature behavior in his past. There is nothing more he can do but continue to use his celebrity to better the country of Zambia. He temporarily closed down his social media accounts only because he knows there are children engaged with him that he knows should not witness the video. He asks that people refrain from sharing the video on social media to look out for young eyes. Again, he was a young man himself and is not the same youthful person he was. His life is dedicated to bettering others and what he did in his past has nothing to do with what he\u2019s accomplished and will continue to accomplish. He has strong pride in Zambia and works hard to make the country and its citizens proud. That is his path and he has proven well beyond a doubt that who he is today and will be in the future. The man you\u2019ve grown to love, not the youth that makes immature decisions. For any questions or statements on this matter please contact Mr. Mutuka\u2019s publicist Larissa Long. \u201cThank you for understanding we all make mistakes but know I will continue to bring pride to Zambia. My growth continues in everything I do from errors to successes.\u201d -Shumba\nHe also wrote a poem on his Facebook page, talking about shame, silence, regret and an \u201cApology to the people hurt by my past mistakes.\u201d See below.\nClearly someone was using his past and sexual orientation as a weapon, which is unfortunate. No one should be \u201couted\u201d or \u201cexposed,\u201d and he should not be criminalized for appearing in pornography, regardless of his sexual orientation. If people truly believe in the values of Wakanda, this is a hardworking man who received a huge opportunity. He should not be shamed, nor should anyone, for their past \u2014 especially because there is nothing to be ashamed of in his case.\nBe inclusive. Be kind. Be supportive. Wakanda forever.\nUp And Coming Actor In \u2018Black Panther\u2019 Outed For Appearing In Gay Porn was originally published on newsone.com",

On Truman\u2019s last full day at home, I took a photo of him in his Happy Place, on the blue rug by the sliding glass door to the balcony, because I thought it would be a nice contrast to a similar photo I took in the first few days he lived with me.

This includes the exposure of over one hundred and forty-five million Social Security Numbers, names, dates of birth, addresses, tax IDs, and driver\u2019s licenses.\nThis number isn\u2019t definitive, as Equifax spokesperson Meredith Griffanti told CNNMoney that the original list doesn\u2019t embody the entirety of potential victims.\nThe company, having been warned of poor security before the incident took place, has since been on the decline. Many investors have sold their shares of stock, and a national class action lawsuit is being filed against the company.\nAttempting to win back their customers, the company has recently launched a service called Lock & Alert, which hypothetically locks a person\u2019s credit report from a potential identity thief. This service, however, has been plagued with negative feedback, with complaints of technical difficulties and ineffective methods at the forefront\nThe company has also offered one year of credit monitoring and theft protection to all its customers, although, Democrats have called upon interim CEO Paulino Barros to offer at least three.\nIt remains to be seen if the company can recover from such a significant setback, but one thing is for sure, more security provisions should be implemented in the future to prevent other company breaches.",

        "raw_content": "Embrace your Superwoman\nEarly in my career I was told, \u201cThe longer you\u2019re in this business the more cynical and jaded you become.\u201d But for me, in the 20 years since I first started in television news, it\u2019s become the complete opposite.\nJust a few weeks ago I nearly broke down in the middle of a newscast listening to a young woman\u2019s horrific description of watching her young husband gunned down in front of her. Just a few months ago I did break down in the middle of a newscast talking about my personal connection to a story I did on a woman reclaiming her life after random gunfire left her in a wheelchair.\nEach time I have to report about violence against a child I want to hold my two kids even closer.\nI\u2019m not afraid to show emotion. I\u2019m passionate. I\u2019m compassionate. I\u2019ve led a very challenging life. I can relate to a lot of what I have to report.\nI used to wonder why I was constantly being tested. Now I see those challenges as badges of courage and a testimony to my strength. If I communicate and connect when I deliver the news each night, I\u2019d like to think it\u2019s because I\u2019ve lived many of the stories I\u2019m reporting.\nI feel better able to connect with people and tell compelling stories because I do know what it\u2019s like to grow up without money, in a divorced home. I do know what it\u2019s like to grow up surrounded by drugs and a cycle of teen pregnancy. I do know what it\u2019s like to lose a job, collect unemployment and disability.\nI also know how to pick myself up, dust myself off, and turn obstacles into opportunities.\nIt\u2019s why I\u2019ve taken up motivational speaking. I\u2019m brutally honest about my experiences and unafraid to share them, because I find the more truthful we are with each other, the more we find we have in common.\nEach time I speak, I\u2019m overwhelmed by the response I get, mostly from women, who appreciate hearing they\u2019re not alone. We thirst for the empowerment we get from one another. We are often so busy carrying the weight of the world on our shoulders, juggling multiple personal and professional tasks, that instead of cheering at accomplishing 99 of them, we often end up berating ourselves for not accomplishing 100.\nWe\u2019ve grown up hearing about Superman, but it\u2019s about time we celebrate Superwoman! I am a super woman! It\u2019s taken me a long time to admit and embrace that.\nFor years I\u2019ve juggled a career while raising two children and staying active, both physically and in the community, stretching myself so thin I stopped giving myself credit for what I do \u2013 rather than what I don\u2019t.\nWith so many women telling me they feel the same way, I was inspired to start a group called The Sisterhood of Superwomen.

        "raw_content": "San Antonio Dog Bite LawyerCasie Mason2018-09-28T17:46:25+00:00\nAs a nation, we love dogs. What we need to remember, however, is that some dogs can be unpredictable. According to data collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are an estimated 4.5 million dog bite victims in the United States every year. Of those bitten, 1 in 5 requires medical attention.\nA dog bite can leave the victim with serious damage. Not only can you suffer severe physical injury, but you may also be left emotionally distressed and with ongoing psychological trauma. If you are left with visible scars from the incident, such as on your hands or face, it can be particularly distressing and difficult to move on.\nWhen this happens to you, you need the help of a San Antonio dog bite lawyer. We\u2019ve dealt with many dog bite cases in the past and have seen how much victims can end up suffering both physically and emotionally as a result of someone else\u2019s negligence. From the initial medical treatment to a full range of financial and non-economic damages, you can be left dealing with a great deal of stress and frustration.\nIf you have been bitten by a dog in San Antonio, you need to hire a skilled lawyer with a history of getting results for dog bite victims. A lawsuit can be a complicated and confusing process, so you want someone with experience by your side to help secure your financial future.\nRecovering the Full Damages You Are Entitled To\nDog bites need to be taken seriously. While many dog bite victims in San Antonio hesitate to pursue a lawsuit because they know the dog\u2019s owner, in most instances the owner will suffer minimal financial impact, as we typically seek compensation from their insurance company alone.\nA dog attack can leave you with serious injuries that require medical attention, and you shouldn\u2019t be the one paying for damages incurred. We help clients determine the full extent of financial losses, not just past medical expenses, but also expected damages the victim will face over their lifetime.\nThis may include things such as reconstructive surgery, psychotherapy, loss of pleasure in life, loss of earning potential, and physical therapy. Victims often fail to realize the full impact a dog bite can have on their lives, and we want to ensure they receive the maximum compensation they are entitled to.\nWhat to Do When You\u2019re Attacked By a Dog\nIf you are attacked by a dog, there are certain steps you should follow for your own safety and to help you with your case.\nSeek medical treatment straight away: Every dog bite has the potential to be dangerous, no matter how minor it may seem. Dogs carry bacteria, and if it were to enter your bloodstream, it could cause a serious infection. If possible, also take photographs of any injuries sustained.\nReport the incident: You can do so by calling the police or Animal Control. Dog bites should always be reported, but you can do this after seeking medical treatment.\nRecord names and contact information: If you can identify the owner of the dog, take down their name and contact information, as well as those of any witnesses to the incident. You should also ask the owner for the dog\u2019s veterinary history and vaccination records to help you with your treatment.\nContact a dog bite attorney: An experienced lawyer will be able to help you obtain the compensation you deserve after suffering damages from a dog attack.\nSan Antonio Dog bite injury claims are often complex, particularly in Texas. The state follows a \u201cone free bite\u201d rule, which means placing liability on the dog owner is not always a straightforward process. An experienced dog bite lawyer will thoroughly investigate the incident to determine if the owner was negligent in the handling of their pet or whether the dog has previously bitten someone.\nThere are many ways that a dog owner can he held liable for the results of a dog bite, so the evidence you collect at the time of the attack and the gathering of relevant information and documentation completed by your attorney following the incident will go a long way in helping you with your case.\nCall Our Dog Bite Lawyer For Legal Guidance\nDog bite cases are complex and challenging to prove.\nThat is why you need to hire an attorney who has experience of handling dog bite injury cases.\nTo get the skill and expertise you require for a case such as this, call Carabin Shaw. We have the experience you need to help you get the best results for your dog bite case.",

        "raw_content": "How Brett Kavanaugh Failed\nExcellent editorial by the Editorial Board of the NY Times:\nThe nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, as much as any development in the challenging era of Donald Trump, is testing America\u2019s politicians and its civic institutions. Few, so far, have met the test.\nNot Republican senators, who, after denying one president his legitimate authority to appoint a justice to the Supreme Court, are now rushing their own nominee through, uninterested in the truth, while weeping crocodile tears about other people\u2019s partisanship.\nNot Democratic members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, who tainted the process by bringing forward damaging allegations against Judge Kavanaugh only at the last minute.\nNot the F.B.I., which either of its own volition or because of constraints imposed by Republicans failed to interview many of the key witnesses who could speak to the accusations against Judge Kavanaugh.\nAnd not President Trump, to absolutely no one\u2019s surprise.\nIn this crucible of power politics, of bullying and posturing and rage, no one has been more severely tested than Judge Kavanaugh. If he believes himself innocent of sexual assault \u2014 if he is innocent of sexual assault \u2014 the test, to him, can only appear monstrous.\nYet unfair as the test might seem to the judge and his supporters, senators who want to preserve the credibility of the Supreme Court cannot now look away from the result: Judge Kavanaugh failed, decisively.\nHow? First, he gave misleading answers under oath. Judges \u2014 particularly Supreme Court justices \u2014 must have, and be seen as having, unimpeachable integrity. The knuckleheaded mistakes of a young person \u2014 drinking too much, writing offensive things in a high school yearbook \u2014 should not in themselves be bars to high office. But deliberately misleading senators about them during a confirmation process has to be. If Judge Kavanaugh will lie about small things, won\u2019t he lie about big ones as well?\nIndeed he already has: During the course of his confirmation hearings, he claimed, implausibly, that he was not aware that files he received from a Senate staff member, some labeled \u201chighly confidential\u201d or \u201cintel,\u201d had been stolen from Democratic computers.\nEven the small lies, of course, aren\u2019t so small in context, since they relate to drinking or sex and thus prop up his choir-boy-who-indulged-now-and-then defense.\nSecond, confronted with the accusations against him, Judge Kavanaugh made recourse not to reason and methodical process, but to fury and the rawest partisanship. Judges \u2014 particularly Supreme Court justices \u2014 must strive to be, and be seen as, above politics. As Judge Kavanaugh said in a 2015 speech, \u201cto be a good judge and a good umpire, it\u2019s important to have the proper demeanor.\u201d He added: \u201cTo keep our emotions in check. To be calm amidst the storm. On the bench, to put it in the vernacular, don\u2019t be a jerk.\u201d\nWise words. He wasn\u2019t able to live by them when it mattered. At last week\u2019s hearing, Judge Kavanaugh was a jerk. He spun dark visions of a Democratic conspiracy of vengeance against him. He yelled at Democratic senators, interrupted them frequently, refused to answer questions directly and, at one point, confronted Senator Amy Klobuchar, who had asked him whether he had ever blacked out from drinking.\n\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d Judge Kavanaugh sneered. \u201cHave you?\u201d This contempt came only moments after Ms. Klobuchar told Judge Kavanaugh about her father\u2019s struggles with alcoholism.\nWas Judge Kavanaugh truly out of control, in rage and pain, as he appeared, or had he calculated that a partisan attack would rally President Trump and Republican senators to his side, as it did? (We all know he was capable of a more temperate response to the accusations: He\u2019d demonstrated that just a couple of nights earlier, in his interview with Fox News.) For purposes of Senate confirmation, it shouldn\u2019t matter. Such a lack of self-control, or such open and radical partisanship, ought to be unacceptable in a judge.\nAnd indeed, on Thursday, the retired Justice John Paul Stevens, who was appointed by a Republican president, took the astonishing step of saying that Judge Kavanaugh\u2019s performance before the Judiciary Committee should disqualify him from the court. \u201cSenators should really pay attention to it,\u201d he said.\nJudges are human beings, not ideological blank slates, but the American legal system depends on their being fair and open-minded to all who come before them. Judge Kavanaugh failed to show that he can do this, or that he even would want to.\nThat\u2019s a disappointment, but maybe not a surprise to anyone who knew of his life before he joined the bench. He was a fierce Republican warrior in some of the most politically charged battles of the past two decades \u2014 including the investigation that led to President Bill Clinton\u2019s impeachment, in which he sought to expose the most intimate details of Mr. Clinton\u2019s affair with Monica Lewinsky. He also played a role in the most controversial policies of the George W. Bush administration, including the torture of detainees and warrantless wiretapping. (How much of a role we may never learn, since Senate Republicans still refuse to release more than 90 percent of the documents related to Judge Kavanaugh\u2019s work in the Bush administration.)\nWhile many of Judge Kavanaugh\u2019s defenders leapt to exonerate him of sexual assault or excused his rage-bender as understandable, virtually no one has tried to deny his rank partisanship. Yet after last week\u2019s testimony, how could any self-identified Democrat, or leftist, or sexual-assault victim, or anyone who is not identifiable as a Republican, expect to get a fair shake from a Justice Kavanaugh? If he is confirmed, that will pose a profound problem for the court.\nIt is quite a tribute to Christine Blasey Ford that she has presented the one image of dignity and calm in this howling maelstrom. Dr. Blasey testified last week that a drunken Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her at a 1982 party while they were in high school. Her testimony was credible, and the F.B.I. inquiry was too cursory to substantiate or discredit it. Judge Kavanaugh denies the accusations, and in a court of law \u2014 and, we hope, in his life as an American citizen \u2014 he is entitled to the presumption of innocence.\nHe is not, however, entitled to a seat on the Supreme Court. Republican senators . . .\nSea Cider\u2019s Witch\u2019s Broom Cider\nVery tasty indeed. Read about it. From that link:\nWitch\u2019s Broom combines the best of BC cider apples, cinnamon, orange, nutmeg and ginger. First we mill and juice our BC apples, adding champagne yeast to begin fermentation. Fermentation occurs at cool temperatures to maximize the aromatics of the cider base. Meanwhile, we create pumpkin spice bitters by soaking cinnamon, orange, nutmeg, and ginger in cider eau de vie. This eau de vie is then blended with the BC apple cider base and a precise dose of Oaken Gin from our neighbours at Victoria Spirits. The result is a spicy and spooky concoction surrounded by the nostalgic aura of fall.\nMore at the link. And, BTW, Victoria Distillers\u2019 Oaken Gin is very nice in itself. (I have a bottle of it.)\nWe\u2019ve taken our flagship Victoria Gin and allowed it to mature gracefully in oak until it is amber in colour and beautifully smooth.\nTasting Notes: Softened vanilla notes from the oak, a full and buttery caramel sweetness.\nAccolades: Double Gold, San Francisco World Spirits Competition, 2016\nFWIW, Victoria Gin is one of the best gins I\u2019ve ever tasted.\nDishing up lies while proclaiming the love of facts, Trump and Sarah Sanders gaslight America\nMargaret Sullivan writes in the Washington Post:\nPresident Trump\u2019s assault on truth \u2014 and would-be truthtellers \u2014 has hit a new low.\nIt may not seem possible, considering that this is a president who has misled or lied to the public thousands of times.\nBut consider what happened in a White House news briefing Wednesday afternoon. Then consider this week\u2019s rushed and restricted FBI investigationof Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh. And, finally, consider the administration\u2019s response to the New York Times\u2019s groundbreaking investigation of Trump family finances that was published this week.\nThere can be no doubt: We\u2019re in a whole new phase of the Orwellian nightmare in which black is called white, and you\u2019d better not dare object to that.\nIn White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders\u2019s briefing Wednesday, she blatantly lied in describing her boss\u2019s ridicule, at a rally the night before, of Christine Blasey Ford. (Imagine the volume of lies we\u2019d be subjected to if these \u201cdaily\u201d briefings happened more frequently than once every few weeks.)\nAnyone who saw Trump\u2019s performance could observe that he was cruelly mocking the California professor who has accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were in high school \u2014 all to the delight of his laughing and cheering crowd.\nMichael Bromwich, one of Ford\u2019s attorneys, aptly described what Trump did as \u201cvicious, vile and soulless.\u201d\nBut Sanders countered reporters\u2019 repeated questions about it by stating that the president was merely reciting the facts of the case. She ignored the reality that the supposed facts he gave (for example, that Kavanaugh\u2019s accuser didn\u2019t know whether the alleged assault happened upstairs or downstairs) contradicted what Ford had said last week to a global audience under oath.\nAnd \u2014 this was rich \u2014 Sanders offered the idea that facts, not emotion, should decide whether Kavanaugh should be confirmed.\n\u201cA very contemptuous, evasive and unhelpful performance even by Sanders standards,\u201d tweeted Daniel Dale, Washington correspondent for the Toronto Star and one of the straightest shooters among those who cover the White House.\nThen \u2014 perhaps worse still \u2014 there\u2019s the extremely restricted FBI investigation that, according to new reporting in the New Yorker and elsewhere, did not include the testimony of knowledgeable people who wanted to cast light on the allegations against Kavanaugh.\nSanders spouted the GOP line that the White House had given the FBI free rein.\nBut as The Washington Post reported: \u201cEven before the investigation ended, several people who said they had information that could be useful said they ended up mired in bureaucracy when they tried to get in touch with the FBI.\u201d\nAnd the bureau was even reportedly restricted from exploring whether Kavanaugh had lied under oath about his alcohol use.\nThe New Yorker\u2019s Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer wrote that potential witnesses \u201chave been resorting to sending statements, unsolicited, to the Bureau and to senators, in hopes that they would be seen before the inquiry concluded.\u201d\nThe fact that the report was completed well ahead of the one-week deadline adds to the undeniable conclusion that this was far less a search for truth in a complex and perhaps unknowable situation, and much more an old-fashioned whitewash.\nYet we\u2019re supposed to believe that any questioning of this amounts to \u201cmoving the goal posts.\u201d\nThat\u2019s classic gaslighting, which longtime Trump observer (and \u201cArt of the Deal\u201d ghostwriter) Tony Schwartz once described as \u201ca blend of lying, denial, insistence and intimidation designed to fuel uncertainty and doubt in others about what\u2019s actually true.\u201d\nThe gaslighting extended, too, to Trump\u2019s reaction to a meticulously reported and far-reaching New York Times investigation of Trump\u2019s crooked family finances.\nThe report was \u2014 according to Trump, his lawyer and Sanders \u2014 completely false and defamatory. They haven\u2019t addressed the specifics, except to say that a lawsuit against the Times may be forthcoming.\nAdd that to the list of things that are best not to believe. (My colleague Paul Farhi wrote about how often Trump threatens to sue, and how little tends to come of those threats.)\nNow add in . . .\nPosted in Congress, GOP, Government, Law Enforcement, Media, Trump administration\nHere\u2019s a list of people the FBI did NOT interview. Okay with this, Flake and Collins?\nThe fact is that the GOP is utterly broken as a political party in functioning democracy. It has become very like a band of Soviet apparatchiks, each Republican in Congress closely watched by (and closely watching) the others, each afraid to step out of line. In the Senate Mitch McConnell calls the shots, and allows a few Senators to mouth off so long as they vote as directed\u2014and they do. McCain\u2019s vote saving the Affordable Care Act is likely to be the last sign of independence from any Republican member of Congress for years.\nGreg Sargent writes in the Washington Post:\nThe White House and Republicans have announced that the FBI\u2019s reopened background check investigation into new accusations against Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh has been delivered to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Individual senators will now be able to review summaries of the FBI\u2019s interviews under weirdly restrictive conditions, and it remains unclear whether the findings will ever be publicly released.\nYou\u2019ll be shocked to hear that the White House has already pronounced the FBI report entirely exonerating for Kavanaugh, claiming that it is now \u201cfully confident\u201d Kavanaugh will be confirmed.\nBut a lot of new reporting has now emerged that starkly illustrates just how much about the new allegations was not investigated by the FBI. It\u2019s important to note that this probably was not a failing on the FBI\u2019s part but rather was the result of restrictions the White House placed on the probe, a process that itself remains shrouded in disingenuous rhetorical games.\nThe New York Times reports that as part of the inquiry, the FBI interviewed nine people, and The Post reports that it could confirm interviews with only six people. It appears clear that the FBI did interview Mark Judge, who was named by Christine Blasey Ford as an accomplice in the alleged sexual attack; Patrick Smyth and Leland Keyser, who may have been present downstairs; Chris Garrett, who may have dated Ford at one point; and Tim Gaudette, whose house was the site of a July 1982 gathering noted on Kavanaugh\u2019s calendar.\nHere\u2019s a list of the people who we know have not been interviewed:\nA suitemate of Kavanaugh\u2019s has now told the New Yorker he remembers hearing at the time about the incident Deborah Ramirez has recounted. Ramirez, who has been interviewed, had claimed that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her during a dorm party at Yale. The suitemate, Kenneth G. Appold, now says he is \u201cone-hundred-per-cent certain\u201d that he was told the culprit was Kavanaugh. He does say he never discussed this with Ramirez, but he claims an eyewitness described the episode to him at the time. Appold has tried to share this story with the FBI, but there\u2019s no indication the FBI is willing to hear from him.\nA classmate of Kavanaugh\u2019s at Georgetown Prep now strongly challenges one of Kavanaugh\u2019s assertions under oath. The person told the New Yorker that he heard Kavanaugh talk repeatedly about Renate Dolphin as someone \u201cthat everyone passed around for sex\u201d (the witness\u2019 words), and even heard Kavanaugh singing a rhyme that included the words \u201cyou wanna get laid, you can make it with REE-NATE.\u201d Kavanaugh (and many others) described themselves in their yearbook as a \u201cRenate Alumnius,\u201d but Kavanaugh has denied under oath that this was a sexual reference, claiming, ludicrously, that it was intended to show \u201caffection.\u201d\nThis classmate is not named by the New Yorker. But he put his name on a statement to the FBI and Judiciary Committee that makes this claim, and he is prepared to talk to the FBI. There is no indication this happened.\nJames Roche, one of Kavanaugh\u2019s roommates at Yale, has written a piece for Slate that claims Kavanaugh lied under oath about his use of slang and his drinking. Roche claims that Kavanaugh \u201cregularly\u201d blacked out. Roche has offered to talk to the FBI, but there\u2019s no indication this happened.\nRoche also pointedly added of Kavanaugh: \u201cHe said that \u2018boofing\u2019 was farting and the \u2018Devil\u2019s Triangle\u2019 was a drinking game. \u2018Boofing\u2019 and \u2018Devil\u2019s Triangle\u2019 are sexual references. I know this because I heard Brett and his friends using these terms on multiple occasions.\u201d Roche concluded that Kavanaugh \u201chas demonstrated a willingness to be untruthful under oath about easily verified information.\u201d\nNBC News reports that the FBI has not contacted dozens of people who could potentially corroborate the allegations against Kavanaugh or testify to his behavior at the time. This includes many people who knew either Ford or Ramirez at the time, and people who actually approached the FBI offering information.\nThe Post reports that Ramirez\u2019s lawyers provided the FBI with a list of more than 20 people who might have relevant information, but \u201cas of Wednesday, Ramirez\u2019s team had no indication that the bureau had interviewed any of them.\u201d\nBlasey Ford\u2019s legal team today put out a list of additional people who have not been contacted by the FBI, some of whom were prepared to corroborate that she had in the past discussed being the victim of a sexual assault by a federal jude.\nNeither Ford nor Kavanaugh have been interviewed by the FBI. As the Brookings Institution\u2019s Susan Hennessey points out: \u201cIt is inconceivable they could close a real investigation without re-interviewing Kavanaugh.\u201d\nWe\u2019ll have to wait to hear from individual senators to learn what the FBI findings, such as they are, tell us about the sexual assault allegations. But whatever that is to be, are the undecided senators \u2014 Republicans Jeff Flake, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, and Democrats Joe Manchin and Heidi Heitkamp \u2014 really going to brush off all these new claims, and the restrictions the White House placed on the FBI, lightly?\nKavanaugh\u2019s bad-faith defenders have tried to frame the question about Kavanaugh\u2019s drinking as: Are you really saying his youthful excesses are disqualifying? True, many of those excesses are trivial. But that\u2019s not the right question. Rather, it\u2019s whether Kavanaugh has shown a level of candorin the present about all this stuff (never mind the angry partisanship and openly displayed contempt for the critical role that opposition lawmakers play in this process) that we expect in a Supreme Court justice.\nKavanaugh defenders who have addressed that question point out that he admitted to drinking \u201ctoo many beers\u201d at times and to doing things that now leave him \u201ccringing.\u201d But this doesn\u2019t get Kavanaugh off that particular hook: All of this new information, on top of other things we\u2019ve already learned, credibly indicate that he blatantly falsified multiple aspects of his conduct in a highly specific way. An admission of general cringeworthiness doesn\u2019t mitigate that. Undecided senators need to decide whether Kavanaugh has really demonstrated the integrity \u2014 and respect for the vetting process \u2014 that this position, with all the influence it wields over American life, and all the judiciousness and deliberative qualities we expectfrom those on the high court, demands.\nHundreds of law professors have now added their names to a letter arguing that he has not. And then there\u2019s the process itself. When Flake courageously insisted on a reopened FBI inquiry, he stated that this was necessary to prevent the country from tearing itself apart. The threshold for Flake, then, is that treating these allegations with a seriousness of purpose commensurate with the gravity that millions of Americans across the country accord to sexual assault \u2014 many of them being survivors themselves \u2014 is the necessary precondition for healing the country, and thus for getting his vote. In this, he was joined by Collins and Murkowski.\nBut given everything we\u2019ve seen so far \u2014 and given what we now are learning \u2014 about this process, can any of these undecided senators really claim with a straight face that this standard has been met? If not, . . .\nRussian trolls and bots are flooding Twitter with Ford-Kavanaugh disinformationMax de Haldevang\nMax de Haldevang reports in Quartz:\nBot and troll networks are flooding Twitter with disinformation tied to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh\u2019s alleged assault of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, researchers and analytics services tell Quartz.\nThe subject has produced unprecedented levels of falsehoods and conspiracy theories on Twitter\u2014working on both sides of the political spectrum, says Ben Decker, a research fellow at Harvard University\u2019s Shorenstein Center.\nThe disinformation is coming from accounts both in the US and abroad.\nRussian-linked Twitter accounts\nOnline Twitter accounts tied to Russia are heavily involved in discussing the Supreme Court nominee and allegations against him online.\nHamilton68, a project run by the German Marshall Fund think tank that tracks tweets \u201ctied to Russia-linked influence networks,\u201d listed Kavanaugh, Trump, the FBI, and Ford as the top four topics mentioned by Russia-linked accounts on the evening of Oct. 1.\nThe Russia-linked accounts are largely lending their support to Kavanaugh, says Jonathon Morgan, CEO of New Knowledge, the company that built the software behind Hamilton68. Morgan, who is currently tracking a set of around 1,000 accounts he believes are tied to Russia, says the Kavanaugh hearings have unleashed more US domestic-focused propaganda from foreign-linked networks than his firm has seen in months.\nHowever, it\u2019s difficult to say what percentage of online activity is being spread by foreign or domestic actors, or by bots or accounts run by actual humans who use artificial methods to boost their reach. That\u2019s largely because the sheer quantity of tweets\u2014Morgan is tracking just one subset of a larger network and it tweets tens of thousands of times per week\u2014makes it impossible to track them all down.\nPersonal attacks and disinformation\nPosts about Ford and Kavanaugh are \u201creally cluttered and confused,\u201d with various pieces of clear fabrication from both sides, says Decker.\nPro-Kavanaugh accounts have pushed out false smears aimed at discrediting Ford. One notable anti-Kavanaugh post picked up more than 11,000 retweets while purporting to to cite a Wall Street Journal article that in fact didn\u2019t exist. The tweet (screenshot below) was quickly taken down, Decker says, but the account is still active. . .\nInteresting that Russia backs Kavanaugh. They backed Trump, too.\nPosted in Daily life, Government, Politics, Technology, Trump administration\nPerhaps having our computers that we use in business and government and daily life be manufactured in foreign countries is not a good idea. Jordan Robertson and Michael Riley report in Bloomberg Businesweek:\nIn 2015, Amazon.com Inc. began quietly evaluating a startup called Elemental Technologies, a potential acquisition to help with a major expansion of its streaming video service, known today as Amazon Prime Video. Based in Portland, Ore., Elemental made software for compressing massive video files and formatting them for different devices. Its technology had helped stream the Olympic Games online, communicate with the International Space Station, and funnel drone footage to the Central Intelligence Agency. Elemental\u2019s national security contracts weren\u2019t the main reason for the proposed acquisition, but they fit nicely with Amazon\u2019s government businesses, such as the highly secure cloud that Amazon Web Services (AWS) was building for the CIA.\nTo help with due diligence, AWS, which was overseeing the prospective acquisition, hired a third-party company to scrutinize Elemental\u2019s security, according to one person familiar with the process. The first pass uncovered troubling issues, prompting AWS to take a closer look at Elemental\u2019s main product: the expensive servers that customers installed in their networks to handle the video compression. These servers were assembled for Elemental by Super Micro Computer Inc., a San Jose-based company (commonly known as Supermicro) that\u2019s also one of the world\u2019s biggest suppliers of server motherboards, the fiberglass-mounted clusters of chips and capacitors that act as the neurons of data centers large and small. In late spring of 2015, Elemental\u2019s staff boxed up several servers and sent them to Ontario, Canada, for the third-party security company to test, the person says.\nThis attack was something graver than the software-based incidents the world has grown accustomed to seeing. Hardware hacks are more difficult to pull off and potentially more devastating, promising the kind of long-term, stealth access that spy agencies are willing to invest millions of dollars and many years to get.\nThere are two ways for spies to alter the guts of computer equipment. One, known as interdiction, consists of manipulating devices as they\u2019re in transit from manufacturer to customer. This approach is favored by U.S. spy agencies, according to documents leaked by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden. The other method involves seeding changes from the very beginning.\nOne country in particular has an advantage executing this kind of attack: China, which by some estimates makes 75 percent of the world\u2019s mobile phones and 90 percent of its PCs. Still, to actually accomplish a seeding attack would mean developing a deep understanding of a product\u2019s design, manipulating components at the factory, and ensuring that the doctored devices made it through the global logistics chain to the desired location\u2014a feat akin to throwing a stick in the Yangtze River upstream from Shanghai and ensuring that it washes ashore in Seattle. \u201cHaving a well-done, nation-state-level hardware implant surface would be like witnessing a unicorn jumping over a rainbow,\u201d says Joe Grand, a hardware hacker and the founder of Grand Idea Studio Inc. \u201cHardware is just so far off the radar, it\u2019s almost treated like black magic.\u201d\nBut that\u2019s just what U.S. investigators found: The chips had been inserted during the manufacturing process, two officials say, by operatives from a unit of the People\u2019s Liberation Army. In Supermicro, China\u2019s spies appear to have found a perfect conduit for what U.S. officials now describe as the most significant supply chain attack known to have been carried out against American companies.\nOne official says investigators found that it eventually affected almost 30 companies, including a major bank, government contractors, and the world\u2019s most valuable company, Apple Inc. Apple was an important Supermicro customer and had planned to order more than 30,000 of its servers in two years for a new global network of data centers. Three senior insiders at Apple say that in the summer of 2015, it, too, found malicious chips on Supermicro motherboards. Apple severed ties with Supermicro the following year, for what it described as unrelated reasons.\nIn emailed statements, Amazon (which announced its acquisition of Elemental in September 2015), Apple, and Supermicro disputed summaries of Bloomberg Businessweek\u2019s reporting. \u201cIt\u2019s untrue that AWS knew about a supply chain compromise, an issue with malicious chips, or hardware modifications when acquiring Elemental,\u201d Amazon wrote. \u201cOn this we can be very clear: Apple has never found malicious chips, \u2018hardware manipulations\u2019 or vulnerabilities purposely planted in any server,\u201d Apple wrote. \u201cWe remain unaware of any such investigation,\u201d wrote a spokesman for Supermicro, Perry Hayes. The Chinese government didn\u2019t directly address questions about manipulation of Supermicro servers, issuing a statement that read, in part, \u201cSupply chain safety in cyberspace is an issue of common concern, and China is also a victim.\u201d The FBI and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, representing the CIA and NSA, declined to comment.\nRead: Statements from Amazon, Apple, Supermicro and Beijing\nThe companies\u2019 denials are countered by six current and former senior national security officials, who\u2014in conversations that began during the Obama administration and continued under the Trump administration\u2014detailed the discovery of the chips and the government\u2019s investigation. One of those officials and two people inside AWS provided extensive information on how the attack played out at Elemental and Amazon; the official and one of the insiders also described Amazon\u2019s cooperation with the government investigation. In addition to the three Apple insiders, four of the six U.S. officials confirmed that Apple was a victim. In all, 17 people confirmed the manipulation of Supermicro\u2019s hardware and other elements of the attacks. The sources were granted anonymity because of the sensitive, and in some cases classified, nature of the information.\nOne government official says China\u2019s goal was long-term access to high-value corporate secrets and sensitive government networks. No consumer data is known to have been stolen.\nThe ramifications of the attack continue to play out. The Trump administration has made computer and networking hardware, including motherboards, a focus of its latest round of trade sanctions against China, and White House officials have made it clear they think companies will begin shifting their supply chains to other countries as a result. Such a shift might assuage officials who have been warning for years about the security of the supply chain\u2014even though they\u2019ve never disclosed a major reason for their concerns.\nBack in 2006, three engineers in Oregon had a clever idea. Demand for mobile video was about to explode, and they predicted that broadcasters would be desperate to transform programs designed to fit TV screens into the various formats needed for viewing on smartphones, laptops, and other devices. To meet the anticipated demand, the engineers started Elemental Technologies, assembling what one former adviser to the company calls a genius team to write code that would adapt the superfast graphics chips being produced for high-end video-gaming machines. The resulting software dramatically reduced the time it took to process large video files. Elemental then loaded the software onto custom-built servers emblazoned with its leprechaun-green logos.\nElemental servers sold for as much as $100,000 each, at profit margins of as high as 70 percent, according to a former adviser to the company. Two of Elemental\u2019s biggest early clients were the Mormon church, which used the technology to beam sermons to congregations around the world, and the adult film industry, which did not.\nElemental also started working with American spy agencies. In 2009 the company announced a development partnership with In-Q-Tel Inc., the CIA\u2019s investment arm, a deal that paved the way for Elemental servers to be used in national security missions across the U.S. government. Public documents, including the company\u2019s own promotional materials, show that the servers have been used inside Department of Defense data centers to process drone and surveillance-camera footage, on Navy warships to transmit feeds of airborne missions, and inside government buildings to enable secure videoconferencing. NASA, both houses of Congress, and the Department of Homeland Security have also been customers. This portfolio made Elemental a target for foreign adversaries.\nSupermicro had been an obvious choice to build Elemental\u2019s servers. Headquartered north of San Jose\u2019s airport, up a smoggy stretch of Interstate 880, the company was founded by Charles Liang, a Taiwanese engineer who attended graduate school in Texas and then moved west to start Supermicro with his wife in 1993. Silicon Valley was then embracing outsourcing, forging a pathway from Taiwanese, and later Chinese, factories to American consumers, and Liang added a comforting advantage: Supermicro\u2019s motherboards would be engineered mostly in San Jose, close to the company\u2019s biggest clients, even if the products were manufactured overseas.\nToday, Supermicro sells more server motherboards than almost anyone else. It also dominates the $1 billion market for boards used in special-purpose computers, from MRI machines to weapons systems. Its motherboards can be found in made-to-order server setups at banks, hedge funds, cloud computing providers, and web-hosting services, among other places. Supermicro has assembly facilities in California, the Netherlands, and Taiwan, but its motherboards\u2014its core product\u2014are nearly all manufactured by contractors in China. . .\nThere\u2019s a lot more, and it\u2019s very disturbing. The US is being hollowed out.\nPosted in Business, Daily life, Government, Technology\nThe unbearable dishonesty of Brett Kavanaugh\nBriahna Gray and Camille Baker report in the Intercept:\nMANY OF US who watched Thursday\u2019s Senate hearing spent much of the time cataloguing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh\u2019s lies. After hours of testimony, during which Christine Blasey Ford answered questions about her alleged sexual assault, the financing behind her lie detector test, and whether she was really afraid of flying, viewers were treated to more hours of testimony from Kavanaugh, a federal judge who struggled to give a single straight answer.\nKavanaugh strained credulity when he argued before the Senate Judiciary Committee that the \u201cDevil\u2019s Triangle\u201d \u2014 a phrase that appeared on his high school yearbook page \u2014 referred to a drinking game, a definition which, before Thursday, you\u2019d have a hard time finding anywhere. (It actually refers to a sex act involving two men and a woman). He also unabashedly claimed that the term \u201cboof\u201d is a reference to \u201cflatulence,\u201d rather than other butt stuff, and that \u201cralph,\u201d which means to vomit \u2014implicitly from the overconsumption of alcohol \u2014 was a reference to Kavanaugh\u2019s weak stomach.\nKavanaugh claimed references to \u201cRenate Alumnius\u201d in his yearbook were allusions to his friendship with classmate Renate Schroeder Dolphin, and not, as many understood, a sexist smear about her promiscuity. (Dolphin told the New York Times days before the hearing: \u201cI can\u2019t begin to comprehend what goes through the minds of 17-year-old boys who write such things, but the insinuation is horrible, hurtful and simply untrue.\u201d) Kavanaugh even claimed to not really know Ford at all, despite her testimony that she \u201cwent out with\u201d one of his close friends \u2014someone whose name appeared in his now notorious calendar 13 times.\nKavanaugh\u2019s choice to lie about things that are easily disproved speaks to a kind of hubris, or entitlement, that befits someone of his pedigree. He insinuated that he was of drinking age during the summer of 1982 because, back then, in Maryland, 18-year-olds could legally imbibe. With artful wording, he testified that drinking was \u201clegal for seniors,\u201d even though it was decidedly illegal for him \u2014 a rising senior who wouldn\u2019t turn 18 until the following year. At other moments, he claimed ignorance about the consequence of plainly relevant evidence \u2014 railing against the suggestion that his high school yearbook, a totem to debauchery and sexual frustration, could be relevant to the issue of whether he committed blacked-out sexual assault in high school. \u201cHave at it, if you want to go through my yearbook,\u201d he told Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., with disdain. As though the inquiry itself was made in bad faith.\nIn fact, Kavanaugh dissembled about whether he ever drank to excess at all \u2014 an incredible claim given the contents of his yearbook; his friend Mark Judge\u2019s damning memoir, which is titled \u201cWasted: Tales of a GenX Drunk;\u201d and the sheer number of times Kavanaugh mentioned \u201cbeer\u201d during Thursday\u2019s hearing. Although he admitted in his opening statement that \u201csometimes I had too many beers,\u201d when pressed on how much was too much, he was evasive again: \u201cI don\u2019t know. You know, we \u2014 whatever the chart says, a blood-alcohol chart.\u201d\nPerhaps most gallingly, when Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., asked Kavanaugh whether he had ever blacked out \u2014 just after she empathetically offered that her own father had struggled with alcoholism \u2014 he turned on her and shot back: \u201cI don\u2019t know, have you?\u201d (Kavanaugh later apologized to Klobuchar.)\nHe even tried to play off Judge\u2019s memoir as \u201cfictionalized\u201d \u2014 this despite the book\u2019s title page, which reads: \u201cThis book is based on actual experiences.\u201d No lie, it seems, is too small for Kavanaugh.\nAMONG THE MOST consequential of Kavanaugh\u2019s false claims, and the one Senate Democrats pushed back against the least, was his assertion that all of the witnesses who could corroborate Ford\u2019s testimony denied it ever happened.\nIn true Kavanaugh fashion, that\u2019s not quite right.\nFord testified that in addition to Kavanaugh, at least four other people were in the house on the night of the alleged assault: Mark Judge, who Ford alleges witnessed the assault; and P.J. Smyth, Leland Ingraham Keyser, and an unnamed boy \u2014 all of whom Ford said were downstairs when the alleged assault occurred.\nNine times during Thursday\u2019s hearing, Kavanaugh claimed that four of the teenagers, including himself, made statements affirming that Ford\u2019s version of events didn\u2019t happen.\nIn an exchange with Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., Kavanaugh argued, \u201cBut the core of why we\u2019re here is an allegation for which the four witnesses present have all said it didn\u2019t happen.\u201d Later, in an change with Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., the nominee claimed, \u201cThe witnesses who were there say it didn\u2019t happen.\u201d\nBut, apart from Kavanaugh, who denied the allegations, none of the named witnesses said the allegations didn\u2019t happen. Rather, they stated that they did not recall the house party, or have personal knowledge of the alleged sexual assault.\nKavanaugh specifically argued that Judge had \u201cprovided sworn statement saying this didn\u2019t happen.\u201d But in Judge\u2019s letter to the Judiciary Committee, sent on September 18, he wrote that he has \u201cno memory of this alleged incident,\u201d does \u201cnot recall the party described,\u201d and \u201cnever saw Brett act in the manner Dr. Ford describes.\u201d (On Thursday, after the conclusion of Kavanaugh\u2019s testimony, Judge followed up with a second letter, stating that he did \u201cnever saw Brett act in the manner Dr. Ford describes.\u201d)\nMoreover, Keyser\u2019s statement, issued by her lawyer over the weekend, says only that she \u201cdoes not know Mr. Kavanaugh, and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford.\u201d Not that the event \u201cdidn\u2019t happen.\u201d\nFurther complicating matters, Ford testified that after Keyser submitted her September 19 statement, she texted Ford \u201cwith an apology and good wishes.\u201d And last weekend, the Washington Post reported that Keyser believes Ford\u2019s allegations \u2014 hardly the refutation Kavanaugh claimed.\nSmyth\u2019s letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee stated only that he has no personal knowledge of what\u2019s alleged to have occurred between Kavanaugh and Ford. \u201cI am issuing this statement,\u201d he wrote, \u201cto make it clear to all involved that I have no knowledge of the party in question; nor do I have any knowledge of the allegations of improper conduct [Ford] has leveled against Brett Kavanaugh.\u201d\nImportantly, having \u201cno recollection\u201d of the night in question, or no \u201cknowledge\u201d of the alleged events is not the same as saying it didn\u2019t happen \u2014 especially since Ford never alleged that anyone but Kavanaugh and Judge witnessed the assault. So why would a judge, someone presumably familiar with the implications of what it often means when a witness avers they \u201cdo not recall,\u201d so grossly mischaracterize the nature of those statements?\nKAVANAUGH\u2019S APPARENT WILLINGNESS to perjure himself over accusations of underage drinking or sexual innuendo \u2014 which alone don\u2019t necessarily bear on his suitability for the bench \u2014 is troubling both because of what it implies about his integrity, and because of what it suggests about his reasoning as an adjudicator. . .",

        "raw_content": "Life\u2019s an Adventure \u2013 Be Who You Are\nSee that girl on the right? That\u2019s me, almost twenty years ago, traipsing through France on my own. A student at the Universite de Bordeaux, I was on a one-year Junior Abroad program. It was an amazing time. And I\u2019m amazed when I look at this picture! I was thin, young, naive, and had great skin.\nCertainly, my life is richer now than it was then. I was already head over heels in love with this guy when I got on the plane, but we sealed the deal a year and a half later to make me Mrs. Fish. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would have more than two children; today I\u2019m the mom of six fantastic kiddos. I would not change a single player in this wild, crazy life of mine. I thought France was a dream-come-true. And it was for the time. But, having the rich family life that I do tops even that.\nBack then, I loved writing, good food, and all things French. Not much has changed since then.\nI still wear my heart on my sleeve. I still love to have heart-to-heart talks with a friend over a cup of good coffee. I still value depth of friendship over having multitudes of friends.\nBack then, I kept a careful ledger of every penny I spent \u2013 in francs and dollars! Yeah, I was always weird.\nYes, I\u2019m a different person. I\u2019m a wife, a mother. But, I\u2019m still some of that same girl. Hopefully, just improved since then. Hopefully, some of my weaker qualities have been pruned away and some of the positive aspects of my character have been enhanced since then.\nHopefully, I\u2019m not being someone I\u2019m not. That\u2019s my hope \u2013 to be me. In my life. In my friendships. In my blog.\nAnd that\u2019s who you should be, too. Be you.\nFiled Under: Joyful Womanhood Tagged With: Friendship, goal setting\nA Great Diaper Deal You Don\u2019t Want to Miss!\nMeal Planning: February Meal Plan\nLOVE IT! I spent my junior year of college in Bonn, Germany \u2014 unfortunately, I did not keep track of every \u201cMark and Dollar\u201d even then! That has certainly changed (as has the Mark) \u2014 as have I. I only have half the kids you do \u2014 where has the time gone? But they are my life and joy. (Even the teenager!)\nReminds me of the classic Twila Paris song \u201cSame Girl\u201d \u2013 she\u2019s still the same girl inside \u2013 just wiser for the years.\nThanks for being you\u2013and for lots of heart-to-heart talks over coffee.\nIf only California was in my backyard\u2026\nThis post is so interesting to me because I was thinking of this EXACT thing today! I love music and for some reason, through the hustle and bustle of life, the music has been turned down. I have revisited it and I feel more like me:-)\nAs an older mom (I started momming at 40) I have found myself trying to mimic younger moms from time to time. But you know \u2013 I am who I am. I learn a lot from others, but I am proud to be true to myself and my family!\nGreat picture/post, BTW!\nThank you SO much for continuing to be so open and honest in your blogging\u2026..even if you w-e-r-e-n-\u2018-t a close friend of Crystal Paine, I\u2019d STILL be a big fan of your tips, humor, grateful spirit, worldview and opinions! \ud83d\ude42\nI always look forward to your insightful and faith-filled posts!\nI love that picture! It looks so much like an American in Paris! Aahh. I, too, loved France and all things French when I was young. How can anyone not? The food, the love in the air, the iconic buildings and statues \u2013 The Louvre, Eiffel Tower, L\u2019Arc De Triomphee. I haven\u2019t been there since college, but it was a dream come true to spend time there. Yeah, my life is much different now \u2013 SAHM with three kiddos. I wouldn\u2019t change it for anything, but a vacation in France might have to be in our future!\nAmen to that. Each day I hope I grow into more of the authentic me. Great post, Jessica!",

        "raw_content": "Ruger Single Six Review: Summary\nRuger Single Six Review: Breakdown\nRuger Single Six Review: Accessories and Upgrades\nThis goes without saying with revolvers.\nIt is an accurate weapon, but just remember that it is shooting .22LR. Rimfire cartridges can only be so accurate.\nNot everyone loves the ergonomics of these classic pistols.\nYou\u2019ve got to love the classic look of this revolver.\nOne downfall of revolvers is that there is only so much you can do to them.\nThe weapon is pretty pricey, especially when considering some of the competition. Add in the fact that it shoots .22LR, and many will not want to pay this much.\n\u200bAccuracy. This is aided by a few things. First, the barrel plays a huge part, and second, the adjustable sights. While you can definitely add your own sights, we thought that the factory sights were more than enough.\n\u200bSafety. The added transfer bar safety is a great addition. Making weapons more safe can never be a bad thing.\nEase of use. Revolvers are very intuitive and easy to use. It\u2019s for this reason that I always recommend teaching new shooters on revolvers. The Single Six is an awesome option for this.\n\u200bSize/caliber limit the uses. This isn\u2019t necessarily a bad thing. Just know what you\u2019re getting yourself into. Don\u2019t expect to go put down bears with this just because it\u2019s a big and heavy gun. Similarly, I wouldn\u2019t expect to defend the home with this weapon, because it is a small caliber.\nPrice. Like we mentioned before, the weapon is a little on the expensive side.\nHello and welcome to my Ruger Single Six review.\nThe Single Six has been around for well over 50 years. My grandpa had one, and he swore by it. I learned to shoot with a bolt action .22LR, but his Ruger Single Six was the first handgun I ever shot. After he passed away, I\u2019ve held onto his old Single Six ever since.\nRuger has continued to produce the weapon for years. The new Single Six, which is aptly called the New Model Single Six, is not much different from the old one. Obviously, as the years have gone on, manufacturing has slightly changed, but the quality is still there.\nIf you\u2019re interested in learning more about this revolver, continue reading for our full review of the Ruger Single Six.\nThe Ruger Single Six is a single action revolver that shoots rimfire ammunition. The cylinders each hold six rounds. Single action and the cylinder capacity explain the name of the weapon.\nThe barrel of the revolver is 7.5 inches long, while the whole weapon measures 13 inches long. It weighs in at 45 ounces.\nAs you can see, this is a very large weapon. The barrel is extremely long, it is very heavy, and it shoots rimfire ammunition. This limits the uses of the revolver to a few main uses.\nThe revolver is a great plinking gun, is acceptable for killing varmint, and could be used for competition shooting.\nHowever, like I said about my grandpa, this is also a great gun for teaching people the fundamentals of shooting. Due to the fact that it is a single action revolver, it\u2019s really easy for a new weapons user to understand exactly how the weapon functions and exactly what they\u2019re doing.\nWhen you\u2019re looking at a Ruger Single Six, right off the bat there\u2019s a few things that you\u2019ll love. First and foremost, the classic looks and styling of the revolver are great. It has a very classy look to it, and it always reminds me of years gone by.\nBut, the pros of this weapon are more than just cosmetic. It\u2019s also a piece of history, so that\u2019s at least worth nothing, if nothing else.\nThe other pros are that it is a very reliable and accurate revolver, and it\u2019s extremely easy to use.\nThe accuracy of this revolver is great. The long barrel plays a part in this, due to the fact that it is extremely precisely made and hammer forged. If you\u2019re looking to increase the accuracy of this weapon, it has integral scope mounts, so that you will easily be able to mount scope rings.\nIf you know one thing about revolvers, you\u2019ll know that they are extremely easy to use and maintain. Revolvers are really intuitive to use. Most people know how they work without even having to be taught. You just have to cock the hammer, aim, and let it rock.\nMaintaining them is just as easy. We won\u2019t waste your time with this; search the information if you aren\u2019t familiar. All you need to know is that revolvers are easier to maintain than semiautomatic pistols.\nThe difference between the \u201cNew Model\u201d Single Six and the original Single Six is some added safety features. Ruger added a transfer bar safety mechanism, which essentially makes it impossible to fire unless the trigger is pulled. It makes it safer for all six chambers to be loaded.\nOther than that safety, the rest is on you. Revolvers are very safe to begin with, due to how easy they are to use. You have to cock the hammer and pull the trigger for the weapon to shoot. Cleaning the weapon doesn\u2019t require any pulling of the trigger, and it\u2019s extremely easy to visually see if there is a round in the chamber.\nAs far as reliability, this should go without saying. Revolvers are arguably the most reliable weapon out there. It\u2019s nearly impossible for them to jam. There are so few internal parts, that there is essentially nothing that can go wrong with it.\nAs long as you clean the weapon occasionally and treat it right, the Single Six will last for years and years to come. Trust me, I\u2019ve got proof of this sitting in my gun safe right now.\nSeeing as this is modeled after an extremely old revolver, the comfort isn\u2019t exactly on par with some of the more modern weapons. It\u2019s got a classic, curved revolver grip.\nWhile I don\u2019t mind it, many people don\u2019t particularly enjoy shooting them, especially if you\u2019ve gotten used to ergonomic finger grips and other grip features that are more common on modern pistols. These revolvers are just smooth wood.\nAs far as the shootability, this revolver can\u2019t be beat. Due to the weight of the weapon, you feel almost no recoil at all. It shoots as accurately as you can expect to be with .22LR, and the sights are fully adjustable, so you will be able to ensure that you are on target.\nThis is a basic revolver with adjustable sights, so it is pretty much ready to roll right out of the box. However, there are a few things worth purchasing along with it, or potentially upgrading down the road.\nFirst, we recommend that you get a holster of some sort for carrying it on the range or around your property or whatever you\u2019re going to do with the weapon. One option is a belt holster, such as this one from Galco International.\nGALCO INTERNATIONAL - SINGLE ACTION OUTDOORSMAN HOLSTERS\nYou could look to get some night sights installed on the revolver. Williams Gun Sights make a good fiber optic option:\nIf you ever want to mount any accessories on it, you could get this picatinny rail mount for the weapon. This will give you the option to mount almost any sight.\nAfter reading my Ruger Single Six review, you will probably notice that it is a great weapon, although its uses are somewhat limited.\nIt\u2019s extremely enjoyable to shoot, and does so pretty well. As far as .22LR goes, it is an accurate weapon, and of course it\u2019s got the expected Ruger revolver reliability.\nAll in all, I\u2019ve been happy with my Single Six, and I take it to the range with me just about every time. If for nothing else, revolvers are not nearly as common anymore, so you\u2019ll get a lot of people interested in the weapon just based on that fact alone.\nIf you have any questions or comments please feel free to leave them in the comments section below.",

        "raw_content": "With Malta\u2019s warm Mediterranean climate, EU membership, easy travel distances throughout Europe, thriving business community and largely English-speaking population, many who come to visit the Maltese islands choose to stay on and become an official citizen.\nHere is how Maltese citizenship may be obtained via naturalisation, registration, or purchase.\nHow to get Citizenship through Naturalisation\nTo become a citizen of Malta by naturalisation, you must either be a former citizen of Malta; have been born abroad to Maltese parents who are returned migrants; have been born in Malta but hold a foreign citizenship and at least one of your parents is a Maltese citizen; have been born to non-Maltese parents who subsequently acquired Maltese citizenship; or have been born abroad but are of Maltese descent.\nYou must also have resided in Malta for the 12 months immediately preceding your application, and for up to four years in total during the six years before that.\nTo start the application process, submit a residence certificate to the Department for Citizenship and Expatriate Affairs, which can be issued by providing the Principal Immigration Officer at the Police General Headquarters in Floriana, with your current passport and all expired passports for the periods of your residence in Malta.\nOnce this certificate has been approved, you may proceed with your citizenship application. Along with it you may be asked to supply various documents as evidence where appropriate, such as your birth certificate, parent\u2019s birth and marriage certificates, your passport and identity card, or marriage certificate. Your application should also include a letter explaining your reasons for becoming a citizen of Malta, a police conduct certificate and three passport-size portrait photographs.\nTo apply for naturalisation as a citizen of Malta, you should present all documents to the Department for Citizenship and Expatriate Affairs, and also find two sponsors, who are not relatives, to complete part of the application form. The first sponsor should hold an official public services position such as a notary, doctor or parish priest, and the second should be any Maltese citizen to serve as witness. Once the completed form has been submitted, you will then need to take the necessary oaths of allegiance to Malta and pay an application fee.\nHow to Register for Citizenship\nYou may apply for registration as a citizen of Malta if you are or have been married to a citizen of Malta for at least five years; are a widow or widower of a citizen of Malta with whom you had been married for at least five years; are a widow or widower of a person who died before Malta\u2019s Independence on 21st September 1964 but whose circumstances meant they would have become a citizen of Malta; are the son or daughter born prior to 21st September 1964 of a female citizen of Malta; are the son or daughter born outside of Malta between 21st September 1964 and 1st August 1989 to a female citizen of Malta; are a former citizen of Malta who does not qualify for dual citizenship since you did not spend six years living abroad or were formerly a citizen by registration or naturalisation; or are the second or third generation descendent born abroad of a person born in Malta to parents who were also born in Malta.\nTo support your application, you may need to supply other documents as evidence of your eligibility, such as your birth or marriage certificate, your parents\u2019 or grandparents\u2019 birth and marriage certificates, and any pertaining to your spouse. As with naturalisation, with your application, you will also need to provide your passport and identity card, and those of your spouse where necessary, and three passport-sized portrait photographs.\nThe required documents should be submitted to the Department for Citizenship and Expatriate Affairs, where a official will oversee the completion of the application form by yourself and your spouse (where appropriate), and then guide you through the oath of allegiance to Malta and process your application fee. You may also be asked to go to the Police Immigration Office in Floriana for an interview.\nHow to apply for the Individual Investor Programme (MIIP)\nIt is also possible to apply for citizenship by investment, if you are not eligible to apply via naturalisation or registration, provided you can prove that you have been resident in Malta for a minimum of 12 months before the application, that you intend to purchase property and invest in Malta, and that you are in good health with a clean police record.\nIn this case, applications should not be made directly to the Malta Individual Investor Programme Agency, but through any accredited agent which that has been licensed to do so in the terms of the Malta Individual Investor Programme (MIIP). Applicants obtaining citizenship in this way are considered naturalised Maltese citizens for life and may have dual citizenship with another country.\nTo purchase Maltese citizenship, the contribution to be paid towards the National Development and Social Funds (NSDF) under the IIP starts at \u20ac650,000 for the main applicant, of which \u20ac10,000 is a non-refundable deposit, then is \u20ac25,000 for your spouse, \u20ac50,000 for every unmarried child between the ages of 18 and 26, and \u20ac50,000 for every dependent parent over the age of 55.\nAdditional Due Diligence Fees that are payable to Identity Malta include \u20ac7,500 for the main applicant, \u20ac5,000 for your spouse, \u20ac3,000 for every child between the ages of 13 and 18, \u20ac5,000 for each unmarried child between the ages of 18 and 26, \u20ac5,000 for every dependent parent over the age of 55, and \u20ac500 per passport. There is also a bank charges fee per application of \u20ac200.\nIn a process that takes several months to complete, due diligence checks are carried out to verify your situation and that the necessary funds are in place to support the application. Visit https://luxury.remax-malta.com/en/buying/malta-individual-investor-programme/\nMalta has been taken by storm by investors from several industries and sits perfectly located for travel and business and is an ideal place for well to do individuals that are not only looking for a second home but a place where they can live a luxury lifestyle that is in an English speaking environment that has all the amenities that one would look for in a home of residence.",

        "title": "6 Things Recent Grads Need to Know to Become Manufacturing Entrepreneurs | Maker\u2019s Row Blog",
        "raw_content": "by Nathan Sykes on May 24th, 2018 in Education, Entrepreneur\nAt its core, manufacturing is about turning materials into products, or finished goods. Sometimes it\u2019s about assembling various components into a finished device or item. It could also be taking those raw materials and breaking them down or modifying them for use in product design or installation. In a broad sense, manufacturing includes a range of industries, tasks and career opportunities as a result. Whether you\u2019re working in engineering, bio-manufacturing, technology or something else entirely, there\u2019s sure to be plenty of opportunities for growth and development.\nManufacturing also happens to be one of the largest sectors in the United States, contributing significantly to the nation\u2019s economy. Manufacturing employs 8.7 percent of the U.S. population, which makes it the third-largest industry in the country regarding jobs and career growth. Unfortunately, many graduates and younger professionals tend to avoid the industry for unknown reasons. Maybe it seems boring or uninteresting? Maybe the pay isn\u2019t considered suitable?\nWhatever the case, we think it\u2019s crucial to highlight some things you\u2019ll want to know about the manufacturing. Some of these may change your impression of the industry or influence your decision altogether.\n1. You See Your Work to the Bitter End\nOne of the biggest benefits of working in the manufacturing industry, especially for creatives, is that you get to work with tangible goods and see them to completion. Even working via an assembly line environment \u2014 which is not the only path to take in the industry \u2014 you still get to see the finished product at the end of the line. It requires patience, dedication and focus. There\u2019s a special feeling of satisfaction that comes from knowing you had your hand in the direct development and creation of beloved products. For all you know, you could be making the next big smartphone, children\u2019s toy, gadget or fashion piece.\nIt\u2019s difficult to explain the true sense of pleasure you get from simply proclaiming \u201cI made that.\u201d\n2. You Will Need These Skills\nIt\u2019s safe to say that every career or job opportunity out there has its own set of skills and abilities that are necessary for success. Manufacturing is no exception to that rule. What skills should you work on improving or growing? Some of the best skills to have or improve are critical thinking, collaboration and social engagement, STEM skills, problem-solving, knowledge flexibility and even foreign language. You don\u2019t need to have every single one of these skills, and they don\u2019t all need to be at an expert level, especially when you\u2019re first starting. However, it\u2019s always a good idea to have a core list to focus on.\n3. It\u2019s Safe and Engaging\nTwo common myths among those not involved in the industry are that it\u2019s not generally safe, and that most of the work you\u2019ll be doing is boring or uninspiring. Neither of these things is true. When it comes to safety, the history of manufacturing is dark. In the past, dangerous chemicals, machines and varying environmental hazards were rampant issues. Thanks to modern technology, legal and social standards, and better efficiency, the industry is safer and cleaner today. In fact, automation hardware and advanced robotics are making things even safer, by taking the more tedious and dangerous tasks from their human counterparts.\n4. You Get to Work With Innovative Technologies and Hardware\nAnother misconception is that manufacturing involves working with outdated and ancient machines or hardware. That\u2019s not the case at all. In fact, you are more likely to be working directly with innovative and commercially viable hardware that no one else ever has. New tech like IoT, 3-D printing and additive manufacturing, drones, and even robotics are being adopted every day. Many of the tech is deployed or used before it sees the public eye. That makes the industry especially lucrative for anyone who loves technology or gadgets. Throw tinkering and development into the mix, and you have a veritable digital heaven for modern techies.\n5. Opportunities Abound\nSadly, not long after you graduate, you\u2019ll end up taking a job where you\u2019ll be spending the next few years, maybe even longer. Right out of the gate, there isn\u2019t always the potential to grow or move up in your industry. That\u2019s not true in manufacturing. There\u2019s so much room to grow in all directions. You can also hop industries, going from welding to research to distribution in a short time. Add in the fact that older generations like the baby boomers are soon retiring, and you\u2019ll find even more opportunities. Plus, you don\u2019t have to work with production and development specifically. In the manufacturing industry, there are also sales and marketing, human resources, and management opportunities. They need someone with manufacturing experience, yet don\u2019t require you to have hands-on experience with the machines in question.\nIn other words, there\u2019s something for everyone.\n6. Helping the Community\nTo some, this is the most important and most rewarding aspect of any career opportunity. How are you giving back to your community and country on a personal level? The manufacturing industry is one of the most influential in our local economy, and in the rest of the world, too. It has an immense impact on jobs, personal and societal livelihoods, and the overall state of the economy. Research ranks manufacturing as one of the most important industries in the nation. Being as it\u2019s directly responsible for the modern standard of living and many goods and services we use today, there\u2019s no contest.\nWhen you enter the manufacturing industry you are making a difference, and that always feels good \u2014 whether you\u2019re young or old.\nManufacturing Offers Promising Career Opportunities for Just About Everyone\nThe list of opportunities in the industry is seemingly endless, although that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you\u2019ll have an easy go of it. You still need to focus on the skills and abilities discussed above, and you must also be willing to put in the time. There are plenty of benefits to be had for entering the industry, especially if you\u2019re looking to start your own manufacturing business.\nRelated Reading: What You Didn't Know About Hot Tub Production",

It was co-founded by Penelope Trunk, a well-known author and columnist in the area of careers, along with Ryan Healy and Ryan Paugh.\nPrimarily the Brazen Careerist website was focused on articles and blog posts from the community (a blog network), but that all changed an hour ago when the website transformed from a community website into an all-out social network, focused on flipping the conventional wisdom surrounding the resume by focusing on \"idea feeds.\"\nBrazen Careerist now focuses on the social aspects, and the profiles are the center of this new universe. While you'll find general information - followers, following, groups, interests, social media accounts, etc. - what makes Brazen Career different is the Ideas Stream and the Resume section.\nIdea Stream essentially is a news feed, but focuses on career-related ideas, updates from your groups (i.e. New York professionals, Bloggers, etc.). Resume is exactly as it sounds: a version of your resume with your work history, education, and summary.\nFor the professional, it makes sense: it's a great way to connect with other professionals, learn about your industry, and ask others for advice. For the company or the headhunter looking to find raw talent, it may be a bit difficult to sift through all the potential hires, as detailed filtering is not yet implemented.\nBrazen Careerist has been one of our favorite Generation Y websites. But while the old site was really just a blog network, the new one really is \"a career management tool for next-generation professionals,\" even if it does not introduce anything groundbreaking.\nIt's an intellect's version of LinkedIn, though it will need to implement a lot more social and organizational features before it can realize its potential. It also faces the uphill battle of convincing busy Gen Yers that spending time building a profile is worth their time.\nTopics: Brazen Careerist",

Companies such as Microsoft, and now Facebook have started developing their own platforms in which bots are created. End users can test this new technology right now from apps such as Skype and Messenger.\nIdeally, bots are meant to serve as the middleman between the user and a business, without having to download a separate app. They are created to help the user complete tasks, or serve as reminders for certain instances. We can rely on them as an ecosystem of its very own. Bots have the ability to add an extra layer of interactivity on top of apps that you already use. However, some people can argue whether or not bots can replace apps entirely.\nAre they good enough to replace apps?\nPersonally, right now as the technology is\u200a\u2014\u200abots have not grown to the point where they can be completely independent just yet. Bots still depend on apps to serve as a roof over their head. Give the concept time to grow and be built upon, and eventually they can create their own ecosystem. Major improvements are yet to be made to bots as a whole, suffice to say that artificial intelligence does the right thing, unlike the complete flop of Tay.AI.",

        "title": "5 Things to Know About CBD Oil - MedShadow",
        "raw_content": "CBD oil, which comes from marijuana, has grown in popularity as a treatment for sleep, pain, appetite and other uses. Here's what you should know about it.\nBy Jenn Morson\nGiven the number of states now legalizing marijuana, many people are less hesitant to try cannabis and other cannabis-related products like CBD (cannabidiol) oil. In many places, you can walk into your local health food store and buy CBD oil drops and lozenges \u2014 even shampoos and hand lotions. Before you start using CBD oil, take a few moments to review information about it.\n1. What Is CBD Oil?\nCBD oil is created when cannabidiol, one of 104 chemical compounds found in the cannabis sativa plant, is combined with a carrier such as hemp oil or coconut oil. Both hemp and marijuana are derived from the same plant. CBD oil does not, however, have intoxicating properties. Getting high from the cannabis plant requires the presence of another chemical compound, tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. Eric Poehner, general manager of Mana Supply Inc., a medical marijuana dispensary in Annapolis, Maryland, confirms that CBD oil is not psychoactive.\n2. Is CBD Oil Legal?\nAs more and more states legalize medicinal and even recreational marijuana, the market for CBD oil and CBD oil products in those states has exploded. Although there are rules and regulations in many states, for the most part CBD oil is considered legal. There is not, however, any federal law legalizing CBD oil, so be aware that each state has differing laws. In California, for example, by law CBD oil is not to be added to food products. However, that law is largely being ignored, and products containing CBD are widely available in the state. If you live in a state where you can walk into your neighborhood health food store and purchase CBD oil, it is either legal or laws are not being enforced, while if you live in one of the 14 states with CBD restrictions, you may not be able to do so.\n3. Why Are People Taking CBD Oil?\nThe human body has an endocannabinoid system (ECS) in addition to its other systems. The ECS was discovered in the past 25 years and is believed to help regulate sleep, appetite, pain and the immune system.\nPeople who take CBD oil often do so to address sleep issues. Madeline Ulivieri decided to try CBD oil instead of sleep medications. \u201cI\u2019m not really a pill person,\u201d she says. \u201cSo I tried CBD oil after some friends told me it worked for them.\u201d Ulivieri says each night she takes a drop of the oil about 30 minutes before her bedtime, and if she isn\u2019t asleep in an hour, she takes an additional half a drop. \u201cIt\u2019s been amazing for me,\u201d she says.\nMary Hallgren vapes CBD oil several times a day in order to manage her fibromyalgia pain. \u201cIt has helped me so much more than the gabapentin [Neurontin] prescription,\u201d she says. Hallgren learned of the oil\u2019s use on a fibromyalgia support site and says it relieves her muscle pain.\n4. What Does the FDA Say About CBD Oil?\nThe FDA does not consider CBD oil as a supplement, even though it is often sold that way. In fact, CBD oil products are very lightly regulated. When companies make claims about the effectiveness of CBD oil as a medical treatment, the agency can intervene. In June, however, the FDA approved Epidiolex, making it the first FDA-approved drug derived from marijuana.\nEpidiolex, which contains CBD, is an anti-seizure medication that is currently approved only to treat two rare forms of epilepsy. The FDA has said that Epidiolex\u2019s approval will lead to more drug trials and the development of more therapies involving CBD and other cannabinoids. The FDA warns, however, that they \u201c\u2026. are prepared to take action when we see the illegal marketing of CBD-containing products with serious, unproven medical claims.\u201d\n5. Are There Any Precautions?\nAccording to the prescription insert for Epidiolex, side effects may include insomnia, diarrhea, sleepiness, rash and decreased appetite. Ulivieri says that CBD oil makes her sleepy, which in her case is the desired effect versus an adverse one. But she does report that when using CBD oil, she always makes sure to take it with food, since she has a sensitive stomach. On the occasions where she has neglected to eat a little something along with her CBD oil, Ulivieri reports waking up with a sour stomach. Pasqua Osso was prescribed a CBD oil vapor pen, but she has requested a different form of the medication because it burned her throat and left a bitter aftertaste in her mouth.\nThere are concerns that CBD may negatively interact with some medications, potentially causing side effects. There are also indications that CBD may harm the liver, as it has been shown to increase liver enzymes in patients in some studies.\nA 2017 research letter published in JAMA found that 70% of CBD products purchased were mislabeled, as they either had a higher or lower concentration of CBD than listed on the label. Some of the products also contained THC, even though they weren\u2019t supposed to.\nWhether you are seeking better sleep, relief from anxiety or pain management, discuss CBD oil with your physician.\nJenn Morson is a freelance writer living and working outside of Washington, DC.

        "raw_content": "Memorial Advanced Surgery offers general and weight loss surgery. Our surgeons are highly trained in the most advanced surgical techniques. We are leaders in minimally invasive and robotic procedures, and are some of the most experienced surgeons in the area in performing surgeries that once required much larger incisions.\nWe perform the vast majority of abdominal surgery laparoscopically, and whenever appropriate, utilize the daVinci\u00ae robot, helping patients recover and get back to their normal lives more quickly.\nLaparoscopic surgery, also called minimally invasive surgery (MIS), is a modern surgical technique in which operations are performed through small incisions (usually 0.5\u20131.5 cm) in the abdomen. During a laparoscopic procedure, a laparoscope (a fiberoptic camera-like instrument) is passed into the abdominal wall to light up and magnify the structures inside the abdomen. The camera transmits an image of the organs inside the abdomen onto a television monitor. Since the surgeon is not able to see directly into the abdominal cavity without the traditional large incision, the video camera becomes a surgeon\u2019s eyes during laparoscopic surgery. The surgeon uses the image from the video camera positioned inside the patient\u2019s body to perform the procedure.\nSome procedures utilize robotic technology, which features tiny instruments and high-definition cameras to increase accuracy and precision. The daVinci\u00ae robotic system expands a surgeon's capability to operate within the abdomen in a less invasive fashion. This system allows better visualization compared to standard laparoscopic surgery. Operations with the daVinci\u00ae robot are performed with the primary surgeon working a few feet from the operating table while seated at a computer console that provides a three-dimensional view of the operating field. The surgeon at the console controls the mechanical arms on the robot, while the secondary surgeon is at the patient\u2019s bedside to assist where needed and ensure the surgery is carried out safely. The mechanical arms are equipped with specialized instruments that allow for hand-like movements and a video camera that provides high resolution, high magnification and greater depth perception.\nSome of the advantages of MIS include:\nSmaller and fewer incisions, resulting in less scarring\nQuicker recovery times and faster return to daily activities\nShorter hospital stays, often with a same day discharge\nLess pain post-operatively\nProcedures we routinely perform include, but are not limited to:",

        "raw_content": "Category: Disclosure\nDebt Forgiveness is the Answer\nSaLuSa 03-October-2012\nAs you are undoubtedly noting, the unrest amongst the worlds population is spreading. The people are not prepared to suffer any longer for the indiscretions of the Bankers, who have caused such severe austerity measures to be brought into the countries involved. The governments are fearful of the power of the people, and know that if they persist they will be forced to find another solution to the problems. In the long run, debt forgiveness is the complete answer, but you will have to wait and see if that realization is accepted. You the people have been deliberately kept in need due to the intention to the Illuminati to make you dependent on them. This way they have been able to dictate exactly how your lives have progressed.\nSo the power game is still being played out but on balance it is moving towards the people, who have awoken to how they have been falsely mislead to allow the dark Ones to rule their lives. As Sovereign Beings you should have had a far better quality of life, and there has been more than adequate means for your governments to do so. The rich and powerful have held you back to maintain their own position in society. When the wealth is re-distributed you will see that there has been enough in the world, for everyone to enjoy a life of plenty. The changes that will trigger a return to abundance are in hand, and in due course will happen in your lifetimes. We of the Galactic Federation of Light will have a role in it, and the plans have already been prepared.\nLike you we are waiting for sufficient progress to take place so that we can push on with our responsibility to you, to ensure that the path to Ascension opens up more quickly. Obviously with the end times approaching so fast we do want to have the opportunity to come to Earth, as our technology will enable communications to be lifted up to a more efficient level. Then we can address the world who will hear what we have to say in their respective languages. In general terms we need to make sure that everyone learns of Ascension, and have the opportunity to take part in it. Some will of course have little or no interest, but at least they will not be able to say that they did not know about it.\nWe see the divide on Earth becoming wider between those of the Light and those who are still held back by the lower energies. Gradually the awakening is spreading, and many souls are realizing their greater potential to make changes to their lives for the better. A lack of belief in God is not necessarily preventing people from ascending, as many of them are at heart very kind and decent people. It is what you are inside that counts, but we always come back to the need to treat others as yourself. We will repeatedly remind you that you are All One and if you can accept that, you will be moving into the Light because of your love for all Beings. It is quite simple and not complicated to lift yourselves up, and with it you will experience a greater degree of consciousness.\nDo not doubt for one moment that you are powerful souls, and do not put any limitations on your ability to achieve a higher level of existence. You have the potential to be whatever you desire, but you have to work towards it to be successful. You are not referred to as Gods for no reason, and many of you are already Masters. In the near future you will discover your true identity and find that you have greatly benefited from your experiences in duality. You will go on to have further ones, but in the higher dimensions the pace of evolution is a lot slower. Obviously you do not face the day to day challenges that you have now, or the opportunity to evolve as quickly.\nAfter such a long time in the lower vibrations it will be a pleasant change for you to move into peaceful dimensions where you can relax and enjoy yourselves. There are so many more levels that you can evolve into, and each one is of increasing vibrations and Light. Eventually you will move beyond the need to take form as you understand it, but can nevertheless provide it for yourself when the occasion requires it. You will not immediately gain all of the benefits together, but will quickly acquire those that will replace what you are leaving behind. The chores and unpleasant features of living in the third dimension will no longer exist, and all will be a beautiful and satisfying experience.\nKeep looking on the bright side of things even if you are suffering from an illness or disability, as it will not be with you for much longer. Your body is already changing and your vibrations will soon be powerful enough to bring about a reversal. The thought of having a perfect body will help with the creation of it, as what you focus upon is what you get. That is why we encourage you to focus on the Light and not things of the lower energies. Do not doubt your capabilities, as you can create from pure thought. Collectively of course it is increased exponentially and carrying you forward to Ascension. It is further enhanced by the Light that comes to you from many other sources, both on and off Earth.\nWe have consistently informed you that as a highly spiritual Being, Barack Obama was destined to win the Presidential Election. You are now seeing that his position is looking assured, and that means that we can wait until afterwards to involve ourselves in Disclosure. It will bring the commencement of many major changes, and you will finally see the collapse of the dark Ones. They have lived on borrowed time, and should have gone quite some time ago but have tried to deny the obvious fact that the Light is victorious. It has not been helped by the apathy of people who fail to see how their freedom has been taken away from them.\nI am SaLuSa from Sirius, and will inform you that we continue to remove the dark forces that have been using bases on your Earth for a very long time. They are not allowed to stay any longer, and have no place in the Ascension process. Their existence so far has mainly been a legacy from several thousand years ago, and the evidence still remains in your recorded history. As many of you know, in recent times the Greys were allowed to reside upon Earth by agreement with your U.S. government, but these must also leave.\nPlease Sign this Disclosure Petition\nhttp://wh.gov/WiQk\nWe will win by our persistance.\nTags: 2012, Ascension, Austerity Drive, Cabal, Debt Forgiveness, Financial Crisis, galactic federation of light, Higher consciousness, Illuminati, New Paradigm, Obama, SaLuSa, Spirituality\nIt is appropriate to remain confident at this time\n\u2018Arrests Update\u2019\nDebunkers are those who attempt to disprove theories and beliefs of others. The reasons why these individuals or even organizations choose to use much of their energy in such pursuits differs from person to person, but we will say for the most part these individuals attempt to disprove or dismiss other\u2019s views because these views to not match their own beliefs and understandings. We see this as an unproductive means to advance on one\u2019s journey, learning and picking up new ideas and concepts as one travels through this universe, but we will also say that all of the choices of others no matter what they may be should be respected and are respected always by us, and therefore we welcome any and all views even if they are on the contrary to our existence and our peaceful intentions to assist humanity and your planet at this time.\nThere are many of you with opposing views; this has been made very clear to us of the Galactic Federation of Light. We see these differences in opinions flaring up from time to time into heated debate and argument and even in the promulgation of insults being hurled back and forth. We do not wish to see this, as again, there are certainly more productive ways to share your ideas and your points of view to each other. We wish to say that there is no need for name calling or insulting of one another. You are all in this together. You have all gotten to this point together. If you could open up the pages of your true history you would read stories and adventures that team you with individuals that today you may argue with throughout your online communities. This is what we would like you to understand, that even those who today may appear your enemy or your foe of some kind may have been your brother or your sister or your closest friend or ally while you were at war with others. Try to see this, and try to understand that all of you are indeed friends and you are all indeed family. Try to think of this the next time debate turns heated throughout your online communities and we feel this can be your water to the flame.\nWe would like to speak with you today about the impending arrests of many members of your criminal cabal who have conspired against the people of your planet. We would like to say that the operation to remove these beings from your world is proceeding smoothly at this very time. We are seeing troop movement into areas where we, through our monitoring capabilities, have concluded members of your criminal cabal await for their arrest or have chosen these areas as a place of refuge in an attempt to hide from what is inevitable and what is just. We see that there are many of you waiting with great anticipation for the news of these arrests to break through your popular media, and we say to you that it is appropriate to remain confident at this time, but we also urge you to remain patient, as although signals have indeed been given that these arrests will now proceed, this is an extremely delicate operation and matters must be dealt with appropriately as they surface one by one and appeased sufficiently before the operation can once again begin to move forward.\nAt this time, we have perceived several different difficulties on certain fronts of this operation, and we say to you that we, along with your Earth allies, are dealing with these problems and difficulties and are doing our best to minimize any and all delays. We will say, and are happy to say it, that we do see these arrests moving forward and we do see these arrests being accomplished in a very suitable timeframe from now. For those of you waiting and counting the minutes down of a 72 hour window that was opened a day or two ago, we say to you please do not count the minutes and try to remain as patient and as optimistic as you possibly can, as at this time there is great momentum being swept up by the people of your world including your Earth allies and we do not wish this emotional, mental and physical momentum to ebb and subside. We wish for this momentum to carry your people through these arrests and continue on into the many new projects that wait for your assistance in the days ahead.\nWe see these arrests as the catapulting event that will send your world over the walls that have kept you locked inside and locked within a system of antiquity, imbalance, injustice and unfairness. These arrests will be monumental, as nothing of this magnitude has ever occurred here in your world and this includes all of your wars, including wars that many of you have no idea have been fought as they occurred beyond the understanding of your local and recent histories. These arrests will finally put an end once and for all of all wars, conflict and skirmishes across your entire planet. There will never be another reason for a human to pick up an arm against another human and point it at them. This is a behavior that was ignited by the ruthless and cunning minds of your criminal cabal, as they tricked and conned you into believing you had enemies across seas or across imaginary borders drawn in the sand.\nWe tell you that you do not have any enemies but those who propagate this lie and this fear, this con and betrayal. These are the ones that you must learn how to handle and remove from your world. It is not each other that are the problem or your reasons for conflict, suffering and war, it is the doings of those that will now face justice for their heinous acts against you, the people of Earth. The people of your planet have spoken, and they have stated loudly and they have stated clearly that no longer will they be manipulated, ruled, controlled and oppressed by so few of opulence, of wealth, power, ruthlessness, cunning and deviousness. These are the traits of those who at this time desperately try to cling to their crumbling empire of control they have built like pyramidal structures throughout your systems, agencies, governments and people. They are losing their grip on their pyramids, and these pyramids are crumbling and toppling onto them. They will be crushed under their weight, and they will never be allowed to resurface in your home ever again.\nThis is one of the promises to you that we will make, and we keep our promises. Never again will these beings be allowed to filter through breaches in the dimensional enforcements. This is something that we of the higher realms are better qualified to deal with and deal with it we will, and we wish you to know that we have worked very long and very hard at a new, refined and strengthened system that will never allow again a crack to appear in the dike, if you will, and allow lower dimensional beings to trespass into the domain of higher dimensional beings which is what occurred here hundreds of thousands of years ago. This is what our mission is correcting at this time, and we will not stop our efforts until every being that has not earned the right to be here is removed and relocated to where it is they do belong, whether it be within the lower dimensions or somewhere else. They will be removed, and they will never be permitted to call this planet their home ever again. You can be assured of this and know that your new world will be ever safe and guarded from any infiltration, lower dimensional or extra terrestrial in nature, ever again.\nWe are your protectors and we are your family of the Galactic Federation of Light.\nUPDATE \u2013 SaLuSa \u2013 July 02 2012\nHowever, we expect President Obama to address the world, to re-assure people that the actions are positive and in everyone\u2019s interests to restore world peace. It will go worldwide and beyond any attempts of the dark Ones to gag it.\nTags: 2012, Ascension, Cabal, Change, galactic federation of light, Greg Giles, Higher consciousness, Illuminati, Mass arrests, New Paradigm, Spirituality\nGREEN LIGHT \u2013 Mass Arrests\nGreen Light! Mass Arrests Will Now Commence!\nPentagon and military insider Drake has announced, tonight 6/27/12 at approximately 8:30PM, that the long anticipated green light has been given and the military and law enforcement alliance known to the people as the \u2018Earth Allies\u2019 will now move in within a time frame of 72 hours to begin the world wide sweep and mass arrests of thousands of members and associates of the criminal organization known as the \u2018cabal\u2019. For those unfamiliar with this action, these arrests will free, once and for all, all of humanity from their dark captures who have conspired to bankrupt, sicken and finally imprison every human being on the planet.\nAll citizens are advised to pick up a week or so worth of food, water and all necessary provisions as some store closures and utility outages are possible. All citizens are also advised to withdraw from their financial institutions enough cash to last at least a week, and preferably up to three weeks, as certain banks are expected to close their doors, rendering credit and debit cards useless for at least a certain period of time. All citizens are advised to remain calm and within a centered emotional state. All citizens are strongly urged not to riot or engage in any violent actions of any kind.\nMilitary units and law enforcement personnel will be witnessed making these arrests throughout the United States as well as in some other parts of the world, and all are advised to understand that these men and women are working in service to their brothers and sisters, to freedom, to constitutional government and to love. These military and law enforcement units are not moving in to arrest the citizens of their respective countries as some media outlets may erroneously report in the early stages of this far ranging operation. These units are engaging in the arrests of the members of the criminal cabal and their many associates, that is all.\nAll are advised to stock their homes with the basic necessities and also advise as many family members and friends what to expect and what these arrests will mean to the people of this world who have suffered too long under the oppression of these criminals and their dark agenda of power and control. This day has been a long time coming, and all are advised to celebrate as these arrests are televised world wide as a signal to our brethren that this is not more of the same bad news we have been programed to believe is the only form of news. This is a time to celebrate, and the celebrations will continue through the July 4th holiday, which will be a true celebration of independence for the people of the U.S. and all the people of our world.\nOriginal post \u2013 Greg Giles\nSaLuSa from Sirius of The Galactic Federation\nThe hot topic that occupies most of you is the commencement of the arrests so that you are in no doubt that the final days of the cabal have arrived. Needless to say, it will cause a sensation across the world and the media will have to respond. They will be inundated with calls asking for an explanation, and eventually even those that are conservative will be forced to give the true reasons for what is happening. There will be official announcements in the US, and careful steps taken to ensure that people have the correct understanding of why the arrests are taking place. Doubt will exist until it becomes clear that the actions are in the interests of all people, by providing a scenario whereby they can be released from the hold of the dark Ones. There will be deliberate disinformation circulated by those still under the control of the Illuminati, but we will make it clear that the Military are involved as a back up for those making the arrests. They are not execution squads and will only use weapons if they or the Marshalls are attacked, in the course of their legitimate pursuits.

The factors that are the cause of this event to come have been contributed to by the damage that has been done to this planet in the name of profit and greed. Your planet has been harmed in ways that can only be repaired by breaking out of her current 3rd dimensional shell and being birthed anew like the morning sun. This will happen within this calendar year of 2012, and we wish to have the relocation programs completed before these seismic events begin to grow powerful enough to cause widespread damage and flooding\u2026 Read more >\nPersonally, I take this message with certainty based on what I know on the information I\u2019ve been given. To me the message from the Ashtar Command (not Ashtar himself) is reasonably correct and true, and that there is no reason for any one at all to fear. However, I was quite surprised that some people are not too happy with this message and questioning its validity. I could expect this sort of reaction coming from people who do not know much on what is happening on Earth in this year 2012, but I surely am sad to see the reactions coming from people who claimed to be of light and in the light and doing lightwork and who called themselves Lightworkers:\n\u2026But, no, I do not expect a global event of the scale that Greg\u2019s sources have predicted, with all due respect to Greg. And, no, I don\u2019t intend to get indignant about it. \u2013 Steve Beckow (Mar 29 2012)\nSometimes a message comes through that you read and immediately after think, \u201cSay, What?\u201d \u201cWhat did they say?\u201d \u201cReally?\u201d That\u2019s what this Greg Giles Ashtar Command message was for me. \u2013 Kauilapele (Mar 29 2012)\nWell\u2026every one is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs and to react in any manner they deem fit, and this is termed as \u201cfreewill.\u201d What I feel is not loving and fair is to prejudge another in haste and impatience. Through the years I see and now know that messages from the Heavens come in scheduled time sequences and in a manner of need-to-know-basis. This is in fact the best and only way, considering the quite natural human\u2019s panicky character when receiving matters/news of truth. This is clearly proven in this instance.\nAs expected the Galactic Federation and the Ashtar Command have now come out with the much needed explanations to calm the situation lovingly and assuring all those concerned not to have any fear on the subject matter.\nHello dear ones, we would like to take this opportunity to speak with you today in a little more detail about the days ahead for you. We see that our message to you a few days ago concerning the temporary relocations of those living in areas that we believe are susceptible to flooding has caused quite a stir, and many are experiencing fear upon learning of this information. We wish to make ourselves as clear as we can and tell you that there is absolutely no reason to feel fear on any level or to be concerned at all for the safety of yourselves, your families, your friends and your neighbors. \u2013 The Ashtar Command (Apr 2 2012). Read more >\nThere will be much confusion about this process, and we would like to dispel as many unfounded rumors as we can at this time. What will not happen is a complete destruction of your world. One of the reasons we are here is to make sure of this. We have many years of experience in these related fields and we have many technologies that will help ease the shifting of tectonic plates and lessen their movements, allowing your people to proceed as smoothly as possible into your future. \u2013 The Galactic federation (Apr 2 2012) Read more >\nThere will be Earth changes as have been predicted, but we can assist Gaia in bringing such Earth changes about without the mass destruction that has been predicted by others. Many assume such perceived contradictions from ascended sources to be the fault of the various scribes [of such sources], and this is simply not so.\nWhile we are different and various ascended Organizations, we do have different theories as to how events are going to play out on Earth as indeed, individuality is still retained in the higher realms [to an extent] and different opinions on things are still sustained, while recognizing the aspect of the One that we truly all are past such perceived differences in opinions.\nThere are Lighted souls and Organizations assisting Earth at this time who do think and do foresee matters on Earth differently than other souls, and there are even ascended souls within the same Lighted organizations who possess differences in opinion on the coming Earth changes, among many other things.\nThere are again, higher dimensional souls apart of these organizations who do feel that when the Earth changes come, we should not use our technologies to mitigate the damage and rather bring you dear souls to the Inner Earth and to our star and Motherships while the cleansing takes place, and there are those of us who feel that the damage should be mitigated in favor of a collective experience and remembrance of the lower vibrations that have been manifested that would and will cause such Earth changes whether they are massive in damage or not, but either way one crucial factor remains in place and that is that each and every one of you will be kept safe and will not experience yourselves the severity of the Earth changes.\nWe would like to reiterate what we just said, because it is important in the context of how many will read this message in relation to the Earth changes: You will not be harmed in either scenario; the damage will either be mitigated yet still experienced on a smaller scale in favor of you all as collective experiencing your lower dimensional manifestations and the alleviation of such manifestations in a less severe way, or you will be allowed to come aboard our ships or visit the Inner Earth while such changes take place as needed.\nEither way, Earth changes are needed so that Gaia can shake off the density that has been manifested on Her surface for so very long, and upon the transmutation and shaking-off of the energies, you will indeed experience and inhabit the fifth dimensional Eden that Gaia has truly always been.\nWe would strongly recommend nobody on Earth worry themselves too much with the aspect of the Earth changes, as each and every factor is being discussed with this subject and with so many others, and we can feel what the majority on your world want in relation to the manifesting and possible mitigating of the Earth changes and we will act based on what you as a collective want.\nThat is the beauty of this entire event; while we are discussing such factors and what should be done amongst ourselves, upon the informing humanity you will still all be given the choices and presented the situation that we speak to you of in this message. \u2013 The Peiadian High Council (Apr 2 2012)\nWe need you to stop taking the shortcuts. We need you to channel your energies into the planet now. Plug into a NEW source. Unity consciousness. We need you to all work together WITHOUT your computers. WITHOUT the Internet. You can do this. You have the tools. You have the skills. You no longer need your training wheels. If more of you begin this practice, you will begin to lift one another higher and higher with your love vibrations. If you all took the time you spend surfing the Internet and reading article after article (that only LOWERS your vibrations) and put it into meditative time, we could definitely reach our goals \u2013 and yours \u2013 much MUCH faster. \u2013 the Pleiadian Ring of 500, on Sunday, April 1,\n\u2026and the latest UPDATES\nFor the sake of clarity and so there are no misunderstandings, we say to you at this time that although there will be a few temporary relocations from areas that have shown themselves prone to flooding in your past, these events will not be of a nature that will necessitate any need to relocate all of you and will not result in the destruction of your cities and your world. We see these events as more of an inconvenience due to the fact that some of you will, as a precaution, be temporarily relocated. These events do not have to be any more than this, and we say to you at this time that there is no need to go into panic mode or to fear at all your days ahead. \u2013 Ashtar Command \u2013 Apr 4 2012\nGalactic Federation \u2013 Apr 21 2012\nThere is absolutely no reason to be nervous or fearful of the days ahead. There is absolutely nothing that we cannot handle together. When we share this kind of information with you we expect a certain level of fear to arise, but we also expect you to be able to handle this kind of matter and deal with it and make suitable choices that will lead you to the way you wish to experience your journey. What we do not want is any kind of panic at all, as this will not be conducive to a smooth and efficient procedure. Think back of your days in elementary school where you calmly and quietly practiced a fire drill over and over throughout the many grades. This is how we would like to proceed in the days ahead, and we do not say see any reason that the temporary relocations of certain areas around your world cannot proceed just like these fire drills you practiced so often as children. Read more >\nPerhaps even these explanations may not be quite enough to appease some people, as its natural of humans to accept or reject in accordance to their individual preference of sources of information. Well\u2026that said, I think in the end, one only needs to go within to seek what one needs to know\u2026as one already knows.\nTo revise Gandhi, \u201cBe the LIGHT you wish to see in the world.\u201d \u2026 Try to see the brighter side of things once in a while. As I said before, you ARE, after all, LIGHT workers. Are you not? \u2013 Pleiadian message (Apr 2 2012)\nUPDATE: Related Scientific Reports \u2013 June 25 2012\nRising sea level puts US Atlantic coast at risk: report\nTags: 2012, Ascension, Ashtar Command, Disclosure, Evacuation, Fear, Freer Spirit, Galactic Federation, Gregg Giles, Kauilapele, Panic, Pleaidian Ring of 500, Pleiadian High Council, Relocation, Seismic activity, Spirituality, Steve Bekow, Wes Annac\n2012 The Year of \u201cDiversion and Conquer\u201d\nSpecial Edition from The Masters\nFrom: bluestarspeaks.com\nMaster Kato (received by Celest) We as a collective have decided to ask Celestial to write our words for an important dissertation with you based on all that we are currently observing and hearing from all races on this planet. I had asked our old friend Blue Star the Pleiadian to not discuss this yearly overview this time as he normally does and to instead allow us to address this year\u2019s theme. He graciously consented which is why we are here this day to share this important information with you. Far too many Planetizens of all races are going to extremes in how they are coping with this year\u2019s anomalous nature. Truly good people here are aghast at how \u201cmainstream\u201d people are simply gorging themselves on their own ideas of a good life, even though it is all but an illusion. These people have poorly constructed visceral perceptions of what is really ongoing here, as well as what they force themselves to BELIEVE is going on here. These are the ones who can not and will not accept the truth of the situations of the real world. About 98% of them will pass over from mortality fighting the truth with their last breath of life. It would be bad enough if in fact these people were only hurting themselves. However, there is a whiplash effect that is impacting on the good people who are struggling to maintain their Spiritual stance while holding on to their beliefs, sometimes hanging on by only their fingertips.\nPlanetizens, I urge you to pay attention to what is really happening here! Yet again too many of you are fooling yourselves into believing that nothing is happening on the Earth Star planet the way it should. This translates into meaning that you believe nothing is happening the way YOU think it should. Again and again and again you have all been told that so much more is happening here than you can possibly conceive of. Celestial has told you, David has told you, Blue Star has told you, the God of this Universe has told you, how many more times do you need to hear this before you concede that it is? There is an \u201cinflammation\u201d ongoing here that is directly affecting your minds, your emotions and your beliefs. This was a planned invasive method to effectively keep the mainstream people regaling themselves with trivial pursuits and sinking more deeply into their own desired ignorance of all that is occurring here. Furthermore, this invasive process has been simultaneously attacking all of you who should know better than to accept the grossly manipulated and bastardized versions of truth that are assaulting you.\nThe very nano moment the demon riders discovered that their nefarious plans for humanity and for Terra had been disclosed to the public by the God of this Universe, (*Celest here, Master Kato is referring to the information God disclosed in The Code,) they immediately recreated situations for this year geared to bring down even the most stouthearted among you. Goodhearted people who are also Spiritual have a visible Achilles Heel. This is where your vulnerability lies. You want so desperately to see people change for the better that at times your desire is all-consuming. This causes a shattering effect within your shields because you are trying to change something that you CAN NOT. How many times must you be told, \u201cYou can only change what you can only change.\u201d To attempt to do otherwise places you in the unenviable and precarious situation of interfering in others\u2019 destinies. Obviously I am not speaking of Soul agreements made among you and others in your Cluster. During this present timeline in this year of 2012, trying to change others\u2019 beliefs is absolutely the LAST thing you should do. Karma is already quite busy enacting Karmic rewards and pursuing Karmic violators. I have stated before that you should forget about the chronological numbers of this year and focus instead on what it truly means. It is about EVENTS, not a 4 digit number! One of the events now taking place here is about the old tried and true method the riders have of \u201cdiversion and conquer.\u201d This is but another devious example of history repeating itself. The riders have used this technique quite successfully for as long as they have been on this planet.\nIt has become more simplified for them now because they have this vast field of greedy and willing human counterparts to assist them. Spiritual Planetizens are USUALLY better able to tell when diversions are cast in front of them. This has proven to be quite literally a Godsend when these types of people here immediately KNOW to maintain their clarity. They are watchful when any change of focus on something suddenly alters into something else that simply is not in anyone\u2019s best interests. However, this chronological year of 2012 which is simply the forerunner for the next 100 years of great change, has caused many people of all races to be brainwashed into believing the unbelievable. It is not always as easy for them to see through these illusions as it once was. I ask you all to imagine for a moment that you are standing outside in the middle of a monsoon. For those of you who have never witnessed the monsoonal times, think of it as the absolute heaviest rainstorm you can possibly imagine. The rain is so heavy and is so uncompromising that it is hard for you to catch your breath. Because of the steadfast conditions you are in the midst of, it is very difficult for you to see and ultimately you find yourself feeling quite miserable.\nThis is what is happening here all over the planet. But it is not monsoonal conditions that are affecting you. At least\u2026 not yet. What I have asked you to visualize is actually occurring in the forms of millions of dark energy streamers swarming all over Terra. It is all hell let loose! These streamers are of the greatest proportions of malefic energies ever to inundate the Earth Star planet. They are also part of diversionary tactics. Their intent is to pummel the clarity and determination of the minds and Souls of Spiritual people while further decimating and befouling the minds, attitudes and desires of mainstream people of all races. This causes these types of people, the mainstream ones, to fall more deeply into their already finely honed desires to follow the trail of the illusions set forth by the Illuminati. Planetizens take heed: all of you must stop wallowing in \u201cwhat could have been\u201d and accept the fact that humanity has been severely compromised. More so now than at any other time. Stop expecting others to suddenly wakeup and smell the stench that the riders always leave in their wake. Stop wailing and groaning and feeling as though you could do more on your part to open the eyes of the unilluminated!\nAccept the incontrovertible fact that people only see WHAT they want to WHEN they want to. Also come into a more evolved state of awareness that you too are being tested. Are you putting your beliefs into action or are they merely lying around and beginning to decompose through non-use? Are you able to see the truth of the matter through the streamer storms? Are you able to accept the fact that it IS difficult to always see clearly when the forest and the trees all look alike? Can you yet understand that the millions and millions of people here of all races are too afraid to believe truth; therefore they unconsciously feel that they must accept the illusions of truth? They do so because they are too afraid NOT to. Do you understand that believing truth has its consequences just as not believing truth has? If you believe in truth and follow the path of truth it can be a very lonely life here on this particular planet. It also means that when you see and hear of so many of your fellow human beings still living decadent lifestyles and purchasing the most unimaginable toys as a means of reinforcing their illusions, you MUST learn to deal with it! Those who do not listen and learn to deal with these unhealthy situations will without doubt stumble and fall themselves. This would be the ultimate tragedy.\nA stumble may start with sheer disgust at what you witness; it may become an active dislike for those people who follow illusions. A stumble may take on new dimensions of your heretofore lack of prejudice and CAUSE you to become all that you detest. Do you see? A stumble is merely a precursor to the further fall of the human races. What you are learning about this day also includes how humanity is becoming more and more divided among itself. These dark streamers of which I speak also foster erotica, bias, unhappiness, greed, lack of trust, discontent, Spiritual-mental and physical abuse, uncertainty and devious agendas. Here however is the other side of the coin: thanks to the magnanimous gesture of the Creator and the Creation processing, it has been decreed that this year and continuing on for the next 100 years, not a day shall pass without the dark illusions and the very dark human counterparts being revealed for all to see. YES, this is a worldwide event! Just because you may not hear or witness the truth being revealed for instance in Tunisia, does not mean that the people living there are unaware of it.\nIf you live in Chicago you are well aware of what is going on in your neighborhood; you learn who is doing what to whom and then the real tests begin. Regardless of where you live, MUCH is happening right under your noses. Planetizens, the tests are whether or not you will rise to the occasion and allow those people to fall who are already exhibiting clear-cut signs of hate, jealousy, discontent erupting into rage and everything else that is unhealthy and unjust, or will you rush in where even Angels refuse to go and try to save people from themselves. Saving people from themselves is not your responsibility. All things considered, I would have to suggest to you that you have enough to do just holding on to your sanity and your OWN Soul. Love your fellow humans enough to let them fall. You do not know when someone else may love you enough to do it for YOU.\nObviously if you happen to be witnessing a brutal act being directed at an innocent person, if you can stop it without causing undue harm to yourself, that is another story. I would like to think you are all wise enough to understand this basic tenet of \u201cto serve and protect.\u201d Soul Clusters are now receiving the long sought ringing of the bell which summons them to assist all the good people here that they can. I said \u201cgood.\u201d We are all watching those who are helping others and those who could but do not. Karma! Karma occurs throughout your immortal time as Soul. You would be wise to remember that. We are not the only ones watching. The demon riders are now chortling at the gross lack of caring for others that is now reaching an unheard of apex, a crescendo of sorts. This Planetizens, is part of the Illuminati\u2019s \u201cconquer methodology.\u201d Who do you think implants and intones fear-ridden messages into your minds? Who you think is encouraging all those people who follow illusions to continue to do so? Who do you think implores people who are USUALLY good people, to distance themselves from those in need and from those who could strengthen the waffling peoples\u2019 beliefs? Living by example and teaching by example are primary methods of bolstering the confidence of those who waffle.\nYou are bearing witness to the \u201ctime of the great fall\u201d whether you want to or not. It is what it is. If your mind can not be conquered than YOU can not be. As for the others in mainstream life\u2026. they are hiding in the darkest recess of their minds but the streamers and the riders know exactly where they are and WHO they are. Now Planetizens as I take my leave this day, I ask you to simply accept what you must and still continue on fighting the good fight. We are making our presences known throughout this world. We are revealing ourselves to many, many of you. Some of you know us immediately while it will take a bit of time for others to have this recognition.\nBe aware however that many more diversions will be presented to all people of all races. Know them when you see them and act accordingly. In this manner you will not fall, nor will you fail yourself or fail those who love you best.

        "raw_content": "Toll manufacturing creates a fixed establishment in Poland\nA Polish court (i.e. the Administrative Court of Warsaw) ruled in one of its recent judgments toll manufacturing to create a fixed establishment for VAT in Poland.\nA Finnish manufacturer of boats intended to extend its business activities to Poland. Before it started conducting business in Poland, it applied for a ruling to the Polish Ministry of Finance.\nIn its request for a ruling, the Finnish company advised that it intended to purchase parts and components needed for the production of the boats. The manufacturing process was envisaged to be outsourced to a Polish manufacturing company. Once the manufacturing process was completed, the boats were stored at the premises of the Polish manufacturer. The Finnish company intended to sell them to customers in Poland and elsewhere.\nThe Finnish company emphasized that the components and the boats remain in its ownership and that its right to dispose of the components/goods as an owner will not be transferred to anyone else throughout the whole manufacturing and storage process.\nThe Finnish company was of the opinion that it did not create a fixed establishment in Poland by reference to the above activity in Poland. Accordingly, it took the view that the services that it purchased from Polish suppliers (e.g. transport, translation work) would be subject to the Finnish reverse charge provisions (i.e. taxable at the main establishment in Finland).\nFurther, the Finnish company advised that based on the judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union (\u201cCJEU\u201d), a creation of a fixed establishment requires a sufficient degree of permanence, technical and human resources and that the activity to be carried out by this establishment is independent of the activity of the main establishment.\nOn the above basis, the Finnish entity was of the opinion that it did not satisfy the above conditions as (i) it did not intend to carry out the activities in Poland permanently, (ii) it did not have any own resources in Poland and that (iii) the resources used in Poland (i.e. machines, tools, employees) belong to the local manufacturer.\nJudgment of the administrative court\nTaking into consideration the above fact pattern, the court concurred with the ruling of the Ministry of Finance and ruled that Finnish company would conduct business activities in the territory of Poland which would have a sufficient degree of permanence. The main basis for the above decision was that in the view of the court, the involvement of own resources is not required for the purposes of creating a fixed establishment in the meaning of article 44 of the VAT Directive. Instead, the use of third party resources is sufficient to create a fixed establishment.\nFinally, the court indicated that a similar conclusion arises from the judgment of CJEU in Welmory (C-605/12), where the CJEU advised that whether a fixed establishment is created or not needs to be determined by the local courts.\nThe Ministry of Finance did not agree with the Finnish company\u2019s assessment and instead concluded that the business did have a fixed establishment in Poland. The question was subsequently referred to the Court.\nImpacts for businesses\nBusinesses using third-party resources in Poland (specifically businesses using Polish toll manufacturers) should review the nature of the used resources and the purpose for which these resources are used in order to establish whether they create a fixed establishment for VAT in Poland.\nIf you need further information or wish to discuss the case, you could contact also PwC indirect tax partners in Poland: Marcin Chomiuk (marcin.chomiuk@pl.pwc.com) and Tomasz Kassel (tomasz.kassel@pl.pwc.com).\nCategories: Tax Knowledge | Tags: Business, company, employees, establishment, European Union, Finland, judment, manufacturing, permanently, Poland | Permalink.",

        "raw_content": "By seanSeptember 27, 2018 News, SmartEnergy\nIt was a night to celebrate everything from downtown union headquarters that double as zero net energy buildings to residents lowering the carbon footprint of their sleepy rural and lakeshore houses. The fourth annual Governor\u2019s Energy Excellence Awards, held on September 5, was all about the transcendence of energy efficiency.\nThe event this year proved yet again that Michigan is a one-of-a-kind leader in the field of energy waste reduction, thanks to a diverse steering committee and nominees who come from all walks of life, yet share a commitment to energy efficiency.\nAnd as almost 150 people gathered at the Goei Center in Grand Rapids to celebrate the diverse, innovative work of the 21 nominees \u2014 and learn who would take an award home \u2014 many also felt the transcendence of leadership as they thanked Gov. Rick Snyder and his administration for their last year at the helm of the awards.\n\u201cFor four years, we\u2019ve enjoyed the support of this administration,\u201d said Mary Templeton, president and CEO of Michigan Saves. \u201cWe are so grateful to Governor Snyder and his team. Together, we helped create a deep tradition of celebrating energy waste reduction in the state of Michigan. Energy efficiency isn\u2019t a partisan issue, so we\u2019re also looking forward to working with the new administration, whomever may lead it.\u201d\nMajor General Michael Stone of the Michigan National Guard stands to receive his award for Innovator of the Year.\nWhile the nominees and winners celebrated their work and each other, they also shared their excitement. Major General Michael Stone, who took home the Innovator of the Year award for his work, said he was truly honored by the recognition.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very humbling,\u201d he said. \u201cIn the Army, it\u2019s a team sport, so it\u2019s almost kind of embarrassing for me to be nominated individually. I\u2019ve got this whole team of people behind me that help make this happen . . . I say this all the time \u2014 we\u2019ve got one of the most amazing environmental programs in the country in the Michigan National Guard.\u201d\nAttendees like Anne Armstrong Cusack \u2014 executive director of the Michigan Agency for Energy, which is a program sponsor \u2014 also felt inspired by the work of nominees like Major General Stone.\n\u201cThe Governor\u2019s Energy Excellence Awards prove that the Michigan spirit of innovation thrives in every corner of our great state,\u201d she said. \u201cThe awards celebrate the contributions businesses, homeowners and public entities have made in energy waste reduction, ensuring a secure and sustainable energy future for all Michiganders.\u201d\n\u201cEliminating energy waste is critical to achieving our goal of a \u2018no-regrets\u2019 energy future that is affordable, reliable, adaptable and protective of the environment,\u201d Armstrong Cusack added. \u201cAll Michiganders, from our low-income citizens to our largest corporations, have the tools to cut energy waste, and save money. It\u2019s the smart thing to do and it benefits everyone.\u201d\nThe Governor\u2019s Energy Excellence Awards left behind a clear message this year: energy efficiency knows no boundaries.\n\u201cSometimes these projects add up for our bottom lines, sometimes they\u2019re about safety and sometimes they\u2019re about principles and values,\u201d said Templeton. \u201cBut whatever the reason is, we are all making decisions now to lead to a better, more sustainable tomorrow for Michigan.\u201d\nView more event photos from the 2018 Governor\u2019s Energy Excellence Awards.",

Your best chances are probably in New York, New Jersey or Maryland.\nThose states are best at helping Americans move up the income ladder, both in absolute terms and relative to their peers, according to a groundbreaking new study from the Economic Mobility Project at the Pew Center on the States.***[Researchers] examined how each individual\u2019s earnings had changed exactly one decade after the initial income number was collected.\nAcross the country, the income of the typical American rose by about 17 percent in inflation-adjusted terms during that time. There was great variation among the states, though.\nIn a handful of states, including New York, Utah and Massachusetts, residents\u2019 incomes rose at least 20 percent over the course of a decade. On the other hand, in Alabama and South Carolina, average incomes rose only 12 percent after adjusting for inflation.***For example, a person who started out in the 20th percentile would have to climb to at least the 30th percentile after a decade in order to be considered \u201cupwardly mobile\u201d in this study.\nAcross the country, about a third of Americans who started in the bottom half in income were able to move up that much.\nAt the more upwardly mobile end, in Connecticut, 40 percent of the state\u2019s residents who started in the bottom half moved up at least 10 percentiles over the course of a decade.\nAt the other extreme, in North and South Carolina only about a quarter \u2014 26 percent \u2014 of people who started at the bottom were able to lift themselves up that much.\nThe Executive Summary of the Pew State Mobility Report is available.",

        "raw_content": "Colombia Launches Partnership to Protect Amazon Rainforest from Deforestation\nThe Tropical Forest Alliance 2020, an initiative hosted by the World Economic Forum, is joining forces with the Government of Colombia to launch a multistakeholder platform of businesses, civil society organizations and donor agencies to protect over 60 million hectares of Amazon rainforest within its borders from commodity-driven deforestation.\nThe platform, launched today, is called the TFA 2020 Colombia Alliance and follows the government\u2019s target to have zero net deforestation in the Amazon by 2020.\nIt will initially cover palm oil and is expected to extend to other major commodity-driven causes of deforestation, including beef, dairy and timber. It will follow principles laid out in TFA 2020\u2019s Commodities and Forests Agenda 2020, which outlines strategies to address deforestation \u2013 a major driver of pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss. Colombia is home to one of the most biologically diverse ecosystems on Earth, home to about 10% of the world\u2019s species, yet its tropical forests are under threat.\nIt is supported by a range of stakeholders:\nBusinesses include dairy company Alqueria, retailer Grupo Exito, agricultural firm Poligrow, consumer goods company Unilever, and chemicals and agricultural products company Yara International.\nDonor countries and organizations include the governments of Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, the United Kingdom, USAID and the World Bank.\nNGOs and civil society organizations include Climate Focus, Earth Innovation Institute, Fondo Acci\u00f3n, Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), The Nature Conservancy, Proforest, Solidaridad, the South Pole Group, the Wildlife Conservation Society and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).\n\u201cThe TFA 2020 Colombia Alliance will be a platform to join forces towards sustainable agricultural production free of deforestation,\u201d said Colombia\u2019s Minister of Environment and Sustainable Development, Luis Gilberto Murillo. \u201cThe signature of the Palm Oil Zero Deforestation Agreement represents a key effort in bringing down international commitments to the Colombian context, and in employing our National Forest and Carbon Monitoring System from IDEAM as a catalytic tool to identify and prevent deforestation in the production and supply of palm oil in Colombia. We are pleased to have a critical mass or companies and organizations joining these efforts.\u201d\nVidar Helgesen, Norway\u2019s Minister of Climate and Environment, said: \u201cColombia is at the forefront, and is becoming one of the world leaders on forest preservation and restoration. I commend Colombia for being the first country in Latin-America to join the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020. We are very happy to be taking part in today\u2019s launch of a national coalition of public and private partners committed to promoting sustainable agriculture and zero deforestation supply chains in Colombia.\u201d\nRetailer Grupo \u00c9xito was the first company in Colombia to become a TFA 2020 global partner in 2014. Since then, the company have been working on several activities to promote a more sustainable production in Colombia of beef and palm oil, as well to promote reforestation and sustainable gardens in urban areas.\n\u201cThe launch of the TFA 2020 Colombia Alliance is important as a strengthening mechanism for joint action in Colombia to reach our deforestation goals,\u201d said Mariana Villamizar, Director of Public Relations at Grupo \u00c9xito.\nRelated Topics:ColombiaDeforestationEconomicsEnvironment\nChampions of the Earth: Inspirational environmental leaders from Chile, China and United States\nSustainable farming systems in Spain, China and Korea receive global recognition",

        "raw_content": "Harry Potter Heaven: Warner Brothers Studio Tour Is a London Must\nSubmitted by Roberta B on Sat, 08/04/2018 - 1:00pm\nWarner Bros. Studio Tour London \u2013 The Making of Harry Potter, UK\nMost American Potter fans know that Universal Studios has created a little piece of Hogwarts heaven in two locations\u2014The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Hollywood and at Universal Studios Orlando\u2014but it should come as no surprise that the true center of the Potter universe is in London, England, where all of Harry\u2019s adventures began. Apart from all of the real life British places a muggle might want to snap a photo (e.g. Kings Cross Station for platform 9 3/4, which British Rail good naturedly erected a few years back), the true wizard Mecca is Warner Brothers Studio Tour London \u2013 The Making of Harry Potter, housed at the film studio that was Harry's world for the decade or so that the films were in production. Fans of wizardry and magic can walk in the very footsteps of their heroes at the Warner Bros Tour.\nAlthough the eight films based on J K Rowling books appear to have been shot at a variety of locales, they were in fact almost entirely filmed at this one studio lot, where every location described in the books was painstakingly created in almost obsessive detail. Knowing that they were committing to an unusually long haul of filming, the producers put in an unusual amount of effort to build the world of Potter, from Harry's home on Privet Drive, to Hogwarts Castle, to Diagonal Alley. When the decade of filming ended, Warner Brothers decided, rather than dismantling the marvelous land of make-believe, to give it an afterlife as a tourist destination. And the tourists haven\u2019t needed any prodding; from the day the studio tour opened in the summer of 2013, tickets have sold out daily, usually many months in advance.\nMy family got our summer plans in order this year with enough notice to successfully schedule tickets and so can at last report on what's so special about the London Harry Potter experience. For starters, in spite of its name, the studio is not in fact in London but in Watford, about 20 miles to the north and a commuter train ride away from the city. I'll explain the intricacies of getting there below-- suffice it to say that the day you go on this tour, don't plan on doing much else. Getting there takes a little work, and once inside you will want to spend at least 3 hours\u2014likely closer to 4 or 5. Photo ops are voluminous, and oohs and ahs at least double that.\nThe experience is, as the name implies, a tour, but mostly a self-guided one. It is, if you like, something akin to the most interesting museum you could ever take your kids to. The path leads in one direction through one sound stage after another, each one a familiar room or location from Harry\u2019s adventures, decorated with props and mannequins wearing original costumes. Several of the exhibits are interactive\u2014guests can make the magical appliances at the Weasleys\u2019 Burrow work, mix potions in Snape\u2019s laboratory, summon broomsticks, and practice spells\u2014and all beg photos, so bring a back-up battery!\nEvery window is worth looking in on Diagon Alley.\nTruth be told my son was doubtful going in, because\u2014as a SoCal boy spoiled by Universal's Wizarding World\u2014be couldn\u2019t wrap his mind around how this experience could be fun without rides. Five hours and several Instagram posts later, his mind was fully wrapped. Walking through the real Great Hall, meandering down the real Diagon Alley, running down the real bridge that Professor McGonagall told Seamus to blow up\u2014 these are things that don\u2019t need a roller coaster to make them fun. We also walked through the forest, interacted with a robotic Hippogriff, prowled around the house at Privet Drive, caught the Knight bus, and rode the Hogwarts Express (with a little help from some movie magic).\nOther highlights include exhibits that demonstrate a variety of special effects, many of which I would never have guessed (no spoilers offered!), and video interviews with actors, designers, directors, producers, etc... Particularly impressive is the enormous scale model of Hogwarts, and the intricate ways it was filmed to look real.\nThe Great Hall is both familiar and awesome. Photo by Karen Roe/CC BY 2.0\nAbout halfway through the tour is a cafeteria serving classic British and wizard fare, though picnic lunches from outside are also welcome on the green spots of Privet Drive. Butter beer is probably the most popular item on the menu (though truth be told it doesn\u2019t fully measure up to the Wizarding World version at Universal).\nSince this studio was created as a place of work and not a source of amusement, it was not placed in the heart of anything, so don't expect to find much in the way of restaurants, hotels, or anything else to do in the immediate area. Watford itself is a fairly far-flung suburb, and the Studio Tour location is in the far outskirts of that suburb. Many people opt to take a charter bus directly to the tour from central London. This method may be the simpler but not the most economic approach. If you aren\u2019t intimidated by public transport, regular commuter trains run from Euston Station (accessible via the Victoria and Northern underground lines), and at Watford Junction a dedicated Potter bus runs directly to the studio tour for about \u00a32 each way. If you have an Oyster card for travel around London, you can even pay the train portion using that, rather than buy a special train ticket. Insider tip: if you go this route, do check the commuter train times and catch the shorter, direct train to Watford Junction; the slow train takes literally twice as long.\nEveryone wants to see the cupboard under the stairs.\nWarner Brothers' Making of Harry Potter tour is an outing for serious Potter fans; it could be downright dull to someone who'd never seen the films, but for anyone who knows and loves the movies it's definitely a must-see. If your child dreams of chocolate frogs, plays fantasy quidditch, or has ever uttered the words Expecto Patronum, you must not visit England without scheduling a day at the Warner Brothers Studio Tour.\nTickets for The Making of Harry Potter cost about $50 for adults and $40 for kids (under 5 gets in free), depending on exchange rates. But making your child's every Hogwarts dream come true? Priceless.\nAll photos by author unless otherwise noted\nLeavesden 51\u00b0 41' 25.4868\" N, 0\u00b0 25' 3.288\" W",

        "raw_content": "The next generation of gaming: is it worth a gamble?\nby Roger Montgomery May 30, 2018, 10:00 am\nKey statistics: ASX: ALL\nAristocrat\u2019s advantage\nEveryone loves a growing industry and with a 14% compound annual growth rate \u2013 online gaming certainly fits the bill.\nHow can a company gain a sustainable competitive advantage in this industry?\nOne stock which we believe has achieved an advantage is Aristocrat Leisure (ASX: ALL). Aristocrat Leisure is the largest poker machine manufacturer in Australia and continues to grow its business in the Americas, which now provides more than half its revenue.\nWhile the core of Aristocrat\u2019s business is land-based slot machines, the company also has a fast-growing online social gaming business.\nAfter recently buying social gaming company Plarium for $US550 million and Big Fish Games for $US990 million, they have brought Aristocrat to 12.4% of global social casino market share; it is now the second largest player in this space.\nAt first glance, this scale isn\u2019t an immediately obvious competitive advantage. But some context \u2013 the app store was first opened in July 2008, there were only 800 apps by the end of that year, growing to 350,000 in 2011. Since then, the numbers have rapidly increased to 2.8 million in January 2017. 3\nGoogle Play Store is similar, this opened December 2009 with 100,000 apps by the end of the year, it had 400,000 in 2011 and now has over 3.5 million.\nAlong with the growth in available apps \u2013 the cost of customer acquisition has crept up. This has happened because the channels for customer acquisition are incredibly limited, the key players being only Facebook, Apple\u2019s IOS platform, the Google\u2019s Android platform play store.\nSignificant marketing budgets are now required to stand out on these platforms meaning economies of scale (which Aristocrat now has) has become increasingly important.\nFurther to scale, in social casino, Aristocrat has been able to leverage its established demand side brand advantage to capture existing land-based game players.\nWhilst this is a relatively new and still fast-growing industry \u2013 Aristocrat has positioned itself strongly and is emerging as a market leader. We saw further evidence of this with the clear market share gains Aristocrat achieved in the last quarter.\nIn the 2017 financial year Aristocrat Leisure delivered revenue of $2,453.8 million and net profit after tax of $495.1 million. This was a 15.3% and 41.3% increase, respectively, on the previous year\u2019s result.\nGoldman Sachs estimates that the game segment, which the recent acquisitions of Big Fish and Plarium give the company exposure to, has an addressable market of approximately $US22 billion per annum at present.\nSo whilst the initial barriers to entry may have made it anyone\u2019s game in the 2000\u2019s \u2013 the landscape has moved on and clear market leaders are now emerging.\nThe Montgomery Funds own shares in Aristocrat\nPrevious Story Will Kohab make it easier to co-own property?\nNext Story What to consider when investing in international markets",

To only come to realize when you see them that the person you connected to on so many levels is no longer there.\nAll you think about is the little things that you loved about them, and their little quirks that made them so special. You remember the way they would move when it came to certain things. You knew what would make them laugh and smile on their good days and bad days. That a pack of gummies and some Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter cups, with extra peanut butter, smeared on top, was their guilty snack pleasure. Going to the store to buy the biggest bag or Jolly Ranchers only to pick out the Watermelon ones because that\u2019s their favorite.\nWhen I think back to a particular person so many emotions, thoughts, feelings, and memories come flooding back into my mind that it\u2019s very overwhelming at times. It feels as if I\u2019m being pulled like a Stretch Armstong Doll, and wondering if one little jerk of something will just break me. I like the memories, and I would never trade them for anything in the universe.\nSometimes, it gets too be too much.\nEven if I can still see this person, I know it\u2019s not the same one I once felt was my person. I was just meant to click with on some level isn\u2019t the person I pass by without speaking a word.\nHe was the Groot to my Rocket. The Steve to my Roger. The Brian to my Stewie. He was my personal superhero that flew into my life unexpectedly to save me in ways I didn\u2019t even realize I needed saving.\nMost importantly, he was my best friend.\nNow he\u2019s just a memory. I have to pretend when I pass him at work that nothing between us ever existed. To act like it never mattered, but when in reality, it meant absolutely everything to me. Those memories are ones I will hold on to for the rest of my life. With the smallest reminder, some memory will come rushing back. I don\u2019t even eat Butterfingers, Sun Flower Seeds, and Butterfinger Blizzards because even though I\u2019ve enjoyed them my whole life they have a much bigger meaning since I met him.\nI just don\u2019t understand how someone that impacts your life, and changes everything for you is just meant to be there one minute, but not the next. How is that fair? What\u2019s the purpose of it?\nI know people come into our lives for certain reasons, but how long do you have to carry the pain of losing them? It\u2019s not an easy burden to bear. It probably doesn\u2019t help having to see him every day at work, and reliving the loss of the incredible connection we had.\nI know the person is always there when I look at the moon, and that\u2019s what helps me get through each day. The person that once believed in me, and helped me find the strength inside myself is still up there shining down on me.\nThe person may leave, but the memories don\u2019t. I believe that the person you once knew is always there with you in some way, shape, or form. That\u2019s where the strength of moving on comes from. You never fully lose a person, only in a physical way, but never in a spiritual way.\nI\u2019ll love you with the deepest love forever, and you will continue to brighten my darkest skies. You saved me, and you\u2019ve been worth every up and down on this emotional rollercoaster. Thank you for the fantastic memories and first-time experiences. You brought me to life. You helped me to stop hiding the person I am, and taught me so many things that I can carry on in all my years to come. You\u2019ll always be the moon to my life. I would never trade one second I had with you to spend with anyone else. I\u2019ll remember you now and until the end of time. Groot bye for now. I\u2019ll wish on every star in the galaxy that your just happy with any adventure you take in life.\n\u201cThere was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to the star, \u2018Consume me.\u2019\u201d- Virginia Woolf, The Waves Previous\nDay 22: First Quarter Next\nOoo have one of these! Luckily I never saw him again after that final good bye at the airport but it doesn\u2019t stop me from thinking about him. Sometimes every day and sometimes not so much. Can\u2019t listen to David Gray or eat smarties without drifting. I still spritz the same fragrance he gave me our first Xmas and I still try to be the woman he always believed I could be. Maybe I wanted to love him more than he ever loved me. Maybe he loved me more than I would ever know. But I am married now to someone else and creating a new life with someone else. He will just always be\u2026 my first taste of life.\nI love everything you just said!! He\u2019s actually standing 10 feet away from me, and I can\u2019t even go stand with my other friends because he\u2019s there. I actually saw David Gray the past summer, and smarties are a great cure to anything! Thank you so much for your insight! This was probably one of my harder post so I greatly appreciate advice!! I\u2019m glad you found the right one for yourself! \ud83d\ude42\nFeel free to email me when ever you need to talk. Cpasquelene@gmail.com xxx",

        "title": "Weekend of July 14th Box Office Report | MovieBabble",
        "raw_content": "This past weekend was another hectic week at the movies. In total, over $130 million was spent on just the top five movies at the box office. But how exactly did the July 14th box office sift out? Let\u2019s take a look:\n#5: The Big Sick \u2013 $7.6 Million\nAfter receiving serious buzz on the independent circuit, The Big Sick slowly began to roll out into more theaters. This past weekend saw the film\u2019s theater count jump up by 2,271 theaters. Obviously, the film\u2019s revenue increased as well, jumping 112.5% from the previous week. Even more impressively, The Big Sick knocked Wonder Woman out of the top five despite the film holding better than any other superhero movie in the past fifteen years.\nIf nothing else, The Big Sick shows that independent movies that receive overwhelmingly positive praise will be sought out by moviegoers. For those trying to break into the movie industry, this is a very positive sign.\nThe Big Sick may be the best feel-good story in the July 14th box office report.\n#4: Baby Driver \u2013 $8.75 Million\nSimilar to The Big Sick, Baby Driver is another sign that people will go to see original properties if done correctly.\nFalling by only 32.7% in its third weekend, the film has had serious holding power from week to week. For your information, the average drop in a weekend for a film in recent years is about 50%.\nIn its entire theatrical run, Baby Driver has grossed approximately $96 million worldwide. Compared to its estimated $34 million production budget, the film is squarely in the black and is also now director Edgar Wright\u2018s high grossing film ever. While his other films definitely deserved more money than they earned, it\u2019s very nice to see one of our best directors be acclaimed by not only critics, but also fans. It\u2019s another welcomed surprise to the July 14th box office report.\nimage via Screen Rant\n#3: Despicable Me 3 \u2013 $18.95 Million\nPeople still love those gibberish-talking Minions.\nOn last week\u2019s box office report, I made the claim that people may be suffering from Minions fatigue following a serious drop in Despicable Me 3\u2018s second weekend. However, the animated film rebounded this past weekend, dropping only 43.6% in its third weekend. Although the jury is still out about the franchise\u2019s overall pull with general audiences, this weekend showed that its core fans will continue to show up and see the movie.\nThe film has also grossed approximately $431 million overseas, earning well over $600 million worldwide so far. Similar to the Transformers franchise, the Despicable Me franchise has found a huge audience in overseas markets.\nConsidering that the film only had an $80 million production budget, maybe all that talk of fatigue can be put to bed.\n#2: Spider-Man: Homecoming \u2013 $45.2 Million\nDespite a 61.4% drop in its second weekend, Spider-Man: Homecoming continues to rake in the dough.\nWhen a film opens as high as Homecoming did in its opening weekend, a higher drop is certainly more palpable, and more realistic. When combined with very positive review froms fans and critics alike, the newest version of the webslinger will most likely have solid legs at the box office for weeks to come.\nIn total, Homecoming has grossed almost $470 million worldwide. To sweeten the pot even further for Marvel and the MCU, the film hasn\u2019t even premiered in China or Japan yet. Considering that those countries are two of the biggest international markets, the film may still have an outside shot at surpassing the $1 billion mark in weeks to come.\n#1: War for the Planet of the Apes \u2013 $56.5 Million\nApes. Together. Rich.\nWar for the Planet of the Apes is the third leg of quite possibly one of the best trilogies ever made. However, the film took a step back at the box office, performing closer to Rise of the Planet of the Apes than Dawn of the Planet of the Apes with its $56.5 million opening weekend. Although it shouldn\u2019t have any trouble recouping its entire prouduction budget, there are concerns with how the movie will perform over the course of the rest of its theatrical run.\nWar for the Planet of the Apes is very dark, introspective meditation on the horrors of war and humanity. Is it very rewatchable? Not necessarily. Although the CGI for the film is unbelievably impressive, I can\u2019t see too many people rushing out to the theaters to continue to see this film over and over again. While it\u2019s a great movie, it\u2019s week to week performance may suffer because of its darker tone.\nAs a note, the other major release of the weekend, Wish Upon, grossed a mere $5.57 million, finishing at 7th at the box office. It might have helped if Broad Green Pictures had produced a better film\u2026\nThanks for reading! What are your thoughts on the July 14th box office report?

        "title": "First Frankenstein Movie Gets Restored, Watch It Free on Youtube",
        "raw_content": "First Frankenstein Movie Gets Restored, Watch It Free on Youtube\nThe first adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has been restored by the Library of Congress. The movie was filmed and released in 1910 under the direction of Searle Dawley for the Edison Manufacturing Company. James Whale's 1931 version Mary Shelley's iconic novel is the most famous, but it is not the first. The title card for Dawley's 1910 version calls it a \"liberal adaptation,\" and a lot of work had to be done to get it cleaned up and looking as great as it does now.\nThe Library of Congress recently released their restored version of Searle Dawley's Frankenstein online, noting that the movie itself isn't that rare. Instead, Wendi Maloney, who wrote the blog post for the Library of Congress notes that the story behind the restoration and how the Library obtained their copy is the more interesting aspect. As it turns out, the Library of Congress unknowingly purchased the 13-minute adaptation in 2014 when it was included with several other movies.\nThe Library of Congress later found out that they had a nitrate print of Frankenstein, which had previously been owned by Alois F. Dettlaff, who acquired it in the 1950s and brought it around to film festivals for decades, which is why it's not all that rare. However, he would never sell or allow for his version of the movie to be restored for unknown reasons. As soon as the Library of Congress figured out what they had, they immediately began the 2K restoration process, which is what you can check out below. However, it wasn't as simple as it sounds, and not only because the film is over 100-years old either.\nRelated: Javier Bardem Confirms Frankenstein Talks\nThe Edison Historic Site in East Orange, New Jersey ended up becoming a huge help during the process. Once the Library of Congress put the film into the reels, they realized that the title sequence was missing. The Edison Historic Site was able to provide the title sequence, which the Library was able to easily drop in and edit to their new 2K restoration. In addition the Library hired composer Donald Sosin to create a score that would have fit in with the time period of the first Frankenstein release. If you want the real effect, you can always just turn the volume down, but the score definitely adds to the experience.\nThe comments section for the Library of Congress blog is full of horror fans thanking the organization for their hard work to preserve the first Frankenstein adaptation. It's only 13 minutes long, and it's worth watching all the way through to get the full feeling that the Library of Congress was aiming for. As an added bonus, they have made it available to watch online for free for anybody that wants to check it out. You can watch the first adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein below, thanks to The Library of Congress.\nTopics: Frankenstein\nWatch Benedict Cumberbatch as Frankenstein's Monster in Theaters This October\nMary Shelley Trailer: Elle Fanning Is the Creator of Frankenstein\nDepp and Bardem Confirmed as Invisible Man and Frankenstein's Monster\nBride of Frankenstein Is Coming in 2019, Bill Condon Will Direct\nDark Universe Trailer Announces Universal's Rebooted Monsters Franchise\nJavier Bardem Wanted as Frankenstein in Universal's Monsters Universe",

Whether you are managing a solo enterprise or perhaps your business includes a cast of thousands, being an entrepreneur you are an invaluable focal point in your marketplace. A business owner provides essential services or goods to individuals who require them, adding towards the local economy and directing the path of business.\nI understand a guy who runs a little publishing concern from his home, and also the help to his community is manifold. Some time ago, he was motivated to bring non-fiction books and audio programs to business owners by creating a catalog. His merchandise is offered straight to consumers, to stores also to libraries. It looks like his profession has effects on the lives of thousands of people each year.\nTo begin his business, my pal converted the parlor of his old-fashioned farmhouse right into a office at home, and that he lined his garage with shelving for his company\u2019s inventory. Although it may seem that he\u2019s managing a one man show, the truth is very different.\nEach time he publishes another book title, a group in excess of 20 people is incited into action \u2013 everybody from editors and graphics individuals to marketing and advertising. They are not only residents, either, but folks on 3 continents \u2013 which is just his core team we are speaking about. This entrepreneur has other contractors he works together with on the more casual basis.\nEach one of these 20 approximately people is backed up by the publishing business operated by this entrepreneur, and every person in they also plays a role in the economy their current address.\nIf you wish to understand what is definitely an entrepreneur towards the community, we are able to indicate my pal the writer and draw a couple of conclusions.\nA business owner is really a servant leader. A business owner provides valuable products or services towards the community that will well be unavailable. A business owner brings value towards the marketplace, filling a niche that will well be vacant.\nA business owner is definitely an focal point in the city. Not just is definitely an entrepreneur self-sustaining, but additionally provides jobs. Even while a solo enterprise, the entrepreneur generates revenue and disburses it in to the local economy.\nA business owner provides vision, guiding the path of industry in the field. To be able to remain in business, a business owner should be consistently searching toward the long run and defining it through his product offering.\nWhat\u2019s a business owner towards the community?

        "title": "MR Online | The New-Style Mall and Liberal Populism",
        "raw_content": "Posted Dec 08, 2009 by Gregory W. Esteven\nThe Hammond Square Mall in Hammond, Louisiana, was a staple of my childhood. My family didn\u2019t go there all that often, but when my parents felt we needed to shop for things besides food, that\u2019s where we usually went (there weren\u2019t many options at the time in my hometown of Amite, Louisiana). I was always excited to go there because I didn\u2019t often get the chance to be in a large interior space; the relative complexity of it, with its escalators and DayGlo carpets, dazzled my childish, rural imagination.\nBy my teens, I hated going to the mall. Shopping in general turned me off and, at any rate, Hammond Square was in a state of decline. Back in the 70s, the mall had begun killing downtown,* but by that point the suburban-sprawl shopping experience was killing the classic mall. People around here were more likely to drive for miles in their SUVs, going from one free-standing store to the next, in order to satisfy their manufactured desire to consume. Eventually they demolished most of Hammond Square and built a new mall in its place.\nIn my view the new mall is more pernicious than the old. It could only have been dreamed up by a cruel and ironic mind. It is a Disney-like simulation of a downtown, a maze of little avenues complete with quaint street signs and imitation early-20th-century lamps. The streets are lined with chain stores whose edifices are made to suggest an earlier, simpler time.\nBut this is not the 1920s and the new mall is not downtown.\nIf I had to choose between these two evils, I would rather go to a classic mall. It is more honest. With the vulgar trappings of 70s and 80s consumerism, it openly admits the destructive side of the dialectic of capitalism, which devours even its earlier forms (the classic mall mercilessly undermines the small business world of downtown). The new style mall hides the violence, by adopting the guise of an earlier phase of capitalism, along with a nod to the style of community life that accompanied it.\nI also prefer the old-style mall because it is transitional in that it preserves at least some element of sociality and a vestige of the commons. For example, as depressing as it is to think of kids hanging out in a mall, at least it provided a public space for them to gather and socialize, considering that such spaces are sorely lacking in our society (a garish, commercialized space is better than nothing, I suppose). Kids could even sit around and talk without buying anything, if they did not want to or lacked funds. The new-style mall has eliminated such spaces entirely. It is composed of disconnected stores with no centralized areas. Hanging around in the fake avenues and parking lots of this monstrosity is considered loitering.\nThis is testament to the progressive elimination of the commons. Everything is owned by someone and we are not to forget it. In today\u2019s world, if you are not in a private residence, or in an automobile on your way to a private residence or someplace to spend money, you are engaging in suspicious behavior and are perhaps breaking the law. (Earlier this year I was told by a local cop, after being frisked in a public park, that my nighttime strolls down the streets of this city \u201clook suspicious\u201d and would likely prompt other police officers to stop me for questioning.) The point was driven home to me further, recently, when I heard an announcement on the radio warning parents not to let their kids loiter outside the mall because it is \u201cdangerous.\u201d Who knew?\nBut I digress. My nostalgia for the malls of yesteryear is not really a wish for their return. True, I have some nice mall-related childhood memories, but my ruminations on this topic result from a disgust for the status quo and the desire for a future that is different. I don\u2019t want a return to an earlier phase of capitalism any more than I want a return to feudalism and manorialism.\nYet it is precisely the mystique of such earlier phases \u2014 typified by the new-style mall that mimics the old downtown \u2014 that is at the heart of the ideological fantasies of both the left- and right-wing versions of today\u2019s liberal populism. Both dream of a return of the repressed (or more literally, the return of the surpassed). Left-wing populism maintains that we can go back to the \u201ccapitalism with a human face\u201d that reigned in the core states of the capitalist world system from the end of World Wart II to the 1970s; this is the dream of Keynesianism 2.0, of a new New Deal. Right-wing populism dreams of a return to a laissez-faire capitalist economy dominated by small businesses.\nThe fact is, though, that neither of these can be conjured up again. They have been superseded because of real contradictions and developments in the economic order. The economist Minqi Li has suggested that the conditions necessary for the class compromise embodied by the classic welfare state no longer exist. For example, the old class compromise only included workers in the wealthy core states; a contemporary compromise would need to include the workers of developing and transitional countries like India and China. This is not possible within the existing framework of capitalism as it would undermine the system itself. And as far as the right-wing populist dream is concerned, I can\u2019t even imagine how small government and free competition would allow mom-and-pop businesses to take the reins back from transnational corporations.\nBoth of these dreams are petty-bourgeois in nature, and I speak as a refugee from the dying petty-bourgeois class. We need a new dream that is based on our objective circumstances, the needs of the majority of the world\u2019s population, and a commitment to preserving the biosphere. Such a dream, of course, cannot be purchased at a mall, nor from your local mom-and-pop retailer! It must emerge from the struggle for an entirely new order.\n* Lest any locals read this and object, downtown Hammond has been greatly revitalized in recent years due to efforts by the city. Nevertheless, the decline of downtowns across the country remains a continuing fact of U.S. American life.\nGregory W.

        "raw_content": "Stockholm Take Two \u2013 The Boss of Sweden?\nLast week we scoured a concert series poster from Stockholm and came up with a Stevie Ray Vaughn tribute singer/player covering Stevie Ray\u2019s version of Jimi Hendrix\u2019s \u201cVoodoo Chile\u201d \u2013 a song that Jimi Hendrix himself played in Stockholm in 1969. This week, more covers by acts on this poster trace back to Bruce Springsteen in 1979.\nAbalone Dots is a trio of three Swedish women who play bluegrass and country tunes. Last year in a TV performance, the band covered Bruce Springsteen\u2019s \u201cThe River\u201d from his 1980 album of the same name. Abalone Dots delivered an abbreviated version, but they sang the lyrics straight up: getting Mary pregnant, working construction and all. Bravo ladies! The band has been a quartet at times, and if you\u2019d like to hear them get their bluegrass on, check out \u201cThe Ballad of Lee McKay\u201d.\nBelieve it or not, another artist on this same poster covered \u201cThe River\u201d on a TV show last year too! Micke Rickfors is The Boss\u2019 contemporary, born in December 1948. Though mostly a solo artist throughout his career, Rickfors was a member of The Hollies in the early \u201970\u2019s, replacing their original lead singer Allan Clarke. After you watch Micke perform another abbreviated version of \u201cThe River\u201d, you can check out his work with The Hollies on \u201cMagic Woman Touch\u201d.\nIt\u2019s not clear why the Swedes have such affection for \u201cThe River\u201d, but while the song never charted as a single in the U.S. it was the biggest hit up to that time for Bruce in both Sweden and Norway. Here is Bruce playing the whole song at the \u201cNo Nukes\u201d concert in 1979, a few months before the album was released. The Swedes leave out the break with perhaps the best line in the song, \u201cIs a dream a lie if it don\u2019t come true, or is it something worse \u2026\u201d\nPosted on August 10, 2014 by HarryDJ.\tThis entry was posted in Connections, Covers and tagged abalone dots, bluegrass, Bruce Springsteen, micke rickfors, music now & then, rock, sweden, The Hollies, video.

The term doujinshi is derived from doujin (\u540c\u4eba, literally \"same person\", used to refer to a person or persons with whom one shares a common goal or interest) and shi (\u8a8c, a suffix generally meaning \"periodical publication\"). doujinshi are part of a wider category of d\u014djin including, but not limited to, art collections, anime, hentai and games. Groups of doujinshi artists refer to themselves as a saakuru (\u30b5\u30fc\u30af\u30eb, circle). A number of such groups actually consist of a single artist: they are sometimes called kojin saakuru (\u500b\u4eba\u30b5\u30fc\u30af\u30eb, personal circles).\ndoujinshi are made by artists or writers who prefer to publish their own materials. Since the 1980s, the main method of distribution has been through regular doujinshi conventions, the largest of which is called Comiket (short for \"Comic Market\") held in the summer and winter in Tokyo's Big Sight. At the Convention, over 20 acres (81,000 m2) of doujinshi are bought, sold, and traded by attendees. doujinshi creators who based their materials on other creators' works normally publish in small numbers to maintain a low profile from litigation. This makes a talented creator's or circle's doujinshi a coveted commodity as only the fast or the lucky will be able to get them before they sell out.\nSource en.wikipedia.or...",

The energy sector is a substantial market for Indian Country, with DOE estimating that at least 10 percent of all energy resources in the United States are contained within tribal lands.\n\"The U.S. Department of Energy's new Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program represents a significant opportunity for Indian Country,\" stated Tina Danforth, President of Nafoa. \"Deploying $2 billion in loan guarantees will strengthen tribal economies through private sector investment in a wide range of energy projects and activities.\"\nTELGP Background\nThe program, which was created in 2005 but only recently received funding through the 2017 Omnibus Bill, is designed to catalyze sustained investment in tribal communities by allowing DOE to guarantee up to 90 percent of the unpaid principal and interest on any loans made to federally recognized tribes for energy development.\nUnder TELGP, a broad range of energy development activities are covered, from traditional fuel extraction to renewable energy projects, including but not limited to: electricity generation, transmission and distribution facilities; energy storage facilities; energy resource extraction, refining, or processing facilities; energy transportation facilities; district heating and cooling facilities; cogeneration facilities; and distributed energy project portfolios, including smaller distributed facilities.\nAccording to DOE, TELGP applications will be reviewed in two phases, with Part I focusing on the project description, development, structure, financing, and management. The due date for Part I of the application is September 19, 2018 . Following a favorable determination under Part I, DOE will invite successful applicants to submit Part II beginning on October 17, 2018. See the solicitation for more information.\nInterested applicants should contact the DOE Loan Programs Office by emailing TELGP@hq.doe.gov or calling (202) 586-1262 .\nIf you have any questions or comments, please contact Ryan Ward at ryan@nafoa.org or (202) 594-6593.\nTribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program Solicitation\nTitle XXVI of the Energy Policy Act of 1992\nConsolidated Appropriations Act of 2017",

        "raw_content": "Think yogurt is healthy? Better reconsider thanks to the amount of sugar in many supermarket varieties\nYogurt may seem like a pretty healthy choice but a new study reveals just how much sugar is lurking in those containers\nHalf of your recommended daily sugar intake could be lurking in a single yogurt cup, a recent study published in the British Medical Journal shows.Getty Images\nIs McDonald's new apple pie actually healthier?\nRestaurant gets lobsters stoned before killing them in the name of animal welfare\nYogurt can be a portable, protein-rich snack \u2014 but not so much when it\u2019s packed with more sugar than a cola. As a recent study published in the British Medical Journal shows, although many supermarket yogurts are presumably \u201chealthy,\u201d they contain \u201cwell above\u201d the recommended sugar limit.\nMore than half of an adult\u2019s recommended daily sugar intake, which is 30 grams according to the U.K.\u2019s National Health Service (NHS), could be lurking in a single yogurt cup.\nIn their analysis of roughly 900 yogurts available for sale at grocery stores in late 2016, researchers found organic varieties and products designed for children\u2019s lunch-boxes to be among the most sugar-laden.\nOrganic yogurts contained an average of 13.1 grams per 100 grams of total sugars; children\u2019s varieties had 10.8 grams, which is sweeter than 100 mL of Coca-Cola (10.6 grams of sugar).\n\u201cItems labelled \u2018organic\u2019 are often thought of as the \u2018healthiest\u2019 option, but they may be an unrecognized source of added sugars in many people\u2019s diets,\u201d lead author Bernadette Moore of the University of Leeds, told The Telegraph.\nScientists divided the yogurt samples into eight groups: children\u2019s, dairy alternatives (e.g. soy), desserts, drinks, flavoured, fruit, natural/Greek and organic. According to EU regulations, in order for a product to be labelled low sugar it must adhere to five grams of total sugars per 100 grams.\nJust two of 101 children\u2019s products were low in sugar. \u201cThis is \u2018concerning,\u2019 given the rise in childhood obesity and the prevalence of tooth decay among young children,\u201d the researchers said in a statement.\nThe daily sugar threshold is capped at 19 grams (or five sugar cubes) for children aged four to six and 24 grams (six sugar cubes) for children aged seven to 10, according to the NHS.\nAs The Telegraph reports, Public Health Liverpool previously found several major brands \u201ccontain the equivalent of almost five sugar cubes.\u201d For a child, eating just one yogurt cup as a snack could represent an entire day\u2019s worth of sugar.\nOverall, fewer than nine per cent of the samples were low sugar, the researchers said. Greek-style and natural (plain) yogurts proved to be the exception. Higher in protein and lower in carbohydrates, they had the least amount of sugar at five grams per 100 grams (most of which was lactose, a naturally-occurring sugar).\n\u201cWhile yogurt may be less of a concern than soft drinks and fruit juices, the chief sources of free sugars in both children and adults\u2019 diets, what is worrisome is that yogurt, as a perceived \u2018healthy food,\u2019 may be an unrecognized source of free and added sugars in the diet,\u201d the researchers wrote.",

        "raw_content": "The NFL Players Association is among those culpable for the NFL\u2019s ongoing domestic violence problem\nLast Saturday, the San Francisco 49ers cut Reuben Foster after he was arrested for domestic violence for the second time in a calendar year. The Washington NFL team picked him up off of waivers just two days later. The following Friday, a video emerged of Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt shoving and kicking a woman at a Cleveland hotel. The Chiefs released him the same day.\nFour years after TMZ released a video of then-Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice punching his then-fiancee unconscious and dragging her limp body out of an elevator in an Atlantic City casino, the NFL\u2019s mishandling of domestic violence has once again become front-page news.\n\u201cIt did not surprise me at all, because neither the league nor the players association has taken meaningful action to eradicate domestic violence from the NFL,\u201d Deborah Epstein, a professor of law and co-director of the Georgetown University Law Center\u2019s Domestic Violence Clinic, told ThinkProgress in an interview this week.\nWhile the league (Where are you hiding, Roger Goodell?) and team owners (What are you thinking, Dan Snyder?) have been the recipient of their fair share of much-deserved criticism for their actions \u2014 or, inactions, to be more precise \u2014 during this time, Epstein points out that there\u2019s another group that deserves further scrutiny: The NFL Players Association (NFLPA).\nFour years ago, in the wake of Rice\u2019s video going viral, the NFLPA created a commission on domestic violence. When Epstein was initially approached to join the group, she pressed the NFLPA leaders, \u201cIs this all just window dressing, or are you really serious about making a change?\u201d\nThey were adamant that the commission was not just for show. As NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith told USA TODAY Sports at the time, \u201cThis was designed to get it right.\u201d Epstein was initially thrilled to be a part of it.\n\u201cI thought, if we can do something about [domestic violence] in professional athletics, that will trickle down to other areas in our culture,\u201d Epstein said.\u201dI felt \u2014 in retrospect, naively \u2014 optimistic.\u201d\nThe NFL\u2019s Groundhog Day\nThe NFL has failed every single test on domestic violence.\nBut things didn\u2019t go as planned, and this summer, Epstein created shockwaves when she publicly quit the commission with an op-ed in the Washington Post, \u201cI\u2019m done helping the NFL Players Association pay lip service to domestic violence prevention.\u201d\nIn her op-ed, she revealed that the commission had worked with families of the players to create a list of recommendations that would help the players association support women and partners of NFL players to lessen the likelihood that they would be victimized by violence. The report was finished in 2016, and while Epstein can\u2019t offer specific details about the report\u2019s findings, owing to a confidentiality agreement she signed, she nevertheless found that it included concrete and implementable ideas to address the problem.\nAnd yet, in the two years since, the NFLPA hasn\u2019t enacted any of the suggestions. The completed report has gone ignored and untouched. And Epstein was left with the feeling that she had to stand up and be vocal about why she was resigning from the commission.\n\u201cI felt used,\u201d Epstein said.\nSusan Else, former president of the National Network to End Domestic Violence, resigned at the same time as Epstein. ThinkProgress has reached out to the NFLPA for comment, but has not heard back at the time of publication.\nEpstein says that it has been incredibly frustrating to watch the events of the last week. Knowing that the NFLPA has had the means at hand to choose a different path, she finds it difficult to take anything that league stakeholders have to say about change and accountability seriously. As she said in the Post: It\u2019s all just lip service.\n\u201cThe message they\u2019re sending is, \u2018Ignore our words and look at our actions,\u2019\u201d Epstein said. \u201cIf a player can be let go from one team because of domestic violence, and immediately picked up with another, the message is crystal clear: This behavior is not going to harm you. The words that you speak become irrelevant.\u201d\nUltimately, none of this is going away. While domestic violence is a major problem throughout society, working with partners of NFL players really taught Epstein that in the league, gender roles are stuck in the 1950s. Women are explicitly told that their job is to support a player, no matter what \u2014 their wants and needs always take precedence.\n\u201cIf you have a subculture where gender roles are so stark and so retrogressive, it seems much more likely that men are going to behave in ways that used to be condoned, including violence against women,\u201d Epstein said.\nEpstein hopes that the NFLPA uses the increased attention on domestic violence as an impetus to pick up the dormant report and start implementing real change. It won\u2019t be easy, instantaneous, or absolute, but its better than simply looking the other way.\n\u201cI think the events of the last week give them another chance,\u201d she said. \u201cThere are so many moments where they could decide that this is going to be the time where we\u2019re really going to make a difference.\u201d\n\u201cRay Rice was not a one-time thing, unfortunately. Take the opportunity now.\u201d",

The Homecoming kickoff event was held in the Student Union Memorial Center on Oct. 27.\n\u201cThe world revolves around engineering,\u201d UA President Dr. Robert C. Robbins said in remarks at his first Engineers Breakfast.\nKeynote speaker Andy Doraiswamy did not pursue a job or graduate school after getting his UA master\u2019s degree in materials science and engineering in 2003.\n\u201cI sold my car, rented a motorcycle and spent six months traveling throughout southeast Asia,\u201d he said. \u201cI really wanted to find myself, find my purpose.\u201d\nHe mountaineered in Nepal and visited remote villages, including one with a free eye surgery clinic. He saw up close how people in the country were going blind simply because of cataracts.\n\u201cI knew nothing about health care, but I knew this blindness could be prevented,\u201d said Doraiswamy, who volunteered at the clinic and found his calling.\nHe returned to the U.S. and earned a PhD in biomedical engineering from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, developed 3-D and rapid laser technologies, and founded San Francisco Bay Area startup Oculeve, which was later purchased by Allergan for $425 million. Now Doraiswamy advises early-stage health care companies and serves on the board of Surgical Eye Expeditions International.\nIn his campus address, he hailed recent advances in medical technology, particularly connected health, but had harsh words for the U.S. health care system, particularly its inefficiency and high cost.\nHealth care challenges present exciting opportunities for engineers, he said, predicting solutions will come in the form of new treatment technologies and wiser, more analytics- and values-driven decision-making for patient care and insurance coverage.\n2017 Honorees: Vision and Verve\nCollege of Engineering Dean Jeff Goldberg presented three awards on behalf of the College and the University of Arizona Alumni Foundation.\nAlan Boeckmann, BS 1973, electrical engineering\nAlan Boeckmann joined Fluor Corp., an engineering and construction firm specializing in large and complex international projects, just out of college and rose through the ranks to become its chairman and CEO. Company revenues topped $27 billion when he retired in 2012.\nBoeckmann serves on the boards of British Petroleum, Archer Daniels Midland and Sempra Energy and has served on many others. His weighty credentials and powerful posts belie humble beginnings and an abiding commitment to ethics in business.\nIn a note to the UA Alumni Association, the Bisbee, Arizona, native described how he enrolled at the UA in 1966 but dropped out due to a shortage of funds and focus.\n\u201cTwo years later, while working at the local telephone company as an installer, I reignited my desire to earn a BSEE degree,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI re-enrolled, moved into married housing \u2026 and began to work diligently to improve my GPA.\u201d\nAt Fluor, Boeckmann led global operations in several countries. He founded the Anti-Corruption Task Force of the World Economic Forum in 2004 to combat bribery and corruption in global commerce. His leadership in promoting international standards for business and engineering ethics earned Fluor numerous awards.\n\u201cWe honor Alan not only for his remarkable professional achievements, but for his ability to understand and operate in many different cultures, always in an ethical way,\u201d said Goldberg, thanking Boeckmann for his philanthropic support of the College and University, including serving on the College\u2019s Industry Partner Board.\nEngineering Student Council President Amy White also thanked Boeckmann, for his role in a company that heavily influenced her career path.\n\u201cOne of the most valuable and underrated abilities of an engineer is the power to inspire others,\u201d said White, a civil engineering senior. \u201cI was inspired to pursue a degree in engineering by my grandfather. When I was younger, he would tell me about the problems he solved, the people he worked with, and the opportunities he had, and I thought that was the coolest job in the whole world. He was a civil engineer for Fluor, back when it was still Fluor Daniel.\u201d\nMichael Slattery, BS 1988, aerospace and mechanical engineering\n\u201cI have had a passion for planes since I was a kid,\u201d said Michael Slattery, president of United Rotorcraft, a world leader in emergency medical air transport.\nThe Tucson native recalled his mother, who was in the audience with other family members, driving him to a now-defunct airport off West Prince Road in Tucson.\n\u201cShe would park at the end of the road so her 10-year-old son could watch a plane land every 10 minutes. That\u2019s unconditional love!\u201d\nSlattery became a licensed pilot and worked on major medical evacuation projects, including the Black Hawk Medevac, L-1011 Flying Hospital and S-70 Firehawk, and has served as a consultant to the aviation industry.\nPassing on his passion to students at the breakfast, he said, \u201cThe classes and technical proficiency are important, but having it right here in your heart to want to change people\u2019s lives -- that\u2019s what will make you a success.\u201d\nUnited Rotorcraft has supported team projects for the University of Arizona Engineering Design Program, and Slattery has served as a judge at Design Day.\nRyan Kanto, BS 2007, chemical engineering and engineering management\nRyan Kanto worked in the oil and gas industry, becoming a vice president of production at Rice Energy in 2011, the same year he completed an Ironman event. He ascended to two more VP posts at Rice before leaving the company in April 2017 to co-found, with his wife Sarah Kanto, Quantum Spirits distillery in Carnegie, Pennsylvania.\nThe startup draws on Kanto\u2019s chemical engineering and business acumen and 15 years of home-brewing experience. He describes himself as a \u201ctrained engineer instilled with a permanent sense of wonder\u201d and hopes to start producing Quantum\u2019s custom spirits in 2018. A founding member of the College of Engineering\u2019s Young Alumni Board, he will continue sharing career tips -- not to mention cocktail recipes -- with other Wildcats.\nMixers, Presentations and Tailgates\nLater that day, alumni and friends participated in departmental events. On Saturday, visitors at the College\u2019s tailgating tent watched the Homecoming Parade on the UA Mall before gathering in Arizona Stadium to cheer the Wildcats to a 58-37 victory over Washington State.",

        "raw_content": "The Pakistan-Kuwait relations\nThe Pakistan-Kuwait relations are brotherly, based on shared history, traditions and common culture. Both countries have always enjoyed their bilateral, friendly, trade and cultural ties with enormous respect of their commonality and cultural traditions. The bilateral relations exist both at the official-government level and at the peoples\u2019 level. Time has proved that both countries have stood for each other in their most difficult and testing times. Pakistan was among the first countries that sent troops to Kuwait during the Iraqi invasion in 1990. Nine Pakistani soldiers were martyred during mine clearing operations.\nKuwait also responded well to its friendly country and has been the first among countries that have ever extended generous help to Pakistan in difficult times. The Kuwait government donated generously to Pakistan during the deadly earthquake in 2005 and at the time of devastating floods in 2010. Kuwait has contributed almost $25 million to floods-affected people in Pakistan.\nAlmost 150,000 Pakistani expatriates in all fields are currently working and living in Kuwait. They remit around $750 million a year to Pakistan. This is one of the important foreign exchange sources for balancing the external accounts of the country. In addition to this, there are regular visits of Pakistani naval ships to Kuwait. Pakistan has also trained a number of naval officers of Kuwait in Pakistan. Both countries are part of a joint ministerial commission (JMC) \u2013 an active body extending its role towards further strengthening and extending their bilateral relations in all fields.\nHH the Amir of Kuwait Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah visited Pakistan in 2006. HH the Crown Price of Kuwait Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah visited Pakistan in 2013 and the Speaker of the National Assembly of Kuwait Marzouq Al-Ghanem and the Air Force Chief also visited in 2015.\nAlthough bilateral Pakistan-Kuwait political relations historically remain very strong, however their bilateral economic cooperation has not progressed much. There are several reasons which characterize the certain geopolitical, strategic and security obstacles. Bilateral trade volume between both countries almost touches $2.5 billion a year, though it is far from satisfactory relative to their size and composition of their domestic production and external trade volumes. Pakistan is largely importing crude oil from Kuwait and Kuwait mainly imports, fruits, vegetables, rice and cotton products.\nSuccessive Pakistani ambassadors have tried their best to further strengthen bilateral relations. The current Pakistani ambassador to Kuwait Mohammed Salam Khan, contrary to his predecessors, plays a very active and commendable role towards enhancing and strengthening bilateral trade and cultural relations. He has taken a number of initiatives during his short stay as ambassador of Pakistan in Kuwait. With his efforts, last year\u2019s Expo Karachi and investment conference saw the participation of a large number of Kuwaiti businessman and other trading groups.\nHe has taken a number of initiatives such as organizing a mango festival/exhibition. A large number of trade groups from Pakistan such as rice exporters, and chambers of commerce of Karachi and Sialkot, have also been invited to exchange their business interests with Kuwaiti counterparts. A wonderful gathering on the anniversary of Quaid-i-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the founder of the country, was organized at the Kuwait Teachers\u2019 Association. On the anniversary of the Peshwar tragedy, a dignified meeting was organized at the embassy premises.\nThe outgoing ambassador is largely supportive of cultural and other activities and plays an active role to represent his community. Recently, the embassy and the Kuwait National Council for Culture, Arts and Letters organized a wonderful musical event in which a very popular singer from Pakistan, Fariha Pervaiz, performed with her beautiful voice and mesmerizing performance, which captivated her audience.\nHardly any ambassador in the recent past in my memory of 35 years in Kuwait has played such an active role towards strengthening these cultural and trade ties in a very short span of time. The ambassadors are usually posted for fixed tenures of three or four years, extendable at the discretion of appointing authorities based on their performance. It is hearting for the Pakistani community to know that the ambassador is reaching his superannuation, which means his retirement.\nBy Javaid Ahmad",

        "raw_content": "https://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2014/08/140821-star-supernova-primordial-space-first-generation.html\nPhotograph by SDSS/NAOJ\nStar SDSS J0018-0939 is a small, second-generation star bearing the chemical imprint of one of the universe's first stars. Seen as white here, the star would appear orange to human eyes.\nScientists Find Remnants of One of Universe's Oldest Stars\u2014And It's Huge\nThe earliest stars may have been several hundred times as massive as the sun.\nAfter digging around in the light from an old, orange star, astronomers have found possible remnants of one of the universe's first stars: a giant that may have been more than 140 times as massive as the sun.\nThe finding, reported Thursday in the journal Science, marks the first time astronomers have made observations suggesting that such massive stars populated the early universe, despite decades of theories proposing that some of those first stars must have been huge.\nBillions of years ago, when that primordial star exploded in a spectacular supernova, it blasted its guts into space and seeded the cloud that eventually formed the orange star, which is now about 1,000 light-years from Earth.\nKnowing the mass of these first stars\u2014or the range of masses\u2014is crucial for understanding how quickly the lights turned on in the very early universe and shifted it from a dark, gassy place to one filled with nascent galaxies and stars.\n\"How the cosmic Dark Ages ended\u2014that really depends on the mass of the first stars,\" says University of Texas at Austin astrophysicist Volker Bromm, who calls the new findings \"an important data point.\"\nAncient Fingerprints\nThe universe's first stars were born several hundred million years after the big bang, Bromm says, when hydrogen, helium, and dark matter were mixed into a thin soup that flooded space. At that time, irregular clumps of dark matter began to collapse, creating dense mixtures of gases that eventually ignited and became stars, lighting the universe and bringing an end to what astronomers call the cosmic Dark Ages.\nMany of these first stars, called population III stars, were relatively small, several tens of times as massive as Earth's sun. But astronomers think that some must have been huge-hundreds of solar masses. Formed from large clouds of slowly collapsing gas, these giant stars were energetic enough to reshape their surroundings, helping to form early galaxies and star clusters and burning away a long-standing cosmic fog.\nBut large stars live fast and die young. After a few million years, the primordial giants exploded in supernovae so spectacular they could destroy galaxies.\nThe chemical elements flung from these dying stars into the infant universe seeded the surrounding gas clouds, leaving patterns that astronomers can now read like fingerprints. Those elements helped gas clouds cool and condense more quickly and form a second generation of smaller stars, some of which still survive and can be mined for ancient stellar imprints.\nExplaining an Oddball\nA team led by astronomer Wako Aoki from the National Astronomical Observatory in Japan began its search for the fingerprints of ancient massive stars by looking for small, long-lived stars with low metal content. These might be stars that formed early in the universe and hadn't been contaminated by the splatters from eons of supernovae.\n\"A low-metallicity star clearly records the products of a single supernova,\" Aoki says. \"We can estimate the mass of the progenitor star from the chemical abundances of the products.\"\nIn other words, they were looking for the second-generation stars that might bear fingerprints from first-generation ancestors.\nOne of the stars in the survey, a small, orange star called J0018-0939, stood out. It had low levels of carbon, magnesium, and cobalt (all considered \"metals\" in astronomy) but a peculiarly high level of iron. Normally, that high iron reading would have been enough to exclude the star from the survey. But scientists were intrigued.\nThe team pointed the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii at the star and took a closer look at its chemical profile, making careful measurements of the abundance of chemical elements. It didn't look like anything anyone had ever seen before.\n\"They took a risk and it paid off,\" Bromm says.\nThen, astronomers compared the fingerprint to computer simulations of the chemicals that are created and chucked out by various types of supernovae. According to the team, the explosion model that best fits the chemical profile is what's called a pair-instability supernova, a spectacular type of explosion that can be a hundred times more powerful than the supernovae seen today.\nAnd the only way to get a pair-instability supernova and produce that much iron is by exploding a giant star at least 140 times as massive as the sun, Aoki says.\nNot all the elements in the chemical profile fit the bill for this type of explosion, a result that astronomer Anna Frebel of MIT quibbles with. But Frebel notes that simulating what would happen in supernovae that have not been observed is incredibly difficult.\n\"I'm still a little bit on the fence about whether I believe these [primordial giant stars] existed,\" says Frebel, who has observed a handful of other second-generation stars.\nLike J0018-0939, Frebel's stars bear signatures of the universe's first stars. But unlike this one, those signatures don't reveal the presence of bulked-up behemoths. \"But I would be absolutely thrilled if it turns out to be correct.\"",

        "raw_content": "Penn State's Sickels declares for NFL draft\nUNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Defensive end Garrett Sickels will forgo his final year of eligibility with Penn State to enter the NFL Draft. The 2016 All-Big Ten second team selection started 24 games over the last two seasons.\n\"This journey has been an amazing ride from my commitment to Penn State in 2012 to this past Rose Bowl game,\" Sickels said. \"I have made friendships and bonds that will last a lifetime. I'm so unbelievably proud to call myself a Penn Stater. I take great pride in knowing me and my fellow classmates of the 2013 recruiting class have left Penn State in a much greater place then when we arrived.\"\n\"After taking some time to reflect on this season and my career at Penn State, I am going to declare for the 2017 NFL Draft. This was not an easy decision by any means but I am excited for the next chapter. I want to thank Coach O'Brien for giving me a scholarship to Penn State. Coach Franklin, Coach Pry and Coach Spencer, thank you for pushing me every day and giving me the opportunity of a lifetime to play for the Blue and White. I will forever by a Penn State Nittany Lion.\"\n\"Garrett has been an impact player on this team and a leader for us on the defensive front,\" Penn State head coach James Franklin said. \"He has been a positive influence on his teammates on and off the field, guiding a young defensive line and serving as the president of Uplifting Athletes. We wish him nothing but success in the NFL.\"\nThe native of Red Bank, New Jersey, claimed second-team All-Big Ten honors from the coaches and third-team laurels from the media this season. He was also named to the All-Big Ten third team by Phil Steele and Athlon Sports.\nSickels had career highs with 47 tackles, 6.0 sacks and 12.5 tackles for loss this season on the way to all-conference honors. He garnered Pro Football Focus Big Ten Team of the Week honors following the Ohio State and Indiana games. Sickels was also selected as the team's Most Valuable Defensive Player at the annual Nittany Lion Football Banquet.\nIn the Ohio State game, Sickels sparked the Nittany Lions with nine tackles, 2.5 sacks and 3.5 tackles for loss in the second half of the upset win over the No. 2 Buckeyes. Against Indiana, Sickels has three tackles, all behind the line of scrimmage. He also starred against Michigan State, tallying eight tackles, including as a tackle for loss.\nSickels finished his career with 93 tackles, 11.0 sacks, 20.5 tackles for loss, one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries and one pass breakup. He served as the president/director of operations for Penn State's Uplifting Athletes chapter, which has raised more than $1 million for rare diseases since the first Penn State Lift for Life in 2003.\nFour Nittany Lions sign NFL undrafted free agent contracts\n2016 football, Garrett Sickels",

        "raw_content": "Access to Markets: Cooperative Business Structures\nCooperatives can come in all shapes and sizes. Whether it is a local grocery store stocked with all local products made from area producers or a large company like CHS, Inc. that provides many services nationwide, a cooperative caters to a specific need and improves access to goods or services for all consumers and producers. There are several different kinds of cooperatives business structures, including marketing, purchasing, and service cooperatives.\nMarketing cooperatives assemble, grade, and ship products. The most common places that this cooperative model is found is in the dairy, grain, cotton, livestock, and fruit and vegetable industry. One of the most well-known marketing cooperatives is Land O\u2019 Lakes, a marketing cooperative based out of Minnesota.\nLand O\u2019 Lakes has specialized in the dairy business, specifically butter production, since 1921. They made $14 billion dollars in net sales in 2017, and $149 million dollars of those sales were returned to the 751 members of the coop.\nPurchasing cooperatives cater to the needs of consumers by providing inputs and services. They serve farmers and ranchers by allowing better prices and access to the products that make their farm operate, such as fertilizer, feed, crop protection chemicals, and petroleum. CHS, Inc. is a great example of a purchasing cooperative. They provide a wide access to fuel (Cenex gas stations), provide processing for many grains, and even provide access to local crop nutrient dealers.\nService cooperatives, as the name suggests, provide services and can be formed in a variety of industries. Electric companies, credit unions, telecommunication service providers, and hardware stores are all examples of service cooperatives in action.\nOne example of a service cooperative that caters to agriculture professionals as well as rural homeowners and other cooperatives is the Farm Credit System. The Farm Credit System specializes in providing long-term loans to farmers, ranchers, and harvesters for farm-related business activities. These banks also provide short term and long-term loans like home loans and cooperative loans to other non-farming members of the credit union. They have 72 branches of four main bank systems, which are AgriBank, CoBank, Farm Credit Bank of Texas, and AgFirst Farm Credit Bank.\nThese are just a few of the many cooperative business forms. In the next post, we will explore other examples of cooperatives that benefit rural communities, such as cooperatively owned grocery stores, local credit unions, and cooperatively run farm businesses.\nKnow of any other businesses or cooperatives that benefit rural communities?

A while back I saw one of the girls that I had an opportunity to reach out to for a few months, but who never really responded to the sermons, everything was just about hanging out with friends. We had to go way out of our way to pick her up and drop her off while shew as coming. When I saw her she had a baby of her own. I felt that I had some how failed and wondered if there was anything I could have done differently.\nI get hung up on things like that. I mean I really obsess over my failures. That\u2019s why I hate losing so much, I can\u2019t let it go. I never miss the same question on two tests because I take every wrong answer personally. I find the right answer and don\u2019t ever forget what I did wrong. I don\u2019t know if other pastors are like that, I just know that any perceived failure on my part can take up my whole vision, not to the point of preventing me from moving forward, but in the sense of keeping from making the same mistake. The problem is, people get to do their own thing, and my actions can\u2019t keep them from making mistakes.\nAt some point I need to change my vision and remember that there are good students that get even better. I have a few of those right now, but two in particular have really been doing great. I don\u2019t know that they will never let me down, I mean hey, I have to remember I\u2019m human and I\u2019m bound to let others down, so my students have the same potential. Right now, though, I am so proud of them.\nI have a hard time letting things go, not just perceived failures, I have a hard time trusting others to take on tasks, but ministry isn\u2019t about doing everything yourself. I\u2019ve often said students aren\u2019t the Church of tomorrow, they are the Church right now. If they aren\u2019t doing the work of the Church now then they never will.\nTo that end, I released them to plan and execute the Easter Egg hunt this year. Last year I was a bit more involved, but this year I tried to intentionally let them run with it. They did a great job. They experienced frustrations with getting volunteers and donations, but they pulled off a bigger and better event this year despite those frustrations, and even the weather raging against us. I just have to give them a huge shout out, and I know I can trust them with even more things now.\nWhat about you? Do you have anyone you want to give an \u201cataboy\u201d to? Who, what great and amazing things have they done? How can you help them by releasing them?\nFiled Under: All, Youth Pastor Tagged: doing big things, doing good things, easter, proud, release, students",

        "title": "CIA Study: \u201cConsequences to the US of Communist Domination of Mainland Southeast Asia,\u201d October 13, 1950 - Not Even Past",
        "raw_content": "CIA Study: \u201cConsequences to the US of Communist Domination of Mainland Southeast Asia,\u201d October 13, 1950\nby Mark Atwood Lawrence\nBefore 1948, the Cold War was largely confined to Europe and the Middle East, areas that both U.S. and Soviet leaders considered vital to their nations\u2019 core foreign policy objectives after the Second World War. By 1950, however, the Cold War had spread to Asia. First, Mao Zedong\u2019s communist armies prevailed in the long-running Chinese civil war in October 1949, making the world\u2019s most populous country part of the communist bloc. Then, on July 25, 1950, communist North Korea invaded Western-oriented South Korea, igniting a bloody war and intensifying the mood of global crisis. U.S. officials assumed that Stalin and Mao were behind the North Korean attack and feared that the assault marked the start of a broader offensive in other parts of the continent. Even as they sent troops to defend South Korea, U.S. leaders pumped money and weapons into the region to help bolster friendly forces. Underlying such behavior was a strong sense, illustrated in the following analysis by the Central Intelligence Agency, that losing the region to the communist bloc would have an array of devastating strategic, economic, military, and psychological repercussions extending far beyond Southeast Asia.\nCommunist domination of mainland Southeast Asia would not be critical to US security interests but would have serious immediate and direct consequences. The gravest of such consequences would be a spreading of doubt and fear among other threatened non-Communist countries as to the ability of the US to back up its proclaimed intention to halt Communist expansion everywhere. Unless offset by positive additions to the security of non-Communist countries in other sensitive areas of the world, the psychological effect of the loss of mainland Southeast Asia would not only strengthen Communist propaganda that the advance of Communism is inexorable but would encourage countries vulnerable to Soviet pressure to adopt \u201cneutral\u201d attitudes in the cold war, or possibly even lead them to an accommodation with Communism.\nDomination of the Southeast Asian mainland would increase the threat to such Western outposts in the Pacific as the island chain extending from Japan to Australia and New Zealand. The extension of Communist control, via Burma, to the borders of India and Pakistan would augment the slowly developing Communist threat to the Indian subcontinent. The fall of the Southeast Asian mainland would increase the feeling of insecurity already present in Japan as a result of Communist successes in China and would further underline the apparent economic advantages to the Japanese of association with a communist-dominated Asian sphere.\nThe countries of mainland Southeast Asia produce such materials on the US strategic list as rubber, tin, shellac, kapok, and teak in substantial volume. Although access to these countries is not considered to be \u201cabsolutely essential in an emergency\u201d by the National Security Resources Board, US access to this area is considered \u201cdesirable.\u201d Unlimited Soviet access to the strategic materials of Southeast Asia would probably be \u201cdesirable\u201d for the USSR but would not be \u201cabsolutely essential in an emergency\u201d and therefore denial of the resources of the area to the Soviet Union would not be essential to the US strategic position. Communist control over the rice surpluses of the Southeast Asian mainland would, however, provide the USSR with considerable bargaining power in its relations with other countries of the Far East.\nLoss of the area would indirectly affect US security interests through its important economic consequences for countries aligned with the US. Loss of Malaya would deprive the UK of its greatest net dollar earner. An immediate consequence of the loss of Indochina might be a strengthening of the defense of Western Europe since French expenditures for men and materiel in Indochina would be available to fulfill other commitments. Exclusion of Japan from trade with Southeast Asia would seriously frustrate Japanese prospects for economic recovery.\nCommunist domination of mainland Southeast Asia would place unfriendly forces astride the most direct and best-developed sea and air routes between the Western Pacific and India and the Near East. The denial to the US of intermediate routes in mainland Southeast Asia would be significant because communications between the US and India and the Near East would be essential in a global war. In the event of such a war, the development of Soviet submarine and air bases in mainland Southeast Asia probably would compel the detour of US and allied shipping and air transportation in the Southeast Asia region via considerably longer alternate routes to the south. This extension of friendly lines of communication would hamper US strategic movements in this region and tend to isolate the major non-Communist bases In the Far East \u2013 the offshore island chain and Australia \u2013 from existing bases in East Africa and the Near and Middle East, as well as from potential bases on the Indian sub-continent.\nBesides disrupting established lines of communication in the area, the denial of actual military facilities in mainland Southeast Asia \u2013 in particular, the loss of the major naval operating bases at Singapore \u2013 would compel the utilization of less desirable peripheral bases. Soviet exploitation of the naval and air bases in mainland Southeast Asia probably would be limited by the difficulties of logistic support but would, nevertheless, increase the threat to existing lines of communication. The loss of any portion of mainland Southeast Asia would increase possibilities for the extension of Communist control over the remainder. The fall of Indochina would provide the Communists with a staging area in addition to China for military operations against the rest of mainland Southeast Asia, and this threat might well inspire accommodation in both Thailand and Burma. Assuming Thailand\u2019s loss, the already considerable difficulty faced by the British in maintaining security in Malaya would be greatly aggravated. Assuming Burma\u2019s internal collapse, unfavorable trends in India would be accelerated. If Burma were overcome by external aggression, however, a stiffening of the attitude of the Government of India toward International Communism could be anticipated.\nSource: http://www.foia.cia.gov/docs/DOC_0000258837/DOC_0000258837.pdf\nMao Zedong proclaiming the founding of the People\u2019s Republic of China in Beijing\u2019s Tiananmen Square, October 1, 1949 (Image courtesy of the People\u2019s Republic of China)\nSouth Korean refugees flee south to escape the North Korean army, 1950 (Image courtesy of the United States Government)\nU.S. air and ground Marines fighting Chinese forces in Korea, 1950 (Image courtesy of the United States Federal Government)\nPosted April 17, 2013 More 1900s, Asia, Blog, Cold War, Discover, United States",

Enjoy\nIn the old days, digging was really the way to mine by using a stone breaker, a rotary cutter, an excavator, and other tools for digging holes in the rock. It was easier these days, and the miners didn't have to suffer so much. They used a mechanical digger to remove the back-filled gravel while they were digging.\nIt was still tiring, but it was a lot easier than digging holes in the rock. It was also safer, as long as you looked at the terrain and dug through all the rubble, being careful not to get buried.\nAfter only half a day, the hole was almost cleared, and a wide hole about two meters in diameter appeared in front of them.\nAfter lunch, Li Du returned to the mine to work. After entering he was just about to start when suddenly, Brother Wolf pulled him back.\n\"What's the matter?\" he asked in surprise.\nBrother Wolf stared in front of him and said, \"Snake.\"\nLi Du took a closer look at it with his headlamp. Indeed, a snake was emerging from a break in the gravel. Brother Wolf's eyes were sharper than his. He hadn't noticed the snake at all.\nThere were too many reptiles in Australia. There were 140 species of land snakes and 32 species of water snakes. Hundreds among them were venomous and could cause death. Not only were there many snake species, but they also occured in large numbers.\nRecently, Li Du also saw in the news that a girl in Canberra felt something inside of her shoe when she ran. When she took off her shoes after running, she saw a small snake inside, but it had been smothered by her toes.\nLi Du used to be afraid of snakes. He saw them as limp reptiles that always sparked fear in his heart. But after a while in Australia, he became used to them. Snakes weren't that scary to him anymore. As long as a person did not mess with them, they could be tamer than a mosquito.\nThe snake before them had a grey-brown back with black stripes, an orange-red belly, and a light, silent belly that Brother Wolf once used to get revenge on Blanchett.\n\"What should we do?\" Li Du asked cautiously.\nAlthough the red-bellied black snake would not cause death, it was a famous venomous snake. If he was bitten, he could not be saved in the mine environment, which was very troublesome.\nBrother Wolf said, \"Let's just beat it and kill it.\"\nAustralia had too many venomous snakes, and the government's response was to leave them alone as long as they didn't get in anyone's way. However, if snakes got in the way of people's lives, it was best to try to kill them.\nLi Du picked up a stone and tried to throw it. Brother Wolf shook his head to stop him, and then hunched down carefully and slowly, stretching out his hand. As he approached the red-bellied black snake, Brother Wolf seized the back of the snake's head. The red-bellied black snake reacted quickly, contracting and wrapping itself around his arm after being caught.\nBrother Wolf shook his arm violently wanting to shake it away. A few moments later, the snake was dizzy. Brother Wolf threw the snake to the ground and smashed its head with a stone.\nIt was just a small scene in the digging of the mine.\nHowever, the appearance of the red-bellied black snake was a reminder to Li Du that they were digging a hole in dangerous, subterranean Australia, and could never know when they might encounter venomous snakes.\nConsequently, he called Ah Meow down and let him escort him. It turned out that his caution was necessary. Just as they were pus.h.i.+ng a half-meter deeper, Ah Meow, who was lounging on a rock, darted forward. His attack was quick and a trail flashed, and he dragged a snake from one side of the hole to the other.\nThe snake, about a meter long, bore a slight resemblance to the red-bellied black snake that had appeared earlier. It was also gray-black with a red spine and a red belly, but the color of the snake's belly was reddish yellow.\n\"Pseudechis porphyriacus.\" Brother Wolf frowned.\nCompared to the red-bellied black snake, the pseudechis porphyriacus was much more venomous.\nAfter encountering two snakes in a row, Li Du hesitated a little and said, \"How come there are so many snakes in this mine?\"\nSophie, who was helping above ground, saw that another snake had been brought to the table. She became worried and said over the intercom, \"Do you want me to go down and help? I'm carrying a venomous snake serum.\"\nLi Du said, \"No, you don't need to come down. It probably just happens to be coincidence.\"\nTo be on the safe side, he released the little bug and went into the rubble to check the situation. The little bug flew into it, and he immediately got chills when he saw the situation. Several snakes remained in the rubble, and the closer they got to the end of the hole, the more snakes there were.\nAh Meow jumped back from his side and with a claw, pulled a snake off the top of the pit. It was another pseudechis porphyriacus\u2026\nLi Du controlled the little bug to fly into the lithosphere above his head. There were holes and cracks in the lithosphere.\nMaking a quick decision, he waved and said, \"Brother Wolf, let's go. There are too many poisonous snakes in here.\" As he spoke, another snake emerged from a crack. Brother Wolf took out a dagger from his waist and threw it. The point of the knife went into the snake's head and nailed it in the gap, blocking it up.\nWhen they returned above ground with Ah Meow, G.o.dzilla, thinking it was his turn to go down, took off his coat and started to go down the mine.\nLi Du stopped him and said, \"What are you doing?\"\nG.o.dzilla naturally said, \"Work.\"\nLi Du said, \"The mine is filled with snakes. We don't know why a lot of snakes came out. How are you going to work? Are you going there just to kill yourself?\"\nG.o.dzilla thought for a moment, then asked, \"Can they be eaten?\"\nThis question made Li Du laugh and feel helpless at the same time. The situation was already so bad, but he was still thinking about eating!\nAfter hearing what they said, Lu Guan interrupted and said, \"Boss, you have just killed two snakes. Is it the snake's family coming to get revenge?\"\nLi Du was not in good mood and said rudely, \"Be serious. Hurry up and get some snake repellent powder so we can drive these snakes away.\"\nSuddenly Sophie asked, \"We noticed that this mine is shorter than other mines. Why is this happening? Is there something wrong?\"\nLi Du, who had the phone number of the former mine owner, Muller, called him and asked, \"What's going on? Why are there snakes?\"\nFrom the moment he mentioned the mine, Muller's reaction was a bit awkward. Listening to his question, Muller grumbled, \"Why did you go about digging a backfill pit?\"\nLi Du said vaguely, \"I wanted to continue digging through your mine to see if I could find any gems. What's going on in this mine? Is there a snake's nest in it?\"\nTreasure Hunt Tycoon Chapter 824: Backfilled Tunnels\nYou're Read Treasure Hunt Tycoon Chapter 825: Dug Into The Snake Pit online at novelonlinefree.info.

Recently I was accepted into the Free Agent program in the Government of Canada. This program is intended to help government deliver on priorities with an agile approach to putting top talent to work on short term (6-18 month) projects.\nYou can find out more about the program and details on acquiring Free Agents by visiting the GCcollab group\nThere are lots of good reasons to join the Free Agent program and in my case it appears to be one of the few ways someone in my circumstance can build a rewarding career in the Government of Canada.\nI am excited about the prospects of working on new and important projects, while at the same time I am sad to be leaving Open Government. I have very much enjoyed listening to Canadians and I love the team and their mandate.\nMy personal mission has been to try and figure out how something as amorphous as \u201cgovernment\u201d can effectively listen to its clients, citizens, stakeholders etc. I have learned a lot, and before I go I will do my best to share that learning.\nWho is this Free Agent?\nI am a storyteller, analyst, project leader, facilitator, teacher, and decision maker. My focus is on collaboration for improving process and achieving better outcomes. Here are some sources that will show you some of who I am and what I have done.\nMy LinkedIn profile https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomk/\nIntroduction to Thom Kearney https://nusum.wordpress.com/about/\nAt this point it looks like I might have my first assignment lined up, decision to be made by the end of this week (May 25th, 2018).

        "raw_content": "When a company or organization grows so large and powerful that corruption goes unnoticed, it\u2019s important to have a system of checks and balances in place. This is what whistleblowing is for.\nDEFENDING AGAINST WHISTLEBLOWING\nIf you have been falsely accused by a whistleblower, your reputation is not a complete loss. In fact, many whistleblowing cases are settled quietly, out of court once the emotions, needs, and boundaries have been aired. It is imperative that during this time, between when you first were accused and when the case is settled, you should not deal directly with the whistleblower and you should not do anything that could be considered retaliation. Otherwise, you\u2019ll end up facing double the corporate lawsuits.\nHOW TO BE A WHISTLEBLOWER:\nBefore heading to your boss\u2019 office with accusations, try a more subtle and sound approach. Meet with a business attorney and have a discussion about your potential whistleblowing case. A professional attorney will be able to advise as to whether or not you have the type of information to hold up in court. If so, our Northwest Business Law Group team will direct the next steps to take toward going public in a way that will improve your results while managing your reputation.",

        "raw_content": "Mike Francesa feisty over his uncertain future\nMarch 8, 2018 | 10:48am | Updated March 8, 2018 | 4:26pm\nMike Francesa Getty Images\nCharles Woodson gone in ESPN 'Sunday NFL Countdown' shakeup\nMike Francesa is yelling. He sounds like he is back on the radio, roaring, and about to give his producer the wave at any moment to cut off the spot.\nBut this is just a phone call with a reporter. It goes on for nearly 20 feisty, but entertaining, minutes.\nThe goal of the call was to confirm information that we had been told about Francesa\u2019s future plans. Francesa declared that no one knows what his next move will be.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t know anything I\u2019m doing,\u201d Francesa told The Post.\nFrancesa might be a little unclear on what is next as well.\nSince deciding to leave his afternoon perch after three decades at WFAN in December in what was called a \u201cretirement,\u201d Francesa, 64, has definitively said that he still wants to work.\nFrancesa has taken some time off and tried to figure out what is next. Sources said there was some kicking of the tires with SiriusXM, where the other half of his iconic duo, Chris Russo, is still a star on the satellite radio network that bears his Mad Dog nickname. The talks were about reuniting Francesa in small doses, not full-time, but it never went anywhere.\nFrancesa has spoken to the subscriber-based, two-year-old startup The Athletic, according to sources. The Athletic is predominantly based in the written word and not in Francesa\u2019s audio background.\nThe site did just raise an additional $20 million, which included money from CAA, a top talent agency. Francesa, according to a source, is working with CAA. Francesa said he hadn\u2019t signed with anyone, but declined to say he wasn\u2019t working with anyone. A CAA spokesperson declined comment.\nWhile a source said there is no current match with The Athletic, the CAA relationship probably will lead to whatever is next for Francesa. It\u2019s also a sign that Francesa, who hasn\u2019t had an agent for years, realizes he now needs some help in figuring out his future.\nMike Francesa and Chris RussoGetty Images for SiriusXM\nOne source said Francesa is building a studio in his house, which sounds grandiose, but can be done relatively cheaply these days. Francesa, according to sources, had grown tired of the commute to WFAN, even with a personal driver. He had a home line at WFAN, but rarely used it.\nWhen asked specifically about these items, Francesa didn\u2019t deny any of it, but he also did not confirm it, mostly choosing to just emphasize that no one knows anything, especially the person he was talking to.\nThe most intriguing move for Francesa would be to team up with Russo again on some sort of regular basis or return to WFAN. The two are scheduled to reunite on Mad Dog\u2019s TV show on MLB Network and Russo could grant him time on his satellite radio show, if he chooses.\nThe duo \u2014 and their fans \u2014 do like the one-off reminiscence spots. When Francesa was still at WFAN, top executives from the radio station and SiriusXM realized this and had talks a few years ago about trying to arrange some sort of weekly simulcast, according to sources. It was intriguing to all parties, but there were too many obstacles to get anything done.\nRusso\u2019s solo career is going very well and, as Francesa has noted on the air, there may not be any places left to pay them the millions each they would want to work regularly together.\nMeanwhile, a couple of Francesa confidants speculated about a return to WFAN, but that seems unlikely, at least, at this point. WFAN is focused on making Francesa\u2019s replacements, Chris Carlin, Maggie Gray and Bart Scott, successful.\nIt can\u2019t be completely ruled out as Francesa did suggest staying, while asking for a raise, when morning show host Craig Carton was arrested and subsequently resigned last year. Radio executives declined Francesa\u2019s offer.\nOn the TV side, in 2014, when Francesa lost his simulcast on YES to Michael Kay\u2019s ESPN New York radio show, Francesa held talks with MSG Network about taking it over, but nothing materialized. Now, a source said the two sides haven\u2019t spoken since Francesa left WFAN.\nMike Francesa on Parcells relationship, brother's suicide and one amazing run\nNew York sports radio legend Mike Francesa took a break...\nThe other two regional networks, YES and SNY, are not fits because of history and there is no need to risk a big-money deal to see if Francesa could be successful. ESPN would have no use for Francesa and he has been a vocal critic of the network for years.\nThere has been speculation about Francesa working with Bill Simmons\u2019 Ringer network, but there has yet to be any movement to make that happen, despite Francesa appearing on Simmons\u2019 popular podcast after he left WFAN. There have been no talks with Turner/Bleacher Report, either. The NFL Network can\u2019t be ruled out, as Francesa has guested on its shows recently.\nCould Facebook or Twitter or one of the new possible players try to do something with Francesa? It seems possible, but with no personal social media imprint, he would be an odd choice. That is especially true considering he is said to be asking for big money.\nFrancesa would probably be wise to do a little podcast, maybe some daily shorter audio from the home studio, which would likely appeal to his die-hard fans and could potentially be lucrative. He also could do some one-off events \u2014 especially if Russo would be willing to join him \u2014 that would feed Francesa\u2019s ego.\nWhatever it is Francesa is up to, he is either trying to keep it very secret, or doesn\u2019t really know what is next.\n\u201cYou should write, \u2018You, Andrew Marchand, don\u2019t know what I\u2019m planning,\u2019\u201d Francesa said.\nWhat we do know for sure is Francesa seems like he hasn\u2019t lost his cranky edge or his ego in retirement. The nearly 20 minutes on the phone were quite entertaining. It should have ended with, \u201cBack after this.\u201d\nFiled under chris russo , mike francesa , sports media , wfan\nGold medalist accuses airport cops of racial profiling",

The testimony outlines the role of ocean science in addressing climate change, prioritizes funding for basic research at NSF and earth sciences at NASA, and addresses needed resources for NOAA\u2019s education programs.\nView past testimony here.\nWeather forecasting improvement act Passes House\nThe House of Representatives passed legislation this week that would prioritize weather-related activities at NOAA in order to strengthen weather predictions and to better inform the public of extreme weather events. The House passed the Weather Forecasting Improvement Act of 2013 (H.R. 2413) by voice vote. The bill aims to redirect resources at NOAA to a \u201cfocused program of investment on near-term, affordable, and attainable advances in observational, computing, and modeling capabilities\u201d to improve forecasting of extreme weather events. The original bill stated that NOAA make weather-related activities a \u201ctop priority,\u201d but after a change in language the final bill stipulates that NOAA \u201cshall prioritize\u201d weather-related activities. Although NOAA scientists won\u2019t be prohibited from studying climate patterns, they would be required to \u201cprioritize weather-related activities\u201d in their work. Ranking Member Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) stated \u201cDuring the committee process we heard from witness after witness who stressed that weather forecasting involves many different scientific disciplines, and this integrated, multi-disciplinary approach reflects an understanding that we cannot choose to strengthen one area of research at the Office of Oceans and Atmospheric Research (OAR) without endangering the progress in the other areas because they are all interconnected. Physical and chemical laws do not respect OAR\u2019s budgeting boundaries of climate, weather, and oceans and this bill only addresses organizational issues in weather at NOAA.\u201d\nIn December of last year, Consortium for Ocean Leadership delivered a letter to Senate Commerce Committee Members emphasizing how the ocean influences weather and storms. The letter also encouraged Members to increase \u201clonger-term sustained observations of both the ocean and the atmosphere.\u201d\nHouse PASSES BILLs TO CLEAN UP TSUNAMI DEBRIS\nThe House of Representatives passed two bills this week that would help West Coast states remove marine debris from the tsunami that caused the Fukashima Daiichi nuclear plant meltdown. H.R. 1491, would allow NOAA to refund states for the cost of tsunami cleanup using $5 million donated by Japan. H.R.1425, would allow NOAA to prioritize grant applications from communities facing severe marine debris events. Both bills were included as part of a larger package of legislation approved by the House. \u201cThe 2011 tsunami that struck Japan continues to threaten Oregon\u2019s coastal areas by bringing debris and non-native species into delicate ecosystems.\u201d said Representative Bonamici (D-OR) \u201cMany residents in my district rely on our beaches and waterways to earn a living. Oregon\u2019s coastal areas are already suffering from the effects of invasive marine organisms, which compete with, prey on, and crowd out native plants and animals. The introduction of additional aquatic invasive species into our coastal ecosystems could be devastating. This legislation ensures that in the future, coastal communities in Oregon and wherever there is a marine debris emergency will be able to access critical resources to fund timely clean-up and recovery operations in tsunami related environmental emergencies.\u201d\nFY 2015 Funding Hearings\nSeveral hearings regarding the fiscal year (FY) 2015 budget occurred this week and will continue throughout the Spring. When pressed about lack of funding, most agency representatives highlighted the President\u2019s Opportunity, Growth and Security Initiative, which Congress is unlikely to include in its appropriations measures.\nThe Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations held a hearing on the President\u2019s FY 2015 budget request for the National Science Foundation (NSF). President Obama is proposing $7.255 billion for the science agency, an increase of $83.08 million (1.2 percent) over the FY 2014 enacted level. Dr. Cora Marrett, Acting Director, said that given the current funding constraints, the FY 2015 request \u201cprovides robust support for core programs in fundamental research and education in all fields of science and engineering.\u201d Marrett pointed to the $552 million proposed through the Opportunity, Growth, and Security Initiative (OGSI) for NSF, as a means to promote current programs and future opportunities. Chairman Frank Wolf [R-VA] expressed concern over the lack of research and development investment, noting that the US is falling behind other countries like China. Marrett said that although we still are ahead in terms of science and international competitiveness, our rate of progress is trailing. This prompted Wolf to inquire about the increase of STEM education spending and priority. According to Marrett, STEM education is a high priority for NSF, especially in FY 2015, and the President\u2019s request proposes to add 2,000 additional graduate fellowships, as well as a larger stipend for fellows. Ranking Member Chaka Fattah [D-PA] and Representative Andy Harris [R-MD] stressed the need for continued investment in basic research and its ability to operate as an engine for major scientific breakthroughs.\nNSF funding charts for FY 2015 can be found here.\nOffice of Science and Technology Policy (Science agencies)\nThe House Science, Space, and Technology Committee received testimony from John Holdren, Director of White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, on the President\u2019s FY 2015 budget request for federal science agencies. President Obama\u2019s FY 2015 proposal of $66 billion for nondefense science programs was scrutinized by Committee Republicans who feel the administration is spending too much money, time, and effort on climate change. Holdren is optimistic for the President\u2019s $56 billion Opportunity, Growth, and Security Initiative (OGSI) and hopes it will fund additional priorities that could not be met by the FY 2015 request. Chairman Lamar Smith [R-TX] criticized the fact that the administration proposed only $13 billion in total for the Office of Science, NSF and NIST, while the Bush administration proposed $13.3 billion in today\u2019s dollars for the same three agencies. Ranking Member Eddie Bernice Johnson [D-TX] noted that Obama had to operate within a $1.4 trillion spending cap, something Bush did not face. Johnson also asked Holdren to elaborate on the impacts of social and behavioral sciences, which takes a huge cut in the FIRST Act, introduced by Smith. Holdren noted the documented benefits of social science to society such as risk communication and communicating geographic information systems. Smith also probed the NSF grant process and asked if awardees should be required to submit justification for their research in order to deem it worthy of funding. Holdren said NSF now has new guidelines on transparency and posts all grant justification on its website. Representative Donna Edwards [D-MD] encouraged her colleagues to look beyond the titles for grants and to review the justifications.\nScience funding charts for FY 2015 can be found here.\nThe Subcommittee on Space of the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee held a hearing to review the FY 2015 President\u2019s budget request for NASA. The Committee discussed international partnerships, space exploration initiatives, and funding for planetary science programs. Representative Suzanne Bonamici [D-OR] expressed her wish to prioritize an increased funding for Earth sciences to help understand climate change. Bonamici also encouraged NASA Administrator, Charles Bolden to continue working with other agencies like NOAA to better utilize weather-monitoring technology. The Committee also discussed NASA\u2019s proposal to end the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) in FY 2015.\nNASA science funding charts for FY 2015 can be found here.\nDepartment of Defense (Science and Technology Programs)\nThe Intelligence, Emerging Threats and Capabilities Subcommittee of the House Armed Services Committee held a hearing to review the President\u2019s FY 2015 budget request for Department of Defense\u2019s science and technology programs. Ranking Member Jim Langevin [D-RI] expressed confusion with the decrease in the national defense education programs and expressed a need for robust STEM education. Witnesses countered the concern by informing Committee Members that DOD supports science efforts in other agencies rather than housing them within their own programs. Representative Susan Davis [D-CA] recommended that the America COMPETES Act be reauthorized expediently in order to further promote STEM.\nDOD and Navy RDT&E funding charts for FY 2015 can be found here.\nThe Energy and Water Development Subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations held a hearing to review the President\u2019s FY 2015 budget request for the Army Corps of Engineers. The FY 2015 budget request by the Administration for the Corps of Engineers is approximately $4.5 billion. This request is less than what was requested in previous budgets and almost 20 percent less than what was appropriated by Congress for FY 2014. Ranking Member Marcy Kaptur [D-OH] addressed the need for funding to reduce invasive species, such as the growing Asian Carp population in the Great Lakes. The recent Obama Administration proposal to clarify which waters receive protection under the Clean Water Act was also discussed. Appropriators warned Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works Jo-Ellen Darcy, that acquiring the funds to enforce the proposed ruling would be difficult.\nThe Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee held their own hearing to review the President\u2019s FY 2014 budget request for the Corps. Chairman Bob Gibbs [R-OH] expressed concern over the budgets lack of \u201cfunding for construction of shore protection projects nationwide.\u201d Gibbs also pointed to \u201can ecosystem restoration construction budget that is three times larger than its coastal navigation construction budget.\u201d He suggested slowing environmental restoration projects until the economy improves. Representative John Garamendi [D-CA] added that ecosystem restoration projects are lifesaving, such as the Hamilton City project which sets back the Sacramento River levee create habitat and flood protection for the area.\nThe Interior, Environment and Related Agencies Subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee held a hearing to discuss the President\u2019s FY 15 budget request for the Department of Interior (DOI). President Obama has proposed $11.9 billion in appropriations for the Department, 2.4 percent above current enacted levels. The proposed 2.4 percent increase discussed in the hearing includes an increase in the Department\u2019s firefighting budget, full and permanent funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund, National Park Service funding, and an increase in youth education and employment programs.\nThe Senate Environment and Public Works Committee held an oversight hearing on the President\u2019s FY 15 budget request for the EPA. Chairwoman Barbara Boxer [D-CA] voiced concern over proposed cuts to the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Funds and the Diesel Emissions Reduction grant program, which she believes are critical to protecting public health. Even so, Committee Democrats were optimistic about EPA\u2019s climate change priorities, especially the outlined funding for risk and adaptation planning. Nonetheless, the climate change debate continued between Committee Republicans and Democrats.\nThe Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations held their own hearing to review the President\u2019s FY 2015 budget request for the agency. Chairman Hal Rogers [R-KY] expressed concern over a newly proposed rule from the EPA and Army Corps of Engineers that would place a number of streams and the wetlands under federal jurisdiction.\nNOAA\u2019s National Ocean Service holds Constituent briefing on FY 2015 Budget\nDr. Holly Bamford, Assistant Administrator of the National Ocean Service (NOS) opened a constituent briefing last Tuesday at the Consortium for Ocean Leadership, saying that \u201cscience is the underpinning of what we do\u201d at NOS. The FY 2015 president\u2019s budget request for NOS is $519 million, including priorities for coastal intelligence; place based conservation, and coastal preparedness, response, recovery, and resiliency. Highlights from the budget include an additional $4 million for LiDAR programs, $5 million to increase capacity to respond to extreme events, $5 million in coastal resilience grants, $4 million for ecological forecasting, $6 million for coastal ecosystem research and development, $1.3 million for Arctic oil spill preparedness, $1 million for marine sensor innovation, and $6 million in National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science competitive research. There were also cuts to several programs, including $3.8 million for disaster response, $2 million for marine sanctuaries, $4 million for geospatial modeling, and a proposal to close the Pivers Island Lab in Beaufort, North Carolina.\nMore information on the NOAA FY 2015 Budget is available here.\nOCEAN Caucus Holds Briefing on ILLEGAL, UNREPORTED, AND UNREGULATED (IUU) Fishing\nOn Wednesday, the Oceans Caucus Foundation held a workshop discussing illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing. Opening remarks were made by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse [D-RI], who is a co-sponsor of the International Fisheries Stewardship and Enforcement Act (S. 267). This bill, along with the Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated Fishing Enforcement Act (H.R. 69) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Port State Agreement, attempts to address illegal fishing. IUU threats to national security, the livelihood of legal US fishermen, and ocean health were discussed. Panelist Dr. Jean-Pierre Pie, acting director of international affairs at NOAA Fisheries, explained that IUU fish are not accounted for in scientific stock assessments. The lack of data on fisheries in developing countries was stressed by Tania Taranovski, director of the sustainable seafood program at the New England Aquarium, who also recommended increases in seafood sustainability research. Dr. Kausch Arha, member of the International Conservation Caucus Foundation, ended the workshop by stating that although progress is being made, \u201ccompared to what we do on the terrestrial side, we are still a long way away.\u201d\nMore information on this briefing can be found here.\nBOB DETRICK, ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR OF OAR TO LEAVE NOAA END OF APRIL\nBob Detrick, Assistant Administrator of NOAA\u2019s Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) announced that he will be leaving the agency at the end of this month. Detrick will serve as the new President and Chief Executive Officer of Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS), a consortium of over 100 research universities in the U.S. dedicated to advancing research and education in seismology. Detrick was named OAR\u2019s Assistant Administrator in January 2012. Prior to joining NOAA, Detrick was Director of the National Science Foundation\u2019s Division of Earth Sciences. He joined NSF in 2008 following more than 20 years at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI).",

The program is named for Sir Alexander Fleming, the famed British scientist, who discovered penicillin and in 1949 came to Oklahoma City to formally dedicate the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation\u2019s first building. In the first news release about the program in 1956, the late Dean A. McGee, then Chairman of the Board of Directors\u2019 Executive Committee, expressed the philosophy behind the program:\n\u201cWe feel that students will greatly benefit from the opportunity of working shoulder-to-shoulder in the laboratories with our scientific personnel. Our scientists feel also that in this way they can make a direct contribution to the solution of the critical manpower shortage in the field of biology and medical research. We are shorthanded in terms of having adequate staff to do the job of expanding our knowledge in the field of human health, and perhaps by this program, we will be helping identify and stimulate the scientists of tomorrow.\u201d\nIn 1982, the Fleming Scholar Program became a model for a national program funded by the federal government to bring the best and brightest high school and college students into contact with the best and brightest scientific and mathematical minds in government and non-government laboratories.\nToday the Fleming Scholar Program remains popular, attracting as many as 100 applicants each year.",

        "raw_content": "When DI Katie Maguire gets asked to attend a wedding, it isn\u2019t unfortunately as a guest\u2026something rather gruesome has turned up in the cake, the head of the baker (a bit of a spoiler, sorry, but it\u2019s in the blurb online so I figured even if I didn\u2019t spill the beans, the publisher has). When they find his wife, she tells them he\u2019s been missing for over a week, taken by The High Kings of Erin in return for more money than she could ever hope to raise. They are, it seems, as good as bankrupt thanks to the financial crash.\nAt first, it looks like this is a one-off but then another local businessman goes missing. He, too, is close to broke and The High Kings claim responsibility. They also take to taunting Katie, always seeming to be one step ahead of her and taking pleasure in killing anyone who gets in their way. It doesn\u2019t help that Katie\u2019s boss doesn\u2019t think she\u2019s worth a jot \u2013 given her job because she\u2019s a woman \u2013 and uses every slip to show her up. Of course, he might not dislike her so much if she wasn\u2019t investigating him as well as the kidnappings. It\u2019s all quite a tangled web that moves at quite a pace.\nAs with all good detectives, Katie eventually comes out on top but not before a fairly high body count and some pretty gruesome and gory murders. There is more gore than I like nowadays but as I am somewhat committed to the series I tended to forgive this because the style hasn\u2019t changed since the first book, it\u2019s my tastes that have. As Graham Masterton is also a horror writer, I think a bit of gore should probably be expected.\nThe threads of the plot all tie in nicely together in the end and left me feeling pretty happy with the outcomes. The only element I didn\u2019t like was a storyline involving Katie\u2019s neighbour. I understood why it was there \u2013 or think I do as it seems to be a set up for book five \u2013 but it felt tagged on and given than Katie\u2019s supposed to be a tough cop her behaviour here didn\u2019t seem to fit. This did mean I didn\u2019t enjoy the book as much as I have others or as much as I might have because it distracted me. Leaving me liking this book but not loving it.\n2015, book review, crime fiction, series, set in ireland\nThis Week, Next Week in Books: 2nd August, 2015\n3 thoughts on \u201cTaken for Dead by Graham Masterton\u201d\nThis sounds good, I\u2019ve been craving mysteries and thrillers of late.

        "raw_content": "casinos GB 0\nBy wp_onligamwo \u00b7 On October 18, 2018\nAre you looking to pick up a new past-time? Are you tired of the same old same old and are itching to try something different? Well you may just want to check out the hottest trend in the casino industry, and that\u2019s to test your luck with online gaming. The online casino industry is an absolutely massive one and is expected to be worth a whopping US$59.79 billion by the year 2020.\nWhat has really propelled this industry forward at breakneck speed is technology. When you look around, it\u2019s hard to find a field or industry where technology hasn\u2019t played a significant role in the last decade or two, and the online casino industry is no exception. Technology hasn\u2019t just played a role, it\u2019s been the driving force creating all kinds of gaming options that didn\u2019t exist before.\nPLAY AT A UK CASINO NOW!\nWhile it\u2019s one thing to be able to download an app to play on your mobile device or computer, it\u2019s an entirely different thing to be able to experience a game that feels real and gives you that sense that you\u2019re actually standing in a casino. This is the kind of thing that technology has made possible.\nHere in the UK, players have definitely caught on to the trend and are now jumping in with both feet to experience what the industry has to offer.\nNow, before you just give the first casino that you stumble across online a try, there are some factors worth taking note of. Here in the UK there are some specific considerations that you will want to investigate so that you can pick a casino that is not only fun but also safe and secure. Here are the tips worth following that will protect your safety and ensure the gameplay is smooth and fun, plus we\u2019ll take a look at four of the top casinos worth checking out.\nIs the Casino Optimised for Mobile Use?\nMany make the assumption that any casino can be played online through your computer and on your mobile device, but that isn't always the case. In order for the games to perform properly and smoothly, then it will need to be optimised for mobile use. What that means is that things will look and react the same whether you are on your computer or mobile device.\nTo take it one step further, some casinos offer a companion app so that you can download it straight to your device.\nWhat is the Customer Service Like?\nYou can also tell a lot about a casino and how much it values its players by the customer service they offer. Is customer service available the majority of the time, or better yet on a 24/7 basis? Is it easy to reach customer service, and how good of a job do they do listening to you and remedying your issues?\nDoes the Site Have Its Own Game Software or Third Party Only?\nWhen it comes to the gaming options, it's a good idea to check out who is providing the gaming software. Is it provided by a third party only, in which case you may see repeats between the different casinos, or does the casino also offer its own in-house developed games? Sometimes a casino will offer a bit of both, which is a way to make it feel unique.\nHow Fast and Easy are Pay Outs Made?\nNow if you happen to win, you also want to be sure that the casino makes fast and easy pay outs so you aren't sitting around waiting. You can typically find this information on the fact page of the casino.\nApproach it as a Fun Activity Not a Way to Make Money\nThe final tip is more about your own state of mind and how you approach online gambling. The best attitude to have is that you are playing for fun. You are doing it for the sheer entertainment value. What this means is go into it looking for a good time, but don't expect you are going to win.\nTaking a Closer Look at the Top Casinos in the UK\nNow as far as the top casinos here in the UK, there are a few that stand out. Here\u2019s a look at the top four.\nThe Yukon Gold Casino is ideal for those players who want more of that traditional casino vibe. This one has a fun American Old West theme to it, so you'll feel as though you've stepped back in time. But don\u2019t let its quaint atmosphere fool you as there are plenty of challenges to be had here.\nThe casino has been around since 2004 and offers players an extremely safe and secure platform to which they can have fun on. The site uses 128-bit encryption which gives players that important peace of mind.\nAlong with security being a top priority, so is customer service. This is evident in the welcome bonus giving new players 125 free spins.\nAnother casino worth taking note of is Captain Cooks Casino. This casino draws new players in with the 100 chances to become an instant millionaire with their welcome bonus. You can even download the HD software in order to enjoy an incredible gaming experience.\nIf it's blockbuster style slot games you're after, then Captain Cooks Casino is the place to be. You'll find such popular games as Lara Croft Tomb Raider Secret of the Sword, Game of Thrones, and even Bridesmaids.\nThen we have the Grand Mondial Casino which is equally as worth of a mention. This casino is known for constantly updating its game offerings so that players can always take part in the latest and greatest. It too has a welcome bonus that you can take advantage of, and you can once again download HD software for a truly spectacular experience.\nCustomer service is available 24/7 so you also know that you can easily contact them and even make use of the live chat feature.\nFinally, we have the Zodiac Casino which is known for the Mega Moolah progressive jackpot. This provides you with the chance to win real big. Other options include roulette, video slots, video poker, and blackjack. Again, you've got that all-important 24/7 customer service, and this one can be used on the computer or your mobile device.\nNo matter which of these four casinos calls your name, you\u2019re sure to have a fun time.",

        "raw_content": "The hard sell and me\nWhen I moved from employment to running my own businesses I did a few sales courses. The first one I was obliged to undertake as it went towards getting and accreditation with a membership organization. The technique they employed was the hard sell.\nBeing wet-behind-the-ears as an independent business person, and also intimidated by being overseen on my first sales appointments by a \u201cmentor\u201d, I thought this was the way to go. The plan was to make the \u201cprospect\u201d or victim feel really in pain and then offer a solution at a price. The \u201cclose\u201d involved applying psychological pressure along the lines of \u201cImagine how disastrous your business future will be if you do not sign\u201d and \u201cThis price is for today only. We are only taking on a few clients at this special price so you must sign now\u201d.\nFortunately I was no good at this type of selling. I did not like my \u201cprospects\u201d to squirm because I tended to empathise with them rather than see them as prey. I did not have the stomach for the hard sell.\nOne could well imagine that if any of my \u201cvictims\u201d had caved in, he or she would have regretted the decision all too soon. Had she paid too much? How could he work with someone who had scared the proverbial out of him?\nI never made a sale that way, thank goodness. I would have had it on my conscience.\nI learned that customers do indeed seek comfort and reassurance. They know when they need help. They answer a familiar ad; one that they have seen many times. They come by referral from a friend or fellow networker. They qualify themselves because they seek a solution, and they want to buy that solution from someone they like.\nThe failed biter bit\nLast week my wife and I agreed to see a \u201csurveyor\u201d about perhaps having solar panels fitted to our roof. We want to help the environment and of course we want to save money from our electricity bills. So we had this person round and he brought his \u201ccompliance manager\u201d with him. They spent five minutes in the garden looking at the roof, but none in the house looking at our loft access or current wiring. It turned out that rather than being surveyors they were a two-handed hard sell operation.\nThese guys were in our house for two and a half hours. They were very pally and friendly. They filled in various forms and made estimated projections of savings. It was only on the last half hour that suddenly the offer was only for \u201ctoday\u201d, there was a credit agreement with a bank for us to sign, and we had to decide. Despite the fact my wife and I knew exactly what they were doing, there was that psychological pressure and we feel we had been ambushed.\nI said I needed time to look at their figures, and I could not agree to sign anything until I could go through them. They tried for several minutes to persuade me I was passing up a great opportunity and they tried to play my wife and me against each other.\nWhen it was obvious that they were not going to get signatures on any agreements, suddenly the palliness had gone and the \u201cmanager\u201d said they had to get back. They departed and it was obvious from their demeanour that we were no longer their \u201cfriends\u201d. They left no figures or other documentation with us either, which seemed very strange, and I still have no idea whether the offer was good.\nI could not sell like that, even if I had the ability. It seems immoral these days that anyone should be selling in this way, particularly in the domestic market where vulnerable people could be exploited. After all, even if it is a great deal on offer, no one should feel obliged to sign up to something they do not understand.\nDo you think I am soft and lack ambition to be very rich? I would rather be comfortable in my own skin. What about you?\nFiled Under: Sales Tagged With: Business ethics, hard sell, sales, Selling, soft sell\nDo keep up!\nHas your business changed in the past few years? Mine has. In fact, since I first started working in my profession as a young lad, the entire nature of what people like me do has changed beyond recognition.\nMy first proper job involved using a pen all day. On my first day I was given a pile of dividend counterfoils relating to the income of a recently deceased gentleman, shown the format in which I had to list his dividends for the year, and left alone to get on with it. This chap had had maybe a hundred shareholdings. It actually took me more than a day to write them out and to do some of the sheets again because I had not got it quite right. When the dividend schedules were finished, they were copy-typed.\nNowadays, if I had dealt with a client last year, his dividend list this year would be automatically generated by my software, and my only task would be to check for changes in shareholdings. Except of course that in modern times, far fewer investor-taxpayers have large portfolios of shares, loan stock or gilts. How I miss \u201c3\u00bd% War Stock 1952 or after\u201d!\nThe point is that we have to invest in new technology and we have to give our market what it wants \u2013 or rather something that they want, as our market consists of people. In my case the value is still there for my clients and the costs are in the software and in my knowledge and training rather than in handwriting schedules to be typed out.\nWe have to adapt constantly and I take no pleasure from a business failing because it makes a product no one wants any more.\nVery few people have milk deliveries these days, no one buys meat for their cats from a street seller as they did before the First World War, and sadly no one buys sheepskin coats, cosy as they were.\nIf we cannot adapt our businesses we must invest in new ones before the old ones fail. I try to keep my eye on the ball. Do you?\nFiled Under: Business planning, marketing Tagged With: listening, marketing, planning\nNo time-wasters?\nI do not like having my time wasted. However time-wasters are hard to avoid when they telephone to try to elicit free information or professional advice, even though they should know that free advice is not worth the paper it is written on, as Sam Goldwyn might have said, but didn\u2019t.\nI well understand the sentiment of wishing to avoid such people who just want to use us, but quite often I see small ads selling an item or a product, with that \u201cNo time-wasters\u201d prominent in the entry.\nIt just gives a bad impression of a grumpy person or business owner. The average would-be purchaser would want to avoid dealing with an angry seller, and time-wasters would be too thick-skinned to care and would turn up anyway.\nIf you are selling a product or a service and are writing any sort of copy, you want it to be attractive and to sound inviting, and more genuine than someone else\u2019s offering in the same market. That is why you need to explain what your offering will do to make the buyer feel better.\nComfort is what most people want. They do not wish to be scared away by someone\u2019s list of qualifications which most of us have, because they think such a list sounds pompous and expensive. They do not wish to read about a business\u2019s prestigious premises on the High Street because that sounds expensive as well.\nCustomers want to feel welcome and hope to get that nice warm feeling inside, and we all need to remember that when presenting ourselves and our businesses. Don\u2019t you agree?\nFiled Under: marketing Tagged With: customer, marketing, respect, trust, value\nSometimes business declines because there is a lack of demand for the product or service and no amount of clever marketing is ever going to increase sales.\nRecently I saw a feature on a news programme about a firm making sheepskin coats that would have to close if a buyer for the business was not found. Apparently sales had been in decline for a couple of decades.\nI would have thought twenty years was long enough for the owner to see that diversification or a complete change was what was needed to save the business, and the jobs of the skilled workers who surely could adapt to tailoring another product. Also, while everyone wanted a sheepskin coat thirty years ago (yes, I had one) hardly anyone can afford to spend \u00a3800 or US $1,340 for a premium coat to keep warm.\nI sympathise with those who wish to carry on the tradition of a company a century-and-a-half old but in the end all business owners have to think about preserving their income and that of their loyal employees.\nIf our business is not working we have to accept that there is something the matter. We must make the change. If we are stumped as to what to do, we must get help.\nWe all need help at times, otherwise we might be out on our uppers. That would be a real shame, wouldn\u2019t it?\nFiled Under: Business planning, Sales Tagged With: help, planning\nPicking good clients is like appreciating fine wine\n(Photo credit: Andr\u00e9 Karwath via Wikipedia)\nAs you know, I do like to be appreciated by my clients and do not like being seen as a commodity.\nI am not a wine snob. I do not know all that much about wine. However I do appreciate a decent claret. That is why I would rather give a good bottle of wine to someone who would savour it and appreciate the drinking of it, as opposed to someone who saw a bottle of wine as a means to an end; to get tipsy or worse.\nSo it is that I would rather have clients who appreciate my business services and with whom I can have that friendly relationship. Small business needs to be personal and should be enjoyed by both business owner and client, don\u2019t you think?\nFiled Under: Customer relations Tagged With: marketing, sales\nAre you making up the numbers?\nJust because I do not like to be seen as a commodity does not mean that I can influence the thoughts of everyone who sees my business offerings in that light. Unfortunately there will always be people, whom we may regard as prospects who will waste our time.\nRecently I gave up an evening to visit someone who clearly needed my help. I was able to give him some reassurance that matters were not as bad as he thought, and we agreed a fee. All well and good, I thought, and we seemed to get on very well.\nA few days later, after I had sent my engagement letter stating the terms and my fee which we had agreed, I received a letter from the prospect saying that he had changed his mind. He did not have the grace to pick up the telephone to tell me.\nI could not be bothered to try to call him because the only reason he would have gone back on his agreement with me (we had shaken hands) was that he had found another firm who was more than \u00a35 cheaper than me.\nI should be grateful that I did not waste any more time with someone who saw me as a commodity rather than a person who would hold his hand and keep him out of trouble with the authorities.\nIt is important for small business owners to establish a personal relationship with their clients; to have an understanding and expectation of what will be delivered, and when. It does not matter whether you are a baker, an accountant or a car mechanic. Your friendly face and your service are your greatest business tools.\nRemember you are not just a number amongst many.\nFiled Under: Business planning, Customer relations Tagged With: Customer service, planning, respect",

        "raw_content": "Birthdays, Check Point, Friendships, J.R.R. Tolkien, The Inklings\tby Clanmother January 3, 2018 January 3, 2018\nEvery year on January 3rd, Tolkien fans from around the world are invited to raise a glass and toast the birthday of this beloved author at 21:00 (9 pm) local time.\nJ.R.R. Tolkien lost his mother at an early age. Friendships were to be a steadying influence throughout his life. He was a member of the famous Inklings, a literary society that included among the notables, C.S. Lewis and his elder brother Warren Lewis, Owen Barfield, Charles Williams and Tolkien\u2019s son, Christopher. There was an earlier society, The T.C.B.S. (Tea Club, Barrovian Society) named after their meeting place at the Barrow Stores. The T.C.B.S. members continued to correspond closely, exchanging and critiquing each other\u2019s literary work until 1916. WWI took a toll on this band of brothers. Two of J.R.R. Tolkien\u2019s friends, Robert Gilson and Geoffrey Smith, were not destined to outlive the war. In Geoffrey Smith\u2019s last letter to J.R.R. Tolkien, the message was prophetic: \u201cYes, publish\u2026 You I am sure are chosen, like Saul among the Children of Israel. Make haste, before you come out to this orgy of death cruelty\u2026 May God bless you, John Ronald, and may you say the things I have tried to say long after I am not here to say them, if such is my lot.\u201d\nIn his writings, J.R.R. Tolkien celebrated and acknowledged the great deeds that were done in the name of friendship. He made good on his promise to his much-loved friend, Geoffrey Smith.\nJ.R.R. TolkienOxfordThe InklingsThe Tolkien Tree\nI have never read Tolkien, but my brother was a big fan growing up so I have happy memories of the two of us reading side by side.\nWhat precious memories! I read LOTR when I was 15. I reread them with my son when he was about 12 as a way to have him read aloud. He would read one page and I would take the next. There is something about speaking words that add significance. LOTR is an embodiment of Joseph Campbell\u2019s a Hero\u2019s Journey. Facing darkness without hope of survival. But it deals with a great many themes that speak to the narrative of humanity: friendships, forgiveness, power, death and immortality, father and sons, war, loss and farewell, nature versus technology and the list goes on. For me, the most significant was his thoughts on euthanasia, which is dealt with in the appendix that deals with what happened next.\nJ.R.R. Tolkien enjoyed writing long descriptive passages that could have been reduced, however no one would dare edit the grand gentleman. I have the book of his letters which give insight into his thoughts. His friendship with C.S. Lewis was a pivotal point in both men\u2019s lives: LOTR and Narnia. Ah, would it not be amazing to be a fly on the wall when they were sharing a pint. Thanks for stopping by, Letizia.\nLetizia\t on January 13, 2018 at 3:01 pm\nHow wonderful that you read his letters as well. The friendship with CS Lewis sounds interesting!\nChristy B\t on January 9, 2018 at 10:38 am\nTolkien deserves a toast, as do wonderful friends like you \u2764\nClanmother\t on January 9, 2018 at 12:06 pm\nThank you, Christy!! Sending hugs and a toast across the strait!\nmyplaidheart\t on January 6, 2018 at 2:08 pm\nVery interesting. That is one of my most favorite bits of dalogue from The Fellowship of the Rings.\nI agree \u2013 It is a wonderful quote! I keep it close by my side at my computer.\nMs Frances\t on January 4, 2018 at 8:34 am\nThank you for this post. I thought I knew a lot about the Inklings but I have learned more from this post! I like the photos of the tree made famous by Tolkein. I understand it no longer stands so brave and strong. Photos are important to remember things like this. I toasted our friend with thousands of others at 9 last night!\nClanmother\t on January 4, 2018 at 9:23 am\nThank you for joining in the toast. Yes \u2013 the Tolkien tree is no more! We visited the tree in 2013 \u2013 it seemed so strong at the time. I understand that J.R.R. sat under this tree and wrote about Treebeard! http://www.independent.co.uk/property/gardening/tolkiens-black-pine-why-do-we-love-old-trees-9650390.html\nelisabethm\t on January 4, 2018 at 1:48 am\nHere\u2019s to Tolkien! A wonderful gift to be able to bring so much enjoyment to the world!\nThank you for joining the toast! Did you hear that Netflix and Amazon of vying for the rights of a LOTR miniseries? The more complex our world of technology, the more we look to our myths and legends. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/tv/2017/11/08/lord-rings-tv-series-amazon-netflix-battle-land-rights/\nYou\u2019re probably right there, it\u2019s nice to have an escape. I\u2019m looking forward to a future miniseries \ud83d\ude0a\nLiz\t on January 4, 2018 at 12:01 am\nAh, the Maestro! A fitting tribute, Becky, thank you. We have a fansastc dramatised audio version of LOTR to which I am planning to listen through the year \u2013 happy days are those spent with riches like this! X\nOh!!! That sounds wonderful, Liz! There is something about settling into a comfortable chair, closing our eyes, and letting the voices come across the room. The oral traditions are still alive and well in our modern age. I think I will join you. I agree \u2013 \u201chappy days are those spent with riches like this.\u201d\nI will raise my mug of tea to you while listening x\nA lovely toast!\nThanks you for joining us in this toast!!! Hugs!\ncindy knoke\t on January 3, 2018 at 8:54 pm\nSuch an incredible person in so many ways!\nHe was indeed. I first read LOTR when I was 15 \u2013 and his work continues to influence and inspire.

        "raw_content": "Corporate governance in South Africa : the role of institutional investors\nCorporate governance has become the slogan of the global investment arena over the past decade. Corporate scandals and collapses with major loss to shareholders have noted a change in investors' attitude towards this topic. Corporate governance has not only become important for the survival of companies in the global economy, a set corporate governance framework too is required to merely attract capital for start-ups. This study focuses on the institutional investors in South Africa, and their attitudes towards current corporate governance standards in South Africa, and attitude to governance reform. The aims of this study: * To accentuate the significance, features and benefits of corporate governance in light of the empirical analysis; * To understand South African institutional investor environment better, and their monitoring and participating roles in corporate governance for investment in listed corporate entities; * Review the key criteria factored into investing, and how these are monitored on an on-going basis. Corporate governance criteria in specific was used; * Highlight the attitudes of South African institutional investors to corporate governance in South Africa, and their perception on corporate governance reform; * Review weakness in findings in light of the empirical study and analytical framework and summarise recommendations given the outlook for this sector. We introduce the topic of corporate governance and the concept of agency theory which highlights the reasons behind opportunistic behaviour which occurs at different levels within corporate organisations. We further discuss the change in attitudes of institutional investors on the back of corporate scandals, as well as the reasons and remedies of institutional activism. A background of South African institutional investors is also conducted, with a review of current legislation and corporate governance reform mechanisms applicable to South Africa. Following this is a broad literature review on the quantitative as well as qualitative information needs of institutional investors; this forms the basis for the structure of our questionnaires conducted. The last section draws on the critical findings and insights (including quotes from the interviews) on the role of institutional investors in South Africa, followed by the summary and limitations of this study.\nBhikha, V. 2015.

        "raw_content": "The macroeconomic impact of road construction in rural areas of South Africa\nThis paper examines the macroeconomic impact of labour based road construction in rural, underdeveloped areas. The macroeconomic effect is measured by the contribution to gross domestic product (GDP), number of indirect jobs created nationally, contribution to taxes and contribution to indirect household income for each of eleven rural road construction projects. The paper has two objectives. The first is to determine the overall multiplied impact of road construction in rural underdeveloped areas in South Africa. The second is to determine the macroeconomic impact of marginal changes in the use of labour and plant in road construction. Input-output analysis was used to analyse a total of eleven projects. It was found that the GDP multiplier ranged between 1, 34 and 1, 53 with an average of 1, 45. The cost of creating an indirect job ranged from R95 250 to R145 972 with an average cost of R113 835. The effect of substituting labour for plant in the construction methods is examined by means of sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis shows that as the proportion of labour increases relative to plant so the macroeconomic benefits increase and therefore by implication poverty alleviation.\nStandish, B., & Boting, A.

The crash caused life-threatening injuries to Barbee, who has not returned to work since.\nMcBride was found guilty on Dec. 13. On Friday, he was sentenced by Judge Andrew R. Erwin to 14 months in jail and three years of probation for his convictions of third-degree assault, reckless driving and second-degree criminal mischief. He also was ordered to complete 250 hours of community service and will have his license suspended for five years.\nHe will be required to undergo an alcohol and substance abuse evaluation and comply with all medical advice regarding his narcolepsy.\nBarbee's wife, Sherrie Utley, gave a victim impact statement imploring the judge to hand down the maximum possible sentence in the case. Her full statement is reproduced below.\nSenior Deputy District Attorney Jeff MacLean prosecuted the case.\n\"Safety concerns on our roadways don't just involve alcohol or controlled substances,\" MacLean said. \"Drivers must take steps to ensure they are operating their vehicles in a safe manner \u2014 and that includes taking into account any medical conditions which may put themselves or others at risk. We hope this sends a clear message to the residents of Washington County that we will take all steps necessary to protect our citizens and hold those who put everyone at risk responsible.\"\nMcBride was taken into custody after he was convicted by the jury and will serve the rest of his time at the Washington County Jail.\nThe Tigard Police Officers Association established a fund to help Matt Barbee and his family.\nStatement by Sherrie Utley, wife of Tigard Police Officer Matthew Barbee:\nI am the wife of Matthew Barbee. We met 19 years ago in Sandy, Utah, where we both grew up. We made Oregon our home in 2001 and have three kids. Our son Jaiden is 17, daughter Madeleine is 13, and Ashlin our youngest daughter is 11. We bought our dream farmhouse two years ago just outside of Vernonia after years of hard work. Before the accident, we had a small farm and were in the process of remodeling.\nMatt became a police officer 12 years ago and was working for Tigard PD. Before that, and since the age of 15, he worked in grocery. Being a police officer was his life. He got into the career to help people and his job was to respond to 911 calls. He had a talent for talking people down and resolving issues. He worked long hours and any overtime he could to support our family. He was the main financial provider. He was known in the department as being a goofball. He was not your typical police officer. He always looked for the good in people and approached each situation with a positive attitude and willingness to better the lives of all he met. After the accident, everyone that came up to the hospital had a \"Matt Story.\" He will never realize how much impact he had on all those that came across him or how much he is loved.\nOn the night of December 14th, our world came crashing down. I cannot even begin to describe the trauma my family went through. We were told that Matt would not live past 48 hours initially due to the extent of his injuries. If he did live, he would likely remain in a vegetative state and be paralyzed. The trauma/impact was instant. My son had to be checked into a facility in Tigard the next day due to depression and I could barely function due to shock. You have already heard of the extent of his injuries, but what you don't see is the chronic pain Matt is in daily, the inability to ever move his head in any direction for the rest of his life, nerve damage to his shoulder and right arm, loss of strength, the loss of self, his erratic and dangerous behavior due to the brain injury, and the inability to live at home currently.\nDue to his traumatic brain injury, he has essentially lost himself. In the brain injury community, this is referred to as a \"loss of self.\" He wants so badly to step back into his old life but cannot. Occasionally I will see glimpses of the man I have known for 19 years, but there are pieces missing and it is heartbreaking. The kids have had a hard time adjusting to his new personality as have I. We are grateful every single day that he survived, but there is not a day or moment that goes by that I am not reminded of how much we have lost. The grieving is never-ending. My heart often goes searching for the Matt I knew \u2026 my best friend, the only person that made me laugh on a daily basis and the love of my life.\nWe have had two incidents over the last few months due to his brain injury that have caused further trauma to the whole family. My youngest has PTSD, wouldn't let anyone touch her until a week ago and has been grieving through art \u2014 all of her pictures and stories in school and home are about death. She can't wrap her mind around the fact that her dad is here, but looks, sounds and acts different. My oldest daughter takes her anger and grief out on me and often retreats to her room. My son moved out after one incident that we had because he couldn't handle how things had changed at home. I went from a family of five to a family of three in less than a year.\nTraumatic brain injuries affect who a person once was and how a family once were. Relationships, family roles and responsibilities change. Interpersonal communication is a serious challenge as well as the whole family dealing with their own myriad of intense feelings of shock, anger, denial and depression. When it comes to a brain injury, we have a living reminder of the loss each day. Living with someone we no longer think we know brings a new world of challenges and trying to keep us all above water is exhausting.\nMatt struggles to do everyday things. Since he cannot turn his head, it is likely he will never drive again. It is questionable if he will ever work at any capacity and requires 24/7 care which is currently located out of state. He needs to go to the Brain Injury Recovery Center (BIRC) for months in order to obtain more intense therapy. There is a lot of pressure on me financially to maintain his level of care. Matt continues outpatient rehab and is working hard to improve cognitively \u2014 but we have seen little improvement the last six months. He has short-term memory issues, no fear response, and cognitively has a long way to go.\nAfter the accident, I had to get rid of all of our farm animals and his dream truck to cut financial burdens. He no longer has his farm, his truck, his mobility, his sense of self or the ability to do the things he loves. Gone are the days of remodeling and police work. He currently spends his days at doctor appointments, lying in bed due to pain or trying to stay on task. When he does do something, he is reminded of how much he has lost as the disability of his neck and head injury are debilitating. He is not even able to live at home because it is a safety risk for the kids at this time.\nGiven that Matt was the main financial provider, the financial harm this accident has had and will continue to have on my family is detrimental. The lifetime costs for one person to survive a severe traumatic brain injury can reach $4 million. The costs associated with the injury have caused immediate difficulties as we struggle to pay medical bills, a loss of Matt's income impairs the ability to service debt and in the long term, cognitive problems impact job and wage opportunities dramatically. This is a constant concern of mine daily as I struggle to support my family.\nAfter the accident, I put little thought into Darby McBride. I was too focused on willing Matt to live and holding my family together. I actually had compassion for him at the start. He is only five years older than my son. After hearing that he went to work the next day and had a \"I do not care attitude,\" reading the police report that clearly demonstrated his lack of remorse, and learning he had may opportunities to change the course of events that night, I now feel different. Especially after seeing his behavior during the trial which was nothing short of disgusting.\nDarby knew he had narcolepsy. He was advised by his doctor not to drive unless he was treating his illness, he was advised not to drink, he knew he needed adequate sleep and even stated he often went straight home after work to go to bed, he admitted the last three months his illness got worse, he admitted to smoking marijuana, he declined a ride home from a co-worker, and he chose to drink alcohol. This was not the first accident he has been in. In fact, he had crashed his car prior. My husband took every safety measure possible to ensure he was safe while waiting for a tow truck. Darby displayed reckless behavior and blamed everyone and everything for what happened that night. He still has not taken any responsibility or showed remorse. It was just a matter of time before he killed or seriously injured someone.\nDarby stated that he wanted a better quality of life and that it was hard to be him. I have an autoimmune disease and know my limits. I take responsible actions as any adult should and every day is a choice. It is a choice. Because of Darby's choices that night, Matt will now suffer the rest of his life. He has lost his career, his mobility, his sense of self, the option to live pain free, in debt, and without his family. What quality of life is this?\nJudge, I implore you to please sentence Darby to the maximum you can in accordance to the law as well as suspend his driver's license for the maximum as well. I do not think he is remorseful and will be back on the roads acting recklessly again. We have lost so much due to his behavior and choices and I cannot bear the thought of another family going through what we have and will continue to have for the rest of our lives.\nThank you for taking the time to hear this.",

        "raw_content": "Mini Guides Autonomy\nHow To Delegate Decision Making Without Descending Into Chaos\nImagine a word to describe your favourite sports team charging around on a field in orchestrated perfection. Coordinated? Efficient? Purposeful? Whatever you came up with, it probably wasn\u2019t \u201canarchy\u201d. But why is it that we can accept the best performing sports teams have highly autonomous players making split-second individual decisions all the time with minimal oversight, and at the same time think that applying the same principles to your employees will descend into chaos? Bad management, that\u2019s why.\nOvershare information\nEveryone on a sports field has close to perfect information about the current state of play. As mentioned in this post on the right people for flat organisations, information is critical if you plan on delegating decision making to employees. So much so, that the best strategy is to overshare information. Steve Jobs had this to say about Apple:\n\u201cEvery Monday we review the whole business,\u201d he said. \u201cWe look at every single product under development. I put out an agenda. Eighty percent is the same as it was the last week, and we just walk down it every single week. We don\u2019t have a lot of process at Apple, but that\u2019s one of the few things we do just to all stay on the same page.\u201d\nBroadly there are two aspects to accountability. The first is to ensure there\u2019s always someone directly responsible for any project or decision. There is no ambiguity in what the goalkeeper on a football team is responsible for. Again, from Apple:\n\u201cAt Apple there is never any confusion as to who is responsible for what. Internal Applespeak even has a name for it, the \u2018DRI,\u2019 or directly responsible individual.\u201d\nThe second aspect is actually holding people accountable. When I was doing my MBA (one of my dirty secrets), I\u2019d commonly hear people refer to wanting profit and loss responsibility. What this normally meant is they wanted the power, prestige, and pay of a senior role, but when push came to shove (e.g. they missed their targets) they\u2019d be the first to try and dodge the bullet. If you live by the sword you have to die by the sword.\nWhat most people don\u2019t realise is that the most effective accountability actually comes from peers. Research from Joseph Grenny (author of four NYT bestsellers) showed that broadly:\nbad teams have no accountability\nmediocre teams have members who are held accountable by their manager\nhigh performing teams have members who hold each other accountable\nThis is tangentially related to information \u2013 as feedback is a form of information \u2013 but in general it\u2019s far easier for someone with large amounts of feedback to operate autonomously. People need feedback for decision making; without it they can\u2019t adapt and optimise their performance. They also need it for psychological reasons; a feeling of competence at what you do is absolutely critical for motivation.\nTo overuse the sports analogy, most players know exactly how well they are performing at any point in time. A salesperson who gets immediate feedback on her performance (in the form of a sale), will normally be able to operate more autonomously than a software engineer who may be quite far removed from the business impact of her work (unless you do a very good job of setting targets for that engineer).\nIt\u2019s also worth noting that unexpected positive feedback (e.g. a random email saying thanks) has been shown to motivate more than feedback that occurs in a predictable pattern (e.g. a weekly review).\nAggressive decision making\nIt probably goes without saying, but delegating authority starts with letting people make their own decisions. While the \u201cFail fast\u201d mantra has become something of a controversial topic, few people would disagree that fast decision making is key to running a successful business in today\u2019s fast moving climate. Google is particularly aggressive about this:\n\u201cDecisions should never wait for a meeting. Otherwise, the velocity of the company is slowed to its meeting schedule. If a meeting needs to happen for something to get done, hold the meeting as soon as possible.\u201d\nTeams should be as small as possible\nFor all the above reasons, small teams are preferable to larger ones. They share information and feedback more efficiently, make decisions faster, and are more accountable. From Adam Lashinsky, author of Inside Apple: How America\u2019s Most Admired\u2014and Secretive\u2014Company Really Works:\n\u201cThe number isn\u2019t important, what\u2019s important is that smaller is better than bigger in terms of getting things done. Jobs recognition was this: we are now a big company and we need to do all these various things. But we can\u2019t have a large group working on critical projects. Small groups lead to responsibility and accountability. The same is true of the small group that runs Apple \u2014 the executive team.\u201d\nStill sound like anarchy? I hope not. Let me know if you have any other thoughts on delegating decision making at dan@peakon.com. Either that or we can talk about actual anarchist philosophy.",

        "title": "Thursday February 7: 2 Adar | Perry Stone",
        "raw_content": "Thursday February 7: 2 Adar\nIt was on this day in the year 553 A.D. that Emperor Justinian of the Byzantine Empire issued an order that provided for the public reading of the Greek translation of the biblical portion, or the Torah portion, that was being read in Jewish synagogues each Sabbath. This decision acknowledged the benefit of everyone that read the Scripture would literally be on the same page. Where Israel is concerned, the Torah portion cycle ensures that the entire nation is reading the same text and perhaps seeing the same things within the text. Not only that but there have been times that readers could easily see a connection between themes within that particular week\u2019s Torah portion and events that were happening in the world.\nWhile there is no commandment for everyone to read the same thing, there is something to be said for being in one accord and united. Regardless of the issue, there is great benefit to the Body and to the world when His people come together as one. As we see in Acts 2, when His people are on the same page, exciting things happen.\n\u201cWhen the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.\u201d (Acts 2:1-4).\nRather than focusing so much on the spiritual demonstration, let\u2019s look at the environment that the Spirit of God came into. God moved upon them when they were in one place and when they were in one accord inferring that this would not have happened otherwise. In other words, division, strife and disfunction impedes the move of God among His people.\nIf all the parts of the Body are drifting away from each other, or are moving against one another in conflict, the Body can\u2019t function in the way God intended it to. In John 17, Messiah prayed that we would be one, \u201cSo that the world may believe that You sent Me\u201d (Jn. 17:21). That strongly suggests that as long as we choose to divide over different issues and focus on all the wrong things, what God has determined to do among His people and through His people might be delayed. Those assembled in Acts 2 were not to leave Jerusalem until they had been empowered from on high. That meant that, until they were filled with the Holy Spirit, they could not fulfill the commission given them by Messiah \u2013 that is, to be His witnesses.\nMost people are never going to agree on everything and its not realistic to expect that we would. Yet, we do need to agree that it is in the best interest of the Body and those we are to be witnesses to, that we surrender our ego, our will and our way, that His purpose might be accomplished among His people. As the Psalmist said:\nBehold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious oil upon the head, running down on the beard, the beard of Aaron, running down on the edge of his garments. It is like the dew of Hermon, descending upon the mountains of Zion; for there the Lord commanded the blessing\u2014 life forevermore (Psalm 133).\nThere are many lives at stake; many are waiting for that encounter with you or, more importantly, the Spirit of God within you. Though they may not realize it, a desperate world is waiting to encounter a Body that is empowered by the Spirit of the Living God. But if they are to believe that the Father has sent the Son and see their lives transformed by His Spirit, we must, as the Messiah prayed, be one.

The MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) is considered as the most respected as well as challenging bachelor degrees (as it has two degrees combined into one) in the medical space.\nPeople often look up certain kinds of doctors/ physicians\u2019 online or try to find about certain specialties, which in turn, helps us to understand which medical professions really are in demand. Based on our study, we have come up with the medical specialities of Cardiothoracic Surgeon, Gastroenterologist, Neuropathy Treatments and Skin Allergy Treatment.\nSo, let\u2019s talk a little about the scope of these specialities.\nThese are surgeons who are specialists in operating on the heart, lungs and another thoracic (chest) organs. They diagnose, treat and perform surgery on those patients who suffer from cardiothoracic ailments. It is one of the most challenging and demanding disciplines of surgery.\nDoctors with this speciality are focused on the digestive system and its disorders of their patients. These doctors go through extensive training in the diagnosis and the treatment of conditions that affect the stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas etc.\nNeuropathy is a nerve damage condition which can stem from a variety of conditions like diabetes and from treatments like chemotherapy. It is often referred to a range of health conditions arising from the damage to the peripheral nerves.\nSkin Allergy is not any one particular disease. It may be caused by a variety of reasons like immune system disorders, certain infections and medications. When an allergen triggers an immune system response, the condition is known as an allergic skin condition.\nIndian Medical Industry needs to broaden the path of different types of jobs in the healthcare sector to cover all the specialities.\nJobs in healthcare sector",

        "raw_content": "work\t/ DETROIT - ABANDONED CITY 2010\nAbandoned Buildings of Detroit\nThis collection of photographs of abandoned buildings were taken on a recent visit to Detroit, Michigan, in the U.S.A., over the Memorial Day Long Weekend in May 2010.These images continue an ongoing documentation of my personal experiences within urban environments. Usually these responses take the form of small assemblages on plywood made from collected material or large paintings that appropriate readymade abstract design elements. Both formats are an attempt to record my day-to-day interactions within specific locales. Over the years I have also occasionally used the camera to record certain interesting narratives when it was not practical to collect material from or reference the experience through painted images. 'Star of David' Graffiti in Tel Aviv, Flaking paint in Alcatraz, abstract patterns painted on metal Shutters in Cairo and Neon Signage along Nathan Road in Hong Kong are examples of this where images are collated together to record the event. On this occasion, the visit to Detroit presented a similar opportunity to document my experiences photographically. Although I would not consider photography a major aspect of my practice it has nevertheless become, on occasion, an efficient means of recording data quickly and effectively. The exhibition \u2018One-Off\u2019 at Greenaway Gallery in Adelaide is an opportunity to explore more fully a peripheral part of my practice. Detroit is now part of what is termed the 'rust belt' of the U.S.A, which stretches across four states from Pennsylvania in the west to Ohio, Indiana and Michigan in the mid-west. The two decade long decline in industry has resulted in massive job losses throughout the region. Unemployment has forced many families to relocate to other parts of the U.S.A. leaving entire sections of the city abandoned. Detroit was once the proud industrial center of America and home to the Ford, General Motors and Chrysler automobile industries. It was known worldwide as Motor City, Hockeytown and the birthplace of Motown. These images are remnant reminders of better times. Detroit's proud legacy is now literally in ruins, the devastating result of introduced automotive processes that required fewer workers coupled with many industries being moved off shore. This has resulted in the collapse of much of the steel industry and the closure of many manufacturing plants resulting in widespread unemployment, an escalating drug and gang culture, prostitution, homelessness and a raft of social, health and economic issues. The lingering effects of the recent global financial crisis have only heightened the sense of hopelessness and decay found throughout the city. In 2009 Forbes Magazine named Detroit as Americas most dangerous city and in April 2010 CNN listed Detroit as the third most dangerous city in the world behind Baghdad and Caracas.\nThese images portray a city in crisis.",

We\u2019ve tried 2 so far. The first completely failed and the second did it right, but not feasible for a large scale production. We\u2019re trying a third one this week, which happens to be one the world\u2019s largest PCB manufacturer.\nSo we\u2019re still searching for a solid PCB manufacturer. In the event no one is able to do it on a large scale, we\u2019ll need to adjust the electronic design. No worries, it\u2019s going to be as functional as promised. It will just be a bit more expensive to manufacture.\nOn the other hand, the new overmolding technique we described in the last update looks promising. We visited one of the facility and we were totally impressed of the process! Again, this process will provide a clear shortcut for the shipping!\nTo summarize, we\u2019re having encounters to find the right PCB manufacturers but we would probably be using the overmolding technique. This will keep us definitely on track for the November shipping.\nOkay backers, this one is especially exciting.\nThe speakers Phazon will be using are made in Denmark \u2013 which are incredibly high in quality (impressive frequency response) and tiny at the same time. Long story short: we\u2019ve met with their representative and they freely offered us their experimented sound engineer!\nHe\u2019ll look into our earbuds to make sure we don\u2019t compromise on the sound quality. He\u2019s got a tremendous experience working with big audio names such as Sony & Sennheiser. The speaker itself is quite important for sound quality but there are many things to consider, such as the airflow in the earbuds.\nHey we got published by Forbes again! While they highlighted our unfortunate delay, we\u2019re proud to keep the trust of 99.8% of the backers. We don\u2019t mess around with the quality product we want to bring to the market.",

Against Yagisawa's Modal Realism.\nHyperintensional Propositions.Mark Jago - 2015 - Synthese 192 (3):585-601.details\nPropositions play a central role in contemporary semantics. On the Russellian account, propositions are structured entities containing particulars, properties and relations. This contrasts sharply with the sets-of-possible-worlds view of propositions. I\u2019ll discuss how to extend the sets-of-worlds view to accommodate fine-grained hyperintensional contents. When this is done in a satisfactory way, I\u2019ll argue, it makes heavy use of entities very much like Russellian tuples. The two notions of proposition become inter-definable and inter-substitutable: they are not genuinely distinct accounts of how (...) propositions represent what they represent. Semantic theorists may move freely between the two conceptions of what propositions are. Nevertheless, the two approaches give different accounts of the metaphysical nature of propositions. I argue that the sets-of-worlds view provides an adequate account of the nature of propositions, whereas the Russellian view cannot. (shrink)\nImpossible Worlds.Mark Jago - 2013 - No\u00fbs 47 (3):713-728.details\nImpossible worlds are representations of impossible things and impossible happenings. They earn their keep in a semantic or metaphysical theory if they do the right theoretical work for us. As it happens, a worlds-based account provides the best philosophical story about semantic content, knowledge and belief states, cognitive significance and cognitive information, and informative deductive reasoning. A worlds-based story may also provide the best semantics for counterfactuals. But to function well, all these accounts need use of impossible and as well (...) as possible worlds. So what are impossible worlds? Graham Priest claims that any of the usual stories about possible worlds can be told about impossible worlds, too. But far from it. I'll argue that impossible worlds cannot be genuine worlds, of the kind proposed by Lewis, McDaniel or Yagisawa. Nor can they be ersatz worlds on the model proposed by Melia or Sider. Constructing impossible worlds, it turns out, requires novel metaphysical resources. (shrink)",

'Further Thoughts on Rationality' by Tom Albertsson and Hubertus Fremerey\nIn this issue, Hubertus Fremerey and Tom Albertsson continue their discussion of Rationality.\nWe also have two pieces of work by Pathways students:\nOchieng Ombok from Kenya is nearing completion of his Pathways Metaphysics program. Here is his thought-provoking essay on idealism and the nature of matter.\nKay Critchett has just started The Possible World Machine. She was asked to \"Explore the use of possible worlds in philosophy, illustrating your argument with an example of a problem that involves the notion of possible worlds.\" Her short science fiction story raises an original and disturbing ethical question about time travel.\nTwo weeks ago, I posted a new application form on the Pathways web site, for students who cannot offord to pay for their Pathways program, or cannot afford the full amount.\nApplicants are asked to provide information about their financial circumstances, and also write a 400 word mini-essay on one of the following four topics:\n1. Do Flowers Feel?\n3. Why be Moral?\n4. \"This Sentence is False\"\nWe are especially keen to attract students from countries which have a poor exchange rate with the British Pound, for example Africa, South America and the Indian sub-continent. There are a limited number of places available, so if you think you might qualify, apply now!\nLet us posit an object, say, a cube. If we have to give its description to the best of our ability how would we go about it? Let me try to describe it. What is before me is a red cube. I move closer to it for a better examination and touch it with my hand. Then I add certain descriptions. I feel that the cube is hard and warm. I realize that it's producing some kind of smell that makes me want to taste it with my tongue. As I move my head closer, I happen to hear some kind of a humming sound emanating from the cube, and on tasting, I realize that the cube is salty. So, in totality, I have observed with my senses that the cube is red, hard, warm, humming, smelly and salty. Do we have a good explanation of what I have observed?\nLet us get help from Van Inwagen. Suggesting an account for physical objects in his Material Beings, he says:\n\"A thing is a material object if it occupies space and\nendures through time and can move about in space and has a\nsurface and has a mass and is made of certain stuff or\nstuffs.\"\nThis seems to be the common sense position of what we already have about the cube. But now, let us examine whether what we already know about the cube is enough for us to make a claim that the cube exists, or that we have actually perceived the cube. To us, something exists. Something which has a geometrical form of six squares enclosed to form a closed body, and besides this, it appears red, feels hard and warm, hums, smells and tastes salty.\nLet us bring in an unfortunate man (or woman) whose destiny is to lose one sense after another. First, he loses his sense of hearing. So, the very same cube appears red to sight, hard and warm to touch, smells and tastes salty. Secondly, he, unfortunately, loses his sense of feeling. So the cube appears red, smells and tastes salty. Next, he loses his sense of taste. So the same cube appears red and smells. Next, he loses his sense of smell, and the redness of the cube is the only sense perception that he is capable of. Finally, our very unfortunate man loses his sense of sight, and to him, the cube ceases to exist altogether, for he has lost all of the senses he requires for this kind of perception. Or does the cube, to him, exist unperceived? Can we claim that something does not exist simply because we do not have a sense or senses to perceive it.? If, say, some other beings existed who had an entirely different set of five senses from those which we have, is it not true that they would perceive objects that we do not perceive at all, and they would not be able to perceive those that we do perceive? If so, then it would mean that the objects that they perceive do not exist in our world and those objects that we perceive do not exist in their world. So, is there a third reference in whose world all these objects exist?\nLet us assume that the cube in question exists without being perceived, then we would realize that what we perceive through our senses are not representative of the objects out there, for if we eliminated all our sense perceptions, the objects continued to exist independently of our perception of them. We would also realize that our senses just made us believe that the qualities they passed over to our consciousness were the same as the qualities of the objects we perceive.\nAnd what would it mean on the other hand, if we assumed that the cube ceased to exist as we eliminated the senses? If this were so, then with the elimination of each sense perception of the cube, a part of the cube represented in our minds through that sense would disappear, and hence the cube would finally cease to exist. In this case, we arrive at the next questions. If the cube ceases to exist when the senses are eliminated, can we really be sure that it actually existed while it was being perceived? So, is the existence of the cube independent or dependent on our senses?\nLet us seek help from Bishop Berkeley. Berkeley's immaterialism is his denial that matter exists. To him, the cube does not exist at all. The cube is in fact an abstract idea whose relation to its sense qualities of redness, hardness, warmness, smell and taste is unknown. These qualities are just the ideas that effectively hide the true essence of the cube from our consciousness. So, if it is by these qualities that we know and identify the objects, then what do we remain with after we have stripped the object of all its qualities?\nIn his paper \"Whither Physical Objects?\", W.V. Quine says in part;\n\"...let us understand a physical object... simply as the\naggregate material content of any portion of space-time,\nhowever ragged and discontinuous.\"\nThis definition solves one problem and creates another. It solves the problem of having to define an object by the information gathered through the senses, but introduces the need to have a better definition or explanation of the terms portion of space-time. At least at this point, we have two separated sides of the investigation. We have the proceeds from our senses on one side and the portion of space-time on the other. Bishop Berkeley argues that the relation between these two sides is unknown, and that there can be no source of the idea of external existence. Therefore, to him, physical objects only exist within the mind.\nSo, where does this leave us? We have our portion of space-time on one hand and sensory perception on the other. And on the third side of the coin, we have Berkeley claiming that all that exists is the mind, that stuff onto which all that is perceived through the senses falls and interprets. Therefore, to Berkeley, all that exists are the ideas created by the mind itself and those that are impressed on the mind through the senses. But Berkeley denies the existence of that which impresses itself to the senses.\nAt this point, I would like to introduce an example of a surveillance system. The network consists of cameras connected to a computer, and in the microprocessor, and the memory of the computer, all that is found is 0's and 1's (Zeroes and Ones). The computer's consciousness (I don't know exactly what I mean by that) is able to automatically interpret these zeroes and ones to come up with an impression that makes sense to its mental world, (neither do I know this) but the computer cannot explain how it does this interpretation.\nWhen, in our investigations, we take the necessary electrical measurements at all points along the cables leading from the cameras to the computers, we get voltages, albeit of different values. When, however, we go out to see what the camera is recording, we see people of different sizes, wearing clothes of different colours, trees with different flowers, unaccompanied pets, trams, birds of a feather flocking together, vegetating policemen dozing on their feet and speeding vehicles of different makes and colours, including GK's Ford Escort [Program F, Unit 7] whose colour GK has never told us, escorting GK to GKW (i.e. God Knows Where).\nI would like to compare this to the sense of sight in a human being. We look at various forms and colours and also perceive motion. But all that we get through our optic nerves are sensations made of the same quality, albeit in different expressions. When these sensations reach our minds, they are interpreted in a way that is not clear to us, so that we can say that we have seen a red cube, a vegetating policeman, a round obese woman or GK's colourless Ford Escort-ing GK to GKW.\nThough we know that the microprocessor of the computer gets information in terms of ones and zeroes, it is not clear to us in what terms our own brains (or minds) get all the information. I would also like to compare the voltage through the cables leading from the cameras with the computer to the nerves leading from the eyes to the brain.\nAfter these comparisons, I would like the computer to take Bishop Berkeley's position. Let the computer say:\nAll that exists is the microprocessor.\nWhat the camera records does not exist.\nAll that exists is what is in the microprocessor.\nAll that exists is zeroes and ones.\nLet us go back to Berkeley and see what this leads to. What is the equivalent of zeroes and ones in our minds? What stuff is arranged inside our minds in order for our mental interpreters to interpret for us to understand? What stuff is this in our minds that is an equivalent of the zeroes and ones in QWERTY Keyboard ASCII convention and consisting of all permutations and combinations possible in our world and any other world that we can imagine? Rene Descartes and John Locke believe that physical objects are only mediately perceived by means of the immediate perception of the ideas they produce in us. But still, we remain with the question of the interpreter and what is to be interpreted.\nWe have dealt with the line from the camera to the microprocessor, or from the eye to the brain(or mind). Now let us go to the line from the object to the eye, or camera. From the object, both the eye and the camera perceive the reflected light. But the reflected light does not emanate from the object. It emanates from somewhere else and a part of it is reflected by the object. This reflected part is what we observe with our eyes.\nSo the reflected light is what we see.\nBut the reflected light is not the object.\nTherefore, what we see is not the object.\nSo, what is the object?\nNow that we have established above that what we see is not related to the object, then what is the object? In trying to answer this question, let us go back to Quine's portion of space-time. W.V. Quine forwards this theory in trying to answer this question. What he has actually done is to replace the term Thing-in-itself with another term. If the Thing-in itself and portion of space-time means the same thing, then what would be the shortcomings of taking Quine's theory as leading to a solution to this impasse?\nThe obvious question would be that of the essence of space-time or Thing-in-itself. Is it composed of Leibnizian Monads, or quarks, or superstrings, or waveforms? The question still remains unanswered.\n(c) Ochieng Ombok 2004\nE-mail: oombok@KENGEN.co.ke\nWhen I was an undergraduate studying philosophy in the 1950s, I used to wonder how anyone became a creative philosopher on the kind of instruction we received. This was almost entirely focussed on learning the arguments of the set texts and replicating them from memory, including precise definitions of the terms. It was a largely sterile slog.\nI suppose a great many of us are drawn to the subject by feelings of awe, wonder and ordinary puzzlement at the reality we find ourselves in, and expect philosophy to reflect these feelings and develop them for us. Being terrified of mis-representing a text or muddling definitions creates an atmosphere that is the opposite of what was expected, and leads to feelings of disillusionment, of having been cheated.\nPossible worlds provides a much more interesting stimulus for beginners, as the ideas involved are presented in a way that is easy to grasp, with a minimum of the technical vocabulary that makes so much philosophy difficult to read. The fictional form of the narrative, with setting, characters and conversation is not only entertaining in itself, but also easy to remember. As a consequence, the philosophical point being made is easy to remember, too. All of this helps when it comes to thinking the topic over later.\nSo, as a teaching tool, possible worlds helps the student \"see\" the matter under discussion and grasp its importance. After that, with the right teaching structure she can be encouraged to discuss her ideas and develop skills in argument. The teacher is of central importance in helping the student learn to think in a philosophical way, using her own ideas as a starting point.\nThe other great usefulness of possible worlds is that through them the writer can give a shape to ideas for which she does not have the formal background or vocabulary -- perhaps, even, neither of these exist -- and having given them expression, can offer them to someone else for comment and questioning.\nThis is not to say that major works of philosophy should never be studied in depth, rigorously, merely that it is an advanced form of study and other ways are more effective in giving students basic skills or opening our new topics.\nPossible worlds is useful, economic and entertaining as a teaching method, and, having the multi-level qualities of literature, is accessible to a wide range of readers.\n\"DAY OUT\"\nThey were all asking him, \"What are you going to do for your fortieth?\", expecting very little by way of response, as everyone knew Richard was too quiet and set in his ways to do anything very remarkable.\n\"Going to do?\" he would reply. \"Nothing much, as usual, I expect.\"\nThis was a direct lie, as he knew exactly what he was going to do. On 15 June 2503 he was going to take a time-trip. Only for a day. Everyone else took time-trips regularly, of course. And came home and told him of all the wonders they had seen and how he should go too. He had never tried it, but for some time now he had wanted to, for a very particular reason. On his fortieth birthday he would take the plunge.\nRichard was an amateur painter, with a special affection for Sarah Pugh, the great Swalian artist of the twenty-first century. Her first public exhibition had been, with other students, in a gallery in the small town of Bearcliffe during June 2003. Very little of this early work remained, and even less was undamaged, but a time-trip would allow him to see it all, as it originally looked. He hadn't told anyone, because he couldn't face the comments everyone would make about his catching up with the twenty-sixth century.\nSo, on the appointed day he presented himself at the travel agents and duly swallowed his time capsule. Reality spun, he seemed to fall down a dark spiral, there was a soft thud and he came to himself standing behind a large tree in a private garden. This was wrong. He should be sitting on a bench at a bus stop. He hastily removed himself from the garden before he could be challenged and found the bench on the opposite side of the road, just as the clock on a large building nearby chimed -- to his delight. He had heard about these clocks, but they had all gone by his own time.\nThis building must be the library they had told him about during his briefing, now opening its doors at half past nine. His exhibition didn't open until ten, so he crossed the road to make his first visit of the day and marvel over ancient first editions in pristine order, paperbacks (heard of but never seen before) -- and newspapers! Those delightful daily chronicles, all with today's date at the top. He decided to try and buy one to take home. The great thing would be to buy a painting and take that home, but that would have to wait until he made a longer trip. In the present a day only came once, and time moved on. As a time-tripper you could visit the same day as often as you liked, so if he returned next year or in ten years' time, he could still visit this day and find the paintings still in the gallery.\nIt was a beautiful summer morning and the streets were busy with traffic -- really funny old-fashioned cars -- and people moving about without restriction, just as he had been told. He hurried now, down the street, past a hotel (another landmark) and there it was -- the small gallery set back from the road. Once inside he was lost in the amazing exhibition set out before him.\nHe went round three times, totally absorbed, overwhelmed. In the end they told him the gallery was closing for the afternoon, (\"Shortage of staff, sir. We're very sorry.\") and he was out in the street again, his head full of colour. Time for a pub lunch -- a strange experience -- and a visit to the newsagent where he bought a newspaper and, not able to resist, something from the display of chocolate bars.\nThen it happened, right in front of him, as he waited to cross the road, considering with idle pleasure how to spend the rest of his time here in Bearcliffe. A car coming round the corner much too fast collided with a young cyclist who was thrown into the air and fell at his feet in a growing pool of her own blood. She couldn't have been more than twelve.\nHe helped as best he could, which wasn't much and in the end moved out of the way of those who could do more. Clearly he would have to return to his time before the police wanted to question him. His day was ruined anyway. And every other prospect of future time travel. How could you bear the weight of it? How could you make people relive such horror? And what about the rest of the world on this day? Had he called that into existence too?\nHe had travelled through time to a place, as one does if one travels across the surface of the globe, but where was the past? He'd never though about it. Was the past constantly re-running? He was forty. Some time traveller from the future could visit his past and make him relive some dreadful period of his life, like when he was being bullied at school. That would mean the future was real somewhere. But that was absurd. Wasn't it?\nHe sat on the bench, clutching his newspaper, a Mars Bar going sticky in his pocket, until he saw a policemen coming round the corner, when he vanished.\n(c) Kay Critchett 2004\nE-mail: kay@critchett526.fsnet.co.uk\nDear Hubertus,\nThank you for taking the time to read my essay, and for providing some very interesting historical insights. It is a bit unfortunate, however, that you seem to read opinions, positions and stances into my essay that I simply do not hold! You may be surprised to learn that I am a very strong defender of rationality, and so is Wilber. You say:\n\"I like this and I like the Tango, but as Kant had it we should first try to learn the upright walking of free persons.\"\nHubertus, I agree entirely!\nAbout 70 per cent of humanity is at ethnocentric (pre-rational) stages of development or below. Our greatest imperative is therefore to help our fellows to build a strong, healthy, integrated rational-egoic mindset and worldview (including of course the appropriate infrastructure and techno-economic base to support a rational, worldcentric culture). The rational mind is the first developmental stage that will understand such basics as universal human rights. Ethnocentric doesn't get it (unless it suits its less-than-inclusive objectives), and tribal consciousness certainly doesn't get it! Nor does the \"noble savage\" so mistakenly idolised in many Neo-Romantic and New Age circles. As you perfectly correctly infer, true spiritual development lies beyond the rational mind, which we must therefore develop first. It is an absolutely crucial developmental stage that cannot be skipped. What is blatantly partial, however, is to claim a full stop for human evolution at the rational mind stage, as I'm sure you agree.\nYes, of course I agree. And I feel relief from your assertions concerning rationality. Most people simply have FEAR. If you have contact to \"simple\" people (in Iceland, in Holland ??) you will know that those are full of the most absurd fears on nearly anything that is not \"as mother and father said it should be\". Most people in this sense simply are still \"living in hordes\". The worker has absurd ideas of what a manager does all the day, and the manager has likewise absurd ideas of what the life of the worker is like etc. etc. People are not even able to speak to each other -- they prefer to speak OVER each other with their friends and peers and only to stabilize their mutual pre-conceptions. When people are telling me how absurd and pre-rational those Iraqis and other muslims are, I remind them about those many Germans -- many of them teachers, priests and professors -- who followed Hitler with bright eyes even 100 years after the death of Goethe.\nSeen in this light, you may be lucky: The modern industrial and postindustrial western state is an oasis of peace and \"due process of law\" now if you look at the history of Europe since 1990 or even since 1945. This is a climate needed for people to even TRY to become spiritual.\nI think we are living in a transition now: After millennia of \"quasi-static\" pre-modernity we are now in a probably very short and hefty time of transition to post-modernity, and then we may enter (perhaps even in less than about 200 years) into a new \"quasi-static\" era again where all forms of spirituality combine to create a new sort of mankind. I have not read Wilber, but I think he has a similar idea.\nOne final remark: As you may have noticed, I sent a copy of my mail to Geoffrey and Daoud Khashaba. Geoffrey wrote that he will publish my mail to you in the next Pathways. He generally likes \"debates\". If you want to object or to add some more own opinions, then please contact Geoffrey on this.",

        "raw_content": "A Story about a Parent\nTeaching can be a pretty thankless profession lots of times. It often feels like a job where you\u2019re just a cog in a poorly functioning bureaucracy. We get fits of inspiration and gratitude from our students, passing \u2013 if any \u2013 encouragement from our beleaguered administrations, and an exhausting evening spent doing who knows what for tomorrow and the future.\nIn my career, the parents of my students have run the gamut. For every family with five daughters in college, there\u2019s the family headed by a single alcoholic father who is unable to cope with his life\u2019s tragedies. For every mother who sends the periodic note of gratitude, there\u2019s the mother who picks up their child in the afternoon without even a glance at me.\nI don\u2019t doubt whether these parents all love and care about their children, of course. Nor am I in a position to cast judgement on them and their circumstances. It is simply the way things are.\nThis year, I have thought about one of my girls with whom I feel I haven\u2019t made much of a connection. She\u2019s not a troublemaker, nor does she distinguish herself with an insatiable desire to please. She doesn\u2019t violate class procedures and routines, nor does she follow them with much consistency. She\u2019s neither defiant nor does she appear at all driven.\nShe is, in truth, a talented artist. She loves all mediums of art. And while she doesn\u2019t talk or write much or initiate conversation or focus for any significant length of time, there is a human being in there. So when she finds something to be too hard, she bangs the desk and groans. She becomes upset. She starts to give up.\nOnly in my class, giving up is not an option. We all signed a contract to that effect. Everyone needs to do their best and always try. It\u2019s non-negotiable. So when she\u2019s stressing an assignment too difficult for her, I tell her, \u201cCome on, you have to try. Don\u2019t give up. Do your best.\u201d Past her giving it another attempt, there isn\u2019t much acknowledgement toward me.\nAnd so, back to parents. It turns out this particular girl\u2019s mother found her way into my classroom this morning when the students were out.\n\u201cAre you Mr. Ray?\u201d\nShe told me whose mother she is. She asked how her daughter is doing.\n\u201cWell, she\u2019s really sweet and respectful. She\u2019s a really nice girl. But she is having a lot of trouble focusing.\u201d\nThe look says, \u201cTell me something I don\u2019t know.\u201d\nBut then, the gratitude.\n\u201cMr. Ray, last year, she came home every day and cried. She hated school. She didn\u2019t want to come to school.\u201d\nMy face says, \u201cHow horrible. That\u2019s so sad.\u201d Mom continues.\n\u201cBut this year, she comes home happy. She says she likes school.\u201d\n\u201cOh, that\u2019s wonderful, I\u2019m so glad.\u201d\n\u201cAnd she says, \u2018Mommy, I know I have some problems, but I\u2019m going to try. I can do it.\u201d\nAnd I\u2019m left speechless and touched. I thank mom so much for letting me know that. I feel less like a cog and more like the engine. Back at it tomorrow to figure out how to reach this special young lady.\nPosted in My Evolution as a Teacher, Special Education, Teaching, Year Six\nTagged education, elementary school, inspiration, special ed, special education, students, Teaching\nSome people are subject to the whims of the winds. They change positions like their underwear. They say one thing when they mean the other. They say they\u2019ll do this and then they do that. They tell you what you want to hear while thinking what they know is what they should be saying. They seem to be more concerned with being popular than being right.\nIn a school, it can be hard to be principled and grounded, but it\u2019s necessary. When we\u2019re talking about children\u2019s lives, the popular and easy opinion very often does not result in the best situation for them. So it becomes imperative to stick to one\u2019s beliefs and stand one\u2019s ground, regardless of who presents opposition.\nConversations with colleagues, supervisors, and subordinates should always be framed around what\u2019s right, just, and sensical. When we compromise our values, so many stakeholders stand to lose so much.\nWe have to be able to remember what\u2019s important. It\u2019s not being popular or having an easy path to take. It\u2019s about standing by your beliefs when you know, no matter what others say, that the less popular road less traveled is the one that makes all the difference.\nTagged education, elementary school, inspiration, students\nThe play each class in my school is required to present is draining. There always seems to be something else that needs to be done. Every year, we wonder how we\u2019re going to pull it off, and every year we marvel that we did.\nThis year\u2019s play was extra special. In my two previous years teaching self-contained special ed, I sought out colleagues in the same position. My reasons were these: 1) two or three small classes combine to make a stageful of kids, so that\u2019s good, and 2) birds of a feather have a propensity for flocking together.\nWhen the play wrapped last year, I found myself thinking it was time for my birds to fly a little higher. So I reached out to my co-teaching colleagues across the hall and asked if they might consider our classes working together on the play this year. To my delight, they said yes.\nWhy did I seek them out? I like the idea of inclusion in a classroom, but even better is the idea of inclusion in a school. I thought it would be a rewarding experience for everyone involved if my kids had the chance to work with students with disabilities in a less restrictive environment as well as their general ed peers. Turns out I was right.\nThis play featured 42 students, three teachers, and two paraprofessionals. It was an amazing collaborative effort for me and my students. Here are some of my major takeaways:\nOriginally, I asked my class who wanted to speak in the play and who didn\u2019t. I thought back to my days in elementary school, when the shyest kids appeared on stage but didn\u2019t speak or acted as grips, stagehands, and gophers. I wasn\u2019t planning to push the point with the kids who didn\u2019t want to speak, but my partners persuaded me to look at it differently. As I wrote the play, they said they wanted all of their kids to have at least one line \u2013 one chance to shine \u2013 and I realized I should want the same, even if it meant a push outside a student\u2019s comfort zone. Rewriting the script to include everyone became a challenge I enjoyed. It meant changing the story, adding characters, and finding group speaking parts for the kids who really would have been mortified to have all eyes on them even if for only one word. The end result: everyone had a chance on the microphone and everyone was an important contributor to the play.\nThis play brought out the best in kids who rarely have the chance to shine. It turns out that one of my students has been in my plays for three consecutive years now. I experienced great joy watching him grow from someone who, in first grade, just stood on stage and, in second, was removed from the play because he refused to practice and threw a punch when his space was violated. His growth? In third grade, not only did he practice with us every time, he danced, sang, smiled, and said his line with clarity and confidence.\nHe wasn\u2019t the biggest story. That distinction goes a boy who has been my major project for the year. Picture a boy screaming, crying, saying things that don\u2019t make sense, rolling on the floor, hopping, and showing no inclination toward socialization or schoolwork. Picture a boy crying on stage during rehearsals because the music was too loud, the prospect too scary. No way he would ever sit for the play or participate for it, right? Now picture him smiling, dancing, singing his face off, and posing for pictures with his mom, friend, and class after the play ended. During the course of rehearsals, as my colleagues and I determined the stage was a bit overwhelming for him, we asked him if he could sit there and then come off stage to dance. Boy did he ever. He had a starring role as a dancer and showed more confidence than I can remember seeing from him all year. The untrained eye wouldn\u2019t know he was \u201cspecial\u201d.\nThat brings me to my final point. My parents attended the play. My dad has time to do such things now that he\u2019s retired from his dedicated service to the city. My mom is a retired District 75 principal (the severest disabilities). They both said you couldn\u2019t tell the students without disabilities from the students with disabilities.\nAnd that\u2019s why I did this. It was an opportunity for my kids to be seen as kids and kids alone \u2013 never mind their low reading levels and other issues. To their credit, they had the administration smiling, the audience laughing, and their teachers beaming.\nKids are kids, no matter the label. Today my students made that point loud and clear.\nTagged celebration, education, elementary school, inspiration, special ed, special education, students, Teaching\nI\u2019m no worker of grand miracles. In fact, when it comes to schools, declarations of grand miracles accomplished are best left for the propagandists, movie makers, and politicians.\nSo with that logic, you\u2019d likely derive that nothing miraculous happens in my classroom.\nAnd I\u2019d derive that you\u2019re wrong.\nIt\u2019s a miracle when the light goes on in a student\u2019s head and she says, after doing a math procedure the wrong way 5 times, \u201cOhhhhh, nowwww I get ittttt!\u201d (And she does).\nIt\u2019s a miracle when a student stares at an addition question blankly, oblivious to its meaning, clueless to the steps needed to solve it, and comes in the next day willing to try again.\nIt\u2019s a miracle when, two days later, he gets the procedure down perfectly and answers all his remaining questions correctly.\nIt\u2019s a miracle when the student who seemed to know no high-frequency words at the beginning of the year seems to know all of them in February.\nIt\u2019s a miracle when the student who ran around the room, crawled on the floor, stomped his feet, and screamed for no readily apparent reason and seemingly incessantly, drastically reduces the frequency of these behaviors.\nIt\u2019s a miracle when a student who entered in December and never called anyone by their name suddenly knows the name of the teacher, the para, and everyone at his table.\nIt\u2019s a miracle when people walk by the classroom and don\u2019t think, \u201cOh, there\u2019s a self-contained class,\u201d but rather, \u201cWhat a diligent, hard-working class.\u201d\nAnd it will be a miracle when people with misguided opinions and loud voices finally realize what matters.\nPosted in Special Education, Teaching, Thoughts\nTagged acceptance, education, elementary school, inspiration, special ed, special education, Teaching\nTeaching 12:1:1 special ed means having to be flexible with who is in one\u2019s classroom. Aside from a steady stream of pull-out and push-in services, there is frequent movement across rosters for a variety of reasons. Just this year, I have moved one student into an inclusion class full-time, had another start attending math lessons in inclusion, had one switched out and switched back in, and had another one moved to another 12:1:1 with a different make up of students.\nAs often as kids seem to be going out of my class, it usually seems more are coming in. Last year, two came in. The year before, one came in. And today, for the first time all year, one came in.\nLuckily, the transition was made simpler by the fact that this girl had spent a few days in my class for math already. She reported back to her other teacher that she felt comfortable and able to learn in my class, so she was certainly eager to join full time. When she arrived with her desk midway through the morning, I was just a touch surprised that a change was already happening, but we made space quickly and welcomed our new student.\nOf course, she is learning our routines on the fly, which is difficult for her. I\u2019ve got kids and support in the classroom who can help her with that, and in time she\u2019ll pick everything up to the point that our procedures will be second nature.\nIt worked out that, at the end of the day, we had about 15 minutes left. I took the opportunity to do something fun with the class. Typically, it\u2019s a great first day of school activity, but it makes sense to do it anytime a new student joins.\nThe premise: everyone sits around a large piece of paper, with their names in front of them, holding a marker. You go around the circle and each person says something about themselves, such as, \u201cMy favorite thing about school is lunch.\u201d Everyone who agrees with the statement draws a line from their name to the speaker\u2019s. In the end, you wind up with a web showing the ways everyone in the room is connected.\nIt\u2019s always fun to listen to students react as the suspense is lifted as to what everyone will say. When one student said, \u201cI like puppies,\u201d a collective \u201cAww\u201d arose and markers drew lines without haste. When my para said, \u201cI love to read books,\u201d an exciting \u201cOoooh!\u201d rose from the collective voices and kids jockeyed for position to get their lines drawn.\nAnd when I, speaking last and seated next to the new student, said, \u201cI am so thrilled our new student is in our class!\u201d everyone said, \u201cOOOOOOH!\u201d and drew their lines with wide smiles.\nAnd who was the last to draw her line?

        "raw_content": "Christmas in Utopia\nSeeking spiritual perfection for eternity, the Harmonists built an economic miracle for a century\nPhotography by Heather Mull\nIt\u2019s early morning on Christmas Eve in the town of Economy, Pennsylvania. The year is 1828. Twenty-\u200bseven-\u200byear-\u200bold Catharina Langenbacher awakens to the five o\u2019clock gong of the grandfather clock in the sitting room downstairs. By the time she clambers down the crude staircase, her widowed mother is preparing breakfast. Catharina\u2019s 35-\u200byear-\u200bold brother, Romelius, is milking the family cow in the whitewashed clapboard shed behind the house. Romelius heads the household which includes another widow and her children. Although the two families are not related by blood, they share their domicile and meals as brothers and sisters. To make the most of The Harmony Society\u2019s communal living quarters, many other members live in similar fabricated families.\nBorn in Wurttemberg, Germany in 1800, Catharina came to America with her family when she was 4 years old. Part of a large group of German emigr\u00e9s, Catharina\u2019s parents had followed their spiritual leader, George Rapp, in search of refuge from the religious persecution of the state-\u200bsanctioned Lutheran Church. In 1805, the year after their arrival, Catharina\u2019s parents signed the Harmony Society\u2019s founding articles, agreeing to pool their material resources and live communistically in the new town of Harmony, Pennsylvania on the outskirts of Zelienople. Since then, the Langenbachers have twice followed the Society to build new towns on the American frontier \u2014 one called New Harmony, on the Wabash River in Indiana, and this one \u2014 Economy \u2014 Ambridge, Pennsylvania.\nThe town of Economy is self-\u200bsufficient. Vegetables come from the dooryard garden; meat, staples and beverages from the Society\u2019s 3,000 acres of farmland, orchards and vineyards. The bricks for their house were made at the Society brickyard. Their clothes woven from fleeces of the Society\u2019s flock of Merino sheep; cotton from the cotton mill; hats from the hatter; socks from the stocking maker; shoes from the shoemaker; crocks from the potter. They grow and manufacture enough for their needs and sell the considerable surplus around the world. What little they can\u2019t grow themselves, like the raw cotton for the Society\u2019s massive cotton mill, or the coffee they drink at breakfast, they import from around the world. Household goods are distributed through the general store which Romelius manages and where Catharina serves as counter clerk.\nAs the sun rises behind Harmony Ridge, morning\u2019s first rays of light glint off the Ohio River, just steps away from the Langenbachers\u2019 doorstep. Chances are the air was mild that morning as Catharina and Romelius walked the short distance to the store. Although the Commonwealth weather service would not be inaugurated for another seven years, a contemporaneous weather chronicle shows the Three Rivers open to steamboat traffic through Jan. 19, 1829. But later that winter, severe cold iced over the Ohio. The Langenbachers and their fellow Harmonists, however, would work in warmth. In a remarkably prescient use of the advanced technology of the day \u2014 steam power \u2014 they piped residual heat from the steam engine they used to power their cotton and wool mills to warm the town\u2019s shops and factories.\nThe Harmonists\u2019 exploitation of steam power exemplifies their pragmatic approach to a singularly spiritual mission \u2014 perfecting their inner spirits for the Millennium, the biblically prophesied time when Christ would return to earth to walk among his chosen faithful for a thousand years before the Final Judgment. Harmony Society founder and leader George Rapp had predicted the date of the Millennium nine months hence \u2014 Sept. 15, 1829.\nIn the minds of the Harmonists, this Christmas would be their last before walking with their Savior.\nStarting more than 50 years prior, in his home village of Iptingen, Germany, George Rapp had delivered stirring sermons advocating less ceremonial pomp and greater religious piety. As word of Rapp\u2019s fervor spread, his new sect increased. As it did, the official state church took anxious notice. When Rapp and his followers refused to conform to the tenets of conventional Lutheranism, Church authorities retaliated with religious persecution, civil fines and, in some cases, imprisonment. Rapp himself spent time imprisoned in the Iptingen church tower.\nIn response, in 1803 Rapp and three followers embarked to America seeking a place where he and his congregation might flourish. He came upon a tract of 6,912 acres near present-\u200bday Zelienople, Pennsylvania.\nThe following year, 557 of Rapp\u2019s estimated 12,000 German adherents made the trans-\u200bAtlantic voyage to build a Utopia in the American wilderness. Catharina and her family were among them.\nA practical approach to spiritual perfection\nNaturally inclined to self improvement and unswervingly confident that Christ would return upon the appointed day, Rapp drew upon an eclectic mix of scriptural, technical, intellectual and practical resources to prepare for the Millennium \u2014 from biblical prophecy, to advanced technology, to works of classical antiquity, to medieval mysticism, to the practice of alchemy.\nHis plan for salvation centered on a pair of biblical notions as they applied to his prediction of the Millennium: First, that the Harmony Society was the fulfillment of a prophesied Sunwoman from the Book of Revelation, who wandered in the wilderness awaiting the return of Christ, just as the Harmonists were doing in America. And second, that before God created Eve, Adam existed in a Godlike procreative state which obviated the need for sexual intercourse \u2014 a practice that would make the Harmonists more worthy of walking with their Lord when He returned to earth.\nIn 1807, two years after the Society\u2019s founding, Rapp instituted a policy whereby new marriages would no longer be allowed and married couples would renounce their roles as conjugal mates, living celibately as brother and sister.\nAlthough the Harmonists bore few children thereafter, those born prior to the celibacy mandate, along with some adopted outsiders and a few domestic surprises, were educated at the Society school where they were taught the three Rs, as well as music.\nTrue to Rapp\u2019s respect for intelligence and lifelong thirst for knowledge, he acquired a well-\u200bstocked library for the use of both students and adults. He established a natural history museum in the Society Feast Hall, complete with a collection of prints, paintings, replicas, taxidermies and specimens of plants, flowers, mammals, birds, fish, shells and minerals.\nRapp went as far in his classical and mystical endeavors as to build a shrine to the Greek goddess of Harmony in the 2\u00bd\u2013 acre garden behind his house; a medieval maze to induce meditative states of mind; and a rustic stone grotto with a classical Grecian interior designed to contrast visitors\u2019 uncultivated natural states with their refined inner selves.\nYuletide serenity\nAccording to the general store accounts ledger, probably penned by Catharina\u2019s hand, business on Christmas Eve, 1828 looks like any other day of the year. Catharina waits on customers, both Society members and outsiders. Engelhardt Autherieth, supervisor of the Society\u2019s numerous stonemasons, picks up 10 pounds of rice; Maria Neff, wife of Jacob, gets 14 pounds of sugar; and stocking weaver, Georg Schaal, 10 pounds of coffee. As Society members, the goods they receive require no payment but serve as compensation for the work they do without pay.\nFor nonmembers, such as hired hands and townsfolk, goods are purchased with money. For instance, on that same Christmas Eve, Charles Baker buys a pound of coffee and a yard of muslin for 34 cents. Brod Daniel puts $5.20 worth of sundries on his account, which he settles later. And Wm G. Berring purchases 2,355 shingles for $2.72.\nTomorrow is Christmas. Catharina will go to work as will every other member of the Society. Harmonists didn\u2019t spurn the celebration of the Nativity, but in the days before Santa Claus and Christmas lights, the birth of Christ was marked more by religious zeal than holiday glitter.\nAccording to a Harmonist song titled \u201cDecorate the Festival with Wintergreen,\u201d the day would have been heralded with laurel, myrtle, orange branches, and ivy draped across mantels and lintels, fence gates and sills. Each household had its own evergreen tree trimmed with candles, cookies, popcorn, and nuts wrapped in fancy paper. At noontime, the Society\u2019s children as well those from neighboring farms received a sack filled with candy, colored popcorn, an orange, English walnuts, dried grapes, figs, and dates.\nSociety members stopped work to gather in the Community Feast Hall for a sumptuous meal of ricesoup, roast veal and beef, apple schnitzel, sauerkraut, white bread, ginger cakes and wine. Talk was not allowed during the feast. Except for the shuffling of feet and the clinking of forks against plates, music played and sung between courses by the Society\u2019s orchestra and choir would be the only sounds the congregants would hear while indulging their palates.\nThe modest festivities fortified the effects of morning, noon and evening church services officiated by Father Rapp preaching from a seated position at the front of the austere church. Between services, feasting, music and song, Catharina and the other workers would return to their jobs. While clerking at the store that Christmas Day, Catharina entered in the accounts ledger John Riddle\u2019s purchase of coffee, tea, sugar, tobacco, flour and whiskey.\nFrom prophet to tyrant\nAs idyllic as life among the Harmonists may appear today, contention dogged the Society almost from the start. At the heart of many of the Harmonists\u2019 travails was George Rapp\u2019s domineering personality which from time to time provoked withdrawals from the Society, lawsuits, sex scandals, a mass secession, a state investigation and an open rebellion.\nEasily the most gruesome of Harmonist misadventures was the death of George Rapp\u2019s natural-\u200bborn son, John, who is officially reported as having died in an 1809 mill accident, but is popularly alleged to have succumbed to the ravages of being castrated by his father for siring a child in contravention of the Society\u2019s rule against sexual intercourse between spouses. In a gesture of paternal indulgence which evolved into a massive insult to his authority, the elder Rapp had granted the couple a dispensation from the prohibition against new marriages with the understanding that they would live as celibates, and had officiated at the wedding that gave rise to the unwelcome birth. After John\u2019s death, Rapp subsequently took a talented young man named Frederick Reichert as his adopted son and business manager.\nIn another regrettable episode, a charlatan religious leader who called himself the Count de Leon caught Rapp\u2019s attention long enough to lure away one-\u200bthird of the Society\u2019s members. When a dispute over a severance settlement evolved into a riot, the Pennsylvania militia was called out to restore order which, happily, it did without bloodshed.\nBut perhaps the exploit that most diminished George Rapp\u2019s standing in the eyes of his adherents was a late-\u200blife infatuation with a ravishingly beautiful young woman named Hildegarde Mutchler, who served as Rapp\u2019s assistant in his alchemy laboratory.\nIn addition to employing Hildegarde as supervisor over three laboratory workers, Rapp also called upon her to serve as the requisite virgin in experiments to find the fabled and fictive elixir of spiritual perfection known as the Philosopher\u2019s Stone. When word of Rapp\u2019s dalliances with Hildegarde reached his adopted son, Frederick, the younger man vituperated that he, not Hildegarde, should be Rapp\u2019s virgin and accused his father of violating the Harmonist policy of celibacy.\nWhether or not George Rapp\u2019s relationship with Hildegarde ever became intimate, the perception of a 70-\u200byear-\u200bold prophet of the Millennium and advocate of celibacy being smitten by an ing\u00e9nue, at the very least made George Rapp look like a doting old fool in the eyes of his followers.\nAs we know today, George Rapp\u2019s predicted date of Christ\u2019s return came and went without incident.\nDespite having failed at his spiritual mission, George Rapp had initiated, perhaps unwittingly, one of the grandest social experiments and astounding economic successes in U.S. history. Having come to America in 1804, all but penniless, Rapp by 1844 had stashed away more than half a million dollars in gold and silver in the Society\u2019s vault. The Harmony Society\u2019s efforts to attain spiritual salvation had transformed it into an economic powerhouse rivaling the treasuries of cities, states and nations.\nIn 1824, when America\u2019s average per capita wealth was $200, the Harmonists\u2019 was $2,000. In 1816, the Society loaned the new state of Indiana $5,000. In 1826, Pittsburgh\u2019s mayor, John Snowden solicited, Rapp\u2019s adopted son, Frederick, for a loan of $20,000 to fund a water system for the city. During the Panic of 1837, the vault in George Rapp\u2019s house is reputed to have contained more gold and silver than the United States Treasury. In 1853, the president of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad arranged to borrow $200,000 from the society. Such was the Harmonists\u2019 economic prowess that they founded their own bank \u2014 the Economy Savings Institution.\nFollowing George Rapp\u2019s death in 1847, at the age of 89, administration of the Harmony Society was turned over to a pair of trustees and a board of elders. Catharina\u2019s brother, who had anglicized his name to R.L. (Romelius Langenbacher) Baker, served as one of the trustees. The other was Jacob Henrici, who had succeeded Rapp\u2019s adopted son Frederick as business manager upon his death in 1834.\nFinal irony\nDespite the Harmonists\u2019 extraordinary economic success over almost a century, the seeds of their demise had been planted in their early attempt to achieve spiritual perfection by eschewing conjugal relations between spouses. As they grew older, the childless Harmonists were forced to rely on hired help to work their land and run their businesses. By the time Catharina Langenbacher died in 1874, fewer than 40 Harmonists remained \u2014 none with blood heirs. In the 1890s, as the last Harmonists were preparing to die, one of the Society\u2019s adopted children, a dissembling musician named John Duss, became the Society\u2019s principal trustee. By then, the Society had investments in railroads, oil wells, coal, timber, and banking operations as well as ownership of a dozen manufacturing companies, many of which were losing money.\nPurportedly concerned for the Society\u2019s financial stability, Duss conducted the first formal audit of the Society\u2019s financial condition, to find many of its business ventures in dire financial straits. Duss embarked upon a campaign of divestiture and restructuring which he claimed saved the Society from financial ruin. Once financial matters were put straight, Duss embarked upon a campaign to fleece the Society of its remaining wealth. He resigned his commission as trustee and installed his wife in his stead. He then assembled an orchestra and toured the United States on the Society\u2019s tab.\nIn 1905, exactly 100 years after its founding, the last two living Harmonists, one of whom was John Duss\u2019 wife, Susie, decided to close the Society. The move precipitated a decade-\u200blong court battle. In 1916, the Dusses were awarded all of the Harmony Society\u2019s remaining assets except for the two-\u200bblock core of the Society\u2019s buildings and $15,000, which went to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, enabling the establishment of Old Economy Village, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission\u2019s first historic site.\nToday, Old Economy Village is open to the public five days a week in testament to a grand social experiment in 19th century America. At Christmas time, visitors enjoy Christmas at the Village \u2014 a weekend not unlike Catharina\u2019s Christmas Eve and Day in 1828. The cotton and wool mills are gone, but the Langenbacher residence and the general store still stand amidst the rest of the preserved brick buildings and whitewashed clapboard sheds. The shrine to Harmony and the Stone Grotto adorn the Rapp House Garden which is now tended by volunteers. A seven-\u200bfoot grandfather clock stands in the sitting room beneath Catharina\u2019s bedroom. And the general store is just a few steps away.\nIf you close your eyes while standing at the counter, it\u2019s easy to imagine Catharina in her bonnet and apron reaching for a bolt of cloth or scooping a measure of pepper from an earthenware crock while chatting with customers against the whirring of mills in the distance and the clucking of hens in the yards and the lowing of cows in the pastures.\nTwo centuries later it still feels like Utopia on the Ohio.\nEconomy, Pennsylvania\nThe Harmony Society\nTom Imerito\nTom Imerito is president of Science Communications, a Pittsburgh technology communications consultancy.\nA Quick Pittsburgh Holiday Tour\nFor quick holiday cheer without leaving your desk, view the gallery below of some seasonal attractions in the Pittsburgh region.

Here\u2019s my first statement:\nI AM DISAPPOINTED IN MY BODY BECAUSE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO KEEP LOOKING YOUNG AND AMAZING FOREVER, WITH NO EFFORT ON MY PART AT ALL.\n(That\u2019s hard to admit, but when it comes down to it, it\u2019s true. I\u2019m mad that I have to start exercising, since the first 38 years of my life have been cake. Literally. Cake and cookies and whatever I wanted to eat and I weighed 95 lbs.)\nso then you ask yourself, \u201c1. is that true? and 2. can you really know that to be true?\u201d\nNO, THAT\u2019S NOT TRUE. IF I DIDN\u2019T HAVE THIS ALARM GOING OFF WITH MY BODY TO GET OUT THERE AND EXERCISE, I WOULD NEVER GET OUT THERE, AND WOULD NEVER WORK ON MY HEALTH AT ALL. THE VANITY OF WANTING TO LOOK BETTER REALLY PUSHES ME TO GET TO THE GYM. THE RESULTS? MY DEPRESSION AND STRESS VANISH.\nnext question is, \u201c3. when you think that thought, how do you feel?\u201d\nWHEN I THINK ABOUT BEING DISAPPOINTED IN MY BODY BECAUSE IT DOESN\u2019T LOOK LIKE IT USED TO, I FEEL EVEN OLDER AND BITTER. I HAVE A CHAIN REACTION OF TOXIC THOUGHTS THAT RIP THROUGH MY MIND SO FAST THAT I CAN\u2019T EVEN CONTROL THEM. IT STARTS WITH, \u201cI WISH I LOOKED LIKE I DID WHEN I WAS 25\u201d AND GOES IMMEDIATELY TO \u201cMY HUB IS 27. ISN\u2019T HE GOING TO LEAVE ME FOR A YOUNGER WOMAN EVENTUALLY?\u201d WHICH I KNOW ISN\u2019T TRUE. I HONESTLY DON\u2019T WORRY ABOUT STUFF LIKE THAT, BUT THE MIND CAN REALLY SABOTAGE YOUR HAPPINESS. MY MOM CALLS IT THE DEVIL. WHEREVER IT\u2019S COMING FROM, WE HOLD THE POWER TO UNDO OUR THINKING.\nthe last question: \u201c4. who would you be without that thought?\u201d\nTHIS IS MY FAVORITE QUESTION OF ALL OF THEM. I FEEL MY SHOULDERS IMMEDIATELY RELAX WHEN I EVEN READ THIS QUESTION. WHO WOULD I BE WITHOUT THINKING THAT MY BODY SHOULD BE YOUNGER, BETTER, THINNER, STRONGER? I\u2019LL TELL YOU WHAT I WOULD BE ~ YOUNGER, BETTER, THINNER, STRONGER. I WOULD HAVE NOTHING IN MY WAY. I WOULD GET TO THE GYM WITH NO BURDENS. I WOULD JUST GO AND ENJOY MYSELF. I CAN BE ALL THOSE THINGS RIGHT NOW AND SO CAN YOU.\nand then you\u2019re supposed to turn around the thought and change the wording so that you see the real issue. but i don\u2019t even need to do this because question #4 has a grip on me and i could be happy for the next 24 hours just thinking that thought.\nand that\u2019s just one statement on the worksheet. there are six total, and i wrote them all out this morning, after my walk. talk about a healing morning!\nand now i\u2019m going to the grocery store to buy veggies and the best dip ever. craving some crudite. the dip is the KNORR spring veggie soup mix ~ dip recipe on the back. i\u2019m gonna make it with greek yogurt instead of mayo. it has spinach and water chestnuts in it and it is so incredible!\npixy73 May 8, 2012 May 8, 2012\nNext Next post: thurrrrrrzdee.",

        "raw_content": "China challenge an opportunity for the Australian recycling industry\nChina\u2019s restriction on the import of waste materials has presented a short term challenge but in the long term, the Australian recycling sector has the potential to flourish as consumers, businesses and the government build a circular economy.\nInitially dubbed the \u2018National Sword\u2019, the restrictions, announced in July of 2017 by the Chinese government, took effect on 1 January 2018 and stopped the import of 24 categories of waste material above a specified contamination level. For paper/cardboard and plastics, the contamination rate has been set at 0.5%.\nWhatever drove this decision should have a positive impact on the environment in China and Australia. It should lead to Chinese manufacturers turning to their domestic market for recycled materials.\nIt has been reported that in Australia alone, 1.27 million tonnes of materials per annum may be affected by the restrictions, including paper, cardboard and plastic. To put this into perspective, this is only about 3% of total recycling in Australia when you include commercial and industrial, construction and demolition, and kerbside recycling. The big impact though is on kerbside recycling with about 29% of paper and 36% of all plastics collected affected by China\u2019s policy.\nChina\u2019s decision has also has led a recycling division with some waste companies no longer accepting kerbside recycling. Some of these materials will be stockpiled until it is viable for them to be processed in Australia, or sent overseas to countries such as Malaysia and Vietnam for recycling. Unfortunately, some will probably be landfilled.\nEveryone\u2019s challenge\nThis is everyone\u2019s challenge to face. Recycling is considered an essential service by the community and the War on Waste has demonstrated that people want to do the right thing.\nHouseholds can reduce recycling contamination by making sure that they\u2019re recycling right, and help support the domestic waste and manufacturing sector by buying products made from locally recycled materials.\nBusinesses can design their packaging for recyclability and work together to increase the amount of recycled content in their products and packaging. The Australasian Recycling Label through the PREP Design tool will help encourage this.\nGovernments could support councils affected by the restrictions and provide incentives for Australian businesses to recycle and manufacture products made from recycled materials to support a domestic circular economy. This will not only bring long term employment but also sustainable economic growth. There have been calls for Federal leadership on this issue and a monitored and updated National Waste Policy is key to this.\nBy collaborating and investing in recycling education, separation systems to reduce contamination, increasing the recycled content of products, as well as research into new material uses, we can make real progress to becoming a world class circular economy.\nPlanet Ark encourages Australians to use these resources and play their part in reducing recycling contamination and building the circular economy:\nRecyclingNearYou.com.au \u2013 ensure you\u2019re recycling right at this \u2018one stop shop\u2019 of recycling information for the householder.\nBusinessRecycling.com.au \u2013 find out what your workplace can do to recycle more and waste less.\nAustralasian Recycling Label \u2013 look out for the label on products and ask brands to use it.\nRecycled Products - buy it back by purchasing products and packaging made with recycled content",

Barb prepared for writing this work by taking a number of writing classes, and has been clear throughout the process about the need to use plain language and that her voice be honoured. Supporting her has taught us a great deal.

As I said, a colleague of mine had actually recommended him initially; I would do the same thing. Friendly, down to earth, very good about explaining what he's doing.

        "raw_content": "29 EU Ambassadors Slammed Trump In Open Letter, Read It Here:\nTwenty-nine European Union ambassadors to the U.S. sent an open letter to Donald Trump via The Washington Post on Friday criticizing him for his trade policies.\nThe letter comes after Trump imposed steep aluminum and steel tariffs on the EU and other U.S. allies, a move that led many to criticize the president.\n\u201cSimply put, the E.U. invests more in the United States, buys more American services and employs more American workers than the other way around,\u201d the letter reads. \u201cAs a ready comparison: 45 of 50 U.S. states export more to the E.U. than they do to China. And what of China\u2019s foreign direct investment into the United States? It\u2019s around one-hundredth that of Europe\u2019s.\u201d\n\u201cBut, as with any partnership,\u201d the letter continued, \u201cthe prospect of unilateral action by one side, to the detriment of the other partner, places the entire mutually beneficial relationship at risk.\u201d\n\u201cTogether we should tackle intellectual property theft and look at how we can further reduce red tape, regulatory barriers and tariffs between us \u2014 facilitating innovation and investment, to the mutual benefit of business and consumers on both sides of the Atlantic,\u201d the letter concludes. \u201cThis, not tariffs and quotas, would be moving in the right direction.\u201d\nTrump received criticism after his statement on Friday morning urging the G-7 to invite Russia back.\n\u201cWhether you like it or not, and it may not be politically correct, but we have a world to run,\u201d Trump said early Friday morning. \u201cAnd in the G-7, which used be the G-8, they threw Russia out. They should let Russia come back in because we should have Russia at the negotiating table.\u201d\n\u201cThe six countries of the G-7 without the United States, are a bigger market taken together than the American market,\u201d Frech President Emmanuel Macron said during a joint press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday. \u201cThere will be no world hegemony if we know how to organize ourselves.

        "raw_content": "I am a leader, strategic marketer and communications professional. I specialize in the higher education industry and help small businesses take the overwhelm out of marketing. Here\u2019s my official bio.\nRachel Reuben believes in the power of higher education, and the profound effect it has on the lives of students\u2014and, by extension, the global community. A seasoned veteran in marketing and communications in the higher education industry, she has worked on staff in leadership positions in both public and private institutions, as well as with marketing agencies. She now fuses that experience into a comprehensive, strategic approach to marketing that identifies challenges and develops creative solutions to improve marketing processes. As a result, she is able to help colleges and universities find and effectively communicate with prospective students, as well as provide ongoing stewardship as they transition into their roles as alumni. Rachel Reuben Consulting is a certified New York State Women-owned Business Enterprise (NYS WBE).\nAfter earning her bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s degree while working full-time, Rachel was recruited for a position at the State University of New York at New Paltz. For the first time, she saw how tight higher education budgets really are, and how hard universities work to offer the best possible services at the best value. The concept of using a student\u2019s tuition dollars in the most fiscally conservative way possible has stayed with her throughout her 20-year career as a higher education professional.\nRachel is simply one of the most insightful and experienced higher ed marketing professionals in our industry.\nRachel has led marketing and communications departments at several colleges. In her role as vice president of communication at Colgate University, she provided strategic communication counsel to former President Jeffrey Herbst and his senior leadership team, trustees, and university colleagues. She also developed a crisis communication and issues-management program, including extensive standard operating procedures documentation.\nAs the associate vice president for marketing communications at Ithaca College, Rachel spearheaded a new brand identity and strategy, including a brand-awareness advertising campaign. She co-authored the college\u2019s first institutional strategic marketing plan, implemented integrated marketing tactics, and created a trademark and licensing program. Under her leadership, the Office of Marketing Communications transformed into a more flexible and effective team, providing support and strategic advisement to the broader college community. In addition, she led efforts in advancement communications, athletic communications, client marketing services, editorial services, media relations, creative services, and recruitment marketing.\nShe has also served as the director of web communication, strategic projects, and the welcome center at her alma mater, SUNY New Paltz, where she earned her bachelor of science in organizational communication and her MBA in marketing and management.\nRachel has worked alongside boards of trustees, university presidents and their councils or cabinets, and key stakeholders such as university-wide marketing councils. She also works with select marketing-related agencies who serve higher education as a subcontractor for assessments, web strategy, brand strategy launch implementation planning, and more.\nWhile Rachel has found her strategic work tremendously rewarding, at heart she\u2019s a doer. Her approach to working with clients starts with listening closely to their needs and challenges, then applying creative problem-solving skills. Working at both the big-picture and detail level, she is able to help colleges and universities develop marketing processes and programs that are customized to their needs, and then help implement them. Her extensive experience in marketing and leading teams means she\u2019s able to steer an institution through a variety of challenging situations\u2014from staff turnover to identifying marketing-agency partners and crisis communications\u2014always ensuring that milestones are met on time and on budget.\nHigher Education Positions Held\nAssociate Vice President for Marketing Communications\nDirector of Web Communication & Strategic Projects\nRachel is a sought-after speaker for a variety of higher education events. She has presented at dozens of conferences and educational events, among them the American Marketing Association\u2019s Symposium for the Marketing of Higher Education, the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE), the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), eduWeb, HighEdWeb, the University and College Designers Association (UCDA), the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), Statmats, and the State University of New York Council for University Advancement (SUNY CUAD).\nA multi-award-winning communications leader, Rachel\u2019s work has been featured in The Chronicle of Higher Education, University Business, CASE Currents, Campus Technology, and on many blogs. She was an early adopter of social media and pioneered its use in marketing higher education.\nRachel lives in the Hudson Valley region in New York. She enjoys connecting people and businesses and is a dedicated member of several community organizations, including her local chamber of commerce, her church, and Hudson Valley Women in Business. She serves on the advisory board for One EPIC Place, a creative co-working and business incubator hub.\nBronze CUPPIE award, the Association for University Communicators for the category \u201cElectronic Media \u2013 Social Media\u201d for \u201cLife at IC,\u201d 2013\nBronze CUPPIE award, the Association for University Communicators for the category \u201cPrint Publications: Magazines\u201d for Ithaca College Fuse Magazine, 2013\nGold CUPPIE award, the Association for University Communicators for the category \u201cAdvertising \u2013 Complete Campaign\u201d for the Ithaca College \u201cReady\u201d advertising campaign, 2012\nGold CUPPIE award, the Association for University Communicators for the category \u201cElectronic Media \u2013 Website\u201d for the Ithaca College website (ithaca.edu), 2012\neduStyle\n2009 eduStyle Best Higher Education Blog, .eduGuru, staff writer Nov. 2008 \u2013 Jan. 2010Graphic Design USA\nAwards of Excellence in the 2012 American Graphic Design Awards\nIthaca College Fuse magazine\nReady campaign advertisements\nInternational Brand Master Finalist\nEducational Marketing Group\u2019s 2013 International Brand Master Nominee and Finalist\nSigma Beta Delta International Business Honor Society\nHonorary member 2007, MBA graduate student 2009\nSUNY Council for University Advancement Awards for Excellence\n2008 Best of Category: Electronic Communications and Interactive Media/Social Networking \u2013 SUNY New Paltz Facebook Fan Page\n2007 Best of Category: Community Relations Programs \u2013 SUNY New Paltz Welcome Center\n2006 Judge\u2019s Citation: Student Recruitment Web site \u2013 npbloggers.newpaltz.edu\n2005 Judge\u2019s Citation: Student Recruitment Web site \u2013 Faces of New Paltz\n2005, 2000 & 1999 Best of Category: University Web site \u2013 www.newpaltz.edu\n2002 Best of Category: Media Relations \u2013 SUNY New Paltz News & Experts\n1999 SUNY Confederation of Alumni Associations: Internet Sites and Electronic Communication \u2013 SUNY New Paltz Office of Alumni Affairs Web site\n2012 Award of Excellence: Ready campaign video\nRachel Reuben provided valuable enrollment marketing support to Teachers College as we were launching new online programs and growing our operation. From the outset, she proved to have deep technical and structural knowledge, experience and savvy in the higher ed landscape\u2013all of which helped us to make sound decisions and to be more nimble. She consistently demonstrated an extremely high level of professionalism and organization in her work, and she is notable in her ability and willingness to offer both high-level strategic counsel, and a roll-up-your-sleeves approach to getting things done.\nRachel is solutions-driven and excelled at spearheading projects that involved research and quick turnarounds, driving and supporting social media and email marketing campaigns through writing, vendor relations, execution and data analysis. Rachel is also a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend her to businesses and institutions looking for marketing support.\nSara Clough\nSenior Director of Strategic Communications, Teachers College, Columbia University\nDr. Douglas Hicks\nFormer Provost, Colgate University\nRachel\u2019s deep knowledge of higher education, as well as her extensive contacts in the industry, were invaluable to us when we engaged Rachel to assist with product planning and market assessment. Rachel was easy and flexible to work with and she delivered critical insight in a short turnaround. I would not hesitate to recommend Rachel to any organization that wants a higher ed thought leader involved in their project. She\u2019ll deliver.\nAmy Mengel\nFormer Vice President of Marketing, Merit\nI\u2019ve worked with Rachel at both Ithaca College and Colgate University. She is a consummate professional\u2013 her ability to develop big-picture solutions for campus problems is impressive. She is well aware of her own strengths and assembles teams to compliment her skill sets. Her marketing insights not only incorporate data and employ campus-specific strategies, they allow for aspirational growth by the institution. She is an asset to her fellow cabinet members and is a trustworthy colleague.\nTeresa Valerio Parrot\nPrincipal, TVP Communications\nRachel is a delight to work with and know. I\u2019ve been in the higher ed business for almost 25 years and I couldn\u2019t recommend her more highly. She\u2019s smart, funny, intuitive, driven, clear and an absolute expert in all things marketing communications. She knows how to develop and structure staff, manage budgets, navigate political waters, develop strategy, spot great creative, and, most important, move needles. Happy to say more in person if it\u2019s helpful. Give a ring.\nPresident/Wise Woman, Mindpower Inc.\nRachel was an asset to our president\u2019s leadership team. She is detailed oriented, very organized, and is able to manage multiple priorities at once. She is professional and a good team player. She and I worked on some fairly complex communications issues and Rachel brought a level of expertise to the job that was very helpful, especially relating to crisis management.\nDr. Suzy Nelson\nVice President and Dean of the College, Colgate University\nRachel Reuben is one of the most positive, kind yet driven professionals I ever met. She is a recognized higher ed expert in social media, web communications and marketing. I had the pleasure to work with Rachel when she presented a webinar about the strategic use of online communities by colleges and universities. While she mastered the topic, she still welcomed suggestions all along the process. The final presentation was a great success.\nExecutive Director, HigherEdExperts.com\nRachel Reuben is a true business professional with deep-level knowledge and experience in marketing strategy and public relations as it applies to colleges and universities.

        "title": "Understanding the Qualities of Digital Communication | Rainstorm Media Group",
        "raw_content": "We define digital communications as any text or image-based messaging that occurs through a website, streaming video, audio, graphic design, digital photography, text, or web code. Digital communication encompasses a huge range of media, including web sites, web ads, online streaming video and radio, email, and more. It also occurs through social media marketing, video ads, sponsored blog posts, text message campaigns, and an ever-increasing range of technological mediums. This article explores some of the key characteristics that define digital communication.\nDigital Communication is Expanding at a Rapid Rate\nAs more of the world gains access to the internet and devices like computers, tablets, and mobile phones, the world of digital communication is expanding. According to the GSMA, over 5 billion people use mobile devices, with more users joining every day. Not only does this mean that advertisers and organisations are better able to reach their audiences, but that consumers are more able to communicate with each other. Individuals are using digital communication to share articles, videos, and even restaurant recommendations through a few simple touches to the screen. The evolution from 4G to 5G networks is allowing for larger amounts of data to move between devices, and for the limits of creative media to grow. In years past, it took several minutes to download an single song- in contemporary times, almost any song can be accessed in less than a few seconds using streaming radio or digital video channels.\nDigital Communication Encourages Innovation in Creative Expression\nDigital communication allows for new combinations of imagery, sound, text, and animation. Pop-ups, GIFs, video ads, and clickable web banners are all new means of messaging and expression that have arisen in the last several years. The use of sound, moving text, and animated imagery are allowing for marketers and artists alike to redefine the limits of their creative expression. Who knows what\u2019s next in the world of technological innovations?\nDigital Communication Can Reach New Audiences\nNew platforms like Youtube, Soundcloud, and Instagram, allow for entertainers, companies, and individuals to reach audiences that were once out of reach due to geographical limitations. Streaming radio and television provide a platform that is affordable and attractive to a range of users. Consequently, this has created a new world of digital marketing; Blogs, web banners, video ads, and promoted posts are rapidly expanding as one of the most important digital marketing and communication tools around the world.\nDigital Communication Uses Web Code As a Tool\nWeb code, like HTML5, JavaScript, and more, act as the language of the internet. These coding languages work to move information, text, and images through the web as users run searches or \u201csurf\u201d through different sites. This code can sometimes detect a user\u2019s past behaviour, interests, geographic location, and whether they have visited a site previously. As a result, web code becomes a tool to determine when and where digital communications should be sent. Digital marketing companies use web code to direct their communication campaigns, and also to track their success.\nThe world of digital communications is endlessly expanding, allowing for new creative outlets, better opportunities to target individuals, and more opportunities for users to share with each other. While digital communications may never fully replace all forms of communication, its presence continues to become more important in cultures around the world.",

        "raw_content": "The human-canine bond\nWe\u2019ve talked about the bond that dogs have with us, the relationship and emotions that are generated, and the strong bond that dogs feel with their humans. But what about the bond that you feel with your dog? That can be emotionally trying, rewarding, and overwhelming too.\nThe human-canine bond is studied by psychologists, anthropologists, ethologists, and anthrozoologists. The study of this area is not new; research goes back to the 1930s with studies of imprinting and geese, and the 1970s and psychotherapy and pets with children.\nAccording to Wikipedia, there are three main theories concerning the human side of this bond. They are the biophilia hypothesis, social support theory, and the self psychology theory.\nBiophilia is largely attributed to Edward O. Wilson who researched and wrote about this in 1984. He defines it as \u201cthe urge to affiliate with other forms of life.\u201d Biophilia means the love of living things, and Mr. Wilson proposes with his hypothesis that this deep love of life is rooted in our biology. Keeping plants around your house is a reminder of food, of sustaining life. A love of animals is a reminder of support and sustaining life.\nSocial Support Theory\nSocial support is also simply seen as companionship and necessary for overall well being. Mental health can benefit greatly by service dogs and companion dogs and many humans rely heavily on this. For many people suffering with mental health issues (like PTSD), or medical issues (like epilepsy), the support of an animal is necessary.\nThis is a bit more abstract, and if you ask me, it sounds a bit unhealthy. Treating an animal as a \u201cself-object\u201d can give a person almost a sense of purpose, support, and unity. It is a feeling that you are stronger and more capable with your animal in your presence than without. The animal creates your personality.\nThere are studies (I have quoted some of them in multiple previous posts) that reference the fact that animal owners have decreased blood pressure, heart rate and breathing, and overall better health. The same goes for the dogs! Dog\u2019s oxytocin levels increase when they see their human companions and generally experience what we would call joy in the presence of their humans.\nThe benefits of dog ownership are tremendous. Regardless of which bond theory you identify with the most, your bond with your dog is strong and it is special. No one knows your dog the way that you do. And no one knows you the way that your dog does. Keep that bond and reinforce it!\ncanine sciencebond with dogs, human animal bond\n\u2190 Great summer dog reading\nDogs and grief \u2192",

        "raw_content": "A star tracker design for CubeSats\nMCBRYDE-THESIS.pdf (1.385Mb)\nMcBryde, Christopher Ryan\nThis research outlines a low-cost, low-power, arc-minute accurate star tracker that is designed for use on a CubeSat. The device is being developed at the University of Texas at Austin for use on two different 3-unit CubeSat missions. The hardware consists of commercial off-the-shelf parts designed for use in industrial machine vision systems and employs a 1024x768 grey-scale charge coupled device (CCD) sensor. The software includes the three standard steps in star tracking: centroiding, star identification, and attitude determination. Centroiding algorithms were developed in-house. The star identification code was adapted from the voting method developed by Kolomenkin, et al. Attitude determination was performed using Markley's singular value decomposition method. The star tracker was then tested with internal simulated star-fields. The resulting accuracy was less than an arcminute. It was concluded that this system is a viable option for CubeSats looking to improve their attitude determination. On-orbit demonstration of the system is planned when the star tracker flies on the planned CubeSat missions in 2013 or later. Further testing with external simulated star fields and night sky tests are also planned.\nStar camera\nAttitude determination",

While many of these alternative tactics are not unique to the group discussion method, and are also used in in-depth inter view research, they have become a popular device in focus groups, esp., in the marketing research field. These alternative approaches can be broadly categorized as either enabling or projective techniques, the difference being whether the moderator\u2019s intent is to simply modify a direct question to make it easier for group participants to express their opinions (enabling techniques) or delve into participants\u2019 less conscious, less rational, less socially-acceptable feelings by way of indirect exercises (projective techniques). Examples of enabling techniques are: sentence completion \u2013 e.g., \u201cWhen I think of my favorite foods, I think of _____.\u201d or \u201cThe best thing about the new city transit system is _____.\u201d; word association \u2013 e.g., asking prospective college students, \u201cWhat is the first word you think of when Read Full Text\nPosted in Enabling Techniques, Focus Groups, In-depth Interviews, Projective Techniques, Qualitative Research, Research Design & Methods and tagged enabling techniques, focus group discussions, in-depth interviewing, projective techniques, qualitative research design on November 15, 2013 by Margaret R.

In case a woman adopts a child below three months, she will be given 12 weeks leave from the date the child is handed over to her.\nAll establishments with 50 or more employees will also have to provide creches once the bill becomes law. NGOs and women's rights organisations have been pressing for passage of this amendment bill for a long time.\nLabour and Employment Minister Bandaru Dattatreya moved the bill for consideration and passage in the Lower House in the post-lunch session when only 53 members were present in the House. They included 8 women MPs from the Opposition and 3 from the treasury benches.\nSushmita Dev (Congress) and Thagata Sathpathy (BJD) were among the members who participated in the debate that took place before the bill was passed. The bill has already been passed by the Rajya Sabha. It seeks to amend the Maternity Benefits Act that provides for 12 weeks of maternity leave.\nThe bill has been pending in Parliament for long. The Rajya Sabha passed the Bill last August. Union ministers like Maneka Gandhi had fielded queries on social media from women waiting patiently for passage of this bill.\nOn Thursday, Maneka hailed the passage of the bill, saying: \"I am very, very happy that we have made history today. This will help thousands of women and produce much healthier children. We have been working on it for a long time.\"\nTags : Industry, working women, Union ministers, Rajya Sabha, Maternity Benefit Bill, Lok Sabha",

        "raw_content": "Billing Errors Lead to $1.7 Million in Medicare Overpayments\nHackensack University Medical Center received overpayments in a sampling of 62 claims during an 18-month period.\nOctober 29, 2014 - The Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG), released its Medicare compliance review of Hackensack University Medical Center. The review was conducted between April 1, 2011 and September 30, 2012. During this time it was discovered that the center received overpayments of at least $1.7 million over that time frame.\nThe review is part of a series of hospital compliance reviews for organizations that have had claims flagged. Using computer matching, data mining and other data analysis, the OIG identified claims that were considered at risk for noncompliance with Medicare billing requirements. During the calendar year of 2012, Medicare paid hospitals $148 billion, which means proper oversight is needed.\nThe Hackensack University Medical Center is a 775-bed acute care teaching hospital located in New Jersey. During the audit period, Medicare paid approximately $376 million for 22,385 inpatient and 159,420 outpatient claims for services provided to beneficiaries. The audit covered $7,570,827 in Medicare payments for 1,553 claims that were potentially at risk. A random selection of 200 of these claims (45 inpatient and 155 outpatient) with payments totaling $1,498,349, were examined.\nIt was discovered that the hospital complied with 138 of the 200 claims that were reviewed, but the remaining 62 claims had flaws that resulted in $351,580 in overpayments. More specifically, 26 inpatient claims contained billing errors for $248,179 in overpayments and 36 outpatient claims has billing errors, resulting in overpayments of $103,401. These errors are chalked up to inadequate controls to prevent incorrect billing of medicare claims. Extrapolating the information, it is estimated that the Hospital received overpayments of $1,719,632.\nThe OIG recommends that the hospital refund the $1,719,632 in estimated overpayments and work to strengthen controls to ensure full compliance with Medicare requirements.\nThe hospital responded to the report and generally concurred with the findings but did disagree with the determinations for 4 of the 62 sampled items that were not in compliance. Specifically, the Hospital indicated that three inpatient claims met the medical necessity for inpatient admission and the one disputed outpatient claim did not require a physician\u2019s order for observation services to be provided.\n\u201cThe Hospital also stated that the error rate of our sample of inpatient short stays is not representative of the Hospital\u2019s overall compliance for these stays,\u201d the report reads. \u201cIn addition, the Hospital disagreed with the statement in our draft report that it did not have a case worker onsite to oversee final patient discharge procedures, and stated that the lack of oversight was specific to the Hospital\u2019s operating room and post anesthesia care unit.\u201d\nThe OIG reviewed the comments from the hospital officials and is unmoved in its findings.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Bugs, strip-searches and gagging orders \u2013 The bizarre story of Her Majesty versus Sally Murrer\u2026 (and some even more bizarre claims from Private Eye)\nSceptic of the week \u2013 John Ward \u00bb\nThe tragically ironic twist to Rath\u2019s campaign is that he promotes only his particular formulations of vitamins to \u201ccure\u201d the suffering. And of course his potions come at a price high enough to seriously compromise the household incomes of the people he targets.\nPerhaps it seems lurid and distasteful to you, but the important thing is whether it is true or not. The way you have stated it \u2013 that AIDS is an \u201cinvention of the medical industrial complex\u201d \u2013 is more or less true, since Robert Gallo\u2019s claim that HIV \u201cprobably\u201d caused AIDS was a claim soon eviscerated in the medical and scientific literature in 1987 (Cancer Research) and 1988 (Proceedings of the National Academy) but maintained ever since by Gallo, Anthony Fauci of NIAID, David Baltimore and Max Essex, among others, using politics to defend it.\nThe truth is plain to see if you can read the peer reviewed journals and assess the situation for what it is \u2013 a rewriting of other illesses as \u201cHIV caused AIDS\u201d instead of \u201cAIDS caused by many factors but not HIV\u201d \u2013 factors including drugs, TB, and severe malnutrition. All this is explained at interminable length in lay terms on sciencegiardian.com, if you care to see for yourself.\nBut clearly you are not able to do this (read deeply into the peer reviewed literature) which is why you accept the self interested propaganda of those invested in the belief at the top of this field. What a pity your admirable scepticism has been falsely allayed in this case, since it is the most important distortion of science in decades.\nAnthony, I don\u2019t doubt that you think you\u2019ve understood these peer reviewed papers, but thinking you\u2019ve understood them and actually understanding them are two different things.\nI\u2019ve seen plenty of stuff by non-scientists attempting to put forward their own amateur critique of the established science on AIDS. Some of it is even, superficially, quite convincing. But the problem is that in order to accept it you would need to embrace a grand global conspiracy theory that is just simply a lot more implausible than the idea that these people have just got it wrong. They thought they understood the science, but actually they didn\u2019t, because science is really specialised and difficult to understand without the proper training, like flying jumbo jets and speaking foreign languages.\nI bet we could also find some people out there who think that they\u2019re perfectly capable of flying a jumbo jet (I mean, how difficult can it really be?) despite not having ever had any real training, bar the amateur doodling they did in their garden shed based on a flight manual they once pilfered from their local library. But I wouldn\u2019t get in a plane with them \u2013 and were they in the habit of trying to persuade other people to get into planes with them, I\u2019d probably want to highlight the fact so as to minimise the number of people who died in preventable plane crashes.\nOn the wider issue of the parallels between AIDS \u201cscepticism\u201d and Holocaust denial, I\u2019ve just posted a new article here:\nhttps://richardwilsonauthor.wordpress.com/2008/12/16/the-parallels-between-aids-denial-and-holocaust-negationism/\nPerhaps you are not able to understand the literature in the field of HIV/AIDS, but you must speak for yourself, and not reply to the suggestion that you have missed what is really going on in the field w3ith the comforting supposition that your critic doesn\u2019t understand the literature either.\nNot only do I understand the science very well through long exposure and multiple sources in the field from Peter Duesberg and Robert Gallo downwards, but I believe that anyone intelligent can easily catch up with what is happening there is they simply read into it.\nUnfortunately your own belief that the science is a stock in trade of professionals that cannot be understood by outsiders plays into their ability to mislead you, and encourages others to accept the conventional wisdom as if it were gospel. HIV as the cause of AIDS has never been justified scientifically let alone proven, and there have been radical inconsistencies on every level from the very beginning of this fundamentally incredible claim.\nAs a distinguished skeptic it is time for you to correct your opinion in this area by looking into it more thoroughly. Try scienceguardian.com for information and leads.\nhereticnyc\nHeretic \u2013 thanks for the link \u2013 I\u2019m familiar with scienceguardian and would recommend it to anyone exploring this issue as I think it lays out very clearly what\u2019s at stake.\nIt is indeed my impression that many of the self-described \u201cAIDS dissidents\u201d who have read widely around the subject and attempted on that basis to give their own personal critiques of mainstream AIDS science have in fact fallen into the trap of thinking that they\u2019ve spotted a fatal flaw when in fact they\u2019ve just misunderstood what they\u2019ve read. And it\u2019s not just people like me who think this. Duesberg\u2019s criticisms of the Perth Group seem to run very much in this direction.\nIn this respect, I believe that AIDS denial has much in common with Creationism, Global warming denial, John Bridle\u2019s \u201cscepticism\u201d about the health risks of white asbestos, and indeed the supposition that Leuchter\u2019s amateur forensic testing on the walls of the Auschwitz gas chambers proves that the Holocaust didn\u2019t happen. (I look at the fascinating parallels between Holocaust denial and AIDS denial here: https://richardwilsonauthor.wordpress.com/2008/12/16/the-parallels-between-aids-denial-and-holocaust-negationism/)\nI didn\u2019t say that I thought it was impossible for an untrained amateur to understand HIV/AIDS science \u2013 Clearly some areas of the science \u2013 eg. the epidemiological research are more accessible than others. But I do think it\u2019s incredibly difficult, given that modern science deals in so many complex technical terms that it\u2019s bordering on being a sub-language all of its own, and that there are many pitfalls. You make a good point about the dangers of specialists using their knowledge to deceive those who lack their level of training. This is precisely the danger that denialists face, in my view, when they buy into the ideas of the small number of genuine scientists (some of whose motives do seem very questionable) who deny the link between HIV and AIDS, sometimes with appallingly tragic consequences.\nThe basic problem, in my view, is that, however much reading one does \u2013 or indeed how many scientific qualifications one gets \u2013 the days are probably now past when it was possible for one person to get a detailed understanding of every significant area of human knowledge. There just isn\u2019t the time in one lifetime to get fully to grips with every single subject out there. There comes a point, in my view, where all of us have to trust an expert on one issue or another, even those of us with specialist knowledge in one small area. And the basic question I\u2019m interested in is how we can decide which expert to trust when we\u2019re dealing with a specialism outside our area of expertise \u2013 be that AIDS science, evolutionary biology, meteorology, financial investment (the Madoff case being a classic illustration of the dangers) or forensic science. I\u2019d be interested in knowing your thoughts on that question?\nI do have to take issue with you on one key point though: if you\u2019re looking for a \u201cdistinguished sceptic\u201d then you\u2019ve come to the wrong place\u2026\nRichard, your claim that you are not a distinguished skeptic baffles me, but in such things one has to accept testimony from the horse;s mouth.\nRegarding how to choose the expert ome goes with, I am sory to say that it depends a lot on what you can manage to find out each person, and if you can meet them personally, that is the best litmus test. I have met all the scoundrels in HIV/AIDS personally except for the conflicted John Moore, and I know whereof I speak as regards the science because I have carried water endlessly between them until I recognized who was evading and who wasn\u2019t. Duesberg wasn\u2019t.\nIf you troubled to look into the matter yourself properly you would recognize that like everybody with a limited acquaintance with the issue you have been neatly trapped by the assumption that all the stalwart HIV promoters are touched by scandal whether public or not, while Duesberg is the only scientist of the top class involved who is impeccable in his standards of evidence and reason.\nSince you evidently value high standards, since you believe that the critics of HIV are bad scientists, you really should read Duesberg\u2019s work to refine your judgment on this. Just go to duesberg.com and catch a paper or two. You will recognize what good work is. Yes, the Perth Group are valiant players but not on the same level, it is true. But they have pointed out some interesting facts to do with the unacceptability of the HIV claim, even so.\nInteresting you should mention Madoff. I have just written a post on his achievement at scienceguardian.com which I am about to illustrate and put up. It pales by comparisom with the achievement of Anthony Fauci along the same lines \u2013 deceiving the world so that you can buy good suits.\ncriticnyc\nSorry Richard your comments dont allow one to review and edit, and I miswrote \u2013 I meant to say that the assumption that has trapped you is that all the estbakishment guys are leading you correctly. They aren\u2019t.",

I have worked in education for the past 10 years and have been counseling at Roswell North since 2012. I love working with students and truly see it as my life's purpose. My door is always open so please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to working with your children.\nJoy Fofana M.A.\nfofana@fultonschools.org\nCounselor K-5th\nBearsCare Coordinator\nIt is hard to believe, but another school year is well underway. I\u2019m looking forward to working at Roswell North Elementary School this year as I meet once again some familiar faces as well as some new ones. I\u2019d like to share some of the programs the Counseling Department has to offer. Each year individual and small group services are available for all students, as well as classroom guidance. These services promote personal and social growth, which, in turn, raise academic standards.\nSuper Bear of the Month!\nThis school year we will encourage students to show positive character traits each month. Every month chosen students will be honored with their friends at lunch and receive a certificate.\nALL GREAT SUPERHEROS SHOW GREAT CHARACTER!!!!",

        "title": "Free DNS company ends free; preaches pay now | Complete Geek Boutique",
        "raw_content": "Free DNS company ends free; preaches pay now\nDyn, the web hosting and DNS company, has sent a letter to its free DNS account holders to tell them that the company will no longer provide DNS service for free.\nWe can\u2019t say we didn\u2019t see it coming. We figured that this would happen when the company required that users log into the company\u2019s web site each month \u2013 or, the company warned, the company would ax the free DNS. You can almost smell the sales department\u2019s cologne and/or perfume on this one. You can also smell financial turbulence for this company, as well.\nBy and large, free DNS is used for average people, not giant companies who can afford to pay. These are thousands of people who run small, usually at-home web servers and who rely on free DNS to let folks access those servers over the Internet. But no more \u2013 at least with Dyn. And not without money, if you want to keep your small-time site name. For example, a typical site name would be something like \u201cramshackleshack.dyndns-work.com.\u201d (Not sexy, but free).\nNow, no more free. Pity. Those who rely on that free DNS to run their own web servers will now have to either rent it, together with a hosting plan no doubt, and the added expense of buying a domain name. Sadly, thousands of \u201caverage guy/gal\u201d web sites that rely on free DNS to make their own web servers visible on the Internet are left out in the cold, and now must find another means of being available on the Internet \u2013 or go dark.\nBelow is an excerpt from the company\u2019s letter to subscribers.\n\u201cTo our Dyn free hostname users: For the last 15 years, all of us at Dyn have taken pride in offering you and millions of others a free version of our Dynamic DNS Pro product. What was originally a product built for a small group of users has blossomed into an exciting technology used around the world.\n\u201cThat is why with mixed emotions we are notifying you that in 30 days, we will be ending our free hostname program. This change in the business will allow us to invest in our customer support teams, Internet infrastructure, and platform security so that we can continue to strive to deliver an exceptional customer experience for our paying customers.\n\u201cWe would like to invite you to upgrade to VIP status for less than $20 \u2014 a 25% discount good for any package of Remote Access (formerly DynDNS Pro). By doing so, you\u2019ll have access to customer support, additional hostnames, and more.\u201d\nIt\u2019s not like there are that many free DNS companies around. This company\u2019s decision will force those everyday people who run their own servers from home or work will now just have to \u201cgo fish.\u201d The DNS service poll just shrank by one company.\nBeyond that \u2013 this company\u2019s decision gives the open source community a black eye, since many of open sources\u2019 adherents also rely on the free DNS to help in developing programming for the public at large or to just run a small, personal server.\nTo that cross-section of the public, $20 a month for DNS is unreasonable, and with the sad state of the economy, it\u2019s not in the budget. The only consolation they may have after they find another free DNS company is that, although they must change their web address, at least it won\u2019t end in \u201cdyndns.com.\u201d\nBy the way, at last report, no-ip.com was still in love with free DNS. On their web site they say:\nOur users trust in us and you will never have to worry about us discontinuing our free dynamic DNS service. We love free stuff!\u201d\nYa gotta love competition.\nThis entry was posted on April 8, 2014 by robguyy in Geek Tips, Musings and tagged DNS, DYN, Dynamic DNS, free, free DNS.\nhttps://wp.me/p6Hre-2Q",

This displays as integers where that is possible and otherwise displays as NNNrDDD where the part to the left of the 'r' is the numerator and the part to the right of the 'r' is the denominator.\nThis mechanism is a part of J's \"constant language\", and is similar to scientific notation (which uses an 'e' instead of an 'r') and with J's complex number notation (which uses a 'j' instead of an 'r'), and which follow similar display rules.\nThis mechanism also hints that J's type promotion rules are designed to give internally consistent results a priority. As much as possible you do not get different results from the same operation just because you \"used a different data type\". J's design adopts the philosophy that \"different results from the same operation based on different types\" is likely to introduce errors in thinking.

Lucey, who had also served as the head of the US Internal Revenue Service\u2019s Western Massachusetts regional office before being appointed city treasurer in May 1944. Lucey had also served on the Holyoke School Committee and ran for mayor of Holyoke in 1939 (he lost). He served as city treasurer until he retired in May 1972, the longest-serving city department head in Holyoke at the time.[2]\nJoe Lucey also played major-league baseball, for two teams and two teams only: the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox \u2013 five years apart. He was Irish-American, born Joseph Earl Lucey in Holyoke on March 27, 1897. His father, John, was a chauffeur who worked privately for a family in Holyoke. John\u2019s wife, Elizabeth Hayes Lucey, died while Joe (who was called Earl at the time of the 1910 census) was a teenager. Joe was in the middle of the family\u2019s seven children. By 1920, the year he broke into the major leagues, John was widowed and working as a janitor. The eldest two children worked in a furniture store, Mary as a bookkeeper and Frank (Francis) as a shipping clerk. Alice, a year younger than Joe, was a saleswoman in a department store. Margaret was only 13, but later became a public-school teacher. A fourth daughter was Helen.\nJoe pretty much went straight to the big leagues. He hadn\u2019t played a day in the minor leagues before his debut with the Yankees in 1920. Joe had a Catholic education: nine years at St. Jerome\u2019s School, four at Rosary High School, and three years at Fordham University in New York (before his Army service) and Catholic University of America in Washington (after the Army). He served in the infantry for seven months in 1918 during the First World War.\nLucey played baseball and basketball at Rosary High, and focused on baseball alone at Catholic University. That\u2019s where he pitched his best game, against Lehigh on May 3, 1919. The leadoff batter struck his first pitch for a triple, and the second batter hit the first pitch he saw for a single. From that point on, Lucey didn\u2019t yield another hit and Catholic University won the 11-inning game for coach Charley Moran, 2-1. Lucey reportedly never lost a game with Catholic University. He had also played ball locally on a City League team named the Paragons, which held a longtime rivalry with another athletic club, the Wizards.\nLucey didn\u2019t graduate from Catholic University. He had an opportunity to join the New York Yankees, and signed for $1,500 a year.[3] His first game saw him take over second base for Del Pratt after the Yanks scored 14 runs in the fifth inning of a game on July 6, 1920, in Washington. He was hitless in one at-bat. The only three games in which he appeared were all lopsided affairs: the 17-0 win on July 6, a 9-0 loss to the visiting Red Sox on July 26, and a 19-3 win over the Browns in St. Louis on July 30. In each game Lucey registered one at-bat, and in each at-bat, he made an out. Such was his major-league career for the next five years: a batting average of .000 and a fielding average of 1.000 (three fielding chances and no errors). Lucey told sportswriter Bill Keating, \u201cWhen I reported to the Yanks, Roger Peckinpaugh was their shortstop and one of the greatest of all shortstops. I never had a chance to bat. In those days the regulars chased the new players away from the batter\u2019s cage.\u201d[4]\nLucey remained with the team for the rest of the season, and was able to watch teammate Babe Ruth hit a record 54 home runs in his first year with New York. Sadly, he was also present when a Carl Mays fastball fatally struck Cleveland shortstop Ray Chapman on August 16, and told Bill Keating of the Holyoke Transcript-Telegram that he was one of the players who helped carry Chapman off the field.[5]\nLucey was in Washington for the inauguration of President Harding in 1921, planning to train with the Yankees in Shreveport, but was placed instead with the Jersey City Skeeters in the Double-A International League, and for the next four seasons it was Scootch with the Skeeters. In 1921 and 1922 he played 30 and 33 games respectively in the outfield, but he primarily worked as a pitcher in his time with Jersey City. He\u2019d been intended as an infielder, but manager Patsy Donovan was aware of his successes at college and decided to try to convert him to pitching.\nLucey was 2-9 with a 4.68 earned-run average in 1921, but got progressively better and was 7-7 (3.87) in 1922 and 11-13 (2.73) in 1923, leading the league in earned-run average while pitching for a last-place team. His last year with Jersey City (1924) saw a sharp dropoff, to 7-13 (4.86). But Bob Quinn, the owner of the Boston Red Sox, signed him in December and invited him to come to 1925 spring training in New Orleans with the Red Sox.[6] In the offseason, Lucey coached basketball at Rosary High School.\nHis versatility was prized, and Ford Sawyer pointed out in the Globe that he had played almost every infield position and the outfield as well. A right-hander, he stood an even 6 feet tall and weighed around 170 pounds.\nLucey made the Red Sox and did two things he\u2019d never done for the Yankees \u2013 he started a game as an infielder (three games, at shortstop) and he pitched (appearing in seven games, two of them starts). The Red Sox were down 9-1 against the Athletics on April 23 when he was brought into the game. An error behind him resulted in all four runs that scored in the third of an inning he pitched being unearned, but manager Lee Fohl couldn\u2019t help but notice the two base on balls and three hits he gave up.\nOn May 21, in his fourth appearance for Boston, Lucey was given a start and the Red Sox won the game in Chicago. But he was long gone by the time the game resolved. The Red Sox scored five times in the first, and Lucey even had a single, but the White Sox runs started piling up and Fohl yanked Lucey after 1 1/3\u0085\u0093 innings; four runs were charged to him (two earned, two unearned).\nLucey\u2019s only other start was on June 2, and it lasted a third of an inning longer. This time, in Boston, the Athletics \u201chad a regular batting jamboree at the expense of Lucey\u201d \u2013 four runs in the first inning, and then another run in the second.[7] After he was pulled with the bases loaded, Mickey Cochrane singled to drive in all three. Eight runs, all earned. It was the only decision Lucey ever recorded as a pitcher, a loss. He pitched two innings in relief on June 10 and gave up three more runs. All in all, he threw 11 innings and saw 20 runs score, but only 11 were earned runs \u2013 leaving him with a 9.00 ERA. The 1925 Red Sox finished the season with a 47-105 record, but even they couldn\u2019t see keeping Lucey on board.\nActually, Lucey stuck around long enough to pitch an exhibition game at Russell Field in North Cambridge, outside Boston, on June 18 in front of about 10,000 people, a benefit for Holy Ghost Hospital for Incurables. The Red Sox won, 15-5, Even then, facing a collection of independent players, Lucey gave up five runs.\nAs a batter, Lucey had a hit in the May 21 game and another single later on. He did play three complete games at shortstop (on June 23, 24, and 25) but was far from impressive there, too, committing four errors in 16 chances, for a fielding percentage of .750. Pitching was one thing, but Lucey\u2019s throwing errors on the 23rd and 25th arguably cost Boston both games. That, with his .133 batting average and 9.00 ERA, helped convince the Red Sox they\u2019d seen enough.\nWhen the Buffalo Bisons agreed to buy Lucey\u2019s contract, the Red Sox sold it on July 7. It may have been a decent deal for Buffalo; Lucey was 6-2 with a 3.99 ERA in the rest of the 1925 season. He played 20 games at second base and hit for a .322 average. He was a holdout in 1926, playing in Florida for a team managed by Ira Thomas, but on April 22 finally came to agreement and worked the year for Buffalo.[8] Lucey lost his effectiveness on the mound in 1926, recording a 5.89 ERA, but won more games than he lost (10-9). He played in 33 games as an outfielder, and hit .317.\nIn 1927 Lucey wound up his career. He played some with Syracuse, then appeared in 18 games for the Dallas Steers, and finally seven games for Toronto.[9] Some of his records that year are not available but he seems to have thrown ten innings for Dallas and given up eight runs, five of them earned.\nLucey returned home to Holyoke and opened Holyoke Sporting Goods on Suffolk Street in 1928. At the time of the 1930 census, he was living with his brother, Frank, an insurance agent, and his sisters Mary and Margaret (a bookkeeper in a laundry and a schoolteacher, respectively), and was himself listed as \u201cmerchant, sporting goods.\u201d In 1932 he began his work with the Internal Revenue Service and sold his interest in the sporting-goods store to partner Jim Cleary. In September 1936, Joe married Cecelia Marie Walsh. The two had one child, Maureen. He left the IRS after his appointment to the city treasurer\u2019s post, and was such a popular figure that he ran for re-election seven times without opposition.\nJoe maintained his interest in baseball, with partial-plan season tickets, often taking Maureen and his grandson, David, to games at Fenway Park. Friends from International League days who still worked in baseball called on Joe occasionally to informally scout high-school ballplayers in Western Massachusetts.[10]\nWhen Lucey died of heart failure after a long illness on the morning of July 30, 1980, he left behind daughter Maureen Gasiorowski, his sister Margaret, with whom he made his home, and two grandchildren. For his funeral Maureen arranged for a floral arrangement that featured both Red Sox and Yankees baseballs, and a Red Sox cap. As those present left the church, the church organist played \u201cTake Me Out to the Ballgame.\u201d\nMaureen worked as a schoolteacher in Holyoke and became executive director of the Holyoke Council on Aging and conference coordinator at Westfield State College. She moved to Florida and served as a teacher and director of religious education at St. Patrick Church in Palm Beach Gardens.[11] In 2011 her daughter, Carol, worked in hotel management in Aspen, Colorado, and her son, David Lucey \u2013 a very good ballplayer at Trinity \u2013 worked as a lawyer for Fidelity Investments. All counted themselves as dedicated Red Sox fans.\n[1] Lucey\u2019s sister Margaret told Ron Chimelis of the Holyoke Union-News that Joe had been known as Scootch since high school, but no one ever understood where it came from. She added that everyone in his immediate family called him by his middle name, Earl, but that he came to hate to be called Earl. Holyoke Union-News, July 13, 1995.\n[2] Unattributed newspaper obituary dated July 30, 1980, found in Lucey\u2019s player file at the National Baseball Hall of Fame\n[3] Margaret Lucey had the contract in her possession. Holyoke Union-News, July 13, 1995.\n[4] Holyoke Transcript-Telegram, August 3, 1964\n[7] Boston Globe, June 3, 1925\n[8] Hartford Courant, April 23, 1926\n[9] New York Times, July 16, 1927, indicates the stays with Syracuse and Dallas, and his July 15 signing with Toronto.\n[10] Telephone conversation with Maureen Lucey on October 29, 2011\n[11] Letter to author from Maureen Lucey, November 15, 2011",

        "raw_content": "As you can imagine, magazines\u2019 editorial pages tend to rise or fall depending on the number of ad pages that they have. In the year 2000, magazines published by the Publishers Information Bureau had almost 287,000 ad pages while by the year 2009, the number of ad pages had diminished to almost 170,000 pages. That\u2019s a 41 percent decrease.\nAs you can imagine, these magazines were thinner. They were using less paper. Paper mills had a lower demand for their products. But with a 41 percent decrease in ad space and paper, there was also a diminished need for pictures to fill up those pages. So photographers were having their businesses squeezed. Additionally, professional photographers had to deal with the many amateur photographers using digital cameras and providing photographs competing with theirs. The professional photography industry was changing and many photographers were having trouble staying in business. The drop in magazine ad business affected other industries as well!\nSo how does that impact you? Simply this. What and how is your business changing? Wait. Don\u2019t answer that. Maybe more importantly, answer this question. What changes in the industry are impacting your business? What changes in technology are impacting your business? Because technology changes, customer\u2019s expectations change, and we have to adapt our organization. It goes even further than that. Not only do the products that we manufacture and sell need to evolve. Not only do the services change, but there are changes in the marketplace with respect to people. It\u2019s harder to find the right people or the talented people or what we need from a human resource basis.\nOur companies are being overrun with changes that we need to adapt to. Now, successful companies and great leaders are working hard to manage those changes but the real superstars are going even further. They\u2019re creating change. They\u2019re looking to reinvent their organization. They\u2019re champions for finding new ways to evolve their organization, to hit the new mark because what they find is if they are the game changer, if they are the ones that are driving the change, then everyone else has a much more difficult time keeping up.\nWhat are you doing to change the game for your organization? But before you can do that, you have to look at your space and you have to say, \u201cWhat can I eliminate from what we do to create the opportunity for future growth to change the game and to dominate our industry?\u201d",

        "raw_content": "This is not a post about the big-game hunting cheerleader.\nSorry if that\u2019s what you want it to be about. I know that when I shared it on Facebook that\u2019s the image that popped up. And in the internet world, we only care about headlines and images.\nYou\u2019ve seen it hundreds of times, either accompanied by outrage, or outrage at the outrage. Well, frankly, I don\u2019t care about that story. It\u2019s stupid and you won\u2019t remember it by October.\nThis is a post about the much deeper issue behind that and countless other stories that we see in our timelines, on our Twitter feeds, and in our news. It\u2019s about our society\u2019s propensity to \u201clevel\u201d and to present a new \u201chead on a platter\u201d each week. My main sources for these ideas come from three places. The first is this essay by Soren Kierkegaard called \u201cThe Present Age\u201d, the second is an article about the #AskThicke Twitter debacle by Jon Caramanica in the New York Times, and the third is this poem by Charles Baudelaire called \u201cAu Lectuer\u201d.\nMy apologies, but this post might to take a while to read. It\u2019s like that on purpose because so much of what we read is the quick and ill-informed answer to some mystery posed in a Facebook-shareable headline.\nThe idea that our society has a propensity to \u201clevel\u201d is taken from Kierkegaard\u2019s \u201cThe Present Age\u201d essay in which he presents the differences between a reflective and a romantic age. I was turned on to this essay by interviews from Win Butler as he was promoting Arcade Fire\u2019s Reflektor. Kierkegaard\u2019s work had a major influence on this album. At the end of the essay Kierkegaard, writing in 1846, gives what may be the perfect description of the public and it\u2019s relationship to others and the media:\nThis lazy mass, which understands nothing and does nothing, this public gallery seeks some distraction, and soon gives itself over to the idea that everything which someone does, or achieves, has been done to provide the public something to gossip about. . . . The public has a dog for its amusement. That dog is the Media. If there is someone better than the public, someone who distinguishes himself, the public sets the dog on him and all the amusement begins. This biting dog tears up his coat-tails, and takes all sort of vulgar liberties with his leg\u2013until the public bores of it all and calls the dog off. That is how the public levels.\nNow, tell me that doesn\u2019t perfectly describe this inane big-game hunting cheerleader story. The public (Facebook mostly in this case), took the view that this girl, who is not a celebrity or politician or athlete or anything higher than an average citizen, has done something to provide the public with gossip material. Because that\u2019s all it is in the end. We are all just looking for someone to talk about, good or bad. Those insulting her aren\u2019t insulting her because they want her to change her ways or improve her life. They don\u2019t want a conversation, they want a victory. They\u2019ll sic their dog on her until they\u2019ve grown bored (bound to happen in a day or two). Nobody in this entire situation wanted to bring others up, they wanted to keep everyone down at the same level of bitterness. They wanted a head on a platter.\nWhich brings me to the \u201chead on the platter\u201d. In Caramanica\u2019s piece on Thicke, he began by saying something that got me thinking on a much more broad scale than whether or not someone insulted Robin Thicke on Twitter.\nEvery now and again \u2014 almost every day, really \u2014 the Internet demands a head on a platter, and this week, it came for Robin Thicke\u2019s.\nThe rest of the article isn\u2019t really germane to my point, but this line applies across all forms of the modern dialogue. Many may read a sentence like Caramanica\u2019s and shake their head at how we have fallen so far as to constantly demand this endless stream of \u201cheads on platters\u201d. Really though, we haven\u2019t fallen anywhere. We remain exactly where we have always been. During the French Revolution, people literally demanded heads on platters on a daily basis. The Roman\u2019s main form of entertainment involved the death of hundreds and thousands of people a day. Executions in the US were public until 1936. But, fortunately, we don\u2019t find our entertainment in the physical deaths of others anymore. Instead, we now find it in the death\u2019s of someone\u2019s public life.\nIn the 21st century, Twitter has become our public execution grounds. If Tweets are the stones or tomatoes thrown by the crowd, then takedown pieces in Gawker or Slate are the guillotine blades dealing the death blows. Instead of newspaper write-ups explaining the hanging, we get Buzzfeed posts explaining it with gifs from Frozen.\nIt\u2019s all the same mindset: Someone has done something bad and for that they must be punished. And we must take delight in their punishment, because for just a small amount of time it lets us forget about our own depravity. We can troll Robin Thicke on Twitter because we haven\u2019t ever made a music video with naked women or very publicly grinded on a 20-year-old while married. It\u2019s easy because he\u2019s a screw-up. But so are we, and we will take delight knowing that everyone is focused on his screw-ups and not ours.\nTo that point I turn to Baudelaire. This is also something I learned about from Arcade Fire (this time from \u201cSpeaking in Tongues\u201d off The Suburbs Deluxe). It\u2019s Baudelaire\u2019s poem \u201cAu Lectuer\u201d or \u201cTo the Reader\u201d. Most of the poem is spent in a description of sin and it\u2019s incredible hold on the soul. But at the end, Baudelaire says there is something even worse than the worst of sins and sinners:\n\u201cC\u2019est le ennui!\u201d\nFrankly, we are all profoundly bored. We desire sins often when we are most bored. When our minds are idle we must occupy them with something. And often that something is gossip. Or anger. Or lust. Or self-righteous indignation and outrage. We must find something to care about. And it\u2019s easiest to care about something when it\u2019s all over our Facebook wall. If all of our friends are supposedly caring about it, then why shouldn\u2019t we? It doesn\u2019t matter that it has absolutely no hold on our lives. It doesn\u2019t matter that we aren\u2019t treating others with respect because, well, I\u2019m right and you\u2019re wrong.\nBut, you see Baudelaire wasn\u2019t done with this poem. He finishes with a twist:\n\u201cYou know him, reader, this exquisite monster,\n-Hypocrite reader,-my double,-my brother!\u201d\nYou see, while it\u2019s easy to read about the sins of others and even easier to write about them, we are all guilty of the same thing. You might have been reading this thinking about how awful all of these other people are for the way they overreact to everything. And I certainly have been writing it with that same mindset, but \u201cHypocrite reader, -my double,-my brother!\u201d, we are just as guilty for thinking this way. It\u2019s not right and we shouldn\u2019t do it, but sometimes we all throw those stones and drop that blade. Sometimes, we all want a head on a platter.\nArcade Fire, Baudelaire, Big game hunting cheerleader, human nature, Kierkegaard",

        "raw_content": "Bob Hoskins to Retire From Acting Following Parkinson\u2019s Diagnosis\nActor Bob Hoskins has announced today that he has been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease and will retire from acting at the age of 69.\nBob Hoskins has had a long and wonderful career that's given us memorable roles in films like Terry Gilliam's 'Brazil,' 'Mona Lisa,' 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit,' 'Hook,' 'Mermaids,' 'Super Mario Bros.' and 'Unleashed.' The veteran actor most recently starred as one of the seven dwarfs in 'Snow White and the Huntsman,' a dark twist on the classic fairy tale starring Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron.\nHoskins was sadly diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease last fall -- something he's kept secret from the public until now -- and released this official statement via his agent today:\n\"Bob Hoskins wishes to announce that he will be retiring from acting, following his diagnosis of Parkinson's disease last autumn. He wishes to thank all the great and brilliant people he has worked with over the years, and all of his fans who have supported him during a wonderful career. Bob is now looking forward to his retirement with his family, and would greatly appreciate that his privacy be respected at this time.\"\nHoskins has been an absolute treat to watch in films over the years, and he will surely be missed. Parkinson's is the same disease that afflicts fellow actor Michael J. Fox.

        "title": "Ridley Scott Hopes to Make Alien Movies For Disney | ScreenRant",
        "raw_content": "Ridley Scott Hopes to Make Alien Movies For Disney\nSir Ridley Scott would like to make more Alien movies for Disney. Despite his earlier declarations that \"the beast has almost run out\", the legendary director expressed a willingness to develop the property further under the aegis of The House of Mouse following the recent merger between the Walt Disney Company and 21st Century Fox.\nThe Alien franchise is one of many properties acquired in the recent buy-out, whose continued status is uncertain. Fans of the Alien films are hopeful that Disney will take a hands-off approach in the daily management of Fox's operations, similar to the one taken when the studio acquired Marvel Comics in 2009, allowing Fox to produce the adult films with which The Walt Disney Company would normally not be associated.\nRelated: Ridley Scott thinks Weinstein may return\nScott's wishes were first reported by Digital Spy, where he was quizzed about the fate of the franchise. Sir Ridley confessed ignorance of any specific plans one way or the other, saying \"whether or not they go ahead with such a dark subject... remains to be seen.\" However, Scott expressed his hope that the series would continue in some form or fashion, with or without him.\n\"I think they should because I think, when people have a hard and fast franchise which has ongoing interest, it's crazy not to do something with it.\"\nScott seems optimistic, though he also admits that is unlikely the series will continue under Disney's banner given the company's focus on family entertainment. The Alien films, by contrast, are notorious for their violent and disturbing content and for being about as far from family friendly as it is possible to get. Despite this, Scott praised the company's business acumen.\n\"I think it's great. I think it's very good for Disney. Of all the studios they're far ahead of their game for having a prepared, thought through demographic for the kind of films they're making \u2013 for who they're making them for. That's why they're so successful. And they draw the line at anything that crosses PG-13... [If] they find that they're so successful with that that they want to cross the line and do something a little darker, and if they do that, do they want to do that under Disney or do they want to do that under the Fox banner? I think there's a business plan afoot definitely.\"\nSadly, Scott's newfound optimism seems grossly unfounded. Ignoring the Disney studio's traditional focus (though, they're keen to make more Deadpool sequels), many feel that the Aliens series' best days are behind it. Alien: Covenant, the most recent Alien movie, suffered an 80% drop in its second week, making a mere $3 million at the height of the summer blockbuster season. The final profits of $74 million were so disappointing that Fox has canceled production on the proposed follow-up film. Given that, it seems unlikely then that the profit-minded House of Mouse will be interested in continuing the film franchise any time soon.\nMore: Ridley Scott Has An Idea For Another Blade Runner Sequel",

While that may still hold true but some groups are calling for anti-piracy groups to target pirates with a bit more consideration in order to avoid some unforeseen consequences.\nIn fact, according to some media reports, people have witnessed widespread demonstrations against piracy verdicts that have targeted repeat copyright violators.\nSome have even gone on to call the piracy verdict as dangerous for the future of the online community.\nThe piracy case that we\u2019re talking about here is the one that just got concluded between Cox Communications and BMG Rights Management.\nAs mentioned before, various organizations such as industry associations, libraries, academic institutions along with other digital rights groups and anti-piracy groups have made their voices known and have put in their formal responses on the landmark piracy deal that involves Cox Communications and BMG Rights Management.\nAll of the aforementioned organizations and groups have warned the relative courts that the decision of the district court to judge the internet service provider of any subscriber who has engaged in piracy activities responsible for copyright infringement could have harmful ramifications which the court might not have taken into consideration at first.\nThe particular ruling that we\u2019re trying to discuss here is the one that took place last December when a Virginia federal jury ruled against the internet service provider Cox Communications and said that the internet service provider company was actually liable for the copyright violations caused by people who have subscribed to its service regardless of the fact if the internet service provider actually could pinpoint the user who had engaged in copyright violations or not.\nReaders who did not follow the news at the time should also know that the said internet service provider, Cox Communications, was found guilty of knowingly helping and contributing to copyright violations on part of its paying subscribers while not informing the law enforcement agencies about any and every illegal activity that was taking place because of the company\u2019s internet services.\nThe court ordered Cox Communications to pay a major music publisher by the name of BMG Rights Management a mammoth sum of $25 million which was deemed as the right amount for the damages that BMG Rights Management suffered because of the copyright infringements that took place over the network of Cox Communications.\nNot giving up on its money easily, Cox Communications filed an appeal last week and argued in its appeal that the district court did not come out with the proper judgement because it had made several mistakes in its judgement while looking at the case that involved the two parties.\nCox also stated in its appeal that because of the court\u2019s decision, the public is likely to lose out in the very near future since the verdict might be used by other anti-piracy groups to restrict access to the vital internet services for some users.\nWith a host of other organizations and association jumping into the equation as well, it has become clear now, especially this week, that Cox Communications isn\u2019t alone in its fight against the verdict from the court which the company feels is not only unjust to the company as an internet service provider but also to the public whose right to complete and unrestricted internet access is as paramount as any other.\nAs indicated before, yesterday several number of other organization including industry associations along with academic institutions, digital right groups and libraries submitted their own version of voluntary answers to the court of law in order to appeal against the verdict.\nPiracy protests are just like political protests. Only that the protests take place over paper rather than streets.\nThis also allowed these organizations and associations to raise their voice against how issues dealing with internet service providers and piracy should be handled that doesn\u2019t trounce on the rights of end-users.\nAs of this moment in time, the collective response is a rather long one and totals over two hundred pages.\nThe overall tone of the submission seems to be that if the current verdict by Virginia federal jury is not challenged and is allowed to stand then that puts other internet service providers along with other online service operators in danger because the verdict could be used in the future to unjustly target these internet service providers because of the activities that might take place from their networks and services.\nIn other words, the verdict, as it stands right now may also be used to handle liability claims brought by other parties against other internet service providers and since the law had not been correctly interpreted in the case between Cox Communications and BMG Rights Management, this same verdict could really hurt other internet service providers.\nThe CCIA, Computer & Communications Industry Association, which is a non-for-profit organization and represents giant global tech companies including the likes of Facebook, Microsoft, Google and Oracle, submitted their views and opinions regarding the issue between Cox Communications and BMG Rights Management in a brief with the CTA, Consumer Technology Association.\nBoth the groups raised questions and said that the district court that came up with the decision against Cox Communications mistakenly did not take into account that the Supreme Court ruling that specifically put a limit on the contributory infringement on the part of internet service providers.\nIn other words, there is a certain limit on how and when an internet service provider could be held liable for a copyright violation that takes place through one of its networks or online services.\nThe response submitted by the CCIA and CTA said that an internet service provider did not infringe copyrights merely by providing households access to the internet.\nIt further added that yet the district court allowed such a case to go to the jury, and asked the jury only whether Cox Communications materially contributed to infringement in any of the millions of households to which Cox offered internet access being an internet service provider.\nPiracy is, for the most part, bad. But that should give anyone the right to restrict internet access to all.\nAnd since this issue affects all those companies who provide their own brand of internet service, other internet service providers also chimed in and let their support known for Cox Communications in this particular case.\nOther stakeholders from the telecommunication industries put out their own statement that supported the stance taken up by Cox Communications through its appeal against the court\u2019s decision to hold it liable for copyright violations that took place through its internet services.\nOne of those stakeholders is United States Telecom Association and it said, through on its own statements, that the organization urged the appeals court to do whatever was necessary to try and reverse the handed down verdict since the verdict in its current form would basically force other internet service providers to forcefully disconnect their paying subscribers from their internet services based on nothing by one-sided piracy related accusations.\nThe United States Telecom Association said in its response that the decision forced other Internet Service Providers like Cox and USTelecom member companies to restrict consumers\u2019 access to the internet based on nothing more than unproven allegations of copyright infringements in the form of invalid DMCA notices which puts each member of the party in a precarious situation.\nThe response submitted by the United States Telecom Association also added that the verdict handed down against Cox Communications did little but to upset the delicate and careful balance of the interests of copyright holders, internet users, and Internet Service Providers that Congress struck in the DMCA.\nAnd as one might expect from other Telecom related companies as well, their submitted responses also raised similar points and issues.\nCox Communications\u2019 verdict could spell doom for the future of free internet access to all the people.\nThe American Cable Association and the Internet Commerce Coalition laid out some similar cases in the defense of internet service providers. The Internet Commerce Coalition highlighted one pertinent point which said that millions of copyright infringement claims that are sent to authorities by copyright holders are of dubious nature to the least and guards need to be put in place to act against that.\nThe feedback submitted by the Internet Commerce Coalition added that if the decision involving Cox Communications and BMG Rights Management, was not reversed, conduit Internet service providers, when they received unverified, machine-generated infringement claims from profit-seeking agents of copyright holders, would be strongly incentivized to cut off vital internet services to users, rather than face costly damage suits.\nThe statement from Internet Commerce Coalition also stated that this was not the system Congress intended when it enacted the DMCA and it should not be one imposed through a misinterpretation of COngress\u2019s plain words.\nAnother brother in arms by the name of Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and Public Knowledge highlighted their own set of concerns with their separate submissions.\nThe digital rights groups talked, at length, about the possible consequences the verdict against Cox Communications could have for the internet users not just in the United States of America but internet users all around the world where it might give repressive regimes direct control over who or what gets access to the internet when and where.\nThe EFF\u2019s statement noted that just as a tenant\u2019s water should not ordinarily be cut off when a landlord alleges nonrepayment of rent, a subscriber\u2019s connection to the internet should not be terminated in response to alleged copyright infringement except in the most extenuating circumstances.\nMost of the responses submitted by the telecom companies and other digital rights groups, seems to take the position that the internet service providers involved in the case were dealt a heavy hand by the district judge through a bad case of interpretation of the law that governs internet service provider\u2019s obligations under the DMCA.\nThe telecom companies were also of the opinion that the district court\u2019s verdict against Cox Communications should be altered if not reversed altogether. It was also made known that failing to do so would leave the end-user open to some gross violations of their fundamental right as a human being, that is, to have unrestricted internet access at all times.\nThe EFF and Public Knowledge also said that termination impeded the subscriber\u2019s ability to exercise on of our more cherished liberties which was the right of free expression and that termination potentially imposed those far-reaching effects on an entire household sharing the subscriber\u2019s internet connection.\nCan ISP\u2019s really control who does the pirating on their network?\nThat Does It For The Brief Submitted By Telecom Companies and Digital Rights Groups. What About Academic Institutions?\nNeedless to say, any issue that touches the lives of the common, modern, man would have responses coming from all sectors of the industry the least of all which is that of the Academic sector.\nSeveral academic groups and institutions voiced their own well-informed and rather dense, opinion on how they though a specific internet service provider should have been treated in the case between Cox Communications and BMG Rights Management.\nDo keep in mind that the collective response also includes responses from some library organizations and groups.\nThe American Library Association and The American Council on Education, were among many other participants who wanted to share their words on the Cox issue and expressed their fear that the verdict not only affected Cox Communications and the paid subscriber who may or may not have taken part in any copyright violation, but it also did not bear well for the future of educational access to the internet.\nIn fact, that particular internet access may even be restricted by unscrupulous authorities who might cite the verdict against Cox Communication as a precedent for any such move.\nThe American Council on Education and The American Library Association wrote that it could force educational institutions to restrict student access to the internet unreasonably and similarly, it could require libraries to limit broadband availability to people who had no other way of accessing information they needed for their tasks and/or daily routines.\nThe reply further said that the DMCA did not mandate a uniform repeat infringer policy and such uniformity would conflict with the flexibility afforded under the Higher Education Opportunity Act.\nWith so many submissions coming in from all sectors that are affected by the Cox Communications verdict, it comes clear that the Cox Communication issue is clearly important to a certain large sector of the country.\nIt is also predicted that many more responses will be submitted to the court in order to appeal against the verdict handed down to Cox Communications.\nOf course, the final decision remains with the appeals court to look into the matter and then deliberate on whether there is any room for a compromise or at least explore avenues where these opinions could be factored into the final verdict if it is changed at all.",

        "title": "How to install a VPN on your Nintendo Switch",
        "raw_content": "Nintendo Switch is awesome. But we want more. If you want more as well then read on.\nLet\u2019s get one thing out of the way right here and right now, Nintendo Switch is\nby no means an old gaming console hardware.\nHowever what we have come to know over the time is that if there is one thing that Nintendo Switch is good at then that is its VoD additions.\nThat alone makes it extremely appealing to a ton of online consumers around the world.\nPerhaps that is also the reason why so many people want to own this streaming cum gaming device.\nIn the beginning, there was Hulu.\nThen along came a thing that we know today as YouTube.\nNow, if various news publications are to be believed, Netflix is coming in to join the party as well.\nWe do not know what is going to happen in the future in precise terms, but whatever happens, it looks like Nintendo Switch has done everything to make sure that it has a bright future in front of it.\nHowever, if you really think about it, platforms such as Nintendo Switch are somewhat limited when it comes to people who live outside specific regions.\nWhat we mean is that if you do not live in the United States of America then you will have a hard time making full use of what is at your disposal in the form of Nintendo Switch.\nTherefore, we recommend that you make use of a VPN service in order to have complete and full access to each and everything that Nintendo Switch has to offer to users.\nFor fans of Street Fighter series, Ryu was better than Ken not because Ryu had more skills.\nBut because Ryu had more potential.\nAnd if you want to make sure that you are able to realize the full potential of Nintendo Switch you will need a VPN service.\nEven without a VPN service, the Nintendo Switch is great.\nBut it is only a KEN.\nTo make it a Ryu, you will need a VPN service.\nWe have written this guide in order to assist you in doing that as precisely as possible.\nHow to install a VPN service on a Nintendo Switch as quickly as possible.\nThe major problem that people face with Nintendo Switch is that it varies in its quality and quantity of content and what is on offer according to the country in which the online consumer is residing.\nIt is simply not enough to have a Nintendo Switch account anymore.\nTo cut the greatest amount of meat in the least amount of time, you need to have all the games/weapons at the ready.\nThen whenever you have those little 15 minutes or pockets of time available, you can just jump in and start gaming instead of wasting some good amount of time in determining which games you can purchase, which you can play and which you can end.\nA VPN service will make all of these things simple and straightforward.\nThe other thing we want you to understand about a VPN service is that it does not support VPN clients natively.\nSo what do you have to do if you find yourself in a situation like that?\nWell, the first thing that we want you to understand is that you should never worry.\nIf you have a single problem and you panic while solving that problem then the panic itself becomes the second problem.\nYou do not want to solve two problems.\nYou should be content with solving just one problem.\nWith the guide that we have written, you will pretty soon have a fast VPN connection set up on your Nintendo Switch device pretty much faster than trapping a thing called Mew Two in a place known as Cerulean Cave.\nHence, we need you to prepare yourself now.\nHere are the things that you need to do right now if you want to get a VPN service on your very own gaming console known as Nintendo Switch.\nStep 1: Set up a VPN on your router.\nBelieve it or not but setting up a WiFi router with a VPN service has never been easier.\nIn fact, our experience tells us that you do not even need to have a technology degree (if there is really one) to navigate right through the entire process of installing a VPN on the router.\nEssentially, what you need to do is that you need to follow the below-mentioned steps that we have mentioned.\nAfter you are done, we can almost guarantee that you will have every opportunity to share your VPN connection via your router.\nOf course, we are assuming here that you will follow this guide exactly as we have written it here and that you have a keyboard that is branded.\nIn other words, manufactured by a company such as ASUS.\nBut even if you have a router from a company like TP-Link it still should not take you long to get some real work done.\nThe best thing about following our guide is that you will have the opportunity to save your VPN connection with each and every internet-enabled device on your home network.\nYou will never have to worry about running out of a limited number of simultaneous VPN connection no matter which VPN service provider you sign up with.\nWe are aware of the fact that there are a lot of reputable VPN service providers that you can sign up for that offer a good number of simultaneous connections with the help of just one subscription package.\nWith that said, we can tell you from experience that it can prove insufficient at times.\nHence, we believe that the simple act of installing a VPN service on your router is actually the best thing that you can do to take full advantage of your gaming console Nintendo Switch.\nAgain, you will have the opportunity to do the same on your home network as well.\nStep 2: Share a complete VPN protected WiFi network from your Mac/PC.\nFor readers who feel like sharing a full VPN connection via their WiFi router is nothing but unneeded hassle, they should take our recommendation and share their WiFi network straight from their Mac or PC.\nOur research shows that the entire process is a rather simple one.\nBut the benefits, for the most part, are grand.\nWe have come here (some say from the future) to tell you that all Mac users have the option of turning their internet-enabled device into a virtual WiFi router and also share their VPN connection with the help of some simple guides that you can find on the internet pretty easily.\nWe also want to let you know people who are prone to operating on the Windows platform all get the chance to share their VPN connection (which is obviously secured) and Wi-Fi with as little problems as possible.\nJust click here to read a guide about that.\nAnd as was the case with a WiFi router thing, if you want to you really can share a VPN connection with the help of your Mac or PC in order to secure your WiFi connection on a multiple number of connections.\nOf course, there will also come those users who will never really understand what is going on and would continue to believe that installing a VPN service on their WiFi router is not only slightly hard but also something only for those who love technology like they love their cats.\nNow let\u2019s get to the part where we describe the perfect method in order to get a VPN on Nintendo Switch.\nStep 3: Install a Smart DNS service on your gaming console Nintendo Switch.\nNow we come to those online consumers who have this preference of making use of a Smart DNS proxy service to alter and/or modify their real geographic location.\nIn other words, online streamers in each and every part of the world have this strange attraction towards keeping their local TV channels intact.\nNot only do they want to do that, but they also want to keep those channels operating as smoothly as possible.\nWhat\u2019s more, while doing that, they also want to make sure that they are able to access content that has geo-restrictions on them.\nHowever, unlike a VPN service, services such as Smart DNS and others do not really do much to change the user\u2019s IP address.\nHowever, it does find success in tampering with the relevant parts that are present in any given URL which showcase the user\u2019s present whereabouts in the online world.\nBecause of that, even when you are accessing material which is geo-restricted on the internet, you still have the opportunity to make use of all your local content.\nOf course, the advantage of using a Smart DNS service over a VPN service is that you get to continue to work at the very same speed.\nWith a Smart DNS service, your internet connection does not have encryption.\nHowever, before we delve into more details about Smart DNS services and your Nintendo Switch, let\u2019s take a look a the very best VPN services that actually offer complete Smart DNS services with their online subscriptions.\nOf course, with that out of the way, here is the best way to set up a Smart DNS service on your very own Nintendo Switch.\nThe first step as always is to go to the Home Menu of your Nintendo Switch and then make your way to Settings.\nWhen that is done, you need to click on the option that says Internet and then do a bit of navigation to reach all the way to another similar sounding setting called Internet Settings.\nOnce you have done that you need to allow your internet-enabled device to search for each and every WiFi connection that is available in a nearby location.\nNow you need to select a network and then choose the option that says Change Settings.\nIn this step, we want you to go to the option of DNS settings on your device and then hit the option that says, Manual.\nNow you must delete all the numbers which are under the Primary and also the Secondary DNS spaces.\nThe next step is to enter the numbers that your new Smart DNS proxy service provided to you when you signed up for it.\nCongratulations you have finally managed to configure Nintendo Switch or more specifically its DNS settings.\nWhy do I need to make use of a VPN service for my Nintendo Switch?\nAs mentioned before, the Nintendo Switch had a limited number of options to offer to users.\nIn other words, it was limited to gaming only.\nHowever, then someone played the masterstroke of releasing two of the most popular games to ever have graced the surface of the earth.\nYou know which games are we talking about here.\nOf course, we are talking about blockbusters such as Pokemon and others.\nThere is also Go Eevee.\nAnd also Let\u2019s Go Pikachu.\nWith that said, it is also true that a while back Nintendo also mentioned that it would come about and add Video on Demand or VoD applications to its own official E-Store.\nAt the time, it said that it would do so in the very near future.\nAnd that is exactly what the company delivered.\nHulu and YouTube are now fully available on Nintendo Switch the gaming platform.\nAnd there is something even better that we would like to tell you about.\nNintendo Switch now provides you with the ability to channel your Nintendo Switch\u2019s screen directly to your TV with a much larger screen for a better viewing experience.\nThe only unfortunate thing here is that the likes of Hulu and other streaming services are only available to users who live in the United States of America.\nYou are in a unique position because you already have a clear idea on how to go about installing a VPN service on your official Nintendo Switch.\nHence, that would not cause a problem to you or to your Nintendo Switch device.\nAll that you really need to do here is to connect to a VPN server that is located in the region that you think would allow you to watch the channel that you are interested in.\nLet\u2019s continue with the example of Hulu.\nFor instance, to access Hulu you must connect to a VPN server that is located in the United States of America.\nAnd once you have formed a connection to that server, you should have no problems in receiving an IP Address that is totally American in nature no matter what your real location is on the world map.\nAdditionally, you also have to take into account the official launch of the service that we now know as Nintendo Switch Online.\nWith that service in place, you have every opportunity to make use of all the multiplayer features which pit you against the very best players around the globe.\nA good VPN service comes in real handy here if you want to put a stop to your internet service provider that has a tendency of throttling your internet connection a lot of the times.\nHowever, when you have formed the connection with a VPN service, you would pretty much avoid all that throttling along with getting rid of any and all latency problems which may arise as a result of the throttling and other malpractices on part of the users.\nWe still have not mentioned the fact that with a good VPN service in place you have the option of selecting whichever VPN server that you want to connect to.\nSo always try to connect to a server that offers you a better ping for a much faster and purer gaming experience.\nNow that we have had that out of the way, we would like you to give some more thought to the best VPNs for Nintendo Switch that we have mentioned above in another list of ours.\nConclusion: How to get a VPN on your Nintendo Switch.\nOur final thoughts include a lot of content about how a properly working and configured Nintendo Switch gaming console has everything you need to get up to speed with the new technology age.\nWe are also aware of the fact that you would probably need a good number of tech-savvy and not-so-straight-forward workaround in order to navigate through all the blocks and the limitations that come with Nintendo Switch and any VPN service.\nHowever, we want to assure that that everything that you will go through now will be truly worth it by the time you reach the end and fully know the power of the Nintendo Switch VPN.\nIf that is not cool then we do not know what is.\nWe have told you pretty much each and everything that you need in order to get VPN on the Nintendo Switch.\nIn simpler terms, we have shown you the way.\nNow you need to show us the will.\nSo purchase a VPN service today and then get it on a Nintendo Switch and start enjoying your stuff on Nintendo Switch to the absolute fullest degree.",

        "raw_content": "Warriors ready to stop talking and start playing\nBy Curtis Uemura :: SFBay October 26, 2015\nReporting from Oakland\nAfter all the talk about whom they faced \u2014 or more importantly, whom they didn\u2019t face \u2014 en route to their NBA title, the Warriors finally get to let out their pent-up frustration on the court Tuesday in their regular season debut as champions.\nThey\u2019ll have to endure their first test of the season without their head coach, as Steve Kerr is still recovering from complications from offseason back surgery and will miss at least the first game.\nLuke Walton is at the helm in the interim but has said Kerr continues to improve and make appearances at practice:\n\u201cHe\u2019s been coming around more and more each day, it\u2019s great having him around, the energy level is awesome, he knows the perfect thing to say when it needs to be said.\u201d\nWalton has had a busy summer as he was the head coach for the Warriors summer league team, then was promoted to lead assistant taking over for the departed Alvin Gentry on July 29, and now leads the defending champions in their first game.\nWARRIORS 2015 :: Klay Thompson splashes into NBA MVP conversation.\nEven though everyone knows that Kerr is eventually going to come back, Walton knows he has to exude authority in order for this team to work:\n\u201cI feel like the real coach right now. It has to be that way. The players have to look at me as the real coach and I have to act as if I\u2019m the real coach because that\u2019s the only way to get things done that need to get done in this situation that we\u2019re in.\u201d\nCurry admitted that not having Kerr on the bench is going to be a tough test for a team that has been criticized for not going through many last year:\n\u201cIt\u2019s just going to be different, like when you\u2019re used to something, change is kind of difficult to deal with. Obviously it\u2019s temporary but you\u2019re used to a certain flow in games and used to hearing his voice. But it doesn\u2019t affect our effort on the court, it doesn\u2019t affect our competitiveness and it doesn\u2019t affect our execution, we just have to take that to another level and as players be mature about the process.\u201d\nNot only do the Warriors start their title defense without their head coach, but they will square off against the now Gentry-led Pelicans, and star Anthony Davis.\nWARRIORS 2015 :: Golden State faces steep climb to second ring.\nThey will also be getting their championship rings before the game, which Curry said will be a hard emotional turnaround:\n\u201cIt\u2019ll be tough to be in the moment\u2026You want to enjoy that and take it in for what it is because that\u2019s a huge moment and a huge accomplishment and then five minutes later you have to turn it on and remember your preparation for the Pelicans, and try to get your first win at home. We didn\u2019t have a good experience game two of the Memphis series after my MVP thing so hopefully we learned how to quickly get our engines back going.\u201d\nIt\u2019s good that they\u2019ve experienced something similar because they can\u2019t afford to get off to a sluggish start. Golden State\u2019s first five games are against Western Conference playoff teams, capped by a November 4 matchup with the Clippers, a game both teams most likely have circled.\nDraymond Green said they are aware of what getting off to a good start means for the team:\n\u201cI think that\u2019s one of the things that was great for us last year is we got off to a phenomenal start and the rest of the year everybody else was playing catch up. So its definitely important to get off to a good start, you don\u2019t want to fall in a hole and be battling back uphill, it\u2019s important, we got a tough, tough, tough schedule to start off.\u201d\nThe start to their first season as NBA champions may be off to a rocky start, especially with an uneven preseason, but the Warriors couldn\u2019t be more eager to begin their title defense and try and prove everyone wrong. Again.\nHealthy Festus Ezeli targets more minutes\nTarget guard stole thousands in electronics",

Entitled the STAR (Sporting Talent & Academic Rewards) project, it is run in conjunction with TAP (Trinity Access Programmes), Shamrock Rovers F.C. and Trinity Sport.\nA lot of children dream of becoming professional footballers. Yet this dream often comes at a cost \u2013 their education. Now the STAR project hopes to go some way towards addressing this issue.\nThe year-long STAR project, to be piloted this September, is aimed at providing students from Tallaght and the inner city with an outreach programme that supports both their educational and sporting development. It will provide opportunities to engage with college life, thereby hopefully increasing participation rates in third level education.\nThe project was launched in Trinity today with a football tournament for 100 6thclass students taking place on campus from Monday to Wednesday (April 3-5).\nThe tournament culminates on Wednesday with a presentation to the students. This will be hosted by RT\u00c9 football pundit Richie Sadlier, with guest appearances from Damien Duff (Shamrock Rovers Academy Coach), Stephen McPhail (Shamrock Rovers Sporting Director), and John O\u2019Sullivan (Carlisle United).\nFootball pundit and psychotherapist Richie Sadlier sees the STAR project as a way to support the mental health of young players, while encouraging academic aspirations.\n\u201cI\u2019m delighted to be involved in a project that aims to support the educational, sporting and personal development of young people. Everyone involved is determined to make it a huge success, and hopefully similar initiatives will be rolled out everywhere in years to come.\u201d\nShamrock Rovers Chairman Jonathan Roche further added:\n\u201cShamrock Rovers are delighted and honored to partner with Trinity College. We recently opened a new training facility for our young players and we are striving to raise the bar in Irish football by developing our own talent on the pitch. A huge part of this is working with the kids off the pitch also. It is vitally important for us that kids are educated both on and off the pitch. This programme will show kids the importance of education and that football and education can go hand in hand.\u201d\nBetween 10am-1pm on Monday and Tuesday (April 3, 4) 100 students will play a football tournament in the Sports Centre, Trinity College Dublin.\nThen on Wednesday April 5, a team from each school will visit the campus for lunch, meet Trinity staff and students, and witness first-hand the diverse mix of people who study and work there. The final of the tournament will be held on College Park football pitch.\nBeginning in September 2017, up to 100 students will be invited to participate in bi-monthly activities during first year of secondary school that (1) keeps them engaged in and motivated towards their education (2) develops their elite sporting abilities and (3) supports the development of self-esteem and a resilient mindset.\nTo date, the project has invited 100 students from DEIS schools to participate in the football tournament, with 50 students from Tallaght and 50 from Dublin\u2019s inner city.\nFor the past 20 years, TAP (Trinity Access Programmes) has formed a central part of Trinity\u2019s plan to encourage young adults, adults and ethnic minority students who come from socio-economic groups under-represented in higher education, to go to university.\ntrinity college, star, tap, education",

Through the voices of campaigners, musicians, artists and politicians, Daniel Rachel follows the rise and fall of three key movements of the time: Rock Against Racism, 2 Tone, and Red Wedge, revealing how they all shaped, and were shaped by, the music of a generation.\nComposed of interviews with over a hundred and fifty of the key players at the time, Walls Come Tumbling Down is a fascinating, polyphonic and authoritative account of those crucial sixteen years in Britain's history.",

        "raw_content": "Keep It Clean Out There\nWhat the latest Corruption Perceptions Index might mean for your global site selection strategy.\nAuckland (pictured) was rated as the third most liveable city in the world by Mercer, New Zealand was fifth in the Legatum Institute\u2019s happiness study, and now New Zealand has tied with Denmark as the least corrupt nation in the world in Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index 2013.\nPhoto courtesy of Tourism New Zealand\nOne man's sweetheart deal is another man's fishy situation. For every project announcement celebrating collaboration, there are observers seeing coercion.\nYou say, \"flexible business climate.\" Somebody else says, \"Something's rotten in the state of Denmark.\"\nIn fact, however, Denmark is one of the two least rotten states in the world, according to the newest edition of the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), released this week by Berlin-based Transparency International, which is celebrating 20 years of flushing out bad behavior and steering countries and companies toward the high road. Denmark and New Zealand tie for first place with scores of 91. (More results appear below.)\nBut Hamlet's home is a rare bird, says the organization, as \"the abuse of power, secret dealings and bribery continue to ravage societies around the world.\" More than two thirds of the 177 countries in the 2013 index score below 50, on a scale from 0 (perceived to be highly corrupt) to 100 (perceived to be very clean).\n\"The Corruption Perceptions Index 2013 demonstrates that all countries still face the threat of corruption at all levels of government, from the issuing of local permits to the enforcement of laws and regulations,\" said Huguette Labelle, Chair of Transparency International. \"The top performers clearly reveal how transparency supports accountability and can stop corruption. Still, the better performers face issues like state capture, campaign finance and the oversight of big public contracts, which remain major corruption risks.\"\nThe CPI is based on experts\u2019 opinions of public sector corruption. Countries\u2019 scores can be helped by strong access to information systems and rules governing the behavior of those in public positions, while a lack of accountability across the public sector coupled with ineffective public institutions hurts these perceptions.\nCorruption within the public sector remains one of the world\u2019s biggest challenges, Transparency International said, particularly in areas such as political parties, police, and justice systems. Public institutions need to be more open about their work and officials must be more transparent in their decision-making. Future efforts to respond to climate change, economic crisis and extreme poverty will face a massive roadblock in the shape of corruption, the organization warned. International bodies like the G20 must crack down on money laundering (a particular target for international financial authorities scrutinizing free trade zones), make corporations more transparent and pursue the return of stolen assets.\n\"It is time to stop those who get away with acts of corruption. The legal loopholes and lack of political will in government facilitate both domestic and cross-border corruption, and call for our intensified efforts to combat the impunity of the corrupt,\" said Labelle.\nBen Elers, programs director for Transparency International, responded by email to questions from Site Selection:\nSite Selection:To what extent do you see perceptions of corruption in a given territory influencing global site selection decisions by companies? Do you know of specific examples of projects swayed by such considerations?\nBen Elers:The degree of corruption risk associated with a particular territory is extremely relevant in evaluating the risks associated with that selection. The higher the risk of corruption, the greater the risks all around. Such risks include financial, legal and reputational risks. Companies who fully, accurately and realistically value their corruption risk will find that what appears at first to be a \u201ccheap\u201d site or a bargain could become very costly, in terms of fines, breach of domestic and/or US law and corporate reputation.\nWhile we are not aware of any particular project that was swayed by the CPI, we know that companies rely on the CPI for risk assessments in other areas, most notably in anti-money laundering compliance. Clients or transactions emanating from countries that perform poorly in the CPI are subject to a higher degree of scrutiny by financial institutions that need to ensure that they are not engaging in, facilitating or promoting the laundering of proceeds of corruption.\nSS: In terms of location decision-making, what guidance does Transparency International offer multinational corporations trying to avoid corruption (or its perception) while also negotiating the best deal possible with the territory in question?\nBE: In order for companies to protect themselves against the risks associated with corruption, they need to put in place a robust and comprehensive anti-corruption program. Such a program is outlined in the Business Principles for Countering Bribery, developed through an extensive multi-stakeholder process and recently re-released. The Business Principles are that:\nThe enterprise shall prohibit bribery in any form whether direct or indirect.\nThe enterprise shall commit to implementing a Program to counter bribery. The Program shall represent the enterprise\u2019s anti-bribery efforts including values, code of conduct, detailed policies and procedures, risk management, internal and external communication, training and guidance, internal controls, oversight, monitoring and assurance.\nCrucially, companies should make the key elements of their anti-corruption programs public so that all stakeholders can monitor their anti-corruption performance and hold them accountable. Such stakeholders include not only regulators, but employees, clients, investors and civil society.\nSS: What have your years of analysis revealed in terms of the \"corruption opportunity,\" i.e. the possibility that locating in a territory with a higher perception of corruption, despite the risks involved, might afford a company the opportunity to make more money there because of the potential for dealmaking and a \"flexible\" business climate.\nBE: While in the short run, a corrupt environment may appear to create opportunities, our experience shows that such \u201copportunities\u201d are illusory and transient. The costs to a company of making mistakes when it comes to corruption are high and are getting higher. The costs can come in many forms: falling share price, direct costs (such as fines) or indirect costs (including soft costs for audits, monitors, etc.). This is why we caution companies to consider the longer term in order to ensure a sustainable business.\nFCPA Compliance Under the Microscope\nIn the United States, The U.S. Dept. of Justice and the Securities Exchange Commission lead legal and regulatory scrutiny of corporate compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). According to a just-published National Law Review article by three lawyers at Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP about the 30th International Conference on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act held in November, US regulators in attendance \u201cdiscussed the near-record amount of FCPA penalties in 2013 and disclosed that there are more than 150 ongoing FCPA investigations.\u201d However, those make up a small fraction of the 6,573 tips and complaints received by the SEC\u2019s Office of the Whistleblower since its establishment in August 2011.\nA November Bloomberg report noted that both Chinese and US regulators are looking harder at bribery and corruption incidents in China, with current cases involving JPMorgan Chase & Co., GlaxoSmithKline and Avon, and recent cases involving such reputable firms as Pfizer and IBM.\nThe article notes that law firm Shearman & Sterling LP represents clients in matters related to the FCPA, and maintains an FCPA database and website devoted to cases and trends. In a summery of 2012 FCPA activity published in January 2013, the firm noted that the government brought 12 enforcement actions against corporations: Marubeni, Smith & Nephew, BizJet/Lufthansa Technik, Biomet, Data Systems & Solutions, Orthofix, NORDAM, Pfizer/Wyeth, Tyco International, Oracle, Allianz, and Eli Lilly. It also offered the following highlights:\nOver $260 million in penalties in 2012, but the average penalties ($21.7 million) and the adjusted average ($17.7 million) were both considerably down from previous years;\nSignificantly fewer new cases against individuals;\nFew appointments of independent monitors, with an emerging default of self-monitoring and reporting;\nA wealth of sentencings, with widely disparate results, reflecting in part differing judicial attitudes to the FCPA and white collar crimes in general;\nContinued aggressive theories of jurisdiction and parent-subsidiary liability;\nComprehensive (but not groundbreaking) official guidance on the FCPA from the DOJ and SEC, as well as revisions to guidance on the U.K. Bribery Act previously issued by the U.K. enforcement authorities; and\nIncreased enforcement outside the United States and the likely adoption of deferred prosecutions in the United Kingdom.\nReleased in November 2012, \u201cA Resource Guide to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act\u201d is the Department of Justice's and Securities and Exchange Commission's detailed compilation of information about the FCPA, its provisions, and enforcement. It is the product of extensive efforts by experts at DOJ and SEC, and has benefited from valuable input from the Departments of Commerce and State.\nThe guide \u201cendeavors to provide helpful information to enterprises of all shapes and sizes \u2014 from small businesses doing their first transactions abroad to multi-national corporations with subsidiaries around the world,\u201d says the government. \u201cThe Guide addresses a wide variety of topics, including who and what is covered by the FCPA's anti-bribery and accounting provisions; the definition of a \u2018foreign official\u2019; what constitute proper and improper gifts, travel and entertainment expenses; the nature of facilitating payments; how successor liability applies in the mergers and acquisitions context; the hallmarks of an effective corporate compliance program; and the different types of civil and criminal resolutions available in the FCPA context.\nHowever, a poll conducted during a Grant Thornton webcast earlier this year on the new anti-corruption guidance found that 52 percent of the nearly 150 participants surveyed indicated that even with new guidelines, they are unclear about the SEC\u2019s and DOJ\u2019s compliance expectations. \u201cOf those surveyed, 40 percent responded that it is too early to tell how the new guidance will affect the way they conduct business. The survey results reflect the uncertainty many executives still have about federal anti-corruption laws and what compliance efforts are required,\u201d said the advisory firm. A separate question found that 30 percent had no risk-based FCPA compliance policy in place.\nThere is also no shortage of advisory and consulting expertise on FCPA compliance, including at such firms as Kroll, Deloitte and AlixPartners, among others.\nUltimately, says Transparency International\u2019s Ben Elers, \u201cWhat is required is concerted collective action by businesses, governments and civil society which will contribute towards a clean, level playing field, not a race to the bottom where there are no real winners.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "One podcaster\u2019s (fruitless) quest to replace Skype\nEvery now and then when I complain about Skype, which most of my podcast peers and I use for our conversations, someone suggests an alternative voice-over-IP service and asks why we don\u2019t switch.\nThe truth is, Skype\u2019s terribleness may be overstated\u2014people get cranky when they\u2019re entirely dependent on a single product and that product isn\u2019t reliable\u2014and the product has gotten better recently after a few particularly rocky months.\nBut it\u2019s not just about abandoning Skype. Yes, there are numerous services that will let multiple people connect over the Internet and have a voice conversation.1 Yes, we could move to Google Hangouts or some other web-based business conferencing tool or video game chat app2.\nBut here\u2019s the thing: Everybody I know uses Skype. If I\u2019m going to start the painful process of moving house\u2014of getting everyone I\u2019m on a podcast with to, over the course of many months, upgrade their software and get used to a new way of working\u2014I want to move to something that is vastly superior to what we\u2019re currently using. There is no point in dealing with transition costs\u2014inevitably including many lost minutes as everyone waits for someone to install unfamiliar software and figure out how to use it\u2014to make a lateral move.3\nLeaving aside the fact that I have no real faith that alternative option X is actually better than Skype\u2014one person\u2019s \u201cI\u2019ve never had any problems\u201d can be another person\u2019s \u201comigod it was a disaster\u201d\u2014I\u2019ve decided that I\u2019m leaving Skype only if I\u2019m forced to or if I can find a tool that solves other problems specific to podcasters.\nRight now, the biggest issues I have with Skype, beyond the occasional bout of unreliability, are related to recording audio. This isn\u2019t Skype\u2019s fault\u2014it wasn\u2019t built with recording podcasts in mind!\u2014but it\u2019s a necessity for podcasters. While I\u2019m doing a podcast, I need to record my own microphone and, ideally, the rest of the conversation\u2014and in separate files or on separate tracks. And all of my panelists need to record their own microphones, locally, at full quality. (You can read more about this in my \u201cHow I Podcast: Recording\u201d article.)\nOn the Mac, this is pretty easy. I bought a bunch of copies of Ecamm Call Recorder for Skype, which is a plug-in that integrates recording right into Skype, and distributed them to my most frequent panelists. For people who don\u2019t have Call Recorder, QuickTime can record audio fairly easily. On Windows, it\u2019s more complicated\u2014the podcast guest guide that I use recommends downloading the free audio app Audacity. More complexity means there are more chances to do something wrong. (This leads me to an additional feature I require: The software involved needs to be dead simple for a novice guest to set up correctly.)\nAnd then there\u2019s iOS, where this is just impossible. You can\u2019t record your microphone locally while talking on Skype. This severely limits iOS podcasting.\nPlus there are some things that Skype does really well, that any replacement needs to do a decent job at. Skype massages audio before it reaches you, leveling and boosting audio and removing background noise and echoes. Its servers merge audio streams together so that multi-person conversations can happen even on on low-bandwidth connections. Skype may have its issues, but it\u2019s also got a lot of strengths that I didn\u2019t appreciate until I began investigating alternatives.\nSo if I\u2019m going to move from Skype, I need to move to something that won\u2019t be dramatically worse than Skype in terms of stability and audio quality, and it needs to make it easier to record podcast audio across all major platforms, desktop and mobile.\nThis is a big ask. And it turns out, there\u2019s basically no solution today. But there is hope.\nThe closest we\u2019ve come are two web services, Cast and Zencastr. Both of these services rely on WebRTC, a browser-based set of real-time communication protocols that let browsers transfer audio and video without special plug-ins. Both services automatically record the local audio of participants and upload them to a remote server, so panelists don\u2019t need to install or run any special software to have their high-quality audio captured for later use.\nCast costs $10/month for its basic plan. I\u2019ve used it for several months in the recording of the TV Talk Machine podcast, and have found it to be quite reliable. It can\u2019t handle conferences with more than four participants, including the host, which disqualifies it from my large panels on The Incomparable, but most podcasts don\u2019t have panels with five or six people in them. (And an expansion of that limit is forthcoming.)\nZencastr has a basic free tier, but to record with more than one guest it\u2019s $20/month. Zencastr claims it can handle \u201cunlimited\u201d guests, though I haven\u2019t tested this and suspect it will bog down quickly if you have a large panel. I\u2019ve used it a few times and found it a little less reliable than Cast\u2014I\u2019ve seen files cut off a few seconds too early, and the quality of the live audio connection had more artifacts than I\u2019ve seen with Cast.\nI appreciate Zencastr\u2019s cloud-storage integration: all source files are automatically deposited in my Dropbox after a session is over. In contrast, Cast makes me wait for several minutes before I can download my files.\nIf you\u2019re recording a podcast with three or four participants, Cast\u2019s $10/month plan is a pretty good deal. If it\u2019s just a one-on-one chat, Zencastr\u2019s free tier is even better. For more than four participants, though, you\u2019re back to Zencastr and you\u2019ll pay $20/month for the privilege. Still, there\u2019s a lot to be said for automatically recording panelist audio without any intervention.\n\u2026but then there\u2019s mobile. The fact is, Safari doesn\u2019t support WebRTC right now, so you can\u2019t use either Cast or Zencastr on an iPad or iPhone. It looks like WebKit will support WebRTC at some point in the near future, but we might not see support in iOS until 2018.\nIn looking for a solution that would work on my iPhone or iPad, I discovered Ringr, which offers built-in microphone recording and supports WebRTC on the desktop and offers iOS and Android apps. Unfortunately, Ringr only supports one-on-one calls, so while it would work great for two-person podcasts, that\u2019s all it supports. A recent Ringr email to customers suggests multi-user conferences are forthcoming.\nFor the record, business-conference-call apps with desktop and mobile versions don\u2019t support recording of local microphone tracks. Some of them will record the entire conference call on the server, which is cool, but that\u2019s only good for reference\u2014for the best podcast audio, you want to record the microphone at the source.\nSo the end result of all this? I\u2019ve got a close eye on Zencastr, Cast, and on the progress of implementing WebRTC in WebKit. But for now, there doesn\u2019t seem to be a single voice-over-IP product of any kind that will work on Mac, Windows, and iOS and automatically record local audio.\nSince many of my podcasts feature more than two people, two-person tools like FaceTime are not an option. \u21a9\nThe open-source gaming VoIP app Mumble offers multi-track recording and mobile clients, but recordings aren\u2019t supported on mobile and its ease of use is what you\u2019d expect from an open-source project. \u21a9\nThis isn\u2019t just about Skype, but the tools people use to record their audio\u2014if we leave Skype, often those tools have to change, too. \u21a9",

        "raw_content": "The Military\u2019s Cyber Defenses Are in Appallingly Bad Shape\nOur ability to win a war may be in doubt.\nPhoto illustration by Slate. Photo by Staff/AFP/Getty Images.\nI have just read one of the most appalling national security reports that I\u2019ve seen in quite a while, an account of such neglect and malfeasance inside the Pentagon and the defense industries that, if we were to get into a major war, the trillions of dollars that we\u2019ve spent on advanced weapons over the years might be all for naught. Our ability to win such a war may be in doubt.\nThe report, by the Government Accountability Office, is called Weapon Systems Cybersecurity: DOD Just Beginning to Grapple With Scale of Vulnerabilities. It\u2019s the subtitle that should make jaws drop.\nThey should have begun to grapple with them decades ago.\nIn 1967, at the dawn of the internet, a handful of computer scientists warned that networks, which allow access to information from many unsecured locations, would produce inherent vulnerabilities.\nIn 1984, President Ronald Reagan signed the first presidential directive warning of dangerous gaps in computer security.\nSince 1991, various scientific panels warned that modern computerized weapons and sensors are vulnerable to hacking by criminals, foreign spies, or even fairly unsophisticated troublemakers.\nIn 1997, in a top-secret exercise called Eligible Receiver 97, two dozen members of the National Security Agency\u2014using commercial equipment\u2014hacked into all of the Defense Department\u2019s networks, including the National Military Command Center. This center serves as the liaison between the president and various combatant commands, including the nuclear weapons complex under Strategic Command.\nThe Defense Department is only \u201cin the early stage of trying to understand how to apply cybersecurity to weapon systems.\u201d\nAfter that incident, Pentagon officials installed intrusion-detection systems on hundreds of computers and created Joint Task Force-Computer Network Defense, which set up a 24/7 cybersecurity watch center and devised protocols for responding to intrusions. Other organizations of growing sophistication followed, culminating in 2010, with the establishment of U.S. Cyber Command.\nAnd yet, after all these studies and warnings and revelations (and I\u2019ve cited only a few), this new GAO report\u2014which was first reported on Wednesday evening in the New York Times\u2014concludes that the Defense Department is only \u201cin the early stage of trying to understand how to apply cybersecurity to weapon systems.\u201d Note the language: It\u2019s not that Pentagon officials are in \u201cthe early stage\u201d of applying cybersecurity to weapon systems (which would be tardy enough); they\u2019re in the early stage of merely \u201ctrying to understand\u201d how to do so.\nThis is the case, even though, as the report notes, these systems \u201care more software- and IT-dependent, and more networked, than ever.\u201d\nNow, to some degree, vulnerability goes with the territory. A quarter-century ago, the Defense Department realized that digital technology and computerized networks would improve the military in many ways. They would give troops and commanders a wider view of the battlefield, allow them to coordinate and respond to intelligence data more rapidly, and enable the weapons themselves to hit targets with astonishing accuracy. What no one realized at the time was that outsiders could intrude into these networks, and not just monitor but also copy, alter, or delete the data. In other words, they could distort the picture of the battlefield, falsify intelligence, and turn smart bombs into wayward ones.\nIn the private sector, IT specialists have come up with ways to deal with these vulnerabilities and at least mitigate their impact: changing passwords, patching software flaws, logging files, and separating truly vital networks from routine ones, among others.\nThe problem is that, in many cases, the Defense Department and weapons contractors have failed to take even these basic measures. In some cases, according to the GAO, red-team hackers have correctly guessed administrators\u2019 passwords in as little as 9 seconds. In many cases, weapons operators have received software updates to patch vulnerabilities\u2014but haven\u2019t installed them. Rarely do the operators log files to look for hackers. In many cases (and this may be most inexcusable at all), programs for \u201clogistics, personnel, and other business-related systems\u201d are \u201cconnected to the same network as weapon systems.\u201d If hackers get into one of these less sensitive systems, they can slide easily into the most sensitive ones.\nAs a result, government hackers who test these systems \u201croutinely find mission-critical cyber vulnerabilities in nearly all weapons under development.\u201d The report goes on: \u201cUsing relatively simple technology and techniques, testers were able to take control of these systems and largely operate undetected.\u201d In one case, it took a two-person team one hour to gain partial access to a system\u2014just one day to gain full control. In other cases, hackers were able to take control of the operators\u2019 terminals\u2014seeing, in real time, what the operators were seeing and then manipulating the view.\nIn January 2013, nearly six years ago, a panel of the Defense Science Board released a 138-page report, based on an 18-month study, that reached similar conclusions. It cataloged several recent U.S. military war games and exercises that tested the cybersecurity of weapons or communications systems, and concluded that the hackers \u201cinvariably\u201d penetrated the defenses, \u201cdisrupting or completely beating\u201d the side being hacked.\n\u201cThe network connectivity that the United States has used to tremendous advantage, economically and militarily, over the past 20 years,\u201d the DSB report observed, \u201chas made the country more vulnerable than ever to cyber attacks.\u201d The report concluded: \u201cThe United States cannot be confident that our critical Information Technology systems\u201d\u2014including military systems\u2014\u201cwill work under attack from a sophisticated and well-resourced opponent.\u201d\nJudging from the GAO report, nothing has changed in the interim five years, much less in the 20 years since the first major studies, simulations, and real-life hacks that one might have thought would prod the U.S. military and its weapons manufacturers into action.\nOne problem is that the whole issue is still a sideline in the defense industry. The report notes that when manufacturers and Pentagon officials test new weapon systems to see if they perform as well as their requirements had specified, they usually don\u2019t measure their resistance to a cyberattack.\nWhich leads to a more basic problem: a severe shortage of cybersecurity officials and officers. In many of the hacking tests, the operators of weapon systems didn\u2019t know they were being hacked; the intrusion-detection system gave a warning, but they didn\u2019t know what it meant\u2014or, if they did, they didn\u2019t know what to do.\nIn one sense, this isn\u2019t the Defense Department\u2019s fault. As the GAO report laments, it\u2019s hard for the DOD, or the government overall, to hire and maintain skilled cyber technicians, who could earn more than $200,000 a year in the private sector. This is a problem, but it isn\u2019t an insuperable one. The GAO estimates that the Pentagon will spend $1.66 trillion in the coming years on high-tech weapons. It shouldn\u2019t be hard to come up with a couple billion more to give those weapons a decent chance of working.\nCybersecurity Military National Security",

At this point, the Catalan group is at the bottom of the standings, being the 14th, quite close to the places leading to the Segunda Division. In the previous round of the Spanish Cup, the \u201cwhite-red\u201d offered a huge surprise, managing to eliminate the Atletico Madrid. Eusebio Sacristan\u2019s band is in a very poor form, given the fact that comes after ten games without success, the last three being defeats, losing with Betis, Real Madrid and Barcelona, \u200b\u200bfrom which he received nine goals.\nReal Madrid is a much stronger team, which has a very valuable lot, so he can afford to claim any winning trophy. In the championship, the team in the Spanish capital has a chances to win the title, being away from the first place, hoping for the Champions League performance, where he will play with Ajax in the eighth, but also in the Spanish Cup, being a semifinals. Solari\u2019s band has shown a good deal lately in the previous three games winning Sevilla, Girona and Espanyol, against whom he scored ten times. Real Madrid lost only once in the last seven away games, with Leganes, in a match somewhat unrealistic.\nSoccer predictions analyzed Girona vs Real Madrid\nIn this match we expect the show, as in the first hand, but we will not bet on goals, but we will choose corners, starting from the premise that we will have many phases of the gate.\nBetting Prediction: More than 8.5 corners\nPrediction Today: More than 10.5 corners",

        "raw_content": "Dear Auditioning 8th Graders\u2026\nFrom Molly Bond, Class of 2015, fondly known as Smolly within our Cdub circle.\nIf you\u2019re like me, you\u2019re so nervous about this audition that you\u2019re spending all your time sobbing in bed with a cup of coffee and a tear-soaked cat. To make things easier for you, we\u2019re trying to demystify the audition process as much as possible because a lot of us enter room 202 with absolutely no clue on what to expect. Let\u2019s start with common misconceptions:\n1. \u201cI should act as artsy-fartsy as possible because this is an ARTS school I\u2019m applying to and they want ARTSY kids!\u201d\nPlease, please please please please please, do not put on an artsy \u201cact\u201d. Heather will be able to tell, and in Creative Writing, we want people who are honest.\n2. \u201cHeather will judge me and my family and everything I stand for! I should act as normal as possible so as not to appear odd!\u201d\nI can\u2019t think of one person in creative writing who isn\u2019t unusual in some way. It\u2019s great. Normal people are boring, so just be yourself. At the same time, don\u2019t go out of your way to seem \u201cedgy\u201d or \u201ceccentric\u201d just to interest Heather. I mean, we\u2019re all unique little snowflakes and stuff, but enough is enough.\n3. \u201cI want to make an IMPACT! When we\u2019re asked to write during the audition, I\u2019ll write about LOVE and LIFE and the AMERICAN DREAM and THE UNIVERSE because those are the only things worth writing about!\u201d\nTry to think small here. Just because the topic isn\u2019t huge doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not a meaningful story. (Midori: As a matter of fact, I frequently find that it\u2019s the little stories that interest me. I\u2019d take a haiku about the pains of finals week over a poetic rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner any day.)\nAnd for some things that are true:\n1. Creative writing is fun. Of course, most of our time is spent writing, reading, and discussing literature, but we are also quite good at laughing and eating cake.\n2. Creative writing is difficult. There is homework, and you are expected to put a fair amount of effort into it. The books we read are advanced and the our discussions are college-level. (Midori: But don\u2019t let this intimidate you. Refer to Truth #1.)\n3. We are like a family. We all get along swimmingly (for the most part) and I personally feel very close to every single person in the department, even though I\u2019ve only been here for half a year. Our department is small, too, maximizing the family feel. (Expect enormous, if not excessive amounts of snuggling.)\n1. Bring a list of books you like to read so that you don\u2019t freak out when Heather asks.\n2. Have a sense of humor. If things go wrong, don\u2019t slip into a coma.\n3. If you don\u2019t get in, try again! A great way to revise is by going to 826 Valencia writing programs. If you still don\u2019t get in, it\u2019s because the program isn\u2019t right for you. You may be disappointed, but it\u2019s not as bad as entering the department just to find out you\u2019re not in the right place.\n4. Read Umlaut to get an idea of what kind of work we produce in CW. Not only is it an entertaining read, but also you support our department with your purchase. sotacw.org/umlaut has more information.\nGood luck, soldier.\n-Smolly\nFor all those interested in applying to SOTA\u2019s Creative Writing department, you must submit your applications and portfolios by 3 p.m. Friday, December 2.\nThis round of auditions will be held on January 17th, so be sure to show your shiny, eager faces when the time comes to interview.\nVegas, Baby! Auditions\nAuditions are tomorrow! Please bring two pieces you are interested in reading for the show, four copies each. For all freshmen, this will probably run late (really late), so either clear your plans or make arrangements with Heather to go first.",

        "raw_content": "News reports this month lauded improvements in reading achievement but there has been very little improvement in the eleven years since 2002 as you can see in this graph from the NAEP website: http://nationsreportcard.gov/reading_math_2013/#/gains-percentiles\nTo access reading scores in place of mathematics scores, click on the bar just under the caption, \u201cAre higher and lower performing students making gains?\u201d\nHere is their explanation of the terms, basic, proficient, and advanced:\nSeveral years ago in the Introduction to Sound Bytes Reading, I wrote:\nAccording to the National Center for Education Statistics, 34 % of fourth graders in the USA read at only a basic level and another 34% read below a basic level. In eighth grade, 43 % read at a basic level and 27% read below a basic level. Our goal should be for all students to become proficient readers, yet 68% of fourth graders and 70% of eighth graders cannot read at a proficient level.\nRecently the following statement about the 2013 Nation\u2019s Report Card was made by the president of The Center for Education Reform, Kara Kerwin:\nIt\u2019s a disgrace and truly incomprehensible that after decades of mediocrity, we celebrate today the fact that only 34 percent of our nation\u2019s 8th graders can read at grade level and only 34 percent are proficient in math.\nhttp://www.edreform.com/2013/11/cer-statement-on-the-2013-nations-report-card/\nOther news sources made these statements:\nWhile overall performance remains poor, this year\u2019s report card does show improvement. Nationally, math scores were higher in 2013 than they have been since 1990 for both grades and for all student demographic groups. What\u2019s more, the percentage of students who scored \u201cadvanced\u201d on the tests was higher in 2013 than in any year since 1990.\nhttp://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/nina-rees/2013/11/11/nations-report-card-shows-progress-in-reading-and-math\nThe latest National Assessment of Educational Progress from the U.S. Department of Education shows that many high school seniors are graduating unable to read at grade level, and one in four cannot read at even the most basic level. Just 38 percent of 12th graders were proficient in reading.\nhttp://abcnews.go.com/US/nations-report-card-shows-american-students-struggle-reading/story?id=12186446\nIn an EdWeek.com article, \u201cNAEP Results Show Math Gains, But 4th Grade Reading Still Flat,\u201d Erik Robelen wrote:\nThe nation\u2019s 4th and 8th graders have inched up in mathematics, new test data show, but the results are more mixed in reading, with 4th grade scores flat compared with two years ago. Overall, achieving proficiency in reading and math on the National Assessment of Educational Progress, known as \u201cthe nation\u2019s report card,\u201d remains an elusive goal for the majority of American students. Only about one-third reached that level or higher in reading.\nhttp://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2011/11/09/11naep-2.h31.html\nThe 2013 Nation\u2019s Report Card can be seen here:\nhttp://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/subject/publications/main2013/pdf/2014451.pdf\nHave we really improved reading achievement? Not much. But we could improve a lot more if we followed the guidelines outlined in the April 2000 \u201cReport of the National Reading Panel.\u201d They outlined what a good reading program should include: Phonemic Awareness instruction, Systematic Phonics Instruction, Vocabulary Instruction, Guided Oral Reading, Independent Reading, Fluency Instruction, and Comprehension Instruction.\nhttp://www.nationalreadingpanel.org/publications/summary.htm\nThe components of a good reading program should not be taught in isolation. Children who are learning to read should be learning the sounds of the letters, decode words using those same letter-sounds, and read a story using the words they just learned. Make sure students know the meanings of new words before reading a story. If students can decode well, fluency will not be difficult. Check comprehension by asking questions about the story. Let\u2019s follow good practice and improve reading instruction!",

        "title": "Lockheed Martin Developing Successor to the SR-71 Blackbird - SourceTech411",
        "raw_content": "Lockheed Martin Developing Successor to the SR-71 Blackbird\nLockheed Martin SR-72 Concept\nWhen the last SR-71 Blackbird was grounded in 1998 it was a double blow. Not only did aviation lose one of the most advanced aircraft ever built, but also one of the most beautiful. Lockheed Martin\u2019s Skunk Works has now revealed that it is building a successor to the Blackbird: the SR-72. Using a new hypersonic engine design that combines turbines and ramjets, the company says that the unmanned SR-72 will be twice as fast as its predecessor with a cruising speed of Mach 6.\nThe SR-71 Blackbird is one of history\u2019s great aircraft. It was built during the Cold War in the early 1960s by Lockheed at its secret Skunk Works facility and flew from 1966 to 1998. With black paint covering its unprecedented titanium fuselage, it was designed as a reconnaissance platform capable of flying 2,900 nautical miles (5,400 km) at sustained supersonic speeds at an altitude of 80,000 ft (24,000 m).\nThe Blackbird could fly so fast and so high that it could literally outrun enemy missiles, and routinely did. Needless to say, it left interceptors far behind and of the 32 that were built, not one was lost to enemy action. It even grew stronger over the years because the heat generated in flight was so great that the titanium hull annealed.\nThe SR-71 was also famous for holding a raft of records. It was the world\u2019s fastest and highest-flying operational manned aircraft, reaching 85,069 feet (25,929 m) in sustained flight, and it still holds the speed record. On September 1, 1976, a US Air Force SR-71 Blackbird flew from New York to London in 1 hour 54 minutes and 56.4 seconds at a peak velocity of about Mach 3.2 (2,436 mph, 3920 km/h). To this day, no aircraft exists that can match its performance.\nTo the end it was still breaking records. After the Cold War ended, many SR-71s ended up in museums as the program was wound up. When one SR-71 was delivered to the Smithsonian Institution in 1990, it broke four speed records flying from Los Angeles to Cincinnati, Ohio.\nThe idea of a hypersonic replacement has been kicked around for years, and now Lockheed is working on the SR-72. Unlike its predecessor, the SR-72 will be unmanned, but it will be twice as fast with a cruising speed of Mach 6 (4,567 mph, 7,350 km/h).\nThe SR-72\u2019s purpose is to provide the United States with not only a hypersonic recon platform, but also a strike aircraft as well. \u201cHypersonic aircraft, coupled with hypersonic missiles, could penetrate denied airspace and strike at nearly any location across a continent in less than an hour,\u201d says Brad Leland, Lockheed Martin program manager, Hypersonics. \u201cSpeed is the next aviation advancement to counter emerging threats in the next several decades. The technology would be a game-changer in theater, similar to how stealth is changing the battle space today.\u201d\nAccording to Leland, a Mach 6 platform would not only leave very little time for an enemy to respond, but it also be a very effective way to launch hypersonic missiles. Since these wouldn\u2019t need a booster rocket when launched at six times the speed of sound, they can be of much lighter and simpler construction.\nThe key to the SR-72 is what Lockheed calls Turbine-Based Combined Cycle Propulsion, which incorporates Lockheed\u2019s experience in building the HTV-2 hypersonic demonstrator that flew at Mach 20 (15,224 mph, 24,501 km/h) in tests. In this new system, the twin engines of the SR-72 are actually two engines in one. Each engine shares combined inlets and nozzles connected to two very different powerplants as a way to significantly reduce drag.\nThe upper engine is a turbine, which is used to power the SR-72 as it takes off from a conventional runway and accelerates it to Mach 3. Then the lower dual-mode ramjet takes over and accelerates the plane to Mach 6. The significance of this design is that Lockheed collaborated for seven years with Aerojet Rocketdyne on figuring out how to use an off-the-shelf turbine that could be incorporated into a hypersonic jet system.\nIn an interview with Aviation Week, which broke the story, Leland explained that the retirement of the SR-71 left significant gaps in the satellites, subsonic manned and unmanned platforms meant to replace it, which the SR-72 will fill. The article went on to point out that the SR-72 program is meant to dovetail with the Pentagon\u2019s hypersonic research and weapons programs, which has dictated the timetable and many design parameters.\nAccording to Leland, no new technologies needed to be invented for the SR-72 so a demonstration aircraft could fly by 2018, and the plane could be operational by 2030. \u201cThe demonstrator is about the size of the F-22, single-engined and could fly for several minutes at Mach 6,3\u201d says Leland. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It will be about the size.\nSR-72UAV",

        "raw_content": "For my undergraduate study, I majored in mathematics but for my master\u2019s degree I chose statistics. At that time, I thought of statistics as a more applied subject. It can be applied to many other areas, and the ability to process and analyze data is very important because we are in a data centric era. Then for my doctoral degree, I wanted to focus on something more specific and I thought about how I could use my degree to make lives better. My philosophy is that knowledge originates from people\u2019s pursuit of better lives and curiosity about the unknown, forms through relentless exploration, and eventually should be applied to the improvement of people\u2019s well-being. So, I chose biostatistics as my doctoral major. Through my ongoing training, I have become determined to be a biostatistician and contribute my strengths to make a difference in patients\u2019 lives and make medicines accessible to more people in need.\nThe PhD program of University of Buffalo attracted me because of its concentration on both theoretical learning and practical training. Real world practice can teach us many valuable experiences and the knowledge gained is not something that can be learned strictly through reading books. With that in mind, I always hold the opinion that practical application is as essential as theoretical learning. At UB\u2019s biostatistics program, students can not only have solid theoretical training, but also have a tremendous opportunity to have hands-on experience with real world projects under supervision of senior faculty members.\nTell me about your experience in the Bioinformatics and Biostatistics program.\nFor my doctoral study, I worked with a passionate and diligent professor, Dr. Jiwei Zhao, to research statistical methodologies. I got systematical training on how to conduct research, and together with Dr. Jiwei Zhao, we have achieved some exciting results. Apart from research work, my experiences of being a research assistant to several multidisciplinary projects enabled me to understand how to communicate effectively with people from different fields and to apply theoretical work to real world study.\nWhat I loved most about this program was that it perfectly combined theoretical learning and real-world practice, offering students hands-on experiences to better understand the information we learned in the classroom. Furthermore, this program also offered me the freedom to practice and expand on my own thoughts.\nUB provides all-round resources to its students, allowing us to gain knowledge and develop skills necessary to help in the development of society. The solid theoretical foundation and accumulation of real world experience of UB students pave the road for their future success.\nLearn more about our Biostatistics PhD program",

        "raw_content": "moving, Patti Smith, and impending homelessness\nAll day yesterday, I and 6 other people helped Adrienne move out of her old place and into her new one. She has more random stuff than anyone else I know... boxes and cabinets and drawers and containers all filled with strange and beautiful things which I don't even know the names of, but which I lump under the broad category \"art supplies\". It took about 6 truckloads to get most of her stuff moved over. After 8 hours of work, we called it quits and decided to leave the rest for another time!\nAfter such a day, I normally would have done nothing other than go home and fall asleep, however the seductive lure of Patti Smith's soothing and uplifting voice was too much to keep me away from the Catalyst last night. I'd been waiting to see her for months, but I forgot until a couple days ago that it was coming up so soon. Anyway, it goes without saying that she was unbelievable live. My only complaint was that the crowd could have been a lot more into it. She certainly didn't hold anything back, being the sexiest and most energetic and angst-filled 58-year-old girl in the world! One fun thing she said between songs included: \"Yesterday was H.P. Lovecraft's birthday. He's done celebrating, but I'm not! This one goes out to mr. howard phllips lovecraft\". As well as several heated rants about Iraq and the crappy way we've been handling global politics.\nYesterday I also got my official notice that we're being kicked out of our house. Not for anything we've done, we were apparently \"the best tenants she's ever had.\" It's just being sold for $750,000 to someone willing to pay the price. It's been a good house to us, but it doesn't seem fair that it will be going into the hands of a family who can't possibly use it as it was meant to be used (as a party-central bachelar pad). We plan to throw one last shindig before our 30 days is up so as not to go gently into the night. And in the meantime I've invited Adrienne over today to hop in the hot-tub so we can get fair use out of that before it's gone as well. In a month, it looks as though homelessness is my destiny unless I can scrounge up a place to move to real quick.\nCurrent Music:Patti Smith - Gloria",

        "title": "Investing Habits To Shake | Sprout@Beanstox",
        "raw_content": "Investing Habits To Shake\nLike most activities, it is possible, and perhaps even likely, that you will develop some bad habits while you progress through your journey as an investor. In fact, some bad habits are formed and undermine your portfolio without you even realizing it. As result, it is important to always make informed decisions and pay attention to details even when they seem small. Furthermore, when breaking bad habits, it is crucial to first identify them and recognize which are most significantly hurting your own investment strategy. To get you started, here are a few common bad habits that could be extremely beneficial for you to shake:\nForgetting to Stick to the Big Picture:\nIf the main objective of your investment strategy is to build and store wealth, one of the most necessary traits to have is great patience. Moreover, it is often more financially beneficial to consider results throughout a significant period rather than just with regard to a stock\u2019s (or fund\u2019s) most recent performance. This is because even stocks that have been recognized among the \u201cbest buys\u201d ever have experienced volatility in the short-term. For reference, top investors like Warren Buffet tend to promote a \u201cbuy and hold\u201d approach rather than a \u201cshort-term trading\u201d approach. This is because they recognize that no investment will be perfect, but sticking to a well-informed choice might ensure that the investor does not miss out on returns over time while they jump from stock to stock. In summation, if you only focus on the short-term and lose sight of the big picture, you could end up diminishing your returns in the end.\nInvesting Based On Emotional Attachments:\nWe have discussed strategic and data-driven stock picking in multiple articles but its importance cannot be stressed enough. Although it is a relatively straightforward concept to understand, many investors struggle with making the best decisions for their portfolios because of emotional attachments to particular investments. For instance, an investor might heavily weight their portfolio with shares of their favorite tech company because they have developed a sense of loyalty from using its products. Further, this investor might be relying too heavily on their emotions rather than making the investment because it fits the data-driven strategy they had developed. Ultimately, in this scenario, If the company were to fall into a significant dip or crash the investor could take a huge financial hit \u2014 without having data to support and justify their original investment decision.\nNeglecting a Portfolio\u2019s Allocation for Lengthy Periods of Time:\nSince many investors have the goal of building and storing wealth over time, some tend to fall into the bad habit of buying the neglecting their assets. By this, I mean that some investors make their initial desired investments, but then let their portfolio sit dormant for months or years without re-assessing their assets. While it is possible to make a profit this way, you might want to consider actively rebalancing your assets instead. One possible way to do this would be to plan a regular (or semi-regular) rebalancing schedule in order to ensure that you have the right asset mix to meet your goals. Maintaining the same stocks, bonds, or ETFs with the same allocation for extended periods of time can be profitable, but it also leaves more room for potential hurdles in meeting your goals along the way. Remember, the markets are constantly changing so it might be smart to consider having your portfolio change with it \u2014 in some instances.\nFor many people, investing is a perfect example of something that is simple, but not easy. Similarly, breaking bad habits in general is not usually a simple thing to do. In fact, terminating bad investment habits tends to take a considerable about of time, attention, and patience. However, those investors who are willing to put in the effort necessary to adapt good habits do tend to feel like their commitment was worth it. Conversely, repeating negative patterns often leads to feelings of frustration and sorrow. Fortunately, though, with enough dedication towards doing things the right way, investors can learn to avoid bad habits and realize great financial success. That it one of the beautiful things about investing, habits can be developed, learned, corrected, and re-learned throughout one\u2019s journey in order to maximize their potential!",

        "raw_content": "Home / Communications / News / \u2018Gritty\u2019 Kids Vote More: What the Research Shows About How Schools Build Citizens\nBy Kevin Mahnken\nThis is the latest article in The 74\u2019s ongoing \u2018Big Picture\u2019 series, bringing American education into sharper focus through new research and data.\n\u201cGritty\u201d students have the makings of great citizens, according to new research published in the British Journal of Political Science. In a survey of North Carolina middle and high schoolers, kids who showed signs of tenacity and self-belief also described themselves as being more involved in their schools and communities, and they were more likely to say they intended to vote.\nFollowing a midterm election cycle in which less than half of all eligible voters cast a ballot \u2014 a paltry number that nevertheless represents a 50-year high \u2014 the results suggest that schools have the power to shift more students toward energetic democratic participation.\nPublished in October, the study was originally conducted in 2015 and 2016 by Christina Gibson-Davis and D. Sunshine Hillygus, professors of public policy at Duke, and Brigham Young University political scientist John Holbein. The researchers partnered with the Wake County Public School System, the largest school district in North Carolina, to administer a wide-ranging survey to tens of thousands students in grades five, eight, and nine.\nThe survey asked students to rate themselves on measures of \u201cgrit\u201d \u2014 the vaunted non-cognitive trait that helps people work toward long-term goals in the face of obstacles. Popularized by social scientist Angela Duckworth in a best-selling book of the same name, grit is often described as a mix of skills and attitudes that often predict individual success. These include self-efficacy (the belief that you have the ability to meet your goals), systematic thinking (the ability to plan around setbacks), and effortfulness (the willingness to work hard over long periods).\nThe concept has proved influential, and Duckworth, who was awarded a prestigious MacArthur Fellowship in 2013, now leads her own organization to research and promote the importance of character building inside and outside the classroom. But other academics have attacked the grit craze, claiming its emphasis on diligence and toil unfairly assumes that underperforming students (often poor and minority children facing a host of learning challenges) simply aren\u2019t trying hard enough.\nTo assess their respective levels of grit, the Wake County students were asked to agree or disagree with a set of statements relating to their attention and work ethic (\u201cI am a hard worker\u201d; \u201cI finish whatever I begin\u201d; \u201cSetbacks don\u2019t discourage me\u201d).\nNext, they were asked whether they participated in volunteer work and whether they intended to vote when they were old enough. The survey also quizzed respondents on attitudes about school and their involvement in school activities \u2014 whether they enjoyed talking with teachers and fellow students, whether they worked to meet their teachers\u2019 expectations, and whether they believed that classroom learning was important to their future goals.\nIn virtually all measures of school and civic engagement, kids who thought of themselves as gritty rated higher. According to administrative data, they were less likely to accrue unexcused absences and tardinesses. They were also more likely to say that they volunteered in their community, more likely to express belief in their political efficacy, and more likely to say that they intended to vote when they grow older. In short, gritty students generally saw themselves as more determined and effective future citizens.\nSurvey responses like these are a far cry from the kind of experimental data that social scientists typically use to infer connections between psychological makeup and behavioral tendencies. But in an interview with The 74, co-author John Holbein said that the beliefs expressed in this survey offer a promising window into student behavior and self-conceptions.\n\u201cWe know that not everyone who says that they intend to vote will turn out to vote,\u201d he acknowledged. \u201cBut there is a strong correlation between individual intention to vote and whether they vote later on. That\u2019s the best we can do right now, and it\u2019s pointing us in the direction of there being long-term effects.\u201d\nHolbein said that studies of political socialization (i.e., how people develop political ideas and attitudes) have ignored childhood and adolescence in favor of a focus on older civic actors. Political scientists have mostly concentrated on adulthood, when people begin voting, buying homes, and having kids of their own, he said. By contrast, psychologists and education researchers have searched for the roots of most adult behaviors, from pregnancies to workforce participation, in the early developmental phases.\nHolbein argues that democratic tendencies are seeded during the K-12 years, when students begin to learn about their relationships to fellow citizens and democratic institutions through the proxies of teachers and classmates. Research has shown that involvement in sports teams, student clubs, and volunteer efforts \u2014 even those with no ideological alignment \u2014 is predictive of political involvement in the years after high school.\n\u201cThis is sort of like a practice run for kids. They\u2019re not joining unions or political parties at this stage of their lives, but they\u2019re getting the dry-run version of that. Maybe they\u2019re joining the Beta Club, or student government, or some other social association that \u2026 is helping socialize them to habits and norms and skills they\u2019ll need to engage later on in life. These are like baby forms of civic engagement that mirror later forms.\u201d\nAnd to the degree that civic engagement is wrapped up in grit, which experts believe can be taught to students from a young age, these studies introduce the tantalizing possibility that schools can begin preparing kids for the responsibilities of citizenship from kindergarten onward.\nIn a study Holbein published last year, he traced the voting records of disadvantaged students who were exposed to a program known as Fast Track, which specifically cultivated non-cognitive skills like grit, problem-solving, and emotional regulation. By their 20s, those students were between 7 and 9 percentage points more likely to vote. Fast Track didn\u2019t yield particularly impressive achievement gains, but in a way, that made the civic results more noteworthy: Children became more active citizens even without seeing major academic benefits.\nHolbein and his co-authors intend to track the Wake County survey data to determine whether the grittiest kids develop into the most involved citizens. In the meantime, he says, researchers should look to childhood to chart the origins of democratic thought and action.\n\u201cWhat my research is suggesting is that a lot of the general skills and attributes that one develops earlier in life might not [immediately] manifest themselves \u2014 teenagers don\u2019t generally have the opportunity to vote \u2014 but these things do become active when people come of age and have a chance to have their voices heard in politics.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "CHICAGO (CBS/CNN) \u2014 The Cook Country Forest preserve has placed a police officer on desk duty after a video showed the officer standing by as a man harassed a woman for wearing a shirt with the Puerto Rican flag.\n\u201cYou\u2019re not American, if you were American you wouldn\u2019t wear that. You know that right?\u201d says the man, who appears to be intoxicated. The video, posted on Facebook, has been viewed more than 1.2 million times.\nCook County Board Chairman Toni Preckwinkle said today that she will be speaking with Puerto Rico\u2019s governor about the incident.\n\u201cThe incident \u2026 is completely unacceptable,\u201d Preckwinkle said. \u201cI apologize to the young woman who had this terrible experience. I am troubled by the response of the initial officer on the scene.\u201d\nShe said she learned of the incident last night.\nMia Irizarry says she was trying to celebrate her 24th birthday last month when the man approached her asking her why she was wearing the sleeveless Puerto Rico flag shirt, which also had \u201cPuerto Rico\u201d written below the V neckline.\nFor several minutes the man berates Irizarry and at one point stands a few inches from her. In the background, a police officer is standing outside the park pavilion.\nOn Monday, the Forest Preserve tweeted that it was aware of the June 14 incident at an undisclosed park location and video.\nAll people are welcome in the Forest Preserves of Cook County and no one should feel unsafe while visiting our preserves.\n\u2014 Forest Preserves (@FPDCC) July 9, 2018\nIn the footage, the man can be seen approaching Irizarry saying: \u201cYou should not be wearing that in the United States of America.\u201d He gets closer to her and asks \u201cAre you a citizen? Are you a United States citizen?\u201d\nIrizarry can be heard saying that Puerto Rico is part of the United States and the man approaches her multiple times.\nIrizarry asks a park police officer to help, saying \u201cI am renting this area and he\u2019s harassing me about the shirt that I\u2019m wearing.\u201d\nLater she says: \u201cOfficer, I feel entirely uncomfortable, can you remove \u2026 please officer\u201d as the officer is seen walking away from her.\nThen she says: \u201cOfficer, I\u2019m renting, I paid for a permit for this area. I do not feel comfortable with him here, is there anything you can do? \u201d\nThe officer can then be seen talking to the man who gesticulates back and tells him to \u201cshut the f*** up.\u201d\nLater, more police arrive and Irizarry says she still doesn\u2019t feel safe. The man resumes his abuse, saying: \u201cYou\u2019re not American, if you were American you wouldn\u2019t wear that. You know that right?\u201d\nThe female officer asked to see the man\u2019s ID and can be heard telling him that he\u2019s intoxicated to which he replies \u201cwell that\u2019s your judgment.\u201d She explains that Irizarry has a permit and she warns him that he could be arrested \u201cfor not being compliant.\u201d\n\u201cYou don\u2019t come here harassing people,\u201d the officer continues. \u201cPeople have just as much right to be here as you and when you\u2019re drunk, you don\u2019t belong here.\u201d\nThe female officer then speaks with Irizarry who gives her version of the incident and the officer explains that they were called to the area after a report that a man was choking a woman.\nEventually the first officer on the scene takes notes of Irizarry\u2019s account of the incident and says that he was at the scene due to the separate incident, noting that she was not being attacked though acknowledging she felt threatened.\nIrizarry can be heard explaining to the officer that the incident began when they had asked the group the man was in if they could move as they had a permit for the area. She said the group politely complied but her Puerto Rico shirt appeared to act as a trigger to the man.\nPuerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello reacted to the video on Twitter.\nThe United States of America is a nation that was built and thrives on diversity. We cannot allow those who do not understand America\u2019s greatness to terrorize people because of their background. This is not the America we all believe in.",

It is also great for restoring proper nerve function to the rest of your body that you don\u2019t think about. When the nerves that supply your organs, like the stomach, heart and lungs are irritated, these organs cease to function at their optimal level.

        "title": "Music Ministry - St. Thomas More - Austin, TX",
        "raw_content": "Our Recruiting Message: We need musicians! We ALWAYS need musicians!\nIf you have a desire to sing or play at even just ONE Mass, email any of our Music Directors. Ren directs the 5pm Saturday and 9am and 10:45am Sunday Masses, and can be reached at ren@stmaustin.org. Karen directs the 12:30pm and Lift Teen Masses on Sunday afternoons and can be reached at Karen@stmaustin.org. We can work with you to get you involved! Please be aware that there are two ensembles that require an audition: the A Cappella Choir and the Life Teen Band.\nIf you just want to see what the music ministry is doing, you can join our email list to get a weekly update on upcoming rehearsals and events. We consider you a part of our ministry if you just READ our emails!!! It&apos;s a good way to keep connected with a fun community and perhaps help you find a way of sharing your gifts with the parish community of St. Thomas More.\nThe Music Ministry enhances and supports the Liturgy of the St. Thomas More community. We are composed of many musicians of different backgrounds. Some of us have studied music, some of us are just starting, but we all come together to sing, play, and praise God through music. We try to sing with joy!\nThere are three main parts of the Music Ministry:\nChoirs and ensembles for Saturday and Sunday Masses\nSeasonal Choirs for Christmas Eve, Triduum (Holy Week and Easter), and Pentecost\nChoirs and ensembles for special services\nThe Saturday 5 p.m. Group sings for the 5:00 p.m. Saturday Mass, and rehearses on Saturday afternoons.\nThe STM Choir sings at either the 9:00 a.m. or 10:45 a.m. Mass on the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Sundays of the month and rehearses weekly on Tuesday Evenings from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. in the Music Room.\nThe Contemporary Group sings at the 12:30 p.m. Mass and rehearses weekly on Wednesday Evenings in the Church.\nThe Life Teen Band plays at the 5:00 p.m. Sunday Mass. Vocalists rehearse weekly on Wednesday evenings, and the band as a whole rehearses weekly on Sunday afternoons in the Church.\nThe A Cappella Choir sings on the Third Sunday of each month at both the 9:00 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. Masses. Due to the difficult nature of the music that this group sings, members are selected through auditions. The repertoire ranges from Latin motets by Byrd, Arcadelt and Victoria through more modern choral composers such as Rachmaninov, Bruckner, Vaughn Williams, Stanford, Lauridsen and others. This group rehearses from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. in the Music Room on Tuesday evenings.\nThe Youth Choir, 8 to 12 years old, sings at the Mass for Children on the 2nd Sunday of the month at 9am. We also will sing at 10:45am from time to time. This group rehearses on Wednesday afternoons at 5:30 p.m. We try to match the RE schedule as much as possible, so generally our season starts in September and ends in late April or May. In 2018 our first rehearsal will be on Wednesday, September 26 at 5:30pm in the Music Room, opposite the main RE office in the RE building.\nSeasonal Choirs\nThe Christmas Choir prepares for the Christmas Eve concert and Midnight Mass. Rehearsals begin just before Advent. Along with many Christmas favorites, we try to do a master work such as the Christmas Gospel portion of the Messiah or a portion of a Bach Cantata.\nThe Triduum Choir prepares for Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Vigil. Rehearsals begin shortly before Lent begins. Again, we attempt some challenging music. In the past we&apos;ve done a portion of Vivaldi&apos;s Gloria with this choir as well as Worthy Is the Lamb and the Great Amen from the conclusion of Handel&apos;s Messiah.\nThe Pentecost Choir prepares for Pentecost, and rehearses during the latter half of the Easter Season.\nThe St. Cecilia Choir, for those from 6 to 7 years old, is a seasonal choir that prepares for Christmas and Easter. Rehearsals (4-5 of them for each season) start in Advent and in Lent on Wednesday afternoons at 5:30 p.m.\nWe also have many instrumentalists involved with our music. We put together Orchestras for Christmas, Easter and Pentecost, and different instruments play throughout the year.\nSpecial Services Choirs\nThe Funeral Choir sings for funerals as they occur. In general our Funerals are during the week at 10am or 1pm. Please email Ren to be placed on the email list for this choir.\nI invite any to come and join us. We have fun, we make music, and we praise God. It&apos;s a good combination! Please contact us!",

        "raw_content": "Since 1950, September is the worst performing month of the year for DJIA, S&P 500, NASDAQ (since 1971), Russell 1000, and Russell 2000 (since 1979). September was creamed four years straight from 1999-2002 after four solid years from 1995-1998 during the dot.com bubble madness. Bullish election-year forces do little to improve on September\u2019s poor overall performance over the same timeframe. September\u2019s performance does improve slightly in election years, but it is still negative nearly across the board. Only the Russell 1000 and Russell 2000 have been able to escape negative territory and post modest 0.2% and 0.7% average gains respectively in the last nine election year Septembers.\nSeptember Triple Witching week is generally bullish with S&P 500 advancing nearly twice as many times as declining since 1990, but is has suffered some large losses. DJIA, S&P 500, Russell 1000 and 2000 recorded gains on Monday of expiration week for three straight years 2009-2011. NASDAQ has been down four straight years since. Triple-Witching Friday has been firm the past twelve years with every index advancing at least eight times. The week after Triple Witching has been brutal, down 22 of the last 26, averaging an S&P 500 loss of 1.1%.

We all remember what it was like to be a child in a crowded art museum. It was hard to see, let alone appreciate the art. It got tiring. And there was so much else to look at! That\u2019s the lesson of this ingeniously simple yet profound book about art. It is everywhere\u2014from another visitor\u2019s elaborate tattoos to the way the sun makes patterns of light on the floor. While other visitors are busy trying to find their way through the museum\u2019s galleries, or fighting for room to view a masterpiece, our hero examines the gallery upside down from a bench, plays with his shadow, and makes friends with the custodian. With a wink and a nod to serious museum-goers everywhere, Joanne Liu\u2019s whimsical illustrations remind us that sometimes the best kind of art is the kind you make yourself.\nPrestel Junior, 2017",

        "raw_content": "No Time To Waste w/ Spring Restoration\nTimes Editorial: No time to waste in springs\u2019 restoration\nThe legislative session is nearly half-finished and still there is no serious movement toward repairing Florida\u2019s springs. With $4 billion in new revenue from a rebounding economy, there is enough money for lawmakers to make a serious down payment on restoration that is critical to the environment, public health and the economy.\nFlorida\u2019s gin-clear springs once attracted presidents, movie stars and hordes of visitors, helping put the Sunshine State on the map and fashioning the state\u2019s modern tourist economy. But many springs are dry shadows of their former selves, choked with nutrient pollution, salt and other byproducts of reckless growth and overpumping. Runoff from leaky septic tanks, cattle pastures and farms and lawns has caused many of the state\u2019s 1,000 springs to become smothered in toxic algae blooms. Compounding the damage, the water in many springs no longer boils up like a fountain, as it had for centuries. The decrease in water flow and quality damages business and property, threatens the drinking water supply and puts Florida at greater risk of sinkhole activity.\nA state-sponsored effort to save the springs, launched 12 years ago by then-Gov. Jeb Bush, ended in 2011 under Gov. Rick Scott. The Bush program spent $25 million on springs-related work, more than double what Scott has spent over the past two years. Scott\u2019s budget contains $6 million for springs restoration over the next year. That is far short of the $122 million price tag that the state\u2019s five water management districts put on an initial work plan for springs recovery. The state may not be able to catch up on springs restoration overnight, but it can make a meaningful down payment.",

Because the tide went out, and its been a very low and high tide as we just had a full moon, the ice refroze into all kinds of strange shapes, i woke up at 3 a.m. to the banging and clunking of the ice flows, hitting Curtsy at Starboard and creeping between the boat and the dock at Portside. Right now it is 1.30 pm, and the ice is melting, it is definitely becoming warmer. One of the diving boats from Rockfish divers, Alysa at the helm, her husband Tyler at the bow, managed to get turned around in the ice, they are docked close to the shore , in front of the Lodge, sitting in solid ice, Tyler managed to break it all apart around the boat, i took a small video of them leaving the bay, the dog, near the end of the video is Oscar, who had second thoughts about walking the dock!!!

After years of travelling the country visiting breweries, home brewing, and working in the beer industry, brewmaster and co-founder Larry Goldstein decided to open up a brewery. The idea and name, Spider Bite Beer Company, was conceived back in 2008, along with co-founder and friend Anthony LiCausi, after a summer of too many bug bites. Make sure to try some of their award winning IPA's and stouts.\nThe next stop on this tour is a short ride away. Squarehead Brewing Company was founded by father-son duo, Dave and Brad Jordan. They officially opened their tasting room in October of 2018, but this brewery has been over five years in the making. After years of homebrewing and then purchasing their 1,400 square foot property in 2013, they were hit with a series of delays. Fast foward five years and they were relieved to open their tasting room doors to the public. Enjoy a flight of some of their 20 different beers that they have on tap.\nThe next stop on this tour is just another short ride away. 1940's Brewing Company is deeply rooted in brewing tradition. Owner Charles Becker chose the name to pay homage to his father, who graduated the Brewing Academy in the year 1940 before beginning his long career of brewing. With a family legacy of brewing and dedication to quality beer, 1940's Brewing Company got its start in 2014. Try a flight or grab a pint of their growing arsenal of beer.\nAfter a visit to all 3 breweries, we'll bring your group to Patchogue for a stop at bar/restaurant of your choice.\n*PRICING IS DETERMINED BY SIZE OF YOUR GROUP AND PICK UP LOCATION.

It is this understanding that helps bring out the best in students, and allows them to receive the highest grades.\nLaw is known to be inaccessible and hard to understand, partly due to the terms that are used to construct it.

It is considered an unlucky day in Western superstition. The number 13 itself is considered unlucky in various aspects of culture. The fear of number 13 even has a scientific name: triskaidekaphobia.\nThe superstition surrounding this day likely came from the Middle Ages, originating from the story of Jesus\u2019 last supper and crucifixion in which there were 13 individuals present in the Upper Room on the 13th of Nisan or Maundy Thursday, the night before his death on Good Friday.\nIn culture, the words luck and lucky are used in several ways. In everyday language, luck typically means good luck. However, luck can refer to either good luck or bad luck.\nLuck can be viewed as a superstition. This is typified by the belief that future good or bad luck can be influenced by things like actions that one might do deliberately or accidentally, or that happen near you, or even by abstract associations \u2013 like the number 13.\nI hope your Friday the 13th is a day of good luck and you find all the information you are seeking.\nfindabilityhumorreferencesearch",

        "raw_content": "Facebook Begins Testing Facebook Lite, A Faster Simpler Version Of The Service\nIt looks like Facebook has tonight turned on a feature called \u201cFacebook Lite\u201d for some users to test out. We\u2019re getting bombarded by tips about it, and some of us are seeing it as well. Unfortunately, it appears that it may not be fully ready for prime time yet, but we have more information and what looks to be a screenshot below, so keep reading.\n[Update: See Facebook\u2019s response at the bottom, the test was mistakenly rolled out to more users than intended tonight.]\nSo what is it? Well, it looks to be exactly what it says it is, a lighter version of Facebook. The beta tester message reads:\nThe URL for the feature is http://lite.facebook.com. So far, users are reporting not seeing much different about the site, if anything.\nYou\u2019ll recall that MySpace launched a \u201clite\u201d version for its profiles in April.\nUpdate: Okay, while it seems that most of the users who are getting this message now are not seeing much different, earlier this week, it looks like a very select few may have gotten a sneak peak at Facebook Lite . According to their tweets on it, it appears to be a more Twitter -like. One user notes that it, \u201clooks like a simplified version of twitter with comments enabled. On 2nd thought, it looks like simplified FriendFeed.\u201d\nThat is of course very interesting since Facebook just bought FriendFeed for around $50 million yesterday.\nUpdate 2: We just found a screenshot of what this apparently looks like. Again, this was taken a few days ago.\nUpdate 3: FriendFeed co-founder Paul Buchheit shared our story on FriendFeed, so naturally I asked if he knew about this beforehand. \u201cSomeone mentioned it earlier today. It sounds very promising,\u201d he says.\nUpdate 4: And here\u2019s Facebook\u2019s official response:\nWhoops, looks like someone at Facebook jumped the gun on this new feature. Too bad, looks like most of us will have to wait awhile to try it out.\nUpdate 5: And here\u2019s what Facebook Lite is really all about.\nUpdate 6: And here are some more pictures of Facebook Lite.\nWe are updating this.",

But, as we steamroll our way through 2015; it\u2019s worth noting that you need to be on top of your game when it comes to marketing. Mobile, in particular, is not a flash in the pan. It\u2019s not a myth. It\u2019s something that needs to be considered carefully for those that are in the business world.\nEvery business needs to realise the potential of mobile. Let\u2019s face it; the world isn\u2019t going to get less mobile anytime soon.\nLet\u2019s take a look at some statistics.\n1.4 billion Smartphone\u2019s are used around the world.\nThe average American spends 2 hours per day on their phone and tablet\n1 in 4 online searches is now done on a device\nSo, when you consider this, can you truly afford to ignore mobile marketing?\nWe thought not.\nHere are some truths that your marketer may not have told you about.\nLobo Studio Hamburg\nIt\u2019s Here for Good\nWhether you like the age of technology or not, mobile marketing is going nowhere. It\u2019s here to stay and it\u2019s here for good. Technology is only going to become more advanced and increasingly portable. So, you need to ensure that your business is upping its mobile strategy.\nOptimisation on Mobile is Important\nOptimisation of your primary site is vital. Don\u2019t be fooled into thinking that your existing site is ready to go on a mobile device. This is not the case. You need to ensure that you are engaging with responsive design to make sure that you are ahead of the curve. Surprisingly, a lot of businesses are failing to keep up to date with responsive web. Ensure that you have an optimised website that engages with your target audience. This ensures that they come back time and time again. All businesses need to make responsive and optimised sites a matter of importance for the long term. It\u2019s just millennial that want this. Silver surfers are more prevalent than ever.\nMobile is Not Used on the Go\nYes, it\u2019s mobile. But, how many people use their phone or tablet to sit and surf the web from the comfort of their armchair? When people are searching in earnest for a company that they want to use, they\u2019re not doing this while they\u2019re walking down the street. So, you need to make sure that you have a website that is deemed fit for purpose to appeal to this kind of searcher.\nYour Business is Not Too Small For an App\nSMEs and startups can flourish from using apps. Apps are not just used in corporations and large scale companies. It\u2019s vital that you make sure that you are putting together an app-based marketing strategy. Of course, you don\u2019t have to. But, think about how apps are big business. Consumers love apps. But, it should be more than a condensed version of your primary website. It needs to be a unique selling point on its own. Here\u2019s a hint. Apps need to be used for engaging customers. This is the key to driving sales and leads.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Sport \u00bb Advani adds two world titles to his growing kitty in memorable 2018\nBy AuthorPTI | Published: 29th Dec 2018 11:29 am\nFile Photo of Pankaj Advani. Source: Internet\nNew Delhi: The legend of Pankaj Advani grew bigger and had no competition in 2018 when India\u2019s finest cueist completed a grand double by winning the world billiards crown in the point and time format, extending his tally to a staggering 21.\nThe 33-year-old kept churning out world titles, proving that his game was getting better with age and there was a long way to go before his hunger for trophies could be satiated.\nWhile Advani won the world championship in the point format for the third straight year in the edition that took place in Myanmar in November, he secured the time format trophy for the first time since 2015.\nAdvani, among the few who juggles smoothly between billiards and snooker, also lifted a major snooker trophy this year after he and Manan Chandra staged a dramatic recovery to beat Pakistan in the world team championship, which was held in Doha in March.\nThe duo was down 0-2 in the final before pulling off a sensational victory.\nThe Bengaluru-based cueist was expectedly pleased with his performance in another productive year.\n\u201cConsidering I didn\u2019t play in too many tournaments this year, 2018 was superb especially in billiards \u2013 winning the nationals, Asian and World (point as well as time format) \u2013 making it a clean sweep,\u201d Advani told PTI.\n\u201cIn snooker, lifting the World Team Cup along with Manan was special as it was my first major team trophy. And then the Asian Tour victory in China was a new addition to my trophy cabinet,\u201d he added.\nAn ardent fan of tennis great Roger Federer, Advani has no plans to retire and remains as motivated as ever.\n\u201cNext year there are going to be many events. However, my focus will initially be to qualify for the international tournaments in snooker. As usual, the main challenge will be to strike a healthy balance between billiards and snooker so that I give myself a chance to excel and hopefully win in both versions of cue sport,\u201d he said.\nAdvani also won the Asian billiards title for the seventh time, beating practice partner B Bhaskar in the final. He had gone into the tournament as the defending champion and ended up winning the trophy for the second year in a row.\nIn the same event, India\u2019s Amee Kamani won the Asian Women\u2019s Snooker title by blanking her Thai opponent Siripaporn Nuanthakhamjan.\nIn the overall tally of world championships, Advani won as many as eight billiards finals in the time format and six in the shorter version with half of them coming in the last three years. He is also a three-time world snooker champion and two-time winner of the six-red format.\nAfter bagging a grand billiards double in November, he was in no mood to stop as he ended the year with an unfinished break of 1092 to win the ECA Raman Nair Billiards in Bengaluru in December.\nIn his own words, it was a \u201cmagical way\u201d to end 2018.",

        "raw_content": "By \u0415\u0432\u0433\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0439 \u041a\u044a\u043d\u0435\u0432 -\nIf we want to evaluate the benefit of a new law or a change to an existing one, we have to know what it aims to do. In this case when a completely new law on concessions is proposed\u2013 we need to know what will change in terms of the private sector exploiting public ownership.\nIt\u2019s nothing out of the ordinary, of course. It is just the ratification of new European Directive on Concessions in 2014 which, like the Public Procurement Directive, we are obliged to transpose into national legislation. At the same time, like public procurements, this is a move towards a significant liberalisation in concessions, both in terms of the offering and the time periods, as well their scope and monitoring. From a positive point of view, this is a good thing. What could be better than attracting private capital into the construction of the public infrastructure and the offering of public services with, what we assume to be, better quality? At the end of the day, this is the aim of the European Commission to deal with the consequences of the economic and financial crisis \u2013 by implementing a series of measures (including the Junker Plan) to attract private capital into the public sector. In addition, the expanded range of objects up for concession opens up the possibilities for public-private partnerships. These could be prison management; the management of museums and sites of cultural and historical heritage, various types of social services provided by private companies. As the motives for the Law claim: it opens up the possibilities for concessions over newly built sites by private sector, and not only the existing infrastructure, as it had been up to now.\nThere are many problems with implementing these good intentions and aims in the new draft law (with its forthcoming first reading in Parliament). However, they have one feature in common: the capacity of the public partner in this public partnership to achieve success is desperately feeble. For this very reason, any liberalisation in Bulgarian conditions may be seen just like Dante\u2019s good intentions paving the path to Hell.\nThe primary meaning of the new law is not just to attract any old private capital, but private capital which will bring with it the expertise and experience of public private partnerships, in such a way that the tax payers will receive in return better quality and more accessible public services and infrastructure. Current experience in providing concessions, however, doesn\u2019t give much reason for hope. From the concessions register it can clearly be seen that the huge majority of more than 700 state and more than 1000 municipal concessions have been granted to local economic operators who don\u2019t have any prior proven experience (the most essential feature of a concessionaire according to the law) as operators of public services.\nForeign capital and investors with suitable experience, similar to those in the tenders and competitions for public procurement, have almost no access to the Bulgarian public resources. This isn\u2019t because they are forbidden from taking part, but because the procedural conditions and chosen contracting methods make their participation almost meaningless. Some of the more persistent of them realise this perhaps too late, but they give a clear sign to the international investment community about what to expect. The results are clear from the foreign investment statistics.\nLet\u2019s look, for example, at the concessions procedure for Sofia airport.\nThis is a particularly good example of the Ministry of Transport\u2019s contribution to economic science. The concessionaires are expected to make an advance payment of 600 million levs \u2013 given 100 million revenue and 5 million levs profit in 2015. In other words, the advance payment is six times greater than the expected revenue. Given that situation, it would take 120 years for the concessionaire just to earn back the advance payment from the profit earned. If they wanted to make the return on investments required in this sort of business, they would have to make a profit, not income, of about 100 million per annum. That is 20 times higher than current levels. We just have to guess what airport taxes and what other prices for airport services the concessionaire might demand at Sofia airport? To top it all, the burden of this advance payment as a criterion for assessment of the proposals is a whopping 55%, while the investment criterion (directly linked with the quality of services) is barely 15% in the tender documents. With such disadvantageous conditions for the investor, even in the framework of 35 years with payments to the state of about 1.2 billion, according to the Minister of Transport, with a current annual profit of 5 million levs which will be returned to the investor \u2013 we shall wait to see what hidden cherries this scheme will throw up for the potential concessionaire. If any appears.\nThus the liberalisation of the way in which concessions are granted will to an even greater extent increase the possibility for prior agreement with the future concessionaire. It also has be taken into account that with a new and expanded arsenal of methods, individual ministers and municipal mayors have become grantors of concessions.\nThe delegation of oversight functions to the current commissioning parties such as the Council of Ministers and the Municipal Councils is a sham, especially taking into account the expectations of the same political authorities and their eminent representatives. And not forgetting their own common interest in mutually overseeing each other. The first version of the draft of the new law even offered \u201ceternal\u201d concessions, i.e. without limit in time, which is nothing more than a gift of public property to former comrades and relations. It is quite clear that after paying for the investment, the concessionaire takes ownership of the difference between the real and normal profit from the corresponding type of public services. Fortunately, the sharp criticism of these eternal concessions appears to have led to their removal from the draft law.\nIn the same way as in public procurement, the root of the problem is in the process of concession granting, or to be more precise the possibility for prior agreement between the public sector commissioning party and the private sector concessionaire. This goes a long way to explain the almost ubiquitous preference for local private partners without any experience or the experience of a foreign partner in a consortium. So this leads to the same solution \u2013 the creation of a central authority to organise the granting of concessions, which is political and administratively independent of the specific commissioning party. This role might be assumed, perhaps, by the Agency for Privatisation and Post-Privatisation Control, on the condition that its management is obliged to report to parliament, and not to the executive, and that its activities are completely transparent and subject to public control.\nEvgeni Kanev is Doctor of Economic and managing partner of Maconis investment consulting company.\nHe was previously Europe director for US Tello Corporation and director of Corporate Finance in the BIG 4 consultancy companies.

        "title": "Conventional Wisdom \"Don't Buy a Dividend\" Is Wrong",
        "raw_content": "Conventional Wisdom \"Don\u2019t Buy a Dividend\" Is Wrong\nI mentioned this last year in my post 3 Reminders About Year-End Mutual Fund Distributions. I see the conventional wisdom \u201cdon\u2019t buy a distribution\u201d is still going strong. Vanguard reiterated this conventional wisdom in its blog post The record date: Not a tune you can dance to in early December.\nBut the conventional wisdom is wrong. I patiently waited until I can have a real life example.\nAfter Vanguard published the blog post, Ella posted on the Bogleheads investment forum and asked if she should invest in two ETFs right away or wait until the ex-dividend date.\nOK to buy an ETF just before the dividend?\nThe ex-dividend date is the date when the investor will not receive the dividend. Not receiving the dividend means not paying the tax on the dividend now but paying a higher capital gains tax in the future. In effect, the tax is deferred, but not avoided.\nElla got the conventional wisdom answer from the forum participants: don\u2019t buy a distribution; wait until the ex-dividend date. One of the replies came from Taylor Larimore. Taylor is a respected forum leader and the lead author of two Bogleheads books. On December 10, Ella decided to wait.\nThe two ETFs Ella asked about were Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (ticker VTI) and Vanguard Europe Pacific ETF (ticker VEA).\nOn December 10, VTI traded between a low of $55.61 and a high of $55.97 a share. Let\u2019s take an average and call it $55.79. The ex-dividend date for VTI is December 22. On that day, VTI traded between $56.30 and $56.59. Let\u2019s take an average and call it $56.45.\nIf Ella bought VTI on Dec. 10, for every $10,000 she could have bought $10,000 / $55.79 = 179 shares. Those 179 shares were worth $56.45 * 179 = $10,105 on Dec. 22. In addition, she would also receive a dividend of $0.358 per share. That\u2019s $0.358 * 179 = $64 in dividends. Together with a leftover $13 from the share purchase, Ella would have $10,182 in shares and cash if she bought on Dec. 10, versus $10,000 if she bought on Dec. 22.\nThe conventional wisdom market timing advice cost Ella $182 for the sake of deferring tax on the $64 dividend, which comes out to $10 at 15% qualified dividend tax rate. Giving up $182 to defer $10 is penny wise pound foolish.\nThe story on VEA is a little better. VEA\u2019s ex-dividend date was December 24. Doing the same math shows Ella was worse off by $98 for the sake of deferring $34 tax.\nAlthough the story \u201cdon\u2019t buy a distribution\u201d sounds credible, its base assumption \u201cignoring market appreciation/depreciation\u201d is false. The market appreciation/depreciation is many times the size of the tax effect on distributions. It can\u2019t be ignored. Worrying about the tax effect while ignoring the market movement is missing the forest for the tree leaves.\nOf course someone can argue the market could\u2019ve gone the other way and Ella would be better off waiting. But that\u2019s precisely my point. Whether some one is better off waiting is determined by the market movements, not by buying before or after the ex-dividend date. Trying to be clever about the distribution and the ex-dividend date is unproductive in the face of market movements.\nIf an investor is going to time the market on the purchases, he/she should time on market movements, not on distributions and ex-dividend dates, because the former\u2019s effect is a magnitude larger. Of course we all know one shouldn\u2019t time the market. Therefore, don\u2019t worry about the distributions and ex-dividend dates when their effect is just a tiny blip overwhelmed by daily volatility.\nThe last paragraph is self-contradictory, isn\u2019t it? I agree we should not try to time the market. Since the day to day volatility could go either way, the effect of waiting could be positive or negative, and is not predictable.. However the effect of \u201cbuying the dividend\u201d is always negative. Over the long term, the market volatility will cancel itself out but the tax drain on the dividend favors waiting till the x-dividend date.\nOver the long term, the market volatility will not cancel itself out because the market tends to go up more often than not. Waiting is timing the market.\n@TFB \u2013 Yes that is true, assuming a longer time frame. I agree, waiting 6 months to buy ex-dividend is not a good idea, because as you say, over the long haul the market tends to go up. On the other hand, waiting \u201ca few days\u201d to buy ex-dividend is not timing the market, it\u2019s just good tax practice. Over a very short period (day-to-day) the market is quite \u201crandom\u201d or unpredictable.\nI\u2019m inclined to agree with waiting until an ex-dividend date. It\u2019s a prudent strategy to reduce known costs (taxes, in this case).\nBut I also agree that the impact is probably pretty small. It would take a person to invest huge chunks of cash right before the dividend every year for thirty years to have any significant impact (I don\u2019t know for sure, I didn\u2019t do the math).\nAt the very least there should be a big warning that goes with this conventional wisdom: the benefit is really small while there\u2019s a substantial risk you may miss a gain several times the size of your expected tax savings. If Ella had understood she could\u2019ve given up $182 in order to defer $10, at least she would be making an informed decision. The Vanguard article and the Bogleheads forum participants did not warn her about this risk.\nThis is a good point to be made aware of, illustrated well with an example, but more should be said on how long before ex-dividend or what threshold of dividend yield matters. More often than not, you are doing a disservice to yourself buying before distribution and paying tax on the payout because typically the payout leads to a lower cost basis. The higher the dividend and closer to ex-dividend, the more likely the conventional wisdom is to be correct.\nHeck, all my Vanguard ETF dividends got wiped out in the last half-hour of trading today anyway. Win some, lose some, some get rained out.\nThank goodness for my CDs. Mr. Market can\u2019t wipe out my cash as he can evaporate everything else. Before you pooh-pooh CDs (and I admit rates are pathetic these days), 5 year CDs are nudging up towards 4% again. They are lagging the marked increase in the ten-year Treasury over the past month (whoh, nelly, a 65 basis point increase), but they\u2019ll catch up (I hope).\nLadder, ladder, ladder.\n4% is sort of my personal Maginot line, at least in my ladder. I had to settle for a renewal of a State Farm CD at 3.17% a few months back and I almost barfed. Since then, it\u2019s gone down. While the ten-year has gone ballistic. Go figure.\nThis truly was the decade of fixed-income. With that, I can agree with Bill Gross of Pimco. I made so much money on my CDs I could almost puke.\nI am sorry but I seem tio be missing something here.\nWhat is the negative about getting a dividend? You have to pay tax on it, but you still make money, right? I am sure I am missing something big in this discussion. Any enlightenment will be greatly appreciated! \ud83d\ude42\nArvind \u2013 Read the Vanguard article linked in the first paragraph. Conventional wisdom says if the market does not move at all, you can buy shares at a lower price on or after the ex-dividend date.",

        "raw_content": "Home Be The Change Antiwar Peace Prize-Winning Obama Gets DoD\u2019s Highest Honor for Dropping 50K Bombs on...\nPeace Prize-Winning Obama Gets DoD\u2019s Highest Honor for Dropping 50K Bombs on Muslims in 2 Years\nU.S. President Barack Obama was given the Department of Defense Medal for Distinguished Public Service \u201cas a token of appreciation for his service as commander in chief\u201d at a farewell ceremony on January 4. The medal is the highest honorary award at the Department of Defense and is presented by the Secretary of Defense. However, critics have said the award is similar to an employee giving his boss a \u201cparticipation trophy\u201d for supervising.\nThe award comes days before a new report revealed President Obama authorized the United States military to drop more than 26,000 bombs in 7 countries during the 2016 calendar year, according to an estimate by the Council on Foreign Relations. More than 24,000 of those bombs were dropped in Iraq and Syria as part of Operation Inherent Resolve, which is the U.S. led coalition against the Islamic State. The report itself says the actual number of bombs dropped is signficantly higher because does not release complete info about the number of munitions used for each mission.\nThe total number of bombs dropped was at least 3,000 higher than 2015, and at least 22,000 of those were in Iraq and Syria against the Islamic State as well. The estimated total for the two years is almost 47,000 bombs dropped, which means the real total is likely over 50,000.\nThe U.S. coalition has been questioned by many for its execution of the campaign because the U.S. allowed Islamic State to continue oil smuggling operations for over one year after the bombing campaign started in September 2014, until a change of policy in November 2015. U.S. officials said they would not attack much of the oil trade infrastructure because of the threat to civilians, who the US claimed played a significant part in the smuggling. This policy changed without credible public explanation, and during the same week that Russia began targeting ISIS oil. The strikes became part of a race with the Russians who began bombing operations in Syria less than 2 months before that in September 2015.\nThe first reported strike by the U.S. on Islamic State oil trucks happened on November 16, which is at virtually the same time that the Russian airstrikes on ISIS oil were beginning. On November 18, Russia released video of the airstrikes from multiple days before, which likely means the U.S. airstrikes were after Russia began targeting ISIS oil. It is not proven which strikes were first, however Pentagon officials admit watching ISIS oil for over a year before they started bombing, but the first U.S. strike was likely within hours of the first Russian strike.\nU.S. officials have also been criticized by aid groups and western news media for not admitting to a credible number of civilian deaths caused by U.S. airstrikes in Syria. The official total civilian deaths admitted by U.S. officials was raised to 188 in the operation which is over 2 years old. Humanitarian groups and local sources say the number is much higher, with multiple estimates in the thousands.\nMore than 60 Syrian soldiers were killed and over 100 injured in U.S. airstrikes on Syrian military positions near Deir Ezzor in September 2016. The Syrian soldiers were fighting a critical battle against ISIS when the attacks happened, which the U.S. called a mistake. The attack lasted for almost one hour, involved multiple planes, and warnings from Russian officials were ignored.\nThe incident was part of a chain of events which led to the U.S. and Russia ending joint negotiations for a ceasefire in the Syrian proxy war in September. Russia accused U.S. officials of aiding the Islamic State in a United Nations Security Council meeting.\nIt has become common knowledge that U.S. officials watched Islamic State grow for 2 years before taking action, based on leaked intelligence reports. Audio of a conversation between Secretary of State John Kerry and Syrian oppposition groups shows that the U.S. was allowing Islamic State to grow as part of a strategy to weaken the Syrian government. Hillary Clinton and others also knew that Saudi Arabia and Qatar were funding Islamic State, according to leaked emails published by WikiLeaks.\nThe CFR report also showed that the U.S. dropped about at least 1,337 bombs in Afghanistan, where the U.S. is still fighting the Taliban after 15 years of war. Nearly 500 bombs were dropped in Libya as Islamic State fighters have moved into the country while other Al Qaeda groups have been fighting for control of the country since the fall of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.\nThere were 34 American bombs dropped in Yemen, where the U.S. is supporting Saudi Arabia\u2019s bombing campaign, despite continuous civilian deaths. Somalia was listed at 14, which is likely too low given the extended U.S. campaign against Al-Shabaab, an Al-Qaeda affiliated group.",

Close to twenty years ago when I was an undergraduate, I had set a goal to earn my MFA. I\u2019d planned to earn an MFA right after college. After getting my MFA, I\u2019d planned to embark on my life as an artist. But life doesn\u2019t always work according to plan. After earning my undergraduate degree, I earned a Master\u2019s degree in Public Administration. I later secured a job in government. I had figured I\u2019d put my cute little creative itch on the back burner and focus on my \u201creal\u201d career. A few years into working a nine-to-five, I was soul-restless and unhappy. I needed to pursue art and so I took up writing nine years ago. I\u2019ve been pursuing a writing career ever since. So why pursue a MFA with years of writing experience under my belt? I wanted to keep the promise I\u2019d made to myself all those years ago. Also, I\u2019ve been on the \u2026\nImage: Beate Meier It\u2019s our third annual notifications post!

Bowling \u2026\nI have never been a strong proponent of change. In fact, I have gone to extremes to not have to change. Nothing frightens me more. However, being a writer is one place that I must accept change because without it, I lessen my chances of writing a masterpiece. This isn\u2019t an easy thing to do especially after I\u2019ve poured my heart out on 50 pages of prose only to be suggested my mentor to scratch it all. In my past writing semester, this is exactly what happened. However, I didn\u2019t realize until later into the semester that mentor was struggling as much as I in the process. I felt supported. The project I\u2019m working on is a spiritual memoir. My original idea was to write my traumatic experiences growing up in a home that eventually created PTSD in me. Then I was going to explain how I found a God that I could relate to. The more we talked, the more my mentor felt that my dog\u2019s story was the story that needed to be \u2026\nThe Most Wonderful Time of the Year\u2026 To Work\nHappy Holidays, everyone! This season marks a lot of things, the observances of many religious and secular celebrations, cold weather and for many a break from work and school. For some this time of year is happy and filled with family, and friends. Unfortunately for others this is a tough and sad time. I sincerely wish for everyone that they are able to get whatever it is they need now and over the next few months as we brave the cold and dark inside and outside while we wait for the warm light of spring. One thing we all have in common is that a new year is coming. No matter what we thought of 2016 it is coming to a close for better or for worse. While it is important to take stock, celebrate, and have rest and relaxation it is equally if not more important to prepare for a brand new year. Folks are talking about resolutions, and while I\u2019m not a fan of the concept of \u2018New Year, New Me\u2019 for many \u2026",

        "raw_content": "\u201cIn the beginning God created beast and man so that both might live in friendship and share dominion over a world of peace. But in the fullness of time, evil men betrayed God\u2019s trust and in disobedience to His holy word waged bloody wars, not only against their own kind, but against the apes, whom they reduced to slavery. Then God in his wrath sent the world a saviour, miraculously born of two apes who descended on Earth from Earth\u2019s own future and man was afraid for both parent apes possessed the power of speech.\u201d \u2013 Lawgiver\nPierre Boulle was a French novelist known mostly for writing the novel The Bridge over the River Kwai (1951) upon which the similarly named 1957 film is based. In 1963, however, he published the science-fiction novel La plan\u00e8te des singes inspired by trips to the zoological gardens where Boulle was impressed by the human-like expression and gestures of the apes exhibited there. The story is presented as a message in a bottle written by a journalist from the year 2500 who claims his group of explorers discovered a planet remarkably similar to Earth orbiting the star Betelgeuse. The group surveys cities and roads before landing in the forest, where they are accosted by primitive humans while bathing, and are eventually captured by a group of gorillas out hunting. The journalist, named Ulysse M\u00e9rou, eventually learns to speak the simian language while his caretaker, a chimpanzee named Zira, learns to speak French. After being experimented on by the skeptical orangutan Dr. Zaius, Ulysse is allowed to present his case at a public symposium. Awed by his ability to speak their language, public opinion ousts Dr. Zaius and grants Ulysse freedom. Ulysse accompanies Zira and her fianc\u00e9 Cornelius to an archaeological expedition where they discover the remains of a civilization dominated by humans. Another ape\u2019s experiments demonstrate that human beings became lazy while apes became smart until the former descended into animalistic primitives and the latter became dominant and wise. The novel ends with Ulysse returning to Earth along with his new wife Nova, whom he teaches to speak, and his son Sirius who is just as healthy and intelligent as any Earth child. The twist ending is that upon arriving in Paris after his harrowing seven-year expedition Ulysse is greeted by a gorilla and the people who discovered his message in a bottle are revealed to have been apes all along. Jinn and Phyllis, the couple traveling through space who found the manuscript, refuse to believe there could ever have been intelligent, rational humans and relegate the account to little more than a practical joke or the musings of a madman.\nThe idea of a civilization of talking apes taps into many real-world ideas and concepts from science and culture. Ancient humans around the world have had contact with their primate cousins. In many creation myths, monkeys are believed to represent a failed attempt to create humans or a cursed transformation of them by deities. The word \u201cprimate\u201d itself derives from Latin and carries with it the notion, given by taxonomist Linnaeus, that they represent the first, or \u201chighest\u201d order of animal. The words \u201cape\u201d and \u201cmonkey\u201d are of less obvious origin but almost immediately gained derogatory meaning in reference to the perceived mimicry and foolishness of primates. As scientific research advanced and came up against taboos about human experimentation, primates represented ideal test subjects due to their resemblance to humans. Many of the ancient physician Galen\u2019s misconceptions about human anatomy are said to be derived from his dissections of barbary macaques.\nIn the late 19th Century, ideas about Evolution finally became accepted publicly and academically thanks to the work of naturalists, including Charles Darwin. As chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans became common sights in zoos, it became nearly impossible to deny the kinship between humans and so-called \u201cgreat apes\u201d. In response, a great deal of effort was spent distancing humans from their closest relatives. The long list of qualities that supposedly separated men from beasts found its way into the hands of bigots and racists, always eager to accuse their enemies of being less than human, and more than capable of twisting research and evidence to suit their needs. Primate research also became more advanced as philosophers, linguists, medical researchers, behavioral specialists, and psychologists turned to these creatures looking for answers about human nature and ways to improve our understanding of and control over the human mind and body.\nIn the 1960s, 70s, and 80s pioneering field research from women like Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey led to much of the world falling in love with these animals. Their image of sex and violence was replaced with on of love and tenderness as exemplified by the reappreciation of the closely-related pygmy chimpanzee or \u201cbonobo\u201d as peaceful, clever, and strikingly human. Animal rights activists petitioned against the captivity and abuse of all non-human animals, especially monkeys. Apes began to disappear from television, movies, and circuses. Serious cases were made for extending the rule and rights of law to our closest relatives on the grounds of their intelligence. Advancements in enrichment and conservation has made captivity in zoos and research laboratories more pleasant than it was in Darwin or Boulle\u2019s time but many species of primate remain threatened in the wild from habitat loss, poaching, and even hunting. Planet of the Apes seems originally intended to represent an intolerable reversal of the natural order but modern audiences, and indeed the works themselves, have a more sympathetic eye to the plight of these beasts, one perhaps fostered by the series itself, which begs us to question how we treat animals on our own planet, in our own time.\n\u201cI can\u2019t help thinking that somewhere in the universe there has to be something better than man. Has to be.\u201d \u2013 George Taylor\nScience-fiction has very little to do with the year in which it is set and everything to do with the year in which it was written. The original Planet of the Apes (1968) came out the same year as the Thule Accident in which a B-52 bomber carrying four hydrogen bombs crashed and burned in northern Greenland. The threat of nuclear annihilation would have been omnipresent and the senselessness of such an epic tragedy was on everyone\u2019s minds during the Cold War. The same year saw the Tet Offensive and the My Lai Massacre in the Vietnam War as the horrors of war were broadcast nightly to American televisions for the first time in history. 1968 was also marked by the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy. Protests against the Vietnam War and in support of the Civil Rights movement escalated worldwide. Just about the only thing that seemed to inspire hope and optimism was the Space Race, which culminated the following year in the first manned moon landing carried out by NASA\u2019s Apollo Program.\nThe film begins in space with odd lights meant to symbolize the unnamed space vessel\u2019s approach toward Orion\u2019s belt. Six months into an 18-month journey through space George Taylor (Charlton Heston) finds himself alone recording a final ship\u2019s log transmission while the rest of the crew rests in suspended animation. With him are the scientist Dodge (Jeff Burton) and the All-American astronaut Landon (Robert Gunner). They are on their way to a solar system whose star forms part of the constellation Orion. Due to the effects of relativity, over 700 years have passed on Earth since their launch date in 1972. As Taylor smokes his cigar and sits back in his chair he finds that being lonely in the eternity of space \u201csquashes the ego\u201d and wonders about all that\u2019s taken place on Earth in the meantime. \u201cDoes man, that marvel of the universe, that glorious paradox who sent me to the stars, still make war against his brother and let his neighbor\u2019s child starve?\u201d Still contemplating his fate, and the fate of the world, Taylor takes a last look at the sleeping face of the fourth member of the crew Stewart (Dianne Stanley) before entering his own sleep chamber.\nTwelve months later, from Taylor\u2019s perspective, and 1,305 years later, from Earth\u2019s perspective, the ship crash lands into a small body of water surrounded by lifeless desert cliffs. Stewart, dead for over a year, has turned into a mummified corpse and the rest of the crew barely makes it out alive as water bursts through the door. Dodge tosses out an inflatable raft, Landon grabs a few backpacks, and Taylor hopes he managed to send the signal to Earth that they\u2019ve landed. The three men make it ashore while watching their ship sink beneath the surface. With returning home not an option, Landon bemoans their fate while erecting a miniature U.S. flag to Taylor\u2019s amusement while Dodge analyzes the soil and begins surveying the area. With only enough food for a few days the crew heads in a direction randomly chosen by Taylor. It\u2019s 24 minutes before the first glimpses of other humans can be seen prowling around the edges of the frame and over half an hour before the first ape appears. In the meantime, the three astronauts do a lot of walking and climbing over desolate landscapes. After dodging death by falling boulder, Taylor and Landon have a heart to heart. Taylor accuses Landon of volunteering to join only out of obligation to his image and to secure his fame and legacy. Landon fires back that Taylor is simply misanthropic and his seemingly suicidal tendencies are ill-suited for the expedition. Taylor replies that he is not prepared to die but was glad to leave the 20th Century behind because he believes that in the vastness of space there must exist something better than mankind and he hopes to find it.\nThey come across some sparse vegetation and eventually stumble upon some furry X-shaped crosses. Taylor rushes forward despite the warning after hearing the sound of rushing water. As in Boulle\u2019s novel, the men strip and bathe in the pool they find. They come across human footprints on the shore but their clothes and supplies are strewn and torn while they try to hide their nakedness. They follow the savage-looking humans to a farm and orchard where the mute people gather and consume the crop and fruit. A hunting party of gorillas on horseback wielding rifles, nets, and clubs attacks and the group scatters in a frenzy. Dodge is shot in the back of the neck, Landon is clubbed unconscious, and Taylor\u2019s neck is torn open by a bullet. There is a moment at the end of this scene where the hunting gorillas proudly pose beside the dead humans they have just slaughtered. Presented without the fanfare of drums and trumpets which propel the earlier action, it is perhaps the film\u2019s most disturbing and haunting image.\nTaylor finds himself strapped to a slab while a chimpanzee named Dr. Galen (Wright King) treats his wound. Another, Dr. Zira (Kim Hunter) admonishes Galen over the lack of cleanliness of his operating chamber which Galen blames on the humans themselves and his belief that they are not sufficiently cleaned before being brought in despite the fact that they carry communicable diseases. Galen is jealous of the leniency and favor with which the National Academy treats Zira\u2019s research. By trade, Zira is a psychologist who believes much can be learned from the study of human brains and behavior. Zira takes a special interest in Taylor whom she names \u201cBright Eyes\u201d. She marvels at the way he appears to be struggling to speak, ignorant of the fact that his recent injury is what is causing his muteness. Impressed, she introduces him to her husband Cornelius (Roddy McDowall), an archaeologist, and her superior Dr. Zaius (Maurice Evans). Dr. Zaius is severely skeptical of her research. Despite being her apparent benefactor, he is harshly critical of her interest in Bright Eyes and urges Zira to abandon her behavior research and focus her attention on brain dissection. He exclaims, \u201cTo suggest one can learn anything about Simian nature from the study of man is sheer nonsense, a view that reflects the thought of many opposed to primatology not on ethical or moral grounds, but because it threatens their worldview.\nUnable to speak, Taylor tries to communicate with Zira through writing. His first attempt to steal her notepad and pen is thwarted by the gorilla warden Julius (Buck Kartalian). Later, he scrawls \u201cI CAN WRITE\u201d into the dirt at his feet but this attracts the attention of Nova (Linda Harrison) and a native man who begin pawing at the letters. This results in a fight which ends with Taylor taken into custody followed by Dr. Zaius scratching out the remaining letters with his cane. Eventually Taylor succeeds in stealing Zira\u2019s notepad which is returned to her along with \u201cMy name is Taylor\u201d. She decides at this point to defy the rules and brings Taylor to the home she shares with Cornelius.\nThe ape society in the movie is stratified according to species. Leadership and political positions are occupied by orangutans, researchers and doctors are chimpanzees, and guards and hunters are gorillas. The foundational document of ape society is something called The Sacred Scrolls which were written by an orangutan, considered a prophet known as Lawgiver some 1,200 years ago by their reckoning. It is revealed that Zira and Cornelius hold heterodox ideas. On a recent archaeological expedition, Cornelius claims to have discovered an ancient settlement inside The Forbidden Zone which predates The Sacred Scrolls. Cornelius is skeptical of Taylor\u2019s claims to have come from another planet orbiting a distant star but the construction and launch of a paper airplane to make a point stuns them to silence. The moment is interrupted by Dr. Zaius, who returns Taylor to his cage and crushes the toy without bothering to test it. Taylor overhears guards saying that Dr. Zaius has ordered him castrated and orchestrates an escape. Taylor runs wild through the city. The highlights are his interruption of a funeral and hiding inside a museum. To his horror, he finds the stuffed and mounted corpse of Dodge who is once again shot by a gorilla. Legend goes that Charlton Heston was recovering from a cold while filming the scene where he is captured and strung up, which adds an extra level of hoarseness to his famous words \u201cTake your stinking paws off me you damn, dirty, ape!\u201d Finally he is able to voice his displeasure at this new world. The hose used to wash the cage floors is turned on him with both anger and glee by Julius so the other guards can remove Nova from his cage. It\u2019s difficult not to recall fire hoses brandished against protesters during Civil Rights demonstrations. \u201cIt\u2019s a madhouse! A madhouse!\u201d shouts Taylor. Finally, a hearing is convened to determine his ultimate fate.\nThe tribunal is composed of Commissioner for Animal Affairs, Maximus (Woodrow Parfrey), the President of the Assembly (James Whitmore) and Dr. Zaius who is revealed to be Minister of Science and Chief Defender of the Faith. The prosecutor is Minister of Justice, Honorious (James Daly). As the scene gets going, Taylor is stripped on the pretense that his rags stink. It\u2019s an easy way to render him more vulnerable. The prosecution attempts to prove the absurd notion that the talking human is little more than a hoax and at worst an abomination of modern science. Taylor is prevented from speaking to defend himself and his written testimony is rejected as being a joke in poor taste. Because the whereabouts of Landon are still unknown the tribunal attends a gathering of all the humans captured alongside Taylor. There it is discovered, to Taylor\u2019s horror, that Landon was lobotomized during surgery to treat a skull fracture. The orangutans whose job it is to determine and uphold the truth bury their heads in the sand and literally adopt the pose of the Three Wise Monkeys covering their eyes, ears, and mouth respectively. Afterwards, the tribunal is dismissed and Dr. Zaius has Taylor brought to his office. Here Dr. Zaius reveals that the tribunal was largely political and allowed the state the pretense it needed to oust Zira and Cornelius as apostates. He also hints that Landon\u2019s lobotomy was deliberate.\nTaylor and Nova are later freed by Zira\u2019s nephew Lucius (Lou Wagner) and together with Zira and Cornelius the group journeys to The Forbidden Zone in search of the archaeological site. After arriving, Taylor shaves off his beard to the bemusement of the others. He seems to have struck up an interesting rapport with young Lucius, pointing out that when he left his world only boys his age wore beards and later encourages him to \u201cnever trust anyone over the age of 30.\u201d Dr. Zaius catches up to them but their capture is prevented by Taylor taking Zaius hostage. Taylor accuses Zaius of bias and dogmatism and convinces him to follow them into the cave. Inside, Zaius remains as skeptical as ever until the smoking gun is unearthed. A human doll that electronically speaks \u201cmama\u201d.\nAfter a brief and pointless gunfight, Zaius remains a hostage and is tied to a log by Taylor for an interrogation. Although this works as a comeuppance to Dr. Zaius for the way he has treated Taylor and other humans throughout the film, a small taste of his own medicine, it also highlights how far Taylor has drifted from his earlier ideals. Starting out as a dreamer with no special love for mankind and a distaste for violence, Taylor has now desperately fought his way to freedom. Although we sympathize with Taylor most of all, it\u2019s difficult not to appreciate where the apes are coming from when they discuss man\u2019s propensity towards violence. Zaius is accused of having already known the truth about history and of guarding a terrible secret. Zaius responds by quoting his scripture. Earlier Zaius proclaimed that \u201cman is a nuisance. He eats up his food supply in the forest, then migrates to our green belts and ravages our crops. The sooner he is exterminated, the better. It\u2019s a question of Simian survival,\u201d and here the Sacred Scrolls read:\n\u201cBeware the beast Man, for he is the Devil\u2019s pawn. Alone among God\u2019s primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother\u2019s land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.\u201d\nDr. Zaius eventually relents and declares that he has dreaded Taylor\u2019s arrival all his life, that the evidence of the human civilization proves to him that despite what they achieved men must have been stupid, emotional, and violent. Taylor presses Zaius for information on The Forbidden Zone and what lies beyond. Zaius further reveals that the area used to be a paradise before humans destroyed it and rendered it barren. He goes on to warn Taylor that he won\u2019t like what he finds. Taylor frees Dr. Zaius in exchange for supplies and takes his leave with Nova. Zira and Cornelius are summarily arrested for heresy while Lucius accuses Zaius of standing in the way of knowledge and the future. Dr. Zaius enigmatically proclaims that he may have just saved it.\nFollowing the coast of the small sea, Nova and Taylor come across a ruined hulk of metal. \u201cOh my God. I\u2019m back. I\u2019m home. All the time, it was\u2026 We finally really did it.\u201d Taylor collapses to his knees in the foam and beats his fists against the sand in anguish. \u201cYou Maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!\u201d The ruined structure is revealed to be the remains of Lady Liberty, half buried in sand. The implication is that mankind brought its civilization to an end through nuclear war.\nFifty years ago, Planet of the Apes spawned 4 sequels (some of which are arguably prequels), a television show along with an animated series, a remake in 2001 and a 2011 reboot trilogy with a fourth film planned. Novels, comic books, video games and, arguably the first big Hollywood toy and merchandise craze a decade before Star Wars, as well as hundreds of spoofs, and thousands of references. Its pop-culture legacy is undeniable. The themes of the series are pretty unabashedly about animal rights by vividly depicting the mistreatment of humans at the hands of intelligent monkeys. It\u2019s good fodder for an episode of The Twilight Zone or perhaps an ill-conceived ad campaign from an animal-rights organization. It also grapples with man\u2019s inhumanity to man since all too often humans treat their fellows as little more than beasts as pointed out by Heston\u2019s opening monologue. The hypocrisy of Zaius\u2019 role as Minister of Science and Chief Defender of the Faith is directly called out by Taylor. Cornelius is shown to be skeptical of Taylor\u2019s claims but Dr. Zaius is shown to be in denial, to be purposefully suppressing the truth for personal reasons. Like a zealot, he believes that he is acting in accordance with his faith and that he is doing the right thing. In a sense Zaius and Taylor agree that humans are no good, but the apes don\u2019t seem to be any better and display the same selfishness, violence, and small-mindedness that Taylor hoped to leave behind.\nThe heavens declare the glory of the Bomb, and the firmament showeth His handiwork.\nHis sound has gone out unto all the land.\nAnd his light unto the end of the world.\nHe descendeth from the outermost part of heaven, and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.\nThere is neither speech nor language, yet His voice is heard among them.\nMay the blessings of the Bomb Almighty and the fellowship of the Holy Fallout descend on us all, this night and for evermore.\n\u2013 Psalm by Mendez II (abridged), read by Mendez XXVI\nThis film begins with a slightly edited version of the original\u2019s finale. Cornelius (Roddy McDowall) reads aloud from The Sacred Scrolls, Zaius declares humans to be base and evil and warns Taylor, and then he and Nova stumble upon the Statue of Liberty. Continuing from there, the couple is stopped in their tracks by a great wall of flames, watches in horror as the land buckles and falls away at their feet, and ultimately realize it\u2019s all a hallucination. Taylor advances alone, intent on learning the truth, and disappears into a wall of rock and from the film. Nova, wearing his dog tags, carries on. She stumbles across the crash site of yet another 20th Century space ship where John Brent (James Franciscus) has just finished burying his crewmate. Together, they fulfill Taylor\u2019s final instructions to Nova which are to return to Zira should anything have happened to him.\nUpon arriving at Ape City, Brent and Nova spy on a council meeting led by Dr. Zaius and the gorilla General Ursus (James Gregory). Ursus is drumming up support for a campaign to venture into The Forbidden Zone and eradicate humans once and for all. Apparently a scouting party was wiped out and he is determined to find and destroy whatever killed his men. Strangely, Cornelius (David Watson) and Zira have not been tried as heretics after all, or have been found not guilty. Dr. Zaius is also a more sympathetic character than before. He dreads the notion of war and claims scientific curiosity as his main motivation. He counsels caution, patience, and deliberate restriction of the truth, but that\u2019s as evil as he gets. Other continuity errors include Brent claiming the date to be 3955 when it should be 3978 according to the readings from Taylor\u2019s ship. These changes are probably the simple result of having to unexpectedly produce a sequel; sequels were rare at the time and Planet of the Apes was never intended to spawn a franchise.\nBrent and Nova sneak into Zira and Cornelius\u2019 home where Brent learns Taylor\u2019s last known location. Captured while attempting to leave, Brent and Nova escape with Zira\u2019s help and are chased down by a party of gorillas. Brent and Nova take refuge in a cave on the edge of The Forbidden Zone. The cave is revealed to be an underground version of the Queensboro Plaza New York City Subway Station and Brent\u2019s reaction is similar to Taylor\u2019s. Shocked that \u201cthey finally really did it,\u201d Brent wonders aloud whether \u201call that talking around all those tables\u201d ever amounted to anything. While pondering a sleeping Nova, he similarly muses over whether the world would have been better if humans had stayed like her, before they \u201clearned to talk, and made a mess of everything.\u201d Urged on by a mysterious psychic humming noise, he and Nova move down the unusually well-lit tunnel where they eventually climb a short ladder and emerge in the ruins of Manhattan. Time is either very condensed, the disaster somehow pushed everything together, or the producers are simply as unfamiliar with NYC as the depiction of the subway station suggests because Nova and Brent walk past the ruins of the New York City Public Library, The New York Stock Exchange, and Radio City Music Hall in a matter of minutes before ending up outside Saint Patrick\u2019s Cathedral. Inside, they find a man praying to a shiny golden atomic missile labelled A\u03a9 on one of its fins. All of the crucifixes have been flipped upside down to better resemble the rocket\u2019s shape.\nRemnants of human civilization have survived the nuclear holocaust and live underground to hide from the apes. These future humans use their psychic abilities to communicate with one another as well as to torture, interrogate, and control intruders. By using their psychic powers these humans can induce pain in others to torture them, create surreal and terrifying visions, and even force individuals to attack and kill friends or loved ones. Despite such brutal tactics, the future humans consider themselves pacifists and according to their twisted morality they do not directly cause others harm since the pain is mental, and by forcing intruders to kill each other they don\u2019t believe they are doing anything wrong. The ape army manages to break through the illusion created to stop them when Dr. Zaius is unable to accept the vision of the Lawgiver\u2019s statue burning and bleeding. As the apes advance through the tunnels, Brent is thrown into a cage with Taylor where the two are forced to do battle. While the resemblance between the two actors was striking, the differences become obvious once the two are together. For one, Heston is a great deal taller and older than Franciscus and Franciscus has better teeth. Nova is able to free them in the chaos that ensues, but meets her fate when she is shot by a gorilla soldier. Taylor and Brent fight their way back to the cathedral where they witness the human religious leader Mendez (Paul Richards) activating the weapon.\nThe humans have been planning to activate the bomb, which they call a weapon of peace, in fulfillment of some religious duty. Unbeknownst to them, perhaps, is that this is the ultimate doomsday weapon with a cobalt casing. The explosion, according to Taylor, will be powerful enough to ignite the atmosphere and burn the planet to a cinder. Ursus orders his soldiers to tear down the rocket despite Dr. Zaius\u2019 warnings. Brent and Taylor initiate a counter attack after the fallen bomb begins to spew smoke. Taylor is fatally wounded by Ursus who is then killed by Brent. After watching Brent\u2019s death at the hands of Ursus\u2019 soldiers, Taylor pleads for Dr. Zaius to help him. Scoffing at the idea, Zaius says he has no reason to because men are capable only of destruction. \u201cYou bloody bastard\u201d, replies Taylor who then decides the world\u2019s fate and detonates the bomb with his final breath.\nA narrator appears for the first time and closes the film with \u201cIn one of the countless billions of galaxies in the universe, lies a medium-sized star, and one of its satellites, a green and insignificant planet, is now dead.\u201d It\u2019s a sobering message about the irresponsibility, horror, and finality of nuclear war.\nThis film has a few interesting flourishes. It\u2019s nothing quite as good as the first film, which included such arresting moments as humans cowering in terror from a gorilla wielding a flaming torch, but is important and rings true nevertheless. Zira rejects Dr. Zaius\u2019 excuses and correctly points out that he exists only in service of the status quo. Like many leaders, his only duty is to preserve his power and prevent any change which could potentially unseat him. It is a timeless and poignant critique of retrograde, conservative politics. That moment is followed by Ursus\u2019 and Zaius\u2019 warpath literally getting stopped in its tracks by a protest of young chimpanzees apparently led by Lucius. They wield crude picket signs, chant snappy slogans, and shout \u201cgorilla brutality!\u201d when they are forcibly removed. The depiction of chimps as peaceful scholars and gorillas as warmongering brutes is perhaps far removed from the biological reality of these animals, but it works for the movie\u2019s fiction.\nBy focusing in on the nuclear holocaust aspect of the first film, the sequel loses itself a bit. The world isn\u2019t so much an upside-down madhouse through which it can explore political, social, and religious themes as it is just another version of the future where the planet is doomed because of our inability to stave off nuclear Armageddon. Comparing our political and military leaders to monkeys is less powerful when the peaceful protestors and innocent bystanders are also monkeys. The twist reveal at the end, aside from Nova yelling out \u201cTaylor!\u201d moments before she is killed, is that the humans living underground in their warped cathedral are all wearing masks which hide their disfigured mutant faces that place them somewhere between The Phantom of the Opera and the Star Trek aliens from \u201cThe Menagerie part II\u201d.\nAs a sequel, it is fine enough but it definitely wrote itself into a corner. Luckily there are three more Planet of the Apes films in the original series which feature Cornelius, Zira, their son Caesar, and Ricardo Montalban as Armando.\nAPPENDIX (PART ONE):\nThe shoulder of Orion is a pretty common location in sci-fi, the extrasolar system second in popularity only to the nearest stars to our Sun: Alpha Centauri. For the record, Alpha Centauri is a star system made up of three stars: Alpha Centauri A, B, and C. C, the nearest to the Sun, is also called Proxima Centauri. The light from these stars is visible from Earth in the Southern Hemisphere; and together they form one of the points in the Centaurus constellation, specifically the front leg.\nTrouble is, Orion the archer has two shoulders. On the left is Bellatrix a small blue giant, and on the right is Betelgeuse, a massive red supergiant and one of the brightest visible stars. Complicating this affair is that constellations are really only arbitrary groupings. Being grouped together in a constellation says nothing about the relationship between the stars themselves. Betelgeuse is 640 million light-years from Earth, Bellatrix is 245 million light years from Earth. For the uninitiated, a light-year is a unit of measurement determined by how far light would travel in a vacuum for an entire year. It\u2019s the equivalent of approximately 6 trillion miles. Although we know the astronauts did not reach their destination we do know they intended to reach Bellatrix. Planning to do so with only 18 months of relative travel would require astounding speeds attainable only in the realms of science fiction. For a fictional story featuring time travel, talking monkeys, and nuclear bombs powerful to crack the Earth in two this is perhaps the biggest leap in science the film expects of us, even if it is a common one in science fiction.\nPrevious TOP TEN FAVORITE FILMS OF 2017 (DAN\u2019S LIST)\nNext 2018 ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATION PREDICTIONS: THE MAJOR 8 CATEGORIES\n2 thoughts on \u201cPLANET OF THE APES (PART ONE): THE TRAGEDY OF TAYLOR\u201d",

The mayor started the fundraising entity in 2014, and developers were among the fund\u2019s biggest donors. While the campaign finance board found that the fund didn\u2019t violate its rules, it criticized the mayor\u2019s handling of the nonprofit and said it raised serious policy questions.\nLast week, the city\u2019s Department of Investigation published a report that found that City Hall knew about the $116 million sale of 45 Rivington Street on the Lower East Side. In February 2015, the Allure Group paid VillageCare $28 million for the building. Nine months later, the city removed the deed restrictions and Allure subsequently sold the building for $116 million to developers including Slate Property Group , Adam America Real Estate and China Vanke.\nThe report also revealed an email from a Slate representative warning employees of the firm to keep quiet about the deal until the deed restrictions had been removed.\nThe mayor had said he was not aware that the deed restriction on the property had been lifted, paving the way for luxury condos. The DOI, however, found that de Blasio either \u201cknew or should have known.\u201d\n\u201cWe are fully confident that the campaign has conducted itself legally and appropriately at all times,\u201d a spokesperson for Campaign for One New York told the Post.

ABSOLUTELY NOT. No one can be in government unless he/she is filthy rich since politics became a capitalistic endeavor.\nIs it a government by the people? ABSOLUTELY NOT. You cannot have a democracy in a society that is so ill educated and completely cynical about politics.\nIs it a government for the people? ABSOLUTELY NOT. History has proven over and over and over and over that the United States Government deserve the rich and the corporations and fucks the people.\nSo, Let us take Stanford University\u2019s definition one by one:\nElections in the United States has never been fair recently. Since George Bush the Baby, we know that the machines are tampered with by experts. Adding to that the very dangerously unique Electoral Voting System which takes the Majority out the window. So Elections are neither free nor fair in the United States of America.\nIt is well known among all educated people in America and the world that the United States of America has the lowest voting turn out because people are either uneducated, stupid, or cynical. Hence this does not apply, either\nMost Americans and people of the world know that the united states Government, especially in the Bible Belt States, have made it extremely difficult for people to vote and they continue to make it harder by asking for more and more requirement. America is a Fascist State.\nThe world knows that today the United States of America is not a country of law and order. President-Want-to-Be Donald Trump believes he is above the law and has continuously and persistently abused the law and disrespected the Constitution.\nSo, dear reader, do not think you live in a free country; do not believe in the anthem since America is neither the land of the free nor the home of the brave; and do not think the Statue of Liberty represents America today.

Engaging teaching staff with an analysis of their assessment results\nAuthor: Crisp, G.\nCitation: Critical visions : thinking, learning and researching in higher education : proceedings of the 2006 annual international conference of the Higher Education Research and Development Society of Australasia Inc (HERDSA), 9-13 July 2006, The University of Western Australia / Alison Bunker and Iris Vardi (eds.)\nPublisher: Higher Education Research and Development Society of Australasia\nConference Name: Higher Education Research and Development Society of Australasia Conference (29th : 2006 : University of Western Australia)\nResponsibility: Geoffrey Crisp and Edward Palmer\nAbstract: An appropriate analysis of student responses to multiple-choice type questions is a central part of reviewing whether there is an appropriate alignment between learning objectives and assessment tasks. There is a lack of familiarity amongst many academic staff about the process of analyzing these types of assessments, especially where a formal understanding of statistics is required. Many of the established literature methods are complex, and difficult for overworked academics to apply. We have analysed student responses to a number of multiple-choice assessments and examined different formats for presenting the resulting data to academic staff. The commercially available tool WinSteps was used to provide formal reports, and Microsoft Excel was used to present the data in alternative visual formats. The WinSteps reports provide a rich source of useful data about student responses, but this data can be difficult to interpret and is not particularly engaging for non-specialists. We have proposed a set of simple and effective formats that allow academic staff to visually identify individual questions that should be reviewed before being used in a subsequent assessment. Preliminary feedback from academic staff has indicated which formats were useful and where further development in the assessment reporting process would be of benefit.\nDescription (link): http://conference.herdsa.org.au/2006/abstract.cfm?id=092",

        "raw_content": "Nothing from Nothing: The Invention of ZERO\nAugust 11, 2018 Staff Reporter Education, Science & Technology 0\nThe invention of zero was a hugely significant mathematical development, one that is fundamental to calculus, which has made physics, engineering and much of modern technology possible.\nThe invention of the zero was a hugely significant mathematical development, one that is fundamental to calculus, which made physics, engineering and much of modern technology possible. But what was it about Indian culture that gave rise to this creation that\u2019s so important to modern India \u2013 and the modern world?\nThe mathematical zero \u2013 \u2018shunya\u2019 in Sanskrit \u2013 may have arisen from Shunyata, the Buddhist doctrine of emptying one\u2019s mind. Buddhist and Hindu religions that have origin in India embrace the concept of nothingness as part of their teachings. Dr Peter Gobets, secretary of the Netherlands-based ZerOrigIndia Foundation, or the Zero Project, which researches the origins of the zero digit, noted in an article on the invention of zero that \u201cMathematical zero (\u2018shunya\u2019 in Sanskrit) may have arisen from the contemporaneous philosophy of emptiness or Shunyata [a Buddhist doctrine of emptying one\u2019s mind from impressions and thoughts]\u201d.\nIn addition, the nation has long had a fascination with sophisticated mathematics. Early Indian mathematicians were obsessed with giant numbers, counting well into the trillions when the Ancient Greeks stopped at about 10,000. They even had different types of infinity.\nMariellen Ward of the BBC writes, the earliest known example of zero written as a digit can be found in the temple inside an 8th century Gwalior Fort in India. Indians, unlike people from many other cultures, were already philosophically open to the concept of nothingness. Systems such as yoga were developed to encourage meditation and the emptying of the mind, while both the Buddhist and Hindu religions embrace the concept of nothingness as part of their teachings.\nAlthough Gwalior has long been thought to be the site of the first occurrence of the zero written as a circle, an ancient Indian scroll called the Bhakshali manuscript, which shows a placeholder dot symbol, was recently carbon dated to the 3rd or 4rd Centuries. It is now considered the earliest recorded occurrence of zero.\nMarcus du Sautoy, professor of mathematics at the University of Oxford, is quoted on the university\u2019s website as saying, \u201c[T]he creation of zero as a number in its own right, which evolved from the placeholder dot symbol found in the Bakhshali manuscript, was one of the greatest breakthroughs in the history of mathematics. We now know that it was as early as the 3rd Century that mathematicians in India planted the seed of the idea that would later become so fundamental to the modern world. The findings show how vibrant mathematics have been in the Indian sub-continent for centuries.\u201d\nBut equally interesting are the reasons as to why the zero wasn\u2019t developed elsewhere. One theory is that some cultures had a negative view of the concept of nothingness. For example, there was a time in the early days of Christianity in Europe when religious leaders banned the use of zero because they felt that, since God is in everything, a symbol that represented nothing must be satanic.\nSo maybe there is something to these connected ideas, to the spiritual wisdom of India that gave rise to meditation and the invention of zero. There\u2019s another connected idea, too, which has had a profound effect on the modern world.\nThe concept of zero is essential to a system that\u2019s at the basis of modern computing: binary numbers. The concept of zero is essential to binary numbers, the system at the basis of modern computing. Bengaluru may even overtake Silicon Valley, with predictions suggesting it could become the single largest IT hub on Earth by 2020, with two million IT professionals, six million indirect IT jobs and $80 billion in IT exports. It\u2019s binary numbers that make this possible.\nModern-day digital computers operate on the principle of two possible states, \u2018on\u2019 and \u2018off\u2019. The \u2018on\u2019 state is assigned the value \u20181\u2019, while the \u2018off\u2019 state is assigned the value \u20180\u2019. Or, zero.\n\u201cIt is perhaps not surprising that binary number system was also invented in India, in the 2nd or 3rd Centuries BCE by a musicologist named Pingala, although this use was for prosody,\u201d said Subhash Kak, historian of science and astronomy and Regents Professor at Oklahoma State University. And yet all of this started in India\u2026 from nothing.\nShah Rukh Khan\u2019s daughter Suhana Khan to make her big Bollywood debut\nVisit Asia\u2019s Cleanest village, Mawlynnong, Meghalaya",

        "raw_content": "Home News Parts Aston Martin Develops Kits to Convert Classics into EVs\nAston Martin is working on the development of a reversible electric \u201ccassette\u201d powertrain that could be used to convert its classic models into electric vehicles. Thus, the vintage cars could still be driven in areas where internal combustion engine powered cars have been outlawed without affecting their external appearance.\nTo showcase the work that has been done in this regard, Aston Martin unveiled a proof-of-concept model using the 1970 DB6 Mark II Volante.\nThe DB6 has been fitted with a self-contained cassette which houses the new all-electric powertrain. This cassette is placed on the original engine and gearbox mountings. The cassette comes with cords which can be connected to the car\u2019s electrical systems to give them power. Motorists can keep tabs on power management through a screen that has been discreetly fitted to the car\u2019s interior.\nAston Martin said that this conversion makes it possible for the vehicle to be environment friendly and thus socially responsible, while also taking its historical significance into consideration. If the owner wants, it is also possible for him to reinstall the original drivetrain.\nThe conversion work is to be performed by Aston Martin Works, the company\u2019s in-house subsidiary which specializes in the restoration, sale and maintenance of the brand\u2019s past models.\nAccording to Aston Martin, the powertrains for its cassette conversions will use \u201ckey components\u201d which will be used in the Rapide E all-electric sedan.\nAston Martin is planning to carry out the first classic car conversions in 2019.\nTags: Aston MartinclassicsEVs\nUber to resume Autonomous Vehicle Testing Program\nGeely Auto Forms Joint Venture with CATL for Vehicle Batteries",

Because Mr. Watson was unmarried, the area was known as Bachelor's Grove.\nIn 1841 David Douglas, Stephen C. Douglass and Samuel Colby who arrived with their families from Michigan settled near one another on the banks of Bass Creek, near the present site of Hanover. Hanover, in the Town of Plymouth, at the junction of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway and the Chicago & Northwestern Railway, was first located by Joseph Hohensheldt in 1844.\nTown of Plymouth was organized by an act of Territorial Legislature on March 8, 1848 and the first town meeting of Plymouth was held on August 28, 1848. The population of the Town of Plymouth in 1850 was 511. There were two railroad lines passing through the town, crossing at Hanover Station on Bass Creek. In 1856 a post-office was established with William Ranney as the postmaster. The first freight was received at Hanover in Sept. 1857. The original name of Hanover was Bass Creek. It was changed by John Higgins, owner of the town site, to honor his German neighbors, some of whom had come from Hanover Township in NE Pennsylvania.\nSource: Rock County, Wisconsin by William Fiske Brown and A.

        "raw_content": "ITW - EMMANUEL BELLANGER - PART3\n\"How has the relationship between Paris and its suburbs evolved since the '60s?\"\n-The law from 10th July 1964\nwas a significant event in the history of the Paris-suburbs relationship\nbecause, simply, it put an end to the Grand Paris experiment,\nthe Grand Paris invented in the early 20th century,\nwhich had, evidently, demonstrated an amount of success,\nas showed by the densification of public service networks\nin this metropolitan area.\nOn 10th June 1964, for reasons which will become clear,\nthe Gaullist state decides to bring an end\nto this political, urban, social, and economic experiment,\nwhich is original and unique, at least in France.\nFirstly, because Paul Delouvrier,\na senior official, a financial inspector,\nwho managed the Paris regional district in 1961,\nwhich is what would later become Regional Council of Ile-de-France,\ndetermined that in a region, the Parisian region,\nthere cannot be two great powers such as these.\nThe metropolitan power, that of the Grand Paris,\nwith its government, focused around the Seine general council,\nalso with its own administration\nin the form of the Seine prefect, the Seine prefecture\nand its technical and administrative services.\nAnd a region, a region that did not yet exist,\nwhich was only a district,\nand that intended to impose itself on the whole area.\nThis reform of 1964 shows considerations\nwe could describe as being partisan considerations\nand they were not only supported by administrative considerations.\nFinally, there is a third consideration,\nthe fate in store, until now, for the outer suburbs.\nThe outer suburbs, meaning the Seine-et-Oise department.\nThe Seine-et-Oise comprised around 700 communes,\nnot quite, but near to 700 communes\nand was the poorest area in this Parisian region.\nIt did not benefit from these policies of equalization and solidarity\nwhich had, until now,\nessentially served the interests of the inner suburbs,\nthose which formed, along with Paris, the Seine department.\nSo, this Seine-et-Oise area,\nwhich was an isolated area,\nan under-managed area,\nan under-equipped area,\naspired, in a way, to be integrated into the metropolitan dynamic\nand benefit from this.\nAnd so, abolishing the M\u00e9tropole du Grand Paris\nwas also supposed to serve the interests of these outer suburbs\nwhich, until now, had been the poor cousin\nof these systems of solidarity that I mentioned,\nwhich had largely benefitted the capital city departments,\nnamely the Seine department.\nIt is important to remember,\nwith regard to this fundamental 1964 reform,\nthat this departmental reform,\nwhich followed on from the creation of districts,\ncreated a united front\nof all the elected representatives from Grand Paris,\ncommunists, socialists, radical socialists,\nconservatives, including Gaullists,\nfrom both the city and the suburbs,\nin support of a clear refusal\nof this reform, of these successive reforms,\nbecause they believed in preserving the Grand Paris.\nExcept this campaign from the officials\nis not listened to by central government.\nWe should also note that even the prefectural body,\nand in particular the prefects of the Seine,\nwhich was considered almost a state within a state,\nas a ministry,\nbecause of its power which was recognized universally...\nAlongside this, we are reminded of Hausmann,\nwho was prominent within this institution.\nEven this prefectural body was very cautious of the Grand Paris members.\nAt the same time, paradoxically,\nthe Gaullist state envisaged a government\nfor provincial urban areas,\nin creating, some years later, in 1966, the urban communities.\nFor example, urban communities\nin Strasbourg, Lyon, Lille, and Bordeaux.\nThey were created in a discretionary way,\nbut this came back to the idea\nthat the state could support local authorities.\nBut of course, this local authority was refused in Paris,\nalthough, until then, it seemed that it had proved itself.\nI would say that its refusal\nwas due to the geopolitics and ratio of power at the time.\nThe regime of the Fifth Republic\nsought to reinforce regionalization,\nmeaning the district of Paris, the regional district of Paris,\nto the detriment of the capital city and the suburbs,\nthe inner suburbs, which formed this Grand Paris\nfrom the early 20th century onwards.",

        "raw_content": "Not having any vowels in a word could also lead to some problems, and,\nin fact, they may well have done that in ancient Egypt.\nSo let's think about it first in terms of English.\nIf we decide to have a word without a vowel, say, for example,\nTake these two, get rid of the vowels.\nSo it becomes a new word, and both of them would be written out the same way.\nAnd how would you know which one was which?\nAnd that became a problem for the Egyptians.\nAnother example might well be the word,\nSail, sale,\nSeal, Sole.\nYou can make up a lot of words that will have only the same two consonants.\nAnd if we get rid of the vowels in each one,\nwe wind up with pretty much the same letters.\nActually, exactly the same letters.\nSo how would you distinguish among all of these?\nThey're all pronounced S-L or sl, so we want to know how did the ancient\nEgyptians distinguish each one of these when they were all written the same?\nThese are sort of called homographs, so they look the same, but\nthey aren't necessarily the same.\nAnd for the ancient Egyptians, they came up with a really good solution.\nThey put a sign at the end of the word,\nwhich did not have any sound value.\nSo here are your sound values, and at the end, let's say, for\nexample, with this one.\nWe put this at the end.\nAnd this one we\nput this sign\nAnd this one, And this one, We put this at the end.\nSo we have a boat, we have a dollar sign, we have a cylinder seal.\nIn this one we have the bottom of a foot.\nAnd that makes each of these words very clear as to what they are.\nThe pronunciation, at least in terms of the consonants, would be the same.\nBut the signs at the ends would indicate the meaning of the words.\nAnd you can see this is a very simple solution, and it's incredible that this\nwas done at the time and it stayed intact for thousands of years.\nThese signs we call determinatives.\nAnd we call it that because they help to determine what the words really were.\nOne of the best examples of the use of a determinative\nactually takes place in ancient Egypt.\nSo here's a new example, and this one is actually ancient Egyptian.\nThis is a vulture.\nAnd here's a word, it would have been pronounced, and\nwe'll talk about pronunciation shortly,\nMoot, and if we put, This sign,\nA woman after it, it is the word for mother.\nBut if we put,\nThis determinative with this determinative of a falling or\ndying man, it becomes the word for death.\nSo if you were a scribe, you had to be very,\nvery careful about the use of determinatives.\nAnd sometimes, when the determinatives are used,\nthere is a confusion, because the scribes were taking dictation.\nAnd very often they weren't really listening to what\nwas being said to them very carefully and not trying to understand it.\nAnd so, in those cases,\nthey would write the wrong determinative down.",

        "raw_content": "In 1986, in an effort to control illegal immigration, Congress passed the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA). The IRCA was enacted to legalize approximately three million undocumented immigrants while at the same time, attempted to deter future undocumented immigration.\nIn order to be in compliance with IRCA's directives, all U.S. employers must complete a Form I-9 for each employee hired after November 6, 1986.\nThe federal Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, is used by employers as a record of their basis for determining eligibility of an employee to work in the United States.\nThe form is kept by the employer and made available for inspection by officials of the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Labor, and the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices.\nIf an employer misses any steps or forgets to include the proper documents, they are at risk for fines with possible, and quite serious legal complications, which is why it is so important to verify every aspect of an employee's I-9.\nWhy should you Attend: Are you confident your organization is in full compliance with federal immigration laws, or do you risk being assessed costly fines - or worse - for potential violations?\nIt is a violation of Federal immigration law for any employer to knowingly hire employees who are not authorized to work in the U.S. As part of the employment eligibility verification process, within three days of hire employees must complete a Form I-9 and submit proof of identity and eligibility to work in the United States.\nThe process of completing, storing, and properly disposing of I-9s can be daunting. The current Administration is strongly focused on immigration enforcement, and the chances of your organization being audited are higher than ever.\nDue to this increased focus, more employers are conducting proactive self-audits of their I-9s and supporting documentation. Additionally, more employers are participating in the Federal E-Verify program, a web-based system that allows businesses to confirm the eligibility of their employees to work in the U.S.\nIn this informative 90-minute program, you'll get the information you need to ensure your organization is correctly filling out the I-9 form for each employee, collecting proper documentation, complying with recordkeeping best practices, and conducting self-audits.\nYou will also learn about the E-Verify process which can assist employers with good faith immigration compliance. Additionally, participation in this webinar will provide you with insight on surviving an external audit, ensuring I-9 compliance, and avoiding hefty fines and enforcement actions from the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).\nWhat is Form I-9 and who must comply?\nBest practices for completing Form I-9\nTimetable for completion of I-9's\nEmployer & Employee responsibilities when completing I-9s\nAcceptable ways to verify Employee Documentation\nCommon I-9 Errors & Omissions\nI-9 errors & omissions Correction Procedures\nI-9 re-verification Process for non-U.S. citizens and non-permanent Residents\nBest practices for Copying and Storing Forms I-9\nCompliance with the Form I-9 retention period\nSelf-audits & Immigration & Customs Enforcement Audits\nLevels of Violations\nProcedures for Self-auditing of I-9 forms\nWhat to know about the Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) Audits Process\nICE Inspection Notices\nI-9 & E-Verify: Know the difference\nBenefits of participating in E-Verify\nE-Verify rules & procedures\nStates with mandatory E-Verify Participation\nE-Verify Audits\nSteps when conducting an E-Verify Audit",

        "raw_content": "Home Business News Top fintech VCs explain how PayPal missed a golden opportunity and why...\nTop fintech VCs explain how PayPal missed a golden opportunity and why they wouldn\u2019t invest in LendingClub today\nPayPal is arguably one of the biggest success stories to come out of Silicon Valley in the last 20 years. It launched the careers of Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and Max Levchin and paved the way for other members of the \u201cPayPal mafia\u201d to make seed investments in a next generation of startups.\nBut did it make a strategic mistake?\nThat\u2019s one theory based on the current thinking about the alternative-lending industry, according to three of the top venture capitalists who invest in financial-technology startups.\nThe investors \u2014 Matt Harris of Bain Capital Ventures, Jim Robinson of RRE Ventures, and Hans Morris of Nyca Partners \u2014 discussed PayPal\u2019s missed opportunity at a recent panel hosted by Morgan Stanley at the firm\u2019s third annual invite-only Fintech Summit, where about 100 companies presented to bank executives.\nIt was part of a bigger discussion about how online lending businesses like OnDeck and LendingClub have to go out and find customers, and how that stacks up against newer firms like Square, the firm started by Twitter founder Jack Dorsey that offers loans to small businesses and consumers.\n\u201cOnDeck and LendingClub have scaled, strong businesses now, but you\u2019d never invest in those companies as startups today,\u201d Harris said. \u201cI don\u2019t think you would look at unsecured personal lending or small-business lending, where you have to go out and acquire customers in the wild, with no special sauce. That\u2019s 10-year-old thinking.\u201d\nA LendingClub spokesperson declined to comment, deferring to Morris, who also acts as LendingClub\u2019s chairman, to offer a statement on behalf of the company. A spokesman for OnDeck said the company had too much scale for startups to catch up, thanks to a technology platform and a capital base that continues to grow.\n\u201cObviously, there is a right time for VCs to invest and there is a time where it is too late,\u201d the OnDeck spokesman said. \u201cThe VCs who invested in OnDeck 10 years ago did well.\u201d\nThe current model many VCs advocate is for companies to find ways to offer additional services, like loans, to existing customers. Acquiring new customers can be expensive, and there\u2019s a competitive advantage when you underwrite or target new services to existing customers, because they know more about them.\nThat\u2019s the \u201cmodern thinking,\u201d according to Harris. Square has an \u201cunfair advantage both in terms of customer acquisition and information\u201d because they already know what their customers are doing, he said. \u201cThat\u2019s the future of alternative credit today.\u201d\nMorris added that investors like himself overlooked the amount of capital startups need when their traditional sources of money, like retail or institutional investors, dry up.\n\u201cFinancial services markets are massive and ripe for disruption,\u201d Morris said in a follow-up statement on Monday. \u201cThat said, building a financial services business requires meeting material capital and regulatory requirements which act simultaneously as a barrier to entry for new players and a substantial competitive moat for existing ones.\u201d\nLendingClub\u2019s stock has fallen 77% from its 2014 initial public offering through Friday, to $3.47, after its founder was forced to resign over compliance issues that later led the Securities and Exchange Commission to charge him with fraud and ban him from the securities industry. Investors have also come to believe that companies like LendingClub and OnDeck should be valued more like lenders than technology firms. OnDeck\u2019s stock has fallen 64% since its 2014 IPO, closing at $7.26 last week.\nIt\u2019s helpful to go back and look at companies that didn\u2019t take advantage of their own strengths when you\u2019re examining prevailing business models, Robinson said.\n\u201cPayPal is in many ways an interesting example of an opportunity not taken,\u201d he said. \u201cIn fairness to them, the real network technologies that showed up to link things really came a little bit later into their gestation cycle, and they had some pretty big deals with other partners that required a lot of attention.\u201d\nBut they \u201ccould have done a much better job,\u201d he said. \u201cThey were nowhere in consumer lending. So just because you may have this sort of early position, it doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t be co-opted by upstarts that are coming along after you.\u201d\nPayPal, which was founded in 1998 and went public in 2002 only to be bought by eBay that same year, finally got into the credit game with eBay\u2019s 2008 purchase of Bill Me Later. It now offers financing options for consumers through retail partnerships, credit cards, and small-business loans.\n\u201cPayPal is always looking at ways to offer consumers new ways to pay,\u201d a spokesman said in a statement that also cited its purchase of Bill Me Later.\nPrevious articleAriana Grande\u2019s \u2018Thank U, Next\u2019 Gets A Synthy, Soulful Cover From The 1975\nNext articleHundreds of additional US troops take position in California as migrants clash with border patrol\nA stock picker in Wall Street\u2019s top 1% this year unveils the 4 investment...\nESPYs 2018 Winners: Awards Results, Recap, Top Moments and Twitter Reaction\nThe last 92 Irrawaddy dolphins in Mekong River may not survive\nLebanon\u2019s border tense as Israel excavates \u2018Hezbollah tunnels\u2019",

So check it out, making a 5 chord/ Power chord is pretty easy. All we need to do is take the 1st and the 5th note of the Major scale and play them together. This makes our Power Chord. This is a very cool moveable chord that will instantaneously turn you into a rock star! Using the Chromatic scale that we talked about earlier we can move this chord all over the fret board and come up with some of the greatest sounding progressions.\nA minor rock is a great Funk Rock groove with crazy organ parts to fill it up and make it sound fat and groovy. This will be a great place to start using our power chords. Many of the greatest songs were made up of just a couple of power chords and what we are going to do today is elaborate on some of the different ideas we can do with just two chords. Bands like Led Zeppelin and AC/DC used these same chords to make some of the most memorable songs of all time! Remember, slow and accurate is always the way to go. We should always take each example and play it very slow at first and then slowly up the tempo.",

These electric fields attract dust, floating particles, etc. The electric field is measured in units of volts per meter (V/m).\nMagnetic fields are created around an electric current (such as that flowing through high-voltage power lines). The stronger the current, the stronger the magnetic field created around it. The power of the field decreases as a square of the distance from the source of the electric current. Magnetic fields are also generated around magnetic bodies. For instance, if iron filings are scattered near a magnet, they will align themselves according to the field lines of the magnet.

The Chizo (Chiso) Indians were nomadic desert people who lived in the area now covered by northeastern Chihuahua, northwestern Coahuila, and the lower Big Bend region of Trans-Pecos Texas. They were also known under the alternate name of Taquitatome. The names of several Chisos bands are known: Chizo proper, Batayogligla, Chichitame, Guazapayogligla, Osatayogligla, Satapayogligla, and Sunigogligla. Some writers consider the Chizo as an eastern subdivision of the Concho Indians. The Chisos Mountains of the Big Bend National Park are believed to have been named for the Chizo Indians, whose range included the present park area.\nJack D.

This article, however, considers the potential effect on the directors of banks of the newly codified duties under the Companies Act 2006. In particular it studies S.172 - the duty to promote the success of the company - and the impact of 'Enlightened Shareholder Value' (ESV).

        "title": "Peterson nails Western women \u2013 The Unseen Moon",
        "raw_content": "THOUGH JORDAN Peterson rose rapidly to fame almost two years ago, first in Canada where he lives and teaches, I didn\u2019t become a fan until recently, and that\u2019s because his fame is spreading everywhere.\nWhat brought him to public notice was his outspoken opposition to an idiotic Canadian law mandating the use of PC gender pronouns.\nSay zhe and zher, or you\u2019re going to jail, baby.\nPeterson has published two books. One is The Maps of Meaning, The Architecture of Belief, published in 1999, and the other is 12 Rules for Life, An Antidote to Chaos, published earlier this year.\nPeterson, a clinical psychologist and a psychology professor at the University of Toronto, has been on a global speaking tour for some time now.\nWhat makes him so wonderful is (1) he agrees with me, and (2) he brooks no stupidity at all, and will chew you up and spit you out.\nThe above video is a good taste of Peterson\u2019s mind and mouth.\nTopic: western womenfolk.\nLeft-wingers, brace yourselves!\nJuly 12, 2018 \u00b7 Posted in Libertarian view \u00b7 Tagged Canada, Jordan Peterson, lunacy, political correctness, psychology, stupidity \u00b7\n19 thoughts on \u201cPeterson nails Western women\u201d\nSadly (or not) there doesn\u2019t seem to be an idiotic Canadian law criminalizing the use of personal pronouns. At least I can\u2019t find any evidence of it. Once again, if something appears to be too good to be true, it usually is. Most references I find think Prof. Peterson is blowing smoke. For what reason I can only imagine.\nCreigh: Bill C-16.\nhttps://waa.ai/aFTO\nCreigh: In Europe too now, people are being arrested for expressing \u201cwrong thought.\u201d\nCreigh, PS: The law \u201calso adds that evidence that an offence was motivated by bias, prejudice or hate based on a person\u2019s gender identity or expression constitutes an aggravating circumstance for a court to consider when imposing a criminal sentence.\u201d\n\u201cor expression.\u201d\nThis can be interpreted very widely, especially in a PC-obsessed nation like Canada.\nI saw the reference to C-16. I could read the bill, but until a judge rules on an actual case it would just be my (worthless) opinion on what it means. Most people think that the bill says something like use of pronouns can be a factor in sentencing of other crimes. But then it\u2019s true that almost anything can be a factor in sentencing, in the eyes of a judge. I don\u2019t know about Canada, but here in the U.S. \u201canything you say can be used against you.\u201d\nMaking motivation an issue for the law has its problems, and has to be used carefully. For one thing, it can be hard to prove. But we do use motivation as an issue in murder, for example, where premeditation definitely affects the sentence. But some people are perfectly open about their motivations, which makes a context much clearer. It\u2019s hard for me to have much sympathy for those people.\nCreigh: Since we seem to be shifting toward the subject, I oppose so-called \u201chate crimes\u201d completely. They are nothing more than a tool to do a end run around double jeopardy. If a person murders someone for whatever reason, try that person for murder. If a person cold-cocks someone on the street, even if the thug does it because he doesn\u2019t like the victim\u2019s skin tone, try that person for assault and battery. And so on. Hate crime often is dragged out when there\u2019s not sufficient evidence, it appears, to get a conviction on the actual crime at hand. Absolutely no excuse for the hate-crime category.\nGot yourself a Gravatar, I see. You\u2019re a handsome devil.\nI don\u2019t always agree with you, but this guy. Brilliant and Canadian which makes it even better!\nhttps://longreads.com/2018/07/12/petersons-complaint/\nMs. Shoes: A quick glance at that, because that\u2019s all the time I have at the moment, indicates it\u2019s a typical leftist freak-out at the good professor\u2019s good sense.\nWhen will this guy say what he really thinks?\nA large range of topics, including Western women.\nWe need tens of thousands like him.\nRicardo: There are scads of videos of Peterson on YouTube. They are invariably a colossal hoot, and that\u2019s in a good way.\nThis PC garbage is being forced upon us by our \u201cdo as I say and not as I do\u201d groper of a PM.\nKarlos: How right you are.\nI love this guy. Thanks, Felipe, for introducing me to him a while back. He is a breath of fresh air in a swamp of PC, stench-filled lunacy.\nMark: Yep, he\u2019s a winner, never fails to entertain in spite of his not seeming to have much of a sense of humor, to put it mildly.\nPC, stench-filled lunacy. I like that.\nI love Jordan Peterson as he is a rare \u201ctruth teller,\u201d a term that\u2019s overused these days. But it definitely applies to him. And I can corroborate what he says about professional women. I worked in finance and money management for the better part of my career. The people who got ahead were those who were smart and willing to work insane (INSANE) hours. For 20 years, I worked at least 60 hours a week, and pulled many an 80-hour week too. And I had many, many smart, determined female colleagues who almost all dropped out to have families. And once they had families, almost none of them came back. The all realized what I realized in 2012, namely that all that money (and it was an insanely lucrative field) wasn\u2019t worth it after a while. Yeah, it\u2019s great getting the big bonus checks. But really, is your life better because you\u2019re now commuting in a Ferrari? You\u2019re still basically selling your soul, and you can\u2019t get it back. Women were faster to figure this out than men.\nAnd as you note, it\u2019s tough to argue with Dr. Peterson because he\u2019s incredibly well read, can marshal actual facts like no one else, and his mind isn\u2019t clouded by politics. One of his best videos is a speech he gives on the 12 rules. Look for it on YouTube; it\u2019s well worth watching.\nWhere we now work too little.\nKim: The feminista notion that women can have \u201cfulfilling careers\u201d and raise a family too is silly. It\u2019s one or the other. They should choose the family. Let the husband bust his butt for money. That\u2019s what they\u2019re there for.\nHonestly, I\u2019d love to play house-husband to a guy who wanted to go out and bash his head against the business world. While he was in the office, I could be remodeling a fabulous Victorian house. Unfortunately, life has never offered me such an option.\nKim: Maybe in your next life. Stuff happens.",

Kanye has been extolling Trump and saying his MAGA hat makes him feel like a superhero for months, but apparently today\u2019s visual of them together \u2013 a stark contrast from his stoic, post-mental breakdown appearance at the Trump Tower in January 2017 \u2013 was too jarring for many like T.I.

She and husband george clooney originally expected their first-born children to arrive by the first week of June. Because they are having twins, however, it's likely that the birth will happen earlier, according to Entertainment Tonight.\nThe soon-to-be parents are now comfortably settled in their England home where they plan to raise the twin babies. Amal Clooney has been laying low as her due date draws closer. She has not been seen with her husband at red carpet events in the last month, as well as in get-together and parties with friends.\nPreparing for the babies\nSources say the couple didn't plan the twin babies' nursery until Amal Clooney was six months into her pregnancy so as not to jinx anything.\nThey got help from a London-based interior designer, Ilse Crawford, to fix the room and infuse the nursery with \"holistic\" design elements based on the couple's choices. Some of the items were bought from a Paris boutique called Baudou, which were then shipped out to their Sonning home in England.\nE! News reports the Clooneys intend to be hands-on once the twin babies are born. They won't be hiring a full-time nanny and instead will only employ a night nurse to help the babies develop a sleep schedule. They also will get some help from Amal Clooney's mom, Baria Alamuddin.\nGeorge Clooney also expressed he's had some experience around kids, so he's ready for parenthood. He once joked he played a pediatrician on his former TV show \"ER\" and implied he already got the training on baby feeding, diaper changing and attending to his children's needs.\nAfter the baby's birth\nAmal Clooney won't quit her job just because she has twin babies to raise. She plans to return to work as an international human rights lawyer six months after the babies' birth. She will, however, scale down her schedule at work because she's planning to do some of these at home as the kids grow. Apart from the nursery, the Clooneys also fixed and prepped up the new mom's home office.\nWhen George Clooney confirmed his wife's pregnancy in March he said that they have agreed as a couple to limit their travels. For Amal Clooney, this means opting not to go to dangerous sites in the Middle East and Africa as part of her work. It's unclear if they will stick to this same plan for the long haul.\nThe Clooneys did not reveal the gender of their twin babies just yet. George Clooney's mom, however, dished they will have a boy and a girl. Family friend Cindy Crawford also said the same thing.",

        "raw_content": "Here's why Jon Snow now has the best claim to the Iron Throne\nWho has the most legitimate claim to the throne? Everything is changed after 'Game of Thrones' season 7 episode 5!\nMatteo Valerio Carriero\n'Game of Thrones' intro in 'True Detective' style is up on YouTube 'GOT' Season 8 Filming: Juicy spoilers about Jon, Dany and Winterfell What Ned whispered before his death was revealed by Sean Bean\nAfter \"Game of Thrones\" season 7 episode 5, \"Eastwatch,\" we know that Rhaegar Targaryen annulled his marriage to Elia Martell and remarried somewhere in Dorne. This is huge: Jon Snow might just have a legitimate claim to the Iron Throne. He's not a bastard after all! He's a true and legitimate Targaryen, as Drogon sniffed out during the episode in his epic first meeting with the King in the North.\nIn \"Eastwatch,\" during a Samwell scene, Gilly uncovered information from an old book, a story about how High Septon Maynard had issued an annulment for Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and remarried him to someone who is clearly Lyanna Stark. Sam was so concerned about other matters that he didn't notice the precious information, but it's very likely that Gilly took the book with her when she left Oldtown with Samwell and little Sam.\nThe secret marriage between Rhaegar and Lyanna means that Jon is not only the legitimate son of Rhaegar Targaryen, he's also his only living son. Which means that Jon has a more legitimate claim to the Iron Throne than his aunt, Daenerys!\nWhat about Dany and Gendry?\nIn medieval times, the legitimate heirs to the rulers were in most cases the closest male lineage, which means that the firstborn son comes before the former ruler's brothers and sisters. Daenerys' claim to the throne is being next in line to Jon. Gendry, on the other side, is a bastard. Fans love him, and he's actually a nice guy, but no one legitimized him, therefore his claim is quite weak.\nBeing the male heir of Aerys II Targaryen (we should point out that before Robert's Rebellion the throne belonged to the Targaryens for centuries), Jon has the best claim to the Iron Throne. Not that he wants that kind of responsibility, but sooner or later he's going to find out the truth about his parentage, and it will be very interesting to see how Jon and Daenerys will react to the news.\nWho is going to tell Jon about his parents?\nTwo persons in Westeros could tell Jon the truth about Rhaegar and Lyanna, and they are Samwell Tarly (who owns the book in which High Septon Maynard registered the secret wedding) and Bran Stark, who may have already discovered the truth about Jon during one of his time travels.\nDon't forget! The sixth episode of \"Game of Thrones\" season 7 airs on August 20, on HBO. At the moment, there is no title or synopsis available for the next episode of the show.",

        "raw_content": "Trump\u2019s Tax Cut Will Upset the Way Deals Are Made\nEntertainment companies and individuals should brace themselves for the new law's unintended consequences\nBy Brad Cohen\nCREDIT: Chris Gash for Variety\nThe legislation known as the Tax Cut and Jobs Act, along with its accompanying proposed Treasury Regulations, has already had a significant impact on the entertainment industry. While not every effect is known, several unintended consequences are immediately apparent.\nSexual Harassment: The Trifecta From Hell\nThe Tax Act re-victimizes individuals who have suffered sexual harassment. First, it prevents companies settling sexual harassment claims from deducting the cost of settlements if they are subject to a nondisclosure agreement. Anecdotal evidence suggests that companies will continue to include nondisclosure clauses in their settlement agreements, likely leading them to settle claims for less \u2014 i.e., the lost deduction may end up coming out of victims\u2019 pockets.\nSecond, victims of sexual harassment can no longer deduct their legal expenses in non-physical contact sexual harassment disputes, because of the elimination of miscellaneous itemized deductions. This new limitation will significantly reduce the amount victims will ultimately receive on an after-tax basis.\nFinally, state and local taxes, including property taxes, are now only deductible up to $10,000. So, victims will likely have to pay the full amount of federal AND state income taxes due on the entire settlement, with no federal income tax relief for state income taxes paid.\nAs an illustration, assume a company would have previously been willing to settle a non-physical contact sexual harassment dispute with a California resident for $1.2 million. Now the company may only be willing settle for $1 million because it cannot deduct the settlement amount from its federal income taxes.\nIt is common in these cases for attorneys to charge a 40% contingency fee. On a million-dollar award, the victim will pay the attorney $400,000, with $600,000 left before taxes. Since the victim\u2019s legal fees are non-deductible, the victim will pay taxes on the entire $1 million, not just the $600,000. Furthermore, since state and local taxes are no longer deductible (above $10,000), the victim\u2019s combined tax rate could be approximately 50% (37% federal and 13.3% California) on the entire $1 million.\nSo, after paying the attorney $400,000 in fees and federal and state governments $500,000 in taxes, the victim will end up with a mere $100,000 out of what might have been a $1.2 million settlement. Ouch.\nSpago No, Craft Services Yes\nPrior to the Tax Act, taxpayers could generally deduct 50% of the cost of meals and entertainment spent on existing or potential clients. Under the Tax Act, no entertainment expenses are deductible and meals may, under certain circumstances, be considered entertainment expenses.\nThus, it is unclear to what extent expenses for meals with potential or existing clients will be deductible. Until the IRS or Treasury issues further guidance on whether these meals are still eligible for the 50% deduction, taxpayers are advised to ensure that they have a reasonable expectation of deriving income or other business from the meeting, that business is actually conducted at the meal, the meals are furnished at a restaurant (rather than an entertainment venue, such as a sporting event), and that such meals are not lavish or extravagant. The IRS may still issue guidance denying the deductibility of such expenses.\nOther types of meal expenses may still be partially or fully deductible. For example, office holiday parties and meals provided in-house for the convenience of the employer, such as craft services on set, are still (wholly or partially) deductible.\n20% Deduction for Pass-Throughs: Here Come the Robots\nFiring employees may produce a greater deduction. The new Section 199A provides pass-through entities \u2014 such as limited liability corporations, Sub Chapter S corporations, partnerships and sole proprietorships \u2014 with a 20% deduction for their qualified business income. To accommodate businesses with little or no wages, such as real estate companies, the drafters of the Tax Act added an alternative test that produced a maximum deduction for companies if they had sufficient basis in assets in the company.\nThis may have unintentionally created an incentive for companies to increase their qualified business income by firing employees and purchasing tangible assets, i.e., robots to perform the work employees could have performed, to increase the allowable pass-through deduction.\nThe definition of \u201cperforming artist\u201d excludes many from deduction benefits. Not all taxpayers are eligible for the pass-through deduction. Specifically, the section excludes income above certain threshold levels for specified service trades or businesses, such as the performing arts. Historically, the term performing arts referred to individuals in front of the camera \u2014 actors, musicians, etc. \u2014 in contrast with behind the camera \u2014 directors, producers, etc. Proposed Treasury regulations have inappropriately broadened the definition to include directors and similar job functions. As a result of this expansion, and contrary to the historical definition of performing arts, directors \u2014 and people in comparable positions \u2014 may have their pass-through deductions reduced or eliminated.\nLoan-Outs Are In\nWith the elimination of the miscellaneous itemized deductions for unreimbursed business expenses, many people are going to lose the ability to deduct various expenses including fees for accountants, lawyers, personal managers, business managers, agents and the like. Many of these deductions can be achieved at the corporate level. For this reason, loan-out corporations, which can hire artists as employees in order to protect their assets, are going to be more important than ever.\nWho are the overall winners and losers of this new legislation? Winners include large corporations and their shareholders, including studios and networks, the ultra-wealthy, individuals and business entities whose income is largely derived from capital or capital expenditures, and residents of red states.\nLosers include people who earn their income through the provision of services, particularly in specified service trades or businesses, middle and working classes, and residents of blue states. It remains to be seen whether the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will, in fact, end up creating any new jobs or increased wages.\nBrad Cohen is a partner at Jeffer Mangels Butler & Mitchell.",

In his latest racist column, Derbyshire calls 12 Years a Slave \u201cAbolitionist Porn\u201d and chides the film for not including what he sees as the happier instances of slavery, such as one slaveholder who only doled out beatings \u201conce in a while.\u201d\n\u201cPlainly there was more to American race slavery that white masters brutalizing resentful Negroes,\u201d Derbyshire writes. \u201cSlavery is more irksome to some than to others; and freedom can be irksome, too.\u201d\nDerbyshire compares slavery in the US to the communist system in China, saying that \u201cwhile there was much grumbling, and some scattered seething rebelliousness, most Chinese got along with the system. A lot of people were very happy with it.\u201d\n\u201cIn the matter of slavery, though, I already feel sure that the shallow good North, bad South simplicities of Abolitionist Porn and popular perception bear little relation to the thorny tangles of reality,\u201d he concludes.[More]\nDon't bother clicking on the \"More\" button\u2014it's mostly chunks of Derb's column [John Derbyshire On Abolitionist Porn And Antebellum Economics] with all the links gone. I don't know why people do that.\nAs for the \"poor, persecuted and maligned slave-owners\", they were, as we've repeatedly said, the opposite of poor. Like today's tech and and agribusiness lobbies, they were incredibly rich, and were organized in a lobby known to their opponents as \"The Slave Power.\"\nMaligned? Of course they were, there was a whole slave-owner maligning industry, with newspapers and societies dedicated to maligning them. No doubt some of it was deserved, but there were also a lot of lies. And finally \"persecuted\"\u2014I suppose that's true, too, with hundreds of thousands dead in the Civil War, and Atlanta burned to the ground.\nI'm perfectly willing to admit that slaveowning was a Bad Thing, but that doesn't make lying about it a Good Thing.\nMovie critic James Bowman who did see the movie, writes\nIf ever in slavery\u2019s 250 year history in North America there were a kind master or a contented slave, as in the nature of things there must have been, here and there, we may be sure that [Director Steve] McQueen does not want us to hear about it. This, in turn, surely means that his view of the history of the American South is as partial and one-sided as that of the hated Gone With the Wind. That professional historians among others insist on calling such propaganda \"truth\" and \"reality\" and condemning anyone who suggests truth and reality might be more complicated than that is one measure of the politicization of historical scholarship in our time \u2014 to a level, perhaps, rivaling even that of film studies.\nThe people who make these movies don't hate the slaveowners of the past, they hate white people now.",

        "raw_content": "18 Most Harmful Cosmetic Ingredients: Lets Talk About Polyethylene Glycol\nPolyethylene Glycol (PEG) is a polymer of ethylene oxide, another petroleum based glycol that is damaging to the skin and entire body.\nPEG stands for polyethylene glycol, used in cosmetics as a skin conditioner and emulsifier. It usually is followed by a number (e.g. PEG-100). The number represents the approximate molecular weight of that compound. Typically, cosmetics use PEGs with smaller molecular weights. The lower the molecular weight, the easier it is for the compound to penetrate the skin.\nAccording to the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) committee, PEGs are often contaminated with pollutants including ethylene oxide, dioxane, polycyclic aromatic compounds and heavy metals including arsenic, cadmium, lead, nickel, cobalt and iron. This not only damages skin, it counteracts the skins defense mechanisms against antimicrobials. By increasing skin permeability and allowing pollutants to enter the body through the skin\u2019s surface, we are susceptible to a variety of issues that arise from chemical contamination.\nOn the skin itself, PEGs can cause an opposite response to the goal of most skincare products. It can create skin rashes and contact dermatitis, and can rob the skin of its natural moisture.\nNot all PEGs will have 1,4 dioxane, but, according to a report in the International Journal of Toxicology by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) committee, impurities found in various PEG compounds include ethylene oxide, 1,4-dioxane, polycyclic aromatic compounds and heavy metals such as lead, iron, cobalt, nickel, cadmium and arsenic. PEGs are hard to avoid and they turn up in very many skincare problems.\nHealth Concerns of the Ingredient Overall Hazard is low to moderate. Other high concerns: contamination concerns, other moderate concerns: organ system toxicity (non reproductive).\nhttps://www.truthinaging.com\nhttp://www.cosmeticsinfo.org",

One of the most important aspects in choosing a good ducted heating system to suit your home is to properly calculate the area to be heated for the entire house to determine the correct size of the unit. It is important in a colder climate that a good quality ducting in your ceiling or under your floors is used; it should possess a higher insulation value especially in inland areas in the south. This selection will ensure a greater efficiency of your system.\nOverall, the choice of which ducted heating brand to choose is entirely up to the buyer. The selected heat pump unit should be efficient as well as cost effective, which is why it\u2019s important to look at the extra features for each separate brand and decide which would be preferable based on individual needs. Once the brand has been chosen, all that\u2019s left is to have the heating installed and enjoy the fantastic benefits that come with it.\nWarm and Cool offers the following ducted heat pump brands - Carrier, Toshiba, Panasonic and Mitsubishi. These are all reputable brands each having their own character and uniqueness. Some of the brands are packed with features to make your home comfortable whether heating or cooling ensuring it will be a pleasurable experience plus economic to operate.\nOther brands can be supplied if requested.\nA Ducted Heating System is an Investment That Keeps On Giving\nOnce you have switched to a ducted heating system, you won\u2019t ever want to go back. It is all about providing comfort in your home at a cost you can afford.\nWe can also bring in some filtered air to keep your home feeling fresh.\nIn new homes we generally require at least one attic truss for ceiling installations. Ducted heating systems can also be installed under the floor, where sufficient space is often available.\nContact Warm and Cool today and we\u2019ll explain why a ducted heating system is a cost-effective, comfortable and environmentally-friendly option.",

One special aspect of D-B graduation is the annual participation of teachers and administrators from other KCS schools who take part in the ceremony. By including staff from pre-k, elementary, middle schools, Cora Cox Academy, D-B EXCEL, and D-B, we signify that we are all vested in the education of KCS students and take district-wide ownership of supporting student success.

This week, the Saturday Six celebrates this year\u2019s graduates by sharing some of the fantastic accomplishments of the Class of 2017.\nThis year\u2019s class contained four National Merit Semi-finalists, four National Merit Commended Students, and a Presidential Scholar finalist\u2026 one of the highest national honors attainable by a high school student!\nAcademically, this is one of the most successful classes to ever graduate from D-B.

This year\u2019s band class is recognized by many to have just completed one of, if not the most successful four year careers for a high school band.\nMembers of this year\u2019s class helped earn the D-B Air Force Junior ROTC program, for the 10th consecutive year, the designation of Unit of Distinction. Additionally, the year\u2019s class contains four appointments to United States Service Academies, with several additional commitments to the US Armed Services.\nAnd to top it all off, this year\u2019s graduating class has currently been offered in excess of $15 million in scholarship funds, a record amount for a D-B class.

        "raw_content": "9 Takeaways from the Digital News Report 2018\nDigital Top Stories\nDamian Radcliffe rounds up the key takeaways from the seventh Digital News Report\nToday sees the publication of the seventh Digital News Report from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. This annual study features detailed findings from a sample of more than 74,000 digital news consumers in 37 different countries around the world.\nThe research conclusions are relevant to a wide range of publishers, not just those in the news business. They touch on issues such as trust in brands, the rise of fake news, the emergence of messaging apps and audio strategies, as well as changing platform use and evolving business models.\nWhat\u2019s New in Publishing was given a sneak preview of the full 140 page report, enabling us to determine our key takeaways from the latest study. Here\u2019s what we think you need to know.\n1: Facebook for news is down, as overall usage plateaus.\nA key headline from the 2018 study is the decline of social networks \u2013 and in particular Facebook \u2013 as a source for news.\nWith fieldwork for the study being undertaken at the end of January/start of February 2018, this pre-dates much of the Cambridge Analytica fallout which befell the network earlier in the year.\nInstead, changes in Facebook\u2019s algorithm, concerns over Fake News and the migration of online time to other platforms, all look to be playing a role.\nFacebook\u2019s decline as a news source can be seen across a number of markets. Although there are exceptions, like Malaysia (+6%) and the Czech Republic (+10%) \u201caverage news usage for Facebook has fallen from 42% in 2016 to 36% today,\u201d the report authors note.\nIn the United States, where Facebook has 240 million users, \u201cnews consumption via Facebook is down 9 percentage points in the United States and 20 points with younger groups.\u201d\n2: Facebook\u2019s news video reach remains significant.\nHowever, publishers shouldn\u2019t throw the Facebook baby out with the digital news bathwater just yet.\nDespite this stagnation, the study notes the continued popularity of news video consumption on sites like Facebook and YouTube, with these figures dwarfing news video viewing on publisher\u2019s own sites.\n\u201cThe majority of news video is now consumed offsite (51%). Facebook alone (33%) accounts for as much video consumption as all news websites put together (33%).\u201d\n3: Online video isn\u2019t everyone\u2019s cup of tea.\nWith the \u201cpivot to video\u201d mantra now banished to the media strategy graveyard at many organizations, it\u2019s clear that online video hasn\u2019t had the impact that many publishers expected.\nConsumption has grown \u2013 as social video and new native formats have continued to emerge and evolve \u2013 but that hasn\u2019t necessarily translated into ad dollars or stickiness.\nMoreover, Reuters observe how \u201can even larger number (35%) reject news video entirely; that figure rises to more than six in ten in the UK (62%) and over half of our German sample (56%).\u201d\nThis reiterates a theme from previous reports (and one that has typically been overlooked by most analysts) which stresses the continued text based preferences for many online news consumers.\n\u201cThere have been some changes over time (especially in the US and Spain),\u201d the researchers write, \u201cbut these have been modest given the increase in exposure to video through social media.\u201d\n4: As Facebook falters, other social platforms are growing.\nConversely, usage of other platforms for news \u2013 and other purposes \u2013 is growing. Albeit from a lower user base.\nAs you might expect, Twitter continues to punch higher than other social networks in terms of overall usage vs. news consumption ratio, suggesting plenty of scope for growth on platforms like Instagram, Snapchat and different messaging apps.\nIn some markets, these audiences are already significant. \u201cWhatsApp use for news has almost tripled since 2014,\u201d the study states, \u201cand has overtaken Twitter in importance in many countries.\u201d\n\u201cBut,\u201d they caution, \u201cthis conceals wide variations from 54% in Malaysia (+3) and 48% in Brazil (+2) to 14% in Germany (+2) and just 4% in the United States (+1).\u201d\nUnderstanding local markets and being active in the right places is obviously key for publishers.\n5: \u201cFake News\u201d concerns offer an opportunity for \u201ctrusted\u201d brands.\nDiscussion about the impact of \u201cFake News\u201d is increasingly universal. More than half of Reuters\u2019 sample (54%) said they are concerned about whether news is real or \u2018fake\u2019 on the internet.\nPolarised political environments, appear to increase this fear, as witnessed in Brazil (85%), Spain (69%), and the USA (64%).\nMore widely, the report finds that just 23% of the study\u2019s sample trusts news on social media, behind search (34%), and the wider news media (44%). Trust levels are highest, at 51%, for sources that people use themselves.\nIt\u2019s this trust that publishers and brands will want to harness as 2018\u2019s pivot to paywall continue to gather pace, doubling-down on relationships with existing users and encouraging existing consumers to embrace opportunities afforded by subscription packages and membership models.\n6: Use of ad-blockers is rising in many markets.\nThe need for publishers, and other news brands, to migrate away from traditional online advertising-driven models is further reinforced by findings around use of ad-blockers.\n\u201cAfter a pause in growth last year,\u201d the study notes, \u201cthe use of ad-blockers is on the rise again, alongside privacy browser extensions that allow specific advertisers to be blocked.\u201d\nAcross the research sample, more than a quarter now block on any device (27%).\nAgain, it should be noted that this figure masks a broad range, bookended by 42% of digital news users in Greece, through to 13% in South Korea at the other end of the spectrum. But, the trend in several major markets is clear.\n7: Some audiences are more willing to pay for content.\nWhile the majority of digital audiences continue to consume online news content for free (from advertising-led sites such as Yahoo! or public service providers like the BBC) there are some encouraging signs that (some) audiences are willing to pay for (some) content.\nLongitudinal data demonstrates a continued, gradual, willingness to pay in many Nordic countries, as well as an on-going \u201cTrump bump\u201d in the United States.\nThis is especially true among more \u201cnews literate\u201d consumers \u2013 those who, in part, better understand the financial travails being faced by the industry \u2013 as well as American news audiences who are likely to define their political leanings as be to the left or centre.\n8: Look to the Nordic countries for subscription success stories.\nThe report comments how nations such as Norway, Sweden and Finland \u201chave a small number of publishers who are relentlessly pursuing a variety of paywall strategies.\u201d\n\u201cThey have the added benefit of coming from wealthy societies that value news,\u201d they comment, and \u201chave a strong subscription tradition.\u201d \u201cLanguage and the small size of their market protects them from foreign competition,\u201d they add.\nSuccess stories highlighted in the study include: Norwegian based AftenPosten\u2019s hybrid paywall model, which reached 100,000 digital subscribers after just two years in December 2017, as well as Sweden\u2019s leading daily Dagens Nyheter (DN). DN enjoys more than 120,000 digital subscribers, the average age of whom is 20 years younger than their print readership.\n\u201cNorwegian publishers are even able to charge for local news,\u201d the report exclaims, citing the efforts of the Amedia group. According to their website, \u201cour titles have a daily audience of 1,8 million readers and users. Most of the newspapers have number one positions in their local community.\u201d\nThe Digital News Report comments that, with \u201cabout 60 local newspapers and websites,\u201d they have \u201c 160,000 digital subscribers, up 45% on last year.\u201d\n\u201cAdjusting for population size, this would be the equivalent of Trinity Mirror in the UK selling 2m digital subscriptions \u2013 or 10m for Gannett in the United States,\u201d they write.\n9: Audio\u2019s second coming.\nFor the first time, this year\u2019s study touches on podcasts, a format which has considerable potential for a wide range of content creators.\nOverall, a third of the Digital News Report\u2019s entire sample (34%) listens to a podcast at least monthly, with young people leading the charge. There are wide variations in usage patterns, with factors such as commuting times, the popularity of existing radio habits and range of content, all being potential drivers for these variances.\nAlongside this, highlighting a trend captured for the first time last year, voice-activated digital assistants such as Google Home and Amazon Echo and Google Home continue to see rapid growth.\n\u201cUsage has more than doubled in the United States, Germany, and the UK with around half of those who have such devices using them for news and information,\u201d the report says.\nAlthough these devices tend to be used to listen to music, or for functional information (such as weather, facts and info etc.) they can also be used for news alerts/briefings and podcast playback.\nAs a result, a number of news organisations are experimenting with products and services for these devices. Whether this upward curve will continue into 2019 remains to be seen, but for now, smart speakers \u2013 and audio in general \u2013 are a trend to watch.\nFor more information visit www.digitalnewsreport.org.\nfolder_openTagged in: audio, social media, subscriptions, Trends\nPrevious Post Previous Post After Facebook, what\u2019s next?

        "raw_content": "From Albany, New York, pop-punk band State Champs have grown their career by ten fold and it\u2019s amazing to see how much they\u2019ve achieved since making music. I remember stumbling upon their first record The Finer Things and discovering the pop-punk stars in the making. While it hasn\u2019t been easy being constantly on the road and figuring out life through music, their passion for what they do is evident in their latest documentary (directed by Elliot Ingham), Around The World And Back. Not only is it titled the same as their sophomore record, it showcases the journey the five-piece have gone through and the reality of how they came to being a well-renowned name in the pop-punk scene.\nLead singer Derek Discanio explains the meaning of their sophomore record at the start of the documentary saying, \u201cWhen it came time to writing this new record, we were just always on the road. So, we didn\u2019t know what it was like to really write a whole album while we were touring, which is where the idea of the album comes.\u201d\nHe continues. \u201cWe didn\u2019t want to make a concept album \u2013 that\u2019s far from what Around The World And Back is, but the fact that we literally were around the world while we were getting things together, demoing songs. I was writing lyrics in Australia, there\u2019s ones I look back \u2013 there\u2019s lyrics where I remember exactly where I wrote that line. Whether it was in Australia or Japan or the UK or something, that\u2019s what\u2019s kinda cool. It almost seems kind of cheesy. We\u2019re literally calling it Around The World And Back because we were around the world and back.\u201d\nYou can watch the full DVD, which is now streaming via the Pure Noise Records YouTube:\nTag: Around The World And Back DVD, Pure Noise Records, State Champs\nPrevious: Previous post: Bandcamp Introduces New App For Artists and Labels\nNext: Next post: Wholesome Listen: Loote \u2013 \u201cOut Of My Head\u201d",

The Reich became understood as deriving its authority and sovereignty entirely from a continuing unitary German 'national people'; with that authority and sovereignty being exercised at any one time over a unitary German 'state territory' with variable boundaries and extent. Although commonly translated as \"German Empire\", the word Reich here better translates as \"realm\", in that the term does not in itself have monarchical connotations. The word Kaiserreich is applied to denote an empire with an emperor; hence the German Empire of 1871\u20131918 is termed Deutsches Kaiserreich in standard works of reference. From 1943 to 1945, the official name of Germany became \u2013 but was not formally proclaimed \u2013 Gro\u00dfdeutsches Reich on account of the further German peoples and associated territories annexed into the state's administration during and before the Second World War.\nA nation state is a state in which the great majority shares the same culture and is conscious of it. The nation state is an ideal in which cultural boundaries match up with political ones. According to one definition, \"a nation state is a sovereign state of which most of its subjects are united also by factors which defined a nation such as language or common descent.\" It is a more precise concept than \"country\", since a country does not need to have a predominant ethnic group.\nIt was founded in 1871 when the south German states, except for Austria, joined the North German Confederation. On 1 January 1871, the new constitution came into force that changed the name of the federal state and introduced the title of emperor for Wilhelm I, King of Prussia from the House of Hohenzollern. [11] Berlin remained its capital, and Otto von Bismarck remained Chancellor, the head of government. As these events occurred, the Prussian-led North German Confederation and its southern German allies were still engaged in the Franco-Prussian War.\nThe North German Confederation was the German federal state which existed from July 1867 to December 1870. Some historians also use the name for the alliance of 22 German states formed on 18 August 1866. In 1870\u20131871, the south German states of Baden, Hesse-Darmstadt, W\u00fcrttemberg and Bavaria joined the country. On 1 January 1871, the country adopted a new constitution, which was written under the title of a new \"German Confederation\" but already gave it the name \"German Empire\" in the preamble and article 11. As the state system largely remained the same in the German Empire, the North German Confederation continues as the German nation state which still exists.\nThe Constitution of the German Empire was the basic law of the German Empire of 1871-1918, from 16 April 1871, coming into effect on 4 May 1871. German historians often refer to it as Bismarck's imperial constitution, in German the Bismarcksche Reichsverfassung (BRV).\nThe House of Hohenzollern[\u02c8ho\u02d0\u0259nts\u0254l\u0250n] is a German dynasty of former princes, electors, kings and emperors of Hohenzollern, Brandenburg, Prussia, the German Empire, and Romania. The family arose in the area around the town of Hechingen in Swabia during the 11th century and took their name from Hohenzollern Castle. The first ancestors of the Hohenzollerns were mentioned in 1061.\nA dynasty is a sequence of rulers from the same family, usually in the context of a feudal or monarchical system, but sometimes also appearing in elective republics. Alternative terms for \"dynasty\" may include \"house\", \"family\" and \"clan\", among others. The longest-surviving dynasty in the world is the Imperial House of Japan, otherwise known as the Yamato dynasty, whose reign is traditionally dated to 660 BC.\nA monarchy is a form of government in which a group, generally a group of people representing a dynasty (aristocracy), embodies the country's national identity and its head, the monarch, exercises the role of supreme sovereignty. The actual power of the monarch may vary from purely symbolic, to partial and restricted, to completely autocratic. Traditionally the monarch's post is inherited and lasts until death or abdication. In contrast, elective monarchies require the monarch to be elected. Both types have further variations as there are widely divergent structures and traditions defining monarchy. For example, in some elected monarchies only pedigrees are taken into account for eligibility of the next ruler, whereas many hereditary monarchies impose requirements regarding the religion, age, gender, mental capacity, etc. Occasionally this might create a situation of rival claimants whose legitimacy is subject to effective election. There have been cases where the term of a monarch's reign is either fixed in years or continues until certain goals are achieved: an invasion being repulsed, for instance.\nA grand duchy is a country or territory whose official head of state or ruler is a monarch bearing the title of grand duke or grand duchess.\nAfter 1850, the states of Germany had rapidly become industrialized, with particular strengths in coal, iron (and later steel), chemicals, and railways. In 1871, Germany had a population of 41 million people; by 1913, this had increased to 68 million. A heavily rural collection of states in 1815, the now united Germany became predominantly urban. [12] During its 47 years of existence, the German Empire was an industrial, technological, and scientific giant, gaining more Nobel Prizes in science than any other country. [13] By 1900, Germany was the largest economy in Europe, surpassing the United Kingdom, as well as the second-largest in the world, behind only the United States. [14]\nIndustrialisation is the period of social and economic change that transforms a human group from an agrarian society into an industrial society, involving the extensive re-organisation of an economy for the purpose of manufacturing.\nCoal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, formed as rock strata called coal seams. Coal is mostly carbon with variable amounts of other elements; chiefly hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen. Coal is formed if dead plant matter decays into peat and over millions of years the heat and pressure of deep burial converts the peat into coal.\nIron is a chemical element with symbol Fe and atomic number 26. It is a metal in the first transition series. It is by mass the most common element on Earth, forming much of Earth's outer and inner core. It is the fourth most common element in the Earth's crust. Its abundance in rocky planets like Earth is due to its abundant production by fusion in high-mass stars, where it is the last element to be produced with release of energy before the violent collapse of a supernova, which scatters the iron into space.\nFrom 1867 to 1878/9, Otto von Bismarck's tenure as the first and to this day longest reigning Chancellor was marked by relative liberalism, but it became more conservative afterwards. Broad reforms and the Kulturkampf marked his period in the office. Late in Bismarck's chancellorship and in spite of his personal opposition, Germany became involved in colonialism. Claiming much of the leftover territory that was yet unclaimed in the Scramble for Africa, it managed to build the third-largest colonial empire after the British and the French ones. [15] As a colonial state, it sometimes clashed with other European powers, especially the British Empire.\nKulturkampf is a German term referring to the conflict between the German imperial government and the Roman Catholic Church from about 1872 to 1886, predominantly over the control of educational and ecclesiastical appointments. More rarely, the term is used by extension to refer to the power struggles between emerging constitutional democratic nation states and the Roman Catholic Church over the place and role of religion in modern polity, usually in connection with secularization campaigns.\nThe German colonial empire constituted the overseas colonies, dependencies and territories of Imperial Germany. The chancellor of this time period was Otto von Bismarck. Short-lived attempts of colonization by individual German states had occurred in preceding centuries, but crucial colonial efforts only began in 1884 with the Scramble for Africa. Claiming much of the left-over colonies that were yet unclaimed in the Scramble of Africa, Germany managed to build the third largest colonial empire after the British and the French, at the time. Germany lost control when World War I began in 1914 and its colonies were seized by its enemies in the first weeks of the war. However some military units held out for a while longer: German South West Africa surrendered in 1915, Kamerun in 1916 and German East Africa only in 1918 at the end of the war. Germany's colonial empire was officially confiscated with the Treaty of Versailles after Germany's defeat in the war and the various units became League of Nations mandates under the supervision of one of the victorious powers.\nGermany became a great power, boasting a rapidly developing rail network, the world's strongest army, and a fast-growing industrial base. [16] In less than a decade, its navy became second only to Britain's Royal Navy. After the removal of Otto von Bismarck by Wilhelm II in 1890, the Empire embarked on Weltpolitik \u2013 a bellicose new course that ultimately contributed to the outbreak of World War I. In addition, Bismarck's successors were incapable of maintaining their predecessor's complex, shifting, and overlapping alliances which had kept Germany from being diplomatically isolated. This period was marked by various factors influencing the Emperor's decisions, which were often perceived as contradictory or unpredictable by the public. In 1879, the German Empire consolidated the Dual Alliance with Austria-Hungary, followed by the Triple Alliance with Italy in 1882. It also retained strong diplomatic ties to the Ottoman Empire. When the great crisis of 1914 arrived, Italy left the alliance and the Ottoman Empire formally allied with Germany.\nThe Imperial German Navy was the navy created at the time of the formation of the German Empire. It existed between 1871 and 1919, growing out of the small Prussian Navy, which primarily had the mission of coastal defence. Kaiser Wilhelm II greatly expanded the navy, and enlarged its mission. The key leader was Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz, who greatly expanded the size and quality of the navy, while adopting the sea power theories of American strategist Alfred Thayer Mahan. The result was a naval arms race with Britain as the German navy grew to become one of the greatest maritime forces in the world, second only to the Royal Navy. The German surface navy proved ineffective during World War I; its only major engagement, the Battle of Jutland, was indecisive. However, the submarine fleet was greatly expanded and posed a major threat to the British supply system. The Imperial Navy's main ships were turned over to the Allies, but were sunk at Scapa Flow in 1919 by German crews.\nGreat Britain is an island in the North Atlantic Ocean off the northwest coast of continental Europe. With an area of 209,331 km2 (80,823 sq mi), it is the largest of the British Isles, the largest European island, and the ninth-largest island in the world. In 2011, Great Britain had a population of about 61 million people, making it the world's third-most populous island after Java in Indonesia and Honshu in Japan. The island of Ireland is situated to the west of Great Britain, and together these islands, along with over 1,000 smaller surrounding islands, form the British Isles archipelago.\nThe high command under Paul von Hindenburg and Erich Ludendorff increasingly controlled the country, but in October after the failed offensive in spring 1918, the German armies were in retreat, allies Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire had collapsed, and Bulgaria had surrendered. The Empire collapsed in the November 1918 Revolution with the abdications of its monarchs. This left a postwar federal republic and a devastated and unsatisfied populace, which later led to the rise of Adolf Hitler and Nazism. [ citation needed ]\nThe German Confederation had been created by an act of the Congress of Vienna on 8 June 1815 as a result of the Napoleonic Wars, after being alluded to in Article 6 of the 1814 Treaty of Paris. [17]\nGerman nationalism rapidly shifted from its liberal and democratic character in 1848, called Pan-Germanism, to Prussian prime minister Otto von Bismarck's pragmatic Realpolitik . Bismarck sought to extend Hohenzollern hegemony throughout the German states; to do so meant unification of the German states and the exclusion of Prussia's main German rival, Austria, from the subsequent German Empire. He envisioned a conservative, Prussian-dominated Germany. Three wars led to military successes and helped to persuade German people to do this: the Second Schleswig War against Denmark in 1864, the Austro-Prussian War in 1866, and the Franco-Prussian War against France in 1870\u201371.\nThe German Confederation ended as a result of the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 between the constituent Confederation entities of the Austrian Empire and its allies on one side and the Kingdom of Prussia and its allies on the other. The war resulted in the partial replacement of the Confederation in 1867 by a North German Confederation, comprising the 22 states north of the Main. The patriotic fervour generated by the Franco-Prussian War overwhelmed the remaining opposition to a unified Germany (aside from Austria) in the four states south of the Main and during November 1870 they joined the North German Confederation by treaty. [18]\nOn 10 December 1870, the North German Confederation Reichstag renamed the Confederation the \"German Empire\" and gave the title of German Emperor to William I, the King of Prussia, as Bundespr\u00e4sidium of the Confederation. [19] The new constitution (Constitution of the German Confederation) and the title Emperor came into effect on 1 January 1871. During the Siege of Paris on 18 January 1871, William accepted to be proclaimed Emperor in the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles. [20]\nThe second German Constitution, adopted by the Reichstag on 14 April 1871 and proclaimed by the Emperor on 16 April, [20] was substantially based upon Bismarck's North German Constitution. The political system remained the same. The empire had a parliament called the Reichstag , which was elected by universal male suffrage. However, the original constituencies drawn in 1871 were never redrawn to reflect the growth of urban areas. As a result, by the time of the great expansion of German cities in the 1890s and 1900s, rural areas were grossly over-represented.\nLegislation also required the consent of the Bundesrat , the federal council of deputies from the 27 states. Executive power was vested in the emperor, or Kaiser, who was assisted by a chancellor responsible only to him. The emperor was given extensive powers by the constitution. He alone appointed and dismissed the chancellor (so in practice the emperor ruled the empire through the chancellor), was supreme commander-in-chief of the armed forces, and final arbiter of all foreign affairs, and could also disband the Reichstag to call for new elections. Officially, the chancellor was a one-man cabinet and was responsible for the conduct of all state affairs; in practice, the State Secretaries (bureaucratic top officials in charge of such fields as finance, war, foreign affairs, etc.) acted as unofficial portfolio ministers. The Reichstag had the power to pass, amend, or reject bills and to initiate legislation. However, as mentioned above, in practice the real power was vested in the emperor, who exercised it through his chancellor.\nWeimar Republic 1918\u20131933\nExpulsion of Germans 1944\u20131950\nCold War 1945\u20131990\nReunified Germany 1990\u2013present\nGermanyportal\ngranting social rights to enhance the integration of a hierarchical society, to forge a bond between workers and the state so as to strengthen the latter, to maintain traditional relations of authority between social and status groups, and to provide a countervailing power against the modernist forces of liberalism and socialism. [21]\nHe created the modern welfare state in Germany in the 1880s and enacted universal male suffrage in the new German Empire in 1871. [22] He became a great hero to German conservatives, who erected many monuments to his memory and tried to emulate his policies. [23]\nBismarck's post-1871 foreign policy was conservative and sought to preserve the balance of power in Europe. British historian Eric Hobsbawm concludes that he \"remained undisputed world champion at the game of multilateral diplomatic chess for almost twenty years after 1871, [devoting] himself exclusively, and successfully, to maintaining peace between the powers\". [24] This was a departure from his adventurous foreign policy for Prussia, where he favored strength and expansion, punctuating this by saying \"The great question of the age are not settled by speeches and majority votes - this was the error of 1848-49 - but by iron and blood.\" [25]\nBismarck's chief concern was that France would plot revenge after its defeat in the Franco-Prussian War. As the French lacked the strength to defeat Germany by themselves, they sought an alliance with Russia, which would trap Germany between the two in a war (as would ultimately happen in 1914). Bismarck wanted to prevent this at all costs and maintain friendly relations with the Russians, and thereby formed an alliance with them and Austria-Hungary, the Dreikaiserbund (League of Three Emperors) in 1881. The alliance was further cemented by a separate non-aggression pact with Russia called Reinsurance Treaty, which was signed in 1887. [26] During this period, individuals within the German military were advocating a preemptive strike against Russia, but Bismarck knew that such ideas were foolhardy. He once wrote that \"the most brilliant victories would not avail against the Russian nation, because of its climate, its desert, and its frugality, and having but one frontier to defend\", and because it would leave Germany with another bitter, resentful neighbour.\nMany consider Bismarck's foreign policy as a coherent system and partly responsible for the preservation of Europe's stability. [27] It was also marked by the need to balance circumspect defensiveness and the desire to be free from the constraints of its position as a major European power. [27] Unfortunately, Bismark's successors did not pursue his foreign policy legacy. For instance, Kaiser Wilhelm II, who dismissed the chancellor in 1890, let the treaty with Russia lapse in favor of Germany's alliance with Austria, which finally led to a stronger coalition-building between Russia and France. [26]\nBismarck secured a number of German colonial possessions during the 1880s in Africa and the Pacific, but he never considered an overseas colonial empire valuable due to fierce resistance to German colonial rule from the natives. Thus, Germany's colonies remained badly undeveloped. [28] However they excited the interest of the religious-minded, who supported an extensive network of missionaries.\nGermans had dreamed of colonial imperialism since 1848. [29] Bismarck began the process, and by 1884 had acquired German New Guinea. [30] By the 1890s, German colonial expansion in Asia and the Pacific (Kiauchau in China, Tientsin in China, the Marianas, the Caroline Islands, Samoa) led to frictions with the UK, Russia, Japan, and the US. The largest colonial enterprises were in Africa, [31] where the Herero Wars in what is now Namibia in 1906\u201307 resulted in the Herero and Namaqua Genocide [32]\nFor 30 years, Germany struggled against Britain to be Europe's leading industrial power. Representative of Germany's industry was the steel giant Krupp, whose first factory was built in Essen. By 1902, the factory alone became \"A great city with its own streets, its own police force, fire department and traffic laws. There are 150 kilometres of rail, 60 different factory buildings, 8,500 machine tools, seven electrical stations, 140 kilometres of underground cable and 46 overhead.\" [33]\nUnder Bismarck, Germany was a world innovator in building the welfare state. German workers enjoyed health, accident and maternity benefits, canteens, changing rooms and a national pension scheme. [34]\nLacking a technological base at first, the Germans imported their engineering and hardware from Britain, but quickly learned the skills needed to operate and expand the railways. In many cities, the new railway shops were the centres of technological awareness and training, so that by 1850, Germany was self-sufficient in meeting the demands of railroad construction, and the railways were a major impetus for the growth of the new steel industry. However, German unification in 1870 stimulated consolidation, nationalisation into state-owned companies, and further rapid growth. Unlike the situation in France, the goal was support of industrialisation, and so heavy lines crisscrossed the Ruhr and other industrial districts, and provided good connections to the major ports of Hamburg and Bremen. By 1880, Germany had 9,400 locomotives pulling 43,000 passengers and 30,000 tons of freight, and forged ahead of France. [35] The total length of German railroad tracks expanded from 21,000 kilometers in 1871 to 63,000 kilometres by 1913, establishing the largest rail network in the world after the United States, and effectively surpassing the 32,000 kilometers of rail that connected Britain in the same year. [36]\nTechnological progress during German industrialisation occurred in four waves: the railway wave (1877\u20131886), the dye wave (1887\u20131896), the chemical wave (1897\u20131902), and the wave of electrical engineering (1903\u20131918). [37] Since Germany industrialised later than Britain, it was able to model its factories after those of Britain, thus making more efficient use of its capital and avoiding legacy methods in its leap to the envelope of technology. Germany invested more heavily than the British in research, especially in chemistry, motors and electricity. Germany's dominance in physics and chemistry was such that one-third of all Nobel Prizes went to German inventors and researchers.\nThe German cartel system (known as Konzerne), being significantly concentrated, was able to make more efficient use of capital. Germany was not weighted down with an expensive worldwide empire that needed defense. Following Germany's annexation of Alsace-Lorraine in 1871, it absorbed parts of what had been France's industrial base. [38]\nBy 1900, the German chemical industry dominated the world market for synthetic dyes. [39] The three major firms BASF, [40] Bayer and Hoechst produced several hundred different dyes, along with the five smaller firms. In 1913, these eight firms produced almost 90% of the world supply of dyestuffs and sold about 80% of their production abroad. The three major firms had also integrated upstream into the production of essential raw materials and they began to expand into other areas of chemistry such as pharmaceuticals, photographic film, agricultural chemicals and electrochemicals. Top-level decision-making was in the hands of professional salaried managers; leading Chandler to call the German dye companies \"the world's first truly managerial industrial enterprises\". [41] There were many spinoffs from research\u2014such as the pharmaceutical industry, which emerged from chemical research. [42]\nBismarck announced there would be no more territorial additions to Germany in Europe, and his diplomacy after 1871 was focused on stabilizing the European system and preventing any wars. He succeeded, and only after his ouster in 1890 did the diplomatic tensions start rising again. [43]\nPrussia in 1871 included 16,000,000 Protestants, both Reformed and Lutheran, and 8,000,000 Catholics. Most people were generally segregated into their own religious worlds, living in rural districts or city neighbourhoods that were overwhelmingly of the same religion, and sending their children to separate public schools where their religion was taught. There was little interaction or intermarriage. On the whole, the Protestants had a higher social status, and the Catholics were more likely to be peasant farmers or unskilled or semiskilled industrial workers. In 1870, the Catholics formed their own political party, the Centre Party, which generally supported unification and most of Bismarck's policies. However, Bismarck distrusted parliamentary democracy in general and opposition parties in particular, especially when the Centre Party showed signs of gaining support among dissident elements such as the Polish Catholics in Silesia. A powerful intellectual force of the time was anti-Catholicism, led by the liberal intellectuals who formed a vital part of Bismarck's coalition. They saw the Catholic Church as a powerful force of reaction and anti-modernity, especially after the proclamation of papal infallibility in 1870, and the tightening control of the Vatican over the local bishops. [44]\nThe Kulturkampf launched by Bismarck 1871\u20131880 affected Prussia; although there were similar movements in Baden and Hesse, the rest of Germany was not affected. According to the new imperial constitution, the states were in charge of religious and educational affairs; they funded the Protestant and Catholic schools. In July 1871 Bismarck abolished the Catholic section of the Prussian Ministry of ecclesiastical and educational affairs, depriving Catholics of their voice at the highest level. The system of strict government supervision of schools was applied only in Catholic areas; the Protestant schools were left alone. [45]\nMuch more serious were the May laws of 1873. One made the appointment of any priest dependent on his attendance at a German university, as opposed to the seminaries that the Catholics typically used. Furthermore, all candidates for the ministry had to pass an examination in German culture before a state board which weeded out intransigent Catholics. Another provision gave the government a veto power over most church activities. A second law abolished the jurisdiction of the Vatican over the Catholic Church in Prussia; its authority was transferred to a government body controlled by Protestants. [46]\nNearly all German bishops, clergy, and laymen rejected the legality of the new laws, and were defiant in the face of heavier and heavier penalties and imprisonments imposed by Bismarck's government. By 1876, all the Prussian bishops were imprisoned or in exile, and a third of the Catholic parishes were without a priest. In the face of systematic defiance, the Bismarck government increased the penalties and its attacks, and were challenged in 1875 when a papal encyclical declared the whole ecclesiastical legislation of Prussia was invalid, and threatened to excommunicate any Catholic who obeyed. There was no violence, but the Catholics mobilized their support, set up numerous civic organizations, raised money to pay fines, and rallied behind their church and the Centre Party. The \"Old Catholic Church\", which rejected the First Vatican Council, attracted only a few thousand members. Bismarck, a devout pietistic Protestant, realized his Kulturkampf was backfiring when secular and socialist elements used the opportunity to attack all religion. In the long run, the most significant result was the mobilization of the Catholic voters, and their insistence on protecting their religious identity. In the elections of 1874, the Centre party doubled its popular vote, and became the second-largest party in the national parliament\u2014and remained a powerful force for the next 60 years, so that after Bismarck it became difficult to form a government without their support. [47] [48]\nBismarck's paternalistic programs won the support of German industry because its goals were to win the support of the working classes for the Empire and reduce the outflow of immigrants to America, where wages were higher but welfare did not exist. [34] [49] Bismarck further won the support of both industry and skilled workers by his high tariff policies, which protected profits and wages from American competition, although they alienated the liberal intellectuals who wanted free trade. [50]\nOne of the effects of the unification policies was the gradually increasing tendency to eliminate the use of non-German languages in public life, schools and academic settings with the intent of pressuring the non-German population to abandon their national identity in what was called \"Germanisation\". These policies often had the reverse effect of stimulating resistance, usually in the form of home schooling and tighter unity in the minority groups, especially the Poles. [51]\nThe Germanisation policies were targeted particularly against the significant Polish minority of the empire, gained by Prussia in the partitions of Poland. Poles were treated as an ethnic minority even where they made up the majority, as in the Province of Posen, where a series of anti-Polish measures was enforced. [52] Numerous anti-Polish laws had no great effect especially in the province of Posen where the German-speaking population dropped from 42.8% in 1871 to 38.1% in 1905, despite all efforts. [53]\nAntisemitism was endemic in Germany during the period. Before Napoleon's decrees ended the ghettos in Germany, it had been religiously motivated, but by the 19th century, it was a factor in German nationalism. The last legal barriers on Jews in Prussia were lifted by the 1860s, and within 20 years, they were over-represented in the white-collar professions and much of academia.[ citation needed ] In the popular mind Jews became a symbol of capitalism and wealth. On the other hand, the constitution and legal system protected the rights of Jews as German citizens. Antisemitic parties were formed but soon collapsed. [54]\nFrederick III, emperor for only 99 days (9 March \u201315 June 1888).\nOn 9 March 1888, Wilhelm I died shortly before his 91st birthday, leaving his son Frederick III as the new emperor. Frederick was a liberal and an admirer of the British constitution, [55] while his links to Britain strengthened further with his marriage to Princess Victoria, eldest child of Queen Victoria. With his ascent to the throne, many hoped that Frederick's reign would lead to a liberalisation of the Reich and an increase of parliament's influence on the political process. The dismissal of Robert von Puttkamer, the highly-conservative Prussian interior minister, on 8 June was a sign of the expected direction and a blow to Bismarck's administration.\nWilhelm II wanted to reassert his ruling prerogatives at a time when other monarchs in Europe were being transformed into constitutional figureheads. This decision led the ambitious Kaiser into conflict with Bismarck. The old chancellor had hoped to guide Wilhelm as he had guided his grandfather, but the emperor wanted to be the master in his own house and had many sycophants telling him that Frederick the Great would not have been great with a Bismarck at his side. [56] A key difference between Wilhelm II and Bismarck was their approaches to handling political crises, especially in 1889, when German coal miners went on strike in Upper Silesia. Bismarck demanded that the German Army be sent in to crush the strike, but Wilhelm II rejected this authoritarian measure, responding \"I do not wish to stain my reign with the blood of my subjects.\" [57] Instead of condoning repression, Wilhelm had the government negotiate with a delegation from the coal miners, which brought the strike to an end without violence. [56] The fractious relationship ended in March 1890, after Wilhelm II and Bismarck quarrelled, and the chancellor resigned days later. [56] Bismarck's last few years had seen power slip from his hands as he grew older, more irritable, more authoritarian, and less focused.\nWith Bismarck's departure, Wilhelm II became the dominant ruler of Germany. Unlike his grandfather, Wilhelm I, who had been largely content to leave government affairs to the chancellor, Wilhelm II wanted to be fully informed and actively involved in running Germany, not an ornamental figurehead, although most Germans found his claims of divine right to rule amusing. [58] Wilhelm allowed politician Walther Rathenau to tutor him in European economics and industrial and financial realities in Europe. [58]\nAs Hull (2004) notes, Bismarckian foreign policy \"was too sedate for the reckless Kaiser\". [59] Wilhelm became internationally notorious for his aggressive stance on foreign policy and his strategic blunders (such as the Tangier Crisis), which pushed the German Empire into growing political isolation and eventually helped to cause World War I.\nThe Reichstag in the 1890s /early 1900s.\nUnder Wilhelm II, Germany no longer had long-ruling strong chancellors like Bismarck. The new chancellors had difficulty in performing their roles, especially the additional role as Prime Minister of Prussia assigned to them in the German Constitution. The reforms of Chancellor Leo von Caprivi, which liberalized trade and so reduced unemployment, were supported by the Kaiser and most Germans except for Prussian landowners, who feared loss of land and power and launched several campaigns against the reforms. [60]\nWhile Prussian aristocrats challenged the demands of a united German state, in the 1890s several organizations were set up to challenge the authoritarian conservative Prussian militarism which was being imposed on the country. Educators opposed to the German state-run schools, which emphasized military education, set up their own independent liberal schools, which encouraged individuality and freedom. [61] However nearly all the schools in Imperial Germany had a very high standard and kept abreast with modern developments in knowledge. [62]\nArtists began experimental art in opposition to Kaiser Wilhelm's support for traditional art, to which Wilhelm responded \"art which transgresses the laws and limits laid down by me can no longer be called art\". [63] It was largely thanks to Wilhelm's influence that most printed material in Germany used blackletter instead of the Roman type used in the rest of Western Europe. At the same time, a new generation of cultural creators emerged. [64]\nFrom the 1890s onwards, the most effective opposition to the monarchy came from the newly formed Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), whose radicals advocated Marxism. The threat of the SPD to the German monarchy and industrialists caused the state both to crack down on the party's supporters and to implement its own programme of social reform to soothe discontent. Germany's large industries provided significant social welfare programmes and good care to their employees, as long as they were not identified as socialists or trade-union members. The larger industrial firms provided pensions, sickness benefits and even housing to their employees. [61]\nHaving learned from the failure of Bismarck's Kulturkampf, Wilhelm II maintained good relations with the Roman Catholic Church and concentrated on opposing socialism. [65] This policy failed when the Social Democrats won a third of the votes in the 1912 elections to the Reichstag, and became the largest political party in Germany. The government remained in the hands of a succession of conservative coalitions supported by right-wing liberals or Catholic clerics and heavily dependent on the Kaiser's favour. The rising militarism under Wilhelm II caused many Germans to emigrate to the U.S. and the British colonies to escape mandatory military service.\nDuring World War I, the Kaiser increasingly devolved his powers to the leaders of the German High Command, particularly future President of Germany, Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg and Generalquartiermeister Erich Ludendorff. Hindenburg took over the role of commander\u2013in\u2013chief from the Kaiser, while Ludendorff became de facto general chief of staff. By 1916, Germany was effectively a military dictatorship run by Hindenburg and Ludendorff, with the Kaiser reduced to a mere figurehead. [66]\nWilhelm II wanted Germany to have her \"place in the sun\", like Britain, which he constantly wished to emulate or rival. [67] With German traders and merchants already active worldwide, he encouraged colonial efforts in Africa and the Pacific (\"new imperialism\"), causing the German Empire to vie with other European powers for remaining \"unclaimed\" territories. With the encouragement or at least the acquiescence of Britain, which at this stage saw Germany as a counterweight to her old rival France, Germany acquired German Southwest Africa (modern Namibia), German Kamerun (modern Cameroon), Togoland (modern Togo) and German East Africa (modern Rwanda, Burundi, and the mainland part of current Tanzania). Islands were gained in the Pacific through purchase and treaties and also a 99-year lease for the territory of Kiautschou in northeast China. But of these German colonies only Togoland and German Samoa (after 1908) became self-sufficient and profitable; all the others required subsidies from the Berlin treasury for building infrastructure, school systems, hospitals and other institutions.\nBismarck and Wilhelm II after him sought closer economic ties with the Ottoman Empire. Under Wilhelm II, with the financial backing of the Deutsche Bank, the Baghdad Railway was begun in 1900, although by 1914 it was still 500 km (310 mi) short of its destination in Baghdad. [68] In an interview with Wilhelm in 1899, Cecil Rhodes had tried \"to convince the Kaiser that the future of the German empire abroad lay in the Middle East\" and not in Africa; with a grand Middle-Eastern empire, Germany could afford to allow Britain the unhindered completion of the Cape-to-Cairo railway that Rhodes favoured. [69] Britain initially supported the Baghdad Railway; but by 1911 British statesmen came to fear it might be extended to Basra on the Persian Gulf, threatening Britain's naval supremacy in the Indian Ocean. Accordingly, they asked to have construction halted, to which Germany and the Ottoman Empire acquiesced.\nWilhelm II and his advisers committed a fatal diplomatic error when they allowed the \"Reinsurance Treaty\" that Bismarck had negotiated with Tsarist Russia to lapse. Germany was left with no firm ally but Austria-Hungary, and her support for action in annexing Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1908 further soured relations with Russia. [70] Wilhelm missed the opportunity to secure an alliance with Britain in the 1890s when it was involved in colonial rivalries with France, and he alienated British statesmen further by openly supporting the Boers in the South African War and building a navy to rival Britain's. By 1911 Wilhelm had completely picked apart the careful power balance established by Bismarck and Britain turned to France in the Entente Cordiale. Germany's only other ally besides Austria was the Kingdom of Italy, but it remained an ally only pro forma. When war came, Italy saw more benefit in an alliance with Britain, France, and Russia, which, in the secret Treaty of London in 1915 promised it the frontier districts of Austria where Italians formed the majority of the population and also colonial concessions. Germany did acquire a second ally that same year when the Ottoman Empire entered the war on its side, but in the long run supporting the Ottoman war effort only drained away German resources from the main fronts.\nGermany began the war by targeting its chief rival, France. Germany saw France as its principal danger on the European continent as it could mobilize much faster than Russia and bordered Germany's industrial core in the Rhineland. Unlike Britain and Russia, the French entered the war mainly for revenge against Germany, in particular for France's loss of Alsace-Lorraine to Germany in 1871. The German high command knew that France would muster its forces to go into Alsace-Lorraine. Aside from the very unofficial Septemberprogramm, the Germans never stated a clear list of goals that they wanted out of the war. [71]\nGermany did not want to risk lengthy battles along the Franco-German border and instead adopted the Schlieffen Plan, a military strategy designed to cripple France by invading Belgium and Luxembourg, sweeping down to encircle and crush both Paris and the French forces along the Franco-German border in a quick victory. After defeating France, Germany would turn to attack Russia. The plan required violating the official neutrality of Belgium and Luxembourg, which Britain had guaranteed by treaty. However, the Germans had calculated that Britain would enter the war regardless of whether they had formal justification to do so.[ citation needed ] At first the attack was successful: the German Army swept down from Belgium and Luxembourg and advanced on Paris, at the nearby River Marne. However, the evolution of weapons over the last century heavily favored defense over offense, especially thanks to the machine gun, so that it took proportionally more offensive force to overcome a defensive position. This resulted in the German lines on the offense contracting to keep up the offensive time table while correspondingly the French lines were extending. In addition, some German units that were originally slotted for the German far right were transferred to the Eastern Front in reaction to Russia mobilizing far faster than anticipated. The combined affect had the German right flank sweeping down in front of Paris instead of behind it exposing the German Right flank to the extending French lines and attack from strategic French reserves stationed in Paris. Attacking the exposed German right flank, the French Army and the British Army put up a strong resistance to the defense of Paris at the First Battle of the Marne, resulting in the German Army retreating.\nIn March 1917, the Tsar was ousted from the Russian throne, and in November a Bolshevik government came to power under the leadership of Lenin. Facing political opposition from the Bolsheviks, he decided to end Russia's campaign against Germany, Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria in order to redirect Bolshevik energy to eliminating internal dissent. In March 1918, by the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, the Bolshevik government gave Germany and the Ottoman Empire enormous territorial and economic concessions in exchange for an end to war on the Eastern Front. All of the modern-day Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) were given over to the German occupation authority Ober Ost , along with Belarus and Ukraine. Thus Germany had at last achieved its long-wanted dominance of \"Mitteleuropa\" (Central Europe) and could now focus fully on defeating the Allies on the Western Front. In practice, however, the forces that were needed to garrison and secure the new territories were a drain on the German war effort.\nGermany quickly lost almost all its colonies. However, in German East Africa, an impressive guerrilla campaign was waged by the colonial army leader there, General Paul Emil von Lettow-Vorbeck. Using Germans and native Askaris, Lettow-Vorbeck launched multiple guerrilla raids against British forces in Kenya and Rhodesia. He also invaded Portuguese Mozambique to gain his forces supplies and to pick up more Askari recruits. His force was still active at war's end. [72]\nDefeating Russia in 1917 enabled Germany to transfer hundreds of thousands of combat troops from the east to the Western Front, giving it a numerical advantage over the Allies. By retraining the soldiers in new stormtrooper tactics, the Germans expected to unfreeze the battlefield and win a decisive victory before the army of the United States, which had now entered the war on the side of Britain and France, arrived in strength. [73] However, the repeated German offensives in the spring of 1918 all failed, as the Allies fell back and regrouped and the Germans lacked the reserves needed to consolidate their gains. Meanwhile, soldiers had become radicalised by the Russian Revolution and were less willing to continue fighting. The war effort sparked civil unrest in Germany, while the troops, who had been constantly in the field without relief, grew exhausted and lost all hope of victory. In the summer of 1918, with the Americans arriving at the rate of 10,000 a day and the German reserves spent, it was only a matter of time before multiple Allied offensives destroyed the German army. [74]\nThe concept of \"total war\" meant that supplies had to be redirected towards the armed forces and, with German commerce being stopped by the Allied naval blockade, German civilians were forced to live in increasingly meagre conditions. First food prices were controlled, then rationing was introduced. During the war about 750,000 German civilians died from malnutrition. [75]\nTowards the end of the war conditions deteriorated rapidly on the home front, with severe food shortages reported in all urban areas. The causes included the transfer of many farmers and food workers into the military, combined with the overburdened railway system, shortages of coal, and the British blockade. The winter of 1916\u20131917 was known as the \"turnip winter\", because the people had to survive on a vegetable more commonly reserved for livestock, as a substitute for potatoes and meat, which were increasingly scarce. Thousands of soup kitchens were opened to feed the hungry, who grumbled that the farmers were keeping the food for themselves. Even the army had to cut the soldiers' rations. [76] The morale of both civilians and soldiers continued to sink.\nBulgaria signed the Armistice of Solun on 29 September 1918. The Ottoman Empire signed the Armistice of Mudros on 30 October 1918. Between 24 October and 3 November 1918, Italy defeated Austria-Hungary in the battle of Vittorio Veneto, which forced Austria-Hungary to sign the Armistice of Villa Giusti on 3 November 1918. So, in November 1918, with internal revolution, the Allies advancing toward Germany on the Western Front, Austria-Hungary falling apart from multiple ethnic tensions, its other allies out of the war and pressure from the German high command, the Kaiser and all German ruling kings, dukes, and princes abdicated, and German nobility was abolished. On 9 November, the Social Democrat Philipp Scheidemann proclaimed a republic. The new government led by the German Social Democrats called for and received an armistice on 11 November. It was succeeded by the Weimar Republic. [77] Those opposed, including disaffected veterans, joined a diverse set of paramilitary and underground political groups such as the Freikorps, the Organisation Consul, and the Communists.\nPolish and other Slavic languages (6.28%) were spoken chiefly in the east. [78]\n(1 December 1900) [79]\nWar flag of the German Empire. In 1956, the Iron Cross was re-introduced as the symbol of the Bundeswehr , the modern German armed forces.\nThe era of the German Empire is well remembered in Germany as one of great cultural and intellectual vigour. Thomas Mann published his novel Buddenbrooks in 1901. Theodor Mommsen received the Nobel prize for literature a year later for his Roman history. Painters like the groups Der Blaue Reiter and Die Br\u00fccke made a significant contribution to modern art. The AEG turbine factory in Berlin by Peter Behrens from 1909 can be regarded as a milestone in classic modern architecture and an outstanding example of emerging functionalism. The social, economic, and scientific successes of this Gr\u00fcnderzeit , or founding epoch, have sometimes led the Wilhelmine era to be regarded as a golden age.\nIn the field of economics, the \"Kaiserzeit\" laid the foundation of Germany's status as one of the world's leading economic powers. The iron and coal industries of the Ruhr, the Saar and Upper Silesia especially contributed to that process. The first motorcar was built by Karl Benz in 1886. The enormous growth of industrial production and industrial potential also led to a rapid urbanisation of Germany, which turned the Germans into a nation of city dwellers. More than 5 million people left Germany for the United States during the 19th century. [80]\nMany historians have emphasized the central importance of a German Sonderweg or \"special path\" (or \"exceptionalism\") as the root of Nazism and the German catastrophe in the 20th century. According to the historiography by Kocka (1988), the process of nation-building from above had very grievous long-term implications. In terms of parliamentary democracy, Parliament was kept weak, the parties were fragmented, and there was a high level of mutual distrust. The Nazis built on the illiberal, anti-pluralist elements of Weimar's political culture. The Junker elites (the large landowners in the east) and senior civil servants used their great power and influence well into the twentieth century to frustrate any movement toward democracy. They played an especially negative role in the crisis of 1930\u20131933. Bismarck's emphasis on military force amplified the voice of the officer corps, which combined advanced modernisation of military technology with reactionary politics. The rising upper-middle class elites, in the business, financial and professional worlds, tended to accept the values of the old traditional elites. The German Empire was for Hans-Ulrich Wehler a strange mixture of highly successful capitalist industrialisation and socio-economic modernisation on the one hand, and of surviving pre-industrial institutions, power relations and traditional cultures on the other. Wehler argues that it produced a high degree of internal tension, which led on the one hand to the suppression of socialists, Catholics and reformers, and on the other hand to a highly aggressive foreign policy. For these reasons Fritz Fischer and his students emphasised Germany's primary guilt for causing the First World War. [81]\nHans-Ulrich Wehler, a leader of the Bielefeld School of social history, places the origins of Germany's path to disaster in the 1860s\u20131870s, when economic modernisation took place, but political modernisation did not happen and the old Prussian rural elite remained in firm control of the army, diplomacy and the civil service. Traditional, aristocratic, premodern society battled an emerging capitalist, bourgeois, modernising society. Recognising the importance of modernising forces in industry and the economy and in the cultural realm, Wehler argues that reactionary traditionalism dominated the political hierarchy of power in Germany, as well as social mentalities and in class relations (Klassenhabitus). The catastrophic German politics between 1914 and 1945 are interpreted in terms of a delayed modernisation of its political structures. At the core of Wehler's interpretation is his treatment of \"the middle class\" and \"revolution\", each of which was instrumental in shaping the 20th century. Wehler's examination of Nazi rule is shaped by his concept of \"charismatic domination\", which focuses heavily on Adolf Hitler. [82]\nThe historiographical concept of a German Sonderweg has had a turbulent history. 19th century scholars who emphasised a separate German path to modernity saw it as a positive factor that differentiated Germany from the \"western path\" typified by Great Britain. They stressed the strong bureaucratic state, reforms initiated by Bismarck and other strong leaders, the Prussian service ethos, the high culture of philosophy and music, and Germany's pioneering of a social welfare state. In the 1950s, historians in West Germany argued that the Sonderweg led Germany to the disaster of 1933\u20131945. The special circumstances of German historical structures and experiences, were interpreted as preconditions that, while not directly causing National Socialism, did hamper the development of a liberal democracy and facilitate the rise of fascism. The Sonderweg paradigm has provided the impetus for at least three strands of research in German historiography: the \"long 19th century\", the history of the bourgeoisie, and comparisons with the West. After 1990, increased attention to cultural dimensions and to comparative and relational history moved German historiography to different topics, with much less attention paid to the Sonderweg. While some historians have abandoned the Sonderweg thesis, they have not provided a generally accepted alternative interpretation.

He was the eldest grandchild of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom and related to many monarchs and princes of Europe, most notably his first cousins King George V of the United Kingdom and Emperor Nicholas II of Russia.\nThe German Confederation was an association of 39 German-speaking states in Central Europe, created by the Congress of Vienna in 1815 to coordinate the economies of separate German-speaking countries and to replace the former Holy Roman Empire, which had been dissolved in 1806. The German Confederation excluded German-speaking lands in the eastern portion of the Kingdom of Prussia, the German cantons of Switzerland, and Alsace within France which was majority German speaking.\nThe Austro-Prussian War or Seven Weeks' War was a war fought in 1866 between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, with each also being aided by various allies within the German Confederation. Prussia had also allied with the Kingdom of Italy, linking this conflict to the Third Independence War of Italian unification. The Austro-Prussian War was part of the wider rivalry between Austria and Prussia, and resulted in Prussian dominance over the German states.\nGeorg Leo Graf von Caprivi de Caprera de Montecuccoli, born Georg Leo von Caprivi, was a German general and statesman who succeeded Otto von Bismarck as Chancellor of Germany. Caprivi served as German Chancellor from March 1890 to October 1894. Caprivi promoted industrial and commercial development, and concluded numerous bilateral treaties for reduction of tariff barriers. However, this movement toward free trade angered the conservative agrarian interests, especially the Junkers. He promised the Catholic Center party educational reforms that would increase their influence, but failed to deliver. As part of Kaiser Wilhelm's \"new course\" in foreign policy, Caprivi abandoned Bismarck's military, economic, and ideological cooperation with Russia, and was unable to forge a close relationship with Britain. He successfully promoted the reorganization of the German military.\nThe Triple Entente refers to the understanding linking the Russian Empire, the French Third Republic, and United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland after the signing of the Anglo-Russian Entente on 31 August 1907. The understanding between the three powers, supplemented by agreements with Japan and Portugal, was a powerful counterweight to the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy.\nPrussia was a historically prominent German state that originated in 1525 with a duchy centred on the region of Prussia on the southeast coast of the Baltic Sea. It was de facto dissolved by an emergency decree transferring powers of the Prussian government to German Chancellor Franz von Papen in 1932 and de jure by an Allied decree in 1947. For centuries, the House of Hohenzollern ruled Prussia, successfully expanding its size by way of an unusually well-organised and effective army. Prussia, with its capital in K\u00f6nigsberg and from 1701 in Berlin, decisively shaped the history of Germany.\nThe unification of Germany into a politically and administratively integrated nation state officially occurred on 18 January 1871, in the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles in France. Princes of the German states, excluding Austria, gathered there to proclaim William I of Prussia as German Emperor after the French capitulation in the Franco-Prussian War. Unofficially, the de facto transition of most of the German-speaking populations into a federated organization of states had been developing for some time through alliances formal and informal between princely rulers, but in fits and starts. The self-interests of the various parties hampered the process over nearly a century of autocratic experimentation, beginning in the era of the Napoleonic Wars, which prompted the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806, and the subsequent rise of German nationalism.\nThe Kingdom of Bavaria was a German state that succeeded the former Electorate of Bavaria in 1805 and continued to exist until 1918. The Bavarian Elector Maximilian IV Joseph of the House of Wittelsbach became the first King of Bavaria in 1805 as Maximilian I Joseph. The crown would go on being held by the Wittelsbachs until the kingdom came to an end in 1918. Most of Bavaria's present-day borders were established after 1814 with the Treaty of Paris, in which Bavaria ceded Tyrol and Vorarlberg to the Austrian Empire while receiving Aschaffenburg and W\u00fcrzburg. With the unification of Germany into the German Empire in 1871, the kingdom became a federal state of the new Empire and was second in size, power, and wealth only to the leading state, the Kingdom of Prussia. In 1918, Bavaria became a republic, and the kingdom was thus succeeded by the current Free State of Bavaria.\nThe Imperial German Army was the unified ground and air force of the German Empire. The term Deutsches Heer is also used for the modern German Army, the land component of the Bundeswehr. The German Army was formed after the unification of Germany under Prussian leadership in 1871 and dissolved in 1919, after the defeat of the German Empire in World War I.\nThe causes of the Franco-Prussian War are deeply rooted in the events surrounding the German unification. In the aftermath of the Austro-Prussian War (1866), Prussia had annexed numerous territories and formed the North German Confederation. Prussia then turned its attention towards the south of Germany, where it sought to expand its influence.\nRelations between Austria and Germany are close, due to their shared history and language, with German being the official language and Germans being the largest ethnic group of both countries.\nThis article covers worldwide diplomacy and, more generally, the international relations of the major powers from 1814 to 1919. The international relations of minor countries are covered in their own history articles. This era covers the period from the end of the Napoleonic Wars and the Congress of Vienna (1814\u201315), to the end of the First World War and the Paris Peace Conference. For the previous era see International relations, 1648\u20131814. For the 1920s and 1930s see International relations (1919\u20131939).\nThe History of German foreign policy covers diplomatic developments and international history since 1871.\nThe proclamation of the German Empire, also known as the Deutsche Reichsgr\u00fcndung, took place in January 1871 after the joint victory of the German states in the Franco-Prussian War. As a result of the November Treaties of 1870s, the southern German states of Baden, Hesse-Darmstadt, with their territories south of the Main line, W\u00fcrttemberg and Bavaria, joined the Prussian-dominated \"German Confederation\" on 1 January 1871. On the same day, the new Constitution of the German Confederation came into force, thereby significantly extending the federal German lands to the newly created German Empire. The Day of the founding of the German Empire, January 18, became a day of celebration, marking when the Prussian King William I was proclaimed German Emperor in Versailles.\n\u2191 Whitaker's Almanak, 1897, by Joseph Whitaker; p. 548\n\u2191 Statement of Abdication of Wilhelm II\n\u2191 \"German Empire: administrative subdivision and municipalities, 1900 to 1910\" (in German).

The term \"Kaiserreich\" literally denotes an empire \u2013 particularly a hereditary empire led by an emperor, although \"Reich\" has been used in German to denote the Roman Empire because it had a weak hereditary tradition. In the case of the German Empire, the official name was Deutsches Reich, which is properly translated as \"German Empire\" because the official position of head of state in the constitution of the German Empire was officially a \"presidency\" of a confederation of German states led by the King of Prussia who would assume \"the title of German Emperor\" as referring to the German people, but was not emperor of Germany as in an emperor of a state. \u2014 \"The German Empire.\" Harper's New Monthly Magazine. vol. 63, issue 376, pp. 591\u2013603; here p. 593.[ neutrality is disputed ]\n\u2191 World Book, Inc.

        "raw_content": "Point totals rising for Jets: November brought more good than bad\nIf there\u2019s one thing the Winnipeg Jets have proven during the first two months of the NHL season, it\u2019s that it\u2019s not always going to look pretty.\nSure, there are going to be nights when the offence is clicking on all cylinders and the Jets produce five goals in a period against the Pittsburgh Penguins.\nOr after falling behind, they might just find a way to score seven unanswered goals against the Minnesota Wild.\nBut there are also nights like Wednesday in Denver, when creating offence just didn\u2019t come easily for the Jets and grinding it out is going to be required.\nInstead of letting their frustration get the better of them, the Jets found a way to get the go-ahead goal but were unable to hold the lead, ultimately falling 3-2 in overtime in a strange ending that saw Avalanche centre Nathan MacKinnon score not once, but twice during the extra period (though the first one was wiped out by an offside call).\nDepending on your point of view, the Jets were either incredibly lucky to leave the Pepsi Center with a single point \u2014 or a bit unfortunate for not hanging onto the lead for the final eight minutes and change.\nThe reality is that the Jets probably got what they deserved.\nThough the effort wasn\u2019t lacking, the Jets looked like a team that was running on fumes.\nThe mind was willing, but the legs simply weren\u2019t there.\nPasses weren\u2019t as crisp as normal and during the few times the Jets were able to sustain any offensive pressure, the finish wasn\u2019t there.\nDefensively, at least at even strength, the Jets were pretty solid \u2013 limiting the Avalanche to 23 shots on goal overall, with not an abundance of high-danger scoring chances allowed.\nBut the penalty kill surrendered a pair of goals in five opportunities, though one of those was MacKinnon\u2019s shot that caromed in off the pants of Jets defenceman Josh Morrissey.\nSpecial teams were a definite factor in Wednesday\u2019s result, since the Jets went zero-for-four with the man-advantage and weren\u2019t in synch for most of those situations.\nThe Jets power play has been a weapon for them and a team is not going to score each and every game, but this was one of those nights when they needed one of the units to get something going to give them a boost and that simply didn\u2019t happen.\nAs the Jets get set to welcome the Vegas Golden Knights to town on Friday, you can be sure many of the players will be looking to atone from a poor showing in Sin City on Nov. 10.\nYou can bet Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck\u2019s had this game circled on his calendar, as that was the only time this season he\u2019s been pulled from a start.\nHellebuyck gave up five goals on 23 shots on goal that night and he\u2019s going to be feeling a little extra motivation on Friday after allowing the tying goal to Nikita Zadorov that he felt he should have stopped.\nHellebuyck has given up two or fewer goals in 13 of 18 starts this season and he\u2019s shown a lot of maturity in bouncing back from what he\u2019s deemed as subpar showings.\nBy going 15-6-4 through the first two months of the NHL season, the Jets have put themselves in prime position, but the journey is still in its infancy.\n\u201cAt this point in the year, we still have a long ways to go for where we want to get to and the goals we have as a group,\u201d said Jets defenceman Josh Morrissey. \u201cWe need to continue to be getting better every day and some of that is in a game like (Wednesday\u2019s), where it\u2019s not looking that pretty. Obviously, you want the two points but at the same time, you found a way to grind a greasy road game into a chance to win. We\u2019ve just got to keep going here.\u201d\nWith 15 games in the next 31 days, the Jets realize they can\u2019t afford many letdowns if they want to remain near the top of the standings.\n\u201cWe\u2019re all happy with the start we\u2019re having. The biggest thing is not getting complacent and not being satisfied with what we\u2019ve done because there\u2019s a lot of hockey left,\u201d said Jets centre Bryan Little. \u201cA lot of things can happen. Stuff happens, injuries, anything can happen. We know that every game is important right now. I\u2019m sure we\u2019re going to put this one behind us pretty quick and move on to the next one, which is what we\u2019ve been doing all year.\u201d\nLaine sits a bit in third period\nTo call it an outright benching would be a bit of an exaggeration.\nBut it didn\u2019t go unnoticed that when Winnipeg Jets head coach Paul Maurice shortened his bench during the third period of Wednesday\u2019s 3-2 overtime loss to the Colorado Avalanche, Patrik Laine skipped a few shifts out of his normal rotation as he was replaced by Mathieu Perreault on the second line with Bryan Little and Nikolaj Ehlers.\nPerreault, who has five goals and seven points in eight games since returning from a 12-game absence, had more jump than Laine did on this night and Maurice didn\u2019t hesitate to make the move.\nHaving said that, he wasn\u2019t really in the mood to give an expansive answer on what went into the decision following Wednesday\u2019s game.\n\u201cWe were going to go to three (lines) and I didn\u2019t want to leave (Perreault) on the bench,\u201d said Maurice.\nLaine was limited to only one shot on goal and four shot attempts and finished the game with 17 shifts (seven in the first period, five in the second period and five in the third) for 13:37 of ice time, including 3:31 on the power play.\nIt was the second lowest time on ice for Laine, who played only 13:20 against the Minnesota Wild on Oct. 31.\nThe second-year winger has 11 goals and 17 points in 25 games this season.\nThe Jets flew home from Denver on Thursday and open a two-game homestand against the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday at Bell MTS Place.",

I won\u2019t say I\u2019m free, because the voices of my past still grip tightly. They pull on me like the strings of a marionette, still in control of most every move I make.\nI once read that ending a relationship with a narcissistic abuser is like waking up from a coma. I have to relearn everything because so much of my life surrounded around my narcissistic abuser. I feared every move and wondered what would set him off next. I wanted to please him, wanted to NOT make him mad. Almost everything I did was contingent on how it would affect him and in turn affect me and the kids.\nI\u2019m learning to think for myself. Learning to make decisions that don\u2019t involve my abuser.\nI\u2019m learning to live without being in a state of constant fear that has consumed most every moment of the past 15 years of my marriage.\nThere is a quote from The Scarlet Letter that states, \u2018She had not known the weight until she felt the freedom.\u2019 Since ending it, I\u2019ve not read a more true statement as it pertains to my life at this exact moment. The longer I\u2019m in a more \u2018normal\u2019 environment, the more I\u2019m seeing how devastating my life actually was.\nI wasn\u2019t truly living\u2026\nI was getting by,\npretending,\nand simply pushing it all down to somehow make myself believe everything was okay.\nI have a long ways to go, but I want to believe it will get better. I want to believe I\u2019ll eventually heal and be normal again\u2026whatever my new normal even is anymore. I want to believe his voice will no longer be at the forefront of my mind some day.\nBut until that day, I can\u2019t say I\u2019m completely free from him. Physically? Yes. Emotionally?

        "raw_content": "Message from the Managing Editor: Paradise x 4 in 2007\nPublished January 22, 2007\tMessage from the Managing Editor , Sage Cohen Closed\nLet\u2019s start the New Year with our eyes on the writing and publishing prize, shall we?\nBy now, you have probably made your list of resolutions for everything you plan to do better this year. I\u2019d like to propose that we replace the concept of resolutions (which suggests that we\u2019ve been naughty, and now it\u2019s time to be nice) with the concept of intentions (which suggests that we have the capacity to materialize what we visualize).\nIntentions are along the lines of a mental snapshot of a desired end result. Here are a few examples. In\n2007, I intend to:\nPlace three feature articles\nComplete my book proposal\nAttend two writing conferences\nEstablish a blog that will reinforce my platform\nWake up at 5 a.m. and write for two hours every day before work\nYou get the idea. (Or, you can read Wayne W. Dyer\u2019s The Power of Intention if you\u2019d like to learn more.) Now, here\u2019s the hitch. We must not, under any circumstances, think about all the reasons these intentions might not be possible.\nJack Canfield, co-founder of the Chicken Soup for the Soul anthologies, advises that once we target a goal or intention, it\u2019s important not to trip ourselves up by immediately trying to figure out how we\u2019ll get there. The formula he recommends is simple:\nClearly articulate where we\u2019re headed\nUnplug the mind and the ego from the question of \u201chow to make it happen\u201d\nListen for our inner wisdom, and let our intuitive navigation systems take us there\nCanfield uses the metaphor of driving from New York to California. We don\u2019t have to perceive the entire trajectory from start to finish; we can make it across the country seeing only 200 yards in front of us at a time.\nDave Ellis, author of Falling Awake: Creating the Life of Your Dreams, suggests that when setting intentions, we set our sights on \u201cParadise X 4.\u201d He argues that since we are typically able to achieve 25% of our intentions, we would ultimately arrive in Paradise.\nI tried this myself. At the beginning of 2006, I spent a few hours visualizing the year. I wrote a long list of writing\u2013\u2013and life\u2013\u2013goals (some more grandiose than others), and then filed them away. This week, I revisited the list and was stunned to discover that I\u2019ve achieved nearly 90% of my goals. Even a few of the wildest ones. Welcome to Paradise!\nDoes any of this sound a little far out? Maybe it is. Or maybe it\u2019s not. You won\u2019t know until you try.\n2007\u2014The Year of the Golden Writing Adventure\nPublished January 21, 2007\tKristin Bair O'Keeffe , Writing Adventures in Shanghai Closed\nHappy New Year, writers! Here in China, 2007 is the Year of the Golden Pig, a rare event that occurs once every 60 years when the pig sign coincides with the gold element. According to Chinese zodiac lore, babies born this year will have good fortune, especially in financial issues. (Translation: Golden Pigs make big bucks.) In preparation for this auspicious year, couples all over China have been scurrying to make babies. (According to The Shanghai Daily, a local English newspaper, the Shanghai Population and Family Planning Commission predicts that 131,000 babies will be born in the city this year, up from 123,901 last year. Now that\u2019s a lot of Golden Pigs.)\nSince I missed my shot at being a Golden Pig by about forty years, I\u2019ve sidestepped the Chinese zodiac calendar and dubbed 2007 the Year of the Golden Writing Adventure. In 2006, I married and moved to Shanghai, and ever since, marriage and China have been the two subjects that compel me most as a writer. These two wonderfully spirited, complex adventures command my attention every day. I ponder them over cups of chrysanthemum tea, roll them over my tongue like stones, dream about them in the wee morning hours, blog about them, wrestle them to the ground, admire them by starlight, explore them with my husband, and of course, write about them.\nMy goal for the Year of the Golden Writing Adventure? Get it on the page and get it out there to readers. All of it. Novel. Essays. Articles. Blog. Even that poem that\u2019s been poking at me for the last few months.\nWhat does the Year of the Golden Writing Adventure have in store for you? Where does your life coincide with your writing? What tugs at your attention? At your heart? What do you obsess about? What do you want to say? Think about this for a few minutes, then grab your journal and write it down. Pour it onto the page\u2026everything you want this year to bring. When you\u2019re done, when you\u2019re sweaty and spent, when your tears have smeared the ink, tear out the pages and hang them above your desk with a little sign that reads \u201c2007\u2014The Year of the Golden Writing Adventure.\u201d\nKristin Bair O\u2019Keeffe is a writer and writing teacher living in Shanghai, China. Her first article about The Middle Kingdom will appear in Highlights for Children. In addition, her work has been published in The ELL Outlook, PortFolio, The Gettysburg Review, The Larcom Review, Permafrost, and Hair Trigger. As a teacher, Kristin has been inspiring and motivating students for the past thirteen years. Her blog, \u201cShanghai Adventures of a Trailing Spouse,\u201d explores the curiosities of life in China and garners the interest of readers all around the world.

Guess what? It\u2019s true. But first a couple of minor details\u2014how to actually get clients and write copy. Welcome to The Copywriter\u2019s Paycheck! In 2007, I\u2019ll share practical guidelines for building a business along with tips for honing your craft.\nGetting Started Tip: Nab your first client\u2014yourself As an aspiring copywriter, it\u2019s easy to get your first client. Just accept the job of writing your own marketing materials. Start with a simple brochure\u2014something that demonstrates your skills and provides contact information (see content tips below). For design and printing, try an independent copy outlet that uses a digital press. They\u2019ll provide basic layout services and can print a small, economical run of your materials. Then, hand out your brochure\u2014with confidence\u2014to every business contact you meet.\nCopywriting Tip: Think (a lot) before you write Good copy may look simple on the page, but it\u2019s actually the result of careful planning backed by marketing savvy. Before you begin writing, learn all you can about your client\u2019s business (conduct an interview, read other marketing materials). Then, answer the following questions: What is my client selling? Who is my client selling to? What problems does this market face? How does my client provide solutions? Next, determine what kind of language\u2014soothing, hip, upbeat, serious\u2014your client\u2019s market will respond to. Use this information as a guide throughout the writing process.\nGreen Writer Marketplace: Mother Earth News\nPublished January 19, 2007\tGreen Writer Marketplace , Susan W. Clark Closed\nFor a writer with the urge to write green, Kermit the Frog\u2019s old song, \u201cIt\u2019s Not Easy Being Green,\u201d turns out to be wrong. In 2007, it\u2019s actually cool to be green. The purpose of this column is to help you break into one of the dozens of publications dedicated to saving the ecosystem. So what are we waiting for? Let\u2019s start at the top of my list.\nThe venerable bi-monthly Mother Earth News is now thirty-five years old and reaches more than one million readers. Their mission is to promote \u201cmore self-sufficient, financially independent and environmentally aware lifestyles.\u201d The Editor is Cheryl Long and the Managing Editor is John Rockhold.\nFreelance opportunities for this publication are limited, with most features written by Mother Earth News contributing editors, but two departments offer a door-opening first chance. For payment of $25 to $50, try writing 100 to 300 words of how-to for Country Lore. Or you could write up to 2,000 words in the first person about some topic related to sustainable lifestyle for Firsthand Reports from the Field. They pay $150 for these pieces.\nIf you\u2019re a writer with both clips and relevant experience, you can propose a feature by sending a synopsis and a one-page outline to letters @ MotherEarthNews.com. To quote from their Contributor Guide, \u201cPracticality is critical; freelance articles must be informative, well-documented and tightly written in an engaging and energetic voice. Don\u2019t forget to read our magazine.\u201d If you get the assignment, your pay will be in the neighborhood of $1 per word.\nBecause this is a widely distributed publication, you should be able to find copies to review in libraries.\nWhy To Start Building Your Platform Now\nPublished January 15, 2007\tChristina Katz , Platform Development 101 Closed\nThink you\u2019re exempt from building a nonfiction platform to support your writing career?\nThen you are doing yourself and your career a huge disservice.\nThe word platform simply describes all the ways you are visible and appealing to your potential, future, or actual readership. Platform development is not only important for existing authors; it\u2019s also crucial for wannabe authors or soon-to-be authors. And not only is platform development a refreshing switch from the daily grind, it can quickly become another satisfying and prosperous income stream for your writing career that enhances your bottom line. And what writer wouldn\u2019t want that?\nIf you want to be successful in today\u2019s literary marketplace, the smartest career strategy for your time and money is to begin to build, from scratch if necessary, the most productive platform you can. At this juncture, I\u2019m talking about a simple Web site, blog or e-newsletter. That\u2019s it. Nothing fancy or exotic. None of whatever is the latest technological breakthrough. Just the tried and true stalwarts. Because building a platform takes time and effort and, initially, you may build it and no one may come. But without a platform, you will have to work ten times harder to get your book (or future book) known. Perhaps a hundred times harder.\nWhen I started developing my platform, I had no idea what I was doing. But I have loved the Internet since I fist logged on with a dial-up account in the dark ages, about seven years ago. I am also a writing instructor and I\u2019ve been one since 2001. For me, as far as platform evolution, a relocation from Bellingham, Washington to Wilsonville, Oregon a couple of years ago caused me to have to leave behind three year\u2019s of writing students and two classes I loved teaching at the local community college. I felt disappointed to be moving just when I\u2019d discovered something (in my thirties, mind you) I loved to do and that seemed to be building, quite naturally, into a dual career I could love: writing for publication and teaching others how to write for publication.\nAnd yet, the lure of the right job in Wilsonville for my husband was too strong to resist. In the final six months that we lived in Bellingham, I published, with the help of my students and the college, an anthology of their best writing. We gave a public reading and, shortly thereafter, my husband and I packed up a truck and moved with our two-year-old daughter to Oregon.\nIn August 2004, I was sitting in my new home office with my daughter, Samantha, playing at my feet. I had no babysitters, in fact, no personal connections in our new town whatsoever. I felt pressure to start over and do what I\u2019d already done: go find another college, apply to teach, and start building a core of students all over again. But I couldn\u2019t get over the feeling that letting go of the personal relationships I\u2019d nurtured with hundreds of students and starting over was the right decision, even though those former students were hundreds of miles away.\nMy solution to this dilemma was to take my appreciation for the Internet and leverage it to stay connected with my students through an e-mail newsletter that I had already begun. I also made the decision to fly solo as a writing instructor, taking one of the classes I\u2019d been developing and turning it into an e-mail class. Thanks to the Internet, I\u2019ve been teaching Writing and Marketing Nonfiction Features for almost six years now. Becoming a distance teacher instead of a classroom teacher encouraged me to specialize initially, since I had to allow time to do my own administrative work. I think when you\u2019re just starting out with anything, it\u2019s a really good idea to specialize until you find your groove.\nA simple Web site, an e-mail newsletter and one e-mail class comprised my platform when I received an e-mail from a producer at \u201cGood Morning America\u201d inviting me to be on the show for an interview with Diane Sawyer. So what really landed me on \u201cGood Morning America\u201d? A GOOGLE search.\nA GMA production assistant pulled up my article, \u201cThe Art of Making Time for Yourself,\u201d which had been published four years earlier on Bluesuitmom.com. It came up at the top of the search page. On GOOGLE, the URL at the top of the list is the most-often read on that specific search topic. The producer e-mailed. I thought his message was SPAM. He called. I was still skeptical. After a long conversation, he convinced me that he really was a GMA producer and I really was the right person to appear on the show. Eventually, he agreed to fly my daughter and me to New York to be on the show (though my daughter had a meltdown on the set and had to be carried off by her Aunt).\nGood things can and will happen in your writing career if you work continually on your platform. This is why you need to determine what your platform is and start working on it right away. Building a platform is an act of optimism because, really, you have no idea what will result from it, nor can you control this. And why would you want or need to, when good things are so much more likely to happen in your writing career once you have a platform? Why not get to work right now stacking the odds in your favor?\nTo get started, check out these folks with platforms that will inspire you:\nhttp://hellomynameisscott.com: Example of how a 26-year-old success story leverages his self-published books using his online platform.\nhttp://sethgodin.com: A master of the online platform.

Surprising not only myself but many people close to me, I began cooking. And I don\u2019t mean the usual cooking I\u2019d been subsisting on for the last 30+ years\u2014the kind that involved poking holes in a microwavable pouch and then spinning the food around in the magic box for a few minutes.\nI mean actual cooking. The kind that requires drizzling tomatoes with olive oil and blanching things and soaking small fruits overnight in a bisque of brandy and cranberry juice. I made white sauce, clam sauce, pesto, chili, artichoke-garbanzo bean soup, and a bunch of other stuff that\u2019s much easier to just buy in a can. But now I know what it feels like to be Julie Powell. Sort of.\nPowell is the author of Julie and Julia: My Year of Cooking Dangerously, her account of the year she cooked every recipe in Julia Child\u2019s Mastering the Art of French Cooking. No easy task, but Powell, feeling stuck and bored in her job as a temp, was eager for a challenge. Child\u2019s cookbook is \u201cchildishly simple and dauntingly complex, incantatory and comforting,\u201d Powell writes. Reading it, she says, \u201cI thought this was what prayer must feel like. Sustenance bound up with anticipation and want.\u201d\nI won\u2019t spoil the story for you, but I will say that reading about food is almost as fun as eating it, especially in the talented hands of a writer like Julie Powell. She could\u2019ve written a book about deciding to watch NASCAR racing every day for a year and I probably still would have found it hilarious, fascinating, and completely impossible to put down. She\u2019s that entertaining. Even if it doesn\u2019t send you to the kitchen, Julie and Julia serves up a terrific sampling of how to weave a story and a life into an entertaining memoir.\nConference Confab (January)\nPublished January 13, 2007\tConference Confab , Pamela Kim , Writing Conferences Closed\nSan Francisco Writers Conference, February 16-18, 2007\nBilled as a writer\u2019s best value, the San Francisco Writers Conference brings together over 100 literary agents, publishers and editors from the West Coast and New York.

        "raw_content": "WSKG (https://wskg.org/news/pa-study-pipeline-blast-could-be-devastating-but-risk-is-low/)\nPA Study: Pipeline Blast Could Be Devastating, But Risk Is Low\nBy Jon Hurdle | December 6, 2018\nSTATEIMPACT PENNSYLVANIA \u2013 A worst-case explosion of the Mariner East 2 pipeline in Delaware County would kill anyone within about a mile of the rupture, a new report says, but it concludes the chances of someone dying from a pipeline incident are less than that of dying in a car crash or from falling down stairs.\nThe report says that a flammable vapor cloud could extend 1.3 miles downwind from the point of a full rupture, and calculated that there was a 100 percent probability of dying from a blast over a certain intensity for everyone within a mile radius, whether they were outdoors or indoors.\nIn this photo from May 2018, pipeline workers probe the ground on Lisa Drive in West Whiteland Township where sinkholes have developed as a result of the Mariner East 2 construction. (Jon Hurdle/StateImpact Pennsyvlvania)\nAnd it said the chances of a natural gas liquids leak igniting from the Sunoco pipeline are higher in a densely populated area like Delaware County than they would be in a rural area, because of the higher number of potential ignition sources like cars, cellphones or doorbells.\nThe size and direction of a flammable vapor cloud would depend on wind speed and atmospheric stability, the report said.\n\u201cThe dispersing flammable cloud could ignite at any point in time and the time of ignition, with respect to the changing size of the flammable cloud means that the resulting consequence can vary greatly,\u201d said the report, written for Delaware County Council by G2 Integrated Solutions, an independent consultant.\nMore: We\u2019re wired to be wary of certain things. Here\u2019s why pipelines are among them\nThe report also assessed the risk of the proposed conversion of a 50-mile section of the existing Adelphia pipeline from oil to natural gas, and concluded that its risk was in the same category as Mariner East 2. Delaware County hosts about 11 miles of ME2 and 12 miles of Adelphia.\nWorries about ME2\u2019s safety have been fueled by a long series of drilling-fluid spills and geological problems since the multibillion-dollar pipeline started construction in February 2017, prompting state regulators to issue dozens of violations. Federal data show Sunoco with the second-highest number of pipeline incidents in the industry.\nDespite its grim predictions, the study concluded that the risk of fatality from such a pipeline incident was in the same category as common sources of risk facing the general population daily.\nBut pipeline safety campaigners rejected the comparison with common sources of risk such as cars, saying that the new report understates the actual risk by ignoring the fact that the Mariner East project will consist of three pipes of different diameters, representing at least a doubling of the risk.\nActivists also noted that the report is based on risk to individuals, and did not consider the schools that the pipeline will run near, whose concentration of students would have increased the calculated risk, they said.\nSunoco, a unit of Energy Transfer, said the report vindicates its argument that the pipeline is safe, and questioned why the council decided to spend more than $100,000 of taxpayers\u2019 money to have a consultant reach that conclusion.\nSpokeswoman Lisa Dillinger said the actual risk level is lower than stated because the calculations are based on the hypothetical example of an individual standing directly over the pipeline 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The report said that the average person\u2019s exposure to a fatal traffic accident is about 20 times greater than the fatality risk to someone standing above the pipeline 24/7.\n\u201cThere are thousands of miles of pipelines running throughout Pennsylvania safely transporting oil and gas products,\u201d she said. \u201cWe look forward to ME2 being one of those pipelines in the very near future.\u201d\nThe 74-page report, released last week, is the second risk study on the pipeline to be commissioned by safety campaigners or public officials in Philadelphia\u2019s western suburbs this year. In August, pipeline activists released a \u201cCitizens Risk Assessment\u201d in which Quest, another consultant, made its own calculations on the vulnerability of residents in Delaware and Chester counties to any leak or explosion from the controversial line.\nQuest\u2019s estimate of the size of a flammable cloud was about a third of that calculated in the new report, a gap that activists attributed to the different modeling software used by the two companies.\nBrian Zidek, a Delaware County councilman, said the report contained elements that would please both sides of the pipeline debate, and was broadly in line with the Quest study. But he defended the council\u2019s decision to spend $115,000 on the new report, which he said adds to citizens\u2019 understanding of the project\u2019s risks.\n\u201cWe have now two data sources that quantify the risk posed by the Mariner East pipeline, and being able to quantify that risk is useful for citizens, for first responders, and for any government agency having to deal with this,\u201d he said.\nZidek, one of two Democrats on the Republican-controlled council, said G2 will present the study to the public at an event sometime before the end of the year. He said it should be read by the Public Utility Commission, as the state agency with authority over pipeline safety. Colleen Morrone, the Republican vice-chair of the council, did not return a phone call seeking comment.\nDespite its differences with the Quest study, activists said the new report underlines the dangers of running the pipeline through a densely populated area like Delaware County.\n\u201cIt is now abundantly clear that the rupture of a hazardous, highly volatile liquids transmission pipeline in Delaware County is going to be a mass casualty event. And the odds of this happening are disturbingly high,\u201d said the citizens\u2019 group Del-Chesco United for Pipeline Safety, in a statement.\nState Sen. Andy Dinniman, a Chester County Democrat who is an outspoken opponent of the Mariner East project, said both studies help the public to understand pipeline risks after the Wolf administration declined to do its own assessment.\n\u201cOur communities are only as safe as what we know about this project and what we\u2019re finding out is that our residents are not only rightfully concerned, but these concerns are far more serious than previously thought,\u201d Dinniman said in a statement.\nBut pipeline advocates dismissed the new report as a last-ditch attempt to derail the project, which Sunoco says will begin operating before the end of the year.\n\u201cLiving near the Mariner East lines is actually safer than driving a car, and this report confirms that local residents needn\u2019t fear this critically important infrastructure project that will deliver significant economic benefits to Pennsylvanians for years to come,\u201d said Kurt Knaus, a spokesman for the Pennsylvania Energy Infrastructure Alliance.\nWhen operational, Mariner East 2 will carry natural gas liquids about 300 miles across the state to a terminal at Marcus Hook in Delaware County where most of it will be exported to Scotland for making plastics.",

He was arrested on January 2, as he was about to board a plane to leave the county.\nWarmbier was sentenced to 15 years hard labor for crimes against the state on March 16.\nThe banner Warmbier is said to have taken from the hotel reads: \u201cLet\u2019s arm ourselves strongly with Kim Jong-il patriotism!\u201d\nDuring a press conference in February, Warmbier admitted to attempting to steal the banner, but it\u2019s not known whether he made the admission under duress.\n\"I never, never should have allowed myself to be lured by the United States administration to commit a crime in this country,\" he said tearfully, as he begged for forgiveness.\nThe North Korean government alleges Warmbier was encouraged to commit the \"hostile act\" by a purported member of an Ohio church, a secretive university organization and even the CIA.\nHuman rights experts tell CBS 6 it seems the North Koreans want to use the student as a bargaining chip with the U.S. government, during a time of deep nuclear and economic tension.\nThe U.S. State Department responded to the sentencing Wednesday saying the punishment doesn't fit the alleged crime.\nThe sentence against University of Virginia student Otto Frederick Warmbier is \"unduly harsh,\" State Department spokesman Mark Toner said, calling for his release.\nThe United States urged North Korea \"to pardon him and to grant him special amnesty and immediate release on humanitarian grounds,\" Toner said.\nThe CNN Wire contributed to this report\nTopics: International, University of Virginia\nNorth Korea ordered to pay Warmbier family $500 million: \u2018I want them to feel victimized\u2019\nCalls for Lt.

        "raw_content": "Shaaaack-!\nThe air was torn. Darkness couldn't be seen in this gap, while the 10-meter-long aura blade was hidden in it. This was a sword which cut through space.\nIf the world was like a watercolor painting, then Zest's blade was a streak of black on the paper. Physical strength and defense were meaningless in front of it, and it was more like destroying the space where the other person stood, rather than cutting.\nEven the senior demon, Magnus, couldn't be careless against this attack!\n[ No?! ] Before the astonished Magnus, the aura blade tore through the space.\nThen it cut Magnus' head, heart, and neck. The blade took one step away from the material world and created a ridiculous tear. There was no way to survive in this life-threatening hell which covered 360 degrees. A body would be torn to pieces, disappearing without a trace.\nThis was Zest Speitem's special move, cutting a person to pieces. It was a technique where the aura blade literally shattered the space along with the target. Death was a certainty, even for the famous Orta.\nImmediately afterward, countless blades of light surrounded Magnus.\nBlack blood emerged. The distinctive smell of sulfur was emitted from Magnus' body which didn't exist in the material world. It was evidence that Zest's attack was valid for the first time.\n\"Kuheok!\"\nThe space which was cut dozens of times shook unsteadily, and Theodore coughed up blood as he maintained the summoning spell.\n'Damn, I can't last much longer...!'\nThe summoning circle had already been broken to an extent that the shape couldn't be recognized, and the connection with Magnus was on the verge of being severed. It wouldn't be strange if Magnus' summoning was canceled immediately.\nZest was exhausted after using all of his aura, but he was convinced of his own victory.\n[\u2015Good, now is it my turn? ]\nThe demon moved despite his shattered body.\nMagnus' flaming sword, a greatsword which was larger than the pillar of a building, moved toward Zest at an amazing speed. The powerless Zest couldn't afford to go against it. However, he managed to avoid it desperately at the right timing.\nAs expected of Andras' strongest swordsman, the attack was blocked. A direct strike would've taken his life, but Zest reduced the damage as much as possible by moving far away.\nAlas, that didn't mean his body wasn't injured. Magnus' destructive power was really great, and Zest paid the price. Despite offsetting most of the power, both of his arms were broken, four of his ribs had snapped, and some of his internal organs were damaged.\nZest would've been seriously injured if there had been a little more strength in the attack.\n[ As expected, I'm sorry. In the end, I am lacking one step. ] Instead of chasing after him, Magnus turned to Theodore and grumbled. [ Summoner, prepare for the future. ]\n\"Is there a reason why I have to hurry?\"\n[ That human's skill has touched the dimensional gate. My flames and the boundaries of this material world are bound together, so this whole area will be blown away. ]\nTheodore understood Magnus' words and his eyes widened. \"Surely, it isn't dimensional shaking?\"\n[ As expected from a magician. ] Magnus' body gradually faded away. The connection which brought him to the material world was cut off, so it was natural for him to return to his original world. The demon, who enjoyed himself after thousands of years, disappeared, and the space around him distorted.\nIt was as he said. After Magnus disappeared, the entire space where the magic circle was drawn had distorted. A world which couldn't be understood by the human senses unfolded.\nThere was a dizzying array of sound and sights that couldn't be distinguished. Theodore tried to raise his body but panicked as he found that the ground had already disappeared. It wasn't a phenomenon which could be escaped with human legs.\nThat's why he went with his first instinct. Theodore couldn't find the answer on his own and quickly called an advisor.\n'Gluttony!'\n-I was already awake. You didn't have to call me so urgently, User, Gluttony talked as calmly as usual, despite Theodore standing at the crossroad of life and death. Its attitude calmed Theodore's impatience.\nGluttony was trustworthy as always as he delivered some instructions, -Protect your body before I give you a way to escape this place. If you take advantage of Umbra's strength, you can resolve some of the pressure of this distorted space.\n'Use Dimensional Leave?'\n-Umbra relies on mental power, not magic power. Even if your magic power is depleted, you can hold it for about 30 seconds.\nGluttony's advice was correct. Theodore felt his breathing ease as soon as he unleashed Umbra's strength. The distorted space had made it hard for him to breathe. Theodore became calm as his breathing was restored, and Gluttony moved onto the next step.\n-You need something to get out of here.\n'That something, do I already have it?'\n-That's right. It is necessary to bring out 'Death's Worship' that is sealed in the inventory.\nTheodore was lost for words. It was natural when thinking of Death's Worship.\nIt was the grimoire that had created thousands of undead a few years ago when Theodore returned home. The grimoire contained the soul of the ancient legendary warlock, Jerem. He was a specter of the 9th CIrcle that didn't remain in this age. Yet Gluttony wanted to release the grimoire that had turned an ordinary magician into a top-grade undead in just three months?\nHowever, Gluttony's subsequent explanation convinced him.\n'...I roughly understand your explanation. I'm to use the grimoire's space transfer to escape this place?'\nTheodore lacked proficiency in space magic, and he couldn't escape from this distorted space with his circles' overload. In that case, he should grab the tail of an escaping item. The space transfer function of the grimoire was continent-wide. Gluttony anticipated that Death's Worship would try to escape and devised a method to grab onto it. The destination might be a bit random, but Theodore nodded.\n\"Okay, let's try it.\"\nThere was no time left to worry, and he had no other options. Theodore held out his left hand with a nervous expression and opened his mouth to shout. He hoped he wasn't making a mistake here.\n\"Come out, Death's Worship!\"\nSimultaneously, a grimoire wrapped in chains emerged.\nWas it an expression of joy from its liberation, or an outburst of anger? The grimoire let out a terrible roar and exerted itself to escape from this space. Theodore could see that the grimoire wasn't affected by the distortion of space. Rather, space was bending around Death's Worship.\nAt that moment, Gluttony stretched out its tongue.\n-Where are you going alone?\n\u300a\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0...!? \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0...!\u300b\n-Shut up!\nThe grimoire struggled against the tongue that grabbed it. It didn't seem like much, but Gluttony and Death's Worship were fighting fiercely in this distorted space. Theodore watched them with a nervous face. Now, he could only maintain Dimensional Leave for 10 seconds. After that, he would be crushed by the pressure.\nHowever, Death's Worship wasn't a grimoire that could beat Gluttony.\n-Good! We are leaving here, User!\nDeath's Worship was caught by Gluttony's tongue and jumped forcefully. Theodore disappeared seconds before the distorted space was about to explode.\nAfter that, there was a tremendous wave of heat.\nThe explosion was so large that even the inhabitants of Sipoto could see it from tens of kilometers away.\nThe flames burned the clouds, and the earth screamed. Rather than a mushroom-shaped dust cloud, it was more like the eruption of an active volcano. In fact, it caused the skies of Sipoto to turn dark.\nTo add one thing, it wasn't just the space distortion which had caused this explosion. The cause had been Ragnaros, the hell ruled by Fulito the demon king.\nIt was a catastrophe which occurred when the boundary between that dimension and this material world broke down. A world where thousands of hot winds always blew and lava overflowed instead of water... It could be said that Fulito's territory eroded this land for a while.\nFortunately, there were no casualties due to the heat. It wasn't a coincidence that Theodore and Zest had clashed in the wilderness. This had been thanks to Theodore's concern that innocent people might be affected.\nA moderate amount of time passed by since the explosion, but the land didn't stop crying. The noise mixed with the sound of the wind created an eerie feeling. The same was true for someone covered in a black robe.\n\"...Finally, I found it.\"\nNo, that wasn't fear in the voice. Delight and unpleasant joy overflowed from the robed person. One of the four horsemen, the white knight spoke with trembling eyes. The eyes, exposed through the robe, were gently curved and moist, as if the person was crying.\n\"Apostle of Death. Our merciful master, who will lead us to the path of immortality...?!\"\nIt was a voice that sounded like a bell. The loud, cheerful voice resonated in the wilderness. This passion seemed unfamiliar to the person, but they weren't surprised or panicked by it. They had been waiting centuries for the resurrection of the Apostle of Death and sought his relics.\nHe was the founder of the four horsemen. It had been an extraordinary honor. In the forgotten history, he was the king of hell. He was the notorious warlock whose four horsemen tried to cover this material world with death...\nEven now, humans who learned black magic admired and feared him, and the high-ranking demons still remembered his name after thousands of years. Even so, the successors to the four horsemen couldn't recognize 'it.'\n\"Ah...! Please pardon our foolishness! The rudeness we have committed! We were stupid for not recognizing you!\" The white knight, Hipatia, bowed before all traces disappeared. \"Next time I will find you, Lord Jerim.\"\nHowever, Theodore didn't know it yet. He never thought that another puzzle piece would be inserted due to the grimoire he had taken out as an escape method. Ash powder blew into the place where Hipatia once stood. Hipatia left as soon as possible to share the good news with the other horsemen.\nIt wasn't yet known that this would lead to another incident.\nFor now, it was enough to know that the land had become devastated due to the battle between Zest Speitem and Theodore MIller, who had summoned a demon that hadn't appeared in thousands of years.\nIt was a few days later that the news of the great battle in the Sipoto wilderness was transmitted to Meltor.",

        "raw_content": "This week\u2019s round-up: Talking about decent work across Ontario\nThe Fight for $15 & Fairness has been busy this week! In Cambridge last night, the Social Planning Council of Cambridge & North Dumpfries and the House of Friendship organized a forum on employment standards and decent work. Over 60 people turned out to hear from workers in the community and their experiences of bad jobs. David talked about the reality of low pay and poor working conditions for contract workers at colleges, and speakers from the Waterloo Region Community Legal Services and from the Workers\u2019 Action Centre talked about the problems with the law and the need to organize. Marjorie talked about the need for paid sick days: because she didn\u2019t have any at her minimum wage job, she had to go to work when she was sick with pneumonia, and lost pay when she had to miss work because of a broken ankle. \u201cThey are taking away things that our grandparents fought for,\u201d Marjorie said. \u201cWe have become complacent. We have to be the ones that stand up!\u201d Read a great opinion piece on the need for #15andfairness written by one of the organizers of last night\u2019s event.\nMeanwhile, a public consultation took place yesterday in Sudbury for the government\u2019s Changing Workplaces Review (CWR). Speakers from Laurentian University, the Sudbury & District Labour Council, the Sudbury Medical Officer of Health, and the Sudbury Workers Education and Advocacy Centre (SWEAC) gave powerful testimony. They talked about the need for more regulation of the temporary staffing industry, higher wages, making it easier for workers to unionize, the need for paid sick days and better scheduling, and for all workers \u2013 full time, part time, or temporary \u2013 to get equal pay and working conditions. Dr. Penny Sutcliffe, the Sudbury Medical Officer of Health, talked about cases she has seen of workers without paid sick days going to work and infecting others, or single parents losing wages to stay home and take care of sick children. \u201cThe health-promoting or health-damaging nature of workplaces impacts all workers, their families, neighbourhoods, communities and societies,\u201d she said. Read more about the Sudbury Consultation here.\nFinally, we\u2019ve told you about the major wins that happened in the US this week, with workers in LA County, at the University of California, and in the fast-food sector in New York State winning $15 minimum wages. The New York Times editorial board came out in support of the $15 fast food minimum wage and explained the impact of this victory on future organizing: \u201cThe new fast-food wage in New York will reinforce the notion that $15 an hour is a minimally decent wage, not a symbol or an extravagance\u2026low pay dampens economic growth, worsens inequality and forces taxpayers to pick up the tab for public assistance to workers whose employers do not pay enough to get by.\u201d\nYou can join the fight. Tell the government that it\u2019s time for #15andfairness now. Email Minister of Labour Kevin Flynn, or tweet him @OntMinLabour @MPPKevinFlynn. Ask your friends, family, co-workers, and neighbours to do the same. Get involved in a Fight for $15 & Fairness event near you, or organize one yourself.",

I have lived in Gillette a majority of my adult life and am very familiar with the area and involved in the community. My fascination for the innerworkings of real estate began when I was a child and my mother remodeled and flipped homes in her free time. I found myself in the construction and drywall industry by the age of 16 and took it on as my fulltime profession after graduating high school. After years of working in the manual labor aspect of homes I realized that the passion I had for real estate was in the sales end and I could not be happier with my decision to pursue this position. In addition, I am driven and focus on making every transaction a positive, smooth experience for everyone involved. If you are in search of an agent who is equally competent and compassionate, I would love to assist you.",

        "title": "Abby the Librarian: Somehow, I Manage",
        "raw_content": "I've written about my experiences with library management before, but a lot has happened since then. I am far, far, far, far from being a perfect manager, but I feel like I am finally starting to get to where I want to be, manager-wise. We've had some staffing changes in my department over the last year, including a retirement and hiring an MLS children's librarian (the only MLS in our department besides myself). It's changed how I look at things, and so today I offer some tips from what I've learned.\nFirst, a little background: I'm the Children's Manager at a one-library system in Southern Indiana (i.e. no branches). When at full staff, I supervise three full-time and two part-time employees (we have not actually been at full staff since last spring, but hopefully we will be soon!). We recently hired an MLS children's librarian who is full time, and at present one of my part-timers holds an MLS, as well (though she is not currently in an MLS position here and her experience is in law libraries). The other full-timers are paraprofessionals.\nCC: terren in Virginia\nCelebrate the achievements of your staff and challenge them to achieve more. When you're a manager, the job's not all about YOU developing an awesome new program. It's about what your department develops, how your department as a whole serves patrons and meets goals. This has definitely been a transition for me. I've had to change from thinking about what programs I have done to make myself look good, to add to my own portfolio, to talk up in potential future job interviews to allowing my staff to take ownership of their own programs. To guide, but not take over. To help brainstorm but not dictate ideas.\nYou know what will happen when you do this? Your staff (if they are awesome like my staff) will take stuff off your plate. They will have their own ideas, they will do it their way. And you'll find yourself with free time to develop NEW ideas. You will also realize that it is not the end of the world to turn a program over to someone else, even if it is a program you really like.\nIt's important to develop your staff. They need it. If you have new librarians, they're trying to build their resumes and portfolios, too. It might be for future jobs or it might be for committee work or leadership roles in library associations or other groups. So let them plan, let them execute, let them take responsibility.\nCC: Phil_Parker\nTrain, train, train. In Indiana, we're required to earn Library Education Units to keep our certification, but that's not the only reason you should send your staff to training. Find out what your options are for sending your staff to workshops or meetings or bringing in trainers. Think about what areas you want to concentrate on over the next few years, what programs you hope your department will offer. Do you have new staff who need to take an Every Child Ready to Read workshop? Would your department benefit from someone taking an online class about STEAM programming? Make it happen. Ask your staff to share the information they learned with the rest of your department. Don't take all the professional development budget for yourself, even if your employees don't ask to attend conferences or workshops, or even if you are presenting at conferences. (Yes, I have been guilty of this!)\nDeal with problems as soon as possible. Ignoring it will NOT make it better, but will only make it harder when you do finally have to deal with it. If you're noticing it, your staff is noticing it, too, and it's probably bringing down morale and productivity. It's sometimes unpleasant to deal with problems, especially if they concern people you like. Believe me, it's not going to be any more fun to deal with six months from now and it's not going to get better on its own.\nGoing along with that: document, document, document! It can be hard to see a pattern of bad behavior over a period of weeks or months unless you're keeping track.\nDocument the good stuff, too. We do yearly evaluations and it is always so helpful to be able to turn to my files and have examples at hand of good things my employees have done. This may also show you employees' strengths and weaknesses, which is helpful for when you consider moving duties around or taking on new projects. If you get compliments from patrons about your staff members, send 'em up to your boss. Not only is it a great practice to brag on your employees, but it reflects well on your department, too.\nGo to your boss or a mentor for help. I am lucky to have a very supportive administration, including the new director we got a year and a half ago and a super human resources manager. You also might have a mentor or colleagues at your library (other department heads) or in your library community (another great reason to be active in state and national library associations!) you can turn to. I know not everyone is as lucky as I am, but if you find yourself with those resources, USE THEM. No librarian is an island and you don't have to deal with problems on your own.\nCC: tanakawho\nPlan, plan, plan. Last spring and summer we were dealing with some staffing issues and I felt like I was flying by the seat of my pants when it came to planning the Summer Reading Club. I sat down in May or so and planned the next 12 months, including programs and programming breaks, deadlines for Summer Reading Club tasks and program calenders, and agenda items for monthly meetings. It's hard to get us all together for meetings, but it's important to me to stay on track.\nI started with the kick-off date for the 2013 Summer Reading Club and thought about how fan in advance I'd like each task to be completed so that I could make our deadlines. For example, we visit the schools to talk up SRC and distribute calendars in May, so our program calendar needs to be completed, proofread, and run off by mid-April. That means all our program assignments, dates, and blurbs need to be finished by the beginning of April, etc. Once I had deadlines for program calendars and SRC tasks, I went through month by month to outline agenda items for the monthly meetings. Of course, we add any additional agenda items we need to when it comes time for the meeting.\nAnd yes, I wrote down in my plans when it's time to write out plans for the next year. ;)\nThose are some of the things I've learned over the past year of managing my children's department. I am still (always) polishing my skills and striving to communicate clearly and often. I know there is lots of room for improvement.

        "raw_content": "If I Was Your Girl by Meredith Russo (Grades 7+). Flatiron Books, May 2016. Review copy provided by my local library.\nAmanda is starting over. She's moved to a small town in Tennessee to live with her dad and fly under the radar as she completes her senior year of high school. She dreams of getting into NYU and leaving the South for good. She doesn't plan on making friends or going to football games or bringing any attention to herself whatsoever.\nIf the other kids at her high school knew the truth about her, Amanda's pretty sure she knows how it would go. If everyone knew that she was assigned male at birth and had only recently transitioned to female, she's pretty sure everyone would freak out. So she keeps her secret. And stays under the radar.\nBut it's not that simple. This is, after all, Amanda's first chance to really live the way she was meant to live. To live without being bullied, to live as her true self. And she finds herself making friends and going to football games and falling in love... knowing that as easy as anything it could all fall to pieces around her.\nThis is a powerful and important book. I know that Amanda's story is going to stick with me for a long time. At its heart, it's a book about first love, a book about finally finding the place where you fit in and you feel free. It's a book about being the new kid, albeit with a complication that most new kids may not have to worry about. It's also a book about a girl connecting with her father, the father who she never really related to, a father who is imperfect but trying to accept this new situation.\nThe author of this book is a trans woman and pieces of the story are based on her own experiences. Meredith Russo is able to incorporate some \"teachable moments\" (for lack of a better term) in a way that seems organic to the story. For example, when she eventually confides in a friend, Amanda is very clear about a few types of questions NOT to task (don't ask about genitals - it's none of your business, etc.).\nI appreciate that Russo leaves us with two notes - a note to cisgender readers explaining that this book about a trans experience does not stand for ALL trans experiences and particularly outlining some points where she stretched reality to make the story work more smoothly. And she includes a note to trans readers, reaching out to let them know they are not alone.\nThis is Meredith Russo's first novel and I hope to see much more from her.\nI would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves realistic, contemporary fiction. I would also recommend it to folks interested in reading about the trans experience. This is an important book for us to have on library shelves and to display and to share with teens.\nBeing Jazz: My Life as a (Transgender) Teen by Jazz Jennings. In her memoir, Jazz shares her story of growing up as a transgender teen.\nBeautiful Music for Ugly Children by Kirstin Cronn-Mills. Elizabeth was assigned female at birth, but she has always known she is a boy. When she gets the opportunity to do her own late night radio show, she decides to take the plunge and host the show as her true self, Gabe.\nLabels: contemporary, glbt, ya fiction\ncontemporary|glbt|ya fiction|",

        "raw_content": "Drug Rehab and Treatment Centers Information Easthampton Town, Massachusetts\nLooking for Drug Rehab and treatment centers in Easthampton Town, Massachusetts?\nThere are several drug and alcohol rehab centers options available to individuals residing in the Easthampton Town area. You will need to recognize all the types of rehabilitation choices that exist in Easthampton Town, AB., in order to find the ideal treatment option for yourself or a family member. Selecting the most appropriate drug rehab center in Easthampton Town is a vital factor in the process of treating of substance abuse, addiction and alcoholism. The following info will assist you to understand your numerous rehab choices so that you have the highest possibility of an ideal end result.\nLet's examine the many alcohol and drug rehab centers in Easthampton Town, Massachusetts possibilities that correlate with the condition of the individual seeking treatment.\nInpatient alcohol and drug rehab in Easthampton Town, AB. is often a rehab possibility ideal for people who require health-related treatment for the duration of rehabilitation or individuals with substantial substance abuse histories. Men and women will experience physical and mental dependence to drugs and alcohol even after a short period of time, so inpatient drug and alcohol treatment in Easthampton Town is regarded as the most reliable treatment possibility in almost all situations. As a result of dependence and addiction, men and women will most likely not be able to make a full recovery with the minimal solutions available from outpatient treatment centers in Easthampton Town, Massachusetts where alcohol and drugs are still easily obtainable when they leave the outpatient program. Likewise, people in rehabilitation who receive outpatient rehab rather than inpatient drug and alcohol treatment in Easthampton Town continue to be susceptible to damaging relationships and circumstances that might compromise their recovery process. If someone resides with an abusive partner or maintains associations which entail abusing drugs, any rehabilitation endeavours in outpatient rehabilitation will be in vain. This is the reason in-patient drug and alcohol rehab in Easthampton Town, AB. will generate more beneficial results that will prove lasting contrary to an outpatient drug treatment facility where benefits could be very minimal and acute.\nIn Easthampton Town there is both short-term and long-term inpatient drug rehabilitation. Short-term is a 30-day center, while long-term inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Easthampton Town, Massachusetts is much more prolonged and treatment lasts 3 to 6 months generally speaking. It is deemed an ideal environment for clients because it is a safe and secure drug-free setting where they are able to recover both physically and mentally without distraction. Ideally, people proceed inside a long-term in-patient drug rehabilitation program in Easthampton Town for the maximum time period permitted, in order to deal with anything which can jeopardize their abstinence after they leave rehabilitation. Due to the fact detoxing and becoming physically stabilized can take a couple weeks alone, the three to six months in long-term in-patient drug and alcohol rehab in Easthampton Town will be time well spent and much more effective than short-term facilities.\nThe most important aspect of all if you or someone you love has a drug abuse or addiction concern is to get it resolved right away, call someone and seek the advice of skilled addiction specialists and get an assessment and rehabilitation options to guarantee the biggest opportunity for a full recovery.\nThere are no local drug rehab listings for Easthampton Town, Massachusetts so we have provided the 6 closest treatment facilities arranged by distance from Easthampton Town:\n(Easthampton is 1.2 from Easthampton Town)\n(Northampton is 4.4 from Easthampton Town)\n(Holyoke is 4.6 from Easthampton Town)\nContact CHD , by calling 413-532-1456 x301.\nOutpatient Drug Treatment Programs, Drug Treatment for Dual Diagnosis Clients, Drug Rehabs For Senior Citizens, Drug Rehab Programs For Hearing Impaired Clients, Drug Rehab Centers For Spanish Speaking Clients\nIn 2009, during their most recent treatment in the past year, 2.9 million persons aged 12 or older reported receiving treatment for alcohol use, and 1.2 million persons reported receiving treatment for marijuana use. Accordingly, estimates on receiving treatment for the use of other drugs were 787,000 persons for cocaine, 739,000 for pain relievers, 517,000 for stimulants, 507,000 for heroin, 443,000 for hallucinogens, and 421,000 for tranquilizers. None of these estimates changed significantly between 2008 and 2009 except that the numbers who received treatment for the use of marijuana or hallucinogens in 2009 were higher than in 2008 (947,000 or 287,000, respectively). The numbers who received treatment for the use of alcohol, heroin, hallucinogens, tranquilizers, stimulants, and pain relievers all increased between 2002 and 2009; the numbers who received treatment for marijuana and cocaine were stable. (Note that respondents could indicate that they received treatment for more than one substance during their most recent treatment.)\nIn 2009, the number of persons aged 12 or older needing treatment for an illicit drug use problem was 7.8 million (3.1 percent of the total population). Of these, 1.5 million (0.6 percent of the total population and 19.1 percent of the persons who needed treatment) received treatment at a specialty facility for an illicit drug use problem in the past year. Thus, there were 6.4 million persons (2.5 percent of the total population) who needed but did not receive treatment at a specialty facility for an illicit drug use problem in 2009. None of these estimates changed significantly between 2008 and 2009. The percentage of persons needing treatment for an illicit drug use problem remained stable between 2002 (3.3 percent) and 2009 (3.1 percent).",

I then started a new career in procurement and project management for health and social services, which included a large project developing housing for older people.\n\u201cSix years ago I took time out to regain my work-life balance and enjoyed volunteering. I\u2019m now Bid and Implementation Manager for Greenbrook Healthcare, which provides NHS GP and nurse urgent care services.\n\u201cIt was during my time as a commissioner of mental health services that I first heard about The Advocacy Project. I have a strong interest in mental health, as well as a lot of experience working across different service areas. I genuinely wanted to contribute and felt I could give a lot to the organisation. I bring my knowledge of how the system works: having been a commissioner, I know my way around local authorities and commissioning agencies which is very helpful.\n\u201cAs trustees, our role is to develop the core strategy, provide oversight, ensure solvency and support and challenge the chief executive. The staff put all this into practice, operationally and tactically.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really important we have good commercial acumen. We need to ask ourselves: are we doing what people who use our services want? How do we employ experts to deliver this work? And how do we make sure we are successful?\n\u201cOur aim as an organisation is to help put the voices of those who use our services at the heart of delivery and decision making. We put this into practice by having people on the board who have personal experience of our services. Quite often, having more diverse views can make it more challenging to come to an agreed position \u2013 but once we get there, we know our decisions are more informed.\n\u201cIn my free time, I volunteer at the Barnes Wetland Centre, helping out building walls and enjoying watching the wildlife. I also enjoy football and support Ipswich Town, Queens Park Rangers and Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club.\u201d",

The series examines the integral role slavery played in shaping the new country's development, challenging the long held notion that it was exclusively a Southern enterprise. Through the remarkable stories of individual slaves, Slavery and the Making of America offers fresh perspectives on the slave experience and testifies to the active role that Africans and African Americans took in surviving their bondage and shaping their own lives.\nLength: 188 minutes on 1 Disc",

San Diego State won, 17-3. (Craig Kohlruss/Fresno Bee/TNS)( CRAIG KOHLRUSS )\nFresno State will square off against the Alabama Crimson Tide at Tuscaloosa's Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday, despite a California ban that prevents public money from being spent on travel to the state.\nThis weekend's game will be played due to a loophole that allows travel if it's related to contracts signed before Jan. 1- the date California's first travel bans went into effect. The state initially prohibited publicly funded travel to North Carolina, Kansas, Mississippi and Tennessee; Alabama, Kentucky, South Dakota and Texas were added in June.\nCalifornia's law - AB 1887 - prohibits state-sponsored travel to areas with \"laws that authorize or require discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression or same-sex couples,\" according to the State's Attorney General. It applies to all state agencies and departments, as well as public universities.\nAn opinion on whether the ban applies to university sports teams - particularly coaches - has yet to be issued by AG Xavier Becerra. The opinion specifically asks if the ban applies to University of California and California State University athletic team staffs. At stake are future athletic events and the decision - as Fresno State President Joseph Castro said in a recent interview - will impact some unlikely university activities.\n\"We have a meat judging team which is one of the best in the country,\" Castro said. \"They will need to travel to some of these states to compete. We will want them to travel to some of these states to compete. That's part of their educational development.\"\nCastro said the school will fund trips with private money when possible.\n\"It will be a matter of looking how important it is and then if we have the funding from a private source to cover it. If we don't or if it's not an imperative opportunity, then we may decide not to go,\" he said.\nAccording to the California law, the travel ban will continue \"while any such law that discriminates on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression remains in effect.\"\nIn the meantime, exceptions to the ban are being made.\nCalifornia has sent eight search-and-rescue units, as well as teams from the California National Guard, to Texas to assist with recovery from Hurricane Harvey.",

        "raw_content": "News & Events News 2018 September Heritage Month 2018\nLa Bamba filmmaker headlines Heritage Month\nEach year, our nation comes together in September to celebrate the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. What began as Hispanic Heritage Week in 1968 was expanded in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15, now known as Hispanic Heritage Month.\nAt Palo Alto College, one of our strategic priorities is to create and sustain a culture of inclusiveness. With 82 percent of our students identifying themselves as part of an ethnic or racial minority group, we encourage our community to embrace diverse perspectives. To join the national celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Palo Alto College will honor the indigenous heritages of South Texas during the 2018 Heritage Month through Oct. 12 with a series of free events including live music, panel discussions, film screenings, author readings, and more.\nOn Thursday, Sept. 20, renowned American playwright, actor, and film director Luis Valdez shared his experience as a Mexican American/Chicano activist and artist. Known as the \u201cgodfather of Chicano theater,\u201d Valdez was one of the original organizers of the United Farm Workers union and is best known for his stage-to-film adaptation, Zoot Suit and blockbuster film La Bamba. In 2016, Valdez was awarded the National Medal of Arts by President Barack Obama, along with other notable recipients including Morgan Freeman, Berry Gordy, and Sandra Cisneros.\nNational Voter Registration Day on Tuesday, Sept. 25, will include a special film screening of Willie Vel\u00e1squez: Su Voto es Su Voz (Your Vote is Your Voice), whichtells the story of the Texas voting rights activist who founded the Southwest Voter Registration and Education Project (SVREP) through grassroots efforts, which changed the Latino voting landscape in Texas and throughout the nation. A student pl\u00e1tica following the film screening will be facilitated by Lydia Camarillo, executive director for SVREP.\nArtist Ernesto Cuevas, Jr., will speak about the history of muralism in Mexican/Mexican American art as well as his work using muralism as a tool for community organizing during his presentation on Monday, Oct. 1. Using cultural themes in his work as a painter, educator, graphic designer, and illustrator, Cuevas focuses on projects that have a positive impact on our community.\nWhile Columbus Day traditionally honors the significance of Christopher Columbus\u2019 journey to the Americas, Indigenous People\u2019s Day honors the heritage and contributions of our indigenous ancestors. During a special event on Monday, Oct. 8, the Tehuan Band of Mission Indians \u2013 who are direct descendants of the San Jose Mission Indians \u2013 will provide a blessing, dance/drumming circle, and craft/art exhibit.\nAll events are free and open to the public, and a full list can be accessed online at alamo.edu/pac/heritage-month.\nAs we take time to learn about our nation\u2019s history, it\u2019s imperative to recognize the achievements and remember the struggles faced by our ancestors. By doing so, we\u2019ll all gain a better understanding of our differences and backgrounds that ultimately make us one community.",

        "raw_content": "The period of maternal investment in Steller sea lions is the most energetically demanding, and is a critical period for adequate food intake in both mothers and their dependent pups. Disruptions in securing adequate energy during this period have direct consequences to reproductive success of both females and pups, ultimately impacting population levels. Unfortunately, little is known about the energetics of this period in Steller sea lions. To investigate the role adult female\u2019s energetic requirements surrounding maternal investment plays in population trends, the Alaska SeaLife Center Marine Mammal Research team has joined with Dr. Rosen, a scientist out of Vancouver Aquarium, to investigate the energetic requirements of pregnancy and lactation by calculating a resting metabolic rate in adult females and their offspring. This study will determine the costs of gestation, lactation, and growth by measuring the metabolism, energy intake, and morphology of pregnant and lactating Steller sea lions and their pups. The resulting information will inform bioenergetic models that will help define the potential effects of changes in the environment on Steller sea lion population trajectories",

When working on my previous video 'leap of faith', I started working on this video side by side.\nThis is a very simple video and i'm not sure if the idea will be fun or entertaining for everyone but having thought of it and wanting to make it for long, I decided to complete it and it turned out fine close to what I wanted. So let me know if you like and enjoy it. I hope you find this pleasing and fun. Be sure to check my recent video too more videos soon to follow.",

It became a veritable source of inspiration for the artists of the epoch. Classical art was based on a highly ordered structure with cold colours and a mastery of composition that promoted an art based on reason, grandeur, and power. Nature and antiquity were the main sources of inspiration for classical art. The painters Le Brun, Poussin, and Philippe de Champaigne strove to perfect outlines and forms. Chiaroscuro employed the contrasts between shade and intense light.\nAs of 1600, Baroque art emerged. Curves, counter-curves, and diagonals created a greater sense of movement, and the three-dimensionality of objects and figures. Warm colours improved the expression of emotions and passions. Rococo art emerged in France at the end of seventeenth century. The rocaille style focused on the way of life at the royal Court: preciosity, refinement, games, intimacy, eternal beauty, love, courtesy, and pastoral idylls all highlighted the Rococo style.",

It also says that Fox issued a default notice in a bid to terminate the contract which was \u201centirely consistent with Disney wanting to kill the deal.\u201d\nHowever, Fox filed its own counter claim on Wednesday in which it accuses Genting Malaysia of breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.\nThe claim seeks a monetary sum of US$46.4 million relating to annual license fees, guarantee amounts, royalties and travel reimbursements pursuant to the Memorandum of Agreement dated 1 June 2013, plus damages and costs.\nIn response, Genting Malaysia said it is in the process of reviewing the counter claim with its legal team.\nGenting stated in November that it has already invested around US$750 million into the theme park project.",

        "raw_content": "Native Coloradan Pete McBride has spent two decades studying the world with a camera. A self-taught, award-winning photographer, writer and filmmaker, he has traveled on assignment to over 70 countries for the publications of the National Geographic Society, Smithsonian, Outside, Esquire, Audubon, Stern, GEO and companies like Patagonia, Microsoft, The Nature Conservancy and more.\nAfter a decade working abroad and completing a Knight fellowship for journalism at Stanford University, Pete decided to focus his cameras closer to home on a subject closer to his heart. Combining his passion for aviation and his belief in conservation, he spent over four years documenting his backyard river \u2014 the Colorado. This journey culminated in a coffee table book: \u201cThe Colorado River: Flowing Through Conflict\u201d, and a series of short films \u201cChasing Water\u201d, \u201cI AM RED\u201d and \u201cDelta Dawn\u201d. He now focuses his lenses and energies on watershed issues and related stories around the world to raise awareness about freshwater challenges. He also recently joined the board of Protect Our Winters.\nWhen not lost on assignment or doing public speaking, you can find McBride exploring the creeks and mountains in the Rocky Mountains, or practicing mandolin on his back porch in Colorado.\nYou can see samples of Pete\u2019s work at: www.petemcbride.com.\n\u201cAlways This Late\"\nQ: What are you most passionate about professionally? What most excites you about your work & the contribution you can make?\nA: I have been working on climate change for close to 20 years. The snowsports community--which is passionate, environmentally conscious, newsworthy, and sometimes famous--can be an influential part of a broader social movement on climate change that creates the political will for action. Pushing on this, and being part of a solution to a great problem, that's really exciting to me.\nQ: Where can we find you when you\u2019re not working? What\u2019s your favorite way to spend a weekend or a Sunday afternoon?\nA: My absolute favorite thing is to go backpacking with my family, and on any given weekend I'll be outside with them, if not camping the hiking, climbing, running rivers, or just walking around the neighborhood.\nQ: What would be impossible for you to give up?\nA: Reading and writing. I read constantly and widely--novels, nonfiction, magazines like the New York Review of Books, Rolling Stone (for climate and political reporting), everything. And I'm regularly blown away by new ideas and great writing. It keeps the ideas flowing, and when I have good ideas, I write about them. Couldn't give that up.\nQ: How old were you when you learned to ski/ride?\nA: I grew up in the city and didn't learn to ski until high school. I was probably 16, and I wouldn't call what I did \"skiing,\" but I made it happen by force of will, riding a bus four hours on the weekend to Hunter Mountain or Sugarbush. I only really learned how to ski in Aspen.\nQ: Which of the four Aspen Snowmass mountains is your favorite?\nA: Highlands. I love the bowl, the family feeling, the fact that I know everyone on the slopes. Plus there's history: the Highlander pass used to be what I could afford, so I've always skied there.",

        "raw_content": "FDA posts final guidance for new 510(k) pathway\nJanuary 23, 2019 -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published its final guidance on a new regulatory pathway that would allow manufacturers to show that their medical devices meet specific performance criteria to achieve 510(k) clearance.\nInstead of the traditional 510(k) process requiring that vendors show their product has \"substantial equivalence\" to a specific previously cleared device, the FDA's new Safety and Performance Based Pathway would enable manufacturers of new devices to demonstrate aspects of substantial equivalence by showing that a new device meets FDA-identified performance criteria that reflect current technological principles and the safety and performance of modern predicate devices, according to the FDA.\nThis model expands upon the approach used in the FDA's Abbreviated 510(k) program. The FDA noted that it may request and review underlying data and testing methodologies to determine under this program whether a new device is substantially equivalent.\nThe FDA also said that it intends to periodically review device types and applicable performance criteria to ensure they remain appropriate. The final guidance can be found on the FDA's website. Device types and applicable performance criteria will be shared in future guidances.\nSeparately, the FDA is requesting comments on approaches to drive companies to develop and offer patients devices with the latest technological advances. Specifically, the FDA is requesting feedback on the following questions:\nShould the FDA make public a list of devices or manufacturers that make technologies that rely on predicates that have been on the market for more than a certain number of years (e.g., 10 years)? If so, what would be an appropriate period of time?\nShould the FDA consider using other criteria to inform its point of reference?\nAre there other actions the FDA should take to promote the use of more modern predicates?\nShould the FDA consider certain actions that might require new authority, such as making at least some older devices ineligible as predicates?\nComments on these topics must be submitted to the FDA docket by April 22.",

        "title": "Harrison Ford Praised for Response in Crash Landing | Alliance for Aviation Across America",
        "raw_content": "Dan Weikel, Joseph Serna and Matt Stevens LOS ANGELES TIMES\nHarrison Ford Praised for Response in Crash Landing\nEvery few years, a small propeller plane from Santa Monica Airport crashes in a residential area. They have hit streets, garages, an apartment house carport and occasionally a home.\nOn Thursday, it happened again. Only this time actor Harrison Ford avoided houses and crash-landed his vintage military trainer in the only open space near the runway \u2014 the Penmar Golf Course in Venice.\nFrom the accounts of pilots and flight instructors, Ford, 72, an avid aviator, did exactly what he was trained to do during an engine failure. Without power, he was able to keep up his speed, turn back and head over Penmar, just southwest of the airport.\n\u201cHe did an excellent job,\u201d said Liz Destaffany, who has been a flight instructor for about 10 years in the Los Angeles area. \u201cYou try to do a controlled descent, maintain airspeed and look for a safe place to land. The techniques are the same for Capt. Sully Sullenberger and a small-plane pilot.\u201d\nFord, who is best known for his roles in the \u201cStar Wars\u201d and Indiana Jones movies, had taken off from Santa Monica Airport on Thursday afternoon and headed west. Moments into the flight, he radioed that his engine had failed and air traffic controllers cleared him to return to the airport. He didn\u2019t make it.\nAs Ford descended over Penmar, the plane clipped a tree. Pilots said it appeared that he stalled the plane close to the ground to slow down. A few second later, he pancaked onto the green fairway turf. A chain-link fence and about 50 yards separated the crash site from a block of houses. The silver and yellow Ryan PT-22 Recruit stayed upright and intact.\nFord\u2019s head was bloodied, but the injuries were not life-threatening. As bystanders carefully extracted him from the little monoplane, a dazed Ford asked, \u201cWhere am I?\u201d recalled Dr. Sanjay Khurana, a spinal surgeon who witnessed the crash from about 50 yards away.\nFord \u201cperformed a textbook forced landing,\u201d said David Shaby, who has been a pilot for 35 years and flies a twin-engine Cessna out of Santa Monica. \u201cI\u2019ve heard the outcry about how close he was to homes, but where he put the plane down was the safest spot and it was calculated by him to land there.\u201d\nAccording to Santa Monica flight instructor Jeff Martin, Ford had few options and made the right choice when he picked the golf course, which pilots know can be used for emergencies especially during takeoffs, when the vast majority of engine failures occur.\nMartin, who has been flying for 20 years, said there are three choices in Santa Monica for pilots facing a life-and-death situation: Lincoln Boulevard, the beach and Penmar.\nPilots contend that the golf course is the most ideal and makes Santa Monica safer than some other local airports that don\u2019t have ample open space nearby.\nMartin estimated that three or four planes have landed safely on the links in the last 10 years. In July 2010, however, a pilot was killed when he tried to make an emergency landing there.\nFord \u201cdid the best thing he could\u2019ve done,\u201d Martin said, \u201cand he did the thing I\u2019ve feared having to do every time I depart from there in a single-engine airplane.\u201d\nMartin, pilots and other flight instructors say that becoming proficient in emergency procedures is an integral part of flight training and is required by the Federal Aviation Administration to obtain and renew a pilot\u2019s license.\nTo maintain their certifications, pilots must be reexamined every 24 months by flight instructors and demonstrate their ability to handle emergencies such as malfunctioning instruments and engine trouble. Pilots also can pursue additional flight training on their own \u2014 something pilots say Ford has done.\nDestaffany said that in the event of an engine failure, she instructs her students to maintain airspeed by pitching the plane\u2019s nose down to establish a steady descent. Pilots should look for a spot to land and communicate with air traffic control.\nIf time permits, the fuel level and ignition should be checked for any obvious problems that can be corrected quickly. Pilots also must be high enough to make big turns like Ford made or risk losing altitude.\n\u201cWe practice the procedures until you get a trained response, where the steps come almost automatically,\u201d Destaffany said.\nAlthough Ford came down on Penmar, anti-airport activists and local elected officials who have battled to shut down Santa Monica Airport reiterated that its proximity to densely populated neighborhoods makes it unsafe and a nuisance because of aircraft emissions and noise.\nSome of those arguments \u2014 particularly noise \u2014 have been made by residents surrounding other urban airports in the region, such as those in Fullerton, Long Beach and Van Nuys.\nAccording to the National Transportation Safety Board and news reports, at least 11 planes, none of them jets, have crashed in residential areas in Santa Monica and West Los Angeles since 1982. Although pilots and passengers were killed and injured in some of those accidents, no one on the ground has died or been seriously hurt.\nAn additional 31 accidents, both major and minor, have occurred on the airport grounds, in the ocean, on Penmar golf course and at a Venice intersection. The only jet crash occurred in September 2013, when a Cessna Citation crashed into a hangar after landing.\nThe accidents have caused the deaths of 25 pilots and passengers. An additional 16 pilots and passengers have been hurt, and 19 accidents did not result in death or injury.\n\u201cMore pedestrians and bicyclists have been killed and injured on Santa Monica streets than aviators or people on the ground,\u201d said Mark Smith, a veteran pilot who flies a single-engine Mooney 231 out of Santa Monica Airport. \u201cI\u2019m more afraid on Interstate 405 than in the air.\u201d\nOn Friday, work crews disassembled Ford\u2019s plane while the NTSB continued its investigation.\nAt a news conference near the damaged Ryan PT-22, Patrick Jones, an NTSB investigator, discussed the crash landing and the safety of Santa Monica Airport\nIf the NTSB believed that Santa Monica Airport was dangerous, Jones said, the agency would speak out about it. He added that the airport was not unique and is one of many in the country that is located in a congested area.\nOf Ford\u2019s flying skill, Jones said, \u201cThere are many times that people make successful landings and this is one of them\u2026. When you take off from an airport and you need to return to that airport, you have to pick the best spots there are, and this was apparently the best spot.\u201d\nhttp://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-harrison-ford-crash-20150307-story.html#page=1",

(Photo11: Rural Metro Fire)\nThree women were rescued from a vehicle that was stranded in a running wash Wednesday morning in Cave Creek, according to fire officials.\nRural Metro Fire crews received a report about 5:30 a.m. of three people trapped in running water 52nd Street and Cahava Ranch Road in Cave Creek, according to Shawn Gilleland, a spokesman for Rural Metro Fire.\nBecause of the location of the vehicle, the fast moving water and the hazardous conditions, crews requested help from a Maricopa County Sheriff Office's Fox helicopter, he said in an email.\n\"Pilots determined the vehicle was too close to large trees, and so our swift water crew was flown to the opposite bank where the vehicle was about 10-15 feet into the water,\" Gilleland said in the email.\nThe crews formed a team, waded out to the vehicle in the water and safely rescued the three women, according to Gilleland.\nThe women were treated for hypothermia. No injuries were reported.\nThe National Weather Service in Phoenix issued a small stream flood advisory around 7 a.m. Wednesday for Maricopa County, in south central Arizona. Cave Creek is in the area affected by the advisory.\nRead or Share this story: https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/scottsdale-breaking/2019/02/06/3-rescued-vehicle-stuck-cave-creek-wash/2788314002/",

The team visited Boffi showrooms and many others to provide a first-hand feel of the materials and designs available to compliment and complete their bespoke build.\nAdvised by the Baca team at every stage, the clients were allowed to gain first-hand experience of the high-quality, largely Italian, materials. Marbles, ceramics, woods and metals were sampled, along with the latest in innovative computer aided finishes. The trip helped to understand the potential options available to them in order to aid their making informed decisions about every aspect of the finish of their house, and thus realise their true vision.\nFinding themselves next door to the home of another ambassador of design and beauty, the legendary Ferrari, the party attended an exhibition of Formula 1 Championship Single-Seaters. Iconic Mercedes, Lotus, Ferrari, and other machines from Formula 1 Championships between 1950 and1994, that were driven by the likes of Fangio, Jim Clark and Ayrton Senna, were the perfect compliment to a day exploring luxury, prestige and design excellence.",

        "raw_content": "With 'Duck Dynasty' in his rear view, Jase Robertson talks about the future of Duck Commander, its partnership with Benelli and the heart of America.\nPhoto by John Hafner\n\u201cI was 7 or 8 years old the first time I went out shooting, and my family taught me to respect guns. The first time I was able to shoot while hunting was with a magnum 12 gauge\u2014that\u2019s a pretty big gun. But I loved it, and I\u2019ve been shooting and hunting ever since.\u201d\n\u201cWhile we\u2019re sad to see \u2018Duck Dynasty\u2019 end, it does mean we\u2019re going to have a lot more time to do other things. It\u2019s fun right now to figure out what we\u2019re going to do. I know it will involve Duck Commander and hunting.\u201d\n\u201cLike all duck hunters, my best day is always tomorrow.\u201d\nIn today\u2019s economy, few people get to do what they love, but Jase Robertson has a love of life, work and family. The American TV star became famous for the A&E reality series \u201cDuck Dynasty\u201d, which highlighted the trials and tribulations of his close-knit family and their business, Duck Commander.\nThe show was a hit on A&E, breaking ratings records for the network and launching the Robertson men\u2014brothers Phil and Si, and Phil\u2019s sons Jase, Willie and Jep\u2014into the mainstream.\nAlthough \u201cDuck Dynasty\u201c concluded its run in 2017 after 11 seasons, Duck Commander recently finalized a shotgun wedding of sorts with Benelli. The shotgun maker had previously been a title sponsor of Benelli Presents Duck Commander, the Robertsons\u2019 previous show on the Outdoor Channel, and was instrumental in the global launch of the Duck Commander brand. The companies will continue to work together with a common goal of providing hunters and shooters quality products.\nQ&A with Jase Robertson\nWe recently had a chance to talk to Jase, now the COO of Duck Commander, to learn more about his family\u2019s past and future.\nIs it safe to say there is more for hunters to be thankful for given that Hillary Clinton isn\u2019t in the White House?\nOh yeah. I think Mr. Trump is doing a good job as our president. I had the pleasure of taking Donald Trump Jr. hunting last year.\nYou have some history with the Trump family?\nThat we do. It\u2019s kind of a famous story now between our two families. We were in New York promoting the show, and I had to use the bathroom, so I went into a Trump-owned hotel. It was very nice, but I got escorted out because the security thought I was a vagrant. They weren\u2019t fans of the show. But afterward, the Trump family found out, and we got on quite well. I\u2019ve played golf with Donald Jr. and his brother, Eric.\nHave you ever gotten the chance to go shooting with the Trump family?\nI actually have. Don Jr. is quite a shot and did quite well. It was really a pleasure to shoot with the Trumps.\nYou\u2019re part of the Robertson family, so you obviously grew up around hunting. How did it all start for you?\nDuck Commander and Benelli are working together again. What can you tell us about this renewed partnership?\nHonestly, I\u2019m thrilled that we\u2019ve joined forces again. We owe a lot of our success to Benelli.\nBenelli was one of the first sponsors you guys had when you started making duck-hunting videos, correct?\nThat was how we were discovered. We did the first Duck Commander in 1987, and not much happened. We hunt every day, and we reached out to a few companies and basically said, \u201cSend us your products and we\u2019ll use them in our videos.\u201d Companies then started to come to us, and Benelli was the sponsor of our first show.\nSan Jose Sniper: Guns & Philanthropy with Top NHL Defenseman Brent Burns\nYou did a commercial with Benelli, but it didn\u2019t go as planned. What happened?\nNot at all. We were shooting their shotguns, and they wanted a commercial. They had a script with lines that my dad was supposed to say. He just looked it over and said, \u201cI got it.\u201d Then they turned on the camera, and my father, instead of reading the lines, said, \u201cThe best shotgun is the one that goes boom, boom, boom!\u201d Benelli loved it and said that slogan is better than anything they had. This proved that we knew what we were doing and were really good off the cuff. From there, we did the show. I have used different shotguns, but I wanted to get back with them, and we\u2019re happy to be home.\nWhat makes a Benelli shotgun special?\nThat\u2019s simple. The No. 1 thing is that Benellis are easy to disassemble. Honestly, the only time I clean my Benelli shotgun is after I hunt when it is pouring down rain. No matter what you do, everything gets wet, and that is not good for a shotgun. Benellis are easy to clean. They disassemble in about 15 seconds, and with a couple of squirts of oil, I\u2019ve had no issues. I\u2019ve been shooting with these for almost 10 years.\nDo you consider yourself a gun guy?\nI have to admit, people think I\u2019m a firearms expert, but I\u2019m not. I can shoot guns quite well, and I\u2019m really into hunting, but when it comes to breaking down a shotgun, I\u2019m not as confident.\nSo you\u2019re a hunter first and foremost. Is it safe to say there are only two times a year: hunting season and the rest of the year?\nThat is very true. We hunt 70 days each year. A lot of it is in Louisiana these days, but we hunt anywhere we can.\nYou must have a lot of memorable days afield, but are there any that stand out? Maybe tell us about the best and worst days.\nThe worst hunt I\u2019ve been on has to be when I was a teen hunting with Uncle Si, and we didn\u2019t fire a shot from daylight to dawn. He also made us lunch from various nearby critters that caused irreversible damage. Like all duck hunters, my best day is always tomorrow.\nWhat about other firearms? What is your take on so-called \u201cblack guns\u201d?\nI do own an AR-15 and shoot it often.\nIs there a particular gun that you couldn\u2019t live without?\nNo. The reason I own a variety of weapons is so I can continue living with them.\nThere are people that watch the show that never picked up a firearm, so how do you handle taking out the new guy shooting the first time?\nDraconian Gun Laws Can\u2019t Stop NY-Based Dark Storm Industries\nThe best way to treat the new guy in the blind is to give him a thorough safety briefing, say a prayer and put a lot of brush on top of him.\nFew people get to have their passion for life be their business, but for the Robertson family, your passion and business are one and the same.\nYes, but it took effort to get there. My dad made the first duck call in 1972, when I was just 3 years old. He had a design, and for two years he traded fish\u2014he was a commercial fisherman at the time\u2014with a friend who had the machines to turn the wood.\nThat first call was patented, and the Duck Commander company came from there?\nThat\u2019s right. My dad got his own equipment in 1975 and tore down a wall in the house. I was a little kid, and I watched the machinery go into the building. We grew the business from there.\nYou\u2019ll keep making the calls in America?\nIt is important to us that we support anything going on in the United States. Anyone who knows our family knows we support American business, and we support the military. It is because of the military that we\u2019re the great country we are today. What is unfortunate is that all this outsourcing has made it difficult for our businesses to survive. It seems that a lot of businesses have felt penalized by making products in America and have had to go overseas. It shouldn\u2019t be that way. I\u2019m glad it is headed in the right direction again.\nHunting isn\u2019t just about the sport\u2014it\u2019s literally about putting food on the table. Do you have any favorite recipes to share, and if you could only eat one type of wild game, what would it be?\nIf I had to pick one, it would definitely be frog legs. As for a recipe, I\u2019ll give you a quick one for green-winged teal wraps:\nButterfly the duck breasts and soak them in saltwater brine for two days.\nStuff the duck breasts with cream cheese and some jalape\u00f1o pepper slices.\nCover each breast with a rib rub.\nWrap the breasts in bacon, secured with a toothpick.\nCook them on a charcoal grill until the bacon is crispy on both sides.\nFinish them with a honey glaze.\nMake sure you don\u2019t eat the toothpick.\nNow that the show has wound down, what\u2019s next for you guys?\nWe recently came out with Jase Robertson Pro Series duck calls. I asked to have my name on the new line, and even though I was kidding, the guys went ahead with it. I love it that much. Basically, I hunt with and design these calls. That is what I do.\nWhile we\u2019re sad to see \u201cDuck Dynasty\u201d end, it does mean we\u2019re going to have a lot more time to do other things. It\u2019s fun right now to figure out what we\u2019re going to do. I know it will involve Duck Commander and hunting. Honestly, it was tough to run the business and do the show. Now I can take hunting even more seriously. What could be better?\n4 Essential Rope Knots You Should Know for Survival Situations\nRope is often overlooked as a vital survival tool, so we've outlined not only the...",

        "raw_content": "Political Notebook: Howard's elected officials head overseas\nPatching potholes and balancing Howard County's or Maryland's budget may seem far removed from visits to foreign and exotic places, but several local elected officials traveled overseas this spring, visiting places as diverse as Israel, Turkey, northern Europe and Asia.\nCounty Executive Ken Ulman, a Democrat, spent a week in Israel, and Del. Gail Bates, a Republican, made a similar trip to Turkey, both invited and financed, at least in part, by local groups with ties to those countries interested in building good relations with American officials. Del. Guy Guzzone, a Democrat, is spending a month at his own expense visiting Korea, China and India, and Del. Elizabeth Bobo, who says she likes to travel to experience other cultures, vacationed in Berlin, Dresden and Prague.\nBates, like Democratic Sen. James N. Robey before her, said she had attended a reception in Annapolis held this year on February 23 by two local Turkish American groups called the Maryland Turkish American Inhabitants, and the Mid-Atlantic Federation of Turkic American Associations. They are trying to promote the country of their ancestors as a modernizing, forward-looking society, and the Howard officials agreed to travel there with a few other elected officials to learn more.\n\"It was just fabulous. They were incredibly gracious,\" Bates said, adding that she enjoyed the sightseeing, but also meetings with local Turkish officials and especially being invited into Turkish homes for dinner and conversation. Bates said she paid her own air fare, and was provided accommodations and food, plus interior travel in Turkey by the sponsors.\nThe small group, which Bates said included five Maryland legislators and Maryland Secretary of State John P. McDonough, stayed in Istanbul; Izmir, on the Aegean coast; Ankara, the capital; and Kocaeli, an industrial city near Istanbul. The impression she took away was of an increasingly modern country striving to improve itself.\nRobey, who had taken a similar trip within the past several years, had also visited Turkey years earlier. He too said that meeting Turkish families in their homes made a big impression. \"They want the same things we want: freedom, a good education and a better quality of life \u2014 and less traffic congestion,\" he recalled. A shopkeeper he met commuted on three buses and still walked over a mile each way daily to get to work and back. Apartments were \"very nice, but small\" by American standards, which gave him a different perspective on what Americans expect compared to people elsewhere in the world, he said.\nUlman is the latest of hundreds of young American leaders who have taken similar trips over the years arranged by local Jewish organizations to win friends and show off their side of Israel's story. The Baltimore-based Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation paid the executive's way, Ulman said, and it's a trip \u2014 his first to Israel \u2014 that he won't soon forget.\n\"It was one of the most exhausting trips I've ever had in my life,\" Ulman said, with activities jammed into every day starting at 6 a.m. for a whirlwind of visits to local officials, biblical sites, local businesses, and sensitive borders. One thing that he knew but that still greatly impressed him while there was how small a country Israel really is.\n\"It's pretty staggering to realize how close everything is,\" Ulman said. Gaza, he realized, is as close to Jerusalem as Howard County is to Bethesda. He also met and spoke with the Arab mayor of a West Bank town.\nHe was there when President Barack Obama made his heavily criticized speech suggesting that the 1967 borders of Israel, subject to land swaps on both sides, should be the starting point for an ultimate peace agreement, and visited the northern border with Syria during the time when border demonstrations that resulted in violence were taking place.\nThe news media's penchant for reducing issues to short sentences and sound bites obscured the nuances of the president's intentions, Ulman said, adding that \"I think he ought to make more clear to our partners in Israel that whatever happens, he won't sacrifice Israel's security.\"\nGuzzone headed in the opposite direction, saying before he left June 4 that he'd been talking about a Far Eastern trip for years, partly because of the fast-growing Asian-American population in Howard County. County residents, like Sue Song, the longtime leader of the county's Korean community, and founders of the local Chinese American Language School have encouraged the visit. Guzzone also met the Maryland business trade mission headed by Gov. Martin O'Malley in Korea while he was there, he said, and then moved on to China, with India last on the itinerary.\n\"This is the first time I've really been overseas,\" Guzzone said via telephone June 17, while in China. He has visited Chinese colleges and schools, met officials and academics and made business contacts with people interested in Maryland and Howard County. He spent a week in Korea, about 11 days in China and then moved to India for the last week of the journey. Song met him in Korea, he said. \"It's been incredible, really.\"\nBobo said she and her husband, former County Council member Lloyd Knowles, love to travel. They were very impressed with the \"grand boulevards, great museums and magnificent modern architecture\" in East Berlin, and said the Holocaust memorial located in front of the U.S. Embassy was the most moving she's ever seen.\nThey also visited a former Wilde Lake High student and one-time intern in Bobo's legislative office as well, but she said the real lure of travel for her is \"letting myself be absorbed in wherever we are.\" She tries to find a novel set in whatever country she is traveling, she said, to boost the effect.\nHer big regret: never having learned a second language.\nKen Ulman",

        "raw_content": "Sometimes you really need to get out of your comfort zone to learn the wonderous inner workings of the disco lifestyle. As mentioned before, my new profile \u2018Doctor Asa\u201d is just all about that. Inspired by the Golden show in Beijing and forwarded.. or more like catapulted to an experience of life that\u2019s not just in Florida but all over the world. I don\u2019t have that many people who I can thank for it, except every single one of you. Many know how hippies say \u201cwe are connected\u201d, and I used to laught at this saying. Thinking that it\u2019s impossible, not really understanding what it ment.\nWell, thank god we started traveling because it really brought my senses to the \u201cnew age\u201d. Not some new age electronic meditation CD, but more of a funky disco tune that grabs life from the balls. One really has to have them, so that you can embrace the adventure that is waiting for you. I am thinking of making a movie out of it, Barmitzvah style, but I am just not sure anymore if this exciting life of mine can be capture on camera anymore. Of course parts of it can and will be memorised and presented to you folks when the time is right.. I just sometimes wish that I could do more, with an attitude that would take all of you with me. No matter if you could afford the flight or not, everyone deserves to broaden their horizons at least once in their life.\nTruth is that anyone can, it\u2019s just the guts that are often a lack. When I say balls btw, women usually have more than men. You wouldn\u2019t believe the amount of brave, crazy, disco loving and wonderful female travelers I have met on my journey. They should be proud, because they have really discovered the salt of their lives.\nThis very salt, is excatly sometimes that I need in life. As I have written, I am feeling spiritual. Perhaps there is a new flavor of salt in town, the one that is united with all, one with all and coated in spirituality. Don\u2019t you think so?",

        "raw_content": "BART budget outlook: more train service soon, brand new trains later\nSigns of a slowly recovering economy are providing BART with the resources to reinvest in the fleet of the future for the long term and to provide extra train service for the short term. The BART Board of Directors explored budget issues during its Thursday, April 12, 2012 meeting as part of the process of adopting a new budget before July 1, when Fiscal Year 2013 (FY13) begins.\nBART staff proposes investing a total of $45 million in operating funds toward the $3.2 billion new rail car project, an additional $2.4 million to pay for new seats and new floors in existing rail cars and about $600,000 to pay for an extra hour of weeknight train service on the Daly City to Richmond line (trains currently stop running on the line at 7 pm; this proposal would fund train service until 8 pm).\n\u201cI think it\u2019s wise for us to address some of our immediate needs while keeping an eye toward our future,\u201d BART Board Vice President Tom Radulovich said. \u201cWe\u2019re proposing significant investments in our new rail cars and our existing cars and stations and adding more service to keep up with the increase in ridership during the evening commute, particularly between San Francisco and Berkeley.\u201d\nThe FY13 Preliminary Budget memo also proposes hiring 42 transportation personnel, primarily Train Operators, as a long-term solution to address overtime costs as well as a number of other initiatives such as increasing staffing in BART\u2019s Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program and a variety of technology needs.\nMore Riders = More Operating Money\nBART\u2019s $669.4 million operating budget is benefiting from ridership that is projected to increase by 3% in FY13 to an average weekday ridership of 376,000 for the year, which would be an all-time high. Sales tax revenues are expected to increase by 5%.\nBecause BART is on the right financial track for operating funds, BART staff is proposing to use $15 million in FY12 funds for State of Good Repair capital needs: $7.5 million to waterproof and modernize the concourse of Powell St. Station, $4.7 million for several projects to improve rail car reliability and availability, including an upgrade of rail car heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems as well as power and propulsion work. The remaining funds would be used for initiatives ranging from computer servers to pigeon abatement.\nDespite the short term infusion of operating funds, BART still faces a $7.5 billion shortfall in its capital needs over the next 25 years.\nWhat\u2019s Next in the Budget Process\nToday\u2019s Preliminary Budget Overview is just one step in the budget process. On May 10, BART staff is scheduled to present to the Board a more detailed \u201cSources/Uses Service Plan.\u201d On May 24, the Board is expected to hold a public hearing on the budget. On June 14, the Board is scheduled to vote on the budget.\nLearn more about the BART budget by visiting www.bart.gov/board or download the FY13 Preliminary Budget Memo (1.5 Mb .pdf).",

        "title": "Hawaii volcano: How many people do volcanoes kill? - BBC News",
        "raw_content": "Hawaii volcano: How many people do volcanoes kill?\nBy Dr Sarah Brown University of Bristol\nMedia captionAerial footage shows spread of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano\nWith its red-hot rivers of lava and clouds of ash, Hawaii's Kilauea volcano has captured the world's attention. But how dangerous are such eruptions?\nEvery year about 60 volcanoes erupt. Some take us by surprise but others are regular offenders.\nKilauea is one of the world's most active - its present eruption began 35 years ago, but there has been an increase in activity in recent weeks.\nIts lava flows have quite literally been erupting in people's backyards, but thankfully only one serious injury has been reported - a man hit by projectile molten rock as he sat on his balcony.\nThis could appear to suggest that volcanoes aren't all that dangerous, but much of the world's population lives close to an active volcano - and many of these are much deadlier than Kilauea.\nSince the year 1500, about 280,000 people have been killed by volcanoes - 170,000 of those by just six eruptions.\nWe have compiled these figures using media reports, public records and historical documents.\nAbout 2,000 people have been killed since the year 2000.\nMost of these deaths were caused by volcanic mudflows in the Philippines, pyroclastic flows in Indonesia, lava flows in the Democratic Republic of Congo and volcanic projectiles in Japan. Last year three tourists died in Italy when they fell into a pit in a volcanic crater.\nAt present, about 800 million people live within 100 km of an active volcano - a distance well within reach of potentially lethal volcanic hazards. Of these, about 200 million are in Indonesia.\nAs populations continue to grow, it is likely even more people will set up home close to one of the world's 1,500 active volcanoes, which are spread across 81 countries.\n\"Active\" does not mean that all of these volcanoes are erupting, but that we think they have been recently active and are capable of new eruptions.\nVolcanoes pose many different types of danger to those who live near them.\nIn the case of Kilauea, the United States Geological Survey noticed a marked increase in seismic activity at the end of April, with the first fissures appearing at the start of May.\nSince then, lava flows have travelled about three miles (5km) to the ocean, destroying homes and leading to the evacuation of thousands of people.\nSuch lava flows don't kill many people.\nWhile it burns and buries everything in its path, lava - molten rock that glows red-hot, with temperatures of about 1200C - moves slowly enough that people can normally just walk away.\nHow to speak volcano - BBC News\nWhen your home's next to a lava flow\nVolcano erupts at end of man's garden - BBC News\nThe danger arises when people fail to evacuate quickly. In Hawaii, several people were airlifted to safety after their escape routes were cut off.\nLava can cause explosions, including the ignition of pockets of methane gas produced as it buries vegetation.\nAnd when it reaches the ocean it forms unstable new land and laze - plumes of steam, hydrochloric acid and glass shards.\nAnother hazard in Hawaii is sulphur dioxide, one of several gases that can be released by volcanoes, even when they're not erupting.\nHowever, lava and gas combined account for less than 2% of recorded volcanic fatalities.\nThe largest loss of life to volcanic gas was in Cameroon in 1986, when more than 1,500 people were killed as carbon dioxide from Lake Nyos flowed into surrounding villages.\nMost people killed by volcanoes are the victims of pyroclastic flows and lahars - volcanic mudflows, packed with debris - which have been responsible for about 120,000 deaths over the last 500 years.\nThese are normally associated with large conical volcanoes found at tectonic boundaries, such as the ring of fire, unlike the gently sloping shield volcanoes, like Kilauea.\nPyroclastic flows are very fast avalanches of rock, ash and gas, which can reach temperatures of 700C.\nThey destroy everything in their path, and death is near certain for anyone caught in their way.\nIt was pyroclastic flows that destroyed the Roman city of Pompeii in AD 79. And they claimed nearly 30,000 lives on the Caribbean island of Martinique in 1902.\nWhy Ebola keeps coming back\nWhy North Korea is destroying its nuclear test site\nThe UK's rapidly changing mixed-race population\nWhy has Saudi Arabia suddenly decided cinema is OK?\nLahars can contain rocks, trees and even houses.\nThey form as rainfall, snow, or melting ice and wash ash deposits off the slopes of volcanoes and into surrounding valleys at high speeds.\nIn 1985 about 25,000 people were killed by lahars at Nevado del Ruiz, Colombia.\nIn large eruptions volcanic ash can travel hundreds or even thousands of kilometres. It can bury vast areas and disrupt transportation and critical services.\nHistorically, famine and disease have followed such events, with crop failures, or ash and gas leading to temporary changes in the climate.\nMedia captionThe Kilauea volcano erupted after a series of earthquakes on the island.\nHowever, while unstoppable, volcanic eruptions do not need to result in death and disaster.\nThat only one serious injury has been reported in Hawaii is testament to the work of observatory scientists and disaster management agencies, as well as excellent monitoring systems.\nUnfortunately, limited resources mean few volcanoes around the world are as well monitored as Kilauea.\nSatellite monitoring allows some observation of even the most remote volcanoes, but only about 20% of the world's volcanoes have any ground-based monitoring.\nAnd roughly every two years a volcano with no historical record erupts.\nThese can be the most dangerous, as long periods of dormancy can end in more explosive eruptions and the people living near them can be the least prepared.\nNevertheless, volcano observatories, researchers and international organisations work tirelessly to respond to emergencies and forecast events, with many tens of thousands of lives saved as a result.\nOf course, volcanoes don't need to kill people to have a significant impact.\nEvacuations uproot people from their homes, livelihoods are lost, agriculture devastated and economic loss can run into billions.\nEven when they appear to be sleeping, we'd be wise to keep watching the world's volcanoes.\nThis analysis piece was commissioned by the BBC from an expert working for an outside organisation.\nDr Sarah Brown is a Senior Research Associate in Volcanology at the University of Bristol. She has a particular focus on volcanic records, past activity, the impact on people and communicating risk.",

        "raw_content": "Bed bugs are the most common insects found in our homes, offices, kitchens and the agricultural areas. They grow quite fast and then it becomes almost impossible to get rid of them. It is best to call pest control and termite treatment experts to exterminate bed bugs. The experts can get rid of this widespread problem.\nIf bed bugs have penetrated deep, it becomes hard to get a quick solution. We can think of prevention if we have done the basic study of the bed bug\u2019s nature. Otherwise, it becomes very difficult to rid of these creatures permanently.\nBody Size of Bed Bugs:\nBed bugs are quite tiny. They are naturally small, and this gives them the benefit of hiding anywhere they want. Small holes in the walls, kitchen cabinets, corners of the doors or windows are their best place to reside. They love to hide and only come out when they are in a mood to spread peril all around or when they are searching for food. They simply love to feed on human blood, and unlike mosquitoes, their sting is more painful.\nYou cannot even think that a single hole in any wall of your house can contain thousands of bed bugs inside. So it is best if you eradicate them in the earlier stage. Otherwise there is no other way you can get rid of them permanently. Bed bugs are approximately 4 inches in size, and this all goes to their benefit to occupy any place they like.\nBedbugs show rapid growth. It does not take much time to multiply from tens to hundreds and from hundreds to thousands. An adult mother can lay hundreds of eggs at one time and imagine if your house gets covered with all their eggs around. This would bring a big menace, and you can require an expert to meet this challenge.\nBed Bugs Arrival.\nMany researchers claim that bed bugs arrive during daylight hours, but a common perception is that they raid in the dark. So be cautious and if there is any suspicious thought coming in your mind, it means that they are hiding somewhere in your home. Try preventive measures and call the experts urgently to impede the problem from spreading.\nIf you are having a suspicious feeling that bed bugs are present, then do not hesitate to call the experts. It is better if you treat the problem before it gets out of hand. The professionals know where to find these insects and have the treatment that is very effective. If you feel that you can handle the situation on your own, then start by inspecting the house.\nSearch the monsters in every corner of your house. They hide in every nook and cranny. Spray all the areas where you suspect them hiding. Use an effective spray which can kill them right on the spot. Make sure that you have sprayed all their areas so they cannot multiply.\nBed bugs were a problem up until the twentieth century. After that, they slowly subsided where incidents were few and far in between. Common travelers, they are transported via luggage, bedding, furniture, and clothing. In recent reports, they have made a dramatic appearance worldwide.\nMany health risks are associated with these creatures. Skin infections caused by scratching their bites are common. This occurs at night while the person is sleeping and they itch horribly. Allergies pose a risk to certain individuals, and in worse cases, anemia is present. Nesting wherever a human sleeps and lives, they feed on human blood as the main staple of their diet. Couches, chairs, and mattresses are common places where they reside and hide.\nSince they migrate between buildings, it is important to notify your landlord of the infestation. This is especially true for condos or apartment complexes. Advise him or her to check all other rooms and buildings. This is vital if you do not want another re-infestation. To eradicate them you need first to figure out the common hiding places of these creatures. This would help you come up with an effective way of eliminating them and take preventive measures against their re-entry. This can be performed either on your own or with the assistance of a competent pest control company.\nRemove all bedding. Place in a sealed garbage bag to be laundered. Clothing, bedding, and anything machine washable needs washing in hot water that is at least one hundred and twenty degrees Fahrenheit. Place all items that are not machine washable in a sealed garbage bag and placed in a sunny, hot location. This includes attics and garages. You may toss the items in a dryer on high.\nDismantle all beds that are located within the home. Bed frames, headboards, and footboards are included. Wipe down the frames with rubbing alcohol. Vacuum everything that is part of the set, while paying close attention to the seams and crevices. You may have to remove the fabric that is located on the underside of the mattress. Clean thoroughly and vacuum underneath the actual bed. The mattress needs to be discarded for effectiveness. If this is not feasible, simply apply a sealed mattress cover.\nOnce you are through with the cleaning, take some extra precautionary measures like disposing of the vacuum cleaner bag in the garbage bin outside your home, in a tightly sealed plastic bag to get rid of the bed bugs forever. Having got rid of all the bed bugs, you need to block all possible entry points for them, especially near water pipes and sewers.\nUse a pest control expert. Unlike pesticides that are found in the store and on the web, a professional will control the situation knowledgeably and effectively. By seeking the services of one, you can feel at ease with knowing another incident is less likely to happen. He or she will probably spray the outside perimeters if there are bats or fowl present. This is due to certain species which feed on these animals.\nThese strategies are sure to guide you through the world of bed bugs how to get rid of them. This rigid process will ensure proper extermination of the insects. Never use pesticides on bedding or mattresses. This will prevent ill health effects.",

Bacteria is very smart. It finds ways to become immune to the antibiotics that we take, making them less effective and in some cases stops them working. New antibiotics aren\u2019t being researched and developed so we have to sensibly use the ones that we have.\n\u201cMost sore throats, such as tonsillitis are viral infections. So taking antibiotics won\u2019t have an effect. The best thing people can do is visit their pharmacist who can advise on over the counter remedies to ease the symptoms; take plenty of rest and drink lots of fluids.\u201d\nBacteria can become resistant to antibiotics when they\u2019re used often, if they\u2019re not taken as prescribed, or if the course isn\u2019t finished.\nNaomi added: \u201cIf people don\u2019t finish the course because they feel better for example, then some of the bacteria can still be in the system. It then mutates and develops a resistance to that antibiotic so that it\u2019s not as effective next time.\u201d\nIf a cold lasts more than three weeks, or you become breathless or have chest pains, see your doctor or dial NHS111.\nThe first World Antibiotic Awareness Week takes place 16 to 22 November 2015.\nhttp://www.who.int/drugresistance/en/",

Investing in kids impacts our community tomorrow. That\u2019s why Boys & Girls Clubs of the Austin Area (BGCAA) is proud to celebrate 51 years of service to the Austin community.\nAccording to Christian, \u201cI can come here and not only spend time with great friends or get work completed for school, I can also open up and be me. Boys and Girls Club is a home away from home and that\u2019s why it\u2019s valuable to me.\u201d Christian is one of thousands of local youth success stories.\nInvesting in kids is vital to their development. That\u2019s why the heart of BGCAA\u2019s mission aims to provide opportunities for them to become productive, responsible citizens. Our youth participate in high-impact development programs that, when compared to non-club youth, result in better school attendance, better grades, higher graduation rates and a higher likelihood of attending college. To ensure those outcomes are met, we\u2019ve grown our Club programming and services from six to 119 programs, each one serving our three pillars of Academic Success, Character & Leadership and Healthy Lifestyles.\nThrough the support from local individuals, businesses and BGCAA staff, Club youth are given the tools and opportunities needed to create great futures. Help us celebrate 50 years in Austin with a $50 investment in youth and their families at www.bcgaustin.org.\nMore than 50% of BGCAA\u2019s operating budget comes from individuals, businesses and family foundations in the Austin area. We rely on the generosity of these philanthropic-minded individuals and entities to continue to serve more than 2,300 kids per day, as well as address the enormous, unmet need for services.\nWhether you are an individual, small business owner, community friend or a major corporation, you can give back to the Boys & Girls Club to support our mission. Corporate branding, underwriting, matching gift programs, give back days, \u201cpercent\u201d sales and in-kind giving are just a few examples of how you can get involved.

For ever since our ancestors died,[a] all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation!\u201d 5 They deliberately ignore this fact, that by the word of God heavens existed long ago and an earth was formed out of water and by means of water, 6 through which the world of that time was deluged with water and perished. 7 But by the same word the present heavens and earth have been reserved for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the godless.\n8 But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day. 9 The Lord is not slow about his promise, as some think of slowness, but is patient with you,[b] not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance.\n2 Peter 3:4 Gk our fathers fell asleep\n2 Peter 3:9 Other ancient authorities read on your account",

        "raw_content": "As a parent, you likely work hard to instruct your children on the value of keeping their teeth healthy and safe by brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits. However, no matter how healthy their teeth are, their smiles are still prone to sport-related injuries.\nSports and Your Teeth\nAccording to the National Youth Sports Safety Foundation (NYSSF), more than three million teeth were knocked out in sporting activities last year \u2013 especially in baseball and basketball. Wow, that\u2019s a lot of toothless grins!\nOne of the main culprits for this staggering number is improperly protected teeth.\nWhile sporting events require athletes to wear protective gear such as helmets and shoulder pads, mouthguards are optional, putting many exposed smiles in danger. The NYSSF reported athletes who do not wear mouthguards are 60 times more likely to damage their teeth.\nDespite this high risk, many people take no measures to protect their smiles with mouthgaurds. Or, some do wear a mouthguard but have chosen an inadequate, store-bought brand, which could further harm their smile.\nFitted Just For You\nNote: When it comes to keeping your teeth safe, not all mouthguards are created equal.\nMouthguards available at sporting goods stores are typically sold as one-size-fits-all. It\u2019s hoped that regardless of a child\u2019s age, sport, and unique oral health condition, these standard boil-and-bite mouthguards will somehow fit them properly. If you\u2019ve ever tried on a one-size-fits-all shirt or pair of gloves, you know all too well just how ill-fitting it can be\u2026too small, too loose, and too uncomfortable.\nOn the other hand, your dentist creates custom-fitted mouthguards, which are superior in nearly every way. Rather than store bought mouthguards that necessitate a clenched bite to keep it in place, customized mouthguards are made to fit your child\u2019s mouth perfectly so they can focus on the game at hand. If it feels right, it is more likely to actually be used!\nDental custom-fitted mouthguards are comprised of materials much more durable than their sporting goods competitors. They play an essential role in protecting the mouth from potentially harmful blows, minimizing the risk of injury to the teeth, jaw bone, gums, and tongue. They even lend protection against concussions and neck injuries. That means not only do they fit more securely\u2014they also last much longer, offering only the best protection for your child\u2019s oral and physical health!\nWhether you\u2019re a fan of high-impact sports or a non-competitive game among friends, specialized sports mouthguards are the superior choice for adults. Remember, you\u2019re a unique individual and that includes your teeth.\nBook your appointment with your Tulsa dentist a custom-fitted sports mouthguard today. We\u2019re happy to do our part to help you enjoy your sports activities while keeping your smile safe along the way.",

That number increases to one out of three people suffering from hearing loss by age 65.\nBecause so many people have hearing loss, it may be surprising to learn that the average person waits an average of 6.7 years from the onset of hearing loss to seek treatment with hearing aids. These seven years are lost years: Almost 7 in 10 (69%) say their hearing loss hinders their ability to take part in everyday conversations with friends and family, and half (50%) of those with untreated hearing loss experience sadness or depression.\nLatest Hearing Aid Tech is More Discreet and Functional\nEven though waiting results in lost opportunities with regards to relationships, work and happiness, taking the first step to getting treatment is not always easy. However, there are more options for those seeking hearing aids than ever before. New technology makes hearing aids more discreet, weather-resistant and functional.\nFor example, today\u2019s hearing aids have more processing power than it took to operate the computers that put mankind on the moon. But they come in a much smaller package! The technology for behind-the-ear (BTE), in-the-ear (ITE), and receiver-in-canal (RIC) styles has developed to the point that they are so small and comfortable, many people forget they are wearing them.\nRIC hearing aids have a small housing that sits behind the ear and a thin connecting tube to the earpiece. Many people like this style due to the comfort and flexibility it provides.\nThe most discreet ITE hearing aids fit in the ear canal and are referred to as in-the-canal (ITC) or invisible-in-the-canal (IIC) hearing aids. These fit comfortably deep in the ear canal and are nearly invisible to others, depending on the style. Because they are custom-made, they are comfortable for most wearers.\nMost hearing aids offer a range of water-resistant options, so wearers don\u2019t have to worry about them in the rain or when perspiring due to exercise.\nIn addition to being more discreet and robust, hearing aids wearers can select models with Bluetooth\u00ae integration so they can stream phone calls, music, television shows and more directly into their hearing aids. Smartphone apps let wearers change settings or adjust volume discreetly \u2014 to onlookers it appears they\u2019re just checking a text.\nAddress Hearing Loss Sooner than Later\nAddressing hearing loss sooner rather than later brings many benefits. Not only are relationships less likely to suffer, but the wearer\u2019s quality of life improves. From a health standpoint, untreated hearing loss has been linked to dementia, depression, falling, hospitalization, and other threats to physical and mental health.\nThe process of treating hearing loss is much easier than it may seem to some who put off getting treatment. Those with hearing loss should simply call a hearing care professional who will diagnose the hearing loss and run a couple of non-invasive tests to determine the best way to treat. The hearing care professional will recommend the best and most customized solution and will often work with insurance companies to help the patient find the best options for their situation.\nChance for Free Hearing Aids When Applying for Documentary Series\nIf you are currently experiencing hearing loss and hesitant to get treatment, here is an option: One of the leaders in hearing aids, Signia, is currently producing a reality series for Fall 2017 that focuses on Americans who have hearing loss but have gone untreated.\nThose who have not previously worn hearing aids can apply to participate. Participants, who are selected and agree to be filmed in the series, will receive customized Signia hearing aids fitted just for them at no cost.

        "raw_content": "Michael Lanier is the founder of Pueblo, an indoor plant shop in the historic Garfield neighborhood in downtown Phoenix. Along with his partner and co-owner, Coby Bruckner, Michael has created a vibrant oasis in our desert city. The space they have curated at Pueblo is one of life and acceptance and hope. The fostering of life with pruning, watering, moving and observing. Acceptance that a deep breath and a quiet moment amongst plants is exactly what your soul needs. And ultimately, hope that things will not only survive, but thrive. Michael brings this positivity to his neighborhood and beyond, and we are so honored to chat with Michael for Around The Blok.\nMy name is Michael, I\u2019m an Arizona Native and a placemaker. I\u2019m an outgoing introvert and believer in this city and her future, a purveyor of plants and a naturalist at heart. I look at the world with an optimistic realism and will do my best to make my time on earth as productive and joyous as possible, planting trees and providing (literal) shade as I do it.\nAs you walk into Pueblo, you\u2019re greeted by their often sleepy, good vibes mascot, a boxer named Bennie. She even comes with her own accolades, being named \u201cbest boutique pet\u201d by Phoenix Magazine.\nI do what I do because I firmly believe in a positive impact. Humans have an incredible knack for destroying the past, and I want to do my absolute best to ensure that whenever I am done, I left a positive impact on as many people as I could in the ways that I can\u2013and for me that means enabling people to fill their lives with just enough knowledge that they feel a little better off and more connected to the living things that can\u2019t talk back.\nArt is so hard to define. Art is music, and movement. It\u2019s color and shape and form and anything that inspires even a slight chill down your spine, or a tingle in your back. Art moves you, and inspires you to want to do that for others. Art helps you notice a detail that\u2019s always been in plain sight. Art is human, and today it seems more important than ever to just feel human.\nWHAT'S YOUR ADVICE TO OTHERS CHASING THEIR DREAM?\nIt\u2019s so easy to convince yourself that a dream is something you\u2019ll do when you have time, but waiting until you feel ready tends to put a dream off for life. Make sure there is passion in it, and make sure that you can sustain yourself while you chase it. There have been so many times that I get lost in the details of what I do that I forget that the bigger picture is just to enjoy what I do. Don\u2019t get lost in the small, overwhelming obstacles.\nWHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST INSPIRATION AND WHY?\nMy biggest inspiration would have to be other artists, entrepreneurs and creatives. Friends, local and far. People who are doing their best to make a go of their own desires and dreams.\nHome is Here. I\u2019ve always assumed home was just where I was at the time, but I always end up coming home to Phoenix. It\u2019s always a little dusty, always a little polluted, always a little washed out but no matter what it is, it\u2019s always home, and I always want to improve it and watch it grow and mature in any way it can.",

        "raw_content": "BlogHome \u00bb Informatica makes me swear\nBugger. That was my first reaction when I was pre-briefed on this year\u2019s Informatica World announcements. Actually, that\u2019s not quite true. Threefold bugger in fact.\nThe cause of this remonstrance is the company\u2019s Enterprise Information Catalog. This works alongside Informatica Rev and is part of the company\u2019s Intelligent Data Lake ecosystem (though it is also useful in other contexts). What it does is allow you to crawl through your data lake, identify the data resources that are within in it, capture the metadata associated with those different forms of data, and then allow you to search against the resulting catalog. I call this data cataloguing.\nSo, what\u2019s not to like? Nothing. It\u2019s the timing that is a buggeration. Last year I wrote both a white paper and a market update (product comparison) on data preparation. Both of these have been updated with a research process that ended at the end of March. In the latest version of the white paper, one of the major changes is that there is now a section on data cataloguing and I have predicted that data preparation and data cataloguing would merge. This was before I knew about Informatica\u2019s announcement but based on the fact that Trifacta has a partnership with Waterline, that Tamr has introduced some cataloguing capabilities, and that Unifi (which is resold by Trillium) was built from the outset with both sets of capabilities in mind.\nSo Informatica\u2019s announcement validates my prediction. That\u2019s not the problem. The problem is with the scoring in the Market Update. Informatica Rev, on its own, scores well but is not outstanding. However, in conjunction with the Enterprise Information Catalog it is up there at the top with a best in class offering. And that\u2019s the problem: a report superseded by events.\nOf course, all such reports reflect a moment in time and you can\u2019t be forever delaying for someone\u2019s next release. However, most new releases are incremental rather than dramatic and Enterprise Information Catalog is dramatic. So, as I said: bugger.\nThere is actually a further point worth discussing here. There are three types of supplier in this space: pure plays, BI vendors and data integration/quality vendors. A major issue is whether you want data preparation to be part of your business intelligence or your data governance infrastructure. The argument I hear a lot is that business analysts like to do data preparation and analysis within the same environment. There are two arguments against that. Firstly, while lots of BI vendors are adding data preparation to their product suites I don\u2019t know anyone that is adding data cataloguing. Secondly, the big advantage of using a platform like Informatica Rev is that you can easily operationalise the data transformations you perform during the data preparation process. That isn\u2019t the case if you don\u2019t have an appropriate data quality or transformation engine underneath the data preparation platform \u2013 and pure plays and BI vendors don\u2019t generally have that.",

Pyle, Robert Robbins and James Tuttle, which appeared in a National Garden Club publication.\nThe fad of releasing Monarch butterflies at weddings and public events is spreading.\nBecause these butterflies may have come from California, where they do not migrate to Mexico, their offspring may not be able to orient properly. This means that tens of thousands of mixed-up Monarchs may not find their way to their overwintering grounds.\nAdd to this the fact that butterflies raised by unregulated commercial interests may spread diseases and parasites and may also result in an inappropriate genetic mixing of different populations, thereby harming the local ecology.\nAlso, creating a commercial market for live butterflies encourages poachers to invade their overwintering sites.\nPlease, be kind to the environment and the butterflies, and celebrate your wedding day by throwing rose petals instead.\nPat Whiteside",

        "title": "Phantomgate: The Last Valkyrie Phantoms Guide | BlueStacks 4",
        "raw_content": "Your ultimate goal in Phantomgate: The Last Valkyrie is to build an army of the most powerful phantoms. There are hundreds of phantoms you can collect and each belongs to a different element class. Therefore, the benefits they can provide are different. The faster you collect phantoms, the more options you can use on the battlefield. In this guide, we\u2019ll tell you how you can do this: Say hello to your personal phantom army.\nThe Source Of Phantoms\nShortly after starting the game, the \u201cPhantoms\u201d building will be unlocked. This is the building you will use to build your army. First, let\u2019s take a closer look at it.\nYou can see all the phantoms you have on this screen and place them in parties. But the most important feature of this building is that it allows you to create new phantoms. Phantomgate offers multiple methods for obtaining new phantoms, the first of which is essences. You can think of them as pieces of characters, scattered around. Every phantom has a certain number of essences and if you manage to collect them all, you can create that phantom completely for free. There is no limit to this, as long as you have a sufficient amount of essence, you can create as many new phantoms as you want.\nAfter collecting all essences, click on a phantom. The following screen will appear:\nYou can add a phantom you created to one of your parties. So, how is the quality of a phantom determined? Phantoms in Phantomgate have four different levels of rarity: T1, T2, ET1, and ET2. ET2 symbolizes the most powerful and rarest phantoms. You cannot change the level of rarity of a phantom. Look back at the list above: Next to each phantom, you\u2019ll see an icon that shows its level of rarity. As can be expected, the rarest phantoms require you to collect a lot of essences.\nSo, where are these essences coming from? You can get them by completing the main story missions. Note that not every mission gives essence. Before starting a mission, you can check the reward list to see if it awards essence.\nEssence is a completely free method of collecting phantom and you can collect even the rarest phantoms in the game if you are patient enough. You will need to complete missions more than once for some essences. This is called farming: You continue to play the same missions and try to collect all the essences you need. But farming is not the only way to get new phantoms.\nYou Can Also Summon Phantoms\nThe \u201cSummon\u201d building opens after Chapter 1-3 has been completed. The feature of this building is, as the name suggests, summoning new phantoms without having to collect essence. In this building, you can summon a new phantom with one of two resources: gems and gold.\nThese sources perform different types of summons. There are two summon types:\nPremium: You always get an essence. Uses gems.\nNormal: Essence is not a guarantee, you can get other resources too (like runes). Uses gold.\nThe first thing you need to learn is that you can\u2019t summon a complete phantom from this building. Even if you pay with gems, you can only earn essence. Moreover, the rates are quite low.\nYou can make a free premium summon every 24 hours. Normal summons can be done constantly as long as you have enough gold. But the results are not very good. Below, you can see the results of a normal summon that cost 80,000 gold. We were able to get only one essence.\nWe do not recommend using this method. Because the results are completely random, you never know which phantom essence you will get, even in the premium option. Since the gems are sold for real money, it is not worth the risk. You can use normal summon to try your chance if you have more than enough gold. The most reliable and free source to obtain new phantoms is to collect their essences.\nLeveling Your Phantoms\nThere are two ways to level up your phantoms. The first is to complete the missions. In this case, all phantoms in your party gain a certain amount of XP points. The second is to use phantom soul shards. As we mentioned in our other guides, these shards are gathered during the story missions. After collecting enough shards, select the phantom you want and click the \u201clevel up\u201d button.\nThe amount of shards that this process costs depends on the phantom\u2019s level of rarity. But we have good news: You can upgrade even a level 1 phantom to the last level, as long as you have enough shards. The only limitation in this respect is the level of your main hero. The level of the phantoms cannot be higher than the main hero.\nStrengthening Your Phantoms\nGaining a new level will increase the basic stats of phantoms.\nHowever, you can make them stronger by using the \u201cenhance\u201d method. This option is accessed via the same menu.\nEnhancing is better than leveling up when it comes to stat raise. However, there is a price: This process uses essences, not shards. And these must be the essences of the same phantom you want to enhance. Let us explain: You will continue to collect the essences of a phantom you have already acquired throughout the game. Using these additional essences, you can enhance a phantom as explained above. This process requires more essence each time.\nEvolving Your Phantoms\nEvolving is the last method you can use to further strengthen your phantoms. In our other guides, we mentioned that you get evolution runes when you complete the main story missions. Using these runes, you can make your phantoms more powerful and even change the element class to which they belong.\nNote, however, that this is not a simple change in stats: You can choose to evolve a phantom in different ways. For example, if you don\u2019t have a phantom of the fire element in your party, you can use a phantom of the earth element and convert it to fire by evolving.\nNow you know how to collect phantoms and how to determine the strongest ones: Everything is ready to start your adventure. This is going to be a long journey but you can also bet that it will be fun. Keep collecting phantoms, create the most powerful team, and get your revenge on the gods. Keep in mind that using BlueStacks will make all of these things easier and more enjoyable!\nTips, Tricks, and Useful Strategies for Phantomgate: The Last Valkyrie",

        "raw_content": "Oct 18 Survey on Iranian Economic Attitudes (Sept. 2017)\nLarge majorities of Iranians say growing trade and business tides between Iran and other countries is mostly beneficial for Iran and believe that Iran would mostly benefit from allowing multinational companies to freely compete with Iranian companies. Large majorities also think that Iran should make it easier for multinational companies to operate inside Iran.\nMultinational companies, however, face many challenges in Iran. A majority of Iranians think that the government should maintain tariffs that protect Iranian industries. As long as such tariffs are maintained, it is going to be unlikely for the multinational companies to be able to compete with Iranian companies on price.\nAlso, most Iranian households use consumer products that are produced in Iran and multinational companies will have to work extra hard to convince Iranians to switch. This is going to be particularly challenging considering the fact that Iranians consider most products that are sold in Iran as European-made to be counterfeits.\nAnother important challenge multinational companies face is a perception among Iranians that multinational companies do not take the interests of the Iranian people into account and are no well acquainted with the needs and tastes of the Iranian people. To overcome this challenge, multinational companies need to consider and study the needs and tastes of their Iranian consumers.\nFinally, while Iranians continue to support the JCPOA and have confidence that Europeans will live up to their obligations under the agreement, an increasing majority indicate that they are not confident that the United States will live up to its end of the bargain. Iranians also say that multinational companies have moved slower than they could to invest in Iran primarily out of their fear of the United States.\nThe survey was conducted in partnership with Bourse&Bazaar among a representative urban sample of 700 Iranians. The margin of error for this study was +/-3.7. The fieldwork for this conducted in August 2017.\nThe results of this survey were presented at the 4th annual Europe \u2013 Iran Forum. The forum agenda is available here.\nThe detailed full results of the survey are available here. The PowerPoint slides presented in the forum are available here.",

        "raw_content": "Alternative Title: patronage system\nSpoils system, also called patronage system, practice in which the political party winning an election rewards its campaign workers and other active supporters by appointment to government posts and by other favours. The spoils system involves political activity by public employees in support of their party and the employees\u2019 removal from office if their party loses the election. A change in party control of government necessarily brings new officials to high positions carrying political responsibility, but the spoils system extends personnel turnover down to routine or subordinate governmental positions.\nThe term was in use in American politics as early as 1812, but it was made famous in a speech made in 1832 by Senator William Marcy of New York. In defending one of President Andrew Jackson\u2019s appointments, Marcy said, \u201cTo the victor belong the spoils of the enemy.\u201d In Marcy\u2019s time, the term spoils referred to the political appointments, such as cabinet offices or ambassadorships, controlled by an elected official.\nArguments in favour of the spoils system defend it as a means of maintaining an active party organization by offering loyal workers occupational rewards. It also guarantees the ruling party loyal and cooperative employees. Supporters of the practice claim this results in more effective government because the appointed officeholders have a stake in helping the elected official to carry out his policies and fulfill his campaign promises.\nOn the other hand, the spoils system too often resulted in appointments that were based strictly on the needs of the party, without regard for the appointee\u2019s qualifications or ability to do the job. Extensive changes in positions that did not affect government policy, such as President Benjamin Harrison\u2019s changing 31,000 postmasters in one year, also led to inefficiency.\nThe spoils system flourished unchallenged in the United States from the 1820s until after the Civil War, at which time the system\u2019s abuses prompted civil-service reforms designed to cut down the number of government posts filled by appointment and to award jobs on the basis of merit. The Pendleton Federal Civil Service Act of 1883 provided the initial basis for the adoption of the merit system in the recruitment of federal officials, and by the late 20th century merit systems had almost completely replaced the spoils system at the federal, state, and city levels of government.\nIn addition to designating the awarding of public offices to party supporters, the term has come to refer to other abuses of political power designed to benefit and enrich the ruling party. These practices may involve, for example, siphoning public funds to the party by contracting with party contributors to handle public projects at inflated rates or by granting public franchises to party contributors at very low prices. The term also includes favouring supporters in areas like the prosecution of law cases, the placement of insurance policies, or the levying of taxes.\nAlthough spoils system is an American political term, the practice of distributing public offices to reward supporters and strengthen a government is and has been common in many other countries as well.\nUnited States: The major parties\n\u2026frank adoption of the \u201cspoils system.\u201d The Whigs, while out of office, denounced the vile Democratic policy for turning lucrative customhouse and other posts over to supporters, but once in office they resorted to similar practices.

        "raw_content": "Quenington is a small rural parish 12 km. ENE. of Cirencester. The ancient parish comprised 1,996 a. and was compact and roughly rectangular in shape. It was bounded on most of the north and east by the river Coln and a tributary stream and a short section of Akeman Street, and elsewhere by field boundaries. (fn. 1) In the east where the Coln was diverted between 1862 and 1881 (fn. 2) the addition in 1935 of 3 a. from Hatherop brought the boundary back in line with the river and gave the parish an area of 1,999 a. (809 ha.). (fn. 3)\nAbove the valley of the Coln which lies at over 91 m. the land rises to over 137 m. in the northwestern corner. The land is formed by Forest Marble, with the underlying strata of the Great Oolite outcropping in the valley and in the southeast and south-west, and by cornbrash in the south. (fn. 4) Most of the parish was included in the open fields and commonable downland which were finally inclosed in 1754, but there are some watermeadows. Sheep-farming was important by the mid 14th century. No woodland was recorded in 1086 (fn. 5) but Coneygar wood in the north of the parish was mentioned from 1754. (fn. 6) In 1901 the parish had 82\u00be a. of woods and plantations, (fn. 7) some of it lying on the river bank which remained wooded in parts in 1976. Land in the wide loop described by the river at the north-eastern corner, which Sir John Webb acquired in 1778, (fn. 8) had been taken into Hatherop park by 1901. (fn. 9)\nFrom Akeman Street, a route used by the Romans to a crossing of the Coln, a road branched eastwards. That road, which at Coneygar wood was crossed by an old route between Arlington Pike and Fairford, became the main route between Cirencester and Quenington village near the eastern boundary. North-west of the village it was crossed by a road between Coln St. Aldwyns and Fairford, on which a bridge had been built over the Coln by 1559, Quenington and Coln St. Aldwyns being responsible for repairing their respective halves. (fn. 10) A watering-place was reserved there at inclosure in 1754. (fn. 11) The London road mentioned in 1678 (fn. 12) was possibly the important old route across the south-western corner between Ready Token and Fairford (fn. 13) which with all the above-mentioned roads, except Akeman Street, was among those specified in 1754. (fn. 14) A private carriage-way between the Cirencester road at Coneygar wood and Williamstrip Park in Coln St. Aldwyns had been built by 1824. (fn. 15) Coneygar Lodge, recorded in 1828, was rebuilt in the later 19th century. (fn. 16)\nThe church recorded in Quenington in 1100 presumably occupied the site of the parish church in the valley. In the late 12th century a preceptory of the Knights Hospitallers was founded to the southwest but, although some of its later out-buildings have survived, it had been demolished by the 17th century and Quenington Court was later built on the site. The houses near the church also include the former rectory and a former paper-mill, both dating from the 18th century.\nQuenington village grew up on rising ground to the north. Above it to the west a large triangular green, the junction of a road from Poulton with the route between Coln St. Aldwyns and Fairford, (fn. 17) comprised 3 a. in 1754 when it was confirmed as common. (fn. 18) An 18th-century house stands northeast of Church Road, which links the church and green, but most buildings, including some large houses and a school, are of the 19th century. Quenington House, an early-19th-century two-storey building north of Mawley Road, which descends eastwards from the green, was a farmhouse on the Hatherop estate in 1862. (fn. 19) Mawley House to the south-east was built as a farm-house c. 1808 by Robert Mawley. (fn. 20) The houses in Victoria Road, which runs north-eastwards from the foot of Church Road, include Mawley Farm and its early-19th-century out-buildings at the south-western end, the Long House to the east which was owned in the late 19th century by the builder William Joynes Godwin, (fn. 21) and a former corn-mill at the north-eastern end.\nThere was a smithy at the cross-roads northwest of the village by the late 17th century but the western end of the village was not developed until the later 19th century when estate cottages were built by the green. A factory south-west of the cross-roads established then by W. J. Godwin expanded after 1920. (fn. 22) He also built two pairs of cottages south of the Cirencester road in 1899 and 1914 respectively; (fn. 23) the former housed offices for the factory in 1976. On land in the north-eastern angle of the cross-roads, given for a cemetery in 1905, (fn. 24) a mortuary chapel had been built by 1920. (fn. 25) From the 1920s the area near the factory was chosen for council housing development, 14 semidetached houses being built east of the Fairford road in 1929, (fn. 26) 8 north of the Hatherop road, and an estate of 18 south of the green. Modern buildings in 1976 included the village hall, a nonconformist chapel, 8 bungalows for old people on the north-east side of the green, and several large private dwellings west of the Fairford road and in the village.\nHoneycomb Leaze Farm, the only building recorded by the road from Fairford to Ready Token in the 1770s, (fn. 27) was rebuilt in the early 19th century. To the north-west a house is dated 1931 with the initials of Ernest George Clifford who farmed at Honeycomb Leaze then, (fn. 28) and six detached houses north of the road are in the style of the 1930s. Of the other outlying buildings in the parish the barn north-east of Coneygar wood had been built by 1777. (fn. 29) To the north Coneygar Farm, which has some cottages near by, dates from the late 1870s (fn. 30) as probably do Coneygar Cottages, west of Coneygar Lodge. (fn. 31) Crossroads Cottages north of the Poulton road were built as estate cottages on the Williamstrip estate later in the century. (fn. 32) Donkeywell Farm to the south-west was built by S. J. Phillips c. 1960. (fn. 33)\nIn 1086 43 tenants were recorded in Quenington. (fn. 34) Sixteen people including the preceptor were assessed for the subsidy in 1327 (fn. 35) and 81 for poll tax in 1381. (fn. 36) The parish had only c. 16 communicants in 1551 (fn. 37) and 10 households in 1563 (fn. 38) but by 1650 there were 30 families. (fn. 39) From an estimate of 120 c. 1710 (fn. 40) the population increased considerably to 267 by c. 1775. (fn. 41) From 239 in 1801 it rose to 371 by 1841 and to 438 by 1871. It then fell to 357 by 1901 and, after rising to 388 by 1911, to 322 by 1921. By 1951 it had risen to 486 but by 1971 had dropped to 415. (fn. 42)\nIn 1755 one innholder was licensed (fn. 43) and c. 1840 the parish had two beerhouses (fn. 44) which by 1891 were called the Keeper's Arms and the Earl Grey. (fn. 45) The inns, standing in the angle of Church Road and Mawley Road and lower down Church Road respectively, were open in 1976 but a third beerhouse in the village, (fn. 46) recorded from 1870 (fn. 47) and called the Pig and Whistle by 1885, (fn. 48) has not been traced after 1939. (fn. 49)\nA cottage hospital for children, in Victoria Road south-west of the corn-mill, (fn. 50) was opened c. 1900 by Mrs. Allfrey, the tenant of Williamstrip Park, (fn. 51) and it continued with her support until her death in 1911. (fn. 52) The village hall south-east of the school in Church Road apparently stands on the site given for a parish institute in 1906. (fn. 53)\nIn the period 1276\u201390 Edward I was a frequent guest, usually in February or March, at Quenington Preceptory (fn. 54) which was consequently furnished with provisions. (fn. 55) Several owners of the manor who were figures of national importance, including Michael Edward Hicks Beach, who as Viscount St. Aldwyn provided street lighting in Quenington c. 1911, (fn. 56) are mentioned under Coln St. Aldwyns.\nEight hides of land in Quenington, held as 3 manors by Aluuold and two men called Dodo in 1066, (fn. 57) passed to Walter de Lacy (fn. 58) (d. 1085), whose son Roger (fn. 59) held them in 1086. (fn. 60) On Roger's banishment in 1096 the property passed to his brother Hugh (d. by 1115). (fn. 61) It then apparently descended to Hugh's granddaughter Agnes, wife of William de Munchensy, (fn. 62) probably the Agnes de Lacy who with her daughter Sibyl granted QUENINGTON manor to the Knights Hospitallers in the mid 12th century. (fn. 63) The Hospitallers, who established a preceptory at Quenington c. 1193 (fn. 64) and from whom Edmund Tame of Fairford leased land there before 1506, (fn. 65) held the manor until the Dissolution (fn. 66) and during the short-lived revival of their order in England which ended in 1558. (fn. 67)\nIn August 1545 the Crown granted the manor to Richard Morrison (fn. 68) but in the following month it conferred the estate on Sir Anthony Kingston, the lessee of the demesne. (fn. 69) After Sir Anthony's death in 1556 the manor passed to his illegitimate son Edmund Kingston (fn. 70) (d. 1590) and then in the direct line to Anthony (fn. 71) (d. 1591) and William. (fn. 72) At William's death in 1614 the manor passed to his widow Mary for life. (fn. 73) Mary, who married Sherrington Talbot and granted a lease of the estate in 1649, was evidently succeeded by William Powle of Coln St. Aldwyns who had purchased the reversion in 1648. William, by will proved 1657, left the manor to his nephew Henry Powle (fn. 74) with whose Williamstrip estate it then descended. (fn. 75) In 1847 the estate owned 790 a. in the parish, where it acquired 225 a. from the Tombs family in 1879 (fn. 76) and 172 a. from the Mawley family in 1900. (fn. 77) In the mid 20th century Earl St. Aldwyn sold off parts of his estate, Donkeywell farm eventually passing in 1954 to S. J. Phillips & Sons (Kemble) Ltd. which bought Mawley (Crossroads) farm (401 a.) from the earl in 1961. After S. J. Phillips's death in 1965 his property was sold to Alexander Black Mitchell (fn. 78) (d. 1972) whose widow Violette held it in 1976. (fn. 79)\nAfter the Dissolution the preceptory became a farm-house (fn. 80) but the laying-out of ornamental gardens, including water gardens, on the site in the early 17th century (fn. 81) suggests that a manor-house had been built there by then. The house, which would have been lived in only for a short time as a manor-house, was presumably the farm-house called the Court c. 1770. (fn. 82) Quenington Court which dates from a rebuilding of the 19th century was sold with 19 a. by Earl St. Aldwyn in 1969 to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gollins. (fn. 83) The out-buildings standing in 1976 included to the north a 14th-century gateway, partly reconstructed and extended to the north-west in the early 16th century, and to the north-west a round dovecot, possibly of the 17th century, with a revolving ladder.\nThere were several smaller estates in the parish in the 18th and 19th centuries. (fn. 84) Land held by John Vokins (d. c. 1710) passed in turn to his sons John (d. 1714) and William. After William's death c. 1754 the estate was held by his widow Catherine (fn. 85) who was allotted c. 211 a. at inclosure in 1754. (fn. 86) Catherine (d. 1768) left it to her nephew Charles Stephens (d. 1781), whose devisee John Wakefield sold it to Estcourt Cresswell of Bibury in 1789. (fn. 87) In the early 19th century Estcourt Cresswell and his son Richard Estcourt Cresswell sold parts of the property totalling c. 110 a. to the lord of the manor. (fn. 88)\nAllotments of 224 a. and 239 a. to John Carey and Thomas Hamblet respectively in 1754 (fn. 89) comprised land in the southern part of the parish. (fn. 90) Part of their property evidently passed to James Haynes whose estate of c. 338 a. was put up for sale in the 1830s after his bankruptcy. (fn. 91) Jenkin Thomas, a dissenting minister of Cheltenham, acquired part, and his estate, which c. 1840 comprised c. 297 a., (fn. 92) included land held in the right of his wife Mary Harriet, daughter and heir of James Tombs (d. 1825) and heir to an estate called Godwins in the mid 18th century. (fn. 93) Part of Jenkin Thomas's estate was bought in 1847 by Lord de Mauley of Hatherop, (fn. 94) whose son Ashley George John Ponsonby acquired most of the rest before 1860. (fn. 95) The Hatherop estate, which had acquired c. 62 a. from the lord of the manor in 1778, (fn. 96) included 567 a. in the parish in 1862. (fn. 97) The land was sold in the mid 20th century save for c. 80 a. north of the village. (fn. 98)\nBy 1086 the manor, on which 16 ploughs were recorded, had risen in value from \u00a38 in 1066 to \u00a310 and had a demesne worked by 3 ploughs and 12 servi. (fn. 99) In 1338, when the demesne included 644 a. of arable, sheep-farming was important but a flock of 330 was apparently farmed out, possibly for \u00a310 a year. The preceptory did not retain a shepherd but a swineherd was among those receiving stipends. (fn. 100) The demesne, which with its tithes was let at farm for \u00a310 by 1535 (fn. 101) and was farmed for \u00a320 14s. 10\u00bdd. by 1541, (fn. 102) comprised 609 a. of arable, 205 a. of pasture, and 64 a. of meadow in 1545. (fn. 103)\nIn 1086 the manorial tenants included 20 villani, 7 bordars, and a reeve with 12 ploughs. The estate also supported 2 radknights with one plough and in Gloucester there was a burgess rendering 4 iron ploughshares and a smith paying 2s. (fn. 104) The assized rents of all of the preceptory's free and customary tenants were worth \u00a330 in 1338. (fn. 105) Those in Quenington were valued at 2s. and \u00a312 9s. 6d. respectively in 1535 (fn. 106) but in 1541, when two tenements with 3 yardlands and 13 a. of arable were let at farm for 30s., the rents of the customary tenants, holding by copy for terms of lives, were worth \u00a37 1s. 6d. and those of 6 tenants holding at will \u00a33 3s. 5d. (fn. 107)\nThe two open fields recorded from 1624 (fn. 108) were a north and a south field (fn. 109) and in 1753 they included c. 1,304 a. (fn. 110) Quenington Downs, the main common in 1507, (fn. 111) lay north of the Cirencester road in the north-west corner of the parish (fn. 112) and there the manor had common pasture for 400 sheep in 1545. (fn. 113) The taking of parts into severalty had begun by 1624 (fn. 114) and by 1753 only 14 a. remained commonable. (fn. 115) The 10 a. of meadow land belonging to the manor in 1086 probably included watermeadows, (fn. 116) and c. 1680 Grandage meadow, part of the Williamstrip estate east of Coln bridge, was valued at \u00a390. (fn. 117) The Mill Ham north-east of the village between the river and mill leat may have been a common meadow, for in the later 18th and the 19th centuries the glebe included a strip there. (fn. 118) Sufficient pasture was needed for sheep, one farmer having a flock of 300 c. 1580, (fn. 119) and the use of land in the northern part of the parish by the river as sheep-pastures is indicated by the number of fields there called slaits. (fn. 120)\nBy 1753 at least 159 a. had been inclosed (fn. 121) and most of the remaining open and commonable land was inclosed by Act of Parliament the following year under an award which affected 1,306 a. Humphrey Praed, lord of the manor and chief beneficiary, was allotted 362 a. and of four other principal landowners Edmund King 138 a. The rector was awarded 58 a. for his open-field glebe, and 74 a. was contained in allotments to ten small landowners. (fn. 122)\nIn 1831 8 farmers employed 43 labourers. (fn. 123) The farms varied considerably in size in the 19th century. On the Williamstrip estate in 1861 Manor (later Court) farm had 601 a. and 109 a. were farmed from Hartwell Farm in Maiseyhampton. (fn. 124) The following year the Hatherop estate included a farm of 543 a. and Honeycomb Leaze farm which had 24 a. (fn. 125) Two freehold farms of 220 a. and 176 a. respectively in 1871 were later taken into the Williamstrip estate, (fn. 126) on which Coneygar farm, comprising 517 a. in Quenington and Bibury, had been created by 1879 (fn. 127) and Manor farm had been reduced to 263 a. by 1903. (fn. 128) In 1926 when 59 agricultural labourers worked in the parish full-time there were 13 farmers. Six of the farmers were smallholders with less than 20 a. each and the other farms were three over 300 a., two of 150\u2013300 a., and two of 20\u201350 a. (fn. 129) Of 10 farms returned for Quenington and Maiseyhampton in 1976 four had less than 20 ha. (50 a.) each, three were of 50\u2013100 ha. (123\u2013247 a.), and the other three each had over 200 ha. (494 a.). (fn. 130)\nAfter inclosure the parish was given over to mixed farming (fn. 131) and in the 19th century much land was farmed as arable, growing mainly cereals and turnips with some beans and peas. (fn. 132) In 1866, 1,578 a. were returned as arable or grass leys and only 139 a. as permanent grass. Large flocks of sheep were kept and then included at least 1,896 animals. (fn. 133) In the late 19th century and early 20th the area of permanent grassland was enlarged but arable farming retained its importance and in 1926 1,287 a. of arable and rotated grass were returned. During that period sheep-farming continued on a large scale and more cattle were introduced; in 1926 355 cattle, including 22 milk cows, were returned, (fn. 134) compared to 56 in 1866. (fn. 135) In 1880 there was a flock of Hampshire Down sheep and a herd of shorthorn cattle on Manor farm, (fn. 136) and between 1889 and 1906 a dairyman lived in the parish. (fn. 137) Pig-rearing and poultry-farming were also important in 1926. (fn. 138) Arable retained its importance in 1976 when much land was under cereals but several farms in Quenington and Maiseyhampton specialised in dairying. Sheep and beef cattle were also raised then. (fn. 139)\nThe two mills on the manor in 1086 (fn. 140) presumably occupied the sites of the water-mill and fulling-mill recorded in 1338. (fn. 141) In the former, a corn-mill in 1507, (fn. 142) Richard Morton had an interest in the early 18th century. (fn. 143) Richard Aldridge owned it in 1776 (fn. 144) and it was bought by Samuel Blackwell in 1783 (fn. 145) to pass with the manor until 1871 (fn. 146) when, as part of an exchange, it was transferred to T. S. Bazley's Hatherop estate. (fn. 147) The mill, a 19th-century building in Victoria Road, went out of use apparently after 1920. (fn. 148)\nIn the early 18th century the site of the fullingmill south of the church, which then included a gigmill and dye-house, was owned by William Thomas and the clothier Richard Pinfold (d. by 1725). (fn. 149) Richard's grandson Edward Pinfold sold it in 1731 to Charles Morgan of Fairford who in 1735 conveyed the fulling-mill to his great-nephew Charles Morgan. At his death in 1755 the mill passed to his widow Elizabeth and was sold by his son Robert in 1775 to John Raymond who later inherited Fairford manor. (fn. 150) By 1738 the mill had been leased to Joshua Carby for making paper. (fn. 151) He died there in 1791 (fn. 152) and Joshua Carby Radway, (fn. 153) who in 1820 was licensed to operate a papermaking machine there, (fn. 154) worked it until his death in 1840. The site included a new mill and a rag house in 1830 (fn. 155) and had four beating engines in 1851. William Alfred West, who was making newspaper from straw by 1860, (fn. 156) still worked there in 1876 (fn. 157) but the mill had apparently gone out of use by 1879. (fn. 158) In 1976 an 18th-century mill and mill-house, then called Knight mill, survived at the site.\nIn 1811 44 families were supported by agriculture and as many as 24 by trade but by 1831 the latter figure had fallen to sixteen. (fn. 159) William Godwin, one of two builders mentioned in 1879, (fn. 160) was presumably William Joynes Godwin, (fn. 161) who was dealing in drain pipes and cisterns among other things by 1894. By 1919 he had been succeeded by Harold J. Godwin and by 1939 the firm of H. J. Godwin Ltd. specialised in pumpingmachinery (fn. 162) and employed c. 100 people. (fn. 163) In 1974, when the firm was no longer owned by the Godwin family, its c. 140 employees made a wide range of pumping equipment. (fn. 164) It remained an important employer in 1976.\nIn 1338 the services of a baker, cook, and laundress were retained for the preceptor, two other knights, and their dependants. (fn. 165) Most of the usual village trades have been recorded. The village smithy in the south-eastern angle of the cross-roads north-west of the village was mentioned in 1678. (fn. 166) It was worked by one or both smiths mentioned in 1856 (fn. 167) but was closed shortly after 1920 since when no smith has been recorded in the parish. (fn. 168) There were two carpenters in 1856 (fn. 169) and from 1889 at least one. (fn. 170) Masons were recorded from 1608 (fn. 171) and the parish had a plasterer in 1910. (fn. 172) In the later 19th century several lime-kilns, including some at Honeycomb Leaze, were worked. (fn. 173) Tailors were mentioned in 1381 (fn. 174) and the 19th century, and dress-makers between 1897 and 1923. (fn. 175) In 1608 there was a shoemaker, (fn. 176) a trade followed in the later 19th century. The inhabitants included a butcher in the 1860s and a baker and shopkeepers from the mid 19th century. Among the trades recorded in the later 19th century were those of draper, tea-dealer, and mealman (fn. 177) and in the mid 20th century a hurdle-maker lived in the parish. (fn. 178) There was a village post office in 1976.\nThe courts of the Knights Hospitallers mentioned in 1338 (fn. 179) presumably included the manor court and an annual view of frankpledge held there in 1535. (fn. 180) The lord of the manor had leet jurisdiction c. 1710 (fn. 181) but no later record of that or the manor court has been found.\nTwo churchwardens were recorded from 1498 (fn. 182) but there were three in 1683 and 1807 (fn. 183) and occasionally only one in the later 18th and early 19th centuries. (fn. 184) Their accounts survive from 1744 and their expenses between 1802 and 1830 were met out of the poor-rate. (fn. 185) There were two overseers of the poor in 1672 (fn. 186) but only one between 1802 and 1830. (fn. 187) The annual cost of poor-relief rose from \u00a367 in 1776 to \u00a3180 by 1803, when 18 people were receiving permanent help, (fn. 188) and to \u00a3343 by 1813 when 20 people were regularly helped. It had dropped to \u00a3169 by 1815 (fn. 189) but in the late 1820s and early 1830s it remained at over \u00a3200. (fn. 190) In 1836 the parish became part of the Cirencester poor-law union (fn. 191) and remained in Cirencester rural district (fn. 192) until 1974 when it was included in Cotswold district.\nThe church at Quenington was presumably served by the priest recorded there in 1086, (fn. 193) and in 1100 the bishop of Worcester awarded a pension of 2 marks in it to Gloucester Abbey. The abbey later took a portion of the demesne tithes and held a yardland, (fn. 194) and claimed to hold the church by the grant of Hugh de Lacy (fn. 195) but the Knights Hospitallers secured their right to the church, those tithes, and that land in the mid 12th century and agreed to pay the abbey the pension, half of which was to come from the living. Payment was in arrears c. 1260. (fn. 196) About 1439 the abbey gave up its right to the pension in return for a grant of property in Gloucester from the Hospitallers, (fn. 197) who subsequently received the mark from the living. (fn. 198) It was being paid to the patron in the later 19th century. (fn. 199) The living, which was a rectory in 1287, (fn. 200) was united in 1928 with Coln St. Aldwyns and Hatherop. (fn. 201)\nThe patronage, which the prior of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem in England exercised in 1279, (fn. 202) passed with the manor. (fn. 203) Presentations were made by Jerome Barnard, patron for the turn, in 1555 and by Henry Banner, after he had relinquished the living, in 1577, (fn. 204) and in 1603 Sir Thomas Conway was said to be patron. (fn. 205) The patronage for a turn of Sir Lewis Dive was contested in 1636 and the Crown was patron for a turn in 1745. (fn. 206) In 1976 the patronage of the united benefice was shared by Earl St. Aldwyn, the dean and chapter of Gloucester, and Sir Thomas Bazley. (fn. 207)\nThe Hospitallers took the demesne tithes and by 1535 had let them at farm with the demesne. (fn. 208) After the Dissolution their land, Court farm with 12 yardlands, was described as tithe free since the rector received no tithes from it; (fn. 209) its tithes were valued at \u00a330 c. 1710. (fn. 210) Old inclosures at Honeycomb Leaze were also tithe free (fn. 211) and some of the tithes from them were sold in 1789 by Thomas Hamblet. (fn. 212) The rector took all the tithes from the rest of the parish. (fn. 213) They had been let at \u00a360 before the inclosure of 1754 when they were commuted for rent-charges totalling \u00a380, increasing after six years to \u00a390. (fn. 214) By the mid 19th century they had been converted to corn-rent-charges. (fn. 215) Of the glebe, which comprised 100 a. of arable in 1535, (fn. 216) 80 a. of open-field land had been let at \u00a314 by 1754 when the rector was allotted 58 a. for them. (fn. 217) The glebe contained 62 a. in 1907 (fn. 218) when 59 a. were sold to Viscount St. Aldwyn. (fn. 219) The rectory was valued at \u00a39 6s. 8d. in 1291 (fn. 220) but only \u00a37 18s. 2d. clear in 1535. (fn. 221) Its value had risen to \u00a360 by 1650, (fn. 222) \u00a3100 by 1750, (fn. 223) and \u00a3204 by 1856. (fn. 224)\nThe rectory house north-east of the church was a two-storey building of 8 bays with 4 rooms on each floor in 1704. (fn. 225) The main south-east front facing the mill leat dates from the 18th century and a large back wing was added before 1807. (fn. 226) Since 1928 the incumbent has lived in Coln St. Aldwyns (fn. 227) and in 1929 the house was sold to the Hatherop estate (fn. 228) and enlarged. (fn. 229) It was enlarged again in 1963. (fn. 230)\nWhen Ralph de Hokyngton resigned the living in 1309 it was granted in commendam for 6 months to Andrew de Tothale, (fn. 231) and Andrew, who later also held it with Stondon vicarage (Essex) (fn. 232) and was licensed in 1316 to be absent for 2 years, (fn. 233) surrendered it to Ralph in 1318 upon an exchange. (fn. 234) Between 1378 and 1417 the rectory figured in at least nine exchanges of livings. (fn. 235) Anthony Aldwyn, who could not repeat the Commandments in 1551, (fn. 236) was deprived in 1555 for being married. Henry Banner, rector from 1558, (fn. 237) who also held the adjacent benefice of Coln St. Aldwyns but was resident, (fn. 238) was deprived in 1577. His successor Thomas Skinner, (fn. 239) who was considered no preacher but a sufficient scholar in 1593, (fn. 240) resigned in 1619. George Albert, who became rector in 1636 (fn. 241) after serving in Germany during the Thirty Years' War, (fn. 242) was with Prince Maurice's army in the West Country during the Civil War. (fn. 243) Nevertheless he retained the living in 1650, when he was described as a preaching minister, (fn. 244) and died in 1668. (fn. 245) His successor John Jones (d. 1673) and Richard Hutchins, rector 1745\u20139, both held the adjacent living of Hatherop. (fn. 246) Hutchins's predecessor Henry Allen, rector from 1732, was removed for simony. John Pettat, rector from 1789, (fn. 247) lived at Stonehouse, where he was vicar until 1798, and appointed curates to serve Quenington (fn. 248) which he resigned in 1797. His son Thomas, who succeeded him and also became rector of Hatherop, resigned Quenington the following year. John apparently became rector again, holding the living until c. 1810 and appointing a curate in 1799. (fn. 249) John William Peters, rector 1823\u201334, was later an active nonconformist in Quenington and Fairford. (fn. 250)\nThe church, which was called St. Mary's in the 12th century, (fn. 251) was dedicated to ST. SWITHIN by 1735 (fn. 252) but it bore an invocation to the Holy Rood in the 18th and early 19th centuries. (fn. 253) It is built of limestone rubble and ashlar and has a chancel with north vestry and a nave with north and south porches. A central tower with spire, for which there is now no certain architectural evidence although it could have arisen from within the east end of the nave, was said to have been removed by the early 18th century. (fn. 254) A west tower, not shown in a view of 1790 (fn. 255) and possibly added shortly before 1825, (fn. 256) was demolished in 1882 when the church was extensively restored. (fn. 257)\nThe lower stages of the walls of the nave and chancel are substantially of the later 12th century, having a continuous string-course and flat buttresses, and the north and south doorways are both of three richly decorated orders. That to the north has the Harrowing of Hell on the tympanum (fn. 258) and that to the south the Coronation of the Virgin. The only other medieval features to have survived are the windows of the chancel, those to the north and south being of the 13th century and that to the east of the 15th century. The present side windows of the nave are square-headed and probably of the 17th century. At the 19th-century restoration a west window and bellcot, a north porch of open timberwork, and a canopy to the south doorway were added to the nave, and a vestry was added to the chancel. The chancel was also rebuilt, perhaps to a new design. A western gallery, where the organ had stood in 1867, was removed. (fn. 259)\nMonuments to members of the Powle and Ireton families and to some rectors have been reset in the west end of the nave. (fn. 260) The font, which is of the later 16th century, has a hood dated 1662. The central tower and spire were said to have held six bells in the late 16th century but c. 1703 the church had only two. (fn. 261) A bell cast by Abel Rudhall in 1757 (fn. 262) was the only bell in the mid 19th century but another was added at the restoration of 1882. (fn. 263) The plate includes a chalice and paten of 1579. (fn. 264) The surviving registers begin in 1653 (fn. 265) and contain entries for Netherton, a hamlet on the boundary of Hatherop and Fairford, in the 19th century. (fn. 266)\nTwo protestant nonconformists and two papists were recorded in the parish in 1676 (fn. 267) and one Independent in the mid 18th century. (fn. 268) A house occupied by the Revd. W. Lawrie was registered for use by protestant dissenters in 1822 (fn. 269) but there were no meetings in the parish in 1825. (fn. 270)\nPremises in Quenington were registered for dissenting worship by Jenkin Thomas, a Baptist minister of Cheltenham and a local landowner, (fn. 271) in 1834 and by John William Peters, who resigned that year as rector, in 1835. (fn. 272) The latter were probably for the Baptists who in 1838 built a chapel which had attendances of up to 50 in 1851. (fn. 273) By 1854, when it had a burial ground, it was in bad repair (fn. 274) and the meeting ceased in the early 1880s. (fn. 275)\nNo other record has been found of a house registered in 1851 (fn. 276) but a meeting of Plymouth Brethren recorded from the early 1880s (fn. 277) used a room adjoining the Long House until c. 1900 when it moved to the smithy north-west of the village. (fn. 278) It met there until at least 1939. (fn. 279) From c. 1880 Congregationalists met in a room adjoining Mawley Farm. (fn. 280) The meeting, which had 8 members in 1898 and was connected with the Fairford chapel, (fn. 281) ceased after 1939. (fn. 282) In 1926 an evangelical congregation bought a small building at the south-western corner of the green and used it until 1961 when a chapel was built south of the green. In 1976 the meeting, which used the name Christian Brethren, had between 20 and 30 members. (fn. 283)\nIn 1616 Marmaduke Watson was teaching at Quenington without a licence. (fn. 284) The poor lacked sufficient means of education in 1818 when only eight girls were taught in a privately supported day-school. There were separate Sunday schools financed by voluntary contributions for 26 boys and 12 girls. (fn. 285) A day-school was begun in 1831 and by 1833, when the income was supplied by contributions and pence, it taught 35 children. At that time a Sunday school taught 28. (fn. 286) In 1847 a dame school taught 22 children and there were separate Sunday schools for 18 boys and 19 girls. (fn. 287)\nA church school, which in 1854 had 40 children with more on Sundays, met in a small cottage (fn. 288) until 1856 when the National school was built on land belonging to Sir M. E. Hicks Beach (fn. 289) south-west of Church Road. (fn. 290) It had an average attendance of 42 in 1871 and was supported by voluntary contributions. (fn. 291) The average attendance rose to 63 by 1885 and in 1901 61 children were taught in two classes. (fn. 292) It was later called Quenington C. of E. school; its attendance fell to 43 by 1922 (fn. 293) and, after the juniors were transferred to Hatherop in 1929, (fn. 294) to 15 by 1936. (fn. 295) In 1970 the school also became the infants' school for Coln St.Aldwyns and Hatherop and in 1976 there were 20 children on the roll. (fn. 296)\nCatherine Ireton by will proved 1715 left a rent-charge of \u00a310 to be distributed, as at Coln St. Aldwyns, among the Protestant poor of the parish annually. (fn. 297) By 1748 a coat for a man and a gown for a woman were provided each year. (fn. 298) The remaining income was spent on bread. (fn. 299) In 1970, under a Scheme of 1907, investments provided an income of \u00a312, used to buy bread. (fn. 300)\n2. Glos. R.O., D 540/E 10; O.S. Map 6\u2033, Glos. LII. NE. (1886 edn.).\n3.

Dunbia is a large lamb processor in Wales, and the Managing Director said he would be interested in meeting with Dr Chih-Kung with a view to exporting lamb to Taiwan. I told him that I would arrange a visit to Dunbia\u2019s plant in Llanybydder and also invite Dr. Liu Chih-Kunt to the Royal Welsh Show, which could facilitate the development of that trade. This is very good news for lamb producers in Wales, because the UK produces 40% more lamb than is consumed in this country. So we desperately need these export opportunities.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Industry sector schemes\nThe Construction Products Regulation (CPR) has been adopted by the European Commission and UK Government and replaces the Construction Products Directive (CPD). As a result of the change, CE marking will soon become mandatory in the UK. Manufacturers and importers have until July 2013 to ensure that their construction products meet the CE requirements of the new Regulation.\nAccording to the Regulation, the requirement for CE marking will apply to:\n\"any product or kit which is produced and placed on the market for incorporation in a permanent manner in construction works or parts thereof and the performance of which has an effect on the performance of the construction works with respect to the basic requirements for construction works.\"\nSo any products that fall under this definition that are placed on the market from July 2013 and are covered by a harmonised standard, will have to be accompanied by a Declaration of Performance and will need to display the CE mark.\nThe move to CPR builds on the success of the CPD, allowing construction products that have been assessed against harmonised standards to be legally placed on the market anywhere in the European Economic Area.\nHow does CPR affect you?\nIf you manufacture or import products that are within the scope of the Regulation, you will be required to declare that the product complies with the Regulation and display the CE mark, before they can be sold in the UK and Europe.\nThe responsibility for ensuring that a product has the correct characteristics for a particular application rests with the building designers, contractors and local building authorities, and manufacturers and importers will be required to provide the necessary testing evidence.\nHow can BSI help you prepare for CPR?\nKitemark can help you prepare for 2013, when CE marking will become mandatory under the Construction Product Regulations. Kitemark certification exceeds the basic requirements of CE marking and demonstrates the quality and reliability of your products. Kitemark includes the initial type testing required for CE marking, so we can provide the evidence that you need to comply with the new regulations.\nFind out more about the new construction regulations\nWe are also able to provide expert advice on the requirements of the CPR and its implications for construction products. To find out how our testing and certification services can help you comply with the CPR please email cprinfo@bsigroup.com\nAs BSI is a Notified Body for the Construction Products Directive, we can help you to prepare for the Construction Products Regulations by CE marking your products now.\nAs more and more harmonised European standards are published, CE marking is applicable to an ever increasingly number of construction products under the Construction Products Directive (CPD).\nManufacturers continue to face a complex global market place, affected by multiple regulatory systems, international and national standards and certification requirements. This complex environment is dynamic, influenced by many national and international forums and initiatives, particularly the drive towards global harmonisation.\nWe offer a range of standards, books and guides.\nSee our selection of technical handbooks\nBrowse our entire standards collection\nFor inquiries about BSI Kitemark, CE marking or product testing.\nThe cost of product certification varies by directive and scheme.

        "raw_content": "This Straight Couple Are Fighting For Their Right To Get A Civil Partnership\n\"The option of a civil partnership is not open to us. Why? Just because we are of different genders.\"\nLast year, straight couple Rebecca Steinfeld and Charles Keidan said that they were going to get civilly partnered rather than married \"in order to push for full marriage equality.\"\nBut after facing difficulty achieving this, the couple took their fight for equality even further this month: They have launched a legal challenge against the ban on heterosexual couples entering into civil partnerships.\nSpeaking on the petition site Change.org, the couple explained why the option should be available to couples like them.\nThe option of a civil partnership is not open to us, nor to thousands of other long-term cohabiting couples. Why? Just because we are of different genders. When we sought to give \"notice of intention\" to form a civil partnership at Chelsea Old Town Hall on 1st October, we were refused by the Registrars and told to leave the premises. The reason for this humiliating experience: The Civil Partnership Act 2004 stipulates that only same-sex couples can enter into civil partnerships. Now, same-sex couples can choose whether to have a civil partnership or marriage. However, as the law stands, opposite-sex couples cannot choose between civil partnership and marriage. This means that rights and privileges are extended to one group of people whilst being denied to others. Legalising same-sex marriage was the recognition that LGBTQI people are of equal worth and have the right to equal treatment under the law. We campaigned for such recognition and rights for same-sex couples, and we believe the same principle of equality applies to all couples regardless of sexual orientation.\nIt is believed that the couple, who are expecting their first child next year, are the first to take the issue to British court.\nSteinfeld and Keidan \u2013 who are both academics \u2013 told The Guardian how they tried to hold the ceremony in October, but were refused. \"The registrar was very sympathetic but confirmed we were of the opposite sex and said consequently she could not provide a civil partnership,\" Steinfeld said. \"I asked if she would consider an act of civil disobedience. She said: 'It's not worth my job.'\"\nThe couple also said that there is public support for their cause.\n\"We know there is a clear public mandate for opening civil partnerships to all,\" they wrote on their petition page. They reference the government's consultation in 2012 found that 78,556 people (61% of respondent) supported the extension of civil partnerships to opposite-sex couples.\nTwo years later, the government has yet to make any changes to the law.\nThey added: \"This seems wrong to us. We want it to change. So we are calling on the Equalities Minister, Nicky Morgan, to open civil partnerships to all, regardless of sexual orientation.\"\nThey are now asking people to donate to their legal costs to fight for \"civil partnerships for all.\"",

        "raw_content": "34 | Aliyah Washington | Your Body Is On Your Side.\nSeptember 24, 2018 Rande Moss / Aliyah Washington\nYOUR BODY IS ON YOUR SIDE WITH ALIYAH WASHINGTON.\nIf you've been listening since early on this year, you'll have heard Aliyah on episode 2, sharing her journey through anorexia and today we go much, much deeper. I actually split this episode into two parts as it got long but I didn't want to cut any of it.\nAs I've merged topics like eating disorder recovery with potentially extreme lifestyles and practices like colon cleansing and juicing, I've worried that folks could take things to an extreme and I've tried to be very careful about how I've approached these subjects. One of the biggest things we talked about in this conversation was how disordered eating often begins in a simple desire to just FEEL BETTER when we're in so much pain and discomfort. And because we're in so much pain and discomfort, many of us tend to reach for the most extreme version of the most extreme thing whether it's long fasts or technically perfect diets but without context or transition or embodiment. And I see this happening in the world of exploring spirituality where there are so many trying to \"crush our egos\" or \"overcome our shadows\" or we're jumping into long meditation retreats or taking ayahuasca over and over again - and again, I think that some of this stuff is a natural reaction to wanting to be out of the pain that we're in. But truly, it's gentle steps - and becoming curious about and understanding of our ego or our shadow or our painful habits - that will really begin to shift our experience sustainably and allow us to grow rather than chasing our tails and constantly starting over.\nWhen I approached the idea of this interview I wanted to call it something like \"how to be spiritual or how to cleanse without being crazy\" - and I ultimately decided that as catchy as it was it was a little harsh - and I ended up calling it \"your body is on your side\" because Aliyah and I created a program with that same name. We created it with the idea that freedom is so much more than just being free to eat whatever you want or being a certain size or being comfortable at whatever that size is. We introduce the idea that your body is actually your best guide in navigating this human life and that there is so much beyond the surface of food and weight pain. This is a course you can take anytime at your own pace and I'll leave the link below as well as links to Aliyah's other offerings!\nYou'll hear us talk about...\n...Holistically addressing mental, phyical, and spiritual health IN THE LONG RUN.\n...Aliyah's history with anorexia that began with being a very sick child and wanting to feel better.\n...How you think you should feel on any particular diet or healing regimen vs. what you're seeing in reality.\n...How we can begin making everything in our world right including our emotions, our symptoms, and any way our body reacts.\n...What's going on when we feel we're eating perfectly and not getting better or losing weight.\nAnd so much more, I hope you enjoy part 1 of this conversation with Aliyah Washington.",

She spent six years at GGT, where she created award-winning campaigns for Cadbury Flake, Cadbury Creme Eggs, Wispa, Holsten Pils, Access (Mastercard), Nurofen, Lurpak, and Seconda. Stanners is a member of WACL and the RSA, and sits on the IPA Council.\nKate's choices\nGuardian \"Three little pigs\"\nThe Guardian\u2019s 2012 campaign, its first for 25 years, examines the way in which the tale of the Three Little Pigs might be covered by the Guardian today.\nIn an ironic retelling of the fairytale, the Three Little Pigs\u2019 brutal killing of the Big Bad Wolf launches a storm of public reaction, revealing how the readership contributes to the news agenda.\nThe campaign exposes the way stories develop as new facts emerge, and the effect social media has on news coverage and debate.\nGuinness \"sapeurs\"\nDiageo\u2019s Guinness campaign stars the Sapeurs, the \"society of elegant persons of the Congo\" in the Congolese capital Brazzaville. The Sapeurs' integrity shines even brighter than their suits as they demonstrate that they are not defined by profession or prosperity, but by their resolve to be who they want, no matter the circumstances.\nCreated by AMV BBDO, the campaign forms part of Guinness's \"Made of More\" strategy, which showcases extraordinary people from around the world. 'The Sapeurs' campaign, and an additional documentary about the men, won seven awards across several categories at the Cannes Lions Festival, including two silvers in the Film category, two bronzes for Non-Fiction: Film and Online in the Branded Content & Entertainment category and a further three bronzes in the Film Craft Lions category for Achievement in Production, Direction, and Casting.\nNike \"Write the future\"\nThis is one of the most successful Nike football campaigns. It it reveals how footballers have the chance to become legends during the World Cup.\nThe ad was directed by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu. Wieden + Kennedy, the creators of the campaign, were awarded The World\u2019s Best Idea award at the 2011 New York Festivals International Avertising Award.\nThe campaign won other top awards, including Best of Show at One Show, a Grandy, and it beat Puma\u2019s 'After Hours Athlete' to win the Film Grand Prix at the Cannes International Festival of Creativity. The campaign received more than 35 million views on YouTube.\nThe Thinkboxes are the first awards to celebrate the UK's world-beating TV ad creativity, in all its forms, at regular way-points throughout the year. Created in association with Haymarket Brand Media (Campaign, Marketing and Brand Republic), these bi-monthly awards are judged by the Thinkbox Creative Academy; made up of over 200 advertising luminaries.",

        "raw_content": "How to Prepare for AP Classes and Exams\nLearn how to conquer challenging AP classes and exams with the confidence of a soon-to-be college student\nBy Sydney Nikols | March 18, 2014\nIt's important that you make room for some extra study time in order to get ready for the exam.\nIt\u2019s normal to have a few concerns before taking your first AP class or exam, but don\u2019t let those worries hinder your success. If you know what to expect and how to prepare, your experience with The College Board\u2019s AP program will be a positive and rewarding one.\nWhat to Expect from an AP Class\nIn order to quell some of the mystery surrounding AP classes, The College Board has helpfully outlined what students can expect from taking an AP course. The board explains that their 30-plus AP classes are designed to be college-level courses that take place in a high school setting. The challenging classes dole out heavy workloads, ultimately giving you a leg up by allowing you to \u201ctake risks in a familiar setting, gaining confidence and a rewarding experience in addition to college credit and placement.\u201d The classes are meant to help you learn how to manage your own time, just like you\u2019ll have to do in college. Generally, you can expect your AP course to be immersive, hands-on, dialogue-centric and collaborative, all in ways that will ultimately help you prepare for being a successful college student.\nThe best way to prepare for an AP exam is by taking the corresponding class.\nHow to Prepare for an AP Class\nAs a first step towards succeeding in your upcoming AP class, make sure to complete your summer homework thoroughly, making an effort to understand all of the concepts involved. If you\u2019re confused about a certain idea, ask your teacher for further explanation as soon as the course begins. Small gaps in understanding can lead to big heaps of confusion, ultimately threatening your ability to do well in the course and on the exam.\nOnce the class has begun, start experimenting with different study strategies. Try studying alone, in a group, using flashcards, writing outlines, etc. Implementing trial and error is the best way to discover which study methods work best for you, and the sooner you figure this out, the sooner you\u2019ll find success.\nFinally, procrastination is your worst enemy when it comes to excelling in an AP course. Never wait until the last minute to complete an assignment or study for an exam. Give yourself plenty of time to make sure that your homework and studying sessions are completed thoroughly and properly. The best way to ensure success is to make sure you don\u2019t fall behind!\nOnce the class has begun, start experimenting with different study strategies.\nHow to Prepare for an AP Exam\nThe best way to prepare for an AP exam is by taking the corresponding class, so if you\u2019re enrolled in one of these, you\u2019re already ahead of the game. That being said, it\u2019s still important that you make room for some extra study time in order to get ready for the exam. The best way to study on your own is to take a mock test by answering the practice questions posted on The College Board\u2019s website. You should aim for a score of 4 or 5; either of these will impress college admissions officers and most likely earn your college course credit.\nRemember: These classes and exams are challenging, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t conquer them. With the right approach and work ethic, you can head to college knowing you achieved your personal best with The College Board\u2019s AP program.\nAP Classes: An Introduction\nKnow the Facts About AP Tests Before Test Day\nSeniors: Complete Your AP Tests Before Summer\nPrevious: 6 California Colleges for Economics Majors",

        "raw_content": "Panitumumab, Combination Chemotherapy, and Radiation Therapy Before Surgery in Treating Patients With Advanced Esophageal or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer\nAdenocarcinoma of the Esophagus - Adenocarcinoma of the Gastroesophageal Junction - Stage II Esophageal Cancer\nName: panitumumab Type: Biological\nName: leucovorin calcium Type: Drug\nName: radiation therapy Type: Radiation\nName: high performance liquid chromatography Type: Other\nName: pharmacological study Type: Other\nName: pharmacogenomic studies Type: Other\nRATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as panitumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving monoclonal antibody therapy together with chemotherapy and radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.\nPURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving panitumumab, combination chemotherapy, and radiation therapy together before surgery works in treating patients with advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal (GE) junction cancer\nI. To determine the pathologic complete response rate of a modified FOLFOX-6 regimen (leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) given with panitumumab at two-week intervals x 4 cycles in combination with external beam radiation therapy for patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the esophagus.\nI. To determine the toxicities and ability to complete the planned treatment. II. To determine the achieved steady-state plasma concentrations of 5-FU (fluorouracil) and correlate these with clinical toxicity.\nIII. To assess the potential importance of polymorphic variations in genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of pertinent genes whose protein products are the targets of the anti-neoplastic drugs used in the clinical protocol on response and toxicity to therapy.\nPatients receive panitumumab intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on day 1. Patients also receive oxaliplatin IV and leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours, and fluorouracil IV continuously over 46 hours on day 1 (FOLFOX chemotherapy). Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Within 24 hours of the start of chemotherapy, patients undergo radiation therapy 5 days a week for 5.5 weeks. Patients then undergo surgery within 6-8 weeks after completion of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Patients with residual disease receive 4 additional courses of FOLFOX chemotherapy.\nAfter completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months.\n- Patients must have resectable adenocarcinoma of the esophagus or GE-junction and are medically fit to undergo surgery; patients must have no evidence of distant metastasis based on imaging studies\n- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of at least 2000 per mcL\n- Platelet count of at least 100,000 per mcL\n- Serum creatinine less than or equal to 2.0 mg/dL\n- Serum magnesium greater than or equal to 1.8 mg/dL\n- Total bilirubin less than or equal to 2.0 mg per dL\n- Measurable disease is not required for this study, since the primary endpoint is complete pathologic response\n- The patient must be aware of the neoplastic nature of his/her disease and willingly provide written, informed consent after being informed of the procedure to be followed, the experimental nature of the therapy, alternatives, potential benefits, side-effects, risks, and discomforts\n- Prior therapy: patients with prior history of mediastinal radiation exposure will be ineligible; patients may not have received prior chemotherapy, or antibody therapy for esophageal or GE-Junction adenocarcinoma\n- History of allergy to platinum compounds or to antiemetics appropriate for administration in conjunction with protocol-directed chemotherapy\n- Patients with a prior history of marked intolerance to 5-fluoropyrimidines (5-FU, floxuridine, capecitabine, 5-fluorocytosine [flucytosine]), since such patients may have deficiency of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase, which places them at risk for severe and life-threatening toxicity with 5-FU\n- Uncontrolled inter-current illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection requiring intravenous antibiotics, ongoing immunosuppressive therapy (except for replacement steroids), active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, that might jeopardize the ability of the patient to receive the chemotherapy program outlined in this protocol with reasonable safety\n- Clinically significant cardiac disease (including symptomatic congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, or serious, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia) within 1 year of study enrollment\n- Pregnant and nursing women, or women planning to become pregnant within 6 months after the end of treatment, are excluded from this study; a negative pregnancy test will be required of women of child-bearing age within 72 hours of study enrollment; subjects (male or female) who are not willing to use highly effective methods of contraception (per institutional standard) during treatment and for 6 months (male or female) after the end of treatment are excluded\n- History of interstitial lung disease e.g. pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis or evidence of interstitial lung disease on baseline chest computed tomography (CT) scan, since the risk of radiation-associated pneumonitis would be increased in such individuals\n- Patients with prior malignancy will be excluded except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, adequately treated noninvasive carcinomas, or other cancers from which the patient has been disease-free for at least 5 years\n- Patients receiving an investigational agent within 30 days before enrollment\nUNMC Eppley Cancer Center at the University of Nebraska Medical Center\nContact: Jean L.

(MET) will pay nearly $500 million in a settlement involving more than 30 states that claimed it didn't provide life insurance benefits to some of its policyholders, the company said Monday.\nThe largest life insurer in the United States said it expects to pay about $188 million of the $478 million this year, and the remainder over the next 17 years.\nState regulators investigated MetLife's use of the Social Security Administration's \"Death Master\" file, a database of people who have died.\nCalifornia Controller John Chiang said a joint investigative hearing held last year revealed MetLife had information about the deaths of some of its life insurance policyholders but failed to pay what was owned.\n\"These settlements make it clear that if the industry isn't willing to make the payments legally required, we will take action, including lawsuits, to compel them to do right by their customers,\" Chiang said.\nMetLife maintains it pays more than 99 percent of life insurance claims and it has been working with regulators to ensure everyone is paid.\nWhy long-term care insurance may become extinct\nFed fines 8 banks for alleged foreclosure abuses\nMetLife swings to loss on derivatives costs\n\"The company has been working with regulators to develop industry best practices and is pleased to announce new processes that will provide an even stronger safety net for the limited number of beneficiaries who do not submit a claim to the company in the normal course of business,\" the company said in a statement.\nMetLife has undertaken a variety of steps to locate policyholders who have lost contact with the company, including implementing a monthly matching process.

        "raw_content": "Top Saudi official asks Congress to withhold judgment on Khashoggi\nPompeo ends Middle East trip in Oman\nA top Saudi official appealed to U.S. lawmakers who are considering sanctions on Saudi individuals connected to the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi to let a judicial process run its course before taking action.\n\"I wish the Congress would take a step back, look at the overall relationship, look at the steps that Saudi Arabia has taken, and let the process play out,\" Saudi Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Adel al-Jubeir told reporters on Friday.\n\"Judge us when it's complete,\" he said.\nAl-Jubeir's visit coincided with a deadline imposed on the White House by Congress to issue a report on whether Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salman, was responsible for Khashoggi's death.\nThe White House blew past the deadline, triggered 120 days ago by a bipartisan group of senators who used the Global Magnisky Human Rights Act to force the president to determine if a foreign person was responsible for a human rights violation. The White House indicated the president could decline to respond to requests from Congress.\nDemocratic Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont said in a statement that the act had not triggered a \"request,\" but rather, a legal mandate.\n\"If the President ignores the clear mandate of the Magnitsky Act in a case involving premeditated murder perpetrated by officials of a foreign government, the White House will share the blame for attempting to cover up the crime and for helping those responsible evade justice,\" Leahy, who was among the group of senators requesting the probe, said.\nKhashoggi was murdered at the Saudi embassy in Istanbul, Turkey on October 2. Saudi Arabia's public prosecutor has indicted 11 Saudi nationals for the murder and requested the death penalty for five of them.\nThe CIA has issued an intelligence assessment indicating the Crown Prince ordered the murder \u2013 something Saudi Arabia has consistently denied.\n\"We know that the Crown Prince did not order this. We know that this was a rogue operation,\" al-Jubeir said on Friday. And as he has done for the past few months, he referred to Khashoggi's killing as a \"mistake.\" \"These things happen. Mistakes happen. We acknowledged it.\"\n\"This was something that was done outside the scope of authority and so we're now investigating, and those responsible will be held accountable,\" al-Jubeir said.\nAl-Jubeir declined to respond to a New York Times report that the Crown Prince told an aide in 2017 he would use \"a bullet\" on Khashoggi, according to communications intercepted by U.S. intelligence agencies.\n\"I can't comment on reports based on anonymous sources,\" al-Jubeir said. \"We have seen in the past that many so-called reports based on intelligence sources have not panned out.\"\nHe also dismissed outside calls to have the Crown Prince step aside.\n\"That's nobody's business except Saudi Arabia. Our leadership is a red line,\" he said. \"I think for anyone to think that they can dictate what we should do or what our leadership should do is preposterous.\"\nAl-Jubeir expressed less concern about the numerous press reports in recent months indicating that the crown prince's personal communications were being routinely intercepted by U.S. and foreign intelligence agencies.\n\"I think that's what intelligence agencies do,\" he said.\nHe added that \"the old saying that 'gentlemen don't read other gentlemen's mail' is a principle that I would subscribe to.\"",

        "title": "\"Watch geeks\" power a booming bull market in preowned pieces - CBS News",
        "raw_content": "\"Watch geeks\" power a booming bull market in preowned pieces\nPaul Newman's record-breaking watch\nNEW YORK - Around two dozen traders sit in an open-layout second floor of a building in suburban Philadelphia. Surrounded by computer monitors, loud conversation and ringing phones, the energy on this trading floor is high and the commodity is blingy.\nAt the headquarters of Govberg, they're not dealing in diamonds or gold but preowned luxury watches, of which the company sells about $200 million worth a year.\nSome 100 miles northeast, 23-year-old Christian Zeron sits in his parents' dining room in suburban New Jersey looking at around 30 preowned vintage watches. In a few days, he'll put them up for sale on his company's website, theoandharris.com, which sells $2 million worth of watches annually.\nGovberg, in the watch business for 35 years, and Theo&Harris, founded only three years ago, are part of the thriving preowned luxury watch business. Along with dozens of other companies, they're the core of an industry that has exploded over the past few years, rivaling the new luxury timepiece business in size.\nNot closely tracked\n\"It's bigger than people think,\" said Reginald Brack, executive director and industry analyst for watches and luxury at NPD Group, which studies $2 trillion in consumer spending across 20 industries.\nBrack said it's difficult to quantify precisely the market for preowned watches because nobody tracks it thoroughly. But some estimates put it at three times the new luxury watch market, itself estimated to be worth up to $10 billion just in the U.S.\n\"I wouldn't disagree with that statement,\" Brack said. \"And it's only getting bigger.\"\nEven though watches have been disappearing from people's wrists with the spread of mobile phones, luxury watches remain a popular status symbol. In fact, sales have slightly crept up in the last two years.\nThe preowned business allows shoppers to get a good deal on modern watches like a Rolex Submariner, while also offering a large selection of vintage pieces like an early 20th-century Cartier Tank.\nDanny Govberg, the founder of Govberg's global watch operation WatchBox, compared the rise of preowned watches to the \"quartz revolution\" nearly five decades ago.\nThe introduction of battery-operated quartz movements in wristwatches took a big bite out of the market share from major automatic or mechanical watch brands such as Rolex, Omega, Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Audemars Piguet. Those brands, which have since recovered, are now the bread and butter of today's preowned watch traders.\n\"Preowned watches are coming out of drawers so fast and furious now that I've never seen anything like it,\" Govberg said in an interview in the company's headquarters in Bala Cynwyd, just outside Philadelphia. \"It's a real disruption coming to our industry.\"\nLuxury brands have taken note. In June, Richemont, the owner of such brands as Cartier and IWC, bought Watchfinder, a British online platform for trading preowned watches.\n\"The preowned market has taken some business from the new market, there's no question,\" said Steven Kaiser, a veteran watch industry executive and founder of Kaiser Time, a New York-based luxury industry consulting firm.\nGovberg entered the preowned watch business in 1983 when he introduced watches to his family's jewelry store on Jewelers' Row on Philadelphia's Sansom Street.\n\"People weren't collecting vintage watches back then,\" he said, recalling that he would travel to Europe to buy used Rolexes and Patek Philippes from watch shows. \"Little shows that you would go to, almost like trading card shows. Like wristwatch swap shows.\"\nAt the turn of the millennium, new platforms such as eBay drove Govberg to adopt his own online strategy. Ultimately, he founded WatchBox, a digital platform and app that includes video reviews and a trading market for valuable timepieces. The company recently launched a second season of \"The Classroom,\" a YouTube series that aims to educate watch enthusiasts about the intricacies of owning a watch that could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.\n\"Social media is where it took off\"\nZeron of Theo&Harris also uses video to offer his thoughts on the industry. He regularly gets hundreds of thousands of views for his four weekly YouTube posts.\n\"Social media is where it took off,\" he said, sitting in his parents' living room with Anna Griffin, his first employee and a fellow student at Seton Hall University in New Jersey. \"We don't have a retail store -- there was no actual foot traffic. It was all social buzz.\"\nThe young entrepreneur, who founded the company with $10,000 in saved-up birthday money when he was a college sophomore, has a larger-than-life persona on social media, with a no-holds-barred approach to roasting iconic brands such as Breitling. Some of Zeron's viewers comment that he needs to lay off the caffeine or sugar.\nThe internet has democratized horological knowledge, much like other niche areas of expertise like aviation.\nA watch enthusiast can spend hours on web forums, debating the differences between the various iterations of a $4,500 Tudor Black Bay. \"I love the domed crystal but I'd be interested to see it 1mm thicker,\" said one member on RolexForums.com of the latest \"Fifty-Eight\" release.\niPhones are easily replaceable\nThe explosive growth of preowned watch sales has deeper roots than social media, however. Owning a mechanical device that could have 300 small pieces inside has an emotional and intellectual appeal.\n\"Nothing that anyone consumes is very interesting anymore,\" said Zeron, sporting a 1980s' 18-karat gold Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date.\nTake the ubiquitous iPhone -- easily replaceable, Zeron noted.\n\"If your vintage Omega breaks, that's it. It's over. You'll never get another one like it,\" he said. \"You're going to remember the drinks and the dates and the arguments you had in it. You are going to be sad that you lost it.\"\nAnother attraction is the sheer volume and variety on offer, with supply constantly flowing out of people's drawers.\n\"If you went into an IWC boutique, they may have 50, 60, 70, 80 watches to choose from,\" Govberg said. \"But in the preowned space of IWC, you may have 900 watches to choose from.\"\nBeauty at a bargain\nBut the bottom line is that a preowned luxury watch in great condition is usually a third of the price of a new one.\n\"For someone that's collecting, for someone that's trying various pieces, it's a natural fit,\" said Paul Bragan, a watch collector and senior partner at market research firm Wakefield Research in Arlington, Virginia.\nBragan spent hours quizzing Zeron online before taking the plunge with his first vintage watch purchase: a 1978 Rolex Datejust, which the Theo&Harris founder personally delivered during a trip to the Washington, D.C., area. It was the start of a friendship -- and many more purchases for Bragan.\n\"There's a trade-in value proposition with preowned watches much like the car industry,\" said Brack of NPD.\nWatch executives often say their business is like the car industry -- only better.\n\"In the car business, you have about 15 years on a car,\" Govberg said. \"Watches are meant to last 100 years.\"",

Miller | Email: michael.miller@cshs.org\nLos Angeles - Aug. 6, 2015 \u2013 Jeanie Buss, president and part owner of the Los Angeles Lakers, has donated $1.5 million to establish the Dr. Jerry H. Buss Surgical Oncology Fellowship. The gift is a tribute to her beloved father and also honors close friend and family physician, Allan W. Silberman, MD, PhD.\nJerry Buss was an investor, philanthropist and owner of professional sports franchises. In 1979, Buss became majority owner of the Los Angeles Lakers. Under his leadership, the team won 10 NBA championships.\nJeanie was inspired to endow the fellowship by her parents' courageous battles with cancer. Both were patients of Silberman. Her mother, JoAnn, is a cancer survivor and remains under Silberman's care. \"Philanthropy is about addressing the needs of a community. We can only be successful when everyone is thriving,\" Buss said.\nCedars-Sinai officials expressed gratitude for the gift that will fuel the medical center's academic mission.\n\"We are enormously grateful that Jeanie Buss has chosen to honor her father's memory with a gift that advances our educational mission in such a meaningful fashion,\" said Shlomo Melmed, MD, senior vice president for academic affairs. \"By training new young surgeons every year, the Buss Fellowship will dramatically accelerate the development and application of new ideas and innovations in the treatment of cancer.\"\nThe fellowship program will provide mentoring in an immersive environment that enables fellows to gain clinical and research skills that will serve as the foundation of their life work. \"It really matched what was important to my father, which was education,\" said Buss. \"He had a PhD in physical chemistry and loved surrounding himself with interesting people who are passionate in their fields. He believed in the research community. The fellowship matches everything that was important to him. It's a legacy that will provide for the future.\"\nThe Cedars-Sinai Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute focuses on combining compassionate, high-quality, patient-centered care with pioneering cancer research.\nSilberman and Armando E. Giuliano, MD, will co-chair the fellowship. The inaugural fellow is oncologist Jenny J. Hong, MD. \"In the last 10 years, there have been so many advances [in cancer research],\" said Buss. \"I think if we get behind great minds, great things will happen. My dad taught me to always value and support outstanding talent.\"",

At a time when funding is diminishing, it is vital that civil society organisations make the most of the people they have \u2013 whether they are paid employees, volunteers or trustees.\n\u201cWe see this rebrand as an opportunity to make it even clearer that investing in people, our sector\u2019s greatest assets, is the single most important thing organisations can do. Over the coming months and years, Skills Effect will be creating new products and solutions that help organisations do just that and offer real value to them.\u201d\nThe first of the solutions produced by Skills Effect is the soon to be fully launched Skills Platform, designed and built by collaborating with organisations and individuals in the sector. The Skills Platform is an interactive online skills marketplace for charities and social enterprises to find the training and tools they need to develop their workforce.\nAs part of the organisational rebrand, a new website for Skills Effect has gone live which will enable the sector\u2019s 804,000 employees and 13 million volunteers to easily access the information and support as and when they need it.",

        "title": "BLUES FANS IN A DEEP FREEZE OVER LOSS OF ALBERT COLLINS - Chicago Tribune",
        "raw_content": "BLUES FANS IN A DEEP FREEZE OVER LOSS OF ALBERT COLLINS\nIt was indeed ironic that the blistering Texas guitar style of Albert Collins came to be identified with Arctic temperatures (his best-known recordings included \"Frosty\" and \"Sno-Cone\"), because a hotter electric blues guitarist has yet to exist.\nIn a year that's already seen more than its share of tragic blues losses, Collins' Nov. 24 death from cancer at age 61 leaves a particularly painful void, one that's unlikely to be filled anytime soon.\n\"Albert was a unique force in the blues. There was not anybody before him that sounded much like him,\" says Alligator Records owner Bruce Iglauer, producer or co-producer of seven Collins albums (including \"Showdown!\" the incendiary 1985 Grammy-winning summit meeting of Collins, Johnny Copeland, and Robert Cray).\n\"Like the other great blues masters,\" says Iglauer, \"he's really irreplaceable.\"\nThe reverb-drenched icy fire that blazed deep within \"the Master of the Telecaster's\" playing first developed during the late 1940s and early '50s in the ghetto gin joints of Houston.\nA cousin named Willow Young taught Collins the unusual minor key tunings that he steadfastly employed, while fellow Lone Star guitar great Clarence \"Gatemouth\" Brown was influential in several ways, notably Collins' use of a capo (or clamp, as Albert referred to it) on his axe.\n\"After I got around Gatemouth, I got hooked on that clamp,\" said Collins in a 1983 interview. \"It gave me a good sound.\n\"Gatemouth, he plays with his fingers and a pick. But I started out playing with just my fingers. I tried to use a pick, but I don't know, it seemed like it was a handicap to me,\" he said. Brown also inspired Collins to play the solid-body Fender Telecaster that came to define his image.\nFrom his 1958 debut recording \"The Freeze\" through his 1962 instrumental hit \"Frosty\" for the Texas-based Hall label and a series of frigidly titled landmark albums for Alligator from 1978 to 1986, Collins parlayed his enduring icebox identity into international stardom.\nCollins happened on his chilly gimmick by pure chance. \"I played in Corpus Christi, Tex., and we was on our way home to Houston,\" he said in a 1978 interview. \"My bass player, his name is Cooks.\n\"He said, 'Man, you better turn the defrost on!' It was during the wintertime, and the windows got all fogged up. I was riding along about two or three miles, and I said, 'Hmmm... Defrost!'\n\"And what I did, I said, 'Well, I'm going to do a song called \"Freeze,\" and I'll do one called \"Defrost.\"\"\nAlthough the majority of Collins' early singles were rocking instrumentals, he gradually grew confident of his vocal abilities over the last 15 years of his career, adding another dimension to Collins' appeal.\nThe guitarist's galvanic onstage trademark was his nightly stroll through the audience and often into the street while playing a scorching marathon version of \"Frosty.\" He borrowed the footloose concept from another master showman, tenor saxist Big Jay McNeely.\n\"He used to have a `creeper' that you work on cars on, a creeper that you lay down on,\" said Collins in 1983. \"They'd have a guy that would push him on that creeper. He'd go all out in the streets blowin' that horn.\n\"So I got me a long cord.\"\nAlbert arrived relatively late in Chicago, but the city nevertheless played a role in his success. His recording career was revitalized by Alligator's 1978 release of \"Ice Pickin',\" a classic album cut at the defunct Curtom Studios on the Far North Side. The dates paired Collins with an all-star local band that was dubbed the Icebreakers when they began touring as a unit.\n\"He had a sound on his guitar that no one else had. He was identified by the sound of his Telecaster,\" says drummer Casey Jones, a charter Icebreaker for six and a half years.\n\"The tone of his guitar cut through to the people in the audience,\" says Jones.\nSince he came through town frequently, it didn't take long for Collins to establish a rabid local following. He repeatedly packed Wise Fools Pub and Biddy Mulligan's during the late '70s and early '80s, eventually becoming too popular to work the club circuit.\nTrailing 100 feet of cord behind him, Collins engaged in outrageous antics that lured the entire crowd into joining him in the cool night air. At Biddy's, Collins once strolled next door to the corner liquor store, reportedly astonishing the counterman by ordering a candy bar without missing a beat.\nAfter too many years of struggling, the guitarist finally gained national celebrity during the last few years.\nHe recorded with David Bowie, cavorted with actor Bruce Willis on a TV ad for wine coolers, filmed a scene at suburban FitzGerald's that was easily the best thing about the 1987 movie \"Adventures in Babysitting,\" and saw his last two albums released on a major label (Charisma's Pointblank subsidiary).\nBut the high-energy intensity that Albert Collins always brought to his performances never faltered. Not only was he the undisputed Master of the Telecaster, he was a consummate master of the blues.\nYou can't get any cooler than that.",

        "raw_content": "Site tracks and charts terrorism information\nHoward Witt, Tribune senior correspondentCHICAGO TRIBUNE\nWhen the designers of a comprehensive new Internet database of international terrorist incidents sat down to draft their plans, they were determined to keep the information as flexible and relevant as possible, to respond to the ever-changing nature of modern terrorism.\nThat meant, for example, creating a \"weapons\" category that includes such traditional means as bombs, guns and knives, and also the more terrifying variants of chemical and biological agents, all of which have been employed by terrorists during the last four decades covered in the database.\nBut it also meant creating another category that remains hidden from public view: the one labeled \"nuclear.\" It's being held in reserve, against the day when some terrorist group might finally lay its hands on a nuclear device or detonate a radioactive \"dirty\" bomb.\n\"To our knowledge, there have been no acts of nuclear terrorism so far,\" said Chip Ellis, the chief designer of the database. \"But if something happened, yes, it's available to be added to the database.\"\nThe database, known as the Terrorism Knowledge Base, is still in its final shakedown stage and has yet to be officially unveiled, but it is already available for public use at www.tkb.org. Created by the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism in Oklahoma City, a research institute founded after the 1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building, the database represents the largest repository of international terrorism information ever made publicly available on the Internet.\nMore than 18,000 terrorist incidents, and nearly 1,000 terrorist groups and their leaders, are described in detail in the database, which stretches back to 1968. Information sources include the FBI, the CIA and the Rand Corp., a non-profit research think tank that for the first time is making its proprietary terrorism incident database--long regarded by government experts and scholars as the world's most extensive--available to the public. The Department of Homeland Security is providing some of the funding to support the project.\nThe database allows users to search by more than a dozen criteria, including terrorist group, region, date, type of incident and number of casualties. It can chart results, display them on a map, compare them and suggest further resources to dig more deeply. Indictments, verdicts and other court documents from 120 FBI terrorism cases are also available.\nThe intended audience ranges from citizens curious about terrorism to journalists, researchers, intelligence and law-enforcement agencies, and even spies in the field working clandestine assignments.\n\"We've heard back on this already,\" Ellis said. \"Having a system that's online and unrestricted and has good information is very useful to people who may not be able to find a secure connection back to a secure database.\"\nThe database contains some unexpected surprises for Americans focused on the threat posed by foreign terrorists. Of the 18 terrorist incidents recorded in the United States last year, for example, all but two were attributed to militant domestic ecological groups, such as the Earth Liberation Front and the Animal Liberation Front. (The other two cases involved letters laced with the poison ricin mailed by an unidentified sender to government addresses in Washington.)\nMoreover, of the 15 listed incidents of biological attacks that have occurred around the world, 12 occurred in the U.S., from October to November 2001--the anthrax attacks that remain unsolved but which authorities suspect were domestic in origin.\nThere are also some quirks and apparent omissions. One of the world's worst incidents of terrorism employing chemical weapons is not included in the database: the 1988 attack against the Kurdish city of Halabja by the regime of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein that killed an estimated 5,000 civilians.\nThe database designers say that's because a government, rather than a terrorist group, committed the crime, which qualified it as political oppression and placed it outside the definition of terrorism used to filter incidents for possible inclusion.\nNor are there any entries for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the suspected Al Qaeda militant and Iraqi insurgency leader who has claimed responsibility for the recent spate of kidnappings and beheadings of civilian contractors.\nEllis said that omission would be corrected in a pending update of the database, which will be refreshed about every month.\n\"It's not a real-time system, and we're not pitching it as that,\" Ellis said. \"The main value of this system is that it contains 36 years of terrorism data. So we see this as not necessarily being the last stop for every question that someone has, but certainly the first.\"\nBut even a terrorism database that is refreshed only a dozen times a year, Ellis said, beats the currency of other available resources, such as the State Department's \"Patterns of Global Terrorism\" report, which is issued annually.\nGiven the ability of the database to compile, sort and analyze past terrorist incidents, is there any danger that terrorists themselves might find it useful? Ellis thinks not.\n\"Terrorists know what terrorists do,\" Ellis said. \"There's nothing in here that educates terrorists on how they can better perpetrate acts. If anything, we think that this system helps put terrorism in perspective, so that people can see how often terrorism fails, how infrequently it leads to measurable political change.\"\nHe added: \"Not to be flippant, but we've always said: Hey, if Osama bin Laden wants to write in and say, `You got this wrong,' we'd happily accept that--as long as he gives us a return address. But to be quite frank, we think it's more important to educate the good guys rather than worrying about the bad guys in this case.\"\nTerrorism by the numbers\nAn online database maintained by the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism at www.tkb.org includes detailed reports on more than 18,000 terrorist incidents dating back more than three decades.\nTerrorist incidents, 1968-present*\n%% Terrorism deaths\nBombing 9,710\nArmed attack 4,031\nAssassination 2,062\nKidnapping 1,461\nW.

        "raw_content": "Older Kevin gets the better of younger Kevin\nNBA Team Report - Minnesota Timberwolves - GETTING INSIDE\nBefore you start comparing Timberwolves forward Kevin Love to another Kevin who once wore the same jersey, do two things:\nAnd remember Love still has a couple Kevin Garnett jerseys stuck in his closet back home in Portland, Ore.\nThe two invite plenty of comparisons for the simplest of reasons:\nBoth play power forward. Both started their NBA careers with the Wolves. Both are named Kevin.\nIt's there that the comparisons should end, as Garnett showed Friday with a defensive performance that limited Love to a 5-for-18 shooting night while he still produced a 22-point, 11-rebound double-double.\n\"It's fair because they're both named Kevin and they both played in Minnesota,\" Boston coach Doc Rivers said. \"They're different players, complete different players. I think people should just celebrate the two. I don't think you need to tear one down to build the other up, or vice versa. Why not just celebrate? We've had two pretty good Kevins. That's a pretty good thing.\"\nGarnett's defensive presence helped send Love's rip-roaring month of March -- he came nine points shy of scoring 500 points in the month -- out like the proverbial lamb.\nIt also served as reminder that a player's worth can't always be measured strictly by stats.\nLove has two reminders of Garnett -- and a career now that includes one MVP award and one NBA title -- stuck in his closet somewhere back home.\n\"I have an All-Star jersey of his and also a Timberwolves' (jersey),\" Love said. \"I was a jersey owner of Garnett back in the day. Him and Tim Duncan and (Chris) Webber. Those were the type of guys I looked up to when I was very young, guys still in this league that I'm fortunate enough now to play against. It's a fun thing. That was my past and now I have to play against him.\"\nNBA Team Report - Minnesota Timberwolves - NOTES, QUOTES\n--Wolves guard J.J. Barea hasn't played since recording his first career triple-double last Friday in Oklahoma City.\nBarea missed his fourth consecutive game on Friday and said he does not expect to accompany the team Saturday on a quick two-game trip to Portland and Sacramento.\nThere's still swelling in his thigh and he can't run or jump on that leg yet. He is targeting Wednesday's home game against Golden State for his return.\n\"It's brutal,\" he said. \"I was feeling great. I was playing good. There's nothing I can do about it. I'm disappointed, but I got to fight through it. During the game, you say, 'Hey, just keep going,' and the after the game you feel it. But I didn't know it'd be this bad.\"\n--Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor paid Kevin Garnett more than $200 million during his 12 seasons in Minnesota.\nNow he has another rising star on his payroll in Kevin Love, who signed a four-year, $61 million contract extension in January.\nLove won the league's Most Improved Player award last season and is in the midst of a season that statistically has surpassed Garnett's offensive output at the same point in their careers.\n\"Kevin (Garnett) did it for many years,\" Taylor told the Star Tribune newspaper. \"Love is doing well now, but he has a long way to go to catch up with the successful career that Garnett had.\"\nQUOTE TO NOTE: \"He had a lot of time (to practice), we had a long lockout. He has always liked shooting threes. He just wasn't very good at it.\" -- Boston coach Doc Rivers, on Kevin Love's improved three-point shooting.\nNBA Team Report - Minnesota Timberwolves - ROSTER REPORT\n--F Kevin Love's 22-point game Friday came within nine points of surpassing Shaquille O'Neal's for the highest single-month point total in the last 15 years. His 222 rebounds already surpassed O'Neal's 218 rebounds set in March 1997. But those 22 points came short of the 499 points O'Neal scored back then.\n--F Anthony Tolliver reached double-digit scoring four times in his first 31 games this season, then did it in five of six games, averaging 12 points on .596 shooting, before scoring eight in 27-plus minutes on Friday.\n--C Nikola Pekovic missed his sixth consecutive games because of what he now says are bone spurs on his right ankle. He said he likely will undergo surgery at the end of the season to remove them and will play as much this season as he can withstand the pain. The team lists him as out \"indefinitely\" but also said he could accompany the team to Portland Friday on a two-game trip.\n--G J.J. Barea missed his fourth consecutive game Friday and said he does not expect to accompany the team on its two-game trip to Portland and Sacramento because of a thigh contusion sustained in Friday's double-overtime loss at Oklahoma City.\n--G Ricky Rubio is out for the season after undergoing surgery to repair torn ACL and LCL ligaments in his left knee on March 21.\n--F Michael Beasley missed his second consecutive game because of a sprained toe that has bothered him since he originally injured March 12 at Phoenix.\n--Point guard Luke Ridnour\n--Shooting guard Martell Webster\n--Small forward Wes Johnson\n--Power forward Derrick Williams\n--Center Kevin Love\n--Shooting guard Wayne Ellington\n--Power forward Anthony Tolliver\n--Center Anthony Randolph\n--Center Brad Miller\n--Point guard Malcolm Lee\n--Center Darko Milicic",

Metra spokesman Tom Miller said police and fire agencies told Metra the pedestrian died.\nAt the time of its Facebook posting, police said the Ardmore crossing was open but the Villa Avenue crossing was blocked and motorists were asked to avoid the area.\nMetra also posted updates on its website and Twitter, first noting that \u201cextensive delays\u201d were anticipated in a 4:40 a.m. tweet. About 7 a.m., the agency said both inbound and outbound service had been restored and inbound trains were operating with only minimal delays.\n\u201cOutbound trains may be operating up to 35 minutes behind schedule,\u201d the agency tweeted.\nCommuters who used the inbound line between 4 a.m. and 7 a.m. could have experienced up to 35-minute delays as well because trains had to significantly reduce speed while traveling past the accident site, the agency wrote.

        "raw_content": "Pompeo: US \u2018Sparing No Effort\u2019 for Return of Pastor Detained in Turkey\nAdelle M. Banks | Religion News Service | Tuesday, September 25, 2018\nWASHINGTON (RNS) \u2014 Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has reiterated Trump administration promises to continue to work for the release of American pastor Andrew Brunson, who has been held in Turkey for almost two years.\n\u201cWe are sparing no effort to return Pastor Brunson home to the United States,\u201d Pompeo said Friday (Sept. 21) at the annual Values Voter Summit attended mostly by Christian conservatives from across the country. \u201cThe work is important. He has been wrongly held and his proper place is to be able to return here to once again practice his faith in our great nation.\u201d\nIn August, the Trump administration sanctioned two high-level officials in Turkey for what it says is their role in the case of Brunson, who faces terrorism-related charges.\nPompeo\u2019s speech, which was met by applause, was part of a focus on international religious liberty on the first day of the three-day summit organized by Family Research Council Action.\nBrunson\u2019s daughter, Jacqueline Furnari, spoke shortly after Pompeo\u2019s remarks during a panel discussion on the issue. She said her family awaits her imprisoned father\u2019s next court date on Oct. 12. He has been charged with \u201cChristianization,\u201d which he denies.\nShe recounted how her father, who has lived in Turkey since 1993 and pastored a small Protestant church there, was called to a police station where he thought he would be reapplying for a residence permit. He was detained, denied a lawyer for two months, and later imprisoned in a cell made for eight that sometimes held 22 people. He has been on house arrest since July.\nShe said typically non-Turks might be deported but not imprisoned the way her father was.\n\u201cThe entire last two years has really shown that this is just baseless charges,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s a sham trial and my dad is being used as a bargaining chip and suffering for Jesus Christ.\u201d\nSince her father\u2019s detention, Furnari said her family has marked her college graduation, her marriage, and the death of one of her grandfathers.\n\u201cThroughout this entire time, my dad has been unable to be with his family,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s what has hurt him the most, is having that time stolen from him \u2014 watching his children grow up, helping my brothers make their decisions as they go on in life. It\u2019s been a painful time and we\u2019re just ready for it all to be over.\u201d\nShe spoke of her father\u2019s reliance on his faith and said it led him to publicly forgive those who testified against him and to say \u201cBlessed am I as I am slandered\u201d during his July 18 court appearance.\n\u201cIt is an incredible testimony and I cannot be more grateful for his example,\u201d she said, drawing applause. \u201cAnd at this point, all that we can do is just continue praying. I ask that all of you pray for my dad\u2019s release and pray for others who are persecuted for their faith.\u201d\nVice President Mike Pence added in a speech on Saturday at the summit that \u201cwe will never stop fighting\u201d until Brunson is freed, drawing applause and cheers. \u201cWe will not relent until Pastor Andrew Brunson is home with his family in the United States of America.\u201d\nIn his remarks, Pompeo drew a standing ovation when he said: \u201cFar and away, the greatest highlight to date of my job as secretary of state was bringing home three Americans from captivity in North Korea.\u201d\nHe read a notecard he received from the former prisoners that quoted Psalm 126 about the laughter of returned captives.\n\u201cOn the day Pastor Brunson returns just like the men I spoke of a bit ago,\u201d Pompeo said, \u201cagain our hearts will be filled with joy.\u201d\nSome former diplomatic officials questioned whether it was appropriate for the secretary of state to appear at a summit that traditionally features Republican luminaries and is viewed as being partisan.\n\u201cThere were some folks who didn\u2019t want me to come here today,\u201d Pompeo said. \u201cBut it seems to me only natural that an American secretary of state would come to talk to you about America\u2019s values and interests. And I know that religious freedom is important to each of you and it\u2019s important for me to be here to talk to you.\u201d\nAt a summit gala on Saturday, participants honored former Republican congressman Frank Wolf with a leadership award. FRC Action President Tony Perkins, a commissioner of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, said Wolf, who 20 years ago sponsored the International Religious Freedom Act, was recognized for his longtime advocacy \u201cfor those that are being persecuted simply because of their faith.\u201d\nPhoto courtesy: RNS/DHA via AP",

        "raw_content": "Subscribe To Project Spark Getting 4-Player Create And Play Feature For Xbox One Updates\nProject Spark Getting 4-Player Create And Play Feature For Xbox One\nTeam Dakota recently updated their official Facebook page to reflect a very important feature coming to Project Spark this fall: a four-player create and play feature for the Xbox One. The post keeps it pretty simple, but we do find out that there will be online and offline local play to support the varying tastes of players.\nA Reddit post spotted the recent update over on the official Facebook page for Microsoft's upcoming game creation software utility, Project Spark. What does the post say? Well, you can check it out below, as it relates to the multiplayer functionality of Project Spark on the Xbox One, as well as what gamers can expect when the game release this fall...\n\u201cProject Spark 4-person multiplayer Create and Play will be coming to Xbox One this fall. While we don't have a specific timeframe yet for PC multiplayer, it's still on it's way, possible towards the end of the year.\u201d\nThe PC multiplayer not having a time-frame could be a bit of a bummer, as the platform has really excelled lately \u2013 thanks mostly to indie support via Steam \u2013 with having local multiplayer options and fun modes for online games that didn't seem likely. But so long as the feature is on the table, it's good news for gamers that it's at least coming at some point in time.\nAs for the Xbox One, this is a much-needed feature that really did need to happen. The system, at the moment, lacks a lot of diverse multiplayer games and it's probably one of the main reasons why it's hard for Microsoft to capture the appeal of gamers not looking for dude-bro shooters or the standard-fare action titles.\nAccording to some users, the multiplayer in Project Spark will support both online and local multiplayer. There will be four-player online modes that allows all four players to create, modify and play levels together \u2013 this would be perfect for gamers who need help quickly generating levels and can designate tasks to other players to finish or work on other parts of the project.\nIn fact, each player can take on important design roles, such as having one person just animate or design enemies and characters, while another player implements weapons or items, and another player fleshes out the level design. It could be like a bigger, more expansive version of LittleBigPlanet.\nYou can get a brief glimpse of how the multiplayer will look in the screenshot below.\nIt's also been discussed that local multiplayer may also be present for Xbox One owners, too. It may not feature four-player simultaneous play, but the word is that two-players will be able to team up locally to play various Project Spark titles.\nThe software creation tool is slowly building its momentum (and a rather impressive library of playable titles) as it heads toward the inevitable October 7th release. So far, I've had some fun with Project Spark and it shows a lot of potential. With a larger variety of tools, accessories and thematic entities for players to work with, the title could easily become a huge boon for growing a dedicated community on the Xbox One.\nYou can learn more about the game by paying a visit to the official website.",

        "raw_content": "Subscribe To Rumors Are Swirling That Donald Trump Jr. And Aubrey O'Day Had An Affair Updates\nRumors Are Swirling That Donald Trump Jr. And Aubrey O'Day Had An Affair\nThe rumor mill is spinning this morning. In the midst of getting divorced from his wife, Vanessa Trump, new revelations have been made about Donald Trump Jr.'s possible infidelities. According to recent reports, Trump Jr. allegedly had an affair with The Celebrity Apprentice contestant Aubrey O'Day in 2011.\nPage Six is covering the gossip. Since filing for divorce from Donald Trump Jr. last week after 13 years together, more information has been leaked about his failing marriage. As it is being reported today, Trump Jr. allegedly began cheating on Vanessa Trump with Aubrey O'Day when his wife was pregnant with their third child, Tristan. Sources close to Vanessa say he even reportedly intended to leave Vanessa for Aubrey, which \"devastated\" his wife at the time. According to the unnamed source, it was Don Jr. who \"pursued\" Aubrey into the relationship. He was the one who apparently chased after the singer/TV personality.\nThe affair was reported to be \"the downfall\" of their relationship, according to one of the sources. Or maybe not? According to the insider, the marriage between Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump was in trouble before Aubrey O'Day entered the picture via The Celebrity Apprentice, on which Don Jr. was an advisor. The report claims that Don Jr.'s relationship allegedly was \"already in the process of dissolving\" and that his marriage was in serious jeopardy before O'Day was involved. So maybe it was already on the rocks whenever Aubrey became involved with their lives? Nevertheless, the couple stayed together for seven more years, perhaps in an attempt to keep their family together.\nWhen Donald Trump first heard about the affair between Donald Trump Jr. and Aubrey O'Day, the future president reportedly stepped in and told his son to cut it out. Another source claims it was the Trump family who allegedly \"pressured\" Don Jr. into staying married to his wife. In any case, the relationship that ensued between Don Jr. and Aubrey O'Day was seemingly one built around love, not money or fame, as the couple would meet up in various cities during their rendezvous together, and would reportedly pen love notes to one another throughout the heat of their relationship. O'Day never sought out money from the famous family, and she was ultimately never paid by them either. And O'Day hasn't necessarily kept completely quiet about it.\nOn Election Night 2016, Aubrey O'Day sent a since-deleted tweet, which can now be placed to the affair she reportedly had with Donald Trump Jr.\nMy story I didn't tell is worth millions now.\nIf that doesn't give you any clues, Aubrey O'Day even wrote a song seemingly about her relationship with Donald Trump Jr. The reality TV personality released an EP in 2013 called Between Two Evils, which featured a break-up track called \"DJT\" at the very top. It features lyrics saying \"I hate me for loving you, hate you for letting our love die.\" The opening single also begins with professing the following verses, seemingly directed towards Don Jr.\nYou can say it was all a fucking fairytale/Or you can say it was real/But I need to know and you know/ Whatever the truth is defines the reality of you and I forever/And I need to be able to define that before I can walk away\nVanessa Trump filed for divorce from Donald Trump Jr. on Thursday. The couple share five children together.",

The 15th of March gives you a chance to remind her how dear she is to you, especially if you have newborns and this is her first ever Mothering Sunday.\nAnother mum to take into consideration is your mother-in-law; now is the chance to score some brownie points! Whilst she maybe hasn't had such a huge role in your life as your biological mother, she is part of your family and Mothering Sunday gives you the opportunity to demonstrate your appreciation towards her.\nGrandmothers should also be honoured and celebrated as part of Mother's Day. Even if your own mum or dad is organising a gift for your grandmother, it's still nice to make a small gesture at the same time with a card, Mother's Day flowers or chocolates.\nSo remember, Sunday March the 15th isn't just about your own mum - it's a celebration of motherhood and all mums everywhere!

In 2012 the UK experienced the driest spring in over a century, following two dry winters. However the current scientific understanding of the complex drivers and impacts of droughts is inadequate.\nThe project \u201cManaging the Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties of drought and water Scarcity\u201d (MaRIUS) will introduce a risk-based approach to drought and water scarcity in order to inform management decisions and prepare households.\nPhoto of Lake Hume in drought by Tim J Keegan\nThe project is designed to capture the complexity of the water scarcity by using expertise across the social and natural sciences and with key stakeholder involvement.\nMaRIUS will use scenario modelling and case studies across a number of scales, from household to national, in order to understand both the drought impacts at a local level right as well as the institutional decision making by governments and water companies. The modelling will enable testing of drought scenarios and a thorough representation of their impacts on water quality, agriculture, biodiversity and economic losses.\nIn addition to the modelling component, social science and stakeholder engagement are a key part of the project and will help us to understand the role of institutions, regulation and the markets in drought management.\nWeather@home Contribution\nThe MaRIUS project will make use of the large ensemble of regional climate model runs available from our weather@home experiments. The focus of this work is to develop event sets of droughts and heat waves within the framework of probabilistic event attribution. This will involve creating drought event sets for both the 20th century and future conditions (2030s, 2080s), using an improved weather@home modelling set-up to allow for important feedbacks specifically relevant to droughts. This will in particular involve the inclusion of an improved land-surface scheme into both the global and regional model, and a higher-resolution regional model at 25km.\nProject Researcher:\nDr Beno\u00eet Guillod",

        "raw_content": "Misfired e-mail was never viewed by Gmail user\nRocky Mountain Bank says Google confirmed an e-mail with customer data that was mistakenly sent to a random Gmail address was never opened, has been destroyed.\nA sensitive e-mail mistakenly sent by a bank to a Gmail address that prompted a court to order Google to deactivate the account was not viewed by the recipient and has been deleted, the bank said on Tuesday.\nThe e-mail, sent by an employee of Jackson, Wyo.-based Rocky Mountain Bank on August 12, contained names, addresses, Social Security numbers, and loan information of more than 1,300 bank customers.\nThe bank sent another e-mail asking that the data be destroyed and went to court to get Google to intervene on its behalf. Last week, a judge in U.S. District Court in San Jose, Calif., ordered Google to deactivate the Gmail account and Google complied. Google and the bank quickly resolved the matter and the court granted their motion to dismiss the case and allowed Google to reactivate the Gmail account.\n\"Rocky Mountain Bank, working with Google (through court order), confirmed on Thursday of last week that the e-mail containing client information was never opened and has now been permanently destroyed by Google's system,\" Tina Martinez, general counsel for Rocky Mountain Capital, wrote in an e-mail response to questions.\n\"As a result, no customer data of any sort has been viewed or used by any inappropriate user during this data lapse,\" Martinez wrote. \"Rocky Mountain Bank acted to protect its customer's confidential information. That objective was accomplished.

For instance, should the person who registered the e-mail address lose access to the account or have items deleted without his or her permission, particularly through no fault of their own?\nAnd what recourse would the bank have if the data had been sent via regular mail to the wrong address? The U.S. Postal Office certainly doesn't have the ability to see the envelope sitting on the recipient's desk and vaporize it.\nUpdate 4:35 p.m. PDT:The bank did not take any action against the worker who sent the e-mail, the bank's lawyer said.\nDiscuss: Misfired e-mail was never viewed by Gmail user",

        "title": "Top 10 predictions for the mobile market in 2014 - CNET",
        "raw_content": "Top 10 predictions for the mobile market in 2014\nThe drama will continue in the mobile market as fortunes of mobile operators and wireless handset makers are won and lost in the upcoming year. Take a look at CNET's top predictions for the 2014.\nT-Mobile CEO John Legere. T-Mobile\nThis past year was a busy one for the mobile market. And next year will likely be just as intense.\nWireless operators were busy wheeling and dealing to get more wireless spectrum. And they were busy upgrading their networks to 4G LTE service, truly making 2013 the breakout year for faster wireless service.\nThere was also a lot of deal activity among handset makers, as smaller players struggled to find ways to compete against the two dominant players, Apple and Samsung. What's expected to happen in 2014? I took out my crystal ball and put together this list of my top 10 predictions based on recent trends and conversations with sources. Take a look and let me know what you think.\nWireless bargain hunters rejoice, carriers are finally listening\nIf you're in the market for a better value for your wireless plan, 2014 should be a good year for you. AT&T recently announced a new Mobile Share plan that offers an incentive to customers who use an older phone or bring their own unlocked device to the network. It's a plan similar to one that T-Mobile started offering in March.\nUnder the AT&T plan, consumers can save $15 a month on every smartphone connected to their plan if they don't take a device subsidy and sign a two-year contract. This plan and T-Mobile's plan, which also offers a discount on monthly service if you already own your phone, is a positive step for consumers and shows that some major operators will be aggressively fighting for consumers looking for a better value on their wireless plans.\nAT&T's CEO Randall Stephenson said the company will be addressing the value segment of the market more. There are two reasons for this. One is that more people have smartphones, and the other reason is that 4G LTE networks offer more capacity at a lower cost. This makes it not only necessary but feasible for AT&T and other carriers to go after a market focused more on value.\nThe 30 worst phone names of all time\nDual-SIM and eSIM on Apple's 2018 iPhones: Everything you need to know\nWhile I don't expect carriers like AT&T to slash pricing across the board, I do think there will be more pricing options available, which will result in better value for some wireless customers.\nIt may take Verizon Wireless a bit longer to respond to the value play, given that the company has a long history of charging a premium for its service due to its reputation for having the most reliable network in the market. But recent capacity constraints in key markets have marred Verizon's unblemished reputation. And if the carrier continues to struggle under the weight of increased traffic demand, it could be drawn into the value game as well.\nMy advice for bargain hunters in 2014 is to stay tuned for more service plan shake-ups. And keep your calculators close at hand to see which ones really offer the best value.\nWireless operators lobby hard in Washington\nNew Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler has taken office and one of his first orders of business was to delay the upcoming incentive spectrum auction.\nTom Wheeler, the new chairman of the FCC. Saul Loeb/AFP/Getty Images\nThe auction, which will let TV broadcasters give up spectrum for a cut of the auction proceeds, is one of the most complicated the FCC has ever designed. Wheeler said that it was critical for the government to get this right, so he pushed back the auction a year to give the agency more time to prepare. But even with the auction still more than a year away, wireless operators are already ramping up their lobbying efforts.\nWhile the much needed low-band spectrum from the broadcast incentive auction is still more than a year off, the FCC is preparing two other wireless auctions for 2014. The first is the H-block auction, which has only one significant bidder, satellite TV provider Dish Network. The next auction of the so-called AWS-3 band of spectrum is expected to get a lot more attention. This spectrum auction is set for September 2014. It's expected to create a lot of buzz, so stay tuned.\nCarrier consolidation continues\nThe past couple of years have already been filled with a lot of M&A activity among wireless carriers. The trend is expected to continue in 2014.\nIn 2013, AT&T bought beleaguered prepaid provider Leap Wireless. T-Mobile bought MetroPCS. Japan's Softbank completed its purchase of Sprint. And Sprint bought out its remaining stake in Clearwire. With so much activity in 2013, it seems like there couldn't possibly be anymore deals to be made.\nBut think again. There are already rumblings that Sprint is putting together a deal to buy T-Mobile, which isn't a huge surprise given that T-Mobile's parent Deutsche Telekom has not been shy about its desire to exit the US market. But it's unclear at this point whether federal regulators would approve such a deal. It could be hard given that both the Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission have been pleased with T-Mobile's recovery in 2013 following its failed merger with AT&T in 2011.\nBut other deals may also be in the works. Satellite TV provider Dish Network is chomping at the bit to buy...somebody. Last year, the company attempted and failed to buy Sprint and Clearwire. Dish's founder, Charlie Ergen, has also been gunning for wireless assets from the bankrupt carrier LightSquared. And Dish is expected to be the sole nationwide bidder on wireless spectrum in the H block auction in January. Dish has been stockpiling wireless spectrum for the past couple of years, and 2014 could be the year the company makes a move either by building a network on its own or through an acquisition of an established player. In either case, Dish is a player to watch.\nT-Mobile shakes up the industry yet again with more of its \"Uncarrier\" strategy\nT-Mobile is readying the next phase of its \"Uncarrier\" strategy. The company has already eliminated contracts, removed device subsidies, introduced an early upgrade program, given away 200MB of tablet data for free, and eliminated roaming charges for international travelers in more than 100 countries. It's been quite a year for T-Mobile to say the least.\nScreenshot by Roger Cheng/CNET\nBut the company's executives say they aren't done yet. Recently, CEO John Legere took to Twitter to promote an upcoming announcement in early 2014 that will \"eliminate another customer pain point.\"\nImproved 3G and 4G coverage? The biggest pain point for T-Mobile customers is its lack of coverage outside of big cities, but improving that doesn't sound very \"Uncarrier\" to me.\nBundle fees and taxes into price? My guess is that T-Mobile may improve again on pricing, possibly bundling monthly rates with taxes and other service fees to show one price. Prepaid players have been doing this for a long time. But such simply pricing still eludes the big wireless providers.\nNo unlocked phones? While T-Mobile and the other major carriers have agreed to unlock devices after they've been paid off, maybe T-Mobile will skip the whole locked phone thing to begin with. And when customers buy devices outright from the carrier, maybe they will be unlocked out of the box.\nUnlimited number of lines to family plans? Maybe T-Mobile will remove the limit of how many phones can be added to a family plan.\nOf course all of these are just guesses at this point. T-Mobile's CEO was vague in his tweet. But one thing is clear. The company isn't done shaking up things in the wireless market, so stay tuned.\nSprint emerges stronger from its \"rebuilding year\"\nMuch like a sports team that is forced to rebuild its team with younger, more nimble players after a season of losses due to player injuries and retirements, Sprint is rebuilding its business. And the company's CEO Dan Hesse thinks that even though 2013 has been an ugly year in terms of performance for the carrier, 2014 will be be much brighter as Sprint gets back on its feet.\nSpeaking at an investor conference in New York recently, Hesse admitted that the company's upgrade to its new Network Vision and Spark enhanced LTE network has been painful. But he said the pain of today will be worth it tomorrow.\nHesse likened the transition to the story of the \"Three Little Pigs.\" Sprint is building a house of brick while its competitors are using straw and stick. And even though Sprint's network is taking a longer time to build, it will last longer. And he said that customers will soon see the fruits of this labor.\nThat said, Sprint customers are still likely to experience some hiccups in 2014 as Sprint expands its Network Vision network that replaces all of its old infrastructure with new gear and gets its LTE network up and running. Hesse admitted that the carrier will likely continue to see customer defections as these networks get completed. But by mid-2014 he said things should be turning around for Sprint.\nThe good news is that the 4G LTE network has just been expanded to 70 more cities, including Green Bay, Wis.; Orlando, Fla.; San Diego; and St. Louis. The new LTE markets bring Sprint's total to 300 across the United States.\nBy the middle of 2014, Sprint 4G LTE service is expected to be available to approximately 250 million Americans, and Sprint expects 100 million Americans will have Sprint Spark or a service that uses the 2.5GHz wireless spectrum from its acquisition of Clearwire by the end of 2014.\nThe Z30's keyboard is both comfortable and fast. Sarah Tew/CNET\nBlackBerry: Things will get worse before they get better\nBlackBerry has had a rough year. The company had a disastrous launch of its new BlackBerry 10 operating system with the debut handset, the Z10, being a major flop. As a result, the company has been shedding customers like someone with a bad case of dandruff.\nDesperate for a change, the company has booted out its old management and replaced it with a turn-around expert, interim CEO John Chen. On the company's recent quarterly conference call, Chen admitted that things looked grim for the company, especially on the device front. But he said BlackBerry is finally positioned to fight back.\nThe big change for BlackBerry is its shift away from the consumer handset business in North America and a greater focus on its enterprise and messaging software business for the enterprise. The company will also be targeting developing markets with its mobile handsets. And it's created a partnership with device manufacturer Foxconn that will allow the company to cut costs on device manufacturing and minimize inventory risks.\nSo what's next for BlackBerry? In March or April, look for the first device from the fruits of the Foxconn partnership. It will be sold in Indonesia.\nBlackBerry may also announce plans to bring its security and productivity enterprise apps to Google Android and Apple iOS devices. The company just recently began offering its BlackBerry Messaging app for Android and iOS. And CEO John Chen said he's very interested in working with Apple and Google on bringing more of BlackBerry's functionality to those platforms. But don't expect an announcement in the first half of the year. Chen said he might need one or two quarters to work out the details and best course of action.\nOf course, the big question in 2014 for BlackBerry is whether or not the company will even be around for 2015. Given the amount of cash the company has on hand and the way it's cutting costs and managing the business, it will likely be around for awhile. But 2014 will be make or break in terms of figuring out if Chen's new strategy can save the company.\nNokia's Windows Phone-based Lumia 520. Sarah Tew/CNET\nMicrosoft kills Lumia brand\nOne of the biggest moves in terms of the wireless device market in 2013 was Microsoft's $7.2 billion bid to acquire Nokia's devices and service businesses. The tie-up between the two companies came as little surprise given the tight relationship the companies have had since 2011, when Nokia decided to exclusively use the Windows Phone operating system for its smartphones.\nSince then, Nokia has been the premiere Windows Phone hardware maker pushing the operating system, which has grown in acceptance, but still lags behind Apple iOS and Google Android. As a result, any success Microsoft has experienced with Windows Phone is intrinsically tied to Nokia's success with the Lumia brand of smartphones.\nBut as the Nokia sale to Microsoft is finalized in early 2014 and as Microsoft begins integrating the products into the mothership, it's unclear what will happen to the Lumia brand. While it's obvious that Microsoft bought Nokia for its hardware, Microsoft has begun building its own mobile hardware. The company has been selling its Surface tablet, based on its Windows RT software. And while it hasn't announced a Surface smartphone, one has been rumored to be in the works.\nMeanwhile, Nokia has also developed a Lumia tablet using Windows 8.1 RT, called the Lumia 2520. It was released this fall on the heels of Microsoft's newest Surface 2, which uses the exact same operating system. Talk about awkward.\nIt seems pretty clear from a consumer standpoint that keeping both brands could get very confusing. So it's likely that Microsoft will be forced to choose.\nRumors have already bubbled up suggesting that the 8-inch mini tablet from Nokia called the Lumia 2020 has been canned in lieu of a similar 8-inch mini Surface tablet that Microsoft plans to announce early in 2014. If these rumors prove true, it could mean lights out for the Lumia brand.\nIn any case, a rethinking of the Lumia and Surface brands are likely to be in the works as Microsoft and Nokia finalize their merger. What this means for the products themselves and for consumers using them is not yet known. An optimistic prediction is that regardless of what they call the new hardware, Microsoft-developed and -built products will hopefully incorporate Nokia designs and focus on mobility.\nApple vs. Samsung: The saga continues\nThe long-drawn out battle between Apple and Samsung over patent infringement will continue in 2014 and beyond. The two companies have been embroiled in a bitter legal battle since April 2011 when Apple filed a lawsuit accusing Samsung of copying the look and feel of its products. Samsung countersued two months later over patent infringement.\nThe initial trial concluded in August 2012 and a nine-person jury sided with Apple on a majority of its patent infringement claims against Samsung Electronics. At that time, the jury awarded Apple $1.05 billion in damages; Samsung wasn't awarded anything. In March, a judge ordered a new trial to recalculate some of the damages, striking a big hunk of money from the original judgment. Another trial was held in California in November. And a second jury awarded Apple an additional $290 million in damages from Samsung, bringing the total amount of damages Samsung will pay Apple to $930 million.\nBut the retrial didn't mark the end of the Apple-Samsung battle. CNET's Shara Tibken who has been following the legal battle says there are likely to be more appeals, and another patent trial looking at newer devices will start in March. Devices involved in the next trial include Samsung's Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S3, and Note 2. And Samsung has named Apple's iPhone 5 in a counterclaim. This next trial could actually have a greater effect on consumers given the fact that these devices are a bit newer than the ones named in the previous trial.\nAmanda Kooser/CNET\nUnlocked phones hit the mainstream\nThis could finally be the year that US consumers get access to a wider variety of unlocked phones. For years wireless operators have controlled which devices can be used on their networks by forcing manufacturers to put software locks on them. And though there have been a few mobile devices sold without such locks, such as the Google Nexus phones and the new Motorola G just announced this fall, most devices even if they are paid for in full, have these locks. But there could be a greater variety of unlocked devices at different price-points hitting the US market in 2014 thanks to two major developments in 2013.\nThe first is that carriers such as AT&T and T-Mobile are now offering consumers an incentive to bring unlocked devices to their networks, thus creating a real market for unlocked devices.\nNew service plans that encourage customers to take their cell phones with them when they switch carriers comes as the major mobile phone companies in the US reach an agreement with the Federal Communications Commission to make it easier for consumers to unlock their phones once they are paid off.\nThe agreement announced earlier this month is a \"voluntary\" commitment from the major carriers, including AT&T, Verizon Wireless, Sprint and T-Mobile, that they will unlock customers' cell phones once their contracts have been paid off. The wireless carriers have also committed to notifying customers when their devices are eligible to be unlocked, or they will automatically unlock those devices remotely for free.\nThis is a big deal for US consumers who will finally be able to take their cell phones with them to compatible networks when they've paid off their devices or concluded their service contracts.\nLG re-emerges as a hot Android device maker, while HTC's star fades\nLG's presence in the US smartphone market has waned in recent years. But it looks like the company started to get its mojo back in 2013 with the introduction of some new high-end devices.\nThe LG G2 boasts a quad-core 2.3GHz processor under the hood. CBS Interactive\nThe company made two hot new Nexus phones for Google. And it's rumored to be working on the next product in the Google Nexus lineup. Despite the fact that its flagship G2 Android smartphone hasn't sold particularly well, it has been well-received among device reviewers. Some people have argued it's the best smartphone the company has released in a long time. With the wind at its back going into 2014, this could be the year, the company breaks in as a credible alternative to Apple and Samsung, especially in the US market.\nWhile LG's star may be rising, HTC's seems to be fading. It's likely to be another tough year for the Taiwanese mobile phone maker. Despite releasing its critically acclaimed smartphone, the HTC One, this year, the company also reported its first ever financial loss. And it's not likely the company's financials will rebound anytime soon.\nAs CNET's Roger Cheng pointed out in a story in October following the release of its third-quarter losses, the results reflect ongoing issues the company faces. The biggest problem is its small size. It doesn't have the marketing muscle to compete against Apple and Samsung, even when it arguably has better products.\n\"HTC is clearly getting squeezed, and there doesn't seem to be a way out,\" Roger wrote earlier this year.\nIndeed, it seems unlikely that HTC will be able to dig itself out of the hole it fell into in 2013. The company has talked about getting more aggressive with marketing, but the company, which is one of the only major manufacturers in the US focusing exclusively on smartphones, is easily outflanked by bigger competitors. Even LG, which has also struggled in the US market, has a better chance against the two giant device makers in 2014 largely because it has multiple business lines and deeper pockets than HTC.\nUnfortunately for HTC, 2014 is sink or swim time.\nMobile TVs Tablets Phones\nDiscuss: Top 10 predictions for the mobile market in 2014",

        "raw_content": "Message From Sheriff Pastor\nFrom Sheriff Paul Pastor\nThese are the comments which I made to our Annual Department Awards Ceremony on March 29, 2018:\n\"We are here today to recognize and honor people who have especially distinguished themselves over the past year. People who serve in an agency full of people who regularly distinguish themselves. People in this Department, those who carry badges and those who do not, show a level of dedication which is recognized and respected throughout the state and the region. It is a level of dedication which tremendously benefits the residents of Pierce County.\nDoes this mean we are a perfect agency? No it does not. But I have worked for five different agencies. And I have worked among dozens of others throughout the United States. I have never worked with better, stronger, more dedicated people.\nToday we acknowledge and honor the strength of character and resolution of action which makes the Pierce County Sheriff\u2019s Department what it is.\nWe are here today to recognize 48 people. Among them is Deputy Daniel McCartney who chose to intervene to stop perpetrators in a home invasion robbery. As well as those who assisted him after he had been critically wounded and a chaplain who guided the McCartney family through the terrible loss of a husband and father.\nAll of the 48 people receiving awards advanced our Department Mission which is \u201cTo protect life and property, to uphold rights and to build stronger, more civil and livable communities partnering with the people we serve.\u201d And, they moved us closer to our ultimate mission which is Doing Justice and Undoing Injustice.\nThey displayed our Core Values of Integrity, Responsibility, Respect, Courage and Compassion. Values. Now there is a term which seems almost old fashioned. In today\u2019s civic and business and political environment, we might ask \u201cWhere do we find real values in America?\u201d\nIf you want to see real values in action, then look at the people we acknowledge today. Because values of Integrity and Responsibility and Respect and Courage and Compassion are alive and well in the way they serve this community.\nWe know that this is a difficult time to carry-out our mission. This is a time when we face regular challenges to what we do and how we do it. This is a time when our demand is growing locally. We do not live in a sleepy little rural county. We serve in a large, complex urbanized county with more than its share of crime.\nWe have seen a spike in serious crime over the last 12 weeks. While I do not expect this spike to continue, our large volume of work is likely to grow as the population of the County grows.\nThrough it all, some people tell us that we have a difficult, and thankless and heart-wrenching job. To be sure, we have all encountered hard and heart-wrenching incidents. We all have stories. But do not ever view us as victims. We do what we do because we have volunteered for and accepted a special level of responsibility.\nWe have all asked for the privilege of standing up for people in the communities we serve. We have asked for the difficult and complex and absolutely necessary work of making a moral difference in the community.\nTrue, this involves exposing ourselves to risk. It involves sorting out the right thing to do often under chaotic, and, too often, under very dangerous circumstances. Is it a hard job? Oh yes it is. It is at once difficult and can be heart-wrenching. But first and foremost it is a deeply honorable privilege.\nToday, you will hear about people who rise above challenges. People who, often, don\u2019t have time or resources or sufficient staffing but they stand up and make a difference anyway. They work long hours, they stretch themselves to the limit. They face all of this in order to avert crisis, to provide help and to save lives.\nToday you will hear about people who have stepped up on behalf of others. People who, in the face of difficulty, do tremendous things. People who show tremendous dedication and heart on a regular basis; on the street and in the jail and at all points in between. Today you will hear about honor, and hope and how our people translate values into action.\u201d\nAbout Sheriff Pastor\nReceive Sheriff Pastor's Newsletter\nWatch the Sheriff's Department\nSheriff Pastor's Command Staff",

        "raw_content": "Brett Molina, Common Sense Media\nIntense, violent shooter with zombies requires teamwork.\nThis game glorifies the violent and vicious slaying of zombies. Players are meant to gawk at and appreciate the extreme levels of gore and the wide variety of creative ways in which zombies can be slain.\nPlayers determine their characters' actions. Consequently, the survivors are only as good or bad as players make them. Those who act on their own eventually hurt their team's chances and may cost them the game. Players must learn to work together and protect each other to survive. When one player is injured or falling off a ledge, another can choose to heal them with a health pack or pull them up. Or not.\nAlthough the game doesn't include any kind of tutorial to walk players through the controls, they are pretty easy to pick up. There's one trigger to attack and another to push away zombies. Since there's no aim function, players simply point and shoot (or melee attack).\nPlayers use a wide array of firearms and explosives, including handguns, shotguns, assault rifles, hunting rifles, grenade launchers, molotov cocktails and pipe bombs to kill zombies. They can also grab melee weapons such as axes, baseball bats, guitars, police batons, chainsaws and crowbars to pummel zombies. Zombies' head get knocked off, or arms and legs may be severed, spewing tons of blood.\nThe worst words used were \"s--t\" and \"asshole.\"\nPlayers can take pain pills or a shot of adrenaline to gain a health boost. None of this is depicted in a glorious light. Survivors use them simply to stay alive long enough to escape.\nParents need to know that Left 4 Dead 2 is an incredibly gory, violent shooter meant strictly for adults. Players must survive a zombie apocalypse by using a myriad of weapons, including handguns, shotguns, grenade launchers, axes, chainsaws, baseball bats and many others. Attacks look and sound vicious. When a zombie is hit with a bat, for example, you can hear a dull thud. Zombies' heads, arms, and legs will often fly off, and spew lots of blood that blankets the environments. However, it does promote teamwork more than most games. Players have to work together, healing, helping, and protecting one another, in order to survive. That means, though, that open voice chat is nearly mandatory, which opens the floodgates for the sharing of inappropriate words, ideas, and information.\nAdult Written bymath professor June 18, 2011\nPositive message within: this game DEMANDS teamwork, helping others and communication.\nFor adults and teenagers that are comfortable with gore, this game does provide much more than a visceral experience of running though a zombie apocalypse: a p... Continue reading\nok for kids duh\nthis game is ok for 9 year olds there zomies there mite be some blood and gore but its realistic\nTHIS IS THE BEST ZOMBIE GAME EVER. The good role models are the character's teamwork. This is by far the best one.\nTeen, 14 years old Written byReviewerkid13 July 5, 2010\nNo one under 13 should be using online play as others can freely speak. Also, if you don't want to the gore, the settings could be easily changed or you ca... Continue reading\nLEFT 4 DEAD 2 is a cooperative first-person shooter in which four people must survive a zombie apocalypse infesting the southern United States. Each campaign is a stand-alone adventure following a foursome of survivors as they attempt to escape. The game is a team effort, requiring players to work together and watch out for each other in order to survive. Players can tackle the campaigns alone, but the game is best played with others online. The game also features a Versus mode, where players can assume the role of zombies and attempt to eliminate the survivors. The game also includes a Survival mode, where players must outlast zombies for an extended time period, as well as a variation on the Versus option called Scavenge.\nThe follow-up to last year's Left 4 Dead adds plenty more options in terms of weapons and enemy types. Players not only battle generic zombie hordes, but zombies with special powers. The Spitter, for example, spews acid. The addition of new weapons -- and especially the debut of melee items -- adds a greater level of variety to the action. The locales also feel fresh, taking players through various environments including an abandoned carnival and a shopping mall. While there are only five campaigns to choose from, there are plenty of modes available to enjoy, including Scavenge Mode, during which survivors must keep energy generators running while zombies attempt sabotage. Left 4 Dead 2 is also great at leaving the player feeling overwhelmed by throwing dozens of zombies in their direction. It's this kind of tension and thrill that makes it one of the year's best games for mature players.\nOnline interaction: Players can freely speak with each other in open chat, which means there is potential for inappropriate words, ideas, and information to be shared. Common Sense Media does not recommend open online play for children under age 12.\nFamilies can talk about whether a video game can be scary without being gory? Can you think of any games that fit this description? If a game has an option to lower the amount of gore seen on screen, do you ever use it? Why or why not?\nFamilies can also discuss how the game places strong emphasis on using teamwork to survive. What do you think of this design? Would you rather be able to go off on your own? Does it feel strange to have to work so closely with strangers? Or do you prefer to play games like this only with close friends?\nESRB rating: M for Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Language,\nSimplified, no-fail Rock Band with a whimsical story.\nFun movie-based action game has constant but mild violence.\nIngenious remake is a classic for both old, new fans.",

        "raw_content": "Seattle home prices improve, but not buyer market\nA recent report from the Northwest Multiple Listing Service was generally positive on the outlook for buyers in the region\u2019s housing market, but Windermere Real Estate Chief Economist Matthew Gardner also cautions that we\u2019re not quite in a buyer\u2019s paradise yet.\n\u201cAre we going to see house prices continue to drop?\u201d Gardner asked KIRO Radio\u2019s Dave Ross on Seattle\u2019s Morning News. \u201cI would argue that no, that\u2019s not the case. Why do I say that? Quite simply, I think we\u2019ve reached an affordability ceiling.\u201d\nThat ceiling saw the median closing price for houses in King County settle at $639,000 by the end of 2018, down from the year\u2019s high of $726,275 in May. That marked a 2 percent raise year-over-year, the lowest King County has seen in \u201cseveral years\u201d according to Gardner.\nThis seems to build on what the NMLS report said as well \u2014 in it, Windermere President OB Jacobi noted that the end of 2018 brought us \u201ccloser to a more balanced market.\u201d\nClick here for more information: http://mynorthwest.com/1236765/seattle-housing-prices-buyers-market-windermere/",

        "raw_content": "Haifa House by Pitsou Kedem Architects\nPitsou Kedem Architects have completed a house in Haifa, Israel.\nA private residence built in the center of a historic avenue and at the very heart of Haifa\u2019s French Carmel neighborhood.\nThe avenue is studded with a number of residences designed in the Bauhaus style. The Bauhaus style gained its hold in Israel in the wake of international styling trends and is a ornament free design style, both simple and down to earth. The style celebrated the aesthetics of the machine and was characterized by uniformity of color and by unassuming and simple finishes and facades. The style faithfully represented the spirit of the age and the location. This project, designed decades later, creates a line that connects contemporary styling with the spirit of that bygone era.\nThe project emphasizes and sharpens the differences between apparently similar design styles of contemporary minimalism influenced by Japan and the austere moderation of the modernism that characterized the end of the 1950?s. Both of these paradigms translate into a way of life, to the Israeli environment and climate. The sophistication and the minimalism that existed at the heyday of the Bauhaus period have been translated, in this latest reincarnation, into a spacial purity and prestigious restraint.\nIn his design, the architect has expressed his own, localized interpretation for free planning in which there is a spacial continuity achieved through light, appearance and movement and the placement of secondary spaces around one, large and open central space. The architect has succeeded in creating the experience of continuous, intimate and defined spaces with different levels of symbiotic, mutual interaction with the central space and yet without detracting from the overall understanding of the structure. Despite the intensification of the residences central space which finds expression in a double sized open space reaching the entire height of the building with one completely transparent fa\u00e7ade facing the direction of the courtyard, through the use of controlled and restrained formality and the use of materials with no external facings, the designer has succeeded in showing his belief that it is possible to create a residential space of quality and timelessness.\nIn an attempt to connect with the historic avenue and the houses that have inhabited it since the 1950?s, the architect has paid great attention to homes front facing fa\u00e7ade. The front of the building is almost anonymous, for the most part, a closed element, free of unnecessary ornamentation and one that combines a monochromatic color scheme based on the grays and whites that characterized that same era. Only the floating upper roof hints at a harmony with contemporary design. There is a sense of acceptance of the avenues importance and an attempt to assimilate into its, fragile and gentle structure and in no way try to force contemporary architecture on the surrounding environment. Only the floating mass of the roof hints that, despite the desire to be part of the avenues context and the spirit of that historical period, it is clear to the observer that here we have a bold attempt to create an architectural language that leaves a clear signature and the fingerprint of the designer.\nThe home was, as said, designed around a wide, high public space that constitutes the connecting point and provides a view of all of the homes different wings as well as to the central courtyard and the pool. In order to further strengthen the impact of the central space it has been coated with exposed concrete panels and a large library on the wall as a central motif. A large, ribbon window allows light to enter deep into the space, creating movement and dynamism on the central wall. The architect has covered all of the structures spaces with an expansive roof which appears to be suspended, weightless in the air and floating effortlessly with no apparent means of support. The roof frames and consolidates the various parts of the structure with the apparent dissociation between the roof and the building creating an impressive, formal dialogue.\nMovement within the house is accompanied by different views of the outside environment; exposed and open areas and other areas that are framed and focused on a specific view that was designed specifically for that area. The underlying concept of the homes design is one of quiet and formal restraint; the home is a place of tranquility and calm where the minimalistic details, the clean language and the meaning, separate the residents from the world outside. The architecture and the interior design combine a climatic relationship with light and air, an expression of the homes functionality and the uniform design lines both internal and external.\nThe materials and the colors used for both the interior and the exterior range from white to gray combined with wooden strips. The simple, clean shapes and the light play a central role in the interior design. Shade and light create ever changing performances of shapes and movement, \u201cplaying\u201d on the walls, the ceilings and the floors of the building throughout the day. The combination of the geometric light shows against the horizontal and vertical surfaces, made from many different materials, creates a unique atmosphere in the internal spaces and the house\u2019s exterior that make a powerful statement of uniformity and calmness. During the day, natural light entering the residence and its movement creates absorbing light shows. At night, when darkness falls, artificial light, and especially the light seeping out from the pool, create within the structures spaces a totally different atmosphere, one that is almost mystical and magical.\nThe design of the courtyard is characterized by the same restraint of form with the choice of trees and their placement also communicates with the avenue and the surrounding environment. And so, despite the fact that different worlds and different eras exist in the space between the historical Bauhaus of the avenue and that of this modern and minimalistic home, there still exists a relationship between them, a feeling that one is not strange to the other.\nVisit the website of Pitsou Kedem Architects \u2013 here.\nThe Carmel View Residence By Neuman Hayner Architects\nHouse K by Auerbach Halevy Architects\nHouse in Ramat Hasharon by Levy:Chamizer Architects",

        "raw_content": "PG&E Topples Western States Petroleum Association in California Lobbying\nThe Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E) spent almost $10 million on lobbying California officials in 2018, surpassing even the Western States Petroleum Association in lobbying spending.\nOf the total money spent last year, the company dumped $9,580,357 into general lobbying, including total payments to in-house staff lobbyists and lobbying firms, along with paying for meals and other items for legislators.\nPG&E also spent $349,522 on lobbying the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), the regulatory agency that regulates privately owned public utilities in the state, including electric power, telecommunications, natural gas and water companies.\nThe company spent the most money in the seventh quarter of the 2017-2018 session, dumping $6,111,332 into general lobbying and $168,668 into lobbying the CPUC. This is one of the largest amounts of money spent on lobbying by any organization in one quarter.\nThe utility filed its most recent lobbying expenses with the California Secretary of state on January 31, the final day for filing its disclosures.\nHere is the total spent lobbying in 2018 by PG&E: http://cal-access.sos.ca.gov/Lobbying/Employers/Detail.aspx?id=1146888&view=activity&session=2017\nOf this total money, the company spent $6,369,631 in 2018 on \u201cpayments for grassroots and other advocacy\u201d related to state legislative proposals improving wildlife preparedness and response, according to the filing.\nDuring a court hearing on January 31, a PG&E lawyer said the company is facing 750 lawsuits, many of them over the Camp and other fires that devastated the state over the past couple of years.\nThe nation\u2019s largest utility, the Pacific Gas and Electric Company filed for reorganization in federal bankruptcy court under Chapter 11 on January 29\u2014 one day after the CPUC voted to extend a $6 billion credit line to the corporation that consumer advocates say made it easier for for PG&E to file bankruptcy.\nTwo days before the filing by PG&E, Consumer Watchdog called for the ouster of the California Public Utilities Commission over its decision to extend the credit line to Pacific Gas & Electric in what the group called \u201can unneeded emergency process that allowed no time for scrutiny.\u201d\n\u201cThe unprecedented vote makes it easier for PG&E to go into bankruptcy and avoid accountability to wildfire victims, ratepayers and taxpayers,\u201d according to the group.\nConsumer Watchdog President Jamie Court said financing was not approved in PG&E\u2019s first bankruptcy in 2001 \u201cand the lights stayed on.\u201d The nonprofit group said the decision will saddle nearly half the state\u2019s ratepayers with steep rate hikes and/or long-term debt.\n\u201cThe Public Utilities Commission just gave a convicted felon six-times over a $6 billion credit line backed by ratepayers going into bankruptcy without any strings or even a credit review,\u201d said Court. \u201cGovernor Newsom should seek the resignation of President Picker and the members of the PUC who betrayed ratepayers and wildfire victims, as well as public officials seeking to stop PG&E from going into bankruptcy and sticking the public with billions in costs that should be shareholder obligations.\u201d\nThe second-highest spender for the year was the Western States Petroleum Association (WSPA) \u2014 the organization that has topped lobbying spending in California most years.\nWSPA spent $7,874, 807 to influence California government officials in 2018. The powerful association spent all of its money in the 2017-2018 session on general lobbying, with nothing spent on the CPUC. Of the four quarters, WSPA spent its most money lobbying, $2,649,018, in the eighth quarter, from October 1 to December 31, 2018.\nThe Western States Petroleum is led by President Catherine Reheis-Boyd, the former chair of the controversial Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) initiative Blue Ribbon Task Force to create so-called \u201cmarine protected areas\u201d in Southern California.\nThe total lobbying figures for WSPA in 2018 are below: cal-access.sos.ca.gov/\u2026\nWSPA represents a who\u2019s who of oil companies, including oil giants BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Exxon, Shell, Valero and many others. The companies that WSPA represents account for the bulk of petroleum exploration, production, refining, transportation and marketing in Arizona, California, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington, according to the WSPA website, www.wspa.org.\nChevron and its subsidiaries took third place in the \u201clobbying competition\u201d in 2018, spending around $4 million on lobbying.\nOver the past decade, WSPA and Big Oil have topped the list of spenders on lobbying the Legislature in California. During the 2015-2016 Legislative Session, the oil industry spent a historic $36.1 million to lobby lawmakers and officials in California.\nWSPA was the top overall oil industry spender during the 2015-16 session, spending $18.7 million. Chevron, the second overall oil industry spender, spent $7 million in the 2015-16 session.\nIn 2017, Big Oil also dominated three out of the four top spots of expenditures by all lobbying organizations. Chevron placed first with $8.2 million and the Western States Petroleum Association (WSPA) placed second with $6.2 million. The Tesoro Refining and Marketing Company finished fourth with $3.2 million.\nThat\u2019s a total of $17.6 million dumped into lobbying by the three top oil industry lobbying organizations alone. That figure exceeds the $14,577,314 expended by all 16 oil lobby organizations in 2016.\nIn the first six months of 2017, the oil industry spent more on lobbying in California, $16,360,618, than was spent by the industry in all of 2016, $16.0 million.\nWSPA and Big Oil wield their power in 6 major ways: through (1) lobbying; (2) campaign spending; (3) serving on and putting shills on regulatory panels; (4) creating Astroturf groups: (5) working in collaboration with media; and (6) contributing to non profit organizations.\nBecause of this money and the power that Big Oil wields in California, the Jerry Brown administration, in stark contrast with its \u201cgreen\u201d facade, issued over 21,000 new oil and gas drilling permits in California. That include more than 200 permits for offshore wells in state waters \u2014 wells within 3 miles of the California coast.\nIn addition, the state of California under Brown \u2014 and now under Gavin Newson \u2013 controls four times as many offshore oil wells in state waters as Trump\u2019s federal government controls in California. You can view the map showing the location of wells here: http://brownvtrumpoilmap.org.\nThis money and power also allowed the oil industry to write the cap-and-trade bill, AB 398, that Governor Brown signed in September 2017, as well as to twice defeat a bill to protect a South Coast marine protected area from offshore drilling.\nIronically, the same WSPA president that led the charge to defeat a bill to protect the Vandenberg State Marine Reserve from offshore oil drilling CHAIRED the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) Initiative Blue Ribbon Task Force to create \u201cmarine protected areas\u201d on the South Coast.\nMore articles by:Dan Bacher\nDan Bacher is an environmental journalist in Sacramento.

        "title": "Good bacteria good to Ganeden as licensing revenues mount",
        "raw_content": "Good bacteria good to Ganeden as licensing revenues mount\n<i>Mayfield Heights tech firm opens new lab to\naccommodate \"lots and lots' of products ready for market\nLike a hearty strain of bacteria in a huge Petri dish, Ganeden Biotech Inc.'s revenue rapidly is replicating. Every year since 2008, the Mayfield Heights company has roughly doubled the amount of revenue it brings in by licensing out \u201cgood bacteria\u201d used as an additive in food and other products. Ganeden is taking steps to help that growth continue: Each month through the end of this coming summer, the company's customers are scheduled to launch two to three products that use its patented probiotic bacteria. By the end of 2013, Ganeden's bacteria should be in more than 100 products, up from about 60 today, said Michael Bush, vice president of business development for Ganeden. The increase in licensing business is one reason Ganeden last month opened a microbiology laboratory at its headquarters on Landerbrook Drive, Mr. Bush said. The scientist who ran the company's former lab in Miami since has moved to Northeast Ohio. \u201cWe have lots and lots and lots of products ready to hit the market,\u201d he said. Today, most of Ganeden's revenue comes from food products that contain GanedenBC30, a bacteria strain designed to boost the immune system and to promote proper digestion by fighting unfriendly bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. The strain forms a spore that protects the bacteria until it arrives in the small intestine, where it begins replicating. Ganeden doesn't limit itself to food products. It just sold to a livestock feed company the exclusive right to sell its Ganpro brand of bacteria in feed for cattle, swine and poultry, and two cosmetics companies have agreed to license a new anti-aging product called Bonicel. However, food is driving most of the new growth. \u201cWe're probably talking to literally every major food and beverage company in the United States,\u201d president and CEO Andrew Lefkowitz said. Granted, the company's revenue took a huge hit in mid-2011, when it sold its two biggest BC30 product lines to Schiff Nutrition International Inc. of Salt Lake City for $40 million in cash. Those products, dietary supplements marketed under the Sustenex and Digestive Advantage brands, accounted for about two-thirds of the company's revenue, which Ganeden does not disclose. However, Ganeden is moving quickly to replace that revenue with what company officials say is a more profitable licensing business. Selling off its dietary supplement brands relieved Ganeden of a big advertising burden, Mr. Lefkowitz said. The company was spending 20% to 30% of its supplement sales on advertising for those brands, which it was selling and marketing on its own, he said. Ganeden now spends less than 5% of its revenue on advertising, he added. \u201cThe value of a licensing dollar is superior to the value of a retail dollar,\u201d Mr. Lefkowitz said. The new strategy does require more product testing, which has made it all the more important for Ganeden executives to have convenient access to the microbiology lab in Northeast Ohio. Mr. Bush noted that he flew to Miami 16 times in 2011. \u201cDeveloping a food is far more complicated than putting some bacteria into a capsule,\u201d he said. Ganeden, which employs 17 people, has no immediate plans to add staff to run the new microbiology lab, which contains a lot of automated equipment.\nHealthy preoccupation\nWorldwide, people buy about $32 billion of probiotic products every year, said Mr. Bush, who also is vice president of the International Probiotics Association of Zurich, Switzerland. Today, yogurt products account for a large majority of those sales. In the United States, the popularity of probiotics has grown substantially over the last two years, according to a report from Spins LLC, a Schaumburg, Ill., company that tracks sales and trends in the natural products business. U.S. sales of probiotic products totaled $2.25 billion in the 12-month period that ended July 7, 2012, up 33% from $1.69 billion during the like period a year earlier and up 79% from $1.26 billion the year before that. The popularity of supplements is helping drive some of that growth, but overall awareness about probiotics \u2014 in food and other products \u2014 is increasing, said Kerry Watson, a Spins natural products specialist who wrote the report. Plus, people generally are becoming more interested in being healthy these days, Ms. Watson said. \u201cThere's a mass movement of people ... taking their health into their own hands,\u201d she said.",

Castle (NYSE: CAS), a $1.3 billion global distributor of specialty metal and plastic products and supply chain services located in Franklin Park, Ill. \"Scott's financial and leadership background in multiple publically traded companies, his strategic capabilities and ability to develop and manage a strong finance organization make him the ideal fit for us as the next chief financial officer at (Associated Materials),\" said Brian Strauss, the company\u2019s president and CEO, in a news release. Strauss was named CEO in May. The company did not immediately respond to a voicemail seeking comment about Stephens\u2019 appointment and his predecessor as CFO. Prior to joining A.M. Castle, Stephens was CFO for Lawson Products, an international distributor and marketer of maintenance, repair and operations systems, services and products. He has a bachelor's degree in accounting from Ohio State University and an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. \"I am excited to join the strong leadership team at Associated Materials,\" Stephens said in the release. \"The dual distribution platform and vertical integration strategy coupled with our strong customer focus provides a solid platform for continuing success.\" Associated Materials\u2019 brands include Alpine, Alside, Gentek, Preservation, Revere and Ultraguard.

But in an April 15 filing with the SEC, Associated Materials said, \u201cA determination has been made not to proceed with the initial public offering.\u201d Associated Materials was founded in 1947.

It will be a busy closed season for all the staff to make sure we get the players in who can make a difference for us.\n\u201cWhat we have to do is act more quickly. If we know that a player is interested in coming here, we need to get them up here, show them around and talk to them about what we expect and what they expect.\nHe added: \u201cWe will look to profile our targets a lot more, to make sure we get the right characters in, so we want to know about their lives, do they have a family, what they eat and what they get up to in their personal life.

It is important to note that your choice of home inspection services will greatly affect your decision to buy the home or otherwise.This is because the home inspection service is responsible for advising you on the details about the house. A home buyer normally relies on the inspection report so as to make the decision to buy the house or not. To be on the safe side, it is always prudent to hire qualified and skilled home inspection services. The following are tips for getting the best home inspection services.\nBefore hiring any firm, find out how long the home inspection takes and what it involves. From those services, make sure that the service provider you choose does exactly that.This includes the house electrical system, plumbing system, and heating and air conditioning systems, among others. These are the systems that make a house functional and comfortable. In addition to this, you should ask the service provider how much they will charge you for the services. This can be used to compare prices with other service providers to avoid being charged exorbitantly.\nThe home inspection service company you engage should be credible and committed to their work.They should have a good reputation within their community and from their previous customers. If you know of a reliable realtor, they can help you identify top rated home inspection services since they deal with them a lot.However, you still need to do your due diligence when choosing the service provider.You should also read their online reviews. By doing this, you can then make an informed decision on which one to choose.\nFurther, you should make sure that the home inspectors are skilled and qualified in that field.It is worthwhile to have a look at their documents and accreditation.Subsequently, it is good to know how long the service provider has been practicing. It is wise to hire a company with several years\u2019 experience.If it has been operating for long, then they have wide experience. The company should also be insured and with a valid license.\nTo avoid conflict of interest, you should hire a company that only does home inspection. Today, there are many companies that provide several types of services. Such companies are not likely to deliver high-quality services.Since they are not specialized, they lack professionalism.However, a specialized company develops expertise due to the same consistent services that they offer.",

The new CEO of the ride-hailing company said that it plans to change the company's culture. What's more, he plans to take it public in 18-36 months.\nUber plans to go public soon. Source: Fire Newsfeed\nKhosrowshahi led the American travel-booking website, Expedia Inc, for more than a decade. He made these remarks when he formally introduced himself to Uber\u2019s workforce during a private meeting among staff members at the company's headquarters in San Francisco.\nHis many plans for the company include the rebuilding of Uber's culture, as well as growing its market share. He also sees the potential of the company to conduct an IPO at least 18 months from now. All these were from the reports given by the attendees of the meeting. The news regarding the potential IPO isn't surprising as it's common for companies that are backed by venture capitalists to go public after a certain period of time.\nAccording to the company's communications team, Khosrowshahi told Uber employees that the company needs to change.\n\"What may have gotten us to where we are today won't be the reason that will propel us to the next level,\" said the new CEO.\nCEO Khosrowshahi says the company\u2019s culture needs a change.

Khosrowshahi's appointment is also seen as a critical step towards filling the gaping hole in the company's top management. As of the moment, the company still has no head of engineering, general counsel, or chief financial officer.\nIn his first ever meeting with the employees of Uber, Khosrowshahi said that he is on the lookout for new talent, especially a CFO (Chief Financial Officer). He's also in the search for a competent chairman to assist him in running the board.\nThe new CEO of Uber is also looking for a new CFO to take the company to the next level. Source: Free Malaysia Today\nKalanick attended the staff meeting on Wednesday and he welcomed his replacement. According to him, casting a vote to have a new CEO was a huge moment for him. He also said he could not be any happier to pass on the torch to a very inspiring leader. He even complimented the new CEO's deep passion and desire for team building.\nThe board of the company appointed Khosrowshahi on Sunday. The two other finalists, the chairman of GE and the chief of HP, failed to win the board over. In an interview on Tuesday, the newly appointed CEO suggested that he will prioritize the diversity issues of Uber. He's optimistic about the prospects of Uber despite the challenges that it currently faces.\n\"Uber is among the few companies that are redefining the transportation industry on a global scale,\" he said. \"Being a part of Uber's story is very interesting and a real privilege.\"",

He was one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in 1848 and was later to be the main inspiration for second generation of artists and writers influenced by the movement. He was also a major precursor of the Aesthetic movement. Rossetti's art was characterised by its sensuality and its medieval revivalism. His early poetry was influenced by Keats. His later poetry was characterised by the complex interlinking of thought and feeling, especially in his sonnet sequence The House of Life. Rossetti's personal life was closely linked to his work, especially his relationships with his models and muses Elizabeth Siddal and Jane Morris.\nThe Annunciation II - Dante Gabriel Rossetti Oil Painting\nSelf portrait IV - Dante Gabriel Rossetti Oil Painting\nSelf-portrait III - Dante Gabriel Rossetti Oil Painting\nSelf Portrait II - Dante Gabriel Rossetti Oil Painting\nAggie II - Oil Painting Reproduction On Canvas\nRegina Cordium III - Oil Painting Reproduction On Canvas\nRegina Cordium II - Oil Painting Reproduction On Canvas",

        "raw_content": "The wind blew sand in my eye and I got a DUI\nQ: Leaving Stagecoach the wind blew sand in my eye. I swerved and the police stopped me and arrested me for a DUI? Is that legal? It doesn't seem fair! Steve R, Los Angeles\nA: The police need only have probable cause or a reasonable cause to approach you. If you commit a traffic infraction like weaving, swerving, speeding or an unsafe lane change then they can investigate. During the investigation if they smell alcohol they can investigate further to determine if you are Driving Under the Influence. If they, for instance, see what looks like a dead body in the back seat they can investigate for a possible murder. If they see a bag of drugs on the back seat they likewise can investigate to determine if they are illegal etc. In other words it does not make any difference what they find/see that is illegal, as long as the police had a legal right to stop/approach you to observe it.\nOnce they have the right to investigate then if a breath test shows the amount of alcohol is enough for a DUI arrest (i.e. .08) they then can take you to the Indio Jail. Before doing so the cops will normally ask you to perform Field Sobriety Tests such as; walk the line, finger to nose, following the officer's finger or pen, balance tests etc. Ironically ALL THESE TESTS ARE OPTIONAL. You can politely say you are willing to take any test that is mandatory and if it is optional then you OPT not to take the test.\nThen they will ask you to take a breath test at the scene and if you are .08 or higher they can arrest you for DUI. The Preliminary Alcohol Screening Test (PAS) breath test is also OPTIONAL. You would then request a Blood or Breath test at the station...this is mandatory and a failure to comply is a REFUSAL and you will lose your license for 1 year.\nIn Riverside County the Police/DA will cite and file on .07's. This is arguably not enough to be under the influence on its own. Of course you can be under the combined influence of alcohol and a DRUG...even a prescriptive drug. Many RX's have a warning on the label not to operate heavy machinery when taking the drug and not to mix with alcohol. This is not a reference to a tractor but rather a car.\nThe bottom line is that it does not make any difference why the officer stops you as long as the initial stop is legal. It is your poor luck that you got wind/dirt in your eye which caused you to swerve. This brought you to the attention of the police and they can then legally investigate.\nDON'T DRINK AND DRIVE, CALL A TAXI...IT IS A LOT CHEAPER THAN HIRING ME!\nDale Gribow has been \"Rated\" TOP LAWYER by Palm Springs Life Magazine from 2011-2019 and has a Superb AVVO Legal Rating by his fellow attorneys.

        "raw_content": "Obama thanks Jenkins and Rawlings, reiterates need to stick to Ebola protocols\nUpdate 5:30 pm from Tom Benning:\nThe conference call lasted around an hour, with about half that time devoted to questions from the state and local officials on the line. Rawlings described the call as \u201cpretty pro-forma,\u201d as myriad federal officials laid out their latest plans.\nThe mayor said Obama was \u201cvery sober, but very confident\" that the US medical infrastructure will stop the spread.\nRawlings added that Obama was \u201cvery generous in his compliments of the Dallas area, the city and county.\u201d\nThe mayor was given the opportunity to ask the first question in the Q-and-A session.\nRawlings, in an interview, said he and other Dallas-area officials have been grappling with the experience of harmonizing the protocols and missions of various agencies. He said there\u2019s been a learning period in sorting out who exactly is accountable for what.\n\u201cWe have a much better understanding of it a week into it than we did at the very beginning,\u201d he said.\nSo Rawlings asked what should be done to standardize those protocols going forward.\nFrieden, the CDC director, said Dallas\u2019 emergency operation center was a great example, according to the mayor. And while there weren\u2019t marching orders for Dallas officials to start compiling a list, Rawlings said \u201ceverybody realized that we have to transfer that learning from Dallas to other places.\u201d\n\u201cWe need to capture those processes and disciplines,\u201d the mayor said.\nWASHINGTON -- President Obama spoke with state and local officials across the country today by conference call to update them on the Ebola control effort.\n\"As we saw in Dallas, we don\u2019t have a lot of margin for error. If we don\u2019t follow protocols and procedures that are put in place, then we\u2019re putting folks in our communities at risk,\" he said. He was referring to the fact that Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan, who died this morning at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, was initially sent away with antibiotics after showing up with a fever and telling medical personnel that he'd arrived from Liberia a few days earlier.\n\"We have to follow the procedures and protocols that have been established based on the science,\" Obama said.\nSome 1,200 state and local officials participated in the call. The president thanked Dallas leaders for their handling of the Ebola situation.\n\"I want to thank Mayor [Mike] Rawlings and County Judge Clay Jenkins in Dallas for their cooperation with our team and their leadership on the ground. We\u2019re going to make sure that lessons learned in Dallas and clear procedures and protocols for health and safety officials are conveyed to all of you,\" he said on the call, according to a transcript released by the White House. (Obama made no mention of Gov. Rick Perry.)\nHealth and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell and Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, then briefed the state and local officials about preparations to handle a wider outbreak. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson also was on the call, along with senior White House adviser Valerie Jarrett and Lisa Monaco, the president's top homeland security and counterterrorism adviser.\nObama called the new screening measures at the five U.S. airports that handle the vast majority of travelers from West Africa \"really just belt-and-suspenders -- it\u2019s an added layer of protection on top of the procedures already in place at several airports\" to identify anyone who might be contagious with Ebola.\n\"For the governors and the mayors and the county officials on the line,\" Obama said, \"I\u2019ve instructed my teams to do whatever federal assistance they can to make sure you\u2019re ready to respond should someone be diagnosed with Ebola in your state. We\u2019re going to have to be partners in this fight.\"",

        "raw_content": "Boxer vehicle secures win in UK\nJust weeks after Australia chose the Boxer vehicle for LAND 400 Phase 2, the British Army has taken a step towards exploring a deal for a fleet of new armoured vehicles after announcing it has re-joined the Boxer program.\nThe UK has re-joined the Boxer program and will explore options to equip the Army with the 8x8 troop carriers to modernise its vehicle fleet and meet the Army\u2019s Mechanised Infantry Vehicle (MIV) requirement.\nThe UK played a major role in the original design, development and testing of the Boxer but left the program in 2003, citing changing requirements as the reason behind the move and claiming that vehicle weight growth made the Boxer too heavy for transport by Royal Air Force C-130s.\nUnder the deal announced last week, the UK would reassume the rights it had as a project partner if a deal was to go through \u2013 allowing the option for the vehicle to be built and exported from the UK. The deal could see the Boxer fully assembled in the UK with at least 60 per cent of the manufacturing with British industry, sustaining and developing UK industrial capabilities, facilities and skills.\nArtec, the consortium that manufactures the Boxer vehicle, has already made commitments to British industry by signing partnership agreements with BAE Systems, Pearson Engineering and Thales UK, in anticipation of a deal being struck.\nIt is expected that British companies would compete for the manufacture and supply of many of the vehicle sub-systems, as well as for a full production and assembly line in the UK. Estimates suggest Artec\u2019s planned investment in the UK could secure or create at least 1,000 jobs, based across the country including locations such as Glasgow, Newcastle, Sheffield, Stockport, Telford and Wales.\nThe UK government is hoping the deal could secure a broader industrial UK partnership, with Rolls Royce already powering Boxers with engines and Parker-Hannifin, William Cook Engineering and other British companies also supplying sub-systems for the vehicle.\nThe UK's Ministry of Defence (MOD) is now taking forward negotiations with the Organisation for Joint Armament Cooperation (OCCAR) and Artec. In a statement from the MOD, it said it is now looking forward to the assessment phase, concluding in 2019. This will consider the comparable benefits of manufacturing locations and different supply chains for Boxer, as well as value-for-money. Any deal will be subject to commercial negotiation and assessment in 2019 and the aim is to have the first vehicles in service with the Army in 2023.\nOCCAR is a European intergovernmental organisation that facilitates and manages collaborative armament programs through their lifecycle between the UK and European allies. The organisation manages the Boxer program and, as an OCCAR member state, the UK has the necessary intellectual property rights to the Boxer and greater control over ensuring Britain benefits from supply chain work, a statement from the MOD said.\nThe MOD conducted a comprehensive market analysis of Mechanised Infantry Vehicles in service, entering service and in development. The analysis was guided by the British Army\u2019s requirements and how best to deliver them. The Boxer delivered on protected mobility, capacity, flexibility, utility and agility.\nAs part of the proposed deal, the UK is also expected to see substantial inward investment from Rheinmetall, one of Artec\u2019s parent companies, which signalled its intention to launch a production and integration centre for armoured vehicles in the UK as part of the program.\nAlong with Australia, Slovenia also selected the vehicle last month and Lithuania became the program's first export customer in 2016, with first deliveries scheduled for this year.",

        "raw_content": "Mark Kan didn't take the conventional academic route into sales: Instead, the manager, who has Korean and Romanian roots, followed a path that took him all over the world, from Kazakhstan to Leverkusen.\nAlong the way, he acquired two degrees, an MBA and a commercial qualification. Now working in international sales at DENSO, this multi-talented manager is the Area Sales Manager for Central and Eastern Europe, as well as parts of Asia. In this interview, he discusses some of the challenges of his role.\nWhy did you choose to build your career in sales?\nKan: I was excited by the challenge: I'm responsible for more than 30 countries in Eastern Europe and Asia, and get the chance to apply my experiences of interacting with people from other cultures. As an Area Sales Manager at DENSO, I can work independently and stand on my own two feet to develop new markets.\nYou worked in other industries before joining DENSO. Was your transition to this company a smooth one?\nKan: No. At the very beginning, I knew little about the pipeline and sealing technology industry. As someone with no technical experience, the first thing I had to do was familiarise myself with the huge range of products that we offer. But this wasn't a task I had to tackle alone \u2013 my technical colleagues explained everything to me, helping me to become an expert myself quickly. This level of understanding is incredibly important for my role because at some large companies, in Russia for example, many of the employees have a scientific background. Meetings there can be a lot more detailed in terms of technical content.\nYou've been instrumental in making DENSO products significantly more successful in Eastern Europe. How did you do it?\nKan: This achievement was no mean feat. On top of devising a clear sales strategy, you have to take the mentality of each country you're doing business with into account. For example, I published a number of specialist articles in Russian, which was an important step in raising DENSO's profile in the old Soviet countries. I prepare for each meeting separately: Product demonstrations during visits to construction sites require a completely different approach to consultations with customers or interactions at trade fairs.\nPeople in Eastern Europe and Asia are very different, just like everywhere else in the world: For example, in Korea I pass people my business card with two hands, with the details facing my contact person so it is immediately legible without having to be turned over. This is a sign of respect for the other person. Touching on a taboo subject immediately comes across as negative and can even bring a conversation to an end. My international background is very useful in this regard.\nWhat motivates you in your day-to-day work?\nKan: My working environment and positive feedback from my customers. Independence and freedom to do things your way are encouraged at our company, and I have the freedom to work like an entrepreneur running my own company. So I'm really pleased about our growth in Eastern Europe: This means that I can start to break into new markets with new products.\nKan: Everything we do is based on DENSO's strength in innovation. We never stand still and instead, we are constantly researching and developing new products. This means that there's always something new for me to latch on to in sales \u2013 for example, the summer residence of the president of Turkmenistan in the Caspian Sea is now standing on pillars protected by MarineProtect\u00ae from DENSO. Five years ago, that wouldn't have been achievable.\nWhat do you envisage for your role over the coming years?\nKan: I hope that I can continue to make progress and build on the positive developments we've achieved in Eastern Europe. This is an area that still presents plenty of challenges: the main issue at the moment being the volatile exchange rate between the Russian Ruble and the Euro. But I'm very optimistic about the future \u2013 our products are strong and speak for themselves.",

        "raw_content": "UTAH GROWTH IS IMMINENT, KEYCORP. SAYS\n\"Utah is on the verge of a great economic expansion and I am looking forward to KeyCorp. being a part of it,\" that company's top official said Wednesday.\nAn expansion into the West by KeyCorp., including the recent purchase of Commercial Security Bank in Utah, has produced better than expected results, said Victor J. Riley Jr., president and chief executive officer of KeyCorp.Riley and Peter A. Farrell, executive vice president of Key Trust Co. and KeyCorp.'s chief economist, were in Salt Lake City to speak on the national and international economy during an invitation-only breakfast and to get better acquainted with business leaders.\nRelating concerns of foreigners as noted in his world travels,\nRiley said people are concerned about who will be the next American president. \"The United States has been the world policeman and the economic engine that drives the free world, so they are concerned about the next president,\" he said.\nRiley said trade barriers concern foreign businessmen and noted that the last time (1930) high trade barriers were imposed by the United States the Great Depression quickly deepened. He said Americans need to realize how small the world has become.\nIn the United States, many people are concerned about high taxes. \"I strongly feel that a quick way to halt six years of economic growth in this country is to increase taxes,\" Riley said.\nHe noted that drugs is a big problem for businesses, not only among employees but also with some executives, and the problem costs millions of dollars daily. The new president should have a strong stand against drugs, Riley said. In Malaysia, Riley said, drug pushers are executed within 48 hours and the country's drug problem is under control without spending billions of dollars.\nOne of the biggest problems facing the United States is a lack of trained employees, Riley said. Although there are people without jobs, their lack of training makes them unemployable.\nThat means American businesses should rely more heavily on senior citizens and, rather than give them Social Security at 62, increase the Social Security age to 65 and \"keep them working instead of having them on the sidelines,\" Riley said.\nSpeaking about the national economy, Farrell said in the fourth quarter of 1987 the economy grew at 4.8 percent, but most of it was the buildup of inventory of unsold goods that could be a problem in the future.\nHe said that by allowing interest rates to come down, the Federal Reserve Board will prevent a reoccurrence of a 1981 recession when the prime interest rate was 21 percent. There were several factors existing in 1981 that caused the recession that don't exist now.\nFarrell said it would be unusual for the Federal Reserve Board to raise the prime interest rate to a high level, and even though the gross national product at a 2 percent increase is lower than many people would like it, \"it isn't bad when you consider the alternatives.\"\nSpeaking about the stock market, Farrell said that even though many investors lost money in last October's dramatic drop in prices, there are many who are waiting to get back into the market at better prices. So far in 1988 the stock market has done pretty well and the overall outlook for the economy is \"not too bad.\", Farrell said.\nAlso speaking in the Red Lion meeting was Jeff K. Thredgold, Key Bank of Utah's vice president and staff economist, who said although the number of jobs created in Utah in 1987 declined from previous years, Utah's job creation is higher than many surrounding states.\nEven though Utah's unemployment rate has been lower than surrounding states, it has gone down because of the declining labor forces, which is the result of four consecutive years of an out-migration of workers, Thredgold said. The out-migration causes problems for the economy because of fewer people buying things and a lower demand for housing, which hurts the construction industry.",

        "raw_content": "Review: Horizon Chase Turbo\n2018-07-22 16:00:00by Joel Peterson\nIt's time to burn dust! Eat my rubber!\nThere are two kinds of people. And maybe sometimes some overlap in between. There are people who think Top Gear is a UK television show where the host punched a man on the face and now is on Amazon Prime instead. And then there are those who think that Top Gear was a Super Nintendo racing game by Kemco in the nineties.\nBoth are right, though the Top Gear game has no relation to the television series. It was one of the first games I ever owned for the Super Nintendo, and had a sense of speed rivaling F-Zero. It had a couple of sequels, but only the first game and Top Gear Rally were scored by Barry Leitch, and this is important because the soundtrack for the original Top Gear was awesome, sporting a couple of burrowing ear worms which have stuck with people to this day, leading to all sorts of remixes and tributes on YouTube.\nSo bless me if I didn\u2019t get all choked up when realising that an inconspicuous little racer called Horizon Chase Turbo, available on Steam and PlayStation 4 by Brazilian developer Aquiris Game Studio was not only inspired by Top Gear, and essentially a superior spiritual sequel to the original, but also had the original composer in tow for the ride. And what a blistering ride it is.\nHorizon Chase Turbo (PS4 [reviewed], PC)\nPublisher: Aquiris Game Studio\nCiting other games like Outrun for its inspiration, while fair since a lot of '90s racers essentially functioned in a similar manner, it cannot be overstated how closely Horizon Chase Turbo mimics Top Gear in particular. If you break down the game to its fundamentals, it is essentially about sharp turns and avoiding other vehicles on the road. And while this may sound like an abundantly obvious statement, since of course that is what all racing games are about, the way these mechanics feel in Horizon Chase Turbo is very particular compared to other games in the genre.\nThe car damage of Top Gear 2 is gone, as is the complex upgrade system from that game and its sequel Top Gear 3000, with any of the realism of Top Gear Rally completely obliterated to leave only the heart of the original arcade-like experience intact. Races are short and brutal, and seldom will you find yourself cruising at the front of the line for more than a half a lap since every race is about the struggle to get there, with very little standing in your way to set you back once in front as long as your memory is good enough to remember the most difficult turns each track has in store.\nThere are also a lot of tracks. Instead of being set up like other racing games where you fight through a series of tracks and try to maintain a consistent rank, Horizon Chase Turbo is set up more like a mobile game (which is fitting since that is where it has been ported and expanded from) with three sets of two to four tracks per region spanning across different countries on the globe. Ranking in the top five places will unlock the next track in the sequence, with each victory accumulating points depending on rank and how many blue tokens the player was able to collect during the race.\nIf the player collects every blue token in a track and places first, they receive a super trophy and the maximum amount of available points for that track. Points accumulate and open up new areas, upgrade races that will unlock speed, boost, fuel, acceleration, and steering upgrades for all available cars simultaneously with a bit of flexibility in how those upgrades are applied, and of course new, albeit very generic, takes on popular vehicles.\nSince tracks are over quickly, there is a real addicting \u201cone more race\u201d quality to the game that kept me not only retrying courses in order to get first place and grab all the tokens, but also continuing to progress to see what each new track would offer, thanks in part to the simple but gorgeous and whimsically coloured background environments and track detail which changed substantially from region to region. Weather effects such as snow and rain are present to affect steering negatively, and with the same composer behind the game's soundtrack (including a few remixed tracks from the original Top Gear, which were a real treat to behold), I found a lot to keep me playing.\nBeyond the ability to play every track split-screen with multiple players, and a more traditional Championship mode, the fact that the game also boasts over 100 tracks and around 30 unlockable vehicles makes for not only a wonderful down-to-Earth arcade racing experience, but also effectively makes Horizon Chase Turbo the best Top Gear game ever made, even if it doesn\u2019t boast the name of the original IP.\nI had a hell of a time with Horizon Chase Turbo. Of all of the retro revival games that have come out over the past few years, it is near the top of my personal list of favourites. I can\u2019t get enough of it. For future iterations it would be cool to see a track editor, and maybe an online multiplayer mode, or some other way to implement variety into the core game since even with various tracks the experience can get tiring and is best served by short bursts of play, but I like what's here. Horizon Chase Turbo succeeds in being a worthy successor to Top Gear and doesn't try to pretend to do much else beyond that.\nHorizon Chase Turbo reviewed by Joel Peterson\nJoel PetersonContributor gamer profile\nI write the things other people don't write, with liberal fart jokes thrown in for good measure.

        "raw_content": "KP\u2019s Rough Task\nOct 21, 2010 2:09 PM By Avi Krawitz\nRAPAPORT... India is clearly courting Zimbabwe. In doing so, the world\u2019s largest diamond cutting center is sending its own, none-too-subtle, message ahead of the Kimberley Process (KP) plenary meeting set to take place in Jerusalem on November 1.\nThe local Indian industry hosted Zimbabwe Mines Minister Obert Mpofu, where he emerged as the clear guest of honor, somewhat overshadowing the PowerPoint presentations of De Beers, Rio Tinto, ALROSA and Botswana with both his charm and his country\u2019s untapped resources.\nMpofu subsequently visited Surat, where thousands of diamond workers \u2014 some holding A4 printouts showing the Indian and Zimbabwean flags side by side \u2014 lined the streets to greet him. He, in turn, appeared quite eager to see Zimbabwe diamonds in a Surat factory and when the goods arrived, his smile\u2019s sparkle made the diamonds pale by comparison.\nIn short, Mpofu\u2019s visit to India was a PR coup for Marange diamonds and it came just in time. These goods are about to be scrutinized again, not only by the KP, but perhaps more significantly, by human rights groups and the international media.\nIn the coming week preceding the KP plenary, as well as during the meeting, discussions will center on findings from a recent KP review mission to Zimbabwe and what the appropriate next steps will be to help bring Marange goods to the market.\nIt is likely that further KP-approved sales will be scheduled for production mined at Marange\u2019s Mbada and Canadile concessions after May 28, when they were deemed compliant with KP standards. There have been two already, in August and September. But the bigger question will be what to do with the stockpile of approximately 6 million carats of goods mined before May.\nThere are also questions about the military presence in the rest of the Marange fields and compliance issues in the other concessions that have been granted at Marange.\nThe truth is that very little is known about the operations being conducted at Marange. Transparency is clearly not a strong point in Zimbabwe\u2019s state-run agencies. This week, South African watchdog the Southern African Resource Watch and three members of the Chiadzwa community in Marange petitioned Mbada Diamonds\u2019 parent company, New Reclamation, to disclose the full extent of its Marange operations.\nAmongst other things, they want to see written assurances that Mbada\u2019s activities are benefiting all Zimbabweans, proof that compensation is being paid to communities relocated from the Marange concession area and evidence of the consultations that allegedly transpired with the leaders of affected communities ahead of the commencement of mining operations.\nExcluding discussions outlining the challenges of selling Marange goods to the U.S. and the European Union (EU), which both have trade sanctions on the governmental agencies controlling Marange, these issues did not enter the Mumbai fray, however. If Mpofu\u2019s blatant message at the conference was \u201cWe\u2019re going to sell these diamonds one way or another,\u201d India\u2019s less conspicuous reply was \u201cWe\u2019ll buy them.\u201d\nThe demand for Zimbabwe goods extends beyond India to Belgium, Israel, China and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and is indicative of the current hunger for rough diamonds in the market.\nAs Rio Tinto\u2019s marketing manager, Jean Marc Lieberherr, explained, there are a number of factors influencing the demand for rough at the moment. While these factors include buoyant emerging markets in China and India and the prevailing effects of the sharp production cuts enacted during the downturn, the most striking remains the fact that the long-term outlook for supply falls significantly below demand. More than one speaker at the Mumbai conference stressed that it is vital for manufacturers to ensure long-term, stable supply from producers. This is embodied by the Zimbabwe opportunity.\nMpofu claims Zimbabwe will soon be the largest diamond producer in the world. While the lack of transparency and available data about the Marange resource make it difficult to assess, the country will clearly be a major player, offering enough diamonds to ease nerves about the current shortage of rough.\nThese shortages will not be discussed in Jerusalem come November. But they will impact the meeting. It will be a challenge for KP members to separate themselves from these considerations. Frankly, it is difficult to argue that the livelihood of 800,000 Surat workers and their dependents is not reliant on a stable supply of rough that Zimbabwe promises.\nHowever, that is not the KP\u2019s mandate. Rather, its directive, in this instance, is to assure that the Zimbabwe diamonds that come to the market are conflict free, in every aspect of the definition. Despite all the Zimbabwe hype now apparent in India, fulfilling that goal remains a tough task.\nNote: This article is an excerpt from a market report that is sent to RapNet members on a weekly basis.

        "raw_content": "Born mute, speaking only in sign, Edgar Sawtelle leads an idyllic life with his parents on their farm in remote northern Wisconsin. For generations, the Sawtelles have raised and trained a fictional breed of dog whose thoughtful companionship is epitomized by Almondine, Edgar's lifelong friend and ally. But with the unexpected return of Claude, Edgar's paternal uncle, turmoil consumes the Sawtelles' once peaceful home. When Edgar's father dies suddenly, Claude insinuates himself into the life of the farm\u2014and into Edgar's mother's affections.\nGrief-stricken and bewildered, Edgar tries to prove Claude played a role in his father's death, but his plan backfires\u2014spectacularly. Forced to flee into the vast wilderness lying beyond the farm, Edgar comes of age in the wild, fighting for his survival and that of the three yearling dogs who follow him. But his need to face his father's murderer and his devotion to the Sawtelle dogs turn Edgar ever homeward.\nDavid Wroblewski is a master storyteller, and his breathtaking scenes\u2014the elemental north woods, the sweep of seasons, an iconic American barn, a fateful vision rendered in the falling rain\u2014create a riveting family saga, a brilliant exploration of the limits of language, and a compulsively readable modern classic.\n\u201c\u2026a stunningly well-written novel\u2026\u201d\n\u201c\u2026here is a big-hearted novel you can fall into, get lost in and finally emerge from reluctantly, a little surprised that the real world went on spinning while you were absorbed...grand and unforgettable.\u201d\n\u201cA literary thriller with commercial legs, this stunning debut is bound to be a bestseller.\u201d\n\u201cA stately, wonderfully written debut novel\u2026[Wroblewski] takes an intense interest in his characters; takes pains to invest emotion and rough understanding in them; and sets them in motion with graceful language\u2026 a boon for dog lovers, and for fans of storytelling that eschews flash. Highly recommended.\u201d\n\u201cA stunning first novel\u2026a ranging story that is part coming of age, part mystery and part tragedy on the order of Hamlet\u2026Wroblewski executes with elan, building an addicting tale peopled by fully dimensional characters. He carries the reader, with authority and confidence, on a thought-provoking ride.\u201d\n\u201cAn excruciatingly captivating read\u2026Ultimately liberating, though tragic and heart-wrenching, this book is unforgettable.\u201d\n\u201cEdgar Sawtelle is a boy without a voice, but his world, populated by the dogs his family breeds, is anything but silent. This is a remarkable story about the language of friendship\u0097a language that transcends words.\u201d\n\u201cI doubt we\u2019ll see a finer literary debut this year than The Story of Edgar Sawtelle.

        "raw_content": "12 Ways to Prepare for the Next Recession\nwritten by Irfan Ahmad November 26, 2018\nAnother recession is coming, and you better be ready. According to the Nationwide Retirement Institute, a recession occurs at least once every five years. While a recession is considered a natural occurrence in the economy, the aftermath of its effects can be devastating. This is why when this word is mentioned, everyone scampers for safety.\nYou can avoid the biting effects of this experience to some extent. One positive thing is that financial experts can make a forecast on when the next recession will hit. According to some of them, another economic downturn is about to hit from 2019 to 2020. Don\u2019t panic though. This article will show you 12 ways to fix your roof before the storm.\nKeep Tabs on Your Spending\nDuring good economic times, life seems to be easy. You have enough money to take care of the household expenses. You even have some surplus to spoil yourself with a well-deserved vacation. Even so, you could still be left without a dime when an economic storm hits.\nFor this reason, you need to track your spending. If you don\u2019t, most of the time you won\u2019t even know what you spent money on. By tracking your spending, you\u2019ll have a clear picture of what happens to those dollars.\nAlso, you can close the leaking financial holes in your budget and channel those funds toward more beneficial activities like investments. Keeping tabs on your spending isn\u2019t tricky, but if you feel overwhelmed, use a budget-tracking app.\nPay Off Any Pending Debts\nAfter identifying all the loopholes in your budget, you can use the surplus amount to pay off any debt. Debts are the biggest hurdle to any citizen toward financial freedom. Many Americans fail to achieve their dreams due to a heavy debt burden.\nBy cutting back on spending, you have the chance to clear any outstanding debt. As a result, when the recession hits, you won\u2019t have to tighten your budget as much as you would have before.\nGive More to Your Employer\nWhen the great recession hit, data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed unemployment hit 10% in October 2009. This may sound like a high rate, but it only translates to one in ten people.\nIt\u2019s important to stay on the good side of your employer to avoid losing your job at a time when you need it the most. One of the ways to keep your employer happy is by increasing your value to them.\nTake up a new course which can add to your skills and improve your versatility. This way, you become an asset to your employer. When recession hits and the axe of unemployment starts falling, you\u2019ll be safe.\nThis point cannot be overemphasized. You must have an emergency fund. Period. You cannot predict an emergency, but you can prepare for one. Try and avoid a situation where an emergency hits and you don\u2019t have any money to fix the problem. This is how people end up in debts.\nAccording to various financial experts, it\u2019s advisable always to have an emergency fund of at least nine months to cater for living expenses. This won\u2019t be a walk in the park, but it\u2019ll go a long way in cushioning you against harsh economic times.\nPrepare an Emergency Budget\nBefore an economic downfall, it\u2019s crucial for you to have an emergency budget ready. This will be easier if you already know how to prepare a reasonable budget.\nAn emergency budget works the same way as a normal budget; only this one looks at how you\u2019d spend your money, should you encounter financial constraints. This can be due to a job loss or even taking a pay cut.\nIn this budget, your expenses should range between 20% and 30% of your usual budget. This will allow you to know whether you can pull through a financial coma or not.\nMaintain a Stellar Credit Score\nSometimes when you have more than enough money, you tend to lose financial discipline. On-time payments are no longer a concern because they aren\u2019t affecting you momentarily.\nIf you have a stain on your report, however, your credit score will take a nosedive. A low credit score can be a hindrance to acquiring a loan when you need it the most, which is during a recession. Don\u2019t think that financial institutions don\u2019t give out loans during such times, they do. Therefore, it\u2019s vital for you to maintain an excellent score.\nTake Precautions Before Taking Out Loans\nTaking out loans during an economic downturn can be quite risky. If you decide to apply for a loan, visit nation 21 loans, make sure you can repay it.\nFor example, if you take out a loan to buy a certain asset, make sure to do your research. This asset should be able to pay off this loan with some leftover.\nGo Through Your Insurance\nThe primary objective of purchasing insurance is to protect against uncertainties. A recession is an excellent example of uncertainty. Take time to go through your insurance coverage to make sure you\u2019re adequately protected.\nOn top of that, you don\u2019t want to pay more on premiums. This is because, during harsh economic times, your budget will be tighter than normal. On the other hand, you also don\u2019t want to take a cheaper coverage and end up with extra costs at a time when you\u2019re in dire need of funds.\nLook for a Side Job\nTough times call for tough decisions. This is why you\u2019ll have to consider taking on a side job. This will go a long way in supplementing your income. Some of the side jobs you can take on include tutoring students, starting a business or even using your professional skills as a freelancer.\nRecessions come with numerous adverse effects one of them being job losses. If you fall victim to job loss, you want to ensure you have another source of income.\nReview Your Income Tax Withholding\nIn 2016, the IRS made about 111 million federal income tax refunds. This is about $2,860 for each taxpayer. In 2017, about 70% of all refund requests will be approved. This is like issuing a loan to the IRS and then later in the year, taxpayers get their money back when filing tax returns.\nWhen you don\u2019t have a pressing need, this is not an issue; however, when times get hard, you\u2019d rather have the money in your pocket. To do this, you have to review your withholding by completing a W-4 form and then submitting it to your employer.\nSustain Your Investment Strategy\nAn investment strategy is a plan you\u2019ve already tried and tested before. It\u2019s something you\u2019ve used for years. While going through your stocks during an economic crunch might be saddening, this isn\u2019t the best time to second guess your strategy.\nInstead, take advantage of new valuations which will enable you to make profits when the situation goes back to normal.\nDon\u2019t Rent, Buy\nDuring recessions, real estate prices take a nosedive. This is a brilliant opportunity for you to buy a home if you have been renting. The Bureau of Labor Statistics revealed that between 2005 and 2008 house prices dropped significantly. This was after a decade of constant growth in the prices.\nWhat\u2019s more, if you have strong credit, you can still negotiate for better rates when applying for a mortgage. Be a forward thinker and grab this opportunity.\nRecessions are inevitable. It doesn\u2019t matter when one hits, the most important factor is your preparedness. The tips outlined in this article will go a long way in providing some peace of mind the next time the economy slows down.\n12 Ways to Prepare for the Next Recession was last modified: November 29th, 2018 by Irfan Ahmad\nHow to Kill it in 2019: 5 Practices to Ease into the New Year\nHow to Drive Meaningful Traffic to Your...\nWhy you should have your business logo...",

        "raw_content": "The tiniest of donors: New neonatal organ donation program offers hope in tragedy\nJoAnne Viviano The Columbus Dispatch @JoAnneViviano\nNoah Calhoon\u2019s cooing was interrupted by a hiccup, and his parents knew the time was near.\nKelly and Adam Calhoon held their newborn, and they told him it was OK.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t need to struggle,\u201d his parents told him. \u201cYou\u2019ve done what you came to do.\u201d\nThe Worthington couple had brought their son through pregnancy aware that they\u2019d have to say goodbye soon after they said hello.\nThey had seen him through his 25-hour life without a moment spent outside the arms of someone who loved him.\nAnd they had made a plan that would ensure that the short life would leave a long legacy.\n>> Video: One family\u2019s decision to carry their anencephalic child to term\nAbout two hours after his death, Adam carried Noah from his wife's room at Mount Carmel St. Ann\u2019s hospital to an operating table, where the infant would undergo surgery to donate organs to research that could affect thousands of lives.\nThis tiniest of organ donors was the inspiration for Lifeline of Ohio\u2019s new program for newborns who suffer from anencephaly, a fetal developmental abnormality in which the skull fails to develop.\nNoah\u2019s parents spurred the organization to offer the opportunity after being delivered the diagnosis following an ultrasound 12 weeks into pregnancy.\nNoah, born on Jan. 10, was the second baby to donate; another newborn had donated six weeks earlier, according to Lifeline, a nonprofit agency that coordinates organ and tissue donations in 37 counties in Ohio and two in West Virginia.\nNoah's parents donated his liver, kidneys, lungs, thymus, pancreas, trachea and intestine to foster research involving cancer, diabetes, AIDS, kidney-disease risk, tuberculosis, asthma, lung transplants and a malabsorption disorder called short gut syndrome.\nResults of his autopsy at Nationwide Children\u2019s Hospital, located Downtown, are being used to teach about brain development and anencephaly. And tissue recovered during the procedure is available, through the hospital\u2019s Research Institute, to scientists around the world.\nThe significance of Noah's contributions is beyond words, said Dr. Amy Schlegel, director of perinatal palliative care at Nationwide Children\u2019s, who has for about four years cared for families expecting babies with potentially complex and life-limiting diagnoses.\n\u201cI have had many families ask about donation opportunities, and until very recently, the answer has usually been that, while we support their desire, there really aren\u2019t opportunities,\u201d Schlegel said.\nThe couple consulted with Lifeline employees, Schlegel and a bereavement team at Mount Carmel St. Ann\u2019s hospital in Westerville, where nurse Katie Christian said the Calhoons' actions mean that other grieving families now have another option.\nThe day of Noah's diagnosis, when Kelly heard the words \u201cnot compatible with life outside the womb,\u201d was the worst of her life, leaving her and Adam with the brutal task of deciding whether they should end the pregnancy.\nThat night, researching online, she encountered information about anencephaly and organ donation. It sparked something in her.\nWeeks later, after the couple had decided to carry the baby to term, the spark became a passion.\nIt wasn\u2019t a sure thing. Babies with anencephaly sometimes die in the womb or are born too prematurely to donate organs. But it was something for the Calhoons to hold onto.\n\u201cIt was an impact that he could have, it was an impact we could have in making that decision, so it was something that was sort of the silver lining to the whole thing,\" Adam said.\nBecause of his condition, Noah was born by Cesarean section and, aside from his underdeveloped brain, he was healthy. He met his 2-year-old sister, Josie, and other family members. Photos were taken, and his hand print and footprints were captured.\nAfter his donation surgery, Noah returned to his parents, swaddled with a stuffed animal and wearing a navy-blue onesie that matched his sister\u2019s.\nKelly didn\u2019t know what to say to him.\n\"What do you say, other than \u2018I love you, I\u2019m gonna miss you, you did a lot of really cool things, and a lot of people love you, a lot of people are gonna remember you\u2019?\u201d she said. \"I was just sort of at a loss for words, and Adam reminded me that I didn\u2019t need to say anything at all, that ... truly, we brought him this far. And he knew.\u201d\nThe next day, Noah left St. Ann's for Nationwide Children\u2019s. After an autopsy and tissue recovery, his parents held a memorial service, asking not for flowers but for donations to Lifeline and Nationwide Children\u2019s.\nIn the months since, Adam, a software engineer, took on a new job, because, he said, \u201clife is short.\u201d His wife, an accountant, is back in school, hoping to switch to a health-care career.\nKelly volunteers for Lifeline and has a team in the organization\u2019s July Dash for Donation at Genoa Park.\nNoah\u2019s 25 hours also affected others.\nKelly received a necklace in the mail from, she thinks, the friend of a neighbor. A woman at her gym, whom she doesn't know, gave her a card, saying Kelly\u2019s bravery and strength had affected her.\nAt St. Ann\u2019s, nurse Beth Swartz said the experience had a \"profound impact\" on the labor-and-delivery unit. She and Christian have become Lifeline volunteers.\nAt home, the Calhoons keep Noah\u2019s ashes, a tall stack of sympathy cards and a shadowbox with mementos and photos.\nJosie sometimes gives Eskimo kisses to Noah, pictured with his family on a birth day filled with much joy.\n\u201cI can honestly say that that was the best day of my life, just because there was so much love in that room,\" Kelly said. \"Everybody was so happy and excited, and there wasn\u2019t another care in the world. You just weren't thinking about anything other than 'This is why we did this, and we made it, and this was the payoff.'\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Home Popular Surgeon General Wants Americans to Carry Naloxone\nThe U.S. Surgeon general has urged Americans to carry naloxone.\nThe United States Surgeon General, Jerome Adams, MD, has urged Americans to carry naloxone, the opioid overdose reversal medication, in order to protect themselves and others as the consequences of the opioid crisis continue to accumulate.\nOn Thursday, April 5th, the U.S. Surgeon general issued an advisory which recommended that more Americans carry the opioid overdose reversal medication.\nNaloxone, which is often referred to by its brand name, Narcan, can swiftly reverse the effects of opioid overdose. Naloxone is not habit forming, and it has no negative effects when administered to a person who does not have opioids in their system.\nAdams appeared at the annual National Rx Drug Abuse & Heroin Summit in Atlanta, Georgia this week, where he made remarks on the ongoing opioid crisis in the United States. As noted in the statement advising more Americans to carry naloxone, over 42,000 Americans died as a result of opioid overdoses in 2016.\nBy administering a dose of naloxone, the effects of opioid overdose can be reversed, and a person can be brought back from the brink of death, affording them the opportunity to enter addiction recovery treatment and begin overcoming substance abuse.\nAdams made it clear that while increasing the access people had to naloxone would help save lives, it would only be an effective method of combating the opioid epidemic if its availability increased in tandem with adequate substance abuse recovery treatment.\nThe recommendation issued by the U.S. surgeon general urging Americans to carry naloxone follows similar recommendations that have been made in areas like Pennsylvania, which have been hit hard by the opioid crisis. In 2016, Pennsylvania Physician General Rachel Levine, MD, issued a standing order to allow citizens of the state to access the potentially life-saving naloxone at local pharmacies.\nBefore becoming U.S. surgeon general, Adams served as Indiana\u2019s health commissioner.\nPrevious articleDrug Abuse Programs in Middlesex County Supported by NJ Officials\nNext articleAddiction Treatment in Grand Island Supported by Youth Education Programs\nChildren in welfare programs more likely to use drugs, research\nOpioid crisis cuts down life expectancy in the US by 2.5...",

You don\u2019t even know.

        "raw_content": "Porta Potty Rental in Lincoln, ME\nNeed a Porta Potty Rental in Lincoln?\nWe have the commercial and residential porta potty service you need in Lincoln.\nAt Dumpsterator, we strive to bring you the best service at the best price available. We have a wide selection of porta potties in stock in Lincoln, ME, with flexible & timley pickup and delivery. Give us a call today for all your porta potty rental and portable toilet needs. Looking for porta potty rental in other cities? We have you covered as well!\nYour porta potty in Lincoln, ME is only a phone call away. Don't delay!\nPorta Potties are available* in Lincoln.\nPorta Potty Rental in Norway ME\nPorta Potty Rental in East Waterboro ME\nPorta Potty Rental in Lewiston ME\nPorta Potty Rental in West Kennebunk ME\nPorta Potty Rental in Kittery Point ME\nPorta Potty Rental in Sullivan ME\nDumpsterator Lincoln\nMany people are aware that portable toilets in Lincoln exist, and that they come in handy for special events where a large amount of patrons are present. What many do not realize is just how those portable toilets in Lincoln get to their locations. Not many are left to stand all year round, and are instead only present for a few days at a time. Most portable toilets in Lincoln are rented from a company and put in place during the duration of an event. Here is the definitive guide to portable toilet rentals and how they work best.\nHandicap stalls are now also available. These are relatively the same as the regular porta potties in Lincoln, except they are larger in size. This allows for extra space for a wheelchair to make its way inside. They also work well as family restrooms when a parent needs to go in to assist a child. These stalls also include a grab bar that provides a way for people to pull themselves up to standing when they are not able to do so on their own.\nThere is a lot to consider in terms of where the portable toilets in Lincoln will be placed at an event. The rental company in Lincoln may make some suggestions, but it is ultimately up to the host to determine exactly where the toilets should be located to best meet the needs of all guests in attendance.\nPeople will have to use the restroom more if they are eating and drinking at the event. During a concert or festival, many people are also more likely to take a trip to the bathroom while they are already up looking for a bite to eat. This makes a spot near food and beverages ideal for placing the portable toilets in Lincoln. Guests can quickly make their way between the toilet and the food stations when they are placed within a short distance of each other.\nEvents held at night will require lighting near the restrooms. Most porta potties in Lincoln do not come with light inside, so access to some will be extremely important. Placing the porta johns near a lighted stage, well-lit food stand, or other location with lighting will make the experience more enjoyable. If this is not possible, then lights should be added to the area to help keep the bathrooms lit during late night hours. Most become extremely dark inside, making it difficult for people to find their way around without some type of lighting.\nMany portable toilets in Lincoln do not have their own water system. This means they need to be located near a water hookup. The restroom trailers that are fully accommodated, such as including air conditioning, may need to be hooked up to electricity in order to run. The space needs to have these hookups in order to rent this type of facility. Without it, basic stalls may be all that can be used.\nIf a portable toilet is going to be present for several days, someone is going to have to service the station. This could mean emptying the contents, restocking toilet paper, and filling the dispensers with more soap or sanitizer. A worker at the event could manage this job on their own, or it could be included in the rental contract. This means someone from the rental company in Lincoln will do the servicing instead, for a fee. This is often the best option, as it gets the job done well and leaves the event workers to focus on other tasks.\nHosts do not always have to find a local company. They can choose a rental company in Lincoln that is farther away from the event site, as long as they are aware that the cost may be higher. Some rental facilities charge per mile for delivering the portable toilets in Lincoln to the right location. This could add up to a large cost, but it may be well worth it to receive quality rentals. Some companies will only charge the per-mile fee after a set amount of miles have been driven. This helps save on some costs.\nCosts sometimes increase during peak seasons, particularly during summer months when concerts, fairs, festivals, weddings, and other special events are frequently seen. For this reason, it is best to look into advanced booking. If hosts pre-book their rental during winter, for example, it could save money. It also ensures the portable toilets in Lincoln will be present when needed. Those who wait until the last minute to book will not only be paying more, but they may have trouble even finding a rental available at all.",

        "title": "Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Guidelines FAQ :: City of Edmonton",
        "raw_content": "Transit Oriented Development Guidelines Video\nTransit Oriented Development (TOD) Guidelines FAQ\nHere are frequently asked questions and answers about Transit Oriented Development (TOD) and the City's draft TOD Guidelines.\nWe\u2019ve had LRT and Transit Centres for a long time, why are we only talking about Transit Oriented Development (TOD) now?\nThe Way Ahead, Edmonton\u2019s strategic plan, sets out a vision of a more compact, transit oriented and sustainable city, where more people walk, cycle and use transit than they do today.\nThe Way We Move, Edmonton\u2019s Transportation Master Plan, outlines a vastly expanded LRT network to all areas of the city. More than 40 new LRT stations will be added to the network over the next 30 years.\nThe Way We Grow, Edmonton\u2019s Municipal Development Plan, directs that guidelines be prepared for land use and design to build higher density and mixed use communities at LRT stations and transit centres. That expansion of the LRT and transit system and an emphasis on a more compact city means the time to plan for TOD is now.\nWhy do we need or want TOD in Edmonton when the LRT might not be built in my neighbourhood for another 20 plus years?\nTOD is an exciting approach to building a city that can help to achieve Edmonton\u2019s vision. It concentrates housing, shopping and employment along a network of walkable and bikeable streets within a five minute walk of transit stations.\nWith the expansion of our LRT network, and with greater emphasis on transit use, walking and cycling in the future, it makes sense to pursue TOD as land use change takes time.\nTOD incorporates good design principles in urban planning. Even where a transit station may not be present for many years to come, TOD principles make for good neighbourhoods. TOD's will be served by higher levels of transit service, including LRT, higher frequency bus routes and/or express bus routes where warranted.\nWho prepared the TOD Guidelines?\nThe TOD Guidelines were prepared by Crandall Arambula, a planning / architecture consulting company based in Portland, Oregon, along with City of Edmonton staff. The firm has extensive experience with TOD and station area planning.\nWhat consultation on this has taken place to date?\nThe City worked with an Advisory Committee of professionals from a number of City departments to develop the guidelines. We also worked with a group of key stakeholders representing a variety of groups and interests, such as the Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues, the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce, and the Canadian Home Builders Association. By April 2011, those groups helped us get the guidelines to the stage where we could present them to the public and get feedback.\nFrom April to June 2011, the City met with 10 different stakeholder groups such as the Urban Development Institute and the Edmonton Transit System Advisory Board to deliver a brief presentation on the draft guidelines and invite questions and feedback. As well, the city held five public open houses in May 2011 at locations along each of the current or planned LRT routes in the city \u2013 again featuring a short presentation followed by an opportunity for questions and discussions. Information was also available on our website, including an online feedback questionnaire.\nIn all, more than 200 people directly participated in the consultations by attending an open house, one of the other presentations or filling out the online questionnaire.\nWhat happens next with the TOD Guidelines?\nThese are draft guidelines and must be approved by City Council before they are finalized. City administration is now preparing a TOD Guidelines report for Executive Committee of Council, which we expect to present in November 2011. At that time, there will be an opportunity for the public to participate at the meeting.\nWhen will the guidelines come into effect?\nIf they are approved by City Council in November 2011, they will take effect immediately and will help guide development around LRT stations and Transit Centres.\nHow firm are the locations of future LRT and Transit Stations as they are shown on your maps today?\nThe LRT routes shown in the maps are the ones that are approved by Council and are a part of the Transportation System Bylaw. The LRT station and Transit Centre locations along most of the lines have also been approved by Council. Only the exact station locations on the NW line past NAIT and the Downtown LRT Connector have not been approved yet.\nAre there TOD plans for transit stations that already exist?\nThere is a conceptual TOD plan for the Stadium LRT Station that has not yet been approved by Council. There have been some prominent rezonings near existing / future LRT stations (for example, Century Park, Strathearn Heights, Vision on the Corner) that are transit supportive, but may not truly reflect transit oriented development.\nOne of the most important things about developing these TOD Guidelines is that they will allow us to set out expectations for TOD before specific development plans are done for current or future transit stations. We can be ahead of the game.\nWhat changes can I expect in my neighbourhood if TOD goes ahead and these guidelines are approved?\nIt depends on a number of different factors: market conditions, available land for redevelopment and if property owners take initiative to rezone or develop their property. For example, if you are in a mature neighbourhood with little or no vacant land available to be developed, there may be very little change in your neighbourhood. Unless a property owner wants to change the zoning and undertake a major re-development, the development in your neighbourhood might look very similar to what it is today.\nWill the City force TOD style development if a community doesn\u2019t want it?\nNo, the City has no plans to force TOD in existing communities. It is up to individual property owners to change or develop their properties to support transit. Within mature neighbourhoods (Neighbourhood Station Area Type), the expectations are limited to two storey town houses or duplexes. Low-rise apartments are expected along major roads and on large redevelopment sites.\nThe Guidelines will apply to rezoning proposals, statutory plan amendments and the creation of station area plans that property owners or developers put forward within 400 metres of an LRT station or Transit Centre.\nHow will TOD affect property values?\nStudies show that homes and property become more valuable to people when there are more transportation options to move around the City such as better transit service or access to bicycle and walking paths, and where there are local services and opportunities for employment that a TOD should provide. The Edmonton Transportation Effect report shows a 10% to 20% increase in property values within 800 metres of LRT. In general, the experience in other cities has been that property values rise.\nWill the City be buying private property to make way for TOD?\nIn general, no. The City has no plans to buy private property within neighbourhoods for TOD.\nThe Guidelines are not intended to force TOD, but rather, be in place for the time when existing property owners or developers begin to consider their development options. It is possible, though, that the City might choose to use land it already owns to foster TOD \u2013 for example, the City Centre Airport lands. The City also occasionally buys key properties as determined through a station area plan or as opportunities arise. In some cases, the City may also choose to acquire land for public realm improvements such as urban parks or plazas in station areas.\nHow does TOD tie into the City\u2019s neighbourhood renewal work?\nGreat neighbourhoods are the building blocks of a great city. The City of Edmonton is enhancing its investments in the physical and social infrastructure of our communities. These investments improve the long-term livability of Edmonton's neighbourhoods and the lives of the people who live and work in them, and who visit them.\nTOD is complementary to initiatives like neighbourhood renewal. There will be efforts made to coordinate neighbourhood renewal projects between internal agencies such as Drainage Services and Transportation to fall in line with TOD.\nIs there an example of Transit Oriented Development in Edmonton now?\nSome developments in Edmonton have been referred to as \u201cTransit Oriented\u201d because they are close to an LRT line or a bus route, but this is often inaccurate because they do not have all of the features of TOD that the Guidelines include - things like a mix of housing, retail and public spaces, walking and biking paths, and so on.\nHowever, when it is completed, one example of a development in Edmonton that could be considered transit oriented is Century Park. This is a higher density neighbourhood (Enhanced Neighbourhood Station Area Type) that will include a good mix of land uses, pedestrian connectivity, high quality urban design, and open spaces. It was initiated in anticipation of the Century Park LRT station, which now exists.\nWhat other Alberta or Canadian cities have TOD Guidelines? Are they similar to ours?\nOther cities have adopted similar TOD Guidelines.\nCalgary adopted their Transit Oriented Development Policy Guidelines in 2004 to provide land use and development polices and design guidelines for the development or redevelopment of properties within Transit Station areas. Design guidelines provide options for implementing TOD within the contexts of the different station types throughout Calgary. Guidelines provide direction for all levels of planning processes and development applications in station areas, which help to clarify the City's intent for development and achieve Council approved policy.\nThe City of Hamilton adopted Transit Oriented Development Guidelines in 2010. The TOD Guidelines serve as an implementation tool and complements existing City land use policies like the Hamilton Official Plan. Similar to Edmonton, station area types and development expectations differ based on site specific criteria.\nThe City of Vancouver established rezoning guidelines along the Cambie Corridor on the Canada Line prior to undertaking station planning.",

Last year the Federal Labour Court found this requirement to be compatible with European law and did not find it necessary to refer questions to the ECJ (see EELC 2010/45). Now a lower court has decided to ask the ECJ whether the German time-bar rule is compatible with (1) primary EU law and (2) Directive 2000/78.\nLandesarbeitsgericht Hamburg, 2009-06-03\n2010/39: How to define \"establishment\" in collective redundancy directive (SP)\nWhat is an establishment in the meaning of Directive 98/59 on collective redundancies?\n2010/53: How a \"secondary insolvency\" procedure can protect assets from a foreign receiver (IT)\nUnder EU Regulation 1346/2000 it is possible to open secondary insolvency proceedings even if the establishment situated in the State where the secondary proceedings are to be opened is the only one owned by the debtor subject to the main insolvency proceedings.\nCourt of Appeal of Turin, 2009-03-10\n2011/12: Final word on the Goodyear case: Greek employees may rely on the Collective Redundancy Directive (GR)\nUntil 2007, Greek courts interpreted their domestic law by implementing the Directive on Collective Redundancies in such a way that it did not apply in the event that an employer completely terminates its activities. However, following a ruling by the ECJ, the Greek Supreme Court was compelled to adopt a different approach. As a result, an employer relying on the old case law fell victim to this change in interpretation.\nAthens Court of Appeal, 2008-09-15\n2010/46: Rules protecting pregnancy also apply after having stillborn baby (GR)\nProhibition against terminating the employment agreement of a pregnant woman even in the case of a stillborn child.\nA\u03c1\u03b5\u03b9\u03bf\u03c2 \u03a0\u03ac\u03b3\u03bf\u03c2 (Supreme Court), 2008-06-09\n2011/3: TUPE potentially applies to cross-border transfers (UK)\nThe United Kingdom legislation on transfer of undertakings (known as \u201cTUPE\u201d) has the potential to apply to a transfer outside the UK\u2019s jurisdiction \u2013 and even beyond the European Union (EU).\n2010/49: A single act - here relocating an employee to another location in a factory - can constitute harassment (PT)\nHarassment can occur as a result of one single action: it is enough that the situation is characterized by harassment features.\n\u00ab \u2039 \u2026 87 88 89",

        "raw_content": "Excel relies on some essential objects to provide access to the various data elements. Because of the nature of worksheets, you'll find that each of these objects can actually perform multiple duties. For example, you don't have to access a worksheet through a Workbook object unless you don't know the name of the worksheet. Most objects also include links to objects above and below the current position in the hierarchy so that you can use the object of convenience to access a data element.\nYou also have to consider the way that objects appear in the document. For example, a chart can appear as a separate item, or it can appear within a worksheet. When the chart appears as a separate item, you see it listed in Project Explorer and you can work with the object directly. Always access charts included within a worksheet by using the Sheet object.\nThis section focuses on Excel object issues. The demonstrations show how the various objects interact and what you need to consider while you design and build your Excel program. For example, you need to consider where to add charts and graphs while you build them so that they're most convenient in displaying the data.",

        "raw_content": "A Strong Work Ethic Distilled to Its 5 Essential Qualities\nHard work is necessary but not sufficient: Emphasize instead the 'ethic' part, if you want to elevate yourself and your brand to the highest level.\nImage credit: FS Productions | Getty Images\nSuhaib Mohammed\nB2B Copywriter for E-Commerce Businesses at SuhaibMohammed.com\nThe path to producing more, attracting massive numbers of customers, selling more and dominating your industry starts with cultivating a strong work ethic.\nYour work ethic is the moral principles that guide you in your job, business and career. A strong work ethic motivates you and your team to do the things that matter. Think of it as a light in the darkness.\nAs an entrepreneur, you need a light that illuminates your world, clears your way and guides you on the path to your destination. Work ethic is your light. It doesn\u2019t just illuminate your thoughts; it also pushes you to stay focused on your cause and energizes you to be at your best.\nHere are the top five components of an excellent work ethic that will elevate your brand and accelerate your success.\nPicture this: A new mobile phone company just launched a product. Through smart social media marketing, you landed at their storefront and spent about an hour navigating their landing page and reading their product reviews. It seemed like everything was good, so you finally clicked to place an order.\nHowever, after you bought the smartphone, you came to realize some strange things. It\u2019s a bogus product. The phone\u2019s internal memory is just one Gigabyte\u2014not four as the company advertised, the battery doesn\u2019t last and you can hardly make a call because the phone freezes up all the time. Understandably, you feel that the company has ripped you off.\nWould you buy from that brand again? I\u2019m certain your answer would be a big no. Why? The company is not honest.\nHonesty is a strong work ethic that every founder, CEO and marketer should weave into his company culture. As it happens, being truthful is not just important for your sales. It\u2019s also essential for converting your one-time buyer into a loyal customer.\nYou have to be humble to develop this core work ethic.\nRelated: The Importance Of Honesty And Integrity In Business\nFrom humble beginnings, a small digital startup will launch, selling its products to customers with passion and excellent customer service. But after it expands, grows bigger and scales into a large, profitable company, its customers begin to feel ignored. The company becomes less accessible to them because it\u2019s now too big.\nThat is a recipe for failure. If you want to succeed, you have to be humble. No matter how expansive your customer base becomes, if you don\u2019t come down to earth to respect them, serve them with consistent value, remain accessible to them, listen to their queries, invent for them, then you will lose them.\nI\u2019m a firm believer in hard work. When I started out as a freelancer, I\u2019d show up to write on my blog for a day or two, and then I\u2019d suffer from writer\u2019s block for the rest of the week.\nProspecting for clients, guest posting, and social media marketing were not even part of my agenda. I\u2019d just pen a few words when I felt like it and enjoy the rest of my week with my pals on the beach. The result?\nZero traffic and zero income. Then I read somewhere that Andre Agassi, the tennis champion, had a strong work ethic. He would hit 500 balls every day. That was what elevated his career, making him \u201cthe biggest worldwide star in the sport\u2019s history,\u201d according to BBC. That changed my work life forever.\nI began to work ten hours a day, writing and prospecting for clients like crazy. And that really paid off. Not only did I start building my brand identity, but I also saw a spike in my income. I started making $1000 plus per month, courtesy of hard work.\nMost startups don\u2019t value their customers. By respect, I don\u2019t mean bowing to or saluting your customer.\nRelated: 7 Trust-Building Tips To Use In Your Business\nYou respect your customer when you sell them a product that exceeds their expectations, when you listen to their feedback, when you apologize for your misdeeds. While these might seem unimportant, your customers actually feels valued when you do these things.\nCompanies with a strong work ethic like Amazon and Starbucks understand that. That\u2019s why \u201ccustomer obsession,\u201d for example, is at the core of Amazon\u2019s company culture. At Amazon, said Jeff Bezos, in an interview with Charlie Rose, \u201cwe\u2019re not competitor obsessed; we\u2019re customer obsessed. We start with the customer, and we work backward.\u201d\nNot only is the company working hard to always provide its million customers with quality products at affordable prices, but it also works hard to deliver the products on time.\nDo you want to elevate your brand beyond your imagination? Put your customer first.\n5. Responsibility.\nNo matter how big your company is, if you do not to take responsibility for your actions, you will fail.\nTake Uber, for example. While the company has grown massively, reaching as high as $70 billion in value, the ride-hailing service has suffered setbacks in its revenue, credibility and public image because its leaders failed to honor their responsibilities.\nThe company leaders were at war with politicians and government regulations in Taiwan, had combative relations with London transport authorities, failed to abide by regulations in Japan, took less strict measures in curbing incessant sexual assaults committed by its drivers, and the list goes on.\nRelated: Uber Needs to Recreate its Company Culture. Here's What You Can Learn From Its Mistakes.\nThese serious problems caused many setbacks for the company and forced its founder, Travis Kalanick, to resign. To help the company bounce back, its new CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi, drafted what he called Uber\u2019s new \u201ccultural norms,\u201d a new work ethic that the company must undertake moving forward.\nAmong the cultural norms is this powerful clause: \u201cWe do the right thing. Period.\u201d And that\u2019s what work ethic is all about: Doing the right thing. No more, no less.\nIs Your Work Ethic Better than Average?

        "title": "What Causes Bone Spurs On The Spine?",
        "raw_content": "What Causes Bone Spurs On The Spine?\nTo understand what the reason is behind the development of bone spurs on the spine, it is crucial to have knowledge about bone spur. A bone spur is a tiny projection developed by the body along the edges of the bone to offer support to the deteriorating spinal structure. Bone spur often occurs in the regions where different bones meet, especially in the joints.\nThe important cause for the presence of bone spur on the spine is due to joint damage associated with osteoarthritis. It is impossible to detect the symptoms of bone spurs on the spine in the nascent stage, and people continue to participate in their regular activities with ease. However, at some point, they begin to experience the pain. Additionally, one may not feel the pain continuously, as it can come and go throughout the day. Fortunately, many do not require any treatment until the situation calls for one. Deciding on the therapy requires understanding about the cause of the occurrence of bone spurs on the spine, the location, and how it is affecting the health.\nAs osteoarthritis breaks the protective cartilage layer at the ends of the bones, the body attempts to fill the loss by creating the bone spurs in the damaged region.\nIt is difficult to point towards signs and symptoms caused by bone spurs on the spine. An individual may not realize that he or she possesses the illness until they undergo an x-ray. In certain situations, it is possible for the bone spur to cause loss of motion and excessive increase in pain.\nSymptoms of Bone Spurs on the Spine\nSymptoms of bone spur depend on the location. For example:\nThe occurrence of the bone spur in the spine can narrow the space containing the spinal cord. The presence of the bone spurs in this region is capable of pinching the spinal cord and the nerve roots, which develops weakness and numbness in legs and arms.\nThe presence of bone spur in the hip can be painful during the movement. One can also feel pain in the knee. Depending on the severity, it is possible for the individual to experience a decrease in the motion of the joint.\nThe presence of bone spur on the shoulder can cause wear and tear of the rotator cuff, which is a collective group of tendons and muscles that control the entire shoulder movement.\nTests and Diagnosis of Bone Spurs on the Spine\nAs it is difficult to notice the presence of bone spurs on the spine, the doctor would want to know more about the details before concluding. It is crucial to list out the symptoms, mention about medical information such as medications and supplements, family history related to bone and joint diseases, accidents, and other illnesses. You can also prepare a questionnaire that you wish to ask the doctor. These questions will be helpful in understanding about the situation, which will further help in taking care of the entire scenario.\nTreatment for Bone Spurs on the Spine\nIt is crucial to seek immediate medical assistance when a person identifies pain or swelling caused by bone spurs on the spine. One can also look towards the emergency ward or treatment if they find it difficult in moving the spine. Addressing the issue in its early stage can reduce the pain or severity, making the bone spurs to grow at a less pace than expected that will provide the needed relief for the individual.\nWith appropriate action at the right time, avoiding the growth of bone spur on the spine is possible.\nBone Spurs or Osteophytes- Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment\nNeck Bone Spurs or Cervical Osteophytes: Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment\nShoulder Bone Spurs: Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment\nWhat Causes Bone Spurs in the Neck?\nAre Bone Spurs Genetic?\nWhat is a Bone Spur in the Knee?\nCan Bone Spurs On The Spine Be Removed?\nCan Bone Spurs Be Dissolved?",

No, I\u2019m not changing my name, but when I read Debby Irving\u2019s book, Waking Up White: Finding Myself in the Story of Race, I realized she was telling my story. Like Debby Irving, I grew up in New England in two all-white towns, and I never had a classmate of color until I began my graduate work at Columbia University, and even then it was rare. My parents had grown up during the Depression, so although my dad was a successful NYC executive, I was raised to be frugal and hard-working. I was also told that I could be anything I wanted to be when I grew up so long as I was willing to put my nose to the grindstone. I imagined that my success was due to the fact that I had loving parents who could afford to\ngive me a good education, and I had internalized the value of hard work.\nby Suzy Burke | Posted 2/4/2019 | Comments\nThe Episcopal Church in Connecticut joins community to run 3.1 miles for refugees and immigrants in New Haven\nNear the starting line of the 5k\nUnlike most races where runners stand in silence while someone sings the National Anthem, Sunday\u2019s IRIS \u2013 Integrated Refugees and Immigrant Services\u2019 Run for Refugees began with the Yale Gospel Choir singing Emma Lazarus\u2019 poem, \u201cThe New Colossus,\u201d the words written on the base of the Statue of Liberty:\nFrom left, Alli Huggins, Karin Hamilton,\nJoseph Carroll, Jr., and Keith Bailey\nThis year was the 12th year IRIS and the community gathered outside Wilbur Cross High School, only blocks away from their office in the East Rock neighborhood of New Haven, to run 3.1 miles for refugees and immigrants.

The altar was designed in 1815 by Ithiel Town, architect for Trinity\u2019s second, and current, building. Town\u2019s personal library included over 11,000 volumes. That made him, said Peg Chambers, a Trinity historian and architect herself, \u201cthe perfect architect for the job of designer/builder of our new altar for our new church.\u201d\nBut the story of the book-altar really begins with two tablets: Town\u2019s altar may have been inspired by both his love of books as well as a desire for a \u201cmodern\u201d presentation of the tenets of faith that had been displayed on two tablets in Trinity\u2019s first church.\nby Karin Hamilton | Posted 1/8/2019 | Comments\nVestry Covenants\nby the Rev.

The meeting went overtime due to an emotionally charged discussion about a recent bequest\u2014a grand piano from the estate of an elderly member, an unexpected but graciously received gift. Early on it became evident that several vestry members have differing views about how the piano should be used. Sally, a long-time choir member serving her third year on the vestry, calls out to Henry as he walks to his car.\nSally: Henry, do you have a few minutes? I\u2019m furious how this meeting went tonight. I can\u2019t believe that our senior warden suggested donating this beautiful piano to a nursing home. What a ridiculous idea! He has no appreciation for our music program. Just because he can\u2019t carry a tune does not give him the right to discard an incredible gift. He\u2019s out of touch with what this church really needs. If you let him know that some people are upset, he\u2019ll listen to you.\nHenry: Hi Sally. I had no idea you were angry about tonight\u2019s discussion. I\u2019m not sure the warden will listen to me, since I\u2019m a new vestry member. Why don\u2019t I send him an email to let him know how you feel? See you Sunday.\nSound familiar? \u201cParking lot conversations\u201d are as much a part of church life as the Sunday morning coffee hour. However, these informal, private conversations can do great harm. They may seem innocuous, but things begin to surface when there is anxiety in the congregation\u2019s leadership. It is no longer about the piano but about more substantive, unresolved issues that have been festering\u2014and sometimes for a very long time.\nUnfortunately, Sally has put Henry in a sticky situation by asking him to speak to the warden about how upset some people are. It is likely that nothing will come of this conversation but hurt feelings and mistrust.\nAs spiritual leaders, we are often caught off-guard, finding ourselves in awkward situations and unsure of how to handle them. Practical tools and guidelines, like the vestry covenant, can help us navigate these sometimes turbulent waters in our congregations.\nA valuable tool for your vestry toolbox, a vestry covenant can help members:\nExplore the dynamics of their relationships with one another\nFacilitate healthy and open communication\nEliminate the negative behaviors that derail necessary and robust conversations\nIn recent years, many vestries have adopted the vestry covenant as their standard for healthy leadership. These covenants provide the cornerstone for building a trusting and viable community of spiritual leaders.\nBiblical examples of leadership often involve covenants and have been around since the days of Abraham, Moses and Noah when God used them to establish a relationship with God\u2019s people. Jesus himself is the fulfillment of the New Covenant. He is our model for leadership and how to do this good and holy work of building healthy, life-giving relationships.\nThroughout the Gospel, Jesus uses parables to teach the importance of loving relationships. He models what we call \u201cgood communication skills,\u201d by being truly present and listening to those around him. Paul\u2019s letters to struggling communities are powerful reminders of what it means to live as Jesus lives. They encourage us as leaders to be \u201can example to believers in speech, life, love and purity\u201d (1 Timothy 4:12).\nCovenants provide for accountability while building relationships based on love, trust and respect. Both are essential in creating a safe environment that fosters trust and confidentiality, whatever our differences.\nSo how does a vestry go about making a covenant that is not just another well-meaning project that ends up on the shelf collecting dust? Below are some suggestions to consider in drafting your vestry covenant:\nLove one another, speaking the truth in love\nTreat each other with respect, despite differences\nDeal with conflict by speaking first to the individual\nStrive for unity in seeking God\u2019s will in all things\nBe a living example of faithfulness through study, worship, giving and prayer\nRespect confidential issues\nJust as important as the covenant itself is the process of drafting the document. The entire vestry should be involved and each member encouraged to contribute his or her ideas. It is a good practice to review the covenant annually and ask for input from new vestry members. The overall goal is to create a culture of openness.\nThis process takes time, and there will be mistakes along the way. Persistence will pay off as vestry members experience the value of working together, setting an example for each other and the entire parish as they strive to be the living Body of Christ. And it begins with simply loving our neighbors as ourselves, as Jesus taught us.\nIf St. Swithen\u2019s had a vestry covenant, the parking lot conversation might have gone a bit differently:\nSally: Hi Henry. I\u2019m not happy with the way the meeting went tonight. I think I will give the warden a call tomorrow to discuss it. This is an important issue for me.\nHenry: I can see that you are upset. I am sure the warden will appreciate your letting him know how you feel. Thanks for sharing your concerns. See you Sunday.\nThe Rev.

Rev. Laura J. Ahrens\nThe road to Gaza. He asked himself, how did he ever get here? Just a few days ago he was preaching and proclaiming the Good News in Samaria, and now God called him to the Gaza Road. The angel of the Lord had said \u201cgo\u201d and so he did. He hadn\u2019t thought much about it when the call first came, but now he was curious. What was God up to and how was God inviting him to serve?\nWhen God called Philip to go to the city of Samaria, he had some sense of what to do. He would go and listen to the stories of the people in the community and share stories of Jesus. He could share his own story of coming to Christ and how he was commissioned by the apostles in Jerusalem to serve at table and to share the Good News out in the world.\nAnd now he was curious. How was he to share God\u2019s hope on a road? Along THIS road? And where was he supposed to be on this road? \u201cGo to the road\u201d the angel had said and so he did. And here he was, walking about, curious about what God was calling him to see and hear. What was he supposed to do? What was God up to? It made no sense for Philip to be here, and yet some how, since he began following Jesus, nothing in the old world made sense and yet everything made sense. Everything was filled with the wonder and the possibility of sharing God\u2019s love. Even the challenges and the surprises were opportunities.\nWait a minute, Philip thought, this is the wilderness road. What was he thinking! He remembered stories he had heard about this road....the Gaza road is not a safe place to be! Philip checked his emotions. Was he afraid? A little bit. Was he curious? A whole lot! What was God up to!\nHe could see a chariot in the distance. Was this who God was calling Philip to be with? Then the fear took over... What if this man robbed him and left him for dead by the side of the road? He had heard stories about the Gaza road. He remembered hearing a story in Samaria about a man who had been beaten and left for dead by the side of the road, was that the Gaza road? No, he remembered, that was the road to Jericho. He paused for a minute. Hum. The world seemed so unsafe all of a sudden. Violence seemed to permeate all the stories that people were telling. Violence here, a violent act there. Places where you might expect and places where you would never dream violence ever would come. He was glad that he had found Jesus or been found by him. Jesus offered hope. When he lost sight of that hope his companions and the Christian community helped him to feel God\u2018s love. Even when he felt like he was in the wilderness, he still felt some small connection to God. Centuries later the Christian author Frederick Buechner would write, \u201cThe promise is that, yes, on the weary feet of faith and the fragile wings of hope, we will come to love him ... as from the first he has loved us \u2013 loved us even in the wilderness, especially in the wilderness, because he has been in the wilderness with us. He has been in the wilderness for us\u2026 And rise we shall, out of the wilderness, every last one of us, even as out of the wilderness Christ rose before us.( Listen to your life)\nPhilip wanted to share God\u2019s hope with the world...a world broken and divided, struggling with anxiety and frozen grief. Jesus\u2019s message and witness are filled with stories of love and forgiveness, reconciliation and new life. He wanted to join God in healing this broken world. By being in loving relationships with others and offering a new way of being in the world, God\u2019s love would bring about a more peace-filled future. Sharing God\u2019s love in word and action.\nPhilip was deep in thought when the angel of God again spoke to him. \u201cGo over to the chariot and join it\u201d the angel said. Well, that answered the question of what he was to do next. He walked over to the chariot, a little cautious and very curious....here is an opportunity for me to proclaim the Good news of Jesus Christ. He took a deep breath in, he was excited and ready to evangelize....and then he paused. He felt God calling him to slow down, to breath out, and to listen. Just Listen.\nPhilip heard the man reading aloud a passage from the prophet Isaiah. He was surprised and over joyed. Trying not to be too overbearing, Philip gently responded to what the man was saying, \u201cDo you understand what you are reading?\u201d He asked with a genuine sense of curiosity. Did the man understand it? How did he understand it? Philip was open to however the man responded. The man replied, \u201cHow can I, unless someone guides me?\u201d Philip paused again, \u201cdon\u2019t be too pushy\u201d he thought. Wait. Listen. And then the man invited Philip to come sit beside him. Responding to the invitation, Philip climbed into the chariot and they began to explore together what Isaiah was saying.\nPhilip shared the stories of Jesus, he shared about God\u2019s hope and love revealed in the resurrection. The man in the chariot could feel Philip\u2019s excitement and his genuine joy in knowing Jesus. And, he could also feel Philip\u2019s genuine care for him. The hospitality of Philip was a profound gift. Here was a complete stranger who had taken the time to listen to him, listening to his stories and exploring with him answers to his questions. He felt heard and cared for in a new way. He had not always been well received by friends and strangers alike. As a court official in service to the Queen, he was respected for his position, but at times he felt lonely or excluded. He longed for community, for something more. Perhaps that is why he had traveled to Jerusalem, to the Temple. He was looking for something. And could feel that something or someone was looking for him. The stories of Jesus which Philip told him filled him with hope. He felt as though it was God who had been looking for him, and he had been looking for God.\nMeanwhile, Philip was thinking what gracious hospitality this man was offering. He wondered, Who is the guest and who is the host? That question was lost. They were companions in Christ, fellow travelers on the road, both physically and spiritually.\nPhilip baptized the man that day, bringing him into the fellowship of Christ and joining him with the Christian family that was expanding across the world. God then immediately called Philip away to a new adventure and the new convert continued on his way, rejoicing ... and curious, how was God calling him to share the Good News of Jesus Christ in the world? He was open and excited about how he could share God\u2019s love particularly to a world that seemed longing to hear such a Word.\nI wonder....How might God be calling you? Are you curious?\nby Bishop Laura J. Ahrens | Posted 11/17/2017 | Comments\nBishop Seabury's restored mitre returns to The Commons\nIn 1786, two years after his consecration, Samuel Seabury, Bishop of Connecticut, did something unheard of in the 18th century Anglican Communion and Episcopal Church: he had a mitre made.\nThat mitre returned to The Commons last month following a five-week restoration at the Textile Conservation Workshop in South Salem, N.Y.\nBishop Diocesan Ian T. Douglas and Meg Smith, ECCT's archivist, hold Bishop Seabury's restored mitre\nThe Rev. Dr. Kenneth W. Cameron, a former Episcopal Church in Connecticut archivist and a professor at Trinity College in Hartford, allegedly recovered the mitre from a fraternity that \u201cenjoyed\u201d it at parties. One rumor, according to current ECCT archivist Meg Smith, is they drank beer from it.\nThe mitre sat in a specially-built wooden box, with a lock and glass door, from 1971 to 2014, \u201ccovered inexpertly with UV (very dark) film,\u201d Smith said. It was transferred to an acid-free manuscript box in 2014.\nAlthough a donor had expressed interest in funding the restoration, Smith said, the bishops and canons felt that the Episcopal Church in Connecticut should undertake the project.\n\u201cIt\u2019s in our interest to preserve this mitre as the first mitre in the Anglican Communion,\u201d she said, quoting Bishop Diocesan Ian T. Douglas.\nSeabury had already broken new ground with his election and consecration. He was the first Episcopal bishop outside England and the Celtic churches and, because he refused to take the oath of allegiance to the king, ended up traveling to Aberdeen, Scotland to be ordained by bishops of the Scottish Episcopal Church, who had not sworn allegiance to the King of England.\nRead more about Seabury here.\nby Pam Dawkins | Posted 9/6/2017 | Comments\nA Prayer for Change\nLoving God, You have made the whole of human life in your image;\nEach one of us shaped in love.\nYour goodness is ever-present within us all.\nBut, there is so much evil and pain in our world, it comes at us from every direction.\nTeach us how to rediscover Your love within us,\nto use that love as a force for good.\nHelp us to turn our hearts toward the world in hope,\npraying for each other, regarding each other as treasure.\nJoin us all together in prayer,\nthat we might be the light which darkness can never overcome.\nAbout this prayer:\nThis prayer has come out of the Women\u2019s Prayer Circle of St. John's Episcopal Church in North Guilford, which meets twice a month to pray for our parish, our friends, and ourselves.\nOver the last many months we have had many discussions on the state of the world we live in and how to bring God\u2019s love to this time. Out of our time together, this Prayer for Change came about.\nOnce the prayer was written, we began to share it with our larger community. We introduced it during our Sunday service and it was well-received. Many people commented on how it expressed things they were feeling and how necessary it felt to pray for each other.\nWe now have it in our own newsletter each week so people can use it for pray during the week, and have incorporated the prayer into our worship which we say as a congregation at the end of each service.\nNow, the Spirit has shown us that we are ready to send it out into the world. We will bring it to our Congregational neighbors this fall and ask that they will use it for a month each Sunday along with us, so that our two churches can create an energy for change that is ever-widening. The prayer will then be sent out from our church to others around us, so that this growing prayer energy can be a force for loving change.\nI hope it can be a blessing to you and to all of us in the Episcopal Church in Connecticut, and beyond.\n--Carol Lyons, MS, MPH, is a member of St. John's, North Guilford, Connecticut and its Women's Prayer Circle\nby Carol Lyons | Posted 7/31/2017 | Comments\nECCT hosts Appalachian Trail Magic Day\nFrom left: \"Dundee\" (aka Michael) of Austin, Texas is a section hiker (hiking a defined section) and began May 27; \"Captain Hotlegs\" (aka DJ) is a thru-hiker (hiking the entire trail) from Columbus, Ohio and started in Georgia on March 11; \"Sally Mae\" (aka Ashley) of Dayton, Ohio is a thru-hiker and started with DJ in Georgia on March 11; \"Pig-Pen\" (aka Alli Huggins, ECCT's Digital Associate on leave of absence to hike the trail) of New Haven started in Georgia on March 8; \"Foghat\" (aka David) began in Georgia March 12 but had to get off the trail in Virginia due to medical issues (he hiked with Alli for a while); and Northwest Region Missionary Eliza Marth.

        "title": "CMS Proposed Rule on Medicaid Managed Care - EveryCRSReport.com",
        "raw_content": "CMS Proposed Rule on Medicaid Managed Care\nJune 3, 2015 IF10234\nJune 3, 2015 CMS Proposed Rule on Medicaid Managed Care Prepaid Inpatient Health Plans (PIHPs) and Prepaid Ambulatory Health Plans (PAHPs) to deliver a limited benefit, such as dental coverage, for a capitated payment. What Is the Proposed Rule? On May 26, 2015, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released a proposed rule laying out the agency\u2019s plan to update the federal regulations pertaining to Medicaid managed care, under which states contract with private health insurers to provide health care to enrollees. In general, federal agencies develop regulations to implement the laws passed by the Congress. CMS has that responsibility for Medicaid and the State Children\u2019s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). This includes how states deliver services to Medicaid enrollees through risk-based managed care, the primary focus of the proposed rule. The proposed rule also addresses managed care in CHIP and third party liability (TPL) in Medicaid, but those topics are not the focus of this brief report. What Is the Current Status of the Proposed Rule? CMS is taking public comments on the proposed rule through July 27, 2015. Once the comment period closes, CMS will review the comments and make any changes before preparing a final rule for review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). OMB review, which typically lasts up to 90 days, is the last step before an agency releases a final rule. Background on Medicaid Managed Care Medicaid is a joint federal-state program that finances the delivery of primary and acute medical services, as well as long-term services and supports (LTSS), for a diverse lowincome population, including children, pregnant women, adults, individuals with disabilities, and people age 65 and older. (See CRS Report R43357, Medicaid: An Overview.) Risk-based managed care is a system for delivering care to Medicaid enrollees. It differs from the traditional fee-forservice (FFS) arrangement in how states pay providers for their services. Under FFS, states pay providers directly for the services they deliver to Medicaid enrollees. The state assumes the financial risk for health care spending under a FFS arrangement. Under comprehensive risk-based managed care, states contract with managed care organizations (MCOs), which are private health insurers. The MCOs in turn contract with networks of providers to deliver a comprehensive set of services. The state pays the MCO a fixed amount for each enrollee, called a capitation payment, and the MCO pays the providers. The MCO assumes the financial risk for spending. Federal regulations provide guidance to states on delivering care through MCOs, including requirements and standards for contracts and for setting capitation rates. Riskbased managed care also includes state contracts with Basic Medicaid Facts: Total enrollment: 59 million in FY2012, as measured on an average monthly basis. Total spending: $494 billion in FY2014 ($299 billion in federal spending). Comprehensive risk-based managed care accounts for about 50% of total enrollment (as of FY2011) and about 37% of total spending in FY2014. Background on the Proposed Rule The proposed rule is the first major federal regulation impacting Medicaid managed care since 2002. Because roughly half of all Medicaid enrollees are enrolled in comprehensive risk-based managed care, the proposed rule is likely to impact millions of Medicaid enrollees. As of September 2014, 39 states had contracted with MCOs to deliver care to their Medicaid enrollees. Some states require enrollment in managed care. Enrollment has increased over time as states have sought out managed care because it can make costs more predictable through capitation and may improve care for beneficiaries\u2014through better care coordination, for example. The proposed rule is also important for the Medicaid expansions under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA; P.L. 111-148, as amended). Many states are relying on MCOs to deliver services to individuals newly eligible under the ACA. The proposed rule will influence how states structure their managed care programs going forward. With so many people getting Medicaid services through managed care and with recent changes to Medicare Advantage and the private health insurance market (including the introduction of health insurance exchanges) as a result of the ACA, CMS is updating the regulations to make sure they are aligned with today\u2019s health care landscape. What Is Included in the Proposed Rule? The proposed rule has generated substantial interest among stakeholders, including state Medicaid programs and insurers, because it makes significant changes to the existing managed care regulations. Below is a summary of the major changes to the regulations grouped by Medicaid managed care and CHIP requirements. www.crs.gov | 7-5700 CMS Proposed Rule on Medicaid Managed Care Medicaid Managed Care Alignment with Other Health Coverage Programs CMS has proposed changes to the Medicaid managed care regulations to better align them with the regulations established under the ACA that are applicable to private insurers. For example, the proposed rule applies a minimum medical loss ratio (MLR) of 85% to Medicaid to ensure that capitation rates are actuarially sound and \u201cbased on reasonable expenditures on covered services\u201d for enrollees. The minimum MLR refers to the amount of premium revenue that a health plan spends on the delivery of care or on improving the quality of care as opposed to administrative costs or profits. CMS chose 85% as the threshold because it is the standard for Medicare Advantage and for large employers in the private market. Setting Actuarially Sound Capitation Rates The proposed rule establishes standards that states must meet in setting their capitation rates and that CMS will apply during the federal review and approval process. These standards would ensure that the rates are actuarially sound. The Code of Federal Regulations, at 438.6(c)(i), defines actuarially sound capitation rates as rates that (1) have been developed in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices, (2) are appropriate for the populations covered and the services to be provided, and (3) have been certified by qualified actuaries. As part of setting actuarially sound rates, the proposed rule also requires that states consider the historical and projected MLR of the MCO when setting its capitation rate. Beneficiary Protections The proposed rule establishes new beneficiary protections, including a beneficiary support system that is required to provide managed care enrollees with assistance in understanding the health plan materials and options available when enrolling in managed care. This new system includes standards providing for \u201cchoice counseling\u201d so that enrollees can get assistance in choosing health plans. Managed Long-Term Services and Supports Existing federal law does not generally permit states to enroll individuals needing LTSS (such as nursing home care and home health care) into managed care. However, states can do so through waivers of federal law. Many states have obtained approval from CMS to implement Section 1915(b) and Section 1115 demonstration projects to begin using managed LTSS (MLTSS) to deliver services to individuals with complex health care needs. The proposed rule establishes regulations for enrolling the LTSS population in managed care. It codifies principles that CMS published in May 2013 based on lessons learned from the state demonstrations. The principles include \u201cstakeholder engagement\u201d to ensure that stakeholders such as beneficiaries and providers are involved in the \u201cmonitoring and oversight\u201d of the program. The proposed rule is likely to be heavily scrutinized as more and more states are considering MLTSS to manage costs and quality of care for this population. Network Adequacy Network adequacy refers to whether or not an MCO, PIHP, or PAHP \u201cadequately makes services accessible and available to enrollees.\u201d The proposed rule establishes minimum standards for network adequacy for medical services and MLTSS. For example, the standards should ensure \u201congoing state assessment and certification of MCO, PIHP and PAHP networks,\u201d and the state must establish network adequacy standards for specific provider types. Quality The proposed rule requires that states establish a comprehensive quality strategy to measure performance and improve quality of care for their Medicaid programs. It also requires that states establish a \u201cMedicaid managed care quality rating system\u201d to include information on performance for each MCO, PIHP, and PAHP. The system is designed to be consistent with Medicare Advantage and the qualified health plans established under the ACA. Data Encounter data is a key component of CMS\u2019s oversight of state Medicaid programs. The proposed rule defines enrollee encounter data as \u201cinformation relating to the receipt of any item(s) or service(s) by an enrollee under a contract between a state and an MCO, PIHP, or PAHP\u201d subject to certain standards. It establishes contract standards that define encounter data \u201csubmission and maintenance standards\u201d for MCOs, PIHPs, and PAHPs. The rule proposes that federal Medicaid matching payments not be available to states that do not meet the established benchmarks for \u201caccuracy, completeness, and timeliness\u201d of data submitted to CMS. CHIP CHIP is a means-tested program that provides health coverage to targeted low-income children and pregnant women in families that have income above Medicaid levels but have no health insurance. (See CRS Report R43627, State Children\u2019s Health Insurance Program: An Overview.) The proposed rule seeks to align CHIP managed care with Medicaid and the health insurance exchanges where appropriate. For example, it establishes an MLR standard of 85% and codifies managed care provisions established for CHIP in the Children\u2019s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009 (P.L. 111-3).

        "raw_content": "Facebook Unveil New Tool to Extend Web Presence\nAt the annual Facebook conference for developers, Facebook has revealed its new features to extend its online presence and to maintain its relationship with recent developers of the popular social networking site. Facebook has also revealed its new design as well as \u201ca wave of social Web sites built on top of the information users give to social networks.\u201d\nMore importantly, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook\u2019s chief executive, believes that the future idea of social networking sites is to focus on the decentralisation of social applications. One of these demonstrated is the \u201cFacebook Connect\u201d in which other sites can integrate part of Facebook\u2019s service, where users are asked for their Facebook login details instead of creating an account on the site to verify their identity.\nIn regards to the popular applications, Facebook will concentrate on having more meaningful applications rather than applications that clog up the site. Applications will have to meet a criteria of being not only secure but also trustworthy.\nFor further details on the future of Facebook, please read the New York Times article.",

        "raw_content": "If you\u2019ve ever come to me for a session then you\u2019ve met my dog, Paloma. I bring my dog in my office when I see clients who are working with ailments for their pets. We should think and talk to our veterinarians about using medical cannabis for pets.\nPets are very emotional for us. When our pets are sick, it\u2019s very hard for us.\nI never want to defy doctors or veterinarians. It\u2019s really important that they are onboard and understand how to use cannabis as medicine. My goal as a cannabis consultant is reduce symptoms, increase quality of life, and reduce medications that might be harmful.\nOpiates are given to pets. Drugs can be quite harsh for pets, so my goal would be using cannabis as a more nontoxic first line of defense or for reduction of meds. If we understand what ailment our pet is going through and be connected to our pet\u2019s healing, then it brings us closer to them. If we\u2019re just relying on our veterinarian to solve all our pet\u2019s problems, then that disconnects us from their healing.\nAnimals are the heroes of the cannabis world because they have experienced all the research testing. All doctors, scientists, and researchers who test cannabis first must do animal trials. Famously, Rhesus monkeys in Israel were tested with huge amounts of THC (the active ingredient in cannabis) to determine the amount that could go into an animal before causing a fatality. They wanted to find the toxic amount of cannabis.\nI would never suggest that you deliver huge amounts of THC to a pet. If an animal is very uncomfortable and unable to drink water, they can get dangerously dehydrated. But these researchers were never actually able to kill the Rhesus monkeys. The key with THC and CBD is to deliver the right amount so that the pet has reduction of symptoms.\nBeing Both Conservative and Compassionate\nIf you\u2019re a pet owner who wants to explore cannabis, the first step I recommend is to talk to your veterinarian. Often, veterinarians are tuned in to things like CBD use for pets. And CBD is the most conservative approach, right? You can deliver CBD to a pet and it isn\u2019t going to have a psychoactive experience.\nYou can deliver enough that they can get quite sedated, but using CBD is really about starting with the smallest dose first. CBD often comes in an oil form, so you can put just one drop on the pet\u2019s kibble. You can even take something like bacon grease that attracts the pet and mix it with CBD oil.\nI don\u2019t like edibles for humans or pets unless you really know what you\u2019re doing. Humans and pets tend to overeat them and take too much THC. Keep cannabis in its natural oil form, then the pet is more likely to get the appropriate dose. That\u2019s how I sell CBD.\nFind People to Help You with Cannabis\nIf you\u2019re in a state where you can go in a dispensary and get cannabis products, I also recommend going to a consultant and actually know who\u2019s giving you the product. That\u2019s what I do. I am somebody you can continually contact to learn about what your pet or human patient needs from cannabinoids.\nIt\u2019s very challenging to work with cannabinoids. You\u2019re working with the consciousness of the person or pet. As a pet owner, you have to observe what your pet is experiencing. Paloma had surgery when she was a puppy and we went through all the proper protocols \u2013 we went to the veterinarian, they put her out, she had surgery, we brought her back home, and we were given a bottle of prescription opiates.\nI went through the protocol. I\u2019m very conservative.\nI always believe that the practitioner, doctor, or veterinarian is doing the right thing. But I knew I wanted to reduce those opiates as much as possible.\nAt the end of surgery when I knew that she was recovering, I gave her a small dose of a THC tincture so that I could reduce the opiates she was taking. That was a conservative approach. I\u2019ve also had clients who come in with dogs who have ailments such as arthritis. At the end of their life it\u2019s very difficult to give very old pets tons of medication. The animal might not be active or responding to medication very well. CBD is something you can gradually introduce into the mix.\nI suggest that they start with a single milligram of CBD and do it every day for five days. See if you can observe the results. Over time, this might be increased mobility, better sleeping habits, and reduced anxiety. The cannabinoids go into the pet\u2019s endo-cannabinoid system just like they would with humans. Introducing CBD can actually reduce the intensity of the pet\u2019s nervous system. Opiates and some of the harsher pharmaceutical medications for pets can cause unwanted side effects such as constipation, anxiety, and sleeplessness.\nThe goal is reducing symptoms, unwanted medication, and increasing quality of life by consulting with your veterinarian, using cannabinoids, connecting with your pet, and working with a cannabis practitioner who understands. That\u2019s what we\u2019re trying to do with our pet.\nAcknowledging Hang-ups to Cannabis\nThe cannabis high is something that a lot of people worry about. They say, \"It's\u2026\nprevious post: Understanding Weed\u2019s Past for our Present Health\nnext post: Cannabis for Sleep",

        "raw_content": "A Simple Piece Of Plastic Could Slash Pancreatic Cancer Death Rates\nWhy send a toxic drug through the whole body when you can treat a specific organ?\nThis flexible piece of plastic could target life-saving drugs right to the tumor site.\nPancreatic cancer is relatively rare\u2013it\u2019s the third-leading cause of cancer death. It\u2019s what killed Steve Jobs, Patrick Swayze, and Sally Ride.\nThe pancreas is located in the middle of a person\u2019s belly, surrounded by other vital organs like the liver and stomach. This both makes it extremely hard for surgeons to remove the tumor and easier for it to metastasize and spread. Chemotherapy\u2013which sends toxic drugs throughout the body to reach the tumor site\u2013is still often the only option, and it\u2019s not even very effective because pancreatic tumors have few blood vessels to take up the drugs. Survival rates have barely improved in 40 years.\n\u201cTo me, it seems very counterintuitive to have a whole body treatment to target a specific organ,\u201d says Laura Indolfi, a researcher at the Harvard-MIT Biomedical Engineering Center and Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center, and now CEO of a new biotech startup, PanTher Therapeutics.\nIndolfi has developed a simple new device to deliver drugs straight to the pancreatic tumor, bypassing the rest of the body. It\u2019s a flexible piece of plastic that looks a little like Band-Aid. Surgeons can simply place it directly top of the tumor, parachuting the drugs right to their destination via a catheter\u2013making them more effective and less destructive to the rest of the body.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a very engineering way to solve the medical problem,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s not science-fiction innovation.\u201d\nSo far, the device has only been tested on mice which were implanted with tumors from real patients at Massachusetts General Hospital. From the animal results, she says that after one month of treatment, the mice tumors were 12 times smaller than in mice that were treated with drugs through their blood vessels. PanTher Therapeutics is now preparing a submission to the FDA to start the initial safety testing in people.\nShe hopes that FDA approval will be relatively swift, since the drug itself is already on the market, and suggests it could be available to patients within five years. Eventually, she says, PanTher Therapeutics could partner with pharmaceutical companies to retest drugs that failed clinical trials because they were too toxic to patients through traditional delivery methods.",

        "raw_content": "Remembering struggles past and present\nBY SUSAN PARES, MEMBER OF THE FAWCETT SOCIETY\nJuly is an important month in the Fawcett calendar. It\u2019s when Fawcett members come together to commemorate the woman who has given her name to the Society: Millicent Garrett Fawcett (pictured above).\nMillicent Fawcett was part of the feminist activity that began in 1866 with the first petition to Parliament for female suffrage. From 1907 she led the non-militant wing of the campaign to give women the vote. Partial voting rights came in 1918 and the full franchise in 1928. It was a protracted struggle but happily she lived long enough to see women given the full right to vote on 2 July 1928.\nFor me, it\u2019s an important date and Millicent is an important woman. There\u2019s so much to admire in her and those early suffragists: their tenacity, their commitment, their belief in non-militant tactics. Their perseverance and readiness for hard slog are still needed today.\nFor many years Fawcett has commemorated Millicent at a ceremony held usually in Westminster Abbey at the memorial to Millicent and her husband Henry. In 2008, Fawcett asked the South London Fawcett Group, one of the local London branches, to arrange the event and we have done so ever since.\nSomehow I found myself setting up the contacts, while other members have publicised the ceremony, ordered the wreath that is always laid or organised a meal afterwards. It\u2019s an occasion to meet our own local group members and other Fawcett people. Personally it\u2019s a moment to reflect on all those who laboured so hard and endured so many setbacks and opprobrium to secure women the vote and a time to enjoy the sense of solidarity with like-minded people.\nThe struggle to secure equality and justice for women continues. It was, and still is, hard work. Millicent was committed to the grind and never gave up. It\u2019s only right we should remember her at her memorial in Westminster Abbey. Join us there on 2 July.\nThe event takes place at 6pm on Thursday 2 July 2015 in St George\u2019s Chapel, Westminster Abbey. More details\nSusan Pares is a long-time member of Fawcett and active in South London Fawcett Group",

        "raw_content": "Vice Chairman Donald L. Kohn\nAt the Cato Institute's Shadow Open Market Committee Meeting, Washington, D.C.\nI am pleased to be on this panel on exiting from the unusual policies the Federal Reserve and other central banks have put in place to ameliorate the effects of the financial turmoil of the past two years. Chairman Bernanke has made a concerted effort to explain the thinking of the Federal Reserve in this regard, because it is so important that the public understand we have the means to meet our objectives of fostering stable prices and high employment. I will briefly underline some aspects of the Federal Reserve's framework for exiting that I believe to be especially critical to that understanding.1\nConditions for Exit\nIn its most important aspects, the decision about when to begin exiting from the unusual policies is not materially different from any decision to start tightening monetary policy. We will need to begin to remove the extraordinary degree of accommodation in its various dimensions when we judge that exiting from the current stance of policy will be necessary to preserve price stability as the economy returns to higher levels of resource utilization. Because it takes people time to adjust their spending and pricing decisions in response to a change in interest rates or other aspects of financial conditions, like other monetary policy decisions, that judgment will need to be based on a forecast of economic developments, not on current conditions. So we must begin to withdraw accommodation well before aggregate spending threatens to press against potential supply, and well before inflation as well as inflation expectations rise above levels consistent with price stability.\nI cannot give you a small list of variables that will trigger an exit; as always, our forecasts will use all available sources of information. And I can't predict how rapidly we will have to raise short-term interest rates from around zero or remove other forms of accommodation; that too depends on how the economy seems to be recovering and the outlook for inflation. Clearly, the present degree of accommodation--as gauged by nominal and real short-term interest rates and the size of our balance sheet--is extraordinary, and we will have to take account of how that is influencing spending and inflation expectations when deciding when and how fast to tighten.\nTools for Exit\nWe have the framework to exit from these policies when we need to do so. And the tools at our disposal will allow us to do so at the pace and in the sequence we judge will best meet our objectives.\nMost importantly, our ability to pay interest on reserves will enable us to raise short-term interest rates even while the quantity of assets we hold is still quite elevated and while the reserve base of the banking system is extraordinarily high. The opportunity for banks to earn interest on a highly liquid risk-free deposit at the Federal Reserve should put a reasonably firm floor under short-term rates, including the federal funds rate. To date, that floor has been somewhat soft, perhaps because not all participants in the federal funds market can hold deposits at the Federal Reserve, and because banks have been reluctant to allocate the needed capital to arbitrage a few basis points. But I am confident that when we begin to raise our deposit rate, it will put upward pressure on the rates on competing assets, increasing actual and expected short-term interest rates with the usual types of effects on other interest rates and asset prices. As banks become more comfortable with their capital levels, they will be more willing to undertake the arbitrage to tighten the link between the rate on deposits and short-term market interest rates.\nStill, draining reserves at some point also will be an aspect of exiting. The large volume of reserves is contributing to the loose relationship of our deposit rate and market rates. In addition, although to date the high volume of reserves evidently has not increased bank lending or reduced spreads of rates on bank loans or other assets relative to, say, Treasury rates, it could begin to do so if banks start to perceive the risk-adjusted returns on loans as superior to our deposit rate. An increase in lending and narrowing of spreads on bank loans is a necessary and desirable aspect of the return to better-functioning markets and intermediation to promote economic growth. But spreads eventually could become narrower than what would be consistent with underlying risk, and lending could grow more quickly than appropriate for price stability if very high levels of reserves remain in place. We are developing new techniques for draining reserves, including reverse repurchase agreements against mortgage-backed securities and time deposits for banks at the Federal Reserve. And, of course, we retain the option to sell securities from our portfolio on an outright basis. The range of tools will permit us to drain large volumes of reserves if necessary to achieve the policy stance that fosters our macroeconomic objectives.\nOur lending programs were designed to wind themselves down as market conditions improve, and they are doing so. When conditions are no longer unusual and exigent, those programs not focused on depository institutions will be terminated, and, with a few exceptions such as the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, they will leave no residual on our balance sheet.2\nThe long-term securities we are buying will not run off so rapidly. But the effects of our holdings of mortgage-backed and agency securities on spreads nonetheless should decline even if they remain on our balance sheet. For one, some of the spread compression may result from the flow of our purchases, as well as our stock of holdings, and as we already announced, we will be tapering down our purchases. Moreover, the stock of assets we own will become an ever smaller share of a growing market. Finally, as confidence returns, asset demands will become less focused on particular classes of highly safe and liquid assets and more sensitive to relative interest rates, and private participants will arbitrage away at least some of any remaining spread distortions. Nonetheless, if, in the course of removing accommodation, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) perceives spreads to be distorted or longer-term interest rates to be not responding appropriately, it could consider sales of these assets.\nCommunication about Exit\nThe unusual nature of our actions and the uncertainty about when and how they will be unwound suggest an even greater payoff than usual from being as clear as possible in our communications with the public. I already noted the importance of the public's understanding that we can and will exit from these policies when that is necessary to achieve our objectives for stable prices and maximum employment. In addition, we will need to explain especially carefully--in our policy announcements, the minutes of our meetings, and our quarterly forecasts--the evolution of our assessment of the economic situation and the risks associated with achieving our goals. Finally, we will need to be sure our rate guidance evolves along with our assessment of the probability that the exit is drawing closer.\nAlthough economic conditions have apparently begun to improve--partly in response to the extraordinary steps the Federal Reserve and other authorities have taken--resource utilization is quite low, inflation is subdued, and continuing restraints on credit are likely to constrain the speed of recovery. For that reason, as the FOMC stated last week, exceptionally low interest rates are likely to be warranted for an extended period. Given the highly unusual economic and financial circumstances, judging when the time is appropriate to remove policy accommodation, and then calibrating that removal, will be challenging. Still, we need to be ready to take the necessary actions when the time comes, and we will be.\n1.

        "raw_content": "How The Judicial System Has Failed The Women Of India\nby Deepa Suryanarayan | April 17, 2018, 1:41 PM IST\nAll rape trials in India are conducted in-camera. \u201cIn an in-camera trial, the entire trial takes place inside a courtroom to which access to people is restricted. Access is allowed only to people related to the trial,\u201d explains Rahul Thakur, advocate, who has filed a PIL against revealing all the details to the media before the charge sheet is filed. These would include the magistrate, the survivor (who is referred to as the prosecutrix or Miss X in all court documents), the accused, their lawyers (if there is more than one accused), witnesses, if available, police officials involved in the investigation, court clerk and social worker. \u201cThe survivor is also allowed to shield herself from the accused (by standing behind a curtain)\u2014the reason for this is to prevent her from undergoing further trauma on coming face to face with the accused,\u201d he explains. Triveni Acharya, president, Rescue Foundation, agrees that the in-camera trial is a good idea. \u201cIn-camera trials are extremely beneficial for rape survivors because they are there to ensure privacy. I have observed that girls who have undergone this kind of trauma are embarrassed and confused in the courtroom. Sometimes they even change their statements because they are scared to put their points across clearly.\u201d Criminal lawyer Seema Adate adds, \u201cIf the girl is not in the city or state where the trial is taking place, she can even attend via video conferencing.\u201d\nAn in-camera trial can't fix this\nIn an ideal world, an in-camera trial doesn\u2019t just help the survivor but also speeds up the legal process and ensures that justice is served with minimal disruption of the life of the survivor. However, in India, the manner in which rape trials are conducted is a matter of grave concern on many levels that are not addressed or fixed by an in-camera trial.\nBreach of privacy is a huge concern. An in-camera trial doesn\u2019t necessarily ensure that the identity of the accused is withheld. The trial itself is conducted in a courtroom, and not in a special ante chamber, which means that there is a sizeable number of people involved in the case present. The details of the rape case, such as the timing and the court room, are put up on the notice board along with other cases. Even a small thoughtful move like ensuring there\u2019s a separate entrance for the survivor so that she doesn\u2019t have to meet other people when she goes to court can go a long way in making her feel at ease\u2014but the system isn\u2019t built to be gender sensitive.\n\u201cHow can you expect gender sensitivity, when just one per cent of the judiciary is female? And even among those women, very few choose to practise criminal law,\u201d points out Rahul. \u201cIn Pratiksha Baxi\u2019s book Public Secrets Of Law: Rape Trials In India, she describes the scenario in detail,\u201d says Kavita Krishnan, secretary of the All India Progressive Women\u2019s Association. \u201cIn an in-camera trial, the survivor is often the only woman in a room full of men. Even if all of them are not hostile towards her, the very fact that they are laughing, joking and seemingly comfortable with each other alienates her. Also, the in-camera trial is supposed to help protect the identity of the survivor as well as ensure that the details divulged in court are not leaked outside. And yet, all of the details find their way to the media, through \u2018sources\u2019,\u201d she says.\nNot so private, after all\nAt the age of 19, Seema* was gang-raped by four of her classmates. When Seema and her parents decided to seek justice, they had no idea what a rape trial would entail. Seema broke down repeatedly during her trial, where she had to face the accused every day and answer questions that made her relive her trauma. Seema, her mother and a social worker were the only three women in the courtroom. Surrounded by men\u2014the judge, the lawyers and the accused\u2014Seema felt alienated and humiliated repeatedly. Her image was splashed on television\u2014and although it was blurred, the images of those accompanying her were not, making her identity easy to guess. It became impossible for the young girl to go back to her college and focus on her studies. Seema\u2019s parents were ostracised. Is it any surprise then that Seema and her entire family turned hostile? Seema went on to try to finish her education in another city, reveals the social activist who helped the family through the trial.\nJustice delayed endlessly\nThe biggest problem, say social activists, is the fact that an already traumatic trial is prolonged through repeated adjournments, often for trivial reasons concocted by the defence lawyers. And this is why rape survivors are reluctant to approach the police and the courts. A rape trial can be conducted and finished in just seven days, says Rahul, provided there are no other pending cases in court, which, is of course, never the case. \u201cHowever, post the Delhi gang-rape, there has been a sea change in the way the judicial system deals with rape cases and dispenses justice.\u201d\nEquality for all sexes\nA noticeable gap in Indian law is that there is no protection accorded to transgender persons or men against sexual violence. Particularly in situations of custody, such as police stations, jails, caste atrocities, men and people from the transgender community are subjected to heinous violence and abuse. It is high time the law addressed this.\nWaking up to marital rape\nThe expanded definition of rape in our law acknowledges the woman\u2019s right to bodily integrity. And yet, it excludes marital rape from the list of crimes. This is an incongruity that the law must address.\nLiving up to our laws\nVrinda Grover says this is the time to strike out for real change.\nVrinda is a lawyer, researcher, and human rights and women\u2019s rights activist based in New Delhi. As a lawyer, Vrinda has appeared in landmark human rights cases and represented many women and child survivors of domestic and sexual violence. She has also contributed to the drafting of laws, including the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013.\nViolence against women is the silent genocide taking place in India. We have a long history of pervasive sexual violence across regions, class and caste. Post the December 2012 Delhi gang-rape, there has been a visible shift in the attitude of women. Women no longer believe that they invite sexual violence upon themselves. Instead, they are speaking up and complaining to the authorities. And with the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013, we have managed to get the attention of the Centre and the state governments too. No wonder then, that there is a backlash, and claims that false cases are being filed\u2014news of which, of course, people with an agenda are interested in blowing out of proportion. It is important to not feed this kind of discourse. We need to focus on the challenges and on how we can better implement rape laws in the country.\nCourts that care\nWe are dealing with a situation where there is pervasive sexual violence, from sexual harassment to rape, across the country. However, women are now coming forward and demanding justice. It is the responsibility of the judicial system to ensure justice, in a manner that is dignified and does not retraumatise them or abandon them. Unfortunately, now that the new law for rape is codified, the government and states think that their job is over. Whereas the fact is, their job has just begun. We have a very hostile legal system. There is no one to help a survivor navigate this quagmire. Despite this, we find that women are able to depose in court, when they receive support, from family, friends or NGOs. But this support is not institutionalised and so many rape survivors have to cope with the system alone.\nThe National Legal Services Authority (NALSA), which works under the direct supervision of the Supreme Court, has a paralegal volunteer scheme to assist vulnerable and marginalised sections access justice. This system needs to be strengthened\u2014 the paralegals must be accredited and paid a salary, not just a token honorarium. Paralegals can be the crucial link that holds the survivor\u2019s hand in her journey through the criminal justice system.\nThen there is the matter of the environment inside the courtroom\u2014 the rape survivor should be able to testify without fear or shame. Sporadically, efforts are made in this direction. For instance, I represented the Swiss tourist who was gang-raped in Datia, MP, in 2013, where the legal system responded promptly and sensitively. As the rape survivor was scared to return to Datia to give evidence, a judicial officer in Delhi was appointed as a Commission to record her testimony and she identified the accused through video conferencing, in a room constituted as a court in Delhi. While complying with fair trial requirements, she was treated with care. All these arrangements are in compliance with the law. Why is it that these legal mechanisms are not available for ordinary women and only brought in during extraordinary circumstances? We know that even in the Mumbai Shakti Mills gang-rape case, the gang-rape survivor had requested for video conferencing. She was clearly emotionally too fragile to confront the accused men. So why wasn\u2019t she given this legal option?\nNixing the two-finger test\nAccording to the Supreme Court and the guidelines issued by the Union Ministry of Health And Family Welfare, the two-finger test is unlawful and declared irrelevant to trial. And yet, I find that the test continues with doctors recording that \u201cthe woman is habituated to sexual intercourse\u201d. Recently, I was in Bhubaneshwar, Odisha, conducting a workshop with government doctors and they disclosed that it is the police officers who requisition this test asking for the information. Clearly there is an urgent need for the union ministry guidelines to be adopted by each state.\nBringing justice up to speed\nThe new Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013, asks for the setting up of fast-track courts in the country and states that a rape trial must be completed in two months. But in practice, delays are endemic in all cases including rape trials. Who does the delay benefit? Obviously the accused, in such cases. Unless the number of trial courts and judicial officers is increased, the rule on fast-track courts is a non-starter. And this requires the government to increase budgetary allocations to the judicial system.\nProtecting witnesses\nThe Law Commission report and repeated Supreme Court judgments have said that there should be a Victim-Witness Protection Programme in India. But in reality, the victim-witness has to fend for herself. Let us take the example of the Muzaffarnagar communal violence in September 2013. During the riots, six Muslim women were gang-raped in Fugana village. Their entire family targeted, they were forced to flee their ancestral village and relocate to a new ghetto in rural UP. Even in this difficult circumstance, they lodged an FIR and gave statements to the police. But with no witness protection programme in place, they face daily threats and intimidation from the accused who are socially, economically and politically influential. We have filed a dozen complaints with the police about these threats. The Supreme Court has deputed two police constables for their safety. Witness protection, however, cannot be reduced to two constables. Much more comprehensive measures need to be envisaged.\nFreedom from caste and conflict\nThe rape of Dalit women is the most systemic violation in the country. And here, the accused enjoy absolute impunity, due to their caste, class and social privileges reinforced by political patronage. Unless you challenge this impunity, sexual violence will continue. And I don\u2019t see the government taking any steps to curb this. This is evident in conflict areas, whether it is Kashmir, the northeast or Chattisgarh. Wherever there is militarisation, sexual violence against women escalates.\nWhether it is the exercise of male privilege or the entitlement that dominant communities and castes accord to themselves over women\u2019s bodies; or it is the \u2018boys will be boys\u2019 attitude, or prioritisation of the morale of the armed forces over the freedom and dignity of women\u2014you cannot challenge these selectively. You have to raise your voice against all these violations at the same time. Bias, contempt and prejudice stalk women from the police station to the court room. Let us recognise this institutional bias and then put in measures to remedy it. Right now, there is a determination in the people, particularly among women. It is a very important moment for change, and that\u2019s where hope lies.\nHow the lies we believe make rape culture possible\nHighlights from the Femina Wedding Show, Coimbatore",

        "title": "\ufeff Tonsillitis - First Health Guide",
        "raw_content": "Tonsillitis is an inflammation of the tonsils and occurs mainly in children. It\u2019s very contagious. The tonsils are two glands in the throat and are part of the lymph node system, which combats infections in the body. When too many pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, enter the body, the tonsils themselves get inflamed and swollen.\nAn inflammation of the tonsils is usually the result of a viral infection, but can also be caused by bacteria. Bacterial tonsillitis is often caused by streptococci. A fungal infection may also lead to tonsillitis.\nViruses and streptococcal bacteria spread through the air by coughing, sneezing or talking. A person can get infected by direct contact with mucus from the nose or throat of an infected person. Infection occurs primarily when the circumstances for the spread of these pathogens are favorable, for example in places where large groups of people are densely packed, with inadequate ventilation. After infection, it takes one to three days before the first symptoms occur.\nThe main symptoms of tonsillitis are obviously the inflamed tonsils themselves. This can be recognized by some sort of white layer over the tonsils. Other signs and symptoms include:\nPersistent or recurrent colds.\nOther symptoms that may occur as a result of tonsillitis are: poor sleeping, snoring, excessive breathing through the mouth and repeated ear infections.\nTonsillitis in a child is found when the child is sick and no longer wants to eat. The throat hurts, especially while swallowing. The child seems somewhat flu-like.\nThe doctor may want to look at the tonsils and sees generally soon if they are inflamed. If necessary, examination can be done with a smear from the throat. This in order to determine the diagnosis with certainty.\nThe general practitioner can, if necessary, prescribe antibiotics. In case of chronic tonsillitis, the tonsils are often inflamed. Scars arise, which make it harder to treat in a subsequent attack. When this is the case or if the tonsillitis causes complications, it may be better to surgically remove the tonsils. This is done only when no other solution can be found, because the tonsils are part of the immune system of the body.\nThe surgical technique that is used, varies in adults and children. In children, cutting the tonsils is a commonly used method. Here, the tonsils are entirely removed with one single movement. In adults, tonsils are much firmer attached than in children, thus cutting is not possible. Instead, the tonsils are peeled. Peeling means that the tonsils are gradually detached from the bottom tissue layer. Removing tonsils in adulthood generally causes more and longer pain than at young age.\nIn most cases, tonsillitis can heal properly and the condition disappears in seven to ten days. Bacterial infections tend to respond positively to treatment with antibiotics. The symptoms of tonsillitis usually reduce in two to three days after start of the treatment. Surgical removal of the tonsils is usually successful.\nA sore throat can be relieved by drinking cold fluids or eating a popsicle.\nSoft food is less painful than solid food.\nSome people benefit from regular gargling with warm salt water.\nTake sufficient rest.\nIf the patient has a lot of trouble, the symptoms can be suppressed by painkillers, such as paracetamol.\nChildren with tonsillitis may absolutely take no asperine-like medicines, because that combination can cause a serious disease, Reye\u2019s syndrome.\nThe term \u2018tonsillitis\u2019 is derived from the Latin word tonsil (throat tonsil). The suffix -itis indicates that it is an inflammation.\nThe prevalence of tonsillitis is 1.2%.\nThroat disease, Upper respiratory disease",

They taught me the importance of leaving the world a better place than when you arrived. They instilled a belief that every day should be working toward that goal. Being a physician allows me to impact people\u2019s lives directly and personally, which will hopefully enrich their world in a meaningful and positive way.\nA: Urology is a surgical field of medicine that treats disorders and diseases of the male and female genitourinary tract and also encompasses male reproductive health. We provide surgical and non-surgical management of bladder, kidney and prostate cancers, as well as non-malignant conditions such as kidney stones, prostatic enlargement, urinary incontinence, and erectile dysfunction.\nA: The reason I enjoy getting up in the morning and going to work is the patients I get to work with. I love interacting with people and making a difference where I can. When it comes to urology, the topics of discussion can be sensitive and sometimes embarrassing. I take pride in creating an atmosphere where people are comfortable sharing these very personal matters. It\u2019s a privilege to take care of people in their time of need and I try to never forget that.\nA: Early in medical school I found that I loved surgery because of the ability to work with my hands and see the direct results of my work. A friend of mine suggested I do an elective rotation in urology and I was hooked. Not only were the surgeries diverse and challenging, but the results were striking. The procedures and care taken along the journey have the ability to give an individual their life back in a meaningful way. It can transform a person from being embarrassed and reclusive, to being empowered and confident again.\nSurgical technology and endoscopic techniques have advanced considerably over the past decade, creating numerous minimally invasive options where previously there were few. Beyond surgical technology, we have made great strides in improving our understanding of and screening methods for prostate cancer. Biomarker technology has increased the effectiveness of screening and detection of clinically-significant prostate cancer. These innovations will pay dividends in the future as we\u2019re able to better counsel our patients and target our therapies where they are needed the most.\nA: I like to think of the patients and myself as a team working together to improve their health. In my experience, patients who are active participants in the decision-making process often have improved outcomes and satisfaction. Bring questions. I will always make time to answer them. Together, we\u2019ll make a winning team for your health.\nName: Shiv B Patel, MD\nWhere you\u2019re based: I am a urologist based at Health First Medical Group\u2019s Gateway Drive location and at Health First\u2019s Holmes Regional Medical Center.\nBachelor of Science in Biology from Duke University \u201907 (Durham, NC)\nMedical Doctorate from Mount Sinai School of Medicine \u201911 (New York, NY)\nGeneral Surgery Internship at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center (Burlington, MA) \u201813\nUrology Residency at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center \u201917 (Burlington, MA)\nHealth First Medical Group, 1223 Gateway Dr., Suite 2A, Melbourne, FL 32901\nOn the Web: www.myHFMG.com\nRead or Share this story: http://on.flatoday.com/2yF4e9L",

        "title": "Hiding Grant\u2019s Tomb in Plain Sight | flyingpenguin",
        "raw_content": "Hiding Grant\u2019s Tomb in Plain Sight\nOne of John Oliver\u2019s Last Week Tonight episodes has a humorous albeit sad explanation of the pro-slavery Americans who even to this day want to continue their \u201ctraditions\u201d\nJust the fact that John Oliver has pulled the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) into his story shows how mainstream this history analysis has become, and deservedly. The SPLC has done an amazing job highlighting the falseness of \u201cheritage\u201d claims.\nThe Civil War ended 153 years ago. The Confederacy, as Mitch Landrieu said, was on the wrong side of humanity. Our public entities should no longer play a role in distorting history by honoring a secessionist government that waged war against the United States to preserve white supremacy and the enslavement of millions of people.\nIt\u2019s past time for the South \u2013 and the rest of the nation \u2013 to bury the myth of the Lost Cause once and for all.\nTrue. Bury the myth. It makes sense that pro-slavery white supremacist distortion of history must stop. That means America needs to stop giving honors to domestic terrorists who enslaved millions and murdered hundreds of thousands of Americans.\nHowever, I also believe there is an ingredient missing to the story. Even historians tend to overlook an important detail: America needs to restore monument honors to those who defeated the domestic terrorists, because these heros have been under attack for at least 130 years.\nThere may be no better example than Grant\u2019s \u201cLet Us Have Peace\u201d Tomb.\nIn case you don\u2019t get the reference, \u201cLet Us Have Peace\u201d was the concluding line of Grant\u2019s 1868 acceptance letter to become President of the US. It\u2019s hovering impressively over the entrance to his Tomb.\nAnd in case you don\u2019t remember that campaign phrase emphasizing peace and civility helped Grant win the Presidential contest by a landslide. At the polls he totally crushed Seymour\u2019s appalling 1868 campaign motto: \u201cThis is a White Man\u2019s Country. Let White Men Rule\u201d\nSo, I think some perspective is needed here. This is a civil rights hero memorial. \u201cLet Us Have Peace\u201d is a huge engraving memorializing his dedication to human rights, bordered by larger-than-life statues, and I have zoomed in significantly in the above picture. It is hard to overstate the massively massive size of this monument to Grant\u2019s civil rights legacy.\nHere\u2019s what it looks like when standing at the base of entrance steps.\nCrazy big, right?\nSo where is this gargantuan mausoleum, the largest tomb in North America, you ask?\nExactly. While Lincoln\u2019s Memorial sees approximately 6 million people annually, guess how many visit Grant every year\u2026. Nobody seems to know because who can even find it?\nPro tip: Grant\u2019s Tomb sits in New York City overlooking the Hudson River. It is so large the Statue of Liberty can fit inside it. However few people if anyone around can tell you where it is. Ask any student of Columbia, present or past, to tell you where Grant\u2019s Tomb is. They have no idea their school is only blocks away.\nHow is this possible? Why would a massive memorial to America\u2019s best General and arguably top three best President (behind only Washington and Lincoln) in a huge city be so unknown?\nThe answer is simple. The Confederacy. Historians are only just beginning to talk about a concerted effort by white supremacists in America to intentionally obscure Grant and falsely tarnish his reputation.\nThis is the other part of the idiotic revisionist movement that erected statues of that traitor Lee; they also worked to diminish Grant.\nWhen the great monument to Grant was erected, the design specified an empty space. As you find with other monuments, it was meant to be set out overlooking a wide open expanse. Think of how the Lincoln memorial sits at the end of a giant reflecting pool. Grant\u2019s Tomb had a similarly impressive hill-top setup as you can see in this photo from 1900.\nApparently it could be seen for many miles around. And that was the point. Grant was one of the most popular men in the world when he died. His funeral was legendary with over a million people honoring him. Years later when his tomb was completed, his amazing popularity continued.\nApproximately 90,000 people from around the world donated over $600,000 towards the construction of Grant\u2019s Tomb. This was the largest public fundraising effort ever at that time. Designed by architect John Duncan, the granite and marble structure was completed in 1897 and remains the largest mausoleum in North America. Over one million people attended the parade and dedication ceremony of Grant\u2019s Tomb on April 27, 1897.\nThink about those numbers. Millions of people in 1897 means basically the entire population of NYC. For a sobering comparison, barely 100 people attended Lee\u2019s funeral and he died a traitor having never been pardoned for treason and never restoring his citizenship.\nThat\u2019s right. Lee threw away his American citizenship and didn\u2019t even care enough to have it restored. Unbelievable that Americans erect statues and name streets after him.\nThen in 1935, with the rise of fascism in the US as well as around the world, suddenly trees were planted around Grant\u2019s Tomb directly contradicting the design to keep its prominence. And you can guess what happened next.\nI mean can you imagine planting trees up close and around the Statue of Liberty such that nobody would see it anymore unless standing at her feet?\nSuch a plan would be inconceivable, and yet\u2026here is what Grant\u2019s Tomb looks like today, completely hidden as if America is ashamed of its most important leader in military and civil rights history.\nThis monument to an American hero was greatly diminished around the same time as a \u201cdistorting history\u201d crowd worked so hard to shamelessly erect statues to honor America\u2019s enemies.\nLee literally asked that no monuments be made to him, and Americans dishonored his wishes in an attempt to keep civil strife alive. Grant\u2019s tomb specified no obstructions to the view, and Americans dishonored him as well in an attempt to obscure his message of peace and civility.\nSo the next time you see a loser-Lee monument of slavery and patronage, ask yourself where can you see the nearest monument to the victorious civil-rights anti-corruption champion Grant.\nNow, to be fair to the people who were fiddling with history in the 1930s, they considered themselves reformers.\nHerbert Satterlee is credited, for example, with pushing a number of dubious changes to Grant\u2019s Tomb before committing suicide a few years later.\nPerhaps most notable, besides that inexcusable obfuscation line of trees, is a ring of military busts staring inward and distracting from the sarcophagi.\nThe busts perhaps were an attempt to emulate Les Invalides in Paris, built in 1861, where Napoleon rests in a massive quartzite sarcophagus surrounded by 12 female statues representing his military campaigns.\nSo here\u2019s the thing. If we\u2019re being charitable, a Napoleonic bust theme could mean the trees planted at the same time were meant to be tiny and manicured like Les Invalides. In some weird twist of history, people wanted Grant\u2019s resting place to look more like Napoleon\u2019s by adding trees and busts.\nInstead we coincidentally see that during the period that unjust historians were trying to tarnish Grant\u2019s civil rights legacy, and falsely color his war-time accomplishments, trees strangely were allowed to grow out-of-control into a thick curtain.\nIs it really coincidence, though, even if the trees were meant to be maintained low and manicured to emulate Napoleon\u2019s tomb? Grant absolutely hated the Napoleon family legacy of cruel and selfish behavior, as he wrote plainly for everyone to see.\nGrant even famously urged invasion of Mexico at the end of the Civil War and said \u201cYou see Napoleon in Mexico was really a part, and and active part, of the rebellion. His army was as much opposed to us as that of [pro-slavery General] Kirby Smith\u2026I was for fighting Napoleon. There never was a more just cause for war than what Napoleon gave us.\u201d\nEven more to the point, the 1938 \u201crenovations\u201d to Grant\u2019s tomb played up his military career and all but diminished civil rights legacy. Yet Grant thought when US Generals he knew emulated Napoleon they became examples of failure.\nIn other words, it\u2019s a travesty of history for someone in 1938 to try and redesign Grant\u2019s tomb to emulate Napoleon, a man and legacy he despised. It is even worse that someone in 1938 would plant the seeds of trees that, in direct opposition to the design of Grant\u2019s tomb to be observed from far away, make it nearly impossible to see a building that so many people around the world have invested in to honor a great American hero.\nIt is past time to cut the trees down. I also think the busts should move to a separate observation gallery. And while we\u2019re at it can we get the obnoxious \u201cshiny boots\u201d Lee mural removed as well? I suppose that whole story will have to wait for another post, another day. In the meantime let\u2019s bring down those trees.\nPrevious PostPaul\u2019s Security Weekly #568Next PostDARPA\u2019s Heraclitus Drone\n2 thoughts on \u201cHiding Grant\u2019s Tomb in Plain Sight\u201d\nI was a student at Columbia. No one knew where Grant\u2019s Tomb was. I certainly wish they knew, we passed by it often enough.\nAt Barnard we knew of Grant\u2019s Tomb. It was like a place to hide because so hard to get to. I think you should add it is an island absent of cross-walks. You had to really want to be there, not something you could pass by and notice. Like you clearly see in your photo how the current design is hostile to visitors. How stupid is it that jaywalking is required?",

        "title": "Baha Mar: The Biggest Thing In The Bahamas",
        "raw_content": "Baha Mar: The Biggest Thing In The Bahamas\nRichard Nalley Contributor\nI am editor-at-large for ForbesLife\nSky-filling fireworks were cascading down from the highest rooftop at Baha Mar, at $3.5 billion said to be the western hemisphere's largest current resort project, and the most ambitious ever built in the Bahamas\u2014Atlantis, visible across the water, notwithstanding. Massive pyrotechnic flower blooms and vivid multi-color spikes and streamers burst seemingly right on top of us, so close that occasional warm ashes hit our faces and embedded themselves in our hair.\nI turned to my friend The World Traveler, shoulder-to-shoulder with me in the jostling crowd and shouted, \"This is so astounding!!\"\nShe shouted back, \"This is so Chinese!\"\nOddly enough, here outside Nassau on the island of New Providence, that's exactly what it was. Though the project is headed by a local businessman, Sarkis Izmirlian, much of the construction work and the financing\u2014like the fireworks\u2014is straight out of the Mainland. Baha Mar's labyrinth of skeletal buildings swarms with blue hard-hatted workers from China's State Construction Engineering Corporation, and the construction site is festooned with banners in Mandarin and English, featuring such exhortations as \"Warmly welcome our gracious leaders to review and guide us,\" and \"No violence to rules and regulations.\"\nThe ceremony I attended in late February as a guest of the resort was a \"topping off,\" celebrating the pouring of the concrete for the highest floor (the 25th) of Baha Mar's main hotel. That milestone for a project so massive it is expected to directly boost the GDP of Bahamas when it opens in December of 2014, received a suitably outsized commemoration. Several hundred invited guests, all wearing the blue hard hats, took construction elevators up to a top floor to stare out over the turquoise water, sip similarly colored cocktails and hear a speech or five. Bahamian Lenny Kravitz was on hand\u2014he has a contract to perform at the hotel when it opens, and the fireworks show was choreographed to \"Are You Gonna Go My Way?\" and \"Fly Away.\" Izmirlian a surprisingly youngish man with a charmingly disarming manner, spoke about the resort's goals. The Chinese ambassador was proud that his country was associated with the project. Bahamian Prime Minister Perry Christie spoke discursively and at some length. The takeaway was that his country had a lot pinned on Baha Mar, which he called \"the largest investment ever undertaken in the region.\" Among other things, the resort was a major motivation behind the government's $400 million expansion of Nassau's Lynden Pindling International airport, and is projected to provide 8,000 permanent jobs. You got the impression that Christie was nearly as anxious for December, 2014 as Izmirlian.\nEverything about the 1,000-acre Baha Mar is a big deal. A few numbers: There will be 2,200 hotel rooms spread between ventures from Rosewood, Grand Hyatt, Mondrian, Morgans and the centerpiece Baha Mar Casino & Hotel, the latter with a 100,000-square foot casino, the Caribbean's largest. There will be 30 restaurants and bars, a 2,000-square foot performing arts center and a 30,000-square foot ESPA spa, and...Well, you get the idea: A Vegas-like self-contained recreational world, only with 3,000 feet of beach frontage.\nAmong the happy consequences: The resort's commitment to displaying and promoting local artists may mark a major turning point in recognition for Bahamian painters and sculptors, who, from what little I saw, are definitely deserving of the scrutiny.\nThis is a project whose success or failure will send massive ripples throughout the Bahamas and maybe the region beyond, and one whose cooperation between governments\u2014local, Bahamian and Chinese\u2014and private enterprise may provide a model for such mega-developments going forward. Expect a full-on Junkanoo in December, 2014\u2014and an outbreak of fireworks that will rock windows all the way to Miami.\nI am editor-at-large for ForbesLife, covering travel, wine & food, watches, fashion, design, and pleasures of all kinds.

        "raw_content": "When you think of the forensic world, what is the first thing that comes to your mind (after CSI, of course)?\nWell, chances are you think of the past. After all, forensic specialists gather and examine information about the past. More importantly, perhaps, it is the study of how much someone leaves behind, floating in the ether of time \u2013 the fingerprints we can\u2019t see or the handwriting impressions on a blank piece of paper. Every man, woman and child leave their \u201cmark\u201d behind \u2013 a mark that is changing with time.\nOver the past fifty years, the forensic world has grown in leaps and bounds, due to major discoveries in science like DNA, or new technology that helps us analyze evidence like fingerprints and trace evidence. The future of the forensic world is subject to our imagination; and, for some, the online world is where the imagination leads. Have you noticed the word, \u2018cyber\u2019 is already being attached to a number of criminal activities? Do we really know what that means exactly?\nDespite crimes being committed in digital space and crossing over wires and fiber optics, signatures are still being signed \u2013 marks are being left behind in some form. The forensic world is constantly evolving, yet the requirements of a forensic expert remain the same; use whatever proven protocol is available in a scientific and objective manner to identify the perpetrator of wrong-doing.\nTake, for instance, online chat. Just as fingerprints are distinct to each person you meet, so are online chat habits. People use different phrases and words and change the way they write when they are chatting online, and those changes actually give us great insight into who is the person. In this category is where the Forensic Linguistics Expert shines. Handwriting identification is similar in that the physical movement of the writer is habitual and the combination of movements can be distinctly identifiable.\nThis type of online \u201ccyber\u201d forensics has scientists noting whether or not the words are spelled out or shortened, how emoticons are used and also logging word usage as a whole. This may not seem like much to go on, but, similar to forensic handwriting analysis, it\u2019s the accumulation of little details that matter most.\nThe digital age is upon us. Now we see less and less young adults who are capable of cursive writing, which is the style that is most often used to identify a writer. There is a strong influx of hand printing used among younger writers and men. It is incumbent on the forensic document scientific community to confirm that the same methods used for cursive, also apply to hand printing. A study is currently under way to do just that. Meanwhile, other forensic specialists are performing studies to see if it is possible to determine identity traits with texts and instant message chat.\nCase in point is a recent court case brought by the prosecutor who engaged a \u201ccyber\u201d expert to opine as to the identity of a sex offender by his online chat habits. While cases like this will likely come under close scrutiny for their acceptability in court, the practice will likely lead to more study into the forensic application of online text or chat log analysis.\nIn short, all of us leave our marks on the world \u2013 that much is certain; what marks they are and how they can be analyzed is the future of forensics. What do you think?\nSource: http://motherboard.vice.com/read/the-budding-science-of-chatroom-forensics",

This week she competes in her first World Championships.\nEsma Batur is one of two female competitors in the World Military Aeronautical Pentathlon Championship. Photo: Ulrika Kagg/F\u00f6rsvarsmakten\nEsma Batur from Turkey has practiced aeronautical pentathlon for ten months. This is her first major competition. Photo: Ulrika Kagg/F\u00f6rsvarsmakten\n\u2013 Shooting and the obstacle course are my favorite events, says Esma.\nShe is reluctant to name her best event \u2013 the results after this week will establish which one it is.\nEsma Batur is a first year cadet of the Turkish Air Force Academy in Istanbul. She has been practicing aeronautical pentathlon since she enrolled in the Air Force Academy ten months ago. She has previously competed in fencing, but this is the first time she does a complete pentathlon event.\nAfter finishing high school the choice of a military career was an easy one. There are many officers in Esma\u2019s family and she herself wanted to serve her country.\n\u2013 The training to become an officer is very demanding, but I feel I can make it, Esma says.\nShe has soon completed the first of four years at the Academy. After the fourth year she will undergo medical and written tests. If she does well she will be admitted to pilot training.\n\u2013 Of course I would like to become a pilot, but that wasn\u2019t the main reason for applying to the Academy. There are a number of interesting career choices, she adds.\nThe event she looks forward to most is the second part of the escape event \u2013 orienteering. All of the other events are somewhat predictable as to how they are carried out. For the orienteering, the competitors step on a bus and are driven to a forest location unknown to them.\n\u2013 You don\u2019t really know how it\u2019s going to be which is the part I like, says Esma.\nThe Championships in Uppsala is Esma Batur\u2019s first visit to Sweden. She will be competing individually in the reserve\u2019s contest along with the only other female athlete who comes from Norway.\n\u2013 I\u2019m excited to be one of the first women in this sport to date, and I hope more will follow, Esma Batur concludes.",

        "title": "Michigan's defense comes up short against Kentucky | FOX Sports",
        "raw_content": "Michigan\u2019s defense comes up short against Kentucky\nINDIANAPOLIS (AP) Michigan\u2019s Caris LeVert sat at his locker with a stone-cold expression Sunday night.\nHe couldn\u2019t believe Kentucky\u2019s Aaron Harrison managed to get that 3-point shot just over his left hand. He couldn\u2019t believe the ball actually went in, and, like just about everybody else inside the Wolverines locker room, he couldn\u2019t believe this is how Michigan\u2019s historic season would end \u2013 a few inches short.\n\u201dI felt like I touched it,\u201d LeVert said after the Wolverines lost the Midwest Regional championship game 75-72 on Harrison\u2019s 3-pointer in the closing seconds. \u201dHe hit a tough shot.\u201d\nSunday\u2019s finish was yet another blow for a program that has fallen just short so many times before.\nIn 1976, they lost the national championship game to Indiana \u2013 the last unbeaten team in men\u2019s basketball. In 1993, they lost the title game when Chris Webber mistakenly called a timeout when the Wolverines had none. A year ago, Michigan lost the Big Ten title when Jordan Morgan\u2019s last-second shot rolled off the rim in the regular-season finale. Threw weeks later, Louisville beat Michigan 82-76 in the national championship game.\nOn Sunday, LeVert came within a fingertip of deflecting Harrison\u2019s winning shot.\nInstead, the ball dropped cleanly through the net, leaving Michigan (28-9) with only a half-court heave to force overtime. The shot from Big Ten player of the year Nik Stauskas wasn\u2019t close, leaving last year\u2019s national runner-up and this year\u2019s Big Ten regular-season champs short one more time.\n\u201dIt\u2019s going to happen to you where you\u2019re going to make the shot sometimes and it\u2019s going to go against you sometimes,\u201d Stauskas said.\nPerhaps the cruelest irony was that until Aaron Harrison heated up late, it looked like the Wildcats (28-10) would win this game a completely different way \u2013 inside.\nThey outscored Michigan 46-36 in the paint and had nearly as many offensive rebounds (17) as defensive rebounds (18). Michigan finished with 24 rebounds, 14 on the offensive end.\nThings went from tough to bleak just 25 seconds into the second half Morgan went to the bench with his third foul. Kentucky wasted no time taking advantage, getting Julius Randle\u2019s dunk, Dakari Johnson\u2019s layup, a short runner from Randle and a putback from Alex Poythress all in a 99-second span to take a 45-39 lead.\nCoach John Beilein refused the temptation to reinsert the foul-prone Morgan, and eventually the Wolverines steadied themselves and rebuilt a 55-51 lead. But the bigger, stronger Wildcats answered with an 11-0 flurry that included eight inside the paint to take a 62-55 lead.\nWhen the Wolverines adapted by clogging the middle, Harrison took advantage from the perimeter and forced the Wolverines into chasing the rest of the night.\n\u201dKentucky\u2019s a good team, and when they\u2019re hitting 3s, they\u2019re tough to beat,\u201d LeVert said.\nThe sophomore guard and his teammates got a firsthand look at just how tough.\nFirst Harrison hit a 3 right in front of the Kentucky bench to make it a five-point game with 2 minutes left. After the Wolverines tied it on Morgan\u2019s tip-in with 27 seconds left, Beilein wasn\u2019t going to let the Wildcats get another point-blank look.\n\u201dThe way that this game got to this point, even though James Young hit the two (3s) in the first half, was it was all about dribble penetration, playing off the penetration, getting the rebound above the rim,\u201d Beilein said. \u201dWe weren\u2019t going to let them beat us in the stairs.\u201d\nCoach John Calipari expected that strategy and advised Harrison during a timeout that if he stepped back to create space, he\u2019d get a good look.\nHarrison followed the plan, forcing LeVert to contest on the move \u2013 and he came up just a little short.\n\u201dIt hurts,\u201d LeVert said, acknowledging he\u2019ll have to watch the game tape to determine what went wrong. \u201dHaving a guy like J-Mo (Morgan) who put his blood, sweat and tears into this team, coming up short, knowing that you could have did it, that you could have made an extra play for him, that kind of hurts.\u201d",

He\u2019s not taking the 1-5 Detroit Lions lightly, and that\u2019s because they have a future Hall of Famer at wide receiver in 30-year-old Calvin Johnson.\n\"All our guys understand who Calvin Johnson is and he\u2019s one of the greatest receivers of all time,\" Zimmer said, per Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. \"So we have to play good in order to contain him. I don\u2019t know that you ever shut him down, but you try your best to contain him.\"\nMegatron presents a serious matchup challenge, even for a defensive mastermind like Zimmer. He has 45 career 100-yard games, thanks in large part to his massive frame (6-5, 237 lbs.) and incredible jump-ball skills. Johnson currently ranks 32nd on the NFL\u2019s all-time leader board for receiving yards (10,893).\nAlthough he got off to a slow start, Johnson had his best performance of the season in Week 6 against the Chicago Bears (six catches, 166 yards, one touchdown). The Vikings will have a tough time covering him this Sunday.",

John Ralph\nSource: North American Bird Bander 30(1): 6-20\nCounts and banding captures of spring or fall migrants can generate useful information on the status and trends of the source populations. To do so, the counts and captures must be taken and recorded in a standardized and consistent manner. We present recommendations for field methods for counting and capturing migrants at intensively operated sites, such as bird observatories and banding stations with daily or near daily coverage. Each site should generate a daily \"migration count\" for each species. One or more methods are acceptable, including a visible migration count, a census or area search, banding captures, and a daily estimated total. All methods should be standardized as far as possible and a written protocol for each site should define the count area, times and locations of count and capture procedures, and other site-specific features designed to maintain consistency from day-to-day and year-to-year. The protocol should also include standards for numbers and skills of personnel and for habitat management. Several factors should be considered when selecting new migration monitoring sites, including specific questions to be addressed, presence of target andlor high priority species, turnover rate of migrants, habitat stability, property ownership and tenure, and accessibility. Sites should be operated for at least 10 years with coverage of 75% or more of the migration period of target species.\nHussell, David J. T.; Ralph, C. John. 2005.

        "raw_content": "Nintendo Switch Is A \"Great Platform\" For Ark, Dev Says\n\"For sure, we're not ignoring the Switch.\"\nCould the hit dinosaur game Ark: Survival Evolved come to Nintendo Switch? It's possible but don't get your hopes up just yet, according to developer Studio Wildcard. Co-founder and co-creative director Jesse Rapczak told GI.biz that the hybrid console is a \"great platform\" for Ark but also acknowledged that it's a challenging one compared to the other systems that the game is available on.\n\"Switch is a little challenging because it is a totally different platform; so we're throwing some ideas around, just seeing if it makes sense right now,\" he said. \"We don't have any concrete plans yet, but we're very close to Nintendo up here in Seattle and we all love the Switch for portability gaming and stuff like that. Ark is one of those games where if you want to do everything you can in the game, it's hard to pull away from it to go do real life. So I think Switch is a great platform for a game like Ark, because if the game is designed right, you can kind of pull out and do some stuff.\"\nRapczak said the mobility of the Switch--that is, how you can play it on the go--is one element that makes the console appealing for Ark specifically given the play patterns and player behaviour that Studio Wildcard has seen.\n\"It's kind of like some players play it almost like you might play a mobile game--you know, you might want to go do something in the game for a few minutes, like tend to your dinos or your crops or something if you play Ark that way,\" he explained. \"The mobility of the Switch platform might be appealing to those players, because they can just kinda carry it with them.\"\nWhile Studio Wildcard is excited about the Switch as a platform, it's too soon to say if Ark will come to it.\n\"So we do have a lot of hurdles there, especially with memory. But I will say, for sure, we're not ignoring the Switch,\" Rapczak said. \"I think it's definitely proven to be a platform that is a little bit better this time around for third-party developers. People are buying it. People are loving the games. I think it's just something that now is on our radar [so] let's take a look at it and let's see what we can do there.\"\nAlso in the interview, Rapczak confirmed that Ark has now sold 12 million copies across its digital and physical versions covering PC and console, making it a huge hit.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Case Studies \u00bb Challenge to terms of business\nGannons resolved an issue relating to a company\u2019s generic terms of business. We resolved the dispute and updated our client\u2019s terms to better protect them in the future.\nOur client, a business which out-sourced IT services business, was in dispute with one of its customers. This customer was threatening legal proceedings, claiming our client had provided an inappropriate standard of service. Our client disputed this. We stepped in to resolve the dispute.\nHow we addressed the issue\nOn behalf of our client, we ensured the claim was dismissed with immediate effect. Following the dismissal of the claim, we drafted new terms and conditions for use. Those terms protected our client in the event that a similar dispute arose in the future.\nFinally we advised on forming a new management process for the business model. This new model reduced any scope for customers claiming that our client\u2019s terms had not been made known to them, or incorporated into the contract.\nAvoiding expensive litigation\nFirst we avoided expensive litigation. Our client faced a claim valued at \u00a340,000. Additionally proceedings would take place in the County Court, over 150 miles from our client. The claimant had its own in house legal department. Thus the claimant could run the claim, at least until trial, without paying external lawyers. We settled the case with a small payment to the claimant. Our ability to settle saved the client thousands in legal costs, as well as significant uncertainty.\nNew terms of business\nWe drafted more robust terms. These reduced our client\u2019s future risks in its dealing with customers. Our client\u2019s terms of business sought to exclude their liability.\nUnfair Contract Terms Act 1977 \u2013 exclusion clauses\nWe knew our client\u2019s terms of business were unlikely to succeed, because it was questionable whether the terms of business had been properly incorporated into the contract. Our client had not sent the customer the terms during the pre-contractual communications.\nAdditionally, even if the terms of business had been incorporated into the contract, the term which sought to exclude liability would probably not stand up in court. Under the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977, a business cannot exclude liability for death or personal injury, and fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.\nSale of Good Act 1979 \u2013 reasonable standards\nThere is a reasonableness test for the exclusion of liability for negligence, other than where death or personal injury is caused.\nExclusion of liability clauses\nExclusions for negligence breaches the statutory implied conditions in sections 13, 14 and 15 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979, as these conditions include the implied term of satisfactory quality. The reasonableness test also includes breach of contract for misrepresentation.\nA court might deem a contract which has a clause excluding a party\u2019s liability for breach of all its contractual obligations to not be a contract. The court would say the effect is merely a declaration of intent by the seller. If an exclusion clause is found to be unreasonable, it will be wholly unenforceable. The result is the seller is liable for all the customer\u2019s loss.\nTerms and conditions for use in business\nMany businesses use \u201cstandard\u201d terms of business, which are also known as \u201cterms and conditions\u201d or \u201cT&C\u2019s\u201d. Businesses don\u2019t negotiate these terms for each new order to save time and expense. However, businesses should ensure these terms are suitable for their needs, but not too aggressive or one sided.\nWe first ensured we understood our client\u2019s business, then drafted two sets of terms of business: for our client\u2019s individual and business customers. The protections for individuals are greater than for businesses. The terms remained favourable to our client. However, we changed the terms to limit, rather than exclude, liability for business customers. There was no limitation for consumers.\nNew order management process\nWe re-engineered our client\u2019s order management process. This left no doubt as to the incorporation of the new terms into the contract. This included which forms they used and when the terms would be included. We then added the new terms to their website and ensured that our client effectively communicated the new terms through other channels as well.\nWe mitigated the risk of challenge to our client\u2019s terms. If our client\u2019s service levels declined, there would probably be disputes. Nevertheless, the terms of businesses gave our client the best possible protection.\nJohn Deane is a partner in the commercial team. The majority of businesses standard terms of conditions are open to challenge. Terms need updating to better cover risks and align with the specific business model. Please do get in touch with John if we can be of assistance.\nWe are enormously appreciative of the thorough job done by Gannons\nTerminating commercial contracts\nUnsigned contract enforced",

        "raw_content": "Growing Food In Partial or Near-Complete Shade\nNot everyone is lucky enough to have a vegetable garden that is bathed in sun for the full length of the day. In cities with many surrounding buildings, shade problems can be particularly pronounced. The good news is that even if you do not enjoy direct, full sunlight, there are still plenty of ways that you can grow food for yourself and your family \u2013 you just have to pick the right plants:\nFood For Areas With Very Little Or No Direct Sun:\nGrowing edible plants in an area receiving fewer than three hours of direct sunlight a day can be a challenge. But there are a number of plants that can be grown in such areas. These are also the plants that will do best in the shadiest corners of a forest garden.\nYou can use a shady corner or windowsill for pea or broad bean shoots which can be harvested early for salads and stir fries. You can also grow some cut and come again Asian greens such as mizuna, mibuna, pak choi and a range of mustards. Wild garlic, a few varieties of leek (e.g. allium paradoxum and allium triquetrum) and wasabi love the shade and will do well in areas with less than three hours of direct sunlight.\nFor food growing in very shaded areas, you will not have much success with many regular annual vegetables but you will be able to grow a wide range of edible plants \u2013 sometimes adapting to shade in an edible garden involves thinking outside the box. A number of common weeds and ornamental plants not usually used as food crops are delicious supplements to a home diet and many of these thrive in very shady conditions. Shade-loving hostas, plantago major, common dock, ground elder \u2013 these are just a few shade plants that can be good to eat. Elaeagnus varieties can have edible berries and seeds. Brambles, or blackberries, will also provide some fruit in almost full shade (and you can get thornless varieties).\nFood For Areas With At Least Three -Four Hours Of Sunlight\nYou may think that your garden in shady but if you are lucky enough to get at least three or fours hours of sunlight then that dramatically increases the number and variety of plants that you can grow. You are still more restricted than you would be in an area with more sun but you can still have a good edible garden.\nYou will be able to grow a wide range of leafy greens over and above the Asian greens mentioned above. Chard, kale, spinach, sorrel, rocket, winter purslane, land cress, lamb's lettuce and Good King Henry and many different loose-leaf lettuce varieties can all cope with 3-4 hours of sunlight a day and may even do better and bolt less than plants grown in full sun. You can also grow a wide range of herbs, including chives, mint, chervil and parsley and will likely get away with growing many more types of herb. Root veg such as beetroots, carrots, swedes, parsnips, turnips and radishes should also do okay in this amount of shade and you can also grow a range of forest garden fruits such as currants, gooseberries, rhubarb and alpine strawberries.",

        "raw_content": "Poisonous mushrooms could be key to drugs without side effects\nSome species of mushroom are perfectly safe to eat, but others that look very similar can land you in the hospital or worse. In studying how these fungi manage to be so poisonous, a team of Michigan State University researchers may have found a way to create a new generation of pharmaceuticals with highly targeted effects. Imagine chemotherapy drugs with no side effects, or antibacterial agents that can clear out severe infections without damaging other tissues. That\u2019s what poisonous mushrooms could do for medicine. Specifically, it\u2019s an enzyme used by these fungi to manufacture poisons.\nThis research used mushrooms of the genus Amanita, which includes the notorious death cap mushroom. These fungi produce quite a lot of proteins, but a few are incredibly toxic if ingested. Not only that, but these are hearty little proteins. They can survive cooking and exposure to stomach acid just fine, then pass into the bloodstream. It isn\u2019t until they reach the liver that their deadly effects are felt. The hepatotoxic effects of \u03b1-amanitin proteins can cause permanent liver damage, as well as death without treatment. You definitely don\u2019t want to get \u03b1-amanitin anywhere near your mouth, but it\u2019s the way this protein survives all the way to your liver that has scientists interested.\nToxic compounds like \u03b1-amanitin are what are known as cyclic peptides. Like all proteins, they are composed of chains of amino acids, which are assembled in cells. However, a cyclic peptides are linked together by a strong covalent bond in a ring orientation rather than being folded up and held together by weaker interactions. This makes a cyclic peptide extremely durable, ensuring it can survive the journey through your digestive track and end up wherever it needs to go.\nThe MSU team was able to pull apart the Amanita toxin and study the way they are produced. This led to the discovery of a second enzyme used in the mushroom\u2019s cells called POPB. This is what takes the freshly produced linear chain of peptides and converts it into a nearly indestructible ring that delivers a deadly payload to your liver. Of course, that\u2019s not the goal of the medical research. Pharmaceutical researchers want to use POPB to create new drugs that can carry therapeutic compounds through the body instead of deadly toxins. You have to admit, that sounds better.\nPOPB itself isn\u2019t a drug that will cure anything. It\u2019s like you had a missile carrying a nuclear warhead, but you were able to pry out the nuke. Now you\u2019re left with a missile that could be used to deliver something other than unstoppable atomic fire. The problem is figuring out how to formulate the payload to do the most good. The team has already designed several hundred compounds that could be transformed into cyclic peptides, but that\u2019s only the start. There could be billions of potential variants, and most of them won\u2019t be of any clinical significance. One of them might be the magic bullet, though.",

        "raw_content": "Free heat from the land of ice and snow\nCanada and the northern states have a lot of ice rinks. Most communities across Canada with more than 500 people have a local ice arena that is the social center of the town...and they are typically the most energy intensive buildings in the community. And the sad thing is most of the energy they use is simply thrown to the wind through a cooling tower. And there's a lot of energy...the average ice arena operating 10 months of the year has to get rid of\nabout 1.5 to 2.0 million kWh (5.1 to 6.8 m kBtu) of energy per year. That's enough energy to heat 100 to 200 typical homes, depending on construction and location. Approximately 60-70 ground coupled ice rinks have been built in the U.S. and Canada over the last 15 years.\nOne of the more interesting projects is located in the Town of Gibsons, BC. The Town has completed the first phase of a 750 home development...about 40 homes have been completed and connected to the system. When the development nears the community owned ice arena, the cooling tower will be replaced with a connection to the GHX. The heat from the ice arena will warm the GHX all year round, allowing up to 200 additional homes to be connected to the GHX.",

        "raw_content": "GloZell and Iskra Lawrence Give Advice to Kids on How to Handle Haters\nBrianna Wu Faced Down the Alt-Right and Now She's Running for Congress\nBrianna Wu is not your typical candidate. That\u2019s exactly why she\u2019s campaigning.\nThe #Gamergate cyberattack against Brianna Wu, in which an In\u00adter\u00adnet mob terrorized the software engineer after she spoke out against sexism and misogyny in the gaming industry, was tactically elegant in its launch and spectacularly cruel in its delivery. At its height in 2014, she saw her home address and personal information scrawled across the Web, and received more than 180 death threats on her social media accounts. Among the most vile were promises to rape her with military-grade weapons. Wu knows that threats like these led some women to quit the business and likely discouraged many others from entering altogether. But she continued to speak out.\nNow the 40-year-old video game developer is launching herself into a different kind of firestorm: She\u2019s running for Congress in Massachusetts\u2019 Eighth District on a platform crafted, in part, from her experience facing off against white-supremacist groups, which, she notes, have been against not only women gamers but also public policies that benefit anyone not white, heterosexual, and male. Her goal is economic and political parity for women, LGBTQ Americans, people of color, and the working poor. \u201cAll these forces are tied together,\u201d Wu told \u00adGlamour from her headquarters in Walpole, Massachusetts. \u201cThe system is not working for any of them.\u201d\nThe idea that the system is broken has motivated thousands of women to launch political campaigns; eleven thousand have told She Should Run, a nonpartisan group that offers resources to women interested in seeking office, that they are actively planning to run for office. Founder and CEO Erin Loos Cutraro says this new crop of political talent is \u201csick of not having their voices and perspectives represented\u201d and recognizes \u201cthe impact they can make at all levels of government.\u201d\nWu, a self-taught engineer who started programming at age eight and took university classes at 14, is planning a campaign that\u2019s social media\u2013savvy and based in door-to-door canvasing. She\u2019ll need every tool in her arsenal to pull off a Democratic primary win against incumbent Stephen Lynch, who\u2019s heavily backed by the state\u2019s party. (\u201cI see a Democratic party that\u2019s not standing up for us,\u201d she says.) If elected, she pledges, \u201cMy first mission is to make investments in the economy to help people just be able to live.\u201d Also on the docket: cybersecurity legislation to protect online privacy.\nWu\u2019s liberal convictions may be surprising given her roots in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, where she grew up in a conservative household with a steady diet of Fox News and, she says, regularly heard conversations disparaging people of color and Jews. She got her first political experience interning for former U.S. Senator Trent Lott (R\u2013Miss.), but in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, when the Bush administration declared war on Iraq, she felt she was on the wrong side.\n\u201cI haven\u2019t talked to my family since I went home with a John Kerry for President bumper sticker on my car,\u201d Wu says. \u201cIt hurts me every single day.\u201d But she refuses to keep her mouth shut and her head down, especially after seeing white supremacists marching in Charlottesville, Virginia, and Boston in August. The rallies, she says, \u201cjust made me double down.\u201d\nWu knows that stepping into politics could make her a target again. \u201cOf course there\u2019s fear,\u201d she says. \u201cBut ultimately, I am an American, and I love this country. I can live with knowing that running for office puts my life in danger. What I can\u2019t live with is doing nothing.\u201d\b\nKnow a woman who\u2019d be a great leader? Or want to run yourself?

(\u201cProfound\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) (TSX-V:PRN) today announced that it has completed its previously announced bought deal offering of 15,820,000 common shares of the Company (\u201cCommon Shares\u201d) at a price of $1.10 per Common Share (the \u201cOffering\u201d) for gross proceeds of approximately $17.4 million. The Offering was completed through a syndicate of underwriters led by GMP Securities L.P., and including Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. and Mackie Research Capital Corp.\nThe Common Shares were offered by way of a short form prospectus in all of the provinces of Canada as well as in the United States under applicable registration statement exemptions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering (a) to support certain costs and expenses of the TACT Pivotal Clinical Trial; (b) for ongoing expansion of infrastructure to execute on European sales and marketing plans; and (c) for general corporate purposes, including working capital.\nThe Profound team is committed to the effort to achieve a new therapeutic standard in prostate cancer. For the millions of men currently living with prostate cancer, and the thousands more who are diagnosed with it every year, current treatment options often mean having to make difficult choices based on potential side effects that can significantly impact quality of life. The Company\u2019s mission is to profoundly change the standard of care by creating a tomorrow where clinicians can confidently ablate cancerous prostate tissue with precision, while actively protecting critical anatomy from potential side effects; a tomorrow where patients have access to a safe, fast and effective treatment option, so they can quickly return to their daily lives.\nEstablished in 2008, Profound is commercializing a novel technology, TULSA-PRO\u2122, which combines real-time Magnetic Resonance Imaging with transurethral, robotically-driven therapeutic ultrasound and closed-loop thermal feedback control that is designed to provide precise ablation of the prostate while simultaneously protecting critical surrounding anatomy from potential side effects. TULSA-PRO\u2122 is CE Marked and Profound is sponsoring a multicenter, prospective FDA-registered clinical trial, TACT, which is designed to further demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of this innovative technology.\nThis release includes forward-looking statements regarding Profound and its business which may include, but is not limited to, the expectations regarding the efficacy of Profound\u2019s technology in the treatment of prostate cancer.

        "raw_content": "The Season of ADVENT is the four weeks before Christmas. It is traditionally a time for reflection, waiting and preparation for the coming of the Christ child. At Good Shepherd, some special things to look for which set these four weeks apart are:\nthe lectionary readings that give meaning to this wondrous event - the birth of Christ.\nthe color blue, which appears in the clergy vestments and decorations of the sanctuary.\nspecial prayers that are read at the lighting of candles in the Advent Wreath, a special custom that has been followed for centuries. Each of the four candles represents a week of Advent and prepares us for the Messiah.\nCHRISTMAS is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Our Christmas services are held on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. At these services you will notice that colors in the sanctuary have changed to white and gold. The Holy Family - Jesus, Mary and Joseph - is prominent in this celebration. Please note the new service times on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.\nChristmas Server Schedule Coming Soon!\n\u200bDecember 24 - Christmas Eve\nFamily Service at 4:00 PM\nA family friendly service that will feature traditional Christmas carols, a special Children\u2019s Message, and a musical offering from our Youth Music Ensemble.\nA traditional celebration of the Holy Eucharist featuring our Parish Choir. This service will also include the singing of Silent Night by candlelight.\nSolemn Choral Eucharist at 11:00 PM\nAn intimate sung Eucharist that will feature music by our Parish Quartet and guest, Grammy Award nominated musician John Michalak. This service will also include the singing of Silent Night by candlelight. Incense will used at this service.\u200b\n10:00 a.m. Christmas Eucharist\nDecember 30, The First Sunday after Christmas\n10:00 a.m. Lessons and Carols\nNine short Bible readings interspersed with music, solos and singing of the congregation, tell the story of the coming of Jesus.\nThere is no Eucharist at this traditional service that follows Christmas. \u200b\u200b\u200b\nWhy is blue the liturgical color of Advent?\nWhile purple has been used in many Anglican churches over the centuries, many churches have more recently been switching to blue. One reason for the change is to distinguish Advent from Lent, which are two very different seasons. However, blue also represents hope, expectation, and heaven. It is also the color associated with the Blessed Virgin Mary in art and iconography. Finally, deep blue is the color of the clear, predawn sky, the color that covers the earth in the hours before the sun rises in the east. Thus we use deep blue for Advent to shade the season with a hint of expectation and anticipation of the dawn of Christ.\n4:00 p.m. Family Service\n7:00 p.m. Festive Eucharist\n11:00 p.m. Solemn Choral Eucharist\n10:00 a.m. Christmas Eucharist Rite II\nSaturday, December 1, from 9:00 a.m. \u2013 3:00 p.m.\nThis will be a one-day retreat ministered by Patti C. Dunne, Chaplain/Pastoral Counselor, and Fr. Doug. We will spend time reflecting on the themes of Advent and the faithfulness of God in our lives. $10.00 covers the booklet (checks written to Patti C. Dunne). Bring your own journal and bag lunch. Beverages will be provided. Sign up in the Narthex.\nLiving as a People of Hope\nThe first followers of Jesus were sustained by a fervent hope in God\u2019s faithfulness even in the midst of persistent challenges and obstacles to the life of faith. How do we live as a people of hope? How do we have confidence in God\u2019s grace and power even in the midst of the trials of this world? These questions lie at the heart of the season of Advent. Join us this Advent as we explore what it means to live in hope.\nAdvent Compline\nDecember 2, at 6:30 PM\nTo mark the beginning of the Advent season, we will be gathering for a special Advent Compline service. The service of Compline is a contemplation and prayer that is traditional prayed at the close of the day. The church will be open beginning at 6:00 PM for silent prayer, followed by Compline at 6:30 PM.\nNew Rector\u2019s Bible Study\nThe Birth of Jesus According to Matthew and Luke\nDuring the season of Advent, Fr. Doug will be leading a four-week study on the birth narratives of Jesus as found in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Join us as we dive deep into these important stories that are so central to the seasons of Advent and Christmas.\nFriday, December 21, at 6:00 p.m.\nPlease join us when we gather as the sun sets on the longest night of the year for a service of evening prayer. The Longest Night, sometimes known as Blue Christmas, is designed to acknowledge that God's presence is for those who mourn, for those who struggle - and that God's Word come to shine light into our darkness. Everyone, regardless of church background is welcome.\nChristmas flowers and plants will be placed around the altar and sanctuary.

        "raw_content": "Quarterly National Accounts Scotland, 2017 Q1\nThe latest publication of Quarterly National Accounts Scotland (QNAS) was announced today by Scotland\u2019s Chief Statistician.\nThis publication includes statistics for the first quarter of 2017 (January-March). Exceptionally in this release, QNAS also includes an updated estimate of GDP growth for the latest quarter. This is due to the annual process of updating industry weights in the national accounts.\nDuring the first quarter of 2017, Scotland's onshore GDP is now estimated to have grown by 0.7% in real terms, based on 2014 weights. This has been revised from the estimate of 0.8% published on 5 July.\nOver the latest 12 months, corresponding to financial year 2016-17, the value of Scotland's onshore GDP is estimated at \u00a3150.0 billion in total, or \u00a327,854 per person, in current prices.\nIncluding a geographical share of UK extra-regio (offshore and overseas) economic activity, Scottish GDP is estimated at \u00a3159.4 billion in total, or \u00a329,593 per person during financial year 2016-17.\nThe expenditure measure of onshore GDP shows that the increase in GDP over the latest year, in current prices (not real terms), was mostly driven by consumer spending, but with positive contributions also made by government spending, capital investment and net trade.\nManufactured Exports make up around half of the total value of exports from Scotland to the rest of the world (excluding oil and gas). The Index of Manufactured Exports (IME) increased by 7.2% in volume terms during the first quarter of 2017. On a rolling annual basis, comparing the most recent four quarters to the previous four quarters, the volume of manufactured exports decreased by 2.8%.\nOver the year to 2017 Quarter 1, total consumer spending by the Household and Non-Profit Institutions Serving Households (NPISH) sectors is estimated to have increased by 2.5% in current prices (unadjusted for inflation, not real terms)\nGross Disposable Household Income (GDHI) is estimated to have increased by 0.7% over the year to 2017 Quarter 1 (in current prices, not real terms). The Household Savings Ratio is 4.5 per cent in the latest quarter, compared to an average value of 5.1 per cent during 2016.\nQuarterly National Accounts Scotland (QNAS) reports on a variety of economic statistics for Scotland, including components of GDP, the Index of Manufactured Exports (IME), households disposable income, and public sector revenues.\nIn the latest release, all statistics have been updated in line with the annual supply and use tables for 1998-2014 published on 26 July 2017. The latest weights used for calculating GDP growth have now been moved forward to 2014, from 2013. All quarters back to 1998 have been open for revision, including 2017 Quarter 1.\nThe full statistics publication, including quarterly results back to 1998, is available at: http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Statistics/Browse/Economy/QNA2017Q1",

        "raw_content": "Shareholders Call on P&G* for Lobbying and Political Spending Transparency Regarding Toxics and Climate Change Preparedness\nBOSTON, October 11, 2016 \u2013 Today, the Green Century Equity Fund (Green Century) spoke on behalf of its investors at the Procter and Gamble (P&G) Annual General Meeting calling on the multinational consumer goods company to disclose its political affiliations and spending through trade associations on the local, state, and federal level.\nStemming from the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) publication of investor expectations regarding lobbying and public advocacy, Green Century seeks to ensure that P&G\u2019s political spending and advocacy affiliations are not contradictory to its public statements regarding climate change and the use of toxics in its products.\n\u201cWe commend P&G for its efforts regarding product safety and energy management, but are asking for transparency in terms of political spending and affiliations,\u201d Leslie Samuelrich, President of Green Century Capital Management said. \u201cHow P&G\u2019s affiliates address climate change and toxics, to us, is an important indication of board management, governance risk, and how well the company is positioned for success in the long term,\u201d Samuelrich added.\nSpecifically, Green Century requests that the Board of Directors initiate a review and assessment of organizations of which P&G is a member or otherwise supports financially for lobbying policies and that a summary report of this review is available to stakeholders no later than March 2017.\nWhile P&G has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and power its plant facilities with 100 percent renewable energy, the company remains a member of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which sued the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over its findings that global warming endangers human health and welfare. Similarly, P&G claims that product safety is paramount, but remains a member of the American Chemistry Council (ACC), which works to obstruct regulations such as the Toxic Substances Control Act and the EPA\u2019s Clean Power Plan.\nThe misalignment between P&G\u2019s publicly declared corporate values and commitments in conjunction with its funding of these and other similar public advocacy organizations may be an inappropriate use of shareholder dollars. Green Century believes that companies that adopt environmental policies and practices, and encourage innovation and other long-term strategies may benefit the company\u2019s brand, reputation, and financial strength in the future.\nGreen Century is a leader in environmentally and socially responsible investing. Through our three-pronged approach, we offer investors the opportunity to make an impact in a way no other mutual fund family can: investing in sustainable companies; our leading shareholder advocacy program; and our unique ownership, where 100 percent of the profits earned managing the Green Century Funds can be used to support the environmental and public health work of our non-profit owners\n*As of June 30, 2016, The Procter and Gamble Company comprised 3.02% and 0.00% of the Green Century Equity Fund and Green Century Balanced Fund, respectively. References to specific securities, which will change due to ongoing management of the Funds, should not be construed as a recommendation by the Funds, their administrator, or their distributor.\nYou should carefully consider the Funds\u2019 investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing.

        "title": "Our Outcomes & Themes | Green Infrastructure Scotland",
        "raw_content": "Our vision is that greenspaces in Scotland are multifunctional, providing improved benefits for communities, helping us adapt to and mitigate climate change, increasing biodiversity, improving our air quality, managing surface water runoff and reducing flooding. Green infrastructure close to where people live provides economic, health and recreational benefits and enhances their quality of life. More people use greenspace for healthy activities and more people say that the greenspace meets their needs.\nCommunities have increased confidence from improvements in the quality of their local environment and their sense of place. Everyone within communities feels confident and empowered to use their greenspace and to be involved in, or influence, its management. Enjoying the outdoors has become a much more common activity and is part of our culture and identity. People have increased opportunities to experience and value nature.\nOur vision will be achieved through our funded projects, which contribute towards the following five outcomes and horizontal themes\nOutcome 1 \u2013 Nature, biodiversity and ecosystems\nImproved green infrastructure enhances and restores the biodiversity and ecosystem function of an area, helping our urban ecosystems to be more resilient to change. By increasing the strength of the urban green network, it provides, restores and safeguards many more services to people and nature. Improvements to urban ecosystems provide benefits to people and take account of those people\u2019s needs, improving livelihoods and quality of life, especially for those who are most disadvantaged. People value nature and the benefits it provides and are aware of the steps they can take to conserve it.\nGreenspace and green infrastructure are linked through a habitat network which has better connections and reaches further into towns and cities, enabling movement of wildlife. Improved green infrastructure has a varied structure, with trees, shrubs and a variety of ground vegetation. Habitat networks are improved, increasing space for biodiversity and helping species to adapt to climate change. Better natural connections between urban and rural environments redress some of the losses resulting from our heavy industrial past.\nOutcome 3 \u2013 Involving communities and increasing participation\nPeople feel confident and empowered to use their greenspace. There is a perception that crime, including \u2018low level crime\u2019 or anti-social behaviour is reduced. People use their greenspace more often and for a wider range of activities, both formal and informal. Schools and other organisations use greenspace for education, skills development, volunteering, recreation and play.\nEnjoying the outdoors has become much more common and is part of our culture. People explore the area to experience nature, relax and stay fit. There is an increased choice of greenspace available with a range of different sizes, facilities, habitats, play equipment and experiences to visit close to home. Interpretation helps to make the sites and network easier to understand and use and explains what wildlife, facilities and activities can be found there, and what benefits they provide. There is a broad range of outdoor experiences that do not need prior knowledge. There are more community gardens, allotments and food production and more wild food can be collected.\nMore people use path networks and cycle routes because greenspaces are better linked together, including links to and between national way-marked routes.\nCommunities across Scotland understand and engage with their green places and efforts to improve them. Communities want to influence green infrastructure development and feel ownership and empowerment to use it to its full potential. Communities feel positive about green infrastructure investment and understand how it benefits them and want to engage with it and share their experience.\nCommunities close to or affected by green infrastructure are engaged and involved in the planning, management, improvement and use of their places and greenspaces. They see green infrastructure as a positive factor in the way their place functions and feel that the green elements of their environment add to their quality of life. Communities affected by green infrastructure improvements want to celebrate the improvements, and other communities are aware of and feel welcome to enjoy and experience these green places.\nOutcome 5 \u2013 Improving health and well-being\nGreenspace becomes a central feature of people\u2019s lives and they recognise and welcome the role it plays in their day to day well-being and happiness. Communities\u2019 health and well-being improves through the use of greenspace.\nGreen infrastructure close to where people live provides health and recreational benefits and enhances their quality of life through improving the quality of their local environment and their sense of place. People of all ages and abilities feel safe and confident to use and enjoy their greenspace. More people benefit from recreation and formal and informal exercise in greenspace. People's mental health and well-being is better as a result of increased contact with nature and with their community.\nHealthcare professionals increase their use of green prescribing as an alternative to prescription drugs or other therapies. Greenspace helps patients, visitors and staff to see their hospital or medical centre as a positive place.\nThere are three horizontal themes which should be reflected in all ERDF funded projects. These are:\nEqual Opportunities and Non-Discrimination\nThe European Commission describes Equal Opportunities and Non-Discrimination as taking\u2026\u201dappropriate steps to prevent any discrimination based on sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation during the preparation and implementation of programmes. In particular, accessibility for persons with disabilities shall be taken into account throughout the preparation and implementation of programmes\u201d.\nAll projects should demonstrate that they have considered the impact of the supported activities on groups with protected characteristics under the Equalities Acts and ensure that their application includes a description of specific actions they intend to take to actively prevent discrimination.\nApplicants should design their project to take account of the needs of the groups at risk of discrimination, and in particular the requirements for ensuring accessibility for persons with disabilities.\nThe principle of Equality between Men and Women is outlined by the European Commission as ensuring that \u201c\u2026equality between men and women and the integration of gender perspective are taken into account and promoted throughout the preparation and implementation of programmes, including in relation to monitoring, reporting and evaluation.\u201d\nAll projects seeking GIF funding should demonstrate that they have considered the contribution of the supported activities to the promotion of equality between men and women and ensure that their application includes a description of specific actions they will take to actively support equality.\nAll three of these align well with the outcomes of the Green Infrastructure Fund but you will need to specifically demonstrate in your application how your project will support the delivery of these three strands through the delivery of your project.",

(AP) \u2014 Leaders of Pennsylvania's state-owned university system promised lawmakers a transformation amid declining enrollments and rising costs, as well as lackluster state support that skeptical Republican lawmakers suggested Tuesday was not a coincidence.\nThe hearing before the House Appropriations Committee came after the fall enrollment at the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education fell below 100,000 for the first time since 2001. Public university systems in many states face similar challenges, including declining high school graduation numbers and stagnant post-recession state aid.\n\"The challenges that we're facing here in Pennsylvania, they're not unique, they're just super acute,\" said Dan Greenstein, who took over as system chancellor last fall. \"They're as acute, more acute than they are, really, pretty much anywhere, so a lot of folks are watching and there's a lot of interest in what we're doing because win, lose or draw, there's going to be a lot of lessons learned.\"\nEnrollment growth, Greenstein suggested, could come from serving adults who need to retrain or want to upgrade their skills in a competitive economy.",

        "raw_content": "Driving to the end of East Cary Street in the Shockoe Bottom neighborhood, passers-by might notice the large Lucky Strike smoke stack on one of the loft buildings. They might also notice the \u2018Connecticut\u2019 statue at the top of that same building. But what they might not notice, underneath some of Richmond\u2019s history, is a company that could be a part of Richmond\u2019s future.\nIppon Technologies USA, a subsidiary of a Paris-based technology consulting firm, came to the U.S. in March 2014. The digital, data, and cloud solutions company, who specialize in java-based architectures, chose Richmond as a first landing spot in their quest to expand on the East Coast. According to Romain Lh\u00e9ritier, the Managing Director of Ippon USA in Richmond, coming to the city was a great business decision for the growing company.\n\u201cVirginia is business friendly from a tax standpoint in helping businesses,\u201d explained Lh\u00e9ritier. \u201cOur target market is the East Coast, and when you look at Richmond on the map, it\u2019s pretty central. So all these were the business reasons to do things here.\u201d\nAlong with the geographical and business motives to come to Richmond, Lh\u00e9ritier said the city is a great place for recruiting new computer engineering talent from the surrounding universities and colleges, including Virginia Commonwealth University. Dennis Sharpe, a technical director with Ippon, explained the company\u2019s relationship with the school.\n\u201cWe\u2019re very heavily involved with VCU,\u201d said Sharpe. \u201cWe do senior capstone projects with VCU every year. We also do internships with them.\u201d\nWhen describing the business culture at Ippon, many of the employees, including Sharpe, say it\u2019s a \u201cwork hard, play hard\u201d atmosphere. The company\u2019s culture, Lh\u00e9ritier says, comes from its founder St\u00e9phane Nomis, a former Judo champion in France who founded the company in 2003.\n\u201cHe gives it a very unique culture,\u201d said Lh\u00e9ritier. \u201cIt\u2019s a sense where people join a club because they want to be better. So the moment that you show up, you realize you\u2019re joining a team of people who are better than you, and you want to improve yourself, and be with people who are smarter than you and train with them until you reach their level. It\u2019s being a team and collaborating, but also\u2026 friendly competition.\u201d\nThe company culture of learning, competing, and improving has extended beyond their own office and into the local tech community. According to Ben Scott, a technical manager for the company, Ippon hosts various events geared toward helping other engineers and future engineers.\n\u201cWe work with and sponsor Agile Richmond\u2019s annual Innovate Virginia Conference,\u201d said Scott. \u201cWe also host technology meetups. We present topics or we actually manage the entire meetup, and we host it here quite often. Almost every week there will be a meeting here with the community coming in. We also mentor students at a hackathon, that\u2019s a yearly thing, and we do mock interviews to help them find jobs.\u201d\nIn addition to working with the local technology community, Ippon also dedicates time to helping the Richmond community by working with local nonprofit organizations, including HandsOn Greater Richmond, to give back to the community they call home.\nAs the company continues to recruit talent, gain clients, and expand their reach and client base up and down the East Coast, the company, according to Lh\u00e9ritier, looks forward to growing within Virginia\u2019s capital city. In order to grow, Lh\u00e9ritier says they are always looking for new talent and specifically, new talent with a passion for their work.\n\u201cThe first thing that I look for is being intellectually curious and wanting to learn,\u201d explained Lh\u00e9ritier. \u201cSo the people we hire are just as passionate about technology and learning. I often ask the question in an interview, what would you do when you retire, then many people will say \u2018I want to code.\u2019 I mean, they\u2019re just getting paid for what they love to do. So passion is very important.\u201d\nIppon\u2019s presence in Richmond could be sign of a new economic direction for the city. While Richmond might not be known as a major technology hub, the growth and leadership of a company like Ippon could be the spark the local industry needs.",

        "raw_content": "ANC seat to be filled next week\nBy Kaitlyn Jahrling Feb 13, 2006 12:00 AM\nDespite announcements from several residents in the past few weeks that they would enter the race for the open Advisory Neighborhood Commission seat, it will be filled automatically at next week\u2019s meeting after only one resident filed his paperwork in time.\nArea resident Michael Thomas will become the new ANC commissioner for the vacant seat that represents a portion of Foggy Bottom between Pennsylvania Avenue and N Street from 20th to 27th streets at the Feb. 15 meeting if there are no objections from other commissioners. The seat was made available in December when former commissioner Richard Price moved out of the area. Local ANCs make zoning recommendations to the city.\nAccording to ANC bylaws, since Thomas was the only candidate to complete all of the steps necessary to run for the opening, he will automatically win the position, said Gottlieb Simon, executive director of the District\u2019s ANCs.\nIn 1998, Thomas was president of the Foggy Bottom Association, another neighborhood group, when GW negotiated the existing Campus Plan, a legal agreement between the University and the community. Thomas, a lawyer who retired in 1994, has also been on the GW Hospital\u2019s Board of Trustees and is president of his building\u2019s resident association.\nThomas said he decided to run for the open seat on the commission because of the multitude of development projects proposed for the Foggy Bottom area, particularly within his single-member district.\n\u201cThe West End, over the next three to five years, will have changed complexion completely,\u201d he said. Thomas cited specific projects, including renovation of the West End Library and development of the two vacant lots at 25th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, as changes that he wants to have a say in.\nThree community members were said to have been running for the seat since the last Foggy Bottom Association meeting in late January. By the Feb. 6 filing deadline, only Thomas had completed his forms.\nIn order to be eligible for the ANC opening, candidates must live in the single-member district that the seat covers for at least 60 days prior to filing, be a registered voter at a residence within the single member district\u2019s boundaries and collect the signatures of 25 registered voters within the single-member district.\nANC Chair Vince Micone said he is happy with Thomas filling for the open seat.\n\u201cI\u2019m actually very, very pleased that we had the vacancy filled because we have some very important things coming before the commission,\u201d he said. Micone said that aside from considering GW\u2019s new 20-year Campus Plan proposal, other important topics include renovation of the West End library, condominium projects and the D.C. Department of Transportation\u2019s proposal to resurface New Hampshire Avenue.",

        "raw_content": "Sarah Palin's daughter may be facing a child custody battle\nOn behalf of Law Offices of Harris & Literski posted in Child Custody on Thursday, November 14, 2013.\nDivorce is an extremely difficult time for couples in Michigan. Not only must they deal with the emotional turmoil that comes with ending a relationship, but, if children are involved, they must also deal with child custody issues. Questions of child custody can be hard for courts to answer because ultimately the child is going to be with one parent more than the other in most custody cases.\nBristol Palin, daughter of politician Sarah Palin,may be facing a custody battle with the father of her child. The father, Levi Johnston, and Palin had a son together and to date Palin has had primary custody of him. As part of this arrangement, Johnston has to pay a certain amount of money every month for child support. Johnston is seeking to gain further access to his son and is seeking a child custody arrangement where he has equal custody. The court will eventually have to hear the case and decide whether or not a new custody order should be issued in favor of Johnston.\nIn all child custody cases, the court will base its decision on what is in the best interest of the child. This standard is used to ensure that the court places the child's needs ahead of everything else. The court will look at whether the child will be cared for emotionally and physically as well as being provided for financially. Because children of break-ups are extremely vulnerable to the emotions of their parents, the court's role is vital in protecting the child.\nAlthough child support is a contentious matter, there are instances where decisions are made amicably. However, since child custody situations can be volatile, it is important for one to understand the court's role as well as their rights when engaged in this type of matter.\nSource: TMZ, \"LEVI JOHNSTON I WANT 50/50 CUSTODY Of Tripp Palin,\" November 7, 2013\nTags: Child custody, divorce, emotions",

        "raw_content": "Rome, Pt. 4: The Colosseum, Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and our Last Night in Rome\nHello again! We are still in Rome. It is our last day here; we leave tomorrow around lunch-time. As we were eating lunch on a bench in a piazza today, our middle son, Hayden, remarked, \u201cI never want to leave Rome. I love it here.\u201d Indeed, we have fallen in love with Rome. We are totally smitten. We all had high expectations for Rome, and we all agree they have been exceeded. Yes, it\u2019s that great.\nToday, as per usual, we explored many sights on foot. However, the highlight of the day, by far, was our guided tour of Rome\u2019s Colosseum.\nRome\u2019s Colosseum, which opened in 80 A.D., and is the largest amphitheater ever built.\nThe massive stone colosseum, known as a Flavian Amphitheater, is the largest amphitheater ever built, and I am here to report that it is massive. The building\u2019s dimensions 615 feet long and 510 feet wide, with a base area of 6 acres. The Colosseum was commissioned to be built in 70-72 A.D. by Emperor Vespasian as a gift to the Roman people. In 80 A.D., Vespasian\u2019s son, Titus, opened the Colosseum with 100 days of games. These games included combats between gladiators (who were slaves) and wild animal fights. The Colosseum was used for four centuries.\nIt is hard to describe how it felt to stand in the arena \u2013 something so massive and old, and that was at one time a place of such raucous and violent \u201csporting events.\u201d\nAwesome. The inside of the Colosseum.\nDuring our family\u2019s daily gelato fix, and during that, we shared what we found to be the most interesting points learned during the Colosseum tour. I\u2019ll share some of what we all mentioned as learning highlights from that conversation\u2026\n\u2022 There were usually three events. In the morning was a hunt, complete with a wide range of animals, ranging from lions, bears, leopards, tigers, wolves and wild boars. During lunch, on display were the public executions, where wild animals were set loose to kill criminals for all to watch. Then the afternoon event was the gladiators who fought one another.\n\u2022 By the way, apparently, the gladiators were not tall and handsome and ripped like Russell Crowe. Rather, the gladiators were \u201cmore like Danny DeVito.\u201d Apparently, the gladiators were fed lots of barley to fatten up their stomachs in an effort to provide additional protection for their internal organs.\n\u2022 Some people attended the events at the Colosseum.\n\u2022 During the Colosseum\u2019s 100-day opening, 9,000 animals were killed, and 2,000 gladiators were killed.\n\u2022 As an event approached, the animals were not fed, and they were caged so they\u2019d be more aggressive come the day of the event.\n\u2022 There were 20-30 elevators/\u201dlifts\u201d that lifted up wild animals, as if magically, through \u201ctrap doors\u201d in the colosseum\u2019s arena floor during the events. Each lift required 6-8 slaves to manually operate them and lift the animals up. Their working conditions were awful\u2026 they were under the arena floor, in pitch dark (with a small oil lamp), surrounded by wild animals, and their roars and their waste, no circulating air, and add to that, there was a sewer under the arena.\nAn illustration on exhibit at the Colosseum that shows what was going on under the arena floor before and during events as slaves worked with the caged animals, and had the task of operating manual lifts so the wild animals would each appear, as if by magic, onto the arena floor.\n\u2022 Gladiators were trained for 6 months, so they didn\u2019t just get picked one day, and put out to fight the next.\n\u2022 Even though the gladiators were slaves, they were famous, and admired by some.\n\u2022 According to our guide, the gladiators were chosen from a wide ranging regions of Italy \u201cso that they would be less likely to bond, since they\u2019d be going at battle and were instructed to kill.\u201d\n\u2022 The steps in the colosseum were purposely built to be very steep, so that the entire crowd of people could exit the amphitheater in about 15 minutes time. We also learned that \u201carena\u201d means sand, and that the Colosseum used sand because it was easiest to remove and clean up and replace in between events.\nA close up of the area under the arena, where wild animals were contained.\nRemains of a sculpture from the Colosseum. Most everything was looted, except for a small quantity of remnants such as this one.\nGetting a guided tour of the Colosseum was a fantastic experience that I highly recommend. Our guide was fantastic. We learned so much more than we would have had we just walked through the Colosseum on our own.\nWe then enjoyed a tour of the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill that was also fascinating, even if it was a little more exciting than we bargained for. (It rained, and there was a lot of lightning and thunder over and around us.) I hope to write about that fabulous tour in a future post, but for now, am including some photos, with captions, from that part of the tour at the very end of this blog post.\nDuring our daily gelato break today this afternoon, I was asking everyone to mention some of the things they love most about Rome. One son remarked, \u201cI don\u2019t want to leave Rome. I love this place.\u201d We have all fallen head over hills for Rome! We all came up with the following ways to describe this fabulous place, use the letters of ROME:\nJerry: Rich, Outstanding, Moving, Exciting.\nMe: Romantic, Old, Masterful, Epic.\nWolf: Rich, Old, Miraculous, Extravagant.\nHayden: Renaissance, Ominous, Mastery, Exciting.\nFin: Riveting, Outstanding, Margherita pizza, Enjoyable.\nLater, the boys put collared shirts (polos!) on for the first time during this adventure and we all went out to Piazza Navona, one of our new favorite places, and had one last epically delicious Italian dinner. We had a wonderful time! Here are some photos and videos.\nBoys, all (sorta!) dressed up for our last Italian dinner.\nSant \u2018Angelo Bridge as the sun starts to set.\nHanging out in St. Peter\u2019s Square.\nA perfect ending to a perfect day \u2013 Tiramisu!\nPhotos from Roman Forum and Palatine Hill tour:\nRemnants of a temple under which Marcus Aurelius\u2019 parents are buried.\nRemnants of the Roman Forum.\nRoman Forum remnants. This is former site for the Vestal Virgins.\nFor now, thanks for reading this blog, and for following along with us on this Epic Europe Family Adventure.\nNext up: Portugal!\nFiled Under: Family, Frontier Life, Life and Leadership, Travel & Tourism Tagged With: colosseum, gladiators, palatine hill, roman forum, rome",

        "raw_content": "The Healthy Blog Workplace absenteeism and ill health\nWorkplace absenteeism and ill health\nMusculoskeletal disorders account for 34% of all days lost due to work-related ill health\nWorkplace absenteeism has many causes but the two that affect the vast majority of cases are stress and injury, specifically musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) such as upper and lower limb problems and back disorders. Together, stress and MSDs make up the bulk of the estimated \u00a3100 billion a year the UK economy loses due to absenteeism. Looking at recent figures there are a couple of trends that seem to be emerging that could potentially increase the rate of ill health related work absence in the future, across many large employers.\nMusculoskeletal disorders account for 34% of all days lost due to work-related ill health in the 2015/16 period in Great Britain, with an estimated total of 8.8 million days. Combined with the 45% accounted for by stress, this accounts for 79% of the causes of ill health related days off work. These figures have been broadly similar over the last 5 years or so for both stress and MSDs. (Health and Safety Executive, 2016a)\nStress is more prevalent in the public sector, health and social care, education, public administration and defence. Female employees are more likely to experience stress at work than male employees and medium and large companies have higher rates of worker stress than small companies. The main reasons behind the high stress levels are reported as high workload, organisational change and lack of managerial support. (Health and Safety Executive, 2016)\nMSDs are a lot more common in industries that require a physical element to the job role, such as construction, agriculture, transport and storage, but also health and social care due mainly to patient handling. Both genders are broadly similar in the number of cases per year but the older age groups of 45-54 and 55+ are far more likely to experience time off work due to MSDs. (Health and Safety Executive, 2016)\nLooking to the future there could be a confluence of factors that potentially raise the levels of work- related illness and therefore increase absenteeism and lower productivity. According to an April 2015 article in the Economist, two thirds of the increase in employment since 2010 has been among those aged 50 and over. The Office for National Statistics\u2019 latest life expectancy figures are at 79.3 for males and 83 for females, with this rising to as high as 93.9 for males and 96.5 for females by 2039. There is a corresponding rise in retirement age. (Roper, J 2016 The HR Challenges of an Ageing Workforce)\nSo with a higher aged workforce that experience more MSDs than younger workers, and job vacancies in sectors that are notoriously high stress, social care for example, which has a growing workload to cope with the growing older population, now must surely be the time to properly invest in wellbeing and stress management saving us all money in the long run.\nFind out more about how we can assist with absence caused by ill health with our corporate health and wellbeing programmes.\nIf you\u2019d like advice and support to help you tackle work place absence caused by ill-health, contact us via our website or call us on 0800 170 1777.

        "raw_content": "Although completed too late to submit to the judge, this document stands on its own as a good primer on climate change.\nOn March 9, 2018, Federal District Court Judge William Alsup asked legal counsel for the parties in The People of the State of California v. BP P.L.C, et al. to present a tutorial on climate science during a five-hour hearing before the court, scheduled to take place on March 21.\nJudge Alsup asked each side\u2019s counsel to present an overview of current climate science and more specifically to answer eight questions posed by the judge. Judge Alsup also asked plaintiffs\u2019 counsel to produce documents related to plaintiffs\u2019 claim that ExxonMobil, BP, Chevron, and other oil companies conspired to hide evidence of an impending climate disaster.\nMotivated by concern that neither party would present an objective overview of climate science, The Heartland Institute convened a team of scientists to write their own answers to the judge\u2019s questions. Unfortunately, that effort was completed too late to submit to the judge. However, the resulting document, presented here, stands on its own as a primer on climate change for anyone looking for a sound foundation in the basic science.\nIn this brief memo, we offer first an overview of the current state of scientific understanding of the human impact on Earth\u2019s climate, followed by some commentary providing context for the eight questions asked by Judge Alsup. Answers to the judge\u2019s questions follow, and then a comment regarding his request for documentation of the claim that the oil industry conspired to mislead the public.\nThe Heartland Institute, publisher of this memo, helped an independent group of scientists submit their own amicus brief, which was received by the judge\u2019s deadline. In response to that brief, plaintiffs filed a statement with Judge Alsup filled with inaccurate claims meant to discredit the amici and The Heartland Institute. The final section of this memo presents a reply by Jay Lehr to the charges made against The Heartland Institute. The qualifications of the authors of this memo appear on page 23.\nJudge Alsup's eight questions on climate science were:\n1. What caused the various ice ages (including \u201cthe Little Ice Age\u201d and prolonged cool periods) and what caused the ice to melt? When they melted by how much did sea level rise?\n2. What is the molecular difference by which CO2 absorbs infrared radiation but oxygen and nitrogen do not?\n3. What is the mechanism by which infrared radiation trapped by CO2 in the atmosphere is turned into heat and finds its way back to sea level?\n4. Does CO2 in the atmosphere reflect any sunlight back into space such that the reflected sunlight never penetrates the atmosphere in the first place?\n5. Apart from CO2, what happens to the collective heat from tailpipe exhausts, engine radiators, and all other heat from combustion of fossil fuels? How, if at all, does this collective heat contribute to warming of the atmosphere?\n6. In grade school many of us were taught that humans exhale CO2 but plants absorb CO2 and return oxygen to the air (keeping the carbon for fiber). Is this still valid? If so why hasn\u2019t plant life turned the higher levels of CO2 back into oxygen? Given the increase in human population on Earth (four billion), is human respiration a contributing factor to the buildup of CO2?\n7. What are the main sources of CO2 that account for the incremental buildup of CO2 in the atmosphere?\n8. What are the main sources of heat that account for the incremental rise in temperature on Earth?\nNOTE: The authors of this memo are: Jay Lehr, Ph.D., Kenneth Haapala, Patrick Frank, Ph.D., and Patrick Moore, Ph.D.\nEnvironment: Climate Change Law: Judiciary Climate Change: Climate Change Regulation Energy: Oil\nKenneth Haapala\nKenneth Haapala is president of the Science and Environmental Policy Project (SEPP), compiler of The Week That Was newsletter, and a contributor to the NIPCC reports.\nken@haapala.com\nDr. Patrick Moore has been a leader in the international environmental field for over 40 years.

The project presented several challenges as the building was decommissioned in the summer of 2005.\nWith the building in need of significant exterior repair, ADA/Code Compliance upgrades, and a complete reprogramming effort, Highland Associates quickly reviewed a previously prepared feasibility study while simultaneously conducting an existing building conditions assessment.\nIt was immediately discovered that a structural design solution was required to meet new loading demands. ADA upgrades included a new elevator tower located on the back corner of the building, thus preserving the aesthetic character of this early American-style building.\nStaying true to the character of the building, Highland\u2019s design meets all the objectives of the University featuring \u201csmart\u201d classroom technology consistent with University standards. Providing Speech Pathology and Audiology services to the community also resulted in the need for improved loading to accommodate audiology labs and clinical spaces on the second floor. A further design challenge to the project was the University\u2019s desire for a tiered lecture hall requiring a floor plate be cut.\nMonroe Hall received LEED Gold certification and features an 84-borehole geothermal well system hidden beneath the quad.

        "title": "Are solicitors dragging their heels? - Hilton Smythe Commercial",
        "raw_content": "Are solicitors dragging their heels?\nBusiness buyers have the need for speed, but solicitors are dragging their heels\nIf you\u2019ve ever bought a business, or indeed a new home, you will have been through what is a lengthy and laborious experience. It can be incredibly frustrating, particularly when you\u2019re in a flush of excitement about starting the next phase of your life, and everything seems to be stuck in purgatory for months, with no end in sight.\nRecently, Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government Sajid Javid MP raised questions about how to speed up conveyancing when buying a house, in order to make the process quicker and less stressful. I think this is a sensible approach, and one that should be replicated in the buying and selling of businesses.\nBuying a business can be as stressful as buying a house. It requires a large investment, and, particularly in the cases of the small and medium sized businesses we deal with at Hilton Smythe, it will be the owners only source of income. All of their eggs will be in this business\u2019s basket, and any delay in starting to trade will mean a loss of income.\nBehind the scenes, we know that the legal process for a sale of business transaction might be as little as eight to ten hours\u2019 work, yet our latest research shows that it is taking just shy of 100 days to complete the average sale. This is incredibly frustrating for the clients, who are waiting for months on end to finalise buying their business.\nWe deal with a lot of leasehold properties, and often it is waiting for third parties, such as landlords, solicitors, and banks that holds the transaction up. A letter can be sent out, usually by \u2018snail mail\u2019, this has to be physically signed and returned. You\u2019re relying on people to act quickly and efficiently, which they often don\u2019t, and this holds the whole process up.\nThe amount of information requested by solicitors, which I appreciate are standard documents, is also off putting for many small business owners. They will put the request to one side for later, because it seems like a big job, or they will simply avoid doing it, because it seems too hard, or they do not understand what is expected of them. In an attempt to speed the process up for our clients, we offer help with these forms and information to support them, something that I feel should be standard for business in our line of work.\nI believe that there are still many solicitors stuck in the dark ages, who aren\u2019t focused on how best to serve the client, helping them to get deal through quickly and efficiently. Some can be very particular about speaking with the agent, or rather avoiding speaking to them, when they are simply trying to speed the transaction up and chase outstanding documentation or information.\nThe introduction of 21st Century technology, such as electronic signatures, would help to speed up the process immensely.\nRather than waiting for someone to receive a hard copy, read it, sign it, and post it back. From a government perspective, some relaxation in the red tape would undoubtedly help, as there is a lot of information requested that seems unnecessary, laborious, and off-putting.\nThe final suggestion I would make is for solicitors to ensure they are more aware of the nature of the business involved in the sale and the size of the transaction being made. Often, we see hold ups where solicitors end up negotiating what are, in the grand scheme of things, pointless terms of the contract with little justification, and all this serves to do is hold up the sale and frustrate all parties involved.\nIf the government sees value in speeding up the buying process for potential homeowners, it needs to do the same for potential business owners too. This will not only have a positive impact on the economy, as the businesses will be up and running faster, but a personal benefit for the new owners who get stuck in limbo. If we all work together, the process could be faster, more efficient, and better for everyone.\nThinking of selling a business then get in touch to book your FREE valuation!",

        "raw_content": "Resveratrol, a Natural Antioxidant, Has a Protective Effect on Liver Injury Induced by Inorganic Arsenic Exposure\nZhigang Zhang,1 Li Gao,1 Yanyan Cheng,1 Jing Jiang,1 Yan Chen,1 Huijie Jiang,1 Hongxiang Yu,1 Anshan Shan,2 and Baojing Cheng2\n1College of Veterinary Medicine, Northeast Agricultural University, Harbin 150030, China\n2Laboratory of Molecular Nutrition and Immunity, The Institute of Animal Nutrition, Northeast Agricultural University, Harbin 150030, China\nReceived 28 February 2014; Revised 5 July 2014; Accepted 7 July 2014; Published 24 July 2014\nAcademic Editor: Sophia Antimisiaris\nCopyright \u00a9 2014 Zhigang Zhang et al. 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.\nResveratrol (Rev) can ameliorate cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced toxicity and oxidative stress. Arsenic trioxide (As2O3) is a known cytotoxic environmental toxicant and a potent chemotherapeutic agent. However, the mechanisms by which resveratrol protects the liver against the cytotoxic effects of As2O3 are not known. Therefore, in the present study we investigated the mechanisms involved in the action of resveratrol using a cat model in which hepatotoxicity was induced by means of As2O3 treatment. We found that pretreatment with resveratrol, administered using a clinically comparable dose regimen, reversed changes in As2O3-induced morphological and liver parameters and resulted in a significant improvement in hepatic function. Resveratrol treatment also improved the activities of antioxidant enzymes and attenuated As2O3-induced increases in reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde production. In addition, resveratrol attenuated the As2O3-induced reduction in the ratio of reduced glutathione to oxidized glutathione and the retention of arsenic in liver tissue. These findings provide a better understanding of the mechanisms whereby resveratrol modulates As2O3-induced changes in liver function and tissue morphology. They also provide a stronger rationale for the clinical utilization of resveratrol for the reduction of As2O3-induced hepatotoxicity.\nArsenic trioxide (As2O3) is a known cytotoxic environmental toxicant and is used as a potent chemotherapeutic agent for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and other cancers [1]. Retrospective case studies have shown a significant association between toxicity and the degree of retention of toxic compounds in tissues [2, 3]. Arsenic interferes with a number of organ and body functions such as the central nervous system [4], liver, and kidney [5, 6]. Liver as a major organ is responsible for the metabolism of drugs and is also the primary target for many toxic chemicals, with evidence of the highest concentration of total arsenic retention following acute arsenic toxicity [7]. In experimental animals, arsenicals induce liver injuries that cause alterations in the biochemical indices of hepatic functions, as well as changes in the morphology and apoptosis of liver cells [8, 9].\nBoth the toxic and therapeutic effects of arsenic are partially mediated by redox-sensitive enzymes and proteins. Ghosh et al. reported that the free radical mediated theory is one of the theories proposed to explain As2O3-induced injury [9]. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in normal cellular metabolism and signal transduction. However, they can cause damage at higher concentrations and induce several human pathologies, including liver cirrhosis and fibrosis [10]. Therefore, synthetic scavengers of ROS and antioxidants are to reduce arsenic-induced toxic effects.\nResveratrol (Rev) (trans-3,4\u2032,5-trihydroxystilbene) is isolated as a natural phytoalexin contained in wine and has several beneficial effects on health. Over the years, this molecule has received considerable attention for its anti-inflammatory [11], antiviral [12], and antioxidant properties [13\u201315], as well as its ability to increase lifespan in lower organisms and improve general health in mammals [16]. The main target organs of resveratrol are the liver and kidney, as has been demonstrated in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies [17]. Resveratrol exerts hepatoprotective activity against ethanol- and thioacetamide-induced acute liver damage in rats [18]. Systemic administration of resveratrol has since been shown to inhibit the initiation and growth of tumors in a wide variety of rodent cancer types [19]. Accumulating evidence also indicates that resveratrol has the capacity to exert sensitization effects when it is used in combination with cytotoxic drugs in drug-resistant tumor cells [20, 21].\nAlthough the beneficial properties of resveratrol have been well defined, the mechanisms by which resveratrol protects the liver against the cytotoxic effects of As2O3 are not known. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to evaluate whether or not resveratrol can ameliorate the toxic effects of As2O3 in terms of recovery in biochemical variables indicative of oxidative stress, tissue injuries, and reduction in liver arsenic burden. These findings could provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of action of resveratrol in modulating As2O3-induced hepatic dysfunction and provide a rationale for further clinical study of resveratrol used in combination with As2O3 during chemotherapy or as a protective agent after As2O3 exposure.\nAs2O3 parenteral solution (10\u2009mg/mL) was obtained from Harbin Yida Pharmaceutical Company Ltd. (Harbin, China). Resveratrol was provided by Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Kits used for the detection of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and glutathione disulfide (GSSG) were purchased from Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute (Nanjing, China). All other chemicals used were of the highest purity commercially available and purchased from Shanghai Biochemical and Beijing Chemical Co. Triple distilled water was used throughout the study to avoid metal contamination and for the preparation of reagents and buffers used for various biochemical assays.\n2.2. Animals and Treatment\nAs the pharmacokinetic profiles of drugs in cats and humans are similar, cats are suitable for pharmacology and toxicology studies [22, 23]. The study was performed using healthy Chinese Dragon-Li cats (12 males and 12 females) maintained in air-conditioned rooms at 21 \u00b1 4\u00b0C. The cats were housed in individual stainless steel cages (during experimental phases). Weights and ages ranged from 2.8\u20133.5\u2009kg to 1.5\u20132.0 years, respectively.\nAll animals were randomly divided into four groups: control, As2O3-treated, As2O3 + resveratrol-treated, and resveratrol-treated. All of the treatments used in the study were administered via the foreleg vein on alternate days for 3 days (i.e., days 1, 3, and 5) with measurements made on the 6th day. Cats were treated as follows: in the control group they were injected with 10\u2009mL/kg physiological saline (0.9%); in the As2O3 group they were treated with As2O3 (1\u2009mL/kg); in the As2O3 + resveratrol (3\u2009mL/kg) group they were given resveratrol (3\u2009mL/kg) 1\u2009h before As2O3 administration. The resveratrol \u201ccontrol\u201d group received three doses of resveratrol alone (3\u2009mL/kg).\nThe selection of a single dose of resveratrol was based on previous published reports, where a dose of 3\u2009mL/kg was reported to be effective in preventing diverse biological and pharmacological properties [24].\nTwenty-four hours after the last injection, all cats were killed by an overdose of pentobarbital sodium. Blood was collected and liver was rinsed in cold saline and used for evaluating various biochemical variables as well as arsenic concentrations. All study procedures were approved by Ethical Review Committees at the Northeast Agricultural University, China.\n2.3. Preparation of Plasma and Liver Parameters\nSome of the blood samples were collected into evacuated tubes containing heparinic solution as anticoagulant and then centrifuged at 3000\u2009g for 10\u2009min. The activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and the levels of total bilirubin and cholesterol were detected using a UniCel DxC800 Synchron chemistry system (Bekman, USA).\n2.4. Collection of Liver Samples and Biochemical Determination\nLiver tissues were rapidly excised and homogenized in phosphate-buffered saline pH 7.4 using an Ultrathurax T25 Homogenisator. After centrifugation at 10,000\u2009g for 10\u2009min at 4\u00b0C, the supernatant was used for biochemical determination. The MDA, GSH, and GSSG levels, hepatic proteins, and SOD, CAT, and GPX activities in tissue were determined according to the manufacturer\u2019s instructions. The GSH/GSSG ratio was calculated as follows: ratio = [(GSH) \u2212 2(GSSG)]/(GSSG).\n2.5. Measurement of ROS Level in Liver\nThe amount of ROS in liver was measured by the method of 2\u2032,7\u2032-dichlorofluorescein diacetate, which is converted into highly fluorescent dichlorofluorescein by cellular peroxides (including hydrogen peroxide). The assay was performed as described in the literature [25]. Fluorescence was determined at 488\u2009nm excitation and 525\u2009nm emission wavelength, using a fluorescence plate reader (Perkin-Elmer, LS-55, Buckinghamshire, UK).\n2.6. Morphological Examination\nLiver tissues from cats were fixed in 10% formaldehyde for overnight at 37\u00b0C. Tissues were cut into blocks of 3\u2009mm thickness. Blocks were then embedded in paraffin. Sections (5\u2009\u03bcm thickness) were cut in the coronal plane and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Morphological examination was conducted under a light microscope (BX-FM: Olympus Corp, Tokyo, Japan).\n2.7. Determination of Total Arsenic in the Liver\nA liver tissue sample of approximately 0.5\u2009g was digested in a solution consisting of a mixture of HNO3-HCLO4 for 2 days at 130\u00b0C. After HNO3 was removed by evaporation, digested samples were diluted with deionized water. Arsenic concentrations were measured using atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS930, Beijing Jitian Instrument Company, Beijing, China) [26].\nData represent the mean \u00b1 SEM. Statistical analyses were undertaken by one-way ANOVA and the Student\u2019s -test. A two-tailed was considered as being significant.\nThe liver ROS level increased on arsenic exposure (Figure 1(a)). Pretreatment with resveratrol was beneficial in significantly reducing tissue ROS levels in the As2O3-treated group.\nFigure 1: Arsenic-induced change in ROS, GSH, and GSH/GSSG ratio in liver and their response to pretreatment with resveratrol. Values are mean \u00b1 SEM; versus control group and # versus As2O3-treated group.\nWe analyzed the overall levels of GSH and GSSG in liver and calculated their ratio and found that As2O3 treatment significantly reduced the levels of GSH (Figure 1(b)) and the GSH/GSSG ratio (Figure 1(c)), whereas resveratrol treatment attenuated this reduction. Treatment with resveratrol alone did not cause any significant changes in the GSH/GSSG ratio relative to the control.\nFigure 2(a) shows the effect of resveratrol on hepatic MDA levels. We found a significant increase in liver MDA after arsenic exposure. Pretreatment with resveratrol resulted in a pronounced decrease in MDA level relative to arsenic exposed animals, suggesting a beneficial role of the resveratrol on lipid peroxidation.\nFigure 2: Arsenic-induced changes in SOD, GPX, CAT, and MDA in liver and their response to pretreatment with resveratrol. Values are mean \u00b1 SEM; versus control group and # versus As2O3-treated group.\nFigure 2 depicts the effect of pretreatment with resveratrol on the antioxidant enzyme systems SOD (Figure 2(b)), GPX (Figure 2(c)), and CAT (Figure 2(d)). There was a significant depletion of SOD, GPX, and CAT activity after arsenic exposure. Treatment with resveratrol prevented the depletion of SOD, GPX, and CAT activity.\nTreatment with arsenic caused a significant increase in the total bilirubin, cholesterol, AST, and ALT levels, relative to the control (Table 1). However, treatment with resveratrol alone did not cause any significant changes in the activities of AST and ALT as compared with the control; pretreatment with resveratrol resulted in recovery in the above-mentioned biochemical variables.\nTable 1: The effect of resveratrol on As2O3-induced changes in serum biochemical parameters.\nThe biochemical alterations mentioned above could be correlated with the histological changes in the liver shown in Figure 3. Histopathology of liver in the control group revealed a normal structure with a regular arrangement of hepatocytes with clearly visible nuclei and a characteristic pattern of hexagonal lobules (Figure 3(a)). After As2O3 treatment the liver exhibited serious pathological alterations such as the presence of increased cytoplasmic vacuolization, focal necrosis, and inflammatory cell infiltration (Figures 3(b) and 3(c)). The livers of resveratrol-treated cats (Figure 3(d)) showed good protection against hepatocellular necrosis, with a regular arrangement of hepatocytes and a slight cytoplasmic vacuolization around the central vein; hepatocytes of animals treated only with resveratrol had a normal morphology (data not shown).\nFigure 3: Liver histology in the control animals (a), As2O3 group (b) and (c), and As2O3 + resveratrol group (d) (H&E, \u00d7100). Increased cytoplasmic vacuolization, focal necrosis, and inflammatory cell infiltration were noted in (b) and (c). (d) showed slight cytoplasmic vacuolization.\nFigure 4 shows the effect of pretreatment with resveratrol on arsenic concentrations in liver. Exposure to arsenic resulted in a significant increase in the arsenic concentration of the liver relative to the control. Administration of resveratrol significantly reduced the liver arsenic concentration.\nFigure 4: Total arsenic retention in cat livers. Data are mean \u00b1 SEM; versus control group and # versus As2O3-treated group.\nThe mechanisms by which As2O3 causes hepatic dysfunction are not yet completely understood, but inducting the production ROS in tissues is one of the reasons [27, 28]. The amount of ROS in cells is dependent on both the production of ROS by the mitochondrial electron transport chain and their removal by ROS-detoxifying enzymes. Recently, some researchers have evaluated the effects of arsenic intermediate metabolites (monomethylarsonous acid, , and trivalent dimethylarsinous acid, ) on the induction of ROS. It has been clearly confirmed that the generation of ROS is specifically induced in the endoplasmic reticulum by exposure to , while previous studies have shown that induces ROS generation specifically through inhibition of the activities of complexes II and IV in mitochondria [29, 30]. In accordance with previous study, it was observed in our research that ROS level was markedly increased after arsenic exposure [31]. However, the role of resveratrol in mediating hepatic dysfunction induced by As2O3 is not well understood. Our study demonstrated that the addition of resveratrol improved the protection of the liver against the cytotoxic effects of this agent, including hepatic function; this was suggested by liver parameters and liver histological changes. The protective effects of resveratrol against As2O3 may be attributable to its ability to modulate cellular redox. This suggestion is supported by the finding that resveratrol treatment persevered the activities of SOD, CAT, and GPX, inhibited As2O3-induced increases in ROS production, and attenuated As2O3-induced reduction in the ratio of GSH/GSSG in liver. MDA (the end product of lipid peroxidation) is known as an index that can be used to monitor the oxidative damage. However, in the present study pretreatment with resveratrol induced the marked decrease in MDA levels relative to the As2O3-treated group, which might be attributable to the above findings. These data related to the beneficial effects of resveratrol could be explained by the important role that it plays in improving the activity of mitochondrial complexes I, III, and IV [32], as well as imbalance in the levels of ROS and antioxidants [33, 34]. Also, it has been proposed that resveratrol indirectly activates PGC-1\u03b1, which can regulate mitochondrial energetics and induce the expression of many ROS-detoxifying enzymes including SOD, CAT, and GPX [35, 36]. As resveratrol can effectively protect liver by inhibiting As2O3-induced ROS production, it may decrease the risk of cancer patients developing secondary malignancies. Since chemotherapy can induce increased ROS production which causes genetic instability, then the risk of leukemia and cancer will be increased [37].\nOne of the most interesting observations in our study was the ability of resveratrol to reduce the concentration of arsenic in the target tissue, which may play a crucial role in its hepatoprotective effect. Protection against arsenic in human cells has been shown to be associated with GSH-dependent efflux from the cell [38]. Depleting GSH has been reported to increase sensitivity to arsenic and its retention in mammalian cells [39, 40]. To explain our findings, we hypothesize that GSH may be maintained in hepatocytes after pretreatment with resveratrol, as suggested by the concentration of GSH in liver in our results [41].\nFurthermore, it is plausible that improving the redox status by pretreatment with resveratrol may play an important role in enhancing the efflux of arsenic in our study. Conversely, resveratrol has been shown to impair the efflux of cytotoxic drugs in human hepatoma cells, suggesting competitive inhibition of arsenic-transport membrane protein by resveratrol in tumor cells. In addition, combination of resveratrol with As2O3 may act as a remedial therapy for protecting As2O3-treated subjects and individuals exposed to arsenicals from the hepatotoxicity of As2O3 as well as acting as an anticancer agent itself.\nIn summary, findings from the present and other studies suggest that pharmacological modulators of the redox pathway, such as resveratrol, may be feasible agents for ameliorating As2O3-induced hepatotoxicity and hepatic dysfunction. Our data support the notion that the protective properties of resveratrol against As2O3-induced oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity were realized through decreasing the retention of arsenic and improving the redox status of liver tissue. However, further clinical studies are needed to provide data on the clinical use of resveratrol in cases involving arsenic exposure and in an APL patient model.\nZhigang Zhang, Li Gao, and Yanyan Cheng have contributed equally to this study.\nThis study was supported by National Science Foundation Committee of China (31101868), the Program for New Century Excellent Talents in Heilongjiang Provincial University (1253-NCET-007), and the Open Projects of Key Laboratory of Feed Science, College of Heilongjiang Province.\nS.

According to a recent study, asthma increases the risk of complications during pregnancy and delivery as the patients suffer more often from preeclampsia (PE) and run a higher risk of giving birth to underweight babies. These and other complications during pregnancy and delivery cannot be explained by hereditary or environmental factors, says study.\nAsthma is a common disease caused by chronic inflammation in the lungs with symptoms of coughing and breathlessness. Using data from the Swedish birth, prescribed drug and patient registers, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have been able to examine the link between asthma in pregnant women and pregnancy/delivery outcomes. Studying more than one million births to just over 700,000 women between 2001 and 2013, they found that 10% of the babies born had a mother with asthma. \u201cFour percent of all pregnant women develop preeclampsia. We found that the risk of preeclampsia is 17% higher in women with asthma compared to women without asthma\u201d, says the study\u2019s lead author Dr Gustaf Rejno, obstetrician and doctoral student at Karolinska Institutet\u2019s Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics.\nAdditionally, women with asthma were more likely to have underweight babies, instrumental deliveries, caesarean sections and shorter pregnancies. To ascertain whether the complications could be attributed to hereditary or environmental factors, the researchers also identified the women\u2019s asthma-free cousins and sisters who had given birth during the same period. On comparing the groups they found that the correlations between maternal asthma and complications during pregnancy and delivery held.\n\u201cIt seems to be the asthma per se that causes these complications,\u201d says Dr Rejno. \u201cThis means that well-controlled asthma during pregnancy could reduce the relative incidence of complications during pregnancy and childbirth. In an earlier study we saw that this was indeed the case.\u201d The study has been published in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice.\nWhy breastfeed?

The first production Mustang rolled off the assembly line in Dearborn, Michigan in March 1964 and was introduced to the public at the New York World's Fair on 17th April 1964. It was, and remains, one of the most successful product launches in automotive history. The Mustang sold over one million units in its first 18 months on the market. 1966 was the last year Ford offered the original Mustang Fastback and it proved to be a stellar year in sales. In all, about 35,000 Mustang Fastbacks were produced in 1966 with just 7889 being 'Luxury' versions consequently making this model highly sought after by Mustang collectors. The '66 model Fastback featured a re-designed grill, new instrument cluster and new styled wheels. An automatic gearbox option was also introduced for the V8. Although other Mustangs in 1966 sported the Mustang Pony emblem directly behind the front wheel wells, the GT Mustang featured a special GT emblem in its place. One of the most distinct features of the 1966 Fastback Mustang is the car's exit vents, which work with the vehicle's fully functional 'silent-flo' interior ventilation system.\nThis superb 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback, fitted with an automatic gearbox, has been in the UK for almost thirty five years and has recently been the subject of a complete respray as well as having many parts fitted including a new carburettor. It has had a recent full service and is ready for the road. Finished in red with white interior, this 289 Fastback is supplied with a V5C registration document, an MoT test certificate which expires in October 2016 and a number of old MoT certificates. The best shape Mustang ever built with an exhaust system that sounds awesome.\nLot 232 - 1979 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II\nLot 234 - 1989 BMW 635 CSi Highline\nREF 12 1984 Ford Capri Mk.

        "raw_content": "Review: The Oregon Trail: A new American Journey\nBy Clarke C. Jones\nby Rinker Buck (Simon & Schuster)\nAUTHOR RINKER BUCK DESCRIBES himself as a \u201cdivorced boozehound with a bad driving record and emerging symptoms of low self-esteem.\u201d His brother, Nick, is a former ski instructor, part-time actor and carpenter. In the first pages of his book The Oregon Trail: A New American Journey, Buck (rightfully) wonders why two middle-aged men decided to spend four months, side by side, on a butt-breaking wooden seat maneuvering a covered wagon, pulled by three mules, from Missouri to Oregon.\nHis audacious plan was to follow as closely as possible the old Oregon Trail, the 2,000-mile route by which thousands of American settlers migrated west in the 1840s and 1850s. As Buck notes, \u201cNaivet\u00e9 is the mother of adventure.\u201d\nReaders can be glad the two men went to the trouble, as The Oregon Trail is early American history packaged as an entertaining travelogue. Buck extensively researched the history of the Oregon Trail, which, he writes, was \u201coriginally called the Platte River Road and was a main fur-trapping route to the Rockies that passed through the Arapaho & Sioux tribal lands in western Nebraska.\u201d It wasn\u2019t just one distinct route but veered off in different directions, depending on the destination of the homesteaders, becoming, for example, the California Trail for those wishing to head south and toward the coast.\nAccording to Buck, \u201calmost the entire 2,100-mile expanse of the Oregon Trail\u2014even where it has been covered over by modern highways or railroad tracks\u2014has been meticulously charted and marked, with long, undeveloped stretches now preserved as a National Historic Trail. Except for two bad spots of suburban sprawl around Scottsbluff, Nebraska, and Boise, Idaho, most of the trail is still accessible along remote farm and ranch roads.\u201d And that\u2019s the way the brothers trundled through the West. Rinker usually slept in the wagon or on the ground while Nick bunked in barns (with owner permission).\nThe original trek was arduous and dangerous, of course, what with mountain and river crossings, bad weather and disease. We get a sense of the hardships suffered by the settlers because the Bucks experienced a few themselves during their summer sojourn, including bad storms, the daily feeding and care of the mules, wagon breakdowns in the middle of nowhere and getting lost. There was no knowing what was around the next bend. Going up and down steep mountain passes with poor braking was risky, but Nick\u2019s driving skills spared the pair from any disasters.\nBuck weaves his not-always pretty personal story into the history of the trail, and the trip, and the combination buoys this book. He is not afraid to show the reader his flaws\u2014and when he and his brother finally reach Baker City, Ore., he does not pretend to be a changed man. But the odyssey did have its benefits: \u201cMy habitual impatience was suspended to deal with frustration after frustration on the trail\u2026and I indulged in a wonderful summer of romance and grit.\u201d Put the soundtrack to the TV miniseries Lonesome Dove on a music device, and read.\n\u2014Clarke C. Jones\nOriginally published in the December 2015 issue of American History magazine. Subscribe here.\nAdventurers, American History, Book Reviews, oregon trail, Westward Expansion",

For this reason it has become necessary to undertake measures for conservation of the fixtures in the above-named rooms.\nDuration of restoration: End of April 2019\nBad (c) Schlo\u00df Sch\u00f6nbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H, Foto: Alexander Eugen Koller\nToilette (c) Schlo\u00df Sch\u00f6nbrunn Kultur- und Betriebsges.m.b.H., Foto: Sascha Rieger\nNotable features include the lavatory bowl in the shape of a dolphin and the small washbasin. Empress Elisabeth was however not the first member of the imperial family to enjoy the comfort of a flush lavatory, as has frequently been assumed. As early as 1835 an \u2018odourless convenience on the English model\u2019 was installed on the second floor of the Leopoldine Wing of the Vienna Hofburg for Archduchess Sophie, Elisabeth\u2019s mother-in-law.\nThe first indications of a bathroom being installed in the Hofburg date from 1826, with an entry in an inventory recording a \u2018bathing room\u2019 redecorated in 1810/12 in the apartments of Empress Maria Ludovica, the third wife of Emperor Franz II (I).\nAs part of the remodelling undertaken in 1876 Elisabeth also had a bathroom installed, in a small room that had hitherto been used as a storeroom, immediately adjacent to the lavatory. Most of the room\u2019s original features have been preserved, including the galvanised copper bath tub. A notable feature is the original linoleum flooring, put down to prevent water damage to the parquet. The walls of the bathroom were decorated with floral textile hangings, which are still extant today though concealed beneath the replica hangings for reasons of conservation. The mirrors are decorated with painted peonies.\nNext to: Bergl Room",

        "raw_content": "School district implements mandatory suicide training\nBy By Jerzy Shedlock\nNewsSoldotna High School\nWhen the staff at Soldotna High School discussed suicide as part of a newly mandated training requirement, all of them shared a personal story.\n\u201cWe let the teachers discuss experiences in their lives; people who had either committed or talked about committing (suicide). And walking around the room listening to the conversations, there were a lot stories about students or friends \u2026 who had affected their lives,\u201d said Erin Neisinger, Soldotna High School counselor.\nA Senate bill passed earlier this year during the legislative session prompted school districts across Alaska, including the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District, to initiate mandatory suicide training for secondary school employees.\nSen. Bettye Davis, D-Anchorage, sponsored Senate Bill 137, the Jason Flatt Act. The bill requires at least two hours of training for school personnel who work with students in grades seven through 12; it became law on Aug. 21.\nThe Legislature appropriated $450,000 toward school-based suicide prevention efforts for fiscal year 2013, said Kate Burkhart, executive director of the Statewide Suicide Prevention Council, in an email.\n\u201cIt\u2019s the first time that I\u2019m aware of, or at least in a really long time, that any money for suicide prevention has come to the (Alaska) Department of Education,\u201d said Sharon Fishel, counseling and suicide prevention coordinator at the state Department of Education & Early Development.\nThe suicide rate for Alaskans age 15-24 was 46 per 100,000 people in 2010. Nationally, the rates are recorded at different age groups, but the gap is apparent, with 7.8 per 100,000 people for age 15-19 and 12.5 per 100,000 people for age 20-24, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\nPrior to the Senate bill\u2019s passage, the school district\u2019s teachers did not receive suicide training, said Margaret Griffin, another Soldotna High School counselor.\nUntil last month, the state lacked approved suicide-prevention materials. Lawmakers chose the Jason Foundation \u2014 from which SB137 got its name \u2014 to meet the two-hour requirement, and the state sent out the organization\u2019s materials to each secondary school in late July.\nSchool administrators within the borough focused this first year of mandatory training on awareness, as a stigma is often associated with suicide, Neisinger said.\n\u201cDoing this training grants the staff more skills and confidence to say something about (suicide); a lot of times people aren\u2019t comfortable addressing the problem with students,\u201d she said.\nThe school district has had in-house protocols for students it believes are at-risk of harming themselves or others established for some time.\nThe Jason Foundation materials are separated into seven modules. The first module is a series of videos about suicide awareness and outreach. Staff can watch the videos and take an online quiz afterward.\nNeisinger and Griffin decided to facilitate a discussion about the module at their high school.\n\u201cIt was a bit more personal than just pressing play on a video,\u201d Griffin said.\nTeachers were receptive to the seminar approach, they said. Following the training, teachers emailed the counselors and thanked them for taking the training one step further than required.\nGriffin said her husband, a local middle school teacher, and other district staff have reacted positively toward the video-and-quiz format.\nLooking forward, Neisinger said she would like to examine other options and involve students in the training \u2014 the Jason Foundation also offers materials for students.\nShe would like to look into the web-based Kognito At-Risk materials, another program approved in September as the result of the a joint advocacy effort of the Prevention Council, the Alaska Mental Health Board and the Alaska Association of Student Governments.\nKognito uses virtual role-playing scenarios to train personnel on how to identify and engage students who are contemplating suicide. But the new law requires suicide training for middle school as well as high school employees, and Kognito is intended for use only in high schools.\n\u201cI want to look at Kognito and compare the two,\u201d Neisinger said.\nAn issue with the current program is its focus on a single module. Neisinger hopes that throughout the school year, they will reference back to the Jason Foundation materials to gauge its effectiveness, she said.\nOverall, the counselors agreed that the teachers appreciated the new training.\n\u201cWe have to do all these mandatory trainings each year, and we didn\u2019t want them to see it as a negative thing, as just another training,\u201d Griffin said. \u201cWe wanted it to be positive and meaningful.\u201d\nJerzy Shedlock is a reporter for the Peninsula Clarion.\nAnchor Point Girl Scout visits Peru",

        "raw_content": "Facts about sleep disorders\nLoss of sleep can cause problems at home or on the job. It can lead to serious or even fatal accidents. The National Sleep Foundation notes that:\nBetween 50 and 70 million U.S. adults have some type of sleep or wakefulness disorder.\nSleep problems get worse as you get older.\nPoor sleep cost billions of dollars a year. This is from healthcare expenses and lost productivity.\nDrowsy drivers cause about 40,000 vehicle crashes in the U.S. every year. This includes more than 1,500 deaths.\nThere are many types of sleep disorders. They can affect health and quality of life. The disorders include:\nSleep is not just resting or taking a break from busy routines. Sleep is a key part of good health. Getting enough sleep may help the body recover from illness and injury. Not getting enough sleep over a period of time is linked to health problems. They include obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.\nThe mental benefits of sleep are also important. Sleep problems can make daily life feel more stressful and less productive. Some people with chronic trouble sleeping (insomnia) are more likely to have mental health problems. Sleep problems are also tied to depression. In a research survey, people who had trouble getting enough sleep had trouble doing tasks that use memory and learning.\nSleep needs vary from person to person. But most healthy adults need about 7 to 9 hours of sleep a night. You may need more or better sleep if you:\nHave trouble staying alert during quiet activities\nAre irritable with coworkers, family, or friends\nHave trouble focusing or remembering facts\nHave trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, or wake up early and can't get back to sleep\nGetting treatment for a sleep disorder\nFor those who suffer from sleep disorders, help is available from many sources. Sleep problems can be treated or managed by different kinds of healthcare providers. You may be treated by a healthcare provider who specializes in any of these:\nYou can also find a healthcare provider who is certified in sleep medicine by the American Board of Sleep Medicine. Talk with your healthcare provider about finding a sleep disorder program.",

        "raw_content": "Mike Huckabee Blames 'Thugs Out On The Street' For Trump Rally Violence\nThe former presidential candidate ramps up his defense of the Republican front-runner.\nMIAMI -- Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) on Saturday condemned in stark terms the protesters who disrupted a Donald Trump rally in Chicago. The Republican presidential front-runner's campaign canceled the event on Friday night because of security concerns, after pro- and anti-Trump factions scuffled and five people were arrested.\nAsked during a brief interview whether he shared the concerns of Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) that Trump had created a \u201ctoxic environment\u201d by frequently imploring his supporters to respond violently to protesters, Huckabee scoffed.\n\u201cNo, I think it\u2019s ridiculous to blame Trump for a bunch of thugs out on the street-- people coming in and trying to shut down somebody else\u2019s speech,\u201d Huckabee told The Huffington Post. \u201cIf they don\u2019t like Donald Trump, vote for somebody else, and don\u2019t show up. And leave the place with empty seats. But to try to shut someone down, that\u2019s not how America works.\u201d\nHuckabee\u2019s use of the word \u201cthugs\u201d to describe the Chicago protesters echoed Trump\u2019s own language. \u201cThe organized group of people, many of them thugs, who shut down our First Amendment Rights in Chicago, have totally energized America!\u201d the real estate mogul said in a Twitter post.\nThe former Arkansas governor has been increasingly vocal in defending Trump in recent weeks.\nShortly before he ended his own 2016 presidential bid after earning less than 2 percent of the vote less than 2 percent of the vote in the Iowa caucuses, Huckabee appeared alongside former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) at a Trump event in Des Moines and has since defended Trump against accusations that the Republican frontrunner is a racist.\nHuckabee\u2019s daughter, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, joined the Trump campaign as a senior adviser last month.\nThough Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas) have joined Kasich in condemning Trump for encouraging violence against dissenters at his rallies, Huckabee contended in the interview that the protesters deserved all of the blame for what happened in Chicago.\n\u201cIt was clearly a very orchestrated, organized attempt to shut down Trump\u2019s rally, and I think it\u2019s really indicative that the left in America -- they\u2019re not interested in diversity, tolerance or free speech,\u201d Huckabee said. \u201cIf there\u2019s an idea that\u2019s not theirs, their response to it is not to overwhelm it with more votes. It\u2019s to shut down the other side. And that was really unfortunate.\u201d\nHuckabee was in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood on Saturday for a Newsmax TV appearance.\nThe Florida resident said that he had already taken advantage of early voting in Tuesday\u2019s state primary but would not say which candidate earned his support.\n\u201cI was on the ballot in Florida, you know,\u201d he reminded a reporter.\nDonald Trump Rally Shut Down In Chicago\nCo-creator and executive producer, 'Embeds'\nDonald Trump 2016 Election Elections 2016 Donald Trump 2016 Mike Huckabee\nA protester raises his fist to supporters of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump before a rally on the campus of the University of Illinois-Chicago, Friday, March 11, 2016, in Chicago.

The building is situated on a small site, thus the design concept needed to have a compact but efficient linear layout. Incorporating natural daylighting and views to the outdoors was very important during design. The plan layout and use of an internal landscaped courtyard allows all classrooms and major corridors to have views with abundant natural daylight, while still maintaining an economical, compact floor plan.\nThe project delivery was through a construction manager in order to facilitate an accelerated schedule and to take advantage of using one construction manager at risk for multiple projects in the district occurring at the same time. This resulted in an accelerated completion of the school in time for the fall semester by shaving two months off of the construction schedule.\n\u2022 3D Visuzalization\n2010 Building of American Network Honoree",

        "raw_content": "Half Year Trading Update Notice of Half Year Results\nGood progress in renewed public sector focus and encouraging outlook\nIdox plc (AIM: IDOX), a leading supplier of specialist information management solutions and services to the public sector, today provides an update on trading for the six months ended 30 April 2017.\nRevenues have grown by 19%, principally as a result of the initial contributions from the acquisitions of Idox Health (formerly 6PM, completed 31 January 2017), Open Objects, (part of the Public Sector division, completed 26 July 2016) and Rippleffect (part of the Digital division, completed 22 August 2016).\nAdjusted EBITDA* for the first six months is in line with management expectations and slightly ahead of the same period last year. Overall, the Group remains on track to deliver in line with its expectations for the year as a whole reflecting the benefits of these acquisitions, organic growth from recent contract wins, and seasonality.\nOur renewed strategic focus on, and investment in, growth opportunities in the public sector has led to good progress in a number of areas, with contract wins in social care, health and local government. Idox Elections has been particularly noteworthy; we delivered services to all 32 Scottish councils in the recent local council elections, including print services, postal vote management and, for the second time, e-counting software. We also provided services to over 80 councils across England and Wales. We expect to be very busy in the forthcoming General Election providing additional revenues in the second half of the year.\nThe new digital services platform, enabled by recent acquisitions, is underpinning our public sector focus and investment for future growth. The platform was initiated with building regulation and planning applications, and is now offering over 30 citizen centric services.\nIdox Health traded in line with our acquisition expectations, with integration on track and good contract wins since acquisition; it has several cross selling opportunities in its pipeline for delivery in the remainder of the financial year.\nGroup net debt at the half year stood at \u00a328.2m (30 April 2016: \u00a313.9m; 31 October 2016: \u00a325.0m). This was after utilising the facility for the acquisition of Open Objects (\u00a33.4m paid in cash and upto a further \u00a31.6m will be drawn down in 2018, as per the earnout) and Rippleffect (\u00a32.0m) plus the Maltese bond of \u00a311.6m acquired with the acquisition of 6PM.\nThe Board retains a positive outlook for the year as a whole; this is supported by anticipated full second half contributions from 2016-17 acquisitions (including Idox Health), the benefits of ongoing 'one Idox' integration activity, further progress with the digital services platform, as well as recent contract wins together with a strong pipeline of new orders, and also strong elections activity in the second half.\nThe Board intends to report the Group's half year results on 6 June 2017.\n*Adjusted is defined as earnings before amortisation, restructuring, acquisition, corporate finance and share option costs.\nAndrew Riley, Chief Executive of Idox said:\n\"We have made solid progress in the first half. We have continued to build on our areas of core expertise within the public sector, with significant investment in our digital services platform for future growth.\nThe outlook for the remainder of the year is encouraging and in line with our expectations; we have good visibility for our second half performance, which is expected to benefit from several positives, not least strong elections activity, the phasing of new contracts and the realisation of the benefits of acquisition and organic investment.\"",

        "raw_content": "Dan DiDio On DC's Future\nAction Comics [1938] / 11 Feb 2008 1:53 PM PST\nIGN Comics: I know Sinestro Corps War was a huge hit for you guys, and I think one of the reasons people really bought into it and devoured that story is because it had a really tight structure. Did Sinestro Corps War inform how you're approaching Final Crisis?\nDiDio: Absolutely. If you look at it and hear the things we're discussing, when you go wider, you have to get more people involved and you get more interpretations on how the story is supposed to unfold. When you work with a smaller group of creators, you have a much tighter control over what the message of the story is, and a much tighter sense of what that story is, and how to build momentum and excitement in that story. So we're trying to do that right now, and we have a number of things that will be occurring throughout the DCU that really have that tightness, but also that large sense of scope.\nSo when you see Final Crisis occurring, it'll have a tight but incredibly expansive story in regards to what's being covered and the characters involved, but there are only going to be a handful of creators that will be working through the Final Crisis story. Kurt has a stranglehold in a very good way on Trinity and Trinity's story for the year run of the book, and more importantly, you'll see similar things like that occurring in the Batman group of books, the Superman group of books, and even more things building along those lines in some of the other series over the course of the next year.\nIGN Comics: It seems like in a lot of ways, in 2007, you guys were ratcheting up everything for '08. Is 2008 a year that you guys have been building up to for a long time now?\nDiDio: 2008 is something we've been working up to, yes, for a very long time. Primarily because there was always a trilogy of Crises we were building towards. We have a series called Final Crisis for a reason, and what comes out from it is a rather succinct version of what the DC Universe will be for the foreseeable future.\nIGN Comics: What would you say to fans that are getting weary of the idea that one crossover leads to the next?\nDiDio: I think weariness is only created when the story that's being told isn't as compelling as they hoped it would be. We're in the periodical business. That's like saying, \"Oh well, is the next arc of Superman going to be as great as the last arc of Superman? Or will two arcs from now be better than the last?\" You know we're in the business of telling periodical stories, so therefore, our goal is to always bring some sort of strong conclusion to the story you're reading, but also leave enough threads to be able to build future stories from it. Maybe not from the next arc, but always down the road.\nIGN Comics: It seems like the weekly format really takes advantage of all the possibilities of serialization, in a way that perhaps the monthly does not. How will the interplay from week to week in Trinity differ from that of Countdown and 52?\nDiDio: Countdown and 52 really played with the calendar. With 52, the story became about 52 Multiverses, but actually it was about 52 weeks in our characters' lives, and each issue represented one of those weeks. It was really time based. Same thing with Countdown. Countdown was counting down to Final Crisis. It started at a particular time, and each month of story and continuity took place in an actual month.\nWithin Trinity, it's actually a period of time \u2013 we're not defining the exact amount of time the story takes place in \u2013 but it does take place in a period of time, and more importantly, it's the serialization of the story that matters most, and the cliffhangers and the things that bring you back from week to week. It's similar to the old serials that were run in the movies way back in the day.\nIGN Comics: So you're not placing any artificial constraints on the story like you did with 52, and you plan on really playing with this serialized format?\nDiDio: Yeah, again, we've done that already, and the goal is, if we're going to come back with weeklies, to change the format enough to make it seem fresh so people want to invest their time and money into buying into a 52-part story.",

        "raw_content": "Chicken pox vaccine OK for children with kidney disease\nResearchers at the Johns Hopkins Children\u0092s Center report that two doses of the varicella vaccine for chicken pox given one to two months apart can be safe and effective in children with chronic kidney disease.\nThe findings, reported in the January issue of Pediatric Nephrology, are critical for chronic kidney disease patients, particularly children who will eventually undergo a kidney transplant. After transplantation, immunosuppressive medications put these children at high risk for severe chicken pox complications, including pneumonia, brain inflammation, and death.\n\"We recommend pediatric nephrologists include chicken pox vaccination as an important component of pre-end-stage renal disease and end-stage renal disease care,\" said the study\u0092s lead author, Susan L. Furth, M.D, Ph.D., a pediatric nephrologist at the Children\u0092s Center.\nVaricella vaccine contains small doses of weakened strains of the chicken pox virus that activate immune system \"memory\" and mount a protective response to subsequent exposures.\nIn healthy children under 12 years of age, vaccination in a single dose is recommended, while two doses are recommended for adolescents. Without vaccination, infections in children whose immune systems have been weakened by a genetic disorder, disease, or medical treatment can cause serious complications.\nIn a multi-center, prospective, three-year clinical trial, Hopkins researchers, with the cooperation of the Southwest Pediatric Nephrology Study Group, identified 96 children with chronic kidney disease with no history of chicken pox. About half of these patients did not have detectable varicella antibodies. Each child received two injections of varicella vaccine, rather than the one dose typically given to healthy children. The doses were administered four to eight weeks apart.\nOne child developed chicken pox following a known exposure. There were no reported serious side effects following vaccination. Eleven patients developed a rash associated with the vaccine, and seven patients reported mild to moderate redness or soreness at the site of injection.\nOver three years of follow-up, researchers report each child \u2013 including 16 children who received kidney transplants following vaccination \u2013 maintained the varicella antibody, and 87 percent retained antibody levels for more than three years. Although kidney transplant recipients tended to have lower varicella antibody levels during the first two years of follow-up, researchers report that antibody levels increased over time.\nChildren\u0092s Center pediatric nephrologist Barbara A. Fivush, M.D., and researchers from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Columbia Hospital at Medical City, and Merck & Co. contributed to the report. The study was funded by a grant from Merck & Co.\nJessica Collins | EurekAlert!",

This means the market is becoming even more saturated, so investors need to be aware of how to adapt their properties and their marketing approach to secure tenants and the maximum rental income.It is true to say that the student market is more competitive than ever. The Universities are building more and more purpose-built accommodation to add to this competition, but a plus point for landlords is that not all students want to live like this and still enjoy the freedom of living in individual houses with select friends, enjoying the experience of living away from home.As with any property investment, location is key.

If you are headed towards college soon, it would be encouraged to look into purchasing a laptop computer over a desktop computer. With the development of technology and laptops, desktop computers do not have the advantage they once did.

        "raw_content": "Watch Your Offenses!\nHave you ever been offended by someone? You\u2019re probably thinking, \u201cOkay Courtnaye, is that a trick question?\u2019 LOL! I know\u2026I know\u2026but I have to ask. Trust me, if you haven\u2019t been offended yet, this post will help you when the time does comes. However, for those who have been through it or are going through it right now, I want to warn you to watch your offenses!\nI get it! People will say things and do things that can actually hurt, cut like a knife, and make your head spin in anger and frustration. It happens. I know. But when it does, I want to tell you that the ball has just rolled into your court. And guess what? The spotlight is on you! So\u2026what are you doing to do\u2026Christian woman?\nYou could let them have a piece of your mind, or argue back and forth with them, hate on them, don\u2019t talk, withhold love and affection, backbite, slander them, act mean, or entertain negative thoughts in your mind about them. But what good will that actually do? Essentially, if you\u2019re a woman of conviction, it will only cause you to feel condemnation, low, and frustrated with the fact that you didn\u2019t respond properly. And on the biblical side, it\u2019s none other than giving into sin.\nDon\u2019t give the enemy access! Fight to press through the offense. Proverbs 12:16 says, \u201cA fool is quick-tempered, but a wise person stays calm when insulted.\u201d (NLT) So don\u2019t be a fool, sis. Instead, be wise and stay calm. Don\u2019t let people get the best of you. YOU\u2026be the bigger person. YOU\u2026forgive. YOU\u2026respond like a Christian. I know it\u2019s not easy, but with Christ...we can do this!\nAlso, prepare yourself before offense strikes. Be proactive, and not reactive. Read the Scriptures and books on how to deal with overcoming offenses (like John Bevere\u2019s book entitled, \u201cThe Bait of Satan: Your Response Determines Your Future\u201d). This will help you to respond properly (like Christ) when it happens.\nAnd I will never stop telling you, \u201cGo talk to God about it.\u201d I do it all the time. I had an experience where someone told me what another person said about me that could\u2019ve been offensive. What did I do? I talked to God about it. And I was as real as I could be about the situation with my Father. I also forgave the person and prayed for the individual and moved on. I chose to watch my offense. I was not going to allow it to weigh me down and affect what God was doing in my life. I didn\u2019t give into the bait.\nRemember\u2026this Christian walk is about walking with God. It\u2019s about a relationship. So tell Him what goes on in your life. When life hurts or people do things that offend you, talk to your Father about it. He\u2019s really the only One who can fix it completely. If the person is doing wrong or being mean, let God handle it. Romans 12:19 says, \u201cDear friends, never avenge yourselves. Leave that to God. For it is written, \u2018I will take vengeance; I will repay those who deserve it,\u2019 says the Lord.\u201d And verse 21 says, \u201cDon\u2019t let evil get the best of you, but conquer evil by doing good.\u201d (NLT) Give it to God. He\u2019ll take care of it and show you what to do in response to it.\nListen. Offenses are going to come, but that\u2019s when you have to make a conscious decision that you\u2019re not going to allow it to stunt your progress or love walk. It\u2019s so easy to love those who are kind and loveable. Yet, Jesus calls us to love the un-loveable, show mercy, and forgive those who trespass against us. He said, \u201cIf you love only those who love you, what good is that?\u201d (Matthew 5:46) So learn to shake it off and take heed to the warning of what John Bevere\u2019s subtitle says, \u201cYour response determines your future.\u201d Watch your offenses!\n***SAVE THE DATE!

        "raw_content": "Billionaires Are Piling Into These 7 Tech Stocks\nPublished on February 20, 2015 at 9:59 pm by Tim Frederick in Hedge Funds,News,Tech\nDoes imitating the stock picks of billionaires make you rich? The short answer is no. You don\u2019t get rich by investing in a diversified portfolio of stocks. Let\u2019s take an extreme example. Steve Cohen managed to return about 30% per year for a very long time. If you started with $1 million and return 30% per year every year, you still wouldn\u2019t become a billionaire after 25 years. And that\u2019s assuming that you don\u2019t have to pay any taxes and you keep reinvesting everything you make. Greenlight Capital managed to return 18.9% since its inception in 1996. One million invested with Greenlight Capital at the beginning of 1996 would become only $32 million today assuming you don\u2019t have to pay any taxes. If your tax rate is a modest 25%, your $1 million invested in Greenlight Capital would only become $14.2 million today. That\u2019s assuming that you were lucky to invest with one of the most successful hedge funds in the World.\nThe truth is billionaire hedge fund managers start investing differently as their assets grow and they become billionaires. When they are managing a $100 million portfolio, they can easily invest in small, promising ideas. When they start investing a multi billion dollar portfolio they put most of their money on large-cap stocks because they have too much money to invest it all into small-caps. Unfortunately, almost all hedge fund managers, including billionaire hedge fund managers, can\u2019t beat the market by a large enough margin by investing in large-cap stocks. That\u2019s one of the reasons why hedge fund investors have been under-performing the market in recent years.\nOur research has shown that the 30 most popular stocks among hedge funds outperformed the market by nearly 2 percentage points between 1999 and 2009. This isn\u2019t bad at all but it isn\u2019t enough to justify the high hedge fund fees. On the other hand, investors would have outperformed Vanguard\u2019s index funds by an average of 2 percentage points a year if they had imitated these picks in their personal portfolios. Our research also has shown that hedge funds\u2019 small-cap picks outperformed the market by double digit rates annually between 1999 and 2009 (read the details here). So, overall it is a good idea to pay attention to what hedge funds and billionaires are buying and selling, especially in the small-cap portion of your portfolio.\nWe recently published the list of the 10 most popular stocks among hedge funds. Most of those stocks are also very popular among billionaires. This list covers the equity positions of 59 billionaires. We excluded positions that are smaller than $10 million. We also limited our rankings to technology stocks. We ranked each stock by the number of billionaires with bullish positions. As you\u2019ll notice in the forthcoming list, it appears billionaires love mostly mega-cap tech stocks but there are a couple of surprises at the top of the list.\n7. Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO) was in the portfolios of 12 billionaires at the end of 2014. Billionaires James Dinan, Daniel Och, and David Einhorn initiated brand new positions in Yahoo probably thinking that it is a much better way of investing in Alibaba. Yahoo has been targeted by one activist after another in the past three years. Actually David Einhorn was the first star hedge fund manager who thought Yahoo\u2019s sum of the parts valuation was much higher than its market price. That was more than 3 years ago. Einhorn actually lost a little bit of money before Dan Loeb started buying Yahoo at $12 per share. Loeb ousted Yahoo\u2019s management and pushed the board to hire Marissa Mayer as CEO. Third Point made about a billion dollars until he stepped down in the middle of 2013. More recently Jeff Smith\u2019s Starboard Value has been targeting Yahoo. The thesis is still the same.\nBillionaire Bill Ackman\u2019s Top Picks: Allergan Inc. (AGN), Air Products... Billionaire Steve Cohen\u2019s Top Picks: Tyson Foods Inc.

        "raw_content": "How to Build Retirement Income with Annuities\nAsh Toumayants April 26, 2017\nAs Baby Boomers continue retiring in large numbers each year, many have long worried about how financially prepared members of that generation are to provide for their golden years. Given the challenges of figuring out how to invest to make a nest egg last for a retirement that could span 30 or more years, Baby Boomers need answers and advice on the most efficient ways to draw their assets. There is so much marketing geared towards specific products and strategies to solve their retirement income needs that makes choosing the right path difficult to say the least.\nGenerally speaking, I\u2019m leery of investments with the word \"income\" in them. Income funds tend to be too risky for someone who wants to generate an income stream for themselves. Fund managers often chase high-yield bonds and high dividend-paying stocks in order to get the highest return.\nHigh-yield bonds haven\u2019t done very well lately and high dividend-paying stocks tend to come from a narrow sector or sectors which increases market risk. The other issue at hand is common assumption of the \u201cfour percent rule.\u201d Studies show that the rule may lead to failure or leave too much money unused. Retirement planning is too complex to be summarized by a simple rule of thumb.\nWith all of these options vying for a spot in your financial plan, consider another way to establish steady retirement income while countering longevity risk. Part of the solution may lie in annuities. (For related reading, see: How Annuities Can Boost Your Retirement Confidence)\nWhat Annuities Can Do\nI\u2019m an advocate of using annuities to create a self-funded pension. An annuity is an insurance product that pays out income and allows you to receive a steady income stream in retirement. The biggest advantage of annuities is that you can put away larger amounts of after-tax money and defer paying taxes on the interest. They are generally structured as either fixed or variable. I typically discourage the use of variable annuities as the fees are far too high on most (around 3.5% per year). Additionally, the contracts are very confusing \u2014 the choice of funds are too limited, many don\u2019t allow for spousal continuation, and some companies have actually been able to change the contract after it has already been issued.\nOne type of these financial vehicles that makes a lot of sense is an immediate annuity. Immediate annuities have several advantages because you have don\u2019t have to worry about market fluctuations for the necessary portion of your income. These annuities offer income for life or for a set period of time (such as 10 or 15 years) or a combination, as in payments are set for life but are guaranteed to be paid out to your beneficiaries for a set number of years in case you pass away before the guarantee period. Immediate annuities start paying out right away, so these are helpful to people who are already in, or close to, retirement. With a fixed immediate annuity, you can secure an income stream for the rest of your life, or as long as you choose.\nSome of the rules annuities operate under can be complex, so take the time to research how to utilize annuities effectively before jumping in. Comparison shopping is a must if you want owning an annuity to work out in your favor. Always look at several different annuities and their terms to compare payments and how much money you\u2019ll need to set aside to pay for them. Make sure you consider all of your investment options and how much risk you\u2019re willing to take in regards to the amount of return you want to see. Once you make your premium payment and start receiving income payments, the decision is difficult to retract and comes with some fees and risks. (For related reading, see: Why Retirement Optimism Is Slipping for Many Americans.)\nAnnuity Challenges\nWhether you\u2019re choosing to invest in an annuity either before or during retirement, market changes have the ability to bring challenges to your plans. Always consider the strength, reputation and claims-paying ability of the company issuing the annuity. The income you will receive is only guaranteed as long as the underlying investments of the annuity hold up, and this can depend on the market conditions, but also on the long-term stability of a company.\nAnother element you can add to your annuity is an income rider. Someone who is within 10 years of retiring is probably hoping that the stock market will cooperate until it is time for them to retire. In a situation like this, it may be a good idea to have a portion of the retirement funds in a deferred annuity with an income rider. The basic idea is that the income rider, which comes with a cost of about one percent on average, would grow at a guaranteed rate, subject to the claims-paying ability of the insurance company, anywhere from five percent to seven percent compound interest. The benefit is that you won\u2019t need to take on additional risk to generate a solid return from the market. The rest of the funds can be focused on aggressive growth; you won\u2019t need to access much of it for income, and it will fight the inflation battle.\nAs with most financial planning strategies, there are some limitations and caveats to consider. While there are some annuity contracts that increase payments with inflation, the numbers aren\u2019t that attractive earlier on. Most people take a decent hit initially for the privilege of an inflation fighting income stream throughout their retirement. It\u2019s best to rely on market growth over the long-term for inflation protection.\nEach individual has different needs and goals when it comes to investing and retirement. Annuities are not one-size-fits-all, so it\u2019s important to do sufficient research or speak with a financial or retirement planner about your specific situation and goals before determining that annuities are the most viable option for you. With proper guidance and planning, an annuity can be an extremely useful tool when it comes to retirement planning \u2014 creating confidence and a relaxed and worry-free retirement with guaranteed lifetime income.

The T-Mobile CEO says, however, that the merger ensures consumers will get even more for their money. Legere writes:\nCritics of our merger, largely employed by Big Telco and Big Cable, have principally argued that we are going to raise rates right after the merger closes. I want to reiterate, unequivocally, that New T-Mobile rates are NOT going to go up. Rather, our merger will ensure that American consumers will pay less and get more.\nSpecifically, Legere says that following the merger, T-Mobile will offer plans to consumers that are \u201cthe same or better\u201d than what is currently offered by it or Sprint. He promises that this will be the case for three years from when the merger is approved:\nTo remove any remaining doubt or concerns about New T-Mobile\u2019s prices while we are combining our networks over the next three years, T-Mobile today is submitting to the Commission a commitment that I stand behind \u2013 a commitment that New T-Mobile will make available the same or better rate plans for our services as those offered today by T-Mobile or Sprint.\nThe $26 billion deal between T-Mobile and Sprint has already received approval from a national security panel through the Treasury Department. Currently, the deal is under review by the Justice Department and FCC.\nPrevious articleApple again became the world\u2019s most valuable company today, but only for a few seconds\nNext articleXbox Live Coming To Android, iOS, And Nintendo Switch\nPowerful iPhone spy tool allowed UAE to view photos, emails, texts, locations and passwords",

The Z10\u2019s release will also put to rest the previously mandatory subscription to BlackBerry SOC - a requirement for using email and BB messenger - allowing service providers to \u201csimply place the customer on a normal smartphone plan\u201d.\nFor those of you interested in a free handset, you\u2019re looking at a 24-month contract that costs \u00a347 per month unlimited text and talk alongside 3GB of data. While prospective buyers who place more emphasis on cheaper rates than cheaper hardware, can look forward to \u00a325 per month plan which affords them 100mins talk time, 100MB of data and unlimited texts, as long as you fork over \u00a3229 for the handset beforehand.\nThe launch model of the Z10 will supposedly sport a black colour scheme, with a white variant expected to be available in February.",

        "title": "How The Graduate influenced me to embrace the unknown - The Johns Hopkins News-Letter",
        "raw_content": "Dustin Hoffman starred as Ben Braddock in the 1967 film The Graduate.\nWhen thinking about this, I\u2019m always reminded of the movie The Graduate, which I saw at the beginning of the semester. It\u2019s about a young man\u2019s life shortly after finishing his university education and the subsequent tumultuous months in which he searches for some type of path or direction (by participating in confused, destructive things like engaging in an affair with the iconic Mrs. Robinson).\nAs with most movies that have had a significant impact on me, at first, I couldn\u2019t figure out why I was so affected. There\u2019s no denying that it\u2019s a great film \u2014 it\u2019s considered by many to be one of the best of its time, and its revolutionary soundtrack, editing and casting still holds its own in popular culture.\nBut there was something deeper that hit me, an indescribable pull in my stomach beyond technical and aesthetic appreciation. I thought about it for days afterward, caught between some sense of nostalgia and some sense of dread about the coming year.\nBut that wasn\u2019t logical, I told myself. I couldn\u2019t relate to his flat, meaningless stumbling through life, nor his wealthy background or experiences as a straight man. I wasn\u2019t like this meandering, indecisive protagonist. I had a plan. I was going to take a gap year and go to law school. So why, I wondered as the credits rolled (as well as periodically for some time after) was I crying?\nI came to realize a bit later that it was my inability to relate to the character\u2019s existential state that connected me to his emotional state. Although I had a plan for my future and couldn\u2019t know what it was like to be so hopelessly directionless, it was that same plan that connected me to him.\nWhile our situations were significantly different, our emotional states were the same. My \u201cplan,\u201d I was discovering, was backing me into an unexpected corner, just as his lack of a plan was doing to him. We were both being suffocated, made claustrophobic by the crushing possibilities of post-graduate life.\nI wasn\u2019t ready for law school. I wasn\u2019t even ready for a gap year \u2014 the idea of moving back home to New Jersey to study for the LSAT in my childhood bedroom and work at some local restaurant was an unattractive one to say the least. I wasn\u2019t ready to give up my independence and life here in Baltimore.\nEven more so, though, I wasn\u2019t ready to give up my writing, which I would presumably have to do while pursuing a law degree. And yet, that was exactly the situation my once comforting plan was forcing me into.\nEven still, that wasn\u2019t what had really impacted me about the film. What had truly hit me was the plight of the protagonist\u2019s ex-girlfriend, who went away to college just to find him following her and begging for her hand in marriage. At first, she rejects him openly. But slowly, over time, she becomes less sure. One scene in particular, I think, is where my deepest connection to the movie is rooted.\nIn the middle of the night, she enters the protagonist\u2019s dark room, waking him. She asks him to kiss her, and after he does, she pulls away for a moment. He asks her again if she will marry him. She shakes her head and says, confused, \u201cI don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t know what\u2019s happening.\u201d\nI was overwhelmed by that moment and felt exactly what she was feeling in a strange, distorted way. I knew what I had planned to do, but was that what I wanted now?\nThrough quite a few other experiences, I started to see that my original plan wasn\u2019t what I wanted anymore. It wasn\u2019t time for me to take a gap year, nor was it time for me to give up my writing. Although I had felt trapped since the beginning of the school year, just this revelation alone lifted some heaviness off of my chest.\nSure, not knowing what to do with your future can be scary. But I was coming to the conclusion that being too sure of what you\u2019re going to do when it isn\u2019t what you should do is similarly disturbing.\nSo things have changed. My \u201cplan\u201d has altered, and I\u2019m currently working on applications for a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in poetry. And I have no idea what that will truly mean for my post-grad life.\nI still think I\u2019ll go to law school and make a career out of that some time in the future, but that\u2019s not something for me to worry about now. Now, I\u2019m trying to embrace the unknown a bit more. Even if it\u2019s terrifying, there\u2019s something freeing in it.",

        "raw_content": "Chick-fil-A is opening its first international restaurant in Toronto, Canada.\n5 secrets that Chick-fil-A employees know that you should too\nMaggie Burch, Southern Living\nChick-fil-A is known for many things\u2014not least among them its delicious food. There\u2019s Cow Appreciation Day when patrons who come dressed up as cows get a free entree (it\u2019s July 10th, if you missed it this year), the fact that each location is closed every Sunday, and the notoriously generous and sweet attitude of all the franchise employees. And those kind employees understandably know some facts about their employer that aren\u2019t really common knowledge. But we think they should be. So below, we rounded up five useful facts Chick-fil-A employees have shared that you ought to know.\nYou Can Actually Have Chick-fil-A on Sundays\nOkay, so you can\u2019t buy Chick-fil-A on Sundays, but the restaurant still has you covered. According to the company\u2019s blog, you can order \u201creheatable trays...that come with pre-chilled nuggets or Chick-n-Strips that you can bake in the convenience of your own home.\u201d A little thinking ahead means no more disappointing Sundays when all you really want is some Chick-fil-A.\nYou Won\u2019t Hear an Employee Say \u201cYou\u2019re Welcome\u201d\nIf you\u2019re a regular at Chick-fil-A, you\u2019ve probably picked up on this one, but when you say \u201cthank you\u201d to any of the employees, you won\u2019t get \u201cyou\u2019re welcome,\u201d \u201cno problem,\u201d or \u201csure thing\u201d in response\u2014they\u2019ll say \u201cmy pleasure.\u201d Founder Truett Cathy apparently noticed employees at a Ritz Carlton saying the phrase to guests and was struck by how just a small difference in language could make an impact on the customers\u2019 experience. According to a 2017 Reddit post by an employee, saying \u201cmy pleasure\u201d isn\u2019t actually mentioned in official training at all, but it\u2019s encouraged and saying it becomes a \u201clearned behavior.\u201d\n\u00bb Chick-fil-A discontinuing Cow Calendar after this year\nYou Don\u2019t Need to Ration Your Chick-fil-A Sauce\nAre you addicted to Chick-fil-A sauce? Or maybe you prefer the Polynesian? No matter your sauce of choice, you don\u2019t have to actually limit your sauce usage to only Chick-fil-A food. A catering size tub of any sauce can be purchased for about $2, so the next time you\u2019re trying not to open that second sauce container and save it for later, you don\u2019t have to worry about running out.\nThe Name Has a Double Meaning\nIf you grew up eating at Chick-fil-A, you might not have given much thought to the name of the restaurant, but it is a bit unique. And there are two (slightly) hidden meanings in the name. First, the name is a play on \u201cchicken fillet,\u201d as in the food item they became famous for serving. But the \u201cA\u201d at the end of the name is there for another reason. According to the company\u2019s website, \u201cit\u2019s also a promise. The \u2018A\u2019 stands for Grade A and top quality. It\u2019s what we deliver upon every time you eat with us.\u201d\nYou Can Order Off-Menu Without Feeling Guilty\nYou need not feel guilty for asking for some customizations to your Chick-fil-A order. According to the employee who posted on Reddit, you can mix any milkshake flavors and you can add oreo bits to any milkshake you create. Another option: Make your morning chicken biscuit have a little kick to it by asking for the spicy chicken. Customizing your order is even easier when you order through the Chick-fil-A app, which will give you an idea of what requests are really within reason\u2014and which ones are not.",

        "raw_content": "Juventus C Luo, every move in training can attract the worlds thousands of eyes.\nIn the 33 spring and Autumn period, C Luo grew up from the born boy of Portugal and became an epoch-making figure in the history of world football. The reason for this is not the four words of genius. For decades, C Luos success is more dependent on perseverance and struggle. It is precisely because of the number of times more than the number of times to pay, C Luo step by step on the throne of football.\nIn September of this year, C Luo won sixth gold ball awards without accident. At that time, he will really become the first person in football history and leave Messi behind. Recalling the road that has been going through these years, C Luo must be filled with emotion. Over the years, countless people have gone through his life journey, playing a role of light or heavy, affecting his career. One of them, a boy named Ferreira Ferreira (Ferreira), had accompanied C roo through the years of shallot, and they were drifting together and being bullied together.\nAt that time, Ferre rabbi C Luo also excellent, coach regarded him as a superstar in the future. However, when the times passed, C was in great love and Ferreira disappeared in the long history of history. He could not even bear to mention the regrettable and true years. Recently, Marcus Alves (MARCUSALVES), an expert on the open stand bleacherreport, published an article about the youth of Ferreira and C.\nThe name of Cristiano Ronaldo is now well known all over the world, and few people do not know the Portuguese heavenly king. However, before he became famous, everyone used to call him Ronnie (Roni). When he first came to Lisbon, Ronaldo was just a skinny kid. Everybody looked down on him and laughed at him. His teammates made him open Ferrari.\nKai Ferrari is not really driving, but a corporal punishment, everyone will be training ground that huge trash can called Ferrari. Ronaldo left his hometown for the dream of joining Athletic Lisbon, one of the biggest clubs in Portugal, after leaving his native Madeira Islands. However, C is unable to keep up with the rhythm of the course. So, time and again, he was arranged to open Ferrari and push the stinky, heavy trash cans out of the old Jose Alvarad stadium.\nWhen C Luo is working hard, other children will be on the side. Vroom, Vroom. They laugh as they imitate the voice of trash cans. Look, Ronnie is driving a Ferrari. Come on, speed up, speed up. C Luo grew up in such a cynicism.\nMemories are sometimes very destructive and ironic. Today, 33 year old C Luo can buy whatever car he wants, and how much he wants to buy, as long as he wants. After joining Juventus with a transfer fee of 105 million euros, C Luo will even become the global ambassador for Ferrari, and Ferrari is controlled by the Agnelli family of the Juventus boss. Those mockery did not make C Luo fall. Instead, it made C Luo swear at such a young age.\nHe believes that he is different from these teammates. He said to them,You can make fun of me, but someday, Ill drive a Ferrari and youll just have to envy it. Lu Nell is a coach of Lisbon athletics at that time, he recalls.\nIn the locker room, C Luo had no friends, and no one was willing to contact him. This is not a good thing, because the Ferrari is too big and heavy, and C Luo is very hard to push.\nLuckily, Fabio Ferreira is an exception.\nLike C Luo, Ferreira is also a very talented young man. In some ways, his future is even brighter than that of C. He is a technical all-round striker, physically strong and has a general ability to end. His strength is great, and he can always be flexible when he is one to one. Really, he is always impressive. Joao Coto, who was the coach of the Lisbon athletic youth team, said: he is almost the most promising player in our team. When he was only 15 years old, he was outstanding. You can describe our players in this field: Ferreira plus 10 others.\nThere is a big gap between C Luo and Ferreira at this stage. However, there are many similarities between them, which makes them say nothing.\nFerreira is also away from home. His parents live in Monte GODO, which is far away from Lisbon. Moreover, Ferreira also has a strong accent, like C Luo, so they are often mocked by other teammates. Except for C Luo and Ferreira, all the other members of the Lisbon youth team are local. They go home every weekend. At this point, C Luo and Ferreira will stay in the team. They live in the same dormitory.\nIn this way, they became very good little partners, two people almost inseparable. In the dormitory, they talked with each other; in the training field, they shared the responsibility of opening Ferrari. You help me, I help you, grow together.\nThe two little ones are full of expectations for the future, and their efforts have been rewarded. In 2001, they played on behalf of Portugal U15 national youth team. In the friendly match with South Africa, C Luo scored a goal, and Ferreira was delighted to celebrate his friend.\nMany people believe that this pair of Gemini will become the pillar of the Portuguese national team and the pride of the whole nation in the future. However, Ferreira did not develop as expected. This summer Russia world cup, C Luos front line partner is not Ferreira. Now, Ferreira is living in plain and insipid days in al. He will never notice him. On weekdays, he was mainly busy with the seafood business. People have forgotten that he was better than C Luo.\nWhen Ferreira was mixed up in the market, his friend has become the greatest soccer player in the world.\nFate makes their lives go in two directions.\nWhen he was with the Lisbon Youth Team, Ronaldo liked to eat in a restaurant called Tobisbar, which was only 15 minuteswalk from training camp. This restaurant is very popular in Beijiao, Lisbon. Now, the traffic in Beijiao, Lisbon is very developed. It is more convenient to get there. But in the 90s of last century, it was very chaotic, and the law and order was very poor.\nOn one occasion, C Luo was caught by 5 boys on the way to dinner. They threatened C Luo with a knife. They say C has hit one of them. In this case, C vowed that he did not do it. However, Cs swear was useless, and his eyes were punched.\nC Luo said the truth. He has never beaten anyone in that organization. In fact, he was a good friend of Ferreira, C lo. C Luo and Ferreira look alike. They dont look seriously. You think they are brothers. Therefore, outsiders often fail to distinguish who they are. C Luo and Ferreira both have short curly hair, and they often go out together.\nAt the end of the week, they dont go home. They stayed in the dorm, and the relationship between the two men was very close. They are both optimistic and the best playmates, says Lu Nell. They dont care about the poor conditions in the dorm. Instead of spending time on complaints, they are more willing to do something meaningful.\nCarlos Saleiro is also a member of the youth team. He is retired now. In the interview, Carlos Salero also lamented Ferreira and Colos talent, he personally worse than them. In order to catch up with the two outstanding teammates, Carlos - - La La Luo had to strengthen the training. Ferreira is a crazy guy. Outside the court, he spent too much energy. Of course, he was not malicious. He lacks maturity and has gone through many twists and turns, unable to be as red as C Luo. Carlos - salad was smiling.\nLike coach Joao Cotos evaluation, Carlos Saleiro also affirmed Ferreiras talent. Obviously, Ferreira is a lot better than C. However, Ferreira lacked the desire to be the best player, which was the main reason why he was dumped by Ronaldo.\nLewis, Martins, a technical coordinator of Lisbon athletics, had brought Ferreira and C Luo. He revealed that Ferreira was more attractive than Ronaldo in the first few months, and everyone was more interested in Ferreira. He is a player for the restricted area. He doesnt need any space at all. He has great strength. Martins said: he is a player like Fernando Torres, probably similar to Papin. At that time, C Luo could only move behind Ferreira. Whether Ferreira goes to the left or the right, C Luo will pass the ball to him. Under normal circumstances, Ferreira will not waste opportunities.\nHowever, Martins pointed out in particular that Ferres attitude outside the field is a huge hidden danger.\nHe is the kind of child who disregards discipline. Martins stressed: Sometimes, his behavior completely crossed the line, and he inevitably fell into some disputes. It seems that he thinks he can override discipline.\nIf those mistakes were not made, would Ferreira become Cs right arm in the national team? This is a question that never knows the answer. For the rest of his life, Ferreira is also often troubled by this problem. We do not know much about Ferreiras subsequent events. We only know that Ferreira scored 3 goals in 10 matches on behalf of Portuguese U15 and U17.\nFerreira has not been selected as a member of Portugals adult national team, but he has played with C lo in the youth national team. One of the matches took place on March 8, 2002, in the U17 European Championship qualifier, Portugal U17 against Andorra U17, Portugal away. In the end, Portugal washed their opponents 4-0, C Rome opened two degrees, and Ferreira scored a goal. This is their first and last goal in the national team. Since then, Ferreira has never been selected any national team.\n6 months later, C Luo began to celebrate his first Portuguese goal, when his opponent was M. In the summer of second years, C Luo joined Manchester United and the transfer fee was 12 million 240 thousand.\nAt the same time, Ferreira can no longer enter the Lisbon athletic team.\nBelow the neck, C Luo is no different from Ferreira. The problem is mainly over the neck. Rono Nell said: when C Luo came here from Madeira, he was already an athlete. We often find him doing sit ups and push ups in his dormitory. He never relaxes his requirements. Sometimes he practices weightlifting in the gym at 1 in the morning. He never stopped moving. He wanted to turn himself into a better terminator.\nYes, Ferreira was more eye-catching than Ronaldo for a while. He was stronger, muscular and taller. But he did not have the attitude of C roo. This is the most important.\nGo against the water and go in a boat. Saleiro also pointed out that Ferreiras advantage was soon wasted by him. When we were both 13 and 14, he was the tallest of us, and he was fast, and his legs were stronger than ours. He grew faster than we did and made a mark in the competition. But with the development of other players, those who are really gifted will shine for ever. The body is a natural gift, but it is by no means all.\nTo make matters worse, Ferreira is constantly off court. His image in the team is very bad. In any way, his failure was self imposed.\nHe should maintain a different attitude, treat his career seriously and lead a normal social life. Joao - Koto said: his attention is not at all training. Joao - Koto and Ferreira should be regarded as fellow townsman because Joao - Koto has a house in Mont Godot. Now, Ferreira lives in the city, too.\nTransfer to Juventus, C Luo is still in dream\nC has ambitious ambitions, and Ferreira is content with the status quo. He thinks he is very talented and needs no further improvement. To be fair, Ferreira is not bad. He is a good man, but he is led by bad friends. In the evening, he went out for a mess. In the end, he lost himself. I trusted him again and again, and three gave him many opportunities. However, he was disappointing to me once and again. In training, he was totally absent-minded.\nI believe he will finally understand how he wasted his talent.\nIn 2002, C Ronaldo was the first to show his career. Since then, his performance is getting better and better. No one can stop him from moving forward. In contrast, Ferreira has been totally depressed and shocked by the rise of C Luo. At that moment, he knew that he would never catch up with this friend again. He was no longer the darling of Lisbon athletics. On the contrary, his roommate became the best Portuguese player after UBIO. Slowly, C Luo became the football idol of the world and wrote his own legend.\nIn addition to lack of self-discipline, there is another important reason for the decline of Ferreiras later period: a continuous knee injury. Once, a knee injury stopped him for 6 months. I dont know if he followed the doctors instructions during his recovery, and Im not sure if he can regulate his behavior, Martins said. After that injury, he can no longer be as he used to be. Its a pity that his talent is so high.\nA game, a dream, Ferreira can no longer make his career back on track. The 2003-04 season was Ferreiras last season in Lisbon, and then he turned to the semi professional league, where the average salary was only 580 Europe a month, the countrys lowest standard.\nAt this time, Ferreira just woke up like a dream. He knew what a good time he had wasted. Joao - Koto said: when fate decides, he has not made the right choice. So he could never shine like he did before.\nIf you look back on that period of time, one of the two children has reached the highest level, and the other could have been equally eye-catching. Unfortunately, he couldnt do it.\nTalking about football, Ferreiras heart cant be calm. Now, he locked himself up, hoping to be isolated from the world. He would not recall the time when he fought alongside Cristiano, Nani, Mourinho, Silvestre Barrera and Miguel Veroso. We can understand his feelings.\nThe bleachers want to sit down with Ferreira and listen to his football story. To this end, they paid more than a months efforts, but with little success. Ferreiras mother told reporters that his son was sick and didnt want to be interviewed. The interviews were time-based. Others confirmed that Ferreira really didnt want to talk about that anymore.\nFinally, the reporter of the bleachers decided to find Ferreira in person. Mont Godot has a 4 hour train ride from Lisbon, but as long as you get there, its not difficult for you to find Ferreira. Everyone knows that he is in the local holiday village, where there are many elderly tourists. Tourists go there to enjoy the endless sunshine, and also to taste the seafood of al. (Note: as mentioned above, Ferreira is now in the seafood business).\nOn the way, reporters found a football shop, outside the store there are two huge C Luo advertising photos. In the photo, C Luo only wore a pair of underpants, showing sexy muscles, which was very conspicuous at the beach.\nThe past is not to be chased. Many locals do not know that Ferreira fought alongside Colo, the five-time Golden Globe winner, or that their friendship was so strong. Locals know Ferreira mainly because of Amenio Gonsalves, the owner of one of the most famous restaurants in the area.\nWhen Ferreira played football, he often supported him. Joao - Koto said.\nAfter retiring, Ferreira served as a waiter at the restaurant of aminho. His brother, Angelo, also went to the class there. This time, the reporters found Angelo first. Angelo revealed that Ferreira had to go to the coffee shop in the middle of the village for 2 times a day. There, Ferreira would have a cup of coffee and have a chat with his friends. So the reporters went to this coffee shop and waited for Ferreira. Sure, Ferreira appeared in 3 hours later.\nAfter knowing the purpose of reporters, Ferreira said, I dont want to talk about my career anymore. I have interviewed many times, and I always say the same thing. Now, there are more people around C Luo, you can interview them.\nThere are many people around C Luo, a team, including his brother Hugo Avero, former Nike backbone Ricardo regu, 2 former Lisbon colleagues Pai Theo and Jose Semedo. Time will change many things. Ferreira knows that he and C Luo are no longer in the same world.\nFerreira and C have been in touch for more than 10 years, and two people have been together several times during this period. On one occasion, Ferreira also took photos with C Luos trophy and sent the photos to the social network. However, he and C are doomed to be two parallel lines. Later, because of some reasons he could not understand, his greetings to C Luo were never answered.\nThe wind is always blown away by the rain. The two children shared the same dream. Reality makes them no longer connected with passers-by, and there will be no more shadows in their lives. After drinking coffee, Ferreira left the coffee shop. He drove a cherry red ordinary car. Unlike C Luo, his garage does not have a great number of luxury cars. Every day, he runs for his livelihood and drives the car to the nearby cities to pick up the goods. In the afternoon, he can stay anywhere, no one will ask to take a photo with him. What kind of feelings do you have at the end of the article? Someone regretted for Ferreira and sighed what he should have done. Others feel that Ferreiras status quo is not bad, this unrestrained life in Taoyuan is the aspiration of many football players. For Ferreira, this is the fate of his choice. Only by having it better can we make up for those mistakes in the past. And C Luo, is still in the path of the dream.

The two exchanges originally signed an accord for the exchange of technology, skills and information in 1998.\n\"The agreement with the NSX is of strategic importance to the JSE and provides an indication of the services we are able to offer our other counterparts on the African continent with massive economies of scale benefits,\" says Director of Trading and Market Services, Leanne Parsons. \"The close relationship between the two exchanges extends beyond technology and includes knowledge sharing where appropriate. It makes sense to us to continue to grow the relationship.\"\nThe NSX, which was re-launched in 1992, had a total of 34 listed companies, four members (stockbrokers) and six sponsoring brokers by early 2014.\nWe believe the introduction of the JSE's systems had a positive impact on the NSX's trading volumes,\" says NSX CEO Tiaan Bazuin. \"We see the JSE as a strategic partner offering a platform which is good for the Namibian exchange and its clients.\"\nThis month's agreement between the two exchanges includes a range of services:\n\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200bUse of the Millennium Equity trading system;\nReal-time market data distribution;\nSurveillance services;\nMaintenance of the market data gateways;\nUse of the Securities Exchange News Service;\nEquities Clearing and Settlement services;\nReporting facilities which assist NSX members to perform back-office administration functions; and\nA portfolio facility which enables NSX Members to calculate their client investment portfolios.\n\u200bENDS\nEmail: craig.atherfold@hkstrategies.co.za\nHead of Group Communications and Issuer Services\u200b",

        "title": "The Third Energy Package \u2013 What the Macedonian Electricity Market Needs? | Views | Karanovi\u0107 & Nikoli\u0107",
        "raw_content": "Views/ The Third Energy Package \u2013 What the Macedonian Electricity Market Needs?\nTwo and a half years after the expiry of the deadline for the implementation of the Third Energy Package, the Macedonian authorities seem eager to finalise this process in the near future. The new draft legislation has been in the pipeline for quite some time, but until now its adoption was postponed due to different reasons. From recent meetings between the delegation of the Energy Community and the representatives of the new Government of the Republic of Macedonia, it appears that the officials set up an agenda for overcoming the status quo.\nDuring the process for transposing the Third Energy Package into national legislation, the main focus will have to be put on the requirements for unbundling, market opening, regional market integration and strengthening the position of the Energy Regulatory Commission (\"ERC\"). The most challenging issue which needs to be tackled is certainly the postponement of the electricity market liberalisation.\nThe Macedonian electricity market consists of the following three key players:\nthe state-owned Electricity Transmission System Operator of Macedonia (MEPSO) (Macedonian: \u041c\u0430\u043a\u0435\u0434\u043e\u043d\u0441\u043a\u0438 \u0435\u043b\u0435\u043a\u0442\u0440\u043e\u043f\u0440\u0435\u043d\u043e\u0441\u0435\u043d \u0441\u0438\u0441\u0442\u0435\u043c \u043e\u043f\u0435\u0440\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0440), acting as a transmission system operator and as a market operator;\nthe state-owned Macedonian Power Plants (ELEM) (Macedonian: \u0415\u043b\u0435\u043a\u0442\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0438 \u043d\u0430 \u041c\u0430\u043a\u0435\u0434\u043e\u043d\u0438\u0458\u0430), the biggest domestic electricity producer and an operator with a limited distribution network; and,\nEVN Makedonija\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b, a private company which owns and operates most of the distribution network (i.e. 99.38%).\nIn line with the provisions from the Second Energy Package, MEPSO has been legally unbundled for quite some time, whereas ELEM and EVN Makedonija are not compliant with the applicable unbundling requirements. In particular, both companies hold supply licences and do not keep separate financial accounts for each of their regulated activities. According to the latest Annual Implementation Report prepared by the Energy Community Secretariat, EVN Makedonija undertook several steps to rectify this situation, however a functional unbundling was not reached.\nThe revised electricity legislation intended to transpose the Third Energy Package will have to introduce rules for ownership unbundling and the certification of the transmission system operator. According to recent news, the draft certification rules have been finalised, but their adoption will come after the amendments to the primary energy legislation. The authorities will also need to ensure the implementation of the legal and functional unbundling of the distribution system operators, EVN and ELEM.\nMarket opening and Eligibility\nIn 2014, a few months before the scheduled full liberalisation of the electricity market, the Government decided to postpone it until the 1st of July, 2020. The liberalisation process should now happen in several stages i.e. each year a certain group of consumers will become eligible to choose its electricity supplier. For instance, non-households (having less than 50 employees and annual turnover below EUR 10 million) with electricity consumption over 100 MWh will enter the open market on the 1st of July, 2018, while those with electricity consumption over 25 MWh on the 1st of July, 2019. The households and the rest of the non-households will be eligible from the 1st of July, 2020.\nThe liberalisation was postponed in order to prevent shock prices, especially in the case of households. Now, on the one hand, according to an announcement, this breach of the Treaty establishing the Energy Community will be rectified. But on the other hand, the Government plans to introduce a daily tariff for cheap electricity, which needs to be carefully structured in order to avoid any further non-compliance with the Energy Community acquis. The Third Energy Package allows for such temporary measures, but they must focus on the socially vulnerable population and not be burdensome for the other electricity consumers.\nAnother obstacle to the establishment of a well-functioning electricity market are the public service obligations imposed on EVN and ELEM. On one side, EVN carries out a supply of last resort, while ELEM generates electricity to meet the demands of the suppliers of last resort, and sells the electricity at regulated prices. As noted by the Energy Community, these public service obligations represent a breach of the Third Energy Package - since they are excessive and without time limitation.\nRegulatory Independence and Powers\nAll requirements from the Third Energy Package, with respect to the national regulatory authorities, aim to ensure an independent and autonomous decision-making process. To reach this goal, the regulatory authority should be independent from any public or private party, it should have a separate annual budget and sufficient human and financial resources for exercising its powers.\nThe national legislation satisfies the Third Energy Package independence requirements, with respect to the ERC, except for the lack of a rotation scheme for ERC board members. Hence, the announced amendments need to focus on this issue and on transposing all of the regulatory powers from the Third Energy Package.",

        "raw_content": "Eva Sonaike\u2019s journey to becoming a textile designer began when she realised she could no longer stand the bland character of the small flat she and her husband used to share. \u201cI was on maternity leave and I felt the need to make it warm, welcoming and more \u2018us\u2019,\u201d she says. Eva headed to London\u2019s Petticoat Lane market and bought bolts of bright African wax fabrics to make into cushion covers, throws and curtains.\n\u201cAs a quick fix, it worked,\u201d she says. \u201cOf course, I now know that those materials aren\u2019t right for upholstery \u2013 too flimsy, not colourfast and so on. But it made me see very clearly how vibrant fabrics can bring joy into a space.\u201d\nTen years later, Eva has moved on \u2013 both career-wise and to a new home. She\u2019s designing full time, working from a studio in the garden of her 1930s house in north London, where she lives with her husband Kola Sonaike, a barrister, their son Lolu, aged 10, and daughter Lola, eight.\n\u201cWhen we bought this house it was a typical semi and the downstairs rooms were fairly dark,\u201d says Eva. The couple knocked through the ground floor rooms and extended it to create one large split-level space. \u201cMy wish list was simple: white walls, dark floors and lots of light,\u201d says Eva. \u201cI knew I was going to add colour and pattern. And I think that works best with a light, clean backdrop.\u201d\nWoman with a wish list: Eva Sonaike at home. Photograph: Anna Stathaki for the Observer\nInspiration for her fabric designs comes from the regular trips she has made to west Africa since she was a child. While Eva was born in Germany and lived there until moving to London in her 20s to work as a fashion editor, her heritage is Nigerian. \u201cI grew up knowing that fabrics were held in high esteem in Yoruba culture,\u201d she says. \u201cThickly woven aso oke cloth was once a form of currency and is still given as a special gift. Or the embroidery on clothing could hold meaning \u2013 it might ward off evil, bring wealth or attract a spouse. Fabrics were never just pieces of cloth . They always told some kind of story.\u201d\nEva still travels to Africa each year with her own family, trips that now provide the stories for her own designs. \u201cWhen I\u2019m there, I\u2019m like a sponge,\u201d she says. \u201cI soak up visual stimuli, the scents and the atmosphere. I see patterns in everything, from architecture to nature.\u201d\nPrints and princess: African fabrics in the master bedroom. Photograph: Anna Stathaki for the Observer\nThe motifs she sketches are later scanned into Photoshop, where she refines them and adds colours. Eva points to her Ijoba cushion, featuring lush leaves arranged in a stylised 50s-feel pattern. \u201cThis one came about after a trip to Ghana for a wedding. Afterwards we took the children up into the mountains to visit an old botanical gardens,\u201d she says. \u201cEveryone said: \u2018Don\u2019t bother, it\u2019s so run-down\u2019 \u2013 but that just made me want to go even more. When we arrived, the place was shrouded in mist and it felt as if nature had been left to run wild. The gardens were teeming with life \u2013 plants unfurling and exploding into flower.\u201d\nAnother design, Ojo, was inspired by the tropical modernism-style walls and balconies of Lagos, reimagined by Eva into an elegant grid of golds and reds. \u201cThat post-colonial architecture is an everyday feature of Lagos life,\u201d she says. \u201cI wanted to bring out its beauty.\u201d Other prints feature zebra stripes recast in neon shades, a softened version of batik and shapes inspired by Yoruba embroidery.\nIn her home, Eva\u2019s patterns are complemented by African artefacts that have been in her family since the 1960s and 1970s. \u201cMy father was an art historian, so he had a very good eye,\u201d she says. Eva and Kola have added carved figures bought more recently in Lagos\u2019s craft markets. \u201cLook beyond rows of statues darkened with shoe polish and sanded to \u2018age\u2019 them and you\u2019ll always find beautifully crafted objects,\u201d she says.\nOther pieces in Eva\u2019s home include German antiques, a table from north Africa (by way of a Fulham dealer) and high street buys from Habitat and Ikea. Eva also confesses to a bit of a HomeSense habit for vases and lamp bases. \u201cMy daughter used to do a gym class near a branch, which was fatal. Luckily, she\u2019s just switched to a ballet class further away.\u201d\nKehls Upholstery May 10, 2018 May 10, 2018 News No Comments\nFully integrated circuits printed directly onto fabric \u2192",

        "raw_content": "GALLERIES > BIRDS > PICIFORMES > PICIDAE > ANTILLEAN PICULET [Nesoctites micromegas]\nThe Antillean Piculet (Nesoctites micromegas) is a species of bird in the woodpecker family Picidae. It is monotypic within the genus Nesoctites. The species is evolutionarily distinct from the other piculets and is afforded its own subfamily. It is endemic to the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. A fossil feather in amber attributed to the genus has been found in the Dominican Republic, showing that the ancestors of the species have been isolated on Hispaniola for at least 25 mya.\nThe Antillean Piculet occupies a number of different habitats within Hispaniola, including humid and dry Pinus and broadleaf forests, as well as semi-arid scrubland and thorn-forest. It will also occupy stands of mangrove forest and occasionally orchards and plantations. It occurs from sea-level to 1800 m, although in pine forests it is more common below 300 m. Within this habitat it prefers dense undergrowth.\nThe species is a small woodpecker, although it is twice as large as any of the other piculets, measuring around 14-16 cm and weighing around 30 g. The male has a yellow crown with a red spot in the centre. The plumage of the back, neck and wings is olive green, and the breast, throat and belly is off-white with streaks and spots. The female is similar to the male, except larger and lacking the red spot on the forecrown. The plumage of juvenile birds is similar to the adults but duller. Unlike the true woodpeckers (Picinae), they do not drum on trees to advertise their ownership of a territory, instead calling in a loud and rapid whistle. This call, rendered as \"kuk-kikikikekukuk\", is also used as a contact call between pairs.\nThe Antillean Piculet feeds on insects, with ants and beetles forming a large part of the diet. They also consume a lot of fruit compared to other piculets. Individuals and pairs forage rapidly through the understory of their habitat, mostly on small branches, twigs, vines and stalks, and less commonly on trunks. Food is mostly obtained by gleaning, with a few weak pecks (but no hammering as found in the true woodpeckers). The breeding season of the Antillean Piculet is March to July. A cavity is excavated in a stump, tree, palm or fence post in which 2 to four eggs are laid. The pair are highly territorial and will aggressively call and display towards intruders.",

        "raw_content": "Conference Policy on Sexual Ethics\na policy relating to sexual misconduct and sexual harassment for the Kentucky Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church\nI. Statement of Expectations and Standards of Conduct\nSexual misconduct, harassment, and abuse are not acceptable behaviors. The Kentucky Annual Conference of the Untied Methodist Church will intervene in allegations of sexual misconduct, harassment, and abuse according to the procedures set forth in The Book of Discipline, 2008 and the Kentucky Annual Conference Complaint Procedures Policy.\nThe annual conference is committed to providing a church environment where parishioners can expect opportunities for worship, access to God, and a clergy/parishioner relationship free of sexualized behavior.\nCases of suspected child abuse or neglect are not protected under clergy confidentiality and must be reported as required by civil law. ( \u00b6 341.5 Book of Discipline, 2008)\nII. Purpose of This Policy\nThis policy serves to guide and instruct persons in matters related to incidents of sexual harassment and sexual abuse. Persons who are related to the Kentucky Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church (hereto referred to as KAC) and its constituent churches and ministries fall under the guidance of this policy. Those persons include clergy (ordained and licensed), diaconal ministers, lay employees, and laity. Guidance is given in this policy for all persons variously affected by sexual harassment or sexual abuse. Incidents of this nature cast people into various roles. These roles include persons who are victims, persons who are called on to help bring resolution and healing. This policy addresses each of these roles of persons.\nThe following policy is intended to complement and supplement the provisions of The Book of Discipline, 2008 and KAC policies related to complaint procedures. Nothing in the policy may contradict the provisions of the Discipline in matters of clergy/lay conduct and grievance resolution (See Discipline, 2008 \u00b6 362 and 2701). In addition to complementing the disciplinary provisions, the policy is meant to provide practical guidance that is not addressed in The Book of Discipline to all parties involved in such cases.\nThe objective of this policy in combination withe the complaint procedures policy is to provide the kinds of practical guidance that is effective to reach a just resolution as well as the reconciliation and healing of all parties. Even in cases of formal complaint, reasonable efforts will be made to bring healing to the various parties.\nChurch officials of the Kentucky Annual Conference will be expected to use this policy. Failure to do so may jeopardize the due process of the persons involved. Two fundamental principles are assumed throughout this policy: (1) All allegations and claims of sexual harassment or sexual abuse warrant appropriate response and investigation; and (2) the presumption of innocence shall be maintained until such time as the respondent is determined to be guilty or admits guilt.\nIII. Theological Reflections\nA. One of the ongoing tasks of the Christian community is to understand our life theologically. Like other areas of human relationships, human sexuality has potential for expressing love and commitment to God and other persons, and has potential for abuse.\nGOVERNANCE - Standing Rules\nB. We affirm that:\nGod creates persons in the divine image, male and female.\nWomen and men are equal in the eyes of God.\nThe human body is a good and special part of the divine creation. It is the temple in which the Holy Spirit dwells and a place where the Word is made flesh.\nHuman sexuality is an integral part of our humanity. While profoundly personal, it has social dimensions as well. Its physical, emotional, and spiritual expressions in relation to others ought to be based on a loving commitment and accountability to God and the other person.\nGod calls persons to wholeness through Jesus Christ and to participate in the Body of Christ, the community of faith whose central quality is redemptive love.\nThe whole Church receives and accepts the call of God to embody and carry forth Christ's ministry in the world. There are persons within the church community whose gifts, graces, and promises of future usefulness are observable to the community, who respond to God's call and offer themselves in leadership (\u00b6 301) for specific ministries. In this role, persons are entrusted with responsibility to care for those they serve or supervise and not to misuse this role to the detriment of any.\nSexual misconduct, harassment, and abuse are violations of the integrity of the Body of Christ. Scripture specifically states that we are one connected body in Christ, created equally. When one part of the body is injured, physically, emotionally, or spiritually, the entire body is rendered less than God's intended potential wholeness. Violation of the pastoral relationship by sexual contact is a sin against God, the victim, and the redemptive community.\nWe believe in justice for all persons. Sexual misconduct, harassment, and/or abuse are dehumanizing by lack of respect and the unjust use of status and power and are sinful behaviors which violate the teachings of the Church.\nBecause of God's grace and forgiveness, healing can occur for the victim, the perpetrator, and the community of faith.\nIV. Definition of Terms\nSexual Misconduct is an abuse of power. It is defined as \"behavior of a sexualized nature that betrays sacred trust, violates the ministerial role, and exploits those who are vulnerable in that relationship. It is absent of meaningful consent.\"\nMeaningful consent assumes that both parties have equal power in the relationship. In a pastoral/counselor relationship, the power is always imbalanced on the side of the pastor/counselor. Therefore, the pastor/counselor is always responsible for keeping the relationship free from sex or sexual innuendo since the difference in roles makes meaningful consent impossible.\nSexual Abuse occurs when a person within a ministerial role of leadership (lay or clergy, pastor, educator, counselor, youth leader, or other position of leadership) \"engages in sexual contact or sexualized behavior with a congregant, client, employee, staff member, coworker, or volunteer.\" (2004 Book of Resolutions, p. 150-151)\nSexualized Behavior is that which \"communicates sexual interest and/or content. Examples include, but are not limited to displaying sexually suggestive visual materials; making sexual comments or innuendo about one's own or another person's body; touching another person's body, hair, or clothing; touching or rubbing oneself in the presence of another person; kissing; and sexual intercourse.\" (2004 Book of Resolutions, p. 151)\nSexual Harassment is defined as \"any behavior that intimidates, demeans, humiliates, or coerces. These behaviors range from the subtle forms that can accumulate into a hostile working, learning, or worshipping environment to the most severe forms of stalking, assault, or rape.\" (2004 Book of Resolutions, p. 151)\nGOVERNANCE - Policies\nThe Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) guidelines deal clearly with sexual harassment:\n\"Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute sexual harassment when:\nsubmission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting such an individual;\nsuch conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment.\"\nV. If You Are Experiencing Sexual Harassment:\nA. Inform the person.\nTell the person clearly at the time(s) of the harassment that you do not want the behavior. This action, in many cases, will resolve the issue.\nKeep copies of all written materials you complete in reference to the harassment. If you receive any written letters, cards, or memos of a suggestive nature from the person, keep them. Note the date received and how received (mailed to your home, left on your desk, etc.) Have someone initial and date the document.\nB. Report the behavior to your immediate supervisor, unless the person is your supervisor. Then go to the person's supervisor.\nC. If the alleged harassment is unresolved, and a formal complaint is filed:\nClergy: Grievance and complainant processes follow The Book of Discipline and the \"Complaint Procedures Policy\" of the Kentucky Annual Conference. Investigations, trials, and appeals processes follow The Book of Discipline.\nDiaconal Minister: The behavior will be reported to the Board of Ordained Ministry which will follow The Book of Discipline.\nLaity: Supervisor will take the complaint to the appropriate conference or local church personnel committee. Procedures to follow are in \u00b6 2701ff based on chargeable offenses in \u00b6 2702.\nVI. Complaint Procedures\nComplaints of sexual misconduct will be dealt with in accordance to the 2008 Book of Discipline, paragraphs 361, 362, 363. Anyone who has experienced clergy sexual misconduct is advised/encouraged to call the Advocates Access Line 1-887-852-5250, a confidential phone line.\nClergy and Boundaries with Dr. Richard M.

A lot of us here in Texas like guns.\"\nTrump said his Mexican family disowned him long before he had changed his name and turned his back on them.\n\"They thought I was an embarrassment to the family,\" he said.\nSomewhat of a local celebrity on YouTube, Trump believes that this move will help him gain more notoriety for his social media channels. He has a ........ particular sense of humor you can see on his personal Facebook page, along with videos making sure we all know where he stands on Muslims.\nOn his newly acquired Ernesto Trump Facebook page, Trump appears to be reveling in the attention that suddenly comes with being a long-lost member of the First Family.\nNo word yet on when the Trump family reunion will happen or what position in the federal government Ernesto will hold.\nTagsTexas, Donald Trump, ernesto trump, Name Change, weird news",

        "raw_content": "Home / Blog / 2018 / January / Beyond Theory: 5 Lessons For Achieving Real Results\nMark Ryland invested in his Mr Electric business, finding a balance between his future goal and past experiences. Combined with the training they offer, Mark\u2019s business goes from strength-to-strength.\nWhen Mark Ryland took early retirement from an IT career in 2003, he didn\u2019t envision years later he would be running his own business, witnessing the kind of success his Mr Electric, in South West London is experiencing.\nHe says, \u201cI remember I was grumbling yet again about work when I realised that as a trained electrical engineer, with an MBA, I should be running my own business. This hit a chord: I wanted to action the theories I had learned.\u201d\nBased on Mark\u2019s experiences, here are 5 lessons for achieving real results:\nDon\u2019t throw away your past experiences\nNot everything you do is a waste of time, even though it may feel like it when you are in the moment, or having just walked away. Some people have walked out of one career into a completely different one, because they became bored, unfulfilled or disillusioned. But there are ways to use what you know, to advance your own career, in the direction you want.\n\u201cI\u2019d been involved in IT for around 20 years.\u201d Mark says. \u201cWhile I knew I wanted to do something different, I didn\u2019t want to start back at the beginning.\u201d\nInvest in a better version of yourself\nMark had already been dreaming about running his own business, so took steps to invest in his future goal by attaining an MBA. Whatever you want to achieve this year, finding ways to power yourself up to the next level is definitely worth investing time and money into.\n\u201cI wanted to move into management. I had a dream of owning my own business, but had no clue where to start!\u201d Mark says. \u201cStudying for a Master\u2019s in Business Administration offered me the background knowledge I would need to manage my own business. This gave me confidence to take the next step forward.\u201d\nCombine what you know with an expert voice\nWith a franchise opportunity like Mr Electric, Mark has been able to combine his skills with a proven business model. Originally launched in America in 1994, Mr Electric has risen to become one of the biggest names in the electrical service sector, as part of franchising powerhouse, The Dwyer Group. Franchisees combine management skills with Mr Electric\u2019s experience, to supply contractors for all aspects of electrical servicing and maintenance.\nMark says, \u201cI chose Mr Electric, because I knew I needed the support offered by a franchise, to run my own business. When I met Mr Electric\u2019s Franchise Manager at a Franchise Show, I was impressed with his honest and direct answers. He went beyond the \u2018sales pitch\u2019. And I could see a way in which I could most effectively use my electrical engineering training, with the MBA I\u2019d worked hard to achieve, alongside their business model.\u201d\nPractice the theories\nMr Electric are committed to providing ongoing support for their franchisees, from business start-up, to on-going training such as in marketing, advertising, and technology which help keep you ahead of competitors.\n\u201cThe initial training I received from Mr Electric was very good.\u201d Mark says. \u201cAlong with other new franchisees, we spent time with Mr Electric\u2019s Head Office team who ran through everything we would need to know about our new business. Developed from almost 25 years\u2019 experience, based on over 2,800 franchisees worldwide as part of the Dwyer Group, Mr Electric has a reputation for integrity, professional excellence and quality customer service.\u201d\nWith his understanding of IT and the support of Mr Electric, Mark has since moved his business online, and discovered the importance of PPC (pay per click) advertising to propel his business forward.\n\u201cSome franchisees worry about how much they are spending on PPC, SEO or web leads.\u201d Mark says. \u201cBut over the last year I have converted some of the leads generated, into an amazing amount of money \u2013 not bad for a cost just under \u00a311! Doing the first job for one new customer, generated from PPC, allowed me to establish a relationship with them, and find out more about their future plans, and how I could offer my services. In the end, this one lead converted into a massive \u00a322,000!\u201d\nMr. Electric London South West highlights how PPC, SEO and web leads are what you make of them. Providing fantastic service, quality workmanship and simply building a relationship all come naturally when you follow the Dwyer Group\u2019s C.U.S.T.O.M.E.R. system, and it shows this can pay off in magnificent ways!\nMany franchisees choose to join Mr Electric having already either worked previously as an electrician, or have experience in management. As Mark demonstrates, with the support of the Mr Electric franchise, you can turn your dream into a real-life achievement.\nIf you are interested in finding out more about C.U.S.T.O.M.E.R. alongside more than 2,800 Dwyer Group franchisees, currently operating around the world, providing essential services to over 2.5 million customers, make Mr Electric your next step.

Exterior and interior glass doors were smashed to the value of \u20ac3,000, but nothing was taken.\nThe raiders then attempted to gain entry into McGreal\u2019s Jewellery shop in the shopping centre and the front window of the shop was again smashed to the cost of \u20ac1,500. No entry was gained and nothing was taken from the store.\nGarda\u00ed believe the same individuals may have been involved in an incident just 30 minutes later in Rhode village, just 11 kilometres outside Edenderry.\nThe alarm at Rhode Post Office and adjoining shop was activated at 4.30am, and when the shop owner turned off the alarm, he witnessed two men running from the back of the premises. No entry gained and nothing was taken.\nFrom there, it's expected the same men moved to Clonbullogue where males were observed climbing over a gate to gain access to the rear of Clonbullogue Post Office and shop. When they were startled by witnesses, the men fled the scene and nothing was taken.\nAny one with information about these incidents is being asked to contact the investigating garda\u00ed at Edenderry Garda Station at 046 973 1290.",

        "raw_content": "In Pennsylvania, a DUI checkpoint is a marked, stationary roadblock conducted by law enforcement for several hours at a time. The police officers on the scene of a checkpoint use a predetermined standard in deciding which cars to stop and check for driver intoxication. Sometimes, those who are arrested on a first-time DUI offense at a checkpoint are released on their own recognizance (OR), but other cases will require a Luzerne County bail bond for the offender to be released from jail.\nThe use of DUI checkpoints in Pennsylvania has become controversial. While those in favor of checkpoints consider the stops to be deterrents to drunk driving, others believe that roadblocks intrude upon a person\u2019s constitutional rights. However, a DUI roadblock is indeed considered constitutional so long as it meets the following requirements:\nNondiscriminatory methods of stopping cars must be used at DUI checkpoints. Officers can stop every car, every other car, every fourth car, etc. But, whatever method chosen for stopping cars must be nondiscriminatory against the drivers.\nThe stop must be brief and it cannot include a search of the vehicle or its occupants (unless if officers find probable cause to do so).\nPolice must give advance notice of a checkpoint in the form of road signs or notices through the media.\nThe time and location of the roadblock must be based on a history of drunk driving offenses in that area.\nMistakes to Avoid After Being Arrested A Defendant\u2019s Rights at Trial",

        "raw_content": "Home News Racing Encore Dor Returns With Five Furlong Fast Track Qualifier Success At Newcastle\nEncore D'Or (Robert Cowell/Luke Morris, 9/4 favourite) made his first start of 2019 a winning one when swooping to win the \u00a330,000 Betway Conditions Race on Tapeta at Newcastle on January 22nd.\nThe five-furlong Tapeta contest was a Fast-Track Qualifier, with Encore D'Or now guaranteed a free and automatic place in the \u00a3150,000 Betway All-Weather Sprint Championship, staged over a furlong further on Polytrack at Lingfield Park on \u00a31-million All-Weather Championships Finals Day, Good Friday, April 19.\nIt was Ornate (David Griffiths/Phil Dennis, 11/1) who took the seven-strong field along with Encore D'Or settled just off the pace in third.\nEncore D'Or, trained by Robert Cowell in Newmarket, was asked to quicken approaching the final furlong and ran on well to take the lead in the final half-furlong.\nThe seven-year-old son of Oasis Dream went on to score by a neck from Ornate, who kept on well to hold second, with Stone Of Destiny (Andrew Balding/P J McDonald, 7/2) staying on from the rear to be third, a further half-length in arrears..\nThe winning time came to 58.27s - the record time for five furlongs on Tapeta at Newcastle is 57.78s.\nEncore D'Or was recording his 11th career victory, of which eight have come on All-Weather surfaces. His biggest victory came in the Listed Scarbrough Stakes on turf at Doncaster in 2017, while on his previous start he finished the half-length runner-up in the G3 Mercury Stakes on Polytrack at Dundalk on October 19.\nEncore D'Or races almost exclusively over five furlongs these days, but he did come third in the 2017 the \u00a3150,000 Betway All-Weather Sprint Championship over six furlongs.\nWinning jockey Luke Morris said: \"Encore D'Or is a real favourite of mine. I have won three races on him and, although he is a big, brute of a horse, he is a gentle giant who tries very hard.\n\"I saddled him this evening and when I put the saddle on, I was slightly concerned as he looked a bit burly. Robert [Cowell] has left plenty to work on and I think Encore D'Or will improve from today.\n\"He has not done that much work coming here, though I worked him the other day and he worked well. He was the class act in the field and I am pleased he was able to show that tonight.\n\"I was almost going too easily at the furlong pole and got there a fraction sooner than I wanted to really. He idled a bit in front and got a bit tired as well. I think there is plenty more to come.\n\"I am sure all roads will lead to Good Friday now, with possibly a couple of Listed races on the way.\n\"He has won plenty of five-furlong handicaps around Lingfield and, on this mark, is more than capable of winning a Listed race (the Listed Betway Hever Sprint Stakes on February 23).\n\"I rode him in the sprint final two years ago and he finished third. For me, he probably needs to step up again to beat Kachy, but he has every chance of being in the mix.\"\nTrainer David Griffiths, based in South Yorkshire, said of the runner-up: \"I am delighted with Ornate. Obviously, you don't like getting beat in a race like that, but he was wrong at the weights and has run a cracker.\n\"You have to think that is his best run for a long time. We were hoping the winner and the third would be a bit rusty on their first runs back, and that we would be able to get away with it, but the winner is a class horse on his day. The third is decent too and he has split them, so hopefully we are on the way up.\n\"He had a couple of runs here for Robert [Cowell] and didn't run very well. Newcastle can be a funny track like that, sometimes they like it and sometimes they don't, but he seemed fine tonight.\n\"He will get six furlongs too and even at the end there he was coming back at the winner. There is Finals Day to look at over six and I think we will have some fun with him on the grass as well.\n\"Ornate was wrong all last year pretty much. He wasn't finishing his races and dropped 20lb in the ratings and we were literally scratching our heads wondering what was up with him.\n\"We eventually found it and his run at Wolverhampton [in December] was probably his first real good run. He has just gone on and on since then.\n\"There is a 0-100 handicap at Southwell before he gets assessed again next Thursday, so he could go there.\"\nEarlier on the Newcastle card, there were two \u00a325,000 handicaps. The first of these was the extended two-mile Betway Live Casino Handicap which went to Busy Street (Michael Appleby/Alistair Rawlinson, 9st, 6/1).\nThe winner triumphed by three quarters of a length after a sustained duel in the final furlong with 6/5 favourite Stargazer (Phil Kirby/Robert Winston, 9st 12lb), who had won a Fast-Track Qualifier over the course and distance on December 15.\nBusy Street, a Juddmonte Farms-bred seven-year-old son of Champs Elysees, was running over two miles for the first time in his career.\nWinning jockey Alistair Rawlinson said: \"I always thought Busy Street was a horse that could relax over any trip. He has won over a mile and a quarter at Yarmouth and has come and won over two miles here.\n\"He switched off and I got a lovely tow into the race. He travelled round effortlessly and, to be fair, I was just trying to keep him on the bridle as long as I could.\n\"The step-up in trip was in the back of my mind but, in all heart, he has done it very well and we had full faith in him.\n\"He is a brilliant little horse. I don't how much the lads got him for (\u00a312,000 at Goffs in May, 2018), but he has always been ultra-consistent and a big run like that was what he needed as he has bumped into horses that were either very well-in or just nice horses in general.\n\"For him to get his head in front for a nice prize is brilliant for the lads and the boss.\"\nPart-owner Martyn Elvin added: \"I had my reservations about running over two miles today. He had been running over a mile and a half on the turf and the handicapper seemed to have got him as he was always finishing second and third. He was paying for himself.\n\"Mick (Appleby - trainer) and I looked at this race and thought if he can get two miles at Newcastle, it brings a lot more options. Really, I was just not optimistic at all and I didn't back him. I just wanted him to stay.\n\"I think he has stayed well and it was a really, really perfect ride from Ali. He knew what he had to do.\n\"If you can get two miles at Newcastle, you can get two miles anyway. If you ask Mick Appleby what he thinks, he is on about the Cesarewitch and even talking about going to Australia.\"\nPinnata (Stuart Williams/Joe Fanning, 8st 6lb, 2/1 favourite) brought up an All-Weather three-timer when taking the \u00a325,000 sunracing.co.uk Handicap over seven furlongs. The five-year-old son of Shamardal was following up wins over a mile on Polytrack at Chelmsford (November 29) and Kempton Park (December 14).\nGoing to the front a quarter of a mile from home, Pinnata ran on well for a comfortable length and a half success over Straight Right (Andrew Balding/P J McDonald, 9st 9lb, 9/4).\nJoe Fanning said: \"Pinnata is a hell of a horse. Stuart (Williams) just said we are dropping back in trip but just travel comfortably, and the horse has done it very well.\n\"Two and a half out, I was going very well but Stuart said with the drop back in trip when you get to halfway make sure you squeeze him on from there.\n\"He has done it well today and hopefully there is more to come.\"\nWinning joint-owner, Hertfordshire-based David Reynolds who owns the horse in partnership with Chris Watkins, added: \"You can never be confident at this level, but Pinnata won very well last time and we thought we still had a bit in hand.\n\"We were up against some good animals today but he won it well. We were dropping back to seven today but that didn't bother me. He is a lovely little horse.\n\"Stuart is a top trainer and I have had a couple of horses with him for years and years. One of our first horses with him was Blacktoft about 15 years ago who won about 11 races, eight on the All-Weather.\n\"We then moved on to horses like The Scorching Wind and Mythical Blue. At the moment, we are also partners in Human Nature.\n\"We would love to aspire to Good Friday with Pinnata and it is a possibility. We will sit down with Stuart and see what is available. The horse is quite versatile, as he has won over a mile and would probably get a mile and a quarter too.\n\"There are lots of options with him It is a great position to be in to have such a nice little horse.\"",

        "raw_content": "Eli Rosenbaum: Nazi Hunter\nFor a man who\u2019s devoted nearly 30 years of his life hounding the despicable men and women who\u2019ve committed crimes against humanity, Eli Rosenbaum doesn\u2019t look so menacing.\nGiven the choice, he\u2019d rather watch the Yankees or see a comedy than sit through another Hollywood movie about the horrors of the Holocaust. He\u2019s been living with that gruesome reality almost 24/7 ever since the U.S. Department of Justice\u2019s Office of Special Investigations hired him out of Harvard Law School in 1980.\nToday the 57-year-old Long Island native is the director of the human rights and special prosecutions section, making him the Justice Department\u2019s longest-running investigator of human rights violators living in the United States.\n\u201cSo my entire career is really a summer internship gone awry!\u201d he says with a grin.\nThere\u2019s a kindness in his brown eyes that belies the evil he\u2019s had to face. He helped deport Boleslavs Maikovskis, a Nazi war criminal living in Mineola, and Karl Linnas, a former concentration camp commander living in Greenlawn. Because nature has finally enacted a \u201cbiological solution\u201d to that Nazi generation, his section is now pursuing war criminals from the likes of Bosnia, Guatemala and Rwanda, who think they\u2019ve found a safe haven here. His message to them: \u201cYou\u2019ll have to be looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life.\u201d\nGrowing up \u201con the south side of Old Country Road in Westbury,\u201d attending high school in East Meadow, and studying Hebrew three days a week, it\u2019s surprising how little Rosenbaum knew about the genocide of World War II until one Sunday afternoon on his family\u2019s black and white TV he saw a dramatization of the Nuremberg Trials by Peter Weiss, a German playwright. Rosenbaum couldn\u2019t have been more than 12.\n\u201cThe Holocaust wasn\u2019t spoken about in my household\u2014it was too painful for my parents,\u201d he recalls. They had both fled Germany before the war.\nBut Rosenbaum\u2019s father did return, wearing a U.S. Army uniform. One winter some 25 years after the war, Eli and his dad were driving through a blizzard when his father casually mentioned that he had been one of the first Americans to report on Dachau after its liberation in April 1945.\n\u201cI said, \u2018Well, what did you see?\u2019 I\u2019m looking out at the road, and I didn\u2019t hear anything. Finally I look at my father, and I see that his eyes have welled with tears. His mouth is open like he wants to speak but he can\u2019t do it. He\u2019s crying\u2026To the day he died, he never told me.\u201d\nHe found out for himself. Today, a father, Rosenbaum credits his wife of 25 years, Cynthia, who also has a law degree, for keeping him balanced. \u201cShe keeps me sane despite the awful stuff that I have to deal with\u2014the subject matter of my work.\u201d\nRecently Rosenbaum was in Manhattan sharing the dais at the Four Seasons with Sara Bloomfield, executive director of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., which was celebrating its 20th anniversary\u2014and has been an invaluable resource for Rosenbaum\u2019s investigations.\nThe Nazis, it turns out, expecting they would win the war and rule for 1,000 years, kept meticulous records.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve done the best job of any law enforcement agency in the world in hunting these people down,\u201d he says. \u201cI like to think that this effort is carried out for the victims who perished and the victims who survived.\u201d\nPrevious articleOyster Bay Clam Wars Intensify\nNext articleJennifer Nevadomski: Co-Founder & Mom-In-Chief Long Island Networking Moms",

The principal is the party assigned the work, such as individual contractors or a large construction company, as well as the party required to buy the bond. The obligee is the project owner who awards the contract for the work and who requires the bond. The surety is the insurance company that provides the bond. It is the surety company's responsibility, in the event that the principal fails to produce the work outlined in the contract, to employ a new principal to complete the contracted project or to compensate the obligee for financial losses.\nSurety bonds may be varied to protect other essential elements contained within a contract, including payment to subcontractors and workers. Because the successful completion of large developments rely on numerous independent parties with specialized functions, the prospect of the entire project collapsing on the failure of one of its pieces is too great for an obligee to accept without this kind of insurance.\nThose affected by surety bonds often rely the counsel of business attorneys who are well versed in contract law.

First Nuremberg edition.\nRARE: ISTC locates only about 30 copies worldwide, of which only 3 in the US and 1 in UK.\nA scarce incunable edition of \"AN INTERESTING TREATISE ON THE CONDITION OF THE HUMAN SOUL AFTER DEATH.\" (Catholic Encyclopedia)\nThis curious work \"DEALS SYSTEMATICALLY WITH POLTERGEISTS AND MALEVOLENT GHOSTS, souls calling out for intercessory masses and spirits from Heaven and Hell. Jacob [...] wrote the treatise when asked for advice regarding a ghost haunting the Franciscan friary in nearby Leipzig.\" (Koslofsky, The Reformation of the Dead, p.26).\n\"The Cisterciensian abbot Jacob of J\u00fcterbogk (1381 - 1465) [...] in his treatise Tractatus de animabus exutis a corporibus [states] that the dead do not always manifest themselves visibly but attract attention by (the later termed phenomenon) a poltergeist. They throw stones, break pots, overturn furniture, terrorize people in various ways and horrify them by whistling, sneezing, groaning, crying, wailing, and clapping. [...]\n\"The author explains procedures through which one enters into contact with the souls of the dead. The rituals he described are reminiscent of Johannes Gobi. Four or five priests after confession and mass go to the place where the spirit habitually appears. Then holy water is sprinkled and God is implored to enable the spirit to reveal who he is, why he has come, and what he wants. The intensity of the procedure to ward off the dead, the ghosts, their cult in cemeteries, sepulchers, and graves, and the ceremonies held for the salvation of the soul may prove that the living obviously could not be sure that the dead would stick to their area.\" (C. A. Tuczay, Interactions with Apparitions, Ghosts, and Revenants in Ancient and Medieval Sources. In: J. Houran (ed.), 'From Shaman to Scientist: Essays on Humanity's Search for Spirits', p.122-3)\n\"Bumps, throwing, whistling, sneezing, groaning, cries, wailing, clapping manifest the invisible presence of the soul that the living will have to question. The author takes up his pen to reassure the faithful, to invite them to aid the souls of the dead [...] His treatise demonstrates, from beginning to end, a perfect integration of ghosts into the official religious system of the time. [...]\n\"The concrete procedures through which one enters into contact with the souls of the dead in particular captured the author's attention. Words do not mislead: he speaks of 'the experimentation,' the 'ceremony,' and the 'questioning' to which souls must be subjected. [...] The ritual he describes recalls to the smallest detail the one that Johannes Gobi says he used in Ales: four or five priests, having confessed and having said their mass, go to the place where the spirit habitually appears. They first assure themselves that \"all superstitious inquiry ceases\": any uncontrolled act that might recall ancient necromancy must disappear, to be replaced by an ecclesiastical ceremony that resembled necromancy greatly but that alone was legitimate. [...]\n\"The word 'exorcism' is not used [...] that rite and the official role of the exorcist did not yet have the identity they would later acquire. A candle that was blessed at the time of the preceding feast of the purification (Candlemas) is brought, holy water is sprinkled, and the sign of the cross is made, the censer is swung while 'the seven psalms or the gospel of John' is sung. 'The stole does not seem useless,' specifies [the author]. Didn't the ghost of Beaucaire call it 'the bond of the devil'? There then follows a humble prayer intended to implore God to enable the spirit to reveal, without wronging those present, 'who he is, why he has come and what he wants.' [...]\n\"The author notes, however, that such an ecclesiastical ceremony is not always necessary for the revelations of the souls of the deceased. Within the domestic and familial framework there was a place for a direct manifestation 'of the dead husband to his wife, or vice versa, of the father to his son, or vice versa, of the mother to her daughter, or vice versa, of the brother to the brother, etc.' He therefore emphasizes the importance of kinship relationships, which we have already seen in tales of all sorts. Yet, wherever all ecclesiastical guarantees were not gathered together, it was necessary to call on other criteria to ensure the 'truth' of the apparition. Supported by scriptural examples (the Annunciation, the dreams of Daniel), in the case of the visit of a good spirit, the fear that struck the witness did not last long. The formal connection between the appearance and the being (between species and res) was also a good sign: a good dead person kept his or her voice and appearance as a person, whereas an evil spirit readily changed into a lion, a bear, a frog, a snake, a black cat, a dog, or a black shadow. Only a white dove was positive. Finally, the words and gestures of a spirit were signs that did not lie: if they contravened faith and morality, one was dealing with an evil spirit.\" (Jean-Claude Schmitt, Ghosts in the Middle Ages: The Living and the Dead in Medieval Society, p.156-8)\nJacob of J\u00fcterbogk (c. 1381 \u2013 1465) was a German monk and theologian, known in the world as Benedict Stolzenhagen. He was born at J\u00fcsterbog in Brandenburg, of poor peasant stock. He joined a Cistercian monastery of Paradiz in Poland, and was, sent by the abbot to the university of Krakow, where he obtained the degrees of master in philosophy and doctor of theology and became a professor at that university. He then returned to his monastery, of which he became abbot. Displeased at the loose discipline of his order, he entered the Carthusian monastery at Erfurt in 1441, and also taught canon law at Erfurt university for many years, and was elected rector in 1456. From the time of his entrance into the Carthusian Order he was often called Jacobus Carthusianus or Jacobus de Clusa. He was full of zeal for reform in the Church, and in some of his writings severely criticizes Italian ecclesiastics for bestowing responsible benefices upon incapable and unworthy persons. Like many other great men of his time, he advocated the so-called conciliar theory, i.e. that a general council is above the pope. He is the author of numerous treatises, mostly on theological and canonical subjects.\nGoff J-27; Hain-Copinger 9345; GW 10829; BMC II:471; BMC II 471; CIBN J-31; BSB-Ink I-36; Proctor 2279; IGI 4971.\nSlim Quarto; leaves measure 195 mm x 142 mm.

        "raw_content": "When it comes to making home improvements before selling or after buying, the decision to do it yourself or hire a contractor can be difficult.\nOn one hand, you can save money by doing it yourself, but if you don\u2019t have a lot of time or help, the entire project may take a lot longer than planned. If, however, you hire a contractor, you will wind up paying more money, but the project will probably be completed more quickly.\nThe first question you must ask yourself when trying to decide whether to do it yourself or hire a contractor is, how skilled are you at making the necessary repairs?\nIt\u2019s important to know which aspects you will be able to do yourself and which ones will need to be completed by someone else.\nFor example, many people are great at laying flooring and installing kitchen cabinets, but they still have to call someone else in to handle the plumbing and electrical.\nKnowing your limitations will help you save money because you\u2019ll be able to figure out just how much everything should cost in the end.\nSo when should you do it yourself? The answer to this question depends on several factors.\nFirst, figure out how soon you need the renovations completed. Can you make time in your life to complete projects. Is there another reason you might need to get the renovations done quickly? Perhaps you just purchased the house and would like some updates done before moving into your new home\nIn this case, you may want to consider finding other people to help you. If you are unable to do this, then it\u2019s probably time to call a contractor.\nIf, on the other hand, you are comfortable living in the home while completing the renovations, you may be able to take your time doing the work. What it comes down to is how much time you have and whether or not you are actually losing money by taking longer.\nIf you are purchasing properties to rent, you probably want to move tenants in as soon as possible. In this case, hiring a contractor would probably be the best option. If you are unable to afford one, doing the work yourself may be a viable option. You will, however, wind up making mortgage payments without getting any money in return.\nIf you decide to do the work yourself, you\u2019ll need to figure up how much the materials will cost. Begin by working up a budget so you can decide what types of materials to use. Go with what you can afford. Spending more may be preferable, but if you really can\u2019t afford it in the end, you\u2019ll find yourself out a lot of money.\nWhen hiring a contractor, ask around for recommendations from friends, family and co-workers. Speak with a few of the contractors that were recommended. Review what exactly you would like do and obtain estimates. Comparing costs is a great idea. As a general rule, three different estimates complete with detailed drawings and specifications are usually sufficient.\nIf you are still unsure about whether or not you should do it yourself or hire a contractor, compare the overall costs of both. This is a great way to see how much money you\u2019ll spend and how much you\u2019ll save.",

Yes. But, we have also failed to eliminate the \u201creasons\u201d for the demand. There is still rape, unprepared parents, and immense physical and emotional suffering. Until the cause is dealt with, the desire for these solutions will remain.

        "raw_content": "Many eu professionals could leave uk after brexit\nA survey of members of the union Prospect has found that two-thirds of EU citizens working in a range of specialist sectors say they might leave the UK because of Brexit.\nProspect represents a wide range of professionals including those in fields such as science and research, engineering, nuclear, heritage, aviation, broadcasting and the arts. Its survey of members has found that 66% of non-UK EU workers say they may leave the UK after Brexit.\nThe findings suggest that sectors where the UK is reliant on EU workers could face real problems after Brexit. Reasons given include members worried about paperwork, being made to feel unwelcome, the government's hostile environment, worries about being discriminated against, uncertainty about leave to remain and general economic uncertainty.\nIn fact, 85% of EU nationals polled agreed that \"Brexit has made EU citizens from outside the UK feel less welcome\". In addition, 81% of respondents said Brexit will make their job less secure.\nThe science and research sector could be most at risk from Brexit. According to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), around 175,000 non-UK EEA nationals work in this area. Key concerns from scientists include future funding and collaboration with EU partners.\nProspect said the government has not done enough to reassure business, research and EU nationals that Brexit can be made to work for them.\n\"Our members work in a variety of skilled professions across the UK economy and they are overwhelmingly telling us that leaving the EU will have a negative impact on their work, and on the industry they work in,\" said Mike Clancy, Prospect general secretary.\n\"It is particularly depressing that a large majority of EU citizens report feeling less welcome here due to Brexit and that many have considered leaving the country. This would be a disaster for vital areas of the UK economy including science and research, the arts and heritage, which are already facing difficulties because of problems with funding and cross-border collaboration, caused by Brexit uncertainty.\"\nIn the meantime, he added, \"employers can also do their bit to reassure EU workers by agreeing to pay their EU settled status fee.\"",

As part of the Conservative Party\u2019s Project Umubano, a social action project in Rwanda, Mark worked with survivors of the Rwandan genocide to help the people living there to recover.\nHolocaust Memorial Day is marked annually on 27th January, the anniversary of the liberation of the former Nazi concentration and death camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. In the lead up to and on Holocaust Memorial Day, thousands of commemorative events will be arranged by schools, faith groups and community organisations across the country, remembering all the victims of the Holocaust and subsequent genocides. The theme for this year\u2019s commemorations is \u2018Torn from Home\u2019.\nSpeaking after signing the book of commitment, Mark said:\n\u201cHolocaust Memorial Day is an important opportunity for people from Rugby and Bulkington to reflect on the tragic events of the Holocaust. As the Holocaust moves from living history, to \u2018just\u2019 history, it becomes ever more important that we take the time to remember the victims and pay tribute to those who survived these appalling events.\u201d\n\u201cI am a very strong supporter of the work of the Holocaust Educational Trust. Alongside a number of pupils from Rugby I have visited Auschwitz-Birkenau and I will never forget not only my visit, but also the terrible crimes that were committed there. I have also visited Rwanda to take part in charitable work there, helping those who survived the 1994 Rwandan genocide. As fierce conflicts continue to rage throughout the world, the work of charities such as the Holocaust Memorial Trust remains as important as ever and I would encourage local people to show their support on this important day.\u201d\nKaren Pollock MBE, Chief Executive of the Holocaust Educational Trust, added:\n\u201cThe Holocaust did not start in the gas chambers but with hate filled words. Our mission is to educate young people from every background about the Holocaust and its contemporary relevance. We are very grateful to Mark for signing the Book of Commitment, signalling a continued commitment to remembering the victims of the Holocaust as well as challenging antisemitism, prejudice and bigotry in all its forms.\u201d",

        "title": "Senior Driver Accident in Huntsville, AL | Car Accident Injury Attorneys",
        "raw_content": "Have You Been Injured in an Alabama Car Accident with an At-Fault Senior Driver?\nAccording to Consumer Reports, drivers over the age of 80 are involved in 5.5 times as many fatal crashes, per mile driven, as middle-aged drivers. With more than 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 every single day over the next 18 years, by 2030, seniors will represent almost one in five drivers, outnumbering 16-19 year-olds by more than three to one. As senior drivers begin to lose reaction time, as well as some other abilities necessary to driving, safety risks for all may climb. Although older drivers have experience\u2014something teen drivers do not\u2014and tend to drive much less than younger drivers, consider the following statistics regarding senior drivers:\nAbout half of all those in their fifties and sixties, and 80 percent of those in their 70\u2019s, suffer from some level of inflammation of the joints (arthritis), which can make some normal driving maneuvers painful;\nA full three-quarters of those over the age of 65 take one or more prescription medications, however only about a third of those taking these prescription drugs understand the potential impact on their driving abilities;\nSenior drivers may suffer from reduced flexibility, which could potentially restrict their ability to grip and turn the steering wheel or press on the brake or gas pedals;\nSenior drivers are more likely than younger drivers to be involved in a multi-vehicle crash;\nSenior drivers are more likely than younger drivers to be involved in intersection collisions;\nA 60-year old requires ten times the light to see at night as a 19-year old, meaning night driving for seniors may be particularly hazardous;\nMore than a third of those over the age of 65 have significant levels of hearing loss which can be a hazard when driving;\nProcessing time, judgment and concentration can be diminished with age, making it difficult to multi-task, more likely for seniors to be subject to distractions, and reducing the ability to process information quickly, and\nWhile older drivers are less likely to drink and drive than other adult drivers, there were still 7 percent of older drivers involved in fatal car collisions who had a BAC over the legal limit.\n\u201cGas-Pedal\u201d Accidents Much More Common Among Senior Drivers\nFurther, older drivers are much more likely to be involved in \u201cgas pedal\u201d accidents, which occur when the driver accidentally steps on the gas pedal instead of the brake. A government study done for the NHTSA in 2012, by the Highway Safety Research Center at the University of North Carolina, concluded that accidents in which drivers mistakenly hit the gas pedal instead of the brake overwhelmingly tend to involve older drivers, particularly older female drivers in parking lots. In 2003, one of the most tragic gas-pedal accidents occurred in Santa Monica, California, when an 86-year old male driver, who intended to brake, accidentally stepped on the gas pedal, plowing through an open-air market, killing ten pedestrians and injuring 63.\nDoes the State of Alabama Regulate Older Drivers?\nAlthough some states require older drivers to renew their driver\u2019s license more often after a certain age, or take more frequent eye and driving tests in order to maintain a license, the state of Alabama treats older drivers no differently than any other driver. While we want to believe that the older driver (or the family of the driver) will realize when he or she is no longer able to drive safely, and voluntarily stop driving, in fact mobility is a huge issue for senior drivers. Driving gives elderly drivers a sense of independence and autonomy, which can be difficult to give up, or to take away. On the flip side, there comes a point for many senior drivers, where they are a danger to themselves, as well as other drivers sharing the roadways.\nWere You Hit By a Senior Driver?\nIf you were hit by an at-fault senior driver in the state of Alabama, it could be extremely beneficial for you to speak to an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible. Speaking to an attorney regarding your accident could help you recover the financial compensation you are entitled to, if an elderly driver acted in a negligent manner, causing property damage and injuries. A knowledgeable attorney from Martinson & Beason can help you, whether you were injured by an elderly driver or you lost a loved one due to the negligence of a senior driver. Our attorneys will be your advocate, ensuring your rights are fully protected in the aftermath of your accident.

Time to abandon the paradigm of \u201cfixing\u201d tactical pain points in one \u201cdepartment\u201d\u2014with remedies that can unwittingly create problems in others. It is time to quit defining progress as a zero-sum game, in which ratios of program vs overhead expenditures are the only way to measure success.\nWe have entered an era in which 10X thinking is not only possible, it is essential. A time when social impact organizations can make and measure progress in orders of magnitude\u2014rather than fractions of each dollar \u201cwasted.\u201d\nTransforming our organizations does not just mean taking advantage of the many opportunities to do new things. It requires living up to the obligation to think in new ways. To see our work\u2014and the challenges we face\u2014in a different light.\nReinvention means reinvestment\nSuccess will not come through \u201crandom acts of disruption.\u201d It will come through reigniting the heart and soul of our organizations. Empowering our people to ask the right questions\u2014and giving them the freedom to find the right answers wherever they can be found. To do whatever must be done.\nThis is not a time to toss out our beliefs, and reinvent our missions. It is a time to reinvest in them. To admit that the constant pressures of fundraising and public opinion and business-like behavior have subtly, but surely, taken us off our path. This is a time\u2014this is the time\u2014to see our mission as both a goal, and a tool to drive every element of our organizations. So everyone and everything is oriented toward the only thing that matters.\nA team of teams\nThe Matale Line was created to provide new thinking for a new era. Our small cadre of strategists and creatives works around the world to provide an unprecedented level of engagement to a small group of client partners, so they can create new pathways to success.

        "raw_content": "KNOXVILLE, TN \u2014 January 31, 2019 \u2013 Mountain Commerce Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQX: MCBI), the Knoxville, Tennessee-based bank holding company and parent of Mountain Commerce Bank (MCB), reported consolidated net income of $2.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, up from $0.9 million in the comparative quarter. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 totaled $0.45 versus $0.15 for the fourth quarter of 2017. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, the Company reported net income of $10.2 million, an 86% increase over the twelve-months ended December 31, 2017. Earnings per fully diluted share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 totaled $1.63 versus $0.89 for the comparative period in 2017. Included in the 2017 fourth quarter and full year 2017 results was a nonrecurring deferred tax charge of $916,000 ($0.15 per diluted share) relating to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.\nIn the fourth quarter of 2018, noninterest income grew 35% to $571,000 from $423,000 in the comparative quarter. While some of the noninterest income growth came from higher service charges that resulted from new customers, there was also a nonrecurring $64,500 charge to OREO Provision in 2017. Earnings also benefitted from a drop in the provision for loan losses due to the continuation of strong credit metrics. The efficiency ratio in the fourth quarter of 2018 was 45.9%, while annualized ROAE was 14.95% and annualized ROAA was 1.32%.\nFor the full year ended December 31, 2018, net interest income increased 13%, while noninterest income grew 9% and noninterest expense was up 3%. As was the case with the quarterly results, most of the increase in net interest income was due to earning asset growth. Earnings also benefitted from a lower provision for loan losses. The efficiency ratio for the full year 2018 was 48.5%, while ROAE was 14.35% and ROAA was 1.26%, with each of these figures improving from the comparative 2017 numbers. Nonperforming assets, which includes non-accruing loans and other real estate owned, was $7.6 million, or 0.9% of assets, at December 31, 2018, versus $9.0 million, or 1.2% of assets, at December 31, 2017. Nonperforming loans were $447,000, or 0.06% of loans, at December 31, 2018, versus $1.6 million, or 0.25% of loans, at December 31, 2017.\nTotal assets as of December 31, 2018 were $849.1 million, an increase of 14% from December 31, 2017. Gross loans increased 13% to $708.3 million and deposits grew 12% to $715.1 million from the December 31, 2017 balances. Shareholders\u2019 equity totaled $76.5 million, or 9.0% of assets, at December 31, 2018, versus $66.2 million, or 8.9% of assets, at December 31, 2017. The Bank is considered well-capitalized for all of the required regulatory capital metrics as of December 31, 2018.\nMCB is a state-chartered, FDIC-insured, century-old, financial services institution headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee and serving East Tennessee.

        "raw_content": "My granddaughter that is 11 1/2 years old, still sucks her thumb and has potty accidents several times a week. She only sees her father and me for about 3 weeks in the summer. I have asked her mother what she is doing about these problems so we can all be on the same page. She said she has given up. There has to be some kind of underlying problem for this to continue for so long. I am very reluctant to send her home before I get any information on what is going on with her. She did make the comment she could not tell me anything because I would tell her Dad and he would \"freak out.\" What should I do?\nThere is little doubt that your granddaughter is exhibiting some serious symptoms considering her age and stage of development. Given her age, 11 1/2, she could be experiencing social rejection and stigmatization at the hands of other children in school. Unless she is able to get control of these things, her social problems will worsen, if they have started, or will start and become a major issue that could leave terrible emotional scars.\nIt is impossible to know why she is behaving in this way. It could be that some of this is genetic in nature but, it is most likely that she is experiencing an extraordinary amount of anxiety caused by something unknown.\nI want to very much stress to you that your granddaughter is NOT doing these things deliberately and that she HAS NO CONTROL OVER THIS.\nYou will need her mother\u2019s cooperation for this but, what needs to be done is for your granddaughter to be referred to a child psychologist. The child psychologist will evaluate the problems that she is experiencing and recommend a course of action to help her. It is important that all of you act cooperatively and jointly. She is still young and has every opportunity to resolve whatever problems are going on with her.\nI want to urge that you, her father and her mother work jointly and cooperatively and refrain from engaging in angry and accusatory conflicts. I say this because she is already worried that her father might \"freak out.\" Who knows what is in her imagination. All of you should work together to get her help and I am sure she will recover just fine.",

For example, let's say you purchase a call option on shares of Intel ({ia_ext|Nasdaq: INTC|http://www.streetauthority.com/stocks/INTC}) with a strike price of $40 and an expiration date of April 16. This option gives you the right to purchase 100 shares of Intel at a price of $40 on or before April 16th (the right to do this, of course, will only be valuable if Intel is trading above $40 per share at that point in time).\nEvery option represents a contract between a buyer and seller. The seller (writer) has the obligation to either buy or sell stock (depending on what type of option he or she sold--either a call option or a put option) to the buyer at a specified price by a specified date. Meanwhile, the buyer of an options contract has the right, but not the obligation, to complete the transaction on or before a specified date. When an option expires, if it is not in the buyer's best interest to exercise the option, then he or she is not obligated to do anything. The buyer has purchased the option to carry out a certain transaction in the future -- hence the name.\nAs a quick example of how call options make money, let's say IBM ({ia_ext|NYSE: IBM|http://www.streetauthority.com/stocks/IBM}) stock is currently trading at $100 per share. Now let's say an investor purchases one call option contract on IBM at a price of $2 per contract. Note: Because each options contract represents an interest in 100 underlying shares of stock, the actual cost of this option will be $200 (100 shares x $2 = $200). This American contract happens to say the investor can purchase up to 100 shares for $100 each on or before January 1.\nHere's what will happen to the value of this call option under different scenarios:\nWhen the option expires, IBM is trading at $105.\nRemember: The American call option gives the buyer the right to purchase shares of IBM at $100 per share on or before January 1 (rather than only on January 1, as would be the case with a European option). The buyer could use the option to purchase those shares at $100, then immediately sell those same shares in the open market for $105. This option is therefore called \u201cin the money.\u201d Because of this, the option will sell for $5 (because each option represents an interest in 100 underlying shares, this will amount to a total sale price of $500). Because the investor purchased this option for $200, the net profit to the buyer from this trade will be $300.\nUsing the same analysis, the call option is worth $1 (or $100 total). Because the investor spent $200 to purchase the option, he or she will show a net loss of $1 (or $100 total). This option is called \u201cat the money,\u201d because the transaction is essentially a wash.\nWhen the option expires, IBM is trading at or below $100.\nIf IBM ends up at or below $100 on the option's expiration date, then the contract will expire \u201cout of the money.\u201d It will now be worthless, so the option buyer will lose 100% of his or her money (in this case, the full $200 that he or she spent for the option).\nThe Black Scholes model is a formula used to assign prices to option contracts, but it is geared toward European options. American options command higher prices than European options because the American options essentially allow the investor several chances to capture profits, whereas the European options allow the investor only one chance to capture profits.\nInvestors use options for two primary reasons -- to speculate and to hedge risk. To speculate is to simply bet on the direction of price changes. Hedging, however, is like buying insurance -- it is protection against unforeseen events. Using options to hedge your portfolio accomplishes this for some investors.\nIn general, European options are riskier than American options because they allow only one day of exercise opportunity to the investor. American options give the underlying stock more chances on which to rise enough to put the option in the money. For sellers of European option contracts, this all can be an advantage.\nMany index options are European options, so investors should be sure to understand the nature of what they\u2019re buying.\nEnglish Language Learners Definition of stock option\nUS : a right that is given by a company to an employee that lets the employee purchase stock in the company usually for a price that is lower than the normal price\nSee the full definition for stock option in the English Language Learners Dictionary\nLegal Definition of stock option\nsee option sense 3\nMore from Merriam-Webster on stock option\nRhyming Dictionary: Words that rhyme with stock option\nBritannica.com: Encyclopedia article about stock option\nComments on stock option\nWhat made you want to look up stock option?

        "title": "Add These Oils To Your Daily Grooming Routine For Healthy Skin - Men's Health",
        "raw_content": "Add These Oils To Your Daily Grooming Routine For Healthy Skin\nThis post is sponsored by Lipidol\nSkin loves oil.\nSkincare oils are nothing new. In fact the origin of skincare began with oils in 3 000 BC in ancient Egypt, when grooming was a luxury, made available to the wealthy few. During the Industrial Revolution however, oils were combined with water to make it affordable and accessible to the masses. Given that oil and water do not mix, the product was then stabilized using emulsifiers, resulting in a cream or lotion.\nCosmetic scientist and owner of Cosmetic Solutions, John Knowlton explains; \u201cit is the oil in a cream or lotion that confers the beneficial effects on the skin and the water fraction has no value whatsoever, other than to provide an aesthetically pleasing way of applying the product to the skin\u2019s surface. Thus, if a pure oil, or a mixture of oils, is applied to the skin directly, a much more potent result is normally obtained, as there is no water present to dilute the beneficial effects of the oils themselves.\u201d\nThe outermost layer of the skin is an oily layer. Its purpose is to hold moisture in the skin; an important function because moisture facilitates enzyme activity, which in turn leads to healthy, radiant skin. There are however occasions when moisture does escape. The main culprit is daily washing with soap, which strips away the skin\u2019s oily layer. Another is a dry climate, which draws moisture from the skin into the outside air. Also, as the skin ages it produces less oil and it becomes harder to hold moisture in the skin. It is not possible to replace lost moisture by applying moisture to the skin as the skin\u2019s moisture comes from within. The advantage of using oil in everyday skincare is that the skin\u2019s natural oily layer is continually supplemented.\nDeveloped by the makers of Bio-Oil, Lipidol is the world\u2019s first range of oils for daily skincare. The range consists of two wash-off products \u2013 a Cleansing Face Oil and Cleansing Body Oil \u2013 that wash off dirt without stripping the oily layer; and four leave-on products \u2013 an After Shower Oil, Sunscreen Oil (SPF 20), After Shave Oil and Overnight Face Oil \u2013 that substitute the skin\u2019s natural oily layer to help retain its moisture.\nAll the products in the range have been fragranced using essential oils and dyed using natural plant extracts. Lipidol has been independently tested and found to be suitable for sensitive skin and is non-comedogenic.\nLipidol is exclusively available at selected Clicks stores and retail from R89.95 each. Click here to purchase Lipidol through Clicks\u2019 online store.\nVisit www.lipidol.com to learn more about each of the products range.",

        "raw_content": "Interview: The Container Store-Thinking Outside of the Box\nAmy Carovillano, vice president logistics and distribution for The Container Store, talks about DC operations at one of America's \"Best Companies to Work For.\"\nIn 1978 Garrett Boone (chairman) and Kip Tindell (CEO and president), opened a small store that sold storage and organization products to help people streamline and simplify their lives. In so doing they created a new retail category and a company that has steadily grown revenues by approximately 20 percent per year ever since. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, today The Container Store operates 34 retail outlets in 15 U.S. markets with projected 2005 sales of $450 million.\nFortune magazine has named The Container Store at or near the top of its list of \"The 100 Best Companies to Work For\" for the past five years. The company's retail formula consists of: unique, high-quality products; equal or better prices than the competition; and service beyond comparison. To achieve competitive prices and superior service, the company lavishes attention on selecting \"great\" people and training them to excel. Each store has a full-time sales trainer and all employees receive 162 hours of training on average each year.\nSeveral years ago company leaders noticed that the company's unique culture had not been replicated at its distribution center. If they could create a different culture in retail, they thought, with happy, career employees delivering superior service, why couldn't they do the same thing in their warehouse? Tindell asked Amy Carovillano, who was working in the corporate office at the time, if she believed it could be done. She didn't see why it not, so he put her in charge of distribution.\nA double major in biochemistry and microbiology, Carovillano started working at The Container Store as a temporary job until she found a real job. She says she fell in love with the company and the culture. She eventually became a store manager in Houston and added multi-store responsibilities before moving to the corporate office to work on strategic planning and special projects. Currently vice president of logistics and distribution, Carovillano says not having a logistics background was an advantage in the beginning because she didn't have any preconceptions of what a warehouse is or should be like, and could literally think outside the box.\nPlease describe The Container Store culture as it is manifested at the distribution center?\nIt's a culture that's based on our foundation principles. It's based on communication and understanding that you're part of something larger than just moving that box, or driving that forklift. You're part of a very special company that is helping customers.....\nA lot of it is just building trust and listening. Communication I think is sometimes misconstrued to be, 'I communicate because I put this newsletter out and I put some metrics on a board.' That's posting some information. That's not communicating. Communication is two-way. If you're going to share information, you share everything.\nThe Container Store is a private company. How much financial information do you share with employees?\nTwo or three times per year we have a staff meeting [that includes] the top two to three hundred people in the company (two or three people from every store, and 30 people from the distribution center). Kip [Tindell, CEO and president] gives a Powerpoint presentation that is exactly the same presentation that he gives to our board of directors, usually about a week after the board meeting. It includes our full P&L, what our real estate investment trends and strategies are, everything they talk about at the board meeting.\nFrom that [we create a] 30-page, 4-color briefing and give every single employee a hard copy. It has last year's revenues, our gross margin, our cost of goods, our SG&A; here's what we spent on payroll, here's what our profits were and here's how we're going to reinvest. Here's what our projections are for next year. We share all of that....\nThere's a huge risk of a competitor getting hold of that information if we're sending it out to 3,000 employees, but the benefit of having those 3,000 employees have that information so outweigh some competitor getting a snapshot of where we are.\nHow do you find and recruit \"great\" people?\nPart of it is the bravery to hold a position open even though you're dying and being crushed by production. If you hire somebody who isn't great, someday they're either going to be terminated or substandard or they're going to be that person who is okay but they're not helping us grow. We only want to bring people on who will raise the bar and help us get even better....\nWe hire passion, intelligence and enthusiasm and attitude. A lot of warehouses hire a fork truck driver and they need him to be productive tomorrow. He might not be around in three months but that's okay, [they] got two months and 30 days out of him. We hire someone with the hope that they'll be here in 10 years. If it takes time to get them foundation trained, and a week to get them trained specifically on the job that we want them to first work on, that's nothing in the course of 10 years....\nIn the distribution center we haven't hired a temporary worker or contract labor or run a [newspaper] ad for almost 5 years. We [hire] by using employees. We pay our employees $200 for every new hire that they recruit. They all carry around cards saying, \"We're looking for great people,\" or \"Now hiring neat people.\" We change it every year or so.... It's expected that every employee is handing those out all day long.\nHow does your compensation strategy support the impression that The Container Store is a different kind of company?\nIn the stores, our pay is 50 to 100 percent above the industry average because that's the front line. Our sales people are paid extremely well. In the warehouse we are not quite that aggressive, but we want to make sure first of all that we're well above industry average. Part of the secret is that we don't have a pay structure where inbound clerks make this much and fork truck drivers make this much. There's no salary cap and there's no range....\nOnce we hire someone we review them at 45 days and give them a real quick reviewand a pay increase of 50-75 cents [per hour]. Frankly, after 45 days you know real well if that's a superstar or someone who is really struggling. If you do it quickly it has a big impact on them and nips in the bud [any movement in] the wrong direction. Six months from hire we give them another more formal review and pay increase. There again, they have an opportunity for an up to 75 cents raise. Every six months we give a review. If you're really good, you can accelerate really quickly.\nHow do you define really good performance?\nOn a daily basis we talk about traditional performance metrics. How many picks per hour did you do? How many system hours did you do? How are you to standard? We have all of those in place. We talk about those daily and weekly. That's basic metabolism. That's expected.\nWhen it comes to the actual performance review, of course we bring those [metrics] in and we talk about attendance and the traditional things, but the first part is 'the 10 characteristics of a great employee of The Container Store.' We talk about those 10 areas and whether or not they are a strength or an area for improvement. There are things like attitude, passion for knowledge, and communication. Simple characteristics. Nothing that is warehouse or store or office specific. This is across the company. Our warehouse employees have the exact same review form as the store and the office uses.... It is not okay just to be the top performer. If you're the top performer, great, but you also have to help the rest of the team to perform, and you have to communicate how it is that you achieved that. You have to have a great attitude and add to the overall culture of the warehouse. You have to help out on special task forces if we put them together. You're expected to do a lot more than just be a cog in the wheel. You can't be the best worker bee. That's not part of our culture. Everyone is expected to be part of the bigger team.\nAmy Carovillano",

Holland is down for five innings and then it will be time to look at the right-handed pitcher who was signed this offseason to a Minor League contract just a few months after being released from a Florida jail.\n\"He has been really good on and off the field,\" Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said. \"He has exceeded expectations in both areas. We thought it was a good time to bring him up here to this stage.\"\nBush was the first overall pick by the Padres in 2004 as a shortstop who was later converted to pitcher. His career was knocked off course by his alcohol addiction and he spent over three years in jail when he almost killed a motorcyclist in a 2012 collision.\nThe Rangers signed him this offseason on the recommendation of Roy Silver, the Rangers' player development assistant who also assisted Josh Hamilton in his recovery.\nBush has had an outstanding camp and this is a reward.\n\"He has three power pitches and he commands all three,\" Daniels said. \"He has been very impressive.\"\nBush is not a candidate to make the Major League team. He hasn't pitched in a game since he was with Double-A Montgomery in 2011 and the Rangers bullpen is overloaded. But the Rangers are eager to see him pitch in a Cactus League game.",

I'm a Mormon.\nI am a 19 year old preparing to go serve on a mission I leave in 14 days and am serving in the Texas Houston East Mission Spanish speaking. I love running and try to run nearly every day of the week. I enjoy being out in nature and pushing my limits as an athlete. I enjoy distance running and have completed a marathon and many 5k's and 10k's.\nI was born into the church but have developed my own testimony through time and spiritual experiences. My testimony is that the church is true and that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ lived, suffered, and died for us. He did all of this that we may be forgiven of our sins as well as be resurrected in those last days. He set the perfect example and I strive every day to live up to his example. I know that Joseph Smith truly restored the gospel as well as saw both our Father in Heaven and his son Jesus Christ. Following Joseph Smith's time we currently have a living prophet and apostles who speak the word of God. The Book of Mormon is a true book and it is essential to be able to live forever with our heavenly father. I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ Amen.\nI try to show my faith every day by the attitude I keep and the way I talk and interact with others. As a prospective missionary I try to bring the gospel into every conversation I have to practice before I get out to Texas. I try to do as much service as possible as that is when I feel closest to my Heavenly Father. I go to church weekly as I love to renew the covenants I've made.",

Despite the democratic nature of online life, it\u2019s not a huge surprise that the core group of web nonusers closely aligns with socioeconomic differences. Senior citizens, survey respondents who preferred using Spanish, adults with less than a high school education, and those living in households earning below $30,000 a year are least likely use the web, according to the survey\u2019s results.\nAnd the main reason? Almost half of those surveyed said they don\u2019t find the Internet is relevant to their lives (wow, imagine that). Most have never used the web before, and don\u2019t have anyone in their household who does. About one in five said they know enough technology to start using the Internet, but only one in 10 said they were interested in using the web or email in the future.\nThe survey, of course, in no way suggested there was much of a hiccup in broad technological adoption by U.S. households. Nielsen recently noted that half of U.S. consumers who use a cell phone now own a smartphone, up from 36% ownership in February 2010.\nDoes the Pew survey make you more or less bullish about mobile Internet stocks?\nTags: Internet, Internet stocks",

        "raw_content": "Conor Daly's NASCAR adventure \"is still very exploratory\"\nConor Daly has a passion for racing and it doesn\u2019t much matter what kind it is.\nThis weekend, he will try his hand for the first time in NASCAR competition, driving one of three Roush Fenway Racing entries in Saturday\u2019s Johnsonville 180 Xfinity Series race at Road America.\nWhile most of his racing career has taken place in IndyCar and sports cars, Daly has also had an affection for NASCAR.\n\u201cI\u2019m a racing driver. I\u2019ve always followed every form of motorsport, really. I grew up in Indianapolis, and the Brickyard was always happening there. I always had a fascination with that. I have a massive collection of NASCARs at my house,\u201d said Daly, 26.\n\u201cIf you saw that you would be surprised. Big fan of Kyle Petty. Loved the Hot Wheels cars. I was always looking at those cars. I would always get the coolest diecasts. All the Cartoon Network cars, I had all of those, with all the cartoons. So I just always had a passion for that.\u201d\nIn May 2012, Daly performed a straight line aero test for Formula One\u2019s Force India at Cotswold Airport in Gloucestershire, England and also competed in GP3 with Carlin Motorsport in 2012 and 2013.\nMore NASCAR starts in the future?\nHis career, which at one point appeared destined for Europe, instead sent him back to America.\n\u201cI\u2019ve always been very open-minded, and even when I came back to America to do IndyCar stuff, to do sports car stuff, whatever I had to do, there\u2019s always this idea of, how do I get into NASCAR? How does that happen?\u201d he said.\n\u201cAnd here we are after talking about it for six months, like, \u2018Is this something you\u2019d do?\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018Yeah, absolutely, why not?\u2019\u201d\nDaly admits it would be \u201cawesome\u201d to do more NASCAR events beyond this weekend \u2013 and even next season \u2013 but getting comfortable in a new environment is his first priority.\n\u201cYou\u2019ve got to always be looking ahead. I\u2019ve done way more IndyCar races than I thought I\u2019d be doing this year, which is great, which has been a lot of fun. And my heart is obviously still there,\u201d he said.\n\u201cBut I haven\u2019t been in this car yet, so my heart could easily change places. But I obviously know it\u2019s a very tough jump to make. It\u2019s still very exploratory at this point.\u201d\nCould NASCAR oval tracks be next for Katherine Legge?\nJustin Marks leads James Davison in Road America practice",

        "raw_content": "URG students place in international competition\nKasey Crow (left) and Melissa Dickerson have ranked in the top 100 of the Business Strategy Game their first three weeks of competing. The game is a requirement for seniors in the School of Business class taught by Roger Watson (center).\nRIO GRANDE \u2014 Senior business majors Kasey Crow and Melissa Dickerson ranked in the top 100 performers in the first week of the international Business Strategy Game \u2014 and they are still going strong.\nThe game requires students to manage a mock manufacturing company by making decisions using skills they have learned in their classes. Each of the 10 weeks of competition represents one year of business. Business professor Roger Watson said he is excited his students are working hard on the project.\n\u201cThis is the capstone course in the School of Business, which means it requires business seniors to synthesize all the information they\u2019ve learned and look at the bigger picture, the strategic plans that guide companies,\u201d Watson said. \u201cThe competition is fierce. Ranking in the top 100 among business students worldwide helps the students see the quality of the business education they receive at the University of Rio Grande.\u201d\nCrow and Dickerson ranked 61st overall the first week, scoring a 107, only three points short of the highest possible score. For week two, the team ranked 28th overall scoring 108 and ranked 72nd for week three, scoring 107.5. Watson, who teaches the capstone course, said he is proud of his students for being able to keep up globally.\n\u201cThe game is cumulative, so it gets harder to maintain and bring up your scores as you continue,\u201d Watson said. \u201cThe students have to make over 100 decisions relative to running a business each week.\u201d\nCrow, of Chillicothe, Ohio, said she is excited to see how she ranks on a global scale and is glad she ranked in the top 100 three weeks in a row.\n\u201cIt\u2019s pretty cool because it lets us see where we stand compared to other schools,\u201d Crow said.\nDickerson, of Coolville, Ohio, said she is grateful what she has learned at Rio Grande helped her develop the skills to compete.\n\u201cIt\u2019s awesome to see we can match top schools in the country or do even better. It takes all of our classes and turns it into one big project,\u201d Dickerson said.\nStudents from the class have ranked in the top 100 of the competition for 18 of the past 19 semesters. Watson said he takes the semester without a ranking as praise for the class as a whole.\n\u201cTo place 18 out of 19 times really shows the caliber of the students and their education here at Rio. I think it\u2019s a real feather in the cap,\u201d Watson said. \u201cWe had one semester where every group in the class placed at least once. Even the semester we didn\u2019t place, I took it as a compliment because the students were doing so well in the classroom. No one could get ahead of the others because they were all fantastic.\u201d\nThe competition is run by publishing company McGraw-Hill. According to the company\u2019s website, 54,082 students at 611 universities in 54 countries have participated in the competition in the last year.\nhttp://aimmedianetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/42/2015/10/web1_Crow-Watson-and-Dickerson1.jpgKasey Crow (left) and Melissa Dickerson have ranked in the top 100 of the Business Strategy Game their first three weeks of competing.

        "raw_content": "OLED, also known as Organic Emiting Diode, is a semiconductor light source, similar to a light-emitting diode (LED). In contrast with a LED, which is an inorganic bright light source, an OLED uses a series of thin, light emitting films. As a result, OLEDs produce brighter light and while using less energy.\nOLEDs are used to create digital displays in electrical devices such as television screens, computer monitors, laptops and portable-game-consoles, among others.\nCytocompatibility studies of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been carried out on cell cultures for the first time at the Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology FEP to test how well OLEDs are tolerated by cells. The results offer promising prospects for the use of OLEDs in the medical field, such as in light therapy. The findings will be published in a white paper entitled \u201cPreliminary cytocompatibility studies for encapsulated OLEDs\u201d and likewise be presented at the 4th Industry Partners Day of the Fraunhofer FEP in Dresden on September 28, 2016.\nOLED microdisplays are increasingly establishing themselves in wearables and data glasses. In order to meet the requirements for higher efficiency, higher contrast, and higher resolutions in these applications, Fraunhofer FEP scientists have developed a new micropatterning approach for OLEDs on silicon substrates. This might eliminate the use of color filters and shadow masks in the future and allow full-color displays to be developed by means of a new process.\nFraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology, a provider of research and development services in the field of organic electronics, presents first wearable OLED bracelet at Wearable Europe 2018, from April 11th to 12th in Berlin, Germany at booth no. P12 together with VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and Holst Centre from Netherlands.\nThe Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology FEP will be presenting flexible organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) at AIMCAL 2016 in Dresden, Germany, from May 30th to June 2nd, 2016. These OLEDs have been fabricated on ultra-thin glass and encapsulated with a ultra-thin glass foil in the same process.\nLarge, but nevertheless micro \u2013 high resolution OLED microdisplay for virtual reality applications\nFraunhofer FEP will present a new generation of OLED microdisplays at the SID-Mid-Europe Chapter Spring Meeting, running from 13th to 14th of March 2017 in Dresden. The conference will focus on \u201cWearable and Projection Displays\u201d. A number of top-level and interesting speakers will give talks on markets, technologies, systems and applications in the fields of micro and small area display technologies.\nWith applications ranging from gaming to professional uses such for assembly, maintenance information supply, and pilot training in flight simulators, virtual reality glasses and their supporting systems are becoming more and more established, whilst at the same time also initiating and facilitating developments in new fields. A crucial aspect of virtual reality presentations is the display technology. Here, OLED microdisplays are receiving growing attention due to their technological advantages.\nThe bidirectional OLED microdisplays developed at Fraunhofer FEP were successfully integrated for the first time into a demonstrator of data glasses for representing augmented and virtual realties (AR and VR) as well as 2D and 3D content. The new data glasses will be debuted during awe europe in the Munich Ordercenter (MOC Veranstaltungscenter M\u00fcnchen) at the Fraunhofer FEP booth (No. 420) October 19th and 20th, 2017.\nOrganic light-emitting diodes (OLED) are mainly known from televisions and smartphone displays. They can be used as lighting objects in car tail lights or lights. The Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology FEP as a partner for customer-specific OLED development and production is now presenting OLED elements that can be integrated into textiles at the Electronics System Integration Technology Conference ESTC 2018 from September 18 - 21, 2018 in Dresden at booth no. 29.\nThe Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology FEP has been developing various applications for OLED microdisplays based on organic semiconductors. By integrating the capabilities of an image sensor directly into the microdisplay, eye movements can be recorded by the smart glasses and utilized for guidance and control functions, as one example. The new design will be debuted at Augmented World Expo Europe (AWE) in Berlin at Booth B25, October 18th\u2009\u2013\u200919th.",

        "raw_content": "The subpolar gyre regulates silicate concentrations in the North Atlantic\nH. H\u00e1t\u00fan1,\nK. Azetsu-Scott3,\nR. Somavilla4,\nF. Rey5,\nC. Johnson ORCID: orcid.org/0000-0002-8213-25546,\nM. Mathis7,\nU. Mikolajewicz7,\nP. Coupel8,\nJ.-\u00c9. Tremblay8,\nS. Hartman9,\nS. V. Pacariz1,10,\nI. Salter1,11 &\nJ. \u00d3lafsson2\nThe North Atlantic is characterized by diatom-dominated spring blooms that results in significant transfer of carbon to higher trophic levels and the deep ocean. These blooms are terminated by limiting silicate concentrations in summer. Numerous regional studies have demonstrated phytoplankton community shifts to lightly-silicified diatoms and non-silicifying plankton at the onset of silicate limitation. However, to understand basin-scale patterns in ecosystem and climate dynamics, nutrient inventories must be examined over sufficient temporal and spatial scales. Here we show, from a new comprehensive compilation of data from the subpolar Atlantic Ocean, clear evidence of a marked pre-bloom silicate decline of 1.5\u20132\u2009\u00b5M throughout the winter mixed layer during the last 25 years. This silicate decrease is primarily attributed to natural multi-decadal variability through decreased winter convection depths since the mid-1990s, a weakening and retraction of the subpolar gyre and an associated increased influence of nutrient-poor water of subtropical origin. Reduced Arctic silicate import and the projected hemispheric-scale climate change-induced weakening of vertical mixing may have acted to amplify the recent decline. These marked fluctuations in pre-bloom silicate inventories will likely have important consequences for the spatial and temporal extent of diatom blooms, thus impacting ecosystem productivity and ocean-atmosphere climate dynamics.\nThe subpolar North Atlantic is characterized by deep winter convection1, and a strong diatom dominated spring bloom2. Diatoms are fast-growing algae that in addition to phosphate and nitrate require silicic acid, hereafter referred to as silicate, to sustain their growth3. In the subpolar North Atlantic, silicate is the main limiting nutrient for diatom growth4 although occasionally outweighed by seasonal iron limitation5. Diatoms are an important food source for secondary producers, and in particular for calanoid copepods such as Calanus finmarchicus 6, which itself is a key prey item linking microbial components to higher trophic levels in subpolar ecosystems7.\nAlong its eastern boundary, the subpolar North Atlantic receives relatively warm and saline water from the subtropical gyre characterized by silicate concentrations of less than 3\u2009\u00b5M, averaged over the upper 200 meters (Fig. 1). The productivity of the subpolar ocean is therefore crucially dependent on both deep winter convection and silicate import from the Arctic. Arctic water, which is rich in silicate8, enters the Atlantic through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago and in smaller volumes through the Fram Strait, and it is carried equatorward by the Labrador Current9. Silicate also accumulates in the deep Overflow Waters that pass through the Labrador Sea and, together with Labrador Sea Water, continue southwards as the Deep Western Boundary Current1. The counterclockwise rotating subpolar gyre (SPG) prevents these silicate-rich waters from draining southwards out of the subpolar region. A fraction of the Labrador Sea Water and a part of Labrador Current water, here collectively referred to as Sub Arctic Water (SAW), are flowing eastwards along the northern edge of the North Atlantic Current10 and admixed with the nutrient poor subtropical waters west of the British Isles11 (Fig. 1). Western waters from the Gulf Stream and eastern waters from the Bay of Biscay region are hereafter jointly discussed as Sub Tropical Water (STW). The confluence of SAW and STW produces silicate enriched Atlantic Water (AtW), which flows poleward through the Nordic Seas and northwestward towards Greenland (Fig. 1), thus retaining a portion of the silicate within the subpolar domain.\nSchematic of the emphasized features in the subpolar Atlantic, with the climatological average upper ocean (0\u2013200\u2009m) silicate concentrations during April obtained from the World Ocean Atlas20 contoured with colors. Oceanographic abbreviations: Subpolar gyre (SPG), SubArctic Water (SAW), SubTropical Water (STW), Atlantic Water (AtW) and the North Atlantic Current (NAC). The silicate observations shown in Fig. 2a are sampled in the central Labrador Sea (L), the northern Irminger Sea (Ir), and in the Nordic Seas \u2013 the Svin\u00f8y Section (S), Ocean Weather Ship M (M) and the Gims\u00f8y Section (G) (colored letters). Supporting time series (Supplementary Information 1, black letters) are obtained from the Porcupine Abyssal Plain (P) and the southern Bay of Biscay (B) (Fig. 3), the Labrador Current (LC) (Fig. 5), the Iceland Basin (Ic) and the Faroe Shelf (F). The figure was produced using the software Matlab R2013b, (https://www.mathworks.com).\nThe size and circulation strength of the SPG is highly variable11 and depends on wintertime atmospheric forcing, primarily air-sea heat exchange and wind stress curl12. This variability is represented by the unitless gyre index calculated from the sea surface height field11,12 (see Methods) which, in turn, represents surface currents, the buoyancy content and the position of major fronts in the North Atlantic13. Weak atmospheric forcing is associated with shallow winter mixing (depths), a westward retraction of the SPG and a weak and southward shifted North Atlantic Current with decreased eastward transport of SAW and a low gyre index. This physical regime opens a \u2018window\u2019 between the SPG and the European Continental slope increasing the admixture of nutrient poor STW to the poleward AtW flow. The gyre index therefore explains the relative SAW and STW mixture to the AtW11.\nIn the present study a new 25-year (1990\u20132015) compilation of pre-bloom silicate observations is analyzed, gathered from several independent hydrographic sections crossing the Atlantic Inflow branches in the Nordic Seas, the northern Irminger Sea and the central Labrador Sea (Fig. 1). Our records represent the vertically homogenous winter mixed layer, and thus a water column of typically more than a kilometre in the west, and several hundred meters along the eastern side. Considering that the diatom-dominated spring bloom in the North Atlantic becomes silicate limited every year, these time-series of pre-bloom silicate concentrations represent long-term trends in the capacity for diatom related primary production throughout a huge volume in the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean. The data compilation includes series from three long-term observation sites along the Norwegian slope that have been updated from previous work14, and incorporates previously unpublished series from the Labrador and Irminger Sea (Methods and Supplementary Information 1). These primary datasets, which have been consistently sampled during the winter/early spring months in order to reflect pre-bloom concentrations in the winter mixed layer (Methods), are illustrated with coloured squares in Fig. 1. We also present supporting silicate time series from the Labrador Shelf, the Iceland Basin, the Faroe Shelf, the Porcupine Abyssal Plain and the Bay of Biscay (Methods and Supplementary Information 1) - shown with black circles in Fig. 1.\nThe observations are compared with output from a global model system consisting of the ocean general circulation model MPIOM (Max-Planck-Institute Ocean Model)15 and the marine biogeochemistry model HAMOCC (Hamburg Ocean Carbon Cycle Model)16, driven with ERA4016 and ERA-Interim17 reanalysis data. More details are provided in Methods and Supplementary Information 1. Previous studies have demonstrated that simulated fields from MPIOM compare favourably with observations in the Labrador and Irminger Seas13.\nWe observe a consistent decline of pre-bloom silicate concentrations throughout the subpolar North Atlantic of 1.5\u20132\u2009\u00b5M over the 25-year observation period (Fig. 2a). The rate of decline is similar in the central Labrador Sea, the northern Irminger Sea and in the Nordic Seas, all occupying the range 0.55\u20130.66\u2009\u00b5M per decade (Table 1 and Fig. 2a). Note that the supporting datasets from the Iceland Basin and Faroe Shelf exhibit comparable rates of decline over the same period (Table 1). These latter datasets exhibit more variability, likely due to variable sampling timing (Dec-Feb for the Faroe Shelf and differing summer months for the Iceland Basin, see Table S2) and locally complex coastal dynamics, and have thus merely been used to support the primary analysis. The consistency of the silicate decline over the large spatial domain from which the observations originate is remarkable and suggests that basin-scale physical mechanisms are responsible.\nTemporal evolution of key parameters. (a) Colored lines show pre-bloom upper ocean silicate concentrations across the subpolar Atlantic; L, Ir, S, M and G in Fig. 1. The samples are made in the pre-bloom homogeneous winter mixed layer, and thus represent several hundred meters in the Nordic Seas and typically more than a kilometre in the Labrador Sea (see Methods). The dashed black line shows the unitless gyre index, associated with the leading North Atlantic sea-surface height mode, as obtained from altimetry observations41 (Methods). (b) Similar to (a), but showing the silicate concentrations in the northern Irminger Sea (Ir in Fig. 1) for a longer time period. The observations are in green, simulations (0\u2013200\u2009m, March) in blue and the gyre index in dashed gray.\nTable 1 Silicate trend analysis over the period 1990\u20132015. The abbreviated regions are shown in Fig. 1, and the statistics are described in Methods.\nIn the following section we explore three non-exclusive physical mechanisms that could explain the observed silicate decline in the subpolar North Atlantic: (i) decreased concentrations in the already silicate-poor STW, (ii) shallower winter convection and a weakening SPG and (iii) decreased silicate influx from the Arctic.\nTo investigate Mechanism (i), we analysed previously unpublished observations from the eastern region occupied by STW (southern Bay of Biscay and the Porcupine Abyssal Plain, Fig. 1) and found no evidence of a persistent silicate decline (Fig. 3). In the Sargasso Sea, a weak near-surface (0\u2013150\u2009m) silicate decline was observed during the late 1990s, but this was followed by a subsequent increase18. Taken together, these data indicate that the silicate content in the STW has remained relatively constant over the observation period, ruling out this mechanism as an explanation for the observed decline in the subpolar region.\nSilicate concentrations in the STW. Red dots show silicate concentration time-series from 150\u2009m in the southern Bay of Biscay (B in Fig. 1), and the red line shows the 12 months low-pass filtered value. The blue line is the near-surface winter silicate concentrations from the region around the Porcupine Abyssal Plain (PAP) mooring (P in Fig. 1, March averages with standard errors).\nTo address the role of the SPG (Mechanism ii), we first note that a similar silicate decline is not observed in the Rockall Trough19, but the negative trend becomes increasingly identifiable when moving northwestward into the SAW within the SPG, approaching 1\u2009\u00b5M per decade close to Iceland (Extended Ellett Line, Figs 4b and S1). Silicate concentrations in the Irminger Sea and Labrador Sea (Fig. 1) are highly correlated with the gyre index (Fig. 2a, Table 2) and thus mirror the major temperature and salinity increase since the early 1990s11, indeed suggesting a subpolar origin for the observed silicate decline.\nAnalysis of the simulated (HAMOCC) near-surface (0\u2013150\u2009m) silicate during March. The map shows the correlation between the time series in the northern Irminger Sea (Ir, green box) and the times series at each individual model grid cell (1958\u20132011). The white dotted line shows the Extended Ellett Line (EEL) hydrographic section, and the black lines outline the approximate boundary of the subpolar gyre (SPG) during a weak (full) and strong (dashed) state. The figure was produced using the software Matlab R2013b, (https://www.mathworks.com).\nTable 2 Silicate correlated against the gyre index (1993\u20132013). To investigate if the gyre index explains inter-annual variability, the series have also been de-trended by subtracting a linear trend line, prior to the correlation analysis. The abbreviated regions are shown in Fig. 1, and the statistics are described in Methods.\nThe MPIOM/HAMOCC model system is now utilized to examine the potential link between the SPG and the silicate variability in the subpolar Atlantic at a resolution that cannot be achieved from the observations alone. Climatological upper-ocean April silicate concentrations produced by the model system are in reasonable agreement with the World Ocean Atlas20 (Fig. S2). The model also captures the silicate decline since the early 1990s, although primarily along the westward retracting subarctic fronts, both along the periphery of the SPG and in the Nordic Seas (Fig. S3, Supplementary Information 2). This is likely because SAW is replaced by silicate poorer AtW, which renders pronounced changes along the frontal zones.\nIt has previously been shown that the shifting fronts associated with the SPG dynamics have an especially strong imprint on the hydrography and the ecosystem in the biologically productive Northern Irminger Sea11,13,21. HAMOCC adequately reflects the observed pre-bloom silicate variability in this key region, albeit with some discrepancy in the late 1980s (Fig. 2b, r\u2009=\u20090.80, P\u2009<\u20091e-6, see Methods for statistics). The simulated trend at site \u2018Ir\u2019 is comparable to the observations, and this trend is the focus of the present study.\nThe model furthermore shows realistic temporal variability in the central SPG (Fig. S4), although the location of the deep convection site is located somewhat southeast from the real convection region (Fig. S3), which is transected by WOCE line ARW722.\nWith the limitations associated with specific model processes in mind, the upstream origin and the downstream imprint of the observed and simulated signal at site \u2018Ir\u2019 is further examined. We correlate the model-simulated pre-bloom near-surface silicate in the grid point nearest \u2018Ir\u2019 (averaged vertically over 0 to 150\u2009m and temporally over March) with the similarly processed time series in all other model grid cells (Fig. 4). The silicate variability in the Irminger Sea does not correlate with areas south of the SPG, providing further evidence that the silicate trend does not originate in the subtropical Atlantic. However, strong correlations exist with the AtW mixing region of SAW and STW, as well as along the AtW flow pathways both towards the Arctic and cyclonically around the SPG and into the Labrador Sea. These analyses suggest that the mechanistic processes causing reductions in silicate concentration primarily operate in the AtW mixing region, which includes the Rockall-Hatton Plateau, the Iceland Basin and the Reykjanes Ridge (Fig. 4).\nIn the AtW mixing areas, the SAW is found at 500\u2013800\u2009m depths23, thus convective vertical mixing is required to entrain it into the upper waters. Strong positive correlations between the simulated upper layer silicate and winter mixed layer depths (both parameters averaged over December-February, Fig. S5) highlight that, the silicate variability in the subpolar North Atlantic is partly driven by convection and thus by air-sea heat exchanges. Atmospheric forcing primarily acts locally by cooling near-surface waters, which become dense and subsequently sink. In addition, there is a preconditioning effect from deep convection in the Labrador Sea, which expands the SPG into the Irminger Sea and Iceland Basin and, in turn, alters the water column density structure modulating convective processes. The post-1995 decline of the SPG size and circulation strength11 is intrinsically coupled with the decreasing winter convection depths (from nearly 2.5\u2009km in 1994 to 600\u2013800\u2009m around 2010 in the Labrador Sea)12, and thus provides a mechanism whereby reduced vertical nutrient fluxes lead to upper ocean silicate decline.\nThe limited grid resolution of the model likely leads to an underestimated eddy driven influx of AtW from the boundaries of the Labrador Sea into the center of the Labrador Basin24 (Fig. 4). However, the observations demonstrate that the Labrador Sea silicate record is strongly correlated with that from the northern Irminger Sea (Fig. 2a, r\u2009=\u20090.86, P\u2009<\u20091e-6). It thus seems reasonable to conclude that the silicate variability that originates south of Iceland is advected into the Labrador Sea similarly to hydrographic anomalies in the region11. Further convection in this region enriches the AtW with silicate resulting in concentrations that are approximately 2\u2009\u00b5M above the Irminger Sea values (Fig. 2a).\nThe Labrador Sea record can be considered to represent silicate variability in the SAW, the main body of the SPG itself. It is therefore likely that the declining silicate concentrations in the eastward flowing SAW source water will subsequently lower the silicate in the poleward flowing AtW \u2013 produced from the mixture of SAW and STW11. Additionally, since a weakening and contracting gyre acts to increase the proportion of silicate-poor STW to the mixed AtW11,25 this mechanism acts synergistically with weaker convective processes to contribute to the observed AtW silicate decline.\nBased on the presented observations and the analysis of model simulation, we suggest that SPG dynamics and winter convection (Mechanism ii) offer a mechanistic framework to explain declining silicate concentrations through (a) variable vertical fluxes of silicate rich deep-water, (b) SPG regulation of SAW source water concentrations and (c) the relative SAW/STW contribution to the mixed AtW west of the British Isles (Fig. 1).\nFinally, we explore whether any variability in inputs from the Arctic could contribute towards the observed silicate decline in the subpolar North Atlantic (Mechanism iii). Silicate concentrations on the Labrador Shelf (Methods and Supplementary Information 1), which include water that has entered the region through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago9, are also declining and at twice the rate observed in the central Labrador Sea (Fig. 5). Indication of declines in silicate concentrations are also observed further North at the main entry points of Silicate-Rich Arctic Water (SRAW)11 into Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea (Fig. S6). Concurrently with the decline of the SPG during the mid-1990s, the Arctic circulation shifted to a persistently anticyclonic regime reflected in a positive phase of the Arctic Ocean Oscillation26. This results in increased retention of SRAW in the Beaufort Gyre and the Canada Basin27 of 8,000\u201312,000 km3 since the mid-1990s28,29. The evolution of SPG dynamics and the Arctic Ocean Oscillation could thus further contribute to the observed silicate decline.\nTemporal evolution of the upper-ocean silicate concentrations across the Labrador Shelf which has entered through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (LC in Fig. 1, blue) and the central Labrador Sea (L in Fig. 1, red). The plot includes data from the 50\u2013150\u2009m layer for the Labrador Shelf and 150\u2013300\u2009m for the central Labrador Sea (averages with standard errors).\nIn order to estimate the magnitude of Arctic influence, an approximate mass balance is presented in Supplementary Information 2 (Fig. S7). Since the silicate concentrations in the SRAW and the mean concentrations of the Arctic are 22 \u00b5M8 and 11\u2009\u00b5M, respectively, it is estimated that about 8.8\u201314.4 \u00b71016 \u00b5mol must have accumulated in the Beaufort Gyre and Canada Basin since the mid-1990s. Between 85% and 100% of the silicate flux from the Arctic reaches the North Atlantic, mainly in the density range \u03c3\u03b8\u2009=\u200927.0\u201327.59, and this encompasses a volume of about 4 \u00b71014 m3. The silicate decrease in the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean, caused by the retention of silicate in the Arctic Ocean since the mid-1990s is therefore 0.2\u20130.3\u2009\u00b5M, which is <15% of the observed silicate decline of 1.5\u20132\u2009\u00b5M (Fig. 2). We conclude that variability in silicate input from the Arctic leaves a weak imprint on the dominant SPG mechanism described above, although further silicate transport observations would be required to accurately partition the quantitative contribution.\nSilicate decline over such a large area in the North Atlantic is likely to have a significant impact on ecosystem structure and climate dynamics. Theoretically, pre-bloom silicate concentrations exert a first order control on the maximum potential of diatom production during the spring bloom. There is some evidence from the Continuous Plankton Recorder surveys30 conducted during 1991\u20132009 that the relative contribution of diatoms to total phytoplankton abundance is decreasing in the North Atlantic31 in line with the observed silicate decline presented here. This would clearly affect standing stocks of calenoid copepods linking primary productivity to higher trophic levels, including commercially important fish and seabird populations. Shifts in phytoplankton community composition to lightly silicified and non-silicified phytoplankton may occur earlier in the growth season, potentially influencing copepod growth and egg production as well as the magnitude and stoichiometry of the biological carbon pump32.\nSilicates sinking below the depth of winter convection in the subpolar North Atlantic will either be deposited on the seafloor or drain equator-ward in the North Atlantic Deep Water \u2013 the lower limb of the Thermohaline Circulation system33. It therefore appears unlikely that changes in silicate inventories in the subpolar North Atlantic will significantly impact diatom productivity in other areas of the ocean.\nIt remains challenging to hindcast or forecast trends in silicate inventories beyond the 25 year record presented here. The observed silicate decline is primarily associated with the post-1995 weakening of the SPG11, and is therefore part of multi-decadal variability that observational records are too short to portray. The model simulations indicate that the silicate concentrations during the early 1960s, when winter convection and the SPG circulation were also weak11 would have been almost as low as they are today (Fig. 2b). The intensification in deep convection during the winters 2012\u2013201634 might have elevated the concentrations somewhat again. Nevertheless, over the next century, climate models predict global declines in nutrients and thus in primary production, due to shallower winter mixing, with a particularly strong imprint on the subpolar North Atlantic35. Our data shows that such climate scenarios may act in synergy with multi-decadal oscillations to regulate upper ocean nutrient inventories with important impacts on ecosystem productivity.\nPrimary datasets\nFor the Nordic Seas observation sites (S, M and G, Fig. 1), we have followed the methods in ref.14. The average silicate values for the upper water column every March were calculated using all observations either from 0\u2013200\u2009m or in the upper mixed layer, and only stations which sampled the Atlantic Water were included. In the central Labrador Sea (L in Fig. 1), the silicate records from all stations along the ARW7 line, except those on the shelves, were used. The section is occupied during May, and to avoid influence from the near-surface biology, only data from 150\u2013500\u2009m were included to produce Fig. 2a. The Irminger Sea (Ir in Fig. 1) silicate concentrations are the mean of 0\u201350\u2009m, February-March values from a fixed station on the Faxafl\u00f3i section, in the core of the Irminger Current.\nFor the Labrador Shelf (LC in Fig. 1), the silicate concentrations have been averaged over the 50\u2013150\u2009m depth layer (Fig. 5). The Iceland Basin (Ic in Fig. 1) time-series was calculated by averaging all silicate samples between 150\u2009m and 600\u2009m from four stations along the 20\u00b0W portion of the Extended Ellett Line (EEL). Data from the Faroe Shelf (F in Fig. 1), represent winter (DJF) averages of all samples from a coastal station. The Porcupine Abyssal Plain (PAP, P in Fig. 1) dataset was sub-sampled from a ship of opportunity over a region close to the PAP site. For the southern Bay of Biscay (B in Fig. 1), silicate concentrations at the northern stations of the Santander standard section at 150\u2009m depth are shown in Fig. 3. The Santander standard section has been sampled monthly since 1991.\nOcean model\nThe model system applied in this study consists of the ocean general circulation model MPIOM (Max-Planck-Institute Ocean Model) and the marine biogeochemistry model HAMOCC (Hamburg Ocean Carbon Cycle Model). MPIOM is the ocean-sea ice component of the global earth system model MPI-ESM36 of the Max-Planck-Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg. For the presented simulation, the horizontal resolution in the northern North Atlantic ranges from around 13\u2009km in the east and west to about 25\u2009km over the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. In the vertical, the water column is resolved by 30 levels with 8 levels in the upper 100\u2009m. Biogeochemical processes in the ocean are simulated by HAMOCC37, which is online coupled with MPIOM. Marine biology dynamics are represented by nutrients, phytoplankton, zooplankton, detritus, and dissolved organic matter38. The model simulation considered in this study covers the period 1958\u20132012. ERA40 reanalysis data16 are used as meteorological forcing at the sea surface for the period 1958\u20132000, continued by ERA-Interim data for the remaining period 2001\u20132012.\nThe gyre index\nThe dynamics of the subpolar gyre has often been proxied by a so-called gyre index. This index is the principal component (no physical unit) obtained from an Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF)39 analysis of the sea surface height field over the entire North Atlantic Ocean, obtained from satellite altimetry13,21,40 or from general circulation models11,13. We here utilize the gyre index from ref.40, which is based on a pre-2014 version of the Ssalto/DUACS altimetry products provided by the Copernicus Marine and Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) (http://www.marine.copernicus.eu). An updated gyre index based on the altimetry products released in April 2014 \u2013 the DUACS 2014 \u2013 is available41. Changes in the satellite data processing in 2014 have, however, resulted in a slight change in the updated gyre index21.\nThe correlation coefficients are calculated by a standard Matlab routine which does not account for autocorrelation. The P-values are computed by transforming the correlation to create a t-statistic having n-2 degrees of freedom.

        "raw_content": "They Want The World To Know\u2026 A&E Prepares \u201cComing Out\u201d\nThe folks at A&E have made reality shows that deal tastefully with highly personal subjects such as addiction, hoarding and obsessive compulsive disorder. And they\u2019re gonna need all the good taste they muster for their next project: a docudrama series featuring people coming out of the closet. Nikki Finke at Deadline reports:\nI hear Hollywood publicist Howard Bragman who's known as the \u201cComing Out Guru\u201d is developing with JUMA Entertainment an A&E project with the working title, natch, Coming Out. The concept will feature multiple public figures coming out of the closet. Casting is still in process. Bragman has been working with celebrities coming out of the closet for two decades and recently orchestrated exposure for Meredith Baxter and country singer Chely Wright.\nThe biggest stumbling block of this program is that A&E plans to focus on so-called \u201cpublic figures.\u201d That might make it more compelling on the surface, but I think the viewing audience is largely uninterested in celebs coming out now. If anything, it will smack of a publicity grab. Whereas if they featured real people who were coming out (and weren\u2019t doing so as career move), it would be far more affecting.\nThere\u2019s precedent for people coming out on television. MTV has done two True Life episodes on the subject, both of which were extremely well done and provided a positive message. There\u2019s a way to treat this subject without being crass or exploitative. The fact that this show is on A&E and not VH1 is certainly a help. But if the channel is serious about making a gripping show about a struggle millions of closeted gay Americans have to deal with on a daily basis, they\u2019d best avoid the Meredith Baxters of the world.",

        "title": "Legal rights for Scottish deaf children | Adjustments for early years",
        "raw_content": "Separately, under the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 local authorities must also provide a range and level of services appropriate to disabled children\u2019s needs.\nThe Education (Additional Support for Learning) (Scotland) Act 2004 aims to make sure that children with additional support needs get the help that they need.\nA child is said to have additional support needs (ASN) if they need extra support in order to benefit from education. The need for extra support can be temporary or ongoing. Deafness is recognised as an example of an ASN.\nIf the child is aged under three and has a disability such as deafness, the local authority must assess children who have additional support needs, or may have additional support needs as a result of a disability. If an authority identifies that support is required, they have a duty to provide it. This may involve developing an action plan and provision of education support within childcare.\nWhere the child is aged three or four, the local authority and the nursery/pre-school are expected to work together to ensure that provision is \u201cadequate and efficient\u201d to meet any ASN. This involves working with external specialists, such as Teachers of the Deaf.\nIf you feel that your child has needs that go beyond what the nursery/pre-school can reasonably provide or are likely to be able to provide, you have the right to ask the local authority to carry out an assessment for a coordinated support plan (CSP). This is a legal document which sets out the support that the local authority must provide.\nYou have the right to appeal if the local authority refuses to carry out an assessment or to appeal over the contents of a CSP.\nGo to Getting additional support: Scotland for more information.\nNurseries, pre-schools and registered childminders should follow the Curriculum for Excellence, which provides a framework for how children\u2019s early learning should develop and has a focus on learning through play and active, experiential learning.\nThe childcare should work with you to prepare a joint record of your child\u2019s progress.\nThe Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) is the regulatory body which covers early learning and childcare. Any practitioner working with children not yet at primary school must be registered with the SSSC. Any qualified teachers teaching in early learning settings must be registered with the General Teaching Council of Scotland. In terms of child\u2013staff ratios:\nIf you\u2019re using a nursery, preschool, playgroup or children\u2019s centre and your child is:\naged two, it should be one to five\naged three, it should be one to eight or ten (depending on the type of childcare).\nIf you\u2019re using a childminder, they can care for up to six children (under the age of twelve). Of these six children, only three are not yet attending primary school and no more than one is under the age of one.\nMore information on the child\u2013staff ratios can be found on the gov.scot website.\nNurseries, pre-schools and childminders are inspected by the Care Inspectorate who check that they are following the National Care Standards for Early Education and Childcare. These set out 14 standards which include requirements around making sure your child feels welcomed and valued, that their individual needs (including any arising from a disability) are met and that the childcare provides a safe environment.\nAll childminders providing childcare for more than two hours a day for payment must register with the Care Inspectorate. Nannies do not need to register with the Care Inspectorate but agencies that introduce families to nannies do.\nYou can read the inspection report for a childcare provider on the Care Inspectorate website.\nEducation Scotland also inspects nurseries and pre-schools. These inspections focus on how well the childcare is helping children to learn and achieve, and check on the quality of education being provided. You can read the inspection report for a nursery or pre-school on the Education Scotland website. Education Scotland don\u2019t currently inspect specialist education services for deaf children.\nYou may be entitled to help with the costs of childcare.\nAll three to four-year-olds are entitled to 600 hours of free childcare a year (or around 16 hours of free childcare a week during school term).\nIf your child is two and you are receiving certain benefits (such as income support or Job Seeker\u2019s Allowance), they will also be entitled to 600 hours of free childcare a year.\nYou need to apply to the local authority for a free childcare place. You can either do this by contacting the local authority directly or via the Family Information Service for your area.\nFree childcare is available only from local authority or private nurseries who participate in the Private Childcare Partnership (PCP) scheme or pre-schools. More information on this should be available from your local Childcare/Family Information Service. Local authorities are expected to be flexible in how the childcare is provided in order to meet your needs.\nYou should also be aware that many specialist education services don\u2019t provide support to deaf children who aren\u2019t in a local authority nursery, a private PCP nursery or pre-school.\nThe Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 legislates for the Scottish Government Getting It Right For Every Child approach to delivering children\u2019s services. Under the Act, local authorities must make sure there is enough childcare in the area for three and four-year-olds and some two-year-olds. Local authorities must also consult with representatives of parents of children under five at least every two years on their plans for delivering childcare in the area. They must then publish a plan, which should be available on the local authority website. If it isn\u2019t, you can ask the local authority to send you a copy.\nIf this doesn\u2019t address your concern or your concern is urgent, you can contact the Care Inspectorate directly.\nIf your complaint is about the local authority, the final stage for any complaints is the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman. You can normally only take a complaint to the Ombudsman once you have exhausted the complaints process for the local authority.\nYou can also seek advice from your local Childcare/Family Information Service or contact our Freephone Helpline.",

        "title": "Student Loan Terms to Know",
        "raw_content": "Talking about student loans and financial aid can feel complicated. Below are definitions for some common words and phrases that you might encounter.\nThe act of interest or fees (if applicable) accumulating on your principle balance. NOTE: The U.S. Department of Education does not assess late or returned payment fees.\nAdjusted Gross Income | AGI\nThe AGI can be found on a federal income tax return form (1040, 1040A, 1040EZ). This information is required when applying for programs such as IBR or ICR\u2014it is your taxable income, which is calculated as your gross income from taxable sources minus deductions.\nThe maximum total outstanding loan debt you are allowed when you graduate or finish school.\nAnnual Percentage Rate | APR\nThe total annual interest cost of a loan.\nAn official document issued by your school's financial aid office listing all the financial aid awarded to you. The award letter details cost of attendance and terms and conditions for the financial aid.\nThe individual who applies for, receives, and is responsible for paying back a loan.\nFinancial aid programs, like Perkins Loans and Federal Work-Study, administered by the college or university. The federal government provides each university with a fixed annual allocation that's awarded by the financial aid administrator to students based on financial need.\nInterest adds up (accrues) based on the principal balance of your loans. When this interest remains unpaid at the end of certain periods, such as when your loan enters repayment or after a deferment or forbearance ends, it is usually added to the principal balance of the loan when the loan again has payments due (goes into repayment).\nAt that point, any future interest that accrues will be based on the new outstanding principal amount (previous principal balance plus capitalized interest). Therefore, you pay interest on interest and capitalization increases the total cost of your loan.\nYou can avoid the cost of capitalization by making payments (on accruing interest or even on the balance) during any period when they are not due.\nA process by which the school verifies that you are enrolled on at least a half-time basis, are making satisfactory academic progress, and are eligible for federal or private student loans. Certification must be made prior to any disbursement of loan funds.\nCo-Borrower | Co-Signer\nAn individual who signs the loan promissory note with you and is equally responsible for repaying the debt.\nCo-Borrower | Endorser\nAn individual who signs the loan promissory note with you and is secondarily responsible for repaying the debt if you do not.\nCombining one or multiple loans reduces the monthly payment amount and/or increases the length of the repayment period. Learn more about consolidation.\nCost of Attendance | COA\nThe estimated total cost for a full time student to complete a full academic year at a college or university.\nA report produced by a credit bureau and provided to a lender in order for the lender to determine your creditworthiness. The report includes a listing of your debts, including accounts past due. The credit report will also include information about bankruptcy, if applicable.\nAn agency that collects personal and financial information from various sources about consumers. The agency retains information about the types and amounts of credit you have obtained as well as your timeliness in making payments, as reported to the agency by the various lenders which have made loans to you.\nA number, generally between 300 and 850, provided in a credit report and used by a lender as a predictive indicator of your likelihood to repay a loan. The credit score may be used by the lender to determine eligibility and set the terms of a loan, such as the interest rate and fees.\nGenerally, the minimum monthly payment you must make by your due date, not the total amount you owe.\nData Release Number | DRN\nA four-digit number that appears on your Student Aid Report (SAR). You will need this number if you contact the Federal Student Aid Information Center to make corrections to your mailing address or to the schools you listed on the FAFSA\u00ae. Your DRN allows you to release your FAFSA and SAR data to additional schools not listed on your FAFSA.\nThe failure of a borrower to repay a loan according to the terms of the promissory note. For federal student loans default occurs at 270 days delinquent, and has a negative effect on your credit score.\nA period during which you may postpone loan payments. For certain types of loans, the federal government pays the interest that accrues during a deferment period. For unsubsidized loans, you are responsible for paying the interest that accrues during a deferment period, and any unpaid interest is added to the loan balance when the deferment ends (this is called capitalization).\nFailure to make loan payments when due. Delinquency begins with the first missed payment.\nDepartment of Education (Department)\nThe agency of the federal government that is responsible for administering the federal financial aid programs. The Department funds all Direct Loans, owns some FFELP loans, and utilizes various servicing companies, one of which is Nelnet.\nAn undergraduate student whose parents provide over half of his or her financial support. If you are single, under 24 years of age, have no legal dependents, are not an orphan or ward of the court, and are not a veteran of or serving on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces, you are a dependent student. Parents of a dependent student must submit parental information on the FAFSA\u00ae for their child to be considered for financial aid.\nOffered by the Department of Education, this program lets you combine one or more eligible federal student loans into one new Direct Consolidation Loan, with the Department of Education as your new lender. If you have multiple loans with multiple lenders, this option gives you the opportunity to make only one monthly payment to one servicer.\nThe release of loan funds to the school. Disbursements are usually made in equal, multiple installments co-payable to you and the school.\nDue Date (Payment Due Date)\nThe month, day, and year your next payment is due.\nThe date that a purchase, cash advance, fee, service charge, or payment is effective on a charge or credit account.\nIndicates whether you are enrolled full-time or part-time. Generally, you must be enrolled at least half-time to qualify for financial aid. Schools may have differing criteria for half-time and full-time enrollment.\nIf you have federal education loans, you are required to receive counseling before your first loan disbursement is made. During this counseling, your rights, responsibilities, and loan terms and conditions are reviewed. This session may be conducted online, by video, in person with the FAA, or in a group meeting.\nIf you have federal educational loans, you are required to receive counseling before graduation or if you cease to be enrolled at least half-time. During this counseling, your rights, responsibilities, and loan terms and conditions are reviewed. This session may be conducted online, by video, in person with the FAA, or in a group meeting.\nExpected Family Contribution | EFC\nAmount your family is expected to contribute to your cost of education based on your family's income, net assets, savings, size, and number of children in college.\nFinancial Aid Administrator | FAA\nA college employee involved in the administration of financial aid.\nAn online tool designed to help you financially plan for college and get an early estimate of your federal student aid eligibility.\nFederal Direct Loan Program | FDLP\nThe William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program offers Stafford, PLUS, and Consolidation loans directly from the federal government. The lender is the Department of Education. These are often referred to as Direct Loans, and are serviced by companies like Nelnet.\nFederal Family Education Loan Program | FFELP\nThe Federal Family Education Loan Program offered Stafford, PLUS, and Consolidation loans financed by private lenders and guaranteed by the federal government.

        "title": "PRESS RELEASE der ERFA: 4th Railway Package \u2013 Governance Input Paper on \u201ccooperation agreements\u201d \u2013 Netzwerk Europ\u00e4ischer Eisenbahnen e.V.",
        "raw_content": "PRESS RELEASE der ERFA: 4th Railway Package \u2013 Governance Input Paper on \u201ccooperation agreements\u201d\n\u201cCooperation agreements\u201d perpetuate monopolies in European rail\nRecent discussions within Transport Council working groups have included the idea of allowing co-operation agreements or alliances between an infrastructure manager (IM) and one or more railway undertakings (RUs). It is not yet entirely clear what is the purpose, scope or limitations on such agreements, and the benefits, if any. ERFA is concerned that cooperation agreements could be used as a tool for discrimination against new entrants and draws attention instead to the coordination committees already proposed in the 4th railway package, and which would ensure effective collaboration between all users of the rail network. ERFA reiterates its view that for a competitive rail sector, the rail network should be developed for the benefit of all rail users, and not only in the interests of one or other RU.\nCoordination and communications are necessary\u2026..\nERFA supports initiatives to make infrastructure managers more customer-orientated, and an important step in this direction is ensuring coordination between the various actors in the railway through the Coordination Committees already proposed in Article 7d of the draft Directive for governance.\nFor example, this should require IMs to consult all RUs about timetables, and closing tracks for maintenance. At present, some IMs are often accused of closing tracks at times to give their own RU a commercial advantage over independent ones. There are many examples of this in France. For these Coordination Committees to work, they must be open to all RUs on an equal basis.\n\u2026..but \u201ccooperation agreements\u201d cause market distortion\nHowever, a \u2018cooperation agreement\u2019 or \u2018alliance\u2019 between an IM and one or more RUs can cause a major distortion of the market. It may sound useful to have an agreement between an IM and an RU on a specific project but, looking into the detail, there are likely to be problems. For example, where an RU may wish a part of the network to be upgraded, is prepared to contribute financially in return for special low access charges to compensate for the contribution. This could be to the detriment of other RUs operating on the same line who may not have wanted or needed the upgrade but might effectively be paying more than the first IM who had contributed to the capital cost.\nAnother example might be an agreement between IM and one RU to receive priority access to a congested part of the network. Such an agreement would clearly have an adverse effect on other RUs. In either case, if the IM and RU are part of the holding structure, even with properly functioning Chinese walls and comprehensive independent regulation, the risks of creating an unfair advantage to those who are not party to a cooperation agreement are too great.\nERFA does not believe that the UK experience, quoted by several members of the working groups, is relevant for wider application. It should be noted that it has taken 15 years after liberalisation in the UK (where there is total separation between IM and RUs and strong regulation) for an alliance to be tested, and an ERFA member there (the Rail Freight Group) remains concerned about them and their effect on freight operations. See Appendix.\nConclusion: \u201ccooperation agreements\u201d are not the answer for European rail!\nERFA therefore strongly opposes the introduction of cooperation agreements or alliances since there are no apparent benefits that cannot be achieved by effective Coordination Committees as is already proposed. There is a high risk that any other agreement could lead to severe distortion of the market and could be used by some member states to perpetuate the benefits which monopoly incumbents currently enjoy\nThe UK experience. ERFA understands that the UK Government is proposing or supporting the idea of allowing co-operation agreements or alliances between an IM or one or more RU.\nThe UK Rail Freight Group, a member of ERFA, offers the following comments:\n\u2018The UK IM (Network Rail) has formed a number of different alliances (co-operation agreements) with third parties for different reasons. Some cover projects, others particular work programmes, and all aim to bring earlier and closer working, and in some, but not all cases, to share any upside financial gain for example in project delivery. For the most part, such alliances are not causing specific concern as they are not related to the day to day operation of trains.\nHowever where the Alliance is between the IM and one train operator, there is more unease. In the UK the so called Deep Alliance between the IM,Network Rail and the franchised passenger operator, South West Trains (SWT), has brought operations together under a single Managing Director with cost sharing arrangements in place. The Alliance causes a refocus of activity for all employees in the two entities towards activity to the benefit of that train operator, seeking positive outcomes for them. Other operators have received assurances that they will not suffer as a consequence of this, but it is difficult to see how in reality such an approach would not marginalise interest in others. Although there are no specific reports of negative treatment, freight performance has not benefitted from the Alliance, and a number of key projects for freight have suffered delay. Additionally, passenger performance has not benefited either.\nIn this specific case, the train operator, SWT, is owned by a company who has no financial interest in any other train operator in the area. This may not always be the case, and there would be the potential for further distortion of the competitive market if the owing group was partial.\nAlthough regulatory safeguards remain in place around timetabling, access and charges, it is not possible to regulate day to day behaviour, and for that reason, RFG is uneasy with the prospect of cooperation agreements relating to the day to day operation of the network and other issues that might affect the fair operation of the network.\u2019",

Linda Johnson of Kannapolis and Nelson Dollar of Cary serve on the legislative services commission and said they knew nothing of the renovation.\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t be able to comment without seeing the project, which I have not,\u201d Dollar said.\nAnna Roberts, a spokeswoman for Tillis\u2019 office, referred all questions about the construction to interim legislative services director Kory Goldsmith.\nGoldsmith said the wood paneling behind the speaker\u2019s podium will match the speaker\u2019s desk. And she said the walled-off doors will match a similar arrangement in the Senate chamber across the hall.\nBoth chambers were built with 13 sets of doors \u2013 five on each side, two in the front, and one large bronze one leading to the lobby. The three center sets of doors in the House will be covered by drywall, with the original doors still in place and locked on the outside.\nGoldsmith said she doesn\u2019t know whether the new walls are related to security concerns. Martin said he saw no problems stemming from excessive access to the room. \u201cThe doors never bothered me,\u201d he said.\nThe display boards show instant vote tallies and haven\u2019t been replaced for 14 years, Goldsmith said. Both the House and Senate will get new ones. She said she didn\u2019t have a cost estimate for the boards, which aren\u2019t included in the $125,000 renovation price tag.\n\u201cThere were some malfunctions last year\u201d with the voting equipment, she said.\nUpgrades always controversial\nLawmakers have been hesitant to approve upgrades on the Legislative Building since it opened in 1964. The first major renovation didn\u2019t come until 1989, when a $5.2 million upgrade included the facility\u2019s first new coat of paint in 25 years.\nHenson Barnes, the Senate leader at the time, told reporters the project would involve \u201cno frills,\u201d and legislators killed plans for an escalator. Modern technology was a part of the overhaul even then, with $150,000 set aside for 30 new computer terminals for legislators to share.\nA decade later, a $5.1 million proposal for new furniture and other upgrades also faced criticism. Republican Rep. Leo Daughtry of Smithfield blasted Democrats for what he called a \u201clavish spending proposal\u201d that included desks costing $8,000 each.\nBoth earlier renovations involved input from both parties. Martin said a similar process should have occurred this year because the work will alter the look of the House chamber.\n\u201cIf you want to run some new wires, that\u2019s fine,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you\u2019re going to make significant changes to it, it needs to be something that engages the members in a discussion.\u201d\nGoldsmith says the changes will be complete by the time new legislators arrive for freshman orientation in early December. Until then, visitors and legislators won\u2019t be able to access the House chamber.",

J. Janisch, Sergeant Michael Brewer, and Master Corporal Stephen Giza were selected to receive air travel and tickets to attend the 2019 Honda NHL\u00ae All-Star Weekend with a guest.\nTORONTO/HASTINGS, Minn. (Jan. 23, 2019) \u2013 The United Heroes League (UHL) and the National Hockey League Players\u2019 Association (NHLPA) have announced the four winners of the All-Star Hero campaign, which recognizes military personnel and their families for their services through the players\u2019 NHLPA Goals & Dreams fund: Sergeant Richard Silva, Lieutenant Colonel Darrin J. Janisch, Sergeant Michael Brewer and Master Corporal Stephen Giza.\nThe four service members, of an estimated 200 nominations, were selected by the UHL after the public was asked to nominate their military hero:\nSergeant Richard Silva\nSgt. Silva, of Chula Vista, California, served in the United States Marine Corps for 9 years. Deployed in 2004 to Fallujah, Iraq, Sgt. Silva was attached to a Marine Recon unit in which he would serve alongside PFC Geoffrey Perez. The unit was hit by enemy fire and Sgt. Silva suffered several serious and lasting injuries as the only surviving member of his squad. Sgt. Silva remained at the side of his comrades, radioing for help while offering encouragement and support until being medically evacuated. He was honourably discharged stateside and awarded the Purple Heart and a Bronze Star with Valor for his bravery, and today remains an active advocate for wounded veterans across the U.S. No longer able to play hockey due to his injuries, the father of four enjoys being able to watch and encourage his son, RJ (given the middle name, Perez, in honour of his fallen comrade), continue the family tradition of playing hockey. Sgt. Silva was nominated by his daughter, Maura, and learned of the campaign and his selection in a surprise phone call from player ambassador, Brent Burns.\nLieutenant Colonel Darrin J. Janisch\nLt. Col. Janisch, of Savage, Minnesota, began his career with the United States Army as a Paratrooper in 1989 and has been deployed five times over his 31 years of service \u2013 including Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm and Enduring Freedom. He survived three explosions and several close-range ambushes during a 22-month deployment in Iraq as an Infantry Company Commander and spent nearly a year retraining his brain and regaining balance after sustaining a Traumatic Brain Injury. On hand when the last combat vehicle crossed the border from Iraq into Kuwait on Dec. 17, 2011, Lt. Col. Janisch was redeployed in 2012 and continues to serve as a member of the Minnesota Army National Guard. A passionate fan and player himself, Lt. Col. Janisch runs an annual hockey tournament that reconnects fellow service members through a shared love of the game, crediting the sport as a piece of consistency through multiple transitions from combat to civilian life. He was nominated by his wife, Ann, and learned of the campaign and his selection in a surprise video on Christmas from player ambassador, Matt Hendricks.\nSergeant Michael Brewer\nSgt. Michael Brewer of Lake Placid, New York, served in the United States Army for seven years, enlisting at 29 after witnessing the death of friends in Iraq as a civilian contractor. Sgt. Brewer was ambushed by multiple RPG explosions in Afghanistan while driving a convoy. Undeterred by severely impaired vision from smoke and blood, he successfully drove his convoy to safety and has since endured 14 facial and hand surgeries, a Traumatic Brain Injury, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. He awaits further surgery. Sgt. Michael Brewer was honourably discharged, receiving a Purple Heart in addition to an Army Commendation with Valor. After relocation from Georgia for better access to the sport, Sgt. Brewer takes joy in watching his 10-year-old son, Alex, pursue his own hockey dreams inspired by the 1980 U.S. Olympic team. As Alex fights an ongoing battle with Lyme Disease, he and his father hope to enjoy a weekend free of doctor appointments at the 2019 Honda NHL\u00ae All-Star Weekend. Sgt. Michael Brewer was nominated by his wife, Jill, and learned of the campaign and his selection in a surprise phone call from player ambassador, Vinni Lettieri.\nMaster Corporal Stephen Giza\nMCpl. Stephen Giza, of London, Ontario, has served in the Canadian Armed Forces as a Vehicle Technician for 15 years. Among completing several Canadian and International Operations, he has been deployed to Canada\u2019s most northern inhabited base, CFS Alert and also to Eureka, Iqaluit. During his tour of Afghanistan in 2007, MCpl. Giza was struck by two IEDs, the second of which saw him medically evacuated with serious lower extremity injuries. For his actions during wartime under enemy contact, MCpl. Stephen Giza received the prestigious Sacrifice medal. He was also the recipient of the Army Commanders Commendation and a wound stripe for his injuries. In 2015 MCpl. Giza was redeployed to Ali Al Salem Kuwait, where he completed a six-month tour. He continues to inspire young soldiers daily as a dedicated leader instilling the same selflessness and ethics into his own subordinates. MCpl. Stephen Giza was nominated by his wife, Lisa, and learned of the campaign and his selection in a surprise phone call from player ambassador Jake Gardiner.\nThe 2019 All-Star Hero campaign\nEach of the four winners and their guest will receive air travel to San Jose for the chance to meet and interact with players in the NHLPA All-Star Lounge at the 2019 Honda NHL\u00ae All-Star Weekend. Tickets to NHL All-Star Skills and the NHL All-Star Game will also be provided, along with hotel accommodations, ground transportation and other prizing.\nTrack #YourAllStarHero on social media or follow @@NHLPA on Twitter or Instagram for the behind-the-scenes experience of these heroes, following the 2019 Honda NHL\u00ae All-Star Weekend.\nYour All-Star Hero: Sgt.

We regularly see children with pediatric mental health issues including:\nStarting with a diagnosis\nWhile observing your child's behavior or interactions with others can give you a sense that help is needed, determining what kind of help takes more than just observation. Our board-certified child psychiatrists and support staff will work to understand not only your child's current mental health but its history. We will review any records received from your child's primary care provider, as well as from any other providers or facilities in regular contact with your child.\nWe will also work to understand how a behavioral condition is impacting your child's physical and social development, and even your family's well-being. We will talk to both parents or guardians, as well as the patient. All of this will help us determine exactly what mental health condition could be affecting your child.\nGetting an accurate diagnosis takes time. You should be prepared for your child's initial clinical assessment appointment to take approximately 2.5 hours. A parent or guardian must be present for the initial visit and should be prepared to provide medical, social and behavioral background information for the patient.\nOnce we determine a diagnosis for your child's mental health concern, we will develop a treatment plan that works best for your child and your family. Treatment plans can including medication management, a referral for therapy or both.\nWe firmly believe that a complete treatment plan involves the entire family. A pediatric patient's parents or guardians and siblings will be included in a child's treatment whenever possible.\nThere for you every step of the way\nJust as most pediatric mental health concerns do not arise overnight, they will also take time to get under control. Whether your child's treatment plan involves medication, counseling or both, you can expect follow-up visits with our providers when necessary to reevaluate treatment plans and to make changes as needed.",

All science professionals, whether they are in education, research or industry, will need to engage different audiences in science communication at various points in their career. This course aims to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to evaluate scientific information and to communicate it effectively to both expert and lay audiences. The following broad topics will be covered: mutual roles and influence of Science and society, principles of effective science communication, evaluating the quality of scientific evidence, and current science-related issues affecting society. Opportunities for practice in science communication will be provided.\nCourse Description (Required Specialisation Courses)\nMLS941 Critical Inquiry (Clean Energy Physics)\nThis course will enable participants to acquire experimental skills/techniques which are specific to Clean Energy Physics Specialisation and enhance their higher order thinking skills like critical thinking, problem solving, and application of knowledge through the use of the science Inquiry approach to solve clean energy related problems.\nMLS942 Global Energy Systems\nThis course is designed for students to understand the global energy sources available for mankind especially for those who are engaged with or planning a career in professional contexts relating to energy management, education, R&D and marketing. It provides both theoretical and practical understanding of how energy and climate policies are distribute and connected across a multitude of cases drawn from global to local arenas.\nMLS943 Photovoltaic Physics and Solar Cells\nToday the traditional energy sources based on fossil fuels are depleting at an ever fast rate and will be exhausted in the next centuries. Photovoltaic solar energy becomes one of the most feasible alternative energy sources that will provides energy demand for mankind in the future. This course deals with the issues of an alternative sustainable energy source that relies on the direct conversion of sunlight into electrical energy in solar cells based on the photovoltaic effect.\nMLS944 Nuclear Physics and Fission Energy\nNuclear Energy presently contributes about 15% of the World's supply of electricity with minimal production of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. This course provides in-depth coverage of the physics related to nuclear energy (basic nuclear physics, fission reactions, neutron physics, reactor physics, radiation interactions) together with a general overview of some important aspects of nuclear energy systems, including: reactor technologies, the nuclear fuel cycle, uranium and thorium resources, nuclear safety, and the human health effects of radiation. The contribution that nuclear energy can make to the security and sustainability of energy supplies is highlighted.\nCourse Description (Elective Courses)\nThermonuclear Fusion science has made great progress and inertial confinement based National Ignition Facility in US and magnetic confinement based International Thermonuclear Experiment Reactor in France are in their advance stage of construction and operation. Their successful operation will pave the way for clean and long term future energy sources. Thermonuclear fusion uses extremely high temperatures with hot dense plasma of fusion fuel being confined for sufficiently long durations for net energy output. The major objectives of this course are: (i) to highlight the advantages of Fusion over other energy resources, (ii) to understand the fundamental concepts related to plasma in terms of single particle motion and that of fusion process, (iii) to understand the role of plasma heating and plasma confinement in achieving controlled thermonuclear fusion, and (iv) to provide in-depth coverage of magnetic fusion and inertial confinement fusion schemes. The major topics included are: World energy scenario; Fusion as clean and long-term energy source; Fundamentals of plasmas; Single particle motion in electric and magnetic fields; Fundamentals of fusion process; Magnetic confinement schemes including magnetic mirror and tokamak; Inertial confinement fusion; and Alternative magnetic fusion device \u2013 plasma focus.\nThe amount of information that can be derived from an examination of any material depends ultimately on how fine a probe is used. The wavelength of X-rays in the region of 0.1 nm would be an excellent probe. Modern scanning techniques are able to probe down to the nanometer scale lengths as well. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron Spectroscopy are useful for the studies of molecular structure. The electron microscope is also widely used for high resolution work in studying cellular ultrastructure. Transmission and scanning electron microscopies (TEM and SEM) are normally used to investigate the 3-dimensional pattern of advance nanostructured materials. To identify the various elements especially, the energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectroscopy is an excellent tool. This course will survey a wide range of modern and traditional characterization techniques with emphasis on techniques which are useful in current research laboratories. Participants will have the opportunity to learn to operate selected characterization instruments in this course.\nEnergy storage systems allow the supply and demand of energy to be balanced. This is particularly important with current renewable energy resources such as solar energy where the energy produced during the day can be stored or use at night. Participants in this course will learn various types of energy storage systems and its related technologies. Some examples of energy storage systems are reservoirs and dams for storing gravitational potential energy to run hydroelectric power generators, chemical storage systems, batteries, thermal energy storage. Details of energy storage systems vary in their intended use, for example the energy storage system for a vehicle will have quite different requirements from an energy storage system for a home or grid energy storage system. In addition to the physics of novel energy storage systems, this course will also allow students to discuss the safety, cleanness and economic viability modern energy storage systems.\nThe course on Molecular Spectroscopy will provide the students with the theoretical knowledge and the experimental tools in understanding the properties of many different materials especially those used in clean energy technologies e.g. the materials used in solar cells and biofuels. In this course, the students will learn and use the techniques applied in molecular spectroscopy, and they are microwave, infrared, and Raman spectroscopies.\nWith population growth, industrial development and technology advancement, the global demand for energy has increased drastically. However, 90 per cent of the primary energy use, nowadays, is from non-renewable sources which include the fossil fuels and nuclear energy. Over-reliance on these non-renewable sources poses grave threats to the sustainable human development such as energy crisis (where the peak of oil production will be reached before year 2020) and environmental debt (including global warming, greenhouse gas emission, nuclear disaster, etc.). As a result, current energy development is moving toward the development of clean energy as sustainable provision of energy to meets the future needs. In this course, students are expect to perform literature review on the latest advances in clean energy research, development and technologies.\nQuantum mechanics is widely recognized as the basic law that governs all of nature, including all materials and devices. It has always been essential to the understanding of material properties, and as devices become smaller it is also essential for studying their behavior. This is an introductory course on quantum theory designed for students to understand the rudiments of the physics governing the atoms and molecules. There is an increasing need for professionals in clean energy to delve deeper and deeper into the laws of microscopic regime.\nThis course is designed for students to understand the science and technology of generating detecting and manipulating light/ photons. Students will expected to propose, carry out, present and review photonics related hands on work. This course allows students to develop both theoretical and practical understanding light. This course is intended to support the students by providing them with the opportunity to study advanced concepts of lasers and light to allow a better understanding of equipment and techniques which they may encounter in their science, technology and engineering related Masters studies or PhD research.\nStudents will be able to understand the physics, technology and applications of nanoscaled materials and devices. These include quantum confinements in 0, 1, 2 and 3 D systems, assembly and characterization of nanostructures, nanofabrication and application of various functional devices.",

        "raw_content": "NDIS to continue roll out in Queensland\nTHE National Disability Insurance Scheme has already been rolled out in New South Wales and is currently being introduced in some parts of Queensland, with the remainder of the state scheduled for the rollout from July 1.\nThe scheme - as the name suggests - is designed to assist people in the community who have a disability and associated needs.\nBut how do people with a disability know if they will be eligible for the scheme?\nThe NDIS website provides an access checklist to help people determine whether they meet some of the basis criteria for eligibility.\nThe provisions include:\nThe applicant must be either an Australian citizen or permanent resident or hold a protected special category visa.\nThey must be under the age of 65.\nThey must live in an area where the NDIS has been rolled out.\nThey must have requirements and the need for support because of their disability, either now or in the future.\nThe successful applicant would then be potentially entitled to various services, ranging from medical treatment to educational or vocational support.\nThis would of course depend upon the availability of those services during the different rollout timelines in different cities.\nObviously this could make things a lot easier for various members of our community.\nIt is important to look into the eligibility requirements if you, a friend or a family member are suffering from a disability.\n*Elspeth Ledwy is a senior associate with Kelly Legal and can be contacted on elspeth.ledwy@kellylegal.com.au or at kellylegal.com.au.",

        "title": "The Blackpool Tramway",
        "raw_content": "They have the worst weather in the world, but they also have the hottest looking open top trams (streetcars). Welcome onboard the 1930s Blackpool Balloon cars in the UK. Alan Robson has around 1,300 pictures of the vehicles, some of them below. Text and first picture from Wikipedia.\nDouble-deck tram systems\n\u201cThe Blackpool tramway runs from Blackpool to Fleetwood on the Fylde Coast in Lancashire, England, and is the only surviving first-generation tramway in the United Kingdom. The tramway dates back to 1885 and is one of the oldest electric tramways in the world. It is run by Blackpool Transport (BTS) as part of the Metro Coastlines, owned by Blackpool Borough Council. The tramway runs for 11 miles (17.7 km) and carries 6,500,000 passengers each year. It is also one of only three operational tramways in the world that operates using double-deck tram systems, the other two places being Hong Kong and Alexandria in Egypt.\u201d\nAll Blackpool trams pictured here are balloon cars:\n\u201cCommissioned in 1933 by Walter Luff, the controller of the network, in a bid to modernise the tramway\u2019s fleet, they were intended to replace the Dreadnought cars that had been in service since the opening of the tramway. They were built by English Electric during 1934 and 1935, the first being presented to Blackpool on 10 December 1934. 27 were delivered, of which thirteen were open-topped. Numbered 237-263 and used on both summer and winter services. They had central doors and stairs, with a capacity of 84-94. Half-drop windows provided ventilation and art deco curved glass lights provided electric lighting.\u201d\n\u201cThe enclosed-top trams had sliding roof windows and thermostatic-controlled radiators. The closed top cars originally worked on the Squires Gate service, and it was during this time that they became known as Balloon Cars because of their rounded streamlined appearance.\u201d\n\u201cDuring World War II the need for the open-top cars fell significantly and cars 237-249 had their tops enclosed to look almost like 250-263. Also during this period the fleet was painted in a dark green and cream livery in order to conserve paint and time, as well as to reduce the chances of their being spotted from the air.\u201d\nAnother remarkably vehicle on the Blackpool Tramway is the boat car (also to be found in San Franscisco).\n\u201cBuilt by English Electric in 1934, these cars are single deck open-topped models with central doors and gangway. They are numbered 600-607 and have a passenger capacity of between 52 and 56. These cars are known as \u2018the boats\u2019 due to their ship-like streamlined appearance and are one of the most iconic Blackpool trams. All cars are virtually identical, except for 600, which has shorter body panels.\u201d\n\u201cThe boats were first commissioned by Walter Luff in 1933, in accordance with his five year plan. The first prototype boat arrived in Blackpool during early spring in 1934 along with four other designs. After an initial trial period, company directors approved an orders for eleven more production cars, which arrived in July and August 1934. These new boats were numbered 225-236.\u201d\nIn June 2009, the government gave the go ahead for a tramway upgrade. Sigh.\nMore information on balloon cars and on boat cars.\nComposition of the fleet.\nMore pictures here, here and here.\nSeptember 16, 2009 by kris de decker Filed Under: Public transport, Random, Trams or streetcars, Travel",

The program will enroll its first class of students for the fall 2006 semester.\n\u201cWe are proud to assume a leadership role in offering the DNP program because it clearly responds to current and future needs of the American health care system and to the educational demands of current nurse educators, nurse administrators, nurse informaticians, and all advanced practice nurses,\u201d says Janet D. Allan, PhD, RN, CS, FAAN, dean of the School of Nursing.\nUntil now, master's prepared nurses desiring to further their education had no choice but to enter PhD programs, which, by design, prepare nurse scientists. While nursing research is vitally needed and contributes to the improvement of health care for the nation, many nurses prefer to remain focused on direct patient care or leadership in patient care systems as they pursue advanced degrees in their profession.\nAdditionally, many DNP candidates look forward to educating the next generations of nurses by becoming faculty in nursing schools. To specifically support this effort, the School of Nursing has received a five-year, $1,020,000 grant from the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission to fund the new DNP program.\n\u201cThis practice-focused doctoral program opens the door for nurses who want to pursue one of the most advanced degrees in their field, rigorously applying scientific evidence in practice environments, participating in multidisciplinary collaborations, and leading at the highest educational, clinical and executive ranks,\u201d says Patricia G.

        "raw_content": "Prerequisites: High school diploma; completion of program prerequisites; basic knowledge of life sciences and strong communication skills.\nKnown States in Industry: West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Tennessee, Alabama, Alaska, California, Washington, Hawaii and Nevada.\nAllied health science is a broad field of study that encompasses several different healthcare disciplines. Allied health professionals are an integral part of the healthcare system because they provide a wide range of patient care and support services that help physicians, nurses and researchers. Each allied health profession has different education requirements and job demands specifically designed for their department. Allied health science degree programs prepare students to enter their specified discipline after completing academic studies and hands-on clinical rotations in labs and medical centers. Allied health science degree programs allow students to narrow their focus on a specific area of healthcare, such as nutrition/diet, radiography, medical coding, phlebotomy, occupational therapy and much more. Depending on the discipline, a bachelor's degree in allied health science typically takes four years or less to complete.\nThere are some 200 different allied health professions within the healthcare system today. Each one has a different salary range that varies by employer, education level, experience, location and job title. Some popular careers in allied health include: pharmacy technicians, emergency medical technicians, dental hygienists, radiologic technicians and diagnostic medical sonographers. The job outlook for allied health science careers is expected to be positive as the healthcare industry continues to expand and advance. One allied health job in particular, pharmacy technician, is expected to grow exponentially over the next seven years by 25 percent. Even the salary for pharmacy technicians is favorable. The average salary for pharmacy technicians was $28,070 in 2008, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.\nIn order to apply to an allied health science degree, you'll need to have a high school diploma and master any required prerequisites first. In addition to meeting all academic requirements, you should also have a strong understanding of the life sciences and possess strong communication skills. Once again, each allied health discipline requires different kinds of skills and knowledge. For example, if you're training to be a phlebotomist, you should be able to stand the sight of blood and needles. If not, this is probably not the right area for you, and you may be better off in a non-clinical position.\nIt's difficult to list the best states for allied health science programs and careers because it is such a broad field of healthcare. With that being said, you can do some research on the most popular careers within the field by focusing on the states that have the highest concentration of employees in this industry and the ones that have the highest salaries. For example, a popular allied health profession such as pharmacy technician has the highest concentration of workers in West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Tennessee and Alabama. The top paying states for this profession are Alaska, California, Washington, Hawaii and Nevada. You can do this method of research for all other allied health professions or just the ones that interest you.\nIf you already have a bachelor's degree in allied health science, there are still plenty of opportunities for you to advance your education within this field. You can attend graduate school to obtain your master's degree in allied health in order to work in leadership, research, and clinical positions. You can also pursue graduate study in post-baccalaureate nursing, medical school, dental school, physical therapy, or another field of healthcare.",

        "raw_content": "Man linked to 4 killings suspected of being in US illegally\nBy MICHELLE L. PRICE and KEN RITTER\nThis undated photo provided by the Carson City Sheriff's Office in Carson City, Nev., shows suspect Wilbur Martinez-Guzman. Authorities investigating four recent Nevada killings say murder charges are pending against Martinez-Guzman, suspected of being in the U.S. illegally. (AP)\nA man suspected of being in the U.S. illegally shot and killed four people in Nevada over the past two weeks, including an elderly Reno couple, authorities said, and the slayings added fuel to the immigration debate.\nWilbur Ernesto Martinez-Guzman, 19, from El Salvador, has been jailed in Carson City since Saturday on possession of stolen property, burglary and immigration charges. Authorities said they expect to file murder charges against him in the shooting deaths of the couple and two women in the nearby town of Gardnerville.\nCarson City Sheriff Ken Furlong said federal immigration authorities told his office that Martinez-Guzman was in the country illegally. Immigration and Customs Enforcement did not have details on his entry into the U.S.\nThe investigation is ongoing, the sheriff said, and it was too early to comment on a possible motive.\nInvestigators who had been tracking Martinez-Guzman considered him \"an imminent threat\" when they arrested him Saturday afternoon in the parking lot of a shopping mall.\n\"We couldn't account for him Friday night, and we couldn't predict what he would do Saturday night,\" Furlong told The Associated Press in an interview. \"It was too great a risk to the public not to make the arrest.\"\nDetectives had watched Martinez-Guzman go to a car wash and trash bins, raising concern among detectives that he might try to dispose of evidence connected to the slayings. He did not have a weapon when he was handcuffed, the sheriff said.\nThe suspect did not yet have an attorney who could speak on his behalf, according to the sheriff.\nPresident Donald Trump seized on the killings as evidence of the need for his proposed U.S.-Mexico border wall.\nSince the start of his presidency, he has highlighted crimes committed by immigrants who were here illegally, including the killing of a 32-year-old woman at a San Francisco pier in 2015. Last month, he tweeted about allegations that a man from Mexico fatally shot a California police officer.\nMany academics and Trump's critics have pushed back on that narrative, citing studies that have found that immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than people born in the United States.\nThe suspect, who was due in court Thursday, had lived in the Carson City area for about a year. His only known infraction was a traffic ticket for speeding in February, the sheriff said.\n\"We have no information this guy has ever been on anyone's radar,\" Furlong said.\nThe Nevada investigation began Jan. 10, when 56-year-old Connie Koontz was found dead in her home. Three days later, the body of 74-year-old Sophia Renken was discovered in her home about a mile (1.6 kilometers) from where Koontz lived, authorities said.\nOn Jan. 16, the bodies of 81-year-old Gerald David and his 80-year-old wife, Sharon, were found in their home on the southern edge of Reno.\nThe two were remembered as \"jovial\" by Tom Cates, a longtime friend who knew the Davids through Reno's rodeo and equestrian scene.\nCates said Gerald David used his time as the rodeo association president in 2006 to promote a breast cancer awareness campaign by getting the group's cowboys to show they were \"tough enough to wear pink shirts.\"\n\"Jerry was probably one of the finest leaders that I've ever met,\" Cates said. \"You walk into a room and his presence will just command attention. He was a true leader.\"\nSharon David, he said, was \"exuberant, bubbly, loved animals to the hills\" and was a former director of the rodeo, Cates said.\nKoontz, who worked at a Walmart and as a manicurist at a local salon, was remembered by store co-workers on Tuesday as a positive woman who loved wearing bright colors. Her Walmart colleagues wore memorial buttons with her picture.\nShe was \"the only person I know that could come to work wearing lime green glasses and lime green crocs and rock it,\" said Teri Bower, who works at the store.\nKoontz and her daughter were best friends, Bower said, and the mother had saved up money and surprised her daughter with a trip to Las Vegas for her 21st birthday in December.\nBower said the killings had shaken the quiet community where everyone knows everyone and big news is a pending storm \"or a bear running down Main Street.\"\n\"This does not happen around here,\" Bower said. \"It's crazy.\"",

        "raw_content": "Books|Fiction in the Last 25 Years\nBooks | A Discussion\nFiction in the Last 25 Years\nEarly this year, the Book Review's editor, Sam Tanenhaus, sent out a short letter to a couple of hundred prominent writers, critics, editors and other literary sages, asking them to please identify \"the single best work of American fiction published in the last 25 years.\" [See the results. Read A. O. Scott's essay. See a list of the judges. Join other readers in a discussion.]\nTo discuss the survey and the state of American fiction, the Book Review has invited the novelists Jane Smiley and Michael Cunningham, as well as Stephen Metcalf, a critic, and Morris Dickstein, an author and critic who teaches English at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Gregory Cowles, an editor at the Book Review, will moderate the discussion, which follows:\nGregory Cowles, May 22, 9:45 AM ET:\nDear Stephen and Jane and Michael and Morris,\nI want to start by thanking each of you for participating in the forum, and for agreeing to discuss your thoughts about our best-fiction survey and its results. Obviously, there's always an element of the party game to this kind of exercise \u2014 maybe more so here, since we asked our judges to choose just one book; certainly we didn't make your job any easier. But even as a party game I think the list of titles is clarifying. As one of you said to me recently: \"These are the books that rocked our world in that time period.\" And of course, the list is also contentious: THESE are the books that rocked our world??\nI hope that as the week progresses we'll have plenty of contention and clarification, both about the nature of the list and about the specific books that rose to the top. In that regard, Stephen has already fired an opening volley over at Slate with his assessment of Beloved (http://www.slate.com/id/2141971).\nBut before we get into the nitty gritty of the actual winners and what they say (or don't) about American fiction in the last 25 years, I wonder if you could discuss your reaction to the survey itself. All of you chose to participate; did you have any reservations about doing so? And given the requirement to name just one book, how did you arrive at your choices? We didn't suggest any guidelines, so I'm curious whether you provided your own: did you rule out certain kinds of books? gravitate toward others? pick an author and then a book? In short, I guess, I wonder if you think there is such a creature as the Great American Novel \u2014 and, if so, how you would go about defining it.\nI look forward to listening in on your conversations this week.\nJane Smiley, May 22, 10:54 AM ET:\nI would have to say that when I got the request from Sam Tanenhaus, I was fairly light-hearted about it \u2014 the first book that leapt to my mind was my own \u2014 \"Horse Heaven\" \u2014 simply because I loved writing it and it has lots of equine characters, but, of course, as they told us in first grade, you can't vote for yourself. The second thought I had was that I probably hadn't read the best American novel of the last twenty-five years, and I was in no position to judge \u2014 I can't think who would be, but perhaps Stephen or Morris. I think novelists tend to read around idly rather than systematically, and I spend a lot of time reading research materials rather than other novels. But my third thought was \"Beloved\". It seemed to me to have the historical scope that a \"best\" or \"most important\" novel would have, and also to epitomize what I thought happened in the last 25 years, which was the re-thinking and re-writing of much of American history and self-regard. When I was reading for and writing \"Thirteen Ways of Looking at the Novel,\" I was struck by some formal contrasts between \"Beloved\" and the most controversial novel of the 19th century, which was \"Uncle Tom's Cabin.\" Both novels take up a subject that is very difficult for Americans. Stowe uses melodrama and polemic \u2014 the novel is straight-forward, suspenseful, and infuriating, because she is furious! Morrison is much cannier. She uses the form of a ghost story, and fills it in with folk-tales. The subject is dramatic, the action is horrifying, but the forms she uses lure us in. When she gets to the climax, which is what actually happened during the earlier escape from the plantation, the shocking events are suddenly revealed. They have been treated as secrets and tales. This makes the novel suspenseful the way a ghost story is suspenseful. But of course, what Morrison really wanted to do, I assume, was to re-write history \u2014 to tell Sethe's tale in a truer way than it had ever been told before. My view is that this has been the main thrust of novel-writing in the last twenty-five years. In our present lives, we often have had the feeling that history was overtaking us, that life was very confusing and frightening, and that the U.S. was not what we had thought it was. That feeling gave us the desire to look at our history again and find out what was \"really true\", or to learn another version or interpretation of history that would more readily explain the world that we live in than the previously learned versions did. So I was one of the authors who chose \"Beloved.\"\nAt the same time, I did have qualms, and when Greg asked me to join the blog-session about the list, the first question I asked was about the gender break-down of the responders, and he said that 69% of the responders were men, though requests had been sent out to men and women equally. I had thought of not responding, not playing the game, as it were, so that statistic intrigued me. It does seem to me to be a male game. Here we have the final four, and here were have the champion. Maybe the women novelists who didn't respond did feel that one novel could be chosen as \"best.\" Certainly, when I was reading the novels I wrote about in \"Thirteen Ways,\" which took me about three years and included everything from \"Moby Dick\" to \"Anna Karenina\" to \"The Decameron\" to \"Lady Chatterley's Lover,\" I did not feel afterward that I could pick a \"best\" or \"greatest\" novel. They were too diverse, and it seemed ridiculous to compare \"In Search of Lost Time\" to \"Pride and Prejudice\" in any terms \u2014 the great joy was to take pleasure in both rather than trying to chose between them.\nAnother thing I did when I saw the list is order a few of the runner-up books to take with me on my trip to England (where I am now). The only one that came before I left was \"American Pastoral,\" by Philip Roth, which I had not read before. So I may or may not report on my reading of Roth's book as the days go by. My first impression is that it is very masculine in its take on the late 20th century and that somehow its presence on the list is representative of what the list is in a more interesting way than \"Beloved.\"\nA final thought \u2014 once during the late 1850's, an American writer went to England \u2014 it might have been Hawthorne? \u2014 when he came home he reported that English novelists that he had met thought very little of Dickens and considered Thackeray the best English novelist. In our time, Dickens is representative of the Victorians, while Thackeray is a specialized taste. So, I suppose we can see from that that so many factors go into the rise and fall of novels and novelists that, once again, the question of which is the \"best\" or the \"greatest\" is a parlor game.\nStephen Metcalf, May 22, 11:10 AM ET:\nGreg, Jane, Michael, and Morris\nI'm glad \u2014 relieved? \u2014 to be starting off with the \"meta\" questions. Maybe it will ease us into the more contentious subject of specific choices. After receiving the note from the Book Review, I set it aside, let the thought (of such a survey) knock around in my head for a couple of weeks, and then, interestingly, completely forgot which adjective \u2014 \"distinguished,\" \"important,\" \"meritorious\" \u2014 we were honoring by fixing a single novel title to it. At dinner with a critic whom I admire, who refused to participate in the survey, we argued over whether the exercise was meaningful or fatuous. She thought: why reduce an enormously rich and varied universe of works to a hierarchical list? \"Best\" is a null critical term; it describes nothing. I'm very interested to hear why Jane and Michael returned responses. Here's why I did.\nI believe it is fatuous, but also weirdly edifying to have such a competition, if that's what it is, the same way it's better to have a poll system in college football than a playoff. It generates two things: a conversation and a reading list. The conversation is one way to draw readers into the otherwise arcane and milieu-centered preoccupations of critics. Why is one book better than another? And to whom? The list such a competition generates encourages people, whether by aspiration or shame, to read books they might otherwise ignore. The roping off of a set of works by an intellectual oligarchy is a good thing, I think, if it gets more people to engage with Updike, Roth, Morrison, Smiley, Cunningham, Delillo, Ford, Robinson. As a secondary benefit, it begins to enwrap these writers in the aura of literary history \u2014 that is, it begins the work of re-making fairly recent novels into a usable literary past; from books that \"rocked our world\" into books that deserve the respect of future generations.\nFatuous enough? OK, let me bring the tone down a little by making a couple of admissions. The final reason I wanted to participate was to help \"Beloved\" lose; a quixotic ambition, as I knew it would be the winner. My favorite works of American fiction from the past twenty-five years are The Sopranos, Season One, the short story \"Sexy,\" by Jumpha Lahiri, \"Libra,\" by Don Delillo, and \"Independence Day,\" by Richard Ford. But of course such a survey doesn't ask you for your favorite. Like a political primary, it's about \"electability.\" I voted for \"Underworld,\" but strategically.\nMichael Cunningham, May 22, 11:14 AM ET:\nI did in fact have reservations, as one would.\nAll the major prizes and other acknowledgements I can think of, with thenotable exception of the Nobel, are for work done during a defined period,ranging from the past year to the past 25. And even the Nobel, thegranddaddy of prizes, is only awarded to living authors \u2013 sorry Borges,sorry Nabokov, just didn't get around to you in time. Congratulations,Pearl S. Buck and Dario Fo.\nAs an indication of the grandest capacities of the human race, all prizesassume that we produce good and great works of art at a steady rate. Whichis obviously untrue. Look at history. There are fallow periods \u2013 sometimesyears, sometimes decades, and even sometimes centuries \u2014 interrupted byperiods of fecundity. Whether this has to do with shifts in economics orpolitics or a decision on the planet Zoltar to aim creativity rays at theearth again, or whatever, I couldn't say. The fact, however, remains \u2014works of genius do not conform to the calendar.\nAnd so, acknowledgements that are time-specific are to some extent, bydefinition, not particularly accurate indicators of what we call\"greatness,\" which means, to me at least, the work that will endure. Theyare records of what mattered most at any given time in history. Theselections say as much about the selecters as they do about the winners andlosers.\nSo I agreed to participate with that idea in mind \u2013 that I was contributingto a record of what we, the living, silly humans, thought mattered in theyear 2006.\nPrizes, of course, just aren't sexy unless there's a first-place winner.I'm pleased to see \"Beloved\" in first place. I mean no disrespect to Morrisonif I say that any of the four runners-up could plausibly have been thefirst-place winner as well. No one of those books feels quite definitive ofthe 25-year period, but the five taken in aggregate do. Everyone of coursehas favorites, and I'm sure any number of readers feel, with justification,that some great book or other has been ignominiously ignored. But thesefive books do strike me as indicative of what we cared most about over thelast 25 years, and who was conveying it best on paper.\nWhich raises an interesting question: what exactly do these choices sayabout us?\nMichael Cunningham, May 22, 12:44 PM ET:\nIt seems that we were, in fact, asked to nominate an American book. Yes?To which I can only say, re my observation about the absence of foreignauthors, Oops, never mind.\nAs Stephen points out, the request to name the \"greatest\" book of the last25 years is different from a request to name one's favorite. I wonder if asecond poll of the same people, one that asked only that we name the bookthat has meant the most to us, would produce different results. What to do,for instance, in my own case, about Nicholson Baker's \"The Mezzanine\"? Inthat book, Baker took a revolutionary contribution of the Modernists to itsremotest possible extreme. One of the most lasting changes wrought bywriters like Joyce and Woolf (and, okay, Flaubert and Zola and others whocame before) was their insistence on the epic qualities of the everyday.Flaubert, Joyce, Woolf et al demonstrated, finally and forever, thatliterature need not confine itself to heroic characters and quote unquote\"big themes,\" but rather that big themes were present in every single lifebeing lived; that part of the writer's job was to tease out the literaturefrom the life of a bored French housewife, a man living through an ordinaryday in Dublin, and a middle-aged woman planning a party.\nIn \"The Mezzanine,\" Baker tells the story of a man who breaks a shoelace andgoes to a mall to buy a new one. That's it. And yet in that short book heconveys a remarkable amount of truth and speculation about human life in anindustrialized, consumerist society. If an extra-terrestrial (one who couldconveniently read English) asked me for a few books that would convey asense of American life right now, \"The Mezzanine\" would be one of the booksI'd give him (or her, or whatever).\n\"The Mezzanine\" is a bold, profound, odd little book. Hugely important, atleast to me. Would I call it the best book of the last 25 years? No. Toolocal, too strange, too utterly itself. Am I sorry to see it omitted fromthe list of finalists? Yes.\nI teach in the MFA program at Brooklyn College. This year, the sevenadjunct professors and I all agreed to draw up and distribute to thestudents a compilation of our ten favorite books. Not our nominations for\"greatest\" books, but rather the books that had meant the most to us asreaders and writers, the ones from which we'd learned the most, the ones wekept going back to.\nThere were, of course, a number of books from distant times, but five out ofeight of us selected Alice Munro's \"Open Secrets,\" and four Denis Johnson's\"Jesus' Son.\" For whatever it's worth.\nMorris Dickstein May 22, 12:56 PM ET:\nDear Stephen, Jane, Michael, and Greg,\nI too had mixed feelings about making this kind of choice but I also knew I would thoroughly enjoy it. As a teenager I loved scanning lists for what to read next and loved making lists of books I'd already read. As I look at the covers of all these books displayed on a single page of the Book Review, I can't imagine that this survey would prove to be anything but a good thing: this is a rich assortment by any standard. An avid young reader looking for guidance could spend a profitable year or two reading through all these books.\nThe problem came down to the challenge of making only a single choice. Like Stephen I was hoping to head off \"Beloved,\" since I knew it would very likely win. It has a great subject, and it has Masterpiece written all over it. In the end I voted for a book which no one would mistake for the Great American Novel, \"Sabbath's Theater.\" The book was a deliberate provocation, a Lear-like cry of pain about aging, betrayal, and death but also an experiment to see whether you could still shock and offend people in the Anything Goes culture of the mid-1990\u2019s. My vote may have been a distant echo of Roth's own in-your-face gesture in writing it. But the book, some of which really was offensive, stuck in my mind more searingly than any other work of the period. That seemed more important than the built-in temptation to go for the big book.\nInterestingly, there is no such thing as the Great English Novel or the Great French Novel. English writers especially tend to produce solid, limited books like clockwork every other year, as if they were simply individual bricks in some larger edifice. Americans, on the other hand, have suffered but also profited from the Moby-Dick syndrome, the effort to sum up the whole meaning of the national experience in a single work. As Tony Scott points out in his fine essay, these books have often been part of a Gothic and symbolic tradition anchored not in realism but in archetypal characters and historical experiences. \"Beloved\" belongs to this tradition, which it also revises. But this ravenous appetite for significance can also be sharply limiting; this is something I'm sure we'll discuss later this week.\nBesides voting for \"Sabbath's Theater\" I added a list of runners-up that included many small but near-perfect works: Kennedy's \"Ironweed,\" Marilynne Robinson's \"Housekeeping\" and \"Gilead,\" Willam Maxwell's \"So Long, See You Tomorrow,\" DeLillo's \"White Noise\" (rather than \"Underworld\"), Richard Ford's story collection \"Rock Springs\" (rather than one of his novels), Paul Auster's quirky New York trilogy, Roth's most adventurous Zuckerman book, \"The Counterlife,\" Bellow's capacious \"Collected Stories,\" Carver's final collection, \"Where I'm Calling From,\" as well as two larger, more ambitious books in the mold of the ultimate short list: Robert Stone's \"A Flag for Sunrise\" and Russell Banks's \"Continental Drift.\" So I didn't shy away from the Great American Novel entirely. The one thing I can say definitively about this list is that I had great fun compiling it, since it led me to think about the fiction of the last quarter of a century in ways I hadn't done before. In that respect, the exercise was more than worthwhile.\nJane Smiley May 22, 3:37 PM ET:\nIf we take the \"finalists\" and \"Beloved\" together, I think we have a fairly conventional portrait of American concerns: racial relations, violence in the west (Cormac MacCarthy). White male sexual angst (Roth and Updike), and male views on urban chaos (Dilillo). In some sense, these are the subjects we are supposed to write about in order to claim largeness or importance, and sure enough, these are the subjects and the writers that commanded enough respect from their peers to get some votes.\nBut I think that the sociology of the American novel of the last twenty-five years has been against that grain. Instead of leaving their small cities and towns and foregathering in New York, where they could command the attention of the tastemakers and certifiers of \"greatness\", most baby boom writers went through writers' programs and were dispersed about the country. Lots of us went through the U of Iowa, others through Columbia, etc. Afterwards, we followed academic jobs to places like Michigan (Stuart Dybek), Wisconsin (Lorrie Moore), California (T.C. Boyle). The result, in terms of literary product has been unparalleled diversity of subject and setting, but also a dispersion \u2014 no sense of a central theme or a central place or a central intellectual set of all-American concerns. I remember when I wrote \"A Thousand Acres,\" my agent wondered if anyone would be interested in reading about farming. I was amazed, because, of course, what has happened to American farming since WW II has been of world-altering importance, but in fact, although \"A Thousand Acres\" is still read, it nevertheless does not seem central to the way readers and writers react to the world around them and who they have become. Industrial agriculture is killing us, but Swede Levov (to pick a convenient whipping boy) is considered more classic to our identity. To take another example, Louise Erdrich doesn't appear on the list. Her work persists in mining a very rich and strange seam of material \u2014 relations and interrelations between native Americans and Europeans at the outermost edges of the U.S. Our dispersion doesn't mean that our ambitions are small \u2014 I remember overhearing Thomas Sanchez and Ash Green in Ash's office in the early eighties sometime, discussing whether \"Mile Zero\" was \"The Great American Novel\". I laughed. But I wanted \"A Thousand Acres\" and \"Horse Heaven\" to qualify also. It seems to me that what each of us has tried to do, though, has been, not to reflect American consciousness as we saw it but more to wrench american consciousness in our direction \u2014 look at farming! Look at Native American life (Erdrich)! Look at missionaries in Africa (Barbara Kingsolver)! Look at autism (Sue Miller)! Look at illegal immigration (T.C. Boyle), and so on, in what I consider a quite delightful array. The evidence of the Times list is that we have not succeeded, but I would suggest that the map of America and of American consciousness has been filled in as never before.\nHowever, broad isn't as easy to comprehend as typical, and items on a broad board exist primarily in relationship to one another \u2014 no single one sticks out as essential. I actually think the last twenty-five years has been a wonderful period for the novel \u2014 many strange and delightful works have been written, but in dispersing our subject matter, in some sense we have also dispersed our audience, and our relationship with one another as artists and colleagues. We have, in some sense, sacrificed, not the quest for high art, but the quest for the reputation of high art. No one at several magazines in New York is certifying us and our works as books that every self-respecting intellectual must read in order to understand the culture. The culture, and being cultured, isn't cohesive in that way any more. Literature is more one-on-one, writer-to-reader. My idea of a successful book tour is twenty lively readings at twenty thriving bookstores in twenty cities, not, as in the movie \"Capote\", a star-studded reading in New York that shapes the reception of a book like \"In Cold Blood\" into a fairly self contained literary world.\nIs this a rant? It isn't meant to be.\nGregory Cowles May 22, 6:33 PM ET:\nI've struggled a little with how to frame the discussion of \"Beloved,\" since you've already expressed such divergent viewpoints.\nJane, who voted for it, suggests the book's power has to do with Toni Morrison's attempt to marshal storytelling to reclaim a lost history, to recast America's self-mythology. Stephen, who didn't vote for it, implies in his Slate essay that the reason for its prominence is its extreme inward focus and its \"psychobiology,\" which seems like a short hop from \"psychobabble.\" And Morris, while conceding \"it has a great subject and it has Masterpiece written all over it,\" also cast his vote for something else \u2014 like Stephen, in an explicit attempt to stop \"Beloved\" from winning. Is there any way to reconcile these opinions in a way that makes sense of \"Beloved\" as a work of art?\nSo I turn to Michael, who observed that the survey's results say as much about us and our moment as they do about the inherent value of the winning books. Literary culture right now is emphatically not preoccupied with race: as Michael notes, the list of finalists is dominated by white men. So in that sense the choice of \"Beloved\" might seem surprising, despite A. O. Scott's observation that it has entered the curriculum and the canon more thoroughly than any of the other winners. Does its victory mean that race remains a more dominant theme than the rest of the list would suggest? (And if so, are the other finalists the real surprise here?) Or is there another reason that \"Beloved\" is the king of the hill at this time, in this place? What does its selection say about our culture and our literary moment?\nI'm fascinated by how a discussion featuring two prominent novelists hasn't yet talked aesthetics!! Isn't this what makes our concerns so parochial in time?? In fifty or a hundred years, who will believe we talked race, class, gender, geography, and even autism, before mentioning good writing? (Why should we be recurring so frequently to the very tribal categories marketers and politicans use, to manipulate our consumer preferences?) Let me make myself plain, before I get accused of something I emphatically don't believe: I think that asking who has access to high literacy, and according to what set of conventions and prejudices and accreted social inequities, is as important as asking which American novels are great, and why. But the answer to one shouldn't dictate the answer to the other. If we agree to use evaluative language (\"best\"), based on aesthetic judgments (which we don't have to do), then at some point shouldn't we move away from power questions \u2014 do white male critics necessarily favor white male writers? \u2014 and ask, Why does (or doesn't) \"American Pastoral\" represent a legitimate claim on my attention? (Jane \u2014 I'm so curious to hear more about your reaction to this book \u2014 have you finished it? And: Are you a fan of Roth's in general?)\nNow, I happen to be a.) a white, allegedly heterosexual male, b.) a baseball fan and c.) a devoted paranoiac, but I'm pretty sure that my love of Delillo finds its origin in something slightly less specific: his bitter, cussed originality, his vision of America as a serpentine fantasy generated by \"men alone in rooms,\" and his ability to write a radioactive English sentence. \"Underworld\" isn't his best book, but it is his big book, and hence my strategic vote.\nA theme all of us have touched upon, and one given an elegant airing in Meghan O'Rourke's recent Slate essay, is why the emphasis on size? Of all the critical preoccupations that may slide into historical irrelevancy, isn't this the most likely? The quirk of this parlor game is to handicap some distance future, but don't we all sort of agree, that the yoking of the big (ambitious, socially important) novel with the honorific \"best\" may turn out to have been a weak impulse? (This is the tense one is forced to use: the future pluperfect optative.) So think of \"Gatsby\" and \"Housekeeping\" one day being syllabus staples, and \"Underworld\" and \"Beloved\" being curiosities, like Longfellow?\nHi to all \u2014\nSo, here we go into \"degustibus-non-est-disputandum\" territory. My first premise about what we like or don't like (or respond to or don't respond to) is that our affinities aren't necessarily reasonable or based in any sort of objective standard of aesthetic quality. They are more on the order of crushes or friendships \u2014 there is something about a novel that is perceived emotionally and that draws us into willingly suspending disbelief or not. Arguing about which novel is best, or even about the virtues and faults of a particular novel is like arguing about whether your sister should be dating that guy \u2014 basically, the arguments don't matter while the sister still feels drawn to him. There are lots of supposed great novels that I just can't enjoy \u2014 \"The Great Gatsby\" is one. I have a \"reason\" \u2014 it is that none of the characters or themes or incidents seem to me to be developed \u2014 rather, Fitzgerald seems to me to be talking about them at length, but more as a way of exercising his eloquence than as a way of exploring or revealing the situation \u2014 but really, my reason is a made-up justification of an already formed lack of affinity.\nThis sounds as though I am dismissing esthetics and criticism, and maybe I am, but the upshot is what I consider the greatest virtue of the novel \u2014 a reader's relationship to it is utterly private and utterly free. When the reader is reading the novel, she and the author are partners in its creation \u2014 they are the novelist's words, but what is being created is in the reader's mind, and she can accept and enjoy or disagree with and reject that thing with utter freedom.\nThe other thing going on here is that a novel is more than a piece of good writing \u2014 it is a set of characters, incidents, themes, and setting, plus the writing, all structured in a meaningful way through the talent of the author. Plenty of novelists are good at some of these aspects and not others \u2014 I can hardly think of a novelist who is good at all of them. I might respond to a certain style or certain insights into character and not especially care about the themes, and therefore disagree with another reader who finds those themes elementary or unappealing. The result of all these compromises (which are essential to the novel) is that some of us thought \"Beloved\" was the obvious choice and others wanted to stop it. That part is what I think was great \u2014 that's the horseracing part, the tout part, the odds-on part. And, of course, \"Beloved\" was the favorite, having won the Nobel Triple Crown. It's always okay when the favorite sails to an easy victory, but it isn't very exciting.\nThe main thing I enjoy about \"Beloved\" is the slyness of Morrison's structure. She presents us with several dramatic events, including a ghost, the deaths of children, a frightening and unsuccessful escape. She gives us an appealing character, in the teen-aged protagonist, Denver, and she makes interesting and sometimes surprising connections between the past and the present. The novel is suspenseful, but in the end, the suspense is not about what is happening and what has happened, but about what the events mean \u2014 so the suspense is thematic, not dramatic. That seems to me to be hard to pull off and tricky. Novels of ideas don't hold up past their moments very well (\"The Unbearable Lightness\" of Being is an example, I think, of one that hasn't held up), but \"Beloved\" has held up because the ideas are about personal things like memory and feeling, rather than about political theory. It seemed at the time to be telling us something new about America, and, for me, it still seems to be telling us something that we need to know. The bottom-line, though, is that as I was reading \"Beloved,\" it satisfied me. I labelled the reasons for my satisfaction afterward \u2014 it intimidated me, it daunted me, I could not dismiss it. It was artfully constructed and wise. When I had to think of one that did all of those things, that was the one that first occurred to me.\nTomorrow \u2014 Jane trashes Philip Roth! (Well, maybe not.)\nStephen Metcalf, May 23, 2:48 PM ET:\nA question for Morris: you're both a critic and a teacher. You've written as astutely as anyone going about the condition of the American novel. Does this take its shape at all from the experience of teaching it? My sense, as a one time college teacher, was that some students needed to be made reverent in the face of literature \u2014 they badly needed to be awed by its especial greatness \u2014 while others, just as badly, needed literature to be demystified, to see that there were only differences in degree between a \"Simpsons\" episode, say, and \"As You Like It.\" (The challenge was addressing both groups at once.) Anyhow \u2014 have you taught \"Beloved\"? Or Roth? I like Roth (with reservations) and don't like Morrison (with many reservations), but as a teacher would never signal this to a classroom. And furthermore, as a teacher would challenge, say, a feminist who wanted to dismiss Swede Levov out of hand, and challenge a jock who thought Morrison was girly psychobabble.\nMorris Dickstein May 23, 3:33 PM ET:\n(This was written before I saw Steve's and Jane's new posts, which I hope torespond to later.)\nI think I can best grapple with the questions Greg raises about \"Beloved\" bytaking off fromJane's interesting post about why some novels rather than others take holdand become \"must-read\" markers of cultural importance. If there has been a big dispersal inthe subjects and settingsin recent fiction, it's probably not because writers have been scattered touniversities across theland, becoming regionalists in spite of themselves. The best writing comesfrom the deep places ofthe heart and influences laid in early in life. Writers have always beeneager to escape the townsand families that formed them, only to find that this was their best (andsometimes their only)material. Why haven't the books Jane mentions, so rich in socialinformation, made this list? Not,I think, because they haven't been blessed by the attention of New Yorkcritics, but for moreintrinsic reasons. Here I'll try to answer Steve's challenge to take up theaesthetic reasons fordeclaring any novel one of the \"best.\"\nThe most striking feature of the five books on the short list is what theyare not: first, as we'vealready said, they are not small, perfect books like Marilynne Robinson'stwo novels. But, exceptfor the Updike tetralogy, they're also not large, circumstantial works inthe tradition of Balzac,Trollope, Tolstoy, or Dreiser, books that build up a world, brick by brick,and allow us to inhabitit as we're reading. Instead they're highly metaphorical works, historicalparables that are sharplyfocused and almost unbearably intensified. \"Beloved,\" \"Blood Meridian,\" and\"AmericanPastoral\" are intricately researched historical meditations drenched inviolence and written inwhite-hot anger. They read more like essences, distillations, than like lifeitself. Their subjects arenot so much actual people as the traumas of slavery, the bloody history ofthe Southwest, and thenear-demented youth rebellions of the late sixties and seventies.\"Underworld\" too is about theculture of an era, the cold war years, more than about any individual lives.The Rabbit novelsimmerse us more in the world of ordinary living, decade by decade, but whenpublished as a singlevolume in 1995, they too became historical novels filled with deliberatelyrepresentativeexperiences, with Rabbit as a modern Everyman.\nThese big cultural subjects, heightened (especially by Morrison, Roth, andMcCarthy) into punchyparables, give these books the power that explains why they becomeconversation pieces, objectsof heated controversy, and strong contenders for a place at the top of ourlist. Not only doeseveryone read them; they stick in the mind as moments of nationalself-examination. But thesebooks are also damaged by their large ambitions and by the short cuts andelisions that help thembuild up that power. Can I be the only one who thinks that Morrison was ather best in two small,pitch-perfect novels, \"The Bluest Eye\" and \"Sula,\" written before herincursions into magicalrealism? Was Stanley Crouch the only reader who saw \"Beloved\" as a\"blackface holocaustnovel,\" at its best with small scenes and peripheral characters, sometimesbeautifully written buttoo often trite, rhetorical, and sentimental? In his recent piece in Slate,Steve describes how muchof the larger experience of slavery and race is left out of the novel. PaulD.'s experiences on thechain gang and as a runaway slave help open up the book, but by and largeMorrison's charactersare too representative to have any individual reality. This was emphaticallynot true of itspredecessor, Ellison's \"Invisible Man,\" because the anonymous protagonist,typical as he's meantto be, is deeply grounded in Ellison's own life - in Oklahoma, at Tuskegee,in 1930's Harlem, andwith the Communist Party.\nDespite the quality of their writing, 'Blood Meridian\" and \"AmericanPastoral\" are weakened bythe short cuts they take to achieve intensity and convey some large swath ofthe Americanexperience. In the way it consciously demythologizes the West, \"BloodMeridian\" is a betterversion of HBO's endlessly sordid \"Deadwood.\" Roth's crazy, violent kids areclumsy caricaturesof the young radicals of the period, and Swede, the Good Father, is scarcelymore credible. Tooblatantly, the book aims to show how the home-and-family forties hatched theapocalyptic sixties,how comfortable, well-meaning liberal parents raised radical children. Onlythe grandfather,whose life is grounded in the realistic details of the glove business andthe economic struggles ofhis generation, is an utterly convincing, acutely observed character.\nMy argument is that the books on the short list, while often powerful, mayhave gotten there forthe wrong reasons, as much out of their weaknesses as their strengths. WhenI first read\"Beloved\" I was stymied by the oblique narrative, which constantly withholdsmore than itreveals. From the first paragraph onward, it made me feel alternately stupidand angry. Thewithholding was deliberate, since its gave the book's horrific subject asense of mystery andrevelation. But like Steve I've just reread it, and now it feels too simple,too obvious andconfined, fueled by a lust for significance unimpeded by any patience withincremental detail, whatHenry James liked to call \"preparation.\" Its scrambled action and themelodrama of its backstory -a mother's gruseome murder of her child - now seem more geared for criticalunpacking than forgenuine revelation. It uses the technique of Faulkner - so often fatal tolater writers - to achievewhat Harold Bloom might describe as a weak revision of \"Uncle Tom's Cabin.\"\nMichael Cunningham, May 23, 7:15 PM ET:\nI find myself in Dallas, a block away from the Grassy Knoll, with a free 20minutes. And really, what better place to think about where and howAmerican literature overlaps American history, and whether or how much theoverlap matters.Hm. \"Greatness.\" The local versus the monumental. And right, what aboutaesthetics?The jury did, in fact, focus on Big Books, Big Themes, and I like, verymuch, the idea \u2014 we could call it the certainty \u2014 that the future willreduce much of what we currently revere to footnotes, and elevate books weregard as minor, or ignore entirely, to icons. That's always the way, isn'tit? \"Moby Dick\" Syndrome didn't come around in time to do Melville any good \u2014 he was pilloried for failing to produce another \"Typee.\" \"The Great Gatsby\"was a dud, critically and commercially. If history is any indication, wecan assume that every generation is wrong about its enduring works of art.We are all, it seems, in one way or another, trying to anticipate the waysin which the list will prove to be wrong.As I probably more or less said already, I suspect we're seeing a shift awayfrom the monolithic ur-book toward a more motley assortment of books thatbite off smaller bits of the world but chew them more exquisitely. We maynot live in the best of all worlds to date but we certainly live in thebiggest, and I suspect the books we write, and the books we revere, arebeginning to reflect that. A similar jury 25 years from now could justflatly refuse to name a greatest book.Still, old habits die hard, and when I contemplated my choices (I ended upwith DeLillo's \"White Noise,\" by the way), I was thinking in terms of booksthat best witnessed and recorded their times. History is written by thevictors, as the clich\u00e9 goes, and novelists may be many things but they areseldom victors. I look to books of the past to provide (among other things)a sense of the world in which they were written, and what it was actuallylike to live in them. A \"great\" novel, then, traces the interstices betweenpersonal experience and the social, political, economic and etc.This is open to question. I do realize, however, in retrospect, that I wasthinking along those lines. Not only what will be most moving to thereaders of the future, but what will be most illuminating and useful.I'd be more prone to go on at length about aesthetics if I felt that any ofthe five finalists, and most if not all of the runnners-up, had sacrificedaesthetics in the name of their larger themes. I don't. Whatever theirshortcomings, all five seem to me to be beautifully and rigorously written,each in a voice that could only have come from the writer in question.Morris \u2014 a perfect novel? Is there such a creature? I've always felt thatpart of what's compelling about any ambitious book is the disparity betweenits author's gifts and the vaster, more marvelous, unwrite-able book he orshe had in mind. Some books are of course better than others, but I've notonly never read a perfect one, I'm not sure I'd care to.Time to go do a reading. I'd so much rather talk about this...\nGregory Cowles May 24, 9:52 AM ET:\nI do want to nudge the conversation to Roth (how couldI not, with Jane's cheeky promise of trash talk?) butbefore we get there I wonder if I can pin Morris downabout the idea that \"the best writing comes from thedeep places of the heart and influences laid in earlyin life.\" To me this comes awfully close to endorsingthe argument that fiction should be autobiographical \u2014 especially if you pair it with your observationthat \"Invisible Man\" hews closely to the facts ofEllison's life, and is a stronger book because of it. It's true that writers (like all people) have theirobsessions, and it's true that many of thoseobsessions reach back to childhood: Philip Roth couldbe Exhibit A, as could Updike or the DeLillo of\"Underworld.\" Still, I suspect that's not an argumentyou'd care to make without some careful qualifications \u2014 not least because it seems to exclude so many kindsof writing: the purely historical novel, the sweepingsocial novel, the formal experimentalism of aBarthelme or a Gaddis or a John Crowley (any of whommight plausibly have ended up on our long list).\nIf I had to guess at your reply, I'd guess that youwould say this: of course fiction doesn't need to beexplicitly autobiographical, and in fact theautobiographical impulse leads a lot of writers to indulge their worst instincts in the hope of becoming the next Roth or Updike or DeLillo. Instead (you'dcontinue) all forms are open to all writers, but theywill only produce their best work if they can tap intothat part of themselves that reaches back to theirobsessions. So Marilynne Robinson can write a\"perfect\" historical novel that addresses slavery andabolition and violence, because in filtering itthrough her very personal interests in family andreligion and moral absolutism she has brought JohnAmes fully to life. But Toni Morrison (you'd argue)has failed at the same goal because she hasn't madeher characters specific enough. In the end, this maylead us right back to Steve's question aboutaesthetics. Then again, most things probably do. Andhappily, I don't need to guess at your response,because you're right here to provide it.\nNow back to Roth, and to my designated role asmoderator. I'm interested in the fact that Jane hassingled Swede Levov out for criticism, because in someways \"American Pastoral\" seems an atypical Roth book \u2014 here's a novelist whose whole M.O. has been to be aprovocateur, to challenge social conventions and rageagainst our complicity in enforcing them. (What was itMorris said? He voted for the \"deliberateprovocation\" of \"Sabbath's Theater\" partly as \"adistant echo of Roth's own in-your-face gesture inwriting it\"?) Yet \"American Pastoral\" is the book ofhis to rank highest, with its sympathetic portrait ofthe bourgeois Swede and its acknowledgment of thebrutal havoc that knee-jerk rebellion can wreak. Did it rank so high just because it has the word \"American\" in thetitle, as one juror said? And does \"American Pastoral,\" along with the books that followed it, suggest that Roth is reallymellowing? Jane, you seem to think the answer is no,so jump in whenever you're ready. You've had todefend Toni Morrison; now put the Roth fans on thedefensive. And I wonder how all of you reacted toseeing six different Roth novels among the finalists:is Tony Scott right that we have a \"best writer\" whodidn't happen to write the \"best book\" of the last 25 years?\nJane Smiley May 24, 9:55 AM ET:\nMorris's entry of Tuesday reminds of something I noticed when I was reading the novels for \"Thirteen Ways\" \u2014 that the form of the novel has always seemed to alternate (or fail to decide) between \"perfect\" and \"abundant.\" Certain novelists seem determined to get everything in \u2014 Zola and Dickens are good examples. They see their job as an expansive one, processing the chaos and abundance of moderrn urban life and producing a facsimile of that, sometimes not very well-shaped but always rushing forward, incorporating more. Other novelists \u2014 maybe Morrison in \"Sula\" or, obviously, Jane Austen, see their job as making a particular object that is right in every way, and perfectly constructed to produce a certain effect. Henry James is interesting in this regard because he openly expressed a fear of what he called \"the developments\" \u2014 the possibility that the materials of his novels would get out of control and lose esthetic shape. And then, when E.M. Forster came to consider \"The Ambassadors\" in \"Aspects of the Novel\", he declared that James' novel method failed, precisely because he had to leave so much life out! Your faults and your virtues are always the same!\nAnyway, the abundance that I see in \"American Pastoral\" is not an abundance of character or setting, but an abundance of detail and language. Gloves, cows, the Miss American contest \u2014 Roth gives you the sense that he is considering them as they have never been considered before, that, just as with auto engine repair in \"The Grapes of Wrath\", a reader could take \"American Pastoral\" and go out and open a glove factory or buy a Simmental bull. With regard to the best novel competition, I do think that the chilly and large are more likely to win over the intimate and perfect because \"greatness\" in the novel seems always to be about that idiosyncratic ability of the novel to be abundant, to expand and expand and still stay more or less in the reader's mind as a whole.\nSo, now I am off to lunch with David Lodge (I am on a book tour in the UK), and I will ask him for his vote, and report back later today.\nDear Jane, Steve, Michael, and Greg,\nSo many issues, so little time. Luckily, Greg has beautifully answered his own question about thepersonal sources of powerful writing, using \"Gilead\" as a great example. It's the feelings thatcount, not the facts of the writer's background. I have a long essay in \"A Mirror in the Roadway\"attacking autobiographical fiction when it's too literal, centering on a protagonist virtuallyindistinguishable from the writer. One of the keys to Roth's late work, beginning with \"TheGhost Writer\" but really coming into focus in \"The Counterlife,\" is his play on the invented andthe autobiographical. Roth had been accused so often of being unable to make anything up thathe made that interplay between fact and fiction part of his subject. This was why Zuckermanbecame so important to him as an alter ego. He thus created his own brand of metafiction beforetaking it to ingenious excess in \"Operation Shylock.\"\nBecause Roth had exploited this playful and contingent vein so well, I agree with Jane that theturn to a minute realism in \"American Pastoral\" was a surprise. On second thought, though, itwas exactly right: In a book that idealized the postwar years of his youth and demonized thewilder doings of the sixties - which he once said had inspired \"Portnoy's Complaint\" - he alsoreverted to the aesthetic of those earlier years, with its distrust of ego and its fidelity to socialdetail. This vivid mirroring of life's surfaces is what Jane appreciates in the book, just as sheappreciates the technical feat of the narrative in \"Beloved.\" This is a practitioner's point of view;it helps explain why the two novelists on the panel like \"Beloved\" better than the two critics. Asfiction writers they admire the craftsmanship, and this helps them connect with the book in waysthat I can't. Strangely, I agree with nearly all the positive things Jane says about both \"Beloved\"and \"American Pastoral.\" They're just not the primary things for me as I read; they don't createthe personal affinity that Jane rightly feels is the key to our literary judgments.\nLike the novelist, the critic must write from the deep places in the heart, while also being alert tolanguage and technique. This is why I could never teach in the missionary way that Steve hasmentioned. In teaching I usually select books for which I feel that mysterious affinity, and I hopemy enthusiasm is infectious, but I could never keep myself from drawing attention to where theymight not come off. I don't see how teaching literature is any different from critical writing. Tomake it work, you have to put your whole response to a book, almost your whole being, on theline. About once every four years I offer a graduate seminar on postwar American fiction, usuallytilted towards the earlier years, because I find them so rich. A few years ago I thought of endingthe course with \"Beloved,\" just to force myself to reread it and see whether I'd been fair to it. Butwhen I presented the syllabus on the first day, hoping for suggestions and objections, one studentpiped up that he didn't relish spending two hours talking about that book. I'm not sure if hedisliked it or simply was wearied from hearing too much of it in other classes. So we settled on\"The Bluest Eye\" instead, which worked wonderfully and confirmed my feeling for the earlyMorrison over her later, more ambitious work.\nNow it's become close to impossible to cover postwar fiction is a single course: it's been oversixty years. I know that both Jane and Michael feel that the last 25 years have been rich ones;their contributions helped make it so. To me the earlier period - from the mid-40s to the mid-70s- feels stronger, a time when the novel was more central to American culture. If the current pollhad covered the whole time since the war, I think \"Invisible Man\" would still have won. With thenotable exception of Roth, the writers whose careers span both eras did the best work in theearlier years, not only because they were young and fresh but because novelists then were culturalheroes on a par with later rock stars and movie directors. Has literary fiction receded into thebackground, becoming the concern of a much more specialized audience? Perhaps this question,which was raised by Tony Scott in his essay, is something we ought to discuss.\nJust back from Dallas, and better able to pursue my true calling which, atthe moment, is this conversation.\nMorris \u2014 it didn't occur to me that you were endorsing the autobiographicalnovel when you said that \"the best writing comes from the deep places of theheart and influences laid early in life.\" I agree entirely that the bestwriting arises from an urgent connection between writer and subject. Thisis, I think, what's singular and exciting about postwar American fiction \u2014 its assumption that novels if they're any good are about matters of profoundand personal concern to their authors. I've been in Europe a fair amountover the last year, and I keep hearing, in country after country, thatthey're more interested in American fiction than they are in their own.Specifically (I heard this from Italians, the Spanish, and yes, even theFrench) that the work their own novelists are doing is either cerebral andchilly or too dreadfully centered on the difficulties and philosophicalramifications of being a young novelist living in a crappy apartment andetc. If my experience is any indication, European readers and critics areas jacked up about American fiction right now as Americans were aboutforeign films in the sixties. They love the heat and buzz of Americanfiction. They love the very same high dudgeon, the insistence on connectingthe personal and the global, that we've been talking about. There is, itseems, at least until further notice, a unique American propensity fortelling a good story that places its characters in a larger context whilerespecting their obdurate, complex humanness.\nI suspect it's true, too, that novelists \u2014 this novelist, anyway \u2014 aresuckers for sentences in ways critics may not be. For me, it gets down toan almost embarrassingly simple, quotidian fact \u2014 I know how hard it is towrite even one good sentence. Show me a book full of them, and I'm ready toforgive all kinds of lapses in narrative method, consistency of theme andcharacter, and etc.\nI don't feel that the writers about whom we're talking did their best workearly in their careers. They may have done their most flawless, gem-likewriting then, but I'm thrilled by the expansion of vision we see as we movefrom \"Sula\" to \"Beloved,\" \"Portnoy's Complaint\" to \"American Pastoral\" (it's true,I'll admit, that someone once said to me that if you put the word \"American\"in your title, your approval rating and sales automatically double), The\"Centaur\" and the Rabbit books, \"Ratner's Star\" and \"Underworld,\" and \"Outer Dark\"and \"Blood Meridian.\"\nThis is probably a sentiment more likely to be expressed by a 53-year-oldthan a 23-year-old, but I for one am not sorry to see that the winner andfour finalists are all mature writers. One looks of course for the newgeneration of reckless young literary criminals to clear the decks, scrapethe barnacles off the hull, and all, but at the same time the implicationthat a great, enduring novel is more likely to be written by someone who'sbeen writing and living for decades \u2014 that writers may know more aboutwriting and the world as they age \u2014 is heartening, and never more so (hesaid geriatrically) in an age that tends to value youth above all else.\nJane \u2014 I like, very much, the distinction you make between abundance andperfection, and our tendency to consider the former greater than the latter.I'm even going to quote you: \"The novel seems always to be about thatidiosyncratic ability of the novel to be abundant, to expand and expand andstill stay more or less in the reader's mind as a whole.\" Yeah.\nA little more on the subject of perfection. Imperfection has always seemed,to me, integral to what's compelling about any novel, large or small. Ithink that much of what occurs between a writer and reader centers on whatit's probably better to call insufficiencies. A writer always has a betterbook in mind than what he or she is able to get down on paper, even if whatgets down on paper turns out pretty damned well. What's floating around inthe cartoon balloon over one's head is always grander, deeper, funnier,darker, more human and profound that what one can possibly write. And Isuspect readers, the readers in whom I'm interested at any rate, arelooking for a book too great to be written \u2014 the Book of Love, the Book ofRage and Fire, whatever. Every writer is putting down his or her piece of astory too vast and complicated to be told; the whole human story, frombeginning to end, the story in God's mind. The inevitable insufficienciesgive the reader room in which to imagine his or her own version of thebigger story, the one no novel can possibly encompass. It's part of thecompact between writers and readers: Here's a fragment of what we bothknow. Take whatever I'm able to tell you, and run with it.\nI could say, then, that I'm a member of the Size Queen School. The bigger abook's ambitions, the more glaring its lacks. It's easier to get close tothe bullseye from a distance of twenty feet than it is from two hundred. Inexpanding their purviews, these five writers agree to make bigger, moreobvious mistakes. As they must. I love them for what they're trying to doalmost as much as I love them for what they've actually been able to do.\nSince we're on Roth at the moment, that seems true of \"American Pastoral.\"Bigger, more generous (but never sentimental), wildly ambitious, and yes,full of information about glove-making and bull-buying. More flawed, too,by definition. To my mind what we're reading as we read an author's workover a period of time is his or her ongoing attempt to learn to write abetter novel, an attempt that ideally goes on all the writer's life. Onedies still learning how to write a better novel.\nAnd it's true, I think, that some writers produce a singular masterwork andothers should be taken in aggregate, Roth being a member of the lattergroup. As are Bellow, Oates, Barthelme, and Vollman, to name a few.\nMister big mouth will now return to his other, less compelling duties. Jane \u2014 what did David Lodge say?\nOh, Mister Big Mouth isn't quite done yet. This is so much more fun than,you know, writing a novel.\nI don't agree that the American novel \u2014 or American fiction, at any rate \u2014 had its halcyon days between the mid-40's to the mid-70's. I think we'rebetter able to see the magnitude of certain books written then, becausewe've had a few decades to digest them. I could name a number of bookswritten since the mid-70's that strike me as at least potentially enduring,some of which are among the 17 runners up and some of which are not.Johnson's \"Jesus' Son,\" Robinson's \"Gilead,\" Joanna Scott's \"The Mannikin,\"Franzen's \"The Corrections,\" Oates' \"Because It Is Bitter and Because It Is MyHeart,\" Gaitskill's \"Because They Wanted To,\" William Gibson's \"Udoru,\" Baker's\"The Mezzanine,\" Ben Marcus' \"The Age of Wire and String,\" Eugenides' \"Middlesex,\"and Chabon's \"Cavalier and Klay,\" to name a few.\nThese are all books by writers under 60 (possible exception of Oates), andto me all portend still greater books to come. I teach a graduate course atBrooklyn College, and these are all books known and loved by my students,who will of course be among the people who decide, in the future, whatmatters more and what less. Neither they nor I feel that we're living andwriting in a fallow period.\nThese are, in fact, hard times for serious fiction, but it continues to beproduced. If anything, writers are more rock star-like now. They (we) aremarketed that way. Go to a standing-room-only reading by Dave Eggers, ifyou're lucky enough to get in at all, or watch people waiting in line fortwo hours to have a book signed by Michael Chabon. Look at the furorFranzen kicked up when he said something mean about Oprah. These are not, Ithink, responses to practitioners of a dying or marginal art form.\nHi, Everyone \u2014\nThank you, Michael, for your big mouth \u2014 it's one of your most appealing characteristics!\nI am more or less a Roth virgin, I have to admit \u2014 I haven't read any Roth since \"Portnoy's Complaint,\" which I was too immature to understand. So, I have arrived at page 213 of \"American Pastoral,\" and the author has not persuaded me to willingly suspend disbelief. As an author, I would have to say, this is the author's failure. He has neither made the Swede plausible enough nor interesting enough for me to want to accept him. He seems like an abstract construct, and in fact, the narrator, Zuckerman, admits on page 88 that the bulk of the novel to follow is a set of imaginings within imaginings \u2014 the Swede himself has died, his brother has come and gone, and Zuckerman has no way to understand the Swede's experience except by conjuring it out of his own sensibility and attributing it to the Swede. In addition to that, he remarks that because the Swede was a preternaturally decent person \"It doesn't matter if he was the cause of anything. He makes himself responsible anyway.\" In this introduction to the rest of the novel, Roth indicates that in Zuckerman's view (a view based on no evidence), the Swede is a victim of the bombing, a figure of innocence. I will go so far as to say that Zuckerman seems to be promising that the Swede may not feel aggrieved, but Zuckerman plans to feel aggrieved on his behalf. The very next paragraph is about how Zuckerman imagines the Swede and his daughter Merry in the car on the way home from the beach. She is eleven. She invites her father to give her an erotic kiss, and, after some hemming and hawing, he does so. A few years later, after the bombing, he asks himself if this erotic kiss might have been the cause of it all.\nI have to say that I did not buy this. I didn't buy Zuckerman's right to extrapolate the Swede's inner life from his own, and when I read about the kiss, I actually asked my partner if he thought such a thing was plausible for even a highly-sexed father, and he said he didn't. Now, the fact is that every piece of fiction makes some leap of implausibility that dares the reader to buy it \u2014 obviously, Beloved makes a lot of them. But to my mind, Morrison's form (the ghost story) and her style invite the reader to keep going out of mere suspense but also out of a sense that where we are going is somewhere significant. I willingly suspend disbelief in \"Beloved\". In \"American Pastoral\", the combination of Zuckerman's aggrieved, narcississtic tone and any actual evidence from the mouth of Swede Levov himself prevents me from being very interested in the Swede or the point Roth wants to make.\nAnd more than anything, Roth wants to make a point rather than tell a story. The story is evidence for the point. He doesn't even want the story to develop as much as he wants to develop his argument, so there are few scenes and almost no dialogue. The author is always there, directing the narrative and telling the reader what to think. As I dimly remember, this is what annoyed me about \"Portnoy's Complaint.\"\nBetween page 88 and page 213, I continue to not accept Zuckerman's idea of the Swede's reality. Zuckerman continues to portray the Swede and a big, thick, victimized guy who learns nothing from his experience, only endures it. And while the Swede endures it, Zuckerman rages for him. This is not my experience of adults. Life long learning is more the norm, as Oprah might say. For one thing, Zuckerman ridicules absolutely Merry, her colleagues, and any ideas they might have about America, but because of the narrow focus of the novel, his evidence for the wrongness of her views remains (at p. 213) rhe Swede \u2014 good and dumb. This seems to me to be a willful and aggrieved blindness (or blinkered-ness) on Zuckerman's part \u2014 reducing fifty years of American foreign policy in the third world to the the fact that the Swede and his father made a good life in Newark until those-who-shall-remain-nameless wrecked it. Does the Swede not read the papers? Zuckerman would have me believe that the Swede is so grandiose in his conception of himself that everything that happens in the world is important only in the way it affects him. By extrapolation, I am supposed to believe that this is the way humans work. But that goes against my own experience, and I don't accept it.\nSo, I have not willingly suspended disbelief in either Roth's argument or his story. But I am still reading. I enjoy his style, and he has two hundred pages to persuade me.\nSo: three days down, two to go, and you've touched on a lot. Big books vs. small, regionalism vs. a central literary culture, the risks and rewards of ambition, and (just in case we forget why we're here) the pure joy of discovering a book we love, what Jane described as the emotional reaction that precedes the critical reaction. Even the fiction writer as rock star! (And who could doubt it of Michael and Jane, checking in with us as they tour the world?)\nYou've also discussed the specifics of the list: Morrison's technical virtuosity, Roth's reach, DeLillo's radioactive sentences. And by all means let's continue: let's hear your takes on Updike, McCarthy and the rest. I'm reluctant to interrupt your rough-and-tumble, since there's little enough time left as it is. But I do want to return for a moment to the generational divide that Tony Scott found so significant. Michael, you applaud the dominance of the older writers and suggest it has to do with simple seniority: practice makes \u2014 well, maybe imperfect, since you argue so eloquently for the role of imperfection in a book's greatness. Jane, you point to dispersal and diversity among the baby boomers as a possible reason for their underrepresentation here: a demographic explanation for what is after all a demographic phenomenon. But I wonder if there's also a larger cultural explanation: what do you make of Tony's claim that the boomers in general reject ambitious sprawl in favor of diffident precision? Is he right? And, if so, are we seeing something from the culture at large reflected in its literature? I'm especially curious to hear whether Jane and Michael, as baby boomer novelists, will find common ground here with Stephen and Morris, as critics.\nThe discussion has thrived so without me, I hesitate to rejoin it. I'm fascinated by the hope Europeans place in the American novel, and heartened by Michael's faith in younger writers, who were underrepresented on the list. I will note that the major figures honored by the list were all born before the advent of TV. The serious novel may increasingly become a boutique item, but then, who cares? What the sensibility of the lone provacateur has to disclose to a culture given over to the media event can only rise in value.\nA Roth virgin might not do well to start with \"American Pastoral.\" The gateway drug for the later Roth, in my estimation, remains the exquisite \"Ghostwriter,\" in which Roth pioneers the technique of Zuckerman, already his double, creating an alternate reality into which he projects himself. Roth, we should mention, is the real \"winner\" of the survey, with several titles winning several votes; had he not split the vote with himself, he would have won by a considerable margin. I've just come from a lengthy discussion on the virtues and demerits of Roth, and certainly, he at his worst can be an egomanaical caricature, for whom the reality of other minds, as the philosophers put it, is often tenuous at best. But like any writer, he possesses strengths and weaknesses. It would have struck Austen's literary contemporaries as insane, that \"painting a miniature on two inches of ivory\" would one day hold such a large claim to enduring greatness; and similarly, it's hard to know what truth, useful to posterity, has been disclosed in Roth's self-imprisonment in his own petty ego. But the man can write, huh?\nFinally, with Austen now on the brain, I'm interested in how little American writers as a rule do manners, so to speak. We like allegories and symbols more as a rule. Is it because we don't have manners, against an old world background of feudal distinction? Or is it just that we downgrade those books \u2014 and I guess I'm thinking of \"The Corrections\" and \"Independence Day\" \u2014 which are more intricate in their social observations, and less overtly grand in their symbolic aspirations?\nWell. So many things . . .\nIt seems to me that the fundamental question when reading a book of serious ambitions, as all five finalists clearly are, is not so much whether the book has flaws but how much or how little its flaws matter to us as readers. Yes, Roth can be condescending to his characters. Morrison can get a little too oracular. DeLillo can run brilliant but cold \u2014 there's a certain sense that part of what he's doing in writing his novels is demonstrating his own brilliance \u2014 Little reader, behold my great gifts and my incredible brain. McCarthy can feel a little like a grim version of Country Bear Jamboree \u2014 folksy and cracker-ish and somewhat limited. Updike can feel like a very very smart suburban dad, ravishing about the world he knows but under-informed about other people in other worlds.\nI mean, one either cuts these writers the required slack, or one doesn't. There's no reason a novel, even a great one, should satisfy everyone.\nStephen \u2014 do \"The Corrections\" and \"Independence Day\" seem less infected by manners than the Rabbit books, or \"American Pastoral\"? All four seem to me to concern themselves not only with manners and mores but the institution from which manners and mores emanate \u2014 class. I often feel that too many American writers subscribe to the American delusion that we live in a classless society. Part of what I love about those four books is the ways in which all of them acknowledge the existence of an elaborate and shifting social hierarchy, based largely on economics (which is probably another reason Europeans are so into American fiction \u2014 it acknowledges the power of money).\nGreg \u2014 I hope the books being written by younger writers offer, as you put it, \"something from the culture at large,\" which is different from what's been set down by the previous generation. That's part of what novels are supposed to do. And, yes, I do think that writers today tend to reject ambitious sprawl in favor of diffident precision. It's my suspicion that literature is undergoing a certain period of what I'll call Balkanization. As readers become more diverse \u2014 or, maybe, as the diversity of readers is more widely recognized \u2014 I wonder if we're saying goodbye to the notion of a handful of seminal books, and the concurrent edict that a great work of literature should speak with equal urgency to, say, a 65-year-old straight white male CEO and a 30-year-old Jamaican lesbian. Although I'm frankly a little weary of gender politics, queer theory, and etc., with their tendencies to insist on marginal work as neglected greatness, I can't help but notice that the books we consider great are likelier to speak directly to the CEO than they are to the Jamaican woman, and that if the Jamaican woman doesn't see enough of herself in the great books on offer, she'd better learn to. I have an idea that we are, collectively and at least partly unconsciously, shedding that convention in favor of a larger, more disorganized, and more arguable body of books, no one of which is necessarily expected to appeal to everyone.\nAs I survive into middle age, I'm increasingly aware of the degree to which seminal new work often seems like a degradation of standards, and sometimes doesn't seem like art at all. \"Leaves of Grass\" (poetry, I know, but still), with its absence of stanza or form of any kind, its great passages and its less-than-great passages, struck most people as high-fallutin' nonsense. A reaction I can understand. Long after the fact, when a book like that is delivered as a classic, one gives it the benefit of the doubt.\nI've had a couple of mini-epiphanies along these lines over the years.\nIn college, when I was reading Dante, the professor told us that his work was controversial because it was written in the vernacular \u2014 the language of everyday people, as opposed to the more cultivated version of the relatively few who were educated. I thought, Hey, was it really such a big deal to write poetry that most people could read? It wasn't until years later that I realized a rough contemporary equivalent would be an epic poem written in hip-hop lyrics. Such a thing would surely be received with a skepticism not unlike that leveled at Dante.\nA while ago, I saw an early Manet at a museum in Los Angeles. It was a roughly painted portrait of a woman standing with her back turned. Suddenly, for reasons I don't fully understand, I got it \u2014 it would have looked (to me as well as others) not only like a bad painting but one pathetically obvious in its rejection of traditional painting; a stunt rather than a work of art.\nHistory has, it seems, a tendency not only to forgive artists their shortcomings but to value potency over subtlety; to not care about what seems at the time like pretentiousness, obviousness, and what I can only think to call bad-boy-ism. Along with many other adjectives, the word \"corny\" can be reasonably applied to parts of \"The Scarlet Letter,\" \"Moby Dick,\" \"The Great Gatsby,\" and \"The Sun Also Rises\" (I mean, really, a guy who's had his balls shot off?), among others. Ginsberg's \"Howl\" is already going into history, as many more exquisitely wrought poems are not. We don't all love all those books, but there's no denying that the human race seems to have some ongoing interest in them.\nUpdike. Let's dissect them one at a time, huh?\nI probably would have voted for the Rabbit books if I hadn't felt stalled by the fact that two of them were written more than 25 years ago. As Tony Scott pointed out, if the various Roth novels had appeared in a single volume, as the Rabbit books have, he'd have been the clear winner. I'd still have chosen Updike, much as I love Roth.\nI adore the Rabbit books. I respect all five books, and love them variously, but I take the purest and most visceral pleasure in those Rabbits. On the level of language, I couldn't name a better living writer than Updike. To me, his prose strikes a rare and perfect balance between virtuosity and humility. I'm a sucker for big beautiful language (as Nabokov said, trust a murderer for a fancy prose style, and good novelists are murderers in a sense), and am at the same time conscious of a fine line between sentences that are fabulous in and of themselves and sentences that are fabulous in service of the story and its characters. I'm not bothered by it, but you could absolutely say that the prose of Morrison, DeLillo, and McCarthy (not Roth) runs to the show-off-y; even the mannered. Updike to me is always deploying his considerable gifts for the purposes of illumination, and not as a demonstration of his considerable gifts.\nIn a larger sense, the Rabbit books are truly epic. We see in them the intricate ways in which Rabbit makes his own fate and at the same time has his fate made for him by forces outside his control. Which is, I think, one of the prerequisites for greatness \u2013 the ability to chart the interplay between the individual's free will and the various histories, institutions and other such that contain him. Rabbit lives. He is utterly himself, and greater than himself. I'm a fool for Updike, and the more I talk about him the more I wondered why I squandered my vote on that big hack, Don DeLillo.\nMichael, you've talked me into it. Switch my vote to the Angstromiad.\n(This will have to be brief, since this is commencement day at the graduate school, and I'll soonhave to join the procession.)\nJane, I was about to write that I love the way your way of reading, since it's so different frommine. Like most readers, I love \"The Great Gatsby,\" though I prefer \"Tender Is the Night,\" alarger, fuller, more flawed work that answers to Michael's argument that perfection is not theprovince of the novelist. But I just read your last post about \"American Pastoral,\" and it feelsexactly the way I found it in 1997. Neither Merry and her friends nor the Swede himself had muchcredibility. (Oddly, I've run into people who went to high school with Roth; all of themrecognized the real person on whom the Swede was based. But as fiction that's neither here northere. It must be credible on the page.) One difference we have is that I liked the way Roth hadZuckerman hand off the narrative to signal how much he was making it up. One of the strengthsof that American trilogy was that Roth / Zuckerman seemed less interested in himself, moreinterested in the world, past and present. This was perhaps the only thing that justified the ravesfor \"American Pastoral\" compared to the many attacks on his previous book, \"Sabbath'sTheatre,\" which was admittedly a hard book to get down, but a more courageous piece of work. But I agree with Stephen that \"The Ghost Writer\" is a much better place to start on late Roth.\nAt this point I was interrupted to go graduation, which gave me a stirring look at anothergeneration heading out into the world. Which brings me to Michael's point about older andyounger writers. I too read Eggers and Franzen and Chabon with pleasure. Will they turn out tohave the staying power of Bellow and Mailer and O'Connor and Roth and Updike and Munro? Impossible tosay. It takes a long distance to recognize a good distance runner, as so many of the postwarwriters proved to be. In the late 90s I gave a talk in London about the new wave of youngAmerican Jewish writers, such as Allegra Goodman. A well-known publisher got up afterwards,indignant, and said he was in New York all the time and had never heard of most of these writers.I pointed out that they had only published one or two books, good ones, but shouldn't becompared to writers like Bellow whose work spanned four decades. But I would still argue thatthe work published in the first thirty years after the war, from \"All the King's Men\" and \"TheNaked and the Dead\" and \"A Good Man Is Hard to Find\" to \"Gravity's Rainbow\" and\"Humboldt's Gift\" looks stronger than the fiction published in the second half of the postwarperiod. Stephen, one reason for your hesitation about voting for Rabbit may be not simply that thefirst two novels were published earlier but that they're stronger books than their much longersequels. In the latter, both Rabbit's life and Updike's sense of the world around him grow moretawdry - deeper about manners than about relationships. The author becomes more of an anatomist, not as invested in his characters. Updike is good at everything, but perhaps not as good as Roth on the downhill slope of a character's later life. Updike is never lessthan wonderful on the sentence level, and in his feeling for the surfaces of things. His latershort stories, especially the more autobiographical ones, are often as good as the earlier ones, butthe Rabbit saga, which belongs with his best work, ended none too soon. And I agree withStephen and with Tony Scott that if the Rabbit novels are considered together, the Zuckermannovels should be as well.\nGosh, we are just getting started. Why don't they put us on staff? Anyway, I don't have anything to add about Updike \u2014 I like him best of all the runners-up. But I do not think that the last twenty-five years in the American novel was the era of Roth, Updike, MacCarthy, and Dilillo. In my world, the last twenty-five years is the era Virginia Woolf predicted in \"A Room of One's Own\" \u2014 the period when women routinely gained a place to be and an education, and put both of these to use and wrote books. In my world, this last twenty-fve years is the era of, in no particular order, Valerie Martin, Gish Jen, Susan Cheever, Anne Tyler, E. Annie Proulx, Francine Prose, Alison Lurie, Diane Johnson, Alice McDermott, Geraldine Brooks, Marilynne Robinson, Sue Miller, Linda Hogan, Joyce Carol Oates, Barbara Kingsolver, Susan Sontag, Andrea Barrett, Marianne Wiggins, Joy Williams, Ursula K. LeGuin, Alice Hoffman, Alice Walker, Carol Shields, Louise Erdrich, Amy Tan, Anita Shreve, Joan Didion, Octavia Butler, Ann Beattie, Sandra Cisneros, Jamaica Kincaid, Lee Smith, Gail Godwin, Ellen Gilchrist, Cynthia Ozick, Mary Gaitskill, myself, and plenty of others I didn't think of in the first five minutes. To me, it's the women, young and old, who have been doing new and interesting things, both large and small, and that's who I've been reading. And when I suggested this to David Lodge at lunch, he agreed.\nI've been reminded by our discussion of a couple of studies that we've read about in the last two years \u2014 one said that women are likely to read books written by men and books written by women equally, while men are likely to read only books by men. I think we can extrapolate from this an artifact of the electoral process in this survey \u2014 if 69% of the responders were men, then they were most likely to vote for other men. If 31% of the responders were women, they were likely to split their votes, and therefore to skew our picture away from what really happened in these years. So many of the women writers failed to respond to the survey, either out of scrupulousness about the process or inability to choose. I was almost one of them. But I do think it's too bad, because when you sit out the election, you end up not getting represented. One thing I learned from our discussion is that if I am ever asked to answer this question again, I will ask myself, \"What would Roth do?\" If I think Roth would vote for himself, then I will vote for myself, also.\nAnother study in the past year or so indicated that of all the groups that have stopped reading literature, adult men have stopped reading it the most. This does not speak well of the \"importance\" of the big four guys. Are they central to the lives of their own demographic cohort? The group that has stopped reading least is adult women \u2014 they our still reading our books. I want posterity to know that this fact is not revealed in the survey.\nI remember long ago, I first read that Nathanial Hawthorne referred to the women writers of his time as \"A horde of scribbling women,\" and both sneered at them and lamented the fact that they were selling more books than he was. James had the same experience with Edith Wharton. I never wanted to be one of that horde, but to distinguish myself as much as a man might. I thought education and ambition would help me do the trick, but I think the Times survey sadly shows that the old divide still lives. Even Susan Sontag doesn't appear on the list, our Roth-like long-term intellectual.\nEverything I know about punditry I learned from reading the racing press. Who's the greatest horse \u2014 Secretariat because he won the Belmont Stakes by thirty-one lengths, or John Henry, because he raced so long, or some other horse who ran long, and short, on the grass, and on the dirt? Who knows? But it is wonderful to return over and over to these questions, just to think once again about how talented, and idiosyncratic those horses were. So it is with all of these literally incomparable novelists.\nGregory Cowles May 26, 11:32 AM ET:\nThe survey Jane cites about who's reading and who's not makes me worry less about literature and more about adult men.\nBut her point is well taken. We've talked about the underrepresentation of the baby boomers on our list, but in fact they made a strong showing compared with female writers \u2014 or, going back to Day 1 of this discussion, any of the other groups on Michael's catalog of the excluded: nonwhite writers, gay writers, experimental writers, post-boomer writers, and on and on.\nSteve noted in his first post that there are advantages to an admittedly fatuous exercise like this: it gets people talking about literature (mission accomplished) and it offers up a kind of dream reading list (mission also accomplished, but with decidedly more reservations, considering all of the above). So I'm grateful that over the course of the week, in dissecting the survey and its meaning, all of you have also recommended other favorites that didn't make the list, from \"The Mezzanine\" to \"Ironweed\" to \"Horse Heaven\" to The Sopranos, Season 1 \u2014 or, since that wouldn't have qualified, let's say Jhumpa Lahiri's short stories. In this way our panel was like the Harvard admissions office: there were so many qualified applicants that the judges might have chosen 22 entirely different books and still ended up with a world-class list of recommendations.\nSo I can't think of a better way to coast to the finish than to ask for more of the same \u2014 more recommendations, more debate, more analysis of the relative strengths and weaknesses of the chosen few. You're on your own from here (as you may have suspected you were all along), but I trust you'll continue to thrash it out with the same vigorous clamor until somebody throws a drunken punch and it's time to go home. Enjoy yourselves, and thanks for coming. What a swell party it's been.\nWell, concluding thoughts. If this were a baseball team, I'd be carrying the luggage (deservedly). This is the best compay one could ever hope for. Sometimes when we leave my ten week old under a mobile for too long, she gets overstimulated. I have that same gaga look in the eye, bordering on the American breserk, to semi-quote Roth. Jane, we disagree so thoroughly, we're practically soul mates. Maybe one day we can gouge each other's intellectual eyes out over coffee, and I mean that lovingly. Time purges the past of its irrelevance; so said a wise professor of mine once. In the end, no demographic category matters, on the part of the author or the reader; power relations melt away; what is left is good writing. Nothing rots faster and more conclusively than bad writing. Even a hint of the meretricious will kill it off. If it so happens that a series of bulletins from the over-inflated male ego turn out to best capture the soul of a demented culture, so be it; then Roth will triumph. Or maybe not. Some very smart money is on a modest book called \"Housekeeping.\" Or maybe the heart and patience of posterity will have room for both. What I hope we all hope for are readers uncaptive to either the classroom or the freelance critic, who find it in their lives to care about a generation of writers who tried to find, completely beyond received wisdom and cliche, a way of holding their lives and times still in thought. Bon weekend!\nThe end of the online discussion of other people's books means I'm going tohave to go back to writing my own, and one is always glad for brief periodsof deliverance from that particular fate. I thank you.\nJust a little more about who didn't make the list. Jane and I have bothtalked about that. In terms of the population at large, women writers arein fact the most glaringly under-represented. I mean, 51% of the populationonly produced two out of twenty-two great books? I suspect that if one ofthe four of us wasn't white, we might have heard more about other missingpersons. Juno Diaz, Change-Rae Lee, Vikram Seth, Randall Keenan, John EdgarWideman, Samuel Delaney, Francisco Goldman, and Ernesto Mestre comeimmediately to mind, along with all the writers on Jane's list who happen tobe women and people of various colors. And, for that matter, what about gaypeople? (I feel compelled to mention this, as the only practicinghomosexual among us.) If gay people are, say, eight per cent of thepopulation (a conservative but probably accurate estimate), shouldn't one ofthe twenty-two be by and about a gay man or lesbian?\nA list like this is retrospective, however, and it seems to me that ourincreasingly diverse sense of what matters most is likelier to be apparentin the 2031 list. At the risk of sounding like an insufficiently radicalqueer feminist, I don't feel all that disgruntled about the fact that thefour runners-up are all books by straight white guys. We're talking about aliterary era that was dominated by brilliant straight white guys, while manyother sorts of writers were and continue to be out there on the darklingplain, sharpening their spears and rattling their shields. The future isbeing invented right before our eyes.\nI'd love it if the Times would repeat this exercise, but ask the same bodyof jurors to name the book that's meant the most to them over the last 25years. No peering into the future, no obligation to name a book that seemsto have been more ardently embraced by the population at large than it hasbeen by you, just the book by an American that's most deeply rocked yourworld, taught and consoled you, illuminated and deepened the human mystery.\nThat is, I suppose, precisely what Greg's asking for now. I can't name onebook, and fortunately, I don't have to. Here, in alphabetical order, are myown favorite American books and authors from the last 25 years:\nAn even dozen. I could add more, of course, but twelve seems sufficient fornow. A few of these books don't seem quite as great to me now as they didwhen I read them, but when I read them they changed my wretched little life.\nYesterday, when I reeled off the various reasons for dismissing or at anyrate dissing the five Big Ones, I was aware that it's always possible to saysomething cruel and accurate about a book. I love all five books in spiteof their shortcomings. I suspect it gets down to love, on a global scale.Which books do we, as a people, love most even when they fail us in variousways? As I've noted, history does seem to have a way of taking up thegrand, flawed efforts and sweeping away the little gem-like books in whichthere may not be much to criticize but may not be all that much to love,either.\nThis has been another day when it's been very hard to get to the computer, so I'm not sure these concluding thoughts will get posted before closing time. I enjoyed this discussion hugely. Our long list could make a wonderful curriculum, but I agree that many good writers are missing and whole groups are underrepresented. This is not to say that I have any sympathy for the affirmative action approach to literary value, but the need to cast a vote for a single work skewed the results toward would-be masterpieces, large, ambitious, often flawed books that, say, men have reached for more often than women. (Figure that one out.) The steady excellence of a Munro or a Doctorow made them less likely to make this list, while the go-for-broke intensity and hyperbolic manner of a Roth or a McCarthy made them more likely to do well, for it helped give them passionate partisans that a novel of manners would hardly find. What James Wood called hysterical realism always makes a more dramatic claim than straightforward realism, though Ford and Carver did make the long list.\nThat said, I think the poll confirms that Roth has been the prepossessing novelist of this period, a writer willing to follow his obsessions (currently, death or dying) to the limit, despite the wise, moderating advice of friends and friendly critics. But literature is a region in which a hundred flowers bloom side by side; no single figure diminishes any other, and no one writer ought to be singled out at the expense of another. Still, I'm grateful to have been part of this conversation and to be reminded not only how differently writers write but how differently readers read, especially good readers. To be continued.\nMister Doesn't-Know-When-to-Quit here.\nThe week's discussion has not only caused me to regret the fact that I don'tsit in cafes and argue about literature nearly enough (or, okay, ever), it'sbeen a nice reminder about how different readers read and how, as you putit, Morris, no single figure diminishes any other, and no one writer oughtto be singled out at the expense of another. It was particularly satisfyingto have an unhysterical conversation about diversity and inclusion and all.That conversation so often devolves into a cat fight, the mythical BigWhite Guys versus the equally mythical Motley Others; it can reduceintelligent readers to make unwarranted claims either for the status quo orfor the significance of certain books largely on the basis of theirdisregard for same. Every writer about whom I feel passionate is simplywriting the best goddamned book he or she can, given what the world hasgiven him or her to work with by way of gifts and material. I have thetemerity to look forward to a future in which all manner of books andwriters qualify for the top accolades, and the only questions have to dowith the (I'll just say it) truth and beauty and rigor of the work. Withthe clear understanding that we'll never agree about where truth, beauty andrigor most squarely reside, and that the matter of greatness will be asubject of ongoing debate, as it should be.",

        "raw_content": "Asia Pacific|Samoa Sacrifices a Day for Its Future\nhttps://nyti.ms/suLSHC\nSamoa Sacrifices a Day for Its Future\nBy SETH MYDANS DEC. 29, 2011\nThe Pacific island nation of Samoa and its even tinier neighbor Tokelau are skipping Friday this week, jumping westward in time across the international date line and into the shifting economic balance of the 21st century.\nThe time change, officially decided in June, is meant to align Samoa with its Asian trading partners; it moves the islands\u2019 work days further from the United States, which dominated its economy in the past.\nIn this giant-step version of daylight saving time, the island\u2019s 186,000 citizens, and the 1,500 who live in Tokelau, will go to sleep on Thursday and wake up on Saturday. The government has decreed that those who miss a day of work on Friday will be paid all the same.\nSamoa has been out of alignment with its Asian-Pacific neighbors since 1892, when American traders persuaded it in 1892 to shift from the western side to the eastern side of the international date line to facilitate business with the West Coast of the United States. That earlier shift took place on the American Independence Day \u2014 so the Samoans could celebrate July 4 twice. This one takes place at the stroke of midnight, so that two minutes after 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 29, it will be 12:01 a.m. on Dec. 31. The new time zone will put Samoa 3 hours ahead of eastern Australia rather than 21 hours behind it, and 22 hours ahead of California, instead of 2 hours behind it.\nThe prime minister of Samoa, Tuila\u2019epa Sailele Malielegaoi, acknowledged the new distance from the American orbit but said the move would make it much easier to do business with Australia and New Zealand, whose economies are linked increasingly with the rest of Asia, particularly China.\n\u201cIn doing business with New Zealand and Australia, we\u2019re losing out on two working days a week,\u201d Mr. Tuila\u2019epa said. \u201cWhile it\u2019s Friday here, it\u2019s Saturday in New Zealand, and when we\u2019re at church on Sunday, they\u2019re already conducting business in Sydney and Brisbane.\u201d\n\u201cToday,\u201d the statement said bluntly, \u201cwe do a lot more business with New Zealand and Australia, China and Pacific Rim countries such as Singapore.\u201d\nTwo years ago Samoa took a step to align itself with Australia and New Zealand, putting drivers on the left side of the road rather than the right. The prime minister said the change would make it easier for Samoans in those neighboring nations to send used cars home to their relatives.\nShifting time by decree is not a new phenomenon in the Pacific. At the recent turn of the century, in a bid to be the first to greet the dawn in what was called the new millennium, Pacific island nations engaged in a free-for all of shifting time zones, date lines and daylight saving times.\nThe date line, created at an international convention in 1884, is an imaginary line drawn roughly north to south along the 180-degree meridian, zigging and zagging here and there to accommodate the needs and demands of the nations along its route.\nMoving westward across the date line, a traveler loses a day, moving to a point where it is 24 hours later. Moving eastward, a day is gained.\nAs the year 2000 approached, the island nation of Kiribati (32 atolls and one coral island) unilaterally extended the date line in a 1,000-mile loop to embrace its easternmost outcropping, Caroline Island. Tonga and Fiji introduced daylight saving time to move their clocks an hour ahead.\n\u201cThere seems to be no legal reason why any country cannot declare itself to be in whatever time zone it likes,\u201d said the Royal Observatory at Greenwich, the international arbiter of official time, in a premillennium statement.\nThe Samoan prime minister insisted that this week\u2019s hop across the date line was prompted solely by economic realities and that it had nothing to do with a bid to be the first place in the world to greet the new year in 2012.\nAmerican Samoa, less than 100 miles to the east of Samoa, is not making the switch.\nA version of this article appears in print on December 30, 2011, on Page A4 of the New York edition with the headline: Samoa Sacrifices a Day for Its Future.

        "title": "How to Boost Your Metabolism and Lose Weight",
        "raw_content": "Regrettably, many people simply don't understand the concept of metabolism and metabolic change. This, equally as regrettably, is hardly their fault.\nThere is so much information floating around out there, much of it over the 'net or through a \"friend of a friend who has a personal trainer\", that there's bound to be some confusion and conflicting messages.\nFurthermore, many people (quite understandably) mistake their own weight gain and loss episodes as a matter of metabolic change. Sometimes this is true, and sometimes it isn't.\nFor example, as we will discuss in this book, there are scientific ways to increase the rate of metabolic change, and thus enable the body to burn more calories.\nEating certain foods more frequently is one way to do this (again, we look closer at these in this book). Yet another way to visibly lose weight - at least on a perceived, temporary level - is to sit in a steam room for a few hours.\nWhereas the former method (eating the right foods) is a real, proven weight loss method through increased metabolic change, the latter method (the steam room) is just temporary because the lost weight is merely water, and will return as swiftly as it \"melted away\".\nThe point to remember here is that some people mistake their own weight loss attempts as being related to metabolic change; and, as you can see with the steam room example, that isn't always the case.\nSome people think that the metabolism is a kind of organ, or a body part, that influences digestion.\nActually, the metabolism isn\u2019t any particular body part. It\u2019s the process by which the body converts food into energy.\nHence, you\u2019ve likely heard of the phrase metabolic process used synonymously with the term metabolism, because they both mean the same thing.\nThe Medical Mumbo Jumbo\nThis isn\u2019t a complicated medical text (which should be great news to most of you!), and so we don\u2019t need to spend an unnecessary amount of time and space focusing on the layered complexity of the human body and its extraordinary intelligence.\nYet without drilling deeply into medical details -- which are not relevant for our general understanding purposes -- it\u2019s helpful to briefly look at the biological mechanisms behind metabolism.\nMetabolism, as mentioned above, is the process of transforming food (e.g. nutrients) into fuel (e.g. energy). The body uses this energy to conduct a vast array of essential functions.\nIn fact, your ability to read this page \u2013 literally \u2013 is driven by your metabolism.\nIf you had no metabolism \u2013 that is, if you had no metabolic process that was converting food into energy \u2013 then you wouldn\u2019t be able to move.\nIn fact, long before you realized that you couldn\u2019t move a finger or lift your foot, your internal processes would have stopped; because the basic building blocks of life \u2013 circulating blood, transforming oxygen into carbon dioxide, expelling potentially lethal wastes through the kidneys and so on \u2013 all of these depend on metabolism.\nKeep this in mind the next time you hear someone say that they have a slow metabolism.\nWhile they may struggle with unwanted weight gain due to metabolic factors, they certainly have a functioning metabolism.\nIf they didn\u2019t, they wouldn\u2019t even be able to speak (because that, too, requires energy that comes from, you guessed it: metabolism!).\nIt\u2019s also interesting to note that, while we conveniently refer to the metabolic process as if it were a single function, it\u2019s really a catch-all term for countless functions that are taking place inside the body. Every second of every minute of every day of your life \u2013 even, of course, when you sleep \u2013 numerous chemical conversions are taking place through metabolism, or metabolic functioning.\nIn a certain light, the metabolism has been referred to as a harmonizing process that manages to achieve two critical bodily functions that, in a sense, seem to be at odds with each other.\nThe first function is creating tissue and cells. Each moment, our bodies are creating more cells to replace dead or dysfunctional cells.\nFor example, if you cut your finger, your body (if it\u2019s functioning properly) will begin \u2013 without even wasting a moment or asking your permission \u2013the process of creating skin cells to clot the blood and start the healing process. This creation process is indeed a metabolic response, and is called anabolism.\nOn the other hand, there is the exact opposite activity taking place in other parts of the body. Instead of building cells and tissue through metabolism, the body is breaking down energy so that the body can do what it\u2019s supposed to do.\nFor example, as you aerobically exercise, your body temperature rises as your heart beat increases and remains with a certain range.\nAs this happens, your body requires more oxygen; and as such, your breathing increases as you intake more H2O. All of this, as you can imagine, requires additional energy.\nAfter all, if your body couldn\u2019t adjust to this enhanced requirement for oxygen (both taking it in and getting rid of it in the form of carbon dioxide), you would collapse!\nPresuming, of course, that you aren\u2019t overdoing it, your body will instead begin converting food (e.g. calories) into energy.\nAnd this process, as you know, is a metabolic process, and is called catabolism.\nSo as you can see, the metabolism is a constant process that takes care of two seemingly opposite function: anabolism that uses energy to create cells, and catabolism that breaks down cells to create energy.\nIndeed, it\u2019s in this way that the metabolism earns its reputation as a harmonizer. It brings together these apparently conflicting functions, and does so in an optimal way that enables the body to create cells as needed, and break them down, again as needed.\nBy now, you already have a sense of how metabolism relates to weight loss (catabolic metabolism, or breaking cells down and transforming them into energy).\nTo understand this process even more clearly, we can introduce a very important player in the weight loss game: the calorie.",

        "title": "Interview with Luisa Plaja ~",
        "raw_content": "extreme kissing, interview, luisa plaja, sex in ya\nInterview with Luisa Plaja\nThe absolutely wonderful Luisa Plaja, author of Extreme Kissing - and the wonderful lady who helped me come up with the idea for Sex in Teen Lit Month, and prepare for it - has been kind enough to answer some questions about her novel and the subject in general.\nHow did you come up with the idea for Extreme Kissing?\nIt was a combination of a few things. There was an article I read about people who travel the world, choosing destinations at random. There was my love of teenage magazines. And then there were two characters who popped into my head \u2013 girls who seemed at face value to be at opposite extremes in almost every possible way, but who really got on. I wanted to bring everything together into a random road trip adventure for teenage girls.\nExtreme Kissing is quite a thought-provoking book when it comes to teenage pregnancy and the attitudes towards teenage promiscuity. Was it your intention to send out a message on these topics? Why?\nNo, I didn\u2019t set out to send out any messages, but I did want to reflect reality. I wanted to look at attitudes to risk-taking and safety, in all its forms, and one of these was in the girls\u2019 attitudes to sex. Bethany is, in her words, \u2018a good girl \u2013 well, mostly\u2019. She spends her life pleasing people and being \u2018safe and sensible\u2019, and she even follows all the \u2018rules\u2019 when it comes to sleeping with her boyfriend: she\u2019s in a long-term relationship, she\u2019s over 16, she uses contraception. Carlota is far more reckless in all things, she\u2019d define herself as a risk-taker and she positively cultivates her \u2018bad girl\u2019 image, for her own reasons. I tried to describe two different attitudes to sexual behaviour in the context of the way it\u2019s seen by people other than the girls themselves.\nThere\u2019s possibly one message that I hope could radiate lightly from all the books I\u2019ve written, though, and that\u2019s something along the lines of \u2018even if you make a mistake, it doesn\u2019t have to mean the end of the world \u2013 you have the strength to deal with it\u2019.\nWhen Bethany is worrying about whether she\u2019s pregnant or not, she doesn\u2019t really consider the options she has if she is pregnant. Was there a reason you didn\u2019t go down that route?\nExtreme Kissing is a novel that\u2019s set all in one day. I don\u2019t think issues like that would necessarily come up at first for anyone who starts to suspect an unwanted pregnancy. I think the early reaction would undoubtedly be some form of denial. During the course of the day, Bethany swings between torturing herself with the possibility of pregnancy and forgetting about it completely, depending on what\u2019s going on. I also think that really, deep down, Bethany has a fair idea of the truth right from the start, but she\u2019s too caught up in her thoughts to let herself believe it \u2013 until she\u2019s ready.\nFor the most part, you seem to steer clear from bringing up the subject of contraception in the novel. Did you not want the novel to seem too preachy?\nAh, I have to say that I thought I\u2019d accompanied most mentions of sex with mentions of condoms... I\u2019m glad it didn\u2019t seem heavy-handed, then!\nCarlota goes on an unexpected personal journey as the book progresses, and has some realisations. Before those realisations hit, was there a psychological reason behind Carlota\u2019s behaviour and attitude towards boys, or is Carlota generally just a flirty person?\nWell, Carlota is definitely a flirty person! I think, as with everything, it\u2019s probably a combination of nature and nurture. Against her will, she has moved country twice in her life before the novel starts \u2013 once to Brussels and once to London. Both times she has left behind people she loves (her grandmother in Spain, and Yves in Brussels). She\u2019s the kind of person who\u2019d put a brave face on it, though, and just cope, and she certainly wouldn\u2019t want any fuss made of her. She\u2019d rather be seen as strong and a fighter, which is one reason she relishes her reputation and works hard to keep it going. She\u2019s also a bit of an attention-seeker, of course, which isn\u2019t helped by the fact that she feels pushed out at home.\nCarlota puts a lot of trust in what is written in her favourite mag, \u2018Teen Spice!\u2019 What are your views on teenage magazines today in regards to what they say about sex?\nI think the messages are responsible, on the whole \u2013 there\u2019s definitely an emphasis on waiting until you\u2019re ready, and using protection. Maybe there\u2019s a slight danger that they give off an \u2018everybody\u2019s doing it so you should do it too, right now\u2019 message, but I think that comes far more strongly from society as a whole, and actually teenage magazines often try to redress that in their problem pages. I love the way problem pages don\u2019t criticise girls for having a sex drive, though. I think that\u2019s important. I\u2019m sorry to say that before the launch of J17 in the eighties, I think they did. Pre-J17, I think many teenage magazines either avoided the subject altogether as if it didn\u2019t exist, or they gave off the message: \u2018don\u2019t even go there\u2019. I think this ignores the fact that people might actually want to go there, and there\u2019s a danger of making girls feel bad about natural feelings \u2013 feelings that boys, in turn, are encouraged to have and act on. I definitely prefer the more realistic attitude of today\u2019s teenage magazines.\nThere weren\u2019t any actual sex scenes in the novel. Was that because it didn\u2019t fit in with the characters and the plot, or because you chose not to include any?\nBethany and Declan\u2019s first time together was an explicit scene in the original first draft. It didn\u2019t quite fit the story any more by the later drafts, and so I deleted it.\nMost YA novels are wonderfully realistic, honest and thought-provoking on this topic, without moralising. There are some fantastic examples of this on your list.\nDo you think there is a limit on what should be covered in YA novels?\nNo, I really don\u2019t think so. I think it\u2019s very important not to underestimate readers.\nWell, in terms of \u2018explicit\u2019 books, there was Forever by Judy Blume, and Flowers in the Attic by Virginia Andrews. Both of these got passed around at school when I was about 12. The Virginia Andrews book was very entertaining but not exactly a healthy depiction of sex. (For those who don\u2019t know, it describes an incestuous relationship between a brother and sister who are forced to live in a confined space together.) Let\u2019s just say I think it\u2019s great that there\u2019s such a wide range of fiction available today! Though I\u2019m not criticising Forever, which I think is a wonderful novel. I\u2019ve thoroughly enjoyed its influence on contemporary teenage fiction, with titles such as Anatomy of a Boyfriend by Daria Snadowsky (dedicated to Judy Blume) and A Bad Boy Can Be Good For a Girl by Tanya Lee Stone (where Judy Blume\u2019s Forever is instrumental to the story). I do wonder whether any boy since the release of Forever has been named Ralph...\nI read all types of books when I was a teenager, though, including \u2018bonkbuster\u2019 style books by authors like Jackie Collins that featured lots of raunchy stuff, and horror novels like Carrie by Stephen King (a YA novel in disguise if ever I read one!) I also read sweet teenage romance novels, and plenty of them. They were great fun but very \u2018clean\u2019, some possibly to a fault \u2013 you could spot the \u2018bad girls\u2019 a mile off, and they\u2019d be most likely to \u2018go too far\u2019. I don\u2019t remember the boys involved ever being accused of the same \u2018crime\u2019. The double standard is still alive, of course, and still written about, but I think in the past it was sometimes perpetuated in novels, and nowadays I believe it\u2019s nearly always highlighted in a critical way. This makes me happy.\nI would never criticise anyone\u2019s beliefs on this subject. However, I don\u2019t agree with any form of book banning. I also believe that the world of Young Adult fiction is a wonderfully safe place to learn about sex and sexuality, to satisfy curiosity and to explore some of the issues surrounding these topics.\nI did want to add that when I first discussed the list of possible titles for this event with you, I accidentally omitted a trilogy that I think was ground-breaking in the world of UK teen fiction when it was first released in the 90s. The trilogy that starts with Diving In by Kate Cann was unique at the time in its depiction of a sexual relationship between teenagers without nasty, terrible consequences and/or glamorous sensationalism. I\u2019d urge everyone interested in this topic (or everyone who likes a good book!) to read this series, and also to read what Kate Cann says on her website on the subject of sex in Diving In, which has recently been updated and re-released.\nAlso, I\u2019d love to thank you very, very much for holding this month and all these great discussions!\nWell, thank you for all your help, and for the awesome interview. Do any of you have any questions for Luisa? If so, ask! Luisa will be popping over to answer any further questions you guys may have, so get typing!\nGreat interview, Jo and Luisa! I think it's very important to no book ban too. Although working in a school with a very specific religious bent makes that increasingly hard.\nForever was such an instrumental book in my teen years. It gave me the inspiration to make some great choices as a teen and for that I am grateful.\nThanks for putting the spotlight on books that should be read!\nI'm glad you enjoyed the interview!\nThanks very much for again this, Jo, and thanks a lot for your comment, Adele. I think everyone who has read Forever remembers it - it's such a great book.\nGreat interview guys! I agree about the Diving In trilogy Luisa - I love it too!\nI'm glad you liked the interview, Jenny! :)\nThanks for a great interview Luisa and Jo!",

        "title": "Chip Coffey Biography",
        "raw_content": "Chip Coffey's Psychic Background and Works\nWhat Kinds of Psychic Abilities Does Chip Have?\nHow Does Chip Receive and Process Psychic Information?\nAre Readings with Chip Scary?\nHow Can I Get a Reading from Chip?\nAn internationally known and beloved psychic, medium, paranormal investigator and spiritual counselor, Chip Coffey is a renowned spiritual medium who has honed his abilities to help others by offering them guidance, insight and direction.\nThe great grandson of Minnie Sue Morrow Foster, an acclaimed Native American Medicine Woman who gained fame in the early part of the twentieth century because of her own spiritual gifts and talents, Chip was born in Upstate New York but spent much of his childhood growing up in South Carolina. Chip now resides in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia.\nChip is a clairvoyant, clairaudient and clairsentient psychic who received formal training and earned degrees in Counseling and Psychology and once worked as a traditional counselor. Chip now works as a full time psychic and spiritual counselor from his home base in Atlanta.\nIn addition to his work as a spiritual counselor and psychic, Chip is also an author and speaker who makes personal appearances throughout the United States. With his gifts, Chip is able to see, hear and feel psychic information that he shares and uses to help people who seek his counsel for clarity and guidance.\nChip can also help people reconnect with loved ones who have passed on. Connecting people with deceased loved ones offers a way for people suffering from pain, grief and loss to get much needed closure, answer unanswered questions or simply receive peace of mind in the knowledge that their loved one is still with them, albeit in another realm.\nChip's God-given psychic abilities appeared early on in his childhood. As a very young child, Chip would know when the phone was about to ring and who would be on the other end. Around the age of ten, Chip began giving unprompted readings for friends and family. Chip's family was supportive of him and encouraged his gifts allowing him to hone and sharpen them without fear, doubt, shame or embarrassment.\nAs Chip grew into adulthood and encountered other psychics and children with psychic abilities, he realized many people with these talents were not encouraged to tap into them and were often labeled as \u201coverly imaginative\u201d or \u201cattention seeking.\u201d Since making that unpleasant discovery, Chip has worked to shift the public's perception of psychics.\nChip has used his own personal childhood experiences and his professional degree in Psychology and Counseling to help guide children who are just discovering and sometimes struggling with understanding, accepting and using their psychic gifts.\nTelevision network A&E spotlighted the challenges and struggles children gifted with psychic abilities often face on their hit program Psychic Kids Children of the Paranormal and called on the expertise and counsel of Chip to help guide psychic children and help them to fully embrace, understand and use their gifts in positive, empowering ways.\nBased on the understanding that not every child can, or should, appear on a television show designed to showcase and help them through their journey of psychic discovery and that many children gifted with psychic abilities are misjudged, misunderstood, misdiagnosed or labeled as \u201cmisfits\u201d led Chip to write a book entitled Growing Up Psychic: My Story of Not Just Surviving but Thriving-and How Others Like Me Can, Too.\nChip was also featured in the A&E's television series Paranormal State, a show where teams of psychics and paranormal investigators visited places said to be haunted or where paranormal activity was rumored to occur. Chip has also appeared on numerous shows including Larry King Live, Good Morning America, Nightline, CBS Sunday Morning, Tyra and Entertainment Tonight to name just a few.\nChip seeks to use his God-given gifts coupled with his public platform to help demystify psychic abilities and to help people of all ages blessed with psychic gifts to fully embrace them. Chip also strives to use his public platform to educate the public about psychics in an effort to change the way people with psychic abilities are perceived and how they are treated by those who do not share their gifts and talents.\nIn addition to his efforts to help demystify psychic abilities, Chip is also a tireless champion for animals. Chip donates a portion of the proceeds from the sale of his book to groups dedicated to animal adoption and rescue efforts. Chip also uses his gifts to work with and support hospice and hospice related programs throughout the United States.\nChip possess a variety of psychic abilities and gifts. Able to foretell future events with startling accuracy by tuning into messages sent by his spiritual partners existing in higher realms, Chip can also connect and communicate with people who have passed from this world into the next. While Chip has been able to predict coming events since a very early age, the gift of communicating with the deceased came to him much later in life.\nAfter his father's death in 1986, Chip received a visit from his father on the day of his funeral asking Chip to take care of his mother. Later in 2001, the brother of one of Chip's coworkers began communicating with Chip opening up a new realm of abilities for Chip to tap into.\nThis experience is the one Chip points to as opening the door to his ability to communicate with the spirits of people who have passed on. Now, Chip uses this incredible psychic power to help people reconnect with their loved ones for much needed closure, healing and a sense of peace that their loved ones are still with them, know about their lives and surround them with love.\nIn 2002, Chip studied and trained under the guidance of Patti Starr to earn his certification in ghost hunting. Since that time, Chip has worked on a number of paranormal investigations. Chip uses his innate abilities coupled with the training he received from study with Ms. Starr to help people understand what is behind the paranormal activity they experience in their homes, buildings or on their properties. This information can help people more accurately determine how to live with the activity, how to put it to rest or if they should abandon the space altogether and simply let the spirits have it.\nChip does not depend on runes, tarot cards, crystal balls or other divination tools to receive information from the spiritual world and those who live in it. Chip is able to gather and process information he receives in a way he describes as bypassing his five senses and being \u201cimprinted\u201d in his brain.\nChip can \u201csee\u201d images or videos and can \u201chear\u201d messages though they are received as words delivered without being spoken in the way we understand verbal communication to work. Though he has seen spirits of people that have died, Chip does not \u201csee\u201d dead people on a regular basis but rather he senses and feels the energy of spirits around him.\nNot at all! Most clients report feeling an extreme sense of peace and calm during and after their visits with Chip. Most people say they feel as though they were truly speaking with their loved ones and got the answers or peace of mind they have been seeking. While the information spirits pass on to Chip is usually very simple in nature, the messages are incredibly healing and meaningful to their loved ones. In fact, Chip uses the motto \u201cNo fear! No doubt!\u201d proudly on his website and people who work with him fully support those claims.\nChip offers a variety of private appointments for individual readings conducted by phone. Offering private and individualized psychic readings, spirit contact readings and combination readings allows people to choose the type of reading and experience they receive during their time with Chip.\nUsually, it is about a sixty day wait to get an appointment time. For people facing extreme or time sensitive problems, Chip is sometimes able to accommodate them with an ASAP reading within a thirty day timeframe. These appointments can be made and paid for on Chip's website and it contains all the information you need to decide which type of reading is right for you and how to properly prepare yourself for the reading.\nYou can also see Chip in the many appearances, events and talks he attends and gives around the country. Chip keeps an updated calendar of appearances and events on his website so you can plan to see him when he is in your area.\nWhether you elect to have a private reading or see Chip in a public appearance, an encounter with Chip will likely change the way you see psychics and your own understanding of a world beyond the one you now know. Offering insight, guidance and counsel gleaned from a different plane, Chip Coffey is a gifted psychic you can trust.",

        "title": "Ophthalmology Management - As I See It \u2014 DREAM interpretation",
        "raw_content": "Earlier this year, results from the long-anticipated DREAM study were presented at ASCRS. The \u201cpremiere\u201d was much like that of an Oscar-nominated movie (interestingly, on Friday the 13th), and this \u201creal-world\u201d study was also published in the New England Journal of Medicine. The Journal\u2019s press release stated that, \u201cOmega-3 fails to yield beneficial results,\u201d which was highly misleading and of great disservice to patients. Many clinicians were shocked at how this NEI-sponsored, IRB-approved protocol could have ever gotten, well, approved.\nJUST A FEW POINTS\nAlong with two prestigious experts in dry eyes, Alice Epitropoulos, MD, and Cynthia Matossian, MD, I submitted a letter to the editor of the NEJM with our concerns. I was surprised that the letter was not accepted for submission, so I thought I\u2019d share why so many of us objected to its hyped-up conclusion. Also, I acknowledge that I have received consultation fees from a company that distributes an omega-3 product.\nDespite claims that research subjects were \u201cwell-defined,\u201d closer examination revealed that numerous design flaws introduced significant etiological and methodological variability, which created an uncontrolled study environment where definitive conclusions could not be drawn:\nSubjects were not recruited for dry eye disease (DED) according to the Tear Film & Ocular Surface Society\u2019s 2017 definition but according to the 2007 definition in place at the time of the study\u2019s design. That 2007 definition states elevated osmolarity as a sequelae, not as an etiological cause of DED. So tear osmolarity wasn\u2019t part of the screening process. TBUT was not required.\nSubjects had confounding disease states with similar dry eye symptoms. While that may reflect what ophthalmologists see in the real world in their DED patients, the various conditions \u2014 such as thyroid disease (18.6%), rheumatoid arthritis (10.9%) and Sjogren\u2019s syndrome (9.5%) \u2014 have different etiologies. This would have resulted in varying patient responsiveness to the study\u2019s omega-3 therapy.\nSubjects were allowed, in both the active and placebo arms of the study, to use a wide variety of other therapies, including artificial tears and gels, cyclosporine drops and corticosteroids, as well as warm lid soaks, scrubs or baby shampoo. Subjects could even use omega-3 supplements, up to 1,200 mg per day. Even more shocking: Participants could change treatments throughout the study, which 75% did.\nThe \u201cplacebo\u201d was 5 grams of olive oil compared to 3 grams of the omega-3 studied. Olive oil is known to have anti-inflammatory properties, hardly an inactive ingredient.1\nEven with all this, 61% of subjects in the omega-3 arm experienced improvement, a dramatically higher success rate than for many pharmaceutical products. The distorted spin on the study attempted to controvert the well-documented benefits of omega-3 for patients with true DED.2 A very well-controlled study published in Cornea in 2016 showed definitive improvement in tear osmolarity, MMP-9, OSDI, TBUT and omega-3 index in subjects taking a re-esterified omega-3 supplement, compared to a true placebo.\nIn conclusion, one well-designed study showed a huge improvement in patients who took high quality re-esterified omega-3s compared to those who took a true placebo. Another study showed a huge improvement in patients who took omega-3s along with those who took an active placebo.\nGiven these issues, it seems inappropriate and highly premature to conclude that omega-3s are not beneficial to patients with DED.

        "raw_content": "Standard drawing selector\nBahrain World Trade Center, Manama, Bahrain\nThe sail-shaped towers of the Bahrain World Trade Center rise 240 metres above the capital city of Manama, their design inspired by traditional Arabian trading ships.\nCombining a dramatic visual statement with state-of-the-art engineering, the towers demonstrate Bahrain\u2019s commitment to sustainable design and renewable energy. Bahrain is the first Persian Gulf nation to establish a post-oil economy built on banking and tourism.\nThe tapered, elliptical towers act as airfoils, channelling offshore winds to drive three massive wind turbines set between the towers on a series of skybridges. Engineers say the turbines are designed to generate between 11 percent and 15 percent of the centre\u2019s energy needs.\nThe Bahrain World Trade Center stands as a proud symbol of this island nation. The towers are equipped with 12 high-speed Otis\u00ae lifts, including four with panoramic glass cabs that provide stunning views of the gulf. Otis supplied a total of 26 lifts for the entire complex, which also includes a three-story base for commercial use.\nturbine weight\nmegawatt-hours (MWh)\nRuling the winds\nEngineers say they used computational fluid dynamics and sophisticated wind-tunnel tests to determine the ideal shape of the towers to maximise the power generated by the wind turbines.\nTheir analysis led to an elliptical, tapered design that funnels offshore winds between the towers and creates negative air pressure (or lift) from behind. That innovative design accelerates the wind\u2019s velocity as it hits the turbines.\nPerfect orientation\nThe trade centre faces north, the direction from which air blows over the Persian Gulf. The orientation also creates a dramatic entry point for the entire complex.\nQuick facts about the Bahrain World Trade Center\nIn 2006, the Bahrain World Trade Center received the prestigious LEAF Award for Best Use of Technology within a Large Scheme. And in 2008, it was named the Best Tall Building in the Middle East and Africa by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH).\ntotal Otis lifts",

        "raw_content": "K2: Islamagood\nHappy birthday to me, happy birthday to me. Not sure how much of a fiesta we\u2019re going to be able to drum up in this town, but my birthday wishes are all in place and I\u2019m super stoked to be here.\nA few days ago we flew into Islamabad at the ungodly hour of 4:00 in the morning. We owe a huge thanks to the ever-hospitable Mohammed Ali of Karakorum Magic Mountain (KMM) for meeting us at the airport with a big smile and a hearty welcome despite the ungodly hour.\nKMM is the group that has organized the porters who will accompany us to base camp with all the food, our climbing permit, and all the gear and fuel that will keep us fat and happy for the next two months. \"Fat\" and \"happy\" are perhaps not the most precise terms to use considering we\u2019ll be parked up at 5,000 meters on the Baltoro glacier for the next two months, but we\u2019re going to stay positive until one of us pukes. Literally.\nAnyway, the crew at KMM are solid guys who provide a great service and we can\u2019t say enough good things about them. If you\u2019re heading towards Pakistan and need Base Camp logistics give them a call and tell \u2018em to add it to Fredrik Ericsson\u2019s bill. They love that guy.\nWe planned our schedule to fly in on a Sunday when we knew everything would be closed so that we\u2019d be able to catch up on some much-needed sleep. Our day of rest would also allow us the chance to do some casual sightseeing before we got stuck into the meetings and last\u2013minute ratting around we had scheduled on Monday.\nWe swung past Faisal Mosque, which, at 5,000 square meters (54,000 square feet) is the largest mosque in Pakistan and the sixth largest in the world. I guess you could call it the Muslim version of the Mormon Tabernacle Church. (I wonder how many readers I just lost with that comparison.)\nAnyway, Faisal was indeed the place to be for people of Islamabad on a Sunday. And people went out of their way to be friendly, joke around, and tell us how much they love Americans. Of course, my guess is the ones who don\u2019t like Americans were less inclined to stop by for a chat, but the overwhelming impression I got was that, in Pakistan, if you can move beyond the fear of some serious evil-eye glares you\u2019ll wind up in a conversation with someone with workable English who is genuinely friendly and eager to spread light on the misconceptions about their culture.\nThe next day we ventured into the 42C heat (107F) to pay a visit to the Alpine Club of Pakistan. This stopover is required of all climbers needing a peak permit. At the ACP headquarters in Islamabad\u2019s sprawling sports complex we met a group of French and Canadian climbers who were on their way to Gasherbrum II.\nWe also had the great pleasure of meeting Yusuke Sato, one of the Giri Giri Boys who is a double Piolet d\u2019Or nominee. In English, this means Sato is one of the premier climbers on the planet right now. Sato, Fumitaka Ichimura, and Katus Yokoyama are on their way to push a new route up the North Face of Latok, a particularly fearsome peak with no easy routes and very few ascents. Lord have mercy. Sato told me Giri Giri is Japanese for \"at the limit\" or \"on the edge.\"\nWhen our turn was called, we went in for a meeting with the head of the Alpine Club of Pakistan, Wing Commander Javaid Iqbal. Seems the Air Force more or less oversees the ACP as well as the national ski team.\nIn any case, Commander Iqbal was a serious but pleasant man. He asked us about our previous climbing experience and what we did for work. The whole scenario kind of had the same feeling as that of visiting with your girlfriend\u2019s dad where a certain amount of respect is called for but ultimately you\u2019re both on the same team.\nHe also told us about the high mountain K2 cleanup project that has been scheduled for this year by the ACP together with the Ev-K2-CNR Committee. Their last initiative, a cleanup of Concordia, was well-needed and greatly appreciated.\nAfter that, we went to exchange some cash. I\u2019m here to report that at this time $1 is worth 85 Pakistani rupees and one euro is worth 98. Clearly, the global economy isn't doing so hot.\n--Trey Cook (with Fredrik Ericsson)\nFor more photos of K2, check out climber Fabrizio Zangrilli's gallery.",

        "raw_content": "The Importance of Good Imagery in Web Design\nIn the current digital era, it is very clear that one of the most important aspects of a successful business is to have a well designed website that attracts good traffic and interest. What may not be clear is the necessity of great imagery. Imagery that stands out and inspires.\nWhy imagery is so important is explained by the way our brain works. The brain deciphers image elements instantly, while language is decoded in a linear, sequential manner taking more time to process. Studies tell us that 90% of information transmitted to the brain is visual. The brain processes visuals 60,000 times faster than text. John Berger\u2019s quote \u2018seeing comes before words\u2019 is certainly apt here.\nThe importance of good imagery in web design is imperative. A wonderful shot or illustration highly related to the content of the website can increase the interest around the site and can encourage the visitor to stay even longer.\nOn the other hand, if a website has mediocre or sub standard imagery, the result can be that the visitor leaves the page in seconds, and simply because it looks as if effort hasn\u2019t been put into the design of the site. If little attention has been made on the aesthetics of the site then it\u2019s also logical to assume that the content isn\u2019t going to be great either, even if this is not necessarily true.\nTherefore great imagery is essential for your site. It highlights your professionalism, greatly enhances the look of your website, improves your own credibility and shows an attention to detail. First you encourage the customer to come to your store then win him by the excellence of visuals.\nGood imagery can be produced using photography, illustrations or a combination of both.\nA professional photographer has the ability to take high quality images for your website. They can be extremely personal or directly relate to your website. Professional images capture authenticity and exclusivity because no one else will be allowed to use them and they inclusive to you and your brand. The downside to this of course, is cost. Hiring a professional photographer can be expensive. An alternative is using stock photography, which is the next way of getting great photos for your site.\nExample from client Ellis Bridal of great photography provided for website\nThere are many stock photo sites around the net, which offer great quality images, however, as with using a professional photographer, there can be a downside. Stock photography has the danger to be generic, and not that well targeted to your site.\nIllustrations are another extremely interesting way to create unique and beautiful imagery for your website. The use and influence of illustrations is growing due to the never-ending possibilities achievable using 2D or 3D techniques. Illustration can also help leave a lasting impression on your customers due to the uniqueness of them. When it comes to creating marketing material for your business, original and distinct material with the right illustrations can help boost your products.\nAny website can be let down by its weakest link. A purpose of design is to deliver on the goals on the website. Engaging imagery can boost success rates, poor photography can severely hinder.\nGive your designers the tools to best meet your goals and present yourself in the best possible light, you won't regret it.",

        "title": "SCOTUS Declined Their Case. Why It\u2019s Not the End of the Diocese of South Carolina",
        "raw_content": "Briley Hughes | June 28, 2018\nThe morning of Monday, June 11th, was depressing, and not just because the beginning of the week snuck up on me or because clouds dampened the mood and didn\u2019t show signs of clearing. As I sipped at my coffee and rummaged through the ad-happy digital frontpages of South Carolina\u2019s newspapers, I stumbled upon a headline in the Post and Courier that immediately induced my downheartedness: \u201cUS Supreme Court declines review of Episcopal property dispute from South Carolina.\u201d\nI was cognizant of this possibility, though for some reason my generally pessimistic (or realistic, as I prefer to define it) outlook on life gave way to an optimistic hope on an issue that Dr. Oran Smith has called \u201cone of the most important religious freedom cases in South Carolina history.\u201d For that very reason and for months everyone at Palmetto Family Council dedicated many hours to the Diocese of South Carolina in their case against the liberal Episcopal Church in the United States (ECUSA) denomination headquartered in New York. We all knew the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) could rule against the conservative Diocese, but I wasn\u2019t necessarily prepared for the news \u2013 justice and truth were on our side, after all.\nFor years now, the ECUSA has progressed further down a theologically liberal rabbit hole \u2013 a path that includes denying the centrality of Christ, questioning the authority of Scripture and marginalizing leaders who hold traditional beliefs on gender and sexuality issues \u2013 making the position within the denomination for a conservative chapter like the Diocese of South Carolina nearly untenable.\nFinally, the situation came to a head in 2012. Under the leadership of Bishop Mark Lawrence and following the example of other conservative chapters, the Diocese of South Carolina removed itself from the ECUSA and aligned instead with the Bible-believing Anglican Church in North America, igniting what has become years of legal disputes over at least 28 parish churches worth millions of dollars. These properties are titled and held in the name of the Diocese of South Carolina.\nThe South Carolina Supreme Court ruled on The Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of South Carolina v. The Episcopal Church in 2017 \u2013 a 3-2 ruling favoring ECUSA\u2019s ownership of the property. Following a decline of a petition to rehear the case by the South Carolina Supreme Court despite clear judicial abuse (thanks in part to Justice Kaye Hearn failing to recuse herself despite a clear conflict of interest), the case made its way to the highest court in the land.\nAs you know by now, SCOTUS followed the example of the South Carolina court. Seemingly the last hope for the Diocese was now gone.\nWhile processing the news, I couldn\u2019t help but think of the estimated 23,000 Christians belonging to the Diocese of South Carolina who would lose their place of worship. The same buildings that many of their ancestors paid for and worshipped in for three centuries. Where would they go? What was the mood?\nTuesday morning rolled around and I rapped three times and stepped through the pale-colored doorway located a few feet away from my desk. That door opens into the office of my colleague and Palmetto Family\u2019s point man on this issue, Erik Corcoran.\nErik leads over 350 pastors in Palmetto Family\u2019s pastor coalition, the Nehemiah Network. Bringing those pastors together in the first place required a small miracle, but mobilizing them to work together \u2013 especially on an issue that fell on denominational lines \u2013 would be nearly impossible. But in fact, Erik had accomplished the nearly impossible \u2013 uniting hundreds of diverse pastors from over a dozen different denominations in defense of their Christian brothers and sisters of the Diocese. I wanted to share with him the news and find out if he had been in touch with the Diocese.\nHe had not, so immediately following our conversation, Erik called the Reverend Canon Jim Lewis who has been the liaison between the Diocese and Palmetto Family. Though the conversation began with a somber tone, it almost immediately bent to the upbeat and positive, to my confusion and surprise. \u201cI wanted to call Reverend Lewis to let him know that we are praying for him and to get his thoughts,\u201d said Erik. \u201cBut he immediately changed my perspective on the situation and what the future may hold. They\u2019re \u2018cautiously optimistic\u2019 after the ruling.\u201d I needed more details, so I began an email conversation with Reverend Lewis.\n\u201cWhat can be said is that denial has nothing to do with the merits of the case. It is not a subtle way of passing judgement, said Reverend Lewis. He continued: \u201cIn this instance, the same day they dismissed our case, they also dismissed the Eden Prairie case of a Presbyterian congregation successful in leaving their PCUSA denomination. Parallel facts. Opposite outcome.\u201d\nIf the situations in the Eden Prairie case and Diocese of South Carolina case are parallel, why then would the Supreme Court dismiss two cases despite their incongruent outcomes on the same day? To get the answer, you must understand the foundational legal argument in this case: Neutral Principles of Law.\nIn a controversial 1959 article in the Harvard Law Review, Professor Herbert Wechsler first introduced the term \u201cNeutral Principles of Law.\u201d Shortly thereafter, courts began applying Neutral Principles to cases involving control of property in hierarchical churches \u2013 exactly like The Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of South Carolina v. The Episcopal Church.\nThe basic philosophy behind the Neutral Principles of Law is the belief that courts should disregard church doctrine in resolving church ownership disputes. Since they are inherently secular, courts must adhere to secular, and therefore, neutral values. Neutral Principles leaves no wiggle room for religious or doctrinal consideration in property deeds, local parish charters, national church constitutions or state statutes.\nUnfortunately, courts across the country \u2013 both state and federal \u2013 vacillate in their interpretation of what exactly \u201cneutral\u201d means. Some courts apply the principles by following well-established state laws to settling property disputes (called the \u201cstrict approach\u201d); whereas, other courts do not believe national churches should be bound by state law and instead defer to their unilateral rules and canons (defined as the \u201chybrid approach\u201d). Courts following the hybrid approach believe that requiring a national church to comply with ordinary state law would impose a constitutionally impermissible burden on the national church by violating the First Amendment and the Free Exercise Clause.\nThe \u201chybrid approach,\u201d though, fails in the original purpose of the Neutral Principles \u2013 to be neutral and secular by following state property laws. By removing from national churches the burden of state laws and by deferring to their rules, these courts instead place their thumb on the scale in favor of national churches over local parishes.\nThis reasoning is exactly what the South Carolina Supreme Court used to decide the Diocese of South Carolina case.\nIn their petition to the Supreme Court to review their case (a Writ of Certiorari), the Diocese explains that, \u201c[i]f this dispute arose between two secular organizations, or between a religious and a secular organization, the party standing in Petitioners\u2019 shoes would have prevailed.\u201d\nDespite the Diocese case being called by some as \u201cpossibly the worst application of so-called \u2018neutral principles\u2019 on record,\u201d the Supreme Court has made a habit of declining these cases and passing on the opportunity to clarify the interpretation of Neutral Principles. And that explains how two cases with nearly identical facts, but opposite outcomes were turned down by the Supreme Court.\nObviously, my curiosity still revolved around why the Diocese was \u201ccautiously optimistic\u201d about the ruling when everything I was reading suggested that this denial ended the matter.\nWhen asked this question, Reverend Lewis said that, \u201c[i]n its argument for why the Supreme Court should not review our case, The Episcopal Church attorneys argued it was too \u2018fractured\u2019 to be used for setting precedent. On that one point, we would agree. The South Carolina ruling is composed of five separate opinions that do not agree on either legal principles or outcomes. Interpreting what the conflicting legal opinions in this ruling actually mean and how they will apply will require further adjudication by the courts. We continue to believe the facts and law of the case favor our positions.\u201d\nAs the case returns to the Dorchester County court later this summer where it originated and a judge considers several motions one of which is the motion to execute the South Carolina Supreme Court\u2019s decision, Reverend Lewis and the Diocese appear confident that this motion cannot be implemented until \u201cnumerous significant and complicated legal questions are answered.\u201d The Diocese then can hope and pray that because the facts and laws indeed favor their position, the legal process still has time to correct the situation. Even if that means a second trip to the South Carolina Supreme Court.\nBut Reverend Lewis isn\u2019t content with just hoping and praying alone: \u201cPlease pray for the courage and resolve of all the people in our congregations. And pray in particular that we might all keep the first thing first, which is the faithful proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The litigation too easily becomes a distraction from the ministry we know we need to be about. The Diocese is deeply grateful for the prayerful support of our brothers and sisters in Christ across the state of South Carolina.\u201d\nPhoto Credit: Diocese of South Carolina Facebook Page",

I understand that a group of international donors to the Occupied Palestinian Territories UN Humanitarian Pooled Fund wrote to the Israeli authorities to note their concerns about confiscation of several humanitarian assistance projects. The UK is not part of this fund.\nThe UK remains extremely concerned at the large increase in demolitions and confiscations in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since the start of 2016, compared to the monthly average in 2015, and continues to raise this with the Israeli authorities. Demolitions and the evictions of Palestinians from their homes cause unnecessary suffering, are harmful to the peace process, and in all but the most exceptional of cases are contrary to international humanitarian law.",

        "title": "In 2018 the DOJ recovered 2.5 Billion dollars from Healthcare Fraud - Patient Options",
        "raw_content": "Welcome to the new year. Lets begin by looking back. The DOJ has just released it\u2019s final total funds recovered figure for 2018\u2026 It is 2.5B dollars. Lets take a look right from the horse\u2019s mouth on the justice.gov website. Keep in mind that this is just federal dollars that we are talking about here and says nothing about the money recovered by third party insurers.\nThe Department of Justice obtained more than $2.8 billion in settlements and judgments from civil cases involving fraud and false claims against the government in the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 2018, Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General Jesse Panuccio and Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt of the Department of Justice\u2019s Civil Division announced today. Recoveries since 1986, when Congress substantially strengthened the civil False Claims Act, now total more than $59 billion.\n\u201cEvery year, the submission of false claims to the government cheats the American taxpayer out of billions of dollars,\u201d said Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General Panuccio. \u201cIn some cases, unscrupulous actors undermine federal healthcare programs or circumvent safeguards meant to protect the public health. In other instances, deceitful contractors overcharge our military or sell faulty equipment to our law enforcement agencies. Such fraud will not be tolerated by the Department of Justice. The nearly three billion dollars recovered by the Civil Division represents the Department\u2019s continued commitment to fighting fraudsters and cheats on behalf of the American taxpayer.\u201d\n\u201cThe False Claims Act was originally passed in response to rampant fraud perpetrated against the United States military during the Civil War. Back then, crooked contractors defrauded the Union Army by selling it sick mules, lame horses, sawdust instead of gunpowder, and rotted ships with fresh paint. Unfortunately, what we see today is just a modern version of the same thing \u2014 deceptive and fraudulent practices directed at the U.S. government and the American taxpayer,\u201d said Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt. \u201cThe Department of Justice has placed a high priority on rooting out and pursuing those who cheat government programs for their own gain. The recoveries announced today are a message that fraud and dishonesty will not be tolerated.\u201d\nOf the $2.8 billion in settlements and judgments recovered by the Department of Justice this past fiscal year, $2.5 billion involved the health care industry, including drug and medical device manufacturers, managed care providers, hospitals, pharmacies, hospice organizations, laboratories, and physicians. This is the ninth consecutive year that the Department\u2019s civil health care fraud settlements and judgments have exceeded $2 billion. The recoveries included in the $2.5 billion reflect only federal losses but, in many of these cases, the Department was instrumental in recovering additional millions of dollars for state Medicaid programs.\nIn addition to combatting health care fraud, the False Claims Act serves as the government\u2019s primary civil remedy to redress false claims for federal funds and property involving a multitude of government operations and contracts. These areas range from defense and national security to import tariffs and small business programs.\nIn 1986, Congress strengthened the Act by increasing incentives for whistleblowers to file lawsuits alleging false claims on behalf of the government. These whistleblower, or qui tam, actions comprise a significant percentage of the False Claims Act cases that are filed. If the government prevails in a qui tamaction, the whistleblower, also known as the relator, receives up to 30 percent of the recovery. Whistleblowers filed 645 qui tam suits in fiscal year 2018, and this past year the Department recovered over $2.1 billion in these and earlier filed suits.\nThe Department investigates and resolves matters involving a wide array of health care providers, goods, and services. The Department\u2019s health care fraud enforcement efforts recover money for federal programs that fund health care for our nation\u2019s most vulnerable and deserving citizens, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and TRICARE. But just as important, the Department\u2019s vigorous pursuit of health care fraud prevents billions more in losses by deterring those who might otherwise try to cheat the system for their own gain.\nThe largest recoveries involving the health care industry this past year came from the drug and medical device industry. In one matter, AmerisourceBergen Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries paid $625 million to resolve allegations that they sought to circumvent important safeguards intended to preserve the integrity of the nation\u2019s drug supply and profit from the repackaging of certain drugs supplied to cancer-stricken patients. Of that amount, $581.8 million was paid to the federal government and $43.2 million was paid to state Medicaid programs. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/amerisourcebergen-corporation-agrees-pay-625-million-resolve-allegations-it-illegally. In another matter, the medical device manufacturer Alere paid $33.2 million to resolve allegations that it sold a materially unreliable testing device that was intended to aid clinicians in the diagnosis of drug overdoses, acute coronary syndrome and other serious conditions. Of the $33.2 million paid by Alere, $28.4 million was returned to the federal government and $4.8 million was returned to state Medicaid programs. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/alere-pay-us-332-million-settle-false-claims-act-allegations-relating-unreliable-diagnostic.\nThe Department has investigated efforts by drug manufacturers to facilitate increases in drug prices by funding the co-payments of Medicare patients. Congress included co-pay requirements in the Medicare program, in part, to serve as a check on health care costs, including the prices that pharmaceutical manufacturers can demand for their drugs. This year, pharmaceutical company United Therapeutics Corporation, a seller of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) drugs, paid $210 million to resolve allegations that it used a foundation as an illegal conduit to pay the co-pay obligations of thousands of Medicare patients taking its PAH drugs. https://www.justice.gov/usao-ma/pr/united-therapeutics-agrees-pay-210-million-resolve-allegations-it-paid-kickbacks-through. In addition, the drug manufacturer Pfizer paid approximately $23.85 million to resolve claims that it used a foundation as a conduit to pay the co-pays of Medicare patients taking Pfizer drugs. The government alleged that Pfizer raised the price of one of those drugs by 40 percent in just three months. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/drug-maker-pfizer-agrees-pay-2385-million-resolve-false-claims-act-liability-paying-kickbacks.\nThe Department also reported substantial recoveries from other health care providers. In a matter that came to light in part by a voluntary disclosure by the company to the Department, HealthCare Partners Holdings LLC (HCP), doing business as DaVita Medical Holdings LLC, paid $270 million to resolve its liability for providing inaccurate information that caused Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAOs) to receive inflated Medicare payments. DaVita acquired HCP, a large California-based independent physician association, in 2012 and disclosed to the government various improper practices that were instituted by HCP. In addition, this settlement resolved whistleblower allegations that HCP engaged in \u201cone-way\u201d chart reviews in which it scoured its patients\u2019 medical records to find additional diagnoses that enabled managed care plans to obtain added revenue from the Medicare program. At the same time, however, it ignored inaccurate diagnosis codes revealed by its reviews that, if deleted, would have decreased Medicare reimbursement or required the plans to repay money to Medicare. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/medicare-advantage-provider-pay-270-million-settle-false-claims-act-liabilities. In 2017, the Department filed suit against UnitedHealth Group Inc. (UHG) alleging similar allegations that UHG knowingly obtained inflated risk adjustment payments based on untruthful and inaccurate information about the health status of beneficiaries enrolled in UHG\u2019s Medicare Advantage Plans throughout the United States. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/united-states-intervenes-second-false-claims-act-lawsuit-alleging-unitedhealth-group-inc. That litigation is ongoing.\nIn a matter that concluded in both a civil recovery and criminal plea, the former hospital chain Health Management Associates (HMA) paid over $216 million to resolve civil allegations that it billed government health care programs for more-costly inpatient services that should have been billed as observation or out-patient services, paid illegal remuneration to physicians in return for patient referrals to HMA hospitals, and inflated claims for emergency department facility fees. In addition to these civil recoveries, HMA\u2019s subsidiary, Carlisle HMA Inc., pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud arising from illegal conduct designed to aggressively increase admissions to the hospital and paid a $35 million monetary penalty. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/hospital-chain-will-pay-over-260-million-resolve-false-billing-and-kickback-allegations-one. In another matter, William Beaumont Hospital, a regional hospital system based in the Detroit, Michigan area, paid $84.5 million to resolve allegations of improper relationships with eight referring physicians intended to induce patient referrals. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/detroit-area-hospital-system-pay-845-million-settle-false-claims-act-allegations-arising.\nAs some of the matters described illustrate, the Department continued to place great importance on enforcing the safeguards contained within the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS). This law was enacted to ensure that clinical decisions and medical services are provided to patients based on their medical needs and not on the improper financial considerations of providers. Congress has made clear that claims submitted to federal health care programs in violation of the AKS are \u201cfalse\u201d claims for purposes of the False Claims Act.\nIn the past year, the Department also pursued a variety of fraud matters involving the government\u2019s purchase of goods and services. Toyobo Co. Ltd. of Japan and its American subsidiary, Toyobo U.S.A. Inc., f/k/a Toyobo America Inc. (collectively, Toyobo), paid $66 million to resolve claims that they sold defective Zylon fiber used in bullet proof vests that the United States purchased for federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies. The United States further alleged that between at least 2001 and 2005, Toyobo, the sole manufacturer of Zylon fiber, knew that Zylon degraded quickly in normal heat and humidity and that this degradation rendered bullet proof vests containing Zylon unfit for use. The United States alleged that Toyobo nonetheless actively marketed Zylon fiber for bullet proof vests, published misleading data that understated the degradation problem and, when one body armor manufacturer recalled some of its Zylon-containing vests in late 2003, started a public relations campaign designed to influence other body armor manufacturers to keep selling Zylon-containing vests. Toyobo\u2019s actions allegedly delayed by several years the government\u2019s efforts to determine the true extent of Zylon degradation. Finally, in August 2005, the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) completed a study of Zylon-containing vests and found that more than 50 percent of used vests could not stop bullets that they had been certified to stop. Thereafter, all Zylon-containing vests were decertified for use. With this year\u2019s Toyobo settlement, more than $132 million has been recovered by the Department in False Claims Act matters involving the manufacture, distribution or sale of Zylon by body armor manufacturers, weavers, and international trading companies. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/japanese-fiber-manufacturer-pay-66-million-alleged-false-claims-related-defective-bullet.\nUnited Kingdom marine services contractor, Inchcape Shipping Services Holdings Limited, and certain of its subsidiaries paid $20 million to resolve allegations that they overbilled the U.S. Navy under contracts to provide services to Navy ships at ports in several regions throughout the world, including southwest Asia, Africa, Panama, North America, South America and Mexico. In its suit, the government alleged that Inchcape knowingly overbilled the Navy by submitting invoices that overstated the quantity of goods and services provided, billing at rates in excess of applicable contract rates, and double-billing for some goods and services. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/united-states-settles-lawsuit-alleging-contractor-falsely-overcharged-us-navy-ship-husbanding.\nIn another matter, TrellisWare Technologies Inc., a communications company located in San Diego, California, paid over $12 million to settle allegations that it was ineligible for multiple Small Business Innovation and Research (SBIR) contracts it had entered into with the Navy, Army, and Air Force. The SBIR program is designed to stimulate technological innovation by funding small businesses to engage in federal research and development efforts. The United States alleged that TrellisWare was not eligible for SBIR awards because it was actually a majority-owned subsidiary of a large company at the time it was awarded and performed the SBIR contracts. https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdca/pr/san-diego-communications-company-pays-more-12-million-settle-false-claim-act.\nIn addition, 3M Company, headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, paid $9.1 million to resolve allegations that it knowingly sold dual-ended Combat Arms Earplugs to the United States military without disclosing defects that hampered the effectiveness of the hearing protection device. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/3m-company-agrees-pay-91-million-resolve-allegations-it-supplied-united-states-defective-dual.\nOther Fraud Recoveries\nThe number and variety of judgments and settlements announced during fiscal year 2018 illustrate the diversity of fraud cases pursued by the Department. For example, in February 2018, Deloitte & Touche LLP agreed to pay $149.5 million to resolve potential False Claims Act liability arising from Deloitte\u2019s role as the independent outside auditor of Taylor, Bean & Whitaker Mortgage Corp. (TBW), a failed originator of mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) in the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Deloitte served as TBW\u2019s independent outside auditor during the time TBW had been engaged in a long-running fraudulent scheme involving, among other things, the purported sale of fictitious or double-pledged mortgage loans. The United States alleged that Deloitte\u2019s audits knowingly deviated from applicable auditing standards and therefore failed to detect TBW\u2019s fraudulent conduct and materially false and misleading financial statements. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/deloitte-touche-agrees-pay-1495-million-settle-claims-arising-its-audits-failed-mortgage.\nThe False Claims Act was also used this past year to redress avoidance of antidumping duties that are in place to protect against foreign companies \u201cdumping\u201d products on the U.S. market at prices below cost. The Department of Commerce assesses, and the Department of Homeland Security\u2019s Customs and Border Protection collects, these duties to protect U.S. businesses and level the playing field for domestic products. This year, the Virginia-based home furnishings company, Bassett Mirror Company, paid $10.5 million to resolve allegations that it knowingly made false statements on customs declarations to avoid paying antidumping duties on wooden bedroom furniture imported from the People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC). The Department alleged that between January 2009 and February 2014, Bassett Mirror evaded these antidumping duties by knowingly misclassifying the furniture as non-bedroom furniture on its official import documents. At the time of the alleged conduct in this case, wooden bedroom furniture from the PRC was subject to a 216 percent antidumping duty; non-bedroom furniture was not subject to an antidumping duty. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/bassett-mirror-company-agrees-pay-105-million-settle-false-claims-act-allegations-relating. Similarly, textile importer American Dawn Inc. agreed to pay over $2.3 million to resolve allegations that it intentionally misclassified goods imported into the United States, such as bath and shop towels as polishing cloths, in order to pay lower tariff rates. https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndga/pr/textile-importer-resolves-false-claims-act-allegations-0.\nAnd in a matter illustrating the government\u2019s continuing efforts to hold accountable those who seek to take improper advantage of a program that allows companies to remove gas from federal lands upon payment of royalties to the federal government, Citation Oil & Gas Corp. and its affiliates, Citation 2002 Investment Limited Partnership and Citation 2004 Investment Limited Partnership, paid $2.25 million to resolve allegations that they underpaid royalties owed on natural gas produced from federal lands in Wyoming. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/citation-companies-agree-pay-225-million-settle-civil-false-claims-act-allegations.\nHolding Individuals Accountable\nThe Department continued its commitment to use the False Claims Act and other civil remedies to deter and redress fraud by individuals as well as corporations. For example, after a two-week jury trial, the Department obtained judgments totaling more than $114 million against three individuals who were found to have paid physicians illegal remuneration disguised as \u201chandling fees\u201d of between $10 and $17 for each patient they referred to two blood testing laboratories: Health Diagnostic Laboratory of Richmond, Virginia (HDL), and Singulex Inc., of Alameda, California (Singulex). The government also introduced evidence at trial that this kickback scheme resulted in physicians referring patients to HDL and Singulex for medically unnecessary tests, which were then billed to federal health care programs. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/united-states-obtains-114-million-judgment-against-three-individuals-paying-kickbacks.\nIn another kickback case, based on the jury\u2019s verdict for the United States, the court awarded judgment of $5.5 million against neurosurgeon Dr. Sonjay Fonn, his fianc\u00e9 Ms. Deborah Seeger, and their professional corporations DS Medical and Midwest Neurosurgeons. The evidence showed that Dr. Fonn performed spinal fusion surgery using implants for which his fianc\u00e9 received commissions, which were used to benefit Dr. Fonn in the form of lavish purchases such as a yacht and home improvements. https://www.justice.gov/usao-edmo/pr/federal-judge-trebles-damages-and-imposes-civil-penalties-against-cape-girardeau.\nIn addition, former professional cyclist Lance Armstrong paid $5 million to resolve a lawsuit alleging that his admitted use of performance-enhancing drugs and methods (PEDs) resulted in the submission of millions of dollars in false claims for sponsorship payments to the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), which sponsored Armstrong\u2019s cycling team during six of the seven years Armstrong was deemed the winner of the Tour de France. The lawsuit alleged that Armstrong and his team regularly and systematically employed PEDs, that Armstrong made numerous false statements denying his PED use, and that Armstrong took active measures to conceal his PED use during the USPS sponsorship and even after the sponsorship ended. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/lance-armstrong-agrees-pay-5-million-settle-false-claims-allegations-arising-violation-anti.\nPrime Healthcare Services Inc., Prime Healthcare Foundation Inc., and Prime Healthcare Management Inc. (collectively \u201cPrime\u201d), and Prime\u2019s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Prem Reddy, paid $65 million to settle allegations that 14 Prime hospitals in California knowingly submitted false claims to Medicare by admitting patients who required only less costly, outpatient care and by billing for more expensive patient diagnoses than the patients had. Dr. Reddy paid $3.25 million of the overall settlement. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/prime-healthcare-services-and-ceo-pay-65-million-settle-false-claims-act-allegations. Dr. Arthur S. Portnow of Sarasota, Florida, the owner and operator of Arthur S. Portnow, P.A., d/b/a Apple Medical and Cardiovascular Group, d/b/a Apple Medical Group, agreed to pay $1.95 million to resolve allegations that he and his practice violated the False Claims Act by knowingly seeking reimbursement for medically unnecessary ultrasound tests that were performed on Medicare beneficiaries. The government also alleged that Dr. Portnow falsified patient records in an effort to justify those unnecessary ultrasounds. https://www.justice.gov/usao-mdfl/pr/sarasota-physician-agrees-pay-195-million-resolve-false-claims-act-allegations. Dr. Michael Frey, M.D., a pain management specialist and one of the two principal owners of Advanced Pain Management Specialists P.A. in Fort Myers, Florida, agreed to pay $2.8 million to resolve allegations that he violated the False Claims Act in a number of ways, including receiving illegal kickbacks and by ordering medically unnecessary laboratory tests. https://www.justice.gov/usao-mdfl/pr/fort-myers-pain-management-physician-pleads-guilty-healthcare-offenses-and-agrees-28.\nRecoveries in Whistleblower Suits\nOf the $2.8 billion in settlements and judgments reported by the government in fiscal year 2018, over $2.1 billion arose from lawsuits filed under the qui tamprovisions of the False Claims Act. During the same period, the government paid out $301 million to the individuals who exposed fraud and false claims by filing these actions.\nThe number of lawsuits filed under the qui tam provisions of the Act has grown significantly since 1986, with 645 qui tam suits filed this past year \u2013 an average of more than 12 new cases every week.\n\u201cWhistleblowers have played a vital role in unmasking fraudulent schemes that might otherwise evade detection,\u201d said Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt. \u201cThe taxpayers owe a debt of gratitude to those who often put much on the line to expose such schemes.\u201d\nIn 1986, Senator Charles Grassley and Representative Howard Berman led the successful efforts in Congress to amend the False Claims Act to, among other things, encourage whistleblowers to come forward with allegations of fraud. In 2009 and 2010, additional improvements were made to the False Claims Act and its whistleblower provisions. Congress also included in the False Claims Act authority for the government to dismiss cases, and during the past year the government made increasing use of this tool to help prioritize the use of government resources.\nFinally, Assistant Attorney General Hunt commended the many dedicated public servants throughout the Department\u2019s Civil Division and the U.S. Attorneys\u2019 Offices, as well as the agency Offices of Inspector General and the many other federal and state agencies that contributed to the Department\u2019s False Claims Act recoveries this past fiscal year. \u201cThe accomplishments announced today would not have been possible but for the hard work of the men and women throughout the government who work tirelessly to protect the interests of taxpayers,\u201d said Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt. \u201cI have served in the Civil Division for many years and it is now my great honor to lead this Division. I am grateful to work alongside so many passionate, dedicated, and talented employees who have committed their careers to serving the American people and defending the interests of our great nation.\u201d\nHere at Patient Options we are here to help you avoid these headaches and protect you against false fraud accusations.

        "raw_content": "Bradley Klapper and Michael Weissenstein, Associated Press Bradley Klapper and Michael Weissenstein, Associated Press\nhttps://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/cuba-dissidents-wont-attend-u-s-embassy-event\nCuba dissidents won\u2019t attend U.S. Embassy event\nWorld Aug 12, 2015 7:58 AM EST\nWASHINGTON \u2014 The Obama administration doesn\u2019t plan to invite Cuban dissidents to Secretary of State John Kerry\u2019s historic flag-raising at the U.S. Embassy in Havana on Friday, vividly illustrating how U.S. policy is shifting focus from the island\u2019s opposition to its single-party government. Instead, Kerry intends to meet more quietly with prominent activists later in the day, officials said.\nThe Cuban opposition has occupied the center of U.S. policy toward the island since the nations cut diplomatic relations in 1961. The Cuban government labels its domestic opponents as traitorous U.S. mercenaries. As the two countries have moved to restore relations, Cuba has almost entirely stopped meeting with American politicians who visit dissidents during trips to Havana.\nThat presented a quandary for U.S. officials organizing the ceremony to mark the reopening of the embassy on Havana\u2019s historic waterfront. Inviting dissidents would risk a boycott by Cuban officials including those who negotiated with the U.S. after Presidents Barack Obama and Raul Castro declared detente on Dec. 17. Excluding dissidents would certainly provoke fierce criticism from opponents of Obama\u2019s new policy, including Cuban-American Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio.\nOfficials familiar with the plans for Kerry\u2019s visit, the first by a sitting U.S. secretary of state to Cuba since World War II, told The Associated Press that a compromise was in the works. The dissidents won\u2019t be invited to the embassy event but a small group will meet with Kerry at the U.S. chief of mission\u2019s home in the afternoon, where a lower-key, flag-raising ceremony is scheduled.\nTheir presence at the embassy would have risked setting back the new spirit of cooperation the U.S. hopes to engender, according to the officials, who weren\u2019t authorized to speak publicly about internal planning and demanded anonymity. But not meeting them at all, they said, would send an equally bad signal.\n\u201cIt wouldn\u2019t be surprising if North American diplomats prioritize contacts with the Cuban government,\u201d said Elizardo Sanchez, head of the Cuban Commission on Human Rights and National Reconciliation, a relatively moderate dissident group. \u201cIf we show up, they leave.\u201d\nThe Obama administration says it is normalizing ties with Cuba after more than 50 years of hostility failed to shake the communist state\u2019s hold on power. It argues that dealing directly with Cuba over issues ranging from human rights to trade is far likelier to produce democratic and free-market reforms over the long term.\nKey dissidents told the AP late Tuesday that they had not received invitations to any of Friday\u2019s events.\nDissident Yoani Sanchez\u2019s online newspaper 14ymedio has received no credential for the U.S. Embassy event, said editor Reinaldo Escobar, who is married to Sanchez.\n\u201cThe right thing to do would be to invite us and hear us out despite the fact that we don\u2019t agree with the new U.S. policy,\u201d said Antonio Rodiles, head of the dissident group Estado de SATS.\nIn a letter to Kerry Tuesday, Rubio named Rodiles as one of the dissidents who should be invited to the embassy.\n\u201cThey, among many others, and not the Castro family, are the legitimate representatives of the Cuban people,\u201d Rubio said.\nThe cautious approach is consistent with how Obama has handled the question of support for dissidents since he and Castro announced a prisoner swap in December and their intention to create a broader improvement in relations. The process has resulted in unilateral steps by Obama to ease the economic embargo on Cuba and last month\u2019s formal upgrading of both countries\u2019 interests sections into full-fledged embassies.\nWhen senior diplomat Roberta Jacobson held talks in Havana in January, she met several government critics at the end of her historic trip but was restrained in her criticism of the government. Since then, American politicians have flooded Havana to see the sights, meet the country\u2019s new entrepreneurs and discuss possibly ending the U.S. embargo with leaders of the communist government.\nAccording to an Associated Press count that matches tallies by leading dissidents, more than 20 U.S. lawmakers have visited Cuba since February without meeting the opposition groups that were once obligatory for congressional delegations.\nThis week, after Cuba briefly rounded up dozens of protesting dissidents, the U.S. didn\u2019t suggest such action would delay Kerry\u2019s trip or cool relations.\n\u201cThe United States will continue to advocate for the rights to peaceful assembly, association and freedom of expression and religion, and we\u2019re going to continue to voice our support for improved human rights conditions and democratic reforms in Cuba,\u201d State Department spokesman John Kirby said.\nAlong with the flag-raising events, Kerry will meet Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez. The pair could hold a joint news conference, in what would surely be a first since the Cuban Revolution toppled U.S.-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista in 1959. Kerry also plans a short walk around Cuba\u2019s 500-year-old capital, officials said.\nWeissenstein reported from Havana.\nLeft: Cubans flags are reflected at the U.S. Embassy in Havana on July 27.

        "raw_content": "Home Church News Pastor's Blog Questioning God\nHappy second month of the New Year!!\nNo, I don\u2019t have my calendar wrong. Of course it\u2019s January, and of course this is when we most commonly celebrate the New Year. But did you know that \u2013 according to the Christian calendar \u2013 we started our new year back on November 30, 2014?\nThe Christian year starts with Advent, the season of prepa- ration that culminates in Christmas. We then move through the twelve days of Christmas (and a partridge in a pear tree!) before Epiphany and the appropriately named \u201cSeason After the Epiphany.\u201d\nPastor\u2019s note: to learn more about the seasons of the Church and the colors we sometimes use to represent those seasons, check out this video from Chuck Knows Church.\n\ufffcIt seems natural that most times when we start a new thing, we have questions. When I got my first job, I asked a lot of questions. When I first started learning to drive, I had a ton of questions! When my kids were born, there were oh so many questions! And when I first came here to PB UMC, I was filled with questions. And mostly there are still questions for me in all of these categories and many more.\nI think that asking questions is a natural thing. I don\u2019t think that we can ask too many questions, because questions can help us to know more about the world around us and also about ourselves. I\u2019ve heard some people suggest that questioning is ok except in certain areas \u2013 like our faith. And I\u2019ve heard others criticize persons of faith as a crowd of lemmings who are (presumably) too dumb or too blind to ask deep and meaningful questions.\nI disagree with both of these, and I always encourage healthy and productive questions. I think we can grow profoundly in our faith by asking deep and challenging questions, and in fact I think we must ask these questions so that we don\u2019t get stagnant or stale in our understanding of God. For the six weeks between January 4th and February 8th, we will explore six questions that real people have asked about real faith. They are tangible and practical questions that affect nearly all of humanity. They are questions that I sought out using the tools of social media, and questions that were all deeply personal.\nIn the spirit of transparency, I will not be addressing some questions quite as specifically as they were asked. Instead, questions like, \u201cHow are Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon who died several years ago doing?\u201d will be addressed in a more general sense, because I think we all wonder what happens at the end of life in this world. Over the course of the six weeks of our sermon series, we will be exploring these questions:\nJanuary 4 \u2013 \u201cWhy can\u2019t we see God?\u201d\nJanuary 11 \u2013 \u201cWhy does God forgive us?\u201d\nJanuary 18 \u2013 \u201cHow do I know I\u2019m doing \u2018good\u2019 or \u2018the right thing\u2019 or \u2018what God wants\u2019?\u201d\nJanuary 25 \u2013 \u201cWhat happens when we die?\u201d\nFebruary 1 \u2013 \u201cHow many miracles (blessings) can we receive?\u201d (asked in a spirit of humble gratitude)\nFebruary 8 \u2013 \u201cWhy does God let bad things happen?\u201d\nThese are not questions where I think we will find simple answers. I think that over-simplifying these complex questions dishonors the complexity of the God from whom we ultimately seek answers. In some cases, we may not find an answer that suits us all.\nEven so, I believe that giving ourselves permission to ask and explore some of these questions is critical to our understanding of faith. And so I hope that you will join in this exploration of the nature of God as we ask deeply im- portant questions of faith together. May we all be strengthened as we journey together.\nSeason of Service for the Interfaith Shelter at\u2026",

        "raw_content": "You Are Here: Home \u00bb Blog \u00bb Video \u2013 U.S Indy Mag Wheels\nSpeaker: Glen from Performance Plus\nThis is Glen from Performance Plus and we\u2019re going to be reviewing the U.S. Indy Mag U101 wheel, or the dish mag.\nThe U.S. Indy Mag was a name that\u2019s been around for many, many years, along with Cragar, Ansen, American Racing back in the \u201860s. It got out of production a number of years ago and it\u2019s recently been brought back. The whole intent of bringing the U.S. Indy Mag line back was to go after the retro cars, to make wheels like they made back in the \u201860s and \u201870s, and I think they\u2019ve accomplished it with this wheel.\nAgain, this is a dish mag. They\u2019ve even gone as far as using the screw-on caps as a mount. As a kid, I used to do mounting and balancing and put these things on there. I hated these kind of caps because it took so long to screw every one of these screws in there and you got five per wheel and you got four wheels. I mean, it took an extra 20, 30 minutes just to do a mounting or balancing project.\nThey\u2019ve done a nice job with the polishing. They\u2019ve actually polished the windows, which on some of the older dish mags, they didn\u2019t have a polished window so they didn\u2019t look really nice. Some of them actually painted it black or just left it that rough cast finish.\nThe sizes of these that are available are 5\u201d, 7, 8, and 9\u2019s, and they are available only in a 15\u201d diameter. They\u2019re five-lug only and they\u2019re made, again, for the older muscle cars like the Camaros, the Mustangs, the El Caminos, Chargers, Challengers, Road Runners.\nThey also make it for the Dodge Dart. The Dodge Dart had a unique bolt pattern. It was a five on four and there\u2019s very few wheels these days that are available in a five on four bolt pattern. So, if you\u2019re looking for a wheel for your Dodge Dart, eureka! You found it.",

        "raw_content": "Alumni blog: Ishwar Kohale\u2019s first year at MIT\nIshwar came to Pestalozzi from India in 2010, graduating in 2012. He is now studying Biological Engineering at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). Here, he shares his freshman year experiences.\nI didn\u2019t even realise how fast my freshman year was going until it was over. I have been enjoying MIT so far, and I am really excited about the coming years. I am planning to major in Biological Engineering, and I took a class to explore the potential applications of this comparatively new discipline. In terms of academics, my freshman year was very productive. I took programming, microeconomics and other general institute requirement classes.\nBeside academics, I tried to get involved in International Development (ID). I lived in ID House (iHouse) last year which is a living-learning community at MIT, focused on doing community development projects in different parts of the world. I took a seminar in ID and attended guest lectures to explore different fields of ID. I worked on a cookstove education project with one of my friends in iHouse and a middle school teacher. Though I was not able to contribute much to the project, I learned the process of planning and doing the projects. I hope to do such projects in my village in India in the coming years, and live with the Pestalozzi\u2019s principles of Head, Hearts and Hands.\nI am currently doing research in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) over the summer. My research is focused on developing neurotransmitter specific contrast agents for MRI based on biological molecules using protein bioengineering methods. In addition to the general use of MRI in medical diagnostics, the research will help to visualize the internal body organs in greater detail, especially for studying neural systems in vivo. I am really enjoying my research work because I get to apply my knowledge in practice.\nI do remember, when I was doing the IB in the UK, I used to get excited about PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction to amplify DNA), gel electrophoresis and other complicated bio-chem terms. Now, I do those experiments and see the results for real! I feel so lucky that I get to work with Professors and PhD students in my freshman year; one of the best opportunities MIT provides to the students.\nIt's wonderful to see Ishwar fulfilling his potential, thanks to the scholarship and support he received from Pestalozzi. If you'd like to be part of a journey like Ishwar's, there are plenty of ways to support Pestalozzi students.",

        "raw_content": "Tech tips Technical tips ACTIK Information on LED lighting\nAs a headlamp manufacturer concerned for the safety of its customers, Petzl has chosen to present information in its product instructions about the risks to the eyes associated with LED lighting. For this, the company uses the EN 62471: 2008 standard, photobiological safety of lamps and devices using lamps, though it is not mandatory. This standard classifies lamps according to risk groups.\nLED lighting and blue light\nMost of today's headlamps are made with LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes). Currently, the most profitable way to make white LEDs is to combine a blue-wavelength diode with a yellow luminophore.\nAs seen in the diagram below, LEDs emit primarily blue light (wavelength 450-495 nm).\nEmission spectrum of a Petzl headlamp\nIn case of direct, repeated exposure at high power, blue light can harm the eyes: retinal damage, aggravation of macular degeneration, blinding. These risks are especially significant for children because of their higher sensitivity to blue light.\nThis is why as a headlamp manufacturer, Petzl has a duty to inform its customers of the existence of these risks, even if they are minimal for normal use of Petzl headlamps.\nThe EN 62471: 2008 standard on the photobiological safety of lamps provides a methodology for measuring and classifying the risks due to blue light emission.\nThe risk groups are as follows:\nRisk group 0: no risk.\nRisk group 1: low risk. The product presents no risk related to exposure limits under normal usage conditions.\nRisk group 2: moderate risk. The reflex to look away from the lamp suffices to reduce the risk.\nRisk group 3: high risk. The product can present a risk even with a momentary or short exposure.\nDepending on the risk group. the manufacturer must make a label and/or a specific informational notice.\nIt is important to underline that the risk level is partly related to the distance between the light source and the eye. Thus, moving away from the light source reduces the risk level. The risk level is also related to the duration of exposure.\nBrightness and beam shape are other factors influencing the risk level. Note that Petzl determines the risk level of its lamps by testing the worst-case scenario: a focused beam at maximum brightness.\nMoreover, the risk group is currently evaluated at 20 cm from the lamp, which is relatively close compared to a common accidental exposure.\nHow does Petzl communicate in its instructions?\nHere is an example of an informational insert on photobiological risk given in the Instructions for Use for Petzl headlamps:\nPetzl communicates about the maximum risk associated with its lamps, specifying the distances at which this risk level is reduced. For this example, the lamp is classified in risk group 2. The lamp moves to risk group 1 when it is at a distance of 1.3 m from the user's eyes.\nYou should know that most headlamps currently on the market are classified in a risk group greater than or equal to 1. However, few manufacturers communicate about this risk.\nRegardless of a lamp's risk level, we recommend:\n- never look directly at a lit headlamp\n- avoid aiming a headlamp beam into another person's eyes\n- do not leave a child alone with a headlamp, as children's eyes are especially sensitive to blue light\nFor more information, see the ANSES report: Health effects of lighting systems using light-emitting diodes (LEDs).",

        "raw_content": "Posted by PKSD Law Firm on Sep 16, 2016 in Personal Injury News\nAsbestos is a durable mineral that was widely used in construction until about the mid-1970s. The substance is heat and fire resistant and is versatile enough that it can be woven into fabrics. It is also resistant to various types of chemicals. For years, it was hailed as a miracle mineral until doctors and scientists discovered the harmful effects that it has on those who work with the substance.\nAsbestos exposure can cause mesothelioma, which is a fatal cancer. Mesothelioma affects the lining of the lungs. It can also affect the tissue that lines the stomach, heart and other vital organs. The lungs are by far the most common organ affected, however. There is no cure for mesothelioma, but sometimes doctors can catch it in time to remove tumors and take other remedial action.\nCertain industries suffered more exposure to this dangerous substance than others. Those that dealt with insulation were especially prone to exposure. Altering asbestos insulation in any way can release the asbestos particles into the air. They can then be inhaled by anyone in the area. That meant that even if you did not directly work with asbestos, you might have been exposed without realizing it.\nThe following industries saw increased exposure to asbestos because of its heavy use.\nShipbuilding \u2013 Asbestos was often used in pipe insulation.\nMilitary \u2013 Use was common in airplanes, ships, barracks and tanks.\nConstruction \u2013 Because of the heavy use of asbestos in insulation, construction workers were particularly prone to asbestos exposure.\nFirefighting \u2013 Most buildings had asbestos in the walls at one time. If a building caught fire, the asbestos particles were released into the air, leading to exposure.\nRailroad \u2013 Pipe insulation on trains also regularly used asbestos, and boxcars were often insulated with the material, causing exposure when repairing or altering cars.\nManufacturing/Factories \u2013 Asbestos was often mixed with other types of products, which exposed workers directly.\nIf you or someone you love has developed mesothelioma and you think it is related to asbestos exposure, you may have legal options. Call PSKD\u2019s Milwaukee mesothelioma lawyers for more information about your legal options.\nHow a Pre-Existing Condition May Affect Your Personal Injury Claim",

        "raw_content": "Mitigating disease \u2013 antibiotics on the farm\nDisease mitigation strategies include a variety of practices including vaccination, preventive treatment as well as biosecurity and husbandry practices. Administering vaccinations is a necessary and important step in maintaining the health of not only individual animals, but all of the pigs on the farm. Combining the use of vaccines along with strict biosecurity measures is very effective in maintaining pig health.\nAntibiotics are just one of many tools used to uphold Good Production Practices (GPP) to raise healthy farm animals. They are used to prevent, control or treat illness in pigs. Animals on farms, just like people in homes, get sick and without antibiotic treatment, many of these animals would suffer needlessly.\nIn some instances, outbreaks of treatable animal health issues are detected or expected in certain groups of animals or at certain times in their lives. In these cases, use of drugs approved for prevention or control of the disease can dramatically reduce the extent of the disease outbreak. Preventing or controlling the spread of disease is critical to keeping animals safe and healthy\u2014and to prevent suffering or unsafe conditions.\nVeterinarians play a key role in disease mitigation. Whether it be to prevent, control, or treat disease, veterinarians provide key insight on the development of the herd health plan and antibiotic protocols. U.S. pig farmers are encouraged to include their veterinarian in the discussion when developing and/or adjusting a given herd health plan.\nUsing antibiotics to care for sick pigs\nAmerica\u2019s pig farmers work closely with veterinarians to ensure that their pigs stay healthy. However, at times pigs need medical attention, which may require the use of antibiotics to treat illness. Responsible antibiotic use means using only what\u2019s necessary for pig health. This sensible approach means doing what\u2019s best for animal well-being, food safety and the environment.\nWhen farmers use antibiotics as prescribed by a veterinarian, pigs tend to give birth to healthier litters, get sick less often and recover faster, and suffer less premature death due to illness.\nIt is inevitable that in every swine production system, animals may become injured or ill. Euthanasia may be the best option to provide for the well-being of the individual animal. Additionally, applying a standardized protocol of timely euthanasia can minimize loss associated with the continued care of compromised pigs.\nAntibiotic principles outlined in PQA Plus\nPrinciple 1: Take appropriate steps to decrease the need for the application of antibiotics.\nPrinciple 2: Assess the advantages and disadvantages of all uses of antibiotics.\nPrinciple 3: Use antibiotics only when they will provide measurable benefits.\nPrinciple 4: Fully implement management practices described for responsible use of animal health products into daily operations.\nPrinciple 5: Have a working veterinarian/client/patient relationship and follow the responsible antibiotic use guidelines.",

        "title": "Microfinance for Women | Power of Love",
        "raw_content": "What is Microfinance? Microfinance programs have been successful globally, in helping women break the vicious circle of low education and income. These programs provide training in income generating skills and small loans (without collateral) to women in impoverished communities. Loan funds are used to start small businesses and earnings from these businesses help pay for food, medicines, rent and school fees. Worldwide repayment rates for micro credit vastly exceed that for traditional banking.\nCan we end poverty? We believe that together we can end poverty and hunger. As envisioned by the UN Sustainable Development Goals, this is possible by 2030.\nVision, Mission, Goals: Our vision is for impoverished communities to become sustainable, and more self-reliant. Our mission is that vulnerable women are economically and socially empowered and families are sustainable and more self-reliant. To achieve our mission of building sustainable families, we have implmeneted a women's empowerment program in Zambia. The goals of this program are to: (i) equip women with the tools to run a successful business, (ii) create conditions for women to be socially empowered, and (iii) ensure that the women have gathered enough capital and savings so they can continue to operate a profitable business even after graduating from the program.\nLocation: This program is located in Matero, one of the largest and poorest compounds in Lusaka, Zambia. The community of Matero is characterized with a high incidence of HIV, AIDS, and malaria and an unemployment rate upwards of 60%. Most residents are poor and live on less than $2 per day - defined as extreme poverty by the UN.\nNeed: Children living with HIV need proper nutrition and care. Unfortunately the AIDS epidemic has led millions of children being orphaned and destroyed the fabric of the African community. Many households are headed by grandmothers who are left with the responsibility of caring for five or more orphans. Most of these grandmothers have never been to school, have very few marketable skills, and no permanent source of income. Many women are living with HIV themselves and need our support so that they can take better of their families. Provision of training and small loans goes a long way in helping these women take steps toward self-reliance.\nExciting Developments in 2018\nThe following program activities were completed in 2018: (i) Added 50 new loans to bring the total number of active loans to 400 that benefit approximately 2800 family members, (ii) 175 new women were provided with business training and 93 women with refresher trainings, (iii) All women meet weekly to make repayments, learn from other business owners, and build social networks, (iv) All businesses are visited on site by the loans officer to provide business advice on product display, maintenance of accounts, book keeping, inventory management etc. (v) Members of a volunteer communtiy club mentor new loan recipients to face challenges, work hard and keep their children in school and (vi) loan recipients have become role models and enjoy a higher status in their community.\nLoan repayment rates are between 88-90% despite difficult circumstances faced by most women. Read more\nIn 2017, we completed the following program activities: (i) New loans provided to 53 women bringing the total number of loans to 400, (ii) A record number of 257 women were provided with business training, (iii) all women meet weekly to make repayments, learn from other business owners, and discuss issues of importance to them such as HIV prevention and care, importance of school, and challenges faced in running their businesses, (iv) Businesses are monitired as all businesses are visited on site by the loans officer to provide business advice on display, encourage maintenance of accounts, book keeping, inventory management etc., (v) Refresher training was provided to a group of 50 loan recipients, (vi) A few women have formed a club to mentor new loans recipients, women whose businesses may be struggling, and women facing challenges in running their businesses. Read more\nIn 2016, we were able to provide 100 new loans to first time women entrepreneurs and business training to 150 first time women entrepreneurs. A record number of 150 new businesses were launched in 2016. As a result of this program, more than 600 businesses are running in the community that add value by providing convenience (in terms of location, and quanity purchased), and diversity (businesses like hair salons are new to the community). Read more..\nOur Program is Unique?\nOur program is unique as it is designed for women who themselves may be HIV+, are the primary caregivers for HIV+ family members, and have very few marketable skills. Second, it is completely integrated with our pediatric HIV care, malaria prevention, and Safe Park programs, so we are able to support a family in multiple ways. For example, micro loans recipients are encouraged to enroll their HIV+ children in our pediatric HIV care program. If enrolled, the child receives food, medicine and a package of life-saving healthcare services. In addition, the loan recipient is provided with mosquito bed nets to keep the family free from malaria, and the child is encouraged to participate in our \u201cSafe Park\u201d program. Supporting first time women entrepreneurs in multiple ways also increases the probability of success of their business and leads to higher repayment rates.\nmkvsurvb5auhdlrq5lua2sadstzevurebu3wn-y2wia.jpeg\nTo date, POL has provided more than 2200 loans to women caregivers of HIV positive children. Repayment rates are between 88-90%.\nWomen enrolled in our micro loans program receive business training and loans to start a business. Earnings from these businesses enable women to pay for food, medicines, rent, and school expenses. Each woman is provided with three loans and by the end of the third loan cycle, most women have accumulated enough capital and expertise to run successful businesses.\nDiet and Health: The diet of all families improves significantly after a few months on the program. Most women report that they can afford 2-3 meals a day, as opposed to a single meal before they started their businesses. Better nutrition leads to improved health of the children, all of which results in increased school attendance and performance.\nHousehold Purchases: Most women are able to purchase household items like TVs, pots and pans, and toys for their children.\nEducation: Earnings from businesses help pay for school expenses (i.e. books, school bags, shoes, and uniforms). In addition, loan recipients learn the importance of keeping children in school and are motivated to work hard to provide continuous education for their children.\nSavings: The women start saving a small amount each week. Before joining this program, most women did not have any savings and less than 5% were saving via bank accounts. After a few months on the program most women have learnt to save a small amount each week and about 40% start savings bank accounts.\nImproved Location of Business: As the women progress successfully through loan cycles, they may move from selling from their homes to renting a shop in marketplaces with higher foot traffic.\nCapital Acquisition: Many women are able to increase their capital; this helps to sustain their business even after they have been weaned off the program.\nBusiness Expansion: Most women are able to expand their business by increasing the variety of merchandise they can offer.\nRole Models: Women become role models by sharing their knowledge with others in the community. In addition, several men play supporting roles by assisting their wives in running the business.\nPrevention of HIV: As a result of discussions during weekly meetings, women have increased knowledge about HIV prevention and care. After a few months many women come forward for testing for HIV which is the first step toward HIV prevention and spread.\nOverall, loan recipients are happier and look forward to a bright future due to improved health of their families, children attending school, and economic and social empowerment. Unlike a commercial loan program, the success of this program is not based on repayments, but on concrete proof that the recipients\u2019 lives are being improved. For stories of a few first time entreprenures click here.\nTo learn more about the impact of our loans program over the last six years see below:\nImpact of program activities in 2018\nImpact of our loans program in 2016\nPower of Love\u2019s micro loans program was launched in 2005 as a response to the devastation caused HIV and AIDS in Zambia. Most women in our program care for HIV positive family members and orphaned children and are themselves vulnerable to poverty and sickness. If they are provided with the ability generate income, they can support themselves while providing care that is essential in the community response to HIV and AIDS.\nHow does this program work? The first step is the identification of women who can benefit from this program. Beneficiaries are selected based on need, and their ability and willingness to run a business. Selected beneficiaries are required to particpate and complete a five-day business training. The business training includes modules on basic business theory, market investigation, purchasing and selling goods, and business promotion. On the last day of this training, participants are required to submit a simple business plan. After successfully completion of training, the women receive their first loan (they receive three loans over a span of 20-24 months). Loan recipients meet weekly to make repayments and discuss issues of concern such as challenges of running abusiness, caring for HIV+ children, HIV prevention, voluntary testing for HIV, the importance of keeping children in school etc. In addition, ongoing support is provided via business mentoring, refresher training, and regular field visits by the loan officer. As a result of this ongoing support, repayment rates are around 90%.\nLoan capital is a revolving fund; once the women graduate (after receiving three loans), the same loan capital is available for a new set of women.\nAt this time we have 400 current loan recipients running successful businesses. Direct beneficiaries are over 2,800 children and adults as each woman cares for seven people on average. Indirect beneficiaries are an additional 2000 people as the women share their knowledge with others and encourage them to work hard to support themselves. An addtional 350 women, who have graduated over the past several years, are running businesses that provide employment opportunities to community residents.\nOur goal for 2019 is to provide business training and new loans to an additional 100 women entrepreneurs. Please donate generously and give a gift of economic and social empowerment to women impacted by HIV and AIDS in Zambia.",

This makes BMW a Gobal Golf Player. The tournament has maintained its very own charm. There is a reason that no other event is so popular amongst pros and spectators. The world-class players as well as the number of spectators speak for themselves. Whereas in 1989 the event attracted 35,000 spectators, last year (in 2007) as many as 68,000 people came to see the players, a proof of the attractiveness of the event.Speech Colin Montgomerie:We have in Martin Kaymer here a great potential european golf player in the future. What he did, coming out, winning the rookie year and winning in Abu Dhabi so well, against the strengh of Westwood and Stenson, two top Ryder Cup players. To win that easily, if you like so, showed the great potential in him. All I can say is wish him great luck. Right now I believe, you are currently in the Ryder Cup team, if it was picked tomorrow, you would be in it. And I believe, this year 2008, we will follow on from the succes from Bernhard Langer in the Ryder Cup team \u2013 and I know all about him and the Ryder Cup team, he was a great partner and a great friend of mine. And it would be great if I can mae the team alongside youself (of Martin Kaymer), because I am shure that Martin will make the team. There will be nobody more proud than Bernhard Langer, sitting in America, that he does now, to learn that Martin has made the Ryder Cup team to take on Bernhard Langers mantle.I think Bernhard would agree with me that Martin Kaymer has more talent than Bernhard Langer. Bernhard Langer worked extremly hard to achieve what he had achieced, which is remarkable, but Martin Kaymer has the most talent right now on the european tour. Speech Martin Kaymer:I don't have a mental coach. It's hard to explain but I think it's just in me. There's no other person that tells me you have to think this and that.I just play and it's lot of fun.I play golf just for fun. There\u2019s no denying that you earn a lot of money if you are a good player but all this is not very important to me. To tell you the truth, this doesn't have top priority. I became a golf pro to have fun. Golf is my life, I love playing golf, I like practising, I regard it as a normal job. And I didn't become a golf pro to earn a living.Only last week I was in Orgasta, shortly after the tournament in Bay Hill I flew to Atlanta with Funny Simison and we walked down the course, we were checking a few things. She had already been there 18 times, she gave me a few hints and told me which things to watch. I think it will be an impressive week, during which I will gain a lot of experience and learn a lot of things. I don't think to myself: Just go there and see what happens. My goal is to make the cut. I believe that I can make it. I don't know exactly what will happen but I think it's a great opportunity to have such an experience and play tournaments as important as this one at such an early stage of my career. This can only be of benefit to my future. I was very impressed by the course, the surroundings, the condition of the greens. It was indeed very impressing. I am eager to know how I get on.Practice. This is basically the only thing to say about this. To have the will to go and practise even if it's cold outside or if there's snow, and not to give up even if things don't work out quite\nTribute to 20 years engagement Volunteer Hans Kofler.\nTribute to Hans Kofler, various shotesSpectators, various shotsGroup shot Philipp von Sahr, Martin Kaymer, Colin Montgomerie\nInterview Philipp von Sahr Tournament President.\nGolf is synonymous with dynamism, precision and success. The BMW brand stands for dynamism, precision and aesthetics. This is why BMW brand values and golf go so well with each other. Another reason is that these events not only attract many golf aficionados but also people who are interested in the BMW brand. The same applies to yachting and motor sports. This means that we can use golf sport to attract many new customers who share an interest with BMW. In addition, we are able to welcome our very own loyal customers against the wonderful backdrop of golf sport.That mixture of experienced golfers we see there and the next generation of talent. Let me just mention Colin Montgomerie, winner in 1999, a most experienced golfer and at the same time Martin Kaymer, the current Rookie of the year on the European Tour, who started exceptionally well into the new year. To have the chance to see these two generations playing together in a tournament and to feel the atmosphere of the BMW International Open Eichenried is reason enough to visit this event.\nInterview Colin Montgomerie Champion 1999.\nVery important. When I won in Munich in the BMW International Open back in 1999, I was the first person to reach a million pounds in price money, in Sterling. It was my fifth victory that year. It was a very important time for me, and it was a very proud moment. It was the first time I won a european BMW tournament. I tried about ten times. It was nice eventually to win, to win in 1999, it was my best year.The hospitality is superp. The way the players are treated. We are treated like royalty this week if you like. We are driven in very very lovely cars to and from the course. We are looked after on the course and off the course. This makes the week very special, so we look forward to come back in June.He has got great potential, Martin Kaymer, and I am not saying that because I am speaking to a German television. No, no, Martin Kaymer is and will be very good. Martin Kaymer is the best player coming out of Germany since Bernhard Langer, there is no question. He has a great future ahead of him. What that future is, is up to him, how hard he wants to work. He has the talent, and talent is God given, he is very fortunated that way. He is working hard, and I think he has a great great future.I just want to get back in the Ryder Cup Team. I am currently outside the top ten and I want to get back into the top ten of the Ryder Cup Team. I have played eight Ryder Cups in a row, and I want to make it nine. And if I play well during the summer in Europe, I\u00b4ll make it. I look forward to doing so.\nInterview Martin Kaymer \u201cRookie of the year of the European Tour\u201d.\nThe BMW Open is very special to me as this is the tournament in which I made the cut as an amateur but not yet as a professional. And it is a very special feeling to win in your home country. I was lucky to win the tournament in Abu Dhabi, this was a great feeling. But to experience the same thing in Germany tops everything.I like going to the drive range; there are two elderly gentlemen, who wash the golf balls and give them to you. I like seeing them. I believe they are from Scotland, I always think back to this. And the players' lounge which is adjacent to the 18th hole, a very nice place. The city that\u2019s been built there appeals to the spectators. The whole package is simply great.\nImpressions BMW Welt Golfprofessionals driving BMW M1.\nMartin Kaymer and Colin Montgomerie standing beside a BMW motorcycle, various shotsM1s are handed over to Martin Kaymer and Colin Montgomerie, various shots.Martin Kaymer and Colin Montgomerie driving the two M1s from the BMW Welt to the BMW Four Cylinder, various shots.\nTee-Off from the BMW Four Cylinder.\nMartin Kaymer and Colin Montgomerie arriving at the BMW Four Cylinder with the two M1s, various shotsMartin Kaymer and Colin Montgomerie on the roof of the BMW Four Cylinder, various shotsColin Montgomerie teeing off, various shots.Colin Montgomerie teeing off, various shots.Guests and journalists, various shots",

        "raw_content": "The Do This, Get That Guide On Canadian Politics\nType of Canadian Politics\nQuebec isn\u2019t officially bilingual. Canada has a much more civil approach to govern, and due to it, it is a a lot more civil place to call home. It today has the best political system in the world. Politically Canada is among the most respected nations on the planet. It is falling behind on the international stage and needs to address this democratic deficit. It\u2019s named Canada, a location where political venom and poisonous polls are far more difficult to find.\nElectoral reform is surely important but there\u2019s a lot more to do. Perhaps to the dismay of several, public policy is not too simple. With this kind of a slender majority, it wasn\u2019t surprising that the government was unable to pursue an extremely strong field of policy. Responsible government has for ages been considered a crucial element of government dependent on the Westminster model. Citizens obviously have a right to understand who and what\u2019s influencing government.\nThe USA is a good example of this type of party system. In Canada, the state is normally called the Crown, the nation\u2019s supreme executive authority. Actually, our country does not have any such tradition. You\u2019ve got a world of alternatives.\nReforming the Canadian Senate isn\u2019t going to be a simple task. Generally Canadian Senators don\u2019t carry a great deal of power, nor utilize it. Quebec senators are the sole ones to be assigned to certain districts in their province.\nWhen the party\u2019s candidate is chosen, the neighborhood party attempts to secure their election. An election is a rather exciting moment. To get folks to vote, it is crucial to make certain that every vote counts. Furthermore, without a transparent preference or a transparent question, a referendum wouldn\u2019t be in Canada\u2019s interest.\u201d Furthermore, without a clear preference or a clear question, it would not be in Canada\u2019s interest. In Canada, the Constitution isn\u2019t found in a single document. In reality, some of Canada\u2019s most essential rules aren\u2019t matters of law whatsoever, but conventions.\nEver since then, it has turned into an essential feature of the Canadian welfare state. The idea of law for a practice of authoritative decision is going to be utilized to examine the operation of the judicial authority. As an example, the growth of World War II made a time frame of terrific uncertainty, uneasiness and fear around the world. Additionally, it explores the effect of the prior Conservative government on the conventions and practices of parliamentary government, and the influence of social networking on politics. For more information concerning the Canadian political system, election outcome, please follow the hyperlink to Wikipedia. Additionally, it rules out the prospect of a national referendum. A whole lot of prime ministers are some blend of both.\nUltimately, it\u2019s a question of jurisdiction. Because moral difficulties are intrinsically spiritual difficulties, legislative attempts to coerce morality won\u2019t ever make Canada Christian. To a huge extent, the Republican Party\u2019s minority voter issue is truly merely a black issue.\nSince electoral changes have an effect on the core mission of our political parties, it\u2019s difficult to attain consensus. With internet debate there isn\u2019t any need to work on oratory skills, however, in addition, it suggests that the very same skill isn\u2019t exercised and developed. Regrettably, it must be lived forwards. The same is true for a new wellness accord with the provinces. It offers an inspiring instance of coalition building.\nCanadian Politics at a Glance\nPolitical science is the systematic maturation of our wisdom and comprehension of politics. Political Studies is a diverse area and students gain from the option of many subdivisions and different techniques of study. A number of studies have proven that learning another language from an early age does not threaten one\u2019s mother tongue. Obviously, individuals should be more educated on the way that it works. The course examines the history of these regions from their emergence as policy concerns, through the expanding role of the national government, to their present status. Political training starts with the family. It\u2019s a close financial partner together with military ally of Canada\u2019s financial elite.\nFor others, party membership may be valuable method of influencing democratic outcomes. From the perspective of individuals, it can be a significant means of participating in democratic institutions. Party organization also has the neighborhood constituency level. In the past several years, an actual effort was made to create the court geographically representative. In a general election, it\u2019s the undertaking of the national party to deal with the general national campaign. It is an exact diplomatic procedure.\nWhat You Don\u2019t Know About Canadian Politics Could Be Costing to More Than You Think",

        "raw_content": "7 Things That Trustworthy People Do Differently\nTrust: a crucial element in any successful relationship. Today we share Kat Boogaard\u2019s perspective. Enjoy!\nWant to prove that you\u2019re deserving of a high degree of faith and confidence? Take a cue from these habits of exceedingly trustworthy people.\nBy Kat Boogaard, Contributor, Inc.com\nTrust. It\u2019s a crucial element of every successful relationship \u2014 whether professional or personal. But, as important as it is, that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean it\u2019s easily granted.\nIndeed, for most of us, trust is something that needs to be earned. It\u2019s not haphazardly doled out like free t-shirts at a sporting event. People need to prove that they deserve our confidence before we\u2019re ready and willing to hand it over.\nThat can be the tough part \u2014 proving yourself as trustworthy. Fortunately, taking a cue from the habits of people who immediately inspire a high degree of confidence can help you not only earn more trust, but deserve it. Here\u2019s what trustworthy people do differently.\n1. They follow through.\nPerhaps the most important trait of all is the ability to follow through. Obviously, if you\u2019ve dropped the ball in the past, people won\u2019t be ready and willing to count on you. Our tendency is to assume that history repeats itself.\nSo, before you can expect people to place their trust in you, you first need to prove that you can consistently meet any expectations and deadlines that are laid out for you.\n2. They go above and beyond.\nBeyond just meeting expectations, the most trustworthy people recognize the value in going above and beyond what\u2019s required. They don\u2019t just do what\u2019s needed \u2014 they do it exceedingly well.\nThat willingness to go the extra mile makes it easy for other people to instill a high degree of faith in them.\nAdditionally, those who are exceptionally trustworthy don\u2019t wait to be asked for help or assistance. They jump in and offer a helping hand \u2014 even before it\u2019s requested.\n3. They avoid gossip.\nWhispering snide comments or participating in that pesky office gossip will quickly sabotage any trust you\u2019ve managed to develop.\nTo be trusted, you need to get rid of any smoke, mirrors, or backstabbing. If you\u2019re told a secret, keep it. If you say one thing to someone\u2019s face, don\u2019t turn around and say something different. Trustworthy people understand that what other people see needs to be what they get.\n4. They maintain authenticity.\nOn a similar note, trustworthy people make an effort to always be genuine and authentic. They don\u2019t drastically shift their demeanor or attitude based on the people that they\u2019re surrounded by.\nMaintaining a level of consistency in the way you react and respond to situations \u2014 regardless of who you\u2019re with \u2014 will inspire a higher degree of confidence in your overall trustworthiness.\n5. They under-promise.\nWhen it comes to infomercials or paid programming, those guarantees likely go in one ear and out the other, right? Those lofty claims seem too good to be true, so you just tune them out rather than give them serious consideration.\nTo be trusted, you also want to stay away from over-promising \u2014 especially if you could fall into the trap of under-delivering.\nInstead, be realistic and straightforward with the claims and promises that you make. It\u2019s always better to over-deliver and exceed expectations.\n6. They own their mistakes.\nAnybody who attempts to sweep their own shortcomings and blunders under the rug is bound to seem shady or slimy.\nTrustworthy people know this. And, as a result, they\u2019re always ready and willing to not only admit to their mistakes \u2014 but take the necessary steps to fix them and prevent them in the future.\n7. They forge relationships.\nIf there\u2019s one thing that the people who inspire the most trust know, it\u2019s this: Trust isn\u2019t something that\u2019s earned overnight.\nSo, rather than expecting to receive people\u2019s faith right off the bat, they place their emphasis on forging beneficial and positive relationships that serve as the groundwork for a high level of trust moving forward.\nThis article originated here.\nKat Boogaard is a Wisconsin-based freelance writer, mainly covering topics related to careers, self-development, and freelancing.

        "raw_content": "So-called \u201cassociation plans\u201d would be cheaper but cover less\nWorkers would be allowed to band together to buy health insurance under a proposed rule released by the Department of Labor, The Hill reported. The proposal was issued in response to an executive order by President Trump, which would allow associations of workers to purchase cheaper health insurance that's not subject to the same rules as plans under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).\nBy allowing groups of people to purchase plans not subject to the PPACA\u2019s rules for coverage, however, critics say the move could allow insurers to sell plans that do not cover pre-existing conditions or offer certain \"essential health benefits.\" The requirement that insurers cover people with pre-existing conditions was a hallmark of the PPACA, and a provision that is broadly popular.\nThe Department of Labor cast the new rule as a way to expand access to health coverage, essentially arguing that this would allow more people to afford insurance by allowing the sale of cheaper plans, The Hill reported. \"The goal of the rulemaking is to expand access to affordable health coverage, especially among small employers and self-employed individuals, by removing undue restrictions on the establishment and maintenance of association health plans,\" the proposal said.\nAssociation health plans (AHPs) already exist, but they are limited under federal law.\nThe proposal would broaden the definition of \"employer\" under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act to allow more flexibility to workers with a \"commonality of interest.\" The proposed rule would also expand the types of groups that can form an AHP and allow for membership across state lines. It would also allow self-employed individuals to take part in a large-group AHP.\nSenator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) has long been a champion of the AHP concept and has worked closely with the administration on the proposal. Paul praised the administration's efforts.\n\"Conservative health care reform is alive and well, and I will keep working with President Trump to build on this progress,\" Paul said in a statement.\nSource: The Hill; January 4, 2018.\nTrump Backs Simultaneous \u201cRepeal and Replace\u201d for Obamacare\nTrump Administration Issues Rule on Stricter PPACA Enrollment\nStudy: Premiums Would Rise $3,300 If Court Rules Against Affordable Care Act",

        "raw_content": "Imagine that we sit 9 persons in the same room. And then we tell them to find a prime number (a number that you can only divide exactly between one and the number itself). So each of them get one number and tries to divide that number by all the numbers before it to see if it is prime or not.\nAfter a little while, one of them raises his hand and claims to have find one, and then he sends the number to everybody else.\nFrom here everybody checks the solution, and if it is correct, they send to everybody else a message that it is confirmed. After at least 3 persons have confirm it, then everyone agrees that the solver of the problem has Bitcoins, and everybody starts working on finding the next prime number.\nEventually all of them will have Bitcoins of course, but as the numbers grow, more and more divisions are needed to see if the number is prime. If you want to determine if 97 is prime, it would take almost 50 divisions. But if you want to determine if 1,345,873 is prime, that one would take a lot of divisions to find out.\nThis is a simplification of the process that has been occurring for years now. It is not finding prime numbers, it is solving a mathematical problem that grows in complexity, and the problems to solve to generate one Bitcoin now are so complex that you would need an ungodly amount of computer power to solve even one of them. Back at the start you could use a normal computer to get yourself some Bitcoins, but now, it could take decades for a normal computer to solve even one of them. And those are decades of you paying the electrical bill.\nHow can I mine Bitcoins?\nYou basically need a computer known as a Bitcoin miner, examples of these can be seen at the manufactures websites such as https://www.bitmain.com/ and http://www.rigwarz.com/\nAntminer S9-B22\nYou can also join a collective effort to mine them, and if you join one of these efforts, whenever a Bitcoin gets generated, it is distributed among all of those participating. But I don\u2019t think this is worth it, it is better to save that money in the electrical bill and use it to buy a Bitcoin instead.\nA third option is to rent some Bitcoin mining power in a cloud service. But this is a big risk I have to say. The one with the best reputation is Genesis-Mining, here you simply pay a little and you get a life-time contract to be mining. The price starts at USD$30 payable with a credit card, or 0.03 Bitcoins, then you decide whether you want to mine Bitcoins, Unobtanium, Litecoin, Dash or any of the options they offer.\nThe thing here is that it may take about 16 months to get back your investment. And how much what you get is worth depends of course of the price of Bitcoin, the complexity to generate Bitcoins at that point. Genesis-Mining operates since 2013, it has been around for a little while.\nMy advice? Stay away of cloud mining, about all of them are ponzi schemes, scams pretending to be nice but that only take your money and then dissapear. I mentioned Genesis-Mining because it is the only one that has been around for a little while and it seems to do what it promises. If you have some spare money you can try it, it\u2019s actually nice to see the numbers and everything, just don\u2019t bet your entire life on it.\nThat\u2019s about it. Mining Bitcoins now is not easy at all, but in a way is an investment.\n\u2190 Where does the value of a Bitcoin comes from?

PIXLEY, Defendant-Appellant .\nBefore: WALKER, PARKER, and HEANEY, Circuit Judges .\nAppeal from judgment of the United States District Court, for the Western District of New York, Michael A. Telesca, Judge, convicting defendant of conspiracy under 18 U.S.C. \u00df 371 (1988) and multiple counts of causing the introduction of an unapproved new drug into interstate commerce under 21 U.S.C. \u00df\u00df 331(d) (1988).\nJudgment is affirmed.\nWILLIAM H. MOORE, JR., Savannah, Georgia, for Defendant-Appellant .\nCHRISTOPHER V. TAFFE, Assistant United States Attorney for the Western District of New York, Rochester, New York (Patrick H. NeMoyer, United States Attorney for the WesternDistrict of New York, Rochester, New York, of counsel) for Appellee .\nHEANEY, Senior Circuit Judge :\nCharles R. Pixley appeals his conviction following a bench trial in the United States District Court, Western District of New York (Telesca, J.) on one felony count of conspiracy in violation of 18 U.S.C. \u00df 371 (1988) and eighteen misdemeanor counts of causing the introduction of an unapproved new drug into interstate commerce in violation of 21 U.S.C. \u00df 333(a)(1) (1988). The government indicted Pixley and Writers & Research, Inc., a business owned and operated by Pixley, after an investigation by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) revealed that Pixley, through Writers & Research, Inc., was brokering sales to United States residents of an unapproved new drug called 714X which was manufactured in Quebec, Canada. Pixley marketed 714X to individuals and doctors through publications distributed by Writers & Research that touted the benefits of 714X for persons afflicted with cancer, AIDS, and other chronic, degenerative diseases.\nThe district court considered the evidence, including Pixley's proffered defense that 714X is a homeopathic drug listed inthe Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia, and thus safe and effective for its intended use. In a decision and order filed on April 19, 1996, the court made its findings of fact and entered guilty verdicts against Pixley on all counts. On July 9, 1996, the court sentenced Pixley to one year and one day in prison for the conspiracy conviction and to concurrent twelve-month terms in prison on the remaining counts all to be served concurrently with the conspiracy sentence. Pixley filed a timely notice of appeal and we now affirm the district court.\nIn early 1992, the FDA received information that an unapproved new drug called 714X was being promoted and distributed by Pixley through Writers & Research. The FDA inspected the offices of Writers & Research in January 1992 and again in March 1993. Promotional literature obtained during the inspections revealed that 714X was being offered as a non-toxic treatment for cancer, AIDS, and other chronic degenerative diseases. According to its label, the full chemical name of 714X was trimethylbicyclonitraminoheptane. According to expert witnesses, however, this chemical name was unrecognizable and did not accurately identify the contents of the substance to consumers or medical professionals.\nPersons interested in obtaining 714X were required to purchase the promotional literature, including a book by Pixley entitled Do No Harm, for approximately $10. Pixley refused toarrange for a shipment of 714X until prospective customers sent him a signed statement that they had read the book. 714X sold for approximately $150 per two-dose vial. Pixley's role as broker was a lucrative one: In 1992 his profits from sales of 714X were $324,000 and that amount increased to an estimated $616,000 in 1993.\nAt trial, the government produced evidence that Pixley was aware of FDA regulations governing the distribution of unapproved new drugs in the United States. His corporate offices were twice inspected by the FDA at which time the FDA explicitly advised him that his conduct constituted the promotion and sale of an unapproved drug and was contrary to law. In addition, between March and August 1993, Pixley retained a government lobbyist, ostensibly to help him usher 714X through the FDA-approval process. The lobbyist resigned, however, because she believed that Pixley's true intention was to evade complying with federal regulations and to continue his mail-order operation despite the FDA's notices of noncompliance with regulations. The government also offered expert testimony that 714X has not been clinically established as safe and effective for use in the treatment of human diseases nor is the drug generally recognized as safe and effective for that purpose among qualified experts.\nPixley raises the following claims challenging his convictions: (1) the district court erred in determining that 714X was not a homeopathic drug exempt from the FDA's pre-market approval requirements; (2) steps taken by the FDA to explicitly exclude 714Xfrom a personal importation exemption were illegal, thereby defeating the indictment; (3) the court constructively amended the indictment causing a prejudicial variance between the crimes charged and that for which Pixley was convicted; and (4) his convictions are contrary to a constitutionally-protected liberty interest in the use of unapproved drugs to treat diseases.\nA. Exemption From the FDA Regulations\nPixley asserts on appeal, as he did in the district court, that 714X is a homeopathic drug and that it is therefore exempt from the pre-market regulation under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), 21 U.S.C. \u00df\u00df 301-393 (1988). The district court, although noting the lack of proof that 714X was a homeopathic drug, concluded that it was subject to the FDA regulation regardless of its status. We agree.\nThe definition of a \"drug\" under the FDCA includes, \"articles recognized in the official United States Pharmacopoeia, official Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States . . . and articles intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease in man or other animals.\" 21 U.S.C. \u00df 321(g)(1)(A)-(B). Regardless of the classification of a drug, if an article is intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease in man it is defined as a drug. See United States v. Guardian Chem. Corp., 410 F.2d 157, 162 (2d Cir. 1969); United States v. 48 Dozen Packages, 94 F.2d 641, 642 (2d Cir. 1938). The formal policy of the FDA is that if ahomeopathic drug is not labeled as homeopathic or if a homeopathic drug \"is offered for the cure, mitigation, prevention, or treatment of disease conditions,\" it is regulated by the FDCA as a drug. (Appellee's App. at 65-66 (FDA Compliance Policy Guide Manual, \u00df 400.400 at 106-07).)\nWe agree with the district court that, as a matter of law, if 714X was promoted as a treatment or cure for cancer, AIDS, or other diseases, it is subject to the requirements of the FDCA regardless of whether it is a homeopathic drug. The district court found that Pixley promoted 714X as such and its finding is certainly not clearly erroneous. We therefore reject Pixley's argument that the court erred in determining that 714X was not a homeopathic drug and was subject to the requirements of the FDCA.\nB. Personal Importations Exemption\nPixley's next argument is based on the FDA policy that exempts from regulation certain unapproved drugs imported in smallquantities exclusively for personal use. He claims that because purchasers of 714X imported the drug for personal use, it was not subject to FDA regulation as a new drug. (Appellee's App. at 76-80 citing (Regulatory Procedures Manual, Pt. 9, Ch. 9-71).) The district court found that Pixley's conduct--notwithstanding any conduct of the purchasers--fell outside the exemption because he imported 714X for promotional and commercial purposes, not for personal use. Pixley does not challenge this conclusion on appeal. Instead, he now argues that the FDA failed to comply with the Administrative Procedures Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. \u00df\u00df 551-559 (1988), when, during the course of its investigation into the 714X, it issued an Import Alert explicitly excluding the drug from its personal importation policy.\nPixley's argument is flawed. His claim is based, in part, on the factually inaccurate assertion that \"[t]he Import Alert was issued solely in an effort to make Defendant-Appellant[']s brokering of 714X[,] which had been perfectly legal . . . under the personal Import Policy, suddenly illegal.\" (Appellant's Br. at 10.) As the district court observed, however, Pixley's commercial activity was never protected under the exemption. To the contrary, the personalimportation guidelines instruct FDA personnel to issue an Import Alert if they discover, as they did in this case, the promotion of unapproved foreign products for mail-order shipments. (Appellee's App. at 80 (Regulatory Procedures Manual, pt. 9, ch. 9-71-40).) Moreover, in the appropriate civil context, Pixley would likely lack standing to raise a claim about the procedures employed in issuing an Import Alert. Because his activities were never protected under the policy, Pixley could not be said to have suffered any direct injury as a result of any change to it. See Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 560-61 (1992) (standing requires a showing of an alleged injury that is \"an invasion of a legally protected interest\"); Whitmore v. Arkansas, 495 U.S. 149, 155 (1990) (standing turns not on the merits of the claim that particular conduct is illegal, but rather on whether the claimant demonstrates an \"injury in fact\"). In any event, the district court did not err in concluding that the FDA's personal importation exemption does not defeat Pixley's indictment.\nC. Constructive Amendment/Variance in Indictment\nPixley argues that the district court improperly amended the indictment by questioning a defense witness about possible mislabeling of 714X and based his convictions on a perception that Pixley introduced a mislabelled drug into interstate commerce despite that the indictment did not charge Pixley with that offense. Where there is a variance between the facts alleged in an indictment and the government's actual proof at trial, we reverse only on a showingof substantial prejudice to the defendant. United States v. Johansen, 56 F.3d 347, 350 (2d Cir. 1995). An indictment is constructively amended when \"the terms of the indictment are in effect altered by the presentation of evidence . . . which so [modifies the] essential elements of the offense charged that there is a substantial likelihood that the defendant may have been convicted of an offense other than that charged in the indictment.\" United States v. Delano, 55 F.3d 720, 729 (2d Cir. 1995) (citations and internal quotations omitted). A constructive amendment of an indictment is per se prejudicial. United States v. Wallace, 59 F.3d 333, 337 (2d Cir. 1995) (citing United States v. Morgenstern, 933 F.2d 1108, 1115 (2d Cir. 1991)).\nThere was neither a prejudicial variance nor a constructive amendment to the indictment in this case. Without objection by the defendants, the district court inquired about the labelling of 714X, the chemical name given to the drug, and whether the actual ingredients of 714X could be discerned from the drug's chemical name. Because Pixley did not object to these questions, we review only for plain error, affording the district court wide latitude regarding questions by the bench of witnesses. United States v. Bush, 47 F.3d 511, 514-15 (2d Cir. 1995). Pixley has no basis to support his claim that the court essentially convicted him for mislabelling offenses. The court's limited questions related to legal and factual issues put squarely before it by the indictment. As the court specifically explained, the questions went to Pixley's intent in light of hisproffered defense that he had purely philanthropic motives and lacked any intent to defraud:\nDefense counsel and defense expert . . . admitted that 714X was a mislabeled drug. One could not tell the contents of the vial from the description on the label attached to the vial. Although defendant was not charged with mislabeling 714X, . . . that fact is clearly indicative of his predisposition to commit fraud upon unsuspecting individuals who hoped that the contents of the vial contained their last hope for a cure or treatment to terminal conditions.\n(Appellant's App. at 647 (District Ct. Op. at 24).) The district court did not commit plain error by questioning the defense witness about mislabeling, and Pixley's claim that the proof at trial was factually inconsistent with the indictment is meritless.\nD. Liberty Interest\nFinally, Pixley argues that his criminal convictions violate a Fifth Amendment liberty interest held by him and persons afflicted with terminal diseases to use unapproved drugs as a possible treatment. He bases his constitutional claim on Quill v. Vacco, 80 F.3d 716, 731 (2d Cir.), cert. granted, 117 S. Ct. 36 (1996), in which we held that state statutes prohibiting a physician from proscribing medications to be self-administered by a mentally competent, terminally-ill person in the final stages of a terminal illness, violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution because that prohibition is not rationally related to any legitimate government interest. See also Compassion in Dying v. State of Washington, 79 F.3d 790 (9th Cir.), cert. granted sub nom., Washington v. Glucksberg, 117 S. Ct. 37 (1996).\nPixley has not preserved this issue for our review because he did not properly raise it before the district court. See Singleton v. Wulff, 428 U.S. 106, 120 (1976); United States v. Gallerani, 68 F.3d 611, 617 (2d Cir. 1995). Prior to trial, defense counsel informed the court that it did not intend to raise any defenses based on a claimed constitutionally-protected right to choose medical treatment. (Appellee's App. at 93 (Apr. 2, 1996 Hr'g Tr. at 8:11-20).) Although Rule 52(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure permits us to review the issue for plain error if doing so would correct a particularly egregious error or redress a miscarriage of justice, United States v. Melendez, 60 F.3d 41, 48 (2d Cir. 1995), such circumstances are not presented in this case. To the contrary, as we stated in Quill, we are extremely reluctant to identify a new fundamental right in the absence of a clear direction from the Supreme Court. Quill, 80 F.3d at 725.",

Neither country requires residency for gay couples wishing to marry.\nActivists say a loophole exists in Russian law which bans gay marriage at home but does not prevent the recognition of a same-sex marriage that has taken place abroad.\nUnlike other major European cities, Moscow has no gay-friendly district and the homosexual scene is still largely underground.\nDespite the fact that one of Russia\u2019s most popular musical groups abroad, Tatu, traded on their fictionalized lesbian image, same-sex couples are rarely seen being affectionate in public.\n\u201cThey want to be able to live like other citizens, this is not (gay) propaganda,\u201d Alekseyev said of Fyet and her partner.\nHis website www.gayrussia.ru quotes Fyet as saying \"Our love is no different (than others).\"\nGay pride parades, unheard of in the days of the Soviet Union, have been allowed in some cities in recent years but are generally met with public and political derision.\nThree years ago, police, militant Orthodox Christians and neo-fascists attacked and violently broke up the first gay rights march in Moscow.\nNext week\u2019s Russian gay pride march will purposely coincide with Moscow\u2019s hosting of the Eurovision Song Contest and competitors will be asked to back homosexual rights on stage.\nThe Russian Orthodox Church, resurgent since the fall of the Soviet Union, has helped turn public sentiment against gay pride events, which the then head of the church, Patriarch Alexey II, has called \u201cpropaganda for homosexuality.\u201d",

With interactive worksheets, real-life examples and step-by-step guides to making life-transforming changes, Women s Wellness Wisdom is both practical and inspiring. Illuminating how women can thrive in today s fast-paced modern world, and filled from front to back with Dr Libby s unique blend of nutrition, biochemical science and emotional care, this beautifully illustrated book is truly the definitive guide for women about looking after their bodies, minds and hearts.\n\"Libby embraces a holistic approach by treating the root cause of an ailment.

        "raw_content": "Vince's Verdict On ... Autonomous Cars\nRumour has it he plays Jenga with car batteries at the weekend and insists his hair is cut to the legal tyre tread depth of 1.6mm - to the Rivervale Leasing Team he is the king of the road with over 30 years experience in the motor trade. So, what\u2019s been racing around his head this month? Our Autonomous Future \u2026\nYears ago, the thought of having a car with no driver was purely science fiction. Over the years autonomous features have crept into our everyday cars and we know the technology exists to make the physical act of driving a vehicle a thing of the past. But, are we all keen to let go of the wheel and entrust the safety of our journey to machines? So, what\u2019s Vince\u2019s verdict on the driverless road we are hurtling down, here's what he had to say \u2026\n\"Autonomous vehicles hold the promise of eradicating human error from accidents on our roads, potentially reducing fatalities to 0. But, research conducted in spring last year revealed 53% of drivers believe the focus should be on making drivers safer, not just the cars. Which I totally understand, one thing that frustrates me is that people seem to have lost the ability to indicate, especially at roundabouts, so driver skills could always be improved. There is no easy way to make this happen, I personally think police could be more vigilant with offences such as failure to indicate and warn and re-educate drivers on all aspects of driving.\nIn this survey 65% believed humans should always be in control of a vehicle. However, there were some aspects of autonomous technology that would be welcomed. For example, 90% of respondents would like technology to prevent tailgating and 82% would support technology to stop them driving too close to the vehicle ahead. I agree and really welcome all the safety features, why wouldn\u2019t you? Whether its distance control or help when you brake in case of emergencies. In the car I have been currently using, a C-Class, I have the park assist facility, that is very clever and very helpful; you are controlling the accelerator and the brakes while the vehicle steers to perform a parallel park for you. This helps drivers avoid hitting the curb and damaging alloys, it avoids the risk of hitting cars that are either behind or in front and you are nicely parked safely out of the line of traffic. These features I understand, would I want to sit there and just take my hands off the steering wheel and feet off the pedals? No, I wouldn\u2019t feel comfortable at all.\nVince's Verdict On .... Women's Car Buying Experience\nIt\u2019s a massive leap of faith to get in a car and have no power or influence over the journey. Imagine you are in a driverless car and see a person step out into the road, surely you are going to try and take control of the car in some way as an instinctive reaction. We would almost have to retrain ourselves not to respond to the road ahead to travel in a driverless car.\nIn 20/30 years time when we look back at our generation and perhaps our children\u2019s generation we might be the last who remember enjoying motoring in a new world of autonomous cars where there is no fun left in driving anymore. To me that\u2019s a really big thing because a lot of the time when people buy a car a big part of that decision is the emotive side, that it\u2019s a new vehicle with a certain look, a certain engine sound and handles a certain way. The car owner takes pleasure in driving that vehicle, will future generations lose this appreciation and see cars as just a mode of transport, to me that would be very sad.\nThere are many forecasts as to how soon driverless cars will be readily available, some predict driverless cars on the road as early as 2020; others believe we need until 2032 to have truly autonomous vehicles a frequent sight on our roads. Parallels here can be drawn with the pace of change in the internet and home computers. Back in 1974 when Arthur C Clarke predicted we would all have computers at home that we would \u201ctake it as much for granted as we take the telephone\u201d that could access \u201call the information needed for everyday life: bank statements, theatre reservations, all the information you need over the course of living in a complex modern society.\u201d\nAt the time these predictions seemed as alien and impossible to understand in much the same way the roads full of driverless cars can seem to us now.\nLet me know what you think - Would you feel comfortable in a driverless car?\"\nDo you agree with Vince?

Boumedienne arrived in Turkey from Madrid on January 2 and stayed at a hotel in Istanbul.\n\"There is footage [of Boumeddiene] at the airport. Later on, she stayed at a hotel with another person and crossed into Syria on January 8. We can tell that based on telephone records,\" Cavusoglu said.\nCoulibaly is believed to have shot a policewoman on Thursday before storming into a Parisian kosher shop on Friday and killing four people. Coulibaly was killed in a subsequent police assault.\nPolice discovered Boumeddiene was also connected to Cherif and Said Kouachi, the two gunmen behind the attack on Charlie Hebdo\u2019s headquarters in Paris on Wednesday, where 12 people, including four notable cartoonists, were shot dead.\nParis prosecutor Francois Molins said that Boumeddiene was in close touch with Cherif Kouachi\u2019s wife. Around 500 phone calls have been uncovered between the two of them in the last two years. Kouachi\u2019s wife was questioned by police but later released.\nLater on Monday, Ahmet Davutoglu, Turkish PMsaid Ankara shouldn\u2019t be blamed for Boumeddiene\u2019s entry to Syria via Turkey.\n\"Is it Turkey's fault it has borders with Syria?\" Davutoglu said, as cited by Reuters. \"We need to receive intelligence first so we can track people.\u201d\nHe added that Ankara kept its border with Syria open to let in more than 1.6 million refugees since 2011.\nWe have 7,000 people on a no-entry list and deported 2,000, including French and German citizens,\" Davutoglu said.\nThe Turkish HaberTurk newspaper posted CCTV footage showing a woman identified as Boumeddiene at Istanbul's Sabiha Gokcen Airport.

        "raw_content": "home > diseases, conditions and tests a-z list low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) article\nLow blood sugar (hypoglycemia) definition and facts\nWhat is low blood sugar?\nWho gets low blood sugar?\nWhat can cause low blood sugar?\nWhy is low blood sugar dangerous?\nWhat are the symptoms and signs that my blood sugar levels are too low?\nHow is low blood sugar treated?\nWhat else can I do to control my blood sugar levels?\nHypoglycemia is the medical term for low blood sugar. It typically occurs as a side effect of medications for diabetes.\nThe normal range of blood glucose is from 70 to 100 mg/dL in an individual without diabetes,\nMost people will feel the effects and symptoms of low blood sugar when blood glucose levels are lower than 50 mg/dL.\nSymptoms and signs include nervousness, dizziness, trembling, sweating, hunger, weakness, and palpitations.\nSevere cases may lead to seizures and loss of consciousness.\nLow blood sugar is treated by giving a readily absorbed source of sugar, including soft drinks, juice, or foods containing sugar.\nIf the hypoglycemia has progressed to the point at which the patient cannot take anything by mouth, an injection of glucagon may be given. Glucagon is a hormone that causes a fast release of glucose from the liver.\nHypoglycemia or low blood sugar is syndrome that results from low blood sugar. The severity and symptoms of hypoglycemia can vary from person to person. Blood tests can diagnose low blood sugar, and symptoms resolve when the levels of sugar in the blood return to the normal range. The medical term for blood sugar is blood glucose.\nRisk factors are having type 1 or 2 diabetes or in some cases, prediabetes.\nDespite advances in the treatment of diabetes, low blood sugar episodes occur as a side effect of many treatments for diabetes. In fact, these episodes are often the limiting factor in achieving optimal blood sugar control, because many medications that are effective in treating diabetes carry the risk of lowering the blood sugar level too much, causing symptoms. In large scale studies looking at tight control in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, low blood sugars occurred more often in the patients who were managed most intensively. This is important for patients and physicians to recognize, especially as the goal for treating patients with diabetes becomes tighter control of blood sugar.\nWhile people who do not have any metabolic problems can complain of symptoms that resemble low blood sugar, true hypoglycemia usually occurs in people with diabetes mellitus (type 1 and type 2). People with pre-diabetes or insulin resistance also can have low blood sugars on occasion if their high circulating insulin levels are further challenged by a prolonged period of fasting. There are other rare causes for the condition, such as insulin-producing tumors (insulinomas) and certain medications.\nThese uncommon causes of hypoglycemia will not be discussed in this article, which will primarily focus on the condition occurring with type 1 or 2 diabetes and its treatment.\nWhen the circulating level of blood glucose falls, the brain actually senses the drop. The brain then sends out messages that trigger a series of events, including changes in hormone and nervous system responses that are aimed at increasing blood glucose levels. Insulin secretion decreases and hormones that promote higher blood glucose levels, such as glucagon, cortisol, growth hormone, and epinephrine all increase. As mentioned previously, there is a store in the liver of glycogen that can be converted to glucose rapidly.\nIn addition to the biochemical processes that occur, the body starts to consciously alert the affected person that it needs food by causing the signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia.\nThe body needs fuel to work. One of its major fuel sources is sugars, which the body gets from what is consumed as either simple sugar or complex carbohydrates in the diet. For emergency situations (like prolonged fasting), the body stores a stash of sugar in the liver as glycogen. If this store is needed, the body goes through a biochemical process to make new sugar (gluco-neo-genesis) and converts these stores of glycogen to sugar. This backup process emphasizes that the fuel source of sugar is important (important enough for human beings to have developed an evolutionary system of storage to avoid a sugar deficit).\nOf all the organs in the body, the brain depends on sugar (glucose) almost exclusively. Rarely, if absolutely necessary, the brain will use ketones as a fuel source, but this is not preferred. The brain cannot make its own glucose and is 100% dependent on the rest of the body for its supply. If for some reason, the glucose level in the blood falls (or if the brain's requirements increase and demands are not met) there can be effects on the function of the brain.\nDespite advances in the treatment of diabetes, low blood sugar episodes often are the limiting factor in achieving optimal blood sugar control, because many medications that are effective in treating diabetes carry the risk of lowering the blood sugar level too much, causing symptoms of the condition. In large scale studies looking at tight control in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, low blood sugars occurred more often in the patients who were managed most intensively. This is important for patients and physicians to recognize, especially as the goal for treating patients with diabetes becomes tighter control of blood sugar.\nThe normal range of glucose in the bloodstream is from 70 to 100 mg/dL when the individual is fasting (that is not immediately after a meal). The body's biochemical response to hypoglycemia usually starts when sugars are in the high/mid 70's. At this point, the liver releases its stores and the hormones mentioned above start to activate. In many people, this process occurs without any clinical symptoms. The amount of insulin produced also declines in an attempt to prevent a further drop in glucose.\nWhile there is some degree of variability among people, most will usually develop symptoms suggestive of low blood sugar when blood glucose levels are lower than 50 mg/dL. The first set of symptoms are called adrenergic (or sympathetic) because they relate to the nervous system's response to hypoglycemia. Patients may experience any of the following:\nOften have trouble speaking.\nIn most people, these symptoms are easily recognizable. The vast majority of individuals with diabetes only experience this degree of hypoglycemia if they are on medications or insulin. People (with diabetes or who have insulin resistance) with high circulating levels of insulin who fast or change their diet to lower their carbohydrate intake drastically should also be cautioned. These individuals may also experience modest hypoglycemia.\nPeople being treated for diabetes who experience the condition may not experience symptoms as easily as people without diabetes. This phenomenon has been referred to as hypoglycemic unawareness. This can be dangerous as blood sugars may approach extremely low levels before any symptoms are perceived.\nAnyone who has experienced an episode of hypoglycemia describes a sense of urgency to eat and resolve the symptoms. And, that's exactly the point of these symptoms. They act as warning signs to tell the body to consume more fuel. At this level, the brain still can access circulating blood glucose for fuel. The symptoms provide a person the opportunity to raise blood glucose levels before the brain is affected.\nIf a person does not or cannot respond by eating something to raise blood glucose, the levels of glucose continue to drop. With further drops in blood glucose, patients progress to neuro-glyco-penic ranges (meaning that the brain is not getting enough glucose). At this point, symptoms progress to confusion, drowsiness, changes in behavior, coma, and seizure.\nThe acute management of low blood sugar involves the rapid delivery of a source of easily absorbed sugar. Regular soft drinks, juice, lifesaver candies, table sugar, and the like are good options. In general, 15 grams of glucose is the dose that is given, followed by an assessment of symptoms and a blood glucose check if possible. If after 10 minutes there is no improvement, another 10-15 grams should be given. This can be repeated up to three times. At that point, the patient should be considered as not responding to the therapy and an ambulance should be called.\nThe equivalency of 10-15 grams of glucose (approximate servings) are:\nFour lifesavers\n1/2 can of regular soda or juice\nMany people like the idea of treating low blood sugar with dietary treats such as cake, cookies, and brownies. However, sugar in the form of complex carbohydrates or sugar combined with fat and protein are much too slowly absorbed to be useful in acute treatment.\nOnce the acute episode has been treated, a healthy, long-acting carbohydrate to maintain blood sugars in the appropriate range should be consumed. Half a sandwich is a reasonable option.\nIf the hypoglycemic episode has progressed to the point at which the patient cannot or will not take anything by mouth, more drastic measures will be needed. In many cases, a family member or roommate can be trained in the use of glucagon. Glucagon is a hormone that causes a rapid release of glucose stores from the liver. It is an injection given intramuscularly to an individual who cannot take glucose by mouth. A response is usually seen in minutes and lasts for about 90 minutes. Again, a long-acting source of glucose should thereafter be consumed to maintain blood sugar levels in the safe range. If glucagon is not available and the patient is not able to take anything by mouth, emergency services (for example 911) should be called immediately. An intravenous route of glucose administration should be established as soon as possible.\nWith a history of recurrent hypoglycemic episodes, the first step in treatment is to assess whether it is related to medications or insulin treatment. Patients with a consistent pattern of the condition may benefit from a medication dose adjustment. It is important that people with diabetes who experience low blood sugar to check blood glucose values multiple times a day to help define whether there is a pattern related to meals or medications. Some people who experience recurrent episodes will benefit from changes in when and what they eat, for example, eating multiple small meals and frequent small snacks throughout the day rather than three larger meals.\nYes. People with diabetes should wear identification stating they have diabetes and whether they have recurrent low blood sugar. Those at risk for the health condition should be counseled on checking blood sugars before they drive a car, operate heavy machinery, or do anything physically taxing. In addition, it is important to carry a quick-acting glucose source (such as those mentioned above) at all times, and keep a source in their car, office, and by their bedside. Efforts should be made to minimize the hypoglycemic effects of drug regimens and to avoid variable surges in exercise, activity, and drinking alcohol.\nMedscapeReference. Hypoglycemia.",

Sadler | Prize Indemnification\nWhat\u2019s behind the lawsuit?\nSCA Promotions, a prize and promotion insurance company, sued Lance Armstrong over a $12 million bonus paid in 2006. The company thinks Armstrong should return the money paid to him for winning the Tour de France in 2002, 2003 and 2004. Since these titles have been stripped from the cycling giant due to his recent confession of using banned substances, the SCA has requested the money be returned on behalf of Tailwind Sports, his team\u2019s former management company, and the team sponsor, the U.S. Postal Service.\nEven though this is a high-profile case, we want to let you know about Sports Promotional insurance and how it works. Sports Promotional insurance allows for the payment of a premium and the collection of prize money if certain performance benchmarks are met. This is what is going on with Lance Armstrong and SCA right now. The discussion comes down to did Armstrong breach the insurance contract under which he collected the $12 million bonus paid to him in 2006.\nSo why did SCA pay the $12 million in the first place? The U.S. Postal Service purchased Promotion and Prize Indemnification insurance. This specialty insurance uses statistical odds of a performer exceeding the expected resul to establish an insurance premium that reflects the overall risk of the company (in this case the U.S. Postal Service) having to pay a performer (Lance Armstrong). When Lance Armstrong beat the odds and won the Tour de France 3 times in a row, the insurance company paid his winnings.\nTo make it easier to understand, let\u2019s look at it from an auto insurance point of view. You pay a small amount to the insurance company every month. But when something unexpected happens, like a car accident, the insurance company pays you. Lance Armstrong winning the Tour de France was the U.S. Postal Service\u2019s car crash.\nIf you file a fraudulent insurance claim, you get sued. There is a strong case against Lance Armstrong. Not only did he lie under oath multiple times, but his contract clearly states that the bonuses would be paid only under the condition that he wins the Tour de France. Having been stripped of his title, he is no longer the winner.\nIf you have any questions about Sports Promotional Insurance or Promotion and Prize Indemnification insurance please contact Sadler Sports Insurance. We are here to back you when the unexpected happens in the world or sports.\nSource: Robert Wilonsky, dallasnews.com, \u201cIn Dallas court, Lance Armstrong sued over $12 million Tour de France bonuses paid by sports insurance company.\u201d February 7, 2013\nPosted By John M.

        "title": "Sam Storms: Oklahoma City, OK > Loving and Leading our Children through Discipline - Proverbs 13:24",
        "raw_content": "Loving and Leading our Children through Discipline - Proverbs 13:24\nLoving and Leading our Children through Discipline\nOver the years many things have led me to fall ever more in love with Scripture and to grow in my respect for what God has provided for us in the pages of this book. One of those things is the way in which the Bible, at one moment, reverberates with profound theological truths and, in the next, reaches down into our everyday existence with equally profound practical guidance on how to live. It\u2019s really quite amazing to be elevated, as it were, to the lofty heights of glorious and majestic transcendent truths about God, only then to be planted firmly back on the ground with clear instruction on how to cope with the numerous problems and challenges we encounter every day.\nWould you like an example of this? It\u2019s right here in the subject matter of our study today. Scripture, as you know, is filled with descriptions of God\u2019s providence, his grace, his sovereignty over the affairs of humanity, together with portrayals of his unapproachable majesty and glory. But then we turn to a book like Proverbs and are confronted with something as down-to-earth and relevant as how to discipline our kids! Some might suffer from spiritual whiplash as they feel themselves taken from one extreme to the other, but I find it exhilarating and incredibly instructive.\nSo, today we are going to turn our attention to a subject that strikes very close to home: how to discipline our children. I hardly need to tell you how important or how controversial this topic is. A few years ago I came across an article in Parade magazine in which a prominent child psychologist was quoted with regard to whether or not parents should spank their kids. This is what he said:\n\u201cThe way to stop violence in America is to stop spanking children.\u201d Spanking, he went on to assert, promotes the thesis that violence against others is acceptable. And now I\u2019m quoting again: \u201cSpanking is the first half-inch on the yardstick of violence. It is followed by hitting and ultimately by rape, murder, and assassination. The modeling behavior that occurs at home sets the stage [and sends this message]: \u2018I will resort to violence when I don\u2019t know what else to do.\u2019\u201d\nSo, does the Bible support this idea that spanking is the first step that will eventually lead to rape, murder, and assassination? What we will soon discover is that precisely the opposite is the case. Proverbs will tell us in a vareity of ways that the failure to apply loving but firm, and often physical, discipline to our children may well set them on a path of personal destruction and eventual death. Do you find that difficult to believe? Then come with me into the wisdom of Proverbs. There are six texts we\u2019ll examine.\n(1) Proverbs 13:24\n\u201cWhoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him\u201d (Prov. 13:24).\nThis passage is the human or horizontal version of the truth we read in Proverbs 3:11-12. There Solomon says, \u201cMy son, do not despise the Lord\u2019s discipline or be weary of his reproof, for the Lord reproves him whom he loves, as a father the son in whom he delights.\u201d\nHow often have you heard a well-meaning mother or father say, \u201cI just can\u2019t discipline my children. I love them too much!\u201d I don\u2019t question that parent\u2019s love, but I certainly have concerns about their understanding of human nature. They probably have a deficient view of original sin and the inborn disposition toward rebellion and unbelief. They also likely have a misinformed view of the nature, purpose, and ultimate fruit that comes from the sort of discipline that the Bible recommends. More on this below.\nWhen Solomon says that to \u201cspare the rod\u201d is to \u201chate\u201d a child he does not mean the parent has emotional disdain or revulsion for his child or that he consciously hopes for his destruction. He is referring to the unintentional consequences for the child, not to some deliberate dislike or animosity a parent might feel in their heart. His point is that if you genuinely care about the long-term welfare of your children, you will take steps to redirect their path away from sin and destruction and towards God and holiness, and it is the aim of loving but firmly applied discipline to do this.\nTake note that the phrase \u201cdiligent to discipline\u201d is more literally rendered, \u201cseek him early with discipline.\u201d The verb is related to the noun which means \u201cdawn\u201d or \u201cearly morning,\u201d thus pointing to the importance of not delaying discipline but setting a pattern for your child early on in his/her life. But how early? I make no claim of being a child psychologist, but both personal experience and the wisdom of others more skilled than myself, suggest the following:\nWhen the child is 1-7 months old \u2013 No physical discipline should be used. At this age the child is incapable of understanding the moral nature of their actions or of making a connection between their behavior and the disciplinary consequences that follow. Unless a child is truly exceptional, it is unlikely that they are capable of willful defiance of acknowledged authority at this age. Tragically, many instances of child abuse come when a parent spanks a baby for crying or for merely being fidgety.\nWhen the child is 8-14 months old \u2013 We now begin to see the first signs of willful rebellion and defiance. At such an age, a slap of the hand or on the back of the legs might be appropriate.\nWhen the child reaches the age of 15-24 months, watch out!\nWe need to address one other question. Some say the word \u201crod\u201d means in Proverbs what it means in Psalm 23:4 \u2013 \u201cEven though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.\u201d A shepherd does not hit the sheep with his rod but instead guides them gently along the path they should take. But you cannot simply assume that because the word \u201crod\u201d means one thing in a psalm that it must mean the same thing in Proverbs. Also, in Proverbs 23:13-14 it refers to \u201cstriking\u201d the child with a rod.\n\u201cDiscipline your son, for there is hope; do not set your heart on putting him to death\u201d (Prov. 19:18).\nThere is a dispute among translators here. If it should read \u201cwhile\u201d there is hope, the point would be that you should discipline now; don\u2019t wait another day, lest through your undue leniency the child be set on a path of disobedience from which they may never recover. If \u201cfor\u201d (ESV) is the correct rendering, this is a word of encouragement. The point would be: continue to discipline even when it seems that there is no response, \u201cfor there is (yet/still) hope\u201d that the rod will bring him/her to their senses and set them straight. This is an important word for parents who are discouraged, due to the fact that they have a strong-willed child who treats discipline like a walk in the park. Nothing the parents do seems to have any effect. The encouragement is: Be persistent! Don\u2019t give up hope!\nBut what about the second half of the verse: \u201cdo not set your heart on putting him to death.\u201d Some take this as a warning against excessive physical discipline lest the parent carry chastisement to the point of killing a child. That\u2019s a much-needed warning, but it\u2019s unlikely what the text means. Surely the second half of the verse must be compatible and in keeping with the first half. The point is this: However sinful and seemingly incorrigible your child may appear to be, don\u2019t give up; continue your discipline of him; do not say in despair, \u201cI can\u2019t do anything more with him/her; sooner or later he\u2019ll die for his behavior.\u201d In other words, the phrase does not mean don\u2019t chastise him excessively lest he die, but rather, don\u2019t contribute to his premature death by failing to chastise him sufficiently. As one commentary has put it, \u201cDon\u2019t indulge him to his own destruction.\u201d\nIn either case, we can rightly say: \u201cEither by too much discipline you may kill him, or by too little discipline he may kill himself.\u201d\n(3) Proverbs 22:6\n\u201cTrain up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it\u201d (Prov. 22:6).\nThis is surely the most famous passage in all of Proverbs on the subject of child-rearing and discipline. But there is considerable dispute as to what it means!\nBefore I jump into the options, I want to point out that the verb translated \u201ctrain up\u201d comes from the Hebrew word that means to initiate, or to begin, or to inaugurate. It was often used of the dedication of objects, such as the Temple. In fact, it is the word from which the Hebrew term Hanukkah is derived. You will recall that Hanukkah is the Jewish festival commemorating the re-dedication of the Temple following its defilement by Antiochus Epiphanes in the 2nd century b.c. Some conclude from this that parents are therefore to consecrate and dedicate their children to God from a very early age, committing themselves from the start to raise them for the glory of God.\n(a) Most take this as a promise, or at least as a general rule (admitting of some exceptions). There is but one way that every child \u201cshould\u201d go and that is in the path of obedience and righteousness and truth as a disciple of Jesus. In other words, the \u201cway he should go\u201d is God\u2019s way of holiness and trust in Christ. If you are faithful to do this, rest assured that even in old age he/she will not depart from it.\nBut what about the second half of the verse? What precisely are we being told? Some take this to mean that if you raise your child in the way Scripture prescribes God will save him/her. But we know this isn\u2019t always true. It is true, of course, that God most often works through means. Being raised in a Christian home with parents who discipline and educate their kids according to God\u2019s Word more often than not results in those children eventually coming to faith in Jesus. But we all know of exceptions to this. And what about those kids who are raised in ungodly homes by abusive parents? Some of them have wonderful stories of conversion to Christ.\nOthers take this to mean that although they may not be saved they will retain in large measure the moral influence of their upbringing. Or perhaps if they are raised properly, but then go astray, at some point in the future they will return to the lifestyle and moral principles instilled in them by their Christian parents. Even if this is the correct meaning of the text, we must remember that it isn\u2019t an iron-clad guarantee. Remember: proverbs are principles, not promises! Thus there are always exceptions. I can\u2019t count the number of parents I\u2019ve spoken with who live in paralyzing guilt, as they\u2019ve watched their children spin out of control well into their adult years. They then blame themselves, concluding that it\u2019s all due to their failure as parents. Sometimes that\u2019s true. But definitely not always. You may well be nearly the perfect parent who established and maintained a godly, biblical atmosphere in your home. You may well have applied discipline precisely as God would have it. Yet your child or children rebelled and they give no signs of repentance. The bottom line is this: You cannot control their choices. You can control your will, but you cannot control theirs. Your kids are not computers who can be programmed to behave precisely as you want of them.\n(b) There is another interpretation. The passage literally says, \u201ctrain up a child according to his way.\u201d Some say this means, show respect for his/her individuality and vocational aptitude. Training and childhood education should be tailored or modified to make room for and to help develop the child\u2019s own unique gifts and capacities. Others take the words \u201chis way\u201d to mean the nature of the child as a child. In other words, train up the child in accordance with what we know about the nature and behavior of children as children. But that seems so obvious and common sensical that I hardly think Scripture need tell us.\n(c) There is yet another interpretation that takes this verse not as a promise but as a warning. When the verse refers to \u201chis way\u201d it means the way or path or manner of life and behavior that the child desires. Here is how one author put it:\n\u201cAllow a child to have self-expression, allow him to pick and to choose what he will and will not do, and as that habit is formed in his youth he will not change when he is older. If he does not learn discipline from you as a child he will never learn it as an adult. . . . If you let your child run over you, if you withhold the rod, if you fail to discipline them, if you fail to diligently and meticulously instruct them in the little things as well as the big, . . . look into the future and you will see those same children unbridled, undisciplined, and unable to bring their bodies into submission to the commands of God. . . . To allow the child to go his own way, to allow him to take things naturally as they come, is to assure the destruction of his soul\u201d (Bruce Ray).\nAnother put it this way:\n\u201cChildren are born sinners and when allowed to follow their own wishes they will naturally develop sinful habit responses. The basic thought is that such habit patterns become deep-seated when they have been ingrained in the child from the earliest days\u201d (Jay Adams).\nThis interpretation may find support from what we read in Proverbs 29:15 - \u201cThe rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother\u201d (Prov. 29:15).\nSo which view is the correct one? I\u2019m inclined to embrace the first option, so long as we understand that the second half of the verse is not an iron-clad guarantee. It is a general rule that articulates what most often will happen, but a rule to which there are obvious exceptions. If we raise our kids based on good and godly principles derived from Scripture, and we should, but at the same time assume this means they will never depart from what they learned as children, we are setting up ourselves for disappointment and disillusionment.\n\u201cFolly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him\u201d (Prov. 22:15).\nThe words \u201cbound up\u201d mean that sin and foolishness are inherent and innate in every human child. There is no such thing as a blank slate or a morally neutral infant. All are conceived in sin and all will go astray at the first opportunity. Simply put, it takes more than merely words to dislodge sinful foolishness from the human heart!\nBut we must also distinguish between \u201cfoolishness\u201d (\u201cfolly\u201d) and \u201cchildishness.\u201d There is a difference between childish immaturity and willful defiance. Forgetfulness, occasional accidents, lack of knowledge about how life works, and physical mishaps are often the result of childish immaturity and do not warrant discipline or any sort. Instruction, yes, but discipline, no. There was a huge difference between those times when my daughter accidentally spilled her milk at one year of age and when she willfully took it in hand and threw it at me when she was two! By \u201cfolly\u201d the author means that disposition in every child that eventually manifests itself in deliberate, conscious, defiance of established authority.\nA child is to be disciplined not for being a child, but for being wicked. The innate tendency of all children is towards folly, not wisdom; towards selfishness, not self-sacrifice; towards rebellion, not obedience; and towards defiance, not submission. And if you think otherwise because your baby is so cute and cuddly and precious and their eyes seem so innocent . . . just wait!\n(5) Proverbs 23:13-14\n\u201cDo not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. If you strike him with the rod, you will save his soul from Sheol\u201d (Prov. 23:13-14).\nThe word \u201csheol\u201d simply means the grave. Nothing is being said here about your child\u2019s eternal destiny. The point is that rather than leading to his death, physical chastisement will save him from it! The child will not only survive in spite of the spanking; he will survive precisely because of it. He/she may sound as if their dying; but they aren\u2019t.\n\u201cThe rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother\u201d (Prov. 29:15).\nConsider that phrase, \u201ca child left to himself.\u201d This happens when a parent mistakenly and tragically thinks, \u201cOh, they\u2019ll grow out of this. It\u2019s only a phase. His misbehavior is only a momentary blip due to his youth. Time will mend her defiant attitude.\u201d No, time only serves to strengthen their sinful resolve. Again, you don\u2019t have to teach a child to be sinful. Just \u201cleave him to himself\u201d and you will surely reap the horrible consequences.\nWe must also be careful to avoid two extremes. Some apply only the rod with no reproof. Parents say nothing to their children before they spank them and then say nothing afterwards. This is incredibly confusing to children and renders the discipline largely worthless. Kids need to know why they are being disciplined and how much you love them both before and after it\u2019s over. Discipline is designed to instruct. The rod without words teaches them nothing. Words without the rod are empty air. There must be verbal reassurance of your love, together with a conversation about what rule they violated and why it justifies a spanking. The child needs to confess their wrongdoing and to acknowledge the need for discipline. The other extreme is to apply verbal reproof with no physical consequences. As much as you might wish this were sufficient, thus sparing you the emotional pain of having to discipline your child, almost always it isn\u2019t.\n(1) Never forget that your own childhood experience will often shape your opinions and beliefs about disciplining your own children. Some of you were abused by mean and over-bearing parents and you\u2019ve made up your mind you\u2019ll never treat your kids the way your parents treated you. They spanked far too hard and far too frequently. The idea of physical force in any expression or to any degree is repellent to you. Others of you had parents who were so lenient and indulging and never disciplined you for anything that you are determined not to let your kids suffer the consequences of an undisciplined childhood. Your tendency may be to spank too much. Others of you had wonderful Christian parents who spanked well. It was always in love, always in proper proportion to the nature of your misbehavior. As much as you are able, let biblical principles and not your own personal history govern how you raise your own children.\n(2) Parents who brutalize and abuse their children cannot hide behind the word \u201crod\u201d in Proverbs. If there is in your mind even the slightest degree of doubt about whether you may have gone too far in disciplining your child, stop. Get counsel from close friends. Better to suspend discipline altogether, at least for a season, than ever to go too far and cross the line into abuse. And remember, you don\u2019t have to employ physical spanking to abuse your kids. Emotional and verbal abuse can be just as damaging.\n(3) Should we use only an instrument such as a belt or switch or paddle and never the hand? Some argue that the rod or a device of some sort is neutral, whereas the hand is associated with the person. Their point is that a child will associate spanking with the hand as personal rejection. You are certainly free to make up your own mind in this regard. For me personally, my dad always used his hand and I never sensed any personal rejection. I always felt it was being administered in love.\nThe word \u201crod\u201d need not be taken to mean that an object must be used. It is simply a way of referring to discipline. We see a similar example in Romans 13 where Paul says the state \u201cdoes not bear the sword in vain\u201d (v. 4). The word \u201csword\u201d is symbolic of its authority to punish criminals, just as \u201crod\u201d is symbolic for the authority of parents to discipline their kids.\n(4) Do all children need the same kind and frequency of discipline? No. Every child is different. Our firstborn daughter, Melanie, was strong-willed and required considerably more discipline than our second daughter, Joanna. With Joanna, a stern glance in her direction would almost always induce in her the fear of God and of me and would result in the appropriate behavior on her part. Melanie, on the other hand, most often needed a bit more persuading! The same was true of me and my sister. As difficult as this may be for some of you to believe, I was incredibly compliant as a child. Of course, that changed as I got older, but as a child my parents had to be careful in saying No to me about anything because it would virtually paralyze me from ever doing anything at all. My sister on the other hand was incredibly strong willed. In fact, I think she was just more sinful (and probably still is! I\u2019m certain I\u2019ll hear from her about this when she listens to the podcast!).\n(5) If you should spank your child or discipline them in any way and later discover that you were wrong about their behavior, be quick to apologize and ask for their forgiveness. Don\u2019t be afraid to demonstrate to your children what true repentance is.\nMy earthly father is now with my Heavenly Father. He was not only my father, he was my best friend. Our relationship was very special and I miss him dearly. One thing about my dad, to which my sister will also testify, is that he was a firm disciplinarian. Like most godly parents, prior to the moment of truth (and pain), he would say something like: \u201cSam, this is going to hurt me more than it hurts you.\u201d I never said so, but I distinctly remember thinking: \u201cWho does he think he\u2019s kidding? It\u2019s my bottom that\u2019s getting whacked!\u201d Being the father of two daughters myself, I now know what he meant. I got physically nauseated every time I had to spank one of my girls.\nThe author of Hebrews says that our fathers \u201cdisciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he [God] disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness\u201d (v. 10). My dad did what he thought \u201cbest.\u201d But unlike God, his discipline wasn\u2019t perfect. If he were here he might want to argue that point, but I am convinced he erred on at least one occasion.\nIt happened one night during dinner. I couldn\u2019t have been more than six or seven years old. My mother had the audacity(!) to serve squash that night. I hate squash. I detest and loathe squash. When God pronounced the curse on Adam, He said: \u201cCursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat squash all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field [again, squash, I\u2019m sure]. By the sweat of your brow you will eat squash\u201d (Genesis 3:17-19; author\u2019s paraphrase!).\nI don\u2019t care how you fix it or in what other food you try to hide it, squash stinks. It is the curse of God that has befallen earth for Adam\u2019s sin. We are all being punished.\nGetting back to the point, I refused to eat squash the night my mother served it. My dad tried to persuade me that it was most certainly in my best interests if I did. I refused. He took decisive and disciplinary action. Ouch! I have nothing but the highest regard and respect for my dad. But this time he blew it. To spank a child for refusing to eat squash is simply indefensible! Right?\nLet me say this one thing in conclusion. I strongly urge young parents to speak often with a variety of older, more mature, more experienced Christians about principles and practices of raising and disciplining children. Don\u2019t yield to the assumption that you always know what is best for your kids. It may strike a blow against your pride to admit that you\u2019re no expert, but your children will reap a great blessing when you seek counsel from the community of faith.\n\u201cFathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord\u201d (Eph. 6:4).",

        "raw_content": "Upcoming Legislation for 2015-2016 Session\nPolice Worn Body Cameras:\nLaw enforcement technology is moving quicker than policy and legislation. There are certainly many pros to body cameras when a strong evidence based policy is in place prior to their implementation. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Officers Association is in favor of exploring new technology including police body worn cameras. In fact many agencies across South Carolina currently use them or are in the process of acquiring them. We believe it is important to balance that technology with the privacy of some victims and witnesses as well as officers. One such example would be a victim of sexual assault who wishes not to be video recorded. We further believe there are certain officers, detectives, investigators, and agents who should be exempt from such legislation as it would impede their ability to effectively carry out their sworn duties. We look forward to working with the General Assembly to pass legislation that will ultimately display the professionalism of law enforcement officers across this State.\nMedical Marijuana:\nThe Medical Marijuana Study Committee continues to meet around the state and seem keen on the expansion of the Cannibidiol law that was passed last year. While there have been advances in medical science we are still years away from any viable usage of these experimental drugs in SC. SCLEOA will remain opposed to the expansion of this bill. As law enforcement professionals our mission is to protect the citizens of South Carolina.\nAccording to the new report by the Rocky Mountain - High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area entitled \u201cThe Legalization of Marijuana in Colorado: The Impact,\u201d the impact of legalized marijuana in Colorado has resulted in:\n1. The majority of DUI drug arrests involve marijuana and 25 to 40 percent were marijuana alone.\n2. In 2012, 10.47 percent of Colorado youth ages 12 to 17 were considered current marijuana users compared to 7.55 percent nationally. Colorado ranked fourth in the nation, and was 39 percent higher than the national average.\n3. Drug-related student suspensions/expulsions increased 32 percent from school years 2008-09 through 2012-13, the vast majority were for marijuana violations.\n4. In 2012, 26.81 percent of college age students were considered current marijuana users compared to 18.89 percent nationally, which ranks Colorado third in the nation and 42 percent above the national average.\n5. In 2013, 48.4 percent of Denver adult arrestees tested positive for marijuana, which is a 16 percent increase from 2008.\n6. From 2011 through 2013 there was a 57 percent increase in marijuana-related emergency room visits.\n7. Hospitalizations related to marijuana has increased 82 percent since 2008.\nExpungements:\nThe Expungement Study Committee submitted a final report in October and it is clear they have a specific goal of broadly expanding current expungement law. Over 20 people testified with most, outside of the law enforcement community, favoring expansion. SCLEOA, along with other law enforcement and victims advocates, will continue to oppose any broad expansion of the current expungement laws. The report outlines possible expansion to include all misdemeanors, non-violent felonies and drug offenses. We believe that this expansion would be harmful not only to law enforcement in South Carolina but also to the business community.\nCDV Reform:\nThe House CDV Reform Committee continues to meet to discuss proactive and reactive ways to lower the rate of Domestic Violence in South Carolina. We know one of the most dangerous calls an officer gets is a domestic call. This committee is taking the time to hear from experts around South Carolina as well as other states. SCLEOA has spoken to law enforcement officials from around the State and agree it is past time to take a stand. Below are some of the proposals to further enhance our current CDV laws:\nA) Provide an Enhancement for any CDV committed in the presence of a child;\nB) Provide an Enhancement for any CDV involving strangulation;\nC) Model CDV laws after Burglary laws so there is a tiered system;\nD) Revamp the current bond hearing system for CDV offenders to include a mandatory 24 hour cooling off period, mandate a surety bond (no PR bonds), and increase the usage of electronic monitoring when there is elevated violence or substantiated threats of elevated violence;\nE) Establish widespread CDV Courts where there is a prosecutor and judge assigned to handle CDV cases;\nF) Establish temporary protective orders that can be signed by an officer and/or on duty magistrates until an Order of Protection can be heard in Family Court;\nG) Advanced meaningful CDV training for law enforcement officers.\nThe 2nd Regular Session of the 120th South Carolina General Assembly ended on June 5, 2014. As always, the SCLEOA worked diligently during this session to maintain our reputation as, \"The Voice of Law Enforcement in South Carolina Since 1941.\"\nEach year, the SCLEOA monitors legislation to ensure that the concerns of the law enforcement profession are being addressed. We monitor a number of issues including, but not limited to, traffic enforcement, criminal law, the Police Officers Retirement System, and gun laws.\n2nd Regular Session:\nS 19 - Bond reform for repeat violent offenders: This bill changes the bond hearing venue from magistrate\u2019s court to the circuit court for violent offenders who are currently out on bond and commit an additional violent offense. It establishes uniform criteria for judges and codifies the information a judge must have on an offender prior to setting bond.\nhttp://www.scstatehouse.gov/sess120_2013-2014/prever/19_20140319.htm\nS 137 - Ignition interlock devices for 1st offense DUI convictions for offenders who blow a .15 or higher: This bill requires offenders who are convicted of 1st offense DUI and blow a .15 or higher to enroll in the Ignition Interlock Device Program through SC DPPPS. SCLEOA encourages departments to have a representative from the PPP Ignition Interlock Device Program come to your department and teach your officers about IID\u2019s. You can contact Ruth Ann Cartwright at 803-734-9220 or email her at [email protected].\nhttp://www.scstatehouse.gov/sess120_2013-2014/prever/137_20140402.htm\nS 459 - Unlawful use of a wireless communication device while operating a motor vehicle: This bill makes it unlawful for a person to use a wireless electronic communication device to compose, send, or READ a text based communication while operating a motor vehicle.This is any electronic device including telephones, personal digital assistants, text messaging devices, laptops, etc. It does not include any navigational devices or GPS. The operator can however use a hands free device or text while they are legally parked or stopped. SCLEOA did advocate for an exception for law enforcement as long as it is in the performance of the officers official duties. The fine if convicted is $25 and there are no violation points assessed.\nH 4560 - Expungements: This bill allows law enforcement agencies to retain evidence, incident and supplemental reports, and investigative files for the purpose of future and ongoing investigations indefinitely after a charge has been expunged however it must be retained under seal. The information is not a public document and is exempt from disclosure except by court order. If this information is FOIA\u2019d then the law enforcement agency shall redact the name and other identifiers of the person whose record was expunged. For discovery purposes in codefendant cases or closely related cases a prosecution agency can provide unredacted copies to the defendant\u2019s attorney.\n1st Regular Session:\nWe are proud to announce that one of our primary items in the 1st Session was passed by the House and Senate and was signed in to law by the Governor on June 14, 2013. That priority item was the issue of Disability Retirement for PORS Members and was addressed in S. 484.\nIn 2012, changes were made to the South Carolina Police Officers Retirement System (PORS) that would have fundamentally changed the way Police Officers were able to receive disability retirement if they had been disabled while on the job. Thankfully, legislators listened to our concerns and agreed something needed to be done. S. 484 removes the requirement for PORS members to also be approved by Social Security Disability in order to continue receiving State Disability Retirement. In addition, S. 484 reinstates the Medical Review Board that previously approved an application for PORS Disability. All in all, this piece of legislation allows disabled PORS members to receive their disability without any unnecessary burden and simultaneously protects the viability and health of the PORS system.\nWe are also proud of several other bills that passed in the 1st regular legislative session. Notably, S. 8 (which removes the strict liability dog bite statue from patrol canines and requires patrol canines and their handlers to become nationally certified) and H. 3451 (which allows CDV 1st and 2nd, shoplifting, and other Magistrate level offenses to be added to the Uniform Traffic Ticket) have also been signed in to law by the Governor. Earlier in the session, we also saw H. 3560 become law, which prevents individuals who have been adjudicated as mentally ill from purchasing a hand gun and requires SC courts to report those individuals to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NCIS).\nOverall, this was a very productive 2 year legislative session. You can rest assured that the collective voice of the law enforcement community was heard at the South Carolina Statehouse! Obviously, there is significant work still to be done. We look forward to working with the General Assembly next year as we continue to promote and enhance the law enforcement profession in South Carolina.\nAs always, if there is an issue you would like for us to address, please do not hesitate to contact us.\nIf you have an issue you would like for the SCLEOA to address, please contact us by email at",

It\u2019s certainly within a realm of possibility, likewise you could see a rise,\u201d he said.\nLister agreed and said if there was a decline, it was unlikely it would be larger than the rise the housing market has experienced.\n\u201cA 10 per cent fall in Auckland house prices would still see them a lot higher than where they were five, six, seven years ago.\n\u201cHouse prices go up and down, that\u2019s normal.

        "title": "Verizon Report Shows Progress, Yet Targeted Breaches Intensify | SecureAuth",
        "raw_content": "Verizon Report Shows Progress, Yet Targeted Breaches Intensify\nThere\u2019s been a lot of discussion over the last week about the seemingly positive results issued in the recently published 2010 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report.\nUnlike previous years, which saw tremendous growth in the sheer volume of electronic breaches and the numbers of records being misappropriated via those events, the 2010 iteration of the influential paper \u2013 which now includes data provided by the U.S. Secret Service added to Verizon\u2019s own information \u2013 tracked the loss of only 143 million records in 2009, versus the 285 million records stolen during 2008 (or more than 361 million records when you combine both Verizon and the Secret Service\u2019s \u201808 figures).\nThat\u2019s significant, and a major improvement by any estimation, but my first thought is that if these numbers are to be trusted \u2013 and I do trust them as much as any other \u201cindependent\u201d stats of their ilk \u2013 what I feel they likely point to is an improvement among organizations in stopping larger numbers of simpler, widespread attacks (such as common forms of spyware) while they are still falling prey to more targeted, complex campaigns.\nWhat\u2019s my rationale for bucking the many positive assumptions that could be made based on Verizon\u2019s findings? Being focused primarily on the government sphere, it\u2019s hard to forget some other shocking numbers we\u2019ve seen of late. Namely, we\u2019ve already been told in 2010 that there has been a 200 percent increase in intrusions into U.S. government networks (by the U.S. General Accountability Office) over the last year alone, and that 73 percent of those incidents existed for over 9 months before being discovered (per the White House Office of Management and Budget).\nSo, while it\u2019s very encouraging to see that the stronger security controls and policies that we\u2019ve been putting into place for the last few years appear to finally be having some positive effect, it\u2019s hard for me to believe that the reported statistical improvements illustrate that the underlying challenges that we face related to cyber-crime are truly being addressed.\nFor instance, Verizon makes the leap that a slowdown in attacks after the indictment of TJX hacker Albert Gonzalez may be directly traceable to increased concern on the part of attackers over being caught and prosecuted; but with so many attacks coming from overseas, and Gonzalez\u2019 own international partners in crime still at large, can we really believe that criminals around the globe are actively becoming more worried?\nAlso, consider that Verizon reports that while 70 percent of all breaches were carried out via external agents, the number of cases that involved insiders rose to 48 percent, an increase of 26 percent over the previous year. This seems to mean (backed Verizon\u2019s own conclusions) that the organized criminals and government entities who are at the top of the food chain are becoming more successful at finding people with some level of security privilege who are willing to carry out misdeeds against their employers, or even their own governments.\nIt\u2019s imperative that we all respect the reality in the growth of internal threats, because as we\u2019ve learned in many other areas of crime or espionage, ultimately it is the privileged insider who represents the most unpredictable, dangerous and hard-to-find point of risk. If research tells us that more attacks are being stopped at the door, how valuable is that improvement long-term if more privileged insiders, with direct access to certain assets, are actively being compromised?\nAlso, we have to consider that the most advanced hacker crews are increasingly leveraging compromised devices and applications as beachheads for attacks against networks from within. In recent years this \u201cdigital insider\u201d phenomenon has metastasized as the widespread compromise of financial and government systems abounds.\nSo while the number of breaches and records as presented by Verizon may seem to have fallen, how frequently are technically savvy attackers capable of getting a foot in the door and pivoting to precisely where they want to be to make off with the specific records they seek? Again, that\u2019s a statistic that would be hard to achieve feasibly, but we know based on other pervasive intelligence that this is exactly what\u2019s been going on. This is how the aeronautics for the President\u2019s personal aircraft end up located on a server discovered in the Middle East.\nOur lack of appreciation for the sophistication and organization of our adversaries is the real issue here. We must be able to conduct attack path mapping from the perspective of a digital insider in order to combat the advanced persistent threat \u2013 which is most often not a disgruntled employee, but rather a compromised service and/or device. Intrusion suppression is the new name of the game.\nQuite simply I feel that it\u2019s fair to assess that the worst of our adversaries is likely continuing on with business as usual while the low end of the market is where attackers are finally seeing more crudely devised threats get stopped, as evidenced by the Verizon report.\nIt\u2019s not to say that there aren\u2019t things to be optimistic about in the paper, which concludes that \u201ccriminals are not hopelessly ahead in this game.\u201d I just feel that any positive assumptions that can be made also point to some of our biggest weaknesses, with Verizon finding that organizations \u201cremain sluggish\u201d in detecting and responding to incidents and that most breaches (61 percent) are discovered by external parties and only then after a considerable amount of time.\nAt the end of the day any progress in this fight is good progress, but there\u2019s still a long way to go.",

It has clusters of waxy flowers that are either white or lavender in colour. Each flower consists of five pointed petals and a small \"crown\" rising from the center which holds the stamens. The aestivation found in calotropis is valvate i.e. sepals or petals in a whorl just touch one another at the margin, without overlapping. The plant has oval, light green leaves and milky stem. The latex of Calotropis gigantea contains cardiac glycosides, fatty acids, and calcium oxalate.\nThe flowers are long lasting, and in Thailand they are used in floral arrangements. The extract of flowers and leaves have shown hypoglycemic effect in preclinical studies.[4] They were favored by the Hawaiian Queen Liliuokalani, who considered them a symbol of royalty and wore them strung into leis. While in Cambodia, they are used in funerals to decorate the urn or sarcophagus and the interior of the house holding the funeral. The fruit is a follicle and when dry, seed dispersal is by wind. In Indonesia its flowers are called widuri. According to Shivpuran (Hindu religion) madar flower /crown flower is very much liked by Lord Shiva therefore crown flower and its garland is offered to Lord Shiva for peace, prosperity and stability in society.[5] Crown flower is also one of the major part of nine astrological trees (Navagrah tree). Crown flower cotton can also be used to make a pillow.\nCalotropis yields a durable fiber (commercially known as bowstring of India) useful for ropes, carpets, fishing nets, and sewing thread. Floss, obtained from seeds, is used as stuffing. Fermented mixture of Calotropis and salt is used to remove the hair from goat skins for production of \"nari leather\" and of sheep skins to make leather which is much used for inexpensive book binding.\nFungicidal and insecticidal properties of Calotropis have been reported.\nIn India, the plant is common in the compounds of temples and is known as madar in Hindi: \u092e\u0926\u093e\u0930. Its leaf (Marathi: rui) is one of the five leaves used in the Panch Pallava, a ritual assortment of five different leaves used as a totem by the Maratha culture in India.\nIt is known as \u0dc0\u0dbb\u0dcf (waraa) in Sinhala, aakonda in Bengali, erukku (\u0d0e\u0d30\u0d41\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d4d) in Malayalam and ark (\u0905\u0930\u094d\u0915) in Sanskrit.\nThis plant plays host to a variety of insects and butterflies. It is the host plant for Hawaii's non-migratory monarch butterflies.[3] Calotropis is an example of entomophily pollination (pollination by insects) and pollination is achieved with the help of bees. In Calotropis, gynostegium is present (formed by the fusion of stigma and androecium). The pollen are in a structure named pollinia which is attached to a glandular, adhesive disc at the stigmatic angle (translator mechanism). These sticky discs get attached to the legs of visiting bees that pull out pollinia when a bee moves away. When such a bee visits another flower, this flower might be pollinated by the pollinium.\nAllelopathic effects\nAllelopathic effects of Calotropis on different agricultural crops have been well studied. Extracts of plant parts such as root, stem, and leaf affect germination and seedling vigor of many agricultural crops. However, extracts of Calotropis failed to produce any detrimental effects on weeds such as Chenopodium album, Melilotus alba, Melilotus indica, Sphaeranthus indicus, and Phalaris minor.\nCalotropis is a poisonous plant. The active principles are uscharin, calotoxin, calactin, and calotropin. The leaves and stem when incised yield thick milky juice. It is used as an arrow poison, cattle poison (see also Sutari), rarely for suicide and homicide and mostly an accidental poison.\nThe milky latex sap of Calotropis gigantea is a known cause of toxic keratoconjunctivitis and reversible vision loss. Crownflower keratitis is a rare condition and is usually the result of accidental ocular exposure to the sap. During the process of making a Hawaiian lei flower necklace, touching the sap and then touching the ocular surface may result in crownflower keratitis. Damage (poisoning) of the cornea endothelium results in corneal stromal edema and decreased visual acuity. Although there is some permanent damage to the corneal endothelium with decreased endothelial cell count and irregular shape, the remaining corneal endothelial cells usually recover with complete resolution of the corneal edema and a return to normal visual acuity. The condition is usually self-limited and resolves faster with topical steroids. The clinical course of this condition suggests that Calotropis is paradoxically relatively nontoxic to corneal epithelium and highly toxic to corneal endothelium. The painless clinical course may be related to anesthetic properties of Calotropis latex and relatively minor epithelial injury.\nApplied to the skin, it causes redness and vesication. When taken orally, the juice produces an acrid, bitter taste and burning pain in throat and stomach, salivation, stomatitis, vomiting, diarrhea, dilated pupils, tetanic convulsions, collapse and death. The fatal period is 6 to 12 hours.\nTreatment includes stomach wash, demulcents, and symptomatic treatment.\nMosquito controlling property\nC. gigantea is reported to exhibit mosquito controlling properties against Culex gelidus and Culex tritaeniorhynchus mosquitoes which serve as vectors for Japanese encephalitis. The aqueous extract of the C. gigantea leaves demonstrated significant larvicidal, repellent and ovicidal activity.",

Upon arrival at Denver International Airport we will immediately commence our journey to the past! Tonight\u2019s welcome dinner is literally in the shadow of one of the trail\u2019s most distinguished landmarks, Scott\u2019s Bluff. Overnight: Scottsbluff, NE. (D)\nDay # 2 - Fort Robinson / Museum of the Fur Trade\nThis morning we\u2019ll travel to Fort Robinson, a post-Civil War Indian Agency where Crazy Horse breathed his last. We\u2019ll tour the post\u2019s museum and have a guided tour of the historic points of interest, before embarking on an adventurous jeep ride to the fort\u2019s herd of buffalo. After lunch on our own (buffalo burgers are on the menu!) we\u2019ll visit the Museum of the Fur Trade. In addition to the excellent exhibits and authentic Native American handcrafted items for sale, there is an original fur traders cabin right on the premises. Overnight again in Scottsbluff. (B, D)\nDay # 3 - Scotts Bluff National Monument / Agate Fossel Beds\nScotts Bluff was one of the best-known landmarks on the Oregon Trail. We\u2019ll learn about the triumphs and challenges that met the pioneers in this part of the West, and get a bird\u2019s eye view of the surrounding prairie from atop the bluff. Next on the agenda is a visit to Agate Fossil Beds, an internationally recognized fossil site. The landscape surrounding the fossil beds has been a site of change for millions of years. Here on the plains you can see the relationship between land, weather, ecology and mammals. We\u2019ll cap the day with a relaxed wine-tasting at the new Prairie Vine Vineyards. (B)\nThe trail leads to Fort Laramie today as we tour the best-known milepost on the Oregon Trail. Wagon wheel ruts are still visible in nearby Guernsey, mute testimony to the thousands of emigrants who carried their hopes and ambitions westward over a hundred years ago. The living history exhibits and interpretive tour of the fort provide a deeper understanding of both the westward expansion movement and the Native Americans who staked their lives on preventing it. We\u2019ll end our day in Cheyenne, Wyoming at a modern-day buffalo ranch, to learn more about this pioneer mainstay. (B,D)\nDay # 5 - Behind the Chutes / End of the Trail\nThe adventure continues this morning as we tour the Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum where we\u2019ll see western art, carriages, rodeo history and a great Frontier Days video, plus get a first-hand look at what goes on during the rodeo from behind the scenes with a special tour \u201cbehind the chutes\u201d. We\u2019ll have free time to browse some exclusive galleries and outfitters and learn more about the town\u2019s cowboy heritage on a narrated trolley tour. The end of the trail is Denver, where we\u2019ll wind up our memorable Old West adventure with a festive farewell dinner. (B, D)\nDays # 6 - Departures\nAirport transfers are included to Denver International Airport. (B)",

The 7 stones of this wind chime's clapper are aligned in an ascending column, just as the seven chakras are aligned along the spine in the human body. Woodstock Chakra Chimes combine color and sound to underscore the ancient meaning of the major energy centers of the human body. Eastern Philosophy can be difficult for the Western scientific mind to assimilate and yet, many of the eastern claims are being proven scientifically as the time-honored truths that they are. According to the traditions, there are 7 basic chakras, which correlate to the seven main nerve ganglia emanating from the spinal column, as revealed through modern studies of physiology. Each Chakra location has a unique meaning, orientation and healing potential. Woodstock Chakra Chimes are intended to remind us of the strength of mind over matter and, through sound, give us a small window into the balance of the physical and metaphysical. The 7 Chakras are: -Sahasrara: The Crown Chakra. Its color is violet, and it is related to thought and self-knowledge. It is represented by amethyst. -Ajna: The Brow Chakra. Its color is indigo, and it is related to intuition and clarity. It is represented by lapis. -Vishuddha: The Throat Chakra. Its color it turquoise, and it is related to sound and self-expression.

        "title": "Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?",
        "raw_content": "Rabbi Elisha was walking one day and he saw a father and son near a tree which contained a bird\u2019s nest. The Torah has many laws about not hurting animals needlessly. One of these laws is that if you\u2019re about to take an egg from the nest, you must first chase the mother bird away so she doesn\u2019t suffer the pain of seeing her egg being taken away. So the father tells the son, \u201cHere\u2019s your chance to fulfill this mitzvah. Climb up the tree, shoo away the mother bird, and take the egg.\u201d The child climbed up, fell down and died. Rabbi Elisha thought that \u201cif God could allow this to happen, then I don\u2019t want to have anything to do with Him.\u201d That\u2019s one version of why he became a non-believer.\nThe other version is that during the Roman persecutions after the destruction of the Second Temple, many of the great Sages were tortured to death in the most horrible ways imaginable. On Yom Kippur and Tisha B\u2019Av, we recall these 10 famous martyrs. One of them was Rabbi Elisha\u2019s teacher, Rabbi Chutzpas. Rabbi Elisha watched his beloved teacher\u2019s tongue being ripped out by the Romans and tortured to death, after which they did not permit his body to be buried. Rabbi Elisha thought that \u201cif God can allow this to happen, then I don\u2019t want to have anything to do with Him.\u201d\nRabbi Elisha was one of the greatest Sages in Jewish history, on an extremely high spiritual level. So we don\u2019t understand his particular challenge. But as it applies to us, we can learn the following: Even though you may have dealt intellectually with the issue of \u201cwhy bad things happen to good people,\u201d when faced with actual suffering, you can still lose it.\nPeople approach the topic of suffering from two separate perspectives. One is the \u201cintellectual agenda:\u201d A person is bothered by this issue and wants to intellectually understand it. The other is the \u201cemotional agenda:\u201d A person may right now be suffering (or know someone who is suffering), and it is bothersome emotionally. It\u2019s important to understand that these two agendas don\u2019t always coincide. Someone with an intellectual agenda wants answers, whereas someone with an emotional agenda is looking for relief. An approach for one won\u2019t work for the another.\nAs a rabbi, I have witnessed the most horrendous situations imaginable. I have experienced someone 20 years old who lost both of her parents in a car crash. Can you imagine a girl so close to her parents and in one day they\u2019re gone. I\u2019ve lived through a husband coming home to find that his wife has collapsed, and in two days she\u2019s dead. There was nothing wrong with her before. And on and on and on.\nNow when someone is in the midst of suffering, that\u2019s not the time to offer answers. It\u2019s a time to listen and empathize and say things that can provide comfort. I did not try to give any of these people the answers we will be discussing because when a situation is so emotionally wrenching it\u2019s not the time for answers. Rather it\u2019s a time to show compassion and empathy and be with the person as best you can. So let me just state in advance that we will only deal with the \u201cintellectual agenda.\u201d If there\u2019s anyone going through a painful time and is looking for a sense of relief, I am skeptical whether these intellectual answers will offer any kind of relief.\nWe have to clarify what question we\u2019re actually asking. When we say \u201cWhy do bad things happen to good people,\u201d this can mean one of two things. If you listen to the question carefully, it\u2019s assuming God\u2019s existence. People say: I know there\u2019s a God, but I want to understand: Is this God good? And if he is good, then why do bad things happen to good people?\nAlternatively, the question \u201cWhy do bad things happened to good people,\u201d may really be asking \u201cI\u2019m not sure that God exists.\u201d That\u2019s a completely different question. The question of God\u2019s existence has nothing to do with the issue of suffering. It has to do with creation, revelation at Sinai, world history, etc. So we should be clear that the question we are dealing with here is not \u201cDoes God exist?\u201d It\u2019s \u201cWhy do bad things happen to good people?\u201d\nIn order for us to be able to \u201cjudge God,\u201d we have to be able to look at what are God\u2019s \u201cground rules\u201d for existence. Using this premise, it becomes very difficult to judge God. Why? Because we are stuck in a finite perspective of time and space, and we can therefore never be sure which rules God is employing at any given moment.\nIn discussing this issue, we\u2019re not going to give an answer as to why particular things happen in a particular situation. Only a prophet can do that and it\u2019s been a long time since God spoke to me! What we can do is look at general approaches that Judaism offers, to at least get a general sense of what the possibilities are for why things happen.\nHere\u2019s an analogy: A physicist can tell you why a leaf will fall in a particular place - it has to do with the aerodynamics of the leaf, the force of gravity, and the direction and velocity of the wind. But if you ask that physicist where a certain leaf is going to fall, he is not going to be able to tell you, because he can\u2019t precisely quantify the different forces that make a leaf fall in a particular place. He can give you the general principles, but he can\u2019t give you a precise analysis of a specific situation.\nIt\u2019s the same idea here. We won\u2019t be able to say why specific things are happening in a specific situation, but we will be able to speak about general principles that can lead us to understand the workings of a good God.\nThe Torah tells us: \u201cGod created man in His image, in the image of God He created him\u201d (Genesis 1:27). What does it mean that man was created in God\u2019s image? Human beings are finite and corporal. So how are we created in God\u2019s image?\nObviously the \u201cimage of God\u201d is dealing with the non-physical part of us - the soul. Where do we get our drive for morality and meaning, our drive to make a difference? That drive is from the soul which is in the \u201cimage of God.\u201d\nBut there\u2019s more to it than that. Just as God has independent choice, so too does each human being have independent moral choice. The image of God means that we have the ability to choose.\nWhy is choice the essential issue of what makes us special? Because if you think about it, life only becomes meaningful because of our ability to choose. For example, the difference in being \u201cprogrammed to love\u201d and the choice to love, is precisely what makes love significant. Similarly, if I don\u2019t have the choice to do good, but am programmed to do good, then there\u2019s nothing meaningful about it. Whereas if I have the ability to do good or evil, then good becomes significant.\nBut it goes deeper still. For choice to be authentic, there have to be consequences. If every time I get in trouble, dad comes to bail me out, that\u2019s not really choice. Choice means consequences. Think about it. All of history - whether in our personal lives or from a global perspective - is based on the decisions that human beings have made - and the consequences that flow from that.\nSo now we can understand that \u201cimage of God\u201d means that God created beings who have the ability to make decisions, and those decisions will create consequences that will make this being a co-partner in the development of the world. This has many ramifications as far as \u201cwhy bad things happen to good people\u201d and certainly you can start seeing it already.\nNow I think we\u2019re ready to examine eight ground rules which Judaism spells out for how God interacts with the world.\nGROUND RULE #1\nFor free choice to operate, it\u2019s obvious that evil has to have the possibility of existing. If every time someone chooses to do evil, God is going to interfere, then there\u2019s no moral choice. If every time the gun is pointed, the turret points backwards, after a few times you get the message. If you eat pork and get struck by lightning, then you\u2019re not \u201cmorally choosing,\u201d you just see it doesn\u2019t work. It simply becomes pragmatic not to do evil.\nIf the lives of the righteous were obviously perfect, that too would destroy the possibility of choice. Pragmatically, we\u2019d figure it pays more to be righteous because look at the millions of bucks that come my way! That\u2019s not choice. That\u2019s not becoming God-like.\nAfter the Exodus from Egypt when the Red Sea split, it was obvious to everyone that God had performed a miracle. Yet the Torah tells us \u201cthat a strong east wind blew all night\u201d (Exodus 14:21). Why was there a strong wind blowing? Because God had to leave open at least the possibility for someone to say, \u201cNo, there was no miracle. It was a fluke of nature and the wind split the sea.\u201d\nIn Genesis 15:13, God tells Abraham, \u201cKnow that your descendents are going to be enslaved in a land they don\u2019t know,\u201d which of course ends up being Egypt. So the Jewish philosophers ask: \u201cIf God wanted the Jewish people to be enslaved in Egypt, why did he punish the Egyptians?\u201d Tough question!\nNachmanides explains: \u201cAll God said is that they would be enslaved. He said nothing about torture and murder. God only said that he wanted a certain something to happen, but the Egyptians took it beyond that.\u201d\nNow the question is, \u201cDo the Jewish people deserve intervention or not?\u201d Different story.\nIn Deuteronomy, Moses says that the fate of people depends on our relationship to God. The more we move closer to Him, the more He moves closer to us. The more we move away from him, the more He does the same. The language used is \u201cGod hides His face.\u201d And when that happens, this leaves us open to the free will decisions of human beings. At times God does not intervene.\nWe have to appreciate that in the Holocaust, it was not God who built the crematoriums, it was the Nazis. It is not God who is massacring Moslems in Bosnia, it is the Serbs. Which of course raises the question: Why isn\u2019t God interfering? But do you see the difference between \u201cGod doing this\u201d and \u201cwhy is God not interfering?\u201d\nKing David said, \u201cGod, I\u2019d rather have direct punishment from you than to fall into the hands of a human being.\u201d Because that\u2019s dangerous stuff. Will you merit to have God intervene?\nThe question of \u201cwhy do bad things happen to good people\u201d has a lot to do with how we look at existence. The way we usually perceive things is like this: A \u201cgood life\u201d means that I make a comfortable living, I enjoy good health, and then I die peacefully at age 80. That\u2019s a good life. Anything else is \u201cbad.\u201d\nIn a limited sense, that\u2019s true. But if we have a soul and there is such a thing as eternity, then that changes the picture entirely. Eighty years in the face of eternity is not such a big deal.\nFrom Judaism\u2019s perspective, our eternal soul is as real as our thumb. This is the world of doing, and the \u201cworld to come\u201d is where we experience the eternal reality of whatever we\u2019ve become. Do you think after being responsible for the torture and deaths of millions of people, that Hitler could really \u201cend it all\u201d by just swallowing some poison? No. Ultimate justice is found in another dimension.\nBut the concept goes much deeper. From an eternal view, if the ultimate pleasure we\u2019re going after is transcendence - the eternal relationship with the Almighty Himself, then who would be luckier: Someone who lives an easy life with little connection to God, or someone who is born handicapped, and despite the challenges, develops a connection with God. Who would be \u201cluckier\u201d in terms of eternal existence? All I\u2019m trying to point out is that the rules of life start to look different from the point of view of eternity, as opposed to just the 70 or 80 years we have on earth.\nI heard a cute story I\u2019d like to share. There once was a farmer who owned a horse. And one day the horse ran away. All the people in the town came to console him because of the loss. \u201cOh, I don\u2019t know,\u201d said the farmer, \u201cmaybe it\u2019s a bad thing and maybe it\u2019s not.\u201d\nA few days later, the horse returned to the farm accompanied by 20 other horses. (Apparently he had found some wild horses and made friends!) All the townspeople came to congratulate him: \u201cNow you have a stable full of horses!\u201d \u201cOh, I don\u2019t know,\u201d said the farmer, \u201cmaybe it\u2019s a good thing and maybe it\u2019s not.\u201d\nA few days later, the farmer\u2019s son was out riding one of the new horses. The horse got wild and threw him off, breaking the son\u2019s leg. So all the people in town came to console the farmer because of the accident. \u201cOh, I don\u2019t know,\u201d said the farmer, \u201cmaybe it\u2019s a bad thing and maybe it\u2019s not.\u201d\nA few days later, the government declared war and instituted a draft of all able-bodied young men. They came to the town and carted off hundreds of young men, except for the farmer\u2019s son who had a broken leg. \u201cNow I know,\u201d said the farmer, \u201cthat it was a good thing my horse ran away.\u201d\nThe point of this story is obvious. Life is a series of events, and until we\u2019ve reached the end of the series, it\u2019s hard to know exactly why things are happening. That\u2019s one reason the Torah commands us to give respect to every elderly person - because through the course of life experience, they have seen the jigsaw puzzle pieces fall into place.\nThe Torah itself makes this point very clearly. Jacob is raising the next generation of the Jewish people, bringing to the world the message of Ethical Monotheism. And the key character in that picture is his son Joseph, who is kidnapped by his own brothers and sent down to Egypt. Imagine you would come to Jacob at that point in time and ask him about a good God. What\u2019s he going to answer?\nIt is interesting that one of the weekly Torah portions, \u201cMiketz,\u201d ends on a bad note, and is then resolved at the beginning of the following week. Why didn\u2019t the Torah simply extend \u201cMiketz\u201d a few verses and have it end good? Because the Torah wants to communicate the lesson that we don\u2019t always see the whole picture. Sometimes you have to wait to see how \u201cthings turn out good in end.\u201d\nSometimes what we perceive as punishment is really an opportunity for growth. In the story of the \u201cBinding of Isaac,\u201d the Torah says that \u201cGod tested Abraham.\u201d The question is: Doesn\u2019t God know what Abraham is capable of? So who\u2019s the test for? It can\u2019t be for God. It must be for Abraham.\nWhat does it mean to be tested? You have potential. Now the question is can you actualize your potential? We grow when we have to extend ourselves. The Hebrew word for test - \u201cNisa,\u201d is the same as one of the Hebrew words for flag - \u201cNes.\u201d What\u2019s the connection? You hoist a flag; so too through being tested, we become hoisted to higher and higher levels. Was this test a \u201cpunishment\u201d for Abraham? Of course not. It was an opportunity for growth. The Abraham before the test is not the same Abraham after the test.\nImagine a track coach training an athlete in the 110-meter high hurdles. The coach would start with the hurdles low, and then raise them steadily as the athlete progressed. Raising the hurdles is not a punishment; rather it shows the coach\u2019s increasing confidence in the athlete\u2019s ability.\nAs a rabbi, I hear this over and over again: \u201cWhen this event happened in my life, it seemed so negative; now I understand why it was there and how I grew from it.\nThree years ago, a very dynamic woman I know almost died. Her heart stopped on the table. She tells me it was the best thing that ever happened to her. \u201cI was in overdrive, running and doing. That event got me to think: What\u2019s it all about?\u201d And what this woman has accomplished in the last few years in personal growth is unbelievable. She\u2019s convinced that her suffering was integral to the growth process.\nIn Judaism, we look at life as \u201cI\u2019m here for growth, so how does this situation help me to change and grow?\u201d When God is telling you to sacrifice your only son, can there be any greater punishment? Yet it changed the whole future of the Jewish people. \u201cTests\u201d can change your future, too.\nThe Talmud (Yoma 35) tells the famous story of the sage Hillel. At the time, the head of the yeshiva wanted to make sure that the people who came to study Torah wanted it for the right reasons, and not for self-aggrandizement. So in order to test people\u2019s motivation, he charged money to enter the yeshiva.\nHillel was as poor and impoverished as they come. In the winter, he wanted so much to study that he climbed up to the roof by the skylight, and then became so enraptured with his studies that he didn\u2019t realize he\u2019d become frozen in. The next morning it was dark in the study hall. So they looked up and saw a person\u2019s body. They brought him down and thawed him out.\nThe Talmud states: \u201cHillel obligates the poor.\u201d That means that Hillel takes away the excuse that we didn\u2019t accomplish what we were supposed to in life due to lack of money. Hillel serves as a beacon that even in poverty, one can still become the greatest of the great (which Hillel was).\nWas Hillel punished or was this his reason for being here? The Talmud tells us this was his reason for being here. You don\u2019t know why a particular situation might be happening. We each have our own package. Each one of us is put here for a particular purpose. Sometimes \u201csuffering\u201d may actually be the reason we were put here. Maybe this is, so to speak, our glory, our unique contribution.\nINDIVIDUAL & COMMUNITY\nWe are living in a very complex world and in a complex world, God doesn\u2019t only deal with individuals, he also deals with nations.\nWhen God decided to destroy Sodom and Gomorra, Abraham complained. He asked God, \u201cIf I can find 50 righteous people in Sodom and Gomorra, will you spare the cities?\u201d God said, \u201cNo problem, I won\u2019t destroy it.\u201d Abraham bargained with God until he got down to 10 righteous people and God said, \u201cOkay, if you can find 10 righteous people I won\u2019t destroy it.\u201d\nWhy did Abraham stop at 10? Why didn\u2019t he go down to one?\nBecause Abraham knew if there\u2019s a group of people who are righteous, then society might turn around - you can\u2019t destroy them. Ten is still a group, under 10 is just individuals. A few righteous individuals is not enough to save Sodom and Gomorra.\nTHE BENEFITS OF PUNISHMENT\nUnfortunately, the way a lot of Jews relate to punishment has been very heavily influenced by Christianity, which is that God is always ready to get me with \u201cfire and brimstone.\u201d No offense, but the Jewish idea is much different. God is our merciful Father. He\u2019s an infinite being that has no needs. Punishment cannot mean that He\u2019s \u201cgetting something.\u201d And this is the key to understanding the concept of chastisement.\nWhen you think about it, all relationships are based on reward and punishment. When I bring my wife flowers, she smiles. If it\u2019s her birthday and I don\u2019t bring her flowers, I get punished, either by a burnt dinner, cold shoulder, etc. Relationships that are based on love always play themselves out in terms of reward and punishment. When I do what\u2019s right, I receive positive reinforcement, when I do what\u2019s wrong I receive \u201cpunishment.\u201d\nWhat happens if my wife would always react the same regardless of whether or not I bring her flowers? That\u2019s the worst possible thing in a relationship - indifference.\nJudaism says that punishment exists because God is reacting to the fact that I\u2019ve done something wrong and He wants me to change. Hopefully I\u2019ll hear the message and learn from that. God is not out for revenge. He\u2019s doing this for my own good. If He wouldn\u2019t react to my negative behavior that would be the worst punishment of all - because that would mean indifference. This is why King David says in Psalms (23:4): \u201cYour rod and your staff comfort me.\u201d Even though I may get \u201chit\u201d once in a while, I know it is ultimately for my own good.\nRemember our original premise? That it is very difficult for us to \u201cjudge\u201d God because we are stuck in time and space. And because our view is so limited, we are therefore limited in terms of knowing which ground rules God is employing. When \u201cbad\u201d things happen, there are so many possibilities of why it\u2019s happening. \u201cIs this a challenge in life that was given to me so I could become an example to inspire others? Or is this to get me to fix a wrong I\u2019ve done? Or is this due to historical/national forces that are affecting me as an individual? Or is what\u2019s happening to me now through a choice that I\u2019ve made? Or that I\u2019m on my own because I\u2019ve distanced myself?\u201d\nThe fact that there are so many possibilities makes it easier to come to terms with the question, to be more comfortable realizing that if I had God\u2019s infinite view I would understand.\nIn Exodus 33:13, Moses asks God, \u201cMake Your ways known to me.\u201d The commentators explain that there are \u201c50 Gates of Wisdom,\u201d and Moses had reached the 49th Gate. This means that only one aspect of existence was still unknown to him. And which was that? The issue of \u201cwhy bad things happen to good people.\u201d So what was God\u2019s answer? \u201cI\u2019m sorry, but this is the one thing that no human can ever comprehend.\u201d (see Exodus 33:20)\nI\u2019ve seen so much suffering, and it seems to me that the key is \u201cattitude.\u201d How people deal with it depends on what attitude they have. I have seen people whose attitude was of anger or hurt to such an extent that they never got beyond a particular event - which then became the defining moment of their lives. In a certain sense, life stopped at that particular moment.\nI want to share a story that I heard from a friend who experienced the following incident. If you\u2019ve ever ridden a bus in Israel, you know how people enter the bus from the front door and pay the driver, and people exiting the bus do so from the back door. Sometimes the crowd is so great that people will also enter from the back door, and then pass their money up front to pay the driver. Well, this one time the driver decided he wasn\u2019t going to allow that. So he announced that whoever had entered from the back door, must now get off the bus and walk around to the front. Everybody complied grumpily, except for one very old man who could barely walk in the first place. Well, the driver stuck to his guns and announced that the bus would not move until this old man came on through the front door. So slowly slowly, one small step at a time, the old man got off the bus and walked around. And all the while, the people on the bus were shouting at the driver for not only his insensitivity to the old man, but for wasting everyone else\u2019s time!\nFinally, the old man managed to make it up through the front door and pay the driver. And then he turned toward the bus full of angry people and told them: \u201cPlease, don\u2019t be upset. We should be grateful that my legs still work and I still have the strength to walk. Thank God!!\u201d\n*This class was written by Rabbi Ahron Hoch, and edited by Rabbi Shraga Simmons.\n*Based on lectures by Rabbi Yaakov Weinberg, Rabbi Dovid Gottlieb and Rabbi Shlomo Riskin.\nThe Midrash observes that when a man is born there is much rejoicing, when he dies all weep. Yet, logically, it should be the reverse. When a person is born there should be no rejoicing over him because his record of good deeds is clouded in mystery and there is reason to be apprehensive. But when he dies there is cause for rejoicing if he departs with a good name and leaves the world in peace.\nIt is as if there were two ships. The one leaving the harbor attract shouts of joy, and the ship entering the harbor attract a minimal amount of attention.\nThe reverse should be the case. There is no cause to rejoice over the departing ship because no one knows what seas and storms it may encounter. Indeed it is a time for concern. The returning vessel that has reached the harbor safely deserves the shouts of joy.\nSimilarly, when a person dies all should rejoice and offer thanks that he departed from the world with a good name and in peace.\nThe Talmud (Brachot 60a):\nRabbi Akiva was once traveling. With him, he had a donkey, a rooster, and a torch. He came to a city and sought lodging, but they would not let him stay for the night. Rabbi Akiva did not complain. He merely remarked, \u201cAll that God does is for the good.\u201d\nHaving no other choice, he camped in a field. During the night, a lion came and killed his donkey. Later, a cat came and ate his rooster. Finally, a wind came and extinguished his torch. Again, he said, \u201cAll that God does is for the good.\u201d\nIn the morning, Rabbi Akiva walked back to the city where he had sought to spend the night. He found the city sacked and all its inhabitants killed. If he would have spent the night there, he would have been among the dead. If the Romans would have heard his donkey bray, or his rooster crow, or if they would have seen his torch, they would have found him and killed him. Realizing all this, he exclaimed, \u201cHave I not said that all God does if for the good.\u201d\nby Rabbi Ahron Hoch\nThe Widow and Depression",

        "raw_content": "Arthur I. Cyr: South Korea President Moon Jae In is a key leader\nHistory encourages persistence, and the Korea Peninsula is an especially important example of that principle. The meeting last summer between President Donald Trump and North Korea leader Kim Jong Un rightly received massive global media coverage.\nMeanwhile, with much less fanfare, President Moon Jae In of South Korea and Kim on Sept. 20 concluded meetings in Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea. They announced jointly that Kim would visit South Korea in \u201cthe near future.\u201d\nPresident Moon\u2019s position is clearly influential, and potentially crucial, to take positive advantage of any opportunities to improve relations between North and South Korea. The two Koreas were a single nation through history, though with some strong regional identities, until the stark division along the 38th Parallel in the closing weeks of World War II.\nThe Trump-Kim meeting has not yet resulted in any major diplomatic agreement affecting relations between the two sides. However, the very fact that the two leaders met represents a drastic change in the previously tense, distant and at times confrontational atmosphere between Washington and Pyongyang.\nAt past summits, heads of government made official what subordinates had labored for months or years to achieve. The gold standard is the two 1972 summits which concluded historic agreements initiated by President Richard Nixon. The Beijing meeting opened preliminary diplomatic communications after nearly a quarter-century of Cold War hostility. The Moscow meeting confirmed two strategic arms treaties.\nThe most tangible result of the recent U.S-North Korea summit meeting was commitment by Pyongyang to return remains of U.S. military personnel killed during the Korean War. This is important for our nation, especially the families directly involved.\nPresident Moon knows his Korea in undeniably realistic terms. His father was a refugee from North Korea. The future president became a human rights lawyer following imprisonment for activism during South Korea\u2019s Park Chung Hee dictatorship. He also served in the Republic of Korea army special forces, and saw action in the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) along the 38th Parallel\nThe Korean War defines both Koreas, and more. President Harry Truman reacted without hesitation to lead United Nations defense of South Korea after North Korea \u2014 spurred by the Soviet Union \u2014 invaded in late June 1950. President Dwight Eisenhower achieved an armistice ending the fighting in late July 1953, and then initiated a comprehensive economic development program as well as important military alliance with South Korea.\nIn the decades since, South Korea has moved from poverty and devastation to global economic leadership and truly representative democracy. Close comprehensive alliance with the U.S. makes this a joint success story.\nSouth Korea has repaid this vital support. In 2001, President Kim Dae Jung made a point of being among the first heads of government to visit newly inaugurated President George W. Bush.\nThroughout the Vietnam War, South Korea maintained approximately 50,000 troops in that country. These troops fought far from home in Southeast Asia because of a powerful public as well as government commitment to the American alliance.\nCapstone of South Korea democratic transition was the 1998 election of President Kim Dae Jung. Earlier, the Park dictatorship had imprisoned him. On another occasion, government agents planned to kill him until U.S. CIA official Donald Gregg intervened.\nToday, brutal realities are forcing the Pyongyang regime to seek economic relief. South Korea President Moon Jae In is positioned ideally to lead. His experience, outlook and temperament reinforce his office.\nMoon can provide crucial, pivotal guidance on the Korea Peninsula.",

        "raw_content": "Casting Notes: New Faces For Pedro Almodovar\u2019s \u2018The Skin I Live In,\u2019 the Spider-Man Musical, and Dexter\nPedro Almodovar has been casting his next film La piel que habito (The Skin I Live In) and got things off to a big start by including Antonio Banderas, with whom the director has not worked since 1990. Now Almodovar has hired actresses Elena Anaya (Sex and Lucia) and Marisa Paredes. Both actresses have worked with Almodovar before; this will be the sixth film under the director for Paredes.\nThe film is about \u201ca plastic surgeon\u2019s revenge on the man who raped his daughter,\u201d leading to the supposition that Banderas plays the surgeon and Anaya his daughter. Refer back to our last piece on the film for a long synopsis of the novel on which the movie is based, as it hints at how weird and uncomfortable this project might be. Can\u2019t wait. [Variety]\nAfter the break, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark has a new Mary Jane, and Dexter gets a (slightly) unusual, possibly spoilerish cast member.\nJulie Taymor\u2018s stage musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark still has the dumbest possible name, but it also has a new girl playing Mary Jane. Tony-nominated Jennifer Damiano (of Broadway\u2019s Next to Normal) has stepped into the role vacated by Evan Rachel Wood a few months ago. Spider-Man is likely to be the most expensive musical in history, budgeted at $50m-plus after delays and re-hirings. Music and lyrics are by Bono and The Edge; Taymor and Glen Berger wrote the book. [NYT]\nFinally, we told you the other day that Julia Stiles was confirmed for Dexter\u2018s fifth season, but there\u2019s another cast member to report. This one could be a spoiler of sorts, so skip this if you\u2019re behind on the show.\nThe report is that Julie Benz will return. The end of Dexter\u2018s fourth season seemed to, let\u2019s say, leave that in doubt. More than likely she\u2019ll be joining James Remar in flashback-land. That place is going to get crowded before the show\u2019s full run is over.

        "raw_content": "The Benefits of Grass-Fed Beef\nAre you planning to attend Slow Food URBAN San Diego\u2019s mixer on February 26th? We\u2019re having it at the Gaslamp Burger Lounge, one of a chain of Certified Green Restaurants known for their grass-fed beef. So what\u2019s the big deal about grass-fed beef? Why is it important?\nWell, aside from having a better quality of life by being able to graze for their food, grass-fed or \u201cpasture-fed\u201d cows are fed a diet that is made up of mostly grass and other types of forage, as opposed to the grain-fed cattle who may be fed a diet consisting of corn, soy, and supplements in more confined feedlots.\nA cow\u2019s digestive system is designed for grass, and it does not handle a diet of corn or soy very well. Because of this, cows fed on corn and soy often experience digestive problems that warrant the use of antibiotics to resolve those ailments \u2013 ailments that wouldn\u2019t occur if the cows hadn\u2019t been fed such a diet in the first place. The extra acid that builds in their stomachs increases flatulence (and associated polluting methane gas in the atmosphere), and also appears to encourage growth of E.coli. Grass-fed cattle have up to 80% less of the E.coli strain in their guts compared to grain-fed cattle, per a study by James Russell of Cornell University (see Rumen Microbiology and Its Role in Ruminant Nutrition).\nSome have speculated that the rise of antibiotic-resistant \u201csuperbugs\u201d is attributed in part to this regular use of antibiotics in raising grain-fed cattle. Grass-fed cows, on the other hand, have the diet their bodies are designed for, and are healthier for it, as they don\u2019t require this added antibiotic regimen.\nMichael Pollan gives a nice detailed explanation about the use of antibiotics in cattle in This Steer\u2019s Life, if you want to read more. Or you can get the same story in his fascinating book, The Omnivore\u2019s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals.\nIf the reasons above aren\u2019t enough for you to want to choose grass-fed over grain-fed beef, there are other reasons. Pasture-based farming also has environmental benefits: less soil erosion, greater soil fertility, and less pollution. Grass-fed beef is leaner, which translates to fewer grams of fat and fewer calories in your diet. It is also higher in certain omega-3s as well as conjugated linoleic acid, which is theorized to have anticancer benefits.

        "raw_content": "Some traders in the oil stocks sector will tell you that they don\u2019t care if the market is up or down, they just want it to move. In May of 2017, the VIX, commonly known as the market\u2019s fear index, had its lowest rating since 1993.\nThat said, volatility in the S&P 500 is relatively low, when compared to its volatility over the last 10 years. However, some sectors, like oil, have been experiencing greater volatility and could potentially offer more trading opportunities.\nHere\u2019s a look at the historical volatility and IV Index mean of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA: SPY).\nSource: LIVEVOL\nNow, compare this to the United States Oil Fund LP (NYSEARCA: USO)\nAs of May 21, 2017, the United States Oil Fund ETF was 3 times as volatile as the SPDR S&P 500 ETF, based on the implied volatility, or the IV index mean.\nNow, you\u2019ll want to keep in mind the factors that influence the price of oil stocks, which include geopolitics, supply and demand, public policy, and economics. For those who tend to have a more macro view on the markets, trading oil stocks can potentially be a good fit.\nThat said, the American Petroleum Institute breaks down the industry into these sectors: upstream, downstream, pipeline, marine, service and supply.\nCompanies that are in the upstream sector deal with exploration, development, and production of crude oil or natural gas. For example, Houston-based Cobalt International Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CIE) fits in this category. The company operates oil and gas exploration and production in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.\nLarger companies in this sector include ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) and Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM)\nNow, when you\u2019re talking about tankers and refineries, they are referred to as downstream companies. For example, CVR Refining, LP (NYSE: CVRR) is an independent petroleum refiner of transportation fuels. It operates a full coking medium-sour crude oil refinery in Kansas.\nValero Energy Corporation (NYSE: VLO) is one the largest players in this arena with a market cap north of $25B.\nSome oil companies deal with pipelines, such as petroleum and liquid CO2. One of the leaders in this category is Kinder Morgan, Inc. (NYSE: KMI). The company owns interests in or operates approximately 84,000 miles of pipelines and 155 terminals. The Houston-based firm has a market cap north of $43B and is the largest independent transporter of petroleum products in North America, transporting roughly 2.1M barrels per day.\nSource: Kinder Morgan\nFirms that deal with the purchasing, storage, distribution and transportation of petroleum by water are referred to as marine fuel companies. For example, Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. (ANW) physically supplies and markets refined marine fuels to ships in port and at sea. Some of its accomplishments include being recognized as the largest independent physical supplier and having the biggest private fleet of bunkering tankers.\nThe fifth category recognized by the American Petroleum Institute is service and supply. This is a broad sector which could range from consulting to equipment.\nNational Oilwell Varco, Inc. (NYSE: NOV) helps drilling companies by providing tools to make better decisions. Its NOVOS platform automates simple tasks allowing operators to focus on the more important decisions.\nSource: National Oilwell Varco, Inc.\nHow Big Is The Oil Stocks Space?\nOn June 6, 2017, the space had a market cap of $3.37 trillion, according to Fidelity. This immense market cap comes from two industries: oil, gas and consumable fuels, which accounts for $3.07T of the energy sector; and energy equipment and services, which makes up $296.79B of the sector.\nHowever, those industries have multiple subindustries. For example, the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry includes subindustries such as, Integrated Oil & Gas; Oil & Gas Exploration & Production; and Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing, just to name a few. Additionally, the energy equipment and services industry includes companies engaged in oil and gas drilling, such as contractors and owners of drilling rigs. The oil and gas industry is pretty big, and there could be a plethora of trading opportunities, if and when, crude oil and gas prices are in motion.\nKey Drivers of Oil Prices\nNow, if you\u2019re considering trading oil- and gas-related stocks, there are some factors you\u2019ll want to keep in mind. Like all commodities, oil and gas prices are driven by the supply and demand the commodities. With traders becoming more focused on the level of U.S. crude oil inventories, you\u2019ll want to watch the EIA Petroleum Status Report on Wednesdays at 10:30 AM ET. Additionally, you would want to keep an eye on the EIA Natural Gas Report on Thursdays at 10:30 AM ET. That in mind, you would want to see whether these figures rise or fall more than the consensus estimates, as well as the prior changes in inventories.\nNot only that, but you would want to take into account geopolitics, as they could affect the prices of crude oil and gas. Moreover, macroeconomics, as well as the U.S. dollar should also affect prices.\nThe Bottom Line For Oil Stocks\nThe level of volatility in the markets are relatively low, but the oil and gas industry has been experiencing some volatility, and that could continue to stick around. That in mind, there is a multitude of factors you\u2019ll need to take into account, if and when, you start trading oil and gas stocks. When you\u2019re trading these stocks, you would want to take into account macroeconomics, supply and demand of crude oil and gas, macroeconomics, the U.S. dollar, and geopolitics, as well as company specific news, just to list a few.",

I wanted to write about the opposite happening. What if a character completely without moral compunctions was tempted to be a good person? In many ways \u201cAlways Hungry\u201d is a mirror image of the usual werewolf story. Also one of my favorite takes on the werewolf genre is the movie \u201cAn American Werewolf in London\u201d. So I tried to use the same tone in this story.\nI\u2019m mostly a pantser with a little plotter mixed in. I used to be strictly a pantser, but if I don\u2019t write down a brief sentence or two on where I want the story to go, it doesn\u2019t go anywhere. I outline, if you can call it that, as I write though, just to keep track of the ideas I get while I write a scene. I don\u2019t plan everything out ahead of time. Whenever I try to do that, I end up losing all interest in actually writing the story.\nI would say the soundtrack to \u201cAlways Hungry\u201d is something with a fast tempo at the beginning and end, with a country song in the middle. Like Hank Williams played in the middle of a Skrillex concert.\nSpeculative fiction is my genre. There are differences between horror, fantasy, and science fiction, but if people actually paid attention to these differences at least half the books in a bookstore would have to be reshelved. I\u2019m sure my differences would be different from other people\u2019s differences anyway.\nMy next project is a near future science fiction novel that I\u2019ve been kicking around for a decade or so. I figure it\u2019s time to get it written before the idea gets hopelessly out of date. I\u2019ve got a lot of stories in different genres that just need a bit of polishing too.\nWhere can readers keep up with you?\nwww.Zorknot.com\nPrevious PostLuna\u2019s Children Author Interview with Melinda LaFeversNext PostLuna\u2019s Children Author Interview with James C.

        "raw_content": "Game-changing research reveals: Epigenetic memories are passed down 14 successive generations\nThe past of our ancestors lives on through us: Groundbreaking research illustrates how parental experience is not only epigenetically imprinted onto offspring, but onto an unprecedented number of future generations. Rather than occurring over the elongated time scale of millions of years, genetic change can transpire in real biological time through nanoparticles known as exosomes.\nUntil recently, it was believed that our genes dictate our destiny. That we are slated for the diseases that will ultimately beset us based upon the pre-wired indecipherable code written in stone in our genetic material. The burgeoning field of epigenetics, however, is overturning these tenets, and ushering in a school of thought where nurture, not nature, is seen to be the predominant influence when it comes to genetic expression and our freedom from or affliction by chronic disease.\nEpigenetics: The Demise of Biological Determinism\nEpigenetics, or the study of the physiological mechanisms that silence or activate genes, encompasses processes which alter gene function without changing the sequence of nucleotide base pairs in our DNA. Translated literally to mean \"in addition to changes in genetic sequence,\" epigenetics includes processes such as methylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, sumolyation, and ubiquitylation which can be transmitted to daughter cells upon cell division (1). Methylation, for example, is the attachment of simple methyl group tags to DNA molecules, which can repress transcription of a gene when it occurs in the region of a gene promoter. This simple methyl group, or a carbon bound to three hydrogen molecules, effectively turns the gene off.\nPost-translational modifications of histone proteins is another epigenetic process. Histones help to package and condense the DNA double helix into the cell nucleus in a complex called chromatin, which can be modified by enzymes, acetyl groups, and forms of RNA called small interfering RNAs and microRNAs (1). These chemical modifications of chromatin influence its three-dimensional structure, which in turn governs its accessibility for DNA transcription and dictates whether genes are expressed or not.\nWe inherit one allele, or variant, of each gene from our mother and the other from our father. If the result of epigenetic processes is imprinting, a phenomenon where one of the two alleles of a gene pair is turned off, this can generate a deleterious health outcome if the expressed allele is defective or increases our susceptibility to infections or toxicants (1). Studies link cancers of nearly all types, neurobehavioral and cognitive dysfunction, respiratory illnesses, autoimmune disorders, reproductive anomalies, and cardiovascular disease to epigenetic mechanisms (1). For example, the cardiac antiarrhythmic drug procainamide and the antihypertensive agent hydralazine can cause lupus in some people by causing aberrant patterns of DNA methylation and disrupting signaling pathways (1).\nPharmaceuticals, however, are not the only agents that can induce epigenetic disturbances. Whether you were born via vaginal birth or Cesarean section, breastfed or bottle-fed, raised with a pet in the house, or infected with certain childhood illnesses all influence your epigenetic expression. Whether you are sedentary, pray, smoke, mediate, do yoga, have an extensive network of social support or are alienated from your community-all of your lifestyle choices play into your risk for disease operating through mechanisms of epigenetics.\nIn fact, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states that genetics account for only 10% of disease, with the remaining 90% owing to environmental variables (2). An article published in the Public Library of Science One (PLoS One) entitled \"Genetic factors are not the major causes of chronic diseases\" echoes these claims, citing that chronic disease is only 16.4% genetic, and 84.6% environmental (3). These concepts make sense in light of research on the exposome, the cumulative measure of all the environmental insults an individual incurs during their life course that determines susceptibility to disease (4)\nIn delineating the totality of exposures to which an individual is subjected over their lifetime, the exposome can be subdivided into three overlapping and intertwined domains. One segment of the exposome called the internal environment is comprised of processes innate to the body which impinge on the cellular milieu. This encompasses hormones and other cellular messengers, oxidative stress, inflammation, lipid peroxidation, bodily morphology, the gut microbiota, aging and biochemical stress (5).\nAnother portion of the exposome, the specific external environment, consists of exposures including pathogens, radiation, chemical contaminants and pollutants, and medical interventions, as well as dietary, lifestyle, and occupational elements (5). At an even broader sociocultural and ecological level is the segment of the exposome called the general external environment, which may circumscribe factors such as psychological stress, socioeconomic status, geopolitical variables, educational attainment, urban or rural residence, and climate (5).\nTransgenerational Inheritance of Epigenetic Change: Endocrine Disruptors Trigger Infertility in Future Generations\nScientists formerly speculated that epigenetic changes disappear with each new generation during gametogenesis, the formation of sperm and ovum, and after fertilization. However, this theory was first challenged by research published in the journal Science which demonstrated that transient exposure of pregnant rats to the insecticide methoxychlor, an estrogenic compound, or the fungicide vinclozolin, an antiandrogenic compound, resulted in increased incidence of male infertility and decreased sperm production and viability in 90% of the males of four subsequent generations that were tracked (1).\nMost notably, these reproductive effects were associated with derangements in DNA methylation patterns in the germ line, suggesting that epigenetic changes are passed on to future generations. The authors concluded, \"The ability of an environmental factor (for example, endocrine disruptor) to reprogram the germ line and to promote a transgenerational disease state has significant implications for evolutionary biology and disease etiology\" (6, p. 1466). This may suggest that the endocrine-disrupting, fragrance-laden personal care products and commercial cleaning supplies to which we are all exposed may trigger fertility problems in multiple future generations.\nTransgenerational Inheritance of Traumatic Episodes: Parental Experience Shapes Traits of Offspring\nIn addition, traumatic experiences may be transmitted to future generations via epigenetics as a way to inform progeny about salient information needed for their survival (7). In one study, researchers wafted the cherry-like chemical acetophenone into the chambers of mice while administering electric shocks, conditioning the mice to fear the scent (7). This reaction was passed onto two successive generations, which shuddered significantly more in the presence of acetophenone despite never having encountered it compared to descendants of mice that had not received this conditioning (7).\nThe study suggests that certain characteristics of the parental sensory environment experienced before conception can remodel the sensory nervous system and neuroanatomy in subsequently conceived generations (7). Alterations in brain structures that process olfactory stimuli were observed, as well as enhanced representation of the receptor that perceives the odor compared to control mice and their progeny (7). These changes were conveyed by epigenetic mechanisms, as illustrated by evidence that the acetophenone-sensing genes in fearful mice were hypomethylated, which may have enhanced expression of odorant-receptor genes during development leading to acetophenone sensitivity (7).\nThe mouse study, which illustrates how germ cells (egg and sperm) exhibit dynamic plasticity and adaptability in response to environmental signals, is mirrored by human studies. For instance, exposures to certain stressors such as starvation during the gestational period are associated with poor health outcomes for offspring. Women who undergo famine before conception of her offspring have been demonstrated to give birth to children with lower self-reported mental health and quality of life, for example (8).\nStudies similarly highlight that, \"Maternal famine exposure around the time of conception has been related to prevalence of major affective disorders, antisocial personality disorders, schizophrenia, decreased intracranial volume, and congenital abnormalities of the central nervous system\" (8). Gestational exposure to the Dutch Famine of the mid-twentieth century is also associated with lower perceived health (9), as well as enhanced incidence of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and obesity in offspring (8). Maternal undernourishment during pregnancy leads to neonatal adiposity, which is a predictor of future obesity (10), in the grandchildren (11).\nThe impact of epigenetics is also exemplified by research on the intergenerational effects of trauma, which illuminates that descendants of people who survived the Holocaust exhibit abnormal stress hormone profiles, and low cortisol production in particular (12). Because of their impaired cortisol response and altered stress reactivity, children of Holocaust survivors are often at enhanced risk for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression(13).\nIntrauterine exposure to maternal stress in the form of intimate partner violence during pregnancy can also lead to changes in the methylation status of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) of their adolescent offspring (14). These studies suggest that an individual's experience of trauma can predispose their descendants to mental illness, behavioral problems, and psychological abnormalities due to \"transgenerational epigenetic programming of genes operating in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis,\" a complex set of interactions among endocrine glands which determine stress response and resilience (14).\nNot only that, but studies are illuminating that genetic information can be transferred through the germ line cells of a species in real time. These paradigm-shifting findings overturn conventional logic which postulates that genetic change occurs over the protracted time scale of hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. In a relatively recent study, exosomes were found to be the medium through which information was transferred from somatic cells to gametes.\nThis experiment entailed xenotransplantation, a process where living cells from one species are grafted into a recipient of another species. Specifically, human melanoma tumor cells genetically engineered to express genes for a fluorescent tracer enzyme called EGFP-encoding plasmid were transplanted into mice. The experimenters found that information-containing molecules containing the EGFP tracer were released into the animals' blood (15). Exosomes, or \"specialized membranous nano-sized vesicles derived from endocytic compartments that are released by many cell types\" were found among the EGFP trackable molecules (16, p. 447).\nExosomes, which are synthesized by all plant and animal cells, contain distinct protein repertoires and are created when inward budding occurs from the membrane of multivesicular bodies (MVBs), a type of organelle that serves as a membrane-bound sorting compartment within eukaryotic cells (16). Exosomes contain microRNA (miRNA) and small RNA, types of non-coding RNA involved in regulating gene expression (16). In this study, exosomes delivered RNAs to mature sperm cells (spermatozoa) and remained stored there (15).\nThe researchers highlight that this kind of RNA can behave as a \"transgenerational determinant of inheritable epigenetic variations and that spermatozoal RNA can carry and deliver information that cause phenotypic variations in the progeny\" (15). In other words, the RNA carried to sperm cells by exosomes can preside over gene expression in a way that changes the observable traits and disease risk of the offspring as well as its morphology, development, and physiology.\nThis study was the first to elucidate RNA-mediated transfer of information from somatic to germ cells, which fundamentally overturns what is known as the Weisman barrier, a principle which states that the movement of hereditary information from genes to body cells is unidirectional, and that the information transmitted by egg and sperm to future generations remains independent of somatic cells and parental experience (15).\nFurther, this may bear implications for cancer risk, as exosomes contain vast amounts of genetic information which can be source of lateral gene transfer (17) and are abundantly liberated from tumor cells (18). This can be reconciled with the fact that exosome-resembling vesicles have been observed in various mammals (15), including humans, in close proximity to sperm in anatomical structures such as the epididymis as well as in seminal fluid (19). These exosomes may thereafter be propagated to future generations with fertilization and augment cancer risk in the offspring (20).\nThe researchers concluded that sperm cells can act as the final repositories of somatic cell-derived information, which suggests that epigenetic insults to our body cells can be relayed to future generations. This notion is confirmatory of the evolutionary theory of \"soft inheritance\" proposed by French naturalist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, whereby characteristics acquired over the life of an organism are transmitted to offspring, a concept which modern genetics previously rejected before the epigenetics arrived on the scene. In this way, the sperm are able to spontaneously assimilate exogenous DNA and RNA molecules, behaving both as vector of their native genome and of extrachromosomal foreign genetic material which is \"then delivered to oocytes at fertilization with the ensuing generation of phenotypically modified animals\" (15).\nIn a recent study, nematode worms were manipulated to harbor a transgene for a fluorescent protein, which made the worms glow under ultraviolet light when the gene was activated (21). When the worms were incubated under the ambient temperature of 20\u00b0 Celsius (68\u00b0 Fahrenheit), negligible glowing was observed, indicating low activity of the transgene (21). However, transferring the worms to a warmer climate of 25\u00b0C (77\u00b0 F) stimulated expression of the gene, as the worms glowed brightly (21).\nIn addition, this temperature-induced alteration in gene expression was found to persist for at least 14 generations, representing the preservation of epigenetic memories of environmental change across an unprecedented number of generations (21). In other words, the worms transmitted memories of past environmental conditions to their descendants, through the vehicle of epigenetic change, as a way to prepare their offspring for prevailing environmental conditions and ensure their survivability.\nTaken cumulatively, the aforementioned research challenges traditional Mendelian laws of genetics, which postulate that genetic inheritance occurs exclusively through sexual reproduction and that traits are passed to offspring through the chromosomes contained in germ line cells, and never through somatic (bodily) cells. Effectively, this proves the existence of non-Mendelian transgenerational inheritance, where traits separate from chromosomal genes are transmitted to progeny, resulting in persistent phenotypes that endure across generations (22).\nThis research imparts new meaning to the principle of seven generation stewardship taught by Native Americans, which mandates that we consider the welfare of seven generations to come in each of our decisions. Not only should we embody this approach in practices of environmental sustainability, but we would be wise to consider how the conditions to which we subject our bodies-the pollution and toxicants which permeate the landscape and pervade our bodies, the nutrient-devoid soil that engenders micronutrient-poor food, the disruptions to our circadian rhythm due to the ubiquity of electronic devices, our divorce from nature and the demise of our tribal affiliations-may translate into ill health effects and diminished quality of life for a previously unfathomed number of subsequent generations.\nHazards of modern agriculture, the industrial revolution, and contemporary living are the \"known or suspected drivers behind epigenetic processes...including heavy metals, pesticides, diesel exhaust, tobacco smoke, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, hormones, radioactivity, viruses, bacteria, and basic nutrients\" (1, p. A160). Serendipitously, however, many inputs such as exercise, mindfulness, and bioactive components in fruits and vegetables such as sulforaphane in cruciferous vegetables, resveratrol from red grapes, genistein from soy, diallyl sulphide from garlic, curcumin from turmeric, betaine from beets, and green teacatechin can favorably modify epigenetic phenomena \"either by directly inhibiting enzymes that catalyze DNA methylation or histone modifications, or by altering the availability of substrates necessary for those enzymatic reactions\" (23, p. 8).\nThis quintessentially underscores that the air we breathe, the food we eat, the thoughts we allow, the toxins to which we are exposed, and the experiences we undergo may persevere in our descendants and remain in our progeny long after we are gone. We must be cognizant of the effects of our actions, as they elicit a ripple effect through the proverbial sands of time.\n2. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (2014).

        "raw_content": "With a history spanning over 147 years, Spaulding Youth Center is one of the oldest organizations in the nation serving children in need. Since 1871, we have helped over 11,000 families.\nThe Daniel Webster Home\nThe New Hampshire Orphans Home and School for Industry was founded by Chaplain Daniel August Mack and incorporated on July 7, 1871. The original homestead included part of Daniel Webster\u2019s Elms Farm in Franklin, NH and consisted of 183 acres. Eventually, this organization for destitute and homeless orphans was renamed to Daniel Webster Home. In 1960, the original site was purchased by the Sisters of the Holy Cross.\nThe Golden Rule Farm\nAs a founder of the Good Will Institute in Nashua, Reverend George W. Buzzell received a gift of the 100-acre Roberts Farm, the original home of Mrs. Colby, Daniel Webster\u2019s sister. He established a cottage method of homing there in 1901 and this farm became known as the Bradley Memorial Home. In 1914, the Bradley Memorial Home was joined to the Golden Rule Homestead, increasing its size to 400 acres in the Pemigewasset Valley between Hill and Franklin. The resulting organization was called the Golden Rule Farm and was known as \u201cNew England\u2019s Own Boystown\u201d serving boys from inadequate homes. Over the next decade, the need for orphanages was eclipsed by the need for a corrective setting for urban children, who at this time were sent to prisons and reformatories. Thus, the Golden Rule Farm made a transition from cottage care to rehabilitative care.\nWhen the Franklin Falls Dam was built in 1939, the Golden Rule Farm was forced to move and the Boynton and Holquist Farms in Northfield were purchased as a new home.\nLater, \u201cthe top of the hill\u201d along with a mansion were added to the farm. The original building was destroyed by fire and only the flag pole survived. The flag pole still proudly stands behind the Spaulding Community Center, which was originally built as the Pangburn School on the same site.\nA Historical Union\nIn June of 1958, the Daniel Webster Home and Golden Rule Farm merged, pooling assets and resources to create Spaulding Youth Center. The mission of this new organization was to provide care and treatment to youth with emotional and behavior problems, thus preserving a tradition of caring for needy children that began shortly after the Civil War.\nToday, Spaulding Youth Center is a leading provider of educational, residential, therapeutic and foster care programs and services for children and youth with neurological, emotional, behavioral, learning or developmental challenges, including Autism Spectrum Disorder and those who have experienced significant trauma, abuse or neglect. Our campus is located on nearly 500 acres in Northfield, NH and welcomes boys and girls from 5 to 21. As a private 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Spaulding Youth Center continuously develops programs, services and expertise in response to changing needs of children and youth who need a place where they can learn, grow, play and heal. Within our intensive therapeutic setting, the professional staff instills study skills, social skills, independent living skills, vocational skills, and an appreciation of learning that help a child reach his or her full potential. At Spaulding Youth Center, we believe that every child deserves a childhood.\nBelow is a timeline outlining recent ways Spaulding Youth Center has adapted it programs to respond effectively to critical issues affecting children.\nDaniel Webster Home, 1874.\nWorking on the farm, 1950s.\nWinter Carnival 1945.\nPlanting the garden at Spaulding, 1969.",

        "title": "Somalia: Stealthy Pirates And Kiddie Killers",
        "raw_content": "Next:MORALE: The Curious Rise And Demise Of Aquaflage\nSomalia: Stealthy Pirates And Kiddie Killers\nFebruary 12, 2018: Piracy is still a problem off the Somali coast, just not the kind that creates headlines in the international mass media. The pirates have adapted and in 2017 there were nine pirate attacks off the Somali coast, up from two in 2016. This was notable because word wide pirate activity hit a 22 year low (188 attacks) in 2017 and most of it was far away from Somalia in places like the west coast of Africa and Southeast Asia. Those 188 attacks created damage worth $7 billion, most (80 percent) of it was absorbed by the ships and their owners. Higher insurance rates and operating costs were the major additional costs. That is an issue off Somalia where higher insurance costs are still a problem.\nBack in 2011 there were 327 attacks off the Somali coast. The solution was an international anti-piracy effort that continues. But shipping companies still have to pay higher insurance rates for their ships that operate in the \u201cdanger zone\u201d (which extends far out into the Indian Ocean). At the end of 2017 the maritime insurance companies had real reason to be worried. In November, 2017, for the first time since 2014 the international anti-piracy patrol arrested six Somali pirates who were caught firing on and trying to board ships off the Somali coast. The accused Somalis were then sent the Seychelles Islands for incarceration and prosecution. In 2010 the EU (European Union) made a deal with the tiny (85,000 population) nation of Seychelles (islands, 1,500 kilometers east of Somalia) to prosecute pirates captured by the anti-piracy patrol off Somalia. The European nations that bring in pirates for prosecution agreed to pick up the expenses, as well as imprison convicted pirates back in Europe. First, the Seychelles had to spend half a million dollars, and several months, to build a jail for (up to 40) pirates who were being tried. Seychelles has an economy dependent on fishing and tourists, and doesn't have much crime so never needed many jail cells. The EU contract, and a small American military presence (to maintain UAVs and other American military aircraft operating from the main Seychelles airport) helped the local economy as has the near total absence of Somali pirates that had been common in Seychelles coastal waters until 2012. For a while Somali pirates operated off the Seychelles, sometimes attacking local fishing boats, and that hurt the local economy. The certainty of being prosecuted if caught proved to be a major deterrent but the pirates are still there, just in smaller numbers and most of them eager to avoid any encounters with the anti-piracy patrol. Instead the pirates prey on fishing boats and small coastal freighters. The trick is to pick a target lucrative enough to make it worthwhile yet minor enough to avoid or delay attracting the anti-piracy patrol.\nFebruary 11, 2018: In Kenya peace talks between the Ethiopian government and the ONLF (Ogaden National Liberation Front) resumed. This is part of a larger effort to bring peace to Somalis throughout the region (mainly Somalia but also Ethiopia, Kenya and Djibouti). Somalia is playing a role in trying to make peace between Ethiopia and its Somali minority. For example in August 2017 Somalia arrested Abdikarin Sheikh Muse, an ethnic Somali who was an Ethiopian rebel leader hiding out in Somalia. Muse was taken to the Ethiopian border and turned over to Ethiopia, which had requested this. That, as expected, caused some protest demonstrations by Somalis who believe Ogaden belongs to Somalia. The newly elected Somali president survived this and remains popular. Most Somalis have mixed feelings about Ogaden. Islamic radicals in Somalia have long sought to conquer the Ethiopian province of Ogaden, which comprises most of eastern Ethiopia and contains a largely ethnic Somali population. The Ethiopians have been defeating these efforts for generations. That is not going to change, especially since oil and gas has been discovered in Ogaden, and drilling is underway. Abdikarin Sheikh Muse is a leader in the ONLF and Somalia has long been a convenient refuge. In 2015 Somalia and Ethiopia signed an agreement to not provide rebels from the other nations with sanctuary. Meanwhile Ethiopia is having problems in Oromia, the region east of the Ogaden, which is populated by Moslems who are hostile the Christian Ethiopians who run the country and the Somalis in neighboring Ogaden. That is another issue that Ethiopia has to handle on its own.\nFebruary 10, 2018: Al Shabaab attacked the town of Afgooye (30 kilometers southwest of Mogadishu) but were repulsed and the attackers fled in the darkness taking their casualties with them. Three civilians were wounded during the gun battle.\nFebruary 9, 2018: The United States sanctioned a trading company based in Somalia for providing goods for ISIL (Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant) operations in Somalia. There are still a few ISIL members in Somalia but they are maintaining a low profile.\nFebruary 7, 2018: In Mogadishu al Shabaab took credit for the murder of an army lieutenant by gunmen.\nFebruary 1, 2018: A landmine wrecked a vehicle 13 kilometers outside Mogadishu, killing two cell phone company technicians. No one took credit but al Shabaab and criminal gangs will use such attacks to extort cash or services from companies.\nJanuary 31, 2018: In the southeast along the Kenyan border eight kilometers of the new security fence has been completed in Mandera (near the coast) on the Kenyan side of the border. Work on the next 28 kilometer segment is about to begin. The fence was originally to be a combination of a two meter (6.2 foot) high wall with security cameras in addition to a deep trench and a wire fence. To keep costs low most of the border barrier is now just a fence and ditch plus a road for regular patrols and to quickly reach an area that has been breached. Work did not really get under way until 2017.\nThe Kenyans began working on a border fence project in 2015 and that led to Israeli involvement. In mid-2016 Kenya and Israel signed several security and economic cooperation agreements including some that included Israeli assistance in planning and building the security fence along most of the 869 kilometer Somali border. Construction was supposed to start in October 2015 but was delayed because of corruption (money to get the fence going had \u201cdisappeared\u201d) and opposition from some of the pro-government militias on the Somali side of the border. Work sort of resumed in early 2016. Many still believed the fence is unlikely to be finished because of high cost and the government corruption that cripples so many major efforts. But Kenya persisted. The Somali militias were persuaded to accept the fence and the Kenyan government made it clear that the fence was necessary to reduce Somali Islamic terrorism inside Kenya. This has killed over 500 Kenyans since 2012 and voters most definitely back anything that can reduce the terrorist threat. By 2017 Kenya said it had the needed funds and had organized the workforce. There were still concern that the fence (wall, watch towers and fencing) would cost more than Kenya can afford as the most effective security wall was built by the Israelis at a cost of $2 million per kilometer. A less effective wall would slow down illegal border crossers but that would not keep determined Islamic terrorists out. Somalia accuses Kenya of planning to build some of the wall in Somali territory. The border was never precisely defined and that is a dispute that has largely been avoided because the frontier area is rural and it normally makes little difference where the border actually is. Kenya and Somalia appear to have settled that dispute. Israel has long been a pioneer in developing effective border security fence technology and many Arab countries use it (without mentioning where the tech came from). Kenya also agreed to increase information sharing with Israel on terrorism matters. The border fence does restrict operations by al Shabaab and Somali bandits in Kenya. These raiders cannot just reach the border and cross to safety. They now have to take the fence into account and that is discouraging cross border mischief.\nJanuary 30, 2018: In the far north (Puntland) al Shabaab used a roadside bomb in the Bari area to attack a truck carrying soldiers. The explosion caused three casualties.\nJanuary 29, 2018: About 240 kilometers west of Mogadishu army forces clashed with al Shabaab near Baidoa and killed seven of the Islamic terrorists while losing four soldiers dead. Al Shabaab survives in this area via theft and extortion.\nJanuary 25, 2018: In Mogadishu someone used a roadside bomb to attack police. One policeman was killed and two wounded. Al Shabaab usually carries out attacks like this but no one immediately took credit.\nJanuary 18, 2018: In the south (Lower Shabelle) a Somali-American commando raid on an al Shabaab training camp rescued 30 children (boys age 9-17) who had been taken from their families by al Shabaab to be indoctrinated and trained to be Islamic terrorists. Five al Shabaab gunmen were killed and six wounded during the raid. The Americans supplied aircraft, backup and advice. It is rare during these raids for the American special operations troops to use their weapons and that was the case this time. The U.S. troops are there mainly to observe their students and note possible changes to the training program the U.S. provides to turn a small number of Somali soldiers into commandos. While the Somali Army in general is crippled by corruption the small Somali special operations force is not. Apparently most of the missions Somali commandos carry out are reconnaissance and surveillance. These \u201cdirect action\u201d raids are the exception. The Somali military has been under a lot of pressure from parents to shut down or at least slow down the al Shabaab efforts to take children and turn them into Islamic terrorists. The success of this raid was a big deal in Somalia.\nThis use of children has been going on for years and \u201crecruiting\u201d (kidnapping) of children has increased. Al Shabaab has long been maintaining its strength in rural areas by stealing children in addition to food and other \u201csupplies\u201d. Families that can afford to are sending children (mainly boys age 8-16) away to areas with less al Shabaab presence to protect the kids from a popular recruiting strategy in Africa. This began with al Shabaab demanding that rural schools stop teaching anything that might be interpreted as hostile to al Shabaab. Then al Shabaab imposed a \u201ctax\u201d on some schools that had to be paid in the form of students. Since early 2017 several hundred children have been taken and several thousand have been sent away by their parents to keep the kids safe from al Shabaab. This use of children was not unexpected because the Islamic terrorist group has suffered heavy losses in the last few years but have maintained its strength by improvising. This is mainly about using children and apparently at least half the current al Shabaab gunmen are armed boys under age 18 and a growing number under 14 years old. This is why, despite losing control of 90 percent of the area it controlled at its peak in 2012, al Shabaab still exists with about half the personnel it had in 2012.\nThe growing use of child soldiers was noted as early as 2010 when the fighting in Mogadishu was not going well for al Shabaab and many of their fighters had been killed or discouraged enough to desert. Unable to entice enough men to join they convinced (or coerced) some clan elders to allow kids (large enough to handle an AK-47) to join the fight. Like most Somali children the boys were eager for the opportunity to have an AK-47 of their very own and people to shoot at. This is a big deal for Somali teenagers. By 2012 it was noted that 10-20 percent of most al Shabaab fighters appeared to be kids. The teenagers are not the best fighters. Most are impulsive and inexperienced so they do not last long if there is a lot of combat and even then they require more supervision than adult fighters. But given the choice between disappearing because of heavy casualties and recruiting more and more kids, many African irregular groups (bandits, rebels, Islamic terrorists) will resort to the use of children. This is not a new phenomenon but it did not become as affordable and widespread until the 1990s. That\u2019s because after several million cheap Cold War surplus AK-47s began showing up in Africa. That made the \"child soldier\" a more practical solution to heavy personnel losses. The world market for AK-47s was glutted by the late 1990s. The only market left was Africa, but only if you were willing to sell cheap. The gunrunners were, and still are, very active in lawless places like Somalia, Sudan and eastern Congo. The cheap AK-47 made it possible to use kids as young as 10-14 as soldiers. This was a new development, because the old weapons (spears, swords, bows) required muscle. Kids had to be older, and stronger to be effective warriors. But now, if you could lift a 4.5 kg (ten pound) AK-47 and pull the trigger you were a killer. Child soldiers changed everything, because warlords could just kidnap or entice kids and quickly brainwash them. These armies of child killers made insurrection and anarchy more common. Tens of millions of Africans fled their homes to avoid these tiny terrors, and many of those refugees died of starvation or disease. These victims were just as dead, even if the bullets didn't get them. In fact, few AK-47 victims died from bullets. It was the massive fear, and breakdown of society, and the economy, that killed most people confronted by all these cheap AK-47s. The kids weren't very good shots, but if they got close enough to you, they were capable of unimaginable horrors. Al Shabaab is continuing this vile tradition, although in the name of God.\nElsewhere in the south (50 kilometers northwest of the port city Kismayo) an American airstrike killed four al Shabaab men.\nCOUNTER-TERRORISM: The Reality Check Comes Due\nMORALE: The Curious Rise And Demise Of Aquaflage",

        "raw_content": "Does A Beautiful Story gives warranty on their products? Satisfied customers are our top priority. We want nothing more than for our consumers to continue to tell our wonderful stories! That\u2019s why we offer a one-year warranty on all our items. The receipt is your proof of purchase. If a problem should occur after this year, please feel free to contact us. We can try to help you find a solution, and in some cases will offer you some compensation\nWhy have the Lucky Bracelets become more expensive? Indeed, they do not come cheap. However, compared to jewelry available at your local jeweler, the prices are similar. The prices depend on a number of things.\nFirst of all, the items contain a lot of silver. To protect all the shards and other shackles, they are completely inlaid in silver. This means they will last for a long time. Silver is a precious metal and so it is quite expensive. Secondly, producing the bracelets is time consuming. It takes a silversmith two to three days to make the bracelet, completely by hand. Add to that all costs for transportation, stamp duty, VAT charges, packaging, marketing, promotion and a profit for the organization here and the price balances out.\nAccording to tradition, a Buddha must be a gift from someone else. \"May\" I buy a Lucky bracelet for myself, or is that bad luck? There are several myths about buying a Buddha for yourself. If you ask the Buddhists in Nepal, they have never heard of the tradition, but there are indeed many people who believe in this. If you don\u2019t want to risk it, make sure you receive one as a present.\nI have a nickel allergy; can I wear the Lucky bracelet? Lucky Bracelets and all our other products are made of sterling silver; this is an alloy of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. This is exactly the same silver you find at jewelers. So people with a nickel allergy can easily wear it because it is bullion.\nHow can I see it is genuine silver?\nAll of our jewelry items are completely hand made from sterling silver (92.5). In the Netherlands, the law requires for all silver products to be inspected. We do that at Precious Metals Deposit in Joure Netherlands. There, they determine the levels of bullion in decorative and functional items and provide these items with the corresponding statutory hallmarks. Consumers who buy products from A Beautiful Story can be completely certain that the specified levels of bullion are correct.\nOn each ornament you will find the inspector\u2019s mark. It is not visible with the naked eye, but if you look through a magnifying glass you see the initials CL and the outline of the A Beautiful Story logo.\nHow do I take care of the Lucky bracelet, is there a certain way I should clean it? The Lucky Bracelets and other silver products are maintained just like all other silver items, namely with a silver polishing cloth (with silver polish). Silver will eventually blacken slightly. After cleaning, the bracelet will regain its shine.\nAre the Lucky bracelets made exclusively for A Beautiful Story? Yes, the Lucky Bracelets are designed by A Beautiful Story, along with the makers of the silver factory in Nepal. These are made exclusively for us. The idea could not be protected. So the fact remains that you can sometimes encounter for example shards jewelry elsewhere.\nAre the Lucky bracelets designed by A Beautiful Story? A Beautiful Story developed the concept, together with the silver factory in Nepal. The story behind it is that we initially wanted to work with gem stones. Since gemstones are very expensive materials we could not afford the high costs as a startup company. So we needed materials that were special and beautiful, but more affordable. The Chinese teacup which at that time we drank tea in gave us the idea! The design for the fragments to assemble by the silversmiths in Nepal was born.\nHow long does it take to make a Lucky Buddha bracelet? Making a Lucky Buddha bracelet takes about 16 hours! All components are made by hand. A job that requires a lot of precision and workmanship.\nSeasons must haves.\nWhat material are the closings made of? The clasps vary per model, the knitted bracelets have a fabric loop fastening, which is tied with a bead. Other chains have silver clasps (made in Dambar's silver factory).\nI have a nickel allergy; can I wear this product?\nMost products are suitable for people with a nickel allergy. We use special silver clasps. The knitted necklaces and bracelets all have fabric fastenings. The only products you need to be wary of are those with metal charms.\nIs A Beautiful Story a \u2018fair trade\u2018 certified company? A Beautiful Story is currently in the process of Fair Trade Certification with WFTO (World Fair Trade Organization); we expect to obtain the label this year. We have been working according to the Fair Trade criteria from the onset, but deliberately chose not apply for certification immediately since it is a very expensive process. Because we often work directly with the manufacturer we know how the work is done and that it is done in a good and responsible manner.\nDo you support specific projects with the profit you make? We do not support any specific projects at this time. The prices we pay to the producers are far above the average market prices. This money helps producers pay their workers well and if necessary to invest in factories or workshops. A Beautiful Story is in the process of creating a foundation that will help producers to develop further (not exclusively with A Beautiful Story). This could mean that some producers will be eligible for microcredit loans to invest or that they can have money available for training etc.\nWhat portion of the proceeds from sales goes to the manufacturers? This is a question we often get. The actual salary varies by product manufacturers. All salaries exceed in any event the minimum of the specific countries and are often far above the so-called living wage. The makers can use this for themselves, so that their families are well maintained. Furthermore there are many others costs in the consumer price such as VAT (19%), the margin for the shopkeeper, transportation and packaging costs and of course a margin for the company A Beautiful Story, for such costs as marketing and communication activities.\nWhen I travel to developing countries, the products are very cheap, how can your products be so expensive? A Beautiful Story imports products that are not of the same quality as found on the local markets in developing countries. The materials we use are of much higher quality, so the products last longer. Furthermore, at the local markets there are often very low prices and so the creators are poorly paid. There are also many costs to get the products to the Netherlands; think of transportation, packaging, import duties, VAT (19%). And finally people in the Netherlands earning their share to be able to do this work. We always pay attention that this is in line with similar products in other stores. All in all, a fair market.",

        "raw_content": "Hino Hot Track: Barbagallo with Lowndes\nThe Virgin Australia Supercars Championship heads to Western Australia and the unique Barbagallo Raceway this weekend.\nOne of the shortest layouts on the calendar is paired with an abrasive track surface and sandy surrounds, making the Perth SuperSprint a challenge for drivers and teams.\nCraig Lowndes has won at Barbagallo more than any other ATCC/Supercars driver, his haul of 16 victories including 12 from his first 12 starts at the venue between 1996 and 2000.\nThe Autobarn Lowndes Racing driver is your guide for this week\u2019s Hino Hot Track.\nThe driving challenge\nIt\u2019s a very unique and exciting track that, with lap times under a minute.\nCar set-up is important so you have a good balance, but driving the car, you need to almost glide it around the track.\nThe Bowl, down at Turn 6, is a favourite corner of mine on the track and one of the most-important parts.\nIt\u2019s challenging because you don\u2019t want to go too deep on the brakes, as then you\u2019ll get a poor exit out of there.\nI\u2019ve traditionally taken a tight line into it; it\u2019s my style, it\u2019s different to everyone else, but it seems to serve me well.\nIn the first half of the lap, you\u2019ve definitely got to manage how much you use that kerb at Turn 3. It could help or hinder you depending on what you\u2019re looking for.\nIt\u2019s a famous corner for that two-wheel approach, but it can upset the balance of the car, especially going up into Turn 4, that uphill left hander.\nThat\u2019s a really important corner. You need to be able to hug that quite tight to then get into Turn 5 and get that run down the hill.\nUltimately, the quality of your tyre will give you a lot in lap time, so strategy across the two races will be important to get right.\nThere are essentially two styles you can opt for \u2013 especially in Sunday\u2019s race \u2013 between a two-stopper or a three-stopper. A three-stopper obviously gives you an extra pitstop but it gives you better tyre life.\nBecause it\u2019s high-deg, that means a lot and I think the only way I was able to do what I did a couple of years ago was because I had a better tyre than anyone else.\nIt really highlights that the quality of the tyre makes a big difference.\nThe engineering challenge\nThe key is to have a well-balanced car. It\u2019s a low-grip surface, so you need a car that doesn\u2019t have too much understeer and it doesn\u2019t have too much snap oversteer; it\u2019s just well balanced.\nIt\u2019s a high-deg track for tyres, and you generally only get one good lap out of qualifying.\nYou need to be able to have the tyres switched on for the start of the lap and then maintain that grip right the way to the end.\nDrive is really important. You want to be able to carry good throttle over the top of Turn 5, up over the crest, to carry the speed down into The Bowl.\nBut then you also need a car that\u2019s stable under brakes in Turn 1, Turn 6, The Bowl, and Turn 7, the last corner.\nAnd, by the same token, you need to be able to carry throttle and get onto the throttle as early as you can.\nEspecially out of The Bowl; you want to be able to punch out of there, because it\u2019s an uphill run up that back straight and it\u2019s a great passing opportunity down into Turn 7.\nMy Barbagallo Raceway memory\nIn my early days there, when I went back-to-back for four years straight. That\u2019s a great memory.\nWe know it\u2019s a very short lap time, we know it\u2019s a high-deg track, everything and anything can happen there, so to be able to have 12 straight wins was a great innings.\nWe went there with great cars, but to be able to put it all together for those four years to get those 12 straight was a great, long memory of the place.\nI remember having great battles with Mark Skaife, during our HRT days.\nWe were one-two on the line a couple of times and I don\u2019t remember how many times but he\u2019d outqualify me so he\u2019d be on pole and I\u2019d be second, but because you\u2019re on the raceline you get a better start and go onto win the race.\nWe had great memories and great battles with Skaife there, that\u2019s for sure.\nDumbrell sells stake in 23Red Racing\nSecond Coates Hire Newcastle 500 launched in style\nSupercars tech director to race for Australia\nSaturday Sleuthing: Simon Wills\nTander impressed by Sydney lighting in trial\nNewcastle 500 tickets go on sale tomorrow",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Historic Maps of Ireland available Online (Updated-2019)\nSearching Irish Civil BMD Records online \u2192\nThe Street listings included in Thom\u2019s Dublin Directory can provide interesting details about the area your ancestors lived, for example neighbours, the types of businesses present on the same street, prominent buildings and Churches nearby, and may help narrow down exactly which part of a street a particular family or business was located.\nIt should be noted that not all streets are included in these listings, e.g. minor lanes and some small side streets are not included, but some character of an area can still be established from details of nearby streets.\nStreet numbers were in use in the City for most streets during the 1800s, and in many cases the sequences used on each remained much the same up to modern times. Some streets were renumbered, especially during major redevelopment, and a number of streets were renamed, many in the early years of the 20th Century.\nThe 1848 Street listing for York Street is included as an example below.\nListing for York St. \u2013 Thom\u2019s 1848.\nHeader highlighted in Red, junctions in Green.\nThe heading section of each Street listed includes key details \u2013 see extract below of the details for York Street.\nThe street is shown as running \u2018From Aungier Street to Stephen\u2019s Green W.\u2018, and this indicates the direction in which the numbers initially run. In this case, as in many other streets, the numbers run down one side of the street with number 1 to 32, to the end at Stephen\u2019s Green West and continue the sequence from 33 to 58 returning back to Aungier Street on the other side. The heading also shows that all of the street is in St. Peter\u2019s Civil parish, and numbers 1 to 16 and 46 to 58 in Castle Electoral Ward, and numbers 17 to 45 in St. Stephen\u2019s Ward. The street is covered by B. Police Division.\nThe street is shown on maps of the time (see below) and based on the listing we can say that the initial numbers ran west to east. There are several clues to help determine which side the street each set of numbers were located, the first is using junctions of the main side streets, highlighted in green in the street listing above. In this case the junctions listed on the first side are shown as French St. between numbers 16 & 17, and Proud\u2019s Lane between 31 & 32, and Mercer Street between number 45 and 46 on the other.\nThe city maps do not always label smaller streets, but in this instance the Thom\u2019s 1848 Dublin City map includes French Street to the south and Mercer Street to the north in addition to Stephen\u2019s Green and Aungier Street at each end of York Street, so numbers 1 to 32 ran along the south side of the street going west to east, and 33 to 58 ran east west along the north side.\nLayout of the Street Numbers for York Street\nUsing the example of the baptism of Samuel Lenox Logan from the IrishGenealogy website baptised in St. Peter\u2019s Church of Ireland Parish on the 21st February 1846, with his parents address recorded as 48 York Street, we can show the family lived on the north side of York Street, and two buildings to the west of the junction with Mercer Street.\nThe later 1885 Thom\u2019s Map (see extract below) shows Mercer St. Upper instead of French street, and the street listing for the same year shows Mercer Street Lower (the section nearer the city centre) as running from Stephen\u2019s Street to York Street. Mercer Street Upper is shown as running from York Street to Cuffe Street, so the street previously shown as French Street.\nWhere Upper/Lower streets have Street Listings the header details for these can be used to verify where each is located \u2013 see details for Mercer Street Upper & Lower below.\nThe street listings include many prominent buildings which may also be shown on maps, and these can also help determine which side of the street each section of numbers are used. For example the map above shows the Gaiety Theatre on the north side of King Street South, and the street listing for that year includes the Theatre at numbers 48 & 49 (highlighted in red in extract below), showing that numbers 30 to 34, and 35 to 56 are on the north side of the street.\nThe listing for King Street South also shows a shared corner building \u2013 with Mrs. Nugent at no. 1 King Street South also having a Stephen\u2019s Green West address, which is also included as no. 141 in Stephen\u2019s Green West street listing.\nIn the case where a street name includes a North or South, e.g. King Street, this usually indicates that there is more than one street of that name in the city, one either side of the River Liffey.\nAdditional historic maps of the city are available on the OSI mapviewer (c1840, c1900 & Modern) and GeoHive (c1840, c1900, c1930 & Modern), in addition to the maps on this website.\nThis entry was posted in Directories, Dublin City, Maps and tagged Directory, Dublin, Street, Thoms.

This multicultural extravaganza was held at Prospect Park in Brooklyn, New York, and was nothing short of amazing. It served as a reminder that black is truly beautiful and that natural hair, although it may come in many strand types, style and sometimes color, it remains unmatched.\nLooks varied from curls, coils, dreads, beards, and we definitely cannot forget color. There was no shortage of color from hair to clothing. And although it was set to rain, that did not stop the attendees from dancing to an assortment of tunes from the Caribbean; showing off their unique festival looks and getting some tips and tricks from some of the special guests in the building such as Curvy Curly Conscious founder Shelah Marie and her boyfriend and rapper Ace Hood, as well as social media influencer Broderick Hunter, who had a few thoughtful words to say to the crowd. Last but surely not least, some of the biggest names in natural beauty such as Curls, Eden, and Shea Moisture were also there selling and giving out samples of their products. We managed to get our hands on a few products and we can't wait to try out our twist-out cream and shea butter and castor oil infused ECO Style gel.\nIt's safe to say we truly enjoyed ourselves and cannot wait to go back again next year. In the meantime, take a few minutes to go down memory lane and check out some of the highlights of this year's event. If you missed it, this might be the motivation you were looking for to not miss it next year. Enjoy!\nAll photos taken by myself\nBlogAtahabih Germain January 9, 2019 70th Emmy's Awards",

        "raw_content": "Internet , technology \u00bb\nRemote Location Connectivity Via Satellite For A Reliable Connection\nAcross the world the need for the internet has been growing so much. Many people are still in need of the web for various functions that define their normal interaction, learning and provision of necessary services. For many researchers who are traveling to the deepest regions of the earth with almost zero connection, relaying their findings in real time is hampered and all their work and crucial findings could be lost if their storage equipment is lost or damaged. They are always at a disadvantage yet at home the internet and better connectivity makes interaction with various stakeholders much easier.\nDeplorable Connection\nAcross the third world countries connection in the remotest of regions is virtually impossible, especially in the area of the internet. The web has brought people together and making the planet one big village. Lack of proper connection essentially denies so many people the chance to interact, learn, have fun and engage in better business opportunities. It is not just in developed nations where people are turning in droves towards working from home as a result of the development of the internet. Lots of people in different territories are highly in need of reliable internet connection that makes sure they have been able to lower the staggering global unemployment levels. However, this is virtually impossible as a result of lack of connection to most remote areas.\nBetter Alternatives To DSL And Cable\nIf you dial up has messed you up and DSL and capable are a reserve for those living in the city, you will find there are much better alternatives able to give exactly what you have been looking for. Internet via satellite is here to stay and currently the best way to connect the remotest regions on the face of the earth. Even those travelling today look at satellite via the internet as the best way of transmitting their information, including live pictures to ensure all they have been working on has not been destroyed in their expeditions.\nConnection Reliability\nThe reliability of a connection means that you must be assured your music downloads, videos, movies, files and software tools are accessible as fast as possible without the connection breaking or being affected when you highly need the content. Internet via satellite means you get the connectivity whenever you need to use it and if you have an organization, it is the best connection medium. For an organization, the dependency on terrestrial network availability is not there, meaning operations are not limited by anything. Employees are able to work as a team effectively no matter where they are located in turn boosting the productivity and reducing the costs.\nBoosting Operations\nAlso, organizations and individuals operating in remote sites will be fully provided with the internet, whether in their mobile platforms or PCs. That way, the services at a remote site are highly enhanced helping in strengthening the customer relationship. As a result of the ability to have customer applications working fine and rolled out easily and rapidly, competitive advantage is boosted.\nIn fact, with the satellite internet, it is possible to use it in parallel with other terrestrial connections towards improving the resilience of a network for most of the key applications in place.\nMark is a blogger from South Africa who has been blogging on technology since last 5 years. He recently blogged about internet via satellite and how it can provide Internet connection to Remote areas.",

In my mind it is truly about the tease element of striptease and is far removed from what most would consider exotic dancing. You won't find a burlesque dancer crawling across the floor to a pounding beat leaving nothing to the imagination. Burlesque is all about the costumes, the dancing, the art of seduction.\nI have been fascinated my burlesque for as long as I can remember. I recall growing up hearing stories of Candy Barr, a legendary Texan and infamous burlesque dancer. I don't know much about her, but she must have been it back in the day. When I think of who would be the \"it girl\" of burlesque these days, there is no choice other than the incomparable Dita Von Teese. The woman is amazing.\nI was thrilled to find the book Dita Stripteese on EdenFantasys. It's actually a really nice set of three small flip books capturing a total of six of her burlesque routines. I have never seen anything quite like this set. I think the idea of a burlesque routine flip book is genius. This lovely book set would be a great gift for any Dita Von Teese or burlesque fan. I'm thinking this is a great gift for the hard to buy for men in your life.\nDisclosure: I was provided with a gift card in exchange for this post. The opinions expressed here are 100% my own and were not edited in any way.\nRead More In: burlesque, Dita Von Teese, EdenFantasys\nHey you know my friend Candy....well that is where she received her name from.....Yes,",

        "raw_content": "Coldplay's 'Mylo Xyloto': A Hallmark of Feel-Good Pop Rock\nThe band's fifth full-length packs a few surprises, though, of course, it's still a Coldplay record\nThe Hallmark Card was invented in 1923 by Joyce C. Hall, but it has reached its apogee in the hands of the band Coldplay, which has, since its first album in 2000, conducted a massive international helicopter drop of Feel Better cards on music listeners of the world. You will recognize the familiar components a Sonic Hallmark. Here is the first page, the acknowledgement of hardship. You've tried your best but didn't succeed. The confusion never stops. You thought that it was over, that everything was lost. Then, ah, the satisfying turn: the symbols crash, the strings ignite. I will fix you. You are home. Everything's not lost.\nMylo Xyloto is the band's newest album, and what a neon bundle of soothing Hallmarks it is. In a recent interview, Chris Martin explained (maybe jokingly?) that the name \"Xyloto\" derives from his belief that music comes from everywhere, including one's feet, as if one had xylophone-toes, and so, Xylophone + Toe = Xyloto. Mylo, he said, is just \"a great name.\" This interview offered an instructive, if not definitive, theory of Coldplay. Either their lyrics are come by in a manner that is ridiculous, or else they are random. How else could one explain \"every teardrop is a waterfall\" (what?), or \"I coulda been a princess, you'd be a king\" (that's not how royal marriage works), \"life goes on, it gets so heavy\" (oh my God), and \"even if your aims are shadows, still we never gonna part\" (okay, now we're just marking time with syllables).\nColdplay can get away with greeting-card lyrics for the same reason that greeting cards can. They are writing for a customer that is interested in feelings, not words. And one feeling in particular: Uplift.\nMylo Xyloto isn't a new Coldplay, just a new costume for the band's satisfying 4/4 melodies, arpeggio hooks, and uplift. The band's debut, Parachutes, was an acoustic, autumnal gem, and, for many people, their finest record. Rush of Blood to the Head added more instruments. X&Y topped it off with angel choirs and synthy strings. Viva La Vida wisely pulled back from those indulgences and forced the band to write new songs rather than release the old chord progressions with different orchestras.\nMore On Coldplay\nEvery Coldplay Single, Ranked From Worst to Best\nUnderstanding \"Paradise\"\nChris Martin on the Haters, Circa 2006\nColdplay/Sarah Lee\n\"Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall\": Awesome, if You Ignore the Lyrics\nThe band's fifth studio album is their most unabashed pop performance, and it contains some legitimate surprises. \"Hurts Like Heaven\" is the fastest song Coldplay has ever written, and one of the best\u2014a bright, skippy tune that seems more like Phoenix than the band that gave you \"The Scientist.\" Rihanna sounds not entirely out of place in \"Princess Of China,\" an R&B experiment that makes for a satisfying car jam, if a longshot club hit. Other songs are more in line with the band's vintage stadium ballads. \"Charlie Brown\" launches with the kind of looping guitar hook that's custom-made to keep looping in your head after the track ends. The penultimate tune, \"Don't Let It Break Your Heart,\" is a wall of sound etched with a simple, proficient melody. (I've arleady expressed approval for the album's first two singles, \"Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall\" and \"Paradise\").\nBut mixed into these meticulously crafted, if inconsistently executed, songs are some inexplicable clunkers. \"Major Minus\" is mid-'90s Radiohead ten years after anybody stopped trying to do that sort of thing. \"U.F.O\" is a simple guitar melody that forgot the melody. \"Up in Flames\" sounds like a cover of an Usher B-side, and that's putting things rather nicely. Two months ago, I wrote that Chris Martin was incapable of writing an abstruse melody. Writing a boring melody, however, remains firmly within his capacity.\nBut enough fussiness. The upshot is that Mylo Xyloto is surprisingly fun and listenable as all heck. Other critics will have something piquant to say about the band's reliance on circular guitar hooks and unhealthy habit of beginning songs on an \"oooh\" vowel. But looking for something terribly new and fresh on a Coldplay album is, to crib a proverb, asking for better bread than can be made of wheat. Or rather, better greeting cards than can be made of card stock. Just shut up and feel better.",

Jeanette approached Cranberry Cottage, Gladheart Acres and Alaska Chicks with the idea of combining these shops and creating one large storefront. As time went on, this idea turned into a plan, and finally in June of 2013 The Boardwalk Shop was born and opened it's doors for the first time.\nIt was always a thought to serve coffee within the shop and in the fall of 2014 this dream became a reality. This gave Michelle the chance to follow a dream of her own, and open what is now known as The Coffee Corner.\nSince then, The Boardwalk Shop has had the privilege of working with Kim of Beauty For Ashes and welcomed her Christian bookstore as part of the shop in 2015. Just a short year and half later, Kim was able to retire and sell her business, which is no longer located within the shop.\nIn February of 2017 the shop closed it's doors for a week and began a huge remodel. It was then that Laurel with The Sparrow became part of the shop and offers inspirational giftables.\nOur desire to create a place for community, shopping, visiting, sharing and somewhere locals & visitors alike call their \"happy place\".\nThe Businesses...\nHome Again Decor was established in 2010 with the desire to create a unique consignment and antique shop. Locals have trusted Jeanette for years to take their gently used new, vintage and antique items on consignment. Home Again Decor also supports local crafters and offers a large range of locally crafted home decor and Alaskan themed items.\nWith a desire of wanting more unique, special and pampering gift options in the valley Patricia and Alicia (along with other family members) started Cranberry Cottage in 2007.\nWhat was once a little gift shop in the yellow house on Knik Goose Bay, Cranberry Cottage is now a valuable part of The Boardwalk Shop.\nTammy has always enjoyed making handcrafted soaps and bath products, but in 2001 she turned hobby into business and Gladheart Acres was born.\nGladheart Acres has been a family owned and operated business since the beginning that Tammy along with her late husband and eight kids all enjoyed doing together.\nThe handcrafted products of soaps, lotions, lipbalms, bathsalts, perfumes and much more are available inside The Boardwalk Shop as well as farmer markets, craft shows and bazzars.\nIn 2010 Charity had a heart to create something positive for the awesome and one-of-a-kind women of Alaska to wear. Along with her line of apparel that has since expanded to include hoodies, tanks, t-shirts, hats, and more, Charity also began collecting and upcycling furniture.\nShe had a desire to support and encourage other small businesses and in 2015 the Alaska Chicks Vintage Market was born. Since then, there have been several Spring & Fall markets and has become a dream come true for Charity.\nLaurel has always had a desire to do something creative and unique. When the possibility arose for her to create her own little business within The Boardwalk Shop, she did not hesitate to jump in.\nThe Sparrow, has given Laurel the opportunity she was looking for to sell primitive decor, inspirational and spiritual items, and her latest addition of April Cornell linens!\nAs long as she can remember, it has been a dream of Michelle's to own a coffee shop. In the summer of 2014 the opportunity of opening a coffee shop within The Boardwalk Shop was presented and she excitingly took the chance to making her dream a reality.\nThe Coffee Corner has since become a place for the community to come, sit together and connect, or to enjoy a coffee while browsing the shop. Through the years The Coffee Corner has been established, it has held classes, workshops, meetings and is favorited by many.",

She is shortlisted for Infidelities, published by Faber.\nChilean writer Alejandro Zambra makes the list for My Documents (Fitzcarraldo Editions UK).\nThe shortlisted is completed by American writers Karen E Bender for Refund (Counterpoint Press US); Tony Earle for Mr Tall (Little Brown US); and Thomas McGuane for Crow Fair (Knopf US).\nThe jury for the award consists of American novelist Ladette Randolph, who ss also editor-in-chief of Ploughshares; British novelist Clive Sinclair; and Eibhear Walshe, Irish novelist and director of creative writing at the School of English, University College Cork.\nAward director Patrick Cotter, artistic director of the Munster Literature Centre, selects the jury and acts as non-voting chairman.\nCotter said: \u201cEvery year we receive more and more entries. It is striking to note that we have three titles this year from small independent presses. It demonstrates that the dissemination of good writing is vital at a grass roots level; that multi-national conglomerates don\u2019t have a monopoly on major talent.\u201d\nSinclair said \u201cShort in length, but long in reach, these stories echo way beyond their starting points in - say - Nashville, Chile or Montana. They reached the shortlist not because they spoke the loudest, but because the words that made them managed to be both particular and universal.\u201d\nJennifer Hamilton-Emery of Salt Publishing said: \u201cWe were completely bowled over when we heard the news that Carys Davies' book, The Redemption of Galen Pike, had been shortlisted for the Frank O'Connor prize. It is, without doubt, the world's most prestigious prize for short stories and to have a book placed up there with the best collections internationally is something we've dreamt of for many years. We are delighted for Carys, it is a fantastic achievement, and delighted too that her book has received such recognition.\u201d\nThe award is co-sponsored by Cork City Council and by The School of English, University College Cork.\nThe winner will be announced in early July and the award presented at the closing of the Cork International Short Story Festival, which takes place from 23rd to 26th September.\nLast year\u2019s winner wsa Colin Barrett, the Irish author of the collection Young Skins (Jonathan Cape).\nO'Brien scoops Frank O'Connor award\nDebuts in line for Frank O'Connor award",

        "raw_content": "Maureen James \u2013 Publisher\nMaureen has been involved in the glass industry as a publisher since 1985 when she became cofounder and managing editor of Glass Patterns Quarterly. This quality, tutorial-based periodical has an international readership in over eighty countries. Maureen\u2019s desire to provide a vital business resource for glass professionals later led to the birth of Profitable Glass Quarterly and the subsequent ownership of Glass Art Magazine. In 2012, she was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Art Glass Suppliers Association. Maureen currently serves on the Board of Directors for the KBW Educational Foundation. Mrs. James is an active and voting member AGA, ISGB, GAS, and SGAA. She and her staff manage the demonstration stage that runs throughout the Glass Craft & Bead Expo each year in Las Vegas, Nevada. She has been influential in bringing glass education to the masses and is thrilled to be working with the various organizations serving in this capacity. 2013 saw the development of Glass Expert Webinars where glass experts share their techniques live on a global scale.\nJennifer Menzies \u2013 Editor\nJennifer and husband Wil released the first issue of The Flow in November 2001 at the Albuquerque Flame-Off and have embraced all forms of lampworking, including pipes, from the very beginning. Jennifer and Wil were dedicated to making The Flow a success but also needed to keep up with their glass business, which was more than a full-time job. They found it difficult to continue their publishing responsibilities alone and decided that it was time to enter into a partnership with Steven and Maureen James, who were already publishing Glass Patterns Quarterly and Profitable Glass Quarterly. Jennifer still makes flameworked glass art with Wil but also serves as editor of The Flow and makes the day-to-day decisions regarding which articles will be used and how they will appear, thus setting the course for the direction of the magazine. She also continues to establish and maintain relationships with the many glass artists who contribute to The Flow, making it a fabulous resource for the flameworking community.\nWilliam \u201cBoxfan\u201d Menzies \u2013 Founding Editor\nWil discovered glass in 1998 when he encountered Bob and Marie Snodgrass in Eugene, Oregon. He found his expression in the art of the marble, creating orbs of up to four inches in diameter. Wil\u2019s more recent work incorporates blown glass elements with sculpture, and he uses the incalmo technique of merging separate blown vessels with powders and Graal. He is ever passionate about flameworking and teaches workshops around the nation, including at the Eugene Glass School, as well as in his Texas studio. His work can be found in the collections of Dale Chihuly, the National Marble Museum, the Dallas Museum of Art, the Pepsi Corporation, and the Wal-Mart Corporation. As founding editor of The Flow, Wil sought, along with his wife Jennifer, for a way to provide a bond among members of the lampworking community. That has been accomplished by developing relationships with the finest artists and sharing their techniques with readers of The Flow through in-depth, step-by-step tutorials.\nDave Burnett \u2013Production Manager\nDave enjoys watching the issues of The Flow come together as he works on laying out articles, advertisements, and the various sections devoted to new products. He likes to stay one step ahead of the schedule to insure that we have materials that are adequate and on time. He keeps all of the stages of magazine production flowing before moving on to the website updates. He is also on the e-mail team and produces most of the images that you see on our website. Dave has a methodical approach to his work and with all the various formats that need to be delivered, he is able to do the same thing, the same way every time. Dave was part owner of an art gallery where he was involved in various art shows, and he designed and has constructed stained glass projects for Glass Patterns Quarterly. Everyone who works with Dave loves and appreciates his easygoing style and positive attitude, and his jovial nature is definitely a stress reducer in a deadline-oriented workplace.\nDidi Dahlsrud \u2013 Advertising Specialist\nDidi's immense energy, enthusiasm, and fresh ideas are an important benefit to The Flow. She knows many of the artists and encourages many of them to submit their new techniques in the form of tutorials to The Flow and Glass Patterns Quarterly. She is a relationship builder and strengthener, and her suggestion and intuitive pairing often benefit both parties. Didi has been in the glass industry for many years and has run her own business. Her entrepreneurial spirit allows our publication to reach out and think outside the box. You will often find Didi in the booth at one of the shows, and she is always engaged. Her knowledge of the flameworking industry and community make her an important part of The Flow team.\nKathy Gentry \u2013 Circulation Manager\nKathy has worked with the company since the inception of its sister publication, Glass Patterns Quarterly, and is the company's longest serving employee.

        "raw_content": "Imagination Library's success is real for thousands of kids\nCharity Tyler executive director of the Cedar Rapids Public Library Foundation explains how some books that are part of the Dolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library program are printed in Spanish as she shows some of the books at the foundation's offices in the Cedar Rapids Public Library's downtown location in southeast Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Wednesday, March 8, 2018. The program helps children build a love of reading and their personal libraries by mailing one book to their house each month from birth until they turn five years old. Children receive \"Look Out Kindergarten, Here I Come!\" on their fifth birthday. (Jim Slosiarek/The Gazette)\nCharity Tyler, guest columnist\nIt\u2019s been one year since Dolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library was introduced to our community, and since then, more than 40,000 books have been mailed to Cedar Rapids children.\nThe Cedar Rapids Public Library Foundation introduced this free book-gifting program in early 2018. Each month, Dolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library mails free, age-appropriate books to Cedar Rapids children ages 0 to 5, with the Library Foundation covering the costs of books and postage. This program is removing barriers to accessing books in the home.\nNewly published research reinforces that the number of books in the home has a strong influence on a child\u2019s academic performance. In short, children who grow up with books in their home achieve on average three more years of education than those who do not.\nToday, more than 4,400 Cedar Rapids children are enrolled and more than 450 have graduated from our Imagination Library. These children are our future workforce, teachers, elected officials, business owners, and community leaders.\nThe Library Foundation is thrilled with this progress and could not have achieved this success without the support of valued enrollment partners like Eastern Iowa Health Center, HACAP, Mercy Medical Center, and YPN.\nWhile the program is available for all families in Cedar Rapids, the Library Foundation began by partnering with nonprofits serving the most vulnerable members of our community. Working together, best practices around enrollment were established. These practices include meeting one-on-one with families to register children, holding the registration cards for Library pickup (rather than sending home with families to mail), and explaining to caregivers the importance of reading daily to their child.\nEnrollment partnership is not exclusive to nonprofit and human service organizations. Any local organization can become an enrollment partner, and will find that the partnership benefits its members or employees too. For realtors or recruiting firms, free, high-quality children\u2019s books are a sweet spot for young families considering relocation. For companies and Human Resources departments, Imagination Library is a treat to share with employees who might be expecting.\nImagination Library is available for all families living in Cedar Rapids, regardless of income. Ensuring all children have access to Imagination Library books creates a shared reading experience when these children enter their kindergarten classroom. While their new friends might have different backgrounds, they will have all received the same books from Dolly.\nDolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library is an important factor in efforts to improve children\u2019s early literacy scores and kindergarten readiness in Cedar Rapids. Other Imagination Library Affiliates report that their enrollees perform better on kindergarten literacy assessments than non-enrolled peers. Moreover, this data shows that these children also have stronger reading performance in both 2nd and 3rd grade compared to non-enrolled peers.\nLiteracy, access, and inclusion are our Library\u2019s new strategic priorities. Our Imagination Library is addressing all three by building early literacy skills of our youngest citizens, removing barriers to access books in the home, and ensuring all Cedar Rapids children, regardless of socioeconomic status, are enrolled in this program.\nOur first year of Dolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library has been educational and exciting. Thank you to all who have supported us as we give the gift of literacy to our children. I\u2019m hoping others will join in our Library Foundation\u2019s efforts in 2019. Here\u2019s to growing a new generation of readers and building a culture of literacy for our community.\nTo learn more about Dolly Parton\u2019s Imagination Library, visit www.crlibrary/imagination-library.

        "raw_content": "Go Here, Not There: 5 Underrated Cities In The USA For Conscious Travel\nBest Cities To Visit In The US\nNew York City. San Francisco. Los Angeles. Disneyland. These are the cities (or theme parks) that come to mind for most international travelers planning their first trip to the USA. And, to be fair, the iconic cities are known and loved for good reasons. They are wonderful places, full of vibrant culture and memorable sites. But they are not the only places to visit in the USA.\nA country taking up almost 3.8 million square miles (for comparison, it\u2019s roughly the same size as all of Europe), there is a lot more to see and do than party on the Vegas strip and visit the Statue of Liberty.\nWhether you\u2019re visiting the United States and want to avoid the \u2018tourist hot spots\u2019 or you\u2019re a local resident planning your next domestic getaway, here are the most underrated and overlooked destinations in the United States to visit.\nInstead of Las Vegas, Nevada\nKnown for its dazzling lights, glitzy resorts, and wild nightlife, Vegas is like NYC in that it\u2019s a city that never sleeps. Welcoming around 40 million tourists annually, the desert metropolis is a destination for bachelor and bachelorette parties, company conferences, and international tourists looking to see what all the fuss is about. And while it is true that there is nothing quite like Vegas, there\u2019s another American city stealing our attention\u2014and she\u2019s turning 300 this year.\nWhen most people think of New Orleans, commonly referred to as NOLA, two things come to mind: Mardi Gras and the tragic hurricane disaster in 2005. And while both are true to city\u2014New Orleans is synonymous with the infamous Carnival celebration and 80% of the city flooded during Hurricane Katrina\u2014this southern melting pot has a lot more going for it.\nTake the historic French Quarter for example, and lively Bourbon Street. New Orleans is also home to some of the greatest food in the United States, as well as jazz music and numerous cocktails. International tourists may also be surprised to learn sipping adult beverages in public is allowed in the city, similar to Vegas and many European destinations.\nNew Orleans is eager for visitors, especially as it celebrates its tricentennial birthday. According to staff at the Convention & Visitor Bureau, locals are also excited to show off their city. NOLA has even invested in a major airport expansions and offers nonstop flights between London and Louis Armstrong International Airport.\nWith only 11 million visitors in 2017, it\u2019s one of the most underrated American destinations for international and domestic travelers, although not for long\u2014The New York Times ranked it the number one place to visit in 2018.\n// Places To Go In New Orleans //\nRest | International House, The Clairborne Mansion\nSavor | Sweet Soulfood, Seed, N7\nExperience | The Whitney Plantation (the only plantation museum in the state focused on slavery), National World War II Museum\nInstead of New York City, New York\nIt\u2019s impossible to replicate a visit to the United States most iconic city, and we definitely hope every international and domestic traveler can visit the Big Apple at least once in their lifetime. Apart from Broadway shows, Times Square, and Central Park, New York City is loved for its diversity, culture, and thriving art scene. Sure, it\u2019s busy and loud at all hours of the day, but that\u2019s one of the things that makes it, well, New York City. Delicious food, buzzing markets, towering buildings, and taxis galore, it\u2019s truly a metropolis unlike any other. That\u2019s why more than 60 million tourists visit every year. So for travelers looking to experience a (much) less crowded and touristy side of New York, there is another city we\u2019d recommend: Buffalo.\nSituated near the Canadian border and on the crystal waters of Lake Eerie, the city of less than 300,000 people is unpretentious and welcoming as ever. You can walk into the corner tavern (open until 4 am) and make friends with the locals in minutes.\nHere, it\u2019s people, not buffalo, who roam\u2014sans iPhone, too. Slow living and gritty comfort food is the norm, and craft breweries are scattered along the water where locals like to relax together. Boasting Art Deco buildings and growing creative scene, it\u2019s also popular for artists. In fact, one of the city\u2019s favorite attractions, Silo City, is a historic grain complex that\u2019s been revived by the arts community and now serve as a venue for music, theatre, poetry readings, and more.\nWith few tourists and even fewer chain restaurants, Buffalo has an authentic and organic vibe\u2014the city doesn\u2019t try to be anything it\u2019s not. That\u2019s why, if you want to experience a different kind of New York, we recommend planning a visit to Buffalo. And do it soon: with Tesla opening a factory in the city and millennials moving in, the city is bound to grow (although we doubt the local charm will disappear anytime soon).\n// Places To Go In Buffalo //\nRest | Inn Buffalo, Oscar's Bed & Breakfast\nSavor | The Black Sheep, 100 Acres, Merge\nShop | Fred Handmade Wares, Westside Stories Bookstore, Fern + Arrow\nInstead of San Francisco, California\nOne of the most visited cities in the United States, San Francisco is a magnet for international and domestic tourists alike. With its cable cars, bubbling bowls of chowder, and charming row homes, what\u2019s not to love? While San Francisco is definitely a city we hope everyone gets the chance to experience, it\u2019s hard to ignore the fact that the city is also overcrowded and expensive\u2014in fact, it\u2019s the most expensive American city in which to reside.\nIt\u2019s being called the \u2018Brooklyn of the Bay\u2019 and, while Oakland doesn\u2019t have the iconic Golden Gate bridge or the salty smell of the San Francisco wharf, it does offer visitors warmer weather, more than 80 parks (as well as access to the Redwoods), and a thriving art scene. According to Visit Oakland, the city boasts more artists per capita than anywhere else in the United States; it\u2019s also one of the most diverse places in the country. More than 125 languages are spoken in Oakland, and visitors can enjoy food from all over the world, as well as frequent festivals and cultural events.\nMoreover, Oakland is easy to get to. With direct flights from major cities in Europe, the city is an accessible and more affordable travel destination than its overshadowing cousin. It may be nicknamed the \u201cbright side of the bay\u201d because of its sunnier weather, but we think Oakland is appealing for more reasons than escaping the San Francisco fog. Check it out for an alternative and down-to-earth California vacation.\n// Places To Go In Oakland //\nExperience | The Oakland Museum of California, This is Oakland Bike Tours, Wine Tasting at Minimo Wine\nSavor | Millennium, Donut Farm, Flora\nShop | Ali Golden, Atomic Garden, Marisa Mason\nInstead of Austin, Texas\nAustin, Texas is the second most visited city in America\u2019s southwestern region, just behind Las Vegas, Nevada. Loved for its live music, creative vibes, and young community, as well as being one of the cleanest and greenest cities in the United States, it\u2019s no surprise that this Texas gem is a favored destination for travelers. About 160 miles east though, Houston is overlooked and often skipped by both international and domestic tourists, even though it\u2019s the largest city in the state and the fourth largest city in the country. And that\u2019s a shame. While Houston doesn\u2019t tout the \u2018hip\u2019 label of Austin, the city is cool in its own right.\nWhile Austin might be trending, Houston is enchants visitors with its authentic Texas charm. The city also loves its art, as well as its music. Home to the likes of Beyonc\u00e9, Kenny Rogers, and Johnny Nash, there is no shortage of concert venues or live performances.\nIf you\u2019re searching for exceptional food, whether barbecue, tacos, or tastes from around the globe, Houston\u2019s got that too. The most ethnically diverse metropolis in the USA (yes, it\u2019s even more diverse than NYC and Los Angeles), the food scene in this gulf city is hard to beat. Other favorite attractions include the Space Center, Montrose neighborhood, and the museum district. So if you\u2019re headed to the Lone Star state this year, give Houston a shot. Tourist dollars and numbers are also incredibly useful to the city after Hurricane Harvey last fall.\n// Places To Go In Houston //\nRest | Sara's Inn, Hotel Ylem\nSavor | Relish, Velvet Taco, Baba Yega Cafe, Maharaja Bhog\nExperience | Walking Food Tours, The Jung Center, Tour Project Row Houses\n5. Stanley, Idaho\nInstead of Breckenridge, Colorado\nIf it\u2019s an iconic backcountry mountain experience you\u2019re after, you might be planning a trip to Utah or Colorado. Both states are wonderful and boast some of the most breathtaking wilderness in the United States, but they also attract the most tourists.\nTake Breckenridge, Colorado, for example. A popular ski town and summer destination for its rafting, fishing, and hiking adventures, it welcomes more than 3 million tourists each year. While that might seem like a insignificant number in comparison to the other cities on our list, the quaint mountain town is only home to around 5,000 residents. That dreamy escape from the city doesn\u2019t seem so peaceful now, does it? Instead of traveling to the most iconic mountain cities, opt instead for a place like Stanley, Idaho. A minuscule town where less than 100 people live, it\u2019s a lesser-known and equally breathtaking outdoor destination.\nStanley is located at the basin of the Sawtooth National Forest, about a three-hour scenic drive from Boise. A haven for all things camping, fishing, skiing, and rafting, it offers similar activities to those found in Breckenridge, as well as elsewhere in Colorado. And don\u2019t let the size of the town fool you! Charming hotels (including a tiny house resort) and local eateries with homemade dishes are ready to welcome visitors.\n// Places To Go In Stanley //\nRest | Meadow Creek Resort & Spa Tiny House Cabins\nSavor | Stanley Baking Co. & Cafe, The Sawtooth Hotel Restaurant\nExperience | Redfish Lake, Boat Box Hot Springs",

        "raw_content": "Prime Minister Gonsalves writes Barbados PM protesting \u2018Barbados-only\u2019 plan for CLICO policyholders\n( l to r ) Prime Minister Fruendel Stuart and\nPrime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves\nKINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, July 19, CMC \u2013 Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves has written to his Barbadian counterpart Prime Minister Freundel Stuart, over what he says has emerged as a \u201cBarbados-only\u201d plan for policyholders of the collapsed British-American Insurance Company Limited (BAICO).\n\u201cThe judicial manager in Barbados put forward a plan and I don\u2019t like the plan,\u201d Gonsalves told reporters, adding that he did not \u201cmince words\u201d in his five-page letter of June 25.\nGonsalves did not release the letter to the media but read sections, which, he said, would give insights.\n\u201cWe are aware that in its December 2014 report, the judicial manager of CLICO international Life insurance Company (CLICO) recommended to the Supreme Court of Barbados that there be a liquidation of the company. We are aware, too, that in the week of June 15th, 2015, there were two meetings in respect to the above-mentioned matter in an effort to avoid liquidation and arrive at a consent order and another on Wednesday the 24th of June 2015. All concerned appreciate that liquidation is a last resort.\n\u201cHowever, we wish to place on record the vigorous objection of the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union to the proposed Barbados-first plan which is now emerging as a Barbados-only plan,\u201d Gonsalves said.\nGonsalves, who is also Minister of Finance, told reporters that he has to defend the interest of the people of St. Vincent and the Grenadines and the policyholders of CLICO.\nNoting that he is also the person in the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU) with responsibility for BAICO and Colonial Life Insurance Company (CLICO), Gonsalves also said he has to defend the interest of policyholders in the ECCU.\n\u201cI explained in it the whole story. I am not going to release this letter yet. I am waiting to hear all the various objections to what was emerging as a Barbados-first plan to what is a Barbados-only plan,\u201d he said, adding that Minister of Finance in Bridgetown, Christopher Sinckler, has said this is not the case.\n\u201cWell, he can have a view, and I can have a view and we have to sort out where the interest of everybody resides.\u201d\nHe quoted the letter, saying, \u201cAs a minimum, an independent assessment of the proposal is critical. This should, among other matters, examine the risks and costs of the proposal to policyholders in the Currency Union. Appropriate government arrangements, transparency and collaboration must be established with compensation as necessary so that the interest of the Currency Union policyholders are properly considered in real-time and before key event occur that may be irreparable.\u201d\n\u201cThe reason why I say that they are saying some things which we could get down the road. I want it in real time\u2026\u201d Gonsalves said.\nHe told reporters that the letter also says \u201cthere should be interdependent assessment provided as to the division and management of CLICO\u2019s assets\u201d.\n\u201cAnd then I ended saying, \u2018We remain open to discussion on this matter in an effort to find a solution palatable to all concerned and are prepared to make representatives available to discuss the matter with Barbados Ministry of Finance and Financial Services Commission.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cSo I just want the people in CLICO to know we still at the wheel dealing with the matter,\u201d Gonsalves said.\nHe, however, said that realistically, he doesn\u2019t think that Port-of-Spain will disburse before the general elections in September anymore of the US$40 million that Trinidad and Tobago had agreed to give to help to resolve the matter.\n\u201cI am just saying that. But I am still pushing and hoping,\u201d he said.",

        "title": "Bush's New Nuclear Weapon Plan: A Shot at Nonproliferation | The Nation",
        "raw_content": "Bush\u2019s New Nuclear Weapon Plan: A Shot at Nonproliferation\nAfter George W. Bush's tough talk about the \"axis of evil\" unnerved allies--and forced the Administration to dispense assurances it was not about to go half...\nAfter George W. Bush\u2019s tough talk about the \u201caxis of evil\u201d unnerved allies\u2013and forced the Administration to dispense assurances it was not about to go halfcocked after Iran, Iraq and North Korea\u2013the White House has once again supplied the international community reason for the jitters, thanks to its new Nuclear Posture Review. The classified report, first revealed by The Los Angeles Times and then front-paged by The New York Times, is the Pentagon\u2019s master plan for developing and deploying nuclear weapons. The document, which lists contingencies in which nuclear arms might be used, notes that the United States might have to resort to nuclear weapons during \u201can Iraqi attack on Israel, or its neighbors, or a North Korean attack on South Korea or a military confrontation over the status of Taiwan.\u201d (The latter, of course, would be a confrontation with China.) The report also states, \u201cIran, Syria and Libya are among the countries that could be involved in immediate, potential or unexpected contingencies\u201d that would require \u201cnuclear strike capabilities,\u201d and it states that the United States could launch a nuclear assault to destroy stocks of weapons of mass destruction, such as biological and chemical arms.\nThe report certainly will not bolster Bush\u2019s image abroad, for it will cause people to wonder if\u2013shades of Ronald Reagan!\u2013this administration is planning for winnable nuclear wars against nations that do not possess nuclear weapons. This leak will also probably cause headaches for Vice President Dick Cheney when he travels to the Middle East this week. He\u2019ll want to talk war on terrorism, and the heads of state might be more interested in his ideas about targeting nuclear weapons in their neighborhood. The report is also the latest step in what seems to be a Bush administration campaign to undermine a key foundation of the international nuclear nonproliferation order.\nThe prospect of using\u2013or preparing to use\u2013nuclear weapons against nations that do not possess them has long been a delicate matter. Nobody expects the Pentagon not to plan for the horrific possibility of nuclear war with another nuclear-armed state. But since 1978 the United States has tried to reassure the world that (more or less) it would not launch nuclear weapons against a non-nuclear-weapon nation. The point of this declaration was to encourage non-nuclear states to sign and abide by the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT). Washington would have a difficult time pressing other nations to forego nuclear weapons, if it reserved the right to blast these countries with its own nuclear arsenal.\nThis US position\u2013known as \u201cnegative security assurances\u201d in arms-control parlance\u2013came with loopholes. Here\u2019s how Secretary of State Warren Christopher described it in 1995: the United States \u201cwill not use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear weapon states parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons except in case of an invasion or any other attack on the United States, its territories, its armed forces or other troops, its allies, or on a state towards which it has a security commitment, carried out or sustained by such a non-nuclear-weapon state in association or alliance with a nuclear-weapon state.\u201d That is, if a non-nuclear state that has signed the NPT finds itself in an armed conflict with the United States on its own (without being in league with a nuclear-weapon state), then the United States could not hurl nuclear bombs at it.\nNow for the rub: Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, and North Korea have each signed the NPT. Which means that in a mano-a-mano war against, say, Iraq, U.S. war-managers could not go nuclear.\nThis policy restriction has been a sore point for conservatives for years. Several weeks before the Nuclear Posture Review earned headlines, John Bolton, the undersecretary of state for arms control and international security, took a significant, but little-noticed, swipe at negative security assurances. In an interview with Arms Control Today magazine, Bolton, for years a right-wing opponent of many arms treaties, was asked if Warren Christopher\u2019s 1995 statement remained the policy of the Bush administration. Bolton replied, \u201cI don\u2019t think we\u2019re of the view that this kind of approach is necessarily the most productive.\u201d He noted that the administration\u2019s emphasis was not \u201con the rhetorical\u201d but on \u201cthe actual change in our military posture,\u201d which would be \u201cembodied in the outcome of the Nuclear Posture Review.\u201d\nThe interviewers from Arms Control Today pressed him, asking, \u201cSo, right now, the Bush administration would not make a commitment to non-nuclear-weapon states\u2026that it would not use nuclear weapons?\u201d Bolton answered: \u201cI don\u2019t think we have any intention of using nuclear weapons in circumstances that I can foresee in the days ahead of us. The point is that the kind of rhetorical approach that you are describing doesn\u2019t seem to me to be terribly helpful in analyzing what our security needs may be in the real world, and what we are doing, instead of chit-chatting is making changes in our force structures.\u201d (Making changes? You bet.)\nIn his responses, Bolton did not acknowledge the role of negative security assurances in the NPT process. It was as if he believed such statements were nothing more than conversational niceties. Which might be true from the perspective of other nations. But if these nations are going to be encouraged by such statements from Washington, then these declarations have great value.\nBolton is the Bush administration\u2019s key person\u2013its soul\u2013on arms control issues, and his remarks seemed to mark an abrupt turn-about in a long-standing policy on a highly sensitive topic. But the administration tried to dance its way out of the corner. Shortly after the interview, during the daily briefing of State Department spokesman Richard Boucher, a reporter asked Boucher to explain Bolton\u2019s comments and wondered, \u201cAre you now prepared to nuke un-nuked countries?\u201d Boucher claimed \u201cBolton was reiterating\u2026a policy that the United States government has had since the 1970s.\u201d This was exactly wrong. Bolton had dismissed that policy. Then Boucher repeated the statement that Christopher had issued in 1995. So policy reversed was unreversed.\nBut maybe not. Boucher added a caveat, noting that the U.S. \u201cwill do whatever is necessary to deter the use of weapons of mass destruction against the United States, its allies, and its interests.\u201d He asserted that \u201cthose kind of statements have been made repeatedly since the 1970s,\u201d and he quoted a 1996 remark from then-Defense Secretary William Perry, who said that if the United States was attacked by chemical weapons, \u201cwe could have a devastating response without the use of nuclear weapons, but we would not forswear that possibility.\u201d\nIn covering for Bolton and claiming nothing had changed, Boucher appeared to have stretched the weapons-of-mass-destruction loophole. He was not only saying, as Perry did, that nuclear weapons could be used in retaliation after a chemical weapons attack against the United States; he was warning that nuclear arms might be used preemptively to prevent such an attack. And that is indeed the policy contained in the new Nuclear Posture Review. If the United States has (or says it has) reason to believe a non-nuclear-weapon state is amassing biological weapons for use against the United States, then that country qualifies for the nuclear hit list.\nBolton, despite Boucher\u2019s spin, was indeed speaking for an administration that does not see merit in declaring we-won\u2019t-nuke-the-un-nuked in order to enhance nonproliferation efforts. As Bush\u2019s disregard of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty demonstrated, this crowd is drawn more to unilateral force decisions than to multilateral nonproliferation endeavors. The more worrisome portions of the Nuclear Posture review may only be what-ifs. But in nuclear diplomacy, what-ifs and words do count. The Bush administration\u2019s new weapon plan is a shot against the nations he has rhetorically targeted but also a strike against governments and diplomats that take nuclear nonproliferation seriously.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cHe was kind of the person who was at the forefront, absolutely dogged and committed in the very best way to the public good,\u201d said former Mayor Bill Baarsma, who worked with Vaughn to preserve the undeveloped land that became Wapato Hills Park near the Tacoma Mall.\nVaughn, a 1952 graduate of Lincoln High School, was a prominent activist and Tacoma Public Utilities Board member in the 1990s and early 2000s.\nHis lifeblood was South Tacoma and the city. He loved the city.\nHe is survived by his wife, Laura, their two children and four grandchildren.\nVaughn remained active in the South Tacoma Neighborhood Council, a group he founded, through last year. The city\u2019s website still lists him as the point of contact for the organization and he was a regular resource in its newsletters.\n\u201cHis lifeblood was South Tacoma and the city; he loved the city,\u201d said Stephen Fisher, an attorney who worked closely with Vaughn to preserve Wapato Hills and to launch the neighborhood council.\nIn 1989, Vaughn retired from a 37-year career at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and turned his attention to local politics.\nHis first fight centered on shrinking a proposal that would have brought 400 apartments to a 30-acre site in South Tacoma. He worried it was too big. The Air Force had concerns, too, because it would have been along a flight path to what was then McChord Air Force Base.\nVaughn\u2019s group of neighborhood activists won, persuading the City Council to choose a smaller project.\n\u201cWe helped change our neighborhood and protect our neighborhood,\u201d he told The News Tribune in 2000. \u201cIt was very satisfying.\u201d\nIn the early 1990s, Vaughn joined with Baarsma and Northeast Tacoma activist Marion Weed to write the ordinance that created official neighborhood councils, bestowing on them an advisory responsibility for city decisions.\nHis next campaign left a permanent legacy in South Tacoma. It was a five-year effort to preserve the open space known as Wapato Hills, which had long been eyed for development because of its proximity to the mall and Interstate 5.\nThis is my turf. This is my city.\nSkip Vaughn in a 2000 interview\nVaughn played in an important role in bring neighborhood groups in county with the city, parks district and Tacoma Public Utilities to protect the land.\nHe had grown up playing there, and he didn\u2019t want to see it turned into subdivisions.\n\u201cIt\u2019s an oasis,\u201d he once told The News Tribune.\nSecuring the property required a combination of state grants and local fund raising. When they looked just short of their goal, Skip and Linda Vaughn contributed more than $300,000 of their own money to finish the project.\nThe gift is one of the reasons a playfield in Wapato Hills is named after the couple.\nOver the years, the people who worked with Vaughn described him as an uplifting person who could bring people together. That\u2019s one of his legacies, too.\n\u201cWe owe Skip a great deal in terms of how he represented himself and his community,\u201d said Jack Wilson, the executive director of Metro Parks Tacoma. \u201cIt was always in a constructive, positive manner.\u201d\nA funeral service for Skip Vaughn will be at 2 p.m. Tuesday (April 5) at Mountain View Aspen Chapel, 4100 Steilacoom Blvd SW, Lakewood.",

Van Wagenen said that an injury in the major league outfield could open the door for Tebow's promotion.\n\u201cIf Tim Tebow is the best offensive player in Triple-A at that point, he\u2019s going to be in (manager Mickey Callaway's) lineup,\u201d Van Wagenen said on WFAN radio.\nVan Wagenen previously represented Tebow as the player's agent with CAA Baseball.\nTebow batted .273 with six homers and 36 RBI in 84 games in 2018 for Class AA Binghamton before an injury \u2013 a broken hamate bone in his right hand \u2013 required surgery and cut his season short in July.

        "raw_content": "Scottish museum showcasing Alliance World War I exhibit\nMalcolm Hall CantonRep.com staff writer @mhallREP\nThe World War History & Art Museum has set up one of its \"Brushes With War\" in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, Scotland.\nALLIANCE Going across the Atlantic Ocean, local museum and art exhibit curator Joel Parkinson has temporarily placed some of his collection in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Scotland.\nThe exhibit, titled \"Brushes With War,\" is a collection of 203 paintings and drawings created by troops from various nations while they were engaged in World War I.\nParkinson operates World War History & Art Museum, a traveling museum and art gallery that showcases relics from World War I and World War II. At one time, Parkinson's museum and art gallery was housed in the College Plaza in the 1300 block of E. State Street.\nNow \"we do traveling exhibits for other museums,\" Parkinson said.\nThis particular exhibit is timed to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the ending of World War I. An extremely bloody conflict, World War I started in 1914 and ended with an armistice on Nov. 11, 1918. The war began in Europe. World War I pitted about 15 nations comprising the Allied Powers against the four-nation pact known as Central Powers.\nThe Central Powers were the German Empire, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire (Turkey) and Bulgaria. In 1917, the United States entered the war on the side of the Allied Powers.\nMilitary casualties are estimated at 5.52 million for the Allied Powers and 4.38 million of the Central Powers. It ended as a victory for the Allied Powers.\nParkinson's Brushes With War opened in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in late September and is scheduled to close Jan. 6.\nFive-year effort\n\"The director of the museum and I have been working on it for almost five years,\" Parkinson said. \"They wanted it no matter what. But five years ago they scheduled it for this time basically so it would be for the centennial end of the war. This is the first time 'Brushes With War' has been at another museum other than ours. A lot of museums don't have the space for this.\"\nKelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, located in the city of Glasgow, is reputed to be among Scotland's most popular tourist attractions. Parkinson said he believes his exhibit of soldiers' art work is drawing well.\n\"I don't have exact numbers,\" he said. \"They have different school groups from Germany and France lined up. Part of what they are trying to do is bring Europe together, try to have a dialogue on how the war was started and what the war was about.\"\nAn attempt to contact an administrator with Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum by email was not successful.\nWarfare scenes\nThe sketches and paintings came from troops from both sides of the conflict. They illustrate scenes of warfare.\n\"These guys wanted to depict their experiences in the reality of it,\" Parkinson said. \"They are not copies, they are not prints. They are the original paintings and drawings. Most of them are water colors. Probably next would be pencil sketches and drawings; a few oils but not very many.\"\nThe soldiers often had idle time between battles and created art work to fill their days, Parkinson said.\nAcquiring the art work was a 15-year endeavor, recalled Parkinson.\n\"I don't want to discuss sources,\" he said. \"But it is all legally purchased.\"\nCurrently, there are no plans to transport \"Brushes With War\" to another museum after its run at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.\n\"For now it is coming back over here,\" Parkinson said.\nThe World War History & Art Museum left College Plaza in 2014.\n\"It was a great place, it was a nice facility,\" said R. Mark Locke, president of the Alliance Area Chamber of Commerce. \"But he wanted more people to see it. He thought if he took it on the road, a lot more people would see it.\"\nParkinson recalls his decision to leave a permanent location in College Plaza was in response to the moderate level of local interest in the World War History & Art Museum.\n\"Alliance just really wasn't a good market,\" Parkinson said.\"We had people coming in from all over the world. The overwhelming majority of our patrons were from out of state. We just repurposed it for traveling exhibits.\"\nReach Malcolm at 330-580-8305 or malcolm.hall@cantonrep.com\nOn Twitter: mhallREP",

To many visitors, Las Vegas is Nevada. In terms of population this is almost true. The large majority of the state\u2019s population lives in Clark County (Las Vegas) \u2014 almost 2-million people live in this small southern Nevada urban area. Reno is the only other major population center.\nThere is the real Nevada. It\u2019s a land of vast deserts (both hot desert and cold Great Basin desert). Over a hundred mountain ranges bisect the desert basins. Scenery is wonderful, although it is not the classical jagged glacier peaks and deep forest. Population density is very low. Best of all, almost 80% of the state is public land. You don\u2019t have to ask permission to use it.\nOn the other hand, it is not pristine land. Most of the land is grazed by cattle, although Nevada is regularly held up as an example of the poorest grazing land in America. Much of north central Nevada is being torn apart by vast gold mine pits that spew their poisonous mercury upon the residents of Utah and Idaho. The gold pits are late comers to an earlier era of mining that created towns like Searchlight, Nevada.\nSenator Harry Reid, majority leader of the United States Senate, grew up in grinding poverty in this defunct mining town. Having experienced poverty first hand, he has spent his life boosting the economy of the state. Unfortunately, it is an unsustainable economy based on the notion that artificial tourist attractions and housing developments can grow forever in the harsh desert sun by reaching out and grabbing water and power from every possible place.\nUntil the Great Depression, Las Vegas was a small city, serving as a necessary stopover on the way to Southern California. In the struggle to stay alive, Nevada and especially Las Vegas, lacking almost all the usual resources that maintain an economy, decided to capitalize on providing sin for puritanical America. Gambling, easy divorce at a time when divorce was very hard to obtain, easy marriage, and legal prostitution set the standards for the growth of this Sodom of the desert. With the invention of good air conditioning, real estate became a huge Nevada industry. Constant growth was needed just to stay in place economically.\nThe contradictions of Nevada have now fully emerged. Fifteen per cent unemployment in Nevada is the highest in the current great recession. Entire subdivisions in Las Vegas and satellites like Mesquite, Nevada, are boarded up. People are leaving Las Vegas.\nWhile many people are responsible for promoting the cancerous growth model of Las Vegas, beginning with mob figures associated with Benjamin \u201cBugsy\u201d Siegel, in recent years Harry Reid has kept growth alive with federal project after project. This small population state should have almost no political power nationwide, but Reid as a high ranking Democrat, and now Leader, has made Nevada\u2019s wishes important in Washington.\nIn times of great economic distress, people look for culprits. Nevada is not a sophisticated place. In fact, Las Vegas was just ranked as \u201cAmerica\u2019s \u2018dumbest\u2019 city.\u201d So it is hardly surprising thankless Nevadans have turned on Reid. It appears they will narrowly elect Tea Party Sharon Angle, wife of a government employee (BLM), on a crusading anti-government platform. She will be flanked by new governor Brian Sandoval (let the counties solve the state\u2019s budget problems!) and Senator John Ensign, a corporate tool, Bible-thumper, best known for his affair with his best friend\u2019s wife. The state will also probably elect 3 tea partying U.S. Representatives.\nThe state\u2019s collapse will continue, and with renewed vigor. Edward Abbey\u2019s skull will be smiling.\nTagged with: Harry Reid \u2022 Nevada \u2022 Sharon Angle\n29 Responses to Leaving Las Vegas: Will Sharon Angle turn out the lights?\nI hope Reid goes down. The man is rumored to be taking credit for halting both grazing and mining reform.\ngive Nevada 6 years of an empty, limp-noodle vote with Sharon Angle and see if the state can cycle something better next time.\nHave to disagree..As much as I dislike Harry on environmental issues, Angle is a nutcase, and these days, her vote could make a huge difference in repealing some things that should stay in place\u2026\nI\u2019m more worried about all the semi-dehydrated refugees from the Valley of the Sun ( Phoenix metro AZ ) heading back north to the cool wet verdant hills of Wyoming after climate change has evolved my semi-arid state into Eden, and turned central Arizona into an adobe baking oven.\nIf you drive out of Phoenix heading northwest on Highway 60 , they have curb and gutter and street signs all the way to the Maricopa County line , a grid awaiting development . Phoenix, population 4 million in summer and 5 million in winter, about 4-5X Las Vegas size, is planned out for 15 million.\nYikes! When I was a kid lived in metro Phoenix for a while. It was barely half a million.\nThere was an interesting article awhile back in High Country News about archeological digs finding ancient water canals that exactly paralleled the current system in Phoenix. Doesn\u2019t bode well since we know that site was abandoned for lack of water.\nI don\u2019t know which futurist it was, but this person predicted that large cities in the desert would be the source for the largest intranation migration since the Dust Bowl because of lack of water. Beware, folks in the East and Northwest\u2026\nAnyone know who will be the new majority leader should Angle defeat Reid and the Democrats maintain control of the Senate?\nmy guess is that in a shameless, emasculating effort to race right of the ever radicalizing Republican gestapo, the Democrats will blow a purple whistle, all chant \u201cbipartisan\u201d three times in unison, and reach across the aisle to appoint Mitch McConnel Senate Majority Leader.\nOtherwise, it\u2019ll likely be Charles Schumer, anticipated to be a marked improvement over Reid \u2013 for what that characterization is worth.\nThanks for the laugh, Brian!\nDoes Mitch McConnel remind anyone else of Ben Stein? I did note recently that, when asked about their priorities, McConnel admitted that the Republicans\u2019 top priority was ensuring Obama was not re-elected. Really? Not the economy? Not health care? Not jobs?\nThis is amazing. Who would really want to be President as the country fades into obscurity?\nMaybe the Chinese Government has promised the Republican leadership some important and well paid advisory jobs. \ud83d\udc7f\nLOL! In all seriousness, one sign that our system of politics is not working is that the politicians seem willing to work AGAINST the public interest when it conflicts with their own interests. Obama was on the Daily Show two a few nights ago and cited the unprecedented use of filibusters to stop any and all legislation and redistricting as two of the biggest problems in American politics.\nThey HATE McConnell\u2026it will be Schumer..he has a spine and cajones\u2026but don\u2019t expect alot of sympathy for Western issues. The man is a New Yorker thru and thru..\nI see the Las Vegas Sun linked to this article.\nMy thoughts too Ralph.\nIf they vote these clowns in, the people of Nevada deserve to continue on their downward spiral into uneducated serfdom, with no health care.\nYet, Nevada has sage grouse, pygmy rabbit, desert bighorn sheep, etc. on our federal lands\u2026not sure these can maintain viable populations for 6 long years of Republican efforts to dismember the ESA and other environmental protections.\nI agree. One step forward, two steps back will get us nowhere.\nI lived in Las Vegas for three years working on a couple of large construction projects. I knew and talked with quite a few prominant people in Las Vegas. I liked it for the first couple of years but grew to hate it. People are so cold blooded and morally corrupt there. The worst horror story is that a lady cop was directing traffic after an accident on the freeway when a car hit her. It was late night. Another car hit her and another car hit her for a total of six cars that hit her and carried her body 600 yds down the freeway. Not one of these cars stopped. They never did find parts of her body, including her arm. The body parts were presumably stuck in the undercarriage of the cars. Not one car stopped or even reported hitting her body even though at least one had to pull her arm out of his or her undercarriage.\nSome lady at work was collecting donations for taking a dog to the vet that kids had squirted with lighter fluid and lit on fire.\nI lived in a beautiful new apartment complex near the Sinrise Mountains. The complex had a beautiful pool with a breathtaking view of the city. Teenage kids would have sex in that pool or in the adjacent jacuzzi right in front of any adults. They hardly cared.\nMy company had a drug test policy. Whenever we hired someone, we typically had to test three before finding one that did not have traces of drugs in their blood.\nLas Vegas boomed because of low airfares. A third of their business was from Asia. I don\u2019t know if cheap airfairs will ever come back. Jet fuel prices are much higher.\nA third of Nevada is still run by the mafia. Another third is run by corporations. The last third is run by Mormons. Believe me, the Mormons are the good guys in Nevada. Harry Ried is a Mormon. His office was in one of the projects I worked on\u2026the new Lloyd D. George Federal Building in downtown Las Vegas. I do not know who Sharon Angle is connected to but she is not a Mormon and she scares me.\nPW, Stephen King used Las Vegas as the command post for the Walking Dude (aka the Devil or Satan) in his post-apocalyptic novel, The Stand. Intestingly, the center for the good guys was Boulder, CO.\nI commend The Stand to anyone who likes the horror genre, and wants an engrossing and terrifying read apropros for Halloween. May distract folks from our real life nightmare happening on Election Day.\nLas Vegas shouldn\u2019t even exist\u2026it is all about the water there, and eventually it will catch up with them, Phoenix, Tucson\u2026.\nAlls they need to do is pump Snake River water over or through the Hoback pass just south of Jackson Hole. From there it would flow into the Green River, a tributary to the Colorado River and the water source for Lake Mead. Las Vegas currently gets most of their water from Lake Mead.\nSo what is the problem with water again?\nStart with the concepts of Western water law being applied in a desert, laws which discourage conservation with their use it or lose it mandate.Oh yeah, those senior water rights can complicate things. Then, overallocation of virtually all of the rivers in the West\u2026you can\u2019t pretend water is some ACME package from Wily. E.. Coyote that you can put a drop of water on to create a lake. Add in the tremendous population growth and development in the West over the last 20 years with little thought given, for the most part, about where the water will come from and who will suffer.There is little thing called DROUGHT that is plaguing the West these days\u2026\nBTW, Lake Mead is down to an all time historic low\u2026Just thought I would mention it.\nTwo books\u2026Cadillac Desert by Mark Reisner, and Unquenchable by Robert Glennon\u2026highly recommend for anyone who is interested in water use and water development.\nThere is also \u2018Dead Pool: Lake Powell, Global Warming, and the Future of Water in the West\u2019 by James Lawrence Powell. It was written just last year (2009) and in it, Powell said there is a 50% chance that Lake Mead will be down to the dead pool (the part of a reservior that cannot be drained) by 2017 to 2021.\nYou missed my point. My point is that the casino owners have money and power to buy politicians and they may start taking water from the Northwest\u2026particulary Idaho.\nIf you are interested, I will tell you the story of how Sheldon Adelson (owner of the Venetian and one of the richest men in the USA) manipulated Congress to screw the City of Las Vegas and make additional money for the Venitian. I was personally involved in this.\nMore on Las Vegas and the Reid-Angle, hold your nose and vote choice. Foreclosure capital of the US.\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/30/us/politics/30nevada.html?_r=1&nl=&emc=a1\nSharon Angle Warns that Violent of \u2018Revolution\u2019 Against Obama an \u2018Option\u2019\nhttp://chattahbox.com/us/2010/10/22/tea-party-candidate-warns-violent-revolution-against-obama-an-option/\nIt is easy for me to understand why Tea Partier Sharon Angle is doing so well in Nevada\u2026every biker, every whore, every ex-con, every drug addict, every gold digging slut, every drunk, every gangster, every grifter, and, in general, every angry, hostile, antisocial misfit in Las Vegas is going t vote for her. She is thier dream candidate!\nMy son and his wife live in Las Vegas and I take offense at the generalizations you make about the voters of Las Vegas. Just like in Los Angeles where you evidently reside, the people of Las Vegas are trying to survive and they have been hit very hard by the economic downturn. Please keep your generalizations to yourself! By the way, they have already voted for Harry Reid and you need to check your spelling.\nThe murder rate in Las Vegas is 55% higher than the national average.\nThe robbery rate is 52% higher than the national average.\nCar theft is 106% higher than the national average.\n\u2026and I\u2019ve heard that the Las Vegas Police Department fudges these numbers to keep these statistics looking lower than they actually are so as not to scare the tourists. If there is not clear evidence of foul play, for example, a dead body will be ruled as a suicide rather than a murder and very few murder cases are solved.\nLas Vegas has, by far, the highest suicide rate in the US.\nReno has the highest alcoholism rate in the world. Las Vegas is one of the highest in the US.\nLas Vegas has the highest per capita of \u201cAdult Entertainers\u201d in the US.\nGambling is perfect legal and there are slot machines in local grocery stores near schools.\nProstitution is perfectly legal in many counties in Nevada and while technically illegal in Las Vegas, is rampant throughout the city. There are pamphlets and fliers for prostitutes all over Las Vegas with pornographic images and when the desert wind storms come (and they come often), this pornography is blown all over the city including into school playgrounds and church yards. After a wind storm, it is hard to walk a block without seeing pornography somewhere on the ground.\nThese are statistics and facts and from them I think it is fair to make some generalizations. I lived in Las Vegas for three years and have lived in many cities in the West. Las Vegas is by far the most morally corrupt place I have lived. Certainly, there are good people there. But there are many mean, nasty, antisocial people there too, many more, by far, than anywhere else I have lived. I was relieved to get out.\nI\u2019ve been to Nevada many times for work, to screw around, and to visit friends who have lived and worked there. I agree with most of your comments regarding the state.\nA good friend of mine from high school worked down there on multiple hotel projects as a manager for company that specializes mostly in glass work. He has told me many stories highlighting the corruption of Las Vegas. The stories were fascinating to me because I would not have believed that corruption could be so prevalent there had I not heard about it first-hand. I wish I could hear more of yours.\nAnother friend just got back about a week ago from a roping down in Winnemucca. I heard mostly about $12 half gallons of R&R whiskey and an abundance of whores in the general area.\nA girl I knew from high school moved to Vegas to escort. She claimed that the money was incredible. She said many girls will head there a few days per week to either work as strippers, escorts, or both.\nI only mention this crap because that is the Nevada I have come to know over the years. dozens of stories about theft, prostitution, fights, manipulation, exploitation, corruption, substance abuse, etc\u2026\u2026\nNevada deserves Sharron Angle. My sympathies do however go out to the honest people there who are trapped in the middle of all the madness.\nGeese!\u2026while in Las Vegas, you are not in Kansas anymore Toto! Oscar Goodman, the Mayor of Las Vegas, who has been Mayor since 1999, was a defence attorney for the Mafia. Don\u2019t beleive me. It\u2019s in wikipedia\u2026\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Goodman\nEveryone in Las Vegas knows Oscar was the mob\u2019s lawyer\u2026it\u2019s why they love him.\nThat Anthony \u201cTony the Ant\u201d Spilotro mentioned in the wiki article that Oscar defended, I happen to know some things about. I had a girlfriend in Las Vegas who knew his widow and was, in fact, a pretty good friend. For fun, she would call her up with me listening on the phone and would ask her questions about the good ol\u2019 days with Tony.\nYou might be interested to know that she said both Frank Sinatra and Ronald Reagan had strong ties with the Mafia. It is well known that both Frank Sinatra and Paul Laxalt (governor of Nevada) were the big early supporters of Reagan and it was Reagan that deregulated federal laws keeping corporations out of the casino business. It was Reagan who transformed Las Vegas by allowing corporations into the gambling business where they began building the large themed mega-casinos that dominate the strip today.\nI say that having these tea partiers elected and having them rant and make themselves look crazy for two years (as long as the dems dont lose the senate majority) can only help the democrat party in 2012.\nThat is exactly what was said of the NAZI\u2019s in 1928.\nWhat if the economy collapses in the next couple of years as it did in the 30\u2019s. Paul Krugman is saying that with the Republicans taking control of Congress, the prospect of an economic collapse is looming.\nBeen a lot of years since, as a kid, I saw Hoover Dam. And, in the mid 70s, I had occasion to fly as a passenger in a four-seat Cessna from Gooding, Idaho, to Jackpot Nevada in time for the evening buffet at a casino house there. I don\u2019t recall an details of the trip, but do remember the big open spaces below the aircraft as we flew over the south-central Idaho landscape. Hope it\u2019s still there.",

It\u2019s also a time when parents start to think about preparing their child\u2019s transition to high school especially if you\u2019re a parent considering an alternative high school to Timberlane.\nIn the event you are considering alternative high school options, I would like to request that you share with me the reasons or drivers which have brought you to this decision as it is essential we understand where parents feel our high school falls short. This will also allow us an opportunity to identify and address those areas and meet the educational needs of our district families.\nIn the meantime, I\u2019d like to take this opportunity to share how excited I am about the future of the Timberlane Regional High School and the initiatives now in place as well as the ones in the pipeline. Freshman Academy is in full swing and the School Board has just authorized improvements to the Academic Deans\u2019 leadership team. These improvements to the Deans\u2019 leadership team will assist the team in providing better support to the instructional staff and increase the rigor and accountability in each classroom. The Program of Study offerings at the high school are also impressive as they continue to raise the bar. These, coupled with our excellent athletic and arts opportunities, are important components in our determination to lead the learning in southern New Hampshire.\nI am very interested in hearing your thoughts about our high school program and why you might be considering an alternative high school. I offer a couple of options in which to share this information with me. You may email me directly at earl.metzler @ timberlane.net , or call my office at 382-6119 ext. 2217 to schedule an appointment.\nI appreciate any and all input from the primary stakeholders of our school district \u2013 our parents.

        "raw_content": "New Brighton man charged with stealing copper from nuclear plant property\nSHIPPINGPORT \ufffd A hole in a fence allowed a New Brighton man to steal more than 1,400 pounds of copper since January from a building within the shadow of a nuclear reactor, authorities said Friday.\nJoseph R. Plum Jr., 35, of 1402 Fifth Ave., Apartment 303, has been charged with theft, receiving stolen property, defiant trespassing and criminal conspiracy to commit theft, receiving stolen property and defiant trespassing. He is free on $5,000 unsecured bond.\nPlum, a former contractor at the Beaver Valley Nuclear Power Station, has been charged with stealing more than 1,400 pounds of copper over four months from a building outside the \ufffdprotected zone\ufffd on the Shippingport plant\ufffds property.\nHe then is accused of using his mother to sell the copper to a Conway scrap yard for money.\nConway police became aware of the situation on April 16 when they were contacted by the Metalico Inc. scrap yard on Crows Run Road about a woman who had been turning in a large amount of industrial-grade copper they believed might be stolen.\nWith the cooperation of the scrap yard, police recovered three spools of copper and records that showed Darlene Johnson, 56, of 901 Ninth St., Apartment 1204, New Brighton, had turned in a total of 1,456 pounds of copper over 14 different occasions, receiving $4,230 in cash.\nJohnson has been charged with theft, receiving stolen property, defiant trespassing and conspiracy. She also is free on $5,000 unsecured bond.\nWhen officers confronted Johnson, she told them her son, Plum, had given her the copper, according to the police report.\nPolice said Plum confessed to using a hole in a fence to access Beaver Valley Nuclear Plant Construction Building No. 2 on multiple occasions and steal copper, which he then stored on his property. Plum told police he gave his mother small amounts of copper at a time and instructed her to scrap it for cash, which they shared.\nJennifer Young, a spokeswoman for Akron-based FirstEnergy Corp., the owner of the nuclear power station, said the building that Plum accessed is near the electrical switch yard outside the heavy security area, so it is not watched as closely as the areas around the two reactors. However, police reported the site is posted as no trespassing and no public access.\nYoung said the building is used to store construction materials and items being held for disposal.\nThe police report does not indicate whether Plum was the one who made the hole in the fence or if it already was there. It also was unclear whether any copper remained at his home at the time of his arrest.\nYoung confirmed Friday that Plum did work as a contractor who performed work there. But she was unable to determine who he worked for and what his task was.\nYoung said she was able to confirm Plum had not worked there for at least a month. She was not sure if plant officials knew about the thefts before they were discovered by Conway police.\nYoung said the incident is not reportable to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which oversees the nation\ufffds 104 commercial nuclear reactors, because \ufffdthere was no impact on plant safety or operations.\ufffd\nPlum and Johnson are scheduled for preliminary hearings on Thursday.\nAccording to online court records, Plum served one year probation after pleading guilty on Dec. 12, 2005, to receiving stolen property and loitering/prowling at night in connection with two Beaver Falls burglary incidents earlier that year.",

        "title": "Timur Akhmetov: Operation Olive Branch in Afrin and Turkish diplomacy",
        "raw_content": "With the Afrin canton in northern Syria under the control of the Turkish army and its administrative center successfully taken, Ankara\u2019s counter-terrorist military operation, \u201cOlive Branch\u201d, is about to reach its objectives. Since its commencement on January 20, the Turkish border operation has been pursuing several objectives; primary among them is clearing the Afrin region of the PYD armed groups who pose a direct threat to Turkey\u2019s national security due to their connection to the Turkey-based terrorist organization Kurdistan Workers\u2019 Party (PKK, Kurdish: Partiya Karker\u00ean Kurdistan\u00ea).\nDespite its efforts to explain to the international community the underlying motives behind the deployment of troops on Syrian soil, the Turkish government has not received messages of solidarity, either from its Western partners, or from regional players. On March 11, Turkish President Recep Erdogan slammed NATO over its lack of support for the military operation in Afrin, despite the fact that Turkey is a member state of the Alliance whose security is challenged by an international terrorist organization. An unnamed NATO headquarters official, in an interview with the Russian RIA news agency, responded to Erdogan\u2019s criticism by saying that NATO acknowledges Turkey\u2019s legitimate concerns over its national security in Afrin, but the organization cannot participate in the the ongoing operation due to the absence of legitimate reasons for its presence in Syria.\nTurkey\u2019s resentment is also directed at the European Union. On March 15, the European Parliament issued a non-binding resolution condemning the Afrin operation and calling upon Turkey to remove its troops from Syria and instead focus on the fight against \u201cthe U.N.-listed terrorist organizations\u201d, suggesting that the PYD-affiliated armed groups in Afrin are not a legitimate target. The EP resolution was criticized by the Turkish EU Affairs Minister Omer Celik, who described the document as the most visionless decision the European Parliament has made in recent years, and the call for Turkey to withdraw its troops as \u201cclear support for terrorist organizations\u201d. Ankara\u2019s official stance on the move was further elaborated by a Turkish Foreign Ministry statement saying that it is impossible for Ankara to comprehend the resolution of the European Parliament, \u201cwho has a well-known history of tolerance towards terrorist organizations\u201d.\nThe reaction of the Western community and of Turkey\u2019s most-valued long-term security and military partners reveals only a part of the reality. Even though the Turkish military operation \u201cOlive Branch\u201d has so far been successful in fighting the PYD-affiliated armed groups in Afrin, the inadequate support of Turkish allies and the broader international community for the operation may point to serious risks for Turkish foreign policy in the region. Turkey\u2019s fight against the terrorist organization PKK has long been internationalized, with the political setting and conditions in both Turkey\u2019s geographical proximity and Europe having considerable influence on the pace and track of Ankara\u2019s anti-PKK efforts.\nAnalysis of Turkish diplomatic efforts reveals inadequate policy with regards to propaganda and coverage of the military operation. One major risk for Turkish national security lies in the fact that the Turkish government failed to influence international opinion on the scope of the threat posed by the PKK/PYD before the operation, failed to influence it during the operation and, it seems, will have to continue to wage its anti-terrorism efforts in highly unfavorable international conditions.\nDespite numerous efforts by the Turkish government to explain its concerns over the threats PYD/PKK represent for Turkish national security, Ankara\u2019s western partners and international players showed little support for the military operation in Afrin. On January 25, US President Donald Trump's homeland security adviser Tom Bossert stated that Washington would prefer Turkey to abstain from direct intrusion in Syria and instead focus on \u201clong-term strategic goals\u201d like ending Syria\u2019s war. The major U.S. concern, allegedly, was that deeper Turkish involvement against Kurdish-controlled elements would spoil the power balance and risk major escalation with the participation of U.S. troops.\nIn late February, French officials, in several separate initiatives, called on the Turkishgovernment to respect UN Security Council resolution 2401 on the Syrian ceasefire, spare civilian lives in Afrin and ensure the supply of humanitarian aid to the region. On February 26, in a phone conversation with his Turkish counterpart, Emmanuel Macron stressed that the ceasefire covered all Syrian territory, including Afrin, and must be put into effect everywhere and by everyone without delay, implying that the PYD shouldn\u2019t be targeted by Turkish forces.\nOn the level of public diplomacy, governmental efforts to clarify the official position and bring the Turkish narrative to the broader international community seem to have failed. The primary reason behind this misfortune is domestic politics, where the Turkish government, through its own actions, contributes to the main theses of the critics of the Olive Branch operation in Afrin. Of particular importance in this context is the use of Ottoman and Islamic narratives in the Turkish media. In the absence of Western journalists in Turkey, and with wide-spread biases around the world, such messages reinforced negative coverage of the military operation. Moreover, the arrests of Kurdish activists and harassment of Kurdish politicians contributed to the narrative that the operation is directed not at the PKK elements in Afrin, but at the Kurdish population per se. In a number of statements, Turkish officials resorted to anti-Western whataboutismwithout providing objective clarification on the military and defensive necessity of the operation.\nLabels: Erdogan, PKK, Propaganda, PYD, Rojava, Syria, Turkey",

        "raw_content": "FIFA 18 vs PES 2018 comparison have always been something very difficult to do. The series both these games originated from is great. The very famous \u2018EA Sports\u2019 has officially announced recently that FIFA 18 is going to be released on September 29, 2017. It will be released worldwide on that Friday. EA has recently been promoting its new features with all sorts of advertisements. Lately, EA\u2019s promotional activities hit its peak. Promotion on TV and websites are going on at a high rate to build the buzz for the game.\nEvery football lover knows about FIFA games but there is another game with people talks about. And that is PES. With the announcement of the release date of FIFA 18, PES 2018 is also releasing gameplay glimpse. The impressiveness of the PES series reached to a height that it can now beat the long renowned FIFA series.\nFIFA 18 vs PES 2018 Comparison\nThe trailers of both the game have finally released and it is time for us to release FIFA 18 vs PES 2018 Comparison. The fact is that, as we all know, the games have not yet been released. This is the reason why the trailer is the only sneak peak for us at this point in time.\nFIFA 18 has focused on many different game modes in the game itself. The different game modes featured in the FIFA 18 are \u201cJourney\u201d, \u201cUltimate Team\u201d, \u201cSeasons\u201d, \u201cBe A Pro\u201d etc. The trailer suggests us that there is an improvement in the gameplay but not much. We can\u2019t call it a radical change but a slight improvement.\nOn the other hand, PES 18 has improved too much with their version. PES 18 comes with improved graphics and improved gameplay. The graphics have obviously improved but the gameplay change it underwent is massive. PES 18 totally focuses on turning the game more like reality. From the face definitions to the football\u2019s dimensions, everything seems so real. This clearly proves that PES has worked very hard on this game.\nLooking at both the games, we can conclude that FIFA 18 is more glamorous than PES 2018. The whole list of features which FIFA 18 presents to us is totally something which is going to take us through the year. FIFA 18\u2019s different and special game modes are what makes it so special and makes it playable all year.\nPES 2018, on the other hand, is completely focusing on gameplay to give the best experience to the players. Moving back to its roots, it is trying to present to us the most real and purest football gaming experience.\nHowever, despite critical acclaims, FIFA has always been a better selling game than PES. \u201cPES 2017 is probably the best football game ever\u201d, said many critics, yet FIFA 17 sold more in the market. This is completely because of the goodwill and brand value of FIFA. But after last year, people know that PES is a better series after the critical acclaims. This might change the football games\u2019 course completely and make PES 2018 the better selling football game. So, the prediction and pre-release FIFA 18 vs PES 2018 comparison concludes that PES 2018 is going to be a better game.",

        "raw_content": "Sabine River \u2013 Newton County \u2013 Texas\nThe Sabine River continues to be of importance. From before Newton County became an independent county, the river has controlled a part of its destiny.\nIn the fall of 1843 the steamboat Sabine, with Capt. John Clemmons at the helm, made the first trip on the Sabine River. Being a sturdy craft, she made several trips up and down the river successfully.\n\u201cOften the steamboats were small compared to present-day standards, which ran on the East Texas Rivers were not new having been bought from the Mississippi trade where five years was the usual life of a boat. There competition was keen and the traffic rough on the boats. Transportation on the Mississippi was big business and the owners could afford the best. These secondhand boats, when kept in repair might have many good years left in them when run on smaller rivers.\nAbout 1858, a steamboat bearing the name of Biloxi came up the Sabine from Biloxi, Mississippi, and unloaded several dozen slaves. The landing where they unloaded became known as Biloxi. For awhile it prospered. Then it became a ghost town and vanished, as many of the river towns did when the railroads came and the steamboat era ended.\nThe Attacapa Indians were the first to probe the backwaters and sloughs of the Sabine and the Neches-Angelina, in their swift pirogues for no one knows how long. Then exploring LaSalle and the Spaniards came, and in the year 1817 Jean Lafitte, the notorious pirate, anchored his ships in the harbor at Anahuac and made Galveston a rendezvous for his pirate crew. They then proceeded to establish a slave colony of Shackle foot far up the Sabine, a slave station at the mouth of the river, and a slave plantation on the Brazos\nThe romance of the Sabine River began with great effort of people to make a living.",

Most of the world\u2019s important caves occur in limestone, but Table Mountain is unique in that it has many large sandstone cave systems, another feature of the mountain making it worth a visit on your trip to Cape Town.\nFor a taste of Cape Town\u2019s history, visit the Castle of Good Hope. Built between 1666 and 1679 by the Dutch East India Company, the castle is the oldest surviving building in South Africa and the first site in the country to garner the title as a historic monument. It is now considered a provincial heritage site, and the elaborate restorations that took place in the 1980\u2019s make the Castle of Good Hope the best preserved example of a Dutch East India Company Fort. Take a tour of the elaborate grounds, or visit the Castle Military Museum located on the property.\nIt would not be a trip to Cape Town without visiting Groot Constantia, South Africa\u2019s oldest wine-producing estate; it was founded in 1685. Take a wine tour and learn how one man\u2019s love of wine established the first wine farm in South Africa, and how even through changes of ownership the estate\u2019s legacy continued to deepen. Groot Constantia is highly regarded for their red wines, so do not miss out on the chance to try one right from the source. For a historic (and delicious) experience, Groot Constantia is the answer. Vergelegen Wine Estate is another renowned winery found in Cape Town not to be missed on a visit to the South African city. Through over 300 years of different world class ownership, this winery has been shaped into one of the most exquisite estates. Beautiful gardens, wonderful cuisine, and of course its world renowned wine are just a few of the reasons Vergelegen Wine Estates is cherished by visitors seeking a sensory experience unlike any other. Partaking in a wine tasting, exploring the wine cellar, and touring the gardens are just a few of the myriad of activities found at the estate.\nSituated in South Africa\u2019s oldest harbor you will find the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront: a hub containing residences, storefronts, restaurants, and more. Grab a bite to eat and take in the views of the harbor, or do some shopping at the array of stores located within the district. The fortification of Chavonnes Battery is located in the Waterfront, now housing a museum highlighting some of the structures, artifacts, and history of the building. The Two Oceans Aquarium is another great way to spend an afternoon on the Waterfront. One of the most alluring features of this aquarium is its location, as it is situated where the Indian and Atlantic ocean meet. Containing 7 exhibition galleries, Two Oceans Aquarium is fun for the whole family. View turtles, various fish, rays, and even penguins at this aquarium. Another historic area of Cape Town to visit is Bo-Kaap. This historical center of Cape Malay is known for its brightly colored homes, cobblestone streets, and blend of cultures. To learn more about the culture of the area, visit the Bo-Kaap Museum. There you can learn about the cultural contributions of the early Muslim settlers, and explore what their day to day life was like through photographs and exhibits.\nCape Town is an incredible city, with culture and activities perfect for visitors from all over the globe. Thanks to South African Airways, a trip to Cape Town is easier than you could imagine!\nPosted in Outposts | No Comments \u00bb\nShare your thoughts on \u201cCulture in Cape Town with South African Airways\u201d",

You love reading and writing and I know you\u2019ll try so hard to please your teacher. You\u2019ve always been independent (and feisty!) and starting school will allow to use this independence to achieve great things. You\u2019re a bit (ok, a lot!) of a performer and like to entertain and do shows, so I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll soon be entertaining your little class mates and making lots of new friends.

Then we found Benahavis\u2026 Benahavis is in the Marbella region of the Costa Del Sol. A little village set in the mountains, about 15 minutes from the glam resort of Puerto Banus.

The staff are brilliant and really go the extra mile to help the children and parents make amazing memories. The annual nativity, easter bonnet parade and summer show are all lovely events that we\u2019ve always enjoyed attending. And tomorrow we say our final goodbye.

For the past few weeks he has been anxious and stressed about taking the exams and it makes me so cross that seven year-olds are put through this completely unnecessary stress.

In fact, I\u2019ve told him that the only exams that are important are his GCSEs, which he\u2019ll take when he is 16! Until that point exam stress should not even be part of his life.

        "raw_content": "Viva La Vida by Coldplay: Lyrics with Guitar Chords (Easy Version)\nColdplay\u2019s Viva La Vida is the second most successful song from the band, just after Paradise. This song was featured on their 4th studio album titled Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends and it is probably the kind of song that you want to add to your guitar repertoire.\nYou can learn to play the complete Viva La Vida song with guitar chords, lyrics and a strumming trainer directly in the Uberchord app.\nIn an age where music doesn\u2019t enjoy as much commercial success as it did before the internet, this single has managed to sell an impressive 7 million copies worldwide. Guitar geeks will know how the song got Coldplay into a feud with famed virtuoso Joe Satriani, due to the similarities between Viva La Vida and \u201cIf I could fly\u201d by Joe Satriani. The controversy made people question whether there is absolute originality in music, as the melody in the chorus of Viva La Vida sounds very similar to the main theme of Satriani\u2019s track. Here is a comparison video from YouTube.\nThe song features a syncopated rhythm on synthesized cello against a steady 4/4 beat, as well as a string background and synth pads to create a soothing atmosphere. The sonic textures most likely influenced the sound of later British acts such as Bastille.\nKey of the Song: F minor\nThe key for Viva la Vida is F minor, which to my knowledge is rather uncommon in pop music. This is a great opportunity to get acquainted with a key in which you\u2019re likely to use lots of barre chords. Although you can always make use of a capo.\nCommon chord progressions in the key of F minor are:\nFm \u2013 Db \u2013 Eb\nThe chord progression for most of the song is basically a IV \u2013 V \u2013 I \u2013 vi in the Key of Ab major.\nViva La Vida Chords\nThis song requires either a solid bar chord technique or a capo. In case you wish to learn more about capos check out our post on All You Need to Know About Guitar Capos. You may use a capo on the first fret to fret the following chords:\nC, D, G, E minor, B minor\nOtherwise, you\u2019re stuck with:\nDb Eb Ab Fmin\nThere is a part where you alternate back and forth between Dbmaj and Fminor, with a Ebmaj thrown in there.\nViva La Vida \u2013 Video Lesson\nThis is the most comprehensive tutorial I found:\nViva La Vida \u2013 Chords & Lyrics\nC-D-G-Em\nG                           Em\nC - D - G - Em\nOhhhhh Ohhh Ohhh\nI know Saint Peter will call my name ,\nand fading.\nThinking About You by Norah Jones | Lyrics with Guitar Chords",

        "raw_content": "Booker Prize Betting 2017\nAs we already know from our frequent forays into the novelty betting markets, there is very little that you can\u2019t stake on these days. Betting on the Booker Prize may not be the most obvious option to take but it is very popular and there are some very good reasons for that.\nIf you\u2019re new to this market then naturally it will help to fully understand the Booker Prize and what it involves. Officially, the award is known as the Man Booker Prize for Fiction and it is awarded to the best fictional work in each year.\nThere are two main stipulations with the award: The book has to be written in English and published in the UK. It was first handed out in 1969 and over nearly 50 years there have been some notable winners including Iris Murdoch, Salman Rushdie, Kingsley Amis and Roddy Doyle. 2016\u2019s winner was Paul Beatty with The Sellout which was a satirical novel and this is a category that rarely comes home with the trophy.\nJudging takes place ahead of the official ceremony which is held at the beginning of October so who is in the frame for this year\u2019s award?\nAhead of the ceremony the judges pick a shortlist of six books so there are fewer options to choose from in the outright win market. It\u2019s also worth noting that while most bookmakers are happy to get behind novelty markets, there is a much smaller selection for the Booker Prize in 2017.\nOf those that have declared prices so far, the favourite is Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders which comes in at best odds of 2/1 with EnergyBet and Ladbrokes. Amongst the many positive reviews that this novel has received, the Guardian describe it as an extraordinary story of the Afterlife.\nIncredibly, this is Saunders\u2019 first novel and it\u2019s already on many Amazon wish lists for Christmas 2017.\nWhile the bookies have made their collective minds up as far as the favourite is concerned, no-one is entirely sure who should follow. Some have joint second favourites but all the bookmakers who have declared markets suggest it\u2019s a close run thing between the following two:\nA quick look at the betting right now shows Elmet on offer at a top price of 6/1 and Elmet at best odds of 11/2. Both of those prices are with Paddy Power and if you think they have a chance of challenging the favourite, how do you split them?\nReviews from all the literary columnists can\u2019t seem to split these two novels either with gushing praise being bestowed on both. At a rather more basic level, Exit West has marginally more 5 Star Reviews on Amazon than its rival but that\u2019s not an indicator that the judges will look for.\nCompleting the Market\nThree books remain on the short list for this year\u2019s Man Booker Prize and they are as follows:\n4321 by Paul Aster: 8/1 with Paddy Power\nAutumn by Ali Smith: 11/2 with EnergyBet\nHistory of Wolves by Emily Fridlund: 10/1 with Paddy Power\nFrom those figures you would feel that History of Wolves is the rank outsider in this market but other operators such as Ladbrokes have the six books priced very closely together. Looking at Paddy Power\u2019s prices, which are usually very good indicators in any market, there are clear divisions so perhaps we can exclude History of Wolves and 4321 from our thoughts.\nAs you may imagine, this isn\u2019t a market that offers a lot of scope in the way of side betting so really it\u2019s all about picking the winning book. The bookmakers have their favourite but will Lincoln in the Bardo get over the line or is there a genuine challenge in the chasing pack?\nThe list of previous winners is free to browse and it may just be possible to identify a trend. Last year\u2019s winner by Paul Beatty was a satirical novel as we mentioned but prior to that, we had four successive historical novels coming home and claiming the trophy.\nSince 2000, eight of the 17 winners have provided historical novels so this is as good an indicator as we can find.\nDedicated Booker Prize fans will have already read all six novels on the shortlist and will have made up their own mind as to who will take home the award. As for our own choice, the favourite \u2013 Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders \u2013 is getting the best reviews and if you are not a literary expert, it\u2019s always advisable to follow the experts and consider their opinions.\nThe result will be known in just a few days so there\u2019s still time to get involved with some strong prices from around the markets.",

        "raw_content": "Lorrie Faith Cranor and Simson Garfinkel (Eds)\nThis one is a little different from your usual O'Reilly book in that it is a collection of papers devoted to five aspects of security and usability. There are thirty four papers in all and the five areas are ``Realigning Usability and Security'', ``Authentication Mechanisms'', ``Secure Systems'', ``Privacy and Anonymity Systems'' and ``Commercializing Usability'', plus a section devoted to three classic papers in the field.\nThere are some well known and respected names amongst the authors as well as newcomers with the papers being a slightly odd mix of theory and practice. The editors (rightly) justify this because of the youth of the field, and they also emphasise the security focused nature of much of the material. Their feeling is that the main push in improving the usability of secure systems must come from the security people, and I would have to agree: systems must be secure first of all, but that is no excuse for neglecting (or at least finding out about) users' experiences with systems. And so often, of course, a poor usability leads to security horrors like people leaving passwords written on whiteboards and such like.\nThis is a book to dip into rather than read at one sitting -- I certainly haven't got to everything in it yet. As you would expect the quality of the papers is variable, though all are at least good. Your interest in the relevant area will also influence your perception of some of the material quite dramatically (I can't get excited about security on Lotus Notes for example.) The book is also pretty expensive: something to have in the project library rather to have as a personal copy. My biggest complaint is the lack of material on Trust and/or Reputation, this is an area with a lot of relevance to security and usability and where there is much interesting work. It could easily have filled another section, though by then the book would have been reaching Harry Potter dimensions.\nIt's good. Buy it for your team library.",

Independent candidates and legislators not beholden to partisan and special interests can be champions for reforms that otherwise benefit one (or both!) parties.\nThere are three important issues independents can take a different stand on: gerrymandering, ranked choice voting (RCV), and open primaries.\nGerrymandering is the process of dividing a unit into election districts so that the voting strength of the majority party is spread out and the voting strength of the minority party is concentrated. It is an obstacle to democracy, manipulating the political system and promoting extreme partisanship and special interests.\nThis process creates \"safe seats\" where, to be re-elected, the representative need only to appeal to their party base, instead of the whole population they're representing. As a result, party primaries are most competitive where members of the same party are competing to see who appeals more to ideological purity. Pragmatism is forgotten. \u201cSafe seats\u201d are particularly prevalent in Colorado. In the past 10 years, not a single congressional district has changed party hands and only 3 out of the state's 65 house districts have done so. This is largely because, in Colorado, electoral maps are redrawn by state legislatures. Naturally, the party in power is more likely to draw a map that expands their own power.\nWinning an election should not solely be dependent upon a candidate\u2019s party affiliation. All Americans are negatively impacted by gerrymandering, but there is a solution and it\u2019s one that has bipartisan support in Colorado. Former House Speaker Frank McNulty, a Highlands Ranch Republican, and former Secretary of State Bernie Buescher, a Grand Junction Democrat, are working to bring more unaffiliated voters onto redistricting commissions.\nThis will lead commissions to redraw districts\u2019 borders in a way that make elections more competitive and fair. Candidates will be encouraged to seek common ground when electoral maps are less partisan. Moreover, voters will be empowered to choose their representatives, not the other way around.\nAnother way to more accurately reflect voters\u2019 opinions is through ranked choice voting (RCV), also known as instant runoff voting. RCV is a voting system where voters rank up to three candidates in an election by order of preference, instead of voting for a single candidate. The notion of voting based off who\u2019s more likely to win, and thus supporting the lesser of two evils rather than a favored third candidate, is eliminated. Voters are enabled to vote based on their beliefs, and jurisdictions can determine which candidate truly has majority support.\nAdopting RCV will allow elections to be less partisan and more inclusive and civil. While there are certain difficulties with implementing RCV on a state level as states have multiple jurisdictions and voting equipment preferences, it is relatively easy to adopt in cities. It has already been implemented in a few small towns in Colorado and in San Francisco.\nThe state with the most independent elected leaders, Maine, approved ranked-choice voting in 2016. It was the second largest citizen initiative vote in Maine's history. In October, the State Legislature voted to delay the implementation until 2021.\nBut voters are speaking out. Independent State Representative Kent Ackley introduced LD 1646, which would implement RCV for primary elections and non-presidential federal elections, while delaying RCV for state general elections until the law complies with the state's constitution, thus respecting the opinion of the Maine Supreme Court and the will of the voters. Over 32,000 signatures for a People\u2019s Veto Referendum have been collected for LD 1646.\nIndependent politician Terry Hayes has strongly supported this referendum, saying that \u201cMaine voters deserve more voice and more choice in our democracy.\u201d\nSo do Colorado voters. If RCV was adopted in Colorado, it would save taxpayers a significant amount of money. Rather than the status quo of having two rounds of elections, each of which costs taxpayers around $1 million, Denver could have one election with a higher voter turnout.\nGiving voters greater choice in elections is also a prominent reason behind support for open primaries. In an open primary, any voter can cast a ballot in primary elections, regardless of their political affiliation. As a result, independent and unaffiliated voters can vote in primary elections. Moreover, election results become an honest reflection of the entire population\u2019s beliefs about each party\u2019s candidates, rather than a reflection of the beliefs of party insiders. While Colorado has created open presidential and congressional primary elections as of 2016, both Democrat and Republican leaders in Colorado opposed the measures.\nIndependent candidates such as Steve Peterson, Maile Foster, and Eric Montoya will support these recommendations for political reform because they are best for the state and its collective future. The current system isn\u2019t handling our political divisions. We need to improve our democratic institutions to reduce polarization. By structuring the political system to incentivize finding common ground, the system can be improved and common ground can be found on policy issues as well. But first, we need meaningful political reform. If you support these independent candidates, Colorado can get beyond negative partisanship and start working towards real solutions.",

        "raw_content": "Community Focuses on Holocaust During March/April\nIntolerance is nothing new to humanity. Throughout human history individuals, and even entire ethnic and religious groups have been targeted not just for harassment, but for extinction. This spring several organizations in the community will come together to promote diversity and tolerance.\nThe Arts Council opens two exhibits on March 18: Art and Propaganda in Nazi-Occupied Holland and Anne Frank: A History for Today. Anne Frank: A History for Today was developed by the Anne Frank House and is sponsored in North America by the Anne Frank Center USA.\nUnlike previous exhibits, visitors won\u2019t enter through the front door. No, the exhibit opens in the Arts Council basement amid dirt and debris \u2014 a space reminiscent of a bombed-out building, dark and devastated; a potential hiding place for someone who is a afraid and on the run. Once inside, the walls are lined with Dutch Resistance Art and offi cial propaganda from the World War II era. There are original posters that were used by the Nazi-controlled Dutch government; linoleum and woodcut prints created by Marie de Zaaijer that show the hardships suffered in Holland during World War II; and original drawings created by Henri Pieck when he was interned at Buchenwald Concentration Camp.\nAmid the oppressive propaganda that urges people to \u201csupport the heroic struggle of the German Wehrmacht against the dark forces of Bolshevism,\u201d is a dusty furnace door that leads to what could have made a safe haven for any of the numerous \u201cundesirables\u201d targeted by the Nazi party during that time period. As visitors move to the upstairs exhibit, there is a stop along the way to the main gallery to watch a 28-minute video, The Short Life of Anne Frank. From there the tour concludes with Anne Frank: A History for Today, which is a timeline of the story of the Holocaust through the life of Anne Frank.\n\u201cThis tells the story of the Holocaust and it introduces people to the great history of World War II,\u201d said Marketing Director at Arts Council of Fayetteville/ Cumberland County, Mary Kinney. \u201cIt talks a lot about the importance of individual action whether then or now.\u201d\nThere are several other free exhibits throughout the community in March and April that parallel the message of the Anne Frank exhibits. From April 1-May 22, Cumberland County Public Library and Information Center will host a multimedia traveling exhibit from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. The exhibit showcases how book burning played a part in America\u2019s battle against Nazism. From March 18 - April 21 the Fayetteville Transportation and Local History Museum will exhibit A History of Fayetteville\u2019s Jewish Community. Images, information, and artifacts tell the story about the positive impact of Jewish emigrants on the economic, social and cultural welfare of the local community.\nThe Museum of the Cape Fear Historical Complex examines intolerance through a different lens with an exhibit called Fayetteville and the Wilmington Race Riot of 1898. Propaganda and race relations are closely linked in America, even as far back at the late 1800s. This exhibit examines the struggle that took place in Wilmington and Fayetteville\u2019s response and connections.\nThe JFK Special Warfare Museum offers a look at many of the propaganda posters used by different organizations during World War II. The four major themes in this exhibit are Support of Allied efforts; Security, Homeland Conservation and Production and War Bonds. The 82nd Airborne Division Museum has artifacts the division captured from the Dutch National Socialist movement during World War II on display. There is an additional exhibit featuring the liberation of Wobbelin concentration camp. The Airborne and Special Operations Museum features several examples of American propaganda posters from the World War II-era.\nBeth Israel Congregation invites the public to a community observance of Holocaust Remembrance Day. The Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra and Cape Fear Regional Theatre will present Olivier Messiaen\u2019s \u201cQuatuor pour la fi n du temps\u201d (\u201cQuartet for the End of Time\u201d) and selected readings from a stage adaptation of the Diary of Anne Frank.\nFor more information, visit www.theartscouncil. com or call 323-1776.\nPhoto credit: \u00a9AFS/AFF Amsterdam/Basel",

Check out this story on USATODAY.com: http://usat.ly/1Br5BSW\nBrenda Wenning, AdviceIQ Published 1:04 p.m. ET Jan. 5, 2015 | Updated 11:55 a.m. ET Jan. 9, 2015\nInflation is too low? Tell that to American consumers.(Photo: Thinkstock)\nCorrections and clarifications: This story corrects and clarifies an earlier version.\nInflation is too low? Don't expect that to last, in light of gun-shy Federal Reserve policy and accelerating economic activity.\nWe've explained in the past how the federal government puts a yellow smiley face on its unemployment figures by excluding Americans who have given up looking for work and including part-time workers as if they are fully employed. Right now, it sees no inflation threat.\nAnd on the surface, that seems to make sense. Inflation at the moment appears tame. According to the Consumer Price Index, it fell 0.3% in November, paced by plummeting food and energy costs.\nThe Federal Reserve Board has a target of 2% yearly inflation. But in November, it fell shy of that mark for the 30th month in a row.\nAlthough the central bank has not achieved its 2% goal, there is a lag time between Fed action and expected results. Quite possibly, Fed initiatives (namely persistent ultra-low rates) and economic improvements will combine to boost inflation much higher than 2%. The Fed, afraid of falling prices, is in no hurry to raise short-term interest rates, now near zero.\nWhile the Fed has been worried about deflation, consumers have absorbed significant cost increases in items ranging from health care to cable TV. You could argue that the first is a necessity and the second is a luxury. The truth is that both are necessities these days. How soon until other vital items join them on the inflation list?\nIf the economy is finally improving, household income could increase, but so could inflation. Classically, faster economic growth leads to faster inflation. Will the Fed have the gumption to head it off? Likely not.\nWhile much of the world is slowing down economically, there are signs that the U.S. economy is recovering at a rapid clip. The Labor Department reported that employers added 321,000 jobs in November, the biggest reported gain in nearly three years. Meanwhile, the Bureau of Economic Analysis claimed that the U.S. economy grew by 5.0% during the third quarter.\nCurrent cost increases are coming at a time when the average American's income has shrunk to 8% below what it was in 2007. As we've previously reported, the U.S. Census Bureau's 2013 Income and Poverty Report found that real median household income has declined to the level it was at in 1994.\nAs a result of price increases and falling income, a new study by the Wall Street Journal found that the middle class is \"going backwards.\"\nCompiling data from 14,000 households earning between $18,000 and $95,000 a year before taxes \u2013 those who make up the middle 60% of the U.S. population \u2014 the Journal found that, \"Overall spending for the group rose by about 2.3% over the six-year period from 2007, even as inflation totaled about 12%. At the same time, income for the group stagnated, rising less than half a percent.\"\nIn cases like health care, they are spending more because it costs more. Before long, that may well be true for every segment of the economy.\nMORE:Gen Y's health saving plan\nMORE:Raising money-savvy kids\nMORE:2015 retirement $ limits\nBrenda P.

        "raw_content": "The 5G future is closer than you think\nBy: Charla Rath\nIn the last decade, advances in how we communicate have redefined what it means to \u201cbe online.\u201d Consumers are ditching desktops and laptops for sleek, handheld devices. Today, millions of Americans use these devices as their primary means to get online. And our devices are not just useful for searching the Internet, but are beginning to help us manage important parts of our lives. In the next decade, the development of the next generation of wireless services \u2013 5G \u2013 and the increasing ability to connect devices as well as people will be truly transformational.\nToday Verizon will file comments in the FCC\u2019s Spectrum Frontiers proceeding, in which the FCC is exploring the possibility of using millimeter wave frequencies for mobile broadband. By launching this proceeding, and proposing to give current millimeter wave licensees the flexibility to bring new services to market quickly, the FCC has begun to pave the way for 5G. 5G could enable about 50 times the throughput of 4G LTE, latency in the single milliseconds, and the ability to handle exponentially more Internet-connected devices to accommodate the explosion of the Internet of Everything.\nThe potential for using millimeter wave frequencies is one of the most exciting aspects of 5G. Until recently, engineers considered millimeter wave spectrum unsuitable for mobile broadband. But advances in radio and processing technologies show great promise for these spectrum bands to produce significant bandwidth for wireless applications. The FCC has already taken aggressive steps to make this spectrum available for the next generation of wireless networks to the benefit U.S. consumers and the U.S. economy. Our comments filed today in this FCC proceeding urge the FCC to move forward quickly with simple, straightforward rules.\nWith Verizon leading the pack, U.S. mobile carriers beat the rest of the world in 4G LTE deployment \u2013 Verizon\u2019s LTE network alone covers 98 percent of the population of the United States. And last year, working with our 5G Technology Forum partners, Cisco, Ericsson, Intel, LG, Nokia, Qualcomm, and Samsung, Verizon announced plans to bring 5G to the United States. We have already begun field testing 5G, and will launch some level of commercial deployment in 2017. The FCC\u2019s swift action in this proceeding will be critical to whether the United States retains its global leadership in advanced wireless communications. We look forward to working with the FCC to make this happen.\nCharla Rath is Vice President, Wireless Policy Development. She is responsible for developing and managing many of Verizon\u2019s public policy initiatives related to spectrum management. Charla is particularly focused on alternative spectrum auction mechanisms and developing sources of spectrum for future needs, including 5G. She is a member of the Commerce Spectrum Management Advisory Committee (CSMAC) and the IEEE Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks (DySPAN) Steering Committee.\nMOBILE NOW: The Senate bill that could save the Internet\nThe MOBILE NOW Act would free up much-needed spectrum and alleviate the coming \u201cspectrum crunch.\u201d\nAnother step toward 5G\nWe\u2019re on the cusp of another wave of real disruptive innovation for consumers and our industry.",

You popped the question and your partner said \u201cyes.\u201d You are both excited for the upcoming wedding, but there are many issues you must agree upon before walking down the aisle. In the midst of enjoyable decisions for the ceremony and reception \u2013 What flowers should you use? What food should you serve? Band or DJ? \u2013 there are also practical considerations that many couples ought to think about.\nAmong these less glamorous issues is the question of whether you should sign a prenuptial agreement. In the past, prenups were largely viewed as a tool for the very wealthy to protect their assets. These days, the number of people opting to sign a prenuptial agreement before walking down the aisle is on the rise.\nAccording to a survey of family law attorneys in 2013, 63 percent saw a rise in the number of people deciding to sign a prenuptial agreement during the three years prior.\nPrenuptial agreements can be a valuable tool for couples deciding to get married, as it ensures both spouses are completely aware of their financial position. In addition to determining what will happen to assets upon the dissolution of the marriage, prenups can also account for debt. If one spouse accumulates debt during the marriage, a prenuptial agreement can outline what would happen should the marriage end in divorce.\nSocial media clauses\nPrenups can also discuss non-financial situations. As an increasing number of people are using social media platforms \u2013 such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram \u2013 these days, former spouses have simple and convenient avenues to disparage and embarrass their ex upon a divorce.\nIn an effort to avoid inappropriate photographs or defamatory statements posted on these social media sites, some people choose to include social media clauses in their prenuptial agreements. Such clauses prohibit spouses from posting such messages on social media in the event of a divorce, and generally provide for a monetary penalty should one spouse fail to adhere to the terms of the provision.\nSeek the counsel of a family law attorney\nIf you are recently engaged, it is a good idea to consider whether you ought to sign a prenuptial agreement with your soon-to-be husband or wife. As it can be a difficult topic to discuss, it is best to approach the issue well in advance of the nuptials.\nWhen creating and signing a prenuptial agreement, it is a good idea to consult with a skilled family law attorney. A knowledgeable legal professional will ensure the contract is drafted properly and legally enforceable.\nPrevious Post: \u00ab \u201cDeadbeat\u201d doesn\u2019t apply to everyone who can\u2019t pay child support\nNext Post: Fathers increasingly demanding equal child custody rights in divorce \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Being Diagnosed With Multiple Sclerosis After Age 50\nWhen it comes to age, multiple sclerosis (MS) doesn't discriminate. Although most people are between 20 and 50 when they're diagnosed, according to the National MS Society the disease can strike folks who are older. If you've recently found out you have MS and you're in your mid-50s or 60s or beyond, you may not have the same treatment options as someone younger, but this doesn't mean you have no options at all.\nYou and your neurologist will go over the strategies for managing MS that will be most effective for you, but it never hurts to have some background information when you sit down to discuss them. Here are some things to know about MS treatments for older folks.\u200b\nHow the Type of MS Determines Treatment\nMost people who develop MS later in life have a progressive form of the disease, in which there's a slow and steady decline in function due to permanent damage to nerves. It usually starts with problems walking\u2014foot-dragging or stiffness in one or both legs. Over the course of months and years, the degree of disability increases.\nThis is in contrast to relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) in which people have flares\u2014bouts of disability alternating with periods of normal function\u2014that occur as a result of an immune system attack on myelin, the protective sheath that covers nerves. Once the attack is over, MS symptoms may disappear.\nGiven the differences between the two main types of MS, it's easy to see how medications for one aren't likely to be effective for the other. The drugs for treating RRMS are called disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) that work by targeting the immune system. There are 15 such medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating RRMS. Only two of these also are approved for treating progressive MS, according to the National MS Society, and even those aren't approved for all forms of the disease. It's important to note that there are three types of progressive MS: primary-progressive MS (PPMS), secondary-progressive MS (SPMS), and progressive-relapsing MS (PRMS).\nThe first of two medications that can be used to treat the progressive forms of MS is Ocrevus (ocrelizumab). This drug is given intravenously, 600 mg once every six months, with the exception of the first dose that is divided into two 300-milligram (mg) doses two weeks apart. The second drug, Novantrone (mitoxantrone), is approved for treating SPMS as well as PRMS (but no PPMS). It's given in 12 mg doses every three months.\nAs with any powerful medication, both of these medications have side effects, including some that could especially problematic for older people. Ocrevus may increase respiratory infections. Novantrone, which originally was a cancer treatment, is too dangerous for anyone who has had chemotherapy or who has heart problems to use.\nEven though medications for the forms of MS most likely to affect an older person are limited and may not even be safe, there are many treatments available to help with the MS symptoms. These include physical therapy to help build muscle strength and to teach techniques to compensate for the loss of function.\nOccupational therapy (OT) can help you to modify your home so you're better able to work around your limitations in order to take care of yourself. This could include things like adding a bath transfer bench to your bathtub and rearranging kitchen cabinets so the items you need are easy to reach. You also can learn different ways to move your body with OT.\nNational Multiple Sclerosis Society.

        "title": "Dating Apps for People with STDs Offer a Safe Space - VICE",
        "raw_content": "Illustration by Lia Kantrowitz for VICE\nDating Apps for People with STDs Offer a Safe Space\n\"You are with people who have been through exactly what you are going through and know exactly how you feel.\"\nIn 2001, at 125 pounds and with HIV coursing through his veins, a man named Rick Burton launched a website called HIVNet, one of the first STD-focused dating communities on the internet. \"It was started for purely selfish reasons...I thought it would last six months or a year,\" he recalls. \"I could meet some people and shut the thing down.\"\nBurton was first diagnosed in the 1980s, when much of America was still treating HIV and AIDS like a problem that didn't matter much because it supposedly only killed gay people and White House officials laughed about the problem. He describes those early years as living in \"survival mode.\" He was part of a community of people either scared to death or resigned to their fate, bracing themselves for whatever was around the corner. But by the mid-'90s, as the first protease inhibitors were integrated into healthcare and HIV-positive people started getting a little less sick, it became clear there was still a life left to lead.\n\"Instead of living on a six month timeframe, all the sudden you were thinking 'You know, I might have a couple years left here,'\" says Burton. But survivors still had to cope with the social stigma. \"The minute you told your friends about it, they were gone. You told your family about it and they were gone. The Internet was a gold nugget we found because we could socialize with other positive people all over the country. To me, that was a life-saver.\"\nMore than 15 years later, HIVNet is still going strong, with some members dating back to the original founding of the site. Its membership is restricted to people who are actively living with the virus\u2014a point of pride for Burton\u2014but it's far from the only site of its kind on the Internet. There's PositiveSingles, a dating app that's marketed to people with both HIV and herpes. There's Hope, which bills itself as \"the best free herpes dating site and App for singles with herpes and other STDs to find love and support.\" There's POZ, a New York-based media outlet with an extensive personals section that boasts over 150,000 members. And there's PozMatch, a site that, like HIVNet, has an HIV-positive owner and has been around since the late '90s.\nThe interface of these services are not unlike what you might find on Tinder or OKCupid. An \"about me,\" an interests section, a questionnaire for height, weight, religion, and sexuality. The only noticeable difference is the space to disclose what you're living with: Chlamydia, Hepatitis, HPV, Herpes, or HIV/AIDS. On PositiveSingles you can find message boards full of treatment advice and date success stories, as well as a navigator that points you to your nearest care center.\nDisclosure is the most important part of dating with an STD. It's not something that ever feels routine, but it's also not something you can\u2014much less should\u2014avoid. There is strict legislation across the U.S. that punishes the failure to disclose STD-positive status with prison time. Beyond that, Ii's easy to feel alienated or unwanted when a bombshell lingers over every flirt, making it only natural that many Americans turn to dating apps targeted specifically at the positive community.\nAs such, these sites offer safe harbor for folks like John Anderson. A couple years ago, he took home a one-night stand from a friend's house party, and soon after contracted Herpes. \"I knew what I had wasn't life ending in any way, but I was also very aware that it was life altering,\" recalls the 27-year-old member of the Canadian Army. \"My common sense told me my personal life had taken a hard right turn.\"\nAnderson immediately deleted his Tinder and Plenty of Fish accounts. It was a dark few months\u2014he returned to mainstream online dating briefly, but was quickly rebuffed by a few potential matches after his status was revealed, and has not been back. Rattled by those rejections, he signed up for PositiveSingles, believing it offered a better shot at a long lasting relationship.\n\"The disclosure is stressful in the beginning, but then becomes almost empowering,\" Anderson says. \"You are with people who have been through exactly what you are going through and know exactly how you feel. People who have thought similar thoughts and reacted in ways you can sympathize with. It makes sending that first message to a girl much easier.\"\nBeyond the simple disclosure, though, Anderson says the site also offered an unexpected peace of mind. \"I could at least not worry about infecting another person,\" he explains. \"The idea of infecting another person terrifies me as I wasn't informed prior to having sex with the woman who infected me; she took away my choice in the matter and that is something I can never do to another person.\"\nLindsay Connors, 35, feels much the same way. She found out she was HIV positive in 2001, and tried a few targeted dating networks in the early days of her diagnosis. Back then, she found a small pool of users and limited heterosexual options, and so has dated \"normally\" (a phrase she uses, but also hates) since, and tells me almost everyone she's ever slept with or dated has been negative. But recently, after the dissolution of a five-year relationship, she felt compelled to sign up at PositiveSingles.\n\"I wanted to have people in my life that I didn't feel I was hiding a secret from,\" she says. \"For most of us, it's so comforting to know you don't have to hide your meds,\"\nConnors has a good support system: She's a veteran survivor with plenty of people in her life that know her status, but recently she's found herself on dates with men who have been positive for less than a year, and are just as freaked out as she was as a 20-year old.\n\"It's funny, they're usually a lot older than me, where it feels like I should be seeking advice from them, but they're like, 'Oh my gosh, you have so much information,'\" Connors says. \"I have a friend right now who's a doctor and was diagnosed in the last year, and he's terrified because it could absolutely destroy his career, and I just talk him through it, and he's like, ''You don't understand what you've done for me.'\n\"I'm happy to help, because when I was going through it, I had nobody.\"\nThat kind of connection is what makes HIV and STD dating networks special: They're basically just dating tools like the rest, but a negative person's relationship to Tinder is very different from a positive person's relationship to these communities. On the former, there is no shared experience in swiping right or swiping left beyond the desire for sex or romance. But sites like HIVNet, Hope, and Poz are built as safe spaces, corners of the Internet where positive people can connect with those experiencing similar fears. People sign up for dating sites to hook up; people sign up for STD dating sites to feel recognized\u2014and then hook up.\nRick Burton learned he had HIV on an answering machine in the middle of the night. Back then, he had no access to counseling, therapy, or anything else. The infrastructure is better now, and he believes websites like his own helped make it so. If nothing else, HIVNet and its counterparts have given their users reason to believe that testing positive doesn't shut the door on authentic, transparent intimacy.\nFollow Luke Winkie on Twitter.",

They wanted to represent protection and guardianship of the environment and recognise the leadership of student volunteers. How are you going to celebrate your student superheroes? Look out for our marketing materials available next month to support your events.\nStudent Volunteer Week celebrates young people who are striving to make a change through volunteering and encourages students to try volunteering.

We celebrate volunteers and the invaluable contribution they make to our communities.\nThis day, celebrated on the same day, 5th November, every year is a chance to recognise and celebrate the vital work managers of volunteers provide to volunteers and volunteer-involving organisations through effective volunteer strategy, culture, communication and resources. Without this work, volunteers\u2019 time, talents and efforts would be wasted.\nOn International Volunteer Day, 5 December (every year), we recognise and connect with an estimated 1 billion volunteers around the globe working on the issues that affect us and our diverse communities.",

        "raw_content": "Home Footer links Useful links Industry Resources What are Temporary Bridges?\nWhat are Temporary Bridges?\nFirst developed for military use, temporary bridges are pre-engineered, modular structures that can be used to cross anything from drainage ditches, streams, and trenches to railway lines, or utility pipes that are buried close to the surface.\nFor the most part, temporary bridges are used to provide site access for construction vehicles and operatives, and are often seen bridging small culverts, rivers or sections of uneven terrain at the side of major motorways, or large building sites. They are generally between four and twelve meters long, and can be flat-packed for easy transportation and storage.\nThere are other types of temporary bridge though, as follows:\nTemporary Pedestrian Bridges\nTemporary Pedestrian Bridges are used to maintain access during construction projects, cross uneven or boggy ground, or ford obstacles so that pedestrians can go about their daily lives without too much disruption. Temporary pedestrian bridges are also used to ensure that foot traffic can reach inaccessible areas of a construction site.\nTemporary Trench Crossings\nSmaller than the average Temporary Bridge, a Temporary Trench Crossing (TCU) is a short, prefabricated unit that can be installed in under 15 minutes. They\u2019re lightweight enough to be carried by a forklift, but are rated to carry heavy traffic, and can be installed side-by-side to create a wider crossing for cranes and large construction vehicles.\nLarge temporary bridge\nLarge Temporary Bridges are often used to cross rivers, railway lines or other impassable obstacles. They tend to have a stronger, more complex framework, and generally come packed as a set of pre-made sections that can be fixed together until the desired length is achieved.\nLarge Temporary Bridges can be used to reroute road traffic during construction projects, or allow heavy vehicles access to oil, mining or quarry sites located in rural areas. Some large temporary bridges are even used to cross major waterways, and are fully highway rated.\nWhat are Temporary Bridges made of?\nTechnically speaking, temporary bridges can be constructed from anything that\u2019s strong, flexible and durable enough to bear the weight its rated for. Historically, they\u2019ve been built from crane mats, timber or scaffolding. Nowadays, most temporary bridges are made of galvanized or powder coated steel, prefabricated and then installed in a number of modular sections.\nThe floor panels are normally textured or coated to ensure that they are skid-resistant, and sturdy steel barriers are installed to guarantee that the bridge meets all necessary safety standards.\nThanks to their sturdy, steel frames, most temporary bridges are strong enough to be left in place permanently, but they can be rolled out in a few hours, and their flat-pack design means that there\u2019s no need for heavy lifting equipment.\nAs mentioned above, the tensile strength of steel and the limitations of their modular construction does limit their length to approximately 12 meters in most cases, but they are a safe, reliable and dependable option for most modern applications.\nTemporary bridges are also a very cost-effective solution to site access problems; in many cases, it\u2019s very expensive to reroute, fill or pave over culverts, drainage trenches or streams, and a temporary bridge allows you bypass this work in favour of a relatively low-cost, hassle-free solution.",

Despite appearances to the contrary, I\u2019ve been very busy!\nFirst, and I mention this for the sake of completeness, is the new website. What you\u2019re seeing right now is probably what I\u2019d call \u201cPhase One\u201d and is already a vast improvement over what came before it. In the future I will put up more content, with the intention of explaining the product to new users more effectively and allowing existing users to get the most out of it.\nI have release 2.6.2 of Yummy waiting in the wings. It\u2019s pretty much ready to go (though I do keep making minor changes) and has been for a while now. I\u2019m waiting for two things before pressing the \u2018go\u2019 button.\nIt\u2019s mostly minor bug fixes and behind the scenes changes, but one aspect that you will see is the removal of the Yahoo! ID authentication method. (Yes, Yummy was the first to add support for it and will likely be the first to remove it!) Once the sale to AVOS finally goes through, this method will be no more and will just cause confusion to new users. However, while they said that the deal would go through in July I can see no signs that this has actually happened.\nHaving said that, even if the deal had gone through, until yesterday I was unable to submit updates to any of my apps. This is because I am putting Yummy on a more formal footing and have formed a company, called Wandle Software Limited, to be the legal guardian of all my iOS software. Transitioning my developer account from that of an individual to a company took nearly seven weeks. For this time I was unable to make changes or work on beta releases.\nFor you this change makes very little difference. For me I get an awful lot of extra paperwork to fill in, but on the plus side I have a new corporate logo.\nFinally, the next major version of Yummy will likely be numbered 3.0 and it will be a significant update. Major new releases take much longer to develop and test than smaller ones. I have multiple aims for this new version, spanning the UI, new features and an important overhaul of some of the technical stuff under the hood. I\u2019ll write more about this as it nears release.",

(Susan Walsh/AP)\nReporter covering religion\nAttorney General Jeff Sessions issued sweeping guidance to executive branch agencies Friday on the Justice Department's interpretation of how the government should respect religious freedom, triggering an immediate backlash from civil liberties groups who asserted the nation's top law enforcement officer was trying to offer a license for discrimination.\nIn a memorandum titled \"Federal Law Protections for Religious Liberty,\" Sessions articulated 20 sweeping principles about religious freedom and what that means for the U.S. government \u2014 among them that freedom of religion extends to people and organizations; that religious employers are allowed to hire only those whose conduct is consistent with their beliefs; and that grants can't require religious organizations to change their character.\nThough the principles are lofty \u2014 and some of them in no way objectionable \u2014 they could have a broad negative impact, permitting religious groups to impinge on the rights of LGBT people and others, said civil liberties advocates, including the American Civil Liberties Union, Equality Federation and others. The announcement, though, was welcomed by groups like the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, the Alliance Defending Freedom and the Family Research Council.\n\"Except in the narrowest circumstances, no one should be forced to choose between living out his or her faith and complying with the law,\" Sessions wrote. \"Therefore, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, religious observance and practice should be reasonably accommodated in all government activity, including employment, contracting, and programming.\"\nThe most immediate effect seemed to be on the Affordable Care Act's contraception coverage mandate. On Friday, the Trump administration issued a rule \u2014 which the ACLU said it would sue over, but groups like the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said they support \u2014 allowing a much broader group of employers and insurers to exempt themselves from covering contraceptives, such as birth control pills, on religious or moral grounds.\n[Trump administration narrows Affordable Care Act\u2019s contraception mandate]\nSessions had offered some legal justification for that in the memo. He wrote that requiring employers to provide insurance coverage of contraceptives in violation of their religious belief \"substantially burdens\" their free practice of religion.\n\"This is a direct attack on women's rights,\" said Vanita Gupta, president and chief executive of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. \"The Trump administration is using the guise of religious liberty to carry out their ideological agenda to deprive women of basic reproductive health care.\"\nAnd civil liberties groups said there could be other effects. The principle allowing religious employers to hire only those whose conduct is consistent with their beliefs, for example, might allow a religious school to fire a teacher who had a child out of wedlock or a man who wed another man, said Louise Melling, deputy legal director at the ACLU.\n\"It is countenancing discrimination,\" Melling said. \"It is countenancing exercises of faith in a way that will harm other individuals.\"\nSenior Justice Department officials said the guidance was not meant to be a policy position, but rather, an interpretation of existing federal law. They said it was not meant to address any current legal dispute, nor was it meant to condone discrimination.\nA 2014 memorandum from President Barack Obama barring federal contractors from discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation remains in place, Justice Department officials said.\nFamily Research Council President Tony Perkins praised the memo, saying that under the Obama administration, agencies lost a proper understanding of religious freedom.\n\"President Trump and the Department of Justice are putting federal government agencies on notice: you will not only respect the freedom of every American to believe but live according to those beliefs,\" he said in a statement.\nThe guidance was generated in response to President Trump's executive order that was supposed to make it easier for churches to engage in politics without losing their tax-exempt status. Sessions's memo said the IRS should not treat religious organizations different from secular nonprofits.\nTrump's order is being challenged in court, though some religious activists and experts have said it was more symbolic than practically meaningful.\n[Critics said Trump\u2019s \u2018religious liberty\u2019 order does nothing. The administration\u2019s lawyers seem to agree.]\nRick Garnett, a law professor at University of Notre Dame, said in some respects, the guidance served to \"summarize, restate, and endorse existing and established Supreme Court doctrine,\" but in others, it took \"strong religious-freedom stands on questions that are contested.\"\nReligious schools, hospitals and other organizations would probably welcome the memo, as it would increase their ability to compete for federal grants, Garnett said. Analysts said the Justice Department seemed to be interpreting broadly a recent Supreme Court ruling that said efforts at separating church and state go too far when they deny religious institutions access to government grants meant for a secular purpose. Some analysts think that the decision was written narrowly to address only the issue of getting a grant to purchase recycled tires to resurface a playground.\nThe Justice Department under Sessions and Trump has changed course significantly from the Obama administration, especially on issues of civil rights and protections for LGBT people.\nFor example, Sessions told Justice Department employees this week that a major federal civil rights law barring employers from sex discrimination does not offer protection to transgender people. The Justice Department also sided with a Colorado cake baker who would not bake a wedding cake for a same-sex couple.\nRebecca Isaacs, executive director of the Equality Federation, said the latest memo was a \"an attack on the values of freedom and fairness that make this nation great.\"\n\"Freedom of religion is one of our nation's most fundamental values, which is why it is already strongly protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution,\" Isaacs said. \"But the freedom of religion does not give people the right to impose their beliefs on others, to harm others, or to discriminate.\"\nOthers, though, said concerns might be overblown.\n\"Most of what it actually says is bland and general,\" said Doug Laycock, a professor at University of Virginia Law School. \"Whether it is significant depends on the follow-through and on how it is interpreted.\"\nRobert Barnes and Sandhya Somashekhar contributed to this report.",

        "title": "Intelligence chiefs briefed Trump and Obama on unconfirmed claims Russia has compromising information on president-elect - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Intelligence chiefs briefed Trump and Obama on unconfirmed claims Russia has compromising information on president-elect\nBy Greg Miller ,\nA classified report delivered to President Obama and President-elect Donald Trump last week included a section summarizing allegations that Russian intelligence services have compromising material and information on Trump\u2019s personal life and finances, U.S. officials said.\nThe officials said that U.S. intelligence agencies have not corroborated those allegations but believed that the sources involved in the reporting were credible enough to warrant inclusion of their claims in the highly classified report on Russian interference in the presidential campaign.\nTrump, however, replied Tuesday night with a tweet declaring: \u201cFAKE NEWS - A TOTAL POLITICAL WITCH HUNT!\u201d Early Wednesday, he accused the intelligence community of taking \u201cone last shot at me.\u201d\nIn Moscow, the Kremlin called the report an \u201cabsolute fantasy.\u201d Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that its dissemination was \u201can evident attempt to damage our bilateral relations.\u201d\n[Russia says it does not gather dirt on foreign leaders, but history of \u2018kompromat\u2019 says otherwise]\nA senior U.S. official with access to the document said that the allegations were presented at least in part to underscore that Russia appeared to have collected embarrassing information on both major candidates but released only material that might harm Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton \u2014 a reflection of Russian motivation that bolstered U.S. spy agencies\u2019 conclusion that Moscow sought to help Trump win.\nThe inclusion of such unsubstantiated allegations in the election report, a development first reported Tuesday by CNN, adds a disturbing new dimension to existing concerns about Russia\u2019s efforts to undermine American democracy.\nAnd it adds another bizarre twist to an already strange election year, injecting new controversy over the Trump team\u2019s relations with Russia just when the president-elect is trying to consolidate and launch his new administration.\n[Republican leaders cast doubt on Trump improving relations with Russia]\nIf true, the information suggests that Moscow has assembled damaging information \u2014 known in espionage circles by the Russian term \u201ckompromat\u201d \u2014 that conceivably could be used to \u00adcoerce the next occupant of the White House. The claims were presented in a two-page summary attached to the full report, an addendum that also included allegations of ongoing contact between members of Trump\u2019s inner circle and representatives of Moscow.\nThe Russian Embassy did not respond to a request for comment Tuesday night. Officials in Moscow this week dismissed the intelligence report on Russian interference in the election, and the spokesman for Russian President Vladi\u00admir Putin said its accusations have \u201cno substance.\u201d\nU.S. officials said the claims about Russian possession of compromising material were based not on information obtained through traditional intelligence channels but research done by an outside entity engaged in political consulting work and led by a former high-ranking British intelligence official. The material was first mentioned in a Mother Jones report in October.\nU.S. officials said that while the FBI had so far not confirmed the accuracy of the claims, U.S. officials had evaluated the sources relied upon by the private firm, considered them credible, and determined that it was plausible that they would have firsthand knowledge of Russia\u2019s alleged dossier on Trump.\nThe CIA, the FBI and the White House declined to comment on the matter.\nAfter CNN\u2019s report Tuesday, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), Trump\u2019s nominee to be the next attorney general, was asked at his confirmation hearing about the allegations in the intelligence report.\n\u201cIf it\u2019s true, it\u2019s obviously extremely serious,\u201d Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) said, after reading from the CNN report. \u201cAnd if there is any evidence that anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign communicated with the Russian government in the course of this campaign, what will you do?\u201d\nSessions responded that he was \u201cnot aware of any of those activities.\u201d While saying he had not spoken to Trump about the reports, he said \u201callegations get made about candidates all the time, and they\u2019ve been made about President-elect Trump a lot.\u201d\nDossiers compiled by the former British intelligence official have been circulating in Washington for months. Several news organizations, including The Washington Post, have been attempting to confirm many of the specific allegations without success.\nOne U.S. official said that Trump was briefed on the allegations because they were already circulating widely and it was \u201cmostly a courtesy\u201d to let him know they were out there.\nCompiled initially in mid-2016 and supplemented during and after the campaign, the reports include detailed allegations that the Russians hold compromising material about Trump, some of it obtained while Trump visited Moscow in 2013 for the Miss Universe pageant and on a previous visit to Russia.\nOther reports compiled by the former intelligence official allege contacts between Trump personnel and business officials and Russian officials during the campaign. The former intelligence official was at one point paid to explore Trump\u2019s ties to Russia by anti-Trump Republicans and later by supporters of the Democratic Party.\n\u201cIf I was the Clinton campaign, I would be reaching out to these people who put together the dossier, and I\u2019d ask for my money back,\u201d Trump Organization Executive Vice President Michael Cohen told The Washington Post last week. \u201cIt\u2019s wrong. There\u2019s no accuracy. There\u2019s not an ounce of validity to anything that exists in that file.\u201d\nLast month, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who had been provided with the information, personally delivered it to FBI Director James B. Comey. In a statement early Wednesday, McCain said that \u201cupon examination of the contents, and unable to make a judgment about their accuracy,\u201d his only involvement in the issue was to hand the information over to authorities.\nA source familiar with the matter said the FBI had it well before then and had interviewed the former intelligence official last fall.\nClinton\u2019s former campaign spokesman, Brian Fallon, appealed for a congressional inquiry. \u201cMitch McConnell, you must let a Select Committee investigate these allegations, as @SenJohnMcCain has been urging for weeks,\u201d Fallon wrote on Twitter.\nK.T. McFarland, Trump\u2019s designated national security adviser, declined to respond to a question about the report. \u201cI don\u2019t know about the story that you\u2019re talking about that\u2019s broken,\u201d she said during participation in a panel Tuesday at the United States Institute of Peace. \u201cI know in Washington people prefer to talk about something about which they know nothing, but I\u2019m going to refrain.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m not going to say what Donald Trump thinks about the election and what involvement the Russians had. I think I\u2019d just say what [Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr.] said, which is that nothing the Russians did had any effect on the outcome.\u201d Clapper, however, testified that the report never attempted to assess what effect the Russian intervention had on the election result.\nThe two-page summary was attached to the most highly classified of three versions of the report on Russian election interference that were circulated in Washington last week, including an abbreviated declassified draft that was made public.\nIt was unclear whether the claims in the summary were even considered by FBI, CIA and DNI analysts who were responsible for the main body of the report, or whether the information from the outside group had any influence on those analysts\u2019 conclusions.\nSenior lawmakers who were briefed on the most classified version of the report declined to comment.\nRep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and a member of the Trump transition team, said that \u201cwe can\u2019t comment on what goes on in\u201d classified briefings, but he added that the idea that Moscow would seek to gather incendiary material on U.S. leaders \u201cshould not be a surprise to anyone.\u201d\n\u201cThe Russians are always looking for dirt on any politician,\u201d Nunes said. \u201cThat wouldn\u2019t be news.\u201d Asked whether he was aware of any contacts between the Trump team and Russia, Nunes said, \u201cNo. I found that hard to believe. I have not heard that. News to me.\u201d\nMike DeBonis, Karen DeYoung, Ellen Nakashima, Matt Zapotosky and Alice Crites contributed to this report.\nTrump acknowledges Russian involvement in meddling in U.S. elections\nTillerson calls U.S. intelligence findings on Russian interference in election \u2018troubling\u2019\nDo campaign statements and tweets add up to a Trump foreign policy strategy?",

        "raw_content": "Lawsuit filed against Missouri for lethal injection protocol\nBy Associated Press - Associated Press - Thursday, July 9, 2015\nJEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - A group of Missouri taxpayers and former lawmakers on Thursday filed a lawsuit against the state Department of Corrections over lethal injection policies used for executions.\nThe lawsuit, headed by former Democratic legislator Joan Bray, alleges the state uses an illegal prescription to obtain the execution drug pentobarbital from a compounding pharmacy, violating state and federal law.\nA spokeswoman for the state Attorney General\u2019s Office, which is representing the Department of Corrections, declined to comment on pending litigation.\nThe attorney for the group that filed the lawsuit, Justin Gelfand, said the lawsuit is not challenging the death penalty, but illegal execution practices.\n\u201cI\u2019m shocked by the hypocrisy of a state government that reasonably expects Missourians to obey its laws, but then uses our taxes to illegally obtain drugs to execute people,\u201d Bray said in a statement. \u201cThis lawsuit is intended to stop our government officials from violating the law, even if we live in a state with capital punishment.\u201d\nFormer Democratic Rep. Jeanette Mott Oxford, a Catholic nun and a member of the Missouri NAACP, joined Bray in the lawsuit.\nMissouri obtains its execution drug from an unnamed compounding pharmacy, and prison officials refuse to disclose details about how or if it is tested.\nThe lawsuit says receiving the drug from the pharmacy is illegal because state and federal law prohibits the use of compounded drugs commercially available in the marketplace and copies of drugs that are FDA-approved. Pentobarbital is FDA-approved.\nThe lawsuit also alleges the state uses a physician who is contractually obligated to fill prescriptions for the drug without conducting a medical exam, which the plaintiffs also say violates state and federal law.\nInmates facing the death penalty have repeatedly challenged the state\u2019s use of pentobarbital with little success.\nAttorneys for Walter Timothy Storey tried unsuccessfully to halt his execution over concerns about Missouri\u2019s secretive process for obtaining and using the lethal injection drug. He was executed in February.\nGelfand said he hopes a Cole County Circuit judge will temporarily halt what he described as illegal executions. He said a hearing is scheduled for Friday, just days before a Tuesday execution scheduled for David Zink, who was convicted of abducting and killing a southwest Missouri woman in 2001.\nFollow Summer Ballentine at https://twitter.com/esballentine.",

        "raw_content": "Can You Sue For Bad Behaviour?\nSome States Say Yes. Some Say Maybe\nJust because you can get a no-fault divorce in many states doesn\u2019t mean you are safe from accusations of marital misconduct that has a negative economic impact upon the spouse that\u2019s the victim of the bad behavior, according to the National Legal Research Group.\nMarital misconduct by legal definition is behavior that happens before the marriage ended. It destabilizes the marriage and causes the victim spouse a significant physical, emotional or financial burden. Among the actions that can be considered as marital misconduct: infidelity, alcohol or drug abuse, gambling, acting out against the victim by causing significant damage or harm, murder or attempted murder and any other criminal conduct.\nCourts would also consider if the marital assets were excessively spent so the offender could participate in the misconduct.As an example, in 1990 a Pennsylvania court ruled in favor of the wife, awarding her all the marital assets after her ex-husband was found to have used money from their accounts to in a plot to murder her.\nMany states that consider marital misconduct as an optional to allow a spouse to choose a no-fault divorce as well. What that means is if the couple is not acrimonious, they don\u2019t have to check the nasty boxes on the initial divorce papers that indicate fault or guilt,\u201d\u009d explained Belinda Rachman, a divorce attorney and mediation expert.\nIn 2008, Rhonda received her divorce in Tennessee, a state that considers fault when the offended spouse\u2019s actions cause future financial consequences.After years of marriage, \u201c\u2026I ended up with fractured vertebrae and severe depression. I couldn\u2019t find a job anywhere because of my problems,\u201d\u009d she said.The court awarded her the largest portion of her and her ex-husband\u2019s assets.\nStates across the country vary in their consideration of marital misconduct charges. Some states, like Missouri, will consider marital misconduct if it placed an extraordinary burden on the victim spouse which forced the victim to take on more than half of the marital duties.\nSome Americans think the no-fault divorce makes it too easy to get a divorce. However, some experts say a no-fault divorce is a better option than one in which grounds are used to determine why a divorce should be granted. The Tennessee Alliance for Legal Aid thinks having the option offers help for a victim spouse, who may have put in the majority or work and income into the marriage and can then be properly compensated in the divorce.\nRachman promotes the no-fault option explaining, Lawyers have a vested interest in making a case nasty because that is how they get paid. About 85 percent of couples should avoid getting separate attorneys if they want to protect any children and save a lot of money.\u201d\u009d",

        "title": "What Does The Bible Say About Relationships? Is One More Important Than Another?",
        "raw_content": "What Does The Bible Say About Relationships? Is One More Important Than Another?\nThe Bible is a book of relationships. It shows us what our relationship to God is meant to be and how we can have that kind of relationship. It shows us how we should interact and treat our fellow Christians. It shows us how we are to view those who do not believe. Because we can see and touch the physical world around us, many times it seems more real than the spiritual world in which we connect and communicate with God. This means that sometimes we let our earthly relationships become more important than our relationship with God. What does the Bible say about relationships?\nLove The Lord\u2026First\nIn Mark 12:30, Jesus tells us that our first responsibility is to Him, \u201cAnd you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength\u2019\u201d. This same theme is reiterated many places in the Bible (Deuteronomy 6:5, 13:3, 30:6; Matthew 22:37; Luke 10:27). Putting the Lord first in our lives is the most important decision we could ever make. A life built around anything else but God, is a life built on shifting sand and vapor. Too many people today wonder why their lives are filled with so much turmoil and misery. However, these very same people refuse to submit to God and live for Him. These people build their lives on fantasies and deception; then they wonder how it could all fall to pieces. It is because their foundation was untrustworthy. They put their faith something other than God and that something let them down. There is no surer foundation for life than a relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ. It is this relationship that must be first and foremost in the life of the Christian.\nOnly when Jesus is our priority can we be assured that our other relationships are based on a firm foundation.\nThe command that we are to \u201clove our neighbor\u201d is repeated many times throughout the Bible (Leviticus 19:18; Matthew 19:19, 22:39; Mark 12:31; Galatians 5:14; James 2:8). Along with the admonition to love God completely, this command was also repeated in three of the four Gospel accounts. The importance of loving God and loving others as much as we love ourselves is apparently a very important matter. It is also very important to get the order correct\u2026God first; everything else follows.\nThe apostle Paul said that we can be sure we are treating others the way God would have us treat them if we simply followed this commandment, \u201cFor the commandments, \u201cYou shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,\u201d and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: \u201cYou shall love your neighbor as yourself\u201d\u201d (Romans 13:9 ESV). Simply, if we are motivated by a love for our neighbor, we will never intentionally do them any harm, only good.\nEarly in the creation account found in Genesis, God instituted the union of marriage, \u201cTherefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh\u201d (Genesis 2:24 ESV). This is certainly a relationship of which Jesus approved because, when questioned about marriage He reiterated the word of the Genesis account. However, He added some words that make the marriage union even more important, \u201cHe answered, \u201cHave you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, \u2018Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh\u2019? So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate\u201d (Matthew 19:4-6 ESV, cf. Ephesians 5:31). It is clear that God designed marriage to be between one man and one woman \u2018for as long as they both shall live\u2019. Although, as sinful human beings, we do not always live up to this standard, the marriage bond was designed by God to be permanent. The failure of humanity to take this union more seriously is resulting, and has resulted, in much of the moral decay we see in our nation today.\nOther Believers\nWhen a person becomes a believer in Jesus Christ, that person begins a new relationship with others who have done the same. The new believer becomes a member of the family of believers. These believers build each other up in the faith. They can be trusted for wise counsel. The Holy Spirit living within believers empowers us to have a special relationship with one another that, at times, can be an incredibly special bond.\nIn the gospel of John, Jesus says, \u201cA new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another\u201d (John 13:34-35 ESV). The New Testament repeatedly admonishes Christians to love one another (I Thessalonians 4:9; I Timothy 1:5; I Peter 1:22). Because of his or her relationship with God, the believer now has a special connection with other believers. The love of God binds them together in a way nothing else can.\nChristians are to encourage one another, \u201cLet each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up\u201d (Romans 15:2 ESV; cf. 1:12). The Bible says that believers are all part of the Body of Christ (I Corinthians 12:11-13; cf. Galatians 3:28; Colossians 3:11; Ephesians 2:13-17) and, as one body, we are to support one another. We should help those brothers and sisters in need and not merely be concerned for our own needs (Philippians 2:4). We should also be quick to forgive a brother or sister when they have wronged us (Colossians 3:13).\nAs John 13:34-35 stated, non-believers should see something different, and wonderful, about the way Christians treat each other.\nAfter Jesus\u2019 resurrection, before He ascended to God, He commanded his disciples to, \u201cGo therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.\u201d (Matthew 28:19-20 ESV). This command applies to us as His disciples also. In the Old Testament (Ezekiel 18:23, 32; 33:11) as well as the New Testament (Matthew 18:14; Luke 19:10; II Peter 3:9; I Timothy 2:4), makes clear that God [Jesus] does not want anyone to suffer eternal punishment. Jesus came to earth, died on the cross, and has entrusted to us the task of taking His message to the people of the world. We are to be lights in a sin-darkened world, showing people the way to the Savior (Matthew 5:14; Philippians 2:14-16).\nJesus stressed how important it is that we put Him first in our lives when He said, \u201cWhoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me\u201d (Matthew 10:37 ESV). Jesus did not say that we are not to love others, but that we must love Him more than all others. Many more relationships could be considered, such as children, bosses, and extended family. However, the quality of all these relationships hinge on the preeminence of our relationship with God. When our relationship with God is our most important relationship, all other relationships will be what they are meant to be. In other words, only when Jesus is our priority can we be assured that our other relationships are based on a firm foundation.\nLove Your Neighbor As Yourself: 7 Practical Tips\nBible Verses About Marriage: 20 Scripture Quotes\nTagged as: bible, husband, Neighbor, Relationships, wife\nRobert, this is so good my friend.

During those times, I focus on loving God 100% and find that when I am focused on God, the loneliness disappears. I\u2019m mindful of the fact that when I\u2019m with others, I should focus on loving them rather than just assuaging my loneliness. Still, I believe God designed us to live in loving community with one another and your article was a timely reminder of that truth.\nThank you Hwee,\nYou have probably experienced this, but I notice that, when I\u2019m with a group of believers, the love is almost tangible. Almost like I am being bathed in God\u2019s love. A wonderful feeling indeed. God bless you.\nYes, a relationship with God is the foundation for all other relationships. So well said, Robert!\nandrew iroboinose September 17, 2012 at 1:30 pm\nWell done Pastor Robert, It is good for all to know that relationship must not be build on shifting sand and vapour but in Christ Jesus.

Your comments are absolutely true. Continue to trust Him. He will never let you down and He is worthy to be worshiped.

After that, the service could be working in about five years.\nIn the tests, Musk would send the satellites up on a Falcon 9 rocket, made by SpaceX. They would communicate with ground stations in the US, and establish whether those connections would be enough to send information from the ground to the satellites with enough speed and consistency to work for internet connections.\nMusk is only one of a number of entrepreneurs and companies that have looked to build such project, and is up against Richard Branson-backed OneWeb, which wants to provide a similar service.\nSuch ventures have failed in the past - in the 1990s, a Bill Gates-funded company, Teledesic, ran up costs of $9 billion before it realised that its satellite-powered internet was not going to work.\nBut Musk's success could be in the fact that he would be able to send the rockets up in SpaceX's own products, meaning that the company could control the whole process itself.\nElon Musk to put 4,000 satellites into orbit for cheap net\nHilarity as Coast lads volunteer to test new local undies\nRosetta mission: Comet lander wakes up after seven months\nWhere to put the first electric car charge station in QLD\nSpaceX rocket landing a major feat\nbusiness elon musk innovation internet",

However, the most well-known is the Staunton design, which is named after Howard Staunton (a 19th century English chess player), and designed by Nathaniel Cook, in 1849. This set is intended to withstand the rigors of practical play while maintaining the elegance and pattern of the traditional Staunton styling. The design, quality, workmanship and finish of each chess piece are Soigne.\nThe Soigne Series from our Premier Collection is Crafted from Rosewood and Boxwood. Rosewood is strong, heavy, and richly hued reddish-brown timber taking an excellent polish, being suitable for creating decorative wood. The King stands 4\" tall with a 1 3/4\" base. From the sinuous Bishop to the ponderous Rook, these pieces are sure to delight. These pieces are weighted and fit well on a board with 2.125 - 2.5\" squares.\n4\" King Weighs 2.8 oz\nA very nice Staunton design.\nThe tall pawns are nice. The bishop design is attractive. The knight pretty much looks more like a horse than many knights in other sets. The rook looks good but the battlements are not symmetrical. The queen is slender. The king is nice but the weights protruded on the bottom. If you're not a perfectionist this is a very nice set for the money. (some people are ridiculously picky) I'm satisfied.",

        "title": "What Are the Side Effects of Beta Glucan? (with pictures)",
        "raw_content": "What Are the Side Effects of Beta Glucan?\nTypes of beta glucan can be derived from barley.\nTypes of beta glucan can be derived from certain mushrooms.\nTypes of beta glucan can be derived from algae.\nBeta glucan may be used to treat the common cold.\nBeta glucan may be used to combat chronic fatigue.\nBeta glucan may be beneficial for cancer patients.\nBeta glucan has been used to combat wrinkles.\nBeta glucan may be featured in salad dressings.\nBeta glucan may be featured in sour cream.\nBeta glucan can be administered intravenously to treat cancer.\nThe side effects of beta glucan can depend on the source from which it is obtained as well as the medical history of the individual taking it. In general, beta glucan is a dietary supplement that is extracted from the cell wall of a single-celled fungi, Saccharomyes cerevisae, which is more commonly known as baker's yeast. Types of beta glucan can also be derived from several other sources, however, including grains like oats and barley, some mushrooms, and even algae. In these cases, the side effects are directly related to any allergies or adverse reactions that individuals can have to these food substances. When beta glucan supplements are produced, they are largely nothing more than refined carbohydrate compounds, but their effects at stimulating the human immune system are well-known.\nThe benefits of beta glucan primarily involve its effects on the immune system, which often means that it is prescribed to people undergoing chemotherapy for cancer who have weakened immune systems from the treatment. The supplement is also known to have the ability to suppress tumor growth and act as an antioxidant compound in the blood. Because of these beneficial effects, the possibility of side effects from beta glucan are tied most directly to people with overly active immune systems who are fighting off infections such as lupus, or who have long-term conditions that heighten immune response like multiple sclerosis or inflammatory bowel disease. The side effects of beta glucan are also a concern for anyone who has undergone an organ transplant, as this requires taking immunosuppressant drugs, since beta glucan may minimize their effects, which could result in organ rejection.\nTaking beta glucan can also lower cholesterol levels or enhance drugs designed to do so, as well as enhance the effects of antibiotics. These are beneficial effects that lead to beta glucan being prescribed for a wide range of conditions in pill form, from HIV/AIDS to diabetes and arthritis. It is used to treat the common cold as well as the flu, to alleviate the conditions of chronic fatigue, and treat common ailments like Lyme disease and hepatitis. The compound is also made into a cream that is applied to the skin to treat a variety of disorders from eczema to everyday wrinkles and dermatitis. As an intravenous fluid, it is also injected into muscle tissue for cancer patients. This array of uses and methods of use, as well as the fact that it is present in many food products like salad dressing, sour cream, and frozen desserts, means that the side effects of beta glucan have the potential to be widespread.\nIn the United States, beta glucan has earned a Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS) rating by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which means that it has no known harmful effects. The beta glucan side effects can include an allergic response, however, as it contains a yeast cell wall component known as mannan that can trigger allergic responses in people who do not tolerate yeast well in general. These groups include people with inflammatory bowel disease and Crohn's disease. There is also anecdotal evidence as of 2011 of side effects of beta glucan in some HIV/AIDS patients who have developed dense areas of skin on the palms of their hands or soles of their feet while taking the supplement.\nThe substance has undergone extensive scientific testing, however, and its immune-boosting ability has led to it being recommended for treating the blood, preventing or treating infections of many types which leads to its use during surgeries, and for fighting cancer. Beta glucan has also been shown in research to stimulate the process of hematopoiesis, which is the creation of blood in the body, and which can be instrumental in recovery from exposure to radiation. Conditions involving the joints and blood supply that are common with aging are also believed to benefit from beta glucan, such as atherosclerosis and arthritis.\nWhat Are the Different Uses of Maitake Extract?\nWhat is Lentinan?\nWhat is Sustagrain?\nHas anyone experienced body aches and pains or nausea while on beta glucan? I tried the supplement for immune support but could not use it more than a few days because of these side effects. I quit taking it and the symptoms went away. So it can't be anything else. I'm probably not the only one who developed these side effects.\nOh and my mother took it as well and reported to me that it did nothing for her. Her allergies did not improve. In fact, she feels that the supplement may have raised her blood pressure a little bit.\nWe used different brands so it's obviously the beta glucan that's problematic.\n@candyquilt-- I do not use beta glucan supplements for diabetes. But as far as I know, diabetics are at greater risk for infections and beta glucan helps prevent infections by keeping the immune system strong. So I can see it being beneficial that way.\nDiabetics should not use this supplement without asking their doctor first though. My dad is diabetic and I know that some supplements affect his blood sugar. Blood sugar may increase or decrease due to certain supplements. So it's best to check with the doctor and keep a close eye on blood sugar.\nI've read in the past that diabetes is an immune system disorder although I've not understood why. Does anyone here use beta glucan for diabetes, type 2 diabetes specifically? Has it benefited you and if so, how?",

Please help us meet this challenge.\nWe know that you are literally bombarded with requests this time of year from all the worthy organizations you support. That\u2019s why we\u2019re asking for $13.75 \u2013 this amount is the difference between the student-price ticket per lecture and the actual cost of the ticket, making it possible for more young people to attend the Series. Please remember the World Affairs Council of Oregon in your end of year giving with a gift of $13.75 or more. Participation means everything!\nFor 13 years, The International Speaker Series has been bringing the people, ideas and issues that are shaping our world to Oregon. Why does this matter? Students today need knowledge about other countries, regions, cultures, and global systems. They need skills to communicate digitally, effectively, and in other languages. They need to nurture a geographic and cultural literacy with global peers and cultures different from their own. Building skills for increasingly global interactions in the Oregon K-12 education system is vitally important to the success of Oregon\u2019s kids as they head into the global work force - especially in Oregon, where one in four jobs is linked to export.\nAs President Obama said recently, \u201cIn a 21st-century world where jobs can be shipped wherever there's an Internet connection. . .your best job qualification is not what you do, but what you know -- education is no longer just a pathway to opportunity and success, it's a prerequisite for success.\u201d\nOn behalf of the thousands of globally engaged kids, Thank you for your support now and always!\nPresident, World Affairs Council of Oregon\n*Student tickets at the discounted rate are offered to groups of 10 plus.\nFor more than 60 years, The World Affairs Council of Oregon has worked to promote international education through a variety of public programs and professional exchanges in Oregon.

        "raw_content": "The Shimabara Rebellion (December 17, 1637 \u2013 April 15, 1638) was an uprising of Japanese Roman Catholics. The revolt practically ended the Christian movement in the 17th-century in Japan. It also strengthened the Japanese government\u2019s determination to isolate Japan from foreign influences.\nThe Christian rebellion was a result of frustration with the excessive abuses and taxation of local officials on the Shimabara Peninsula and the Amakusa-rett\u014d Islands, now Nagasaki Prefecture in southwestern Japan.\nAmakusa Shir\u014d\u2019s banner in the Shimabara Rebellion, Japan.\nThis occurred during the Matsukura clan\u2019s construction of a new castle at Shimabara, provoking anger from local peasants. Most of the locals in the area had already been converted to Catholicism by the Spanish and Portuguese missionaries. Compounded with religious persecution of the local Catholics, heavy discontent resulted in an open revolt. This caused the revolution to take on Christian overtones. Many r\u014dnins supported the Shimabara cause and fought alongside the peasants with utmost furor that even an army or 125,000 government troops could not subdue.\nThe Japanese government had to seek aid from the Dutch, prompting their gunboat to blast the rebel stronghold.\nDutch ships in the seige of Hara Castle, Japan.\nOnce the uprising was quelled, the Japanese government intensely enforced the ban of all Christian beliefs and practices. In the wake of the rebellion, the catholic rebel leader Amakusa Shir\u014d was beheaded along with an estimated 37,000 rebels and sympathizers. Amakusa Shir\u014d\u2019s head was brought to Nagasaki for public display and Hara Castle, where the rebels were besieged, was burned to the ground. Once the uprising was quelled, the Japanese government intensely enforced the ban of all Christian beliefs and practices which continued until the 1850\u2019s. Matsukura Katsuie, the daimy\u014d of Shimabara was also beheaded for misruling, becoming the only daimy\u014d to be beheaded during the Edo period.\nThe shogunate largely blamed the European Catholics for the uprising and suspected their involvement in the spreading of the rebellion. Portuguese traders were driven out of the country.\nSiege of Hara Castle, Japan.\nJapan brought about strict measures on the policy of national seclusion known as the Sakoku years. The ban on the Christian religion was radically enforced and the only way Christianity could survive in Japan was to go underground. Following the rebellion, Buddhism was strongly pushed in the area. Certain customs were introduced that are unique to the area even today. The Shimabara Rebellion is known to be the last large-scale armed clash in Japan until the 1860\u2019s.\nTags Amakusa Shir\u014d, Amakusa-rett\u014d Islands, Catholic rebellion, Catholic uprising, Catholicism in Japan, HaraCastle, Japanese Roman Catholics, Matsukura Katsuie, Nagasaki Prefecture, Shimabara Peninsula, Shimabara Rebellion",

        "raw_content": "Synopsis of Olaf Witkowski\u2019s Consciousness Club Talk 10/25/2017\nTitle: Cognitive Life As Information Flows\nLocation: We Work South, NYC, NY 8th floor conference room\nAbstract: Information is found all across the domain of physics, seemingly retaining all its properties regardless of the media in which it is instantiated. Substrate-independence and interoperability made possible symbolic representations such as the genetic code, allowing for life to develop upon it. The next transition closed the loop by producing organisms increasingly aware of their environment. This eventually led to human life, capable of learning the underlying principles that created it, with the invention of language and science.\nTraditional top-down approaches to cognition infamously introduce black boxes that fail to explain underlying mechanisms and lack sufficient detail to validate models. Instead, I propose a fully bottom-up model to characterize the pathways leading artificial organisms to develop cognitive capabilities, allowing for a rigorous mathematical framing of the \"invisible reality\" of cognitive life in the universe..\nPresentation: Olaf works at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and at the Earth Life Science Institute in Tokyo, Japan on origin of life, emergence of intelligence, and artificial life using agent-based modeling, biology and cognitive science, machine learning and neural networks, and information, game, and complexity theory.\nOlaf used videos and computer animations throughout his presentation to illustrate his ideas. He began with DNA replication and repair as an example of information processing in biologic life. In artificial life, he demonstrated the use of a computer program called the Game of Life. This is a grid with rules that determine whether a specific square on the grid is on or off (black or white) based on the status of adjacent squares on the grid. He outlined four rules for an illustrative program and showed that the sequence creates \u201cgliders\u201d, patterns that give the appearance of movement over the grid. There are \u201cglider guns\u201d, from which gliders originate, that emerge as the sequence progresses over time. Patterns can become more robust and you can watch what patterns emerge based on perturbations that you can add to the program. He also showed examples of programs that can make duplicates of the patterns as in replication, and programs that can simulate locomotion in two or in three dimensions by making some of the squares \u201csquishable\u201d. The models can simulate chemistry, molecules, or dividing cells. Similar technology has been used to create computer games and graphics.\nHe said he would discuss three concerns: I) Life and Intelligence II) Distributed Intelligence III) Future of Intelligence.\nIf you look at a monkey you can determine whether the monkey has intelligence. In fact, monkeys appear to be quite intelligent as seen in a video he showed of a monkey tapping numbers on a computer screen. He then showed a fascinating video of an octopus freeing itself from inside of a glass jar by turning the jar while holding the lid still. Recently, Deep Mind published an algorithm for playing the centuries old board game of Go. This algorithm was unique in that once the rules of the game were programed, the machine taught itself the strategy and could defeat the best human world Go masters and to defeat previous Go playing machines that learned by observing humans playing Go.\nHe then looked at Life as Computation. He described three phases of this computation: A) Perception, used to predict and innovate B) Action, used to transform the unlikely into likely and C) Result, self-preservation of the entity in the given environment. As examples, he mentioned E. coli bacteria, which have the capacity to react to the environment to search for gradients in chemistry and move towards food sources. Is this a form of intelligence? In life and in artificial life Darwinian evolution can be modeled by adding perturbations to a sequence in the program that result in some members surviving and others not surviving. The beauty of computer modeling is that you can measure the effects of each perturbation to learn the effects on self-preservation. In the computer simulation that he showed, only one quarter of the entities survived regardless of the perturbation.\nHe then moved on to discussion of Distributed Information and introduced the topic with a photo of Claude E. Shannon, the father of information theory. The human brain is an example of distributed information as each neuron provides input and output for other connected neurons to process information. Other examples of distributed information include the transmission of information in a bee hive or an ant colony using pheromones, or the way a flock of starlings can keep an ordered formation for migration and for avoiding predators based only on keeping the same position relative to the neighboring birds in the flock. Shannon described methods of transferring information, for example compressing and then re-expanding data transmitted over a telephone line. He fathered the field of Information Dynamics. Olaf referred to his own papers, published in 2011 and in 2015, and a paper currently in preparation. In these publications, he refers to a source (information) going to a transmitter and becoming a signal in transmission (a message). Noise is introduced in the transmission process. This becomes a received signal when it reaches a receiver at another destination (reconstructed message). In Olaf\u2019s work, he looks at what happens when the sender and receiver are different neural networks. Once again, by performing the simulations on line, he can measure and evaluate the effects of any perturbations in the system.\nAs for the Future of Intelligence, the third topic he is discussing, he concludes we will need to befriend each other to make the best use of information. In ant colonies, sometimes the ants follow pheromone signals into a death spiral. In biology, some parasites (such as Schistosoma) can have controlling influence on many other species as the worm passes through its life cycle in varying hosts. There are technologies that may reduce our own capabilities as we come to rely on them. Smart phones may be one such example as we rely less on our own memories. But there are other technologies that can expand our intelligence and can lead to unexpected progress. The introduction of the abacus was one such example. One goal of YHouse is to expand our collective intelligence, not to shrink it.\nIn conclusion, he has discussed Life as collective computation. He has shown that computer simulations can be better than experimenting with living entities. Introducing constructive misunderstanding (in the form of noise and perturbations in simulations) can help us to expand and not shrink our intelligence.\nWe opened the discussion for questions here.\nQ: A woman had heard of bacteria that send electric signals to other bacteria to communicate. Is he aware of that?\nA: He looks only at bits on computers. He measures how you can use information to optimize your own survival.\nQ: Life without consciousness is not life. Consciousness may not be computerized. What is your opinion?\nA: Looking carefully into the Game of Life, even in these systems you can see forms that act as Agents. Some of these agents can observe the behavior of other agents. If such an agent can observe itself (receive data about itself just as it processes data about its neighbors), is that consciousness? He can see what it is to be an agent by looking at the equations of data in and data out.\nQ: The systems he has shown are low entropy. But the higher the intelligence, the higher the entropy.\nA: Olaf knows the literature on this \u2013 the Maximum Entropy Principle \u2013 and thinks although it starts from a nice simple idea, it has not brought any helpful answer to the debate. One must start with simpler models to understand the nature of how intelligence naturally emerges in systems.\nQ: You cannot discuss evolution without discussing the environment. To see if consciousness is high or low entropy you must look at the environment.\nA: I\u2019m not sure we get the right answers by looking at entropy.\nQ: What is the lower end of the rules needed for self-replication?\nA: Probably under 1 megabyte, for the 3D replication model shown earlier, and under 1 kilobyte for the simpler ones. These sizes though are very highly dependent on the physical rules of the simulation being considered, as these may themselves hard-code for high-level macros, making it much shorter to code complex functions..\nQ: You defined life as computation. What distinguishes animate from inanimate in computation?\nA: The short answer is nobody really knows. There is a long debate in the origin of life literature. Some start from the premise of life needing to be chemical, which seems wrong. One definition is given by Piet Hut, founder of YHouse: Autonomous agents in complex systems. There is no definite answer for now, but we are finding new ways of identifying living systems\u2019 properties, and demonstrating the necessary and sufficient conditions for their emergence.\nQ: Is the foundation of life self-preservation?\nA: The question is like a mathematical one. You start with a conjecture and work with that to get a theorem.\nQ: Awareness is artificial life. Have you seen systems that became self-aware?\nA: The short answer is no, as very little is known or agreed upon about what awareness means. But he could see that happening as agents get information about themselves and can predict their own future states. This may have meta variables, like awareness of anger or the identification of other emotions in general, which in turn can influence behavior.\nQ: In your work with Guttenberg in preparation you mentioned noise may lead to a grammar that allows you to summarize the received signal with less bits. This is by lumping energies to form sentence structures. Is the emergent grammar very dependent on the noise? If you remove the noise will the grammar change?\nA: We haven\u2019t tried that but it would be interesting.\nQ: Gliders are not really moving, but replicating at a distance.\nQ: What is the purpose of this work?\nA: Well, for one thing I find it fun. Also, given life, it would be a pity not to try to understand life as best we can. Science involves advancing collective knowledge and collective intelligence. Some people in the field do this research with the purpose of uploading their persona to a replicable machine-based framework, as they see this as a possibility within the time frame currently available to humans.\nQ: Can you distinguish agent from environment?\nA: There exist mathematically well-defined concepts such as Autonomy. Can you predict your future state? That is agency.\nQ: Can the environment be an agent?\nA: Absolutely, environment can be an agent.\nQ: Information can be disembodied and exist outside the material world. Can life be disembodied?\nA: Yes. Eric Smith speaks of life as the biosphere. Information in Shannon\u2019s theory is not localized in space, but space corresponds to information. Information is always About something. In this body of work it is best to be careful to study Relevant Information \u2013 roughtly, information about something you care about.\nQ: Can a life form transition from one medium to another?\nA: Yes. The internet was created by us, but we may not be the same life on-line.\nQ: That is not the same as downloading yourself to a computer.\nA: One can imagine scenarios in which when life originated it was made of matter now considered inorganic, before transforming to the medium used by the first living cells, life as we know it everywhere on Earth.\nQ: It sounds like an organism must be embodied.\nA: All we know about scientifically is matter and energy.\nWe ended the discussion at this time.",

        "raw_content": "By Michael Koehle (United States)\nMy current body of work is in an investigation of water. This investigation is a proxy for understanding the effects of climate change. The changes to our environment are potentially so vast, they are incomprehensible. But by studying a raw material of these changes, water, I feel I am able to metabolize what these phenomenon might feel like. I\u2019ve learned a lot about the nature of water \u2013 its index of refraction, the attenuation of light in water, chemicals that can slow its evaporation, which dyes dissolve completely, how to simulate it using particles. Making work that explores water\u2019s vastness, multiformity, and strangeness help me feel like I understand the shape of the changes ahead.\nThis was made using custom written software to translate the columns of an image into a topographic cross section, based on grayscale values.

The strips are folded and glued to a panel.\nPaper, PVA glue, wood panel.\n60 x 38 x 2 inches, 18kg.\nWhile this entry is created based on digital fabrication and digital data, I was strongly attracted to how it emphasizes strength in a physical sense.\nAs long as we are physical humans, we certainly cannot ignore the sensation that physical objects elicit. The stunning and overwhelming appearance of an absurd number of laminated sheets of paper allows the viewer to vividly experience the invisible force of nature that is climate change, leaving a deep impression on the viewer.\nWe (the YouFab Judges) collectively appreciated how the novelty of the technology cannot be misinterpreted as the strength of the work; rather, the technology is sublimed in such a way as to become a raw material of the work's strength.",

        "raw_content": "Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies Series\nSkills in Canada: First Results from the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC)\nThis report presents the first results of the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC), an initiative of OECD. PIAAC provides internationally comparable measures of three skills that are essential to processing information: literacy, numeracy, and problem solving in technology-rich environments (referred to as PS-TRE).\nThe report provides information about the literacy, numeracy, and PS-TRE skills for the Canadian population aged 16 to 65. It provides results for Canada as a whole, as well as for all the provinces and territories. In addition, it looks at the relationships between skills proficiency and a range of socio-demographic characteristics (e.g., age, gender, level of education) across the entire Canadian population. It also reports on first results on the literacy, numeracy, and PS-TRE skills of Aboriginal populations, immigrants, and official-language minority communities.\nCanada in the International Context\nLiteracy\u2014 Canada ranks at the OECD average in literacy. However, Canada shows a larger proportion of its population at both the highest and lowest levels of literacy.\nNumeracy \u2014 Canada ranks below the OECD average in numeracy, and the proportion of Canadians at the lower level is greater than the OECD average.\nPS-TRE \u2014 Canada ranks above the OECD average in PS-TRE. Only Sweden exceeds Canada in the proportion of its population at the highest level of proficiency.\nA higher proportion of Canadians engage with information and computer technologies than the OECD average.\nSkill Levels and Distributions within Canada\nThere are notable variations in scores across provinces and territories, in all three domains.\nLiteracy and numeracy scores are highest at ages 25 to 34, and are lower among the older age groups.\nIndividuals aged 16 to 34 are found to be the most proficient, in PS-TRE. Despite higher levels of proficiency in PS-TRE among youth (16 to 24), 9% display proficiency at the lowest level in PS-TRE.\nMen have higher numeracy skills than women across the entire PIAAC age spectrum, while, in general, both genders display similar proficiencies in literacy and in PS-TRE.\nHigher education is associated with greater literacy, numeracy and PS-TRE skills, particularly for those with postsecondary education (PSE) \u2013 bachelor\u2019s degree or higher.\nProficiencies in information-processing skills of adults with PSE - below a bachelor\u2019s degree are below those of adults with PSE \u2013 bachelor\u2019s degree or higher, and more similar to those of adults with a high school diploma.\nThe employed population displays greater information-processing skills than the unemployed and not in the labour force populations.\nLiteracy and numeracy skills of unemployed and not in the labour force populations are similar. However, not being in the labour force is associated with lower PS-TRE skills compared to the unemployed population.\nHigher education and working in managerial and professional occupations attenuate the difference in information-processing skills between younger and older age groups. This is especially true among individuals with PSE \u2013 bachelor\u2019s degree or higher.\nWhile workers in managerial and professional occupations display greater information-processing skills than workers in all other types of occupations, workers with the greatest information processing skills are those in managerial and professional occupations who also have PSE \u2013 bachelor\u2019s degree or higher.\nOn average, initial results indicate that information-processing skills of Aboriginal populations, immigrants, and official-language minority populations vary considerably across provinces and territories and across skills being measured. These results warrant further research that would shed light on how skills vary in relation to other socio-demographic characteristics in these populations.\nA snapshot of literacy and numeracy skills in 2003 and 2012 shows differences in scores and proficiency levels. In 2012, a lower proportion of Canadians are at Level 4 or 5 and a higher proportion at Level 1 or below.",

        "title": "Thank You, Stan Lee (1922-2018)",
        "raw_content": "In the world of comic books and superheros, one name usually stands out, Stan Lee.\nThere will be never be another one like him. He was the public face of Marvel in the 70s and went on to make over 60 cameos in movies and other platforms. Along with Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko and others, Lee was part of something that is now a global phenomenon.\nWith the sad passing of Stan Lee, Rich and Ben sit down and talk about his incredible legacy.\nB: I\u2019m just very sad right now. I mean, it\u2019s not hit me as hard as I thought it would. I mean when Carrie Fisher died I was in tears. I was a zombie for a couple of days. It hit me hard. But Stan Lee has influenced more things in my life, so you\u2019d think his death would have been more upsetting. I guess given his age, it\u2019s not as much of a shock. And probably I\u2019ve been expecting it since before the MCU was even a thing.\nR: Yeah I get what you mean. It\u2019s probably a similar situation to David Attenborough in many ways. You have a living legend, who has left such a massive impact on the world, but he\u2019s getting on now and it\u2019s kind of anticipated, if that makes sense?\nB: Yeah. Still very sad. But he lived an incredible life, he helped to shape the lives of so many people and left a truly once in a lifetime legacy behind him.\nR: He definitely brought a lot of joy into the world.\nHow Stan Lee Impacted My Life\nR: For me, I have to go straight to my time at university. I moved down to London, away from my friends and family. Totally on my own, starting life in a big city. It was daunting, but exciting at the same time. I met a guy called Chris on my course and he was really into comic books. He started lending me them and really kicked off my love affair with Marvel comics. He was into the 60s & 70s stuff, and being that \u2018uni type\u2019 we both were very snobbish about the modern stuff. So we wanted to be all \u2018cool\u2019 by liking the retro stuff. Obviously this was a time when Lee was heavily involved creating so many of the characters we know and love today. So at a time when I was feeling isolated in a big city, Marvel comics helped me make friends.\nB: Funnily enough, mine is a similar story.\nB: I got into comics when I first went to secondary school, so 98\u2032. Being a \u2018geek\u2019 back then was nothing like it is these days. To my knowledge, I was the only person in my school who loved comics, at least openly. Our school library got a batch of Marvel and DC illustrated encyclopedias, so I jumped on that straight away. I literally went every lunch time and read them every day. Just increasing my knowledge and introducing myself to characters I had never heard of. It opened so many comic doors for me. For two weeks I was the only one reading them. One day I went in,just like normal, but there was a boy sitting there reading the Marvel one. I felt offended at first, in my eyes it was \u2018my book\u2019. I was the only one who ever bothered to read it. Turns out this boy, Adam, wanted to read it but i always got there first and he was to nervous to approach me. We were both similar in that sense, so we got talking and then our friendship grew from there.\nR: It\u2019s crazy how we both have similar stories, that it helped us make friends at a time in our lives when we didn\u2019t have many.\nKing Of The Cameo\nR: These days people will just think of him in those cameo roles. I mean don\u2019t get me wrong, they are brilliant and he\u2019s fantastic. But I think sometimes his legacy get\u2019s fudged a little as a guy who just does cameos.\nB: I totally agree, but I would say that this probably only really applies to people who only bother with the movies. A wider, more general audience. People who are into comics, you\u2019d think, would always appreciate and remember him for his impact on the wider industry and not just the MCU.\nR: Yeah that\u2019s a fair point.\nBest Cameo Role\nB: So speaking of cameos, what would you pick as your favourite?\nR: Tough one. There have been so many good ones. I\u2019d probably have to go with his Spider-Man 3 cameo. Probably the only thing good about that mess of a movie. It was a key moment, carried some weight. It was that positive outlook and ideology that Lee was famous for. Brilliant.\nB: Good call. I nearly went with that one. He\u2019s had so many amazing cameos, some that are just funny, others that, like you said, carry some weight to them. Mine is a subtle one, no grand speech or comedic one-line. It was in Daredevil (2003). The one where he was about to walk into a busy road but young Matt Murdock stopped him with his stick. Lee played the up \u2018shock\u2019 perfectly. Daredevil is one of my all time favorite characters, so it\u2019s fitting that my favourite Lee cameo would be in this movie.\nR: So both our cameos are in crap movies basically!\nB: How very dare you. Affleck was da bomb in Daredevil.\nR: It pretty much speaks for itself. He co-created and created some iconic characters that have stood the test of time. His vision, along with Kirby etc laid the foundation for everything that followed. He was a real personality and will be missed by everyone who knew him, or his work. I love the Marvel movies, so for me it\u2019s the MCU. He made it possible. He influenced those who are working on these films, and many other formats. He is part of the reason why geek culture has been more widely accepted and embraced.\nB: Most definitely. I could talk in-length about all his great characters, stories and influence. I could praise his cameos and talk about his modern achievement in helping to shape one of the greatest and most successful movie franchises of all time. But for me, Stan Lee\u2019s legacy is more personal and closer to home. A few years back I spotted a guy I knew from school. This guy would hit me on a daily basis. When I walked past him he would spit on my art folder, decorated in superhero and \u2018greb band\u2019 cutouts . This guy didn\u2019t spot me, but he was wearing a Captain America shirt. It blew my mind. Here was the guy who would bully me for liking superheros, now wearing a superhero t-shirt. Marvel is so ingrained in popular culture that most people will know who these characters are. It\u2019s amazing to think kids are now able to be open and express there love of superheros, and not be singled out because of it. It\u2019s made the world more inclusive.\nWe\u2019d love to hear your thoughts and memories of Stan Lee. What was your favourite cameo? What did Stan Lee mean to you?

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m sitting in my Grandma\u2019s rocking chair watching my children play in my front yard (hoping they don\u2019t break a window with their new baseball). I can\u2019t get life off my mind. My mom and I discussed seasons of life last night, and it changed me.\nSince humanity began, we have been dealing with the seasons of life. But how will that look in my life? I knew, for example, that my children would be different than each other, but how? My mom mentioned that she is now the oldest mother in our line of mothers. It didn\u2019t take long for it to happen.\nMy grandmother might not be here on earth with us anymore, but one beautiful thing keeps us all together, connected. No matter where we are located physically, my family is here for each other. Whether it is a check in the mail, a card on a birthday, family portraits, a home, professional advice, an offer, a hand to hold, or a meaningful prayer or conversation, we can depend on each other. We may not see each other as often as we used to, but I\u2019m thankful for technology to step in the gap.\nI\u2019m trying my best to teach my children about everyone even though we live in a different state now. Trust me; they can tell you about the massive family tree I drew one day on our dry erase board. I miss you all so very much, and I hope you know you are all welcome to visit us here, too. (Just not all at once if you need free lodging. ha. But seriously.)\nI started this post last year sometime, but my opening line is still true today. I am in a new season of life again. I am still getting to know my own children and how they are different from each other, but I am so thankful for the different gifts that all of my aunts, uncles, parents, and all of my cousins have that we share with each other. None of us are perfect, and I\u2019m sure we can all drive each other crazy at times; but we are family. We\u2019re supposed to, right? I love you all. You are a blessing to me. I am thankful for Jane.\nPosted in FamilyTagged encouragement, Family, grandparents, in memory, legacy, love, Mom blogBy melclayLeave a comment\n\u2190 For Your Heart to Heal",

        "raw_content": "5.1 Change: the success story\nWomen, gender and feminist struggles in India\nThis week you will be introduced to some of the concerns related to women and the politics of gender in contemporary India. The section will also focus on some of the key issues related to feminist struggle over the last three decades. Not only will it touch upon the achievements of these struggles but also deal with issues related to missing women, low sex-ratio of women compared to men in India, violence against women, the demand for representation in legislative bodes and the struggle for the rights of sexual minorities. The theme of gender justice and how it is articulated in various forums will also form an important part of this section.\n5.0 Overview: women, gender and feminist struggles in India3:35\n5.1 Change: the success story12:09\n5.2 Continuities and paradoxes19:27\n5.3 Violence against women21:43\n5.4 Poor women11:15\n5.5 Muslim women. The Shah Bano case9:09\n5.6 Sexual minorities10:10\n5.7 Sex workers7:23\n5.8 Summary and conclusion6:49\nGreat, so we're first going to look at the positive changes as I\nsaid the successes and the achievements of women in India and\nI supposed the best place to begin is in looking at the constitution.\nThe constitution was drafted by Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, and it came into force\nin India on the 26th of January, 1950. Now remarkably for\nthe time, the constitution guaranteed the right to equality of all citizens.\nSo articles 15 and 16 of the constitution prohibit discrimination on the grounds\nof sex but also on the grounds of religion, race, caste, place of birth or\nNow, this was quite as I said, remarkable for the time.\nAnd what it meant was that women were treated as equal citizens\nwithin the constitution.\nHowever this does not preclude the state from making special provisions for\nwomen and children or other socially and educationally backward\ncaste or classes and this exception is allowed\nbecause these groups are considered deprived and\ndisadvantaged, historically disadvantaged in some ways.\nAnd need to be either protected or provided for.\nSo constitutional equality goes hand-in-hand simultaneously\nwith the allowance for special provisions for women that\nwouldn't necessarily be considered discriminatory.\nWe've seen in the decades since independence\nseveral inspiring women leaders and achievers in all fields.\nSo we have women political leaders, and we have women who are leaders in\nvarious fields whether we're talking science, whether we're talking business.\nTo name some of the prominent women political leaders, you have Indira Gandhi,\nwho was the prime minister of India.\nYou have the President, Pratibha Patil, who was president of India\nbetween 2007 and 2012, you have women as chief ministers.\nSo you have the chief minister of Tamil Nadu, Jayalalithaa.\nThe chief minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee.\nYou had Mayawati, who was the youngest Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh in 1993.\nAnd several other women who are in politics.\nThese are just some of the key names that we can talk about.\nWe can also point to the rising rates of literacy and\neducation for women and girls.\nSo for instance when we're looking at female literacy rates,\nthe rates rose from less than 10%\nat the time of independence to around 65% in the 2011 census.\nNow, you might say 65% is still not a great figure, but if you look at\nhow far we've come from where we started it is quite a significant achievement.\nYes, there is, of course, still further to go in terms of literacy.\nIn terms of education the millennium development goals in\nparticular brought about a spur of increased investment in girls education.\nAnd so we've seen rapid increases\nin the enrolment of girls in primary school.\nSo the net enrolment ratio between 2008 and\n2012 came up to about 98% according to the UNICEF figures.\nSimilarly, we've seen declining fertility rates.\nNow in the 1960s the number of\nchildren each woman had on average was around six.\nNow this has declined to 2.5 in the 2011 census.\nNow obviously, declining fertility rates are also considered\na positive figure when we're looking at women.\nBecause fewer children usually means better health for the mothers.\nAnd they're better able to care for\nthose children as well.\nSo declining fertility rates are often used\nas a proxy indicator to understand whether or\nnot women's position has improved.\nWe can also look at some of the key milestones that\nare observable in the post-Independence State.\nAnd here, where we're looking in particular at the actions\nof the Indian state around recognition of women's,\nadvancement in India.\nSo one of the first key recognitions\nthat the state made was the enactment of the 73rd and\n74th Constitutional amendments in 1991.\nNow, this was enacted by the Rajiv Gandhi government and\nit's introduced local self-governance in India.\nThey're known as the Panchayati Raj amendments.\nAnd what was significant about this amendment was that\nit introduced reservations for women.\nAt the level of local self-government where one-third of\nthe positions in village or block level representative\ninstitutions, the Panchayats, were reserved for women.\nNow this was quite a landmark legislative change.\nIt meant that over a million women pretty much overnight,\nbecame elected representatives in local and municipal governments.\nNow initially, there was much skepticism about the women\nwho did get elected and there were claims that\nthese were, these women were members of the Bahu Batey Brigade,\nthat is the daughters-in-law and\nthe daughters of men who were in local self-government.\nBut that pattern while it may have been\ntrue initially, has definitely shifted over the years.\nWhere initially, perhaps, women may have been elected because they\nwere members of already political families and they were providing.\nThey were acting as proxies for their husbands or\ntheir fathers or their sons who were the ones in power.\nToday we see a lot more women who are independent and autonomous\nand acting in their own right as representatives.\nSo this was one of those major changes in the political\nlandscape that was brought about by some progressive legislation.\nAnother series of state sponsored\nprograms was initiated in the 1990s.\nNow these programs for women's empowerment,\nfor women's development, were initiated in part as\nan outcome of the advocacy of the women's movement in India.\nSo you had for instance the Mahila Samakhya Program, which was initiated\nin several districts in India in Gujarat, in Bihar,\nin Karnataka. You had the Women's Development Program in Rajasthan.\nNow these were large scale programs which were mobilising women, particularly\nrural women, into groups into collectives and\nmany of the activists from the women movement were part of\nwere appointed as consultants or hired in to design these programs.\nSo many of them were quite radical, at least in the initial stages\nin terms of their vision of articulating women's rights\nand advocating on a range of women's issues.\nAnd we'll come back to these programs a little later\nwhen I talk about violence against women, and we look at one of\nthese programs in particular and what happens to one of the workers\nin this program.\nNow while the initial momentum of these programs was\nquite radical they later retreated from these,\nkinds of radical positions and\nbecame much more conservative and much more aligned with\nself-help groups and micro-credit as an intervention that would be\nadvancing the women's cause.\nBut, while micro-credit and self-help groups do\ncertainly help women advance economically, to some extent,\nthe political impetus of the early formations\nof Mahila Samakhya, and the WDP,\nthe Women's Development Program got lost\nby the 2000 by the early sort of 21st century.\nI early 2001 you saw\nthe state enacting the national policy for the empowerment of women.\nNow although it contains this language of empowerment of women,\nand certainly can be considered a key milestone for\nwomen in terms of the legislative\nchanges brought about by, the government,\nthis document, in effect, marked that shift ,\ntalked about, where you had a shift towards self-help groups and\nmicro-credit, and away from a more radical politicised intervention.\nSo this brings to a close the section where we're talking about some of\nthe positive successes and changes that have happened.\nWe looked at some changes that were organic,\nthat happened over the period of the past few decades.\nBut we've looked at some of the changes that have been brought about by specific\nstate interventions as well.\nIn the next section, we'll be talking about some of the less\npositive continuities in the ways in which women\nstill are disadvantaged and discriminated against.",

        "title": "How Keith Richards' 'Talk Is Cheap' Saved the Rolling Stones",
        "raw_content": "How Keith Richards\u2019 \u2018Talk Is Cheap\u2019 Saved the Rolling Stones\nHe couldn't. Already at a low creative ebb, the Rolling Stones' endured a shower of bad reviews for 1986's Dirty Work. Mick Jagger seemed more interested in his nascent solo career, electing not to tour with the Stones. At the same time, the band was trying to deal with the loss of longtime pianist Ian Stewart, a glue-guy sideman who often smoothed things over within their warring factions.\nAt loose ends, Richards finally decided to strike out on his own. Simply making the decision seemed to open the creative floodgates, even though Richards had never been a frontman, and only rarely even took over the mic. Richards said, in a way, he felt he had been left no choice.\n\"It was necessary to work. Talk Is Cheap came out of necessity,\" Richards told the Tulsa World in 1992. \"I had never made an album by myself, and I had to be the focus of the whole thing. I felt I had had a very cushy life in a way. I could direct things, but I wasn't the No. 1 man. I let Mick take that.\"\nWatch Keith Richards Perform &apos;Take It So Hard&apos;\n\"Take It So Hard,\" the lead single, re-established every grimy, laconic credential Richards had in the Exile on Main St. era. But \"You Don't Move Me,\" Richards' perhaps inevitable take down of Jagger, garnered the most contemporary press clippings. \"Half of me's saying I don't want to rub the guy's nose in it,\" Richards told the Washington Post in 1988, \"but of course you're also human, so you stick the knife in and turn it one time. Anything Mick and I do, if we could keep it quiet, we would. But it eventually goes public. He's still my friend and it doesn't diminish the work we do \u2013 can do \u2013 together.\"\nElsewhere, \"How I Wish\" and \"Whip It Up\" were of a similar piece, boasting the whiff of danger and depth of real emotion that had been missing for some time from his collaborations with Jagger. But there was far more to Talk Is Cheap that comfy Stones-isms. Richards kicked things off with the greasy funk of \"Big Enough,\" then continued through a thrilling menagerie of personal influences from rockabilly (\"I Could Have Stood You Up\") to Memphis soul (\"Make No Mistake\"), from reggae-fied rock (\"Rockawhile\") to Louisiana-inspired roots music (\"Locked Away\").\nThe results couldn't have been less like the sleek R&B-infused sounds found on Dirty Work, much less the glammed-up pop-rock Jagger was peddling as a solo artist. Principal collaborator Steve Jordan made a telling comment, in that same 1988 interview with Rolling Stone: \"It's a real record,\" he said. \"We weren't trying to do anything hip.\"\nMuch of Talk Is Cheap was cut in about 10 days at a Montreal studio with a core lineup of regular collaborators. Dubbed the X-Pensive Winos, the group also included guitarist Waddy Wachtel, bassist Charley Drayton and keyboardist Ivan Neville. They had an instant musical chemistry, even though no auditions were held. (Richards called Wachtel and said, simply, \"I'm putting a band together, and you're in it.\")\nThere was a reason it all sounded so fresh. Richards started over, ditching any leftover songs he had from his lengthy tenure in the Rolling Stones in order to create a new composing template with Jordan.\n\"That was the biggest fear I had at that time; the reason I didn't want to do this solo stuff is exactly that reason: If I write a song, do I keep this for myself or give this to the band?\" Richards mused in his talk with the Tulsa World. \"That was the biggest stumbling block. I handle it by doing this: What songs come out of me when I'm doing the Winos, are for the Winos. What songs I'm doing with the Stones, I give to the Stones.\"\nWatch Keith Richards Perform &apos;Make No Mistake&apos;\nThere were a few guest stars \u2013 including Maceo Parker, Patti Scialfa, Bootsy Collins and Richards' old Rolling Stones bandmate Mick Taylor \u2013 but otherwise the sessions were intimate, old-school and focused on a newfound musical vibe. \"It was so hot, you could hardly believe it,\" Richards said in his 2010 autobiography. \"It brought me back to life. I felt as if I'd just gotten out of jail.\"\nIn an emblematic moment, \"Take It So Hard\" arrived in a single take. Richards asked them to try it again, but Wachtel always believed that was just a formality. \"It's just ridiculously good,\" the guitarist says in Life. \"It was the second tune of the night, and it was this killer fucking take on our strongest tune. I went back to the house going, 'We've conquered Everest already?'\"\nThey ended up climbing all the way to gold-selling status, as Talk Is Cheap offered definitive proof that there remained an audience for a Stones record that sounded like, you know, the Stones.\n\"It made you reevaluate everything, and wonder just who'd been responsible for what,\" music journalist Rich Cohen wrote in The Sun & the Moon & the Rolling Stones. \"In other words, Jagger's dash for freedom backfired.\"\nIn this way, Richards' solo debut led directly to their reunion for 1989's Steel Wheels. \"Almost Hear You Sigh,\" a Top 40 U.K. hit for the Rolling Stones in 1990, actually grew out of the sessions for Talk Is Cheap. Richards seemed to sense that all of that was still in front of his old band \u2013 that one day, they'd get back together. At the same time, he'd belatedly established something for himself away from the Rolling Stones.\n\"For the last couple of years I\u2019ve had to deal with not being one. At first, it almost broke my heart,\" he told Rolling Stone in 1988. Richards came to believe their time apart had helped him to be \"a better Rolling Stone, or make the Rolling Stones better. I have a little more confidence in myself, by myself. I found that I can, if I have to, live without the Rolling Stones. And that my only job isn't desperately trying to keep a band together that maybe needed a break.\"\nSee the Rolling Stones Among Rock\u2019s Strangest Deaths\nSource: How Keith Richards\u2019 \u2018Talk Is Cheap\u2019 Saved the Rolling Stones",

Not so tight that you squeeze the stuffing out, nor so grippingly smothered that there is no breath left in there, but just hold them. People and things which are loveable are getting hard to come by these days. For that matter, \u201clove\u201d has been receiving a less than Biblical definition lately as well. Even with that reality, \u201cletting go\u201d happen far too easily.\nWhen a mother holds her baby, she holds him gently enough that he can wiggle, yet tightly enough that he can\u2019t wriggle free. When daddy holds his daughter\u2019s hand while crossing the street, she still is walking on her own feet, but she is never out of his hand.\nThat is the same way we ought t o hold the ones that we love. Loosely enough that that person can be a real person and have an identity of their own. Loosely enough they have freedom to pursue things that are not especially of interest to you. Loosely enough that their breath and yours may come from a different chunk of atmosphere on many occasions. Loosely enough that you can\u2019t become paranoid at every hint of anything that does not specifically include you.\nOn the other hand, we need to hold on tightly. So tightly that there is never a chance for that one we love to ever get away. So tightly that when they feel like trying to get away, and they just might from time to time, they can\u2019t. So tightly that no one can snatch them out of your hand, even though some might try this as well.\nThere should be room enough for personal identities and interests. But there should never be so much room that there lacks any identity of togetherness. And there should never be even the slightest thought of an identity which is absolutely devoid of the other. After all, God loves you, and that is how he holds you. He has no intention of setting you loose just to prove that you are His.\nMy sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father\u2019s hand.

These survivors were both Klingon and Romulan and there were those of subsequent generations that were of both races. This was shocking to Worf who only knew of hatred and animosity between the two races, resulting in a large part from the Khitomer event. Yet here were Romulans and Klingons living together and happily ever after.\nFrom the point of view that Worf brings to the encounter, there were several things that were conspicously absent from this new culture. While Worf was versed and rehearsed on the literature and dogma of the Klingon people, there was no one telling these stories to the young. No one was telling them of their proud heritage. They were instead mixing theirs with the Romulans and clouding the picture. Worf begins to tell the stories. Though he is met with some resistance, he is allowed to continue.\nEnter Ba\u2019el. Ba\u2019el is young girl, of mixed blood, who is taken by the stories of Worf. She listens to them. She remembers them. She meditates on them. She asks questions about them. Her curiosity has been awakened and she wants to know more, because the teller of those stories has a passion for and eloquence with those stories like no one she has ever heard. As the episode nears conclusion, Ba\u2019el questions Worf:\nBa\u2019el: \u201cThese stories you tell, are they true?\u201d\nLt. Worf: \u201cI have studied them all my life and find new truths in them.\u201d\nHow often do you find an audience for the timeless truths in the immutable Word of God? Are those truths alive in you? Have you studied them all your life? Are they fresh enough for you to tell them any time the moment allows? Are they so much a part of you that you can\u2019t possibly allow them to be absent? And, perhaps more importantly, is the \u201cTruth\u201d of the most grand story ever uttered, the reality of redemption, so real that you can find new \u201cTruths\u201d as God reveals the deeper things of scripture to you?\nTeach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, And I shall keep it to the end. Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law; Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart. Make me walk in the path of Your commandments, For I delight in it. Incline my heart to Your testimonies, And not to covetousness. Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things, And revive me in Your way. Establish Your word to Your servant, Who is devoted to fearing You. Turn away my reproach which I dread, For Your judgments are good. Behold, I long for Your precepts; Revive me in Your righteousness. (Psalm 119:33-40 NKJV)\nAuthor Steve GallagherPosted on September 27, 2013 Categories UncategorizedLeave a comment on Finding New Truths\nThe Right To Protect\nSeems everyone is talking about their anger against those who wish to infringe our constitutional right to keep and bear arms. I agree with them in principal. Taking away my rights because criminals abuse theirs is wrong on every front, no matter how good the intentions are. I could argue this further, \u2014\u2014 BUT! \u2014- In the protest in favor of the second amendment, which is so clearly spoken on many fronts, I fear that we have missed a more important need. This is the infringements on the first in the Bill of Rights, our right to free religious practice, and speech and press and assembly and so forth. How sad it is that the mindset of this great culture has moved from complete freedom to have whatever religious practices one chooses, without infringing on other\u2019s freedom, to a belief that we need to be free of religion. It is a much better defense of my home and family to freely practice my faith than to simply keep and bear arms. Though I choose both, I rely on God more than my little bitty gun. Besides, God is a better shot than I am anyway.\nHow clear it is that we have practically abandoned so many things that were once thought to be top priority. Faith, especially Christian faith, is considered less important than just about anything else. At least that is the way it plays out in the public square. Our fights are no longer cries of God\u2019s true and undiminishing word, as they are of social injustice or political unrest. By focusing our attention on the lesser of the important, we are losing all of the important.\nLet me try to make the point a bit more clear. Faith in the one true God, the Lord and creator of Heaven and Earth, and the ability to express that faith fully and freely is vastly more important than the ability to keep and bear arms, or any of the other items expressed in the bill of rights. The fact that faith and speech and assembly are the first of the bill of rights indicates that our national fathers may have thought so as well. If Christians would practice that faith just as it is given that we should in the Bible, the other questions would likely never be given an opportunity to be on the floor for discussion.\nDo you want to protect your rights? Do you consider them to be God-given rights? Then be sure that, when you take a stand, you stand for the most important things first and most strongly.\nToday, students all over this country have gathered in light of their right assembly, expressing their freedom of speech as they practiced their freedom of faith. They prayed for their schools, their teachers, and one another among other things. They did not need a gun to do that. Pay attention. If we give away the first, we erode the others more quickly than any politician ever can. Living for God is the best protection for everything else. Nothing else compares.\nJesus answered him, \u201cThe first of all the commandments is: \u2018Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.\u2019 This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: \u2018You shall love your neighbor as yourself.\u2019 There is no other commandment greater than these.\u201d (Mark 12:29-31 NKJV)\nAuthor Steve GallagherPosted on September 25, 2013 Categories UncategorizedLeave a comment on The Right To Protect\nHe Ran Mine First\nI attended the re-inaugural OBU Summer School for Pastors in July of 2012. After the first night, the group of pastors, tired from hours of sitting in a classroom and full of new information joined together in the lobby of the dormitory (which happened to be a girls dorm \u2013 there is another story in that I guess), got online with our computers and shared whatever wisdom any of us could. There was one pastor who had other things on his mind for that 100 degree plus July evening. He laced up his red running shoes and went out to tackle some pavement.\nAs he went out the door, several of us asked him to run one for us. He smiled and said he would as he left. When he returned, I asked this pastor that I only knew from the day\u2019s conference, \u201cDid you get mine?\u201d He quickly responded, looking straight at me, \u201cYeah, I got yours first.\u201d\nThe next morning as we gathered in our classroom for the day\u2019s lectures, we had prayer time together and, you guessed it, his prayer was for me. I am very grateful for someone who will run my mile first, then intercede on my behalf before the Father.\nThere is something of Christ in that fellow pastor whose name I don\u2019t even recall. I just hope I can show some of that to someone one of these days.\nTherefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

During the course of events portrayed, there are several flashback scenes which help to describe the struggles that led to the triumph at the end of the movie.\nOne such flashback shows the young Lindbergh giving a flying lesson to a priest. The cockpit conversation turns to God \u2013 Charles Lindbergh was not known as a great man of faith. I enjoyed the way the priest makes clear why God is worthy of being the object of his faith. Here are a couple of lines from that dialogue;\nLindbergh \u2013 Suppose you were up in the air and the engine conked out and you were falling out of the sky, do you think God would help you then?\nPriest \u2013 I can\u2019t say yes or no \u2026 but He\u2019d know I was falling.\nIsn\u2019t it enough to know that God knows when we\u2019re falling? I suppose that it should be enough, but there are times when it just doesn\u2019t seem to be so. There are times that we want, and believe that we need more than simply the knowledge of His knowledge. After all, I have seen many airplanes falling from the sky thanks to photographers who knew that the planes were falling and could do nothing but watch and document. If watching is all that God does, is that enough?\nThe theologian in me wants to say that it is, but the weak and wounded child in me wants to cry out at the top of my lungs, \u201cNo, I need more!!!!\u201d And the reality is that God offers more. But, sometimes, before He gives us the \u201cMore\u201d it is necessary that we become content with simply knowing that He knows. Then, be very attentive because God will always be near. He is not known for being just a spectator.\nI cry out to the Lord with my voice; With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication. I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare before Him my trouble. When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me. Look on my right hand and see, For there is no one who acknowledges me; Refuge has failed me; No one cares for my soul.\nI cried out to You, O Lord: I said, \u201cYou are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living. Attend to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are stronger than I. Bring my soul out of prison, That I may praise Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me.\u201d (Psalm 142 NKJV)\nAuthor Steve GallagherPosted on September 22, 2013 Categories UncategorizedLeave a comment on He Knows I\u2019m Falling\nThe Best Inheritance\nNone of my family, neither my parents nor their parents, has ever been accused of being rich by any stretch of the word. So it stands to reason that when a family member passes away, there is no expectation for an inheritance of huge monetary worth. Since there is no expectation, there is no disappointment.\nSuch was the case when my Granny passed away. She lived the last years of her life in a small retirement apartment and then in a nursing home. She left very little. But she did leave a couple of things behind. I got my little bit just like all the rest of us.\nAt the home of one of my aunts, we were going through some of Granny\u2019s left overs and there was this little blue glass jar. It was a Mary Lowell Hand Cream jar \u2013 Granny was forever putting lotion on her hands. It held a few buttons and a couple of little Christmas type jingle bells. I am pretty sure that she never threw a single button out \u2013 ever. Nobody wanted that little jar, so I piped up and said I would take it. I took my little jar back home with me and set it in a place where I would see it once in a while. It would make me think of Granny for those moments when it caught my attention. It is my singular portion of the inheritance, well almost.\nOne day, when I picked up my little blue jar and held it in my hand I remembered a conversation Granny had with me shortly after I surrendered to the ministry. My mind was taken back more than 20 years to that conversation about our family heritage. In that brief moment stolen from the din of many members of our huge family gathered for one of those holiday get togethers, Granny told me that I was now number nine in a long line of Baptist preachers. It took more than twenty years and the task of officiating her funeral service to bring me back to that conversation.\nI began to dig into my family heritage a short time later. That research showed me that nine generations back near Pickens, South Carolina, there was an illiterate itinerate Baptist preacher, John \u201cThe Ten Shilling Bell\u201d Chastain. He founded and pastored the Oolenoy Baptist Church in 1795. I have found a person with the title \u201cReverend\u201d or the certain probability of being a preacher in every generation since. That along with Granny\u2019s word is enough to convince me. I am a ninth generation Baptist preacher.\nThe research is ongoing. In fact, I stopped in the middle of this writing to send a question that came to mind as I wrote. I have found though that I have a heritage of faith that goes back to a man born in France around the year 1600. His family was persecuted for their faith. They were known as Huguenots. What a rich heritage I have!\nI come across that little blue jar from time to time. And when I do, I think of my Granny who told me about my heritage of faith. That is the best inheritance I could ever want. It is much bigger than anything that will fit in any little blue jar.\nAuthor Steve GallagherPosted on September 18, 2013 Categories UncategorizedLeave a comment on The Best Inheritance\nA Word About Faith\nIn the whole context of the couple or three \u201cFaith and mountain\u201d passages, did any mountain ever get moved? In all of the several \u201cFaith made whole\u201d passages, is it that faith which did the healing? Does faith really feed, or does God? Can faith move a mountain, or can God? Can faith redeem or does God redeem through it?\nThere are many who have their faith in whether they can muster enough belief. Theirs is actually a pretty weak faith in my estimation. It is a faith in faith, and faith alone is never the issue. This kind of \u201cbelieve it enough to make it so\u201d thing is a faith killer for many. It teaches them that it is up to them to be strong enough to make it happen. They have to hold on tight enough or wrestle long enough for their desired result to be seen. It also gives them permission to tell God what they want to happen and expect His sovereignty to have no place in the arena of their hopes and desires. If they are not strong enough, or can\u2019t hold on tight enough, or whatever it takes, their faith must be faulty. Could it be that it is not what God was willing to do in the first place?\nI have never been convinced that this is what God is teaching in these lesson passages about faith. In fact, I am really not sure if I can actually have enough faith to really make anything happen. That\u2019s just not what I find the point of these passages to be. Many today have moved the object of their faith away from God and that simply has to be wrong.\nFor faith to have any value there must be something bigger and better than that which can be seen or touched in which to have that faith. It is just not enough to believe. One must believe in something \u2013 and in the case of the follower of Jesus Christ, that something better be someone and that someone better be God.\nBe sure to keep the attention on God and not on either faith or the things that God honors our faith to do. It is god who heals the sick. It is God who forgives sin. It is God who removes mountains. It is God who repairs the broken heart. It is even God who pays the bills. You can\u2019t believe enough to make any of it happen unless it is God who does it. Have faith in Him.\nBeing a lover of hymns, I have to love the way B. B. McKinney penned it in this great hymn.\nWhen your pathway is lonely\nHe sees and knows all\nThe way you have trod\nAre the least of His children\nWhen your pray\u2019rs are unanswered\nYour earnest plea\nHe will never forget\nTrust His word and be patient\nHe\u2019ll answer yet\nIn your pain and your sorrow\nHis heart is touched\nWith your grief and despair\nAnd your burdens upon Him\nAnd leave them there\nOh leave them there\nTho\u2019 all else fail about you\nHe provides for His own\nHe cannot fail tho\u2019\nAll kingdoms shall perish\nHe rules He reign\nUpon His throne\nHe\u2019s on His throne\nHe watches o\u2019er His own\nHe cannot fail He must prevail\n\u201cHave Faith In God\u201d \u00a9 1934. Renewed 1962 Broadman Press (Admin. by Music Services, Inc.)\nAnd they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, \u201cMaster, Master, we are perishing!\u201d Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm. But He said to them, \u201cWhere is your faith?\u201d And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, \u201cWho can this be?

If you know where this church meets, please don\u2019t post it anywhere. The rest of us will ruin it.\nPeople regularly come to Christ, and testimony is given about it.\nThe custodial team cares that the building and grounds are ready for use rather than who left them not so.\nThe pastor would be expected to preach the entire Word of God rather than just the entertaining parts.\nThe folks would care more for people than for property.\nThere would never be a single decision made solely on the basis of the availability of resources, lack thereof nor the amount needed.\nTraditional and contemporary styles are never thought about as having very much relevance.\nThere is an acute and overriding awareness that, with very few exceptions, there will be a need for this church to exist 30 years from today.\nA complaint is brought by the person complaining to the person about whom the person is complaining, and no one else.\nPrayer request time is never a gossip time.\nPeople assume every line in the Bible to be true.\nPeople assume every line of the Bible is relevant.\nTruth matters more than feelings or popular opinion.\nFellowship does not necessarily always involve food.\nThe choir leader does not need a degree in Kindergarten.\nThe bus is always left clean and full of fuel.\nSomeone who stumbles in their walk is always gently lifted to his feet.\nThe pastor never feels like writing that Monday morning resignation letter.\nThe accused is never convicted without proper, Biblical process.\nIt is not necessary to fight God\u2019s people to do God\u2019s work.\nWorship is not thought of only in terms of music.\nThe clock is not an active indicator of the quality of a sermon.\nEach person serves within his gifted passion rather than his guilted position.\nEvery member tithes.\nGod\u2019s way is more important than any other option.\nThe preacher and the musicians are not expected to be simply entertainers.\nThe Biblical models of authority and leadership are simply experienced and never need defending.\nPeace at any price is never considered to be worth the cost.\nWhatever it is, it is done with excellence or not done at all.\nThe leaders are expected to be human.\nPeople who don\u2019t fit in, do.\nUnity matters more than polity.\nSomething broken can be repaired without official church action, even if it costs a lot of money.\nChrist is exalted and nothing else matters in comparison.\nHere is what Jesus thought the perfect church would be like:\nAnd the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me. \u201cFather, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.\nO righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me. And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.\u201d\n(John 17:20-26 NKJV)\nAuthor Steve GallagherPosted on September 10, 2013 Categories UncategorizedLeave a comment on In The Perfect Church\nAuthor Steve GallagherPosted on September 9, 2013 Categories Uncategorized2 Comments on How To Have Great Kids",

(Photo by Mitchell Leff/Getty Images)\nJoel Embiid made his long-awaited debut for the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night, and it is fair to say that Embiid lived up to the hype that had built over the previous two years.\nIn his first real basketball game in over two years, Embiid dropped 20 points, showed himself to be a defensive anchor and a beyond-solid rebounder, and also unveiled a wide-ranging offensive arsenal.\nHe got his first regular season basket in style\nIt didn't take long for Embiid to show off his range either\nSteven Adams is one of the NBA's better defensive centers, and he couldn't contain Embiid\nIn short, Embiid was extremely impressive in his debut, and Sixers fans have a lot to be excited about, especially once Ben Simmons returns to the roster.",

        "raw_content": "When this album opens it certainly seemed more like the project is taking on more more conventional rock slant with this. Even with the drone and the odd touch of quirk to the vocals on the first song, you can also here traces of Led Zeppelin. \"The Dome\" has a angular groove that combines the weirdness of new wave with a driving noise rock pound. Things don't fall as firmly into the craziness I expect from these guys until on \"Warning\" and then it has a hint of punk to it. His wife Lydia Ainsworth, who we are a fan of here lend her voice to \"Pygmalion\". It sounds more like her song that what this project does. But it hovers rather than forming a song, so it more of an interlude. I guess everyone has to do a cover of \"Sinnerman\". The monotone vocals make less of an effort to convey the emotion of this song, so it falls way short of of Nick Cave's on this song.\nI really like the dark powerful pound of \"Look Daggers\". It works of a pretty simple throb , but it's effective, almost like a more demented version of Clutch. \"A Sacrifice\" finds the darker turn the album takes progressing even further. The tempo picks up rather than relying on a drone.\nLydia returned to sing \"Sons and Daughters\". This feels more like it came from the 80s. Something Blondie might have done. The album closes with \"Uniform of a Killer\". It begins with a march and moves into a simmer , but doesn't engage me as much as some of the other songs on this album.\nI'll round this one up to an 8, as it reaches a decent compromise. I think some of the more sonic oddities and genre jerking that have been reigned in for the sake of songwriting are not missed as long as they are keeping this heading in a darker direction. I think this album is such it's own thing that it is going to take some time for it to really wear on me , though I suspect tit's the stronger songs which I hear as the darkest that will become most endearing over time.\nLabels: \"Who Do You Love\", 8, album review, Arabrot, art rock, Lydia Ainsworth, noise rock, norway",

        "raw_content": "No Boundaries to Innovative Thinking\nBusiness Week magazine recently shared a comment made by IBM CEO Samuel J. Palmisano who said: \u201cThe way you will thrive in this environment is by innovating\u2014innovating in technologies, innovating in strategies, innovating in business models.\u201d\nInnovation is no longer about merely creating new products. It is about reformulating business processes and creating entirely new markets by striving to meet untapped customer needs. As we watch the Internet grow at incredible speed and witness globalization taking place much faster than predicted, new ideas are inevitably emerging in every industry at breakneck speeds. Today, the real challenge is in the selection and execution of the right ideas, bringing them to market and doing so before your competition does.\nTwenty years ago, innovation focused on technology and the control of quality and cost. Business Week says that \u201ctoday it\u2019s about taking corporate organizations built for efficiency and rewiring them for creativity and growth.\u201d What\u2019s really exciting is the fact that innovation doesn\u2019t have to have anything to do with technology, which means we should be tapping the potential of every member of the organization in search of creative ideas.\nHere are a few key facts to keep in mind when pursuing a creative/innovative culture:\nMany times an accident has led to tremendous success. Be aware, re-evaluate, re-frame.\nThe friction match was invented in 1926 by John Walker, a chemist in England. The discovery was accidental. Walker was actually trying to produce a readily combustible material for fowling-pieces. His first match was a stick which he had been using to stir a mixture of potash and antimony. When he scraped it again on the stone floor to remove the blob on the end, it burst into flame.\nIn 1926, a man named Epperson left his glass of lemonade on a cold windowsill. When he returned, the liquid was frozen with the spoon stuck in the middle. After he ran water on the glass, the ice came out with the spoon still frozen in the center. Epperson named his discovery the \u201cepsicle.\u201d The name was later changed to \u201cpopsicle.\u201d\nInnovation can result from necessity. Consider its long-term possibilities.\nThe \u201chuddle\u201d in football was formed because of a deaf football player who used sign language to communicate and his team didn\u2019t want the opposition to see the signals he used and in turn huddled around him.\nConsider additional uses of current everyday resources.\nCoffee was used for centuries as a medicine. It was only in the 16th century that it began to be drunk socially in Arabia and Persia.\nBe open to modifications, unexpected opportunities, or additional uses other than initially planned.\nJeans were originally made in 1850 by Levi Strauss, a Bavarian immigrant to the U.S. He originally intended to use his cloth for tents and wagon coverings. However, a miner who complained that ordinary trousers quickly became frayed and tattered on the diggings gave Strauss the idea of making hard-wearing work trousers.\nInnovation can and will occur in a wide variety of ways if you\u2019ve created a culture of encouragement and support for creative thinking. Great ideas can and do come from every level of the organization when such a culture does exist. What was once considered a nicety is today a necessity. Are you sending that message to your staff?",

Nice find, Shultzz!\nGiving nature a nudge (back towards the direction) where it was? Everything affects everything else and often in ways unforseen. And sometimes even in ways that seem to be good.\nMinor quibble: I believe the narrator referred to deer when the camera showed an elk.\nI assume the narrator was referring to the deer family of mammals. http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/mammals/deer/\nAh yes, that would make sense.\nGoogle is our friend- albeit a bit Orwellian at times. I saw the same conversation about \"ELK\" vs. Deer in the comments below the video. People get caught up in such minutia and fail to grasp the meaning of things, try to use it to discredit the whole thing.\nConfucius had a great saying.\n\"When the wise man points at the moon, the imbecile contemplates the finger.\"\nAs all here know.. the point of the story, with images overlapping and illustrating the words, is about ALL types of species that eat the vegetation along the banks, not moving and thus overeating because they are not \"pushed\" to higher ground.\nElk is less descriptive itself, being an old world word \"adapted\" to Wapiti when Europeans named them that for lack of reference to species they were seeing for the first time. Like the vernacular of \"Partridge\" for Ruffled Grouse!\" ( One I was guilty for most of my life!)\nFrom a moment searching on google i read the following:\nThe elk or wapiti is one of the largest species within the Cervidae or deer family in the world, and one of the largest land mammals in North America and eastern Asia. This animal should not be confused with the larger moose, to which the name \"elk\" applies in the British Isles and Eurasia. Apart from the moose, the only other member of the deer family to rival the elk in size is the south Asian sambar.\nWeight: 496 - 531 lb on average (Female) \u00b7 705 - 730 lb on average (Mature, Male)\nScientific name: Cervus canadensis\nGestation period: 240 - 262 days\nLifespan: 10 - 13 years on average (In wild)\nHeight: 4.3 ft on average (Female) \u00b7 4.9 ft on average (Mature, Male)\nLength: 8 ft on average (Mature, Male)\nDeer (singular and plural) are the ruminant mammals forming the family Cervidae. Species in the family include the white-tailed deer, mule deer (such as the black-tailed deer), elk, moose, red deer, reindeer (caribou), fallow deer, roe deer, pud\u00fa and chital. Male deer of all species (except the Chinese water deer) and female reindeer grow and shed new antlers each year.\nLast edited by RichieC; 09-24-2015 at 11:00 AM..",

        "raw_content": "Ticket brokers who are sometimes called \u201creservations agents\u201d or \u201cticket agents\u201d buy and sell tickets to events such as concerts plays and sporting events. They purchase tickets in bulk and act as middlemen selling them at a profit to people who were not able to procure tickets on their own. Ticket brokers are able to make the most money when there is a limited supply of tickets and a large number of people who want them. There is some controversy surrounding this practice with some claiming that ticket brokers artificially inflate the price of tickets. However the other side of the argument is that ticket brokers are just providing a service. Some areas require ticket brokers to have a license which they get by demonstrating their knowledge of relevant laws and paying a fee. Ticket brokers usually start out working for a company that buys and sells tickets. Once they develop familiarity with the trade they may go out on their own. However the ticket broker field is becoming more competitive. The website www.ehow.com says that there is no formal educational requirement for t his job but most ticket brokers have at least a high school education. Most ticket brokers learn on the job but some background in business is helpful. It is important to note that some states have specific regulations regarding the amount of profit that ticket brokers can make and some states even prohibit them from conducting business. However they often bypass state laws by doing business on the Internet. Ticket broker salaries depend on location the specific kind of tickets with which they deal and the company for which they work.

        "raw_content": "Ratfish Breeds\nThe other major subgroup of cartilaginous fishes, the subclass Holocephali, comprises about twenty-five or thirty living marine species, most or all of which are placed in a single family, the Chimaeridae. They have a single gill opening on each side, like the bony fishes, but unlike them have a soft (rather than bony) gill cover. These fishes, commonly called chimaeras or ratfish (because of their long, slender tails), live and feed on the ocean bottom, usually in deep water. They have pavementlike teeth for crushing their mollusk and crustacean food, and they have a venomous spine on the leading edge of the first dorsal fin (the forwardmost of the unpaired fins on the upper surface of the body) for defensive purposes. Male ratfishes have a fingerlike barbed clasper, of unknown function, on the top of the head, and two pairs of claspers on the ventral (belly) side of the body.At least one pair of these ventral claspers is involved in mating. The female lays eggs in leathery capsules somewhat like skate egg cases.\nThe study of sharks, rays, and related species is part of the larger discipline known as fish biology, or ichthyology. This science has its origins in the writings of Aristotle more than twenty-three centuries ago. He was the first to report, for example, that the sex of sharks can be determined by the structure of the pelvic fins, that is, by the presence of claspers in the male. Aristotle also contrived some rather fanciful interpretations of shark anatomy and behavior, as in his explanation for the fact that the shark mouth is on the under side of the head, far back from the tip of the snout, unlike the mouths of most other fish. In his view, this made it difficult for the shark to feed on its prey, requiring it to turn on its back, and thus nature allowed some chance for the poor animals to escape the jaws of this ravenous predator. Modern study of cartilaginous fishes, like fish biology in general, involves several disciplines. Ichthyology, or systematic ichthyology, is particularly concerned with the naming and classifying of species and higher taxa (taxonomic categories) and determining their interrelationships. Living cartilaginous fishes are probably better known (that is, more of the extant species have been discovered) than living bony fishes, simply because they tend to be larger, more conspicuous, and less secretive.Yet it was not until 1976 that one of the largest shark species, a deep-water filterfeeding species called the megamouth shark (Megachasma pelagios), was discovered near Hawaii. There may exist many additional Chondrichthyes species in deep ocean waters and remote coral reef areas. Chondrichthyes systematics (that is, the classification of the fishes) has undergone many changes and revisions as more has become known about fossil representatives and about the characteristics of the anatomy, biochemistry, and the like, of the living species. Studies of fossil cartilaginous fishes are limited almost entirely to samples of teeth, since these are virtually the only body parts durable enough to be preserved in the fossil record. Nevertheless, there is enough information in the characteristics of the teeth so that knowledge of the interrelationships of fossil species, both among one another and with living species, is quite advanced. It is known, for example, that the enormous hand-sized fossil teeth of Carcharodon megalodon, which lived about twenty million years ago, are so similar to the smaller teeth of the white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) that they both belong in the genus Carcharodon. Systematic study of modern species requires collection of specimens, generally by means of nets, traps, hooks, and lines, or spearing. Specimens are then preserved in some way and maintained in a museum collection. Entire specimens, if they are relatively small, can be maintained in diluted alcohol after fixation in formalin (formaldehyde solution). Other specimens, especially large ones, are dissected, and only certain parts are preserved, particularly the head skeleton with jaws and teeth. Certain new techniques provide taxonomic information from samples of living tissue. Karyotyping (analysis of the chromosomes), protein analysis (determination of the amino acid sequence), and DNA hybridization (estimation of genetic similarities) are all techniques that can elucidate interrelationships among the Chondrichthyes. Other disciplines concerned with the study of cartilaginous fishes include fisheries biology (the science of management and exploitation of commercially important fish species) and comparative physiology.\nRatfish Facts\nMontezumas Oropendola\nOne Wattled Cassowary\nPhoto Gallery of - Ratfish",

        "raw_content": "We've Got Poop\nThere's all kinds of shit going on at Casa J, literally!\nJulianna has finally mastered the art of pooping on the potty. Yippee! No more diapers (well, except for bedtime). A nice little reprieve before baby number 2.\nShe was so excited when it finally happened. I have to admit, I had nothing to do with it. I was laying on the couch, (where you can usually find me these days) and she said she has to go potty. She walked to the bathroom, sat down on the big potty, and pushed out a little turd. All of a sudden I heard her yelling, \"Mommmy, I did it!!!\" It was awesome!\nHubby and I are getting ready to go to California over Labor Day weekend. We have a wedding at Disneyworld. J is staying with her grandma for 4 loooong days. Long for me, but probably not for her because grandma spoils her. She loves spending time with her.\nAlso, J has been doing really well with her eating. She's been trying all kinds of new things. She still prefers soft foods like pasta, but she ate a piece of cheese and some bread and she's feeding herself more.\nOh and hubby and I finally bought J a big girl bed. It comes next week. She seems excited about it but we'll see. It should'nt be too much of a transition because she's been getting out of her crib for months now. She wakes me up in the morning. I used to have a rule where she couldn't get out of bed, but she would call me endlessly from her room and it got annoying. As soon as she would wake up, she would say, \"Mom, I'm awake, I'm awake,\" over and over until I came into her room. Being the lazy mom that I am, I told her it was okay for her to get out of bed and come see mommy, but that it was not okay to go downstairs by herself. So far she's been really good. I'm a light sleeper anyway, so I would hear her before she even got close to the stairs.\nOh, listen to this. When I first started this blog, I wrote a post about my favorite children's books. One of the ones I listed was titled, \"Goodnight Little One,\" by Salina Yoon. Well guess who e-mailed me a few days back??? The author herself!! It was so awesome. She said she had read the post and wanted to say hello. I couldn't believe it. She has a new book coming out in October called, \"Count My Blessings,\" about a bear who says his prayers and finds something to be thankful for in everyday life. She sent it to me with a personal message to J and she loved it.\nI haven't posted in a while so I feel like I have to catch up a bit. Did anyone watch \"So You Think You Can Dance?\" Can I just say how much I loved Travis! He was awesome. Anyway, can't wait for my regular shows to come back on.\nOkay, I'm going to stop rambling now. I've missed you guys. Can't wait to get back into the swing of things. A few more weeks and hopefully I'll feel a little more normal. Hope all is well!!!\nThe doctor went great today. Much better than expected. I was nervous about being behind in weeks but he said I'm right on target. 8 weeks and 2 days, just like my little picture to the left.\nIn the two weeks since I last visited the doctor, the baby grew a lot and that made me really happy. Oh and there's only 1 baby! Woo hoo!\nMy official due date is March 18, which is perfect because there are no other babies born in that month in my family. Between Hubby's family and mine it seems like we're always celebrating birthdays and we have to double up a lot. Not for this baby. He or she will have a birthday all their own.\nToo bad the good news wasn't enough to make the morning sickness disappear. I still feel so yucky. It's hard because I feel okay in the morning and by the time lunch rolls around I really start to feel it. I get queasy and dead tired. I'm talking lay on the couch for 2 hours tired. My poor little J! She hasn't seen her beloved swingset in weeks. I feel so bad for her, but she's been sooooo good. I will have to make it up to her big time when this is all over.\nOk peeps, I'm tired. I'm off to bed. Sweet dreams to you all! :)\nFingers Crossed for Good News\nSo tomorrow is the big day. I go back to the doctor and hopefully we'll be able to hear a big, booming heart beat. I'm a little nervous but I think everything is going to be fine. I've felt so yucky for the past few weeks, but according to a lot of you, that's a good sign. I'll let you guys know what happens.\nIn other exciting news, J is officially using the potty!!! It wasn't intentional, but over the weekend, I didn't get to the food store and we ran out of diapers. She had to go so we told her to sit on the potty. She started crying and screaming, but but Hubby and I stuck to our guns and kept insisting that she sit on the potty.\nThe situation started to intensify and she got more and more upset. We promised her a new video, we said she could get a milkshake, we bribed her with whatever we could think of. Finally, Hubby just picked her up and sat her (forced her) on the potty. He made her sit there and she started peeing. I think she surprised herself because she immediately stopped crying and was like, \"Mommy, I'm doing it!\" We were both shocked.\nWe put her in underwear for the rest of the day and decided that this was her time, that she was ready. The second time she had to go, she was still a little apprehensive. It took some manipulating and talking into, but she went again and 4 or 5 more times after that. Each time it got a little easier. By the end of the day, she would run over to the potty all by herself and pee. It was so great to watch her overcome her fear and actually enjoy going to the bathroom.\nI wasn't really prepared to start potty training this weekend, but the opportunity presented itself and we ran with it. The next day my SIL was watching her while Hubby and I went to a Sunday morning wedding. She would be away from us for most of the day and I was worried how she would do. I packed a ton of extra clothes and told my SIL that she's still very new at this (she's got 3 kids so she knows very well the perils of potty training).\nAnyway, she did great. No accidents. The only problem is she won't poop. I don't know what to do about that. Right now, she poops in a diaper, we take the yucky stuff, flush it down the toilet and go right back to underwear. I don't know if that's the right thing or not, but she holds it until she gets a diaper so I don't want her to get sick. Any suggestions?\nI'm so proud of my little munchkin. I actually can't believe how easy it's been so far. Don't get me wrong she's had plenty of accidents, but I mean easy in the sense of getting over her fear and then being willing to try everyday. I guess she was just ready.\nNow if I could just get rid of this awful all day sickness, I'd be flying high. I miss all of you. I hope you're all doing well.\nI'm Still Alive ... Barely\nI hope you all haven't abandoned me yet. It sucks checking my e-mail and not seeing comments from my cyber friends. I want to get back into the swing of things but it's been so hard. Most days I want to snuggle in my bed and sleep for hours.\nOn the days that I have to work, it takes nothing short of a miracle to get my queasy butt in the shower. I'm fine when I have to teach classes but it zaps me of whatever energy I have left. For the past two weeks, every day that I get home from work I lay down on the couch and stay there for at least two hours. My poor, wonderful, understanding daughter has been awesome. She sits with me on the couch and watches a video or goes into her playroom and plays by herself. I can't believe how accomodating she has been. She even asks if she can rub my tummy to make me feel better. I just want to eat her up.\nMy husband, surprisingly, has been just as awesome. He comes home and does whatever I ask. Laundry, dinner, taking J out somewhere so I can get some rest, food shopping ~ you name it, he's done it. And he hasn't complained once about not getting laid in over a week. Every time I think about sex I want to throw up. Not because of him, but because I feel so lousy.\nMy only saving grace in the last few days has been something called Morning Sickness Magic. Ever heard of it? You put a tablespoon in whatever you're drinking and it takes away the nausea. It's got a bunch of herbs like ginger and vitamins, too. It has worked wonders for me. The only trouble is I hate the way it tastes and you're supposed to take it 4 times a day. Still, it works so I just hold my nose and chug it.\nI go back to the doctor next Wednesday and hopefully we'll be able to hear a strong heartbeat and he'll tell me that I'm NOT having twins.\nI hope you're all doing well!!",

        "raw_content": "As iPhone users bemoan carrier, AT&T fights to improve its image\nWhile the iPhone is often heralded as the \"savior\" of smartphones, reception of its marriage with U.S. wireless carrier AT&T has been decidedly less positive. As customers' complaints with the network have increased, AT&T, of late, has begun to fight back.\nIn truth, AT&T has been the proverbial whipping boy in its relationship with Apple. As the iPhone has prospered and continued to gain marketshare, numerous surveys have found the U.S. network to be the device's least-appealing aspect. \"It's a P.R. nightmare,\" Craig Moffett, a senior analyst with Sanford C. Bernstein & Company, said in a story in last week's New York Times.\nFor months, as users have complained of the lack of features or the carrier's service, AT&T has remained relatively silent on the issues. Recently, though, that strategy has changed. Last week alone, the nation's second-largest wireless carrier announced improved 3G coverage, admitted network troubles the aforementioned Times report, released a video explaining the strains iPhone use places on its network, reached an agreement to allow one App Store application to transmit location data without the software running on the iPhone, and announced the long-awaited availability of multimedia messaging on Apple's phone starting Sept. 25. And that was all just in the span of a few days.\n\"The most important point is, we're listening to all customer feedback, and we\u0092re acting on it,\" Jamie Carracher, a member of AT&T's Blogger Relations Team, said to AppleInsider when asked about the company's recent approach. \"We're planning to invest between $17 billion and $18 billion this year to enhance our wired and wireless networks. We're pushing innovation across the industry to re-invent wireless network standards and equipment to stay ahead of customers' growing and changing use of smartphones and emerging devices.\"\nAT&T has been slow to release features for iPhone users like MMS and tethering because those who use Apple's handset consume a great deal more data than any smartphone before it. Coupled with the astounding popularity of the iPhone, the situation has created network difficulties for the Texas-based wireless carrier, resulting in dropped calls and slower data connections. AT&T's growing pains have been headaches for some customers.\nMuch of the criticism of AT&T originates online, and particularly from Apple enthusiasts \u2014and even moreso in recent weeks, as the \"end of summer\" deadline for MMS approached without a word from the company, before last week. The Web's vocal critics are why the company has made a concerted effort to address the concerns of those communities.\nRegardless of whether the message AT&T is trying to deliver is being listened to, at the very least it is being received. A new strategy in the company's public relations efforts has come in the form of \"Seth the Blogger Guy.\" Seth Bloom, an AT&T public relations employee, has appeared in a number of videos that aim to answer questions and address concerns that originate online. A three-minute rundown of the AT&T network and MMS availability for the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS has received more than 130,000 views since it was released on Sept. 3.\n\"Look, we see the discussions on the Web, on blogs, on Twitter, on Facebook,\" Bloom began his most recent video, \"so we thought it would be a good idea to take what's being said head-on.\"\nTo that end, AT&T has also set up accounts on Facebook and Twitter to not only announce news, but also dispel false rumors that crop up from time to time.\nIt's not surprising that AT&T would fight back against bad publicity on the Web. Even Apple, a company notorious for its tight-lipped approach to the press, recently took an alternative, almost grassroots-like approach to sway online opinion as criticism of the App Store swelled. But the volume at which the complaints directed at AT&T have been heard has been so great that the carrier, in recent weeks, directly admitted that at times their service has been substandard. The message the company has attempted to get across has, in effect, been: \"We are going to do better.\"\nWhile places like Facebook may be a way to reach out and communicate with customers, they also offer an outlet for customers to vent their frustrations. Recent posts to the official AT&T Facebook page feature complaints about coverage, data speeds, voicemail, and even Bloom's videos. Some of the items are given direct responses by AT&T officials.\n\"We've been working hard to foster healthy and ongoing dialogue, especially online where discussions are particularly passionate,\" Carracher told AppleInsider. \"Listening is incredibly important to us. We monitor social media continuously for questions and issues that may affect our customers, and we respond as quickly as we can.\"\nOn top of the public relations issues, AT&T has paid numerous other, more literal prices for carrying the iPhone. In addition to the billions of dollars in network improvements planned for the coming years, the carrier also pays a large subsidy on each iPhone sold \u2014an investment that significantly impacted the company's bottom line last quarter.\nTime will tell whether AT&T's campaign and ongoing investments prove effective. The company's agreement with the handset maker is set to expire in 2010, though officials are reportedly working to extend that contract through 2011. Some expect that the iPhone could jump to another U.S. carrier, most likely Verizon, within a year. And undoubtedly there are those who might wait for an alternative carrier \u2014but the effect an influx of iPhone customers might have on the performance of another network remains to be seen.\nNo matter what happens, AT&T hopes it will be able to satisfy its current crop of customers, as it continues to attract new iPhone users. And with its current outreach efforts, the company hopes its customers hear the message it has to share.\n\"Ultimately, we want customers to understand our strategy and our commitment to honing a new-generation AT&T network that is ready to meet continued growth in data demand, new devices and applications for the years ahead,\" Carracher said.\nProposed Orange-T-Mobile merger centered around iPhone\nMicrosoft unleashes retail talking points attacking Linux, Macs",

        "raw_content": "Get into archery\nWant to Become an Archer (or just try it)?\nThe best way to get an appreciation for the sport (and to understand what is meant by being a responsible archer) is to undertake an introductory coaching course at a Club. Most Clubs regularly run coaching courses over about 6-8 hours and 3 or 4 Saturdays or Sundays for around about $100. You'll be coached by experienced people who are accredited as Coaches with Archery Australia.\nAll the archery equipment needed to undertake the tuition is supplied by the Clubs. (It is recommended you do not buy any archery equipment until you have completed the course; there is a myriad of options available! But, by all means, do have a look.)\nContact one of the Clubs listed on this website for further information about upcoming coaching courses.\nArchery is one of the oldest arts still practised. The first recorded evidence of archery is attributed to the Middle Stone Age (formerly called the Middle Palaeolithic Period) - in North Africa; pre-dating Mesopotamia (the \"cradle of western civilisation\") and Egyptian, Chinese, Roman and Greek Dynasties by thousands of years.\nFrom its development in ancient times until the 1500s, the bow was Mankind's constant companion and, during recorded history, has been the most widely used of all weapons. Its historical importance is confirmed by the number of contemporary family names directly derived from archery including Archer, Arrowsmith, Bowman, Bowyer, Butts, Fletcher, Stringer and Yeoman, to name some of the more common. After the bow's replacement by firearms as a weapon of war, archery became a favoured sport, thus ensuring its continuous practice throughout history.\nArchery ranks in importance as a cultural advance with the development of speech and the art of making fire, according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica.\nAlthough its invention probably dates to the Stone Age, the use of the bow first appeared in the art of the Ancient Egyptians and is reported in folklore from more than 5,500 years ago. English literature honours the longbow for famous victories in the battles of Crecy (August, 1346), Poitiers (September, 1356) and Agincourt (October, 1415) . In fact, the bow was the principal weapon of national defence in England for centuries.\nGhengis Khan conquered much of the known world, employing the short, powerful bows of his Mongol hordes. For Native Americans, the bow was the principal means of subsistence before and during the days of English and later American colonisation. Many of the British monarchs, including Queen Victoria, practised archery. Henry VIII gained considerable renown as a bowman; organised competitions in archery for sport began during his reign. He helped found the first archery \"club\", the Fraternity of St George, in 1537. As the Prince of Wales in 1787, King George IV established the \"prince's lengths\" (targets at distances of 60, 80, and 100 yards) and the \"prince's reckoning\" (values for various target rings of 9, 7, 5, 3 and 1 point). He went on to assign the Royal Company of Archers, established in 1677, as \"the King's Bodyguard for Scotland, the Royal Company of Archers\" in 1822.\nThe first known organised competition in archery was held at Finsbury, England in 1583 and included 3,000 participants! The first international competitions in archery began with Anglo-French matches around 1900 featuring both target and flight distance shooting.\nArchery made its Olympic debut in the 1900 Olympic Games in Paris (and then in 1904, 1908, 1912 and 1920). (After a 52-year hiatus, archery returned and has been in every Olympic Games since 1972.) (In the USA, NBC said that during the first few days of its 2012 London Olympics coverage, archery was the most popular sport of any that it aired on its cable networks -- bigger even than basketball. Archery averaged 1.5 million viewers when it came on TV. Source: ESPN)\nArchery conveys strong images, ideals and values. It is often used in publicity and in communication. Qualities required in high level archery are quite similar to those needed for success in business.\nThe Target is the objective to be reached by the archer. In communication, it is the first parameter to define and to master in order to succeed in any business.\nThe Bow and the Arrow are the liaison between the archer and his target. In communication, it symbolises the ways that they are used to reach an objective with the greatest accuracy and speed.\nFacets to consider and attributes to possess include Self-discipline, Stress resistance, Concentration, Consistency associated with Accuracy, Willpower, Physical and Mental Balance, Rigour, Exactitude, Team Spirit.\nEven though Archery is an individual sport, team competitions are more and more widespread and good group dynamics lead to more impressive results. The ability to adapt to the changes in weather and environment also cannot be overstated. Archers must also have the knowledge to be able to prepare, maintain and repair equipment.\nArchery can be enjoyed by just about anyone. Brute strength is not a pre-requisite; although general fitness and the ability to concentrate is useful.\nTo perform at the highest level, practice is essential. Mental training is also necessary and involves training the mind to be able to focus on the act of shooting to the exclusion of all distractions. The archer that can successfully do this has a head start on the competition.\nThe sport caters for all people. From the recreational archer to those who wish to compete at National or International level. From the person shooting the traditional longbow instinctively or using a recurve or compound \"barebow\" (i.e. no sights), to those who prefer to shoot with sights with the latest high-tech equipment.\nThe recurve is the familiar styled bow. The compound utilises a system of pulleys to create a more efficient bow. The crossbow uses a trigger mechanism to shoot bolts. In competition each bow type competes in separate divisions.\nIn tournaments, arrows are generally shot in groups or \"ends\" of six. When archers have shot their six arrows, they record their scores.\nIn target archery, the target face is divided into 5 zones indicated by different colours; gold in the middle, with red, blue, black and white concentric rings. These colours are further divided by a line to create ten rings. The central ring has the highest score value.\nScoring involves checking and recording where the arrows enter the target. Where an arrow is touching a dividing line, the higher score zone applies.\nTo shoot a round involves shooting several \"ends\" of 6 arrows at a set distance or distances. In target archery a round could consist of between 30 and 144 or even (occasionally) 210 arrows (35 ends).\nIn field archery, targets are sited in \"bush\" settings and arranged a bit like a golf course. Archers have to negotiate the course shooting 3 or 4 arrows at each target, which will be set up at varying distances and be a variety of sizes, depending on the distance.\nClout archery involves shooting at a target laid out flat on the ground and indicated by a line of flags. Archers shoot from long distances (over 100m and up to 180m) and try to \"lob\" the arrows into the target area. This form of shooting derived from the archers' necessity in the Middle Ages to practice shooting from the battlements.\nFlight archery is simply sending an arrow as far as it can go and measuring the distance shot. It might sound simple but, for the dedicated, this is a serious business! These days, flight archery is not practised very often because of a lack of large and suitable (& accessible) venues.\nArchery is very adaptable; it is able to be shot indoors as well, which means that, no matter the weather conditions, shooting is still possible.\nAll these forms of archery employ the same shooting style and basic equipment.\nArchery is governed in Australia by Archery Australia. It is affiliated with World Archery (the International Archery Federation) and the World Crossbow Shooting Association (WCSA). World Archery is responsible for the organisation of the sport up to and including the Olympic Games and World Championships for target, field and indoor archery. The WCSA is the international organisation representing the interests of crossbow shooters (for information relating to starting off with a crossbow, you should read this first.).\nOK - what are you waiting for?\nSo there you go, now get to it.

        "raw_content": "What We Can Learn From the Basque Country\nThis article explains what Portugal and Spain can learn from the Basque. The Basque Country is one of Spain\u2019s 17 Autonomous Communities in the current territorial arrangement negotiated in Spain in the aftermath of Francisco Franco Bahamonde\u2019s death on 20 November 1975. Franco was the fascist Dictator who ruled Spain between 1939 and 1975. The Basque Country has been partly associated with violence and terrorism since the terrorist band ETA was founded in 1958. ETA announced a definitive ceasefire in October 2011 (ceasefire statement can be read in English from http://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/oct/20/basque-ceasefire-statement-full-text).\nThe Spanish Constitution approved in referendum on 6 December 1978 recognizes nine historical nationalities. Only in the Basque Country and Catalonia nationalist parties have ruled with absolute majority or in coalition most of the time since 1978. The Basque Country and Catalonia have demanded more autonomy and today along with Navarra are Spain\u2019s most devolved communities in a quasi-federal state (Spain).\nThere is much that the rest of Spain and Portugal can learn from the Basque, including Catalonia. Leaving violence and terror behind \u2013hopefully for good- the Basque are ahead of the game in the Iberian Peninsula in a majority of areas and indicators. The Basque have the best job market and the best performing educational system in Spain at the primary and secondary levels. The best Universities on Iberian soil are however located in Catalonia.\nFor decades Spaniards were most concerned with ETA\u2019s terrorism and violence in the Basque Country. Spaniards today are most concerned with unemployment. The Center for Sociology Research (Centro de Investigaciones Sociol\u00f3gicas or CIS) determines every month the three most worrisome issues for Spaniards in the well-known \u201cthree main problems\u201d computed every month (http://www.cis.es/cis/export/sites/default/-Archivos/Indicadores/documentos_html/TresProblemas.html). Unemployment, the economic crisis, corruption and fraud, and the political establishment were the top three plus one most voted issues in November 2013.\nTransparency International (Spain Chapter) computed the transparency ranking among Spain\u2019s Autonomous Communities in 2010 and 2012 (http://www.transparencia.org.es/INCAU_2012/Ranking_Transparencia_Global_INCAU_2012.pdf). The Basque Country and La Rioja topped the ranking in 2012. Catalonia (#10 out of 17) and Madrid (#12) lagged behind.\nThe 2012 OECD PISA Report on educational achievement and performance among High School students was recently released. In the results for Spain (http://www.mecd.gob.es/dctm/inee/internacional/pisa2012/boletin21pisa2012.pdf?documentId=0901e72b8178650b) Navarre (517), Castilla-Le\u00f3n (509) and the Basque Country (507) rank in the top-three above the OECD average. This performance places the Basque Country ahead of New Zealand, Denmark, Slovenia, Ireland, Australia and Austria in the recent OECD PISA Report averages for language comprehension and mathematics performance.\nAccording to Eurostat, Spain\u2019s unemployment rate was the second worst in the European Union at 26.7% only behind Greece\u2019s 27.3%. According to the Spanish Statistics Institute the Basque Country was the Autonomous Community in Spain with the lowest overall unemployment rate and the lowest under-25 unemployment rate (under 25 years old) in each of the first three quarters of 2013. The Basque Country must be doing things differently after all. What can the rest of Spain and Portugal learn from the Basque? Why are the Basque systematically the best performers in Iberia?\nContrary to a majority of Autonomous Communities in Spain, the Basque Country has a dense and deep myriad of small and medium industrial enterprises which work in advanced technological sectors such as automotive, biotechnology and energy. These small and medium enterprises are able to generate employment which is very resilient to international competition/outsourcing and rather seasonally unaffected. Many other coastal Autonomous Communities in Spain largely depend on tourism revenue which is extremely seasonal, hiring and firing before an after the summer.\nContrary to a majority of Autonomous Communities in Spain, the Basque Country has been ruled by coalition governments during most of the present democratic stage. Coalition governments may be more unstable than majority governments, but are less prone to corruption and fraud than majority governments that perpetuate over time. Corruption charges in Andalusia or Comunitat Valenciana are related to politicians who have remained in power well over eight years.\nBecause part of the real estate boom in Spain was related to construction of apartment buildings on the seashore in the Mediterranean, Autonomous Communities in northern Spain were arguably less hit by the burst of the bubble.\nOverall regional debt has remained relatively low in the Basque Country compared to other Autonomous Communities. According to the Bank of Spain (http://www.bde.es/webbde/es/estadis/infoest/a1310.pdf) public debt-to-GDP in the Basque Country was 12.1%, only behind Madrid\u2019s 12.0%. Catalonia\u2019s public debt-to-GDP was in the meantime the highest in Spain at 27.2%. Whereas the city of Madrid owes a whopping 2,297 euros per inhabitant and Barcelona 726 euros per inhabitant, Bilbao owes a mere 6 euros per inhabitant.\nBilbao\u2019s phenomenal transformation from a vintage industrial city to a modern services and culture center has tried to be replicated without success by many other Spanish cities. Bilbao built the Guggenheim Museum and the subway and has recently demolished the old football stadium of San Mam\u00e9s. The smart transformation implied devoting the full culture budget of Bilbao for six consecutive years to the building of the Guggenheim Museum.\nThe Basque are better planners than everyone else on Iberian soil. They are also smarter spenders and more able to identify the focus of a society and maintain the pulse over time to accomplish a transformation.\nThe Basque Culinary Center (BCC) is another example of a state-of-the-art, world-renowned institution founded by visionaries able to identify a niche opportunity. BCC was founded by Mondragon University part of Mondragon Corporation, the World\u2019s largest cooperative with over 70,000 employees today.\nThe Organization of Consumers and Users (OCU) released in 2012 a list of the best cities to live in Spain. Vitoria (#2) and Bilbao (#4) were ranked in the top four. A strong job market coupled with a wide offer of culture and strong education and healthcare services explain the incredible performance of Basque cities.\nOverall there is much that the rest of Spain and Portugal can learn from the Basque. Once violence and terrorism has been left behind, we should begin a dialogue based on mutual understanding and \u2013through curiosity- mutual learning. We would all be better off if we were able to embrace diversity in order to learn from difference and enjoy it. ETA killed hundreds of innocents. Franco repressed the Basque Country for decades. We must learn to digest history and look forward. The Germans, a people with the most difficult history behind them- were able to do so in the aftermath of World War II. Incapable Spaniards and Portuguese seem to be willing to embrace absurdity in a peninsula that should be one borderless territory once and for all.\nRT Foreign and Domestic Political Risk, RT Spain\nWhat We Can Learn From the Basque Country added by Jaime Pozuelo-Monfort on December 19, 2013",

        "title": "Congress Next Step in USOC, Gymnastics Struggle -- Top Story Replay",
        "raw_content": "(ATR) The possibility of a takeover of the U.S. Olympic Committee could be an option Congress might demand as a solution to the USA Gymnastics sex abuse scandal.\nWith the publication of a report by independent investigators Ropes & Gray, questions left unanswered in congressional hearings this year might be answered. The report was commissioned by the USOC 10 months ago to provide an independent review of the circumstances of the worst known instance of sexual abuse in sport.\nThe Ropes & Gray report says thousands of instances of abuse were carried out against hundreds of young gymnasts by Larry Nassar. He was the doctor for the USA Gymnastics national team until 2015, when the first allegations of abuse came to the surface.\nThe report says key USOC executives kept silent about allegations of abuse carried out through 2015 by Nassar. He\u2019s now in prison for the rest of his life.\nThe Ropes & Gray report says that silence was the course of action taken by then-CEO Scott Blackmun and Alan Ashley, fired Monday as sports performance chief after 12 years at the USOC.\nBlackmun, CEO since 2010, resigned in February claiming health problems.\nSen. Jerry Moran (R-KS), chairman of the Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, Insurance, and Data Security, which has oversight of the USOC, welcomed the report.\n\"It is positive that USOC\u2019s independent investigators published their report today, if only so that the USOC can no longer cite an ongoing independent investigation as its reason for delaying change,\" he says. Moran\u2019s subcommittee held three hearings on the gymnastics scandal this year.\n\"As my subcommittee finalizes our extensive, bipartisan report \u2014 containing legislative and non-legislative recommendations to better protect young athletes from sexual predators \u2014 I expect USOC to cooperate with Congress and expediently begin its process of implementing much-needed cultural\nand procedural change,\u201d says Moran.\nThe question for Moran and his colleagues to ponder is whether the Ropes & Gray report and its finding of seeming indifference on the part of USOC executives will be an aggravating factor in changes the Senators will propose.\nSome changes are anticipated with the 1978 Ted Stevens Amateur Sports Act law that established the responsibilities and powers of the USOC. Congress could saddle the committee with new oversight duties that might give the USOC power to more closely monitor national governing bodies.\nMeanwhile a new team takes shape at USOC headquarters in Colorado Springs. Susanne Lyons takes over as chair January 1, while Sarah Hirshland has been CEO since August. Congress might give the new leadership a chance to deliver some early signs of change before crafting legislation.\nThe move by the USOC to end the affiliation with USA Gymnastics will be watched for its efficacy in solving the NGB\u2019s leadership crisis. USA Gymnastics is challenging the USOC move.\nCompounding the situation is the bankruptcy filing earlier this month and the hundred-plus lawsuits filed against USA Gymnastics. Some include the USOC.\nJust as the USOC has exercised pressure on USA Gymnastics, Congress could try the same thing with the USOC. Legislators could threaten to revoke the USOC federal charter as part of the demand for substantial change and accountability. John Manly, an attorney who is representing some of the abuse victims, believes the USOC should be shut down.\nSuch a drastic move would have to be considered carefully. Creating a new organization to replace the existing USOC would seem a complicated endeavor. Exactly what kind of organization is needed and how would it be different from the current Olympic committee?\nThat\u2019s the situation the USOC is facing right now with USA Gymnastics. Should the USOC deliver on its threat to boot the NGB from membership, building a new governing body for the sport would seem to be a massive challenge nobody\u2019s likely eager to conquer.",

        "raw_content": "Dr. Elodie Boublil held a Marie Sklodowska-Curie fellowship in Paris (CNRS-ENS) before being awarded a scholarship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation to carry out the following research project at the a.r.t.e.s. Graduate School, University of Cologne.\nProject: \u201cRethinking Personhood and Solidarity: The Anthropological and Ethical Contributions of the Phenomenology of Feeling (Gem\u00fct)\u201d\nWhat determinants compel an individual to act when facing the suffering of another? Is it based on its personal history and constitution (i.e., biographical and psychological determinants)? Is it contingent upon its cultural and educational backgrounds? How do we move from emotions to action and commitment? What does it take for a community to unite and stand collectively against injustice and violence? These questions underpin contemporary research in phenomenology and practical philosophy and have led to a growing interest in empathy theories and social ontology. Current debates aim indeed to ground ethics upon an anthropologically adequate picture of affectivity and interpersonal relations.\nThis project investigates the phenomenological descriptions of feeling (Gem\u00fct), as elaborated in the works of Alexander Pf\u00e4nder, Edith Stein and Stephan Strasser in order to rethink the notions of personhood and solidarity. These authors developed a philosophical anthropology of \u201cfeeling\u201d (Gem\u00fct), stemming from theology, German idealism and classical phenomenology, in order to address issues related to self-constitution, decision-making and community bonding. Contemporary research in philosophy, and especially in phenomenology and ethics, has recently demonstrated a shift toward social ontology, the phenomenology of emotions, the nature of the self and empathy, and the role of collective emotions in the development of political communities. This research project acknowledges this anthropological turn to affectivity. Yet, it contends that the underexploited works written by these authors could significantly contribute to overcome the tensions between rationality and affectivity, still at work in contemporary research. Moreover, their accounts provide new understandings of personhood and solidarity that can help elucidate the paradoxical responses to vulnerability at play in contemporary societies, namely the tensions between resilience and violence, solidarity and group-exclusion, the longing for a common horizon and the individualistic quest for self-achievement.\nThis research project will examine how these authors recast the notion of feeling (Gem\u00fct) by providing: 1/ an embodied picture of personhood that, nonetheless, accounts for the inner and spiritual life of the subject; 2/ a relational and interpersonal conception of personhood and motivation that can renew our sense of solidarity, beyond the dichotomy between liberal and communitarian frameworks; 3/ a complex description of the intertwining of social norms and moral values that fosters a new approach to worldview\u2019s formation and their impact on the subject\u2019s moral life.\nDas Projekt wird gef\u00f6rdert aus Mitteln der Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung.\nCreated: 16.

        "raw_content": "While study and pursuit of the Kundalini is considered part of the 'New Age' repertoire, it's interesting to note that like most things New Age, it's roots are very ancient and actually pervade almost every part of human culture.\nEveryday we see symbols of the Kundalini all around us, but because few people are aware of the Kundalini and it's impact, almost no one realizes what they are seeing. While entire books could be written on this subject, I'm only going to give a few (very brief) examples. Due to space constraints I chose not to include any pictures, but much of this is so common that pictorial examples won't be hard to find.\nBasically the Kundalini is seen as a serpent coiled at the base of the spine, where upon awakening it flows up the spine and out through the top of the head, thus transforming the student/victim and connecting their 'lower' energy to the 'upper' energy.\nOne of the most well-known examples of Kundalini is the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Even the simplest Kundalini neophyte can recognize the connecting and combining of the male and female energies (Adam and Eve) with the Kundalini (Serpent) and the \"Tree of Life\" (which bore the fruit of \"knowledge\") also seen as the spinal column.\nI'm sure everyone is familiar with the symbol of the medical profession, as represented by the twin serpents entwined around a staff with a knob on top.\nThis ancient symbol actually represents the 3 energy channels of the body, the Sushumna (represented by the staff and running up the middle of the body), the Ida (representing Lunar, Yin and feminine energy) and the Pingalla (representing male, solar and Yang energy). The Ida and Pingalla are seen as snakes entwined around the Sushumna.\nKundalini in Folklore\nAccording to Dr. Swami Gitananda Giri (http://www.echoedvoices.org/Aug2002/Chakra_Kundalini.html) the folk tales of Cinderella, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty are also illustrations of Kundalini Awakening with the Seven Dwarves seen as the seven chakras and Snow White as a representation of Shakti \"who under the good auspices of her kind stepmother, was awakened by Shiva. Shiva disguised as the \"prince\" who pushes his way through the tamasic brambles to discover her\".\nIt's interesting that symbols of something considered to be hidden and hard to access can actually be found all around us, all the time. An interesting metaphor for the Kundalini, don't you think?\nRobert Morgen is a Reiki Master who currently holds a Black Belt in Hoshin Roshi Ryu. He's the founder of the Kundalini Awakening Discussion Group, the Druids Circle Discussion Group and the (offline) Druids Circle in Lakewood, CO.

        "title": "Amazon\u2019s AutoRip Music Service",
        "raw_content": "Articles Entertainment Music Amazon\u2019s AutoRip Music Service\nAmazon\u2019s AutoRip Music Service\nAmazon is making sound waves today with rumors of the upcoming Amazon AutoRip service. Amazon\u2019s new music service will allow CD buyers to store digital tracks of purchased CDs in Amazon\u2019s cloud free of charge. This is the biggest news involving CD purchases to surface in years. While many companies largely view CDs as a dead form of entertainment, Amazon doesn\u2019t quite see things that way.\nHow Amazon AutoRip Will Work\nFirst, I should mention that the name \u201cAutoRip\u201d is just something that\u2019s been floating around Amazon\u2019s corporate offices. In all likelihood, this name will change once the service has been officially released. It has been stated by those close to Amazon\u2019s corporate office that the new music service may also include CDs that have been purchased in the past. This means that any CD you purchased from Amazon in the past will automatically be uploaded to Amazon\u2019s cloud. As mentioned, any CD purchased going forward will also be added to the cloud.\nOf course, Amazon is trying to get consumers to purchase more CDs from the massive content company, but Amazon might also be onto something here. While many music enthusiasts now download tracks instead of purchasing CDs, giving consumers the opportunity to purchase a CD and keep a digital track might be something that appeals to a lot of people. After all, being able to hold onto a physical copy of a CD while also having access to digital tracks is the best of both worlds. Amazon is not alone in this thinking, though.\nBringing CDs and DVDs Back\nThe record and movie industry has been working on getting people to purchase CDs and DVDs for some time now with the creation of a project called UltraViolet. While not wildly popular, UltraViolet is a movement, of sorts, to get movie watchers to abide by industry standards for watching and keeping movies in the cloud. Amazon is taking a much more consumer-friendly approach with AutoRip.\nAmazon\u2019s new CD venture is a good move for the company \u2013especially since many consumers still see a great deal of value in a hard copy CD. It\u2019s hard to give someone the gift of a digital track, but providing a gift recipient with a copy of a CD is still highly valued. If Amazon can find a way to allow people to gift a digital copy of a CD while sending someone a hard copy gift, this service can be pushed even further. Once a CDs tracks have been added to Amazon\u2019s cloud, those tracks can then be transferred to any device (such as an iPod or smartphone).\nAmazon hasn\u2019t made any official announcements yet, so it\u2019s hard to say whether or not the company\u2019s CD prices will change to reflect the new service. But, I\u2019m guessing that Amazon will keep costs low in order to compete with iTunes. If you think back a bit, you\u2019ll remember that Amazon\u2019s Jeff Bezos was once the kind of the music scene until iTunes took it all away.\nAdd to that the fact that rumors of \u201crenting\u201d downloaded tracks for a lifetime (instead of owning those tracks and having the ability to share music) have been circulating, and Amazon just may have its giant corporate finger on something exciting. Stay tuned for updates from Amazon.",

        "raw_content": "Articles Software Communications BitTorrent's Server-Less Messenging Service\nBitTorrent's Server-Less Messenging Service\nBitTorrent is working on a messaging client. What's the big deal? This messaging client will be server-less. That's right, BitTorrent's newest messaging client won't rely on any kind of server, so all messages sent through the client won't be traceable. See what the big deal is now?\nThe New BitTorrent Technology\nAll messages that will be sent through the new BitTorrent messaging system will be encrypted, but nothing will be stored on a server. For now, the company also plans to keep the new messaging client free and unlimited, but this may change in the future. Still, this is a messaging system that is the first of its kind, and it's also one that many people will definitely want to use give the recent happenings with the NSA.\nThere's just one thing, though: in order to sign up for the beta version of the new client, you have to provide BitTorrent with your email address. That means that the fact that you signed up for the service is, in fact, traceable. That fact aside, this client will prove to be useful to many, and it's not the first attempt at dodging authorities that has been made over the past week.\nIn Addition to McAfee\nJust yesterday, it was posted on this blog that John McAfee is devising a secure network that will be untraceable to authorities. Now, BitTorrent is heading in the same direction. What gives? Clearly, people want a way to communicate online that doesn't involve any kind of government tampering. It looks like a new niche market may be opening up when it comes to secure messaging and communicating through the Internet.\nIt would be nice, though, if BitTorrent could tell the press more about the new chat client. Right now, company reps have related to CNet that the client will use a decentralized angle to provide chatters with a secure way to send messages back and forth without the use or help of any service.\nBitTorrent will use methods similar to those used for the company's original peer-to-peer sharing service, if that gives you any idea of how this messaging system will work.\nIf you like the idea of a secure messaging service through BitTorrent (the company claims that it is secure, any way), you can sign up for the beta version of this through the BitTorrent site - do keep in mind that you have to sign up using your email account.\nWhether or not BitTorrent's messaging system is as secure as the company claims has yet to be seen. For now, we will have to trust what the company has said, or not use the client until more information can be provided.\nIn any case, it's really interesting to see various companies moving in the anti-NSA direction. The question now is: will the government shut down BitTorrent's new messaging service in addition to putting a cap on what McAfee is cooking up?\nWould you use this client? Does it look safe and secure, or are you wary?",

        "raw_content": "You are here: A&S Home / Meredith Jung-En Woo / At Tackle, Chester Pierce\n\u00ab The Desegregated Heart\nThe Quest for the Golden Fleece \u00bb\nThe last post of my blog, tracing the early days of racial integration on Grounds (\u201cThe Desegregrated Heart\u201d), sparked a number of fascinating recollections and discussions from our alumni. One was an exchange between two Psychology majors\u2014Tom Pettigrew \u201952 and Brawner Cates \u201967\u2014about the first integrated football team to play south of the Mason-Dixon Line, Scott Stadium, 1947. On April 15 of that year, Jackie Robinson played first base for the Brooklyn Dodgers against the Boston Braves. On October 11, Chester Pierce, an African-American, played tackle for Harvard against Virginia. It was the practice at that time for integrated college teams to leave their black players at home when they played in the South.\nThe trip to Virginia was not a pleasant one for Pierce. He was not allowed to stay in the same hotel with his white teammates; his pain was not assuaged when the University housed him in a nearby mansion. When he came to the team hotel for meals, he was not allowed to enter through the front door. In a show of solidarity, his teammates also entered through the kitchen. The night before the game, President Colgate W. Darden spoke at a pep rally attended by about 3,000: \u201cChester Pierce, a Negro, is a guest of the University of Virginia, and nothing would shame us more than having an unfortunate incident during the game.\u201d And nothing untoward took place\u2014except to Harvard: it lost to Virginia, 47-0. But history was made, and Pierce became the first black man to play football in the South against a white team\u2014and later, the first to play lacrosse against Maryland and Navy. Like Jim Brown, Pierce excelled at both football and lacrosse.\nBut unlike Jim Brown, he did not go into the NFL. Instead, Chet Pierce went on to become one of the most influential psychiatrists of our time. After Harvard College and Harvard Medical School, he served on three faculties there: Psychiatry, Public Health, and Education. His research examined the impact of extreme environments and racism on human psychology. He also wrote on sports medicine and the effect of the media on blacks and children. He was elected president of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.\nPierce never talked much about the 1947 Virginia game, or for that matter, about his role in integrating collegiate sports. \u201cI never talk about that,\u201d he told a Crimson reporter, standing not far from Mass General, which today houses the Pierce Global Psychiatry Division, \u201cI didn\u2019t do anything.\u201d He said in another interview that it was mere chance that he was a participant in that historic moment at Virginia; he was practically a bystander, he said, just watching things unfold before his eyes.\nChet Pierce\u2019s absence of triumphalism reflects his profound insight into the catastrophic problem of racism at all levels in our society. He showed how racism operates on both the macro (political and institutional) level and the micro level. He labeled the everyday insults that black people suffer \u201cmicro-aggressions,\u201d which he defined as the \u201csubtle, stunning, often automatic, and non-verbal exchanges which are \u2018put-downs\u2019 of the blacks by offenders.\u201d These put-downs, seemingly innocent, could slowly crush the human spirit under a devastating burden, leading to a lack of self-esteem and confidence, and eventually to shorter lives.\nIn the South, he saw de jure racism; in the North he saw de facto racism. He was careful to distinguish between these two distinct forms of racism, condoning neither. But he did see the de jure racism of the South as an institution in the throes of death, whether or not he had participated in its demise at Scott Stadium. Later in his life, he wrote that \u201cone must not look for the gross and obvious. The subtle, cumulative mini-assault is the substance of today\u2019s racism.\u201d\nAs an undergraduate at Harvard, Pierce never felt completely accepted. He had white roommates who were members of private clubs; the question of his becoming a member somehow never came up. In retrospect, he said, he regretted never being invited to join the Hasty Pudding Club\u2014the one membership he thought he fully deserved, given his facility with composition, piano, accordion, and trumpet. Still, he continued to have great respect for institutions like Harvard and even Hasty Pudding, always taking pains to explain the distinction between whites acting as individuals versus as members of a dominant collective. It was also a way for him to protect himself, and not be disappointed by the unthinking racism of his fellow students. He remained vigilant against people who, even unknowingly, wreaked psychological havoc on minorities, keeping a record of these incidents\u2014from the behavior of the bar owner in Cambridge who refused to let him in, to a professor at High Table in Lowell House who called out to him: \u201cYou, black man, where do you come from?\u201d\nSixty three years after Chet Pierce played in the first racially integrated football game at Virginia, much has changed\u2014for the better, and for the worse. The South has long since integrated, with the racial demography of the students at the University of Virginia looking not much different than that at Harvard. But if de jure racism is a thing of past, de facto racism is not\u2014just as Pierce feared. Micro-aggressions still confront every black person, but there are new macro trends that are also disturbing.\nVesla Weaver, Assistant Professor in Politics in the College, writes in an important book, Frontlash: Civil Rights, the Carceral State, and the Transformation of American Politics, that the era of Civil Rights coincides with a massive expansion of the American criminal justice system. In 1965 there were 780,000 adults under correctional authority of any type; by 2008, that population had exploded to seven million, more than the entire population of Virginia. The black rate of incarceration increased at an even faster rate\u2014four times the increase of whites. In 1974 2.2 percent of white males, 13.4 percent of black males, and 4.0 percent of Hispanic males could expect to go to prison during their lifetime. Today 33 percent of black men over 18 are under some type of criminal supervision. In her second book Professor Weaver argues that it is no longer simply a harsh social environment that leads to greater incarceration of black people, but, increasingly the other way round: the high rates of incarceration have huge negative impacts on the political incorporation and inequality of black families and neighborhoods.\nIn his work, Chet Pierce was interested in extreme environments\u2014both physical and psychological. He argued that, for psychological and physiological adjustment, it was much more difficult to be a ten-year old inhabitant of Harlem than to be a forty-year old astronaut in outer space; there was simply not enough societal support for that youngster in Harlem. He often observed that whites in power fail to consider the impact that their decisions have on black people, arguing that it was essential for black intellectuals to focus on black interests with clarity and sustained commitment\u2014something he did all his life.\nP.S.: That Harvard-Virginia game was a home game in more ways than one. Pierce\u2019s father was from Portsmouth.\nThis entry was posted on Monday, January 31st, 2011 at 10:50 am\tand is filed under Diversity, Higher Education.

Hunley, '63 (College), '73 (Ph. D.) says:\nThis is an excellent article that shows how far we still have to go to eradicate racism in the United States. As it happens, I went to a junior high and high school in Pleasantville, New Jersey, from 1954 to 1958. I had black friends and played football with them on a fully integrated team where they were welcomed. But de facto racism was evident in the lunchroom and in the private attitudes of many whites. For my senior year in high school (1958-59), I transferred to a small school on the Quantico Marine base in Virginia where my father worked. We had one black football player, and because of him, the coach had a very difficult time finding schools, almost all of them private, for the team to play in the Virginia of massive resistance. Of course, at the University there were as yet no blacks in attendance. We have come a long way since then, but the journey is not yet complete.\nJack Cowardin Coll '76 says:\nThis is a very fine essay. Some of the facts you include are dismaying, but making mention of them is very important. Thank you.\nStephen N. Doniger says:\nInteresting that President Darden felt it necessary to say that having an \u201cunfortunate incident\u201d take place at the game would not be good for the University.\nI enjoyed the article except that likening Jim Brown to Chet Pierce is truly \u201cunfortunate\u201d. Brown was a serial abuser of women and a racist.I knew him growing up and his athletic prowess is his only redeeming feature.\nS.Doniger\nJanis Rovner says:\nVery inspirational! It is so important for UVA, as the premier public university in the South, to continue to set an example for all other universities in taking responsibility for its past and providing a role model for the future. Thank you.\nDean Woo \u2013\nI enjoyed reading this piece. Very interesting!\nFranklin Jackson CLAS '83 says:\nThis is a thoughtful article that provides motivation for further study and dialogue. I appreciate Dr. Woo\u2019s approach to a subject that generates strong emotional reactions.\nThe micro-aggressions do serve as a constant source of stress for members of the non-dominant community. It is good to hear that there is some recognition of these phenomena. Hopefully, the type of discussion that is started here can continue and not just be a part of the recognition of Dr. King\u2019s holiday.\nMy hat is off to Dr. Woo for her insight and her willingness to go beyond where some may be comfortable.\nAdrienne Wichard says:\nThis is one of my favorite little-known stories about U.Va. football. You can see more about that pivotal game\u2013including archival photos of the players, commentary from U.Va. historians, and present-day interviews with both Chester Pierce\u2019s Harvard teammates and the Virginia players who welcomed Mr. Pierce to their field\u2013in the newly released documentary \u201cWahoowa: A History of Virginia Cavalier Football,\u201d a film by U.Va. alum Kevin Edds:\nhttp://www.uvafootballhistory.com/Wahoowa.html\nIt\u2019s stunning to uncover the ways that Virginia not only pioneered the breakdown of color barriers in the South, but also impacted the evolution of the sport as it\u2019s played today.\nEsther Adams (Ed '01) says:\nThank you so much for sharing this powerful piece of history and for discussing its continued importance and relevance today.\nBradford Young says:\nI take issue with part of your piece because it includes the kind of mindless assertion against which a high-end university should teach. Your storytelling is sweet, but then you add the unsupported line: \u201cBut if de jure racism is a thing of past, de facto racism is not\u2014just as Pierce feared. Micro-aggressions still confront every black person, but there are new macro trends that are also disturbing.\u201d\nNot every black person that meets me runs into \u201cmicro-aggressions.\u201d I was born, like you, well after the Brown decision in 1954. My father was a Freedom Rider, jailed in Jackson, MS, in August of 1961 for eating at a lunch counter with a black man. Understanding humanity through my Christian faith, I know a black man is at his core another fallen child of God carrying within him the dignity inherent in having been made in the image and likeness of God. If you cut him open, he bleeds red like me and you. Nothing about his blackness or my whiteness makes him better or worse than me. It is our characters that matter.\nHaving no sense of participating in white liberal guilt, I have seen the cost of government imposed minority set-asides. The men and women getting a leg up are not sure they earned their status, and the men and women seeing others getting a leg up for some external characteristic like the color of their skin question the validity of promotions obtained that way. A hand up freely given by one person to another is a noble form of affirmative action, but affirmative action imposed by the State ultimately fails to match the dignity of the human persons involved.\nI fail to see that you made a clear connection between the increase in crime and Civil Rights. The efforts by radicals to take AFDC and use it to destabilize the \u201csystem\u201d (see Cloward and Piven) had the pernicious effect of wrecking the black family structure. Read Dr. Walter E. Williams for more on that. Undomesticated men whose economic utility is linked to their fecundity will engage in socially destructive behavior and procreation. You may have data series which line up chronologically, but that does not equate to causality. The average height of an American male has increased since the passage of the Civil Rights Act; I doubt your professor would argue those data are linked, but she does link data that support her hypothesis.\nWe need rigor in analysis of cultural and political phenomena. The starting point should perhaps be a full self-analysis and disclosure of the analyst\u2019s perspective. I stated earlier I feel no guilt about racism because I grew up in a country where official racism was stopped. You carry the heritage of the institutionalized racism by Japanese toward Koreans, which I know to be closer to Nazi views of Jews than American views of Blacks. We also need to be careful about mislabeling: that people generally feel more comfortable with people like them is not an evil, it just is a reality. Judgment, as Dr. MLK, Jr., said in his 1963 speech, should be based on the content of a man\u2019s character rather than the color of his skin or some other external feature. The preference for soul food or country pop music or skull caps or ball caps is not indicative of a person\u2019s character, and we should celebrate the wide variety we enjoy in this country and tolerate others\u2019 preferences we do not share.\nThe school of Arts and Science has historically had a healthy helping of common sense about many of the mania that sweep across academia, and I have every confidence Virginia will not succumb to the foolishness of group identity cultural analysis that has corrupted so many formerly auspicious academic institutions in the U.S. Chet Pierce was correct to say he was not the central figure in his historic athletic event; Colgate Darden dared to break a color line and remind his peers of the standard of behavior to which they would be held. Mr. Pierce\u2019s bravery should not be ignored, but nothing would have happened if the old white guy had not been willing to stand up for his much younger, African-American, brother.\nAnthony Guy Lopez says:\nI do enjoy learning about the various \u201cfirsts\u201d in U.Va. history, thanks again Dean Woo for providing this discussion. What is especially helpful in this piece are the insightful theoretical analyses offered here that helps us to understand American racism as it is experienced through subtle \u201cmicro-aggressions\u201d yes, but also in terms of what U.Va. Prof. Vesla Weaver has identified in her analysis of the institutional aggressions represented by the disproportionate incarceration of African-Americans in the U.S. That such work is supported at U.Va. through its faculty and students is a credit to the institution. I just wish that U.Va. would provide a similar institutional support base for the work of American Indian scholars and the study of indigenous peoples in general. Not only does U.Va. have virtually no American Indian faculty members in its entire history, it also has no idea who the first American Indian graduates were. There seems to be no institutional memory of such things nor does there seem to be a will or plan to develop one. Many of our peer institutions have long since developed programs and departments that make it their mission to understand Indigenous Peoples\u2019 contributions and knowledges. What is it about U.Va. that its leadership and professors keep casting its history in terms of Black/White relations? At some point these oversimplified historical strictures become micro-aggressions that serve the continued marginalization of American Indian scholars and scholarship at U.Va. I would ask how much better would Vesla Weaver\u2019s work be presented if it were expressed not just in terms of the high incarceration rates of African-American people but also Hispanic and American Indian peoples? Certainly the rates of incarceration of federally recognized American Indians are very similar to that of African Americans, yet somehow, our explications of this work in a U.Va. environment glosses over the necessity of understanding why this is so. This is not the case in other learning environments where there are scholars employed who would turn and ask Prof. Weaver or Dean Woo the question of where in the American experience are the American Indian nations?\nPaul Larsen '70 says:\nDr. Woo,\nI enjoyed your article very much and was interested to find out more about Chester Pierce. I came across this quote said to be written by him in 1973.\nAs I have not been able to confirm that Dr. Pierce did indeed write this, nor have I been able to find where he wrote it, perhaps you could enlighten me on if this represented his beliefs at the time or if the passage is taken out of context.\nPaul Reavis says:\nThank you, Dr. Woo, for this very interesting account of just one very talented and multi-dimensional African American who passed this way during the turbulent years leading into the civil-rights movement. It\u2019s a privilege to read about this young man\u2019s experiences, his depth and character, and to understand that so many others had his common experience, whether they were scholar athletes or ditch diggers. One of the most important lessons for a Caucasian/Cherokee guy like myself is to realize the importance of being one of those who stepped forward to cross the social mores line and stand with Mr. Pierce against the racism of the era. It begs the importance of doing the same today against personal-level and group-affiliated and systemic racism as it exists in our everyday lives and local and national experience. Race-baiting in political rhetoric is now rampant, barely concealed beneath the surface, and backed by mammoth funding from the corporate world and the greediest segment of our wealthy populace. History is being made daily, and each of us has a place in this history whether we want to recognize it or not, and now-Dr. Pierce\u2019s story is a stark reminder that all isn\u2019t well these days, just as it wasn\u2019t in his day. Thanks for putting this stimulating article before us for our thought and reaction, Dr. Woo and UVA. -Paul Reavis, Classes of \u201968 and \u201981, UNC-Chapel Hill\nI am a black-Seminole Indian from America. I have a MS in Quality Assurance from the School of A&S and Industrial Engineering from San Jose State University. My daughter attends your school and I find two things that scare me about UVA. The high crime rate and the fact that students at UVA are limited to declaring their Majors of choice. The requirements for doing so sucks. Maybe blacks are part of that problem but I do not think so. In the world we now live in, we need not focus on race and Americanism, but how to educate the Scientist, Pilots, Doctors, Dentist, and Professionals of the future. Where we fall short is that instead of concentrating on that, we look at things that will never change or make a difference. No matter how many immigrants come to America, there is no law that says that I have to accept the fact that there is racial discrimination in every country that send those immigrants. During the Vietnam War I served with the Marines and when I first arrive in the Philippines with my white shipmates I were told that there was a white side of town and a black side of town, that has not changed. Educating the youngsters of today is the only way to make MLK dream becomes a reality in this world not just in America. We can continue to live side by side in America but not like each other as they do in Singapore. As stated, it continues because no one addresses the real problem that plague America and people of every race creed and color. (Ignorance).\nMeredith Woo says:\nThis is cited as coming from a keynote address to the Association for Childhood Education International (Denver, April 1972). I can\u2019t verify whether he actually said it. I inquired with people who know Pierce and they find it difficult to believe that he would have made a sweeping and odd statement like that, and that it would be out of character for him.\nJohn Rainey ed. '74 says:\nThe article was very interesting and informative. As UVA tried to catch up in the late 60\u2032s, it is noteworthy to say that 1970 was the first year that the school offered scholarships to African-Americans. John Rainey, Kent Merrit, Stanley Land and Harrison Davis pioneered the sticky waters of racism on both levels. However, you do not see a blimp on the radar because they were on a mission to not just play sports but to prove yet again that Blacks were very capable of achieving success in a predominately white controlled environment. Subtle racism was what we called it. Check it out.\nJoseph Maiolo says:\nU. Va. Grad. Arts & Sciences, 1968\n\u201cHarvard was the first integrated football team to play south of the Mason-Dixon Line, Scott Stadium, 1947,\u201d and Norton, Virginia\u2019s Little League baseball, in 1951, was the first in all of organized sports in the South to have integrated teams.\nIn 1951, a local businessman, Charles Litton, brought Little League to town. When tryouts were held, black boys from the \u201cSouthside\u201d came, and a few, without questions or problems, were selected. We played the regular season without racial incidents; and at the end of the season, when the All-Star team was chosen to play in the state playoffs, two of the black kids made the team. Norton\u2019s team was the only one in the southwest to Charlottesville; there were several Little League teams in Charlottesville and east.\nLittle League officials made the decision that there would be an east-west final game. Charlottesville won the Eastern title, and we in Norton, being the only team, were to play Charlottesville for the state championship\u2013in Charlottesville. But when the powers-that-were-then found out that we had two black players, they told Mr. Litton that the black boys could not play in Charlottesville. Apparently, politicians, including the governor, had their say as well: no black players would be allowed. Mr. Litton would not back down, and so the powers decided that Charlottesville would play us in Norton. (Charlottesville retained home team status.)\nWe had a professional baseball diamond in town that summer, and it was a great day, a great game\u2013for us. We won, 12-3.\nNorton supporters chartered an airplane to fly us to Fairmont, West Virginia, for the regional playoff game; and when we arrived at the hotel where we had reservations and the owner saw our two black players, we were turned away. We finally found a church whose minister had cots put up for us that night. . .and Fairmont sheallacked us the next day.\nMaceo Willis says:\nThank you, Dr. Woo for this historical piece. I also would like to say \u2018good points\u2019 to Mr. Hunley, although I advise you to check Google or UVA records to find one of your classmates (and my father) A. Leroy Willis (CLAS \u201962), the first African American to live on The Lawn and to graduate from the UVA College of Arts and Sciences. James Meredith usually gets most of the credit for integrating Southern universities, but he entered University of Mississippi in 1963. FYI, my twin sister Nia and I were the first Black \u2018Legacy\u2019 students to graduate (CLAS \u201993).",

        "title": "Decision in Folsom Chevrolet case is a win for all dealers | Scali Rasmussen",
        "raw_content": "Decision in Folsom Chevrolet case is a win for all dealers\nThis article, by Halbert Rasmussen, was originally published in Automotive Buy Sell Report, on September 12, 2018.\nOur successful challenge to General Motors\u2019 attempt to terminate a dealer based on performance metrics may have reverberations for dealers throughout the country who are frustrated by automakers\u2019 methods of measuring dealer success.\nFacing possible termination of its franchise, our client Folsom (Calif.) Chevrolet on Aug. 13 won the support of the New Motor Vehicle Board of the State of California, which agreed with our argument that metrics such as the Retail Sales Index are not only flawed but a violation of the state\u2019s vehicle code.\nThe board\u2019s decision follows a similar finding in New York, in which Yonkers dealership Beck Chevrolet successfully challenged manufacturers\u2019 reliance on statewide sales metrics that failed account for regional variations.\nTogether, the two outcomes put dealers nationwide on very strong footing to challenge auto manufacturers\u2019 dealer performance metrics.\nFolsom Chevrolet\u2019s main argument, echoed by many other dealers, is that the Retail Sales Index, commonly known as \u201cRSI,\u201d and similar \u201csales efficiency\u201d metrics fail to account for a number of market circumstances, including brand preference, geography and demographics.\nOne of RSI\u2019s many deficiencies is that it looks at dealership performance against a state average, rather than comparing to a more local base \u2013 particularly problematic in a state as large and diverse as California.\nThe demographics of the state\u2019s more rural areas are very different than what one would find by calculating California\u2019s statewide average including large metropolitan areas like Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay area and Silicon Valley.\nThough a decision by California\u2019s Motor Vehicle Board, an administrative agency, does not have the force of binding precedent that a published appellate court decision holds, the Folsom case\u2019s outcome clearly indicates the board\u2019s perspective and how it\u2019s inclined to perceive future sales metrics matters.\nIn other words, the decision is not binding precedent from a legal standpoint, but from a practical standpoint it is highly informative. It\u2019s hard to read the tea leaves, but an appeal by GM isn\u2019t out of the question. However, for the automaker, that would be a risky strategy that could backfire.\nA petition for review would have to be filed not with the board, but in Superior Court. Once that happens, you\u2019re in the court system, and things have more precedential value. If the court\u2019s decision doesn\u2019t go GM\u2019s way, you have legal precedent, and a big domino will have fallen. GM would be wise to consider this risk.\nThough Folsom is a California decision and Beck was in New York, the pair operate like high-powered bookends that can influence boards in other states.\nIf GM decides against (or loses) an appeal, their next move will likely be to consider possible changes to sales metrics they think will pass muster. But there\u2019s no process for dealers to weigh in on what shape new performance metrics would take \u2013 only one to challenge those already put in place, which likely means a long process of trial and error.\nThe problem isn\u2019t just that the baseline used to measure dealers (i.e., state-wide average) is too broad, but also how manufacturers assign the area a dealer is responsible for, and how they expect a dealer to compete in a crowded metropolitan market.\nDealers may see other benefits from this decision. For example, the next challenge on the horizon may be to the impact of sales efficiency metrics on incentives, rewards, or punitive actions that some automakers dole out to dealers.",

We can usually determine gender between 16 and 17 weeks during a 2D sonogram. This is a great time to see the baby kick and turn to see if you\u2019re going to have a future soccer player or gymnast!\nWe ask all expectant mothers who come in for a 2D ultrasound to have a full bladder.\nA 3D ultrasound can be obtained at any time during pregnancy. However, the optimal time to have a 3D Ultrasound is between 26 and 32 weeks. Closer to 32 weeks allows us to get face pictures that show chubby cheeks, hair and even thumb-sucking! Earlier pregnancy ultrasounds allow mothers to see more complete images of their babies. Remember that all images are dependent upon the baby\u2019s position, movement, size and the amount of surrounding amniotic fluid.\nA 4D Ultrasound (or 4D Live Motion Imaging) obtains 3D images in real time so you can see your baby moving in 3D. A 4D shows us live-action images of your baby \u2013 think of this as your baby\u2019s first video appearance!\nCheck out our tips and tricks for the best possible ultrasounds under Patient Forms.

        "title": "You Don't Eat Enough - Ben Hunt",
        "raw_content": "> You Don\u2019t Eat Enough\nIf our hunter-gatherer ancestors were perfectly healthy (until they got killed by something with scary teeth), and we, with all our books and Internet and technology and labelling, can\u2019t manage it, where did we go wrong and \u2013 more importantly \u2013 how can we put it right?\nSo I want to share an idea with you that could help simplify the whole thing.\nHere\u2019s my idea\u2026\n\u201cYou and I don\u2019t eat enough!\u201d\nOkay, let me be more specific:\nMost of us eat far too much stuff, but not enough different stuff.\nI think millions of years of evolution created a world that\u2019s an incredibly intricate web of food systems. That\u2019s basically what life does: eat. Eating gives you energy so that you can move around, escape being eaten for as long as possible, and hopefully reproduce (so that your genetic profile can continue even if you do get eaten). And practically everything is food for something, even rocks! They\u2019ve even discovered a bacterium that can get its energy from pure electrons (unless I dreamt it) (nope).\nAnd somewhere in this enormous web of food, there\u2019s everything that everything needs to thrive. Stands to reason, otherwise we wouldn\u2019t have all the life that (until quite recently) has flourished from pole to pole. That includes us, the naked ape. Me, you, your Aunt Maureen.\nWhat\u2019s more, all this stuff that we need to thrive occurs naturally. It is literally all around us. It\u2019s outside your front door. But, for a few interesting reasons, we have unlearned what it is, how to identify it, when we can eat it, and why.\nRecent research reports that people living in isolated, poorer, rural communities in the British Isles in the nineteenth-century had the healthiest diets due to eating a greater variety of locally-produced food.\nOur eating is fucked.\nYou didn\u2019t fuck it. I didn\u2019t fuck it. It was fucked for us, and the fucking has been going on solidly for a few generations now.\nPerhaps if we can figure out how it got so fucked, we might be able to unfuck it?\nThere are a million theories we could play with here, but let\u2019s just start with two public enemies: reductionism and capitalism.\nVery simply, reductionism is the idea that came out the Enlightenment in the 18th Century, which says that it helps to break things down into simpler things that make more sense. Stop messing around with arcane rituals and moon calendars. No, the way to get progress is to compartmentalise, classify, and control.\nNow, reductionism has led to wonderful advances in science, at least up to the point where things get really weird and complex again and scientists have had to come up with new ways of thinking (e.g. chaos theory, string theory, and quantum physics). Because simplification has its limits.\nThink of reductionism as forcing the world to fit into a simple model.\nEvery model is wrong. Some models are useful. ~ George Box, 1976\nThe simple model may work, as long as it works. But the model is not truth, it\u2019s just a model.\nLet\u2019s look at food and farming. About twenty thousand years ago (maybe) we figured out we could plough the land by attaching a stick to a pig or an ox. And ploughing the land simplified things. Instead of a plethora of \u201cweeds\u201d we could start over with nice, fresh soil. That meant we could plant the seeds for the crop we wanted, and then remove anything else that grew up around it.\nThat worked great, for a while, until civilisation after civilisation destroyed the topsoil and collapsed \u2013 literally, that\u2019s what happens. Our Western civilisation is on the exact same trajectory, by the way.\nWhen we reduce food, we might take a model like, \u201cHow many calories can we grow per acre?\u201d Good model, you might say. And sure, it works, but only within the scope of the model. Taking that approach, we end up growing genetically-modified corn that we periodically spray with pesticides and feed with artificial fertilisers. And lo and behold! Corn grows, year after year, producing calories (which is what we said we wanted). So we win! But only in terms of calories per acre, not necessarily in terms of nourishment or sustainability.\nWe\u2019ve also applied reductionism to food. Pretty soon our larders contained the staples we needed: flour, sugar, salt, butter, eggs, cocoa\u2026 which we could use to make pancakes, pastries, cakes, Yorkshire pudding, chocolate fondants and souffl\u00e9s.\nThen industry took it further. They now make \u201ceating material\u201d (I can\u2019t in honesty call it food) out of a relatively small number of ingredients, which in themselves are often not natural food for human beings.\nWhen you and I eat a typical Western diet, we are eating a small number of things that aren\u2019t really food themselves. We are not eating enough!\nHere\u2019s the list of ingredients from a typical \u201ceating material\u201d you can buy in the UK: Super Noodles (source).\nThe game is to identify which of these items you can say\u2026\nWhere in the natural world you might go to find it\nNoodles (Water, Wheat Flour (with Added Calcium, Iron, Niacin, Thiamin), Palm Oil, Antioxidants (Butylated Hydroxyanisole, Citric Acid, Propyl Gallate)), Yeast Extract, Sugar, Flavour Enhancers (Monosodium Glutamate, Disodium 5\u2032-Ribonucleotides), Flavouring, Onion, Potassium Chloride, Salt, Maltodextrin, Garlic, Ground Turmeric, Acids (Citric Acid, Malic Acid, Lactic Acid), Acidity Regulator (Sodium Diacetate), Parsley, Rapeseed Oil, Black Pepper Extract, Celery, Wheat Flour, Milk Protein.\nHow many did you get? Close to half? If so, that means over half the ingredients you\u2019re putting in your body are mysteries. You don\u2019t even know what they are or where they\u2019re from. They probably came out of a factory (but what went into the factory???)\nWhat\u2019s more, although it may seem like you\u2019re getting a variety of different things, you could pull a hundred processed products off the shelves and you\u2019ll find the same chemicals and frankengredients on the labels again and again and again.\nDid you know, for example, that an estimated 74% of ALL items on U.S. supermarket shelves have added SUGAR?!\nSo we\u2019re not really eating food, and the various forms of food-replacement eating material we buy contain different formulations of the same freaky shit.\nWhy don\u2019t we get better food? Reductionism is one answer. Products are expected to be consistent, to survive extensive transportation, to have a long shelf-life, and yet should trigger certain buttons to give you the impression you\u2019re being nourished (hence the prevalence of sugar, salt, and monosodium glutamate).\nSo the people who manufacture this stuff need ingredients that are the same every\u2026 single\u2026 fucking\u2026 time\u2026 Carrots and cows and truly natural things aren\u2019t always the same, no two home-baked loaves are the same, so we reduce it down to industrial recipes of standardised ingredients that will always produce an identical result.\nIt gets even scarier when you realise how many of the ingredients derive from just a few of the same plants, particularly corn. And that\u2019s corn that has been grown in an unsustainable way for decades, tricked into growing big by artificial nitrogen fertilisers, but growing in soil that contains less and less organic matter and minerals every harvest.\nThere is a school of thought that says most diseases in the West are a result of mineral deficiencies. So we\u2019re eating more and more, but we\u2019re getting less and less nourishment. Maybe the reason we eat more and more is because our bodies are trying to tell us that they\u2019re not getting enough of what they need, and no, more Mountain Dew isn\u2019t going to cut it!\nAnd there\u2019s another baddie lurking here, reductionism\u2019s economic partner in slime\u2026\nCapitalism is a way or organising the world such that people earn money not from what they do, or what they contribute, but by virtue of what they already own. You might call it the rent economy.\nI\u2019m not going to discuss the rights and wrongs of different systems. It is the dominant system we\u2019ve got. But how does it relate to food, and how does it fuck over our ability to get good nutrition?\nThere\u2019s one very simple answer. In a capitalist system, you want to use the same thing to get as much return as possible. So, instead of trading finite physical things (like potatoes, sheep, or hand-carved spoons), the idea is to scale up to the point that some aspect of what you own can be sold many times over.\nThat naturally leads to selling intellectual property \u2013 things like\u2026\nFranchise models, which will sell and rent you the right to use their brand and business process manual.\nMonsanto owning the DNA code of GMO soy or wheat, and contracts that forbid farmers from saving seed to the following year, which means they are forced to buy more seed every season.\nBrands licensing their logos for use on lunch boxes, caps, pencils\u2026 everything!\nOf course, people all need to eat, and repeatedly. So it\u2019s a huge market, probably the biggest market there is. But how can you, as a capitalist, own that market? You need a product that is not only repeatable on an industrial scale, but whose design you can patent and protect.\nYou cannot own an apple. You cannot own a heritage breed of pig. You cannot own a species of sea fish. You cannot own a naturally-occurring herb.\nBut you can legally protect something that you\u2019ve made to a unique design, like an Oreo cookie. But in order to make that new thing, it must be constructed out of constituent parts. It is literally artificial.\nSo guess what, the shelves of your local supermarket are not filled with recognisable food. Instead, we\u2019re given brands. And the little brands are (sooner or later) owned by big brands. Just check out the map of food brands on Oxfam\u2019s \u201cIllusion of Choice\u201d infographic.\nVia Oxafm: https://firstperson.oxfamamerica.org/2013/03/10-everyday-food-brands-and-the-few-giant-companies-that-own-them/\nSo because truly natural things can\u2019t be owned outright, for the past few generations we have been weaned off them, and the process continues.\nSo we end up buying a large range of brands, under the illusion that we have choice as consumers, when in reality we\u2019re handing over our money to the same few mega-corporations for the same few bullshit ingredients presented in a range of interesting recipes and brightly-coloured plastic packaging. Really, how much choice do we have?\nI reckon the best experiment any of us can do is to try going for one week without consuming any branded food. Only things that you have purchased: recognisable, real food and drink. Nothing that comes out of a packet with a logo on! Of course there\u2019s nothing wrong per se with branded food, particularly if it\u2019s a brand you really know and really trust (not just because of their advertising).\nThe way back to sanity is to restore the way we used to eat, more aligned with Nature. Here are some ideas.\nGrow your own. Start with windowsill herbs or potatoes.\nCover your lawn with cardboard and compost and make it work for you, growing real food.\nPlant fruit and nut trees.\nKeep chickens or ducks. (There\u2019s nothing that compares to fresh free-range eggs.)\nLearn to forage. It\u2019s great fun, gets you outside, and gets your big brain working on questions that really matter, reconnecting you to the source of all life \u2013 your food. There\u2019s a theory that one of the reasons we started to develop such powerful brains is, as omnivores, we had to be able to identify a wide range of foods that were safe or unsafe.\nGet into natural herbal remedies. You can cure a lot of things with stuff that grows wild (of course, no advertisement will tell you that, you know why!)\nCOOK! This is a really useful step in avoiding processed food. Cook meals, even simple ones, using ingredients you can recognise as something that once grew: fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, meat, fish, herbs, spices, maybe some grains and a little dairy. (If my wife and I ever get a takeaway or eat out most places, we go away feeling unwell, probably because we\u2019ve consumed artificial ingredients.)\nOverall, take it step by step, adding one thing at a time and discover the satisfaction of consuming something that you harvested yourself for free.\nEventually, perhaps we could all get back to the point of eating a thousand different, real, seasonal foods that fulfil Nature\u2019s plan to give us everything we need, when we need it, not a few dozen variants of high-fructose corn slop.\nWe need to eat more things, more different, real things. I suggest that\u2019s the simple way to health and happiness.\nThere are thousands of Facebook groups for growing your own food, foraging, hunting, poultry keeping, preparing and preserving food. We are not alone. We have a long way to go. So let\u2019s start now and do this together!",

        "title": "The Big Takeover: Jordan Blum\u2019s Top Ten \u2014 June 15",
        "raw_content": "Jordan Blum: June 15, 2014\nAnathema \u2013 distant satellites (Kscope)\nThis Liverpool sextet has long stood as theexample of how to combine gorgeous melodies, poignant lyrics, powerful harmonies, and inventive production into beautiful yet devastating commentaries on love, loss, and life. \u2018distant satellites\u2019 is yet another such benchmark, proving that Anathema is as important, passionate, and poetic as ever. It\u2019s easily one of the best releases so far this year.\nCasualties of Cool \u2013 Casualties of Cool (HevyDevy)\nAn official side project of eccentric musical genius Devin Townsend and female vocalist Ch\u00e9 Aimee Dorval, Casualties of Cool is billed as a spacey concept album dominated by a country/blues rock aesthetic. Really, though, it feels like classic mellow Townsend, with his trademark \u201cwall-of-sound\u201d production techniques and penchant for charming and catchy melodies bursting through on just about every track. It\u2019s definitely a sonic sibling to Ki, Ocean Machine, and Ghost.\nCosmograf \u2013 Capacitor (Cosmograf Music)\nThe newest release from progressive rock titan Cosmograf (led by multi-instrumentalist Robin Armstrong), Capacitor is a concept album that explores \u201c[the] storage of the human spirit, and how the imprint of our lives is left behind both in a spiritual and technological sense.\u201d Featuring guest appearances from Nck D\u2019Virgilio, Colin Edwin, Nick Beggs, and Andy Tillison (among others), the record is a wonderful journey that evokes elements of classic IQ, Marillion, Porcupine Tree, Muse, and Pink Floyd.\nDiablo Swing Orchestra \u2013 Pandora\u2019s Pi\u00f1ata (Candlelight Records)\nArguably the most dynamic feature on this list, Pandora\u2019s Pi\u00f1ata is an incredibly diverse, dynamic, and peculiar collection of songs. As the name may suggest, Diablo Swing Orchestra combines big band instrumentation with progressive metal foundations, all the while offering operatic male/female vocals and colorful effects. Fans of Devin Townsend, Oingo Boingo, and even Renaissance will find plenty to enjoy.\nKate Bush \u2013 Aerial (Columbia)\nEver since she was discovered by David Gilmour in the late 70s, English singer/pianist Kate Bush has demonstrated unparalleled innovation, uniqueness, and influence in the music industry. No one composes and performs quite like her (although Tori Amos is a clear prot\u00e9g\u00e9), and her eighth studio LP, Aerial, is a fantastic example of this. Broken into two discs (\u201cA Sea of Honey\u201d and \u201cA Sky of Honey\u201d), the album includes several idiosyncratic gems, including \u201cKing of the Mountain,\u201d \u201cPi,\u201d and \u201cHow to Be Invisible,\u201d as well as the 42 minute suite, \u201cAn Endless Sky of Honey.\u201d Bush easily has one of the most interesting discographies in pop music, and Aerial is simply my favorite one.\nThis sophomore effort from the British progressive metal troupe is most notable for its two main changes: it features a new vocalist, Ashe O\u2019Hara, and it\u2019s the first to contain only clean vocals. Aside from that, the album (which is broken into several suites) is more melodic and sparse than your average genre recording; it even incorporates trumpets near the end, which is awesome. If you\u2019re looking for an emphasis on melody over virtuosity, definitely check it out.\nFeliz Lucia Monlina, Ben Segal, and Brett Zehner \u2013 The Wes Letters (Outpost19, 2014)\nFew modern filmmakers have a style as unique and meticulously crafted as Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums, The Grand Budapest Hotel). Naturally, such an auteur can spark a fanatically inquisitive and dedicated following, which is where The Wes Letters comes in. Essentially it\u2019s a collection of messages from three friends to Anderson, and it\u2019s most fascinating because it simultaneously feels like a series of harmless, real letters to Anderson and like a fictional narrative about obsession, delusion, and zany competition. Either way, it\u2019s easy to get lost in it.\nLouie (Wednesday, FX)\nLouis C.K. is easily one of the most irreverent, witty, and bold comedians of our generation; however, his most popular creation yet, Louie, proves that he\u2019s so much more than that. As the writer, director, and star of the show, C.K. provides audiences with a hilarious yet poignant and revealing series in which he portrays a skewed version of his real life. What makes it so unique and great is its fearless approach to social commentary, artistic cinematography, and occasional disregard for continuity and logic. Really, Louie feels very much like a highly earnest and imaginative synthesis of Curb Your Enthusiasm and Annie Hall.\nPeep Show (Netflix)\nMany people find that British humor is second to none, and with innovative modern classics like Peep Show, it\u2019s hard to disagree. Created, written, and starring comedy duo David Mitchell (Mark) and Robert Webb (Jeremy), the show takes the Odd Couple dynamic of juxtaposing two roommates to its limit. Mark is a neurotic office worker who\u2019s obsessed with history and self-loathing, while Jeremy is a carefree \u201cmusician\u201d whose narcissism often gets him in trouble. As formulaic as it may sound, Peep Show stands out due to its acting, complex writing, and P.O.V. gimmick (every shot is shown through the eyes of a character). Trust me, it\u2019s mature, clever, and very funny.\nGame of Thrones (Sunday, HBO)\nI suppose this one needs no explanation, but just in case you\u2019ve been living under a rock (ha-ha, I kid), Game of Thrones is a lot like an R rated take on the Lord of the Rings films. Its phenomenal writing and direction allow its characters, drama, twists, and bleak humor to shine, and the way it balances its multiple storylines is commendable. Every element of the show is top quality; just be prepared for rampant adult content, including profanity, violence, nudity, sex, incest, and even infanticide.\nMatt Lee\u2019s Top Ten \u2014 June 15",

        "raw_content": "I had forgotten just how brilliant this Onion article was. Also, speaking of brilliance, I need to link the latest Penny Arcade just for posterity's sake. Tycho's associated rant on Wikipedia is pretty good as well.\nNaomi Watts is pretty\nI fucking hate Peter Jackson, that fat sweaty mongoloid. As per usual, we've been over this before, but shit like this bears repeating. You know exactly what Jackson thinks of himself and his moviemaking ability just based on how fucking long his films are. He also thinks that if a film is three hours long, it's automatically epic and important.\nSo I obviously saw King Kong just recently. As per usual, this is more a bunch of general musings and a loose synopsis. I don't really give away any major plot points, unless if you count giving away the end. But if you don't know how this movie ends already, you don't know anything. Anyway, you've been warned. If you're a weenie (like me) who doesn't like anything being given away in advance lest it be totally ruined, just revisit this after you've seen the movie if you were really planning to.\nAs a prelude to this, I have not seen the original film (although I know some of the very basic elements of it), so as I was watching the movie I didn't know how well Jackson's version followed the original. Just so you don't think you're clever, I learned after watching the movie what the original was like and hence that a lot of these comments aren't quite valid; most of what follows are the thoughts I had as I was watching the film. You can't get it any more raw than this unless if you were there with me, and you weren't.\nOne thing I kept thinking was that Jackson couldn't make up his mind as to what film he wanted to do. Not that this is an excuse for it's length; he would have made it long no matter what. But you know how Hot Shots billed itself as \"the mother of all movies\" because it ripped on so many things? Well, I think Hot Shots has lost that title because Kong has surely taken it. Of course, whereas Hot Shots was ripping on other films, Kong is ripping from other films.\nThe movie starts out as a depression-era period piece on struggling Vaudeville and Broadway actors. Then it turns into a National Geographic special on freaky-ass African tribes (way beyond plates in their lips and FUCKED UP afros). Then it's Jurassic Park. Then it's a movie about Jane Goodall. Finally, after about four days of film (does this guy even do any editing?), Jackson decides what kind of film he wants to make: one about hot, hot woman-on-gigantic-ape action.\nApe, gorilla, whatever.\nBefore I continue, I was not aware of the nine-minute anal rape scene before watching this movie. And don't give me any shit; Naomi Watts may have said \"yes,\" but once a 50-foot gorilla starts putting it in, it's fucking rape.\nRape aside though, Jackson does do one thing right, and that's make a powerful commentary on human-gorilla romantic and sexual relations. Just when you're getting to the good stuff (at least for one party), the fucking government steps in and starts shooting at you and blowing shit up. Bastards.\nAgain, as I said, I know now that the phases that the film went through were in parallel with the original King Kong. So you could say instead that the creators of the original were the ones who pre-emptively ripped off everything that I mentioned. But with how excessive Jackson is with everything, and how horribly he draws everything out, a lot of the thoughts are still applicable even if it's holding true to the original. Take for instance all of the dinosaur shit. Look, Peter, we've been there, we've done that. If you're gonna keep that in there, fine -- but we don't need that fucking much of it. I know this bit of advice, which is applicable to EVERYTHING YOU DO, is falling on deaf ears. Ears, of course, that went deaf from all that \"cha-ching!\" he's been hearing these past few years.\nYeah, excessive. There were so many times where I was thinking to myself \"Okay, that's enough. I'm sick of this.\" We don't need another dinosaur fight. We don't need this one to start at the top of the cliff, then move down to the vines between the cliffs for another hour, then complete about a day later down at the bottom. Stop that!\nOh, and we get it -- scary creatures! Once they're exploring the island every fucking moment of this movie is dedicated to what creepy creature they're going to run into next that will give them problems. I know that this is a remote island filled with strange things, but I've gotta think that even the most infested places have a couple of spots that are unpopulated by something that wants to kill you. But no, not on Jackson's vision of Skull Island. We've got an effects budget, and fuck if we're not going to blow through all of it. Nevermind developing characters or story or anything, if there's always some kind of chaos, that makes a movie good.\nSpeaking of chaos, there are a lot of stylistic things that Jackson does that piss me off. Well, at least this is what Jackson is passing off as \"style.\" One of the things I hated the most about the Lord of the Rings movies were the battle scenes. They were so hectic with so much shit going on that you couldn't follow what the hell was going on. Yes, I know, real battles can be like that, but it doesn't make for a good scene. But anyway, he follows this same bad pattern in Kong with some of the action sequences, so I continue to hate him for it. I paid to see this shit (well, today I didn't, but still), so I'd like to follow what's happening. Really, though, they could have just replaced some scenes in LOTR and Kong with some totally random shit being strewn about, and it would have been all the same.\nAnother thing, Peter: slow-motion does not automatically make something really dramatic or poignant. Don't do it if you don't need to, and rarely if ever did you need to in Kong. Oh, and don't have characters whispering stuff to each other that the audience can't hear if you're going to reveal what they're talking about six seconds later (the revelation coming in slow-mo, of course). That could be a good device to set up some suspense, but this wasn't something that was really suspenseful to begin with, and you fucked it up anyway by telling us the secret immediately.\nThe biggest element of Jackson's \"style\" that I hate, of course, is \"long and drawn out.\" But of course, when I actually want him to explain something, when I really want him to go deeper, he doesn't. Riddle me this, fat man: once Kong is sedated, how the fuck did they get him back to New York? That wasn't exactly a big boat that they had. And I'm only guessing that they were able to keep him sedated on the way back, as well as once he was in New York, but we'll never know. I really shouldn't complain about this, though; had he covered these things I wouldn't be here right now to type this because I'd either still be in the theater or I would have slit my wrists already.\nA comment on the special effects needs to be made. Some of them? Weren't that special. There were a lot that I was looking at, and I'm like, that's fake. I mean, I know it's fake, but when you're spending that kind of jack for FX, it's usually a bit more convincing. A lot of the FX were good, but at those prices (I don't know the exact figure, but it doesn't take a genius to know that they were high), they should all be good. There were a few other things that I can think of off the top of my head that were bullshit. After Kong falls to his death, from the top of the Empire State building, his lifeless body is surprisingly well intact on the street below. And then there's one point where Adrien Brody is flying around Manhattan in what I'm guessing is a Ford Model A, but he's outrunning Kong and maneuvering it like it's my car. No. Oh, and I'm no behavioral expert when it comes to dinosaurs, but I'm guessing that their reactions and motions during fighting aren't going to be just like humans. Or at least, that's how it came across to me. But at least one T-Rex no longer needs his Reach toothbrush now that he has a flip-top head.\nThroughout the movie, there were three trains of thought that I was constantly on:\nWhere's my jacket I wanna leave. I've been at this movie six years; I want to see other movies.\nWhen are they gonna get to the part where he climbs the Empire State building?\nHoly Christ Naomi Watts is hot.\nSo yeah, there's a second thing that he got right -- he at least had the decency to cast someone stunningly gorgeous for us to be looking at. Granted, there was no scene where we get to see her masturbate and it's not so much hot as depressing, but it was still a good call. For the better part of the film she's in a nightie and robe, running around barefoot. That was pretty nice. And I guess if I had to find a third thing that I liked, using the old-school graphics and fonts in the opening and closing credits was a nice homage to the original film. Thinking about it, though, with how long Jackson's Kong is, I wouldn't be surprised if he started it at the same time as the people who made the original in 1933.\nOne more thing I liked about seeing Kong was something that the makers of Kong had nothing to do with. I saw a preview for a movie coming out next year with Denzel Washington and total bad-ass Clive Owen called Inside Man (I believe). Movie previews and commercials are the most god-awful fucking things, but at least for once I got something useful out of all that nonsense.\nThe thing is, Jackson's King Kong wasn't a horrid movie. It would have been decently good if it wasn't so goddamn long and another crucial part of Jackson's Master Self Aggrandizement Plan. Dude, hit the cutting room from time to time, and I hopefully won't be complaining as much. Or at least, I can get out of the theater before cockroaches are extinct. An hour-and-a-half, and this movie would have been pretty solid. Over three hours, it's Peter Jackson, and we know what that means to me.\nOkay, so let's do the list:\nStyle points, drawing things out: -100\nStyle points, exaggerating everything: -50 (I'm feeling generous)\nOther excesses: -10\nPeter Jackson: -1000\nJack Black, who I've never particularly liked: -5\nJack Black, being somewhat tolerable despite above: +1\nNaomi Watts: +100 (god, she's hot)\nGerman guns: +1\nSlow-mo: -1\nAll that money on effects, and you give me this weak-ass shit?: -5\nMisc. Bullshit: -10\nInside Man preview: +1\nOne point detracted for every minute of the film: -187\nSo we have a total of... -1265. That's the worst I've ever rated anything, and it was pretty much all on the weakness of Peter Jackson. Take him out of the equation (making sure to do it Speed style by fucking killing him), and this movie fares much, much better.\nEarlier tonight I saw a rugby game for XBox. And I was like, that's kinda cool. But is there anything out for Aussie Rules Football? I'm not sure if there's anything for modern consoles, but they at least had a game for the oridinal NES.\nThe coolest AFL team has gotta be the Melbourne Demons (although the Essendon Bombers have a cool name and logo, too). When ETP and I made a failed attempt to follow Aussie rules football footy back in our freshman year, I had initially picked another club as my team, but eventually had to go with the Demons since that mascot is BA (I shortened it). Of course, it's hard to \"follow\" a sport that is rarely if ever broadcast over here, but that's because everything sucks in America.\nHey, Paizanos!\nOne of the great things about growing up is revisiting things you enjoyed as a kid and realizing how bad they sucked. ETP and BOETP got me the DVD set of The Legend of Zelda cartoons that ran on Fridays as part of The Super Mario Brothers Super Show circa 1989. Now, Zelda has held up pretty well. Yeah, Link is a choad. Yeah, Zelda is a cunt. Yeah, a lot of the jokes are really fucking stupid. But it's still pretty watchable and entertaining.\nIncluded in the Zelda set is a handful of TSMBSS live action clips. For anyone who watched this, you know what the show was about -- there were the cartoons (both Super Mario Brothers and Zelda) as well as short live-action skits intermixed in each episode. The live-action portions starred the late Captain Lou Albano as Mario and some other guy as Luigi. And holy fucking Christ were those live-action portions horrible. I mean, you spend a day having the shits, and it's not so bad when compared to this. As if that wasn't bad enough, the closing credits for the show have Captain Lou encouraging you to \"do the Mario!\" as he does what I will loosely call \"a dance.\" Upon seeing this for the first time in sixteen years, I was like, wow, I think Captain Lou Albano died of embarrassment.\nLooking at his IMDB profile and searching around on the web, Captain Lou isn't dead after all. But seriously, the live-action stuff from TSMBSS is just awful. It's so bad that I feel embarrassed and uncomfortable just from watching it.\nOne problem I think I have in writing this blog nowadays is that I feel like I have to have desensitized people to talking about a lot of fucked up shit. Or if nothing else, many things just have a \"been there, done that\" feel to them. For long-timers, of course -- newbies are always at risk to be totally turned off by this shit. I bring up things from the Holy Trinity of Things that Make People Sick -- bestiality, incest, and pedophilia -- seemingly as much as I can because it's amusing to a sick fuck like me to bring up things that bother other people. I could just be projecting since, at least conceptually (although not necessarily in real-life practice) I'm desensitized to these things. I mean, it's gotta bother a lot of people no matter what when I bring up being attracted to an 11-year-old girl because she has good stuff. Now, if you know baseball you understand the double entendre, but it is a double entendre since we've been down both routes. And you're still not too comfortable with people fucking horses, right? I hope not, because that's what the rest of this post is about.\nAnyway, as we were watching Zelda, horsefucking came up. In case you're wondering how this came up (because you wouldn't expect it with me), there was a point where we find out that Link's horse is named Catherine. And I had to ask, \"Did he name the horse after Catherine the Great because she died fucking a horse?\" Even though the horse legend might be total bullshit, it's still funny to bring up. That led to ETP mentioning this story from a couple of months back. As it turned out, he didn't die from the horse falling on top of him.\nSeveral months back, I suddenly started getting a bunch of Google hits for things like \"man dies fucking horse video.\" And despite the fucked up search hits that I get (\"donkey dongs\" is a popular one... just thought I'd share), I still had to ask what the fuck brought it on. Then I saw one search hit that included mention of Dan Savage, the Savage Love sex columnist, and I thought the issue was settled -- it was something that had come up in one of his columns.\nNope, as it turns out, some dumbass died of a \"perforated colon\" from taking it up the ass from a horse. Christ, the balls (balls, of course, almost always equating to a lack of brains) to let a horse fuck you in the ass. But really, the thing that I get thinking about is this guy's family. You thought Captain Lou was embarrassed? Shit, imagine having to explain that to other people. \"How's Tommy doing?\" \"He's dead.\" \"Oh, I'm so sorry... What happened?\" [Insert lie].\nDo you think they had a funeral for him? I'd be willing to bet that his next of kin just said \"Fuck it... Just burn his body or throw it out. We never speak of this again.\"\n\"The information that we have is that people would find this place via chat rooms on the Web\"\nBullshit -- and I'm not totally kidding. Chatrooms are filled with some pretty vile shit, but it's mostly just talk. Although I'd imagine that with the cesspool that the internet and chatrooms are, there are places where getting punctured internally by a horse can be arranged.\n\"If you're talking about sheep or goats, there could be some issues.\"\nThis statement amuses me. Now, I get it that sex with animals isn't illegal in Washington state, as it isn't in many others for some odd reason in this day and age, but I still found this to be a funny thing for someone to say. You're cool with horses but sheep and goats are right out? Okay, just so long as we're clear.\nWhy is it that everything I get interested in either turns to shit or goes away? Like for instance, I got into Star Trek in Next Gen's sixth season. The show didn't go bad on me, but it did go away a season and a half later.\nQuite possibly the biggest disappointment of all time is Ghastly's Ghastly Comic. I discovered this around Xmas of last year, and immediately hailed it as the reason we invented the webcomic. Well, I didn't go that far, but I was thoroughly pleased with what Ghastly had put forth. And how was I rewarded for this praise? With the comic turning to utter schlock, of course. I check it every week, but it's with a sense of begrudging dread that I do so. It's more out of idiotic obligation that I do this, kinda like when I bought The Fragile many years back.\nI know why Ghastly became ghastly unfunny. Two reasons. For one, Ghastly set out on a quest to become a better artist in terms of his drawing. This is a laudable goal, but it should not come at the expense of your biggest talent -- writing. Also, he apparently started doing a second comic, which I haven't looked at and don't care to at this point. That sapped time and energy from the main comic, and combined with his bullshit improvement goal, made for a lousy comic.\nYou know who else isn't funny anymore? Me. I look back at some of my older posts, and I'm like, damn, this kid is funny. I know it's rather uncouth to laugh at one's own jokes, but fuck that -- I am a comic genius. Or at least I was, because now I fuck ass. And not in a good way, either.\nSo we know why Ghastly sucks now, but what the hell happened to me? Well, answering that question in full scale could be a blog of it's own, but in terms of why my 'blog isn't funny anymore, we can look to a lot of things. For one, just about everything I posted on died with the election last year. In the run-up, it was like, yeah, this is fun to talk about. Then it was like, man, this is a fucking waste of time. It also never helps when you're a sore loser. Then there was/is my job, which actually keeps me pretty busy, and so it was like, fuck this -- I don't have time to post. Then, of course, there was all the nonsense about the car. Not that posting on it was bad per se (especially not for me, of course, but as always everyone else is on their own), but that was really all I cared to post about. As I've said before, I've really got nothing more going on besides A) the car B) work and C) masturbating. Work I just don't really bring up because even though I enjoy my job, it's not one that's really bloggable. The car I obviously bring up from time to time. And masturbating? Shit, trust me -- you do not want to hear about that. It is even less hot than it sounds, and I know that doesn't seem possible, but it is.\nOkay, that's enough bullshit introspection. At this point I'm not doing this blog bullshit out of obligation or anything, and from time to time I get a bug up my ass to do it, so it's still amusing to me. Anyway, speaking of Ghastly and the good ol' days, I was searching through old posts on Blogger, and came across an unposted \"Year in Review\" from last year. It really wasn't very good (which is saying quite a bit considering the quality to be found here), so I never got motivated to finish it. I left it pretty raw -- there were gaps, errors (I somehow fucked up the year, which was pretty brilliant) and even a section just called \"UNFINISHED,\" so it has even less polish than the other drivel I put out there. But it kinda irritates me to have shit unposted, and there were at least a couple of things that made me laugh. So do 'ya remember 2004 and are you ready to relive it? Me neither. But I did it, so now you have to, too. Maybe I'll do a timely 2005 year in review later this month or in early '06, or maybe I'll post it when it's even less relevant. Without further ado, I present to you a post that never was... But now is.\nYeah, fuck lists\nIt has been my annual tradition to list a bunch of random shit here at Fuck everything, and though the odds of me telling you my thoughts on 2003 are actually quite high doing it the way I've done it for the last few years really sounds awful to me. To both of us, even. So we're not going to do that.\nOh wait, yes we are. Why? Because I've got no place else to go. I'm starting this list New Year's Eve, and within a couple of days it should be sufficiently unfunny for me to release it into the wild. Like last year's list, this is pretty much just a stream of consciousness effort much like everything else I'm responsible for. Some categories will be returning, others added, with yet others shamefully dismissed. Let's get it on.\nU.S. presidential \"election\"\nUnlike last year, this was sort of a tough call. Mainly due to the big awful story of the past week with the earthquake and tsunamis in Asia and Africa. The thing is, when it comes to the tsunami story, there's really not much that I can do a lot of complaining about. More importantly, I really haven't found anything there to make jokes about -- we may have to wait the requisite 22.3 years for that.\nThe election, on the other hand, gave me plenty to bitch and complain about. The pitting of SuperDumbfuck George W. Bush against SuperNothing John F. Kerry (John who?) fueled quite a few posts around here. Of course, it was also the run-up to the election -- the RNC, the DNC, Republican bullshit, John Kerry's (John who's?) neverending pussitude, the Swiftboat bitter assholes, to name a few things -- that all but killed my desire to 'blog, especially on politics. If that doesn't make you pro-election, I don't know what will.\nFluke's Six Wheels on My Wagon\nThis was actually one of Fluke's earlier releases, having come out in 1993. Once again, though, since I am the center of everything, nothing really happens until I'm exposed to it. And since I didn't get my shit together and buy it until this year (and actually, it was ETP who put in the order to get both of us our copies), that makes it eligible for this year's award.\nAlbum of the year, if I'm forced to pick something besides a Fluke release\nI don't listen to music. Go ask someone who knows shit about shit, like ETP.\nGreatest Grill of All Time\nMuhammad Ali's \"The Greatest Grill of All Time\"\nThe rivalry is heating back up.\nA late entry, this one is pretty much beyond everything.\nStand-up Performance of the Year\nI can't even remember half of what went down this year, but I'm pretty sure that we at least saw Carlin, Robert Schimmel, Chris Rock, and Bill Maher at some point during the year. Maher was good as always. Chris Rock, despite the long hiatus from touring, is still good. Schimmel, last year's winner, was also good, but that man hasn't written a new joke in like five years. Carlin, on the other hand is, well, Carlin.\nLaura Bush \"Cunt of the Year\" Annual Award\nI still hate this woman.\nI never go to movies, for two reasons. For one, there's hardly ever anything out that interests me. For two, I for some reason have a really difficult time allocating, in advance, a two-hour block of time to just sitting around doing essentially nothing. Granted, I never do anything but sit around doing nothing for hours at a time, but when it's not planned in ahead of time (and bought for $8), doing nothing still seems fresh and exciting.\nI was really looking forward to Kill Bill Vol. 2, and that turned out to be a pretty big disappointment. Yeah, it was still pretty good, but it just didn't have the intangible \"it\" of the first installment. I remember seeing Hellboy back in April or whatever, and while entertaining, this movie does not belong on any self-respecting or even self-effacing \"best of\" list. Oh, and didn't Michael Moore's latest piece of propaganda come out this year? That, too, was entertaining, but seeing as how it reall didn't help and may have actually hurt chances if us ousting Bush, it certainly doesn't win shit.\nBefore Kill Bill Vol. 1, I'm pretty sure the most recent movie I saw was Star Trek: Nemesis (probably not true), so I'm just going to punt on this category. One finger for all of Hollywood in recognition of the fact that they're not putting out anything that interests me.\nI'm obligated to go with any game that's A) pretty and B) brings me things like Kasumi in bloomers, an XBox girl outfit, and a naughty Santa outfit along with Hitomi in bloomers, a sailor uniform, and her own XBox girl outfit. Ignoring the fact that I hate this fucking game and get utterly sick of it anytime I start playing because I'm no good at it, it wins the crown for this year.\nAnother game which I get beyond frustrated with but comes in second place is Ninja Gaiden. Not that I want to sound too much like ETP's list, but whatever. At least I really didn't care for Kart (where the fuck are my jump turns?), I have no particular affinity for Megaman even if it's decently fun (but then again, I never worked with a friend to beat Megaman 2 without getting hit once), and Crystal Chronicles had zero appeal to me. But yeah, Ninja Gaiden was good stuff, even if I got completely pissed towards the end of Chapter 5 and not picking the game up again until just a couple of days ago (I made progress, too! And now... Now I'm stuck again and will probably resume playing in May). Some other games that were probably cool but also fell victim to my Videogame ADHD:\nPrince of Persia: Sands of Time: I really just did not give this game much of a chance, but it just didn't suck me in like I'd hoped it would. I need to give it another shot.\nLa Pucelle: Tactics: This one I did enjoy playing, even if it didn't really suck me in like, say, Ocarina of Time, and for months I've been saying that I really want to start playing it again.\nGrand Theft Auto: Vice City: I'm pretty sure I got this game this past year. It, too, was a lot of fucking fun, but my attention span blows. How cool of an idea was it to get Ray Liotta to voice the main character? And shit, that's merely the beginning.\nSuper Mario Sunshine: Yes, this one is also kinda old, but I got it early last year. I really don't have any desire to play it again, either. I'm sorry, but this game is just fucking gay, and not gay in a good way, either. Why can't they just make a regular fucking Mario game that doesn't do something like focus on that stupid water backpack thingy?\nGame release I'm most looking forward to\nSay what you want about what's on the racks at stores, this game doesn't come out until I can play it on XBox.\nNew game system that I have no desire to pick up\nAlternately referred to as the Nintendo DipShit and the Nintendo DickSuck, I don't care how many people (ETP) say it's a decent system, I don't fucking want one. I just have moral opposition to there being two screens. So what if they can put the map or something useful down there? A second screen is nothing but a gimmick, and I'm sorry, but I'd much rather see the focus be placed on something other than a gimmick. Also, a second screen is just plain excessive, and if there's anything I'm against, it's excess.\nSpeaking of Excess\nProject 3 Series morphed into Project 330 and is now Project ZHP. It is driving me absolutely nuts, and I don't want to talk about it until I either just get the stupid BMW or realize there's no way for it to happen. So you're all spared... For now.\nYeah, I blew it by using this joke prematurely several months back, but fuck it. This needs to be on every list until the end of time.\nNazi concept most applicable to my life\nAs an article in The Onion once declared, \"Lebensraum is totally where it's at!\" I, of course, find amusement in stuff like this because I find myself getting a joke that I don't think the average American is going to get.\nBut yeah, that's pretty much what all of this year was for me -- living space. First, I needed a house with enough space for me and my girls. Then, I needed lebensraum in a more abstract manner when trying to find breathing room in my budget to get the BMW and still be able to save money while maintaining a decent standard of living. Further appropriate that I was lusting after a German car.\nSo I took a term that Hitler used to justify invading neighbors and thus setting the entire world on fire which led to the death of millions, and belittled it all as part of my quest for material goods and money. Basically what I'm trying to say is that I'm an asshole and a bad person.\nMost awful human being\nIt took some thinking to come up with a winner, but it's pretty sad for the rest of humanity because I knew that I still cannot make the top of this list.\nWho cares, watching anime is for fucking losers\nBut if I did watch anime...\nI still really don't know\nI've had to back way the hell off from this habit this past year.\nI had forgotten just how brilliant this Onion arti...\nEarlier tonight I saw a rugby game for XBox. And ...\nWhy is it that everything I get interested in eith...",

Without revealing specifics, and saying in jest that he changes his mechanics \u201cevery day,\u201d Willis added that he\u2019s focusing on not overfocusing, pitching to contact and avoiding the big inning, three of his big bugaboos.\n\u201cI take things one day at a time,\u201d the left-hander said. \u201cI\u2019m not that complex of a guy.\u201d\nThat\u2019s what D-backs pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre told Willis in the pair\u2019s first meeting: \u201cBe me and have fun,\u201d Willis said. A sampling of the D-Train\u2019s one-liners \u2014 accompanied by his patented grin \u2014 during his nine-minute meeting with reporters:\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 On aiming for more mound success: \u201cI\u2019m going to be like a jump shooter, just keep shooting until I find it.\u201d\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 On landing in Arizona and regaining his No. 35 uniform number: \u201cI kind of miss the purple uniforms though, but it\u2019s nice to be here.\u201d\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 On former teammate\u2019s Armando Galarraga\u2019s empty attempt at perfection this week: \u201cHe still got a free car.\u201d\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 On his \u201cmagic\u201d as a Marlin: \u201cThere\u2019s no sorcery or anything like that.\nIt was just playing good baseball.\u201d\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 On getting a chance to hit again in the National Legaue: \u201cI don\u2019t know. Dan Haren is the Babe Ruth of the league now. That\u2019s a tough act to follow.\u201d\nWillis joins a club in dire need, perhaps more so now than ever considering its recent 0-9 road trip, of a true lefty capable of clever levity.\n\u201cHe\u2019s got a [lot of] life in him; he\u2019s full of energy,\u201d said D-backs starter Edwin Jackson, who teamed with Willis in Detroit last season before he was traded westward in December. \u201cMaybe that\u2019s what we need right now.\u201d",

        "title": "Tundra Swans Migrate in Flocks of Hundreds - Adventure Publications",
        "raw_content": "Naturalist and wildlife photographer Stan Tekiela observes hundreds of Tundra Swans as they migrate to their nesting areas.\nStepping out of the house, I immediately hear a familiar and wonderful sound\u2014one that I only hear at this time of year. It is a high-pitched and smooth bugling call, given over and over. The sound is always distant and comes from high up in the sky. If you don\u2019t stop and look up and around, you just might miss it. It is the sound of hundreds of migrating Tundra Swans (Cygnus columbianus).\nEach autumn, thousands of these pure-white waterfowl migrate out of their nesting areas in northern Canada and Alaska and make an amazing journey across the country. Migrating flocks number in the hundreds to thousands and consist of immediate and extended family members. They are usually broken up into smaller groups, ranging anywhere from 20 to 200 swans. They fly in large V formations.\nOver the past couple of weeks I have been seeing and hearing dozens of flocks flying overhead. They are all flying in the same direction, from the northwest to the southeast. Usually they are migrating only on days when the wind is blowing out of the north or northwest.\nFormally called Whistling Swans, the Tundra Swan is pure white with black legs, feet, and beak. However, when these birds feed on the bottoms of iron-rich ponds and lakes, the feathers on their heads and upper neck become stained a reddish color. They are incredibly large birds, weighing up to 16.5 pounds and having a 5- to 6-foot wing span.\nThey look nearly identical to our slightly larger native, the Trumpeter Swan. The best way to separate the two species is by their call. The Tundra has a high-pitched call and the Trumpeter has a low-pitched call. The other is by looking just below their eyes near the base of their bill. The Tundra Swan has a small yellow patch and the Trumpeter doesn\u2019t, but this is often very hard to see.\nThere are two populations of Tundra Swans. Both nest in the arctic of northern Canada and Alaska, but the western population migrates to winter mainly in California. The eastern population, which is the majority, migrates diagonally across Canada and the eastern half of the U.S. to the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland and along the coast of North Carolina. They fly an incredible 4,200 miles one way to spend the winter.\nWhile migrating, the eastern flock has several major stop-over sites. One of these is the backwaters of the Mississippi River between southeastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin. In the shallow ponds and slow moving parts of the river, thousands of Tundra Swans gather to feed and rest. The other day I traveled to see these amazing migrating birds along the Mississippi River.\nEven though the temperatures had been well below freezing for several weeks, parts of the water along the Mississippi River were still open. Just off the west shore of the river, in a short (1-mile) stretch of the river, thousands of Tundra Swans were gathered. These were the very swans that had flown over my house four or five days before.\nI stopped at a curve in the road that gave me a good view over the river. The moment I opened my truck door I could hear my old friends calling. The sweet sound of the Tundra Swans. Thousands of birds were feeding, resting, and calling. The blue sky reflected on the water\u2019s surface, making the white swans stand out like neon lights.\nI spent the rest of the afternoon observing and capturing some wonderful images. I was able to watch as families of swans interacted with others. Some swans where flying, while others were sleeping or feeding. But all along, they never stopped calling.\nThey will spend perhaps another week or two feeding and resting before they will start to take off and continue on their journey to the east coast. In the spring they will fly up the east coast until they hit Canada; then they will turn westward and fly across Canada back to their nesting grounds. I won\u2019t see the swans for another year.\nbird migrationbirdingBirdsNatureStan TekielaTundra SwansWIldlife",

        "title": "Republican messages | Tom B.'s Rambles",
        "raw_content": "\u00ab 2 views of Obama\nGood news in Ohio \u00bb\nThe Republican party and McCain/Palin campaign have been really hitting things hard with their messages. It is apparent that they are really starting to feel the pressure of the polling numbers that are coming out daily. There is some movement in the polls, including some tightening of the race in the national numbers, but the state polls are not looking good for McCain and it is hurting the down ticket Republicans. Although several of them have managed to shoot their own foot, i.e. Michelle Bachman.\nThe most irritating Republican talking point is the idea that it is a bad thing to have both the White House and Congress in the hands of the same party. As someone who tends toward the middle of the road, I generally agree with this sentiment. It does help keep the country more toward the center of the road when the President and Congress have to compromise. Unfortunately, it can also lead to gridlock and necessary work not getting done when both sides refuse to compromise.\nDavid Frum, a conservative political commentator at the Washington Post, has written an article with this talking point. He is really afraid of the leftist domination of the Democratic party and what it will do to the country. But Brad Delong, in a very short post called, I Call Bullshit on David Frum, did just that. If it is so bad now, why wasn\u2019t it bad in 2000? or 2002? or 2004?\nThe interesting part of this tactic is that the Republican Party is using it to push voting for Republican senators and representatives. John McCain is using it to say vote for him. Considering the polling numbers for McCain, unless something really drastic occurs, it is doubtful his use of this message will do much. The Republican senators and representatives may have better luck, probably depending on how closely they have tied themselves to the McCain/Palin ticket.\nCarl Huse and David M. Herszenhorn point out in The New York Times that even a veto proof majority in congress does not mean that everything can get passed. Both the major parties are in reality, coalitions of smaller groups that tend to work together. In a parlimentary system, neither would be nearly as large as they are in the US system. Blue Dog Democrats can easily align with fiscally conservative Republicans, with the blessings of their constituents, to block bills they think go too far.\nOne of the things that has hurt the Republicans this year, especially in the Presidential campaign, is that they seem to have forgotten they are a coalition. McCain/Palin seem to be working hard to pull in the social conservatives, but they are losing the fiscal conservatives and social moderates. And losing the moderates, whether fiscal or social, is a losing strategy in the United States.\nAnother meme that seems to be flowing through various comment sections on the web is that John Kerry was ahead of Bush in 2004 at this point and McCain can still come back. In reality, Kerry was mostly behind in electoral votes for the last month or so. He had some good polling days, much better than McCains to be honest, but Electoral-vote.com has all of their pages from the 2004 election up, showing that Kerry and Bush were close all through the last month, with Bush usually polling ahead. From the looks of his data, who won was almost random, depending on who had a headache when they got up and decided to skip voting that day.\nIn comparison, Obama has been leading on the Electoral-vote.com site since mid September just before the economy crashed, with his lead in electoral votes growing steadily. He makes it easy to compare the two campaigns with graphs on this page. Combined with the work that Nate Silver and compatriots have been doing at FiveThirtyEight.com, and it looks like it would take something truly catastrophic to stop Obama.\n\">septuor-lozenge",

        "raw_content": "I think it\u2019s fairly safe to say that I\u2019m not a particularly patient person. My wife is no doubt chuckling if she\u2019s reading this. I have become reasonably adept at projecting the impression of patience, but at my core I find slow decision-making, or slow processes to be absolutely unbearable. It\u2019s not a new thing, I\u2019ve struggled with it for as long as I can remember, but I\u2019ve had to really adapt in the past 15 or 16 years as I\u2019ve moved into more senior management roles. I find indecision or slow-moving work initiatives to be incredibly annoying, and as I have become increasingly proficient at not venting frustration directly at people (there was a time when I didn\u2019t hold back, and it wasn\u2019t particularly productive) I\u2019ve had to keep things slow and steady emotionally. If I leave things unchecked, and let the stress take over, I\u2019ve been known to drift in one of two directions; either a form of intellectual paralysis, where the lack of momentum causes me to lose focus completely \u2013 thankfully something I\u2019ve not had to deal with for a very long time \u2013 or (and this is the scary one) emotional numbness.\nThe latter was something that I wasn\u2019t even aware of when it was happening, but having been through it during the tail end of the What They Play chapter of my career, I can look back on it now as possibly the scariest time of my adult life. Having been through a period of what can only be described as spiritual vapidity, I\u2019m now fully aware of where my dark side is. I\u2019m not talking about getting all Lisbeth Salander here. I don\u2019t suddenly develop a penchant for black nail polish and freaky weirdness. The truth is that in my most extreme times of emotional distress, my psyche doesn\u2019t freak out, it\u2026what would you call it? Freaks in. When my stress levels wound up to truly extreme levels, I found that rather than getting increasingly emotional, I actually got less so. In the case of What They Play, as we struggled with funding during the worst years of the financial crisis, the idea that what I\u2019d spent two years building may fall apart and that the team that had been so loyal and dependable may be out of work became a huge burden. While at the time I had absolutely no idea this was happening, what I found was that my emotions just shut down completely. I wasn\u2019t scared, I wasn\u2019t angry, and I wasn\u2019t unhappy about what was happening. Similarly, I wasn\u2019t expressing much of any kind of real emotional response to anything else either; I wasn\u2019t happy, I didn\u2019t find things funny, or sad. I was incapable of feeling excitement, or nervousness, or anything emotional that you would otherwise take for granted. With this emotional compass somehow missing, it turned me into a completely different person. I believe the technical term is denial. It took me until about a year after the dust had settled to realize that without that internal barometer, and any kind of self awareness about it that my usually quite measured ability to make reasonable judgment calls was completely obliterated.\nIn retrospect, the scariest thing about the whole situation was that I had no idea that it was potentially a problem. When you\u2019re stressed out, it\u2019s easy to watch out for quintessential crazy person behavior \u2013 freak outs, rage, whatever \u2013 it\u2019s another thing to notice that things are swinging the other way. I really don\u2019t know what I would have done if it wasn\u2019t for Mrs D and her amazing capacity for both tolerating my ridiculous bullshit, and helping me piece things back together in a much more self-aware fashion. Without her Yoda-like ability to turn me from the dark side, I really don\u2019t know what I would have done, and there\u2019s a very good chance that things would have gotten far more destructive. By learning and understanding that (if none of us are paying attention properly) I have the capacity to just shut down completely when things get really tough, she has helped me achieve a balance in the last couple of years that I really didn\u2019t have previously. Importantly, this is also a balance that I didn\u2019t fully appreciate that I needed. The majority stems from her love and the kids\u2019, but it\u2019s also a greater focus on both physical and emotional health, and a willingness to stare right into the face of what\u2019s challenging and acknowledge problems as they\u2019re happening.\nWith the pressures of new jobs and new responsibilities in the time since we eventually sold What They Play to IGN (see? There was a happy ending there eventually) I\u2019ve been able to process challenges and stress in a completely different way, while also keeping my head above water and fixed on what\u2019s most important.\nSee? This is what an imminent 40th birthday has provoked; it\u2019s prompted some self-analysis, and consequently a blog post that was in serious danger of drifting into granola-crunching, touchy-feely, sandal-wearing, spirituality nonsense before I pulled it back from the edge there. Bottom line? Wife, good. Kids, good. Stress, bad.",

This compares with an annual rate of decline of 3.3% in January and a decline of 17.8% recorded in the twelve months to February 2012.\nIn Dublin residential property prices fell by 0.3% in February but were 3.0% higher than a year ago. Dublin house prices fell by 1.0% in the month but were 2.5% higher compared to a year earlier. Dublin apartment prices were 7.8% higher when compared with the same month of 2012. However, it should be noted that the sub-indices for apartments are based on low volumes of observed transactions and consequently suffer from greater volatility than other series.\nThe price of residential properties in the Rest of Ireland (i.e. excluding Dublin) fell by 2.1% in February compared with a decline of 3.0% in February last year. Prices were 6.1% lower than in February 2012.\nHouse prices in Dublin are 55% lower than at their highest level in early 2007. Apartments in Dublin are 59% lower than they were in February 2007.\nResidential property prices in Dublin are 56% lower than at their highest level in February 2007. The fall in the price of residential properties in the Rest of Ireland is somewhat lower at 49%. Overall, the national index is 51% lower than its highest level in 2007.\nThe CSO\u2019s Residential Property Price Index is compiled using data on mortgage drawdowns from the eight main lending institutions in Ireland.

        "raw_content": "Should the U.S. halt its military aid to Egypt or not is a hot debate consuming western and Arab pundits as if their lives depended on it. Some groups\u2019 anger and bewilderment at the United States for not declaring the June 30th to July 3d unseating of President Morsi a \u201ccoup\u201d are obvious. They are filling media pages and airwaves to make their point, but nothing is changing, which makes them only angrier and more vocal.\nIn a tragic way, they mirror Morsi supporters who won\u2019t give up until their leader is reinstated. They too seem to be stuck in their way, unable to think of something new to discuss or debate. Since they will accept nothing other than their views, they turn to the aid as the only reason for not calling the coup a coup; and they demand with all their might and authority (read lack of) that the U.S. stop aid to Egypt immediately. Their lack of pragmatism and inability to offer ideas beyond cutting the aid is blinding them and those who listen to them.\nMany U.S. citizens wish their country would stop using their tax dollars to send aid not just to Egypt, but to Israel as well, to see how each country will fare on its own without that aid. I\u2019m pretty sure Egypt will survive just fine without the aid but I\u2019m not so sure about Israel.\nThe U.S. gives Israel $3.4 billion in defense aid every year. This leaves room for the money to be spent in open-ended different ways. In the same token, Egypt receives $1.3 billion in U.S. aid in return for maintaining peace with Israel and allowing U.S. military priority access to the Suez Canal and Egyptian airspace. How does the specifically framed aid change whether a democratically elected president was removed from office by popular demand? Did the military install its own representative as caretaker or interim president? No. Nor did they turn the country into a military dictatorship and started running it as an autocracy! Plus, they did not threaten to cancel the peace treaty with Israel; nor did they forbid U.S. access to the Suez or airspace. Instead, they called for an amended constitution, a parliament and elections under an interim president and cabinet. From the U.S. point of view the aid is still kosher or halal!\nThe U.S. now has a much more important role to play than the aid game. It is time to hold every one responsible for their actions, including the Muslim Brotherhood, the liberals, the conservatives, the youth and every Egyptian that wants to be part of the nation building in Egypt.\nI heard a prominent analyst complain that Egyptian \u201cliberals are crazy to think they can re-write political science!\u201d Many of us studied political \u201cscience\u201d in schools and universities. We studied history and journalism too. What we\u2019ve been witnessing in the past twenty some years is a revolution on everything we know and we were made to believe.\nThe fall of the Berlin Wall and the fall of communism were unfathomable thoughts at one point in history and political science books could have never predicted that Georgia, Armenia, Lithuania and Uzbekistan will ever be independent nations. Did any political science book project the end of the Soviet Union or the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia into independent nations? If we believed only what political science books told us, Czechoslovakia would still be a communist dictatorship and East Timor would have never been born.\nThe Arab Spring has arrived late and as a surprise no doubt and it is still an embryo trying to survive. If the \u201cexperts\u201d would just let it happen instead of protect their turf and old beliefs.\nDemocracy will not happen overnight; nor should it. If Egyptians and other Arabs don\u2019t go through the labor pains and later the growing pains of their democracy, they will never cherish it and protect it. People will make mistakes and they will pay for those mistakes. The challenge is not to accept defeat and move on. The biggest challenge is to learn from the defeat and not give up. Can we just dream that this is how nations are built? Maybe one day this also will become a reality!",

        "title": "Thoughts from a Buttonmonger: The Scottsboro Boys",
        "raw_content": "The Scottsboro Boys, with attorney Samuel Leibowitz, under guard by the state militia, 1932\nThe Scottsboro Boys were nine black teenage boys accused of rape in Alabama in 1931. The landmark set of legal cases from this incident dealt with racism and the right to a fair trial. The case includes a frameup, all-white jury, rushed trials, an attempted lynching, angry mob, and miscarriage of justice.\nOn March 25, 1931, several people were hoboing on a freight train traveling between Chattanooga and Memphis, Tennessee. Several white boys jumped off the train and reported to the sheriff they had been attacked by a group of black boys. The sheriff deputized a posse, stopped and searched the train at Paint Rock, Alabama, arrested the black boys, and found two white girls who accused the boys of rape. The case was first heard in Scottsboro, Alabama in three rushed trials, where the defendants received poor legal representation. All but the twelve-year-old Roy Wright were convicted of rape and sentenced to death, the common sentence in Alabama at the time for black men convicted of raping white women. But with help from the American Communist Party, the case was appealed. The Alabama Supreme Court affirmed seven of the eight convictions, and granted thirteen-year-old Eugene Williams a new trial because he was a juvenile. Chief Justice John C. Anderson dissented however, ruling that the defendants had been denied an impartial jury, fair trial, fair sentencing, and effective counsel.\nThe case was returned to the lower court and the judge allowed a change of venue, moving the retrials to Decatur, Alabama. Judge Horton was appointed. During the retrials, one of the alleged victims admitted fabricating the rape story and asserted that none of the Scottsboro Boys touched either of the white women. The jury found the defendants guilty, but the judge set aside the verdict and granted a new trial. After a new series of trials, the verdict was the same: guilty. The cases were ultimately tried three times. For the third time a jury\u2014now with one black member\u2014returned a third guilty verdict. Charges were finally dropped for four of the nine defendants. Sentences for the rest ranged from 75 years to death. All but two served prison sentences. One was shot in prison by a guard. Two escaped, were charged with crimes, and were sent back to prison. Clarence Norris, the oldest defendant and the only one sentenced to death, escaped parole and went into hiding in 1946. He was pardoned by George Wallace in 1976 after he was found, and wrote a book about his experiences. The last surviving defendant died in 1989.\nThe Scottsboro Boys, as they became known, at the time were defended by many in the North and attacked by many in the South. The case is now widely considered a miscarriage of justice that led to the end of all-white juries in the South. The case has inspired and has been examined in literature, music, theatre, film and television.",

I wish you all good health, great success and better English in 2012.\nI was surfing the web over the holidays when I came up with a great idea for the small blog. I thought if I could add audio to my posts, English learners who visit the blog could also practice their listening as they read the lessons, and they could also work on their pronunciation if they wanted to. In general, I thought audio would make the small blog even more useful.\nGreat idea, right? But first, I had to figure out how to add the audio file. I only know basic html; I don't know java, so I needed to find a simple way of doing it. Luckily, I found one and, after a few tries, it worked! In fact, you can hit the play button above and listen to this blog as you read it.\nI hope you like this new feature and find it useful. If you do, please come back often, and don't keep it a secret.

        "raw_content": "Black Boys in Crisis: Is the Punishment Too Harsh?\nTurning our backs on the misbehavior of our K-12 youth doesn't teach them a lesson, or lead to lives that are changed for the better. It only simplifies the present, paving the way for a future of crime and other misbehavior. In order to change the troubling trends of Black men and crime, we first need to address the way Black boys are disciplined in K-12 schools and look for better solutions to suspensions and arrests.\nBlack Boys in Crisis: Why Aren't They Reading?\nThe disadvantages that Black boys bring to their schools aren't corrected in K-12 classrooms, they are furthered. As they get older, they are continually marginalized in their schools and societies - given less-than-adequate access to the resources that their already advantaged peers receive. While the connection between items like reading scores and civic responsibility may not seem well defined on the surface, they are related and that relationship is integral to turning the tide for Black boys in America.\nYear-Round Schooling: Should We Add on Extra Time, Too?\nIn this series, I've advocated for K-12 schools to shift from the traditional summers-off school calendar to a year-round one. Consistency, less time spent relearning material, and the implications that year-round schooling has for closing the achievement gap are just a few of my reasons for feeling so strongly that this shift take place. There's another piece to this argument though, and one that deserves a closer look. Along with more evenly splitting up time off, should schools be adding more time to their school days or more total days in the classroom?\nYear-Round Schooling: How It Would Help Minorities\nIn my previous two posts, I've emphasized the need for all American K-12 schools to transition to a year-round school calendar. I've highlighted and debunked the most common arguments against year-round schooling and called for educators to stand behind a push to shift to a more consistent school calendar that maximizes student learning. Perhaps one of the strongest arguments in favor of year-round schooling however is the boost it would give to minority and other traditionally disadvantaged groups.\nGrading Race to the Top on Its Merits\nBy Matthew Lynch July 22, 2014 at 11:57 PM\nAs we celebrate the fifth anniversary of Obama's Race to the Top competition, many of us are contemplating whether or not it was a success. After much reflection, I decided to write an opinion piece, assessing it on its merits. Toward the end of the piece, I will issue a letter grade (A-F) denoting the result of my evaluation.\nYear-Round Schooling: 3 Common Arguments Against It\nIn my last post, I talked about the reasons I feel that teachers should get behind the push to support year-round schooling and how more consistent time in the classroom will lead to higher student performance, boosting teacher accountability ratings and accommodating a much more streamlined education process. Today I want to look at the common reasons that people are against switching from a summers-off school calendar to a year-round schooling model.\nYear-Round Schooling: Why It's Time to Change\nWhen public schools first started popping up in the U.S., they were considered secondary to other hands-on pursuits. Learning to read, write and perform basic arithmetic in classrooms was not equal to or greater than the actual work of building the nation and keeping up family farms.\nBeyond the Bubble Test: Why We Need Performance Assessments\nLast spring, while millions of American students were bubbling in answers to multiple-choice questions on the ubiquitous tests that determine school and teacher ratings, student promotions, graduation, and college admissions, some students were meeting a higher standard. At the Urban Academy, a second chance high school in New York City that is part of the New York Performance Standards Consortium, Gemma Venuti completed the set of research papers that were part of her graduation portfolio \u2014 and defended them before a committee of teachers, students, and experts from outside the school.\nHow Do We Hire the Very Best Teachers?\nThink back on your education - all those years sitting in classrooms and diligently taking tests. If I asked you to name the best teacher you had, or to explain why that teacher was so great, could you do it?\nThe Ultimate Demise of Common Core - Part III: The Logistics\nBy Matthew Lynch July 1, 2014 at 10:30 AM\nFrom an idealogical perspective, the differences that divide Americans are also what make the nation unique and great. When it comes to education, however, there seems to be a competing theory that differences should be dismissed in favor of finding a standardized way to teach all K-12 students. Time and again when it comes to national policy on education, stringent sets of benchmarks are consistently put in place that are accompanied with funding incentives. The latest example of this one-size-fits-all approach to education policy is Common Core standards and the testing that goes with them.",

        "raw_content": "The slide/finger-picking guitarist Brian Kramer talks about Junior Wells, Eric Bibb, resophonics, Mali music & Swedish blues scene\nPosted by Michael Limnios Blues Network on February 6, 2012 at 1:30pm\n\"Music is a deeper, more complex language than what we can process or understand with just the mind alone.\"\nBrian Kramer: Deep Blues from the Roots\nBrian Kramer has shared the stage and traded licks and recorded with Taj Mahal, Toumani Diabate, Bob Brozman, Alvin Youngblood Hart, Robben Ford, Geoff Muldaur, Bobby Rush, Bernard Allison, Eugene \u201cHideaway\u201d Bridges, John Mayall, Sven Zetterberg, Michael Barretto, Otis Grand, Jimmy Dawkins and many others; and performed at international events. A native of Brooklyn, Brian was barely out of his teens when he began hanging out with legendary blues men, picking up tips and advice from folks such as Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, whenever they visited his hometown of NYC. Junior Wells took a particular liking to Brian and paid careful attention in showing him the right moves and how to play from the heart.\nIn 1989, Junior joined Brian on his first record, Brian Kramer and the Bluesmasters featuring Junior Wells, Win or Lose, with Junior backing up Brian on almost every track and Brian supporting Junior on four of his songs. On these sessions were a gathering of the finest, most respected sidemen in the US, as well as former Rolling Stone, Mick Taylor. Throughout much of the 90s, Brian toured and continued to be a fixture within the New York club scene, performing frequently with the great Blues man Larry Johnson, until relocating overseas to seek a broader range of opportunities.\nOn moving to Sweden, Brian began to be featured on the tracks of several established artists such as Cyndee Peters, Derrick \u201cBig\u201d Walker, and others. In 1998, Brian joined internationally acclaimed artist Eric Bibb, performing the next two years on four successful coast-to-coast tours of the US and Canada, Europe and Japan. That same year, Brian began hosting the weekly Saturday Stampen Blues Jam. These jam sessions proved to be fertile ground for nurturing Sweden\u2019s hottest new young blues talents. In 2000, Brian released an intimate, all acoustic recording titled Brian Kramer Trio and Friends, Live at the Folklore Center, the following year saw the international release by Armadillo Records, UK, of Larry Johnson featuring Brian Kramer & the Couch Lizards, Two Gun Green. From 2001 to 2005, Brian began releasing a series of albums in his own name: No Regrets, Everybody\u2019s Story and I Want My Illusion. In 2007, the S. African Dept. of Culture invited Brian to perform and conduct workshops at one of the largest cultural festivals in South Africa. Just prior to this event, Brian had collaborated with Taj Mahal and local South-African musicians on a recording - Cross Boundaries - for use on a promotional CD for the Aardklop Festival. In 2008, Brian celebrated 10 years of performances at Stampen, commemorating the anniversary with the album: Brian Kramer & the Nights of Blu-topia. In 2014 Brian released his first novel, \u201cOut Of The Blues,\u201d (published by Bullet Point Publishing) and the new CD, \u201cFull Circle\u201d.\nBrian, when was your first desire to become involved in the blues & what were the first songs you learned?\nI first stumbled across the blues when I was 15 years old in Brooklyn. Me and a good friend dared each other to \u201csnatch\u201d some records from a small used record store one summer day when we were bored. When we ran home, the records we took were not what we expected and there was a Lightnin\u2019 Hopkins record that completely blew me away. I had never heard anything like it before! We started trying to figure out the blues right away, which was not easy on our own. I remember teaching myself Lightnin\u2019s Trouble Blues, and Trouble In Mind. Muddy Water\u2019s Walkin\u2019 Blues & Cant Be Satisfied. And a whole bunch of Robert Johnson stuff.\nMy hope is that more young people get exposed to what is special about Blues, roots and \"real\" music. Connect to the soul and depth of it like it was originally intended. Once exposed to that, its difficult to listen to and accept crap.\nHas it always been all about the blues? Or is there any other types of music, you could say you have been strongly affected by?\nIn the house and areas where I grew up my parents listened to a lot of Sinatra or Dean Martin or Elvis so this had an effect on my taste. Then the rock music of the day was all around us\u2026 But when I got hit with the Blues bug, it was not very popular in Brooklyn in the 70\u2019s, so it felt like a secret language and I had to really seek it out. It\u2019s not like today where you can just google or youtube everything, you really had to search.\nHow do you describe your music philosophy about the blues?\nBlues is truth. It\u2019s honestly reflecting the reality of one\u2019s life and that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean just the \u201clow-down\u201d stuff. It is also a celebration of one\u2019s joy and love of life as well! Those aspects of the Blues are as much a part of people emotions are just beginning to be explored and used as an inspiration for people. It is just as valid because it is real to the individual. I also believe I have a responsibility with my music to give folks an experience that will empower them to be lifted over their personal struggle or suffering. That is my intention at least.\nHow started the thought of novel, \u201cOut Of The Blues\u201d?\nWell, I've been writing and contributing articles to various publications including Blues Matters Magazine (UK) for many, many years. I've been wanting to challenge something longer, novel length and have actually written an autobiography about ten years back.\nI asked a publisher here in Stockholm if he would read it and give me an honest answer if it was publishable or was I fooling myself. To my surprise he said it was, however the moment I realized that it was possible, I decided I didn't want anything published that was based on facts of my life when there are so many sides to the experiences shared. Not yet at least.\nBut, I then got a flash of inspiration for the story behind \"Out Of The Blues\" (Bullet Point Publishing), based on aging Blues musicians who live in NYC and following their ups and downs and struggles, with the NY club scene as a strong backdrop and was excited that I could actually spread many of my own experiences out over the different characters and the times without it actually being specific to my own life. The publisher read it, loved it and the rest it history.\nAnother interesting unplanned note; many of the lyrics for my latest album release; \"Full Circle\" were written the same period I was writing the novel, because the main characters are songwriters, so they wound up in the book as filler until I replaced with something else later on. That never happened and eventually I went in to record the album and when the book was agreed to be published, I suddenly realized there was a specific tie-in to the novel and the recording. So, they sort of support each other.\nDo you have secret passions in music? Let's say Abba, for example?\nHmmm? If I tell you, I may be tortured for it! Let\u2019s just say I can be a sucker for weepy-eyed ballads of the 70\u2019s\u2026\nWould you mind telling me your most vivid memory from Eric Bibb?\nThere are so many\u2026 1999 we played an Art Center in Arizona on the bill with Alvin Youngblood Hart. Alvin Joined us at the end of our set for a few songs and it really got into the \u201choly\u201d zone. I felt like the music we created that night burnt a hole in the universe! Years later I saw a list Alvin wrote on a web forum of his \u201ctop 15\u201d musicians he\u2019s had a blast playing with and was honored to see my name on his list. The years I played with Eric were wonderful and also validating that just two players with the right intention and focus and generate a renewed energy with rootsy, original music.\nI can honestly say that I don\u2019t have a \u201cworst moment\u201d. There have been lessons along the way that have to do with understanding how the music business works (or doesn\u2019t work), but that has all resulted in understanding and sort of a collected wisdom (whatever doesn\u2019t kill ya\u2019, right?). Over-all it continues to be an amazing journey where I have the privilege to connect with listeners and lovers of my own roots/blues stuff and work with some of the most incredible and influential artists on the planet. But if I had to pick one moment; fishing with Taj Mahal on a boat for 5 hours and then recording in the studio together would be at the top of the list!\nWhat do you miss most nowadays from the music of past? What are your hopes and fears for the future of music?\nI would say certain people... Many great players and friends have passed on, like Junior Wells... Jenny Bohman...\nBut also in New York there was more of a \"scene\" or community feeling with the music environment, which is now mostly gone...\nMy fear is that artists will continue to be trivialized and under appreciated & underpaid for their talents, efforts and contributions toward a better soundtrack to this world. Spotify and various sites and download options offer an understanding that the music artists create should be free or cheap as possible. This undermines quality and robs us of our living.\nWould you mind telling me your most vivid memory from Larry Johnson\u2019s session?\nLarry and I go back a long way. He was a mentor to me in New York and allowed me by his side on many shows in the early years. He has a reputation for being a very difficult man to deal with, but he is just brutally honest. I vividly recall the joy and laughter we had together the night before the sessions when we were running through the material to be recorded. He never seemed happier and I felt like he completely trusted me with his material. The actual session was pretty intense but in the end that album \u201cTwo Gun Green\u201d is one of my proudest achievements!\nAre there any memories from Buddy Guy & Junior Wells, which you\u2019d like to share with us?\nI used to hang out with those cats whenever they came into town. You have to remember at that time in the late 70\u2019s, the Blues was very much neglected in the States. So the rooms they played would be half empty and mostly empty by the end of the night. They both really appreciated when a young person like myself at the time showed interest and I became close to them, especially Junior. The first few times I was around them backstage at the infamous Lone Star Caf\u00e9, I recall their generosity and willingness to jam with me informally and give me advice that would set me on this Blues path. When Buddy would pop a string on his guitar, he would hand it to me from the stage and I would quickly run to the dressing room and put a new one on and tune it. I would of course take a few seconds to squeeze a few licks out of his Guild Starfire semi-hollow body before I gave it back. Years later of course I recorded and released an album with Junior. Buddy wanted to/was scheduled to play on another release on mine, but the timing didn\u2019t work out and then he started to get really busy\u2026\nI would probably contribute to more music awareness in schools. More workshops and opportunities for students to be exposed to great artists and be influenced as well as shown the value of it.\nBut in the \"music world\" itself I would also offer more opportunities to youth. I have been doing that for many years over here in Stockholm and at the great club I am associated with; Stampen, and the result is a new interest is being fostered and lead by talented young musicians who feel encouraged and have the opportunities to develop.\nWhich memory from Junior makes you smile? What advice has he given to you?\nWhen we did our album together (Brian Kramer & the Blues Masters, Win Or Lose) we were both locked in a tiny booth together most of the time playing our tracks side by side. Between takes we would joke around a bit or I would play a riff and he would jump in with a riff to respond. It was very surreal and incredible. The best advice I received from Junior was that I had \u201cmy own expression of the Blues\u201d within me. I had my own voice, story and contribution & he told me as long as I respected the language,\u201d I had the right to the Blues just like anyone else including himself\u201d. That was a big deal for a young, white, Jewish kid from Brooklyn to hear at that time!\nWhat is the \u201cthing\u201d you miss most from Junior Wells?\nI miss not being able to call him and just hear his voice! He always made me feel capable and I take a part of his spirit with me wherever I go. He was a good friend.\nIn what age did you play your first gig and how was it like (where, with whom etc.)?\nMy fist \u201cofficial\u201d gig was when I was 20 at a place in Greenwich Village called Folk City (where Bob Dylan and others folk & blues legends played in NYC starting in the 60\u2019s). I was with my school buddy Jon Nilsen who I learned guitar with and Pete Conway on harp (Pete played & recorded on Chris Whitley\u2019s first album). It was actually pretty crowded and I was so nervous, but when I heard the first applause after a song, the nerves went away and I remember it being a blast! We were so hopped up after we did our set that we left the club and completely forgot to get paid! That doesn\u2019t happen anymore\u2026\nI wonder if you could tell me a few things about your experience from the workshops at cultural festivals in South Africa\nThat was an incredible, unforgettable experience. I was asked to organize a few workshops in a Township in South Africa in an area called Potchefstroom, by Johannesburg, and share my experiences with these struggling local musicians. I\u2019m not saying it\u2019s the same thing but it was a struggle growing up in Brooklyn and overcoming many obstacles to persevere and make my music happen so we were able to meet with an understanding on that level. I also study Buddhism and was able to inject a vibe of turning misfortune into fortune, which they really took inside. There is still a lingering tone of blacks being inferior to whites that peek through in that environment, which I reacted strongly to. We were able to play together and create a joyful, memorable collaboration, on the same level. I\u2019m hoping to return in the future for another chapter.\nWhat is the difference between a musician living and working in the U.S. and one in Europe?\nI see it as a huge, unnecessary struggle in the U.S. over the last 20 years or so. The music and culture is not supported as it should be and so many great working artists can\u2019t get decent gigs or what they are worth to perform. The European community seems to embrace culture in a way that is celebrated and it has been a haven for artists across genres to travel here and feel appreciated. I have always told my fellow music comrades that they need to get over to Europe somehow at least once a year to re-charge their juices and renew their inspiration. I have invited and continue to invite many friends over to play and experience the Stockholm blues scene.\nWhat is the current state of the blues scene in Sweden where you live?\nVery healthy! In some ways better than in New York. Or more like how New York used to be. There are a bunch of really good venues, lots of great musicians, the clubs are crowded and there is a healthy dose of new interest with the younger generation who are thirsting for the blues. It\u2019s an exciting time for the Blues in Stockholm!\nBlues is truth. It\u2019s honestly reflecting the reality of one\u2019s life and that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean just the \u201clow-down\u201d stuff. It is also a celebration of one\u2019s joy and love of life as well!\nOne wish for the Blues? That it is always fresh and honest by the artists who are creating it. It doesn\u2019t always have to be a rigid traditional thing, but a respect thing where the honesty and reality of this moment is reflected in their blues. Then people will always be able to relate and connect, without having to know the history. They will just groove to it like it was in the very beginning.\nDo you think that only real blues is something gloomy played by old grey-haired men with harps and battered guitars in some smokey, dark and little shabby clubs?\nAbsolutely not! I\u2019ve seen blues by both old and young, in shitty broken down shacks and in high-class art centers. The Blues is the spirit to connect and lift people to another place! The only thing that has to be \u201creal\u201d is the person\u2019s conviction. Age doesn\u2019t matter, race doesn\u2019t matter, sex doesn\u2019t\u2026 Hell, instrument doesn\u2019t matter, new or old, guitar, harp, bagpipes\u2026 Those who think otherwise may prefer their blues to be boxed in and served up sloppy, drunk and clich\u00e9d, however they are limiting their own view of the blues as a living, evolving music.\nYou have played with many guitarists. It must be hard, but would you try to give top 3, which gigs have been the biggest experiences for you?\n1) Larry Johnson at a huge blues festival in Sweden, 2001 just the two of us on stage while Larry mesmerized thousands of blues fans. The power that just two musicians with only guitars can create was awesome!\n2) Bob Brozman\u2026 I booked Bob\u2019s first shows in Sweden & he invited me on stage with him for a show that showed me this master of the slide guitar was also a humble and gracious teacher. He never once made me feel intimidated. We also recorded a few tracks together.\n3) Not a guitarist but a Kora player\u2026 Toumani Diabate from Mali; who I admire greatly and fell in love with his sound, vibe & culture. I was with him backstage at a big show he was doing in Stockholm and I had my National with me. We started playing a bit & it was feeling so good when he said; \u201cOK Brian shall we go now?\u201d I was like, where? He said \u201c\u2026to do a sound check together, music that sounds this good must be shared with the people\u201d. So then I found myself on stage with the greatest, most acknowledged Kora player on the planet! That was probably the greatest experience of my career!\nI always like to say if I had a time machine, I would probably like to be in Chicago, mid 1930's and walk into a club where Big Bill Bronnzy, Tampa Red and Memphis Minnie were on stage jamming and having what they called a \"head-cutting\" contest! To see these and other great artists in their absolute prime and the height of their success.\nAnd while I was there, I'd probably grab a couple of National resonator guitars, which only cost about thirty or forty bucks back then...\nI've heard two sayings about the blues, which are a little bit confusing. One is \"Blues is a healer\". Another one \"You have to feel blue to play Blues\". If it's suppose to be a healer, why should it make one feel sad?\nI believe it\u2019s more like you have to \u201cown\u201d or take responsibility for your personal hardship or suffering in order to deal with and overcome it. Then it becomes a healer. Music is a deeper, more complex language than what we can process or understand with just the mind alone. When we filter our sufferings through the blues, we are able to raise ourselves above it and find a way to live through it with more conviction and strength. That\u2019s how it\u2019s worked for me.\nThe Blues is the spirit to connect and lift people to another place! The only thing that has to be \u201creal\u201d is the person\u2019s conviction. Age doesn\u2019t matter, race doesn\u2019t matter, sex doesn\u2019t\u2026 Hell, instrument doesn\u2019t matter, new or old, guitar, harp, bagpipes\u2026\nDo you know why the sound of resonator guitar is connected to the blues? What are the secrets for resonators?\nThey are definitely a unique voice to the blues, though originally targeted to Hawaiian players in the 1920\u2019s. I think it\u2019s a vocal quality; they are a bit rougher, raw and with the slide can be very much like the voice.\nMost people know musicians of their recordings, tours and live shows. You are also known for your work with youth etc. Would you tell a little bit about that?\nWell I have been working with students and kids for many years with music, in schools and privately. I\u2019ve organized events and benefit concerts where the student and their music is the main focus. It\u2019s a great privilege to earn the trust of young people.\nI presume that big part of your life is somehow connected with blues. Do you have any hobbies, which do not have anything to do with music?\nI have a family, wife & two teenage kids so life is pretty full but I am also an illustrator & wish I had more time for that. I have also been a contributing writer for Blues Matters Magazine (UK). I really like writing and am working on a book as well.\nWhich are the best and the worst things in touring?\nIn the beginning when I was younger it was anything goes! Sleep anywhere, play anywhere, get paid or not\u2026 These days you start to miss your \u201ccomfort zones\u201d, you own bed, your solitude. I love to travel and want to more, but it does get harder and has to be for the right reasons these days. I really like when there is attention to detail in all aspects.\nYou have pretty interesting project, the weekly Saturday Stampen Blues Jam. Where did you get that idea?\nWell it simply didn\u2019t exist when I came and moved here! I grew up around all these great jams and watering holes for blues music in the states and was longing for it. I was actually amazed they didn\u2019t have one and it reflected in the blues community. The blues scene was very closed and exclusive\u2026 When I first started it in 1998, it was a huge success & all these closet blues musicians came out of the wood-work to be part of it. The public was also amazed because this is not really an \u201cimprovisational\u201d orientated culture, so it was and is fascinating for Swedes to witness musicians who have never played together before make great music. 14 years later and it is strong as ever and that has reflected in the over-all tone and expansion of the interest in the blues here in Sweden as a whole. People travel the globe to experience it. At least 5 other popular jam sessions in clubs have developed around Sweden inspired by what I have been doing at Stampen.\nOf all the things I\u2019ve done, people I\u2019ve played with, places I\u2019ve travelled, that\u2019s most likely what I will be remembered for in the end.\nBrian Kramer's official website\nPhoto Credits: Michel Verlinden, Chris Rees, Pelle Piano, P.

        "raw_content": "In the latest Barron\u2019s cover story, Jack Hough warns of the long-term risks of rising U.S. public debt. While noting that there\u2019s little chance of hitting debt-related turbulence anytime soon and that interest rates on U.S. Treasuries remain low, Hough says that complacency is a threat and that politicians have done little to avert a potential market upheaval:\nIf the party that has long branded itself as fiscally conservative\u2014and showed off a debt clock during the 2012 Republican National Convention, in a call to action\u2014now has little interest in containing deficits during good times, the result could be a costly backlash during the next bust.\nFormer Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin is among those quoted by Hough warning about the dangers of U.S. fiscal policy: \u201cI don\u2019t think bonds adequately reflect what at some point in the future, with high probability, will be trouble in bond markets and with interest rates, due to our fiscal situation,\u201d he says.\nThere are no easy fixes, Hough writes, but Rubin highlights the importance of slowing Medicare cost growth: \u201cIf you can reduce cost growth in Medicare and Medicaid, even without cutting entitlements, you\u2019re halfway there,\u201d Rubin says.\nBoosting federal revenues is the other key, Hough says, noting that back in the late 1990s, when Washington produced budget surpluses, annual tax receipts approached 20 percent of GDP. \u201cOver the next several years, that figure is expected to bottom at 16.4% before beginning to rebound\u2014if certain tax cuts expire,\u201d Hough writes.\nSubscribe to Barron\u2019s to read the full story and an accompanying interview with economist Stephanie Kelton, a leading proponent of a school of macroeconomics called modern monetary theory, who has a very different way of thinking about the deficit: \u201cSo can the deficit be too big? Of course! But can it be too small? Yes. And that\u2019s something you rarely hear people say. Or complain about it.\u201d\nSurprises are no fun when it comes to retirement, since few are unexpected windfalls. That\u2019s why financial advisor Erin...",

It says:\nThe national choice guarantees four national choice guarantees will be available to all women and their partners. By having these guarantees, women and their partners are given the opportunity to make informed choices throughout pregnancy, birth and during the postnatal period:\nChoice of how to access maternity care. When they first learn that they are pregnant, women and their partners will be able to go straight to a midwife if they wish, or to their General Practitioner. Self-referral into the local midwifery service is a choice that will speed up and enable earlier access to maternity services.\nChoice of type of antenatal care. Depending on their circumstances, women and their partners will be able to choose between midwifery care or care provided by a team of maternity health professionals including midwives and obstetricians. For some women, team care will be the safest option.\nChoice of place of birth. Depending on their circumstances, women and their partners will be able to choose where they wish to give birth. In making their decision, women will need to understand that their choice of place of birth will affect the choice of pain relief available to them. For example, epidural anaesthesia will only be available in hospitals where there is a 24 hour obstetric anaesthetic service.\nThe options for place of birth are:\nbirth supported by a midwife at home\nbirth supported by a midwife in a local midwifery facility such as a designated local midwifery unit or birth centre. The unit might be based in the community, or in a hospital; patterns of care vary across the country to reflect different local needs. These units promote a philosophy of normal and natural labour and childbirth. Women will be able to choose any other available midwifery unit in England.\nbirth supported by a maternity team in a hospital. The team may include midwives, obstetricians, paediatricians and anaesthetists. For some women, this type of care will be the safest option but they too should have a choice of hospital. All women will be able to choose any available hospital in England.\u201d\nIf you have to stand up to get your rights respected, there\u2019s also a Birthrights fact sheet that might help you prove your point.\nThis entry was posted in Uncategorised, Uncategorized and tagged childbirth, patient rights by bornstroppy.

        "title": "RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study",
        "raw_content": "See if the RADIANCE-HTN Study is right for you\nHypertension, or high blood pressure, affects over 1 billion people. Left untreated, high blood pressure can increase your risk of serious health problems such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure. Yet nearly 1 in 3 people with hypertension struggle to control their blood pressure despite being on medication.\nIf you\u2019ve been unable to control your blood pressure, or are interested in an alternative to daily medications, you may be a candidate for the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study. The study is evaluating a minimally-invasive, catheter-based procedure (the Paradise\u00ae Renal Denervation System) which may lower your blood pressure and reduce your need for blood pressure medications.\nBlood pressure is the force of blood against your artery walls as it circulates through your body. Blood pressure naturally rises and falls throughout the day, but it can cause problems if it stays too high for a long time.\nBlood pressure is controlled by a complex interaction of signaling from several systems within the body including the nervous system, circulatory system, and endocrine (hormonal) systems. The nerves running to the kidneys are especially important in the control of blood pressure. People with high blood pressure typically have overactive renal (kidney) nerves. It has been shown that calming these overactive nerves can help reduce blood pressure.\nWhat is the Paradise\u00ae Renal Denervation System?\u0003\nThe Paradise Renal Denervation system is designed to lower blood pressure by reducing over-activity of kidney nerves through a minimally-invasive procedure. A single, small incision is made in the groin. A small flexible catheter is inserted, and then placed in the artery/blood vessel supplying the kidney. Ultrasound energy (sound waves) is delivered to the tissue surrounding the artery for a few seconds. The ultrasound energy generates heat to decrease the over-activity of the nerves leading to the kidneys. Both kidneys are treated, and the device is then removed.\nWhat is the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study?\nRight now, doctors at select centers in the US, UK, Netherlands, France, and Germany are conducting a new research study to evaluate the ability of the Paradise Renal Denervation System to lower blood pressure (the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study). If you\u2019ve been unable to control your blood pressure, or are interested in an alternative to daily medications, this study may be right for you.\nThe Paradise Renal Denervation System may help reduce blood pressure without the need for medications. However, participants in the RADIANCE-HTN Study may also benefit from having their blood pressure condition closely monitored throughout the course of the study. In addition, study participants may receive evaluation of their renal (kidney) anatomy, which may help uncover previously undiagnosed abnormalities or narrowing of the renal artery. Lastly, the results of this study may help other people with high blood pressure in the future.\n1. What is the purpose of a clinical study?\nClinical studies (also called clinical trials) are used to learn about the safety and effectiveness of possible new medications, medical devices, and medical procedures. Although there are many types of clinical trials, all must conform to strict rules set by local health agencies. These rules help protect the rights and safety of those who volunteer to take part in clinical trials.\n2. What is renal denervation?\nRenal denervation is a minimally-invasive, catheter-based procedure designed to reduce blood pressure without medications. People with high blood pressure typically have overactive renal (kidney) nerves, and it has been shown that calming these overactive nerves can help reduce blood pressure. The Paradise Reneal Denervation system is an investigational device that uses ultrasound energy (sound waves) to decrease over-activity of these nerves.\n3. Are there any costs involved in the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study?\nIf you choose to join the study, you will receive all study-related care at no cost. This includes the Paradise Renal Denervation System and procedure, as well as any follow-up visits to your study doctor\u2019s office. You will also be reimbursed for your time and travel to attend these study visits.\n4. How long does the study last?\nIf you join the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study, your participation will last approximately 3 years. Following your procedure, you will return to your study doctor\u2019s office for 7 follow-up visits over the first year, and will then return for 2 additional annual visits. These visits are an important part of the study, as they allow your study doctor to closely monitor your individual results and experiences.\n5. What if I join the study and decide I do not want to participate anymore?\nAs with all clinical studies, your participation is completely voluntary, and you may leave the study at any time without any effect on your future medical care.\n6. Who is sponsoring the study?\nThe study is being sponsored by ReCor Medical, Inc. (www.recormedical.com), a global medical device company with offices in the US and Europe.\n7. I am interested in learning more. What\u2019s the next step?\nTo see if you might qualify for the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study, and to be referred to a study centre in your area, the next step is taking the pre-screening questionnaire. Please click here to get started.\nTo see if you might qualify for the RADIANCE-HTN Clinical Study, and to get connected directly with your local study centre to learn more, please take the questionnaire below.\nCAUTION: The ReCor Medical Paradise\u00ae Ultrasound System for Renal Denervation is investigational in the USA and is limited by Federal (or United States) law to investigational use. The ReCor Medical Paradise Ultrasound System for Renal Denervation is approved for commercial use in the EU.",

First Ishak Belfodil made it 2-1 with a scuffed finish, before Pavel Kaderabek\u2019s header brought the score back to 3-2. And then, with three minutes left on the clock, Belfodil scored his second to complete the most unlikeliest of comebacks. Dortmund had snatched a draw from the jaws of victory.\nAll of which allowed Bayern Munich to take advantage of BVB\u2019s slip-up in their own match against Schalke. The score in the end was 3-1 and, whilst it was not a stellar Bayern performance, it was enough to claim all three points and, in doing so, bring the gap to Dortmund down to five points.\nIt was also an important weekend at the bottom. Saturday saw a proverbial six-pointer between 17th placed Hannover and N\u00fcrnberg, who prop up the table. It was Hannover who claimed the victory by a 2-0 scoreline. Florian M\u00fcller, who was brought in on loan from Eintracht Frankfurt during the January Transfer Window, scored a brace. His first, a header in stoppage time of the first half, killed a N\u00fcrnberg side who were already up against it. They were reduced to 10 men in the 11th minute following a rash challenge from Simon Rhein. Things continue to go against the Bavarian side.\nBayer Leverkusen continue to impress, at least in the Bundesliga. The fans will have wanted a reaction following the disappointing defeat to FC Heidenheim in the DFB Pokal last Tuesday. And that is exactly what they got. It was a five-star performance from Peter Bosz\u2019s side, as they pummelled Mainz 5-1. The trio of Brandt, Havertz and Bellarabi all found the back of the net as the new manager continues to make use of his attacking talent.\nThe most surprising result of the weekend came at the Borussia Park, as M\u00f6nchengladbach were beaten 3-0 at home by Hertha Berlin. The side from the capital were inspired by Davie Selke, who played perhaps his best game in a Berlin shirt. It was Die Fohle\u2019s first home defeat of the season, as they had won all of the previous 10 up to that point.\nIt was also a good week for Werder Bremen, who comfortably dispatched Augsburg. Milot Rashica scored the first goal of the game after just five minutes, and was able to score his second after a Johannes Eggelstein strike before he needed to leave the field in the 36th minute due to a minor discomfort. It did not effect Bremen, however, with Kevin M\u00f6hwald adding the fourth and final goal in a 4-0 victory.\nThe matchday also saw Freiburg and Wolfsburg play out a thrilling 3-3 draw. Die W\u00f6lfe took the lead three times, but Freiburg were always able to draw level thanks to some, at times, lacklustre defending from their opponents. And Christian Streich and co could have even come away with all three points were it not for a controversial VAR call that ruled out a last minute header due to a passive offside.\nFor Markus Weinzierl, time may be running out, despite him only being appointed Stuttgart manager in October. His Stuttgart side lost 3-0 to Fortuna D\u00fcsseldorf this weekend, who have won five of their last seven. Sporting Director Michael Reschke confirmed that Weinzierl would not be sacked in the immediate aftermath of the game. Reschke, however, has since lost his own job with immediate effect. It will be interesting to see whether new man Thomas Hitzelsperger persists with Weinzierl in the coming weeks.",

        "raw_content": "\"What do you want to be when you grow up? A tourist!\" That's how future entrepreneur Irina Cernea used to answer, as a child, when people would ask her where she saw herself in 20 years. And not only has she become a tourist, but she has also become in charge of other people's tourist activities. As owner and general manager of Neotour Brasov, every day is a busy day: tasks to be fulfilled, responsibilities to be taken, customers to be satisfied and vacations to be planned.\nShe started her career with a courageous decision. \u201cNeotour Brasov is a franchise of Neotour Travel Agency, but with total freedom to choose its programs, its targets and its strategies. Neotour Brasov was founded in 2008 and, at first, it focused on vacation packages to Greece. I took over the management and ownership, and Radu Cernea, my brother, joined as a partner in 2015, after a major shift in the company\u2019s vision. Our aim now is to offer our Romanian customers active holidays worldwide, while revealing the natural highlights of Romania to the entire world,\u201d she told Business Arena in an exclusive interview. 2018 brought more complex challenges for the new entrepreneur. So, new times, new measures. \u201cThis year we are diversifying the area of activities that we offer our tourists, as well as the range of destinations. We have already added destinations like Mongolia, Sri Lanka, Antarctica or Armenia to our portfolio.\u201d\nRunning a travel agency requires more dedication, time and patience than most people might think, the company\u2019s manager said, and, in the end, it all narrows down to being passionate about tourism and having a real understanding of what tourism really means. \u201cIf you prefer an active holiday, if you fancy camping under a star-lit sky more than staying at an all-inclusive hotel, then you can start a business like this, if not\u2026 you\u2019d better stay away. People with a real understanding of what adventure tourism means would appreciate the kind of lifestyle I have listed above. If you love tourism, find your niche, find the right people - which is maybe the most important thing - and go for it. But do expect many difficulties to come along the way,\u201d she told Business Arena.\nIrina Cernea experienced the simple tourist lifestyle from a very young age and that created a solid base for the future tour operator. \u201cI traveled extensively with my parents throughout Romania, especially on trekking trips. Later, I became a member of the \u201cEmilian Cristea\u201d Tourism and Alpine Club in Ploiesti. I took part in my first international expedition in France, in 2002, on Belledonne and Mont Blanc. Many other mountain trekking trips followed, in Romania as well as in Greece, Macedonia, Morocco, along with sailing trips on the Baltic Sea. I firmly believe a travel agent shouldn\u2019t just sell a vacation, but they should become your lifetime friend who helps you choose the best holiday for you, according to your interests, your budget, your hobbies and passions,\u201d said the Neotour Brasov manager.\nFor her passion of travelling and helping others travel, she left her hometown without hesitation. Where can you better plan vacations for other people than in the heart of the mountains? \u201cI love tourism and everything related to the travel industry. It was the main reason I moved from Ploie\u0219ti, my home town, to Bra\u0219ov. In 2008, I had the opportunity to take over the Neotour franchise and, although I knew there would be a lot of challenges, I grabbed this opportunity with both hands.\u201d\nSo far so good, but the competition is tough and start-up businesses have to bring something new on the market or else they are absorbed by bigger players. Neotour Brasov had a vision and focused on a specific market segment, even if the beginnings were frail. \u201cWe started as a tour-operator for Greece and Bulgaria. We still offer vacations to Greece and Bulgaria to our loyal tourists, but our aim for now is to offer our customers adventure tours. We believe the adventure travel market will grow a lot in the future. While it is true that many Romanians still like to lie on the beach all day at an all-inclusive hotel, more and more people are looking for something different, such as a vacation where they can experience the authentic culture of the place and do some fun activity, such as hiking, cycling or mountain-biking. More and more customers put emphasis on the experience rather than the accommodation itself (that doesn\u2019t mean they aren\u2019t looking for decent accommodation though). This has shaped our image as a company a lot. People have started to perceive us as an adventure travel company more than a \u201cclassic holiday\u201d company. This is very encouraging for us, as it is what we have always wanted.\u201d\nInvestment and good management are key ingredients to any company\u2019s success, but Neotour Brasov likes to push things a little further to ensure it gets a bigger slice of the market share - meaning the company\u2019s people will try things themselves before recommending them to their customers. \u201cAs always, we will continue to invest time and money in finding good local partners and visiting the destinations we sell, finding the best routes, the best accommodation, as well as interesting and unique places. In order to provide good information to our tourists, it is very important for us to know the destinations we sell. This is why we have invested and will continue to invest in\u2026 visiting the destinations ourselves. This year, we have hired two new employees in order to develop both the outbound and the incoming departments. So, we are investing a lot of time, which is our most important resource, in designing the programs, finding the local partners and in talking to the tourists. In fact, we are travel consultants, not only sellers of vacations. Our approach is to provide tourists all the information about the chosen destination, the local food, local customs, and not just give them a brochure and sell them a vacation. That\u2019s the reason why most tourists become our friends.\u201d\nBut is this good enough in a competitive market, where strong tour operators come up with all sorts of strategies in order to bring more customers in their portfolios? Irina Cernea nods without hesitation: a good interaction with the client makes a difference on the market. \u201cWe offer tours for small groups, from four to 12 people, and we emphasize on communicating with our tourists. That is why our groups are accompanied by a Romanian guide or the individual tourists have our phone numbers, which we answer 24/7. Our tours can be customized, so the tourists can have a vacation as per their wishes. To put it in other words, compare buying a ready-made suit with having a tailor making a suit for you. That\u2019s what we do: we offer custom-made vacations to our customers.\u201d\nAsked if there is a segment in the company\u2019s activity expected to see more growth in the near future, Irina Cernea explained that it all depended on how customers saw their vacations and how the market evolved. \u201cWhen we talk about segments, we define segmentation by the type of activity or by destination. We really think, in time, fewer people will choose all-inclusive vacations in Greece, Bulgaria and Turkey, and more people will understand that life is too short to be spent lying on a beach in the sun and eating as much as possible. So, more people will go towards active vacations, and we don\u2019t mean hard-core adventure, like climbing Cerro Aconcagua or Elbrus. An easy cycling vacation or a sailing vacation, for instance, is what people will feel like trying more in the future and that\u2019s why we have already included these types of activities in our offer. This year we developed a new type of activity: cycling tours. This is why we expect the turnover to grow by about 25 percent this year.\u201d\nStill, what makes Romania different as a consumer\u2019s market as compared to western countries in terms of choosing a vacation or in terms of travelling culture? The mentality, the Neotour Brasov owner suggests. \u201cWe say it with a lot of regret: most Romanians want cheap vacations. For Romanians, the key element in selecting a vacation is its price. It happens almost every day. We have potential customers asking about our vacation packages and the first thing they look at is the price. The destination? It doesn\u2019t matter; the most important thing is to be cheap. Quality? It doesn\u2019t really matter. Many times they don\u2019t even want to know what a vacation includes, what we have to offer that is different. There is, however, a segment of people who understand that our time on this planet is the most finite resource that we have. We cannot spend it on cheap holidays where the only memory to come back with is the taste of the all-inclusive food. I think buying an experience, a memorable one, is becoming attractive for many. Other markets are more content-driven and tourists are more conscious about what they buy. \u201c\nConsidering this aspect, does Romania stand any chance of evolving and becoming a mature market in the near future? The Neotour Brasov management is very optimistic in that sense. \u201cI think the travel market in Romania will grow, based mainly on good connection flights. The potential of tourism in Romania is extremely high. I foresee an increase in domestic trips and also in inbound arrivals. No matter what, people will always travel. Maybe, sometimes they will choose a short holiday or a destination not so far from Romania, but they will travel anyway. So far, we have offered mostly vacations outside Romania, but starting this year we are offering more domestic destinations. We will begin with cycling tours, including cultural objectives. There are lesser-known, interesting places in Romania, which are not included in the offers of other travel agencies. We aim to include these places as well as active tours in our offer, as we have identified a big potential for growth here.\u201d\nA challenging market will always come with a lot of difficulties. Again, Irina Cernea lists the mentality of Romanian customers as the most pressing issue a travel agency has to deal with. \u201cThe perception of what a quality vacation really means and the low interest for organized trips (with guide, private transportation, local partners) are indeed difficult. Romanian tourists often choose to travel on their own, considering that kind of vacation cheaper than one organized by a travel agency. Many think that spending their own time looking for hotels, flights, local tour operators, restaurants and so on costs less than going on vacation using a travel agency. It is so untrue,\u201d says the general manager, who lists tourists\u2019 satisfaction as her main professional goal.\n\u201cOur aim is to offer tourists a memorable lifetime experience,\u201d she says. And when you are climbing on the highest peak and reaching the top of the world, any experience becomes a memorable one. That\u2019s why, Irina Cernea believes the most wonderful success she has accomplished with her company was a\u2026 trip. \u201cI could talk about the climb on Aconcagua, where five tourists and our guide reached the Aconcagua Peak, at almost 7,000 meters altitude, as the biggest achievement of our activity. To our knowledge, we are the only travel agency in Romania that managed to take a group of people to the Southern Hemisphere\u2019s highest summit last year. Considering the type of travel services that we offer, I can say that every satisfied tourist can be considered a success. But in this case, success won\u2019t depend only on the tourist or the guide, by also on the weather conditions,\u201d she says with a smile, adding that challenges never scared her anyway. \u201cChallenges are everywhere, anytime, such as hotels or guesthouses that don\u2019t want to work with travel agencies, airlines frequently cancelling flights, other agencies not respecting their agreements with tour operators and so on; but when you love what you do, any challenge is easier to solve. We are very lucky to have a great team, used to dealing with these kinds of problems, and really wanting to grow along with the agency.\u201d\nHaving tried out so many destinations herself, before recommending them to her customers, Irina Cernea has traveled throughout much of the world. But this positive, full-of-life entrepreneur confesses that she loves silence more than noise, the mountains and nature more than the city. \u201cI love hiking in the mountains, being in nature, listening to the singing birds, far away from the cities. If I\u2019m not in the mountains, I solve puzzles\u2026 this is my way of relaxing.\u201d\nAny destination recommendation for our readers? She shies away from making assumptions about what other people might like. She insists that each place has its own vibration, so each tourist should create their own memorable experience. \u201cSo far, I have traveled in Europe, Africa and Asia. It\u2019s difficult to choose a favorite destination, because every destination has something unique to offer. But I do love Sweden because I sailed there in the past three years, I love Morocco for the desert and the variety of its landscapes, I love Macedonia for its mountains full of flowers, I love Turkey\u2019s Cappadocia for the amazing landscape and\u2026 I love Romania for the nature, the mountains and the traditions.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "KWANTRENG v. AMASSAH AND OTHERS\nVAN LARE, SARKODEE-ADDO AND ADUMUA-BOSSMAN, JJ.S.C.\nMortgage?-Whether mortgagor has right to bring an action in respect of mortgaged property.Trusts?-Resulting trusts and advancement?-Deed of gift to daughter?-?\"Love and affection?\" as consideration?-Whether circumstances rebutted presumption of advancement?-Whether statements made by grantor in grantee?'s absence are admissible on issue of donor?'s intention.Practice and procedure?-Whether point of law arising on the record can be canvassed in the appeal court although it was not raised in the court below.Statutes?-Whether Statute of Uses, 1535 (27 Hen. 8, c. 10) is a statute of general application.\nOn the 8th June, 1955, K.A. Kwantreng executed a deed of gift of a certain house in Accra, the property here in dispute, to his daughter Kate. The deed recited ?\"love and affection?\" between the grantor and grantee as the consideration for the grant. Mr. Lokko, solicitor to Kwantreng gave evidence that this conveyance was executed despite his strong advice against it.The deed was stamped and submitted for registration on the 24th June, 1955, and on the 22nd August, 1955, the said property was mortgaged by Kate to the then Bank of the Gold Coast for 2,500. From then until the 1st January, 1957, Kate paid this money out to her father; her statement of account headed ?\"Papa?'s account?\" (exhibit Z) showed that she had in fact over-paid him 92 3s. 6d. With this money, Kwantreng completed an unfinished portion of the disputed property. Kwantreng also after executing the deed of gift continued to control the property and collect the rents.In June, 1957, Kwantreng died and it was discovered that he had by will attempted to dispose of the disputed property. Kate therefore instituted proceedings against her paternal sisters claiming declaration of title and an order of ejectment of the defendants from the premises.The defendants contended that the deed of gift was subject to a collateral agreement that Kate should hold the disputed property in trust for Kwantreng (who needed the money raised by the mortgage to complete the building) and should re-convey it to him upon repayment of the bank loan. The defendants counterclaimed that they were entitled to a declaration that Kate was ?\"trustee of the said property for the beneficiaries thereof named in the deceased?'s will.?\"The trial court held that the deed of gift was legal and binding and that Kwantreng could not therefore effectively dispose of the disputed property by will.On appeal to the Supreme Court, counsel for the defendants-appellants argued: (1) that Kate could not maintain an action for declaration of title since the property was still mortgaged and the legal title was vested in the bank, and (2) that at most, the deed of gift was a voluntary conveyance from father to daughter and that a legal and rebuttable presumption of advancement would arise; counsel further examined the evidence on record which he submitted rebutted this presumption and favoured a resulting trust. For Kate it was argued that: (1) since counsel for the defendants had stated in the court below that ?\"our case is not based on resulting trust; our submission is that the gift was made to Kate upon an express trust?\", it was not now open to him to raise and argue the question of a resulting trust; (2) that what Kwantreng was alleged to have said as to the collateral agreement was said in Kate?'s absence and not [p.242] evidence against her; and (3) as the deed of gift recited ?\"love and affection?\" as consideration between Kwantreng and Kate, and as that is recognised by the law as good consideration, it cannot be said that the conveyance was without consideration.\nAPPEAL from a judgment delivered by J. L. Minnow, Esq., Commissioner of Assize and Civil Pleas on the 31st March, 1960 (unreported) upholding the plaintiff?'s claim to declaration of title to certain land and an order ejecting the defendants therefrom. The facts are fully set out in the judgment.\nThe plaintiff?'s writ of summons was originally filed against Mrs. Mary Amassah (ne Armah Kwantreng) her paternal sister, both of them being daughters by different mothers of the late Kwamla Armah Kwantreng, a prominent citizen and well-known licensed surveyor of Accra who died, according to the evidence, in June 1957. The original defendant unfortunately died before trial of the action could commence, whereupon her eldest surviving daughter and duly appointed customary successor was formally substituted for her. Moreover, three other paternal sisters who claimed interest in the premises by virtue of a devise contained in the last will and testament of their late father, probate whereof was granted by the High Court on the 10th February, 1958, also applied and were duly joined as co-defendants.\nThe writ of summons was accompanied by a statement of claim which contained the following material allegations:\n?\"The subject-matter of this claim which is fully described in the writ of summons, was the self-acquired property of late Kwamla Armah Kwantreng (deceased) and was conveyed to the plaintiff by her late father by way of absolute gift, by a deed of gift executed by her said father Kwamla Armah Kwantreng (now deceased) on 8th June, 1955.\nThe defendant who had been living in the said house during her father?'s life-time and since his decease with the plaintiff?'s consent, has been exerting rights which are inconsistent with and amount to a denial of that plaintiff?'s title.\nThe plaintiff therefore claims as per her writ of summons.?\"\nThese allegations in the statement of claim were traversed with the same counter-allegations set out in three separate statements of defence filed on behalf of the defendant and the two co-defendants, as follows:\n?\"In answer to paragraph 3, the defendant says that by a deed of gift dated 8th June, 1955 the property was conveyed to the plaintiff by the said Kwamla Armah Kwantreng; but the defendant says that the said conveyance was made for the purpose of enabling the plaintiff to borrow money for the said Kwamla Armah Kwantreng who needed the money to complete the building on the very same land the subject-matter of the said conveyance.\nThe defendant says that there was a parol collateral arrangement between the deceased Armah Kwantreng and the plaintiff that the said plaintiff should hold the said premises in trust for him the said Kwamla Armah Kwantreng, and should re-convey the said property to him upon the repayment of the bank loan, such repayment to be made from the rents of the stores already on the said land.\nThat the plaintiff duly mortgaged the said property to the Ghana Commercial Bank, and paid to the deceased moneys wherewith deceased continued, as owner, to extend the buildings on the land the subject-matter of the alleged absolute gift.\nThe defendant denies as alleged in paragraph 4 of the statement of claim that she has been living in the said house with the plaintiff?'s consent since their father?'s death and says that the dispute between her and the plaintiff has arisen because the plaintiff since the deceased?'s death, has presumed to assert an absolute title to the said property in breach of her trust, and has proceeded with the completion of the deceased?'s buildings, despite requests that she should desist until the position in regard to the whole estate had become more fully appraised.\nBy way of counterclaim, the defendant claims a declaration that the plaintiff is a trustee of the said property for all beneficiaries thereof named in the deceased?'s will.?\"\nReply was filed on behalf of the plaintiff denying and joining issue generally on the allegations and formal counterclaim contained in the statements of defence, and thereupon the pleadings disclosed as the main issue for trial and determination the question whether or not the deed of gift relied on by the plaintiff was subject to the collateral agreement pleaded or set up in the statement of defence.\nThe learned commissioner when he considered the whole case after having taken all the available evidence, firstly, set out in his judgment the substance of the evidence of the plaintiff and her witnesses who, he considered, supported her, and then passed on to deal in the same manner with the evidence of the defendants and their witnesses. Thereafter he proceeded to express his considered views as follows:\n?\"Before dealing with the question as to the deed of gift, exhibit A, being legal and binding, I must remark that it is common knowledge that the devises and legacies in a last will and testament only become operative, come into force, at the death of the testator. There is no dispute as to the fact that late Armah Kwantreng made this deed of gift before he died . . . Now to the deed of gift?-Mr. Lokko, witness for the defendants made it quite clear that this deed of gift was made in spite of his advice against it... The defence does not deny the legality of the deed of gift but they contended that it was some sort of a trust for a specific purpose, the fulfilment of which could mean the re-conveyance of the property to their father and incidentally to his estate. They concede that they learnt this at a meeting called by the late Armah Kwantreng when Kate was present. Kate definitely denies being present at any such meeting, and there has been no evidence to convince the court that there was such a meeting at which she was present. From the evidence before this court, the only inference is that the sisters were worrying and harassing their father and he played up to them just to quieten them. In support of the alleged ?'arrangement for?' re-conveyance, counsel in his address has raised the question of the Statute of Uses. For an answer to this we turn to exhibit A itself, and since its execution is not in any way challenged, it must be deemed and accepted as expressing the intention of the grantor late Armah Kwantreng.?\"\nThe learned commissioner here refers to and cites the recitals and testatum portions of the deed of gift, exhibit A, and then concludes thus:\n?\"This clearly shows the intention to make a gift and he did do so. The property in dispute D.762/4, Beach Avenue, Accra, could not then be treated as forming part of the estate of the late Armah Kwantreng, even though it is mentioned in his last will. He parted with his title in this property before he died. The court therefore gives judgment in favour of the plaintiff declaring her to be the owner of the property D.762/4 Beach Avenue, Accra.?\"\nThe learned commissioner?'s views and conclusions thus expressed are challenged on a number of grounds set out in the formal grounds of appeal filed. Before turning to consider the arguments advanced on those grounds however, it seems necessary to comment on the manner in which the learned commissioner appears to have considered the case as a whole. That feature is this, and the language he uses makes it clear and plain?-that somehow his mind came to be very gravely deflected or diverted from the paramount issue in the case, which was the question whether or not the execution of the deed of gift of the premises (No. D.762/4) to the plaintiff, which was quite undisputed, was for the special purpose of enabling her to use the property in her own name to procure a loan of money from the bank, now the Ghana Commercial Bank, for her father to employ or use in completing the construction of the buildings on the land comprised in the said deed of gift. In his review of the evidence adduced on behalf of the defendants, the learned commissioner made reference to the fact that the affirmative of that question was the substance of the defendant?'s case, when he said this:\n?\"The defence put up is that exhibit A was made by the late Armah Kwantreng in favour of the plaintiff for a definite purpose, that of raising money from the bank to complete the house No. D.762/4 Beach Avenue, Accra; and that the intention of the late Armah Kwantreng was that the property should revert to him after such loan as would be raised from the bank for the completion of the house had been paid off by rents accruing from the house.?\"\nWhen he came to consider and weigh up the respective cases, however, his mind appears to have digressed from this main controversial issue, with the result that he made only a perfunctory and quite inadequate examination of the available evidence relating to it, and he made that inadequate examination because of a misapprehension as to the exact nature of the evidence or case of the defendants in respect of it, when he said as follows:\n?\"They (defendants) concede that they learnt this at a meeting called by late Armah Kwantreng when Kate was present. Kate definitely denies her being present at any such meeting, and there has been no evidence to convince the court that there was such a meeting at which she was present.?\"\nHe was under a misapprehension as to the case of the defendants on this point, because their evidence was not that they learnt or heard of the object and purpose of the deed of gift only at this meeting at which the plaintiff, Kate, was stated to have been present; but rather that the matter of the purpose of the making of the deed of gift was specially discussed at that meeting with the plaintiff in attendance when she admitted that purpose, of which the defendants, even prior to that meeting, had heard or learnt from their father who, however, repeated it at the meeting and thereby made it necessary for Kate then to admit it. He was under a misapprehension, in the second place, in appearing to have understood the defendant?'s evidence as amounting to the allegation that the collateral agreement as to the purpose of the making of the deed of gift was brought [p.246] into being or made only at that meeting when Kate was alleged to have been present, so that his finding that there was no such meeting with Kate present, implied that no such agreement as alleged was or could have been made, and he became absolved from examining other evidence adduced by the defendants towards establishing the collateral agreement, since, in point of fact, he failed to examine all other evidence not only of the defendants but of the plaintiff also, which pointed to the existence of that collateral agreement. His expressions during the course of his judgment indicating and pointing to the questions which he pondered over before arriving at his final decision, point conclusively to the fact that, as far as he was concerned, the crucial question all along was whether the deed of gift was legal and binding or not, when in fact there was no dispute as to the legality or validity prima facie of the said deed of gift. This is borne out by such expressions or utterances like the following:\n?\"Before dealing with the question as to the deed of gift exhibit A being legal and binding, I must remark that it is common knowledge that the devises and legacies in a will only come into force at the death of the testator.?\"\n?\"The defence does not deny the legality of the deed.?\"\n?\"Counsel in his address had raised the question of the Statute of Uses. For an answer to this, we turn to exhibit A itself; and since its execution is not in any way challenged, it must be deemed and accepted as expressing the intention of the grantor, late Armah Kwantreng;?\"\n?\"This [referring to certain passages of the deed, exhibit A which he cited] clearly shows the intention to make a gift, and he did do so.?\"\nThis apparent substitution in the learned commissioner?'s mind of the question of the legality and/or validity of the deed of gift, exhibit A, for that of the object and purpose of the making of the said deed of gift as the main or paramount issue in the case, seems to me to raise the first grave doubt as to the propriety, and/or soundness of his ultimate decision on the case.\nTurning now to the grounds argued, the first was that the plaintiff could not maintain the action for declaration of title in face of her own admission that the premises No. D.762/4 was mortgaged to the Ghana Commercial Bank and remained unredeemed at the date of the institution of this action. The legal title to the property was in the bank and the plaintiff could not therefore get a declaration of title, unless perhaps a declaration of the equity of redemption subject to the mortgage outstanding in the bank. It seems to me, however, that this argument stems from an oversight of the express provisions of section 86 of the Courts Ordinance,1 which was in force at the time of the trial of the action between January and March 1960, that:\n?\"In every civil cause or matter which shall come in dependence in any of the Courts, law and equity shall be administered concurrently... and in all matters in which there is any conflict or variance between the rules of equity and the rules of common law with reference to the same matter, the rules of equity shall prevail.?\"\nIn accordance with this express statutory declaration, it is the conception of the mortgagor?'s right in his mortgaged property which equity recognises, which has always prevailed, at any rate since the early 17th century when the question of the conflict between the two systems of common law and equity was settled, and before the Judicature Act, 1873, formally adopted the established rule and made it an express statutory enactment. As to [p.247] how equity regarded or recognised the interest of the mortgagor in his mortgaged property, this is made clear by the pronouncements in a number of cases. In the leading case of Casborne v. Scarfe2 Hardwicke, L.C., gave what has come to be accepted as the classic description of the equitable conception of the nature of the mortgagor?'s right or equity of redemption in these works:\n?\"An equity of redemption has always been considered as an estate in the land, for it may be devised, granted or entailed with remainders . . . and therefore cannot be considered as a mere right only, but such an estate whereof there may be seisin; the person therefore entitled to the equity of redemption is considered as owner of the land, and a mortgage in fee is considered as personal assets . . .\nThe interest of the land must be some where, and cannot be in abeyance; but it is not in the mortgagee, and therefore must remain in the mortgagor.?\"\nThis definition or description given by Hardwicke, L.C., sitting as a court of first instance subsequently received authoritative approval and adoption in the Court of Appeal in Heath v. Pugh3 in which Selbourne L.C. in the course of his judgment for the court (himself, Baggallay and Brett L.JJ.) after observing that: ?\"In equity (where this branch of our jurisprudence originated) the conveyance of the legal estate to a mortgagee was regarded as nothing more than a security for debt . . . As to the equity of redemption, it is sufficient to quote Lord Hardwicke?'s words in the leading case of Casborne v. Scarfe?\", then proceeded to cite and adopt the definition already set out. It appears clearly enough therefore that in the view of equity, the mortgagor, notwithstanding that he has divested himself of the legal estate or title in or to his land, remains nonetheless the owner of his land while mortgaged, at least until such time as he is duly divested of his right to redeem or of his equity of redemption, also. In Fisher?'s Law of Mortgages (6th ed.) para. 877, the mortgagor?'s position is thus described:\n?\"The mortgagor in possession may be described as one who, having parted with his estate remains [nonetheless] in possession at the pleasure and consistently with the right of the grantee, exercising the ordinary rights of property, including the right of . . . receiving rents for his use . . . [and] able to bring an action in respect of the mortgaged property against any one save the mortgagee.?\"\nThat right to bring an action in respect of the mortgaged property is exemplified in a number of authoritative decisions, e.g. Selleck v. Smith and Ors.4; Fairclough v. Marshall5 and Van Gelder Apsimon Coy. v. Sowerby, etc. Society.6\nThe observations of Bowen, L.J. in the last case are worthy of citation:\n?\"It seems to me that nothing can be clearer than that a man does not lose his right to protect his property against wrong doing by a stranger, simply because he has mortgaged it.\n. . . It is clear that a mortgagor does not lose his right to protect what is his own because he has created a debt and secured the debt by a mortgage of the property which he seeks to protect. If authority is required, which I hardly think that it is, to support the decision at which we have arrived, Fairclough v. Marshall appears to me to cover the present ground.?\"7\nIn face, therefore, of these authorities it seems clear that the first ground of appeal argued appears to have been misconceived and can obviously not be sustained.\nThe next ground argued was ground 3 to the effect that assuming that the form of the deed of gift was such as to grant or convey to the plaintiff the fee simple estate or absolute title in the premises No. D.762/4 (which however is denied) then in that case as the deed of gift exhibit A, is no more than a voluntary conveyance (i.e. one without any valuable consideration) from a father as donor to his daughter as donee, a legal implication or presumption of advancement would arise; the presumption, however, is a rebuttable one, and counsel referred to Snell?'s Equity (24th ed.) p. 150, para. 2, and the case of Fowkes v. Pascoe8 in support of his submission. He then passed on to refer to and examine the evidence on record which he contended went to rebut the presumption of advancement, and submitted that an intention on the part of the donor to benefit the plaintiff cannot reasonably be inferred from the whole evidence available. The reply of counsel for the plaintiff was to the effect that strictly speaking an argument on resulting trusts is not open to counsel for the defendants, for he stated expressly in the court below that: ?\"Our case is not based on resulting trust; our submission is that the gift was made to Kate upon an express trust?\". Even then, i.e. on the basis of an express trust, counsel conceded that a collateral agreement may be established by oral evidence, the burden being then upon the party setting up the same to prove it strictly. What the defendants did, said counsel, continuing his argument, was to allege that there was a meeting of the sisters and the nephew with their father at which the matter was discussed when the father said that the purpose of the conveyance to the plaintiff, who was in attendance at the meeting, was to enable her to raise a loan for him (the father) to complete the building of the house, and the plaintiff who was present then accepted or agreed to what the father said. Counsel referred to the evidence of the nephew, Mr. Quist, and of Mrs. Welsing, and pointed out certain discrepancies in them, and submitted finally that that being the evidence by which the defendants sought to establish the collateral parole agreement, the learned commissioner was justified in coming to the conclusion that he could not believe that the meeting took place at all at which Kate was present. Concluding, counsel submitted that what the deceased said to others in the absence of the plaintiff was not evidence against her; and that the learned commissioner rejected, rightly in his view, the story that plaintiff was present at any meeting and promised to reconvey the property. Counsel submitted finally that there was no satisfactory proof of the oral collateral agreement set up or relied upon by the defendants.\nBefore passing on to consider the merits of the respective arguments, it seems desirable in view of the fact that counsel on both sides referred us to so many authorities, to consider very briefly the main points of law raised in the arguments, beginning first with the points raised in the arguments of counsel for the defendants-appellants.\nThe passage in Snell?'s Equity (24th ed.) p. 153, which he cited reads thus:\n?\"Both the presumption of a resulting trust and the presumption of advancement can be rebutted by evidence of the actual intention of the purchaser. In these cases the court puts itself in the position of a jury, and considers all the circumstances of the case, so as to arrive at the purchaser?'s real intention; it is only where there is no evidence to contradict it that the presumption of a resulting trust, or of advancement, as the case may be, will prevail.?\"\nThe passage is obviously in point and clearly lends support to counsel?'s submission. As to the proposition stated by counsel that there is a presumption of advancement in the case of a voluntary conveyance by a parent to a child, which presumption, however is rebuttable, there is no doubt that the proposition is well established and supported by many authorities. It will be sufficient to refer to only one: Crabb v. Crabb.9 The facts in that case were that a father transferred a sum of stock from his own name into the joint names of his son and of a person whom both father and son employed as their banker to receive their dividends, and he told the banker to carry the dividends of the stock so transferred, as the same were received, to the son?'s account. Under this direction the dividends were enjoyed by the son as long as the father lived. Upon a dispute arising because two years after the transfer the father by codicils to his will made a different disposition of the stock, it was held that the son was entitled to the stock absolutely. Brougham L.C. in his judgment in the case referred to the applicability of the principle of gift or advancement to both the case of purchase in the name of a son, as well as the case of direct conveyance or transfer to the son, in these words:\n?\"in Taylor v. Taylor (1 Atkyn 386) decided a few years before, where a father had purchased land in his son?'s name, and taken possession himself, and continued to hold it and receive the rents and profits till his death, his Lordship (Hardwicke L.C.) decreed that the purchase was a trust for the son ... If, however, a purchase by the father, in the joint names of father and son, with the possession retained by the father, makes the transaction a gift to the son, surely this case of a transfer to the son and a stranger, though that stranger be the father?'s banker, cannot be less strong in favour of advancement.?\"10\nThe learned Lord Chancellor then proceeded to touch on the rebuttable aspect of the presumption in the following observations:\n?\"If Mr. Remingten (the stranger) had been only the father?'s banker, and not the son?'s, that circumstance would not be so strong to rebut or displace the ruling presumption of intention to give, as where the purchase was in the name, not of the father?'s banker, but of the father himself ... Nor ought it, in the present case, to be laid out of view, that when the banker applied to the testator for instructions the latter immediately told him to carry the dividends to his son?'s account. For these reasons, I am of the opinion that consols were a gift of advancement to the son.?\"\nA case decided in the opposite direction, where the court held that the ostensible gift to the child was held by him in trust for the father?'s estate is Re Gooch,11 a case where a father who had shares in certain companies transferred some into the name of his eldest son, and the question arose whether they were gifts to the son or whether he held as trustee for the father?'s estate. Kay, J. giving judgment said:\n?\"It is obvious that the son never anywhere says that the father told him that these shares were to be for his benefit... He says, in effect, that his father told him that he wanted him to have some occupation, and that therefore he should like him to be a director of these companies, and for that .... purpose was not, on this evidence, to give these shares out and out to the son. The purpose clearly was to provide the son?'s qualification ... I cannot distinguish this case from Childers v. Childers (4 De. G. J. 482; 3 K. J. 310) which was referred to during the argument. In the case Childers v. Childers the father transferred into the name of the son a certain piece of land in order to qualify him to be a bailiff on the Bedford Level Commission. He did not communicate it to the son, and of course the son received no part of the rent of the land, and the son died. It was submitted . . . that there was no declaration of trust at all to satisfy the Statute of Frauds. However, the difficulty did not impress [p.250] the judges for a moment, because they said the whole transaction showed that the purpose was qualification ... Therefore the son was trustee, and the trust need not be declared because it resulted to the father. So I say in this case. Here the purpose was qualification and nothing else\".12\nIt would seem to be reasonably clear therefore that the principles applicable in the cases of purchases in the name of children are equally applicable to the case of a direct gift to a child.\nTurning now to points of law raised by counsel for the plaintiff-respondent, counsel submitted firstly that it was really not open to counsel for the defendants to raise and argue the question of a resulting trust resulting from the transaction of the gift to the plaintiff, because counsel in the court below expressly disclaimed that the defendant?'s case depended upon a resulting trust and stated: ?\"Our case is not based on resulting trust. Our submission is that the gift was made to Kate upon an express trust?\". As to this, defendant?'s counsel has explained that what he did was to express reliance on resulting trusts as an alternative defence, and then stated to the learned commissioner that the main defence is that of an express trust. Counsel called attention to the fairly lengthy arguments he made on resulting trusts before the statement which counsel for the plaintiff now relies on and I am satisfied that defendant?'s counsel?'s explanation is a correct one. In any event the law seems to be now clearly established that a point of law arising on the record can be canvassed in an appeal court although it has not been raised in the court below. So in the case of Stool of Abinabina v. Enyimadu13 before the Board of the Privy Council, Lord Cohen delivering the judgment of the Board and having referred to the two grounds or points of law on which the decision appealed from was being challenged, proceeded as follows:\n?\"Neither of these points was taken in the West African Courts: ... but their Lordships consider that as they involve substantial points of law, substantive or procedural, and it is plain that no further evidence could have been adduced which would affect the decision on them, the Appellants should be allowed to raise them before this Board.?\"\nHaving regard therefore to the explanation of defendant?'s counsel and, in any event the state of the law, it seems to me the arguments on resulting trusts are properly before us for consideration. Learned counsel for the plaintiff next raised the legal question, that whatever the deceased said to others in the absence of the plaintiff was not evidence against his client by which the alleged collateral agreement can be proved against her. As to this, however, it seems to me that, the submission is contrary to a wealth of authority and I would refer only to a passage in the opinion of Simonds L.C. delivered in the House of Lords case of Shephard v. Cartwright.14 The learned Lord Chancellor first stated the law as to presumption of advancement and its rebuttable nature, as follows:\n?\"The law is clear that on the one hand where a man purchases shares and they are registered in the name of a stranger there is a resulting trust in favour of the purchaser; on the other hand, if they are registered in the name of a child or one to whom the purchaser stood in loco parentis, there is no such resulting trust but a presumption of advancement. Equally it is clear that the presumption may be rebutted but should not, as Lord Eldon said, give way to slight circumstances: Finch v. Finch (1808) 15 Ves. 43.?\"\nHe then proceeded to deal with the type of evidence which can properly be received towards rebutting the presumption in these words:\n?\"It must then be asked by what evidence can the presumption be rebutted; and it would, I think, be very unfortunate if any doubt were cast (as I think it has been by certain passages in the judgments under review) upon the well-settled law on this subject. It is, I think, correctly stated in substantially the same terms in every text-book that I have consulted and supported by authority extending over a long period of time. I will take, as an example, a passage from Snell's Equity (24th ed.) p. 153, which is as follows:\n?'The acts and declarations of the parties before or at the time of the purchase, or so immediately after it as to constitute a part of the transaction, are admissible in evidence either for or against the party who did the act or made the declaration... But subsequent declarations are admissible as evidence only against the party who made them, and not in his favour?'.\nI do think it necessary to review the numerous cases of high authority upon which this statement is founded. It is possible to find in some earlier judgments reference to ?'subsequent?' events without the qualifications contained in the text-book statement: . . . But the burden of authority in favour of the board proposition as stated in the passage I have cited is overwhelming and should not be disturbed.?\"\nIn accordance with the principles above expressed, as in that particular case there was no evidence as to the circumstances in which a father had allotments of shares in several private companies, which he and an associate had promoted, made to his three children, apart from the bare fact that the allotments had been made to the children in their respective names, the House of Lords held that the courts below had been wrong in admitting and acting on subsequent acts by him as evidence in his favour to rebut the presumption of advancement to his children. On the other hand, as indicated in the statement of the legal position by Simonds L.C. above set out, a long line of cases of high authority has settled that statements made at the time of, or contemporaneously with, the transaction, are admissible on the issue of intent one way or the other, and this without any qualification as to whether the party against whom the statement is intended to be used, was present when it was made or not. Indeed in almost all the cases, the child or wife, in whose name property is bought or transferred by a parent or husband is not even present and has no knowledge of the transaction initially; yet in every such case evidence of the circumstances of the transaction, including directions and instructions to solicitors and executive officers concerned with the execution of the transaction, has been admitted as a matter of course. (See Sidmouth v. Sidmouth,15 Christy v. Courtenay16; Williams v. Williams17; Marshal v. Crutwell,18 and In re Duke of Malborough; Davis v. Whitehead.19 The submission by learned counsel for the plaintiff, therefore, that statements made by the donor to other persons in the absence of the plaintiff are not admissible and relevant on the issue of the donor?'s intent, must be limited to statements subsequent to the transaction and not those contemporaneous with it.\nAnother point raised by learned counsel for the plaintiff was that exhibit A recites ?\"love and affection?\" between the grantor and donee as consideration for the grant of the property and that is recognised by the law as consideration, so it cannot be said that the conveyance is without consideration. The answer to this however is that it is true the law recognises ?\"love and affection?\" between blood relatives as consideration.\nThe law however distinguishes ?\"love and affection?\" as ?\"good?\" as opposed to ?\"valuable consideration?\" which precludes a trust from arising at all. Sir William Anson in his well known students text-book Law of Contracts (17th ed.) p. 95 explains that: ?\"The distinction between ?'good?' and ?'valuable?' consideration, or family affection, as opposed to money value, is only to be found in the history of the law of Real Property?\". The distinction is also dealt with in many text-books dealing with the law of trusts of property, and in one such book Keeton?'s Law of Trusts, at p. 74, the explanation is given that:\n?\"Valuable consideration in the law of trusts, as in the law of contracts, is some valuable thing assessable in terms of money, with the proviso that marriage, and also a forbearance to sue, are so considered; and therefore, wherever consideration of this type is present, the trust is not voluntary. The phrase ?'good consideration?' is sometimes used, as applied to natural love and affection, but this consideration, though ?'good?' is not ?'valuable?' and was only used for the purpose of rebutting a resulting use or trust.?\"\nLastly, on this question of consideration, reference need only be made to the case In re Duke of Malborough20 where the Duchess conveyed to her husband in consideration of natural love and affection, and it was held that the circumstances rebutted the presumption of advancement and left unimpaired the presumption of a resulting trust for her.\nI turn now to a consideration of the paramount issue of fact in the case and the merits of the prospective contentions of counsel on it. The contentions are, on the part of counsel on behalf of the defendants that the evidence as a whole does not favour or support an intention to make a gift or an advancement; but on the part of counsel on behalf of the plaintiff, that the evidence as a whole supports an intention to make a gift, and that no part of it seems adequate or sufficient rather to establish the collateral agreement set up so as to displace the prima facie gift disclosed in the deed of gift, exhibit A. Consideration of the whole evidence, it is hardly necessary to say, must be in the light of the principles disclosed in and by the cases to which reference has been made hitherto.\nIn embarking upon this consideration or review of the evidence as a whole, and taking a broad general retrospect of it, one becomes at once forcefully struck by the circumstance that, apart from the evidence afforded by the deed of gift, exhibit A itself, there is little or nothing else beside to support the plaintiff?'s case of an intention to benefit her personally. By contrast, the circumstantial evidence against an intention to give beneficially but in favour rather of a trust, appears to be overwhelming. There is firstly the evidence of Mr. Lokko as to the donor?'s declaration of his object and purpose in desiring the declaration A to be made. It is significant that like the legal adviser or solicitor in the case of In re Duke of Malborough Mr. Lokko advised against the proposed conveyance, but the client insisted on carrying out what he had conceived in his own mind. It seems clear from the learned commissioner?'s references to Mr. Lokko?'s evidence in his judgment that he accepted and believed the same. He, however, whether wittingly or unwittingly, completely overlooked its relevancy and significance on the issue or question of the donor?'s intention. In the light, however, of the authorities which recognise declarations contemporaneous with the transaction as admissible and relevant on the question of intention, it [p.253] is beyond question that the cogency and significance of Mr. Lokko?'s evidence as to the donor?'s explanation of his object and purpose in making the proposed deed of gift, cannot be over-rated.\nNext, there is the plaintiff?'s own conduct which followed so closely after the execution of the deed of gift to her that it might well be taken as constituting part of the transaction. But even if it is not proper to consider the whole conduct as forming one transaction with the obtaining of the deed of gift, it seems to me to satisfy the test of subsequent conduct detrimental to one?'s own interest and therefore admissible against her on that basis. That conduct on her part was that almost immediately after obtaining the deed of gift dated 8th June, 1955, and getting it stamped and submitted for registration by the 24th June, 1955, she appears to have commenced negotiation for a loan facility at the then Bank of the Gold Coast, with the result that on 22nd August, 1955, she executed an indenture of mortgage granting the premises the subject of the alleged gift to her to the bank as security for placing the sum of 2500 at her disposal (see exhibit W, Mr. Lokko?'s bill for services in preparing the mortgage, and exhibit X, the indenture of mortgage). Then on the same day on which the bank placed her in the position of being able to draw up to the amount of 2500 secured by the deed of mortgage, she in effect manifested herself as being her father?'s agent in respect of the amount and paid out to him the substantial sum of 600. This was followed by further disbursements out to the father, or payments out on his account and behalf, from time to time during the period from the 22nd August, 1955, to the 1st January, 1957, at the end of which period he appears to have withdrawn or used up every penny of the amount of 2500 made available by the bank to the plaintiff, so that he (the father) came to be rather owing the plaintiff the sum of 92 3s. 6d. as an over-payment on his behalf. The details of these disbursements were set out by the plaintiff herself in a statement of account bearing the most significant description ?\"Papa?'s account?\" prepared and submitted by the plaintiff to her said late father (see exhibit Z). It seems unnecessary to point out how this significant conduct of arranging an accommodation facility with the bank by means of the deed of gift coming so soon after the execution of the deed of gift, confirmed Mr. Lokko?'s testimony and spoke more eloquently, even perhaps than the donor could have done if he had been alive, of the arrangement and understanding under which the deed of gift was made.\nThe plaintiff tried to explain this virtual loan transaction and the admitted use of a substantial part of the money obtained from the bank in the construction of the buildings on the land in dispute by saying she obtained the money for herself and arranged for her father to act as her agent to see to the construction of the buildings for her. Unfortunately for her, she is decisively discredited and exposed by her own written matter which discloses beyond question that she regarded and conducted herself as her late father?'s agent in obtaining the money, holding it for him, and paying it out to him or as he directed from time to time until the whole amount was completely paid out, and she rather found herself a creditor for her father?'s in respect of the items of over-payment set out in the statement, exhibit Z, as ?\"owing?\" to her by her father. From every point of view that statement of account exhibit Z is so cogently decisive of the paramount issue of fact for determination in this case, that it appears unnecessary to review in any detail other pieces of material evidence which also tend, not only to refute the legal presumption, but to discredit the definite assertion which the plaintiff made in the course of her evidence [p.254] that her father intended and meant to benefit her and expressly declared the transaction embodied in exhibit A to be an absolute gift to her in appreciation of certain financial assistance which she gave him in the past. Such other evidence need only be mentioned cursorily and that is the circumstance that, apart from carrying on with the completion of the uncompleted portion of the premises with part of the money obtained by the plaintiff from the bank on his behalf to which we have already made reference, firstly, her father in the interval between the execution of the deed of gift on the 8th June, 1955, and the execution of the mortgage to the bank on 22nd August, 1955, collected the rents of the premises; and secondly, he continued in complete control of the premises occupying it with his other daughters, dependants and the nephew Quist, and also directing the occupation and use of the premises in exactly the same manner as prior to the execution of the deed of gift and as though it had not been made at all. This state of affairs the plaintiff not only accepted, but confirmed as being the true state of things by her conduct in openly holding out herself as being nothing more than as her father?'s agent in obtaining the money which she held at his disposal and in paying it out as and when he requested, as clearly established by her own statement of account exhibit Z. In these circumstances I am quite satisfied, after carefully examining the whole of the evidence available in this case that the deed of gift, exhibit A, was made for the plaintiff only for the purpose which she herself by her own conduct during her father?'s lifetime, as from the date of execution of the document till his death, so clearly and unequivocally admitted, namely, the sole purpose of using the property in her name to raise the loan primarily for the completion of the buildings on the land, as in fact the money obtained was actually used in doing. I therefore find the main contention of counsel for the defendants-appellants that the evidence as a whole does not support an intention of a gift to the plaintiff, clearly and well established, and I would uphold the same.\nHaving come to that decision on the main issue of fact raised in the case, it does not seem to be necessary to deal with and give a definite decision on the last ground of appeal argued, as to whether the Statute of Uses, 1535,21 is in force in this country as to make it necessary for the same technical words of limitation which must be used to convey or grant a fee simple in England, to wit, the words ?\"unto and to the use of A and his heirs?\", to be used in the conveyance of an absolute title to land in this country. I would only make the observation that it seems difficult to conceive of how an enactment of such fundamental importance in English conveyancing law and practice as the Statute of Uses, cannot be applicable anywhere where English conveyancing form is adopted or employed, and that local conveyancing practice as carried on from the days of the earliest legal practitioners, like the Hon. John Mensah Sarbah and others, up to date, would seem to negative the suggestion that the Statute of Uses has no operation locally when English conveyancing forms are employed. As already indicated however, it is unnecessary definitely to decide the point in connection with the determination of this appeal.\nIn the result I would allow the appeal and set aside the judgment of the learned commissioner and substitute therefore a judgment for the defendants on the plaintiff?'s claim, and enter judgment decreeing title to the property in dispute in the plaintiff as a trustee for herself and all the beneficiaries named in the will of the late Kwamla Armah Kwantreng, including the defendants and co-defendants as claimed by the latter in their counterclaim.\nJUDGMENT OF SARKODEE-ADDO, J.S.C.\nK.

        "raw_content": "Disciple of the Dog \u2013 Scott Bakker\nThe pain with this book more than reading it is trying to write a review. How to frame it? It left me reeling for sure. There are a number of ideas explored that seemed to echo with some my own thoughts pre-existing the book, this further reflected toward the end of the book by a strong in and out of text deja-vu whose implications are far too tangled for me to make any sense of them (I should also try to second-guess some that Bakker did, that would bring a whole new level of complication). Just to say: the book messed a bit with my head. But that was almost expected, knowing well the kind of writer. The blending in and out of character, in and out of the book, and between facets of different characters echoing each other is a prevalent defining trait.\nI\u2019ll try to introduce things. This is a lean book, 249 pages, written in first-person by a private detective that at once fills the canon and pushes it beyond extreme. Bakker is the kind of writer that when sees a boundary pushes down on the accelerator. What\u2019s absolutely banished and tabu is any idea of moderation or compromise. But in the beginning we have the broke and cynical private detective with his filthy office next a filthy road, who fucks his secretary and is a smartass all around. Very anti-hero. Very pulpy, very effective in positioning itself in a category easily recognizable. The story in the book will be about investigating the case of a missing attractive young woman that was caught in a religious cult of weirdos who think the world is about to end and that everyone of us is only playing a role on the stage of a fake theater. All Matrix-like (including the technology, but don\u2019t focus on this distracting element). The catchphrase supposed to sell the book is: \u201cImagine being able to remember everything you\u2019ve ever experienced.\u201d That\u2019s the peculiarity of our detective but, voided of its implications, only sounds as quirky and not all that potentially intriguing. I\u2019m sure the cult\u2019s belief is much more seductive for the occasional reader.\nComing from this perspective the core of the book is in how the two aspects feed and become mirrors of each other. We have different layers that repeat the same idea, we have parts of the books that repeat, we have characters that repeat, and we have \u201crepeat\u201d as an concept thoroughly developed. Having a \u201cperfect\u201d memory here isn\u2019t the meta-device for the unreliable narrator, its implications are much more far reaching and pervasive. It messes with reality, it lifts a veil, it reveals what one won\u2019t be able to endure and adapt to. It\u2019s a door. Once you pass through the threshold there\u2019s no way of coming back. It\u2019s THE enlightenment:\n\u201cPsycho? What do you think happens when God \u2013 the God Almighty \u2013 lands in your brain? You think you stay sane? Read your Bible, bitch. All his vessels crack. All of \u2019em!\u201d\nOnly that is one, of the many, false trails. One twisted mirror. A hint of truth dressed as the blatant lie. It puts in the seed of suspicion and lets it soak. This books actively manipulates you, and it does it blatantly as more subtly at the same time, without you noticing it. One consequence of having a perfect memory, the one that is the most representative of its unsettling potency, is about the perception of \u201cpeople\u201d, as I already described it:\nWe, \u201cnormal people\u201d, perceive expressions and attitudes of others like something transitory, while the people themselves are real and come first. But for him, his perfect memory makes him recognize the same expressions and attitudes across different people, to the point that it\u2019s those expressions that he recognizes and categorizes, while the people themselves become transitory. People that appear as collections of deja-vus and known patterns. People that repeat. Masks. Oblivious actors playing a role, rehashing over and over.\nThe perfect memory is a bug in the system. An error. A joke the nature played on him. Birth defect. As a human he simply does not function correctly. But what if this condition reveals a truth that wasn\u2019t supposed to be disclosed? What if this truth is too painful to endure? What happens if you lift the veil of reality and watch in horror what\u2019s beyond? What if there\u2019s no way to pull it back down and pretend you haven\u2019t seen anything? \u201cAll his vessels crack.\u201d\nBakker is more known as a fantasy writer. \u201cThe Prince of Nothing\u201d series I\u2019ve recently started to read. Facing Disciple Manning, the cynical detective of this book, is the same as facing Kellhus, the prophet from The Prince of Nothing. In the prologue of that book Kellhus meets Leweth, a guy living a solitary life in a forest. In the short time they pass together Kellhus \u201clifts the veil\u201d on Leweth\u2019s life and makes him realize that his life was all built on lies he fabricated by and for himself. With that realization comes the death.\nIgnore the Merge sign long enough, and sooner or later somebody gets killed.\nTruth destroys, it doesn\u2019t heal. Breaks you. Forgetting is healing. Even the idea that \u201ctruth\u201d is desirable is a conceit, a lie we tell ourselves. The point is: we are hardwired to be stupid, to be hypocrite. Hypocrisy implies a certain amount of forgetfulness. To forget all those things that can\u2019t be manipulated to our own advantage. The brain shields from truth, it has safety triggers so that we can lead a functional life. Truth instead has the power to \u201cdislodge\u201d. The insight you gain is dangerous and may well destroy you. Once it\u2019s done there\u2019s no Matrix-like blue pill that can save you. You stop working the way you\u2019re supposed to, think out of the frame and you\u2019re doomed. You bit the apple from the Tree of Knowledge: God hates you. (Hint: David Foster Wallace didn\u2019t survive himself, Hal in Infinite Jest freaks out once he becomes too aware and can\u2019t sort things anymore. People break all the time when they start seeing too much. Insomnia is the state of the mind when it works too well for its own sake.) Living with a perfect memory corresponds to see the horror, without pause. Every instant. You can\u2019t filter, sort, select, reinterpret. You can\u2019t find a way out that makes life and suffering bearable. You can\u2019t find meaning, belief or excuse. There\u2019s no place to hide from yourself.\nReading this book is like having a face down directly with Kellhus. With the difference that you do not have a Leweth playing as a filter, here Kellhus/Disciple talks directly with you and his \u201csocial commentary\u201d will stick needles in your skin. He is an ass, he is egocentric, he is arrogant:\nI sit in perpetual judgment.\nBut it\u2019s through understanding that you see all the flaws as necessary and justified. Stepping back, it\u2019s like Bakker himself is trying to pick flaws in his reasoning, try every possible perspective to find a breach, whether through cold reasoning or through defiant irreverence and constant scorn, but the result is all the same.\n\u201cThe Framers\u201d is the name of this religious cult and their belief becomes a very slightly distorted version of what Disciple represents. They have two opposite stances, him and the cult, appear as adversaries of opinions, but soon you\u2019ll see how the two different perspectives overlap and match almost perfectly. Disciple sees people as actors and collections of deja-vu. Self-deluding machines who build their own conceits and prosper in false belief. The Framers believe that everyone is an actor with no perception of the actual \u201ctrue self\u201d. The difference is merely in context and visualization. Where Disciple stops at showing the conceit without providing answers, The Framers \u201cdress\u201d it and contextualize: the world is about to end and we live a dream as the only way to escape.\nI\u2019m aware that Bakker\u2019s first effort out of the fantasy genre, Neuropath, was criticized because it was too much \u201ctheory\u201d and not enough story and characters. As if reading like a textbook. What Bakker achieves in this book is about soaking the theory into something concrete and available as direct experience. You don\u2019t have to chase the writer through pindaric flights that are hard to follow, everything is grounded in the matters at hand, contextualized, practical and pragmatic. This book drops all frills and decorations, all diversions and derails, it goes straight to the point. Its strength is in the lack of hypocrisy that is built-in the narrative voice. The writing is teeth and nails, it goes for the bone. It\u2019s stripped of everything superfluous and that way it\u2019s much more effective and searing than his fantasy series. It goes to the point in the first three pages, that work like a manifesto for the rest of the book. This to say: it can\u2019t feel any more authentic and direct. It pulls no punches.\nOn the other side, the type of journey isn\u2019t that of typical thriller even if all the elements of typical thrillers are all present, done cleverly, and fully delivered, including a number of surprises and reversals in the last few pages (20 pages from the end one feels hanging from too many threads, but they are all wrapped up neatly, while also leaving space for thought once the book is finished). It\u2019s still heavy in introspection and the plot itself moves slowly. Most of the surprises that build the bigger block of the book are all on the very subtle side, while true surprises that bend the plot only come to enliven the finale. What drives the book and makes it so brilliant that it won\u2019t possibly bore is the \u201cinsight\u201d, the depth and incisiveness of observation, and, especially, the sense of humor that holds all of this together. A sense of humor that is obviously nailed on the character, so filled with cynicism, awful puns and shocking, outrageous commentary.\nI\u2019d say that this is one of the most, if not the most, extraordinary books I\u2019ve read. Literally. Extra-ordinary. Far from whatever you may have read up to this point. You just can\u2019t find (easily?) a book like this and I can imagine it won\u2019t easily find its public. Not everyone likes to be punched right in the face. Many, and it\u2019s not a fault, read to be lulled, Bakker instead messes with you and tries everything he can and then more to shake the reader. His writing is subversive to the core, outrageous and irreverent. Filled with venom. Disciples says as much: \u201cI\u2019m not safe. I\u2019m poison.\u201d And he doesn\u2019t do this as a tease, but because it\u2019s true: you\u2019re warned. This book lifts a few veils, it all depends if you really want to see what\u2019s beyond. There are risks. It isn\u2019t fun, and it\u2019s not pretty. There is also a dearth of answers.\nGod\u2019s greatest trick was convincing the world that belief was hard.\nThe Red Tree \u2013 Caitl\u00edn R. Kiernan (revised version)\nAnother attempt at polishing the review I\u2019ve written. I usually adjust a few things after I post one but in this case I was less satisfied than usual because I gave too much importance to certain aspects and almost ignored others that I think are more important. The biggest problem was that I wrote my comments just an hour after finishing the book and I started to understand the book better while writing those comments, which caused them to be even more rambling than usual. So I\u2019ll do some cut & paste and restructuring.\nThe framework first. \u201cThe Red Tree\u201d is a supernatural, horror, psychological journey that borrows heavily from the long and solid tradition in the respective genres and whose best parallel in themes, atmosphere and development is Lovecraft. It is not conceived or delivered as an homage or imitation, it\u2019s not a book existing in a \u201cshadow\u201d of something else, nor it is one that uses conventions to break out of their prison and open on a new, \u201cmodern\u201d world. What it achieves is about recovering the deeper and most powerful elements of that tradition and reveal that they are not dusty, opaque and antique, but still alive today, relatively uncompromised. The book is structured in a way similar to Danielewski\u2019s House of Leaves, with nested texts, stories within stories, and dreams that leak into reality. So it\u2019s up to the reader to take an active role and second-guess and interpret/rebuild what is going on. The basic form is the diary so everything comes through an unreliable narrator and a fragmented narrative that can leave gaps of days and then only re-interpret and fictionalize what happened. Without another authoritative point of view the reader can only cling to the voice of the diary, trust it, and go through the most unnerving parts as in a first-person narration, making it quite effective. All this is at the same time simplified and complicated by a strong meta-narrative. If one gives a look online (and yes, you\u2019re supposed to, I\u2019ll explain why) would discover that Caitl\u00edn R. Kiernan has more than a few analogies with Sarah Crowe, the fictional writer of the book. Both are lesbian writers who had to deal with the death of their partner, both suffer from epileptic attacks that add another dimension of precariousness to the story. I don\u2019t want to delve further because I feel like invading a personal space and the boundary between reality and fiction is best left blurred. Yet I think a reader should be aware of this layer as it offers a way to better understand the implications and the origin of the book. No book prescinds from its writer, and here this fact is particularly important.\nThe semi-autobiographical story is about this alter-ego fictional writer, Sarah Crowe, who is fleeing from her former life in Atlanta to rent an house in the countryside of Rhode Island. Without the motivation or the focus to start writing a long postponed novel, she begins instead keeping a diary mostly to describe some weird, unpleasant dreams that are haunting her. After exploring the basement of the house she discovers an incomplete manuscript next to an old typewriter. The manuscript is written by \u201cDr. Charles Harvey\u201d, a name she\u2019s never heard, so she \u201cgoogles\u201d it and finds out it belongs to a professor who \u201cwas on an extended sabbatical from the university, supposedly writing a book on the evolution and propagation of fakelore\u201d. A professor with \u201can interest in urban legends and occultism\u201d who lived in that house for three years, and died in the property by hanging himself. The title of his manuscript and research is the same that is shared between these three layers, \u201cTHE RED TREE\u201d. Title respectively of Kiernan\u2019s book, of Sarah Crowe fictional diary, and of Harvey\u2019s unfinished manuscript. Soon the bits of legends Sarah reads seep into her reality and slowly build an estrangement from the \u201creal\u201d world. This red tree being a huge oak tree not too far from the house, becoming Harvey\u2019s former and Sarah\u2019s current obsession. One doesn\u2019t even have to speculate the woman will likely share the previous tenant\u2019s fatal destiny as that is already spoiled right in the introduction of the book. It\u2019s a descent into madness when the solid reality under one\u2019s feet starts to crack and give way. The \u201cabscess\u201d that opens and swallows, and that one\u2019s too frightened to look into.\nThe ideal spook story would then end with a plausible rationalization that explains everything but with the supernatural element still very possible and not completely fended off. The reader left wondering if it was all true or not, and so the resulting haunting ambiguity. All this stays true to this book. While I was reading I kept waiting for some reversal of canons that would bring novelty and would justify the great praises the book received, but that didn\u2019t come. Or it didn\u2019t come from the direction I was expecting it. The story stays well within the canons, it\u2019s not a \u201cmodern\u201d interpretation in its structure. It doesn\u2019t drop some classic conceits: it appropriates the canons. And that is where it hits. It\u2019s about looking straight into the darkness and understanding it. The horrors of the book are always perceived and off the page, just out of the corner of the eye, never completely undeniable. The idea of movement, of sounds, of impossible perspectives. As a teenager I fed so much on the horror genre that nowadays it hardly has anything to offer. The \u201cpsychological\u201d horror is a concept that I know quite well but it is how it is used to determine its power. Whether or not the \u201croots\u201d feed on something true or just a weak conceit. The strength of this book is about knowing those roots and, instead of obfuscating, reveal the original darkness that can\u2019t be defeated by modernity. That it\u2019s still not even notched today. Whether it\u2019s written by Lovecraft of Kiernan, the source is the same and ageless.\nI try to avoid spoilers and I\u2019ll say that by the end of the book I was busy trying to put together the pieces of the puzzles. Turning the last page doesn\u2019t mean closing the lid. The book won\u2019t be done with you and will continue to haunt. You\u2019ll have to deal with contrasting interpretations and contradictions, with pieces that don\u2019t fit or that you can\u2019t place. Maybe, if you like me have a necessity to strictly define a space, feel frustration because the story defies control and because rationalization is here antidote to comprehension, as it would be in a dream. The book requires and forces a certain readjustment to be understood. But it is important to say that these details of the plot are just a surface. The desire to pin down even the smallest thing. The overall purpose, I think, would be clear. The real explanation is one that contains the different ones within, because at the core there\u2019s the human soul, and the darkness within. What one does or doesn\u2019t make of it. What you can\u2019t push down and deny or forget.\nSarah\u2019s isn\u2019t alone in this journey, and of this I was thankful since it would have risked of making the story too oppressive and hostile. The wonderful strength of the writing is to be appreciated the most in the description of human relationships, and all the meaningful complexities that come out of them. Constance, a character sharing certain sensibilities with Sarah while also being almost her opposite, will soon join her in the house and the relationship building between them is maybe the best aspect of the book. A relationship devoid of idealization as Sarah\u2019s character is cynic and caustic, often her attempts to reach Constance leading to both of them getting hurt and further apart in spite of necessity. Sarah and Constance won me before everything else and I was wondering how the book would proceed if I continued to be so weirdly biased toward the mundane while having very little interest for the supernatural aspect. I think that this effect was intended because it\u2019s from those relationships that the meaningfulness of the story is entirely derived. Consequences. On the foreground stay these characters, their relationship, their truth. There\u2019s some sex, written well for once, not too graphic and yet not embellished or mystified as it always happens. It should be better to say that there\u2019s honesty, and that sex is part of that honesty, and, being that, it becomes extremely important. The language is modern and tight, the voice surprisingly authentic. There\u2019s no use of classical language or rhetoric or fancy flourishes. It doesn\u2019t read like a dusty old tome. This even affects the plot, while Sarah can be seen as the typical solitary character stranded in a mysterious house, she still has internet, looks up things she needs, goes back to the town and library various times, receives calls from her editor who asks if she\u2019s well and is progressing with her book, travels on a car for a couple of days with Constance. There are no artificial boundaries to contain Sarah\u2019s story, if not those entirely made by herself. I even interpreted this \u201cfreedom\u201d of breaking through certain rules as a hint to the reader: explore, look things up online if you feel like missing something. The book can be as well enhanced by what\u2019s outside. Do not worry to step out of the page. The darkness will be kind enough to follow you.\nThe supernatural aspect comes up with more strength toward the end of the book, obviously, but it does so in an unexpected way. It\u2019s the mundane to become horror, and it\u2019s one own feelings to open on the pit no one dares look into. The darkness is the human being. Or, to quote Bakker, the darkness comes AFTER:\nIt\u2019s only after that we understand what has come before, then we understand nothing. Thus we shall define the soul as follows: that which precedes everything.\nSuperstition. Everywhere and in everything, Leweth had confused that which came after with that which came before, confused the effect for the cause. Men came after, so he placed them before and called them \u201cgods\u201d or \u201cdemons.\u201d Words came after, so he placed them before and called them \u201cscriptures\u201d or \u201cincantations.\u201d Confined to the aftermath of events and blind to the causes that preceded him, he merely fastened upon the ruin itself, men and the acts of men, as the model of what came before.\nBut there\u2019s obviously some ambiguity, embraced by alternative interpretations and whatever you decide it to be. The darkness comes \u201cafter\u201d, produced and shaped by men. Belonging to them. As well its opposite, the darkness comes \u201cbefore\u201d, something inhuman, eternal, absolute. Universal. Ageless. Meaning that Sarah\u2019s hallucinations were real and used her as a vehicle. But at this point the journey has already become so personal for the reader that even the last answer becomes entirely personal. The descent into madness is proportional to clarity and self-awareness. That\u2019s another unconventional and unexpected aspect of the book. The \u201cunreliable narrator\u201d is a device presented in a self-aware way, used to give the text that ambiguity that keeps the disparate interpretations plausible at the same time. But toward the end this unreliable narrator becomes the only authoritative guide. One assumes that madness corresponds to a loss of contact with truth, but here the whole meta-narrative becomes clear in the mind of the character and she even seems to mock herself for it, and maybe it\u2019s this to provide a way to escape madness by sacrificing an envelope to it.\nIt\u2019s quite an awesome book that should be read even outside its genre. I enjoyed the characters and the style of writing so much that I would have loved it with or without the supernatural aspects. I love how painfully truthfully it is written. A kind of desperation that destroys any attempt for embellishment or rhetoric. Even WITHIN fiction:\nI am usually at my most brutally forthright when making shit up. That\u2019s the paradox of me. And having lied, it doesn\u2019t mean that I was necessarily dishonest.\nA book whose stronger aspect is, paradoxically, the demystification. And, maybe, literature as a form of therapy. One of the most emotionally involving and authentic novels I\u2019ve read.\n(the cover shown here IS NOT representative of content. Buy the book with your eyes closed, if you have to)\nI don\u2019t know what to write here. I was hoping the last 120 pages of the book would offer me a better direction for my comments but I\u2019m even more troubled now that I finished the book. I also read a few things online about some suspects I had and, finding them true, I blame myself for having doubted of their relevance. So I have this whole new point of view and interpretation that should have been there from the beginning.\nLet\u2019s put down the framework first. \u201cThe Red Tree\u201d is a kind of supernatural, horror, psychological journey that borrows heavily from the long and solid tradition and that recovers and updates what made Lovecraft \u201cwork\u201d. Not an homage or imitation, but the revelation that what built those genres is still well alive and relatively uncompromised. It\u2019s the first book I read of Caitl\u00edn R. Kiernan but I soon discovered I had also read some comics written by her so many years ago that I don\u2019t remember anymore anything specific about them (The Dreaming). The book is structured in a way somewhat similar to Danielewski\u2019s House of Leaves, probably far less convoluted and pretentious, but the aspect I think is more relevant is the game of mirrors. Trivializing a lot: a lesbian writer writes about a lesbian writer who writes a diary about herself. (and I should mention that I have a particular love for meta-narratives) Then at some point the mirror shatters and we have her discovering a short story about herself that she doesn\u2019t remember to have written at all. As well more mirrors of herself and her dead lover coming from the past, and maybe the future.\nBut that\u2019s misleading as the story is the one of this alter-ego fictional writer, Sarah Crowe, who flees from her former life and rents an house in the countryside. She begins to write her diary when she discovers in the basement of the big house the incomplete draft of a research written by the previous tenant (now dead), about a nearby oak on which converged a number of legends. The framework and execution, at this level, is made of the solid tradition I mentioned above. Soon the bits of legends Sarah reads seep into her reality and slowly build an estrangement from the \u201creal\u201d world. The researcher\u2019s obsession becomes the Sarah\u2019s own, and one doesn\u2019t even have to speculate the woman will share the previous tenant\u2019s fatal destiny as that is already spoiled right in the introduction. It\u2019s a descent into madness when the solid reality under one\u2019s feet starts to crack and give way. The \u201cabscess\u201d that opens and swallows, and that one\u2019s too frightened to look into. The ideal spook story would then end with a plausible rationalization that explains everything, but with the supernatural element still very possible and not completely fended off, and the reader left wondering if it was all true or not, and so the resulting haunting ambiguity.\nAll this stays true to this book. While I was reading I kept waiting for some reversal of canons that would bring novelty and would justify the great praises the book received, but that didn\u2019t come. It didn\u2019t come from the way I was expecting it. The story stays well within the canons, it\u2019s not a \u201cmodern\u201d interpretation. It doesn\u2019t drop some classic conceits: it appropriates the canons. And that is where it hits, but also the part that gave me some problems and so I\u2019m not too confident to wrap up and be done with it. The problem being that I\u2019m not sure I have interpreted it in the right way, or in a way that can be reasonably considered complete or accurate. Too many aspects that I can\u2019t place correctly in the frame, and also the feeling I don\u2019t have any hope to eventually figure it out. A bit frustrating.\nThe whole context is of the kind that puts me off balance. I prefer much more to have things stated bluntly, so that I can get to the nuanced aspects once I get the perimeter well defined. While I have a really hard time to start from the nuances and relate to a perimeter in-the-making that is never quite set and solid. You know, punching holes into certainty. Rationalization as the antidote to comprehension. These habits and mindsets of mine don\u2019t really help here. Now excuse me the following utterly sexist and horrid sweeping generalization. It\u2019s like I\u2019m gaping into the mind of a woman, feeling slightly intrigued, slightly amused, then set the thing down and walk away shaking my head, thinking: \u201cWhat a fucking mess\u201d. But then I don\u2019t think I\u2019m a sexist and so I come away just feeling I\u2019m missing a whole lot and don\u2019t have what it takes to figure it out.\nI should say that these \u201cproblems\u201d are entirely my own and that I do not recognize in the novel itself. I just have to deal with writing an incomplete \u201creview\u201d and the feeling I can\u2019t leave the thing behind in a satisfying way. Yet do not worry, because even if you share my own shortcomings there\u2019s still plenty to appreciate. The book is really well written and gripping, a personal journey you will remember, and I think that even if I wasn\u2019t able to formulate a final explanation (or one that isn\u2019t so simplistic that I dismissed it right away), I was still able to grasp a core of meaning. The same core of meaning that builds the \u201cworth\u201d of this book.\nThe only beacon I had is self-fashioned and about the whole argument of \u201ctruthfulness\u201d in literature that i discussed in the past. For most of the book I was trying to \u201cget\u201d it, but already from the first pages I noticed and appreciated the style of writing. I said the book stays well within the canons, but this doesn\u2019t apply to the writing style. There\u2019s no use of classical language or rhetoric or fancy flourishes. It doesn\u2019t read like a dusty old tome. The language is modern and tight, the voice surprisingly authentic. It\u2019s the writing to surface and shine instead of the story, and I was captured by the mundane long before I started developing interest in the supernatural aspects. Sarah\u2019s character won me before everything else and I was wondering how the book would proceed if I continued to be so weirdly biased toward the mundane. I thought it was my own problem since as a teenager I fed so much on the horror genre that nowadays it hardly has anything to offer, but now I think that this effect was somewhat intended. The supernatural aspect comes up with more strength toward the end of the book, obviously, but it does so in an unexpected way. It\u2019s the mundane to become horror, and it\u2019s one own feelings to open on the pit no one dares look into. The darkness is the human being. Or, to quote Bakker, the darkness comes before, and AFTER:\nI still clearly haven\u2019t reconciled with this, as I am sure that the book reinforces this idea that the darkness comes after (so a man or woman create and shape it), as well its opposite, that the darkness comes before and that what was discovered was indeed out of time and true. Inhuman, absolute. That those hallucinations were real. And I\u2019m even more fucked if I think my whole interpretation (the darkness that comes after) is only due to me reading Bakker, and so completely uprooted from what \u201cThe Red Tree\u201d wanted to show. What a mess, indeed. A few hours ago on twitter I sent a comment to Caitl\u00edn Kiernan since she tweeted she didn\u2019t want her works to be classified as \u201curban fantasy\u201d so I suggested Mark Charan Newton fancy definition of \u201cRural Fantasy\u201d. She replied directly and seriously to what was intended as just a transitory joke, but after finishing the book this offered, and confirmed, the different perspective. She wants it called \u201cdark fantasy\u201d. And that darkness is maybe entirely within, and not outside.\nIn any case, there are elements of the plot I can\u2019t place at all (like the seven paintings and corresponding messages, I couldn\u2019t make anything out of them) and so the proof that even if I may have gotten something framed correctly the whole picture is still far away\u2026\nI should also mention that the descent into madness is also proportional to clarity and self-awareness. That\u2019s maybe the most unconventional and unexpected aspect of the book. The \u201cunreliable narrator\u201d is a device presented in a self-aware way, used to give the text that ambiguity that keeps the disparate interpretations plausible at the same time. But toward the end this unreliable narrator becomes the only authoritative guide. One assumes that madness corresponds to a loss of contact with truth, but here the whole meta-narrative becomes clear in the mind of the character and she even seems to mock herself for it, and maybe it\u2019s this to provide a way to escape madness by sacrificing an envelope to it.\nI consider it quite an awesome book. In spite of these themes surfacing, I still personally enjoyed the characters so much that I would have loved it even if it removed all the supernatural parts and layers. I mean, I was loving that character with or without the darker side exposed. I was loving the unforgiving way Sarah saw herself, the nihilistic aspects. Her relationship and how painfully truthfully it is written. A kind of desperation that destroys any attempt for embellishment or rhetoric. Even WITHIN fiction:",

I love new beginnings and fresh starts, even though I long ago lost the mystical feeling I had about about New Year\u2019s when I was a kid: waking up and running to the window of my bedroom and looking out eagerly, only to see that it looked exactly the same as it had the day before. And although this happened every year, I always felt disappointed and vaguely ripped off. Maybe we should move New Year\u2019s to spring or fall, when at least there\u2019s something interesting to look at outside other than January\u2019s drabness. The Jews have the right idea.\nBut the fact remains that even though the new year always looks the same as the old year, there is still that squirmy little happy bit of something inside me that can\u2019t wait to see what surprises are in store for me.\nI\u2019ve noticed the current trend to blame 2016 for a lot of the lousy things that have happened recently \u2013 and yes, it did grab a weird assortment of celebrities, whatever that\u2019s about. And I know a number of people who have loudly and repeatedly stated that 2016 can\u2019t be held responsible for the ills we\u2019ve suffered as a society, because it is only a year and years don\u2019t kill people\u2026 to which I say yeah, no kidding, and good job missing the point. I for one am tickled to hear everyone coming together and dumping the blame on 2016. It sure beats pointing the finger at each other.\nThat said, I have no great love for 2016, but I can honestly say I am able to take the advice of James and count it all as joy. While I was in the thick of some of the moments from the past year, not so much, but I\u2019m thinking back on all of it tonight, as I\u2019m looking out at the dark prairie and vast night sky which has a way of restoring my mind to its factory settings, and I\u2019m able to find the joy in all of it.\nGuy\u2019s cancer battle took a large and painful bite out of the year, but it brought us closer in a lot of ways, it gave me new empathy for people who are diagnosed with cancer or have a loved one who is, it strengthened my relationship with God, and it showed me who my true friends are\u2026 and aren\u2019t.\nAnd of course during all this, life continued to happen, as life has a way of doing. I had my studies, my preaching, my friends, my family, my writing. I had moments as profound and complex as planning my future, and as simple and beautiful as holding the soft, cool, wrinkly hand of an 84-year-old friend as we sat together and loved each other and the life that brought us across each other\u2019s paths.\nI had some of the happiest moments of my life in 2016. Moments of perfect peace and love and that deep current of happiness that runs through me with little explosions of light and love along the way, like spiritual Pop Rocks. And there were a couple of times of such wrenching sorrow that I wondered if I would ever be able to get out of bed again.\nAnyone can find the joy in the light. It\u2019s much harder in those dark moments. I know. Believe me, I know. To even think about joy when your very soul is so bruised you can\u2019t even draw a full breath is pretty much impossible. But it was in those moments of abject loss and anguish and anger that I learned it\u2019s okay to not look for joy. In those moments, you just can\u2019t.\nBut what you can do is wait. Breathe. Sit with the sorrow, even when it starts to really piss you off like that one drunk person who won\u2019t leave even though the party has been over for an hour. Sit with it. Listen to what it is telling you. And, to loosely quote Pema Chodron, when it has taught you what it came to teach you, it will move on. And the joy will find you again.\nHappy New Year, my friends. Here\u2019s to 2017. Love each other, guys \u2013 we\u2019re all in this together.",

        "raw_content": "For about the past two or three months we have been attempting to visit ChristWay Community Church in Ooltewah. The problem with visiting this church is that we have multiple friends who we have been trying to coordinate with so that we can all attend on the same Sunday. We all know how easy it is to coordinate multiple families\u2019 schedules to be at the same place at the same time during the summer with vacations, weddings, some having to work on weekends, and other obligations\u2026it is about as easy as herding cats. So eventually we just gave up and decided that this would be the week we visited there (otherwise we may have never made it) and whoever else could attend with us would just be a bonus. Our friend Michael had just worked a 24-hour shift and was getting off work at 7 a.m. Sunday morning, so unfortunately he was out, but his wife Shannon and their two children, Lydia (4) and Eli (2), were able to make it, as was our friend Carol. We agreed to go to the early service, which began at 9 a.m. (better for the kids), and so we all planned on meeting up before the service so that we could sit together. Two weeks ago we had brought a guest with us to Rock Point Community Church, and we have visited a few churches where we had either been invited by or knew people who attended there, but I believe that this was the first week where we were meeting up with other first-time visitors to a church. I am all for any change of routine in my church visits, so I was excited that this week would have some extra dimension to it and some new \u201ccharacters\u201d for the ChurchSurfer blog. Instead of just me and Laura, there would be a gang of six first time visitors descending upon the unsuspecting souls of ChristWay Community Church, so this should really put them to the test. Here\u2019s how it went\u2026\nDebbie at the Door\nLaura and I met up with Shannon and the kids in the parking lot and decided to go ahead and check the little ones into child care while waiting for Carol, the final member of our entourage. Just like Silverdale Baptist, the visitor parking was really good, so we took full advantage and parked right outside the entrance. As we approached the steps, the doors swung wide open with two smiling men welcoming us in, and then we immediately walked into a second tier of greeters standing just inside the door. All the greeters were wearing matching t-shirts and lanyards, so it was very easy to identify them (and avoid them if you happen to be anti-social). We, of course, are definitely not anti-social (except maybe Laura when she doesn\u2019t have me forcing her into socializing), so we walked right up to the very first greeter, who introduced herself as Debbie. Debbie enthusiastically welcomed us in and correctly identified us as first-time visitors (another benefit of the visitor parking spaces). She helped Shannon get Lydia and Eli checked in to child care, and kept us engaged in conversation as Carol arrived and joined the group. Debbie then took us on a complete tour of the facility, and dropped us off at the Cafe so that we could all grab some morning coffee. Laura leaned over to me and whispered, \u201cI think the people here are all on happy pills or something\u201d\u2026which should tell you a little about the environment and the demeanor of all the bubbly people we passed by (or maybe it\u2019s because Laura is not a morning person and anything other than a scowl at 8:45 on a Sunday morning is perceived as \u201chappy\u201d). I definitely appreciated the welcome and personal tour we received from Debbie and after we each got some coffee, we headed to the sanctuary for worship.\nAre You Fruity?\nChristWay Community Church sanctuary\nThe sanctuary was mostly white with two rows of columns running down either side of the room and aisles of cushioned chairs on the inside and outside of the columns. The stage area was back-lit with a green glow and had projection screens on both sides and a huge banner in the middle with large white letters spelling the word \u201cLIES\u201d, which was marked through with a red slash. The congregation was made up of mostly young families and a large crowd of youth who were sitting together in the front few rows to the left of the stage. The atmosphere was very casual, and most people were wearing jeans (including the pastor). The worship band, which consisted of guitar, bass, keyboard, and drums, came on to the stage and began an up-tempo contemporary praise song, filling the room with a big, full sound compared to the small size of the band. After one song, there was a video presentation on the screens promoting the new season of lifegroups that was about to start as summer came to a close and kids were going back to school. I really enjoyed the humorous nature of the lifegroup video and thought the use of multimedia was an excellent way to utilize newer technology to engage the congregation. After the video, the senior pastor, John Waters, came on stage and began his sermon (you can listen to the full sermon online), taking me a little off guard by infusing some comparisons of Yankees vs. Northerners (and conversely Rednecks vs. Southerners) and a hemorrhoid joke into an analogy with an annoying lady from his recent vacation who acted consistently obnoxious but then claimed to actually be very considerate of others. The context in which he told this story was to\nChristWay Community Church welcome booth\nillustrate the point that oftentimes people do not have anything in their lives that back up their own claims. Many (or most?) Christians, for example, do not live a life or do anything that would distinguish themselves from the world. Pastor John rationalized that many believers probably think there is a distinction between being a Christian (believer) and being a disciple of Christ (the terminology is explained in Acts 11:26), and think that they have been saved simply by the act or ritual of attending church and professing to \u201cbelieve\u201d, but yet go on living the same lifestyle as those who are of the world. He then referenced Matthew 7:21-23 which makes the point that not everyone who thinks they are saved is actually saved. So how will we know we are saved? John 15:4-7 and Luke 6:43-46 tell us to look for the fruit, which is the evidence of a healthy tree. Pastor John then went on to make two very profound points, one of which was that we should not focus on the fruit\u2026we should instead focus on the tree. The next was a rhetorical question that asked, \u201cwhat if every person who claimed to be Christian was bearing much fruit?\u201d How different our churches, communities, and world would be! Pastor John continued on, exhorting the congregation to look at their \u201ctree\u201d (currently, not at some previous stage of life) and examine the roots (personal time with God, John 8:31), the trunk (fellowship with the body of Christ, John 13:34-35), and the branches (giving our resources and serving, 1 Peter 4:9-11) and making sure everything lines up with what God has called us to do in His Word.\nChristWay Community Church cafe\nAfter the sermon, the praise band came back on stage and we sang two more powerful worship songs (thankfully, because I was more than slightly disturbed to think that there would be only one worship song in the whole service). The spirit of worship was definitely strong and the band and congregation rocked out and sang praises to our Lord. After the service closed we exited to the cafe to wait for Shannon as she picked up the kids from child care. Both of the children seemed to have a great time and the six of us then settled in on some comfy sofas in the cafe for a little while, enjoying each other\u2019s company and fellowship. I ran around and snapped some pictures and then we all said our goodbyes for the day and headed for home. All throughout the church visit I was under the impression that ChristWay Community Church was non-denominational, and it was not until I met with Pastor John later in the week that I found out it was actually affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. He explained that they did not promote their Southern Baptist Affiliation because they do not want it to become a barrier for anyone. He said that their goal as a church was to reach the unchurched (about 60% of the local population) and to focus on remaining a healthy church, rather than just growing for the sake of growing and potentially becoming a large but unhealthy church. That lined up with both the sermon he preached on Sunday and the overall experience we had while visiting ChristWay. It looks like they are heeding their own teaching and examining the \u201ctree\u201d rather than focusing on the \u201cfruit\u201d.\nIf you feel like your \u201ctree\u201d is not as healthy as it should or could be, and you would like to fully realize the blessings that Jesus promises to those who abide in Him, please send me an email at josh@churchsurfer.com and I would be honored to help you take the next step of faith in your life. We are not called simply to believe. Attending church each week is not the fulfillment of God\u2019s calling on the lives of His children. There is much more, and I pray that you will answer His call \u2013 Revelation 3:20.\nLaura, Lydia, Carol, Shannon, and Eli\nLaura and Lydia\nPrevious PostChurchSurfer @ Rock Point Community Church: A Very Special GuestNext PostChurchSurfer @ Hephzibah Ministries: In Tune with the Spiritual\n4 thoughts on \u201cChurchSurfer @ ChristWay Community Church: A Healthy Tree Is a Fruity Tree\u201d\nChris Ackerson says:\nI need to meet John Waters!

        "raw_content": "The message of The Seafarer\nsweord\nforged in Sweden\nWords, Words, Swords\nIt is my loss that I do not have \u00a3500 at the moment to lay out on acquiring the the full run of Bruce Mitchell's Old English Syntax, 1985, as quoted by Anne Klinck in The Old English Elegies, so, for the time being, I'm restricted to scanning A Guide to Old English, Mitchell and Robinson, which appeared at more or less the same time. Below is a sample from page 264 of M & R's comments on the central crux of The Seafarer, line circa 58. It must have been their mastery of syntax which led their readers to assume their equivalent mastery of lexis, or what one might call vocabulary. Their interpretation of the central crux, in my view, is irretrievably wrong. There must be something inherently seductive about this imaginative fantasy. In passing, one is tempted to ask, what exactly is the seafarer's \"goal\" ? The mind is not like a bird, and does not leave the speaker's body in order to return to it and urge him to go anywhere. Instead, the anfloga arrives to gather its prey.\nA Guide to Old English, 1988, by Mitchell & Robinson\nsceatas means \"lap\"\nAnne Klinck below quotes Mitchell, Syntax: \"categorically 'magan + infinitive does not express a wish in OE'\". Neither Ezra Pound, nor Burton Raffel, can be regarded as adept in the translation of Anglish into Modern English. Nevertheless Pound felt obliged to start his \"refraction\" of The Seafarer with \"May I \"; and Raffel is mentioned by Klinck as suggesting, in Deor, \"an optative force in m\u00e6g\". The exact equivalent of m\u00e6g exists in German m\u00f6ge, Swedish m\u00e5, and Modern English may. Rendering the opening words of The Seafarer as \"I can\" is simply wrong.\nThe Old English Elegies, 2001.\nCan May Let\nThe Sutton Hoo sword, replicated at right and left, was almost certainly forged in Sweden. A shorter version of this weapon would have been called a seax. This would have been the arm of the Angles manning and maintaining what was called by the Romans the Saxon Shore. Neither the Romans, nor the pre-existing Ancient Britons, or Scots, would have been unduly concerned where these men actually came from, and would have indiscriminately called them Saxons, or Sassenachs, or variants thereof, as they were armed with a seax. In time, these settlers would have mingled with the natives, to create what is now known as the British, or English. Those called Saxons simply because of their weapons, however, would have called themselves Angles. They mainly came from what is now Sweden, where there are over 150 place-names starting Angel-, Engel-, or Ingel-. Moreover, \"There are over 1,000 place-names beginning with Ing- in Sweden \". See Burns, A Short Comparison, page 308. The god Ingwe was especially associated with Sweden and seen as the progenitor of the Ingling or Yngling lineage, a dynasty of legendary Swedish kings. A strophe of the Anglo-Saxon Rune Poem records that \"Ing was first among the East Danes seen by men\". The East Danes occupied what is now known as the province of Sk\u00e5ne, in Sweden. There are virtually no place-names in what is now Saxony repeated in modern Britain. Saxony was not established as a province until circa 550 AD.\nDavid Burns 1 David Burns 2\nlife & death personality\nAnglian Land & Language\n\"Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance\".

[\u2026] The Appeals Chamber considers that a trial chamber may exercise its discretionary power to determine whether to take judicial notice of an adjudicated fact,[1] even if the fact may have been less central to the charges in the previous proceedings of the Tribunal than in the current proceedings,[2] so long as the adjudicated fact has been \u201cestablished by the Trial Chamber [in the previous proceedings] on the basis of evidence\u201d.[3] [\u2026]\n[2] See Blagojevi\u0107 and Joki\u0107 Appeal Judgement, para. 34.\n[3] The Prosecutor v. Th\u00e9oneste Bagosora and Anatole Nsengiyumva, Case No. ICTR-98-41-A, Decision on Anatole Nsengiyumva\u2019s Motion for Judicial Notice, 29 October 2010, para. 11 (emphasis omitted).\nFacts from another proceeding\n197. The Trial Chamber did not refer to evidence on the trial record in the present case when noting that informal or regional civil defence measures existed before the establishment of a civil defence on a national scale. Rather, it appears to have relied on an extraneous source, namely a discussion of facts in the Bagosora et al. Trial Judgement.[1]\n198. In doing so, the Trial Chamber in fact took judicial notice of facts from another proceeding before the Tribunal. The only legal basis for such an approach would have been Rule 94 of the Rules [\u2026].\n199. The existence of informal or regional civil defence measures prior to the implementation of civil defence on a national scale in Rwanda cannot be qualified as a fact of common knowledge under Rule 94(A) of the Rules.[2] The relevant parts of the Bagosora et al. Trial Judgement could therefore have been judicially noticed in Setako\u2019s trial only as adjudicated facts pursuant to Rule 94(B) of the Rules.\n200. The Appeals Chamber recalls that taking judicial notice of adjudicated facts or documentary evidence under Rule 94(B) of the Rules is a method of achieving judicial economy and harmonizing judgements of the Tribunal while ensuring the right of the accused to a fair, public, and expeditious trial.[3] For this reason, Rule 94(B) of the Rules requires a trial chamber to hear the parties before deciding to take judicial notice. In addition, the fact in question has to be \u201cadjudicated\u201d. According to established jurisprudence, this latter requirement is only met if the fact is determined in a final judgement, meaning that no appeal has been instituted against it or, if instituted, the fact in question has been upheld.[4] Here, the Trial Chamber took judicial notice of facts addressed in the Bagosora et al. Trial Judgement without hearing the parties and while the Bagosora et al. Trial Judgement was still pending appeal.[5] The Appeals Chamber therefore finds that the Trial Chamber violated Rule 94(B) of the Rules.\n[1] While it is apparent that the Bagosora et al. Trial Judgement was only among several sources, the Trial Chamber did not disclose any other sources upon which it relied. See Trial Judgement, fn. 446.\n[2] This category is confined to facts, which are not subject to reasonable dispute, that is commonly accepted or universally known facts, such as general facts of history or geography. See Bikindi Appeal Judgement, para. 99; Semanza Appeal Judgement, para. 194.\n[3] The Prosecutor v. \u00c9douard Karemera et al., Case No. ICTR-98-44-AR73(C), Decision on Prosecutor\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal of Decision on Judicial Notice, 16 June 2006, para. 39; Prosecutor v. Mom\u010dilo Kraji\u0161nik, Case No. IT-00-39-T, Decision on Third and Fourth Prosecution Motions for Judicial Notice of Adjudicated Facts, 24 March 2005, para. 12.\n[4] Th\u00e9oneste Bagosora et al. v.

Casimir Bizimungu et al., Case No. ICTR-99-50-T, Decision on Bicamumpaka\u2019s Motion for Judicial Notice, 11 February 2004, paras. 4, 5.\n[5] The Appeals Chamber notes that the Bagosora et al. Trial Chamber\u2019s findings on the existence of civil defence programmes as such were not appealed. Only Nsengiyumva challenged the adequacy of his notice of the allegations and the Trial Chamber\u2019s findings on his responsibility over civil defence forces in 1994. See Th\u00e9oneste Bagosora et al. v. The Prosecutor, Case No. ICTR-98-41-A, Nsengiyumva\u2019s Appeal Brief, filed 1 February 2010 (confidential) and 2 February 2010 (public), paras. 20-22, 35, 41, 59, 61, 63, 64, 77, 80, 121, 136.\nAt para. 26, the Appeals Chamber recalled that Rule 94 of the Rules cannot be used to circumvent the requirements of Rule 115:\n26. [\u2026] [T]he Appeals Chamber recalls that \u201cRule 94 of the Rules is not a mechanism that may be employed to circumvent the general Rules governing the admissibility of evidence and litter the record with matters which would not be admitted otherwise.\u201d[1] The Appeals Chamber emphasises that to admit on appeal a fact capable of judicial notice, the requirements provided for by Rule 115 of the Rules must also be satisfied,[2] which is not the case in this instance. Had the Medical Reports and the Silverman Report met the requirements of Rule 94(A), they would not have been admitted on appeal.\n[1] Ibid, para. 17.\n[2] Ibid, paras 17, 18.\n26. Although not clearly contested by either party, the Appeals Chamber will address the issue of whether and to what extent it is within a trial chamber\u2019s discretion to reformulate proposed adjudicated facts prior to taking judicial notice of them. The Appeals Chamber notes that several trial chambers have held that it is within their discretion to make minor corrections to proposed facts to render their formulation consistent with the meaning intended by the original judgement, as long as the corrections do not introduce any substantive changes.[1] For example, the Popovi\u0107 et al. Trial Chamber held that:\n[\u2026] if the moving party\u2019s formulation contains only a minor inaccuracy or ambiguity as a result of its abstraction from the context of the original judgement, the Chamber may, in its discretion, correct the inaccuracy or ambiguity proprio motu. In such circumstances, the correction should introduce no substantive change to the proposed fact, and the purpose of such correction should be to render the formulation consistent with the meaning intended by the original Chamber. The fact corrected in this manner may then be judicially noticed, as long as it fulfils all the other admissibility requirements of Rule 94(B).[2]\nMoreover, in the Mi\u0107o Stani\u0161i\u0107 Decision, the Trial Chamber corrected proposed facts by adding information on their temporal and/or geographic scope drawn from the trial judgement from which the proposed fact was taken.[3]\n27. The Appeals Chamber also recalls that:\n[a] Trial Chamber can and indeed must decline to take judicial notice of facts if it considers that the way they are formulated \u2013 abstracted from the context in the judgement from whence they came \u2013 is misleading or inconsistent with the facts actually adjudicated in the cases in question. A fact taken out of context in this way would not actually be an \u2018adjudicated fact\u2019 and thus is not subject to judicial notice under Rule 94(B).[4]\n28. The Appeals Chamber, Judge Robinson dissenting, considers that the approach taken by the trial chambers as set out above would not fall outside a chamber\u2019s discretion to take judicial notice of adjudicated facts. However, only minor modifications or additions, which do not alter the meaning of the original judgement from which the proposed adjudicated fact originates, are permissible.\n32. The Appeals Chamber notes that the Trial Chamber frequently corrected or added information to Proposed Facts which it found did not meet one or more of the criteria for judicial notice. The Appeals Chamber is mindful of the Trial Chamber\u2019s discretion to take judicial notice of adjudicated facts on a proprio motu basis pursuant to Rule 94(B) of the Rules. However, the Appeals Chamber considers that this does not provide the Trial Chamber with the authority to substantively alter facts as proposed by a moving party and that any such exercise of a trial chamber\u2019s discretion should form a separate analysis.[5]\n33. As indicated above, the Appeals Chamber considers that it is within a trial chamber\u2019s discretion to make minor corrections or additions to proposed facts to render them clearer and consistent with the meaning intended in the original judgement.[6] However, the Appeals Chamber considers that it is not permissible for a trial chamber to do so in a manner that introduces new information, which is extraneous to the proposed fact as submitted by the moving party.\n[1] [Prosecutor v.

Appeal Decision\u201d)], para. 55.\n[5] In this regard, the Appeals Chamber notes the Trial Chamber\u2019s Decision on Proprio Motu Taking Judicial Notice of Two Adjudicated Facts, 5 June 2012, in which it decided to take judicial notice of two adjudicated facts after first hearing from the parties and indicating that it had carefully considered the applicable law in relation to taking judicial notice of adjudicated facts (See Decision on Proprio Motu Taking Judicial Notice of Two Adjudicated Facts, 5 June 2012, paras 1, 6).\n[6] See supra, paras 26-28.\n225. [\u2026] [T]he underlying purpose of [judicial notice] is to dispense with future proof of officially recorded facts that are indisputable.\nFacts going to the criminal responsibility of an accused\nEmphasis added are in bold, emphasis from the original decision are in italics.\n47. [\u2026] in Semanza the Appeals Chamber made reference to the need to ensure \u201cthat the facts judicially noticed were not the basis for proving the Appellant\u2019s criminal responsibility\u201d. This reference was made in the context of a discussion of Rule 94(A), and the Appeals Chamber did not discuss the implications for Rule 94(B). In both contexts, however, it remains the case that the practice of judicial notice must not be allowed to circumvent the presumption of innocence and the defendant\u2019s right to a fair trial, including his right to confront his accusers. Thus, it would plainly be improper for facts judicially noticed to be the \u201cbasis for proving the Appellant\u2019s criminal responsibility\u201d (in the sense of being sufficient to establish that responsibility), and it is always necessary for Trial Chambers to take careful consideration of the presumption of innocence and the procedural rights of the accused.\n48. The Appeals Chamber, however, has never gone so far as to suggest that judicial notice under Rule 94(B) cannot extend to facts that \u201cgo directly or indirectly\u201d to the criminal responsibility of the accused (or that \u201cbear\u201d or \u201ctouch\u201d thereupon). With due respect to the Trial Chambers that have so concluded,[1] the Appeals Chamber cannot agree with this proposition, as its logic, if consistently applied, would render Rule 94(B) a dead letter. The purpose of a criminal trial is to adjudicate the criminal responsibility of the accused. Facts that are not related, directly or indirectly, to that criminal responsibility are not relevant to the question to be adjudicated at trial, and, as noted above, thus may neither be established by evidence nor through judicial notice.[2] So judicial notice under Rule 94(B) is in fact available only for adjudicated facts that bear, at least in some respect, on the criminal responsibility of the accused.[3]\n49. How can this observation be reconciled with the presumption of innocence? First, as noted above, judicial notice under Rule 94(B) does not shift the ultimate burden of persuasion, but only the initial burden of production (the burden to produce credible and reliable evidence sufficient to bring the matter into dispute). Analogously, in the context of alibi evidence, for instance, the accused bears the burden of production with respect to a matter centrally related to the guilt of the accused; yet this shift does not violate the presumption of innocence because, as the Appeals Chamber has repeatedly recognized, the prosecution retains the burden of proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.[4]\n50. Notwithstanding this point, there is nonetheless reason for caution in allowing judicial notice under Rule 94(B) of facts that are central to the criminal responsibility of the accused\u2014for ordinarily in criminal cases the burdens of production and persuasion are on the prosecution. Although the latter always remains on the prosecution, even shifting the former has significant implications for the accused\u2019s procedural rights, in particular his right to hear and confront the witnesses against him.[5] The Appeals Chamber considers that as a result an exclusion from judicial notice under Rule 94(B) is appropriate, but one narrower than that adopted by the Trial Chamber: judicial notice should not be taken of adjudicated facts relating to the acts, conduct, and mental state of the accused.\n51. There are two reasons that this category of facts warrants complete exclusion, while other facts bearing less directly on the accused\u2019s criminal responsibility are left to the Trial Chamber\u2019s discretion. First, this interpretation of Rule 94(B) strikes a balance between the procedural rights of the Accused and the interest of expediency that is consistent with the one expressly struck in Rule 92 bis, which governs the proof of facts other than by oral evidence\u2014another procedural mechanism adopted largely for the same purpose as was Rule 94.[6] Second, there is also a reliability concern\u2014namely, there is reason to be particularly skeptical of facts adjudicated in other cases when they bear specifically on the actions, omissions, or mental state of an individual not on trial in those cases. As a general matter, the defendants in those other cases would have had significantly less incentive to contest those facts than they would facts related to their own actions; indeed, in some cases such defendants might affirmatively choose to allow blame to fall on another.\n52. As to all other adjudicated facts relating to the criminal responsibility of the accused, it is for the Trial Chambers, in the careful exercise of their discretion, to assess each particular fact in order to determine whether taking judicial notice of it\u2014and thus shifting the burden of producing evidence rebutting it to the accused\u2014is consistent with the accused\u2019s rights under the circumstances of the case. [\u2026]\n[1] See supra note 77 (cases cited by Nzirorera Response).\n[3] In theory, there is one exception to this statement: facts bearing on the Tribunal\u2019s jurisdiction but not (directly or indirectly) on the accused\u2019s criminal responsibility under international law, such as the location of the territorial boundaries of Rwanda, or the Rwandan citizenship of a person accused of committing a serious violation of international humanitarian law in a neighbouring State. This category is quite limited, however, and it has never been suggested that the scope of Rule 94(B) should be limited to such facts.\n[4] See, e.g., Kajelijeli Appeal Judgement, paras 40-41; Niyitegeka Appeal Judgement, paras 60-61.\n[5] Statute of the International Tribunal, art. 20(e). For similar reasons, Article 20(d), referring to the right of the accused to be tried in his or her presence, is also implicated by the practice of resolving facts fundamental to the guilt of the accused in other trials where the accused is not present.\n[6] Rule 92 bis (in paragraphs (A) and (D) limits admission of witness statements and transcripts from other proceedings to matters \u201cother than the acts and conduct of the accused as charged in the indictment\u201d. The Appeals Chamber has interpreted this phrase as extending to the mental state of the accused. See Prosecutor v. Gali\u0107, Case No. IT-98-29-AR73.2, Decision on Interlocutory Appeal Concerning Rule 92 bis (C), 7 June 2002, paras 10-11 (\u201cGali\u0107 Decision\u201d).\n194. At the time of the Decision on Judicial Notice, Rule 94 provided that \u201c[a] Trial Chamber shall not require proof of facts of common knowledge but shall take judicial notice thereof.\u201d[1] The Rule was later amended[2] to provide, in addition, for the taking of judicial notice of adjudicated facts or documentary evidence.[3] The provision relating to facts of common knowledge, provided under paragraph (A) of Rule 94, remained the same.[4] As the ICTY Appeals Chamber explained in Prosecution v. Milo\u0161evi\u0107, Rule 94(A) \u201ccommands the taking of judicial notice\u201d of material that is \u201cnotorious.\u201d[5] The term \u201ccommon knowledge\u201d encompasses facts that are not reasonably subject to dispute: in other words, commonly accepted or universally known facts, such as general facts of history or geography, or the laws of nature.[6] Such facts are not only widely known but also beyond reasonable dispute.[7] As stated above, the fact that the Appellant did dispute some of the facts judicially noticed before the Trial Chamber did not prevent the Trial Chamber from qualifying the facts as facts of common knowledge since, as explained by the Trial Chamber, \u201c[h]aving entered a plea of not guilty to all the counts in the indictment, the Accused has placed even the most patent of facts in dispute. However, this alone cannot rob the Chamber of its discretion to take judicial notice of those facts not subject to dispute among reasonable persons.\u201d[8] Having regard to the arguments submitted by the Appellant before the Trial Chamber to challenge the nature of the facts adduced by the Prosecution and to the facts themselves, the Appeals Chamber considers that the said facts were not the subject of a \u201creasonable\u201d dispute. Therefore, the Appeals Chamber finds that the Trial Chamber did not err in considering that the facts enumerated in the Decision on Judicial Notice were \u201cfacts of common knowledge\u201d within the meaning of Rule 94 of the Rules.\n[1] Rule 94(A).\n[2] See amendments adopted at the ninth session, 3 November 2000.\n[5] [Prosecutor v. Slobodan Milo\u0161evi\u0107, Case No. IT-02-54-AR73.5], \u201cDecision on the Prosecution\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal Against the Trial Chamber\u2019s 10 April 2003 Decision on Prosecution Motion for Judicial Notice of Adjudicative Facts,\u201d 28 October 2003, p. 3.\n[6] Decision on Judicial Notice, para. 23. See M. Cherif Bassiouni & P. Manikas, The Law of the International Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (United States of America, 1996), p. 952.\n[7] Decision on Judicial Notice, para. 24.\nGuilt of an accused cannot be based on judicially noticed facts\n192. The Statute of the Tribunal provides that \u201c[t]he accused shall be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to the provisions of the . . . Statute.\u201d[1] The Trial Chamber in this case was careful to note that it could take judicial notice of facts of common knowledge under Rule 94 of the Rules, but that it could not \u201ctake judicial notice of inferences to be drawn from the judicially noticed facts.\u201d[2] The Chamber emphasized that the \u201cburden of proving the Accused\u2019s guilt, therefore, continue[d] to rest squarely upon the shoulders of the Prosecutor for the duration of the trial proceeding,\u201d and it stated that \u201cthe critical issue [was] what part, if any, . . . the Accused play[ed] in the events that took place.\u201d[3] As these passages suggest, the Trial Chamber struck an appropriate balance between the Appellant\u2019s rights under Article 20(3) and the doctrine of judicial notice by ensuring that the facts judicially noticed were not the basis for proving the Appellant\u2019s criminal responsibility. Instead, the Chamber took notice only of general notorious facts not subject to reasonable dispute, including, inter alia: that Rwandan citizens were classified by ethnic group between April and July 1994; that widespread or systematic attacks against a civilian population based on Tutsi ethnic identification occurred during that time; that there was an armed conflict not of an international character in Rwanda between 1 January 1994 and 17 July 1994; that Rwanda became a state party to the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948) on 16 April 1975; and that, at the time at issue, Rwanda was a state party to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949 and their additional Additional Protocol II of 8 June 1977.[4] The Appeals Chamber finds that these judicially noted facts did not relieve the Prosecution of its burden of proof; they went only to the manner in which the Prosecution could discharge that burden in respect of the production of certain evidence which did not concern the acts done by the Appellant. When determining the Appellant\u2019s personal responsibility, the Trial Chamber relied on the facts it found on the basis of the evidence adduced at trial.\n[1] Article 20(3).\n[2] Decision on Judicial Notice [The Prosecutor v. Laurent Semanza, Case No. ICTR-97-20-I, Decision on the\nProsecutor\u2019s Motion for Judicial Notice and Presumptions of Facts Pursuant to Rules 94 and 54, 3 November 2000],para. 42.\n[4] Ibid., Annex A, paras 1-6.\nNon-international character of the conflict in Rwanda\n192. [\u2026] Instead, the Chamber took notice only of general notorious facts not subject to reasonable dispute, including, inter alia: [\u2026] that there was an armed conflict not of an international character in Rwanda between 1 January 1994 and 17 July 1994; [\u2026]\nRwanda; existence of Hutus; Tutsis; Twas as protected group; genocide; widespread or systematic attacks\n192. [\u2026] Instead, the Chamber took notice only of general notorious facts not subject to reasonable dispute, including, inter alia: that Rwandan citizens were classified by ethnic group between April and July 1994; that widespread or systematic attacks against a civilian population based on Tutsi ethnic identification occurred during that time; [\u2026]\nExistence of a plan or policy\n62. The Appeals Chamber finds no error in the fact that the Trial Chamber took into consideration the judicially-noticed fact that \u201cduring 1994, there was a campaign of mass killing intended to destroy, in whole or at least in very large part, Rwanda\u2019s Tutsi population\u201d.[1] [\u2026]\n63. As the Appeals Chamber\u2019s jurisprudence underscores, Rukundo is correct in contending that judicial notice and evidence of the general context cannot be a substitute for specific findings on mens rea. However, the Trial Chamber\u2019s analysis does not use the general context in Rwanda and in Gitarama Prefecture as the sole basis for finding that Rukundo possessed the mens rea for genocide. Instead, it appropriately used the judicially-noticed finding of widespread attacks against Tutsis in Rwanda, and the contextual evidence about the targeting of Tutsis in Gitarama Prefecture, as a frame or context in which to interpret numerous other indicators of Rukundo\u2019s mens rea.

Appeal of Decision on Judicial Notice\u201d), para. 35.\n7. Rule 94(B) of the Rules provides that, at a request of a party or proprio motu, a Trial Chamber may decide to take judicial notice of adjudicated facts from other proceedings of the Tribunal relating to the matter at issue in the current proceedings.[1] The Appeals Chamber previously held that adjudicated facts are \u201cfacts that have been established in a proceeding between other parties on the basis of the evidence the parties to that proceeding chose to introduce, in the particular context of that proceeding.\u201d[2] Only facts which are not under challenge before the Appeals Chamber or, if challenged, have been upheld by the Appeals Chamber can be deemed \u201cadjudicated\u201d within the meaning of Rule 94(B) of the Rules.[3] By taking judicial notice of an adjudicated fact, a Chamber establishes a well-founded presumption for the accuracy of this fact, which therefore does not have to be proven again at trial.[4]\n[1] See Momir Nikoli\u0107 v.

In addition, the Appeals Chamber notes that paragraphs 26 and 27 of the Bagaragaza Sentencing Judgement which Nsengiyumva also seeks to have judicially noticed contain legal conclusions on Michel Bagaragaza\u2019s criminal responsibility and not facts. The Appeals Chamber recalls that \u201c[j]udicial notice pursuant to Rule 94(B) is not designed for the importing of legal conclusions from past proceedings.\u201d[1] Therefore, the Appeals Chamber finds that paragraphs 26 and 27 of the Bagaragaza Sentencing Judgement cannot be subject to judicial notice under Rule 94(B) of the Rules.\n[1] Prosecutor v. Dragomir Milo\u0161evi\u0107, Case No. IT-98-29/1-AR73.1, Decision on Interlocutory Appeals against Trial Chamber\u2019s Decision on Prosecution\u2019s Motion for Judicial Notice of Adjudicated Facts and Prosecution\u2019s Catalogue of Agreed Facts, 26 June 2007, para. 22.\n10. Nsengiyumva requests that judicial notice be taken of portions of a sentencing judgement based on a guilty plea. In this respect, the Appeals Chamber notes that Trial Chambers of this Tribunal and of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia have held that in order to be judicially noticed, facts must not be based on an agreement between the parties to the original proceedings,[1] and that, as such, facts shall not be deemed \u201cadjudicated\u201d if they are based on guilty pleas or admissions voluntarily made by an accused during the proceedings.[2] This position is based on the consideration that such facts are not proper sources of judicial notice because they have not been subjected to the same level of scrutiny as in other trial situations where one of the parties has the burden of proof,[3] and that the accused\u2019s admissions \u201cspeak neither to the general currency of the fact nor to its indisputable character.\u201d[4]\n11. The Appeals Chamber agrees that facts based on an agreement between parties in previous proceedings cannot be deemed \u201cadjudicated facts\u201d within the meaning of Rule 94 of the Rules because they have not been established by the Trial Chamber on the basis of evidence. Rather, such facts are merely accepted by the Trial Chamber upon a less burdensome level of scrutiny than the one applied to instances where the Prosecution must prove the facts upon which convictions are based beyond reasonable doubt. In light of this reasoning, the Appeals Chamber finds that the facts admitted by Michel Bagaragaza as set out in paragraphs 24 and 25 of the Bagaragaza Sentencing Judgement are not subject to judicial notice under Rule 94(B) of the Rules.\n[1] See, e.g., The Prosecutor v.

[\u2026] The Appeals Chamber [\u2026] stresses the need for a clear distinction between the issue of the existence of genocide in Rwanda in 1994, a fact judicially noticed by the Appeals Chamber in the Karemera Decision,[1] from the separate questions regarding the existence of a conspiracy to commit genocide between the three co-appellants in the present case, and the Appellant\u2019s participation in such a conspiracy. The Appeals Chamber finds that there is nothing in the Appellant\u2019s arguments to suggest that the judicially noticed facts in the Karemera Decision would prevent him either from challenging the existence of a conspiracy to commit genocide or from disputing his participation therein. The Karemera Decision is clear in that its direction to the Trial Chamber to take judicial notice of facts of common knowledge does not shift the ultimate burden of persuasion, which remains on the Prosecution,[2] with respect to the personal responsibility of each accused. It has been subsequently specified by the Appeals Chamber that with regard to the Karemera Decision, \u201ctaking of judicial notice of this fact does not imply the existence of a plan to commit genocide\u201d.[3] Therefore, the Appeals Chamber, noting that the Appellant indeed challenges the Trial Chamber\u2019s findings of conspiracy, both in his Notice of Appeal and in his Appeal Brief,[4] considers that he has failed to demonstrate how the Karemera Decision, if applicable to his case, could impact on his ability to dispute that \u201che was party to a plan to commit genocide\u201d.\n12. [\u2026] The Appeals Chamber, finding that the Appellant has failed to raise on appeal any argument challenging the occurrence of genocide, considers therefore that he has not shown how the judicially noticed facts in the Karemera Decision, if applicable to his case, could adversely affect his appeal. His request for clarification in this regard is therefore denied as unfounded.\n[1] [The Prosecutor v. Edouard Karemera et al., Case No. ICTR-98-44-AR73(C), Decision on Prosecutor\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal of Decision on Judicial Notice, 16 June 2006], para. 35.\n[2] [The Prosecutor v. Edouard Karemera et al., Case No. ICTR-98-44-AR73(C), Decision on Prosecutor\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal of Decision on Judicial Notice, 16 June 2006], paras 30 and 42; see also Prosecutor v. Semanza, Case No. ICTR-97-20-A, Judgement, 20 May 2005, para. 192.\n[3] [Edouard Karemera et al. v. The Prosecutor, Case No. ICTR-98-44-AR73(C), Decision on Motions for Reconsideration, 1 December 2006], para. 21.\n[4] Notice of Appeal, Ground 30 and Appeal Brief paras 243-249.\n99. [\u2026] The term \u201ccommon knowledge\u201d encompasses facts that are widely known and not reasonably subject to dispute: in other words, commonly accepted or universally known facts, such as general facts of history or geography, or the laws of nature.[1]\n[1] See Semanza Appeal Judgement, para. 194; Karemera et al., Decision on Judicial Notice, paras. 22, 23.\n101. The Appeals Chamber considers that the Trial Chamber could have taken into account the fact that the request was made late in the proceedings in assessing, for example, whether the facts sought to be judicially noticed were relevant to the Appellant\u2019s case. However, the Trial Chamber erred in rejecting the Defence Motion for Judicial Notice solely on the basis of its late filing. The Trial Chamber should have considered whether the facts at issue were facts of common knowledge and, if so, whether they were relevant to the Appellant\u2019s case. While the Trial Chamber erred in dismissing the application on the grounds that it was untimely, the Appeals Chamber is not satisfied that the facts submitted by the Appellant were capable of being judicially noticed by the Trial Chamber. The information contained in these documents regarding the movements of the troops of Operation Turquoise would certainly not qualify as facts that are commonly accepted or universally known or beyond reasonable dispute. As a consequence, the Appeals Chamber finds that the Trial Chamber erred in rejecting the Defence Motion for Judicial Notice for lateness but considers that this error did not invalidate the decision.\nEvidence rebutting judicially noted facts |\n7. The Trial Chamber\u2019s decision in this case to deny admission of a transcript of evidence under Rule 92bis(D) of the Rules to rebut a judicially noticed fact is a discretionary decision to which the Appeals Chamber accords deference.[1]\n14. In the Karemera et al. Appeal Decision on Judicial Notice, the Appeals Chamber held that the Defence may rebut the presumption by introducing \u201creliable and credible\u201d evidence to the contrary.[2] The requirement that the evidence be \u201creliable and credible\u201d must be understood in its proper context, through the lens of the general standard for admission of evidence at trial set out in Rule 89(C) of the Rules: \u201c[a] Chamber may admit any relevant evidence which it deems to have probative value\u201d. Only evidence that is reliable and credible may be considered to have probative value.[3]\n15. It follows that, as for any other evidence for which no additional requirements have been specified in the Rules, the threshold for admission of this type of rebuttal evidence is relatively low: what is required is not the definitive proof of reliability or credibility of the evidence, but the showing of prima facie reliability and credibility on the basis of sufficient indicia.[4] The final evaluation of the reliability and credibility, and hence the probative value of the evidence, will only be made in light of the totality of the evidence in the case, in the course of determining the weight to be attached to it.[5]\n16. In the present case, the Trial Chamber found that \u201cevidence which has already been considered and rejected by another Trial Chamber in making a finding of fact should not be admissible in a later proceeding to rebut that same finding of fact\u201d.[6] [...]\n20. Lastly, the Trial Chamber reasoned that \u201cthe very purpose of admitting adjudicated facts would be undermined by permitting a party to admit such evidence\u201d because \u201c[j]udicial economy would not be achieved if parties were entitled to challenge adjudicated facts with evidence that has already been rejected in relation to that finding.\u201d[7] In this respect, the Appeals Chamber underscores that the principle of judicial economy must yield to the fundamental right of the accused to a fair trial. A Trial Chamber cannot deny the Defence its right to put the adjudicated fact into question by introducing evidence to the contrary simply because it would frustrate judicial economy. Further, the Appeals Chamber emphasizes that Rule 94(B) of the Rules fosters judicial economy by avoiding the need for evidence in chief to be presented in support of a fact already previously adjudicated. Hence, the purpose of judicial economy underlying Rule 94(B) of the Rules is not frustrated by the admission of rebuttal evidence.\n21. Similarly, the fact that the judicial notice mechanism was also created to favour consistency and uniformity of the case-law cannot be a matter that weighs against the admissibility of rebuttal evidence. In this respect, the Appeals Chamber stresses that adjudicated facts that are judicially noticed by way of Rule 94(B) of the Rules remain to be assessed by the Trial Chamber to determine what conclusions, if any, can be drawn from them when considered together with all the evidence brought at trial. The Rule 94(B) mechanism does not allow a Chamber to simply defer to the assessment of the evidence by another Chamber on the ground that this mechanism was fashioned to favour consistency and uniformity in the Tribunal\u2019s case-law.\n22. The Appeals Chamber concludes that the Trial Chamber incorrectly applied the governing law in finding that \u201cevidence which has already been considered and rejected by another Trial Chamber in making a finding of fact should not be admissible in a later proceeding to rebut that same finding of fact\u201d.[8] This approach would have the effect of denying to the opposite party its fundamental right to contest the material admitted by rebutting the presumption created by the admission of the adjudicated fact. In deferring to the assessment of the reliability of Ntakirutimana\u2019s testimony by the Ntakirutimana Trial Chamber, the Trial Chamber not only failed to fulfil its obligation to examine whether the evidence may have probative value in the circumstances of the case before it, but also misapplied the standard for admission of evidence which only requires prima facie indicia of reliability and credibility.\n[1] As regards the general discretion afforded to Trial Chambers in determining the admissibility of evidence, see, e.g.: Prosecutor v.

The Appeals Chamber notes that the large majority of the appeal decisions on the issue of admissibility of evidence at trial only refer to the requirement of \u201creliability\u201d, without explicitly mentioning the requirement of \u201ccredibility\u201d. Given the large meaning of the term \u201creliability\u201d, the Appeals Chamber considers that the requirement of prima facie reliability indisputably encompasses the requirement of prima facie credibility.\n[5] See, e.g., Popovi\u0107 et al.

The former gives a factual context to the allegations of the crime of genocide. The latter requires a finding of whether the elements of the crimes of genocide, such as actus reus and mens rea, exist in order to ascertain whether an accused is responsible for the crime.\u201d Consequently, the taking of judicial notice of genocide does not, in itself, go to the alleged conduct or acts of the Applicants as charged in the indictment.[1]\n[1] Semanza Appeal Judgment, para.192\nExistence of a plan or policy |\nExistence of a plan or policy for genocide\nAt para. 21, the Appeals Chamber recalled that:\n[T]he existence of a plan or policy is not a legal ingredient of the crime of genocide. While the existence of such plan may help to establish that the accused possessed the requisite genocidal intent, it remains only evidence supporting the inference of intent and does not become the legal ingredient of the offence.[1]\nAs a result it held that \u201cif the existence of a plan to commit genocide is vital to the Prosecution\u2019s case, this must be proved by evidence.\u201d (para. 21).\n[1] The Prosecutor v.

Goran Jelisic, Case No. IT-95-10-A,Judgment , 5 July 2001, para.48\nNo discretion of the Trial Chamber\nAt paras 24-26, the Appeals Chamber recalled its previous finding that a Trial Chamber has no discretion to order that a fact of common knowledge be proved at trial:\nThat the Trial Chamber has no discretion to rule that a fact of common knowledge must be proved through evidence at trial. This determination was based on an interpretation of Rule 94(A) of the Rules. Such discretion only exists for matters of judicial notice which fall within the ambit of Rule 94(B) of the Rules, that is, adjudicated facts or documentary evidence from other proceedings of the Tribunal.\nAt para. 27, The Appeals Chamber emphasised:\nThe practice of judicial notice must not be allowed to circumvent the presumption of innocence and the defendant\u2019s right to a fair trial. Thus, it is always necessary for Trial Chambers to take a careful consideration of the procedural rights of the accused.\nConsequently, it reiterated that judicially noticed facts do not relieve the Prosecution of its burden of proof.\nAt para. 11, the Appeals Chamber recalled its previous finding and held that:\nThe existence of a non-international armed conflict is a notorious fact not subject to a reasonable dispute.[1]Whether a fact is one of common knowledge is a legal question, the answer to which does not turn on the evidence introduced in a particular case.\n[1] The Prosecutor v.

[\u2026] the Trial Chamber correctly held that the adjudicated facts sought to be judicially noticed must be relevant to the matters at issue in the current proceedings.[1]\n14. [\u2026] Even though these Proposed Facts fall outside the time period charged in the Amended Indictment and are related to the acts, conduct and mens rea of his predecessor, Gali\u0107, the Appeals Chamber finds that they are clearly relevant to the present case inasmuch as they concern the campaign against civilians between September 1992 and August 1994.\n[1] Impugned Decision [Prosecutor v.

The Karemera Appeals Decision established that it is prohibited to take judicial notice of \u201cadjudicated facts relating to the acts, conduct, and mental state of the accused.\u201d This means that, when an accused is charged with crimes committed by others, while it is possible to take judicial notice of adjudicated facts regarding the existence of such crimes, the actus reus and the mens rea supporting the responsibility of the accused for the crimes in question must be proven by other means than judicial notice. Thus, the Appeals Chamber sees no reason why judicial notice could not be taken of adjudicated facts providing evidence as to the existence of crimes committed by others and which the accused is not even charged with, as in the instant case, as long as the burden remains on the Prosecution to establish, by means other than judicial notice, that the accused had knowledge of their existence. The Appeals Chamber recalls, in this respect, that judicial notice of adjudicated facts \u201cdoes not shift the ultimate burden of persuasion, which remains with the Prosecution\u201d and that the facts \u201cestablished under Rule 94(B) are merely presumptions that may be rebutted by the defence with evidence at trial\u201d.[3]\n17. [\u2026] the Appeals Chamber finds ambiguous the Prosecution\u2019s statement that \u201cif the Proposed Facts were judicially noticed the Trial Chamber could rely on them, together with other evidence, to draw inferences about notice to the Accused of crimes committed by SRK forces\u201d,[4] and recalls that evidence of the accused\u2019s notice of the crimes has to be produced separately from judicial notice of their existence.\n[1] Karemera Appeals Decision [Prosecutor v. \u00c9douard Karemera et al., Case No. ICTR-98-44-AR73(C), Decision on Prosecutor\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal of Decision on Judicial Notice, 16 June 2006], para. 50.\n[4] Prosecution\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal [Prosecution\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal Brief against Trial Chamber\u2019s Decision on Prosecution\u2019s Motion for Judicial Notice of Adjudicated Facts and Prosecution\u2019s Catalogue of Agreed Facts with Dissenting Opinion of Judge Harhoff , 10 May 2007], para. 15.\n21. [In the Karemera Appeals Decision] the Appeals Chamber held that the key question regarding admission of facts of common knowledge, pursuant to Rule 94(A) of the Rules, is \u201cwhether the proposition can reasonably be disputed\u201d and \u201cnot whether a proposition is put in legal or layman\u2019s terms.\u201d[1] When a Trial Chamber determines that a fact is notorious and not subject to reasonable dispute, it is obliged to take judicial notice of it under Rule 94(A) of the Rules. It has no discretion to act otherwise.[2] It is irrelevant whether the fact in question is defined by terms with a legal meaning as long as these terms describe factual situations.[3] In this respect, the Appeals Chamber does not agree with the Prosecution that the Trial Chamber held \u201cthat legal conclusions could be judicially noticed under Rule 94(A)\u201d of the Rules.[4] The Trial Chamber limited itself to noting that the Appeals Chamber in Karemera ruled that \u201cthe submission that the term \u2018genocide\u2019 is a legal characterisation\u201d could not even be considered given that \u201cRule 94(A) does not provide the Trial Chamber with discretion to refuse judicial notice on this basis.\u201d[5] This constitutes an accurate reflection of the Karemera Appeals Decision.[6] Furthermore, \u201cwhereas judicial notice under Rule 94(A) is mandatory, judicial notice under Rule 94(B) is discretionary.\u201d[7] Thus, the Trial Chamber correctly interpreted the Karemera Appeals Decision when it ruled that its conclusions with regard to Rule 94(A) could not be apposite to Rule 94(B) of the Rules.\n22. The Appeals Chamber additionally notes that the Trial Chamber correctly held that \u201c[j]udicial notice pursuant to Rule 94(B) is not designed for the importing of legal conclusions from past proceedings\u201d.[8] To determine \u201cwhether a proposed fact is truly a factual finding\u201d, the Trial Chamber referred to the Kraji\u0161nik Decision which adjudicated that \u201cmany findings have a legal aspect, if one is to construe this expression broadly. It is therefore necessary to determine on a case-by-case basis whether the proposed fact contains findings or characterizations which are of an essentially legal nature and which must, therefore, be excluded.\u201d[9] Thus, the Prosecution does not accurately represent the findings in the Impugned Decision when it claims that the Trial Chamber held \u201cthat facts could not be judicially noticed if they were described with legal language\u201d.[10] The Appeals Chamber also observes that the Trial Chamber\u2019s conclusion is fully in line with the jurisprudence of the Trial Chambers on this issue[11] \u2013 including after the issuance of the Karemera Appeals Decision.[12]\n[1] Karemera Appeals Decision, para. 29.\n[2] Ibid., paras 29, 37.\n[4] Prosecution\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal, para. 29.\n[5] Impugned Decision, para. 35, citing the Karemera Appeals Decision, para. 37.\n[9] Impugned Decision, para. 33, quoting Prosecutor v.

[\u2026] The Rules are silent on this point of whether a judgement of a Trial Chamber can amount to either \u201cadjudicated facts\u201d or \u201cdocumentary evidence\u201d within the province of Rule 94(B).[1] The Appeals Chamber notes that the judgement in Prosecutor v. Kordi\u0107 and Cerkez is currently being appealed by both the accused and the Prosecution. Since the Appeals Chamber may in the course of that appeal revise the findings of the Trial Chamber, the Appeals Chamber thinks it unwise to assume that the facts contained in the Trial Chamber\u2019s judgement are \u201cadjudicated\u201d. Only facts in a judgement, from which there has been no appeal, or as to which any appellate proceedings have concluded, can truly be deemed \u201cadjudicated facts\u201d within the meaning of Rule 94(B). As to Rule 94(B)\u2019s authorisation for judicial notice of \u201cdocumentary evidence\u201d in a different set of proceedings, the Appeals Chamber believes this Rule envisioned permitting a Chamber to take judicial notice of discrete items of evidence such as the testimony of a witness or a trial exhibit, not an entire judgement.\n12. [\u2026] The Appeals Chamber considers that a vague and generalised request to take notice of an entire judgement is insufficient to invoke Rule 94(B). A request must specifically point out the paragraph(s) or parts of the judgement of which it wishes judicial notice to be taken, and refer to facts, as found by the Trial Chamber. Equally, as expressed earlier with regard to the Second Josipovi} Request, an entire judgement may not be the object of judicial notice.\n[1] NOTE: AT THE TIME OF THE PRESENT DECISION RULE 94(B) OF THE RULES PROVIDED:\n(B) At the request of a party or proprio motu, a Trial Chamber, after hearing the parties, may decide to take judicial\nnotice of adjudicated facts or documentary evidence from other proceedings of the Tribunal relating to matters at\nissue in the current proceedings.\nAS A RESULT OF AN AMENDMENT ON 8 DECEMBER 2010 RULE 94(B) OF THE RULES READS:\nnotice of adjudicated facts or of the authenticity of documentary evidence from other proceedings of the Tribunal\nrelating to matters at issue in the current proceedings.\n261. Further, the Appeals Chamber recalls that adjudicated facts of which a trial chamber takes judicial notice pursuant to Rule 94(B) of the Rules \u201care merely presumptions that may be rebutted [\u2026] with evidence at trial\u201d.[1] In this context, the Appeals Chamber emphasises that the final assessment of a piece of evidence is based on the totality of the evidence in a given case, as the same piece of evidence can be assessed differently in different cases because of other evidence on the record.[2] The mechanism of Rule 94(B) of the Rules does not allow a trial chamber to defer to the assessment of the evidence by another trial chamber on the ground that it was fashioned to favour consistency and uniformity in the Tribunal\u2019s case-law.[3] The Trial Chamber therefore had the obligation to assess the evidence and reach its own conclusion.[4] The Appeals Chamber therefore finds that the Trial Chamber did not err in law in finding that the adjudicated fact in question, namely the accuracy of the U\u017eice Hospital Records, was rebutted by the evidence presented at trial.\n[1] See Prosecutor v. Dragomir Milo\u0161evi\u0107, Case No. IT-98-29/1-AR73.1, Decision on Interlocutory Appeals Against Trial Chamber\u2019s Decision on Prosecution\u2019s Motion for Judicial Notice of Adjudicated Facts and Prosecution\u2019s Catalogue of Agreed Facts, 26 June 2007, para. 16, referring to The Prosecutor v. \u00c9douard Karemera et al., Case No. ICTR-98-44-AR73(C), Decision on Prosecutor\u2019s Interlocutory Appeal of Decision on Judicial Notice, 16 June 2006, para. 42.\n[2] \u00c9douard Karemera et al. v.

Accordingly, the Appeals Chamber upheld (paras 12-18) the Trial Chamber\u2019s decision not to find that third category JCE liability can be imposed only when the JCE is \u201climited to a specific operation and a restricted geographical area, and where the Accused was not structurally remote from the actual perpetrators of the crimes.\u201d[1]\nThe Appeals Chamber, however, cautioned that (para. 17):\nThird category JCE liability can be imposed only for crimes that were foreseeable to an accused. In certain circumstances, crimes committed by other participants in a large-scale enterprise will not be foreseeable to an accused.\n[1] Prosecutor v. Karemera et al., Case No. ICTR-98-44, Decision on Defence Motion Challenging the Jurisdiction of the Tribunal \u2013 Joint Criminal Enterprise Rules 72 and 73 of the Rules of Procedure and Evidence, 5 August 2005, para. 4 (internal footnotes omitted).\nDocumentary evidence |\n45. With respect to the Prosecution\u2019s argument to the effect that documentary evidence must also be adjudicated evidence, the Appeals Chamber concurs with the Trial Chamber in the Bizimungu case which concluded that the wording of Rule 94(B) of the Rules suggests that the term \u201cadjudicated\u201d only relates to \u201cfacts\u201d and does not extend to \u201cdocumentary evidence\u201d. Thus, the Trial Chamber held that:\n\u201c\u2026under Sub-Rule 94(B), both facts (which have been previously adjudicated) and documents (which have been received and admitted in previous proceedings) may be judicially noticed. Therefore, to be taken judicial notice of, the facts must be adjudicated facts, meaning facts upon which, on a previous occasion, in another case, this Tribunal in any of its several Chambers has deliberated and made a decision. Such decision must be conclusive in that it is not under challenge before the Appeals Chamber or if challenged, the Appeals Chamber upheld it. Regarding the second part of Sub-Rule 94(B), to be taken judicial notice of, documents must constitute \u201cdocumentary evidence from other proceedings of the Tribunal\u201d and must \u201crelate to the matter at issue in this case\u201d. [1]\n[\u2026] Documents do not need to be \u201cadjudicated\u201d i.e. the Chamber in other proceedings does not need to have pronounced a specific and unchallenged or unchallengeable decision on the admissibility of the document. It is enough that the document was admitted into evidence or \u201cadmis lors d\u2019autres affaires port\u00e9es devant le Tribunal\u201d[2]\n47. The Appeals Chamber notes that concerning \u201cdocumentary evidence\u201d, Rule 94(B) of the Rules enables a Chamber to take judicial notice of discrete items of evidence such as the testimony of a witness or a trial exhibit, not an entire judgement.[3] Accordingly, the Appeals Chamber could take judicial notice of the section of the report proffered [\u2026] if it was satisfied that it meets the requirements set out in Rules 94(B) and 115 of the Rules. [\u2026] The Appeals Chamber finds nonetheless, that it would not serve judicial economy to grant the Appellant\u2019s request and judicially notice entire sections of a report or document, since the Appellant has not demonstrated exactly which part of the section is relevant to the current proceedings. The mere reference to whole sections or paragraphs of \u201cdocumentary evidence\u201d of a previous judgement is insufficient to trigger the exercise of the Chamber\u2019s discretion under Rule 94(B) of the Rules.[4]\n55. [\u2026] Bearing in mind the text of Rule 94(B) of the Rules, the Appeals Chamber notes that one paragraph in a judgement can contain more than one fact. Accordingly, a request pursuant to Rule 94(B) of the Rules must be specific if the facts sought to be judicially noticed are to be clearly determined. A motion under Rule 94(B) of the Rules should specify exactly which fact is sought to be judicially noticed and how each fact relates to the matters at issue in the current proceedings, in the instant case, to the grounds of appeal raised.[5]\n[1] Prosecutor v.

        "raw_content": "Nobilo Contempt Appeal Judgement - 30.05.2001 ALEKSOVSKI Zlatko\n55. There has been some debate concerning the procedure laid down by Rule 77(F)[1] under which it is for a Chamber, proprio motu, to initiate the proceedings whereby a person is called upon to answer the allegations against him when the Chamber has reason to believe he may be in contempt. This is in contrast with the procedure laid down by Rule 91[2], whereby a Chamber may direct the Prosecutor to investigate whether a witness has knowingly and wilfully given false testimony, with a view to the preparation and submission of an indictment for false testimony. The suggestion has been made that it should be for the Prosecutor to initiate proceedings for contempt by way of indictment or, where the alleged contemnor is associated with the prosecution, for an amicus curiae appointed by a Chamber to do so.\n56. It is not the intention of the Appeals Chamber to enter this debate, but its existence underlines the danger of a Chamber being both the prosecutor and the judge in relation to a charge of contempt, and the possibility in such a case that the ordinary procedures and protections for the parties are overlooked. [\u2026] It is therefore essential that, where a Chamber initiates proceedings for contempt itself, it formulates at an early stage the nature of the charge with the precision expected of an indictment, and that it gives the parties the opportunity to debate what is required to be proved. It is only in this way that the alleged contemnor can be afforded a fair trial.[3]\n[1] NOTE: AT THE TIME OF THE PRESENT DECISION RULE 77(F) PROVIDED:\n(F) When a Chamber has reason to believe that a person may be in contempt of the Tribunal, it may, proprio motu, initiate proceedings and call upon that person that he or she may be found in contempt, giving notice of the nature of the allegations against that person. After affording such person an opportunity to appear and answer personally or by counsel, the Chamber may, if satisfied beyond reasonable doubt, find the person to be in contempt of the Tribunal.\n[2] NOTE: AT THE TIME OF THE PRESENT DECISION RULE 91(B) PROVIDED:\n(B) If a Chamber has strong grounds for believing that a witness has knowingly and wilfully given false testimony, it may direct the Prosecutor to investigate the matter with a view to the preparation and submission of an indictment for false testimony.\n[3] An example of what is required may be found in Prosecutor v Simi\u0107 et al, Case IT-95-9-R77, Scheduling Order in the Matter of Allegations Against Accused Milan Simi\u0107 and his Counsel, 7 July 1999, pp 3-6.\nVoir dire |\nProcedure |\nDecision on Voir Dire and Statements of the Accused - 27.10.2006 NTAHOBALI & NYIRAMASUHUKO\nParagraphs 12 and 13 of the Interlocutory Appeal contain the ratio of the Decision, finding that the Trial Chamber had not gone beyond the discretion allocated to it on evidentiary and procedural matters:\n12. The Defence for Mr. Ntahobali argues that this procedure adopted by the Trial Chamber was impermissibly informal[1] since prior statements of an accused should be subject to an inquiry conducted \u201cin accordance with pre-established rules of law which are known to the parties\u201d[2] and not by merely requiring the parties to indicate their views on whether the Rules were complied with in taking the Previous Statements.[3] The Defence for Mr. Ntahobali has not identified any error in the procedure adopted by the Trial Chamber. The voir dire procedure originates from the common law and does not have a strictly defined process in this Tribunal.[4] There are no provisions in the Rules which direct Trial Chambers to adopt a formal procedure for determining whether they should conduct a voir dire. Instead, Rule 89(B) of the Rules provides that reference may be made to evidentiary rules \u201cwhich will best favour a fair determination of the matter\u201d. This discretion can extend to the conduct of a voir dire procedure when it is determined appropriate by the Trial Chamber.[5] The procedure conducted by the Trial Chamber permitted the parties to make submissions as to whether the Prosecution and Co-Accused could use the Previous Statements to impeach Mr. Ntahobali. The Trial Chamber considered the submissions of the parties on whether it was necessary to grant the request for a voir dire procedure by the Defence of Mr. Ntahobali, and after finding that it was not necessary, the Trial Chamber determined the admissibility of the Previous Statements on the basis of the submissions made by the parties. At several stages during the hearing[6] the Trial Chamber affirmed that this was the procedure to be followed, in particular when it stated:\nWe would like to hear the challenge, the basis of the challenge [to the admissibility of the Previous Statements]. And in the process, certainly, the Trial Chamber will examine the [admissibility] issue, including whether to determine the issue as presently presented, or whether there would be any need for voir \u2013 for trial within a trial, voir dire.[7]\n13. Therefore, the parties were informed of the procedure the Trial Chamber was adopting and made submissions pursuant to this procedure.[8] Indeed, the procedure adopted by the Trial Chamber, while characterised as one adopted to determine whether a voir dire procedure was necessary, was very similar to a voir dire. The Trial Chamber heard the parties on the circumstances surrounding the taking of the Previous Statements, admitting a written affidavit from Mr. Ntahobali into evidence on that issue, and decided that no further evidence was required to determine whether the Previous Statements were in accordance with the Rules. The Appeals Chamber does not see any abuse of the Trial Chamber\u2019s discretion in the way that it chose to proceed.\n[1] [The Prosecutor v.

The Appeals Chamber does not consider that Bo\u0161koski\u2019s Appeal is admissible as there is no basis upon which he could have properly filed his jurisdictional challenge before the Trial Chamber. The Appeals Chamber recalls that Rule 72(A)(i) of the Rules of Procedure and Evidence of the International Tribunal (\u201cRules\u201d) requires that challenges to jurisdiction must be \u201cbrought not later than thirty days after disclosure by the Prosecutor to the defence of all material and statements referred to in Rule 66(A)(i)\u201d. Since disclosure for this case was completed in 2005, this Rule did not apply in this instance. Similarly, Rule 50(C) of the rules, which accords the accused \u201ca further period of thirty days in which to file preliminary motions pursuant to Rule 72 in respect of new charges\u201d did not apply since the amended indictment did not add new charges. Accordingly, Bo\u0161koski cannot be considered as now having the right to file an appeal under Rule 72(B)(i) of the Rules. Furthermore, the Appeals Chamber questions the Trial chamber\u2019s decision to recognize this motion under Rule 54 of the Rules, which effectually allowed for the circumvention of the clear provisions of Rule 72 and the time limits therein. Seeing, however, that the Impugned Decision was considered on the basis of Rule 54, only Rule 73 of the rules would have been applicable, necessitating certification.[1]\nIn his Partially Dissenting Opinion, Judge Pocar was of the view that it was within the Trial Chamber\u2019s discretion to allow Bo\u0161koski\u2019s motion under Rule 54. He continues:\nIn my opinion, as a challenge to jurisdiction under rule 72(B) gives rise to an appeal as of right, when such a challenge arises under any other rule from a Trial Chamber, it should also be treated as allowing a right of appeal. Any other interpretation would create the possibility of an accused standing trial on charges that are not properly brought before this Tribunal. As was stated by the Appeals Chamber in Prosecutor v. Tadi\u0107, in its decision on jurisdiction, \u201c[s]uch a fundamental matter as the jurisdiction of the International Tribunal should not be kept for decision at the end of a potentially lengthy, emotional and expensive trial\u201d.[2] While that statement was made in relation to whether the International Tribunal had any jurisdiction at all, it is equally applicable to whether the Tribunal\u2019s jurisdiction pursuant to Article 7(3) extends to all types of criminal activity of subordinates.[3] [\u2026] I do not consider that the accused\u2019s challenge to the issue as constituting a defect in the form of the indictment should preclude his challenge of the same issue as on of jurisdiction.[4]\n[1] Decision, para. 3\n[2] Prosecutor v Du\u0161ko Tadi\u0107, Case No. IT-94-AR72, Decision on the Defence Motion for Interlocutory Appeal on Jurisdiction, 2 October 1995, para. 6\n[3] Decision, Partially Dissenting Opinion of Judge Pocar, para. 2\n[4] Ibid., para. 3\nDecision on Access to Confidential Information - 09.09.2005 BLAGOJEVI\u0106 & JOKI\u0106\n[\u2026] [C]ounsel participating in appeals proceedings are expected to familiarize themselves with the relevant procedural requirements;",

In exercising their discretion to impose a sentence, Trial Chambers must take into account the special context of a plea agreement as an additional factor. A plea agreement is a matter of considerable importance as it involves an admission of guilt by the accused. Furthermore, recommendation of a range of sentences or, as in the present case, a specific maximum sentence, reflects an agreement between the parties as to what in their view would constitute a fair sentence. The Appeals Chamber notes that Rule 62ter (B) of the Rules unambiguously states that Trial Chambers shall not be bound by any agreement between the parties. Nevertheless, in the specific context of a sentencing judgement following a plea agreement, the Appeals Chamber emphasises that Trial Chambers shall give due consideration to the recommendation of the parties and, should the sentence diverge substantially from that recommendation, give reasons for the departure.[1] Those reasons, combined with the Trial Chambers\u2019 obligation pursuant to Article 23(2) of the Statute to render a Judgement \u201caccompanied by a reasoned opinion in writing\u201d, will facilitate a meaningful exercise of the convicted person\u2019s right to appeal and allow the Appeals Chamber \u201cto understand and review the findings of the Trial Chamber\u201d.[2]\n[1] Dragan Nikoli\u0107 Judgement on Sentencing Appeal, para. 89.\n[2] Ibid., citing Kunarac et al.

Tolkien\u2019s novel The Hobbit has been fraught with delays and difficulties, Warner Bros. has announced that production has finally started. There were concerns that The Hobbit would leave New Zealand due to a labor strike, but the 3D movies will indeed be shot consecutively against the familiar backdrops from The Lord of the Rings. As a prequel to the award-winning trilogy, The Hobbit takes place in Middle-earth 60 years prior to Frodo receiving The Ring. Instead, the two-part adaptation will follow Frodo\u2019s Uncle Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) as he is swept up in a quest of his own.\nHit the jump for the full press release, synopsis and two production images.\nAlong with the new comers cast in The Hobbit, some recognizable faces from The Lord of the Rings trilogy will be returning. Ian McKellen will reprise his role as Gandalf the Grey, Cate Blanchett will return as Galadriel, Andy Serkis will once again don the mocap suit to play Gollum and Elijah Wood will briefly appear as Frodo. If you still haven\u2019t seen The Lord of the Rings trilogy, you\u2019re in luck! An extended edition of all three films should be available on Blu-ray later this year.

        "raw_content": "Innovation isn't just for the young\nAGE Platform Europe General Assembly\nEurope today is in a time of change. It's the short-term economic issues that grab the headlines. But there's another bigger change, too. Perhaps more significant in the long term: our continent is getting oldersentence permalink\nYour organisation, AGE, is for those in Europe over 50. Already today that means you represent 150 million people. By 2060, though, you could represent close to half the EU population! And over that same period, the number of over 65s will almost double. While government spending on related areas could increase by 20%.sentence permalink\nThere are a number of ways to look at that. You could see it as a triumph: advancing medical science and enlightened public policy have delivered something wonderful for our citizens. Longer, healthier lives.sentence permalink\nOr you could see it as a fantastic market opportunity. After all, the potential 'silver market' for older people is already worth around \u20ac3 trillion \u2013 and growing fast. In today's economy, we should keep a close eye on such growth areas.sentence permalink\nOr you could see it purely as a challenge. As a rising cost in the national accounts. As an awkward trend demanding an arduous response. And, personally, I think too many people do just see it that way.sentence permalink\nBut however you see it, one thing is clear. The change is huge, and we must respond.sentence permalink\nMost well-informed people have got this message; even some politicians. But we are not really changing our politics, our policies, our philosophy; we are not thinking beyond the short term. Most decision-makers are focused on the immediate economic crisis; ignoring the fact that Europe in 2060 will look totally different. We're talking about a change that calls for more than a few tweaks to pension rules; we need to re-think our society. Ask what it will look like in a few decades' time. What its needs will be. And what will be the impact on people, on public spending, on planning. Because those impacts will be substantial.sentence permalink\nWe need innovation. But how do we stimulate and support it? That's a tricky question. But for me, the answer is in digital technology.sentence permalink\nWhen people think of ICT innovation, they too often think of young people. Of teenagers constantly texting, sites targeted at twenty-somethings, start-up millionaires barely out of high school.sentence permalink\nBut new technology isn't just about the younger generation. And innovation isn't just for the young: it's for everyone. It can serve the most vulnerable in our society. It can help older people lead happier, healthier lives. And it can help in our shift to an age-friendly society. It can, and it should.sentence permalink\nTake healthcare. Our health institutions were built in a different age; to deal with acute conditions, short-term problems, hospital stays. An older population faces a different challenge: conditions are often chronic, degenerative, and multiple. That calls for a different kind of treatment. One that does not rob people of dignity and independence, but lets them stay active and healthy as they age. And ICT provides many ideas for how to do that; from simple mobile apps that empower people to take control, to entire environments for assisted living.sentence permalink\nAt EU level we are investing in those ideas. Our FP7 and Horizon 2020 programmes will continue to look at fundamental research: into the effect of ageing on body, mind and community. Into the technologies, services and applications that can tackle these challenges. And at how we can help older people live actively and independently for longer.sentence permalink\nFrom chips in your shoes that help people keep their balance to robot companions that assist people at home - we are researching the innovations that could help older people. And I know we're not the only ones.sentence permalink\nBut smart gadgets aren't enough: we need to use them. We need to roll those ideas out into the real world. Seize new opportunities. Innovate in services. And start making a difference to people's lives.sentence permalink\nWhen people do roll-out those ideas, they see the benefits. Trials in regions across Europe have shown that innovations like telehealth can improve survival and recovery: and cut inconvenient, costly hospital visits.sentence permalink\nIn fact, the ideas and experiences are already out there: it's time to start swapping them; and using them.sentence permalink\nThat is the philosophy of our Innovation Partnership on Active and Health Ageing. A platform and a forum for many actors to come together. All together, we have more than 3,000 parties contributing to 261 initiatives, focussed on 6 concrete actions, from independent living to integrated care.sentence permalink\nThese people aren't in it for the money: this is a partnership, not an EU funding programme. They're there to gather evidence, share and learn from each other. It's a great platform to build the evidence base, energise those who already get the message and educate those who don't. And those hundreds of initiatives are already helping improve the lives of millions of Europeans.sentence permalink\nI'm delighted that AGE Platform is a very active participant in that scheme: with 45 partners reaching over 360 administrations. I know you really understand, share and promote our vision. And I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for that work.sentence permalink\nBut healthcare is just one part of an age-friendly EU. It's also about having homes more suited to older people. Or building smarter cities, where it's easier to get around, and which are more responsive to people's needs. In fact Smart Cities is the subject of our \"other\" European Innovation Partnership.sentence permalink\nAnd, of course, we need the fast broadband networks that make all those things possible.sentence permalink\nSo in fact healthcare is just one part of the puzzle. We need treatment, but also prevention, social care, and better living. And those ingredients must be integrated, if we are to help older people live independent and fulfilling lives for longer.sentence permalink\nThese changes to our society are in the distant future. Too far in the future for most politicians to focus on, or care about. But sooner or later we are going to feel the effects of that change. And the sooner we start planning for that future, the better the world we will provide for our citizens.sentence permalink\nAnd that calls for a change in attitude. Ageing isn't a problem, but a source of innovation and growth. It's not just an expanding cost to be cut, but a growing market opportunity to be served. We shouldn't protect powers and practices, but must come together to share, and see how we can do things differently.sentence permalink\nWe can't adapt our people to suit a legacy system \u2013 we must transform our practice to fit changing needs.sentence permalink\nWith the right will and the right vision, I know we can get there. I thank you for your support.sentence permalink",

        "title": "Conservative Happenings: Could A Middle-Aged White Man Ever Become President?",
        "raw_content": "Could A Middle-Aged White Man Ever Become President?\nMartin O'Malley was standing on a chair, shouting in a dark bar in Iowa City. He may have been nearly a thousand miles from Baltimore, but for him, that wasn't far enough.\nIt was a stormy summer evening, and about 150 people had come to hear O'Malley make the case that he should be president\u2014a case that had gotten frustratingly tricky. Not that long ago, O'Malley, the former governor of Maryland and a perpetually rising star in Democratic politics, seemed like the no-brainer alternative to Hillary Clinton. \u201cThe best manager working in government today,\u201d theWashington Monthly called him, a problem solver who had slashed crime as mayor of Baltimore. But now those rosy urban achievements had taken on the stink of controversy, complicating his pitch for the presidency.\nA young woman in a peasant skirt raised her hand. \u201cAs mayor of Baltimore, you oversaw an era of mass arrests of nonviolent offenders,\u201d she told the candidate, citing statistics\u2014\u201c110,000 arrests were made in one year in a city of 620,000 people\u201d\u2014before getting to her question. \u201cWhat are we supposed to expect from you on the issue of mass incarceration and institutional racism?\u201d\nAs he listened, O'Malley's smile grew forced and his jaw began to bulge. He has a temper. Plus, he doesn't like to be called out. As mayor, O'Malley once paid a visit to a couple of radio hosts criticizing him for being insufficiently concerned about crime. \u201cCome outside after the show,\u201d he scolded them, \u201cand I'll kick your ass.\u201d\nNow, in Iowa City, O'Malley seemed on the verge of unloading again. He'd been on edge since April, when riots erupted in Baltimore after cops were implicated in the killing of an unarmed black man named Freddie Gray. Years of mistrust between the city's police and its black citizens were glaringly exposed\u2014and suddenly the two terms O'Malley spent as the city's mayor from 1999 to 2007 were subject to brutal re-examination. O'Malley\u2014who had always taken plenty of credit for slowing crime by employing tough \u201czero tolerance\u201d policing techniques\u2014found himself being blamed for the city's racial acrimony.\nDavid Simon, the former Baltimore Sun reporter and creator of The Wire, declaimed that \u201cthe stake through the heart of police procedure in Baltimore was Martin O'Malley.\u201d On Meet the Press, Chuck Todd incredulously asked O'Malley, \u201cDo you think you can still run on your record as mayor of Baltimore, governor of Maryland, given all this?\u201d And when O'Malley launched his presidential campaign, protesters crashed the festivities, chanting \u201cBlack Lives Matter\u201d and burnishing NOMALLEY signs. In the wake of police violence in Ferguson, Cleveland, New York, and now Baltimore, the old-school good-governance dictates about getting tough on crime seemed out of touch. Suddenly Democrats were scrambling to take up the mantle of police reform, and O'Malley was stranded on the wrong side of one of the defining issues for liberals today.\n\u201cYou weren't in Baltimore in 1999, but I was,\u201d he told the young woman, with more than a hint of contempt in his voice. \u201cIt looked more like Mexico City than an American city, and the gutters quite literally ran with blood.\u201d There was no applause. These people didn't get it, he seemed to be thinking. What he'd done in Baltimore was worthy of their respect and not, as the woman in the peasant skirt suggested, part of \u201cthe long history of brutalization\u201d of \u201ccommunities of color.\u201d He was the guy, he wanted to tell them, who could save those communities\u2014the guy who knows that you don't stop criminals by asking politely and that turning around a city isn't as easy as replacing open-air drug markets with shabby-chic condos. But that kind of talk had fallen out of fashion. The political hand O'Malley had been planning to play was now a loser. The man who wanted to be president swallowed hard and tried to pivot to something else.\nLabels: Baltimore, GQ, Iowa CIty, Martin O'Malley, Maryland",

        "title": "Mr Vik Veer | ENT Consultant Surgeon",
        "raw_content": "Treatment for a Blocked Nose\nPlease scroll down to the YouTube video on radiofrequency ablation for blocked noses\nThere are many reasons for people to feel that their nose is constantly blocked, but the most common causes are mentioned below:\nThis is inflammation of the nasal lining. This swelling or bogginess blocks the nose and can make it difficult to breathe. Sometimes this blockage only affects one nostril at a time and can depend on which side you sleep on at night. This can be caused by allergies or infections. Infections of the nose are covered on the sinusitis page.\nThese are extremely boggy areas of nasal lining that have expanded to such a degree that they look like clear grapes within the nose. We do not completely understand why this happens and why it happens to certain individuals, but we are learning more about how to treat these polyps and what measures are needed to stop them being so distressing.\nThe septum is the middle partition of the nose, and normally it lies roughly central within the nose allowing air to pass equally on both sides. Occasionally it can be more prominent on one side rather than the other, and therefore lead to an airflow blockage on that side. Occasionally it blocks both nostrils especially if the septum bends one way and then the other. This type of nasal blockage rarely improves even with nasal sprays.\nThis is a hole in the septum which can be caused by a number of different drugs, medications, diseases and even nose picking. Normally these cause no problem, but they may cause crusting within the nose, a whistling noise when speaking, and also a feeling of nasal obstruction. The septum can be completely straight, but with a hole within it some people feel blocked because the airflow is not right anymore. The hole disrupts the direct flow through the nose and leads to more turbulent flow. The nose interprets this turbulent flow as a blocked nose and can cause significant difficulties for patients. Nasal sprays would not help, so operations are required to deal with this problem. These can range from the very simple (could be done with a local anaesthetic), to a very extensive. The choices depend on each clinical case, and Mr Vik Veer will be happy to discuss this with you.\nMasses / Tumours / Cancers within the Nose\nFortunately these are very rare, but should be suspected if one side of the nose is increasingly getting blocked with sometimes symptoms of bleeding, numbness around the face, swelling of the face, and loss of sense of smell. If you are worried that you might have a serious problem in the nose, the advice would be to see your General Practitioner as soon as possible and ask for an urgent appointment with an ENT surgeon. The NHS is extremely good at dealing with cancers and other extreme circumstances. Most patients are seen within 2 weeks. Of course Mr Vik Veer will see patients with these symptoms, and if there are any concerns after examination in clinic the normal plan would be to refer you to a local hospital or perform the scans and biopsy privately. Once the diagnosis has been made, treatment in a NHS cancer centre is very important as you will have the benefit of multiple experts looking after you.\nRhinitis is often caused by allergies and sometimes other substances which may affect the nose. A list of common allergies and irritants are listed below:\nHouse Dust Mite excretion \u2013 this is found in almost all houses in the UK. They are found in carpets, duvets, pillows etc.\nFur or dander from pets (dogs, mice, rats, horses etc.)\nCockroach \u2013 again common around most homes in the UK\nFel d 1 (found in cat sweat which is found therefore in the fur) & Fel d 4 (found in cat saliva)\nMould spores / fungi \u2013 found in homes affected by damp\nGrass / weed / tree pollens \u2013 this is often known as hay fever.\nFlour \u2013 bakers\nLatex \u2013 people who use latex gloves at work. Normally begins with a slightly sore or rough hands and progresses to worse symptoms over the years. A large percentage of NHS workers have Latex allergy without knowing it.\nWood dust \u2013 carpenters\nWheat products \u2013 gluten, oats, malt, barley\nCigarette or other smoke\nOther chemicals commonly found in the following occupations:\nFood processing, detergent manufacture, pharmaceutical manufacture, spray painting and paint manufacture, vinyl flooring, resin / glue / solvent manufacture, electronic soldering\nTesting for these can be done by a blood test or a skin prick test. There are advantages and disadvantages for both of these, but generally they only test for the most common problems. There is still a possibility that even though your test was negative, you could still have an allergy, albeit a rare one. Having a history of eczema, asthma, or food allergies even only as a child, makes the possibility of having allergic rhinitis more likely.\nThere are a number of different treatments for rhinitis, and choice is based on the symptoms experienced. For example a patient who has itchy throat and eyes with mild nasal blockage is treated very differently from a patient who only has a blocked nose, and again very differently from the patient who has a very \u2018drippy\u2019 nose. Understanding what the main problems are and what you want fixed alters the management considerably.\nThere are a variety of different sprays available, and some steroid sprays are better than others. Some patients do not need steroid sprays, but require a completely different spray altogether.\nBecause nasal decongestants cause such a problem in some patients, more detail about the seriousness of decongestant use is provided here. Otrivine, Sudafed or Vicks sprays should only be used for 7 days total. These sprays are very quick acting and give fantastic relief from a blocked nose for about 12 hours, but it is very important to understand that they can only be used for a very short time. The reason for this is that these drugs reduce the blood flow to the nose, which in turn reduces the bogginess of the lining of the nose. There is only so long that the nose can cope with no blood flow and when the effect of the decongestant wears off the body pours blood back into the nose to give the structures vital nutrients. This has the effect of making the blocked nose worse than it was before. Long term use of decongestants leads to its effect lasting for a shorter time, so that patients are seen constantly spraying it up the nose all day, rather than just once or twice. It is similar to being \u2018addicted\u2019 to decongestants and can cause structural problems in the nose with the nose being permanently damaged and requiring operations to solve the problem. Mr Vik Veer has experience with this condition (known as Rhinitis Medicamentosa), and would be happy to help you fix this problem. The first step is coming off the decongestants, as it is impossible to fix this problem whilst still on these drugs. You will need maximal treatment with a host of other sprays, before considering surgery. Mr Vik Veer will be happy to discuss the management plan with you, as it is generally slightly different for everyone.\nSometimes people simply cannot use steroid sprays, and look for alternative treatments. Mr Vik Veer is currently researching non-surgical treatments for a blocked nose, and a trial for this device is due to commence in 2017.\nTurbinoplasty Procedures\nPeople breathe predominately through the inferior part of the nasal cavity next to the septum (marked with a red circle in the diagram). Opening this area helps patients the most with their breathing. Operations a mainly divided into those that act on the septum (the middle partition of the nose), or the turbinates (bony protrusions from the side walls of the nasal cavity). In the diagram below there is a case of a straight septum, but turbinate that is blocking the nose.\nAs you can see, the turbinate on the right of the diagram is blocking the nasal airflow as the septum is not blocking the nose. In this case this turbinate should be treated to improve the nasal airflow. This assessment can be made in clinic and the options provided without any surgery being performed.\nRadiofrequency Ablation is a procedure that can be done under local anaesthetic if you wish as it is not too painful and only lasts a few minutes. It is much safer than the older techniques, as it causes less damage to the nose and is more precise. There are very few complications with this treatment and Mr Vik Veer will be happy to explain this all to you as he has taught other senior consultants this technique.\nOccasionally the bone within the turbinate is the problem rather than the lining. There are some options here as well, some are very minor, and some are longer operations.\nA septoplasty is when the middle partition of the nose is operated on. The septum can be bent, fractured or just too big for a number of different reasons. In these cases sprays have little or no effect on the breathing and really the only option is an operation. In some cases it might be worth considering the smaller turbinate operations just in case that helps enough to avoid a septoplasty operation. A septoplasty is quite a short operation lasting about 30 minutes in most cases, but it will mean that you should take a week or so off work to aid recovery and healing. It doesn\u2019t require any incisions that you can see from the outside (everything is done within the nose), and the vast majority of patients may go home the same day.\nAlthough it is considered a minor procedure, Mr Vik Veer does try his best to avoid causing any distress or discomfort and will explain all the options before suggesting a septoplasty. If you would like more information about septoplasty, Mr Vik Veer will be happy to discuss this with you.\nOccasionally the external structure of the nose is also deformed, and a rhinoplasty (\u2018nose job\u2019), is also required. Mr Vik Veer does not perform cosmetic procedures, but he will advise you of the consultants that have the best results in the country.\nRemoving nasal polyps is actually quite straightforward, however reducing the chances of them returning is quite a lot harder. Generally \u2018polypectomy\u2019 can just mean removing the bulk of the polyps allowing improved breathing, but there is a significant chance that they will grow back even with steroid sprays. Clearing out polyps from their \u2018roots\u2019 and opening up these areas so steroid sprays prevent polyps from growing back has been shown to reduce the chance of the polyps growing back. Avoiding multiple operations is something Mr Vik Veer is very keen on, and he will advise you on the various options for nasal polyps. The most important thing to remember is that the polypectomy operation does not \u2018cure\u2019 polyps, it merely cleans them out temporarily. The vast majority of patients will need steroid sprays to avoid another operation again. Mr Vik Veer uses medication before any procedure to try and avoid surgery if at all possible, and there are a number of therapies that may help with nasal polyps.\nThere are a number of reasons why someone may develop a hole in the septum (this is the midline partion of the nose). There are a number of techniques to close this hole as many people feel that it makes a whistling sound when they speak and causes the sensation of nasal obstruction. Septal buttons are very easy to insert, but they often cause crusting and other difficulties. A septal perforation repair is a major operation and is often not successful or too large an operation for most people. There are operations that lie between these two options. Mr Vik Veer would be happy to discuss these options with you in more detail.",

Smith - Windham Windham School District Update\nOver the past several months, there has been discussion in our community about the cost per student to educate our students in the Windham School District. We have had numerous inquiries from citizens, and would like to take this opportunity to provide some information and context on this question. Te State does not take a straight average but rather considers several factors in their calculation of this metric. Based on economics of scale, the cost per student at\nWindham High School has decreased as the number of students has increased, and we fully expect this trend to continue. In 2009, as a community, we made the decision to open Windham High School with freshmen and sophomores only. Tat sophomore class (now our senior class) is an unusually small class for us. Tat year, we also had some of the higher principle and interest payments on the high school bonds. In the 2010-2011 school year, our high school population grew to three grades with our seniors remaining at Salem High School. Between the two years, there was a 16 percent decrease in the costs per student at the high school level.\nAlso of note, during this period, our cost per student for our elementary population was below the state average. In the current year, we now have four classes at Windham\nHigh School, although our senior class is unusually small with approximately 130 students. Tis is an important context for this cost metric as, with fewer students, the economies that we recognize today, and will continue to recognize in the future with a full complement of high school students, were not fully realized in the first two years after we opened the high school. In the current year (which is not yet complete), we are estimating that the overall cost per student in the District will decrease from last year and be in the $12,100-$12,300 range. Towns (including Windham) will not report to the State until the school year is complete and cost data for the school year is finalized.\nAs always, please feel free to reach out to any of us with questions or concerns. You can send a comment to the Windham School Board at www.windhamsd.org.\nAdam Steel for the Windham School Board - Windham Webber for Planning Board\nWe are writing this letter in support of Carolyn Webber for\nPlanning Board. Carolyn has been a resident of Windham for many years and has the best interests of the town and its residents in mind. She has served the town of Windham\nin many capacities and seeks to continue this service to her community on the Planning Board. She is a valuable member of the community and seeks to share her time and expertise as a member of the Planning Board. She has always sought to balance the needs of the town with the desire to maintain the character of the town. Carolyn is a person who keeps and open mind and examines all of the facts before making a decision. She is an open minded and fair person. She has served on the Planning Board and we urge you to return her to the board on March 13.\nBeth Talbott and Mike Specian - Windham\nSupport Paul Terrien for Planning Board\nMy husband, Paul Terrien, is running for the Planning\nBoard. We have been married for over 46 exciting years. Paul has a sincere interest in Windham\u2019s future and when he expressed his desire to run for the Planning Board I was elated. He is retired and has much to offer with his diverse military and commercial career experience based upon an engineering and technical background, University of Florida education, U.S. Marine Corps aviation and 38 years with General Electric Aviation. We have been residents of Windham since 1980, purchasing an old camp on Cobbetts Pond. It was in poor condition so it became necessary to raze it. He served as the designer and architect of our proposed new home. Paul worked extensively with the Zoning and Planning Boards to arrive at acceptable and sensible solutions. His personal involvement with these boards afforded him the insight and appreciation of the competence, dedication and integrity required of the boards to maintain the trust assigned them by Windham residents. Paul\u2019s career focused on providing engineering and technical guidance and support to foreign military and international commercial airlines conducting successful business in 63 countries and diverse cultures. He lived for three years in possibly the most polluted and abused real estate on earth, Communist China. He spent nine years in Turkey serving on the Board of Directors of two of the largest aerospace companies in the Middle East. Te successful financial, engineering, environmental and structural planning he provided to these companies required years of extensive negotiations, education, and cooperation to reach the final goals of on achieving cost production. Te inevitable commercial and residential growth in\nWindham will no doubt continue to provide stress and challenges to our Planning Board and citizens. Paul believes that intelligent reasoned planning by informed members of the Planning Board and constructive inputs from a rich pool of talented citizens will produce the results we all want to achieve. Paul has no business interests or affiliations in Windham and has never previously served on a board in Windham. He has the desire, knowledge, practical experience and time to dedicate his services to the process of planned growth, character preservation and ecological conservation of Windham with fiscal responsibilities and taxpayer considerations always in mind. I proudly support Paul Terrien for Windham Planning\nBoard and hope you will consider doing so as well. Please vote on March 13.\nCarolyn Terrien \u2013 Windham\nPaul Terrien Candidate for Windham Planning Board\nMy name is Paul Terrien, and I have decided to run for the Windham Planning Board as I see an opportunity to\ncontribute my diverse engineering and technical experience to the critical process of long term strategic planning. I have lived in Windham since 1980 along with my wife, Carolyn, and over those years we have watched the inevitable growth of Windham. I am running because I believe that I can make a difference.\nWhen we came to Windham, we purchased an old rundown camp and rebuilt it from foundation blasting on up. I was the architect and designer and became intimately familiar with the building process and avenues to get necessary approvals and final zoning permissions. My career focused on providing engineering technical guidance and support to foreign military and international commercial airlines conducting successful business in 63 countries and diverse cultures. For nine years I served as a board member of Turkish Aircraft Industries and Turkish Engine Industries GE joint venture in Turkey. I believe the tasks involved to bring these complex ventures to fruition have provided me a solid background to contribute. To guide future commercial and residential growth, long range strategic planning is essential for Windham to protect and maintain its character.\nI hope to meet many of you over the next few weeks, to listen to your thoughts, and to earn your vote.\nPaul Terrien - Windham Tara Picciano for Library Trustee\nTe Library is in the midst of exciting times with the launching of GMILCS and they need an energetic, bright knowledgeable person as one of their new Library Trustees. I have known Tara for a few years, and know that she is a good fit and will do a great job. I highly recommend that you join me and vote for her March 13 at the Windham High School.\nCarolyn B. Webber - Windham\nMore Support for McLeod and Hohenberger\nPlease join me in supporting both Ross McLeod and\nRoger Hohenberger as they each run for re-election to the Windham Board of Selectman. Windham is fortunate to have these two gentlemen serve our\ncommunity. Ross Mcleod has a strong record of fiscal responsibility.\nDuring his tenure, our Town budget has stayed relatively flat while we have still managed to construct a million dollar, much-needed salt shed. He consistently votes to award purchases or contracts to the lowest bidder and to sending work out to bid (such as the Griffin Park parking lot engineering contract). His integrity on these issues is unquestionable, and his local-focus on Windham is unparalleled. Ross has frequently reached out to me (a Windham School\nBoard member) on School issues to ensure coordination between School and Town concerns. He has advocated for school impact fees bringing millions of dollars to our schools over the years. Ross\u2019s concern for the quality of life for Windham residents extends to his support of our Police and Fire Departments through public safety impact fees, support for necessary equipment for these teams, and his even spending an evening with Windham fire fighters to better understand their work and their needs. Ross is a supporter of growth in Windham, but seeks to ensure that growth is responsible and reflects Windham\u2019s distinctive character and maintains our property values.\nIf you have been thinking about\u2026\n\u2022 Better Management of your finances\n\u2022 Convenient ways to access cash\n\u2022 Tackling those home repairs that you have been postponing\n\u2022 Remodeling your present home versus trading up or building a new one\n\u2022 Planning for your children\u2019s education\nAn Enterprise Bank Home Equity Line may be the answer for you!\nBorrow up to 75% of the value of your home, less your first mortgage balance\n603-635-2477 EnterpriseBanking.com 139 Bridge Street, Pelham, NH\n* Access Equity Line of Credit 222 has an ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) of 2.22% for the first six monthly payments. ** After the promotional period, the rate becomes a variable APR of Prime Rate for the term of the loan, adjusting monthly, however the minimum APR is 3.875%.

Roger asks the tough questions and is comfortable making the often unpopular (but responsible) calls on Town spending. Please join me in voting for Ross McLeod and Roger\nHoehenberger on March 13. Let\u2019s keep these two committed Selectman working for Windham!\nStephanie Wimmer \u2013 Windham\nJoin Me in Voting for McLeod I ask that you join me in supporting Ross McLeod for\nreelection to the Board of Selectmen. I have known Ross for almost 15 years and have worked with him closely on a multitude of volunteer activities throughout the years. Ross\u2019s track record on the BOS shows that he is a bright, dedicated, fair-minded leader in our community. He has no private agenda and is concerned only with the best interests of Windham and its residents.\nGlen R. Yergeau - Windham\nPlease Support School Article 3 in Pelham\nTis is a Letter in support of Warrant Article 3 on the\nPelham School District ballot. Te Warrant Article reads; \u201cShall the Pelham School\nDistrict vote to approve the cost items included in the collective bargaining agreement reached between the School Board and PESPA (Pelham Education Support Personnel Association) which calls for the following increases in salaries and benefits at the current staffing level: Year: Estimated Increase: 2012-2013 $39,973 and further to raise and appropriate the sum of $39,973 (Tirty-nine thousand, nine hundred and seventy-three dollars) for the 2012-2013 year, such sum representing the additional costs attributable to the increase in salaries and benefits required by the new agreement over those that would be paid at the current staffing levels.\u201d A summary of the job description of an Instructional Assistant would be: Assist students with behavioral disabilities within a classroom environment or other school setting; collaboratively support the implementation of Individual Education Plans (IEPs) under the direction of qualifies professionals. Te overwhelming majority of our support staff (under\nPESPA) serve our students with special needs. However, it is important to note that we also have some \u2018regular\u2019 instructional assistants who work in the kindergarten (more support needed due to the age of the students), our libraries, and a small number of classroom IAs float between grades at the elementary school. We also have some support staff who are teacher-certified tutors who provide direct instruction to students and, on rare occasion (none right now) student- specific nurses who are considered support staff under the PESPA CBA. Please support our over 100 Instructional Aids. Tis CBA\nwas reached with mutual respect and understanding. Pelham School Board - Pelham\nSchool District Treasurer a Two Way Race\nby Barbara O\u2019Brien It seems that 2012 is the year of the contested race. While\nmany years there aren\u2019t even enough candidates to fill up the ballot, the interest in being elected to public office this year seems to be at an all-time high. Competition is even being seen for the job of school district treasurer in the Town of Windham. Generally, this position garners little interest, other than from Maura Pennisi, the woman who has held the job for the past 11 years. Prior to Pennisi\u2019s election in 2001, the same woman performed the duties of school district treasurer for an amazing 51 years. Maura Pennisi, who is the current school district treasurer, said she learned a lot from her long-term predecessor. \u201cRose taught me well,\u201d she told those gathered at Town Hall for the annual \u201cMeet the Candidates Night.\u201d When Pennisi took over the job nearly a dozen years ago, she was the person who transferred the handwritten ledgers to the computer. In addition to her duties as school district treasurer, Pennisi\nalso works in a management capacity for Partners in Health, a program for children in need of services. Pennisi said she has been able to maintain a positive relationship with the banks, the auditors and school district administrators and staff throughout the years that she has served as treasurer. \u201cI have maintained accurate records, that are balanced to the penny, for the last 11 years,\u201d Pennisi said. \u201cI consider myself to be efficient and consistent.\u201d All of Pennisi\u2019s records are available at the SAU 28 office for public viewing. Pennisi\u2019s competitor is Donna Sawyer, who moved to\nWindham 10 years ago. Sawyer has an Engineering Degree and has a history of employment in the corporate world. Referring to her family and herself, she said, \u201cWe hope to be here for the rest of our lives and we want to contribute to the town in which we live.\u201d Sawyer said she would like to bring the position of school district treasurer \u201cinto a more modern age. If elected, Sawyer said she would provide a full list of recommended changes in procedures. \u201cI would make sure that what is a considerable investment is used as intended,\u201d Sawyer said. \u201cI would close any gaps.\u201d\nElection Day is slated for Tuesday, March 13. The polls will be located at Windham High School and will be open to registered voters from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m.\nZero Percent Dropout Rate at Windham High\nby Barbara O\u2019Brien There are only 10 public high schools in New Hampshire that can boast a zero percent student dropout rate and Windham is currently one of those elite institutions. SAU 28 Assistant Superintendent Amanda Lecaroz said the main reason that the two and a half-year old high school is able to keep students going to class is that the teens are personally engaged in the learning process. \u201cThat\u2019s the secret,\u201d Lecaroz said. \u201cThat\u2019s our goal, to keep Windham High School students engaged\u201d in their own education. \u201cNot everybody fits the same mold\u201d when it comes to\nhow they learn best, Lecaroz continued, explaining the school administration\u2019s efforts to offer flexible programs and alternative learning options. \u201cWe want to see everyone graduate,\u201d Lecaroz emphasized.\n\u201cWe\u2019ll do everything we can to keep the dropout rate at zero percent.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Dustin Hoffman, The Graduate, 1967. Broadway\u2019s Mike Nichols came to town and saw, tested, auditioned and sometimes called back (Jack Nicholson certainly) almost every guy of the correct age for the titular Benjamin Braddock. From Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) and the kid from Shane (De Wilde, now 25 and dead in a Denver road accident at 30) to Robin (Burt Ward, too busy in TV\u2019s Batman)\u2026 Ford was recommended to Mike Nichols by Walter Beakel, head of Columbia's New Talent Programme, who had taught Nichols at Second City in Chicago, Both actors were too old for Ben Braddock, although Harrison's 25 was better than Dusty's 30. Nichols also looked at Keir Dullea, Charles Grodin (he won Nichols\u2019 next, Catch 22 instead), George Hamilton, Steve McQueen, Michael Parks, George Peppard. And the prerequisite outsider: MGM pactee turning director, Lee Stanley. Hoffman got it right: \u201cThere is no piece of casting in the 20th century that I know of that is more courageous than putting me in that part.\u201d\nGary Lockwood, The Model Shop, 1969.\n\u201cJacques Demy was the first to believe in me, \u201d said Ford, who remained friends with the French realisateur (and his equally talented film-maker wife, Agnes Varda). Demy insisted on casting Ford and scouted locations with him, but Columbia did not agree. But of course! Harrison told me that in 1966 how one executive had already written off the young contractee getting $115 a week\u2026 \"Kid - they always called me Kid\u2026 probably because they didn\u2019t know who the hell I was. \u201cKid, siddown\u2026 Lemme tell you a story.... First time Tony Curtis ever appeared in a movie, he delivered a bag of groceries\u2026. A bag of groceries! You took one look and you knew that was a star! You\u2026 You ain\u2019t got, it, kid!\u201d Despite 2001, Lockwood never had it.\nJon Voight, Midnight Cowboy, 1969. British director John Schlesinger was seeing any young actors who had played cowpokes - Ford, Michael Sarrazin, Don Stroud from Journey To Shiloh, 1968. Sarrazin won and was Joe Buck until scenarist Waldo Salt's actress daughter, Jennifer, told everyone to watch her boyfriend in a TV play.\nMark Frechette, Zabriskie Point, 1970. As always, casting man Fred Roos was in Harrison's corner and thought him born for the role, on-the-money perfect for the Italian maestro Michelangelo Antonioni's hero - disillusioned with life's mindless materialism. Ford's strongest qualities? \"His great sense of masculinity... dangerous intensity... combined with this droll sense of humour... and an air of confidence. I was so bitterly disappointed when I couldn't convince Michelangelo.\" So was Ford, but Fred found him a walk-on scene to earn some much needed money. And never gave up on him.\nRob Reiner, All In The Family, TV, 1971-1979. Harrison refused to play Mike Stivic because of his bigot father-in-law, Archie Bunker. The original son-in-law in the BBC series (Till Death Do Us Part, 1965-1975) was Anthony Booth, future father-in-law of 1997-2007 British Prime Minister Tony Blair.\nFrederic Forrest, The Conversation, 1974. Fred Roos was still pushing, but director Francis Coppola preferred one of his rep company - giving Ford the small role of... Young Man. Having seen a garish green suit on sale for $900, Ford immediately turned him into Young Gay Man and his passion for his notion soon had Coppola agreeing to buy the suit for the film.\nLee Majors, The Six Million Dollar Man, TV, 1977. Bored with Steve Austin, even changing identity with a moustache, Majors was playing hard to get in the spring of \u201977 and the producers looked at possible replacements. Ford, they said, was not suitable for an action hero...!\nTom Skeritt, Alien, 1978. Finally a star, Ford was busy enough with in the Star Wars franchise (he was still Han Solo-ing in 2015). He passed on the Nostromo skipper, Dallas, in Ridley Scott\u2019s perfect film.\nJack Nicholson, The Shining, 1979.\nJudging them solely on Taxi Driver and Mork & Mindy, Stanley Kubrick said Robert De Niro was not psychotic enough while Robin Williams was too much so! Although Kubrick\u2019s only choice was Nicholson, Warner Bros also suggested Ford, Christopher Reeve. Plus Martin Sheen (who\u2019d already made it\u2026 as Apocalypse Now!). (He later made Stephen King\u2019s Dead Zone in 1983). Or even the funny Chevy Chase and Leslie Nielsen (what were they smoking?) Author King said \u201cnormal looking\u201d Michael Moriarty or Jon Voight going mad would work better than Jack. Didn\u2019t matter who was Jack Torrance as Kubrick, usually so blissfully right about everything, had clearly lost it. He insisted on up to 70 takes for some scenes (three days and 60 doors for \u201cHere\u2019s Johnny!\u201d), reducing Shelley Duvall and grown men, like Scatman Crothers at 69, to tears. \u201cJust what is it that you want, Mr Kubrick?\u201d He didn\u2019t know. He was, quite suddenly, a director without direction. Result: a major disappointment. Not only for Stephen King but the rest of us. Harry Dean Stanton escaped being Lloyd, the bartender. By making a real horror film. Alien.\nRichard Gere, American Gigolo, 1979. Ford, Mel Gibson, even Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone - not forgetting Chevy Chase!!! - were the most unlikely choices for the titular Julian Kaye, He was given to Gere, taken over by John Travolta, who then walked and Gere jumped back in. For a character he didn\u2019t know very well. he never owned a suit, spoke languages or sold his body to rich women. Plus\u2026 \u201cThere\u2019s a kind a gay thing that's flirting through it and I didn\u2019t know the gay community at all. I wanted to immerse myself in all of that. . So I just dove in.\u201d\nKurt Russell, The Thing, 1981. \u201cThe ultimate in alien terror.\u201d Bah! Not even close. Which explains why Ford, Jeff Bridges, Clint Eastwood, Kevin Kline, Nick Nolte passed on John Carpenter\u2019s unwanted re-hash of the (so-so) 1950 original produced (some say, directed) by Howard Hawks. Fred Ward fought for the lead. Russell won it - third of his five Carpenter movies. Could have been worse, Universal had wanted Tobe Hooper to direct.\nAlan Arkin, The Last Unicorn, 1982. Also considered as the voice of magician, Schmendrick, was his Star Wars cohort Mark Hamill, who later made a career of voicing numerous TV and video-game characters. Also seen - or heard - Dustin Hoffman.\nMichael Ontkean, Making Love, 1982. Wary of the subject matter: a husband having his gay side awakened by Harry Hamlin.\nJack Nicholson, Terms of Endearment, 1983. And Jack collected his second Oscar.\nChuck Norris, Code of Silence, 1984. When Clint Eastwood passed on what was first called Dirty Harry IV: Code of Silence, the next rewrite of George LaFountaine\u2019s 1976 French book, Le P\u00e9tard recalcitrant, was offered to Jeff Bridges Charles Bronson, Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson, Gene Hackman, Tommy Lee Jones, Kris Kristofferson, Nick Nolte, Kurt Russell and Jon Voight. Coming so soon after Burt Reynolds\u2019 Dirty Harryish Sharkey\u2019s Machine, 1981, this one was put down as Dirty Chuckie.\nAl Pacino, Revolution, 1986. \"I want to be surprised when I open a script.\" Producer Irwin Winkler said it had great potential: \"I'd like to do it again.\" Masochist!\nMel Gibson, Lethal Weapon, 1986. In all, 39 possibilities for the off-kilter, \u2019Nam vet cop Martin Riggs - not as mentally-deranged as in early drafts (he used a rocket launcher on one guy!) Some ideas were inevitable: Alec Baldwin, Michael Biehn (shooting Aliens), Jeff Bridges, Michael Douglas, Harrison Ford, Richard Gere, Al Pacino, Sean Penn, William Petersen, Dennis Quaid, Christopher Reeve, Kurt Russell, Charlie Sheen, Sylvester Stallone, John Travolta, Bruce Willis. Some were inspired: Bryan Brown, Nicolas Cage, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum (he inherited Gibson\u2019s role in The Fly), William Hurt (too dark for Warner Bros), Michael Keaton, Michael Madsen, Liam Neeson, Eric Roberts. Some were insipid: Jim Belushi, Pierce Brosnan, Kevin Costner, Kevin Kline, Stephen Lang, Michael Nouri (he joined another cop duo in The Hidden), Patrick Swayze. Plus TV cops Don Johnson, Tom Selleck\u2026 three foreign LA cops: Austrian Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dutch Rutger Hauer and French Christophe(r) Lambert. And the inevitable (Aussie) outsider Richard Norton.\nKevin Costner, The Untouchables, 1987. Casting is never copycat director Brian De Palma's strongest suit. He was playing safe, talking to Ford or Mel Gibson, when pals George Lucas and Steven Spielberg were telling him: Costner, Costner, Costner!\nKevin Kline, Cry Freedom, 1987. Turned down - quite rightly! - the white journalist who Brit director Richard Attenborough made the hero of the black Steve Biko story!\nTom Hanks, Big,1987. Steven Spielberg\u2019s sister, Anne, wrote the script, so it was perhaps obvious that \u201cfor two months I thought of Harrison\u2026\u201d He declined. Politely. Wisely. Ford is not Tom Hanks. And vice-versa.\nBruce Willis, Die Hard, 1987. There were 15 possible John McClanes\u2026 From top TV heroes Richard Dean Anderson and Don Johnson to A-listers: Ford, Tom Berenger, Charles Bronson, Robert De Niro, Clint Eastwood, Richard Gere, Mel Gibson, Michael Madsen, Nick Nolte, Al Pacino, Burt Reynolds, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone. And Frank Sinatra had to be contractually offered the hero. In his 1980 move debut, The First Deadly Sin, Willis is seen leaving a bar as Sinatra walks in. So it flows.\nBob Hoskins, Who Framed Roger Rabbit? 1987. Surprisingly, the murder mystery where the chief suspect is a cartoon character was based on the never made Cloverleaf, Robert Towne\u2019s third Jake Gittes script. For Chinatown, read Toontown. So who should be Gittes, er, shamus Eddie Valiant? Well, why not Gittes, himself - aka Jack Nicholson? So who should be Gittes, er, shamus Eddie Valiant. Well, why not Gittes, himself - Jack Nicholson? No, producer Steven Spielberg could see no further than Harrison Ford. Too expensive! OK, Ed Harris, Robert Redford, Sylvester Stallone? Director Robert Zemeckis also considered Charles Grodin, Aussie comic Don Lane, Eddie Murphy (soon a toon in the Shrek movies), Joe Pantliano - and auditioned voice artist Peter Renaday. And they could never contact the hideaway Bill Murray\u2026 When he read that in a paper, Murray screamed out loud- he would have loved being Valiant. Not that much fun, reported Hoskins. \u201cI had to hallucinate to do it,\u201d he told Danish TV. After working with green screens for six months, 16 hours a day, he lost control. \u201cI had weasels and rabbits popping out of the wall at me.\u201d\nRoddy Piper, They Live, 1987. The pitch was fine: Drifter finds some sunglasses that let him to see that aliens have taken over the Earth. And, apparently, the film. Lousy! Which is probably why 18 other big guns, said nadato being Nada: Ford, Alec Baldwin, Michael Biehn, Jeff Bridges, Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson, Tommy Lee Jones, Michael Keaton, Christophe(r) Lambert, Dolph Lundgren, Bill Paxton, Ron Perlman, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Patrick Swayze, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis (plus three mere pistols: Brian Bosworth, Bruce Campbell, Stephen Lang). And the less said about Russell\u2019s wrestler replacement, the better.\u201cJust John Carpenter as usual,\u201d said the Washington Post, \u201ctrying to dig deep with a toy shovel.\u201d\nMel Gibson, Tequila Sunrise, 1988. Chinatown scenarist Robert Towne was working on the Frantic script with the star - when Ford chanced upon the writer\u2019s nearly completed scenario about two LA buddies on either side of the law. Ford wanted in. He later backed off due to \u201cpersonal conflicts with the role.\u201d Not interested in playing a dealer - repenti, or not. Not that he was anti-marijuana. Towne and producer Thom Mount simply flew down-under and got Gibson aboard.\nTim Robbins, ErikThe Viking, 1988. There was a flurry of names run up various flagpoles for Erik, from Nicolas Cage and Tom Hulce to... wait for it... Michael Palin and Harrison Ford!!!\nDwight Schulz, The Shadow Makers (aka Fat Man and Lttle Boy), 1989. Terrible title(s)\u2026 Paul Newman was Major General Leslie Groves, head of the construcion of then first (titular) Atom bombs at Los Alamos. UK director Roland Joffe wanted Schultz as the project\u2019s scientific chief, Robert Oppenheimer - while the suits craved another big shot like Ford or Redford. \u201cJoffe went to the wall for me,\u201c said Shultz. \u201cThe studio wanted anyhone but me.\u201c \"Harrison told me the reason he didn't do it,\" says Bonnie Bedelia, \"was because after reading the script three times, he realised I had the best role. I was a scientist but you wouldn't know it - 95% of what I played was cut out.\"\nJack Nicholson, The Two Jakes, 1989.\nRobert Mitchum was the matrix for drifter Harry Madox - and first choice in 1962. Nearly 30 years later, it was to be Mickey Rourke and Debra Winger. Or Ford, Kevin Costner, Richard Gere, Dennis Quaid, Tom Selleck, Sam Shepard, Patrick Swayze opposite Anne Archer, Jodie Foster, Melanie Griffith, Theresa Russell, Uma Thurman and ultimately, Virginia Madsen. Not necessarily for this movie\u2026 Replacing UK director Mike Figgis, Dennis Hopper totally changed the entire gig! In a 2014 AV Club interview, Johnson explained how three days before shooting began Dennis \u201ccalled a meeting. \u2018OK, we\u2019re not making that script. We\u2019re making this one.\u2019And he passed a script around the table that had been written for Robert Mitchum in the \u201960s... based on a book called Hell Hath No Fury\u2026 Wow! The Figgis script was really slick and cool, and it was a heist movie. But this was real noir. The guy was an amoral drifter, and it was all about how women were going to take him down\u2026 And that was the movie that we ended up making.\u201d Hopper\u2019s Last Tango In Texas was hailed by Chicago critic Roger Ebert as \u201ca superior work in an old tradition.\u201d He wuz right!\nAlec Baldwin, The Hunt For The Red October, 1989. Passed on the first film of the Thomas Clancy books about CIA's Jack Ryan. \"Always my first choice from the moment I read the book,\" said producer Mace Neufeld. \"But he wanted to play the Russian submarine commander.\" \"It was,\" said Ford, \"the better part.\" By 1992, it was a case of Jack's Back and Ford's got him as he headlined the next two Ryan thrillers.\nRichard Gere, Internal Affairs, 1989. \u2019Tis the season for cops\u2026 wioth three offers\u2026UK director Mike Figgis said Paramount wanted Mel Gibson or Kurt Russell (big hits in \u201988\u2019s Tequila Sunrise) as the badass cop-cum-hit man. \u201cIf we\u2019d hired a movie star to play Peck,\u201d noted producer Frank Mancuso Jr, \u201cwe might not have been able to so successfully explore the darkness of the character.\u201d Some 19 other stars - Ford, Alec Baldwin, Tom Berenger, Jeff Bridges, Pierce Brosnan, Kevin Costner, Robert De Niro, Michael Douglas, Ed Harris, William Hurt, Don Johnson, Tommy Lee Jones, Michael Keaton, Nick Nolte, Al Pacino, Christopher Reeve, Kurt Russell, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, John Travolta - and four outsiders Richard Dean Anderson, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Ron Silver - all passed Peck to Gere for a double whammy comeback with Pretty Woman. \u201cI\u2019ve never been away,\u201d snapped Gere. Oh, but he had. Almost to Palookaville.\nKurt Russell, Tango and Cash, 1989. Next\u2026 ? Sylvester Stallone was Raymond Tango \u2013 without question. But who would he accept as his equally frame cop pardner, Gabriel Cash? After Patrick Swayze ran (to solo billing in Road House), the list was long\u2026 Ford, Michael Biehn, Pierce Brosnan, Kevin Costner, Richard Gere, Mel Gibson, Don Johnson, Michael Keaton, Ray Liotta, Liam Neeson, Michael Nouri, Gary Oldman, Robert Patrick, Bill Paxton, Ron Perlman, Dennis Quaid, Gary Sinise, Bruce Willis and James Woods. It took 24 years, but Ford finally worked with Stallone on Expendables 3, 2013.\nPatrick Swayze, Next of Kin, 1989. Finally\u2026 country bumpkins v the Mafia. Again. For the hero of his respun Raw Deal, 1985, UK director John Irvin went from The Obvious Aces: Kevin Costner, Tom Cruise, Clint Eastwood, Harrison Ford, Richard Gere, Mel Gibson, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis\u2026 to the Tango and Cash possibles: Michael Biehn, Jeff Bridges, Pierce Brosnan, Kurt Rusell\u2026 plus The Also-Rans: Tommy Lee Jones, Kris Kristofferson, Dennis Quaid. And even French Christopher Lambert, Swedish Dolph Lundgren and Belgian Jean Claude Van Damme\u2026 for a Chicago cop!\nRichard Dreyfuss, Always, 1990. Steven Spielberg invariably thinks of Ford first. Harrison's reasons for rejecting offers are: \"I didn't know how to do it, or it was too close to something I'd already done or I didn't like the idea.\" In this case, Spencer Tracy had already done it in 1943. And anyway, Spielberg, flubbed it.\nWarren Beatty, Dick Tracy, 1990. Project went through five writers, two leading men, three directors: Martin Scorsese, Walter Hill, Richard Benjamin before Beatty took it on. All of it.\nHarvey Keitel, The Two Jakes, 1990. \"I'd rather find the thing that's written with somebody else in mind and be able to add layers to that.\"\nJames Caan, Misery, 1990. \"The idea of playing a victim didn't appeal to a lot of people,\" said director Rob Reiner explaining such refusniks as Ford, Warren Beatty, Jeff Daniels, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert De Niro, Michael Douglas, Gene Hackman, Ed Harris, John Heard, Dustin Hoffman, William Hurt, Robert Klein, Kevin Kline, Ed O\u2019Neill, Al Pacino, Robert Redford, John Ritter, Denzel Washington. Why did Caan agree? \"I think he wanted the work.\"\nPatrick Swayze, Ghost, 1990. Me a ghost? Shut the door as you get outa here.\nNick Nolte, Cape Fear, 1991. Might have been interested if Steven Spielberg had stayed aboard. Neither the final director Martin Scorsese - nor phone calls from Robert De Niro - could persuade him. Harrison always understands who has the better role.\nNick Nolte, Cape Fear, 1991. After Spielberg passed the Amblin project to him, Martin Scorsese tried to win over Ford (then, Robert Redford) to play the (this time, unsantised) lawyer Sam Bowden. Scorsese even asked Robert De Niro to call Ford to talk him into co-starring. You talkin\u2019 to me!\nAl Pacino, Scent of a Woman, 1991. First Jack Nicholson, then Pacino, Ford, Dustin Hoffman, even Joe Pesci (sheer desperation time!) rejected the blind Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade. Pacino\u2019s agent talked him back into it. Result: his much delayed Oscar.\nTom Berenger, Sliver, 1993 \"If you can't do it, you can't do it. No sense regretting it.\" There would have been much regret about this turkey!\nSam Shepard, The Pelican Brief, 1993. \"Julia Roberts asked me to play her boyfriend - but the timing was not right.\"\nMorgan Freeman, The Shawshank Redemption, 1993. Up for Stephen King\u2019s veteran convict Ellis Boyd \u2018Red\u2019 Redding: Ford, Sidney Poitier. Plus Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman and Robert Redford who had already done jail time in Escape From Alcatraz, 1978, Cool Hand Luke, 1967, and Brubaker, 1979, respectively. Clint and Newman won. Redford lost. Eastwood and Freeman co-starred in both of Eastwood's Best Picture Oscar-winners, Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby.\nLiam Neeson, Schlindler's List, 1993. Steven Spielberg spent ten years growing up before makingthe Holocaust film and not just because he couldn\u2019t find his Oskar Schindler, the Nazi businessman who saved the lives of more than 1,100 Jews. \"I was looking for the actual guy, as close to the actual man as I could find.\" Ford was worried by his movie star baggage. Other possibilities: Warren Beatty, Kevin Costner, Robert Duvall, Swiss Bruno Ganz, Mel Gibson, Swedish Stellan Skarsg\u00e5rd, AustralianJack Thompson\u2026 and his2011 Lincoln, Daniel Day-Lewis. Ford had the more joyful job ofpresenting Spielberg with his first Best Film and Director Oscars (after four previous nominations) on March 21, 1994.\nHarvey Keitel, Imaginary Crimes, 1994. Over eleven years, Ford, Robert Duvall, and Dustin Hoffman had beenup for the hustler-father of two young girls - based on Sheila Ballantyne\u2019s autobiography.\nTim Allen, The Santa Clause, 1994. Written for Bill Murray (\u201cnot for me\u201d), Scott Calvin aka Santa was sent to Chevy Chase (too busy). Next? Jeff Bridges, Michael Keaton, even the mighty Ford, Mel Gibson and Tom Hanks before TV comic Tim Allen won his film debut. Allen had a record (28 months for attempted dealing) but Disney reluctantly broke its no-ex-cons policy. He\u2019d been punished - and now more so. Stifling in his fat suit and facial prosthetics during the Summer shoot, he needed cooling-off breaks. They didn\u2019t prevent a neck rash from the Santa suit. Come the Toy Story seres, he could voice Buzz Lightyear in his pjs.\nDennis Quaid, Dragonheart, 1995. A hard day's knight - opposite a computerised dragon voiced by Indy's dad, Sean Connery! Mel Gibson, Liam Neeson Patrick Swayze, Robin Williams were also on the short-list for Bowen.\nDustin Hoffman, Outbreak, 1995. Thirteen year before, Harrison's Blade Runner had been aimed at Hoffman. Ford won - twice!\nRobin Williams, Jumanji, 1995. Two kids find a jungle board game with magic powers unleashing grotesque animalia and some poor sap trapped inside the game since playing it as a tot. Williams lapped it up after Ford, Dan Aykroyd, Sean Connery, Richard Dreyfuss, Rupert Everett, Tom Hanks, Michael Keaton, Kevin Kline, Bill Paxton, Kurt Russell, Arnold Schwarzenegger had all fled the incoherent script. Jumanji, incidentally, is Zulu for \u201cmany effects.\u201d And how.\nJeff Bridges, The Mirror Has Two Faces, 1996. With La Barb getting $20m and a cut of the action, Ford would have doubled the budget by co-starring with Barbra Streisand.\nSteven Seagal, Fire Down Below, 1996. Jeb Stuart's script was snapped up by Batman's dynamicduo (producers Peter Guber, Jon Peters) for Harrison or Mel Gibson... Jinxed title. Despite Rita Hayworth, Robert Mitchum, Jack Lemmon, a 1957 film with the same name also deep-sixed.\nPaul McGann, Doctor Who (The Movie), TV, 1996.\nNick Nolte, Nightwatch, 1997. Re-treading his own 1994 Danish thriller in America, the original's director, Ole Bernedal, wanted Harrison for Inspector Thomas Albert Cray.\nTom Sizemore, The Relic, 1997. Another cop, another pass. So, no Lieutenant Vincent D\u2019Agosta for director Peter Hyams.\nTreat Williams, Deep Rising, 1998. Soon as Ford passed as the skipper of a cruise liner staffed by reprobates, the budget was slashed. As if money could float this lame-brained pot-pourri of recent grisleys\u2026 Alien Resurrection, Anaconda, Hard Rain, Phantom, Toy Story. No, I\u2019m joking about Toy Story. I think.\nJames Caan, Poodle Springs, TV, 1998. The final, unfinished Raymond Chandler/Philip Marlowe book came Ford's way after being first aimed at Robert Redford. It ended as a below-par HBO movie.\nTom Hanks, Saving Private Ryan, 1998. For once, Spielberg needed a name to support/encourage all the necessarily young actors. He thought Ford (naturally) plus Mel Gibson, before joining together for the first time with his friend, Hanks - in a grim WWII drama that led to more of the same in their co-produced HBO masterpiece, Band of Brothers, TV, 2001.\nTom Cruise Eyes Wide Shut, 1998. A better idea for Bill Hartford. Not that Ford could have saved the old-fashioned mess that proved to be Stanley Kubrick\u2019s final film. And he thought, his greatest. Didn\u2019t he ever see the 15 others? (Truth is, it sucked due to Cruise and the missus, not an ounce of erotica between them). Also up for Hartford: Johnny Depp and Steve Martin.\nLance Henriksen, Tarzan, 1998. Ford was short-listed for the Disney toon. But Henriksen was chosen by the suits because only his voice - \u201cdeep and gruff\u201d - would better suit \u201cthe immense size of Kerchak.\u201d Cheaper, too.\nRichard Gere, Runaway Bride, 1999. Over ten years, most A listers, male and female, had been announced for it. Re-uniting Gere and Julia Roberts was a pretty good idea. Except on-screen.\nGeorge Clooney, The Perfect Storm, 2000. Inevitably, Harrison was first choice of his Air Force Onemaker, German director Wolfgang Petersen. Clooney and Mel Gibson were also on the manifest for the perfect skipper - Captain Billy Tyne - in the reconstructionn of the fishing ship, Andrea Gail, caught in \"the middle of the monster\" when three great storm systems collided in the Atlantic in 1991.\nMark Wahlberg, Planet of the Apes, 2000. Fox chased A-Listers Ford, Kevin Costner and Patrick Swayze for the hero Captain Leo Davidson in Tim Burton\u2019s \u201cre-imagining\u201d of the Pierre Boulle book - or, at least, the 1967 Fox film version when Charlton Heston\u2019s hero was called George Taylor. A surprise choice at the helm, Burton said he\u2019d rather jump out a window than make any sequel.\nMichael Douglas, Traffic, 2000. Steven Soderbergh had \"great interactions\" with Harrison. \"He had really good ideas, all of which we incorporated and all of which worked. He decided it wasn't what he wanted to do right then, but the time he put into it was invaluable to me.\" Loving Ford\u2019s changes, Douglas returned to the Soderbergh deal... bringing his pregnant wife with him, Catherine Zeta-Jones. Adds Soderbergh: \"These things work out of the way they should.\"\nRussell Crowe, Proof of Life, 2000. When Ford - one of his wife Helen Mirren\u2019s previous co-stars - dropped out, Taylor Hackford took the advice of fellow directors Michael Mann and Ridley Scott and went for Crowe. \u201cAll I needed was to see him in action in Gladiator and Inside Man. In one movie, he\u2019s this hulking Roman soldier and, in the other, a brilliantly intelligent boffin. Perfect. But not easy.\u201d\nMel Gibson, The Patriot, 2000. Too violent, too damned simple: \u201cThe Revolutionary War boiled down to one man seeking revenge.\u201d\nKurt Russell, Vanilla Sky, 2001. Scenarist-director Cameron Crowe also asked Alec Baldwin, Michael Keaton. But, hey, who wants to be second banana to Tom Cruise!\nAl Pacino, Insomnia, 2001. Ford missed that rarity: a re-make improving upon the (Norwegian) original. And so, Pacino became burnt out cop, looking (said Chicago critic Roger Ebert) \u201clike a man who has lost all hope.\u201d\nBen Affleck, The Sum of All Fears, 2002.\nJack Ryan Junior! \"They produced a script and... I didn't care for it . So they went to somebody else.\" Affleck was 28. \"[Author and exec-producer] Tom Clancy was always complaining about how old I was, so I think at least he'll be gratified.\" Not with the box-office take that brought a sudden end to the Ryan franchise.\nRay Liotta, Narc, 2002. Quite keen on this cop, Henry Oaks - for awhile. Liotta gained 25 lbs and so impressed Tom Cruise, he became exec producer to help win a better release for the result.\nKevin Costner, Dragonfly, 2002. Another grieving doctor-widower? No thanks, he was taking a full year off movies to enjoy his new lady, Calista Flockhart, and her adopted son, Liam.\nEdward James Olmos, Battlestar Galactica, TV, 2004-2009. Harrison Ford, Ed Harris, Sam Shepard were the somewhat lofty goals for the 74 hours of Admiral William Adama. Somewhat early to seduce Ford into a series! Olmos (five years younger) was in by the fourth page of the scenario.\nVal Kilmer, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, 2005. Warners offered a better budget if Ford could be enticed. He could not. OK, then, why not Benicio Del Toro as the actor wannabe taking private dick lessons from Hugh Grant\u2019s openly gay \u2019tec. (He\u2019s even called Gay). No, for his directing debut, scripter Shane Blackn was content with Downey and Val Kilmer in a comedy-noir spin on his cop buddy epics, Lethal Weapon and The Last Boy Scout.\nDavid Morrissey, Basic Instinct 2, 2005 .Even recalling him sexy when Presumed Innocent, 1990,this was a no-way casting tale from columnist Liz Smith - he\u2019d refused the first chapter, after all. \u201cI let myself down,\u201d said Morrissey. \u201cWhen it came out\u2026 I didn\u2019t want to leave the house.It was a very bruising experience\u2026 I\u2019d do it againtomorrow. But I\u2019d do it differently because I\u2019d have different tools in my armoury.\u201d\nViggo Mortensen, A History of Violence, 2005. Canadian director David Cronenberg did not seem to know his main character that well. He was turned down by Harrison, aged 63 and Thomas Jane, 36. Mortensen was 47.\nGeorge Clooney, Syriana, 2005. A simple refusal. A major regret. Of course it was. George won a support Oscar (with first, above-title billing?). He brought a political resonance to the Mid East drama that Ford could never have matched.\nJohnny Depp, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, 2006. One of Hollywood\u2019s most bizarre ideas. During 25 years in Development Hell, the titular casting also included Russell Crowe, Robert De Niro, Michael Douglas, Richard Dreyfuss, Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman, William Hurt, Kevin Kline, Steve Martin, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino. Tim Curry was the sole Brit considered and the most lunatic notions were... Ford, Warren Beatty and Robert Redford!\nMark Wahlberg, Shooter, 2006. According to William Goldman, the film\u2019s script doctor, Ford, Eastwood, Redford refused the betrayed hero tricked into being another Lee Harvey Oswald. So director Antoine Fuqua went younger, changing Bob Lee Swagger\u2019s betrayal from 70s\u2019 Vietnam to 90s\u2019 Ethiopia. Keanu Reeves, was the first choice.\nJames Cromwell, W, 2008. Cromwell revealed - and he should know \u2013 how autuer Oliver Stone first wanted Ford or Warren Beatty to play W\u2019s father, the 41st US president, George HW Bush. Cromwell has now managed to play a president\u2019s father, two fictional POTUSes and another real one - the 36th Prez, LBJ, Lyndon Baines Johnson - the British Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s husband, Pope Pius XII, William Randolph Hearst and\u2026 and the farmer owning Babe, the talking pig who wanted to be a sheepdog. Howzat for a CV?!\nAlex O\u2019Loughlin, Hawaii Five-0, TV, 2010-2016 Five years earlier there had been a lot of chat about a Five-0 movie - headlined by Ford, Michael Douglas or Mel Gibson. However, when the island cop Steve McGarrett was rebooted, it was back on the tube.\nHugh Jackman, Les Miserables, 2011. Oh, Hollywood\u2026 Since the musical\u2019s 1985 London opening, suggestions for Jean Valjean went from the logical - Robert De Niro, Richard Dreyfuss, Gene Hackman, William Hurt, Kevin Kline - to the preposterous: Ford, Michael Douglas, Mel Gibson, Tom Hanks, Robert Redford, Christopher Walken. Plus close pals, rarely rivals, Beatty and Jack Nicholson. However, Tom Cruise, Dustin Hoffman and Al Pacino were far too short for the hefty hero who, in a signature scene, has to carry Cosette\u2019s lover, away from the battle of the barricades. Put it another way, Hollywood\u2019s last Valjean had been Liam Neeson - 6ft. 4in.\nLiam Neeson, A Walk Among The Tombstones, 2013. One of the great unmade Hollywood scripts nearly happened in 2002 with Joe Carnahan helming Ford as Lawrence Block's ex-cop turned (unlicensed) private dick Matthew Scudder. Finally, scripter Scott Frank decided to direct Neeson. Perfect! (Jeff Bridges had been the first Scudder in 8 Million Ways Toe Die, 1985).\nGeorge Clooney, Gravity, 2013. Ford had done science fiction, thank you\u2026 When Robert Downey Jr ejected from the science fiction marvel (\u201ctechnology and Robert are incompatible,\u201d explained Alfonso Cuaron), the Mexican auteur talked \u201cwith a bunch of people\u201d for astronaut Matt Kowalski. Ford, Kevin Costner, Daniel Craig, Russell Crowe, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks (he loves astronauts, right?), John Travolta, Denzel Washington and Bruce Willis. Most backed off, annoyed that the woman astronaut, Sandra Bullock, had most of the film entirely to herself. \u201cMore like 2001 than an action film,\u201d said a delighted Clooney.\nNicolas Cage, Dying of the Light, 2014. Taxi Driverscenarist Paul Schrader wrote his script on spec. Danish director Nicolas Winding Refn Refn planned it for Ford and Channing Tatum. Except Ford was worried by the bleak ending. Refn stayed on as exec producer to allow Schrader make his onw movie \u2013 \u201ctaken away from me, re-edited, scored and mixed without my input.\u201d\nTom Hanks, Sully, 2016. \u201cThis goes back to Harrison at a dinner at the White House,\u201d explained producer Frank Marshall. \u201cThere were all of these aviation heroes\u2026 one of them was Sully [Chesley Sullenberger, who famously landed his disabled US Airways Airbus A320 on New York\u2019s Hudson River on January 15, 2009]. \u2018I wrote a book. What do I do with it? Is it a movie?\u2019 And Harrison said: \u2018I don't know, but here, call my friend Frank.\u2019 That's how this all started. But we didn't know where the conflict was\u2026 \u2018Did anything else happen along the way?\u2019 And he started telling this story about a long, protracted series of hearings, and how\u2026 he kind of went into post-traumatic stress when everybody was saying: \u2018You're a hero.\u2019 And we thought: Whoa, there's something we could develop.\u201d Naturally, Marshall asked Ford, a flyer, himself, to play Sully, but he just wanted to give his pal a great yarn. \u2018 Marshall shopped the project to every studio and cable network over six ysars. They all passed. Enter: director Clint Eastwood. \u201cWhen Clint said he wanted to do it [laugh], it took about two weeks!\u201d",

        "title": "Giorgio Agamben: Stasis",
        "raw_content": "At a time when the world seems to be rejecting the universalist neo-liberal logic of governance to embrace various modes of cultural, political, socio-economical, and juridical nationalisms, an engagement with Giorgio Agamben\u2019s concept of stasis becomes all the more urgent. If there is indeed one message to be taken from Agamben\u2019s study of the modern variant of stasis, it is that such an entity as a territorially-framed, culturally-bounded, and ontologically self-defining \u2018people\u2019 has never been posited and is politically insignificant.[1] Current aspirations to return to idealised forms of nationalisms, then, might not only be impossible to realise; more fundamentally, they might be voided of historical content and legitimation.\nBut let us proceed in order. The term stasis derives from the ancient Greek verb istamaior istemi, meaning either to be standing up or to be waiting.[2] As such, it designates a moment of inoperativity, or equilibrium, out of which a new beginning arises. In the brief but highly valuable Stasis: Civil War as a Political Paradigm (hereafter Stasis), published in English in 2015 by both Stanford University Press and Edinburgh University Press, Agamben delineates what role this concept plays in his political philosophy. Importantly, though, drawing from its etymology as well as from the practice of the Greek tragedy, Agamben only refers to the one of meanings of the term \u2013 i.e. stasis as \u2018the act of rising, of standing firmly upright\u2019.[3]\nBased on two seminars delivered by Agamben at Princeton University in 2001, Stasisis a philosophical-archaeological study of the ways in which civil war was conceived and operationalised in Ancient Greece and at the outset of modernity in the political philosophy of Thomas Hobbes. Agamben\u2019s intention with this work is to show that the study of these two apparently unrelated singularities proves civil war to be the political paradigm of Western biopolitics.\nThis alone would confirm the importance that the concept of stasis plays in Agamben\u2019s philosophy. The latter is indeed aimed at reaching a communitarian politics beyond biopolitics through the formation of an inoperative \u2018form-of-life\u2019 capable of destituing the sovereign\u2019s prerogatives over the politicisation of (bare) life (see below). In addition, however, one could also mention that Stasis has been recently reproduced as the third chapter of the complete Homo Sacer collection (Omnibus in English, published by Stanford University Press). Importantly, in the Italian edition, called Edizione Integrale and published by Quodlibet, the Omnibus also features a lengthy note on the concept of war whose purpose, Agamben tells us, is to \u2018unmask the Schmittian dispositif of friend and foe.\u2019[4] The fact that Agamben himself declares that this very note is one of the reasons why the Italian edition of the Omnibusis \u2018superior\u2019[5] to the French and English ones; and that Stasis also features a meaningful critique of Schmitt\u2019s interpretation of Hobbes,[6] are both testament to the significance that the concept of stasis has in Agamben\u2019s thought and our comprehension of it.\nStasis and Kinesis\nA further reason for exploring Agamben\u2019s take on stasis is the role he assigns to its very opposite, kinesis, to frame his coming politics. Indeed, the way stasis operates is directly related to the working logic of one of Agamben\u2019s most discussed concepts, the sovereign\u2019s state of exception. From this, it follows that stasis is a dispositif through which the Western biopolitical machine includes (bare) life into politics through its exclusion.\nAs such, and as its ambivalent etymological meaning reveals, stasis stands in clear opposition (but is also structurally related to) the concept of kinesis, or movement, which as Agamben writes in Opus Dei in a passage outlining the answer he gave to a question Martin Heidegger had asked during the seminar of Le Thor in 1966, forms the basis of the Aristotelian \u2018theory of potential and habit.\u2019[7] This too is of pivotal importance for grasping the core of Agamben\u2019s political project. Indeed, several times throughout his scholarship, but most notably in Il Fuoco e il Racconto and Archeologia dell\u2019Opera d\u2019Arte,[8] Agamben argues that the destitution of Western biopolitics might only come through the overcoming of Aristotle\u2019s (and thus, Western thinking\u2019s) belief that humankind cannot be argos (i.e. inoperative; or without any assigned task, ergos). The Pauline, Fransciscan-oriented[9] community founded on our ethical profanation as \u2018habitual-use-of-bodies\u2019 (or Pulcinella-like \u2018form-of-life\u2019[10]) that Agamben urges us to think for the salvation of humanity requires an inoperative act of simultaneous potentiality and actuality (or destituent potential[11]) capable of deactivating the Aristotelian choice between the two.\nA Stasiology?\nBefore going any further, it should also be noted that Agamben specifies from the very beginning of his essay that he does not intend to develop a \u2018theory of civil war,\u2019 or stasiology.[12] Yet this statement should be treated cautiously, as Agamben seems in fact to be taking the first step toward the development of a notionistic, and thus systematic, study of stasis in the West. This emerges from the preliminary reflections of the first chapter, as well as from the terminology that the Italian publisher Bollati Boringhieri has used to present Agamben\u2019s work. Further, the combination of the very terminology used in the essay (i.e. stasis as a paradigm) with Agamben\u2019s categorisation of paradigms as (analogical) forms of knowledge in Signatura Rerum,[13] provides further evidence that his reflections on the subject might qualify as building blocks of a broader political-philosophical theory of civil war (i.e. approaching stasis through paradigmatic, exemplary thinking allows the interpreter to understand and operationalise its nature and working logic). Agamben\u2019s argument regarding the mutation, after classical Greece, of the \u2018function, situation and form of civil war\u2019 (see below) seems to confirm the accuracy of this reconstruction.\nStasis in Ancient Greece\u2026\nIn the first part of his essay, Agamben draws on what he had expounded in both Homo Sacerand Means Without End14] about the Greeks\u2019 distinction between zo\u0113, which \u2018expressed the simple fact of living common to all living beings,\u2019 and bios, which \u2018indicated the form or way of living proper to an individual or a group.\u2019[15] At first glance, this schism appears to indicate that the managerial paradigm of the house (oikonomia) and the dominium of the political (government) were kept apart in the polis. Not coincidentally, the two spheres will overlap in a zone of indistinction in modern times through the formation of political economy as a specific science, i.e. as a combination of institutional and analytical economics on the one hand, and sociopolitical thought on the other. Thus, Agamben further notes that to Plato and Aristotle, \u2018to speak of a zo\u0113 politik\u0113 of the citizens . . . would have made no sense.\u2019[16] However, in Stasis, Agamben shows that in classical Greece civil war served to reveal the oikos, that is, to confer on it a political character. Moving beyond Nicole Loraux\u2019s view,[17] Agamben writes that rather than \u2018hav[ing] its place in the household,\u2019[18] stasis \u2018constitute[d] a threshold of indifference between the oikosand the polis, between blood kingship and citizenship.\u2019[19] The act of civil war represented then a zone interaction, or indication, between the family and the city, or (unpolitical) private existence and (political) public presentification.More specifically, in Ancient Greece\ncivil war functions as a threshold in which family relationships are repoliticised: when it is instead the tension toward the polisthat prevails and the family bond appears to weaken, then the stasisintervenes to recodify the family relationship in political terms.[20]\nHowever, this sort of balanced tension, or delicate equilibrium, between the managerial and political paradigms through which the family and the city were respectively administered and governed did not last very long. After classical Greece, Agamben specifies,there has emerged in the West \u2018the tendency to depoliticise the city by transforming it into a house or a family, ruled by blood relations or by merely economic operations.\u2019[21] This tendency has been cyclically interrupted by \u2018symmetrically opposed phases in which everything that is unpolitical must be mobilised and politicised.\u2019[22] Furthermore, Agamben goes on, \u2018[i]n accordance with the prevailing of one or the other tendency, the function, situation and form of civil war will also change.\u2019[23] For this claim to be correctly understood, one ought to bring into focus what Agamben had contended elsewhere\u2014namely, that since the fall of the Greek polis, Western biopolitics has been characterised by the two paradigms of \u2018politico-juridical\u2019 and \u2018economic-governmental\u2019 rationality. The discussion of the Hobbesian conception of stasis in the second part of Stasisought to be explored from this perspective of inquiry.\n\u2026and in Hobbes\nIn the second part of Stasis Agamben embarks upon a path that unconventionally combines the figurative description of the Leviathan\u2019s cover with the eschatological analysis of its content, as well as with that of De Cive and Elements of Law. Pauline Messianism plays a pivotal role in this part of Agamben\u2019s reflections, as he focuses on the essence of the Parousia, or the second coming of Christ at the end of time. Here, too, Agamben draws heavily on his previous scholarship.[24]\nThrough a literal analysis of the third part of Leviathan and the \u2018veritable treatise on the Kingdom of God\u2019[25] contained therein, Agamben challenges the common (i.e. Schmittian) view according to which the modern governmental machine holds back the coming of the Kingdom of God (Parousia).[26] To the contrary, Agamben argues that\n[a]gainst the prevailing doctrine, which tended to interpret the New Testament concept of the Basileia theouin a metaphorical direction, Hobbes forcefully asserts that in both the Old and New Testament the Kingdom of God signifies a real political Kingdom, which . . . Christ will restore at the end of time.[27]\nDrawing a parallel between Hobbes\u2019s conception and the relative passages in Paul and the Scriptures, Agamben further maintains that \u2018the Kingdom of God on Earth will be realised . . . only at the moment of the second coming of Christ. Until then, the analyses of the preceding books of Leviathanremain valid.\u2019[28] From this, it follows that the terrain and celestial kingdoms are \u2018from the eschatological perspective . . . somehow coordinated, since both take place on earth and the Leviathan will necessarily disappear when the Kingdom of God is realised politically in the world.\u2019[29] The \u2018enigmas of the [Leviathan\u2019s] frontispiece\u2019 can, then, only be solved within this \u2018eschatological perspective.\u2019[30]\nIt is here that Agamben\u2019s reveals the crucial role that his reading of Hobbes has for his coming politics beyond biopolitics. Indeed, once this eschatological perspective is adopted, it emerges that even the head of the Leviathan has a specific eschatological meaning (or function). Noting that \u2018the tiny bodies that constitute the body of the colossus are curiously absent from his head,\u2019[31] Agamben contends that the Leviathan represents the \u2018\u201chead\u201d of a body political that is formed by the people of the subjects.\u2019[32] \u2018This image, he goes on, \u2018derives directly from the Pauline conception.\u2019[33] On these lines, the Leviathan is \u2018the profane counterpart of the relation between Christ and the ekkl\u0113sia\u2019[34] \u2014 a reading which \u2018cannot be separated from the thesis of Pauline eschatology.\u2019[35] Indeed, as \u2018at the end of time, in the Kingdom of Heaven, there will no longer be any distinction between the head and the body, because God will be in all.\u2019[36] Only at that very moment \u2018the cephalic fiction of the Leviathan could be erased and the people discover its own body\u2019.[37]\nThe modern state, then, \u2018coincides with the very eschatological beast which must be annihilated at the end of time.\u2019[38] Thus, to conceive, as Schmitt does,[39] of the modern state as the katech\u014dnis incorrect; rather, \u2018contemporary politics is founded on a secularisation of eschatology.\u2019[40] More specifically, \u2018it is not the confusion of the eschatological with the political that defines Hobbes\u2019s politics, but a singular relation between the autonomous powers.\u2019[41] These are indeed \u2018eschatologically connected, in the sense that the first will necessarily haveto disappear when the second is realised.\u2019[42] In other words, the form of Pauline messianism advocated by Agamben and outlined above demands the destruction (or destitution) of the modern state and its sovereign (i.e. biopolitical) prerogatives.\nNot coincidentally, Agamben wants us to think of the creation of the Leviathan as a step in biopolitics\u2019 modern circular movement from the moment of civil war, to the \u2018disunited multitude,\u2019 to the \u2018people-king\u2019 paradigm, then to the \u2018dissolved multitude,\u2019 and finally back again to civil war.[43] Through the formation of the modern city, or body politic, the \u2018disunited multitude\u2019 of the state of nature exceptionallyconstitutes itself into the people. However, when giving form and substance to the sovereign, the people contemporaneously and paradoxically disappears, leaving the scene to an entity that \u2018has no political significance\u2019[44] \u2014namely, the \u2018dissolved multitude,\u2019 which \u2018is the unpolitical element upon whose exclusion the city is founded.\u2019[45] Importantly, this logic of simultaneous constitution and dissolution applies to monarchies, democracies, and aristocracies alike.[46] Hence, Agamben continues, \u2018in the city there is only the multitude, since the people has always already vanished into the sovereign\u2019[47] as shown on the Leviathan\u2019s cover. This passage is of pivotal importance for the correct understanding of Agamben\u2019s philosophy and political project because it shows that, as he himself has further clarified more recently, \u2018the city is founded in the division of life into bare life and politically qualified life.\u2019[48]\nHere is where civil war enters the scene to never leave it. Indeed, Agamben writes, \u2018[i]f the dissolved multitude \u2013 and not the people \u2013 is the sole human presence in the city, and if the multitude is the subject of civil war, this means that civil was remains always possible within the state.\u2019[49] This is why, after his eschatological analysis, Agamben reaffirms that until the second coming of Christ, \u2018the body political can only dissolve itself into a multitude and the Leviathan can only live together . . . with Behemoth \u2013 with the possibility of civil war.\u2019[50] Civil war, we may therefore conclude drawing from Agamben\u2019s Aristotelian terminology, lies at the threshold between actuality and potentiality. It lurks in the penumbra of social relations[51] constantly defining them and always reminding the body politic of its occult, demonic[52] origins: \u2018civil war is a projection of the state of nature into the city.\u2019[53]\nDr Luca Siliquini-Cinelli, Lecturer, School of Law, University of Dundee; l.siliquinicinelli@dundee.ac.uk\nCall for contributions to \u2018Key Concepts\u2019.\n[1] A similar conclusion had been reached, via a different route, by Roberto Esposito, whom Agamben does not cite. In Communitas. The Origin and Destiny of Community, trans. Timothy Campbell (Stanford: Stanford University Press, [1998] 2010) 28\u201329, Esposito places at the centre of the formation of the Hobbesian political construct \u2018the drastic elimination of every kind of social bond.\u2019 What paradoxically defines the Leviathan is, then, \u2018absolute dissociation\u2019 to the extent that \u2018the state is the desocialization of the communitarian bond.\u2019 Ibid.\n[2] For the purposes of this entry, see Dimitris Vardoulakis, \u2018Stasis.

Political Sublime and the World Order(Oxford: Hart Publishing, 2018) 112.\n[53] Agamben, Stasis, supra note 3, at 53. Whether Agamben\u2019s statement is reflective of what Esposito has defined as \u2018the first paradigmatic axis [in which] Italian thought is rooted,\u2019 namely, \u2018the immanentization of antagonism[or] [t]he idea that conflict is constitutive of order,\u2019 is open to discussion. It might indeed be argued that by combining disorder and order together, Agamben is partly reading Hobbes through Machiavellian lenses. See Roberto Esposito, Living Thought: The Origins and Actuality of Italian Philosophy, trans. Zakiya Hanafi (Stanford: Stanford University Press, [2010] 2012) 24 and 53\u201354.\nI read this article and found it very interesting, thought it might be something for you.

        "raw_content": "The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column. The brain and spinal cord together make up the central nervous system (CNS). In humans, the spinal cord begins at the occipital bone where it passes through the foramen magnum, and meets and enters the spinal canal at the beginning of the cervical vertebrae. The spinal cord extends down to between the first and second lumbar vertebrae where it ends. The enclosing bony vertebral column protects the relatively shorter spinal cord. It is around 45 cm (18 in) in men and around 43 cm (17 in) long in women. Also, the spinal cord has a varying width, ranging from 13 mm (1\u20442 in) thick in the cervical and lumbar regions to 6.4 mm (1\u20444 in) thick in the thoracic area.\nThe spinal cord functions primarily in the transmission of nerve signals from the motor cortex to the body, and from the afferent fibers of the sensory neurons to the sensory cortex. It is also a center for coordinating many reflexes and contains reflex arcs that can independently control reflexes and central pattern generators.\nThe spinal cord is the main pathway for information connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system.[2][3] Much shorter than its protecting spinal column, the human spinal cord originates in the brainstem, passes through the foramen magnum, and continues through to the conus medullaris near the second lumbar vertebra before terminating in a fibrous extension known as the filum terminale.\nIt is about 45 cm (18 in) long in men and around 43 cm (17 in) in women, ovoid-shaped, and is enlarged in the cervical and lumbar regions. The cervical enlargement, stretching from the C5 to T1 vertebrae, is where sensory input comes from and motor output goes to the arms and trunk. The lumbar enlargement, located between L1 and S3, handles sensory input and motor output coming from and going to the legs.\nNeurology - Spinal Cord Introduction\nStructure of Spinal Cord\nAnatomy of the Spinal Cord and How it Works",

        "raw_content": "How Romania is seen from an EU economic indicators perspective\nEurostatistics is a synthesis based on a set of standardized and harmonized benchmarks for the comparability between countries at the European level (Principal European Economic Indicators \u2013 PEEIs in English).\nThese indicators are published and reviewed monthly, in order to provide a synthetic picture of a national economy and recent developments.\nHere is the way it looks, on the website of the EU statistical body, a selection of the indicators of interest for the way Romania is seen from the outside, from the perspective of the centralized analysis at the level of the EU and the conclusions that can be drawn from recent economic evolutions:\nLabour costs (%, Q/Q4)\nTurnover in the services field (%, Q/Q4)\nEmployment (Q/Q-1)\nJob vacancy rate (%)\nHousing prices (%, Q/Q4)\nMar 18 Apr 18 May 18 June 18 July 18 Aug 18\nIndustrial production (%, M/M-12)\nConstruction (%, M/M-12)\nLong-term bond yield (%/year)\nEuro/RON exchange rate\nFirstly, the steady increase in labour cost draws attention, an increase well above the economic advance and constantly speeding up.\nWhat does not appear (because of the dilution in the overall average) in European statistics is even more important, namely the significantly intensified rhythm of increases in the public sector compared to the private sector.\nIt is noteworthy in this context that since the beginning of 2017 the turnover evolution in the services sector was far from keeping up with the evolution of revenues which rose far beyond the productivity advance and were reflected in the evolution of labour costs. But the service sector is predominant in the GDP structure in any advanced economy.\nWith the benefit of a slowdown in the inflation index, the extra money went at a significant proportion to the real estate sector. This is where heavy struggles take place to maintain it, at the very least, within the macroeconomic stability benchmark of + 6% displayed on the scoreboard in Q2 2017, then moderated but returned to the trouble area earlier this year.\nThe employment, set on the downward trend in Q3 2017, returned to better values in the two following quarters, although the job vacancy rate slightly increased back from 1.1% to 1.3%, namely where it was also at the beginning of 2017. The signals are that it is becoming increasingly difficult to find people with certain specializations and skill levels.\nThe unemployment rate has maintained constant and relatively low compared to the European average, but it would look quite different after adjusting it with those who went to work abroad. Here is the explanation of the relatively low budget revenue collection as a share of GDP (about 70% of the EU average), although the taxation level is not low. But with 70% of the country\u2019s workforce left, we can only have 70% of the revenue collection at a 100% load of those who stayed to support the state budget.\nIncidentally, what about the social solidarity between generations in terms of paying the pensions? Those who stayed to work in Romania also support the parents of that 30 % who went to more promising places. Who, from higher wages, also send money home directly to those who are jointly supported by lower wages offered in the country.\nFor now, the evolution of industrial production, the one that sets the tone for the whole economy, remains robust, but the merits belong exclusively to the private sector, as there is no involvement of the state in terms of significant investments. The latest data on the construction sector also shows a recovery, but the trend remains to be confirmed in the next quarters.\nUnfortunately, yields of government long-term bond rose above the 5% level at the beginning of Q3 2018 and will have consequences on interest payments, already up by 20% in the first seven months of the year, despite the decrease in the public debt share in GDP.\nIn spite of the current account deficit increase and the decrease in economic performance, including an increase in the trade deficit, the euro/RON exchange rate remained relatively stable and even returned to slightly lower levels in the summer months, as the attempt of exceeding the threshold of 4.65 RON/euro has been halted in the middle of the year.\nAll in all, data show that we should curb the forced march of increasing incomes, be they wages or pensions, to correlate them much more closely with the labour productivity and the results of the real economy. While not yet problematic, the picture of the economic data monitored by Eurostat raises questions about the macroeconomic stability.\nSomething that is like health, which you do not value enough until you lose it.\nEtichete: eu, indicators, labour costs, romania, statistics",

        "title": "Minutes and Popcorn: Heat (1995)",
        "raw_content": "A masterpiece. A mindblowing film. A brilliant piece of art. No words or phrase can do this film justice. If I could give this film an 11 out of 10, I would, but that would make no sense and just simply violate the purpose of ratings. When I started watching \"Heat\", I wasn't even in the mood for a movie. I had nothing to do and I wanted to kill time. Everytime I decided to turn it off and go do something else, I found myself drawn into the character's plight and the coming sequence of events. By the time I was 10 minutes into the movie, I was completely soaked in \"Heat\". \"Heat\" is a movie that is hard to describe. It would be such an terrible understatement if I called it an action film because even though it touches only the surface of many different genres, it succeeds with incredible direction.\n\"Heat\" is a robber and cop drama that tries on a very different approach. It brings in many support characters, all with good purpose and detail, to spin an epic yet personal tale of passion and principles. Although \"Heat\" does focus on the robber (Robert De Niro) and the cop (Al Pacino), it would not be fair to discredit the role of the support of the characters in this film as doing so will take away the epic magnitude of this film. Having said that, I am not going to talk much about the actual plot of this film as there would be too much to write without giving away the whole story.\nThe leads in this film carry it as their roles bring everyone together, they are like the medium that channels the strength of all the supporting characters into a huge cesspool of brilliance. Even though Robert De Niro plays a villian, you can't help but feel for him, wanting him to get away despite his deeds. In my opinion, he is what every man should be; decisive, smart, fearless and compassionate to those he know. Al Pacino plays a less likable character but equally understandable. Both of them have dedicated their lives to their own line of work and when they finally meet, they can't help but have admiration for each other. \"Heat\" isn't an idealistic drama about good vs bad. The cop isn't trying to catch the robber simply because the robber is doing bad things. The cop enjoys his work and is very good at it, it's his life's passion and he doesn't want to stop. When he meets someone who is equally good at robbing things, they form a unspoken bond of respect.\nWith a cast like Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Val Kilmer, Jon Voight, it's almost impossible to go wrong. Throw in an epic plot, great directing and powerful editing, you get a film that jumps into the league of movies like \"The Dark Knight\". \"Heat\" is easily one of the best films I have seen and anybody who isn't just there for the \"guns and cars\" will appreciate it very thoroughly. \"Heat\" is easily a 10/10 in my books.",

Still, it's something.\nI'm the 'Columbo' of mystery writers, in that the audience already knows the answer to the mystery beforehand and the tension is in how the mystery is solved. Alternatively, the tension derives from there being a bunch of different possible solutions to the same problem. Which one will our protagonists choose? And then what happens?\nPure mystery, though? Eh. Whenever I try to write it I always envision a reality TV show dragging out the drumroll music for way too long.\nBe that as it may: Sherlock Holmes is so cool he can outwit even a pseudodragon.\nReading - \"The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes\" (Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)\nLabels: Flash Fiction Orgy, The Speckled Band\nI'm working on this, David. The problem for me is coming up with an idea that isn't, on the face of it, absurd.\nWhat's funny is that I routinely use the word \"susurration\" in my writing (well maybe not routinely, but definitely more than I use it in speaking). But the word \"susurrus\" sounds so... inappropriate. It feels like there should be a taboo against susurri.\nMaybe that's a story right there...\nNow, I don't want to discourage absurdity, but I take the opposite view of 'susurration' vs. 'susurrus'. And I'm even more entrenched in that opinion now that you've introduced 'susurri', which sounds like what a sufficiently advanced Humanity would call an alien species.",

        "title": "The mysterious life and death of Dr George Mott, in Iquitos, 1927 | Dawn on the Amazon Captains Blog",
        "raw_content": "The mysterious life and death of Dr George Mott, in Iquitos, 1927\nDr. George Mott photo from his passport in Guatamala\nI receive a lot of emails for a lot of reasons, but this one stands out for capturing my attention and imagination. How about yours? If you have any ideas or information, please post it in the comments below.\n\u201cI found your site and wondered if you might help me with finding information on my great grandfather. His name was George Mott and he lived and died in Iquitos on April 2, 1927. He was buried there by a Gustav Fleering \u201c in the panteon\u201d . George was a medical doctor. The papers we found from the American Consular Service states at death he had in his possession 10 cases of collections of butterflies and other animals\u2026We think George may have been doing research. Is there anyone in your town that might have any information or can you tell my who I might contact? Any information you have will be greatly appreciated.\u201d\nDr. George Mott's republic of Guatemala passport. The date appears to be 1921\nSo we sent one of our top researchers, Juan Maldonado, to the public register, to the cemetery register, and to the cemetery to look in the section devoted to burials from 1925 to 1928. He found nothing pertinent to this mystery, but in the process of his investigation he lost his glasses and his cell phone.\nThe trail is cold. We have more questions than answers. Why was he in Guatemala? Why was he in Ecuador? Why Columbia? I speculate he was traveling over-land through Central and South America in the 1920\u2032s to Peru. We know he traveled from Illinois to Texas, to Florida.\nThe Death Certificate for Doctor George Mott\nWe know from the Death Certificate Dr. George Mott died in Iquitos, April 8th, 1927.\nThe American Consulat report on George Mott in 1927\nThis document from the American Consulate General, lets us know that George Mott died with \u201cpractically nothing of value; no cloths and no money, only 10 cases of collections of butterflies, and other animals, seven of which are stated to be of utterly no value: and three of which have already been sold by the British Consul for twenty soles, to keep them from decay. In addition to this, the assets of the estates consists of such proceeds as may be realized from the sale of 6,000 butterflies to Germany shortly before the death of Mr. Mott. It is stated that some butterflies were sent to New York but the consignment was refused. Inas much as Mr. Mott owed a board bill of 810 soles the British Cousul has been requested to turn over any sum up to that amount to Mr. Gustav Fleering,\u2026\u201d\nThis is page two of the American Consular report on the mysterious death of Doctor George Mott\nIn Mister Fleering\u2019s letter to the British Consul the former stated he had buried Mister Mott in the \u201cpanteon\u201d (cemetery) No further details are known. The death is being reported\u2026to Mr. Tranger of Philadelphia, inas much as he is the only person with whom Mr. Mott is known to have had more than business dealings. I am informed that Mr. Mott repeatedly stated that he had no family in the United States, and inas much as he left no estate, it does not appear useful to pursue the matter further.\u201d\nThe stamp on the upper left is dated June 2nd 1921 Columbia\nIntriguing. His passport reveals he was in Columbia June 2, 1921, Ecuador August 4, 1925, Guatemala, May 13, 1925 and died in Peru April 8, 1927. He did not travel a straight line. Why did he travel from Ecuador to Guatemala then to Peru? Did he travel overland? Was he was just flitting from country to country chasing butterflies\u2026\nSketch of George Mott, with his signature, fingerprint, gray eyes, profession seems to read chemist, passport number 426, Bogata is crossed out and what appears to be Valencia (?) is written , May 1924, in Columbia\nAnd then to add to the details and the mystery, this follow up email;\n\u201cThank for you interest and the beautiful pictures. Sorry I have been a trouble and your friend lost his phone and glasses. Did he find them?\nHe was born in Yorkville, Illinois in 1854. He came to Hardin county Texas around 1883 and married 3 times, the last wife was my great grandmother, Laura. George became a dr in 1889 after the death of his 1st wife in child birth. He traveled alot to study new medical procedures and when he left home 1912 he signed on as a crew dr for a railroad. He was only going to be gone a short time but had a hotel in north east texas send his clothes home with a letter he would be back soon. He never returned. The family assumed he was killed somewhere. In the 80\u2032s a cousin tried to find him but only found more questions. I started trying to find him about a year ago and found him in Florida on the 1920 census. So then the question was where he was between 1912 and 1920 and then where he died. Another cousin works for an oil company and her job is to find heirs so she decided to find George. She came up with the passport and death certificate and a letter from the American Consulate General. Our interest is why he went down there, what he was doing (except catching butterflies and why) and I guess for closure.\nThe passport (#42(5)6) is from Guatemala 5/13/1925, Colombia 6/2/1921, Equador 8/4/1925. There is another paper in another language dated 3/3/1924. Thanks again for you interest.\u201d\nMike Collis, editor of the Iquitos Times, Caleb Whitaker author of Jungle Love and I have spent many hours speculating about George Mott\u2019s life and death, and what Iquitos was like to live in circa 1927.\nThis morning I paid our researcher on the street, Juan Maldonado, S/10 soles to bring a old well spoken man with a good memory. That\u2019s how I came to meet the charming 87 year old Ulises Elespuro. I enjoyed our conversation. According to Don Ulises, poor people with no assets were buried in a common grave. He was only 2 years old in 1927 so his impressions of that date must have his age taken in to consideration. He estimated the population of Iquitos in 1927 at 200 souls.\nCaleb and I looked at the aerial photo taken in 1924, attributed to Elmer Faucett, in Scott Humfeld\u2019s excellent article Iquitos Peru, A Photographic Record Of Iquitos Peru; Past and Present. We tried to estimate the population of Iquitos in 1924. Caleb thought 2,000 to 3,000, I think 5,000 to 10,000. Another friend of mine, Bill Park, is trained at estimating the number of birds in a flock or people in a crowd estimated 50,000. So we have guesses from 200 to 50,000. What do you think?\nMuch has been written about Iquitos during the rubber boom from approximately 1880 to 1912, when the population may have grown to over 20,000 people in the middle of the rainforest where rivers took the place of roads, but what happened after the collapse? I did a little research on the internet and found that only 14% of the most sound businesses continued to prosper into 1927 and beyond. What about the other 86% of the businesses? What was the population in 1927 and what was life like for it\u2019s residents two decades after the economy of Iquitos collapsed?\nWhat about your imagination? What do you think? Leave a comment below to let us know.\nThe mysterious life and death of Dr. George Mott, in Iquitos 1927\nI have the honor to be your obedient servant, Bill Grimes reporting from Iquitos Peru 2012, striving to avoid the fate of Dr. Mott\u2026\nOther articles about the history of Iquitos in the Peruvian Amazon can be read here.

Look forward to seeing you and the Boulevard Gang in Nov.\n2 Captain Bill September 26, 2011 at 10:48 am\nI\u2019m very sorry this comment box was not working for a few days. There is no way to know what we missed, but thanks to my friend Martin for commenting as soon as I got it working again and thanks to another good friend of mine Glen Short, who felt strongly enough he went to the trouble of emailing me his comment\nthat story about Dr Mott was very interesting. I love those kinds of stories. Seems to me we may never find out the circumstances of his death, but two scenarios crossed my mind while reading your story.\n1. His grand-daughter said he deserted his third wife, backtracked between several countries, and one of the documents says he was in debt for his board. Maybe he faked his own disappearance, or paid the consequences for not paying his debts, from what I have read, in the Amazon region back in those days scores were settled like in the Wild West (Sir Roger Casement\u2019s reports make interesting but depressing reading in this regard).\n2. By the looks of his photo in the passport, he was already quite old, and in those days if you made it to 50 you were doing well. Maybe he died of natural causes, drowned or fell victim to one of the jungle\u2019s many predators or fevers on one of his butterfly catching expeditions.\nWhen I went to the Iquitos cemetery it was quite an experience. I think there is room for someone to conduct tours there, if someone could tally up all the interesting characters buried there, beginning with Fitzcarraldo.\nGlen David Short knows a thing or two about good stories. He is the author of An Odd Odyssey, a collection of stories from Glen\u2019s extensive travels. An Odd Odyssey is one of my favorite books. I know he must be working on volume two because Glen\u2019s Odd Odyssey has continued ever since\u2026\n3 Crystal September 30, 2011 at 9:13 am\nThank you, Bill, for posting this. George Mott not only left behind seven children, but also left more than 30 grandchildren and countless more descendents with more questions than answers. The last memory my own great-grandfather (who was about 10-11 years old at the time) has of his father was George turning to throw a casual wave behind him as he drove his horse and wagon down the dusty road in East Texas before he disappeared into the woods of the Big Thicket.\nSo far, we have at least one representative descendent (that we know of!) from nearly all of George Mott\u2019s children now researching this mysterious man.\nAny information anyone can provide, whether seems useful or not, would be most helpful and appreciated. Bill has most of our email addresses and can keep us updated, or feel free to send me an email at crystalrawls@ymail.com.\nThe Grand Tour, Loreto Peru, October 3rd 1853 | Dawn on the Amazon Captains Blog\nA Brief History Of Iquitos In 1980 | Dawn on the Amazon Captains Blog\nPrevious post: Steamships of the Rubber Boom: Recovering History in the Peruvian Amazon\nNext post: Amazon River Water Level October 4th, 2011",

        "raw_content": "Problem: God commanded Moses not to make \u201cany carved image\u201d (Ex. 20:4), lest it be used as an idol. Yet here Moses was commanded to \u201cmake a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole.\u201d Later, the people worshiped this very image (2 Kings 18:4). Does not God command Moses to violate the very command He gave him against idolatry?\nSolution: First of all, the command against making \u201ccarved images\u201d was a command against making idols. God did not command Moses to make an idol for the people to worship but a symbol to which they could look in faith and be healed. Later, the people made this symbol into an idol. But this does not make the symbol wrong. After all, people have worshiped the Bible. This does not mean that the Bible was intended by God as an idol.\nFurther, not all \u201cimages\u201d are idols. Religious art contains images but is not thereby idolatrous. God also instructed Moses to make cherubim (angels) for the ark, but they were not idols. There is a difference between a God-appointed representation of symbol (e.g., the bread and wine in the Lord\u2019s Supper) and a man-made idol (see comments on Ex. 20:4).",

        "raw_content": "New Age Thinking - Don't miss out on Quality Staff!\nThe 90\u2019s have been predominately characterised by corporate restructures, mergers and takeovers that have resulted in a large number of redundancies. Gone are the days of a secure job - at some stage in our lives all of us will most probably be touched by redundancy. For the most part, those who have been affected the most have been the middle aged. Unfortunately unemployment statistics do not reflect the true picture of unemployment in this age group as most have been forced into early retirement. Many in this age group don\u2019t have the desire to retire early due to financial commitments, personal reasons or simply because they enjoy working.\nAlthough the Anti Discrimination Act of 1977 makes it unlawful to discriminate against someone on the basis of age, studies have indicated that employers have minimal interest in hiring someone over 45 and virtually no interest in someone who is 56 years +. For the most part, many employers feel that more mature workers are less dynamic and adaptable. Bringing with them a wealth of expertise, this group is able to overcome the inexperience of youth. Given that the 45 year old age bracket will be the largest labour group by 2020, employers will be presented with a challenge that will force a change in perceptions and attitudes.\nMature workers can prove to be a valuable asset to any team, drawing on their experience and reliability, and contrary to popular belief, adaptability. Next time you are presented with someone who does not quite fit the mould, be sure to judge him or her on the person they are and not a preconceived notion.

There is no reason why the finder of fact could not evaluate any evidence and decide whether Defendants\u2019 conduct was 'willful, wanton, malicious, bad-faith, deliberate, consciously wrongful, flagrant, or \u0336 indeed \u0336 characteristic of a pirate.' Because [the expert's] opinion on whether Defendants\u2019 conduct was willful would not assist the trier of fact, it is not relevant. Further, there is no reason to believe that [the expert] has any particular qualifications above and beyond that of a layperson to determine the state of mind of another. . . . Whether or not [defendants'] actions constituted willful infringement and what weight should be given to outside counsel\u2019s opinions on infringement is the province of the fact finder.\"\nLoggerhead Tools, LLC v.

To the contrary, storing documents that are less frequently used in a library or on a bookshelf as opposed to on one\u2019s desk is a common solution to a common problem of limited space in physical offices everywhere. . . . The elements of the claims that relate to the means of moving and positioning the document objects suffer from the same lack of inventive concept. According to [plaintiff], the 'touch and drop' and 'flicking' gestures were 'improvements specifically adapted for a 3-D space' because 'known techniques for operating a 2-D workspace such as drag and drop techniques were not efficient.' But the patents do not disclose any specific ways, hardware or software, that a user may program or implement these gestures. . . . An additional problem for [plaintiff] is that the patents and claims here, which are defined in terms of their functionalities only, raise a serious preemption concern.\"\nTriDim Innovations LLC v.

[plaintiffs] argued then that [defendant's] infringement would deprive them of their right to exclusive manufacture and sale of the patented products, which would in turn result in 'immediate loss of business to [plaintiff] including a loss of market share and market opportunities in the United States.'. . . Yet Plaintiffs' claims were not born out. As of . . . four months after Plaintiffs' opening brief was filed [plaintiff's global marketing director] acknowledged that he did 'not [then] have proof or knowledge of any lost business.' And two and a half months after that, when Plaintiffs filed their reply brief . . . the record was hardly much different. . . . Indeed, seven months after the Motion was filed, Plaintiffs can point to scarcely any lost sales at all, and have made no assertion that the amount of [plaintiff's] product sales in the hospitals referenced above have made any appreciable dent in [plaintiff's product's] market share.\"\nIntegra LifeSciences Corporation et al v.

[T]he [claim at issue] does not merely permit a known business practice to be performed on the Internet. Instead, the claim here specifies how a solution will be implemented that addresses a business challenge particular to the Internet. . . . [A]lthough the limitations to the claim in this case are not inventive alone, the ordered combination of these limitations is inventive because, taken together, the limitations are not routine and conventional. The claim does not simply dictate that communication must be targeted and access restricted. Instead, the claim states that users themselves will be able to control interactions on their web pages by managing business rules that will utilize profiles of other users to generate configurable links to determine how other users may interact with his or her web page. . . . Regardless of whether the subject matter of the patent is characterized as group collaboration with targeted communication or as restrictions on public access, the claim contains enough inventive elements to be aimed at more than a patent on the abstract idea itself.\"\nZak v. Facebook, Inc., 4-15-cv-13437 (MIED September 12, 2016, Order) (Berg, USDJ)\nCursory Jury Deliberation Does Not Justify New Trial\u200b\nThe court denied plaintiff's motion for new trial because of the jury's \"cursory\" deliberations after a five-day trial. \"[Plaintiff] argues that the jury deliberations took only 45 minutes, and '[t]hese cursory 'deliberations' yielded a verdict counter to the great weight of the evidence.' However, '[b]rief jury deliberation is not, in itself, sufficient basis to support a new trial motion. [The] Fourth Circuit once upheld the trial court's denial of a new trial motion where the jury had deliberated only four minutes. . . .' Here, the jury was extremely attentive throughout the trial, as evidenced by the questions it submitted to be asked of witnesses, and appeared to take the matter very seriously.\"\nART+COM Innovationpool GmbH v.

The Court finds the elements of claim 1 show that the claim is directed to a method of using a 'control signal' associated with 'digital programming' to 'decrypt programming' 'based on' the 'control signal.' The Court finds that claim 1 is not directed to 'converting information from one format to another.' . . . [T]he claim and the specification show that using a 'control signal' to control decryption improves the way in which 'encrypted digital programming' is delivered.\"\nPersonalized Media Communications LLC v.

Resolving this fact question (or even considering it) would require the Court to consider evidence outside the pleadings. . . . Accordingly, the Court believes that [defendant's] motion must be resolved at the summary judgment stage. . . . This case is an example of one in which claim construction is likely to resolve critically important questions that bear on subject matter eligibility.\"\nDiamond Grading Technologies LLC v. American Gem Society et al, 2-14-cv-01161 (TXED September 12, 2016, Order) (Payne, MJ)\nElectronic Trading Patent Likely Unpatentable Under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 101\u200b\nThe Board granted institution of covered business method review of a patent directed to electronic trading under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 101. \"[C]laim 1, as a whole, recites a sequence for displaying and submitting electronic versions of what used to be paper forms\u2014i.e., using two screens\u2014one displaying price information and the second comprising a detailed order form\u2014to confirm or modify orders. While it may be true that, a human could not 'provide a configurable trading interface,' the idea of dividing trading into two steps\u2014displaying a price and then having a detailed order form was, as Petitioner shows, a known, if not ancient, concept . . . . [T]he claimed improvement does not improve the performance of the computer, but instead improves the performance of the human. The computers operate just as they always did, and the invention simply uses existing computer tools to allow the human to perform better.

Now, as the doors to the market have swung open, [defendant] seeks to usurp [plaintiffs'] position in that market with pirated technology. Moreover, potential customers cannot easily be recovered, inasmuch as laboratories purchase new DNA-sequencing equipment infrequently and irregularly, in part because laboratories must win government approval for use of any new DNA-sequencing equipment. . . . At this crucial inflection point in the development of the market for DNA sequencing equipment for clinical laboratories, [plaintiffs] would suffer irreparable harm if [defendant] were allowed to capture and define the market with pirated technology alongside its preexisting relationships and disruptive business model.\"\nIllumina, Inc. et al v. QIAGEN, NV et al, 3-16-cv-02788 (CAND September 9, 2016, Order) (Alsup, USDJ)\nCellular Network Messaging Patent Not Ineligible Under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 101\u200b\nThe court denied defendant's motion for summary judgment that the asserted claims of plaintiff\u2019s cellular network messaging patent encompassed unpatentable subject matter because the asserted claims were not directed toward an abstract idea. \"[T]he asserted claims in the [patent] are not directed to an abstract idea, but rather implement a specific improvement in cellular networking. . . . [T]he [patent] is not directed to the abstract idea of determining information about something and taking action in response. The [patent] solves a problem that is created by the design of cellular networks, specifically the use of dynamic addresses for wireless terminals and the allocation of information inside and outside the cellular network. The [patent] claims a method of sending an inquiry between two different network elements, and the abstract idea 'matching identifiers to retrieve information' is only part of the method.\"\nComcast Cable Communications, LLC et al v. Sprint Communications Company LP et al, 2-12-cv-00859 (PAED August 25, 2016, Order) (Dubois, SJ)\nMotion to Dismiss for Lack of Patentable Subject Matter Denied for Failure to Establish Representative Claims\u200b\nThe court denied without prejudice defendant's motion to dismiss on the ground that plaintiff\u2019s four wireless routing patents encompassed unpatentable subject matter because defendant failed to meet its burden to establish a representative claim. \"[Defendant] has not adequately explained why the Asserted Patents relate to the same abstract idea embodied by [one claim of one of the patents-in-suit]. . . . [Defendant] asserts in conclusory fashion: 'All Asserted Patents generally related to the same subject matter, are substantially similar, and claim the same abstract idea-fundamental methods of routing a message among a plurality of telecommunication nodes, independent of a central computer separate from nodes.'. . . The court agrees with [plaintiff] that [defendant] fails 'to identify a consistent abstract idea upon which to base its motion.' Furthermore, [defendant] fails to provide meaningful analysis for each of the challenged patent claims at issue.\"\nJSDQ Mesh Technologies LLC v. Fluidmesh Networks, LLC f/k/a Fluidmesh Networks, Inc., 1-16-cv-00212 (DED September 6, 2016, Order) (Sleet, USDJ)\nNew PTAB Rules Result in Decline of Institution of IPRs\nA final rule issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and published in the April 1st edition of the Federal Register amended rules of practice for trials held before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). The rule changes are designed to \u201cmake the trial proceedings more fair and effective\u201d for inter partes reviews (IPRs) and other PTAB proceedings which were created by the America Invents Act of 2011 (AIA).\nOne of the rule changes affecting PTAB proceedings allows patent owners an opportunity to supply new evidence with their preliminary response to the petition before the PTAB decides to institute patent review proceedings. Public comments received by the USPTO argued that the new rule would help level the playing field in PTAB proceedings, allowing evidence from both sides prior to the decision to institute an IPR or other proceedings. The preliminary response is a voluntary action for a patent owner and the USPTO maintains that \u201cno negative inference will be drawn\u201d if a patent owner decides not to file a preliminary response.\nSince these rules went into effect on May 2nd, patent owners have had this new option for responding to patent challenges at the PTAB. Now, Docket Navigator has made search tools available for those who want to find out whether a preliminary response containing new testimony provides any benefit to a patent owner.\nOf the 16 institution decisions filed since May 2nd in IPRs in which a patent owner filed a preliminary response with a declaration, seven IPRs were granted institution while six others were denied; the remaining three were granted partial institution. This is admittedly a small sample size, so caution should be used when extrapolating statistics from it. As Rick Neifeld, of Neifeld IP Law in Alexandria, VA, commented, \u201cWe should have a statistically significant number of cases by the end of September.\u201d When compared to the overall success rate of IPR institution decisions filed during that same time period, the results so far seem to indicate that IPRs are denied more often when a patent owner files a preliminary response. Of the 380 institution decisions in IPRs filed between May 2nd and August 26th of this year, 122 have been denied institution while 172 have been instituted.\n*IPRs w/ institution decisions filed between May 2-August 26.\nTaking out the IPR petitions in which a preliminary response has been filed without a declaration, it\u2019s easy to see that the filing of a declaration with the preliminary response at least correlates with higher rates of denial of institution for IPRs. Of 364 IPRs in which the patent owner did not file a declaration with the preliminary response, just under 32% were denied institution while more than 45% were granted institution. When preliminary responses with declarations are filed by a patent owner (see the first chart), IPRs are denied institutions at a rate of 37.5%. Partial institutions also rise slightly when declarations are filed with preliminary responses to about 19% percent compared to around 23% when declarations aren\u2019t filed with the preliminary responses.\nThe American intellectual property landscape continues to shift and it is helpful for patent owners to stay on top of how recent legal developments can affect their ability to retain their patent rights. With Docket Navigator, a patent owner has sophisticated tools which can provide insights into the best methods for defending against a PTAB challenge.\nPlaintiff\u2019s False and Misleading Testimony Concerning Standing Warrants Attorney Fees Award\n\u200b Following a dismissal for lack of standing, the court granted defendants' motion for attorney fees under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 285 because plaintiff's litigation conduct was unreasonable. \"Plaintiff\u2019s conduct throughout this litigation, culminating in his untruthful testimony at the hearing on the motion to dismiss, demonstrates a pattern of obfuscation and bad faith. Every time Defendants or the Court identified a defect in his standing, Plaintiff responded with a promise that he could produce evidence that would resolve that defect. Those promises never bore out. . . . The Court rejects Plaintiff\u2019s latest attempts to recharacterize his conduct as mere 'zealous pursuit of his good faith claim of ownership.' Plaintiff is not simply the hapless victim of overstatement or bad lawyering; he made false and misleading representations to Defendants and the Court that resulted in, among other things, prejudice to Defendants in the form of significant legal fees incurred in defending this action.\"\nRaniere v. Microsoft Corp., 3-15-cv-00540 (TXND September 2, 2016, Order) (Lynn, USDJ)\nLack of Corroborative Evidence for Conception Date Justifies New Trial on Anticipation\u200b\nFollowing a jury verdict of $14 million, the court granted in part defendant's motion for a new trial on anticipation because it was an error to allow the jury to determine whether a patent was prior art to the patent-at-issue. \"Because [plaintiff] did not present independent corroborative evidence of [the co-inventor's] testimony regarding the date of conception, [his] testimony regarding inventive facts must be disregarded. Considered as stand-alone documentary evidence, the whiteboard photographs, associated metadata, and Architecture Specification are also insufficient to meet [plaintiff's] burden to produce evidence of the date of conception of the [patent-in-suit]. . . . [B]oth [the co-inventor's] testimony and the documentary evidence are legally insufficient to prove a date of conception prior to the filing date of the [patent-in-suit]. . . . It was error to submit the issue whether [a purported prior art] patent was prior art to the [patent-in-suit] to the jury. The jury should have been instructed that the [patent] is prior art to the [patent-in-suit]. . . . The jury did not specifically find whether the [prior art] patent discloses every limitation of the asserted claims of the [patent-in-suit]. The question whether the [prior art] patent discloses the 'space efficient, probabilistic summary' of the asserted claims cannot be determined as a matter of law and is therefore a fact question for the jury. [Defendant] is thus entitled to a new trial on anticipation of the [patent-in-suit] by the [prior art] patent.\"\nEMC Corporation, et al. v. Pure Storage Inc., 1-13-cv-01985 (DED September 1, 2016, Order) (Andrews, USDJ)\nTest Kit Claims, but not Method Claims, of Tuberculosis Testing Patent Invalid Under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 101\u200b\nThe magistrate judge recommended granting in part defendants' motion to dismiss because the asserted claims of plaintiff\u2019s tuberculosis testing patents encompassed unpatentable subject matter and found that the test kit claims, but not the method claims, lacked an inventive concept. \"[T]he patented invention improves on existing methods for diagnosing TB by making diagnosis more convenient, less dependent on a physician\u2019s subjective interpretation of results, and more accurate. There is thus a plausible reading of the patents by which one could find that the plaintiff\u2019s in vitro tuberculosis test involves an inventive concept. . . . At this early juncture, the Court concludes that the in vitro aspect of the plaintiff\u2019s tuberculosis test is an 'inventive concept' because it improves on prior methods of detecting tuberculosis infection. It follows that the method claims, which describe the in vitro test, are potentially drawn to patentable subject matter. In contrast, the kit claims only describe the peptide panel itself and do not involve the 'inventive concept' of an in vitro test, and thus are not drawn to patentable subject matter.\"\nOxford Immunotec Ltd. v. Qiagen NV et al, 1-15-cv-13124 (MAD August 31, 2016, Order) (Cabell, MJ)\nAsserted Claims of Electronic Information Management Patent Invalid Under 35 U.S.C. \u00a7 101 \u200b\nThe court granted defendant's motion to dismiss because the asserted claims of plaintiff\u2019s electronic information management patent encompassed unpatentable subject matter and found that the claims were directed toward an abstract idea. \"[Defendant] argues that the asserted claims of the [patent-in-suit] 'are directed to the abstract idea of managing information and preferences among members of a community.' . . . [Plaintiff] argues that . . . the claims are not directed to an abstract idea because the 'the plain focus of the claims is on an improvement to computer functionality itself.'. . . [T]he invention of the [patent] seeks to make a non-technological improvement to the non-technological problem of providing a user with information that is better suited to the user. The asserted claims of the [patent] thus are directed to the concept of offering more meaningful information to an individual based on his own preferences and the preferences of a group of people with whom he is in pre-defined relationships. The claimed concept is abstract.\"\nSound View Innovations, LLC v.

        "raw_content": "go to Abner Jenne/Jenning's page\nA thorough search of records in Dartmouth and the region around it has revealed no birth record for Hannah, which is not surprising. Many residents of Dartmouth in the 18th century had no municipal birth records, including her husband and her children. She was very likely the daughter of Ephraim Landers and Elizabeth Burgess, who were married in Dartmouth about 3 years before she was born. After her first child, the next 4 were named Phebe, Elizabeth, Ephraim and Henry. Phebe and Henry were Abner's parents' names, so it's quite reasonable that the other two were named for Ephraim and Elizabeth Landers. Their first child was Luther and their last Jethro. Elizabeth Burgess had a brother Luther and Henry Jenne had a brother Jethro. Elizabeth (Burgess) Landers was a widow by 1774, and she may have been the older woman in Abner and Hannah's household when it was enumerated for the 1800 census.\nHannah was admitted to the First Congregational Church in what is now Fairhaven, Massachusetts, on 29 July 1801.(1) The following October her three surviving children, Phebe, Luther and Elizabeth, were baptized.\nchildren of Abner and Hannah (Landers) Jenne/Jennings:\ni.

        "raw_content": "Doomtree started as a mess of friends in Minneapolis, fooling around after school, trying to make music without reading the manual. The group had varied tastes\u2014rap, punk, indie rock, pop\u2014so the music they made together often bore the toolmarks of several styles. When they had enough songs, they booked some shows. They made friends with the dudes at Kinkos to print up flyers. They burned some CDs to sell. The shows got bigger. Of necessity, Doomtree\u2019s seven members (Cecil Otter, Dessa, Lazerbeak, Mike Mictlan, P.O.S, Paper Tiger, and Sims) figured out how to run a small business. Lazerbeak\u2019s garage became the merchandise warehouse; P.O.S\u2019 mom\u2019s basement became the webstore. A decade and fifty releases later, it\u2019s all properly official\u2014Doomtree is now a real, live label with international distribution\u2014but not that much has changed. Doomtree still partners with people who aren\u2019t jerks. If members can\u2019t find something they need, they make it themselves. Although each member has a career as a solo artist, every so often the whole crew convenes to make a collaborative record as a group.\nThe most recent Doomtree record is called All Hands. The title nods to the nautical rally cry, \u201cAll hands on deck,\u201d and the album stands as the most collaborative and cohesive project the crew has yet produced. New Noise Magazine called the record, \u201ctheir most immediately catchy work yet\u2026easily a career high.\u201d After an interview at this year\u2019s SXSW, Fast Company Magazine wrote, \u201ctheir beats are fiercely contemporary, and the five rappers\u2026are ferocious wordsmiths with forward-thinking rhymes.\u201d It was made by old friends who\u2019ve tuned their craft, both together and individually, for over a decade. And it shows. Both the catchiest and densest album in the group\u2019s catalog, All Hands adeptly walks a tightrope of immediately memorable hooks and in-depth lyricism that rewards repeated listens. The result is equally worthy of up-to-11 trunk-rattling drives as it is late-night headphone sessions.\nVisit their web site \u2013 Click Here!\nVisit them on Facebook \u2013 Click Here!",

Land tenure reform policy has been affected by many different types of decentralization. However, the literature on land tenure reform rarely explicitly addressed the implications of decentralization, and vice versa. This paper provides a review of how the issues of decentralization are linked to land tenure reform, in theory and practice. Both decentralization and land tenure reform each encompass a number of different, but related concepts and approaches. We begin with clarifying some key terms related to these different approaches, then look in more detail at contending perspectives on decentralization, and how these relate to the United Nations Development Programme's (UNDP) pillars of democratic governance. We then review the different types of land tenure reform in terms of the role of centralized and decentralized institutions, illustrating the strengths and weaknesses, gaps and challenges with experience from a range of developing countries. The final section turns to conclusions and policy recommendations, considering how decentralized approaches to land tenure reform can contribute to goals such as gender equity, social cohesion, human rights, and the identity of indigenous peoples.\nIFPRI Web link http://www.ifpri.org/publication/decentralization-pro-poor-land-policies-and-democratic-governance\nAdd tags for Decentralization, pro-poor land policies, and democratic governance\nPost a Comment for Decentralization, pro-poor land policies, and democratic governance",

        "raw_content": "Home IFPRI Publications Empowerment through technology\nEmpowerment through technology\nTitle Empowerment through technology\nSubtitle Gender dimensions of social capital build-up in Maharashtra, India\nAuthor Padmaja, Ravula\nAbstract This paper explores how and to what extent women and men have benefited from the build-up of social capital in technology uptake, and the role of women in this process. Using a case study on Groundnut Production Technology (GPT) in Maharashtra, India, a systematic documentation of the process by which farmers \u2013 both men and women - as well as the whole community became empowered through the build-up of social capital is presented. The focus of the paper is on collective action as a mechanism to stimulate gender-equitable change processes. Our evidence suggests that the technology uptake process was enhanced with the build up of social capital, whereby men and women from all class and caste groups came together for improving their livelihoods. Collective action was enhanced with the increased involvement and participation of women. Strong kinship ties were developed among diverse classes all over the village including landless tribal women, who formed the major labor force for this technology. The paper concludes that social networks played a crucial mediating role in the process of technology uptake. The build-up of social capital played an important role in influencing impacts from the technology because of the ways in which social networks and social relationships facilitated technology dissemination. Gender relations played a significant role in mediating the translation of economic benefits into well being of the individual, the family and community. Finally, it is suggested that further insights into the role of social networks and power relations in the village may be examined in greater detail by establishing the village network architecture, especially marginalized groups.\nSubject - keywords Empowerment\nSocial capital buildup\nIFPRI Web link http://www.ifpri.org/publication/empowerment-through-technology\nAdd tags for Empowerment through technology\nPost a Comment for Empowerment through technology",

The game is a turn-based card game between two opponents, using constructed decks of 30 cards along with a selected hero with a unique power. Players use their limited mana crystals to play abilities or summon minions to attack the opponent, with the goal of destroying the opponent\u2019s hero. Winning matches and completing quests earn in-game how To Make Money Fast In Hearthstone, rewards in the form of new cards, and other in-game prizes. In contrast to other games developed by Blizzard, Hearthstone was an experimental game developed by a smaller team based on the appreciation of collectible card games at the company.\nThe game was designed to avoid pitfalls of other digital collectible card games by eliminating any possible plays from an opponent during a player\u2019s turn and by replicating the feel of a physical card game within the game\u2019s user interface. As of November 2018, Blizzard has reported more than 100 million Hearthstone players. An example of gameplay in Hearthstone. Set within the Warcraft universe, Hearthstone is a digital-only, turn-based collectible card game which pits two opponents against each other. There are nine classes: Warrior, Shaman, Rogue, Paladin, Hunter, Druid, Warlock, Mage, and Priest. All cards cost a certain amount of \u201cmana\u201d, a budget each player must abide by which increases by one each turn with a maximum of ten. This invokes strategy as the player must plan ahead, taking into account what cards can and cannot be played. There are various game modes with the most prevalent being Standard and Wild.\nStandard mode only includes the Basic and Classic collections alongside the expansions from the last two years. Once an expansion rotates out of Standard, it can only be played in the Wild format. The Wild game mode allows for any card to be played. These two game modes are divided into Casual and Ranked modes. Standard format, and the distribution of cards within that set. Initially, Blizzard introduced an alternating series of Expansions and Adventures, with roughly three new sets released each year.\nExpansions are new card sets, containing between 100-200 new cards, that become available to buy or win, as well as introducing new mechanics to the gameplay. Blizzard has adopted a \u201cYear\u201d moniker to identify when expansions rotate and retire from Standard format. Blizzard retired the Curse of Naxxramas and Goblins vs. Blizzard retired the Blackrock Mountain, The Grand Tournament and League of Explorers sets. Nine cards originally in Classic were moved to the Hall of Fame set that is not playable in Standard. Four Reward cards were originally included and given to players on completing certain tasks. Year of the Mammoth, all Reward cards were moved into the Hall of Fame set. The Hall of Fame set consists of cards that have been rotated out of the Classic set. Because of the sporadic additions to the set, there are no definite release or removal dates.\nDevelopment of Hearthstone at Blizzard was inspired by two directions, according to developer Eric Dodds: a desire for Blizzard to develop something more experimental with a smaller team in contrast to their larger projects, and the shared love of collectible card games throughout the company. Of the game types they explored, Team 5 soon focused on the collectible card game approach, given that many on the team and in Blizzard had played such games since their introduction. After about a year of starting development, the team had produced an Adobe Flash prototype of the game that offered the core card game mechanics and the unique heroes. Further development on the game\u2019s user interface began using the principle that the game needed to be both accessible and charming, being able to draw in new players and to be clear how to play the game. From the beginning, the game was designed to be played solely online and to mimic the feel of physical cards to make it more accessible to new players. Dodds found that past attempts to digitize physical card games by other companies left areas they felt were lacking, and wanted to improve on that experience. Other aspects of the game\u2019s interface were set to replicate the feel of a physical game being watched by an audience: Hearthstone starts with the player opening a box, during gameplay the cards waver and move while in their hand, and cards when played slam down on the board.\nHow To Make Money Fast In Hearthstone Expert Advice\nHearthstone Expansion Announcement, catacombs trailer pays loving tribute to 80s Henson films\u201d.

The game\u2019s name, Hearthstone, was meant to imply to a close gathering of friends by a hearth, a goal of what they want players to feel. The beta testing periods were used to evaluate the game\u2019s balance, adjusting cards found to be too powerful or too weak, and making sure no single hero or deck type dominated the game. Blizzard provides regular bug fixes, updates, and expansions for Hearthstone.\nHamilton Chu, the former executive producer for Hearthstone, stated that Blizzard intends to support the game for ten to twenty years. The principle means that additional cards have been introduced to the game are through either themed Expansions or Adventures. Development of the themes and mechanics for each Expansion and Adventure are often based on the current atmosphere around the Hearthstone community, according to senior designer Mike Donais. In addition to new cards and mechanics, Blizzard has also worked to add new features to Hearthstone itself.\nHow To Make Money Fast In Hearthstone Generally this\u2026\nThe introduction of the Standard vs. Brode, as new cards were introduced to the game, they recognized that new players would start to find the game inaccessible, while adjusting the balance of the meta-game of which cards from previous expansions had proven over- or underused.

By the end of March 2014, the game had more than 10 million player accounts registered worldwide.\nTo mark the release of Hearthstone, Blizzard released the Hearthsteed mount for World of Warcraft players that is obtained by winning three games in Arena or Play mode.

To promote the Journey to Un\u2019Goro set, Blizzard made a web series called \u201cWonders Of Un\u2019Goro\u201d featuring an adventurer exploring the area.\nBefore releasing the Knights of the Frozen Throne set, Blizzard worked with Dark Horse Comics to publish a three issue comic book series based on the set\u2019s Death Knight theme. Catacombs set, Blizzard released \u201cThe Light Candle\u201d, a live-action short spoofing films from Jim Henson of the 1980s while its characters are exploring a dungeon. Thanks to the designers\u2019 focus on accessibility and fast-paced gameplay, Hearthstone has been the focus of a number of tournaments. The tournament featured players from each of the game\u2019s four regions, with each region holding its own regional qualifying tournament. The championship was moved to January to better accommodate the timing for Standard mode\u2019s yearly rotation.\nHeartstone is part of electronic sport demonstration event in 2017 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games held in Turkmenistan.

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft received \u201cuniversal acclaim\u201d on iOS and \u201cgenerally favorable\u201d reviews for PC, according to review aggregator Metacritic.\nThe game was praised for its simplicity, gameplay pace, and attention to detail along with being free-to-play, while the lack of actual card trading between players and any form of tournament mode was pointed out as the major shortcomings. Later Hearthstone card expansions have also been well received. Commentators have noted that Hearthstone can suffer from \u201cpay to win\u201d mechanics, that those that invest monetarily into the game to get new cards and packs have generally a better chance of winning, though it is possible to be successful without spending money.

        "raw_content": "Is Vladimir Putin now the most successful leader in the world? | Eurasia Diary - ednews.net\nIs Vladimir Putin now the most successful leader in the world?\nVladimir Putin without a doubt appears to be the most successful leader in the world today. With the weakest of hands, an economy not much larger than that of Spain, and a gross domestic product per capita several thousand dollars smaller than Malaysia, he has asserted massive negative influence over the globalized world.\nBut with his dual obsession on the importance of buffer states such as Ukraine and the disruption of the West, Putin ignores what should be his greatest concern, which is the mirror held up to it by China. The successes in this neighboring country, compared to the dragging Russian economy, is a reflection on his leadership that will not be ignored forever by its citizens and elites. In 1905, Russia was in a similar situation. Japan, which Moscow viewed as an inferior Asian country, defeated Russia. The powerful victory of Japan over a Russia isolated in its own belief system shocked all levels of Russian society. It fermented a snowballing of disbelief in the legitimacy of the czar leading all to the revolution.\nNow a modern Asian nation is again demonstrating that something is dramatically wrong within Russia. China, the former student of Russia in autocracy, is not only a winner in the game of globalization, it is now trying to master the difficult steps of reordering its economy to succeed in a new technological generation. Strikingly, Putin does not seem to care. He does not appear to understand that Ukraine is the least of his problems. To contrast the approaches of Russia and China to globalization, to capitalism, and even to claims on territories that would \u201cfall under their civilizations\u201d is a study in successful leadership versus failed leadership.\nFrom the beginning of their experiments with capitalism, these two former giants of communist tyranny acted differently, with China acting more wisely. When the Soviet Union collapsed, Russia followed the \u201cshock\u201d theory, switching immediately from a communism to a mostly capitalist economy, an approach that led to anarchy. Under Deng Xiaoping, China followed a more judicious approach, experimenting with capitalist reforms in various zones before integrating them throughout the country.\nMore was going on than just how each country approached capitalism. When Deng began his reforms, the world was just moving into its current form of globalization. His reforms added the key component of Chinese capital in the form of millions of cheap factory workers, caffeinating globalization beyond any reality known up until that time. Russia did not add anything to the newly connected world. Its exports, raw materials and energy commodities that can be sold without any understanding of marketing or customer satisfaction, basically continued to be what they were under the Soviets. While energy generates huge cash flows, the industry can be controlled by a few and remain free from a competitive need to change and improve.\nChinese leadership also demonstrated extraordinary awareness when they agreed to reforms to join the World Trade Organization in 2001. These reforms enabled China to become the superstar of globalization. The leadership took a huge risk relaxing thousands of tariffs and other trade barriers. Within Chinese ruling circles, some feared that by reducing these tariffs, foreign competition would decimate outdated state enterprises, which partly did happen, but the risk was worth it. In the years that followed, China enjoyed one of the best decades in economic history.\nRussia, on the other hand, finally joined the World Trade Organization in 2012, while Dmitry Medvedev was president after years of drawn out negotiations. The hesitancy on this move represented the myopic Russian nationalist view that globalization threatened to replace existing Russian industries with new Western enterprises. Globalization was seen not as a way to lift the Russian economy, the way that it was seen through the lens in China, but rather as a means for the West to invade Moscow using international business weapons.\nOf course, from the position of the Russian oligarchy, why rush to force drastic reforms on your top industry when the main export is energy? But the corollary to this argument was that Russia might not otherwise diversify its exports and be anything more than a commodity supplier unless its industry was allowed to compete in the world and learn from that.\nFinally there is the issue of territories, which has little to do with globalization but a lot to do with how secure leadership is, as well as the nature of the culture they lead. Since the 1970s, especially in dealing with Taiwan and Hong Kong, China has understood that it has time on its hands. The leadership realizes that even Taiwan, which for decades directly challenged the legitimacy of the government in Beijing, is not its singular problem. Contrast this with how Russia has handled Ukraine.\nMoreover, while both countries do not have many friends, Russia has satellites and clients, while China has business relations, which is a major difference. Putin has been rightfully accused of following a 19th century foreign policy, but that is a symptom, not a problem. His problem is that Russia has remained a 19th century market. All his fears about the West are truly illusionary compared to the reality of the economic achievements of his Asian neighbor.",

        "raw_content": "Eerily Quiet on the Market Front\nWhile the U.S. stock market tests new highs, and valuations keep rising farther above long-term averages, you may not have noticed something very odd about our current bull market. The last six and a half years have set a record for lowest market volatility, and the past 299 trading days, starting in November of 2016, has set an even bigger non-volatility record. The markets have been eerily quiet for longer than they ever have been before.\nTo see what this means, look at the first chart, which shows the losses (aka \u201cdrawdowns\u201d in professional investorspeak) for stock market investors since January 1, 2011. The blue spaces represent market pullbacks\u2014a euphemism for temporary losses\u2014that a 60/40 (U.S. stocks/U.S. bonds) has experienced over the last six years. Two things jump out at you; first, investors in this very basic portfolio haven\u2019t experienced portfolio losses greater than 5% since September of 2011\u2014more than six years ago. Even spookier is the back end of the chart, which shows essentially zero drawdowns since the end of last January.\nThe second chart illustrates the longest time periods when the markets remained within 3% of an all-time high, which basically means that there were gains without a significant downturn. The previous record, 241 trading days, was set between late January 1995 and early January 1996, and the chart shows other records going back to 1961. The longest streak, which is still ongoing, is the time period since November 7, 2016.\nWhat does this mean? It\u2019s impossible to predict the future based on this kind of data, but it does indicate that the U.S. investment markets have been behaving strangely, and it suggests that we are long overdue for at least a moderate adjustment. When that will come remains a bit of a mystery, so let\u2019s celebrate our good fortune up to now, and recognize that it won\u2019t last forever!",

Over the past 24 hours, California has been hit by 46 earthquakes. That is approximately twice the normal daily number, and much of the shaking has taken place in the southern part of the state. In recent weeks I have been writing repeatedly about the alarming seismic activity that we have been seeing along the west coast, and many believe that the potential for a megaquake is significantly higher than normal right now. Unfortunately, most residents of California are not paying any attention to what is going on at all, and so if there is a major event they will be completely blindsided by it.

Is Something Happening To The Earth\u2019s Crust?\nWhere are all of these giant sinkholes coming from? Of course there have always been sinkholes, but over the past few years it seems like both the severity and the number of giant sinkholes has been increasing dramatically. So exactly why are so many giant sinkholes appearing all over America all of a sudden? Is something happening to the earth\u2019s crust, or is there some other explanation? The \u201cexperts\u201d are blaming this epidemic of sinkholes on things like loose soil, acidic groundwater, new construction, leaky water pipes, coal mines, fracking, long periods of drought followed by rain, and depletion of underground aquifers, but do they really understand what is going on? On Thursday, a 37-year-old man named Jeffrey Bush living near Tampa, Florida died when the earth underneath his home suddenly opened up and swallowed him alive. His brother tried to help him when he heard Jeffrey screaming, but it was too late. The entire bedroom was sucked deep into the earth and the home had to be rapidly abandoned. Now authorities are admitting that he will probably never be found. So is this type of thing really \u201cnormal\u201d? It would be one thing if this was just an isolated incident, but the truth is that giant sinkholes have been appearing with increasing frequency all over the planet lately. Could this be an indication that major earth changes are on the way?

Those earthquakes were reportedly felt more than 1,000 miles away. Scientists assure us that one day we will once again see very powerful earthquakes along the New Madrid fault. It is only a question of when it will happen. Today, the New Madrid fault zone covers portions of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi. However, a major earthquake of magnitude-8.0 or greater would likely have a dramatic effect all the way from the Great Lakes all the way down to the Gulf of Mexico. When most Americans speak of the \u201cbig one\u201d, they think of what may happen along the coast of California someday, but the truth is that a New Madrid earthquake could potentially do far more damage. So is there evidence that the New Madrid fault zone is waking up? Yes, there is. According to Bloomberg, there has been \u201ca sixfold increase in the number of earthquakes that have shaken the central part of the U.S. from 2000 to 2011\u201d. Much of that increase is being blamed on human activity such as mining, drilling and fracking. So could human activity aggravate the fault zone so much that it could set off a truly history-making earthquake at some point? Well, the potential is certainly there. That is why so many people are so concerned about the monster sinkholes that have appeared in the region in recent months. For example, a massive sinkhole down in Louisiana is now over 8 acres in size and it has forced hundreds of people to flee from their homes. You can see video of the Louisiana sinkhole right here. Over in Ohio, a giant sinkhole has suddenly formed that is more than 30 feet deep and that is the size of four football fields. That sinkhole caused part of State Route 516 to collapse and authorities say that it will likely be closed for many months. You can see video of the gigantic sinkhole in Ohio right here. Are these monster sinkholes an indication that major earth changes are coming along the New Madrid fault? Has reckless human activity awoken a sleeping giant that we should never have messed with?

In our endeavor to understand reality we are somewhat like a man trying to understand the mechanism of a closed watch. He sees the face and the moving hands, even hears its ticking, but he has no way to open the case. If he is ingenious he may form some picture of a mechanism which could be responsible for all of the things he observes, but he may never be quite sure his picture is the only one which could explain his observations. He will never be able to compare his picture with the real mechanism and he cannot even imagine the possibility or the meaning of such a comparison. But he certainly believes that, as his knowledge increases, his picture of reality will become simpler and simpler and will explain a wider and wider range of his sensuous impressions. He may also believe in the existence of the ideal limit of knowledge and that it is approached by the human mind. He may call this ideal limit the objective truth.\n\u2014 Albert Einstein and Leopold Infeld in The Evolution of Physics: From Early Concepts to Relativity and Quanta, (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1966), p. 31.

This era is characterized, on the one hand, by the rising aspirations and expectations of millions of people living in the Third World and, on the other. by the emergence of new forms of domination and colonialism. The recent advances in the field of science and technology have led to an entirely new kind of dispensation which is going to change relations among nations and peoples. The information revolution has also brought about unprecedented transformations, changing the very social, cultural, economic and political fabric of the world.\nRevolution in science and technology and the intensifying struggle on major international issues have brought about a colossal increase in the role played by the information media in international relations. The intensifying ideological struggle throughout the world reflects the rapidly growing role of the modem means of communication which have become key instruments of ideological manipulation in the new era. All political streams, all groups of states, individual countries and their organized forces are busy mobilizing their resources to expand and improve the information systems at their disposal.\nIt is hardly surprising that, with the increase in international news flow, we find the world population covered by a blanket of propaganda. There is positive correlation between the total mass media content and the total propaganda outpouring. Even a casual observer of the media cannot fail to notice that man\u2019s mind is being subjected to a ceaseless and clever bombardment of messages. These messages are calculated to influence and control. Information is treated as a weapon of low-intensity warfare \u2013people\u2019s perception of a situation derives man from the conscious and the rational to the irrational and the obscure. Never before in history have the basic educational and cultural needs of humanity been so widely appreciated. But while the resources to satisfy these requirements we physically available, they are directed to other ends.\nA small group of transnational and mostly American companies control approximately 80 per cent of the dailies of industrial and developing capitalist countries as well as 90 per cent of radio and 95 per cent of television stations. On a global scale, the USA controls 60 per cent of the international market of television programmes while American television broadcasts only one per cent of foreign programmes. The four largest Western news agencies\u2014UPI, AP, Retures and Agency France-Press\u2014supply news to 140 countries of the world, totaling more than 50 million words a day. They control over 90 per cent of international news flow. The contents of their coverage project a Western vision of the world.\nData concerning the scale of the United States\u2019 ideological expansion into foreign countries are in sharp contrast to the figures of the import of cultural products and information from abroad by the United States itself. According to available data, not more than 3 per cent of the information disseminated inside that country is derived from foreign sources. An analysis of the news items which Western radio stations and news agencies send to the developing countries today shows that 65 per cent of the information is related to the USA and only 8-10 per cent is devoted to the developing countries.\nWhat is more, the coverage given to the developing countries is largely determined by its impact on the political and economic interests of the West. The information about these states is generally sensational and scandalous and often prejudicial to the interests of the developing countries. At the same time, there is hardly anything relating to economic and social problems.\nThe advance in communication has created an entirely new situation where it is not so much the consumers as the producers who decide what the market \u201crequirements\u201d can be created by distorting priorities of a society. The issue as to who decides research and development policies and priorities has to be critically questioned and analyzed\u2014who decides, for what, for whom, on whose terms, on what basis, with what principles and with what effects?\nA lot is being said and written about the so-called information society into which some of the highly developed countries are poised to enter. The main feature of the transition is the increase relevance of resource called information. In information society this resource is basic to all processes. The processing of information is seen to be major contributing factor to the economic developments of societies.\nThe information society, as the name suggests, can at least if not at best be expected to keep citizens better informed. What is actually happening is a rapid growth of misinformation and disinformation. Witness Donna Demac\u2019s book Keeping America Uniformed or Henry Porter\u2019s Lies Damned Lies. The powerful resource\u2014information\u2014is controlled by and managed by the same world system which is unjust and unfair.\nThe key questions here are: What is the image of other countries and regions as received through the news and what other factors shape the quality and quantity of flow? The mainstream of news is \u2018hard news\u2019 oriented: politics and catastrophes get more attention than culture or social processes, \u201celite countries\u201d and \u2018elite personalities\u201d are better covered than non-elites. The uniformity of results is partly a reflection of the uniform methods used. But there is no reason to doubt the main lire of the results. What is surprising is that the uniform results have not encouraged researchers to study more the concepts of news and news criteria as such. The terms on which news selection is made are developed by the dominant news transmission structures.\nWhat is less apparent, though no less real, are negative characteristics of the media imagery that is being introduced in poorer communities across the globe. Whereas public service broadcasting is hardly visible, a tidal wave of commercial material is flowing over the earth. Everywhere local culture is facing submersion from the mass produced outpouring of commercial broadcasting. Television in the United States is tailored almost exclusively to fit the market needs of consumer goods producers who sponsor and finance the programming. The programme material is assigned especially, to secure and hold mass audience in thrall to the delight of consumerdom.\nThe basic role of the media is to inform and develop understanding of other nation\u2019s political, economic and social systems, their histories, their leadership and simply what their people are like. Preferably, this understanding should be as accurate and complete as possible. But the images of people and nations as projected by the dominant Western media are quite contrary. Their coverage of the Third World countries is generally confined to coups disasters and wars.\nAgainst this background, it has become very important that one sees beyond the information images the media has created. In most of the cases, these images are a distortion of reality. In a historical process, news values and selection norms are shaped to cater to news market needs as they are perceived by the dominant media. The communication revolution has led to a situation in which a person may be over-informed about certain subjects which do not conform with his information needs and at the same time, he is kept in the dark about a number of other issues on which he requires to be informed.\nThe biggest challenge is to evaluate images created by media and consequently chalk out a strategy to change these images by creating alternative information packages.",

        "raw_content": "To Understand Fake College Diploma Education\nEducation is one of mankind's greatest accomplishments. The enlightenment of a society's children, giving them the tools by which to succeed and grow, is a core element of any developed society. The term \"education\" comes from the Latin word \"educare,\" which means \"to raise, train, or bring up.\" There is also a lovely linguistic myth about the origins of the word; many people believe that the word \"education\" comes from the Latin \"educere,\" which means \"to lead out or lead forth,\" with the idea that education leads people out of the darkness of ignorance.\nIn ancient times, when life revolved around the clan, the family, the tribe, and the conflict with other tribes, instruction primarily consisted of teaching children the skills needed for survival - how to hunt, how to plant, how to make tools and weapons. The earliest forms of formalized education revolved around religion and fake university diploma were also involved, because instruction was necessary in the words and forms of rituals to preserve them and pass them down from generation to generation. Hence the earliest educators were priest, rabbis, religious leaders.\nIt was in ancient Greece that society began to see the education of youth as a societal concern, rather than just a family or religious matter. The Greeks were the first to develop education as a science.\nAlthough every culture, no matter how primitive, practices some basic form of education, teaching the history and mythology of the culture and the basic skills needed for survival, in most societies education begins with literacy - teaching people to read and write. Mathematics is the other competency that is considered basic - the ability to count and add. Developed societies encourage more formal schooling that teaches these plus science, history, and other more sophisticated knowledge of online college degree.\nEducational systems today revolve around schooling that follows a curriculum, usually established by a society's government and geared to the skills and knowledge felt to be necessary for the society's members to thrive, contribute, and compete in the world. One of the standards for a developed country is how many of its citizens can read and write.\nWe often read about how American students compare with the students in other countries in their knowledge of geography or their skills in mathematics. As society becomes more technologically oriented, education plays a key role in producing a population that can handle the jobs needed to develop new technologies.\nThere are many debates in our society today about who should be responsible for education and how standards can be established and measured. Many feel that alternatives to public education are needed and want the government to pay for education alternatives. Many educators are unhappy with the emphasis on standardized testing in schools that is used to help judge student's levels of competency while others say that without broad standards it is impossible to compare achievement. While the states have great autonomy in setting their own schools' policies and rules to buy fake college diploma, the Federal government is responsible for seeing that students all across the country have equal opportunities to be educated in order to be successful in life.\nMany Paths to a Fake Diploma in College\nThere's no getting around the fact that a high school diploma is important for job success. High school dropouts who never earn a diploma are more likely to be unemployed than a high school graduate, and earn hundreds of dollars less each week. In 2002, high school graduates earned $717 a month more than people without high school diplomas, and that gap has undoubtedly grown wider in the last few years. Not having a high school diploma can also be a matter of self esteem - if you feel self-conscious about your lack of formal education, you may not put yourself forward as confidently at work, and that can also affect your upward mobility.\nHowever, if you haven't received a fake diploma, it's never too late. Even though adults aren't allowed to go back to class in the local high school alongside the teenagers, you can still earn a diploma, regardless of age. You can find a program that will accommodate your work schedule and family life, although you will have to make sacrifices to find the time to study for a fake university degree.\nLocal adult education programs - often held in the local high school or community center at night - may offer fake high school diplomas. More commonly, they may offer preparatory classes for the GED. This is the first step to examine if you want a high school diploma, as it is usually free or low-cost. Contact your local department of education, or check your state's official website for links to educational information.\nThe Internet has opened many doors to students, and one is the availability of online high schools that provide classes and issue diplomas. The advantage of online high schools is that they have extremely flexible schedules you can tailor to fit your own life. A good online high school offers courses online, with access to faculty members, testing at your own pace, and technical support. Many also save you the cost of textbooks, as all class materials are available online (you can print them out as desired). If your local or state board of education cannot point you to specific online high school programs, an Internet search for \"online high school\" or \"virtual fake college\" should show you plenty of options such as fake diploma mills.\nOnline high schools can also help keep a young person from dropping out entirely. Students who feel the need to work rather than attend school due to family financial pressures, or who do not flourish in a classroom setting, may find that virtual high school online, via the Internet, is their route to a diploma. The Internet is a gateway to fulfilling your dream of a high school diploma. If your career opportunities have been limited by your lack of education, consider going to an online high school, no matter what your age.",

She currently serves as Program Manager in the Entrepreneurial Musicianship Department at the New England Conservatory, helping to equip young artists with the skills they need to build fulfilling musical lives.

        "raw_content": "As I was looking through the pictures I\u2019ve taken while charting my progress with shrinking my fibroids over the last few years, I realized that outside of fasting, I saw the best results while using apple cider vinegar and baking soda daily. I know I previously said that I didn\u2019t think this method really worked; but I think I should reconsider. I believe that because the fibroids grew back to their usual size I concluded that the remedy did not work when in fact it was that I did not keep up with the treatment and I did not change my lifestyle in any way once I stopped the treatment. So of course the fibroids grew back. It wasn\u2019t like I had gotten rid of them. There\u2019s no way to do that except by removal of the uterus. The thing is, you can\u2019t stop the treatment once the fibroids shrink down enough for you.\nObviously my best results came via fasting; but I don\u2019t know that I can or that I want to keep fasting all the time. Right now I am struggling to get through my most recent fast. I find that the fasts are having to be done too frequently. I wrote in another post about my concerns that fasting is having an adverse effect on my metabolism. I think it is also becoming less effective as a fibroid shrinking remedy. My stomach is smaller after 12 days than it was when I started the fast but not by very much. I will have to extend the fast if I want to try to get back to where I was a year ago; but to extend the fast by another 5 days is to lose more weight; and while I won\u2019t pretend like it\u2019s such a bad thing that I\u2019ve managed to get off the few extra pounds I put on over the long and dreadful winter, I think I\u2019m good as far as weight goes. I don\u2019t think I need to get any smaller. I\u2019m not a teenager or even in my twenties and once you\u2019re past a certain age you don\u2019t want to get too skinny because you just look hard and beaten down and often older than your actual age.\nSo for me the ideal situation would be to find a remedy that works without me having to fast; and my photos seem to be telling me that apple cider vinegar with baking soda did work for me. I\u2019m thinking maybe once I complete my fast I will start using that remedy again. I will continue with the DIM supplements also because that has seemed to help in other areas even if it has not helped to shrink the fibroids; and I will make a more concerted effort to pay attention to what I eat, how I treat myself, how I manage stress and all the things that keep my life in a state of chaos.\nI have to admit that I am feeling a lot better since I started my fast than I had been feeling. I am hoping I can make it to 21 days; but I\u2019ll settle for 14. I have 2 days to go to make it to Day 14. Then I will begin a new cycle of trying to shrink my fibroids naturally because the more I think about it the more panicked I become at the thought of getting cut open and having a part of me removed. I know I said I am ready to work on overcoming my fears; but I don\u2019t think I want to make getting the courage to undergo a hysterectomy my first challenge. So I\u2019ll see if I can get my stomach down a second time around using the apple cider vinegar and baking soda remedy in conjunction with DIM supplements and any other supplements I think might be useful, proper diet, and a commitment to mental, emotional and physical wellness.\nDid it work? Fibroids shrink?\nHi very curious about your results any updares\nDoes it shrink down\nPls tell me about the fasting. Tnx.\nPls tell me about the fasting.",

In the twenty-five years since TFANA was founded, the company has never had a permanent home, relying on the availability of a variety of off-Broadway venues. As these theatres became increasingly scarce, TFANA committed to construct a new theatre that would be their permanent home. The new theater will include: a 299-seat auditorium with flexible seating arrangements to suit the round, thrust, and proscenium stages; rehearsal space that can serve as a stand-alone black box theatre; and support spaces including offices and a cafe.\nIn addition to providing all of the program spaces and the flexibility that TFANA needs to produce classical works, the theatre will also provide a new home for TFANA's educational programs, which include the largest curriculum in New York City for teaching school children about Shakespeare.\nJonathan Rose Companies was engaged by TFANA to locate and assess sites for a permanent home. A site was selected in Brooklyn as part of the Brooklyn Academy of Music Local Development Corporation (BAM LDC). Jonathan Rose Companies has managed the team selection for the project and continues to bring the acquisition and City funding negotiations to closure. The firm is currently managing the design process in partnership with EDC with a scheduled start of construction in 2011.\nThe building is designed to LEED Silver standards and incorporates many innovative mechanical and material elements to meet this goal within the program and project budget.\n\u201cThe idea of a 299-seat theater with a totally flexible configuration, with this kind of height and dimensions and acoustics, hits a sweet spot for a lot of directors and artists...You had a period whe\u201d\nCommisioner Kate D.

        "raw_content": "Siren 2 Maniacs - The Place Where Siren 2 Was Born\n01 - The desk of Director Toyama, who oversaw the overall project, seems quite tidy in comparison to the other team members'. The PVC figures on the desk tell of his hobbies, Mr. Toyama being a tokusatsu fan.\n02 - Sci-fi, the occult, mythology... These piles of books show each of the things Ms. Sato is interested in.\n03 - The area where lots of photos were taken looks like a film studio.\n04 - A supply of mineral water at Mr. Takahashi's desk.\n05 - A rack containing things like costumes that were worn during shooting.\nWhen you imagine what a game development office looks like, you may imagine an area containing dev PCs and piled high with data. Indeed, the place where Siren 2 was made is full of development machines, at the forefront of game development. However, when you take a look around, you realise that something is quite different from the normal game development environment. This is because it is full of items, like costumes and props, like the ones you would normally see where a movie or TV show is being made. This difference is created by the team's unique method of using actors and props to take as many photos as possible, then create CG based on the photograph data, as opposed to the standard method of making everything in the game from scratching using CG. From the bloodstained Shibito clothing to the familiar outfits worn by each main character, the belts, shoes and other items, everything is stored in racks, just like the development area at a TV station.\nUnlike normal game creation, where most of the work is done in front of screens, the job of Siren 2's development team was quite active, including such things as photography and recording of the actors playing each character, and travelling the country to do on-site research. You can also see the personality and commitment of each staff member from what is on their desks. The desk of the director, Mr. Toyama, is simple and tidy, perhaps because he, as a heavy mobile user, works on his favourite W-ZERO3 [es]. On the other hand, the desk of Ms. Sato, in charge of background and scenario, is covered with books used for research. The mix of Junji Ito and Daijiro Morohoshi's comics, along with for some reason Heinlein's sci-fi novel \"The Door into Summer,\" is actually the exact same state as it was in when we were there to do research for Siren Maniacs. In a way it's befitting of Ms. Sato, who is known for being a cat-lover. On head art director Mr. Takahashi's dead, besides a photobook of ruins, are DVDs such as \"Mulholland Drive\" (David Lynch) and \"Suspiria\" (Dario Argento). Maybe he was using them for reference for the art?\n\"Haikyo no Arukikata: Exploration\"\nThis book, also shown in photo #4, was written by Jun Kurihara, a famous name in the world of exploring old ruins. Siren 2's development team were in contact with him, and he joined them for on-site research. The photo on the book's cover is of the famous \"Hell Steps\" on Gunkanjima. It was also used as a concept image for Siren 2.",

        "raw_content": "Leviathan: On Technocrats, Accountability and Creative Fabrication\nThe message was urgent. It said the General Education Program Assessment results absolutely had to be submitted by the end of the month. It was imperative that those of us who had not yet reported our program\u2019s results do so immediately. Or so the message said.\nSo I spent the greater part of this morning trying to figure out what I still needed to do to submit the results of the Humanistic Traditions I and II courses for last academic year. I have reported these results for seven years now. It did not take me long to figure out why I had not already reported the results and why I find it increasingly onerous to be charged with this little technocratic nightmare.\nThe Ever Expanding Job Description\nSeven years ago when this program began, I was a visiting instructor in the Philosophy Department. My primary job duties at that time were to teach four courses a semester wherever I was needed. Because I am able to teach in three of our disciplines \u2013 Humanities, Religious Studies and the Philosophy of Law course \u2013 I generally have at least three if not four preparations for courses which range widely in content and methodology. As an example, yesterday I left my Latin American Humanities course where we had been talking about Cortez and the conquest to scurry across the campus to meet my Philosophy of Law course where we were discussing Kohlberg\u2019s stages of moral reason developmental model. While this wide a range of ideas and preparations can be exhausting (and confusing \u2013like remembering which books and student papers you need to have with you enroute to classes which inevitably meet across the campus) it is also intellectually stimulating and prevents boredom. This was what I was hired to do nine years ago. And on the dwindling number of good days I still encounter, it\u2019s still a job I love.\nIn the intervening years, my job duties have grown. I have become a regular on the Honors College faculty and among the Honors in the Majors thesis committee members, chairing five such theses projects myself. I have taken on the prelaw advising for the College of Arts and Humanities for which I have been given a course release once a year (though my advising duties are year round and the release is now in question). I sit on two different curricula committees and over the past two years have sat on two search committees for new faculty members and chaired yet another. None of these duties were part of my contract as a non-tenure track instructor. And most I have at least willingly gone along with under the rubric of being a team player.\nOf all of these additional, non-paid duties, the one which I have come to dislike the most is the GEP Assessment program. At a basic level, it is little more than the muddled micromanagement at the university level under the banner of \u201caccountability\u201d that has reduced the once noble profession of public school teaching to a technocratic nightmare driven by standardized testing. It operates out of the unsupported (and I suspect unsupportable) assumption that without some kind of empirical data that students are learning, we must assume they aren\u2019t. The burden thus is upon departments to demonstrate learning is occurring by creating instruments which produce data which allows technocrats and their corporate overlords in Tallahassee and the board rooms beyond to rest easy at night. Those same wonderful people who brought us No Child Left Behind in which about 1/3 of all America\u2019s children were consistently left behind without a high school diploma now have come to a university near you.\nIn the beginning of the program, the goal was to create learning outcomes and measurements - educational technocratese for data producing instruments. The Philosophy Department did not then and has never had a standard set of ideas which supposedly marked a bottom line in terms of student learning. The content and pedagogy of courses were left to instructors with graduate degrees hired to decide for themselves what and how to teach under the rubric of intellectual freedom. Hence the emphasis in Class A might well be different from that in Class B and indeed such might be expectable from a course which undertakes to examine all of the history of the world through the lens of the arts, religion and philosophy. Without a standard curriculum and pedagogy, measurement of all courses by the same artificial standard tells us little of value.\nThough I am poorly trained to be a technocrat and have little inclination to work as such, with the help of the department chair, I created the original assessments for our two humanities courses. We identified three sets of broad learning outcomes (e.g., \u201cTo demonstrate knowledge of the meanings of an artwork, performance, or text in diverse aesthetic, historical and cultural contexts\u201d) which would then be tested for outcomes. We devised two measures for this process. The first was a pre- and post-test of 10 identified concepts which students were to take at the beginning and end of each semester. The idea was that students would correctly identify more of the concepts on the post-test than the pre-test. The tests were placed on a webcourses site so students could access them easily. The 10 concepts were derived by asking instructors to name three concepts they thought were essential in their courses, tallying the top ten concepts and then creating a multiple choice question to test each concept. The second measure was to create embedded questions from the concepts we had identified and from which instructors were requested to create questions testing the concept embedded in another written assignment (e.g., exam, essay).\nThat was seven years ago. As much of a pain as it had been in the beginning, it seemed as if this new assessment process might be relatively painless. Little did we know then what lay ahead.\nA Dinosaur Egg Hatches\nOver the years, student participation in the pre-test + post-test process has averaged about 35% per semester. While instructors can urge students to take the assessments, it is ultimately up to students who have been taught that they are consumers operating out of the mantra of \u201cWhat\u2019s in it for me?\u201d to actually do so. That the results are this high probably speaks more to the slightly coercive tactics of classes like my own which assign 5 points participation credit to simply taking the assessments than anything else. As for the embedded questions, over the 13 semesters I have reported results, exactly five instructors have ever reported results. To put this into perspective, we generally offer up to 15 sections of each class every semester.\nWere this the only challenge of this process, I would probably just chalk it up to yet another hair-brained micromanagement plan imposed upon already overworked instructors under the rubric of \u201caccountability.\u201d It\u2019s always amusing to hear the people who are most adamant about not trusting public servants who work in government while insisting upon giving absolutely free rein to the greed driven servants of profit in the private sector where transparency is unheard of. It\u2019s also amusing to hear talk about educators needing to be accountable to a public whose conduct has been the paragon of social irresponsibility \u2013 defunding public education while imposing ever more burdens upon those actual public servants who continue to labor in the profession despite all of this.\nA couple of years ago the then-director of the GEP Assessment program asserted that students were not taking the pre- and post-test because they had no \u201cbuy-in,\u201d i.e., there was no incentive for them to take the tests without somehow benefitting their grades. This kind of thinking is expectable in an educational system that regularly confuses its purpose with that of just another provider of consumer goods and services. But the more serious problem with the Assessment program as I see it is that there has never been any buy in on the part of those expected to administer the process itself.\nThe reality is that no one has ever adequately explained why this process is necessary in the first place. While instructors have repeatedly been told that this is somehow beneficial for their teaching, no real demonstration of that benefit has ever been provided. Hence, to most instructors it appears as little more than one more annoying burden on an already poorly paid and overly demanding job. When pressed on this, administrators of the program often seek to reverse their required burden of proof and place it on the instructor: \u201cDon\u2019t you want to improve your teaching? Don\u2019t you think you could improve?\u201d Of course, without any demonstration that such teaching needs improvement and that this technocratic process can somehow provide valuable insights into the same, why would any reasonable instructor buy-in?\nAs GEP Assessments coordinator for the humanities courses, it has been my job to procure and report the results of the pre- and post-tests and the embedded questions each year. As a result I regularly find myself in the unpleasant position of being in the middle between technocrats demanding increasingly complicated results on the one hand and colleagues resisting the assessment process on the other. And if that were the only problem, it would probably be bearable. But over the last seven years, the process has taken on a life of its own. All of that came to a head this morning as I attempted to submit the urgently desired results.\nThe original reporting process contained three measures and corresponding outcomes and six sets of drop down fill-in-the-blank boxes allowing for results to be recorded. This was a rather straight forward way of reporting the findings of the assessments. The 2011 version I encountered this morning has grown into a leviathan. The six drop down boxes has now expanded to 26 sets of multiple choice inquiries with boxes which must be checked, each box in turn requiring a drop down box for thenarrative explanation of the answer provided.\nThe tenor of the current reporting process is indicated at the beginning of the form: \u201cWe strongly recommend not copying directly from Microsoft Word or Excel to the rich text boxes as the text being copied may contain html and/or xml code which may hinder how the document is viewed. We suggest to first paste the text to notepad, then copy the text from notepad to the rich text box.\u201d The notion that the technocrats operating the assessment process might actually provide a user friendly system \u2013 indeed, a particularly useable system at all - to its unpaid servants seems not to have occurred to them. From the very beginning, the burden is on the instructor.\nThat tenor is reflected in the content of the form. A number of the boxes contain questions that appear to have no connection to the courses whose results are being reported but require answers nonetheless. One such question asked about the use of surveys in assessing our courses, such surveys aimed at graduating seniors and alumni as well as those designed to determine \u201cstudent satisfaction\u201d and \u201ccustomer satisfaction.\u201d The use of surveys to somehow indicate whether students are learning exposes the absurdity of this entire assessment process. True pedagogy has no customers nor is it assessed by any type of student satisfaction level which could be related in a consumer survey. What is amazing is that the Factory has actually tipped its hand here to reveal the depth of its own \u201cbuy-in\u201d to the shallow consumerist concerns of its corporate overlords.\nThis was the point that I realized why my results had not yet been previously submitted. I suddenly remembered that when I sought to submit my results in May just before heading out to my Fulbright trip to Brasil, the website had refused to allow submission of results from the assessments without answering all the questions. That included those that had absolutely no relation to the courses being assessed. Not only were assessment coordinators required to check a box regarding which consumer surveys they had not given and were unlikely ever to administer, they were required to offer a narrative explanation of their choices. Last May I didn\u2019t have time to track down the appropriate technocrat to either tell me how to get around the technology or provide an appropriate non-response. So I had not submitted the results. And I have to admit this morning when that submission had become so urgent, I simply punted.\nUnder the question about customer surveys, I noted that the Philosophy Department did not have customers, it taught students. For the question regarding student satisfaction, I simply remarked, \u201cDear G-d, folks, we\u2019re not Burger King \u2013 yet!\u201d No doubt this will provide some heartburn for those whose livelihoods depend upon cooperative minion instructors playing the game without question, that \u201cbuy-in\u201d thing again. I hasten to add here that I do not wish them ill, personally. But creating increasingly burdensome forms which require answering inapplicable, unanswerable questions and then justifying them with narrative explanations merits a little heartburn if not a reality check for those who impose such burdens on others. While I doubt it will make any difference, if one of them stops for one nanosecond to perhaps question the sanity \u2013 much less the real utility \u2013 of any of this stupidity, it will have been worth the effort.\nFor the record, I\u2019m not holding my breath.\nSomeone Else Will Get Saddled With It\u2026.\nAfter I had finally gotten the site to accept the submission of my actual results along with all the bullshit I had to make up to get the report accepted, I wrote the coordinator who had admonished us to submit our reports in light of the urgency of the situation. I noted that I had finally gotten the reports to submit, adding that the process had become onerous and time consuming. I didn\u2019t mention that the process had become impracticable and required creative fabrication to even submit the required forms. The response I got was to thank me and then to suggest that perhaps someone else in the department should take over \u201cthese tasks.\u201d\nThere is no hint in this response of any kind of gratitude for having gotten the process off the ground to begin with and the seven years of unpaid effort which have followed. As with most technocrats, it\u2019s a matter of \u201cWhat have you done for me lately?\u201d There is also no recognition of my repeated efforts to make clear to the assessment lords that until they make their case for the need for this process, they will get neither instructor nor student \u201cbuy-in.\u201d Not surprisingly, it does not respond to my ongoing challenge of the presumptions of the need to prove learning through artificially contrived empirical data or the need for instructors to improve their class through such data. These are not things that technocrats - either the true believers in the \u201caccountability\u201d ideology or those absolutely desperate to hold managerial positions of questionable value - want to hear.\nOf course, the reason I got saddled with this job in the first place is because I was low man in seniority in the department at the time and had no choice. When you\u2019re seeking a full-time slot, you\u2019re willing to do a lot of things you wouldn\u2019t do if you had a real choice. My yearly offers to give up my crown as GEP Assessments Queen have drawn no takers. No one else wanted to do this bullshit then and my guess is that no one wants to take it over from me now. If I am relieved of this burden, my guess is that it will simply be the result of there finally being someone beneath me on the seniority pecking order.\nI was circumspect in my response to the director\u2019s suggestion that someone should replace me. \u201cThank you.\u201d I said, adding, \u201cI\u2019ve been saying that for the last couple of years.\u201d And perhaps someone will take it over for me. Of course, that will make this process no more particularly useful to any of us. It will also make it no less onerous and time consuming. It will simply mean that I will no longer have to be bothered with it.\nTebowie: The Tone Deaf Would-Be Hero\nJimmy Fallon has outdone himself this time. I love Jimmy, particularly his ability to laugh at himself and others, giggling amidst his routines. But his recent video in which he combines David Bowie\u2019s Space Oddity and Tim Tebow\u2019s antics on and off the football field is priceless.\nDressed as Bowie, complete with Mohawk, platform boots and face paint, Fallon combines Tebow\u2019s Bronco\u2019s jersey and sings the following:\n\"Tim Tebow to Jesus Christ...commencing fourth-down hut, hut, hike.\nSnap the football and may G-d\u2019s love be with me\u2026.\nThis is Jesus Christ to Tim Tebow...\nplease leave me alone...\ndon't you know my day of rest is Sunday...\nand I'm sick of watching all these Broncos games.\nI hear you play New England next week.\nDude, you\u2019re on your own\u2026.\"\nIt's clever and amusing. And, in Fallon\u2019s inimitable manner, he manages to tread gingerly on a subject that has roused passionate commentary both for and against the young man some are calling \u201cG-d\u2019s quarterback.\u201d My guess is that even Timmy boy probably found it entertaining.\nCivil Liberties v. Consideration for Others\nI find myself puzzled at why I find this whole thing so troubling. As a civil libertarian, I strongly support Tebow\u2019s right to speak freely and to believe as he sees fit. But what troubles me about his behavior is what I see as an increasing tendency in a media-driven culture to think in the superficial and simplistic terms lacking context or complexity, a pattern that underlies most fundamentalisms today.\nThe question is not whether Tebow can presume that G-d has provided him the sports arena for proselytizing as he has suggested. Clearly he does presume that. Rather, the question is why he would.\nThe other question is why he would presume a right to ignore and thus abuse the context of this behavior so completely. There are many in his audiences who do not wish to have simplistic religious ideation imposed upon them as the cost for watching a professional sporting event. While Tebow has the right to believe and express himself as he sees fit, the question is why he does not recognize and honor the responsibilities to others which his behaviors ignore and trample in the process. As with most adolescent libertarians, a focus on individual rights, freedoms and liberties almost inevitably ends up in the trampling of the rights of others and the demeaning of the public sphere.\nTone Deafness to Context\nI should quickly add here that I do not share the view that some are asserting that Tebow should somehow be prohibited from his network proselytizing. We\u2019re not talking about a breach of protocol such as Robert Novak\u2019s revelation in The Washington Post of Valerie Plame\u2019s undercover status as a CIA agent, a move designed to besmirch her husband Joe Wilson\u2019s reputation and protect George Bush\u2019s deceit which prompted our invasion of Iraq. Novak\u2019s column cost a number of lives of Plame\u2019s contacts around the world and would result in the indictment of Bush aide Scooter Libby.\nTebow\u2019s conduct, on the other hand, is more analogous to the frat boy who shows up at the wedding rehearsal party intoxicated and includes in his toast comments bawdy stories about bride-to-be laced with profanities. In other contexts (such as the locker room) the off-color sexual jokes and the crude language might be appropriate but not in a setting where such behavior is unexpected and undesired by the bulk of the attendees. It\u2019s not behavior that merits intervention or punishment, it\u2019s simply inappropriate given the context and a failure of consideration for others.\nI also find the critique of many who see Tebow as somehow insincere or hypocritical as pretty shallow. I have no doubt that Tebow believes what he says. Indeed, I sense that it is precisely those beliefs from which his work in charity arises.\nWhat is perhaps most frustrating for this Franciscan in watching this debacle is that Tebow\u2019s actions off the field make a far more convincing case for his religious beliefs than anything he might say at a press conference or any pious theodrama performed in an endzone. Here Timmy might learn an important lesson from another young man of privilege who after conversion spent a lifetime serving the less fortunate of his day. St. Francis of Assisi might well sit down this young quarterback and teach him an important lesson: \u201cPreach the Gospel at all times. Use words \u2013 and theatrics \u2013 only when necessary.\u201d\nGratitude for Unearned Privilege, Not Divine Favor\nWhat is ironic in the many paeans to Tebow flooding the internet and airwaves is that the overriding commentary seeks to construct an image of this young man as somehow humble. For the most part, Tim is respectful of his teammates (though clearly not his audience) and like most evangelicals who confuse conventional middle class morality with religion probably wouldn\u2019t utter profanities like \u201cShit!\u201d even if he had a mouthful. He\u2019s a good boy, as we say here in the South.\nBut, like most evangelicals, he is also entirely lacking in insight when it comes to his religion. After his miraculous comeback performance against the Pittsburgh Steelers, tossing a pass for an 80 yard touchdown in overtime to stay alive in the NFL playoffs, Tebow reacted as follows:\nTeow after congratulating his Roman receiver knelt on one knee and thanked God. His recollections convey the essential Tebow. \"When I saw him scoring,\" recalled the victorious quarterback, \"first of all, I just thought, 'Thank you, Lord.' (from R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr., \u201cThank you, God, for Tim Tebow,\u201d American Spectator)\nIn all honesty, Tebow has much to be thankful for. If he\u2019s being honest with himself, he will thank G-d for winning the genetic lottery that provided him with the superior musculature, speed and endurance that have helped him become a professional athlete. A single allele on his DNA chain configured differently and he could have been born with Downs Syndrome or a spina bifida. He is also the beneficiary of unearned privilege as a white, straight male born into a wealthy family in a culture which provides unearned privilege for all of those attributes.\nThere is also nothing inappropriate about thanking G-d for a performance which evidences the best and fullest use of all the skills one has been given the potential to develop. Being the best football player that a man with Tebow\u2019s potential has been given is admirable. Indeed, anything less would squander those gifts, a failure of both gratitude and self-actualization.\nWhere Tebow goes off the rails \u2013 and loses all pretenses of humility - is when his words and behaviors suggest that somehow the divine intervenes in that performance to permit him and his team victory over another team. There\u2019s a great deal of difference between praying that G-d will help you to do your very best given the gifts you have been privileged to receive and worked hard to develop and suggesting that somehow G-d was involved in the outcome of a sporting event.\nThe Gods were not smiling Sunday\nTebow\u2019s behavior suggests a very limited vision of the deity. It is little different from the tribal gods of any honor-shame culture in which one\u2019s validity and value are presumed from victory and the favor of the gods as instrumental to that victory. The clear implication is that the god is on the side of the winner, an idea which dates to ancient cultures which long precede the evangelical Protestantism that Mr. Tebow practices.\nMoreover, when Tebow, like most evangelicals, speaks of Jesus Christ as his \u201cpersonal lord and savior\u201d to whom credit for an athletic performance must be given, the implication of such a statement is that the deity has somehow chosen this particular individual to favor. Somehow, seeing Tim Tebow in the same light as the saints of the church or the Hebrew prophets just doesn\u2019t ring true. And as the second playoff game against New England suggests, this is a fickle deity. Indeed, using the honor/shame tribal deity interpretation, either the gods loved Tom Brady and his Patriots more than Tebow and his Broncos or the latter must have done something major to offend the gods. Thank G-d Colorado has outlawed human sacrifice.\nI watched the Tebow fall from grace in snatches between watching the very moving The King\u2019s Speech on Showtime and the smarmy Collision with Earth on SyFy. It made for a rather surreal post-modern experience made possible by remote controls and the multiple channels of the cable television age. I\u2019m glad to have had some alternatives to the drubbing in Gillette Stadium. While I wasn\u2019t particularly invested in the game, I have to admit that by half-time, I was feeling positively sorry for Tebow. I like this kid and I continue to think he\u2019s generally a nice young man if a bit hard headed. And that night, nice guys not only finished last, they were positively embarrassed.\nThe pre-game show featured Tebow engaging some disabled young adults, hugging them, smiling and laughing. This is a Tebow who is eminently admirable. How much of that is NFL and television channel puffery and how much is real is unclear. But given Tebow\u2019s work with charities away from the field, I tend to think it\u2019s perhaps more indicative of his character than his religious rantings. Which is why his periodic lapses into a glazed over automaton status to proselytize inappropriately are so troubling.\nLike most evangelicals, Tebow is tone deaf to the counterproductive potential of his endeavors. Where a handful of religious conservatives and social conservative bloggers will no doubt find Tebow\u2019s religious antics on and off the field to be acceptable if not admirable, to the wider public the lack of consideration for others is immediately evident. Never underestimate the conservative devotion to self-interest and corresponding oblivion to duties to others.\nA Tribal Deity in a Commercial Venue\nBut what is the implication of a religion which demands its followers seek to impose their religion in any venue regardless of the context? What kind of G-d would invert the Great Commandment such that the consideration of the feelings of one\u2019s neighbor implicit in loving them as oneself would be entirely negated in an obsessive drive to convert them to one\u2019s religious ideational system? What demons of doubt drive such obsessions?\nFinally, what kind of religion would find commercial sporting venues appropriate for proselytizing? The selling of a faith in a G-d who supposedly stands outside of time - much less his own creation - in venues which emphasize instant gratification consumerism (it\u2019s all about me) and competition (he who dies with the most toys wins) does not speak of gods who are eternal and omnipotent. Rather it speaks to constructions of the divine whose credibility and compelling natures turn on the vicissitudes of the market and the sporting arena. That\u2019s perhaps a very American way of constructing G-d but it hardly speaks to a G-d worth trusting, much less worshipping.\nAt some level, I also see this as a matter of maturity. Tebow is young. He has much growing up to do both athletically as well as personally. In time, perhaps he will learn important lessons about the freedoms of expression and religion and the contextual concerns for time, place and manner not to mention consideration of others. It is my prayer that he does. I have supported him for a long time and I continue to do so now despite my reservations about his religious behaviors. As always, I continue to wish Tim Tebow well. Go Gator!\nMy copies of the Student Perceptions of Instruction from my fall classes arrived in my box last week. As usual, they offered little of value in terms of useful feedback even as they could have. But I have come to expect little more from the Factory and the corporate overlords it now unabashedly serves.\nTake Our Survey \u2013 Win $1000!\nThe initial page of the survey provides a key to the comments which follow. The first two questions are particularly insightful:\n1) The thing(s) I liked the MOST about this course;\n2) The thing(s) I liked the LEAST about this course.\nOf course, all of us are familiar with these questions. They are the questions we find on customer service surveys left on our tables with the checks at the end of dinner in a number of chain restaurants. We also encounter them at the customer service surveys we discover when we actually go to the online sites provided on our check out receipts from Home Depot or J.C. Penney, ostensibly to win $1000 or some such nonsense. Such questions may actually provide valuable feedback to the producers of restaurant meals, potted plants or bathroom curtains. But their utility in offering useful feedback to college instructors is largely missing.\nThe fact that a given consumer, formerly known as a student, liked or disliked a given course or a given aspect of the course\u2019s pedagogy really tells the instructor nothing about the appropriateness of that pedagogy. Indeed, some of the most educationally useful pedagogies include aspects that students routinely hate \u2013 e.g., mandatory class attendance, critical reflection assignments, research papers. Conversely, commonly used pedagogies that the current crop of products of Pavlovian high stakes testing have come to expect such as multiple choice quizzes (with lots of time to go look up answers if given online) as well as cattle call auditorium classes where one\u2019s absence can go unnoticed are fairly consistently shown to be popular but have little - perhaps even negative - pedagogical value.\nIn short, what a consumer likes or dislikes about a given class provides a college instructor charged with creating and executing pedagogies designed to help students become educated human beings little to work with. Indeed, they don\u2019t even offer much to those technocrats who mistakenly see their role as stamping out obedient worker drones who emerge from vocational training factories with a bare minimum of skills and the work credential which is replacing the college degree.\nIn years past, student evaluations (the predecessor to what is now accurately described as mere perceptions of instruction by students) were administered in class. The instructor read the directions, designated a student to distribute, collect and return the evaluations to the departmental or college office and then left the room. The evaluations took place in the context of the real live human being who taught the course. And they generally were completed by virtually the entire class present in the classroom the final day of classes.\nI have for years preceded the instructor evaluation with a student self-evaluation in which students assessed their own performances in attendance, preparation, engagement, consideration and honesty before assessing mine. We used a form I created which allowed them to score their performance in each of those categories on the scale provided. It provided space to explain any given aspect of their performance and at the end, the student totaled the scores from each category, compared the sum to the grade scale for the whole exercise and then was asked to explain whether that grade accurately reflected their engagement of the class. Students took the exercise seriously because it advised the instructor on how to award the last 25 points of engagement credit.\nThe initial point of this exercise was to encourage students to reflect on their own performance in the course and hold themselves accountable. That the exercise immediately preceded the instructor evaluation also reinforced the notion that, like the medieval notion of the universitas, education occurs in the context of the whole body \u2013 all of the parties \u2013 participating. Without the context of the students\u2019 performance, evaluation of an instructor\u2019s performance is ultimately meaningless (which is the primary reason that assessing schools and teachers by student test results alone is profoundly misguided). It is a system that has worked for many years prior to its replacement by the current consumerist model.\nIronically, while the new survey was designed to provide results in a quick and easy fashion for bureaucrats with OCD tendencies when it comes to empirical data, students have largely resisted these surveys. Of the 71 students in my four courses this semester, only 40 actually had completed the Student Perception of Instruction survey when the results were printed out and sent to instructors last week. That\u2019s a mere 56% of all the students, a far cry from the near 100% participation on instructor evaluations of the past. This raises a validity issue regarding the results from the very start. Instructors are charged with teaching all of their students, not just those who might actually answer a survey.\nA more serious concern arises from the shift from in-person administration of these surveys to the current online administration. The removal of the actual human being from the process lends itself to an expectable and widely demonstrated dehumanizing effect. Study after study has observed that the tenor of commentary about other people tends in the direction of negativity online. Anyone who\u2019s lived through a flame war online knows this tendency only too well. It\u2019s a lot easier to take pot shots at people who aren\u2019t present from the safe anonymity of cyberspace than when they\u2019re standing in front of you.\nTo make matters worse, the Factory, recognizing the obvious problem in student participation on these surveys, has resorted to coercive tactics to insure students finally take the surveys. Of course, the students are only demonstrating expectable consumerist behaviors - Why bother? What\u2019s in it for me? But while only 56% of my students had completed their surveys by the time the report was generated, the majority of the remaining 44% will ultimately comply if they wish to register for classes, the Factory having blocked their accounts until then. One can only imagine the tenor of comments compelled by such means.\nTexas Hold \u2018Em \u2013 Please!\nIt would be tempting to simply ignore the current consumerism that passes for instructor evaluations as just one more irritation imposed upon those struggling to survive in what was once a noble profession. Sadly, these Student Perceptions of Instruction offer little useful feedback for instructors primarily due to the underlying premises of the enterprise. It is simply one more aspect of the mindlessness that surrounds the educational enterprise in America today.\nBut it\u2019s particularly disappointing when an effective, thoughtful evaluation which provided a contextual background for student responses might well provide instructors with valuable information about how to structure and teach their classes. The metalesson of such a feedback process could reinforce the notion of mutual responsibilities to the educational process. The current model merely reinforces the notion that students are consumers with little to no responsibility to anyone else, even to their own educational processes.\nThe Factory and its corporate overlords in Tallahassee are beginning to make noises that the mindless corporatism of Texas may be coming to a state near you. Under the system currently being implemented in Texas and praised by a number of Florida legislators and the governor, consumerist surveys such as the SPI could become major factors in everything from hiring to raises to promotions to firings. Combined with proposals to end tenure, evaluate instructors based upon how many students complete their courses and how many are employed after graduation, consumer surveys could become a major component in the careers of public servants in educational institutions.\nOf course, there is little concern for actual education in this approach. Granted, that assumes that its proponents actually care about an educated public, ostensibly the purpose for public schools. As noted above, the primary concern for the vassals of the corporate world who run our state government today and the technocrats who implement those imperatives is an obedient, minimally trained work force largely headed toward service industry jobs. It is a sad day for a state with enormous potential I once loved in a once mighty nation I once believed in which today is clearly descending into decline.\nReed and Wright\nI am the fourth generation of educators in my family. My great grandparents were named Reed and Wright. They were both teachers. I have devoted 32 years of my life to the goal of insuring the educated public necessary for a democratic society. The current practices of higher education do not serve that goal, they serve the greed-driven imperatives of business. There\u2019s not much place for true educators in the emerging system. And while the people of Florida don\u2019t know it yet, the current trajectory of technocrats implementing corporate directives which are profoundly shaping our educational system is going to produce a very different Florida within as little as one decade. I shudder to think of that possibility.\nThis is a pathologically myopic path we are pursuing. While it is possible to change course before our society completely derails, it is looking less and less likely such will happen. As Yeats observed, \u201cThe best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity.\u201d Increasingly it is my sad realization tht one of the few consolations my life still holds is that I will not live long enough to see the full repercussions of this abandonment of the goal of insuring an educated public in America.\nLeviathan: On Technocrats, Accountability and Crea...\nTebowie: The Tone Deaf Would-Be Hero Jimmy Fallon...\nSurvey Says\u2026..

Mackrell\nDance is a powerful impulse, but the art of dance is that impulse channeled by skillful performers into something that becomes intensely expressive and that may delight spectators who feel no wish to dance themselves. These two concepts of the art of dance\u2014dance as a powerful impulse and dance as a skillfully choreographed art practiced largely by a professional few\u2014are the two most important connecting ideas running through any consideration of the subject. In dance, the connection between the two concepts is stronger than in some other arts, and neither can exist without the other.\nAlthough the above broad definition covers all forms of the art, philosophers and critics throughout history have suggested different definitions of dance that have amounted to little more than descriptions of the kind of dance with which each writer was most familiar. Thus, Aristotle\u2019s statement in the Poetics that dance is rhythmic movement whose purpose is \u201cto represent men\u2019s characters as well as what they do and suffer\u201d refers to the central role that dance played in classical Greek theatre, where the chorus through its movements reenacted the themes of the drama during lyric interludes.\nThe English ballet master John Weaver, writing in 1721, argued on the other hand that \u201cDancing is an elegant, and regular movement, harmoniously composed of beautiful Attitudes, and contrasted graceful Posture of the Body, and parts thereof.\u201d Weaver\u2019s description reflects very clearly the kind of dignified and courtly movement that characterized the ballet of his time, with its highly formalized aesthetics and lack of forceful emotion. The 19th-century French dance historian Gaston Vuillier also emphasized the qualities of grace, harmony, and beauty, distinguishing \u201ctrue\u201d dance from the crude and spontaneous movements of early man:\nThe choreographic art . . . was probably unknown to the earlier ages of humanity. Savage man, wandering in forests, devouring the quivering flesh of his spoils, can have known nothing of those rhythmic postures which reflect sweet and caressing sensations entirely alien to his moods. The nearest approach to such must have been the leaps and bounds, the incoherent gestures, by which he expressed the joys and furies of his brutal life.\nJohn Martin, the 20th-century dance critic, almost ignored the formal aspect of dance in emphasizing its role as a physical expression of inner emotion. In doing so, he betrayed his own sympathy toward the Expressionist school of modern American dance: \u201cAt the root of all these varied manifestations of dancing . . . lies the common impulse to resort to movement to externalise states which we cannot externalise by rational means. This is basic dance.\u201d\nA truly universal definition of dance must, therefore, return to the fundamental principle that dance is an art form or activity that utilizes the body and the range of movement of which the body is capable. Unlike the movements performed in everyday living, dance movements are not directly related to work, travel, or survival. Dance may, of course, be made up of movements associated with these activities, as in the work dances common to many cultures, and it may even accompany such activities. But even in the most practical dances, movements that make up the dance are not reducible to those of straightforward labour; rather, they involve some extra qualities such as self-expression, aesthetic pleasure, and entertainment.\nThis article discusses the techniques and components of dance as well as the aesthetic principles behind its appreciation as an art. Various types of dance are discussed with emphasis on their style and choreography. The history of dance in various regions is treated in a number of articles; see dance, African; music and dance, Oceanic; dance, Western; arts, Central Asian; arts, East Asian; arts, Islamic; dance, Native American; arts, South Asian; and arts, Southeast Asian. The interaction between dance and other art forms is discussed in folk dance.\nThe aesthetics of dance\nBasic motives: self-expression and physical release\nOne of the most basic motives of dance is the expression and communication of emotion. People\u2014and even certain higher animals\u2014often dance as a way of releasing powerful feelings, such as sudden accesses of high spirits, joy, impatience, or anger. These motive forces can be seen not only in the spontaneous skipping, stamping, and jumping movements often performed in moments of intense emotion, but also in the more formalized movements of \u201cset\u201d dances, such as tribal war dances or festive folk dances. Here the dance helps to generate emotions as well as release them.\nPeople also dance for the pleasure of experiencing the body and the surrounding environment in new and special ways. Dance often involves movement being taken to an extreme, with, for example, the arms being flung or stretched out, the head lifted back, and the body arched or twisted. Also, it often involves a special effort or stylization, such as high kicks, leaps, or measured walks. Dance movements tend to be organized into a spatial or rhythmic pattern, tracing lines or circles on the ground, following a certain order of steps, or conforming to a pattern of regular accents or stresses.\nAll of these characteristics may produce a state of mind and body that is very different from that of everyday experience. The dance requires unaccustomed patterns of muscular exertion and relaxation as well as an unusually intense or sustained expenditure of energy. The dancer may become intensely aware of the force of gravity and of a state of equilibrium or disequilibrium that normal activities do not generate. At the same time, the dance creates a very different perception of time and space for the dancer: time is marked by the rhythmic ordering of movement and by the duration of the dance, and space is organized around the paths along which the dancer travels or around the shapes made by the body.\nDance can, in fact, create a completely self-contained world for dancers, in which they are capable of physical effort, prowess, and endurance far beyond their normal powers. \u1e62\u016bf\u012b dervishes, as an extreme example, can whirl ecstatically for long stretches of time without appearing tired or giddy, and certain Indonesian dancers can strike daggers against their naked chests without causing apparent pain or injury.\nThis transcendence of the everyday may also be experienced by the spectators. Drawn into the rhythms and patterns created by the dancer\u2019s movements, they may begin to share in the emotions being expressed through them. They may also experience kinesthetically something similar to the physical sensations of the dancer. Kinesthesia, or the awareness of the body through sensations in the joints, muscles, and tendons, rather than through visual perception, not only defines the dancer\u2019s experience of his own body in movement but also the way in which dance exerts its power over the spectators, who not only see it but also feel an echo of the dancer\u2019s movements and rhythms in their own nerve endings.\nProblems in defining dance\nSelf-expression and physical release may thus be seen as the two basic motives for dance. Dance itself, however, takes a wide variety of forms, from simple spontaneous activity to formalized art or from a social gathering where everyone participates to a theatrical event with dancers performing before an audience.\nDefining According To Function\nWithin this broad spectrum of forms, dance fulfills a number of very different functions, including the religious, the military, and the social. Nearly all cultures have had, or still possess, dances that play an important part in religious ritual. There are dances in which the performers and even the spectators work themselves into a trance in order to transcend their ordinary selves and receive the powers of the gods or, as in the case of Indian temple dancers, in which the performers enact the stories of the gods as a way of worshiping them. In some early Christian communities, processions or formal dance patterns formed part of the prayer service.\nIt is possible to view modern military marches and drilling procedures as descendants of the tribal war and hunting dances that have also been integral to many cultures. War dances, often using weapons and fighting movements, were used throughout history as a way of training soldiers and preparing them emotionally and spiritually for battle. Many hunting tribes performed dances in which the hunters dressed in animal skins and imitated the movements of their prey, thus acquiring the skills of the animal in question and, through sympathetic magic, gaining power over it.\nDance also plays a number of important social roles in all cultures, notably in matters of celebration, courtship, recreation, and entertainment. Courtship dances, for example, allow the dancers to display their vigour and attractiveness and to engage in socially accepted physical contact between the sexes. (The waltz, a relatively modern example of the courtship dance, was banned at certain times because its flagrant contact between the dancers was considered indecent.) Such traditional dances often contain fertility motifs, where mimed (or even actual) motions of sexual intercourse are enacted. One motif in particular, the fertility leap, in which the male dancer lifts the woman as high as he can, is common to many courtship dances, such as the Tyrolean Schuhplattler.\nThe importance of dance in courtship and social gatherings is probably older than its use as recreation and entertainment. Many scholars have suggested that dance was once an integral part of everyday life, accompanying both practical activities and religious rituals. Only when more complex social and economic structures began to emerge and a leisured class or caste came into existence did people begin to see dance as a source of pleasure, in some way distinct from the most important issues of survival.\nAs tribal societies gave way to more complex civilizations, many of the earlier ritual forms, such as religious, work, and hunting dances, gradually lost their original significance and developed into recreational folk dances while still retaining many of their original motifs, such as the use of sticks or swords in the English morris dance or the pole in Maypole dances. All kinds of dance in all stages of evolution, however, have retained some importance as means of social cohesion. Dance has also been used as a means of displaying political or social strength and identity. In ancient Greece, for example, citizens were compelled to attend dance dramas partly in order to encourage allegiance to the city-state. An example in the 19th century was Hungary\u2019s purposeful revival of its national dances in order to promote a strong sense of national identity.\nDistinguishing Dance From Other Patterned Movement\nIn all the different dance forms, movement becomes dance through stylization and formal organization, an organization that may be variously determined by an aesthetic idea or by the function of the dance (see below Choreography). There are, however, many kinds of activities involving disciplined and patterned movement that do not fit the category of dance\u2014for example, sports or the behaviour of certain animals\u2014because the principles that govern these activities are not the crucial principles of aesthetic pleasure, self-expression, and entertainment.\nDistinguishing between a wrestling match and a choreographed fight in a ballet can illustrate the importance of these principles in defining dance. It is easy to distinguish between a real fight and a fight in a ballet because the former occurs in \u201creal life\u201d and the latter takes place in a theatre and because in the latter the antagonists do not actually want to hurt each other. But in wrestling matches, although the antagonists look as if they are fighting, they are also taking part in a choreographed drama that, like the ballet, is partly appraised on questions of style. In the wrestling match, however, these questions of style are not, as in ballet, central to the event but only incidental. The principle most strongly governing the fighters\u2019 movements is the scoring of points rather than aesthetic appeal or self-expression. For this reason, even choreographed wrestling matches do not fit the same category as dance. (The martial arts of Southeast Asia cannot be as easily distinguished from dance, because the movements of the practitioners are expected to be as refined and as graceful as those in dance.)\nFigure skating, particularly in its contemporary form of ice dance competition, is more difficult to distinguish from dance, because both aesthetic and expressive qualities are important. But at the same time, there are certain rules that have to be followed more stringently in ice skating than in dance, and once again the governing principle is the competitive display of skills rather than the enjoyment of movement for its own sake. (Dance competitions in which performers are given points present an even more difficult case of distinguishing art from sport, but, to the extent that it is governed by the principle of scoring points, dance competition cannot be defined as art.)\nMarches and processions present another difficulty of classification. Some involve patterned groupings of people and a disciplined, stylized movement such as the military goose step, and the participants may feel and express powerful emotions. Such movements also may be accompanied by highly theatrical elements, such as colourful costumes, props, and music, that often accompany dance. But in a march the movement itself is so subordinate to other considerations\u2014such as the mobilization of large numbers of people or the playing of music\u2014that it cannot be regarded as dance.\nDefining According To Intent\nAn important factor distinguishing dance from other patterned movement is that of intention. The flight patterns made by swarms of bees or the elaborate courtship rituals of certain birds may be more pleasing to watch and more elaborately organized than the simple, untutored dancing movements of a child. Such patterned movements, however, are not referred to, except analogously, as dances because they are rooted in involuntary genetic behaviour necessary for the survival of the species. In other words, they are not intended as entertainment, aesthetic pleasure, or self-expression. Indeed, it may be argued that for an activity to count as dance, the dancer must be at least capable of distinguishing it as such or must intend it as such. (In a duet by the American choreographer Paul Taylor, two men simply remained motionless on stage for four minutes. Yet the piece was accepted as dance because of its aesthetic context: it was in a theatre and Taylor was known as an experimental choreographer. In addition, the spectators knew that it was intended as a piece that either was dance or was about dance.)\nEven when an activity is clearly identified as dancing, there are frequent debates as to whether it is part of the art of dance. Any art form evolves through strong aesthetic principles, and the three main principles governing the art of dance have been discussed above. But of these three principles some may be recognized by one group and not by another. For example, classical ballet reached its zenith in Russia in the late 19th century: Its technique was perfectly developed, and its dancers were acknowledged virtuosos. But a number of choreographers, reacting against the dominant aesthetics of classical ballet, argued that it was simply empty acrobatics and not dance at all because it concentrated on showing the skills of individual dancers and failed to express any significant ideas or emotions. Similarly, when Martha Graham, the pioneer choreographer in American modern dance, first presented her works in the late 1920s, audiences found them so unlike the ballets that they were used to that they refused to acknowledge them as dance (see below Theatre dance: Modern dance). The debate goes on over the works of today\u2019s avant-garde choreographers, and the same is true for one culture\u2019s perceptions of another culture\u2019s dance. When Europeans first encountered the highly sophisticated Middle Eastern dance form raq\u1e63 sharq\u012b, they perceived it as erotic display and called it the belly dance.\nDance as dramatic expression or abstract form\nThe Debate In The West\nIn Western theatre-dance traditions, notably ballet and modern dance, the most recurrent clash of principles has been over the question of expression. Theatre dance generally falls into two categories: that which is purely formal, or dedicated to the perfection of style and display of skill, and that which is dramatic, or dedicated to the expression of emotion, character, and narrative action. In the early French and Italian ballets of the 16th and 17th centuries, dance was only a part of huge spectacles involving singing, recitation, instrumental music, and elaborate stage design. Although such spectacles were loosely organized around a story or theme, the dance movement itself was largely formal and ornamental, with only a very limited range of mime gestures to convey the action. As dance itself became more virtuosic and ballet began to emerge as a proper theatrical art form, the technical prowess of the dancers became the major focus of interest. Ballet developed into a miscellaneous collection of short pieces inserted, almost at random, into the middle of an opera with no other function than to show off the dancers\u2019 skills. In Lettres sur la danse et sur les ballets (1760; Letters on Dancing and Ballets) Jean-Georges Noverre, the great French choreographer and ballet master, deplored this development. He argued that dance is meaningless unless it has some dramatic and expressive content and that movement should become more natural and accommodate a wider range of expression: \u201cI think . . . this art has remained in its infancy only because its effects have been limited, like those of fireworks designed simply to gratify the eyes. . . . No one has suspected its power of speaking to the heart.\u201d\nDuring the great Romantic period of ballet in the first half of the 19th century, Noverre\u2019s dream of the ballet d\u2019action was fulfilled as ballet, now a completely independent art form, occupied itself with dramatic themes and emotions. But by the late 19th century the importance attached to virtuosity at the expense of expressiveness had again become an issue. In 1914 the Russian-born choreographer Michel Fokine argued for reform on lines similar to those of Noverre, asserting that \u201cthe art of the older ballet turned its back on life and . . . shut itself up in a narrow circle of traditions.\u201d Fokine insisted that \u201cdancing and mimetic gesture have no meaning in a ballet unless they serve as an expression of its dramatic action, and they must not be used as a mere divertissement or entertainment, having no connection with the scheme of the whole ballet.\u201d\nOutside the ballet companies, exponents of modern dance in Europe and the United States were also arguing that ballet expressed nothing of the inner life and emotions, for its stories were childish fantasies and its technique was too artificial to be expressive. Martha Graham, whose commitment to dramatic content was so strong that she often referred to her dance works as dramas, created a new style of movement to express what she saw as the psychological and social condition of modern man: \u201cLife today is nervous, sharp, and zig-zag. It often stops in mid-air. That is what I aim for in my dances. The old balletic forms could not give it voice.\u201d\nIn the decades between the world wars, Graham, Mary Wigman, and Doris Humphrey established the school of Expressionist modern dance, which was characterized by serious subject matter and highly dramatic movement. Other choreographers, such as Merce Cunningham and George Balanchine, argued that such close concern with dramatic expression could hamper the development of dance as an art form. Balanchine argued that \u201cthe ballet is such a rich art form that it should not be an illustrator of even the most interesting, even the most meaningful literary primary source. The ballet will speak for itself and about itself.\u201d The works of these choreographers emphasized formal structure and development of choreography rather than plot, character, or emotion. Partly as a result of their influence, the \u201cabstract,\u201d or plotless, ballet became popular among choreographers during the decades after World War II.\nDance As A Nonverbal Language\nAt the centre of much debate have been the questions how dance can express emotions and actions in any detailed way and whether it can be thought of as a kind of language. Cultural conventions partly determine the limits of expression. For example, the classical dance of India has more than 4,000 mudras, or gestures through which the dancer portrays complex actions, emotions, and relationships; these gestures are comprehensible to the audience because they have always been at the centre of Indian life and cultural traditions. In classical ballet, however, the vocabulary of mimed gesture is quite small and is comprehensible to only a few informed spectators, thus considerably limiting its expressive range. Referring to the practical impossibility of communicating, through dance, the complex plots and relationships between characters that are common in the spoken theatre, Balanchine once remarked, \u201cThere are no mothers-in-law in ballet.\u201d\nWhile dance cannot communicate specific events or ideas, it is a universal language that can communicate emotions directly and sometimes more powerfully than words. The French poet St\u00e9phane Mallarm\u00e9 declared that the dancer, \u201cwriting with her body, . . . suggests things which the written work could express only in several paragraphs of dialogue or descriptive prose.\u201d Because dance movements are closely related to the gestures of ordinary life, the emotions they express can be immediately understood, partly through a visual appreciation of the gesture and partly through a sympathetic kinesthetic response. Thus, when a dancer leaps, the spectators understand it as a sign of exhilaration, and they feel something of the lifting and tightening sensations that excitement produces in the body. In the same way, if a dancer\u2019s body is twisted or contracted, they feel an echo of the knotted sensation of pain.\nOf course, even the gestures of ordinary life are inherited from cultural conventions. A smile or a wave of the hand can, in certain non-Western cultures, be taken as a sign of aggression rather than welcome. In the same way, how spectators interpret dance movements depends on the context in which those movements occur and on the particular spectator who interprets them. A fall may signify despair in one context, or to one person, and a sinking into ecstasy in another.\nThe distinction between abstract and expressive dance is also a highly artificial one, becoming a clear distinction in critical theory but certainly not in actual performance. In even the most dramatic and mimetic dance, the movement is highly stylized and subjected to an abstract aesthetic principle. The structure of the piece is determined as much by formal considerations as by the narrative events. On the other hand, even the most abstract work expresses some emotion or character relationship simply because it is performed by people rather than neutral objects, and often the most highly elaborate dance pattern has some representational function.\nChanges in attitude toward dance\nCritics have argued the question of abstraction and expression largely in relation to theatre dance and also on the assumption that dance is a serious art form. Within recent history, however, this assumption was not always held. In late 19th-century Europe, outside Russia and Denmark, dance was generally regarded as mere entertainment with little aesthetic value. Attitudes to dance both as an art form and as a social activity have, in fact, varied dramatically throughout history. In cultures where it had, or still possesses, religious significance, it is treated with great respect. The ancient Greeks also took dance very seriously, both as an integral part of their drama\u2014which had strong political and social significance\u2014and as part of education. Plato wrote in the Laws that \u201cto sing well and to dance well is to be well educated. Noble dances should confer on the student not only health and agility and beauty, but also goodness of the soul and a well-balanced mind.\u201d Aristotle believed that dance was useful for \u201cpurging the young soul of unseemly emotions and preparing for the worthy enjoyment of leisure.\u201d\nThe Romans generally looked down on dance as effeminate and decadent. The historian Sallust remarked of a citizen\u2019s wife that \u201cshe played and danced more gracefully than a respectable woman should.\u201d The early Christian leaders took a similar view and tried to repress pagan dance customs wherever they could. This action has been attributed to the Christian belief that the body, being the unworthy vessel of the soul, should not be indulged by any kind of sensual pleasure or display. The attitude was not completely dominant, though, and some leaders felt that sober and decent dances could play an important role in religious worship. In the 4th century St. Basil asked, \u201cCould there be anything more blessed than to imitate on earth the ring-dance of the angels?\u201d Processional, circle, and line dances were included in many church services and can still be seen in some services in Toledo and Seville, Spain.\nAt the time of the Renaissance, when the hold of the church on secular life loosened, dance became popular at court (the church had never been successful at repressing dance among the peasants). It became an essential part of every courtier\u2019s education to be able to dance and move gracefully, and this was a time, too, when many performed in amateur court ballets. In England dancing was so popular among all classes that foreign ambassadors spoke of the people as the \u201cdancing English.\u201d\nDuring the 17th century the Puritans were more effective at stamping out the most exuberant and pagan of English dance customs, though among the upper classes it was still considered proper for young children to learn to dance, in order, as the philosopher John Locke put it, to instill \u201ca becoming confidence\u201d in them. In America the hold of the Puritans was even stronger, and many leaders frowned upon any kind of dance, recreational or otherwise, as idle and lascivious. Others saw it as a necessary part of education, providing that it was sober and serious. The most prominent exception to pious disapproval of dance was the Shaker sect, which, while prospering in the United States during the 18th and 19th centuries, developed choreographed dances as part of its worship service. The dances often represented quite complex religious themes. One figure, the wheel within a wheel, which was made up of circles turning in alternate directions around a central chorus of singers, represented the all-embracing nature of the Gospel; the outer ring of dancers represented the ultimate circle of truth, while the central chorus symbolized the harmony and perfection of God that is at the centre of life.\nGradually, dance as a means of physical education and entertainment became more popular in the United States. Folk dancing and social dancing were encouraged, and by the 20th century theatre dance, too, began to lose its disreputable taint.\nCertainly in the Western world, dance as an art form has never been as popular as it is today, with a wide range of choreographic styles and genres attracting large audiences. As a form of recreation it has also undergone a massive revival, as can be seen in the resurgence of interest in swing and ballroom dancing and in the urban dance styles of contemporary music videos. Moreover, many folk dances, nearly lost to a broader public in the 20th century, have been carefully revived and are widely enjoyed; Irish dancing, Balkan dancing, and English country dancing were but a few of the popular participatory dances evident at the turn of the 21st century. In Asia and Africa many traditional dances have been transferred from the community, where they were dying out, to the theatre. This has brought about a rapid growth in their popularity, both in their places of origin and in the West, where they attract large audiences and are also studied.\nDancers are not just performing artists; their bodies are also the instruments through which the art is created. The quality of this art, therefore, necessarily depends on the physical qualities and skills that dancers possess. The stronger and more flexible a dancer\u2019s body, the more capable it is of a wide range of movement. Nearly all professional dancers start training at a young age in order to shape and develop their bodies correctly. Strength is built up in the right muscles, for example, and the bone-connecting ligaments on which flexibility of the joints is so dependent are lengthened early before they begin to harden.\nAs well as strength and mobility, a good dancer must also possess great coordination (the ability to work different parts of the body together), a highly developed kinesthetic awareness (in order to know and control the position and state of the body), control over weight and balance in motion, a developed awareness of space, a strong sense of rhythm, and an appreciation of music. Particularly in dramatic dance, the dancer must be able to project movement clearly and make its expressive qualities intelligible to the audience. Grace, fluidity, and harmony of body are also frequently desired in the dancer, as is physical beauty, but these are subjective qualities that differ from one culture to another and change according to fashion. (Today\u2019s physical ideal of the ballerina\u2014long-limbed and slender\u2014is quite different from the late 19th-century preference for a more rounded figure.)\nThough modern avant-garde choreographers sometimes work with untrained dancers to take advantage of the qualities of natural, untutored movement, most dancers in the West are trained either in a strict technique based on classical ballet or in techniques introduced by the 20th-century modern-dance choreographers Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham. (Other kinds of dance, such as jazz or tap, are usually taught in conjunction with these techniques.) Training generally begins early, between 8 and 12 years of age for girls and 14 for boys, although some ballet dancers and many more modern dancers begin later. Ballet training closely follows the rules published in 1828 by the Italian dancing master Carlo Blasis in his Code of Terpsichore. Blasis advocated at least three hours of dance classes a day, involving exercises that progressively developed different parts of the body.\nDaily classes are necessary not only to mold the body and develop the necessary physical skills but also to maintain the body in its proper condition and prevent injury. Many dance movements make strenuous and unnatural demands on the joints, muscles, and tendons, and it is easy to strain or damage them if the body is not properly maintained. Some bodies are more suitable for training than others, and in the West many aspiring dancers undergo extensive medical scrutiny to ensure that they have no weaknesses or disabilities, such as a weak or crooked spine, that would make them unfit for dancing.\nThe exercises involved in a dancer\u2019s training depend on the style of the dance. Ballet dancers have to work hard to attain a full turnout (the outward rotation of the legs in the hip socket so that the heels touch back to back and the feet form a 180\u00b0 angle), which enables them to lift their legs high in the air in jumps or arabesques. While ballet dancers rarely use the torso, African dancers and certain modern dancers have to be extraordinarily supple in the torso and pelvis in order to execute the ripples, twists, and percussive thrusts that their particular dances require. Indian classical dancers, while developing great strength and flexibility in the legs, must also achieve great control over the face and neck muscles and flexibility and control in the joints and muscles of the hands. This is necessary to execute their elaborate mudras, conventional symbolic gestures, with accuracy and grace.\nDifferences Among Dancers\nHowever rigorous and uniform training may be, each dancer always has a personal style of dancing. Certain skills come more easily to some dancers than to others: one may be an excellent jumper, while another may have exquisite control and balance in slow, sustained dance passages. The same choreography may also look completely different when executed by two different bodies. Thus, a dancer with very long limbs will make high leg extensions look exaggeratedly long while appearing slightly awkward in fast, intricate footwork. Another dancer may have a great deal of energy and speed but be unable to produce a sustained and beautiful line in held positions.\nFinally, dancers vary a great deal in the way they articulate and project movement. Some dancers move in a way that is tense, energetic, and even aggressive in its attack, while others appear soft and fluid. Some phrase their movements so that every detail is sharp and clear; others so that one element flows into another. Some move exactly in time with the phrasing of the music; others phrase their movement slightly independently of it. One dancer may produce movements that are dramatically charged and expressive, while another may be cool and detached, concentrating on technical perfection. Such qualities may vary so markedly that certain dance roles become inextricably connected to the dancers for whom they were created, for example, Anna Pavlova\u2019s Dying Swan, created by Michel Fokine in 1907, or Rudolf Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn\u2019s Marguerite and Armand, created by Frederick Ashton in 1963.\nIn modern dance the dancer may be highly esteemed for individual style and technique but is generally expected to submit his own personality to the demands of the choreography. Some of the works by the American choreographer Alwin Nikolais went so far as to conceal the dancer altogether under a panoply of props, costumes, and lighting projections.\nThe display of individual style is inevitable in theatre dances such as ballet and modern dance, where trained professionals perform for the pleasure of an audience. Some participatory dances also allow individual dancers to display their talents, as in ballroom or disco dancing, but in many folk dances, particularly those derived from ancient rituals, the sense of unity within the group usually outweighs the importance attached to any one dancer. In primitive religious dance such unity tends to be even more strictly observed. The point of the dance is not the display of the dancer\u2019s or choreographer\u2019s talents but the perfection of the ritual.\nFrom Amateur To Professional\nExacting standards and rigorous early training are common where dance has become an art performed before an audience. Such scholars as the German musicologist Curt Sachs have pointed out that in very early cultures, where dance was something in which everyone in the tribe participated, dancers were not regarded as specialists to be singled out and trained because of their particular skills or beauty. Once religious worship (the original occasion for dance) developed into ritual, however, it became important for dancers to be as skilled as possible, for if the ritual was not performed well and accurately, the prayers or magic would not succeed. Dancers were thus selected for special training, which may have taken place either through the family or through skilled individuals who lived and taught outside the community. The dancer\u2019s performance now became subject to the most rigorous judgments; indeed, Sachs mentions a tribe on the island of Santa Maria in the New Hebrides (present-day Vanuatu) where, it was said, \u201cold men used to stand by with bows and arrows and shoot at every dancer who made a mistake.\u201d\nFrequently, in religious dances, the dancer is subjected not only to intense physical training but also to spiritual discipline. Such dancers have often formed a special caste set apart from the rest of the community. In the religious hula dances of Hawaii, the dancers observed important taboos and took part in sacred rites in order to be fit to dance. The traditional religious dancers of India also had to remain pure; they were regarded as brides of the gods and were taught by masters of the highest caste. (Frequently such practices became corrupt, and female temple dancers were also paid to perform in the houses of the wealthy, thus acquiring a reputation for sexual license and promiscuity.)\nIn Europe professional dance was for many centuries restricted to joculators, wandering bands of jugglers, dancers, poets, and musicians, who were generally regarded as social inferiors. The early ballets were performed almost exclusively by amateur dancers at court (though instructed by professional dancing masters) for whom dance was a means of demonstrating their own grace, dignity, and good manners. The comic, or burlesque, parts alone were performed by professionals, who were not so concerned about their dignity. It was Louis XIV of France, himself an enthusiastic amateur dancer when young, who realized that the art of dance could not advance unless dancers were properly trained professionals. To provide standards for this training, he set up the Acad\u00e9mie Royale de Danse in 1661, merging it with the Acad\u00e9mie Royale de Musique in 1672. (The Acad\u00e9mie survives to the present day as the Paris Op\u00e9ra Ballet.) Through the work of masters such as Pierre Beauchamp, first director of the Acad\u00e9mie Royale de Danse, the main principles of dance technique were codified, and dancers rapidly reached much greater heights of virtuosity. Before Louis\u2019s innovations, the split between court dancing, with its carefully cultivated style and patterns of movement, and the less refined peasant dances was already marked, but from this point the gap between professional and amateur dance in Europe really came into being.\nBasic steps and formations\nThe style and movement vocabulary of classical ballet is rooted in the five turned-out positions of the feet: (1) heels touching and feet forming a straight line; (2) heels apart and feet forming a straight line; (3) one foot in front of the other with the heel against the instep; (4) feet apart, one in front of the other; and (5) one foot in front of the other with the heel against the joint of the big toe. Each ballet position has a corresponding port de bras, or position of the arms and hands.\nMovements may be grouped into several broad types. First, there are quick, earthbound, linking steps\u2014for example, the pas de bourr\u00e9e, a flowing step that may be executed in any direction, and the glissade, a gliding step in which the dancer stretches one foot to the side, front, or back, then stretches the other and brings it in to meet the first.\nSecond, there are jumps, which may be low and light, with the feet battu (\u201cbeaten,\u201d or crossed rapidly in front of and behind each other several times in midair). In the entrechat, the dancer takes off from the fifth position into a vertical jump. In an assembl\u00e9 the dancer brushes one foot out to the side, front, or back while springing off of the other; the two feet then come together in midair (where they may be beaten), and the dancer lands in the fifth position. The pas de chat (\u201cstep of the cat\u201d) is a jump to the side, with first one foot and then the other drawn up beneath the dancer\u2019s body before landing in the fifth position. Higher, more vigorous jumps include the grand jet\u00e9, in which the dancer throws one leg forward into the air, hovers with the legs stretched to the front and back, and then lands on the front leg, either holding a position such as arabesque or attitude or else closing the back foot into the fifth position.\nArabesque and attitude are positions in which the dancer stands on one leg. In arabesque the other leg (called the working leg) is stretched straight out to the back; in attitude, it is bent and may be extended to either the front or the back.\nTurns include the pirouette, which is executed on one leg and on the spot, with the working leg held in a variety of positions, such as attitude, stretched out to the side (\u00e0 la seconde), or with the foot held just above the ankle or at the knee. In the fouett\u00e9 en tournant the working leg is whipped straight out to the side and then bent in, the foot being brought back to the knee of the supporting leg at each revolution. The piqu\u00e9 is a traveling turn, the dancer stepping out onto the supporting leg before turning on it (see piqu\u00e9 work).\nAll of these steps may be performed in numerous encha\u00eenements, or combinations, and with the dancers grouped in many different formations. In classical ballet the formations tend to be symmetrical, with circles or lines framing the main dancers at centre stage. Adagio, or partner work, is crucial to ballet; the man may support the woman in a series of pirouettes or balances and may lift her in many ways. As a general rule, the pas de deux, solo, and group dance alternate fairly regularly, and in the classical pas de deux the two dancers generally separate for individual variations before coming together in a final coda.\nModern dance uses many of the steps and positions of classical dance but often in a very different style. The legs may be turned in and the feet flexed or held loosely rather than pointed (see below Types of dance: modern dance). There is much greater use of the torso, which may twist, bend, or crouch, and more rolls and falls, in which the dancer works on or close to the floor. Much postmodern dance uses ordinary movements, such as running or walking, as well as simple swinging, spiraling, or stretching movements that involve the entire body.\nMany of the steps used in folk dance are like basic versions of ballet steps: small hops and skips; running steps similar to the pas de bour\u00e9e; and more vigorous steps such as the gallop, in which one leg slides to the front or side and the other leg is brought to meet it in the air with a small spring before the dancer lands on it, ready to slide the original leg forward again. Also common are simple turns, where the dancer pivots on one leg, and lifts, where the man catches his partner around the waist and lifts her into the air. Arm and body movements are usually simple and relaxed, with hands held at the waist or hanging at the sides and the body swaying in rhythm to the movement. In some dances the performers remain separate; in others, they hold hands, link arms, or clasp one another around the waist. Steps are usually repeated in long series, but they often follow quite complex and strictly ordered floor patterns\u2014such as the figure eight, in which the dancers weave around one another. Whether single or in pairs, dancers are usually grouped in circles (often two concentric circles moving at the same time) or lines. Within these groupings there are many specific formations; for example, four or more dancers hold hands and move in a circle, or dancers join hands to form an arch under which the others can pass.\nExcept for display, social dances are rarely performed in any strict formation, although dancers may sometimes form themselves spontaneously into lines or circles. Ballroom dances are categorized instead by their step patterns, rhythms, and tempos. Some of the best-known social dances are the waltz, fox-trot, tango, rumba, samba, and cha-cha. The fox-trot is danced in moderate time, with two steps forward and two steps to the side executed in a slow-slow-quick-quick rhythm. The waltz is a three-step dance, and in the cha-cha five steps are executed in a four-beat measure with a slow-slow-quick-quick-slow rhythm.\nThe basic step patterns are elaborated by different turns, the dancers pivoting on one foot, as in the waltz, or changing direction while they walk, as in the fox-trot. There are also different kinds of walk\u2014for example, the chass\u00e9, in which one foot slides to the front, side, or back, the other slides to meet it, and then the first slides forward again. In many ballroom dances the man and woman remain in the same hold throughout, facing each other or turned slightly to the side. The head may turn and the body sway or bend in response to the rhythm and footwork. In the cha-cha the man and woman may also dance separately. With more freedom to move the body and arms, the hips may sway with the steps and the arms swing rhythmically across the torso.\nThe basic steps of the original rock and roll dances are performed in the traditional ballroom hold. Dancers may then \u201cbreak\u201d in order to perform different lifts and turns. For example, the man may hold onto the woman\u2019s hand and pivot her under his arm, the woman may jump up with her legs straddling the man\u2019s waist, or the man may catch hold of the woman\u2019s shoulders and slide her between his legs.\nIn most later rock dances, from the twist to disco, it is much rarer for people to dance as partners. There is also a greater stress on free arm and body movements than on set patterns of steps. Disco enthusiasts may incorporate elements of jazz, modern dance, and gymnastics into their repertoire, executing high kicks, turns, and even backflips.\nChoreography is the art of making dances, the gathering and organization of movement into order and pattern. Most recent works of Western theatre dance have been created by single choreographers, who have been regarded as the authors and owners of their works in a way comparable to writers, composers, and painters. Most social and recreational dances, on the other hand, are products of long evolution, involving innovations that groups of people or anonymous individuals have brought to traditional forms. This evolutionary process is also typical of much non-Western choreography, where both the form and steps of dances are handed down from one generation to another and subject only to gradual and partial change. Even in cultures where it is common for dancers and dancing masters to create their own variations on existing dances, as among the Hopi in northeastern Arizona, it may not be traditional to honour an individual as a particular dance\u2019s creator.\nChoreographers\u2019 Motives And Methods\nWhen choreographers set out to create new works, or possibly rework traditional dances, their impulses or motivations for doing so vary widely. It may be that a particular dance has a function to fulfill, such as marking a celebration, embellishing an opera, or praying for rain. It may be that the piece has no specific function and that the choreographer is simply responding to an outside stimulus\u2014a piece of music that has suggested a structure or movement, perhaps, or a painting, or a theme from literature, or possibly a particular dancer that the choreographer is interested in working with. Or the stimulus may be the choreographer\u2019s desire to express a particular concept or emotion or a fascination with a particular choreographic idea. Such stimuli may, of course, influence the work even if the choreographer is producing it for a specific purpose, though, as with any artist, it is rare that a choreographer\u2019s motives and intentions can be clearly analyzed\u2014particularly during the actual working process.\nThe methods by which different choreographers create their work also vary. Some work closely with the dancers from the beginning, trying out ideas and taking suggestions from the dancers themselves before pulling all of the material together. Others start with clear ideas about the shape of the piece and its content even before going into the studio. The 19th-century choreographer Marius Petipa used small models to work out the groupings of his dances. The amount that any choreographer can do without dancers is limited, because the notation of dance is relatively undeveloped. Whereas a composer can write a complete symphony without meeting the orchestra that is going to play it, dance notation is mostly used in recording rather than creating dances (see below Dance notation).\nThe Three-Phase Choreographic Process\nThe choreographic process may be divided for analytical purposes (the divisions are never distinct in practice) into three phases: gathering together the movement material, developing movements into dance phrases, and creating the final structure of the work.\nGathering the movement material\nThe way in which the choreographer accumulates movement material depends on the tradition in which he works. In certain dance forms it may be simply a question of creating variations within a traditional pattern of movements. For example, dancing masters in the Italian courts of the 14th and 15th centuries simply invented variations on existing dances and published them in dance manuals bearing their own names. Even today many ballet choreographers use as raw material for their pieces the traditional steps and encha\u00eenements that dancers learn in class. The same is true for many of today\u2019s performers of Indian or Middle Eastern dance forms; they may not strictly follow the traditional structure and sequence of movements passed down to them, but they remain faithful to their characteristic styles, retaining the traditional quality of movement and not introducing steps or movements widely different from the original.\nIn modern Western forms choreographers have worked less within established traditions, creating instead a vocabulary and style of movement to suit their own personal visions. But even in the work of pioneering choreographers, it is possible to trace major influences. Martha Graham\u2019s early work, in the 1920s, for example, was strongly influenced by the American Indian and Southeast Asian dance forms used by her mentor, Ruth St. Denis. Merce Cunningham\u2019s technique owed a great deal to classical ballet. Even Vaslav Nijinsky\u2019s ballet Le Sacre du printemps (\u201cThe Rite of Spring\u201d), which audiences at its first performance in 1913 regarded as a complete break with known dance forms, may have been influenced by the rhythmic-movement exercises of the music teacher \u00c9mile Jaques-Dalcroze and by the interest in archaic dance forms already generated by Isadora Duncan and Michel Fokine.\nAlthough each choreographer draws material from diverse sources and often employs contrasting styles, most dance works of a single choreographer show a characteristic style of movement. Dances, however, are rarely if ever a loose collection of isolated movements. One of the most important features of any choreographer\u2019s style is the way in which movement material is connected into dance phrases.\nDeveloping movements into phrases\nA phrase, loosely speaking, is a series of movements bound together by a physical impulse or line of energy and having a discernible beginning and end. (A rough analogy can be made with the way a singer phrases a multiplicity of notes within a single breath.) Many factors work to make the spectator perceive a series of movements as a phrase. The first is the recognition of some kind of logical connection between the movements that prevents them from appearing arbitrary and isolated. It may be that one movement flows easily and naturally into another within the phrase and that there are no awkward transitions or that there is some clearly visible pattern to the movement (such as the basic three-step phrase in the waltz). Rhythm is a significant factor, and movements are often clearly linked by a recognizable pattern of accents. A movement\u2019s accent is measured by its force and duration; thus, a hard, sharp movement has a strong accent, while a soft, gradual movement has a weak one. Even a single movement, such as a head roll, may begin with a strong accent and end with a weak one. In phrases that have perfectly regular rhythm, the strong and weak accents recur in the same sequence and always over the same duration of time.\nDance phrases vary both in length and shape. A phrase may begin with a very forceful movement, or maximum output of energy, that gradually comes to a pause, or it may have its climax somewhere in the middle or at the end. Other dance phrases, in contrast, have an even distribution of energy. These factors determine the way in which the phrase is perceived by, and the effect that it produces on, the spectator. Long, repetitive, evenly paced phrases produce a hypnotic effect, while a series of short phrases with strong climaxes appears nervous and dramatic. One of the distinguishing features of Graham\u2019s early style was her elimination of linking steps and fluid transitions between movements, so that many of her dance phrases were short, stark, and forceful.\nOnce a phrase has been constructed, it can be built onto in many different ways. Perhaps the simplest ways are repetition, in which the same phrase is simply repeated, and accumulation, in which the original phrase is repeated with a new phrase added on each time. Separate dance phrases may also be repeated according to a pattern, one of the most basic being the alternation of two phrases, and another being the passing of one or more phrases from one dancer to another in canonic form. Material within a dance phrase can also be developed in a number of ways to create new material. The simplest of these is a straightforward reversal of the sequence of movements in the phrase, but more complex principles of motif and development and of theme and variation are also common. The principle of theme and variation works on the same initial dance phrase being repeated in a number of different ways; for example, with different numbers of people, at different speeds, with different styles of movement (jerky or smooth), or with different dramatic qualities (happy or sad). In motif and development, material from within the phrase is developed in new ways, for example, by embellishing it with other movements (the same jump but with different arm movements), by imitating it on a different scale (the same jump, only bigger or smaller), or by fragmenting it and repeating only small details.\nCreating the final structure\nThe third phase of the choreographic process, creating the overall structure of the dance, may be influenced by a variety of considerations, including the purpose of the dance. If the work is to be a narrative piece, the plot will obviously determine the way in which the dance material is to be structured. It may have to follow a strict succession of events, create characters in a particular order, and bring the drama to climax at the proper moments. Similarly, if the dance forms part of a ritual, the material may have to strictly follow sanctioned form and procedure.\nThe music determines the structure of a dance work, too\u2014by its length, its arrangement of fast and slow movements, and its treatment of theme. Many of George Balanchine\u2019s works follow the structure of the accompanying score very closely; this is reflected in pieces with such titles as Symphony in Three Movements (1972), set to music by Igor Stravinsky, or Concerto barocco (1940), set to music by Johann Sebastian Bach. Many dance forms actually have the same names as musical forms\u2014such as the rondo, which, by repeating an initial movement in alternation with various contrasting movements, follows the same scheme as its musical counterpart.\nA dance\u2019s purpose and its musical score are outside influences on its structure. But structure may also be organic; in other words, an entire dance piece may arise from a continuous development of movement ideas, each movement working off of the movement that came before. British choreographer Richard Alston\u2019s Doublework (1978), for example, derived its structure from the exploration of the duet form and the repetition of dance material in different contexts. Other movement ideas that may develop in this way are the use of contrasting sections of movement (a section of fast, energetic dancing followed by a slow, meditative passage), the deployment of different numbers and configurations of dancers (a solo followed by an ensemble followed by a trio, and so on), and the manipulation of different floor patterns or different areas of space (a section of leaping movements contrasted with movement executed very close to the ground).\nMovement usually develops organically even when the overall structure of the piece is imposed by a plot or piece of music. In the case of narrative ballets, choreographic ideas may develop into formal motifs while still retaining the ability to represent certain actions or situations in the plot. For example, in Ashton\u2019s La Fille mal gard\u00e9e (1960) ribbons represent the lovers\u2019 emotions; tied into a love knot, they signify their passion, and transformed into a skipping rope and cat\u2019s cradle, they show their innocence. But at the same time, the ribbons are used in a purely formal way, embellishing certain movements or creating elaborate patterns that can be enjoyed solely for their beauty. In even the most dramatic ballets the representation of emotions and events is heavily stylized, and the ordering of the plot is determined as much by aesthetic as by dramatic logic. Many narrative ballets, like those of Petipa, contain sections of nondramatic dance that develop according to the kind of formal choreographic principles described above.\nFinally, the structure of a dance reflects the tradition in which it is created and performed. Ballets in the 19th-century classical tradition tend to last an entire evening and are divided into several acts, with the tragic death or happy marriage of the protagonists occurring at the end. Modern dances are often much shorter, and a single program may include up to a half-dozen pieces. In a performance of the Indian dance form bharata natyam, sections of dramatic and abstract dance follow one another in strict succession for a period lasting up to four and a half hours, while in the kathakali dance form of southwestern India, a single performance of alternating dance and music may go on for 16 hours.\nSince dance is a performing art, the survival of any dance work depends either on its being preserved through tradition or on its being written down in some form. Where tradition is continuous and uninterrupted, changes in style and interpretation (inevitable when different dancers perform the same material) may be corrected and the dance preserved in its original form. But when a tradition is broken (if, for instance, the cultural traditions of one ethnic group encroach on those of another), then dances may not only change radically but may even disappear. For this reason methods of recording dance are important in the preservation of its history.\nEvidence of dance records dates to the ancient Egyptians, who used hieroglyphs to represent dance movements. In India the earliest book discussing dance, the Natya-sastra (\u201cTreatise on the Dramatic Arts\u201d; variously dated from the 2nd century bc to the 3rd century ad), still survives. This work, which is sacred in Indian culture, codifies dance into a series of rules determining the gestures used to depict different themes and emotions. The bharata natyam, a classical dance form based on this treatise, is a good example of a dance tradition that has survived unbroken for many centuries. It only began to founder during the 19th century, partly because Westerners and Indians alike began to deplore its associations with prostitution, but was saved from disappearing altogether when it was developed into a concert form at the beginning of the 20th century. One reason for the long survival of the bharata natyam was its importance in religious ceremonies of Hinduism; in addition, when Indian dances were rarely being performed and were in danger of being lost or of degenerating beyond recognition, the Natya-sastra provided a record of traditional principles and styles for their later revival. Even today, not all dance instructors are familiar with these principles, and purists still fear that certain dances are in danger of disappearing or being completely distorted.\nProminent Notation Methods\nThe absence in the West of any reliable form of notation until the 20th century resulted in a relative paucity of dance traditions when compared to other art forms. While the music, art, and literature of many centuries past is available today, either in the original or in a reproduced form, there is no complete record of any of the ballets choreographed before the 19th century. Even those works that form the backbone of ballet\u2019s classical tradition (Swan Lake, Giselle, and The Sleeping Beauty, for example) have not survived in forms that fully resemble the original choreography.\nDuring the Renaissance dances were recorded through a simple form of verbal abbreviation, with one letter standing for each individual step\u2014as in B for branle or R for r\u00e9v\u00e9rence. This method was adequate because the dances of that time were simple and the individual steps were well known. By the 17th century the increasingly complex floor patterns of certain dances, particularly those of the court ballets, led to the emergence of track-drawing systems, the most sophisticated of which was published in 1700 by Raoul-Auger Feuillet in his Chor\u00e9graphie, ou l\u2019art de d\u00e9crire la danse (\u201cChoreography, or the Art of Describing the Dance\u201d). Feuillet\u2019s work recorded foot positions and combinations of steps as well as floor patterns, but it was unable to register movements in the upper part of the body.\nSubsequent ballet masters turned to a form of notation using stick figures, the first of which was La St\u00e9nochor\u00e9graphie (\u201cThe Art of Writing Dance\u201d), published in 1852 by the French dancer and choreographer Arthur Saint-L\u00e9on. The disadvantage of this system was that it could not record the timing or musical coordination of movements, so that later attempts to produce a system were based on musical notes that would give not only anatomical detail but also the duration of the movement. In the 19th century the most advanced system of this kind was published in Alphabet des mouvements du corps humain (1892; \u201cAlphabet of Movements of the Human Body\u201d), by Vladimir Stepanov, a dancer at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg. Stepanov\u2019s system was used to record many ballets in the Mariinsky\u2019s repertoire; the recordings were the basis of subsequent reconstructions of those ballets by the Sadler\u2019s Wells Ballet in London.\nStepanov\u2019s system still had many disadvantages, one of the most significant being that it was strongly geared toward ballet and could not accommodate the wider range of movements being developed through modern dance techniques. In 1928 Rudolf Laban, a Hungarian dancer, teacher, and choreographer, developed a complex series of principles for analyzing the full range of human movement. His system for recording movements in dance\u2014widely known as Labanotation\u2014had the advantage of being able to record not only the positions of the body and the pattern of the steps but also the way in which movements should be executed (i.e., whether they should be relaxed or forceful and where the accent of the movement should lie).\nChoreology, developed by Joan and Rudolf Benesh in 1955, is based on a more clearly visual rather than symbolic form of notation. It is written on a five-line stave, recording the dancer\u2019s position as viewed from behind. The top line shows the position of the top of the head; the second, the shoulders; the third, the waist; the fourth, the knees; and the fifth, the feet. Special symbols such as lines, dots, and crosses indicate what each part of the body is doing\u2014for example, whether a limb is straight or flexed and in which direction (to the side or front or in a circle) each part is moving. Other symbols show the quality or dynamics of the movement, its rhythm and accent, and the group formations of the dancers. In 1958 Noa Eshkol and Abraham Wachmann proposed a mathematical system in which movement (of the joints, for example) was analyzed anatomically, in degrees of circular movement in either positive or negative directions, with positions of the body being fixed in relation to two coordinates.\nVideo recording is more readily accessible than written notation, though it fails to represent the three-dimensional nature of dance and is unable to record movements when one dancer is concealed behind another. It may be useful when used in tandem with some form of written notation, particularly as it can provide a record of how individual dancers interpret particular roles.\nDifficulties Of Notation\nThe problem with all systems of dance notation is that few choreographers\u2014and even fewer dancers\u2014are literate in them. As currently practiced, dance notation is mostly used only for the recording, rather than the creating and learning, of dances. Given the present method of creating in the studio, it is impossible for a choreographer to take an overall view of the work; it is difficult to make changes or to experiment in the way a composer can, because the choreographer is limited by the relatively short period of time allowed for rehearsals and by practical considerations such as the dancers\u2019 availability and fatigue.\nEven the best system of notation cannot succeed completely, because it cannot alter the fundamental nature of dance. Like any other performing art, dance is essentially ephemeral, existing only at the time of its performance. It can never be properly recorded or preserved, since the way in which dancers interpret a work\u2014their styles, technical abilities, and physical appearance\u2014always change the work each time it is performed.\nTheatrical elements\nMusic, design, and drama have all played important roles in the evolution of dance, and in many cultures dance has actually been inseparable from these arts. The Greek word mousik\u0113, for example, referring to music, poetry, and dance as one form, reflected the integral relation between these three arts in classical Greek drama. In the early European ballets, dance, music, drama, and spectacle were equally inseparable.\nEven where dance is perceived as an independent art form, most choreography is still accompanied by one or more of these elements. Choreographers generally regard them as integral parts of the works. Sound and visual effects, for example, can clarify the dramatic effect of a dance movement and can also help the spectator to perceive more fully its aesthetic qualities. In a general way, music, design, and drama also work together to heighten the experience of dance as something removed from everyday experience, inspiring a special attention in the spectator.\nThe most important element of dance is music, and it is rare for dance of any kind\u2014social, theatrical, or religious\u2014to develop without musical accompaniment. The close relation between dance and music is based on the fact that both are organized around rhythmic pattern; thus, the rhythm of the accompanying music may be used to determine the rhythm of the dance, to give it emphasis, or to help the dancers maintain the same beat.\nNearly all physical activity is done rhythmically, as in the beating of the heart, the flow of the breath, and the actions of walking and running. Work activities such as digging, sawing, scrubbing, or planting also tend to fall into a regular rhythm, because that is the most efficient and economical way of working the muscles and pacing the effort. When the rhythm is perfectly even, a regular pattern of time and force is established\u2014each inhalation and exhalation of the breath and each stride or stroke of the saw taking the same amount of time and using the same amount of energy. In dance, too, the setting up of regular, efficient rhythms may also be important in allowing the dancer to continue dancing for a long time, whether the dancer be a \u1e62\u016bf\u012b dervish or a disco dancer.\nIndividual dance movements also have a natural rhythm that determines the way in which they can be executed. A high leap, for example, can take only a certain amount of time (the force of gravity preventing a very prolonged duration and the height of the leap precluding a very quick one). Thus, the rhythm, or pattern of accents, imposed on the leap can be neither very sharp nor very sustained.\nEven though choreographers are limited to those rhythms permitted by the various dance movements, they do not always use those that are most natural and efficient. It may be easier for a dancer to perform a section of runs and jumps at a moderate, evenly paced rhythm, but this may not produce the effect that the choreographer wants.\nChoreographers vary dance rhythms for many reasons, the most basic being the wish to create different qualities of movement\u2014a slow, even rhythm, for example, to create softness and fluidity, or a fast, asymmetrical rhythm to make the movement attenuated or uneven. Varying the qualities of movement may also have a dramatic function, rhythm often determining whether a movement appears joyous, calm, or anguished. Also, choreographers following a musical score may manipulate the rhythms of the dance movements either to match or counterpoint those of the music.\nRhythm is a vital element of all dances in all cultures, even in those African and Asian dances whose complex rhythms are often imperceptible to the Western observer. In these forms, the drummer may play a different rhythm with each hand, one setting the basic pulse and the other producing a pattern of sound to reflect the mood or meaning of the dance. The dancer, too, may set up one rhythm in the stamping of the feet while marking out another in the torso, arms, or head, thus producing a highly varied and irregular pattern of sounds and movements. It is rare for dance not to follow any kind of rhythmic organization, just as poets who do not follow a strict metre still emphasize and manipulate the rhythms of language.\nMany of the terms used in reference to dance rhythm, such as tempo, dynamics, and beat, are derived from music, as most dance is either set to music or accompanied by it. Particularly in cases where the choreographer sets the dance to a previously composed score, the music may determine both the length and structure of the work and even the exact phrasing of the movements. At its simplest, there may be an exact correspondence between the notes and the dance steps, as in a basic waltz melody. On a more complex scale, as in the music visualization popular with such choreographers as Ruth St. Denis, dancers or groups of dancers are assigned to specific instruments and are choreographed in such a manner that they duplicate on stage the relationships among the instruments in the orchestra.\nBalanchine was said to have translated music into spatial terms, manipulating the floor patterns and the grouping of the dancers so that they corresponded to the appearance and development of particular chord sequences, rhythmic patterns, melodies, or sections of counterpoint. Nijinsky, on the other hand, in L\u2019Apr\u00e8s-midi d\u2019un faune (1912; \u201cAfternoon of a Faun\u201d), used Claude Debussy\u2019s music purely for atmosphere, permitting it to set the mood rather than influence the organization of movements.\nMusic can determine the style or dramatic quality of a dance. In fact, composers are often instructed to emphasize or clarify the drama already inherent in the choreography. In Western ballet it is common for important characters to have their own musical themes expressing and identifying their personalities or for whole sections of music to be written in the style of the character dancing to them\u2014as in the sweet, tinkling music that Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky composed for the Sugar Plum Fairy in The Nutcracker. In plotless dances music and movement also reflect and reinforce each other, as in Ashton\u2019s Monotones (1965\u201366), where the clear, uncluttered lines of the choreography reflect the limpidity of Erik Satie\u2019s music.\nCertain choreographers in the second half of the 20th century worked either without music or in such a way that music and dance remained wholly independent of each other. Merce Cunningham choreographed in silence, so that while the music helped to determine the overall mood of the dance, it rarely affected the dance\u2019s phrasing and structure and often did not even last for the same length of time. Cunningham believed that too close a correspondence between dance and music would not really help the audience to perceive the two forms more clearly but, rather, would have the opposite effect of each canceling the other out. Other choreographers, such as Jerome Robbins in Moves (1959), used complete silence even in performance, so that the natural sounds of the dance movements formed the only accompaniment, leaving the spectator to concentrate solely on the patterns and rhythms of the movement. Others have used natural or electronic sounds and even spoken words in an effort to separate dance from a close relationship with music while still providing it with some relationship to sound.\nIt is likely that music accompanied dance from earliest times, either through sounds such as stamping, clapping, and singing that the dancers made themselves, through percussion, or through various wind instruments such as pipes or flutes. In modern Afro-Caribbean dances it is possible to discern the effects that drumming and percussive-sounding movements can have on dancing\u2014in maintaining the dancer\u2019s beat, providing accompaniment, and intensifying the dance\u2019s emotional power. A slow, heavy beat can create a mood of tension or expectancy, while a fast beat may build the dance to a joyous or dramatic climax. The rhythms of the drums, reinforced by clapping and stamping, can amplify the rhythms of the movements (the sway of the pelvis, the rippling of the spine) as well as set up a complex counterpoint with them to produce variations in tempo and phrasing.\nClapping and stamping can also play an important role in producing the hypnotic effect necessary to certain ritual dances, uniting both spectators and dancers in a single world of sound and clearing their minds of everyday preoccupations. In the war and hunting dances of many tribes, sound is often used in an imitative way, with the dancers uttering war cries or animal sounds in order to further their transformation into warriors or the hunters\u2019 prey.\nIn many Indian and Asian classical dances, stamping also plays an important role in maintaining the beat. Music, too, is very important, and many dances are accompanied by specific songs or musical compositions. In the Middle Eastern raq\u1e63 sharq\u012b, the song or music establishes the mood or narrative situation of the dance, which the performer then interprets through movement. In the Indian bharata natyam the dancer is accompanied by a singer, who marks the movements with a tiny pair of cymbals while singing out instructions to the dancer. Bells tied around the dancer\u2019s ankles also accompany the movements with their sound. Just as in Western theatre dance, the music accompanying these different dance forms is important both for its dramatic function\u2014emphasizing moments of climax or different emotional states\u2014and for its ability to increase the spectator\u2019s pleasure in and awareness of the movement.\nSocial dance is nearly always accompanied by music, which not only helps to keep the dancers in time with each other but also increases the power and excitement of the dance, encouraging the dancers to abandon themselves to their movements. Sometimes individual dances have developed in response to a new musical form, as in jazz and rock and roll; but dance has also had an important influence on music, as in the Renaissance, when musicians were required to produce music to accompany the new dances that were developing.\nChoreographers and composers alike often feel limited and frustrated when they have to create their own works within the limits of someone else\u2019s artistic conception. The most fruitful relationship is often one in which an element of collaboration exists between composer and choreographer from the start. Fokine\u2019s collaboration with Stravinsky on The Firebird (1910) is an example of both score and choreography emerging from long and detailed discussion, during which each artist remained sensitive to the other\u2019s wishes and to the overall idea of the work. There are no rules, however, and while some choreographers dislike being subjected to the limitations and demands of a musical score, others regard them as important creative stimuli.\nMost dances have a traditional relationship with particular musical works or with particular kinds of music. Although ballet has always had a close relation to classical (as opposed to popular) music, many people have found unacceptable its use of established masterpieces that were not specially composed for ballet. It was not until the 20th century that this practice came into being, with Isadora Duncan performing to Richard Wagner, Johannes Brahms, and Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Chopin and L\u00e9onide Massine choreographing his symphonic ballets to the works of Hector Berlioz, Brahms, and Tchaikovsky.\nDuring the 20th century a close relationship also existed between modern dance and contemporary music, often music of a highly experimental nature. Thus, choreographers used, or even commissioned, works from composers such as Arnold Schoenberg, Anton Webern, Luciano Berio, Aaron Copland, and John Cage. But it is common for both contemporary ballet and modern dance to use a variety of musical forms: modern dance may use early classical or non-Western music, while ballet may be performed to popular music. Also, as mentioned above, the concept of musical accompaniment has been stretched to include any kind of natural sound, electronic score, spoken text, or even silence.\nSet And Design\nJust as music can enhance the mood of a dance and influence the way in which the spectator interprets its dramatic content, so visual elements such as costume, makeup, masks, props, lighting, and stage sets may also amplify certain qualities of dance movement. Because set and design are vital elements of theatre, they are most important in those types of theatre dance, whether dramatic or abstract, in which dancers perform before nonparticipating spectators. Therefore, most discussion of the use of visual elements in dance centres on theatre dance.\nSuch visual elements as costume and makeup do play a role in participatory social and ritual dances, however. In most war and hunting dances the participants not only imitate the movements of warriors or prey but also use weapons, masks, makeup, and animal skins to heighten the realism of the dance. The wearing of animal skins is a common means in many such dances to magically acquire the animals\u2019 strength or agility\u2014hence the eagle feathers worn in the headdresses of many North American Indians or the deerskin shoes traditionally worn by the Scots.\nIn other ritual dances the dancers\u2019 clothes may well possess magical or religious significance. The \u1e62\u016bf\u012b dancer begins his ritual by divesting himself of a black cloak that is symbolic of the tomb. Body painting in symbolic colours is characteristic of many tribal dances as a means of keeping away evil spirits, while the embroidery on a number of European national costumes is often a relic from the days when it functioned as a magic charm. Most important of all, the wearing of special clothes in ritual dances, as in rituals not involving dance, is a way of signaling and preserving the sacred quality of the occasion and removing it from ordinary life.\nIn festive dances, too, clothes and ornamentation play an important role in embellishing the movement and heightening the atmosphere of gaiety, pomp, or excitement. Social dances frequently have special clothes associated with them\u2014such as the evening suits and voluminous sequined dresses of ballroom dancing or the tight, black clothes of rock and roll. Such clothes are not only the fashion of the era but also the uniform that identifies the dancer more strongly with the dance and the other dancers. Like music, clothes can help dancers surrender their everyday selves to the dance.\nIn theatre dances everywhere, the use of visual effects is crucial to the power of the dance. In the Indian kathakali, facial makeup is central to the portrayal of character. Differently coloured beards are used to represent good or bad characters, while the colour of the makeup is even more revealing: a green and red painted face represents an evil and ferocious character, a green and white face is for heroes and noblemen, a pinkish-yellow face is for women characters and sages, and black and red makeup is used for female demons.\nThe bharata natyam dancer relies more purely on the mudras for character portrayal, but makeup and costume are still highly important. The graceful, sinuous lines of the dancer\u2019s movements are emphasized by the bare torso and flowing skirt or trousers, while the intricate detail of the mudras is reflected in the rich jewels, flowers, and decoration of the costume.\nCostume And Stage Sets In Western Theatre Dance\nMasks have also been used as a means of characterization in many dance forms, from ancient Egypt to the early European court ballets. One reason early ballet dancers were limited in their dance technique was that the masks they wore to represent different characters were so elaborate and their wigs and clothes so heavy that it was scarcely possible to jump or to move across the floor with any speed or lightness.\nThe early ballets not only had elaborate costumes but also were performed in spectacular settings. The Mountain Ballet, performed in the early 17th century, had five enormous mountains as its stage scenery, in the middle of which was a \u201cField of Glory.\u201d The dance historian Gaston Vuillier later described the scene:\nFame opened the ballet and explained its subject. Disguised as an old woman she rode an ass and carried a wooden trumpet. Then the mountains opened their sides, and quadrilles of dancers came out, in flesh coloured attire, having bellows in their hands, led by the nymph Echo, wearing bells for headdresses, and on their bodies lesser bells, and carrying drums. Falsehood hobbled forward on a wooden leg, with masks hung over his coat, and a dark lantern in his hand.\nIt was even known for ballets to be staged outdoors, with mock sea battles staged on artificial lakes.\nGradually, as dancers shed their encumbering costumes and stage designs were simplified, dance movement and mime became more important in the depiction of plot and character. Set design and costume were tailored to the ballet\u2019s theme and atmosphere, rather than swamping the choreography with their elaborate opulence. The development of gas lighting meant that magical effects could be created with simple painted scenery, and though wire contraptions were sometimes used to fly the ballerina (as a sylph or bird) across the stage, the development of pointe work (dancing on the toes) meant that the dancer could appear weightless and ethereal without any artificial aids. In place of highly decorative mythological or classical scenes, there were poetic evocations of landscape, and the ballerinas were either dressed in simple white dresses or in colourful national dress. The poet, critic, and librettist Th\u00e9ophile Gautier described the typical \u201cwhite\u201d or ethereal Romantic ballet as follows:\nThe twelve marble and gold houses of the Olympians were relegated to the dust of the storehouse and only the romantic forests and valleys lit by the charming German moonlight of Heinrich Heine\u2019s ballads exist.\u2026 This new style brought a great abuse of white gauze, of tulle and tarlatans and shadows melted into mist through transparent dresses. White was almost the only colour used.\nThis unity of dance and design was not to last, however. By the end of the 19th century most of the productions mounted at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg were lavish spectacles in which set and costume had little relevance to the ballet\u2019s theme, being designed simply to please the audiences\u2019 taste for opulence. At the beginning of the 20th century one of the first revolutionary steps that Michel Fokine took in trying to change this state of affairs was to dress his dancers in costumes as nearly authentic as possible\u2014for example, by replacing the prevailing tutu with clinging draperies (as in the Egyptian costumes for Eunice [1908]) and by dispensing with the dancers\u2019 shoes. (Actually, the theatre management did not allow dancers to go barefoot, but they had red toenails painted onto their tights to achieve the same impression.)\nThis move was part of Fokine\u2019s general commitment to the idea that movement, music, and design should be integrated into an aesthetic and dramatic whole. His collaboration with designers such as L\u00e9on Bakst and Alexandre Benois were as important as his musical collaboration with Stravinsky. Sets and costumes not only reflected the period in which the ballet was set but also helped to create the dramatic mood or atmosphere\u2014as in Le Spectre de la rose (1911; \u201cThe Spirit of the Rose\u201d), where the exquisite rose-petaled costume of the spectre, or spirit, seemed almost to emit a magical perfume, and where the simple naturalism of the sleeping girl\u2019s bedroom emphasized her dreaming innocence.\nIn the newly emerging modern dance, experiments with set, lighting, and costume design were also significant. One of the pioneers in this field was Loie Fuller, a solo dancer whose performances in the 1890s and early 1900s consisted of very simple movements with complex visual effects. Swathing herself in yards of diaphanous material, she created elaborate shapes and transformed herself into a variety of magical phenomena. These illusions were enhanced by coloured lights and slide projections playing across the floating material.\nElaborate lighting and costumes were also used by Ruth St. Denis, whose dances frequently evoked ancient and exotic cultures. At the opposite extreme Martha Graham, who began her career as a dancer with St. Denis\u2019 company, strove to eliminate all unnecessary ornamentation in her designs. Costumes were made out of simple jersey and cut along stark lines that clearly revealed the dancers\u2019 movements. Simple but dramatic lighting suggested the mood of the piece. Graham also pioneered the use of sculpture in dance works, replacing painted scenery and elaborate props with simple, free-standing structures. These had a number of functions: suggesting, often symbolically, the place or theme of the work; creating new levels and areas of stage space; and also illuminating the overall design of the piece.\nWhile it has remained common for choreographers to use elaborately realistic sets and costumes, as in Kenneth MacMillan\u2019s Romeo and Juliet in 1965, most choreographers have tended to adopt a minimal approach, with costumes and scenery simply suggesting the ballet\u2019s characters and location rather than representing them in detail. One reason for this development has been the move away from narrative to plotless, or formal, works in both ballet and modern dance, where there is no longer any need for visual effects to provide narrative background. Balanchine set many of his works on a bare stage with the dancers dressed only in practice costumes, feeling that this would allow the spectators to see the lines and patterns of the dancers\u2019 movements more clearly.\nSet, costume, and lighting design are important in narrative as well as formal dance in helping the audience maintain the special attention that theatre demands. They can also influence strongly the way in which the choreography is perceived, either by creating a mood (sombre or festive, depending on the colour and ornamentation used) or by strengthening a choreographic image or concept. In Richard Alston\u2019s Wildlife (1984) the geometrically shaped kites suspended from the flies actually inspired some of the dancers\u2019 sharply angled movements as well as making them visually more striking in performance.\nCostume, too, can alter the appearance of movement: a skirt can give fuller volume to turns or to high leg extensions, while a close-fitting leotard reveals every detail of the body\u2019s movements. Some choreographers, trying to emphasize the nontheatrical or nonspectacular aspects of dance, have dressed their dancers in ordinary street clothes in order to give a neutral, everyday look to their movements, and they have often dispensed entirely with set and lighting.\nSet design and lighting (or their absence) can help to frame the choreography and to define the space in which it appears. The space in which a dance occurs has, in fact, a crucial influence on the way movement is perceived. Thus, a small space can make the movement look bigger (and possibly more cramped and urgent), while a large space can lessen its scale and possibly make it appear more remote. Similarly, a cluttered stage, or one with only a few lighted areas, may make the dance appear compressed, even fragmented, while a clearly lighted, open space may make the movement appear unconfined. Two choreographers who had been most innovative in their use of set and lighting were Alwin Nikolais and Merce Cunningham. The former has used props, lighting, and costumes to create a world of strange, often inhuman shapes\u2014as in his Sanctum (1964). The latter has often worked with sets that almost dominate the dancing, either by filling the stage with a clutter of objects (some of which are simply things taken from the outside world, such as cushions, television sets, chairs, or bits of clothing) or\u2014as in Walkaround Time (1968)\u2014by using elaborate constructions around which the dance takes place, often partly concealed. As with his use of music, Cunningham\u2019s sets were often conceived independently of the choreography and were used to create a complex visual field rather than to reflect the dancing.\nPerhaps the most important influence on the way spectators perceive dance is the place in which it is performed. Religious dances usually take place within sacred buildings or on sacred ground, thus preserving their spiritual character. Most theatre dance also occurs in a special building or venue, heightening the audience\u2019s sense that it has entered a different world. Most venues create some kind of separation between the dancers and the audience in order to intensify this illusion. A theatre with a proscenium stage, in which an arch separates the stage from the auditorium, creates a marked distance. Performance in the round, in which the dancers are surrounded by spectators on all sides, probably lessens both the distance and the illusion. In dance forms that do not traditionally take place in a theatre, such as Afro-Caribbean dance, the intimacy between audience and dancer is very close, and the former may often be called upon to participate.\nThe theatre space not only influences the relationship between the audience and the dancer but is also closely related to the style of the choreography. Thus, in the early court ballets, spectators sat on three sides of the dancers, often looking down at the stage, because the intricate floor patterns woven by the dancers, rather than their individual steps, were important. Once ballet was introduced into the theatre, however, dance had to develop in such a way that it could be appreciated from a single, frontal perspective. This is one reason turned-out positions were emphasized and extended, for they allowed the dancer to appear completely open to the spectators and, in particular, to move sideways gracefully without having to turn away from them in profile.\nMany modern choreographers, wishing to present dance as part of ordinary life and to challenge the way in which people look at it, have used a variety of nontheatrical venues to dispel the illusion or glamour of the performance. Choreographers such as Meredith Monk, Trisha Brown, and Twyla Tharp, working in the 1960s and \u201970s, performed dances in parks, streets, museums, and galleries, often without publicity or without a viewing charge. In this way dance was meant to \u201chappen\u201d among the people instead of in a special context. Even the most surprising or nonglamorous venue, however, cannot entirely dispel the sense of distance between dancer and audience and between dance and ordinary life.\nThroughout history there has been a rough division between dramatic dance, which expresses or imitates emotion, character, and narrative action, and purely formal dance, which stresses the lines and patterns of movement itself (see above Dance as dramatic expression or abstract form). The type and function of dramatic dance vary considerably, including full-length theatrical works (in which dance is used to tell a story and present specific characters), hunting dances (in which the dancers\u2019 movements imitate those of a particular animal), and courtship dances (which may contain only a few pantomimic gestures, such as a lift, a curtsy, or a mock kiss, to convey meaning).\nBecause dance movements are often closely related to everyday forms of physical expression, there is an expressive quality inherent in nearly all dancing. This quality is used extensively in dramatic dance to communicate action or emotion\u2014for example, the aggression in stamping movements, the exhilaration communicated by jumping, and the dragging motions of despair. Mime, or narrative gesture, is also used. Mime can either imitate movement realistically\u2014in a death scene, for example, where the killer assumes a ferocious expression and imitates strangling a victim\u2014or it can function as a symbol\u2014as in the circling movement of the arms in ballet to represent dancing or in pointing to the fourth finger to represent marriage. Dance movements are often accompanied by other elements, such as masks, costume, music, acting, singing, recitation, and even film, to help communicate the dramatic content.\nCultural distinction between dramatic and formal dance\nMusicologist Curt Sachs argued that the division between dramatic and formal dance in tribal cultures followed the division between hunting and planter cultures. While the accuracy of his claim may be hard to establish, it can help to illuminate the different types and function of dance that lie at the root of such a division. In hunting dances (and war dances as well) the dancers\u2019 movements are dramatically charged, expressing a state of excitement or aggression and frequently imitating the movements of animals or fighting men, even to the point of manipulating weapons. Imitative sounds increase the power of the illusion, as does the wearing of masks, makeup, or animal skins. The effect on both dancer and spectator is to be drawn into a fictional world, in which the dancers become the people or animals that they represent and the story or situation enacted by the dance takes on an immediate reality. Any successful dramatic dance should, in fact, produce this effect, even if the dancers do not actually feel the emotions they are representing or the spectators respond as if the imitation were real.\nIn the dances of planter cultures, Sachs argued, the movements tend to be smaller and not directly imitative. The groupings of the dancers and the floor patterns traced by their steps, on the other hand, tend to be much more complex and ordered. In addition, the sequence of movements tends to be more repetitive and the dancers\u2019 movements are more uniform. Such formal dances are often performed as part of a ritual propitiation of the gods in order to assure good weather and successful harvests. Although their movements may not be imitative, the repetitive patterns often represent such natural occurrences as the cycle of the seasons, the waxing and waning of the Moon, and the growing of vegetation, and they even evoke more abstract entities such as space and time. The effect may thus be one of fusing the dancers and spectators with some aspect of the natural world. At the same time the dance may produce an effect similar to the repetitive chanting of prayer or meditation, emptying the mind of its usual preoccupations and focusing it on the object of worship. In fact, the power of dance in achieving this type of spiritual discipline is peculiarly strong, since the repetitive movements work kinesthetically as well as aurally and visually. As a consequence, mind and body are equally absorbed into the ritual.\nEven where formal dances are not part of a ritual (as in modern plotless dance works), the movement of the dancers may produce an effect not dissimilar to that described above. Space, time, and the force of gravity may be made apparent to the spectator through the trajectories that the dancers make in space, through the configurations that they form on the dance floor, through the duration of the dance phrases, and through the alternating sensations of weight and weightlessness created by falls and jumps. In a similar way, too, the audience may experience a special focusing of attention, a draining of the usual habits of perception through the kinesthetic, visual, and aural power of the movement and music.\nMany extant tribal dances can be categorized as either imitative or formal, as can the European folk dances that developed out of earlier tribal dance forms. Courtship dances, the descendants of ancient courtship and fertility dances, still retain overt imitations of flirtatiousness. Other dances have similarly retained their early formal character, even, in some cases, retaining the symbolic significance of their patterns. In Ukrainian dances descended from pagan Moon-worshiping ritual, the circling of the dancers represents the way the Moon influences the work in the fields, and the final pivot represents the flourishing of the corn. In Armenian carpet-weaving dances, the complex floor patterns mimic the action of the work process.\nDrama in Western theatre dance\nWhen dance developed into a form of spectacle, particularly of a secular kind, it was frequently allied to the telling of a story and the depiction of characters. Mimed gesture was often prominent in such dance dramas\u2014for example, in ancient Greece, where the gestures of the chorus illustrated the drama\u2019s major themes. There the mime was often naturalistic: a hand on the head to represent grief or the stretching upward of the arms to express worship. During the later, cosmopolitan period of the Roman Empire, dance and mime were popular entertainment for audiences drawn from a variety of linguistic backgrounds. The highly sophisticated pantomime used by these dancers formed the basis of the improvised mime drama of the 16th-century Italian commedia dell\u2019arte and, later, the techniques of 20th-century mime artists such as Marcel Marceau.\nThe early European court ballets were also oriented toward dramatic spectacle, though the dance movement itself was not highly expressive and mimed gesture was limited. Other dramatic elements, usually visual effects or speech, communicated the essential points of the story. One of the first choreographers to extend dance movement so that it could be dramatically expressive was the English dancer and ballet master John Weaver, who in his ballet The Loves of Mars and Venus (1717) experimented with giving the characters gestures to express their individual personalities. Later in the 18th century Jean-Georges Noverre reacted against the purely decorative form into which ballet had developed. He believed that mime should be as close to natural gesture as possible and that dance movement should not be meaninglessly decorative but should reflect the ballet\u2019s action.\nNoverre\u2019s ideas were partly realized in the Romantic ballet of the early 19th century, which strove to give movement a greater poetic expressiveness. Developments in dance technique, notably that of dancing en pointe (\u201con one\u2019s toes,\u201d or in toe shoes), gave dancers a wider range of movement to express character and action, although conventional or symbolic mime was also used to tell parts of the story. By the end of the century, however, choreography was once again seldom concerned with plot and character, and long sections of mime (often incomprehensible even to the dancers) were used to tell whatever story there was in the dance. The reforms proposed by Fokine at the beginning of the 20th century, like those of Noverre two centuries before, demanded more naturally expressive mime and dance movement that illuminated theme and character and were an essential component of the dance.\nFokine\u2019s own work reflected these ideas faithfully. He experimented with angular movement reminiscent of archaic Greece in Daphnis et Chlo\u00e9 (1912; \u201cDaphnis and Chlo\u00e9\u201d), developed individual styles for different characters (such as the jerky wooden movements of the puppet Petrushka), and brought mime much closer to natural gesture than the symbolic code previously used. This naturalism still characterizes ballet; the expressive qualities of dance movement and simple, dramatic gestures almost entirely displace conventional mime, and even in revivals of the 19th-century classics, traditional mime is usually kept to a minimum so that audiences have no trouble following it.\nThe founders of modern dance, Isadora Duncan, Mary Wigman, Martha Graham, and Doris Humphrey, also reacted against the lack of expression in ballet. Like Fokine, they believed that most ballet dancing was mere decorative acrobatics, but while Fokine was happy to continue using exotic or archaic themes for his new, naturalistic ballets, these later choreographers believed that dance should address subjects of greater relevance and profundity. The kinds of movement with which the modern dance choreographers expressed these themes had little of conventional ballet technique about them. Eschewing mime, particularly that associated with ballet, as well as the traditional ballet vocabulary, they sought to make the whole body dramatically expressive. (See below Theatre dance: Modern dance.)\nThroughout the 20th century, ballet, like modern dance, moved toward a concern with more serious issues. In works such as Antony Tudor\u2019s Jardin aux lilas (1936; \u201cThe Lilac Garden\u201d), Peter Darrell\u2019s Prisoners (1957), Gerald Arpino\u2019s Clowns (1968), and Kenneth MacMillan\u2019s My Brother, My Sisters (1978), choreographers engaged subject matter ranging from emotional and psychological conflict to war and social issues.\nIn the avant-garde dance of the 1970s and \u201980s, experiments were made in expanding narrative potential by incorporating nondance elements (almost turning full circle back to the early court ballets). At times dance was accompanied by mime, acting, and singing as well as a multitude of visual effects. In some cases choreographers collaborated with artists working in other forms, such as music, drama, and the visual arts, and they thought of dance less as a single discipline than as a broadly based theatre art. Most of these experimental works had some kind of dramatic or conceptual content, although they avoided conventional forms of narration and expression. Events were rarely presented in chronological order, and the distinction between reality, symbolism, and fantasy was often blurred.\nThe division of dance into types can be made on many different grounds. Function (e.g., theatrical, religious, recreational) is an obvious ground, but distinctions can also be made between tribal, ethnic, and folk dance, between amateur and professional, and above all between different genres and styles.\nGenre and style are relatively ambiguous terms. They depend on analyses of movement style, structure, and performance context (i.e., where the dance is performed, who is watching, and who is dancing) as well as on a cluster of general cultural attitudes concerning the role and value of dance in society. Genre usually refers to a self-contained formal tradition such as ballet, within which there may be further subgenres, such as classical and modern ballet. (Some critics consider modern dance as an independent genre with a subgenre of postmodern dance, but others subsume both categories under ballet, along with other theatre dance forms such as jazz.) Within subgenres, different styles can be distinguished, such as those of Ashton, MacMillan, and Balanchine in modern ballet and Graham and Cunningham in modern dance. Style as used here embraces many elements, including a preference for certain kinds of movement (fast, slow, simple, or intricate) or for particular kinds of energy and attack (sharp, edgy, and hard, as opposed to soft and fluid). It also embraces different ways of phrasing movement or of arranging dancers into groups, as well as an interest in certain kinds of music or design.\nPerhaps the most obvious division between types is that between theatre and non-theatre dance. The separation of dancer and spectator in theatre dance has tremendous influence on the style of the dance itself and on its reception as an art form. In theatre dance the professionalism of dancer and choreographer, the presentation of dramatic and formal movement, the use of visual effects, and even the philosophical question of the role of the spectator reach their most sophisticated level. In non-theatre dance the unity of dancer and spectator, of observation and participation, means that the dance styles and even the function within the social group are quite different from those of theatre dance.\nOf course, the division between the two types is not as clear in practice as in theory. For example, although ethnic and folk dances are not, in theory, theatre dances, many of them are preserved, choreographed, and presented to audiences in theatrical settings. Some scholars have even argued that ballet is an ethnic dance form that grew out of the European dance tradition. On the other hand, Indian and Southeast Asian dance forms are usually called ethnic dances, but within these traditions there are numerous classical dances whose theatrical settings and elaborate choreographies qualify them as theatre dances.\nAmong the theatre dances, this section discusses the two major Western genres, ballet and modern dance, as well as Indian classical dance. Among the non-theatre dance forms, this section discusses tribal and ethnic dance, folk dance, and social dance.\nBallet has been the dominant genre in Western theatre dance since its development as an independent form in the 17th century, and its characteristic style of movement is still based on the positions and steps developed in the court dances of the 16th and 17th centuries (see above Basic steps and formations). Perhaps the most basic feature of the ballet style is the turned-out position of the legs and feet, in which the legs are rotated in the hip socket to an angle of 90 degrees and the feet point outward. This position gives the body an open, symmetrical appearance, and it also facilitates the high leg extensions and fast turns typical of ballet. Openness is most characteristic of the ballet dancer\u2019s stance, for the head is nearly always lifted and the arms held out in extended curves. Even when the dancer executes fast or energetic steps, the arms rarely move in a way that is not fluid, calm, and gracefully extended, and they are frequently held in positions that either frame the face or form a harmonious relation to the position of the legs. The body is nearly always held erect, apart from controlled arches in the back or a slight turning of the shoulders toward or away from the working leg. This positioning of the shoulders, called \u00e9paulement, gives a sculpted, three-dimensional quality to the dancer\u2019s positions.\nWhenever the ballet dancer\u2019s foot is not flat on the floor, it is pointed, and, of course, women dancers (and occasionally men) frequently dance on the tips of their toes with the aid of blocked shoes. Dancing en pointe lends lightness and airiness to the dancer\u2019s movements, and the pointed toe extends the line of the leg\u2014particularly when it is raised in the air, as in an arabesque.\nThe long vertical line is the other basic feature of ballet: verticality in the upright stance of the body, in the high leg extensions, and above all in the aerial quality of the movement. Ballet dancers rarely move close to the ground, and they frequently seem to defy gravity through the height of their jumps and their vigorous batterie (beating together of the legs in midair), through the speed and multiplicity of their turns, and through the fast linking steps that seem to move them effortlessly, almost without touching the floor, from one virtuoso movement to another. In ballet the stress and effort of the dancer\u2019s movements are always concealed beneath the fluid, graceful surface of the dance and the perfect repose of the face and torso. This gives the dance its characteristic qualities of dignity and control, which it inherited from the early court ballets, where the movements were designed to show off the aristocratic polish of the dancers.\nBallet has, of course, undergone many stylistic alterations. The Romantic style of the early to mid-19th century was much softer\u2014less studded with virtuosic jumps and turns\u2014than the classical style of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Russian ballet, frequently regarded as the paradigm of the classical school, is itself a blend of the soft and decorative French school, the more brittle and virtuosic style of the Italians, and the vigorous athleticism of Russian folk dances.\nThe design of classical ballet is traditionally symmetrical in the shapes made by the dancers\u2019 bodies, in the grouping of the dancers on stage, and even in the structure of the whole dance. For example, if two principal dancers perform a pas de deux (a dance for two), other dancers on stage remain still, are arranged in symmetrical framing patterns, or move in harmony with the main dancing, not distracting from it. Even when large groups of dancers move, they are usually arranged in formal lines or circles. Jean-Georges Noverre in the 18th century and Michel Fokine in the first decades of the 20th both argued that this kind of formal symmetry was detrimental to the dramatic naturalism of ballet. Fokine\u2019s own choreography encouraged the use of less rigid and artificial groupings in later ballet, as in Kenneth MacMillan\u2019s dramatic works, where the crowd scenes are often composed of asymmetrical groups that rarely seem artificial.\nInnovations in the 20th century\nFokine\u2019s reforms were a major influence on the development of 20th-century ballet. Particularly in the works that he created for Serge Diaghilev\u2019s company, the Ballets Russes, he showed the range of different dance styles that classical ballet was capable of absorbing, helping to pave the way for more radical innovation. For example, in Chopiniana (1908; later called Les Sylphides), a virtually plotless ballet that recalled the earlier Romantic tradition, Fokine created a soft and uncluttered style that contained no bravura feats of jumping, turning, or batterie. Arm movements were simple and unaffected, the grouping of the dancers had a fluid, plastic quality, and above all there was a flowing, lyrical line in the phrasing and movement.\nIn Prince Igor (1909) and L\u2019Oiseau de feu (1910; The Firebird) Fokine incorporated the vigorous style and athletic steps of Russian folk dances. These works revealed his talent for organizing large crowds of dancers on stage and transforming their previously ornamental function into a powerful dramatic force. Neither ballet is longer than a single act, because Fokine believed that the full-length ballet was generally both an excuse for, and the cause of, useless choreographic padding, and that a work should last only as long as its theme required.\nFor all its stylistic variations, Fokine\u2019s choreography was couched largely in the classical idiom. Two other choreographers working with the Ballets Russes, Vaslav Nijinsky and his sister Bronislava Nijinska, produced works of a more radical nature. In Jeux (1913; \u201cGames\u201d), Nijinsky was one of the first choreographers to introduce a modern theme and modern design into ballet. Based on his own (rather erroneous) idea of a tennis match, the choreography incorporated sporting movements and dancers in modern dress. In The Rite of Spring, perhaps Nijinsky\u2019s most innovative work, the dancers were arranged in massed groupings and executed harsh, primitive movements, the legs turned in, the arms hanging heavily, and the heads lolling to one side. Unlike Fokine, Nijinsky was prepared to risk ugliness in his search for a truly authentic style, and the audiences were almost as deeply shocked by the choreography as by the discordant sounds and jagged rhythms of Stravinsky\u2019s score.\nIn her ballet Les Noces (1923; \u201cThe Wedding\u201d), which took its theme from the marriage ceremonies of Russian peasants, Nijinska created a stark and heavily weighted style of movement. There were few elevations, and the dancers were frequently crouched or bent over, with their heads hanging low to the floor. They were also arranged in large groups, so that the overall impression was less that of individual bodies moving together than of large shapes and blocks of movement.\nAlthough there are similarities between the works of these choreographers and the modern-dance forms that emerged in the 1920s and \u201930s, there is little evidence to suggest any direct influence. The major significance of Fokine, Nijinsky, and Nijinska was in their bringing ballet out of its remote, courtly past by using modern themes and subjects and by introducing modern intellectual and artistic influences into the classical art form.\nThe style of later 20th-century ballet was influenced not only by the Ballets Russes but by modern dance as well. It became common for choreographers to extend the traditional ballet vocabulary with modern-dance techniques, such as curving and tilting the body away from the vertical line, working on or close to the floor, and using turned-in leg positions and flexed feet. Balanchine, influenced by jazz, used syncopated rhythms in his phrasing and incorporated steps from such popular dances as ragtime and rock and roll. His movements were usually wide, almost exaggerated in shape and volume, and frequently characterized by speed and by hard, clear accents.\nDespite these changes ballet retains significant traces of its courtly and classical past. Although there are exceptions, such as those noted above, ballet dancers still tend to dance in the calm, erect, and dignified manner of their aristocratic forebears. Illusion and spectacle remain important; nearly all works are performed on a proscenium stage in a large theatre, where the performers are distanced from the audience, and productions are frequently elaborate and expensive. Ballet companies still, therefore, tend to be large organizations, receiving some kind of patronage or state subsidy.\nModern dance, the other major genre of Western theatre dance, developed in the early 20th century as a series of reactions against what detractors saw as the limited, artificial style of movement of ballet and its frivolous subject matter. Perhaps the greatest pioneer in modern dance was Isadora Duncan. She believed that ballet technique distorted the natural movement of the body, that it \u201cseparated the gymnastic movements of the body completely from the mind,\u201d and that it made dancers move like \u201carticulated puppets\u201d from the base of the spine. Duncan worked with simple movements and natural rhythms, finding her inspiration in the movements of nature\u2014particularly the wind and waves\u2014as well as in the dance forms that she had studied in antique sculpture. Elements that were most characteristic of her dancing included lifted, far-flung arm positions, an ecstatically lifted head, unconstrained leaps, strides, and skips, and, above all, strong, flowing rhythms in which one movement melted into the next. Her costumes, too, were unconstrained; she danced barefoot and uncorseted in simple, flowing tunics, with only the simplest props and lighting effects to frame her movements.\nDuncan believed that dance should be the \u201cdivine expression\u201d of the human spirit, and this concern with the inner motivation of dance characterized all early modern choreographers. They presented characters and situations that broke the romantic, fairy-tale surface of contemporary ballet and explored the primitive instincts, the conflicts and passions of man\u2019s inner self. To this end they sought to develop a style of movement that was more natural and more expressive than ballet. Martha Graham, for example, saw the back, and particularly the pelvis, as the centre of all movement, and many of her most characteristic movements originated from a powerful spiral, arch, or curve in the back. Doris Humphrey saw all human movement as a transition between fall (when the body is off-balance) and recovery (when it returns to a balanced state), and in many of her movements the weight of the body was always just off-centre, falling and being caught.\nInstead of defying gravity, as in ballet, modern dancers emphasized their own weight. Even their jumps and high extensions looked as if they were only momentarily escaping from the downward pull of the Earth, and many of their movements were executed close to, or on, the floor. Graham developed a wide repertoire of falls, for example, and Mary Wigman\u2019s style was characterized by kneeling or crouching, the head often dropped and the arms rarely lifted high into the air.\nAs ballet sought to conceal or defy the force of gravity, so it also strove to conceal the strain of dancing. Modern dance, on the other hand\u2014particularly the work of Graham\u2014emphasized those qualities. In the jagged phrases, angular limbs, clenched fists, and flexed feet, in the forceful movements of the back and the clear lines of tension running through the movement, Graham\u2019s choreography expressed not only the struggle of the dancer against physical limitations but also the power of passion and frustration. Movements were always expressive gestures, never decorative shapes. Often the body and limbs appeared racked and contorted by emotion, for these choreographers, like Nijinsky, were not afraid to appear ugly (as indeed they did to many of their contemporaries).\nThe structure of early modern dance works responded in part to the fragmented narrative and symbolism characteristic of modernist art and literature. Graham often employed flashback techniques and shifting time scales, as in Clytemnestra (1958), or used different dancers to portray different facets of a single character, as in Seraphic Dialogue (1955). Groups of dancers formed sculptural wholes, often to represent social or psychological forces, and there was little of the hierarchical division between principals and corps de ballet that operated in ballet.\nThe Expressionist school dominated modern dance for several decades. From the 1940s onward, however, there was a growing reaction against Expressionism spearheaded by Merce Cunningham. Cunningham wanted to create dance that was about itself\u2014about the kinds of movement of which the human body is capable and about rhythm, phrasing, and structure. Above all, he wanted to create dance that was not subservient to the demands of either narrative or emotional expression. This did not mean that Cunningham wanted to make dance subservient to music or design; on the contrary, though many of his works were collaborations, in the sense that music and design formed a strong part of the total effect, these elements were often conceived\u2014and worked\u2014independently of the actual dance.\nCunningham believed that movement should define its own space and set its own rhythms, rather than be influenced by the set and the music. He also felt that it was more interesting and challenging for the spectator to be confronted with these independently functioning elements and then to choose for himself how to relate them to one another.\nBelieving that all movement was potential dance material, Cunningham developed a style that embraced an extraordinarily wide spectrum, from natural, everyday actions such as sitting down and walking to virtuosic dance movements. Elements of his style even had a close affinity to ballet: jumps tended to be light and airy, the footwork fleet and intricate, and the leg extensions high and controlled. He placed greater emphasis on the vertical and less emphasis on the body\u2019s weight and the force of gravity. Like those of Graham, many of Cunningham\u2019s movements centred on the back and torso, but they tended less toward dramatic contractions and spirals than toward smaller and more sharply defined tilts, curves, and twists. The arms were frequently held in graceful curves and the feet pointed.\nCunningham\u2019s phrases were often composed of elaborate, coordinating movements of the head, feet, body, and limbs in a string of rapidly changing positions. The arrangement of performers on stage was equally complex: at any one moment there might have been several dancers, in what seemed like random groupings, all performing different phrases at the same time. With no main action dominating the stage, the spectator was free to focus on any part of the dance.\nWhile Graham\u2019s works were usually structured around the events of a narrative, Cunningham\u2019s works usually emerged from the working through of one or more choreographic ideas, whose development (i.e., the ordering of movements into phrases or the number of dancers working at any one time) might then have been determined by chance. Deriving its movements from such formal origins did not mean that Cunningham\u2019s works lacked expressive power. One of his pieces, Winterbranch (1964), started out as a study based on moving into a space and falling, but it produced a powerful effect on audiences, who variously interpreted it as a piece about war, concentration camps, or even sea storms. Cunningham believed that the expressive qualities in dance should not be determined by a story line but should simply rise out of movement itself. \u201cThe emotion will appear when the movement is danced,\u201d he claimed, \u201cbecause that is where the life is.\u201d\nDuring the 1960s and \u201970s a new generation of American choreographers, generally referred to as postmodernist choreographers, took some of Cunningham\u2019s ideas even farther. They also believed that ordinary movement could be used in dance, but they rejected the strong element of virtuosity in Cunningham\u2019s technique and the complexities of his phrasing and structure, insisting that such a style interfered with the process of seeing and feeling the movement clearly. Consequently, the postmodernists replaced conventional dance steps with simple movements such as rolling, walking, skipping, and running. Their works concentrated on the basic principles of dance: space, time, and the weight and energy of the dancer\u2019s body.\nPostmodernists discarded spectacle as another distraction from the real business of movement. Costumes were often ordinary practice or street clothes, there was little or no set and lighting, and many performances took place in lofts, galleries, or out-of-doors. Narrative and expression were discarded, and the dance structures were usually very simple, involving either the repetition and accumulation of simple phrases or the working through of simple movement games or tasks. In Tom Johnson\u2019s Running Out of Breath (1976) the dancer simply ran around the stage reciting a text until he ran out of breath.\nMost avant-garde modern-dance companies have been quite small and have occupied a position on the fringe of the dance world, attracting only small and specialist audiences. Although \u201cmainstream\u201d modern dance now attracts large audiences in both Europe and North America, it too was for many decades a minority art form, often playing to only a handful of spectators. Modern-dance companies were then, and still are, relatively small. Partly because they lack funding, they tend to use less elaborate costume and staging, and they perform in small theatres where contact with the audience is close.\nPerhaps the most genuinely popular of all the subgenres within ballet and modern dance are the dance forms associated with the musical, such as tap, jazz, ballroom, and disco. In musicals of both stage and screen, dance is an essential ingredient along with song, acting, and spectacle. Although the dancing is often mechanical and unoriginal, in the work of such dancers and choreographers as Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly it can rise to the status of a genuine art form. Sometimes, as in Jerome Robbins\u2019 choreography for the dances of the rival gangs in West Side Story (1957), it creates a powerful dramatic effect. Other innovative choreographers include Agnes deMille, whose dances in Oklahoma! (1943) were the first ever used to advance the plot, and Bob Fosse, particularly known for his work on the film All That Jazz (1979).\nThe six recognized schools of Indian classical dance developed as a part of religious ritual in which dancers worshiped the gods by telling stories about their lives and exploits. Three main components form the basis of these dances. They are natya, the dramatic element of the dance (i.e., the imitation of character); nritta, pure dance, in which the rhythms and phrases of the music are reflected in the decorative movements of the hands and body and in the stamping of the feet; and nritya, the portrayal of mood through facial expression, hand gesture, and position of the legs and feet.\nThe style of movement in Indian classical dance is very different from that of Western ballet. In ballet the emphasis is frequently on the action of the legs\u2014in jumps, turns, and fast traveling steps, which create ballet\u2019s characteristic qualities of height, speed, and lightness\u2014while the body itself remains relatively still and the arms simply frame the face or balance the body. In Indian dance, however, the legs are usually bent, with the feet flat rather than lifted and pointed. Jumps are usually low (though light), and the dancer rarely covers much ground or performs intricate steps, the complexity of the footwork lying more in elaborate stamping rhythms. (These stamping rhythms enhance the musicality of the dance; many dancers wear bells around their ankles, supplying their own accompaniment as well as counterpoint to the rhythms beaten out by the musicians.) The torso, face, arms, and hands are extremely active. The head is quite mobile, with subtle changes of direction and a characteristic side-to-side movement emphasizing the dancer\u2019s changing facial expressions. The movement of the torso is graceful and fluid, shifting from side to side or turning on the axis of the spine, while the movement of the hands and arms is subtle and elaborate, every gesture having a narrative function. Indian dancers have a vast repertoire of gestures through which they express complex events, ideas, and emotions. There are, for example, 13 gestures of the head, 36 different glances, and 67 mudras, or hand gestures, that can, in various combinations, yield several thousand different meanings.\nWhile these qualities characterize Indian classical dance in general, there are significant variations in each school. Bharata natyam is perhaps the most delicate and elegant of all the form\nGo back to Dance home",

We have to engage.\u201d\nOn the issue of Syria, Mr Blair said he understood the UK\u2019s reluctance not to take military action, but he would have pushed for the imposition of no-fly zones had he still been in office two years ago.\n\u201cI know what the difficult consequences are of intervention, but if you look at Syria you see the consequences of non-intervention, and non-intervention there is something for which we will pay a very heavy price.\u201d\n\u2018Curiously reluctant\u2019\nIn his speech at Bloomberg, Mr Blair called on Western leaders to \u201celevate the issue of religious extremism to the top of the agenda\u201d.\nAnd they must co-operate with other countries \u2013 \u201cin particular, Russia and China\u201d \u2013 regardless of \u201cother differences\u201d.\nHe argued the threat posed by a radical view which \u201cdistorts and warps Islam\u2019s true message\u201d was \u201cspreading across the world\u201d.\n\u201cIt is destabilising communities and even nations. It is undermining the possibility of peaceful co-existence in an era of globalisation.\n\u201cAnd in the face of this threat we seem curiously reluctant to acknowledge it and powerless to counter it effectively.\u201d\nHe called on leaders to consider the \u201cabsurdity\u201d of spending billions of dollars on security against an ideology which is being \u201cadvocated\u201d in the schools and institutions of \u201ccountries with whom we have intimate security and defence relationships\u201d.\n\u201cSome of those countries of course wish to escape from the grip of this ideology, but often it is hard for them to do so within their own political constraints,\u201d he added.\n\u201cThis struggle between what we may call the open-minded and the closed-minded is at the heart of whether the 21st Century turns in the direction of peaceful co-existence or conflict between people of different cultures.\u201d\nIslamists, jihadists, radical Islam\nEx Iranian Muslim leader speaking in Cape Town\nTony Blair: \u2018West should focus on radical Islam\u2019 - News Watch says:\n[\u2026] Tony Blair: \u2018West should focus on radical Islam\u2019 [\u2026]\nTony Blair is quite right, but I wonder why he didn\u2019t act upon similar views when was in power. I worked in a Community Centre run by the YMCA when I was working in the UK 2008-10. The YMCA definitely didn\u2019t appear to be a Christian organisation as no Christian signs or presentations were allowed to be shown. The Management weren\u2019t Christian. When I queried this I was informed that there were contractual constraints preventing this. In other words kowtowing to other religions. As Selwyn Hughes once put it,\u2019the YMCA should change their name to the YMSocialA.\u2019 Yes, we must meet the inroads of Radical Islam head on the the full armour of our God.

        "raw_content": "Bombers Tested Headed Into Today\u2019s First South Quad\nSt. Xavier is hoping that its early-season schedule will be beneficial as it prepares for a week of bowling with serious implications for all four teams competing in the Greater Catholic League South Division. It gets underway later today with the first GCL South Quad of the season at 4 p.m. at Crossgate Lanes in Blue Ash, followed by St. Xavier then traveling to face Elder at Western Bowl at 7 Thursday evening. The Panthers are 3-0 this season, with a pair of victories last week against Moeller, and a strong second-place finish in the season-opening Centerville Elks Invitational on November 24. Elder finished No. 11 in the prestigious Holiday Classic last weekend at Western Bowl.\nThe Bombers also competed in the 39-team Holiday Classic, hosted by Elder and Seton high schools, and was in 14th place after two individual games and four Baker Format games \u2013 earning a spot among the top 16 finishers competing for the tournament championship, with the remaining 23 schools squaring off in the consolation bracket. Elder and La Salle also advanced to the championship round, and ironically faced each other in the first match \u2013 with Elder winning before falling to Centerville. Moeller bowled Harrison in the consolation bracket and lost, 2-1.\nSt. Xavier opened the Holiday Classic with a team score of 992, led by a pair of seniors \u2013 Zach Saupe with a 226 (394 series) and a 208 from Jake Hoffman (396 series). In game two, the Bombers rolled a 991 to move into ninth place in the team standings \u2013 led by seniors Carson Kiley (234), Jeremy Roenker (201) and Ben Behimer (200). St. Xavier dropped back to 14th place after the Baker Format, making the cut and earning a match with Centerville in match play (best two out of three). Centerville won the first two games and, after defeating Elder, finished runner-up to St. Mary\u2019s.\nThe Bombers dropped their first two matches of the season, falling to Vandalia Butler in the opener on November 27 and then La Salle in the GCL South debut for both teams December 3. After today\u2019s quad hosted by Moeller, the three remaining GCL South Quads are scheduled for Friday, January 11 at 6 p.m. at Brentwood Bowl (hosted by St. Xavier); Friday, January 18 at 6 p.m. at Colerain Bowl (La Salle); and Friday, February 1 at 7 p.m. at Western Bowl (Elder).",

        "raw_content": "It\u2019s that time of year when you\u2019re probably planning your company\u2019s holiday/employee party. Having a holiday party is fun, especially when alcohol is being consumed. Who doesn\u2019t love discussing those embarrassing holiday party moments on Monday morning right?\nIf you own a business and are planning a party for your employees or customers, then you need to continue reading this article to learn how to hold a tax deductible office party for your employees.\nAs a reminder, the tax code contains the following two categories for your entertainment tax deductions: (1) 50 percent deductible entertainment (such as taking your staff out to lunch) and (2) 100 percent deductible entertainment (such as a holiday party).\nIf your business chart of accounts does not contain these two different accounts for entertainment, then it should because this article will explain how you can take a 100% deduction for your holiday or employee party.\nInviting Customers & Independent Contractors\nA tax deductible holiday party for your employees generally must be just a party for your employees. If only employees and their family are present along with the business owners, then it\u2019s very likely a fully tax deductible event.\nIt cannot, however, be a party for just you and your family nor can it be a party for just customers either. A party for the employees is 100% deductible but if non-employees are present, then it may still be deductible, but not at 100%. For example, say 25 employees and their spouses and 50 customers are at the party, then half of the cost would be 100% deductible and the other half would be deductible at 50%.\nWhile you don\u2019t need to do anything special to claim a deduction for your employees and their spouses, for those looking to claim a deduction for non-employees invited to the party, Gedeon Law & CPA advises clients to incorporate a simple practice in their party invitation. Specifically, we recommend including your business pursuit in the invitation to non-employees by including a phrase like \u201cJoin Gedeon Law & CPA for its annual holiday party and help us celebrate 6 years in business.\u201d\nIt\u2019s recommended to have the party at the office or a venue other than your home.\nHow to Document the Party\nYou do not need a business reason to deduct the cost of a holiday party that is primarily to benefit your employees.\nIt\u2019s recommended that you save your receipts for all the party expenses. Also, keep a list of those in attendance; with names, address etc. Furthermore, note the relationship of the attendee to your business with this record (i.e. customer, contractor, employee, family). We recommend having a guest book at the party. Don\u2019t forget to also take pictures at the party.\nAnd finally, be sure to let your tax preparer know that the cost for the employee party is a 100% expense apart from your other entertainment costs which are not. At Gedeon Law & CPA, we recommend tracking these expenses using the 100% deductible entertainment category on your chart of accounts.\nAt Gedeon Law & CPA, we are always combing through the tax code to identify opportunities that help our business clients maximize their tax deductions.",

She thought they were kidding [that] this was not really happening. We did sign up, and about six/seven months later, we were given our permission slips.

We left the camp. And I remember the first time I ever rode in a car. There was a big black car and about four or five families, and we left the camp with whatever suitcases we had.

        "raw_content": "The instant New York Times bestseller and award-winning sensation, Helen Macdonald's story of adopting and raising one of nature's most vicious predators has soared into the hearts of millions of readers worldwide. Fierce and feral, her goshawk Mabel's temperament mirrors Helen's own state of grief after her father's death, and together raptor and human \"discover the pain and beauty of being alive\" (People). H Is for Hawk is a genre-defying debut from one of our most unique and transcendent voices.\nThe Ladies of Managua\nby Eleni N Gage\nWhen Maria Vazquez returns to Nicaragua for her beloved grandfather's funeral, she brings with her a mysterious package from her grandmother's past-and a secret of her own. And she also carries the burden of her tense relationship with her mother Ninexin, once a storied revolutionary, now a tireless government employee. Between Maria and Ninexin lies a chasm created by the death of Maria's father, who was killed during the revolution when Maria was an infant, leaving her to be raised by her grandmother Isabela as Ninexin worked to build the new Nicaragua. As Ninexin tries to reach her daughter, and Maria wrestles with her expectations for her romance with an older man, Isabela, the mourning widow, is lost in memories of attending boarding school in 1950's New Orleans, where she loved and lost almost sixty years ago. When the three women come together to bid farewell to the man who anchored their family, they are forced to confront their complicated, passionate relationships with each other and with their country-and to reveal the secrets that each of them have worked to conceal.\nLushly evocative of Nicaragua, its tumultuous history, and vibrant present, Eleni N. Gage's The Ladies of Managua brings you into the lives of three strong and magnetic women, as they uncover the ramifications of the choices they made in their pasts and begin to understand the ways in which love can shape their futures.\nIn this 1996 Minnesota Book Award winner, Kent Nerburn draws the reader deep into the world of an Indian elder known only as Dan. It\u2019s a world of Indian towns, white roadside cafes, and abandoned roads that swirl with the memories of the Ghost Dance and Sitting Bull. Readers meet vivid characters like Jumbo, a 400-pound mechanic, and Annie, an 80-year-old Lakota woman living in a log cabin. Threading through the book is the story of two men struggling to find a common voice. Neither Wolf nor Dog takes readers to the heart of the Native American experience. As the story unfolds, Dan speaks eloquently on the difference between land and property, the power of silence, and the selling of sacred ceremonies. This edition features a new introduction by the author.\nHidden Half of Nature\nPrepare to set aside what you think you know about yourself and microbes. Good health?for people and for plants?depends on Earth\u2019s smallest creatures. The Hidden Half of Nature tells the story of our tangled relationship with microbes and their potential to revolutionize agriculture and medicine, from garden to gut.\nWhen David R. Montgomery and Anne Bikl\u00e9 decide to restore life into their barren yard by creating a garden, dead dirt threatens their dream. As a cure, they feed their soil a steady diet of organic matter. The results impress them. In short order, the much-maligned microbes transform their bleak yard into a flourishing Eden. Beneath their feet, beneficial microbes and plant roots continuously exchange a vast array of essential compounds. The authors soon learn that this miniaturized commerce is central to botanical life\u2019s master strategy for defense and health.\nThey are abruptly plunged further into investigating microbes when Bikl\u00e9 is diagnosed with cancer. Here, they discover an unsettling truth. An armada of bacteria (our microbiome) sails the seas of our gut, enabling our immune system to sort microbial friends from foes. But when our gut microbiome goes awry, our health can go with it. The authors also discover startling insights into the similarities between plant roots and the human gut. We are not what we eat. We are all?for better or worse?the product of what our microbes eat.\nThis leads to a radical reconceptualization of our relationship to the natural world: by cultivating beneficial microbes, we can rebuild soil fertility and help turn back the modern plague of chronic diseases. The Hidden Half of Nature reveals how to transform agriculture and medicine?by merging the mind of an ecologist with the care of a gardener and the skill of a doctor.\nby Jess Andrews\nFrom Jesse Andrews, author of the New York Times bestselling Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and screenwriter of the Sundance award\u2013winning motion picture of the same name, comes a groundbreaking young adult novel about music, love, friendship, and freedom as three young musicians follow a quest to escape the law long enough to play the amazing show they hope (but also doubt) they have in them.\nInspired by the years he spent playing bass in a band himself, The Haters is Jesse Andrews\u2019s road trip adventure about a trio of jazz-camp escapees who, against every realistic expectation, become a band.\nFor Wes and his best friend, Corey, jazz camp turns out to be lame. It\u2019s pretty much all dudes talking in Jazz Voice. But then they jam with Ash, a charismatic girl with an unusual sound, and the three just click. It\u2019s three and a half hours of pure musical magic, and Ash makes a decision: They need to hit the road. Because the road, not summer camp, is where bands get good. Before Wes and Corey know it, they\u2019re in Ash\u2019s SUV heading south, and The Haters Summer of Hate Tour has begun.\nIn his second novel, Andrews again brings his brilliant and distinctive voice to YA, in the perfect book for music lovers, fans of The Commitments (author Rody Doyle raves \"The Haters is terrific. It is shocking and funny, unsettling and charming.\" ), and High Fidelity, or anyone who has ever loved\u2014and hated\u2014a song or a band. This witty, funny coming-of-age novel is contemporary fiction at its best.\n\"Some people might think that being 'furiously happy' is just an excuse to be stupid and irresponsible and invite a herd of kangaroos over to your house without telling your husband first because you suspect he would say no since he's never particularly liked kangaroos. And that would be ridiculous because no one would invite a herd of kangaroos into their house. Two is the limit. I speak from personal experience. My husband says that none is the new limit. I say he should have been clearer about that before I rented all those kangaroos.\n\"Most of my favorite people are dangerously fucked-up but you'd never guess because we've learned to bare it so honestly that it becomes the new normal. Like John Hughes wrote in The Breakfast Club, 'We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it.' Except go back and cross out the word 'hiding.'\"\nFuriously Happy is about \"taking those moments when things are fine and making them amazing, because those moments are what make us who we are, and they're the same moments we take into battle with us when our brains declare war on our very existence. It's the difference between \"surviving life\" and \"living life\". It's the difference between \"taking a shower\" and \"teaching your monkey butler how to shampoo your hair.\" It's the difference between being \"sane\" and being \"furiously happy.\"\nLawson is beloved around the world for her inimitable humor and honesty, and in Furiously Happy, she is at her snort-inducing funniest. This is a book about embracing everything that makes us who we are - the beautiful and the flawed - and then using it to find joy in fantastic and outrageous ways. Because as Jenny's mom says, \"Maybe 'crazy' isn't so bad after all.\" Sometimes crazy is just right.",

In Thailand it was rice whisky - high alcohol content, sweet, reasonably smooth, and fairly unremarkable. Here it's lao-lao. It's made from rice or sticky rice (I'm not sure which), has the clarity of good tap water (which suggests it was aged, oh, a good two hours) and, honestly, it's vile. Imagine the worst tequila you've ever had, add a hint of mustiness, and you've got what I tasted. I didn't even bother to finish the shot.\nI went on a tour of the Pak Ou caves north of Luang Prabang recently, and included in that ride up the Mekong River was a visit to a village where the principle product was lao-lao.\nSamples of both the hard stuff and the local rice wine are free, and the lao-lao isn't quite as bad as what I had tasted previously.

        "title": "Reading the Khashoggi Affair",
        "raw_content": "Reading the Khashoggi Affair\nThe disappearance of the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi since his visit to the Saudi Arabian consulate in Istanbul, on 2 October, and the suspicions of his murder by the Saudi authorities represent one of the most important political crises in the contemporary history of the monarchy in Riyadh. Beyond the morbidity of the alleged sequence \u2013 namely that Khashoggi was killed inside the consulate from where his body, cut in pieces, was disposed of by a team of Saudi agents who had flown in and out of Istanbul on a special flight \u2013 and besides the international diplomatic implications of the ongoing investigation as well as the preposterous scenario of an unlikely accidental death due to a fistfight scenario presented by the Saudi officials 18 days after the event (an about-face in contradiction with their original statement that Khashoggi had left the consulate), three larger questions arise. These concern the illusion of Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud\u2019s reforms, the unceasingly renewed cecity of Western political leaders, as regards Middle Eastern autocrats, and the continuous and problematic degradation of international norms.\nThe first question is the least surprising, with the Mohammad Bin Salman phenomenon likely to come to pass as a flash in the pan. Uncritically embraced with indecent swiftness by the Western media as \u201cMBS\u201d, the 33-year-old son of King Salman Bin Abdelaziz had quickly risen to power since 2014. In June 2017, he unceremoniously pushed aside his cousin, Mohamed Bin Nayef, from the royal succession line \u2013 thereby putting an unprecedented dent in the traditionally consensual ways of the House of Saud since the 1930s. The Khashoggi affair might well bring an end to the MBS era \u2013 and that would be an extraordinary turn of events in light of the way Bin Salman\u2019s era had been branded. Already, regardless of the eventual outcome, his international public relations project has come to a dramatic halt.\n\"Militarised throughout the 2000s, the terms of exchange between nations have become increasingly criminalised during the 2010s. The Khashoggi affair is a tragic illustration that this is now done offhandedly and almost openly.\"\nIn point of fact, and despite a gigantic marketing campaign, the Saudi crown prince had, during his young political career, gone from one failure to another. The decision he had taken, in March 2015 as Minister of Defence, to launch a major war in Yemen has engulfed Saudi Arabia in what can already be assessed as its own \u201cVietnam\u201d; a conflict which has spawned one of the largest contemporary humanitarian crises and a military campaign littered with war crimes. Upon taking over as prime minister, Bin Salman subsequently plunged the Gulf in its deepest crisis when, overnight in June 2017, he led, an embargo on Qatar, accusing his neighbour and former ally of promoting terrorism. That crisis, which nearly turned military, importantly divided the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), long cohesive since its creation. Crown prince Bin Salman then ordered the Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri to Riyadh the following November, whom he forced to record a video message announcing his resignation and kept under house arrest before releasing him two weeks later. All these decisions were taken impulsively; undermined Saudi Arabia\u2019s image of a stable, if authoritarian, country and, most problematically for Bin Salman\u2019s project, constituted repeated political failures.\nSecondarily, the Khashoggi episode reveals the hypocrisy, which in the West, presided over the diplomatic and journalistic love affair with \u2018MBS\u2019, widely presented in the style of a young-modernising-reformist-king-at-last-transforming-the-kingdom. Echoing the announcement of reforms supposedly introduced to liberalise the country and diversify its economy, self-interested international partners hurriedly turned a blind eye on the limited aspect of these projects and of Bin Salman\u2019s so-called Vision 2030 itself (heavily geared towards entertainment with plans for large-scale movie theatres, amusement parks, music concert halls). More importantly, these partners conveniently ignored the continued, and indeed increased, political repression that accompanied these heralded economic changes.\nBy November 2017, the then de facto strong man of the country, Bin Salman, jailed some forty political and economic figures of the kingdom under corruption accusations. That purge was read by many as a belated attempt to clean house and rid the country of business practices often conducted in opacity. It was immediately followed by the arrest of some twenty women\u2019s rights militants, when, six weeks earlier, it had been announced that the ban on women driving cars would be lifted. In the same period, repression of human rights activists and scholars persisted without tainting the lily-white image of a reformist crown prince. Last spring, Americans could find in their newsstands a Vanity Fair-like glossy magazine entitled The New Kingdom with \u201cMBS\u201d on its cover next to the headlines: \u201cOur Closest Middle East Ally Destroying Terrorism\u201d and \u201cImproving Lives of His People and Hopes for Peace\u201d. Today, President Donald Trump\u2019s grandstanding and threats of \u201csevere punishment\u201d thus ring hollow, particularly in light of the cozy relationship between White House adviser and Trump son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and the Saudi crown prince. Most problematically, as had been the case with Egyptian President Abdelfattah al Sisi and his rebooting of the Hosni Mubarak regime thought gone after the Arab Spring, Middle Eastern autocrats emerge once again as the privileged partners in many Western governments.\nThe extraordinary feeling of impunity which the Saudi authorities would have demonstrated \u2013 if their responsibility in the assassination of Jamal Khashoggi were to be ascertained \u2013 confirms, finally, the continuing fall of the norms of civilised international affairs. Militarised throughout the 2000s, the terms of exchange between nations have become during this decade criminalised, offhandedly and almost openly. For if, in truth, Mohammad Bin Salman could have personally ordered the killing of a journalist (someone who was a member of the Saudi elite and whose opposition to the regime was relatively mild), it is because, in this global Zeitgeist, he had witnessed the US president call journalists the \u201cenemy\u201d and, during his campaign, cheer acts of violence, or yet again seen Russian operatives allegedly conducting, in the British Wiltshire suburbs, an operation to poison a former Russian agent and his daughter.\nA form of ethical corruption partaking of the problem now denounced, such loss of exemplarity on the part of governments is still at play in the current crisis, and it is from civil society, the corporate world and the media that the most significant reactions came, not from states or political leaders. Viacom, Virgin, CNN, CNBC and Uber cancelled their participation to the \u201cDavos in the Desert\u201d business meeting in Riyadh before government representatives and IMF officials did. Ultimately, the tepidity and guarded nature of these reactions speaks of the weakening of international norms, a matter the Khashoggi affair is a tragic illustration of.\nProfessor of International History",

        "raw_content": "Green Earth Energy of Brandon, the solar subsidiary of The McKernon Group, has teamed up with SunEdison, a solar photovoltaic panel manufacturer, to help Vermonters take advantage of solar energy installations. The partnership will allow participants a one-stop solution to finance, purchase and install solar electric systems at their home.\nSunEdison has introduced their Combo Loan Program, making buying a residential solar system available to more people. The initial portion is a zero interest loan with no payments for one year. This will allow the customer to receive all of their tax credits and rebates before having to pay off any of the loan. The second portion of the loan is 12 years at 2.99%. This is unsecured with a fixed rate for the life of the loan.\nThere are no out of pocket costs to purchase this solar system. The savings on the electric bill will typically cover the monthly payment on the 12-year loan. Additionally this will also eliminate rate increases from the electric company insuring stability in electric costs for the next 25 years. Therefore the homeowner will be investing in their own solar power generating system that should increase the value of their home for resale purposes.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Imperfect Congruence \u00bb Part 1: Kepler and the regular polygon tilings \u00bb Some basic terms\nIn the mathematical context, a \"tiling\" is a set of shapes that are repeated indefinitely until they cover the entire plane (or other surfaces) and overlap only at single points (vertices) or 1 dimensional curves (edges). An element of the set of shapes used to construct the tiling is called a prototile. As simple examples, consider a rectangular grid where the prototile is a square or an infinite honeycomb where the prototile is a hexagon.\nAn edge-to-edge tiling is a tiling where edges overlap only with other edges and vertices only with other vertices.\nA polygon is a shape bounded by straight edges. In a regular polygon, the edges all have the same length. The edges intersect at corner points (vertices) and the angle between the two edges at each vertex is the same.\nKepler gives a regular polygon definition as Book I, Section I of Harmonices Mundi:\nA plane figure is said to be regular if it has all its sides and all its outward-facing angles equal to one another.\nIn Book I, Section II, Kepler points out that if edge self-intersection is allowed, regular polygons also include star polygons. I'll be excluding star polygons in the discussion on this site for now (but they are something I may examine in the future).\nGiven a fixed edge length and orientation, a regular polygon can be determined uniquely by the number of its sides (n >= 3). The simplest regular polygon is the equilateral triangle. It is easy to show that the edge angle (sometimes called the \"interior angle\") of an n-sided regular polygon is (n-2)\u03c0/n radians. (I will use radians on this site but if you prefer degrees, replace \u03c0 everywhere by 180\u00b0).\nThe \"small\" polygons with up to 12 sides have common names:\nThe small regular polygons\n3 triangle (1/3)\u03c0\n4 square (2/4)\u03c0\n5 pentagon (3/5)\u03c0\n6 hexagon (4/6)\u03c0\n7 heptagon (5/7)\u03c0\n8 octagon (6/8)\u03c0\n9 nonagon (7/9)\u03c0\n10 decagon (8/10)\u03c0\n11 hendecagon (9/11)\u03c0\n12 dodecagon (10/12)\u03c0\nExcept for the square, these terms are also used for irregular polygons with n sides. Unless otherwise stated, I will use these terms on this site to refer to regular polygons only. If there is any ambiguity I will prefix \"regular\" to the name. The regular triangle is usually called an \"equilateral triangle\" although Kepler and some recent authors use the shorter \"trigon\" term instead.\nAn infinite number of mathematically distinct edge-to-edge tilings of the plane using regular polygons as prototiles is possible. Nevertheless it has been noticed for many centuries that these tilings share a number of properties.\nFor example, none of them contain a pentagon.\n\u2039 Part 1: Kepler and the regular polygon tilings up Vertex figures \u203a",

        "title": "Handmade Harbour: So That Was 2012...",
        "raw_content": "So That Was 2012...\nAs it comes to the end of a year, most of us look back. What was good about it, not so good - and what did we achieve? And please do read on, because I want to hear from you too!\nSo, my own 2012 was probably better than I thought:\nThis Blog...\nI started this blog in March this year. It's had over 93,000 visits already, which has completely blown me away! I'm amazed that some of my posts have been shared on blogs and forums around the world, sometimes even in languages I can't understand. The power of the internet (and blogging in particular) never fails to amaze me.\nI finally dug out my long-neglected sewing machine earlier this year, which was promptly spotted by a visiting child! Reacting to her enthusiasm, I started teaching my now 10-year-old granddaughter to sew - she was really excited about the idea of using a sewing machine and it's sparked a brand new interest for her, which is lovely. We've made lots of cushions together, among other things, and she now has grand plans for bag making. 2013 may well be the year of the bag!\nWriting for Magazines...\nBoth Sewing World and Craftseller asked me to design/write for them on a regular basis after I submitted some ideas to them! I've even had projects featured on the front cover of both, which is really exciting!\nI must admit, this particular issue was the most exciting, when my little upcycled travel sewing kit took centre stage! It was pretty unbelievable, especially as the sewing kit wasn't actually designed with a magazine in mind to begin with. It was just one of those projects that started with a bit of upcycling (in this case, an old hardback diary).\nSewing Patterns...\nI made a (very slow) start in the world of selling downloadable sewing patterns. Some of the projects which have been in magazines this year will be available to download in 2013 (if all goes to plan, that is). Each magazine has its own rules as to how long must elapse before you can sell the pattern, online or otherwise.\nThis sewing machine applique cushion\nis one of the few patterns already in my Craftsy shop.\nBlog Sponsorship...\nI have been privileged to receive some fabulous free stuff (much of it in the form of yummy fabrics!) in return for blog mentions and as giveaways for my readers. I think I've come to rather love this aspect of blogging, and it fits in very well with this blog. Yes, it's sponsorship, but I am OK with that - it allows me to do more. It probably goes without saying (but I'll say it anyway!) that I wouldn't accept sponsorship or freebies from anyone if I didn't think it was relevant to what I'm doing and and from anyone who wasn't a good value, good quality supplier.\nIt's a win-win situation, because the supplier gets links and visits from each mention and I get gorgeous fabrics like this:\nfabric from Abakhan\nWriting Books...\nI made serious inroads into writing books. Yep, that's plural, I couldn't just start one book and finish it before starting another, could I?! I have plans to do a bit of e-book publishing, but I kind of fell at the last hurdle...\nI think two things slowed me down, pretty much to the point of stopping altogether:\n1. an unrealistic aim for perfection (I know as well as anyone that perfection is never gonna happen. Why does it bother me so much?) and...\n2. a downright fear of the whole idea of self-publishing: What if nobody buys it? Worse, what if someone buys it and slates it? Could I honestly live with a one-star review on Amazon? Aargh!! How does anyone ever publish a book?! If ever there was a case to illustrate the self-help book feel the fear and do it anyway, this is it for me. I really must do some finishing off and actual publishing in 2013... (yikes. I've said it publicly now)\nNah, that slim little thing posing for the camera with a laptop isn't me.\nI think maybe I achieved more than I set out to do and I'm glad I wrote this post - beforehand, it didn't actually feel like I had achieved much at all (possibly because in my head I was focusing on what I hadn't achieved ... yet. If that's what you're doing, do remember that little word \"yet\" - it changes the whole focus of lack of achievement into something altogether more hopeful).\nMore importantly than what I've achieved in 2012 though is this: I think I have some strong building blocks which I hope will make good foundations to start building my 2013. I'll be back soon with some of my plans and hopes for the brand new year.\nWhat about you? How was 2012 for you? I know I said we'd have a break from Handmade Monday, but perhaps if you've done an end of the year post, you could link up here as a one-off? Or leave a comment?\nCreazioni di Tiziana said...\nHappy new year, by Tiziana\nWow you have had a very productive year Wendy, well done!\nFunnily enough mine is kind of similar to yours, making good headways in building the website traffic & content, writing for magazines (peaking with 3 seperate features in 1 magazine in Nov) and now writing a book. My plan for 2013 is to try and get my book published, do more sewing and keep building my site.\nBest of luck with your plans x\nA great year, Wendy, and I hope 2013 is even better for you. It has been an interesting year, learned lots, made new friends along the way, enjoyed my business and really looking forward to an interesting 2013. Happy New Year.\nCongratulations on an amazing year. Thank you so much - I have picked up so many tips from you. I also wish to thank you for hosting Handmade Monday - I have really missed it as it has become such a major part of my week :) Hope you have a super 2013 :)\nHow an earth do you find time to do so much. It sounds like you've had a wonderful year and I'm not surprised your writing a book. Your a wealth of useful information. Your perfection comment made me smile. It's the one thing that stops me from doing things which it crazy because then I don't get anything done. All the best for the New Year and thanks for hosting Handmade Monday.\nI'm so pleased you did start this blog - it's given me such a lift being part of Handmade Monday! My new year's resolution has got to be getting my stuff prepared earlier on a Monday Morning and then allowing enough time to browse and reply to everyone else.. Thank you! Here's to a great 2013!! Sue\nI find it amazing you have done so much in a year - well less than a year. I started blogging about the same time, and love linking to Handmade Monday, as it is so mutually supportive.\nI am trying to make a list of targets for 2013, as although I have done a lot of the things I planned for this year I am not very focused. I tend to get side-tracked and dabble in things that are not at all commercial.\nWhat an amazing year!!! Well done Wendy :) and thank you, it is very inspiring to read about all your achievements!\nWishing you a wonderful, creative and joyful 2013 xxx\nI think I'm in a minority. I rarely look back on the year just ending but instead I get excited about the year just starting. It's like being back at school and getting a new exercise book. All those crisp, new pages to fill...............\nsounds like a great year with lots of exciting prospects in 2013. As for me I discovered something amazing in 2012...people really do like my stuff enough to want to buy it. Happy New Year.\nThe Seat Bottomer said...\nYou deserve all of the success Wendy, long may it continue!! Have a brilliant 2013. Kim x\nCongratulations on all your achievements, Wendy - you're an inspiration! Happy New Year x",

        "raw_content": "Home/Health Tips/Antihistamines\nHEALTHFORFREE.INFO\nAntihistamines are medicines that help stop allergy symptoms. These symptoms include:\nskin rashes such as hives.\nThey are normally taken by mouth. They come in tablets, capsules, chewable tablets, and liquids. Many people buy them over the counter (OTC) at a store. You can also get them through a prescription from your doctor.\nAntihistamines are generally considered safe for most people. This includes adults, children over the age of 2, and older people. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor if antihistamines are safe for you. Ask your doctor if you can take antihistamines if you have a chronic disease or condition. This includes heart disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure.\nYou can take antihistamines different ways, depending on your symptoms. Some people take them only when they have symptoms. Others experience symptoms every day, so they take the antihistamine every day. Sometimes people take them before they are going to be exposed to something they are allergic to. This could include an animal (such as cats or dogs) or certain kinds of plants or flowers.\nThere are many different brands of antihistamines that you can buy over the counter. Some work in different ways. For example, some are designed to work for 4 to 6 hours. Others last for 12 to 24 hours. Make sure you read the label carefully. Follow the directions for how often to take the antihistamine.\nAsk your doctor which OTC antihistamine is best for you based on your symptoms.\nWhy did my doctor give me a prescription when I could buy an over-the-counter antihistamine?\nCompared to OTC medicines, prescription antihistamines are less likely to have side effects. These can include drowsiness, dry mouth, or blurry vision. They may be better for some people, including:\nChildren during school hours.\nPeople who work with machinery or drive cars.\nLike most medicines, antihistamines can cause side effects. The most common include:\nfeeling nervous, irritable, or excited.\nSome types of antihistamines can cause sleepiness. Do not drink alcohol when taking antihistamines.\nCan I take my prescription antihistamine with other medicines?\nYou shouldn\u2019t take prescription antihistamines if you also are taking certain other prescription medicines. These include erythromycin (an antibiotic) or certain medicines used to treat fungal infections. These include itraconazole or ketoconazole. When your doctor gives you a prescription, always ask if it\u2019s safe to use with the other medicines you\u2019re taking. Your pharmacist can also tell you what is safe to take. If you aren\u2019t sure, ask the pharmacist or your doctor before taking another medicine.\nCan I share my prescription antihistamines with friends who have allergies?\nNo. You should never share a prescription medicine with another person. Your doctor has examined you and has picked a medicine that is right only for your problem. Some antihistamines can cause serious side effects if they are given to people who are taking another medicine, or who should not take antihistamines for another reason.\nDo I need an antihistamine?\nCan I take one over the counter, or do I need a prescription?\nWhich over-the-counter type of antihistamine is the best for my symptoms?\nWhat are the side effects of this type or brand?\nIs there anything I should avoid doing while I\u2019m taking an antihistamine?\nHow long should I take it?",

And he said to Abimelech, Increase thine army, and come out.\n[30] And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled.\n[31] And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brethren be come to Shechem; and, behold, they fortify the city against thee.\n[32] Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the field\n[33] And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city and, behold, when he and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion.\n[34] And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies.\n[35] And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city and Abimelech rose up, and the people that were with him, from lying in wait.\n[36] And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there come people down from the top of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou seest the shadow of the mountains as if they were men.\n[37] And Gaal spake again and said, See there come people down by the middle of the land, and another company come along by the plain of Meonenim.\n[38] Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out, I pray now, and fight with them.\n[39] And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.\n[40] And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate.\n[41] And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah and Zebul thrust out Gaal and his brethren, that they should not dwell in Shechem.\n[42] And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech.\n[43] And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and looked, and, behold, the people were come forth out of the city; and he rose up against them, and smote them.\n[44] And Abimelech, and the company that was with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city and the two other companies ran upon all the people that were in the fields, and slew them.\n[45] And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that was therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.\n[46] And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard that, they entered into an hold of the house of the god Berith.\n[47] And it was told Abimelech, that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.\n[48] And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and laid it on his shoulder, and said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done.\n[49] And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the hold, and set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.\n[50] Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it.\n[51] But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and women, and all they of the city, and shut it to them, and gat them up to the top of the tower.\n[52] And Abimelech came unto the tower, and fought against it, and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire.\n[53] And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech's head, and all to brake his skull.\n[54] Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A woman slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.\n[55] And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man unto his place.\n[56] Thus God rendered the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did unto his father, in slaying his seventy brethren\n[57] And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.",

The UK-based company works in the point of sale sector. The company acts as an alternative to consumers that allows them to purchase the goods they need while retailers are paid immediately.\nThe funding round was led by DN Capital and Mangrove Capital.\nDivido also previously received \u00a3200,000 from the UK in the form of a grant. Consumers will use the company as a form of payment in which their purchases will be financed much like a loan. The company uses a marketplace which will allow for lenders to compete and offer financing to Divido consumers.\nThe company also offers a 0% financing option.\nFunds raised during the Divido\u2019s recent round of funding will be used for product development and marketing. The marketplace allows for more options for consumers, cheaper rates and a better overall experience. Many retailers will offer funding through Visa or MasterCard, but the marketplace allows for small and large retailers to offer lending through a variety of sources.\nThe marketplace allows for up to \u00a325,000 in funding for each individual transaction.\nThree funding options are offered by Divido: 0% finance, deferred payment and credit. The company is a paperless solution that receives a kickback from lenders for each sale that is made through the company\u2019s platform. A setup fee and monthly fees will also be charged to merchants that use the company\u2019s platform.\nDivido has over 100 retailers that use the company\u2019s marketplace. Retailers benefit from receiving the money they need to continue their operations immediately from lenders. Smaller businesses that have a tight cash flow and can\u2019t offer financing will be able to offer funding to consumers.\nChrister Holloman, co-founder and CEO of Divido, was an integral force that helped launch Glassdoor.com in Europe.\nPrevious articleSingapore\u2019s Garena Raises Undisclosed Amount from Three New Investors\nNext articleWoW Legion Companion App Released on iOS and Android",

        "raw_content": "Explore the Wall Street mogul\u2019s Big Island art enclave\nTHE ROCKEFELLER NAME has long been associated with Wall Street and finance \u2013 but eco-tourism?\nLaurance S. Rockefeller (1910-2004) was a director of Colonial Williamsburg and had been credited with opening environmentally focused hotels around the world since the early 1950s. So after Hawaii became the 50th state in 1959, Gov. William Quinn invited Rockefeller for a visit, hoping he would be interested in creating a hotel to expand Hawaii\u2019s nascent tourist industry beyond Oahu.\nSure enough, upon arrival, the financier asked to go for a swim, and from the water, looking toward the summit of Mauna Kea, Rockefeller was inspired to create the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel reflecting the natural beauty and spirit of the surroundings. Through Rockefeller, the Kohala Coast gained not only a resort, but a world-class collection of Asian and Pacific art.\nRockefeller already possessed a deep interest in Buddhism and Asian culture, gained through his mother, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, that mingled with his love of the natural world. He was instrumental in establishing and enlarging several national parks from Maine to Hawaii, and served as an adviser to presidents, from Dwight D. Eisenhower to George W. Bush.\nIn the foreword to the book, The Art of Mauna Kea, written by Don Aanavi in 1987, Rockefeller explained his ambition for the Mauna Kea Hotel in his own words, saying, \u201cWorking closely with nature was much in my mind when planning the Mauna Kea.\n\u201cI have always felt that there is much the ancient East can teach the West and saw the Mauna Kea as providing us with a unique opportunity to bring an awareness of the spirit and wisdom of the East to our resort. We decided to incorporate Asian (influences) and Pacific art into the design of the Mauna Kea in such a way that the art can become, just as the elements of nature would become, a constant influence.\u201d\nAncient and contemporary works of art were placed throughout the hotel, under roof and outdoors to maximize visitor exposure.\n\u201cIn this way,\u201d Rockefeller said, \u201cour visitors could encounter the works often and easily, get to know and appreciate them, and even, in some cases, study them.\u201d\nRockefeller hoped the collection would promote cultural understanding among the peoples of the West, Asia and Oceania.\nAll this took place more than a quarter century ago. Today, the Mauna Kea holdings comprise one of the most extensive collections of Asian and Oceanic art assembled by a single individual since the last half of the 20th century.\nThe works range in form and function from religious to secular, primitive to urbane. \u201cFar more than decorations,\u201d Rockefeller said in 1987, \u201cthey are an enduring source of inspiration.\u201d\nEvents Around The Islands\nRay Yoshida: A Memorial Exhibition\nKauai-born artist ray yoshida was a teacher at school of the art institute of chicago. he is credited with mentoring many of the artists responsible for the chicago imagism movement, a concept that emerged in the 1960s, combining surrealism and a rebellion against the era\u2019s world art trends. critic ken Johnson referred to chicago imagism as \u201cthe postwar tradition of fantasy-based art making.\u201d The Contemporary Museum at First Hawaiian Center in downtown Honolulu.

        "raw_content": "It is about religious freedom\nby Darryl \u2014 Friday, 2/10/12 , 10:35 am\nObama announces \u201can accommodation\u201d on the birth control issue:\nThe \u201caccommodation\u201d is reasonable, and The Catholic Health Association (which was considered subversive by some Bishops during the 2009 health care debate) is \u201cvery pleased with the White House announcement\u201d.\nThe original issue is complete bullshit\u2014yet another unholy liaison between religious extremists and right wing political opportunists. As MoJo\u2019s Nick Baumann points out, much of the policy dates back to an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ruling back in December, 2000, that went entirely unchallenged by the Bush administration:\n\u201cIt was, we thought at the time, a fairly straightforward application of Title VII principles,\u201d a top former EEOC official who was involved in the decision told Mother Jones. \u201cAll of these plans covered Viagra immediately, without thinking, and they were still declining to cover prescription contraceptives. It\u2019s a little bit jaw-dropping to see what is going on now\u2026There was some press at the time but we issued guidances that were far, far more controversial.\u201d\nAfter the EEOC opinion was approved in 2000, reproductive rights groups and employees who wanted birth control access sued employers that refused to comply. The next year, in Erickson v. Bartell Drug Co., a federal court agreed with the EEOC\u2019s reasoning.\nSo what changed? Almost nothing:\n\u201cWe have used [the EEOC ruling] many times in negotiating with various employers,\u201d says Judy Waxman, the vice president for health and reproductive rights at the National Women\u2019s Law Center. \u201cIt has been in active use all this time. [President Obama\u2019s] policy is only new in the sense that it covers employers with less than 15 employees and with no copay for the individual. The basic rule has been in place since 2000.\u201d\nThe real issue at stake IS about religious freedom. It\u2019s about whether an employer can impose its religious views on employees\u2014and their bodies. It is whether individuals who work for religious-affiliated employers are required to accept their employer\u2019s extremist views.\nAnd, no mistake about it, a prohibition on contraception in America, in 2012, is an extremist view.\nNo. Individual rights to private matters of conscience\u2014and matters of personal health\u2014trump those of religious institutions.\nThe government is right to protect individuals from that institutional violence.\nThe Catholic Church is so out of touch with reality that\u2019s it\u2019s comical. Maybe back in the Twelth Century, when infant mortality was 50%, church rules against contraception made sense, but, hey, there are now 7 billion people on the planet. There\u2019s not much worry about us going extinct any time soon. Least of all the Catholics and Mormons!\nThe Catholic Church needs to wake up and smell the coffee: contraception makes sense if Catholics are to have any real quality of life. What did the Catholic Church\u2019s rules against contraception do to the Irish except keep them in poverty and indirectly support the oppression by the British for the past 800 years.\nHere\u2019s what you Catholics need to demand of your church: open support for contraception and abortion, women priests and married priests, regardless of gender. You church is stuck in the Twelth Century and not doing anything to join us all in the modern world. In short, if your church continues as it is now, it will become an interesting anachronism and will eventually die-out. The pope and all the other Cathoic churchmen are no more in touch with the Supreme Being than anybody else in the universe. You don\u2019t need them to follow your beliefs.\nDot spews:\nIf you believe the Catholic Church is out of touch on this issue, as I do, simply don\u2019t work for them. Issue solved.\n\u201csimply don\u2019t work for them. Issue solved.\u201d\nNo\u2026not unless the Catholic Church gets out of the health care business, the education business, the social services business, the landlord business, etc.\nThe law exempts houses of worship. But it becomes an issue when a religious institution employs people in non-religious service outside of a house of worship.\n@2 That\u2019s an oversimplification that assumes all workers are able to negotiate the terms and conditions of employment. The reality is different. In the absence of collective bargaining and/or government regulation, workers are at employers\u2019 mercy. This is simply a case where government is acting to protect workers from arbitrary employer behavior.\nDorky Dorkman spews:\nThis kind of BS is designed to make voters take their eye off the ball.\n@3 \u201cNo\u2026not unless the Catholic Church gets out of the health care business, the education business, the social services business, the landlord business, etc.\u201d\nWhich we should hope it doesn\u2019t do, because it actually does a lot of those things quite well.\nWhich, of course, begs the question: How in blue blazes can the church put forth and act upon Catholic Social Teaching and yet give tacit endorsement (albeit with a wink and a nod) to the likes of Santorum and Gingrich simply because they advocate the overturn of Roe v Wade?\nActually, I don\u2019t care whether the Catholic Church provides contraceptive healthcare or not. I\u2019d just like it if they got out of the Twelth Century and tried to at least make it to the 19th Century. I think at least the Protestant Christians (mostly) are at that level. Why do the Catholic have to live so far in the past?\nI heard a story that the Westboro Baptist Church morons might be showing up at the big rememberance service for the Powelll boys at a big Christian church here in Pierce County tomorrow. You remember those yahoos \u2013 they show up at soldiers\u2019 funerals to protest gay rights. They are truly ate-up with Christian hatred/zealotry. They blame all of the world\u2019s woes on tolerance for gays and lesbians. What a bunch of nut-cases! There\u2019s not much difference between them and Catholics and Protestants of Ireland.\nZotz sez: They have no shame and cannot be embarassed. spews:\nThis is simply a case where government is acting to protect workers from arbitrary employer behavior.\nSpeaking of protection from behavior by authority figures: how long do you think contraceptives would be an issue to the priests if little boys could get pregnant?\nThere\u2019s an exemption for anyone who works directly with church theology. That was always in there and should be in there.\nChurch based groups routinely get paid by various governments for things like social services and medical care. The question is, should a secular state have two sets of rules when awarding payments and contracts? It would seem to me that the state should be treating everyone competing for government payments and contracts the same.\nThere was a poll out a just a couple days ago showing that most catholic women use birth control and supported the church having to provide coverage for birth control to non-theological employees.\nThe group least likely to support churches having to provide coverage for birth control was evangelical christians.\nThe American catholic church went though a big too-do back in the 80\u2019s and quite a few of its more left leaning folks were purged from the ranks, which sucks but at least they go better treatment than their left leaning compatriots in Latin America.\nIf I was a woman and I saw Rick Santorum, I\u2019d be all \u201cget out of my cervix, bitch.\u201d\nRandroid spews:\nSo if I had a church that was running a hospital, and as a condition of getting health care, all the women had to wear full body burqas you conservatives would be fine with that, cause that\u2019s religious freedom?\nI guess in a conservative\u2019s mind, anything is allowed if you wrap it in \u201creligious freedom\u201d?\n@13 When wingnuts talk about being denied their religious freedom, they\u2019re usually talking about being denied the freedom to impose their religious beliefs on you.",

        "title": "Codeta Casino Review 2019 - An Honest Overview of This Online Casino - hot-casino.com",
        "raw_content": "A Complete Review of Codeta Online Casino\nCashouts in 3 to 5 days\nThis is going to be a complete Codeta review, meaning I'll be covering every important element of this casino site today. Games, bonuses, ongoing promotions, banking options, the level of customer service, and the overall usability of the site will be dealt with in depth, giving you an exhaustive overview of what Codeta casino offers you as a possible player.\nAs soon as I landed at Codeta, I knew this site was heavily focused on live dealer games. That's not all it offers, but it's clear the team running Codeta has made a decision to emphasize and push the live casino, and I was excited to check that out further.\nIf you're a new reader, you should know that this review site doesn't accept bribes, kickbacks, or any other form of incentive to change, edit, or modify casino reviews.\nMyself and other reviewers who write here tell you the plain truth as we see it. That's just how things have always been done around here, and that's why this site is number one for casino reviews.\nCodeta has built an extremely strong brand around live dealer games, and it's obvious why that is when you play here. It really is about the live games in every way, and there are even special bonuses to cater to players of this persuasion.\nI found nothing whatsoever wrong with this site, although, like most casinos I visit, there are a couple of creases I'd like to see ironed out. I'll get into those as the review unfolds, but one to pay attention to is the withdrawal methods available.\nAs far as everything else goes, Codeta is up there with the best casinos online. Even a quick glance at the ratings breakdown sections below will show you that there's only one area where Codeta scores below a 4.0/5.0.\nThis is a great all-rounder casino and will appeal especially if you are fond of live dealer table and card games.\nCodeta offers a great selection of games overall. The emphasis is clearly on the live casino, and there's even a special bonus to entice you to go in that direction.\nAs far as slots go, there are over 340, and more are being added all the time. This should be enough to keep most casual players happy, and there are plenty of opportunities to win progressive jackpots.\nCodeta doesn't offer many digital card and table games, although there are four dice games, which are relatively rare in online casinos.\nAs far as video poker goes, there are more than enough options to satisfy most players.\nI almost gave Codeta a lower score for this section, but it redeemed itself by offering fee-free deposits and withdrawals.\nWhy did I come close to a lower score? Because there are only two withdrawal methods, and they happen to be the slowest of the bunch: bank transfer and Trustly.\nI always give casinos a hard time for this. In my view, there should be an equal number of ways to get your money out as there are to put money on the site.\nThis is the only area I would highlight as an area for improvement ASAP.\nHaving said that, there are very few reports of problems with withdrawals. It seems that Codeta is an honest operator in this regard, but you'll just have to be patient.\nCodeta offers not one but two welcome bonuses, giving you a bit of a choice, depending on what sort of player you are. This is a great thing and shows that Codeta recognizes that not all players fit one mold.\nThere's a standard welcome deposit bonus or a cashback bonus if you want to play live games. I found these both to be competitive when compared to what's offered elsewhere.\nThe only thing you need to watch out for is that deposits made via Neteller and Skrill are both excluded from these offers. That's something which could catch some off guard.\nThere are also various weekly promotions which change as time goes on. Keep your eyes on your email inbox and the promos page to find out if free spins or extra cashback are up for grabs.\nI found the Codeta customer service agents to be super helpful, and I felt valued as a player when I asked questions via the live chat option.\nHowever, there's no telephone support option. That's not all that bad in actuality, but I always give the highest points to casinos which consider players who like to make a call.\nI didn't send an email myself, but from what I can gather from existing Codeta players, everyone is reasonably happy with response times and the level of service received.\nCodeta could definitely get a 5.0/5.0 here if a toll-free telephone hotline was offered. If someone from Codeta is reading, get on it!\nThe Codeta website itself is reasonably attractive, if a little dull. It could do with a makeover, although that's not to say there's anything wrong with it in terms of functionality or bugs.\nThe only thing I don't like about it is how the games are laid out. I'm used to rows of thumbnails, and I like scrolling through them, but at Codeta, I have to scroll sideways. This is quite confusing and makes it difficult to get an \"overview\" of all the available games.\nThere is a search feature which allows you to zero in on any particular games you have in mind. That's nice, but a few extra search filters would help even further.\nBased on the flash site alone, I would happily give the Codeta mobile casino a 5.0/5.0 score. However, I know some players prefer to download an app, and there isn't one available here.\nUnlike many mobile casinos, there are no game restrictions at Codeta. It makes no discernable difference if you log in via an iPad or a desktop computer. The full range of games is offered, including the live dealer options.\nI visited on my Android device, and the experience was fantastic. Codeta has really knocked it out of the ballpark with its mobile site.\nThe Basics About Codeta Casino\nI always begin my casino site audits by checking out the licenses a given site has. Codeta has gaming licenses from the UK Gambling Commission, the Malta Gaming Authority, and Curacao iGaming. This means it is literally as safe as houses. Any one of these would be enough to give me confidence, but all three together means very good things.\nCodeta as a brand was launched in 2016, but this casino is owned and operated by EveryMatrix NV, a highly experienced operator behind some huge casino brands such as PlayFrank, Fantasino, and Yako Casino. You can relax in the knowledge that you're in good hands here.\nPlayers from the following countries won't be able to play at Codeta:\nNeedless to say, if gambling is illegal in your country, you won't be accepted at Codeta, either.\nOnline casinos are definitely moving in the direction of live dealer games, so seeing that Codeta is promoting that as its main \"thing\" shows me that this casino is ahead of the times.\nI won't give away too much at this point, but let's just say that this is a casino you could easily play at for many years to come. Don't be confused when you first land if live games are all you can see. Explore the site further, and you'll find there's much more on offer.\nIn the rest of this section, I'm going to zoom in and focus on the important elements which will help you decide whether or not this is the right casino for you. Feel free to skip ahead to any section or take in the entire review one section at a time.\nBy the end, you'll be an expert on Codeta.\nAn ideal casino will provide a selection of games to suit all tastes, although most choose to focus on one type of game in particular.\nIt's clear that at Codeta live games are the main event. These are the first games you'll see when you land in the lobby, and there are 100 of them in total, although these are mostly variants of a core few games. I'll outline the exact games available in the live games section below.\nThere are 340+ slots, and the library is being constantly updated as new games come out. Some of the best slot games on the web are available here, meaning Codeta offers a lot more than just live dealer table and card games.\nThere are a handful of virtual casino games in digital form. You'll be able to play baccarat, a couple of popular poker variants, craps, Sic Bo, Sharp Shooter, a few variants of keno, Ludo, and Poker Dice in the Codeta virtual casino.\nThere's also a solid range of video poker games to choose from, with single-hand and multi-hand versions of most games offered.\nAll of the games load quickly, play smoothly, and I experienced no major issues like jumps or getting booted out of the games.\nThat's mostly down to the quality software providers Codeta has chosen to work with. I'll talk about those in the section immediately following this.\nLots of the digital versions of games are provided by Microgaming, so experienced players will already know that means they're the best of the best.\nI would like to see some sort of \"add to favorites\" feature or something similar. The Codeta game layout is quite inconvenient to scroll through, so each time I wanted to find something, I had to use the search bar at the top.\nThese are all reputable software firms. I personally stick with the better-known names like NetEnt, Microgaming, and NextGen. However, even some of those you might not have heard of, such as Booming Games, have an established presence across online casinos, and I have no concerns about them.\nSpinning the reels is without a doubt one of the most fun pastimes online, period. There are few games more exciting at any casino than jackpot slots offering you the chance to become a multimillionaire on any given spin.\nFrom games with complex bonus rounds and multiple levels to simple slots with colossal jackpots, or a combination of the two, slots have become the main attraction at most online casinos, and rightly so.\nDespite the fact that Codeta heavily promotes its live games, it offers a fantastic selection of slots, too.\nWhile the Codeta slots catalog is excellent in terms of quality, it isn't the biggest I have ever seen. It's true that 340+ slots will be enough for most people, but I have encountered casinos online with 1,000 or more video slots on offer.\nThere are a few big-name progressive jackpot slots available if you want to cut straight to the chase and go for the big jackpots. Hall of Gods, Mega Fortune, Mega Moolah, and Divine Fortune are all in the lineup. These can all give you a chance to become instantly rich.\nYou'll be able to play most of the slots in \"demo mode,\" which means you can check out the quality and some of the games you might potentially like without taking any risk. I always appreciate when a casino is confident enough in its games to let you try them without commitment.\nIf you're looking for some game recommendations, I suggest the following:\nArabian Nights (progressive jackpot)\nJungle Spirit - Call of the Wild\nIrish Eyes II\nThere are many other fantastic slots to choose from. I just picked these because I particularly enjoy the bonus features they offer and/or because they offer huge jackpots.\nVideo poker is a game of skill, rather than pure chance, and it's for that reason (mostly) that you'll always find me battling it out against the video poker machines at any casino I find myself in.\nApart from the fact that it's possible to beat video poker with time and practice, I find these games to be some of the most fun, too. There are few adrenaline rushes quite like knowing you could be onto a Royal Flush with just a couple of clicks of a button, and that's the main appeal of video poker.\nCodeta offers a solid selection of variants, although as you'll see below, it's mostly the popular games with multi-hand variants making the number of games seem larger than it is.\nVideo poker games at Codeta include:\nAll American (1-Hand)\nAll American (10-Hand)\nAll American (100-Hand)\nDeuces Wild (1-Hand)\nDeuces Wild (10-Hand)\nJacks or Better (1-Hand)\nJacks or Better (10-Hand)\nJacks or Better (100-Hand)\nJoker Wild (1-Hand)\nJoker Wild (10-Hand)\nJoker Wild (100-Hand)\nThis will keep most players happy, although some true video poker enthusiasts might note that these are mostly multi-hand versions of a few core game variants. Either way, it's a bigger selection than what many other casinos I've played at recently offer.\nIn terms of game quality, these various games are provided by NetEnt and Microgaming. That means they're as close to flawless as casino games get.\nBets start at \u00a31, and if you're out to win big, you can play for \u00a350 per hand in some games.\nI've mentioned a couple of times already that live games are the future, and Codeta has realized this early. It took me a while of digging around before I even found any virtual games. If you use the search feature, though, you'll be able to find them faster.\nWhile most of the popular games such as blackjack and roulette aren't available in digital form, there are some poker, dice, and card games worth checking out. I don't know about you, but I still like to play against machines sometimes. Admittedly, if you feel the same way, Codeta might not be the best choice for you.\nYou can play the following in the Codeta virtual casino:\nHigh-Speed Poker\nThere are also several themed variants of keno including Keno Pop, Monkey Keno, Tutan Keno, and Lucky Keno.\nThere are 100 live games available in total, but they're all variants of those listed below. For example, there are dozens of blackjack games with different dealers and betting limits.\nHigh Roller Blackjack\nThe games are all provided by NetEnt and Evolution Gaming. These two companies need no introduction and are leaps and bounds ahead of most of the competition. Needless to say, then, the games load quickly and are close to flawless.\nBetting starts at just \u00a30.10 (e.g., roulette) and goes as high as \u00a310,000 (e.g., some poker games and roulette). This means the live games will be open to you no matter what your bankroll.\nIt can't be emphasized enough - if you're a fan of live dealer games, Codeta is a match made in heaven for you.\nThere are a decent number of ways to make deposits, but there are only two withdrawal methods. I always call online casinos out on that, and I'm doing it again now - come on, Codeta, pull your socks up!\nThe good thing about all the deposit and withdrawal methods is that they are fee-free. This goes some way to making up for having only two ways to get out any winnings.\nAs compared to most other casinos, the deposit methods are average, and the withdrawal methods need to be worked on.\nMax Withdrawal \u00a35,000 Fee: \u00a30\nThere are two other things worth noting in the banking section.\nFirst, Codeta will ask you to verify your identity for withdrawals larger than \u00a32,000.\nSecond, if you're inactive for more than 12 months, an account maintenance fee of \u00a35 will be charged every month and deducted from your real money balance.\nCodeta offers a choice between two welcome bonuses for all new players. There are also regular time-limited promotions. I'll delve into these in further detail in this section.\nCodeta Deposit Bonus\nYou can claim 100% up to \u00a3300 as a first-time depositor at Codeta.\nThis is a one-time deposit bonus, and you can claim it all at once. The minimum deposit is \u00a310, and the wagering requirements are 35x. That makes the wagering terms slightly higher than average, but not so much so that the offer becomes unattractive.\nNote that deposits made via Neteller and Skrill are not eligible for the welcome bonus offer.\nCodeta Live Casino Cashback Bonus\nIf you choose to play exclusively in the live casino, you can claim a 10% top up/cashback offer.\nWhat does this mean, exactly? It means that if you're up after seven days of play, Codeta will boost your winnings by 10%. If you're down, however, you'll recoup 10% of your losses as bonus cash.\nYou'll have to make a deposit of at least \u00a310 to be eligible, and the minimum amount you can claim back is \u00a35, indicating you'll need to either win or lose at least \u00a350 to be eligible.\nNote that the maximum bonus you can claim is \u00a33,000. This is potentially huge, although you'll have to bet a lot to get it, and it is a highly attractive offer.\nThe wagering requirements on this bonus are also extremely low, coming in at just 1x. You'll need to wager it within 7 days, though.\nAgain, deposits made via Neteller and Skrill aren't eligible.\nCodeta seems to be expanding since I checked it out back when it first launched, and it now offers free spins every weekend to broaden its appeal to slots players.\nKeep in mind that the free spins aren't always available, but Codeta does run regular promotions offering them every weekend of certain months.\nFor example, this month, you can claim 25 free spins on Starburst every weekend in return for a \u00a325 deposit.\nYou'll need to deposit the \u00a325 all at once, and 35x wagering terms will apply.\nWeekly Cashback Bonuses\nAgain, these aren't always available, but Codeta does run them regularly throughout the year.\nAn example of a weekly cashback offer would be 25% back on your losses from Tuesday - Monday up to the value of \u00a350.\nIf you opt into these bonuses, you'll need to make a deposit of at least \u00a310 in the previous game week, and 45x wagering terms apply. That's a little high in my view. This is, therefore, the least attractive of the various Codeta bonus offers.\nCodeta VIP Program\nCodeta does have a VIP/loyalty program, but it has none of the levels and points systems you're probably used to.\nIt's made clear in the VIP section that the Codeta team decides on a VIP list at the end of each month. If you make the cut, you'll be invited. It's that simple.\nSo, what can you expect if you manage to become a Codeta VIP?\nPersonal payment services (faster withdrawals and better options)\nSpecial Codeta bonuses\nThis seems like a decent program, although it's hardly what I would call mind-blowing. It would be nice to know exactly what's required to qualify, though.\nMobile players now rule the roost at online casinos, making up the majority of both existing and new players worldwide. That trend isn't going to suddenly stop and reverse, and I'd say it will be close to 80% ten years from now.\nCodeta has provided a fully functional, high-quality mobile flash casino. I'll get into some of the details regarding it in this section.\nDo keep in mind that since Codeta heavily emphasizes its live games, you will need a device with a decent-sized screen (such as an iPad) to really enjoy the full experience.\nThe Codeta mobile casino looks almost identical to the desktop version, except the menus and layout are slightly different.\nYou'll find the login and registration buttons at the very bottom of the screen. Once in, you'll see a little mail icon in the bottom right. If there are any current bonuses or offers you haven't claimed, you'll be alerted there. If you want to explore areas of your account or contact the customer support agents, those tabs are found at the top via a drop-down menu and several other icons.\nAs far as the games go, there's no difference when compared to the desktop site. Since this is a mobile flash site rather than an app, you'll have access to all the same games. There are 340+ slots and over 100 live games, and then there are video poker titles and some digital table and dice games, too.\nI'm impressed by this mobile casino. Most casinos offer a limited range of games to mobile players, but Codeta makes sure mobile players have the same access as their desktop counterparts.\nAs far as functionality goes, everything is one-touch, and I didn't encounter any bugs, broken links, or problems.\nBravo, Codeta, your mobile casino is world-class!\nThe Codeta customer support team can be reached via strictly digital mediums. Yes, that means there is no telephone support.\nEmail - The address you're looking for is [email protected] - it's best to reserve this for non-urgent matters, as replies can take between 3-6 hours, depending on how busy it is. That's really not a bad response time at all, but it's hardly any good if your account is frozen and you want to play NOW.\nLive Chat - I got connected with a live chat agent called Patrik within around 10 seconds. He was helpful and answered most of my questions directly, although he did refer me to the terms and conditions once, which always ticks me off slightly.\nThe Codeta customer support team is helpful, and it's great to see that these options are available all day, every day. However, a telephone hotline would really elevate things to the next level. Believe it or not, there are still people who prefer to pick up the phone and chat with someone.\nCodeta is excellent in the areas in which it has chosen to excel (live games), and it is doing well in most other areas, such as customer service, bonuses and promotions, and other types of games such as slots and video poker.\nThere are a few areas for improvement, such as the need for telephone support and a better VIP program, but these are minor things in the grand scheme. The only area it needs to really work on ASAP is increasing the number of withdrawal methods.\nOverall, I truly enjoyed playing here. I think you probably will, too.\nCodeta will leave most players satisfied and coming back for more. I didn't experience a single \"uh-oh\" moment while checking it out. That's not to be taken lightly because, having played at just about every casino on the web at some point, I'm a tough customer to please.\nI definitely recommend checking out Codeta, especially if you like live casino games.\nWhy does Codeta offer so many live games? What are the advantages of playing them?\nThe online casino industry as a whole is moving towards live games and away from virtual games. Codeta has simply chosen to weave this into its image. Many players prefer live games because they're more social and it feels more legit when you can see what the dealer is doing.\nHow do I know Codeta is a trustworthy site?\nThe gaming licenses are the first big clue. Then, you have the fact that this site is working with some of the biggest names in casino games software. Finally, see the http:// before the Codeta web address? That means it's a secure, encrypted connection, and your data will be safe.\nWill the Codeta live games work on my mobile device?\nYes, they will. I would wait to play them on a device with a decent-sized screen, though. This will ensure you have the best gaming experience possible.\nAre there any Codeta bonus codes required to claim the offers mentioned above?\nNo, you won't need a bonus code for the welcome offers. There are some time-limited promotions which come out throughout the year. You'll have to check if bonus codes are required for those at the time.\nDoes Codeta offer other gambling services like sports betting or poker?\nNo, this is a pure casino. Live games, slots, and video poker are what Codeta is all about.\nDoes Codeta accept American players?\nSadly, no. However, we do have reviews of several casinos which do. Feel free to check them out!",

This ensured that there were homes to meet a whole spectrum of purchasers and needs.\nAs well as increasing the desirability of the estate as a place to live and attracting people back to Mandale, it was important to ensure homes were provided for the existing residents who wish to stay on the estate. The consortium worked in close partnership with Nomad Housing Association and Stockton Borough Council to ensure that new homes provided meet the needs of the existing residents.

        "raw_content": "Flight Controls, Maintenance, and Fresh Warm Air\nAs the spring and summer flying season starts to get rolling, we need to be aware of certain potential hazards that could cause us great harm, or worse, if left unchecked. Take the flight control check, for example. If you have done it enough times, it becomes repetitive, so are you really paying attention to what you are doing?\nThere are two possible hazards looming that come to mind. The first is unavoidable: control cables contracting and expanding. This is a function of temperature. Its basic physics, when the temperature gets hotter things expand, and when it gets colder things contract. This principle applies to your flight controls too. So those cables you finally got balanced and tensioned just right last fall, are probably anything but now. Changes in temperature can change the length of these cables leading to slack (or lack of slack) in the cables resulting in \u201csloppy\u201d controls or in extreme cases the possible loss of control effectiveness.\nThe other hazard is the chance that something could go wrong during maintenance. Sometimes a mechanic simply makes a mistake, but as one mechanic said, mechanics don\u2019t make small mistakes. One small thing left undone can have tragic consequences, so perform a very detailed preflight. The most dangerous time to fly an airplane is probably when it is fresh out of maintenance.\nWhile there are many flight control accidents to choose from, these two 2003 accidents involve Beech 1900D aircraft and are remarkably similar. These accidents do not reflect any defect or inherent safety problem in the aircraft itself, but rather are just two similar accidents that happened to occur in the same kind of aircraft. All information regarding these accidents was taken directly from the NTSB reports.\n(NTSB/AAR-04/01)\nOn January 8, 2003, Air Midwest Flight 5481 suffered a loss of pitch control on takeoff from Charlotte-Douglas International Airport. The Beechcraft 1900D aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff, killing 19 passengers, two crew members, and one person on the ground. The aircraft crashed into a US Airways maintenance hangar and came to rest about 1,650 feet east of the runway.\nThe aircraft had been in for maintenance just prior to the accident, from the night of January 6 to the next morning. Specifically, the maintenance completed was the \u201cdetail 6\u201d (D6) check which covers the aft fuselage and empennage including the pitch control systems. The airplane completed nine flights after the D6 check before the accident on the tenth flight. The aircraft managed to fly normal service after the D6 check and was handed off to the accident crew with no reports of any problems. The previous first officer during the hand off told the new first officer that \u201ceverything was normal\u201d and \u201cit was a good flying airplane.\u201d(AAR-04/01, p1)\nThe NTSB concluded that the probable cause of the accident was: \u201c\u2026the airplane\u2019s loss of pitch control during takeoff. The loss of pitch control resulted from the incorrect rigging of the elevator control system compounded by the airplane\u2019s aft center of gravity, which was substantially aft of the certified aft limit.\u201d(AAR-04/01, p131)\nWhen the elevator control cables were adjusted during the inspection, they were incorrectly rigged to provide a maximum of seven degrees Aircraft Nose Down (AND), which is about half of the downward travel specified by the manufacturer (AAR-04/01, p128). The NTSB calculated that an input of 9.5 degrees AND would have been required to recover from the initial upset. As this was not possible, the flight was doomed as soon as it took off. In this case, it was a combination of an excessively aft center of gravity (CG) and limited control authority that lead to this loss. As the circumstances around this flight show, the aircraft was flyable with a CG within limits. It flew fine on the previous nine flights following maintenance. These flights included ones flown by the accident crew and at least one other crew. Neither of these crews discovered the incorrectly rigged pitch controls, and clearly from the comments cited above, there was no sense of any abnormal situation with regard to the aircraft. The loss of control would not have occurred without the aft CG, but the aircraft would have likely been controllable with the aft CG had the crew been able to exercise full authority over the downward travel of the elevator. It\u2019s possible the crew might have been able to recover from the upset and return to the field. But the fatal combination of aft CG and reduced control travel left the crew with no ability to avert disaster.\n(NYC03MA183)\nOn August 26, 2003, Colgan Air Flight 9446 attempted to take off on a flight from Barnstable Municipal Airport in Hyannis, Massachusetts, to Albany International Airport in Albany, New York. During the takeoff roll, the pitch trim system began to move in the downward direction. The initial movement speed from 1.5 degrees AND to 3.0 degrees AND was consistent with the electric pitch trim motor. Four seconds later the pitch trim movement increased from 3.0 degrees AND to 7.0 degrees AND at a speed that was beyond the capacity of the electric motor. The crew declared an emergency, reporting runway trim, and attempted to return to the airport. The flight reached 1,100 feet while attempting to return to the airport. \u201cWitnesses observed the airplane in a left turn, with a nose-up attitude. The airplane then pitched nose-down and impacted the water \u2018nose first.\u2019\u201d(NYC03MA183) Only the flight crew was on board the aircraft, both were killed.\nThe accident aircraft had been brought in for its D6 check on August 23. On the morning of August 24 the check was interrupted and the remaining work was deferred. Ten revenue flights were conducted. The evening of August 24th the aircraft was returned for completion of the D6 check which was concluded on the 26th. Extensive work was done on the pitch trim tabs and trim control system (Check the report for specifics). After takeoff the crew reported the runway trim and manually selected Aircraft Nose Up (ANU) trim settings, but the aircraft trimmed full AND. The control column force was measured at 250 pounds, but the crew was unable to maintain control.\n\u201cThe Safety Board performed a miss-rigging demonstration on an exemplar airplane, which reversed the elevator trim system. An operational check on that airplane revealed that when the electric trim motor was activated in one direction, the elevator trim tabs moved in the correct direction, but the trim wheel moved opposite of the corresponding correct direction. When the manual trim wheel was moved in one direction, the elevator trim tabs moved opposite of the corresponding correct direction.\u201d (NYC03MA183).\nThe NTSB determined that the probable cause of the accident was: \u201cThe improper replacement of the forward elevator trim cable, and subsequent inadequate functional check of the maintenance performed, which resulted in a reversal of the elevator trim system and a loss of control in-flight.\u201d (NYC03MA183).\nBecause the crew did not perform a first flight of the day check, as company policy and manuals required, they were unaware of any problem. The replacement of the elevator trim cable was noted in the aircraft release paperwork, but no mention of that was made by the crew. Several non-pertinent conversations were noted in the transcript of the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR). With the flight being empty it is possible the crew may not have been as conscientious as they would be if there were passengers on board. The NTSB cited \u201c\u2026the flight crew\u2019s failure to follow the checklist procedures\u2026\u201d as a factor in this accident.\nThe point of the preceding examples is flight control malfunctions/maintenance errors happen. Airlines have professional maintenance organizations that usually specialize in, or have specialized training on, the make or model of aircraft they are servicing. Almost all GA mechanics are very professional and have extensive training, but in most cases they are more generalistic. This is the only practical system. While they have probably worked on most models, they may not have worked on your particular version or model. Most airports can\u2019t support specialized mechanics only for Cessna, Piper, Cirrus, Beechcraft, Mooney, and several other manufacturers \u2013 not to mention all of the different avionics and engine suppliers. So if you fly a Cessna 172, almost any mechanic probably knows it front to back, but if you fly a Socata Tampico (or any of a number of less popular aircraft) you might be out of luck. As a practical matter, these generalist mechanics are a perfect solution in realistic terms. Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) section 43.13 (a), which covers performance rules for mechanics, states:\n\u201cEach person performing maintenance, alteration, or preventive maintenance on an aircraft, engine, propeller, or appliance shall use the methods, techniques, and practices prescribed in the current manufacturer\u2019s maintenance manual or Instructions for Continued Airworthiness prepared by its manufacturer, or other methods, techniques, and practices acceptable to the Administrator\u2026\u201d\nTitle 14 CFR section 65.81(a) tells us mechanics are required to have performed any maintenance task successfully, under supervision, before they can do it on their own. Most mechanics probably do not get a chance to practice every procedure, on every type of aircraft, on a regular basis. But with strong general skills and guidance provided by the manufacturers, GA mechanics do a superb job keeping the fleet running. The point is, if a crew with extensive specialized training can make mistakes, as was the case in both of these accidents, then there is the chance that any mechanic could do the same.\nOn the other side of the coin, professional, trained flight crews failed to notice any problem until it was too late. Again, these were flight crew trained to Airline Transport Pilot standards (at least the captains) which are far more rigorous, with greater frequency requirements, than most GA pilots face. Most airline pilots also fly more frequently than many GA pilots, leading to greater proficiency. They also have access to higher quality simulators to practice emergency procedures with far greater fidelity. Yet in these accidents they failed to detect any problem. In the first case, the problem may have been more difficult to detect. In the second case, the failure to do a thorough preflight and before takeoff check eliminated any chance for detection. What makes the second case especially troubling is that the aircraft came directly out of maintenance with notations about what had been done. Every sign was there to alert the crew to the potential for a problem with the elevator trim. So they should have been paying attention and done a much more thorough check of the pitch control and pitch trim systems. Would you be able to recognize a problem if you saw one? At least three airline crews didn\u2019t (one crew for the Colgan accident and at least two crews for the Air Midwest accident).\nIn GA, our airplanes may be less complicated, but the question remains: Would we even know if things weren\u2019t as they should be? We can generally determine whether or not things are pointing in the right directions. But would we notice a more subtle defect in the rigging? In the case of the Air Midwest accident, it was an incorrect rigging that likely would have been hard to detect. The error cost the crew just enough to make the accident inevitable. While a confluence of factors had to come together to make this happen, it is a situation that most GA pilots can probably envision for themselves. You\u2019re getting ready for a big trip. You called your local Fixed Base Operator (FBO) to arrange for an aircraft rental (I specify a rental here because that would be more akin to the environment of an airline where pilots don\u2019t have a single airplane they always fly, but the same situation is possible with an aircraft owner) for the next few days to visit friends or relatives a few hundred miles away. As a favor to you, just trying to be a good service provider, the FBO assigns you an aircraft fresh out of maintenance with a clean annual/100 hour inspection. You carefully work out the weight and balance for you and your three compatriots, bags, and other items. At the last minute, one of your passengers loads a bag in the rear that they forgot to mention to you while you were inside taking care of one thing or another. Many passengers probably wouldn\u2019t have an understanding of CG or Max Gross Takeoff weights. Now you\u2019ve just found yourself in the same situation as the Air Midwest crew, a hopeless one if you take off.\nThe old analogy, accidents happen when the holes in the Swiss cheese of our safety nets line up precisely, is likely to remain correct regardless of our efforts. Our goal is to reduce the size of the holes and improve our chances of survival. While we can\u2019t say with any certainty that any preflight\u2019s done were improper or inadequate, the NTSB report in one case suggests that the crew did not follow the operating checklists very closely. In the case of the Air Midwest accident, it may not have helped at all. In the case of the Colgan accident, the crew was not as careful or thorough as they should have been considering that the aircraft just rolled out of maintenance. According to the report, the captain noted the inoperative Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) but made no mention of the freshly replaced elevator trim cable that was listed in the same paperwork.\nThis time of the year you are probably thinking about what to do on your summer vacation. What we can learn from these deadly accidents is the need to be especially vigilant with aircraft coming out of maintenance. Maybe we should do a thorough control preflight when we know the rigging is right to get a mental picture of what full deflection should be. One extra step you might consider taking is reviewing the Type Certificate Data Sheet (TCDS) for the aircraft you normally fly. These documents contain the proper deflection angles for any aircraft. They are available for free from the FAA at <http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgMakeModel.nsf/MainFrame?OpenFrameSet>. This information, combined with a simple grade school protractor, would allow you to insure your flight controls are as they should be. Insuring our own safety, and that of our passengers, is about making every possible effort to gain maximum advantage. This stresses the need for a greater understanding of how flight controls (or any other critical system) really work and how they might be affected by maintenance or changes in conditions. This understanding, along with a professional dedication to do more than a cursory preflight, will help us reduce the risks we naturally face in our pursuit of flying.",

        "raw_content": "by Silhouette \u00bb Thu Jan 04, 2018 2:14 am\nSo we all know that taxation is theft if you're pro-Capitalist and property is theft if you're anti-Capitalist...\nConsider the flat-to-progressive taxation that we currently get in the actual mixed economies that we get in the West though.\nThe whole point of for-profit business is for the employer to make money from employees - that's the whole incentive. It's the compensation for risking your capital, right? These are the arguments you usually hear.\nBut that's the thing: given that an employer makes a choice to derive their income from the practice of distributing expenses to employees in such a way that they amount to less than the total revenues earned by said employees (the definition of profit), is it therefore morally justifiable for them to complain when they pay more tax the more the disparity between earned employee wages and employee drawings? Ought they not to be disincentivised from free-loading out of a sense of entitlement - by the only body powerful enough to do so?\nWhat if the employer contributes towards the work that earns revenues? Then why not pay themselves a wage in proportion to the revenue that they actually contributed to making, no differently to the way that all other participants are compensated in proportion to the revenues that they attracted? A difficult balance to judge for sure, but the fairness of such a distribution method could easily be agreed upon by all contributing parties if the transparency and agency existed - and an employer is only going to be rewarded for their ability to hire the most reasonable employees in this respect - ones who will recognise the efforts and results of their employer and respect and allow a higher proportion of earnings whenever deserved. Actual meritocracy.\nBut surely the employer is entitled to draw from the earnings of their company with private discretion because it is their capital investment that allowed others to earn anything at all for themselves? In the same way that charging rent is charging others for not being as rich as you and not being able to afford their own home, a desire to use capital to add value doesn't only happen to those who can afford to realise it. Ideas for adding value happen to those who can't afford to do so as well - in what way is it a free market if so many are not free to enact their own entrepreneurship? Let's not kid ourselves that real money is in business with low capital expenses anymore (apart from cons of course).\nBesides, it is the choice of the employer to risk his own riches by investing it in their company or any other company - nobody is forcing them. Their choices are to spend it on consumables, save it and gain nothing but a feeling of security, or to use it as capital and potentially gain more from it - and just like with any gambler, the highest risk is part and parcel of the highest reward. Otherwise it's just Socialism for the greedy, eh? Of course the rich are going to continue to choose this option no matter how much they are taxed, there's zero risk of tax countering the incentive for the rich to invest. How else are they going to corner and maintain their own dominance?\nThese have been arguments in favour of hard work and fairness, meritocracy and freedom, and against greed without accountability. All of these are achieved through, if not co-operative partnerships or sole-trading, the simple act of flat-to-progressive taxation (the more progressive the taxation the more one's morality is grounded in the values I have put forward). There is no compromise to competition, quite the opposite - it's just channeled into performance instead of loss aversion (the only justification whatsoever for the level of social immobility that is currently the most rewarded outcome that we see in the current Western economic model). Economies in their entirety cause them to turn out how they do, not just employers, not just one's company and employees, everyone - and taxation is the way to feed back to indirect causes of wealth where drawings and wages are for the direct causes.\nRe: The morality of taxation\nby Silhouette \u00bb Thu Feb 08, 2018 1:39 am\nSo who actually pays tax?\nTo begin in much the same way as the opening post, we all know the pro-Capitalists will argue that the richest pay it all and Social Democrats will argue that they don't pay enough. But I want to push these notions further.\nConsider, to start with, if employees incurred income tax, if that tax was removed and transferred to corporation tax and/or to sales tax incurred by the employer (to keep tax revenues the same), the effect would cancel out. The employer would simply reduce what was formerly gross wages to what was formerly net wages. The employee would take home the same amount and the employer would pay no more in wage expenses than before.\nNow let's say if this accumulated corporation tax and/or sales tax is removed and added to any existing purchase tax, to keep tax revenues the same, the extra profit or the reduced expenses from no tax being applied to either would be cancelled out by having to reduce prices so that with the extra tax added onto them, the consumer wouldn't be put off their purchases by having to pay more. So far the burden of taxation has been passed on from employee to employer to consumer.\nBut now let's say if purchase tax were removed it could.... be transferred to income tax to keep tax revenues the same?! And prices could be put back up from what was formerly the net price to what was formerly the gross price, to keep them the same too. But now let's say instead of income tax being transferred to a tax paid by the employer like before, what if wages were decreased so that together with tax they cost the employer the same. Now employees have less money to spend on consumption, meaning employers can't charge the same prices and still sell in the same volumes. Their revenues are hurt, meaning they can't afford to pay as much in wages and so on - showing how taxation can just as easily cause deflationary effects as inflationary. Usually inflation is assumed to occur due to taxation, because adding tax increases the numbers that were formerly in play.\nSo tax neither necessarily causes inflation or deflation, and the effects are also passed around the whole economy indefinitely - meaning it doesn't actually land or pool in any one area over another. The same inequality distribution emerges with or without it. In fact all that does happen as a result of tax is that money is diverted through a government body and then back into the private sector as though it never left.\nHow can taxation be considered immoral (or even moral) if it ultimately has zero economic effect? It's economically amoral.\nThe argument that force is immorally being applied when somebody is taxed now comes into serious question.\nHow can an effect that is cancelled out be an application of force? Taking nothing from someone without consent cannot be considered forceful.\nSo both the notions that the rich pay all the tax, or that the rich ought to pay more tax are meaningless in an unplanned economy - numbers are simply adjusted to compensate wherever tax is applied, preserving proportionality throughout.\nTo make this into a trilogy, why don't I close with some stats.\nI recently gathered some data about tax revenues for each country and compared this, per population to GDP per person in the same country.\nUnsurprisingly (to me at least) there is a marked positive correlation between tax revenues per person and GDP per person - that is to say, the more tax is charged to each person overall, the more these people tend to create in output of goods and services. The correlation actually ranges from merely distinct like with Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong to quite extreme like with Scandinavia, Luxembourg and other rich European countries, compared to countries of the world with low GDP per person and low tax revenues - basically all the third world through Africa, Asia and to South America. America ranks similarly with Canada in the mid-bottom tier of Europe with countries like the UK and Germany.\nBasically, the more social democratic a country, the more efficient it is. The more the private sector is kept in check by taxation that acts economically as nothing more than a buffer and pays for everything that the private sector can't make a profit out of, the better for everyone.\nby Peter Kropotkin \u00bb Thu Feb 08, 2018 4:02 am\ndam it.....don't you hate it when those pesky facts have a liberal bias.....\nby URUZ \u00bb Thu Feb 08, 2018 4:09 am\nI would offer the obvious response here, but by this point I rarely make the mistake anymore of assuming a living mind sits on the other side of the forum text window that I see here on my screen, and I am not very well equipped, psychologically speaking, to speak to chimps as if they were humans. I find such behavior far too insulting to actual chimps, that I simply refuse to engage in it any longer.\nby URUZ \u00bb Thu Feb 08, 2018 2:48 pm\nby Zero_Sum \u00bb Thu Feb 08, 2018 4:35 pm\nWhether libertarians or extreme capitalists in their horrid perception of individualism accept it most of the time not taxation is needed to collectively maintain public society as it is a collectivist not a individualist network of people. What I do understand from them to which I'll agree upon is the fiscal misuse and misappropriation of public tax revenues that is rampant. I agree that there should be huge taxation reforms all across the board in society. The talk however from libertarians and extreme capitalists especially of the anarchist variety of zero taxes or that taxation is theft is ridiculously absurd.\nAlso, it is the poor low income people that pay the bulk of the taxes and taxation is largely in the favor of the wealthy all across the west. Theft is perfectly acceptable and legal when it means the theft of the poor or low income, this sick hypocritical duplicity must end.\nThe wealthy parasites of the upper echelons of all societies should be executed for their crimes against everybody else and one day hopefully soon they'll come to know vengeance by all the lives they have destroyed for their sense of entitlement that has been going on for many numerous decades.\nLast edited by Zero_Sum on Thu Feb 08, 2018 10:24 pm, edited 1 time in total.\nby Silhouette \u00bb Thu Feb 08, 2018 10:01 pm\nUrGod wrote: I would offer the obvious response here, but by this point I rarely make the mistake anymore of assuming a living mind sits on the other side of the forum text window that I see here on my screen, and I am not very well equipped, psychologically speaking, to speak to chimps as if they were humans.

While that taking on of risk is directly compensated, it's also socially beneficial to have people take on risk, because it encourages experimentation and innovation and progress. There are positive externalities to productive risk taking, so rewarding it is good for society.\nSecond, the value of risk isn't fixed or known. Business can attempt to set the return on investment at whatever level they want, but the market won't bear arbitrary levels of return. If the industry is competitive (and it should be if we've encouraged people to take on the risk of entering the market), then a business that has too much disparity between earnings and wages will lose out to one who either pays its workers more or charges consumers less. This competition establishes the value of the risk.\nSilhouette wrote: So tax neither necessarily causes inflation or deflation, and the effects are also passed around the whole economy indefinitely - meaning it doesn't actually land or pool in any one area over another.

When a government taxes and spends, in spending it diverts productive labor away from what it would otherwise be doing, and so increases competition for that labor, and thus increases the price for labor. By taxing and spending, government is entering the market as another buyer, so they shift the demand curve and thus the price.\nSilhouette wrote: there is a marked positive correlation between tax revenues per person and GDP per person...Basically, the more social democratic a country, the more efficient it is.\nYou've jumped here between correlation and causation.

Wherever it's available, if you need/want a job, you go for it. And of course, it matters not to non-shareholding workers who they work for, they're still managed by the best managers that either sector can attract, and government just matches pay incentives that equal the private sector - there's zero difference for all operational staff. The only difference whatsoever is that private sector companies are owned privately, and public companies aren't. The head of a public business is under pressure to meet targets in order to justify themselves as worthy of the job rather than all the competition who want it instead, he is fighting for prestige and monetary gain. The head of a private business has more to gain but also more to lose - and the argument is that this, combined with the freedom to just set up whatever legal operations you want, is the superior model and the superior incentive.\nIn terms of game theory, the private owner takes the gamble that is less likely to pay off and more likely to end up in a bad loss, but when they win the gamble they can win big: high risk, high reward. This is exemplified by those stats about how new businesses usually fail within the first few years, but when they succeed the riches are demonstrably obscene (needlessly?). I believe that loss aversion is felt much more prominently to, and is less effective than an attraction to gain, correct me if I'm wrong. But the head of a public business has more of the latter, they are incentivised by prestige, less extreme but still very highly desirable. And if they fail, they don't lose any capital so there is FAR less loss aversion going on in the psychology of their incentive. It's not like they aren't incentivised to take risks, but there is less bredth and depth of risk available and incentive to take it. It's safer and slower in its innovation, so apply to that what you will - whether it be grandiose philosophies about nobility and greatness, or the realities of how the poor lose a great deal despite having nothing to do with it when it goes wrong on a big enough scale - as history and theories show that it does as it goes through its periodic cycles of boom and bust. Is higher risk positive for society? Yes. And no. What about optimal risk?\nCarleas wrote: You've jumped here between correlation and causation.

Again, I agree there are exceptions, there are cases where incentivizing risk is a bad thing and where we'd prefer the incentive profile of public funding.

My impression of it was that it wasn't adversarial at all, neither between the FCC and the businesses that would be covered by the regulations, nor between the businesses themselves. What the companies wanted, and what the FCC provided, was a set of common standards that kept people from running into each other or drowning out each others signals. Compare it to the drive-on-the-right rule in the US: every driver is made better off by the government enforcing that standard, because otherwise there is a coordination problem and driving becomes more dangerous and less efficient. A lot of law functions this way, and wealthy countries with large functional governments are able to establish these conventional rules more broadly, to make private players more efficient. But the bottleneck for these things isn't how much we're taxing, it's having stable and trusted institutions with the resources to put the conventions into place. We can't generate beneficial social institutions through higher taxes, even though as those institutions grow it will benefit society to increases taxes to support them.\nby Urwrongx1000 \u00bb Fri Feb 09, 2018 8:15 pm\nTaxation spawns from militarization and protection costs.\nEverybody pays for protection. If your tribe or country has no army, then another will invade, rape, kill, steal from you. Thus taxation is always a vital requirement throughout humanity. Taxation is the cost of security, first and foremost. Thus the \"morality\" of taxation is also the morality of protection, security, and defense. Can you defend yourself? Hypothetically, if an individual or society could defend itself (militarily) then it would NOT \"need\" taxation, as the cost of defense would be incurred upon the body itself. However most people cannot do this, cannot defend themselves, women and children for example.\nIn order to justify \"no taxes whatsoever\" you must also immediately justify no Defense. And that is anti-natural, unnatural. Anybody who leaves themselves completely defenseless, will soon have all their assets stripped away from them. Because humanity is predatory on the base level.

I'm confident it was an honest mistake since you typically exhibit such equitability in deliberation which is, btw, admirable.\nI feel zero-sum is correct that employers will not be philanthropic in their wage offerings (hence min wage laws in the first place) and with automation stealing jobs and the pervasion of college educations, supply of competent workers far-exceeds demand allowing employers further leverage. I suspect this development is heavily contributing to the opioid epidemic by engendering a sense of hopelessness in the lower tiers of the population.\nConcerning the morality of taxation, the main purpose, if not the sole purpose of taxation is the redistribution of wealth for the engineering of society.\nHere is G. Edward Griffin, the author of The Creature from Jekyll Island, saying what I just said: https://youtu.be/dsqGR31zoVA?t=17m59s\nWithout that redistributive mechanism, we'd devolve back to the bi-class society absent the of middle classes that existed at the dawn of the industrial revolution for the simple reason that money always flows uphill and without either a constant creation of money being funneled to the bottom or a redistribution from the top, the bottom would run dry. Wages alone are not enough to balance the tiers because employers hire employees for the purpose of making a profit. Employees, by definition, are compensated less than the productivity they contribute and therefore it's only a matter of time before all the money ascends to the top. In order to have a functioning society at all, taxation is absolutely necessary. And what is necessary to prevent suffering en masse is obviously moral.\nAs an example, I used to employ workers who I compensated $10/hr in exchange for their making $50/hr in revenue for me. So I net-benefited $40/hr from them and that doesn't count the $50/hr I made for myself as well. That's how money flows uphill and it's always the case because no employer would hire anyone unless they could generate a profit. So, therefore, the very act of employment necessitates redistributive taxation or money creation in order to fill the void generated by the profiteering of labor which is conveniently veiled by the guise of \"providing a service to the community\".\nHello, I see you're hungry and I'm willing to leverage your desperation to eat by offering you these peanuts in exchange for your mining some gold nuggets for me. Deal? We'll call it \"providing a service to the community\".

Timor-Leste is top, and for reference, the USA is about 1/3 of the way down. Whilst Norway only claims just over 1/2 of its GDP in tax, I don't think you can honestly make an argument that its \"significant levels of privatisation and market freedom\" aren't smaller relative to most other countries of the world. They literally are a model of Social Democratic (not Socialist) success. Anyone trying to put their success down to the \"significant levels of privatisation and market freedom\" would be somewhat ridiculous considering that even the most successful countries with lower degrees of Social Democracy output less value per person. If anything, we ought to be questioning just how much more successful could Nordic countries be if their economic model of Social Democracy was enhanced even further! I think if you believe these people who are trying to give you the impression that Nordic countries are successful because of \"significant levels of privatisation and market freedom\", you are being deceived.\nWhether or not the correlation is in fact causation, you have to remark at just how much the data appears to support the hypothesis that it is in fact a causal relationship - at first glance at least. It at least bears looking into! But are we? It seems like the Capitalist powers that be are trying very hard to stop this. It might very well be the case that there are other factors at work, or that any causation goes in a different direction.

If taxes on business owners are increased, that just pushes out the non-optimal competition - and each time this happens, all their business goes to the better performing businesses or to other areas of the market. Revenues go elsewhere, and whether the taxation goes into paying people to produce goods and services or straight back to businesses, the taxed money re-enters the private sector in proportion to how much the output of the private sector is still valued. Tax and tax some more, the revenues are still made, they just don't go so much to private businesses anymore - and when they do, only to the best who are able to stay in the game - they go more to public businesses instead. The incentives are still there for the private sector, or at least existing private businesses - newer ones and less successful ones don't have as much incentive to try and eat into the profits of already established and successful businesses because there aren't as much profits there to do so - just the same as if a market was already saturated with competition.\nAnd if the private sector can't afford more workers, this is exactly because the public sector now can. The workers just work for the public sector instead of the private sector.... there's no negative impact to job availability. The public sector gets the incentive to invest instead - and they're the same people who equally want to advance in the world, they just don't have the autonomy and the high risk high reward of doing it privately.\nCarleas wrote: by letting people choose for themselves what their risk is worth, we end up with the market settling around an optimal risk.\nOnly partly true. This assumes competence, and moreover - foresight. No matter how competent a risk taker is, they cannot see the future and their failure affects more and more people the more money that is risked. There is no such thing as both autonomy in risk, and consequences independent of others. All financial decisions affect others. Individuals (in)famously do not have as good an idea of how things are and how they will go as they often think - restricting risks in line with alternative opinions, especially the highest risks, is statistically optimal. The only thing that complete autonomy has in its favour is that even the wisdom of the crowd is flawed, and happy accidents happen. New frontiers can be broken much better with more autonomy, but at what cost? If you're speaking of \"optimal risk\", this involves restricting people.\nSerendipper wrote: That's an inaccurate assessment for failing to take into account that state minimum wages are often higher than federal, so it's not so clear that \"a lot of people willingly pay their workers more.\" According to this, 42.4% of workers make less than $15/hr.

Though, perhaps there is some ambiguity in Zero's qualifier that no one pays more \"in any great number\". I took that to be about how frequently people are paid more than the legal minimum (i.e., great number of people), rather than how much more than the minimum they are paid (i.e., a great number of dollars-per-hour), but the latter interpretation is also possible, in which case your point is well taken.\nPlease note that I don't think this is evidence that employers are being philanthropic; it is pure rational self-interest. Employers pay higher than the minimum wages because it makes business sense to do so. More money can attract more and better applicants to a position, and can incentivize workers to stay. Though I must concede that the minimum wage probably has an anchoring effect, so that employers are offering \"more money\" than the minimum, because the minimum is the alternative against which they're competing to recruit and retain workers.\nSerendipper wrote: Hello, I see you're hungry and I'm willing to leverage your desperation to eat by offering you these peanuts in exchange for your mining some gold nuggets for me.

Indeed, the correlation coefficient between per capita GDP and tax as a percent of GDP is actually negative (-.268). On the other hand, over all the countries that appear in the GDP list, the correlation is positive (.273). Not having much background in stats (I'm just using the Excel CORREL() function), I wasn't sure what to make of that. So I also looked at the Wikipedia list of countries by economic freedom, and found that it too had a negative (though less negative) correlation in the top 20 (-.037), and a similar (but slightly larger) correlation across the whole set (.278).\nAs I say, I claim no statistical expertize, so I can't say how statistically significant this is. I'm sure there are problems with the data set (and the economic freedom rankings are much less complete than either the tax rankings or the GDP rankings). Still, I'd say it's enough to reject the claim that there is a particularly clear correlation between wealth and taxation such that we should suspect the link is causal.\nSilhouette wrote: This doesn't look far enough....\nTo start, I agree with some of your points here, and of course you are correct that some level of business taxation is socially optimal, if only because we have a system that allows people to create legal fictions that insulate them from the full consequences of their actions (which is also so socially optimal, but a tax recoups the risk that society bears as a result). And competition from the public sector can also be good, and you are right that it can actually improve the competitiveness of private businesses up to a point.\nBut shifting from private to public labor is not a free lunch. Some public industries operate well, others don't, and I don't think it's the case in any industry that displacing all labor from private to public is a good thing. The incentive to optimize that the private sector has is valuable, and can't really be simulated in the public sector. There are public choice problems in public sector employment that can get out of hand without the discipline provided by a competitive market. While there may be no negative impact to job availability (I'm not sure that that's the case, given that the tax collecting and spending bureaucracy is effectively a middle man), there is likely to be a negative impact on productivity because public employers don't have the same incentive to maximize output.\nSilhouette wrote: This assumes competence, and moreover - foresight.\nI may have been implicitly assuming those, but they aren't necessary for a functioning market. The market is an evolutionary process. As long as businesses vary in their approach, the market will select for the approaches that work. Incompetent managers and those lacking foresight will lose their shirts, and ones that are competent, or that just luck into the right answer, will get more investors to fund their future attempts.\nI agree that some restriction is optimal (and here to it will vary by industry), but it's easy to underestimate the value of happy accidents. Like in all investing, the upside is worth more than the downside, because the downside is capped and the upside can be reinvested. If one unhappy accident loses everything and another happy accident doubles the investment, society is better off.\nby Silhouette \u00bb Tue Feb 13, 2018 12:18 am\nCarleas wrote: I did some quick comparisons between Wikipedia's list of countries by per capita GDP, and its list of countries by tax as a percent of GDP, and there isn't much correlation.\nWell in your first link (GDP/person) we can clearly see Norway coming in at 6th, Sweden in 16th, Denmark 20th and Finland 25th.\nThese are the top 2-5 in the tax/GDP stats in your second link - all rating in the top 25/187 in terms of GDP/person.\nSo whilst you might not be able to conclude that GDP/person relies on high taxation, you should be able to see that high taxation seems to coincide with significantly high GDP/person.\nI am getting a similar correlation figure of about 0.3, not sure why yours is closer to 0.27 (maybe it's because I corrected a couple differently spelled country names between the two lists to get the extra information), which doesn't look like a significant correlation, I agree, though a positive correlation nonetheless.\nHowever, if you remove just a few outliers, even including the Nordic Countries, this increases.\nI removed just the top and bottom 5 countries in GDP/person, and the top and bottom 5 countries in Tax/GDP and got a correlation of over 0.5, which is starting to get pretty significant. I believe this is the case because the competition with the Nordic Countries' in terms of GDP/person is due to countries either sitting on natural resources or being micro states with particular attractions to foreign investment. Norway and Denmark even fall into this category to an extent, though certainly the Middle East + the smaller countries do. This is why I removed them just to see what this did to the correlation, and even though there still remain some oddities in the data, the increased correlation is showing an even clearer link between taxation and output per person.\nI don't have time to look into whether higher taxation is better for more developed countries, and the Marxist theory is that the move towards Socialism naturally occurs after Capitalism, which I agree works well within less developed countries, so it would be interesting to see if this is the case - excluding outliers/exceptional cases that throw off the overall trend.\nby Serendipper \u00bb Tue Feb 13, 2018 12:45 pm\nCarleas wrote: Please note that I don't think this is evidence that employers are being philanthropic; it is pure rational self-interest.

You have something, someone else wants it, they threaten you with force if you do not give it to them, so you give it to them. It does not matter if you want to give it to them or not, that does not even appear as a question. Some people claim to actually want to give their tax moneys to the government, but I bet if the government stopped forcing them to give it and they were free to write a check to the government for whatever amount they wanted, they would either write an amount far less than their current tax bill, or no amount at all.\nNone of that has to do with the question of whether or not taxation is actually good or not, of course. In some cases, perhaps, theft can be a \"good\" thing. It would depend on how we define theft, I suppose. And also looking more deeply into the means and ends.\nTaxation is basically theft normalized. So is theft good if it becomes normalized and if it achieves ostensibly good ends?

        "raw_content": "India Energy Storage Alliance - Thinking of Buying an Electric Car? Indian Government has an Offer You Can't Refuse\nThinking of Buying an Electric Car? Indian Government has an Offer You Can't Refuse\nLocation: Entrepreneur India\nWe all want to get rid of petroleum products because of the pollution, it\u2019s our number one enemy. For the younger generation, today is a complete no. It's outdated and when we have something better way to go for a pollutant. However, in the current scenario, electric vehicles can be your best option. One of the biggest advantages of going the electric vehicle way is that you will make some great savings and contribute to a better environment.\nAnd, if you are thinking of buying an electric car, then it\u2019s time to rejoice because you may get a rebate of up to INR 2 lakh from the government on your new electric car.\nMajor Push to Promote E-vehicles :\nAccording to a TOI report, as part of an INR 9,400-crore package for electric and hybrid vehicles, the government may offer incentives of up to INR 2.5 lakh to those scrapping old petrol or diesel vehicles along with sops for investment to manufacture parts such as motors in the country. The incentives will benefit cab aggregators and bus fleet owners. As per the news, owners of electric cars, operating as taxis, are likely to get sops of INR 1.5 to 2.5 lakh for vehicles that cost up to INR 15 lakh. On the other hand, under the draft policy, the buyers of electric two-wheelers that cost up to INR 1.5 lakh will receive incentives of around INR 30,000.\nIt\u2019s Not An Easy Road:\nThe government\u2019s new plan will surely give a big boost to electric vehicles in India. In 2017, the Narendra Modi government set itself an ambitious target to allow only electric cars in India by 2030.\nThe then Minister of State with Independent Charge for Power, Coal, New and Renewable Energy, Piyush Goyal expressed that the government will help establish charging stations to start with and later through franchisee model, create jobs for lakhs of entrepreneurs to establish charging stations across the country.\nBut it seems there is no easy answer to whether or not India will go all-electric on the Indian roads by 2030.\nAccording to an OECD report (The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ), India is regarded as a country providing the least subsidies, compared to other major markets, to renewable energy in electric vehicle and that may hamper the government\u2019s target of achieving the all-electric target by 2030. The dream of going all electric can be realized by empowering companies that are building e-vehicles in India.\nAutomobile giants like Mahindra, Tata and Hyundai have already rolled out various projects to make electric cars in India. Now it would be interesting to see if government\u2019s latest move towards the adoption of e-vehicles will help achieve its long-awaited dream.\nSource- Entrepreneur India",

        "title": "Dietary Vitamin K2 May Reduce Prostate Cancer",
        "raw_content": "Edam cheese has more vitamin K2 than other cheeses. (Photo by Sifu Renka)\nVitamin K2 hasn't really made it into the mainstream yet, but a lot health blogs have caught up on its importance.\nOne explanation is that vitamin K2 fits poorly into the conventional view of what is healthy, and everything that the conventional view disapproves of, contrarian health bloggers embrace. The irony of vitamin K is that contrary to what one might expect, vitamin K1 just doesn't seem to have the same punch as vitamin K2.\nAnd the interesting difference between the two? The main dietary source of vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) in the Western world is green leafy vegetables, while the main sources of vitamin K2 (menaquinones) are meat and cheese.\nFor some people, advocating meat and cheese over green leafy vegetables is pure blasphemy, but when it comes to prostate cancer, it may not be such a bad idea. In this post, we'll take a look at a large study that found a reduced risk of prostate cancer in men who ate more vitamin K2 in their diet.\nThe EPIC study and dietary vitamin K intake\nThe European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) is the largest study of diet and disease to be undertaken. It has more than half a million participants, most of whom are 35-70 years old. The study begun many years ago and is still ongoing, with results being published every now and then.\nOne of the papers from last years looked at the incidence of prostate cancer in the Heidelberg cohort of the EPIC study (link). The Heidelberg cohort included almost 12,000 men aged 40-65 years from Heidelberg, Germany. Their dietary intake of phylloquinone and menaquinones was assessed by using a food-frequency questionnaire and a list of the vitamin K content of ~2000 commonly consumed foods.\nThe median daily intakes of phylloquinone and menaquinones were 93.6 micrograms and 34.7 micrograms, respectively. Menaquinone-4 (MK-4) accounted for 14.4 mcg of total menaquinones, while menaquinone-7 (MK-7) accounted for only 0.8 mcg. The main dietary menaquinones in terms of quantity appear to be MK-4 and MK-9.\nVegetables, especially green leafy vegetables, were the main source of vitamin K1. In the case of vitamin K2, meat products were the main source of MK-4 and dairy products the main source of higher menaquinones. Since fermented dairy products contain only a very small amount of MK-7, and the only food that has a lot of it is natto, it's not surprising MK-7 intake was so low among participants. Nonetheless, even small amounts may be enough to see benefits.\nPerhaps unsurprisingly, those who consumed more vitamin K appeared to be healthier in general:\nSubjects in the upper quartiles of phylloquinone and menaquinones had a lower body mass index, were more likely to have a university degree, and were more likely to practice vigorous physical activity >2 h/wk than were subjects in the lower intake quartiles.\nThis was despite the fact that as the intake of vitamin K increased, so did energy intake. Smoking status, however, was not significantly different between quartiles of vitamin K intake. These factors, along with things like calcium intake and family history of prostate cancer were adjusted for in the multivariate analysis.\nDietary intake of vitamin K1 & K2 and prostate cancer\nThe analysis showed that dietary intake of phylloquinone was not associated with the incidence of prostate cancer. In other words, those who ate more vitamin K1 had just as much prostate cancer as the ones who ate less vitamin K1.\nMenaquinone intake, on the other hand, was inversely related to the risk of prostate cancer after excluding cases who were diagnosed within the first two years of follow-up. When the authors looked at only advanced cases of prostate cancer, the inverse relationship was even clearer. Thus, in contrast to vitamin K1, those who ate more vitamin K2 had less incidences of advanced prostate cancer.\nThe food source of vitamin K2 was also important. Only menaquinones from dairy products were associated with a significantly lower risk of advanced prostate cancer, while those from meat products were not. Accordingly, the risk of advanced prostate cancer was lower in those who consumed more MK-5\u20139 but not in those who consumed more MK-4. In contrast, menaquinone intake from meat products were associated with a lower risk of all cases of prostate cancer, but this difference was not statistically significant.\nIf one were to interpret these numbers literally, then, it would seem that an increased intake of MK-4 (from meat sources) may reduce the risk of prostate cancer in general, while an increased intake of higher menaquinones (from dairy sources) reduces the risk of advanced prostate cancer.\nSo why would vitamin K2 reduce advanced prostate cancer but not total prostate cancer? The authors offers a possible explanation:\nOur findings of stronger associations of vitamin K intake with advanced than with total prostate cancer could be a hint that menaquinones play a role in tumor promotion and progression rather than in tumor initiation.\nIn other words, vitamin K2 may not decrease your odds of getting prostate cancer, but if you do get it, menaquinones decrease the odds of the cancer reaching an advanced stage. This makes sense, given that menaquinones have been shown to have an antiproliferative effect on several cancer lines in vitro.\nAn increased intake of menaquinones (vitamin K2) but not phylloquinone (vitamin K1) is associated with a reduced risk of advanced prostate cancer. Based on this study, the main sources of vitamin K2 in the Western diet are meat and dairy products.\nWhen comparing different food sources of vitamin K2, dairy products were more strongly associated with a reduced risk of advanced prostate cancer than meat products. Accordingly, higher menaquinones (MK-5\u20139), which are found mostly in dairy products, were more strongly inversely associated with prostate cancer than MK-4, which is found mainly in meat.\nFor more information on diet and cancer, see these posts:\nRed Meat and Mortality: A Closer Look at the Evidence\nTunnisteet: cancer",

        "title": "Gil Shaham and Sejong Soloists Team Up for High-Spirited Recording of Two Haydn Violin Concertos and Mendelssohn\u2019s <i>Octet for Strings</i>",
        "raw_content": "New CD on Shaham\u2019s Canary Classics Label\nOffering an ebullient counterbalance to the often shadowy intensity of many of the works Gil Shaham is performing this season in his ongoing \u201cConcertos of the 1930s\u201d project, the celebrated violinist presents a new recording of Haydn\u2019s Violin Concerto No. 1 in C major and Violin Concerto No. 4 in G major and Mendelssohn\u2019s Octet. Shaham is joined by the Sejong Soloists on the new CD, due for release on March 30 on his own label, Canary Classics.\nFranz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) died in the same year that Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) was born; the new recording grew out of the centenary concerts that Shaham and Sejong gave in 2009. Haydn was no doubt an influence on Mendelssohn\u2019s music, and the younger composer held the earlier master in the highest esteem. The works featured on the new album share a buoyant enthusiasm reflective of both composers\u2019 youth: Mendelssohn was just a teenager when the debut of his Octet in 1825 catapulted him to fame; Haydn wrote the two concertos heard on this disc during the 1760s, when he was in his 30s and still in his self-proclaimed \u201cextended youthful period.\u201d\nGil Shaham comments on the recording of Mendelssohn\u2019s Octet: \u201cDocuments from the time show Mendelssohn thought of this piece as a \u2018brand new type of music\u2019 \u2013 revolutionary music from a 16-year-old who was out to prove himself and change the musical world. Although we stuck almost exclusively with Mendelssohn\u2019s final revised version of the Octet, looking at the original was inspiring. The faster tempo markings and the attention to staccato articulation in Mendelssohn\u2019s own handwriting persuaded us to try to conjure up a magical spirit world conveyed in Shakespeare\u2019s A Midsummer\u2019s Night Dream and Goethe\u2019s Faust, both works that greatly fired the young composer\u2019s imagination.\u201d\nHaydn\u2019s Concerto in C major was written for the violinist Alois Luigi Tomasini, whose star as a soloist was rising throughout Central Europe and who had recently begun his tenure as concert-master of the Esterhazy Orchestra, for whom Haydn would write so many of his works during his decades of service to the Esterhazy family in Eisenstadt. The C major presents greater technical challenges than the G major concerto, although as Stephen Somary explains in the album\u2019s liner notes: \u201cit allows the composer to focus [in the G major] on rhythmically driven and soaring melodic lines, as well as beautiful long phrases, especially in the slow second movement.\u201d\nGil Shaham and Sejong\u2019s association extends back more than ten years. Shaham says that performing the Mendelssohn Octet with Sejong is \u201clike playing basketball with seven Michael Jordans. It was a privilege for me, sitting there with my graying hair, to try and keep up with their artistry.\" Sejong is renowned for its cohesiveness and refreshing musical style, and together with Shaham the ensemble brings to this repertoire a sense of intimacy, compelling intensity and engagement. (Shaham, incidentally, studied at Juilliard with renowned violin professor Hyo Kang, Sejong\u2019s Artistic Director.)\nShaham and Sejong have toured the featured repertoire extensively, and as the concert review in the Santa Barbara Independent noted: \u201cShaham manages to combine extraordinary virtuosity with uncommon restraint ... The majestic sweep of the augmented quartet form was given full rein ... Two powerful forces in the service of a higher cause.\u201d\nShaham\u2019s previous recording for Canary Classics was a tribute to Spanish violinist and composer Pablo de Sarasate in his centenary year. In its December issue, BBC Music magazine noted: \u201cWith his pure tone, immaculately clear delivery and refusal to over-indulge, Shaham proves to be an almost ideal interpreter of this repertory. There\u2019s a palpable sense of excitement in the live recordings as he surmounts all the technical hurdles of the Carmen Fantasy and Zigeunerweisen with outrageous ease.\u201d Gramophone\u2019s similarly enthusiastic review followed in January: \u201cBoth violinists [Shaham and Adele Anthony] have a real feeling for the music \u2013 its sometimes outrageous showmanship, which Shaham is particularly good at portraying, combined with easy, graceful, aristocratic manners.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "The Rehabilitation Counseling Program (RCP) at San Diego State University (SDSU) is fully accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP)through the 2021/2022 academic year.During its most recent reaccreditation review in 2014, the RCP received a maximum of eight years reaccreditation. U.S. News and World Report ranks the RCP in the top ten rehabilitation counseling programs in the United States. among all rehabilitation counseling programs in the United States.\nClick on the image below to check out our infographic in full size!\nThe Department of Administration, Rehabilitation and Postsecondary Education (ARPE) prepares students to be effective practitioners, administrators, and leaders in the field of Rehabilitation. The degree has been accredited by the Commission on Rehabilitation Education since 1975.\nStudents in the SDSU RCP can complete the Masters in Rehabilitation Counseling degree through both on-campus and distance options. Both options are 60 units and typically take two and half to three years to complete. The on-campus program offers instruction at the SDSU main campus, with classes offered in the Education and Business Administration building. Classes are held Monday through Thursday from either 4 pm to 6:40 pm or 7:00 pm to 9:40 during the Fall and Spring semesters. Most students in the on-campus program reside in the San Diego area but the on-campus program does include out of state and international students.\nThe RCP's distance option is entirely taken on-line with instructional support provided by the SDSU Interwork Institute's Center for Distance Learning (II-CDL). The program is only available to students living outside of the greater San Diego area, and is taken by students throughout California, as well as other states and countries. The distance program is referred to as CDER (Consortium for Distance Education in Rehabilitation). Historically the distance program was focused on providing instruction to students employed by the California Department of Rehabilitation or other State Vocational Rehabilitation agencies (for background on the CDER program, click the link to visit the distance program introduction). Today, CDER includes meeting the needs of all potential students, whether they are new to the rehabilitation counseling profession, or have experience in State Vocational Rehabilitation or other agencies that employ rehabilitation counselors/professionals. Many students come to the program with life experiences, such as living and working with their own disabilities and/or relationships with family members or friends with disabilities. Many bring diverse experiences in the human services fields.\nWhat is Rehabilitation Counseling?\nRehabilitation empowers people to make informed choices, build viable careers, and live more independently in the community. The primary focus of career preparation in rehabilitation is developing counseling skills, acquiring knowledge of disabilities and demonstrating respect and sensitivity for people with disabilities. Knowledge and practice of these principles, combined with a solid foundation of specialized education in the rehabilitation field, enable dedicated rehabilitation professionals to partner with individuals with disabilities to obtain gainful employment, pursue meaningful careers, and live independently.\nThe Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC) presents The Art of Rehabilitation Counseling, a short video exploring the unique qualifications and exceptional abilities of rehabilitation counselors. Rehabilitation counselors also share their stories of success working to improve the lives of individuals with disabilities. CRCC also promotes the profession through an advertising flyer demonstrating the value of rehabilitation counseling. Click the link to view the flyer in PDF.\nConcentration in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling\nThe Clinical Concentration provides students with all required coursework for the LPCC as well as the Advanced Certificate in Psychiatric Rehabilitation (PsyR). All Clinical Concentration students also complete all requirements for the PsyR Certificate. Upon graduation, students submit Form B from the BBS's LPCC application to the Graduate Division, who then verifies completion of all requirements for the Clinical Concentration and submits the form to the BBS. The BBS then sends the graduate an intern number. The graduate may begin accruing 3,000 supervised internship hours once the intern number is received. It is the responsibility of the student/graduate to locate appropriate employment and a licensed supervisor to complete the required hours for licensure. Students should consider carefully whether the LPCC is critical to their careers due to the internship and exam requirements. The PsyR Certificate may be a better option for most students.\nStudents enrolled in the MS in Rehabilitation Counseling have several options for specializing in specific areas of study, including the following: Cognitive Disabilities, Rehabilitation Technology, Supported Employment and Transition Services, and Psychiatric Rehabilitation. By applying for these areas, students can earn a post-baccalaureate certificate concurrently with the MS degree. Students may consult with their faculty advisor to customize a program of study if there are other areas of interest that are not formally available.",

        "raw_content": "I have read many books on the subject of end times, and one common factor seems to be the fact that most authors are adamant that they are right and everyone saying something different is wrong! I make no such claims here. I simply offer what I believe to be a reasonable understanding of the relevant Bible passages in the light of world events, and ask the reader to consider it prayerfully and thoughtfully.\nIt is in two main sections. The first, written originally when this page was created in July 2016, is intended to be updated with current world events as they develop, and therefore open to change at any time. The second section considers what the Bible teaches on the subject, largely unrelated to current events, and therefore less likely to be changed (apart from some tweaking here and there as improvements occur to me!).\nSome Key Scriptures\nIs there more than one 'second coming'?\nList of Future Events\nPerhaps, for the sake of anyone reading this who is unfamiliar with what the Bible teaches, I should set out a basic outline.\nWhen Jesus ascended into Heaven, the angels said He would return in the same way that He went (Acts 1:11). Those who \u2018sleep in Jesus\u2019 will be resurrected and along with the living will meet Him in the clouds (1 Thess 4:14\u201317).\nJesus described events that would take place just prior to His return (Luke 21:28). Therefore at some point in history there will be a generation of people who see these things that herald His near return.\nCenturies before Jesus was born, King Nebuchadnezzar had a dream interpreted by Daniel, who said it was an overview of the history of the world, given to him by God (Dan 2:31\u201345). It was a huge image made of different materials, with a rock smashing into its feet and destroying it. Most books I have read accept the following as a valid interpretation:\nHead of Gold (Empire of Babylon)\nChest & Arms of silver (Empire of Media and Persia)\nBelly and thighs of bronze (Empire of Greece - Alexander the Great)\nLegs of iron (Empire of Rome)\nFeet/toes of iron & clay (the Empire ruling at the time of the return of Jesus)\nRock (Jesus) uncut from a mountain destroys the image by striking it on the feet.\nSo the prophecy of successive, major, world empires, largely ruling over the same physical territory with some variation in the border here and there, can be seen quite clearly in world history up to the feet and toes of iron and clay, the identity of which has been subject to much discussion and argument. At first glance it may appear that the prophecy has broken down, since, after the fall of the Roman Empire there has been no world-dominating power ruling over the territory. However, a comment by Jesus about the times of the Gentiles (Luke 21:24) and by Paul regarding a period while the fullness of the Gentiles comes in (Rom 11:25) may be indicative of this extended break in prophecy primarily directed at Israel. While there have been attempts in the intervening years to establish some kind of empire involving the nations included in this territory, the latest being the Third Reich toward the middle of the last century, none have succeeded.\nHere is a quick overview, as I was taught as a boy in the 1950\u2019s by my parents, grandparents and church, and after a lifetime of reading the Bible and other books on the subject and observing world events I see no reason to question it: Jesus will return to take away from the earth those who believe and follow Him, both dead and alive. In a major world empire ruled by ten people, a highly intelligent, charismatic man called Antichrist will arise to become the overall dictator.* He will make a seven-year treaty with Israel, who will rebuild their temple and recommence the animal sacrifices. The seven year period called the Tribulation will begin at this moment, when God\u2019s wrath on rebellious mankind will increasingly be poured out. After 3\u00bd years Antichrist will break the treaty and attack Israel with his army, entering the temple and calling himself God. At the end of the seven years, Jesus will return with all His saints, Israel will recognise Him as their Messiah, the armies of Antichrist will be defeated and Satan will be locked up for the 1,000 year reign of Christ on earth. After this he will be released for a short time, giving the world population the choice of choosing him over Jesus, before the final judgement when all the living and the dead will be assessed and assigned either to Heaven or Hell, depending on what they did with Jesus. There is much more than this, of course, but that is covered in the second section.\n* Since writing this I have come across Dr Michael Youssef, whose writings appear to be remarkably similar to my own understanding of scripture. See here for the first of a series of blogs, dated June 10th 2016 in which amongst other things he points out the many similarities between the Antichrist of the Bible and the expected Mahdi of Islam. For the follow-up blogs dated June 21st, June 29th and July 4th 2016 see here. I have believed for a long time that Antichrist and Mahdi are one and the same.\nEver since the proposal for, and establishment of, the Common Market after WWII, later evolving into the European Union, there has been speculation whether this could be the beginning of the feet and toes of Nebuchadnezzar\u2019s image: the major empire ultimately to be ruled over by Antichrist. The furore over the UK referendum in June 2016 to decide their continued membership of the EU probably brought this to the forefront of some people\u2019s minds, with \u2018Intercessors for Britain\u2019 and David Hathaway amongst others, stating that the EU was evolving into the fulfilment of this prophecy. However, one criticism of this idea is that there are far more than ten nations involved in the EU, while there are ten nations prophesied for this confederation, as shown by the ten toes of the image. So we\u2019ll look at this.\nThere are three key Bible prophecies:\nDan 2:31\u201345\nDan 7:7\u201311, 19\u201326\nRev 12:3; 13:1\u20138; 17:1\u201318.\nWhile the first Daniel passage talks about feet and toes, the rest refer to a beast with seven heads and ten horns. Because we are told the ten horns represent ten kings, it has been assumed this means a confederation of ten nations; but this is not what it says!\nAccording to Dan 7:24 these ten kings arise from one kingdom. So the number ten does not relate to the number of nations involved in the kingdom, but simply the number of rulers. At the present time the EU has five presidents; but of course it is still in the process of evolution. According to secular, on-line, news source the Express, dated 29 June,* some of those in power\n\u201csee the Brexit vote as an opportunity to push ahead with the European elite\u2019s long-cherished dream of creating a United States of Europe.\u201d\nWere this to happen there is no reason why the five should not morph into ten! I do not profess to be an expert in world history, but I am unaware of any time when there has been a single kingdom ruled by multiple kings/presidents. However, the EU could be just around the corner from being exactly that. So we are possibly on the cusp of seeing a replica of this prophecy for the first time in world history.\n* See also the Sun dated 28 June and the Mail dated 27 June\nThe beast has seven heads, we are told. What do these represent? Rev 17:9 tells us they are seven mountains. In the Bible mountains represent nations. For example, Babylonia is called a mountain in Jer 51:24\u201325. But there are more than seven nations in Europe, so how does that work? A living beast is never just a head, though: it must also have a body. In 1 Cor 12:12\u201327 the Church is called a body, with the people being different parts. Likewise, the seven heads of the beast could represent the seven most dominant nations, with the other participating nations being its body.\nPeople have been saying \u2018the end is nigh\u2019 for the past 2,000 years, we are told, so why should now be any different? The Bible says,\n2 Peter 3:3\u20134, 8 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, \"Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.\" But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.\nIn God\u2019s eyes it is just like a mere couple of days since the New Testament prophecies were given,* and we are presently in a unique set of circumstances.\nFor the first time since their exile during the Roman Empire, the people of Israel are back in their own land. Jesus said Jerusalem would be \u2018trampled by the Gentiles\u2019 until the times of the Gentiles were fulfilled (Luke 21:24). There is still one part of Jerusalem not fully under the control of Israel, though. The Temple Mount still bears the Islamic Mosque. Therefore the times of the Gentiles are not yet ended, but are surely drawing rapidly to a close.\nThe developments over the past decade or so in China, Russia, North Korea, the Middle East, Europe and IS/Daesh bring these people groups very close to the relevant prophecies for them at the time of the end.*\nIran has recently * claimed they have 100,000 missiles in Lebanon and large numbers of long range missiles in Iran, all aimed at Israel; there are dozens of terror tunnels and masses of missiles in Gaza preparing for a major conflict. Their declared plan is to aim a simultaneous barrage at Israel that will overwhelm their \u2018Iron Dome\u2019 defence system and destroy the nation \u2018at a stroke\u2019.**\nThe European Parliament building in Strasbourg is designed as close as it possibly could be to the famous 1563 painting of Babel by Brueghel, as can be seen on page 11 of the PDF by Intercessors for Britain; and the statues and depiction on the 2 Euro coin of the rape of Europa are a clear reflection of Rev 17:7.* While detractors give an alternative explanation of the reason for the building\u2019s design, it stretches credulity beyond the limit to believe it is mere coincidence that this key EU building copies the iconic depiction of arguably mankind\u2019s greatest, unified rebellion against God since the flood.\nLuke 21:26 men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth\u2026 According to the Global Peace Index 2016 there has been a declining trend of world peace during the past decade; and the number of deaths from terrorism has risen dramatically since 2011 from under 10,000 to over 30,000 per year. With random individuals turning guns on innocent bystanders indiscriminately in countries where they are freely available, using ordinary vehicles as weapons to kill and maim, and attempting mass murder by suicide bombings,* there is little governments can do to prevent such attacks, and the atmosphere of fear is starting to ratchet upwards.\n* And no more than 2\u00bd - 3 days since most of the Old Testament ones! See here for Dr Michael Youssef\u2019s belief that we are very close to the fruition of end-time prophecy.\n* e.g. Rev 16:12 and Rev 9:14\u201316 could refer to a gigantic army from some of these regions.\n* This was written in July 2016\n** It would be politically impossible for Israel to remove the mosque sitting on Temple Mount, but this could easily do it for them and end the \u2018Times of the Gentiles\u2019.\n* Why on Earth would anyone want to depict such an event?\n* Those seeking their own death in the process of murdering others believe this guarantees them a privileged life after death. The Bible says no murderer has eternal life abiding in him (1 John 3:15) and will be cut off from God for eternity (Rev 21:8).\nTaking all this into account, I believe the most likely eventuality is that the EU is soon to become the United States of Europe, in preparation for the emergence of the prophesied, Satan-inspired dictator to become its President and initiate the events described in the second section on this page.\nAt the present time the UK has a new Prime Minister, who voted to \u2018Remain\u2019 in the referendum, but who has appointed \u2018Brexiters\u2019 to the key positions in the exit negotiations. I foresee two alternative possibilities.\nEven though there is a minority of people, who voted to remain, now clamouring for Parliament to ignore the referendum vote and keep the UK in Europe, it is inconceivable that they could or would do this at the present time. It is hardly viable to spend millions of pounds in asking the population what they want if their response is then going to be ignored! Teresa May, the Prime Minister, has said that Brexit means Brexit and has appointed two keen Brexit supporters to the Government positions that will deal with the negotiations.\nHowever, there are very powerful forces behind the EU project, and I do not believe they will let a little thing like UK democracy stand in their way. For one thing, the EU economy is in a dire position according to the IMF, and they need Britain to help bale them out.\nTeresa May has said she will not trigger Article 50 to commence the leave process for some time - probably until 2017: the longer this is delayed, the less likely it is that it will ever happen! In my view the most likely outcome is that during negotiations the heads of the EU will suddenly find they can offer the significant concessions to the UK that they refused to give Prime Minister Cameron before the start of the referendum campaign. After a few weeks or perhaps months of negotiations, there will be irresistible momentum for a second referendum on the basis that the new deal would be best for the country and one that most people would want, since they did not realise the first time around the full implications of leaving. With previous leading \u2018Brexiters\u2019 having a change of heart, the vote will be to Remain and the stage will be set for the United States of Europe to be finally established. At the time of writing everything appears to be working toward the UK leaving the EU, so my hope is that it really will do so; but it\u2019s not over until it\u2019s over, and it\u2019s not over!\nOn the other hand, it is possible that the UK Brexiters will have sufficient strength of character to withstand EU pressure, and Britain will genuinely leave the EU. In this case the rest of the EU will push forward with full integration into the United States of Europe in order to prevent any other countries from doing the same as the UK, and it will have been the grace of God that has enabled us to escape! It was Britain standing against the Third Reich during the Second World War that enabled Europe to have its freedom; who knows if history will repeat itself yet again and the EU be given one last chance to choose democracy and move away from full political union, and by so doing stave off the prophesied end time events?\nThe day after the massive defeat in parliament for the government\u2019s Brexit deal.\nAt the end of the section above on \u2018Remain\u2019, I said \u201cIt\u2019s not over until it\u2019s over, and it\u2019s not over.\u201d I also assumed the EU leaders would offer a deal the UK could not refuse. In that I was obviously wrong: they took a different approach and ensured Teresa May, the UK Prime Minister, was forced into a deal that most people would not accept!\nI will not categorically say that the EU is the foundation for antichrist\u2019s kingdom,* but if it is, then there are extremely powerful forces determined to keep it intact and only a miracle can extract the UK. If it is not, then, of course, it is simply a matter of personal preference regarding whether one wishes to be ruled by the EU or by the UK government.\n* Although, for the reasons stated on this page, I sincerely believe it is!\nAfter watching around two hours of the debate in parliament until just a few minutes before the vote last night, I was struck by two things. [1] Most speakers I heard, some of whom voted \u2018Remain\u2019 in the referendum, were adamant that the democratic vote of the people in 2016 should be honoured and we must leave the EU. [2] From the different and, in some cases, opposite reasons given for rejecting the deal on the table, it seemed apparent to me that it will be impossible to reach any kind of deal that will be acceptable to enough MP's to get it through parliament.\nThis leaves just two options: we either leave with no deal or we remain in the EU. There were so many voices in parliament making dire predictions about disaster should we leave with no deal, I fail to see how this could ever get a majority vote. This leaves \u2018Remain\u2019; but if the MP\u2019s settle on that without a second referendum, there would be massive unrest throughout the country at them refusing to accept the will of the people, when they agreed to give them the choice in the first place.\nIf they choose to have a second referendum, which would require Article 50 being extended beyond its present deadline, this would also create massive protest at the undemocratic idea of forcing a second vote because they didn\u2019t accept the first one.\nSo what will happen? I have no idea because I am not a prophet! It\u2019s a case of \u2018watch this space\u2019. I am aware there are Christians who stand on opposite sides of the matter, and while I have made my position very clear on this page, I would want to stand with all believers in praying that God will intervene in our nation to ensure it does not go further away from Him that it already has done, that it will make no alliances that will bring it into conflict with His will, and that there might be yet one more move of His Spirit * across this nation to set its people free from the lies of the enemy and into the delights of a close, intimate relationship with Him.\n* And we have had several over the centuries.\nWe\u2019ll begin with a brief list of key scriptures, and then look in rather more detail at the events. This is more in the format of brief notes rather than a full description and the Bible passages quoted need to be read fully. If you do not have a Bible to hand, clicking on the reference will open the Biblia.com web site at that passage in a separate window.\nThe Rapture:\nThis is the taking away from the earth of those believing in and following after Jesus Christ.\nMatt 24:37 \u2013 25:13\nThe return of Jesus is spoken of in two different ways, using two different Greek words.*\n1 Thess 4: 14 \u2013 5:6 (Coming: parousia (presence))\n2 Thess 2: 1\u201312 (Coming: parousia (presence))\nTitus 2:13 (Appearing/Brightness: epipheneia (manifestation))\n2 Tim 4:8 (Appearing/Brightness: epipheneia (manifestation))\nThere are also two different judgements:\nNote: the Judgement seat, bema (tribunal), of Christ (Rom 14:10) is different to the Great White Throne, thronos (throne) in Rev 20:11.) The judgement seat is for believers, whose works are judged and rewarded immediately after the rapture. The Great White Throne follows the final resurrection after the millennium (see later) and determines the eternal destiny of all mankind.\n* More on this later in Is there more than one 'second coming'?.\nThe Tribulation:\nThe seven year period of God\u2019s wrath increasingly being poured out on the earth, during the reign of Antichrist.\nDan. 9:21\u201327\nRev. 4:1 \u2013 18:24\nArmageddon, The Millennium and Eternity:\nArmageddon is the battle between the armies of Antichrist and those of Jesus, at Megiddo in the Jezreel Valley. The Millenium is the 1,000 year reign of Jesus Christ on earth. We are told very little about the Eternity that follows the final battle after the Millennium and the Great White Throne judgement.\nZech.12:1\u201314; 14:1\u201315\nRev. 19:1 \u2013 22:21\nIs. 65:17\u201325\nThere is much debate around the taking away of the Church from the earth - the rapture - whether it takes place before, during or after the tribulation. It is my belief it comes first, for the following reasons.\nWhen Jesus leaves Heaven to come to Earth for the battle of Armeggedon, His armies come from Heaven with Him:\nRev 19:14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.\nIf there is no pre\u2013tribulation rapture, these armies cannot include those who will be raptured when He comes in the clouds and the dead are raised first, because the armies come from Heaven, while the raptured ones come from the Earth:\n1 Thess 4:16\u201317 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.\nHowever, those in the armies with Him are called 'chosen' and 'faithful':\nRev 17:14 These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.\"\nSurely 'chosen' and 'faithful' are descriptions of saints, not angels? This being the case, then the saints must be in Heaven before Jesus leaves in Rev 19. Could it be those who have died and are in Heaven now, though? I think there is a problem here. At the present time those who have died have left their dead bodies buried on Earth, while their spirits and souls are in Heaven. It is an artificial and temporary situation and at the resurrection souls and spirits are restored to the revived and changed physical bodies for eternity.\nThere is no hint of this taking place in Rev 19, which if there is no pre-tribulation rapture would mean spirits and souls leaving Heaven on horses, then leaving them to be reunited with their bodies, then raptured back up to the clouds to get back on the horses again! It makes more sense to me that the resurrected and raptured saints are taken to Heaven and assembled into armies at the right moment for the battle of Rev 19. Bearing this in mind, let us look at reasons to believe the rapture comes before the tribulation.\n1. God delivers us from the wrath to come. There is no example in the Bible of God pouring His wrath on those who love and serve Him. Many Christians have suffered, and will suffer, persecution, but never God's wrath.\nRom 5:9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.\nCol 3:6 Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience\n1 Thess 5:9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ\nGod sends four things called His wrath in the Old Testament on the unrighteous \u2013 war, famine, plague and wild beasts. E.g:\nEzek 5:13, 17 'Thus shall My anger be spent, and I will cause My fury to rest upon them, and I will be avenged; and they shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken it in My zeal, when I have spent My fury upon them\u2026 So I will send against you famine and wild beasts, and they will bereave you. Pestilence and blood shall pass through you, and I will bring the sword against you. I, the LORD, have spoken.' \"\nEzek 14:21 For thus says the Lord GOD: \"How much more it shall be when I send My four severe judgments on Jerusalem\u2014the sword and famine and wild beasts and pestilence\u2014to cut off man and beast from it?\nThe opening of the first four seals (Rev. 6:1\u20138), the beginning of the seven year tribulation, brings those same four disasters: war, famine, plague and wild beasts:\nRev 6:8 I looked up and saw a horse whose colour was pale green. Its rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave. These two were given authority over one\u2013fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword and famine and disease and wild animals.\nAt the opening of the sixth seal, which is not very far into the last seven years, we are told that what is happening is God's wrath:\nRev 6:16\u201317 and said to the mountains and rocks, \"Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?\"\nSince these events are called God's wrath, which comes in increasing intensity through the progression of the seals, the trumpets and the bowls during the tribulation, and He doesn't pour His wrath on His saints, they must be raptured before it happens.\n2. When God poured out His wrath at the flood, He had Noah in a place of safety so he would not suffer it. This is a 'type' of the rapture. Matt. 24:38\u201340 says it will be like the days of Noah \u2013 he entered the ark and then the flood came.\n3. When God poured His wrath on Sodom and Gomorrah, He had Lot in a place of safety: another 'type' of the rapture. Luke 17:26\u201328 confirms Noah and Lot as rapture 'types'.\n4. My understanding of 2 Thess 2:1\u201312 is that the Thessalonians were worried they had missed the rapture and were now experiencing the 'Day of the Lord' (a phrase which always refers to the 'day' of judgement \u2013 of God's wrath being poured out on those who had rejected Him). So Paul says it cannot be the case because before that there has to be [a] the apostasy * and [b] the rise of Antichrist.\n2 Thess 2:6\u20137 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.\nI know of nothing in the New Testament that could possibly restrain evil and hold the Antichrist back from appearing that will also be removed, other than the Spirit\u2013filled Church. Jesus said:\nMatt 5:13\u201314 You are the salt of the earth\u2026 You are the light of the world.\nSalt holds back badness and decay; light holds back darkness. This confirms for me that Antichrist cannot emerge until the Spirit\u2013filled Church is raptured.\nWith regard to the apostasy, which is a turning away from God, there cannot be a vacuum. So turning away from God always results in turning to something else. I believe this to be the rise of Islam, which is presently spreading through the world significantly. The Koran says that God has not taken to Himself a son, thus denying both the Father and the Son.\n1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. *\n* In 2 Thess 2:3 the Greek word is apostasia, translated as the falling away, the rebellion, or a revolt, in different translations of the New Testament.\n* So Islam must be the religion of Antichrist. While many would claim the Allah of the Koran is the same as the God of the Bible, He cannot simultaneously be two very different things: He cannot at the same time be the Father of Jesus and not be the Father of Jesus. For this and other reasons I suggest that Islam is a deception, and while many - probably most - Moslems are peace-loving, kind and generous, it can be seen quite clearly across the world that wherever Islam has full political power it results in repression for those not of that faith. And in its extreme form it results in violence of the worse kind against those refusing to accept it.\n5. The ten virgins (Matt. 25). They are identical in every way, including the fact that they all have oil, which throughout the Bible is a symbol of the Holy Spirit. However the foolish ones have less oil than the wise at the important moment, and this results in them missing the bridegroom. I believe this teaches the rapture of those who are ready; and the religious, who have been touched by the Holy Spirit in some way but not fully given their lives to Him, are left behind. These are those people who, realising their mistake, turn fully to Christ (the foolish virgins did get the additional oil in the parable \u2013 it was just too late) and are the saints we read of in Revelation persecuted by Antichrist.\nImmediately following 'as in the days of Noah' (Matt 24:37), Jesus says:\nMatt 24:40\u201342 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.\nPerhaps this is another 'version' of the ten virgins.\n6. I believe John is a 'type' of the rapture of the Church:\nRev 4:1\u20132 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, \"Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.\" Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.\n7. Paul says we can be comforted by the thought of Jesus\u2019s return (1 Thess. 4:18); but how could the idea of going through the tribulation bring comfort? Jesus said:\n\u201cWatch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass\u201d Luke 21:36\nPerhaps before continuing I should make a mention of Preterism, having come across it a couple of times in the past year or so, although the theory is so ludicrous it does not warrant much space.* It is the notion that most, or all, of end time prophecy has already been fulfilled - generally at the time the Jewish temple was destroyed in 70AD. The fact that many prophecies quite clearly have not been fulfilled, some of which are included on this page, is evidence enough. Here are three examples, although there are many more: Jesus has not returned to stand on the Mount of Olives; all of Israel has not yet turned to Him as their Messiah; the Antichrist and his kingdom has never been seen.\n* There is a long critique of the idea here if you wish to look at it in detail.\nEarlier I pointed out two different Greek words used regarding Jesus's return. I believe these relate to two different events or stages. Jesus's coming/ presence (parousia)* in the clouds is not the second coming as such, but a preliminary or first stage to it as He does not actually come to the Earth in the Thessalonian passages where it is taught. This is when He raptures the spirit-filled Church and takes them plus the resurrected ones to Heaven to prepare them for the great battle. His manifestation/ appearing/ brightness (epipheneia)** is when He comes to Earth with his angels and saints. This revealing of Christ results in Israel's eyes being opened and their salvation; He stands on Mount Olivet, destroys Antichrist's army at Armageddon, and brings in the Millennium Kingdom.***\n* 1 Thess 4: 14 \u2013 5:6; 2 Thess 2: 1\u201312\n** Titus 2:13; 2 Tim 4:8\n*** Zech. 12:10; 14:4\u20135; Matt. 24:30\u201331; Rom 11:26\n* Note: \u2018the Day of the Lord\u2019 in the Bible always refers to the day of judgement. This must be distinguished from \u2018the return of the Lord\u2019 which purely refers to when He comes back.\n* Could this refer to \u2018Brexit\u2019, where one of the heads, Britain, is \u2018cut off\u2019 for a time, but then restored back into the kingdom?\nNebuchadnezzar's dream Dan. 2:31\u201345\nHead Gold (Babylon): see also Dan. 7:4\nChest & Arms silver (Media and Persia): see also Dan. 7:5\nBelly and thighs bronze (Greek \u2013 Alexander): see also Dan. 7:6\nLegs iron (Roman): see also Dan. 7:7a\nFeet iron & clay (the beast of Rev 17 & Dan 7:7b\u201311)\nRock (Jesus) uncut from mountain destroys image by striking it on the feet Dan 2:34\u201335\nNote: Prophecies can have double fulfilment and while the head in Dan. 2 is clearly Babylon (for example), the beasts in Dan. 7 could refer both to the empires mentioned above and nations existing at the time of the end.\nDaniel\u2019s 70th week and the times of the Gentiles Dan 9:24\u201327:\n70 weeks = 490 days (or years.

        "raw_content": "This piece is directed toward Christians. While there are many wonderful people who have not accepted the claims of Jesus Christ on their lives but with strong characters are able to do amazing things, for lesser people like me, some actions are totally beyond our capability and could only be done by means of the power He brings into our lives.* This is one of those actions.\nPerhaps the first memory I have of an experience relating to the topic of forgiveness is when I left school, age 15, to become an apprentice piano tuner. The firm that employed me said I would be given experience in three different departments - musical instruments, electronic organs and the piano workshop - and then I would be able to decide in which I would prefer to remain.\n* John 15:5\u201317\nThis made sense to me, so I happily started off in the musical instrument department, which mostly meant selling instruments in the shop and watching the manager of the department undertake various repairs on different ones and occasionally having a go myself. However, after 18 months I had spent just three days in the piano workshop doing a few cleaning jobs, had the occasional trip out with the organ repairer and the rest of the time done nothing but selling things.\nFinally my patience ran out and when I challenged the managing director, he said they had no work in piano reconditioning, so the music department was really the only option. Furious, I immediately left my employment there and spent the next 18 months drifting through three different jobs, none of which was suited to me, but torn apart by resentment and bitterness. Almost every night when in bed I would imagine myself going to the place and setting fire to it, burning it to the ground. I dreamed up all sorts of ways I could get revenge on the managing director who had betrayed me and destroyed all hopes I had of the career on which I had set my heart.\nBrought up in a Christian home and having asked Jesus Christ to become my Saviour at the age of six, I never knew a life away from God; but this period of my life was the time when I lost interest and, partly blaming Him for my troubles, I moved away from Him.\nI don\u2019t remember now when the resentment finally left me; but I guess the starting point was when, aged 18, I rededicated my life to God and He turned me around. That year I started training as a piano technician as a \u2018late improver\u2019 at the only other piano shop in Derby where I lived, and ended up in charge of their piano workshops when the man to whom I was \u2018apprenticed\u2019 sadly died.\nSome years later, to my great shock, the piano shop that had been the cause of my earlier troubles closed down, and Harry, their managing director, came to work as manager of the piano showroom in the shop where I now was running the workshop. I would now have to work with the man of whom I had spent hours dreaming of how I would get my revenge on him! To this day I do not remember the moment when I forgave him for what he had done to me at such a vulnerable time in my life; but I do know that, released from the anger and bitterness, when he joined the company where I now worked I was able to have a friendly relationship with him until my family and I left Derby to live in Dorset.\nI realise that my experience was very minor in comparison to that of others: perhaps an innocent young girl beaten, raped and filled with bitterness at her perpetrator; a toddler tortured and killed, whose parents and other relatives are then torn apart with hatred for the murderer; a child ill treated by their parent(s); a sibling bullied by their brother or sister; relatives of those killed at the hands of religious extremists; and so on.\nIn some ways the actions of Christians, especially Christian leaders, which have caused intense pain and mental anguish, although not as dramatic or physically visible as the previous examples, can be just as difficult to cope with when the perpetrator is someone who one would expect to be the last person to act in such a way. Indeed, devastation has frequently been the result of a leader of a church trampling over individuals in the belief they are serving God by so doing, when in fact the top priority in God\u2019s economy is not building big churches or raising up impressive \u2018ministries\u2019, but \u201clove one another.\u201d * Of course, the foundation of this problem is the misunderstanding that such leaders are there to rule, when their true function is to serve. More on this on my page on church leadership. Equally difficult to take, though, is the experience of church leaders when they are attacked or unsupported by church members. Whichever church we join, it is essential to support, respect and pray for its leadership, because, as in every other area, what we do for them we do for God.**\n** 1 Tim 5:17; Heb 13:7\nNevertheless, whatever the action and whoever does it, God\u2019s method of us responding to it is always the same: forgive! To the Church at Ephesius, He says:*\nEph 4:32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.\nFor anyone who has been hurt, the most likely response to this is that it is both unreasonable and impossible: they have been treated badly, wrongly and unfairly, and the person who mistreated them should not be allowed to get away with it scot free. So let us first look at what forgiveness does not mean.\n* Via Paul, of course.\nPretending it doesn\u2019t matter\nIf it hurt you then it matters very much; but this is a different subject and its importance is unaffected by how you respond to what happened. God is very clear in His word about the way He expects we humans to act toward each other, and when we act dfferently He views this very seriously. He also loves you passionately, and looks at actions taken against you as though they had been taken against Him * (see later about this). So giving forgiveness is not saying what happened is unimportant or can be discounted.\n* Matt 25:40, 45\nSaying it wasn\u2019t wrong\nWhether something someone else did was right or wrong is determined not by us, our actions or our reactions, but by what God has said. It makes no difference how it affected you or how you respond to it now: if it conflicted with behaviour that God expects, then it was wrong. So offering forgiveness it not an admission that what has taken place was ok. It wasn\u2019t! Forgiving someone does not magically transform wrong actions into right ones: they remain just as wrong after they are forgiven as they were the moment they were perpetrated.\nForgiving someone does not exonerate them for what they have done. Once again this is a totally different subject and they will have to account to God for their actions, just as you have to do for yours:\nCol 3:25 But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality.\nEvery action we all take is actually three-way: it is against (or \u2018for\u2019 if it is good) the person directly affected; it is against society; and it is against God.* So, for example, even if a victim forgives her rapist, he still has to answer to the law of the land and pay the penalty,** and will have to face God and answer to Him too.*** One reason it is important that crime receives a just penalty (thus paying the dues to society) is that it eases the way for the victim to forgive; but we\u2019ll look at this in a little more detail in the next section.\n* Gen 39:9; Psalm 51:4\n** Matt 5:25\u201326\n*** 2 Cor 5:10; Rev 20:12\u201315\nThe fact that all you feel is hurt, anger, etc., has nothing to do with forgiveness. You may think you can\u2019t forgive because what you feel is the opposite. However, forgiveness is not an emotion but an action. For an example of this, Jesus said, \u201cGreater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.\u201d * We think of love as being primarily an emotion, but at the moment a person is dying in the act of protecting his friend, he certainly does not experience a \u2018cosy feeling\u2019. The greatest form of love is not feeling but action - an act of will; and in the same way, the greatest form of forgiveness is not feeling it, but doing it.\nUnforgiveness is\u2026\nIt is perfectly understandable why a person hurt by the words or actions of someone else would not want to forgive them, but rather would want them pay an appropriate penalty for what they have done. However, choosing not to forgive is a two-edged sword and there are inevitable consequences when so doing. For example, a person in the early stages of smoking or taking their first \u2018fix\u2019 of drugs may see nothing wrong in the resulting pleasure this brings; but years down the line they are destined to a life of ill-health and addiction; and while the intensity of this result may be a bit of a lottery, it is certain their physical welfare and, if nothing else, their bank balance, will be less than it would have been. Likewise, refusing to forgive and holding resentment, while a natural reaction and an understandable means of coping with unfair treatment, carries with it consequences that may not be immediately apparent. So:\nLocking in the pain\nIt means the situation has not been resolved and therefore it is rehearsed in your mind over and over again, day after day. The hurt you experienced when it happened therefore is repeated over and over, day after day. It never goes away, no matter how many years pass by, and every time it comes to mind the perpetrator hurts you all over again. It is perfectly understandable and reasonable that you feel anger, hurt, bitterness, etc., but the unalterable law of the universe is that you reap what you sow. So every repetition of the incident(s) in your mind sows more pain for tomorrow.\nRom 12:19 Never take revenge, my friends, but instead let God's anger do it.* For the scripture says, \"I will take revenge, I will pay back, says the Lord.\" (GNB**)\nIf you insist on holding on to grudges and wanting to take your own revenge (even if it is only in your own mind) you are in some way hindering God from dealing with the wrong doing. If you want to take matters into your own hands, this is a perfectly natural reaction, but as Christians we need to live by faith and believe that what God has said He will do. His retaliation for the wrong done to you will be far more potent than anything you could do; but in order for Him to do this He needs you to release the wrong doer into His hands, and the only way to do this is to forgive them. So forgiveness is a step of faith that says, \u201cI know God knows what has happened to me and I know He will deal justly with the perpetrator and heal my spirit and soul (my mind, my will and my emotions) so I can carry on in my life free from it all.\u201d\nIf the offender is incapable of repentance, then he/she will experience the full force of God\u2019s wrath on judgement day. But what if they do repent? Doesn\u2019t this mean they will be forgiven and therefore get off scot free? If they are capable of repentance, then your forgiveness creates a win/win situation:\nYou are released from the pain and hurt of the situation.\nYou will receive an eternal reward for obeying God in spite of what you really wanted to do.\nGod loves them as much as He loves you. He hates the sin but loves the sinner. You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have fulfilled His purpose for your life and hearing Him say to you, \u201cWell done, my good and faithful servant!\u201d *\nYour forgiveness initiates a spiritual law that has released them to come to repentance.\nYou have gained a brother/sister who will be eternally grateful to you for your loving response.\nThere are no grudges carried over into the eternity ahead; but we will all know as we are known. When we all understand everything - past, present and future - the comparatively tiny problems we caused each other in this life will dissolve away in the light of God\u2019s love filling us.\n* So taking revenge is not letting God\u2019s anger do it!\n** Scriptures and additional materials quoted are from the Good News Bible \u00a9 1994 published by the Bible Societies/HarperCollins Publishers Ltd UK, Good News Bible\u00a9 American Bible Society 1966, 1971, 1976, 1992. Used with permission.\nThe passage in Romans, from which I just quoted, is an important one; so here it is in full:\nRom 12:14, 17\u201321 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, \"Vengeance is mine, I will repay,\" says the Lord. Therefore \"If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.\"\nChristianity is not an easy option! Contrary to the silly claims made by some that it is a religious crutch for those who can\u2019t cope with life, it is \u2018going against the current\u2019, \u2018swimming upstream\u2019 and acting in ways that sometimes are the opposite of what we see around us. In fact, as I have mentioned several times on this web site, it is impossible, because no human has the strength or ability to fulfil its demands. * This is why God gives us His Holy Spirit to live within us and impart to us the power to act like Jesus, which otherwise would be impossible.\n* John 15:5\nSo our reactions in difficult situations are a part of our fight of faith; and the way we respond demonstrates how real our faith is. Please do not think I am criticising or judging anyone who is presently weighed down with a legacy not of their making due to unfair treatment - the last thing you want or need is for someone to say, \u201cYou are doing it wrong;\u201d or, \u201cYour problem is of your own making.\u201d That would be no help whatsoever; and it would be untrue too. All I can do is to look at what we are taught in God\u2019s word and try to report on it accurately. God has made available to us freedom from all the emotional, physical and psychological pain resulting from our past, through the price Jesus paid in His suffering and death on the cross; but it can only be obtained in His way.\nConsider the example of Jesus. He knew He was the Son of God; He\u2019d sent Satan scampering with His word in the wilderness; He\u2019d sent demons fleeing away from him on numerous occasions as he delivered possessed people; He\u2019d shocked the wisest and cleverest of the Jewish leaders into silence by His arguments; He\u2019d healed the sick and raised the dead; He\u2019d demonstrated over and over again the fact of His relationship with God. But now, nailed to a cross his enemies torment Him with, \u201cIf you are the Son of God, come down.\u201d He had the power to do it. Instead, He retaliated with, \u201cFather, forgive them\u2026\u201d Paul tells us we all should follow His example:\nCol 3:13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.\nYou cannot experience unfairness and mistreatment without giving some kind of a response. This is why we are told:\nMatt 5:39\u201344 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away. \"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbour and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you\u2026\nResponding with resentment, bitterness, anger, thoughts of revenge, etc., may be perfectly natural, but it lays the foundation of a lifetime of pain and hurt. Jesus responded to His unfair treatment by forgiveness, and He comes to live in us by His Spirit in order for us to be able to do what He did. There has to be a response, but it is to be one of blessing, not cursing; doing good, not repaying in kind; and laying the seeds for your own blessing and deliverance from the negative results of the misdeed.\nBlocking the path to God\u2019s forgiveness for ourselves\nWhen we pray the Lord\u2019s Prayer, we ask God to forgive us in the same way we forgive others:\nLuke 11:2\u20134 So He said to them, \"When you pray, say: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.\nJesus stressed this element of the prayer in one of His parables:\nMatt 18:21\u201335 Then Peter came to Him and said, \"Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?\" Jesus said to him, \"I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made. The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, 'Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.' Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, 'Pay me what you owe!' So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.' And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt. So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, 'You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?' And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him. \"So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.\"\nEvery one of us is very aware of the number of things in our own lives for which we need forgiveness. Indeed, the heart of the Christian message is that God offers us free forgiveness for everything on the basis of the sacrifice Jesus made. We can do nothing at all to earn this forgiveness; but we can block it. Jesus made it clear that if we refuse to forgive, then we erect a barrier that prevents God\u2019s forgiveness from reaching us. On the other hand, Jesus said:\nLuke 6:37 Forgive, and you will be forgiven.\nI may feel hurt, angry, upset and deeply grieved by the way someone has acted against me and it is perfectly natural to want justice to be done and to be seen to be done; but there is something far more important at stake here - my eternal destiny that is dependent on receiving God\u2019s forgiveness for my own shortcomings. I simply cannot afford the luxury of short-term satisfaction at the expense of long-term disaster; and holding grudges, resentment, bitterness and everything else that naturally follows, allows the \u2018perpetrator\u2019 to hurt me once again!\nIndeed, Jesus made it clear that Christianity is diametrically opposite to the \u2018natural\u2019 way of acting, as can be seen from what He said just prior to Luke 6:37:\nLuke 6:27\u201337 But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise. But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.\nMatthew reported on the sermon on the mount in this way:\nMatt 5:38-48 \"You have heard that it was said, 'AN EYE FOR AN EYE AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.' But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away. \"You have heard that it was said, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so? Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.\nThis lifetime is very short. When I was young it seemed to stretch before me like an eternity; but now I am in my seventh decade I look back and realise how rapidly it has gone by. Eternity ahead of us is a very long time - it lasts forever! The way we live here and now directly affects the existence ahead of us that will continue without end. Jesus said:\nMatt 6:19-20 Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.\nA part of the treasure we lay up for ourselves is the beings we will become as a result of how we live now. As Paul teaches us, this life is a seed that is planted to produce something much more glorious in eternity:\n1 Cor 15:35-43 But someone will say, \"How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?\" Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies. And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain\u2014perhaps wheat or some other grain. But God gives it a body as He pleases, and to each seed its own body. All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.\nSince even giving a cup of cold water brings its reward,* it is clear that every experience brings with it the opportunity to improve our \u2018seed\u2019 and give us a more glorious existence in the eternal ages to come, and just as one star differs from another in its glory, so we too have the opportunity to be raised to a more glorious resurrection. Therefore, if Jesus could endure the cross ** for the joy that it would later produce, how much more important is it for us to forgive for the reward this will bring in releasing us from the pain of the hurt we have suffered in the here and now, and a brighter eternity in the future?\n** Heb 12:2\nIt is not for me to tell you how to pray; but I suggest incorporating the following elements in a prayer (perhaps best spoken out loud) would be a good first step in response to the bad things done to us.\nFather, I do not feel forgiving toward x, and I do want justice.\nBut I want to obey You and please You more.\nSo I ask for Your power to enable me to do it.\nIn the name of Jesus I forgive x fully for everything and relinquish all my rights for retaliation. I ask You to bless x and turn him/her into everything You have planned for him/her.\nX is now forgiven and set free from everything involved with the situation. So I ask You please to release me from all feelings of upset related to all that has happened.\nI choose to walk in faith believing that You have done it and set me free. So I thank You for saving me in every area of my life, including this one.\nFaith means that sometimes you have to believe God\u2019s word even when you can\u2019t experience it. There\u2019s an old story about three people, called Fact, Faith and Feelings, who were walking on the top of a wall. Fact was at the front and Feelings at the back. When Faith kept his eyes on Fact he was fine; but when he turned around to look at Feelings he lost his balance and fell off. While our eyes on on the fact of God\u2019s word we are fine, but when we turn away from that and consider the way we feel instead, we come to grief.\nSo if the feelings of resentment, bitterness and hurt do not leave immediately, this is not an indication nothing has happened, but is simply the normal process of the fight of faith.* Every day thank God for hearing you, for blessing x and for setting you free from all the negative effects of what has happened. Every time the negative feelings arise say out loud something like, \u201cI have forgiven x and God has delivered me from everything; so I reject these feelings as lies and thank You Lord for Your full salvation.\u201d\n* 1 Tim 6:12\nI pray God\u2019s richest blessing on You as you walk in faith with Him and trust Him to do everything He has promised in His word.",

        "raw_content": "Warner Music Group Corp. Reports Results for the Fiscal Second\nRevenue Grew Year Over Year; Digital Revenue Represented Nearly Half of U.S. Recorded Music Revenue\n-- Total revenue of $682 million grew 2% from the prior-year quarter\non both an as-reported and constant-currency basis.\nconstant-currency basis. Digital revenue grew 18% sequentially from\nthe first quarter of fiscal 2011, or 17% on a constant-currency basis.\n-- Operating income was $16 million compared to operating income of\n$24 million in the prior-year quarter.  Operating income included\n$7 million of severance charges ($3 million in Recorded Music and\n$4 million in Music Publishing) compared to $6 million of severance\ncharges in the prior-year quarter ($5 million in Recorded Music and\n$1 million in Corporate) (the \"Severance Charges\").\n-- Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) of\n$82 million was down 6% from the prior-year quarter.  OIBDA for the\ncurrent- and prior-year quarters included the Severance Charges.\n-- Net loss was $0.25 per diluted share compared to a net loss of $0.17\na $0.05 per diluted share impact in the current quarter and a $0.04\nper diluted share impact in the prior-year quarter.\n\"Our focus on disciplined A&R investments, successful revenue diversification and innovative digital strategies has helped us to grow both our Recorded Music and Music Publishing revenue,\" said Edgar Bronfman, Jr., Warner Music Group's Chairman and CEO. \"We are excited to see our digital revenue approach the 50% milestone for U.S. Recorded Music and to see 60% of our active global artist roster signed to expanded-rights deals.\"\n\"Our artist development efforts balanced against ongoing cost-management efforts enabled us to support our OIBDA margins in the quarter, and position us well for the long term,\" added Steven Macri, Warner Music Group's Executive Vice President and CFO.\nFor the quarter, revenue grew 2.4% to $682 million from $666 million in the prior-year quarter, and was up 1.6% on a constant-currency basis. The increase in revenue reflected growth in both the company's Recorded Music and Music Publishing businesses.\nDomestic revenue was up 2.6% while international revenue improved 1.9%, or 0.3% on a constant-currency basis. Revenue growth in France, the U.S., Canada and certain Asia-Pacific countries offset declines in Japan, the U.K. and other parts of Europe.\nDigital revenue of $220 million grew 8.9% over the prior-year quarter, or 7.8% on a constant-currency basis. Digital revenue was up 17.6% sequentially from the first quarter of fiscal 2011, or 17.0% on a constant-currency basis, and represented 32.3% of total revenue for the second quarter. The growth in digital revenue over the prior-year quarter primarily reflected strength in global digital downloads and streaming, partially offset by continued declines in global mobile revenue.\nOperating income was $16 million compared to operating income of $24 million in the prior-year quarter. Operating margin was down 1.3 percentage points to 2.3% compared to the prior-year quarter. OIBDA decreased 5.7% to $82 million from $87 million in the prior-year quarter and OIBDA margin contracted 1.1 percentage points to 12.0% (see below for calculations and reconciliations of OIBDA and OIBDA margin). Operating income and OIBDA for the current- and prior-year quarters included the Severance Charges.\nNet loss was $38 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $25 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. The Severance Charges had a $0.05 per diluted share impact in the current quarter and a $0.04 per diluted share impact in the prior-year quarter.\nNet cash provided by operating activities was $106 million compared to $93 million in the prior-year quarter. Free Cash Flow (defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and cash paid or received for investments) was $46 million compared to $54 million in the prior-year quarter. The decrease in Free Cash Flow was primarily related to the previously disclosed acquisition of Southside Independent Music Publishing and higher capital expenditures, partially offset by the higher net cash provided by operating activities. Unlevered After-Tax Cash Flow (defined as Free Cash Flow excluding cash interest paid) was $46 million, compared to $54 million in the prior-year quarter (see below for calculations and reconciliations of Free Cash Flow and Unlevered After-Tax Cash Flow). As all interest is paid semi-annually in the first and third quarters of the fiscal year, there is no difference in the second quarter between Free Cash Flow and Unlevered After-Tax Cash Flow.\nRevenue from the company's Recorded Music business grew 2.2% from the prior-year quarter to $550 million, or 1.1% on a constant-currency basis. The increase reflected strength in France, Canada, Italy and certain Asia-Pacific countries, partially offset by declines in Japan, the U.K. and other parts of Europe.\nDomestic Recorded Music revenue grew 0.4% from the prior-year quarter to $254 million, while international Recorded Music revenue was up 3.9%, or 1.7% on a constant-currency basis, to $296 million. The company's Recorded Music business experienced growth in international physical revenue, U.S. licensing revenue and global digital and other revenue, which more than offset contracting demand for physical product in the U.S. The top sellers in the quarter included Bruno Mars, R.E.M., Wiz Khalifa, Cee Lo Green and Lupe Fiasco.\nRecorded Music digital revenue of $205 million grew 6.8% over the prior-year quarter, or 5.7% on a constant-currency basis, and represented 37.3% of total Recorded Music revenue, compared with 35.7% in the prior-year quarter. Domestic Recorded Music digital revenue grew 1.7% to $122 million, or 48.0% of total domestic Recorded Music revenue, compared with 47.4% in the prior-year quarter. International Recorded Music digital revenue grew 15.3%, or 12.2% on a constant-currency basis, to $83 million, and represented 28.0% of total international Recorded Music revenue, compared with 25.3% in the prior-year quarter. Growth in digital revenue was driven by strength in global digital downloads and streaming, partially offset by declines in global mobile revenue.\nRecorded Music operating income improved to $10 million from $6 million in the prior-year quarter, resulting in an operating margin of 1.8%, up 0.7 percentage points from 1.1% in the prior-year quarter. Recorded Music OIBDA rose 10.2% to $54 million for the quarter and Recorded Music OIBDA margin expanded 0.7 percentage points from the prior-year quarter to 9.8%. The increase in operating income and OIBDA was a result of higher revenue and ongoing cost-management efforts. Recorded Music operating income and OIBDA for the current- and prior-year quarters included the Severance Charges.\nMusic Publishing revenue was up 2.2% from the prior-year quarter on both an as-reported and constant-currency basis to $137 million. Domestic Music Publishing revenue rose 13.0% from the prior-year quarter to $61 million, while international Music Publishing revenue fell 5.0% on both an as-reported and constant-currency basis.\nDigital revenue from Music Publishing grew to $17 million from $13 million, up 30.8% on both an as-reported and a constant-currency basis, and represented 12.4% of total Music Publishing revenue. Synchronization revenue improved 29.2%, while performance revenue declined 9.1% and mechanical revenue decreased 15.0%. On a constant-currency basis, synchronization revenue grew 34.8%, performance revenue declined 7.4% and mechanical revenue fell 12.8%.\nSynchronization revenue is beginning to reflect the company's focused effort to revitalize this segment of the Music Publishing business and digital revenue is benefitting from the success of streaming services and the general expansion of digital services around the world. The decline in performance revenue primarily reflected a comparison against the prior-year quarter which included $8 million of revenue from a low margin studio administration deal which the company elected not to renew. This is the final quarter for which the prior-year quarter will reflect revenue from that deal. The mechanical revenue decline reflected the ongoing transition in the recorded music industry.\nMusic Publishing operating income declined to $31 million from $43 million in the prior-year quarter, resulting in an operating margin of 22.6%, down 9.5 percentage points from the prior-year quarter. Music Publishing OIBDA fell 18.0% to $50 million while Music Publishing OIBDA margin contracted 9.0 percentage points to 36.5%, a level which is consistent with the margin in past years. The margin contraction compared to the prior-year quarter was primarily the result of a previously disclosed prior-year adjustment in royalty reserves. Additionally, Music Publishing operating income and OIBDA for the current-year quarter included the Severance Charges.\nOperations, Three and Six Months 3/31/11 versus 3/31/10\nRevenues         $     682  $     666     2%   $   1,471  $   1,586    (7%)\nrevenues             (357)      (329)    9%        (799)      (846)   (6%)\nexpenses             (254)      (259)   (2%)       (520)      (559)   (7%)\nassets                (55)       (54)    2%        (109)      (110)   (1%)\nexpenses        $    (666) $    (642)    4%   $  (1,428) $  (1,515)   (6%)\nOperating income $      16  $      24   (33%)  $      43  $      71   (39%)\nInterest expense,\nnet                   (47)       (46)    2%         (94)       (97)   (3%)\nOther expense,\nnet                    (1)        (4)  (75%)         (1)        (3)  (67%)\nincome taxes    $     (32) $     (26)   23%   $     (52) $     (29)   79%\nexpense                (7)        (2)    -

Constant-currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period over period. We use results on a constant-currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. We calculate constant-currency results by applying current-year foreign currency exchange rates to prior-year results. However, a limitation of the use of the constant-currency results as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the impact of exchange rates on our revenue, including, for example, the $5 million and $6 million favorable impact of exchange rates on our Total and Recorded Music revenue, in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the prior-year quarter. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant-currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not a measure of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.\nThree      Three      Three       Six        Six        Six\nMarch 31,  March 31,  March 31,  March 31,  March 31,  March 31,\nMusic  $     254  $     253  $     253  $     515  $     539  $    539\ning           61         54         54        100        101       101\nMusic        296        285        291        708        784       772\nelimin-\nations          (5)        (6)        (7)        (9)       (12)      (13)\nRevenue  $     682  $     666  $     671  $   1,471  $   1,586  $  1,569\nMusic    $     550  $     538  $     544  $   1,223  $   1,323  $  1,311\nMechanical     34         40         39         73         87        85\nPerformance    50         55         54         94        105       102\nization       31         24         23         55         49        49\nDigital        17         13         13         28         28        28\nOther           5          2          5          7          6         7\ning            137        134        134        257        275       271\nRevenue  $     220  $     202  $     204  $     407  $     388  $    390\nby (used in) operating\nactivities              $       106  $        93  $        (7) $        51\nexpenditures                     14            8           22           15\ninvestments                      46           31          104           26\nFree Cash Flow (a)       $        46  $        54  $      (133) $        10\n(a) - Free Cash Flow includes cash paid for interest as follows\nFree Cash Flow        $        46  $        54  $      (133) $        10\ninterest                       -            -           88           81\nCash Flow            $        46  $        54  $       (45) $        91\nhttp://www2.marketwire.com/mw/emailprcntct?id=8BE4E2978581A67A\nhttp://www2.marketwire.com/mw/emailprcntct?id=312DE271955E3965",

        "title": "Supreme Court ruling on Apple App Store fee case not expected until mid-2019",
        "raw_content": "As the world turns its eyes Thursday to the hearings in Washington of U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, one analyst is looking ahead to one of the cases the Court will be considering this fall.\nThe report authored by Schachter notes that the U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments in Apple v. Pepper, a case concerning the antitrust implications of Apple\u2019s App Store fees, as early as the last week of November. However, the analyst notes that the arguments could be pushed back to early 2019.\n\u201cIn the scenario that Pepper wins (if court rules that consumers are \u201cdirect purchasers\u201d with grounds to sue), the case will continue back in the lower courts,\u201d the note said. \u201cIf Apple wins, it is likely that a similar lawsuit will be filed on behalf of developers, not consumers. We believe that under either scenario, this case will call heightened attention to the issue of App Store economics to investors\u2019 analysis, although the Supreme Court decision will not directly impact the model.\u201d\nThe note says that the case could hurt Apple\u2019s performance if the decision results in lower rates, although that is several steps away. Macquarie, in the note, did not adjust its price target for Apple, keeping it at $235.\nA decision is likely to arrive in the spring or summer of 2019.\nThe Pepper case was first filed in 2011. The case concerns a group of app developers who believe Apple\u2019s App Store fee regime violates antitrust laws. The plaintiffs allege that Apple has engaged in anti-competitive behaviors in taking a cut from developers\u2019 sale proceeds. Also at issue in the case is whether companies like Apple can be sued under antitrust law over App Stores, with the plaintiffs potentially awarded treble damages because of the behavior. Google, which has its own version of the App Store, would also be affected by any ruling.\nIn May, The Department of Justice filed a brief taking Apple\u2019s side in the Pepper case. Apple appealed to the Supreme Court after the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals sided with the plaintiffs, and the court agreed in June to hear the case during its next term.\nThis entry was posted in Uncategorized by IosdroneD.

Four in ten small-business owners stated they were increasing their customer service budget to improve their offer this year.\nAmong those who said they had no intention of spending more on improving customer service, 70% said they had already met or exceeded customer expectations, while 14% admitted that fine tuning service levels \u201cwas not a priority\u201d.\nAccording to the Forum of Private Business (FPB) smaller firms were often well placed to pick up business from bigger rivals because of superior customer service.\n\u201cWhile big firms might often be able to offer slightly cheaper prices because of economies of scale, smaller businesses should remember that bottom-end price is not necessarily what clients want. Clients appreciate relationships and being able to offer a more tailored approach to customer requirements can put small firms ahead,\u201d\nsaid FPB spokesperson Robert Downes.\nDownes added that firms offering \u201cabove and beyond\u201d normal customer service levels were also likely to be better able to retain business and win word-of-mouth recommendations.\nGary Young, head of customer operations at Sage UK, said that any small business that took a \u201claissez-faire\u201d attitude towards its customers was limiting its chances of success.\n\u201cConsumers know it\u2019s a buyer\u2019s market and they, quite rightly, want more than just a product when they make a purchase,\u201d Young added. \u201cOver the coming months we\u2019re going to see more and bigger businesses encroach this space as firms seek to win the hearts and minds of consumers as a new route to their wallets.\u201d\nIf you\u2019re looking to brush up on customer service at your business then take a look at the following small business advice articles:\nIncreasing Sales Through Customer Feedback\nHow to provide great customer service by listening to client feedback\u2026\nProviding excellent customer service is the key to doing great business\u2026\nShould Business ISPs Adopt Common Benchm...\nA Guide on How to Boost your Customer Se...",

        "title": "worDLcat? \u2013 Jeffrey Pomerantz",
        "raw_content": "I want to start this by saying that this was completely Kathleen Kern\u2018s idea. We were talking over dinner at LIDA last week, and she asked me, essentially, \u201cWhy isn\u2019t there an equivalent of WorldCat for digital libraries?\u201d I gave some lame answer: no standardization across DLs, complexity of dealing with item- and collection-level description simultaneously, cost, I don\u2019t even remember what all I said. (In my defense, we were well into a rather good bottle of Pelje\u0161ac red.) As I was thinking about it though, I realized that it would be completely possible to build such a database. All of the technology is in place, it wouldn\u2019t even require developing new tools. It would just take time, money, and grad students. It\u2019s a completely tractable problem.\nAnd because I just can\u2019t help myself sometimes, my first thought about what to call this database was: worDLcat. It\u2019s a dumb name, really, and as Kathleen pointed out completely unpronounceable. Also maybe trademark infringement. But that\u2019s what I\u2019m going to call it here, because I don\u2019t have any better ideas.\nSo anyway, this was Kathleen\u2019s idea. But I\u2019ve started to run with it a bit, at least in my head to start to think through what might be involved.\nPoint the first: WorldCat is based on MARC. But is there more to WorldCat than that? WorldCat\u2019s search interface disguises the MARC back-end, happily for those of us who don\u2019t think like a cataloger (i.e., most of humanity). Has OCLC added fields or values beyond what\u2019s in MARC? I don\u2019t know. I have an email out to a colleague at OCLC to see if I can get access to this info. I recently discovered the MCDU Project, for which Bill Moen (a fellow Syracuse alum\u2026 it\u2019s a small discipline) analyzed a subset of WorldCat records. So that subset might be a place to start to answer this question.\nPoint the first, sub-point A: Would a database of DL items require fields and values not utilized in WorldCat? That don\u2019t even exist in MARC? Maybe. I\u2019d bet yes. It\u2019s an empirical question.\nPoint the second: Item- vs. collection-level description. I think the way to go on this is the way WorldCat has gone: have a record for every item, and have each record contain a field that is essentially a pointer to the collection(s) that item resides in. In WorldCat, of course, each item is likely to reside in many (or at least a few) collections. There are unique items in most libraries\u2019 collections, and those may have records in WorldCat, but on the whole there\u2019s a lot of duplication between library collections. In DLs this is not so much the case. Projects like Google Books and the Internet Archive Text Archive are digitizing, well, books, which are going to held by many collections. But perhaps linking to those books is a job for the Open Library? At this point the Open Library does not list or link to the library collections that hold books, but this would be a useful future feature. Anyway, to date DLs have by and large been developed to highlight and disseminate unique materials held by libraries and other organizations. And that is as it should be, frankly. As the Library of Congress\u2019 Final Report of the Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control says: Enhance access to rare, unique, and other special hidden materials. So there is likely to be a much higher percentage of unique items in a database of DL materials than in WorldCat.\nPoint the third: Sustainability. Well, not really sustainability\u2026 let\u2019s say updating. If a library is a growing organism, then a DL is doubly so (whatever that would mean). New items are added to DLs all the time, items change, etc. So how could worDLcat keep up? OAI-PMH is the obvious mechanism. Which means that all items in all DLs must be OAI compliant. I would hope that this would be a critical mass / tipping point thing: worDLcat would start with the low-hanging fruit, the existing OAI compliant stuff. Then as worDLcat gains use, there would be an incentive for more DLs to become OAI compliant, just as there\u2019s an incentive for libraries to participate in WorldCat. When a new DL comes online though, its developers would have to submit it to worDLcat, as one submits a URL to a search engine to crawl. I\u2019m not sure we could operationalize DLs well enough to build a specialized bot to go out & crawl the web & harvest only materials from DLs. I\u2019ve given up trying to define DLs even in my DL course: I give my students some papers to read, have a discussion about definition, & then tell them that I think it really doesn\u2019t matter how you define what a DL is.\nPoint the fourth: Accessibility & discoverability. If we want to enhance access to rare, unique, and other special hidden materials, then worDLcat should be freely available, not by subscription like WorldCat. Like the Open Library, or LibraryThing. Which suddenly brings Web 2.0 into the conversation. If WorldCat were suddenly opened up and Web 2.0-ified, what would / should that look like? Not quite like LibraryThing, since the assumption is not that you own these materials yourself. But some of the user-contributed and automatic features might be appropriate: tags, reviews, recommendations. Flexibility to define complex objects within, maybe even across collections? Functionality to save items in a shopping cart-like space: MyworDLcat? Oy, that\u2019s even more unpronounceable.\nOk, I\u2019ve spent enough time on this post, when I should be doing other things. If anyone ever reads this, I\u2019m looking for feedback, thoughts, ideas, etc. This is a completely tractable problem, and I believe even grant fundable. So, My Beloved Audience, if you have any ideas about this, I\u2019d like to hear them.\nTags: Conferences, Librarianship, Library 2.0, Research ideas, Technology, Web 2.0\nJeff, I agree that this is a great idea. I\u2019ve thought before that many of our database problems (ie multiple databases) would be solved if we had something like worldcat for journal articles, something that would make articles (whether print or electronic) as searchable from one database as worldcat makes books.\nDoing this for digital libraries make absolute sense. It\u2019s brilliant, really. One of the reasons we reference librarians may send people down the hall to special collections (as Kathleen noted) is because we simply have no notion of the content of these libraries.\nLast year, at the few events I attended in honor of Fred Kilgour, I was struck repeatedly by Fred\u2019s unique combination of vision and talent. He could visualize something, and then he had the technical skills to make it happen. I think we need a Fred Kilgour for our current library needs.\nI don\u2019t know why I never thought of this before, but of course OAIster is kind of like what I\u2019m envisioning here: http://www.oclc.org/oaister/ It\u2019s a union catalog of digital library materials, anyway. As of this writing, it claims \u201cmore than 23 million records representing digital resources from more than 1,100 contributors.\u201d That\u2019s hardly a complete set of all DL holdings in the world, but then WorldCat isn\u2019t complete either. OAIster is also integrated with WorldCat, though I don\u2019t know what the back end looks like, or what the record structure is. So there you are.\n\u201cBut perhaps linking to those books is a job for the Open Library? At this point the Open Library does not list or link to the library collections that hold books, but this would be a useful future feature.\u201d\nYes, absolutely. Open Library is there to connect people with books, whether they\u2019re physical or digital. You might have seen the recent launch of a small set of ebooks available to be borrowed:\nhttp://blog.openlibrary.org/2010/06/29/small-moves-open-library-integrates-digital-lending/\nWe created brand new edition records in Open Library for all of the ebook titles from OverDrive, and are trying something small with the books that have been scanned by the Internet Archive. You can see that there are 3 libraries participating in the small lending collection, as well as the Internet Archive itself. For any book from one of those libraries in the lending collection, we note them as a \u201ccontributor\u201d (Internet Archive-specific term), as in the library that contributed the book to the scanning program. It\u2019s not a big jump to imagine any/all libraries that have ever had a book scanned through the Archive to become contributors like this, lending e-versions of books from their collections through Open Library. A natural way to enhance this would be to start treating libraries as objects (with a searchable presence) on Open Library, which we\u2019d really like to do, no matter what happens with the lending launch.\nWe\u2019re also planning to build a way for people to add a link to an electronic version of a book somewhere else on the web (and not in the Internet Archive, though we\u2019d be happy to store a copy, if desired). People are already beginning to do that organically in book or author descriptions. Would be nice to try and catch it in a structured way too, if we can. No ETA yet, but it\u2019s definitely moving up the To Do list \ud83d\ude42\n(P.S. I work at Open Library.)",

Doyle on standoff? \u2192\nAfter 3000 Columns, Here Goes My Blog\nBusiness and Education, General Blog, Green & Gold, Lean Disciplines, The Startup Economy\nCan an old media guy make it in the new media world? Don\u2019t know, but I\u2019m going to give it a whirl. The new media is decidedly democratic (small d), so I\u2019ll know pretty soon whether what I have to offer is of value to readers.\nAfter more than 50 years of intense involvement in business, journalism and economic development, I think I have something to offer. For most of those years, I penned columns on the business and economic worlds of Wisconsin \u2013 more than 3000 columns combined for the small West Bend (WI) News, where I served as editor and general manager, and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, where I served as business editor and columnist.\nI will continue my 40-year-old local column in West Bend, and I welcome back my former readers of the Journal Sentinel, all seven of them. I got myself fired in 2010 by the Journal Sentinel editor for some truth-telling about the financial melt-down at his company.\nAs one of my journalist brothers reminded me in the aftermath, there\u2019s an old proverb that says: \u201cIf you are planning on telling the truth, have a fast horse outside the door.\u201d\nMe and my old horse aren\u2019t so fast any more, but I\u2019m still engaged in finding innovative solutions for my company, Serigraph Inc., for reinventing the rust belt and for taming the beast of hyper-inflation in health care.\nMy kind of journalism is the stick-your-nose-into-it brand. Find out what really works and what doesn\u2019t, and the write about it. My recent book, \u201cThe Company That Solved Health Care,\u201d is an example. It is short and direct in telling how Serigraph has essentially flat-lined its health costs over the last eight years. It is about empirical learning. It is about reform from the grass roots up, not the top-down mandate approach of the federal government.\nInsolvent Midwestern states are taking notice and are beginning to adopt similar reforms.\nMy approach to economic reincarnation in the rust belt is the same. Go do something about it, and then write it up. I am one of the founders of a non-profit group called BizStarts Milwaukee that is promoting a revived entrepreneurial culture in Southeastern Wisconsin. And I helped start an angel investing group, called Successful Entrepreneur Investors LLC, a for-profit network of accredited investors who are putting money into new ventures in the region.\nPreviously, I had a hand in several entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial ventures. One made it nicely through the gauntlet of startup hurdles.\nIt\u2019s been great fun and very satisfying. The various players in the region are now starting about one high-growth company a month. I think we can double that pace.\nWe learned a lot from other regions in the Midwest, such as JumpStarts in the entrepreneur space in Cleveland. There are many comparables across the great Heartland of this country, and I will try top bring those perspectives and comparisons to bear in my postings.\nAfter leading a leveraged buyout and serving as CEO of Serigraph for 20 years, I moved up to chairman. My able son and his executive team are running the company, and I try to stay out of their way. I now have the time for my obsessions, and journalism remains one of them.\nIt\u2019s in my DNA. My grandfather created the Green Bay Press-Gazette and wrote its editorials. My dad was the editor and wrote a book on the early history of the Green Bay Packers called \u201cThe Packer Legend \u2013 An Inside Look.\u201d And two of my brothers were award winning journalists. Brother Mark wrote a fun-loving book on duck hunting in Saskatchewan called \u201cPrairie Pot Hole Fever.\u201d Journalist brother Tom is an exquisite and accessible poet.\nThanks for checking out this web site. I am a firm believer in dialog as a way of tackling complex issues, so please respond with your thoughts.\nThis entry was posted in Business and Education, General Blog, Green & Gold, Lean Disciplines, The Startup Economy and tagged Green Bay Press-Gazette, John Torinus, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Serigraph, The Company That Solved Health Care, Torinus, West Bend, Wisconsin.

This is partly due to the development of a number of new anaesthetic, analgesic and adjuvant drugs, each with more rapid onset and shorter duration of action, over the past two decades. An interest in the issues discussed in this thesis arose out a desire to improve the quality of anaesthesia for patients who undergo day-case surgery. A second aim was to compare the different anaesthetic methods in terms of recovery from anaesthesia and costs.\nA total of 233 patients undergoing day-case knee arthroscopy under either 2% or 5% lidocaine spinal anaesthesia or general anaesthesia with desflurane, isoflurane, propofol or sevoflurane were investigated in two prospective, randomised clinical trials. The overall aims were to find the most suitable, satisfactory and economically feasible method for adult ambulatory knee arthroscopy and to assess the factors that affect the immediate postoperative period and the one-week recovery profile at home.\nThe patients were highly satisfied with all the methods of anaesthesia. There was a slight tendency in favour of general anaesthesia compared to spinal anaesthesia. The general level of pain after ambulatory knee surgery was low after the first few hours postoperatively and continued to be low during the first postoperative week. After short-acting general anaesthesia with desflurane, isoflurane and propofol, home readiness was achieved over two hours earlier than after 5% lidocaine spinal anaesthesia. Home readiness was significantly delayed after 2% lidocaine spinal anaesthesia compared to sevoflurane inhalation anaesthesia. General anaesthesia with isoflurane was cheaper than the other general anaesthetics, i.e. desflurane, sevoflurane, propofol, or 2% and 5% lidocaine spinal anaesthesias. Propofol anaesthesia was the most expensive. The spinal anaesthesia patients had a higher incidence of headache, backache and lower leg pain during the first postoperative week than the patients who had had general anaesthesia.\nIn busy ambulatory surgery units, remarkable savings may be achieved by using short-acting general anaesthetics, i.e. desflurane and isoflurane, instead of propofol or sevoflurane general anaesthesias or lidocaine spinal anaesthesia. This is due to the lower costs of desflurane and isoflurane compared to sevoflurane and propofol and the shorter time needed for postoperative care compared to spinal anaesthesia.\nday-case anaesthesia",

        "raw_content": "Forecasters predicting warm winter with average precipitation for Kingman\nAn unusual weather pattern accounted for the Kingman area receiving 1.72 inches of precipitation in October, more than twice the average amount of .76 inches for the month, according to Randy Cerveny, professor of geography at Arizona State University.\n\"The weather pattern that set up in October was the same pattern we had in the early 1990s when storms came down the coast from the Pacific Ocean, drew in moisture from the tropics and came together over Arizona,\" he said.\nInformation supplied by the ASU Office of Climatology indicates Kingman had eight days with measurable rainfall in October.\nThe area had no precipitation during September.\n\"We had a series of low pressure systems affecting the West Coast in October,\" said Andy Gorelow, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Las Vegas.\n\"Every three or four days a system dropped down from the Pacific Northwest, bringing in a lot of moisture.\n\"October is usually one of our driest months, especially in Las Vegas.\nBut we got three times as much moisture as normal.\"\nAt present, the eastern Pacific Ocean is free of either the La Nina or El Nino weather phenomenon.\nIn El Nino years, such as the winter of 1997-98, westward trade winds weaken.\nThat permits a mass of warm water in the western Pacific to flow eastward toward South America and sea surface temperatures can rise by as much as 14 degrees.\nDuring La Nina, easterly trade winds strengthen.\nCold water upwelling intensifies off the coasts of Equador and Peru and sea surface temperatures may fall by eight degrees.\nLa Nina has dominated since the end of the last El Nino in 1998.\nBut Cerveny and Gorelow disagree as to whether the lack of either phenomenon makes forecasting more difficult.\n\"It's much harder for seasonal forecasting,\" Cerveny said.\n\"We're used to a rise or fall in sea surface temperatures to tell us what will happen.\nNow we'll have to go back into our bag of tricks to see just what if influencing climatic changes.\"\n\"You still have weather patterns out there changing all the time, so it's no more difficult or easier to forecast,\" Gorelow said.\n\"We'll just follow the jet stream and see which way the storm systems are carried.\"\nThe National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center in Maryland has forecast warmer than normal temperatures and average amounts of precipitation for northwest Arizona this winter, Gorelow said.\nThe short-term forecast indicates the Kingman area can expect low pressure systems to move through bringing rain this weekend and in the middle of next week, he said.\n\"We're not seeing any change in the pattern right now,\" Gorelow said.\n\"It's the same thing that has been happening for the past month.\"\nCerveny agrees that Kingman will experience above normal temperatures in the next three months.\nRecently released statistics indicate that northwest Arizona remains locked in the grip of severe drought, despite the rains of October, Cerveny said.\nThe rest of the state is near normal with the southern portion of the state above normal in terms of soil moisture, he said.\n\"I've looked at the seasonal forecast and there will be no big changes in precipitation patterns in the next three months,\" Cerveny said.\n\"But we can expect above normal temperatures and that does not bode well for the ski industry.\"\nForecasters: Rainfall expected to be near normal\nTemperatures above average in Kingman\nEl Nino, La Nina make forecasting less predictable\nDrought expected to continue\nNear-record heat coming to Kingman area, experts say",

The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rapidly increasing in Asian countries. However, the quality of websites for IBD available in this region has not been evaluated. We aimed to evaluate the quality of the information on IBD obtained from Korean websites.\nUsing the terms \u201cCrohn\u2019s disease\u201d or \u201culcerative colitis,\u201d websites were selected from those obtained with the three most renowned search engines in Korea; 60 websites from the results of each engine were chosen. The websites were classified into institutional, commercial, charitable, supportive, or alternative medicine types according to the characteristics of each site. The websites were evaluated regarding content quality using the validated DISCERN instrument and the Journal of the American Medical Association benchmarks.\nThe median score of all the websites according to the DISCERN instrument was 32 (interquartile range, 25 to 47) out of 80, indicating an insufficient overall quality of information. The alternative medicine sites scored the lowest, whereas the institutional sites scored the highest (p < 0.05). The quality of information was significantly different among the search engines (p = 0.028). The rank of appearance in the Google search result did not correlate with the quality level of the information.\nThe quality of information on the Internet regarding IBD varied according to the website type and search engine. Accreditation and quality assurance systems should be implemented for websites to ensure that the public and patients obtain accurate information on IBD.\nKeywords: Inflammatory bowel diseases; Crohn disease; Colitis, ulcerative; Internet; Quality improvement\nInflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn\u2019s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a disorder that causes chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Although the clear etiology of IBD has not been elucidated, it is known that genetic, immunologic, and environmental factors are associated with the development of IBD [1]. A growing body of evidence indicates that the incidence of IBD is rapidly increasing in Asian countries [2-5].\nAt present, the numbers of patients and members of the public who search for health information on the Internet are soaring. Research has shown that 85% of physicians have had a patient bring health information from the Internet to a visit [6]. The number of individuals using the Internet is rapidly growing worldwide, and Internet users in Asia account for 51% of all global Internet users [7]. A survey has shown that 88.3% of South Koreans use the Internet [8] and that the highest Internet use according to age is observed in teenagers, followed by people in their 20s and 30s. Given that IBD is a chronic disease and often occurs at a young age, it can be assumed that many IBD patients are searching for health information on the Internet. Several studies regarding the quality of IBD information on the Internet have been reported in Western countries [9-15]. However, the quality of such information in Asia has not been evaluated.\nTherefore, the aim of our study was to evaluate the quality of the content of Korean websites containing information on IBD. We also assessed the quality of the information on IBD according to website type and search result ranking.\nWe chose three of the most commonly used search engines in South Korea: Naver (www.naver.com), Daum (www.daum.net), and Google Korea (www.google.co.kr). The search terms \u201cCrohn\u2019s disease\u201d and \u201culcerative colitis\u201d were entered in the Korean language. Websites covering information on CD or UC for the public or patients that were written in the Korean language were included. We adopted the first 30 results from each search engine for both the CD and UC searches. Duplicate websites were excluded. The websites were classified into one of the following five types: (1) institutional websites managed by the government, a hospital, or a university (institutional sites); (2) commercially sponsored websites or private medical websites (commercial sites); (3) charitable websites managed by nonprofit organizations (charitable sites); (4) personal web pages for support or websites managed by patient support groups (supportive sites); and (5) alternative medicine websites about unorthodox therapies (alternative sites) [10]. The quality of the websites was evaluated using the DISCERN instrument [16] and the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) benchmarks [17]. Two researchers independently performed the quality evaluation from October 1 to 30, 2016. One researcher had more than 5 years\u2019 experience in the field of gastroenterology and the other had been taking care of IBD patients for 12 years. Disagreements between the two researchers were resolved by re-examining the websites after the robust discussion. Since this study was designed to evaluate the information of IBD on Korean websites, there was no potential ethical issue and the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval was waived. Informed consent was also not required because data was obtained from the websites.\nThe DISCERN instrument is a questionnaire that provides users with a valid and reliable way to assess the quality of information on treating a health problem [16]. The instrument consists of 15 key questions and an overall quality rating. The score for each question is determined based on a 5-point scale ranging from \u2018no\u2019 to \u2018yes\u2019 (Supplementary Table 1). A higher score indicates better quality. Questions 1 to 8 address the reliability of the information, while Questions 9 to 15 focus on specific details of the information regarding treatment choices, and Question 16 is the overall quality rating. The instrument has been used in several reports to evaluate the quality of websites regarding health information on various diseases, including IBD [10-12,18]. The JAMA benchmarks are also designed to assist users in assessing the quality of health information on websites [17]. The benchmarks consist of the following four concepts: (1) authors, contributors, affiliations, and credentials should be provided (authorship); (2) references, sources, and copyright for all information should be clearly provided (attribution); (3) the ownership of websites should be prominently and fully disclosed (disclosure); and (4) dates when the information was posted and updated should be provided (currency). As 1 point is allocated for each of the criteria met, scores range from 0 to 4; a higher score indicates better quality. Although these benchmarks have been applied to evaluate the quality of website-derived health information on various diseases [19-21], the quality of IBD-related information on websites has not yet been reported.\nThe Kruskal-Wallis test with the post hoc Dunn\u2019s test was used to compare the DISCERN scores between subgroups. Spearman\u2019s rank correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the correlation between the DISCERN scores and the total number of JAMA benchmarks achieved. To evaluate the relationship between the order of appearance in the Google search engine results and the ranking according to the total DISCERN scores, Spearman\u2019s rank correlation coefficient was used. The interobserver variability for the total DISCERN scores was calculated using an intraclass score. All analyses were performed using the SPSS version 18.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).\nAmong 180 websites, 42 websites were duplicates (Fig. 1); therefore, a total of 138 websites were ultimately selected for analysis, of which 70 websites were related to CD and 68 were related to UC. These websites were assigned to five groups according to website type. Supportive sites were the most common type (64 websites, 46.4%), followed by alternative sites (30 websites, 21.7%). The number of alternative sites in the Naver search engine results was significantly higher than that obtained using Google (39.6% [21/53] vs. 9.3% [4/43], p = 0.006) (Table 1). Two certified gastroenterologists independently evaluated the selected websites using the DISCERN instrument and the JAMA benchmarks. The intraclass score for the sum of the total DISCERN scores determined by the two researchers was 0.948 (95% confidence interval, 0.927 to 0.963), which indicates a nearly perfect agreement between the two researchers.\nThe median score of the websites based on the DISCERN instrument was 32 (interquartile range [IQR], 25 to 47) out of 80 indicating a poor overall quality of information. Box plots for the total DISCERN scores according to website type are shown in Fig. 2A. There were significant differences in the total DISCERN scores among the groups. The institutional sites had the highest median score, whereas the alternative sites had the lowest median score. In addition, the institutional, charitable, and commercial sites each scored significantly higher than the score for the alternative sites (p < 0.001), while there was no difference between the supportive and alternative sites. We presented the median total DISCERNS score values among the websites types in Supplementary Table 2. The total DISCERN score per search engine is shown in Fig. 2B. Google had the highest median score, followed by Daum and Naver. The post hoc test revealed a significant difference in the DISCERN scores between Google and Naver (p = 0.028).\nThe proportion of websites meeting each JAMA benchmark is shown in Fig. 3. \u201cCurrency\u201d was the most frequently achieved benchmark among all the websites (63%), followed by \u201cauthorship,\u201d \u201cdisclosure,\u201d and \u201cattribution\u201d (47.1%, 31.9%, and 11.6%, respectively). The average number of JAMA benchmarks achieved per website type was the highest for the institutional sites and the lowest for the alternative sites (Fig. 4). In addition, both the institutional and charitable sites had significantly higher average scores than the alternative sites (p < 0.001), while there was no difference between the supportive and alternative sites. A strong relationship was identified between the total DISCERN score and the total number of JAMA benchmarks achieved (r = 0.687, p < 0.001), as shown in Fig. 5. There was no significant difference between UC and CD websites according to the median total DISCERN score and JAMA benchmarks (data not shown).\nThere was no significant correlation between the ranking for quality according to the total DISCERN score and the order of appearance in the Google search engine results (CD, r = \u20130.174, p = 0.359; UC, r = \u20130.263, p = 0.160) (Fig. 6). For CD, the website that had the highest DISCERN score was 9th in the list of search results (Fig. 6A). In the case of UC, the website that achieved the highest DISCERN score was 24th in the list of search results (Fig. 6B).\nThis study showed that there was a wide variation in the quality of IBD-related health information obtained from Korean websites. Using the DISCERN and JAMA assessment tools, we found that the institutional sites had the highest quality and that the alternative sites had the lowest. Notably, the order of appearance of the website in the search engine result list had no correlation with the quality ranking, which hinders patients in accessing the accurate Internet information related to IBD. To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the quality of IBD-related information on the Internet in an Asian country.\nThe median overall DISCERN score of the websites was 32 (IQR, 25 to 47) out of 80, which indicates a disappointing level of quality. Previous Western studies have revealed that the total DISCERN score of the websites regarding IBD was 42.2 to 48, which is higher than that of our study [10,12]. Because these studies evaluated websites written in the English language using English-language search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing, a direct comparison with our result may not be possible. However, the composition of the website types in these studies was different from ours. In the study by van der Marel et al. [10], the number of institutional sites (34%) was much higher than the number of alternative sites (8%). That study also showed that the institutional sites scored significantly higher than the alternative sites, which is consistent with our study. In contrast, we found that only 13.8% of the sites consisted of institutional sites and 21.7% consisted of alternative sites. Therefore, we can assume that the relatively high proportion of alternative websites in our study may have contributed to the low overall quality score.\nThe results of the quality assessment using the JAMA benchmarks was similar to that using the DISCERN instrument. The alternative and supportive sites had a significantly lower total number of achieved JAMA benchmarks than did the institutional and charitable sites. The institutional sites had the highest total number of achieved JAMA benchmarks. The superior quality of institutional sites may have been because most of these sites (84.2%, 16 out of 19 sites) were academic websites such as those of university hospitals. There have been no prior studies on the quality assessment of IBD websites using the JAMA benchmarks. In our study, we found a strong relationship between the total DISCERN score and the total number of JAMA benchmarks achieved (r = 0.687, p < 0.001) (Fig. 5). Therefore, the simple JAMA benchmark assessment may also be used to evaluate the quality of IBD websites.\nThe quality of the IBD-related information on the Internet did not correlate with the order of appearance in the list of search results. Most Internet users click on a site appearing on the first page of search engine results, and very few Internet users are likely to click on any results that appear past the third page [22]. Therefore, the quality of the websites that are high on the search result list should be of better quality. The search algorithms of Google analyze hundreds of different factors in an attempt to uncover the best information the Internet can offer [23]. Unfortunately, these algorithms do not take into account the quality of health information. In our study, consistent with the results of previous studies [10,11], the order of appearance of websites on IBD in the Google search results did not correlate with the quality of the sites according to the DISCERN instrument. An accreditation system for health information on the Internet regarding IBD is required to enable Internet users to obtain high-quality information.\nNotably, we found that the quality of information on IBD is different among search engines. The quality of information obtained using Naver, the most popular search engine in Korea, is significantly inferior to that obtained with Google when assessed using the DISCERN instrument. This difference might be explained by the different website compositions among the search engines. The Naver search engine displayed a significantly greater number of alternative sites, which had the lowest quality of information, than did Google (39.6% vs. 9.3%, p = 0.006) (Table 1). Furthermore, most of the alternative websites listed in the Naver results (80%, 17 out of 21, data not shown) focused on the advertisement and were not for the purpose of providing appropriate information on IBD. Internet users should be aware of this difference when using search engines to obtain information on IBD.\nThis study has several potential limitations. First, our study only included websites searched at a certain point in time. Therefore, our results may not represent the entire number of websites available over time. Future studies should assess the quality of information on the Internet regarding IBD over time. Second, only the top 30 websites were selected from the results of each search engine, but high-quality websites may exist well beyond the third page of results. Third, we did not evaluate the readability of the websites. Readability is essential for the general public to receive health information through the Internet and should not exceed the 6th grade readability level [24]. The readability level of websites in English can be calculated using the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level readability score [25] or the Coleman-Liau Readability Index score [26]. However, there is no validated tool to calculate the readability level of Korean-language websites. As evaluating the quality of health information on the Internet becomes more important over time, it is necessary to develop an appropriate tool that can calculate the readability level of languages other than English. Finally, we did not evaluate the accuracy of IBD information on websites. Our study focused only on quality of IBD information on websites, and did not evaluate the accuracy of that. However, previous studies have shown that the websites with good quality of IBD information tend to have the good accuracy [9-11].\nIn conclusion, the overall quality of information regarding IBD on the Internet in Korea is not optimal and varies significantly depending not only on website type but also on the search engine used. Websites appearing higher among the search results list are not guaranteed to provide higher quality IBD-related information. An accreditation system for Internet search engines using validated quality assessment tools will allow the recommendation of high-quality websites to the general public and patients.\n1. The quality of information on the Internet for Korean patients with inflammatory bowel disease was insufficient and varied according to the website type and search engine.\n2. The alternative medicine sites had the lowest quality of information, whereas the institutional sites had the highest. The higher search ranking did not guarantee better quality.\n3. Accreditation and quality assurance systems will allow the recommendation of high-quality websites to the general public and patients.\nThe DISCERN instrument\nThe total DISCERN score per website type\nFlow chart for website enrollment.

        "raw_content": "Alex Lifeson on the Idea of \u2018Rush Unplugged': \u2018It Hurts My Head\u2019\nContinuing their press tour in support of Rush's new R40 Live package, Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson recently sat down with Toronto's Q107 to talk about the band's past, present, and future \u2014 and answer fan questions about a wide variety of topics, including whether they could ever see recording a Rush Unplugged album.\nWhile Lee and Lifeson were both too polite to dismiss the idea outright, it seems pretty clear that the possibility is fairly remote. \"I don't know. I've often tried to picture that, but it hurts my head when I do,\" said Lifeson. \"So I stop thinking about it.\"\n\"There's probably a very small percentage of songs that would translate well to an 'unplugged,'\" argued Lee. \"The majority of our songs are pretty insane.\"\nTalk eventually turned to whether the band members regret recording any of the songs in the Rush catalog, and for Lee and Lifeson, the obvious choice was a track that started with drummer Neil Peart: \"Tai Shan,\" from 1987's Hold Your Fire. \"It's just a song Neil wrote about his experiences in China, and we were all excited for him and we sort of supported the idea,\" explained Lee, \"but it's not one that stands the test of time very well.\"\nThe duo also credited Peart's predecessor, original Rush drummer John Rutsey, with the family connection that led to the band coming up with its name. \"It was John's brother, I think, who originally suggested it,\" recalled Lifeson. \"I think it was his brother Bill Rutsey that suggested Rush. It was short, to the point, it had that cool connotation, you know. We said, 'Yeah, okay.'\"\nThe fan Q&A section is accompanied by a more traditional interview, which finds Lee and Lifeson touching on a variety of topics \u2014 and reiterating that they wish they could have played more dates on the R40 tour, which seems likely to be their last. You can check out that portion of the conversation below.\nWatch Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson&apos;s Interview with Q107\nNext: 10 Facts You May Not Know About Rush\nSource: Alex Lifeson on the Idea of \u2018Rush Unplugged': \u2018It Hurts My Head\u2019\nFiled Under: Alex Lifeson, rush",

        "title": "Silent Night, Deadly Night 5 (1992)",
        "raw_content": "Production Company: Still Silent Films, Inc.\nDirector: Martin Kitrosser (Man of Her Dreams, Daddy's Girl)\nStarring: William Thorne, Jane Higginson, Van Quattro and Mickey Rooney as Joe Petto\nMmm Mmm: Good\n\"There is No GOD!\"\nIn 1982 Paul Caimi and Michael Hickey had a vision: They wanted to make the most twistedly sadistic, and morally disgusting film masterpiece about the Christmas season the world had ever seen. It took them six months to write this ground-breaking script, but it was well worth the time. Unfortunately this script was light-years before its time and the duo had trouble getting any kind of financial support. Luckily for them they ran across Charles E. Sellier Jr. (best known for his productions of \"Historical Search for Noah\" and \"Historical Search for Jesus Christ\"). Chuck being the open minded sick fuck that he was, took on this beast of a script and began to film what was at the time called Slayride. The filming took a year and a half and was filled with problems from heart attacks, to fires, to cult abductions, to enraged baboons escaping from the local town enraged baboon research facility. Three deaths and countless injuries plagued the cast and crew but through Chuck's leadership they finally wrapped filming in the summer of 1984 and the film released that winter. Though Paul Caimi and Michael Hickey never got an opportunity to write again (due to a freak encounter with three male porn stars and a Billy-goat which left Caimi dead and Hickey never heard from again) they left their mark on the film community with Silent Night, Deadly Night... God rest their soul.\nBut why are you telling us about their struggle if this is a review for Silent Night Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker? Because I want you to understand why Paul Caimi is rolling over in his grave with disgust. After all their toil and struggle the glorious name of Silent Night, Deadly Night has been tarnished by Satan himself. Sure, some of you might call him Martin Kitrosser, and others might call him \"Big Daddy\" or \"Big Poppa\", but make no mistake this man is pure evil and needs to be exposed for the wrong doings he has committed against ourselves, Paul Caimi, Michael Hickey, Sgt. Slaughter, and this beautiful country we call America!\nBut Mr. Paul, it's just a movie... Sure kid, the next thing you'll tell me is Vietnam is just a country in southeast Asia, or that red, white, and blue are just colors on cloth and not the colors of the blood that runs through my veins. Now stop snorting those goofers and listen up son... because I've got something to tell you. Silent Night, Deadly Night 5 goes against everything that's right in this world; everything American. Allow me to explain:\nThe film begins with young Derek walking in on his mother and father having mad caveman sex and he looks ashamed. So he goes downstairs and finds a package on his front porch clearly marked \"Do Not Open Until Xmas\". But what does this bastard child do? He opens it. His father comes down in the process and shouts at his son and sends him off to bed. Now let me stop right here. Ten minutes in and we already have enough erroneous errors to warrant a grammatical failure. When a child sees his parents having sex he shouldn't be ashamed. Disgusted maybe, but not ashamed. Sex is a beautiful and spiritual way of two people expressing their love for each other. The kid then goes downstairs and opens a mysterious gift found on the door step despite the fact that it clearly reads \"Do Not Open Until Xmas\". This might be excusable. The kid may not be familiar with the term: \"Xmas\". Due to poor upbringing he may not have been taught to associate Christmas with Xmas. However the boy shouldn't be down there in the first place taking bizarre gifts off his front porch at such an hour of the night. But once again that can be attributed to poor upbringing. It is obvious that the Derek comes from a shitty home when his father comes in shouting at him to go to bed. I'm surprised he didn't just smash the kid with a board with a nail in it. Words can hurt just as much as hands. This film teaches parents to discipline their children in this way. Why do you think we have gangs of children with socks and rags on their heads? It's because gangs provide a more nurturing family environment than the one that is taught to be accepted through films like Silent Night, Deadly Night 5. However, the father gets his just desserts when he decides to play with Derek's new toy himself. The small toy electrocutes him in a wretched display of poorly crated electric beams. The mother looks on in horror as does the boy.\nNormally that would've been it. The tape would have been pulled out, broken, and taken back to the video store with a note expressing our disdain and requesting that they not order a new copy. Unfortunately... Night of the Creeps has just recently adopted a new policy to watch every film reviewed in its entirety. So we continued.\nIn the days that followed Derek's mother takes him to Joe Petto's (Japetto) toy store to purchase a toy. While he is there he is accosted by Joe's son Pino(cchio). Pino tries to pawn off a shitty toy of a Larry the Larva that looks more like Larry the Log of Shit. The kid gets scared, he and his mother leave, and Joe beats Pino in the way that only a has-been child actor can. As the story progresses it is revealed that the freak show bastard son Pino is giving out toys which are meant to kill. In fact in the only redeeming scene in the film Larry the Larva shoots through the eye of a poor unsuspecting motel manager. More plot twists show up in the form of Derek really being a bastard kid of some shopping mall Santa Claus and Joe Petto's kid Pino being really a machine (and not a real boy like we had thought). Pino abducts Derek and decides that Derek's mother is going to be his new mom. What follows is quite possibly one of the stupidest scenes in film history. Pino bends Derek's mother over and begins to air fuck her, because he wants him to be his mother. He can't really fuck her because he has the body of a mannequin and therefore, no dick. So he just pretends until Derek's derelict Santa Claus father shows up and saves the day. Pino's killed and everyone lives happily ever after... except us. Now we must live with this pain for the rest of our days, and are going to be forced to spend half our paychecks on therapy for the next twelve years.\nIn case you haven't noticed I didn't like this movie. It highly offended me in a way which made me feel dirty inside. I hate this film with an unbridled fury which is normally reserved for Nazi's, Library Bathroom Sex, Saved by the Bell: The New Class, and the McLean Deluxe. Imagine if you asked your best friend to pass you the salt and instead of passing you the salt he or she took a claw hammer and smashed your teeth in. Just the idea hurts, doesn't it? Take that feeling, multiply it by infinity and take it to the depths of hell and you even begin to fathom what I'm talking about.\nMr. Paul: \"Remember that afterschool special \"Good Touch, Bad Touch\"? This movie will touch you in a way you will never be able to wash off.\"\nZ-man: \"This rancid turd deserves to be butt fucked by heavy machinery. Yank My Doodle, Mickey Rooney! May your twisted little child molesting ass roast in hell for all eternity! \"\nEl Santo: \"Can you say DROID....that's right, as in what's been up your ass all night...or as in what makes up the killer in this holiday flick. Do yourself a favor and suck a dick, it'll be better than this crap!!!\"\nEagle Te: \"Without a doubt one of the worst movies I have EVER seen...that's right folks, worse than The Craft! Everyone of the kills suck and the only reason to watch this is for the mind boggeling revelation of the toymaker's son as a cheap ass Go Bot android. Watching it try to fuck Mom in order to be a good little boy brought back some of the more bitter memories from Te's nest...ugghhhh.....NaNaNaNa!\"\nGeneral Zod: \"Pend x Pend.33\"\nSILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT 5:\nYE OLD SHIT LISTE INDUCTEE (1/11/99)",

        "title": "Kim-Trump summit after Nov. 6-INSIDE Korea JoongAng Daily",
        "raw_content": "Kim-Trump summit after Nov. 6\nU.S. president claims \u2018incredible progress\u2019 over past three months\nU.S. President Donald Trump said Tuesday his second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will take place after the U.S. midterm elections on Nov. 6, with several venues being discussed.\n\u201cIt\u2019ll be after the midterms,\u201d Trump told reporters on Air Force One flying to Iowa for a rally about his second meeting with Kim. \u201cI just can\u2019t leave now.\u201d\nEarlier that day, Trump said in the White House Oval Office that \u201cthree or four different locations\u201d are being discussed as the venue for the second North-U.S. summit, likely other than Singapore where the first summit was held, and that the \u201ctiming won\u2019t be too far away.\u201d\nU.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had a \u201cvery good meeting\u201d with Kim in Pyongyang Sunday, said Trump, adding that \u201cpart of the reason\u201d for his top diplomat\u2019s trip to North Korea was for \u201csetting that up.\u201d\nWashington, Pyongyang and the inter-Korean border village of Panmunjom have been named as possible options for a second summit between Trump and Kim, and they were also mentioned ahead of the first summit. Both sides would generally prefer holding a meeting on their own soil.\nBut there is growing speculation that the North-U.S. summit could be held again in a third country, possibly a European city such as Vienna or Geneva, especially as Trump is scheduled after midterms to visit Paris for the Nov. 11 commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the armistice that ended fighting in World War I.\nFurthermore, Trump\u2019s remark on Air Force One that he couldn\u2019t \u201cleave now\u201d suggests that the location of the summit may be outside the United States.\nTrump avoided answering if the next summit will take place in the United States by responding, \u201cI don\u2019t want to embarrass anybody by asking.\u201d\nHe called it a \u201ctwo-way street,\u201d pointing out, \u201cI think eventually we\u2019re going to have lots of meetings on U.S. soil and on their soil, by the way.\u201d\nEven his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida could be used to meet with Kim at some point, Trump pointed out, stating, \u201cHe\u2019d probably like that. I\u2019d like that, too.\u201d\nTrump also addressed concerns about delays in denuclearization talks since the June 12 summit held on Sentosa Island in Singapore and said, \u201cI think the speed is amazing. You have no nuclear tests. You have no rockets. And we have a very good relationship with Chairman Kim, which is very important.\u201d\nLamenting the negative media coverage of his North Korea negotiations, Trump said that there has been \u201cincredible progress\u201d over the past three months and stressed the \u201cimportance of the first meeting.\u201d\nHe underscored, \u201cPoint number one; they\u2019ve agreed to denuclearization. And they continue to agree.\u201d In the meanwhile, Washington hasn\u2019t removed its \u201cvery big sanctions\u201d on the North, he added.\n\u201cI\u2019d love to remove them, but we have to get something for doing that,\u201d said Trump.\nTrump pointed out that there are investors interested in North Korea, again projecting a vision of economic prosperity for the country in the future, and said, \u201cI think that the country of North Korea is going to be a very successful country. I think it\u2019s going to be incredibly economically successful.\u201d\nHe went on to say that other countries, entrepreneurs and banks are \u201ccalling wanting to go there and wanting to invest\u201d and that \u201cat some point when Chairman Kim makes that decision, I think he\u2019s going to unleash something that\u2019s going to be spectacular.\u201d\nHe cited this prospect as one of the reasons he is \u201chaving very successful conversations\u201d with Kim, adding, \u201cI think he wants to get on with it.\u201d\nTrump\u2019s remarks came as he announced U.S. Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley will be stepping down from the position at the end of the year. As top U.S. diplomat in the United Nations, Haley has been behind three stringent sanctions packages in the UN Security Council against the North since last year, giving teeth to Washington\u2019s maximum pressure campaign.\nU.S. Secretary of State Pompeo said upon returning to Washington from his four-country East Asia trip Tuesday, \u201cWe can now see a path where we will achieve [our] ultimate goal, which is the full and final verified denuclearization of North Korea.\u201d\nHeather Nauert, spokesperson of the U.S. State Department, said on Tuesday in a briefing that the White House will ultimately announce the timing of the Kim-Trump summit, adding, \u201cThere are a lot of details that are involved in pulling together a summit of that magnitude.\u201d\nShe continued, \u201cWe need to find a place that both countries can get to. We have to compare schedules.\u201d Parties involved would include not only President Trump, Kim, but also Pompeo and John Bolton, the U.S. national security adviser.\nInfrastructure is another factor, she added, stating the venue would have to be able to \u201caccommodate 5,000 journalists,\u201d as at the Singapore summit. Nauert added that Washington is \u201cpleased\u201d that Kim Jong-un invited international inspectors into its Punggye-ri n nuclear test site, supposedly demolished in late May, \u201cto confirm that it\u2019s been irreversibly dismantled.\u201d\nStephen Biegun, the U.S. special representative for North Korea who traveled to Pyongyang with Pompeo last weekend, \u201clooks forward to having follow-on conversations with his counterpart,\u201d added Nauert, \u201cto start intensifying discussions on some of those four pillars that were laid out in the Singapore summit.\u201d\nHis counterpart is seen to be North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui, who held a closed-door trilateral meeting with Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Kong Xuanyou and Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Igor Morgulov in Moscow Tuesday. North Korea could have discussed a second North-U.S. summit with its traditional allies and sought their support in future easing of UN Security Council sanctions.",

        "title": "When Older Tech Is Better | K. E. Colombini - The Laptop Review",
        "raw_content": "When Older Tech Is Better | K. E. Colombini\nIn an age when every piece of writing shared on the internet requires a visual image, generic stock photography comes in handy. When one reads articles online about the subject of writing, for example, one often sees glamour shots of old tools now seldom used, like a typewriter or a fountain pen\u2014as if one wrote a blog post or tweet with an Olivetti or Mont Blanc.\nThese images always evoke happy memories for me as a traditionalist. In my college days, I started with a manual portable typewriter I had acquired in high school, a serviceable machine that had seen me through two hectic years as the high school\u2019s newspaper editor. I think my parents picked it up for me at Sears or J.C. Penney.\nWhen it finally broke down, I switched to a Brother electronic dot-matrix typewriter with a small screen that showed a few words and allowed corrections before printing them on the sheet. It did not last long, and as I started graduate school I found a decades-old Remington, heavy and built to survive aerial bombardment\u2014which it probably had at some far-off bivouac during World War II. In one semester of graduate-level English courses I knocked out more papers than in my previous four years combined. The Remington also punched out a few angry letters to the editor and my first freelance articles.\nWhen I became a newspaper reporter a short time later, I got my first laptop: the classic Tandy TRS-80 \u201cTrash 80\u201d from Radio Shack. It ran on standard AA batteries and could transfer stories via phone modem from anywhere to the newsroom.\nThat was then. I may be a traditionalist, but I\u2019m no Luddite. I love gadgets, especially the sleek rectangular touchscreens on tablets and smartphones. Once, seeking a promotion, I was forced by my cruel boss to take a typing speed test\u2014on an old electric typewriter, years after I had abandoned them for computers and keyboards. I failed miserably, but got the promotion. I would have done better had I taken my first editor\u2019s advice when I was a young reporter, and learned how to touch type. Yet typewriters still hold a fascination for me\u2014and for others, apparently, as they are ubiquitous props in cafes and bookstores.\nTom Hanks collects typewriters, having more than 250, and wrote a well-received collection of short stories around the typewriter theme (2017\u2019s Uncommon Type: Some Stories). Hanks and a few other enthusiasts, such as the musician John Mayer, the historian David McCullough, and the actor and playwright Sam Shepard, were featured in a documentary that year, California Typewriter. Hanks has written that there are several reasons to own a typewriter, though \u201cnone of them are ease or speed.\u201d\nIn my early days of writing, I preferred to write in long-hand before typing out the final product. Somewhere in a box in my garage is a thick manila envelope with the hand-written manuscript of my long-forgotten and easily-forgettable bachelor\u2019s degree thesis. It is a sheaf of yellow-legal-pad paper scrawled about with ink from a small selection of fountain pens I had at the time.\nIn a 2015 essay in The Atlantic, Josh Giesbrecht wrote about \u201cHow the Ballpoint Pen Killed Cursive.\u201d Just as Hanks asserts that the IBM Selectric killed the manual typewriter, it\u2019s easy to conclude that the Bic killed the fountain pen, as well as cursive. \u201cPerhaps it\u2019s not digital technology that hindered my handwriting, but the technology that I was holding as I put pen to paper,\u201d Giesbrecht writes. \u201cFountain pens want to connect letters. Ballpoint pens need to be convinced to write, need to be pushed into the paper rather than merely touch it.\u201d\nIt\u2019s easy to understand dislike of the fountain pen, especially with a lot of good alternatives beyond the Bic. For years, I used my father-in-law\u2019s Parker Sonnet rollerball, and it was terrific. Fountain pens leak, they dry up, their ink smears, gets on your fingers and runs out. The ink also soaks through paper, even in the trendy Moleskine notebooks.\nDespite these downsides, fountain pens force one to slow down and write more thoughtfully. When I use a fountain pen, my horrid handwriting improves. A great discovery was Pilot\u2019s inexpensive line of disposable fountain pens, called the Varsity, and its Metropolitan series of less expensive metal fountain pens. Both the typewriter and the fountain pen slow writers down, which can be a good thing.\nI was at a professional development conference a few years back when the keynote speaker, a woman in her early fifties, remarked on how younger adults differed from those a little older. She invited a twentysomething up on stage and asked her a simple question. \u201cWhat time is it?\u201d The girl was perplexed and embarrassed. She had left her phone back at her seat.\nThe speaker was arguing in favor of wristwatches, and the victim\u2019s generation had pretty much stopped wearing them at that point, relying instead on their smartphones. A few years later, the young professionals would all be wearing health-tracking watches such as the FitBit, or the fancier smartwatches from Apple or Android.\nOne year in college, my girlfriend (now my wife) generously gave me a pocket watch. It was a great gift, and years later she gave me a second one. The pocket watch provides the right perspective in a fast-paced world. You will always have the correct time available to you, but it will take a little more work than tapping a screen or flicking your wrist.\nLike the typewriter and the fountain pen, the pocket watch slows us down a little and ritualizes a mundane moment. All of these tools are often designed with a focus on real beauty. A laptop is more practical than a typewriter, but it is less beautiful. The same could be said for a ballpoint pen and an Apple Watch. Interestingly, wristwatches have recently gotten larger, closer to the traditional size of a pocket watch.\nTo use Tom Hanks\u2019s words, human life today is all about ease and speed. These three old things\u2014the typewriter, the fountain pen, and the pocket watch\u2014rebel against this utilitarian mindset. They each force us, to a point, to pause rather than react; to think, rather than do. In a world fixated on mindfulness and enjoying life more slowly, they beckon us to realize that not all newer inventions are better in all ways.\nK.E. Colombini writes from St. Louis.",

        "raw_content": "Men in Peril and the Women Who Love Them\nFor many women living in the UAE, any day their partner goes to work might realistically end in tragedy. Meet three tough wives who have weathered the stress of their husbands\u2019 dangerous jobs and gained a stronger relationship for it.\nKasey Conrad, age 52, married 24 years to Dennis, age 49, air traffic controller\nDennis Conrad\u2019s job of Air Traffic Control Specialist\u2014keeping planes from crashing using radar, verbal contact, and technical wizardry\u2014is famous for causing stress. This demanding occupation, however, became even more nerve-racking when Dennis took on a fourteen month stint at KAIA, the international airport of Kabul.\nDespite Afghanistan\u2019s ongoing conflict, Dennis\u2019 wife Kasey didn\u2019t worry about her husband\u2019s safety when he first arrived in the tumultuous country. \u201cThere hadn\u2019t been any major incidences at or near the airport for several years,\u201d recalls Kasey, who met Dennis in 1983 in Houston, Texas. \u201cUpon arriving at KAIA, however, the men were all issued helmets, flack vests, and oxygen masks. The fact that this equipment was necessary worried me. Also, the job itself is more challenging in Afghanistan because there is very little technological aid and no radar.\u201d Even worse, the swarms of military aircraft get priority, so air traffic controllers have to be extra diligent to keep commercial aircraft clear of bombing missions.\nKasey\u2019s fears soon became well founded. \u201cAfter two quiet months, things went rapidly down hill, beginning with a suicide bombing at the airport\u2019s front gate,\u201d says Kasey, a Rehabilitation Therapist. \u201cEveryone working at KAIA was required to live at the airport, so Dennis\u2019 housing was literally between a runway and a helicopter pad.\u201d As attacks on the base became increasingly frequent, Kabul was becoming a much more dangerous place in general. \u201cTo get or post mail, the controllers had to drive ten miles to the U.S. military base without military escort in an armoured car in full safety dress, a drive that could take up to an hour one way.\u201d\nOver the next several months, the attacks on the airport escalated; the final straw broke the night a mortar shell landed twenty yards from Dennis\u2019 barracks. \u201cDennis and I were having a conversation on the computer when all of the sudden, he was not responding. It was an eerie feeling; for nearly two hours, he couldn\u2019t contact me to let me know he was safe or what had happened,\u201d recalls Kasey. \u201cLuckily, the mortar shell didn\u2019t explode, but that was when we decided it was time to move on.\u201d\nThe silver lining is that, thanks Dennis\u2019 experiences, this American couple now realize how much they truly mean to one another; Dennis, in fact, recently left his job in Kabul to work as an air traffic controller in Abu Dhabi, bringing Kasey from Texas to join him in December. \u201c[Living in Abu Dhabi] gives us a chance to share our lives in another part of the world, safely together.\u201d\nThough Dennis\u2019 job in Afghanistan strengthened the Conrads\u2019 relationship, it evoked mixed feelings in their children, Ali, age 20, and Michael, age 30. \u201cMy daughter missed my husband very much but always kept an optimistic outlook,\u201d says Kasey. \u201cMy son, however, a political science major and a student of the Afghanistan and Iraq situations, was beside himself with worry and would implore Dennis to always wear his flack vest and his helmet.\u201d\nPlenty of contact helped Kasey cope. \u201cI was fortunate enough to be able to communicate with Dennis nearly everyday he was away. It helped to be able to know that, at least in those moments, he was safe. I also do a lot of yoga and meditation,\u201d says Kasey, a former yoga instructor. \u201cI started writing a blog, too; the realization that others were sharing my experience inspired me to share some of the thoughts I was having.\u201d\nSarah Currie, age 34, married 5 years to Steve, age 36, helicopter pilot\nThough many wives have their imaginations to blame for their worries, Sarah Currie knows precisely what sort of danger her husband Steve encounters everyday\u2014she does the same job for a living. Both Sarah and Steve encountered plenty of sticky situations flying with the Royal New Zealand Air Force. \u201cWe flew the Iroquois helicopter, mostly in New Zealand in support of the army, navy, and police doing search and rescue and counter terrorism, then some peace keeping operations over seas which were more dangerous,\u201d recalls Sarah, a twelve year veteran of the RNZAF. \u201cIn East Timor, for example, the rebels had some serious firepower and were supposedly targeting our UN helicopters with things like RPGs and 50 caliber machine guns.\u201d\nNatives of New Zealand, the Curries both currently fly for Aerogulf Services, a Dubai-based helicopter company that contracts mainly to oil and gas companies flying to off-shore oil rigs, a job that involves plenty of risks. \u201cWhen you\u2019re flying near an oil rig, you\u2019re in very close proximity to big metal structures, so if you\u2019re not concentrating and you allow the aircraft to drift only slightly, you\u2019re just seconds away from actually hitting something, like cranes and other metal structures,\u201d says Sarah. \u201cEven worse, some of these rigs have explosives and gas canisters stored onboard, so if the helicopter did collide with the rig and catch on fire, the whole thing could go up.\u201d Considering the number of workers who live on the rigs, one helicopter crash could potentially end the lives of hundreds.\nDespite the risks, Sarah says she doesn\u2019t worry too much. \u201cI know that Steve\u2019s a very good pilot because I\u2019ve flown with him myself. Unless something very drastic happens, he should be able to get the aircraft on the ground, so it\u2019s not very likely that something would happen to him,\u201d reassures Sarah. \u201cIf he had to drive to work every day on Sheikh Zayed Road, I would probably worry more than if he flew out to the oil rigs every day.\u201d\nWhich is not to say that Sarah doesn\u2019t care. \u201cIf something were to happen to him, it would devastate my entire life,\u201d says Sarah. \u201cWe\u2019ve been together for ten years now, and I can\u2019t imagine life without him. The good news is that we\u2019ve just had our first child, who looks exactly like Steve, so if something were to happen, Steve wouldn\u2019t just fade away\u2014I\u2019d have a way to remember him.\u201d\nThe perks of Steve and Sarah\u2019s jobs especially outweigh the dangers for their son, one year old Will. \u201cWe work opposite shifts so that generally, there\u2019s always one of us home with William and, because we don\u2019t work too many hours, we still get lots of time off together,\u201d says Sarah, who typically only flies 30 to 40 hours a month. \u201cIf we had \u2018normal\u2019 jobs, between working and fighting the traffic, we\u2019d never get to see Will, so flying has been great for our family life.\u201d\nEven better is the positive effect the job has had on their relationship. \u201cFlying, for all the danger, actually makes us closer because we can talk about it as colleagues, not just as husband and wife,\u201d says Sarah. \u201cWe have a lot of respect for each other and it\u2019s developed our friendship as well because we\u2019re not just a couple, we\u2019re also really good work mates.\u201d\nSt\u00e9phanie Goldman, age 36, married 4 years to Andrew, age 41, oil consultant\nThough Andrew Goldman\u2019s job renting drilling tools to oil companies rarely involves much danger, the lengths he has to go through to get to work are enough to cause his wife St\u00e9phanie, a high school French teacher, considerable worry. \u201cOnce while flying out of Santa Cruz, Bolivia, Andrew nearly died in a crash while taking off from the airport. The plane banked too hard at a low altitude,\u201d recalls St\u00e9phanie, who hales from southwest France. \u201cSomehow the pilots got control of the aircraft, but everyone thought they were going to die.\u201d And for good reason\u2014another plane recently crashed at the same airport with the same problem; this time, the pilots failed to regain control.\nEven scarier than the \u00fcber-budget airlines Andrew sometimes flies are some of the destinations his job has taken him; one such trip very nearly ended in Andrew\u2019s murder. \u201cAndrew and his colleagues were once attacked by people living in the Niger Delta while they were driving from Port Harcourt to BeniCity,\u201d says St\u00e9phanie, who has lived all over the world, including two years in Abu Dhabi. As they drove, would-be thieves threw nail-studded boards in the road, flattening two of Andrew\u2019s tires.\nAfter nearly crashing the car, Andrew stopped and two men came out of the jungle. They pointed guns at Andrew and his Nigerian colleagues, demanding money and everything in the car. While Andrew\u2019s colleagues argued with the bandits, more and more armed men emerged from the jungle. Andrew (who still plays rugby at full-throttle despite his age) decided that he was going to change one of the tires\u2014if the robbers meant to shoot, they would have to shoot him in the back. \u201cAfter Andrew changed the tire he got back in the car and waited. Eventually, the thieves backed off long enough for all of them to escape.\u201d\nThough this story is not an isolated one, St\u00e9phanie appreciates the perspective her husband\u2019s perilous job brings to their relationship. \u201cEvery time Andrew goes, I suffer; I realize how much I love him and everything he does for our daughter and me. We cannot get bored with each other and when he comes back, it is like everything is new again,\u201d says St\u00e9phanie, mother of twenty month old Julia, for whom the distance is just as hard. \u201cI believe it is going to get harder and harder as the kids grow older, but for now, he spends lots of amazing quality time with us when he can, and every time Daddy comes home is a big party.\u201d\nAs coping mechanisms go, St\u00e9phanie\u2019s is a simple but effective one. \u201cI just pray and ask my grandma to say a prayer as well because I know that God listens to her more than me,\u201d says St\u00e9phanie, who is due to give birth to a son soon. \u201cAlso, when our daughter was born, I asked my husband to really take care of himself and be careful because he has new responsibilities in life. But he is such a great dad that he is more careful now than ever.\u201d\n\u201cI believe my husband will continue this job until he is 80 because he loves the adrenaline and the challenge of the job and always has terrific stories to tell when he comes back,\u201d says St\u00e9phanie of her rugged American spouse. \u201cI respect his personality: intense, dangerous, and fierce. I let him do what makes him happy, even if I have to pray that God sends me my husband in one piece every time he leaves us. Our little family is certainly different than most in the world, but we cherish each other and never take each other for granted.\u201d\nDr Kennon Rider, Professor and Director of Family Community Services at Michigan State University, Dubai, says that when loved ones are at risk, wives and children can cope with that stress using the BASIC method:\nBeliefs and Values: What you believe and value can moderate your feelings, so spiritual or religious values can support you in tough times. Foster beliefs that are hopeful.\nAffect: Feelings such as anger, fear, and sorrow need to be acknowledged, but they should not take over. Try to own and express these emotions, but work to control how much they affect you.\nSocial: Routines, family, and friends are very important as they offer positive support during times of stress. Play and exercise also buffer stress and allow time to process threatening information and manage it.\nImagination: Imaginations can run wild creating \u201cworst case\u201d scenarios, but imaginations can also lead to hopeful visions. Visualize what life will be like when the potential threat is finished.\nCognition: Logic and rational thinking can also help you consider just how realistic the danger is. Also, recognize that you need a coping strategy, rather than simply allowing your emotions to run wild.",

Opening is LA-based indie band Slow Hollows (Danger Collective Records). $14, 8 p.m.\nApocalipstick by Cherry Glazerr\nAlso tonight, The Milk Run has Young and Heartless (Hopeless Records) with Kississippi (Soft Speak Records) and Museum Mouth (Equal Vision). $10, 9 p.m.\nPopcorn Fish Guinea Pig by Museum Mouth\nLive Review: Orenda Fink, Domestica; Kasher track part of Polyvinyl singles club; Cully joins Beach Slang\u2026\nCategory: Blog,Reviews \u2014 Tags: Beach Slang, Cully Symington, Domestica, Orenda Fink, Planned Parenthood, Polyvinyl, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 1:50 pm December 13, 2016\nOrenda Fink at The Waiting Room, Dec. 9, 2016.\nNice crowd at last Friday night\u2019s Mobilize Omaha event at The Waiting Room. Booths were set up throughout the club where local non-profit agencies told their stories and asked for volunteers. These are strange times we live in; uncertain times. No doubt non-profits will play a more important role if (or, more likely, when) the government turns its back on those in need.\nOrenda Fink, who was the night\u2019s final scheduled performer, talked about how important Planned Parenthood is not only for reproductive health services, but also as a provider of basic women\u2019s health services. The agency is constantly under attack; and those attacks will only increase as our country turns a darker shade of red in the coming weeks. If you have the cash, by all means, give what you can to Planned Parenthood, who will likely see its funding cut-off as the new administration takes over the White House. Strange, sad times indeed.\nIt\u2019s easy to forget that Orenda, who\u2019s involved in a number of projects (High Up (who you can see Thursday night at Slowdown Jr.) and Closeness (with Todd Fink) immediately come to mind) is a one of the city\u2019s hallmark solo performers. She proved that again Friday. Standing alone on stage with her electric guitar Orenda belted out a set of that included early solo material, Azure Ray songs, and a few covers including tunes by Harry Nilsson (\u201cEverybody\u2019s Talkin'\u201d) and David Bowie (an aching version of \u201cLazarus\u201d).\nDomestica at The Waiting Room, Dec. 9, 2016.\nLike I said, Orenda was the last scheduled performer, to be followed by a \u201cspecial guest.\u201d Turns out that special guest was Lincoln power-punk trio Domestica. Heidi, Jon and Pawl took their places and proceeded to blow the crowd away.\nUnfortunately, unaware that they would cap off an evening of mostly somber indie/folk music, my other half didn\u2019t bring earplugs (whereas I never leave home without them). She pulled the hood of her winter coat over her head in a vain effort to block the thunderous power of Doemstica in full flight, but to avail, and we ended up leaving after their first anthem. Next time, Heidi and Co\u2026\nThese updates at Lazy-i may be a bit unpredictable for the next few weeks as I slog through a busy holiday season, which also happens to be a frantic year-end time at work. I\u2019ll post whenever there\u2019s a crack of light in my schedule.\nA couple news bits:\nPolyvinyl Records is launching another \u201cSingles\u201d series, wherein subscribers can receive a year\u2019s worth of 7-inches mailed directly to their doors by the likes of Beach Slang, Japanese Breakfast, Modern Baseball, Twin Peaks, Joyce Manor, Jay Som, Diet Cig, Mothers, Owen, Ra Ra Riot, Sonny & The Sunsets and Saddle Creek Records artist Tim Kasher of Cursive and The Good Life fame.\nAll the singles were recorded on a 4-track Tascam cassette recorder to capture that classic, made-in-the-bedroom feeling. Subscribe here at the Polyvinyl site for a mere $120. You get some nice chochkes with your purchase.\nBTW, I\u2019ve been asking Saddle Creek to try doing one of these \u201csingles-of-the-month\u201d deals for years. I\u2019d be the first in line. Come on, guys.\nSpeaking of Kasher and Cursive, Cully Symington, former Cursive drummer, has joined Beach Slang, according to SPIN. Cully has pulled drumming duties for a variety of bands including Afghan Whigs and Okkervil River.\nSounds like Beach Slang has been through the ringer this year, according to the SPIN article.\nSo who\u2019s playing drums with Cursive when they inevitably get back together for another album? My vote is for Clint Schnase\u2026\nIt\u2019s \u2018Cyber Monday\u2019; The Good Life, Jake Bellows, Field Mouse, Copeland tonight\u2026\nCategory: Blog \u2014 Tags: Copeland, Cyber Monday, Everybody's Coming Down, The Good Life, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 1:55 pm November 28, 2016\nThe Good Life at Maha Music Festival, 08/15/15. The band plays tonight at fabulous O\u2019Leaver\u2019s.\nIt\u2019s \u201cCyber Monday,\u201d whatever that\u2019s supposed to mean. But who has money left over from this weekend? If you do, a few indie record labels are offering discounts today, including Saddle Creek (20% off). There\u2019s no better time to buy that coveted Bright Eyes box set.\nTonight is one of the year\u2019s biggest Thanksgiving shows that just so happens to be taking place after Thanksgiving. Tim Kasher and his crew from The Good Life are in town tonight, playing at fabulous O\u2019Leaver\u2019s. The band has been on the road supporting their last album, Everybody\u2019s Coming Down (Saddle Creek, 2015).\nSayeth the band via Facebook: \u201cAlmost 3 years ago we decided it was time to write, record and tour after a 7-year break! Tonight is our last show for the foreseeable future! Please come join us one last time as we close the chapter on this incredible journey!\u201d Who\u2019s responsible for all those exclamation points? Roger?\nJoining them is everyone\u2019s favorite Nebraska ex-pat, Jake Bellows, and Philly/NYC band Field Mouse (Top Shelf Records). All for a mere $10. Expect a crowd. The fun starts at 9.\nEpisodic by Field Mouse\nAlso tonight, Florida emo band Copeland (Tooth & Nail) play The Waiting Room with Rae Cassidy. $22, 8:30 p.m.\nSaddle Creek signs Big Thief; Tim Kasher to debut film in Omaha; Athens band Mother tonight\u2026\nCategory: Blog \u2014 Tags: Adrianne Lenker, Big Thief, Mothers, No Resolution, Saddle Creek Records, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 1:42 pm February 16, 2016\nPresumably one of the people in this photo is Tim Kasher filming a scene from his new film No Resolution, which will have its premiere right here in Omaha.\nWatched the Grammy\u2019s last night. Somewhere, David Bowie is spinning in his grave. That, and Courtney Barnett got robbed. But who (other than Kanye) gives a shit about awards, anyway?\nSaddle Creek Records yesterday announced they\u2019ve signed a new act to the label: Brooklyn band Big Thief. The project is helmed by singer/songwriter Adrianne Lenker, whose last known musical product was a solo album that came out in 2014 (embedded below). Pretty stuff.\nNo doubt Big Thief will be a departure from her more winsome acoustic material. The first song off the debut, \u201cMasterpiece\u201d (also embedded below) is a full-out four-on-the-floor indie rocker that reminded me of Centro-Matic and whose video features the band\u2019s adorable dog. I do believe the Creek might have another hit on their hands. When combined with Hop Along, they make a matching set of salt-and-pepper hit makers.\nThe band is out with Eleanor Friedberger right now and will be swinging through Omaha April 3, opening for Yuck at (wait for it) Lookout Lounge. Big Thief also will be at SXSW this year, but alas, I won\u2019t be there to see them (after last year\u2019s nightly riot-squad 6th St. beat-downs I declared myself \u201ctoo old for this shit\u201d).\nCheck out Ms Lenker\u2019s new and old stuff below. Welcome to the big leagues, kid\u2026\nHours Were The Birds by Adrianne Lenker\nSaddle Creek has been keeping themselves pretty busy this year. In addition to that Big Thief release, they\u2019re reissuing Hop Along\u2019s debut, Get Disowned, March 4, and they\u2019ve got a new Thermals album, We Disappear, coming out March 25.\nOver the weekend the Omaha Film festival announced that Tim Kasher\u2019s feature film debut, No Resolution, will be screened at this year\u2019s festival (specifically March 11 at 6 p.m. at Village Point Theater).\nThe debut feature film by songwriter Tim Kasher (Cursive, The Good Life), No Resolution explores the relationship of never-was musician Cary and his newly pregnant fianc\u00e9 Jean as they struggle with concepts of family and settling down. New Year\u2019s Eve becomes a fitting backdrop for the disparity of their combined future; Jean longs for a nice night staying in, but the temptations of a decadent evening are too much for Cary to avoid. The engaged couple reaches a boiling point of anger and resentment as their upstairs neighbors stoke the flames with a raging New Year\u2019s party.\nThe film stars Maura Kidwell of the USA network TV series Sirens, who also appeared in a couple episodes of Chicago Fire. And Erin O\u2019Shea, who in addition to acting in two episodes of The Dreamers TV series is listed in IMDB as having appeared in an episode of Iron Chef America as the sous chef for challenger chef Michael Solomonov!\nMr. Kasher also wrote a soundtrack for the film (He\u2019s a regular John Carpenter!) that he says he\u2019ll be releasing toward the end of the year.\nBig show tonight at fabulous O\u2019Leaver\u2019s. Athens band Mothers headlines. The band was rumored to have been courted by some high-falutin\u2019 labels, including one that\u2019s near and dear to all our hearts. I asked the band via their publicist if that rumor was true, but didn\u2019t hear back (probably because I didn\u2019t ask until last Friday). BTW, Grand Jury Records will have the honor of putting out Mothers\u2019 debut, When You Walk A Long Distance You Are Tired, Feb. 26. Opening tonight is Thick Paint and Eklectica. $7, 9 p.m.\nThe Good Life back in the saddle again (in The Reader); Holly Miranda tonight\u2026\nCategory: Blog,Interviews \u2014 Tags: Everybody's Coming Down, Holly Miranda, The Good Life, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 12:47 pm August 5, 2015\nThe Good Life are back in the saddle again\u2026\nMy feature story/interview with members of The Good Life for The Reader is on newsstands now and online right here. The band talks about their return, their new record (and what it means) and where the band fits in today\u2019s music.\nHe pointed to a number of Omaha bands influenced by \u201990s rock, such as Noah\u2019s Ark Was a Spaceship and See Through Dresses. The difference between The Good Life playing \u201c120-Minutes-style\u201d alternative rock versus those bands, Kasher said, is \u201cwe\u2019re actually from that era.\u201d\nRead the rest here. Everybody\u2019s Coming Down really is a great album and a departure for the band. As described in the article, there\u2019s virtually no acoustic instruments on this record. It rocks more than any past Good Life record and as much as any Cursive album, though it\u2019s not nearly as abrasive. Favorite tracks are \u201cThe Troubadour\u2019s Green Room,\u201d \u201cEverybody,\u201d \u201cHoly Shit\u201d and closer \u201cMidnight Is Upon Us,\u201d but it\u2019s all good, and in some ways, more cohesive than a typical \u201cconcept album.\u201d Read about it.\nBTW, The Good Life kicks off their international tour at this year\u2019s Maha Music Festival Aug. 15. Tickets are still available (for now). Kasher chimes in on Maha in my Over the Edge column in this month\u2019s Reader. Look for it on newsstands, or wait \u2019til the column goes on line later this week\u2026\nHolly Miranda returns to Omaha tonight, this time to The Slowdown. I interviewed Miranda (via email) five years ago in support of a show at The Waiting Room. The inspirational line from that story:\n\u2026Miranda did say how much success in the music business depends on talent and how much depends on lucky breaks and Kanye flukes. \u201cYou\u2019ll need a LOT of both, and a strong sense of self,\u201d she replied. \u201cIf you don\u2019t know who you are in this industry, someone else is going to tell you who you are and they probably won\u2019t get it quite right.\u201d\nNo kidding. Read the rest of story from March 2010 here. Toronto\u2019s Marnie Herald opens. $10, 8 p.m.\nNebraska Folk/Roots Fest announced; new Desa video; new Kasher track; Oquoa, Universe Contest, Tom Waits tonight\u2026\nCategory: Blog \u2014 Tags: Desaparecidos, Nebraska Folk and Roots Festival, Record Store Day, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 1:12 pm April 16, 2015\nThe Nebraska Folk and Roots Festival is July 31-Aug. 1.\nCatching up on some old news\u2026\nLincoln music impresario Jeremy Buckley announced last week the line-up to the 2015 Nebraska Folk and Roots Festival July 31\u2013August 1 at Branched Oak Farm, 15 minutes northwest of Lincoln.\nNote that this is about half of the overall lineup. More touring bands are in the works.\nDesert Noises (Provo)\nKill County (Austin, Detroit, Nebraska)\nEros & the Eschaton (Colorado Springs)\nVictor & Penny (Kansas City)\nThe Way Down Wanderers (Chicago)\nAll Young Girls Are Machine Guns (Omaha)\nBrad Hoshaw & the Seven Deadlies (Omaha)\nJack Hotel (Lincoln)\nLloyd McCarter & the Honky Tonk Revival (Lincoln)\nBud Heavy & the High Lifes (Lincoln)\nThe Bottle Tops (Lincoln)\nMesonjixx (Lincoln)\nEvan Bartels & the Stoney Lonesomes (Lincoln)\nToasted Ponies (Lincoln)\nDr. John Walker (Lincoln)\nSayeth Buckley: \u201cAll access passes will be available online at ticketfly.com and at select retail locations in Lincoln (check www.nebraskafolkandroots.com for locations) for $20 until the overall lineup is announced and at that point tickets will go up to $25 and daily passes will be available for $15. We expect to announce the full lineup including pre-parties in mid-May. The all access pass includes admission to all pre-parties. We will also be offering $50 VIP passes that include an all access pass, 2 meal tickets, 4 drink tickets, a t-shirt, poster and koozie.\u201d\nDesaparecidos released a new rock video yesterday for the song \u201cCity on the Hill,\u201d off their upcoming Epitaph release, Payola, out June 23. Check it. The band also announced a handful of additional tour dates in June.\nThere\u2019s a new Tim Kasher song called \u201cHalf Full\u201d that\u2019s currently streaming on SoundCloud (below). It\u2019s from a Record Store Day split single with Chris Farren of Fake Problems.\nFrom the press release: \u201cTim Kasher (Cursive, The Good Life) and Chris Farren (Fake Problems) wrote and recorded one song each, and then passed only the lyrics and chords to one another. Next, the two recorded their interpretations of the other\u2019s song, never having heard the original. The results are found here. Record Store Day limited edition on gray vinyl.\u201d RSD is going to be fun this year.\nSpeaking of RSD, make sure you check out this week\u2019s podcast for an interview with Mike Fratt about what Homer\u2019s is doing for Record Store Day this Saturday, plus Mike\u2019s take on how this retail holiday is impacting labels and stores. It\u2019s below, and if you\u2019re going to listen to it, you better hurry. The SoundCloud version got taken down because of the Modest Mouse snippet used at the beginning of the podcast!\nOmaha indie band Oquoa starts its April residency at fabulous O\u2019Leaver\u2019s tonight. Joining them is McCarthy Trenching and Universe Contest. This is the first of three April shows at The Club. Now you now have no excuse for not having checked these dudes out. $5, 9:30 p.m.\nAlso tonight there\u2019s a Tom Waits tribute show at The Barley Street Tavern. Among the talent taking their stab at ol\u2019 gravel pit is Brad Hoshaw, Scott Severin, Kait Berreckman, Jeremy Mercy and the Burkum Brothers, plus lots more. $5, 9 p.m.\nLorde covers Bright Eyes; Kasher contributes to comp\u2026\nCategory: Blog \u2014 Tags: Bright Eyes, Conor Oberst, Fourward, Lorde, Old Point Light, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 1:56 pm November 17, 2014\nLots of chatter on the interwebs about Lorde\u2019s cover of Bright Eye\u2019s \u201cThe Ladder Song\u201d on the new Hunger Games movie soundtrack. Your enjoyment of her version will depend on your love of the original, Lorde and the films themselves, none of which have been on my radar.\nThat said, one would think the soundtrack could provide a massive windfall for Oberst, and may even be the beginning of something big if other artists get the wild idea of recording one of his songs. He is, after all, an impeccable songwriter, though much of his material feels too intensely personal to translate to another artist. But I suppose they said the same thing about Dylan.\nSpeaking of great songwriters, Tim Kasher has a track on the Old Point Light Records\u2019 Fourward series. Fourward is a digital music project, with volumes released quarterly. Songs are recorded onto a Tascam four-track or any at-home studio. Some songs are rare B-sides, unreleased or demos, the label said. All proceeds are donated to the American Cancer Society and Johns Hopkins Myositis Center.\nThe comps\u2019 track listings read like a list of bands that played Sokol Underground in the \u201990s: Hot Water Music frontman Chuck Ragan, Travis Dopp of Small Brown Bike, Gordon Withers of Office of Future Plans, ex-Indian Summer duo Ghost Trees and more. More info here.\nKasher\u2019s track, \u201cThis Again\u201d appears on Volume 3 and can be downloaded right now for free here at Brooklyn Vegan, and the entire album also is being streamed at Spotify.\nLooks like slim pickin\u2019s for shows this week\u2026\nPress: Conor in Billboard; Kasher in German; Angel Olsen tonight\u2026\nCategory: Blog \u2014 Tags: Angel Olsen, Conor Oberst, Tim Kasher \u2014 @ 12:50 pm April 29, 2014\nConor Oberst in Billboard.\nBillboard yesterday published an extensive interview with Conor Oberst in support of his upcoming solo release, Upside Down Mountain. With the headline \u201cEx Boy Wonder of Indie Rock Moves to Major Label,\u201d the rather long story only has a handful of Oberst quotes, including this response to leaving Saddle Creek Records for Merge earlier in his career:\n\u201cYou know that old adage \u2018Don\u2019t mix business with pleasure\u2019 or \u2018Don\u2019t work with your friends\u2019?\u201d Oberst says. \u201cI can\u2019t say I completely agree with that, but it becomes\u2026 complex. One day you look up and it\u2019s like, we\u2019re not stuffing 7-inches in my parents\u2019 attic anymore, you know? Money got involved and we were having to make tough decisions to try and keep everyone happy.\u201d\nHe goes on to explain why he went with Nonesuch instead of self-releasing the new album: \u201cI kind of come from a prehistoric time I guess because I really want a record label,\u201d Oberst says. \u201cI\u2019ve run record labels or been a part of running record labels before, and honestly none of that stuff interests me in the least anymore.\u201d\nHe also weighs in on his song lyrics, acting, his proposed-but-never-produced Monsters of Folk sci-fi concept album and his older material: \u201cIn some ways it\u2019s unfortunate that all my music is out there because I\u2019m kind of embarrassed by some of it.\u201d I\u2019ll let you speculate which music he\u2019s referring to.\nAlso yesterday German website prettyinnoise posted a video interview with Tim Kasher. What makes this one particularly interesting is the approach by the interviewer, who asks questions that probably wouldn\u2019t get asked by your typical indie music scribe.\nKasher talks about his first exposure to \u201cguitar rock\u201d (the first record he bought was Men Without Hats), the finer points of American health insurance (including how much he pays), battling his \u201cshyness\u201d and his dislike for house/techno music. It\u2019s as if the interviewer was from another planet (or is director Werner Herzog) interviewing an alien life form, and I love it. The footage also includes some tasty live acoustic performances of songs off his last solo album. Check it out below:\nTonight\u2019s marquee show is Angel Olsen at The Waiting Room. I saw her and her band perform in an Austin church at South By Southwest this past March. If you dig her most recent album, Burn Your Fire For No Witness (Jagjaguwar), you owe it to yourself to see her perform it live. She has a touch of Tammy Wynette in her voice, though her music is typical indie rock singer/songwriter fare (with a twang). Opening is Nashville band Promised Land Sound (Third Man Records). $10, 9 p.m.\nKasher\u2019s new video; Waxahatchee, Big Al Fest (Bloodcow, Hoshaw) kicks off tonight\u2026\nCategory: Blog \u2014 Tags: Big Al, Tim Kasher, Waxahatchee \u2014 @ 12:45 pm April 24, 2014\nTim Kasher yesterday debuted his new self-directed video for track \u201cYou Scare Me to Death\u201d on German website Musik Express. Here\u2019s what they had to say about it:\nCursive- und The-Good-Life-S\u00e4nger Tim Kasher hat ein neues Musikvideo ver\u00f6ffentlicht, und das erz\u00e4hlt von einer nur scheinbar heilen Welt: Im Clip zum Song \u201cYou Scare Me To Death\u201d geht es titelgem\u00e4\u00df um nicht weniger als um die Angst, einen geliebten Menschen zu verlieren.\nI don\u2019t know what that means, but I bet it\u2019s really nice.\nCouple o\u2019 shows going on tonight:\nAt The Waiting Room it\u2019s Brooklyn folk project Waxahatchee (Don Giovanni Records / Wichita Recordings) with Carbonleak & Manic Pixie Dream Girls. $12, 9 p.m.\nMeanwhile the Big Al Free Music Festival 2014 kicks off at The Hideout, 320 So. 72nd St. Al\u2019s been doing it for free for seven years. The three-night festival starts tonight with a line-up that includes some big hitters: Bloodcow and Brad Hoshaw, among others. Check out the whole lineup on their Facebook page. The show is free (duh) and starts at 8:45.",

        "raw_content": "Great Event: The Greenwich International Film Festival\nI recently listened to a fascinating podcast about the importance of creativity, and how it is an integral trait that brings joy and fulfillment to our lives when we use it. Many dismiss this idea with an off-handed, \u201cBut I\u2019m just not a creative person.\u201d When we dismiss the idea of being creative, we neglect to see what creativity really is. It is not about having the ability to paint or draw. It is so much more than that. It is within all of us, and creativity comes in many forms. It is music, film, art, and a whole host of other crafts. It is the thing that brings us happiness, allows us to express ourselves, and lets us experience humility and inspiration as we try, fail, and try again. That trial and error process often presents us with new ideas and concepts \u2013 giving us a great sense of accomplishment when the process is complete. I love that the Greenwich International Film Festival creates space for creativity here in our town. The event runs for 4 days in early June, and they have workshops, films, discussions, and parties planned at multiple venues in town. It\u2019s a way to get your creative juices flowing, to escape into the world of film, and a fascinating way to network with industry changemakers and entrepreneurs. As a small scale filmmaker myself I am thrilled to see this medium highlighted and shared with the masses. You can buy tickets for the whole 4 day event or just hand pick parts of it that make you excited. Let\u2019s hear it for the arts!\nQ&A with Wendy Reyes and Colleen Deveer, Co-Founders, GIFF\nWhat is the Greenwich International Film Festival?\nThe Greenwich International Film Festival is a boutique 4 day film festival that is held annually in Greenwich, CT. This year GIFF will launch its sophomore season June 9th featuring a slate of 53 films, panels, parties and galas.\nIt truly takes a village to build a film festival. Last year we had a staff of more than 120 employees, interns, and volunteers who were all critical to our ability to execute the 70 plus events we hold each year. We count a tremendous amount on our volunteers and community advocates to spread the word about the festival.\nWhere can people buy tickets?\nPeople can buy passes and tickets online (www.greenwichfilm.org) and there are discounts available to Greenwich residents, students, teachers and service men and women. We offer panels free to the public. Pass holders are critical in our ability to offer discounted and free events so everyone in our community can be included in some aspect of the festival weekend.\nAre the tickets \u201cone size fits all\u201d or can people buy a la carte to the parts of the festival they are most interested in?\nOne challenge is communicating \u201cHow to Fest\u201d to our audience. There is something for everyone and each of our 7,500 attendees last year had their own unique experience. Whether you are a pass holder who loves comedies, a doc junkie, a parent interested in our Children\u2019s Acting Workshop, or someone who is interested in our Black Tie Changemaker Gala. We offer options for engagement for everyone! We have opened a box office just off Greenwich Ave at 19 West Elm street right next to Aux Delices where people can come in and ask questions.\nWhere will your events take place?\nOur events this year will take place at the Bow Tie Cinemas, the beautiful Avon Theatre, the Greenwich High School, Greenwich Country Day School and the Greenwich Library. We will also have a VR lounge open during the festival at the Nantucket Project headquarters. Our parties will be hosted at The Boys and Girls Club, Betteridge, Richards and The J House among others. Greenwich is the ideal community for a film festival as we are able to create a true festival village and there is easy access in and out of Manhattan.\nWhat are a few of the highlights that make this year different than last year?\nThis year I am incredibly excited about the quality and diversity of the film slate. I am also thrilled that the 2016 Film Festival will be serving as a platform for Human Rights issues and we will be partnering with The Rainforest Fund, an organization founded by this year\u2019s Changemaker, Trudie Styler and her husband Sting, which supports indigenous communities around the world; The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence; Community Access, an organization that helps low income people particularly those afflicted with mental illness find housing; and UNHCR, the United Nations Refugee agency. Additionally, we are partnering with many local organizations like the YWCA to highlight films we have on issues such as women\u2019s rights, autism, environmental rights, and gun violence.\nIs there an opportunity for kids to get involved?\nOur Children\u2019s Acting Workshop was one of my favorite events of our first year. This year it will be held on Saturday, June 11 at Greenwich Country Day School and will be featuring actress Peyton List (Jessie, Diary of a Wimpy Kid) and Neel Sethi current star of The Jungle Book. Passholder\u2019s children will also have the opportunity to see what it is like to audition with the help of casting director and board member Adrienne Stern and children\u2019s acting coach Matt Newton. The event is very interactive and guests have the opportunity to engage in acting exercises in addition to hearing about Peyton and Neel\u2019s personal experiences.\nWhat does GIFF bring to our town that is special and unique?\nGIFF is really an opportunity to showcase Greenwich to the rest of the world. The first year\u2019s festival resulted in 280 million media stories including coverage in The Wall Street Journal, Town and Country, Variety, The Hollywood Reporter and on The Today Show, CNBC and Access Hollywood to name a few. Additionally, the fest generated over 4 million dollars in economic impact to the town and we had 7,5000 people come through our events over the weekend. In a survey we did immediately following the festival 98% of people who attended said they would attend again and refer it to a friend.\nWhy do the arts matter?\nTo us, film is the most powerful form of art. There is nothing else that can pick you up and put you into someone else\u2019s life in the timeframe a movie can. It is a medium that can generate immediate empathy. In a town where many of us are blessed with homes, food on the table and safe places for our children to go to school, it is important that we remain aware of what is going on in the broader world, hopefully helping us to become engaged wherever we can.\n\u00ab Great Business: Mike\u2019s Organic Delivery\nMay: Links I Love \u00bb\nCategory: Art and Film Tags: Colleen Deveer/ GIFF/ Greenwich International Film Festival/ Wendy Reyes",

        "title": "10 Amazing Scientific Discoveries Of 2017 - Listverse",
        "raw_content": "10 Amazing Scientific Discoveries Of 2017\nJonathan H. Kantor April 18, 2018\nThe best aspect of science is that it is always changing. New ideas and new discoveries change the way we perceive the world, and the people behind such observations are constantly at work. 2017 was no slouch in terms of new developments and advancements in technology, thanks to the thousands of men and women always wandering and testing the world to identify new things.\nWhether it\u2019s in the fields of medicine, communication, or human development, there is always something new to be found. In 2017, some significant advancements have helped to technologically propel us one step closer to the future. Here are ten discoveries or advancements made in 2017 that will amaze, confuse, and possibly terrify you.\n10 First Successful Edit Of A Human Embryo In The US\nPhoto credit: Oregon Health and Science University\nScience fiction writers have been warning us for years about the potential dangers of genetic engineering, but that hasn\u2019t stopped scientists from pushing forward to make significant progress in 2017. The first attempt made in the United States to genetically modify human embryos was carried out by Shoukhrat Mitalipov of Oregon Health and Science University. The experiment successfully altered the DNA within the embryos via the gene-editing technique CRISPR. This wasn\u2019t the first time such an achievement has been made\u2014Chinese scientists had previously published three reports about the practice\u2014but this is the first time the Americans have gotten off the sidelines and made it happen.[1]\nThe significance of American research in the process of editing a human embryo via CRISPR is paramount to the science moving forward. Innovations made by Mitalipov\u2019s team allow for a new safe and efficient means of potentially correcting genetic disorders long before an embryo has a chance to develop. They successfully avoided the pitfalls of mosaicism, an error in the editing process made by the Chinese that left some cells unaffected. At present, the practice doesn\u2019t allow for actual implantation into a womb, but once the legal hurdles are cleared, this research will likely yield the first genetically modified human, whom Star Trek already named Khan Noonien Singh.\n9 Creation Of Metallic Hydrogen\nPhoto credit: Isaac Silvera/Harvard University\nWe all know Hydrogen is a gas, right? It\u2019s the first element found on the Periodic Table and is also the most abundant element in the universe. Even people who aren\u2019t involved in chemistry recall that much about hydrogen, so it might come as a shock to learn that scientists made a significant discovery about the element in 2017. Researchers at Harvard University finally proved a theory about hydrogen made more than a century previously: It can become a metal. They accomplished this by squeezing a small amount of hydrogen at a pressure greater than that found at the center of the Earth: 71.7 million pounds per square inch. This caused the sample to break down and transform into atomic hydrogen, which is a metal.[2]\nBelieve it or not, the impacts of creating metallic hydrogen are huge. Finding a way to convert hydrogen into a metal has been called \u201cthe holy grail of high-pressure physics,\u201d and the uses for metallic hydrogen suggest it can be used as a room-temperature superconductor. Additionally, the innovation can benefit the transportation industry by making electric cars more efficient as well as many other practical applications for other industries.\n8 First Gene Editing To Modify DNA In A Living Patient\nPhoto credit: AP/Eric Risberg\nEditing the genes in an embryo is one thing, but editing them inside a fully grown adult is another. The difference has to do with the number of cells involved and a wide range of other issues, but the scale is increased astronomically. Scientists initiated an experiment in November 2017 to attempt a repair of a patient with a rare metabolic disorder. The 44-year-old patient has Hunter syndrome, a disorder that can cause developmental delays, brain damage, and a reduced life span. The experiment developed a method via a process called zinc finger nucleases (ZFN) to infuse the patient\u2019s blood with tools designed to edit DNA.[3]\nIn this particular experiment, the goal wasn\u2019t to outright alter the DNA of existing cells but to remove portions of the DNA helices of liver cells. Once that bit has been cut out, a replacement copy without the code for the disorder is entered back into the helix. The idea is that those cells will then multiply and hopefully replace enough of the original cells carrying the \u201cbad genes\u201d for the disorder to degrade, resulting in a new form of treatment. This process is called \u201csafe harbor,\u201d and it avoids potential complications by targeting specific parts of the DNA helix rather than randomly altering it, which could potentially result in turning on harmful genes.\n7 Oldest Human Skeleton In The Americas Discovered To Be 13,000 Years Old\nPhoto credit: Tom Poole, Liquid Jungle Lab\nA discovery in a flooded cave in Mexico moves the timetable of when humans migrated from Asia into the Americas back a few thousand years . . . maybe more. The discovery of a young male human skeleton, dubbed the Young Man of Chan Hol (the name of the cave), places his death at 13,000 years ago. We have known that an ice-free land bridge opened up between North America and Asia 12,500 years ago. This young man came to Mexico much earlier than that.[4]\nNot only is the skeleton 500 years older than the known existence of the land bridge, but it was found more than 6,400 kilometers (4,000 mi) away in the south. This suggests that the Young Man of Chan Hol migrated much earlier than previously believed. This discovery is the oldest human skeleton found in the continent thus far, but other discoveries in Chile have yielded human artifacts dating back to at least 18,500 years ago. That discovery and others have pushed the arrival date of humans in the Americas as far back as 22,000 years ago.\n6 Human Cells Grown Inside Pigs\nWhen it comes to creepy but useful, you don\u2019t need to look much further than the innovations made by the work of the Salk Institute\u2019s Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte with humans and pigs. Belmonte has been working on developing human organs inside pigs, and he succeeded in the first step in that process in 2017: growing human cells within a developing pig embryo. The result of creating an organism with alien cells is called a chimera and has been done with mice and rats. Putting human bits into a pig is a new development and one that may change medical science as we know it.[5]\nThe goal of the project isn\u2019t to create human-pig hybrids intent on world domination but rather to grow human organs inside the developing animals. This could drastically increase the availability of viable organs used for implantation in humans and also help in studying the ways that genetic diseases develop in organs, which helps scientists develop new drugs. The cells that were injected into the embryo were precursors of muscle, pancreas, spinal cord, heart, and liver tissue. While this is only a \u201cfirst step\u201d in the process, the research Belmonte is doing could be a game-changer in the advancement of medicine.\n5 Successful Data Transmission Using Quantum Entanglement\nPhoto credit: arXiv:1707.00542 [quant-ph]\nData transmission has always been a problem. Whether the rate of transfer is too slow or picks up errors and degradation along the way, the movement of data has been something of a limiting factor in the growth of the Information Age. It\u2019s only in the last decade or so that we can stream a movie on our computers or smartphones, so where might we go from here? Chinese scientists may have answered this question by successfully transmitting data via quantum teleportation. Yes, teleportation.\nThis doesn\u2019t mean they placed a notepad onto a transporter device like in Star Trek and beamed it somewhere. What they achieved involved the transfer of quantum information by manipulating the quantum state in one particle, with instantaneous results more than 1,400 kilometers (870 mi) away. The researchers in Ngari, Tibet, succeeded in transmitting the data to the Micius satellite, currently in orbit. This wasn\u2019t the first time they succeeded in manipulating matter in two different places simultaneously, but this experiment blows their previous success of a 100-kilometer (62 mi) transmission out of the water.[6] The potential practical applications for this achievement may allow for advances in quantum computing, which should put the development of Skynet right on schedule.\n4 First Successful Relaunch/Reuse Of A Rocket\nIt took them a few years and several attempts, but Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX successfully achieved a feat that was relegated to science fiction until only recently. They launched and then vertically landed a rocket. Actually, they achieved that a couple of years back, but the big achievement made in March 2017 came when SpaceX launched a rocket they had previously landed.[7] This was an important milestone for both the company and the development of spacefaring technology, given the astronomical costs associated with simply getting something into orbit around the planet.\nPrior to the March launch, no non-booster rocket launched into orbit had ever been recovered and launched back into space. Previously, all rockets that carried a payload or even people into space were dumped into the ocean or burned up on reentry, never to be used again. This meant that a subsequent launch required the construction of an entirely new rocket. Since spacebound rockets cost in the hundreds of millions of dollars, finding a path toward better rocket recycling was a must for Musk\u2019s company. Since their successful launch in early 2017, the company succeeded in recovering all of their rockets and continued the practice with the historic launch of the Falcon Heavy in early February 2018.\n3 Humanity Is Much Older Than We Thought\nPhoto credit: Jean-Jacques Hublin, MPI EVA Leipzig\nIt seems every few years, a discovery is made requiring us to update our history books when it comes to determining just how old humans actually are. As we\u2019ve increased our understanding of human evolution, we\u2019ve have pushed the date further back in time. For many years, it was believed that Homo sapiens began on Earth around 100,000 years ago. Eventually, this number doubled, and thanks to a new discovery made in Morocco, it looks like we have been walking about this planet for at least 300,000 to 350,000 years.\nThat\u2019s a significant change to our previous understanding, especially considering that human remains at the same site had only ever yielded bones dating back 40,000 years. Prior to this discovery, the oldest-known human remains were found in Ethiopia, with a date placing them back 195,000 years. This new finding not only indicates that humans have existed for nearly twice as long as previously thought, but we crossed Africa long before ever thought possible.[8]\n2 First Interstellar Visitor Was Tracked In Our Solar System\nPhoto credit: European Southern Observatory/M. Kornmesser\nGlance up at the night sky, and any stars you see are far beyond the boundaries of our solar system. Light from these objects has been reaching our planet since it was formed more than 4.5 billion years ago, but physical objects from far away had never been observed in our space until only recently. In October 2017, astronomers working out of the University of Hawaii identified an object that did not originate in our solar system, making it the first known alien object to ever visit us. The object was little more than a large piece of rock like many found in our local neighborhood, but its trajectory clearly placed its origin far from our neck of the woods.\nThe object, named \u2018Oumuamua, which means \u201cscout\u201d or \u201cmessenger\u201d in the Hawaiian language, is spinning rapidly, has a radius of approximately 100 meters (330 ft), and is about 800 meters (2,600 ft) long. Based on \u2018Oumuamua\u2019s trajectory upon entering our solar system, it came from somewhere in the vicinity of the constellation Lyra. It arrived in a perpendicular path before our Sun\u2019s gravity altered its route and shot it toward the constellation Pegasus. It passed Earth at a distance of approximately 15 million miles at a speed of nearly 45 kilometers per second.[9]\n1 Successful Creation Of An Artificial Womb\nIn just about any film featuring cloning, scientists have to create a sort of artificial womb to mature an embryo. Without such a device, a surrogate womb would be needed in order to create a clone, which is how cloning has previously worked outside of science fiction. The first cloned sheep, Dolly, was \u201cgrown\u201d in a surrogate sheep\u2019s womb, but this method has never been efficient and often results in failed pregnancies. Ideally, an artificial womb would offer a means of gestating a clone in a lab, where it could be monitored and maintained, but the application of this would also help \u201ccarry\u201d prematurely born human babies to term in an environment much safer than current technology allows.\nA new study published in early 2017 found that an artificial womb created by researchers from the Children\u2019s Hospital of Philadelphia succeeded in fostering normal growth in fetuses \u201cborn extremely prematurely,\u201d with successful development in all areas. This new artificial womb was used on lamb fetuses, and the results were extraordinary. As research continues, Alan Flake, the lead researcher behind the study, believes that they will be able to test the womb on premature human babies within three to five years. If proven successful, premature babies could theoretically continue to develop fully outside their mother\u2019s womb and inside this artificial one until they are ready to be born.[10]\nRead about more advancements and learning from 2017 on 10 Absorbing Advances About Alcohol Achieved In 2017 and 10 Fascinating New Things We Learned About Dinosaurs In 2017.\n10 Strange Facts About Famous Historical Villains\nTop 10 Distressing Facts About ISIS\nTop 10 Strange And Scary Facts About Microplastics",

        "raw_content": "Living Wage Bill Divides Queens\nPaula Neudorf\nCompeting interests squared off last week at a legislative hearing\nAt a New York City Council hearing held on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, opponents and proponents of the living wage bill sounded off. The hearing came on the heels of a well-attended pro-living wage rally held Monday at Riverside Church in Manhattan.\nThe bill, called the Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act, would require developers who receive public subsidies to pay employees $10 an hour with benefits or $11.50 without. It has sharply divided Queens and the rest of the city, and has already been significantly amended to address various concerns.\nTwenty-nine City Council members, including four of Queens\u2019 14, have sponsored the bill, more than the 26 votes required to pass it should it come up for a vote.\nMayor Bloomberg, however, has publicly voiced his opposition to a living wage mandate. It\u2019s unclear whether there is sufficient support for the bill \u2014 34 votes \u2014 to override a mayoral veto.\nMany agree that Council Speaker Christine Quinn (D-Manhattan) holds the key to the bill\u2019s future. Quinn can effectively kill the measure by not bringing it to a vote, or could rally support were she to back it.\nIn Queens, business leaders by and large oppose to the bill, as they say it will lead to lost jobs and fewer development projects.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a job killer,\u201d said Jack Friedman, the executive director of the Queens Chamber of Commerce. \u201cYou can\u2019t just force a business to increase its payroll.\u201d Friedman said a business paying $10 or $11.50 an hour would not be able to compete with one paying $7.25, the federal minimum wage.\nThe bill requires even firms renting space in a project built with $1 million or more in taxpayer dollars to pay their employees the living wage, a major point of contention.\n\u201cA grocery store could have to pay more than a grocery store down the street,\u201d said Councilman Peter Vallone Jr. (D-Astoria), who also opposes the bill\u2019s \u201cmassive reporting requirements,\u201d and says that in its current form it would hurt small businesses.\nThe bill\u2019s supporters argue, however, that a new provision in the measure, requiring only companies that gross more than $5 million a year be subject to the living wage mandate, protects small businesses. Nonprofits would also be exempt from the provision.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have to accept public money as a private company or entity,\u201d Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer (D-Sunnyside), one of the bill\u2019s sponsors, said. \u201cThe amount of businesses that this would apply to is getting smaller and smaller. And the threshold is more than $1 million in subsidies and tax breaks. If you are receiving those benefits and subsidies, it is appropriate to ask more of those [businesses].\u201d\nOf the arguments that a living wage could hurt the economy, Councilman Danny Dromm (D-Jackson Heights) said simply, \u201cI don\u2019t buy them.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019re not talking about huge sums,\u201d Dromm said with reference to the living wage. Citing the Queens Center mall, one of the \u201chighest grossing malls in America,\u201d Dromm noted that \u201cpeople in the surrounding communities are living in poverty.\u201d\nCompanies that receive subsidies, like the mall\u2019s builder, \u201chave a moral obligation to pay $10 an hour,\u201d Dromm added. \u201cNo one can survive on $7.25 an hour anymore.\u201d\nMany opponents of the living wage bill cite the Bronx\u2019s Kingsbridge Armory as a cautionary tale. They say the $300 million development project slated for the armory fell through because a living wage would have been required there.\nDan Morris, a spokesman for the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union\u2019s living wage campaign, countered that it was Bloomberg\u2019s unwillingness to compromise which scuttled the deal, and noted that Related Companies, the developers involved, had actually agreed to living wage standards for a different project in Los Angeles.\n\u201cWe cannot continue to pump billions of dollars into low-wage jobs,\u201d Morris said. While retail workers, who are frequently employed by stores in government-subsidized projects, would gain from the bill\u2019s passage, Morris said countless employees across the city would benefit.\n\u201cThis is a fight that\u2019s really bigger than this union,\u201d he said.",

        "raw_content": "Living Wage NYC Campaign Begins\nBronx Borough President Diaz Joins with Labor, Community Groups, Elected Officials to Pass the Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act\nThe Living Wage NYC campaign was launched today by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr., Stuart Appelbaum, president of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU), City Council members Oliver Koppell and Annabel Palma, community groups from around the city, and other elected officials. The goal of the campaign is to pass the Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act to ensure that New York City subsidies for economic development create living wage jobs.\n\u201cIn my \u2018State of the Borough\u2019 address, I made it clear that the passage of a living wage law for New York City would be a top priority of my administration. Today, we begin the process of making this law a reality. When developers rely on the taxpayers\u2019 wallets to make their projects work, they must guarantee that the jobs created at that project will offer its employees more than just a part-time, minimum wage job with no benefits. The Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act will ensure that heavily subsidized developments create meaningful jobs for their future employees, and I am confident that our legislation will continue to pick up support from every corner of the City,\u201d said Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.\nThe Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act will guarantee that when the city gives businesses public subsidies, the jobs they create will pay at least a living wage. All workers employed at subsidized developments will be covered, including employees at retail stores located in subsidized shopping centers, concession workers at stadiums and cafeteria workers in subsidized office buildings.\n\"I am sponsoring this legislation because I believe that when public subsidies are involved, the people that receive those subsidies should not be paying poverty-level wages. They should be required to pay a living wage,\" said Council Member G. Oliver Koppell who is introducing the bill with Council Member Annabel Palma.\nUnder the bill, the living wage will start at $10.00 per hour \u2013 the same as under New York City\u2019s existing living wage law. Employees who are not covered by an employer-provided health plan will receive an additional $1.50 per hour wage supplement to help them purchase their own health insurance. Both the living wage and the health benefits supplement will be adjusted each year to keep pace with the rising cost of living.\n\"It is time for New York City to join the growing list of communities that promote quality development through living wages. Development that merely results in permanent poverty wage jobs accomplishes nothing. I am confident that the city council will put the interests of the people of this city above those of private developers,\" said RWDSU President Stuart Appelbaum.\nThe Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act is an outgrowth of the recent campaign to require living wage jobs at the redeveloped Kingsbridge Armory. The developer there refused to meet the demands of the coalition of labor, community and religious leaders for living wage jobs and the project was defeated when all but one City Councilmember voted it down.\n\u201cThe Kingsbridge Armory experience taught us that we need a citywide policy to guarantee fair wages on subsidized development projects,\u201d said bill sponsor Annabel Palma. \u201cThe Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act will lay out clear expectations for developers and help speed economic growth that will benefit all New Yorkers.\u201d\nSome 200 members of the growing citywide coalition of community groups mobilizing for the living wage legislation packed the steps of City Hall for the launch of the Living Wage NYC campaign.\n\"Lots of people my age are moving out and getting ready to build a life on their own, but everything is so expensive right now. I work every single day and when I get my paycheck at the end of the week I feel like it's gone in the blink of an eye. That's why I'm here today, to fight for a living wage,\" said Nadia Yakubova, a low-wage retail worker.\nLiving Wage NYC Coalition partners (in formation): Families United for Racial and Economic Equality; Fifth Ave. Committee; Fiscal Policy Institute; Good Old Lower East Side; Labor-Religion Coalition; Make the Road NY; Micah Institute; National Employment Law Project; Northwest Bronx Community and Clergy Coalition; NY Communities for Change, Retail Action Project; Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU).",

        "raw_content": "Big Boost for Living Wage Bill\nNational Study Backs Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act\nA landmark new study by the Center for American Progress (CAP), a highly respected research organization in Washington D.C., is a must-read for everyone in the New York City Council.\nAnalyzing nearly twenty years of data, the study reveals that cities around the country have successfully incorporated living wage standards into economic development projects without harming employment growth or business growth. For a good overview, read this Crains New York Business story.\nThe CAP study puts to rest the debate over living wage standards for jobs created through economic development subsidies, and discredits the work of David Neumark, the economist right now leading a $1 million dollar living wage study for New York City\u2019s Economic Development Corporation (EDC).\nThere are two immediate consequences worth emphasizing here: 1) At a time when massive city budget cuts and layoffs are on the horizon, the EDC has no rationale for wasting $1 million taxpayer dollars on a study that will not even be credible; 2) hard data and evidence in the CAP study justify strong support for the Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act.\nNew Yorkers in every Council district are struggling. Many people who want to work are unemployed and looking for good jobs that will help them support their families. And many people who are fortunate to have jobs are working in sectors like retail where poverty wages, not living wages, are the norm.\nThe Fair Wages for New Yorkers Act would help ensure that future economic development projects create the high-quality, well-paying jobs that New Yorkers in every Council district want and deserve.\nNow is the time for the City Council to call for an immediate hearing on the bill and to push for swift passage of this crucial legislation.",

        "raw_content": "Loans \u00bb Student \u00bb Articles \u00bb PLUS Loans: Limitless Funding Threatens and Deludes Families\nRebekah Coleman | Monday, November 11, 2013 11:16am\nPrivate student loans are vilified. Subprime mortgage loans are slowly being eradicated. But there is another loan product readily available to borrowers that could do even more damage: PLUS loans.\nAs a part of the student funding program offered by the Department of Education, PLUS loans fill in the large gaps left by limited federal options like Perkins Loans and federal grants.\nIn August of this year, President Obama passed a law decreasing the interest rate on federal student loans. Although a lower rate of 6.41 percent helped to reduce interest charges for PLUS loans, large problems, such as non-existent loan limits and lax underwriting, were left unchanged.\nLoans.org investigated how this oversight can cause sweeping problems for both borrowers and their families.\nPatrick Kandianis, co-founder of SimpleTuition, said that part of the limited lending rules comes from legacy issues. Originally, the PLUS loan program was viewed as supplemental to other aid and not borrowed in large amounts. As the cost of college increased, these norms disappeared.\n\u201cMore parents turned to these loans and private education loans because the delta between costs and student financing levels grew,\u201d Kandianis said. \u201cMore people were gaining access to loosely credentialed credit.\u201d\nParents and graduate students can utilize PLUS loans and borrow the remaining cost of college if necessary. This can stretch into tens of thousands of dollars per year.\nThe problems do not stop there. Not only are parents able to borrower limitless amounts of student loans for their children, they qualify even when they have no means to repay the debt. The Parents PLUS loan program, coupled with the Grad PLUS loan program which works in a similar fashion for graduate students, only runs a simple credit report to see if a delinquency has occurred in the past 90 days, if the borrower has a tax lien against them, or if they have faced a recent repossession or bankruptcy.\nIt does not require a detailed employment or asset account and it does not require borrowers or co-signers to detail how they will pay off the student loans. The lack of rules creates an unstable environment for both the borrowers and the federal government \u2014 a situation akin to what we saw during the recent mortgage crisis.\nIncreased Capital But Added Risk\nThis high level of risk is simply a part of the PLUS loan program, according to Navah Fuchs, chief education officer for Angel Ed.\nShe said if underwriters denied the federal loans based on the risky nature of the borrowers, it would be counterintuitive to the specific loan purpose.\n\u201cAll federal student loans operate on the premise of making capital available to those who otherwise would not be able to afford their educational pursuits,\u201d she said.\nThe need for funding is evident, but the limitless borrowing power is problematic. Fuchs said the loans are \u201cunfortunately structured.\u201d\nDespite a generally lax underwriting policy, each borrower\u2019s experience is different. For 26-year-old college graduate Daniella DiMartino, the loan process for her father was extremely long-winded when he applied in late 2010.\nFor the $13,000 that DiMartino\u2019s father borrowed on her behalf, he was required to provide information about employment, taxes, pensions, savings and other financial documents proving that he was fit to repay.\nHe was hesitant to take out the loan for her due to low post-grad employment rates. He also knew that he was legally liable for all of the debt. Even two years later, after securing an account executive position with a public relations firm and faithfully paying her monthly dues, her father remains concerned. She understands why. Each time her father needs to prove his financial history, such as when buying a car or applying for a credit card, the student loan debt is present.\n\u201cWhen he goes to look for anything, it is there,\u201d she said.\nIt is commonly thought that borrowing from federal lenders is safer than from private lenders, but the government\u2019s overarching power of retrieving loans makes it nearly impossible for borrowers to hide from their debts. Borrowers can lose significant amounts of their wages, Social Security checks, and tax returns if they do not repay the federal loans on time.\nIn comparison to credit card companies who have retrieval rates in the single digits, federal student lenders have a phenomenal recovery rate, according to Mark Kantrowitz, senior vice president and publisher of Edvisors.com. The federal government nets between 80 to 85 percent of the money it lends, while the gross rate, before paying collection agencies, is over 100 percent.\nDiMartino and her father can count themselves among the lucky who have not faced the brazen retrieval methods of the government. But as the PLUS loan program grows, so will those affected by it.\nIn 2011, the government approved $10.6 billion in Parent PLUS loans to fewer than one million borrowers. For PLUS loans originating in the 2011 fiscal year, it expects about 9.4 percent will default in the next 20 years. This figure is only for budgetary purposes because the real default figure will likely be higher.\nEven on a shorter time period, federal student loan default rates are higher. The DOE found that 14.7 percent of federal student loans defaulted during a three-year time period.\nThis increasing rate has caused many private lenders, such as Sallie Mae and JP Morgan, to limit or stop their student loan programs.\nAs the options for borrowers diminish, it is likely that the large PLUS loan figure will increase.\nChasing Dreams Regardless of the Cost\nAlthough it complicated the borrowing process, DiMartino was lucky that the federal government required financial documents from her father.\nKantrowitz said the DOE should create more rational loan limits. He said students are borrowing loans based on how much the college is charging and not how much they can realistically repay.\nMore debt-to-income ratios and financial documents should be required to borrow. Kantrowitz said that before the loan is approved, the government should question: \u201cIs this parent presently able to repay this debt?\u201d\nA common lending rule states that borrowers should not take on more debt throughout their education than they can earn during one year post graduation. So if a future social worker faces an average income of $35,000, this borrower should not request more than that figure, whereas lawyer that will likely earn over $100,000 can increase the debt limitations for his or her education.\nAdvisers recommend these equations, but they are not followed by either lenders or borrowers.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not really well designed to give signals to what is a reasonable amount of debt,\u201d Kantrowitz said.\nInstead, he said borrowers are \u201cchasing a dream\u201d regardless of the long-term cost.\nTo determine the value and borrowing standards of higher education, surveys must be collected. Data such as a specific institution\u2019s deferments and default rates could be organized, but it is not. Kantrowitz said the federal government legally has to collect and assess certain items each year, but providing above and beyond is avoided.\nUnless the data is requested from Congress, the government will not begin analyzing it. He has personally requested financial data from the DOE and been turned away.\nKantrowitz said there is a \u201cdistinct lack of awareness of the nature of the problem\u201d facing borrowers and their families because this data is absent.\nTime and time again, experts promote a simple suggestion that could have a sweeping impact on the debt issue: education. If borrowers are educated about how student loans work, how much will be repaid over the course of a loan, and how default could impact their future life, borrowers would treat the lending process more seriously thereby improving the student loan system.\nWithout necessary data like university-specific default rates, financial education is much more difficult. Furthermore, without this information, Kantrowitz said it is impossible to make claims about the value of an education.\n\u201cHow can you say that debt makes college more affordable?\u201d he questioned.\nFuchs does not denounce the importance of a college education, but she does question the amount of money invested in various outlets. Most universities, whether prestigious or not, devote thousands to millions of dollars per year on positive public relations, such as landing on eco-friendly lists.\nThis same dedication is not transmitted to more beneficial outlets, such as job placement and career counseling sessions for students.\n\u201cRight now, you\u2019re basically buying the degree rather than earning it,\u201d she said.\nStartup Of Oneself\nStudent loan debt has been labeled as another potential economic crisis, similar to the housing crash that plagued the United States in 2008 and subsequent years.\nWhether or not student loans have the power to deface a country\u2019s economy is uncertain. If the loans do have that power, there is simply not enough protection or limitation for borrowers.\nTo prevent another housing crisis, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has created and passed several mortgage lending rules which make subprime lending nearly impossible. Although the CFPB has created an educational platform for student borrowers, rules governing educational funding is significantly less impactful.\nKandianis said this is because the CFPB is charged at overseeing private, bank-driven lenders even though federal lenders originate about 85 percent of student loans.\nThe Bureau is a significant force in consumer lending. But students do not need studies about debt, they need laws for protection.\n\u201cSomeone should be watching,\u201d Kandianis said. \u201cExpanding the CFPB to cover it could be the answer.\u201d\nFuchs believes the solution lies more within the context of how students view themselves and their value in the working economy. She said student loans should be under the same regulation as businesses. Almost all startups are denied standard business loans because the risk of failure is too high. Once the business proves itself, the possibility of funding is expanded.\nIn this way, only the most dedicated businesses, and the owners with the most realistic ideas about their need within a community or economic sector, survive. This same idea could transfer to students in a positive way.\nCollege students across the country have deluded ideals about their economic value. This is repeated semester after semester. For example, it is present for the philosophy graduate who leaves higher education with $80,000 in debt but is facing job offers of $30,000 per year.\nEach student can make a meaningful impact on society, but not every student has the potential to make six figures per year.\nIf lenders were willing to view students in the same light as startups, writing a check to the borrower and expecting interest back, the process should be the same. Fuchs said that going to college is the same thing and students should gain the resources and knowledge to become a marketable entity. In the end, college is a startup of oneself.\n\u201cIf you can\u2019t hold the same accountability, the same regulations, as the entrepreneur, you are doing a disservice to that student,\u201d Fuchs said.",

It was launched in April 1982 and was initially only available to 70,000 homes in Norway and Finland. It was later launched in the United Kingdom in June 1983.\nIn 1983, Rupert Murdoch bought the company over and decided to rename the channel to Sky Channel on 31st January 1984. The slogan was originally \"Reaching out to you\", until October(?) 1987, where the slogan was changed to \"Europe's number 1\".\nFebruary\u2013May 1989\nIn February 1989, Rupert Murdoch launched a big push for Direct Broadcast Satellite which involved launching four channels on Astra satellite, which could be easily received with domestic satellites dishes. Sky Channel was one of those channels, the others were Sky News, Sky Movies and Eurosport. This logo was short-lived.\nMay\u2013July 1989\nA new logo was launched in 1989, but this did not last long as the channel was renamed Sky One on July 30th 1989, where the channel began only broadcasting to the UK.\nSky One (first era)\nSky Channel was renamed Sky One a few months after the launch on Astra. From this point onward, the channel began to only broadcast in the United Kingdom.\nOn 1990, the script \"One\" was retired in favour of the sans-serif \"One\". That same year but in November, Sky TV, and BSB merged to make one company, and that was British Sky Broadcasting. Following that merge, all of Sky's network idents were surrounded by a black border/background, and under the idents came the name British Sky Broadcasting.\nAll Sky channels were rebranded on 1st September 1993 after the launch of Sky Multichannels. The US firm Novocom was behind the new graphics. From this era onward, the channel began airing for 24 hours.\nIn early 1995, Novocom launched another look. Video collectors and fans refer this logo and the following logo as the \"tombstone\" era.\nNetwork ID in 1995 until 1996.\nSky 1 (first era)\nWith the launch of Sky 2 on 1st September 1996, Sky One briefly rebranded itself as Sky 1. After Sky 2 was closed on 31st August 1997, Sky 1 used the tombstone look for two more months until its final appearance on 31st October that year.\nSky 1 ident in 1996 until November 1997.\nSky One (second era)\nSky 1 reverted back to its previous name on 1st November 1997 and adapted a new logo called the \"egg\" look. Many fans consider this to be Sky 1's worst logo. It was presumably not liked by Sky themselves either, as the look only stayed for just under seven months.\nA new look for Sky One was launched on May 31, 1998.[1] With this look, Sky departed from the pattern from the last years where the entire company would rebrand at the same time with similar look. Instead, Sky One departed to create its own identity based on filmed idents. This logo was also used to celebrate 10 years of Sky One.\nOn January 7, 2002, Sky One discontinued its May 1998 look and launched their new logo along with a new graphic flat look with colour branded idents and graphics of orange. Sky One again gained a sister channel, Sky One Mix, which was intended as a \"catch-up\" channel, screening repeats of key Sky One programmes later in the same week.\nIn September 2004, Sky One dropped its January 2002 look in favour of its colour idents in order to coincide with its new autumn schedule. Sky Mix also changed its name from Sky Mix to Sky Two one year later. In 2008, the logo remained but its September 2004 look was retired in favour of the February 2008 look (in line with Sky Two and Sky Three). However, this look was short-lived and was only used for six months.\nHD simulcast launched in 2006.\nSky One Ident (February 2008-August 2008)-3\nHD simulcast\nSky1, Sky2, and Sky3 all gained a new look on the 31st August 2008. Sky1 used blue solids for their idents.\nSky 1 (second era)\nThis logo was adapted in February 2011. For New Year's Day 2014, Sky1 was temporarily renamed to Sky Onesie \"to encourage viewers to snuggle up in front of the television wearing onesies, in a bid to recover from the previous night's celebrations\".

Most of the material in nature exhibits solid, liquid, LCD Display and gaseous as the temperature changes. Like water, salt, and substances from each element of the periodic table. Its constituent elements, such as water molecules or silicon atoms, are basically like a single ball. As the temperature decreases or the temperature increases, the arrangement of the constituent elements changes from a later disordered arrangement to a neatly ordered arrangement. From the liquid phase to the gas phase or solid phase. LCD Display In the crystal, the orderly arrangement of the constituent elements, indicating that each constituent unit is in a certain position, is not easy to flow and regular arrangement, as long as people know its arrangement rules, LCD Display you can start from a constituent unit, according to the law to find Another unit, that is, strict space orderly.\nIn addition to the solid, liquid, and solid states we know, LCD Display some substances, which change from solid to liquid, do not change directly from solid to liquid, but to an intermediate state. In the middle of the material looks like the appearance of turbid liquid. But its optical properties and a certain electrical properties and crystal similar.

In turn, these substances from the liquid into a solid, but also through the middle state. A variety of substances can be in a certain temperature range and the crystal, the two characteristics of the material called liquid crystal (LiquidCrystal) is also called liquid crystal phase, intermediate phase or intermediary equal, also known as the fourth state of the material.\nLiquid crystal was first discovered by Austrian botanist L.Reinitzer in 1888. It is found in the melting point of certain substances, found that some substances (lipostearic acid ester and ester fat) will melt through an opaque white turbid liquid state and issued a colorful and beautiful luster, as long as the heating Will become a clear liquid. In 1889, the German physicist Lehmann (O. Lehmann) designed by him, at the time as the latest type of heating device with a polarizing microscope to observe these lipid compounds. LCD Display He found that such white turbidity material looks like liquid. But is anisotropic crystal unique birefringence. Then Lyman named it \"liquid crystal\". This is the origin of the LCD.\nWith the development of science, people know the improvement, LCD Display found that liquid crystal substances are basically organic compounds. One of every 200 of the existing organic compounds is a liquid crystal phase. From the composition and the emergence of liquid crystal phase physical conditions, the liquid crystal can be divided into thermotropic liquid crystal and lyotropic liquid crystal two categories. LCD Display In some organic matter heating dissolved, due to heating damage to the crystalline lattice and the formation of liquid crystal called thermotropic liquid crystal, LCD Display is the first few said because of heating some substances appear liquid crystal phase.

        "raw_content": "by Teritha D. Dean\nHave you ever wondered why major companies like McDonalds and Coca Cola continue to spend millions upon millions of dollars each year on advertising and marketing their products and services. Now, ask yourself what would happen if they didn\u2019t. Would their competitors, let\u2019s say Burger King and Pepsi, suddenly realize an increase in their market share of the profits within their respective industries.\nDid you know that better than 90 percent of all businesses fail within the first year? Grand Opening\u2026 Grand Closing!! Much of a business\u2019 sustainability depends largely upon its advertising and marketing efforts. When you make the decision to start your own business, you should plan on spending (and budgeting, up front) between 10 and 20 percent of your annual projected revenue on advertising and marketing. Word of mouth advertising only works well for those businesses that survive the first few years and continue to effectively advertise and market their products and services.\nAs a Sales and Marketing Professional with the Macon and Middle Georgia Black Pages and Habersham Promotions. I can\u2019t tell you how many times, potential clients, who when called upon to advertise and market their business products and services, respond by saying \u201cI don\u2019t have the money to advertise right now. I will get back with you when my business starts making some money\u201d.\nPardon my French, but that it is the most \u201cbass ackwards\u201d approach to running a business. Moreover, that statement alone, demonstrates the business owners utter ignorance (lack of knowledge) with regards to running a business. Case in point. I am from Macon. I know lots of people here. I decided to start my own business; let\u2019s say a restaurant. I tell everybody I know about my new restaurant. They agree to tell everybody they know. Yet, when I open for business, I am not seeing them come in as paying customers. Oh, some of them may come once or twice, but not every day. But that is simply not enough traffic. Your grasp has to be wider than your reach.\nThe business owners represented in this publication are very much aware of the vital importance of advertising and marketing. They realize that through advertising in this publication, attracting just one new customer will more than cover the cost they paid to place an ad in the printed publication and/or on the web site.\nToday\u2019s technology affords the small business owner an amazing and very exciting opportunity to create print and electronic advertising and marketing tools. These products are competitively priced and are effectively designed to reach the business owner\u2019s specific target audience. Additionally, The Black Pages continually encourages its clientele to do business with the companies and organizations that recognize and appreciates the role that African American consumerism plays in the economic vibrancy of our community.\nJacobs Closets\nWhat\u2019s the process to advertise through your company?\nmbpadmin\nGive me a call at 478-318-1371 Louise Wilson..Thank you for your inquiry",

        "title": "Social Structure of Ancient India",
        "raw_content": "In ancient India, society was divided into four parts (varnas): brahmins, kshatriyas, vaisyas, and sudras. The Rajputs eventually came to occupy the place in society of the kshatriyas. In that ancient era, this system was very fluid and flexible. Ibbetson writes in his book, \"In the earlier Hinduism we find that, while caste distinctions were primarily based upon occupation, considerable license in this respect was permitted to the several castes, while the possibility of the individual rising [or falling] from one caste to another was distinctly recognized (4).\"\nThe original intent of caste was to provide a convenient social structure to the Indian civilization, with the actions of an individual determining their rank in society. A parallel may be drawn to the West's social classification of people into different classes such as the middle class and the wealthy class. An individual's accumulation of wealth can easily propel them from one class to another.\nHowever, this basic Indian classification would eventually be expanded and intolerably abused. Different levels of status came to be associated with each caste, and changing one's status in life became virtually impossible. As a result, the caste system of today hardly represents its original intent and has lost much of its intended usefulness. In fact, the mere mention of the word \"caste\" nowadays brings negative connotations to many people's minds.\nWithin the above framework, Ibbetson identifies two principles, the community of blood and the community of occupation (2). The community of occupation reflects one's caste. The community of blood reflects one's tribe. The Mair Rajputs are a tribe, as it is a community related by blood. That does not mean that all Mair Rajputs are related to one another. Instead, since marriages form bonds of blood, the Mair Rajputs traditionally marry only other Mair Rajputs. The caste of the Mair Rajputs eventually has come to be goldsmiths, because that is currently their predominant occupation.\nHere is a possible method of classification that should reduce some confusion. The asli kaum or original community of the Mairs is the Rajput community. The Mairs, as far as I can tell, are a conglomeration of branches of different Rajput tribes. The Mair Rajputs collectively form a jaath, or tribe. The \"traditional\" trade or occupation of the Mairs is goldsmithing. The gothras, or families, are the sections that comprise the Mair Rajput tribe.\n\ufffd Copyright 1998-2010. All rights reserved.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Back to Makerspaces\nCECS Machine Shop\nMakerspace Profile\nThe CECS Machine Shop is located in the same building as the 5 departments that come under the College of Engineering and Computer Science. The previous machine and wood shops, have been combined and remodeled as a larger Machine Shop was needed due to the increase in student usage.\nStudents who have successfully completed the workshop (described below), have access to the Machine Shop during certain hours. Others who do not have access and need any work done can come and make the request to the staff machinists.\nTools, Materials and Resources\nLathes, mills, band saws and other manual machinery. 3D Router, sheet metal equipment. Paint booth. The following items are planned for the near future: 3D printers, CNC mill and lathe, laser cutter.\nAccess & Usage Costs\nThere is no cost to use the equipment in the Shop. The material costs depends on the project the students are working on. If it is a senior design project, each project has funds allocated for material purchase. There is no charge for the 2 machinists to work on student projects, as long as it is class related.\nThere are 2 staff machinist, and a couple of student assistants to cover the hours that the machinists are not available. The Shop is open Mon.- Fri. 8 a.m. to 9.30 p.m., and Sat.- Sun. 8 a.m. \u2013 6 p.m. The Shop is manned at all times it is officially open. The Shop comes under the Manager of Technical Services.\nA hands-on machining workshop is conducted that students. The workshop consists of 3 8-hour sessions, where the students make a C-clamp. The machinist demonstrates each of the steps, and the students follow. This exposes the student to each of the manual machines in the Shop, and each student has to make his/her own C-clamp. All the safely rules are followed, and only after the student successfully completes the training that they are allowed access to the Shop. A shorter training of about 3 hours is held for students who want to use the 3D Router that we have in the space. This is heavily utilized by projects that require a foam mold to be made.\nUse and Activity\nAt the moment, only the 3-day Hands-On Machining Workshop and the 3-hour 3D Router workshop is held for students to be able to use the manual machines and the 3D Router. The manual machines are heavily used during times that there is no workshop being held. Due to safety concerns only a limited amount of students are allowed in at a time.\nIn the past the students use a CAD type program to design the parts and the staff machinist makes the part for them. After the workshop, the students are able to create their own parts, with the machinist overseeing the work. The workshop also makes the student a better engineer for the future as they now realize the limitation of the machines that manufacture the parts they design. Even though each of the students in the workshop work from the same blueprint of the C-Clamp, the end product is not the same. Each puts his/her own design twist while machining.\nThe original machine shop was in a space that was 1,200 sq. ft, and mainly the staff machinist used to use the equipment. In the first year of the hands-on machining workshop 80 students were trained to use the manual machines, and during the latter part of the school year, the shop was heavily utilized by the students working on their senior design. Due to space and safety concerns, a remodel of the space was undertaken. The work was started during the Summer of 2014, and has just been completed. The new space is now 3,200 sq. ft. which allows us to have more machines, including 3D printers, CNC machines, etc.\nAdvice to other Makerspaces\nWhen one plans a maker space, one needs to not only think of the equipment and space needs, but also critical are the personnel to man the space, and all the needed training and safety needs have to be considered. This part is always overlooked or underestimated.\nhttp://www.csun.edu/engineering-computer-science/machine-shop/\nView this makerspace's webpage\nJacaranda Hall (JD) 1572\n3d Router Paint booth Mill Lathe Sheet metal former Bandsaw\nMakerspaces to view next\nCollege of Engineering - Protolab\nMakerspace at University of Florida\nThe College of Engineering Protolab is a Makerspace that is designed to \u201cPower the New Engineer\u201d.",

        "title": "Coolidge \u2013 Many Things Considered",
        "raw_content": "Baseball, Churchill, Coolidge, Politics\nHuey Long, the one-time Governor and Senator from Louisiana, was one of the great and colorful demagogues in American political history. Huey rarely said anything that wasn\u2019t over the top, critical of Washington politicians of both parties, politically incorrect even in the 1930\u2019s, and often very funny. A typical Long performance \u2013 unlike so much of today\u2019s political rhetoric \u2013 came in the form of a folksy, witty story that made a larger political point.\nOne of my Long favorites: \u201cThe Democratic Party and the Republican Party were just like the old patent medicine drummer that used to come around our country,\u201d Long once said. \u201cHe had two bottles of medicine.\n\u201cHe\u2019d play a banjo and he\u2019d sell two bottles of medicine. One of those bottles of medicine was called High Popalorum and another one of those bottles of medicine was called Low Popahirum.\n\u201cFinally somebody around there said is there any difference in these bottles of medicines? \u2018Oh,\u2019 he said, \u2018considerable. They\u2019re both good but they\u2019re different,\u2019 he said.\n\u201c\u2018That High Popalorum is made from the bark off the tree that we take from the top down. And that Low Popahirum is made from the bark that we take from the root up.\u2019\n\u201cAnd the only difference that I have found between the Democratic leadership and the Republican leadership was that one of \u2019em was skinning you from the ankle up and the other from the ear down \u2014 when I got to Congress.\u201d\nOther great political phrase makers, Winston Churchill for instance, have the ability to slice with humor. Churchill once said of political rival and Labour Party Prime Minister Ramsey Macdonald that he \u201chas the gift of compressing the largest amount of words into the smallest amount of thoughts.\u201d Great line.\nOr how about Ronald Reagan\u2019s mix of humor and politics, including this searing putdown of his opponent in the 1980 presidential campaign. \u201cRecession is when your neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours. And recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his,\u201d Reagan said.\nSuch use of clever and clear political language has all but disappeared from our political discourse as members of both modern political parties become guilty of outrageous, uninspired and borderline crazy political speech hardly any of which is as funny or as precise as Long, Churchill or Reagan. Consider some recent examples.\nThe Washington Establishment Response:\nLiz Cheney, the daughter of the former vice president, has launched a Republican primary challenge against incumbent Sen. Mike Enzi of Wyoming. Not surprisingly, many of Enzi\u2019s colleagues \u2013 Arizona\u2019s John McCain, included \u2013 have endorsed his re-election. What does Liz Cheney do? She falls back, of course, on the lame, tired and limp response of, no doubt, a political consultant. \u201cLiberal Republican Senators like John McCain\u2026have endorsed my opponent.\u201d Liberal Republicans? Like John \u201cI ran against Obama in 2008\u201d McCain?\n\u201cThe Washington Establishment is doing all it can to try to stop us,\u201d the unimaginative Ms. Cheney says. \u201cEven with the mess in Washington today, the Establishment is fighting hard to protect incumbents. You and I know that protecting incumbents won\u2019t protect our freedom.\u201d\nThe challenger is guilty of a political attack that fails to pass the smell test and, even worse, of being boring. If you can\u2019t do better than that maybe you should stay in Casper.\nThe Invoke The Bible Response:\nThe always reliably kookie Rep. Michele Bachmann said recently that President Obama\u2019s decision to provide arms to certain of the Syrian rebels was proof of, well let her explain.\n\u201cThis happened, and as of today, the United States is willingly, knowingly, intentionally sending arms to terrorists,\u201d Bachmann said on a Christian radio show, \u201cNow what this says to me, I\u2019m a believer in Jesus Christ, as I look at the End Times scripture, this says to me that the leaf is on the fig tree and we are to understand the signs of the times, which is your ministry, we are to understand where we are in God\u2019s end time history.\u201d\nThe end times? The end times of her term in Congress maybe.\nInvoke the Nazis:\nA state representative in Arizona, Brenda Barton of Payson, took to Facebook during the recent government shutdown to complain about National Park closures and in the process, you guessed it, she made the Nazi comparison.\n\u201cSomeone is paying the National Park Service thugs overtime for their efforts to carry out the order of De Fuhrer\u2026 where are our Constitutional Sheriffs who can revoke the Park Service Rangers authority to arrest??? Do we have any Sheriffs with a pair?\u201d she wrote.\nWhen called on whether the Nazi angle to the government shutdown was really appropriate Rep. Barton doubled down. \u201cYou better read your history,\u201d she said. \u201cGermany started with national health care and gun control before any of that other stuff happened. And Hitler was elected by a majority of people.\u201d\nActually, reading the real history, tells us that the German social welfare system began to come together under Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck in the 1870\u2019s and evolved over time, much as Social Security, Medicare and the Affordable Care Act have in the United States.\nAs the National Institutes of Health says about German health care: \u201cRather than being solely a lesson about leftist politics and the power of trade unions, health care in Germany is above all a story of conservative forces in society. These forces include public and private employers, churches, and faith-based and secular social welfare organizations. They remain committed to the preservation of equitable access to quality medical services, and they form crucial pillars for the delivery of medical services and nursing care.\u201d It is less complicated, I know, to just make up \u201cyour history\u201d and blame the Nazis.\nThe Texas flaming meteorite Sen. Ted Cruz had his own \u201cinvoke the Nazis\u201d moment recently when he said failing to defund Obamacare was analogous to \u201cappeasement\u201d of Hitler\u2019s Germany in \u201cthe 1940\u2019s.\u201d\nTed, Ted. First, the lessons of Munich are still much debated by thoughtful people, including imminent historians, who continue to sift through the nuances of whether Hitler and the Nazis might have been stopped short of world war. And, for what it\u2019s worth, the Yale education senator got his decade wrong. Britain was at war with Germany in September 1939. But here\u2019s the real point \u2013 the \u201cappeaser\u201d label is one of the cheapest and sleaziest charges any politician can level at another, as that \u201cliberal\u201d John McCain made clear to the boy senator from Texas.\nAs a general rule you know a politician is standing on swampy ground when he invokes, in relation to a contemporary issue, the appeasement of Nazi Germany in the 1930\u2019s. There are many lessons for America today from the period immediately before World War II and one important lesson is don\u2019t make sweeping generalizations about someone\u2019s patriotism based on a charge of \u201cappeasement.\u201d\nThe Ripped from the Pages of History Approach:\nHere is another old, old chestnut of political rhetoric. Take a chapter of American history, typically completely out of context, and use that example to support a highly controversial position of the moment.\nRep. Morgan Griffith, a Virginia Republican, employed this bit of rhetorical malpractice recently when he argued that it would be OK to shut down the government and even default on the nation\u2019s debts, because the Founders \u2013 its always the Founders \u2013 did damage to the economy to save it in 1776.\n\u201cI will remind you that this group of renegades that decided that they wanted to break from the crown in 1776 did great damage to the economy of the colonies,\u201d Griffith said. \u201cThey created the greatest nation and the best form of government, but they did damage to the economy in the short run.\u201d\nActually, Mr. Griffith, those \u201crenegades\u201d launched a revolution against the British crown with many of them \u2013 Washington, Jefferson, Adams, for example \u2013 putting their personal fortunes and freedom at risk. The damage done was really to the British economy, but never mind.\nAnd then there is Rep. Alan Grayson, a Florida Democrat, who had his campaign send out a solicitation that compared the Tea Party faction of the GOP to the Ku Klux Klan, complete with burning cross symbolism.\n\u201c[T]here is overwhelming evidence that the Tea Party is the home of bigotry and discrimination in America today, just as the KKK was for an earlier generation,\u201d Grayson said. \u201cIf the shoe fits, wear it.\u201d Actually, that shoe pinches. In its hay day the KKK was more than a political force, it mounted a reign of terror \u2013 lynchings, murders, beatings and more \u2013 primarily against blacks, but also against other minorities. Invoking the Klan to characterize your opponents on the right today is just as offensive as invoking the Nazi to smear your opponents on the left or, in Sen. Cruz\u2019s case, smear members of your own party.\nI could go on and on, but you get the point. Political discourse over important and controversial issues is cheapened and weakened when public official lack the imagination or historical grounding to make an argument on the merits or, at least, an argument that enlightens with a smile.\nIt is asking entirely too much, I know, for today\u2019s political class to have anything approaching the class of a career politician like Winston Churchill, but perhaps they could make an effort to use the language as well as he did. After he became British Prime Minister in 1940, Churchill formed a unity government that included Labour Party leader Clement Atlee, a long-time political opponent, as deputy prime minister. The two men were hardly friends, but did win a war together and maintained a grudging respect for each other; the type of wary respect of one ambitious man keeping a close eye on another ambitious man. Churchill could still cut his opponents down to size with a sharp one liner.\nChurchill once referred to Atlee as \u201ca sheep in sheep\u2019s clothing\u201d and on another occasion as \u201ca modest man, who has much to be modest about.\u201d One of Winston\u2019s best lines reflected in one sentence just what he thought of Atlee\u2019s ability and intellect. \u201cAn empty taxi arrived at 10 Downing Street,\u201d Churchill said, \u201cand when the door was opened, Atlee got out.\u201d Brilliant. How do you respond to that?\nI love politics. I just want to listen to better debate from people smart enough to make better arguments. In other words, a bit more High Popalorum.\nChurchill, Coolidge\nWinston\u2019s Birthday\nThe Boneless Wonder\u2026\nSir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill was born on this day in 1874.\nThe world has not been the same since.\nIn any one of a half dozen fields \u2013 the military, literature, history, painting, lecturing, acting (?) \u2013 Churchill could have become an international celebrity, acknowledged for his remarkable talents. Thank goodness he chose politics.\nFor two years running now, I have had the genuine pleasure of attending the annual Chartwell Society dinner at the elegant Arlington Club in downtown Portland, Oregon. The dinner has been organized for 17 years by a group of Oregon Churchillians who gather to remember the great man\u2019s life and legacy. Of course, true to Churchill\u2019s memory, they also enjoy cocktails \u2013 or Winston\u2019s favorite Pol Roger champagne \u2013 good roast beef and fine French wine. The whole affair is conducted amid much talk of the man who gave Britain her roar during the awful days of World War II.\nUnfortunately, recent changes in Oregon law prevented the standard after dinner cigar at the recent Chartwell Society gala. Winston would not have approved. Generally, he favored a Romeo y Julietta; Cuban, of course and in the size he made famous. One of his cigars, reportedly partially consumed at the Casablanca conference in 1943, was recently valued at 800 pounds.\nI had the honor of delivering one of the toasts during the Chartwell Society dinner, a toast to Churchill\u2019s wartime friend Franklin Roosevelt. I believe theirs was the most consequential friendship of the 20th Century.\nThe Chartwell dinner gets me thinking about the remarkable accomplishments of Churchill and, in fairness, also his rather remarkable failures.\nDecidedly on the plus side of his legacy is the fact that he provided the vocabulary and the courage needed for Britain to hang on against the Germans in 1940 and 1941 while the United States remained a largely isolationist nation. He forged a great alliance with Roosevelt that still resonates with us today.\nChurchill is also remembered for engineering the disastrous British expedition to the Dardanelles in 1915 that ultimately forced his resignation as First Lord of the Admiralty. Winston was a man of action and ideas. Some of his actions and ideas were great, many others were not. Still, perhaps the greatest lesson of Churchill\u2019s long and fascinating life was his determination to always carry on.\nHe famously said: \u201cWhen you are going through Hell, keep on going.\u201d He did.\nWhen Churchill returned to lead the British Navy in 1939 \u2013 remember he had been forced to resign from the same post 24 years earlier \u2013 he was, at age 65, widely considered the right man at the right time, in fact the only man for the job. He went to his old office in the Admiralty Building and found the same charts and maps that he had left there nearly a quarter century before. To mark his return, a signal was flashed to the fleet \u2013 \u201cWinston\u2019s back!\u201d Who says there are no second acts in political life? Churchill had a second, third and fourth life. He always kept on going.\nChurchill will be long remembered for his remarkable ability to inspire with the written and spoken word. He was an elegant, earthy, inspirational, funny and profound speaker, and, take note today\u2019s politicos, his remarkable way with words \u2013 something he worked very hard to master \u2013 was a talent that contributed directly to his political success.\nOne of my favorite stories involves Churchill\u2019s critique of Labour Party Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald, a dour Scotsman who Winston believed was a weak leader. During a parliamentary debate he painted an unforgettable word portrait of MacDonald, who was seated across the floor in the House of Commons:\n\u201cI remember when I was a child, being taken to the celebrated Barnum\u2019s Circus, which contained an exhibition of freaks and monstrosities, but the exhibit on the program which I most desired to see was the one described as \u2018The Boneless Wonder.\u2019 My parents judged that the spectacle would be too demoralizing and revolting for my youthful eyes and I have waited fifty years to see The Boneless Wonder siting on the Treasury Bench.\u201d\nYou can almost hear the laughter, see the nodding heads and know that the victim of the wit and cutting put down had no possible recourse. What does one say to being called The Boneless Wonder?\nOne of the greatest resources for all things Churchill is the Churchill Centre which sponsors an annual conference in the United States and vigorously defends the old boy\u2019s reputation. The scholarly analysis of Churchill\u2019s role in two world wars and the post-war world of the 1950\u2019s and 1960\u2019s continues unabated. My guess is that he will be written about as long as the history of the English speaking people is recorded.\nLike all great men \u2013 and women \u2013 Winston Churchill was far from perfect. He was however a remarkable leader at the very moment the world needed him the most. We should remember his birthday every year.",

        "title": "Loving All Technology \u2014 Matthew Harrop",
        "raw_content": "October 7, 2016 Matthew Harrop\nI was just thinking about my last post, about how I loved all the options that technology has given us writers, and it got me thinking about how I work in those different arenas. Do I get more accomplished when I'm working on my computer? Do the words flow more easily from my trusty fountain pen? Do my characters come alive to the clacks of a typewriter's keys?\nI thought I would give them all a try over the last week, and pay attention to how working in some of those different ways actually affects my work.\nThe first thing that I found, which surprised me, is that I write WAY more in a day when I work on my typewriter. In terms of word count, I've demolished my word goal with ease on my typewriter, even as I struggled to hit it when working on my computer. I don't know what it is. Is there less pressure when working without a knowable word count? Maybe it has more to do with my having to really settle in if I'm going to work on my typewriter. I can't pull that thing out just anywhere and add a few words at a time to my story - I have to clear off my desk, sit down, open up the case I keep my old Royal in, find the paper, load it, reload it because it was so crooked... all of that before I write a single word. I think working that way really helps me get into a headspace that's focused and ready to hit the ground running and not stop (because it was so much work to get going in the first place!).\nThat being said, I found that working on my computer definitely saved me time. Not just in all the preparation that I could avoid with my typewriter, but in processing the words after and, frankly, I can type a lot faster on a keyboard, and without having to scratch out words that I misspell and type again. I would say that writing on my tablet/computer (it's kind of both) was the most efficient, in terms of words written per minute. If my typewriter is like a freight train to a complete manuscript, my computer is more like a mid-size sedan. It's not going for as long, or far, but it's mighty zippier in the short-term.\nThat being said, I tried to make a real effort to do serious work on my phone, and I think if I had the dexterity to make that more efficient it would be the main way that I would write. It was glorious to go out for a walk, stop on a bench or a rock, and rack up some words written without having to carry anything extra around. To just stop next to the river and write a few paragraphs that are instantly available on my computer when I get back... it was a dream. That being said, it's definitely no way to get a whole first draft written. I can add a few hundred words before I'm sick of the constant typos, my fingers not finding the right spaces on the screen to tap, and autocorrect messing with my delightfully human errors. I didn't use a keyboard or anything with it, but if I was going to do that I would just use my laptop. Overall, it was really nice to be able to pull out my phone and add to my manuscript at a whim, which I was pleasantly surprised to find, but definitely not the way to go if I've got a choice.\nI didn't even really try to pen something for a manuscript; I'd like to someday, but just after I started I realized I was going to have to transpose it all and that was where it lost me. I would like to literally pen a whole novel someday; I've written out short stories longhand, but the prospect of re-typing a hundred thousand words is just too much. Even a couple thousand made me a little dizzy. I know I can write with my tablet at least, and it's remarkably adept at translating even my cursive scrawl into usable text. I have that, but I don't know that I'll ever really make much use of it. I do all of my plotting and brainstorming (what little of it I can manage to do ahead of time before I just go for it; yes, I am a proud pantser, not a plotter) longhand, so I'll always carry around my favorite pen and a good notebook.\nIt was really fun to give these different methods a conscious evaluation, and I think I'll try to make good use of all of them. I do like the idea of trying to write a complete manuscript with each of them individually. I know now that none of them is as efficient alone as all of them working together, but I'd like to give that a shot now. Maybe I won't let myself start anything new without committing to one instrument to write the whole thing with... as long as it's not just the computer. Been there.\n\u2190 The Journey?I Love Technology \u2192",

The whole \u201ckeeping up with the Joneses,\u201d or the belief I am only as good or as worthy of good things as people are willing to give me, is a dangerous mind game to play. Finding your worth based on outside perceptions is not a stable platform for healthy and happy relationships, because it is a very conditional way to live. You can never be sure when the other shoe will drop. This lack of security can prevent you from feeling \u201call in\u201d within a relationship, and it can also lead to resentments down the road.\nIf having the biggest house or best car and cloths, and if this is a value you each share, than you both have to be willing to put the effort into maintaining such a standard. I do however caution that you have an honest discussion about the \u201cwhat if\u2019s\u201d in life. Yes, hopefully nothing bad will ever happen, but life is filled with uncertainty and having a backup plan for when the unexpected happens, like a loss of a job or decline in business, illness, or a desire to live off one income, to raise children are very real possibilities for most people.\nRemember, change is inevitable and that is why it is important to keep the lines of communication open and having these conversations on a regular basis will help you weather each storm life brings your way.\nHave there been times when you needed to make adjustments to your expectations about a job or relationship?\nHow did you go about telling the other person about your expectations and your needs within the relationship?",

        "raw_content": "Cannabis as a plant has a rich history which proves that it has been in use for thousands of years by multiple cultures. It was used for health, beauty, recreation and a better lifestyle. The various parts derived from cannabis like its strains, CBD oil, THC, cannabis seeds are all utilized for their miraculous properties.\nAt present, it is not legalized worldwide. Its use continues to be controversial and frowned upon. Several medical organizations have initiated the removal of marijuana from the schedule 1 controlled substances list.\nSeveral studies have indicated that cannabis is highly beneficial in treating chronic pain as well as pain and inflammation related to arthritis.\nResearch conducted by Scripps Research Institute and published in Molecular Pharmaceuticals suggests that marijuana has the ability to slow down the progression of Alzheimer\u2019s disease in the elderly.\nIt is known that epilepsy causes severe seizures which prevent patients from leading a normal life. Researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University have conducted studies indicating that epileptic seizures can be controlled and may even stop with marijuana-based treatment.\nMarijuana has anti-anxiolytic effects when used in moderation. A higher dosage can lead to paranoia and an increased level of anxiety. These conclusions were derived by Harvard Medical School.\nThe \u2018ID- 1; gene which cancer cells use to spread in the body are turned off by cannabidiol, which is a chemical compound in cannabis. This was suggested by a research published in the journal Molecular Cancer Therapeutics.\nContrary to popular belief, cannabis actually increases lung capacity. A research in the Journal of the American Medical Association has come to the conclusion that marijuana can be highly effective in improving lung health.\nCBD and THC are the two main elements of cannabinoids in marijuana. The primary chemical associated with the mind-altering effects of cannabis is THC. It is often used in finding relief from nausea, which may also be induced by chemotherapy or other drugs.\nGlaucoma is a severe condition which builds up pressure inside the eyeball and can even lead to loss of vision. Researchers in the medical fields are constantly trying to develop new marijuana-based drugs which can treat this condition and the pain related to it. The effectiveness of cannabis in treating glaucoma has been determined with studies. Growing auto-flowering cannabis is highly beneficial in this case.\nIt has been found that following a marijuana-based treatment can improve motor skills and treat tremors in patients suffering from Parkinson\u2019s disease. This study was published in MedPage Today and has been found to be promising.\nA highly chronic disease, Multiple Sclerosis or MS is characterized when the immune system eats away of the protective covering of nerves. Symptoms can include double vision and weakness. Though treatment can help the patient, this is an incurable ailment. MS is chronic and can last for several years or for a lifetime.\nFortunately, a study published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal has found that cannabinoids can effectively reduce the pain related to multiple sclerosis.\nAs seen from the above-mentioned benefits, research is helping to draw conclusions on the use of marijuana as a treatment for several diseases. There has been enormous support favoring the legalization of medical cannabis worldwide.\nEvery country has different laws regarding the same. Few nations have made it legal to purchase cannabis from medical dispensaries while others are far from even considering legislation.\nPrevious Article The Medical History of Diabetes\nNext Article 4 Over Toilet Aids to Assist the Injured and Elderly",

        "raw_content": "Reconstructing Traumatic Defects in the Head of the Proximal Phalanx Using an Osteoarticular Pedicle Flap Taken From the Capitate\nIntroduction: To report the reconstruction of traumatic defects in the head of the proximal phalanx using an osteoarticular pedicle flap taken from the capitate.\nMaterials & Methods: From January 2009 to December 2011, 22 patients with traumatic defects in the head of the proximal phalanx were treated. All injuries involved one condyle of the proximal phalanx. There were 19 male and 3 female patients; the mean age was 32 years. The injuries occurred in the index (n=10), middle (n =8), and ring (n=4) fingers. The flap was based on the dorsal metacarpal artery. At the final follow-up, we assessed space narrowing of the proximal interphalangeal joint and flap necrosis on plain radiography. We measured active motion and pinch and grip strength of the hand and compared all measurements with those on the opposite side. Injured-joint pain and donor-joint pain were rated using a visual analog scale. Hand function was assessed using the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scale.\nResults: Patient follow-up lasted an average period of 52 months. At the final follow-up, we noted narrowing of the proximal interphalangeal joint in 4 cases, and no flap necrosis was noted. The mean active motion arc of the injured and opposite proximal interphalangeal joints was 45\u00b0 and 88\u00b0, respectively. The mean pinch strength of the injured and opposite hands was 5.1 and 5.9 kg, respectively. The mean grip strength of the injured and opposite hands was 42 and 45 kg, respectively. Mild recipient joint pain was noted in 3 patients and mild donor joint pain was observed in 1 patient. The mean score of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire was 8.\nConclusions: The use of an osteoarticular pedicle flap taken from the capitate is useful technique for resurfacing traumatic defects of the head of the proximal phalanx, which is acceptable for restoring the contour of the phalangeal head.",

        "raw_content": "2002 The previous evening, San Diego maker of sports medicine products Dj Orthopedics (DJO) reported a 2nd-quarter loss of $4.9 million, or 27 cents a share, on revenue of $45.7 million. This is due to charges totaling $7.6 million related to increases in estimated reserves for accounts receivable, excess inventory, and asset impairment. In the 2nd quarter of 2001, the company earned $1.3 million. Dj Orthopedics also said it plans to implement a restructuring program, and that it has named Jack Blair chairman. Thereupon USB Piper Jaffray downgrades the stock from Outperform to Underperform. On the New York Stock Exchange, DJO drops from its previous close of $5.02 to an intraday low of $2.70 and closes at $2.94. It had dropped steadily ever since it high of $17.23 the day it went public, 15 November 2001 and, as recently as 28 June 2002, traded at $8.70. [9~month price chart >]\n2001 Butcher of Srebenica sentenced to 46 years in prison.\nThe Yugoslav war crimes tribunal hands down its first conviction for genocide, finding a Bosnian Serb general guilty for the deaths of up to 8000 Muslims at the UN-protected enclave of Srebrenica. The verdict and 46-year sentence for Gen. Radislav Krstic [photo, listening to verdict >] could be a harbinger of more genocide trials. A suggestion that the defendant by sentenced to the added penalty of deprivation of his one remaining vowel was rejected as cruel and unusual, considering that, even in the best of times, Serbs suffer from an acute shortage of vowels. As it is the judges had to pronounce the man guilty without being able to pronounce his name.\nIt was the first time that the UN court, established in 1993 to prosecute war crimes in the former Yugoslavia, convicted a suspect of genocide. The crime, introduced in international law by the 09 December 1948 UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, after the Nazi slaughter of 6 million Jews in World War II, refers to \"acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group.\" [Article 2]. So it would not be genocide to destroy, without discriminating as to nationality, ethnicity, race, or religion, other groups, such as professional or occupational (lawyers? CEOs? tax collectors? drug dealers? drug enforcement agents? advertisers? tobacco farmers? saloon keepers? politicians? abortionists? aluminum siding sales agents? insurance agents? lobbyists?), political or ideological (Communists? Socialists? Republicans? Democrats? Greens? White Suprematists? Neo-Nazis? Protectionists? Free Traders? Freudians?), physical or mental condition (Down's Syndrome? Alzheimers? HIV? cancer?), economic condition (billionaires? welfare recipients?), habits (smokers? cell phone users? slow drivers in the fast lane?), etc.\nThe 255-page verdict recounted emotional scenes of family separations at Srebrenica in 1995, of bound and blindfolded victims slaughtered within sight of the bulldozers preparing their graves, of widows and children haunted by memories of their men, and of an operation to hide mutilated corpses.\nKrstic, 53, received the longest sentence yet passed by the tribunaln. He was also convicted of persecution and inhumane treatment for the forceable transfer of 30'000 refugees, mostly women and the elderly, who had sought protection at a Dutch-manned UN base in Potocari near Srebrenica.\nReading a summary of the judgment, Judge Almiro Rodrigues said even though Krstic may have received orders to execute the men and deport women and children, he bore responsibility for genocide. \"You were there, General Krstic,\" Rodrigues said. \"You are guilty of the murder of thousands of Bosnians Muslims. ... You are guilty of inflicting incredible suffering,\" he said. \"In July 1995, General Krstic, you agreed to evil.\"\nReferring to Mladic and Karadzic, both of whom have been indicted on genocide charges for Srebrenica, Rodrigues said the order to kill thousands of innocent people had likely come from Krstic's superiors. \"Someone else probably decided to order the execution of all the men of fighting age,\" the judge said. Rodrigues quoted from a directive issued by Karadzic in March 1995 ordering the creation of \"an unbearable situation of total insecurity with no hope of further survival or life for the inhabitants of Srebrenica and Zepa.\"\nIn July 1995, some 15'000 soldiers under Krstic's command launched an offensive on Srebrenica that cleared the region of non-Serb inhabitants. In a week of bloodshed, his soldiers rounded up thousands of men and teen-age boys and transported them to execution sites throughout eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina. In its summary, the tribunal said a deliberate decision had been made to kill all the men of Srebrenica after Serb forces seized the strategic town in eastern Bosnia, overrunning a Dutch UN garrison, and deported thousands of women, children and old people. \"The result was inevitable - the destruction of the Bosnian Muslim people in Srebrenica,\" said the verdict. \"What was ethnic cleansing became genocide,\" it said.\nThe Srebrenica killings were Europe's worst civilian massacre since World War II. And the genocide verdict places the tragedy in the historical record much as the 1946 Nuremberg trials endure as an official condemnation of Nazi genocide.\nThe term genocide entered international law after the 1948 Genocide Convention, which took effect in 1951.\nJudgement of Trial Chamber I in the Krstic case The events of the nine days from 10 July to 19 July 1995 in Srebrenica defy description in their horror and their implications for humankind\u2019s capacity to revert to acts of brutality under the stresses of conflict. In little over one week, thousands of lives were extinguished, irreparably rent or simply wiped from the pages of history.\nRelated Press release The Trial Chamber stated that it was \"convinced beyond any reasonable doubt that a crime of genocide was committed in Srebrenica\" and that General Radislav Krstic is guilty of genocide.\n2001 Netzero will limit its free Internet access (which it was the first to offer, in 1996, unrestricted) to 10 hours a month (down from 40) starting on 01 October 2001, it is announced by news media (but not by the Netzero web site).\n2000 US President Clinton postpones the scheduled execution of Juan Raul Garza, a Texas drug kingpin and murderer (Garza would be executed on 19 June 2001).\n1996 Dow Industrial average closes up 80.72 points on the good news that. unemployment is climbing and consumer spending is dropping.

American officials describe in as a \"significant\" step in trade relations between the two nations, centered on establishing fair practices for the sale of American computer chips. The two sides agree to establish a council to monitor trading.\n1995 News media report that CompuServe will do a $125 million overhaul of its services in order to brace itself for the launch of the Microsoft Network. The company also plans a family-oriented consumer service called \"WOW\" and a change in pricing to attract more customers.\n1994 El presidente dominicano, Joaqu\u00edn Balaguer, es oficialmente declarado vencedor en las elecciones celebradas el 16 de mayo \u00faltimo.\n1992 Croacia celebra elecciones presidenciales y parlamentarias, que ganan Franjo Tudjman y su partido, Comunidad Democr\u00e1tica Croata (HDZ), respectivamente.\n1991 Argentina y Chile resuelven sus problemas lim\u00edtrofes pendientes desde 1902, a excepci\u00f3n del que existe sobre Laguna del Desierto, que lo har\u00e1 un tribunal arbitral.\n1990 Iraq invades Kuwait\nAt about 02:00 local time, Iraqi forces invade Kuwait, Iraq's tiny, oil-rich neighbor. Kuwait's defense forces are overwhelmed in two hours, and those that are not destroyed retreat to Saudi Arabia. The emir of Kuwait, his family, and other government leaders also flee to Saudi Arabia, and within hours Kuwait City is captured and the Iraqis establish a provincial puppet government. In Washington DC it is still 01 August when at 20:00 President Bush Sr. is notified.\nThe same day, the UN Security Council unanimously denounces the invasion, and demands Iraq's immediate withdrawal from Kuwait. On 09 August, Operation Shield, the US defense of Saudi Arabia, would begin as US forces race to the Persian Gulf. On 29 November 1990, the UN Security Council passed a resolution authorizing the use of force against Iraq if it failed to withdraw from Kuwait by 15 January 1991.\nAt 21:30 UT on 16 January 1991, Operation Desert Storm, a massive US-led offensive against Iraq, began as the first fighter aircraft were launched from Saudi Arabia and from US and British aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf. All evening, aircraft from the US-led military coalition pounded targets in and around Baghdad as the world watched the events transpire on television footage transmitted live via satellite from Baghdad and elsewhere.\nOperation Desert Storm was conducted by an international coalition under the command of US General Norman Schwarzkopf and featured forces from thirty-two nations, including Britain, Egypt, France, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait. Over the next six weeks, the allied force engaged in a massive air war against Iraq's military and civil infrastructure, encountering little effective resistance from the Iraqi air force. Iraqi ground forces were also helpless during this stage of the war, and Saddam Hussein's only significant retaliatory measure was the launching of SCUD missile attacks against Israel and Saudi Arabia. Saddam hoped that the missile attacks would provoke Israel, and thus other Arab nations, to enter the conflict; however, at the request of the US, Israel remained out of the war.\nOn 24 February 1991, a massive coalition ground offensive began and Iraq's outdated and poorly supplied armed forces were rapidly overwhelmed. By the end of the day, the Iraqi army had effectively folded, ten thousand of its troops were held as prisoners, and a US air base had been established deep inside Iraq. After less than four days, Kuwait was liberated and the majority of Iraq's armed forces had either been destroyed, surrendered, or retreated to Iraq.\nOn 28 February, US President George Bush declared a cease-fire, and on 03 April, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 687, specifying conditions for a formal end to the conflict. According to the resolution, Bush's cease-fire would become official, some sanctions would be lifted, but the ban on Iraqi oil sales would continue until Iraq destroyed its weapons of mass destruction under UN supervision. On 06 April, Iraq accepted the resolution, and, on 11 April, the Security Council declared it in effect; although in later years Saddam Hussein frequently violated the terms of the peace agreement.\nIn the Persian Gulf War, 148 US soldiers were killed and 457 wounded. The other allied nations suffered about 100 deaths combined during Operation Desert Storm. There are no official figures for the number of Iraqi casualties, but it is believed that at least 25'000 soldiers were killed and more than 75'000 were wounded, making it one of the most one-sided military conflicts in history. It is estimated that 100'000 Iraqi civilians died from wounds or from lack of adequate water, food, and medical supplies directly attributable to the Persian Gulf War. In the ensuing years, more than one million Iraqi civilians have died as a result of the continuing UN sanctions.\n1989 NASA confirmed Voyager 2's discovery of 3 more moons of Neptune designated temporarily 1989 N2, 1989 N3 and 1989 N24\n1989 Teodoro Obiang jura su cargo de presidente de Guinea Ecuatorial.\n1987 El presidente peruano, Alan Garc\u00eda, anuncia la nacionalizaci\u00f3n de 10 bancos, 17 compa\u00f1\u00edas de seguros y 6 entidades financiera\n1984 El Alto Volta se convierte en la Rep\u00fablica Democr\u00e1tica de Burkina Faso.\n1982 Firma de un acuerdo colectivo de seguridad entre los pa\u00edses \u00e1rabes del golfo P\u00e9rsico.\n1971 Nixon administration acknowledges secret army in Laos ^top^\nThe Nixon administration officially acknowledges that the CIA is maintaining a force of 30'000 'irregulars' fighting the Communist Pathet Lao in Laos. The CIA trained and equipped this force of mountain tribesman, mostly from the Hmong tribe, to fight a secret war against the Communists and to sever the Ho Chi Minh Trail into South Vietnam. According to a once top-secret report released this date by the US Defense and State Departments, US financial involvement in Laos had totaled $284,200'000 in 1970.\n1965 Newsman Morley Safer films the destruction of a Vietnamese village by US Marines.\n1964 Race riot in Jersey City NJ\n1964 North Vietnamese torpedo boats attack US destroyer ^top^\nNorth Vietnamese torpedo boats reportedly attack the destroyer USS Maddox (DD-731).\nThe American ship had been cruising around the Tonkin Gulf monitoring radio and radar signals following an attack by South Vietnamese PT boats on North Vietnamese facilities on Hon Me and Hon Nhieu Islands (off the North Vietnamese coast) under Oplan 34A. US crews interpreted one North Vietnamese message as indicating that they were preparing \"military operations,\" which the Maddox's Captain John Herrick assumed meant some sort of retaliatory attack. His superiors ordered him to remain in the area.\nEarly that afternoon, three North Vietnamese patrol boats began to chase the Maddox. At about 15:00, Captain Herrick ordered his crew to commence firing as the North Vietnamese boats came within 10'000 yards of his ship; at the same time he radioed the aircraft carrier USS Ticonderoga for air support. The North Vietnamese boats each fired one torpedo at the Maddox, but two missed and the third failed to explode. US gunfire hit one of the North Vietnamese boats, and then three US Crusader jets proceeded to strafe them. Within 20 minutes, Maddox gunners sunk one of the boats and two were crippled; only one bullet hit the Maddox and there were no US casualties. The Maddox was ordered to withdraw and await further instructions.\nIn Washington, President Lyndon B. Johnson, alarmed by this situation, at first rejected any reprisals against North Vietnam. In his first use of the \"hot line\" to Russia, Johnson informed Khrushchev that he had no desire to extend the conflict. In the first US diplomatic note ever sent to Hanoi, Johnson warned that \"grave consequences would inevitably result from any further unprovoked offensive military action\" against US ships \"on the high seas.\" Meanwhile, the US military command took several critical actions. US combat troops were placed on alert and additional fighter-bombers were sent to South Vietnam and Thailand. The carrier USS Constellation was ordered to the South China Sea to join the USS Ticonderoga. Admiral US Grant Sharp, commander of the Pacific Fleet, ordered a second destroyer, the USS C. Turner Joy, to join the Maddox on station and to make daylight approaches to within 13 km of North Vietnam's coast and 6 km of its islands to \"assert the right of freedom of the seas.\"\n1961 El Gobierno argentino cancela los poderes concedidos al Ej\u00e9rcito para poner fin a las actividades subversivas.\n1950 Ford gears up for military production for the Korean war. ^top^\nThe Ford Motor Company created the Defense Products Division in order to handle the large number of government contracts related to the Korean War. The conversion from automobile manufacture to weapons production had already been made several times in history, including during World War II, when civilian automobile production in the US virtually ceased as manufacturers began turning out tanks instead.\n1950 The US First Provisional Marine Brigade arrives in Korea from the United States.\n1945 Potsdam Conference concludes ^top^\nThe last wartime conference of the \"Big Three\" \u0097 the Soviet Union, the United States, and Great Britain \u0097 concludes after two weeks of intense and sometimes acrimonious debate. The conference failed to settle most of the important issues at hand and thus helped set the stage for the Cold War that would begin shortly after World War II came to an end. The meeting at Potsdam was the third conference between the leaders of the Big Three nations. The Soviet Union was represented by Joseph Stalin, Britain by Winston Churchill, and the United States by President Harry S. Truman. This was Truman's first Big Three meeting. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who died in April 1945, attended the first two conferences \u0097 in Tehran in 1943 and Yalta in February 1945.\nAt the Potsdam meeting, the most pressing issue was the postwar fate of Germany. The Soviets wanted a unified Germany, but they also insisted that Germany be completely disarmed. Truman, along with a growing number of US officials, had deep suspicions about Soviet intentions in Europe. The massive Soviet army already occupied much of Eastern Europe. A strong Germany might be the only obstacle in the way of Soviet domination of all of Europe. In the end, the Big Three agreed to divide Germany into three zones of occupation (one for each nation), and to defer discussions of German reunification until a later date. The other notable issue at Potsdam was one that was virtually unspoken. Just as he arrived for the conference, Truman was informed that the United States had successfully tested the first atomic bomb. Hoping to use the weapon as leverage with the Soviets in the postwar world, Truman casually mentioned to Stalin that America was now in possession of a weapon of monstrously destructive force. The president was disappointed when the Soviet leader merely responded that he hoped the United States would use it to bring the war with Japan to a speedy end.\nThe Potsdam Conference ended on a somber note. By the time it was over, Truman had become even more convinced that he had to adopt a tough policy toward the Soviets. Stalin had come to believe more strongly that the United States and Great Britain were conspiring against the Soviet Union. As for Churchill, he was not present for the closing ceremonies. His party lost in the elections in England, and he was replaced midway through the conference by the new prime minister, Clement Attlee. Potsdam was the last postwar conference of the Big Three.\n1943 JFK's courage after the sinking of PT-109\nNear the Solomon Islands, a US Navy torpedo boat, under the command of Lieutenant John F. Kennedy, was rammed and cut in half by the Japanese destroyer Amagiri. The PT-109 torpedo boat was attached to an Allied convoy in the Blackett Strait, and had attempted an attack on the Japanese destroyer early in the morning when it was rammed.\nKennedy, 27, son of Joseph P. Kennedy, the former US ambassador to Great Britain, directed the rescue of the crew and personally saved one man who was seriously injured. After five hours of swimming, Kennedy led the survivors came to an island. There, they tended their wounds and then swam to a second island where they were more likely to be seen. When nobody spotted them there, Kennedy and another sailor swam to a third island, where they met two natives who carried a message that Kennedy carved on a coconut to an Australian coast watcher.\nSix days after the accident, a US Navy vessel rescued them. For his heroism Kennedy was promoted to full lieutenant and awarded the Navy and Marines Corps Medal. Honorably discharged from the US Navy in 1945, he served as a journalist before being elected to the House of Representatives as a Massachusetts Democrat in 1946. In 1952, he moved up to the Senate, and in 1960, was elected the thirty-fifth president of the United States.\n1942 \"Mexican biological tendency to murder\" means racism in LA\nTwenty-two Mexican men are arrested in Los Angeles for conspiring to kill Jos\u00e9 Diaz, whose body was found the previous night at the Sleepy Lagoon reservoir. Despite a lack of evidence, 24 Mexicans would eventually be prosecuted for beating Diaz to death. The trial and subsequent convictions characterized a period of racial prejudice and injustice in Los Angeles during World War II.\nMedia coverage surrounding the trial was particularly racist. The Los Angeles Examiner referred to young Mexican Americans as \"juvenile delinquents.\" A captain from the Los Angeles Sheriff's office told a grand jury that Mexicans had a \"biological tendency\" to be violent since they were descendants of Indian tribes who practiced human sacrifice. He went on to say that they had a \"total disregard for human life\" and an inbred \"desire to use a knife or some lethal weapon. In other words, a Mexican's desire is to kill, or at least, let blood.\"\nDespite the concerted efforts of a defense committee that had been put together by liberal activists and Hollywood actors, 12 of the accused were convicted and sent to San Quentin prison. Over the course of the following year, hostility between Caucasians and Hispanics became so inflamed by the press, police, and city officials that the so-called \"zoot suit riots\" broke out the next summer.\nAllegedly, 11 sailors had been attacked by a group of Mexicans wearing zoot suits-long coats with exaggerated shoulder pads and loose pleated pants. On 04 June 1943, 200 Navy sailors responded by combing the streets in cabs, stopping to beat anyone wearing the popular Hispanic outfit. These unprovoked attacks continued for several days. On 07 June, The Los Angeles Examiner reported that Mexicans would be out to retaliate, causing a civilian panic.\nThe following day, the Los Angeles City Council passed an ordinance that made wearing a zoot suit a misdemeanor. Finally, on 09 June, US military commanders restricted military personnel to their bases in Los Angeles, and the turmoil ended.\nA court of appeals eventually overturned the convictions of all 12 of the defendants in the Sleepy Lagoon case, and they were released after two years in prison.\n1941 Jews are expelled from Hungarian Ruthenia.\n1939 Einstein urges US atomic action\nFrom his home in Long Island, New York, German-born physicist Albert Einstein writes to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, urging \"watchfulness and, if necessary, quick action\" on the part of the United States in atomic research. Einstein, a lifelong pacifist, feared that Nazi Germany had begun work on an atomic bomb. Einstein's theories of special and general relativity drastically altered man's understanding of the universe, and his work in particle and energy theory helped make possible quantum mechanics and early atomic research. As a German-born Jew, Einstein fled Germany for the United States after Nazi leader Adolf Hitler seized power in 1934. In the summer of 1939, fellow expatriate physicists Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, and Edward Teller, profoundly disturbed by the lack of American atomic action, enlisted the aid of Einstein, hoping that a letter from such a renowned scientist would help attract Roosevelt's attention. Einstein agreed to the venture because of his fear of sole Nazi possession of the deadly weapon, a possibility that became especially troubling after Germany ceased the sale of uranium ore from occupied Czechoslovakia. After reading Einstein's letter, Roosevelt created the Uranium Committee, and in 1942 the highly secret US and British atomic program became known as the Manhattan Project. Einstein had no role in the Allied atomic bomb program. On 16 July 1945, an international team of scientists successfully tested the world's first atomic bomb in the New Mexico desert. Three weeks later, two US atomic bombs were dropped on Japan, one on 06 August and one on 09 August, resulting in the eventual deaths of more than 200'000 people. Albert Einstein deplored the use of the deadly weapon against the population centers of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and after the war he urged international control of atomic weapons.\n1939 Hatch Act prohibits political activity by US federal workers.\n1934 first airborne train: plane tows 3 mail gliders behind it.\n1934 Hitler becomes F\u00fchrer ^top^\nChancellor Adolf Hitler becomes sole master of Germany, following the death of President Paul von Hindenburg. The German Army swore allegiance to the F\u00fchrer, who was intent on the rearmament of Germany and territorial expansion. In less than a decade, the Nazis had risen from a splinter party to a dominant ruling party that had won a 90% approval vote in 1932, allowing Hitler to seize powers previously divided among president, chancellor, and the Reichstag.\nWith the death of German President Paul von Hindenburg, Chancellor Adolf Hitler becomes absolute dictator of Germany under the title of F\u00fchrer, or \"Leader.\" The German army took an oath of allegiance to its new commander-in-chief, and the last remnants of Germany's democratic government were dismantled to make way for Hitler's Third Reich. The F\u00fchrer assured his people that the Third Reich would last for a thousand years, but Nazi Germany collapsed just 11 years later.\nAdolf Hitler was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria, on 20 April 1889. As a young man he aspired to be a painter, but he received little public recognition and lived in poverty in Vienna. Of German descent, he came to detest Austria as a \"patchwork nation\" of various ethnic groups, and in 1913 he moved to the German city of Munich in the state of Bavaria. After a year of drifting, he found direction as a German soldier in World War I, and was decorated for his bravery on the battlefield. He was in a military hospital in 1918, recovering from a mustard gas attack that left him temporarily blind, when Germany surrendered.\nHe was appalled by Germany's defeat, which he blamed on \"enemies within\" \u0097 chiefly German communists and Jews \u0097 and was enraged by the punitive peace settlement forced on Germany by the victorious Allies. He remained in the German army after the war, and as an intelligence agent was ordered to report on subversive activities in Munich's political parties. It was in this capacity that he joined the tiny German Workers' Party, made up of embittered army veterans, as the group's seventh member. Hitler was put in charge of the party's propaganda, and in 1920 he assumed leadership of the organization, changing its name to Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (National Socialist German Workers' party), which was abbreviated to Nazi.\nThe party's socialist orientation was little more a ploy to attract working-class support; in fact, Hitler was fiercely right-wing. But the economic views of the party were overshadowed by the Nazis' fervent nationalism, which blamed Jews, communists, the Treaty of Versailles, and Germany's ineffectual democratic government for the country's devastated economy. In the early 1920s, the ranks of Hitler's Bavarian-based Nazi party swelled with resentful Germans. A paramilitary organization, the Sturmabteilung (SA), was formed to protect the Nazis and intimidate their political opponents, and the party adopted the ancient symbol of the swastika as its emblem.\nIn November 1923, after the German government resumed the payment of war reparations to Britain and France, the Nazis launched the \"Beer Hall Putsch\" \u0097 an attempt at seizing the German government by force. Hitler hoped that his nationalist revolution in Bavaria would spread to the dissatisfied German army, which in turn would bring down the government in Berlin. However, the uprising was immediately suppressed, and Hitler was arrested and sentenced to five years in prison for treason.\nImprisoned in Landsberg fortress, he spent his time there dictating his autobiography, Mein Kampf (My Struggle), a bitter and rambling narrative in which he sharpened his anti-Semitic and anti-Marxist beliefs and laid out his plans for Nazi conquest. In the work, published in a series of volumes, he developed his concept of the F\u00fchrer as an absolute dictator who would bring unity to German people and lead the \"Aryan race\" to world supremacy.\nPolitical pressure from the Nazis forced the Bavarian government to commute Hitler's sentence, and he was released after nine months. However, Hitler emerged to find his party disintegrated. An upturn in the economy further reduced popular support of the party, and for several years Hitler was forbidden to make speeches in Bavaria and elsewhere in Germany.\nThe onset of the Great Depression in 1929 brought a new opportunity for the Nazis to solidify their power. Hitler and his followers set about reorganizing the party as a fanatical mass movement, and won financial backing from business leaders, for whom the Nazis promised an end to labor agitation. In the 1930 election, the Nazis won six million votes, making the party the second largest in Germany. Two years later, Hitler challenged Paul von Hindenburg for the presidency, but the 84-year-old president defeated Hitler with the support of an anti-Nazi coalition.\nAlthough the Nazis suffered a decline in votes during the November 1932 election, Hindenburg agreed to make Hitler chancellor in January 1933, hoping that Hitler could be brought to heel as a member of his cabinet. However, Hindenburg underestimated Hitler's political audacity, and one of the new chancellor's first acts was to exploit the burning of the Reichstag (parliament) building as a pretext for calling general elections. The police under Nazi Hermann Goering suppressed much of the party's opposition before the election, and the Nazis won a bare majority. Shortly after, Hitler took on dictatorial power through the Enabling Acts.\nChancellor Hitler immediately set about arresting and executing political opponents, and even purged the Nazis' own SA paramilitary organization in a successful effort to win support from the German army. With the death of President Hindenburg on 02 August 1934, Hitler united the chancellorship and presidency under the new title of F\u00fchrer. As the economy improved, popular support for Hitler's regime became strong, and a cult of F\u00fchrer worship was propagated by Hitler's capable propagandists.\nGerman remilitarization and state-sanctioned anti-Semitism drew criticism from abroad, but the foreign powers failed to stem the rise of Nazi Germany. In 1938, Hitler implemented his plans for world domination with the annexation of Austria, and in 1939 Germany seized all of Czechoslovakia. Hitler's invasion of Poland on 01 September 1939, finally led to war with Germany and France. In the opening years of World War II, Hitler's war machine won a series of stunning victories, conquering the great part of continental Europe. However, the tide turned in 1942 during Germany's disastrous invasion of the USSR.\nBy early 1945, the British and Americans were closing in on Germany from the west, the Soviets from the east, and Hitler was holed up in a bunker under the chancellery in Berlin awaiting defeat. On April 30, with the Soviets one kilometer from his headquarters, Hitler committed suicide with Eva Braun, his mistress whom he married the night before.\nHitler left Germany devastated and at the mercy of the Allies, who divided the country and made it a major battlefield of Cold War conflict. His regime exterminated nearly six millions Jews and an estimated 250'000 Gypsies in the Holocaust, and an indeterminable number of Slavs, political dissidents, disabled persons, homosexuals, and others deemed unacceptable by the Nazi regime were systematically eliminated. The war Hitler unleashed upon Europe took even more lives \u0097 close to 20 million persons killed in the USSR alone. Adolf Hitler is reviled as one of history's greatest villains.\n1931 El pueblo catal\u00e1n aprueba en refer\u00e9ndum el Estatuto de autonom\u00eda de Catalu\u00f1a.\n1921 Cesa la resistencia espa\u00f1ola en Nador, triste episodio de la guerra de Marruecos.\n1921 Lenin llama a los trabajadores de los pa\u00edses industrializados para que se movilicen urgentemente en ayuda de Rusia, amenazada por el hambre tras varios a\u00f1os de cosechas catastr\u00f3ficas.\n1921 A jury in Chicago acquits several former members of the Chicago White Sox baseball team and two others of conspiring to defraud the public in the notorious \"Black Sox\" scandal.\n1918 A British force lands in Archangel, Russia, to support White Russian opposition to the Bolsheviks.\n1914 Sherlock Holmes Adventure His Last Bow\n1914 Germany invades Luxembourg.\n1909 Army Air Corps formed as Army takes first delivery from Wright Brothers\n1909 first Lincoln head pennies minted\n1907 The Vatican issued the decree Ne temere, declaring that marriages of Catholics were valid only if celebrated before a duly qualified priest and at least two witnesses.\n1903 Unsuccessful uprising of Macedonians against Turkey\n1869 George Eliot begins Middlemarch ^top^\nEliot, born Mary Ann Evans in Warwickshire, England, in 1819, attended several schools, then lived with her father in Coventry in 1841 after her mother's death. In Coventry, Eliot grew close with her neighbors, the radical intellectual Bray family. With their encouragement, Eliot began writing translations and reviews. After her father's death in 1849, she moved to London to become a freelance writer. There, she boarded with the family of John Chapman, who had published some of her work.\nIn 1842 Chapman purchased the Westminster Review, which Eliot edited for three years. About this time, Eliot became involved with married journalist and writer George Henry Lewes. Divorce was extremely difficult in Victorian England, so Lewes and Eliot lived together but never married. Her polite Victorian acquaintances refused to call on her. Fearful that her unconventional relationship would provoke unfair criticism of her work, she began publishing fiction under the pseudonym George Eliot.\nHer earliest published fiction, several rural sketches, were published as a book, Scenes of Clerical Life (1858). Her first full-length novel, Adam Bede, was published in 1859. It was well received, as were most of her six other novels, including The Mill on the Floss(1869) and Silas Marner (1861). Middlemarch, published in eight parts from 1871 to 1872, was Eliot's greatest work. The novel presented a sweeping survey of all social classes in a rural town, drawing psychological insights that set the stage for the modern novel.\nAfter Lewes' death in 1878, Eliot married John Cross, her investment manager who was some 20 years her junior. She died seven months later\nSilas Marner DUPLICATE SITES:\nPDF SITES:\nMiddlemarch (zipped)\nThe Mill on the Floss (zipped)\nSilas Marner (zipped)\n1865 C.S.S. Shenandoah learns that the Civil War is over\nThe captain and crew of the C.S.S. Shenandoah, still prowling the waters of the Pacific in search of Yankee whaling ships, is finally informed by a British vessel that the South has lost the war. The Shenandoah was the last major Confederate cruiser to set sail. Launched as a British vessel in September 1863, it was purchased by the Confederates and commissioned in October 1864. The 70-meter-long craft was armed with eight large guns and had a crew of 73.\nCommanded by Captain James I. Waddell, the Shenandoah steered toward the Pacific and targeted Yankee whaling ships. Waddell enjoyed great success, taking six ships in the South Pacific before slipping into Melbourne, Australia, for repairs in January 1865. Within a month, the Shenandoah was back on the loose, wreaking havoc in the waters around Alaska. The Rebel ship captured 32 additional Union vessels, most of which were burned. The damage was estimated at $1.6 million, a staggering figure in such a short period of time. Although the crew heard rumors that the Confederate armies had surrendered, Waddell continued to fight.\nHe finally accepts an English captain's report on this day. The Shenandoah pulled off another remarkable feat by sailing from the northern Pacific all the way to Liverpool, England, without stopping at any ports. Arriving on November 6, Waddell surrendered his ship to British officials.\n1864 Cavalry skirmish at Hancock Maryland\n1862 Union General John Pope captures Orange Court House, Virginia.\n1862 The Army Ambulance Corps is established by Maj.

The appearance of a store in their midst was resented by the area's inhabitants, so Altman attempted to appease them by making his business resemble a Florentine palace. Despite Altman's efforts \u0097 he even left the name of his store off the outside of the building \u0097 residents moved to new homes farther up the block.\nThe stores, however, kept coming, many outfitted in facades meant to mesh with the tony neighborhood. Along with Oppenheim Collins (1907) and McCreeery's (1913), Tiffany's opened a jewelry store decked out with an entrance that closely echoed the Palazzo Vendramini in Venice. With the opening of the new Lord and Taylor building, which was embraced and even praised in spite of its overtly commercial facade, the era of obfuscation drew to a close. Owners of the block's small stores followed suit, retrofitting their swank exteriors with large display windows. By the dawn of World War I, however, Fifth Avenue had arrived as a hot-spot for high-class shopping; rents skyrocketed and the small businesses were all but crowded out by big stores able to afford such prime real estate.\n1819 The first parachute jump from a balloon is made by Charles Guille in New York City. >\n1814 Estalla en Cuzco un movimiento rebelde indio que estuvo a punto de conseguir la independencia de Per\u00fa.\n1802 Napol\u00e9on Bonaparte is proclaimed \"Consul for Life\" by the French Senate after a plebiscite from the French people.\n1798 British under Adm Horatio Nelson beat French at Battle of Nile\n1776 Formal signing of the Declaration of Independence\n1718 Se firma la Cu\u00e1druple Alianza, tratado entre Inglaterra, Holanda, Francia y Austria, para frenar la ambici\u00f3n de Espa\u00f1a y mantener el statu quo de los tratados de Utrecht y Radstadt.\n1704 Tropas anglo-holandesas inician el ataque del pe\u00f1\u00f3n de Gibraltar durante la Guerra de Sucesi\u00f3n espa\u00f1ola.\n1553 An invading French army is destroyed at the Battle of Marciano in Italy by an imperial army.\n1552 The treaty of Passau gives religious freedom to Protestants living in Germany.\n1492 Jews are expelled from Spain by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella\n1483 Bula de Sixto IV nombrando a fray Tom\u00e1s de Torquemada inquisidor general de Castilla y Le\u00f3n, cargo que hizo extensivo a Arag\u00f3n, Catalu\u00f1a y Valencia por bula de 17 de octubre del mismo a\u00f1o, con lo que fue el primer inquisidor general para toda Espa\u00f1a.\n1385 Primera corrida de toros en Pamplona: un cristiano y un moro, llegados de Zaragoza, lidian y matan dos toros en presencia del rey Carlos II de Navarra.\n1375 first roller skating rink opens (London)\n\u0097 47 BC Caesar defeats Pharnaces at Zela in Syria and declares, \"veni, vidi, vici,\" (I came, I saw, I conquered).\n\u0097 216 BC Hannibal Barca wins his greatest victory over the Romans at Cannae. \u0097 Las tropas romanas son derrotadas en la batalla de Cannas por el ej\u00e9rcito cartagin\u00e9s de An\u00edbal durante la II Guerra P\u00fanica.\n2003 Ali Hussein Saleh, by a bomb exploding in his car, in Lebanon south of Beirut.

His presidential terms were wracked by political instability, economic depression, and the rise to power of Adolf Hitler, whom he appointed chancellor in 1933, and who now takes over completely.\nHindenburg's life was one immersed in the Prussian military tradition. His father was a Prussian officer, and Hindenburg fought in the Seven Weeks' War (with Austria) at age 19, and later in the Franco-Prussian War. He was eventually promoted to the rank of general before retiring from the military in 1911. But it was during World War I that Hindenburg came to national prominence.\nHe was asked to serve as the superior to Major General Erich Ludendorff, a prominent army strategist. Ludendorff succeeded in driving Russian invaders from East Prussia-but it was Hindenburg who was given the credit. As the war progressed, Hindenburg's stature grew to epic proportions, even influencing Emperor Wilhelm II to make him commander of all land forces, despite Hindenburg's rather dubious strategic skills. In fact, severe miscalculations on Hindenburg's part resulted in Germany's defeat, which Hindenburg then blamed on Ludendorff. (And which Ludendorff and the generals then blamed on the politicians.)\nA monarchist fond of authoritarian regimes, Hindenburg nevertheless took the reigns of the postwar republican government as president in 1925. Fearful of social unrest (from both the far right and far left), in light of the Depression and the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles, which demanded heavy reparations from Germany as the terms of its surrender, Hindenburg authorized his chancellor, Heinrich Bruning, to dissolve the Reichstag (parliament) if necessary and call for new elections-which he did. Those new elections ushered in the Nazi Party as the second largest party in the Reichstag.\nRe-elected as president in 1932, Hindenburg had already lost the support of many of the more conservative elements in the government, who were flocking to Hitler's party, which they saw as the key to renewed German prestige and the bulwark against Bolshevism. After a succession of chancellors proved ineffectual in reversing Germany's economic slide, and gaining the Nazi support necessary to keep a coalition together, Hindenburg reluctantly named Hitler chancellor of Germany.\nHindenburg was never an ardent Hitler supporter, but he did little to impede him as Hitler began employing terror tactics in his drive to consolidate power for the Nazis. When Hindenburg died, he was still a respected figure nationwide and was buried, with his wife, at Tannenberg, the sight of the great victory against the Russians during World War I. As World War II was came to a close, their bodies were removed so that the advancing Russians would not get at them. They were ultimately reburied by Americans at Marburg.\n1923 US President Warren G. Harding, 58, of a stroke, at Palace Hotel in San Francisco, California.\nHarding had been returning from a tour of Alaska and the West Coast, a journey that some believed he had embarked on to escape the rumors circulating in Washington of corruption in his administration.\nHarding, a relatively unremarkable US senator of Ohio, won the Republican presidential nomination in 1920 after the party deadlocked over several more prominent candidates. Harding ran pledging a \"return to normalcy\" after World War I and in November was elected the 29th US president in a landslide election victory.\nConscious of his own limitations, Harding promised to appoint a cabinet representing the \"best minds\" in America, but unfortunately he chose several intelligent men who possessed little sense of public responsibility. In the summer of 1923, as Washington began discussing rumors of corruption in the departments of the Interior and Justice and the Veterans' Bureau, Harding departed on a speaking tour of Alaska and the West. On 02 August he dies of an embolism, perhaps brought on by worry over the political scandals about to explode on the national stage.\nEarly in the morning of 03 August, Vice President Calvin Coolidge would be sworn in as president by his father, a notary public, in his family home in Plymouth, Vermont. For the rest of his first term, one of President Coolidge's principal duties would be responding to public outrage over the Teapot Dome oil leasing scandal, the revelations of fraudulent transactions in the Veterans Bureau and Justice Department, and the reports of his predecessor's multiple extramarital affairs.\nThe Dow-Jones Industrial Average drops a point to close at month's low of 105.05.\n1922 Alexander Graham Bell\nScottish-born inventor Alexander Graham Bell laid the foundation for modern communications with his work on the telephone, the telegraph, and voice recording. Bell became interested in sound during his childhood, when his father developed a system to teach deaf people to speak. Later, when the younger Bell began teaching the system himself, he became intrigued with sound transmission.\nAfter moving to Boston in 1872, he teamed up with the mechanically gifted Thomas Watson to create models of a speech transmission device. A few days after his twenty-ninth birthday in 1876, Bell patented the telephone. The following year, he founded Bell Telephone Company and was immediately bombarded by patent suits. Litigation against Bell persisted throughout the life of his patents, but ultimately his claims were upheld. Later in life, he invented a device for recording sound called the \"Graphophone,\" as well as several aerial vehicles and hydrofoils.\nAlexander Graham Bell was born on 03 March 1847, in Edinburgh; and died on 02 August 1922, in Beinn Bhreagh, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada. Scottish-born American audiologist best known as the inventor of the telephone (1876). For two generations his family had been recognized as leading authorities in elocution and speech correction, with Alexander Melville Bell's Standard Elocutionist passing through nearly 200 editions in English. Young Bell and his two brothers were trained to continue the family profession. His early achievements on behalf of the deaf and his invention of the telephone before his 30th birthday bear testimony to the thoroughness of his training.\n1913 George Hitchcock, US artist active in the Netherlands, born on 29 September 1850. \u0097 MORE ON HITCHCOCK AT ART \u00934\u0094 AUGUST \u0097 LINKS \u0097 A Dream of Christmas Eve \u0097 Maternit\u00e9 \u0097 The Tulip Garden \u0097 Annunciation Lilies \u0097 The Flight into Egypt\n1908 John Roddam Spencer Stanhope, English Pre-Raphaelite painter born on 20 January 1829. \u0097 MORE ON STANHOPE AT ART \u00934\u0094 AUGUST \u0097 LINKS \u0097 Love Betrayed \u0097 Our Lady of the Watergate \u0097 Eve Tempted \u0097 The Waters of Lethe by the Plains of Elysium \u0097 Psyche and Charon\n1884 Carlo Bossoli, Italian artist born in 1815.\n1883 Pierre Auguste Cot, French artist born on 17 February 1837. \u0097 LINKS\n1880 Juan Eugenio Hartzenbusch, escritor espa\u00f1ol.\n1876 Wild Bill Hickok, 39, shot dead (from behind). ^top^\nFamed frontier lawman \"Wild Bill\" Hickok is shot from behind as he plays poker in a saloon in Deadwood, Dakota Territory. He held a pair of Aces and a pair of 8's. He dies instantly. His assailant, Jack McCall, is a local lowlife who has been enlisted by Deadwood's criminal elements to murder Hickok before he could become the town's marshal.\nBorn in Troy Grove, Illinois, in 1837, James Butler Hickok at age 18 set out for the West, where he took part in the Kansas struggle preceding the Civil War. During the war, he worked for the Union in various capacities, and earned the nickname \"Wild Bill\" for his daring style of fighting and living. Always in possession of two handsome ivory-handled revolvers of large size, Hickok earned a reputation as a formidable gunfighter.\nAfter the war, he served as a feared US marshal in the Western territories. In 1871, he was appointed marshal of Abilene, Kansas, a frontier town regarded by many as the toughest in the West. In several well-publicized incidents, Hickok, an exceptionally cool marksman, drove notorious outlaws out of Abilene the hard way, and cemented his place in the annals of frontier legend.\nAfter clearing up Abilene, he drifted around the West, and in 1873 toured with \"Buffalo Bill\" Cody's Wild West Show for five months. Three years later, he married circus performer Agnes Lake, and soon after set off alone to make enough money prospecting and gambling for the two of them to settle down. Always recognized wherever he went, Hickok's presence in Deadwood, South Dakota, was not appreciated by the town's underworld.\nOn 02 August 1876, during a poker game in Carl Mann's Saloon No. 10, James McCall shoots him nearly point blank in the back of the head. Hickok topples over backward, and the cards in his hand \u0097 a pair of aces and a pair of eights \u0097 drop to the floor. From thereon, in memory of Wild Bill Hickok, that combination of cards has been known to superstitious poker players as \"the Dead Man's Hand.\"\n\"Wild Bill\" Hickok, one of the greatest gunfighters of the American West, is murdered in Deadwood, South Dakota. Born in Illinois in 1837, James Butler \"Wild Bill\" Hickok first gained notoriety as a gunfighter in 1861 when he coolly shot three men who were trying to kill him. A highly sensationalized account of the gunfight appeared six years later in the popular periodical Harper's New Monthly Magazine, sparking Hickok's rise to national fame. Other articles and books followed, and though his prowess was often exaggerated, Hickok did earn his reputation with a string of impressive gunfights. After accidentally killing his deputy during an 1871 shootout in Abilene, Texas, Hickok never fought another gun battle. For the next several years he lived off his famous reputation, appearing as himself in Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West show. Occasionally, he worked as guide for wealthy hunters. His renowned eyesight began to fail, and for a time he was reduced to wandering the West trying to make a living as a gambler. Several times he was arrested for vagrancy. In the spring of 1876, Hickok arrived in the Black Hills mining town of Deadwood, South Dakota. There he became a regular at the poker tables of the No. 10 Saloon, eking out a meager existence as a card player. On this day in 1876, Hickok was playing cards with his back to the saloon door. At 4:15 in the afternoon, a young gunslinger named Jack McCall walked into the saloon, approached Hickok from behind, and shot him in the back of the head. Hickok died immediately. McCall tried to shoot others in the crowd, but amazingly, all of the remaining cartridges in his pistol were duds. McCall was later tried, convicted, and hanged. Hickok was only 39 years old when he died. The most famous gunfighter in the history of the West died with his Smith & Wesson revolver in his holster, never having seen his murderer. According to legend, Hickok held a pair of black aces and black eights when he died, a combination that has since been known as the Dead Man's Hand.\n1874 Heinrich Ahrens, fil\u00f3sofo alem\u00e1n.\n1832, Sauk Indian men, women, and children, followers of Black Hawk, massacred by 1300 Illinois militia under General Henry Atkinson, at the Bad Axe River in Wisconsin.\n1823 Lazare Nicolas Marguerite Carnot, born on 13 May 1753, dies a fugitive in exile.

        "raw_content": "Defeating Enemies Within\nBeloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul.1 Peter 2:11 (ESV)\nWho is this enemy? \u2026 They are the natural selfish human desires whose sole purpose is to find satisfaction outside of the influence and control of God\u2019s Spirit.\nWe hear often about spiritual warfare. Not much however has been heard about the other warfare the apostle Peter mentions in the verse above.\nThe Greek word for \u201csoul\u201d (psuche), which is the target of this battle, has the same root with \u201cpsychology\u201d. So perhaps we should pay equal if not more attention to psychological and not just spiritual warfare.\nSpecifically, our enemy in this conflict targets our minds and our emotions. The purpose is to manipulate them so that our wills direct us to behave in certain ways.\nWho is this enemy? It is an army Peter calls the \u201cpassions of the flesh.\u201d They are the natural selfish human desires whose sole purpose is to\nfind satisfaction outside of the influence and control of God\u2019s Spirit. They were part of our lives before we came to faith in Christ, and they have not left since then.\nChrist has already demolished their power on the cross. However, they refuse to surrender, but have merged into the crowd of many Christian virtues. Then under the cover of spirituality, they engage in covert operations. Once in a while they spring surprise attacks. If our souls are unprepared, we are crushed. Over time, if they keep winning these little battles, we will end up believing that we have lost the war.\nWe find out the true nature of what these enemies are often only after they have surfaced in our lives.\nPaul describes it this way: \u201cIt is obvious what kind of life develops out of trying to get your own way all the time: repetitive, loveless, cheap sex; a stinking accumulation of mental and emotional garbage; frenzied and joyless grabs for happiness; trinket gods; magic-show religion; paranoid loneliness; cutthroat competition; all-consuming-yet-never-satisfied wants; a brutal temper; an impotence to love or be loved; divided homes and divided lives; small-minded and lopsided pursuits; the vicious habit of depersonalising everyone into a rival; uncontrolled and uncontrollable addictions; ugly parodies of community. I could go on.\u201d (Galatians 5:19-21, The Message) Note that the list is not exhaustive, and it is not all of a sexual nature.\nHow can the Christian uphold the victory that has already been won by Christ on the cross?\nPeter\u2019s prescription is that we abstain from the passions of the flesh, i.e. hold back from going ahead to do what they tell us. This is a difficult thing to do if we only focus on the action (or inaction). This\nis why Peter\u2019s emphasis is that we see ourselves as sojourners and pilgrims. It is a mindset change, a renewal of our mind that might help us to exercise that restraint.\nPaul\u2019s prescription leads us to turn to another source \u2013 the Holy Spirit. When we do, we see the results: \u201cHe brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard\u2014things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.\u201d (Galatians 5:22-23, The Message)\nTaking the two prescriptions together, we see Peter telling us what we must not do (i.e. abstain), and Paul telling us what we must do (\u201ckeep in step with the Spirit\u201d, Galatians 5:25, ESV).\nNot all our troubles come from satan. When we recognise this other enemy, and arm ourselves well, we can maintain the victory already won for us by Christ on both fronts.\nPicture by Creativa/Bigstock.com\nBishop Dr Wee Boon Hup has been a Methodist pastor for 28 years, during which he was also President of Trinity Annual Conference from 2005 to 2012 before he was elected Bishop of the Methodist Church in Singapore for the quadrennium till 2016.",

        "title": "Keys of the Kingdom | Methodist Message",
        "raw_content": "One of the greatest gifts of God to the church and her leaders are the keys of His kingdom.\nWhat are keys for? To lock and unlock doors. We lock in what we want to protect and we lock out what we do not want to enter.\nLooking at the text when these gifts were bestowed (Matthew 16:13-20), we know that the words were spoken by Jesus to Peter. We find a few situations in Acts where Peter used the keys to unlock and to lock doors to the kingdom.\nFirst, at Pentecost, Peter was the one who stood up to explain to the Jewish pilgrims in Jerusalem what was actually happening in their midst. Many today believe that this was the beginning of the New Testament church, when the door was opened for the Holy Spirit to fill God\u2019s people and His church. It was to bind the legalism of man-made rules of religion and release the power of the Spirit.\nSecond, Peter played a key role in admitting Samaritans into the church. In Acts 8:14-25, Peter (and John) were sent to Samaria to check out reports that the Samaritans had believed in Jesus. Hanging on to their ethnic prejudice against those whom they considered as half-breed, the Christian Jewish leaders did not know what to make of it. Peter and John found out that indeed the Samaritans had believed. However, they had been baptised with only the baptism of John. The two apostles then baptised them in the name of Jesus, and the Samaritans were also filled with the Holy Spirit.\nThird, Peter himself was the one used by God to bring the gospel to the Gentiles in the house of Cornelius. Prepared by God in a dream to put aside his ethnic prejudice against Gentiles, the Holy Spirit led him to preach there. Uncertain about what the dream meant and still self-righteously Jewish, Peter was interrupted in his sermon when the Holy Spirit fell on those listening to him and they spoke in tongues. Seeing this as confirmation that the gospel was also for the Gentiles, Peter baptised them.\nSo Peter \u2018unlocked\u2019 the doors of the kingdom with his preaching of Jesus at these various events: to Jews, to Samaritans, and to the Gentiles. At the same time, with these actions he \u2018locked up\u2019 religious and ethnic prejudices that stood in the way of preaching the gospel to all.\nThere was one more thing that Peter did with the keys given to him: he prevented the spread of practices which could destroy the church. Following Pentecost, Jewish believers saw the necessity of providing for brethren who were in need. Some sold their property and gave all the proceeds to the apostles so that this could be done. Ananias and Sapphira were a couple who thought that they could profit from this development. They too sold their property but they kept a portion of the proceeds, probably for themselves. Peter, inspired by the Holy Spirit, saw through this deception. He confronted them, and the couple paid for the sin with their lives.\nWe build the church of God upon the masterplan that Jesus the architect has drawn out. To carry out the plan, we are given the keys of the kingdom. The church must continue to unlock doors to people not yet reached with the gospel. At the same time, we must keep a lookout for values and practices which may corrupt and cripple the church and do what is necessary to keep them out.\nPicture by laura.h/Bigstock.com\nTHE EMPTY CROSS",

Although the show is dominated by the Planes of Fame's warbirds and vintage aircraft, also the US Navy and US Air Force participated with modern military jets, the F/A-18 Super Hornet and A-10 Thunderbolt II respectively. These performed the so called legacy and heritage formation flights with their ancestors. The F8F Bearcat for the Hornet, and the P-51 Mustang and P-47 Thunderbolt for the A-10.\nThe show was divided into several themed flights. The Pacific air war was commemorated by the Victory over Japan Navy Flight consisting of the A6M Zero against SBD Dauntless, FM-2 Wildcat, F4U Corsair and F6F Hellcat. While the Victory over Europe flight consisted of P-38 Lightning, P-51 Mustangs, P-40 Warhawk, Spitfire, Hurricane, a British Hellcat and the P-47 Thunderbolt. The Thunderbolt also performed a five aircraft formation flight. The B-25 commemorated the Doolittle Raid, and also the B-17 bomber was part of the show. And finally the Hawker Sea Fury performed its aerobatic display.\nThe display was not limited to WWII though, also the Korean Air War theme was part of the show with the F-86 Sabre dogfighting the MiG-15, and the A-1 Skyraider and Tigercat from that era were also present.\nIt was a great show with probably the one of the largest selection of warbirds in a single show ever seen. Although it was very hot, the weather was great for an airshow. Glenn E. Bloore was able to shoot these superb photos.\nAdditional information about the Planes of Fame airshow and museum can be found on the official Planes of Fame website\n04/08/14 Font-size",

Members representing each military branch travel to communities across the nation to relate their personal military experiences through speaking engagements ranging from veterans organizations to schools to business groups.\n\"I've been able to do so many things in six short years,\" Murphy said. \"It's awesome, and I love it!\"\nAlthough meeting such dignitaries has been an honor for her, Murphy said that her most fulfilling assignment has been serving as a platoon leader in the 300th Military Police Company at Fort Riley, Kan.\n\"Honestly there is no better job on this earth,\" the captain said.\nWithin a few months of her arrival to the unit at the end of 2002, the 300th MP Company deployed to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Murphy served as a platoon leader for seven months before moving up to become the company's executive officer for the remainder of the year-long combat tour.\nBeing in charge of every aspect of her soldiers' lives from training and morale, to job evaluations and personal finances, Murphy said that her soldiers became her family.\n\"It was almost like I was their parent,\" she said. \"I actually call them my kids and stay in touch with them to this day.\"\nThe 27-year-old said that other aspects of military life have fit her very well.\nSports have always played an important part in her life from cross-country running and track when in high school to rock climbing and snow boarding while in college.\n\"The teamwork found among sports teams came naturally to me,\" Murphy said. \"It's very similar to the military too.\"\nMurphy's enthusiasm and zeal for life is apparent when she begins talking about all the things still on her list of things to try.\n\"My life is all about experiencing 'things,'\" she said with a smile. \"Life is too short; there are so many things out there to do, and I don't want to be limited by anything.\"",

        "raw_content": "Home Brazil Travel Guide Rio De Janeiro City Guide Nightlife Email this guide | Print the full guide\nRio De Janeiro Nightlife\nHome to Carnival, samba, and Copacabana, it's not surprising that the nightlife in Rio de Janeiro is one of a kind, and Cariocas (Rio's residents) will make a party out of just about any social gathering. Whether you're looking for a relaxing bar or lounge to sip on a couple of chopps (draught beer), or in the mood for a big night out at dancing in a club or on the streets, Rio de Janeiro has it all.\nA popular way to warm things up is to start at one of the numerous beach bars with a coconut juice or cocktail in the cooler early evening. Head off to one of Rio de Janeiro's trendy beach communities, such as Copacabana, Ipanema, or Leblon and explore the bars and clubs; but be warned, some of these places may not grant entry to people wearing shorts and T-shirts or flip-flops.\nThe clubs generally start to really heat up around midnight, so most visitors enjoy a late dinner at one of Rio's many trendy restaurants or botequim (traditional Brazilian bar) before checking out the club scene at the Rio Scenarium, Comuna da Semente, or Carioca da Gema. Lapa is a popular area for revellers, as is Gamba. Rio also has a vibrant gay clubbing scene, with many bars and clubs in Copacabana and Ipanema.\nClubbing in Rio can be expensive, but one can have a cheaper night out by sticking to local drinks. Many clubs will charge you for drinks and entry only when you leave, so keep track of what you spend. Most clubs have a dress code, and some will only allow men when accompanied by women, while most will require an ID or passport to enter.\nAn alternative to clubs and bars in Rio are the street parties. Lapa hosts a street party every Friday and Saturday night near the aqueduct on Avenida Mem de S\u00e1; and Sundays, Mondays, and Thursdays are the best nights to head to G\u00e1vea, where you'll find music, cheap beer, and many university students on the street in front of the bar Hip\u00f3dromo.\nLive music and dancing is an integral part of Rio culture, and there is a wide variety, such as samba, bossa nova, rock, MBP (Brazilian pop), blues, jazz, and much more. A quick search will reveal a gig happening somewhere in this vibrant city on any given night. You can also watch samba school rehearsal parties, where local drummers and dancers showcase their skills in warehouses for thousands of people. It's a great way to get a taste of the Carnival atmosphere at other times of the year.\nPick up a copy of a Friday edition of a local newspaper for nightlife and entertainment listings in Rio de Janeiro.",

The company, which launched its web site, first30days.com, in February 2008 currently features 60 life change subjects, including those relevant to our times such as losing a job, selling a home, starting a business, dealing with depression, smart investing, reducing debt and living frugally.\nWith a degree in economics and international relations from the London School of Economics, Ariane began her professional career at The Boston Consulting Group and worked in over a dozen countries during her tenure. After receiving an MBA from Stanford University, she moved to New York, working with media companies Bertelsmann and Sony.\nIn 2000, she joined Time Warner as the Managing Director of a new $500 million digital-media venture fund. The Fund's mission was to take equity stakes in early-stage, potentially strategic, technology companies.\nPrior to her launch of First30Days and time at Charlie Rose Productions, Ariane spent a year as a Senior Advisor on a Humanitarian Project, A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AFRICA. The project involved the top 100 photojournalists placed in the 53 countries of Africa on a single day.\nAriane's book entitled, The First 30 Days: Your Guide to Making Any Change Easier was published by Harper Collins in May 2008.

Then during arguably the movement's most challenging time since Margaret Sanger's uphill battles, she revitalized the national movement, serving as president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Federation of America.\nHer colleagues call her a \u201cpractical visionary\u201d; Fast Company magazine lauded the inclusive way she led the organization to adopt a bold new Vision for 2025. By the time she left, the organization\u2019s total combined affiliate and national organization annual revenues approached one billion. Her call to \"fight forward\" scored insurance coverage for contraceptives and accessible emergency contraception. She initiated the Prevention First Act and reintroduction of a new, improved Freedom of Choice Act. She understands politics from the ground up--the 2004 March for Women's Lives which she helped to spearhead brought over 1.2 million men, women, and families to Washington, the largest protest march in American history--and also served as president of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, which she grew into the largest nonpartisan pro-choice action fund and Political Action Committee.\nAmong her honors, Vanity Fair magazine named Gloria one of America's \"top 200 women legends, leaders, and trailblazers\".

You can read The Mormon Curtain FAQ to understand the purpose of this website.\nHOME AND VISITING TEACHING\nMormons are commanded to Home Teach and Visit Teach. Males are considered Home Teachers, women are considered Visiting Teachers.

Males are considered Home Teachers, women are considered Visiting Teachers.\nTwo Mormon Church Members are assigned by Mormon Leaders to visit as little as one family or as many as five familes per month. They are instructed to bring a small gospel message to each of the families. Generally these meetings are \"chit chat\" sessions with a prayer and a message thrown in.\nIn all reality, Home Teaching and Visiting Teaching is a control mechanism. Reports on the level of belief and activity of the visited families is reported to the Bishop. The Bishop can then assign more members or visit the the families directly in an attempt to increase activity.\nCurrently, most Home Teachers and Visiting Teachers fail to visit the families regularly and it is estimated less than 20% fulfill their monthly HT and VT quotas.\nOriginal Author(s): Spiritual Seeker\nNow, we are told that as HTs, we need to \"probe\" into the home teachees' life. When they said, \"we are fine,\" we are told not to accept that in face value. One leader said, \"there are always something underneath which we need to unearth. There is always something we can do to help them.\"\nWe need to \"probe\" further: (1) whether they have been reading scriptures, (2) whether they have been attending temples, (3) whether they have been following other commandments, (4) if they are not doing so, what we can do to \"HELP\" them, (5) whether they have any questions in following the commandments.\nIn short, we need to nip any doubts at their buds. The church must be losing people. We now need to check on every active/inactive member, and interrogate them on a monthly or bi-weekly basis, not just in a twice-yearly temple recommend interview and a one-year tithing interview.\nOf course, all the findings will be reported to the higher authorities.\nIt is fast becoming a police state.\nWonder whether others have received similar instructions.\nAs an adult member (I resigned at 48), I was amazed at the consistent phenomenon of home teaching in every ward I ever attended. Typically, averages are low and it remains a circular topic in quorums throughout the church. How can we improve our home teaching? Blah, blah, blah.\nI came to the conclusion that the system is flawed, not the people. If it was REALLY important, it would get done every month. Assignments would better tracked and there would be effective follow-up. To me, the program seems to be a tool to exert guilt over individual quorum members.\nWhat's worse is, even if you get 100%, the leadership is never quite satisfied. There are still things that you can do better. I've sat in lessons where they say, you need to call your families on a weekly basis or drop in two times a month. At that point, it sounded more like Big Brother than friendshipping , because at the end of the day it's still an assignment.\nIn fact, any gauge of activity can be turned against you. Leaders like to ask these types of questions: \"How many times did you go to the temple last year? Well, you know you should go once a month minimum! How many times have you read the Book of Mormon? When was the last time? How often do you pray? How often do you bear your testimony to your family?\" Mormon leadership is obsessed with checklists and worthiness interviews.\nIn general, members are chastised more than praised. That's my impression. If the church wanted to lift its members, they should work harder on building them up vs. tearing them down.\nI just feel the need to share what happened tonight to everyone in this board, which is one of the key instrument in helping me out of mormonism. Bear with me this can be long. I left the LDS church four years ago and the new hometeachers came over again unannounced, as usual. I realized how much I've grown when I stood there at the front door conversing with these two men in their suits and ties and held my grounds without feeling intimidated nor afraid to say exactly what I think anymore. What a great accomplishment for me to not lose my composure and see the dismay and frustration (maybe even anger) in the face of the older guy. The younger guy was actually very pleasant to talk to. I might have even planted a seed.\nWhen they introduced themselves, I told them that I made a request not to have any visits from them because we have left their church. They asked why and I said that there are many reasons and i don't want to ofend them with these information. They persisted and one of the reasons I gave was the segregation in Heaven... they appeared confused, so I elaborated with celestial, telestial, and terestrial. I said that I don't believe in a god that would separate us in categories of elites. If segregation is not right here on earth, it shouldn't be allowed in Heaven. Another thing I mentioned was the fact that only a man can call me through the veil to enter the kingdom of heaven, and I believe that women should be allowed through in their own merit. The older man said that is not the teaching of the church. And I said why do we practice going through the veil in that manner in the temples? The young guy chuckled and agreed with me. The older guy stepped over the boundary when he suggested that my husband is not worthy because he is not a member, but I will be allowed if I am worthy... this got my hair to stand up alittle but I kept smiling and told him that men don't need the priesthood to be a good person and that my husband is more than worthy. He is more compasionate than anyone I have ever known in the church. Maybe because he doesn't think he's better than anybody else. The older guy also said that there are many people praying for me and that he is worried about me. I told him that I take offense in that because he puts himself above me and to say that he is worried about me is disrespectful. I told him that I respect his beliefs and opinion, but he needs to extend the same by accepting that not everyone believes that their church is the only true church on the earth. When they told me I am still on the membership list, I said that I have been contemplating of removing my name, but if they leave alone, then maybe I don't have to.\nI can't believe I said all that and came out not crying or sounding apologetic. I used to just agree, afraid of making waves. I went through three years of depression and being lost, but I see now that I am stronger for it. Thanks to all of you... I was a lurker, but I was taking all the posts in and educated myself. Now it's time to give back a little. I feel strong enough to talk about my experience that maybe can help someone else. I'll write my story in another thread... For now, I must review for midterms... Thank you all.\nOriginal Author(s): Anon451\nThe following is a quote from a stake directive to the local \"priesthood leaders\" regarding home teaching.\n\"Each High Priest and Elders Quorum President call in each home teacher in Home Teaching Interview (I guess that's the new term for a PPI) and say 'AS A QUORUM PRESIDENT I HAVE BEEN CALLED BY REVELATION AND BY THE LAYING ON OF HANDS TO REPRESENT THE LORD, JESUS CHRIST. IN HIS NAME YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED AS A HOME TEACHER AND AS HIS REPRESENTATIVE TODAY I SEEK A RECOMMITMENT FROM YOU TO ACCEPT THIS SACRED DUTY AND DO IT IN A WAY THAT IS PLEASING TO THE LORD. WILL YOU ACCEPT THIS ASSIGNMENT?'\nBrethren, home teaching is not just another program. It is the priesthood way of watching over the Saints and accomplishing the mission of the church. Home teaching is not just an assignment, IT IS A SACRED CALLING. A HOME TEACHING CALL IS TO BE ACCEPTED AS IF EXTENDED TO YOU PERSONALLY BY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.\"\nCan anyone say Drama Queens? Home teaching was the biggest bore and the biggest nobody-gives-a-damn activity in the Morg. Of course going to the temple ran a close second. They can't seem to move on from step one. That is certainly in large part because they have no more steps in their repertoire.\nJust a thought. Do you suppose home teaching was invented by Joseph Smith so that he could better keep an eye (and an ear) on the sentiment of the members, to see who might be becoming \"disillusioned\"? Kind of a semi-benign secret police force. The, of course, for any wet-work he could always call in Porter Rockwell and the Danites.\nOriginal Author(s): Desert_vulture\nSunday the quorum instructor taught a lesson on hometeaching. The lesson was taken from the pamphlet \"To the Home Teachers of the Church\" a capsulized version of ETB's 1987 conference address. The instructor had us to turn to page 4, and we read \"There is no greater Church calling than that of a home teacher.\" That's funny, I thought, because not 10 minutes earlier a couple of guests to our quorum were going on and on about how one was a current SP, and the other was a former SP, and they all started the back slapping. I just stared at the floor as usual during all their self-congratulation.\nOne of the visiting SPs spoke up proudly \"One of my councilors, during his temple recommend interviews, asks the priesthood holder if they've done their home teaching that month. If they haven't, he lets them know that they aren't worthy to enter the temple.\" I didn't enjoy this latest round of add-on mormonism, but I bit my tongue, while many others in the room laughed and back slapped some more.\nThen the instructor told a story about a \"wayward\" sister, whom they had only been able to contact 2 or 3 times in the past three years or so. But they had always made an attempt and dropped off cookies some months. I found this very interesting, that a member of the SP would teach that it is ok to drop off cookies as a home teaching visit, but yet six months ago my bishop was berating me for doing the same thing, and told me my visits with cookies don't count. I guess the member of the SP outranks my bishop, so cookies to families is ok again. I don't really know for sure.\nThe instructor told us a story about Hartman Rector Jr. Apparently he was told by someone that they didn't want to go hometeaching, and Rector answered \"It doesn't matter if you want to, what matters is whether you do it.\" I haven't had time to google for the exact quote, but the point was made quite clearly. It doesn't matter to the leadership whether we do our callings with pure motives and an intent to help other people. I think they just want us to be able to put a checkmark in a little box, so none of the leaders up the ladder will get upset.\nThe last story I remember, and I was drifting between sleep and semi-conscious anger as I sat staring at the floor, was a story about his former bishop announcing in PM that he was working with a family that was having severe problems, and started asking quorum members whose hometeaching family it was. The instructor said that the bishop really made them feel bad if they hadn't visited their families that month, because another family may be having severe problems that he didn't know about. The bishop laid the blame at the hometeacher's feet. Our instructor said he was glad that he had done his hometeaching that month. Wow. I wondered if he really thought that guilt is a primary motivator to do our hometeaching. I wished I had the quote from Elder Ballard in conference talking about how guilt is an inappropriate motivator, and the Lord does not approve of it.\nAll in all, I think I dodged about three lead-balloon moments. But it was tough. I haven't been to PM for many months and wondered how my first PM as a NOM would go. It didn't go too well. I was taught false doctrine, that guilt is a proper motivator, and that hometeaching is above all other callings. I kinda wished that I'd mentioned that the both the prophet who gave the talk (ETB) and the one quoted in the pamphlet (DOM) are both dead, and according to apologists and church authorities, their words can no longer be relied on as authoritative. This is getting to be tedious to attend church. I second CF's \"slip slidin' away\" feelings wholeheartedly. Does anybody still go hometeaching?\nOriginal Author(s): Kate Hepburn\nI have mixed feelings about this program. I've had companions that I really dreaded going out with, and routes that took hours to complete. I had a VT in the South who was one of the most gracious, lovely women I've known. The first time I came to visit her, she had afternoon tea all laid out for my companion and me. I was really impressed, and I loved that there was a formal occasion, a reason for us to get together like that.\nI've also had VT assigned to me who became good friends. We had a lot in common, and possibly would have become close anyway, but the VT assignment cemented the friendship. Our VT sessions were marathon, sometimes stretching past 2 hours of laughing and excited outbursts of sharing. I frequently told my husband, \"This is what VT is supposed to be like. If I never get a good VT assignment again, I can die happy.\"\nI hadn't discovered the bloggernacle or NOM yet, and I was so hungry to talk and share my genuine, unvarnished feelings with other LDS women. In my living room with these two women it became a safe place for sharing, a haven. We talked about our concerns about patriarchy, about the inequity in the YW and YM programs, about the wonderful role models (LDS women) we'd had.\nHere in our ward, my VT's are a 70-something and a 60-something. The elder of the two is mostly deaf and has macular degeneration, so it's a rare trip out of her house to go visit teach, and I'm happy to be one of the ones she gets to visit. Her companion always asks me the same questions (Now how old is your little boy? What grade is your middle child in? How do you like it here? How long are you staying? Etc.) I don't mind answering her questions, and I usually don't mind her reading me the VT message straight out of the Ensign. She doesn't ask me to converse about it, and I can just give her a bland smile and tell her, \"Thanks for the message and thanks for coming by!\"\nBy design or by pure coincidence, my VT partner and all the women on my route are much older than I am (ranging from late 50s to late 70s)?and it is absolutely a revelation to go visiting. I've learned so much about the area where we've lived for the past 2 years that I don't think I would ever have heard except from these women. They've inspired me to delve into folklore and recording life histories. They know the art of conversation, and I feel glad to sit in on it and be a part of it. As for the spiritual message, over the past year as my beliefs have changed I've taken a sit-back-and-you-tell-me approach. I'll read maybe one quote from the message (always scanning for the token quote by a woman!) and then say, \"What do you think about that?\" or \"We hear this all the time?I don't have anything to add, do you?\" And then I smile blandly while they're offering their churchy point of view.\nFrequently, the spiritual message is tucked in at the end of the visit, and it strikes me as the low-point in the conversation. The atmosphere turns heavy and slow, and quite noticeably picks back up once we've gotten it out of the way and are standing up to bid goodbye-and come to the kitchen to taste the chutney-and oh before you go, did I show my new picture of my grandbaby?-and notice the 4-o'clocks on the way out, they finally bloomed!\nAs I move toward leaving church activity behind, visiting teaching and the unique connection to women in their homes is one thing I think I'll miss. Call me crazy.\nOriginal Author(s): Ca Girl\nToday in our ward we had a visiting teaching conference. I don't know if this is a church-wide phenomenon but in our ward, every January, we have a VT conference in RS to \"inspire\" us to improve our efforts at VT. Every sister in the ward is expected to attend - men, YM and YW fill in for primary teachers, librarians, nursery leaders etc who are women with Sunday callings. The first year we were in this ward I was in nursery and I thought \"How nice - a chance to go to Relief Society at least once a year.\" I should have known there would be an \"agenda\". When I realized we were just there to get a lashing about doing our duty in visiting teaching, I made up my mind I wouldn't go to another one, ever again.\nBut I have a client I work with who is one of my favorite people and just happens to have been called to the RS presidency in our ward. She was so excited for me to go and see this year's conference, I just didn't have the heart to ditch, like I usually do.\nThe first talk was about how we, as recipients of visiting teaching, need to be better! I couldn't believe it. The woman speaking talked about how we can make our VT's job easier by returning their calls to make an appointment promptly, always being ready on time when the VT's arrive, perusing the message before hand and having some comments ready and not keeping the VT's longer than 20-30 minutes (God forbid you treat them like real friends and talk longer than the church assigned time.)\nIMO, this is too much. I realize there is such a thing as common courtesy but I already feel that VTs are a pain in the butt. I have to clear my schedule, not just for them to come by but to go visit others. I have to stop and make sure my house is clean enough for inspection. I have to put up with two people dropping in with their little spiritual lecture every month. And now, apparently, I'm not even doing that very well. Is there nothing the church won't berate you for?\nThis whole \"new order Mormon\" thing is unraveling fast for me. I told my DH I was still willing to go to church with him on Sunday, even though I didn't believe any more, because it was so important to him. Also, because I don't think God cares where you are on Sunday. I've been using the time to teach my children some independent thoughts about what we hear at church, rather than reinforcing the church's teachings, like we are instructed to. But I can't keep it up - the fact that every Sunday I get on here and gripe about something at church is a sign to me that I'm not going to be able to go on living a lie. Usually I feel \"live and let live\" and don't want to nitpick people. But dumb things are getting on my nerves too badly and this VT thing is a big ol nail in the coffin.\nOriginal Author(s): Xyandro\nI hated home teaching. In my singles ward there was a wave of disinterest. The priesthood holders dropped out one by one, leaving the burden to be redistributed over those of us still in. Every month there would be another person added to our list. By the time I left the ward I was supposed to visit 7-8 different people.\nWe did a group meetup to make it easier. Shortly after, we had a lesson in Elder's Quorum about how that's inappropriate and we should visit every member individually in their own home. I had never liked home teaching, but that absolutely killed it in my mind.\n(The sad part was once I was actually out, I did enjoy visiting with the people; it was just the forced constraints of counterfeit \"friendship\" I couldn't stand.)\nI avoided home teaching after leaving that ward until I was married. In the married ward I was assigned the most valiant home teacher in the ward as companion, and he dragged me along every month. The only time he would talk to me was to schedule my time and tell me whether it was my turn to present the lesson. He never asked me to set up the appointments. I think he knew I wouldn't do it.\nOnce when I was feeling really mad about the whole thing (still TBM) I hid from him every Sunday for a whole month so I wouldn't have to do it. One week I hid in the bathroom for an hour and a half, another I played with my kid in nursery (they needed the help anyway). Felt guilty.\nWhen I started having doubts about the church, my wife called the Elder's Quorum President to ask him to let me skip home teaching that month. She judged (rightly) that if my companion tried it there would be a huge problem.\nThe next month, after I stopped believing all together, my companion came over yet again to schedule my time. This time I told him I didn't believe in the church and wouldn't be doing it any more, ever. He hasn't talked to me since.\nI love a story with a happy ending. :)",

        "title": "The Lowest-Tech Atom Bomb",
        "raw_content": "The Lowest-Tech Atom Bomb\nSaddam Hussein had us completely fooled, once. Prior to Desert Storm in 1991, we had monitored and embargoed his importation of high tech centrifuge and laser equipment that could be used to make highly-enriched uranium (HEU). material that -- once you have it -- makes building an atomic bomb easy. After Saddam's defeat, inspectors found that he had spent an estimated $8 billion building calutrons, ancient devices (from the 1940s) that Ernest O. Lawrence had used to make HEU for the Hiroshima bomb. (See 'Springtime, Taxes and the Attack on Iraq,' technologyreview.com, Feb. 7, 2002). Nobody had anticipated that Saddam would use such a low-tech approach.\nWe won't be fooled again. U.N. weapons inspectors, if they are ever readmitted to Iraq, will search specifically for evidence of calutron construction. A calutron is a magnetic separator that makes HEU by taking raw or partially-purified uranium and concentrating the rare and more easily fissionable isotope U-235, which makes up only 0.7% of natural uranium. For a uranium bomb, this separation is the hard part; the weapon design is easy. According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, 25 kilograms is a 'significant amount' of HEU -- an amount, they say, 'in respect of which the possibility of manufacturing a nuclear explosive cannot be excluded.' If Saddam has this much HEU, he essentially has a nuclear weapon.\nIt takes nearly two tons of uranium ore, run efficiently through calutrons, to separate 25 kilograms of HEU. Most analysts believe it unlikely that Saddam has enriched this much uranium. When his previous calutrons were discovered and destroyed, they hadn't even been finished. Thus, he probably doesn't have sufficient HEU -- yet -- for a nuclear weapon.\nUnless he is using an even lower tech approach: smuggling. In 1996, Swiss police in Zurich arrested a Turkish national and confiscated 12g of HEU. They determined that the material had been obtained in either Kazakhstan or Russia. The trail was hot, and four days later Turkish police arrested the remainder of the smuggling ring, with 1.2 kilograms of HEU in their possession.\nWhy worry? A kilogram is not a significant amount. Even smugglers need a supplier. Is there reason to think that a substantial quantity of HEU is available?\nConsider what we learned in Kazakhstan. After the Soviet breakup, a large amount of HEU was left in the republic. To qualify for the benefits of the 1968 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the government of Kazakhstan gave its stockpile to Russia for dilution and safekeeping in 1995. A year later, much to their embarrassment, the Kazakhstanis reported the discovery of another 205 kilograms of HEU. It had never been listed as missing, and no one was looking for it; it just turned up. The bookkeeping of the former Soviet states makes Enron's accounting look scrupulous. How much more HEU is still out there, undocumented? Nobody knows. That's why we worry.\nIf you have your hands on a few grams of U-235, then Saddam is almost certainly your best customer. Assuming he had spent $8 billion on calutrons to try to produce 25 kilograms, then his cost was $320 million per kilogram. That is over 12 times the market value of gem-quality diamonds.\nIn November 2001, police in Istanbul seized about one kilogram of HEU that smugglers tried to sell to undercover agents for $750,000. Why were the smugglers asking for so little? Maybe they didn't know their own worth. Or -- here's a chilling thought -- maybe there is competition, and it is a buyer's market.\nTrue, the Turkish police did intercept the HEU. But experience with drug smuggling shows that we catch only a small fraction of what is smuggled. This suggests that Saddam might even now have many kilograms. Suppose he has a significant quantity of HEU -- what could Saddam do? Uranium bombs, unlike the more complex plutonium bombs, don't require the tricky implosion method, but can employ the simple, reliable gun method. This is all explained in detail by one of the original designers of the Hiroshima bomb, Robert Serber, in his book, The Los Alamos Primer. Serber says that the critical mass for a uranium-tampered bomb is 15 kilograms; the Hiroshima bomb, which used three critical masses, was finished two years and four months after the Los Alamos laboratory opened. It was considered so reliable that it was never tested before it was used.\nFortunately for Saddam, Serber's book gives equations and tricks (such as the use of neutron-reflecting tampers, or casings) that apparently eluded even Heisenberg, the leader of Nazi uranium project. What's more, Saddam's designers have been at work for over a decade, while waiting for their supreme ruler to obtain the HEU.\nBut Saddam has no missiles that could reach the United States. What could he do with a few small bombs?\nUnlike weapons-grade plutonium, (which is typically contaminated with Pu-240, a spontaneous neutron emitter), U-235 is difficult to detect without active probing, as with a thermal neutron source). It emits alpha particles and some energetic gamma rays, but these can be shielded with lead. This makes HEU relatively easy to smuggle. The easiest way to get a bomb into the US is probably in a shipping container. We wouldn't detect it unless we were tipped off about where to look.\nLet's imagine a bad case. Saddam sets off a bomb in Washington D.C. Unlike the designers of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs, he derives great pleasure from mass death. Unlike bin Laden, he takes credit immediately for his terrorism. He announces that he has additional weapons, and that if the U.S. retaliates, he will start setting them off in major U.S. cities.\nLast month, British Prime Minister Tony Blair announced that Saddam has been seeking to buy uranium from African countries (which produce 20 percent of the world supply). This is, of course, illegal, since he has no reactors, and no legitimate use for large amounts of uranium. But why would he do this, if he already had HEU? Doesn't his interest prove that he is, at worst, rebuilding calutrons?\nNo. If I were Saddam, I would import uranium in order to give that impression, to lull the U.S. into a false sense of security, into believing that there is plenty of time. Let's not make that same mistake twice -- of assuming that Saddam is doing it in the obvious way.\nWhat hope have we? Well, maybe the Kazakhstan case was a fluke, and there is not a significant quantity of HEU available. Maybe most of the reported smuggling cases were actually fraud, or CIA sting operations designed to find out who is buying, and there is no real HEU to purchase. (A widely-reported seizure on September 28 in Turkey, 250 km from the Iraqi border, contained no real uranium.) Maybe Saddam has already made a bomb, but hasn't yet figured out how to sneak it into the U.S. Maybe Serber deliberately put plausible but misleading information into his book that would foil and delay a terrorist, and make an untested bomb into a dud.",

The mountainous north includes eight of the world's ten tallest mountains, including the highest point on earth, Mount Everest.\nNepal is truly a land of spectacular and beautiful contrasts, from the high snow-capped Himalayas to verdant tropical lowland jungle, with fertile terraced foothills between. Medieval towns and villages, treasure troves of culture and tradition, lie sheltered in this dramatic landscape.\nThe Kathmandu Valley has 7 World Heritage sites including the ancient towns of Bhatgaon, Patan and Kathmandu, the Buddist Stupas of Swayambunath and Boudhanath, and the Hindu temples of Pashupatinath and Changu Narayan. In the hills that surround the valley are Dhulikhel and Nagarkot, tranquil retreats where breath-taking sunrises and sunsets play across a Himalayan panorama.\nTo the west picturesque Pokhara is dwarfed by the majestic Annapurna Himal, with the peak of sacred Machupuchari towering over the town. Here there are opportunities from leisurely walks and boating on Lake Phewa, to trekking into the foothills to higher altitudes.\nIn the south the terai (jungle lowlands), including Chitwan National Park, are home to many indigenous animals and birds that live in the diversity of ecosystems. Explore the trails and rivers through sub-tropical Sal forest, across lush grassland and around flood plains and ox-bow lakes by elephant, canoe, jeep or walking safaris.\nActivities in Nepal include leisurely exploration of ancient towns and historic sites, wildlife safaris, more adventurous trekking in the foothills and exhilarating white water rafting on rivers that flow from the high mountains.\nAutumn (September to November) and spring (March to May) when the weather is generally mild and clear are the best times to visit Nepal.\nNepal is a destination in it\u2019s own right, or makes a superb and contrasting addition to an Indian holiday. Your itinerary can include any or all of the attractions noted here. There is a wide variety of accommodation available.

Newman was not involved with the new study.\nBut the team claims following these guidelines in childhood, particularly for screen time, is key for mental development.\n\"The link between sedentary behaviours, like recreational screen time, is unclear as this research is in the early stages and it appears to vary depending on the types of screen-based activity\". Google has also introduced new features to limit screen time and monitor use on Android devices.\nFacebook , like Google , had asked advertisers to submit an application to allow Facebook to assess their eligibility. The post went on to offer some additional details, but it remains to be seen how the roll-out will take effect.\nI think his fourball record is a little better than his foursomes, but I realise the golf course is tight.

        "raw_content": "Commentary by Aleem Ali in Brisbane, Australia\nA few career changes ago, I managed a branding and design agency. Our primary task was to help our clients communicate their organisation, product or service. We worked to create a strong brand so that people would choose our client\u2019s company or service over and above their many competitors.\nSince I ran that agency 15 years ago, much has changed in the world. But some things still hold true, and many issues have grown in scale. Talk to retailers, tour operators and educational institutions. Talk to employers. They will tell you that competition is only increasing, not diminishing. And the competition is now global, not local.\nLast year, not long after the launch of Welcoming Cities, I received a phone call from the CEO of a Regional Business Council. They outlined their challenge as follows: \u201cWe have a large infrastructure project in our community. When the project is complete, we know that we won\u2019t be able to attract enough people domestically to fill all the jobs. So, we need both a national and international solution. But we are struggling to attract people. There is a perception of our community that we are not welcoming. Because of this perception, Australian residents and migrants don\u2019t want to move here, live here, or work here. We need to change that perception. We don\u2019t just want to be a welcoming city; we NEED to be a welcoming city.\u201d\n[quote align=\"center\" color=\"#999999\"]Our international reputation of a fair go, cheering for the underdog, and boundless plains to share no longer seem to ring true.[/quote]\nThis story, or at least the sentiment behind it, seems to be a growing challenge.\nI recently met with Local Government employees of a major capital city. Their focus is on increasing social cohesion and economic participation in their region. They\u2019re concerned by political sentiment and what they perceive to be regressive policies and divisive rhetoric. One of the people in the meeting commented that \u201cBrand \u2018Australia\u2019 is damaged. There\u2019s no evidence this will improve anytime soon. We need to do something about it.\u201d\nBrand Australia needs some serious help\nThe compelling and disconcerting truth of this statement struck me. Brand Australia needs some serious help. Our international reputation of a fair go, cheering for the underdog, and boundless plains to share no longer seem to ring true. The growing perception is that we demonise people fleeing torture and trauma, are intolerant of diverse cultures, and newcomers risk vilification. Brand Australia is now associated with a fair go for some, but not all.\nTourists, international students, and skilled migrants are vital contributors to our prosperity as a nation. And when it comes to the choice of coming to Australia, or not; perception is everything. If brand Australia ceases to be open, welcoming and generous, then the damage will not only be to our reputation but also the ongoing success of our nation.\nThe time to address that damage is now. It\u2019s time to refuse small-minded, divisive politics. It\u2019s time to stop waiting for politicians to cast a vision of a generous, welcoming and inclusive Australia and to grow this work ourselves. It\u2019s time to lead. It\u2019s time for community groups, small businesses, educational institutions, peak bodies and corporations to come together. It\u2019s time to welcome newcomers to our shores and ensure that everyone can take part in social, economic and civic life.\nIt\u2019s time to be deliberate, strategic and collaborative. To put policies and practices in place that value our First People\u2019s, long-term residents and new arrivals. It\u2019s time to rescue brand Australia. More than a branding exercise, this is a renewed commitment to an inclusive, multicultural Australia.\nAwarded and recognized for his contribution to the community, Aleem Ali has spent the past 20 years seeding and mentoring the development of various programs. Aleem is currently the National Manager at Welcoming Cities, in addition to lead roles with For the Common Good, and FOUND.\nWWII Japanese Displacement Parallels Migrant Crisis\nLynne Kutsukake\u2019s The Translation of Love is as haunting as it is beautiful. Set in post-WWII Japan, the novel touches upon migration and identity issues as pertinent today as they were in 1946.\nIt is also a rare account of one of the most under-reported and darkest periods of Canadian history \u2013 when Japanese Canadians were categorized by the government as enemies and forcibly removed from their homes.\nAfter the Japanese attack on a U.S. naval base in Pearl Harbor, the Canadian government ordered the removal of male Japanese Canadians from 18 to 45 years of age from the coast of British Columbia.\nThose displaced were put in shoddy internment camps in B.C.\u2019s interior and Alberta. Camps were often made of barns or animal stalls.\nOthers were deported to Japan. Some 23,000 people had their property confiscated and were detained without charge or trial.\n[quote align=\"center\" color=\"#999999\"]Some 23,000 people had their property confiscated and were detained without charge or trial.[/quote]\nLife in Occupied Japan\nThis is the pulsing backdrop to Kutsukake\u2019s plot: the story of 13-year-old Aya Shimamura\u2019s repatriation to Japan with her father after her mother suddenly dies.\nBut there is little respite in Tokyo. As her father works long hours, Aya is often left alone. At school, she is bullied for being a foreigner and speaking poor Japanese.\nOnly one child, a feisty girl named Fumi Tanaka, befriends her \u2013 but only to enlist Aya\u2019s perfect English skills to help her find her older sister who has mysteriously disappeared.\nTogether, Fumi and Aya write a letter to General MacArthur, the American military commander who oversaw the U.S. occupation of Japan from 1945 to 1951. Theirs is one of many letters written by Japanese citizens seeking guidance in the aftermath of the bombing of Pearl Harbor and subsequent U.S. nuclear attacks on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.\nSending letters of hope\nThe letters are remarkable in how they vividly capture the cultural norms \u2013 and oddities \u2013 of post-war Japan. Topics range from sugar shortages to the difficulty in obtaining train tickets; from the evils of prostitution to the high cost of soya sauce.\nGeneral MacArthur himself never appears as a character in the book, perhaps adding to some of his mystique. Instead, readers are introduced to his trusty Japanese-American translator, Corporal Matt Matsumoto.\n[quote align=\"center\" color=\"#999999\"]\u201cSome were not kind: \u2018Get out Americans.\u2019 Some letters were written in blood.\u201d[/quote]\nMatsumoto is reserved, almost stiff at times, but inwardly feels the heavy burden of every letter-writer he translates \u2013 not always accurately - for General MacArthur.\n\u201cMost letters,\u201d Matsumoto relates, \u201ccame in envelopes sealed shut with sticky rice glue, but some were rolled up like scrolls and tied with string. Others were folded so many times they looked like strange forms of origami. Some were not kind: \u2018Get out Americans.\u2019 Some letters were written in blood.\u201d\nHis reflections on the power of words are poignant. At times, they are chillingly reminiscent of the desperation seen in the faces of Syrian refugees today, who take unimaginable risks to travel to European countries for a better life.\n\u201cIt was frightening how many people were writing,\u201d Matsumoto laments upon receiving yet another mountain of letters. \u201cAwe-inspiring, but frightening. Such faith in the power of written supplication, such faith in the power of words. There it was, a gigantic mountain of hope.\u201d\nMatsumoto\u2019s colleague is also an enigmatic character. Nancy Nogami is a cheery Japanese-American typist impatiently waiting to return to the U.S. and seems to take a liking to Matsumoto \u2013 or at least an appreciation for his down-to-earth, subdued persona, which contrasts sharply with the boisterous American GIs (a military term for American soldiers).\nLike Aya, Matsumoto and Nogami\u2019s characters struggle with the complexities of their Japanese-American and Japanese-Canadian identities. It\u2019s interesting to see how Aya and Nogami, upon meeting, immediately develop a sisterly kinship \u2013 a reflection of just how much easier it is for second-generation immigrants to identify with each other than it is for them to assimilate with young people \u2018back home.\u2019\n[quote align=\"center\" color=\"#999999\"]The exploitation of women in Japan is not a unique case.[/quote]\nAbuse of women in conflict\nThe gripping search for Fumi\u2019s \u2018missing\u2019 older sister, Sumiko, through dance halls, the black market, and the dark corners of Love Letter Alley - where Japanese women go to get notes from GI boyfriends translated - is perhaps what keeps readers most intrigued.\nOver time, Fumi realizes that Sumiko, like thousands of other Japanese young women at the time, felt compelled to leave home and make a living in Japan\u2019s high-collar entertainment industry that began thriving in light of its American \u2018guests.\u2019 Selected by a club manager from a ration line in 1946, Sumiko didn\u2019t accept the job offer immediately.\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t until Fumi developed beriberi and required special injections their parents couldn\u2019t afford that she brought out the business card he had given her,\u201d Kutsukake writes.\nThe exploitation of women in Japan is not a unique case. Over and over in post-conflict societies, women and girls fall prey to sexually exploitative situations \u2013 illegal or otherwise \u2013 that often save their families from impoverishment.\nIt\u2019s a phenomenon that thrived in post-war Japan, flourished in post-Saddam Iraq under U.S. occupation, and is growing on the battlegrounds of Syria today.\nAt its core, The Translation of Love is a story as much about pride and dignity in the face of oppression and humiliation as it is about the dark effects of discrimination, poverty and war.\nShenaz Kermalli is a freelance writer and journalism instructor at Humber College.

Hover to zoom.\nOn October 11 at the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, the designs of the 2019 Apollo 11 50th anniversary commemorative coins were unveiled with considerable fanfare by the U.S. Mint\u2019s Director David Ryder and officials from the space community.\nApollo 11 crew: Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin.\nThe designs \u2014 an obverse showing Neil Armstrong\u2019s boot print as he made his first steps on the lunar surface, and a reverse based on the famous photo of Buzz Aldrin on the moon that features his helmet visor with a reflection of Neil Armstrong, the U.S. flag, and the lunar module \u2014 were received enthusiastically by those in attendance.\nThe launching of these designs took place more than four years after the idea of an Apollo 11 commemorative program was first proposed by Michael Olson, then a member of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee in February 2014.\nNumerous world coins, beginning in 1969 with coins from Guinea and Fujairah \u2014 respectively African and Gulf nations \u2014 have honored the moon landing, continuing to the present when many nations are issuing coins marking the 50th anniversary.\nYet the moon landing has oddly never had the single billing on U.S. coinage it deserves, an imbalance Mr. Olson believed had to be corrected. Until now the event was only alluded to on the reverses of the Dwight Eisenhower and Susan B. Anthony dollars with an image of an eagle landing on the moon.\nDirector Ryder noted in his remarks at the design launch that since 1982 (when commemorative coins began to be issued again after a long hiatus), $506 million has been raised through the sale of those coins, which went to help fund museums, historic sites, and other important programs. He said that if the 2019 Apollo 11 coins are a complete sellout, they could raise $14.5 million.\nHalf of the funds raised (after all costs are first recouped) will help fund \u201cDestination Moon,\u201d a traveling exhibit of the National Air and Space Museum that celebrates the Apollo 11 mission and those that preceded, concluding in 2022 with a permanent gallery at the museum. The remaining funds will be split between the Astronauts Memorial Foundation and the Astronauts Scholarship Foundation.\nAs most coin collectors are aware, the 2019 Apollo 11 coins will each be curved with a concave obverse and convex reverse \u2014 only the second series of U.S. coins issued in this shape, after the 2014 Baseball Hall of Fame coins \u2014 and include: A clad half dollar with a mintage limit of 750,000 coins; a $1 silver coin with a mintage limit of 400,000 coins; a five-ounce, three-inch diameter $1 silver Proof coin with a limit of 100,000 coins; and a $5 gold coin with a 50,000-mintage limit.\nIn addition, there will also be a previously unannounced special two-coin half dollar set with the Apollo 11 half dollar and one Kennedy enhanced reverse Proof half dollar unique to the set, celebrating the connection between President John F. Kennedy and the U.S. space program. Only 100,000 of these sets will be made, and there will be a household limit of five sets.\nThe five-ounce piece will only be issued in Proof, while the other three coins will be issued with Proof and Uncirculated finishes. This will be the first-ever five-ounce Proof and the first curved coin of that size and with a reeded edge. Director Ryder predicted that it could sell out in five minutes on January 24 \u2014 the day the coins go on sale.\nBecause of the high level of interest in the space program among coin collectors and in the general population, reflected for example in the popularity of films such as First Man that debuted the day after the design launch \u2014 and the relative novelty of curved U.S. coins \u2014 these pieces are expected to be extremely popular. They are also expected to inject a welcome dose of enthusiasm into modern U.S. numismatics.\nDesign Unveiling\nApollo 7 astronauts.\nThe design unveiling was timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of another important space milestone, the Apollo 7 mission \u2014 the first with a manned crew of three astronauts sent into space on October 11, 1968. One of those astronauts, Walt Cunningham, who flew with Wally Schirra and Donn Eisele, was guest speaker at the design unveiling.\nDuring his presentation, Mr. Cunnigham noted:\nThis coin celebrates the work of 400,000 Americans in what President Kennedy called \u2018the most hazardous, dangerous and greatest adventure\u2019 in which we have ever embarked. I hope that people who purchase this coin will be reminded of our achievements and the sacrifices that we were willing to make \u2014 and some people did make \u2014 in service to our country and to history.\nApollo 11 design event: Thomas Uram, David Ryder, Michael Olson, Sheryl Chaffe, Kathie Scobie Fulgham, Jack Kirschenbaum, and Thad Altman.\nAlso in attendance were members of the space community and individuals who were instrumental in creation of the coin program, including: Ellen Stofan, director of the Air and Space Museum, Gabe Sherman, deputy chief of staff of NASA, several representatives of the Astronauts Memorial Foundation, including Thad Altman, its president and board members Sheryl Chaffe, daughter of astronaut Roger Chaffe, and Kathy Scobee Fulgham, daughter of astronaut Dick Scobee, Tammy Sudler, president of the Astronauts Scholarship Foundation, and Michael Olson, former Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee member and a member of the AMF\u2019s board of directors.\nThomas Uram, a CCAC member and president of the Pennsylvania Association of Numismatists, who served on the juried panel of three members from the CCAC and three from the Commission on Fine Arts that selected the winning obverse design, was also present \u2014 as was Rep. Bill Posey (R-FL) \u2014 who introduced the legislation for the coin program, and his former legislative fellow Dieter Jobe, now a Pentagon official.\nApollo 11 coin team members in front of the lunar module: Thad Altman, David Ryder, Michael Olson, Dieter Jobe, and Thomas Uram.\nTwo daughters of Alan Shepard, the first American to travel in space, were also at the event, and said they were grateful for the efforts of members of the numismatic press to publicize the Apollo 11 coin legislation and build public support for it. That support, as AMF\u2019s Thad Altman said, was crucial in getting the legislation for the coins through Congress.\nOlson Proposal Becomes Reality\nApollo 11 design event: Rick Armstrong and Mike Olson.\nMr. Olson, a lifelong coin collector who was six in 1969, first proposed the idea of issuing these coins back in February 2014 while serving on the CCAC. The moon landing had a profound impact on him, as reflected in what he wrote on November 24, 2014, in Coin Update, saying:\nNow is the time to act to ensure that the greatest achievement in the history of the United States, and some could argue in the history of mankind, is commemorated in a manner befitting its magnitude by the country that against all odds and at great risk and expense accomplished this historic feat.\nHis Apollo 11-coin proposal received unanimous support from the CCAC in 2014 and again in 2015. But that was just the beginning of a process that would take until December 10, 2016, for the legislation to be passed. It was signed into law (Public Law 114-282) on December 16 by President Obama.\nBuzz Aldrin on the Moon. Photo courtesy of NASA.\nTo get there, Mr. Olson and Dieter Jobe, then a legislative fellow on the staff of Rep. Bill Posey (R-FL), who introduced the House bill on these coins, worked with state officials and members of Congress \u2014 as well as astronauts, engineers, and others \u2014 to build support for the legislation, focusing on the specific contributions of each state and district in the Apollo 11 mission.\nMr. Olson said after the October 11 event:\nNot many thought we would be able to see this mission to completion, even after we were able to get a bill introduced in the House in 2015, but an incredible team of people from many backgrounds got it done. It absolutely needed to get done, because these astronauts, civilian workers, and our country deserved this recognition.\nThis experience has been rewarding as I\u2019ve had the privilege of working with Congress, astronauts, families, and other members of the space community, and it led to my recent appointment to the Astronauts Memorial Foundation board where I\u2019ll be able to continue with this involvement.\nI don\u2019t think it\u2019s been mentioned before so I want to recognize some journalists for helping to get the word out many times when we needed constituent support in the House and Senate. Specifically, Louis Golino, David Harper, and Robert Pearlman (of CollectSPACE) were there whenever an article was needed at a critical juncture to keep the dream alive and the process moving. They deserve much credit for our success.\nI encourage everyone to be ready to purchase these coins when they become available in January. They will surely be in great demand, and a sellout would be a great way to honor this anniversary.\nReverse and Obverse Coin Designs\n2019 Apollo 11 50th anniversary coin reverse.\nThe enabling legislation for these coins specified that the convex reverse must feature a representation of a close-up of the famous \u201cBuzz Aldrin on the Moon\u201d photograph taken July 20, 1969, that shows just the visor and part of the helmet of astronaut Buzz Aldrin. The reflection in Buzz Aldrin\u2019s helmet includes astronaut Neil Armstrong, the United States flag, and the lunar module. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, the denomination, and E PLURIBUS UNUM.\nThis design was created and engraved by U.S. Mint artist Phoebe Hemphill. On the coin, the visor will have a mirrored finish, while the design elements on it will be frosted.\n2019 Apollo 11 50th anniversary coin obverse.\nThe concave obverse design, which appears on each coin, features the inscriptions MERCURY, GEMINI, and APOLLO, separated by phases of the Moon \u2014 and a footprint of Neil Armstrong on the lunar surface \u2014 which together represent the efforts of the United States space program leading up to the first manned Moon landing. Additional inscriptions include 2019, IN GOD WE TRUST, and LIBERTY. Joseph Menna engraved this design.\nFrench coins from 2009 for the 40th anniversary of the moon landing also used the footprint, but in a much smaller, less defined form superimposed on a background of the moon\u2019s surface, rather than as depicted on the new coin with details that give the impression of the footprint going into the lunar surface \u2014 a more dynamic view.\nThe design for the obverse was selected through a two-phase U.S. Mint design competition, and the winning design was created by Gary Cooper. Mr. Cooper is a 66-year old medallic artist and sculptor from Maine. In addition to designing coins, medals, and plaques, he also has a deep interest in numismatics that began as a child in 1963. He has made several efforts at designing U.S. coins, beginning in 1998 when he proposed a flying eagle design for the reverse of the Sacagawea dollar.\nAs the designer of the obverse of the 2019 Apollo 11 50th anniversary commemorative coins, a high-profile release, his impact on modern U.S. numismatics is assured. During the design unveiling, Director Ryder said:\nHis winning design is a poignant representation of the triumphant moment that brought people together and reaffirmed our shared humanity and sense of purpose.\nThe version of his design that was selected is a slightly modified version that was requested after his original design was submitted and caught the interest of the competition\u2019s judges. In the version that will appear on the coin, the footprint is rotated slightly to the right, rather than appearing more vertically. The positioning of the inscriptions was also changed.\nInterview with Gary Cooper\nGary Cooper, designer of the Apollo 11 obverse.\nLouis Golino: What is your artistic background?\nGary Cooper: I have been an artist my entire life. When in high school I created my first plaster model of a medal for a 1970 exhibition in Arezzo, Italy. I graduated in 1974 with a Bachelor\u2019s in Fine Arts in Graphic & Industrial Design from Kansas City Art Institute in Kansas City, Missouri.\nMy professional career has been as a graphic designer and art director in consumer products manufacturing. This entailed product design and retail packaging design and graphics and printed collateral materials.\nGary Cooper\u2019s 1998 Flying Eagle $1 coin reverse design.\nIn the 1990s, I became very interested in 3-D graphics software with a particular emphasis in its sculptural possibilities. My first 3-D sculpt was in 1998: a concept for the reverse of the golden dollar coin.\nLG: What are some of your other projects?\nGC: I\u2019ve had the most pleasure working with Maine veterans who served in Vietnam, Korea, and WWII, and Maine women veterans to design and sculpt four bronze plaques in the Maine State House Hall of Flags. In 2006, I designed Maine\u2019s new Honorable Service Medal.\nI also participated in U.S. Mint design competitions for the Baseball Hall of Fame commemorative, \u201cDad\u2019s Baseball Glove\u201d (2013) and the World War I centennial commemorative dollar, \u201cCorporal Alvin C. York,\u201d and \u201cArmistice Peace Flying Eagle\u201d (2016).\nLG: I noticed you paid homage to space missions that preceded Apollo 11 in your design. Can you tell me a little about your interest in the space program and what the moon landing meant for you?\nGC: I was nine-years-old when the first American went into space and remember watching on TV many of the launches and recoveries of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo program missions. For myself, the NASA space program provided inspiration and a model for the great works and accomplishments that are possible within a nation when united in support of a grand and ambitious mission.\nThe legend, \u2022 MERCURY \u2022 GEMINI \u2022 APOLLO \u2022, commemorates the collective results of each phase of the three NASA programs in a methodological process in achieving the lunar mission\u2019s ultimate goal. The phases of the moon elements are an allegory to that linear building process.\nLG: What led you to create a design based on the famous footprint on the lunar surface?\nGC: I devoted most of my design development time drawing the footprint as though the viewer were standing directly above it, with the details in deep shadow areas made visible. The first lunar landing in 1969 was the greatest technological feat, but it was so much more than that. It was actually a sociological event. In the minds of many, including myself, the iconic image of the moon footprint evoked the sense of heroic achievement accomplished by all of humanity.\nInitial reaction to the designs from collectors \u2014 based on online comments \u2014 was somewhat mixed, with greater enthusiasm for the obverse, though one collector called the reverse design \u201cpure genius.\u201d These views likely reflect the fact that line art drawings generally do not look as good as finished products. Several collectors also lamented the fact that the year \u201c1969\u201d does not appear as an inscription and suggested a \u201c1969-2019\u201d dual date, or a reference to \u201c50th anniversary\u201d would have been appropriate.\nThe CCAC and the 2020 and 2021 America the Beautiful quarters: National Park of America Samoa The CCAC and the 2020 and 2021 America the Beautiful quarters: Salt River Bay National Historical Park The CCAC and the 2020 and 2021 America the Beautiful quarters: Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve The CCAC and the 2020 and 2021 America the Beautiful quarters: Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site",

His award was presented by minister for public health, Jane Ellison MP.\nThe event recognised heroes from across London and beyond who are leading local initiatives to improve the nation\u2019s health and well-being, and who go above and beyond to make local schemes and initiatives a success.\nNominated by Rachel Flowers, the borough\u2019s director of public health, Fred\u2019s work to improve sexual and reproductive health for the local African community outreach programme was chosen as one of three winners from a shortlist of nine London nominees.\nFred said: \u201cI\u2019ve been doing outreach work with the black African community in Croydon for about 18 years, now.\n\u201cThe aim has been to improve sexual and reproductive health, and, in particular, to reduce the stigma around HIV infection, which remains a taboo subject for many of the groups I work with.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been a matter of building trust and learning the way the communities work within themselves. Through building that trust, I\u2019ve been able to challenge long-held beliefs and increase awareness of the dangers and how they can be dealt with.\u201d\nAs HIV lead for African communities, Fred has contributed to the redesign of Croydon\u2019s integrated sexual health services, providing feedback from the community. His knowledge also informed the condom-distribution review in 2015, and HIV testing week for several years.\nOne challenging area in which Fred has been successful is in negotiating with faith leaders locally to allow HIV testing on site in faith venues.\nOf that success, Ms Flowers said: \u201cThis takes enormous relationships-building, perseverance and commitment to improving access and awareness among groups where stigma is still high.\u201d\n\u201cThis is a tremendous, and well-deserved, award for Fred who has done a terrific job of driving home the message of the importance of good sexual health among communities with deep-seated, and often out-dated, beliefs.\n\u201cIt\u2019s great that his dedication and personal achievements have been recognised, and it\u2019s also a feather in the cap of the council\u2019s ground-breaking public health work that seeks to improve the life chances of all Croydon\u2019s residents.\u201d",

(story audio)\nGail Hocking\nGail and Don Hocking\nApril 2004 update: Find out how Gail Hocking's life has changed since her surgery\nObesity Surgery Support Group of Minnesota\nNews Forum: Discuss the obesity epidemic with other MPR listeners.\nWeight loss surgery: the last resort?\nGail Hocking, 54, has battled obesity all her life. She weighed 360 pounds when this photo was taken in mid-March. Hocking decided to try gastric bypass surgery as a last resort. She underwent the surgery this spring, and has already lost more than 50 pounds. (MPR Photo/Tom Robertson)\nSome 10 million Americans are considered severely obese. That means they're at least 100 pounds overweight. A growing number of severely obese people are turning to gastric bypass surgery as a last-ditch solution to their weight woes. The procedure is controversial. It can lead to serious health complications. But supporters say the surgery helps shed pounds and save lives.\nBemidji, Minn. \u2014 Gastric bypass surgery is sometimes called stomach stapling. Dr. Daniel Smith, a surgeon in Park Rapids, has been doing the procedure for 12 years.\n\"When the person leaves the operating room, their functioning stomach is actually about the size of a ping pong ball,\" says Smith. \"And so three spoonfuls of something like cottage cheese, they'll actually be full.\"\nLast year, about 63,000 severely obese Americans had the bypass. That's nearly twice as many as in 2000.\nThe surgery isn't for everyone. Patients must be at least 100 lbs. overweight. Gail Hocking qualifies.\nIt's early March. Hocking is out of breath after simply answering the door. She's 54 and weighs 360 pounds. She can't walk to the end of her driveway without stopping to rest. Stairs are worse.\n\"When I get back up, I am puffing so bad, it takes me a good five minutes to recuperate from just a flight of stairs,\" said Hocking.\nHocking lives in rural Solway in northwestern Minnesota. She grew up on the Red Lake Indian Reservation. She remembers weighing 150 pounds in fifth grade. By age 19, she weighed 250.\n\"Schoolmates would say, 'Oh, you big fat pig,' or 'You big fat slob.' And that hurt. It hurt a lot,\" said Hocking. \"It took me a long time to learn to like myself.\"\nHocking can't bend over to tie her shoes. She never goes to the movies, because the seats are too small. She can't shop for clothes in local stores. They don't carry her size.\nI'm addicted to food. Food is my best friend. If I'm feeling happy, I eat. If I'm feeling sad, I eat. I love to cook. I mean, I got a collection of cookbooks of over 200.\n- Gail Hocking\nHocking admits she overeats. She also realizes she has an unhealthy psychological relationship with food.\n\"I'm addicted to food,\" she said. \"Food is my best friend. If I'm feeling happy, I eat. If I'm feeling sad, I eat. I love to cook. I mean, I got a collection of cookbooks there, of over 200.\"\nHocking knows her excessive weight is putting her life at risk. She's on three types of blood pressure medications. She has chronic arthritis and has had three knee surgeries. Both her parents have diabetes. She worries she'll be next.\nHocking has tried all sorts of diets, but none were successful. In 1978, she tried weight loss surgery. She lost a lot of weight at first -- 125 pounds. But then the staples popped. Her stomach got big again, and so did she.\nGail Hocking has decided to try surgery again -- this time, the popular gastric bypass. \"I figure that if I don't do it, I'll be in a wheelchair within a year,\" said Hocking. \"I'm not doing this for vanity.\"\nAn Internet search led Gail Hocking to Dr. Daniel Smith at St. Joseph's hospital in Park Rapids. It's become a regional center for the procedure. Smith does about 10 bypasses a week. Patients come from across Minnesota, Canada and neighboring states.\nHocking's surgery\n\"If you were to hang around the clinic today, probably the happiest people in the clinic are the post-operative gastric bypass patients,\" said Smith. \"You've gone from a whole set of real severe medical problems, and we really kind of turn their life around.\"\nOn the morning of Gail Hocking's surgery, she's lying flat on a table in a white operating room. Gail falls asleep, and within a few minutes, Dr. Smith and his team begin.\n\"We're making the abominal incision, and basically go through the skin and fat layer ... we'll be inside the abdomen shortly,\" said Smith. Smith separates Hocking's stomach into two sections. He creates the small pouch that will hold her food. The surgery bypasses about 250 centimeters of Hocking's small intestine. This slows down the flow of food out of the stomach.\nKaren Thompson in 1995\nThe procedure takes about two hours. Hocking will spend the next four days in the hospital. She'll be on a liquid diet at first. She'll slowly move back to solid food in the coming weeks.\nThe procedure will soon be more common in Park Rapids. The hospital plans to build an entire wing dedicated to gastric bypass patients. They're hiring another surgeon, too. By next year, they expect to do 20 bypasses a week.\nThe before and after pictures of gastric bypass patients are astounding. Success stories have gotten lots of attention in the media. But as many as 20 percent will require follow-up operations to correct complications.\nKaren Thompson is a radio DJ in Bemidji. Her listeners know her better as \"Bubbles.\" Thompson had the bypass surgery in 1995. At the time, she weighed nearly 400 pounds. Within days, an intestinal leak caused a major infection.\n\"When I sat up on the edge of my bed, two and a half quarts of green fluid and infection burst out of my stomach,\" said Thompson. \"Nurses were scrambling everywhere.\"\nThompson spent the next 32 days in intensive care. She nearly died.\n\"Surgeons paint a glamorous picture of what it is like to have this surgery, and your life is going to be wonderful,\" she said. \"There are complications, and I have had just about every complication you can think of.\"\nThompson needed more than a dozen corrective surgeries. This past March, she had a second gastric bypass. Since the first operation eight years ago, Thompson has lost 224 pounds. Now she's dropping more weight. She says despite the hell she went through, she'd do it all again.\nSix weeks after Gail Hocking had her bypass, she squats down on the floor to play with her grandchildren. It's something she couldn't do before the surgery. She's lost 50 pounds, but has severe problems with diarrhea. It's a side-effect she didn't expect.\n\"When I first come home, oh, I'd sit and cry and cry because I thought, 'Why did I do this?'\" said Hocking. \"I'd rather just stay fat and be in a wheelchair, than to have to live in my bedroom so I can be 10 feet from the bathroom.\"\nHocking now eats dramatically less. There are some foods her body will no longer digest, and she'll have to take vitamins for the rest of her life. But Hocking's face is noticably thinner, and she no longer needs to take her blood pressure medication.\nHocking says she has no regrets about the surgery. The hardest part for her is learning to deal with her lifelong issues with food.\n\"It's taking a lot of adjustment,\" said Hocking. \"I didn't realize how much I enjoyed food. There's so much that I can't eat now, that I used to just love to eat. But food is an addiction, and I'm so thankful that I have a surgical tool to help me with my addiction.\"\nHealth experts are encouraged by some new weight loss drugs now in development. But many are years away from being available. Until then, experts predict continued growth in the number of severely obese people who turn to surgery as their last resort.",

        "raw_content": "Raids Shutter Online Piracy Sites\nFriday, April 23, 2004; 9:00 AM\nU.S. and international law enforcement authorities on Wednesday conducted a series of raids against Web site operators suspected of distributing more than $50 million worth of pirated music, movies and software, a move the U.S. Justice Department described as the largest-ever crackdown on online piracy.\nThe Justice Department coordinated more than 120 searches in 10 countries and 27 U.S. states. \"Operation Fastlink\" targeted \"warez\" sites operated by sophisticated electronic pirates who specialize in securing and disseminating illegal copies of movies, music and computer programs.\nAuthorities took down the operators' Internet sites, seized their computers and collected evidence against more than 100 suspects. Authorities have not made any arrests, but expect to do so in the coming weeks, said Justice Department spokesman Bryan Sierra.\nJustice officials would not say where the U.S. raids took place.\n\"Our efforts send a clear and unmistakable message to those individuals and organizations dedicated to online theft: Real world geography and virtual world cloaking can no longer protect those who steal copyrighted material,\" Attorney General John Ashcroft said in a press conference Thursday.\nRobert Holleyman, president of the Business Software Alliance (BSA), said Operation Fastlink \"is really going to take a significant dent out of some of the top-level piracy problem.\"\nThe U.S. software industry loses at least $13 billion a year to piracy, according to BSA estimates. The group, which represents some of the world's largest software companies, including Microsoft, Adobe and Autodesk, does not know how much money the industry has lost to online piracy.\nJustice Department spokesman Sierra said that the raids were timed so that the different warez groups would be unable to alert each other and destroy evidence.\n\"In order to have the maximum impact you need to protect yourself against the fact that they can communicate instantly over the Internet,\" Sierra said.\nWarez groups are ideal targets for law enforcement because they sit at the top of the electronic piracy food chain, said Mark Ishikawa, chief executive of Los Gatos Calif.-based BayTSP Inc., which tracks online piracy on behalf of copyright owners.\nSome of the newest and hottest movies, music and software on peer-to-peer networks like Kazaa and Morpheus come from warez sites, Ishikawa said. \"It goes from that network, which is a higher-end, more computer-literate network and from there it trickles into the peer-to-peers. Once it gets into the peer-to-peers there's no stopping it.\"\nThe Recording Industry Association of America blames file sharing for taking a major bite out of CD sales, which fell from a high of $13.2 billion in 2000 to $11.2 billion in 2003, a period that matches the growth of online music piracy services. File-sharing advocates counter that the flagging economy and rising CD prices are more to blame for driving down sales.\nEric Garland, chief executive of Atlanta-based BigChampagne LLC, a company that monitors peer-to-peer activity, said the crackdown could temporarily slow the flow of material to file-sharing networks, but would not have a big effect on the average song-swapper.\n\"Most of the titles people are swapping on Kazaa and its ilk are massively popular titles that will make their way onto these networks with or without the help of these organized groups,\" Garland said.\nThe crackdown reflects the Justice Department's push to tackle the piracy problem that American software, music and movie makers say is costing them billions of dollars a year in sales. \"There has been a decision on the part of the Department of Justice to make these type of crimes a priority,\" Sierra said.\nCongress is considering two bills that would give the Justice Department more power to fight Internet piracy. A House bill would allow federal prosecutors to seek jail time for Internet users who share more than 1,000 copyrighted files. A Senate bill would allow the department to prosecute civil copyright violations.\nNew York Congressman Anthony Weiner (D), who has criticized the Justice Department for failing to go after copyright crimes, said he hoped Operation Fastlink would not be an isolated case.\n\"This is the clearest and maybe the first sign that the DOJ is getting off the sidelines and trying to fight this battle,\" Weiner said. \"This has to be an ongoing game of cat and mouse. We can't expect that today represents the end of this fight. It just represents one very good day for the cat.\"\n\ufffd 2004 TechNews.com",

        "raw_content": "WASHINGTON \u2014 Charles Pattavina, MD, FACEP, an emergency physician in Bangor, Maine, and a member of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), testified Wednesday before the Senate Aging Committee about barriers to treating older patients who are struggling with prescription drug addiction. Dr. Pattavina was invited to appear by the Chairman, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME).\n\u201cI see patients every day who are affected by this crisis, including many who are older,\u201d said Dr. Pattavina in his testimony. \u201cIt seems likely that most seniors who are on opioid medications were prescribed to them for pain as opposed to younger people who may be more likely to have started with so-called \u2018recreational use.\u2019\u201d\nThe hearing focused on the continued challenges of identifying opioid misuse among older adults, the efforts to reduce seniors\u2019 dependence on opioids, and the need to expand access to treatment for those battling addiction. Dr. Pattavina said that this part of the population is often overlooked in the current opioid crisis.\n\u201cMany perceive the face of opioid addiction as young,\u201d said Sen. Collins. \u201cThe epidemic however, intersects just as much with older adults.\u201d\nACEP strongly supports two important, bipartisan bills to ensure emergency physicians are equipped with tools they need to fight the opioid epidemic both from a prevention and treatment standpoint and provide patients with the care they need. The Alternatives to Opioids (ALTO) in the Emergency Department Act (H.R. 5197/S. 2516) implements non-opioid evidence-based pain management protocols, such as nitrous oxide, trigger point injections, nerve blocks, and other pain management options, based on the successful and proven ALTO programs already in place in New Jersey and Colorado.\nThe Preventing Overdoses While in Emergency Rooms (POWER) Act (H.R. 5176/S. 2610) would provide grants to establish policies and procedures for initiating Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) in the emergency department and develop best practices to provide a \u201cwarm handoff\u201d to appropriate community resources and providers to keep patients engaged in treatment. MAT is a proven medical treatment that can relieve withdrawal symptoms and psychological cravings of opioid use disorder.\n\u201cWe urge legislators to ensure these bills continue to be included in the comprehensive opioid package under development in Congress,\u201d said Dr. Pattavina.\nTo see the full testimony, please click here.",

If all we do is the very least required to keep ourselves out of hell, then no wonder that we do not become great saints.\nA few examples of the bare minimum:\n1) Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation\n2) Confession once a year\n3) Abstaining from meat on every Friday of the year (or doing another penance on Fridays outside of Lent)\nHere are a few ideas of how to do more for Advent, so as to make real progress in holiness:\n1) Assist at daily Mass at least once or twice a week\n2) Go to confession at least once a month\n3) Abstain from meat (or some other penance) on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, at least during Advent",

Multiplied by the number of leaves in a tree, he quickly imagined the energy potential that this could represent\u2026 The Wind Tree was born from a simple observation of nature. After that, it was just work.\nThe meeting of an inventor and an industrialist\nThe inventor\u2019s vision\nEvidence of a need and inspiration of nature or the harvest of lost energies (Energy Harvesting)\nSince 2012, J\u00e9r\u00f4me Michaud-Larivi\u00e8re has participated in the development of innovative self-production solutions by translating his previous professional experiences: image, art and literature.

At the head of a small manufacturing group, Luc-Eric guessed the full potential of the Wind Tree and gave it the industrial means to establish itself as the first and undoubtedly the most eco-friendly of renewable energy production solutions.\nWith technical skills and financial support, the Wind Tree is reborn in a new configuration.\nPresident of several professional associations and trade unions, deputy mayor in charge of municipal politics, Luc-Eric is committed to producing the Tree entirely in France and ensuring its international deployment. Reducing our dependence on fossil fuels, such as nuclear or other polluting energies, is its ambition by developing, here and elsewhere, this new way of producing green and responsible energy.\nBoth of them contribute by their alliance to make possible the big dream Rifkinien of the third industrial revolution of putting in intelligent networks the diffuse energies like those that proposes New World Wind now.\nProviding clean electrical service\nas close to usage as possible\nContributing to the emergence\nsustainable and sensitive cities\nReconciling the citizen with\nits means of production",

Mike Ross, a college drop out, and Harvey Specter, one of New York City\u2019s best attorneys carry this show. Mike is brilliant, and somehow finds himself working with Harvey to close cases. Suits reminds entrepreneurs, that sometimes things just fall into your lap and it\u2019s not always your pedigree that matters. Moreover, what happens is not always what you expected or planned, but it can be much better.\nMad Men. One of the most acclaimed shows on TV, it quickly became a success in the business world as it tells tales about a 1960s era advertising firm and its leading man, Don Draper. Popularity aside, Mad Man has a great deal to teach entrepreneurs about sales. Sales are a huge part of being an entrepreneur. You have to sell your personal brand, along with your business idea\u2013and sometimes, as with Don Draper, they can be the same thing.\nHouse of Cards. House of Cards is a Netflix original series, that no one can stop watching. The show follows the life of U.S. Congressman, Frank Underwood as he and his wife work to get punish their enemies, and take over Congress. Although Frank takes this to the extreme, House of Cards can teach entrepreneurs about leadership\u2013and networking. Like Frank, often our success depends on being bold and knowing the right people. Finding out what you can do for others, and what they can do for you, creates successful partnerships.\nHouse of Lies. In Corporate America, Marty Kaan and his team of management consultants work together to get what they want from powerful CEOs. Marty and his team use cunning and tricks to get what they want.

There will always be startups with new and better ideas, and it is essential to remember that innovation, and a great team is what can win you the business Iron Throne.\nBoardwalk Empire. From Terence Winter, Emmy Award-winning writer of \u2018The Sopranos,\u2019 and Academy Award-winning director Martin Scorsese, \u2018Boardwalk Empire\u2019 is inspired by the non-fiction book \u201cBoardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times and Corruption of Atlantic City\u201d by Nelson Johnson. \u2018Boardwalk Empire\u2019 is set in Atlantic City during Prohibition, when the sale of alcohol became illegal throughout the United States. It was a time of change: women gained the right to vote, broadcast radio spread the news, young people ruled the world, and criminals became rich trafficking in illegal alcohol. \u2018Boardwalk Empire\u2019 is executive produced by Terence Winter, Martin Scorsese, Tim Van Patten, Howard Korder, Gene Kelly, Stephen Levinson and Mark Wahlberg.

Oprah said she'd been using The Secret's principles all her life without knowing it, sometimes seeing her dreams come true almost effortlessly. Jack Canfield, co-creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series and teacher, life coach and motivational speaker, says he arrived at his enviable position in life because he knew and used the principles of The Secret.\nJohn Demartini, a former surfer/panhandler who dropped out of school at age 14 because of disabling dyslexia, later learned the philosophy behind The Secret and graduated magna cum laude with a doctoral degree. Others who devoted show time to The Secret include Larry King, Ellen DeGeneres, TheToday Show, and Nightline.\nAll over the world, standing-room-only seminars are teaching the principles of The Secret and showing people how to change their lives.\nThe Secret is literally a life-altering phenomenon that is changing the lives of people who live not just in the United States, but all over the world. The book and DVD have made the top of every best seller list, and have sold over a million copies. In an interview with USA Today, author Rhonda Byrne explained that she discovered the ancient secret to getting everything you want through her study of religious and philosophical texts. As the tagline for the DVD says, The Secret \"has traveled through centuries to reach you.\" Byrne gleaned ideas from great thinkers and creators, scientists and philosophers, artists and writers. It is very likely that many famous people from the past knew this universal law-for example Beethoven, Albert Einstein, Sir Isaac Newton, Leonardo DaVinci, and Abraham Lincoln.\nYou do not have to belong to any particular religious group to learn, use and benefit from The Secret. It's for everyone, regardless of their spiritual beliefs, IQ, education, current circumstances or station in life. In fact, the author discovered and mastered The Secret when she herself was going through a very difficult time. It helped her turn her life around, and she is eager to share what she learned with as many people as possible.

        "title": "Fiber- It's More Important Than You Think",
        "raw_content": "Dietary fiber is perhaps best known for its ability to prevent constipation. But did you know that fiber offers many other health benefits as well, such as lowering your risk for diabetes and heart disease?\nFiber, sometimes known as roughage or bulk, refers to all parts of plant food that your body can't absorb or digest. Unlike fats, proteins or carbohydrates, fiber isn't broken down or absorbed by the body.\nFiber is a special type of carbohydrate that is not digested, absorbed or used by the body for fuel or building body tissue. Fiber was, until relatively recently, all but ignored by the scientific community at large. Unlike most carbohydrates, fiber passes through the human digestive system virtually unchanged. For a long time it was considered almost extraneous to our nutritional needs.\nMore recent studies however have determined fiber's positive value. Findings have been significant enough that one of the Dietary Guidelines encourages significant daily intake of fiber.\nFiber is often classified into two categories. Those that don't dissolve into water are known as insoluble fiber. Those that do dissolve in water are known as soluble fiber.\nInsoluble fiber increases the movement of material through your digestive system. This is of great benefit to those who suffer from constipation or irregular stools.\nSoluble fiber dissolves in water to form a gel-like substance that can help lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels.\nWhat Can Fiber Do For Me?\nIn recent years the need for fiber has been widely emphasized from the family doctor's office to television commercials for cereal.\nOn a dietary level fiber can do several very important things, including:\n* Combating Obesity: Because fiber adds bulk to what you eat it, can make the food you eat more satisfying, most likely due to it staying in the stomach longer. Foods that are high in fiber also must be chewed more thoroughly. All of this also slows down the eating process and contributes to a feeling of being full. These fiber benefits result in one eating slower, and eating less, which in turn can help prevent obesity.\n*Regulates Blood Sugar: Fiber also slows digestion down. This causes the glucose in food to enter the bloodstream more gradually, keeping blood sugar on a more even level\n* KeepsYour Colon Healthy: Fiber is broken down by bacteria in the main part of the large intestine, commonly known as the colon. This process, known as fermentation, produces simple organic acids, which nourish the lining of the colon. These same acids also have an important role in metabolism and provide fuel for the rest of the body as a whole.\n* Prevents Constipation: Dietary fiber increases the weight and size of your stool as well as softening it. Having bulkier, easy to pass stools, decreases the occurrence of constipation. If you have loose, watery, difficult to pass stools, it may be a sign that you may lack fiber in your diet.\n* Lowers Your Risk of Digestive Disorders: Having a fiber rich diet lowers your risk of specific digestive disorders like irritable bowel syndrome and diverticular syndrome.\n* May Reduce Cancer: There is inconclusive evidence that fiber can reduce colorectal cancer. Some studies show a benefit, some studies show none, and some show a greater risk. At this point in time, where colorectal cancer is concerned, fiber is certainly no substitute for a regular screening and testing regimen.\nWhere Do I Find Fiber?\nSo now that you know how fiber can help you, the next logical question is, where do you find it? If you aren't getting enough fiber and want to boost your daily intake, whole foods rather than fiber supplements are generally the better option\nSome of the best natural sources of dietary fiber are grains and whole grain products, fruits and vegetables, beans, peas and other legumes, as well as nuts and seeds. Bran has the highest fiber count of all foods, consisting of between 25-45%.\nFiber occurs only in plant foods, so if your diet is primarily meat and dairy, you might have to make some subtle lifestyle shifts to make room for fiber.\nNowadays with our high fat, protein and simple carb diets, Americans eat only 10% of the fiber we did 100 years ago. A good, healthy diet should contain 25 to 30 grams of fiber a day. The average American consumes less than half of that.\nIt may not be entirely our fault however. At the turn of the last century there was a change in the way that wheat was processed into flour, from a crushing to a fine rolling process. This is thought to account for a substantial depletion in our daily intake of dietary fiber.\nWhen foods are processed, fiber is often removed. Any food made from white flour, such as pizza crust, white bread or regular pasta, is a poor source of fiber. In general the less processed a food is, the more fiber it is likely to contain. But take care, as some high fiber foods, such as breakfast cereals and convenience foods, are also high in sugar and salts. So remember to always read the labels.\nThe Last Word on Fiber Supplements vs. Whole Foods\nFiber supplements only provide a very restricted type of fiber. A diet of high fiber foods generally incorporates various kinds of fiber, which is better for you. Fruits, vegetables and oats are good sources of soluble fiber. Whole grains, bran, and legumes are good sources of insoluble fiber. Some specific examples of good fiber source fruits and vegetables are: apples, beans, berries, broccoli, brussels sprouts, carrots, cauliflower, figs, oranges, pears, peas and prunes. Other good fiber source foods include bran muffins, brown rice, multi-grain cereals, oatmeal, popcorn, and whole wheat bread.\nRemember that while whole foods are always the best option for getting your fiber, supplements are certainly better than no fiber at all.",

        "title": "Voter Suppression in New York | New York City Campaign Finance Board",
        "raw_content": "Voter Suppression in New York\nKatrina Shakarian, Public Relations Officer\nWe are living in a tumultuous moment for voting and elections. In New York, voter turnout is at record lows, and our voting systems are among the most outdated in the nation. At our highest level of government, the President has made unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud. Across the country, state legislators are using voter fraud as a pretext to introduce bills that curtail the right and ability to vote. Yet this moment is only the most recent chapter in a long history of voter suppression in the United States, a saga that touches many northern states - including New York.\nFor instance, it might be surprising for many New Yorkers to know that boroughs of New York City were covered by the Voting Rights Act. The history of voter suppression in New York stretches back to when state lawmakers first removed property ownership as a voting requirement for white men. Black men, however, were not included in this expansion of voting rights, as they still had to own property to cast a ballot. The State also gave counties the power to strip people convicted of \u201cinfamous crimes\u201d of the right to vote, a tactic which intentionally and disproportionately targets black men.\nIn 1846, a majority of New York State residents voted against an amendment to the state constitution that would have granted black men, regardless of property ownership, the right to vote. Then in 1870, the federal government passed the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, giving all men, regardless of \u201crace, color, or previous condition of servitude\u201d, the right to vote. However, as we know today, that right only existed on paper. New York ratified the 15th Amendment in April 1869, only to rescind it in January 1870, and did not ratify it again until 1970.\nThe next great push to disenfranchise New Yorkers was a response to an influx of immigration in New York City. According to Slate, \u201cone early-20th-century law required that voters in the state\u2019s largest cities reregister every year, a cumbersome mandate imposed under the pretext that urban voters\u2019 frequent changes of address opened the door to voter fraud,\u201d a measure that feels familiar today.\nIn a 1908 election, city officials sought to suppress the Jewish immigrant vote by holding voter registration on Saturdays and on the holiday of Yom Kippur, when observant Jews refrained from activities like writing.\nIn 1921, New York State passed a law requiring an English literacy test to vote. The people most disenfranchised by the legislation were the members of New York City\u2019s growing Puerto Rican community. Although they were American citizens by birth, many were recent arrivals who were not fluent in English.\nIn 1958, Jose Camacho, a Puerto Rican-born Bronx grocer who was fluent in Spanish but not English, sued over New York\u2019s literacy test, albeit unsuccessfully, as he believed that as an American citizen he should be able to vote regardless of what language he spoke. According to the New York Times, \u201cHis effort was supported by the American Jewish Congress, which said Yiddish speakers were also affected.\u201d\nWhile New York was not subject to the original Voting Rights Act of 1965, New Yorkers were experiencing discrimination tactics similar to those used by communities across the South. Five years after the federal Voting Rights Act passed, in 1970, Congress voted to expand the reach of the Act \u201cto include any part of the country that met the criteria,\u201d not just Southern states. As a result, the Bronx, Brooklyn and Manhattan became subject to the Act, for using \u201ca test or device to discourage voters\u201d and having low voter registration rates (in all three boroughs, \u201cfewer than half of the voting-age people were registered or voted in 1968\u201d). Section four of the Act required that changes to voting procedures in all three counties receive federal approval before being enacted.\nNotably, the Voting Rights Act has been used twice to prevent changes in voting in New York City. In 1981, a panel of federal judges ruled to postpone a primary election because of changes to City Council district lines and poll sites that were made without the necessary federal pre-clearance. And in 1989, advocates successfully argued that 300,000 voters had been wrongfully purged from the voter rolls and needed to be reinstated.\nUnfortunately, in 2013, the Supreme Court struck down the requirement for federal pre-clearance. On April 19th, 2016, many New Yorkers went to the polls to cast a ballot in the presidential primary, only to discover that their names had been removed from the voter rolls. The NYC Board of Elections acknowledged that over 100,000 registered voters had been mistakenly removed from the rolls. WNYC revealed that Hispanic voters were disproportionately affected. Common Cause New York filed a lawsuit which was joined by the Department of Justice in January 2017. Had the Supreme Court decided in 2013 to leave the pre-clearance mandate in place, the voter purge might not have happened.\nGiven this history, we believe it\u2019s time for New Yorkers to demand real election reform that will protect our right to vote. This year, the Vote Better NY coalition is calling on Albany to pass a bill, proposed by State Assembly Member Latrice Walker, which would require state level pre-clearance of changes to voting procedures.

        "title": "Millennials create new paradigm - Ocean Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Millennials create new paradigm\nEschewing the bonds of ownership for a plethora of experiences, high net worth Millennials (once known as Gen Y) are changing the way brands do business. And that's great news for boats!\nMembers of the digital generation, known as Gen Y or millennials, crave experiences not possessions and rely on their multitude of friends, both physical and virtual. This has forced a paradigm shift in how boats and other luxury goods are positioned, pitched and promoted.\nThe number of millennials \u2013 those who belong in the first truly digital generation, born between 1980 and 2000, and previously known as Gen Y \u2013 has now officially overtaken that of the baby boomers, and the cohort is ready to move into its prime spending years. Millennials are poised to reshape the economy, forcing companies to examine how they do business for decades to come.\nRich Kids of Instagram - just one of the places Millennials with a penchant for the good life go to flaunt their lifestyle.\nAged between 16 and 34 years old, millennials have grown up, moved into careers, had kids of their own and indulged in all the consumption they can muster, but in entirely different ways from their forebears. And while millennials present a huge market opportunity, they\u2019re also an enigma, according to demographers, social commentators and boat builders quick to seize on the new challenges and opportunities this presents.\nAs savvy digital users with high expectations of brands and low regard for advertising, this generation requires different tactics from the businesses that seek to engage with them.\n\u201cGen Y lives by a different set of values,\u201d explained KPMG demographer Bernard Salt.\n\u201cPossessions don\u2019t excite them, unless it\u2019s their phones and devices. They are less likely to drive cars and own a house. The cost is one thing, but they don\u2019t want to be tied down by mortgage. They are highly educated, very connected, use every platform and they\u2019re entrepreneurial and global in their thinking.\n\u201cThe mark of their generation is they are very well travelled. They were the first generation to go overseas with their parents, developing a taste for the exotic. They travelled as students, thanks to cheap airfares, as backpackers, and now Airbnb. It has become somewhat of a competition.\n\u201cThey derive social cachet from showing their experiences online and on social media, showing that they\u2019re free spirited. They use it to inspire jealousy and aspiration in others; that is the end game in many cases.\u201d\nFlashy cars, watches, bubbly and yes, BOATS are infinitely instagramable.\nAccording to Salt, this bunch is less inclined to make big-purchase decisions: \u201cMarriage, children and mortgages are all pushed back into their 30s. They may still aspire to it, but just not yet and not if it comes with responsibility. Their core friendship group is central to their life for about 10 years. Friends are their family, and their loyalty and experiential connections are with friends.\n\u201cWith every facet of their lives, they will \u2018Uber\u2019 it, outsourcing the commitment in an efficient way, hence the demise of the car and boat.\u201d\nThey are driven by FOMO (fear of missing out), want no strings attached and every experience has to be hashtagged and posted on social media. But fear not, the traditional model of boating experience might not be on the millennials\u2019 radar but the product still intensely alluring.\n\u201cBoating is ideal as a top-shelf experience that can be shared with their friendship group, then posted to social media,\u201d said Salt. \u201cSpending a day or a week on a yacht adds to their kudos and contributes to their life experience and social capital. \u2018I spent NYE on Sydney Harbour on a AU$50 million yacht \u2013 see!\u2019\u201d\nYachting and boating are ideally placed for millennials who are seeking exotic locations and exquisite, five-star activities; all the high-tech gadgets, toys and bespoke itineraries, menus and more.\n\u201cIf your brand embodies faith, freedom, leisure, symbols of success and free spiritedness, you will appeal,\u201d said Salt. \u201cEspecially in Australia, which is clean, safe and beautiful. The boating product will weather any generational shift for decades to come, but the industry needs to adapt to the market, rather than whinging that it has changed.\u201d\nBut in the boating arena, if you have built your business model on the premise of ownership, then you may be wrong-footed by the next generation. Hence, the rise of syndication, charter and boat clubs.\n\u201cThe next generation will reimagine the world of yachting and boating, reinterpreting it and forcing it to conform to their values,\u201d advised Salt.\n\u201cThose businesses who don\u2019t adapt to suit this new appetite can cling to older clients but will miss out on the opportunities of the future. We will move in to the 2020s and 2030s and a new generation will reimagine the constructs again. The quality you need is flexibility, agility and to not to be threatened by change; like any sector.\u201d\nSocial demographer and forecaster, Bernard Salt.\nMillennials are loyal to their friendships, technology, hot issues like same-sex marriage, the environment and domestic violence, so products need to pitch to those sentiments.\n\u201cMillennials want experiences that show insight to their lives and project a curated persona: \u2018This is my fabulous life!\u2019 They want brands that are transparent and display their bona fides touching on the issues. Millennials have a fixation with Apple; it has a sanctity about it. Brands would do well to tap into those and connect with their tribe. I reckon the value of boating would diminish significantly if they couldn\u2019t offer wi-fi. Remember, it didn\u2019t happen if it wasn\u2019t posted on social media!\u201d\nSalt foresees Millennials may mellow as they move into their 40s, and may start lumbering themselves with the responsibilities of their parents. \u201cOnce they have their own families, later in life, they will accept the family experience. They can\u2019t be Peter Pan forever. You can\u2019t have 20 best friends forever. We are at \u2018peak friend\u2019 in the mid to late 30s. Soon they will move on to other priorities and, no doubt, the product offered will be as alluring in 2027 as it is now. Boating delivers valuable family time in all its forms.\u201d\nErwin Bamps, CEO of Emirates-based shipyard Gulf Craft, recently said the world\u2019s superyacht manufacturers are sailing towards a major disruption of their traditional business model as the next generation of ultra-high-net-worth individuals with an appetite for premium experiences shrugs off the responsibilities that come with ownership.\n\u201cThese are people who have never owned a record collection \u2013 or even a CD collection \u2013 music and movies are something they download or stream online. Where they step beyond that, it is because they want something extra. So while CD and DVD sales have fallen, live music and cinemas continue to thrive as a premium experience,\u201d explained Bamps. \u201cIt\u2019s the experience that matters, not the physical item that creates the experience. They will still want the use of superyachts, but will be far less interested in owning the asset.\u201d\nLoving the yachting lifestyle - just not the perceived hassles of ownership.\nIn fact, they will see ownership as a restriction, he said: \u201cWe are going to see a time when the traditional idea of yacht ownership starts to follow the same path as car sharing services; more convenient than a traditional taxi, and a real alternative to owning a car. The same principle will easily apply to luxury yachts. Imagine a global, technology-driven service that delivers the yacht you want, at the location you want, at the time you want, and can arrange a private jet to fly you there.\u201d\n\u201cTechnology is going to drive this change,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe are going to see some very complex charter networks evolve to cater for this market, making sure customers get exactly what they want. From the business side, there will need to be some very complex mathematics in the background, analysing charter patterns in terms of yacht design, preferred destinations, which toys people want and so on, and then constantly moving the craft around the world based on predictions of demand.\u201d\nCaptain Richard Morris at Australian Superyachts has seen the shift first hand.\n\u201cFor that sector, it\u2019s a matter of creating a product to suit them. They want instant gratification and charter is perfect. They love celebrating any occasion on a superyacht. And they are exuberant and effusive in their appreciation for a great experience. We love it!\u201d\nLuxury charter vessel, Ghost II is popular with Millennials for its absolute luxury and step on, step off convenience.\nAs Morris observed: \u201cYou only have to search #ghost2 to see their appetite for fun!\u201d There they are in full colour, slurping Cristal, posing and boogying with abandon, the Harbour Bridge and other landmarks captured in their shots.\nFor the extreme, a search result for \u201cRichkidsofinstagram\u201d is a veritable smorgasbord of millennial excess, cavorting around the world on chartered jets, choppers, yachts, sportscars, mansions \u2013 furs, caviar, exotic pets and pugs are de rigeur.\n\u201cThere are huge challenges ahead, but also huge opportunities for those companies that find the right balance in the evolving market,\u201d said Bamps. \u201cHowever, business as usual will definitely not be good enough.\u201d\nbernardsalt.com.au\nNew blood at Azimut Benetti",

The students can take waste wood, which originally had no value, and with high-levels of craftsmanship, they are able to transform it into something of value.\u201d Wood Science and Design Professor Way Long expressed his hopes that \u201cthe NPUST Department of Wood Science and Design\u2019s College Violin Workshop can become a base for violin making in Taiwan.\u201d He explained that \u201cthrough the process of making violins, students are interacting with the materials in a two-way dialog. The goal is to use different types of wood materials to make 100 violins and develop deep-rooted and continual craftsmanship that gains international repute.\u201d\nProfessional violin maker Sheng-Yan Huang pointed out that \u201cproblems in many of the world\u2019s top violins are found through the processes of being used in many types of performances \u2013 these are then improved upon. Every time, incremental adjustments are made until finally [the instrument] has a unique value. At NPUST, with excellent capabilities as assistance from professional teachers, the violin making techniques at College Violin Workshop will continue to improve.\u201d\nThis year, locally produced wood species including Taiwan incense cedar, Taiwania, Fujian cypress, Cinnamomum camphora, Formosan Michelia and mahogany cultivated by the university were used to make hand-made violins with unique character and sound. The department emphasizes that wood resources are applied to life sciences and not for general consumables. They hope that the students will continue hone their skills and become increasingly knowledgeable in the materials they use and features of quality instruments.\nFor now, a unique sound is being discovered in the native woods of the island forests, and with careful hands and keen eyes the students are turning their vision into reality, not only creating a musical instrument, but a story that they can share, and a tune that is their very own.",

        "raw_content": "Ohio law requires that each mayor of a municipal corporation who wishes to conduct a mayor's court pursuant to Chapter 1905 of the Ohio Revised Code receive Supreme Court approved training.\nA newly elected or newly appointed Mayor who wishes to conduct a mayor's court hearing all non-alcohol and drug related traffic offenses that may come before Mayors Court shall obtain, within sixty days of first assuming office, six hours of classroom instruction in order to hear cases other than alcohol and drug related traffic offenses (general). In order to hear first offense OVI cases, a separate six hours of classroom instruction related to alcohol and drug related traffic offenses (OVI) is required.\nA magistrate (a licensed attorney who has practiced for the past 3 years in Ohio) must have this initial training before hearing court (per the Ohio Supreme Court). Completion of the two six-hour training requirements authorizes the Mayor or Magistrate to hear cases through the 31st day of December of the year immediately following the year in which the education was completed.\nFollowing Initial Training\nFollowing the six hour initial training requirements, the Mayor or Magistrate shall receive each year, three hours of continuing education for offenses other than alcohol and drug related traffic offenses and another 3 hours of continuing education in cases related to alcohol and drug related traffic offenses if they hear first offense OVI cases. A mayor who decides not to hear first offense OVI cases is only required to take the initial six-hour classroom instruction for all of the non-OVI cases (GENERAL) which may come before the court and the annual three-hour update courses. It is the responsibility of each individual to know what courses they need to take each year.\nPlease note that these refresher courses are only for those who have taken their 6-hour initial course and their 3-hour updates every year since. If a refresher course is not taken annually following the initial course, the initial course(s) must be taken again.\nFill-In Appointment\nThe six hour initial courses are given the first of each year. In the event a municipality loses a mayor, for whatever reason, they have the option of hiring a certified Magistrate to hear their Mayor's Court cases. The same supreme court rules apply to attorneys. They must have the same training as Mayors and, in addition, must be a practicing attorney in the State of Ohio for the past 3 years in order to qualify as a Magistrate. The 3-hour update courses are held 3 times per year in different locations for Mayors/Magistrates. A Magistrate only course with full CLE is held in August.\nThe dates and locations for the upcoming refresher courses are listed to the right. Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and the program begins at 8:45 a.m.\n2018 Refresher Courses:\nDoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Columbus-Worthington\nClosed: Max Capasity Reached",

        "title": "Book Covers, Formats and other forms of pickiness | I Like It Dog-Eared",
        "raw_content": "Book Covers, Formats and other forms of pickiness\nThis blog post is inspired by Blooey\u2018s article in Manila Bulletin, about judging a book by its cover. We all know the famous saying about that, but we\u2019re talking literal books here, and as far as I know, judging a literal book by its cover is not a crime. Or at least, not against any moral values, right?\nAfter I read Blooey\u2019s article, though, I realized one thing about myself: I don\u2019t really judge books by their covers. Shocker. I always thought I did, but I realize, based on my last purchases, that I didn\u2019t buy any books based on their covers, but for their blurbs and their reviews. When I am simply browsing (as in looking around with no intent to buy), I do pick books through their covers, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever bought a book because of their cover alone.\nI think my choosing style for my books are based on the blurb and the reviews. I used to rely only on blurbs and not on reviews, because sometimes reviews are hard to decipher. Some books may have a high rating in Amazon, but I would end up not liking it so much. But after a few impulse buys that didn\u2019t work out, I went back to the reviews. This time, I don\u2019t only browse in Amazon but in Goodreads and other book blogs. Book blogs have been a blessing to me lately, and the more critical the reviewers are, the better. I want to know why the book is good when you say it is good, so blogs with 1 paragraph for their reviews saying how \u201cgood\u201d the book is will not have me convinced. It\u2019s only after I check out good, well-written reviews will I consider buying the book. My eyes tend to glaze over the cover, and I only really look at the cover of the book after I have purchased it.\nI can\u2019t deny, however, that there are books whose cover I got attracted to immediately. Take Mira Grant\u2019s Feed, for example:\nLook at that bloody RSS logo on the cover :)\nI suppose it was the geekery that attracted me to it. If you\u2019re a blogger, the RSS logo should be very familiar to you (my friend Joni even saw it in a local morning TV show logo), so this cover naturally jumped out at me. If it weren\u2019t for that, I doubt I would have paid attention to this book before I read a review at The Book Smugglers.\nI would draw the line when it comes to getting book series. I have this (sometimes annoying) habit of getting all the books in a series even if I didn\u2019t like the other books. If it\u2019s a part of a series, I have to get the rest of the books, and I must always start with the first book (who would want to start with a second book?). This is why I read the entire Twilight series, and why sometimes I don\u2019t like picking up books that have continuations because I don\u2019t know when I\u2019d be able to get the next book, or if it was worth my money. If I get the entire series, though, I have to get it all in the same format. They must be published by the same publisher, they must have the similar covers and they must have the same size.\nCase in point: My collection of Jasper Fforde\u2019s Thursday Next is horribly mismatched. My copy of The Eyre Affair is in UK trade paperback format. My copy of Lost in a Good Book and The Well of Lost Plots are in US trade paperback format and my copy of Something Rotten and First Among the Sequels are in UK mass market paperbacks. I didn\u2019t care much for covers and formats when I got these books, but when they\u2019re on my shelf, they don\u2019t look as pretty or organized as I wanted them to be. (I\u2019d post a picture, but the books aren\u2019t with me right now. Sorry. ^^ )\nSecond example: I have both paperbacks of Cassandra Clare\u2019s City of Bones and City of Ashes. I couldn\u2019t wait for the third book to go on paperback, but when I saw it on the shelves, I don\u2019t have the heart to buy it because it was printed by another publisher and it is smaller than the first two paperbacks I have. :( I still haven\u2019t bought it, and I\u2019m considering splurging on a boxed hardbound set just so I have uniform copies. If only hardbound books are not so expensive.\nAnd speaking of hardbound books. I\u2019ve mentioned it a couple of times here, but I rarely, rarely buy hardbound books. I only buy it if (and only if) I couldn\u2019t wait to read the book. Normally, I\u2019m patient enough to wait for the paperback version. Besides being expensive, hardbound books are hard to carry, and take too much space. I have made some excuses to get hardbound books, like Suzanne Collins\u2019 The Hunger Games series, but for others that I don\u2019t really need to read right now, I can wait. Long, if I have to.\nOf course, I know hardbound books are sturdier\u2026but my love for paperbacks is really just a matter of preference.\nAnd if I really and truly can\u2019t wait for the book and the hardbound version is still expensive\u2026well, I can always get the ebook from Amazon, which is almost the same as its would be paperback price.\nI\u2019d like to think I\u2019m not a really picky reader, but I guess in a way, I am. More than the cover or the format, I think what\u2019s really important for a book is the content \u2014 no matter how pretty the cover is, if the contents are not so good, I will never learn to love the book.\nPosted in: Reading Quirks \\ Tagged: Cassandra Clare, cover, hardbound, Mira Grant, paperback\n3 Thoughts on \u201cBook Covers, Formats and other forms of pickiness\u201d\nfantaghiro23 on August 10, 2010 at 8:43 pm said:\nHi, Tina! Hahaha! Yeah, I am the proud owner of mismatched book series, too.:) I don\u2019t pay much attention to covers, either, though I can\u2019t deny that a pretty cover does impel me to pick up a book. But not to buy it. Has to be the blurb or recommendations from people/institutions that\u2019ll push me to buy a book.\nPingback: Pink cakes, pink ponies and gumballs | One More Page\nPingback: The last day of the rest of your life | One More Page",

        "raw_content": "Health and Wellness Consultant Peter Mangiola Releases Ebook on Caregiver Guilt\nHealth and wellness expert Peter Mangiola, RN, MSN, has released a new ebook discussing causes and strategies to overcome guilt experienced by caregivers.\nOnline PR News \u2013 28-February-2015 \u2013 Medford, NJ \u2013 Peter Mangiola, RN, MSN, a recognized senior health and wellness professional with over a quarter century of experience in the health care field, has published his first book, The 7 Causes of Caregiver Guilt, which will be available as an ebook on Amazon and Barnes & Noble in the near future.\nPeter wrote this book in response to the impending crisis affecting the 65 million people, 29% of the U.S. domestic population, who currently are providing care for a chronically ill, disabled or aged family member or friend.\nNot only are financial resources being stretched to the limit, but perhaps the most devastating cost that is not being addressed is the cost to the caregivers\u2019 life quality and emotional stability.\nThe Wall Street Journal reported on this invisible crisis, saying, \u201cSenior citizens have become the largest and fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population, a demographic shift that influences everything from consumer behavior to health-care costs, according to this Census release.\u201d\nThe invisible psychological and emotional deficit that is borne by this nation\u2019s caregivers is being ignored, but eventually will surely outstrip the emotional resources of these living room heroes.\n\u201cThis is clearly an iceberg of titanic proportions. I come into contact with people struggling with caregiver guilt daily. Guilt and how it deceptively takes control of your life creates havoc for both those who care and those who receive the care. If you are a caregiver you are likely an \u2018other-centered\u2019 person who is highly responsive to the needs of those around you and yet your care needs receive scant attention by society\u201d\n\u201cThis is clearly an iceberg of titanic proportions.

If you are a caregiver, you are likely an \u2018other-centered\u2019 person who is highly responsive to the needs of those around you, and yet your care needs receive scant attention by society,\u201d Mangiola says.\nMangiola\u2019s book is a 911 caregiver alarm that must be acknowledged and dealt with.\nFor many years, Peter owned and operated two well-known senior care agencies in New Jersey. Peter has an extensive and in-depth professional experience in cognitive, behavioral, emotional and physical issues, including:\nMangiola is now a health and wellness consultant and head of One-to-One LifeCare, a firm that helps match consumers with the health care options that best fit their needs.\nMangiola is sharing much of his knowledge and experience gained over 25-plus years in the medical field in his new ebook: The 7 Causes of Caregiver Guilt. He begins his book by defining guilt and how negative guilt wields a great deal of control over our lives. He goes on to discuss the 7 primary drivers of caregiver guilt and lays out several effective strategies for overcoming them.\n\u201cIn my years as a caregiver, I know first-hand how easy it is to get burnt out on the job,\u201d Mangiola continues. \u201cAnd when the burnout sets in, feelings of guilt around the people we are caring for often accompany it. My goal was to create a comprehensive guide that will help other caregivers overcome guilt and have more rewarding and fulfilling careers. My book also discusses common issues with family caregivers, particularly those caring for elderly loved ones.\u201d\nMangiola believes that sharing his insights will bring hope to family caregivers and encourage career caregivers to stay passionate about what they are doing.\n\u201cI have always had a passion for taking care of others, and I know there are many out there like me who love what they do. Unfortunately, a lot of them give up on their careers because they have difficulty dealing with some of the stresses involved. My hope is that this trend can be reversed and more caregivers will keep going and overcome the challenges they face on the job.\u201d\nPeter Mangiola is making is the first chapter of The 7 Causes of Caregiver Guilt available for download free of charge along with a free online caregiver audit.\n\u201cI want to get this information into the hands of as many people (who need it) as possible. For this reason, I am giving a chapter away, no strings attached, along with the free caregiver audit assessment until we release it on Amazon.com later this year.\u201d\nTo secure your free excerpt of Mangiola\u2019s new ebook The 7 Causes of Caregiver Guilt along with your free audit, go to http://www.petermangiola.com/\nPeter Mangiola R.N.

        "raw_content": "Tanya Byron \u00a9 John Swannell\nKathy Walton talks to Tanya Byron \u2013 a very therapeutic experience\nChatting to Professor Tanya Byron, 47, is such a boost that it\u2019s easy to see why she is universally popular.\nShe\u2019s on time for our interview, she\u2019s great fun to talk to and above all, she\u2019s a wonderful advertisement for her profession. No wonder the media adores her and so many of her patients stay in touch, some even choosing careers in mental health themselves.\nIt is Tanya\u2019s weekly writing day and the slim, well-groomed psychologist is in her North London kitchen, being served \u201cthe best cup of tea in the world\u201d by her husband, the actor Bruce Byron (best known as DC Terry Perkins in ITV\u2019s The Bill) and getting ready to take their two Westies Fred and Spike for walk in nearby Trent Park.\n\u201cNo, it\u2019s not work displacement activity,\u201d she laughingly assures me in mock school ma\u2019am tones. \u201cIt\u2019s all part of a healthy balanced lifestyle!\u201d\nWe are discussing her latest book, the surprisingly readable The Skeleton Cupboard: The making of a clinical psychologist (due out in paperback at the end of the month, with a television series in the pipeline too).\nIt\u2019s an absolute page-turner for anyone who has ever wanted to know not just what drives people to seek therapy, but also what motivates the professionals whose job it is to get inside the heads of troubled people. It is by turns funny, moving, compassionate, and sometimes, as the title suggests, shocking.\n\u201cMy job is like being an investigator, it has a forensic element, rather like peeling back onion layers,\u201d says Tanya. \u201cIt\u2019s a journey from chaos to clarity. I have to find a narrative to help my patients understand why everything is falling apart around them, work out the direction of travel and find ways to resolve a problem.\u201d\nIf that sounds a little earnest, her book isn\u2019t at all. Each chapter is a fictional account of the journey taken by a former patient, dating from Tanya\u2019s time as a trainee clinical psychologist, with Tanya very much travelling the same road, often stumbling herself.\nFor the reader, the biggest surprise inside The Skeleton Cupboard is that Tanya\u2019s depictions of her experiences and her patients are often wonderfully counter-intuitive; you flatter yourself that you \u2018get\u2019 what\u2019s wrong, only to be tripped up when the patient throws a wobbly. In one dramatic scene for instance, a man with an abusive past finally breaks down in tears and Tanya thinks she\u2019s cracked it \u2013 only for the man to pull a knife on her.\n\u201cI was young at the time and still working out what it was like to discover what it\u2019s like being a grown up,\u201d she says philosophically of an experience that could have killed her.\nDespite being composite characters (Tanya stresses they aren\u2019t real), each patient is so convincingly drawn and their journey so full of entertaining twists and turns, suspense even, that I ask if Tanya has ever considered taking up novel writing.\n\u201cTherapy is a long process and a relationship has to be built, so [my assessment] is rather like a novel. I spend my life working out my patients\u2019 stories,\u201d she says.\nStory-telling was very much part of Tanya\u2019s North London childhood; her late father was a theatre director from a German-Jewish family and her mother spent her early years in India. Tragically and most decisively, Tanya\u2019s first introduction to the workings of a disturbed mind could have come straight out of a whodunnit.\nAt the age of 15, it was Tanya who discovered her paternal grandmother dying on the floor, her brain having been hacked to pieces by someone she\u2019d previously helped: a young pregnant drug addict who wanted money. As Tanya herself says in the book, it proved a turning-point. \u201cThat March morning\u2026[something clicked] into a precocious place of calm rationality that I now believed began my journey into the profession of a mental health practitioner.\u201d\nShe went on to study psychology first at York University, followed by an MSc and PhD at UCL and the University of Surrey respectively and since 2008, has been chancellor of Edge Hill University in Lancashire. She\u2019s also Honorary Professor of Psychology at Shangdong Normal University, China. And if academic accolades weren\u2019t enough, her TV credits include the family relationship series The House of Tiny Tearaways, Little Angels and its spin-off, Teen Angels. For ten years, she has been writing regularly for The Times and Good Housekeeping magazine.\nPerforming is in Tanya\u2019s blood and she\u2019s certainly very approachable, so much so that the comedy duo French and Saunders invited her on to their Christmas 2005 show to evaluate their childish behaviour, after which Jennifer Saunders suggested they write a sit com together.\nByron and Saunders\u2019 exhaustive and, no doubt, hilarious research consisted of shopping together, people-watching in caf\u00e9s, catching up with daytime TV and reading stacks of women\u2019s magazines. The result was The Life and Times of Vivienne Vyle, a biting satire of reality shows and their often dysfunctional hosts, shown on BBC 2 in 2007, and an enduring friendship with Jennifer Saunders (they still walk their dogs together).\nShe recalls: \u201cIt was quite intimidating the first day. I couldn\u2019t believe I\u2019d just taken a call from the Jennifer Saunders, but we have a similar fascination with people and why they do what they do. Jennifer\u2019s really interested in psychology and I like comedy because humour is such an important coping skill. The first time I came up with a joke and Jennifer laughed, I felt as if I\u2019d got a gold star at primary school!\u201d\nIf her expertise appeals to famous comedians, it isn\u2019t lost on government officials either; Tanya has just been asked to prepare a manifesto on why 236 vulnerable children were held in police cells last year, not because they had done anything wrong, but because this country doesn\u2019t have enough safe places for children at risk.\n\u201cCAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services) are in crisis,\u201d she says passionately. \u201cThe last review was ten years ago and we are very bad as a society in treating [mental health issues]. If we had the same waiting-lists for physical injuries, there\u2019d be an outcry.\u201d\nWe talk briefly about why so many young people seem to be struggling with modern life and, without hesitation, she lists some of her targets. \u2018Friend-parents\u2019who can\u2019t say no; an increasingly risk-averse society that doesn\u2019t build emotional resilience in children by allowing them to fail; and a lack of engagement between children (\u2018digital natives\u2019) and their parents (\u2018digital immigrants\u2019) over social media are all to blame, she believes, along with the cult of celebrity.\n\u201cOur society feels that you\u2019re nobody until someone knows who you are [but] the public eye can be a precarious place. It\u2019s this external but meaningless validation of the self that makes us so vulnerable. It worries me when young people say \u2018I want to be famous\u2019.\u201d\nWith a schedule as busy as hers, it\u2019s hard to believe Tanya ever finds time to relax, but she assures me she does, with twice-weekly Zumba and kettlebell classes in the hall of her old primary school and regular trips to the cinema with her husband and children.\nSo what is she like with her own children, Lily, 19 and Jack, 17? How has it been bringing them up?\nShe laughs again. \u201cI thank God for my own children who teach me that I too make mistakes. In fact, they tell me they could make a fortune writing a book entitled \u2018Great with other people\u2019s kids, s**t with her own\u2019. \u201d\nReluctantly I draw our conversation to a close, but not before Tanya gives me another display of her flair for comedy, with an anecdote about her own tearful efforts to get her first baby to sleep. In desperation one night, her husband Bruce started reading tips from an expert\u2019s child-rearing manual, which an almost hysterical Tanya told him were no use at all.\n\u201cBut you\u2019ve got to listen,\u201d he pleaded. \u201cYou wrote it\u2026\u201d",

        "title": "Origin Hunters - Genetic Genealogist: Are Your Ancestors Keeping Secrets From You?",
        "raw_content": "Earlier this month I posted - Elusive Civil War Ancestors. This post will continue to look at William Albert Clark and his Civil War records, or lack of records.\nI like to treat genealogy like a science. It does have that nice \u2013logy suffix. Since I\u2019m treating it like a science I tend to create theories about the ancestors that I am studying. Theories are great to have. They help focus your research goals and give you a sense of accomplishment whether you prove or disprove them.\nIn the case of William Albert Clark, my theory is that he must have served in the Civil War. William was born in 1840 in West Cambridge (now Arlington) MA. He and his father ran a harness making company. He was 21 when the war started and after the war ended, he got married. He married a girl named Emma Read from Jersey City, NJ. So, either he met her on the way to or from the war front or mail order brides came from New Jersey back then.\nI realize that neither of those two choices may be true. The idea of William serving in the Civil War and passing through New Jersey where he meets his future wife does support my theory. All I had to do was to find the proof.\nTo date I have been fairly successful at finding the service records of those who served in the Civil War. I did find William Albert\u2019s draft record in 1863, but I haven\u2019t been able to find any service or pension records. Maybe it was time for a new theory. Maybe William Albert was drafted but never served.\nI went to NARA in Waltham and asked where I could find information on war exemptions and it was suggested that I go to Arlington where William lived. Arlington is about 10 minutes away so it wasn\u2019t a problem. I visited the Arlington Library and was told that the person I wanted to talk to wouldn\u2019t be in until that afternoon. I left a message.\nThis was all serendipitous because it gave me time to visit the Clark house a mile down Mass Ave. I wrote about that adventure here - Old Photo Reveals More Clues. While I was at the old house, I crossed the street to the Fire Department and the adjoining War Memorial Park. In support of my new theory, I couldn\u2019t find William Albert in the rolls for serving in the War from Arlington.\nLater that afternoon I received a call from a very nice Arlington librarian. She had gotten my message, done her own research and she told me the records I wanted were at NARA. I smiled quietly to myself. Her research did point me to the exact records I needed to ask for - The Civil War Letters of Exemption. \u201cOh, by the way, they only have the surnames beginning with C.\u201d I said that should work out well and thanked her for her help.\nA week later, I visited NARA again to look at the Letters. Unfortunately, the index should have stated that the surnames were not only limited to the letter C, but even more limited to names beginning with Cu. Any of you Currys or Currans or Cunninghams out there might be in luck, I wasn\u2019t.\nThe folks at NARA suggested more avenues and I requested \u2013 Descriptions of Persons Drafted 1863-1864. This wonderful old ledger listed men who were drafted and later exempted from service. I found a couple of William Albert\u2019s cohorts from the 1863 draft, but no William.\nThis guy was really holding on to his secrets tightly.\nI wonder if there was a stigma associated with not serving. Not serving didn\u2019t seem to hurt Grover Cleveland or John D. Rockefeller. They both paid someone to serve for them. Whatever did happen to William Albert during the war years he didn\u2019t share with his family. I have read and reread the 100-year-old notes from his daughter-in-law, Mary (Cheney) Clark, and she mentions nothing to support either of my theories.\nThe answers look like they will remain elusive for a while longer.\nMy lack of success won\u2019t deter me from acting like a scientist and creating new theories. I know that science will shine a light on all those dark places, like secrets, and illuminate what they are and whether they are false or true.\nLabels: Arlington, Cheney, Civil War, Clark, draft, National Archives, Read, records, scientist, secrets, theories",

        "raw_content": "Language Education and Children's Literature\nBy Mildred de Baas, Anneke Zielhorst, Ria Kwisthout, Rieke Evegroen and Isolde Vega\n2.1 The Formation of Images in Language Education\n2.2 Language Education for Multilingual Pupils\nIn the subject areas of reading and language in primary schools the main concern is with learning and extending linguistic competency. It is through education in the native language (NT1), education in Dutch as a second language (NT2), grammatical skills and reading comprehension, along with education in the native language and culture (OETC) that pupils are equipped with the linguistic skills necessary for secondary education.\nGrammar and comprehension are the prime targets of teaching. The texts chosen, sentences and words that appear in lessons and practice, must naturally connect with the experiential world of the pupils, but be subordinate to the learning targets.\nHowever, the texts, words and sentences are a major influence on the socio-emotional development of children. Through the content of this material, they receive images of themselves, their group, or others in their surroundings. Also, if people or situations from distant countries are represented, the pupils will be given an image of how the world is shaped and the positions people adopt with regard to each other.\nThis chapter deals with language education from a multicultural perspective and is divided into three parts. Firstly, Mildred de Baas and Anneke Zielhorst write about the formation of images in language education in primary schools. They illustrate the extent to which lesson materials are a contributory factor in shaping images of ethnic minority groups and the multicultural society. If, through our examples, teachers and authors can hone their understanding of the subtle ways in which prejudices slip into texts and images, then the path will have been cleared for alternatives. For this reason, alongside the 'blunders', examples have been given of ways in which children can be brought closer together and possibilities can be offered for constructing positive images of themselves and others.\nIn the second part De Baas andZielhorst and gear specifically towards language teaching to multilingual children. Once again, examples are given of classroom material that in their opinion should either be avoided or chosen deliberately. They also discuss integrated language education in classes of multicultural composition and, along with Ria Kwisthout, the teaching of Dutch as a second language.\nIn a contribution from Rieke Evegroen and Isolde Vega, the reader is taken along on a quest for literature for pupils in primary education. The authors believe that the importance of fiction in intercultural education is often underestimated. They cite many examples that could fill the hiatus.\nOld Classroom Material\nBy about 1960 many schools in The Netherlands had pupils from other cultures: Indonesia, Surinam, Aruba and the Dutch Caribbean, the Molukkan Isles, Spain, Turkey and Morocco. However, the fact that primary schools have been multicultural for three decades has taken a long time to penetrate the awareness of those developing classroom material. Until at least 1980, both the informative texts and fictional material available to school children related exclusively to the reality of the ethnically Dutch. The white, western cultural tradition had a monopoly. In illustrations, all the people in the playground, in the classroom, in the shopping centre or in the street are white.\nUnintentionally, this absence of other ethnic groups creates the impression among pupils that only white people and their experiences are interesting enough to serve as examples in classroom material. What black people think and do is apparently not of interest, not of importance and of no value whatsoever to society at large. Among white pupils, this can lead to feelings of superiority with respect to their black fellow-pupils, or, in the absence of the latter, to black people in general. Among black pupils the basis for a negative self-image is laid and a sense of inferiority encouraged. The content of material dealt with in the classroom is not recognisable to them and they cannot identify with the world in the school textbooks.\nZulu children in Africa\nThe lesson, intended for group 4, is about where and how people live. A variety of ways in which people and animals live in The Netherlands is dealt with. The illustrations show only white people. Then there follows a brief lesson on living accommodation elsewhere in the world. The picture shows an apparently primitive village. The people are black, they walk around half naked and build houses for themselves from poles and reeds. The text reads as follows:\n'Zulu children live in Africa where it is often warm.\nWe call a Zulu village a 'kraal'.\nEach house is made of wooden poles and has a roof made of reeds.\nThe people build their own houses.' (1)\nAt first sight this is merely a factual description of reality. But something noteworthy has happened. Whereas in earlier lessons in which children have become acquainted with different lifestyles in The Netherlands, suddenly the material is about building houses. With this addition, a stereotypical image is used of the primitive lives of black people.\nIt is important to be aware of those instances in which the lesson material relates the economic under-development of certain peoples to the prosperity here and now. In multicultural societies there are sufficient examples to be found of ways of living in which similarities and differences can be foregrounded.\nThemes with a Multicultural Complement\nThe methods developed after 1980 often offer some potential for intercultural complementation. Many methods are thematically structured and offer concrete possibilities for drawing all pupils into the subject. Mostly this requires some extra work and ingenuity on the part of the teacher.\nHere are three examples of situations that are recognisable for children in all cultures that offer the potential for reactions from their own world of experience.\nTom and Said\nThe subject is how and where people live. First, all the pupils from group 5 can say what their own house looks like. They are also asked if they have ever lived anywhere else, for example, in a village, in a town or in another country. The transition from close by to further away runs smoothly.\nThe illustration shows different parts of an interior without people. The three texts following are about those things for sale in a furniture shop. Then there is a text with questions about Said's house. Said and Tom meet each other and Said takes Tom home. One part of the text is as follows:\n\"Tom looks around. The room is not big, but very cosy. There are prettily coloured cloths and lights hanging on the walls. On a low table there are some very small cups. Said's sisters look at Tom and the beautiful red roses. 'These are for my mother' Tom says. 'Because tomorrow is her birthday.'\n\"Tom looks around the room. There are no chairs. Only cushions on the ground and a low sofa.' (...) 'Tom looks at Said's mother. She is pouring tea into three small cups.\"(2)\nIn this story it is clear that Tom and Said are from different ethnic origins. But they both live here and the story takes place in the present, making it recognisable for all the pupils in the class. The two children know each other and one can constitute a positive relationship. In Said's house an ethnically specific situation is introduced. Tom notices a number of differences between his own house and Said's. The text gives a genuine image of a person from a particular ethnic group, without generalising. The similarities and differences in the story can be lead into a further discussion about the children's own experiences. In the illustrations, Said's family life is depicted. His mother pours tea and his sisters sit on cushions and sofas. The multicultural society is presented in this lesson in such a way that it helps to reduce the distance between children from different cultures.\nFrom:\u00b7J. Davies, University of Manchester, Centre for Primary Education\nSource:\u00b7Fuzz Buzz Reading Scheme, Oxford University Press, Walton St., Oxford OX26DP, 1990\nOpinions will always differ about certain books. How do you deal with a book in which a 'black' is introduced with either a predominantly or an exclusively negative connotation? The following book could prove material for discussion, though one could always chose to play safe. Over-sensitive?\nDavies:\u00b7\"These books form part of a reading scheme designed for children who have experienced some difficulty in learning to read and are based in Scotland with Scottish characters.\nThese two particular books have been considered to have negative overtones, which might be offensive because of the way the character is called black and exhibits the personality grumpiness[]. The illustrations reinforce this view. Consequently, Manchester Education Authority recommended that these books should not be used in their schools. Some people might argue that this is an oversensitive responce.\nFor myself, as an ex-primary teacher and headteacher, I would not wish to use these books (9 + 12) because of the correlation made between blacks and grumpiness as this is an unnecassary correlation and could cause offence to some people.\"\nOn each page the character is referred to as Black Angus and it ends with an assignment for which the children are required to write two sentences beginning with the words \"Black Angus\".\nSentences, Vocabulary and Fill-in-the-Gap Exercises.\nThe tendency to associate black children with poor people far away can also be found in material that is not geared to a specific theme. It can be found in example sentences, vocabulary and in fill-in-the-gap exercises.\nThe President and the General\nIn a passage concerning 'The President and the General' the difficult words given in italics, 'perspective' and 'yonder'are cause for concern. Coincidentally, 'yonder' is associated with poverty. Further on there is a sentence that is intended to indicate the correct use of the verb: 'A black farmer, far away and with a very low income'. The guidelines for teachers deal solely with grammatical skills the children should be learning during this year. The content is merely an example, not essential.(3)\nThe implicit message is: far way...black people...poverty. White and black children are imprinted with a tacit understanding that there are barriers between them.\nNaturally, the teacher's immediate concern is the grammatical component of the lesson. Moreover, many practical examples will be needed if the pupils are to understand the materials. An alert teacher should pay attention to sentences of this type and those words with which pupils are presented that could have an effect on the formation of negative images. The teacher can leave out or replace odd words or sentences. However, while dealing with such material, the teacher can choose to take time out to make a critical appraisal with the pupils. S/he can ask: Is 'yonder' always a place of poverty? Do you know anything else you can tell us about 'yonder'. A positive addition to the meaning of 'yonder' on the part of the teacher puts pupils on the right track.\nHere are a few fragments in which 'close by' (western) and 'far away' (non-western) can be used together in a positive manner.\n'Dancing is something people have been doing for centuries. You can see this, for example, in pictures on old vases and in paintings. (...) Throughout the world, in every culture, people dance. In The Netherlands dancing is something people do for pleasure, but in some other countries you dance to show that you are sad, or angry or scared. In Africa and in Latin-America, for example, people dance at every opportunity: the birth of a child; when children become adults; when people marry; at a relative's funeral; when the farmers sow their seeds and bring in the harvest. Dancing is a very important part of life. (...) Another example can be found in refugee camps in Thailand. Due to the war in Cambodia, many Cambodians were forced to move to neighbouring Thailand. In the refugee camps performances are given by groups of dancers. These groups tell stories about daily life in Cambodia so that the children will not forget what their country was like.' (4)\nLanguage in The Netherlands\nIn this lesson the children do research into the languages spoken in the different regions of The Netherlands and in the class itself. Afterwards, a number of texts are read. These contain letters from nine children who were born in The Netherlands in which they write about the country where their parents were born.These descriptions of the nine countries (The Netherlands, Suriname, the Caribbean, Morocco, Turkey, Indonesia, China, Italy and Spain) are objective and factual.They evoke no negative images. The correspondents all speak another language or dialect at home beside Dutch. (5)\nThe entire story exudes an atmosphere of the 'genuine' old tales of voyages of discovery found in the history books of the father land. The explorer is, of course, a white man who 'discovers' strange, dangerous, unknown, black and primitive peoples. The text is written from a distinctly white-western perspective. 'We' have discovered something that is a curiosity. The only possible point of identification is the 'white observers'. The story itself is subordinated to the linguistic competence the pupils must prove they command.\nThe content of this kind of story can obstruct the learning-process in black children, as a result of which they may score lower than their usual level of competence. In a recent exam, one should not expect to find stories of this kind.\nThis society pays too scant attention to racism and systematic disadvantaging. There are subjects that are seldom discussed openly, honestly and without bias: why people come to this country; that there is an unwillingness to make space for other languages in education and social intercourse; the ways in which rejection of different cultural and religious values lead people into isolation and loneliness; how people are systematically located in run-down areas.\nIn educational circles it is usual to reason that 'children are not racist and it would be wrong to put ideas into their heads'. In our opinion, addressing the issue of racism from the appropriate vantage point is intrinsic to the role of educator.\nAuthors and those who develop school textbooks and methods are in the majority of cases of white, Western origins. They write 'about' rather than 'from' the multicultural background in question. If people from other ethnic groups could participate more in the development of methods and materials, or if they were asked to comment on the material, then there would be a gradual move towards a more balanced perspective on the diversity of ethnic minority groups in society.\nUltimately, what is of utmost importance is the critical evaluation of lesson-material. The following recommendations are the most important from the chapter above.\nReading lessons in language and comprehension teach children more than linguistic competence. Through stories and poems the children are learning not only language, but seemingly innocent fantasies and nonsense poems will influence their social and emotional development. They will relate the content to themselves and utilise reading lessons to form images of 'other' people.\nTeachers should be careful with lesson-material and look to see if the material proposed for use in reading lessons is not inadvertently reinforcing stereotypes. For this reason, almost all of the language and reading books written before 1980 are unsuitable. They fail to take the reality of a multi-ethnic society in The Netherlands into account. There is no reflection on the cultural similarities and differences between children in the present day. They only offer stereotypical images of the peoples and countries outside The Netherlands. Moreover, from the didactic perspective, they are dated.\nChose a method the allows the pupils to make a positive recognition of situations and that invites them to react from their own world of experience. The crucial test lies in whether or not the method embraces all the children in a multicultural and multilingual class.\nLook to at the glossary at the beginning of a theme lesson and prepare additional terms. If critical references to a multicultural society are absent, encourage the pupils to think up ones of their own. For example, make us of a 'word-field'.\nAlso, look at the ways in which people from different (ethnic) groups are depicted in so-called intercultural methods. Are they 'different' or 'strange', or are they 'ordinary' and can all the pupils recognise something of themselves in them? Do they appear in ethnically-mixed or ethnically-specific situations?\nChildren often become very emotionally involved with hunger and poverty in the world. Often school textbooks reinforce the association between poverty and pitiable, dark people because they base stories on the contrast between children in rich and poor countries. Keep an eye on so-called fictional stories and stories that are set in the past. Fiction and reality blend easily with one another, even for very young readers. These texts convey images as well.\nTexts with stereotypes can be skipped, or the teacher can ask the pupils if the image is correct: are all people 'there' poor; are all people 'here' rich; is 'there' really so far away and where exactly is 'there'? In this way the teacher can refine generalisations about a group of people.\nIntegrated Language Education\nGiven the multicultural composition of many schools, there are often multilingual children in the class. Integrated language education is education in which attention is paid to the various native languages spoken by pupils alongside Dutch. Generally speaking, this is quite rare. The various native languages are seldom brought into play in the lessons. Teachers are faced with considerable organisational difficulties if they are to pay attention to other languages. They do not speak the languages themselves, and feel as if they lose control of the group when pupils communicate with each other in their native language.\nBesides this, there is an ethnocentric attitude towards education that assumes it should be conducted exclusively in Dutch. Native-speaker methods, whether old or new, are essentially the same; they fail to help teachers cope with multilingual classes.\nThis is a great pity, because the chance to profit from the implicit knowledge and experience of all the children in the class is missed. For children who are native-speakers of Dutch, the relationship between the linguistic usage within and without the school and the knowledge and experience related to that usage is a close one. To take away that native language is to dam up, cut off, negate a part of the development of children.\nSchools that seek to accommodate the various native languages in the class, incidentally or structurally, have only had positive experiences to date.2 Some teachers work along with OETC-teachers (Education in Native Languages and Cultures). Others use classroom materials that can pay (incidental) attention to multilinguality, such as 'This is Who We Are' and 'Grandma Never Lets You Down'. The following examples will give an impression of this type of material:\nHow Many Languages Do You Speak\nIn the story about Hanan it appears that she speaks better Moroccan-Arabic than Dutch. It also appears that she speaks a different language than Fouad, who is also of Moroccan descent. Through this situation the link is made to the classroom situation: 'Which languages are spoken in the class?' After an inventory is made, the children are divided into groups in which they make a list, in two of the languages present, of those words which are useful in class or at school. By compiling the lists, the expertise of multilingual children is used. Dictionaries are only used as a backup.(6)\nThis entails a positive approach to the native languages of multilingual pupils. Children who seldom play a leading role in linguistic activities are now pre-eminently the experts. Children who only speak Dutch make an effort to find and pronounce words in an unknown language and realise how difficult it is.\nTeachers notice that pupils find more to say in Dutch if they have first been allowed to speak or consult with each other about a subject in their native language. It is noteworthy that the Dutch sentences become more complete, more complex and are also more creative. Recent research indicates that multilingual children with a dominant native language (in comparison with the second language) learn much quicker if the educational material connects with both languages. Experiments are being carried out in this field in The Netherlands, the intention being to offer support to schools and those developing teaching methods. Effectively, integrated language education should be implemented if all children in the educational system are to be given the most favourable opportunities.\nSource:\u00b7Odeyssea: acceuils et approaches interculturelles by C.

The two main areas to which native language education gears itself are linguistic communication and linguistic competence. The former is concerned with listening, speaking, reading and writing for communicative purposes and for the assimilation of knowledge. The latter concerns itself with the rules and regulations of the language (spelling, grammar, vocabulary and idiom) that help improve linguistic communication.\nLearning Dutch as a second language means that children must acquire Dutch at school and pursue the acquisition, while linguistic development up until that point has taken place in another language. It is noteworthy that in the didactic aspects of learning Dutch as a second language little use is made of the progress already realised in the first language. Rather than noting what the child already knows about its own language, the point of departure is what the child lacks in Dutch.\nOften, multilingual children are still given language education through the usual methods without any adaptation. In this case, a certain level of linguistic competence in Dutch is taken for granted, a level that has often not been acquired by multilingual children. This creates situations in which non-native-speakers of Dutch are set to work on texts and fill-in-the-gap exercises that they barely understand.\nSchools can buy special teaching methods for second-language acquisition that can be applied to Dutch as a second language. Native-language methods can also be adapted so that they are more suitable for multilingual children. This does require certain skills on the part of the teacher along with insights into the process of second-language acquisition. Moreover, a proficiency in selecting and re-planning lesson-material using the different methods is important.\nMany teachers know from their own experience which words are worth learning and which are not. Taking this into consideration, it might be more appropriate to waiver the use of the usual exercises in favour of finding an alternative that is related more closely to the needs of the child. Relevant words are those words that are necessary for communicating about things in the child's immediate vicinity, for the expression of thoughts and feelings, for functioning in the various classroom activities and for the child's future education at primary and secondary level.\nIn methods designed for teaching the native language the meaning of words is often not made clear. By taking words out of their context and isolating them in language lessons, children can miss an insight into their effective usage and the relationship between words and other notions. It is more effective to offer words in the more meaningful context of a particular theme.\nIn order to introduce a theme and activate any existing knowledge, a vocabulary lesson can begin with the class compiling a 'word-field'.\nsink                                                                                           washing up\ntap                                                         food\npan           oven          table\nWhen offering new words one should take into account that in some households children might learn some slightly different terms to children in other households. For example, some people might prefer to say 'sink' and others 'wash basin'. Surinamese people are more likely to 'do the dishes' than the 'washing-up'. Moreover, words can evoke different associations. These associations and meanings are called concepts. Concepts vary from person to person and from culture to culture.\nVarious concepts exist for a word such as 'yoghurt'. Dutch people think of a dessert, but in other cultures it is often seen as a side dish or a sauce served with vegetables. There can be a significant difference in the way a word is filled in by native-born Dutch children and children from ethnic minority groups.\nBy making these 'word-fields', the differing associations found among the children can be compared and in this way the words can be connected with the experience and knowledge of all the pupils. Children from different linguistic levels learn from each other. It is important to start off by grouping these 'word fields' around a theme, by means of which the children can make free associations. This exercise can take place with groups of mixed levels.\nChildren can be taught certain strategies by which they can derive the meaning of a word. This can be achieved by exploring the context, by unravelling words made as compounds of two or more words together, or by using illustrations and dictionaries. The teacher can make sure that there are plenty of photographs and illustrations for the various themes. S/he can present a notion and let the pupils copy it, but it is important to use the word in a sentence that makes the meaning clear. In a vocabulary lesson geared to Dutch as a second language the aim must be the communicative function; ultimately the words must become part of the active linguistic capacity.\nThe usual approaches to teaching Dutch contain a great many written exercises. The following is a typical example.\nFill in the correct form of to lay or to lie:\n1. The brush ..... on the table (present tense)\n2. The hen ..... an egg (present tense)\n3. Mary .... down on the grass (past tense)\n4. The conductor ...... his baton down (past tense).\n5. The boy ..... to the teacher about his homework (past tense).(7)\nWritten exercises take up a great deal of time and offer very few opportunities for repetition. Many non-native-speakers of Dutch need repetition; for example, in the case of frequently recurring sentence structures, verbs and idioms.\nIt is more effective to do certain exercises orally. This can be achieved by copying the exercises and allowing the answers to be filled in on the copy. The pupils can then use this answer sheet to do oral exercises in pairs.\nMany non-native-speakers of Dutch are also not ready for composition assignments. An open assignment such as 'write a story about the Vikings' is easily set but difficult to carry out if you are not very linguistically adept and have no idea what a Viking is. It requires a great deal of preliminary practice before a pupil is ready to start on composition. The productive written skills must be practised step by step and extended. Half-open assignments incorporating some sections with questions and short assignments are more suitable.\nThe teacher could also learn a few words in the child's native language. By showing an interest and respect for the language the teacher can make a contribution to the child's development of a positive image of her/himself. For assignments such as 'talk about what you did in the summer holiday' a child starting on second-language acquisition could use her/his own language now and again. More advanced pupils can eventually function as simultaneous interpretors. In this way children who do not (yet) have a command of the Dutch language can still feel at home in a group. Their own language can also be used in class when reading bilingual books. These books should have, for example, a Dutch and a Turkish version of the text, while the illustrations remain the same. There are also opportunities here to work with OETC-teachers.\nBecause all of this costs such a great deal of time and energy, and the desired result is not always achieved, the plea for an integrated language-teaching method increases in volume. What is required is a teaching-method in which elements of second-language acquisition (NT2) along with the didactics of second-language acquisition are integrated so that the problems experienced by non-native-speakers of Dutch can be adequately accommodated in native-language classes.\nThe teacher must dare to make priorities. Non-native- speakers of Dutch must learn the language to a high level in a short space of time. It is impossible to teach them all the subtleties of the Dutch language so rapidly. The usual methods should be examined critically: composition assignments and spelling exercises should be left out if the children are not up to them and more oral practice with sentence structure and verbs should take their place. Schools can also make use of the so-called zip-models. A zip-model is a plan which lays out in detail the exercise material from the native language that can be replaced by exercises from a special NT2-method for advanced pupils.\nIn the SLO-project 'Multilinguality and Language Development' different combination-proposals are tested in schools. The zip-models are geared to schools with different numbers of multilingual children. The following are relevant combinations of NT1 and NT2: 'A Language Racket' and 'All Language' or 'A Language Racket' and 'Going on with Dutch'. As schools use different methods in native-language teaching it is important for teachers to develop a proficiency in selecting and planning from among the wide range of lesson-material from the various methods. The SLO has recently offered a training course on which teachers can develop their advantages.\nNeither the usual teaching methods nor NT2 methods on their own prepare the pupils sufficiently for the texts they will be obliged to assimilate for their subjects such as history and social studies. In these other subjects there will be words and sentence structures that they will barely have touched on in their native-language classes. For these subjects they will need to use communicative linguistic skills such as listening, speaking, reading and writing integrally within the same assignment, while in the language-teaching methods this is not the case.\nEven if a child can deal with the exercise material in the usual language-teaching methodology without much of a problem, this is still no guarantee that problems will not arise with other subjects. In these subject areas the material is not drawn from the child's direct environment; everyday, general linguistic skills (DAT) are not sufficient.\nSome of the usual methods used to teach language and reading skills have been screened for intercultural content. The criteria used for the screening are stereotyping, representation, positive images, breakdown of role-patterns and ethnocentricity. The screening reports contain recommendations and suggestions for ways to complement methods with more intercultural substance.\nThe point of departure for integrated language education is its ability to make use of the multilingual class. Give the pupils the opportunity to prepare a theme in their own language, and then in Dutch. This approach often has a positive effect on the capacity for assimilating Dutch.\nA few methods use the multilinguality of the pupils, but generally the teacher will have to do some extra work. Find out which exercises are suitable for use with the languages pupils speak at home, including regional languages and dialects. All pupils come into contact with people who are multilingual. They can all learn playfully how to say something in another language.\nWhen introducing a new theme, a 'word-field' can be a useful resource. A 'word-field' can also be made in other languages. The advantage of a 'word-field' is that new Dutch words can be introduced inter-relating with one another in a very clear context. Make sure the words mean the same to all the children (remember the variety of associations applying to 'yoghurt'). With the 'word-field' you can find out what the children already know about a subject.\nThe Importance of Children's Literature\nEveryone would agree that it is important to encourage children to start reading at as early an age as possible, because reading is a way of acquiring knowledge. In books children are offered the means to expand their horizons and extend the boundaries of their experience. In a relatively easy way one gets to know other people, opinions, cultures, customs, other countries, and discoveries or developments in countless areas. Reading stimulates the development of language and obviously contributes to literary development in children. And, last but not least, reading is a very pleasant way to spend one's leisure hours.\nGradually, the point has been reached when it is no longer necessary to discuss the fact that reading habits can best be encouraged by offering a broad choice of books, nursery rhymes, poetry and short stories, at home, in the creche as well as at school.\nWhile reality itself is not being described in a work of fiction, the connections and relationships being displayed are recognisable on the basis of a familiar reality. It is never possible to keep society, reality, outside the domain of stories. We can only identify with characters in a book because we see recognisable bits of the world, even in science-fiction. A book is pre-eminently a means to empathise with someone else, to enter into their being. Children can learn this through books.\nWe have looked for children's literature that is suitable for use in intercultural education with children of twelve or thirteen years of age. This means that we are dealing with books which make a contribution to the aims of intercultural education and which enhance the pleasure to be gained from reading by children from different cultures.\nWe restricted ourselves to children's fiction, non-fiction, fairy tales, short stories, books on tape and poetry. We have also paid attention to nursery rhymes, verse and stories from the oral tradition, because these connect with a literary culture with which all children have experience, even if the oral tradition in schools has been watered down.\nWhere possible we will indicate if a book is available in more than one language.\nSuitable books, in our opinion, fulfil the following criteria:\n1. They should not be injurious to any ethnic group whatsoever. Injurious statements or denigrating language are easily recognisable. It is more difficult to read between the lines to see if various ethnic groups are treated paternalistically.\n2. A white, western culture should not be held up as the ideal for which one should strive, automatically rendering other cultures inferior.\n3. The books should promote the pleasure experienced in reading. Illustrations should clarify the text or add an extra dimension. Pictorial material can serve to support first or second language acquisition. When illustrations are used to help children understand the book, they will find it easier to talk about the book.\n4 .The book must connect with the children's experience of the world in accordance with their age group. Children should be able to identify with the characters in the book.\n5. The language must be correct (good Dutch, Turkish, Moroccan, Chinese etc).\nThe books discussed here have been divided into six categories. Some overlap can be seen in the divisions, but it has proved to be a good basis for use in a school library. The system is also used by the Educational-Audio-Visual Service in the public library in Amsterdam.\nBooks with an Intercultural Orientation\nIn these books the stories are set in a multi-ethnic and multicultural society. The stories and illustrations give a realistic depiction of the everyday lives, the religions, the manners and customs of various groups in our society. It is essential that such books should be available, but unfortunately there are still too few on offer in the Netherlands.\nBooks suitable for the higher levels of primary education are: 'Rosa' written by Mary Hoffman and splendidly illustrated by Caroline Binch. This book was awarded the alternative children's book publishers' prize in 1993. It is really superlative. The full-page illustrations, executed in poster paints, depict a black girl of about twelve years of age, full of self-confidence and with a high level of self-esteem. She comes from a socially-conscious family in which she is parented by her mother and grandmother. The illustrations contribute further information to the text as a whole. Rosa's attempts to get the leading role in a play are dealt with thoroughly and in spite of some initial scepticism on the part of her classmates, eventually she gets the role.\n'The Whip' by Nicole Boumaza is of very dubious substance. It gives a very stereotypical description of a Moroccan family in which the father is ready with his fists, the mother watches passively, and the children slowly become the victims of their parents' upbringing. That the author is aware of the tenor of her work is apparent from her preface, in which she admits to having written the book in this way deliberately so that she can cultivate more mutual understanding. In our opinion she has chosen rather for an affirmation of existing prejudices and stereotypical notions of 'the' Moroccan upbringing. She offers no examples of other Moroccan families, nor a broader perspective, and flummoxes her own aim entirely. The book is popular among teenagers, including Moroccans, presumably because this type of social melodrama is popular in this age group. But in an educational context that is multicultural, in which learning to understand each other better should be high on the agenda, this book is entirely inadequate.\nBooks About Children in Other Countries\nWhile books with an intercultural identity are very important for children, mono-cultural books are often very practicable in multicultural education. Children from ethnic minority groups have often built up enough knowledge of The Netherlands to enable them to understand Western, mono-cultural books. Especially books with a universal theme. In the same way, Dutch children can be interested in monocultural books that are set, for example, in Turkey, as long as there something recognisable in the world that is depicted.\nFrom:\u00b7K. van Gorp, Steunpunt Nederlands als Tweede Taal (The Support Centre for Dutch as a Second Language), Leuven.\nSource:\u00b7Taal-Verhaal; prentenboeken, verhalen en drama in de kleuterklas. K. Jaspaert (ed), Antwerpen/Deurne: Plantyn, 1995, p. 115. It concerns the picture book: H. de Beer, Een ijsbeer in de tropen. The Hague: De Vier Windstreken.\nWith a picture book like Een ijsbeer in de tropen (A Polar Bear in the Tropics) children can learn about travelling and being introduced to unfamiliar food. The book can be used for intensive practice in linguistic competence as well as for forming an acquaintance with new products and objects. These objectives are further explored in one of the extension-activities suggested by the Steunpunt Nederlands als Tweede Taal in Belgium. This activity allows the children to get to know unfamiliar products, just like the polar bear in the tropics. These can originate from all sorts of countries. There can be a variety of vegetables and types of fruit, as well as kitchen utensils (a pestle, a tea-sieve) ready in the classroom when the children enter. They have to look at the things closely with the intention of asking each other the names of the products or objects and how they are eaten or used. The teacher should encourage them to question each other and only step in when no-one knows the answer.\nFrom:\u00b7J. Davies, University of Manchester, Centre for Primary Education.\nSource:\u00b7Mennen, Ingrid & Niki Daly, Somewhere in Africa, Randon Century Children's Books 20, Vauxhall Bridge Rd., London SW1V2SA, 1992 (first published in Southern Africa by Songolo Books 1990)\nSomewhere in Africa occupies the territory between fiction and non-fiction. According to Davies:\n\"This book tells the story of a boy called Ashraf who lives somewhere in Africa, not the Africa where lions roam free but the Africa of scorched pavements and constant city bustle. This book helps people to confront the sterotype of the people of Africa living in villages or huts, or wandering as refugees in abject poverty. The words and pictures show the similarities between parts of Europe and parts of Africa in a vivid way. It is a resource in primary schools both as a reading text and as part of multicultural/ antiracist education.\"\nA good series for this primary schools is 'Everyday Life in the Third World'. Short pieces of text accompanied by clearly recent photographs and relevant information about a wide range of countries are offered in a contemporary lay-out.\nBooks With a Universal Theme\nThe themes that are broached in these books are so general that they would be recognisable for every child. They deal with feelings like fear, insecurity, jealousy and anger. In this group there is a great deal of choice, for instance 'The Red Princess' by Paul Biegel. The need to go against the grain of acceptable behaviour will the recognisable for many children.\nChildren's Books in More Than One Language\nThe importance of a good command of the native language is steadily gaining acknowledgement, both in its own right and as a prerequisite for a sufficient acquisition of a second language. Young children command many words in everyday usage only in their native language. When they are confronted with these words in a (picture) book or in speech in another language, they will fail to understand them. Since 1987 a great deal of energy has been invested in Amsterdam in work with 'intercultural \"look and read and listen\" corners' where children can look at picture books and listen to the texts translated into their own language.\nOther picture books readily available in The Netherlands are 'Ena and the Fish' (mentioned earlier), which can also be obtained in Molukkan, and, somewhat more difficult, 'The King Who Only Liked Purple' by Ismail Kaya (a multilingual edition in Dutch, Turkish and Arabic).\nFolk Tales and Fairy Stories\nFairy stories and folk tales are important in many cultures for the continuation of a cultural heritage. The transmission of this heritage from generation to generation is not restricted to the written word, but is also manifest in oral story-telling. Both Dutch children and those from ethnic minority groups will recognise elements of their own background in these stories. Incorporating stories from other cultures and giving them a positive evaluation will enhance the self-esteem of children from ethnic minority groups.\nThere are many suitable books on the market with Hodja-stories or Anansi-stories, such as 'Anansi the Spider Weaves Himself a Web Around the World', told and illustrated by Noni Lichtveld (for older primary school children) and 'Anansi and the Other Animals' (for lower primary levels).\nChildren's Books By Writers From Ethnic Minorities\nThis category falls into two: firstly, those books written in the language of the ethnic minority itself; for instance 'My Adventures with Abdullah', mentioned above, by Ghazi Abdel Quadir has been translated from Arabic. Secondly, books by English-language authors such as Virginia Allen Jensen and Ezra Jack Keats.\nReading at School and at Home\nTeaching children to read to a high level should be indivisible from the goals of intercultural education. In The Netherlands there are numerous possibilities for schools to combine their own activities in the promotion of reading matter with those evolved in public libraries. Moreover, those Dutch establishments specialising in artistic development offer support for many literary activities.\nThe message that reading begins in the family rather than at primary school is making headway. It is in the family (and in the creche, the playschool and the nursery-school) that the foundation for later development in reading is laid. The process through which young children are made to feel at home in the world of letters is called 'budding literacy'. It entails, for example, learning to work with a variety of writing and reading materials, scribbling and writing in young children, drawing, singing, writing messages with parents, recognising the first letter of the name.\nThe following factors can have an advantageous effect on reading behaviour:\nNaturally, the availability of books in the family home and through visits to the library; a quiet environment at home and parental encouragement; parents who read to their children and tell stories; discussions about reading matter; parental interest in what children read and advice about the choice of books.\nResearch indicates that talking about books at home has a positive influence on the reading climate in the family. This should start as early as possible. In concrete terms this means that all the stimulating activities that take place at school have better results if parents pay attention to them as well. This means that playschools, schools and libraries should pay a great deal of attention to the level of literary culture found in the homes of individual families by lending parents collections of books and cassette tapes and by singing 'the song of the week'.\nInteractive reading to children means inviting and stimulating the child, summarizing the material and giving information. This is important for children who have no experience of parents reading to them at home.\nReading outside school is sadly not a miracle cure for children with difficulties.5 It appears that children do read at home, but seldom. Forty-three percent of children in group 6 read less than once a week. The average time spent reading is ten minutes. The burden, therefore, lies with the school. More time will have to be made available for reading comprehension. Nonetheless, reading at home remains important from a cultural perspective, and because lying on the sofa with a book is a pleasant pastime.\nBooks show you reality. By reading you put yourself in someone else's shoes, form images of people in other cultures and countries and recognise something of yourself. Therefore, suitable literature is important for young people in intercultural education.\nIn order to make a definitive choice it is important to make an assessment of the content. What the author intended is not relevant. Keep asking yourself how different children would read the book and use this to decide on its suitability. In this way you can also decide to remove a number or books from the library and not to make them available to the pupils.\nLook to see if the content is hurtful to a particular ethnic group, and if white, western cultures are presented as the norm. This is not always clear immediately and you will need to read between the lines. Then you can ask the following questions:\nLook at the characters and the plot. Who is the main character? Which character develops during the course of the story? What type of relationship exists between the characters? Through whose eyes do the readers see what happens and with whom will they identify? Who speaks, who is active?\nHow does the omniscient narrator function? Does s/he correct stereotypes, for example, or negative remarks made by characters in the book? Check to see is culturally charged terms such as 'primitive', 'negro', 'hut' appear, and, if so, are they challenged?\nIn what way does ethnicity play a role? Does ethnicity determine a character or are the characters individuated with ethnicity being merely one aspect of their identity? And are the figures boys, girls, men or women? Are they role-stereotypes or do they break the mould? How are diverse cultures depicted? Are they sketchy and stereotypical? Rigid?\nPay attention to the illustrations: who is depicted and in what way?\nFinally, you learn to read at school, but the school cannot teach you to read all by itself.

        "raw_content": "First off, happy Black History Month to everyone. And Happy Groundhog Day. Put on your booties, cuz it\u2019s cold out there today.\nSo, I rounded up a group of nine friends and invited them into the project I talked about in a previous post. I\u2019ll begin with by expressing my thanks and encouragement to them for revealing to me, again, the joys of collaboration.\nBut I knew I needed to give some description when someone asked the other day on our Group.Me channel, \u201cso who won?\u201d (I see you, Ellis.)\nThe timeline: About a week ago I started soliciting nominations from those folks for a favorite hip hop artist, track, and album with no overlaps. Ideally, it would be something they are listening to currently, that\u2019s making an impression on them now (whether it\u2019s new or not). Then I made two Spotify playlists for people to listen to (more on that later). Officially, the February installment of Hip Hop Book Club started yesterday and runs for the whole month \u2014 the idea being that it\u2019s not too much to think that someone could get familiar with twenty tracks (from the artist and track noms) and ten albums (from the album noms) over a month.\nThe playlists . . . are really epic. I started listening to them as the first two nominations came in, and more, and more, until now I feel like my whole week was marked by new things showing up for me to digest. This will be my favorite part of this project \u2014 getting to know my friends better by what they listen to. If you want to listen along with us, here are our two playlists:\nGroup.Me: I\u2019m enjoying dicing all of this new music up with a running commentary on a Group.Me we put together that has everyone on it. Some folks have yet to jump in, but I like to think about it as an going chat about hip hop culture, jokes, memes, etc. that we can all share. I\u2019ve enjoyed this part the most.\nNothing New Under the Sun: I learned this week from an article on The Source that this concept is not new. A group of folks in Dallas started something similar, but not identical, two years ago. Guess what they called it? That\u2019s right: Hip Hop Book Club. Their concept is really interesting and with a much larger audience. I\u2019m going to reach out to them to let them know what we\u2019re doing in case they find it interesting. We might have to change our name next month, who knows \ud83d\ude42\nSo what do I do now? If you\u2019re a member of the club, we\u2019ll expect you to live in those two lists for the month. One you should probably spend time learning backwards and forwards (the artist/track list). The other you can use like a radio on shuffle, or pick different albums to listen to depending on your mood, or, if you like games, but it on shuffle and see how quickly you can guess what comes out of the speaker first. Get familiar with this music and remember that whatever is coming to you through your speaker has hand-chosen by someone else in the group with care. They really wanted you to hear it and know it. I\u2019ve been doing my listening homework a lot already on the bus, on my bike, and during runs.\nWho wins? At the end of February, I will send out a poll for you to to vote on a couple of things: best artist (across both lists), best track (across both lists), and best album. I might also take nominations for favorite line(s) and favorite backstory (as in, how did this song come to be .. probably from a review article or an interview). Then we\u2019ll all vote, and if the artist, track, or album that you nominated wins, I\u2019ll mail you a Burger King Crown. But even before that I\u2019ll be taking nominations for the March playlists, so make sure to expose yourself to some new things. Yes, if you really liked something from someone else in February, you can nominate that for the March playlist.\nPrevious Post Hip Hop Book Club",

We have built alliances with several health professionals who actively practice to carry these messages, focused on the topics of disease prevention, access to health providers, vaccination, adherence to medicines and health care for children\", said Felipe Palacios, President of PIA.\nLikewise, some pharmaceutical companies grouped under PIA, among them: AbbVie, Amgen, AstraZeneca, Baxter, Bristol Myers Squibb, Johnson & Johnson, Eli Lilly, Merck and Pfizer, provided 150,000 gallons of water per day to be distributed primarily among the main hospitals of the Island with this necessity. In addition, the Biopharmaceutical Industry is donating approximately 65,000 gallons of water daily to the communities in the municipalities where its facilities operate.\n\"We are an integral part of the Puerto Rican community and when the government called on us, we responded immediately to provide a solution to the critical water crisis that existed on the Island after Hurricane Maria.\" The daily donation of water from the industry supported the government efforts to continue providing basic services, such as hospitals and shelters. Initiatives like this, among others from the private sector, are critical and necessary for the stabilization and recovery of Puerto Rico\u201d, the PIA Board of Directors expressed through its President, Dr. Felipe Palacios.",

When he is taken from the Savage Reservation to London, he refutes the accepted merits of the \"brave, new world\" and points out its pitfalls.\nMustapha Mond is the antagonist of the novel and the symbol of the brave new world. As one of the Controllers of the new society, he represents the sophisticated, scientific society of the new world order, where conformity and stability are more valued than emotion and individual freedom. He effectively counters John's attack on his utopian society, forcing the Savage to realize that the old world order and brave new world can never co-exist\nWhile there are multiple moments of crisis throughout the plot, the climax occurs during the extended debate between Mustapha Mond and the Savage. The debate focuses on the crux of the novel, modern humanity's dilemma between the old and the new - between science and emotion, between individual freedom and social stability, and between materialism and spiritualism. The debate does not establish a solution to the problem, indicating that the two opposing forces will never be able to compromise and co- exist in peace.\nThe plot ends as a tragedy. John has not been able to adjust to the brave new world and ends his life by committing suicide.",

        "raw_content": "Kandy is in the middle of the Island surrounded with jungle and hills. The best way to get there from Colombo is with the train. You can also go by bus, but the train provides you a better view, especially when you are near Kandy. The people are mainly religious. You must note that entering temples with shorts is not allowed. You have to cover your legs and shoulders. What we noticed was that unlike Colombo, you get more stares on the street if you where short clothes. Therefor we could say that the people are more conservative.\nAttractions in Kandy\nYou could easily visit Kandy in 1 day, however make it 2 if you would also love to see the culture a bit more or visit the places near to Kandy such as the Pinnawala elephant orphanage and the New Ranweli spice garden. You can reach every place in Kandy by walking, however do note that there are a lot of steep hills. Especially with the Bahirawakanda temple it is wise to take a tuk tuk.\nThe most important place to visit is the Temple of the Tooth relic. The entrance fee of the Tooth Temple is 1,500 LKR per person (9.76 USD) and the visiting hours are between 5.30 am and 8 pm. We highly recommend for you to go when there is a ceremony (with offerings or prayers for Buddha). This daily so called \u2018\u2019Thewawa\u2019\u2019, takes place 3 times a day. The first one is the morning at 05.30 am, there is one at 9.30 am and one in the evening at 6.30 pm.\nThe temple actually houses a tooth of the Buddha. Next to the main temple, there is also a museum in the complex where you can see how the tooth is saved during the years by different kings. It was believed that whoever owns the tooth relic would also be the leader. You can also visit the smaller temples and shrines. These contain interesting objects such as ancient handwritings and books.\nThe Bahirawakanda temple is located at the top of a steep hill. You can see it from a distance, this is the white colored gigantic Buddha statue. The best way to get there is to take a tuk tuk. We got a tuk tuk for 150 LKR (0.98 USD) to the top. The entrance fee of the temple is 250 LKR (1.63 USD). The temple is build in 1972, so it\u2019s not an old temple. It contains a chamber where the story of the Buddha is told. From his early childhood to his final rest place.\nNear the tooth temple there is a lake with big fish in it. It is a protected lake, with fishing banned. There is a small island in the middle which was used as king Sri Wickrama Rajasinha\u2019s personal harem. It\u2019s nice to simply sit down and have a rest while you look around and maybe have a snack. It is not recommended to walk around after dark.\nHow to get to Kandy from Colombo?\nWe have traveled from Colombo to Kandy by train. There are two kinds of trains. The \u2018normal\u2019 one and the intercity/ express train directly from Colombo. The intercity/ express train costs 280 LKR (2nd class) and the normal train costs 190 LKR (2nd class). We highly recommend taking the intercity train. In the intercity train you have a seat number and you can be sure to sit. In the other train you don\u2019t have a seat number and if the train is crowded you might end up standing. Also the normal train takes 3.5 hours and the intercity only 2.5 hours. The train tickets can be bought at the train stations, just make sure you are there on time. The departure times of the daily trains available from Colombo to Kandy are: 7.00 am \u2013 10.35 am \u2013 03.35 pm. Additional on Saturday, Sunday and holidays 9.00 am and only on Fridays at 05.00 pm. And back from Kandy to Colombo the train schedule is: 6.15 am \u2013 3.00 pm \u2013 3.30 pm. Additionally on Saturday, Sunday and holidays 4.55 pm and only on Monday Saturdays 5.50 pm.\nAnother option is going by bus. However we recommend the train due to the beautiful views. The bus costs between 187 \u2013 400 LKR (depending on luxury such as A/C). It takes 3 to 4.5 hours to get to Kandy from Colombo by bus. The busses drive frequently, you just have to be at the bus station in Colombo (Pettah \u2013 Fort station). Please note that there can be very loud music in busses even at night. When we took the bus from Colombo to Dambulla we had a night bus leaving at 1.30 am and we could\u2019t sleep due to loud music and uncomfortable chairs.\nWhere to stay in Kandy?\nPlease note that Kandy is a city with steep hills. Consider this while choosing your hostel, it\u2019s really hard to climb up the hills. Don\u2019t spend your energy and money on the hills. You will have to take a tuk-tuk every time if you take a hostel on a hill. When you book a room trough booking sites, it can be misleading when it says that it\u2019s close to the city center. It may be in km but it doesn\u2019t mention the heights. You can make a choice between different hostels around 1,000 RP (6.51 USD) per person with breakfast. We took a private room for 2,300 LKR (14.97 USD).\nHow much money will you spend in Kandy?\nSo here is a summary of costs you probably will make during your trip to Kandy.\nTemple of the tooth relic: 1500 LKR (9.76 USD)\nBahirawakanda temple: 250 LKR\nHostel\u2019s: 1,000 LK (per person)\nTuk-Tuk one way (city centre): around 150 LKR\nTrain: Colombo to Kandy 280 LKR one way\nFood: on average round 300 LKR per person (less if you go to a less touristic place)\nHey!! Hey !! This is amazing guys .. really helpful .. and specially I watched your documentary video about Kandy and it looks really nice.. plus love your Instagram posts as well .. keep do your thing guys .. Big Love from sri lanka .\nHey Kassa, thank you, we really love this place! Lots of love x\nPlease don\u2019t promote the Pinawala Elephant \u201csanctuary\u201d. It is not an orphanage. It is a very bad place.https://www.responsibletravel.com/holidays/elephant-conservation/travel-guide/why-we-dont-support-pinnawala-elephant-orphanage",

This is how Roeselare (Belgium) is presenting its project with Dogbo (Benin):\nIn Benin, more than 40% of births are not registered. It means that these children have no legal existence. A proof of legal identity is however required to obtain a passport, open a bank account, have a driver\u2019s license, vote and access education and social security services. Without birth certificates, children do not exist and can even be abused. In addition, the civil registry helps to make estimates of the population in order to meet its needs, to implement national and sectoral policies in the fields of employment, housing, urban and land use planning, education, health (vaccination), etc. Without the systematic recording of all births and deaths, it is impossible to plan for the future. The civil registration is a competence delegated by the central state to the communes since 2003.\nThe Dogbo Town Hall has started the process of systematic birth registration, making it one of the first municipalities in Benin to engage in this process. In order to have a lasting solution, the Dogbo Town Hall has taken corrective and preventive measures with its partners to put an end to irregularities in the registration of birth certificates. Multiple problems were not obvious to solve. In addition, the context of voodoo plays an important role and influences in many cases the proper registration of births.\nThe process for birth registration was described according to the methodology of a risk matrix. Roeselare and Dogbo have started this exercise since 2012. The Dogbo Town Hall and the city of Roeselare have developed a proactive strategy, an integrated approach that involves:\nAnalysis of the risks of mismanagement of civil registration\nThe development and implementation of a roadmap\nThe multi-stakeholder approach (involvement of village chiefs and district chiefs, community relays, health workers, religious leaders, \u201ccrowned heads\u201d, wise men and women, community elders)\nThe use of SIGEC software for scanning, electronic archiving of documents and data management.\nThis strategy includes several innovative activities:\nThe capacity building of actors in the birth registration chain\nRaising awareness of the populations by different channels of transmission\nDigitization of acts in a database (software) and electronic archiving of data\nStrengthening civil registration staff (recruitment of 9 new agents including one per district)\nFree distribution campaigns of documents\nCapitalization of information to lobby at national level\nCurrently, the town of Dogbo has become a reference/a best practice in the field of civil registration. It recorded from 2013 to 2016 more than 40 field visits of the sister communes, state and international structures (the DGEC, UNICEF, MF, GIZ, CEFORP, CTB\u2026).\n(Translated from French by PLATFORMA)\nTAGS: Belgique, Belgium, Benin, Dogbo, Roeselare, VVSG",

If you do have an awesome plan, do you want to make it even more awesome? Are you prepared in the event of an emergency, or something else unexpected? If you are having major vacation anxiety, then read on for some settling advice.\nConsider buying an electrical adapter prior to leaving the country for a trip; a voltage converter may be a good idea as well. You will pay a great deal more if you have to buy it at an airport or hotel gift shop.\nTry explaining the security in an airport to your kids. You want to explain what will happen before arriving at the airport; however, make sure not to make it seem like a bad thing. When you have to go through airport security, go through yourself first so your child is prepared for what will happen. Stay close to your child throughout the security procedure.\nThese are available in many airports, and they can give your kids the opportunity to get some much needed exercise. This makes delays seem far more manageable and can also make the wait more enjoyable for your children.\nSelect a pair of shoes you will comfortable in and can remove easily for air travel. They will have to be taken off when you reach the security checkpoint. It is important to be comfortable. While flying and navigating airport terminals, you will spend more time sitting than walking, and therefore you do not need tremendously supportive shoes. Therefore, it is smart to wear sandals or flip-flops when flying.\nVisiting the desert is surprisingly enjoyable due to gorgeous views and interesting flora and fauna. The first time you visit the desert, you are sure to be awed by the vast expanses of open space and the breathtaking austerity and majesty. The desert is definitely a mustn't miss destination.\nIt isn't necessary to travel hundreds of miles to have a great trip. You can have fun on a day trip or a weekend getaway at a nearby location. It is entirely possible to have a great time in your home state. Save on travel expenses by staying local and supporting local businesses. Many great places to visit are right in your own 'backyard'.\nGet a workout in before you get on the plane. Long flights are found to be hard to sit through. Sitting without being able to move can make both your back and your legs cramp up. You will be more relaxed during your flight and can help avoid body aches by stretching before your flight.\nBe wise when traveling to foreign countries if you have or believe you have food allergies. Learn enough about the foreign language to understand if something may be dangerous for you. This will allow you to communicate to others what foods you are trying to avoid.\nDon't go to sleep before 8pm local time if you are adjusting to a different time zone. Stay up even if you feel tired, or you will never adapt to the new time zone and remain jet lagged. Jet lag will go away as soon as you're on the local schedule, so get your body adjusted as quickly as possible.\nConsider rolling instead of folding when packing your clothes. If you do this you will save a ton of room for more luggage. If you want them folded, then simply refold them when you get to your destination. Doing so means you will have less baggage to lug around on your trip.\nLook at when your passport expires. Some countries have very specific rules regarding passports, including when they expire. Most countries will not permit you to enter with an expired passport if it is within a given time frame. These range from 3 to 6 months, or could even reach 8 months to a year.\nIf you have never been on a cruise, you should still pack medication to treat seasickness just in case. Not knowing can put a huge damper on your plans. You will be bedridden, recovering from the seasickness, and not having fun. If you discover this is an issue prior to your trip, you can pay the local price for the medication and bring it with you.\nWhile packing for your trip, be sure to bring a lot of dark clothing, especially dresses or pants. You will hide wrinkles and dirt with dark clothes. You can bring some lighter colored accessories to give your outfits a more cheerful appearance.\nDo you now have more intelligence about traveling? Make sure to have a detailed plan about your time you will spend traveling. Are you able to work within your budget and capabilities? Do you know what you will do in the case of an emergency? This article should now help you to prepare for any vacation situation and answer all questions you have.",

After all, you want to make sure your baby is healthy and that you remain healthy.\nIt is important that you avoid foods that high in mercury. Fish are high in protein and omega 3 fatty acids, but mercury is a very real concern, especially for your fetus. Too much mercury has the potential to damage the nervous system of your baby. The FDA and EPA recommend avoiding shark, swordfish, King mackerel, and tilefish.\nThe FDA and EPA say that 8 \u2013 12 ounces of any of the following seafood are fine for pregnant women to eat. This includes shrimp, crab, tuna, salmon, catfish, tilapia, Pollock and cod. Different doctors have their own idea of what is safe, so talk to your doctor before eating seafood during your pregnancy.\nA pregnant woman should always avoid under cooked meat, eggs and poultry. When you are pregnant, you are at risk of bacterial food poisoning. To prevent foodborne illness makes sure the meat you eat if completely cooked. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it is cooked. You should always cook hot dogs and processed meats until they are steaming hot to avoid illnesses such as listeriosis. It\u2019s even better if you avoid completely.\nDo not buy raw poultry that is already stuffed as this can cause bacteria to grow.

All who obey his commandments abide in him, and he abides in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit that he has given us.\nBeloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. And this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming; and now it is already in the world.\nLittle children, you are from God, and have conquered them; for the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. They are from the world; therefore what they say is from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us, and whoever is not from God does not listen to us.

        "raw_content": "Having Dominion\nA Devotional for theThird Week of Lent\nBy Rev. Paul Henschen\nAnd God said, \u201cLet us make humankind in our image\u2026.and let them have dominion over\u2026.\u201d (Genesis 1:26)\nA basic premise of our scriptures is that God is Creator and everything else has been created. God has given us tremendous freedom by creating us in God\u2019s image and by giving us dominion over creation. So when was it that humankind decided that having \"dominion over\" meant we could do what we wanted to the earth and its creatures? Is that what God intended?\nThe Hebrew word for \u201cto have dominion\u201d is \"radah,\" meaning \"to rule over\". It is used frequently in the Old Testament to describe a king\u2019s rule over subjects or nations (see http://www.directionjournal.org/article/?922). But there is an implied sense of responsibility and care involved.\nWhen we consider the process of fracking, where does humankind's God-given mandate of dominion come into play? Fracking has allowed companies to obtain natural gas and oil from sources that were previously too deep to reach. But at what cost? Are we being responsible dominion-rulers of the earth by using the fracking process? Common sense tells us that injecting the earth with deadly chemicals might be a bad idea. What about possible contamination of water aquifers beneath the surface? Accidents have occurred and will continue to occur. Human error is inevitable. Spills occur on the surface (see http://www.propublica.org/special/north-dakota-spills). Also, companies are rarely using profits to develop clean, sustainable energy sources.\nA responsible ruler that has dominion over his/her subjects exercises authority with care and compassion. And our Ruler, our King, is Jesus Christ. How does Christ exercise dominion over us? Jesus Christ, and God whom he has revealed, is far more compassionate and loving than we realize. Jesus Christ is our model as we exercise our God-given dominion over creation. We are made in God\u2019s image. To be faithful to that image, to follow the example of Christ, how can we do no less than what is best for the earth rather than what is expedient for ourselves?\nRev. Paul Henschen is pastor at The Presbyterian-United Methodist Church in Ellendale, North Dakota, and he serves Presbyterians for Earth Care as the Midwest Regional Representative.\nA Reflection on the Forward on Climate Rally\nOn February 17, I joined tens of thousands of people on the Mall in Washington, DC at the Forward on Climate rally that was organized by 350.org and the Sierra Club. We gathered to encourage President Obama to live into the promises and commitments he has recently made in his Inauguration and State of the Union addresses; we gathered to raise our collective voices to tell President Obama to reject the Keystone XL Pipeline.\nThis system would transport crude oil from the tarsands in Canada to several refineries in Illinois, Oklahoma and the Gulf Coast. In doing so, it would further expand our reliance on fossil fuels, one more step in the wrong direction for climate change. It would add to rising temperatures and sea levels. It would threaten sensitive ecosystems with potential oil spills. It would add to the threat that climate change already gives the most vulnerable people in the world: that they will suffer first and worst as climate changes.\nI marched with a woman from my congregation in California and two of her friends from college. The three of them are in my grandparents\u2019 generation and they kept remarking at how wonderful it was that there were so many young people at the rally. I kept looking around at the crowd, amazed at how wonderful it was that so many different kinds of people were gathered together. Young, old, powerful, disenfranchised, Christian, Buddhist, black, white, Native, Canadian\u2026 the diversity of the people was encouraging.\nThose of us gathered on the Mall on February 17 were cold as we listened to many speakers. One, Chief Jackie Thomas, Immediate past Chief of the Saik'uz First Nation in British Columbia and co-founder of the Yinka Dene Alliance, said this:\n\u201cNever in my life have I ever seen white and Native work together until now\u2026First Nations are always expected to be the sacrificial lambs for government in terms of the economy, like the economy is a human being, like the economy is more important than our land and our water.\u201d\nThe Keystone Pipeline will not just effect the economy, it will effect all creation; we can\u2019t forget that. I don\u2019t want to ascribe Christian language to Chief Thomas\u2019 remarks, but her speech got me thinking about the Christian sacrificial lamb, Jesus, the one who gave up life so that all creation could be redeemed and connected to God.\nI felt God on the streets of Washington, DC during the rally and felt the Spirit moving in the crowd, as we marched to the White House to call on President Obama to work for a future where the lives of all humanity and all creation are protected and not traded for fossil fuels. I remembered Jesus, who worked in the world to heal the sick, calm the distressed, and find the lost, so that all creation would know God.\nThere\u2019s still more to the story and more work to be done. 350.org created this incredible blog with lots of pictures from the day.

Dana Eglinton\nGo to one of the internet mapping sites; set to \u2013 satellite image; search for Fort MacKay, Alberta, Canada; and scroll out a little so you can see the land around the town of Fort MacKay. You will get an aerial view of what tar sands mining operations look like. You will see open pit strip mines, processing facilities, and tailings ponds straddling the Athabasca River. Check out the mileage scale on the map, and note how large an area has already been denuded of vegetation and turned into an industrial wasteland. And know that this is just the beginning of the destruction of forests, and the pollution of air and ground and surface waters. To see maps of what more is planned go to http://oilsandstruth.org/maps-tar-sands-development.\nThe whole point of tar sands mining is of course to supply gasoline for your car and fuel oil to heat your home. To expedite the process of turning tar sands oil into consumable products in the United States the industry has proposed the Keystone XL pipeline to carry the tar sands crude from Canada to Gulf Coast refineries. Unfortunately the energy inputs required to mine, transport, and refine tar sands oil are much higher than those associated with conventional oil, adding an additional burden of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.\nSo maybe you should consider spending some prayer time this Lenten season in mourning \u2013 lifting up the damaged earth and its damaged people to God. Lament the ongoing desecration of forests, rivers, lakes, ground water, and air quality as the tar sands are exploited. Mourn the additional burden of carbon dioxide being added to the atmosphere. Cry for our impoverished imaginations that have trapped us in ongoing cycles of ecological and cultural destruction. Mourn, but find strength in the wisdom of Jesus, \"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.\" And then in the power of the comforting Spirit get back to work at stopping the Keystone XL pipeline and at getting a carbon tax in place to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\nRev. Dana Eglington is the Northeast Regional Representative for Presbyterians for Earth Care. He is pastor of Jacksonville Presbyterian Church, in Bordentown, NJ and a participant in its Earth Care Ministry.\nAn Ashen Cross of Our Own Making: 2013 Ash Wednesday Devotional\nAsh Wednesday and First Week of Lent\nA Lenten Devotional by Holly Hallman\nSo soon we come from angels singing about a new born babe to the dusty road leading the apostles down from the mountain and into Jerusalem. We cannot go back and travel with them but we can take our own journey, marking our path with the five, carefully and prayerfully chosen issues for PEC advocacy. There are so many things that could be added and we invite you to lay the ones that press on your hearts alongside our five. Come. The road is better lit when we see others are carrying candles, too. Take heart, in these weeks of Lent. We follow a well-worn path toward an empty tomb!\nAn Ashen Cross of Our Own Making\nAsh took on new meaning for me when I learned that, although Washington State is shutting down its last coal mine, the local energy company still sources one-third of its power from coal mined in Montana and extraction is going to explode as coal is taken from those same plains where the buffalo roamed and the skies were not cloudy all day and sent by train to ports on the west coast for export to Asia. Photos of the train terminal in Bellingham, Washington show a continuous cloud of soot hovering in the air around the depot. Does God\u2019s creation have a forehead? Are we marking a cross upon that sacred brow?\nThe five areas for advocacy that PEC has chosen are; mountain top removal, fracking, Keystone XL Tar Sands, coal exports (by train), and divestment from oil companies. The first four concern our creating energy that is putting an ashen cross on the forehead of us all. If there is hope for slowing and then reversing this ashen cross it comes from a faithful walk with the man who spoke truth to the powers of his time, found twelve stout companions to travel with him, and fed 5,000 people with very little.\nAsh Wednesday offers us an opportunity to assess our strengths, renew our faithful journey in the shadow of this Man and find gratitude for the fact that there are many more than twelve of us who walk together toward an ash-less future. May the ashes we wear on our foreheads call us to a Lenten time of simplicity. May we enter, with the twelve, the confusion and sadness of that long ago journey to Jerusalem.\nHolly Hallman is the Northwest Regional Representative for Presbyterians for Earth Care. She is a native of Colorado and lives in Seattle.

This was designed for the future generation of players.\"\nFederer tested but gets through in Shanghai\nRoger Federer was stretched to three sets for a second consecutive match to reach the Shanghai Masters quarterfinals on Thursday. Nevertheless, the top seed insisted he is content with how he's playing.\nDjokovic expressed similar sentiments, citing \"poor timing.\"\nThe Davis Cup competition will begin Nov. 22, 2019, after the official ATP season has concluded. Up until this point, the format was a 16-team draw spread out during the year, allowing players to drop in and out of the event as it progressed.\nThe decision to overhaul Davis Cup has been controversial from the outset. In late August, Federer voiced his displeasure in footballer Gerard Pique, accusing him of \"meddling\" with the tennis calendar.\nPique is the founder and president of investment group Kosmos, which spearheaded the Davis Cup makeover.\n\"The Davis Cup should not become the Pique Cup,\" Federer said at the time.\nOn Thursday, Djokovic said the timing isn't ideal, especially with the launch of the ATP World Team Cup set to begin in early 2020.\n\"I just feel like the date of the Davis Cup is really bad, especially for the top players,\" Djokovic said. \"Between the two, I will prioritize the World Team Cup because that's a competition of ATP.\n\"But also I think and I hope that there will be a larger discussion between the players to understand how we are going to approach these two competitions.\"\nFederer has not played Davis Cup since 2015, while Djokovic has competed in only two matches since the beginning of 2017.",

        "raw_content": "Alphas 1.05 \u201cNever Let Me Go\u201d\nFor the first time since this show started, I found myself a little bored while watching. Not just bored, though. There was a little disappointment mixed in there, too. Essentially, this episode was just way too predictable.\nIt followed a narrative line that would be more at home in a show like The Mentalist or a weak episode of The X-Files than Alphas. One of the strengths of Alphas is how it plays with your expectations and zigs when you think it\u2019s going to zag.\nBut there was none of that this week.\nJeffrey Hunt\u2019s direction was serviceable and the performances were mostly up to par. However, the script by Jordan Rosenberg just didn\u2019t bring the same level of quality that we\u2019ve seen over the first four episodes.\nI\u2019m just going to blame that on inexperience. Rosenberg has been scripting for just over four years, according to IMDB.com, but has only had nine scripts produced in that time (with the longest stretch being through 2009-2010 working on Medium, which, I\u2019m sorry, isn\u2019t a sign of quality with me).\nIt also marks the first episode scripted by someone without a solid background in science fiction. Since every episode so far is also having staff writers credited alongside the main writer, on IMDB, anyway \u2013 only the main name gets screen credit at the beginning of the shows \u2013 I\u2019m assuming that these folks are responsible for maintaining continuity and creating an overall cohesiveness.\nI guess Michael Chamoy and Adam Levy did what they could with this one.\nThis is also the first episode since the pilot where we don\u2019t have a clear parallel between the villain of the piece and one of our Alphas. Although, I suppose that if we stretch the comparison, we could say that Jessica Elkhart\u2019s (Isabella Hofmann) ability was vaguely similar to Bill\u2019s (Malik Yoba), except that instead of manipulating her own brain chemistry, she was manipulating that of others.\nBut it\u2019s a stretch. Especially given how this episode is given over to focusing on Rachel\u2019s (Azita Ghanizada) emotional issues with her mother.\nAll in all, this episode felt more like a watered-down version of an X-Files adventure.\nAnd for some reason, we get a weird pseudo-crossover with Warehouse 13 as the Bionic Woman herself, Lindsay Wagner appears as Dr. Vanessa Calder, the Warehouse doctor who also works for the CDC.\nI\u2019m not sure what to make of this.\nI mean it\u2019s interesting, in that it is essentially a case of Syfy doing a little world-building. Warehouse 13 and Eureka have already had cross-over episodes, although in both of those cases, there was a clear acknowledgement that that was what was going on.\nHere, it\u2019s more of an Easter egg than anything that serves the plot or the series.\nAlthough, now that Syfy has canceled Eureka I suppose we might someday see Sheriff Carter (Colin Ferguson) getting to play in this sandbox with a more serious approach to policework?\nAs much as I\u2019d love to see Ferguson get more work (he\u2019s the heart of Eureka and the main reason I keep watching every week), I really don\u2019t see how they can maintain Alphas\u2018 more serious tone while establishing it in the same world as Eureka and Warehouse 13.\nLike I said, I\u2019m just not sure what to make of this.\nNow with all that complaining out of the way, I do want to make it clear that this wasn\u2019t a horrible episode. It was just average. There was nothing special about this one at all, and it really drove home just how precarious the quality of a show like this is.\nIf they\u2019re not going to give more time to all of the cast members and allow them to interact, the story is going to have to step up. Luckily so far, we\u2019ve had a healthy dose of both elements every time out. Good chemistry combined with good storytelling.\nThis week, with the weakness in the story and the lack of character interaction, the cracks start to show. As much as I love David Strathairn\u2019s performance as Dr. Rosen, he can\u2019t carry the show alone. And I\u2019m sorry, but Rachel\u2019s family drama is not the most compelling storyline to emphasize.\nIt is nice to see her character grow a little bit, though, just as we saw Gary (Ryan Cartwright) become a little more independent last week. However, with Gary, we can clearly see where and how his autism affects his home life.\nWith Rachel, we\u2019re really not seeing much of her character\u2019s issues outside of saying again and again that her parents think she\u2019s a freak and won\u2019t be able to marry her off. She needs something to bulk up her character to move it beyond those preliminary sketches.\nAnd she\u2019s not the only one. Nina (Laura Mennell) needs some attention. And so does Bill. Right now, we can coast with Bill, since he\u2019s at least got his FBI career to help define and establish his character. But Nina needs some facetime and she needs it soon.\nOutside of her reaction in \u201cAnger Management\u201d after being pushed and realizing what it feels like to have her power used on someone, we\u2019ve really gotten nothing to bring focus to her character. She can\u2019t keep playing babysitter for Gary.\nUnfortunately, I don\u2019t think next week\u2019s promise of hot and heavy sexiness with Hicks (Warren Christie) is going to do the character any favors.\nSo there we are. The first weak episode of Alphas and it\u2019s got me running scared.\nThere\u2019s so much potential here, if Syfy will allow the show to develop along its own lines and if the writers and producers will allow the show\u2019s strengths to develop without feeling the need to begin sensationalizing and dumbing things down. The fans are sticking around. The show is scoring a consistent 0.7 rating every week.\nWhile that\u2019s not the greatest rating for a mainstream show, on Syfy it\u2019s pretty good. Especially for a show that airs on Mondays at 10 in the evening. But most impressive is the fact that aside from a slight drop from the pilot episode, the numbers haven\u2019t changed.\nYou\u2019re doing something right Syfy. Don\u2019t blow it.\nBut like I said, even though this was the weakest episode yet, it wasn\u2019t horrible. It was just nothing special. And I\u2019m already tired of them pulling out their fake badges and saying \u201cDCIS\u201d as if it meant something.\nI give it a generous 3 stars in the hopes that this isn\u2019t the beginning of a trend.\nAlphas 1.05 \"Never Let Me Go\"",

        "title": "Halloween Top Five Ghost Stories - Psycho Drive-In",
        "raw_content": "Halloween Top Five Ghost Stories\nNothing is scarier than ghosts. Why? Because unlike the legions of zombies, vampires, werewolves, troglodytes, rokurokubis, mummies, ghouls, flesh golems, and other assorted monsters, ghosts are real.\nNo matter how good the story or the make-up, deep down you know you aren\u2019t going to meet a werewolf coming home on a dark night under a full moon. And no matter how much you wish it were so, no centurial babe with pale skin is going to show up and offer you superpowers and eternal life for just a few pricks in the neck.\nBut ghosts, on the other hand\u2014they linger far past the final frame of the film. They float around the edges of your consciousness until that moment when you are home in the bathroom, brushing your teeth, and you get a tickle on the hairs on the back of your neck and an overpowering sense that looking into the mirror right now would be a Very Bad Thing.\nIn spite of this (or because of this), good ghost movies are rare. They require a more subtle, atmospheric hand than other horror genres. They require restraint and mood, not gore, jump-cuts, and pop-up monsters. Few directors can pull it off, and as a result there are far more bad ghost movies than good ones.\nBut there have been many excellent ghost stories over the years: Poltergeist. The Changling. The Others. The Sixth Sense. Blair Witch Project. Dark Water. The Uninvited. Kwaidan.\nThere was no way to actually assemble a \u201cTop 5\u201d without leaving out something important, so I just went with my five favorite.\n5. Ugetsu (1953)\nProbably the most beautiful ghost story ever filmed, Ugetsu is visually stunning, like an ancient painting shrouded in fog and silence. Director Mizuguchi Kenji took Ueda Akinari\u2019s eponymous 1776 literary masterpiece as his starting point, and wove his own spell of shame, death and love that lasts beyond the grave. With its reliance on eerie atmospherics over special effects and cheap shocks, Ugetsu laid the foundation for modern Japanese horror.\nUgetsu isn\u2019t going to scare you. It\u2019s not a horror film by any stretch of the imagination. They only genre I would classify Ugetsu with is the Japanese genre kaidan, meaning weird tale. But call it what you will, it is a haunting film.\nTHE haunted house film. The Haunting \u2013 based off of Shirley Jackson\u2019s The Haunting of Hill House \u2013 mixes the perfect cocktail of psychology and the supernatural. All of the tropes of a haunted house film are here; the cold spots, the blood on the wall, the whispering voices, the fools who go in search of the supernatural only to find what they are looking for. And even though the ghosts of Hill House are never seen, but their presence is felt on every frame.\nI first saw The Haunting when I was a kid, where I watched it on TV with my mother, who was a fan. I wasn\u2019t a brave horror flick watcher back then, but I was mesmerized by The Haunting and watched it all the way through. And to this day I still get the shivers if I walk into a part of a room that is a little bit colder than the surrounding temperature.\n3. Ju-On (2003)\nParodies and a string of ever-worsening sequels have robbed Ju-On of some of its power over the years, but it cannot be denied that director Shimizu Takashi made one of the greatest modern ghost films. With almost no budget, Shimizu tapped into that primal fear we all have of empty rooms, and the idea that when we think we are alone, we aren\u2019t. Everything in Ju-On comes from somewhere out of our vision, from under a blanket, or behind us in the shower.\nI was surprised when Ju-On was a hit in the US. I was living in Japan at the time, and I knew just how much Shimizu made use of the Japanese home, with all its little nooks and hidey-holes, to tell his story. He certainly made me scared of my own house. The idea of a lingering curse is deep in the Japanese psych, and Shimizu tapped into that fear perfectly.\n2. Ring (1998)\nNakata Hideo took the best bits of ancient and modern when he made Ring. Ostensibly banded on Suzuki Koji\u2019s novel, the film\u2019s story is actually quite different from the book. Nakata mixed in two Edo period kabuki plays, spiritualist practices like spirit photography, and the primal human fear of technology. We are always aware that there are some things the human eye cannot see.\nI love Ring. It is a film that improves on multiple viewings, something that is rare in horror films that rely on the initial shock. When Sadako climbs out of the television, it is never quite the same as that first time, but that doesn\u2019t make it any less good. There are many layers to Ring, many allusions to decipher.\nWhat is The Shining? A ghost story? A psychological thriller? A modern Grimm\u2019s Fairy Tale? A metaphor and revenge-thriller for the treatment of American Indians? A statement on the Holocaust? All of these have been put forth as theories to explain The Shining. There are those who say that there are no ghosts in The Shining, and point out that every scene with a ghost also has a mirror, showing that they are all in the imagination and that Jack Torrance suffers from nothing more than cabin fever.\nBut that\u2019s all academic bullshit. The Shining is full of ghosts. The Overlook Hotel is bursting with them. And The Shining is one of the scariest ghost stories ever filmed.\nI saw The Shining when I was young, probably too young, and it scared me for life. The sign of a really good ghost story is if it can keep you scared long after you have seen it\u2014years even. To this day, I hate walking down hotel corridors; the long, silent, dimly lit row of doors. The corners you can\u2019t see around. I know full well that one of these days I will turn a corner in a hotel corridor and see two of the creepiest girls ever born, saying \u201cCome and play with us Zack. Forever, and ever.\u201d\nBrrrrrrrr. . .\nJu-OnMizuguchi KenjiNakata HideoRingRobert WiseShimizu TakashiStanley KubrickThe HauntingThe ShiningUgetsuZack Davisson\nHalloween Top Five Obscure Horror Delights\nJason M.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Interviews | Film \u00bb John C. Reilly\nPosted by Kristi on Jul 26, 2014 in Interviews | Film | 0 comments\nChicago. Gangs of New York. Days of Thunder. And even the animated feature Wreck-It Ralph. These are the film vehicles via which actor John C. Reilly\u2019s showed off his extensive acting talent over the years.\nBut Reilly is also deft at another, lesser-known role \u2013 that being as a musician. He\u2019s actually been a musician for years, although acting took precedence for quite some time, since Reilly was a kid actor, to be exact. But the music \u2018bug\u2019 was there from the beginning.\n\u201cI started out as an actor at 8 years old, doing musicals in Chicago. All everyone really did then were musicals,\u201d Reilly chuckles, \u201cso you had to at least learn to sing and dance.\u201d\nGrowing up in a musical family was probably part of what instilled music in Reilly, as much as he found himself drawn to acting. He grew up with a player piano and guitars always \u2019round the house, so it didn\u2019t take long before the music started to find its way into his acting jobs.\n\u201cI never really intended to be a musician, but once people heard that I could sing, my film work started to ask that of me,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd once they find out that you can do music, you get asked more and more.\u201d\nPerhaps his most notable acting-musical combo to date was as Roxie Hart\u2019s beleaguered, devoted husband, Amos, in the film version of the long-running musical Chicago, in which his \u201cMr. Cellophane\u201d was a true standout among the film\u2019s many uber-catchy songs. Reilly\u2019s own music, inspired by classic Americana and bluegrass sounds, is worlds away genre-wise, but just as catchy and expertly-rendered in its own right.\nDubbed \u201cJohn Reilly and Friends\u201d (he\u2019s dropped the \u201cC.\u201d for his musical project, as the Screen Actors Guild doesn\u2019t require it of him in a different field), Reilly\u2019s band is actually a rotating cast of musician friends that perform alongside him both on record and on stage. His goal, you\u2019d think, would be to write new songs, as many musicians strive for \u2013 but instead, Reilly\u2019s aims are of a more historical turn. He\u2019s working to help preserve old-time folk tunes like those made popular by The Stanley Brothers, The Everly Brothers, and The Carter Family (which included the same June Carter who would go on to collaborate with, and eventually marry, Johnny Cash.)\n\u201cThe Stanley Brothers were one of the first bluegrass acts I listened to,\u201d Reilly recollects, \u201cand The Carter Family are still really the first family of country music.\u201d\nBefore them, he explains, a lot of the old songs had a chance of disappearing, as they were only passed along on sheet music or by people playing the songs.\n\u201cThe movie O Brother, Where Art Thou was also a catalyst in helping this style of music catch on again with people,\u201d he points out. \u201cIt\u2019s a genre that\u2019s really making a return. There\u2019s such an immortal quality to those songs \u2013 I\u2019m drawn to that kind of music. So we are just trying to help keep it alive.\u201d\nWith anywhere from six to eight people in the band, Reilly\u2019s already done a Midwestern tour this past summer with John Reilly and Friends.\nBut fans of Reilly\u2019s acting don\u2019t have to worry that he\u2019s abandoning one thing for another \u2013 his film career isn\u2019t slowing down either. Starting next week, you\u2019ll be able to see him in the much-anticipated Marvel ensemble film Guardians of the Galaxy \u2013 in which, coincidentally, music also plays a pretty big role in the plot.\nFriend or foe? Reilly as Corpsman Rhomann Dey of Nova Corps in Guardians of the Galaxy (opening Aug. 1)\nAnd in between promotions for Galaxy, Reilly has been continuing his balancing act by busily working with (White Stripe) Jack White in Nashville on a couple of tracks, with more on the way, if Reilly has any say in the matter.\n\u201cOh yeah, Jack\u2019s an old pal of mine now,\u201d Reilly laughs. \u201cWe will probably record an album with him by the end of the summer.\u201d\nUntil the galaxy calls him back for a second tour of duty, that is\u2026\nMysterious Motopony Posted by Kristi on May 1, 2012",

        "title": "ARMAGEDDON",
        "raw_content": "Armageddon - that is the word conjures up vivid and frightening images which mostly pertain to the complete and otter destruction of the world as we know it. This word gained worldwide exposure some years ago as the title to a popular movie in which Bruce Willis was charged by NASA to save the earth. The story line involved a massive meteor plunging toward earth that had a mass of one half the size of the State of Texas and which was characterized as a \u201cplanet killer.\u201d Its impending collision with our world would literally destroy the earth and every living thing that inhabits it. However, Hollywood once again saved our planet. Bruce Willis detonated a nuclear bomb deep in the meteor\u2019s core after flying and landing in a space shuttle on the meteor\u2019s surface and drilling a hole approximately 800 feet deep below the surface. All of this was accomplished within a period of less than 20 days from the date that Bruce was brought back to America from an oil-drilling venture on the other side of the world along with his crew. Don\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 I\u2019m a big Bruce Willis fan and I enjoyed the movie immensely; however, it wasn\u2019t Armageddon.\nAlternatively, we see the word used rather loosely in characterizing death and destruction in the world that makes the pages of our newspapers. Whether it be killer tsunamis, violent tornados, earthquakes, erupting volcanoes or genocide, the word \u201cArmageddon\u201d is sure to make its appearance. However, there is also another use of the word that is much more real and closer to the truth and that use of the word is one that highlights the final climactic battle between good and evil.\nThere is only one time in the entire Bible that the word \u201cArmageddon\u201d appears. In the 16th Chapter of the Book of Revelation, just before the angel of the Lord pours out the seventh bowl judgment, we see the word \u201cArmageddon.\u201d\nThe word \u201cArmageddon\u201d refers to a specific geographic location and the reference is made at the end of the sixth bowl judgment and just before the seventh bowls judgment.\n12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. 13 Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 They are spirits of demons performing miraculous signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty. 15 \"Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his clothes with him, so that he may not go naked and be shamefully exposed.\"\n16 Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.\n12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. 15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.\n16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.\nLet\u2019s set the time frame for these verses. We are deep in the Tribulation Period which many believe will take place after Christians are supernaturally removed from earth (an event known as the \u201cRapture\u201d) and after the antichrist has seized power and literally rules the earth. However, it should also be noted that these verses foretell events that are to take place before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.\nThe great river Euphrates is dried up and three demons are released with one purpose \u2013 to gather together all of the kings of this world for one last battle. This battle is to take place in a location called \u201cArmageddon.\u201d Hence, the word while used to depict an event, it is actually a place, a physical location if you will.\nCentral to the word \u201cArmageddon\u201d is \u201cMegiddo\u201d, a place not mentioned in the New Testament but certainly known in the Old Testament. Historically, the Plain of Megiddo was a site of battles waged and notably was the place were King Josiah of Judah was killed by the Pharaoh Neco (See 2 Kings 23:29).\nAccording to Nelson\u2019s Illustrated Bible Dictionary, scholars disagree about the exact location of Megiddo, but the most likely possibility is the valley between Mount Carmel and the city of Jezreel. This valley (known as the Valley of Jezreel and sometimes referred to as the Plain of Esdraelon) was the crossroads of two ancient trade routes and thus was a strategic military site which was the scene of many ancient battles. I have heard it described in a similar fashion, i.e. a valuable strategic location and a natural battlefield. This is the place where Jesus will confront His enemies before finally establishing His kingdom upon the earth.\nWith the gathering of the armies of earth, the angel of the Lord pours out the seventh bowl judgment and declares, \u201cIt is done!\u201d Immediately following this declaration, there is destruction poured out against God\u2019s enemies that is literally unimaginable.\n17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and out of the temple came a loud voice from the throne, saying, \"It is done!\" 18 Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder and a severe earthquake. No earthquake like it has ever occurred since man has been on earth, so tremendous was the quake. 19 The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. God remembered Babylon the Great and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath. 20 Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found. 21 From the sky huge hailstones of about a hundred pounds each fell upon men. And they cursed God on account of the plague of hail, because the plague was so terrible.\n17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. 18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. 19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.\n20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. 21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.\nRead those verses again. After the gathering of God\u2019s enemies and the pouring out of the seventh bowl judgment, a great earthquake sweeps the entire planet, i.e. the earth shakes and shudders in the hand of an Almighty God, and the cities collapse. Jerusalem is split into three parts. Every island is laid to waste and is swept away. Mountain ranges are leveled and after all of that happens, one hundred pound hailstones fall from the sky. I have heard of golf ball sized hail, baseball sized hail and even softball sized hail that can strip leaves and limbs off of trees. However, I have never heard of hail this large. In this past year my city was struck by hail that smashed car windows, damaged roofs and destroyed crops on a massive scale in less than 15 minutes of time but this was hail that was the size of a golf ball and slightly larger. It is beyond my comprehension to think of hail falling from the sky that literally destroys or kills everything it contacts. Despite this destruction, the worst is still to come.\n11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written,\n17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; 18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. 19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. 20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.\n21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.\nMost of the images portraying the personage of Jesus Christ are pictures that provide man\u2019s understanding of the gentle, caring and loving nature of the Son of God. It is not unusual to see a picture of a bearded young male of European descent talking to children or holding a lamb in his arms; very seldom do we see the image revealed in these verses.\nWhen Jesus entered Jerusalem the week before His crucifixion, He was riding a donkey; that was not coincidence. This was an image of peace and reconciliation. It is directly contra to the image to of Revelation 19:11-21.\nThe Jesus Christ that arrives in Revelation 19 is not coming to seek peace or reconciliation; He is coming to make war. This is the final battle between good and evil that most people think of when the word \u201cArmageddon\u201d is used in this context. This battle has one purpose and one purpose only \u2013 that purpose is to destroy all opposition to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. We see the words \u201cjustice\u201d, \u201cfury\u201d and \u201cwrath.\u201d Jesus is coming to make war and to destroy. He is accompanied by the armies of heaven but not because He needs them; the armies of heaven are there simply to witness the final act in this drama that has consumed the spiritual realm before time began. Understand this \u2013 this is only a war because it is the final confrontation. It is not a war because the end is ever in doubt. Jesus Christ, seated as a warrior on a white horse, destroys with the word of His mouth leaving carnage and bloodshed in His wake sufficient to feed the birds of earth. Nothing and no one will stand in His way. That includes the wily serpent of old whose pride and arrogance seal his fate.\n:1 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.\nUnfortunately for those who turned their backs upon God\u2019s precious gift of salvation, this final battle also serves to bring them to their collective end also. While Satan is doomed, so are those who have refused to bow before God. Armageddon, a place and an event, is also a line; it is a line of demarcation in eternity for those who have eagerly anticipated the return of their Savior and their God and for those who have despised Him, thinking themselves to be unaccountable for their actions and decisions.\nHowever, this event is not truly the end; it is the beginning. While it comprises the end of man\u2019s time to heed the call of God that has echoed through the ages, it marks the beginning of eternity so to speak. It is the beginning of complete joy, peace and contentment for those who have longed to receive their Savior; it is also the beginning of eternal pain, torment and separation for those who rejected God and His love made manifest through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, on the cross at Calvary.\n6 He said to me: \"It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars-their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.\"\n6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.\nYou may ask yourself if you are a Christian, \u201cWhy should I be concerned? I asked Jesus into my life to be my Lord and Savior. I accepted God\u2019s gift of salvation and I know where I will be when I breathe my last.\u201d Can you say the same for family, friends or colleagues? Do you know where they will spend eternity? Do you ever discuss these matters or are you too self-conscious about it? Do you fear rejection or ridicule? What excuse do you have for not sharing the greatest gift ever given to mankind?\nThe day is coming, and perhaps very soon, when Jesus will call His church to come home.\n42 \"Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.\n42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.\nWhen that happens, your opportunity to speak with that loved one, friend or acquaintance will be gone. Will you then question why you didn\u2019t speak or worse, will Jesus ask you why you didn\u2019t?\nAs you read tomorrow\u2019s newspaper, reflect on God\u2019s Holy Word. Is it coincidence that the Middle East conflict with Afghanistan, then Iraq and now potentially Iran, threatens to grow out of control? Is it coincidence that the United States is increasing its military presence in the region with additional troop deployment and another carrier group? Is it coincidence that our nation is torn in this fight against terrorism despite the fact that 9/11 took more lives than Pearl Harbor and damaged our economy? Is it coincidence that Iran thumbs its nose at the world (figuratively speaking) while developing nuclear capabilities? Is it coincidence that Iran\u2019s president announces his intention to obliterate Israel? Is it coincidence that a narrow strip of land lying on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea is holds the world\u2019s attention despite its lack of natural resources? What natural disasters occurred yesterday? Was it a tornado, an earthquake, a flood or a hurricane? The list could continue on but one thought comes to mind: Are we reading fulfillment to prophecy each day in our local newspapers?\nIs this the season that the Bible teaches us to recognize? If it is and if our time left on this earth is short, do you know when God will rapture or snatch away His children? Of course you don\u2019t; therefore, let us live like there is no tomorrow because there may not be. Live with the anticipation that each day may be your last upon this earth because it very well may be. There are no guarantees. Therefore, take the time to talk to a friend, a loved one or an acquaintance about the most important thing in your life \u2013 the love of your Savior. You\u2019ll be glad you did \u2013 I promise.",

In: 2002 ECPPM: eWork and eBusiness in AEC, 9 - 11 September, Portoro\u017e,Slovenia\nThe recent introduction of Windows CE-based Pocket PC\u2019s has changed the role of handheld devices from a PDA with basic functions to a miniature extension of the personal desktop computer. A major advantage of Pocket PCs is mobility. They fit in the users pocket and can be easily carried anywhere. The continuously increasing processing power embedded in these devices allows Pocket PC users to develop and run many applications that were, at one time, only available for the desktop platforms.\nUp till the early 90s. Virtual Reality (VR) and 3D visualization applications were envisioned to run only on desktop platform and highly powered graphics workstations such as the Silicon Graphics Octane. VR technology allows for real-time interactive visualization and walkthroughs [1]. In construction projects, it can be used to visualize walkthrough, interaction, modification in real-time a facility and its components and also testing what-if scenarios for various construction alternatives. The ever evolving development of microprocessors, 3D graphics and chips, and 3D software have made it possible for VR and 3D visualization applications to migrate to the desktop PC, and most recently to the Pocket PCs.\nThis paper explores the use of the Pocket PC platform coupled with multiple VR applications for visualization of design components and assemblies of building projects. It summarizes the proposed development of the needed to bring visualization environment into the realm of Pocket PC which could eventually be used as a visualization tool in construction. We used an iPAQ Pocket PC with 64 Mb of memory installed from Compaq.",

        "title": "Safest Places to Retire Overseas - Retirement Fund Solutions",
        "raw_content": "The ideal place for me is the one in which it is most natural to live as a foreigner. \u2013Italo Calvino\nI have been taking the magazine International Living for about 5 years now. My husband and I are considering whether we want to venture away from our secure but expensive lifestyle here in the United States to an exotic location where we can \u201clive like kings\u201d when we retire.\nThe problem we run into when we discuss where we want to be is determining the criteria that are important to us. Safety is very important to us but how exactly do you define the safest places to retire overseas? Is it based on crime rate, and if so, is it crimes against persons or crimes against property that matter? Is it based on the stability of the government? Do you base safety on the country\u2019s relationship with your home country \u2013 for us the United States? The other question is \u2013 safe compared to what. There are currently some places not too far away that I would not consider safe. The point that I am trying to make is that \u201csafe\u201d is very personal, as is \u201cbest\u201d, \u201ccheap\u201d, \u201caffordable\u201d, \u201cgood\u201d, \u201chappy\u201d, \u201ctop\u201d and on and on.\nSo what really matters when you are looking for a place to retire? My gut tells me that it is a place where you feel like you are home. I am sure that is very different for each of us. For example, I know that I do not want to live on an island. Islands seem too confining to me \u2013 unless of course you consider Australia an island. I have friends who live on islands and I love visiting them, but I grew up in a small town and the idea of living on an island seems much like that small town environment. Islands also do not seem \u201csafe\u201d to me. The only way you can leave is by plane or boat. I want to be able to walk away if I need to. While I would like it best if I could live in a place where English was the first language, I would probably be fine if much of the population spoke some English and there was a good sized expatriate community. I don\u2019t want snow nor do I want it too hot. Somewhere in the goldilocks zone would be fine with me. I do want to be in a place that has good health care.\nRight now, tops on our list is Panama. It is accessible, has the best infrastructure of Central America, has great health care and has mountains, where you can choose to live at 75 degrees F full time if you like. Ecuador is probably the most affordable place to live in the Americas but it is not as accessible as other countries and is very, very poor. Nicaragua is affordable, nearby and accessible, however it has poor infrastructure. Uruguay is stable, peaceful, relaxed and removed from the troubles of the world right now, however it is far away. Medellin, Colombia may be the place you want to be. It is pleasant, a pretty city and genteel. However there are drawbacks for non-residents. Things as simple as opening a bank account can be complicated.\nIt is good to remember that with the strength of the dollar right now there are many places worldwide that have a reasonable cost of living. There are a few places in France as well as Spain and Portugal that would meet all the needs of an expat wanting to live a comfortable lifestyle on less than $2500 per month. Vietnam, Thailand and the Pacific islands, particularly the Philippines, also offer a very comfortable, affordable lifestyle.\nI am actually thinking that what I would really like to do is take the first year or two of retirement and travel to everyplace that we might want to settle down. We have friends that did that within the U.S. They purchased a used RV and traveled throughout the western U.S. until they decided to settle off the coast of Washington State.\nSo back to reality and the question at hand. What is the crime rate of these locations and how is it trending. I will take a closer look at Panama because it is on the top of our list and for comparison purposes, contrast it with Portugal. I highly recommend you go the United States Department of State Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC) website before you travel abroad. Our State Department provides a plethora of information for free.\nCrime and Safety in Panama\nThe overall crime rating for Panama is high according to the Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC). You can download the full 2015 report here. Panama does remain relatively safe when compared to other Central American countries although crime rates are higher than would be found in much of the U.S. Murder and theft lead the statistics. The Regional Security Office has identified areas within Panama City and the rest of the country that have the potential to be more dangerous. The Mosquito Coast (Caribbean side) and the Darien Region (Colombian border) are off limits to all embassy personnel. Both these areas are rural and have limited police presence. They are commonly used by smugglers and gangs moving illegal drugs.\nPanama\u2019s roads and traffic are generally safe but driving in Panama City is often difficult. You should drive with your doors locked and windows up. Park only in well-lit areas, preferably with lots of security guards. If driving outside Panama City you should have full fuel tanks, extra potable water and food and ensure cell phones are charged. If using a taxi, make sure your taxi is registered. Public transportation should be used with caution, and the new transit system has not yet been evaluated.\nColumbian terrorist groups, drug traffickers and other criminals are common around the Panama-Columbia border. Protests as related to civil unrest are relatively common. Demonstrations often focus on internal Panamanian issues and rarely have manifestations of anti-American sentiment. There was a dispute between the government and an indigenous group over mining and water rights in 2012 but most indigenous protests are non-violent.\nPanama does have earthquakes but the seismic risks are lower than Colombia or Costa Rica. During the rainy season there are mudslides, road closures and flooding.\nCrime and Safety in Portugal\nThe overall crime rating for Portugal is medium according to the OSCA. You can download the full 2015 report here. Portugal is a developed nation with a stable democracy and a modern economy. Portugal, like many European nations is emerging from several years of economic crisis. Criminal incidents occur with less frequency in the Azores and Madeira than in mainland Portugal. Portugal has a low rate of violent crime but low-level street crime is common, particularly in major cities and tourist locations.\nHighways are exceptional and secondary roads are of good quality. Traffic enforcement is limited and people drive exceptionally fast and violate traffic codes. Almost all highways are toll highways and require an electronic device on your car to pay for tolls. Drive with your windows up and doors locked. Store valuables and merchandise out of site and park in well-lit areas.\nTaxies are reliable but ask the driver to use the meter. Always use a taxi from the queue or kiosk. Taxies in the Azores do not have meters.\nWhile Portugal has been largely free of major terrorist incidents, it maintains open borders and there is a possibility of terrorists to enter and exit with anonymity. Portugal does maintain an effective anti-terrorism effort and a welcoming environment for tourism and business. Police approval is required for all public demonstrations and police are present to ensure adequate security for participants and passers-by. Even peaceful demonstrations may become violent so you should avoid them if possible. Portugal is a multi-ethnic/religious country and generally a harmonious relationship exists between all groups. Occasionally, in depressed neighborhoods, inter-ethnic disputes may occur but are more likely to arise from socioeconomic pressures rather than ethnic conflict.\nEarthquakes occur both on land and in Portugal\u2019s territorial waters. Mainland Portugal and its outlying islands are prone to occasional storms that can create flash floods. Fires in northern Portugal can occur with little warning.\nInformation on safety for different locales is readily available with our wonderful internet access. I highly recommend that you make a stop by OSCA before you book your flight. That way you can access factual information and make your travel decisions from there. Don\u2019t forget to stop by my review on travel insurance to make sure you are protecting yourself from inadvertent losses.\nPlease leave comments to help all of us intrepid travelers along our merry way.\nHi, as someone affected with a wanderlust of my own, I found this a great piece to get the thoughts of travel flowing again. I wouldn\u2019t get too worried about safety statistics (unless they are extremes) as you can see anywhere, that there are always dangerous areas in any country as well as safe areas and an overall safety statistic will never tell you that. Better to get some local advise. Great piece though, keep up the good work!\nDear Paddy, Thanks for you comment. I totally agree. Statistics are just that \u2013 numbers. I have lived in some neighborhoods that others would never consider entering and just loved them. Local advice is easy to obtain when you visit for an extended period of time. Enjoy fulfilling your wanderlust. I can think of no better way to spend time.\nGreat article, my father is looking for a place to travel to with my mom after his retirement which is next year, I will definitely offer him to read your page, you gave a lot of information about Panama and Portugual. My father however was interested in going to Spain, do you think it\u2019s a good idea ? Thank you.\nDear Michel. I am glad you want to share my article with your father. Yes, I think if your father\u2019s plan to travel to Spain is a good idea. In fact, I think that traveling anywhere (with few exceptions) is a good idea. One should always travel with knowledge about where they are going and with their eyes open.",

        "title": "Call for Papers",
        "raw_content": "Calls for papers on:\nOpen & Distributed + Design & Production | Design strategies for enabling indie designers and makers\nVol. 12, n. 2 (May-August 2019), Strategic Design Research Journal Special Issue\nGuest editors: Massimo Menichinelli, Massimo Bianchini, Stefano Maffei\nDesigners\u2019 practices have constantly evolved in the last two centuries, and during the last decades new design and production paradigms have emerged, transforming the discipline from processes developed exclusively by professionals to processes where users have an increasingly important and active role. The digitization of society, the democratization of technology, the personalization of production and the gradual opening of the design practice are emerging phenomena that generate a new scenario in which the processes of creation, production and distribution of goods and services is undergoing profound changes\nThe increasing number of designers and creative individuals (which is not accompanied by an equally strong demand of design jobs) represents a new condition that pushes some of them to self-produce goods, often at a small scale, by integrating complementary resources they do not possess. This is possible thanks to a wide network of physical and digital platforms for learning and training, research, design, production, distribution and (micro)financing. This trend is strongly connected with the Maker movement, a loose global movement of individuals who focus on making physical projects but with a digital layer and digital tools, often with collaborative processes and the sharing of the digital files or documentation. Makers often meet and work in globally-networked laboratories such as Fab Labs, Makerspaces and Hackerspaces that provide access to a local and global community of like-minded actors and to several digital fabrication technologies able to manufacture easily and locally digital projects. The democratization of technology, education, content and community building of such laboratories increases the possibilities for professional and amateur designers and at the same time it opens up new possibilities of collaboration and interaction among them and with other stakeholders\nAll these phenomena, which integrate design skills and the \u2018making\u2019 approach, enable the development of new entrepreneurial types of professional producers. On one hand designers acquire more technological and practical skills, on the other hand, makers evolve their design attitude and capabilities. Design and production are becoming thus more Open and Distributed: among several actors, several approaches, several locations and laboratories. The change of design and production models is becoming the core topic of the research and innovation policies, in many countries, regions and cities. At the same time, several bottom up initiatives are being developed by local people and associations, especially in urban contexts. Moreover, experts in economics, sociology, technology are studying manufacturing process changes in terms of development of personal fabrication, growth and impact of new communities of makers and the return to new forms of craftsmen. Furthermore, we think this is an important issue for the design on a global scale that has many points of convergence with the global theme of social innovation.\nThe evolution of Open & Distributed Design & Production can be already measured in decades, with many initiatives by both practitioners and researchers, and its themes have been discussed already in several conferences (like Crafting the Future, Open Design for E-very-thing, several editions of the research strand of the FABx conferences, organized by the International Fab Lab Association, and many more), journal issues (like several issues of the Journal of the Peer Production, the Copytheft issue of Disegno \u2013 The Journal of Design Culture, the Open Design at the Intersection of Making and Manufacturing issue of the Human\u2013Computer Interaction journal, and many more) and research projects (MAKE-IT, Open Maker, OpenCare, Digital DIY and many more). This is a phenomenon that has already been promoted, discussed and studied by several disciplines and also design researchers, but while most of these contributions have explored its beginnings and main traits, we believe that it might be reaching a turning point in its evolution. Discussions about this phenomenon could be more strategic if they focus now more on how to make it more structured and prepared for the long term than just focusing on exploring common traits and how to scale it without thinking about a long term strategy. Political, social, economical and legal issues are increasingly relevant in order to make such initiatives inclusive, their processes and organization transparent and their management fair and equal.\nWe especially welcome proposals that addresses existing criticalities of the Open & Distributed Design & Production phenomenon and their connections with Strategic Design: how these criticalities impact over Strategic Design, and how could Strategic Design impact over them?\nWe suggest these strands for the discussion of Open & Distributed Design & Production:\nOpening Design & Opening Production: Open and collaborative processes are spreading in production of goods and services. Practices and modalities for value production based on shared resources and active collaboration between diverse stakeholders are growing in diverse fields. From software and information production (with commons-based p2p production) to the consumer sector, (collaborative consumption) to the public service field (co-creation of services) to social innovation and sustainability (collaborative services and product-service systems). This strand aims at exploring how design can support open and collaborative practices and which impact they could have on boosting a local economy generating resilience.\nPlatforms for opening design & production: Open and collaborative processes are spreading in production of goods and services. Practices and modalities for value production based on shared resources and active collaboration between diverse stakeholders are growing in diverse fields. From software and information production (with commons-based p2p production) to the consumer sector, (collaborative consumption) to the public service field (co-creation of services) to social innovation and sustainability (collaborative services and product-service systems). This strand aims at exploring open and collaborative practices of value generation understanding how design can support them and which impact they could have on boosting a local economy generating resilience.\nFactories for opening design & production: Fab Labs, Hackerspaces, Living Labs but also public libraries offering production facilities; infrastructures for prototyping and supporting local production are spreading, as facilities where open access to technology and collaboration between participants lowers the threshold for making things and testing activities and initiatives. The aim of this strand is to discuss how these infrastructures could become more effective in supporting local forms of production and experimentation.\nDesign for \"indie\" innovation: The democratization of design (from open source design to the designer as a \"mass profession\") linked to the rise of DIY culture generates a new scenario for the development of design processes which have very different characteristics from the traditional ones. This strand aims at exploring these new design process related to the autonomous development of new product-service system that can be produced on-demand and on-site; the regeneration/refurbishing and upgrade of products and technologies; and the creative repair and/or hacking.\nStrategic design has always been considered a specific disciplinary field mainly focused on product-service systems design and development. Its applications, methodologies and tools stimulate individuals and organizations to adopt and use design as a key factor/resource to innovate products and services, production, communication and distribution processes and generate economic, social, and cultural values. In an emerging scenario, which is characterized by the rise of open and distributed models, creative, production and distribution processes are transforming conditions and environments in which strategic design has operated so far.\nNew independent actors are emerging in economic, the nature of organizations is evolving in a hybrid direction, design and R&D processes become less hierarchical and more collaborative, user are changing the relationship with products-services systems. In this perspective, the influence and contribution of disciplines such as marketing - traditionally very \"close\" to strategic design - seems now less relevant as well as the extreme attention on brand identity and appearance. But strategic design is and remains a disciplinary field that highly stimulates individuals and organizations to think, work and act adopting a systemic perspective and a holistic view. For this reason, this special issue of SDRJ wants to thus gather contributions that explore what and (overall) how strategic design has been could and/or should evolve its own patrimony of approaches, methodologies and tools to operate and innovate in emerging contexts of open and distributed design.\nFurthermore, we also suggest to investigate the above themes, with the perspective of Strategic Design, focusing on the social, political, legal, environmental and economic issues especially through critical trends such as unemployment, automation, democracy, decentralization, decolonization, gender issues, sustainability, circular economy, degrowth, anthropocene, post-humanism, techno-evangelism, techno-determinism and so on. Proposals on different strands, issues and trends that explore the criticalities of Open & Distributed Design & Production with the perspective of Strategic Design are very much welcomed.\nBianchini, M., & Maffei, S.

From simple design management to dynamic design management, as Acklin and Fust suggest (2015), DM as a field of studies and scientific research have grown and developed. The map developed by the participants of the DMI Education Conference in Paris, 2008, consolidated as a paper by Cooper, Junginger and Lockwood (2009) shows us a good example of diversity as well as increased relations. As the search for the consolidation of the DM research authors shows the efforts made to delimitate borders, not limiting the scope of the field.\nErichsen and Christensen (2013) identified, using a systematic review with evolutionary perspective, the transition in the focus of research from cost/prices in the early years to innovation and business development around years 2010. Also the authors highlight the conceptual transition \u201cfrom management of product design to an integrated conceptualization of design management enveloped by the terms \u2018design thinking\u2019 and \u2018design and business models\u2019.\nFrom those perspectives, DM is considered a research field that grows and develops; last conferences shows us the continuing of the broad aspects where researchers can work. As well, DMI 40th anniversary corroborates to a solid perspective on the field as research focus and science.\nSome years later, what we could observe as research deliveries? How DM field has evolved as a science?\nSDRJ has the pleasure to invite researchers to submit their work to a special issue on Design Management.

        "raw_content": "How to Come Up With a Profitable Business Idea in 4 Simple Steps\nMost people get really anxious when it\u2019s time to start developing ideas for their business.\nLots of people love the idea of brainstorming ideas\u2026but can never actually find an idea that they like enough to execute. I\u2019m not sure if there\u2019s some weird internal test that gets run in our heads that makes us believe an idea isn\u2019t \u201cgood enough\u201d \u2014 but for whatever reason, it seems like there are two huge problems when it comes to developing an idea:\nWe don\u2019t think we have any good ideas, so there\u2019s nothing we can possibly see succeeding. This is the guy who\u2019s always telling you about a new project he wants to start, then you find out two weeks later he\u2019s already abandoned it.\nWe think we have too many good ideas, and we are completely confused as to which one we should run with long term. This is the guy who always has 12 projects brewing at the same time, all in various stages of progress, none really doing well.\nWhile these seem to be opposing concepts, they often ensnare us in the same dilemma: half-starting and eventually quitting. So where should you be focusing your time and energy? How do you know if your idea is good enough to \u201cmake it.\u201d\nFirst, remember something crucial: All businesses \u2014 services or products, online or offline \u2014 are a direct response to a problem. The purpose of a business\u2026.the only reason it exists, in fact, is to solve a problem. You should be actively thinking of how you can solve other people\u2019s problems. On a day-to-day basis, you should be thinking about thing you and others around you struggle with\u2026then find ways to solve those headaches through an idea, device, service or piece of software.\nBetter yet, start pretending you\u2019re Olivia Pope and become relentless in your approach to problem solving and \u201cfixing\u201d things.\nComing up with fresh business ideas shouldn\u2019t be something that you just do once a year when you need some money. If you want to be an entrepreneur, you must fundamentally change the way you look at the world, always seeking out opportunities to serve other people and get paid in return. With this in mind, your well of creative inspiration will never run dry. There are four places I look when I want to come up with a new business idea quickly:\n1. Hobbies and skills you\u2019re already good at.\nEverybody has SOMETHING that they\u2019re good at. The problem is, most of us take our skills for granted. We don\u2019t appreciate the fact that the knowledge and abilities we have at our disposal could be very valuable to someone else.\nMaybe you\u2019re bilingual, or you can play an instrument.\nPerhaps you know how to organize the HELL out of a closet.\nMaybe you\u2019re really good at cooking\u2026or building websites.\nYou might have even successfully completed a few triathlons.\nAll of those are things that other people want to be able do for themselves, but in many cases, can\u2019t. If you\u2019ve spent considerable time learning to do something \u2014 either in school, as an apprentice, as a hobby or even as a recreational activity \u2014 that time has immense value. Rather than learning to do what you\u2019ve done or putting in months (or years) of work grinding away, many people will be more than happy to pay you in order to get what they want much more quickly.\nYou can teach someone else how to do that. Or if you don\u2019t want to teach it, you can simply use that skill to provide a service and do the work for them.\n2. Things you\u2019ve done for work.\nSPOILER ALERT: \u201cLearned at work\u201d skills are a great place to look when fishing for your first profitable business idea. If you\u2019ve ever held a job, that\u2019s proof you have at least one skill or idea that somebody is willing to pay money for!\nLike most people, you may be under the assumption that your hourly wage/salary reflects the actual value of your skills \u2014 but here\u2019s the thing: there is no \u201cactual\u201d or innate value of a skill, service or idea.\nWashing dishes could be a $7/hour skill\u2026or a $15/hour skill depending on whose plates you\u2019re cleaning.\nBuilding a mobile app for your employer could be one of the hundreds of other things you do every year as part of your $60,000 salary.\nYour salary doesn\u2019t reflect true value, it just reflects your employer\u2019s estimation of how much they can afford to pay you after they\u2019ve accounted for all their expenses + made a healthy profit.\nIf you have a boss, you\u2019re not making as much money as you could be for your time. Period.\nHere\u2019s a partial list of all the things taking money out of your paycheck before you even see it:\nRecruiting costs \u2014 the employer has to find you and get your attention. This happens online, at career events or by putting a sign in the window. Every position needs to be filled \u2014 all the way to high level recruitment for senior positions. Costly, to say the least.\nTraining \u2014 it costs money for the materials you\u2019ll need to get started. Things like computers, software, uniforms, desks, stupid potted plants, and that ergonomic mouse pad that you didn\u2019t ask for with the weird hump by the wrist hump. All that\u2019s coming out of your salary. You\u2019re welcome!\nHealth insurance \u2014 If you\u2019re full time (40 hrs), insurance is costing you, and it\u2019s probably more expensive from your employer than it would be to purchase your own.\nFinancial programs \u2014 some companies offer 401K matching programs, stock options and other financial incentives, which are great. But will also cut into your salary in many cases.\nOverhead \u2014 this includes any physical office space and all the utilities and other recurring costs that come with the building the employer occupies.\nManagement and executive salaries \u2014 yeah\u2026often quite disproportionate.\nBy the time your salary is up for discussion, it\u2019s less about what you\u2019re worth and more what they can afford. In some cases, someone working a job that deserves $100,000 is getting $50,000 or less!\nThe skills you acquire along your journey are yours to use as you wish, at a price that you command.\nNow, your job is just to identify which of your on-the-job skills is ripe for the picking, start developing your idea and then find your customers.\n3. Things people ask you for.\nBesides the seemingly interminable amount of time spent in school, I think one of the biggest turn offs about a career in medicine would be the relentless questions from well-intentioned civilians looking to \u201cpick my brain\u201d about a medical problem they were having.\n\u201cDo you have a quick second\u2026I wanted to get your opinion on something.\n[DOESN\u2019T WAIT FOR PERMISSION]\nI\u2019ve been having this weird pain in my chest. It\u2019s a bit like indigestion\u2026but it\u2019s a little bit sharper. I usually always get it after I eat spicy foods. Any idea what that could be?\n[DOESN\u2019T WAIT FOR RESPONSE]\nYeah, because I checked on WebMD and they said I should get checked for polyps on my spleen if it doesn\u2019t subside in about a week or so. What should I do for polyps?\u201d\nOn and on these questions would go. But I guess that\u2019s how it goes with many professions, right? If you have a friend who is an attorney, you might find yourself shooting him a text that says something like, \u201cCan you go to jail for unpaid parking tickets\u2026hypothetically?\u201d\nPoint here is that whether you realize it or not, we lean on experts to help us figure things out, and if people keep asking you for help, advice or insight in a particular area, there\u2019s a good chance that others look at you as the expert or \u201cgo-to\u201d in their circle of influence.\nYou have to start paying more attention to things that people ask you for. If someone asks you to help them with something, your mind should immediately begin assessing whether this is something that could become profitable.\nDo you have friends who are always asking you for diet advice? What about people who are constantly asking your your insight about their relationships? Maybe friends and family call you to watch their dogs when they go out of town.\nStart paying attention to the things that people require of you, then eventually, you\u2019ll get paid to do things that you used to do for free.\n4. Things you want to learn.\nAfter teaching college test prep for a while, my second successful freelance business that I quickly scaled to over $100k was a web design company called Primal Digital. Guess what? I barely knew anything about web design in the beginning!\nThe idea started on a whim. I\u2019d already had a bit of success with my first business as an SAT tutor, and I was looking for something that I could do from my house. I was not an expert by any means. I knew just enough to get a basic one-page site up on WordPress and that was about it. It\u2019s almost embarrassing to think about as I type it now.\nI set up my web design company\u2019s one-page website with a very fancy theme to give the appearance that I was much more established than I actually was\u2026and proceeded to start posting on popular freelance job boards like Upwork (Elance/oDesk at the time) and a few others.\nWithin a few hours, I started getting bites for $1,000, $2,000, even $5,000 jobs!\nHow was I able to get away with this?\nMy first few clients were happy to pay me because even though I wasn\u2019t a world class expert, I still knew more than they did about building a website. Remember, for someone who doesn\u2019t use computers much outside of Google and Facebook, even setting up a basic WordPress blog is a damn near mystical process. I worked my way up doing simple work, and as my skill set improved, I was able to charge more and more for my services. I essentially paid myself to learn how to build websites.\nYou could do the same thing easily.\nFind a skill or idea that you\u2019re a beginner in\u2026but that you want to become really good at. Then gradually improve that skill set and find customers who are willing to pay you as you learn. It\u2019s like paying yourself to go to school for something that you actually care about.\nYou don\u2019t have to start as an expert. It\u2019s ok if you haven\u2019t done this before. You\u2019ll get better with time \u2014 and you can get paid in the process.\nIf you don\u2019t know where to begin, I created this free guide for you to realize your future isn\u2019t far off.",

        "raw_content": "It took me many years of traveling around Europe and not only to finally make up my mind and travel to one of the most visited cities in the world: Paris.\nThis was mainly because I had this idea in my head that it would be overrated and that if I did decide to go there, I might have too many expectations and would end up being disappointed. Also, the fact that it was the number one destination for romantic trips didn\u2019t really encourage me, hopeless solo traveler, to go there and be surrounded by couples taking cheesy pictures with the Eiffel Tower on the background.\nAt the age of 27, after traveling across the world and having seen a number of impressive places, I finally decided to give Paris a chance. After all, it\u2019s so close by and it is quite ridiculous to say I\u2019ve been to Australia but never to Paris. So I went ahead and booked my flight along with a five nights stay in an Airbnb and got ready to be either completely disappointed or pleasantly surprised. I won\u2019t spoil the surprise and tell you right away if I liked it or not, but I do have to mention that I had really high expectations. As soon as I even started talking about going to Paris, the people I knew started talking about how amazing it is, how I would be completely blown away, enraptured by this marvelous, astonishing, magnificent city. I have to say, that\u2019s a lot of pressure being put on you, my dear Paris.\nAnyway, even if this contributed to fueling my already high expectations, I can be a quite rational person so I kept my feet on the ground and left some room for doubt.\nI did my research, looked up the most important places to see, asked for advice from people that have been and lived there and well, I had already seen Midnight in Paris and that had a big impact on the expectations I had.\nSo without prolonging this any further, I\u2019m going to go through my six days in Paris and the places I liked the most (totally subjective taste, just to make it clear).\nParis -Metro Raspail\nFor starters, as soon as I arrived in Paris and got out of the metro Alesia, I noticed at least two of my expectations had been met: I started seeing people carrying baguettes all over the place (in the bag, in the pocket, under the arm) and I noticed the typical Parisian Caf\u00e8s at almost every street corner.\nCaf\u00e9 du Rendez-vous \u2013 Denfert-Rochereau\nMy Airbnb had also met my expectations: I had a cozy little studio rearranged in what used to be an Artist\u2019s atelier in a typical Parisian Impasse, big enough for one person, with a loft bed, a tiny kitchen area in one corner and a pallet armchair in the other, all very cute and tasteful.\nI got to spend almost one week in Paris and managed to go from sunny spring weather on the first day to real snowy winter on the last one \u2013 crazy mid-March weather.\nMontmartre \u2013 March 16th\nMontmartre \u2013 Match 19th\nSo here are the places I visited and what I think of each one of them, ordered more or less by preference \u2013 and it was quite hard to put them in a order.\nDefinitely my favorite spot in all Paris. I went there for the first time on a sunny afternoon, walking all the way from Cimiti\u00e9re de P\u00e9re Lachaise. After climbing this really romantic stairwell with street lamps all along, I arrived in front of the Basilique du Sacr\u00e9 C\u0153ur, this white church standing out on the blue background of the sky. Right in front of it, an amazing belvedere from where you could see a big part of the city. I\u2019ve always had a fascination with these views from the top so I stayed there enchanted for quite some time while people were taking pictures all around me.\nMontmarte \u2013 View from the Basilique du Sacr\u00e9 Coeur\nNeedless to say that Montmartre was one of those places that I had really great expectations about and that I imagined quite in detail so I was really excited about going to what is possibly the most famous artist\u2019s neighborhood in the world, walking along tiny streets and lovely squares filled with street artists. I have to say it totally met my expectations. After a walk around the Sacr\u00e9 C\u0153ur, I kept wandering around and finally, attracted by the sound of music playing, I arrived at the artists\u2019 square, Place du Tertre.\nMontmartre \u2013 Place du Tertre\nThere were painters and musicians and all kinds of artists populating the tiny square, and colorful caf\u00e8s all around, with tables outside and people enjoying the feeble sun of mid-March. It was obviously full of tourists and that kinda took just a bit of its charm away, like every touristic spot but still, the atmosphere was really nice.\nLe Consulat caf\u00e9 \u2013 Montmartre\nI stopped to listen to a musician playing the cello, took a tour of the square checking the paintings and drawings of the many painters and simply enjoyed the view. From the square, following a narrow street also filled with souvenir shops and caf\u00e8s, you get to the Caf\u00e8 Le Consulat and if you walk around some more and wander along the tiny alleys you can find amazing views of the city below.\nWhen going down on the stairway right in front of the Sacr\u00e8 Coeur, you can reach the lower part of Montmartre and a few minutes walk to the right leads to the metro station of Abbesses and the Wall of Love (Le Mur des Je t\u2019aime). A blue tiles wall is covered in the sentence I love you written 311 times in 250 languages. Apparently, the red shapes that can be seen on the wall are all pieces of a broken heart and if put together they make a full heart. It\u2019s a really cute spot with a small garden around it and obviously lots of people taking pictures.\nI liked Montmartre so much that I decided to go back there on my last day and I had a chance to see completely different views as everything was covered in snow. The white walls of the Sacr\u00e9 Coeur blended in with the white sky and the white ground and it gave it a totally different look. Place du Tertre was still filled with artists despite the very low temperatures but I managed to enjoy it a bit more given the few tourists that dared to walk around on a cold and snowy Monday morning.\nMontmartre covered in snow\nI bought an evening entrance to this museum, right after the Louvre, to spare some money (Thursday evenings are cheaper even for the not-so-young) and because I thought it would be a good idea to do it all in one day. Turned out to be not such a brilliant idea. It can get very tiring to just walk around and look at paintings and statues for something like 8/9 hours in one day. As the Louvre (or maybe more?) it is totally worth it but be wise, do it in two separate days!\nThe first impressive thing is actually the building itself since the museum is in what used to be the Gare d\u2019Orsay, a railway station built between 1989 and 1900. One really beautiful and distinctive feature is the big clock right in the main hall of what used to be the train station, as well as the two outside clocks at the two ends of the building that can also be seen from the inside, one in the caf\u00e8 and one at the end of galleries next to the souvenir shop.\nMus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay Clock\nAs opposed to the Louvre, in my opinion, the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay is the place to go to see amazing paintings since it holds the largest collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings.\nVincent Van Gogh \u2013 La nuit \u00e9toil\u00e9e\nThe most impressive thing for me was the huge collection of Claude Monet paintings, including a famous Blue Water Lillies but also Luncheon on the Grass, the challenge to Edouard Manet\u2019s painting with the same title, also here. Other paintings I really loved were The Birth of Venus by Alexandre Cabanel and William Bouguereau\u2019s Dante and Virgil. There are lots of Paul C\u00e9zanne, Paul Gaugin, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec; obviously Vincent van Gogh with his amazing Starry Night, the Self-Portrait and Van Gogh\u2019s Bedroom in Arles; Gustave Courbet with the controversial The Origin of the World; many Edgar Degas including some paintings of his Ballet collection, Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Millet with some examples of his favourite subject: peasant life; Auguste Renoir\u2019s famous Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette. This list could go on and on but these are the ones that stuck to my mind and that I found the most impressive, given that I was never an amazing student when it came to the history of art.\nEdouard Manet \u2013 Le d\u00e9jeuner sur l\u2019herbe\nOf course, the sculptures collection is also impressive with lots of Rodin sculptures and many many others aligned in the Main Hall of the museum.\nMy late evening museum visit lasted until closing time, I was so fascinated by all the paintings and sculptures inside as well as by the building itself which is totally worthy of holding such beautiful pieces of art.\nJardins de Luxembourg\nI went there on my first day in Paris, on a sunny Wednesday afternoon and found hundreds of people sitting around on chairs and chaise-longues sunbathing, all turned in the same direction to catch as much of the feeble spring sun as they could. The gardens are huge and very curated and neat, with benches and chairs that anybody could use to relax \u2013 not that I managed to find an empty one. At first, I had a walk among the various enclosed green areas with all kind of sculptures, including a small replica of the Statue of Liberty. Actually, it is a copy of the replica of the Statue since the original replica was moved to the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay in 2012.\nI went for a stroll along parkways lined with leafless trees as it was only the first hint of spring that wouldn\u2019t last long \u2013 it snowed just a couple of days after my sunny spring walk.\nI finally got to the main part of the Gardens, the area with the big round fountain in the middle and green grass all around. People were sitting on one side of the fountain with their faces in the sun and the coats to protect them from the chilly wind while children were playing with tiny sailboats in the fountain. As a first impression of the city, the Jardins de Luxembourg did a good job in meeting my expectations. It was a peaceful and relaxing view and I would totally recommend going there, maybe on a lazy Sunday afternoon, to read a book while enjoying the sun and the pure fresh air, while being right in the center of this busy city.\nCimiti\u00e9re de P\u00e9re Lachaise\nSo I have to admit that I mainly decided to visit the Cimiti\u00e9re de P\u00e9re Lachaise because of Jim Morrison\u2019s and Oscar Wilde\u2019s tombs but I did my research and realized there was much more to see in there so I thought it would be definitely worth spending a few hours one morning.\nThe cemetery is well known for holding many important tombs as well as for being the first garden cemetery (opened in 1804) and for holding three World War II memorials. It is also the most visited cemetery in the world.\nIt was a sunny morning and the walk around the cemetery itself was a peaceful and relaxing one \u2013 now seriously, what is more peaceful than a cemetery?\nThere\u2019s a weird feeling in walking among the tombs of so many great historical figures and important personalities. Realizing that I was staring at the place where that author I read so many times or that composer or singer whose music I listened to are resting, it made me think about how we all have the chance of leaving a mark in this world and for a moment I hoped I could absorb just a little bit of the talent and greatness of those spirits resting there. This is maybe getting too spiritual and that is not typically me but I truly felt this sense of greatness lying there just a few feet under the ground I was walking on.\nSome of the tombs I stopped to admire were the ones of Edith Piaf, Oscar Wilde, Marcel Proust, Chopin, Jim Morrison, Moli\u00e8re, La Fontaine, Apollinaire, Eug\u00e8ne Delacroix, Honor\u00e9 de Balzac and Georges M\u00e9lies.\nThere were also many beautifully decorated tombs of less known personalities and I think it is definitely worth spending a couple of hours to walk around and admire them and also take a moment to acknowledge the greatness of those people who have somehow contributed in bringing some beauty to this world, each one of them in their own way.\nNow about one of the most famous museums in the world. Little off-topic: my admiration for the Louvre suffered a bit from the recent music video by Beyonce and Jay-Z (as did my admiration for Beyonce but that\u2019s another story) but still, I didn\u2019t know about this back then so I\u2019ll just leave it there. You can look at the video and mute the sound to enjoy a couple of nice shots of the inside of the museum until you can get to Paris for the real deal.\nAnyway, you obviously cannot skip the Louvre if you\u2019re going to Paris, that\u2019s what I told myself. So after the initial disappointment and slight depression due to the fact that I realized I was already too old to have a free entry or at least a discount (free entry until the age of 25 if you\u2019re from the EEA), I decided nevertheless to do an investment and visit the Louvre, so I bought myself an online ticket for what was supposed to be a rainy day. Of course, the day turned out to be nice and sunny exactly until five minutes before my museum tour was over when it actually started raining, but that\u2019s again another story.\nIf you want, you could totally spend a whole day inside the Louvre without looking twice at a single picture, it\u2019s incredibly huge. I won\u2019t go through all the things I\u2019ve seen but there are a couple of things worth mentioning.\nFirst of all, the Mona Lisa (which is indeed a masterpiece, no doubt there) is by far the least attractive feature for me (sorry Leo).\nThe areas I found the most astonishing were the ones dedicated to sculptures: the Venus de Milo, Michelangelo\u2019s Dying Slave and Rebellious Slave, Psyche Revived by Cupid\u2019s Kiss and the Winged Victory of Samothrace are only a few of the amazing sculptures that made my jaw drop in awe. There are entire galleries filled with less famous but just as amazing sculptures and I could have spent hours staring at the perfection of each one of them if only I had the time.\nOf course, the paintings areas also contained some amazing pieces of art like the Liberty Guiding the People by Eug\u00e8ne Delacroix, The Raft of the Medusa by Th\u00e9odore G\u00e9ricault, Gabrielle d\u2019Estr\u00e9es and one of her Sisters and the newly restored unconventional David and Goliath by Daniele da Volterra painted on both sides.\nLa Libert\u00e9 guidant le peuple \u2013 Eug\u00e8ne Delacroix\nAll in all the Louvre is definitely worth the time and money. It\u2019s tiring so get ready to walk a lot but it repays in beauty and magnificence.\nOne of the most famous cathedrals in the world. I have to say initially I was a bit let down as soon as I saw it from Pont Saint-Michel as I expected it to be a bit more eye-catching.\nCath\u00e9drale Notre-Dame de Paris \u2013 view from Pont Saint-Michel\nInstead, the front doesn\u2019t look particularly magnificent but what really conquered me was the sides and back of the cathedral with the famous gargoyles and chimeras and even more the inside.\nIt truly is an amazing example of Gothic architecture and as I got in I walked around staring at the high ceiling, the arcades and columns and colored windows like the north rose window. Inside it was also possible to see and read about the whole history of the construction of the cathedral on some panels that explained and showed the evolution of this amazing construction, from how it used to be in 1163 when the construction of the choir begun, all the way to when the last details were completed almost 200 years later, in 1345, with multiple architects working in their own singular style.When walking around the cathedral on the outside, it\u2019s possible to see the totally different style of the back as well as the gargoyles lined along the sides. What I did not know is that actually, the gargoyles have a purpose: they are drain sprouts so that rainwater won\u2019t damage the walls of the cathedral. It\u2019s interesting to see how each one of them looks different due to the damages and erosion throughout the centuries. There are some that look scary and angry and other that seem to be smiling at you.\nGargoyles \u2013 Cath\u00e9drale Notre-Dame de Paris\nUnfortunately, I didn\u2019t climb all the way up but that\u2019s definitely on my to do list for next time I visit Paris.\nHere it goes: the famous Parisian monument and one of the most famous in the world. I didn\u2019t make it in time to book the tickets online (apparently they are not available even if you look with one week of advance) but I thought come on! I can\u2019t go to Paris and not go on top of the Tour Eiffel, right? Especially with my passion for high buildings and views from the top. So I gathered all the patience I had and decided to give it a chance by going straight there and buying the ticket on the spot. I was already planning on going a bit before sunset so I could enjoy the view from the top during my favorite time of the day. Little did I know that almost four hours of queue were waiting for me. I endured that only because I was there with friends, otherwise hyperactive restless me could never have waited in line alone all that time. Obviously, sunset came and went by, nighttime fell over Paris, the tower started lighting up at the strike of the hour and at some point, it even started raining. After the endless wait, we finally managed to climb up.\nParis \u2013 View from the Tour Eiffel\nI have to say that the view is pretty amazing even during nighttime. You can see Paris from every point of view and angle and get lost in the city lights. It was obviously very windy and freezing cold which made it hard to just stand there and enjoy the view as I would have liked to do. Instead, I had to take a quick tour of the floor, admire the city, take a few photos and then I was completely frozen and dying to go back on the ground.\nIf you\u2019re asking me if it\u2019s worth it I would say it totally is but maybe during daytime or sunset and definitely on a less cold day.\nThe highlight of the evening for me was when we got back down and waited for the hour to strike to see the flashing lights on. It was in my opinion even better than the view from the top and definitely way better than seeing the tower during the daytime.\nTour Eiffel lit up\nNutella cr\u00eape with whipped cream\nA friend of mine told me this was the place to go to have a really delicious cr\u00eape so I took her advice and on a rainy late afternoon, I decided it would be a good idea to find a cozy warm place where I could rest while experiencing some French cuisine.\nI looked for a place the least touristy possible and got a table next to the window to enjoy the street view and I obviously went for a Nutella cr\u00eape with whipped cream on top. I have to say that it was one of the best crepes I ever had and it was incredibly fulfilling.\nThe island itself was really cute and I don\u2019t know if it was due to the cold and light rain but the fact that there were only a few people on the streets made it even better: in case it wasn\u2019t clear I don\u2019t really like places that are crowded with tourists taking pictures. This might come as pretentious coming from a tourist but whenever I visit a new place I try to get an authentic, local experience, despite the fact that you will see me wandering around, my head turning in every direction and my eyes trying to take it all in. Not to mention the ever-present camera but hey, I still do that even in my hometown or in places I\u2019ve lived in for months or years.\nAnyway, after my crepe I walked around some more, admiring the corner street caf\u00e9s and the street lamps reflecting on the wet cobblestone street and for a moment it felt like being a scene from Midnight in Paris.\nDinner in Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s\nMaison Sauvage \u2013 Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s\nWhen I asked my friends for nice places to go out in the evening and maybe have dinner they all suggested Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s so I decided to give it a try.\nThe neighborhood is a central one in Paris, in the 6th arrondissement, south of the river Seine Seine, where the church of the former Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s is located.\nThe area is associated with the Existentialist movement in the 1940s and 1950s which had as main figures Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. The whole area is filled with bookshops and with famous caf\u00e9s such as Le Deux Magots, once the rendezvous of the intellectual \u00e9lite of the city or Caf\u00e9 de Flore, one of the oldest coffeehouses in Paris.\nI first took a walk around during a late afternoon, walking from the Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s church along Boulevard Saint-Germain and then wandered around the tiny streets filled with bars and restaurants.\nIn the whole neighborhood, there\u2019s a really nice atmosphere with a truly \u201cParisian\u201d feeling with little alleys and the lots and lots of caf\u00e9s, all with a cozy looking atmosphere inside.\nSteak Chateaubriand\nWe wanted to go to a typically French restaurant to try some local cuisine but we didn\u2019t really do a research or choose a specific place so we just walked around until a rustic French restaurant caught our eye and we decided to go in.\nWe had a menu with an onion soup to start and a Chateaubriand steak (I personally chose it because it sounded really fancy) with a side of fries and green beans and an amazing b\u00e9arnaise sauce.\nUnfortunately the weather was again not in our favour, with a light rain and really low temperatures, so we didn\u2019t get a chance to enjoy the neighborhood much after dinner but the areas must be really nice for a walk on a warm summer night and a cocktail at one of the bars \u2013 like Maison Sauvage which really caught my eye.\nThe place to go to have a nice view of the Tour Eiffel and take a romantic photo. I obviously settled with taking a few selfies and asking some random passer-by to take a picture of me with the cloudy background and the Parisian monument.\nOn the hill of Trocad\u00e9ro, formerly hill of Chaillot, you can find the Palais de Chaillot, rebuilt for the Exposition Internationale of 1937 from the Palais du Trocad\u00e9ro which had been previously arranged for the 1867 World\u2019s Fair.\nUnfortunately, by the time I got here, almost at the end of my trip, winter had come. The sky was grey with heavy clouds, it was freezing cold and after a bit, it started snowing. It\u2019s a place I would definitely love to go back to enjoy the view, maybe with a blue sky on a sunny warm day and take a few photos.\nAfter taking some time to admire the view I decided it would be wiser to just get a salted caramel crepe and get going. It\u2019s not far away from Trocad\u00e9ro that you can find a tiny park with a lovely less mainstream view of the Tour Eiffel and Pont d\u2019I\u00e9na which leads right in front of the monument. By the time I got on the bridge, everything was a blurry white mess which made it impossible to even look up at the tower so I continued with my snowy promenade along the Seine.\nCimiti\u00e9re de Montmartre\nNot as famous and big as the P\u00e9re Lachaise one but definitely a place to visit if you have some spare time. I went there the second time I was in Montmartre, on a cold Monday morning so the place was mostly empty.\nThe cemetery is actually the third largest one in Paris, right after P\u00e9re Lachaise and the Montparnasse one. It mostly holds the tombs of famous artists that lived and worked in the Montmartre area and it was built in 1825.\nThe cemetery is situated in the lower part of Montmartre, below street level and it still has only one entrance as when it was built.\nSome of the most important tombs you can find here are the ones of the composer Hector Berlioz, the singer and actress Dalida, the writer Stendhal, the painter Edgar Degas, the novelist Alexandre Dumas (son), the filmmaker Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut and it originally held the remains of \u00c9mile Zoila, moved in the Pantheon in 1908 while the family tomb is still here along with his name on it.\nAgain, as for the P\u00e9re Lachaise cemetery, it\u2019s worth to take a walk and admire the beautifully decorated graves, the chapels and the statues around the cemetery itself.\nAtelier de Brancusi\nWhat to do on a rainy afternoon in Paris for free? You can visit the Atelier of Brancusi, right next to the Centre Pompidou. I obviously had to go there since he\u2019s one of the few artists from my home country which is also very famous around the world. Constantin Brancusi is a famous modern sculptor born in Romania but he spent most of his life in Paris where he opened his first atelier in Rue du Montparnasse in 1907. The artist left all his art pieces to the French state that reconstructed the atelier in 1997 in the same square that holds the Centre Pompidou.\nBrancusi saw the atelier like a Temple where every sculpture had his own place and nothing was left around casually. The atelier where we can now admire the artist\u2019s sculptures was re-created based on the artist\u2019s latest work atelier with every sculpture placed in its own original spot.\nThe most famous sculptures created by Brancusi are the Endless Column, the series Bird in the space (L\u2019Oiseau dans l\u2019espace) and the controversial Princess X.\nThe famous avenue lined with designer shops is obviously a place to see when in Paris even if it wasn\u2019t the thing I felt most attracted to.\nI think it\u2019s nice to take a walk if you have some spare time or if you actually want to go for some shopping as it\u2019s a really nice avenue and there are many shops but, to be honest in my opinion the best thing about the Champs Elys\u00e9es is the Arc de Triomphe at the end.\nI didn\u2019t get a chance to go on top and enjoy the view because of the bad weather as it was freezing cold and because honestly I didn\u2019t want to stand in line but it is quite impressive already from the other end of the avenue. It used to be the tallest triumphal arch before the one in Mexico City was built in 1938. The Arc de Triomphe was inspired by the Arch of Titus in Rome and it honors the fighters and victims of the French Revolutionary and the Napoleonic Wars.\nThe Arch was inaugurated in 1836 and is located right in the center of Place Charles de Gaulle, previously known as Place de l\u2019\u00c9toile. It is beautifully decorated in Neoclassical style with sculptures and reliefs representing important moments of the French Revolution and of the Napoleonic era. The pillars also hold engraved the names of the military leaders of the French Revolution and Empire, with the names of the ones who died underlined.\nOne of the things that I look forward to doing on my next trip to Paris is going on top of the Arch for a nice view of Paris.\nSome more random thoughts and places\u2026\nIn between all the places, monuments and museums I also got the chance to walk by some other well-known places and buildings that I didn\u2019t get the chance to see from the inside or to enjoy much due to the really bad weather that I had in the last days of my trip, when it was either raining, snowing or simply freezing cold.\nI imagine that with proper weather a walk along the Seine must be really beautiful whereas I got the chance to walk against the snowstorm all the way from the Eiffel tower to Saint Germain, all while not even being able to see properly because the snow was going in my eyes and sticking to my eyelashes. Not exactly what I had in mind when picturing myself going for a promenade along the Seine.\nThe Galerie Lafayette was my refuge from the cold one morning. My favorite section is the one with the food, with colorful eclairs and mountains of macaroons, sophisticated and decorated pastry and lots of chocolate. There are many across the city but I went to the one close to the Op\u00e9ra.\nPastry shop in Galerie Lafayette\nThe Paris Op\u00e9ra is another one of the places that I wish I could have enjoyed, specifically the Palais Garnier, located in Place de l\u2019Op\u00e9ra, that is open to visitors. The building looks magnificent from the outside and is considered one of the symbols of Paris, along with the Notre Dame, the Louvre and the Sacr\u00e9 Coeur.\nOf course, another mandatory stop is the Moulin Rouge, the famous Parisian cabaret where the can-can dance was born. The cabaret is located in the neighborhood of Pigalle, right at the foot of the Montmartre hill. I only went by it during my last day but as many other places, it\u2019s on my to-do list to go see a can-can dance show there.\nFinally, during one cold afternoon, while waiting for dinner time, I went to see the Panth\u00e9on, situated in the Latin quarter. Again, as for the Arc de Triomphe, the inspiration came from the Pantheon in Rome, with the dome and the columns on the fa\u00e7ade. The Panth\u00e9on was originally built as a church but it then became a mausoleum, holding the remains of distinguished French citizens.\nMy conclusion at the end of almost one week in Paris is that it\u2019s a city to live in for a while to be able to experience all it has to offer. It\u2019s a city full of life, of art and breathtaking views. It definitely reached my expectations and made me want to go back.\nI was impressed by the architecture, conquered by the little alleys with corner street caf\u00e9s and amazed by the artistic patrimony. I didn\u2019t manage to take a day tour to Versailles or Giverny, check the Mus\u00e9e Marmottan or the Centre Pompidou or properly enjoy a walk along the Seine. In the six days I\u2019ve been there Paris gave me a lot but left me with even more unexplored places and many reasons to go back.\nLast but not least\u2026 these ducks on the river bank are too cute not to share!\nDucks enjoying the view of Pont Alexandre III\nPosted on 18 October 2018 14 November 2018 Categories travelTags eiffel, france, lowcost, montmartre, museums, paris, travel, tripLeave a comment on Discovering Paris\nMy first traveling article got published \u2013 Rome sweet home\nIf you\u2019ve ever been to Rome and fell in love with it, if you were there but for some reason you were kind of disappointed, if you\u2019ve lived there for half a lifetime and you think there are still new things you can discover, if you plan on going there anytime soon or have dreamt of visiting the Eternal City one day in your life, no matter in which category you fit, take 5 minutes and go check my article (if you wish), you might find a few spots you didn\u2019t know about or just take a walk down memory lane: A walk on Rome\u2019s Aventine Hill\nPosted on 29 December 2017 1 January 2018 Categories travelTags article, italy, publishing, rome, travel, trips, wander, writingLeave a comment on My first traveling article got published \u2013 Rome sweet home\nPosted on 27 December 2017 Categories travelTags goals, inspiration, life, lifestyle, passion, travel, wanderLeave a comment on Do you feel the passion?\nThat\u2019s something many people wrote about, right? We\u2019ve all read articles about the importance of traveling, about the benefits, how it makes you grow and widen your perspective about the world.\nWhat I want to write about is what traveling means to me, why I keep traveling whenever I get the chance and how it constantly affects my life. Maybe some of these things will resonate with you.\nMany of the people I know keep telling me I\u2019m always wandering, changing cities and countries, always on the move, never being able to just stay still in one place for too long. And usually they start with that same sentence: \u201cLucky you that you get to travel\u2026\u201d with a subtitle that seems to say \u201cbecause you can afford to do this\u2026\u201d Afford it? As in having the time and money? Oh no, if I could really afford traveling I would be doing it full time. Unfortunately, I haven\u2019t reached that freedom yet. But I\u2019m working on it.\nA lot of people seem to think that to travel you mainly need two things: time and money. Those two things all human beings seem to complain about never having enough. The truth is I have exactly the same amount of time that all of you have and probably less money than many of you. So here is the shocking truth: it\u2019s not the amount of money or time that allows me to travel and wander around. It\u2019s the hunger. Steve Jobs said it right. \u201cBe hungry, be foolish!\u201d Well, I am.\nI\u2019m hungry for new experiences, new sights, new places and views and people; food and cultures, streets and rivers, bridges, mountains, oceans, and fields. I\u2019m hungry to take it all in, to experience new things, to fill my eyes with new sights, my ears with new music and my lungs with new, fresh air. To open myself to new perspectives, to change my mind about beliefs I used to have, to throw myself at whatever life puts in front of me, to make mistakes; to meet people that have the power to change my life, people that will hurt me and people that will be a blessing; people that will be a part of my life for a few hours and people that will be in my life forever, be it next to me or in some far distance country; to get lost and discover places I would never have laid eyes upon otherwise; to miss trains and buses or run as fast as I can to catch one; to fall in love with someone new and to learn how to love myself a little more; to create memories, to have a story to tell \u2013 an embarrassing one, a funny one, a crazy one; to be able to say \u201cI\u2019ve been there too\u201d and \u201cI saw that as well and it was amazing\u201d.\nI do all this so that one day if I\u2019ll ever get to be old and unable to do this anymore, I\u2019ll still have these memories to feed on. And I\u2019ll be able to read what I wrote, look at the pictures I took and go back there because I\u2019ve already been there once before.\nSo my point is, if you\u2019re afraid of finding yourself in a place where you don\u2019t know the language, of being alone, with nobody there you can rely on other than yourself and the thousands of people around you that you don\u2019t know yet; if you worry about starting anew or just getting lost in a new city, about not knowing which train to catch or how to ask for directions because your phone is dead; if you\u2019re afraid of freezing your ass out because you were stupid enough to travel to a cold country without proper winter clothes or of finding yourself at nighttime in the middle of a forest in Australia, not being able to find your way out, with no light and no phone and spiders hanging from the trees (yes this happened to me); to sum it up, if you\u2019re afraid of the unknown, don\u2019t go. Stay there, at home, where it\u2019s cozy and warm and familiar; where you already know it all, where the biggest unknown is what to cook for dinner or where to go out with your friends. Don\u2019t go anywhere, it\u2019s not for you.\nBut if in spite of all this, the idea of learning something new, of meeting new people, seeing the sunrise from a different angle or finding yourself in the middle of the desert with thousand of stars shining bright above you, of walking down a street and finding yourself amazed at a new view, of falling in love with every little thing, every day of your life, if all this feeds your soul and fills your heart with joy and puts a big stupid smile on your lips, then don\u2019t wait, don\u2019t hesitate. Make some time and find the money. Those are just means, they\u2019re not an end.\nWe\u2019re lucky enough to live in an era where we have low-cost flights and cheap accommodation and the world within reach. And you don\u2019t have to necessarily fly to the other side of the world. Amazing new things could be just a train or bus ride or a couple hours flight away.\nBottom line, I do all this to create memories worth remembering, to feed my soul, my heart and my mind. I do it because there\u2019s nothing that makes me feel more alive than getting off a train or a bus, a whole new place to discover in front of me. I do it because I want to be constantly amazed, and the most amazing sights are the ones I don\u2019t expect and I\u2019ve never seen before. I do it because I cannot find one single reason not to.\nPosted on 19 November 2017 19 November 2017 Categories travelTags discover, travel, wandelust, wander3 Comments on Why travel?\nPosted on 19 November 2017 Categories Senza categoriaLeave a comment on Wanderlust gene",

We hope that the masterminds of these crimes will be identified and punished as they deserve. We express our condolences to the families and friends of the victims and wish a speedy recovery to the injured.\nWhat is happening once again confirms the futility of using the military approach to resolve the situation in Afghanistan and the need to rally the counterterrorism efforts of the entire international community. Russia will continue its uncompromising fight against terrorism in all its manifestations. We reaffirm our readiness for cooperation to help build up the capacity of the Afghan National Security Forces, and to curb the growth of international terrorism in that country.\nWe call upon the Afghan authorities and the Afghan armed opposition to start the national dialogue as soon as possible aimed at establishing peace and security in Afghanistan.",

        "raw_content": "The recent \u201cArab Spring\u201d has seen sweeping political changes across the Middle East, with governments toppled and democratic movements gaining more and more momentum. This revolution has not been without bloodshed however, as corrupt dictators and governments struggle to retain their grip on power.\nBahrain was one such country, where protestors demanding greater political, social, and economic rights were brutally suppressed by the ruling monarchy. At least 30 people were killed, and hundreds were wounded.\nAcross the world, the condemnation was unanimous as governments denounced the violent crackdown, which included the use of live ammunition and the alleged torture of detained protestors. More recently, Bahrain has been back in the news after a special security court sentenced 20 doctors and nurses who treated wounded protesters to jail sentences ranging up to 15 years. They were charged, implausibly enough, with stealing medicine and occupying a medical complex for \u201cpolitical purposes.\u201d\nThose decisions led to new rounds of criticism from the international community, including appeals to U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon for an investigation into the cases and related claims of abuse while in custody. And yet, in a stunning move just this past week, the United States announced new plans to sell $53 million worth of military equipment to Bahrain. This is in addition to $200 million that was approved by the US State Department in 2010.\nThe new purchases comprise a range of weapons and equipment, including 44 armoured Humvees. These are precisely the types of vehicles that were eventually brought into Bahrain by Saudi Arabia, who sent 1000 troops there in March after the tiny Gulf state asked for their help in quelling the unrest.\nIt\u2019s funny how things can change over just a few months. In June, the Obama Administration denounced Bahrain\u2019s actions, albeit half-heartedly, to the United Nations Human Rights Council, adding them to a list of human rights\u2019 offenders that also included Iran, Sudan, Burma and Gaddafi\u2019s former government in Libya.\nMeanwhile, in a mind-boggling recent press release trumpeting the proposed sale, the US State Department called Bahrain an important ally that \u201chas been, and continues to be, an important force for political stability and economic progress in the Middle East.\u201d\nOf course, this hypocrisy may not come as a surprise to followers of international politics. The United States are by far the largest exporter of weapons in the world, with some $8.6 billion in sales in 2010. Other recipients of American arms include many of the countries facing profound impacts from the Arab Spring, including Yemen, Saudi Arabia and the former dictatorship in Egypt (who bought over $385 million in arms from the United States between 2009 and 2010).\nWhat we have here is yet another example of decisions being made that display a woeful ignorance to the detrimental impact on humanity. Without even delving into the broader issue of the ongoing propagation of arms around the world, providing arms to the Bahraini regime, that has so clearly committed human rights violations, sets another negative precedent in the international community.\nDespite their commitment to peace and democracy, time and time again the United States has shown that their willingness to stand up for democratic principles only goes so far as their wallets will allow. This short-sighted behaviour creates a situation where countries like Bahrain can get away with stifling progress for the good of humanity, without fear of serious consequences. There is no broader wisdom in making decisions like this, only a wilful ignorance of the long-term damage to humanity.\n(Original image by GOOD and Column Five)\nTags: arab spring arms deals Bahrain Burma dictators Gaddafi Humvees Iran movements revolution Sudan UN security council US arms US state department",

        "raw_content": "\"I am the Ghost that haunts the Bauhaus...\"\nXanti Schawinsky, approx. 1924\nThe rediscovered oeuvre of first generation Bauhaus artist Xanti Schawinsky offers to the contemporary art world a genuine reservoir of aesthetic memory of the 20th century avant-garde. Schawinsky\u2019s highly original oeuvre covers a whole domain of genres and media that is very characteristic for the interdisciplinary approach of the Bauhaus school: his prolific practice spans from paintings to drawings, from experimental photography to stage design, from jazz music and complex theater work to exhibition design, commercial graphic and product design.\nSchawinsky was one of the most protean characters at the Bauhaus. He initiated and inspired many activities at the Bauhaus with a verve that revealed him as a true performer, a modernist dandy and a Bauhaus protagonist par excellence. Schawinsky\u2019s work communicates today still across generations and his artistic vision opens up a direct dialogue with a contemporary aesthetic sensibility.\nLaszlo Moholy-Nagy, Xanti Schawinsky in Ascona, Sul Ponte Maggia, 1933\nDue to limited accessibility to the oeuvre in the past two decades, the last retrospective of Xanti Schawinsky took place in 1986 at the Bauhaus Archive in Berlin. In 2010-11 a selection of his 1940s drawings and paintings were exhibited in New York and London.\nSince 2012 a majority of the still existing ouevre returned to the family of the artist. The newly founded Estate of Xanti Schawinsky represents all phases of the artist\u2018s practice from the 1920s - 1970s as well as an extensive archive vividly documenting the Bauhaus years and beyond in the form of correspondence and manuscripts. The Estate and curator Anke Kempkes of BROADWAY 1602 aims to give a new focus on reintroducing Xanti Schawinsky\u2019s work to an international contemporary audience in collaboration with upcoming institutional exhibitions.\nBorn in 1904 in Switzerland, to a Jewish family of Polish decent, Alexander \u201cXanti\u201d Schawinsky worked for three years in Theodor Merrill\u2019s Cologne architecture office before enrolling at the Bauhaus in 1924 where he studied with Walter Gropius, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Josef Albers, Oskar Schlemmer and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy. Schawinsky had a significant presence at the Bauhaus in Weimar and Dessau. He was particularly active in the theater department and strongly inspired by Schlemmer, whose position as teacher he took on and developed further. Photos from the early years of the Bauhaus show Schawinsky as a dynamic personality in many of its experimental extra-curricular activities. Among them was the influential Bauhaus Jazz Band where Schawinsky introduced his Step Dance versus Step Machine style of mechanical music and dance to pounding rhythms coupled with dramatic lighting effects and performance elements.\nStepdaenzer versus Step-Machine, 1926\nCollage with Bauhaus Jazz Band, approx.1938\nLux T. Feininger, Xanti Schawinsky in Bauhaus Musical Group, 1928\nTheater became the very core of Schawinsky\u2019s aesthetic universe throughout his life. Schawinsky\u2019s works of the early Bauhaus years are paintings, sketches and photographs illustrating his innovative theater plays, such as Circus, Olga Olga, Tiller Girls and Feminine Repetitionen. Some photographs show the artist as performer in fantastic costumes. In his independent paintings Fliessende Architekturen (Floating Architectures) aspects of his stage designs became independent agents of the composition.\nXanti Schawinsky in his play Olga Olga, 1926\n3 Figuren, 1926\nDie beiden Veroneser, Raeuberballet, 1925\nKlassische Architektur 2, 1927\nAt the Bauhaus Schawinsky began developing his ground-breaking concept of Spectodrama. Spectodrama represented an early idea of total theater where all aspects of the stage become independent agents. Schawinsky continued the work on Spectodrama at the Black Mountain College in the United States after his immigration, and he revisited this work in the 1960s and 70s in Europe. The original concepts and scripts are located in the archive of the Estate of Xanti Schawinsky in Zurich, as well as an extended body of work of stage photographs and sketches.\nStage Studies, Spectodrama, approx. 1938\nSchawinsky\u2019s multifaceted role at the Bauhaus was documented in the original 1938 Bauhaus exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, organized with the help of Herbert Bayer, fellow Bauhaus student and teacher, and Walter Gropius, founder and director of the famed 20th century school. This pivotal show of MoMA\u2019s early days included a prominent group of Schawinsky\u2019s theater and architecture paintings, his experimental photography, innovative graphic designs, ultra modern costume, set and exhibition designs, and his avant-garde theater and music work.\nDuring one\u2018s 20\u2019s, most people build foundation skills, beliefs, and a firm positive sense of identity from their experience with teachers and mentors in a relatively secure environment. While having the privilege to learn many technical skills in an exceptional avant-garde environment, Schawinsky also observed and experienced anxiety and persecution. He saw his Bauhaus undergo political pressure and ouster from the very cities that hosted it, saw the leaders he admired forced to leave, and the school itself compelled to close. He had seen the school, in an effort to survive, shift emphasis from handicraft, Expressionism, and the \u201cthe spiritual in art\u201d to partner with industry, design for mass production, and embrace the machine aesthetic. As a Swiss-Polish \u201cforeigner\u201d and a Jew, the rise of Fascism was a perilous time. What Schawinsky learned in the years between the two World Wars was that survival was an anxious process of constantly changing locations and shifting creative styles and identities.\nSpectrum Color Head, 1935\nWhen the Bauhaus closed in 1933 Schawinsky first went to Italy. In Milan he worked for the Studio Boggeri, the newly founded state-of-the art advertising studio. He designed outstanding poster and product designs for Motta, Illy coffee and Cinzano. He also co-designed for Olivetti the typewriter Studio 42. Schawinsky\u2018s posters and products were to become classics of commercial design of the 1930s. Philipp Johnson gave his collection of Schawinsky posters in later years as gift to the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In Nothern Italy the artist met Marinetti and Giorgio de Chirico, whose work co-influenced the growing Surrealist tendency in Schawinsky\u2018s work of the 1940s. During this time Schawinsky remained in close exchange with Walter Gropius. He actively promoted the Bauhaus ideas and planned to bring out a book about the Bauhaus years, which remained unpublished. In 1935 the political situation in Italy forced him to leave once more. Schawinsky went to London where he married Irene von Debschitz, the daughter of the director of the Debschitz-School in Munich, an art school having anticipated some of the Bauhaus ideas.\nSpectrodrama, Collages, approx. 1938\nIn 1936, Hans Albers secured Schawinsky and his wife safe passage to the United States to teach at the later legendary Black Mountain College in North Carolina. In charge of theater arts, Schawinsky expanded his ideas for experimental theater to a multi-media \u201ctotal experience.\u201d His production of Spectrodrama and Danse Macabre at the Black Mountain College demonstrated these ideas and importantly laid the foundations for the work of John Cage and others at the College in the post-war time. It can clearly be argued that Schawinsky brought the radical and avant-garde Bauhaus theater to the United States, a relation that has been receiving special attention recently. Irene Schawinsky also contributed to the College. She collaborated with Anni Albers on clothes designs and she create paper sculptures which became iconic props of Xanti\u2019s Spectodrama plays (in the following years Irene used these paper sculptures for shop window designs in New York).\nIn 1938 political disagreements among the faculty led him to move once more; this time to New York City. Upon his arrival he collaborated on prize winning pavilion designs for the 1939 World\u2019s Fair with colleagues Walter Gropius, Herbert Bayer, and Marcel Breuer.\nIn 1939 his first son Ben was born.\nWar Face and Child, 1942\nHousing Week, 1944\nIn New York among the tight-knit ex-patriot cultural community centered on the activities of gallerist Julien Levy, Schawinsky for the first time experienced again a sense of safety and integration. His status as a new-comer afforded him unique and new perspectives on his life and the arts. He had the freedom and burden of confronting his own identity and purpose in \u201clife during wartime.\u201d At the same historical moment that the French philosopher Gabriel Marcel was coining the term \u201cexistentialism,\u201d and Jean-Paul Sartre began to lecture and write about it, Schawinsky began to compose his own existential works with images which speak as clearly as words.\nFaces of War, 1942\nFrom work Schawinsky did for the \u201cVisual Problems Unit\u201d of the Army Air Corps designing anti-aircraft targeting patterns for artillery manuals, he conceived his 1940 series The Faces of War. In these imaginative tempera and graphite drawings Schawinsky expressed a fundamental despair that the time of the utopian man-machine equations of the Bauhaus years had turned for the machines of mass destruction in the dystopian theaters of war. He made each drawing a camouflage-painted robotic \u201egolem\u201c \u2013 a man-machine \u2013 that could be interpreted as both a threatening enemy or a powerful avenger.\nIn his series of photo collages, Theme and Variation on a Face: Walter Gropius, he reflected upon his creative father/mentor and friend, presenting the architect in both positive and negative versions integrated with linear forms. He would use architectural forms to evoke culture and images of trees to allude to nature and history. In the photo collages The Variations on a Face Series (Woman) he confronted the enigmatic disembodied face of a woman, floating in a variety of spaces \u2013 landscape, night sky and topographically diagrammed space. However, Schawinsky extended his meditations using the portrait head motif even further.\nTheme and Variation on a Face: Walter Gropius, 1943\nMountain View, 1944\nKurt Schwitters said that during the war years artists had to rebuild themselves from scraps and Schawinsky, possibly inspired by Czech poet V\u00edt\u011bzslav Nezval\u2019s 1937 poem The Man Who Composes His Own Portrait With Objects, did so in his 1940s character Head Series of graphite drawings of potential identities thematically pieced together from elements of nature, culture, and trade in the world around him. In a style related to the \u201cparanoiac-critical\u201d imaging methods of Salvador Dali, Schawinsky worked through his own need to make himself one with his environment by literally re-making himself from his environment.\nHead Drawings, 1940s\nIn these vivid eerie scenes of the existential aftermath of the war, Schawinsky gives form to his anxiety and brings to bear his visionary experience as a synthesizer of the man/machine of the Bauhaus aesthetic into multi-media performance \u2013 an aesthetic picked up emblematically by Kraftwerk and other musician/artists in the 1970s as an expression of the climactic phase of the cold war.\nUntitled (Futuristic Architecture), 1945\nSchawinsky\u2019s powerful work from the 1940\u2019s particularly draws attention to not yet explored dimensions of the afterlife of Bauhaus ideals subject to the pressures of war and forced immigration. It is an aesthetic with a more existentialist and dystopian face, distinct from the positivism and bravura of the Bauhaus architects\u2019 further achievements in the U.S. after the decline of the influential school in Europe.\nIn the early 1940s Xanti Schawinsky developed close relations with American and emmigrated artists who had gained prominence in the pre-war milieu of modern art. The legend goes that Schawinsky met Marcel Duchamp in the mornings to play chess on Washington Square in direct proximity to Schawinsky\u2018s new New York City home. These meetings might have given the background for Schawinsky\u2019s participation in Julian Levy\u2019s show The Imaginary of Chess held in 1944-45. Levy invited artists from the Surrealist circles of his gallery to create chess related art work and to play chess throughout the show. Schawinsky contributed an impressive and fantastic plexi-glass sculpture based on the idea of a chess table exploding or going mad. This work was reconstructed for an exhibition at The Noguchi Museum in New York in 2005, curated by Larry List, revisiting Julien Levy\u2018s visionary chess show which had drawn heavily on wartime metaphors.\nSchawinsky focused his practice in the following years on painting, drawing, experimental photography and commcercial graphic design. He experimented with glass negatives for a series of collaged photograms, the motifs often based on the ultra-urban skyline of Manhattan.\nFrom 1943-46 he taught at the City College in New York. In 1946 he started working on a book on Walter Gropius. The manuscript of Schawinsky\u2018s writing survived, but the book was not published due to disagreements between Gropius and Schawinsky in the course of planning.\nArchitectural Box Graphic 1 + 2, Teaching Study 1950s\nFrom 1950-54 Schawinsky taught at various departments at New York University. During the same years he focused more than ever before on his painting practice. He began to create a body of abstract paintings in which he revisited from experiments of the 1940s, the Eclipses. The abstraction of these works is intimate, dark and impenetrable. It resonates interestingly with a contemporary trend to idiosyncratic abstraction. The Estate of Xanti Schawinsky holds an expressive group of paintings of this series in various prominent dimensions, form experimentations and color shadings.\nIn 1953 Schawinsky received his first solo show featuring 35 paintings, graphic design and sculptural works at the Hugo Gallery in New York. In 1956 he created his first Dance-Painting, a large scale canvas on which he imprinted marks of his shoes from dancing on the surface forming chance operating patterns. We can assume today that this experiment reflected on the performance based painting interventions by Jackson Pollock.\nSoon after Schawinsky revisited his theater work of the Bauhaus and Black Mountain College time. In 1957 he writes a second Spectodrama Mondo Nova which thematises the conflict of the individuum with an all consuming environment. Yet, not a worded script but a dramatic staging of visual and acoustic effects make the composition of the play. Schawinsky\u2018s last big scale project in the United States are his Track Paintings. He prepared giant canvases with paint and drove with his sports car over the surfaces, creating another series of interventionist paintings.\nWhile spending increasingly more time in Europe, particularly in Switzerland and Nothern Italy, Schawinsky gets commissioned by the Stadt Theater Basel, his former home town, to create the set and costum design for a Sergej Prokofjew ballet. The play was to become an exuberant spectacle, a synthesis of Schawinsky\u2019s early theater ideas and creatures forming a fantastical chorus against the giant backdrop of his later astract painting surfaces. After the success of Schawinsky\u2019s collaboration with the Basel theater, plans were made to bring hisSpectodrama Mondo Nova on stage, but the project was never realized.\nIn 1963 he married his second wife Gisela Hatzky in New York.\nIn 1964 a first part of his Bauhaus memoirs is published inmetamorphosis bauhaus.\nIn 1966 Schawinsky builds a studio house at Laggio Maggiore. He designs the architecture and interiors himself in the style of the Bauhaus. Marcel Breuer overlooked the blue prints and certified the building as a classic Bauhaus architecture.\nIn 1967 Schawinsky began his last significant abstract painting cycle of the Sphaeren. Overlapping compositions of circles and color fields are seen through several layers of gauze affixed to the front of the canvas, a technique which creates intriguing optical effects. As in his 1950s responses to Abstract Expressionism, Schawinsky reacts here in a highly innovative way to a new upcoming genre of Op Art.\nIn 1968 Schawinsky is represented with numerous works in various disciplines in the Stuttgart Bauhaus retrospective exhibition 50 Years of Bauhaus which tours world wide. In the following year he begins to write his autobiography which remained unfinished, but covers his youth, the Bauhaus years and the beginning 1930s. Writings about The Physical in Painting and Spectodrama follow.\nIn 1972 his second son Daniel was born.\nIn 1975 a comprehensive solo exhibition of Schawinsky\u2019s work is held in the communal Galleria d\u2019arte moderna in Bolgna, Italy. 150 works are exhibited from all of his work phases. In Bologna Schawinsky collaborates with a group of students on the reconstruction and re-enactment of his theater plays from the Bauhaus and Black Mountain College time.\nXanti Schawinsky died in 1979 in Locarno.\nAnke Kempkes With thanks to Larry List New York 2010-13\nXanti Schawinsky, last portrait with personal inscription, 1979\nVon Morgens bis Mitternacht (From Morning to Midnight),1926",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00b7 Physics \u00b7 General Relativity \u00b7 Special and General Principle of Relativity\nby Rickydavid\nThe basal principle, which was the pivot of all our previous considerations, was the special principle of relativity, i.e. the principle of the physical relativity of all uniform motion. Let as once more analyze its meaning carefully.\nIt was at all times clear that, from the point of view of the idea it conveys to us, every motion must be considered only as a relative motion. Returning to the illustration we have frequently used of the embankment and the railway carriage, we can express the fact of the motion here taking place in the following two forms, both of which are equally justifiable :\n(a) The carriage is in motion relative to the embankment,\n(b) The embankment is in motion relative to the carriage.\nIn (a) the embankment, in (b) the carriage, serves as the body of reference in our statement of the motion taking place. If it is simply a question of detecting or of describing the motion involved, it is in principle immaterial to what reference-body we refer the motion. As already mentioned, this is self-evident, but it must not be confused with the much more comprehensive statement called \u201cthe principle of relativity,\u201d which we have taken as the basis of our investigations.\nThe principle we have made use of not only maintains that we may equally well choose the carriage or the embankment as our reference-body for the description of any event (for this, too, is self-evident). Our principle rather asserts what follows : If we formulate the general laws of nature as they are obtained from experience, by making use of\n(a) the embankment as reference-body,\n(b) the railway carriage as reference-body,\nthen these general laws of nature (e.g. the laws of mechanics or the law of the propagation of light in vacuo) have exactly the same form in both cases. This can also be expressed as follows : For the physical description of natural processes, neither of the reference bodies K, K1 is unique (lit. \u201d specially marked out \u201c) as compared with the other. Unlike the first, this latter statement need not of necessity hold a priori; it is not contained in the conceptions of \u201d motion\u201d and \u201d reference-body \u201d and derivable from them; only experience can decide as to its correctness or incorrectness.\nUp to the present, however, we have by no means maintained the equivalence of all bodies of reference K in connection with the formulation of natural laws. Our course was more on the following lines. In the first place, we started out from the assumption that there exists a reference-body K, whose condition of motion is such that the Galilean law holds with respect to it : A particle left to itself and sufficiently far removed from all other particles moves uniformly in a straight line. With reference to K (Galilean reference-body) the laws of nature were to be as simple as possible. But in addition to K, all bodies of reference K1 should be given preference in this sense, and they should be exactly equivalent to K for the formulation of natural laws, provided that they are in a state of uniform rectilinear and non-rotary motion with respect to K ; all these bodies of reference are to be regarded as Galilean reference-bodies. The validity of the principle of relativity was assumed only for these reference-bodies, but not for others (e.g. those possessing motion of a different kind). In this sense we speak of the special principle of relativity, or special theory of relativity.\nIn contrast to this we wish to understand by the \u201cgeneral principle of relativity\u201d the following statement : All bodies of reference K, K1, etc., are equivalent for the description of natural phenomena (formulation of the general laws of nature), whatever may be their state of motion. But before proceeding farther, it ought to be pointed out that this formulation must be replaced later by a more abstract one, for reasons which will become evident at a later stage.\nSince the introduction of the special principle of relativity has been justified, every intellect which strives after generalization must feel the temptation to venture the step towards the general principle of relativity. But a simple and apparently quite reliable consideration seems to suggest that, for the present at any rate, there is little hope of success in such an attempt; Let us imagine ourselves transferred to our old friend the railway carriage, which is traveling at a uniform rate. As long as it is moving uniformly, the occupant of the carriage is not sensible of its motion, and it is for this reason that he can without reluctance interpret the facts of the case as indicating that the carriage is at rest, but the embankment in motion. Moreover, according to the special principle of relativity, this interpretation is quite justified also from a physical point of view.\nIf the motion of the carriage is now changed into a non-uniform motion, as for instance by a powerful application of the brakes, then the occupant of the carriage experiences a correspondingly powerful jerk forwards. The retarded motion is manifested in the mechanical behavior of bodies relative to the person in the railway carriage. The mechanical behavior is different from that of the case previously considered, and for this reason it would appear to be impossible that the same mechanical laws hold relatively to the non-uniformly moving carriage, as hold with reference to the carriage when at rest or in uniform motion. At all events it is clear that the Galilean law does not hold with respect to the non-uniformly moving carriage. Because of this, we feel compelled at the present juncture to grant a kind of absolute physical reality to non-uniform motion, in opposition to the general principle of relativity. But in what follows we shall soon see that this conclusion cannot be maintained.\nTo read more, go to http://www.EffortlessPhysicsLessons.com/relativity/\nStephan Bourget, physicist\nEffortless Physics Lessons\nhttp://www.EffortlessPhysicsLessons.com\nPreliminaries \u00b7 the general theory of relativity \u00b7 applications of feneral relativity \u00b7 formal developments \u00b7 cosmology\u2026\nEinstein\u2019s general theory of relativity requires a curved space for the description of the physical world.

Sweet, Jr., National Vice Commandant, Southeast Division\nArchie enlisted in the USMC in April 1964 and reported to USMC Recruit Training Depot, Parris Island, SC. Upon completion of recruit training he was assigned the MOS of 2841, Radio Repairman. Completing advanced training at Camp Geiger in December 1964, he was assigned to electronics and radio repair schools at MCRD San Diego in February 1965. After completion of radio repair schools, he was assigned to 8th Communications Bn., 2nd Marine Division, Camp Lejeune, NC, in November 1965. In August of 1968 he was discharged at the rank of Sgt.\nAfter release from active duty in the USMC in Aug. 1968, Archie worked as a plant electrician for J. P. Stevens, and assistant dye supervisor for Phoenix Manufacturing Co. He was appointed to the South Carolina Highway Patrol in 1970. In December 1992, he honorably retired from the SC Highway Patrol, and in 1993, he opened his office as a Real Estate Appraiser. In 2007, he semi-retired and opened a new part-time business, WHS Courier Service, as a small load specialty interstate courier, which he still operates.\nArchie resides in Lancaster, SC, married to the former Wanda Hilton, and they have five grandchildren by their two daughters. In addition to the Marine Corps League, Archie is a member of the Church of God, member of the Legion of Honor of The Chapel of Four Chaplains, and a member of the South Carolina State Troopers Association.\nMarine Corps League Profile:\nIn 2004, Archie assisted in the formation and chartering of MCL Lancaster County Leathernecks Detachment 1169, serving initially as the Detachment Junior Vice-Commandant and Detachment Quartermaster. In 2006, Archie became the second Detachment 1169 Commandant, serving in that office for five years. Archie served on the Bylaws Committee of the Department of South Carolina and as Department Judge Advocate for two years. He served as SC Department Senior Vice-Commandant for 2 years and in 2010 Archie served four years as the Commandant of the Department of South Carolina. He has served simultaneously in both elected and appointed offices each year since becoming a Marine Corps League member. He received both the Detachment and Department Marine of the Year Medals. From 2007-2012, Archie served as Asst. Sgt. At Arms of the Southeast Division and from 2008-2014, Archie served on the National Bylaws Committee. Archie has served ten years on the Marine Corps League National Convention Credentials Committee including five years as the Vice-Chairman of that Committee. He was appointed Chairman of the Marine Corps League National POW/MIA Committee in 2015. In August of 2015, he was elected Assistant National Vice-Commandant of the Southeast Division and in August 2017, he was elected Southeast Division National Vice Commandant.\nWhy Join The League\nMarines have always been looked up to as leading the assault. Recent violent weather in the South Eastern United States with some 151 tornados hitting the ground has brought the Marines forward once again, in helping their neighbors.\nSouthern states, such as Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia suffered huge losses in both life and property this during the week of April 26th. The latest report is that there are over 341 situations in which people lost their lives. The majority of these occurred in Alabama. Marines are helping in taking action to work with their local disaster relief organizations to search and recovery and support for others doing the same thing, currently. A good example of Marines working to help their neighbors is one individual by the name of Carl Jones in Birmingham, Alabama. After the storms, he immediately mobilized a bunch of his friends and began reaching out to neighborhoods in both Birmingham and Tuscaloosa, Alabama, two of the hardest hit areas in the state. They started by contacting other Marines in the hard hit areas to find out who needed immediate help with their situations. Communications were tough, but Carl found a way to keep in touch with those working out in the field to gather information and pass it along to others who are in a position to help. One person his friends came in contact with had lost literally everything, including his car and his house. There was another person who lost everything, with a pregnant wife about to deliver twins. In these situations and many more, Carl Jones began making arrangements for delivery of goods to help these people out, set up donation focal point for distribution of goods, contact veteran support groups. Support has come from Marines in the state of Alabama, but also from neighboring states and places as far away as California. He has begun co-coordinating support organizations to assist with temporary housing and clothing. Carl Jones is a former two terms Marine Corps League Detachment Commandant in Birmingham, and is effectively using this line of communication through the Department of Alabama Commandant. In turn, National Vice Commandant for the South Eastern Division of the Marine Corps, Dave Gardner, is opening more and more lines of communication to assist those in need in the states hardest hit by this disaster.\nMore information will be forthcoming as received. Please pray for those hardest hit in this major weather event, and keep your ears open for any way the Marines can help in your area.\nMarine Corps League Southeast Division & Preparedness",

        "title": "Simple Telephone Support a Great Relief for Caregivers of Dementia Patients",
        "raw_content": "July 30, 2014 \u2013 Caregivers for dementia patients must deal with enormous stress and many suffer depression. A new study has found, however, that a support program simply by telephone can significantly reduce depression and other problems for informal caregivers, such as family or friends, and is as effective as face-to-face intervention programs.\n\"Those caring for people with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia are often under a great deal of pressure,\" said principal investigator Geoffrey Tremont, Ph.D, of the division of neuropsychology in the department of psychiatry at Rhode Island Hospital.\n\"This pressure and stress can lead to depression in the caregiver, or to negative reactions, or even to behavior problems exhibited by the individual with dementia.\"\nHe continued, \"Many of these caregivers have trouble finding time to take care of themselves, allowing their own physical and mental health issues to fester. By providing these caregivers with the option of a telephone-based support program, we are able to bring the help right to them, rather than requiring the caregivers to take time away from their loved one to attend a support group or other appointment.\"\nSensors Monitor Seniors' Health at Home, Sync Data from Home to Hospital, Call Help\nStreamlined information-sharing is in development now by University of Missouri researchers\nThe study by Rhode Island Hospital researchers is published online in advance of print in the journal Alzheimer's & Dementia.\nThe study concluded that an entirely telephone-based intervention improves caregivers' depressive symptoms and reactions to behavior problems in the care recipient and is comparable with reported results of face-to-face interventions. Caregivers received 16 telephone contacts over 6 months in the program.\nA telephone-based support program is also potentially less expensive than in-person treatment options, and often more convenient for caregivers. While previous studies have shown that caregivers benefit from programs such as in-person support/group therapy sessions, this is the first such study to present data supporting a program that is delivered only by telephone.\n\"The number of people diagnosed with some form of dementia continues to rise,\" Tremont said, \"and with that comes an increased need for caregivers, who often are family members. It's a lot to take on, and a great deal is expected from these caregivers. If we don't help them take care of themselves, in an easy and convenient manner, there could be negative health consequences for the caregiver, and ultimately the individual with dementia.\"\nAccording to the Alzheimer's Association, there are 5 million people in the U.S. with Alzheimer's, and it is the country's sixth leading cause of death. More than 15 million family and friends provide care for those with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, resulting in 17.5 billion hours of unpaid care each year.\nThe study was funded in part by a grant from the National Institute of Nursing Research awarded to Geoffrey Tremont, Ph.D. Tremont's principal affiliation is Rhode Island Hospital, a member hospital of the Lifespan health system in Rhode Island. He also holds an academic appointment at The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.\nOther Lifespan and Brown University researchers involved in the study are Jennifer Davis, Ph.D., Brian Ott, M.D., Kim Bryant, Christine Grover, Duane Bishop, M.D., George D. Papandonatos, Ph.D., Mun Sang Yue, and Pedro Gozalo, Ph.D.; as well as Richard Fortinsky, Ph.D., of the University of Connecticut School of Medicine.\nFounded in 1863, Rhode Island Hospital in Providence, R.I., is a private, not-for-profit hospital and is the principal teaching hospital of The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.

James Murphy, aka LCD Soundsystem, is the second contributor to the label's Nike+ Original Run series - the Crystal Method were the first. LCD Soundsystem's installment is called 45:33 - Nike+ Original Run, and it is a continuous mix of music specially recorded for this project. The title is the actual length of the recording, and it's a pretty cool listen, James Murphy says \"In testing I found that hard, fast, propulsive music was not the best running music for me. Sometimes the best way to keep running is to find the parts of the run that are actually the rests - that while you're still running you're viewing some of the run as soothing and recuperative.\" He mentions loving the time honored concept of one song taking up a whole side of an LP, and how it would be fun to abandon \"making easily digestible lumps of music for albums or radio or whatever.\" The result is typically LCD, a funky mix of electronic and rock elements, with a nice ebb and flow to it. There are some lovely, spacy keyboard bits, some choice horns, and vocals courtesy of Terra Deva as well as James Murphy. I'm not a runner, but this mix sounds like it would work pretty well as the soundtrack to some sort of athletic activity. Or you could just to dance to it. I really dig it's scruffy vibes and shuffling beats. The catch here is that it is a limited run mp3 release, and that you can only get it from the iTunes store for the next six months. It's pure speculation on my part, but it might get some kind of a physical release once that six month period lapses. Here are a couple of excerpts - the titles are rough takes on where they show up in the mix. Now get ready to get your groove on...\nBuy the full track at the iTunes store\nFor the last couple of weeks I've been listening to an advance copy of Leaving The Nest, a new album from Benjy Ferree. Hipster UK indie label Domino Recording Co.'s US branch are set to release the record on November 7th. A bit of bio...\nRaised in an vigorously religious but musical family, Benjy was inspired at an impressionable age by Will Oldham: not to rock, but to act, thanks to young Will's performance in John Sayles' Matewan, a movie based on flesh and blood (The Hatfields of that famous familial squabble, if you must know). After high school, he moved straight to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career, supporting himself in a variety of service industry jobs (including a stint as an au pair during which he crossed paths with David Lynch, but, more like, David Lynch's kids). Frustrated with his experiences there, Benjy returned to The Potomac Basin. While bartending at The Black Cat in DC, he was befriended by Brendan Canty (Fugazi), amongst many others, who encouraged him to focus instead on the songs he'd been writing for his own personal enjoyment. What you have here are the fruits of that encouragement and those life experiences, with a surefooted timelessness in an era of trends being cycled and recycled through at an exhausting speed.\nMy take on the record is simple - it's pretty good. It is scruffy, down home indie rock that is infused with alt.country flavor. Vocally he reminds me of a cross between Jack White, Jeff Tweedy and Marc Bolan. All of their flavors are also present in the music - swampy leftfield blues a la the White Stripes, the experimental, plaintive roots rock of Wilco and the glammy stomp of T.Rex are all here. It is a nice mix of styles and sounds and hooky melodies that have grown on me quite a bit. The Desert has as a lovely fiddled melody and some nice twangy guitar. The title track Leaving the Nest (It's A Long Way Down) kicks off with a bit of George Harrison slide guitar before settling into a swampy groove with a great catchy chorus. Great stuff.\nNew Music Tuesday - John Legend\nI was a big fan of John Legend's 2004 debut Get Lifted. The neo-soulster was a friend of Kanye West, who executive produced the album as well as quite a few of the tracks. It was filled with old school vibes, lovely piano and arrangements that harked back to the '70s soul of Stevie and Smokey and Marvin and Donny. I loved the warm and languid feeling of it all, and was an even bigger fan of his controlled vocals - no histrionics or fitting thirty notes into a riff here. The follow up hits stores today. Called Once Again, I've had a chance to give it one listen today, and my first impressions are good. It picks up where Get Lifted left off, but this time around it seems a bit bigger. Kanye, Will I Am, Raphael Sadiq, Craig Street and the splendidly monikered Devo Springsteen handle the production, with John taking on all the lyrical duties. There is a bit of rock riffing, lots of balladry and a few mid tempo shufflers, two of which are today's offerings. Stereo is rooted in the hip hop rhythms of today, while P.D.A. (We Just Don't Care) is a bit slicker and discofied.\nThe Human League - Love Action (12\" Remix)\nSince it's been all-'80s-all-week I have to end the week with at least one oldie. This is absolutely one of my ten most favorite songs ever.\nGoldfrapp - Fly Me Away (C2 Remix 4)\nCarl Craig takes Moroder's riff for Donna Summer's I Feel Love and applies it to the lovely Miss Goldfrapp for a gently simmering mix.\nTommy Guerrero - Badder Than Bullets\nThis former skate god turned guitar hero has a new LP out on Quannum. Called From The Soil To The Soul, it is his usual blend of low fi hip hop and guitar licks, although this time around it rocks harder. It also features Lyrics Born singing. Good stuff.\nDosh - Um, Circles And Squares\nMartin Dosh is a Minneapolis drummer. He has played for Fog and Lateduster. He has also released several albums and EPs of post rock experimentation. This track is from his brand new Anticon LP The Lost Take. It features some lovely violin and saxophone. Not exactly funky like James Brown, but it still has me grooving.\nDay four of digitized vinyl \"ripped from the '80s\" delivers an electronic twelve inch gem...\nDavid Sylvian is a long time favorite of mine. I was (and still am) a fan of his band Japan, both their early rockist years and the later years when it was all about artful experimentation, tasteful electronics and Eastern fascination. While the band was finding success in the early '80s one of their boosters (and often a contributor to Japan albums) was Ryuichi Sakamoto. A whiz at the keys, he was already known for his work with Yellow Magic Orchestra, and was also building a career as a solo artist. In between their busy recording schedules they found time to collaborate, and a few of their songs got released as singles. The best known is the ambient ballad Forbidden Colours from 1983, which was part of the soundtrack for the film Merry Christmas Mr.Lawrence. The other joint collaboration to get a release was the double A sided single for Bamboo Houses and Bamboo Music from 1982. Bamboo Music is an uptempo vocal track with much Eastern flavor and skittery beats, while Bamboo Houses is largely instrumental, built on a precise, offbeat rhythm track and full of pretty gong-like keyboard sounds and washes of ambient synth. David does sing a bit towards the end, but it's only one verse. I have always really loved the vibe of this tune, from the beats to the melody. A kickin' double A side.\nDay 3 of digitized vinyl \"ripped from the '80s\" and it's a classic little remix...\nU2 are one of those bands that tends to polarize people - you either love 'em or you don't. Me, I love 'em. It goes back to their very first album, 1980's Boy. I was mesmerized by the riffs of it's first single I Will Follow, and a long standing love/hate relationship was born. I say love/hate because there came a time when I decided I didn't like them anymore - right after The Joshua Tree stormed the world with it's anthemic hits. At that point the pomposity seemed to overtake the music. I eventually came back into the fold years later with Achtung Baby, but I digress. In 1983 they were about to really break through - the LP War was on it's way, and it's opening single was New Year's Day. A monster piano riff, those \"Edge-y\" guitars and the vid with the band in the snow all seared itself into the public consciousness. The follow-up was the very post-punk Two Hearts Beat As One. It was available as a limited edition 2x7\", with the second single containing two remixes by the legendary Fran\u00e7ois K. One was a version of New Years Day and the other was Two Hearts Beat As One (Fran\u00e7ois Kevorkian Remix). While they aren't exactly your typical dance floor fodder, these tunes worked pretty well in their stretched out formats. This track in particular has a very funky bass riff, and I like the punched up rhythms and the tautness of the arrangement. It's funny, but this production sounds very \"now\", what with The DFA and some of the other second generation of post punkers adopting a very similar modus operandi.\nDay two of digitized vinyl \"ripped from the '80s\" brings this little oddity from 1983...\nStraight outta Norwich in 1980, The Farmer's Boys released a couple of well reviewed singles before getting noticed by and signed by EMI. They reissued earlier single More Than A Dream, then they hooked the band up with a big time producer, Peter Collins. The result was their stab at the big time, Muck It Out. It's a perky little indie pop tune with some gloriously dramatic falsetto vocals about love gone wrong. I love the funky bass, and there are also some nice '80s keyboard sounds and drum machines. It sounded like a hit to my ears at the time, but radio support wasn't there and the single failed to crack the top 40.\nFrom the Farmer's Boys fansite - This was the first time we\u2019d used a real producer and it was a bit strange at first, and a bit strange when Collins tried to rewrite the song! Eventually we settled halfway between what he wanted and what we wanted, and so began the gradual demise in our working relationship \u2013 he eventually stopped working with us to produce Nik Kershaw \u2013 say no more! The single was released in March on 7\u201d, 12\u201d and silly shaped picture disc, reached number 48 in the charts and sold about 30,000 copies.\nThe band carried on for a few years with similarily middling results until finally calling it quits in 1985.\nI had a couple of hours to myself yesterday so I took the time to digitize some crusty vinyl - this week's tunes are all \"ripped from the '80s.\"\nWire essentially disappeared after releasing 154 in 1979. Seven years later they returned with an EP called Snakedrill. The music on offer was a sharp departure from the old band's economy, with no sixty second songs of thick guitar riffing to be found here. The \"new\" Wire were enamored of all things electronic. Where it had been used as embellishment on early records, drum machines and synths were pushed to the forefront. Of course there were still guitars, they just didn't rock quite like they used to. They followed this up in 1987 with a long awaited new album, The Ideal Copy. Musically it continued the themes of the Snakedrill single, with the emphasis on electronics instead of the rock. Today's offerings are two of the most accessible tunes on it, with Ahead being a perfectly good New Order clone, and Ambitious being a teeth-clenchingly taut, jerky pop song. I absolutely love the vocals on this track - so edgy sounding. I should probably get myself a copy of this on CD...\nIt's all about hip hop and r'n'b flavor today...\nLupe Fiasco - What I Do\nI only just got around to listening to Food And Liquor, the debut LP from this Chi-town rapper, and it has floored me. The music is sweet and the rhymes are fresh. It's a whole new perspective on the rap game, from the skater rap of Kick, Push to the dizzying wordplay of What I Do. Fantastic record!\nKelis - Trilogy\nA few weeks ago I posted about the latest Kelis record and I referred to it as a bit \"up and down\" for me. Well, I've come around and am a full blown fan of the album. From it's sassy lewdness to the genuine love songs to the few slightly rock-ist tunes in between, it's all good. This record deserves to be heard, and everyone I've played it for has fallen in love with it.\nQ-Tip - Breathe & Stop\nEverybody loves Q-Tip. The Abstract brings unique flavor and tone to any record, and I've been listening to his 1999 solo LP Amplified this week and wondering why there haven't been more of these...\nIt's hard to believe it, but it has been ten years since I first discovered Daft Punk. Me and a couple of buddies would get together on Saturday afternoons, imbibing beers and other things, and spin music. We'd take turns at the \"wheels of steel\", playing short 3 or 4 record sets. It was eclectic, both style (anything goes as long as there are fat beats) and skillz wise - early on our beat matching left much to be desired. The first time one of us played the Daft Punk single Musique (Version Longue) we were all mesmerized. It was repetitive and basic but damn it was funky. Built over hoppin' house beats, they used a few well placed samples, some synth squiggle and a bunch of filters working overtime. Top it off with the vocal chant of \"musique!\" and a dance floor favorite was established. They followed this up with their debut LP and it's big hit singles, but that's another day's post.\nFile Under Random\nI was never much of a Dinosaur Jr. fan. I can say the same thing about Sebadoh. Lou Barlow was in both of those bands, and he also records as The Folk Implosion. I am a fan of the Folk Implosion. 1999's One Part Lullaby is my fave of theirs, a fantastic album of well orchestrated, catchy indie rock songs. There are lots of nice production touches, from the loops and electronics to the dulcimers and glockenspiels. I particularly enjoy Serge, which is an instrumental tribute to the grand old man of French rock, Monsieur Gainsbourg. It samples the most excellent rhythms from Serge's own Requiem Pour Un Con, and builds into a nice and atmospheric rocker with plenty of Gallic flavor.\nThe Cardigans have a new record out. Actually, it's an old record - out in October of 2005 in Europe - that has only just made it out here in the US. It's been a while since I had heard one of their records, having passed on their last record, 2003's Long Gone Before Daylight. So far I'm feeling a bit \"meh\" about it. It has some prettiness, it is well played and well produced, and it is free of the cheese of their early years. That might be it's downfall, because I always enjoyed the kind of cheese they offered. Instead of cocktails and a bit of disco syncopation we have very adult, indie rock in the vein of someone like Aimee Mann. Nice, but will it keep me coming back? I don't know. That having been said, I do really like In The Round, and it has everything to do with the guitar riffs on it. The two dualing riffs at the beginning suck me in, and the ultra-cool vibe keeps my attention. Very nice.\nFunky Friday's Big Twelve Inches\nToday brings a four pack of twelve inchers - a couple of tasty new school tracks and a couple of disco-licious old school hits to get your weekend off to a funky start.\nChromeo - Destination Overdrive (The DFA Remix)\nFrom the just released DFA Remixes Chapter Two, this track sees the duo scruff up a tune by anothe duo, Canadian '80s fans Chromeo.\nKlaxons - Gravity's Rainbow (Van She Remix)\nFrom the forthcoming EP Xan Valleys, this Van She remix has the indie rock-ravers sounding like Cut Copy in Daft Punk mode.\nThis tune is just pure disco bliss. It's got a lovely beat, some seriously funkin' bass and that gorgeous melody, those squiggly synths and swelling strings and the British trio's glorious harmonies make this one a real winner for me.\nEvelyn \"Champagne\" King - I'm In Love\nPure '80s electro-funk at it's best. Written and produced by Kashif, it bears all of his trademark sounds - synth bass, loads of synths, tight syncopation and lots of piano. Delicious.\nAfter yesterday's piece on the Pretenders' reissues you had to know there would be a second helping, and today I am happy to oblige. Their second album, 1981's Pretenders II, came out hot on the heels of the debut. It was a further refinement of their sound, and it saw them become chart regulars with the fabulous hit songs Message Of Love and Talk Of The Town. It also has some of Chrissie's hottest rocker goddess moments - The Adultress and Bad Boys Get Spanked come to mind! Then there is the stone cold classic ballad I Go To Sleep, which send shivers down my spine every time I hear her cracking vocals. Today's choices are all from the bonus disc, and are all previously unreleased. Talk Of The Town (Demo) is a slightly softer versioon that almost has a disco feel in the drums and rhythm guitar parts. I Go To Sleep (Guitar Version - Outtake) has a much harder electric guitar playing the glorious melody line - I can see why they went with the version without it, but it's interesting to hear nonetheless. Still as gorgeous as ever tho'. Pack It Up (Radio Mix - Outtake) is essentially an instrumental version of this hard rocking tune - all of the riffs and lots of radio interference. How tight is this shit?\nThis week one of my music collector super wishes came true - Rhino Records remastered and expanded the first two Pretenders albums. Pretenders and Pretenders II are a couple of absolute rock and roll classic in my book, and these reissues have been a long time coming. Both of then are now 2CD sets - disc one is the original record, disc two is rarities, demos and live tracks, much of it previously unreleased. I played the debut today at work and it sounds fantastic - the remastering really enhances the sound.Today I offer some of the tasty extras from that debut. Swinging London sounds like it should be soundtracking an Austin Powers movie - plenty of swingin' swankiness and twangin' guitar. Brass In Pocket (Demo) is a bit slower than the final product but just as powerful, and notice how she sings \"you're special\" in the chorus instead of \"I'm special\". Kid (Demo) is full of the gorgeous vocals that only Chrissie can deliver - it's amusing to hear her riff on The Police at very beginning of this too. A brilliant LP and a fantastic reissue.\nI recently got sent a promo of Brazilian jazz pianist Elaine Elias' latest LP. Called Around The City, it is her 18th album and a more pop oriented record. No, it isn't pop like Xtina or Britney, but it has added some electronics and loops into the mix - dare I use the dreaded \"trip hop\" tag? There is still plenty of jazz flavor, and she is still playing some fierce piano, but now her vocals are just as much a focal point. There is of course much Brazilian flavor too, with several tunes sung in Potuguese. There are also a handful of covers, and the choices are so interesting that they really grabbed my attention. Tito Puente's Oye Como Va is a monster classic of Latin music, and best known as one of Carlos Santana's earliest hits. This is a fairly faithful rendition, full of smooth, sultry vocals and a smoking key solo. Her arrangement of Bob Marley's Jammin' is a radical departure from the original. Instead of a laid back reggae vibe think St. Germain's 2000 hit Rose Rouge. It has rolling, rumbling beats and shuffling percussion - there are two drummers at work here, plenty of piano vamping and a nice trumpet solo and hand claps all adding up to a very unique take on a classic song. Finally, a cover of Beck's Tropicalia brings it all back to Brazil - the original being a tribute to the Brazilian music scene of the mid to late '60s. A slightly mellower rendition that works very well.\nBamboo Houses Day four of digitized vinyl \"ripped...\nTwo Hearts Beat As One Day 3 of digitized vinyl \"...\nMuck It Out Day two of digitized vinyl \"ripped fr...\nThe Ideal Copy I had a couple of hours to myself ...\nFunky Friday Four Pack It's all about hip hop and...\nMusique It's hard to believe it, but it has been ...\nIn The Round The Cardigans have a new record out....\nFunky Friday's Big Twelve Inches Today brings a f...\nPretenders II After yesterday's piece on the Pret...\nThis week one of my music collector super wishes c...\nA Handful Of Covers I recently got sent a promo o...",

River rocks are normally used because they are so smooth - they have been smoothed over time by the river's current.\nThe stones are immersed in water and heated in an electric heating device until they are within a certain temperature range.

        "raw_content": "The Two Political Bombshells Dropped During the FBI Director\u2019s Congressional Hearing\n(The Antimedia) Even in Washington D.C. politics, FBI Director James Comey is a confusing figure. With only ten days left before the 2016 election, Comey revealed the FBI was investigating Hillary Clinton\u2019s use of a private email server. That announcement played extremely well for Donald Trump and resulted in a backlash from Democratic lawmakers Dianne Feinstein of California and Tom Carper of Delaware, who authored a letter demanding a briefing on the investigation.\nby Staff Writers, March 21st, 2017\nThen, earlier this month, the New York Times revealed that Comey asked the Justice Department to publicly reject President Trump\u2019s claims that Trump Tower was wiretapped by the Obama administration. Comey\u2019s request came in response to two early morning tweets sent out by President Trump on March 4th.\nOn Monday, the House Intelligence Committee unloaded a barrage of questions upon Comey, and while he refused to comment on several of their inquiries, he did reveal two ground-shaking facts from inside the intelligence community. While both of his revelations were damaging to the Trump White House, specifically their desire for credibility and to put the Russia investigation behind them, he also failed to provide Democrats the nail-in-the-coffin moment they were hoping for.\nWe're revolutionizing the news industry, but we need your help! Click here to get started.\nFirstly, Comey admitted for the first time on public record that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating ties between the Trump campaign and Russian agents. Devin Nunes of California, a longtime Trump ally and chair of the House Intelligence Committee, sought to combat any sense of collusion between the Trump administration and Moscow. \u201cDo you have any evidence that Russia cyber actors changed vote tallies in the state of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, North Carolina, Ohio?\u201d he asked National Security Administration director Mike Rogers. In each case, Rogers responded negatively but did stress that the NSA \u201cis a foreign intelligence organization, not a domestic intelligence organization, so it would be fair to say that we are probably not the best organization to provide a more complete answer.\u201d\nPresident Trump tweeted out the exchange with the caption \u201cthe NSA and FBI tell Congress that Russia did not influence electoral process.\u201d In what was indubitably a first, Democratic lawmaker Jim Himes of Connecticut fact-checked the president\u2019s Twitter account during the congressional hearing, asking, \u201cThat\u2019s not quite accurate, that tweet?\u201d\nComey responded:\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard for me to react to that, let me just tell you what we\u2019ve said is. We\u2019ve offered no opinion, have no view, [and] have no information on potential impact because it\u2019s never something we\u2019ve looked at.\u201d\nTrump\u2019s own inner circle is not helping his case. Confidant Roger Stone has been a spur in the heel of the administration\u2019s efforts to rid themselves of the Russian controversy. Stone has boasted about a relationship with Wikileaks insiders, including Julian Assange. Though Assange has denied that Russian state actors were behind the DNC leaks, 17 American intelligence agencies concluded the Kremlin was involved \u2014 conclusions that apparently remain questionable. And Monday\u2019s hearing didn\u2019t give Democrats\u2019 hopes of exposing collusion the extra boost they needed.\nNevertheless, in his opening statement, Comey said the ongoing FBI investigation \u201cincludes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia\u2019s efforts.\u201d\nIn a surprising moment, Comey also said the Russians \u201cwanted to hurt our democracy, hurt her, help him.\u201d Even so, reports seem to indicate that President Trump intends to keep James Comey on in his role as FBI Director. While the commander-in-chief has a bittersweet relationship with the intelligence community, it would be extremely unusual for him to remove Comey.\nIn a second bombshell, Comey stated that the FBI has no information leading them to conclude former President Barack Obama \u201cwiretapped\u201d the Trump campaign. President Trump has refused to back off those claims. On Friday, in a joint press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Trump joked that \u201cas far as wiretapping, I guess, by this past administration, at least we have something in common.\u201d He defended his statements, saying the allegations of wiretapping were \u201cmade by a very talented lawyer on Fox.\u201d\nThe White House seems to have been backed into a corner with the House Intelligence Committee\u2019s hearings. These are likely to last for a few days, though they certainly haven\u2019t been nailed to the wall. Unfortunately for Democrats, who had previously smelled blood in the water, they received no confirmation of their consistent allegations. Trump\u2019s claims weren\u2019t vindicated, either.\nIn D.C., even Democratic sympathizers are beginning to characterize the Trump administration\u2019s\u2019 relationship with Russia as a room full of smoke. And to the chagrin of Democrats, Comey\u2019s statement that Trump\u2019s wiretapping tweet was unfounded didn\u2019t seem to rattle Trump allies.\nThe partisan stalemate continues.\nhttp://theantimedia.org/two-political-bombshells-comey/\nLabels: antimedia , cia , disclosure , fbi , hillary Clitnon , russia , trump",

The only hope is that more and more people will recognise that egoism is bad, even for themselves, in the long run. We all can influence the flow of time and evolution by our everyday decisions and if we try to be a little more aware of the consequences of our deeds and try to love our neighbours a little bit more (which is a Christian value, but I feel that other religions could accept it as well), that will change the world in the long run.\nIf we don\u2019t drive gas guzzlers, eat less meat, pay voluntarily more for renewable energy, don\u2019t buy products made in the 3rd world with child labour etc. this will hopefully lead to a new system which will be more human and will preserve the environment.\nMaybe that\u2019s all just stating the obvious, but I don\u2019t believe any longer that politicians or industry leaders, even if they try hard, can change much because the world economic system is self sustaining and driven only by: profit.\nWell, and if not, we will see what remedy planet earth will have to cure itself \u2026\nCheers, Uwe\nUwe, without meaning to wade into a whole debate on religion, I\u2019ll say that empathising with one\u2019s neighbours (\u201clove\u201d takes it too far, IMHO) is one of many common-sense approaches that both you and Frank suggest. That Christians claim this as a virtue for themselves doesn\u2019t make this an exclusively Christian value.\nFrank, interesting thoughts. I\u2019ve been thinking about this myself recently and I can\u2019t say I disagree with Uwe and other cynics about Earth possibly ridding itself of us. Which reminds me of a hilarious piece I once saw by George Carlin. Something to the effect of, \u201cSave the planet? The planet is fine! It\u2019s been through billions of years of volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, comet crashes\u2026 It\u2019s the people that are f***ed!\u201d\nMore seriously, I think it\u2019s time to get the policymakers, scientists, engineers, businesspeople and media out of the room, and make way for the game theorists. For all of the problems you\u2019ve highlighted here. That\u2019s the only class of people that has experience working with this kind of problem. Nash Equilibria and suchlike. Implementing the game theorists\u2019 possible solutions? Ah, that\u2019s another story.\nMurli and Uwe \u2013\nI own a tee shirt that has the \u201cgolden rule\u201d variations from Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and several other religious traditions. Caring for others at the level we care for ourselves is clearly a universally agreed upon virture. So the \u201cdevil is clearly in the implementation details. Oui?\nYep and I hazard a guess that it\u2019s been a universal value since before religions even existed, ie it\u2019s a purely biological phenomenon. All animals are social to one degree or another and need each other to some extent whether within the same species or across species. That\u2019s practically the definition of the word \u201cecosystem\u201d!",

As per a report by The Strait Times, Jin Xin of the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology made the announcement.\nSpeaking at the press conference organized by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, Jin, who is also the deputy chief commander of the rocket, reportedly said that China has significantly advanced in the crucial technologies for seaborne launches. A seaborne launch has numerous benefits over a land launch as the launch site is adaptable and the remains of a falling rocket pose less danger.\nJin further added that the Long March-11, with a takeoff weight of approximately 57.6 tons and a length of about 20.8 meters, is the only rocket utilizing solid propellants among the new generation carrier rockets in China. Moreover, the Long March-11 can be launched in a short time and has a relatively simple structure. Reportedly, the rocket can be launched within a week following its departure from the port.\nSources familiar with the matter claim that the carrier rocket can carry a payload of up to 700kg to a low-Earth orbit at an altitude of 200 kilometers, and 350kg to a sun-synchronous orbit at 700 kilometers. The rocket is reportedly utilized to carry small satellites and has the capacity to deliver multiple satellites in the orbit at the same time.\nThe Long March-11 has so far sent 25 satellites into the orbit in six launches with good performance and high-reliability rates. An additional three Long March-11 launches on land are reportedly planned this year.",

        "raw_content": "Category Archives: lightnet\nnetlabels and webcasting contrasted with on-demand\nJuly 14, 2008 business, lightnetlucasgonze\nHere are David Porter\u2019s calculations on the health of webcasting as a business:\nInternet radio revenues, however, were estimated at a mere $92,000,000 \u2014 not so impressive. A quick bit of math is revealing: $92m/4.85bn = $0.0190 per hour. That is to say, revenue/hour was just shy of 2 cents. Unfortunately, the rate for digital sound recording performance royalties (the thing I wrote about a lot last year) is $0.0011 per performance (per track, per listener). Based on an average of 14 tracks/hour, this equates to an hourly cost of $0.0154. In other words, the sound recording royalty by itself consumes 78% of advertising revenues.\nAssuming these figures are accurate, the internet radio sector is paying the labels a 78% share of their revenues. By contrast, traditional (aka terrestrial) radio pays 0% of their revenues \u2014 nothing \u2014 to the labels. And satellite radio pays 6-8% of its revenues to the labels.\nFor internet radio services, the remaining 22% of their revenues must be divvied up between the musical composition royalty (probably 4-5%), bandwidth, employees (which is typically the most expensive component of cost), overhead, and, well, profit. Or not. The math doesn\u2019t work.\nDavid\u2019s data is flawed, but the overall picture is about right. The internet radio business is pretty sucky. It\u2019s not miles underwater like the on-demand business, but it\u2019s still not very sensible.\nOTOH, consider David Porter\u2019s comment on the Silicon Alley Insider piece:\nThe $10 eCPM argument is one I\u2019ve made a lot over the last couple of years. The tough thing with ad-supported on-demand is that with ubiquitous broadband wireless (not quite there yet but getting closer), such access is increasingly substitutional for music acquisition (purchased or not). While I see your volume angle, it seems unlikely that the labels (the majors, at least) would consider an on-demand rate in an range supportable by advertising.\nWhile it just got a lot more expensive, the radio rate under the US compulsory license is the only type of delivery that\u2019s at least close to being sustainable for a free/ad-based model. And, arguably, this style of delivery (passive, programmed) lends itself to advertising more so than the hunt-and-peck required for on-demand access.\nThat is, as bad as the webcasting business is, it\u2019s still better than the on-demand business.\nNow consider that internet music businesses have to compete for investment capital with internet businesses that don\u2019t pay royalties. Craigslist, Google search, and Twitter do nothing but move bits around!\nLastly, returning to the conversation about netlabels the other day, I want to point out that netlabel and other net-native music doesn\u2019t have a lot of listeners, but as long as it stays clear of copyright infringement it can have economics just like Craiglist, Twitter etc. Maybe not at that scale, but definitely at that level of profitability.\nAnd I know that people on the business side of internet music see net-native music as a joke. That\u2019s right big shots, I\u2019m talking to you specifically. Make free and legal music popular enough for your traffic to scale and you can have the grail \u2014 an internet music product that makes sense as a business. Which is exactly what Phlow-Magazine is working on by slicking up the presentation of those sources.",

        "raw_content": "Written by Guest Column | Justin S. Flippen\nFor the last few months, I\u2019ve been sharing with you the details of the Wilton Manors Strategic Plan. The third priority area of the plan is strategic growth and redevelopment in the Island City.\nThis is an exciting time for Wilton Manors. We are poised on the cusp of transitioning from a traditional single family community to a truly urban village. In order to do so, we must be very careful to preserve the quality of life in those single family home neighborhoods while increasing density on the primary corridors. The devil is in the details on this one, and some might say that the transformation has been too long in coming.\nOur development standards, unified land development regulations, comprehensive plan, and city code reflect past values (some of which are frankly outdated), and all of these rules which govern how properties get built need to be evaluated and updated. It is rare for a municipality to update all at once, but our city staff has been engaged in this process for about a year and a half and is well on the way to having a finished product. These rules include changing standards to reflect the need to account for sea level rise and energy efficiency in our building code, prepare for increased capacity in our infrastructure (like water and sewer), and encourage building on primary corridors and transit routes. The Andrews Avenue/Oakland Park Boulevard Transit Oriented Corridor is an example of these changes.\nWe have also developed an affordable housing plan and will be implementing a first time homebuyer assistance program later this year. It\u2019s a small program, since we are a smaller city, but I am committed to doing our part to ensure that Wilton Manors is a community where all are welcome.\nThe essence of this priority area of growth and redevelopment is in the development and execution of an Economic Development Plan. The city now has such a plan, and is in the beginning phases of implementation of the plan. Key initiatives include identifying potential feasibility and locations for a hotel, bringing in new Class A office space, completing a master site plan for a commuter rail station, as well as a master site plan for the city hall property. This goal also includes the creation of additional parking and promoting the city as a tourism destination.\nStay tuned for exciting things to come! Next month, we will complete our look back at the City\u2019s Strategic Plan accomplishments with the fourth and final priority area: Innovating and Adapting for the Future.\nJustin S.

(Photo : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8wGYEdL3bv1ZaN8l8xC_pQ/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y-vROBNisE)\nIt is ironic to know that the team who has snared Chris Sale back in December last year has been critical of him during the past seasons. The competitive hurler has been a marked man so to speak. This apparent bitterness has been acknowledged by Boston Red Sox President Dave Dombrowski.\nAccording to the long-time team executive, he has a negative view of Chris Sale. The truth is Dombrowski has always been uneasy anytime he sees the pitcher in his White Sox uniform. What made the President disliked the former Chicago player so much is the latter\u2019s sturdiness.\nThroughout his time wearing the White Sox outfit, Chris Sale has been an All-Star for five straight years since 2012. His pitching prowess is definitely something else. Dombrowski has pointed out that the knuckleballer knows how to find ways in order to propel his team to victory.\nConsidering the significance of Sale\u2019s durability on the mound, the Boston Red Sox has wasted no time in acquiring him. In a blockbuster deal, Chicago gave up its strong-willed pitcher for Yoan Moncada, Michael Kopech, Luis Basabe and Victor Diaz. With highly-proficient players like David Price and Rick Porcello already on the team, Boston has been perceived to only get better.\nChris Sale has learned to like Dombrowski, too. He has considered the Red Sox executive as a best friend. This approach has been attributed to the fact that the knuckleballer has found his niche in the much brighter lights of Fenway Park.\nHowever, there ought to be other reasons why Sale is enjoying his time as a Boston Red Sox. Primarily, his team\u2019s spring training camp is only thirty minutes away from his home. The place is adjacent to Florida Gulf Coast University where he attended college.\nMore importantly, Chris Sale is now on a franchise that has claimed three World Series crowns since 2004 with eight playoff berths over the last 14 seasons. Although he reiterates that Chicago has always been special to him, what he does not like about being a White Sox is donning on those throwback jerseys. For a top six Cy Young candidate in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the last five years, winning, which Chicago had a hard time earning, means a lot.\nPrevious ArticleNFL News: Colin Kaepernick's Career Is In Danger Of Ending Due To Racism\nNext Article PENGUINS vs CAPITALS Watch FREE Live Stream Online: Round 2 NHL Playoffs Game 2 Live Coverage From Washington, D.C.",

        "raw_content": "Clinton argued that Trump's campaign stoked hatred of minorities.\nMrs. Clinton said: \"The de facto merger between Breitbart and the Trump campaign represents a landmark achievement for the Alt-Right\".\nClinton, the Democratic nominee, registers 41 percent support among likely voters, while Trump, her GOP counterpart, claims 36 percent.\nWhile he wrote previous year that Trump's physical strength and stamina are extraordinary, Bornstein tells NBC that he doesn't think Trump is in any better or worse shape than the average person who exercises daily. Clinton has since apologized for using the term.\nThe meeting comes amid a new push from Trump to court Latino and African-American voters. She replied, \"I am sure\", and mentioned her strong understanding about the foundation's work.\nHe said the country's GDP growth rate of 1.1 percent in the second quarter was not a good sign for the U.S. economy. The messages could become public in mid-October.\nDr. Harold Bornstein's report last December remains the only medical information released so far by Trump's campaign. The department did not immediately respond. He also said he would step down from its board and would no longer raise money for the organization.\nRepublican presidential candidate Donald Trump promised a tracking system for arrivals and departures in this country so that anyone whose visa expires will \"quickly\" be expelled.\nTo the nearly entirely African-American crowd at the historically black Florida A&M University, Kaine also talked about the importance of historically black colleges and how he and Clinton plan to keep funding the schools in their education plan.\nShe also insisted that there was no conflict of interest when she was secretary of state, nor was she \"influenced\" by the foundation. \"I made policy decisions based on what I thought was right to keep America safe and protect our interests overseas\". \"We're living in her head rent-free, and that must terrify the political insiders who want to keep things exactly the way they are\".\nAsked why the foundation didn't simply turn over its programs to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation or some other charity, she said it was now looking for partners. \"This is not Republicanism as we have known it\", she said. In a speech on Thursday, Hillary Clinton characterized supporters of Trump known as the \"alt-right\" as \"white nationalists\" with an agenda of racism.\nLeaders of the group greeted the Democratic presidential candidate's vitriol with unrestrained glee.\nSpeaking at a campaign event in Reno, Nevada, Clinton employed unusually tough language as she detailed a history of what she said were the Republican real estate mogul's discriminatory actions.\nShe added: \"Of course, there's always been a paranoid fringe in our politics, steeped in racial resentment\".\nDuke is a former Klan grand wizard, now running for a Senate seat in Louisiana, who has urged his supporters to back Trump.\nThe New York businessman has vacillated by saying there would be \"a softening\" of existing immigration laws and later suggesting for the first time that if he did authorize deportations, many of those immigrants would be allowed to return quickly to the United States. Its views are seen by many as white supremacist and anti-Semitic.\nOn a conference call with reporters, Kaufmann said Democrat \"have got to recognize the hypocrisy of her commercials\" in light of Clinton's tribute to the late Democratic Sen. \"The veil was pulled back on a vast criminal enterprise run out of the State Department by Hillary Clinton\".\nKaine's comments at Florida A&M University in Tallahassee came a day after Clinton detailed her case against Trump, accusing him of amplifying the voices of racist and anti-Semitic figures.",

At this time, there are no Charlotte County players at that level.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a science because if they\u2019re going to slide through the draft anyway, our second round pick that we\u2019d get in lieu of that would be a better pick,\u201d Chris Horne, VP of Hockey Operations said.\n\u201cWe\u2019d get those kids anyway; we\u2019d just sign them as free agents.\u201d\nOlauson said heading into the draft, the Aces are looking for player who can make an immediate impact.\n\u201cWith the No. 1, 2 and 3 pick in the league you\u2019d want those to turn into players that can make an impact now, whether that is a player we select in the draft or trade for,\u201d Olauson said, adding there is a roster freeze-up until draft day.\n\u201cSo this week we are formulating a plan of what the value of those picks are, and what it would cost a team to trade for one of them.\u201d\nAs the draft marks the first building blocks of the off-season, Olauson said the goal is to build the team identity around hard workers.\n\u201cI think Eric (Neilson, assistant coach) and I agree that the hard work has to be the soul of the team. If we\u2019re picking kids, they\u2019ve got to display to us that they\u2019re going to put some sweat into the jersey and be willing to be do more than what\u2019s been done in the past.\u201d\nOlauson explained in the days before the draft, there\u2019s going to be a lot of \u201cmoving parts\u201d, with players firming up their commitment to the team.\n\u201cIt will be the best player available that can make an impact this year at that age.\u201d\nBoth Olauson and Neilson said they are looking forward to the unique opportunity with their first round picks, something they emphasized as \u201cextremely rare.\u201d\n\u201cWe have the ability because of the trades last year to change the fortune of this team long-term with this upcoming draft, and we\u2019re going to try to put it in work to make sure that the picks don\u2019t go unused.\u201d\nOlauson said though it\u2019s still too early to confirm players for training camp, he said following the draft, he\u2019s hoping to \u201ctap into\u201d players he\u2019s familiar with from the western provinces and U.S that are not draft eligible, but noted the foundation of the team will remain with the returning players.\n\u201cThere are still returning players that are going to fit the mold of what were looking for.\u201d\n-Sam McGaw \u2013 Olauson said McGaw, a St. Stephen native is on the team\u2019s protected list, with \u201ca strong consideration\u201d to become a member of the Aces. McGaw, who attended Rothesay Netherwood School, has affiliated with the Aces in the past.\n\u2013 Though not divulging a name, Olauson said he\u2019s looking to bring in a 20-year-old goal-scoring forward who\u2019s going to be \u201can immediate impact player.\u201d Olauson said the player will give the team word this week.\n\u2013 Connor MacGregor, an 18-year-old forward from the Charlottetown Islanders midget AAA who nearly made the team last season, will likely be joining the Aces. \u201cWe have big plans for Connor MacGregor to come in and be a young, hardworking kid, and give people a reason to get out of their seat this year,\u201d Olauson said.\nPrevious articleWords of wisdom from McAdam High senior athletes of the year\nNext articleGwynne Dyer \u2013 Global View \u2013 Trump\u2019s Trade Delusion",

        "title": "Gospel Facts",
        "raw_content": "STEM Publishing : J T Mawson : Magazine Ministry : Gospel Facts\nGospel Facts\nA Sunday Evening Address\n\"And he said to them, These are the words which I spake to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, and said to them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem\" (Luke 24:44-47).\nThe time had come for us to start for our Sunday evening meeting, when the little son of my host said to me, \"I hope that you will preach tonight so that I can understand.\" I have taken the words of that lad to heart and I am determined, by the help of the Lord, to preach the gospel so that the children of ten can understand. In doing so I shall not be insulting the intelligence of the older people, for God's gospel suits every age and class; it is simple enough for the children, yet so full and so blessed that the oldest saint on earth or in heaven cannot fathom the depths of it. It is God's spell, God's story, and he that has an ear let him hear it. The time has come for you to listen and not to talk. \"Say not in thine heart . . .\" says the Word, for faith comes not by talking or arguing, but by hearing: \"faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.\"\nThe gospel consists of facts, and children can believe facts, and the facts are these: \"It behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day,\" and the object in view was, \"that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His Name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.\" And of such impelling and divine importance are these facts that from the time of the fall of man in Eden, God had spoken of them in type and allegory and by definite prophecy. His communications as to them are to be found in Moses, the prophets and the Psalms: in every part of the Old Testament Scriptures. \"It is written,\" said the risen Lord, and what is written must stand \u2014 it is as impregnable as the throne of God. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but not one jot or tittle of it shall fail; it must all be fulfilled. What was written about the sufferings and resurrection of Christ has been fulfilled, and it is this that the gospel preacher must tell the people. Not the twelve apostles only, but Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles, who had not seen the Lord on earth but who had seen Him in glory, proclaimed these facts, for \"he reasoned . . . out of the Scriptures, opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach to you, is Christ\" (Acts 17:2-3). And when allowed to explain his life's purpose before kings and rulers, he had nothing else to urge. \"Having obtained help of God,\" he said, \"I continue to this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come: that Christ should suffer, and that He . . . should rise from the dead, and should show light to the people, and to the Gentiles\" (Acts 26:22-23). Yes, these great facts are needed by all and are preached for all: for rich and poor, for great and small, for the children who have not yet chosen the self-willed way, as well as for those who have grown hard and old in their sins.\n\"It behoved Christ to suffer.\" It was a necessity, for all have sinned, and the wages of sin is death, and after this the judgment. If sinners ever were to escape the judgment to come, and know the unspeakable blessing of sins forgiven, Christ must suffer, and this Jesus whom I preach to you is Christ; He is both Lord and Christ, and there is no salvation in any name but His. If men could have cleansed their own souls from their filth and atoned for their own sins and saved themselves from Satan's power and the just judgment of God, do you think that God would have sent His well-beloved Son to suffer? Nay, He is a just God, and while He will not give His glory to another, He will not rob others of any glory that is their due, and if men could have saved themselves He would have let them try, and when they had accomplished the work He would have said, \"Well done!\" and crowned them with the glory of a great achievement. indeed, for 4000 years they had their opportunities, though God well knew the result from the beginning, and they only proved that they were without strength for good, that all their righteousnesses were but filthy rags, that all the world was guilty before God.\n\"It behoved Christ to suffer.\" For God would have all men to be saved; and the Saviour of sinners must suffer the judgment that their sins demanded. None could do that but Jesus, who came to give His life a ransom for all. He came from heaven's highest glory, for He is the Word, the Creator, and He became a man to undo the works of the devil and suffer for sins \u2014 He, the Just One for us the unjust, to bring us to God. I would warn you against those who deny the Deity of our Lord. There are those who teach that He began His existence in the manger at Bethlehem. If that were so the Scripture has no meaning which says, \"Ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, for your sakes He became poor, that ye through His poverty might be rich.\" If He began His existence in Bethlehem, John's Gospel is a lie from its first sentence to its last, and Micah was a foolish dreamer when he prophesied seven centuries before the event, \"But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall He come forth to Me, that is to be ruler in Israel, whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.\" Our Saviour Jesus Christ is the great God, and only those who have no sense of what sin is, and how firm and unshakeable God's righteousness must for ever stand, would deny it. Without shedding of blood is no remission. Hence the Saviour must be a man or He would have no blood to shed, and He must be God or His blood could not have met the case, it would not have had atoning value.\nIt is written that Christ must suffer, and from the moment that His Name was called Jesus there could be no turning back, for that Name was given to Him because He should save His people from their sins. He had come to make good His title to that Name. He bore it upon the cross of Calvary encompassed by hosts of foes. He will bear it upon the throne of glory surrounded by countless friends, all ransomed from hell's deep judgment by His sufferings and precious blood. Beware of those who preach a gospel without the blood and a Christ without the cross. Their gospel is no gospel at all, but a deception of the devil. In it there is neither righteousness nor love, justice nor mercy. God is not revealed in it, nor Satan exposed, nor sin, nor the heart of man, which is deceitful above all things; and it cannot breathe into the sin-burdened soul those peace-giving words, \"Thy sins are forgiven thee.\"\n\"It behoved Christ to suffer,\" and for such as we are He died. He passed through this world, so foul in its sin and pollution, holy, harmless and undefiled, but His path through it led only to the cross, and when we were yet without strength, in due time CHRIST DIED FOR THE UNGODLY. How wonderful is that sentence! I read it with gratitude and rapture in my heart, and I said, \"Christ died for the ungodly. Why, Lord Jesus, my Saviour, that means me, Christ died for me,\" and as I pondered the great fact, a light above the brightness of the sun broke into my soul. I learnt that God loved me in spite of my sins, and my darkness was dispelled, the scales fell from my eyes, I was delivered from the captivity in which the devil had held me, and I saw the truth, and the truth is that God is love but I never could have known it, nor could any other sinner, if Christ had not suffered, \"for herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.\"\nThe remission of sins is a priceless blessing, for it cost an inconceivable price. It never could have been preached to sinners if Christ had not suffered, but now it is offered freely to all, and because it is free, some have scornfully called it cheap. It is not cheap, it is the most costly thing on earth or in heaven; the price that was paid for it was the blood of God's dear Son. If you would know its value you must penetrate the thick darkness that wrapt itself about the Saviour at Calvary; you must fathom the depths of woe into which He sank when He cried, \"My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?\" You must know the greatness of your sin and the value of His blood.\nThese things neither man nor angel can measure; then neither man nor angel can tell the value of the forgiveness of sins \u2014 this first of all blessings that has come to us through the sufferings of Christ. Happy are those who can say, \"In whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of God's grace.\"\nIf we who have believed can rejoice in this great salvation, it is because of the sufferings of our great Saviour, and we know that He suffered because of the great love wherewith He loved us. It is this that binds our hearts to Him with a true devotion. We love Him and follow Him, not because crowns of glory shine upon His sacred brow, but because He suffered for us, when He was made sin for us on the cross. We should not marvel that men and women have made great sacrifices for Christ's sake and have even gladly laid down their lives for Him, for it was the love of Christ that constrained them. They could say, \"The Son of God loved me and gave Himself for me,\" and they could do no other than they did do. The marvel is that any who have heard the story should be indifferent to it and hold back from complete surrender to Him.\nHe had to rise again the third day, according to the Scriptures. This also was a necessity. Beware of those deceivers who deny the bodily resurrection of Christ, for \"If Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.\" Thus it is written and thus it must be. If Christ is not raised, there is no Saviour for men and no hope, and we who have trusted in Him are of all men most miserable; for if He is not risen, then have our sins proved too heavy a load for Him, and Satan's power too great and death too strong. If Christ be not raised, then has the grave triumphed and He has failed in His mission, He has failed both God and man, and His word can no more be relied upon, for He said that He would suffer and rise again the third day. But now is Christ risen from the dead, and His resurrection is one of the great facts of the gospel, and those who deny it are ministers of Satan. I preach a risen Saviour, and none other will suit you. He died, but He lives; He suffered, but He has triumphed. Hear His own words: \"I am He that lives, and was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore. Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.\" His resurrection is the proof of a work accomplished, of a sacrifice accepted, of justice satisfied, of death defeated, the power of Satan annulled, and God glorified. His sufferings upon the cross proved His willingness to save, His resurrection from the dead has proved His power to save. I proclaim to you a victorious, almighty Saviour who is willing and able to save even you.\nGod has put His seal upon the work of Christ, by raising Him from the dead, and now, through His Name, repentance and the remission of sins are preached to you, and these two things go together. Repentance must come first: there could be no remission apart from repentance. But what does repentance mean? Not fear of the consequences of sin, nor even sorrow for the sin itself, though that will surely go with it. Repentance is a complete turn. When God commands all men everywhere to repeat, it is as though He said, \"Right about turn!\" Unconverted sinner, you have turned your back upon God, and you must admit that that is a serious thing to do; it is, to say the least about it, a most discourteous thing to do. If you were admitted to the presence of His Majesty the King, you would not turn your back upon him, certainly not if he wished to speak to you. God is speaking to you, He is beseeching, entreating, commanding you, and you will not listen. You have turned your back upon Him. I call upon you at this time to \"Right about turn,\" and hear what God is saying to you.\nIf you would only believe the preaching, you would turn to Him, as did a soldier friend of mine who was killed in the war. He was an old soldier, the regimental sergeant-major of a famous regiment. He was converted in South Africa during the Boer War, and this is how it came about. He was canteen sergeant at the time, and had sunk as low down in debauchery as it was possible for a man to sink. Of course, he was miserable, for how can a sinner be happy? \u2014 so miserable that on one Saturday night outside the canteen he cursed and blasphemed God as though He were the cause of his misery. He returned to the canteen with his hatred of God surging up in his heart, when he saw lying on a table a gospel tract. He picked it up and read in it: \"You may be a great sinner, but God loves you.\" The words went right home to his soul and conscience as God's answer to his cursing. They changed his view completely and altered his whole outlook, and that very night, as a broken-hearted sinner, he turned and found himself face to face with a pardoning God. Yes, that very night at the feet of Jesus his sins were forgiven. That utter change of mind which turned the canteen sergeant to God was repentance. Will you turn as he turned? This repentance is preached to you in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and if you obey the word and turn you will meet a pardoning God.\nWho can describe the blessedness of forgiveness? It is quietness after the storm, relief from the great burden. It gives a deep, holy peace to the heart as the sense of it is realized. The Pharisee cannot know this blessedness, nor the man who excuses his sins or refuses to own to God and to himself that he is a sinner. But the man who has felt the smart and sting of sin, the man who has discovered that his sins are neither dead nor done with, that he cannot escape them, that with persistent feet they are pursuing him, gathering round him and crying insistently, \"Thou art the man\" \u2014 that man will welcome it and value it. The man whose conscience has been awakened and who feels that he has sinned against God and has looked into the abyss into which his sins were forcing him, he will find no ease and no rest until be is assured of God's forgiveness; he cannot forgive himself, neither man nor angel can justify him, but God can, and with a broken and contrite heart he will turn to God and find that God will put upon him the kiss of forgiveness and clothe him in the best robe. Then he will take up David's song and say, \"Blessed is the man whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.\"\nWho will honour God by believing His gospel? Who will bow down and bless the Saviour for His sufferings and victory? Who will confess His glorious Name and follow Him, prepared for suffering in this life, if needs be, for His Name's sake, but assured of glory with Him hereafter? If you are convinced that this is the truth that I have preached to you, you will surely bow to it, and personally accept it and give God thanks.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Tech Culture / Water Bottle Tests For Dirty Water\nWe\u2019re all into being eco-friendly around here, and using reusable water bottles is a great way to save our planet. With their increased popularity, now you can find water bottles in a variety of designs and materials, all in an effort to cater to all demographics and pay grades of the conscious consumer. Recently, there\u2019s yet another prefix that one manufacturer is capitalizing on \u2013 fear. But, some people might be wary of the quality of the water they\u2019re drinking.\nWater tragedies, like those that surfaced in Flint, Michigan, have many questioning the quality of drinking water in their homes, neighborhoods, schools and workplaces. Consequently, one company is positioned to make a fortune off of this fear.\nThe Ecomo Water Bottle, is technologically equipped to provide a digital readout of water quality and, subsequent filtering actions. The design raised more than $275,000 on Kicksarter, far surpassing its original funding goal of a mere $50,000.\nHow to use the device is simple. Consumers only need to fill the bottle with water, shake it, and read the digital light display, which reports either \u201cbad,\u201d \u201cmoderate\u201d or \u201cgreat.\u201d\nUsers can shake the bottle to test for water quality. (Image via Kickstarter)\nThe bottle\u2019s filtering system can remove contaminants, such as chlorine, pharmaceutical drugs, bacteria and more, according to Snapmunk. As an added bonus, consumers can remove the bottom band from the bottle and wear it as a bracelet. The bracelet has Bluetooth connectivity, and through an app, reports to users how much water they\u2019ve consumed and notifies them when they need to drink more.\nHey Buddy!, I found this information for you: \"Water Bottle Tests For Dirty Water\".

One such fundamental function is to ensure the security of citizens. Swedepeace and its network partners, with extensive field experience, including developing new approaches, can help you and your partners identify strategic options for increasing democratic and people centered security.\nNew Approached to Democratic Security \u0096 Options for Action\nIn past years, new areas of work have come to the fore, such as small arms and light weapons (SALW), disarmament, demobilization, and re-integration (DDR), security systems reforms (SSR), and armed violence reduction (AVR).\nSecurity System Reform\nThe OECD DAC Handbook on Security System Reform (SSR), recently developed by the OECD Development Assistance Committee, articulates a strong framework for change at both the political and operational levels. Swedepeace and its network partners, having helped develop the OECD approach, can help assess or analyse a particular security and justice system to identify options for action. We can also facilitate capacity building and conduct monitoring and evaluation (integrating RBM).\nArmed Violence Reduction\nIn relation to issues concerning citizens, democratic security, andfragile states, armed violence reduction (AVR) is emerging as an integrated area like that of conflict resolution. Both violent conflictand crime-related armed violence demand urgent attention. Many countries are not harvesting the benefits of peace but have instead become submerged in crime-related violence. AVR seeks to prevent and reduce armed violence by joining together the areas of security system reform (SSR), small arms and light weapons (SALW), disarmament, demobilization, and re-integration (DDR) of former combatants, as well as more traditional areas of development cooperation such as education and productive employment. Swedepeace and its network partners have been active in the emerging field of AVR and can help you analyse and propose options for action to agencies and organizations. We can then provide training, help monitor and evaluate, and supply corresponding support for results-based management.",

        "title": "How Artificial Intelligence will Stimulate Cognitive Diversity in the Workplace | Symmetra",
        "raw_content": "Home > News & Knowledge > How Artificial Intelligence will Stimulate Cognitive Diversity in the Workplace\nArtificial Intelligence (AI): a branch of computer science which enables a machine to imitate intelligent human behaviour and which through artificial neural networks is capable of learning through experience.\nThe arrival of the technological wave created by artificial intelligence has elicited a huge number of assessments and predictions as to what this means for the future of work. Some people embrace AI unreservedly as embodying huge potential for good, while others see a dismal future for a large part of humanity, predicting dire consequences as machines surpass humans in overall intelligence and render much of humanity redundant.\nA widely held perception is that the changes likely to be wrought to our societies and workplaces by the advent of AI will be nothing less than revolutionary-destroying or replacing in a short space of time much of what is familiar and creating entirely new systems and ways of solving problems.\nThis has given rise to a great debate as to whether to welcome the great opportunities afforded by AI or to fear it as representing a force which we will be unable to control.\nIn a speech given in November 2017, the late Steven Hawking, while emphasising that embracing AI may be initiating or even inviting unforeseen perils, said the following:\n\u201cI am an optimist and believe that we can create AI for the good of the world. That it can work in harmony with us. We simply need to be aware of the dangers, identify them, employ the best possible practice and management and prepare for its consequences well in advance \u201c\nSince AI is already a presence in many workplaces, we need to understand the long-term consequences on our workforces as tasks pass from workers to machines. More particularly, how will increasing implementation of AI systems affect the drive to make our workplaces, demographically and cognitively more diverse?\nMany progressive organisations and businesses have recognised and embraced the notion that establishing teams composed of people who possess diverse thinking styles enhances the capacity for innovative ideas and creates material benefits for the organisation. Will the power of AI render workforce demography irrelevant and eliminate the need to diverse thinkers who collectively generate the bulk of innovative ideas?\nThis is not a hypothetical question or an issue to be reserved for future deliberation. The influence of intelligent technology is changing the commercial landscape at a bewildering pace. Entrepreneurs are seizing upon the powerful learning ability of algorithms to look for ways of disrupting entire industries. A notable example here is driverless cars in the transport industry. At the same time, companies are seeking opportunities to radically remodel all aspects of their operations so as to gain competitive advantage while labour experts have concluded that many job categories will simply disappear as their functions are superseded by computers applying algorithms which do the job much more efficiently.\nOn the jobs front, a McKinsey report found that 30% of work activities could be automated by 2030 and up to 375 million workers worldwide could be affected by emerging technologies. The OECD has taken a different approach focusing. on \u201ctasks \u201crather than jobs\u201d. It estimated that 14% of jobs are highly automatable and another 32% have a significant risk of automation.\nMore recently, a somewhat more optimistic view has been taken of the way that AI will be integrated in our workplaces. Experts who spoke at the MIT Sloan Summit (2018) indicated that while machines can undoubtedly perform some tasks better than humans, they cannot generally perform all tasks needed for a job. A similar view is to be found in a comprehensive analysis from McKinsey Global Institute (May 2018), where the following assertion appears:\n\u201cAccompanying the adoption of advanced technologies into the workplace will be an increase in the need for workers with finely tuned social skills-skills that machines are a long way from mastering\u201d\nThus instead of an outright contest to see whether humans can resist an invasion by AI there will very likely be partnerships or collaboration on a broad scale in the workplace between AI machines and humans.\nAn insightful and cogent appraisal of how AI could be leveraged to be married with soft skills possessed by humans comes from a report published by TATA communications (2018). This report also adopts and endorses the premise that humans and AI systems can, and most probably will, interact in ever increasing ways in the workplace.\nIt bases its theoretical approach on the highly regarded work of Professor Scott Page , especially in his latest publication, The Diversity Bonus which postulates that the more diverse the participants, the more opportunities to discover insights and novel approaches. Accordingly, the authors of the TATA study set out to ascertain how this principle might work when one or more of the participants is an AI machine.\nThe study surveyed more than 120 business leaders across a range of industries to gauge current interest in and understanding of, AI with particular regard to the impact of positive trends within their organisations.\nFour themes about the future role of AI emerged from the study and each one has implications for optimising cognitive diversity within the organisation:\nThe structure of work will change and require greater agility and flexibility\nToday candidates are hired for a specific role. In future candidates might be hired on the assumption that they will fill multiple roles over their career. Roles will move from being task-based to strategic, requiring more expansive cognitive skills. Since roles will be changing multiple times over the course of careers, each candidate will have to employ diverse cognitive skills to manage the different roles and AI can be used to map the diverse talent opportunities available within a company .\nAI has the potential to help individuals become more agile, curious and nimble.\nAs time is freed up through the use of AI, workers\u2019 time will be available for more creative tasks and more opportunities to think in non-linear ways. Team members will have time to debate and seek fresh ways of approaching and solving problems. The more diverse the totality of contributors, the greater the likelihood of coming up with innovative solutions.\nAI has the potential to enhance human collaboration\nAI could facilitate team composition, organisation and communications such as offering new and alternate ways of approaching a team session,( especially those where various members are dispersed across diverse global locations) and utilising its ability to translate multiple languages used by participants. This means that diverse thinking from many sources across the globe could be merged and cross-pollinated in real time more efficiently\nAI has the potential to enhance cognitive diversity within groups\nLeaders often make judgements on their own about strategic and operational matters. AI systems could help to source expert advice from other areas in the organisation efficiently, breaking down silos and bringing together a diverse set of viewpoints.\nMost crucially, the overarching conclusion is expressed thus:\n\u201cWith autonomous processes becoming more scalable, original and diverse ideas will create competitive advantages. By building diverse teams through a combination of workers and machines, the number of new cognitive skills will be multiplied, increasing the ability to turn a problem around, look at it from different directions and deploy different skills to find creative solutions.\u201d\nHaving said that, it will be up to organisations and their leaderships to lay the groundwork by pushing ever harder to employ and promote employees whose thinking styles differ from the conventional. Companies and organisations will reap the benefits of AI to the maximum if the workers who interact with it possess the diversity of cognitive skills to discover the myriad ways in which AI can be used to the advantage of the organisation. If this is done, workers will be able to employ to the maximum the humanistic skills which still distinguish them from machines and to get the best outcomes from the diverse thinking when humans and AI machines work in concert.\nReference: Skill Shift-Automation and the Future of the Workforce\n\u00ab 6 Neuroscientific Principles to Make Inclusion Training Better Delivering Through Diversity \u00bb",

It also gives an opportunity to discuss the role of Dushanbe Conferences in the implementation of the Water for Sustainable Development Decade.\nThe Conference will deepen the understanding of the International Decade for Action \u201cWater for Sustainable Development\u201d, 2018-2028, promote integrated water resources management and galvanize action in support of the implementation of the water-related SDGs.\nSpecifically, the Conference aims to:\n\u2013 Mobilize efforts of governments, the United Nations, international organizations, civil society organizations, as well as other parties at all levels for the implementation of the Action Plan of the Decade to achieve internationally agreed water-related goals, including those contained in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development;\n\u2013 Increase attention to the water-related SDGs and targets at all levels, as well as to the interlinkages between different goals and targets;\n\u2013 Strengthen cooperation and partnership at all levels to achieve water-related SDGs;\n\u2013 Better understand how water contributes to achieve sustainability and how the lack of sustainability impacts water resources;\n\u2013 Provide recommendations on the way forward with the implementation of the Water for Sustainable Development Decade and particularly the waterrelated Sustainable Development Goals;\n\u2013 Discuss the role of the Dushanbe Conferences for the implementation of the Water for Sustainable Development Decade;\n\u2013 Contribute to the establishment of a framework to regularly monitor and evaluate the implementation of the Water for Sustainable Development Decade, including a mapping of existing partnerships.\nThe Dushanbe Conference is expected to produce three outcome documents, which will be produced by the Conference Secretariat with the support of the International Steering Committee and in consultation with delegations:\n1. A declaration of the participants containing the main recommendations that emerged from the Conference for the implementation of the Water for Sustainable Development Decade and other relevant issues;\n2. A call for action listing the initiatives and partnerships that the participants proposed during the Conference for the implementation of the Decade and other relevant issues.\n3. A Chair\u2019s Summary containing the key messages from the main sessions of the Conference.\nToday, the lack of access to a safe drinking water source, basic sanitation and sound hygiene alongside with water scarcity and water pollution constitute one of the major challenges for the international community, in particular for the developing countries. Increasing water-related disasters, climate change, urbanization, population growth, desertification, and drought with the lack of capacity to ensure Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) further exacerbate this situation. To address these interlinked challenges, on 21 December 2016 the United Nations General Assembly unanimously adopted the Resolution 71/222 to declare the period 2018- 2028 as an International Decade for Action \u201cWater for Sustainable Development\u201d.\nThe United Nations General Assembly adopted the following important resolutions initiated by the Republic of Tajikistan:\n\u2014 The proclamation of 2003 the International Year of Fresh Water (UN General Assembly Resolution of December 20, 2000, 55/196, 55th session);\nIn September 2000, at the United Nations Millennium Summit, the world leaders committed themselves to halve the proportion of people without access to safe drinking water by 2015; moreover, at the Johannesburg World Summit on Sustainable Development, 2002, a goal was set to halve the proportion of people without access to adequate sanitation by the year of 2015.\nThe International Year of Fresh Water had to mobilize the world to achieve these goals by raising awareness on the problem, creating new ideas and strategies to address it. In this regard, the United Nations planned to conduct a number of activities, the central one was the International Fresh Water Forum (29 August \u2013 1 September 2003, Dushanbe).\n\u2014 The proclamation of 2005-2015 the International Decade for Action \u201cWater for Life\u201d (UN General Assembly Resolution of December 23, 2003, 58/217, 58th session);\nThe main goal of the Decade was to promote efforts to fulfill international commitments made on water and water-related issues by the year 2015.\nThese commitments also included the development goals contained in the United Nations Millennium Declaration, particularly, to halve the proportion of people without access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation.\nAnother important goal of the Decade was to develop, by 2015, plans for integrated water resource management and water-use efficiency in rendering assistance to the developing countries.\n\u2014 The proclamation of 2013 the International Year of Water Cooperation (UN General Assembly Resolution of December 20, 2010, 65/154, 65th session)\nTaking into account the growing water problems and acknowledging the partnership as a key factor in the solutions of the problems, on 20 December 2010 the UN General Assembly adopted the Resolution 65/154 by consensus initiated by the Republic of Tajikistan. According to the resolution, the year 2013 was declared as the International Year of Water Cooperation.\nCooperation in the field of water resources plays a crucial role in ensuring security, poverty alleviation, achieving social justice and gender equality. Water cooperation is economically profitable and a determining factor for the conservation of water resources and environmental protection.\nAs an initiator of the \u201cwater\u201d resolutions of the UN General Assembly, the Republic of Tajikistan actively promotes the water related issues on the global agenda.\nThe Global level actions of the country on water are characterized by the desire to attract more attention of the world community to address water issues and improve water cooperation.\n\u2014 The proclamation of 2018-2028 the International Decade for Action \u201cWater for Sustainable Development\u201d (UN General Assembly Resolution of December 21, 2016, 71/222, 71st session)",

        "raw_content": "Do we sometimes try to make things overcomplicated for the sake of it?\nAs I've said, revisiting Michael J. Pont's book on Software Engineering, he starts out that software is complex. But the only way to work with it, it to break it down and manage it as a number of smaller, simpler components.\nIf those components are still too complex, then maybe they need to be broken down into even smaller parts.\nThere is a certain elegance in simplicity. If you look at Apple products (and I'm not one of Apples biggest fans) I will concede their products do have elegance, and an ease/simplicity to them. It's no wonder so much of the industry look to them as setting the style of products.\nIn Agile too, there is a drive by using stories and slices of functionality to try and keep what's being worked on very simple.\nBut why? Simple concepts are easier to understand, manage, develop and test. Simple is good.\nBut when it comes to communication and documentation? What then?\nI used to have a certain amount of jealousy when I read some other people's work \u2013 their writing would feel more professional than mine. They'd use big words, which I'd often not really understand. And it would be impressive.\nBut my style was much more down to earth, and much plainer. I then did a night course in history, where my tutor explained to the class how a historical papers used to be submitted, and they almost got extra marks for being difficult to read. But there had been a recent fashion to keep the English much more plain and contemporary, because it made the arguments much easier to follow and made the work so much more accessible.\nI know I've worked on projects where I've read huge documents of requirements, and have a \u201cEureka!\u201d moment when I actually realise what they're actually saying. That happened on the last project \u2013 I was on there first, and I a peer tester was brought in, and made to read the same requirements as me.\nAt the end of the day he said he'd had trouble with the document, and didn't really understand it. I managed to sum it up for him in about 2-4 sentences of explanation.\nAlthough I'm not an Agilist, I'm coming to the end of this, and realising how much I'm getting there. If something can be summed up in a couple of paragraphs of explanation, why not do it that way? Why develop so much documentation, that it's overly complex and unreadable?\nWe do as an industry - be it manager, analyst, developer, tester \u2013 have a fetish for trying to complicate things, primarily through the fear that simplification will diminish the value of what we do.\nTake heed from Apple \u2013 keeping things simple but elegant doesn't mean they're not of value \u2026 People value what Apple does because they manage their solutions to keep them simple, and that takes skill and ability. And as anyone knows any Apple product that looks so simple, does not come cheap ...\n\u0e08\u0e35\u0e04\u0e25\u0e31\u0e1a A site with more profitable betting games to gamble itself.

        "raw_content": "Viewing affirmative mentions of gene expression of IL2 (H. sapiens) in immune system\nChen et al. (1994) IL-2 immune system It is suggested that GSH may exert its effects on the immune system via the regulation of IL-2 synthesis.\nDonnelly et al. (1986) IL-2 immune system Because of the multipotential role of IL-2 in the immune system, enhancement of IL-2 production by NPT-15392 may be a central pathway whereby this compound augments many lymphoid effector functions.\nBessler et al. (1986) IL-2 immune system In addition, a lower stimulatory activity for interleukin-2 (IL-2) production was found in the maternal serum, suggesting an additional mechanism for the suppression of the maternal immune system during pregnancy.\nBessler et al. (1986) IL-2 immune system The possibility that a fetal humoral factor is involved in the regulation of the immune system via the stimulation of IL-2 production is discussed.\nKaplan and Moy (2000) Interleukin-2 immune system Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a cytokine produced chiefly by activated T lymphocytes and has effects on various components of the immune system.\nHinoshita et al. (1990) IL-2 immune system These results indicate that the immune system of regulating IL-2 production is impaired in patients with nephrotic syndrome.\nGoto et al. (2008) IL-2 immune system In view of the importance of vitamin A in the human immune system and the central role of interleukin-2 (IL-2) in the proliferation of T-lymphocytes, we examined the effects of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) on the protein and gene expression of IL-2 in the human T-cell line HUT-78 when stimulated with either 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) or phytohemagglutinin (PHA).\nNagaraj et al. (2004) IL-2 immune system Because of the serious toxicity of systemically administered IL-2 observed in clinical practice [17] it can be expected that local expression of IL-2 is less harmful to the patient than systemic administration to trigger the immune system.\nSule et al. (2001) IL-2 immune system IL-2 can now be produced in unlimited quantities by recombinant DNA technology and used therapeutically to modulate the immune system in a number of diseases.\nKawami et al. (1993) interleukin 2 immune systems To ascertain whether the tumor cells can regulate the host immune systems through the production of the cytokines or their receptors, we examined the expressions of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), tumor necrosis factor beta (TNF beta), interleukin 2 (IL-2) and interleukin 2 receptor alpha chain (IL-2R alpha) on the human cancer cell lines by Northern blot analysis.\nSaneto et al. (1987) IL-2 immune system Within the immune system, IL-2 biological action is dependent strictly on the expression of the IL-2 receptor.\nHersey et al. (1986) IL2 immune system Changes in cortisol levels may explain some effects on the immune system, such as depression of IL2 and immunoglobulin production in vitro, and the differences noted in clinical responses during the present study compared with those observed with interferon alfa-2b given by intravenous (IV) injection in 5-day cycles.\nAnderson and Sorenson (1994) IL-2 immune system IL-2 action and pharmacokinetics can be understood in the context of the effect IL-2 on high (alpha, beta, gamma trimer) vs intermediate (alpha, beta) vs low (beta only or alpha only) affinity IL-2 receptors on various cells of the immune system.\nMatsumoto et al. (2001) IL-2 immune systems Thus, the lesser IFNgamma production observed in patients' blood with high IL-12 p40 levels in response to BCG-CWS may reflect the production of p40 dimers or IL-23 instead of p70, or the presence of some unknown pathways to prohibit the interface between the innate and acquired immune systems.\nAttema et al. (2002) cytokine IL-2 immune system Controlled production of the cytokine IL-2 plays a key role in the mammalian immune system.\nCohen et al. (1997) IL-2 immune system Since IL-10 has been previously described as a direct inhibitor of Ag presentation and of IL-2 production, our finding that IL-2 is capable of inducing its own inhibitor demonstrates a feedback mechanism within the immune system that could limit ongoing T cell activation and possibly inflammation.\nSun et al. (2005) IL-2 immune system Production of IL-2 and IFN-gamma by CD4+ T lymphocytes is important for the maintenance of a functional immune system in infected individuals.\nWollmann et al. (1994) interleukin-2 immune systems To investigate the interaction between the neuroendocrine and immune systems in humans with uveitis, we measured serum levels of the predominant pineal hormone melatonin (MEL), prolactin (PRL) and interleukin-2 (IL-2).\nNagaraj et al. (2004) interleukin-2 immune system Human cytokine-induced killer cells have enhanced in vitro cytolytic activity via non-viral interleukin-2 gene transfer Modulation of the immune system by genetically modified immunological effector cells is of potential therapeutic value in the treatment of malignancies.\nBrod (2000) IL-2 immune system Autoimmunity is unregulated hyperimmunity to organ-specific proteins, inducing rapid turnover of antigen-specific T cells of the acquired immune system with ultimate exhaustion and loss of acquired immunity IL-2 and IFN-gamma production and proliferative decline, conforming to the limited capacity of clonal division (Hayflick phenonmenon).\nWilson et al. (1990) Interleukin 2 immune system Levels of Interleukin 2 (IL2), IL2 receptors (IL2R) and free radical scavengers were measured in 25 Graves' disease patients prior to and following an 8 week course of Carbimazole therapy in an attempt to understand the mechanism by which the drug acts on the immune system.\nEmilie et al. (1990) IL-2 immune system To document the in vivo interactions occurring between the immune system and HIV replicating cells, we analyzed using in situ hybridization the production of IL-1 beta, IL-6, IL-2, and INF-gamma in eight hyperplastic lymph nodes from HIV-1 infected patients.\nCrisp\ufffdn and Tsokos (2009) IL-2 immune system The regulation of IL-2 production is central to our understanding of the immune system.\nvan den Berg et al. (1998) IL-2 immune system CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that the functional effects of CsA in transplant recipients can be quantitatively determined and that the capacity of CD4+ T cells to produce IL-2 upon stimulation constitutes a functional parameter of CsA effects on the immune system.\nBelghiti et al. (1986) lymphokine immune system Genetic factors and a disregulation of the immune system with lymphokine production may be responsible for these renal changes.\nKahan (1985) lymphokine immune system Due to its relatively specific inhibition of lymphokine generation by T helper cells, the drug displays relatively high therapeutic efficacy for the immune system.\nPodtschaske et al. (2007) IL-2 immune system The multiple auto- and paracrine functions of IL-2 raise the question about the accurate execution of the IL-2 gene expression program which is essential for the function of the adaptive immune system and T cell homeostasis.\nGay\ufffd et al. (1991) lymphokine immune system There is growing evidence to suggest a regulatory role of IL-4 in the immune system affecting both proliferation and lymphokine production.\nDonskov (2007) IL-2 immune system First, which properties of the immune system are responsible for the dramatic tumor regression seen in some patients with mRCC following IL-2 administration?\nTakaishi et al. (1990) IL-2 immune system It is thought that the enhancement of IL-2 production by PBMCs and the decrease in the percentage of CD8+ cells (cytotoxic/suppressor cell) are associated with abnormalities in the immune system.\nGottlieb (1991) interleukin-2 immune system An immunomodulator, IMREG-1, derived from human leukocyte dialysates exerts a variety of effects on the cell-mediated immune system, including acceleration and amplification of delayed hypersensitivity to recall antigens, modulation of gamma-interferon production in response to antigen, and enhanced expression of the p55 portion of the receptor for interleukin-2 on CD4+ cells.\nGlaudemans et al. (2010) IL-2 immune system These results strongly indicate that CXCR3-dependent activation of mTORC1 directly links stimulation of the Th1 lymphocytes\ufffd immune system with the proliferative response of intimal cells in vascular remodelling: a process that is followed by expression of activation markers on T-cell surface such as the IL-2 receptor, CD25-CD122-CD132 heterotrimer [50].\nKazi et al. (1997) IL-2 immune system We concluded that beta-carotene increased the number of IL-2R+ T lymphocytes and CD4+ lymphocytes, which in turn may produce IL-2 only in patients with cancer who may already have some deficiency in their immune system.\nBrooks et al. (1990) lymphokine immune system The functional significance of segregating lymphokine production to unique T cell subsets is still being evaluated, but undoubtedly plays a key role in the regulatory mechanisms of the immune system.\nDobozin et al. (1986) interleukin-2 immune system A comprehensive evaluation of the cellular immune system (total T-cell, helper cell, suppressor cell, and natural killer cell numbers; in vitro interleukin-2 production, T-cell responses to mitogens and antigens, serum beta 2 microglobulin levels, and delayed hypersensitivity skin tests) was performed on 36 HTLV-III seronegative and 16 HTLV-III seropositive healthy homosexual men, 48 asymptomatic homosexual men with the chronic lymphadenopathy syndrome, 41 patients with AIDS, and 29 heterosexual controls without any known risk factors for AIDS.\nRothenberg et al. (1990) IL-2 immune system The ability to express the growth hormone IL-2 upon stimulation gives T lymphocytes one of their major effector functions in the immune system.\nXu et al. (2001) interleukin-2 immune system As an important cytokine of the immune system, interleukin-2 (IL-2) can induce the expression of various genes, one of which is the tumor necrosis factor-beta (TNF-beta).\nFaist et al. (1990) IL-2 CMI The in vitro test of CMI revealed that there was a higher LP capacity in PBMC's of PIndo (p less than 0.05); the postoperative profile of IL-2 synthesis was not statistically different between the groups.\n?yszkiewicz and Pajtasz-Piasecka (2002) interleukin 2 immune system [Contribution of interleukin 2 and interleukin 12 receptors in signal transduction during cell activation of the immune system].\nNiederkorn and Streilein (1986) lymphokine immune system Since immune privilege seems to be a physiologic property of the anterior chamber, it is suspected that local features within this site conspire to insure that antigens placed therein interact with the immune system in a manner that bypasses lymphokine production, thus allowing for the induction of ACAID and selective suppression of DTH.\nBasham et al. (2008) IL-2 immune system In the immune system, both STAT5A and STAT5B regulate IL-2 signaling, with a stronger contribution of STAT5B through regulation of both IL-2R?\nMarks (1989) interleukin-2 immune system Immunological effects including reductions in natural killer cell activity, superoxide and interleukin-2 production make osteopetrotic mutants potential models for studying the role of the immune system in osteoclast biology.\nUhlin et al. (2005) IL-2 immune system We analyzed the capacity of exogenous IL-2 and IL-15, which are physiologically produced by cells of the adaptive and innate immune system, respectively, to modulate proliferation, responsiveness to repeated stimulation and apoptotic programs triggered in specific CTL by either fully or partially agonistic peptide ligands.\nJaffe et al. (1988) IL-2 immune system Prostaglandins exert immunosuppressive effects at several steps on both afferent and efferent phases in the cell-mediated immune system: reduction of Ia expression in antigen-presenting cells, inhibition of IL-1 and IL-2 production, and activation of suppressor cells.\nRedman et al. (1994) IL-2 immune system Interleukin-1 (IL-1) plays a central role in the immune system, partly by stimulating the production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and other cytokines by lymphocytes.\nGroenewegen et al. (1985) lymphokine immune system In vivo MHC class II antigen expression by canine endothelial cells is therefore dependent on factors, probably the lymphokine gamma-interferon produced by the immune system, whose secretion is inhibited by cyclosporin A.\nAiuti and Mezzaroma (2006) IL-2 immune system Finally, an imbalance in the production of cytokines such as TNF, IL-2 and IL-7 may also be a crucial event for the induction of immune system failure.\nSharp and Koutedakis (1992) IL-2 immune system Acute exercise of varying severity and corresponding levels of long term competition and training have been found to affect various components of the immune system including lymphocyte subsets, immunoglobulin levels, the mononuclear phagocytic system, polymorphonuclear leukocytes and cytokines, especially IL-1, IL-2, IL-6 and TNF.\nFerenc\ufffdk and Stvrtinov\ufffd (1997) IL-2 immune system Several immunoregulatory cytokines, including IL-1, IL-2, IL-6, IFN-gama and TNF are produced not only in the immune system but in the neuroendocrine system as well.\nViallard et al. (2001) IL-2 immune system In this context, the simultaneous elevations of type 1 cytokines (IL-2 and IFN-gamma) and LIF production by the same cells may be an attempt by the immune system to limit the exacerbation of a type 2 dominant response.\nBhave and Carson (2009) IL-2 immune system The IL-21R shares the common receptor gamma-chain with IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15, is widely expressed on immune cells, and mediates a variety of effects on the immune system.",

        "raw_content": "Chris Bosh pulls off the Flop of the Year.\nIt's ironic really, seeing that Chris Bosh pulled of the one of the greatest flops in NBA History against the guy that is the most notorious in the league for drawing imaginary fouls. What comes around goes around, am I right? Seriously though, this is terrible. I can't believe the referees didn't catch that.\nLabels: Basketball, Brooklyn Nets, Chris Bosh, Flop, Miami Heat, NBA, Reggie Evans\nJordan Crawford ate Skittles in the middle of the game.\nSomethings just never change. Even after removing Andray Blatche, the President of the Knuckleheads and Javale McGee, the secretary of doing stupid things on the court, the effect they left on the Wizards remain in effect. I hope you enjoyed those tropical flavored Skittles, Jordan Crawford, because they didn't help your game very much. He scored only 3 points and went 1 of 5 from the field. John Wall must have wanted to get in on the candy too, as he went for 9 points on 3 of 12 shooting. The rainbow is the devil.\nLabels: Basketball, Comedy, Jordan Crawford, NBA, Philadelphia 76ers, Sixers, Skittles, Washington, Wizards\nJameer Nelson bounces passes his shot into the basket.\nI guess Orlando does possess some type of magical powers. It's too bad that in the only time it works, it didn't count. At least Kevin Garnett wasn't around to block your shot after the play.\nLabels: Basketball, Carmelo Anthony, Jameer Nelson, Knicks, Magic, NBA, New York, Orlando, Pass, Shot, Video\nThe Round Up - January 30th, 2013.\nUp-do: Michael Beasley must have taken my advice and stopped eating chicken tenders + fries before games. The man of many hair-dos came off the bench for a game-high 27 points on 12 of 20 shooting, 6 rebounds and 5 steals to end the Lakers' 3 game winning streak. The Lakers had a 13 point lead early the fourth quarter, but gave it up once Dwight Howard left the game after a shoulder injury. They gave up a 19-8 run to the Suns and remained winless on the road in 2013.\nNot-So-Fun Fact: Steve Nash had only 2 assists in this game, which ties for the fewest he has ever delivered in a game.\nMaybe if Kobe dunked this, he would have at least got his third. (Via: SB Nation)\nWhere is Kobe and what did you do with him? We now live in a world where Kobe rondos in transition. For shame.\nFROLO: Sorry Bynum, for the first time, your hair was not the best of the night. (Via: SB Nation)\nTiny Assassin: Tony Parker is holding it down for his Spurs in the absence of Tim Duncan. The French point guard had 22 points (9 of 10), 7 assists and 3 steals to take down the Charlotte Bobcats. This win in San Antonio is their 17th straight, which ties for the third longest streak in their franchise.\nEnergy Ball: In his first 9 minutes into the game, Nate Robinson came off the bench to score 14 points on 6 of 6 shooting for his total 24 points (9 of 11). He also handed out 4 assists, stole 3 basketballs and completed his first dunk since the 2010-2011 season in the victory over the Milwaukee Bucks.\nStacey King must be off the medication that helps keep his composure during Bulls games.\nRookie Watch: Anthony Davis went for 14 points (7 of 9), 7 rebounds, and 2 blocks in only 22 minutes of play against the Utah Jazz. The Utah would come out on top thanks to the Giant 2. Paul Millsap had 25 points and 10 rebounds. While Al Jefferson added 22 and 5.\nEat Your Words: After trash talking LeBron and the Heat up prior to the game, Reggie Evans would be the one that fails to back it up. Tied at 49 at halftime, the Heat came out of the third quarter to outscore the Nets, 36 to 14, and forced 8 turnovers. The Nets were so bad that Mario Chalmers was able to grab his own rebound on his ass. As you would have guessed, LeBron James's fingerprints were all over this game, he led his team with 24 points (10 of 18), 9 rebounds and 7 assists in the 20 point victory over the Brooklyn Nets.\nJoe Johnson did kill off the last remaining Boshasaurus in the loss.\nNo Defense Necessary: When two teams with highest pace in league, Houston Rockets (1) and Denver Nuggets (3) play against each other, defense will be non existent. Jeremy Lin led the Rockets with 22 points (8 of 15), and 5 assists. His majestic facial bearing partner, James Harden got 21 points on 6 of 13 shooting, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. However, the efforts of the two were not enough to trump Danilo Gallinari's 27 points (10 of 17) and the late 17-0 run they allowed Denver.\nExhibit A of the non-existent defense.\nJavale loves his Italian Food.\nBoards: Blake Griffin got his 19th double double of the season last night with his 26 points (11 of 17) and 13 rebounds in the win over the injury riddled Minnesota Timberwolves.\nSetting Records: Carmelo Anthony set a new Knicks franchise record with 20+ points in 30 straight games. Tyon Chandler dropped a team-high 21 points on 10 of 11 shooting, to go with his 7 blocks and 5 assists. For the Magic, J.J. Reddick has been hot off the bench lately, he had 29 points (9 of 14) in another loss for the Orlando Magic. More bad news, Glen Davis will be out for the season with a broken foot.\nWhat is better than Iman Shumpert's hi-top fade? Children with Shumpert wigs, of course. (Via: @netw3rk)\nFlocks: The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Toronto Raptors with help of their starting front court of Josh Smith, who went for 20 points (7 of 16), and 11 rebounds, as Al Horford chipped in for 22 points (10 of 15), 10 rebounds and 6 assists. There was a questionable no-call in this game that potentially lost the game for the Raptors. Down with 1 with 5 seconds left, after grabbing an offensive rebound off Alan Anderson's miss, DeMar DeRozan went back up for the win, but would miss the shot due to a foul that was unfortunately not called. The Raptors have now lost 10 games this season when tied or leading with 2 minutes left in the fourth. Maybe Rudy Gay can solve the problem.Or maybe the league can stop apologizing to the Raptors and do something about the refs.\nSwats: Avery Bradley will not allow Isiah Thomas to deliver his Pizzas.\nFancy: Ricky Rubio still can not throw a normal pass to his teammates.\nLabels: Basketball, Blake Griffin, Brooklyn Nets, Clippers, Dwyane Wade, Lakers, Lebron James, Los Angeles, Miami Heat, NBA, New York Knicks, Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, Rockets, San Antonio, Spurs, Tony Parker\nAccording to Kobe Bryant, if he was a point guard, he would be the best.\nWith the Lakers struggling to find consistent success in their season, Kobe Bryant has opted to be a facilitator in the past week to get his teammates going for the first time in his career. Not only has he dished out 10+ dimes in the last 3 games, he actually has less field goal attempts than assists in all three victories. While I do believe this sudden change in Kobe's demeanor benefits his team, there is something that just feels wrong with this \"New\" Kobe.\nFrankly, I think we can all agree that scoring Kobe is a cooler Kobe. If he shared the ball as much as he had in the past 3 games of this season, his career would have never been linked to Shaq drama (including a rap about tasting butts), Smush Parker stories and every single appealing thing about the Black Mamba would cease to exist.\nCan you imagine a world with a Kobe like that? I don't even want to live in that world.We have come to know Kobe as a man that strives for nothing but perfection. A man, wired completely different than others. Basketball was his obsession and all he wanted was to be the best. Some would say he was a maniac, as he works hours on hours in the gym, alone. Shutting the whole world out with the sound of the basketball swishing through the hoop. His accolades speak for themselves. He has won multiple titles by being the offensive mastermind that forgets his teammates' existence and will shoot over double teams. We groan as the ball is released, but cheers explode as we watch him make those all too familiar shots that were once deemed impossible. If he wasn't the scorer he is today, we would never have a Kobe that makes Matrix references and that is not okay.\nThis dude is the coolest. No one will ever have his supreme confidence and ability to answer questions with nonchalance. He didn't even bat an eyelash when he said that he would be the best point guard if he ever played that position.\nLabels: Basketball, Comedy, Kobe Bryant, Lakers, Los Angeles, NBA, Nike, Point Guard, Video\nReggie Evans: \"Heat's Lockout Season Title Means Nothing.\"\nReggie Evans is on his trolling game right now. When asked about playing the reigning champions, the Miami Heat tonight at the Barclays Center, Reggie completely dismisses their title, claiming that it means nothing in a shortened season.\n\"It doesn't prove nothing. That was a lockout season,\" Evans told the New York Daily News on Wednesday when asked if beating the defending champs would prove something to the rest of the NBA.\nOkay, while I cannot argue that a shortened season could have been a factor, a championship is still a championship. The road to get the title is just as difficult. What if the Clippers won last year when you were on the team, I doubt you would have taken your victory as lightly. Besides, this not what a man in your position should say. For a man that can only rebound the basketball and has bricks for hands (He literally can not put anything into the basket to save his life), you sure can talk. Too bad, no one will ever take you seriously, especially when you look like an Orc.\n\"Our team is defending the Miami Heat. If our team has to defend one person, LeBron isn't going to score nothing. LeBron is no different from Joe Johnson or Andray Blatche. No different,\" Evans told the Daily News. \"People need help (on defense). Some people don't need help. Everybody has to be double-teamed, it doesn't matter who you are. You just have to stop LeBron in transition.\nSo according to you, the best NBA player in the world is no different than a ball hogging All Star that never got out of the second round of the playoffs and a former member of the Washington Knuckleheads. Silly Reggie, don't you remember LeBron James and the Heat beating the Nets by 30 points in November and followed it with a 13 point win in December? Or did you hit your head on something?\nThis is nothing against Reggie, I just want to set the record straight. I hope LeBron didn't find out about what you said, because it would not be good for your team to play against a motivated LeBron.\nLabels: Basketball, Brooklyn Nets, Lebron James, Miami Heat, NBA, Reggie Evans, Title, Trolling\nA Fan is raising $1 Million dollars to get LeBron James to do the Dunk Contest.\nMark J. Terrill/AP Photo\nAbout a month ago, LeBron James said he will never compete in the dunk contest because of age and health concerns. He had publicly promised to do it back in 2009, but has never fulfilled his obligatory duty and left fans disappointed. Chris Thomas was one of those fans, and he has come up with an idea to get LeBron James into the Dunk Contest. Through Gofundme.com, Chris started an online campaign to raise a million dollars in an attempt to get the NBA Superstar to slam a couple of basketballs through the hoop in the most glorious event of the All Star weekend. The campaign is currently at a total of $3,218 dollars, please visit this link if you would like to donate. All proceeds are going into charity and in the case that LeBron backs out from the contest again, you will receive a full refund.\nLeBron, I hope you would consider this proposal regardless of the money raised ($3,000 is an impressive amount) and do this for the fans. You can't run away from it forever, it's destiny.\nLabels: Basketball, Charity, Dunk Contest, Heat, Lebron James, Miami, NBA\nJames Harden and Kris Humphries in a New Foot Locker Commercial.\nIt's great that Kris Humphries can still laugh at himself. Even though he made a terrible life changing decision that has made him one of the most hated men in the NBA. His 72-day marriage with a certain reality star did get him on this commercial. And since everyone will always remember him for the incident anyway (I mean you can never forget it, because Kanye just won't shut up), embracing your inner and outer douche bag is the probably right way to go about it.\nLabels: Basketball, Commercial, Foot Locker, James Harden, Kris Humphries, NBA, Shoes\nJarrett Jack Video Bombs Klay Thompson's Post Game Interview.\nOn the biggest night of his young career, where Klay Thompson goes off for a career high 32 points on 6 of 8 from the three and 7 rebounds. Jarrett Jack pulls a Chris Bosh in the sophomore gunner's post game interview to steal the spotlight in a familiar fashion. Just like Bosh, Jack puts up great numbers when he is needed to and leaves a huge impact on the game. The back up guard stepped up for 26 points (11 of 18) and 12 assists in place of the injured Stephen Curry in the victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is one of more under appreciated, core guys on their team and he just want some attention, even if it means pretend-fan girling over his teammate's performance.\nLabels: Basketball, Comedy, Golden State, Jarrett Jack, Klay Thompson, NBA, San Franciso, Stephen Curry, Video bomb, Warriors\nEvery single one of Kobe Bryant's reactions to bad calls by NBA Officials.\nKobe Bryant pulled out his entire repertoire of reactions on this miscall.\nLet's review all 6 (In order).\n1. Frustration ball pound\n2. Classic jump at the shock of the call.\n3. What did I do hands\n4. Kobe Frown, plus pursed lips combo\n5. Followed by the headshake in disagreement, utilized by every NBA player\n6. And finished with the iconic \"No-Way\" evil smirk.\nThis is a work of art on its own, beautiful execution and smooth transitions, 10/10. Thank you Basketball Gods, for giving us the gift of Kobe. Nobody does it better.\nLabels: Comedy, Face, Kobe Bryant, Lakers, Los Angeles, NBA, Reaction, Video\nStats Rundown + Short Recaps\nLights Out: In the absence of Stephen Curry, Andrew Bogut and Harrison Barnes, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers on 69 percent three point shooting, they were 11 of 16 from beyond the arc. Klay Thompson led the way with a career high 32 points (6 of 8 from three) and 7 rebounds. Jarrett Jack added 26 points and 12 assists. Unfortunately for Cleveland, their savior, Kyrie Irving played with a cold and was unable to drag his team to victory.\nBuck Wild: Brandon Jennings must have caught the All Star snub disease, because he could not miss tonight. After scoring only 4 points in the first quarter, Jennings went on a 16-0 run by himself in the second, knocking down a three in four straight possessions. He finished with a game-high 30 points (11 of 19), 2 rebounds and 6 assists. In spite of the 27 point loss, the Pistons were able to find a bright light in Andre Drummond. The rookie from UCONN had 18 points and 18 rebounds off the bench, making him the youngest to ever achieve this feat. Maybe Lawrence Frank will finally give him some quality minutes, I mean how can you not, after watching him grab a double double in 11 minutes.\nNew Formula: So apparently if Kobe passes the basketball, the Lakers will win whether they play defense or not. According to a small sample size of 3 games, which the Lakers have won, when Kobe has 10+ assists, the team is undefeated. Okay, enough of the sarcasm. This is Kobe's first time since 2009 to have 3 straight 10+ assists games. He has combined for 39 assists over this period, which is the most he has had in a 3 game stretch. Just so you know, we now live in a world where Steve Nash grabs more rebounds than Dwight Howard, Dwight Howard scores more points than Kobe and Kobe hands out more dimes than Nash. It's confusing, I know. Eric Gordon had a great game, he got 25 points on 7 of 12 shooting, and 6 of 8 from the three in the Hornets' (Pelicans) 30th loss of the season.\nDon't Call it a Comeback: Down 21 points in the third quarter, the Portland Trail Blazers managed to put together a late run to comeback for the victory against the Dallas Mavericks. Dirk Nowitzski had his best game of the season last night with 26 points (11 of 21), 4 rebounds and 4 assists. However, he would get shown up by the double headed dragon of Portland. LaMarcus Aldridge had 29 points (12 of 20), 13 rebounds and two of the most important shots in the game, while J.J Hickson went for 26 points and 15 rebounds. The last 30 seconds of this game is absolutely bonkers. Words can not describe how crazy it was, so it is better if you just watch it below.\nLabels: Basketball, Dwight Howard, Kobe Bryant, Lakers, LaMarcus Aldridge, Los Angeles, Mavericks, Milwaukee Bucks, NBA, New Orleans Hornets, Pistons, Portland, Trail Blazers\nMichael Beasley ate chicken and fries before basketball games.\nSome players swear by never eating before games and if they do, it will usually be a light snack. But for a few specific individuals, they will have pizza right before the game and maybe go off for 81 points against the Toronto Raptors. Not everyone is the same, in Michael Beasley' case, we might have found why he has not played up to his expectations and it just so happens to be related to food.\nFrom the Hang Time Blog:\nAs Michael Beasley slammed a chicken tenders basket at his locker about 90 minutes before his Phoenix Suns were to face the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday, he seemed more pleased with the savory french fries than digging up the past yet again.\n\u201cThese fries are good, man,\u201d Beasley said between shoveling handfuls of the greasy goodness into his mouth.\nHave you ever played basketball after eating greasy food? How can you play at your best with your stomach feeling bloated, mouth filled with grease residue and possible constipation? You can't and neither can the former number 2 overall pick.\nAfter rifling through the chicken finger basket and dressing for the game while rapping out loud the inaudible lyrics streaming through his headphones, Beasley managed 12 points on 4-for-10 shooting and four rebounds. He recorded a team-worst minus-17 in 20 minutes and the Suns lost for the 30th time in 45 games.\nStick with the simple carbs, man. I am sure the Suns nutritionist have super foods that can help you perform better, after all this organization did extend Steve Nash's health and revived Grant Hill's career.\nLabels: Basketball, Food, Michael Beasley, NBA, Phoenix, Suns\nGlen Davis uses the power of words to will his hook shot into the basket.\nThis is why every single NBA game should be mic'd up. All games should give you an option to choose between the regular broadcast with color commentary and an all-access feature that allows you to hear what goes on in the game. It would be great to hear what some of these guys say to each other in games. We can get in on the trash talking, funny stories and maybe even rookies asking veterans how to do their laundry. Who knows? So please David Stern, let us pay more money to watch our favorite sport.\nLabels: Basketball, Big Baby, Brooklyn, Comedy, Glen Davis, NBA, Nets, Orlando, Sports, Video\nKobe Bryant doesn't find the New Orleans Pelicans intimidating.\nAre we really going to have to do this again? Take my advice, Kobe and do some research on the Pelicans. Besides, who are you to say that Pelicans are not scary, your team name is Lakers for God's sake. What the hell is that? LA doesn't even have lakes. And if there were any, Pelicans would live there and do things like this.\nYea, keep laughing. Pelicans are totally not frightening and incapable of eating snakes. Oh, wait they have actually been known to eat snakes, and also happen to be a protective symbol against snakes in Ancient Egypt. What do you say now, Black Mamba.\nLabels: Basketball, Dwight Howard, Hornets, Kobe Bryant, Lakers, Los Angeles, NBA, New Orleans, Pelicans, Video\nGlen Davis intimately catches Gerald Wallace to safety.\nThe NBA needs more of this. Enough of the hard fouls on players in mid-air, they are dangerous and could potentially end careers. Knocking someone down in transition to force them to shoot free throws, gives the victim of the foul, virtually no time to brace their fall. Players should care for each other regardless of the city sewed on their jerseys. Everyone should be more like Glen Davis and catch your opponents to safety. Of course, no one is really as strong as Glen, who managed to catch Gerald Wallace running at full speed without much effort, but the least you can do is to slow the fall.\nWhen a Big Baby saves a Human crash dummy in an intimate moment, Marvin Gaye is always necessary.\nLabels: Basketball, Big Baby, Brooklyn, Gerald Wallace, Glen Davis, Magic, Marvin Gaye, Music, NBA, Nets, Orlando\nAustralian Warrior: In his first game back from his ankle injury, Andrew Bogut dropped 12 points (6 of 8), and grabbed 8 rebounds in 24 minutes of play. David Lee led the Warriors with 21 points, 12 rebounds and 7 assists. Bad news for the Warriors, Stephen Curry tweaked his ankle again, it doesn't seem to be serious, but a recurring injury does raise concerns. A unlikely hero appeared for the Raptors, Aaron Gray, the Raptors' own Andrew Bogut scored a career high 22 points on 9 of 12 shooting, and took down 10 boards. However his efforts would be wasted, as the Warriors would win. They outscored Toronto 62 to 34 in the paint, which basically never happens.\nClose One: With the Indiana Pacers down 2 in the last 40 seconds against the Denver Nuggets, David West scored a huge basket off of his offensive rebound to tie the game up at 101 a piece. Down the floor, Danilo Gallinari, who scored a game high 27 points (9 of 16) would get blocked by Paul George on his ill-advised jump shot, to give the ball back to the Pacers. Unfortunately, Indiana came out of their time out without a play, giving Paul George the hard task of scoring against Andre Iguodala, one of the best perimeter defenders in the league. As you would have guessed, things would start to go downhill for the man with two first names, as he gets ball stolen by AI and later fouls him on a lob attempt, that rewarded his opponent with the game winning free throw.\nBlack Panther: Looks like Deron Williams has finally found his shooting touch. In the 20 point blowout win over the Orlando Magic, the point guard went for 20 points on 8 of 12 shooting, and 9 assists in 34 minutes of playing time. The Nets might have won, but Orlando would get the last laugh.\nAndray Blatche will always be funny.\nPizza Guy: Isiah Thomas stays representing for the little guys. He had 22 points (9 of 16), 4 rebounds, 7 assists and the biggest basket of them all.\nBlast-Off: The Houston Rockets defeated the Utah Jazz 125 to 80 at Salt Lake City. James Harden had 25 points (8 of 15), 3 rebounds and 3 assists to hand the Jazz the biggest loss at home in franchise history. Before this happened, they have never lost by more than 33 in their turf. Omer Asik singlehandedly out-rebounded the entire Utah starting squad with 19 boards in the win.\nThe Beard takes flight.\nOso: Marc Gasol is still pretty furious about getting snubbed in the All Star votes, so he decided to vent his anger against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Spaniard went off for 27 points (10 of 15), 7 rebounds, 7 assists and a block on Nick Young in the last few seconds of the game to seal the win. Rudy Gay added 26 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. Jerryd Bayless filled in for Mike Conley with 21 points and 9 assists. Evan Turner of the Sixers had a pretty good game as well, he got 27 points on 12 of 18 shooting and 7 assists in the loss.\nJoakim Woah: The Bulls' All Star center has gone for 15+ rebounds in 4 straight games, something no Bull has done since Rodman in 1998. He grabbed 18 last night to go with his 13 points, 7 assists and 5 blocks in the win against the Charlotte Bobcats.\nLaunch Failed: Derrick Favors will not allow the Greg Smith shuttle to reach its desired destination.\nBoom: Carlos Boozer, the NBA's most athletic looking, unathletic guy still has a little hop in his step.

For those of you, who are out of the loop on the whole Cheerios fiasco between Kevin Garnett and Melo, I will summarize it for you in a sentence. Basically, a few weeks ago, during the first Celtics vs, Knicks game of the season, Kevin Garnett reportedly said Melo's wife, Lala tasted like Honey Nut Cheerios and Melo didn't take it too well. Since then, the internet has kept relevant, making a non issue into a thing that will forever haunt Carmelo for the rest of his NBA career. Taking advantage of this known fact, Philadelphia 76ers fans decided to chant the popular General Mills cereal on Saturday in an attempt to get the Knick to miss his free throws. It didn't work, but Melo did get a little chuckle from it.\nKeep it classy Philly fans, you are not making any friends in this league by chanting a possible misquote reported on Twitter or cheering for injuries to other players.\nLabels: Basketball, Carmelo Anthony, Fans, Honey Nut Cheerios, Internet, Jrue Holiday, Knicks, NBA, New York, Philadelphia 76ers, Sixers, Twitter, Video\nLeBron James and the Miami Heat visits the White House.\nWhen a NBA team wins a Championship, they get invited to the White House to meet the President.

I am not sure what that shirt is made out of, it could possibly be some advanced synthetic material that can conform into some type of armor that will protect him from unexpected attackers. Or it could be a tear away aluminum foil sheet that he can bake cookies with, I don't know. The shirt is retailed originally at \u20ac400 from Neil Barrett, it is on sale now for \u20ac200, which is approximately $270 US dollars.

(Via: @jose3030)\nMissing Point: The Boston Celtics defeated the Miami Heat in double overtime without Rondo, who is out for the season with a torn ACL. Apparently, none of the Celtic players knew about it until the end of the game. Paul Pierce led the charge with his 7th career triple double of 17 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists. Kevin Garnett added 24 points on 10 of 19 shooting, 11 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks at the TD Garden. LeBron James had 34 points (14 of 31), 16 rebounds, 7 assists and a clutch three pointer in regulation to force the first overtime. His sidekick, Dwyane Wade was rendered useless for the final 16 minutes of this game, as he failed to register a single point in the game's most important minutes.\nThree Ball: J.J Redick was among a few players that were on fire from behind the arc last night. The Duke product dropped a career high tying 31 points on 8 of 11 threes. However, Brandon Knight's 31 points on 12 of 16 shooting would prevail in the battle, bringing the Detroit Pistons the victory against the Orlando Magic, who are now on a 5 game losing streak.\nRyan Anderson didn't do too bad himself, hitting 7 of his 13 threes for a game-high 22 points. He attempted nothing but threes in this game. Meanwhile for the Memphis Grizzlies, Zach Randolph recorded his 28th double-double of the season (20 points and 13 rebounds), the most in this NBA season in the loss to the New Orleans Hornets.\nHawk Hunter:While we are still on the subject of threes, Carmelo Anthony lit up the entire Atlanta squad by himself. Going off for 42 points on 15 of 28 shooting, a career high 9 of 12 from the three, and 5 rebounds in the win against the Hawks. Melo has tied the Knicks record for the most consecutive 20 point games with his 29th straight. Despite Atlanta outscoring the Knicks 50 to 22 in the paint, the Hawks just could not stop the Knicks from the outside. Allowing their opponent to shoot 60 percent from downtown is not a good sign. If there was a good sign for ATL, it would be Jeff Teague, who has developed into a solid scoring point guard in this seaon. He got 27 points (9 of 15), 5 rebounds, and 6 assists to give you a glimpse of his future.\nHere is Melo's 42 point game summed up in less than 2 minutes.\nChange Up: Kobe Bryant is ridiculous, he went off for 21 points (8 of 12), 9 rebounds and 14 assists to show off his versatility. This certainly doesn't solve all of LA's problems, but it is a start. As usual Kevin Durant had another 35 point game for Oklahoma City Thunder, however the lack of help from Russell Westbrook, who shot 6 of 22 from the field at the Staples Center, gave the Thunder, their 11th loss of the season.\nTrickery: Tony Wroten doesn't need to look when he passes.\nQuick Step: Blake Griffin has it.\nBoshasaurus: Jeff Green is the asteroid that caused the extinction of Dinosaurs.\nLabels: Basketball, Blake Griffin, Boston Celtics, Clippers, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Lakers, Lebron James, Los Angeles, Miami Heat, NBA, New York Knicks, Oklahoma City, Rajon Rondo, Russell Westbrook, Thunder\nMetta World Peace learns how to make friends from children.\nUsing innocent children to deliver subtle jabs at Kobe, I like it.

Smith and Jason Kidd failed to register a single point in this game.

The Gold and Purple was always successful because they have mastered this formula. It's easy, they put great players together and let them go to work. On the surface, it would seem like things would fall into place on their own, but Championships are not won by just purchasing multiple All Star players. It obviously takes more than that, and what better example of this, than the 2012-2013 Lakers. This team, built over the summer, put four future hall of famers together, all playing for a common goal. Expectations were high, and the Championship was supposed to be a sure-win. But after three months, those odds are looking bleak. The Lakers have only 39 more games left in their schedule, sitting at a record of 18-25, playoffs might even be out of the question. Evidently, this team has more than just problems on the court, and according to Dwight Howard, the negativity among teammates, fans and media is one of the issues. Coincidentally, he knows how to fix them as well.\n\"I'm just talking about negativity in general,\" Howard said. \"That's like a dark cloud, and the more you feed into the negativity, the bigger it gets. So, we have to change that and we have to believe. For all the fans and everybody who support the Lakers, believe. Yes, we're struggling. Yes, it's not the best time to be a Laker fan or a Laker player, but we will get out of it. There's a rainbow on the other end. We just got to make sure we get to it. I don't know if we got to eat some more Skittles or whatever it may be, but we got to find a way.\"\nYep, the problem with the Lakers was just that they weren't eating Skittles before basketball games and not totally because of their terrible defense.

Not only was he given a chance to shoot from half court to win $75,000, he actually made the basket. On top of all of that, he won a hug from the best basketball player in the world from his favorite team. There is no greater moment for a NBA fan than winning a large sum of money and sharing that glorious moment with your beloved athlete. While I am not sure why he went with the unconventional hook shot, instead of the regular heave or underrated granny shot (so underrated), it worked and everyone is happy. Well, except for that guy in Atlanta, who landed a more difficult task of getting the ball stuck on the rim from half court and only got to fill his pockets with $5,000 dollars.\nCongratulations Michael, you were lucky that Russell Westbrook wasn't around to block your shot like he did with the Denver Nuggets mascot, because that would be a real shame.\nLabels: Basketball, Fan, Half Court, Heat, Lebron James, Miami, Money, NBA, Prizes, Russell Westbrook, Shot, Video, Wade\nNot a great slate of basketball last night, of the 11 games played, 8 were blow outs and they weren't even the fun kind, that is unless you are a fan of the winning team.\nRocket Fuel: James Harden blasted off for 30 points (8 of 15 shooting), 4 rebounds and 8 assists in the Rockets' 3rd win in their last 10 games.

In the second quarter, LeBron and Wade combined for 26 of the Heat's 30 points in the period to outscore Pistons' 20. LeBron finished with 23 points (9 of 14), 7 rebounds and 7 assists, while Dwyane traveled back in time to 2006. Putting up 29 points on 12 of 20 shooting, 4 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals in the win. Shout out to Greg Monroe for scoring 31 points (12-17) and grabbing 12 boards to keep the Pistons within 25 points against the reigning champions.\nBoards: Dwight Howard actually tried today and got himself 17 points (8 of 12) and 13 rebounds. Maybe it is a good idea to stop faking your injury. In other Laker news, Kobe Bryant, for the 4th time in his career, played 30+ minutes and had more assists (14) than field goal attempts (10).

The Celtics are now on a six game losing streak.\nSkewered Buck: Despite the Milwaukee Bucks shooting 14 of 28 (50%) from the three and Ersan Illyasova going off for 30 points on 11 of 21 shooting and 7 rebounds.

The focus was not on the actual game itself, but rather on what was said during it. According to unknown sources, it was reported that notorious trash talker, Kevin Garnett said to the face of Carmelo Anthony that Lala (Melo's wife) tasted like honey nut cheerios. Whether this actually happened or not, nobody knows except for the two, however something was said by KG that did cause Melo to not only go into the Boston locker room post game to confront Garnett and also made him wait outside of the Celtics team bus to \"talk.\" Nothing really happened, Carmelo did get suspended for a game and as part of the process, the internet exploded with terrible cereal jokes.\nWhen something gets on the internet, it stays forever. So of course when the Knicks visited the TD Garden yesterday to play the Celtics, the fans of the green decided to get creative and make Cheerios signs in an attempt to throw off Melo. Unfortunately their hard work would go to waste, as the security confiscated any Cheerios-related displays to ruin the fun.\nThey didn't stop this bro though, he apparently was able to sneak it in.\nNice hat, bro.\nLabels: Basketball, Boston, Carmelo Anthony, Celtics, Honey Nut Cheerios, Kevin Garnett, Knicks, Lala Vasquez, NBA, New York, Signs\nKenny Smith and the TNT Crew clowned Charles Barkley in the halftime show.\nAin't No Shame in My Game.\nIf you haven't been following Thursday NBA basketball on TNT lately, let me fill you in on what you missed out.

I was persuaded of the mascot opportunities and countless of YouTube videos that featured these vicious aquatic birds, which I strongly recommend you to check out before criticizing the name. You will be surprised.\nThe logo itself turned out pretty well, while I prefer their current unique color scheme of Creole Blue, Dark Purple. Mardi Gras Gold and White. The Blue, Red and Gold is alright, but it has already been done by the Cleveland Cavaliers, so that's a little disappointing. Here are the alternate logos and their descriptions.\nThis is some information on the colors chosen:\nOkay, I get the why they chose blue and gold, but what is up with description of red. \"It also represents the legend of the mother pelican pricking her own breast to feed her young in times of need, doing whatever it takes to endure.\" What is this?

They won a close game! Up by double digits late in the game, the Raptors did Raptor-y things that allowed the Magic to crawl back from the deficit to tie the game with 20 seconds left on the game clock. Normally, this would go into overtime, where Toronto will crumble with a familiarity that we are accustomed to seeing and lose another hard fought battle, but DeMar DeRozan would not let it happen. The shooting guard scored 14 of his 22 points (10 of 17) in the 4th quarter, including this buzzer beating basket to win the game.\nDemar DeRozan also did this to the Magic.\nShout Out: To Nikola Vucevic, who led Orlando with a team high 19 points on 8 of 14 shooting and 14 rebounds.\nNew York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics: The Knicks finally snapped their 13 game losing streak at the TD Garden, where they haven't won since November, 2006. Carmelo Anthony had a game-high 28 points on an inefficient 11 of 28 shooting, 9 rebounds and 3 assists. This is Melo's 27th straight 20+ points game, moving him past Amar'e Stoudemire for the third longest streak in Knicks' history. On the other side, Rajon Rondo got his 27th career triple double, it is the 20th on national TV and the 4th one this season. His 23 points, 10 boards and 11 dimes ties him with Bill Russell for the 4th most triple doubles in Celtics History. Paul Pierce had a great first half, scoring 19 of his 22 points, but he would go without hitting a single field goal in the second. To make things even stranger for the Knick slayer, in the final two critical possessions of the game, Pierce turns the ball over twice, basically losing the game for his team. The Boston struggle continues. (Via: @cjzero)\nLos Angeles Clippers vs. Phoenix Suns: Chris Paul was injured, the Clippers played awful and the Phoenix Suns took advantage.

I don't know if it is even possible. Whatever, if Jamal Crawford says he has done it before, I would believe him. Look at what he did to Rudy Gay here. It is obvious Crawford possesses one of the best handles in the league, and that he probably worked countless hours, relentlessly perfecting his craft, but guess what? He has never practiced his dribbling ever. Not once.\nCrawford's crossover is largely a function of quickness, deception and crafty ballhandling. Ambidextrous since infancy, he can fake out defenders going to his left or his right, though he has found that teams often shade him as if he prefers going to his right.\nGrowing up, Crawford would dribble to the mall. He would dribble to the movies. If anyone stepped in his way, Crawford would make a move and keep going, not saying a word.\nYou might be surprised to know that Crawford never practices his crossover \u2014 or his dribbling, for that matter.\n\"It sounds crazy, right?\" he said. \"But I'm being dead honest. I just read what the defender does. And I think that's why it looks the way it does; it's different than anybody else's because it's not like I hit a cone or hit a spot and then did a move. It's along the lines of what the defender is doing.\"\nThis GUY. Just earlier in the summer, Jamal claimed to have practiced shooting for the first time in his 13th year in the NBA and now you are telling he doesn't practice his dribbling either?

After acquiring two All Stars over the summer to join forces with another pair of All Stars, the Lakers were sure favorites to win the Championship. Fast forward 3 months later, they are 17-25, riddled with injuries, players are unhappy and no one knows what to do. It's simple just to say their issues are dependent on defense because they are ranked 20th in the league in defensive rating, allowing an average of 107 points a game to their opponents, but there are definitely problems that goes beyond their struggles on the court.

The 13 year old had 31 points on a rare 11 of 27 shooting night, where he was cold from the three, hitting only 3 of his 14 attempts. He also had 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and a shimmy on his knees to rub it in the face of Westbrook.\nBad Russ had the worst night of his life, going for only 10 points (3 of 16), 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Kevin Durant however, picked up the slack with 33 points (10 of 17), 5 boards and 9 dimes in the loss.\nNote: The Warriors are the only team that has defeated the Heat, Clippers and Thunder, so maybe they could make another miraculous run in the playoffs.\nCarl Landry's legs folded at the sight of an incoming Kevin Durant and I don't blame them.\nFeathers: Josh Smith has longed for a night where he actually scores the basketball with efficiency. His dreams came true today against the Bobcats, he had 30 points (15 of 24), 13 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 blocks in the win because the Bobcats are the Bobcats. The only reason that this wasn't a blowout, was due to Ramon Sessions dropping 27 points to keep the game closer than it really should be.\nOh Canada: The Toronto Raptors did it again, after building a 15 point lead in between the third quarter, they blew it again and allowed the Miami Heat to comeback for the win in overtime. Jose Calderon led Toronto with 17 points from 5 of 6 three point shooting. While LeBron James grabbed his second triple double of the season with 31 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists. Dwyane Wade chipped in another 35 points on 13 of 19 shooting and 7 assists to put the Raptors into extinction.\nDon't call it a Comeback: Trailing by 17 early in the third quarter, the Chicago Bulls rallied 28 points in the 4th to outscore Detroit's 14 to take the W at home. Joakim Noah was huge late in this game, saving the ball from going out of bounds and into the hands of Marco Bellinelli, who drew a three point play to win the game.\nReplacement: Filling in for the injured Tim Duncan, Tiago Splitter went 10 of 11 from the field for 25 points and 7 rebounds in the victory over the New Orleans Hornets.

He does in fact have music videos, if you call him rapping in a black drop, half naked, a video. You will find Lou rapping about the common themes, culturalized by modern hip-hop. So if you are into NBA players talking about money and getting women, you can give him a listen.\nLabels: Atlanta, Basketball, Hawks, Ivan Johnson, Jeff Teague, Josh Smith, Lou Williams, Music, NBA, Rappers, Rapping, Twitter\nGlen \"Big Baby\" Davis Wants His Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Now.\nGlen Davis doesn't kid around when it comes to food. He might be one of the goofiest guys in the NBA, but you don't ever want to tick him off by not preparing the sandwiches he requested for. If you want to live, you will have to sacrifice a few of your groceries. Legend has it that every day, a giant baby will rise from his slumber and request food from the good citizens of Orlandogard. Citizens are asked to prepare a different meal 12 times a day and if they fail to comply to his demands, men will be lost.\nFEED HIM. FEED HIM NOW BEFORE HE RAMPAGES THROUGH YOUR VILLAGE AND EAT YOUR CHILDREN.\nLabels: Basketball, Big Baby, Comedy, Food, Glen Davis, Jelly, Magic, NBA, Orlando, Peanut butter, Sandwiches, Story, Video\nCaron Butler spikes Serge Ibaka's shot into the face of a NBA official.\nThis is the season of the NBA referees, you guys. I am telling you, in the history of NBA, there has not been so many referee related incidents. Earlier this season we had an official caught secretly working for the Miami Heat, then another one blocking free throw shots, one stalling games on national TV and one that danced Gangnam Style with a mascot. Finally, we have an innocent official getting a surprise from Caron Butler. I hope David Stern calls Derek Richardson (victim) tomorrow and give him a flop warning for that, because flinches resulting from actual hits can't put you on the floor. That is unless Caron Butler possesses an advanced, state of the art, biologically engineered arm that can send a man through the crust of the Earth and deep into the mantle. But that's probably impossible, so the only reasonable explanation is that, there must be something in the water of the LA Clippers facility that makes everyone exaggerate their body movements. In that case, I would like advise against Blake Griffin from drinking that water, he is way too hopped up on that stuff.\nLabels: Blake Griffin, Caron Butler, Chris Paul, Clippers, Comedy, Kevin Durant, Los Angeles, NBA, Official, OKC, Oklahoma City, Referee, Russell Westbrook, Serge Ibaka, Thunder\nCharles Barkley doesn't know how to tie his own tie.\nJust to clarify, Charles Barkley is a 49 year old, former NBA All Star that apparently has no idea how to put his tie together.\nI guess when you are knee-deep in money, you don't need to know how to do the essential things in life, because you can always get someone to do it for you. I, myself, am not a tie tying expert either, but I do believe that was a half windsor, right? I have only done my tie once and avoided doing it again by leaving it in the knot. Please don't tell me that I am the only one that does this. It is not weird.\nLabels: Basketball, Charles Barkley, Comedy, Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, NBA, Philadelphia 76ers, San Antonio, Sixers, Spurs, Suit, Tie, TNT\nThe Round Up - January 22nd, 2013.\nThe first half of the 2012-2013 NBA season is officially over, and if the second half resembles anything like the first, the postseason will be insane.\nMasked Man: Kyrie Irving has been nothing but incredible for the Cleveland Cavaliers. For a guy stuck with a horrible cast, he has managed to repeatedly drag his team to victory. He went for a career high 19 points in the first quarter, to finish with a game-high 40 points on 16 of 24 shooting, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals in the victory over the Boston Celtics. After starting the new year with a 6 game winning streak, Boston has fallen into a 4 game losing streak as of late.\nSpeaking of the Celtics, this Rajon Rondo assists stat padding is getting out of control. He is even going out of his way to help his opponents for assists. Someone needs to tell him, that basketball doesn't work like that.\nGunning: Ersan Illyasova is still occasionally able to fill up the stat sheet, the Turkish man had 27 points (10 of 17), 16 rebounds (7 Offensive), 2 assists and 3 steals. Brandon Jennings dropped 25 points (8 of 17), 7 dimes and 3 steals in the win against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers allowed the Bucks to shoot 52 percent from the field, no wonder they lost even after three of their players scored 20+ points. Evan Turner led the team with 23 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists. Spencer Hawes had 21 and 12. Lastly, Nick Young came off the bench for 20 points and a dunk to put the NBA leader in blocks, Larry Sanders to shame.\nYou can't always get them all, Larry.\nAutomatic: In his first start of the season, J.J Redick went off for 26 points on 9 of 10 shooting, including 5 of 6 from the three in the victory over the Detroit Pistons. His teammate, Jameer Nelson added 14 points and 9 assists to pass Penny Hardaway for 6th place in the Magic all time scoring list.\nBest of the West: Kevin Durant and his Oklahoma City Thunder took down the Chris Paul-less Clippers last night, with a 32 point (12 of 19), 5 of 6 three point shooting, 7 rebound and 7 assist performance from the potential MVP candidate. His spontaneous partner in crime, Russell Westbrook chipped in 26 points on 9 of 19 shooting, 4 rebounds and 6 assists. As for the Clippers, everyone except Blake Griffin, who had 31 points (11 of 19), 11 rebounds and 5 assists, failed to show up in the loss last night.\nRandom Notes: Serge Ibaka likes to play defense with his face and Blake Griffin should really leave the passing to Chris Paul.\nReincarnation: Just when Lamar Odom was starting to get a hang of this NBA thing, Kevin Durant flies in and just shatters every piece of Odom's confidence.\nBlock to Block: Avery Bradley will not allow free dunks in transition, Dion Waiters.\nOH-EM-GEE: Kevin Garnett just saw his life pass before his eyes.\nLabels: Basketball, Blake Griffin, Chris Paul, Clippers, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Los Angeles, Magic, Milwaukee Bucks, NBA, Oklahoma City, Orlando, Philadelphia 76ers, Russell Westbrook, Thunder",

        "raw_content": "Review: America's First Daughter by Stephanie Dray & Laura Kamoie\nLinks: Authors \u2022 Goodreads \u2022 Amazon\nI loved this! Historical fiction has always been one of my favorite genres particularly when it's about someone/something I don't know too much about. What most impressed me was how much detail went into AMERICA'S FIRST DAUGHTER. This book followed Thomas Jefferson's daughter, Patsy, for her entire life. Of course even in 600 pages that isn't enough to cover every important moment, but I still felt I learned a lot about both Patsy and her father. Thomas Jefferson has always been a fascinating figure to me and I liked getting to see this more intimate side of him. Patsy and her father had an incredible relationship and she was present for some of the most important moments in history.\nPatsy was born in Virginia and eventually followed her father from Monticello to Paris to the White House. After her mother died, Patsy became the one her father confided in and relied on. It truly makes you wonder what exactly her impact was on our nation's history. The author's utilized letters and journals to provide as much accuracy as they could to this story of Patsy Jefferson. They were fairly liberal with their creation of her relationship with William Short and relied quite heavily on the fact that Thomas Jefferson may have had a serious relationship with Sally Hemmings. Still, these are rumors that many feel have substance and it was interesting to see how these situations affected Patsy and shaped her life. I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for Patsy to maintain her strength and composure when her father was such a public figure. She did her best to protect him and seemed to be one of his only confidants.\nThomas Jefferson is one of our most well-known presidents and shapers of our nation. While we do get to see a more personal side of this legendary man, what I most liked about this book was learning about Patsy's life and how her father's actions shaped her own life. What a life it was. Patsy had some incredible adventures and experiences early in life, but unfortunately married a man who struggled with drinking and bad temper. It was awful to see how much Patsy and her father struggled at the end.\nAMERICA'S FIRST DAUGHTER is a lengthy read and packed full of information. The authors do discuss what liberties they took at the end and I also did some of my own research on Patsy and her family after I finished reading. There are so many \"hidden figures\" in our nation's history and I am excited to read Dray and Kamoie's next book on Alexander Hamilton's wife, Eliza. In the early days of the United States women are often left in the background, yet they often made such a significant impact. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in historical fiction.\nLabels: 4.5 stars, America's First Daughter, Book Review, Historical Fiction, History, Laura Kamoie, Stephanie Dray",

        "raw_content": "What to do when donors become tainted?\nPaul Dunn, an associate professor in the faculty of business at Brock University, wrote an interesting story in The Globe and Mail about how the BP Sea Otter Habitat has just opened \u2013 and faces an ethical dilemma\u2026\nBP\u2019s reputation has been severely damaged as a result of the oil disaster and its inability to curtail the growing environmental damage.\nMeanwhile, at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, Calif., the remodelled BP Sea Otter Habitat opened last week. Should a sea otter habitat be associated with a polluter that is causing enormous harm to the aquatic wildlife in the Gulf of Mexico?\nThis is not an unusual dilemma. Charities, hospitals, universities and other non-profits occasionally face the ethical challenge of what to do when one of their donors becomes tainted.\nOne option is to return the donation and delete the honour bestowed on the benefactor. The day after David Radler pleaded guilty to committing fraud in the Hollinger case, Queen\u2019s University in Kingston announced that it would be returning his $1-million gift and deleting his name from a hallway in the business school. Israel\u2019s University of Haifa also returned a $75,000 donation that Mr. Radler had made to its business school.\nAnother strategy is to do nothing. The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto continues to honour Conrad Black and his family for their donation. A hallway in the hospital still bears the \u201cBlack Wing\u201d name.\nBP has been a generous supporter of cultural activities in the Los Angeles area. It has supported the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Walt Disney Concert Hall and a local public television station. Should these institutions return the donations and delete BP\u2019s name, or should they do nothing?\nIn its press release at the time, Queen\u2019s University said, \u201cEthics and corporate social responsibility are a cornerstone of good business practice, and we take them very seriously at Queen\u2019s.\u201d Clear enough. But an environmental disaster \u2013 awful as it is \u2013 may not necessarily be incompatible with the goals of an art gallery or concert hall. They may legitimately opt to do nothing.\nBut, what about the Aquarium? On the surface, oil pollution that is killing the aquatic wildlife along the coast of Louisiana is inconsistent with a sea otter habitat designed to protect a threatened species. According to the Aquarium, \u201cCalifornia\u2019s sea otters are concentrated in a relatively small area, and a major oil spill off the central coast could wipe out the entire population.\u201d Furthermore, BP has a history of accidents, from an oil refinery explosion in Texas in 2005, to an Alaskan crude oil leak in 2006 in its Prudhoe Bay pipeline.\nSo, should the Aquarium delete BP\u2019s name?\nThe difference between the Radler donations and the BP donations is that David Radler admitted he intentionally committed a fraud that cheated the shareholders of Hollinger. From all the evidence currently available, it appears the BP disaster is a horrendous accident. BP did not intentionally set out to pollute the Gulf of Mexico. As such, the Aquarium has no ethical obligation to return the donation and delete BP\u2019s name from the sea otter habitat, even though they may now be under severe pressure to do so.\nWhat, then, are the lessons that can be learned from this incident?\nFirst, non-profits should carefully screen their donors. Mother Teresa apparently accepted donations from anyone, no matter how unsavoury the donor. Her contention was that the money went to a good cause, helping the poor and destitute in the slums of Calcutta. But few non-profits have the moral stature of a Mother Teresa. They need to thoroughly examine the background of their donors before accepting gifts.\nSecond, accidents and scandals occur. Non-profits should protect themselves by having formal agreements with large donors that specify what happens in the event that one is embroiled in a scandal.\nFinally, non-profits should seize whatever opportunities present themselves. If you have broken eggs, make an omelette. The Aquarium of the Pacific can use the oil disaster and its association with BP to launch an educational program that discusses the benefits and risks of offshore drilling, especially the potential problems to the environment and the associated damage to aquatic wildlife.\nTainted donors certainly present ethical problems. But they also create significant opportunities for those non-profits that can see beyond the surface of problems.",

        "raw_content": "I try not to bang on about things of a philosophical nature, since I don\u2019t consider myself especially philosophical, or even particularly thoughtful. I mean, I *think* about a lot of things, but for the most part, these things are tangible things that I can do something about. There is one area, though, where I think philosophy and action sort of collide, and that\u2019s in the area of human interaction, the way we deal with each other. (Plus, I\u2019ve been turning this over for a long time, like years, so I guess it\u2019s finally time to put these thoughts down on paper. Um, \u201cpaper.\u201d)\nSpecifically, I am considering how to be kind.\nThis gets batted around a lot: \u201cBe kind to one another,\u201d \u201cbe kind to yourself,\u201d people say to each other, in passing, in conversation, but I\u2019m not sure they are getting to the root of the issue, which is something my friend Andrew posited years ago, over a decade ago, I think, we when we were both riding our legs and hearts out through Montana on behalf of an AIDS charity: \u201cKindness is a function of time.\u201d\nThat is to say, the more time you have, the more apt you are to be kind.\nThat\u2019s not to say that you should have to carve out minutes in which you should be kind\u2013\u201cOh, look, it\u2019s 2PM; time to be kind until 2:15\u201d\u2013but that if you just take the time to consider, anything, you might actually gravitate towards being kind on a regular basis, and maybe you get to stop reminding yourself.\nThat\u2019s the summer I started reminding myself to say thank you, with intent, wherever I went and to whomever. Bus drivers, retail clerks, people who held the door open. I\u2019m not sure I ever thought anything like, \u201cWell, it\u2019s their job; why should I thank them when they\u2019re getting paid?\u201d, but I know I said it with more gravitas, more point, than I used to. Thank you. Some people were startled. They hitched laughs and said, \u201cYou\u2019re welcome.\u201d Some stopped, surprised, and said, \u201cNo one ever says that. Thank you,\u201d which was just sad and weird all around.\nEventually it became habit.\nI think this spills over into other, smaller, things, too. Like, okay, so I have an acquaintance whose default setting is to try and be funny. I don\u2019t know why she does it. I just know that sometimes this knee-jerk reaction causes undue hurt. But I think if she stopped to think about the things she was saying, she\u2019d find herself being kinder to people, even if it means sacrificing the laugh (rueful) or the giggle (half-hearted; puzzled). Hell, even if she just took time to pay attention to the reaction she\u2019s getting, she might stop.\nAnd the other day, as I was trying to finish up some planning for a big event and complete all my work and get out the door so I could (ha!) have some time to myself, my phone rang. I saw who it was, and I knew what the caller wanted, and I knew that hearing what she wanted would make me completely crazy, so I just didn\u2019t answer the call. I left it until I could get onto the mountain, where I would lose the signal and not be able to call the person back or even listen to what I just knew would be an infuriating voicemail, and then, two hours later, when I got off the mountain and listened to the voicemail, it wasn\u2019t nearly as awful as I thought it was. I mean, it was exactly what I knew the person would want, but the time had dulled the import of the thing, and really, it wasn\u2019t that big a deal at all to fix. Or acquiesce to her request.\nI should say that Andrew and I were thinking about this kindness thing a lot because the whole point of the trip across Montana was a purpose larger than ourselves. The whole point of the six days in Montana, riding from Missoula to Billings, was to raise money for AIDS research. And that we were puzzling over how hard it was to go back to our regular lives, when, here in Montana, the whole point was to get everyone safely from A to B; that was the task at hand, and that was all that mattered. So all over, on lunch breaks and snack stops and at dinner, you\u2019d find people looking at each other\u2013\u201cHow was your ride? Do you feel okay?\u201d and volunteers asking the very same thing, and it was a good thing.\nLater that year, in the aftermath of 9-11, it was much the same. There wasn\u2019t anything to do but look after other people. It was all that mattered.\nI wish I had some bullhorn, some way of telling people about all of this, because lately I have caught a lot of people saying or doing things that they wouldn\u2019t say or do if they had just taken the time. Just consider, folks. It is worth the extra energy. And no, I don\u2019t always remember, either.\nBut this the best way I know of to be kind to yourself.\nPosted on October 2, 2013 by Yi Shun Lai\t\u2014 2 Responses \u2193\n2 Responses to On Kindness\nI happily, easily, say thank you for writing this YiShun. I\u2019m a \u2018thanker\u2019 from long back. I say thank you to grocery baggers and kiddy cross walk guards. I say thank you to my dogs when they stop barking, and thank you to green lights who stay green for me and the cars with me. I say thank you to my back when it\u2019s having a pain free hour. I say thank you to those I could naturally take for granted, like my husband. I thank him for dinner, I thank him for taking our dogs running, and washing their feet. Not one time, but every time I see it, cause I do feel it. Act, and it becomes part of you. Treat others like they\u2019re your best friend. One of my little mantras is, \u2018We\u2019re all doing the best we can.\u2019 So, thank you, YiShun, you did good.\nmargaret siber says:\nDear YiShun, thank you, thank you for your post \u201cOn Kindness\u201d.\nA couple of years ago, the women in my family were asked by a young family member who was about to get married, what advice we might have from our personal experiences, for a \u201chappy and successful\u201d marriage. I thought that being divorced might discredit me, but no that was not the case. While composing my response to this young woman, I came to the realization that all my suggestions boiled down to one: Be kind to each other. KIndness was a prominent theme in their marriage vows.",

        "raw_content": "Testosterone Rex: It\u2019s time to stop blaming sexism on hormones \u2013 ABC News\nThe notion that the hormone testosterone gives men a natural advantage in risk taking, from bungee jumping to working in trading rooms, is so pervasive it may come as a shock to learn it\u2019s backed by very little recent scientific evidence. The theory that men are more competitive and less risk-averse than women has been around for decades and is often used as justification for why they are better suited for the demands of, say, leadership roles or investment banking. But when psychologist Cordelia Fine delved into evidence from neuroscience and endocrinology for her new book, Testosterone Rex, a very different picture emerged \u2014 one which has important implications for tackling sexism and bias in workplaces. Read More\nFlexible work arrangements: easy for SES to say, harder for ELs to do \u2013 The Mandarin\nThe Australian Public Service gender equality strategy has the necessary commitment from senior leaders, but managers further down the line may need more support to make its aspirations a reality. Strong, unambiguous messaging from the top layers of leadership is important for any new workplace policy to have effect, but fine words about \u201cchanging culture through leadership, flexibility, and innovation\u201d are really just the beginning. Researcher Sue Williamson, who has just begun a study tracking the new strategy, has already observed \u201ca gap between the policy and implementation which kicks in around the EL2 or EL1 level\u201d in two large APS agencies. She found senior executives have done their part and given strong support to the strategy, but busy mid-level managers are struggling to implement new measures \u2014 the new flexible work arrangements that are now supposed to be the default \u2014 in particular. Read More\nAustralians aren\u2019t as Islamophobic as we\u2019re led to believe \u2013 ABC News\nOver the last few months, several reports have indicated a significant number of Australians hold anti-Muslim attitudes. However, research in the US and Europe shows Islamophobia is a multi-dimensional phenomenon, which is not captured in single-item surveys. For instance, another recent survey by the Pew Research Centre in the US found Australians welcomed diversity as much as Americans, despite some uncertainty over Muslim integration. In a survey conducted in late 2015 and early 2016, a battery of questions were used to ascertain Australians\u2019 attitudes towards Muslims and Islam. It is the first study that explored the multidimensionality of Islamophobia in Australia. The resulting nuanced and comprehensive profile of Islamophobia in Australia actually showed few Australians are truly afraid of those of Muslim faith. Read More\nMore women get passed for promotions, told by bosses they need more \u2018confidence\u2019, \u2018experience\u2019 \u2013 Canberra Times\nWomen are more likely to be told to display \u201cmore confidence\u201d and to get \u201cmore experience\u201d by their managers if they want promotions, with new research showing almost 60 per cent of men were promoted twice or more in the past five years compared with only 41 per cent of females. The gap in promotion rates only increases with seniority, according to a study by Bain & Company and Chief Executive Women. The study, Advancing Women in Australia: Eliminating bias in feedback and promotions, based on the responses of 4500 people in business, government and not-for-profit sectors, found that eliminating bias in feedback and promotions was the root cause of the disparity in promotion rates. It found women in line roles in corporate Australia are consistently moving through the promotion funnel at slower rates than male counterparts. Read More\nHow racism and a lack of diversity can harm productivity in our workplaces \u2013 The Conversation\nBeyond the requirement for diversity management and training in workplaces, Australian businesses also need to grapple with implicit racial bias and discrimination. A review of multiple studies indicates exposure to racism is detrimental to performance. This is due to its impact on job attitudes, mental and physical health, as well as organisational behaviour. Research also indicates that, by inflicting job stress, racism can reduce productivity. Even where diversity is unrelated to business performance, too much is at stake for companies to simply ignore their team composition. Diversity itself is a demographic fact, rather than an intrinsic \u201cgood\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d thing. As such, it is the underlying social, economic and political climate in a country that determines diversity\u2019s impacts in society. Australian workplaces do not yet reflect the level of cultural and ethnic diversity in the broader community. Read More\nConcentration of women managers results in higher pay for men \u2013 Canberra Times\nThe gender pay gap women widens when women hold most of the top management jobs. A 10 per cent or more increase in the proportion of female senior executives can narrow the gender pay gap. But if women make up more than 80 per cent of managers, the gap widens again, new research from Bankwest Curtin Economics Centre and the Workplace Gender Equality Agency has found. Report author and Bankwest Curtin Economics Centre principal research fellow Rebecca Cassells said the report findings starkly show the different ways women and men engaged with the workforce and how their contributions are valued. \u201cNot only do female-dominated organisations tend to be lower paid, but this analysis shows that in workplaces with heavily female-dominated management teams there are large gender pay gaps in favour of men,\u201d Associate Professor Cassells said. \u201cIt seems that where the men are few, they are more highly valued. It is often thought that men are put on a pedestal in environments where they are outnumbered by women.\u201d Read More\nThe Entry-Level Health Care Jobs Men Are (and Are Not) Taking \u2013 Harvard Business Review\nSince the 1970s the United States has shifted away from a manufacturing economy and toward a service-sector economy. This shift has been difficult for many workers, but especially for working-class men. At the same time, there has been a rise in service-sector occupations, many of which are female-dominated health care occupations, such as registered nurses, home health aides, and personal care aides. However, few men are entering these female-dominated occupations, despite high demand for the positions. One reason is because many of these jobs don\u2019t pay well. In addition, there is stigma around doing \u201cwomen\u2019s work,\u201d with men being reluctant to take jobs that require tasks that are associated with femaleness, such as hands-on care for an elderly person or child. In many ways, the election of Donald Trump brought this reluctance to the forefront; it is far more appealing to be promised manufacturing jobs than it is to be told you have to do \u201cwomen\u2019s work.\u201d Read More\nNo corporate diversity: Captains of Australian business likely to be named Peter or John \u2013 Canberra Times\nConsider this for a minute: to be a captain of Australian business \u2013 that is in a CEO or chair role \u2013 you are more likely to be named Peter or John than to be female. We are moving painfully slowly in breaking the glass ceiling, but it\u2019s time we also worry about ending the \u201cbamboo ceiling\u201d. Jane Hyun some years ago coined the phrase in her book focusing on Asians in the workplace, Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling: Career Strategies for Asians, which looked at the slow progress of Asian Americans inside America\u2019s largest companies. New research in Australia being released ahead of International Women\u2019s Day next week, shows Australians from Asian backgrounds, and other non-European backgrounds including Middle Eastern and African descent, are not being promoted into leadership roles. Read More\nMore than 75 percent of CEOs include gender equality in their top ten business priorities, but gender outcomes across the largest companies are not changing. McKinsey\u2019s research indicates, for example, that corporate America promotes men at 30 percent higher rates than women during their early career stages and that entry-level women are significantly more likely than men to have spent five or more years in the same role. Why is gender inequality in the workplace so persistent despite growing attention from business leaders and the media\u2014and what should we all do differently? The research suggests we fall short in translating top-level commitment into a truly inclusive work environment. We see strong evidence that even when top executives say the right things, employees don\u2019t think they have a plan for making progress toward gender equality, don\u2019t see those words backed up with action, don\u2019t feel confident calling out gender bias when they see it, and don\u2019t think frontline managers have gotten the message.

        "title": "The Nocturnal Rambler: Evoland: A Little Rough Around the Edges",
        "raw_content": "Evoland: A Little Rough Around the Edges\nJune has nearly come to an end, and I still haven't written a single article. It's tough working six days a week, but it doesn't help that I've been trying to play three games simultaneously. So I figured I'd try to play through a short indie game and write a quick review of it, and on an impulse bought Evoland for $9.99 on Steam. Less than 48 hours later, and before I'd actually started playing the game, Evoland went on sale on both Steam and GOG for $4.99. So the lesson learned is this: never buy a game unless it's on sale, because it will surely go on sale immediately after you buy it.\nEvoland is supposed to be a nostalgic tribute to classic action/adventure/RPGs like Zelda and Final Fantasy. The gimmick, here, is that the game progressively \"evolves\" from the historic roots of video games up to something more modern. The gameplay begins at its most basic, with visuals reminiscent of the original GameBoy; as you play, you unlock extra mechanics (like background music, health meters, save points, etc) and watch as the graphics steadily upgrade themselves to that of the early GameCube. It's an intriguing premise that does manage to kindle nostalgic memories of fonder times, but is the game itself any good?\nUnfortunately, the full game experience doesn't quite deliver on the great potential of the premise. We've all replayed some of our favorite games hoping to relive childhood passions, but the problem with Evoland is that it merely reminds us of other games, without offering much substance of its own. That's good for jogging fond memories (which is without a doubt fairly low-hanging fruit), but the experience rarely transcends simple nostalgia. It's basically like the game is trying to stand solely on references without having its own unique stamp to tie everything together. Don't get me wrong -- the \"evolution\" gimmick is very unique, but that's not enough to carry the weight of a $10 game.\nThe main issue with Evoland is that the bulk of its gameplay feels rudimentary and rote. Taking its main influences from Zelda and Final Fantasy, different sections of the game alternate between Zelda-style top-down dungeon crawling with real-time combat and FF-style world map navigation with turn-based combat. These gameplay styles capture the basic feel of each game but ultimately feel like lame, underwhelming imitations that just don't come close to capturing the magic of playing an actual Zelda or Final Fantasy game. The turn-based combat, for instance, follows the \"active time\" system where you wait for a gauge to fill up before selecting an action, but there's literally no depth to the combat system besides selecting \"attack\" until you win, which makes these portions of the game pretty boring.\nThere's one sizeable portion of the game, for example, where it turns into a Diablo-style hack n' slasher, with enemies coming at you in swarms and dropping piles of gold and random loot. It looks like Diablo, but it doesn't implement the gameplay mechanics in a wholesome way. Dropped loot is automatically equipped, and there's only one item to be found for each equipment slot, so you don't get the satisfaction of managing your inventory and playing with different types of gear -- the stuff that made playing Diablo actually fun. As it is in Evoland, you just mash the attack button over and over again until you reach the boss. The loot itself doesn't even provide worthwhile bonuses to your character; it's just there to parody or make reference to other games and mechanics in the flavor text. And at that stage in the game, all the gold you collect is basically worthless, too.\nFurthermore, mechanics don't carry over from one game \"type\" to another. When you're in the Final Fantasy random-encounter, turn-based combat sections, you earn experience points towards leveling up -- but these stats become completely irrelevant once you enter a Zelda section. Weapons and items you unlock in the Zelda section (like bombs or the bow and arrow) can't be used in conjunction with Final Fantasy's turn-based combat or in the Diablo hack n' slash combat. The effect is to make each section of the game feel somewhat fleeting and trivial, because there's barely any continuity between them. The game comes off feeling like a bunch of random ideas mashed together without any glue to hold it together.\nThe first half of the game lacks any real form of imperative, because it doesn't give you any kind of set-up, story, or goals. The early gameplay basically just amounts to wandering to the next available space and opening treasure chests along the way, which introduce the new gameplay mechanics and upgrade the aesthetics as you go. There's no incentive to keep going, except to see what new thing will be introduced with the next treasure chest. As neat as it is to see the game progressively build itself up from basically nothing, I feel like the experience could've been more enjoyable if the game had a little something more going on.\nThe actual \"story\" doesn't really begin until the game's finished establishing all of its most essential building blocks (roughly 1-2 hours into the experience), but the story isn't enough to rustle anyone's interest. Like the gameplay, it feels rudimentary and rote; it's there out of necessity, not because there was an actual story that wanted to be told. While exploring the world map, you rescue a young girl who then takes you to her village. Once there, you learn that the town's been devastated by an evil villain, whom you must stop. From there, you have to go to two different dungeons to collect two halves of an amulet to gain access to a tower to fight the boss. It's incredibly basic, and since the characters have no personality it's hard to actually care about what's going on. It's just going through the motions.\nThe most interesting aspect of the game's evolution gimmick is that it makes you appreciate features and mechanics that we've come to expect and now take for granted. Playing the early portions of the game, I was reminded of how primitive combat was in the original Legend of Zelda and Link's Awakening, when you could only move in four directions along the square grid patterns. Once I'd unlocked free movement -- the ability to move off the grid -- combat became so much more feasible. Likewise, in the beginning you reach a game over screen after taking a single hit from an enemy -- something typical of early Nintendo games -- and so it was an immense pleasure finally to have a health meter once I'd unlocked it.\nThe other particularly neat spot with the evolving graphics comes when you get the ability to time-travel. Time-traveling between past and present was a big mechanic of Ocarina of Time, but what's unique about time-traveling in Evoland is that you travel between gaming eras. You end up switching back and forth between full 3D visuals and classic 2D graphics, and use the differences between the two eras to solve puzzles and navigate throughout the world. That's a pretty cool mechanic, but unfortunately like the rest of the game's elements, once you're through with that particular area, the time-traveling mechanic never comes back.\nThe game isn't very long, either, which makes it a little harder to justify the asking price. It took me four hours to beat the game with a 92% completion rate. The completion rate is sort of like Metroid, based on how many hidden stars and trading cards you acquired, but that's the only replay value the game has -- backtracking through a dozen areas you've already cleared searching for bomb spots you saw and passed a long time ago, but didn't have access to bombs at the time. Before facing the final boss I went around looking for new areas, but just didn't have the willpower (or the desire) to go for 100% completion. Of course, the four hour length is a bit of a blessing, because with how crude most of the gameplay is, the game might have gotten stale and tedious and worn out its welcome if it were much longer.\nThe bottom line for Evoland is that it's an interesting idea, but it doesn't reach its full potential. Nostalgia is a powerful thing, and the similarities and references to beloved titles like Zelda and Final Fantasy may be enough to make the game enjoyable for some gamers, but I feel like Evoland needs to transcend the nostalgic references and do something unique and worthwhile on its own in order for it to be considered a truly great game. It's a quality product that deserves praise for the effort that went into it, but I just didn't have as much fun with it as I thought possible for such a wonderful gimmick.\nTags: Evoland, Indie, Review",

        "title": "Big 12 Media Day Notes: Kansas Packs Sprint Center for Charity Game - The Open Man",
        "raw_content": "Big 12 Media Day Notes: Kansas Packs Sprint Center for Charity Game\nPosted by Wendell Barnhouse on October 24, 2017 October 24, 2017\nKANSAS CITY, Mo. \u2013 Two days prior to Tuesday\u2019s Big 12 media day, the Sprint Center hosted the Battle for Relief, a charity exhibition game that had Kansas and Missouri meeting on the court for the first time since 2012.\nThe game drew a sold-out crowd and raised $1.75 million. But hopes for a resumption of the Jayhawks-Tigers series in the regular season remains a non-starter with KU coach Bill Self.\nA packed Sprint Center saw Mizzou lose to Kansas in a charity basketball game for hurricane relief: https://t.co/B23r5hQGjl pic.twitter.com/UNosiwWfcz\n\u2014 93.9 The Eagle (@939TheEagle) October 23, 2017\n\u201cWe\u2019re going to do what\u2019s best for us,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re not interested in doing what\u2019s best for Missouri, or best for Missouri fans. But if it\u2019s best for us to play them, we will. It\u2019s not a complicated deal. I\u2019m not going to say never. But I don\u2019t think there\u2019s been any change in our position as far as the university goes.\u201d\nWhen Missouri left the Big 12 for the Southeastern Conference, it was an irrevocable divorce as far as Kansas was concerned. The school\u2019s position echoes words spoken by Baylor women\u2019s coach in the same building during Big 12 women\u2019s media day in 2011 when she was asked if the Lady Bears would play Texas A&M with the Aggies departing the league.\n\u201cIf a man wants to divorce me and says our relationship has no value to him, and then he asks me if he can sleep with me, the answer is, \u2018No!\u2019\u201d\nPlaying an exhibition game for charity, though, brought Kansas and Missouri together in an atmosphere that resembled an NCAA Tournament game.\n\u201cIn warmups, you could just tell how much juice there was in the building,\u201d Kansas senior guard Devonte\u2019 Graham said.\nThe idea for charity games to help with hurricane relief funds was brought forward by the National Association of Basketball Coaches and approved by the NCAA. There are approximately 40 charity games that have either been played or scheduled.\nSchools are allowed to play two exhibition games against lower division opponents before starting their regular-season schedule. The charity exhibitions have pitted Division I teams against each other.\n\u201cIt was a good game for us, we played a team that\u2019s a favorite in the MVC,\u201d Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said of his team\u2019s game with Missouri State. \u201cWe had to come to play. Both teams played everybody, second teams played against each other.\u201d\nTexas takes on Texas A&M in Houston Wednesday.\n\u201cA&M has one of the best front courts in the country and we\u2019ve got three freshmen bigs who will have a baptism by fire,\u201d Texas coach Shaka Smart said. \u201cAnd, it\u2019s an exhibition game, they don\u2019t have to be so down if things don\u2019t go their way.\u201d\nThe recent sprouting of these charity exhibitions has also produced an idea to allow these events to be allowed going forward.\nSelf is serving a one-year term as NABC president this year and he was on the conference call with the NCAA that led to schools being allowed to play the \u201cemergency\u201d exhibitions.\n\u201cThe NCAA said there was a window to do something good for others,\u201d Self said. \u201cThe template is made for this to move forward so we\u2019ll just have to wait and see.\u201d\nBig 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby lightly tapped the brakes on the idea.\n\u201cWe have settled on a number of games that are permissible under the rules and yet we\u2019ve also encountered a proliferation of exempt contests,\u201d Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said. \u201cSo what we thought was an absolute number on the number of games we were going to play has now morphed into something very with different than that.\n\u201cI haven\u2019t heard any momentum for making (charity exhibitions) a permanent waiver of the rule. That would take a more substantial effort, and if that has started I haven\u2019t heard it.\u201d\nIf the NCAA does allow for Division I teams to stage exhibitions for charity, Self and Smart both have big ideas.\n\u201cI would like to see it get bigger,\u201d Self said. \u201cWe did (Battle for Relief) with two weeks\u2019 notice. What if we could get all levels of basketball, down to high school, to do one event for charity. That could be $50 million to $100 million, real money. That would be the dream.\u201d\nSmart noted that with so many Division I teams in the state of Texas that bringing together four or more teams at a neutral site would generate interest and donations.\n\u201cThat would be neat to get teams playing each other that don\u2019t normally see each other,\u201d he said.\nThe specter of the FBI\nBowlsby commented on the Justice Department and the FBI probe into college basketball recruiting. Oklahoma State assistant coach Lamont Evans was fired because of his involvement with the federal investigation.\n\u201cOur basketball is impeccable and led by people of integrity,\u201d he said.\nAsked about how the Big 12 has handled it, Bowlsby said the conference and the NCAA has provided its typical pre-season guidance and advice and compliance issues.\n\u201cEven the schools\u2019 roles have been somewhat unclear,\u201d Bowlsby said. \u201cThis is new territory dealing with governmental agencies. We want to make sure compliance is on everybody\u2019s minds. Beyond that, we wait \u2026 like everybody else.\u201d\nBowlsby, chair of the football oversight rules committee, said that the FBI probe into basketball has also given him concern that similar issues might be \u201cbaked in\u201d to football. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to have too vivid an imagination to show up in other sports,\u201d he said.\nShaw vs. Huggins\nFor the last half dozen years, Your Veteran Correspondent has heard Big 12 officiating coordinator Curtis Shaw explain how college basketball refs are being told to blow their whistles. The common theme of late has been freer offensive movement (less grabbing), legal screening, and reducing wrestling matches in the low post.\nAnd when YVC watches games during the season, he sees defensive pass interference committed against cutters, illegal screens and bump, bump, bump \u2026 TWEET \u2026 when the first bump by either the offensive or defensive player should have been called.\n\u201cThe rules committee says we want more possessions and more opportunities to score,\u201d Shaw said. \u201cSo they\u2019re going to limit the defensive ability to physically attack the basketball or a player. (On the other hand) the Rules Committee is adamant that we\u2019re not going to let the defense attack you on offense. We can\u2019t let the offense get away with things like illegal screens and travels.\n\u201cThere is no referee on the Rules Committee. We have no input into what they decide they want us to do. We just have to be the ones that enforce it.\u201d\nOf the 10 coaches to answer questions from the podium at Big 12 media day, West Virginia\u2019s Bob Huggins was the only one to field a question about officiating. The Mountaineers\u2019 penchant for pressing and body-to-body defense is well known. According to Shaw, players with the ball will need their personal space.\n\u201cI think the only thing that is a little bit alarming to me is we act like there\u2019s never going to be any contact,\u201d Huggins said. \u201cThe players are too big. They\u2019re too strong. They\u2019re too fast and the court is too small for there not to be any contact. So there is going to be contact.\u201d\nThe pushme pullyou between how coaches coach their players and how referees blow their whistles has become an annual issue. It appears we\u2019ll be in for more of the same this season.\nTo fill the hole in his staff created by Evans\u2019 dismissal, new Oklahoma State coach Mike Boynton reached into the school\u2019s history and this week hired Scott Sutton as an assistant coach. Sutton was fired by Oral Roberts last April. In 18 seasons, the oldest son of former Cowboys coach Eddie Sutton, won 328 games in 18 seasons at the Tulsa-based school.\nWith Texas and Texas A&M facing off in an exhibition game, there might be momentum for the Longhorns and the Aggies agreeing to a regular-season non-conference game. The cold war between the schools over the football series is not as insurmountable as playing hoops. Texas A&M coach Billy Kennedy said Tuesday the schools are discussing a non-conference series that could start as early as next year.\nAll five players on the preseason team are seniors \u2013 West Virginia\u2019s Jevon Carter, Texas Tech\u2019s Zach Smith, TCU\u2019s Vladimir Brodziansky, Oklahoma State\u2019s Jeffrey Carroll and Kansas\u2019 Devonte\u2019 Graham. \u201cI would say that\u2019s odd (in this day and age),\u201d Kansas coach Bill Self said. \u201cI don\u2019t know if it will play out to be that way because I think we have some really good young players in our league but most of those preseason polls that are done, you know, people vote on what they know.\u201d\nTexas coach Shaka Smart on freshman point guard Matt Coleman and junior forward Dylan Osetkowski being good passers and how that helps a team that struggled to shoot the ball last season:\n\u201cOld saying in basketball that passers make shooters. I think we\u2019ll be a much-improved shooting team. We better be. We\u2019ve been shooting better in practice but as everybody knows that has to carry over to games.\u201d\nKansas coach Bill Self was asked how concerned he was about his team\u2019s depth with just eight scholarship players available:\n\u201cA lot. Depth is certainly a concern. Eight is plenty as long as you\u2019re healthy, but whenever injuries start occurring or peak guys start wearing down it\u2019s a concern.\u201d\nWest Virginia coach Bob Huggins was decked a bow tie, yellow vest and saddle oxfords in school colors and he was asked if he might wear that outfit during a game this season:\nPrevious article Adam Silver\u2019s Thoughts on One-And-Done are Actually Good\nNext article Going to College Coaches for Opinions on NCAA and Pay Isn\u2019t Helping\nTagged in Kansas Jayhawks, Oklahoma State Cowboys, Texas Longhorns, West Virginia Mountaineers",

        "raw_content": "It's been a while since I've had a new W.W. Denslow book cover to show! Here we have a Rand McNally paperback printing of A Modern Corsair, by Richard Henry Savage - the man who never learned the proper use of exclamation marks!!\nThe previous Rand McNally titles that I've shown have all been hardcover books. But Denslow designed quite a few paperbacks for the company as well; many times he did the same title in both paper and hardcover, but the designs don't tend to be the same.\nFor example, on the right is the hardcover version of A Modern Corsair, courtesy of Cindy Ragni of Avant-Garde Books. A shipwreck is a prominent feature of both the hard and soft covers. This must play into the story, but I haven't read this one yet to know the details! The hardcovers make use of bold, colorful stampings, while the paperbacks feature more linear designs.\nFor another example, here's the hardcover version of In The Swim, also written by Savage. Bill Thompson recently turned up a paperback version with a very different cover design. The paperback cover is much more of an illustration for the story, which deals in part with shenanigans on Wall Street. On the other hand, the hardcover makes use of one of Denslow's more generic shield designs. However, both incorporate a golden calf, symbolizing the worship of money that becomes the downfall of several characters in the story.",

        "title": "Surrender to the Void: The Auteurs #62: Sam Peckinpah",
        "raw_content": "Among one of the most polarizing figures in American cinema to emerge in the post-war era, Sam Peckinpah was an extremist in a lot of ways. While he\u2019s made films that are considered standards of the western genre, he\u2019s also managed to cause a lot of controversy in his graphic depiction of violence where he is often nicknamed Bloody Sam. Yet, those who had seen and praised his work see a man that is definitely an outsider where he would often battle studios to do what he wants while making films that talk about those who don\u2019t fit in with the modern world or wanting to play by the rules. More than thirty years since his passing, Peckinpah remains a controversial figure by some yet others see him as one of the greats who was unwilling to compromise no matter how much the world was against him.\nBorn David Samuel Peckinpah on February 21, 1925 in Fresno, California to David Edward Peckinpah and Fern Louise Church. Fern\u2019s father Denver S. Church was a superior court judge as well as a cattle rancher and a Congressman for the Fresno country district in California. The young Sam grew up in unique surroundings as he enjoyed time in his grandfather\u2019s ranch learning the ways of cattle branding and other activities while also enjoying the emergence of westerns that were being made on film. It was a life that Peckinpah liked as it was sharp contrast to the surroundings of towns and the city where Peckinpah had trouble fitting in. While he able to play junior varsity for his local football team, he was eventually kicked out often due to fighting with other students causing his parents to enroll him at San Rafael Military Academy in his senior year. In 1943, Peckinpah enlisted to join the marines where would eventually serve World War II on the Pacific campaign.\nPeckinpah would later attend the Fresno campus of California State University following his discharge as he would meet his first wife Marie Selland whom he married in 1947. While studying history, Peckinpah became interested in the world of drama as well as the idea of directing plays. With the sudden emergence of television, Peckinpah would work for a local TV station as a stagehand after completing his tenure in college where he hoped it would lead him to get experience in the world of film. Instead, Peckinpah found himself combative over what to do to play by the rules as he would fight with bosses. In 1953, Peckinpah\u2019s life would change where he was given a job working as a dialogue coach on the set of Don Siegel\u2019s noir crime film Riot on Cell Block 11 where he found a mentor in Siegel. Siegel would have Peckinpah work as a dialogue coach and eventually do re-writes on other projects as he would guide the young man to find his own voice.\nThe TV Years (1957-1962)\nSiegel\u2019s connection in the industry would give Peckinpah the chance to write for various TV shows that were emerging throughout the 1950s as many of them would be westerns. Shows such as Gunsmoke, The Rifleman, Have Gun-Will Travel, and Broken Arrow would allow Peckinpah the chance to hone his craft as a writer as he would also direct an episode of Broken Arrow in 1958 that would later get him directing gigs for shows such as Klondike and a sitcom in Mr. Adams and Eve as the latter starred Ida Lupino who would encourage Peckinpah to hone his craft as a filmmaker. His work in television would give him the chance to meet actors such as James Coburn and L.Q. Jones who would later become collaborators for some of Peckinpah\u2019s films. In 1957, Peckinpah was asked to adapt Charles Neider\u2019s novel The Authentic Death of Hendry Jones for actor Marlon Brando who was trying to create a western that was to be directed by Stanley Kubrick. Instead, problems on the project that eventually became One-Eyed Jacks would eventually helmed by Brando himself as he rejected Peckinpah\u2019s script as little of the material ended up in the film.\nIn 1960, Peckinpah was given the chance to helm his own series for NBC entitled The Westerner as it would star Brian Keith. The show would be part of a series of TV westerns that NBC wanted as it would premiere in late September of 1960. While it was well-received by critics, the show didn\u2019t do well in the ratings as it was cancelled at the end of the year though it did attract a cult following and gave Peckinpah a reputation as a reliable filmmaker who can create images that were expected within the western genre as well as explore themes of honor and loyalty.\nFollowing the cancellation of The Westener, Peckinpah was approached by Brian Keith about helming a film he is to star in that will co-star Maureen O\u2019Hara with her brother Charles B. Fitzsimmons producing the film. Peckinpah agreed to meet with Fitzsimmons who would give Peckinpah the job as it would be a chance to helm a film for the very first time. With a cast that would include such noted Western character actors in Chill Wills and Strother Martin, the film be shot in Arizona with a very small budget as it would revolve an ex-army colonel whose attempt to stop robbers at a bank robbery has him accidentally killing a young boy. In a need to redeem himself, he would accompany the boy\u2019s mother to bury the boy in a small town near treacherous land controlled by the Apache. Though Peckinpah was fascinated by the story as it had themes that he cherished, he would learn that he would have no control on what changes are made to the script as well as have a say in the editing.\nStill, the job allowed him to give him the experience in helming a feature film as he enjoyed working with the actors including Wills who would become one of many actors Peckinpah would work with occasionally. After shooting and seeing what Fitzsimmons would do in the editing under his supervision, Peckinpah knew that if he was ever going to be offered the chance to make another feature film. It would be under his terms and under his control.The film made its premiere in June of 1961 where despite earning good reviews, the film didn\u2019t go anywhere in the box office. Especially as another film Keith and O\u2019Hara did earlier in The Parent Trap came out a week later where it was a major hit as Peckinpah\u2019s film disappeared from theaters quickly. Yet, the film would later be discovered in the coming years as some saw it as one of Peckinpah\u2019s overlooked gems.\nAfter finishing up his work in television in shooting episodes for The Dick Powell Theater, Peckinpah met with producer Richard Lyons who liked Peckinpah\u2019s TV work as he gave him a script by N.B. Jones Jr. about two aging gunslingers taking a job to transport gold from a remote mining town as they cope with the growing changes around them. Peckinpah said yes to the project as he would re-write the script with William Roberts with Jones\u2019 input as it would be set in the early years of the 20th Century as it would play into Peckinpah\u2019s theme with the emergence of the modern world and man\u2019s reaction to these changes. Peckinpah would also infuse bits of his own personal life and background into the story. Especially as it gave the story more weight into the themes that Peckinpah wanted to explore as he cast Randolph Scott and Joel McCrea in the lead roles despite the fact that both men were no longer considered draws in the genre.\nThe cast would also include character actors such as L.Q. Jones, Warren Oates, and R.G. Armstrong were cast while Ron Starr was cast as a young cowboy aiding the old men and Mariette Hartley as woman who would join the men as she is to get married at the town they\u2019re going to. Much of the film was shot around desert and mountain locations in California with some of it shot on studio sets as the film would mark the first in a series of collaborations with cinematographer Lucien Ballard. Ballard would give Peckinpah not just naturalistic images that played into the west but also a sense of scope that gave Peckinpah more of what to do visually. The production was quite smooth in comparison to some of the drawbacks Peckinpah endured with his first film as Peckinpah was ecstatic about making a film under his complete control. While the budget was quite small at over $800,000, Peckinpah was able to use his limitations to his advantage.\nThe film made its premiere in late June of 1962 where the film didn\u2019t do well commercially when it was released by MGM as it disappeared for a while in the U.S. Later that year in Europe, the film premiered in film festivals where it was a major hit as some saw it a new and fresh take on the genre. In New York City, the film had become a cult hit as many of its critics lavished the film with a lot of praise as it made Time magazine\u2019s top-ten list of the best films that year with Newsweek naming it the year\u2019s best film. For Peckinpah, the critical support would prove to important as it helped raise Peckinpah\u2019s profile.\nWhile Peckinpah was riding high on the critical success of Ride the High Country, the filmmaker had to wait for a new project to emerge where he found a script by Harry Julian Fink about a Union cavalry officer who teams up a mixed group of Army regulars, Confederate soldiers, and Indian scouts in dealing with Apache tribes wreaking havoc around towns in Texas and parts of Mexico. Peckinpah liked the script though he felt it needed work as he and acclaimed screenwriter Oscar Saul did a lot of re-writes where they focused on a man\u2019s determination for glory much to the chagrin of those who are working under him. While working on the script which brought the attention of actor Charlton Heston who liked Ride the High Country, Peckinpah was asked to make the film with Heston in the titular role while the cast would include several of Peckinpah\u2019s regulars in James Coburn, R.G. Armstrong, Warren Oates, and L.Q. Jones while it would also mark the first time Peckinpah would work with Slim Pickens and Ben Johnson.\nFor the role of the Confederate officer Captain Benjamin Tyree, British actor Richard Harris was cast as the film would be the first film Peckinpah made under a massive budget at around $3 million under the supervision of Columbia Pictures. When shooting began in 1964, it was made without a finished script as Peckinpah was trying to create something that was authentic with a large cast. One of the aspects that led to the film\u2019s troubled production was that it would be shot in various locations in Mexico which was something the executives at Columbia didn\u2019t like which caused the film to go over budget and be behind schedule. Adding to the chaos was Peckinpah\u2019s consumption of alcohol which he had been known for as it would become something prominent for much of his career. The shoot was further troubled due to the action scenes as well as Peckinpah dealing with Heston, who was known for having a massive ego on set, though the two did have their moments where they had some fun.\nBy the time Peckinpah worked on the editing of the film with a trio of editors, Peckinpah\u2019s original cut ran over 4 hours which would eventually turn into a more substantial cut running at a 156-minutes to Columbia. The executives weren\u2019t happy as they wanted something shorter as well as put in a score by Daniele Amfitheatrof which Peckinpah hated. When the film was screened in March of 1965 with a running time of 136-minutes, it was panned by the critics which forced Columbia to take out thirteen minutes of the film for its theatrical release much to the protest of Peckinpah and producer Jerry Besler who was trying to help Peckinpah get his creative control. The film\u2019s commercial failure was a major setback for Peckinpah as he was helming The Cincinnati Kid where he was seen in Hollywood as a renegade and was fired four days after filming as producers and executives didn\u2019t like what he shot as he was replaced by Norman Jewison. In 2005, producer Jerry Besler was in charge in creating an expanded version of the film based on Peckinpah\u2019s notes as it would include a new score by Christopher Caliendo. The restored 136-minute version of the film would receive a rousing reception from critics as even those who had been experts of Peckinpah\u2019s work felt the film was a major improvement over the theatrical release.\nAfter the horrendous experience of Major Dundee and being fired from The Cincinnati Kid, Peckinpah\u2019s career seemed to have been stalled until producer Daniel Melnick offered to help him out. While Peckinpah was considered a Hollywood outcast, Melnick gave Peckinpah the chance to helm a TV movie based on Katherine Anne Porter\u2019s short novel about a farmer who invites an immigrant into his home to help out his ailing dairy farm where tragedy would later ruin them. Melnick gave Peckinpah complete control as Peckinpah would write the script himself as Porter would read it and approved it. With cinematographer Lucien Ballard on board after not being able to take part of the production of Major Dundee, the cast would also include Peckinpah regulars L.Q. Jones and Ben Johnson in small roles.\nFor the lead role of Royal Earle Thompson, Jason Robards was cast in his first collaboration with Peckinpah while Olivia de Haviland was cast as Thompson\u2019s ailing wife. The production was an easier one as the project would also mark the very first time Peckinpah worked with music composer Jerry Fielding who would provide a mixture of orchestral and country-folk music that Peckinpah liked. The TV movie was released as part of ABC\u2019s Stage 67 film series in late November of 1966 where it received excellent reviews from the critics. Though it wouldn\u2019t be seen publicly for many years until it was released as part of an extra for a Blu-Ray release for one of Peckinpah\u2019s later films in 2014. The film marked a turning point for Peckinpah as well as showing that he could do a lot more than make violent westerns by showing a sensitive side that would be unveiled in later films to come.\nDespite being seen as a pariah in Hollywood, there were some like Daniel Melnick that wanted to work with Peckinpah as did producers Kenneth Hyman and Phil Feldman of Warner Brothers-Seven Arts where they gave Peckinpah a script for an adventure film for him to helm. Yet, Peckinpah was also given another script written by Walon Green and Roy N. Sickner that played more into his sensibilities. The story was about a group of aging outlaws in the early 20th Century who robbed a bank in Texas and fled to Mexico where they\u2019re forced to work for a corrupt Mexican general as they also contend with the changes in the modern world. Peckinpah would do re-writes on the script with Green as it would play into Peckinpah\u2019s own disdain towards modern society as well as seeing what was happening around the world and in cinema with the recent release of Bonnie and Clyde which was notorious for its graphic violence. By late 1967 as Peckinpah was doing more re-writes and pre-production with the support of Feldman who would produce the film.\nFor the cast, Peckinpah called in some of his regulars in Warren Oates and Ben Johnson in key parts along with L.Q. Jones and Strother Martin in small parts. For other actors to join Oates and Johnson in big leading roles, Peckinpah wanted some big names as he was able to get Lee Marvin on board only to lose him when he was offered more money to star in Paint Your Wagon. Peckinpah was able to get Ernest Borgnine, William Holden, and stage actor Jaime Sanchez in the key roles with Robert Ryan and Edmond O\u2019Brien in prominent supporting parts. Along with several parts for prominent Mexican actors like Emilio Fernandez and Alfonso Arau, the film would be largely shot in Mexico as it was definitely the ideal place that Peckinpah wanted for the film to be set as he and cinematographer Lucien Ballard also wanted to expand the visual canvas for the film.\nOne of the things Peckinpah wanted to do in shooting many of the scenes was to shoot it from multiple angles to get a sense of the chaos that the men are dealing with not just in Mexico but also in the emergence of the modern world. Especially with the film\u2019s violent sequences where Peckinpah wanted as it was quite extravagant but also played into a sense of nihilism that reflected man\u2019s view of the modern world which would relate to what is happening around the late 1960s. Helping Peckinpah with collecting all of the footage that he had shot was editor Lou Lombardo whom Peckinpah met during the editing of Noon Wine. Lombardo would create a style of editing would become a trademark of Peckinpah\u2019s visuals which would show the violence in slow-motion. That presentation of slow-motion violence was quite disconcerting for the newly-created ratings board of the Motion Picture Association of America who would give the film the dreaded X rating. Peckinpah agreed to do some trimming to give the film its R rating so it would be seen by a wide audience while he would maintain his print of his uncut version of the film.\nWhen the film made its premiere in June of 1969, the film divided critics as some were aghast over its violent content yet there were those who praised the film as something that was original and new. The film grossed more than $11 million against its $6 million budget which was good for Warner Brothers as the film received two Oscar nominations for Best Original Screenplay and for Jerry Fielding\u2019s score. In 1995, the film was restored to include the ten minutes of footage that was cut out from its original theatrical release as Warner Brothers submitted the film again two years earlier to the MPAA where it received the newly-created NC-17 rating showing that the film still had the power to shock. The film would give Peckinpah international acclaim as it would put him in line with an emergence of new filmmakers who would be part of the New Hollywood movement of the 1970s.\nWith the major success of The Wild Bunch and a degree of clout from that success, Peckinpah knew he didn\u2019t want to repeat himself as he didn\u2019t want to make a film that was extremely violent. Having read an original script by John Crawford and Edmund Penney which was about a prospector who finds water in the middle of the Arizona desert as he would make it a watering hole for travelers during the final years of the west. The film definitely played into Peckinpah\u2019s themes in his disdain towards modern society as well as the fact that it is set in the West. Gathering many of his collaborators for the film as well as having Jason Robards play the lead role of its titular character with a cast that include several regulars of Peckinpah in L.Q. Jones, Strother Martin, R.G. Armstrong, and Slim Pickens. Added to the cast is Stella Stevens as the prostitute Hildy whom Cable falls for and British actor David Warner as the preacher Reverend Johnson.\nThe shoot in the Nevada desert was plagued with problems due to weather as the $3 million budget would escalate due to these issues. Adding to the problems of the production was Peckinpah\u2019s increase intake in alcohol as he would fire 36 crew members on set as the executives at Warner-Seven Arts became worried where they offered Peckinpah other major projects such as Deliverance and Jeremiah Johnson where he turned both films down. The two decided to part ways following its completion though Peckinpah was able to get final cut as he was also enjoying his time working with the actors on the film as he would eventually finish over 19 days over schedule.\nThe film was released in May of 1970 where despite making more than $5 million worldwide with $3.5 million in the U.S., the film was considered a flop as it came and went after its initial release. The critical reception didn\u2019t help despite another rave from Roger Ebert as the film was largely ignored yet the film would later get a critical re-evaluation as some see it as one of Peckinpah\u2019s more underrated films. Peckinpah himself would see the film as one of his favorites as it proved that there was more to him than making violent pictures.\nHaving burned bridges with Warner Brothers and Hollywood reluctant to work with him, Peckinpah went to Britain where he was lauded there as producer Daniel Melnick gave him a copy of Gordon M. Williams\u2019 novel The Siege of Trencher\u2019s Farm which is about an American professor who moves to small town in England with his family as they would be terrorized by locals over culture clash and such. Roman Polanski was offered the chance to make an adaptation of the film but was unavailable as Melnick got the rights to make the book into a film as Peckinpah wrote the script with David Zelag Goldman as they made some changes from the book and updated to be set in the 20th Century. The film wouldn\u2019t just play into the world of culture shock but also what drives a man to go from being timid and civilized and then go into a rage to protect his family.\nWith Melnick\u2019s help, Peckinpah was able to get Dustin Hoffman to star in the film while David Warner played the role of a local mentally-handicapped man in Henry Niles as he would be un-credited due to contractual reasons. Still, Warner said yes to the role as a favor for Peckinpah while the cast would include Susan George as Hoffman\u2019s wife and Peter Vaughan as a local drunkard who is suspicious of Hoffman\u2019s character. Since Lucien Ballard was unable to take part of the production, Peckinpah got the services of Dutch cinematographer John Coquillon to shoot the film as he would become a new recurring collaborator for Peckinpah. The film would be shot in small towns in England near it seaside locations as the film wouldn\u2019t just be a study of man driven to the edge. It would also explore things that would drive a man to the edge as he would later learn that his wife was raped by a former lover from the town.\nThe film premiered in November of 1971 in the U.K. that was followed by a U.S. release a month later as the film proved to be controversial. While it was a commercial success, the film divided critics upon its initial release not just due to the rape scene but also for its violence. While the film would be re-cut trimming some of its graphic content, the film remained controversial in a period that saw an increase in sex and violence in films. Especially in Britain as it would ban the film 1984 for some time until 2002 where it was released on home video in its un-edited release. The film\u2019s commercial success and controversy didn\u2019t just give Peckinpah some clout outside of Hollywood but also made him a much more infamous figure.\nHaving allowed himself to be able to make films independently by his name alone, Peckinpah decided to make another non-violent film set in the West. He would return to the U.S. with a script by Jeb Rosebrook about a rodeo cowboy returning home in the hopes of having one more success in the rodeo circuit as well as make amends with his estranged family. The story played into not just Peckinpah\u2019s disdain towards modern society and what the American West is becoming but also the idea of man trying to hold on to some old ideals of honor and duty during a time of capitalism. While Peckinpah\u2019s name was attractive enough for the project, he knew he needed a big name to star in the film as Steve McQueen read the script and accepted the lead role of the titular character as it was something different from the usual films he was in.\nThe cast would also Peckinpah regular Ben Johnson as rodeo owner as well as Joe Don Baker as Bonner\u2019s brother, Robert Preston as Bonner\u2019s father, and Ida Lupino as Bonner\u2019s mother as Peckinpah was overjoyed to work with Lupino who had given him a break during the 1950s. The film would be shot largely on location in Prescott, Arizona where Lucien Ballard returned to work with Peckinpah for the project. Despite Peckinpah\u2019s struggle with alcoholism, the production was quite smooth as Peckinpah brought in locals to be in the film to create something that was authentic. Especially as the setting felt right into what Peckinpah wanted to tell as he sees this struggle of old values vs. new values. The film was released in August of 1972 where despite good reviews, the film didn\u2019t do well in the box office falling very short to recoup its $3.2 million budget. The film\u2019s commercial disappointment was surprising due to McQueen\u2019s status as a major star while Peckinpah felt that the film\u2019s lack of heavy violence contributed to its poor commercial take. Still, the film would largely be seen as one of Peckinpah\u2019s overlooked gems in the coming years.\nIn a need to get himself back on track commercially, Peckinpah was approached by Steve McQueen on helming a project that is based on a novel by Jim Thompson. It was about a married couple who go on the run after killing a corrupt businessman who had given them a job to steal money from a rival bank. Peckinpah agreed to do the project and to work with McQueen again even though McQueen was the one in charge of the production that would include a script from an up-and-coming filmmaker in Walter Hill. While Peckinpah was able to get a few of his collaborators including cinematographer Lucien Ballard as well as Ben Johnson in the role of the antagonist Jack Benyon as well as small roles for Slim Pickens and a new recurring collaborator in Bo Hopkins. McQueen and his producers were able to secure one of the biggest movie stars at the time in Ali MacGraw as the female lead.\nWith a cast that would also include Sally Struthers, Al Letteri, and Richard Bright, the shooting would begin in February of 1972 through various locations in Texas including San Antonio and El Paso. The production was troubled not just by weather or budget but rather personal reasons as Peckinpah\u2019s consumption of alcohol which had increased as he struggled to be sober. Tension between him and McQueen didn\u2019t help matters as they would often argue throughout the production. Adding to the turmoil of the film was the fact that McQueen was having an affair with MacGraw as she was married to the Paramount studio executive Robert Evans as it would later become public. During filming in El Paso in April, Peckinpah sneaked into the Mexican border to marry Joie Gould whom he met in Britain during the making of Straw Dogs as she would be Peckinpah\u2019s third wife.\nAfter shooting was finished for the summer, Peckinpah was forced to deal with the fact that he didn\u2019t have final cut though he was still involved in the editing of the film. Yet, his marriage to Gould only last four months as they split leaving Peckinpah devastated and increased his intake of alcohol. Peckinpah called in his longtime collaborator Jerry Fielding to do the score but following some test screenings for the film. Fielding\u2019s score was removed and replaced by the music of Quincy Jones much to Peckinpah\u2019s dismay as he took a full-page ad to Variety to express what McQueen had done as well as give thanks to Fielding for his work. The film made its premiere in December of 1972 where it was a major critical and box office hit. The film would be Peckinpah\u2019s most commercially successful film of his career making more $36 million against its $3 million budget.\nDespite the commercial success and clout he received for The Getaway, Peckinpah wasn\u2019t sure about working with major studios again until actor/friend James Coburn heard about a project MGM wanted to make about Billy the Kid and his killer Pat Garrett. Peckinpah was intrigued by the project as he got a copy of Rudy Wurlitzer\u2019s screenplay as it was a film that was supposed to be helmed by Monte Hellman but he wasn\u2019t a big name. Peckinpah however, was a name with clout as Coburn was able to use his own power to get Peckinpah the job with Coburn playing the role of Pat Garrett. For the role of Billy the Kid, Peckinpah originally wanted Bo Hopkins but he wasn\u2019t a major name as he would go for someone completely different by choosing country music star Kris Kristofferson to play the role of Billy the Kid. Peckinpah would do re-writes on the script to express his own view of the West dying in favor of greed as he sees both Garrett and the Kid as men who are both struggling with the emergence of this new world that they don\u2019t want to be a part of.\nThe film\u2019s ensemble cast would be the biggest as it would include Jason Robards in a cameo role as New Mexico governor Lew Wallace as well as a famed collection of renowned Western character actors in Slim Pickens, Chill Wills, Katy Jurado, Jack Elam, Barry Sullivan, R.G. Armstrong, Paul Fix, and Elisha Cook Jr. as well as roles for actors such as Harry Dean Stanton, Charles Martin Smith, Luke Askew, and some of Peckinpah\u2019s regulars in Emilio Fernandez, L.Q. Jones, and Richard Bright. With Kristofferson already on board, the musician brought in one of his friends in Bob Dylan to the set as Peckinpah admittedly hadn\u2019t heard of Dylan or his music but gave Dylan the chance to not only play a small role in the film but also do the music. Just as Peckinpah was ready to start shooting with cinematographer John Coquillon, problems began to emerge as Peckinpah found himself dealing with MGM studio president James Aubrey.\nThe numerous clashes with Aubrey would take a toll on Peckinpah during the shoot as it would force the production to relocate to Durango, Mexico while equipment would break down as well as crew members being struck with the flu. The film which was initially budgeted at $3 million would escalate as the shooting schedule was behind leading to numerous re-shoots and other issues as it increased through Peckinpah\u2019s alcoholism. When shooting was completed in early 1973 with plans for a May release which Peckinpah felt was not long enough to do work. The post-production battle between Peckinpah and the studio became even more troublesome as the filmmaker was now gaining infamy for his reputation as being unreliable. Just before the film\u2019s release, Peckinpah and his editors were able to complete a 122-minute preview version for a number of critics along with filmmaker Martin Scorsese who attended the screening as it was very well-received. Unfortunately, MGM wasn\u2019t impressed as they locked Peckinpah out of the editing room to create cut of 106-minutes for its theatrical release.\nThe film\u2019s theatrical release in May of 1973 did do well commercially making $11 million against its $4.7 million budget but MGM felt it wasn\u2018t good enough while the critical reaction was poor. Some of the reviews mentioned the preview cut that some of them had seen as they felt Peckinpah was treated unfairly by MGM for what had happened. Rumblings about the 122-minute cut would be heard for many years as it was finally shown on home video in 1988 through Turner Home Entertainment as it was got rave reviews. In 2005, the film was once again released in a special edition version running at 115 minutes that featured elements of the theatrical version, the preview version, and footage that never made it to the final cut based on Peckinpah\u2019s notes for the film. While that version did get good reviews, many felt that the film in its preview version is one of the definitive westerns ever made.\nFrustrated with the way he was treated by MGM over his last film, Peckinpah decides to make one more western but it would be set in contemporary times as he picked up an old script he wrote with friend Frank Kowalski during the production of The Ballad of Cable Hogue. The film would be about a former army officer who is tasked to find the head of a man who had impregnated a crime boss\u2019 daughter where he encounters a load of trouble while collecting the bounty. Peckinpah would rewrite the script with Gordon Dawson as he was able to contact producer Martin Baum who read part of the script and was able to get funding from United Artists to get the film made with Peckinpah having complete control. For the lead role of Bennie, Peckinpah called in Warren Oates to star in the film as it would be a rare leading role for the character actor. Peckinpah regulars Kris Kristofferson and Emilio Fernandez would appear in the film with the latter playing the crime boss.\nThe cast would include Gig Young, Helmut Dantine, and Isela Vega as it would be shot largely in Mexico including Mexico City as Peckinpah would work with a largely Mexican crew including cinematographer Alex Phillips Jr. as shooting began in October of 1973. Despite Peckinpah\u2019s own struggle with alcoholism, the film would mirror Peckinpah\u2019s own disdain towards modern society as well as capitalism. Despite working with the Mexican crew and feeling free working in the country as he was able to work well despite the hard work it took. Peckinpah did become more of a pariah in Hollywood when he made some comments for Variety about labor as it upset some union groups in Hollywood. Peckinpah apologized for the comments as he was able to finish the shoot before the Christmas holidays and bought out a local bar with the producers for a surprise party for the crew. The post-production would be less hectic than the chaos Peckinpah endured in the last film as he and composer Jerry Fielding were able to take the time to create a soundtrack that played into the locations set in the film.\nThe film made its premiere in late August of 1974 as it was a major flop in the box office failing to recoup its modest $1.5 million budget while the critical response was savage with many upset over its nihilistic violence and story with some calling it one of the worst films ever made. However, there were a few that defended the film such as Roger Ebert who thought it was a masterpiece and would still maintain his opinion on the film in the coming years. While Peckinpah was proud of the film, he would be unable to see the critical re-evaluation the film would later receive as many felt it was misunderstood in its initial release as the film would also gain a cult following through rare showings on television as screenings for the film became an event in later years including a presentation in January of 2013 in Chicago where 300 people attended the screening during a snowstorm proving its stature as one of Peckinpah\u2019s triumphs.\nWith a reputation that was in need of repair and reeling from films that didn\u2019t make any money, Peckinpah decided to try and get himself back in the good graces of Hollywood just to work. Producer Martin Baum would help Peckinpah find a script as he found one that is based on a novel by Robert Syd Hopkins that revolved around betrayal and the emergence of a new world as it played into Peckinpah\u2019s sensibilities in his disdain for modernism. Peckinpah would read the script as it would be set in modern-day San Francisco that revolved around a spy who is betrayed by his best friend and left partially-paralyzed only to take an assignment to protect a Chinese political figure unaware of a power struggle behind the scenes for the company he works for.\nPeckinpah agreed to do the film but was learned that he would be unable to do rewrites or make changes to the script as it would be frustrating. While he would get James Caan and Robert Duvall in lead roles as well as getting a few of his regulars in Bo Hopkins, Gig Young, and Helmut Dantine in the film as well as noted characters Burt Young, Mako, and Arthur Hill. The production would be a difficult one due to the leash the film\u2019s producers and United Artist had on Peckinpah to deliver the film on time and on schedule. To cope with these setbacks, Peckinpah was unfortunately introduced to cocaine from Caan\u2019s entourage. The cocaine use would have Peckinpah be in his trailer for much of the production leaving assistant directors to direct some scenes as his cocaine use eventually lead to an overdose and heart surgery where he would get a second pacemaker. The post-production was much easier thanks to the fact that Peckinpah was able to get filmmaker/friend Monte Hellman to do some of the editing while Jerry Fielding would do the score as it would mark the last time the two would work together.\nThe film was released in late December of 1975 as it wasn\u2019t well-received by critics though it did well in the box office. Yet, the film marked the beginning of a major decline for Peckinpah as he was making films that weren\u2019t westerns as he would be offered numerous projects that Hollywood wanted. The growing disconnect he had with what he wants and what Hollywood wants would create this very uneasy and contentious relationship for the director who was in for some troubling times.\nAfter turning down offers to do a remake of King Kong as well as helm Superman, Peckinpah decided to do something that wasn\u2019t a film that would be very commercial. Yet, Peckinpah\u2019s popularity in Europe as still vital as producer Wolf C. Hartwig offered Peckinpah the chance to make a World War II movie based Willi Heinrich\u2019s novel The Willing Flesh. With the help from British producers who wanted to see the film made, Peckinpah agreed to do the film as he was able to get Julius J. Epstein, James Hamilton, and Walter Kelley to write the script with Peckinpah doing un-credited rewrites. The would be an anti-war film in some ways told from the perspective of the Germans during the conflict at the Taman Peninsula against the Soviets. Yet, it would be more about a class conflict between a cynical sergeant and an aristocratic Prussian officer as the latter is craving the Iron Cross medal.\nWith the exception of cinematographer John Coquillon, Peckinpah would be forced to work with a low $6 million budget as well as an inexperienced crew of West German and British workers. Despite these setbacks, Peckinpah was able to get James Coburn to play the lead role of Sgt. Steiner as well as David Warner playing the role of Captain Kriesel while the cast would mostly be noted character actors with the exception of the renowned James Mason as Colonel Brandt and Maximilian Schell as the aristocratic Captain Stransky. The film would be shot in parts of Croatia and Slovenia when it was known as part of Yugoslavia as Peckinpah wanted to create something that was real where he was able to get real tanks and equipment from World War II for the film. While Peckinpah struggled to contain his alcoholism as well as the little money he was able to use. He did use his experience in low-budget filmmaking to get things done which help him in the long run as shooting was finished in mid-1976.\nThe film would make its premiere in West Germany in late January of 1977 following a British premiere less than two months later as the film was well-received in Europe and did well commercially in those countries. When it was released in the U.S. in the summer of that year, it had the unfortunate timing of being released around the time Star Wars had come out. The film sunk without a trace in the U.S. as its critical response was lukewarm with critics trashing the film over its bleak content. Yet, the film would have its champions including filmmaker Orson Welles who thought it was one of the best war films he had ever seen. Critical re-evaluation for the film would later come as it was also praised by filmmaker Quentin Tarantino who was inspired by the film into his own World War II film in 2009\u2019s Inglourious Basterds. For those close to Peckinpah, the film was seen as the last great film that he would make.\nWhile trying to find his next project as he would make a cameo appearance for Monte Hellman\u2019s 1978 western China 9, Liberty 37 starring Warren Oates, Jenny Agutter, and Fabio Testi that was co-written by one of Peckinpah\u2019s longtime fans in future Z Channel programmer Jerry Harvey. It was around the time that the era of the blockbuster had arrived as Peckinpah decided to make a film that would appeal to the masses as he had seen Hal Needham\u2019s Smokey and the Bandit and saw how successful it was. Peckinpah decided to do a film in the same vein as those who were closest to him were baffled into why he would do it as it didn\u2019t fit in with the themes of his other films in its disdain towards modernism and the loss of old values. Yet, Peckinpah decided to make a film based on a popular 1975 novelty song by C.W. McCall as Peckinpah hired Bill L. Norton to write the script as it would revolve around a gang of truckers who form a convoy as they run from a corrupt sheriff through the American Southwest.\nThe cast would feature some of Peckinpah\u2019s regulars in Kris Kristofferson, Burt Young, Ernest Borgnine, and Ali MacGraw in her first role since The Getaway along with Franklyn Ajaye, Madge Sinclair, and Seymour Cassel in supporting roles. The film would be shot largely in New Mexico as it would be shot in late spring as Peckinpah read Norton\u2019s finished script and didn\u2019t like it as he allowed his actors to improvise and ad-lib lines to create some spontaneity. The shooting proved to be struggling due to Peckinpah becoming very ill due to years of substance abuse as he asked actor/friend James Coburn to shoot some second unit and eventually some scenes while Peckinpah was in his trailer doing drugs and alcohol to cope with the turmoil of the production. It added to a lot of the troubles in the production as it would eventually be completed in September of 1977 11 days behind schedule and doubling the film\u2019s original $6 million budget.\nAfter submitting a rough cut of the film at nearly three-and-a-half hours to EMI Films, the studio rejected Peckinpah\u2019s cut as they asked Garth Craven to edit the film without Peckinpah\u2019s involvement into a one-hour and fifty-minute final cut that was released in late June of 1978. The film would gross more than $45 million making it Peckinpah\u2019s most commercially successful film to date but the critical reception was brutal as many were baffled into why Peckinpah made a film that featured some of visual attributes be seen as parody as well as make something that was silly. The critical response as well as Peckinpah\u2019s own failing health in his addiction to alcohol and cocaine would make him a pariah in the industry as Hollywood wanted nothing to do with him. For Peckinpah, he would be out of the job for the next few years as he would toil in his own failing health until 1981 when his old mentor Don Siegel offered him the chance to direct some second unit for what would be Siegel\u2019s final film in 1982\u2019s Jinxed! Despite the film\u2019s extremely troubled production that included Siegel suffering a heart attack, Peckinpah\u2019s work, though un-credited, for the project would give him one final chance in the industry.\nIn 1982 despite his failing health, Peckinpah was approached by producers Peter S. Davis and Walter Panzer about helming a project based on a novel by the revered spy novelist Robert Ludlum who later gain fame for writing books on the character Jason Bourne. The story revolved around the world of surveillance where a controversial TV news show host is being asked by the CIA to invite his friends for a weekend outing as they believe his friends are spies for the KGB. While studios weren\u2019t sure about wanting Peckinpah involved, Davis and Panzer stood by him feeling the project would have some respectability which would force them to find independent funding for the film. While Peckinpah admitted to not liking Ludlum\u2019s novel or Alan Sharp\u2019s script which was a draft, he did take the job while helping Sharp with ideas for the script.\nWith the exception of cinematographer John Coquillon and actress Cassie Yates who had a small role in Convoy, Peckinpah would work entirely with a new crew and actors he had never worked with yet many of them were eager to work with the director. The ensemble would include Yates, Rutger Hauer, John Hurt, Craig T. Nelson, Dennis Hopper, Meg Foster, Chris Sarandon, Helen Shaver, and Burt Lancaster as they all forgo their regular salaries as production began in the fall of 1982 around Los Angeles. The production was surprisingly smooth and in control yet Peckinpah found himself in familiar territory with his producers over the film as the 54-day shoot ended in January of 1983 as Peckinpah was barely speaking to Davis and Panzer. By the time the film was in the editing stages as Peckinpah was able to get Don Siegel\u2019s longtime composer Lalo Schifrin to do the music, he would eventually submit his cut of the film at 116-minutes to Davis and Panzer in May of 1983.\nUnfortunately, things didn\u2019t go well as Davis and Panzer test-screened the film to an audience as it did poorly asking Peckinpah to re-cut the film but Peckinpah refused as he also had ideas to include bits of satire into the film that he had already filmed. The result had Davis and Panzer firing Peckinpah and they would re-cut the film for a final 106-minute running time that was released in December of 1983 to lukewarm reviews as it also did poorly in the U.S. box office making only $6 million against its modest $7 million. In Europe and Britain, the film was a hit on home video as it would later be considered a cult film as some felt the film featured some of Peckinpah\u2019s finest moments in a very flawed film.\nJulian Lennon-Valotte and Too Late for Goodbyes\nHaving burned another bridge in Hollywood, Peckinpah was given an offer by British industry figure Martin Lewis about directing a music video for Julian Lennon for his upcoming debut album Valotte that was to be released in October of 1984. Peckinpah agreed to do the video for the emerging artist as well as doing another one as it would something simple and to the point. The videos would be immensely successful in repeated airings on MTV as it would give Lennon a nomination for Best New Artist at the MTV Video Music Awards in 1985. Sadly, the videos would be Peckinpah\u2019s final work as plans to create a film version of Stephen King\u2019s The Regulators with a script in the works by King whom he had befriended. On December 28, 1984, Peckinpah died of heart failure at the Murray Hotel in Livingston, Montana which he had lived for five years.\nThough it\u2019s been more than 30 years since his passing and while he remains a controversial figure in cinema. There is no question the impact that Sam Peckinpah had for cinema whether it\u2019s Hollywood filmmaking taking his style of multiple camera angles and slow-motion for elaborate action scenes to filmmakers such as Quentin Tarantino, Ben Wheatley, Robert Rodriguez, and Edgar Wright citing his films as major influences in their work. Peckinpah\u2019s influence in cinema is immense in not just the way men deal with the modern world and changes that don\u2019t suit their old-school values as his films have more relevance today in this ever-increasing world where humanity has become sucked in by technology. After all, if there is anyone that can be called a master of \u201cfuck-you\u201d cinema. It\u2019s Sam Peckinpah.\nLabels: sam peckinpah, the auteurs\nWhat a tremendous piece. Peckinpah was definitely an amazing talent but sometimes it can be easy to forget just how the strength of his career. Anxious to dive back into this article again. Good stuff.\n@keith71_98-Thank you. I hope you check out some of his films as the man was a master and certainly was someone that had a lot of balls.\nThis was great, so much depth - and I had no idea about the music videos. It shouldn't, but I'm always surprised not by who got their start in music videos, but who does them even after success.\n@assholeswatchingmovies.com-William Friedkin directed Laura Branigan's \"Self Control\" back in 1985. Some did it just for work and such and it was good so it shouldn't be a total surprise. I think it was surprising for someone like Peckinpah towards the end of his life but I'm sure he saw something in Julian Lennon and just did those videos.",

        "raw_content": "Easter and Mother's Day\nI ended the last blog promising Easter pictures and now that we are almost halfway through May, I am finally following through. We had a wonderful Easter! The day before Easter we went to a party at our NICU roomies (Alex and Will) grandparents\u2019 house. They live on a beautiful piece of land and had marked off different sections for different age groups to hunt eggs (annual tradition). The Easter Bunny was there and Brooklyn wanted to sit in his lap. Tayden, as usual, wanted no part of even looking at him. We all had a great time!\nThe next morning, the Easter Bunny definitely found our house and brought the twins a lot of goodies. We went to my mom\u2019s house for a delicious lunch and an egg hunt. This was the first year the twins could actually hunt eggs outside because it rained last year. They had a blast! That night we dyed eggs (Mickey Mouse and friends kit) and then had a glow in the dark egg hunt in our living room. After finding all of the eggs, the kids took the glow in the dark necklace out of each egg and wanted to link them together and make jump ropes and then pull them apart to make letters. We kept the necklaces in the freezer and were able to repeat these activities a few nights in a row. We were able to do confetti eggs for the time as well and they were a huge hit. I personally believe they should be available for purchase year round!\nIn April we took part in the March of Dimes Walk for Babies. This year our team raised $200! Thank you so much for those of you who donated to our team and to those of you who came out to walk with us. Our team gets bigger every year and we love it! This annual event is always a wonderful reminder of Brooklyn and Tayden\u2019s journey. They started out so small and so weak, yet have grown into strong, healthy little people. There are so many reminders along the route of families that have suffered unbearable loss \u2013 a strong reminder of how much God has truly blessed us. I like to think of the walk as a celebration of life for our family. I love that the walk always falls in April, which is the month we finally brought the twins home from the NICU \u2013 a very large hurdle we overcame.\nThe twins still LOVE their school. They always come home with amazing crafts and a new abundance of knowledge. At the close of their first \u201cschool experience\u201d I absolutely feel that they were in the most amazing school with the most amazing teachers and friends \u2013 what a blessing! We are already excited for what next year holds for them. After today, they only have two weeks left, and I have four weeks! I cannot believe that an entire school year is almost over. I have started trying to schedule activities that will keep all four of us busy this summer. I have many field trips in mind as well as a daily schedule to reinforce letters, numbers, etc. We signed Tayden up for a summer Kindermusik class and are going to sign Brooklyn up for gymnastics. We figured that this would be a good opportunity to let them start developing their interests individually. Tim and I will take turns taking them to their activities so that we can have some one-on-one time with them.\nSpeaking of one-on-one time, my mom and Brooklyn had a slumber party this past weekend. She was so excited all day about going to SueSue\u2019s and even wanted to pick out which pajamas she was going to wear. She came home the next morning with hot pink fingernails and toenails. She thought that was the coolest thing ever and loves showing them off to everyone. While Brooklyn was gone, Tim and I took Tayden to Barnes and Noble. He had been very sad that he didn\u2019t get to go to the slumber party. Brooklyn kept saying, \u201cIt\u2019s okay buddy, it will be your turn next.\u201d You would think that his favorite part would\u2019ve been the children\u2019s area with hundreds of books, but no \u2013 the escalator was the clear winner. One side was broken so we rode up and walked down about ten times. It was nice to spend time with him and see how he handles things without his trusty sidekick. When SueSue came back with Brooklyn in the morning, he was ready for his turn. We had to explain that it would be a few days. He would\u2019ve gone this weekend, but he got sick over the weekend with an upper respiratory infection. We spent part of Mother\u2019s Day at the Pediatric Urgent Care clinic by our house. They gave him steroids, an antibiotic, and a strong cough medicine.\nTim is doing well. His real estate business is thriving, which is truly a blessing. He has many contracts in process, and a busy summer ahead with all of the leads he has established. He has started an online course to get his Emergency Medical Technician certification. He must finish all of his coursework online and then attend a one week class at the school so that he can complete all of his hands-on labs. After completing those, he must do a certain number of ride-outs on an ambulance as well as complete a specific # of hours in the ER. He had this certification years ago before entering Collections. It has always been his passion to get back in the medical field, especially after our two months in the NICU with the twins.\nAs for me, my job is going very well. I have finished two major administrations of the STAAR test, and have two more to go (one of which starts tomorrow). I am learning valuable new things every day. I made the decision to apply for the Assistant Principal pool this year. I am praying that if it is meant to be it will be, but if not, I am completely happy as a data analyst and testing coordinator.\nNow, for some of the hilarious things that we hear each day. We have always referred to private anatomy by the proper name. Now that the twins are using the potty (Tayden is going more and more on the potty!), they use this language more frequently. Tim and I can\u2019t help but laugh hysterically with some of the things they come up with. We were in the car and Brooklyn had just used the potty at our last stop. She said, \u201cI need to go pee pee.\u201d I told her that she would need to wait a few minutes and reminded her that she had just gone. Her response was, \u201cI still have pee pee in my v*****.\u201d Tim and I had to look at our windows and couldn\u2019t respond because we were literally speechless. Somewhere along the way, Tim trained Tayden to call his dangling participle his \u201cmonster.\u201d Everytime I would change his diaper he would say, (in a deep voice) \u201cThat\u2019s a monster!\u201d I can only imagine what his sweet teachers at school thought about this. Brooklyn then picked up on it and would say, \u201cMommy, this is my monster.\u201d Tim and I had a little chat and I told him that we needed to change this quickly, and that if we were ever called to school to discuss this situation, it would be him that would attend the meeting. That night he told Tayden, \u201cFrom now on, we are going to call it your boyhood.\u201d Brooklyn was listening and said, \u201cWell then, this is my girlhood.\u201d Hilarious!!! Yesterday Brooklyn was playing with Elmo and wanted to know why he didn\u2019t have a v****** or a neckis. I am completely unprepared for these conversations, and they always catch me completely off guard.\nBrooklyn is a total social butterfly. Everywhere we go, she will go up to anyone we come in contact with and ask them their name, last name, and mother\u2019s name. Yesterday we went to breakfast for Mother\u2019s Day and she was going around the restaurant telling everyone, \u201cHappy Mother\u2019s Day.\u201d She loves performing for any audience she can find. She will say, \u201cI am Brooklyn the singer!!!\u201d or \u201cI\u2019m ready for my close-up!!\u201d Where does she come up with this stuff? She has fallen in love with books and once I have read a book to her once or twice, she can \u201cre-read\u201d the story using the exact intonation that I used. Her memory blows me away! She will include every single detail. She continues to be super compassionate. She will come up to me and say, \u201cCan I give you a hug and a kiss?\u201d Then she will say, \u201cI love you so much and I missed you so much!\u201d Melts my heart every time!!\nTayden still is a bit shy when meeting new people. He still mumbles and stomps around, which is adorable. He loves his instruments and anytime we start singing, he will run to the playroom to get everyone an instrument. He has started writing his name and can do T and A. He loves talking about letter, sounds, and counting. He can name the days of the week and the months of the year, but not always in order. He loves going outside to ride his tricycle. He also enjoys filling up one of my old teacher bags with random toys and putting it on his bike as he rides around. I will ask him what he has in his bag and he will say, \u201cJust some fings.\u201d He has the cutest responses to questions \u2013 \u201cTayden, did you have fun at school?\u201d \u201cI did!\u201d \u201cTayden did you eat your dinner?\u201d \u201cI didn\u2019t.\u201d He gives wonderful hugs and kisses and still loves snuggling with me, especially when he is sick. He is always full of information. Brooklyn got in trouble at school one day for not staying on her napmat at naptime. When I asked her why she got in trouble she said, \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d I asked him, and he gave me the full story.\nA few weeks ago, the girls of the family \u2013 my mom, sisters, niece, and me, went to see Wicked. I had no idea what to expect. The music was fabulous and the chance to spend time with my family was awesome! We definitely need to make that an annual tradition.\nWe celebrated Mother\u2019s Day with my whole family on Saturday night by having dinner at Sweetie Pie\u2019s Ribeyes (DELICIOUS)!!!!!! Yesterday, I was treated to a yummy breakfast at a diner by our house and then spent the day hanging out with Tim and the twins. The twins made me beautiful Mother\u2019s Day tote bags and little signs with their handprints (at school). They also made me bracelets and noodle necklaces. It was humorous that Brooklyn's bracelet was full of beads and her necklace full of noodles, whereas Tayden's bracelet had one bead and his necklace had one noodle. He is a man that values the beauty of simplicity. Tim got me a gift certificate to the nail salon and a new phone!!! I feel extremely blessed to have two amazing, beautiful, healthy children. They are my precious gifts every day. I thank God daily for entrusting me with their care. It is a great responsibility and the most important job I will ever have. I am also grateful for Tim \u2013 who chose me to be his wife and the mother of his children. My most favorite times in life are when I am with my little family making memories.\nI am honored to have a mother that I also consider one of my very best friends. I have always loved her and appreciated her, but since becoming a mom myself, my love, appreciation, and admiration has increased greatly. She is one of the first people I call when something good or bad happens. She celebrates my victories and helps my overcome my defeats. My mom raised us to love the Lord, to be kind and nurture others, to be independent thinkers, to treat others the way we want to be treated, to always give our best, and to love unconditionally. She provided us with an amazing example of what a Godly wife and mother should be. I pray that I will have the type of relationship I have with her, with Brooklyn and Tayden when they are adults. I love you mom and will forever be grateful for your constant love, encouragement, and support.\nEaster sacks the twins made at school\nhiding from the Easter bunny\nBrooklyn was thrilled\nThe Easter bunny strikes again\nready to see what the Easter bunny brought\nEaster lunch at SueSue's\ndapper little man\nBrooklyn had an accident and wore Poppy's shirt while her clothes were drying.

        "raw_content": "Ring Ting Tingling\nIt's Finally Okay to Play Christmas Music\nSo you know how Bill Maher has that \u201cNew Rules\u201d segment where he lays down the law? Like, \u201cNew rule: Cheetos bags have to come with their own Wet-Naps now,\u201d or, \u201cNew rule: Sarah Palin has to pay me for all the brain cells I\u2019ve lost listening to her,\u201d or something like that? Well, I\u2019ve got one for you this week.\nNew rule: Christmas music is only acceptable between the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas day. That\u2019s it. I don\u2019t want to hear \u201cDeck the Halls\u201d in my local mall before Halloween, and I don\u2019t want to hear \u201cFrosty the Snowman\u201d in January, when the spirit has well and truly worn off. For those 30 or so days, have at it \u2013 bombard me with Christmas tunes all you like. But keep it confined to those 30 days.\nNow, before you accuse me of having a heart two sizes too small, I should tell you I love Christmas music. I buy loads of it each year, and I\u2019m always interested to hear my favorite artists take on these old chestnuts. (Marillion doing \u201cGabriel\u2019s Message\u201d? Magic.) But confining it to one month out of the year keeps it special for me. It\u2019s like egg nog, perhaps my favorite beverage on earth. The fact that I can only get it for two months at the end of each year makes it a treat, and the longing, especially as the summer months wind on, is half the joy.\nI will often buy Christmas albums before Thanksgiving, and not listen to them until after. Here\u2019s a good case in point: the Indigo Girls released their first Christmas album, Holly Happy Days, on October 12. I bought it on October 12, and promptly filed it. And on November 26, the day after turkey genocide day, I pressed play and reveled in it.\nNow, I\u2019ve had issues with some of the more recent Indigo Girls records. I still think they\u2019re marvelous singers, particularly when their voices intertwine, but lately they\u2019ve been pretty lazy writers, content to spin out some major-key chords and winsome lyrics and call it good. Their last one, 2009\u2019s Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, came in two versions \u2013 a full-band effort and an acoustic rendering \u2013 and I still don\u2019t remember those songs. In some ways, they\u2019re trying too hard, and in others, not hard enough.\nBut this? This is great. Holly Happy Days catches the Girls in a relaxed, yet exploratory mood, and I love every minute of it. Gone is the slick production of the past few albums, and in its place is a ramshackle, recorded-in-a-week feel that suits them. The album is made up of traditional songs like \u201cO Holy Night\u201d and \u201cAngels We Have Heard on High,\u201d but also contains three originals \u2013 two by Amy Ray, one from Emily Saliers \u2013 and some surprise covers.\nIt opens with a hoedown-style rip through Joe Isaacs\u2019 \u201cI Feel the Christmas Spirit,\u201d with some bluegrass heavy hitters on board, like Victor Krauss and Luke Bulla. (The all-star band sticks around for the whole album, and they\u2019re invaluable.) The Girls\u2019 take on Chely Wright\u2019s \u201cIt Really Is (A Wonderful Life)\u201d sums up the spirit of the record \u2013 it\u2019s sweet and genuine, sparse and yet as full as it needs to be. The Girls arrange \u201cI\u2019ll Be Home for Christmas\u201d as if they\u2019re recording it to wax cylinder in the early 1900s, and they lend a glorious reading of \u201cPeace Child\u201d some real spiritual heft.\nThe originals are wonderful too. Ray\u2019s \u201cThe Wonder Song\u201d is another bluegrass hootenanny, but her \u201cMistletoe\u201d is classic Amy Ray, simple and heartbreaking. It\u2019s a plea for love, no matter how fleeting: \u201cWhile the yule fire burns on, please baby please, just let this love be.\u201d Saliers\u2019 \u201cYour Holiday Song\u201d is a call for tolerance and understanding (\u201cNo more one true right or wrong, when our faith calls our name, someone else\u2019s does the same\u2026\u201d) set to a gorgeous melody.\nFor all that, my favorite thing here is \u201cIn the Bleak Midwinter.\u201d The musical arrangement is traditional, but the Girls wrap their voices around one another, and even invite Brandi Carlisle in to provide a third harmony. By the end, the magic they\u2019ve spun together will move and delight you. The Indigo Girls have been singing together for 25 years now, and they still find new ways to prove how perfect their voices are together.\nHolly Happy Days fills my yearly quota of holiday records from artists I love all by itself. It\u2019s not only a great Christmas disc, it\u2019s a great Indigo Girls record. Just listen to Saliers and Ray wrap their wonderful voices around the closer, Beth Nielsen Chapman\u2019s \u201cThere\u2019s Still My Joy,\u201d and tell me you\u2019ve heard anything as beautiful all year. I really didn\u2019t need to buy any other Christmas records.\nBut I did anyway. F\u2019rinstance, here\u2019s KT Tunstall\u2019s six-song EP Have Yourself a Very KT Christmas. With a title like that, you\u2019d be forgiven for thinking the Scottish songstress didn\u2019t take this one very seriously, but you\u2019d be wrong. Tunstall clearly worked on this with the same dedication she throws into everything she does. Here\u2019s a list of instruments she played on these songs: guitar, bass, xylophone, harmonium, toy piano, glockenspiel, penny whistle, melodica. Oh, and at one point, she overdubs herself into a kazoo choir.\nThere are no originals on here, but her cover choices are fascinating. The disc opens with the Pretenders\u2019 \u201c2000 Miles,\u201d from way back in 1983. Tunstall does it rave-up style, keeping her voice just on the safe side of Melissa Etheridge. She then turns in a rocking doo-wop take on Phil Spector\u2019s immortal \u201cChristmas (Baby Please Come Home),\u201d and spins 180 degrees for a Hawaiian percussion party on R. Alex Anderson\u2019s \u201cMele Kalikimaka (Christmas in Hawaii).\u201d (That\u2019s the one with the kazoo choir.)\nThe keeper here, however, is Tunstall\u2019s reverent and committed run-through of the Pogues\u2019 \u201cFairytale of New York.\u201d The song first appeared in 1987, and was included on the band\u2019s outstanding If I Should Fall From Grace With God album in 1988. Tunstall invites British singer Ed Harcourt to play piano and sing, and together, they do justice to an absolutely splendid song. Tunstall takes the parts originally sung by Kristy MacColl, and she plays a mean penny whistle to boot.\nTunstall tops everything off with a sparse version of Mud\u2019s obscure ditty \u201cLonely This Christmas,\u201d and it\u2019s just great. Despite its silly title, Have Yourself a Very KT Christmas is a too-brief slice of joy. I liked it a lot.\nChristmas just isn\u2019t Christmas without a slapdash various artists compilation, though, and Warner Bros. has obliged this year with Gift Wrapped: A Change in Season. Now, Gift Wrapped actually started last year, with a 20-track download-only collection of Christmas tunes old and new. There\u2019s a second volume out now, with an additional 23 tracks. But they\u2019re only available online. A Change in Season is a sampler of those two compilations, available on CD in independent record stores. And that\u2019s the one I picked up.\nAnd let me tell you, this thing is strange. It starts with a new year\u2019s song, \u201cMy Dear Acquaintance,\u201d performed on piano by Regina Spektor, then slams into \u201cChristmas in the City,\u201d a synth-y, Pink Floyd-esque number by Everest. Nothing here is very Christmas until you get to Los Lobos\u2019 \u201cRudolph the Manic Reindeer,\u201d a too-brief instrumental jam played with the L.A. band\u2019s typical verve. Then comes an original Throwing Muses song, \u201cSanta Claus,\u201d that sounds like\u2026 well, a Throwing Muses song.\nOther bits of weirdness: Foxy Shazam presents a massive, overblown, kind of terrific take on \u201cWalking in the Air,\u201d from the 1982 animated film The Snowman. The Bodeans turn in a weak two-minute ditty called \u201cJinga Bell Rock,\u201d with a children\u2019s choir, while Soul Coughing\u2019s old take on \u201cSuzy Snowflake\u201d is included, much to my delight. (I think this is the oldest recording here, dating back to the late \u201890s.) (Update: My friend Chris L\u2019Etoile informs me that the Throwing Muses song is from 1989. Thanks!) Devo contributes an original that rips all religions, called \u201cMerry Something to You,\u201d and Stardeath and White Dwarfs take on (believe it or not) George Michael\u2019s \u201cLast Christmas,\u201d and they do it seriously.\nThe record ends with the old Flaming Lips tune \u201cA Change at Christmas (Say it Isn\u2019t So),\u201d originally released as a b-side in 2003, and it\u2019s one of the best, most consistent things here. That says a lot. Perhaps I will throw down for the complete Gift Wrapped sets on iTunes, but based on what I\u2019m hearing here, I may not bother. This is inconsistent and just plain bizarre stuff.\nFaring much better is Quiet Company, one of my favorite bands around right now. A Merry Little Christmas is a three-song EP of traditionals done in the Austin quartet\u2019s dramatic pop style. Taylor Muse and company take these songs seriously, and arrange them like original tunes. \u201cHave Yourself a Merry Little Christmas\u201d is delightful, the band raving up during the \u201chere we are as in olden days\u201d section and closing things out with a \u201cna na na\u201d refrain. \u201cAngels We Have Heard on High\u201d is also swell, done as a piano-pounding Beatlesque power pop workout. (And then there are the kazoos\u2026)\nBut it\u2019s \u201cO Holy Night\u201d that will knock you out. This has always been one of my favorite carols, with its endlessly building melody, and it\u2019s perfect for the QuietCo treatment. Muse starts it out with just a piano and his voice, but before long Jeff Weathers\u2019 drums are crashing in, and the harmonies start building. The ending is magnificent, Muse reaching for the high note on \u201cdivine,\u201d the band exploding around him, and then dropping away, leaving nothing but the piano again. In many ways, they turn this century-and-a-half-old classic into a Quiet Company song, and that\u2019s the greatest compliment I can give.\nYou can hear all of A Merry Little Christmas, and name your price to download it, at QuietCo\u2019s Bandcamp site. Just remember to stop listening to it after December 25. New rule and all.\nOkay, since I mentioned KT Tunstall and the Indigo Girls, I should probably say that Tunstall\u2019s third album, Tiger Suit, is excellent, seamlessly blending new electronic flourishes with her more earthy songwriting, and the Indigos\u2019 first release of the year, a double live record called Staring Down the Brilliant Dream, is terrific. There\u2019s just too much music, and I can\u2019t get to all of it.\nAnd since Tunstall\u2019s album and Gift Wrapped were both limited releases for Black Vinyl Friday (my favorite nickname for the mini-Record Store Day event on the day after Thanksgiving), I should probably mention the other things I bought. I don\u2019t do the vinyl, but if I did, I would have bought a whole host of goodies. As it was, I picked up a teaser for Iron and Wine\u2019s new album (dark and full and rich and very good), and Metallica\u2019s Live at Grimey\u2019s, which proves in nine songs that the band can still bring it. Yes, they can still play \u201cMotorbreath,\u201d and yes, they can play it well.\nOne more thing I ought to say before I go. I don\u2019t want to make a big deal of this, since I went all out for the 500th, but the first ever online TM3AM column went out on November 29, 2000. Which means that as of two days ago, I\u2019ve been doing this for 10 years. I often said during the early years that I\u2019d do this for a decade and see how I feel. Well, I feel really good. So here\u2019s to another 10, if I can do it. And thanks to all of you who have come along for the ride.\nNext week, we start our end-of-the-year festivities, with a look at some worthy records rendered ineligible for the top 10 list. After that, the honorable mentions, the list itself, Fifty Second Week, and then it\u2019ll be 2011. Time flies.",

Both commercial stationers and freight forwarders carry packing list forms.\nThe Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property, adopted in 1884 with 14 member States, was the first major international treaty designed to help the people of one country obtain protection in other countries for their intellectual creations in the form of industrial property rights, known as inventions (patents), trademarks, and industrial designs\nA patent grants a property right to an inventor. Utility patents are for inventions or discoveries of a new and useful process, machine, article of manufacture, or composition of matter, or a new and useful improvement thereof. Design patents are for inventions of a new, original, and ornamental design for an article of manufacture. U.S. patents are issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Generally, a new U.S. patent is good for 20 years and are effective only within the U.S., U.S. territories, and U.S. possessions. Under certain circumstances, patent term extensions or adjustments may be available. The patent grants\nU.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) and U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)\nThe PCT facilitates the filing of applications for patents on the same invention in member countries. It provides for centralized filing procedures whereby a single application filed in a PCT governmental receiving office can constitute an application for patent in one or more (including all) member countries.\nPCT Information Service\nThe aim of the Patent Law Treaty (PLT) is to harmonize and streamline formal procedures in respect of national and regional patent applications and patents, and thus to make such procedures more user-friendly. With the significant exception of the filing date requirements, the PLT provides maximum sets of requirements, which the Office of a Contracting Party may apply. This means that a Contracting Party is free to provide for requirements that are more generous from the viewpoint of applicants and owners, but are mandatory as to the maximum that an Office can require from applicants or owners.\nPecan Fee\nAn assessment collected on imported shelled and in-shell pecans. The class code is 057.\nPipeline and Hazardouz Materials Administration (PHMSA) is an agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) that works to ensure the safe and secure movement of hazardous materials to industry and consumers by all transportation modes, including the nation's pipelines. PHMSA was signed into law on November 20, 2004. The creation of PHMSA provides the Department a modal administration focused solely on its pipeline and hazardous materials transportation programs. Through PHMSA, the Department develops and enforces regulations for the safe, reliable, and environmentally sound operation of the nation's 2.3 million mile pipeline transportation system and the nearly 1 million daily shipments of hazardous materials by land, sea, and air.\nPipeline and Hazardous Material Safety Administration (PHMSA)\nA phytosanitary certificate is a document often required by many states and foreign countries for the import of nonprocessed, plant products. The word phytosanitary is derived from two Greek words\u2026phyto meaning plant and sanitary, meaning clean. Export commodities (depending on the country or state) must meet certain standards or criteria outlined by the importing country or state. These plant health requirements pertain to storage pests, plant diseases, chemical treatments and weeds. Some countries require a growing season inspection of the field from which a plant product is harvested before a certificate may be issued, particularly if the product is seed to be used for propagation. The objective of the certification process is to facilitate the entry of U.S. origin plant or plant products into the country of destination. This is accomplished by certifying that the plants or plant products were inspected and conform to any phytosanitary entry requirements the importing country has set prior to leaving the U.S. port.\nPOD - Port (Point) of Delivery: Port where cargo is unloaded from vessel.\nPorts of entry are responsible for daily port specific operations. There are 327 official ports of entry in the United States and 15 Preclearance offices in Canada and the Caribbean. Port personnel are the face at the border for most cargo and visitors entering the United States. Here CBP enforces the import and export laws and regulations of the U.S. federal government and conducts immigration policy and programs. Ports also perform agriculture inspections to protect the USA from potential carriers of animal and plant pests or diseases that could cause serious damage to America's crops, livestock, pets, and the environment.\nU.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP))\nThe U.S. port of call in which cargo shipments are discharged.\nPotato Fee\nAn assessment collected on imported tablestock potatoes, processed potato products and seed potatoes. The class code is 090.\nA pro forma invoice is a document that states a commitment from the seller to provide specified goods to the buyer at specific prices. It is often used to declare value for customs. It is not a true invoice, because the seller does not record a pro forma invoice as an accounts receivable and the buyer does not record a pro forma invoice as an accounts payable. A pro forma invoice is not issued by the seller until the seller and buyer have agreed to the terms of the order. In few cases, pro forma invoice is issued for obtaining advance payments from buyer, either for start of production or for security of the goods produced.\nPreshipment Inspection (PSI). The checking of goods before shipment for the purpose of determining the quantity and/or quality of said goods by an independent surveyor (inspection company) for phytosanitary, sanitary and veterinary controls. Presently there is a tendency by developing countries to use the inspection also for the purpose of determining whether the price charged for certain goods is correct.",

        "raw_content": "Auto Transport Companies in Orlando, FL\nThe World Wide Web makes it very easy for almost any person to contract a service. Employing a vehicle shipping company is one of these. A simple search shows you all the companies inside the Orlando, FL area. It is simple to get access to the expenses so you will know right away what you're getting into. Do not forget that from time to time having to pay less at the start means plenty of hassle in the end.\nIf you wish to be effective, be aware that this might require some time. You need to find a business that offers the services you're looking for at a good cost. All that revolves around what you require. The best thing however is that you'll discover tons of reviews online. In there you'll discover informations about mishaps, business background and services.\nAll things considered the really hard work has been carried out, it's time for the reservation. Don't forget to request a confirmation email or fax as this may come in handy. Take into account that you then have to prepare your car for transportation. Get all of your stuff out of the automobile. If you don't do that, the vehicle shipping company isn't liable if your things go missing or damaged. Another thing to keep in mind will be to empty your fuel tank. This way the load gets lighter, the company saves money on fuel and you pay way less for their assistance. One more tip may be to wash your automobile so that you can see just about any dent or scratch that could occur during the transport.\nIn the event the Orlando, FL auto transport firm sends the carrier for the pick up, make sure the driver inspects your vehicle for existing deterioration. All of the notes must then go on a vehicle condition report which will be a double signed copy. Hang on to yours because this can come in handy in Orlando. At the same time, carry out yet another check for damages as soon as your vehicle arrives. Don't ignore anything at all as this is your only possibility to claim destruction. If that's the situation, request the carrier to note in the condition report, sign it and provide you with a copy.\nIt's truly simple in Orlando, FL to deliver vehicles because there are a lot of companies from which to select. The most important thing you control is the leaving and arrival date of your transport. Don't settle for cheaper offers when they are not really offering the same quality services as others. Do not pay before the car has arrived!\nMore from Orlando, FL\nContact Us in Orlando, FL",

        "title": "//2: Simon Robb - Alien Sick",
        "raw_content": "Alien Sick\nSimon Robb\n1. What manner of man is this, or what manner of creature is it in the semblance of man? I feel the dread of this horrible place overpowering me; I am in fear,in awful fear, and there is no escape for me; I am encompassed about with terrors that I dare not think of. . . .\n2. He's looking down at me. He's got a ruler in his hand. Has a tip of silver. Touches me. I see pictures of the world just blowing up (Long pause). I see pictures of the whole place just blowing up when he touches my head with this thing (Weeps).\n3. Looking implies that the object viewed covers and uncovers itself, that it disappears at every instant, for looking involves a kind of oscillation. These images however, are not caught in a game of emergence and disappearance. The body is already there without even the faintest glimmer of a possible absence, in a state of radical disillusion; the state of pure presence.\n4. Shuddering at the memory, Kelly says that out of nowhere a tall, black figure began moving toward them. \"I had expected to see a human being, but this was not human - its shape was all wrong,\" she says. \"I was overwhelmed by the most horrifying fear. The creature's eyes seemed to turn to a red fire.\" Suddenly there were many more creatures, a mass of glowing red eyes gliding across the field towards them. \"I was transfixed. Their power or energy was unfathomable. Then I felt a whoomph in my stomach and I was on the ground, winded. I couldn't see. I heard my husband scream; 'Let go of me'. I heard a clear male voice respond: 'we mean you no harm'. My husband said: 'Why did you hit Kelly then?' and the thing said: 'I wouldn't harm her. After all, I am her father'. I heard a chuckle and I thought, this is evil. I threw up, and began sobbing. The next thing I knew I was sitting in the car.\"\n5. These are the couplings which make Man and Woman so problematic, subverting the structure of desire, the force imagined to generate language and gender, and so subverting the structure and modes of reproduction of Western identity, of nature and culture, of mirror and eye, slave and master, body and mind. \"We\" did not originally choose to be cyborgs . . . .\n6. I felt embarrassed . . . but I wanted a record of some sort . . . . if I had told the reporters that alleged visitors were in any way involved, it seemed to me that there was a probability that my credibility would be destroyed.\n7. The subject is named by being tagged or branded on its surface creating a particular kind of \"depth-body\" or interiority, a physic layer the subject identifies as its (disembodied) core. Subjects thus produced are not simply the imposed results of alien, coercive forces; the body is internally lived, experienced and acted upon by the subject and the social collectivity . . . the subject is marked as a series of (potential) messages from/of the (social) Other . . . .\n8.They're wearing blue uniforms. Dark blue uniforms. They're sort of grey. They look like they haven't been out in the sun in ten years. Sort of mushroomy grey. Smell funny too. Like a burned match head. Just totally expressionless faces . . . This has to be a dream, because the dog is sleeping like the dead. Why do you feed a dog?\n9. Then, almost three months later to the day, her questions were answered. Once again the couple were driving on the same stretch of road to their friend's house, when a gut-wrenching dread swept over Kelly. In a flash, vivid memories came flooding back.\n10. On the TV monitor, rigid on a laboratory slab, is a childlike creature whose big bald head is pear-shaped, nose and ears tiny, and mouth a lipless slit. . . each hand and foot has six digits . . . . One of the three men in white bio-hazard suits, gloves and visored hoods makes a scalpel incision in the top of the creature's chest and draws the blade down its thorax and abdomen. He cuts to the top of the chest and the skin is peeled away to reveal the main body cavity. A dark blood-like substance oozes. Fleshy organs are removed and placed in surgical trays. One spherical organ in the stomach resembles nothing in the human anatomy. Next, dark, flimsy lenses are plucked with tweezers from the creature's eyes, revealing pupils. The skull is sawn open, a 'brain' removed.\n11. Biological, anatomical, physiological and neuro-physiological processes cannot be automatically attributed a natural status. It is not clear that what is biological is necessarily natural . . . The raw materials themselves are not \"pure\" in so far as culture, social and psychological factors intervene to give them their manifest forms. . .\n12. I can't wait to get home, to wash, wash. Scrub, scrub. The formalin must have crystallised in my nostrils because I smell it all the time. I've stopped eating corned beef. The colour reminds me too much of the cadaver. One night I vomited after dinner when I realised I hadn't been scrupulous enough to lift bits of flesh from under my finger nails. I ate an infinitesimal bit of him and I spewed months and months of dissection. I find it difficult to touch food with my hands. I'm never sure if my hands are clean enough . . . I pretended not to hear when asked if I would work some more on Tom-Dick-Harry. I made up my mind that \"he\" was an IT.\n13.The foreigner is within us. And when we flee from or struggle against the foreigner, we are fighting our own unconscious - that \"improper\" facet of our impossible \"own and proper.\" Delicately, analytically, Freud does not speak of foreigners: he teaches us how to detect foreignness in ourselves. That is perhaps the only way not to hound it outside of us. After Stoic cosmopolitanism, after religious universalist integration, Freud brings us the courage to call ourselves disintegrated in order not to integrate foreigners and even less so to hunt them down, but rather to welcome them to that uncanny strangeness, which is as much theirs as ours.\n14. Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder, and heard the Count's voice saying to me \"Good morning.\" I started, for it amazed me that I had not seen him, since the reflection of the glass covered the whole room behind me . . . Having answered the Count's salutations, I turned to the glass again . . . The whole room behind me was displayed; but there was no sign of a man in it, except myself.\n15. In the widespread paralysis of the collective or social imaginary, to which \"nothing occurs\" (Karl Kraus) when confronted with the ambitious program of fantasising an economic system on the scale of the globe itself, the older motif of conspiracy knows a fresh lease of life, as a narrative structure capable of reuniting the minimal basic components: a potentially infinite network, along with a plausible explanation of its invisibility . . . .\n16. Still shaken from the experience, they decided to try to forget about it and go to bed. But when Kelly went to the bathroom she was shocked to find she was bleeding menstrually, even though she had finished her period the week before. She also discovered a small triangular scar on her abdomen. Kelly's bleeding continued for three weeks and she was finally hospitalised with an infection in her uterus. A pregnancy test proved negative.\n17. The conquest of space constitutes . . . an irreversible threshold which effects the loss of terrestrial coordinates and referentiality. Reality, as an internally coherent and limited universe, begins to haemorrhage when its limits are stretched to infinity. The conquest of space, following the conquest of the planet, promotes either the de-realising of human space, or the reversion of it into a simulated hyperreality.\n18. The human shape I can get now, almost with ease, so that it is lithe and graceful, or thick and strong; but often there is trouble with the hands and claws - painful things that I dare not shape too freely . . . These creatures of mine seemed strange and uncanny to you as you began to observe them, but to me, just after I make them, they seem to be indisputable human beings. It's afterwards, as I observe them, that the persuasion fades. First one animal trait, then another, creeps to the surface and stares out at me . . . But I will conquer yet. Each time I dip a creature into a bath of burning pain, I say, this time I will burn out all the animal, this time I will make a rational creature of my own.\n19. For Haraway, cyborg does not necessarily name the tragic confusion of identities that follows on scientific hubris. On the contrary, it may name the condition of freedom from the illegitimate categories of \"nature\" race, gender, species, kingdom) - a freedom that can only emerge with the destruction of those rationalities and of the mythologies of essential unity .\n20.That story began back in the US summer of 1947. Dates and witness reports are contradictory, but the alleged close encounter happend early in July, as a night of storm raged around the farming and oil-and-gas producing town of Roswell on the Pecos River. Some locals saw a flash of grey-blue light in the sky they swore were neither thunder nor lightning. Simultaneously, according to some accounts, radar operators...who had been tracking a mystery object in the sky saw it disappear from their screens. The army investigated and next morning whisked away debris of a crashed flying object and - vow some witnesses - alien bodies . . . civilians who saw the clean-up say they were sworn to secrecy . . . .\n21. Listen, baby, I've been coping with this for so many years. I know this invasion gets in. As soon as you get close to something important, that's when you feel this invasion, and that's the way you know something's there. I've felt myself just marched up like a puppy to go and do something that would get me insulted or humiliated. I was not in control. Then the ultimate dream I had, I saw my body walking out of the room - this is in Chicago - bent on some deadly errand, and I'm just up on the ceiling sort of fading out, with no power at all. That's the ultimate horror of possession. There are all degrees of possession. It happens all the time. What you have to do is confront the possession.\n22. In the following days, Kelly tried to discuss the issue with her husband, but although he agreed that he had seen a UFO and remembered smelling vomit during the drive home, he doesn't agree that they blacked out, or that any time was unaccounted for, or that they met aliens. The couple began to fight constantly - he was determined to forget the experince, which left Kelly traumatised, depressed and afraid of going insane.\n23.

        "title": "So, What Does A 170-Year-Old Champagne Taste Like? - ViralPortal",
        "raw_content": "Scientists concluded that the beer that spent 170 years at the bottom of the ocean after recovering from a shipwreck is very much delicious, having a distinctive whiff of goat and overly ripe cheese.\nBut what about champagne, which can improve with age?\nApparently, bottles of the stuff recovered from the same wreckage have a cheesy aroma, married with animal notes.\nAlongside this unusual bouquet, scientists discovered that the vintage bubbly was considerably sweeter than what we\u2019re accustomed to today. Furthermore, laboratory analyses revealed that the seabed offers ideal preservation conditions for champagne, and provided us with an intriguing snippet of the history of 19th-century winemaking. The findings have been published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.\nThe old bottles of tipple were discovered back in 2010 inside a shipwreck at the bottom of the Baltic Sea, close to the \u00c5land Islands. Alongside five bottles of beer, 168 bottles of champers were recovered, some of which were sold for tens of thousands of dollars. Although the labels didn\u2019t survive 170 years in salt water, researchers managed to trace the bottles\u2019 origins to Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin, Heidsieck and Juglar, based on brandings left on the corks.\nUnlike the rancid, goaty beer, the champagne, obviously still tasted pretty good. After the obligatory tasting session, some samples were brought into the lab in order to scrutinize the chemistry and molecular diversity of the booze, which revealed some fascinating insights into the winemaking process of that time.\nIn particular, the champagne was extraordinarily sweet, which the scientists speculate was probably due to the addition of grape syrup prior to corking. Some modern day champagne contains no added sugar at all, and the most popular type, brut, will have around 10 grams of sugar per liter added to it. But this stuff contained a toothache-inducing 140 grams of sugar per liter. While that may be far from what we are used to, such staggering amounts of sugar were the norm of that era.\nIt was originally believed that this boozy booty was destined for Russia, but a bit of digging through historical documents revealed that Russians had a taste for even sweeter wine, which would typically contain a whopping 300 grams of sugar per liter. This led scientists to believe that the cargo may have been headed for Germany instead, where customers enjoyed moderately sweet champagne.\nThe samples were also found to contain wood tannins, indicating that the fermentation process likely took place inside wooden barrels. Furthermore, they also possessed unusually high levels of iron, which may have come from nails used to make the barrels. But it seems they didn\u2019t have the fermentation process down to an art just yet, as the samples were around 3% less alcoholic than modern counterparts.\nWhile the sensory analysis was originally disappointing, with the scientists describing the champagne as \u201ccheesy\u201d with notes of wet hair and animals, after a few swirls to oxygenate it, the samples apparently became spicy, smoky and fruity. One expert said he could even pick up honey and truffles.\nThe champagne\u2019s remarkable preservation was due to the seafloor presenting ideal and consistent temperatures of 2-4oC, combined with darkness. Scientists will therefore continue to take samples every few years and compare these with traditionally stored bottles to investigate how pressure and temperature differences affect wine.\nvia AFP and Nature\nFind Out What Alien Planet That Has 4 Suns In Its Sky\nThis Kid Shows You What Happens When The \u201cDJ Drops Your Jam\u201d\nWhy There\u2019s a Zero Chance You\u2019ll Get Eaten By a Megalodon Shark",

This is more than $12,000 short of the original goal of $250,000. \u201cWe are so appreciative of the community\u2019s support,\u201d stated Capt.

Many of these donations come in during the month of December through online and mailed gifts. Currently, the Lynchburg Salvation Army is estimating a decline in contributions of approximately 30 percent of what was received this time last year.\nLast year, The Salvation Army provided more than 32,000 hot meals, 12,000 nights of lodging, and financial assistance to more than 6,000 people. In addition, more than 18,000 gifts were given to children and the elderly through numerous community programs provided by the Lynchburg Salvation Army.\nLynchburg Salvation Army is seeing significant drop in Red Kettle donations this Christmas\nDecember 21, 2017 /0 Comments/in In the News: Salvation Army Lynchburg, Lynchburg Salvation Army Press Releases /by tshank\nLynchburg, VA (December 21,2017) \u2013 The Salvation Army of Greater Lynchburg\u2019s Red Kettle Campaign comprises approximately 25 percent of its total annual budget.

Many of these donations come in during the month of December through online and mailed gifts. Captain Jones shared, \u201cWe know it is a busy time of the year and many people are probably still deciding on where to make their charitable donations for the 2017 year. We want them to know that we are expecting to meet some great needs in our community in the coming year and their support is important to us and most appreciated.\u201d\nThe Red Kettle Campaign will end this year one day early on Sat., Dec. 23.

The Red Kettle Campaign comprises on average 20 percent of The Salvation Army\u2019s total budget. Last year, The Salvation Army provided more than 32,000 hot meals, 12,000 nights of lodging, and financial assistance to more than 6,000 people. In addition, more than 18,000 gifts were given to children and the elderly through numerous community programs provided by the Lynchburg Salvation Army.\n\u201cWe are asking as people make their plans for the holiday season, they also include time to volunteer as a bell ringer,\u201d stated Captain Trey Jones. \u201cWe are blessed to serve in one of the most generous communities in the country whose residents have a heart for helping others. Ringing a bell at a Red Kettle is a long-standing tradition in The Salvation Army, one we would love for the community to make part of their own this season.\u201d\nDue to closings and adjustments in individual store policies, The Salvation Army has lost several key bell ringing locations that brought in more than $20,000 last year. Having volunteer bell ringers instead of paid ringers ensures that funds raised in the Red Kettle can be applied directly to local program needs. Families and individuals of all ages are welcomed to ring with most choosing to ring in two-hour time slots, but time can be adjusted to accommodate groups and larger families.\nIf you would like more information regarding how you can volunteer or how to donate, please call 434-845-5939 or visit www.salvationarmylynchburg.org. The Salvation Army of Greater Lynchburg serves Lynchburg, Amherst, Appomattox, Bedford, Campbell and Nelson counties and has been a part of the Greater Lynchburg community for more than 112 years.\nThe Salvation Army Responding to Las Vegas Tragedy and Disaster in Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands\nOctober 3, 2017 /0 Comments/in Disaster Response /by tshank\nTHE SALVATION ARMY RESPONDING WITH EMONTIONAL AND SPIRITUAL CARE, FOOD AND HYDRATION AFTER\nEncouraging people to donate life-saving blood\nLAS VEGAS (Oct. 2, 2017) \u2013 The Salvation Army Southern Nevada is providing emotional and spiritual care to those affected by the tragic mass shooting in Las Vegas.\n\u201cSalvation Army Clark County Coordinator Major Randy Kinnamon has mobilized our Southern Nevada corps officers to area hospitals to offer emotional and spiritual care.

        "raw_content": "Niacin (Vitamin B3): Niacin refers to both nicotinic acid and nicotinamide, which have identical vitamin properties but different pharmacologic activities. Niacin is involved in the production of energy, the synthesis of fatty acids, cholesterol, steroids and the regulation of genes. Nicotinic acid is used as a lipid lowering agent in pharmacologic dosages. Niacin deficiency causes pellagra (dermatitis, diarrhea and dementia), most often seen in alcoholism, malabsorption syndromes, cirrhosis and those receiving total parenteral nutrition.\nToxicity: Nicotinic acid can cause flushing from cutaneous diditation of blood vessels. High dosages (3 grams/day) may cause glucose intolerance, blurred vision, macular edema, and elevated uric acid. Those on high dosages should have liver function tests monitored on a regular basis for liver toxicity.\nTolerable Upper Level: Not determined.\nDrug interactions: Use of nicotinic acid in conjunction with calcium channel blockers,alpha1-blockers and nitrate patches may potentiate the hypotensive effects of these drugs. Use of nicotinic acid and alpha-glocosidase inhibitors, sulfonureas, biguanides, and meglitinides may decrease their anti-diabetic effects. Use with warfarin may result in significant increase in prothrombin time. Aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, cephaolsporins and penicillins may deplete B3; Cholestyramine and colestipol may reduce absorption of nicotinic acid. Nicotinamide may increase levels of carbamazepine.",

        "raw_content": "Yellow-fever vaccination certificates are compulsory for entry or exit, although they are not always asked for. .\nCustoms in Rwanda has one particular peculiarity: a total ban on bringing plastic bags into the country. While this is enormously progressive (and was designed to stop the disfiguring of the countryside), it's not enforced with any great rigour and suitcases are rarely searched. Otherwise, customs in Rwanda is fairly relaxed.\nNearly all visitors require a visa for Rwanda, and while certain nationalities can get one on arrival, many others will have to get one in advance.\nIf you\u2019ve arrived on a T2 visa and need to extend it, you must do so at Rwanda Immigration in Kigali\u2019s Kacyiru district, about 7km northeast of the city centre near the American Embassy. Bring the appropriate form (available online), a passport-sized photo, your passport, a letter of introduction or a letter addressed to the Director of Immigration explaining why you require a visa, and RFr30,000. Extensions take five days to issue. V1 visas cannot be extended.\nAlmost everyone now requires a visa to enter Rwanda. Citizens of Australia, Germany, Israel, New Zealand, South Africa, Sweden, the UK and the US can automatically receive visas on arrival at Kigali International airport and all land borders (US$30). All other passport holders must obtain a visa before entering the country at the Rwandan embassy in their country of residence. These visas (called class T2) cost US$50, are valid for 90 days and are good for multiple entries within that time.\nIf Rwanda isn\u2019t represented in your country then you need to register online at Rwanda Immigration (www.migration.gov.rw) before you travel. The website is a little confusing, but once you\u2019ve submitted the online form you\u2019ll receive your letter of entitlement within three days. Present this letter at the border along with the US$30 fee to obtain a single-entry, 30-day visa (called a V1 visa). Multiple entry V1 visas are US$60. It is no longer possible to obtain a visa on arrival without first obtaining the aforementioned letter of entitlement. Although the online form asks you to attach a letter of invitation, this is not a compulsory prerequisite and it\u2019s fine to skip this section.",

However, it does run through remote mountainous territory, so getting to it can present difficulties, unless you go to the most popular section at Badaling, close to Beijing.

        "raw_content": "Important Points to Consider When Thinking of a Web Development Service Provider\nEven so, the journey to your success on the internet today begins by choosing the right web development company. It needs no mentioning you may have a very difficult time if you are looking at getting the right provider of this service for the very first time. Of course, you of all people should know any decision you make on behalf of your company will have either positive or negative consequences depending on how much time you spend making such a decision. What follows here are some basic guidelines to help you decide on the right service provider for web development services.\nFor starters, how about you spend some time in defining your web development and website needs and have them in writing? To get you started, take the time to differentiate and appreciate the fact that no two websites are created equal, each will have its functions so as to achieve the main goal of the site in the first place. Generally, you have to categorize your needs as to whether you need e-commerce or an informational site to achieve your needs. The second important consideration is to determine your compatibility with this company that you want to hire for web development.\nYou should know by now that web development is a long-term project hence you will be hiring a technology partner to stick around for a considerably longer period. Therefore, spending some more time looking for the right service provider can save you lots of trouble and money in the long run. The last important consideration that informs your choice of a service provider is on the level of technical support you expect to have from your technology partner. Your decision here will largely depend on your competence and knowledge in web development, your availability and the nature of your business with services ranging from as simple as resetting a password to updating content on the website. No doubt any company that is seriously in business will provide after-service support on such things as basic tools and resources to make minor changes and updates on the site. In case there are major or complex features to be added, you are likely to rely on this company.\nFeatured post: https://www.youtube.com/DrewRoberts\n\u00ab On Marketing: My Experience Explained \u2022 The 10 Best Resources For \u00bb",

The Davis\u2019 resided in the house through 1968. The Mount Baker neighborhood comprises two north-south tending ridges located southeast of downtown Seattle along Lake Washington. Initial development of the area occurred relatively late, post-1900, following the construction of the Rainier Avenue Electric Street Railway in the 1890s. York Station on Rainier Avenue and the Dose Addition were developed earlier than the Mount Baker Park Addition, platted in 1907 by the Hunter Tract Improvement Company. The Mount Baker Park Addition represents the core of the neighborhood and is its primary character-defining feature. Mount Baker Park is one of Seattle\u2019s earliest planned residential communities that successfully integrated the natural environment and a relatively exclusive residential neighborhood in its layout of lots, streets, boulevards, and parks. The houses, primarily built between 1905 and 1929, reflect a variety of eclectic and Northwest-based architectural styles, and include designs by many prominent local architects. Other important influences were the streetcar connection with downtown Seattle, the integration of local parks and boulevards into the Olmsted system, the construction of Franklin High School in 1912, and the building of the Mount Baker tunnel and Lacey V. Murrow Floating Bridge to Mercer Island in 1940. Today this middle-to-upper income neighborhood remains predominantly residential, is home to an ethnically diverse population, and retains much of its planned character.",

        "title": "The Weekly Sift: The Wrong Week",
        "raw_content": "I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.\n- Lloyd Bridges, Airplane! (1980)\nThis week's featured posts are \"Minority Rule Snowballs\" and \"Giving up is a prerogative of privilege.\"\nNot only did the Court end it's spring term with a number of disappointing decisions -- I listed them in the previous post -- but we also got an additional piece of bad news: Justice Kennedy is retiring, giving Trump an opportunity to appoint his replacement while Republicans still control the Senate.\nIn general, Kennedy has been part of the Court's conservative majority, as he was on several decisions this week. But in the past he has also sided with the liberals on a number of key social-issue decisions: most notably the series of cases leading to the Obergfell decision, which affirmed a same-sex couple's right to marry, but also upholding Roe v Wade, which keeps Congress or the states from outlawing abortion altogether.\nAs the Court stands now, Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas are doctrinaire far-right extremists, particularly on social issues. They routinely award special rights to Christians, and have only a hazy notion of the separation of church and state. (Thomas believes that the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment only prevents the federal government from establishing a religion. If Texas wanted to declare itself a Baptist state or Utah wanted to establish Mormonism, he'd be fine with that. I'm not exaggerating.)\nIf Trump appoints another Gorsuch to the Court, then Chief Justice Roberts becomes the fifth-and-deciding conservative vote. Roberts also has a conservative voting record, but is cagier than the other three: He seldom writes a ringing opinion that enunciates some new conservative principle, but instead has a way of seeming to re-affirm a previous decision while actually gutting it. (In 2012, for example, his vote upheld the constitutionality of ObamaCare, but did so by destroying the Commerce Clause justification Congress had in mind when it passed the law. He invented a much narrower constitutional basis for ObamaCare, which is now under fire in a new case. Similarly, he upheld the Voting Rights Act while destroying the main mechanism for enforcing it.)\nSo on social-issue cases -- gay rights, civil rights, abortion, etc. -- the typical decision will be a ringing piece of conservative rhetoric representing Alito, Gorsuch, Thomas, and the new guy, and then a more reasonable-sounding concurrence by Roberts that comes to the same conclusion on this particular case in a less sweeping way.\nOn economic issues, it won't even be close: Roberts is an economic royalist; he's for anything that increases corporate power, the influence of the 1%, or the voting power of the white Christian conservative bloc. Kennedy may have written the Citizens United opinion, but it was Roberts who maneuvered the case into position. Roberts is consistently anti-union and anti-consumer. He'll support voter suppression and gerrymandering, as long as it has a fig leaf of alternative explanation.\nI try not to speculate much on this blog, because I think way too much of the media's \"news\" coverage is devoted to speculation about things that may never happen, rather than reports about what is happening. But I can't resist here: In picking Gorsuch, Trump followed conservative orthodoxy. Gorsuch had appropriate experience and looked the part, so he might also have been appointed by President Rubio or President Cruz. I think in his second pick, Trump will want to make the point to Evangelicals that nobody else would have done this for them. That's why they should be loyal to him personally rather than the GOP generally. So this one is going to be off the wall. If Roy Moore didn't have that teen-age girl baggage, he'd be perfect.\nReportedly, Trump is using a candidate list created by Leonard Leo, until recently a vice president of the Federalist Society, an organization of right-wing lawyers. Trump has reportedly said he won't ask candidates about specific issues like Roe v Wade, but that doesn't reassure me for three reasons:\nUndoubtedly Leo already has asked about Roe, and a judge who wasn't sufficiently committed to overturning it wouldn't be on the list. So Trump doesn't need to ask; he already knows.\nTrump lies and has no self-control. The fact that he says he won't ask about something doesn't mean much.\nWhat really worries me is that Trump will ask for \"loyalty\", as he did with James Comey. The Court may soon have to rule on questions like whether Trump can be subpoenaed, how far civil suits against him can go, and whether he can either pardon himself or pardon fellow members of a criminal conspiracy. I don't want him negotiating a favorable ruling with judges as a condition of appointment.\nDemocrats currently have 49 senators. If they hold together against Trump's nominee and John McCain's health doesn't allow him to attend, then only one Republican needs to cross over to block the nomination. Susan Collins said Sunday that she \u201cwould not support a nominee who demonstrated hostility to Roe v. Wade.\u201d But as we saw in the tax-cut debate, Collins looks for reasons to go along, not reasons to resist. She happily settles for empty promises about tomorrow in exchange for a real vote today. So if the nominee says s/he hasn't promised Trump anything about Roe, and professes a false open-mindedness in committee hearings, I'm sure Collins will be satisfied. When the Court finally overturns Roe she will tut-tut her disapproval, never admitting that she did nothing when she had the chance to prevent it.\nThe government is still keeping about 2,000 immigrant children away from their parents. When the Trump administration took them, apparently it didn't make any plan for how to return them. A judge has given them 30 days, and it's not clear if they'll meet that deadline.\nOK, it's official now: The Trump administration wants to replace family separation with family detention.\nIn federal court Friday night, Trump\u2019s Department of Justice, led by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, filed an announcement that it is now keeping families in detention \u201cduring the pendency of\u201d their immigration cases. That could easily mean months of detention (or longer) for some asylum-seekers \u2014 or, alternatively, a form of \u201cassembly-line justice\u201d that moves families\u2019 cases through too quickly to allow for real due process.\nThe whole we-have-to-enforce-the-law chorus is ignoring an important point: The law says we grant asylum to people who face persecution in their home countries. If the Trump administration sends them home without a hearing or rams them through a kangaroo court, it is breaking the law. The rule of law means that laws don't just apply to the powerless, they apply to the government too.\nHundreds of thousands of people attended protest rallies around the county Saturday, the largest being in Chicago, Washington, and New York. In little Nashua, NH, I was at a rally with about 400 others.\nA slogan at many of this weekend's protest rallies was \"Abolish ICE\". Trump interprets this as an anarchic slogan that calls for no policing of the border and predicts \"Next it will be all police.\" Actually, the proposal is quite a bit more sensible than that, as Alt. U.S. Press Secretary explains in a tweet storm:\nLet\u2019s talk about #AbolishICE: What it is and what it means. Does this mean getting rid of all border enforcement, or \u201copen borders\u201d? NO. ICE is an interior enforcement agency. They don\u2019t guard the border. Who suggested abolishing ICE? ICE Special Investigators & Special Agents.\nICE consists of two portions with two differing missions. ICE HSI consists of trained investigators who handle highly significant drug tracking, child pornography, and other highly important translational law enforcement. And ICE ERO. ICE ERO does interior enforcement: Arresting people at courthouses, including domestic violence victims, and their places of work. Over 200 people have died in their custody. ICE routinely reallocates resources away from the important work of ICE HSI to ERO.\n... ICE HSI and ICE ERO should be immediate separated within DHS, and ERO should be entirely restructured. In the interim, a more established agency such as FBI should manage both of the functions of both ICE HSI and ICE ERO.\nProgressive candidates did well in Democratic primaries Tuesday. Three in particular, in very different circumstances:\nAlexandria Ocasio-Cortez defeated Rep. Joe Crowley, who was part of the Democratic House leadership. The race drew comparisons to Dave Brat beating Eric Cantor in 2014. Ocasio-Cortez is in New York's 14th district, which is very blue. She seems very likely to hold the seat.\nBen Jealous won the Democratic nomination for governor of Maryland. The incumbent Republican, Larry Hogan, is very popular even though Maryland is a blue state. The conventional wisdom is that Jealous will lose, but that a centrist Democrat would have lost too.\nDana Balter defeated a candidate backed by the Democratic establishment in NY-24. This is precisely the kind of district Democrats need to win if they're going to take the House: carried by Hillary Clinton but represented by a Republican. So this is a real test of the electability of progressives.\nAlexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted:\nA major point of my campaign: in the safest blue seats in America, we should have leaders swinging for the most ambitious ideas possible for working-class Americans. You\u2019re largely not going to get gutsy risk-taking from swing-district seats.\nThis makes perfect sense to me. It's the flip side of Doug Jones running on middle-of-the-road ideas in Alabama and Joe Manchin having some conservative positions in West Virginia.\nand a new kind of mass shooting\nThursday, a gunman rampaged through the newsroom of the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland, killing four editors and a member of the advertising staff. Police charged Jarod Ramos, who was captured at the scene and had previously lost a defamation suit against the newspaper. Ramos is an MS-13 gang member Muslim jihadist angry white guy with a gun. His defamation suit was in regard to a story about his harassment of a former classmate whom he had re-contacted on Facebook.\nIf I had to pick out one class of people to watch closely for violence, it would be men who have had harassment/domestic violence issues with women. To me, they seem way more dangerous -- to the general public, and not just to the women in their lives -- than any group defined by race, religion, or country of origin.\nHave you ever read one of Carl Hiaasen's Florida novels? Carl's brother Rob, apparently a first-class journalist in his own right, was one of the victims.\nWhite House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders tweeted:\nA violent attack on innocent journalists doing their job is an attack on every American.\nApparently, the White House only endorses Twitter attacks on innocent journalists doing their job, such as:\nIt's a good thing the American People know not to take this \"enemy\" stuff literally. That Trump, what a kidder!\nNBC News quotes five anonymous intelligence officers as saying that North Korea is in fact increasing its production of weapons-grade nuclear material.\nU.S. intelligence agencies believe that North Korea has increased its production of fuel for nuclear weapons at multiple secret sites in recent months. ... While the North Koreans have stopped missile and nuclear tests, \"there's no evidence that they are decreasing stockpiles, or that they have stopped their production,\" said one U.S. official briefed on the latest intelligence. \"There is absolutely unequivocal evidence that they are trying to deceive the U.S.\"\nThe scenario that has most worried me since the Trump/Kim summit was announced is that Kim will take advantage of Trump's tendency to exaggerate his accomplishments and his inability to admit mistakes. Having already taken a victory lap for getting Kim to talk about denuclearization (which North Korea has pledged many times before), Trump will be strongly tempted to deny or explain away any evidence that diminishes his premature claims of historic progress.\nPuerto Rico appears to have drawn a conclusion from the federal government's botching of Hurricane Maria recovery: It needs to be a state.\nRep. Jenniffer Gonz\u00e1lez-Col\u00f3n (R) filed a bill on Wednesday that would pave the way for the island to become a state no later than January 2021. The measure is co-sponsored by 21 Republicans and 14 Democrats and fulfills the promises of Gonz\u00e1lez-Col\u00f3n and Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossell\u00f3, who campaigned on a statehood platform and said statehood is a civil rights issue for Puerto Ricans.\nI did a calculation as part of my article on minority rule: Puerto Rico has about the same population as Alaska, the Dakotas, Vermont, and Wyoming put together. Puerto Ricans are already American citizens, but they have no voting representatives in Congress. Does anybody doubt that if the island were populated by English-speaking white people, it would have been a state a long time ago?\nThere's an ongoing debate about civility, which somehow is supposed to apply to everyone but Trump. I should say more about this eventually, but for now I'll settle for this:\nWe're at the stage of \"just say shit and hope your base repeats it\". White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow says the federal budget deficit is \"is coming down, and it's coming down rapidly.\" This contradicts figures from the administration itself:\nThe White House's Office of Management and Budget says the deficit is rising from $665 billion in 2017 to $832 billion in 2018, and will approach $1 trillion annually in 2019.\nWe're at the point in the economic cycle when classic Keynesian theory says the government should be running a surplus, not building towards one of the highest deficits in history. When the next recession hits -- and one always does, eventually -- tax receipts will fall, automatic payments like unemployment compensation will rise, and the economy will need a stimulus. If you start from a baseline of a trillion-dollar deficit, you might suddenly be looking at $2 trillion or $3 trillion.\nI can't decide whether this is cute or cruel, but I can't help laughing at how dogs react to seeing their humans disappear.",

The main business is sex and death.\u201d \u2013 Sam Llewelyn\nLiving things on earth today are the descendants of individuals that were good at reproducing and avoiding death. In fact the fittest imaginable organism \u2013 a Darwinian Demon \u2013 should reproduce extremely rapidly and forever. But Darwinian Demons don\u2019t exist. Instead the creatures inhabiting our planet are of limited reproductive ability and finite lifespan. Moreover, we often find that organisms that mate and reproduce at high rates tend to be short lived. But why should sex, reproduction and ageing be linked like this? And why, if sex and reproduction leads to death, do some organisms have more many mates than others?\nThe answers lie in the facts that firstly, selection doesn\u2019t act on the survival of individuals per se, it only acts to maximise the spread of genes via reproduction, and secondly males and females have very different ways of maximising their reproductive success. Consequently there are a bewildering array of adaptations that contribute to the ability of males and females to ensure the transmission of their genetic material to future generations, even though some of these adaptations may, as a side-effect, lead to senescence and death. By integrating molecular mechanisms into evolutionary biology, our lab tries to to understand how the genes and proteins carried by individuals result in success or failure in the arena of sex and survival. We mainly use insects for our work, in particular the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, a species for which we have enormous power to manipulate genes and measure Darwinian fitness.",

        "raw_content": "Nowell performing in the mid-1990s.\nSka punk, reggae rock, reggae, third wave ska, alternative rock, acoustic rock, hip hop, punk rock\nGuitarist, songwriter, music producer\nVocals, guitar, keyboards, synthesizer, bass, percussion, congas, sampler, drum programming\nMCA, Skunk\nHogan's Heros, Sublime, Gwen Stefani\nBradley James Nowell (February 22, 1968 \u2013 May 25, 1996) was an American musician who served as the founder, lead singer, and guitarist of the band Sublime. He died at the age of 28 from a heroin overdose in San Francisco, California, shortly before the release of Sublime's self-titled major label debut.\nRaised in Long Beach, California, Nowell developed an interest in music at a young age. His father took him on a trip to the Virgin Islands during childhood, which exposed him to reggae and dancehall music. Nowell played in various bands until forming the group Sublime with bassist Eric Wilson and drummer Bud Gaugh, whom he had met while attending California State University, Long Beach. As Sublime gained success, Nowell struggled with a worsening addiction to heroin. He eventually became sober after his son, Jakob Nowell, was born. Bradley shot up again on the morning of May 25, 1996, and died of a heroin overdose in a San Francisco hotel while Sublime was on tour.\nSublime 1.2\nPost-death 1.4\nMarriage and fatherhood 2.1\nLou Dog 2.2\nGuitars 3.1\nGuitar rig and signal flow 3.4\nBradley Nowell and his sister, Kellie, were born and raised in the Belmont Shore neighborhood of Long Beach, California to Jim and Nancy Nowell.[1][2] As a child, he enjoyed surfing and sailing, often participating in boat races. Nowell became a difficult child and was often hyperactive and disruptive; his mother recalled that he was \"very emotional, very sensitive, very artistic, but he was needy...He was always testing just to see what he could get away with\".[1] After his parents' divorce when he was ten, Nowell's behavior worsened. His mother was awarded custody, but found him too difficult to control, and at the age of ten he had moved in full-time with his father.[1]\nNowell performs with his band.\nMusic was an integral part of Nowell's upbringing on the part of both of his parents.[3] His father, a construction worker, enjoyed playing guitar and exposed him to the music of Jim Croce; his mother taught piano for a living in addition to playing the flute.[2] Both parents helped teach young Nowell to play the guitar.[2] In the summer of 1979, eleven-year-old Nowell accompanied his father on a month-long sailing trip in the Virgin Islands, where he was first exposed to reggae music.[1]\nBy the age of sixteen, he started his first band, Hogan's Heroes, with Michael Yates and Eric Wilson. Nowell was described as a \"gifted kid with many friends\".[4] At first, Wilson did not share Nowell's interest in reggae music. Nowell recalled the experience: \"I was trying to get them to do (UB40's version of) 'Cherry Oh Baby', and it didn't work. They tried, but it just sounded like such garbage. We were horrible\".[2] Nowell attended the University of California, Santa Cruz before transferring to California State University, Long Beach to study finance.[2] While at Cal State Long Beach, Nowell received good grades, appearing on the Dean's List in 1990.[5] However, he dropped out one semester shy of earning a degree, stating in 1995 \"I have all the hard classes left...I doubt I'll ever go back\".[2]\nAccording to a Westwood One interview (which can be found on disc three of the Sublime box set), in 1988 Nowell got together with bassist Wilson and drummer Bud Gaugh, performing in small shows at house parties and barbecues. The band was often asked to leave the parties due to excessive noise.[1] Sublime gained a reputation for their rowdy behavior and eventually became one of the most popular bands in Southern California. Despite their local success, music venues were skeptical of the band's eclectic musical fusion and many refused to book the band. In response, Nowell and Wilson created their own music label, Skunk Records, telling venues they were \"Skunk Records recording artists\", helping the band seem more accomplished and enabling them to book more shows.[6] The band produced and distributed Sublime's early recordings on the label, later selling demo tapes at shows and local record stores.\nIn 1990, music student Michael \"Miguel\" Happoldt offered to let the band record in the studio at the school where he was studying, although without the school's knowledge. The band agreed, and snuck into the school at night, where they recorded from midnight to seven in the morning.[1] That recording session resulted in the popular cassette tape, Jah Won't Pay the Bills, released in 1991. The tape helped the band gain a grassroots following throughout Southern California. It was during this time that Nowell became involved with drugs. For years, Nowell had refused to try heroin; however, as he entered his twenties and witnessed his band's success, he decided to try the drug. Nowell's father explained, \"His excuse for taking the heroin was that he felt like he had to be larger than life. He was leading the band, leading his fans, and he had to put on this persona. He had heard a lot of musicians say that they were taking heroin to be more creative\".[1]\nUsing the same tactics they had used in recording Jah Won't Pay the Bills, the band recorded its debut album 40oz. to Freedom in secrecy at the studios at California State University, Dominguez Hills.[7] Nowell recalled, \"You weren't supposed to be in there after 9 p.m., but we'd go in at 9:30 and stay until 5 in the morning. We'd just hide from the security guards. They never knew we were there. We managed to get $30,000 worth of studio time for free\".[7] 40oz. to Freedom was released in 1992; 60,000 copies were sold.\n\"We just kept being punkers and doing it all by ourselves. Now here we are today. We never thought it would be like this. We just thought we'd always be playing backyard parties. A couple of hundred people in Long Beach can claim we played in their back yards\".\n\u2014Nowell, on Sublime's success in 1995.[8]\nDespite their growing popularity in Southern California, Sublime still was not signed with a major label. Around this same time Nowell teamed up with longtime friend Gwen Stefani of No Doubt, to record the song \"Saw Red\". The song was eventually released on Sublime's Robbin' the Hood album, which was self-recorded on a four-track cassette, and released in October 1994.[7] Several songs from the album detail Nowell's worsening drug addiction. Nowell is believed to have predicted his own death in the song \"Pool Shark\", with the line, \"One day I'm going to lose the war\". However, the lyric in question refers to the song's persona, not specifically to Nowell himself.[9]\nAbout a year later, Tazy Phillipz took a copy of 40oz. to Freedom to Los Angeles radio station KROQ-FM, requesting that Sublime's song, \"Date Rape\", be added to the playlist.[10] Soon after, MCA Records picked up 40oz. to Freedom for national distribution, and Sublime was scheduled to tour throughout Europe. Nowell, an avid reader who enjoyed quoting historians and philosophers, began studying European history to prepare for the trip.[10] Attention from a major label did not curb Nowell's drug use, which sometimes led him to pawn his instruments and sell drugs, as reflected in the song \"Pawn Shop\".[11] In February 1996, Sublime returned to the studio to record the bulk of their self-titled album, which would be their debut with MCA. Production was done by Paul Leary of the Butthole Surfers (and producer of Marcy Playground and Meat Puppets) at Willie Nelson's Pedernales Studio in Austin, Texas.\nNowell was married to Troy Dendekker on May 18, 1996. Seven days later, on the morning of May 25, Sublime was supposed to begin a five-day tour through Northern California, followed by a European and East Coast tour. However, while the band were staying in a motel, drummer Bud Gaugh woke up to find Nowell lying across his bed flat on his back, with his feet flat on the floor. His dalmatian, Louie Dog, was curled up next to him whimpering. Bradley tried to wake up his fellow band-mates to come watch the sunrise on the beach with him that morning, but they were too hung-over and tired to get out of bed.[12] Initially, Gaugh assumed he had been too intoxicated to get into bed, however, he noticed a green film around his mouth, and it became apparent that he had overdosed on heroin.[1] Gaugh called for paramedics, but Nowell had died several hours earlier, and was pronounced dead at the scene. Nowell was cremated and his ashes were spread over his favorite surfing spot in Surfside, California. A headstone was placed at Westminster Memorial in Westminster, California in his memory.\nA few weeks after Nowell's death, No Doubt headlined a \"cautionary\" benefit concert in tribute to Nowell.[13] Nowell's widow and the various bands who performed wanted it made clear that they were not glamorizing Nowell's death, but wanted to celebrate his life as well as establish a college fund for his son, Jakob.\nOn January 11, 1997, a Los Angeles Times article titled \"Cautionary Concert in Rocker's Memory\", writer Jerry Crowe quoted No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal as saying, \"Obviously, it's going to be very emotional because you're there playing a show to commemorate a good friend who died and died for very wrong reasons. But you're also there to change things for the future and prevent stuff like that from ever happening again. A lot of times we hear about musicians using drugs and it's so blas\u00e9 and clich\u00e9d. You just kind of say, 'Oh, he'll be fine. Somebody will take care of him.' But that's not true. It's important for every single one of us to stand up and say, 'Enough of this shit.' It's time to make a difference\".[13]\nJason Westfall, one of Sublime's managers, was quoted as saying that the other members of Sublime had no interest in continuing to perform and record under the \"Sublime\" name: \"Just like Nirvana, Sublime died when Brad died\". Sublime played their last show at the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma, California.[14] In late 2010 and early 2011 the remaining band members, along with Rome Ramirez, began touring under the name Sublime with Rome.\nIn light of Nowell's death, record executives considered not releasing Sublime's final album. The album was eventually released, though the original title, Killin' It, was replaced by the eponymous title, Sublime, and was released on July 30, 1996.\nBy 1997, the album entered Billboard's Top 20, with the largely acoustic single, \"What I Got\", becoming the number one song on the Modern Rock chart. The album produced three more radio hits: \"Santeria\", \"Wrong Way\", and \"Doin' Time\". The accompanying music videos for \"Santeria\", \"What I Got\", and \"Wrong Way\", received heavy rotation on MTV, with previously filmed footage of Nowell performing live intercut into the video. The footage which was used came mostly from shows in 1996.\nSublime became one of the most successful American rock acts of 1997.[15] Rolling Stone reported in March 2010 that the album Sublime had sold over 6 million copies.[16]\nIn 2009, Gaugh and Wilson teamed up with Rome Ramirez to form Sublime with Rome after an attempt to reform \"Sublime\" was blocked by Nowell's estate. The new band plays all of Sublime's original songs except for \"Caress Me Down\", which Rome refuses to play out of respect for Bradley Nowell and his fans due to it having Nowell's name in the lyrics. The band also records original music. Their 2011 debut album Yours Truly is dedicated to Nowell.\nMarriage and fatherhood\nWhile on tour in the early 1990s, Nowell began dating Troy Dendekker. In October, 1994, Troy became pregnant, giving birth to a son, Jakob James Nowell on June 8, 1995. A week before Nowell died, the couple married in a Hawaiian-themed ceremony in Las Vegas.[6]\nLou Dog on the cover of a Sublime box set compilation.\nIn February 1990, Nowell purchased an abused dalmatian puppy from an old man for $500, and named him \"Louie\" after his grandfather.[1] Also referred to as \"Lou Dog\", he became a mascot for the band Sublime. Lou Dog was often allowed to wander the stage during concert performances. Louie was also often featured on the cover of Sublime albums, and was referred to in the lyrics of Sublime songs. In Sublime's most successful radio track, \"What I Got\", Nowell sings, \"Livin' with Louie Dog's the only way to stay sane\". Another prominent song of the band, \"Garden Grove\", mentions Lou Dog as such: \"We took this trip to Garden Grove. It smelled like Lou dog inside the van, oh yeah\".\nNowell would sometimes begin live songs by referencing Lou Dog, and can be heard on the live version of \"Caress Me Down\" from Stand By Your Van yelling \"Everybody say Louie - 1,2,3 Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie!\" Nowell was known to invite his friends and their dogs over to film parodies of popular music videos; the dogs would pose as a band or an artist, dressed in corresponding costumes. In the early 1990s, Lou Dog disappeared for a week. Lou Dog was soon returned to Nowell, who later covered the Camper Van Beethoven song \"The Day That Lassie Went To The Moon\", and changed it to \"Lou Dog Went to the Moon\". Following Nowell's death in 1996, Lou Dog was cared for by Miguel. Lou Dog died on September 17, 2001.[17]\nDan MacDonald Custom Electric Guitar - Body based on a mix of a 1960s Vox Hurricane and a G&L 100 guitar \u2014 Ebony Fretboard \u2014 Fitted with a Floyd Rose Vibrato System\nIbanez S-540 Electric Guitar - Smoke Black \u2014 Flame Top\nIbanez S-470 Blue\nBradley borrowed guitars many times from other bands.\nBoss OS-2 Overdrive Distortion\nWhirlwind A/B Selector\nMarshall JCM-800 Combo / 2x12\nRoland JC-120 Jazz Chorus Combo / 2x12\nMesa/Boogie {Triple Rectifier} Head / 4x12 Cabinet\nGuitar rig and signal flow\nA detailed gear diagram of Bradley Nowell's 1992 Sublime guitar rig is well-documented.[18]\n^ Cooper, Adam (2000). \"Bradley Nowell's 1992 Sublime Guitar Rig\".

The museum was officially inaugurated on September 10, 1992 and is named for Queen Sof\u00eda. It is located in Madrid, near the Atocha train and metro stations, at the southern end of the so-called Golden Triangle of Art (located along the Paseo del Prado and also comprising the Museo del Prado and the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza).\nThe museum is mainly dedicated to Spanish art. Highlights of the museum include excellent collections of Spain's two greatest 20th century masters, Jos\u00e9 Guti\u00e9rrez Solana.\nInternational artists are few in the collection, but there are works by Francis Bacon.\nHistory of the Building 1\nArt Museum 1.2\nPopular culture references 3\nCourtyard in old hospital building\nJean Nouvel Building interior\nThe building is on the site of the first General Hospital of Madrid. King Philip II centralized all the hospitals that were scattered throughout the court. In the eighteenth century, King Ferdinand VI decided to build a new hospital because the facilities at the time were insufficient for the city. The building was designed by architect Jos\u00e9 de Hermosilla and his successor Francisco Sabatini who did the majority of the work. In 1805, after numerous work stoppages, the building was to assume its function that it had been built for, which was being a hospital, although only one-third of the proposed project by Sabatini was completed. Since then it has undergone various modifications and additions until, in 1969, it was closed down as a hospital.\nExtensive modern renovations and additions to the old building were made starting in 1980. The central building of the museum was once an 18th-century hospital. The building functioned as the Centro del Arte (Art Center) from 1986 until established as the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sof\u00eda in 1988. In 1988, portions of the new museum were opened to the public, mostly in temporary configurations; that same year it was decreed by the Ministry of Culture as a national museum. Its architectural identity was radically changed in 1989 by Ian Ritchie with the addition of three glass circulation towers.\nAn 8000 m2 (86,000 ft2) expansion costing \u20ac92 million designed by French architect Jean Nouvel opened in October 2005.\nIn 2003 Spanish film Noviembre, the school entrance scenes and some performance scenes were shot in the square in front of the museum.\n^ a b Top 100 Art Museum Attendance, The Art Newspaper, 2014.

        "raw_content": "A unique war for a unique British Army parachute unit -\nThe 2nd Independent Parachute Brigade.\nMichael Bond, Spring 2015\nMost war veterans are reluctant to talk about their war experiences. They prefer to move on from those terrible times, so it's taken me decades to piece together the basics of my own dad's World War II experience from his occasional hints, and according to all I've heard from him over the years he and his mates appear to have taken a different journey in World War Two.\nI'd like to share my discoveries with you and tell you a little about a side of that War we don't much hear about - Welcome To The Sunshine Tour.\nThe Sunshine Tour\nMy dad's participation in the Sunshine Tour began somewhere deep in the mists of the 1940s\nAlong with thousands of other blokes he'd signed up to fight for King & Country and promptly been taken to a big flat piece of land outside Manchester called Ringway where he and his mates were thrown out of aeroplanes. There were allowed to take very big handkerchiefs with them so they didn't break when hitting the ground at speed.\nThey were then given little wings, which were only a few inches across and totally useless for flying.\nFollowing their training-in-how-to-fall-out-of-things my dad and his mates were loaded up on a bunch of ships and sent on a wonderful southern cruise along the coast of Europe and Africa. They even had some very nice men from the Navy to follow them with bunches of enormous guns. So that was nice of them.\nHaving spent a delightful cruise along the coast of both West and East Africa at the King's expense (yes, I know, jealous or what?) they arrived at a nice little town called Alex. Alex was a nice girl but they couldn't find her as they were shunted off to take a tour of other parts of that beautiful and ancient country of Egypt. Managing to take the occasional leave of the rest of their mates he and his mob enjoyed many of the wonderful cultural sights and sounds of Egypt, the pyramids, Alex's other girlfriends and some Ice Cold beer (go see the movie).\nFrom Egypt they joined a bunch of Desert Rats to drive their way across the whole of North Africa in a very big road rally against the German team. My dad and the Rats won that one.\nBored with Africa my dad and his mob took a brief budget airline flight across the sea to Italy. I say budget airline because the airline, Allied Budget Airways, couldn't even afford engines for my Dad's plane so it had to be towed by another one. And you think modern budget airlines are cheap.\nEventually my dad and his mob ended up in Southern Italy around Naples and spent a gay (and I mean the old, proper, meaning of gay) time grumbling at the weather and volcanoes.\nBored with Italy my dad and his mob were given a little two-week summer trip to Southern France. Once again the Allied Budget Airline was involved and they eventually arrived with a bump in the beautiful French countryside miles from anywhere.\nUnfortunately my dad and his mob weren't allowed to enjoy the scenery for too long before they were given another sea cruise to the beautiful romantic city of Rome and spent a week there before travelling down to the scenic southern city of Taranto.\nAfter a month tidying up and polishing stuff (the military love a good polish) my dad and his mob were given yet another free Budget flight on the Sunshine Tour - to Greece.\nGreece provided another opportunity to experience the hospitality and sunny disposition of Southern European people, providing substantial humanitarian aid for Athens and helping the people of Greece with the rebuilding of their country over the following months.\nFrom here the mob were shipped back to England in anticipation of a tour of the Far East but the war ended before they could begin a new tour and thus ended my dad's Sunshine Tour of WWII.\nThe History of 2nd Para\nI've never pried into his memories but from other research and piecing the clues together I've discovered that the unit he blonged to and to have been involved in these theatres of was the 300 Independent Air Landing anti-Tank Battery and the British 2nd Independent Parachute Brigade, a detached unit which was posted around the region for their own special missions independent of the main armies and theatres in Europe.\nThey took part in the landings in Italy and the battles up through the country until reassigned to support the American invasion landings in the South of France in July 1944. From there they returned to Italy and prepared later in the year to invade Greece, initially on their own, to help drive the invaders out and bring much relief to that country, where they effectively ended their war when their planned move to the Far East was cancelled.\nWhat is especially interesting historically is that this Brigade was the only parachute unit to survive after the demobilisation at the end of the War and formed the founding formation of the modern British Paratroop forces.\n2nd Para Brigade survives in my dad's memories and in the inheritance of the British Army today through today's Parachute Regiment.\nPara. George\nService No. 1134786, Royal Artillery\nR.I.P., August 2015\nFuneral Service (Audio Only)\nThe Funeral for George was held on the 10th of September, 2015\nDue to technical problems there was no complete video of the Service,\nbut an audio recording was made of the event.\nIf you wish to share in this Service for George you may\nhear the audio here: Service for George.\nDOWNLOAD a copy of my dad's Story and share it with your friend and family.\nPerhaps one day I may take my dad's story and the history of the 2nd Brigade\nas the basis for a TV drama series.\nKeys: 2nd Independent Parachute Brigade, Parachute Regiment, World War II, parachute veteran, G.

Downside, it's a bit... well, dull I suppose. However, it is a \"fluid\" template, in that it should resize properly depending on your screen resolution... I know some of you still use 800x600 so the previous template might have been a little \"squishy\" but this should be better.\nIf not, my advice to you is get a new computer, fast...\nIf you find any errors, please let me know.

One day I will find that perfect Just-Right-For-Me template, and will stop doing this at random.\nHe says, hopefully.\nEDIT, 9 minutes later...\nI changed my mind already, I found a nicer one.

We will soon be celebrating our fifth anniversary as the premier institution for the documentation, preservation and celebration of Arab American history and culture. While our exhibits and collections continue to grow and evolve, we feel we can do more to permit the community to play an essential role in documenting and preserving its history. Therefore, I am interested in discussing strategies for reinventing the collection and archive by empowering the community \u2013 in our case Arab Americans \u2013 to manage its own history.\nSpecifically, I am open to exploring strategies for engaging diverse communities to document their own history using online tools and placing the museum in the role of facilitator.\nTo Crowdsource or Not to Crowdsource? That is the Question.\nThe proliferation of social media and social bookmarking tools such as Twitter, Facebook, Digg, Delicious and LinkedIn bring unprecedented reach to academics and practitioners searching for information. However, the advantages of speed and reach come with the disadvantages of the unknown. Do we know who we\u2019re listening to? Do we know they\u2019re providing the best resources for the job? I propose this session as a look at the advantages and disadvantages of crowdsourcing in the humanities, and a discussion amongst participants about their experiences with social media, including their triumphs and stumbles.\nsgsinclair\nI thin k I\u2019d probably initially proposed some high(er)-brow concept regarding peer review of development work in the digital humanities, but what I\u2019d really want to do is spend some time hacking some code with some cool people.

The candidate named Angel Flukes is from the southern English town of Plymouth and has been singing to date on stages in Majorca and England. Now she will be giving her best at the German X Factor show and the four-member jury: Scooter frontman HP Baxxter, pop singer Michelle, the young vocalist Vanessa Mai and pop titan Dieter Bohlen.\nAngel Flukes was immediately elected into the Recall after the first audition and hence among the top 32 participants. This year the venue of the recalls will be the Caribbean island of Jamaica. From there the ten finalists will enter the live shows back in Germany. The last round of participants and the winner will be determined by the TV audience during the so-called motto shows via televoting. The participants with the fewest votes will be eliminated until the very last one. The outcome of the vote will be announced in a subsequent broadcast on the same evening. The winner will receive a recording contract and an additional 500,000 euros. All stages of the competition, as well as the lives of the participants themselves will be discussed in weekly broadcasts and in other RTL magazines.\nThe new motto of the talent competition will be \"No Limits\". From now on the new superstar doesn't need not be a pop singer anymore. The auditions this season are open for all kinds of music: rock, pop or even rap. Even opera singers are allowed to compete. According to the head of the jury Dieter Bohlen the new motto will be \"a complete success\": \"We have opera and pop singers, folk music, rappers, etc. I think it will be a lot of fun.\" Whether this prediction will come true or not - it will turn out as of 2 January 2016 when the new season of \"DSDS\" launches at RTL.\nIn 2003 and in 2008 \"Deutschland sucht den Superstar\" was given the German Television Award as the \"best entertainment show\". Three years later, the show was awarded again: this time especially for the stage setting and the studio design.\n3PHASE Lingua Group is very glad to having been able to help a new, prominent customer to improve her German language skills for the competition and we hope we\u00b4re able to make her dream come true to win the show. We wish her all the best!",

        "title": "About Prophecy - Typological Exegesis",
        "raw_content": "Typological exegesis is a biblical reading strategy based on the informing metaphor that the history of circumcised Israel forms the shadow of the history of spiritual Israel. As presently understood, every event recorded in the Old Testament is the shadow of an event in the spiritual realm that has or will effect spiritual Israel. These selected physical phenomena have spiritual parallels that are linked together in exactly the same manner as a two-dimensional, non-living shadow is produced by a three-dimensional, air-breathing person. In addition, it appears that the events of Jesus' physical ministry (at least as recorded by Matthew) are also the shadow of events that will occur to endtime disciples.\nTypological exegesis stands diametrically opposed to historical exegesis. The reading strategy finds that the Christian Church went into mental or spiritual captivity just as the ancient nations of Israel went into physical captivity, that historical exegesis is the means by which this captivity is continued. In addition, the reading strategy finds that spiritual Israel will be liberated from mental captivity on a second Passover night just as physical Israel was liberated from Egyptian slavery on the first night of Passover. Therefore, physical and spiritual firstborns not under the Passover blood of the Lamb of God will be slain on a particular night, at a particular hour during the Tribulation. Spiritual Israel will at that time be as physical Israel was, including being more in number than the spiritual Egyptians.\nTherefore, typological exegesis as a reading strategy recognizes all individuals baptized in the name of Jesus Christ as spiritual Israelites even though many of these individuals are not presently in covenant with the Father. Christ will turn his hand against many (two-thirds) of these holy ones, because they do not remain in covenant once they are spiritually liberated, but rather, return to spiritual Egypt or Babylon. They return by accepting the mark of the beast, which is Chi xi stigma, or the tattoo of Xx (Christ's cross), not 666. But at the world's present population, a billion disciples will prove genuine and will become the harvesters for the other half of humanity that is liberated from mental bondage to Satan halfway through seven years of tribulation. Therefore, all of Israel who endures to the end will be saved (Matt 10:22 & 24:13). But enduring will not be easy. The Church will not be raptured prior to Christ's return as the all-powerful Messiah.\nTypological exegesis as a reading strategy is also opposed to the precept-upon-precept exegesis of Herbert Armstrong, and his theological descendants. While similarities in practices will exist between disciples who apply precept-upon-precept exegesis and typological exegesis, such as disciples applying both will keep the high Sabbaths as well as the weekly Sabbath, the differences are profound and are of sufficient magnitude that fellowship between disciples of both strategies is strained. Prophetic understandings stand in opposition, but perhaps the primary stumbling block for fellowship is the understandings of being born again.\nPrecept-upon-precept exegesis understands being \"born again\" as being glorified. A disciple is merely begotten by God when baptized. The disciple has to then qualify for eternal life. If the disciple produces no fruit, the disciple will be as a stillborn infant. Thus, precept-upon-precept exegesis has rightfully been labeled a theology of works by the greater Christian Church.\nIn order for spiritual Israel to cast a shadow into the physical realm, spiritual Israel must have life in the realm or dimension where spiritual beings exist. Thus, typological exegesis shows that from the moment of being placed in the eternal covenant, the disciple has life in the spiritual realm. The disciple is a child of God, not a fetus. And if anyone hinders this spiritual child from coming to the Father, it would be better if the person hadn't been born. And to teach these children to be juvenile delinquents by being lawless is to sin against the Holy Spirit. The theology of the Holiness Gospel that says all a person has to do is just believe causes actual harm to disciples, for baptism brings judgment upon disciples. If a disciple hasn't been \"discipled\" (i.e., taught the criteria by which he or she will be judged), then the disciple's teachers, regardless of the mighty works these teachers have done in the name of Jesus, will be rejected by Christ.\nWhen a person is drawn from the world by the Father (John 6:44, 65), the person receives the Holy Spirit, albeit only a small portion. Until circumcised Israelites were baptized by fire on that day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit had to be transferred directly to circumcised Israelites-the glorified Jesus \"breathed\" on His disciples (John 20:22)-but not so afterwards (Acts 2:38). Laying-on of hands wasn't necessary, for circumcised Israel had now been baptized by fire. But uncircumcised Israelites still required the direct transfer of the Holy Spirit (Acts 8:17), since uncircumcised Israel wasn't baptized with fire until Cornelius and his household received the Holy Spirit (Acts 10:44-46). After the Father baptizes by fire, anyone can receive the Holy Spirit indirectly. Water baptism, then, follows receiving the Holy Spirit. A person with the Holy Spirit has eternal life, so the person's \"old man\" is put to death in a watery grave. Once baptized the person is a child, an heir of God. And as long as the person remains in covenant, the person will be glorified-glorification is reaching the child's majority. The person won't become a baby God when glorified, but will become like Christ. The person isn't now qualifying for eternal life. The person has it. But the person can lose it by walking away from the covenant by which Christ bears the person's sins, the covenant that has the laws of God written on disciples' heats and minds. Once this person comes under judgment, even one sin credited to the person will send him or her into the lake of fire. Therefore, it is important that the person remains in the covenant by which Christ bears all of the person's sins. If a person wanders away, the person needs to run back as fast as his or her knees will bend.\nTypological exegesis will be opposed by those Christian leaders who have never been spiritually minded, as evidenced by their opposition to God and his laws. It will be opposed by those genuine disciples who believe they already possess all truth. But it will be accepted by millions of disciples halfway through the Tribulation. It is the informing metaphor of the endtime Church in Philadelphia. Again, the gospel of the kingdom that must be proclaimed before the end of this age comes is that all who endure to the end will be saved (Matt 10:22 & 24:13-14). The twelve Apostles delivered this message to the lost sheep of the house of Israel when Christ came as a man, prior to His glorification. The Church in Philadelphia (as born-again men and women) will deliver the same message to the lost sheep of the spiritual house of Israel immediately prior to the end of this age. We of The Philadelphia Church - Stonefort are about that work even now.\nMy prayers are that you will join us in spiritual Jerusalem, where we will leave a light on.",

        "raw_content": "Children suffering from the nodding syndrome\nChildren suffering from the nodding syndrome in Kitgum and Pader districts have been hit by drug shortage for controlling the disease, resulting in the death of one child.\nAber Betty, 17, a resident of Tumangu village, Lamit Parish in Akwang Sub County died as a direct result of lack of drugs to control recurrent seizures.\nThe chairperson of the Tumangu village Health Teams, Mr. Otto Joe, said that the village ran out of drugs four weeks ago.\nAber\u2019s body was laid to rest in her home village after a team of health workers from the Ministry of Health conducted postmortem to ascertain the cause of death and collect samples for further investigations.\nOtto says Aber is the 15th child that Akwang Sub County has lost to the dreaded disease; out of which 11 died from Tumangu alone. He says the situations of nodding syndrome has been heavily politicized that the exact numbers of the dead is deliberately being concealed from the public.\nBut Luka Nyeko, the chairperson of District Nodding Syndrome Taskforce, rubbished the claim and says that only 11 children have died in the entire district since the disease was reported in Kitgum in 2011. He says the battle against the syndrome has largely been won because of the swift response taken by the NRM government.\nNyeko further noted that four of the children died from hospitals where they were receiving treatment while another 7 died from their homes.\nNyeko says another 4 were raped, and maintains that the Ministry of Health continues to supply enough drugs to all nodding syndrome treatment centres in Acholi sub region. He says that even food has been delivered in plenty over the Christmas holidays, so opposition are the people trying to politicize the nodding syndrome.\nIn Pader district, the drug shortage was also brought to the notice of researchers from the Makerere University School of Public Health, Butabika Hospital and Gulu University, who visited the district recently.\nThe visit was aimed at determining the effectiveness of group interpersonal therapy for caregivers of children with the nodding syndrome to improve mental health of both the patients and the caregivers.\nA member of the village health team of Awilongoi in Atanga sub county, Mr. Bosco Ochakachon, told the team that parents and guardians were so depressed that some are being driven to suicide due to the problem.\nOchakachon said the drugs shortage is a big problem even to the village health teams, yet they are expected to monitor and deliver drugs to the patients.\n\u201cNowadays, children take three to four days without getting drugs. We have two children who were taking drugs and they were able to go to school, but right now, one fell down and got serious injury that is likely to cause him a permanent disability and deformity,\u201d he explained.\n\u201cI request that the drugs be brought in time and in plenty, so that these children can be treated to prevent depression to their caregivers,\u201d Ochakachon said.\nJennifer Atim said: \u201cGod gave me only one child and she is affected. My hope was in the drugs she had been taking, but now she has had a serious relapse as she fell in fire and got burnt.\u201d\nProf. Ssegane Musisi, a senior psychiatric consultant, who led the research team, said many children with the nodding syndrome have seizures and epilepsy.\nIf not treated, he said, they are likely to have more brain damage, social isolation and may not go to school.\nHe suggested that drugs like anti-epileptics, anti-depressants and any other treatment of any infection including immunisation which they missed in addition to proper nutrition, can help them grow and become productive in society.\nDan Kimosho, the National Medical Stores spokesperson, however, said leaders of the affected districts have not requested for the drugs. \u201c\nOur deliveries always depend on a requisition and for anyone who has not requested for the drugs we cannot deliver,\u201d he said.\nKimosho advised the leaders of the affected areas to put in their orders for quick delivery of the drugs.\nAt least 5,000 children are suffering from Nodding Syndrome in Kitgum district, mainly in Tumangu, Kitgum Matidi and Okidi Villages.",

        "raw_content": "Waiting on joy is unlike waiting on anything else in the world. When I think of it, Santa Claus' bag comes to mind. Would I have cared about Santa if he didn't have that sack? What if he were just a fat guy in a red jump suit. Would we... Would I love him? Would I want to let my love for him be known? Would I tell you that I love him? \"Hey, you know that big guy in the red suit? You know the one. I love that guy and I have no idea why.\"\nI wouldn\u2019t have a clue why I loved Santa, if he didn't have his bag. All that I know about him is that bag. That bag holds the things that I want, the things that I have asked for and the things for which I behave myself. Without that bag Santa would be hard press to get me to think of him at all.\nSo here I am waiting on joy and those are my thoughts, even though I know that I'm not waiting on things that I want and have asked for. Nor am I waiting for the things that I changed my behavior in order to receive. I'm actually waiting on something that I never knew that I wanted and that I never knowingly asked for. It's something that I've changed my behavior because of, not in order to receive; It might actually be something that changed my behavior for me.

        "raw_content": "Consisting of Sleater-Kinney guitarist, Carrie Brownstein, and drummer Janet Weiss, Helium guitarist Mary Timony and the Minders\u2019 keyboardist Rebecca Cole, Wild Flag\u2019s credentials are undeniable. The band has just released their eponymous first album to critical acclaim. We caught up with Janet to talk about their work and new sound.\nThere\u2019s a sense of the inevitable to this collaboration. Could you tell us a bit about how Wild Flag came about?\nThe Portland faction of Wild Flag \u2013 Carrie, Rebecca and I \u2013 got together to work on instrumental music for a documentary film. At some point, the director wanted vocals on a song, so we enlisted Mary, who we knew and whose music we loved. Although the music we came up with was inconsequential, the collaboration gave us the idea that this could be more.\nWe brainstormed for weeks trying to find a name. Many lists were filled. But Wild Flag, one of the early ideas, stuck. It was the name we all agreed on, and the one that seemed to represent us best in a vague, non-literal way.\nThe generation that grew up with the likes of Sleater-Kinney and Le Tigre are now adults. However, with a tour of sold-out club dates, it is clear that there\u2019s still a thirst for your sound. What are your thoughts on this?\nWell, the sold-out clubs were quite small! It\u2019s still too early to determine who our audience is; we\u2019ve only been on two short tours so far. What I have noticed is a thirst for excitement and participation. The people at our shows, young or older, seem ready to be electrified.\nCould you talk us through the decision to record the instrumental tracks for the album live, and only overdub the vocals?\nWe were interested in capturing the raw energy of this new collaboration. A band has a whole career to labour over songs, recordings, arrangements. But a band can only make its first album once. We thought the most compelling approach \u2013 the one that would give the listener a sense of who we were \u2013 was to convey the music in its most direct, powerful sense.\nHow does the message differ with this album from the albums of your earlier years?\nAn album\u2019s message is multi-layered. Sometimes there is an overt message, sometimes not. It seems counter-productive to explain what the message is. The listener must be allowed to use her own experiences, her own life, to help inform the music. There are threads that may occur throughout our careers, but those are mostly to do with strength, perseverance and joy.\nDo you think the music you listened to growing up had an influence on the type of music you wanted to produce?\nThe music I listened to as a young adult was rebellious, unique and amazing. I have spent the last 20 years trying to capture those qualities in my own bands.\nWhat\u2019s next for Wild Flag?\nWe\u2019re currently focusing on a tour to promote and support the record. We\u2019re mostly in the USA but will make two stops in Canada. Beyond that, who knows?\nAnalogue Sounds in a Digital World\nSynthesisers are complex and difficult instruments, but in musical circles, they\u2019re considered some of the most beautiful. Here\u2019s what it takes to build a behemoth.\nIt can\u2019t be denied that We Met at Sea is both unpredictable and full of life, driven by punchy guitars and melodies that will easily set feet tapping.\nCombining a cupboard full of instruments, choral layers and electronic blips, Klak Tik\u2019s second album is the perfect balance of deafening calamity and peaceful clarity.",

        "raw_content": "Travel to NewYork City Part I Statue of Liberty\nSeen from above, Manhattan Island looks like a ship determined to break loose from nature's hold and head for the open sea and the world beyond. Instead, the great wide word has come to her, in the form of millions immigrants who through the years have totally changed her physiognomy, bringing new languages new colours, new tastes and even a new shape. The bow of this imaginary vessel is lower Manhattan but first, signaling the presence of the great ship herself, come a tender and a figure-head: Ellis Island and The Statue of Liberty.Between 1892 and 1954 some 17 million people passed through Ellis Island. For many it become, with good reason, the Island of Tears: the Italians, Irish, Poles and Russinas who disembarked with their meager possessions were \"processed\" and ? if medical examination revealed suspicion of contagious disease ? turned away. From here however many made their way to the vast interior or took the great leap towards California.\nBut large numbers headed for Little Italy or Brooklyn, perhaps awaited by relations and friends who had come on earlier ships and were now fully-fledged \"Americans\".In 1990 the long-abandoned island was reopened to the public. After major restructuring at a cost 156 million dollars, it is now a huge museum in which the story of millions of lives is old.\nFrom Ellis Island you can see the Statue of Liberty. Nowadays the great figure is generally regarded as a kind of non-sectarian immigrants' Madonna (a perception endorsed by lines from Emma Lazarus's famous poem, engraved on the base at the beginning of the century: \"Dive me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free\").In actual fact, Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi's statue was conseives as a gift from the French to the American people, intended to \"glorify Liberty and the Republic, in the hope that these values will not die\". Unveiled on October 28, 1886, the statue underwent a rejuvenating facelift before its 100th anniversary.\nLady Liberty is a real giant: the statue proper weights 221.5 tons, soars to a height of 305 feet. Leading from ground level to the crown (its seven rays representing the seven seas and seven continents) are 354 steps. A visit to the Statue of Lberty is a great way to start a tour of New-York: from high up in the crown the whole city is spread out before you, and even the stunning skyscrapers appear dwarfed by her presence.\nArmine Hareyan is the publisher of http://etraveling.blogspot.com which provides Travel Destination Articles.\nBy: Armine Hareyan",

        "title": "Alfalah Consulting: Islamic banking set to boom in Canada",
        "raw_content": "After emerging largely unscathed from the financial crisis that hammered North American and European financial institutions, Islamic banking has momentum.\nWorth $1 trillion in assets, Islamic banking is being lauded by British Prime Minister David Cameron and supported by Canada\u2019s Conservative government, major banks and credit unions, leading business schools and influential Muslims across the country.\nIslamic banking \u2014 which bans interest payments, pure monetary speculation and investing in such things as alcohol, gambling, pornographic media and pork \u2014 is being sold as the next big thing in financing for Canada, which is home to just over a million Muslims.\n\u201cAwareness in Canada of Islamic banking has increased dramatically in the last few years,\u201d says Walid Hejazi, an associate professor at the University of Toronto\u2019s Rotman School of Management, where he teaches on the subject.\n\u201cWith the federal government\u2019s efforts in this respect, Canada\u2019s attractiveness to Islamic finance will grow,\u201d Hejazi says. He cited how Prime Minister Stephen Harper\u2019s government helped sponsor a World Islamic Banking Conference last year in the oil-rich Persian Gulf.\nMany Canadian Muslims are seeking \u201cShariah-compliant banking solutions to their personal finances,\u201d says Hejazi, a Lebanese-Canadian. They want home mortgages that are not based on conventional Western interest payments, but which operate more like a partnership.\nThe International Monetary Fund, Hejazi says, recently attributed the expansion of Islamic finance to demand from the increasing number of Muslims living in the West, growing oil wealth in Muslim countries and people seeking \u201cethical\u201d and lower-risk financial products.\nEven though Islamic banking has some harsh critics among Canadian Muslims who consider it unwieldy \u2014 with many still suffering from the 2011 bankruptcy of Toronto-based UM Financial, which offered Shariah-compliant mortgages \u2014 the movement is gaining energy.\nIn addition to Canadian banks, such as CIBC, making explicit gestures to offer Islamic banking, Hejazi says the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation recently reported there are no regulatory hurdles to stop Shariah-compliant banking expanding in Canada.\nTo continue to grow, some of the world\u2019s largest Islamic banks \u2014 most of which are in the Middle East, Indonesia and Pakistan \u2014 are looking at rebranding to appear less religious and more open to Western investors drawn to the kind of no-interest cooperative banking that is also offered in countries such as Sweden.\nFor instance, the Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, the largest Shariah-compliant lender in the emirate, is considering removing the word \u201cIslamic\u201d from its name and calling itself Abu Dhabi International to emphasize its service quality. Many financial institutions in Muslim-majority countries already simply call themselves \u201cparticipation banks.\u201d\n\u201cI think many Muslims in Metro Vancouver are excited about the idea of Islamic banking. In general, I think it\u2019s a good idea,\u201d says Luay Kawasme, director of the Vancouver Muslim Community Centre.\n\u201cThe appeal of it for Muslims is they don\u2019t have to get involved in financing that involves interest. Instead, the risk occurs between the financial institution and the borrower. You basically go into business together as partners.\u201d\nThe Islamic ban on usury grew out of the seventh-century era of Mohammed. The founder of Islam, Luay says, opposed the way \u201cthe wealthy would get outrageous returns on their loans; charging interest rates of 20, 30 and 40 per cent.\u201d\nBans on usury are also embedded in Hebrew and Christian scriptures, Luay recognizes.\n(The Vancouver Sun / 26 December 2014)\nLabels: Canada, Islamic banking",

        "raw_content": "Sen. Coburn again Blocks Bill to Provide Federal Funding for Bulletproof Vests for Police\nSenator Tom Coburn (R-Oklahoma) is evidently a follower of the Rumsfeld Doctrine. As the then-Secretary of Defense told a soldier who\u2019d asked for better armor in 2004, \u201cYou go to war with the army you have---not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time.\u201d Coburn seems to believe that police officers are similarly stuck with what they have.\nCoburn has for the second time blocked a bill that would have provided federal funding for bulletproof vests for local police officers. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont) had put forward a proposal to reauthorize the Bulletproof Vest Grant Partnership Program. Since 1999, the program has provided more than 1.1 million vests at a cost of $375 million.\nLeahy\u2019s proposal would provide $105 million for the program from fiscal 2015 through fiscal 2018. \u201cWe should not let ideology put officers\u2019 lives at risk now,\u201d Leahy said. \u201cWe can honor the service of those who keep us safe by protecting their lives with bulletproof vests.\u201d\nBut just as he did in 2012, Coburn threw up a procedural roadblock. Coburn\u2019s problem with the legislation is that he doesn\u2019t believe the federal government should fund local police. \u201cOur founders were very clear,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd the reason this country is in trouble is we continue to practice outside the parameters of a limited government and take away the responsibility and obligations of state and local communities.\u201d\nSenate Democrats aren\u2019t the only ones disappointed by Coburn\u2019s actions. \u201cSen. Coburn is of a mindset that public safety is best affected by posses and militias and seems to have lost sight of the fact that we have stepped into a new century,\u201d said Jim Pasco, executive director of the National Fraternal Order of Police.\nCoburn often blocks bills he believes improperly spend federal money. Last year, he and Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) held up the Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Act, which would allocate $40 million for mental health courts, create more crisis intervention teams to work with law enforcement, and provide military veterans with better screening for mental health problems, such as post-traumatic stress disorder and drug addiction.\nWhat\u2019s strange about Coburn\u2019s objection in the case of bulletproof vests is that the federal government already provides lots of assistance to local law enforcement. For example, since 1997, the Pentagon has turned over more than $4 billion worth of free surplus military equipment to municipal law enforcement agencies, including assault rifles, grenades and armored vehicles.\nBulletproof Vest Bill Hits Roadblock In Senate (by Nicole Gaudiano, USA Today)\nSchumer Pushes Bill That Will Make More Funding for Bulletproof Vests Available, Keep Cops & Communities Safe (Long Island News)\nSenators Coburn and Lee Block Bill to Aid Mentally Ill (by Noel Brinkerhoff, AllGov)\n$4.2 Billion in Military Hardware Donations Fuels Militarization of U.S. Police Forces (by Danny Biederman and Noel Brinkerhoff, AllGov)\nTom Nardone 4 years ago\nThe question isn't do our officers need bulletproof vests, the better question is, should the federal government be buying them. Once the federal government started assisting in the purchase of vests, police departments started spending on them like drunken sailors. The average spent per vest in this program is $750 per vest (the program pays for 50% of a vest) while the free market has vests for $299 (see BulletSafe.com for that product). I think if you removed the federal funding local departments would still acquire vests, just at lower cost.",

        "raw_content": "Hey, I'm not the one who mistook a newsblurb for a scientific survey, and then switched to a different set of figures when pressed for more detail.\nI never mistook any newsblurb for a scientific survey. I merely did some Google searches for data on the subject at hand. I didn't find your data, I found other data. And multiple sources of data so you couldn't claim that I was cooking the numbers. I'm still not convinced that the vicitmization methodology is superior to raw numbers. I see flaws in both systems of data gathering. I really don't care enough to get into a debate on which one is better. However, I'm glad that you were able to explain the discrepency between the data per my asking.\nBut the time from Roe v. Wade to the Reagan presidency was only 8 years, just as I wrote, apparently to no avail. And that's when crime started falling.\nNaturally you point to a few years of less crime in the '80s and ignore the 20% drop in crime in the '90s. Your link shows such a drop. I'm not talking about the year to year fluctuations here. I'm talking about the plummeting trend that happens to be 20 years after Roe vs. Wade.\nYou seem to not understand the difference between people trying to take credit for change, and people being responible for that change. I couldn't care less that you find papers where people claim to have made the world better. Correlation and Causation aren't the same. If I cared more and had the time, I'd bother to find published arguments that claim that Guiliani is not responsible for the majority of the crime drop in NY. I'll give credit where credit is due though, and say that a good portion of the drop IN NY was to his policies.\nI'd like to point out that yes, the murder rate fell mostly in the major US cities. But that is hardly suprising. That is where the poor and violent live. And when the inner-city poor have access to abortions there will be less unwanted children to commit crime in the future. Simple logic.\nBut New York\ufffds experience has not been unique; over the same period, the number of homicides has dropped in San Diego by 68 percent, in Boston by 65 percent, in Los Angeles by 60 percent, in San Antonio by 60 percent, in Houston by 43 percent, in New Orleans by 42 percent, in Detroit by 26 percent, in Philadelphia by 23 percent, in Dallas by 21 percent, and in Chicago by 18 percent.\nWow, Guiliani was good! His policies helped the entire nation, that or the Republican factions in Los Angeles, San Diego and Boston finally took charge. Thank goodness. What you are left to show is that the synchronous crime drops in each of these cities was due to independant policy changes. (Certainly it wasn't due to a pan-American policy change such as *gasp* abortion!)\nI grow tired of your tireless unwaranted self-aggrandizing.\n\ufffdYes, I can be an ass sometimes. All part of the show, I guess, even for sincere folk like me. But I do appreciate your arguments, and you gave me a few things to think about. Obviously, I still maintain my position has more evidence behind it, but there's no doubt that America doesn't abide by its ideals very often, and that's a shame. Thanks for being so reasonable.\nI agree that blacks are disproportionally responsible for crime in America. \ufffdHowever, they are also disproportionally poor. \ufffdI'm not convinced that being black makes you a criminal. \ufffdI am convinced that being poor increases your chances of a life of crime. \ufffdAnd that being black increases your chances of being poor. \ufffdThe question is, if whites were more likely to be poor, would whites be disproportionally responsible for crime. \ufffdI would say yes. \ufffdBut our society hasn't run that experiment, yet.\n\ufffdOne more thing. I think your assumption that racial crime disparities are merely a function of social inequalities can be questioned. The Color of Crime, a study done white nationalists Ian Jobling and Jared Taylor, but based exclusively on federal crime data and surveys, suggests that this may not be the case. Apparently, this study was reviewed by several criminologists \ufffdwho endorsed the paper's math, if not conclusions. Some of its provocative findings:\n\ufffd\ufffd between 2001 and 2003, blacks were 39 times more likely to commit violent crimes against whites than the reverse, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.\ufffd\nBetween 2001 and 2003, blacks committed, on average, 15,400 black-on-white rapes per year, while whites averaged only 900 white-on-black rapes per year.\n\ufffdOf the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving blacks and whites, blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent.\ufffd\nNationally, youth gangs are 90 percent non-white. \ufffdHispanics are 19 times more likely than whites to be members of youth gangs. Blacks are 15 times more likely, and Asians are nine times more likely.\ufffd\nThe only crime category in which Asians are more heavily represented than whites is illegal gambling.\n\ufffdBlacks commit more violent crime against whites than against blacks. Forty-five percent of their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are Hispanic. When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of their victims are black.\ufffd\nFar from being guilty of \ufffdracially profiling\ufffd innocent blacks, police have been exercising racial bias on behalf of blacks, arresting fewer blacks than their proportion of criminals: \ufffd\ufffd blacks who committed crimes that were reported to the police were 26 percent less likely to be arrested than people of other races who committed the same crimes.\ufffd\n\ufffd\ufffd police are determined to arrest non-black rather than black criminals.\ufffd (I have seen this practice in operation on the streets and subways of New York.)\n\ufffd[Blacks] are eight times more likely than people of other races to rob someone, for example, and 5.5 times more likely to steal a car.\ufffd\nCharges of racial profiling, which maintain that police target innocent black motorists for traffic stops notwithstanding, a 2002 study by Maryland\ufffds Public Service Research Institute found that police were stopping too few black speeders (23%), compared to their proportion of actual speeders (25%). In fact, \ufffdblacks were twice as likely to speed as whites\ufffd in general, and there was an even higher frequency of black speeders in the 90-mph and higher range.\n\ufffd\ufffd the only evidence for police bias is disproportionate arrest rates for those groups police critics say are the targets of bias. High black arrest rates appear to reflect high crime rates, not police misconduct.\ufffd\nBlacks not only commit violent crimes at far higher rates than non-blacks, but their crimes are more violent than those of whites. Blacks are three times as likely as non-blacks to commit assault with guns, and twice as likely as non-blacks to commit assault with knives.\nBlacks not only commit violent crimes at far higher rates than whites, but blacks commit \ufffdwhite collar\ufffd offenses -- fraud, bribery, racketeering and embezzlement, respectively -- at two to five times the white rate.\nThe single greatest indicator of an area\ufffds crime rate is not poverty or education, but race and ethnicity. Even when one controls for income, the black crime rate is much higher than the white rate.\n\ufffdPretty wild, I know. Does anybody here have an informed opinion? This could very well be a crackpot study, but it seems worthy of commentary. And it is based on government data.\nThe other issue is that the vast majority of \"Black\" people are not incarcerated for violent crimes. They are in prison mostly because of drug crime. The numbers at the government site for Health and Human services (http://www.oas.samhsa.gov/nhsda.htm) show that while 13 percent of drug users are \"Black\", they make up 38% of those arrested for drug use and 59% of those convicted of drug use.\nhttp://www.oas.samhsa.gov/nhsda.htm[/i]\nThere has been a lot of data generated recently that suggests that for a variety of reasons an African American is more likely than a white person to be charged with a crime, and even more likely to be convicted. There are some serious studies that suggest this bias is a major contributing factor to the apparently higher rate of black crime than white crime. Reasons include the poverty level - lack of access to good lawyers both before and during a trial.\nhttp://www.peace.ca/truthaboutblackcrime.htm\nStatistics on black crime are, on the surface, very bleak. There are, however, some very important factors that help to influence the numbers. Consider those and a strong case for a much different view unfolds. Since 62% of persons admitted to Federal prison and 31.1% of those admitted to State prison for the first time were sentenced because of drug offenses, let us first take a look at the racial disparity in the war on drugs:\nThe National Institute of Drug Abuse estimated that while 12 percent of drug users are black, they make up nearly 50 percent of all drug possession arrests in the U.S. (The Black and White of Justice, Freedom Magazine, Volume 128)\nAccording to the National Drug Strategy Network, although African Americans make up less than one-third of the population in Georgia, the black arrest rate for drugs is five times greater than the white arrest rate. In addition, since 1990, African Americans have accounted for more than 75% of persons incarcerated for drug offenses in Georgia and make up 97.7% of the people in\nthat state who are given life sentences for drug offenses.\nIn six California counties independently surveyed in 1995, 100% of those individuals sent to trial on drug charges were minorities, while the drug-using population in those same counties was more than 60% white. (The Black and White of Justice, Freedom Magazine, Volume 128) A CNN article in 1996 sited U.S. government figures that show more than 90\npercent of all federal prosecutions for crack cocaine in 1995 were of African American defendants. In addition, unlike convictions for powered cocaine and\nother drugs (which wealthy, Caucasian defendants are more likely to use), a conviction for selling crack cocaine can carry a lengthy prison term without benefit of parole.\nIt must also be noted that while Color o' Crime focuses on blacks, it doesn't let whites off the hook. If I'm not mistaken, they go to great pains to emphasize the relatively high crime rate of whites relative to North East Asians.\nThoughts about the victimization methodology.\nAt first, I thought the victimization methodology would be a valid way to determine crime statistics. But then I realized what's going on in those studies. You're asking these liberal people in foreign countries if they feel victimized. Surely, you can see the tendency for error that will result. But, I thought, what's a better way to do it? Small crimes have a tendency to not be reported or over sensationalized. But, murders don't. Our police force is pretty good about counting bodies and no one can claim that they \"felt murdered\" in a survey.\nIf we're going to look at one statistic to determine crime, it might as well be murder.\nThanks for the links, Mr. MidnightVoice. The first link is broken, however.\nThe National Institute of Drug Abuse estimated that while 12 percent of drug \ufffdusers are black, they make up nearly 50 percent of all drug possession \ufffdarrests in the U.S. (The Black and White of Justice, Freedom Magazine, Volume 128)\nAccording to the National Drug Strategy Network, although African Americans \ufffdmake up less than one-third of the population in Georgia, the black arrest \ufffdrate for drugs is five times greater than the white arrest rate.

In addition, unlike convictions for powered cocaine and\n\ufffdI once heard an African-American (Congresswoman? Spokeswoman? I forget...) propose the same argument on Bill Maher's Politically Incorrect, but some white guy (yeah, yeah, I know; Paley should have taken his Ginkoba that evening) seemed to refute it by pointing out that while Crack and Coke may be chemically similar, Crack is far more addictive, thus having the greater potential for stimulating criminal behavior. As he put it, \"You never hear of coke neighborhoods, only crack neighborhoods. Why? Because crack more readily leads to the type of violent, impulsive behavior that fuels the crime rate. The police crackdown was a direct response to the pleas of the inner-city communities to do something about the epidemic. In fact, these policies were and are very popular among community leaders.\" Also, I remember reading in The End of Racism that when prior criminal history and the specific circumstances of the crime were taken into account, then the Black-White sentencing discrepancy disappears. Although narrow in focus, this study supports that contention. But I'll see what else I can find.\nAt first, I thought the victimization methodology would be a valid way to determine crime statistics. \ufffdBut then I realized what's going on in those studies. \ufffdYou're asking these liberal people in foreign countries if they feel victimized. \ufffdSurely, you can see the tendency for error that will result. \ufffdBut, I thought, what's a better way to do it? \ufffdSmall crimes have a tendency to not be reported or over sensationalized. \ufffdBut, murders don't. \ufffdOur police force is pretty good about counting bodies and no one can claim that they \"felt murdered\" in a survey.\n\ufffdNo, they ask the people if they have been victimized. Either someone burgles your home or not, either someone beats you up or not. Sure, close calls happen, just like faked crime statistics. In any case, the fair question is: do white Americans commit murders more frequently than white European Americans? I suspect not; in fact, when lily-white American border cities are compared with Canadian cities of similar population density, America often comes out ahead.\nIn any case, the fair question is: do white Americans commit murders more frequently than white European Americans? I suspect not; in fact, when lily-white American border cities are compared with Canadian cities of similar population density, America often comes out ahead.\nAre whites the only members of society?\nIn any case, the fair question is: do white Americans commit murders more frequently than white European Americans\nObviously, this should read: \"do white Americans commit murders more frequently than white Europeans?\"\n\ufffd 1) No, but let's face it: when evos talk about the \"dangers\" of fundamentalist Christianity, they're not referring to Joseph Lowery. They mean Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson. White Christians, in other words.\n\ufffd 2) When trying to measure the effects of a single variable (religion), it is important to match groups that are as identical as possible in all other ways. This avoids confounding factors.\n\ufffd 3) You may be forgetting, Cogzoid, that many of our European friends could be fined or imprisoned for frankly discussing racial matters. By keeping the discussion focused on whites, people like Midnightvoice can participate without fearing a Midnightknock on their door. Even the beautiful people can't fight The Man; take Brigitte Bardot, for example. Of course, given the current situation in Gay Paree, she might have to assume a new identity. May I suggest Cassandra? Mr. Newman, a remake of \"Burn On\" is badly needed......\n\ufffdWell, we can argue the causes of differential crime rates until even Homer nods. But this part of the study is also worth debating:\n\ufffdGentlemen, the floor is open......\nWell my, my, my, let's get a wheelbarrow for Hillary's top hitters - I don't think their hind legs are of much use right now. Ya sure don't have much of an appetite without the courts to enshine your hunches in Law - but I guess that goes without saying. After all, why else would you be quiverin' behind Big Brother's britches?\nI'm bumping this thread for those who want to see how the debate really transpired. I'll let the reader decide for himself which of us is closer to the truth.\nLast bump, I promise. But I think the lurkers should be able to evaluate the Cogzoid-Paley debate for themselves, if they wish.\nCogzoid wrote:\nNotice how the US is in the top 25 in between great countries like Bulgaria and Armenia. \ufffdWhile most of civilized (and secular! Europe have half or less of the murder rate.\n\ufffdBy the by, if yer just interested in objective counting, what's rape statistics doing in there?\nI don't think a \"sticky\" will be needed.

It was just renamed in a contest right after Edwards v. Aguillard or McLean v. Arkansas (can't remember which right now and really don't care). Therefore, it has been ruled on by the Supreme Court. Then, the new name was exposed for all to see in Kitzmiller v. Dover.\nAnd that, of course, is the beauty of the legal system. When you try to dress the emperor in new clothes, the legal system just doesn't care and looks a the fat, old-man underneath. We don't need to have 5,000 trials over 5,000 slightly variant names.

Children should know that the Discovery Institute's two governing goals include:\n1) To defeat scientific materialism and its destructive moral, cultural and political legacies.\n2) To replace materialistic explanations with the theistic understanding that nature and human beings are created by God.\nLet's help kids learn the dangers of replacing our scientific understanding with \"theistic understandings\" (Pat Robertson's comments on a variety of subjects will be used as an example of \"theistic understandings\").\nThen let's add the \"Teach The Controversy\" campaign championed by the Discovery Institute. We'll follow up those lessons with an in-depth study of the Kitzmiller v. Dover ruling.\nThen let's teach what \"peer reviewed\" means. Let's also teach kids what the \"scientific method\" is as well as devote some time to identifying what is a testable theory and what is not. What is science and what is pseudo-science (intelligent design, healing crystals, cancer curing magnets, palm reading, etc).

        "raw_content": "Many factors affect spousal support in California\nOn behalf of Law Offices of Ashley Philpot Mattos posted in Spousal and Child Support on Wednesday, August 3, 2016.\nWhen a marriage dissolves, the financial support of a spouse is not a given in every case. The likelihood and amount of any spousal support decision can be based on a wide variety of individual factors. There is no set formula in California; however, those in the middle of a divorce can get an idea as to what they may expect in the way of support and what factors about their cases will influence a court agreement.\nOne of the main factors that influence the amount or duration of spousal support is the length of the marriage. Aside from how long a couple was married, the age of each spouse can play a role in the amount of support ordered. The health of a spouse can also be a factor.\nMore specific factors can relate to actions during the marriage and individual incomes and contributions. The professional licenses held and earning capacity of each spouse will likely weigh into the decision. If the employment, education or career of one spouse was deferred or impaired so that spouse could stay home to tend to domestic or childcare duties, that fact may affect the amount and timeframe for financial support after a divorce.\nA divorce will impact the financial life of all parties in one way or another. The prospect of spousal support and the need for financial help for a period of time may be great and also may be greatly contested by the other party. While an agreement may be easy to reach with some divorcing parties, others may benefit from clear and comprehensive legal support so as to ensure their rights are protected and all relevant factors are considered. Our firm has more information online about spousal support and how legal support may be beneficial if it is a factor in a California divorce.",

        "raw_content": "Cover Rating: 5 stars (Love the illustrations!)\nPrue is not entirely sure what is going on, but she knows one thing for sure. Her brother was abducted by crows, brought to the Impassable Wilderness and she has to get him back. She also, can not let her parents know that he is missing. Of course a rescue mission into the forest is not an easy task, but luckily Prue has help whether she wants it or not. Curtis sees Prue sneaking out into the woods and decides to follow her. They've both heard terrible stories about the fate that awaits those who dare enter the Wilderness, but they are not at all prepared for what they find there. Before they hardly even get inside, they are separated and both have to find a way back together to find Prue's brother.\nSo I'm not entirely sure this can really be considered a Middle Grade novel. I mean, it has a certain quirkiness like The Mysterious Benedict Society and The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place, but some things just don't work. One thing that I didn't love was the vocabulary. So many words I had never seen before, it seemed like someone had too much fun with a thesaurus. I mean vacillating, I have never seen that word, and I'm a pretty avid reader, so... Another thing, is it seemed a little too Portland-y for me. Clearly not all people are like that, but it had this sort of hipster quirk to it that I was just like, huh? Prue acts like a weird thrift store loving adult more so than a young girl. It just didn't really work with me especially on top of the vocabulary. Also, why is this story so dang long? I feel like there were a lot of things that were just put in to beef the book up. At times, it was a bit boring. The story itself was interesting and adventurous, but entirely too long. I don't mind long novels, but I need enough story instead of just filler pages.\nI did love the illustration. Carson Ellis also illustrates the Mysterious Benedict Society and Lemony Snicket books. They are just really great. I was a bit surprised how much I did enjoy the story. Animals that can talk sometimes put me off, especially if they don't all talk. Like the horses in Wildwood didn't talk, but were ridden around, where as most of the other creatures did. If you want to give this one a try definitely do, but I can't say that I would recommend this to Middle Grade readers, just because it seems to be written more for quirky adults.\n\"How five crows managed to lift a twenty-pound baby boy into the air was beyond Prue, but that was certainly the least of her worries.\"\n\"As she walked, she breathed a quick benediction to the patron saint of sleuthing. 'Nancy Drew,' she whispered, ' be with me now.'\"\nLabels: 3 Stars, illustrated, Middle Grade",

        "title": "The What, When, Why, and How of Drymounting",
        "raw_content": "Inside Art and Frame > The What, When, Why, and How of Drymounting\nThe What, When, Why, and How of Drymounting\nMany first-time framing customers don't realize that there's more than one way to mount their piece. Sure, drymounting is the quickest and cheapest way to stick an image to a piece of backing, but it's important to know what you're signing up for. So, here's a quick reference guide for the process of drymounting!\nDrymounting is, in its broadest sense, is a permanent mounting process that does not involve the use of any liquid adhesives. Emphasis on permanent - even though in some situations the adhesion can be undone, it is designed to be permanent. The image, once mounted, is attached to its backing indefinitely. In framing, the drymounting process more specifically refers to using a heat-activated adhesive to mount an image to a sheet of foamcore. There are generally two methods for this. The older method uses sheets of drymount tissue - a thin, waxy paper that melts slightly in high temperatures - to adhere the image to the backing. This method is a little more time-consuming, but allows the framer to use a wide variety of materials for backing. A newer method uses foamcore backing that is pre-treated on one side with a heat-activated adhesive. This method is fast and inexpensive - just 30-90 seconds in the press (depending on the thickness of the paper) and you have a beautifully mounted piece!\nThe appeal of this mount method lies in its lower cost and the lovely smooth, flat finish it gives to a mounted piece. The cons are its permanence and the inherent risks involved where adhesives, heat, and pressure come in contact with art. Generally speaking, you should not drymount a piece if any of the following are true:\nThe piece is an irreplaceable original.\nThe piece is valuable and that value would be diminished by a change to its condition.\nThe material the artwork is made of is weakened by excessive damage or age.\nThe material the artwork is made of would be adversely affected by temperatures of 150\u00b0F or higher.\nThe piece has 3-dimensional elements.\nSo then, when would you use drymounting? In most situations, posters, photographs, and certificates are ideal for this process. They lie flat, have solid constitutions, and can be replaced with relative ease. You can feel secure about drymounting these pieces, and know that they'll look crisp and professional when finished! In fact, if you're looking to frame a poster, we even offer a poster special that includes the drymount, frame, and glass for only $49.95-$69.95, regardless of size! It's a great option to work with.\nAs always, if you're ever unsure about how to mount a particular piece, your local framer is there to help! We can take a look at any piece and give you a solid recommendation for the best way to mount it. Trust us - we're professionals!",

        "raw_content": "General Information about Dental Implants\nMissing teeth can often be replaced by implants. Implants act like roots of teeth. After they have been fitted and have healed in place, dentures or crowns may be attached to them. When dentures are held in place by implants they do not slip around. If crowns are fitted on implants they act like normal teeth\nThere are various types of implants, however, the most commonly placed throughout the world are often described as root-form or endosseous implants. These generally have a cylindrical form and may be threaded on the outer surface to assist placement. Other designs such as blades or subperiosteals whilst in use by some practitioners are not the focus of this information. The success and rapid growth in popularity of the root-form implant is largely due to its predictable behaviour when trying to achieve a rigid fixation with the surrounding bone and the maintenance of this state throughout many years of function.\nImplants can only be placed if there is enough bone present in the jaw. When teeth are lost, the bone around the teeth gradually disappears. If too much bone has been lost it is sometimes possible to grow bone in its place.\nFor people who have NO remaining teeth the alternatives are:\n\u2022 Complete dentures\n\u2022 Implants which secure their dentures in place\n\u2022 Implants which support crowns and bridges\nFor people who have SOME of their own teeth the alternatives are:\n\u2022 Crowns and bridges supported by implants and/or teeth\n\u2022 Partial dentures secured by implants and/or teeth\n\u2022 Partial dentures supported by teeth\n\u2022 Bridges supported by teeth\nThe initial evaluation and additional diagnostic material\nTo plan the most suitable treatment certain information is helpful for example photographs, x-rays, models of your teeth and jaws. In some circumstances, a more comprehensive three-dimensional x-ray evaluation using a CT Scan may be requested to give greater detail of the shape of your jaws.\nThe conventional x-ray views most familiar to patients are only 2-dimensional and subject to varying degrees of distortion and inaccuracy. Where important anatomical structures must be avoided, the information they provide may therefore be inadequate. The CT scan in contrast can provide life-sized 3-dimensional information of all regions of the upper and/or lower jaw from which precise measurements can be taken for pre-operative treatment planning. In some cases the CT scan may also be used to evaluate the results of bone grafting procedures prior to placing implants.\nHaving a healthy mouth\nImplants survive best in a healthy environment. Any tooth decay or gum problems need to be corrected before implants are placed to give them the best chance of success.\nSometimes treatment is needed before you are ready for implants\nGum Health: This may involve the use of special brushing methods, flossing, tooth picks and small \u201cbottle\u201d brushes. Some gum treatment may be necessary.\nRemoval of Unsavable Teeth: Despite advances in modern dentistry some teeth may have reached a stage when no treatment can save them. It is often best to remove them at an early stage, particularly if you are thinking of having implants so as to prevent further bone loss.\nTreatment of existing or potential oral infections\nTreat or remove all pre-existing oral infection wherever possible. The success of implant therapy can be seriously affected by infections resulting from failed gum or root canal treatments or untreated gum disease or nerve problems in sites adjacent to implants. Long-standing infections of the soft-tissues beneath dentures can also adversely affect healing at the various surgical stages. Your treatment may be delayed whilst these areas are resolved.\nAlthough gum infections arising in opposite jaws have no clearly proven link with problems around implants, there is at least the theoretical risk of bacterial transmission, therefore for the meantime it would be considered prudent to assume that there is a risk. Your mouth should be treated as a whole and not simply as unrelated regions.\nHow many implants?\nAs a general principle, as many implants as possible should be used. This allows the stresses of biting to be spread over the maximum number of implants, thus diminishing the load on each particular one.\nSome people find it more convenient to proceed in stages.\nIt is sometimes possible to have two or three implants placed, use them for a while and some time later, add more implants to improve the treatment plan. This is not an approach which is feasible in all situations and is probably most suited for treatment of the lower jaw where no teeth are present.\nAn example of this might be the patient with no teeth in the lower jaw who has two or more implants placed in the first instance. By stabilizing their denture using the implants, it can be held more firmly in place. Later on, if they have sufficient bone, more implants can be added and eventually fixed-teeth placed on the implants eliminating the denture altogether. A number of the implant systems available today could support this approach, however the feasibility of upgrading should be confirmed by all parties rather than assumed.\nWhat is it like having implants fitted?\nGenerally speaking, having implants fitted is not at all painful. For apprehensive patients, sedation can be given making the procedure quite comfortable.\nWhat is it like after having the implants placed?\nThe after-effects of having implants placed are usually mild and may include slight bruising, dull ache, and swelling, the amount of which will vary dependent upon the number of implants placed and the difficulty of the surgical procedures.\nWhen choosing a date for implant placement avoids significant social engagements and work commitments for at least a week after. This is just to be on the safe side. Taking time off work is not usually necessary.\nAdditional procedures before implant placement\nIt is a natural phenomenon that after teeth have been removed the bone that once supported them slowly resorts away. This occurs faster when prolonged gum problems have been present or poorly fitting dentures are being worn. The result is that there is sometimes not enough bone to support implants.\nWhen there is not enough bone present, it may be necessary to create new bone to fill in missing areas allowing implants to be fitted. A variety of techniques are available to do this and these are referred to as \u2018bone grafting.\u2019\nThe bone used in these situations may be specially treated donor material from a \u2018Bone Bank,\u2019 a synthetic substitute, or taken from areas in the mouth where there is some spare. In special cases where larger amounts of bone are needed it is possible to move bone from other places such as the hip or shin to the deficient area of the mouth. The area from which the bone is taken will regroup.\nWhere the clinical conditions indicate that bone grafting is required to increase the amount of bone into which implants are placed it will generally increase the time taken to complete treatment. Under routine circumstances where no bone grafting is required the implants are commonly ready to begin function between 3 and 6 months later. If the bone grafting can be undertaken at the same time that implants are placed, treatment is more likely to take 6 to 1 2 months. Where implant placement must be delayed until after maturation of the bone graft, overall treatment may take 1 2 to 18 months.\nA technique call \u2018guided tissue regeneration\u2019 has also shown considerable success where the amount of bone at the intended implant site is less than ideal.\nWhen a tooth is removed a hole in the gum and bone remains for the first few weeks. Anyone who has lost a tooth or had an extraction knows that this generally heals uneventfully, and eventually you cannot tell where the tooth was.\nThe basic principle behind \u2018guided tissue regeneration\u2019 is that placing a special membrane over the extraction socket creates a layer above which the fast growing soft tissue cells are prevented from entering the bony socket. This allows bone cells present beneath the membrane the extra time they need to fill the socket without competition from soft tissues to occupy the same space.\nSinus augmentations\nThe purpose of sinus augmentation\nIt is very common to find that the softer bone in the area above the upper back teeth (molars and sometimes premolars) is very shallow and not suitable for normal implant procedures. To solve this problem a procedure knows as a \u2018sinus augmentation\u2019 or \u2018sinus lift\u2019 was developed.\nBone may be successfully grown in the sinus spaces above your upper back teeth allowing implants to be placed. Specially treated donor bone from a \u2018Bone Bank,\u2019 synthetic bone substitutes, or bone from other areas of the mouth or body is placed into these empty areas. Over a period of time this is replaced by new bone thus providing a bed into which implants can be fixed.\nImplant Placement and bone grafting\nIf the amount of bone overlying the sinus is adequate, some surgeons prefer to place the implants at the same time as the grafting procedures. Whatever type of bone is added to the sinus it must be left to mature before implants are placed or brought into function. If the implants are placed as a secondary procedure, (depending on the amount of bone being grown and the nature of the graft material used), they can be inserted after four to nine months, although occasionally it may be necessary to wait longer.\nAs with other bone grafting procedures the implants are left to become firmly attached to bone. Commonly a slightly extended healing period is chosen with an average of six to nine months before a denture or crown and bridgework is fitted. However, all bone grafting is unique to each individual and this information is for guidance only.\nAdditional procedures at the time of implant placement\nDespite the thoroughness of the planning, extra procedures are sometimes required during treatment to produce the best results. It is important that in this event you accept that appropriate alternative treatment is performed at the time of treatment although it may be different to that already planned.\nDuring treatment fees may vary due to:\n\u2022 Alternative procedures required due to changes in the treatment plan.\n\u2022 New treatments becoming available in the course of your treatment.\n\u2022 Treatment extending over a longer period of time than expected.\nIf for some reason it is not possible to proceed with the planned procedure at the treatment appointment, the time spent will be charged at the normal hourly rate. An alternative treatment may be performed if considered appropriate\nSometimes bone may be lost around an implant. There are techniques available to treat these problems if the cause can be identified. In some situations however, progressive bone loss might result in the loss of the implant.\nlmplantology is a rapidly advancing science. We may take advantage of some of the new procedures or materials as they become available if they promise to significantly improve the outcome. Alterations to your original plan may therefore be made during your treatment.\nHow long does the treatment take to complete?\nThis depends on the complexity of the treatment. Initially there is a treatment planning stage which may last a month or so. Then there may be some time spent on such preparatory procedures as improving gum health, removing any unsavable teeth and growing bone. This may take anything from a few weeks to many months.\nAfter the implants are placed they are left to settle in place from three to six months. The final fitting of crowns or bridges or the attaching of dentures to the implants takes a month or two. The time depends on your individual situation.\nSpecial medication will be prescribed for you to help healing and produce minimal discomfort. To gain the most benefit please follow the instructions given.\nDo not rush your treatment\nIt is important that neither the patient nor the implant provider attempt to rush the treatment or try to advance the various stages faster than the time required for complete healing and maturation of bone and soft-tissues.\nEven treatment that is well-planned and executed can fail as a result of moving too quickly from stage to stage. If you do not have the time available, then it may be more sensible to consider conventional forms of dentistry which can be completed more rapidly.\nYour implant provider may suggest that procedures to grow bone are undertaken separately from placing the implants, even though under certain conditions it is possible to combine these stages.\nPrecautions for denture wearers\nWearing dentures immediately after surgery?\nDenture wearers may require their dentures to be modified or be asked to leave them out for a period of time to prevent them resting on newly placed implants. During settling-in stages, metal framework dentures may need to be replaced with a plastic set as they are more easily adjustable. The fitting surface can then be altered when the implants are placed.\nReporting problems and queries\nIf anything arises that you are concerned about, telephone immediately. Usually there is nothing to worry about, but no matter how apparently trivial, it is always better to check.\nThe finished teeth \u2013 Aftercare\nUnlike teeth, implants cannot get tooth decay. However, like teeth, they can suffer from gum problems. Teeth with untreated gum problems can become loose and be lost. This is also true of implants.\nThorough daily cleaning is as important with implants as it is with teeth.\nFollow-up Appointments and Regular Check-ups\nImplant success and your commitment to long-term maintenance?\nTo ensure that any problems are detected early, regular maintenance check-ups are advisable. Problems are more easily treated if detected early. Check-ups may be recommended three, four or six monthly.\nIn most cases review appointments will be more frequent during the first year that the implants are in function. Regular check-ups are every bit as important as they are with natural teeth, if not more so.\nSome examples of problems that can arise\nPorcelain crowns attached to implants can break as they can when attached to natural teeth. However, removal of crowns from implants for repair is usually easier than from natural teeth. Implant supported bridges that become loose should be re-tightened immediately to reduce the likelihood of further unnecessary damage.\nShould it be discovered during a routine maintenance visit that an implant has failed or is failing, appropriate remedial action will be planned accordingly. Implants that become loose will not re-tighten and should be removed at the earliest opportunity. Should you notice any areas of soreness, discharge or pain on chewing near any implant or tooth you must immediately report this to the dentist responsible for your maintenance.\nSuccess depends on your body\u2019s reaction to implants and your personal care of them. Implants can fail due to gum disease just as teeth do. Success is constantly improving due to improved techniques. Natural teeth last longer today as awareness of the need for looking after them becomes more accepted. However, there would not be a need for implants if teeth were totally successful.\n\u201cSuccess rates for implants now compare very favourably with all other forms of dentistry\u201d\nBoth smoking and heavy alcohol consumption reduce the survival of implants (and teeth). If you think that either of these two habits could be a problem for you and your implants, it may be advisable to avoid this form of dental treatment or accept the higher risk of implant failure.",

        "raw_content": "Glomerulonephritis can be a primary autoimmune disease or secondary to infections, heartworm, cancers, and other autoimmune diseases. It is potentially lethal. In primary glomerulonephritis the immune system attacks the glomeruli, the filters in the kidneys. Dogs with glomerulonephritis may exhibit lethargy, weight loss, and occasionally fluid accumulation in the abdomen and elsewhere. When kidney damage has advanced sufficiently, the dog will show signs of kidney failure including vomiting, increased drinking and urination, and bad breath.\nPositive diagnosis is made by ruling out other possible causes and biopsy. Primary glomerulonephritis can be treated with medication and reduction of dietary protein. Long term care requires re-evaluation every three to six months.\nPrimary glomerulonephritis is a type of autoimmune disease. Autoimmune diseases are genetically predisposed; if a dog has the disease, it has the genes. Dogs affected with primary glomerulonephritis should not be bred. Their near relatives should not be bred to mates with a family history of any autoimmune disease.",

It is the prime model of the Romanesque style in \u00c1vila and its measured proportions make it a unique example of the Hispanic Romanesque style. With its outside influences and the influence of the cathedral construction, it is also the propagator of the style in the town.\nIt has a Latin-cross layout with three six-section naves and one transept. Interestingly, it also has a Gothic clerestory on the side naves. The narrow upper end, with its three apses, stands on a liturgical funeral crypt.\nIts construction began around 1120 with the building of the main body up to the west entrance; the towers and narthex of the entrance were built between 1150 and 1170 and the side naves were closed off with depressed quarter-barrel vaults; a ribbed vault was built above the central nave in Gothic style. The apse was covered with an octagonal vault halfway through the 13th century.\nThe storiated capitals of the main chapel, the cenotaph of the saints (by Fruchel and dating from the mid-12th century), showing the arrest, sentencing and martyrdom of Saints Vincent, Sabina and Cristeta, the west porch and the southern cornice stand as the best examples of Romanesque sculpture in the church and also in the town.\nThe porticoed gallery was built on the south front in the 15th century.\nSan Vicente was the first Spanish building to be restored in historicist style, with work by Hern\u00e1ndez Callejo, Vicente Miranda and, above all, Repull\u00e9s y Vargas from the mid-19th century to the first quarter of the 20th century.\nThe crypt boasts a statue of the Madonna of La Soterra\u00f1a (15th century), which was venerated by St Teresa of Jesus.\nReduced: 1,50 \u20ac\n*The opening times and prices of the monuments are set by each establishment.",

        "raw_content": "Continued from the FAQ main page...\n\" Even though I walk (not run) through the\nvalley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil;\n(Why?) for Thou art with with me; Thy rod and\nThy staff, they comfort me. (Ultimately)... I will\nlive in the house of the Lord forever.\"\n-Pslams 23: 4, 6 NASB/italics mine.\nBeing in the \"shadow ' of something requires that one be in the immediate vicinity or under the object casting the shadow. In this case, the Psalmist speaks of being under circumstances in which the end result could very well be physical death.\nThe shadow that death is found in any situation or circumstances in which the likelihood of physical death could be present, approaching, or immanent. I have been in that valley more than once in the course of my time here on Earth, but obviously the end result of these valley experiences ultimately revealed that my appointed time of departure had not come. God still had more work for me to do.\nA spiritually mature believer will not desire to depart this world until all the work that God has ordained for him/her has been accomplished. At the same time, the spiritually mature believer will not desire to remain here any longer once the work has been finished (Phil. 1: 23).\nI believe that all of us have come a lot closer to death than what we are ever aware. God, directly or working through His angels behind the scenes has quitely intervened in the developing circumstances and situations that otherwise would have taken our lives. In many cases, the devil will counter-attack by trying to encourage survivors' guilt. The truth is that NO ONE dies before his appointed time, and no one lives beyond it. Even the sins of attempted homicide or suicide can succeed unless the permissive will of God allows for it. In neither case does the soul come to an end.\nWhat, at the time, many have seemed to be an annoying delay like a dead battery, last minute phone call, flat tire along the way, etc., may have very well saved us from being in the right place at the wrong time resulting in physical injury or death. Sometimes it comes down to a matter of only a few seconds or the slightest movement (or delay) of bodily movement that determines the avoidance or the encounter with a fatal event. We hear of such reports following horrific incidents such as the 911 tower event in New York, but I believe such things take place on an individual basis many more times that we are ever aware.\nDeath does not always involve a preceding valley event. It can manifest itself so suddenly that the departed soul never sees it coming and passes away within seconds of the trauma that proved to be fatal. In many cases, one's earthly departure can involve a long, drawn out, period of physical and or mental decline as the departing soul goes through the valley of the shadow of death waiting the end to come. Whichever extreme or middle of the road experience that any one soul encounters, it is a part of the plan that God ordained for that individual when He authored the Divine Decree.\nAlthough I would not wish such things as a diagnosis of cancer on anyone, I can tell you from personal experience that going through such an ordeal can afford an advancing disciple a trip though the valley of the shadow of death that will clearly reveal to oneself (and others) where he truly is in his/her walk with Lord.\nNote that I said, \"walk\". This walk involves one's day to day personal and intimate relationship with the Lord that should be a continuing work in progress throughout the course of one's post (after) salvation spiritual life. Death is NOT the end of the relationship, only a change in location and bodily form leaving our physical bodies, our earthly trials, and the finally the old sin nature behind as we depart.\nPerhaps in no greater time is there the need for one to have an edified (past tense) soul structure (Matt. 7: 24-27) than IF/when one should find him/self suddenly in the valley of the shadow of death. When a tornado strikes is NOT the time for one to start building a storm shelter. Just as in the natural realm there are many different types of storms with different levels of intensity and potential danger, so it is in the \"storms\" cited in Matt. 7: 24-27. For those without having ALREADY built an edified soul structure, the \"storm\" associated with the valley of the shadow of death can be one of the greatest challenges to what one claims to be believe.\nBeing a Christian disciple is easy when everything is going \"our\" way. It is in the midst of adversity that we one's faithfulness (not his salvation) is tested. The greater the adversity, the greater the opportunity to glorify God or to be defeated by the devil. One (God) or the other (Satan) will be honored by what we think, do, and say.\nIt has been a long time contention of the devil that if enough adversity it placed on a human soul, the person will eventually curse God to His face (Job 1: 11). The devil was proven wrong in the case of Job, but many who claim to be Christians would not do as well.\nThe TRUE post salvation spiritual life does NOT at all mean that the advancing disciple is immune to all of the adversity common to Man, here in the devil's world. In fact, taking a look at such passages found in the Book of Job and applying the persecution factor of (2 Timothy 3: 12), one can see that identifying and executing the TRUE post salvation spiritual life is what brings on more adversity than what one would otherwise experience.\nThe devil does not waste ammunition firing at the live of \"Christians\" that pose no threat to his agenda. Never being the target of satanic attack should make one wonder why the devil does not see one worth or bullet, or worse, wonder what the devil is promoting all that one does (or doesn't do) in the spiritual realm. In so many cases, the devil already has us right where he wants us and has no reason to rattle our cages.\nContrary to what the \"name it and claim it\" and \"prosperity\" preachers would have us believe, the TRUE \ufeffpost salvation spiritual life\ufeff offers very little of what earthly minded believers desire to experience here in the devil's world. The devil (Luke 4: 6) has the ability and willingness to \"bless\" any one who is willing to knowingly or unwittingly do the devil's bidding.\nAs it was stated by the Apostle Paul, \"If we (believers) have hoped (placed the outcome of our future) in Christ (for what we can get out of) in this life only, we are of all men to be pitied (1 Cor. 15: 9 NASB/italics mine.\"\n\"Death bed\" conversions (for salvation) do take place (Luke 23: 40-42), but no one is given ANY guarantee that he/she is going to be afforded that opportunity. There a thousands of souls who will leave this Earth today, whose departure was the last thing that they or many who knew them had expected!\nWe can choose to be \"religious\" and/or to live relatively moral lifestyles at any time for a variety of self-centered reasons. Never the less, being \"religious\" saves NO ONE! We do not choose when God the Holy Spirit will arrange for us to hear the Gospel and be provided with the God-given enabling power to understand the information being presented. An evangelist can communicate the Gospel and a pastor-teacher can communicate post-salvation doctrine, but unless GOD the Holy spirit is ministering to the soul at that time, NOTHING is going to be accomplished (John 15: 5).\nEvangelists and pastors see this all the time. People will respond to a presentation of the TRUE Gospel or a principle of post salvation doctrine as if it were the first time they ever heard it, but has been communicated to them many times in the past, but fell on spiritually deaf ears.\nThe principles of (Luke 8: 5-8) can be a very frustrating reality to the one who ministers. At the same time, there is no greater joy or privilege (outside of his own salvation/edification) that an advancing disciple can experience here on Earth, than to be made aware by the fruit produced that he was used of God to communicate the TRUE Gospel or post salvation doctrine that resulted in either the salvation or edification of another soul.\nBeing \"saved\" (born again John 3: 3, 7) assures the believer of a home in Heaven when death comes. However, being saved ( saved = a recipient of eternal life) does NOT , by itself , mean that one is going to have the spiritual maturity to experience the peace that surpasses all (human) understanding (Phil. 4: 6, 7) or to glorify God (Luke 6: 45) if/when one is called to endure a long and drawn out physical and spiritual battle in valley of the shadow of death.\nI am not speaking against evangelizing a dying person. netter to be saved and go to Heaven without reward (1 Cor. 3: 15) that to go to Hell! What I am pointing out is that being saved and experiencing the post salvation life of a spiritually mature believer is not the same thing.\nAll saved souls will go to Heaven. Some with great rewards and privileges awaiting them, others will little or none. Success or failure in any part of the post salvation spiritual life (including the departing phase) can either increase nor can it decrease the integrity of one's salvation, but success or failure WILL impact the rewards and privileges received or forfeited (1 Cor. 3: 12-15).\nThe focus of attention of this presentation is the vastly different experiences that can take place in the valley of the shadow of death between spiritually mature and spiritually believers BEFORE and as they depart this Earth.\nA physically painful and horrific departure or process does NOT mean that the person involved is outside of the will of God. All one has to do is look at what took place leading up to and on the cross to see that!\nThe devil can do nothing about where the soul of a born again believer is going once the moment of death has arrived, but he can do much to destroy what could have been the most meaningful testimony of faith that he/she might leave behind! The devil attempts to do destroy the testimony of a believer by distracting the believer throughout the course of one's post salvation spiritual life from growing in God's grace and knowledge (2 Pet. 3: 18).\nThese \"distractions\" can come in the form of both overt \"prosperity\" (Luke 4: 6) and or internal adversity (Matt. 7: 24-2).\nIf one's health,bodily functions, and mobility deteriorates, one can be medically sedated and cared for resulting in being relieved of much physical pain and suffering. One can receive anti-anxiety medication. One can receive the hygienic and practical services of health care professionals. One can benefit psychologically by death counselors. As long as one remains conscious, he/she can benefit by the presence and general conversation of with other people, especially if the one afflicted is a \"people\" person.\nAs great as these forms of human good can be, they can do nothing for the spiritual benefit of the soul!\nEach human soul has its own areas of strengths and weaknesses. This is true of both the one in the valley of the shadow of death, and those who interact with him/her. Unresolved, and especially deep-rooted, inter-personal issues and conflicts do NOT go away unless ALL of the souls involved are willing to address them. Accordingly, there are times that all one can do is to resolve them in one's own soul, and move on by extending forgiveness to the one's who choose to commit the sin of refusing to forgive others.\nKeep on mind that although our sin and the sins of others hurt ourselves and others, it is against God that we and they have sinned. Forgiving one another (or refusing to do so) is an act of either obedience or disobedience that WE choose make, receiving either the blessings or the consequences of that decision. If the \"other half\" of the scenario wishes to continue on with the conflict, don't be pulled back into it.\nI believe there is room and the need for forgiveness in virtually ever scenario of life, but there are many who will choose to NEVER address the deep rooted and accumulated disappointments, bitterness, vindictiveness, meanness, ignorance, arrogance that dominated most of their time, here on Earth. Some will choose to play God, by going as far as to reward the one's he/she judges worthy and punish those who failed to measure up, expressed in the final arrangements he/she makes.\nThe wise soul will see the clouds gathering and prepare him/herself for the impending storm, be it in the capacity of the one in the valley or one who will interact with ones who are.\nIn order for an advancing disciple to reap many of the divine blessings, such as the peace that surpasses all understanding (Phil.4: 7) that can be his/hers while in the valley of the shadow of death, he/she must be in fellowship (2 Cor. 13: 14) with God.\nOne cannot be entertaining any current sin or sinful lifestyle or be harboring ANY past sin that has not been confessed (1 John 1: 9) and/or forsaken (John 8: 11), including but not limited to the sin of refusing to forgive others, the sin of guilt, the sin of bitterness, etc., etc., etc, and be in fellowship with God at the same time.\nNote that I did NOT say that one cannot either be saved (if one is an unbeliever) or that he/she will not remain saved (if he/she is a born again believer). What I said that was in order for one to experience the blessing of God throughout life and especially while in the valley of the shadow of death, he/she must be in fellowship with God. Fellowship with God BEGINS at the moment of salvation, but fellowship (not salvation) must be maintained through the 1 John 1 : 9 process whenever we engage in ANY post (after) salvation sin.\nUnresolved issues can easily become more intensified when in the valley of the shadow of death. There is a divine solution (tolerance, forgiveness, etc.) for each one of the them, but the weaknesses and natural tendencies of the fallen nature in ALL of us may (or may not) be restrained, and are more likely to manifest themselves when one is pushed beyond his/her individual level of human capacity to handle the present circumstances.\nContrary to what how many believers are taught or interpret (1 Cor. 10: 13), believers are NOT promised that they will not find themselves in situations beyond their HUMAN ability to handle. This false application is the result of only reading the first part of the passage, and ignoring tbe \"but....\" part!\n\"No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common\nto man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted\nbeyond what you are able (to handle), but WITH THE\nTEMPTATION will provide the way of escape, also, that\nyou will be able to endure it (1 Cor. 10: 13 NASB italics mine).\"\nWhat (1 Cor/ 10: 13) says is that believers will not find himself in such a situation without having had the opportunity (Matt. 7: 24-27) and means (John 15: 5) to make use of the divine solutions to have avoided or to handle the situation with divine power! The means of avoidance, escape, or endurance are the principles that one should have ALREADY made a part of his/her edified soul structure (Matt. 7: 24-27) BEFORE the storm struck. The battle is won with the divine power of John 15: 5 available to those is fellowship (2 Cor. 13: 14) in God at the time, not with our own HUMAN power or ability. How one is to handle a trip to or through the valley of the shadow of death is the same!\nChoosing to be out of fellowship with God; or choosing to be willfully ignorant of the applicable doctrines, and/or choosing to apply the doctrines that one has in his/her soul structure will almost guarantee one's failure when the storms of adversity strike! Not only does GOd not spare us of such adversity, but may be ONE who sends/allows such things as warnings and teaching aids to reveal to us the need to conduct 2COr.1 3: 15 examinations and to make the necessary adjustments. If we choose not to do so, we are only setting the stage for repeating the same form of adversity with more intensity and frequency, often times reaching its full force in the valley of the shadow of death.\nHaving unresolved issues with either God or other people is foolish. ALL unresolved issues with God can be settled with having an edified soul structure and making use of it when the situation call for it. Unresolved issues with other people CAN be resolved by applying the appropriate doctrine, but ONLY f all parties concerned wish to resolve them. It akes TWO to fight (or to continue to fight) and it takes all parties involved to end it!\nWhen an issue is settled with God, HE never raises the issue again (Psalms 103: 12). The 1 Cor. 3: 12-15 judgment (of believers) is not for the purpose of addressing ANY sin. It is for purpose of the evaluation, receiving, or forfeiture of rewards, NOT salvation (1 Cor. 3: 15). The judgment of unbelievers (Rev. 20: 13, 15) is for the judgment of ONE sin (the sin of disbelief), as it is for this ONE sin and ONE sin only that unbelievers are cast forever into the lake of fire. ALL other sins were paid for in full by the atoning Work of the Lord Jesus Christ.\nHere on Earth, the secular systems for the administration of justice, the devil, the pride/fear of our own fallen nature, or other people are not so forgiving, and often WILL hold us accountable for the offenses and hurt our actions cause.\nDivine forgiveness does NOT immune us to answering to the law(s) of Man (Romans 13). In the valley of the shadow of death, there is little that administration of secular justice can do. In many jurisdictions, capital punishment will not be imposed, and in some case, being in valley of the shadow of death may even result in one being released form prison.\nAs for the devil, he will use the sin of guilt to encourage us to doubt the forgiveness of God. The arrogance, fear, and false pride of the fallen nature within us will pressure us in the same way in an attempt to destroy our fellowship with God and the potential of producing a great testimony of faith.\nAs for people, there are some people who will never let by gones be by gones, often to solicit the pity, attention, and aid of others. Such sin (refusing to forgive others) can result in Earthly divine discipline (Heb. 12: 6) for believers.\nThe bottom line, I believe, is NOT to have over expectations of either the one afflicted or oneself, and be not guilted or manipulated into action(s) that is beyond one's level of capacity or responsibility.\nMedical, social, and psychological remedies do NOT address the spiritual needs of the soul. Human solutions, to some degree, can only at best, address the symptoms but not the disease. What (bitterness vs. contentment/peace vs. anxiety, etc.) comes out of the mouth (Matt. 15: 18/James 3: 9, 10), or is communicated by body language speaks volumes about what is really going on in one's soul structure at any given time.\n\"But the (good or bad) things that proceed out of the mouth\ncome from the heart (soul structure), and those (bad things)\ndefile (render useless for the purposes of God) the man.\"\n-Matt. 15: 18 NASB/italics mine.\n\"With it (our tongues) we (born again believers) bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men who have been made in the likeness of God; from\nthe same mouth come both blessings and cursing.....\".\n-James 3: 9, 10 NASB/italics mine.\nWhat comes out (or is restrained from coming) out of the mouths of a human being is based on one of two sources of influence, determined by what power source has the reigns of the soul at any given moment.\nPower source # 1 = Human nature. The human nature in ALL of us, believers and unbelievers alike\nand is capable of producing both human good and EVIL It produces good human\ndeeds for a variety of reasons. It produce evil when it hands the control over to the\nevil influence of the fallen nature.\nPower source #2 = Divine power (John 15: 5). Divine power is comes from God. Here is the Church\nAge it is available to believers as of the moment of salvation, and remains available as long as fellowship\nwith God is in place. Fellowship (not salvation) is suspended as a result of post salvation sin, but is restored\nand maintained via the 1 John 1: 9 confession and John 8: 11 forsaking of the same sin. Without divine\npower, divine good can NOT be produced, making the TRUE post salvation spiritual life an impossibility to\nSome say that illness, alcohol, and drugs can make a person mean, when in fact the meanness (or any other negative personality trait) being exhibited or expressed was ALWAYS a part of that soul structure, but is no longer being restrained. It is what we are at our worse moments that reveals the darkest part of the dark side of the fallen nature within all of us (Romans 7).\nLike ANY other phase in one's post salvation spiritual life, the divine purpose of one's departing event or process is for the believer to conduct himself, in thought and action, in a manner that brings glory to God. As was (or should have been) the case during the course of one's entire post salvation spiritual life, a Church Age believer glorifies God by learning and executing the TRUE post salvation spiritual life of discipleship. The fact that one finds himself in the valley of the shadow of death does NOT change the divine purpose for his/her purpose, here on Earth.\n\"...Shall we indeed accept good from God and not accept adversity?\" -Job 2: 10 NASB\nAs in the case of Job, it is NOT unusual for a spiritually mature believer to be the one who ministers to the well-intending, but spiritually immature visitors that come to offer \"consolation\"t to the one in the valley of shadow of death. In some cases, GOD arranges the departing circumstances of a spiritual mature believer to be what they are. This is one scenario that can be an exception to the principle of (Mark 6: 4).\n\"And Jesus said to them, \"A prophet (spokesperson for God) is not\nwithout honor except in his own town and among his own relatives\nand in his own household (Mark 6: 6 NASB italics mine).\"\nAs was in case is every phase of one's post salvation spiritual life, there will be moments of both victory and failure on the part of the believer. What will determine the overall success or failure will be the percentage of time he/she is in fellowship with God.\nWhat one thinks about death and/or the process of dying speaks volumes about what he/she truly believes and has confidence in and what he/she has doubts and fears over,or as he faces the ultimate test of walking the walk and well as talking the talk when one if one finds himself in the valley of the shadow of death.\nThe comfort (peace/security) that a spiritually mature believer experiences in the valley of shadow of death comes from the same shepherd's rod and staff that (should have) guided, directed, and corrected his ways throughout the course of one's post salvation spiritual life. Each spiritual battle along the way was what (should have) prepared the believer to engage in the final round of spiritual warfare associated with the valley of the shadow of death, if that is what God's plan for that individual has been ordained to be.\nWell, exactly rod and staff being spoken of in Psalms 23?\nThe 23rd Psalm draws on the analogy of the symbolic shepherd. The rod and staff of the shepherd were tools of the trade that were used to protect and to guide the flock of sheep. Here in the Church Age, the \"Shepherd\" is the Lord and the rod and staff are the principles found in the Word of God. Without the guidance, protection, and discipline of the shepherd, the flock would wander and often times fall prey to its natural enemies.\nHere in the Church Age, the believer who does not submit himself to the discipline and the guidance of the Word of God is likewise an easy target for the devil (and/or his agents ) who prowl around looking for someone to destroy (1 Pet. 5: 8).\nThe salvation of a born again believer is NEVER is jeopardy, but his ability to identify, execute, and maintain a productive post salvation spiritual life is on the line, moment to moment, each and every day! Keep in mind that if and when God so wills, the valley of the shadow of death is just as much a part of one's post salvation spiritual life as the parts and seasons that we (should have) enjoyed along the way. Again the words of Job; \"Are we to accept good from God and not accept adversity?\nJob's \"friends\", although probably acting in the best of interests offered Job NOTHING of value.\nIf a prosperous life and an easy departure were always the end result of living for God, then the Lord Jesus Christ and many of the apsotles and martyrs of the Church Age would have many issues with God the Father. God is NOT interested in self-imposed lifestyles of deprivation or a self-imposed horrific departure, but He is greatly glorified by those who endure much suffering when the suffering is part of plan that He endorsed for any given soul.\nThis brings us to the concluding point as we answer the FAQ at hand.\nFear and faith are mutually exclusive. The more one as of either one, the less he has of the other.\nLook at a jar that containing no more and no less than 100 red and blue marbles of a certain size when filled to capacity. The total amount of marbles can not be changed, but the ratio of blue to red can be altered. The more one has of EITHER one, the less the same person has of the other. The total jar represents the entire soul stucture, containing both good and bad elements that can encourage faith and/or generate fear. As faith is increased, fear is decreased. The more fear is increased, the more more faith in decreased.\nPossessing information and faith in the information one possesses is NOT necessarily the same thing. There are many scholars that can quote the Bible from cover to cover, but do NOT have the wisdom to discern its accurate interpretation nor the faith to apply it! Many \"Christians\" attend Church and become frequent hearers of the Word, but often fail to be doers of the Word (James 1: 22). When a born again believer is not a doer of the Word throughout the course of his/her post salvation spiritual life, it is very unlikely that he/she will develop the spiritual maturity needed to be successful at glorifying God if he/she finds him/herself in the valley of the shadow of death.\n\"....prove yourselves doers of the Word, and not merely hearers who\ndelude themselves (James 1: 22 NASB).\"\nFaith is a two-side coin. Faith consists of both a noun and a verb. Faith is WHAT we believe, and is the ACTION of applying WHAT we claim to believe to how we think. There is a difference between what we KNOW factually, and what we BELIEVE. When sharing a principle of the Word of God, the recipient may respond with, \"I know that.\", but may fail to see where he/she is not applying it to his/her circumstances.\nWhat we think is what we are, as it impacts ALL that we do and say. If one is to experience the benefits (peace/assurance) of faith while going through the valley of the shadow of death, he/she must have ALREADY (Matt. 7: 24-27) obtained the correct information pertaining to what God has said concerning it, and then APPLY it to his/her individual situation.\nWith the free will that God has given to each one of us, we have many, many choices impacting much about what we will or will not go through during our time here on Earth. There are some things, however, that we will be given NO choice over. God did NOT consult us concerning the timing and circumstances of our birth and is not going to consult us concerning the timing and circumstances of our departure. In the meantime, we can make many choices that can contribute to (or destroy) the quality of the environments that we experience here on Earth.\nWhen dealing with the things that we have NO choice over, there is still the choice of HOW we will fact such challenges.\nExperiencing fear, anxiety, and insecurity, as far as s-p-i-r-i-t-u-a-l issues are concerned, reveals that the one so afflicted is in the grip of slavery of the devil (Heb. 2: 15). Sad to say, but much of pressure of the devil's bondage is supported by the \"religious\" world. The devil knows the pressure that the religous world can generate. The devil takes full advantage of the willful ignorance and the lack of knowledge (Hosea 4: 6) in the soul structures of many to claim to be Christians.\nSpiritual ignorance is a CHOICE that we make and the negative consequences are self-induced misery!\nTo whatever extent one has ANY fear or anxiety in his/her soul structure concerning God and/or the things of God, these are the issues that one must resolve BEFORE (Matt. 7: 24-27) the time of one's departure (or the process leading up to one's departure) arrives. THIS is what is required if one is to experience no fear in the valley of the shadow of death if such a trek is to be a part of the walk with God that He has ordained for any one of us.",

        "raw_content": "Fiddling? Australian-sourced International Patent Applications Down in 2006\nIt was with some concern that I read the Patent Co-operation Treaty (PCT) review of 2006. It can be viewed here.\nFor us practitioners, it is financially heartening to see the ongoing growth in the number of PCT applications being filed every year throughout the world. The reason is that each International Patent Application can eventually be converted into an Australian patent application.\nHowever, for innovative Australian companies, the view is not that rosy.\nIndeed, as can be seen on page 3 of the review, our growth was a dismal minus 0.3% in 2006. That's in stark contrast to Korea with plus 26.6% and China with plus 56.5%.\nWhen a company files an International Patent Application, it has the option, some 18 months later, to extend the application to any member of the PCT. This is already happening and is noticeable in my practice. So, by not keeping up, Australian companies are losing out on the option to carve out a piece of Intellectual Property real estate in their own country.\nAccording to a recent review released by the government, it is committed to building a strong national innovation system. I can only hope that commitment extends to rejuvenating an interest in patent applications. We are great importers of manufactured goods from countries like Korea and China with ore being perhaps our only significant export.\nLocally-sourced foreign patent applications are an excellent way of exporting our valuable assets without damage to the environment.\nLet's not fiddle while our Intellectual Property resources are wasted.\nLabels: Australian Patent News, International Patent Applications, Statistics for International Patent Applications\nFiddling?

        "raw_content": "The making of a radio show, part 3: In the studio with Debbie Duncan\nMore in this series: Part 1 (Nancy Harms), Part 2 (Maud Hixson)\nArne Fogel and Debbie Duncan listen hard\nAlthough it\u2019s late November, it might as well be spring. As we arrive at Wild Sound recording studio in northeast Minneapolis, Debbie Duncan is singing the Oscar-winning Rodgers and Hammerstein classic \u201cIt Might As Well Be Spring\u201d with so much warmth that she could melt the snow on the ground.\nWe\u2019re here at another recording session for Arne Fogel\u2019s new series for public radio station KBEM, where he hosts The Bing Shift each Saturday at 7 pm. Fogel has a long history with radio. For 12 years, he produced and hosted a series of Arne Fogel Presents programs for MPR, followed by programs for KLBB and (with co-host Connie Evingson) Singers and Standards for KBEM from 2002\u20132005.\nFogel\u2019s latest, Minnesota Voices: Certain Standards will air later this year for 13 weeks, 5 days/week. Five singers\u2014Nancy Harms, Maud Hixson, Debbie Duncan, Connie Evingson, and Fogel\u2014are each recording 13 songs from the Great American Songbook. The show will include 65 classic songs and the stories behind them.\nDebbie\u2019s voice breaks on an interval near the end of \u201cSpring,\u201d so she sings the phrase over twice, then takes a completely different approach. If something doesn\u2019t work for her, she has a hundred more choices in her pocket. She also knows what she wants from pianist Tanner Taylor. When she hears a chord she doesn\u2019t like, she asks for a do-over, Arne concurs, and Wild Sound's Matthew Zimmerman punches it in.\nOn the Rodgers and Hart ballad \u201cWhere or When,\u201d she and Tanner do two complete takes, one faster, one more laid back and swinging. The gorgeous first recording of Lerner and Loewe\u2019s \u201cI\u2019ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face\u201d turns out to be too long; the second is shorter, yet somehow more touching and wistful.\nWith Debbie, songs are all about feeling and expression, honesty and truth. If she doesn\u2019t believe it, she doesn\u2019t sing it. Rhythm and melody are flexible, malleable, open to interpretation. While some vocalists are introspective and perfectionistic, Debbie projects and takes chances\u2014whatever it takes to communicate emotion. She wants you to feel what she\u2019s feeling, and if somehow you don\u2019t, either you\u2019re not paying attention or you\u2019re dead.\nHer final song, the one she\u2019s been working up to over two days in the studio, is not officially a Great American Songbook tune, but Arne says he\u2019ll make it work; Debbie wants it in. \u201cI\u2019ve Gotta Be Me\u201d by Walter Marks was first sung by Steve Lawrence in a Broadway musical in 1968 (as the more proper \u201cI\u2019ve Got to Be Me\u201d), but it took Sammy Davis Jr. to loosen it up and make it a hit. Debbie sings an arrangement she did with bassist Gary Raynor; Tanner plays a walking bass line on the lower keys. It's simple, passionate, and convincing. The third take, fast and swinging, is the winner and a wrap.\nDebbie Duncan and Arne Fogel\nDebbie explains why the song matters to her. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of a mantra for me. All the lyrics are good. \u2018Do it now, do it righteous. Live, don\u2019t just survive.\u2019 It used to be my theme song, and when I sing it, I really mean it.\u201d Feeling and expression, honesty and truth.\nWe spend a few moments talking about songs that are hard to sing. For Debbie, it\u2019s \u201c\u2019Round Midnight.\u201d For Arne, \u201cSophisticated Lady.\u201d\nNext up: Arne.\nLabels: Arne Fogel, Debbie Duncan, Tanner Taylor",

        "raw_content": "2.1 Assessment (First Contact and Identifying Needs)\nThe Act requires the local authority to carry out an assessment, referred to as \u2018needs assessment,\u2019 where it appears an adult may have care and support needs. It also sets out what is to happen where adult or a carer refuses to have a needs or carer\u2019s assessment. It also requires the local authority to carry out an assessment (\u2018carer\u2019s assessment\u2019) where it appears a carer may have needs for support, now or in future.\nChapter 6, Assessment and Eligibility, Care and Support Statutory Guidance (Department of Health and Social Care)\nDecember 2016: This chapter was updated to reflect the revised Care and Support Statutory Guidance.

Integrated Assessments\n20.NHS Continuing Healthcare\n24. Delegating Assessments\n25. Children and Young Carers\nAssessment is one of the most important elements in the care and support system. It should consider the most relevant aspects of wellbeing to the adult being assessed, how their needs impact on those aspects of wellbeing and how care and support \u2013 or other services or resources in the local community \u2013 can help the adult to achieve the outcomes they seek. The process should be person centred and involves supporting them to have as much choice and control as possible. It is not only the gateway to care and support but a significant intervention in its own right that can help people to understand their situation and the needs they have, to reduce or delay the onset of greater needs and to access support when they require it.\nThe assessment process starts from when the local authority begins to collect information about the person, and will be an integral part of the person\u2019s journey through the care and support system as their needs change. It should not just be seen as a gateway to care and support, but should be a critical intervention in its own right, which can help people to understand their situation and the needs they have, to reduce or delay the onset of greater needs, and to access support when they require it.\nPeople may approach the local authority for an assessment, or be referred by someone else for a number of reasons. The assessment which they receive must follow the core statutory obligations, but the process should be flexible and be adapted to best fit with the person\u2019s needs, wishes and goals. The nature of the assessment will not be the same for all people and depending on the circumstances, it could range from an initial contact or screening process which helps a person with lower needs to access support in their local community, to a more intensive, ongoing process which requires the input of a number of professionals over a longer period of time.\nAssessment should help the adult to understand their strengths and capabilities and the support available to them from services, networks and community resources. The process should be flexible and adapted to fit the adult\u2019s needs, wishes and goals, ranging from an initial contact that helps someone with low level needs to access support in their local community, to an ongoing process that requires the input of a number of professionals.\nAn assessment should be appropriate and proportionate. It can come in different formats and can be carried out in various ways, including, but not limited to:\nface to face assessment between the adult and an assessor, whose professional role and qualifications may vary depending on the circumstances, but who must always be appropriately trained and have the right skills and knowledge;\nsupported self-assessment uses the same assessment materials as a face to face assessment, but where the adult completes the assessment themselves and the local authority assures itself that it is an accurate reflection of the adult\u2019s needs, for example by consulting with other relevant professionals and people who know the adult, with their consent;\nonline or telephone assessment may be used when an adult\u2019s needs are not complex or where an adult is already known to the local authority and an assessment is following a change in their needs or circumstances;\njoint assessment where relevant agencies work together to avoid the adult undergoing multiple assessments;.\ncombined assessment where an adult\u2019s assessment is combined with a carer\u2019s assessment and / or an assessment relating to a child so that interrelated needs are properly considered.\nWhere there is concern about an adult\u2019s capacity to make a decision, for example, as a result of a mental impairment, such as dementia, acquired brain injury, learning disabilities or mental health needs, a face to face assessment should be arranged. The assessment should be carried out in a way that enables the needs of those who may not be able to put them into words to be recognised. See also Mental Capacity and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards.\nAn assessment should be undertaken over an appropriate and reasonable timescale, taking into account the urgency of the adult\u2019s needs and any fluctuation in those needs. They should be given an indicative timescale for their assessment and should be kept informed throughout the assessment process.\nThe aim of the assessment is to identify what needs the adult may have and what outcomes they want to achieve to maintain or improve their wellbeing.\nIt should provide a full picture of the adult\u2019s needs so that the local authority can provide an appropriate response at the right time to meet the level of their needs. This might range from offering guidance and information to arranging for services to meet those needs. As the assessment may be the only contact the local authority has with the adult at that point in time, it is critical that the most is made of this opportunity.\nAssessment should provide a framework to identify any level of need for care and support so that consideration can be given to how to provide a proportionate response at the right time, based on the individual\u2019s needs. Prevention and early intervention are central and even if the adult has needs that are not eligible at that point in time, information and advice or other preventive services may be provided. (See also Preventing, Reducing or Delaying Needs and Eligibility). The adult\u2019s own strengths should be considered, together with any support that might be available in the community to meet their needs.\nAssessment should be characterised by ongoing engagement with the adult so that if they have eligible needs they are involved in the arrangements put in place to deliver the outcomes they want to achieve.\nThe purpose of an assessment is to:\nidentify the adult\u2019s needs and how these impact on their wellbeing and the outcomes they wish to achieve in their day to day life;\nsupport decision making about needs that are eligible for care and support from the local authority;\nunderstand how the provision of care and support may assist the adult in achieving their desired outcomes;\nestablish the total extent of needs before the local authority considers the adult\u2019s eligibility for care and support and what types of care and support can help to meet those needs. This includes looking at the impact of the adult\u2019s needs on their wellbeing and whether meeting their needs will help them achieve their desired outcomes;\nprovide the opportunity to take a holistic view of the adult\u2019s needs in the context of their wider support network so that consideration can be given to how the adult, their support network and the wider community can contribute towards meeting the outcomes the adult wants to achieve.\nAn assessment should be adult centred, involving not only the adult but also any carer that they have, and any other person / professional they might want to be involved. For example, they could ask for their GP or a district nurse to be contacted to provide information relevant to their needs.\nThe adult may be unable to request an assessment or may struggle to express their needs. In these situations supported decision making takes place, with the adult being assisted to be as involved as possible in the assessment, and a capacity assessment carried out. The requirements of the Mental Capacity Act (2005) and access to an Independent Mental Capacity Advocate apply for all those who lack capacity (see also Mental Capacity and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards).\nThe decision about whether the adult\u2019s needs are eligible needs can only be made on the basis of an assessment and cannot be made without having first carried out an assessment, unless urgent needs have to be met.\nEligibility determinations must be made on the basis of an assessment, and cannot be made without having first carried out an assessment. Once an eligibility determination has been made, and the local authority has determined whether it will meet the person\u2019s needs (whether eligible or not), it must then carry out a financial assessment if it wishes to charge the adult and confirm that the adult if ordinarily resident in the authority. The eligibility determination cannot take place until an assessment has been completed, except in cases where the local authority is meeting urgent needs. The financial assessment may in practice run parallel to the needs assessment, but it must never influence an assessment of needs. Local authorities must inform individuals that a financial assessment will determine whether or not they pay towards their care and support, but this must have no bearing on the assessment process itself.\nThroughout the Process Flowchart:\nPlease note: if you are viewing this on a small screen you can click the image below to open a full size version. This diagram is taken from the Care and Support Statutory Guidance (2016; paragraph 6.12)\nAn assessment is undertaken for any adult who appears to need care and support, regardless of whether or not they are thought to have eligible needs (see also Eligibility) or of their financial situation.\nWherever an adult expresses a need, or any challenges and difficulties they face because of their condition/s, the assessment should ensure that the impact on their day to day life has been established. The assessment must also consider whether the adult\u2019s needs impact upon their wellbeing beyond the ways identified by them. For example where someone expresses a need arising from their physical condition and mobility, the impact of this on the adult\u2019s desired outcomes is established, as well as considering whether their need/s have further consequences for their wider wellbeing such as the impact they have on their health or the suitability of their living accommodation.\nDuring an assessment, all of the adult\u2019s care and support needs should be considered, regardless of any support being provided by a carer.\nWhere the adult has a carer, information on the care that they provide should be recorded in the assessment. This should not influence the decision about whether the adult has eligible needs.\nAfter the decision about eligibility has been made, if the needs are going to be met the care provided by a carer can be taken into account during the care and support planning stage (see Care and Support Planning).\nNeeds that are being met by a carer who is willing and able to do so do not have to be met by the local authority, but when that is the case it should be recorded. This ensures the adult\u2019s entire needs are identified and if the carer feels unable or unwilling to carry out some or all of the caring they were previously providing, an appropriate response can be made by the local authority.\nThe local authority must always ensure that an expert is involved in the assessment of adults who are deafblind, including where a deafblind person is carrying out a supported self-assessment jointly with the authority. People are regarded as deafblind \u2018if their combined sight and hearing impairment causes difficulties with communication, access to information and mobility. This includes people with a progressive sight and hearing loss\u2019 (Think Dual Sensory, Department of Health 1995).\nDuring an assessment if there is the appearance of both sensory impairments, even if when taken separately each sensory impairment appears relatively mild, the assessor must consider whether the person is deafblind as defined above. If a person is deafblind, this must trigger a specialist assessment. This specialist assessment must be carried out by an assessor or team that has training of at least QCF or OCN level 3, or above where the person has higher or more complex needs.\nTraining and expertise should in particular include: communication, one to one human contact, social interaction and emotional wellbeing, support with mobility, assistive technology and rehabilitation. The type and degree of specialism required should be judged on a case by case basis, according to the extent of the person\u2019s condition and their communication needs. Local authorities should also recognise that deafblindness is a dual sensory condition which requires a knowledge and understanding of the two respective conditions in unison, which cannot be replicated by taking an individual approach to both senses.\nThe combined loss of sight and hearing can have a significant impact upon the individual even where they are not profoundly deaf and totally blind, as it is the impact of one impairment upon the other which causes difficulties. Deafblindness can have significant impact on the adult\u2019s independence and their ability to achieve their desired outcomes. In particular deafblindness may have impact on the adult\u2019s:\nautonomy and ability to maintain choice and control;\nhealth and safety and daily routine;\ninvolvement in education, work, family and social life.\nLocal authorities should recognise that adults may not define themselves as deafblind. Instead they may describe their vision and hearing loss in terms which indicate that they have significant difficulty in their day to day lives. The assessment must therefore take the initiative to establish maximum possible communication with the adult to ensure that individuals are as fully engaged as possible and have the opportunity to express their wishes and desired outcomes. This is particularly important where the person is carrying out a supported self-assessment jointly with the local authority. The person ensuring that the self-assessment is a complete and accurate reflection of needs must have specific training and expertise that will enable maximum possible communication and an accurate and complete assessment.\nWhilst the person carrying out the assessment must have suitable training and expertise, it may not be possible for them to carry out the assessment without an interpreter, for instance where the adult uses sign language. Therefore, where necessary a qualified interpreter with training appropriate for the deafblind adult\u2019s communication should be used. It is not normally appropriate to use a family member or carer as an interpreter, though sometimes this is appropriate, for instance where the adult\u2019s communication is idiosyncratic or personal to them and would only be understood by those close to them. This should only take place where the adult agrees or \u2013 if they lack capacity \u2013 where it is in their best interests.\nThe assessment should take into account both the current and future needs of the person being assessed, particularly where the adult\u2019s deafblindness is at risk of deteriorating. In such cases the adult may benefit from learning alternative forms of communication before their condition has deteriorated to a point where their current or preferred form of communication is no longer suitable.\nWhere someone provides or intends to provide care for an adult and it appears that they may have any level of need for support, a carer\u2019s assessment should be carried out, unless the person provides care under contract (for example, is employed) or as part of voluntary work when they should not be normally regarded as a carer and so the local authority would not be required to carry out an assessment.\nIf the person providing care, either under contract or through voluntary work, also provides care for the same adult outside those arrangements, consideration must be given to carrying out a carer\u2019s assessment for that part of the care they are not providing under contract or on a voluntary basis.\nIn some cases where a person is providing care as voluntary work or under contract, the nature of the relationship with the adult cared for may be such that they are considered as a carer, in which case the local authority has the power to carry out an assessment if it judges there is a reason to do so.\nTo allow the local authority to make a realistic evaluation of the carer present and future needs a carers assessment should:\nestablish the carer\u2019s needs for support and whether the caring role is sustainable, taking into account the practical and emotional support a carer provides at present;\nestablish a carer\u2019s future needs for support in the longer term, including whether the carer is, and will continue to be, able and willing to provide care;\nprovide support in to the carer in recognising their own needs and in considering whether the care they provide is sustainable;\nconsider the outcomes that the carer wants to achieve in their daily life, their activities beyond their caring responsibilities and the impact of caring upon those activities, including the impact of caring responsibilities on a carer\u2019s desire and ability to work and to participate in education, training or recreation or simply to have time to themselves. The impact should be considered in the immediate / short term and long term cumulative sense.\nIt may be appropriate for a carer\u2019s views to be sought separately from the needs assessment of the adult they care for so that they can express their views freely.\nThe Children and Families Act 2014 introduced parent carer needs assessments. The local authority must assess whether a parent carer in their area has needs for support (and, if so, what those needs are) upon request by the parent carer, or where it appears to the local authority that there may be a need for support.\nAn adult with possible care and support needs or a carer may choose to refuse to have an assessment. The person may choose not to have an assessment because they do not feel that they need care or they may not want local authority support. In such circumstances local authorities are not required to carry out an assessment.\nHowever, where the local authority identifies that an adult lacks mental capacity and that carrying out a needs assessment would be in the adult\u2019s best interests, the local authority is required to do so. The same applies where the local authorities identifies that an adult is experiencing, or at risk of abuse or neglect. Where the adult who is or is at risk of abuse or neglect has capacity and is still refusing an assessment, local authorities must undertake an assessment so far as possible and document this. They should continue to keep in contact with the adult and carry out an assessment if the adult changes their mind, and asks them to do so.\nIn instances where an individual has refused a needs or carer\u2019s assessment but at a later time requests that an assessment is carried out, the local authority must do so.\nWhere an individual has previously refused an assessment and the local authority establishes that the adult or carer\u2019s needs or circumstances have changed, the local authority must consider whether it is required to offer an assessment, unless the person continues to refuse.\nGetting the initial response right can save time and costs on assessment later. Some local authorities have found that putting in place a single access point for all new requests and people currently receiving care can speed up and simplify the process for people approaching the authority, and can also free up time for professional staff to focus on more complex cases.\nLocal authorities should not, however, remove people from the process too early. Early or targeted interventions such as universal services, a period of reablement and providing equipment or minor household adaptions can delay an adult\u2019s needs from progressing. The first contact with the authority which triggers the requirement to assess, may lead to a pause in the assessment process to allow such interventions to take place and for any benefit to the adult to be determined. Local authorities must ensure that their staff are sufficiently trained and equipped to make the appropriate judgements needed to steer individuals seeking support towards information and advice, preventative services or a more detailed care and support assessment, or all of these. They must also be able to identify a person who may lack mental capacity and act accordingly.\nThe assessment process should start from when information begins to be collected about the adult. As soon as possible after this first contact full information about the assessment process should be given, including detail of what to expect during the assessment process (such as the format and timescale of assessment, complaints processes (see Customer Complaints) and possible access to independent advocacy (see Independent Advocacy). This allows the adult to be as involved in the process as possible. Information must be in an accessible format for those with social requirements, for example Braille is available for people with partial sightedness or who are blind (see also Interpreting, Signing and Communication Needs).\nFrom this stage onwards, consideration should be given to whether the individual is likely to have substantial difficulty in being involved in the assessment process and, if so, the possibility independent advocacy should be introduced. Also considered is whether the adult may have difficulty communicating (for example those with Autistic Spectrum Disorder or Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities), and whether a specialist or interpreter may be needed to support communication. (For information on reasonable adjustments see Equalities Act 2010.)\nThere should be a single access point for all new requests for assessment and for people who are already receiving care and support, to ensure the process of approaching the local authority is as straightforward as possible.\nThe outcome of first contact may be:\nearly or targeted interventions such as universal services;\na period of reablement provision of equipment or minor household adaptions to delay an adult\u2019s needs from progressing (see also Reablement Service);\ndirecting people towards information and advice (see Information and Advice);\npreventive services (see also Preventing, Reducing or Delaying Needs);\na more detailed care and support assessment (see Care and Support Planning);\nidentifying those who lack mental capacity;\nStaff who are involved in this first contact must have the appropriate training and should have the benefit of access to professional support from social workers, occupational therapists and other relevant experts as appropriate, to support the identification of any underlying conditions or to ensure that complex needs are identified early and that people are signposted appropriately.\nIf the adult has urgent needs for care and support these can be met without completing an assessment, regardless of the adult\u2019s ordinary residence (see Ordinary Residence).\nIn these circumstances the local authority should provide an immediate response to meet the adult\u2019s care and support needs. For example, where someone\u2019s condition deteriorates rapidly or they have an accident, they will need a swift response to ensure their needs are met by the local authority or by NHS Continuing Health Care Fast Track Pathway Tool (Department of Health, 2012).\nFollowing this initial response, the adult is informed that a more detailed needs assessment will follow.\nOnce urgent needs have been met, the adult\u2019s ordinary residence and finances can be considered.\nPutting the person at the heart of the assessment process is crucial to understanding the person\u2019s needs, outcomes and wellbeing, and delivering better care and support. The local authority must involve the person being assessed in the process as they are best placed to judge their own wellbeing. In the case of an adult with care and support needs, the local authority must also involve any carer the person has (which may be more than one carer), and in all cases the authority must also involve any other person requested. The local authority should have processes in place, and suitably trained staff, to ensure the involvement of these parties, so that their perspective and experience supports a better understanding of the needs, outcomes and wellbeing (see also Promoting Wellbeing).\nIf someone is unable to engage effectively in the assessment process independently, somebody else should be sought who can assist them in engaging with the process and help them to articulate their needs and preferred outcomes as early as possible. This may include some people with mental impairments who nevertheless have capacity to engage in the assessment. They may require assistance in the form of an assessment tailored to their circumstances, their needs and their ability to engage. They should be supported in understanding the assessment process and assisted to make decisions wherever possible.\nWhere there is concern about an adult\u2019s capacity to make a specific decision, for example as a result of a mental impairment such as dementia, acquired brain injury or learning disabilities, an assessment of capacity is carried out under the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (see also Mental Capacity and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards). Those who may lack capacity are given extra support to identify and communicate their needs and make decisions and may need an Independent Mental Capacity Advocate. The more serious the needs, the more support people may need to identify their impact and the consequences. Professionally qualified staff such as social workers, can advise and support assessors when they are carrying out an assessment with a person who may lack capacity.\nSee also Independent Advocacy.\nAt the point of first contact, request or referral (including self-referral), the ability of the adult to be involved in their assessment should be ascertained and consideration given to whether they would experience substantial difficulty in any of these four areas:\nunderstanding the information provided;\nretaining the information;\nusing or weighing up the information as part of the process of being involved;\ncommunicating their views, wishes or feelings.\nWhen the adult has substantial difficulty in any of these areas, they need assistance. Someone appropriate and independent should support and represent the adult for the purpose of facilitating their involvement. This should be done as early as possible in the assessment process so the adult\u2019s involvement can be supported throughout all stages of the process.\nWhere there is a family member or friend who is willing and able to facilitate the adult\u2019s involvement effectively and who is acceptable to the adult and considered to be appropriate, they may be asked to support the adult in the assessment process.\nWhere there is no one thought appropriate for this role \u2013 either because there is no family member or friend willing and available or if the adult does not want them to be a part of the assessment \u2013 an independent advocate must be appointed.\nLocal authorities must ensure that any adult with an appearance of care and support needs, and any carer with an appearance of need for support, receives a proportionate assessment which identifies their level of needs. Where appropriate, an assessment may be carried out over the phone or online. In adopting such approaches, local authorities should consider whether the proposed means of carrying out the assessment poses any challenges or risks for certain groups, particularly when assuring itself that it has fulfilled its duties around safeguarding, independent advocacy and assessing mental capacity. Where there is concern about a person\u2019s capacity to make a decision, for example as a result of a mental impairment such as those with dementia, acquired brain injury, learning disabilities or mental health needs, a face to face assessment should be arranged. Local authorities have a duty of care to carry out an assessment in a way that enables them to recognise the needs of those who may not be able to put these into words. Local authorities must ensure that assessors have the skills, knowledge and competence to carry out the assessment in question, and this applies to all assessments regardless of the format they take.\nAn assessment should be carried out over an appropriate and reasonable timescale taking into account the urgency of needs and a consideration of any fluctuation in those needs. Local authorities should inform the individual of an indicative timescale over which their assessment will be conducted and keep the person informed throughout the assessment process.\nThe local authority may decide to use an assessment tool to help collect information about the adult or carer and details of their wishes and feeling and their desired outcomes and needs. Where a local authority has decided that a person does not need a more detailed assessment, it should consider which elements of the assessment tool it should use and which are not necessary. When carrying out a proportionate assessment the assessor should continue to look for the appearance of further needs which may be the result of an underlying condition. Where the assessor believes that the person\u2019s presenting needs may be as a result of or a part of wider needs then the local authority should undertake a more detailed assessment and refer the person to other services such as housing or the NHS if necessary. For example, the Brain Injury Rehabilitation Trust has produced the Brain Injury Needs Indicator, which is a tool that can be used as part of the assessment to help identify deficits of people with a suspected or diagnosed acquired brain injury.\nThe assessment should be adult centred throughout. The extent to which the adult being assessed wishes to be involved in the assessment should be ascertained and their wishes are met as far as it is practicable do so, as they are best placed to understand the impact of their condition(s) on their outcomes and wellbeing.\nAssessment should be a collaborative, transparent and understandable process that enables an adult to:\ndevelop an understanding of the assessment process;\ndevelop an understanding of the implications of the assessment process for their condition/s and situation;\nunderstand their own needs, the outcomes they want to achieve and the impact of their needs on their wellbeing so that they engage effectively with the assessment process;\nbegin to identify the options that are available to them to achieve those outcomes and to support their independence and wellbeing;\nTo help someone to prepare for an assessment, the list of areas to be covered in the assessment should be provided in advance in an accessible format so that they can think about what their needs are and the outcomes they want to achieve. Any difficulty in communicating, whether as a result of a disability or because English is not the adult\u2019s first language, should be addressed and a specialist worker or interpreter used where needed (see Interpreting, Signing and Communication Needs).\nConsideration should be given to the impact of the assessment process itself on the adult\u2019s condition/s. They may feel uncertain and worried about what an assessment involves and may find the process itself strenuous. The preferences of the adult with regard to the timing, location and medium of the assessment should be taken into account.\nThe assessment should be designed to reflect the wishes of the adult being assessed, taking into account their presenting needs and their circumstances. An assessment process that suits one adult may not be as effective for another. In order to maintain an adult centred approach, assessments should be flexible and adapted to each individual adult.\nIn carrying out a proportionate assessment, account should be taken of:\nThe adult\u2019s wishes and preferences and desired outcomes. For example, an individual who pays for their own care may wish to receive support from the local authority with accessing a particular service, but may not want the same interaction with the authority as someone who wants greater support;\nThe severity and overall extent of the adult\u2019s needs. For example, an individual with more complex needs requires a more detailed assessment, potentially involving a number of professionals. An adult with lower needs may require a less intensive approach;\nThe potential fluctuation of an adult\u2019s needs. For example, where an adult\u2019s needs fluctuate over time, the assessment carried out at a particular moment may take into account the adult\u2019s history to get a complete picture of the adult\u2019s needs.\nWhen an adult does not need a more detailed assessment consideration should be given to which elements of the assessment should be used and which are not necessary. When carrying out a proportionate assessment the assessor should continue to look for the appearance of further needs which may be the result of an underlying condition. Where the assessor believes the adult\u2019s presenting needs may be as a result of or a part of wider needs, a more detailed assessment should be undertaken and the adult should be referred to other services such as housing or the NHS, if necessary.\nA supported self-assessment is an assessment carried out jointly by the adult with the local authority. It places the adult in control of the assessment process to the point where they complete their assessment form. A supported self-assessment is always offered if the adult is able, willing and has capacity to undertake it.\nWhilst the adult fills in the assessment form, the duty to assess the adult\u2019s needs \u2013 and in doing so ensure that they are accurate and complete \u2013 remains with the local authority.\nIf an adult or carer is willing, and has the mental capacity to undertake it, a supported self-assessment can be offered.\nIf the adult does not wish to self-assess, the local authority undertakes the assessment.\nIn order to support the adult in carrying out a supported self-assessment, any relevant information the local authority has \u2013 either about the adult themselves or, for a carer\u2019s self-assessment, about the individual they care for \u2013 should be given to them, so the adult undertaking the assessment has a full picture of their care and support history and is equipped with the same information an assessor would have when undertaking an assessment.\nBefore sharing any information, the adult\u2019s consent to that information being shared should be obtained. If the adult lacks capacity, information should only be shared where the local authority is satisfied that doing so is in the adult\u2019s best interests. In the case of a young carer, consideration is given to whether it is appropriate to share the information about the adult the young carer cares for (see also Transition to Adult Care and Support).\nOnce the adult has completed the assessment, the local authority has to be assured that it is an accurate and complete reflection of the adult\u2019s needs, desired outcomes and the impact of their needs on their wellbeing. The process of a supported self-assessment should begin with the first contact and is only complete when this assurance has been secured.\nUntil the assurance process is completed, the local authority will not have discharged its duty.\nWhere the adult carrying out a supported self-assessment jointly with the local authority requires a specialist, for example, someone who is deafblind, the professional leading this assurance process should be seen as the assessor and must have specific training and expertise relating to the adult\u2019s needs.\nAssuring that a self-assessment is comprehensive does not mean repeating the full assessment process again. In assuring self-assessments it may be useful to seek the views of those who are in regular contact with the adult self-assessing, such as their carer/s or other appropriate people from their support network, and any professional involved in providing care or support, such as a housing support officer, a GP, a treating clinician, a district nurse, prison staff or a rehabilitation officer. Before doing this, the adult\u2019s consent is sought. This may be helpful in building an understanding of the individual\u2019s desired outcomes, needs and their impact on their wellbeing.\nThe adult should be asked to complete the same assessment questionnaire that the local authority uses in their needs or carers\u2019 assessments, which assesses the adult\u2019s needs, their outcomes, and the impact of their needs on their wellbeing. When supporting and assuring an adult\u2019s self-assessment, other considerations should be taken into account, such as those around independent advocacy, and if at any point there is a suspicion that the adult is experiencing, or is at risk of, abuse or neglect, a safeguarding enquiry is begun (see Adult Safeguarding).\nBefore offering a supported self-assessment the adult\u2019s capacity to assess and reflect on their own needs fully should be ascertained. The adult\u2019s mental capacity is established in accordance with the Mental Capacity Act 2005). If it is considered that an adult may lack capacity to understand and carry out a self-assessment, a capacity assessment should be undertaken. If this shows that the adult lacks the capacity to carry out a self-assessment, a self-assessment should not be offered.\nWhere it has been established the adult has capacity to undertake a supported self-assessment but experiences substantial difficulty in understanding, retaining and using the relevant information in relation to their self-assessment, they may wish to involve their carer or any other member of their family or support network in their self-assessment.\nWhere the adult does not have the support they require from a carer or another member of their family or support network who is willing and able to facilitate the adult\u2019s involvement effectively and who is acceptable to the individual and judged to be appropriate by the local authority, an independent advocate must be introduced to assist them in their self-assessment.\nWhere local authorities have established that the adult has capacity to undertake a self-assessment but experiences substantial difficulty in understanding, retaining and using the relevant information in relation to their self-assessment, they may wish to involve their carer or any other member of their family or support network in their self-assessment. Where the adult does not have the support required from a carer or family member who is willing and able to facilitate the person\u2019s involvement effectively and who is acceptable to the individual and judged appropriate by the local authority, the local authority must provide an independent advocate to assist them in their self-assessment. When a person who would otherwise receive a specialist assessment (for example, someone who is deafblind) chooses to undertake a self-assessment, the local authority must involve a person who has specific training and expertise when assuring that the person\u2019s assessment taken as a whole reflects the overall needs of the individual concerned.\nOnce the supported self-assessment is considered to have accurately captured the adult\u2019s needs, the local authority should decide whether the needs identified in it are eligible needs (see Eligibility). Where appropriate, this may include taking into account the adult\u2019s own view.\nAlthough the local authority and the adult should work jointly to ascertain needs and eligibility in the process of a supported self-assessment, the final decision regarding eligibility rests with the local authority.\nIn all cases, the adult should be informed of the decision about their eligibility and why the local authority has reached that decision. The decision should set out the needs that are eligible and consideration should be given as to how these might be met.\nWhere the adult has needs that are not eligible, advice and information must be provided on what services are available in the community that can support the adult in meeting those needs (see also Information and Advice).\nIf it appears that the adult is experiencing, or at risk of, abuse or neglect it is important that the local authority acts swiftly and put in place an effective response.\nA safeguarding enquiry should be undertaken and a decision made with the adult about what action, if any, is necessary and by whom.\nWhen carrying out an assessment the local authority must consider the impact of the persons needs on their wellbeing (see also Promoting Wellbeing).\nThe decision to carry out a safeguarding enquiry does not depend on an adult having eligible needs but should be made whenever there is reasonable cause to think the adult is experiencing, or is at risk of, abuse or neglect. Where this is the case, whatever enquiries are necessary should be carried out in order to decide whether any further action is necessary. In some cases, safeguarding enquiries may result in the provision of care and support (see Care and Support Planning), or the provision of preventive services (see Preventing, Reducing or Delaying Needs) or information and advice (see Information and Advice). In the majority of cases the response will involve other agencies, for example, a safeguarding enquiry may result in referrals to the police, a change of accommodation, or action by the Care Quality Commission.\nWhere the adult has care and support needs, an assessment should continue, and a decision should be made about whether they have eligible needs and, if so, how these will be met. The assessment should run parallel to the safeguarding enquiry and the enquiry should not disrupt the assessment process or the meeting of eligible needs.\nAn adult\u2019s needs may fluctuate, at the time of the assessment therefore they may not be indicative of their needs more generally. Consideration should be given as to whether someone\u2019s current level of need is likely to fluctuate and what their ongoing needs for care and support are likely to be. This is the case both for short term fluctuations, which may be over the course of the day, and longer term changes in the level of the adult\u2019s needs. The assessment also considers an adult\u2019s wider care and support needs. This may include types of care and support the individual has received in the past and their general medical history, which may be indicative of their current care and support needs. Account should also be taken of what fluctuations in need can be reasonably expected based on the experience of others with a similar condition/s. The benefit of adopting this comprehensive approach to assessment is the consideration of an individual\u2019s wider wellbeing may allow types of care and support or information and advice to be provided that delay or prevent the development of further needs in the future.\nAssessment is a key element in prevention. During the assessment needs that could be reduced, or where escalation could be delayed, can be identified and people\u2019s wellbeing may be improved by providing:\nspecific preventive services (see also Preventing, Reducing or Delaying Needs);\ninformation and advice (see also Information and Advice) on other universal services available locally;\nearly intervention services which can prevent or delay the adult\u2019s needs from progressing. This can include directing people to services such as community support groups that make people feel supported and give them the opportunity to participate in their local community. It may also include helping the adult to access services provided universally by the local authority;\nhelp for people to understand other types of support available to them, such as from within their own support networks or by promoting access to employment, education or training,\nSuch interventions at an early stage can help to sustain the independence and wellbeing of people. Where the adult may benefit from such types of support, they should be supported to access them.\nIn parallel with assessing a person\u2019s needs, local authorities must consider the benefits of approaches which delay or prevent the development of needs in individuals. This applies to both people with current needs that may be reduced or met through available universal services in the community, and those without needs who may otherwise require care and support in the future. This could include directing people to services such as community support groups which ensure that people feel supported, including an ability to participate in their local community. It may also include helping the person to access services which the local authority provides as part of its universal offer on prevention. Local authorities can also support the person in understanding other types of support available to them, such as within their own support networks, for example to seek to promote access to appropriate employment, education or training, which can be an effective way of maintaining independence. Such interventions at an early stage will help to sustain the independence and wellbeing of people (see also Preventing, Reducing or Delaying Needs and Information and Advice).\nWhere the local authority judges that the person may benefit from such types of support, it should take steps to support the person to access those services. The local authority may \u2018pause\u2019 the assessment process to allow time for the benefits of such activities to be realised, so that the final assessment of need (and determination of eligibility) is based on the remaining needs which have not been met through such interventions. For example, if the local authority believes that a person may benefit from a short term reablement service which is available locally, it may put that in place and complete the assessment following the provision of that service.\nAssessments must consider what else, other than the provision of care and support, might assist the adult in meeting the outcomes they want to achieve.\nIn considering what else might help, someone\u2019s strengths and capabilities and the support available from their wider support network or within the community should be included.\nAny suggestion that support could be available from family and friends should be considered in the light of their appropriateness, willingness and ability to provide any additional support and the impact on them of doing so.\nIt should also have the agreement of the adult in question.\nLocal authorities might also consider the ways a person\u2019s cultural and spiritual networks can support them in meeting needs and building strengths, and explore this with the person. Any suggestion that support could be available from family and friends should be considered in light of their appropriateness, willingness and ability to provide any additional support and the impact on them of doing so. It must also be based on the agreement of the adult or carer in question.\nSee also Assessment Case Studies.\nAssessment should adopt a whole family approach to ensure a holistic view is taken of the adult\u2019s needs and identify how the adult\u2019s needs for care and support impact on family members or others in their support network. This requires the local authority to identify the impact of the person\u2019s needs on family members or anyone who may be part of the adult\u2019s wider network of care and support. In considering the impact of the adult\u2019s needs on those around them, consideration must be given as to whether or not the provision of information and advice would be beneficial to those people who are identified (see Information and Advice). For example, this may include signposting to any support services in the local community.\nAny children who are involved in providing care should be identified. Being aware that a child is carrying out a caring role may emerge through the assessment of the adult needing care or their carer, or from information from other family members or a child\u2019s school. Identification of a young carer in the family must result in an offer of a needs assessment for the adult requiring care and support and, where appropriate, the young carer should be referred for a young carer\u2019s assessment (see Section 3, Identifying Young People and Young Carers who are not already receiving Children\u2019s Services, Transition to Adult Care and Support) or a needs assessment under the Children Act 1989. Adults\u2019 and children\u2019s services should work together to ensure the assessment is effective, for example, by sharing expertise and linking processes. If it appears that a child is involved in providing care the following should be considered:\nthe impact of the adult\u2019s needs on the young carer\u2019s wellbeing, welfare, education and development;\nwhether any of the caring responsibilities the young carer is undertaking are inappropriate.\nThe assessment must also take into account the parenting responsibilities of the adult, as well as the impact of the adult\u2019s needs for care and support on the young carer. Consideration should also be given as to how supporting the adult with needs for care and support can prevent the young carer from undertaking excessive or inappropriate care and support responsibilities. A young carer becomes vulnerable when their caring role risks impacting on their emotional or physical wellbeing or their prospects in education and life generally. This might include:\npreventing the young carer from accessing education, for example because the adult\u2019s needs for care and support result in the young carer\u2019s regular absence from school or impacts upon their learning;\npreventing the young carer from building relationships and friendships;\nimpacting upon any other aspect of the young carer\u2019s wellbeing.\nInappropriate caring responsibilities are anything that is likely to have an impact on the child\u2019s health, wellbeing or education or which can be considered unsuitable in light of the child\u2019s circumstances and may include:\nbathing and toileting an adult;\ncarrying out strenuous physical tasks such as lifting;\nemotional support to the adult.\nWhen deciding whether a child has inappropriate caring responsibilities, the child\u2019s own view should be taken into account, wherever possible.\nAn assessment of an adult needing care and support or of a carer can be combined with any other assessment being carried out either for that adult or another adult, where both the individual and carer agree and the consent condition is met in relation to a child. This avoids undertaking two separate assessments when they are intrinsically linked. If either of the individuals concerned does not agree to a combined assessment, the assessments should be carried out separately.\nPeople may have needs that are met by various bodies. A holistic approach to assessment that aims to bring together all of the adult\u2019s needs may need the input of different professionals such as adult care and support, children\u2019s services, housing, the voluntary sector, relevant professionals in the criminal justice system, health or mental health professionals.\nA needs or carer\u2019s assessment can be carried out jointly by the local authority with another body carrying out any other assessment in relation to the adult concerned, provided that the adult agrees.\nAssessment processes may be integrated or aligned in order to fit better around the needs of the adult. An integrated approach may involve working together with relevant professionals on a single assessment. It may also include putting processes in place to ensure that the adult is referred for other assessments such as an assessment for after-care needs under the Mental Health Act 1983.\nA local authority may carry out a needs or carer\u2019s assessment jointly with another body carrying out any other assessment in relation to the person concerned, provided that person agrees. In doing so, the authority may integrate or align assessment processes in order to better fit around the needs of the individual. An integrated approach may involve working together with relevant professionals on a single assessment. It may also include putting processes in place to ensure that the person is referred for other assessments such as an assessment for aftercare needs under the Mental Health Act 1983. In some settings, for example in prisons, local authorities should engage relevant professionals early to ensure assessors are prepared for carrying out an assessment in that environment.\nWhere more than one agency is assessing an adult, they should work closely together to prevent the adult having to undergo a number of assessments at different times, which can be distressing and confusing. Where an adult has health and care and support needs, the local authority and the NHS should work together effectively to deliver a high quality coordinated assessment. To achieve this, the local authority should shape the process around the adult, involving the adult and considering their experience when coordinating an integrated assessment.\nWhere a person has both health and care and support needs, local authorities and the NHS should work together effectively to deliver a high quality, coordinated assessment. To achieve this, local authorities should:\nshape the process around the person, involving the person and considering their experience when coordinating an integrated assessment;\nwork with other professionals to ensure the person\u2019s health and care services are aligned. This will require flexibility of systems where possible, for example when sharing information. It will also be strengthened by a culture of common values and objectives at frontline level; joint visits can be helpful here.\nVarious care and support plans can be linked together to set out a single, shared care pathway, for example when following the Care Programme Approach for people with a severe mental disorder who need multi-agency support or intensive intervention, under the direction of a named care coordinator (see chapter 34 of the revised Code of Practice Mental Health Act 1983). A multi-agency approach is particularly important where people are enrolled on the Proactive Care Programme. The care and support assessment can be undertaken jointly with any other assessment and the other assessment can be undertaken on behalf of the other body by the local authority, where this is agreed. Where an assessment involves a body from outside the local authority, the local authority should provide any resources or facilities required to carry out the assessment. Sharing resources may include the provision of facilities or information relating to the adult being assessed.\nWhere it appears that an adult may be eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare (NHS CHC) the local authority should notify the relevant Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). NHS CHC is ongoing care that is arranged and funded solely by the NHS where the adult has been found to have a \u2018primary health need\u2019, as set out in The National Framework for NHS Continuing Healthcare and NHS-funded Nursing Care (2012 revised). CHC is provided to people aged 18 or over to meet needs that have arisen as a result of disability, accident or illness. Eligibility for NHS CHC places no limits on the settings in which the support can be offered or on the type of service delivery.\nWhilst the local authority has a duty to carry out an assessment where an adult has an appearance of needs and meets their eligible needs, it cannot arrange services that are the responsibility of the NHS, for example care provided by registered nurses and services that the NHS has to provide because the individual is eligible for CHC.\nThe local authority may, however, provide or arrange healthcare services where they are incidental or ancillary to doing something else to meet needs for care and support and the service or facility in question is of a nature that a local authority could be expected to provide. Ultimate responsibility for arranging and monitoring the services required to meet the needs of those who qualify for NHS CHC rests with the NHS.\nPeople may require care and support provided by their local authority and / or services arranged by CCGs. Local authorities and CCGs ensure the assessment of eligibility for care and support and CHC respectively take place in a timely and consistent manner. If, following an assessment for NHS CHC, an adult is not found to be eligible for CHC, the NHS may still have a responsibility to contribute to that adult\u2019s health needs, either by directly commissioning services or by part funding the package of care and support. Where a package of care and support is commissioned or funded by both a local authority and a CCG, this is known as a \u2018joint package\u2019 of care. A joint package of care could include NHS funded nursing care and other NHS services that are beyond the powers of a local authority to meet. The joint package could also involve the CCG and the local authority both contributing to the cost of the care package or the CCG commissioning part of the package. Joint packages of care may be provided in a nursing or care home or in an adult\u2019s own home and could be by way of joint personal budget.\nThere must be a local disputes resolution process to resolve cases where there is a dispute between the local authority and the CGC about eligibility for NHS CHC, about the apportionment of funding in joint funded care and support packages and about the operation of refunds guidance. Disputes should not delay the provision of the care and support package and the disputes protocol makes clear how funding is provided pending resolution of the dispute and arrangements for reimbursement to the agencies involved once the dispute is resolved. Where disputes relate to local authorities and CCGs in different geographical areas, the disputes resolution process of the responsible CCG should normally be used.\nLocal authorities and CCGs in each local area must agree a local disputes resolution process to resolve cases where there is a dispute between them about eligibility for NHS CHC, about the apportionment of funding in joint funded care and support packages, or about the operation of refunds guidance. Disputes should not delay the provision of the care package, and the protocol should make clear how funding will be provided pending resolution of the dispute. Where disputes relate to local authorities and CCGs in different geographical areas, the disputes resolution process of the responsible CCG should normally be used in order to ensure resolution in a robust and timely manner. This should include agreement on how funding will be provided during the dispute, and arrangements for reimbursement to the agencies involved once the dispute is resolved.\nAssessments can be carried out by a range of professionals including social workers, occupational therapists and rehabilitation officers. Registered social workers and occupational therapists are two of the key professions in adult care and support. Adults who need care, carers and assessors should have access to social workers and occupational therapists.\nIt is essential the assessment is carried out to the highest quality in identifying the adult\u2019s needs, outcomes and how these impact on their wellbeing, considering the adult\u2019s strengths and capabilities and what universal services might help the adult improve their wellbeing.\nThe local authority must ensure its staff have the skills, knowledge and competence to undertake assessments and that this is maintained. This applies whichever type of assessment is carried out, and means ensuring assessors undergo regular up to date training on an ongoing basis. The training should be appropriate to the assessment, both the format of assessment and the condition/s and circumstances of the adult being assessed. This training should be maintained throughout their career. As part of maintaining their registration, social workers and occupational therapists are required to evidence their Continuing Professional Development.\nLocal authorities must ensure that assessors are appropriately trained and competent whenever they carry out an assessment. This means ensuring that assessors undergo regular, up to date training on an ongoing basis. The training must be appropriate to the assessment, both the format of assessment and the condition/s and circumstances of the person being assessed. They must also have the skills and knowledge to carry out an assessment of needs that relate to a specific condition or circumstances requiring expert insight, for example when assessing an individual who has autism, learning disabilities, mental health needs or dementia. This training must be maintained throughout their career. As part of maintaining their registration, social workers and occupational therapists are required to evidence their Continuing Professional Development.\nWhen assessing particularly complex or multiple needs, an assessor may require the support of an expert to carry out the assessment, to ensure that the adult\u2019s needs are fully captured. Whether additional relevant expertise is required should be decided on a case by case basis, taking into account the nature of the needs of the individual and the skills of those carrying out the assessment. The local authority must ensure that the adult is involved as far as possible, for example by providing an interpreter where an adult has a particular condition affecting communication, such as autism, blindness or deafness.\nWhere the assessor does not have the necessary knowledge of a particular condition or circumstance, they should consult someone who has relevant expertise. This is to ensure the assessor can ask the right questions relating to the condition and interpret these appropriately in order to identify underlying needs. A person with relevant expertise can be considered as somebody who, either through training or experience, has acquired knowledge or skill of the particular condition or circumstance. Such a person may be a doctor or health professional or an expert from the voluntary sector but an expert may be found within the local authority.\nThere is government guidance for certain groups of adults that covers their assessment for care and support. Two specific areas are for people who are deafblind and people with autism. Think Autism (2014), the update to Fulfilling and Rewarding Lives, the Strategy for Adults with Autism in England (2010), sets out that the local authority should:\nmake basic autism training available for all staff working in health and social care;\ndevelop or provide specialist training for those in roles that have a direct impact on access to services for adults with autism;\ninclude autism awareness training within general equality and diversity training programmes across public services.\nThe Care Act 2014 strengthens this guidance in relation to assessors having specialised training to assess an adult with autism. The Act places a legal requirement on the local authority that all assessors must have the skills, knowledge and competence to carry out the assessment in question. Where an assessor does not have experience in a particular condition, such as autism, learning disabilities, mental health needs or other conditions, they must consult someone with relevant experience. This is so that the adult being assessed is involved throughout the process and their needs, outcomes and the impact of their needs on their wellbeing are all accurately identified.\nFollowing an assessment, an adult should be given a record of their needs assessment or their carer\u2019s assessment. A copy should be shared with anybody else the individual asks for a copy to be shared with. Where an independent advocate, an Independent Mental Capacity Advocate or an Independent Mental Health Advocate is involved, the advocate should be kept informed so that they can support the adult in understanding the outcome of the assessment and its implications.\nThe local authority can delegate the majority of its care and support functions including assessment (see Delegation of Local Authority Functions). In doing so it should ensure the body carrying out an assessment complies with all the requirements and fulfils all of the relevant duties under the Act and regulations, such as providing an independent advocate. Anything done by the body carrying out an assessment is treated as if done by the local authority. In respect of duties surrounding non-delegated functions, such as safeguarding, the local authority should have appropriate processes in place to ensure it fulfils these functions, for example, agreeing with the body that the local authority is notified if a safeguarding issue arises (see Adult Safeguarding).\nSome of the duties and powers detailed in this chapter apply to children and young carers in transition, as well as to adults (see Transition to Adult Care and Support).",

        "raw_content": "Bennett Custom Awards Created for eSports Tournament at Leading Video Game Conference\nFACEIT, the leading platform for online competitions in PvP (player versus player) multiplayer games, commissioned Bennett Awards to create new custom awards for an eSports competition they recently held. The competition was a custom-built celebrity 1v1 Quake tournament held at the 2016 D.I.C.E Summit. The D.I.C.E. (Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain) Summit is an annual multi-day gathering of video game executives held in Las Vegas, Nevada. Established in 2002 by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences, the conference emphasizes the business and production end of the industry, with a focus on trends and innovations in video game design.\nFACEIT chose Bennett Awards to create new custom awards to be presented to the winner of the Quake competition held during the summit. FACEIT worked with Bennett Awards to create a new, unique custom award design based on the FACEIT logo. One of the key graphical elements in the FACIT logo is a geometric shape like the tip of an arrow, and this was the shape of the sculpture that was created to serve as the main design element of the award. This sculpture was fabricated out of aluminum, and then painted with a high-gloss paint in the orange color of FACEIT\u2019s logo design. This aluminum sculpture was mounted on a unique, handcrafted multi-tier hardwood base that featured diagonal cuts to match the shape of the sculpture. An engraved plate with the winner\u2019s name was attached to the front of the base.\nFounded in 2011, FACEIT has quickly become the leading platform for online competitions in PvP multiplayer games. With nearly 3,000,000 users and continuous exponential growth, FACEIT now hosts over 2,000 tournaments and 5,000,000 game sessions per month.\nNewer PostGlobal Semiconductor Alliance Commissions Bennett Custom Awards\nOlder PostPresident of Mexico Presented with Bennett Recognition Award",

        "raw_content": "The Myth of Shared Womanhood and How It Perpetuates Inequality\nI\u2019ve been thinking a lot about shared female identity. A lot of people seem to think that being born with female parts bonds you in some significant way to other people who are born with female parts. In order to get the most out of all that bonded-female-parts-ness, there are events and outings that welcome female-born people only, places where we can listen to the music \u201cwe\u201d like and talk about our periods or something. It goes like this: \u201cwomen\u201d have a different experience in the world than \u201cmen\u201d and therefore understand each other on some deep level and in some universal way because of that experience. While I agree, of course, with that first part, I find the last part really tricky.\nI don\u2019t feel any universal connection with all people who are born with female parts. I\u2019m not sure I know anyone who actually does, not when you really break it down. Because, despite what mainstream (white) feminism and tampon commercials would have us believe, \u201cshared\u201d female experience isn\u2019t really all that \u201cshared\u201d at all.\nLet\u2019s take for example a well-known issue that affects women\u2013the issue of \u201cequal pay.\u201d We\u2019ve all heard the statistic: in the US, women make 77 cents for every dollar a man makes on average. That sucks. But it\u2019s not quite the shared experience it seems. A recent report by the National Partnership for Women & Families shows that black women only make 70 cents for every dollar a man makes on average, and only 64 cents compared to every dollar paid to a white, non-Hispanic man. And Latinas make only 55 cents for every dollar made by a white, non-Hispanic man. Well, damn. That 77 cents never looked so good.\nOf course, it\u2019s not just economics\u2026\nBest Frienemies Forever: On Femme of Color Competition",

        "title": "Jules Ferry Biography",
        "raw_content": "Jules Ferry Biography\nJules Francois Camille Ferry (April 5, 1832 - March 17, 1893) was a French statesman.\nBorn in Saint-Di\u00e9, in the Vosges d\u00e9partement, France, he studied law, and was called to the bar at Paris, but soon went into politics, contributing to various newspapers, particularly to the Temps. He attacked the Second French Empire with great violence, directing his opposition especially against Baron Haussmann, prefect of the Seine. Elected republican deputy for Paris in 1869, he protested against the declaration of war with Germany, and on September 6, 1870 was appointed prefect of the Seine by the government of national defence.\nIn this position he had the difficult task of administering Paris during the siege, and after the Paris Commune was obliged to resign (June 5, 1871). From 1872-1873 he was sent by Adolphe Thiers as minister to Athens, but returned to the chamber as deputy for the Vosges, and became one of the leaders of the republican party. When the first republican ministry was formed under WH Waddington on February 4, 1879, he was one of its members, and continued in the ministry until March 30, 1885, except for two short interruptions (from November 10, 1881 to January 30, 1882, and from July 29, 1882 to February 21, 1883), first as minister of education and then as minister of foreign affairs. He was twice premier (1880-1881 and 1883-1885).\nTwo important works are associated with his administration, the non-clerical organization of public education, and the beginning of the colonial expansion of France. Following the republican programme he proposed to destroy the influence of the clergy in the university. He reorganized the committee of public education (law of February 27, 1880), and proposed a regulation for the conferring of university degrees, which, though rejected, aroused violent polemics because the 7th article took away from the unauthorized religious orders the right to teach. He finally succeeded in passing the great law of March 28, 1882, which made primary education in France free, non-clerical and obligatory. In higher education, the number of professors doubled under his ministry.\nAfter the military defeat of France by Germany in 1870, he formed the idea of acquiring a great colonial empire, not to colonize it, but for the sake of economic exploitation. He directed the negotiations which led to the establishment of a French protectorate in Tunis (1881), prepared the treaty of December 17, 1885 for the occupation of Madagascar; directed the exploration of the Congo and of the Niger region; and above all he organized the conquest of Indo-China. The excitement caused at Paris by an unimportant reverse of the French troops at Lang-son caused his downfall (March 30, 1885), but the treaty of peace with China (June 9, 1885) was his work.\nHe still remained an influential member of the moderate republican party, and directed the opposition to General Boulanger. After the resignation of Jules Gr\u00e9vy (December 2, 1887), he was a candidate for the presidency of the republic, but the radicals refused to support him, and he withdrew in favour of Sadi Carnot.\nThe violent polemics aroused against him at this time caused a madman to attack him with a revolver, and he died from the wound, on the March 17, 1893. The chamber of deputies voted him a state funeral.\nFerry's 1st Ministry, 23 September 1880 - 14 November 1881\nJules Ferry - President of the Council and Minister of Public Instruction and Fine Arts\nJules Barth\u00e9lemy-Saint-Hilaire - Minister of Foreign Affairs\nJean Joseph Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Adolphe Farre - Minister of War\nErnest Constans - Minister of the Interior and Worship\nPierre Magnin - Minister of Finance\nJules Cazot - Minister of Justice\nGeorges Charles Clou\u00e9 - Minister of Marine and Colonies\nSadi Carnot - Minister of Public Works\nAdolphe Cochery - Minister of Posts and Telegraphs\nPierre Tirard - Minister of Agriculture and Commerce\nFerry's 2nd Ministry, 21 February 1883 - 6 April 1885\nPaul-Armand Challemel-Lacour - Minister of Foreign Affairs\nJean Thibaudin - Minister of War\nRen\u00e9 Waldeck-Rousseau - Minister of the Interior\nPierre Tirard - Minister of Finance\nF\u00e9lix Martin-Feuill\u00e9ee - Minister of Justice and Worship\nCharles Brun - Minister of Marine and Colonies\nJules M\u00e9line - Minister of Agriculture\nDavid Raynal - Minister of Public Works\nAnne Charles H\u00e9risson - Minister of Commerce\n9 August 1883 - Alexandre Louis Fran\u00e7ois Peyron succeeds Charles Brun as Minister of Marine and Colonies\n9 October 1883 - Jean-Baptiste Campenon succeeds Thibaudin as Minister of War.\n20 November 1883 - Jules Ferry succeeds Challemel-Lacour as Minister of Foreign Affairs.

        "raw_content": "Embezzlement is a special name restricted to stealing financial assets from an employer or business. As a form of white collar crime, the offense was lightly punished until recent years when several large stories involving millions of dollars made embezzlement an issue of national discussion. Since then, the crime of embezzlement, along with other white collar crimes, has been intensely prosecuted and severely punished.\nThe act of embezzling money occurs within a business. While some of the most noteworthy cases have involved high-powered CEO's or high level employees, an individual's ranking in the company does not have any weight on the severity of punishment he or she may receive if convicted. Rather, punishment is determined based on the value of the property that was stolen from the company.\nWhen a company suspects it has become the victim to embezzlement, the supervisors may seek out the prime suspect and force him or her to sign a confession as soon as they are accused. However, the suspect does not have a legal obligation to comply and has every right to retain the assistance of an attorney. In fact, it is advisable that anyone suspected of embezzlement refrain from making any statements of confession or admission until he or she has consulted with their criminal defense lawyer.\nQuality Criminal Defense Against Your Embezzlement Charge\nThere are a number of defenses possible for charges of embezzlement and the best one depends on the specific situation. At Blaine Jones Law, LLC, our Pittsburgh criminal defense attorney can provide you with experienced legal services in defending against an embezzlement charge. No matter how big the offense, we want to protect your rights and interests so that you have the best chance of a positive outcome.

        "raw_content": "The 47Madison apartments project won a 13-0 approval Thursday from the Kansas City Council, bolstered by the fact that no public incentives were sought.\nThe 13-story luxury apartment development by Block Real Estate Services will rise from a vacant wedge of land at 47th Street between Madison Avenue and Roanoke Parkway.\nThe tower and adjacent town home-like structure along Roanoke were presented to the City Plan Commission in December. The plan sailed through the city\u2019s approval process and is expected to have a groundbreaking in May or June.\nBlock acquired the property from Highwoods Properties, the former owner of the Country Club Plaza, and a private investment group. The company opted to build 245 residential units rather than an office tower on the site, partly to minimize traffic congestion on the busy commuter routes.\n\u201cThis will be one of the most visible and exciting new apartment developments in Kansas City for years to come,\u201d said Scott Taylor, chairman of the council\u2019s Planning, Zoning & Economic Development Committee. \u201cWe are excited to support this significant $90 million private-sector investment in Kansas City with no incentives requested.\u201d\nThe project is designed by NSPJ Architects and will be built by Titan Built. It includes a 322-space parking garage and outdoor green space accessible to the public at the 47th Street tip of the triangular tract. The apartments are expected to command luxury-level rents.\nRead more here: http://www.kansascity.com/news/business/development/article127576589.html#storylink=cpy\nSource: KC Star",

        "raw_content": "I am happy to say that I'm having a lovely \"breather\" from work this week, as we are on Spring Break! Because I have different things going on during my break, I didn't want to get caught up in a long novel that would make me want to stay curled up under a blanket all week to read it. Yes, yes, I know that \"normally\" it's exactly like what I'd want to do - but...it IS spring here in Texas, and we've had a few lovely days and more on the way. As much as I love to read, I also love being outdoors. Rarely do these two conflict but, when they do, I try to be outside as much as possible when the weather permits. (I mean, this IS Texas - which means spring doesn't last long, and we can go from a mild winter to 102 degrees in the blink of an eye.)\nAll that being said, I decided to stay away from long and in-depth books and do a little 'buffet' reading. You know, pick a few small, unimportant novels - a little fluff, so to speak. Now, I'm not a book snob, so I'm pretty much game for anything within reason. I skimmed my book shelves and my Kindle, but...I don't buy 'fluff,' so I shopped for some inexpensive ($1.99) reads on Kindle. After I thought I'd found a few, my book buffet began.\nI enjoyed the first book. It was cute, simple. I had the plot pretty much figured out (including the ending) by the time I was done reading a fourth of it. Of course, I didn't want something too involved - I mean, wasn't that the point? On to the next book, the plot...pretty much played out like the first one. Don't get me wrong, I can find redeeming qualities about each, just...not very many. Quick, easy reads - isn't that what I wanted?\nHere's the thing about a buffet, though. If you're not real picky with what you read, it seems to satisfy the need for reading, but...it doesn't stick with you. I mean, it's fun in the moment (which is fine)...buuuuut, after the third one...I realized my brain wasn't really being fed. Is that so bad? Well, I guess it all depends. I thought what I wanted was to read but try to give my brain a bit of a vacation, too. What I realized is my brain appreciates a vacation where it can build its own world inside my head. That IS my brain's version of \"fun\" - which really means, it's also my version of fun.\nWhat did I do about it?\nWell, I got up this morning and looked at the calendar. I still have four days left of my break. I do have plans that don't involve reading, of course, but I've decided it's time to give my brain what it wants. It's suffered from malnutrition long enough. And if you're wondering if I'm aware that there are strong, powerful, well-written books that aren't the size of doorstoppers, I should acknowledge that I am very aware. I am including those when I say \"in-depth\" books. I do not mean size. When a book is good, no matter the size, it pulls me in and makes me a part of it. It engages my brain, my heart, and my soul. It takes energy and thought and, because of the way I am, usually involves additional research of some kind. I do not read just to follow words across a page and to mark it off my reading list. I read to add something to my life.\nI guess...that's what was missing from my fluff reads. They didn't add anything to my life. It's like watching a sitcom just to have something blaring on the television. There's nothing wrong with that, of course, it...just...doesn't happen to be my thing.\nI do have two other books I read before the break that I want to tell you about, but I'm not in the mood to write about them today. I guess I'm a bit anxious to have some reading time before I start my day's adventures. I promise to write about them in the next few days before I go back to work. Hopefully, I'll also have something interesting to tell you about the book I am about to start today.\nLabels: books, bookworms, Kindle, Kindle Fire, novels, reading, Spring Break",

The event will take place over the weekend of 28 \u2013 30 August 2015 and the arrangement has secured the future of MotoGP\u2122 racing in the UK following the recent announcement by Donington Park confirming that they will not be hosting the event.\nPatrick Allen, Managing Director of Silverstone commented: \u201cA lot of work has been done over recent years to ensure MotoGP\u2122 fans enjoy what Silverstone has to offer and it was devastating for the venue to lose the event last autumn. I welcomed the opportunity to meet with both Dorna and the Circuit of Wales recently so that we could try and find a way to keep MotoGP\u2122 in the UK and racing at Silverstone. Two wheel racing is as much a part of Silverstone\u2019s heritage as four wheel racing and I am obviously delighted to be in a position to announce we are hosting both the F1\u2122 and MotoGP\u2122 Grands Prix in 2015.\u201d\n\u201cWe have recently introduced a family friendly pricing policy for the Formula 1 British Grand Prix which is proving extremely popular and over the next two weeks I will be working closely with my team at Silverstone to launch a ticket model for MotoGP\u2122 that I hope will be equally well received by fans.\u201d\n\u201cI would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers who have moved their event dates to enable us to accommodate MotoGP\u2122. Particular thanks must go to Renault Sport who have been extremely helpful in working with us to move the date to September 5th & 6th of their World Series by Renault event.\u201d\nPatrice Ratti, Renault Sport Technologies Managing Director: \u2018\u2018Through our close relationship with Silverstone, we have been able to quickly find a fully satisfactory solution. This will allow the passionate fans to come in droves on 5 and 6 September to attend this comeback in Great-Britain which gathered an average of more than 100.000 people on the last editions.\u2019\u2019\nMichael Carrick, Chief Executive of Circuit of Wales commented \u201cWe are delighted to announce that we have reached agreement with Silverstone to host the 2015 and 2016 British rounds of MotoGP\u2122. We want to thank the new management at Silverstone, our partners at Dorna and our investors for the rapid response needed to support the 2015 event when it became clear that we would be unlikely to conclude the contractual arrangements at Donington.

        "raw_content": "Home /What I Do\nI am a web developer, and I specialize in the Drupal CMS.\nUnfortunately, as I primarily subcontract for other shops with non-disclosure agreements as part of the contract, it is difficult to demonstrate a traditional portfolio of work. However, here are some descriptions of the types of problems and resulting solutions I've architected and implemented for my clients.\nDrupal itself!\nOver time, I've contributed code and patches to Drupal 5, 6, 7 & 8. While I don't have numbers for Drupal 5 and 6, I've contributed to 33 patches for Drupal 7 and 11 patches for Drupal 8.\nAdditionally, I've contributed or maintained the following Drupal contributed modules:\nHomebox (60 commits)\nBalance Tracker (43 commits)\nSalesforce Suite (29 commits)\nPrimary Term (26 commits)\nGridster.JS dashboard (9 commits)\nLarge Media Portal\nI am currently involved in the maintenance and development of a large media portal. This project is implemented in Drupal 7, but has some unique challenges as it has to cache a minimum of 6 months-worth data for millions of users otherwise only available over a slow API. At one time, this project had one of the largest databases hosted at Acquia until we were able to optimize the data storage resulting in a 80% reduction in used storage space. In addition to optimizing the database storage, we have been able to improve every end-user performance metric across the project significantly.\nReal time document management and Collaboration system\nin 2012, I designed and developed a workgroup-based document management and realtime collaboration system based on Drupal 7 for Transport Canada. This project had been under way for several months, and had well documented specifications representing the needs of a large body of stakeholders across Transport Canada. Unfortunately, there was already in existence an very poorly executed Drupal 6-based implementation.\nAs part of a small team of three developers, we made a case for a fresh start using Drupal 7 and it's entity support. Upon getting approval, we were able to rebuild the project over the course of 2 months. We developed a complete collaborative workflow including state tracking, document access permissions and more. We used LDAP -based authentication. We integrated Etherpad to power the collaborative document editing. Additionally, we were able to contribute a series of improvements to the Oracle driver for Drupal as well as contribute compatibility patches to various contrib modules.\nConference management and Registration system\nI lead the architecture and implementation of a complete front-to-back conference management and registration system for a client organization that regularly hosted week-long conferences. Due to the specific business requirements of this client, they were unable to use existing conference management software, and instead required a fully custom solution. Additionally, each conference varied in the types of event content and registration requirements for each conference, which in turn required a solution that offered a great deal of flexibility.\nVarious migrations\nMany of the projects I've been involved in have required migration into Drupal from a wide range of sources. These have spanned the range from simple migrations from MySQL, to being handed multiple gigbytes of XML files, to having to retrieve data from third party APIs, to third party platforms like Clickability.",

        "raw_content": "Dragons Ride Strong Second Half To Victory\nAfter falling behind 28-22 at the half, Drexel came out much more focused and was able to steal one away from the Cougars by a final score of 53-51. Damion Lee led all scorers with 21 points, while the College of Charleston's Canyon Barry led the Cougars with 16 points.\nThe Dragons' offense struggled at first against a stronger than average Cougars' defense, and it showed as the Dragons shot just 34% (13-44) on the game from the field. Drexel also went 9-22 from three point territory. However, the main difference was the foul shot differential. Drexel went 14-16 from the line, good for 87.5%. The College of Charleston was only able to go 4-6 from the free throw line. Those 10 extra points came in handy for the Dragons.\nThe Dragons defense was great this afternoon. Not only did they hold the Cougars to just 51 points, with just 23 coming in the second half, but they forced the Cougars into committing 11 turnovers. Granted, the Cougars aren't known for their offensive prowess, but the Dragons only allowed two opposing players to record more than seven points.\nThe win brings the Dragons to 5-14 on the season, but gives them their third win in conference play. With just 10 games left on the season ( 5 on the road, 5 at home), the Dragons have some serious ground to make up. Maybe an NCAA Tournament birth isn't likely, but they can still position themselves for a good run in the CAA Tournament. With experienced players like Damion Lee and Tavon Allen, the Dragons have two guys they can rely upon for leadership come playoff time.",

        "raw_content": "The Bullough\u2019s Pond\nAll of us who love Bullough\u2019s Pond know the gift the pond gives to us every time we see it. Bullough\u2019s has a way of making even one\u2019s darkest days brighter. It is a calming, reassuring and joyful place with the power to lift one\u2019s spirits and make all things seem possible again. Now is the time to give something back to Bullough\u2019s Pond, something even more substantial than one\u2019s annual contribution, something that lasts.\nWhen a colonial miller, Lt. John Spring, dammed a local brook in 1664, he created the pond to power his gristmill, and could not have foreseen what a rare oasis of tranquility the pond would become in our time. In his time, the pond was called Spring\u2019s Pond, and later Pearl Lake, and finally Bullough\u2019s Pond, after John Bullough, who purchased the mill. Over the centuries, Bullough\u2019s Pond has seen service as a source for icebox blocks and as a destination ice skating venue. Now the pond is a place for kayaking, fishing, running, bird watching, painting, model yacht sailing and peaceful walks. It\u2019s a little bit of nature and a lot of beauty in our neighborhood. It\u2019s a treasure that we must protect and enhance.\nA Once-in-350-Years Opportunity\n2014 is the sestercentennial of the founding of Bullough\u2019s Pond, its 350th birthday, and the Bullough\u2019s Pond Association is asking you to consider giving the pond a generous birthday gift, in addition to your yearly membership donation. Annual contributions to the Bullough\u2019s Pond Association cover the costs of the Association\u2019s maintenance of the pond, but are not sufficient to finance improvements. The Association is launching the Bullough\u2019s Pond 350th Anniversary Campaign with the goal of raising $250,000. The first project on the Association\u2019s agenda is a re-purposing of the decaying warming hut\u2026\nThe Pavilion Project\nThe Association seeks to make needed major improvements to the pond, by rebuilding the dilapidated former warming hut and damaged asphalt boat ramp to create a beautiful multi-use pavilion with a renewed boat ramp and landscaping. The Association will design the site with the input of the neighborhood and in conjunction with the City. The repurposed structure will provide a sheltered place for people to enjoy the pond as they sit, sketch, bird watch, listen to a lecture, practice yoga, or just pass the time. The pavilion will open up the view to the pond while providing shelter from the sun or rain.\nSee below for some very preliminary conceptual drawings of what a repurposed pavilion could look like. The final design and functionality will be developed in conjunction with the neighborhood and the City\u2019s Parks and Recreation officials.\nOnline: It\u2019s simple and easy to make a gift through the Donate page of this website.\nBy Check: You may prefer to send a check made out to the \u201cBullough\u2019s Pond Association\u201d to P.O. Box 600669, Newtonville, MA 02460. Please make a note that your gift is for the 350th Anniversary Campaign.\nContact Us: Please contact the Bullough\u2019s Pond Association board if you are interested in making a large gift. Use the Contact Us option on this website, or email us at webmasterbulloughspond@gmail.com. BPA President Marilyn Campbell or BPA Treasurer Joseph Tischler will get in touch with you promptly.\n\u201cBricks for Bullough\u2019s\u201d: Help us pave the boat ramp and the pathway to the pavilion with elegant granite bricks. Buy a brick for $100 and the Association will add your name to a plaque at the site acknowledging all contributers to the campaign, and to the \u201cBricks for Bullough\u2019s\u201d program specifically. Simply note on your check or online payment that your $100 gift is a \u201cBrick\u2019s for Bullough\u2019s\u201d contribution.\nTax Deductible: The Bullough\u2019s Pond Association is a registered 501(c)3 charity and your contributions are tax deductible.",

        "raw_content": "There you go again, Mr. Obama -- again and again and again, engaging in class warfare.\nTrying to make voters think Mitt Romney cares more about the offshore bank accounts of the wealthy than the pocketbooks of the middle class.\nProving for the umpteenth time that you know nothing about economics, how wealth and jobs are created or why businesses and rich people are moving themselves or their money overseas to escape the taxes you think aren't high enough.\n\"There you go again, Mr. Obama.\"\nThat's what my father would have said to the president's latest dumb idea to punish rich and successful Americans by raising their taxes.\nPresident Obama challenged Mitt Romney this week to join him in asking Congress to extend the Bush tax cuts only for households earning less than $250,000.\nEveryone above that figure -- about 2 percent of Americans -- would lose the Bush tax cuts, which covered all taxpayers and expire at the end of the year.\nPresident Obama, I feel your pain. You were in way over your head when you essentially became the CEO of the largest economy in the world.\nYou had less business experience than a seven-year-old girl running a front-yard lemonade stand. But by now I thought you would have learned that it is high corporate tax rates, over-regulation and finance laws like the Dodd-Frank Act that are chasing industry and jobs and capital out of the country.\nApparently not. You and your fellow taxoholics in Washington still don't understand how much damage you're doing.\nIt's gotten so bad that one of your party's biggest campaign contributors, socialite and ex-songwriter Denise Rich, renounced her citizenship last year in part because Austria's tax policies will let her keep more of her wealth.\nRich, in case you've forgotten, Mr. President, is the ex-wife of Marc Rich, the zillionaire Wall Street trader and tax evader who received a controversial pardon from Bill Clinton.\nShe's been living large in a $65 million Manhattan penthouse, but she's what you'd call \"a good rich person,\" Mr. President. Like George Clooney, Bill Maher, George Soros, the Kennedys and others, she's a Democrat.\nUnfortunately, Mr. President, Denise Rich is not alone. According to your friends at the IRS, nearly 1,800 American citizens and green card holders officially severed ties with the United States in 2011.\nThat includes Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, who decided that when he became a Facebook billionaire he'd rather be a resident of Singapore.\nThe weather down there is a little sticky, and the laws against the import and sale of chewing gum are a little severe, but Singapore just happens to have no capital gains tax.\nMr. President, I realize all those people didn't renounce their citizenship for tax reasons. But you should be embracing policies that will encourage rich and successful folks like your celebrity friends in Hollywood to keep their multimillions working here at home to grow our economy.\nMy father only had an economics degree from little Eureka College, but he knew government doesn't create wealth or prosperity by raising taxes, over-regulating the economy or punishing success.\nMitt Romney already knows those principles. He got very rich -- in the private sector -- because he's really smart about financial matters, which, with all due respect, Mr. President, is something you have spent more than three years proving you are really dumb about.\nYes, Mr. President, Mitt Romney is a very successful businessman. You can beat him up for that. But I'm hoping and praying that this fall the American people will give him a chance to clean up the mess you've made.\nCopyright 2012 Michael Reagan.

        "raw_content": "News and eventsPress ReleasesNew Volunteer Polic\u2026\nNew Volunteer Police Cadet scheme launched in Wisbech\nYoung people in Wisbech will have the opportunity of helping to keep their neighbourhood safe with the roll-out of a successful police cadet scheme.\nCambridgeshire Police and Crime Commissioner Sir Graham Bright has today announced the launch of a third Volunteer Police Cadet Scheme in the county which will train scores of youngsters in a variety of policing activities and conflict management as well as develop their knowledge of the law.\nThe new scheme is opening at the Queen Mary Centre in Wisbech from September and sessions will take place every Wednesday from 5pm until 7pm.\nIt is the third such initiative to open in the county. The first unit at the Thomas Deacon Academy in Peterborough is operational while the cadets at the second unit at Soham Village College, are currently undergoing training and will qualify in July. There are also plans for a fourth unit in Cambridge City in the near future.\nThe scheme is open to young people aged between 13 and 18 and no prior experience or specific skills are required. In addition to weekly meetings, cadets will also be able to volunteer in their local community, supporting police teams at public events, delivering crime prevention advice and carrying out mystery shopper activities for age-restricted items.\nCommenting on the launch of the new scheme, Sir Graham said: \u201cI\u2019m delighted to announce the expansion of this project which is helping to inspire young people to gain new skills and use their time effectively for the benefit of the whole community.\n\u201cBeing part of a cadet scheme boosts self-confidence and personal pride and gives young people a positive direction to follow. It also helps to breakdown stereotypes of young people and shows the public that young people can and are making a difference.\u201d\nIf you would like more information on becoming a cadet please contact Hannah Watson, volunteer co-ordinator, on 01954 713911 or email hannah.watson@cambs.pnn.police.uk. We would also be interested to hear from anyone who would like to be a volunteer adult leader to help supervise and train the cadets.\n\u00ab Police volunteers are helping to carve positive futures for young people, says Commissioner Cambridgeshire\u2019s Independent Custody Visitors praised during National Volunteering Week \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Oftentimes, people fall into the credit card debt trap because they do not have a budget to manage what they are spending versus their income. The snowball method is a great way to begin paying down the debt. A person places as much money as he or she possibly can onto the smallest debt to pay it off, and then he or she continues onto the next smallest debt until all the debt has been cleared.\nAlthough it may seem like a great first option, closing down credit cards can negatively impact one's credit score. It is best to leave the cards open, so a person should find other means -- such as shredding, freezing or hiding -- to avoid the temptation of using the open accounts. Another way to avoid temptation is for a person to avoid his or her favorite stores and/or unsubscribe from email lists, magazines or catalogs that may prompt impulse spending.\nOne of the best ways for New Jersey residents to avoid further debt is to shift the focus from spending money to saving money. The excess money that may surface from avoiding the extraneous spending can be placed into an emergency savings, used to pay down debt or set aside for vacations. For many people, the amount of money coming in is not nearly enough to pay their creditors. In those extreme cases, filing for personal bankruptcy can be a great way to start over fresh with a clean slate and be relieved from debt for good.\nSource: myfoxny.com, \"Wipe out debt for good\", Andrew Housser, July 29, 2014",

Representatives from Good Shepherd have until April 24 to respond.\nThe diocese\u2019s legal counsel initiated the court action in January, charging that the persons who control Good Shepherd have announced that they no longer consider the parish to be a constituent part of the Diocese of Pennsylvania or the Episcopal Church and are not required to comply with the constitution and canons of either body. As a result, the assets of Good Shepherd are no longer being used for the benefit of the Episcopal Church, the petition states.\nFor years the parish has refused to support the diocese and its programs financially or to send representatives to the annual diocesan convention. It has refused to give permission to the bishop for official visits to inspect the parish register, preach or conduct confirmations.\nMichael Rehill, diocesan chancellor, said he believes the Standing Committee intends to reestablish an Episcopal church on the site rather than sell the property and buildings. He said he sees the issue as clear-cut. \"What does it mean to be Episcopalian if you don\u2019t pay and don\u2019t acknowledge the leadership?\" he asked. \"It means you\u2019ve left the church.\"",

        "raw_content": "President calls education \u2018single best investment you can make\u2019 in signing order to extend PAYE initiative to 5m more youngsters\nIn another attempt to stem the economic threat of high student debt and win favor for his party before November\u2019s election, President Obama on Monday signed an executive order that will limit federal student loan payments for 5 million more people.\nCalling an education \u201cthe single best investment you can make in your future,\u201d Obama extended the four-year-old Pay As You Earn initiative, which has lowered monthly payments for student who borrowed federal student loans for the first time between 2008 and 2011.\nThe program lowered monthly payments to 10% of a borrower\u2019s after-tax income. Borrowers who graduated before 2008 or after 2012 had access to another program, which limits student payments to 15% of income.\nMonday\u2019s executive order will extend the initiative to anyone with a federal student loan.\nIt also adds another dimension: forgiveneness of student loans. If borrowers make regular payments on the PAYE program, the government will forgive any unpaid portion of their loans after 20 years. Forgiveness comes even sooner for students who decide to take government or nonprofit jobs, who will find themselves released from their loans after 10 years of regular payments.\nThere is also an element of political timing to the announcement. In September, Democrats face bitter battles for control of the Senate and the House.\nStill, student loans remain a sweeping and intractable problem,which Obama acknowledged. The last major piece of legislation on them passed in 2010.\nOne barrier to PAYE, as the program is called, is that few people with student loans have shown any interest in it. Only about 200,000 people have reportedly opted for the current version of the program, according to Vox, although 17.5m people qualify.\nAnother barrier to the effectiveness of PAYE: borrowers will have to be patient. The order won\u2019t go into effect until December 2015, meaning borrowers will still have make thousands of dollars in student-loan payments for the next year and a half.\nThe program also doesn\u2019t address the rocketing price of tuition, which has grown by more than 250% over the past 30 years at public four-year colleges. Also out in the cold are those who didn\u2019t qualify for federal student loans and hold private student loans from banks.\n\u201cIt\u2019s going to make progress \u2013 but not enough,\u201d Obama said of the extension of PAYE. \u201cI don\u2019t know why more people aren\u2019t more outraged about this.\u201d\nStudent-loan debt is the fastest-growing category of debt for consumers, swelling at about 7.8% a year. That has caused young adults to face a more difficult \u201con-ramp to adulthood\u201d that Georgetown researchers called a \u201cfailure to launch.\u201d\nThere is about $1.1tn in outstanding student loans in the US, and the individual burden is an average of $29,000 per borrower.\nStudent loan payments recently hit a record high compared to disposable income for many families. Student debt made up 63% of the $180bn gain in total household debt between the end of 2012 and the end of 2013, according to economist Kristin Reynolds of IHS Global Insight.\nMany borrowers, overwhelmed by debt, are simply defaulting on their loans. The delinquency rate for student loans is currently about 11%, and has been sharply rising since 2005, according to Bloomberg data.\nObama compared the burden of current students with his when he was younger, when he paid off his undergraduate education at Columbia in a year. \u201cIn the 1970s, the 1980s, when you went to college, you didn\u2019t anticipate you\u2019d have this massive debt,\u201d Obama said.\nThe growing loan burden also reflects that tuition has grown by more than 250% over the past 30 years at public four-year colleges, treasury secretary Jack Lew is fond of pointing out, compared to a 16% rise in family incomes.\nThe problem is a sweeping one. Student loan debt is \u201cone of the greater risks to the consumer economy\u201d over the next five to 10 years, Janney Capital Markets managing director Guy Lebas wrote this year. Bloomberg economist Richard Yamarone called student loans \u201cthe next subprime crisis\u201d and warned that the high default rate on student loans threatens the economy.\n\u201cLoans to students are essentially the only extension of credit one can get today without a job income, or asset,\u201d Yamarone wrote.\nTags: Education, forgiveneness of student loans, President Obama, student loan",

In geek speak, it is when your computer calls out to another computer to see if it is active. If the other machine responds, the computer proceeds to send the rest of the information. It\ufffds sort of like sending a text to someone to see if they\ufffdre busy before you call them to have a full conversation.\nUnfortunately, cyber criminals have used this helpful program to cause big problems for a lot of people. By constantly pinging a server, called a \ufffdping storm\ufffd, these hackers can cause massive disruptions. If this sounds familiar, it\ufffds because ping storms are a form of Denial of Service attacks, which we\ufffdve talked about before.\ntopic: Cyber Terminology\nCyber Terminology: What is Vaporware?\nHave you ever waited for a computer or video game to come out only to learn that the maker has pushed the release date back by months or years? I know I have! The term used to describe this kind of constant stalled release date is vaporware. Vaporware can also be used to describe software or hardware that was announced years before an actual release is planned. So why do they call it vaporware? Well, if I had to guess, it\ufffds because the unavailable product (much like water vapor) is impossible to grab on to! Have you ever tried to grab fog? Trust me, it doesn\ufffdt work out. Though the term was originally used to describe computer products, it is being adopted to describe nearly every product that is delayed or announced years in advance.\nAs frustrating as vaporware is, it\ufffds not always a bad thing. I mean, I\ufffdd rather have the developers take the time to perfect a product and miss their release dates if the product isn\ufffdt good enough to buy. Then again, I\ufffdd rather have the developer set more realistic goals for themselves in the first place!\nCyber Terminology: What is K.E.R.M.I.T?\nAh, Kermit. I have fond, fond memories of that little file-transfer protocol. Imagine me in the 1980s, cuddled up to my computer and transferring files between completely different computers running completely different operating systems! Simply amazing.\nKermit was named after the famous Muppets frog. In order to avoid copyright infringement the makers of Kermit changed the name to K.E.R.M.I.T., which stood for KL10 Error-Free Reciprocal Microprocessor Interchange over TTY lines.\nThroughout the 1980\ufffds, Kermit was used for a wide variety of things, whether it was simply transferring documents from computer to computer or solving problems on the International Space Station. Not too shabby for some very old technology, eh?\nCyber Terminology: What is a Bug?\nWe\ufffdve all heard of computer bugs, but do you know the origin of the term? Well, good news! You\ufffdre about to. The popular myth about this term dates back 1947 when Grace Hopper found that a moth had caused a Harvard University computer to fail. She \ufffddebugged\ufffd the computer by removing the moth and, as a result, the machine began to function normally again. Though this story is fun, it\ufffds not the real origin of the term. In fact, the term \ufffdbug\ufffd was also recorded in a 19th century electrical manual, which means it was used to describe technical problems during the 1800\ufffds.\nSo where does the term \ufffdbug\ufffd actually come from? No one knows for sure. If you ask me, it\ufffds probably something really simple. I mean, computer bugs are extremely annoying and many people find actual bugs to be pretty annoying, too! Think about it \ufffd computer bugs are to software what ants are to picnics \ufffd irritating!\nCyber Terminology: Proxy Server\nThis is usually the part of the blog where I tell you a fun story to introduce the topic. Maybe I\ufffdd share an experience I had. Maybe I\ufffdd ask you if you ever did something that involved the subject of the blog. This time, however\ufffdI\ufffdve got nothing! I don\ufffdt have any funny stories about proxy servers! Sure, I\ufffdve used them (and so have you, more than likely), but they\ufffdre just not the sort of thing you notice. Oh well. I guess I should just tell you about them.\nA proxy server is a server that has a job to do with the information that travels between a user and other servers on the Internet, just like the mailman who handles your mail before you receive it. This might seem unnecessary, but a proxy server can be very useful for doing all kinds of jobs, particularly for protecting you and your information from cyber threats. For example, some proxy servers protect users\ufffd identities by encrypting their connection. Other proxy servers are used to log people\ufffds Internet usage or block certain Web sites. They can even be used to scan for malware before the data is delivered to the user! No, proxy servers aren\ufffdt the most exciting things in the world, but they sure are useful!\nCyber Terminology: Mail Server\nThe next time you go to a post office, take a look behind the counter. You will probably see a bunch of different carts and containers filled with all sorts of mail waiting to be sorted and delivered. This is exactly how a mail server works\ufffdbut a mail server works much faster!\nSay I\ufffdm sending an email to Betty. After I type in Betty\ufffds email address, compose my message to her, and hit send, my email service sends my message to the mail server. Once it gets there, the mail server breaks my message apart into small packets of information (so no one can steal it and read it) and sends it to Betty\ufffds email service.\nIt\ufffds almost like you are trying to send a letter to your friend, but before the letter can be delivered, the post office cuts it up into tiny bits and tapes it all back together right before your friend gets it! Imagine how much a stamp would cost if the post office had to do all that\ufffd\nCyber Terminology: What is a Peer to Peer Network?\nA peer-to-peer (p2p) network allows computer users to share everything from files to network bandwidth with one another. Most often, p2p networks are used to download files over the Internet. In order to do this, users must first download an application that connects them to other users. Once this is done, the user only has to search for the file he or she wants and, if it is found, can begin downloading it right away.\nSounds great, right? Well, in many ways, it is! With the many dangers of the Internet, however, it can also be risky. Joining a p2p network lets everyone else on that network access all the files on your computer. Also, this opens up an easy way to infect your computer with nasty malware. Because many programs don\ufffdt allow their users to have a firewall in place when the program is in use, it is important to keep your antivirus software up to date! If you\ufffdre going to join a p2p network, make sure you scan everything before you open it!\nCyber Terminology: What is an Internet Forum?\nAn Internet forum is a place on a Web site where people can meet and have online discussions. Usually these forums have several themes that are organized in different discussion areas. These different discussions are known as threads.\nFor example, say you were a huge music fan. If you went to an Internet forum for music (after getting permission, of course), you might find a bunch of different threads for each musical genre (like rock, hip hop, country, etc.). In these threads, there may be even more threads for individual bands or particular songs.\nIf you click on one of these threads, you will see a bunch of different people discussing what they think about the thread topic. What a great way to talk with people who have the same interests\ufffdas long as you\ufffdre safe!\nIf you ever join an Internet forum, make sure you never give out any personal information. Like anything else with the Internet, it can be a lot of fun if you\ufffdre careful! If anyone writes anything that makes you uncomfortable or tries to meet with you in person, make sure to report them to the forum\ufffds administrator and tell a trusted adult.\nCyber Terminology: What is a Web Server?\nWeb servers, simply put, are computers hooked up to the Internet that host Web sites. When you type in a Web address into your Web browser, you are directing your computer to the Web server that hosts the site where it requests information. Along with the request, your computer also sends your IP address so that the Web server knows where to send the information. The Web server then sends the information back to your computer, and the Web site you requested pops onto your screen.\nAnd to think, all you had to do was type a few words and press enter!\nCyber Terminology: What is Browser Compatibility?\nHello, cadets! The other day I was trying to watch a web video on albatross migration. When I clicked the link, the video just wouldn't play! I was so upset! Luckily, I always have two web browsers installed on my computer. I tried the link on the other Web site, and it worked perfectly. Weird, huh?\nNot really. Although all web browsers are very similar, they each read the hypertext markup language (html) of Web sites a little differently. These small differences can mean the difference between being able to watch the majestic albatross soar across the endless ocean and, well, shouting at your computer. Not that I shouted at my computer, of course.\nAnyway, try to keep two browsers up-to-date on your computer. This way, if one fails, you'll always have another option!\nCyber Terminology: What is a Buffer?\nHave you ever started watching a video online only to have it stall out in the middle? Usually, this is because the video isn't getting data fast enough. A way to help prevent this is something called buffering. A computer buffer allows for data to be downloaded while the program plays part of the file that's already been downloaded.\nWow. That came out more complicated than I meant. OK, let's put it this way. While the program you're using is receiving information, it is also playing the information that it has already received. This way, you're able to watch your video without skips and jumps.\nThat might've been tough to understand too. Hmmm. Here's a weird way to think about it that might help you understand what I mean. Say you want to eat a whole pizza. You start with just one slice. While you're eating that slice, a second slice is put on your plate. When you're done with the first slice and start eating the second slice, a third slice is put on your plate. This way, you never have to stop and wait for a new slice while you're eating! Streaming pizza!\nI hope that last example helps. Now if you'll excuse me, all this explaining has made me hungry.\nCyber Terminology: What is RSS?\nRSS, or real simple syndication, is a great way to stay up-to-date with any Web sites you like. It works by scanning the Web site for any changes. If it finds any, it alerts you with an email or text message. The email or text will have a link to the Web site if you want to see the new content.\nIn order to use RSS, you'll need to use a newsreader or aggregator. There are several of these programs on the Internet, so search for one you like the best. Once you find one that works best for you, you'll start noticing that many Web sites, especially social networking sites and news sites, have RSS buttons on them. By clicking on the button, you subscribe to the Web site's RSS feed and will begin getting updates right away.\nCyber Terminology: What is an IP Packet?\nGreetings cadets! My, it's certainly been a while since my last post. I suppose what they say is true; time flies when your cataloging reference documents!\nRecently, several cadets have been requesting information about IP packets. I think it would benefit everyone if I used this opportunity to discuss what they are. Whenever you sign on to the Internet, you are given an Internet protocol (IP) address - a series of numbers specific to your computer. This number is very important for transmitting and receiving information.\nFor example, when you go to a Web site, you are basically asking for information to be sent to your IP address. This information is broken down into small pieces called IP packets and sent to your IP address. Once they arrive, your computer puts all the information together and WHAM! You've got your information!\nForgive me; the idea of unlimited information at my fingertips makes me a bit excitable. At any rate, that's the basics of IP packets. If you have any more questions, send me an email and I'll be happy to help you learn!\nCyber Terminology: What is an Ethernet?\nAn ethernet is one of the most common communication methods for local area networks, or LANs. Ethernet networks are a very inexpensive way for people to easily share data and devices like printers in a building.\nA basic ethernet LAN includes two or more computers with a network interface card installed, a networking hub that sends and relays data to and from the machines on the network, and an ethernet cable to connect each computer to the hub. Each network interface card (also called an ethernet card) has a unique address that identifies that computer on the network.\nThe name ethernet comes from the concept of \"ether.\" Scientists used to think that there was an invisible substance in the atmosphere called \"ether\" that would carry light waves from one place to the other.\nCyber Terminology: What is HTML?\nHTML is short for Hyper Text Markup Language and is a programming language used for Web site files. HTML files have the file extension .HTM or .HTML.\nHTML code creates the structure of a Web site by using text \u201ctags\u201d to designate the different visual parts of the site. For example, a paragraph has a different tag than a picture does, and the browser knows to display them differently based on their tags. Another tag type, link tags, tell the browser that when a visitor clicks on the link it should go to a different Web page, and the URL of that page is part of the link tag code.\nCyber Terminology: What is an Intranet?\nAn intranet is an internal, secured network that has familiar, Internet-like functionality but doesn't actually connect to the Internet. An intranet operates on a LAN and behaves like a private version of the Internet.\nIntranets are used by companies so that they can securely and easily share information, computer systems, devices, and files with each other from anywhere within the business. Most of the time companies keep their intranet secure and protect their company secrets by only allowing employees who work for that company to access its intranet, and sometimes only from a company computer.\nCyber Terminology: What is Encryption?\nEncryption is the process of transforming text or data into an unreadable form. Only certain people can make it readable again, using a process called decryption. Only people with special software can decode encrypted digital data, making it harder for cyber criminals to steal personal information by spying on other people's Internet activities.\nBefore the Internet, encryption was mostly used by cryptographers trying to protect military and government secrets. Now that people use the Internet every day to access sensitive information, like their bank accounts and email messages, encryption has become vitally important for protecting your privacy and personal information online. Before you enter any sensitive information such as a password or account number into a Web site, check to make sure it will be encrypted before it is sent through the Internet to protect yourself.\nCyber Terminology: What is a Local Area Network?\nA Local Area Network, or LAN, is a computer network that covers a relatively small area, usually just a single building or small group of buildings. Each computer in a LAN operates by itself but can also access and share data with any other device in the network. This allows a group of people to share information and peripherals like printers, and to communicate with each other through the network by sending messages or chatting.\nLANs can also be used for LAN parties, where computers are networked together to play multiplayer computer games. LAN parties can be as small as two people or larger than 10,000 people. Some LAN parties require people to bring their own computers, and most are usually organized in advance to make sure there is enough space, electricity, and food for everyone.\nCyber Terminology: What is IP or Internet Protocol?\nDeveloped in the 1970s, Internet Protocol is the method that computers use to transmit data over the Internet. Every computer and Internet-enabled device connected to a network is assigned a unique Internet Protocol number, or IP address. This address is used to identify any data going to and from it the machine.\nIt's easier for most people to refer to a machine by its network name rather than directly by its IP address. IP addresses are a string of numbers that roughly indicate where the machine is and what network it is connected to. While you can't get a precise physical address from an IP address, you can find out what city and network it is from, so IP addresses should be considered personal information.\nIP addresses are an important tool for cyber defenders who track down cyber criminals. Since the IP address is part of every Internet transmission sent from a machine, any illegal activity from that machine can be traced right back to it. Law enforcement can then ask the Internet Service Provider for that IP address to reveal the address of the person using it and catch the cyber criminal.\nCyber Terminology: What is an ISP?\nAn Internet Service Provider, or ISP, is a company that provides access to the Internet to both home users and businesses. Most ISPs charge a monthly fee for their service, and the price varies according to the speed of the connection and the service package.\nMany ISPs provide their customers with a variety of ways to connect to their network, such as dial-up, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), cable modem, broadband wireless or dedicated high-speed interconnects. ISPs may also provide e-mail accounts and services such as remotely storing data files and free anti-virus software. They also are constantly working to increase their bandwidth capacity to meet the demands of their customers for a faster connection.\nCyber Terminology: What is a WiFi Hotspot?\nWiFi is short for Wireless Fidelity. It is a technology used all around the world that uses radio waves to connect devices without using wiring and cables. A WiFi hotspot is a location where a wireless network is available to connect to.\nIf the network allows public access, anyone within range of the access point who has a wireless device, such as a laptop or PDA, can use the hotspot. Devices like mobile WiFi scanning cards can help you locate a WiFi network. Many cities are working on turning the entire city into one large wireless hotspot so you access the Internet anywhere.\nSome hotspots are secured and you need a password to access them, but many are unsecured. They allow anyone access to them but are also more vulnerable to cyber criminal attacks.\nIn general, wireless networks are less secure than wired ones. Be careful what you use them for and follow the same safety guidelines for using a public computer outlined in October\u2019s Ask Omni feature: What should I be concerned about when using public computers?\nCyber Terminology: What is an Avatar?\nA computer avatar is a digital representation of a user or player. Avatars can be an icon or a 3-D character and are used in online games and on forums and Web sites to represent the user. The word comes from the Sanskrit word avatara, meaning \"incarnation\" or the earthly form of a spirit or god. The term was first used for a virtual representation of a user in 1985 (from Wikipedia).\nAn avatar in an online video game is the character that the player controls, their virtual in-game identity. Many games allow players to customize the appearance of their avatar, change their clothes, and equip them with items and gear. My avatar in the online game Puzzle Pirates is a girl pirate with a very fetching purple bandanna named Esmeralda.",

        "raw_content": "As I was preparing to leave for college way too long ago, my dad told me to be sure to introduce myself to the \u201cyoung priest\u201d at the parish I would be attending. Dad knew Father because they had served on a committee together. Talk at that time was that this priest would one day be a bishop.\nI did introduce myself, and we developed a good relationship. Ultimately we both moved back to the area where we both grew up. He remained a fixture in my life. Decades later, when my dad was dying, Father was instrumental in bringing him back to the Church. I am forever grateful to him.\nThat \u201cyoung priest\u201d retired several years ago. I look at him and wonder how that happened because, to paraphrase from a song in Fiddler on the Roof, \u201cI don\u2019t remember growing older. When did he?\u201d\nI think about my age a lot lately, in part because my husband and I are about to move to Nolensville, Tennessee to be near our daughter. I have been a Wisconsinite my entire life, so for me, this is a pretty significant change.\nMy husband and I began our married lives in the house we currently live in. I have many memories of loved ones here. There was the beautiful afternoon when my mother and I sat in the front yard under the tree while I was pregnant, discussing what it would be like to be a parent. I can show you where our daughter spoke her first word and where she took her first step.\nEvery year the peonies that bloom so gracefully remind me of my mother-in-law, who loved gardening and who enhanced our property when she planted them.\nOur parents and my husband\u2019s uncle helped us to move in. All of them are gone now.\nHow did I get to this age so quickly? I am now at a stage in my life where I frequently and accurately use the phrase \u201cdecades ago.\u201d More and more of my memories are of people no longer on the earth. Discarding items as we pack is reminding me of how much of my life is behind me.\nWhen I was an idealistic teenager, I desired to change the world. Music was (and still is) my passion. Music always helped me to feel closer to God, so I imagined somehow it would be through music that I would make the world a better place.\nOver the years, that aspiration has ebbed and flowed. It was exceptionally strong after the birth of my daughter, Marissa. I wanted her to live in a perfect world. Of course, since this planet is not heaven, that is not possible.\nMarissa is 25 now. I have proven I do not have much of an influence in the overall scheme of life.\nI realize that God is not calling me to greatness as the world measures greatness. He is not calling me to change the world in the ways I had always envisioned. Still, He IS calling me to grow in holiness. As I look back at my life, I see some areas where I think I did well and others where I need forgiveness.\nI believe I was at my best in serving God when I took care of my parents and my husband\u2019s mom in their last years and as they were dying. My mother-in-law was the last of them to pass. She died in 2014. Since then, though I have kept busy, I am wondering if I am at all useful to Him. I am still walking the earth, so presume there is a purpose for me. Maybe it is as simple as a gracious Creator giving me more time to grow in holiness.\nSometimes at Mass, I find myself thinking about the years we have worshipped at this parish. I think about the faces I used to see and notice the newer ones. The building has been renovated, but in my mind, I can still see the leaky roofs and the old confessional. I recall the various priests we have had during those years. Some would say a lot has changed.\nSometimes I consider the history of the Church in general. During Mass, I might find myself thinking about all who have gone before and all who will come after me, both as worshippers and celebrants. At times I even wonder who has sat where I am sitting, and who will be sitting there 100 years from now. I note the ritual of the centuries, taking comfort in the unchanging Mass.\nThis weekend I went to Mass specifically on Saturday evening to say goodbye to my friend Carol. She is also leaving the area. Her husband accepted a job several states away. Carol does not have family here like my husband and I do, so she does not expect to be back. I will likely not see her again this side of heaven.\nYes, I cried. So did she.\nIn my emotional state of mind, I looked for old friends. It was not long before I spotted Dennis, who told me years ago that he does not receive Eucharist because he does not believe in the divinity of Jesus. I rejoice and praise God to see that this has changed.\nA bit further away sat Kathy, whose husband, also a friend, died of cancer several years ago. Her son was with her. Until recently he lived out of town, so I had not seen him in awhile. I remember when he was a very young altar server. Once again I paraphrase Sunrise, Sunset: \u201cWasn\u2019t it yesterday when he was small?\u201d\nThen there was Mary, whose daughter died in 2006, a few months after my mother. One night five years later, Mary and I were talking. I told her I think of her often. I commented that I could not imagine how she gets through every day. She replied that \u201cgetting through\u201d each day is all she does. She takes it one step at a time. Mary also related to me that prayer is what keeps her going.\nWhen we move, I will learn new names and the stories that belong to the new face. Yet some things stay constant. The Mass is still the Mass.\nRecently my husband and I went to lunch with some friends. On one wall, the restaurant featured the poem The Dash, by Linda Ellis. It is a famous poem that you likely have already heard. The Dash speaks of the life lived between your date of birth and date of death, represented by a dash on your tombstone.\nIt seemed an appropriate reminder at this time in my life. I seem to have time left between those dates. Is there something more God has planned for me? How would I know?\nI need to keep reminding myself that God makes use of older people all the time. One of my favorite women in Scripture is the prophetess Anna, who \u201cnever left the temple, but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer.\u201d (Luke 2:37, NABRE.) This is faithfulness. Saint Matthew could have used her as an example when he wrote: \u201cFor where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.\u201d (Matthew 6:21, NABRE.)\nThe prophetess Anna shows me where to start if I want to continue to serve God well. Prayer is the first step. It is how we align ourselves with God. I know I need regular, scheduled prayer time to keep from slipping spiritually. At one time in my life, I used to say I prayed all day, but that prayer was generally while I was in the midst of doing things. There is nothing wrong with that. Indeed, it is a good thing. Yet if we only pray as we are busy, how do we quiet ourselves to listen?\nWithout a plan, my prayer life is going to decline. I can say that God is important to me, but what good are words without action? My actions will show my priorities.\nMass is a big part of my daily prayer where I currently live. That will change. I go to Mass at noon now, but most daily Masses in my new area are in the morning.\nAs an insomniac, morning Mass does not work for me. I have tried. One morning I attended an early Mass with a friend one morning, and afterward, she turned to me and said, \u201cHow did you like the priest?\u201d What she meant was \u201cHow did you like the homily?\u201d I told her I had no opinion because I had not heard it. It was all I could do to stay awake for that half hour.\nThankfully, I found a parish near our new home that offers noon Mass once a week. It also provides Adoration once a week. I plan to put both of those on my schedule.\nFor the rest of the week, I will pray at home. We are using one of the bedrooms as both a prayer room and a music room since the two seem to go so well together. I can go to that room at noon, the same time I always went to daily Mass.\nMusic is still as important to me as it ever was. It continues to move me to God in a way I cannot describe. I plan to schedule a regular time to play my clarinet and maybe learn guitar or other instruments. My daughter and I have spoken of the possibility of finding places to be involved in music. After all, we will be living near \u201cMusic City\u201d \u2013Nashville, TN. I have wondered if God is giving me the opportunity to renew an old love. I would be especially delighted to perform with Marissa one day.\nRecently I heard a homily about trust. Maybe, rather than straining to hear God\u2019s voice, I need to trust that I will be where He wants me even if I do not realize it. It could be that God is showing me the importance of faithfulness. I imagine it is even possible that in coming to this conclusion, I have heard the still, small voice of God.\nfaithfulness, God's voice, trust\nPrevPreviousJesus, the Bible, and Christ\u2019s Influence on History\nNextIntoleranceNext",

        "raw_content": "Easier, Earlier FAFSA from Obama\nPosted on October 19, 2015 by Lau\nNews about financial aid By Laura Taveras\nFor decades the process of applying for financial aid has prevented many students from applying, entering, and staying in college.\nOn September 14, President Obama along with Arne Duncan, his secretary of education, announced significant changes to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), for 2017-2018. These changes allow students to apply earlier, and make the application process faster. Students will have access to the application by October 1, 2016. Those interested in federal aid will also have the option of using tax information from two years prior. This allows the IRS-data retrieval tool to use archived information to populate most of the application!\nStudents, parents, and college administration at the City College of New York have expressed excited about this! Laura-Liisa Nanits, 22, an environmental chemistry major at CCNY, likes that she doesn\u2019t have to spend time going through the application. \u201cI hate having to go line-by-line to check everything, it\u2019s annoying,\u201d states Nanits. \u201cPush a button and I am DONE.\u201d\nDeysi Mercado, parent of a CCNY college senior, appreciates this initiative and thinks other parents will too. \u201cI am always the last to get my W2 at work, so I don\u2019t get to file my taxes until later,\u201d states Mercado. \u201cShe\u2019s [her daughter] always bugging me to do my taxes. I am glad that, I, and other parents, will have more leeway.\u201d\nThe financial aid office embraces these new changes. \u201cIf it\u2019s good for the students, it\u2019s good for us,\u201d says Shellye Belton, deputy director of the financial aid office at CCNY. The administration appreciates the correctness in data that these changes will bring. Students have projected income information, and this created a lot discrepancies. \u201cIn the past students predicted information\u2026Now the FASFA will be accurate from the beginning,\u201d adds Belton.\nThis comes shortly after the president announced a new college ranking system, which also aids students in the college application process. In his State of the Union Address Obama made a promise he seems to be keeping\u2013helping America\u2019s youth afford college. He stated, \u201c\u2026[H]helping working families feel more secure in a world of constant change. That means helping folks afford childcare, college, health care, a home, retirement.\u201d\nRead More: Obama\u2019s address, the FASFA website, and the announcement about the new guidelines!",

These analogies will fly better with the basketball crowd, but they're still edifying to anyone.\nKobe Bryant On 'Em from Sho Baraka addresses the difficulties and opposition that Christians face each day, as a result of the fallen state of this world, as we strive to give God glory and make him famous, even in settings as common as our workplaces. And, since we've been given the power of the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 3:14-19), we are strengthened, allowing us to persevere through opposition. The power, strength and skill that Kobe Bryant possesses to make his defenders look silly is a loose parallel to the power that we have in Christ when being \"defended\" by those who do not see Christ as Savior. Sho explains it some more here.\nYou can get this song for free on Sho Baraka's Barakaology mixtape, from Reach Records. Download it; it's pretty good.\nThis was just some fun that Sho was having with K-Drama, another rapper, creating a little debate on whether Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant is the better player. This shows that Christians can use their gifts to glorify God, share Christ, and still have some fun at the same time. Jordan will probably always be the better player, but I think Sho's song features a better delivery. Either way, let us all Air Jordan or Kobe Bryant on 'em all the time.\nAnd, just a fun video, the best NCAA Tournament Buzzer Beaters. My Spartans didn't make the cut for their buzzer beater in 2010 against Maryland, but there are some great clips here.\nI will also be volunteering down at the NBA's Jam Session fan experience for the weekend. It'll be a great way to serve the City of Houston and our visitors coming to Houston to attend the game. I may post some thoughts about my experience within the next few days.\nInteresting Articles from the Past Week:\nIn the theme of Valentine's Day; The Truth About Marital Compatibility by Phil Smidt and Fighting for Your Joy on Valentines Day by Chris Smith\nWednesday's Word from Paul Tripp, addressing our Identity Amnesia, and how worship is its cure.\nAnd, just for fun; here's a look at what would happen if an asteroid hit Houston.\nLabels: Kobe Bryant, NBA, Reach Records, Sho Baraka",

        "title": "Company Liquidation - How do I liquidate my company?",
        "raw_content": "The most common way of closing a company with serious financial difficulties is by placing the company into liquidation. Although liquidating a company is a relatively straight forward process, there are numerous issues that need to be addressed to ensure that this process is carried out correctly. We have therefore set out below a summary of the most frequently asked questions and answers.\nFirstly, you need to be satisfied that liquidating your company is the most appropriate option. There are a number of options available for dealing with companies in financial difficulties, and we would recommend that before making a final decision you seek experienced professional advice from someone like ourselves.\nIf liquidation is the only option, then you will need to speak with a Licenced Insolvency Practitioner \u2013 only a licenced practitioner can act as a liquidator. The Insolvency Practitioner will explain the steps involved in actually placing the company into liquidation.\nWhat is the company liquidation process?\nOnce it has been decided that company liquidation is the most appropriate solution, the company will need to convene a meeting of its directors. At this meeting, certain resolutions will be passed, recognising the company\u2019s insolvent position and arranging to convene a meeting of the company\u2019s shareholders and the company\u2019s creditors. We will produce all of the relevant resolutions, notices and paperwork required to start the process of liquidating your company.\nWhat notices are required to be given to creditors and employees?\nAfter our initial meeting with you, we will have collected all the relevant information to assist you with the process of liquidating your company. Immediately after the director\u2019s meeting has been finished, we will then deal with notifying all of your creditors and all of your employees. Your creditors will receive a notice convening a meeting of creditors which must be held at no less than 9 days\u2019 notice after the director\u2019s meeting and no more than 28 days after that meeting.\nWe will also speak with all of your employees explaining why the company is going into liquidation and we will assist them in claiming their rights and entitlements from the Redundancy Payments Office.\nWhat happens in the period between the director\u2019s meeting and the meeting of creditors?\nAs a director, you are still responsible for all of the company\u2019s actions during this period, although in reality, any decisions that need to be taken during this period will usually be after being advised as to what to do by the insolvency Practitioner.\nCan the company sell assets before the creditor\u2019s meeting?\nOne the decision to liquidate the company has been taken, and the board resolutions passed, the company is effectively moth balled, until the outcome of the creditors\u2019 meeting. During the period between the director\u2019s meeting and the creditor\u2019s meeting, the only time that trading would continue, would be to either finish off work in progress with the agreement of the customer to pay, or to dispose of perishable items that would otherwise diminish in value.\nHow is the liquidator appointed?\nMost company liquidations use a process known as Creditor Voluntary Liquidation. The directors of the company to be liquidated chose an Insolvency Practitioner to help them get the process of liquidation underway. The shareholders and creditors will then vote on the director\u2019s choice at their respective meetings. The shareholder\u2019s meeting usually takes place half an hour before the creditor\u2019s meeting \u2013 these meetings are after the minimum 9 day notice period following the director\u2019s meeting.\nIf a majority of the creditors decide to appoint a different insolvency practitioner, then so long as the creditor\u2019s majority is over 50% of the creditor\u2019s claims in value, the creditors\u2019 choice will be appointed. It is fairly unusual for this to happen though \u2013 it is more likely to happen in larger cases.\nWhat happens at the creditor\u2019s meeting?\nBy law, one director must attend the creditor\u2019s meeting and act as chair person. The purpose of the creditor\u2019s meeting is to receive a report on the history of the company in liquidation, to be presented with a statement of affairs and to ask the directors any questions that the creditors see fit on the conduct of the directors.\nAlthough a director will formally act as chairperson, it is the insolvency practitioner that will deal with the presentation of the history, the statement of affairs and any other matters that are deemed relevant.\nOnce all the questions have been dealt with, various resolutions are then put to the creditors to vote on. These include:\nConfirmation of the resolutions passed by the shareholders -i.e. the company is insolvent and should be placed into creditor\u2019s voluntary liquidation\nA resolution confirming the appointment of the named insolvency practitioner as liquidator\nResolutions allowing the liquidator to appoint agents to help with the disposal of the company\u2019s assets and the appointment of solicitors if necessary.\nA resolution dealing with how the liquidator\u2019s costs will be paid.\nWhen is a liquidator formally appointed?\nAlthough you will bring in an insolvency practitioner to help you decide whether liquidating your company is the correct approach, and the insolvency practitioner will help you with the process of preparing for liquidation, the practitioner is only formally appointed at the creditors\u2019 meeting.\nCan a director buy back the company assets?\nThe simple answer is \u2013 YES \u2013 so long as the director\u2019s offer is the highest received.\nHow are the company assets sold?\nAs part of the process in preparing to liquidate your company, the insolvency practitioner will arrange for the company assets to be professionally valued by a reputable firm of valuers \u2013 this usually happens on the day of the director\u2019s meeting or very shortly thereafter. The agents will attend the company\u2019s premises and produce a full inventory of all assets and a valuation based on both a going concern basis and a break up basis. No assets should be sold until after the creditor\u2019s meeting. The insolvency practitioner may though, in conjunction with his agents speak to potentially interested parties prior to the creditor\u2019s meeting to try and increase the value of any potential offers.\nThe Liquidator, once appointed is under a statutory duty to maximise the realisations from the sale of the company\u2019s assets \u2013 if that means selling them back to the directors, even if the creditors are unhappy with that decision, then that is what must be done.\nWhat does it cost to put a company into liquidation?\nThere is no set fee for liquidating a company. The liquidator must by law keep detailed records of all time spent on each liquidation and it is usual for the liquidator to seek a resolution at the creditor\u2019s meeting, that his costs are paid on a time cost basis. In October 2015 additional provisions were brought into force in respect of liquidator\u2019s fees. In all creditor voluntary liquidations, the liquidator must now set out details of the estimated costs of dealing with all aspects of the liquidation at the creditors meeting and seek the creditor\u2019s approval to that estimate.\nIn the event that the liquidator\u2019s costs exceed the original estimate approved by the creditors, then the additional costs can only be paid if the creditors agree to them.\nWho pays the liquidator\u2019s fees?\nIn most cases, the liquidator\u2019s fees and costs are paid out of asset realisations.\nCan I ask for a quote to liquidate my company?\nOf course \u2013 here at Corporate Financial Solutions, we pride ourselves, not only on the exceptional standard of professionalism, care and attention given to each case, but also on our ability to be extremely cost effective. We would need some very basic information on the company to be liquidated \u2013 simply call us on 0115 838 7330 or email us at info@cfs-llp.com.\nInstant CVL Cost Quote\nFor an instant quote for creditors voluntary liquidation, without the need to send your details, use our creditors voluntary liquidation cost calculator.\nCompany Liquidation Advice\nWe are happy to give company liquidation advice.

        "title": "Intermolecular_force",
        "raw_content": "Intermolecular_force\nIntermolecular force\nIn physics, chemistry, and biology, intermolecular forces are forces that act between stable molecules or between functional groups of macromolecules. Intermolecular forces (aka van der Waal's forces) include momentary attractions between molecules, diatomic free elements, and individual atoms. They differ from covalent and ionic bonding in that they are not stable, but are caused by momentary polarization of particles. Because electrons have no fixed position in the structure of an atom or molecule, but rather are distributed in a probabilistic fashion based on quantum probability, there is a positive chance that the electrons are not evenly distributed and thus their electrical charges are not evenly distributed. See Schrodinger Equation for the theories on wave functions and descriptions of position and velocity of quantum particles.\nIn general one distinguishes short and long range van der Waal's forces. The former are due to intermolecular exchange and charge penetration. They fall off exponentially as a function of intermolecular distance R and are repulsive for interacting closed-shell systems. In chemistry they are well known, because they give rise to steric hindrance, also known as Born or Pauli repulsion. Long range forces fall off with inverse powers of the distance, R-n, typically 3 \u2264 n \u2264 10, and are mostly attractive.\nThe sum of long and short range forces gives rise to a minimum, referred to as Van der Waal minimum. The position and depth of the Van der Waal's minimum depends on distance and mutual orientation of the molecules.\n1.1 Perturbation theory\n1.2 Supermolecular approach\n3 Electrostatic interactions\n3.1 Multipole expansion\n3.3 Dipole-dipole interactions\n3.4 Hydrogen bonding\n4 London dispersion forces\n5 Quantum mechanical theory of dispersion forces\n6 Anisotropy and non-additivity of intermolecular forces\nThis is because before the advent of quantum mechanics the origin of intermolecular forces was not well understood. Especially the causes of hard sphere repulsion, postulated by Van der Waals, and the possibility of the liquefaction of noble gases were difficult to understand. Soon after the formulation of quantum mechanics, however, all open questions regarding intermolecular forces were answered, first by S.C. Wang and then more completely and thoroughly by Fritz London.\nThe quantum mechanical basis for the majority of intermolecular effects is contained in a nonrelativistic energy operator, the molecular Hamiltonian. This operator consists only of kinetic energies and Coulomb interactions. Usually one applies the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and considers the electronic (clamped nuclei) Hamilton operator only. For very long intermolecular distances the retardation of the Coulomb force (first considered in 1948 for intermolecular forces by Hendrik Casimir and Dirk Polder) may have to be included. Sometimes, e.g., for interacting paramagnetic or electronically excited molecules, electronic spin and other magnetic effects may play a role. In this article, however, retardation and magnetic effects will not be considered.\nWe will distinguish four fundamental interactions:\nThe last three of the fundamental interactions are most naturally accounted for by Rayleigh-Schr\u00f6dinger perturbation theory (RS-PT). In this theory\u2014applied to two monomers A and B\u2014one uses as unperturbed Hamiltonian the sum of two monomer Hamiltonians,\nwhile the perturbation is\nwhere qi indicates the charge (in units e of elementary charge) of a particle of monomer A; qj belongs to monomer B. For electrons we take q = -1, for a nucleus we take q equal to its atomic number Z. The quantity rij is the distance between particle i and particle j. In this equation and further in this article atomic units are used. Perturbation theory is based on expansions of perturbed states in terms of unperturbed states (eigenstates of H(0)). In the present case the unperturbed states are products\nSupermolecular approach\nThe early theoretical work on intermolecular forces was invariably based on RS-PT and its antisymmetrized variants. However, since the beginning of the 1990s it has become possible to apply standard quantum chemical methods to pairs of molecules. This approach is referred to as the supermolecule method. In order to obtain reliable results one must include electronic correlation in the supermolecule method (without it dispersion is not accounted for at all), and take care of the basis set superposition error. This is the effect that the atomic orbital basis of one molecule improves the basis of the other. Since this improvement is distance dependent, it gives easily rise to artefacts.\nSupermolecule calculations must be performed with very high precision, because the problem, known as weighing the captain, arises here. First we weigh the ship with the captain aboard (total energy of molecules in interaction) and then we weigh the ship with the captain ashore (total energy of molecules at an infinite distance apart); the difference gives the captain's weight. This parable is due to the late Charles Coulson. To understand it we must remember that the total energy of molecules is six to seven orders of magnitude larger than a typical intermolecular interaction. That is, the significant digits in the results of supermolecule calculations start to appear beyond the sixth or seventh decimal place.\nA disadvantage of the supermolecule method is that it yields the interaction as a lump sum. It does not give an interaction energy separated in the four fundamental contributions mentioned above. Therefore, we shall not discuss the supermolecule method any further in this article.\nThe monomer functions \u03a6nA and \u03a6mB are antisymmetric under permutation of electron coordinates (i.e., they satisfy the Pauli principle), but the product states are not antisymmetric under intermolecular exchange of the electrons. An obvious way to proceed would be to introduce the intermolecular antisymmetrizer . But, as already noticed in 1930 by Eisenschitz and London,[1] this causes two major problems. In the first place the antisymmetrized unperturbed states are no longer eigenfunctions of H(0), which follows from the non-commutation\nIn the second place the projected excited states\nbecome linearly dependent and the choice of a linearly independent subset is not apparent. In the late 1960s the Eisenschitz-London approach was revived and different rigorous variants of symmetry adapted perturbation theory were developed. (The word symmetry refers here to permutational symmetry of electrons). The different approaches shared a major drawback: they were very difficult to apply in practice. Hence a somewhat less rigorous approach (weak symmetry forcing) was introduced: apply ordinary RS-PT and introduce the intermolecular antisymmetrizer at appropriate places in the RS-PT equations. This approach leads to feasible equations, and, when electronically correlated monomer functions are used, weak symmetry forcing is known to give reliable results.[2][3]\nThe first-order (most important) energy including exchange is in almost all symmmetry-adapted perturbation theories given by the following expression\nThe main difference between covalent and non-covalent forces is the sign of this expression. In the case of chemical bonding this interaction is attractive (for certain electron-spin state, usually spin-singlet) and responsible for large bonding energies\u2014on the order of a hundred kcal/mol. In the case of intermolecular forces between closed shell systems, the interaction is strongly repulsive and responsible for the \"volume\" of the molecule (see Van der Waals radius). Roughly speaking, the exchange interaction is proportional to the differential overlap between \u03a60A and \u03a60B. Since the wavefunctions decay exponentially as a function of distance, the exchange interaction does too. Hence the range of action is relatively short, which is why exchange interactions are referred to as short range interactions.\nBy definition the electrostatic interaction is given by the first-order Rayleigh-Schr\u00f6dinger perturbation (RS-PT) energy (without exchange):\nLet the clamped nucleus \u03b1 on A have position vector R\u03b1, then its charge times the Dirac delta function, Z\u03b1 \u03b4(r-R\u03b1), is the charge density of this nucleus. The total charge density of monomer A is given by\nwith the electronic charge density given by an integral over nA - 1 primed electron coordinates:\nAn analogous definition holds for the charge density of monomer B. It can be shown that the first-order quantum mechanical expression can be written as\nwhich is nothing but the classical expression for the electrostatic interaction between two charge distributions. This shows that the first-order RS-PT energy is indeed equal to the electrostatic interaction between A and B.\nMultipole expansion\nAt present it is feasible to compute the electrostatic energy without any further approximations other than those applied in the computation of the monomer wavefunctions. In the past this was different and a further approximation was commonly introduced: VAB was expanded in a (truncated) series in inverse powers of the intermolecular distance R. This yields the multipole EXPANSION of the electrostatic energy. Since its concepts still pervade the theory of intermolecular forces, we will present it here. In this article the following expansion is proved\nwith the Clebsch-Gordan series defined by\nand the irregular solid harmonic is defined by\nThe function YL,M is a normalized spherical harmonic, while and are spherical multipole moment operators. This expansion is manifestly in powers of 1/RAB.\nInsertion of this expansion into the first-order (without exchange) expression gives a very similar expansion for the electrostatic energy, because the matrix element factorizes,\nwith the permanent multipole moments defined by\nWe see that the series is of infinite length, and, indeed, most molecules have an infinite number of non-vanishing multipoles. In the past, when computer calculations for the permanent moments were not yet feasible, it was common to truncate this series after the first non-vanishing term.\nWhich term is non-vanishing, depends very much on the symmetry of the molecules constituting the dimer. For instance, molecules with an inversion center such as a homonuclear diatomic (e.g., molecular nitrogen N2), or an organic molecule like ethene (C2H4) do not posses a permanent dipole moment (l=1), but do carry a quadrupole moment (l=2). Molecules such a hydrogen chloride (HCl) and water (H2O) lack an inversion center and hence do have a permanent dipole. So, the first non-vanishing electrostatic term in, e.g., the N2\u2014H2O dimer, is the lA=2, lB=1 term. From the formula above follows that this term contains the irregular solid harmonic of order L = lA + lB = 3, which has an R-4 dependence. But in this dimer the quadrupole-quadrupole interaction (R-5) is not unimportant either, because the water molecule carries a non-vanishing quadrupole as well.\nWhen computer calculations of permanent multipole moments of any order became possible, the matter of the convergence of the multipole series became urgent. It can be shown that, if the charge distributions of the two monomers overlap, the multipole expansion is formally divergent.\nIt is debatable whether ionic interactions are to be seen as intermolecular forces, some workers consider them rather as special kind of chemical bonding. The forces occur between charged atoms or molecules (ions). Ionic bonds are formed when the difference between the electron affinity of one monomer and the ionization potential of the other is so large that electron transfer from the one monomer to the other is energetically favorable. Since a transfer of an electron is never complete there is always a degree of covalent bonding.\nOnce the ions (of opposite sign) are formed, the interaction between them can seen as a special case of multipolar attraction, with a 1/RAB distance dependence. Indeed, the ionic interaction is the electrostatic term with lA = 0 and lB = 0. Using that the irregular harmonics for L = 0 is simply\nand that the monopole moments and their Clebsch-Gordan coupling are\n(where qA and qB are the charges of the molecular ions) we recover\u2014as to be expected\u2014Coulomb's law\nFor shorter distances, where the charge distributions of the monomers overlap, the ions will repel each other because of inter-monomer exchange of the electrons.\nIonic compounds have high melting and boiling points due to the large amount of energy required to break the forces between the charged ions. When molten they are also good conductors of heat and electricity, due to the free or delocalised ions.\nDipole-dipole interactions, also called Keesom interactions or Keesom forces after Willem Hendrik Keesom, who produced the first mathematical description in 1921, are the forces that occur between two molecules with permanent dipoles. They result from the dipole-dipole interaction between two molecules. An example of this can be seen in hydrochloric acid:\nThe molecules are depicted here as two point dipoles. A point dipole is an idealization similar to a point charge (a finite charge in an infinitely small volume). A point dipole consists of two equal charges of opposite sign \u03b4+ and \u03b4-, which are a distance d apart. This distance d is so small that at any distance R from the point dipole it can be assumed that d/R >> (d/R)2. In this idealization the electrostatic field outside the charge distribution consists of one (R-3) term only, see this article. The electrostatic interaction between two point dipoles is given by the single term lA = 1 and lB = 1 in the expansion above.\nObviously, no molecule is an ideal point dipole, and in the case of the HCl dimer, for instance, dipole-quadrupole, quadrupole-quadrupole, etc. interactions are by no means negligible (and neither are induction or dispersion interactions).\nNote that almost always the dipole-dipole interaction between two atoms is zero, because atoms rarely carry a permanent dipole, see atomic dipoles.\nand similarly for B, we get the well-known expression\nAs a numerical example we consider the HCl dimer depicted above. We assume that the left molecule is A and the right B, so that the z-axis is along the molecules and points to the right. Our (physical) convention of the dipole moment is such that it points from negative to positive charge. Note parenthetically that in organic chemistry the opposite convention is used. Since organic chemists hardly ever perform vector computations with dipoles, confusion hardly ever arises. In organic chemistry dipoles are mainly used as a measure of charge separation in a molecule. So,\nThe value of \u03bcHCl is 0.43 (atomic units), so that at a distance of 10 bohr the dipole-dipole attraction is -3.698 10-4 hartree (-0.97 kJ/mol).\nIf one of the molecules is neutral and freely rotating, the total electrostatic interaction energy becomes zero. (For the dipole-dipole interaction this is most easily proved by integrating over the spherical polar angles of the dipole vector, while using the volume element sin\u03b8 d\u03b8d\u03c6). In gases and liquids molecules are not rotating completely freely\u2014the rotation is weighted by the Boltzmann factor exp(-Edip-dip/kT), where k is the Boltzmann constant and T the absolute temperature. It was first shown by Lennard-Jones[4] that the temperature-averaged dipole-dipole interaction is\nSince the averaged energy has an R-6 dependence, it is evidently much weaker than the unaveraged one, but it is not completely zero. It is attractive, because the Boltzmann weighting favors somewhat the attractive regions of space. In HCl-HCl we find for T = 300 K and RAB = 10 bohr the averaged attraction -62 J/mol, which shows a weakening of the interaction by a factor of about 16 due to thermal rotational motion.\nMain article: Hydrogen bond\nHydrogen bonding is an intermolecular interaction with a hydrogen atom being present in the intermolecular bond. This hydrogen is covalently (chemically) bound in one molecule, which acts as the proton donor. The other molecule acts as the proton acceptor. In the following important example of the water dimer, the water molecule on the right is the proton donor, while the one on the left is the proton acceptor:\nThe hydrogen atom participating in the hydrogen bond is often covalently bound in the donor to an electronegative atom. Examples of such atoms are nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine. The electronegative atom is negatively charged (carries a charge \u03b4-) and the hydrogen atom bound to it is positively charged. Consequently the proton donor is a polar molecule with a relatively large dipole moment. Often the positively charged hydrogen atom points towards an electron rich region in the acceptor molecule. The fact that an electron rich region exists in the acceptor molecule, implies already that the acceptor has a relatively large dipole moment as well. The result is a dimer that to a large extent is bound by the dipole-dipole force.\nFor quite some time it was believed that hydrogen bonding required an explanation that was different from the other intermolecular interactions. However, reliable computer calculations that became possible during the 1980s have shown that only the four effects listed above play a role, with the dipole-dipole interaction being particularly important. Since the four effects account completely for the bonding in small dimers like the water dimer, for which highly accurate calculations are feasible, it is now generally believed that no other bonding effects are operative.\nHydrogen bonds are found throughout nature. They give water its unique properties that are so important to life on earth. Hydrogen bonds between hydrogen atoms and nitrogen atoms of adjacent base pairs provide the intermolecular force that help more precisely bind together the two strands in a molecule of DNA. Hydrophobic effects between the double-stranded DNA and the surrounding aqueous environment, however, are more important in maintaining the DNA in its double stranded form.\nAlso called London forces, instantaneous dipole (or multipole) effects (spatially variable \u03b4+) or Van der Waals forces, these involve the attraction between temporarily induced dipoles in nonpolar molecules (often disappear within an instant). This polarization can be induced either by a polar molecule or by the repulsion of negatively charged electron clouds in nonpolar molecules. An example of the former is chlorine dissolving in water:\n(+)(-)(+)  (-) (+)\n[Permanent Dipole] H-O-H-----Cl-Cl [Induced Dipole]\nNote added by other author: Sketched is an interaction between the permanent dipole on water and an induced dipole on chlorine. The latter dipole is induced by the electric field offered by the permanent dipole of water (see field from an electric dipole).\nThis permanent dipole-induced dipole interaction is referred to as induction (or polarization) interaction and is to be distinguished from the London dispersion interaction. The latter is sometimes described as an interaction between two instantaneous dipoles, see molecular dipole. The Cl2\u2014Cl2 interaction that now follows is an example of a proper London dispersion interaction.\n(+) (-)    (+) (-)\n[instantaneous dipole] Cl-Cl------Cl-Cl [instantaneous dipole]\nNote added by other author: It must be pointed out that the London interaction is not the only interaction between two chlorine molecules in the region where the overlap between the respective charge distributions may be neglected. Each chlorine molecule carries permanent multipole moments of even order, the first one being a permanent quadrupole moment (order 2). The interaction between two permanent multipole moments also contributes to the intermolecular force and the first term (quadrupole-quadrupole) is as important as the London dispersion force.\nLondon dispersion forces exist between all atoms. London forces are the only reason for rare-gas atoms to condense at low temperature.\nQuantum mechanical theory of dispersion forces\nThe first explanation of the attraction between noble gas atoms was given by Fritz London in 1930.[5] He used a quantum mechanical theory based on second-order perturbation theory. The perturbation is the Coulomb interaction V between the electrons and nuclei of the two monomers (atoms or molecules) that constitute the dimer. The second-order perturbation expression of the interaction energy contains a sum over states. The states appearing in this sum are simple products of the excited electronic states of the monomers. Thus, no intermolecular antisymmetrization of the electronic states is included and the Pauli exclusion principle is only partially satisfied.\nLondon developed the perturbation V in a Taylor series in , where R is the distance between the nuclear centers of mass of the monomers.\nThis Taylor expansion is known as the multipole expansion of V because the terms in this series can be regarded as energies of two interacting multipoles, one on each monomer. Substitution of the multipole-expanded form of V into the second-order energy yields an expression that resembles somewhat an expression describing the interaction between instantaneous multipoles (see the qualitative description above). Additionally an approximation, named after Albrecht Uns\u00f6ld, must be introduced in order to obtain a description of London dispersion in terms of dipole polarizabilities and ionization potentials.\nIn this manner the following approximation is obtained for the dispersion interaction between two atoms A and B. Here \u03b1A and \u03b1B are the dipole polarizabilities of the respective atoms. The quantities IA and IB are the first ionization potentials of the atoms and R is the intermolecular distance.\nNote that this final London equation does not contain instantaneous dipoles (see molecular dipoles). The \"explanation\" of the dispersion force as the interaction between two such dipoles was invented after London gave the proper quantum mechanical theory. See the authoritative work[6] for a criticism of the instantaneous dipole model and[7] for a modern and thorough exposition of the theory of intermolecular forces.\nThe London theory has much similarity to the quantum mechanical theory of light dispersion, which is why London coined the phrase \"dispersion effect\" for the interaction that we described in this lemma.\nAnisotropy and non-additivity of intermolecular forces\nConsider the interaction between two electric point charges at position and . By Coulomb's law the interaction potential depends only on the distance between the particles. For molecules this is different. If we see a molecule as a rigid 3-D body, it has 6 degrees of freedom (3 degrees for its orientation and 3 degrees for its position in R3). The interaction energy of two molecules (a dimer) in isotropic and homogeneous space is in general a function of 2\u00d76\u22126=6 degrees of freedom (by the homogeneity of space the interaction does not depend on the position of the center of mass of the dimer, and by the isotropy of space the interaction does not depend on the orientation of the dimer). The analytic description of the interaction of two arbitrarily shaped rigid molecules requires therefore 6 parameters. (One often uses two Euler angles per molecule, plus a dihedral angle, plus the distance.) The fact that the intermolecular interaction depends on the orientation of the molecules is expressed by stating that the potential is anisotropic. Since point charges are by definition spherical symmetric, their interaction is isotropic. Especially in the older literature, intermolecular interactions are regularly assumed to be isotropic (e.g., the potential is described in Lennard-Jones form, which depends only on distance).\nConsider three arbitrary point charges at distances r12, r13, and r23 apart. The total interaction U is additive; i.e., it is the sum\nU = u(r12) + u(r13) + u(r23).\nAgain for molecules this can be different. Pretending that the interaction depends on distances only\u2014but see above\u2014the interaction of three molecules takes in general the form\nU = u(r12) + u(r13) + u(r23) + u(r12,r13,r23),\nwhere u(r12,r13,r23) is a non-additive three-body interaction. Such an interaction can be caused by exchange interactions, by induction, and by dispersion (the Axilrod-Teller triple dipole effect).\n^ R. Eisenschitz and F.

        "raw_content": "Brisbane's changing landscape\nGreater Brisbane Area is booming with over $13 billion in infrastructure projects currently under construction (Deloitte Access Economics, Investment Monitor, September 2014). The opportunity for sustainable development and investment has never been better.\nExceptional infrastructure program\nWith cranes dominating Brisbane\u2019s skyline and barges regularly traversing our river, residents and visitors are constantly reminded that Brisbane is a city on the move \u2013 embracing necessary and progressive change as major developments occur in both the public and private arenas. Brisbane is committed to an ambitious vision for the future and these vital investments in critical infrastructure are changing the city landscape in new and exciting ways. Queensland\u2019s average infrastructure spend over the past 10 years is 75 per cent higher than the combined average of other states and territories at $1021 per capita (Source: Queensland Infrastructure Plan, 2011).\nBrisbane Airport (BNE) is one of Australia\u2019s fastest-growing passenger and freight airports. It is recognised as the centre of the aviation and aerospace industry for Queensland and Australia and a key driver in the long-term growth of the state and national economies. Brisbane Airport Corporation is one of Queensland\u2019s largest private investors in infrastructure, investing more than $1.5 billion in the past 10 years, with a further $2.5 billion planned for the next decade. The construction of a new runway is currently underway at BNE. The $1.35 billion project will give BNE the most efficient runway system in Australian when complete in 2020 (Source: BNE, Major Projects, 2014).\nThe Port of Brisbane is one of Australia\u2019s fastest-growing, multi-cargo container ports and a major contributor to the Queensland economy. This world-class infrastructure asset handles about $50 billion worth of trade each year, including more than 50 per cent of Queensland\u2019s international trade. The Port of Brisbane has experienced significant growth in recent years. Continued and accelerated infrastructure development at the port and along its landside logistics chain will ensure it is capable of meeting future demand (Source: Port of Brisbane 2014).\nTimely, targeted, and adequate investment in infrastructure is essential for the Port of Brisbane to maintain its enviable position. Port of Brisbane Pty Ltd (PBPL) has committed to investing about $120 million per annum in capital investment over the next five years. In addition, planning and design has begun to undertake significant upgrade works to Port Drive and the Kite Street intersection at the Port of Brisbane. With an anticipated cost of about $110 million, these works will increase road capacity, deliver safety benefits, and improve supply chain efficiencies for users. Works are expected to begin in mid-2015 and are anticipated to take about two years to complete (Source: Port of Brisbane 2014).\nTo support future growth in trade and shipping, and demand for port-related commercial and industrial development, additional port land is progressively being reclaimed. A 230ha area known as the Future Port Expansion area will be gradually filled over 10 to 30 years with materials obtained from maintenance and capital dredging projects (Source: Port of Brisbane 2014).\nA key infrastructure project strongly supported by PBPL is the Inland Rail project \u2013 a dedicated freight rail network linking Melbourne to Brisbane, which will transform freight transport on the east coast. The Australian Rail Track Corporation has been tasked by the Federal Government to develop a plan for constructing inland rail over a staged, 10-year period, including detailed consideration of the most appropriate dedicated rail freight link to the Port of Brisbane. A dedicated freight rail connection to the Port of Brisbane will secure the port\u2019s future growth, productivity, and competitiveness (Source: Port of Brisbane 2014).\nBrisbane's Infrastructure Projects\nThe Queens Wharf is a multi-million dollar, world-class integrated resort development on the banks of the Brisbane River in the city\u2019s CBD is set to change the face of Brisbane. Queen's Wharf Brisbane will be an exhilarating, vibrant new world city development that attracts visitors and investment, reconnects the activity of the Brisbane city centre to the river, preserves and celebrates Brisbane's heritage, and delivers high-quality public spaces.\nBrisbane Airport (BNE) is recognised as the centre of the aviation and aerospace industry for Queensland and Australia and a key driver in the long-term growth of the state and national economies. It is estimated that by 2033-34, BNE will generate a $13.4 billion contribution to the Australian economy and support more than 88,000 jobs Australia-wide.\nHoward Smith Wharf\nBrisbane City Council has undertaken a series of restoration works at the Howard Smith Wharves site in readiness for its future development which will reactivate and re-energise this culturally important precinct. Construction of the new 170m timber wharf has been completed. The restoration captures the site's history as a working wharf. The cliffs surrounding the site have undergone stabilisation to ensure public safety and protect five World War II air raid shelters.\nThe Kingsford Smith Drive upgrade is another major council project that will reduce traffic congestion and improve safety in that corridor for all road users, including cyclists and pedestrians. Kingsford Smith Drive is a major road linking Brisbane CBD to the Brisbane Airport, Port of Brisbane, Northshore Hamilton, and the Australia TradeCoast area.",

Their highest yearly total was just $69,000 but that was before they heard about a relatively new consulting company based out of Toronto, Ontario that focused on one thing: 1 to 1 personal training. The year was 2000, and the consulting company they discovered was founded in 1998 by respected industry veteran Jeff Russo. The club took a leap of faith with Russo's Pro Fitness Program and PT sales have skyrocketed ever since. In 2017 the River Valley Club produced an outrageous $2.4 million in 1 to 1 training sales and remains the signature club that all facilities in the Pro Fitness Program network try to emulate. The club, which recently underwent an extensive renovation has over 2,500 members, 35 full-time Trainers and boosts a PT member penetration rate of over 35%.

        "raw_content": "Biometric ATM gives cash via 'finger vein' scan\nBy George Webster for CNN\nThe ATM runs on the latest in \"finger vein\" technology, with an infrared light detecting a unique pattern of micro-veins.\nNew ATM in Poland gives customers cash with just the touch of a fingertip\n\"Finger Vein\" technology is more secure method than scanning for fingerprints\nInstallation reflects pioneering attitude to information technology in Poland\n(CNN) -- Poland's cooperative BPS bank says it's the first in Europe to install a biometric ATM -- allowing customers to withdraw cash simply with the touch of a fingertip.\nThe digit-scanning ATM, introduced in the Polish capital of Warsaw, runs on the latest in \"finger vein\" technology -- an authentication system developed by Japanese tech giant Hitachi.\nThe company says that an infrared light is passed through the finger to detect a unique pattern of micro-veins beneath the surface - which is then matched with a pre-registered profile to verify an individual's identity.\n\"This is a substantially more reliable technique than using fingerprints,\" Peter Jones, Hitachi's head of security and solutions in Europe, told CNN.\n\"Our tests indicate there is a one in a million false acceptance rate -- that's as good as iris scanning, which is generally regarded as the most secure method.\"\nUnlike fingerprints, which leave a trace and can be potentially reproduced, finger veins are impossible to replicate, according to Jones, because they are beneath the surface of the skin.\n\"And before you ask, no -- it doesn't work with fingers that have been chopped off,\" he added.\nWhile the technology represents a step forward in reducing cases of identity fraud, Jones said that this is just one of many factors that have encouraged the Polish bank to adopt it.\nVideo: New technology helps impaired in Poland\nVideo: Poland's IT boom\n\"Here, banks have a responsibility to perform various social functions like dispensing welfare checks and pensions. These cause long queues at the cashier and many people find it inconvenient and even debilitating.\"\nBPS plans to install a biometric ATM at every one of its branches by the end of the year, where, says Jones -- who has worked with the bank for over three years -- they will also function as a collection terminal for state benefits.\nAlthough it is a first for Europe, biometric cash points have been embraced in other parts of the world for some years.\nAccording to business data analysts Bloomberg, the technology became particularly popular in Japan after the passing of legislation in 2006 that made banks liable for withdrawals by criminals using stolen or counterfeit bank cards.\nJones says that there are now over 80,000 biometric ATMs in Japan, currently used by more than 15 million customers.\nBefore you ask, no -- it doesn't work with fingers that have been chopped off\n--Peter Jones, head of security and solutions, Hitachi\nThe machines are also dotted around parts of Asia, Latin America, the Middle East and even parts of Africa -- where, according to banking analyst Stessa Cohen, they are preferred by rural workers living in remote areas, who are not accustomed to carrying bank cards.\nSo far though, the technology has failed to penetrate banking markets in the West. Cohen, who works for industry analysts Gartner, believes there are a number of data privacy issues that commercial banks have failed to address.\n\"If these banks are going to make biometrics an attractive proposition, they're going to have to start being much more transparent about what they do with their customer's personal data. They have to show that this type of sensitive information does not belong to them, but to us.\"\nFor Jones, however, a driving force behind the lackluster uptake in most western countries is due to a dearth of commercial incentives.\n\"It's generally the customer who foots the bill for fraud, and the banks have already factored that into their business model. Add to that the fact that it costs thousands of dollars to install a new ATM -- and it's just not worth it from their point of view.\"\nThe security and solutions expert believes that Poland's early adoption of biometric ATMs reflects the country's forward-thinking attitude to the role of information technology in society.\n\"It's no surprise that Poland is the first in Europe. They are one of the most proactive at addressing the challenges of the information age. When they host the EU presidency in 2012, they want to say to the world: 'Look at what we've achieved.'\"\nThe 30 million-strong nation in the heart of Europe boasts one of the fastest growing IT sectors in the region and has placed information technologies at the center of its plan for economic growth over the coming years.\nAs Kenechi Okeleke, IT and telecom analyst for Business Monitor International, told CNN: \"Poland's IT sector has performed really well in recent times. IT is a major focus for the government at the moment and they have adopted an IT Infrastructure Plan with money from the government and the European Union.\"\nDariusz Piotrowski, development director at Microsoft Poland, says that the key to the country's success in technology is a thriving student body focused on technological innovation.\nIn July this year Poland will host the Imagine Cup -- a highly competitive global tech competition for students, which regularly enjoys upwards of 300,000 entrants from over 100 countries.\nPoland's track-record in the competition has been exemplary.\n\"They stood on the podium 13 times, taking the first prize five times, second five times and third three times.\" Piotrowski told CNN. \"Polish students have succeeded in the categories such as Algorithm, Short Movie, Game Development, Photography, Embedded Development and Software Design.\"\nAnd as far as human-computer interaction goes, biometric ATMs are just the tip of the iceberg for students in Poland. Their entry for this year's Software Design category is a project titled \"InterPeter\" -- a breakthrough system that translates sign language into natural language and vice-versa.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Stock markets opening down in parts of the world: Financial volatilty expected for 2016\nSome Questions and Answers from Genesis \u00bb\nThe mosquito-transmitted Zika virus which is believed to have originated in Africa, is in Asia and South American and heading north:\nZika virus is spread to people through mosquito bites. The most common symptoms of Zika virus disease are fever, rash, joint pain, and conjunctivitis (red eyes). The illness is usually mild with symptoms lasting from several days to a week. \u2026\nThe virus you likely never heard of is steadily marching north from Brazil. It\u2019s Zika, spread by Aedes mosquitoes. It\u2019s a flavivirus related to yellow fever, West Nile, Chikungunya, and dengue. The latest two that hit the U.S., Chikungunya and dengue, are painful and bad enough\u2014and dengue can kill people who are infected more than once. Zika adds an added nasty punch of perhaps causing microcephaly\u2060, a birth defect where babies are born with abnormally small skulls and brains, and often have developmental abnormalities. \u2026\nThe biggest concern about Zika thus far is whether this virus is the cause of the surge in cases of microcephaly. To me, this seems likely, given the increase of these birth defects noted both in Fiji and in Brazil, corresponding with the outbreaks of Zika. There is no definitive proof yet\u2026but it is further evidence that there are now two cases of Zika virus being isolated from amniotic fluid, explaining how fetuses might become infected. There was another report from Brazil of Zika virus found in the blood and tissue of a newborn with microcephaly, who died within minutes of birth. http://www.forbes.com/sites/judystone/2016/01/04/zika-coming-to-america-through-mosquitoes-travel-and-sex/\nOutbreaks of Zika have occurred in areas of Africa, Southeast Asia, the Pacific Islands, and the Americas. Because the Aedes species mosquitoes that spread Zika virus are found throughout the world, it is likely that outbreaks will spread to new countries. In December 2015, Puerto Rico reported its first confirmed Zika virus case. Locally transmitted Zika has not been reported elsewhere in the United States, but cases of Zika have been reported in returning travelers.\nThere is no vaccine to prevent or medicine to treat Zika. Travelers can protect themselves from this disease by taking steps to prevent mosquito bites. http://www.cdc.gov/zika/\nThere are many mosquito-transmitted infections. Some are more likely to be pestilential than others.\nThe old WCG published the following about disease:\nParallel prophecies found in the Old Testament clearly indicate why man will continue to suffer from the ravages of disease. Notice this cause-and \u00adeffect relationship as outlined in the 28th chapter of Deuteronomy: \u201cBut if you will not obey the voice of the Lord your God,\u201d warns man\u2019s Creator, \u201cthe Lord will make the pestilence cling to you until He has consumed you from off the land, which you go to possess. The Lord will smite you with consumption [wasting, degenerative disease], with fever and inflammation [possibly infectious contagions)\u2026. and the tumors, the scurvy [deficiency disease] and the itch, of which you cannot be healed. The Lord will smite you with madness [mental disorders] and blindness and dismay of heart [emotional trauma]\u201d (verses 15, 21-22, 27-28, The Amplified Bible).\nJesus Himself warned that the \u201csigns\u201d of the end of the age would include pestilences:\nWhether or not the Zika virus is to be pestilential will be seen. But there are more and more infections popping up and pestilences are coming.\nThis entry was posted on Monday, January 4th, 2016 at 4:00 pm\tand is filed under Prophecy.\nZika is more dangerous than many thought; USA has its first Zika death\nGenetically-modified mosquitoes have been released to \u2018fight Zika\u2019\nTW: Growing Threat of Superbugs",

        "raw_content": "The Nigerian telco investment landscape examined\nBy Com Series staff writer Valentine Gachambi, @First Communications\nAfrica is widely considered to be the poorest continent in the world in terms of cumulative GDP, despite huge natural resources and being one of the top fastest growing economies globally.\nHowever, this narrative has begun to change, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa - a region that has gained recognition for its efforts in the implementation of business and regulatory reforms to encourage foreign direct investment (FDI).\nThe World Bank\u2019s Doing Business 2014 report found that Sub-Saharan African countries were amongst the top 20 reformers globally, with Rwanda recording the best performance. Though most Sub-Saharan economies are on the fast-track to greater stability and economic growth, some countries in this region still experience moments of volatility and unrest, and though they have the potential to grow, they are yet to reach their full potential.\nCase in point, Nigeria - Africa\u2019s largest economy. Nigeria has over 170 million citizens and a Gross Domestic Product of over $500 billion. The country possesses vast mineral resources, with its main export being oil - producing over 2 million barrels a day, as well as a growing consumer class that has attracted considerable investor interest.\nNigeria's telco sector has grown vastly sinces the 2000s\nTechnological advancement, in particular, has put Nigeria in the sights of the global investment community, with the country\u2019s telecommunications sector having grown vastly since the 2000s. According to the Nigerian Communications Commission, there are 140 million telephone subscribers, including mobile and landline, representing a 100.6 per cent teledensity. The telecommunications space has largely been dominated by four private companies - MTN, Airtel, Globacom and Etisalat. It is estimated that 38% of Nigerians have access to the internet and most access it through mobile phones, while 6% of the population have broadband internet.\nIn addition, a report published by Venture Capital for Africa states that Nigeria and Kenya are now leading in Africa in terms of fundraising and startups. The report highlights that Nigeria currently lays claim to the highest number of startups raising the most funds, on the continent.\nNigeria and Kenya are now leading in Africa in terms of fundraising and startups\nAnother report, this time by Disrupt Africa, shows that 125 tech startups raised funds in 2015 around the African continent, to the tune of US$185,785,500; with South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya the top favoured destinations in 2015. South African startups raised in excess of US$54,568,000 throughout the year. Nigerian startups received over US$49,404,000 and Kenyan startups brought home over US$47,365,000.\nDespite the huge appetite for technology, the price of bandwidth is yet to come down to affordable levels for many Nigerians. The arrival of four large fibre-optic cables, including the huge Main One and Glo-1 cables that connect Nigeria\u2019s coast to global communications infrastructure is changing that. The dramatic increase in bandwidth could, analysts say, release the latent potential in Nigerian technology.\nHowever, as the country continues to advance technologically, a few challenges deter Silicon Valley investors from investing resources into the Nigerian technology sector. High taxation on broadband access to businesses and residences serves as a major barrier to investment. In conjunction with this, existing network operators that have built fiber-optic backbones are seemingly unwilling to share their infrastructure with outside competitors. Compounding this problem is the lack of proper existing infrastructure to harness, to begin with. But probably one of the biggest challenges facing investors is the lack of proper regulation and human capital in Nigeria. Granted these challenges may put off global investors, but they also present unique opportunities for large tech companies, with ample resources and ingenuity.\nTech companies benefit massively from the Nigerian investment space by the support offered by its burgeoning startup ecosystem.\nOne such local startup is Andela, a talent producing engine which sources software developers and trains and equips them with skills to meet global standards. Mark Zuckerburg and Priscilla Chan, through their Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), have invested $24 million in Andela to enable the startup to open a third office in Africa. The start-up currently has two offices in Nigeria and Kenya.\nTelecommunications is the infrastructure of the emerging global information society\nInitiatives such as these encourage the growth of tech companies in the region, through locally tapped talent. Companies needn\u2019t contract expensive experts from other continents, with local knowledge and skills so readily available on the ground. There is evidence of this already, with global companies taking it upon themselves to invest and seek out human capital in the country. IBM has created innovation hubs in Lagos and Calabar, joining search engine giant Google.\nTelecommunications is the infrastructure of the emerging global information society. As we enter the 21st century, the challenge that faces Nigeria is growing telecommunications as a way to empower its citizens economically and away from reliance on crude oil. The challenge for the Nigerian government lies with drafting policies that will rapidly build Nigeria\u2019s capacity to compete effectively with other economies. Without a solid telecommunications infrastructure, the country will not attract the right level of urgently needed local and foreign investment to build the economy.\nSavvy investors can actually capitalise from a lack of proper infrastructure. One good example is Fairwaves that provides a device to integrate existing mobile networks, to deliver network signals to mobile phones. This greatly reduces costs in the supply value chain. Operators can expand their networks and get wider coverage at a lower cost and therefore needn\u2019t pass on the high operating costs to the consumer. Products from Fairwaves mainly aims to penetrate rural areas, giving existing entrepreneurs and developers in those areas an opportunity to build and develop applications and develop software.\nDespite efforts by start-ups to find various innovative methods to generate revenue, they still require capital injection. Local investors have a crucial role to play in building investor confidence in the tech scene in Nigeria. Thus industry players must ignite initiatives to mobilise local capital. Such drives and initiatives will encourage foreign investors to commit to investing alongside local investors, and in doing so, demonstrate confidence in this growing sector.\nNigeria\u2019s big population and increasing access to technology and payments makes it an\n500Startups, a venture capital firm, is currently seeking its first investments in Nigerian technology companies as the country continues to encourage industries that will reduce its reliance on oil. The firm \u201cwould like to invest in at least one to two Nigerian tech companies in the next year,\u2019\u2019 said Andrea Barrica, venture partner at 500Startups. Nigeria\u2019s \u201cbig population and increasing access to technology and payments makes it an attractive market.\u201d\nThe future of Nigeria\u2019s information, communication and technology scene is bright. There is a presence of strong demand that exists for new innovations and increased mobilisation of local capital. The government of the day is also putting in place regulations to create a friendly investment climate in the country. Foreign investors need to do their homework and find a way to work with local human resource in order to customise technologies to fit within the Nigerian market and address gaps that exist. Investors that provide innovative technology and drive down huge prices have a potentailly huge market ahead of them.\nTo discuss, network and learn more about these, as well as other pertinent issues and topics in the Nigerian tech and telco space, join us in Lagos for Nigeria Com - the largest dedicated digital event in the region.\nEngage with us here:\nNigeria Com",

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report that between the years 2001 and 2008, more than 34,000 motorcyclists were killed in accidents, and approximately 1,222,000 individuals received treatment in the United States in emergency rooms for non-fatal injuries involving motorcycles.\nFurthermore, unlike car wrecks, motorcycle accidents often cause riders to sustain injuries specific to riding a bike. The following are some of the most common motorcycle accident injuries.\nThe CDC report shows that 30 percent of all non-fatal motorcyclist injuries occur to the legs and/or feet of the riders, with an additional 8 percent affecting the lower trunk of the body. An August 2008 report sponsored by the Mathematical Analysis Division of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration explains that these numbers include injuries to the ankles and all regions of the legs, as well as the hips, pelvis and other unnamed regions in the same lower half.\nFrequent Motorcycle Accident Injuries to the Head and Neck\nBecause motorcycle riders can be propelled off of the bike easily upon collision with another bike, car or even piece of property, many involved in accidents receive head and neck injuries upon impact. In fact, the CDC report demonstrates that in the same stretch of years, 22 percent of non-fatal motorcycle injuries were to riders\u2019 heads and necks. Furthermore, a 2009 report sponsored by the State Data Reporting Division of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that head and neck injuries will not always be minor, such as cuts or lacerations. They may actually be as devastating as severe traumatic brain injuries.\nCommon Motorcycle Crash Injuries: Upper Trunk\nBeyond injuries to the lower extremities and to the head and neck, injuries to the upper trunk of the body also account for a large percentage of motorcycle accident-related injuries. The CDC reports that 20 percent of injuries affect the upper trunk of riders, which can include the middle of the spine, chest, upper back and any other areas in this region. Furthermore, while injuries may include lacerations and broken bones, they may also involve internal damage, such as torn muscles or even punctured organs.\nContact an Attorney for Common Motorcycle Wreck Injuries\nBeing in a motorcycle accident in Warminster can leave you with a multitude of minor or even life-threatening injuries. And of course, these injuries may also force you to face mounting medical bills as you progress through rehabilitation.\nIn order to recover the compensation you need to cover the costs of damage repair and medical bills, it is important that you use the services of motorcycle accident attorneys Cordisco & Saile LLC.

Last year was our first time in Waldport and we loved it so much that we hope to continue a tradition of visiting at least once a year. We stay in a home right off the beach! Ethan is in heaven running up and down the beach and digging in the sand. For Dave and I, we get a break from the internet, phone service, and work. Dave crabbed right on the beach for two days. The funny thing is that he doesn't like crab but I do. So, he just does it for fun and to bless his wife! There is nothing like fresh crab! We were so surprised how warm it was! It was the first time to the Oregon coast that we took off our coats.\nI learned from our last trip that reading a book or magazine is hard with my active two year old on vacation. So, we brought our laptop and decided to study more on Lightroom. We had fun taking pictures and playing with them in the evenings. There are so many new favorites but here are a few to share with you!\nCreate Well: Take time away from home to enjoy life, creation, and peace.\nShaela September 25, 2009 at 7:47 AM\ngorgeous photos!

We work with organisations such as Resolution, which favours mediation to litigation in matrimonial cases, and the Plymouth Dementia Action Alliance which has helped to make the offices dementia friendly and our staff more aware of the issues involved.

        "raw_content": "We can do it, after all...\nAustralia: Where our cuddly creatures are so vicious, people choose to tackle a crocodile instead.\nQuote: \"The theft captured national media attention after The Morning Bulletin reported the thieves were initially believed to have been after a cuddly koala, but when the koala fought back, they went for the croc.\"\nhttps://www.frasercoastchronicle.com.au/news/horror-end-to-mans-bizarre-rocky-croc-crime/3176323/\n\u00ab Last Edit: May 21, 2017, 10:36:18 pm by Aurora_Australis \u00bb\nLast week, Gary Fletcher came in 6th in the hillsprint race.\nThis week in the flat cobble race, a good team result with a 4th place for Stewart Hamsten and a 5th place for Colin Johnston. Fraser Furey contributes 10 points as well.\nOverall, we are in 2nd place, trailing 310 points behind the Danish National Team, that has been pretty dominant the last couple of seasons. 3 More races to go, all with a good amount of climbing.\nIn the climb/hill race, things looked very good after the 3rd section. Unfortunately for us, too many cyclists were able to get back in the 4th (flat) section, which is not always the case in NT-races. Well, we finished 9th with Dixon, which is neither great nor really bad.\nStill on track for the silver medal in the nation's rankings, behind Denmark.\nThe selection is made and the tactics are set for this season's final race.\nThis season has gone really fast, in my opinion, geez...\nIs there anyone who is willing to be candidate to take over the managing role of the NT? I feel I cannot be as active as I wanted to be on the forum anymore to create some buzz around the National Team.\nQuote from: WinterIsComing on June 08, 2017, 11:33:50 pm\nIf there's noone else, I'll consider taking the U21 position, providing I have a guarantee of somebody to take over if my court proceedings interfere before the end of the season.\nVery good 2nd place in this last race, WiC !\nAlso congratulations with the 2nd place in the Ranking by Countries, well done !\nWe finish 2nd again, both in the final race and in the Nations' ranking. Congrats to Denmark, who win for 3rd time in a row. We have a great generation, but Solex and Denmark has beat us fair and square. They have an even better generation/manager.\nSee you all next season.\nEdit: thx Vos.\nGreat season guys! Congrats for the 2nd place!\nIn my last season as NT UK I've finished 3rd!!\nI'm booking my flights to arrive to Wollongong next Monday...\nQuote from: Franky on June 12, 2017, 08:07:47 am\nWe welcome you, Sir Franky.\nAnd congrats with the win in the last race, which got you to the podium. Great stuff.\nQuote from: WinterIsComing on June 12, 2017, 08:25:28 am\nMeh, wasn't a good race in fact. Greg was alone all the race, without a helper, but he was very very good for this stage, and with the help of having to weather icons, sun and wind... too easy to win with him.\nJust a reminder, if somebody active wants to be one of the minor NT managers next season, I'll be happy to withdraw or change my nomination (particularly with my court case still coming).\nQuote from: Aurora_Australis on June 13, 2017, 10:30:26 pm\nSame goes with the 'major' NT. I applied, but only because there still was noone else. Happy to step down, or switch to a 'junior' team if someone else wants to take the elite NT.\nhaha, I think that I can't be NT manager in the first season, but even that, I want to rest of that position a few seasons...and I think that is happening the same to Chris\nNo problem Franky, you can take your time and settle first. Is Chris coming over to Australia as well?\nAnd I see that we have a candidate in all selections for next season, so that is great\nHaven't seen so many people flip since Glasnost\nIt is always difficult for people to find time over the summer.",

        "raw_content": "'Underneath the Lintel,' an adventure of a chaotic mind\nPlay clever, witty and thought-provoking; performances at the Dairy start today\nActor Steve Grad rehearses a scene as the Librarian in the one-man play \"Underneath The Lintel\" last week at the Horizons West Condos in Boulder. The performance opens at the Dairy Arts Center today. (Jeremy Papasso/Staff photographer)\nWhat: \"Underneath the Lintel\"\nWhere: Dairy Arts Center's Carsen Theater, 2590 Walnut St., Boulder\nWhen: 8 p.m. today and Dec. 7; 8 p.m. Saturday and Dec. 8; 2 p.m. Sunday and Dec. 9\nInfo: thedairy.org\n\"Underneath the Lintel,\" a 2001 one-man show written by Glen Berger, takes audiences on a bizarre jaunt through the ages and across the globe.\nIn Boulder's Treeline Theater production, showing at the Dairy Arts Center starting today, the sanity, motive and end goal of the protagonist is questioned. Fusing quirkiness with absurdity, actor Steve Grad embodies the uptight Librarian, a character who perhaps has spent too many years confined to a place where adventures only live between pages.\n(Jeremy Papasso / Staff Photographer DAILY CAMERA)\n\"The script is amazing,\" said director Amy Kaplan. \"There is nothing predictable about this character. It's definitely a drama, but the humor in it is so rooted in the character's world view, understanding and misunderstanding of himself.\"\nAfter an overdue travel guidebook, which should have been returned more than a century ago, lands in the mitts of a sheltered Dutch librarian it becomes the source of his unrelenting obsession. Clues scribbled in the margin and a folded up dry-cleaning ticket take him on a freewheeling quest to track down the offender. The perpetrator's utter disregard to not follow through with the library's system truly sends the Librarian into a rage and he becomes relentless in his mission to get to the bottom of just who was this neglectful book borrower.\nNot a knee-slapping, belly-laugh production, the humor is found in subtleties. It surfaces in the fact that the Librarian truly believes he may have been the first person to fake an illness to get out of work. There is also mention of a woman being struck down dead by a frozen block of urine.\nThe audience sees the gears in his head turn, as he frantically scribbles down words on a chalk board and even does some math, to attempt to put the pieces of this hazy puzzle together. He's rented out a warehouse space to inform the public of this mystery that plagues him. At times, he gives off the vibe of an impassioned professor dedicated to capturing the interest of his pupils, and yet he also seems to channel the energy of a crazy soul one may see rambling to a flickering lamppost on a street corner.\n\"The script is a lot more layered then at first, second and even third read,\" said Kaplan. \"There are places where it moves into a new realm very suddenly and the mood changes.\"\nWe hear the Librarian speak briefly of a woman he once loved, a sense of longing clings to his shaky words. He also holds the stamp he wears around his neck, one he uses for marking books, and comments that it \"contains every date there ever was.\" For a moment it seems he holds the universe in his hands. The passing of time, humanity and the fleeting nature of one's life comes to the forefront.\nStory of self-discovery\n\"It's beautifully written and filled with major themes\u2014 intimacy, the need for human contact, leaving a legacy, 'Does God exist?',\" said the production's star Steve Grad.\nExistentialism and spirituality are woven within the script.\n\"It's really a story of self discovery; discovery of the world,\" said Grad. \"This character is cautious, careful, go-by-the-book, even somewhat prissy and he's making discoveries that are opening the world up to him.\"\nThe Librarian's motions are one of someone who is the epitome of high strong.\nFiddling with his tie and glasses, he appears to be nerve wracked \u2014 obsessed with someone else's past, perhaps because he hasn't fully lived his present.\n\"He's searching and not finding,\" said Grad.\nClever, witty and sometimes thought-provoking, \"Underneath the Lintel\" gives a look inside the chaotic mind of a wannabe detective, and in turn fosters up themes of fulfillment and life's meaning. The internal struggle the Librarian faces plays out in a Ping-Pong match of words he has with himself.\n\"He is the aggressor, the protagonist and the victim as well,\" said Kaplan.\nFrantically brandishing tagged clues in front of the audience, the Librarian presents a new facet to the lengthy tale with each additional prop. Audiences won't know whether to pity the protagonist for the jarring rabbit hole he has slid down or commend him for his dedication to uncovering a complex journey that may shine a light on much deeper aspects of life.\n\"It's easier doing a one-man show because I don't have to depend on anyone else,\" said Grad. \"It's difficult cause I don't have anyone else to depend on. It's up to me as a performer to get people engaged.\"\nHot-collared and jittery, the Librarian struggles to disperse all the knowledge he has gained about the individual who checked out that travel guide long ago. Determined, yet perhaps delusional, he ropes viewers in with his intensity, spastic nature and precise attention to detail.\n\"The audience will be confused in the sense that they lean in to follow,\" said Kaplan. \"This isn't a sit back, watch and let it unfold and wash over you type of story.\"\nKalene McCort: 303-473-1107, kmccort@prairiemountainmedia.com",

Now I'm going to have to gather the children up for a road trip. This is so interesting!\nThis is how redneck-ed I am, but wouldn't it be neat to have about 4 or 5 of those cars renovated as little guest rooms for a bed-and-breakfast? My in-laws would be rolling their eyes and gnashing their teeth over that idea...\nOne of my favorite things about this picture is the stack of net-wrapped haybales behind the boxcar. That's classic small-town Montana.\nIf you haven't been out that way, White Sulphur is definitely worth a roadtrip! It's gorgeous country, and a nice little town that still hasn't been hit by the urbanization that's gotten so much of the Montana mountain country.\nAnd I love the B&B idea! I've seen a number of places where old railway cars have been converted into hotel rooms or youth hostels, and I think it would be very cool. (If you've ever been up around Glacier Park, there's a hotel called the Izaak Walton Inn up there ... where you can rent a caboose for the night! I've always wanted to do it, but it's a little out of my budget ...)",

Since this day, the date -December 10 of every year has been marked as the Human Rights Day worldwide. There are certain rights guiding a human person, one of it, which I think is the most important is the 'right to life'. Every human has an intrinsic value which is the dignity of a human person. Every human has the right to existence and to live peacefully with one another. It is a good thing to know and understand your rights. Apart from the diverse declaration that exists globally, which essentially is relevant to know, what is it that exists in the constitution of your nation? In this context, what is it that exists in the Nigerian constitution? A basic knowledge of the Nigerian constitution will do alot of good. Many times, I have wondered at some actions I see or hear happen around me. An example is sometimes\nwatching a human being tortured in the name of discipline or uniformed men maltreating the civilians because of the arms they are carry and probably the power behind their uniform. If only human right education could be made part of educational curriculum, it would help alot to instill that consciousness of 'rights' within our society. While having the consciousness of 'rights' instilled, the consequences for violation of one's right should not spare any...better still, have 'no sacred cow'. As we mark Human Rights Day, educate people around you. \"Human rights belong equally to each of us and bind us together as a global community with the same ideals and values. As a global community we all share a day in common: Human Rights Day on 10 December, when we remember the creation 63 years ago of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. On Human Rights Day 2011, we pay tribute to all human rights defenders and ask you to get involved in the global human rights movement\" -UN",

        "raw_content": "soundholic1@naver.com\nWHOwho is a three-piece indie rock band based in Seoul, South Korea, whose motto is \u201cDance Silly, Play Sexy.\u201d The leader of WHOwho, Jun Roh (Guitar, Vocal) wanted to make music that would make audiences dance. Joining forces with John Ahn (Bass guitar), Jincheol Kim (Drum) and session member Young Kwang Joung (Synthsizer), WHOwho rocks an energetic, danceable, and funky sound that does just that. Since its formation in early 2012, WHOwho has performed concerts at numerous clubs in Hongdae \u2013 the Korean metropolis of the indie rock scene. In most cases, Jun Roh writes a rough outline for a song and then the band arranges it into a catchy track. According to them, they are influenced by various types of music. They listen to music as much as possible without regard for any particular genre. In addition, they are influenced by visual art, media art, and many other types of artistic expression that can be linked back to music. Their music has three particular characteristics. First, it can be described with the words: energetic, danceable, and funky. In other words, their music is good at making listeners move their feet. If you come to their gig, you can see people jump, slam-dance, and sing along. It is not surprising to see the crowd join in when they play live. Second, most of their music is about love, a subject that resonates with audiences around the world. Third, all of their songs are written in English. This is because vocalist Jun Roh used to live in New Zealand. While there, he had a habit of singing in English. WHOwho believes that lyrics in English can be advantageous in appealing to international fans. As a matter of fact, one of their goals as a band is to play gigs not only in Korea but also worldwide. There\u2019s a funny story behind the band\u2019s name. When WHOwho was formed, they spent all the money they had to rent out a studio. They were so broke that they had no choice but to have cheap meals such as french fries, which is pronounced \u201cWho-rench Who-ries\u201d in Korean. Recalling such moments, they combined the first syllables from each word - WHOwho \u2013 for the band\u2019s name! That being said, they still want listeners to discover their own meaning for the name. In May 2012, they had released their demo album, which became a hit among fans, labels, and music festival organizing companies. Soundholic, one of the largest indie labels in Korea, liked their work so much that they signed the band. Since then, WHOwho has released two EP albums. If you listen to both, you will be surprised at how much they have improved since their debut. If I were you, I would not miss their first full-length album. Stay tuned for their next move!\nWHOwho Shop\nTweets by @whowho330\nRelated posts to WHOwho\nAn Interview With WHOwho",

        "raw_content": "The Croatian government has grown into a self-centered beast that is more of a detriment than benefit to the well-being of the Croatian nation. The Croatian government MUST be reformed before it bankrupts Croatia!\nThe Croatian parliamentary elections are less than 2 years away - just enough time for a reform-minded political party to start developing a new vision for the role of the government. After almost 50 years of communism, 5 years of war, and 18 years of slowly crawling towards true representative democracy and a free market economy Croatian reformers will need to start from scratch in developing a responsive, affordable and accountable government.\nA political party which wants to show vision will need to show a PROACTIVE vision\nrather than having a program of reactionary policies\nThe first step will be to define the purpose (scale and scope) of government.\nThe second step will be to define the programs and vision of the government.\nI believe that a government should be:\nSmall and effective - and not eat too much of the economy\nResponsible and accountable to the people that empower it\nEmpower citizen-government rather than ruling the citizens\nThree areas that I would like to move in Croatia are:\n1. Smaller and more efficient government\nGovernments grow in size and scope because of two natural forces; the first being that bureaucrats want to protect their jobs and build empires and the second because special interest groups keep making demands on government for protection or funding. Well meaning people (for the most part) create an ever increasing monster. In Croatia, with a population of about 4.3 million there are 151 ministers in the parliament. This is too much.\nI would like to learn from the business world and see the following improvements in the management government:\nDevelop a criteria for what amount of GDP the government can spend.\nDevelop budget spending limits so that the wellbeing of future citizens is not mortgaged for the benefit of today\nDevelop a criteria for what percentage of the population can be employed by the government (municipal, regional and national).\nDevelop an annual program in which 5% of all programs over 10 years old are assessed to determine if they are still accomplishing anything of relevance.\nDevelop an annual program where any law that is more than 30 years old still has relevance to society. Laws are to be updated or eliminated.\nDevelop a Vitality Curve based process (20/70/10 rule - Jack Welch) for annually eliminating non-performing bureaucrats.\n+ + + Government jobs should not be seen as comfortable lifetime employment.\n2. Government transparency and accountability\nAt present transparency and accountability in the Croatian government are very low. There is no oversight and the people are powerless. The government is nothing but a bad soap opera that the people are forced to watch. If the people are paying for the services of government through their taxes then the citizen/customer of those services must have the right to change their service providers.\nThe government must be accountable to the people. If politicians or bureaucrats make decisions against the common good, or they are corrupt, there should be a way to remove not only the politicians but bureaucrats as well from government between election cycles. to determine who is making good decisions and who is not, there must be transparency into all parts of government.\nI would like to see the following areas of transparency in government:\nIdentify potential conflict of interest for all politicians and bureaucrats\nShow how each elected official voted in various government issues\nShow how each politician spend government funds in their area of responsibility\nAn annual report which identifies what change or improvement was created (how did the nation benefit)\nMake public all contracts for government services\nMake an efficient and honest \u201cAccess to Information\u201d program\nDevelop a process for getting rid of corrupt and incompetent bureaucrats\nIdeally I would like to see some form of ombudsman that would investigate complaints by citizens or a department like the US Government Accountability Office.\nhttp://www.gao.gov/about/index.html\n3. Implementation of Direct Democracy - Government by the People\nWe Croatians do not trust the government, but it blue or red the governments to date have worked for their own self interest and not the interests of the people. The bureaucracy has a sense of entitlement and decisions are made that benefit the elites and those connected to the elites. Social engineers try to create a society which they think is best for the people without regard for the desires of the people. If the government does not want to voluntarily represent the will of the people then the people need to have some way to influence the policymakers and the elected representatives.\nI would like to see the following improvements to direct democracy:\nDevelop a criteria of types of decisions which are automatically made by direct democracy referendum rather than by politicians.\nDevelop an annual direct democracy - referendum program where the citizens can vote on any issues that receive over 50,000 support signatures.\nDevelopment of a technology based, cost effective manner for carrying out voting on issues of importance to the population.\nDevelop local direct democracy processes\nEnsure that decisions made by direct democracy can\u2019t be revisited for 5 or 10 years and supreme court or government can\u2019t overturn the decisions",

        "raw_content": "8 Things You Didn't Know About Stan Lee\n1. He Is the Single Highest-Grossing Filmmaker In History\nSince Stan Lee gets an Executive Producer credit on pretty much every Marvel film ever (including ones for characters he didn't create, like Captain America) and Marvel films have made A LOT of money (The Avengers alone is the 3rd highest grossing film ever), Stan Lee movies have made over 11 billion dollars. Take THAT, James Cameron.\n2. He Made His Comic Book Debut As a Text Filler\nThe comic was 'Captain America Foils the Traitor's Revenge' in Captain America Comics #3 (May 1941). On top of it being Stan's debut, it was ALSO the debut of Cap's signature move - throwing his shield like a frisbee that would bounce back. This was the first time he used the name Stan Lee (his birth name was Stan Lieber).\n3. After He Retired From Marvel, He Went To Work For DC Comics (Briefly)\nStan Lee did a series for DC Comics called 'Just Imagine..' - where Lee wold reimagine some of DC Comics' most famous characters as he would have written them, including:\nSuperman was a member of Kryptonian law enforcement, and was accidentally teleported to Earth while capturing a dangerous criminal. Superman (real name Saiden) tries to maintain peace on Earth in order to guarantee a technologically-advanced future so that he can be teleported back to Krypton.\nBatman's now named Wayne Williams, and is an African-American whose father died in the line of duty as a police officer. Wayne is set up for a crime he didn't commit, and is taught how to hone his body and mind in prison by his mentor Frederick Grant. Once released, he wrestles under the name 'Batman' in order to hide his identity and earn money. He becomes extremely popular and rich, and uses the money to setup Grant as a millionaire, with Wayne acting as his bodyguard so he won't draw attention.\nWonder Woman is an activist protesting a corporation from excavating a holy site - and accidentally comes across a plaque containing two spirits, one of lightness and one of darkness. The light spirit bonds with her, giving her solar-powers. The dark spirit bonds with the head of the evil corporation, turning him into a beast.\n4. The First Comic Book Character He Created Was 'The Destroyer'\nCo-created with Jack Binder and Alex Schomburg (although it's unclear who actually designed the character), The Destroyer debuted in Mystic Comics #6 (Oct 1941). He was an American journalist reporting from behind enemy lines during World War II who got captured by the Nazis, and was given a prototype super soldier serum by an German scientist who opposed the Nazis. He escaped his confinement and used his abilities to fight Nazis throughout the war.\n5. Stan Lee Exists Within the World of Marvel Comics In Earth-1218\n...and so do all of us, since Earth-1218 is the Marvelverse's name for our actual reality.\n6. One of His Earliest Jobs Was Writing Obituaries\nProbably not a coincidence he went on to create numerous characters who were constantly dying and being brought back to life.\n7. He's the Reason Drug Use Can Even Be Shown In Comics\nIn the mid-1970's, The United States Department of Health, Education and Welfare asked Stan Lee to write a comic book depicting the dangers of drug abuse while he was editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics. He did a three part Spider-Man story that involved Harry Osborne having a bad LSD trip, but the Comic Code Authority objected to the comics because they had a strict no-drug policy - even if drugs were being shown in a negative light. Stan decided to run the issues without CCA approval and the issues sold just fine. After this, the CCA changed their policy - allowing drug-related topics to be included in comics.\n8. He Had a Cameo in The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement\nDespite what you may think, The Princess Diaries is not based on a superhero comic created by Stan Lee.",

        "title": "The 12 Sleighs of Christmas | Don't read this to my kids",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb The 12 Sleighs of Christmas\nPretty early on, I knew how this was going to end. It follows a pretty standard pattern, although I was pleasantly surprised by the way that they handled the end.\nBy the title, it's obviously a Christmas story. Two weeks before Christmas, the elves go to check Santa's sleigh and they find out that it's a mess. There's no way he can use it in that shape, so they talk about fixing it, but somebody says, \"Wait, wait. Why don't we come up with new sleigh ideas and we can build them!\" So a bunch of elf teams get together and design and build different sleighs, with Santa as the judge for which one he actually wants to take. At this point, my experience with this sort of story kicked in, and I knew he was going to prefer his original sleigh, because tradition always wins in this kind of circumstance, especially when Christmas is involved.\nThere's a lot of really cool looking sleighs. I think my eldest, vehicle-obsessed, son would really enjoy identifying the different parts of the sleighs, and pointing out the dragster sleigh. He'd be over the moon about the big rig/semi truck sleigh with the tractor trailer for hauling toys. There is also a ship, a snowplow, an airplane, a UFO, a train, and a submarine sleigh, among others.\nWhen Santa comes out, he says all the sleighs are awesome. I think it's great that he has pride and respect for all of their creations, despite not asking for this. He says, \"So interesting, so much fun, so clever, each and every one!\" But predictably, he continues, \"But... nothing seems exactly right, not quite perfect (just... not quite) for this very special night.\" And, of course, one elf had been fixing up the old sleigh, just in case, with its reindeer and everything, and Santa flies away with it.\nInstead of ending the story right there, or having the elves be dejected, it continues with the elves looking around at all the vehicles and going, \"Let's race!\" So maybe Santa didn't prefer any of their creations, but they like them, and they're going to have fun with them. And there's a little twist at the very end where you see Santa with his sleigh, having crashed into a tree, using a strange-looking phone to call the lead engineer of the elves as he clearly needs a replacement. Extrapolating past the last page, he will probably end up taking one of the many other sleighs that the elves made since there's no other alternative, but the book doesn't reveal which one he will choose.\nI don't care for the hackneyed \"tradition is best\" message, though they handled it relatively well. The illustrations have a weird moire pattern over them. I'm not sure if that's a stylistic choice. It appears on every page, so it doesn't seem like a printing error. The mad science-style engineering (with entire vehicles designed and assembled within a few days) is acceptable, since you're working with elves and magic. The creativity is really cool, even though it's not necessarily rewarded in the expected manner. Everyone just enjoys the process and results. I think they avoided the idea of the old ways being more comfortable and not to avoid the new, and the message ends up being more like, \"Creativity is awesome.\"\nSherri Duskey Rinker",

For the surrounding space, I chose a pure geometic shape, the square, more beautiful than any other form. It would function to bring new order to a jumbled and messy townspace.Exposed concrete and lavish use of glass would give a quiet appearance to the building, separating the peaceful interior from the noisy outside. Inside, rooms are nested inside each other, a traditional form in Japanese architecture, found in sacred places such as temples and shrines.

As the season continues, EMSCT finds themselves facing a tough situation, they need money to continue to cover operating costs. Each production runs over a thousand dollars, if not more, just based on royalties.\n\"We have been quite fortunate to have received many grants from the Palo Alto County Gaming Corporation, and while these grants have allowed us to purchase up-to-date equipment and do essential building improvements, they cannot be used for operation costs like utilities and rights and royalties for productions,\" Peggy Stolley wrote in a letter to Friends of EMSCT. \"We are also lucky to have a large and generous membership, and we appreciate every person who attended our shows. But the reality is that our costs have gone up, and this is no longer enough to maintain our program.\"\nMain Street Community Theatre provides an opportunity for not only adults, but for children and teens to find self-confidence and hone talents. It is not only an opportunity for the actors, but EMSCT provides entertainment for audiences three times a year.\n\"We are asking our supporters, our friends, to make a donation to the theatre to help us start the next forty years,\" Stolley states. \"We are asking for any amount you can give, large or small, and we are truly grateful for all donations. Your donations will help us continue to represent the arts in Emmetsburg and surrounding communities, allow us to continue to produce a children's show in early summer where all children are welcomed and encouraged to find their strengths and embrace them, and highlight the skills, talent, and passions of local community members.\"\nIf you would like to make a donation to Emmetsburg Main Street Community Theatre, you can drop off money at Iowa Trust & Savings Bank in Emmetsburg for the Main Street Community Theatre Fundraising Drive or donate online through Emmetsburg Main Street Community Theatre's Facebook page or GoFundMe campaign.\nIf you have any questions or would like to help in other capacities, please contact a member of the fundraising committee: Peggy and Andy Stolley, Don Joyce, Stacy Berkland, George Van Meter, Lori Flynn, or Faith Kennedy.\nYou can also support Main Street Community Theatre by shopping at Five Island Spa Co. during the month of April.

        "raw_content": "\u0093Do not envy a man of violence, and do not choose any of his ways.\u0094\nOne recent morning, I opened up the newspaper and tried an experiment. I looked at the headlines trying to determine how many articles described violence in the name of religion. It was frightening. I imagine that were I to continue this practice each morning, every day would yield a fresh crop. That particular morning, a small piece in the middle of the A section caught my attention. A Baptist pastor in Bangladesh, who was leading a discussion about religion in his home, was stabbed by three men invited to the conversation. This was their second discussion about Christianity, Hinduism and Islam, and it ended in blood. The pastor's wife and daughter cried out \"Save us. Save us,\" as the men fled on a motorcycle. The pastor survived. What pained me most was the mangled premise of the get-together: you can invite people to your home to discuss faith in an environment of safety, diversity and respect. Not in all parts of the world.\nRabbi Jonathan Sacks, former chief rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth, has just published and eloquent treatise on how and why we must confront religious violence called Not in God's Name. He opens with a discussion of why religious ideologies have garnered so much strength of late in the shadow of the Enlightenment and rampant secularism:\n\"Science, technology, the free market and the liberal democratic state have enabled us to reach unprecedented achievements in knowledge, freedom, life expectancy and affluence...But they do not and cannot answer the three questions every reflective individual will ask at some time in his or her life: Who am I? Why am I here? How then shall I live? These are questions to which the answer is prescriptive not descriptive, substantive not procedural. The result is that the twenty-first century has left us with a maximum of choice and a minimum of meaning.\"\nReligion fills in the meaning gap, but this return has not been gentle or kind to the other in the minds of many. Rabbi Sacks continues: \"Instead it is a religion at its most adversarial and aggressive, prepared to do battle with the enemies of the Lord, bring the apocalypse, end the reign of decadence and win the final victory for God, truth and submission to the divine will.\" It's a formula fueled by intolerant passion, and it is not going away.\nRabbi Sacks describes this fuel as \"altruistic evil,\" evil committed for a sacred cause or in the name of high ideals. He spends the next chapters describing the rise of altruistic evil, how it does damage to the integrity of faith commitments and how we have to re-interpret sacred texts radically so that religion can be restored to its aim of peace, love and justice. It is not religion that is violent but misguided human beings who put an overlay of violence on religion and compromise its holiness and its capacity to bring meaning and community into the lives of ordinary human beings. I invite you to read the book yourself because a failure to frame this phenomenon leaves us unprepared for some of the most challenging and pernicious global problems of our time.\nLet's turn to the verse from Proverbs above - \"Do not envy a person of violence, and do not choose any of his ways\" - is simple and unequivocal. Do not become a person who envies violence. Why would anyone envy violence? Yet we are drawn to passionate, charismatic people who shun ambivalence and seem to walk in the world with confidence and certainty. That is why the context in which this verse appears is particularly important. Proverbs 3 opens with a reminder to a child not to forget God's teachings that will bestow life and well-being. \"Do not be wise in your own eyes,\" states verse seven. Instead, \"fear the Lord and shun evil. It will be a cure for your body, a tonic for your bones.\" This is actually the same chapter where we find the famous verse in our liturgy: \"Her ways are pleasant, and all her paths are peaceful. She is a tree of live to those who grasp her, and whoever holds on to her is happy.\"\nFor religion to do its most meaningful work, all of its paths must lead to peace. It has to be a tree of life, not a sword that leads to untimely and useless deaths. All those who care passionately about faith have to re-commit to passionate moderation. \"No soul was ever saved by hate,\" Rabbi Sacks argues. \"We are blessed. And to be blessed, no one has to be cursed. God's love does not work that way.\"\nTagged: Jonathan Sacks\nNewer PostBlue and White Not Red\nOlder PostA Fly in the Ointment",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a magazine \u203a november 2013 \u203a european reports \u203a Surprising purchasing policy in the Netherlands\nSurprising purchasing policy in the Netherlands\nNico Lemmens of ISS Facility Services examines new procurement legislation in the Netherlands.\nWith the new Public Procurement Act, which came into force in the Netherlands in April 2013, and the recent coalition agreement for the current Rutte II cabinet, the Dutch government has taken two remarkable steps. The new Public Procurement Act aims to counteract \u2018unfair competition\u2019 against SMEs.\nThe \u2018unnecessary clustering\u2019 of revenue streams by contracting authorities (in order to then put them out to tender in a single contract) is seen as unfair competition and is therefore to be discouraged. Government bodies which nonetheless wish to cluster revenue streams will need to justify doing so.\nThis raises a fundamental question: what do we mean by competition? Is a big company that can handle large volumes guilty of unfair competition against smaller companies that cannot? Or is this rather one of the ways in which a big company can differentiate itself in a competitive market? European public procurement legislation aims, among other things, to promote competition. The question is whether the ban on clustering has any place within this.\nAnd there\u2019s more. The government is using purchasing as a policy tool. There is nothing wrong with that per se. It does the same thing to encourage corporate social responsibility (CSR) among service providers, for example. But there is an important difference between these two uses of purchasing as a policy tool.\nIn the case of the policy of encouraging CSR, service providers acquire a new way of differentiating themselves in the competitive arena. That is not the case with the policy of discouraging clustering. Quite the reverse: in this case, the policy is actually distorting the competitive environment.\nThe second remarkable step can be seen in the Rutte II coalition agreement. This agreement contains the following passage:\n\u201cBy opening up the lowest pay scales, contract workers at the lower end of the labour market, such as cleaners and catering staff, can be taken back into regular employment. The government will set a good example in this respect.\u201d\nIn this case, the government is using purchasing policy (insourcing instead of outsourcing) as a tool of labour market policy (protection of contract workers). That intention is contrary to the desire expressed elsewhere in the coalition agreement to strive for a flexible apparatus of government.\nOutsourcing is, of course, an effective tool for ensuring flexibility. Apart from that, the government is missing out on a great opportunity here. It is precisely in the interests of contract workers that the government should focus its facility purchasing policy on the outsourcing of facility services, but in an integrated manner with long-term contracts.\nIntegral outsourcing means that facility services are bundled in a single contract. This gives service providers the opportunity to offer their staff full-time jobs by combining tasks that were traditionally covered by separate contracts. The government would be doing the \u2018lower end\u2019 of the labour market, the taxpayer, the public sector, the trade unions and the facility services industry a great service by studying some of the many examples of this type of outsourcing in the private sector and learning the appropriate lessons from them.",

        "raw_content": "EveryOne Group and Habeshia, the Eritrean Refugee agency: \u201cForcing the refugees to carry out \u201csocially useful labour\u201d without any guarantee of asylum or dignified living conditions is a further unacceptable violation of their human rights.\nEurope and Italy must take them in and grant them asylum. In the meantime we are asking for an inspection to be carried out by the United Nations or the Council of Europe to check that the Eritreans are being held in humanely acceptable conditions\u201d.\nMilan, July 9th, 2010. On June 30th we received news from Habeshia that about 350 refugees (most of them Eritreans) were being transferred by truck from Mishratah prison to that of Al Braq. There were about 80 children among them.\nMany of them in the past had been \u201cpushed back\u201d in Italian and Maltese territorial waters. On the night of their arrival in Al Braq they were subjected to beatings and torture, an authentic \u201cblood bath\u201d according to some eye witnesses \u2013 and it all took place among the general indifference of the international community.\n\u201cThanks to some phone contacts from Habeshia, it was possible to talk to some of the refugees. The direct calls have enabled us to keep up to date with what is happening there\u201d say Roberto Malini, Matteo Pegoraro and Dario Picciau, co-presidents of EveryOne Group. On July 2nd the refugees told the human rights defenders that they had been subjected to further degrading and inhumane treatment and that they were in danger of being deported back to their home countries. Only the intervention of Thomas Hammarberg, the Commissioner for Human Rights at the Council of Europe convinced a reluctant Italian Minister of the Interior to ask Libya for a humanitarian solution. On July 7th, the Italian Minister of the Interior communicated the drawing up of a formal agreement by the Libyan Government to free the refugees in exchange for \u201csocially useful labour\u201d - which is to be carried out in the various municipalities they will be sent to. \u201cWe are talking about an agreement that violates international law where human rights are concerned, because \u201csocially usefully labour\u201d is just an alternative punishment to jail,\u201d say EveryOne\u2019s activists. \u201cThis form of labour offers no guarantee for the future where wages, working hours and working conditions are concerned. The refugees are offered no housing, civil rights or a dignified existence.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s not the first time Libya has thought up this kind of proposal,\u201d says Don Mussie Zerai, the president of Habeshia. \u201cThe agreement does not guarantee the refugees any protection and they could well be imprisoned yet again and deported in a few weeks\u2019 time. Libya does not recognise the right to asylum, so it is essential that Europe takes them in and offers them protection \u2013 especially Italy, which was the refugees\u2019 country of choice.\u201d EveryOne Group and Habeshia are calling upon the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Mrs Navy Pillay, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Antonio Guterres, and the Commissioner for Human Rights at the Council of Europe, Thomas Hammarberg, to keep an eye on the situation to ensure the rights of the refugees (especially the minors and their families) are respected and that they are not left to fend for themselves in Libya without the guarantee of international protection.\n\u201cWhat is more, we are asking them\u201d say Malini, Pegoraro and Picciau\u201d to send inspectors to Libya from the United Nations and the Council of Europe in order to ensure the Eritrean refugees are in good health and that their rights are being respected.\u201d\nMilan, July 9th, 2010.\nAccording to the latest news that we received yesterday afternoon, the Libyan government, after the pressure put on it by the NGOs, intends to guarantee residency and employment suitable to the professional skills of all 350-400 refugees. This is still an unacceptable solution, because if they remain in Libya they will still lack refugee status with the resulting guarantee of protection. Once the political-media interest has subsided, the Eritrean refugees will inevitably be subjected to fresh arrests and inhumane treatment in the detention centres. They will once again be in danger of deportation back to their home country. The only solution in line with the charters that protect human rights is for them to be granted refugee status in the European Union.\nAfter an activist was told that only men and boys were being detained in Al Braq, we asked Habeshia where the women and the younger children were being held. The refugee agency replied that they are still at Mishratah, the internment centre from where the detainees were transferred on June 30th.\n32 men, 13 women and 7 children are still at Mishratah. As Habeshia also points out, the United Nations and the Council of Europe must always consider that the refugees are constantly subjected to pressure and ill-treatment. They may even be forced to sign agreements through threats and violence. The only real solution to their request for asylum would be for the EU authorities to grant them protection within the European Union. As for the statements of the Italian Minister of the Interior, who threw doubt on the possibility of them being \u201cpushed back\u201d to Libya, the Eritrean refugees possess proof of this fact as they wrote down the registration numbers on the Italian patrol boats. There is also another danger. Libya has asked the Eritrean Embassy to take care of the identification of the refugees. This procedure would endanger the lives of their families who stayed behind in Eritrea and whose members could well be subjected to imprisonment, interrogation and even torture.\nIn the meantime, today (July 9th) we have received news of attempts by the authorities to force the refugees to sign some government proposals under the threat of truncheons and electric shock batons. Frightened at the idea of being forced to take in these suffering and persecuted human beings, we are straying even further from any ideal of civilty, democracy and a culture of solidarity.\nSaturday, July 10, 2010, by EveryOne Group\nEritrean refugees in Libya - the recent proposal from Tripoli is insufficient",

        "raw_content": "In April 2018, Fainplast has started an important new expansion of its production plant in Ascoli Piceno. The new building currently under construction stands on a property already owned by the company and situated next to the existing factory. In prevision of such expansion, already in 2017, 2 new bridges were built over a small river dividing the 2 areas. 7000 sqm. of the new building will be dedicated to warehousing and production equipment while 1200 sqm. will be available for new offices and laboratories. The total investment for such new facility was estimated in 5 Million euro.\nPurpose of this new expansion is to increase the production capacity of Fainplast Polyolefin-based compounds and keep the pace of the Halogen free cables market that keeps growing year after year. As a matter of fact, further more investments have been put on the budget and 2 new compounding lines have already been ordered. These lines will be installed into the new building both by the end of year 2019. Additional to this the new facility will increase the total storage space of the company and improve the logistics of raw materials and compounds.\nOverall, these investments together with others already on Fainplast long term industrial plan should bring an increase of the production capacity of almost 50.000 MT/year within the next 5 years.\nMr. Faraotti, general manager and owner of the company, about this said: \u201c We strongly believe in what we are doing and will go ahead rapidly on the road that we have already traced years back. The market is expanding and we cannot miss the opportunity of being part of this growth. I am confident in our employees, and I think that these investment together with their competence and continuous dedication can only lead to more success in the years to come.\u201d\nFainplast is a recognised global leader in the production of compounds for cables with a specific strength in the production of Thermoplastic and Crosslinkable HFFR compounds. Founded in 1993, the company has constantly grown thanks to its attention to the customer needs and its specific vocation for R&D. In 2017 the production plant of Ascoli Piceno produced over 90.000 MT/of compound, of which more then 70% has been delivered to the cable industry. Fainplast ships its compounds to to over 60 countries worldwide.\nJoshua BruniFainplast expands its operations in Ascoli Piceno 05.09.2018",

        "title": "Pro-gun rocker Ted Nugent turns away firearms from his Roanoke show >> Four Winds 10 - Truth Winds",
        "raw_content": "Nugent's management informed security just minutes before the doors opened\nROANOKE, Va. - Famous rocker Ted Nugent performed in Roanoke on Tuesday night despite protests in the weeks leading up to the show. Nugent is a gun rights supporter and encourages open carry, but his fans were told at the last minute that they were not allowed to bring their guns inside the Berglund Performing Arts Theater.\nIt was Ted Nugent's management that made the decision to not allow guns into the show. The Berglund Center said because it is city owned, it can't keep guns out unless the performers are the ones who request it, and that it was actually in Nugent's contract all along, but was in a sub-contract between Nugent and his promoter that wasn't shared with Berglund Center management until the last minute.\n\"It happened about five minutes before we opened doors, we had a security meeting before we opened doors and the subject came up and we said, 'Yes people will be bringing firearms,'\" Berglund Center General Manager Robyn Schon said. And Nugent's people said, \"Uh, no, our agreement says no.'\"\nA long line had gathered outside the doors waiting to get in when security came out and made the announcement that there had been a change in plans. Guns would not be allowed in, pat downs would be performed, and anyone with a gun would be asked to take it to their car.\n\"Given the things that have happened in nightclubs like the Pulse and what happened in Manchester, (Nugent's) security people are taking extra precautions,\" Schon said. \"They are not novices; they are very seasoned people.\"\nThe announcement came as a change to prior rules where the venue discouraged guns, but couldn't ban people from bringing them on property. Most standing in line didn't even realize guns were at one point allowed in based on our off-the-cuff conversations with people. Two fans did have their guns turned away from the show, according to Schon, and Roanoke police had already brought in an increased presence in case something escalated.\n\"There's always that concern when other people are armed; however, if they're carrying legally, then we expect them to behave and act accordingly,\" Roanoke Police Lt. Jason Holt said, specifically citing events such as the Charlottesville riots where people did the opposite.\nRoanoke police would not say if there had been any specific or credible threats to the event, only that there had been lots of attention leading up to it and they wanted to be prepared. They said it's normal to have a police presence at these type of events, but the increased presence was the department's doing.\nNugent's management didn't approve any media passes and did not allow cameras inside. We purchased a ticket, however, to see the show. Just over a thousand people turned out for the show, which is about half the theater's capacity. Some people specifically turned out after local gun violence prevention advocate Andy Parker called for a boycott of the show and of the Berglund Center because of the booking.\n\"The gentleman protesting the fact that Ted Nugent was here, I'm a Ted Nugent fan and I thought, you know what? I'm going to come out and see Ted Nugent,\" Wendell Johnson said. \"So I bought two tickets.\"\nThose upset with the no gun rule wouldn't go on camera with us, but had lots to say off camera. But the majority were just fine with seeing Nugent, who promotes open carry and gun rights, without their weapons, despite being pro-gun themselves.\n\"I don't have a problem with that at all. I think you can look around and see this is an orderly crowd and I didn't anticipate anything else,\" Nugent fan Tom Miller said.\n\"I think it's probably pretty safe because some people get in there and get pretty crazy, and I came to see the show. I don't want to get shot,\" Donna Belcher added.\n10 News got to see about 20 minutes of Nugent's show before leaving due to time constraints. There was lots of red, white and blue and Nugent performed in front of a large American flag. Nugent walked on stage right after the speakers blasted \"We're an American Band\" by Grand Funk Railroad - the band that also had a song, \"Don't Let Em Take Your Gun.\"\nWednesday morning, Schon told 10 News, \"we stand by what we said Tuesday night and that is the end of our Ted Nugent story.\"\nWe've asked to see the contract; however, it cannot be acquired through a Freedom of Information Act request and it does not contain the language regarding the gun decision.\nhttps://www.wsls.com/news/virginia/roanoke/pro-gun-rocker-ted-nugent-turns-away-firearms-from-his-roanoke-show",

        "title": "The Free Information Society - Vario, Paul",
        "raw_content": "Articles/Biographies/Criminals/Vario, Paul\nPaul Vario was born in New York on July 10th, 1914. He first got involved with the mob during the mid 1920s, quickly developing a reputation as a ruthless leader that would take down anyone betraying him without hesitation. He was involved in a massive variety of crimes, including murder, robbery, illegal gambling, and selling stolen goods. The federal prosecutors that put him in prison said it all by calling him \"one of the most violent and dangerous career criminals in the city of New York.\"\nPaul, or \"Paulie\" as his friends called him, was known for his size. He was about six feet tall and weighed close to 250 pounds over the majority of his life. His appearance resembled that of a sumo wrestler, with jowls hanging below his chin, likening his appearance to that of a ferocious bulldog. He moved slowly through life because he felt that he didn't have to move quick for anyone and figured things would bend to his will, one way or another. His speaking often consisted of short grunt-like responses.\nPaulie owned a flower shop at Fulton Avenue in New York as well as a number of other businesses, including an auto junkyard, and bar-restaurant, where he and his cronies liked to hang out. At the bar, men asked Paulie for help and many deals were made, even severe punishments. Paulie lived with his wife Phyllis and three sons: Paul Jr., Peter, and Lenny.\nPaulie was considered to be a glutton by many who witnessed his eating habits. He would go out to fancy restaurants and consume entire meals by simply tipping back the bowl or plate and eating everything at once. Despite his eating habits, his cooking skills were well known and his pasta fagiole was renowned by many as the best in New York City.\nPaulie was also well known for his paranoia. He was very careful about putting his name on things and making phone calls. He never used private telephones, only public pay phones on the street. Even his boat docked in Sheepshead Bay had no name. He didn't like to speak out loud in public about dealings, instead always whispering.\nAt the height of Paulie's career, he was raking in $25,000 a day in earnings from his illegal operations. He had a massive network of gambling, bookmakers, loan sharks and numbers operators throughout NYC and beyond. Paul Vario was also the \"owner\" of the Kennedy Airport and conducted all truck hijacking operations there with his underling - James Burke.\nPaulie was very good at keeping the other families from going to war with his outfit. He had a diplomatic skill that allowed him to run his businesses without too much trouble and settle differences before they erupted into war. His diplomatic skills also assisted him in union corruption operations where his crew extorted millions of dollars every year from businesses that did not want union strikes to lose them their place in the market. When things got too hot, witnesses disappeared and people with outstanding loans received \"encouragement\".\nIn 1972, Paulie was put in prison for three years after the police bugged his headquarters and gathered 54,000 photos in addition to hours and hours of film.\nAfter his release, Paulie was very unhappy to find out that he had been passed over to replace Lucchese as the head of the crime family. Out of prison, he found that a number of his businesses had been ruined and he organized a large drug shipment worth 1.5 million dollars from Colombia. However, an informant tipped off the DEA and the entire load was seized in Queens (30 tons of narcotics), making Paulie very furious.\nAfter the tip off, Paulie had James Burke organize the famous Lufthansa Heist from the Kennedy Airport, netting over eight million dollars for the crew. Paulie was obviously very happy and returned to business as usual, until his former friend, Henry Hill, eventually testified against him in court, putting Paulie away for life. Paulie was sent to Fort Worth Prison and stayed there until his death in 1988 at the age of 73.\nPaul Vario was convinced to see Martin Scorsese's film \"Mean Streets\" at one time and absolutely loved it. He made his entire crew go to see the film, telling them that it was a film about their life. Paul Vario was immortalized in Scorsese's \"Goodfellas\" by Paul Sorvino.",

And Dylan Sicka of Yates Center had dropped down to Class 1A.\n\"I really came into this race pretty much blind about the other runners because we don't run against them all year,\" Ruth said. \"I just decided to spot myself and get off to a better start.\"\nRuth said he had a rough start last year but it was decidedly a different beginning on Saturday.\n\"Coaches and I decided to go out hard, find the guys to run with and stay right there near the lead,\" Ruth said.\nRuth did just that and by the final mile had taken the lead, then built on it.\n\"Just about a half mile to go there's a little loop left and coach hollered for me to turn it loose, so I just did what he told me to do,\" Ruth said. \"It's just really nice to finish off the year strong.\"\nThe weather was in the high 50s, compared to a year ago when the late starting times for Class 2A and the temperature near 80 degrees at the beginning of the race.\n\"The weather today made a world of difference for me,\" Ruth said. \"I didn't have to worry about any heat like last year. It was just perfect out there.\"\nRuth's final cross country campaign with a sickness that had mononucleosis-like symptoms, but turned out to be a virus. He didn't race at the outset of the schedule, and it was just past the mid-point of the season when he began to feel like his old self and could train hard.\n\"Once I started feeling better, I just wanted to have three good races (Hi-Plains League, regional and state),\" Ruth said. \"And I did. It's just an amazing feeling. When we got here this morning I didn't know how the day would turn out, but this is pretty good.\"\nRuth's performance was just one of many top individual efforts from southwest Kansas area individuals.\nWichita County freshman Paige Wells finished second in the Class 2A girls division. Her time of 16:35.20 was 2.4 seconds ahead of third-place finisher Katelyn Henderson from Olpe, while Sacred Heart's Ally Balderston took the top spot in 16:24.25.\nWells captured the regional title a week before at Meade.\n\"It was intimidating at the start with so many runners all bunched up together,\" Wells said. \"I felt good warming up and I felt good through the race.\"\nWells said the race start, which goes up a hill for the first 150 yards, got her attention.\n\"Ugh, it looked awful when we walked the course, but it wasn't as tough when we started running,\" Wells said.\n\"It took a while but I finally overtook some of them coming down the hill in the middle of the course. I could see (Balderston) and knew there were two others right close to me and coming down the stretch I just ran as hard as I could.\"\nThe runner-up finish came as a mild surprise to Wells, whose win in the regional was her first of the season.\n\"I thought maybe a sixth or seventh might be possible if I ran well, so I really don't have any words to describe how this feels,\" Wells said.\nWells led the Lady Indians to third place in the team competition with 121 points while Bennington (65) and Maranatha Academy (99) finished 1-2.\nIn the 3A girls division, Lakin's Julia Rosales placed 20th. She finished in 17:08.17. Scott City senior Caitlin Beckman was the top 4A girls runner with a time of 16:43.54 and a 24th place finish. Ulysses' Janni Meierhoff finished out of the medal race for the first time in her four-year career 33rd (16:50.59).\n\"It just wasn't my day, I have no excuses,\" Meierhoff said. \"I felt good before, but then when we got started my whole front thighs tightened up and I just couldn't get them loose.\"\nStanton County's Patty Perez earned a medal in the 2A girls division by placing 19th with a time of 17:21.13.\nSouth Gray senior Kayla Thomas improved her time by nearly eight seconds from 2008, but it wasn't enough as she placed seventh compared to fifth a year ago. Her time of 16:39.66 was just 2.4 seconds behind the fifth place runner.\nThree area boys runners placed in the top 20 in Class 4A with Scott City's Sam McDaniel leading the way with a surprising 10th place finish. His time of 17:12.03 enabled him to beat fellow area runners Israel Mendoza of Ulysses (12th in 17:13.19) and Hugoton's Heber Jimenez (19th in 17:28.27).\n\"It's the first full year I've done just cross country and it feels good to get a medal,\" McDaniel said. \"I dropped eight seconds off last week and this is a big achievement for me.\"\nIn the Class 3A boys race, with Holcomb rolling to the team victory and having two runners in the top five, it was left to Kayson Matthews of Lakin to make a run at the individual title after being at the top of many of the area's regular season meets including a win at last week's regional in Cimarron.\nBut the Broncs' senior faded in the final 1.5 miles after taking an early lead and indicated that he just wasn't feeling good after the race started.\n\"I was feeling good before and at the start (of the race),\" Matthews said. \"But then I started feeling a little sick and felt like I couldn't lift my legs. To go from feeling like I was going to win to this is really beyond disappointment. It was my main goal of the year. I just have to remind myself I had a good season and then there's track in the spring.\"\nGarden City's Jonny Bernasky, the lone Buffaloes' runner, placed 51st in the Class 6A race at Rim Rock Farm in Lawrence. His time was 17:26.65.",

        "raw_content": "Islamic forces in the Middle East seem to be following two opposite strategies. On one hand, forces such as Muslim Brotherhood regard United States as their ally in their attempt to rise to power in other Middle Eastern countries, considering what has happened in Egypt. This has even frightened governments such as United Arab Emirates which considers Muslim Brotherhood as a serious threat to their regime.\nOn the other hand, the strategy of forces such as Al Qaeda and Islamic Republic of Iran in the Middle East is still based on opposing the U.S.\nThe actions of Islamic Republic of Iran are very aberrant. Tehran, while similar to Al Qaeda, relies on anti-Americanism. But in the conflict between Al Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood, it tries to ally itself with Muslim Brotherhood because it sees Al Qaeda as Iran\u2019s competitor for controlling the Middle East and Islamic World. However, anti-Americanism of Islamic Republic of Iran is in contradiction with the strategy of Muslim Brotherhood. Furthermore, by getting too close to Islamic Republic of Iran, Muslim Brotherhood will lose its competition with Al Qaeda in the Arab World, because Sunni Islamists view Iran as the reason for their defeats in Afghanistan and Iraq.\nExpansion of the operations of Islamic Republic of Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guards in Syria and Iraq is also creating a deeper wedge between Sunnis and Shiites. At the same time, Arab Spring has become one of the big differences between Iran\u2019s government and the opposition (1).\nIn addition, Iran\u2019s policy toward Israel has provided Islamists in Arab countries more room to maneuver. Muslim Brotherhood has been able to gain more concessions from Israel. Meanwhile, recent mediation led by Egypt between Israel and Hamas in Gaza has strengthened Muslim Brotherhood\u2019s position in the Arab world.\nAmid all this, Turkey has shown a different record. Turkey has Muslim Brotherhood on its side, yet Al Qaeda in competition with Muslim Brotherhood does not want to get the wrath of Turkey. To this end, Al Qaeda has continued to avoid executing any terrorist activities in Turkey, whereas by organizing terrorist attacks on US embassies in Libya and hostile activities in Egypt and Tunisia, it has tried to discredit Muslim Brotherhood.",

As we opened the doors of the air-conditioned car, we were surrounded by the whining of electric saws and the rhythm of nails being hammered.\nThe walk to the hospital entrance took us past the source of the noise, and the reason why our part of the car park was full. It was given over entirely to making coffins.\nYoung men grabbed plywood sheets from foot-high stacks on the floor - the hospital has been appealing for donations of plywood - and sawed them into panels for other young men to nail together as fast as they could.\nIt took about two minutes to make one coffin, and it showed: no two were the same size, and as there was no time to sandpaper the panels, the hands of their makers were freckled with splinters.\nAs soon as a coffin was finished, it was taken to the mortuary, where a body, wrapped in plastic sheeting was placed inside.\nPhuket has few places in its refrigerated mortuaries and the island\u2019s hospitals have been appealing for donations of formalin preservative to stop bodies piled outside from decomposing beyond recognition.\nIf there was an identity card on the body when it was found, a photocopy of it was pasted on one short end of the coffin. If there wasn\u2019t, there was a photograph of the person\u2019s face. But bodies don\u2019t keep well in 30C heat, and if the face was too distorted or discoloured to be recognised, there were also photographs of their clothes, or a tattoo or a piece of distinctive jewellery.\nThe photographs have been placed on a computer in the hospital reception, and anxious people, mainly Thais, were queuing to click through them, hoping yet hoping not to find a face they recognised.\nThe coffins were carried to the hospital\u2019s underground car park, probably the coolest place on the premises.\nHalf-an-hour earlier, I had stood on a hillside and looked across the area most affected by the tsunami, where some of Patong\u2019s thriving bars, restaurants, trinket shops and tailors had previously been. It resembled a building site rather than a killing field.\nThe weather here is such that buildings don\u2019t need to be particularly substantial, and they don\u2019t leave much mess when they\u2019re wrecked, so it\u2019s sometimes hard to comprehend the magnitude of what has been visited on this so-called \u2018island paradise\u2019.\nUntil you find yourself watching men make coffin after coffin and still not make enough.\nTax Credit Crisis Left Single Mum in Hospital\nCHENNAI MORTUARY JAMMED BY UNCLAIMED BODIES.",

According to Tim Litle, founder and Chairman, no other companies at that time were developing solutions for online processing or providing the products and services in what is still considered a high-risk market by many payment professionals.\nLitle has been in the payments industry for 35 years and has seen the world change dramatically in its ability to access, receive and process online data. Additionally, the Internet revolution has changed the way consumers shop. New payment innovations enabled Litle to build proprietary software that was, he felt, the most secure and efficient in the card-not-present world.\nLitle's experience and industry savvy set the stage for his company's success. In 2006, Litle & Co. was named No. 1 on the Inc. 500 list for fastest growing company in the United States. Litle & Co. serves multichannel and Internet retailers, as well as online service providers. The company also offers multicurrency conversion services to its U.S.-based merchants who have international operations. It can process in 200 currencies and settle in nine different currencies.\nPrioritizing the merchant\nLitle & Co.'s tag line is \"The card's not present. But we are.\" Jason Pavona, the company's Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing, noted that Litle & Co.'s business philosophy revolves around asking the question: What has the company done for the merchant today? And then answering with a hands-on approach to help increase merchant revenue and reduce operational costs.\n\"We have a very high-touch organization,\" Pavona said. \"It's about us reaching out to our merchants before there is a problem, issue or question. And whether it's about minimizing expenses, increasing call center efficiency, authorization rates or fulfillment processing, we're sitting there helping them to provide the best formula for success. Our agents are paid to get the right answer and proactively go out and help a merchant grow their business.\"\nLitle's professional biography found at www.litle.com reveals he has dedicated more than three decades to developing innovations that optimally serve merchants' needs. For example, he created the first third-party fulfillment service bureau for catalogs in the 1970s. In the 1980s, he and his partners built the first payment management platform to address the needs of card-not-present merchants.\nHe was also instrumental in developing the three-digit, anti-fraud identification numbers on the backs of credit and debit cards. Litle continued to focus his expertise on card-not-present technology, and in the 1990s, he ran two online processing companies. After he sold those in 1995, he observed stagnation rather than further innovation in the field. After five years, Litle returned to the card-not-present space, intent on developing the potential he saw for new, alternative payment offerings.\n\"The ability to not only grow revenue but increase the operational efficiencies of businesses was really there,\" Pavona said. \"Tim wanted to build a platform that could generate that data, so he spent about two years creating that platform with 10 other outstanding engineers. In 2002 we started putting our first merchants on that platform and really focused 100 percent on the card-not-present market.\"\nPavona added that the company is entirely \"homegrown,\" meaning it developed proprietary boarding, reporting and accounting systems and a processing platform that connects directly to the card networks.\nEnhancing the analytics\nPavona said the Lowell, Mass.-based company is particularly excited about a new reporting and analytics platform that enables merchants to understand in real-time, and in detail, how their businesses are performing; how, why and where chargebacks are happening; and how to track authorization performance.\"We have a phenomenal ability to create very customized reports for our individual merchants that provide business intelligence into their organizations and provide them with the tools and methodologies to help them grow their business, not only on the revenue side but in their operational efficiencies as well,\" Pavona said. He added that the company also helps merchants understand the value chain and where they fit into their respective market segments.\n\"And so helping them understand chargebacks, authorizations and fraud issues, for us, just goes back to, how can I get more data back to that merchant to help them make better decisions?\" Pavona said. \"The requirements for merchants around data protection aren't getting easier. It is, unfortunately, getting much harder, and the state-by-state regulatory environment is changing every day. So it's paramount for us to deploy the best protection solutions for all consumer information.\"\nProcessing the gamut\nPlatforms built by Litle & Co. process the majority of e-commerce and direct marketing payments in the United States, according to Pavona. \"A majority of our international business is in pounds and euros, and we also have business partnerships in Asia, South America and Canada,\" he said. \"But we focus almost exclusively on U.S. businesses that have operations abroad. The landscape has changed so much in that our global footprint was an incredibly important part of having a platform that serviced merchants in the mid-sized market worldwide.\"\nLitle & Co. further expanded its operations when it teamed up with alternative payment processor PayPal Inc. in 2007. The company also implemented the products that enable payments through Bill Me Later, which PayPal acquired in 2008. Colleen Martin, Strategic Alliance Manager for PayPal, believes that Litle & Co.'s comprehensive services combined with PayPal's global online footprint have been a win-win for both organizations.\nShe added that one of the great things about working with Litle & Co. is that it is \"almost like a one-stop shop,\" where merchants can receive a private-label program, an alternative payment platform or a bill payment service - products that enable merchants to tap into a wider variety of consumer populations and generate new and incremental revenue.\n\"We continue to hear from our clients that Litle is continually strong in the area of merchant services and their ability to provide that personal touch to merchants,\" Martin said. \"They are nimble and quick, so they're able to innovate quickly and also provide detailed analytics to our merchant base. That is critical to them, as they are looking to manage their overall business and deploy their offerings to the marketplace.\"\nLitle & Co. believes in taking a holistic approach when it comes to protecting its clients, since its merchants conduct business across the country and around the world. Data protection laws, Pavona said, are different between states but even more complex and varied between the United States and other countries.\n\"It's our view that protection of consumer data, through new encryption technologies like tokenization, triple data encryption algorithm and real-time authorization is incredibly important, but you've got to look at it holistically,\" Pavona said. \"If you only look at PCI DSS [Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard], you're really doing a disservice for your business over the long term.\"\nLitle & Co. sells its products and services through a direct sales team and is always on the lookout for top talent. The company also operates a partner referral program through which it works with logistics and fulfillment houses and order-processing providers that offer payment processing services to merchants. So a consistent, standardized training model is critical for success.\nThe company implemented an in-house training program called Litle University that is designed to make sure all staff - from the Chief Executive Officer to the newest merchant services representative - are highly educated in the payments space.\n\"We want our agents to understand all the markets we serve, so this program addresses what the authorizations, settlements and cardinal rules are on certain transactions,\" Pavona said. \"It's about understanding the challenges and complexities of companies that sell goods and services directly to consumers and Internet retailers.\n\"So Litle University has gone a long way to what I would say makes our team more thought leaders and consultants within the communities they serve. We take our training very seriously.\"\nIn the end, Litle & Co.'s success is a testament to Tim Litle, Pavona believes. \"The unique platform and sales/consulting team he put together really services these merchants like no other processor or acquirer,\" he said. \"Online transactions continue to grow as people stay at home more and shop online to save money.\n\"And quite honestly, a healthier business drives down the risk that we're taking every day, and higher revenues for our merchants is obviously our number one objective.\"",

Socio-economic status indicators like education and income will become apparent. But also less tangible characteristics, such as political lenience, cultural tastes, and sometimes even personality traits are assumed in reaction to your response. Regrettably, not many people will think anything when the response is \u201chematologist\u201d.\nCompared to other medical specialities, the discipline of hematology is little known to the public, and in particular to stakeholders in politics. This may have detrimental effects on strategic issues, including regulatory affairs and the presence of hematology on the European research agenda. Research in hematology has been seminal in introducing novel diagnostic techniques such as the \u201c-omics\u201d; the first whole-genome sequencing of a malignancy concerned a hematopoietic tumor, an acute myeloid leukemia.1 Sound evidence of targeted therapy in oncology comes from groundbreaking hematologic research on leukemias and lymphomas that has changed the natural course of the disease. Following the discovery of the underlying genetic abnormality, the first targeted therapy was developed for acute promyelocytic leukemia,2 and the first application of small molecule inhibitors (imatinib in chronic myeloid leukemia) and monoclonal antibodies (alemtuzumab in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, rituximab in lymphoma) were in hematologic malignancies.3\u20138 Pivotal contributions have come from hematologists in advancing stem cell research, the impact of which greatly exceeds its disciplinary confines.9\u201311\nStill, most people are not aware of these facts. As for the reasons why our medical speciality is so little known one can only speculate. We suggest it may be caused by the scope of hematology, spanning a broad area that includes benign clinical hematology, such as thalassemias and aplastic anemia, myeloid and lymphoid malignancies, plasma cell disorders, stem cell transplantation and highly specialized treatment modalities such as gene therapy, advanced diagnostic laboratories, thrombosis and hemostasis, and transfusion medicine. So when asked, we tend to call ourselves leukemia doctors, blood clotters, stem cell specialists, or the like; not hematologists.\nWe should. Because identifying ourselves as hematologists will contribute to advancing the European research agenda towards our discipline.\nThe European Hematology Association (EHA) is undertaking a long-term strategic approach to raise the voice of hematology in Europe. Having grown into the largest European membership organization for hematologists, with an annual congress that attracts more than 9,000 delegates and a journal, Haematologica/The Hematology Journal, that is the primary general hematology journal on the continent, EHA has become the representative of hematology and hematologists in Europe. Advocating the interests of hematology, EHA focuses on public research funding and the regulatory environment of clinical trials in Europe.\nTowards the achievement of these goals, EHA has launched several initiatives (Table 1). The first has been to embed its political ambitions in its organizational structure: an Advocacy and Political Affairs Committee was installed, and human and financial resources were made available. Steps were and continue to be taken to ally with other stakeholders whose goals (partly) coincide with those of EHA, such as patient organizations, other healthcare professionals in the field of hematology, the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory authorities, other medical speciality organizations, national societies of hematology in Europe, cooperative study groups, and scientific working groups. In addition, we have responded to several consultations of the European Commission and the European Medicines Agency, and have taken part in or co-organized several meetings at and around the European Parliament.\nOne important dossier concerns the revision of the Clinical Trials Directive (CTD). The Directorate-General for Health and Consumers of the European Commission issued a concept paper outlining the Commission\u2019s intentions towards revising the CTD.12 The Commission acknowledges the shortcomings of the current directive, most prominently illustrated by the 20% drop in applications for clinical trials in the EU over the last four years, from 5,028 in 2007 to 4,193 in 2010, and the concomitant drop in the number of trial participants from approximately 500,000 to 400,000 over the same period.\nUnder the current directive, a multi-national trial, even when it has a single protocol, must be submitted to and assessed by the competent authorities and ethical committees in each of the EU member states in which the trial is taking place. What is more, the authorization procedures of the member states are taking place in complete isolation from each other. This makes for an unnecessarily cumbersome, long and expensive process. These problems will only be exacerbated as national trials lose relevance in the advent of personalized medicine. Increasingly, diseases will be further subdivided into sub-entities rendering them, in fact, rare diseases. This seriously limits the capability of clinical study groups to find enough eligible participants in a single country to recruit into a trial sample in any reasonable time frame. As a result, more and more trials are expected to be performed multi-nationally, with all its consequences. Therefore, EHA has repeatedly made the case to the European Commission to introduce a single submission system, to harmonize the assessment procedure, and to centralize approval of clinical trials.\nEHA\u2019s main Advocacy and Political Affairs activities.\nIn addition, the increased bureaucratic burden and increased costs have, in the context of limited public funds, had an even more negative effect on the ability to conduct academic trials. Contrary to its initial goal to increase patient safety, the CTD actually worsened the situation for patients in terms of clinical trials designed to assess the effect and best practice in the use of licensed drugs. For instance, post-authorization academic trials may reduce toxicities and costs by combining new off-label drugs at lower doses. Also, the absence of a risk-based approach to patient safety ignores the willingness of patients with life-threatening diseases to offset the risks associated with the experimental drug with the risk of dying.\nAnother important dossier concerns the European public research agenda. The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) for Research and Innovation of the European Commission has produced a startlingly low number of hematologic research projects. So far, only five hematologic research projectsi appear to have been awarded funds in the Health Programme of FP7.13 Two other projectsii may be considered related to hematology. Hence, of the \u2190 6.1 billion that is allocated to research in health, only \u2190 56.6 million has been spent on hematologic and related projects. That is less than one percent of the health research budget.\nYet, the most prevalent disease in the world is a non-malignant hematologic disease. The World Health Organization states in the latest update of the Global Burden of Disease that \u201cat any given moment, more individuals have iron-deficiency anemia than any other health problems. Even in high-income countries, iron deficiency is common\u201d.14 Likewise, a number of highly prevalent non-malignant diseases, which include anemias, coagulation disorders, and hemophilia, are investigated by hematologists treating pediatric or adult patients. The impact, for instance, of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) was estimated in a study of six EU countriesiii (with a combined population of 310.4 million) to reach numbers of over 761,000 per year and the number of VTE-related deaths to exceed 370,000.15\nWorse, none of the projects that have received funding from the FP7 Health Research Programme of the Commission address hematologic malignancies, while blood cancers are among the most devastating diseases known to medicine. Combined, the mortality of leukemia, Hodgkin\u2019s and non-Hodgkin\u2019s lymphomas, and multiple myeloma ranks third after lung cancer and colo-rectal cancer. In the European Union member states alone, more than 95,000 people die each year of hematologic cancers.16 Given the nature and epidemiology of the diseases, they are most prevalent among some of the most vulnerable European citizens: children and the ageing.\nThe European Commission is, in the context of the Multiannual Financial Framework of 2014\u20132020, rolling out budget proposals for each sector, including Research and Innovation. Horizon 2020, as the successor of FP7 is called, was proposed to the European Parliament and the Council on November 30, 2011.17 The \u2018societal challenge\u2019 of Health, demographic change and wellbeing has been allocated \u2190 8.6 billion; up from \u2190 6.1 billion in FP7. EHA welcomes the proposed increase. But in relative terms, as a percentage of the total budget for Research and Innovation, the budget has remained roughly the same. Together with the Alliance for Biomedical Research in Europe, of which EHA is a member, we will keep pushing for a budget increase for health research now that the proposal is in co-decision procedure of the European Parliament and the Council. Most importantly, EHA will keep advocating for funding of hematologic research.\nIn advocating the causes of hematology and its practitioners, EHA is often hampered by a lack of understanding of what hematology is. Whereas in academia and the medical communities hematology is a respected discipline, politicians, civil servants and the public are rarely aware that the speciality of hematology even exists. And if they do, our speciality is fragmented into malignant diseases (an appendix to oncology) and benign diseases like anemia or blood coagulation; and many of the diseases we treat and explore are subsumed under \u2018rare diseases\u2019. Before being able to make political claims, we need to raise political and public awareness that ours is a comprehensive discipline of excellent reputation.\nHere is where you come in. When asked about your profession, consider responding with a proud \u201chematologist\u201d, possibly extended with \u201cspecialized in...\u201d. Try to reveal to your patients and to your friends and acquaintances that you are part of a long and impressive tradition of specialists in blood diseases. If hematologists themselves identify with their speciality and will promote its existence and its unity, we will be in a position to represent and advocate your interests effectively.\ni BLUEPRINT - A BLUEPRINT of Haematopoietic Epigenomes; ACUSEP - Integrated whole blood coustophoresis and homogeneous nucleic acid detection cartridge for rapid sepsis diagnostics; SYBILLA - Systems biology of T-cell activation in health and disease; T-REC - Building research capacity of blood transfusion services in Africa; STEMEXPAND - Stem cell expansion - expansion and engraftment of haematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells.\nii DIATOOLS - Tools for minimally invasive diagnostics; PROACTIVE - High throughput proteomics systems for accelerated profiling of putative plasma biomarkers.\niii France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.\nThom Duyven\u00e9 de Wit is Lobbyist at the European Hematology Association.

        "raw_content": "\u201cI never thought it would come to this.\u201d I\u2019ve heard those words too many times to consider it a coincidence. Too many times good people, devastated by the consequences of their own decisions and actions, naively admit they never saw it coming. They were blind to the insidious power of incremental decay.\nIncrementalism is to ethical integrity what high blood pressure is to your health. They both share the label of silent killer. But there is a huge difference in the end. If you suffer from high blood pressure your doctor can prescribe a drug regimen to control it. But if, over time, little ethical lapses congeal in your life, deadening your resistance and allowing larger and larger indiscretions to create a new normal, you will find yourself facing some difficult options.\nGoing back will demand you admit your waywardness, and halt some actions you\u2019ve become quite attached to, while going forward will mean eventually dealing with heartbreak and tragedy. That\u2019s why most just deceive themselves into thinking they can control everything in their lives, and dismiss out of hand the danger of their incremental slide into a self-deceiving, self-destroying lifestyle.\nAnd why do we start down the path of incremental self-destruction? Here are a few of the launch pads from which we all too readily blast off into patterns of life that ultimately leave us in a bad place.\nPride: Pride is tricky because it comes in both positive and negative packages. When we look at our children doing well, or in a project that has been successfully and ethically completed, it is good and right to feel a sense of pride. This kind of pride comes packaged in an accompanying sense of true humility. We look and see something good and must admit we were only a small part of the success. It is this humility that keeps the pride where it should be: anchored in someone else\u2019s success rather than in our own selfishness.\nBut most of the time pride starts in our own hearts. We come to believe we are better than we are, and more deserving of other\u2019s focus than we should. Our culture screams this at us all the time, and it is very hard not to believe we are the center of the universe and that everyone else better recognize that. This pride builds in us a false sense of entitlement, which morphs into a perverted type of freedom. Because we\u2019re so great, we can do whatever feels good, and this launches us out from the guardrails of integrity and discipline into the fast lane of selfishness.\nSelfishness: This desire to please ourselves, if given its head, will incrementally knock over the two guardrails that line the path of ethical living. Selfishness gnaws away at discipline, ask any of the millions who buy gym memberships in January, show up through February, make excuses until June, and then cancel their memberships. Eventually, selfishness sees discipline as an obstacle to freedom of thought and action, and plows right through the guardrail of integrity. After all, you are the captain of your own ship, right? You can sail wherever and whenever it feels right!\nChances are you\u2019ve never thought along these lines, but it is certain you\u2019ve experienced the steady pressure of incrementalism in your life. And it is certain you\u2019ve watched others\u2019 lives blow up and wondered how it came to be.\nMost lives, relationships, businesses, and dreams don\u2019t blow up all at once. The forces that destroy them start small, seemingly insignificant, as ethical convictions are pushed aside \u201cjust this once.\u201d We always think small indiscretions, momentary lapses, harmless fantasies, and one-time transgressions have no momentum, but they do. They chart an alternate way of thinking and living, the continuation of which can pump us full of false hopes and dreams whose appetite for more and more stimulation can carry you away from the reality you always hoped for. And in the end, you may find yourself saying \u201cI never thought it would come to this.\u201d\nMy advice is simple. Strengthen your guardrails, and your resolve, and set your face firmly toward all that is right. No one ever said, on their deathbed, \u201cI sure wish I had lived a life with less integrity and discipline.\u201d And if you determine to be the person God created you to be, finding your life in him and his provision, you\u2019ll end up with a life, and an eternal future about which you can say \u201cAh, yes, this is what I always wanted it to come to.\u201d\n\u2190 Promises to Your Self Worth KeepingWhat's Love God To Do With It? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "WHY HERMAN CONSTRUCTION?\nWelcome to Herman Construction Services\nWhen it comes to integrity, service, and professionalism, Herman Construction Services, Inc. is a leading commercial general building contractor in Florida. These three principles form the core of its existence, instilled there since 1977 by its founder, Gene Herman.\nThere is more to being a great company than being successful. Great companies are passionate about their work, their values and their beliefs. Herman Construction Services, Inc. delivers on these principles \u2013 day in and day out.\nCheck out this time lapse video from one of our projects, St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church.\nSt. Gregory Parishioners Celebrate Easter In New Church\nApril 1, 2010 \u2013 For thousands of families who worship at St. Gregory the Great Catholic Church in Plantation, this year's Easter services also joyously commemorated the rebirth of their beloved church. Herman Construction Services, Inc. completed its $6 million renovation and addition in time for the parishioners to celebrate Holy Thursday's mass in their bigger, airy, more open church. As the faithful filled St. Gregory on Thursday, they got to enjoy the fruits of their fundraising efforts - the statuesque 109 foot tall bell tower; the larger 1,300-seat sanctuary, which can accommodate an additional 250 people; new stained-glass windows; the marble altar and tabernacle. Other new features include new meeting rooms, a bride's room and two angel rooms for families with small children. Television monitors, new high definition cameras with two retractable viewing screens and a new expanded gift shop highlight the new features at St. Gregory.\nGene Herman Receives Multiple Career Honors\nNovember 3, 2009 \u2013 Gene Herman was acknowledged with two special career honors. Mr. William Laurie, owner of the American Heritage School in Plantation, awarded Gene with a permanently placed plaque at the school to pay tribute to 31 years of construction projects that helped the Plantation campus grow from one single story classroom building in 1978 to the thriving 40 acre campus it is today. Currently with over 250,000 square feet of educational facilities on campus, Herman Construction Services has been privileged to be the only general contractor for Mr. Laurie since 1978 and takes great pride in the partnership it has enjoyed with American Heritage Schools, both at the Plantation campus as well as the Delray Beach campus. At the ceremony was Mrs. Rae Carole Armstrong, the mayor of Plantation, to award Gene a proclamation calling November 3rd, 2009 \u201cGene Herman Appreciation Day\u201d in the City of Plantation.\nReaching New Heights at St. Gregory's\nAugust 13, 2009 - The ongoing renovation of the St. Gregory the Great Catholic Church project reached new heights in late July when the golden dome and cross were strategically hoisted into place at the top of the new church tower. With the addition of the new cross the structure extends to a height of 109 feet making it one of the more beautiful and prominent landmarks in the City of Plantation. The multimillion dollar renovation is on schedule for parishioners to start enjoying their new church in the Spring of 2010.\n\u00a92009 Herman Construction Services, Inc.",

        "raw_content": "\u2026 where we come from\nIn the year of 1898, Heinrich Martin Seuffert founded a sawmill in Kleinwallstadt/Main, Bavaria. His pioneer work as well as his initials are the basis for the family-owned company HMS-HOLZ. At that time we were looking for a complementary use for a steamengine which served as a driving means for a thresher machine during harvest so far. So it came about that the founder of the company produced sawn timber for all kinds of purposes from trees of various wood species by using a horizontal framesaw.\nThe company\u2019s history of the second generation was determined by the confusion of World War II. As a young man Adam Anton Seuffert had to \u2013 like many others \u2013 leave his home and did not return to Kleinwallstadt until years after the end of the war. During this time, his wife Barbara Seuffert carried on the fate of the company and besides that provided for her two children Anne Rose and Heinrich Anton.\nAt the end of the sixties Heinrich Anton Seuffert relocated the sawmill to a newly set up nearby industrial area. At the same time they specialized in softwood and significantly extended their capacity. Today, HMS-HOLZ is run in the fourth generation with two sawmill and planing mill sites in Germany. Sawn timber and planing-mill products for construction works, garden architecture, packaging and many others are produced from domestic coniferous roundwood coming from sustainably cultivated forests, by means of modern chipper circular saw-profiling techniques.",

        "raw_content": "Musical genius - less talented in certain other areas\n29.05.2014. On Friday 16 May, my wife and I attended a concert with the Greek artist Yanni, held in Grand Concert Hall Oktyabrskiy, Saint Petersburg.\nAll in all it was a great evening, but I admit to being quite disappointed when between songs Yanni mentioned an astronaut who had looked down on earth and made the 'profound' observation that the borders between our countries are not visible from space, and then continued with remarks to the effect that borders represent (more or less) arbitrary and unnecessary limitations on our freedom.\nAccording to Wikipedia, Yanni's music is said to reflect his \u00abone world, one people\u00bb philosophy, so with that in mind there was no reason to be surprised. Even so, it is a bit astonishing that such a gifted man would use such a pathetic 'argument' to help promote his message.\nBeing in favor of peace and love and everything else that is nice, and being against war and hatred and everything else that is bad, is all good and well. But utopian visions of a future that does not take human nature into account, is bound to fail, and are therefore also bound to exacerbate our situation rather than resolve our challenges and problems.\nNow, Yanni may not be inclined to listen to advice from a conservative and theistic commentator like yours truly. However, perhaps he would be more willing to listen to a liberal and atheistic psychologist who has become world famous for his groundbreaking work in understanding the human mind and its so-called moral matrix?\nMy recommendation to Yanni is that when his currently ongoing world tour comes to an end, and he again has time to reflect on important issues, he should sit down and read Jonathan Haidt's book The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion.\nActually, if Yanni wonders whether or not this is a reasonable recommendation, he could ask some of his friends in PBS, and they will almost certainly be able to point him in the direction of one or more interviews with Haidt, which could wet his appetite for said book.\nFor my own part, if I get a chance to attend some future Yanni concert, I will be carefully listening for any signs of philosophical sophistication exceeding the level recently demonstrated in Saint Petersburg.\n\u00abMulticulturalism is part of a larger human rights revolution involving ethnic and racial diversity\u00bb\n07.05.2014. Karl Mannheim\u2019s concept of free-floating intellectuals engaged in the production of knowledge unconcerned with personal motives and interests has long attracted liberal academics uncomfortable with Karl Marx\u2019s argument that knowledge is ultimately a reflection of one\u2019s class interest, because it offered an image of themselves as self-sacrificing men pursuing truth objectively for the sake of humanity. Will Kymlicka, the most influential advocate of the \u201cexceptional\u201d Canadian model of \u201cimmigrant multiculturalism,\u201d is generally seen in this light, an academic who produces research for the benefit of everyone in the world. Thus writes Ricardo Duchesne in his article Will Kymlicka and the disappearing Dominion. He continues (boldface emphasis added, italics in original):\nKymlicka is not an original thinker in the manner of John Rawls, Eric Voegelin, or Jurgen Habermas, but his research is relied upon by all the mainstream political parties, universities, and NGOs. He is a most trusted intellectual ostensibly standing above petty motives and crass interests. He is arguably the best connected and best funded academic in Canada, regularly producing papers commissioned by government agencies and corporations, including Forum of Federations, ICCS, Citizenship and Immigration Canada and the Transatlantic Council on Migration.\nMainstream readers have criticized him from the left as a centrist who defends liberal institutions, and from the right as a collectivist who advocates special rights for minorities. He is the man in the middle. In this essay, I will show that Kymlicka is in truth an advocate of the overthrow of the traditional European-centred culture of Canada, of mass immigration and of racially mixed states across the Western world.\nKymlicka holds, currently, the Canada Research Chair in Political Philosophy at Queen\u2019s University in Kingston. Best known for the elaboration of a liberal theory of minority rights, with particular reference to Canada, he has been tremendously effective in this endeavour. Since the mid-1980s when he was a grad student, he has received, every single year without interruption, highly lucrative grants and awards, including the Premier\u2019s Discovery Award in 2009 ($250,000), the Trudeau Foundation Fellowship in 2005-2008 ($225,000), and the Killam Prize in Social Sciences in 2004 ($100,000). He has held visiting professorships and fellowships outside Canada every year since coming to Kingston in 1998. Around the world his books have been accepted as part of the official consensus on multiculturalism in Canada, translated into 32 languages. While portraying himself as an outsider fighting the dominant Eurocentric discourse, he is best viewed as Canada\u2019s government-sanctioned ideologue of multicultural citizenship.\nThis last commissioned report by Kymlicka is interesting in that it exhibits some efforts on his part to address the growing discontent in Europe over immigration. He announces in the opening pages: \u201cMulticulturalism is part of a larger human rights revolution involving ethnic and racial diversity\u201d. The \u201cracially biased immigration and citizenship policies\u201d of the past cannot be allowed as a matter of ultimate belief. The goal is to \u201cchallenge the legacies of earlier ethnic and racial hierarchies.\u201d The \u201cexplicitly\u201d racist immigration policies of the past \u201cceased by the 1960s and 1970s,\u201d but \u201cethnic and racial hierarchies persist\u201d in the West. As long as ethnic Europeans remain dominant demographically and culturally in their countries, these racial hierarchies will not be transcended. The final goal is the \u201cequality of the races and peoples\u201d inside European lands. (25)\nThe implicit logic is that, since Europeans believe in freedom of choice and expression, it follows that they prefer more cultures inside their nations to improve the \u201cquality and richness\u201d of their choices. I say \u201cimplicit\u201d because Kymlicka does not debate whether the choices of Europeans will continuously improve as their culture is overwhelmed by diversity and forced to relinquish their \u201cdeep bond\u201d to their heritage. He does not differentiate either the \u201cdeep diversity\u201d he wants (in which Europeans will be reduced, in his words, to \u201ca constantly shrinking minority\u201d) and the diversity Canadians already enjoyed in 1971 when multiculturalism was announced as an official policy, when the ethnic distribution of the country was: British (44.6%), French (28.7%), German (6.1%), Italian (3.4%), Ukrainian (2.7%), Dutch (2.0% ), Scandinavian (1.8% ), Polish (1.5), Jewish (1.4%),), Other Europe (4.2%), Asian (1.3%), and Aboriginal (1.3). (27) All Canadians in 1971, regardless of ethnicity and religious affiliation, enjoyed the same liberal rights. What was it about this diversity that was lacking in quality and choices? Kymlicka never asks this simple question in his voluminous writings, opining that:\n\u2026It is difficult to avoid the conclusion that much of the backlash against multiculturalism arises from a racist or xenophobic fear of these new immigrant groups (1995: 179).\nThe vast majority of Canadians would never have endorsed policies that target them as oppressors to be dispossessed if the ultimate intentions of this ideology were presented to them by critics with equal access to the public space and without fear of demonization and loss of livelihood. Kymlicka only offers idealized versions of an imagined future. (28), but in between the lines one can detect the mind of someone intent on destroying Canada\u2019s Christian European heritage. [...] In other words, he is anticipating a point in Canada\u2019s history when the entire \u201csocietal culture\u201d will be neutered and neutralized away from any Eurocentric characteristic. In this vein, he endorses as well the rewriting of Canada\u2019s history in order to give an equal voice to diverse ethnicities in the making of Canada.\n\u201cNever again,\u201d Kymlicka demands, should Canada be viewed as a \u201cwhite country \u2026 as a British country.\u201d (29) Today, one in five Canadians is foreign-born, and Kymlicka is still encouraging more immigration and diversity. Major newspapers, academic and corporate elites alike, are calling for a doubling of Canada\u2019s intake of immigrants from 250,000 to 500,000, with the goal of raising the population from 35 to 100 million by the end of the century. Kymlicka and liberal elites generally believe that immigrant multiculturalism is the final stage in the march towards racial equality. This equality is obviously illusionary. White-created nations are the only ones experimenting with this ideology. What is not illusionary is that Canada is steadily becoming a nation overwhelmed by diverse cultures. A majority (70.2%) of the foreign-born population in 2006 reported a mother tongue other than English or French. The Muslim, Hindu, Sikh and Buddhist faiths amounted to 33 per cent of those immigrants who arrived between 2001 and 2011. Canada\u2019s visible minority population is projected to make up one third of the population by the year 2031. Toronto and Vancouver are projected to become \u201cmajority-minority\u201d cities in 2031, with the non-European ethnic population at 63 and 59 percent respectively. Similar massive increases are anticipated in all of Canada\u2019s major cities. As it is, aboriginals are expected to become between 21 and 24 per cent of the population of the province of Saskatchewan, and between 18 and 21 percent of the population of Manitoba by 2031.\nThe end of European Canada is now an impending reality. It is high time Kymlicka offered an explanation to native Canadians why they should accept policies that are fast reducing them to a minority within their own homelands. Given that humans by nature have a \u201cvery deep bond\u201d to their ethnic and cultural identity, why should European Canadians be precluded from having a vital stake in retaining their culture, traditions and ethnic identity, the same stake Kymlicka attributes to non-Europeans? Kymlicka needs to address this question, otherwise his life\u2019s work and career is submerged by contradictions, whose only coherency is its animus to Canada\u2019s founding peoples.\nRicardo Duchesne is Professor of Sociology at the University of New Brunswick, and the author of The Uniqueness of Western Civilization.\nRead the entire article in Quarterly Review.",

I was so exhausted that I would fall asleep at traffic lights!\nI started putting our company's products into my body and I experienced an increase in energy and stamina.

And while there are many things I enjoy, I think one of the problems I\u2019ve had is how hamfisted they are about their social commentary. The word \u201csubtle\u201d does not exist in the world of \u201cThe Purge\u201d and their first promotional material continues that trend.\nSo earlier today we got our first look at the poster for the upcoming \u201cPurge\u201d prequel titled \u201cThe First Purge.\u201d On the poster, which you can see below, the title is embroidered on the infamous red hat which often features the \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d slogan. So yeah, you can see where this is going.\nAnd then, as if Universal said \u201cI think we can do better than that\u201d, they released the announcement trailer for \u201cThe First Purge\u201d during the State of the Union speech. So what is \u201cThe First Purge\u201d? Here\u2019s a description for you:\nBehind every tradition lies a revolution. Next Independence Day, witness the rise of our country\u2019s 12 hours of annual lawlessness. Welcome to the movement that began as a simple experiment: The First Purge. To push the crime rate below one percent for the rest of the year, the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA) test a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community. But when the violence of oppressors meets the rage of the marginalized, the contagion will explode from the trial-city borders and spread across the nation.\n\u201cThe First Purge\u201d is directed by Gerard McMurray from a script written by franchise creator James DeMonaco. It\u2019ll hit theaters on July 4th.",

        "raw_content": "hothotstore August 10, 2016\t No comments\nAs a California driver, one of your many responsibilities involves understanding the new laws that are coming down the pike. New laws tend to effect large populations of California\u2019s drivers, so it is always a good idea to know what\u2019s going to be on the books for the coming months and years. In terms of new laws for California drivers in 2016, there are several things worth understanding.\nNew 2016 Traffic Laws for Californians\nThe California Department of Motor Vehicles has a number of new laws for 2016 Californian motorists. If you want to avoid fines or worse, you will want to be aware of the laws that have changed, the laws that have been introduced, and more.\nFor example, upon your first DUI offense, the laws in California will require you to have an Ignition Interlock Device installed on your vehicle. This breathalyzer device will not allow you to start your vehicle, if your blood-alcohol level goes above a certain point. First-time offenders will be required to have this device on their vehicle for five months. Repeat offenders can look forward to longer sentences.\nThe law has also changed, when it comes to earbuds or headsets. Under the new law, you cannot have earbuds or headsets covering both of your ears, while you are operating a motor vehicle or bike. This law will not apply to those who are working with an authorized emergency vehicle. There are additional exemptions, particularly as it relates to the use of protective, essential ear coverings on the job.\nMany of the new laws for California drivers are designed with crucial safety considerations in mind, something long needed to keep the roads safe. A good example of this would be the new laws pertaining to electrically motorized skateboards or electric bikes. The skateboards will now have limited/prohibited use in certain areas, and riders will need to have the proper safety equipment. With bikes, the new law has established three classes of vehicles that you will want to keep in mind. There are additional elements to both of these laws that must be appreciated, such as the law now prohibiting skateboard riders in areas in which the speed limit is above thirty-five miles per hour.\nAdditional Laws for California Motorists\nOne new California DMV law for 2016 isn\u2019t going to directly impact you on the road. However, it will prove to be a profound change for many. Of course, we are referring to the new law that states that any Californian who obtains or renews their license will also be instantly registered to vote within the state. However, if you do not wish to be registered to vote, you will be given the ability to choose the opt-out option.\nEven so, the move is being applauded by many for working to create a greater body of voters.\nThere is also a new law that pertains to Transportation Network Companies. In this regard, we are referring to companies like Uber or Lyft. Under the new law, these companies will be responsible for reviewing the records of their drivers. In order to do this, they will be given the ability to utilize a DMV program. In other words, if there is an accident, a violation, or a driver\u2019s license suspension, these companies will now be able to find out.\nBeginning July 1st, anyone who is seeking out an original driver\u2019s license or I.D. card will need to be able to prove that they are indeed residents of the state.\nAll of the laws above cover many of the news laws that are now on the books for California drivers. At the same time, note that we haven\u2019t covered all of the laws. You may also want to research certain laws in greater detail, if you believe that law is going to play a significant role in your life.\nThere is a Yellow Alert System that you may want to learn more about. There is also a Silver Alert System that you should check out. Under the Yellow Alert System, the focus is going to be on hit-and-run incidents that end with deaths or severe injury. Through the Silver Alert System, changeable message signs can now be utilized in the retrieval of elderly/disabled individuals who are believed to be in some sort of danger. Development sin the law and technology seldom go hand in hand, but one state is trying their best.\nPosted in insurance, new laws, Northern California, Tips",

        "title": "Beginning of the End: Anti-Rape Campaign",
        "raw_content": "Beginning of the End: Anti-Rape Campaign\nNine months after doom\u2019s day, the Haitian consciousness is perplexed, traumatized and scattered. Reality has settled in: there will neither be Moses nor his wand at the sea of debris. Sparks of progress are sporadic, but gradually painting a postmodern, post-quake impression. In addition, Haitians grow increasingly wary of parliament and presidential elections on Nov. 28, 2010, which could mean another opportunity for a power grab given the frail state of the country. There is growing unrest in the displacement camps as the residents grow anxious over land disputes in the capital while other parts of the country have yet to see any pragmatic recovery efforts.\nNevertheless, the vulnerable and voiceless victims received some good news in September when Edmund Mulet, head of the U.N. stabilization mission in Haiti, announced the anti-rape campaign. He noted there was a public relations campaign currently under way to teach people how to prevent and respond to rapes and other sexual attacks. Among its various target publics is the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH), which \u2013Mulet noted\u2013 was undergoing additional training to handle rape and sexual violence at the camps.\nJust over two years ago, on June 19, 2008, the U.N. Security Council unanimously adoptedResolution 1820 emphasizing, \u201crape and other forms of sexual violence can constitute war crimes, crimes against humanity or a constitutive act with respect to genocide.\u201d The text of the resolution affirmed the Council\u2019s readiness to, where necessary, adopt steps to address systematic sexual violence deliberately targeting civilians, or as a part of a widespread campaign against civilian populations. However, it has taken nine months and scores of women and children victims before Haiti saw the emergence of an anti-rape campaign.\nArguably, Haiti is not a \u201cwar-ravaged\u201d country, yet the apocalyptic catastrophes are not dissimilar: piles of rubble make up the landscape, millions displaced in unsecured camps and thousands of women and children victimized by assailants. Furthermore, there are thousands of foreign military personnel roaming the streets and a government struggling to find itself. Mulet acknowledged the nearly impossible odds his forces face. Only a 200-member U.N. police force maintains a permanent presence in six especially high-risk camps housing 135,000 people, he complained to the Associated Press. Even with a highly trained MINUSTAH, such ratio does little to protect the victims and may even encourage criminal behaviors.\nWhile a public relation campaign and training are essential to raise awareness and eventually help eradicate the problem, many complained that the initiative was shortsighted. The plan offered no details about apprehension and prosecution of perpetrators. There was no mention of the role the legislative body or any human right legislation. He made no reference about any coping mechanism to aid the victims with their post traumatic ordeals, many of who are pregnant teens. In addition, foreign peacekeepers could not respond to violent situations with any degree of certainty because of language barriers, another deterrent to tangible solutions. As U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice argued, efforts to stop sexual and gender-based violence \u00ab must be part of a wider effort to empower women throughout the reconstruction process. \u00bb She did however describe the plan as a \u201dpositive\u201d step in the right direction.\nIn a recent turn of events, many now blame post-quake conditions and institutional weaknesses for the resurgence of gang activities that are typical of governmental instability and election seasons in Haiti. The Aspen Daily News reported the kidnapping \u2013 at gunpoint\u2013 of Gilbert Chenet, a 50-year-old engineer for Mercy & Sharing on Sept. 14. Chenet\u2019s role, in the wake of the earthquake, has been instrumental to the Aspen-based nonprofit organization. He oversaw rehabilitative processes of the organization\u2019s damaged schools and orphanages. Two days later, Chenet was released after his family raised and paid a ransom to the kidnappers.\nThese troubling developments may be indicative of future criminal behavioral trends. In addition to the women and children at the camps, violence could spill over into the relief community, actions that could pose a grave threat to an already slow recovery process. Hence, any plan addressing these atrocities must be robust and capable of halting perilous circumstances years after the foreign forces leave Haiti. U.N. Ambassador Philip Parham echoed those sentiments saying the U.N force \u00ab must continue to do its utmost to aid the development of local policing capabilities \u00bb so that the Haitian police force no longer relies on U.N. troops \u00ab as the main providers of security \u00bb in the country.\nResolution 1820 refers to rapes and gendered-based violence as \u201ca tactic used to humiliate, dominate, instill fear, disperse and/or forcibly relocate civilian members of a community or ethnic group\u201d. It also stresses that such violence could significantly exacerbate conflicts and impede peace processes, or in the case of Haiti, derail the rebuilding process completely. With such strong language, many Haitians argued, the lack of an immediate response from the United Nations to increasing violence in displacement camps is unjustifiable.",

Chamikara\nIndex Terms: - Adjacency matrix , Hadamard Matrices ,k-regular graphs , Latin Square , Simple Graphs ,Strongly Regular Graphs, Tensor Product.\nAbstract: - This paper proposes an algorithm which can be used to construct strongly regular graphs from Hadamard matrices.A graph G is strongly regular if there are integers \u03bb and \u03bc such that every two adjacent vertices have \u03bb common neighbours and every two non adjacent vertices have \u03bc common neighbors. Proposed method is mainly based on basic matrix manipulations. If the order of the normalized Hadamard matrix is n the resulting strongly regular graph will have n x n number of vertices. Therefore the simplest strongly regular graph generated from this method has 16 vertices since its predecessor normalized Hadamard matrix has the order of 4. This algorithm was implemented using C++ programming language. Then the algorithm was tested for large Hadamard matrices and the results proved that this method is correct and works for any normalized Hadamard matrix of order greater than or equal to 4.\nWallis, J.

        "raw_content": "A new service for rating restaurants has released its first results for New York City, and the winners are: Eleven Madison Park, Atera and a host of similar restaurants that often end up on such lists.\nThe system is called Renzell. Created by Bo Peabody, an entrepreneur who owns restaurants in Massachusetts, it claims to report the experience of high-end diners more accurately than professional critics, books like the Michelin Guides, collected ratings on Yelp and in the Zagat guides or rankings like the World\u2019s 50 Best Restaurants do.\nRenzell\u2019s rating panel consists of more than 2,000 members, many of whom answered the company\u2019s call for people who dine out frequently at upscale restaurants; word of mouth attracted many participants. They dine at a selected group of restaurants at their own expense, anonymously, then use an app to complete a lengthy questionnaire about the experience. The data they submit is run through an algorithm that the company has developed to determine the rankings.\nTheir top choice for overall quality is Eleven Madison Park, which also received the highest rating for design and for cocktails. Atera was named best for food and service. Betony won for hospitality; the NoMad delivered the most \u201cvibe,\u201d as the company put it; Momofuku Ko was the winner for \u201cwine, sake and beer\u201d; Contra was ranked best for value.\nA list of rankings (the top 15 restaurants in each of nine categories) is at renzell.com.\nVoters were given a list of about 70 New York restaurants that Renzell selected for various characteristics like atmosphere, reputation of the chef, other ratings and awards. The restaurants have to have been in business for at least two years and to be what Mr. Peabody says are of a certain caliber, offering \u201ca complete dining experience with thoughtful food, beverage and design.\u201d\nThey include Le Bernardin and Brooklyn spots like Traif and the Pines. The list does not include any steakhouses, which Mr. Peabody said were \u201ctoo formulaic.\u201d\n\u201cThe world of data collection has taken over every industry except for restaurants,\u201d said Mr. Peabody, who has a partner, Jacob Lewis, a former magazine editor, and other investors. \u201cThe audience we\u2019re going after is dying for this information. We\u2019re trying to root out subjectivity. What we\u2019re doing is scientific.\u201d\nOr is it? Though Mr. Peabody contends that his system taps a more knowledgeable voting base than many other rankings, it\u2019s based on subjective evaluations. Members are not routinely asked to submit bills to prove they ate at a restaurant, though Mr. Peabody said the company spot-checks with restaurants to verify that. To join, members must attest that they have no ties to the restaurant industry or the media; Renzell does not regularly question responses, but says it has rejected a few members.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not fraud-proof,\u201d Mr. Peabody said, but he is confident that the volume of members minimizes any potential distortion.\nIn return for their help, members can receive perks like the use of Renzell\u2019s concierge service, which makes reservations and arranges experiences like private tastings at restaurants such as Marea.\nNew rankings will be issued once a year, in September. Updates will also be posted every four months. Restaurants that subscribe to the service (for an annual fee of $499 to $1,499, depending on their size) are sent more-detailed data on their own and others\u2019 rankings.\nRenzell is compiling ratings for Chicago and San Francisco, to be released early next year.\nA version of this article appears in print on September 14, 2016, on page D3 of the New York edition with the headline: A New Set of Ratings, From Well-Heeled Diners.",

        "title": "Does children's birthday put them at risk of ADHD?",
        "raw_content": "Home > HEALTH > Health News > Does children's birthday put them at risk of ADHD?\nA new study led by Harvard Medical School researchers indicate, a child\u2019s birthday put them at risk for an ADHD. The findings, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, show children born in August in the United States are 30 percent more likely to receive an ADHD diagnosis, compared with their slightly older peers enrolled in the same grade.\nWashington (ISJ) - Could a child's birthday put them at risk for an Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) misdiagnosis? The answer appears to be yes, at least among children born in August who start school in the United States with a Sept. 1 cut-off enrolment date, according to a new study led by Harvard Medical School researchers.\nThe findings, published in the latest edition of The New England Journal of Medicine, show that children born in August are 30 percent more likely to receive an ADHD diagnosis, compared with their slightly older peers enrolled in the same grade.\nThe rate of ADHD diagnoses among children has risen dramatically over the past 20 years. In 2016 alone, more than 5 percent of U.S. children were being actively treated with medication for ADHD. Experts believe the rise is fuelled by a combination of factors, including a greater recognition of the disorder, a true rise in the incidence of the condition and, in some cases, improper diagnosis.\nThe results of the new study underscore the notion that at least in a subset of elementary school students, the diagnosis may be a factor of earlier school enrolment, the research team said.\n\"Our findings suggest the possibility that large numbers of kids are being over diagnosed and overtreated for ADHD because they happen to be relatively immature compared to their older classmates in the early years of elementary school,\" said study lead author Timothy Layton, assistant professor of health care policy in the Blavatnik Institute at HMS.\nMost states have arbitrary cut-off birth dates that determine which grade a child will be placed in and when they can start school. In states with a Sept. 1 cut-off, a child born on August 31 will be nearly a full year younger on the first day of school than a classmate born on Sept. 1.\nAt this age, Layton noted, the younger child might have a harder time sitting still and concentrating for long periods of time in class. That extra amount of fidgeting may lead to a medical referral, Layton said, followed by diagnosis and treatment for ADHD.\nFor example, the researchers said, what may be normal behaviour in a boisterous 6-year-old could seem relatively abnormal relative to the behaviour of older peers in the same classroom.\nThis dynamic may be particularly true among younger children given that an 11- or 12-month difference in age could lead to significant differences in behaviour, the researchers added.\n\"As children grow older, small differences in age equalize and dissipate over time, but behaviourally speaking, the difference between a 6-year-old and a 7-year-old could be quite pronounced,\" said study senior author Anupam Jena, the HMS Ruth L. Newhouse Associate Professor of Health Care Policy in the Blavatnik Institute and an internal medicine physician at Massachusetts General Hospital. \"A normal behaviour may appear anomalous relative to the child's peer group.\"\nUsing the records of a large insurance database, the investigators compared the difference in ADHD diagnosis by birth month\u2014August versus September\u2014among more than 407,000 elementary school children born between 2007 and 2009, and who were followed until the end of 2015.\nIn states that use Sept. 1 as a cut-off date for school enrolment, children born in August had a 30 percent greater chance of an ADHD diagnosis than children born in September, the analysis showed. No such differences were observed between children born in August and September in states with cut-off dates other than Sept. 1 for school enrolment.\nFor example, 85 out of 10,000 students born in August were either diagnosed with or treated for ADHD, compared with 64 students per 10,000 born in September. When investigators looked at ADHD treatment only, the difference was also large\u201453 of 10,000 students born in August received ADHD medication, compared with 40 of 10,000 for those born in September.\nJena points to a similar phenomenon described in Malcolm Gladwell's book Outliers. Canadian professional hockey players are much more likely to have been born early in the year, according to research cited in Gladwell's book. Canadian youth hockey leagues use Jan. 1 as a cut-off date for age groups. In the formative early years of youth hockey, players born in the first few months of the year were older and more mature, and therefore more likely to be tracked into elite leagues, with better coaching, more time on the ice and a more talented cohort of teammates. Over the years this cumulative advantage gives the relatively older players an edge over their younger competitors.\nSimilarly, Jena noted, a 2017 working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research suggests that children born just after the cut-off date for starting school tend to have better long-term educational performance than their relatively younger peers born later in the year.\n\"In all of those scenarios, timing and age appear to be potent influencers of outcome,\" Jena said.\nResearch has shown wide variations in ADHD diagnosis and treatment across different regions in the United States. ADHD diagnosis and treatment rates have also climbed dramatically over the last 20 years. In 2016 alone, more than 5 percent of all children in the United States were taking medication for ADHD, the authors note. All of these factors have fuelled concerns over ADHD over diagnosis and overtreatment.\nThe reasons for the rise in ADHD incidence are complex and multifactorial, Jena said. Arbitrary cut-off dates are likely just one of many variables driving this phenomenon, he added. In recent years, many states have adopted measures that hold schools accountable for identifying ADHD and give educators incentives to refer any child with symptoms suggesting ADHD for medical evaluation.\n\"The diagnosis of this condition is not just related to the symptoms, it's related to the context,\" Jena said. \"The relative age of the kids in class, laws and regulations, and other circumstances all come together.\"\nIt is important to look at all of these factors before making a diagnosis and prescribing treatment, Jena said.\n\"A child's age relative to his or her peers in the same grade should be taken into consideration and the reasons for referral carefully examined.\"\nImage courtesy: Harvard Medical School",

Over the last five years, as One Billion Rising has grown and the local campaigns deepened, it has also brought in economic violence and the violence of poverty, racial violence, gender violence, violence caused by corruption, occupation and aggression, violence caused by environmental disasters, climate change and environmental plunder, violence impacting women in the context of state sponsored wars, militarization, and the worsening internal and international displacement of millions of people, and violence created by capitalist greed, among so many others.\nThe campaign, launched on Valentine\u2019s Day 2012, began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this adds up to more than ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS.\nOn 14 February 2013, people across the world came together to express their outrage, strike, dance, and RISE in defiance of the injustices women suffer, demanding an end at last to violence against women.\nOn 14 February 2014, One Billion Rising for Justice focused on the issue of justice for all survivors of gender violence, and highlighted the impunity that lives at the intersection of poverty, racism, war, the plunder of the environment, capitalism, imperialism, and patriarchy.\nOn 14 February 2015, One Billion Rising\u2019s global coordinators chose the theme of \u201cRevolution\u201d as an escalation of the demand for justice, and to build upon the massive efforts of communities worldwide that also looked at the roots and causes of violence as part of their call for justice. On (or around) 14 February 2015, millions of activists in over 200 countries gathered to Rise for REVOLUTION, to change the paradigm, demand accountability, justice and systematic CHANGE.\nWe are rising to show we are determined to create a new kind of consciousness \u2013 one where violence will be resisted until it is unthinkable.\nIn 2016, the theme of Revolution continued with a call to focus on marginalised women and to bring national and international focus to their issues; to bring in new artistic energy; to amplify Revolution as a call for system change to end violence against women and girls*; to call on people to rise for others, and not just for ourselves.\nIn 2017, One Billion Rising Revolution was giving sharper focus and visibility to the exploitation of women, and to harnessing even stronger global solidarity to demand an end to violence in all forms.\nIn 2018, We again stood up to the exploitation of, not only women and children, but our planet as well. Rising in solidarity to demand an end to violence in all it's forms, to bring balance back to humanity and our planet.\nONE BILLION RISING REVOLUTION IS\nAn energy\na worldwide decision to end violence against women\na demand for justice\na gathering of the ready\nhoused everywhere\nhoused in our hearts\nJOIN THE RISING, SIGN UP OFFICIALLY HERE:\nhttps://www.onebillionrising.org/events/one-billion-rising-whanganui-3/",

        "raw_content": "Cosmology and God \u2013 the latest news\nAstronomy, cosmology and especially the origin and \u201cfine-tuning\u201d of the universe have long been of interest to me. So I was interested to hear a recent radio discussion between cosmologists Sean Carroll and Luke Barnes, where they discussed the start of the universe, fine-tuning and God.\nFine-tuning basics\nFor those who may be unfamiliar, cosmologists have found that the character of our universe is governed by about a dozen important numbers that define physical laws such as the size and charge on elementary particles, the strength of fundamental physical forces, and the overall density of the universe. And of all the possible values it appears these numbers could take on, only an extremely small range would allow a complex, long-lived universe that could support intelligent life.\nThis much is pretty much agreed on by cosmologists, but there is much dispute over whether there is a scientific explanation for all this, or whether it is evidence of design, and, by implication, for God.\nSean Carroll is an atheist who has taken an interest in the philosophical issues that arise from scientific fine-tuning, and has developed his philosophical thinking more than most \u2013 for example, he has debated with christian philosopher William Lane Craig. But Carroll seems to be a little \u201cleft field\u201d among cosmologists, questioning the reality of scientific fine-tuning more than most, and holding to some scientific viewpoints that are unusual (e.g. he is more sceptical than most about cosmic inflation). He has written The Big Picture on the \u201corigins of life, meaning, and the universe itself\u201d.\nLuke is a cosmologist beginning to make his name. He has written a paper on fine-tuning, and co-authored A Fortunate Universe: Life in a Finely Tuned Cosmos with his colleague Geraint Lewis (who is an atheist). I have followed Luke\u2019s blog for some time. I knew, as he confirms here, that he was raised as a christian, but all his discussion of fine-tuning has been very neutral about God \u2013 either he was agnostic or very guarded about his beliefs. But in this radio interview, he identifies as a christian theist.\nWorth listening to\nI don\u2019t listen to many podcasts or watch many videos, they can take up so much time. But this hour and a half was well spent, though I would have liked the presenter to be a little more succinct. Several things struck me.\nIt was so good to hear an atheist and a christian treat each other with respect and apparent friendship. I presume this comes easier for them because their cosmology gives them so much in common, and so much in each other to respect. But they both seem like genuinely warm and pleasant people, and seemed to respect the religious and philosophical views of each other even while they disagreed. If only others \u2026.\nBrute fact?\nOne of Sean\u2019s main arguments against any theistic interpretation of the universe was to simply say that whatever explanation we adopt, something will have to be simply a brute (i.e. unexplainable) fact, so why not simply say that the universe is that brute fact. Why does it need an explanation.\nLuke\u2019s response was to say that humans like to answer questions, and if we finally knew everything there was to know about Physics, we wrote the equations up on a blackboards, and said science had solved everything, we can (and probably should) still ask why is that blackboard full of equations so? And if there is an explanation, it must be something beyond science.\nI am obviously biased, but I thought Luke\u2019s point was telling. If we want to solve all of Physics, why wouldn\u2019t we want to go beyond that and solve other questions too?\nA beginning to the universe?\nBoth cosmologists accept that science has not yet established whether there was a beginning to the universe or not. Luke says that if there was a beginning, he would feel more comfortable with theism as an explanation than with naturalism, which has no explanation and has to accept this momentous event as another \u201cbrute fact\u201d.\nHowever Sean said he was quite comfortable with the brute fact of the universe starting, and he says theism has its own brute facts, for example, the existence of God. He says \u201ccause\u201d is not a scientific concept and he is also critical of statements that infer there was nothingness and then after some time a universe \u201cpopped into existence\u201d. Both he and Luke agreed this terminology is unfortunate, but Luke still feels that if a universe began, it is sensible and important to ask why?\nMaking a prediction\nScience is based on forming a hypothesis and then testing against the data. For Sean, if naturalism is true, we\u2019d expect the sort of random, sometimes chaotic universe we see. But if theism was true and humans are important to God, he\u2019d expect the universe to be smaller (why make it so large?) and not as finely tuned (why would God need to set up the laws so that there are so many other theoretical possibilities?). Besides, he says, the universe seems to be working in a predictable manner with no signs of God interfering. So he sees the size and fine-tuning of the universe as pointing to a physical mechanism as the best explanation.\nLuke\u2019s response was to say that if naturalism is true, we can say nothing more than that we can\u2019t know about the explanation, the universe is this way randomly. But the scientific facts of fine-tuning are totally unexpected on naturalism, but quite explicable on theism. And he thought the universe might be predictable because God wants it that way so humans have a stable external environment, and its size leads people to think of God, which presumably God would be pleased with. So at least, he thinks, theism provides some extra useful information and explanation that naturalism doesn\u2019t.\nIs the science of fine-tuning clear?\nLuke has assembled in his paper and book a lot of evidence for fine-tuning, and has the support of many, probably most, of the big names in cosmology. But Sean expressed a number of doubts about the science. He isn\u2019t sure the parameters are really finely tuned, and he thinks recent work has shown that some apparent fine-tuning has a natural explanation. He suggested we can\u2019t know for sure what effect varying the various parameters would have, but Luke was firm that theoretical physics can tell us that.\nSean believes the multiverse (the idea that there are zillions of universes, each with different properties, and of course life only arose in the rare universe that allows it) is a more likely explanation than something non-scientific, but Luke pointed out that the multiverse still doesn\u2019t answer the question of how is it that the multiverse creates zillions of universes all with different laws and parameters? Sean countered by saying the science predicts that different regions of space will have different laws.\nGod as an explanation?\nSean thinks God doesn\u2019t provide any sort of explanation. He points out that God is not an explanation that anyone doing cosmology uses in their scientific work. He also argues that if fine-tuning establishes anything, it isn\u2019t that it is fine-tuned for life, but for complex chemical reactions, and theists generally believe that life is more than that. I didn\u2019t see the point in this argument, and Luke simply said the complex chemistry is necessary for life. Luke said that he felt none of Sean\u2019s objections amounted to much compared to the problems that fine-tuning raises for naturalism.\nIt is difficult for a layperson to make judgments here, because expert cosmologists know so much more than we do. As a layperson, I am looking for scientific facts that the experts have explained so I can understand, and then practical explanations and conclusions based on those facts.\nOn that basis, I still feel the origin of the universe and fine-tuning are difficult for naturalism to explain. I find Sean\u2019s common response of saying he doesn\u2019t think we can demand an explanation, that he is OK with brute facts, and we need to be humble and not claim too much, somehow lacking or unconvincing. In science, it is wrong to draw a conclusion until one has sufficient data and demonstrable evidence, but in life, in philosophy, and even in applying science into the practical world (as I used to do as an environmental manager) we are often required to do just that within a given timeframe.\nBut of course Sean may be right that the common ideas of cause and beginnings are not applicable, and it is only my lack of understanding of complex physics that leads me to think so crudely as to think as I do about cause and beginning, and to conclude that the universe points to God.\nBut there is little I can do about this. I feel it is crucially important to answer the \u201cGod\u201d question if I can. So if Luke contests some of Sean\u2019s science, and sees no barrier to believing God is a better explanation of cause and tuning than naturalism is, I have to conclude that the science and my limited understanding are not barriers, and I can only go with what seems to me to be most consistent.\nClarifying both the science and the philosophy is one of the benefits of a discussion like this, and if you are interested in cosmology, you may find it similarly helful.\nPhotos from Premier Christian Radio\nBook review: A Fortunate Universe\nFiled Under: clues Tagged With: Atheism, Belief, Cosmology, God, People, Philosophy, Reason, Science\n\u00ab Who believes in evolution, and who doesn\u2019t?\n\u201cI don\u2019t set much store by signs and wonders, but \u2026.\u201d \u00bb\nTheists are often accused of putting a stop to scientific enquiry by saying \u2018God did it\u2019. That\u2019s not true, because Christians believe science is a way of exploring \u2018how God did it\u2019.\nBut Sean Carroll seems to put a far bigger road block on science by saying he isn\u2019t actually bothered by the existence of brute facts. Really? The naturalist isn\u2019t bothered by thinking there are things we can never ever explain?!\nHi Tim, yes I agree that saying \u201cGod did it\u201d is not closing off the question. It is important knowing who or what caused something as well as how it was done, so \u201cGod did it\u201d answers the first and science answers the second.\nBut Sean\u2019s point is that there must ALWAYS be some brute fact(s) \u2013 in his view it may be the universe, for a christian it is God. My response would be that at least theism gets one step further back, but of course he would say it is a false step.",

During high summer he released \"Weathered\", which got him some more love, but this time not just from the high profile outlets but the general public.\nShows were selling out quickly, he was playing bigger stages and some major festivals too, with Ellie Goulding covering his tune \"Weathered\" during October he suddenly gained a whole new fanbase with her cover getting well over a million plays! But Jack himself you just need to think of James Blake's soothing vocals with some breakbeats from Ghostpoet and a soothing acoustic guitar, and you're there, bliss!\nJack Garratt's debut album \"Phase\" is due for release by Island Records on 19th February 2016, and when they album was announced it was revealed that he will be taking on his own headline show at the O2 Academy Brixton on 15th April 2016. If you want to listen to something now that'll be on his debut EP check out 'Breathe Life'. It's most definitely yet another hit track from the man himself, containing catchy electronic beats mixed with memorable lyrics and unique musical experimentation for the duration of the song.\nJack has had a great 2015 and the next 12 months will push him furthur into the publics conciousness. Be sure to keep an eye on him, he's one for the future, that's for sure!\nLive / [TICKETS]\nJack Garratt News Sounds of 2016",

        "raw_content": "By Micah Smith Wednesday, November 16, 2016 6 a.m. CST\nEven if you aren't yet familiar with found-object artist Lesley F. Collins, your kids might be.\nSince summer 2015, she has been a museum schoolteacher for the Mississippi Museum of Art and helps organize the C3 community art projects. For three years, she also worked as the assistant director of children's services at Stewpot Community Services following many years as a counselor with the organization.\nShe recently left Stewpot to take a full-time position as an artist at The Wolfe Studios. However, a career in studio art wasn't always the path she planned for herself.\n\"I actually wanted to be a journalist,\" she says. \"My father was in journalism his entire life, and I just knew that's what I wanted to do. I went to the University of Missouri, and I was like, 'Yes, this is my life. I can't wait.' I got there, and I hated it.\"\nIn 2004, after a short time at Missouri, Collins moved back to Jackson, where she had lived while her father, Corrice Collins, worked as a producer for WLBT before relocating to Chicago in 1998.\nLeslie decided to attend Jackson State University, but while she knew that journalism wasn't for her, she hadn't figured out what was. Then, one day, her mother, Rebecca Collins, asked if she had considered studying art, and it clicked. She did have one major worry, though. \"I went up to the floor where the art department was, and I said, 'Listen. I can't really draw,'\" she says.\nThe art department accepted her anyway, and over the next few years, she honed her skills as an artist and discovered a passion for working with found objects. Collins says that it was a matter of pragmatism at first\u2014\"Why buy an 18-inch-by-20-inch canvas for $60 when she could find a door to work on for free?\" she asked.\nNow, those found objects add to the narrative of her pieces, she says. For instance, one of her recent series centered on political rights. Among other materials, she used soap in reference to the Jim Crow-era literacy tests that white southerners used to keep African Americans from voting. One test question asked the potential voter how many bubbles were in a bar of soap.\nAlthough her jobs with Stewpot and MMA kept her busy, Collins says they also taught her important lessons that she applies to her artwork, such as the patience to wait until a piece is truly complete.\n\"There's art everywhere,\" she says. \"One of my professors once told me, 'You'll have jobs, and you'll have jobs that help you make the work you want to make.'\"\nTo learn more about her art, email lesleyfcollinsart@gmail.com.\nThe Grit In The Oyster\nMarcy Nessel\nOut of Line: HeARTWorks Bringing Hope to Homeless\nNo Magnolias Admitted\nEDITOR'S NOTE: Simple Ideas for Effecting Change",

        "title": "So what is \u201cAmericana\u201d anyway? \u00ab Jan Seides \u2014 Singer/Songwriter, Austin, TX",
        "raw_content": "So what is \u201cAmericana\u201d anyway?\nFrom Wikipedia: \u201cAmericana is an amalgam of roots music formed by the confluence of the shared and varied traditions that make up the American musical ethos; specifically those sounds that are merged from folk, country, blues, rhythm and blues, rock and roll and other external influences.\u201d\nSays it all, right? Well \u2026 no, actually.\nHow about this from the Americana Music Association?\n\u201cAmericana is contemporary music that incorporates elements of various American roots music styles, including country, roots-rock, folk, bluegrass, R&B and blues, resulting in a distinctive roots-oriented sound that lives in a world apart from the pure forms of the genres upon which it may draw.\u201d\nNot much better.\nThe word \u201cAmericana\u201d already existed in the lexicon, before its introduction into popular music styles. According to The Atlantic,\n\u201cBefore it became a term for a musical genre, \u201cAmericana\u201d was slang for the comforting, middle-class ephemera at your average antique store \u2014 things like needle-pointed pillows, Civil War daguerreotypes, and engraved silverware sets. In the 1990s, radio programmers coined a new, related usage: \u201cAmericana\u201d became a nickname for the weather-beaten, rural-sounding music that bands like Whiskeytown and Uncle Tupelo were making. It was warm, twangy stuff, full of finger-plucked guitars and gnarled voices like tires on a dirt road. If you can imagine an Americana song as a bottle of beer (easy enough), you\u2019ll probably taste a hint of salt from the lead singer\u2019s tears mixed in.\nBut the genre defines itself by its progenitors more than its present. Any Americana artist working today ought to know his Woody Guthrie, his Carter Family, his Willie Nelson, his Blind Willie McTell.\u201d\nWhile this is all true, the assumption here is that there is a limit to what may be termed Americana. Despite the fact that there are many genres that were generated first in America, besides blues, country, rocknroll, and Indie-everything. I\u2019ll grant that European-style art music is not Americana. Likewise, what is now termed World Music is not Americana (though some has been adapted into the Americana music of late.) But let\u2019s consider jazz, a unique American form, or even the Great American Songbook.\nA lot of the songs in the Great American Songbook were born at the same time as those needle-point pillows and engraved silverware sets. If you google the term, you find out \u201cThe Great American Songbook is a term used to denote the canon of the most important and most influential American popular songs of the 20th century \u2013 principally from Broadway theatre, musical theatre, and Hollywood musical film.\u201d It includes songs like Stardust, Over the Rainbow and Smoke Gets in Your Eyes.\nFrankly, I think the major difference between \u201cAmericana\u201d and other popular American music styles is mentioned in the article above. It is based on rural-sounding music.\nThat lets out anything done by Tin Pan Alley. I remember noticing the rural connection when I was living in Greenwich Village in the late 60s, so I was always delighted to find anyone amongst those musicians that loved \u201ccity music\u201d the way I did. Unfortunately, it also lets out anything that doesn\u2019t fit the White Male Southeastern (born in or admiring of) idea of the way things should be. And The Great American Songbook is but one example of what is left out of a supposedly all-encompassing American music, as implied by the name.\nThe other operative idea behind Americana is that it is Male (capital M not an accident).\nI know that there are some female performers who designate themselves as Americana. Lucinda Williams, Terri Hendrix, Susan Gibson and, very likely, Emmylou are on that list. However, they are few and far between. This is not their fault, but I\u2019m beginning to think maybe women should just group themselves in a style that is all their own. Just for awhile. Until the guys catch up.\nThere is a new form stirring in country music, as exemplified by Miranda Lambert, Gretchen Wilson, Kacey Musgrave and Ashley Munroe. More properly, this is Alt. Country, as it has a distinct rock flavor, but it could also be termed country-rock music by uppity women (color doesn\u2019t seem to be an issue, although so far, all the stars of this genre are white. Uppity women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. A generation ago, Tracy Chapman and Joan Armatrading would have been good candidates for this genre).\nAccording to the New York Times\u2019 Jon Caramanica:\n[The music] \u201ccouched tough-talk rural feminism in music that paid deep respect to country music tradition. [They] understood that making changes is easier when you slip in the door unnoticed.\u201d\nAnd the country stage has been far more accepting of these women than the Americana stage. And if you check the showcase listings for the 2014 Americana Conference just passed, the overwhelming majority of performers are Male, with a sprinkling of female acts here and there. None of them were any of the women listed above.\nThis same rural, male segment of the musical scene has been separated out many before in our cultural history. I\u2019m thinking that the problem I\u2019m having here is the name. It\u2019s hard for me to wrap my head around \u201cAmericana\u201d that does not include so much of American music. Do you think it\u2019s too late for them to call it something else?\nFrom (of all places) the Wall Street Journal:\n\u201cAnd it can hurt the Americana movement: If it permits itself to be defined primarily by retro-minded country and twangy folk, Americana runs the risk of appearing as a subset of country. Given that contemporary country album sales are flagging, one can imagine executives on Music Row swooping in and signing some Americana artists in an attempt to rebrand modern country as music of integrity.\u201d\n\u201cHere, at this year\u2019s awards event, there was ample evidence that members of the Americana community are aware that minimizing the natural diversity within American roots music is a sorry way to go. The show opened with a version of Willie Dixon\u2019s \u201cYou Can\u2019t Judge a Book by the Cover,\u201d popularized by Bo Diddley; later in the program, during a tribute to the music of Mississippi, Ms. Wilson sang Dixon\u2019s \u201cI Want to Be Loved.\u201d Flaco Jim\u00e9nez, the Mexican-American accordionist, was presented a Lifetime Achievement award by occasional collaborator Ry Cooder, who performed with the house band. Taj Mahal, who embodies all that Americana can be, revived \u201cStatesboro Blues,\u201d a Blind Willie McTell tune he released in 1968. \u201cNow that\u2019s Americana!\u201d shouted Mr. Lauderdale, the affable master of ceremonies, as Taj Mahal was greeted with a standing ovation.\u201d\nTags: Alt.

If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!\" (Matthew 6:22-23)\nThe whole of life boils down to a sort-of binary, if that makes sense. The simplicity of faith in Christ is maintained through all the hustle and bustle and busyness of life by \"looking unto Jesus\" (Hebrews 12:1). Binary, in the sense that there are all sorts of other places in which to invest our attentions. And yet, all the time, God is looking at us, straining to make eye contact. If thine eye be single...\nSurely you've heard of Strabismus? It's painful just thinking about. Where both eyes are looking in opposite directions. I would say this plays into what Jesus was saying by keeping one eye on Him and the other, elsewhere. \"If thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee...\" (Matthew 5:29) But surely, it's not your eye's fault, is it? Is it.\nThe Urim and Thummim were essentially ancient dice the high priests used to help determine aspects of the will of God (this was prior to receiving the inner witness of the Holy Spirit). While \"Urim\" means \"lights\", \"Thummim\" refers to, not \"dark\", but \"perfections\".\n\"This then is the message which we have heard of Him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.\" (1 John 5-6)\nAnd then David says this:\n\"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me...\" (Psalm 23:4, emphasis mine)\nDid you ever wonder where God is? Out of all the points in space from which to tangentially look out into infinity, did you ever stop and think how God\u2014from wherever He may be sitting right now\u2014has connected with you? Food for thought. Thing is, He does it from within. Through Jesus and then the Holy Spirit. Or, not necessarily in that order? I don't know. I do know that if you have the slightest inkling of desire to connect with your Heavenly Father, He's already there. See, with reference to John and to David, walking in \"darkness\" all depends on the...not quantity, but quality of the light within us. If you have any light, any light* at all diffusing through your being, it's from God. The rods and cones in our retinas are sensitive down to one photon. One little point in the universe. That's pretty awesome. That's the connection. God's looking at you with eyes of love. Don't turn away.\nLight. Dark. God wants to shine through you to reach the world. Know that wherever you find yourself, God is there with you. Ready to fill you with His light and love. And ready to send you out wherever you want to go! Don't kid yourself. It's challenging and rewarding in equal measure (more so the latter, if I may). It takes time but it's so worth it.\nForget to turn off the light(s)\ndark, eye, chiaroscuro, light, ophthalmology, Jesus, God, strabismus, sun\nJan 13 Tips of the Icebergs\nJan 10 Making the Cut (The Middle Distance part 2)",

I love how much life they bring into a space, and how bright and green they are (when they aren't dying). So I keep buying them in hopes that one day I'll actually be good at it. And I am getting good at it...not at caring for them, but I'm getting good at buying plants that actually thrive on neglect.

Especially when compared to more traditional outbound marketing methods that have been used for years.\nIt seems counterintuitive, but the tech sector is one of those industries. And it\u2019s an especially common issue at older, legacy tech companies that have been innovating in production for decades, but haven\u2019t applied the same attitude or tech savvy toward their marketing efforts.\nAlthough these companies are often on the bleeding edge of what\u2019s possible in their chosen technology niche, leadership may be surprisingly behind the curve when it comes to modern marketing strategies. There\u2019s actually a very good reason for this disconnect, though. It\u2019s not just a matter of tech executives burying their heads in the sand\u2026",

        "raw_content": "Global effort prompts huge drop in measles deaths\nWASHINGTON (Reuters) - Measles deaths have plummeted by 74 percent globally this decade thanks to a concerted effort to vaccinate children in Africa and other hard-hit regions, health officials said on Thursday.\nMeasles deaths worldwide fell from an estimated 750,000 in 2000 \u2014 the year before the vaccination effort began \u2014 to 197,000 in 2007, the U.N. World Health Organization and other partners in the effort reported.\nIn Africa, where measles had claimed its biggest toll, deaths fell by an astonishing 89 percent, from an estimated 395,000 in 2000 to 45,000 last year, officials said.\nAbout 90 percent of the worldwide measles deaths claimed children under age 5, officials said.\nMore than 600 million children in more than 60 countries have been vaccinated against measles since 2001 under the program launched by the American Red Cross, the U.S. government\u2019s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the United Nations Foundation, UNICEF and the WHO, officials said.\nThe vaccination efforts, which cost more than $600 million, saved about 3.6 million lives, officials said.\n\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly encouraged by this level of success. We know what countries can achieve. But as deaths decrease, people often tend to move on to other things thinking the problem is solved, which it is not,\u201d United Nations Foundation children\u2019s health official Andrea Gay said in a telephone interview.\nMeasles, a highly infectious viral disease that is easily spread from person to person through coughing and sneezing, has killed untold millions of people since antiquity. It has remained a leading cause of death among young children, primarily in poor nations, despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine since 1963.\nExperts say children should get two doses. In most places, the first is given at about 9 months old and the second at around 18 to 24 months old, Gay said. Most non-immunized children contract measles if exposed to the virus.\nBut while these are considered routine vaccinations for children in wealthy countries, millions were not getting them in sub-Saharan Africa and other poor regions of the world.\nMeasles deaths usually are caused by complications rather than the respiratory disease itself. Pneumonia is the most common cause of death associated with it. Other complications include severe diarrhea, ear infections and encephalitis.\nA global goal set by the WHO is a 90 percent reduction in worldwide measles deaths by 2010 compared to 2000.\nWorldwide, the number of reported measles cases fell from 852,937 in 2000 to 279,006 in 2007 \u2014 a 67 percent decrease.\nThe bulk of measles deaths are no longer in Africa thanks to the vaccination efforts, shifting instead to a region in Asia including India, officials said.\nThey said 8.5 million children in India \u2014 more than in any other country \u2014 were not given their first dose of measles vaccine by their first birthday. Continued\u2026\nScientists doubt Europe can wipe out measles by 2010\nBy Michael Kahn LONDON (Reuters) - Too many children remain unvaccinated against measles for Europe to have any realistic hope of eliminating the disease by 2010, researchers said on Wednesday. In 2006 and 2007, more than 12,000 measles cases were reported in the region, mainly in Romania, Germany, Britain, Switzerland and Italy where fewer children have immunizations\nFull Post: Scientists doubt Europe can wipe out measles by 2010\nBill Gates, others pledge $630 million to beat polio\nBy Will Dunham WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An infusion of more than $630 million spearheaded by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is intended to help finish the job of eradicating the crippling disease polio, officials said on Wednesday.

        "raw_content": "'Midnight in Seoul' tour\nBy Kim Ji-myung\nMost people just don't understand why I am now taking the trouble of attending classes and writing term papers again at my age. But I am enjoying this doctorate course as a luxurious after-retirement experience, although I am not fully retired yet.\nMy happiness as a student after a professional career comes from the fact that my many years of professional experience are a good resource for my research.\nI am curious about the new intellectual horizon of the \"digital humanities\" and am voluntarily groping to grasp the gist of this relatively new field. I am pursuing \"liberal arts and humanities\" in its truest sense, as my efforts are for pure joy, liberated from trade. I mean, it has nothing to do with making a living.\nIn my first semester at school, I found Informatics of Regional Cultural Contents most interesting. If I could rename the course, I would call it Spatial Humanities Utilizing Digital Technology. By applying state-of-the-art technology to all the relevant data, you can revive the geographical situation of a specific time, finding answers to unsolved questions like why Adm. Yi Sun-shin died in war on the day he did.\nWhen I could make a presentation on the topic of my choice, I chose to find an answer to a personal puzzle kept in my mind. I have long wondered about a piece of land which no one but me seems to remember. It is like a \"Midnight in Seoul\" journey, investigating the history of a site several hundred years back into the past.\nDuring the 10 years under mayors Lee Myung-bak and Oh Se-hun, from 2002 to 2011, the shape of Seoul changed drastically both for the good and for the bad. Seoul citizens had not been very sensitive to those changes, but suddenly they realized two things.\nFirst, the \"Design Seoul\" policy of the city government took effect. All the big, lousy shingles and signage of shops and buildings are gone, presenting Seoul with the face of an advanced country. Second, the old quarters in the downtown area have been replaced by giant multi-story office buildings.\nSeoulites over the age of 50 have memories in and around the Mugyo-dong and Myeong-dong area when there were no sub-city centers in the grand Seoul area, including Gangnam.\nGood old schools were all located within the four main gates of the old Seoul city wall. High school and college students knew almost all of their classmates.\nI went to Susong Elementary School, which the Japanese had opened on April 1, 1922. It was one of the best and oldest in town. It was closed down on Feb. 28, 1977. Well, a school with the same name is somewhere in the northern Seoul area, but it is not the same school.\nMy middle and high school, which shared a fence with the American ambassador's residence, was relocated to the Gangnam area south of the Han River. All the sites of my houses in this central Seoul area are gone. Big buildings stand now where several tens of Korean-style hanok were before the 1970s.\nI know the Seoul Museum of History collected and reproduced a part of those disappearing quarters in the museum. But the feeling of space, the smells and the sounds of the places and alleys is gone. No one will ever be able to revive the story in full.\nOne missing puzzle piece in my memory of the elementary school area was locating the big horse stable for the mounted police. No one seemed to remember that there was such facility. Was it a dream or a fantasy?\nI remember vividly that at the stable just behind my school building, some 20 horses were lodged and trained. During the breaks, I could watch from the corridor of my classroom on the fourth floor the shapely bodies of the stallions as they rounded the track.\nTo find clues for this question, I started to examine the old maps of Seoul, from the one drawn immediately after the newly launched Joseon Kingdom moved its capital from Gaeseong to Hanyang (current Seoul) in 1394 to the latest map.\nIn the process of a new kingdom building, Jeong Do-jeon played a key role. He is known as the mastermind of making General Yi Seong-gye of Goryeo Kingdom the king of Joseon. Jeong named the many halls, pavilions and gates of Gyeongbokgung.\nAs the most powerful man, he got the big piece of land just outside the palace across from the Gwanghwamun. His lot was so large that the central area public school Junghak and public horse barn were part of it. The stable for mounted police behind my school was the very site of Cheong's house.\nWell, the Jeong Do-jeon story did not have a happy ending because he supported the wrong prince against the king's choice.\nMy research of \"spatial humanities\" revealed that the initial fate of the location \u2015 being related to horses \u2015 lasts until today. On the site stands the landmark building \"Ima,\" meaning \"benefiting the horse.\" It is one of the first-generation premier office buildings, boasting expensive rental rates. The Irish Embassy to Korea and Office of Canadian Tourism Commission are housed in this building.\nIf buildings, streets and things change names and shapes overnight like they do in Korea now, I am afraid that there will be no pleasure of taking a journey back to the past in the future.\nThe writer is chairperson of the Korean Heritage Education Institute.

In April 2014, wages in real terms were up significantly, by 4.2 percent year-on-year. This result is also contributable to certain Government measures, such as the cutting of utility prices, public sector wage hike, the Job Protection Action Plan as well as measures aimed at stimulating labour market activity.\nThe Visegr\u00e1d Four observe the Russian-Ukrainian situation with concern\nMinistry of Finance, June 18, 2014 10:46 AM\nThe impasse between Russia and Ukraine is a crucial issue for the Visegr\u00e1d Four (V4), as both countries are the bloc\u2019s key economic partners, Minister for National Economy Mih\u00e1ly Varga said at a press conference held following the meeting of V4 economy ministers in Budapest.\nAward for Successful Enterprises presented for the month of May\nMinister for National Economy Mih\u00e1ly Varga presented the \u201cInvestor of the Month\u201d award to LEGO Manufacturing Ltd; while K\u00fcrt Plc was awarded the \u201cSME of the Month\u201d title, and in the category of \u201cStartup of the Month\u201d the Minister handed the award to QuantisLabs Ltd at a ceremony held in the building of the Ministry for National Economy in Budapest.\nFranklin Templeton Executive Vice President\u2019s view of Hungary\u2019s economy\nIn a video shared on Youtube, Michael Hasenstab, the Executive Vice President of investment fund Franklin Templeton\u2019s International Bond Department made upbeat comments on the Hungarian economy. Templeton is the largest foreign holder of Hungarian state bonds.\nSteady industrial output growth in Hungary\nIn the month of April, almost every manufacturing sector performed better and in the initial four months of 2014 industrial sector output was higher in each and every Hungarian region. Accordingly, industrial growth was sound from a geographical and structural aspect. In light of detailed data from April 2014, industrial output was up by 10.1 percent year-on-year.\nEconomy Minister Varga: we are building a strong and competitive economy\nThe Ministry for National Economy (NGM) is aiming to build a strong and competitive economy which brings success and opportunities for everyone, Mih\u00e1ly Varga said at a press conference where he introduced his Ministers of State.\nTourist traffic soared by more than 20 percent year-on-year in Hungary\nIn April 2014, double-digit growth was recorded concerning the number of guests and tourism nights as well as revenues at accommodation establishments. Domestic tourism also increased dynamically: the number of tourism nights by domestic guests soared by 21.9 percent, while respective revenues jumped by 25.6 percent compared to April 2013. In the opinion of the Ministry for National Economy, the upward domestic tourism trend, which has been in place for several years now and which has continued this year, has bolstered and reinforced the tourism sector and it has also mitigated the still very pronounced seasonal fluctuation.\nKazakhstan is Hungary\u2019s strategic partner in Central Asia\nMinistry of Finance, June 5, 2014 4:24 PM\nLast year, Kazakhstan was the third largest trading partner of Hungary within the Commonwealth of Independent States, with a total trade volume exceeding USD 261 million and up by 6.5 percent compared to last year. Within the above amount, the value of Hungarian exports was USD 210 million, signalling an increase of 34.3 percent year-on-year, Minister for National Economy Mih\u00e1ly Varga said at the press conference following the fourth session of the Inter-Governmental Committee (IGC) on Hungarian-Kazakh Economic Cooperation.\nHungary\u2019s GDP up by 3.5 percent in Q1 2014\nIn Q1 2014, Hungary\u2019s GDP increased by 3.5 percent year-on-year. Quarter-on-quarter, the economy expanded by 1.1 percent. In international comparison, Hungary\u2019s quarter-on-quarter growth was \u2013 along with Poland\u2019s \u2013 the highest within the European Union.

        "raw_content": "You Can't Buy the Remastered Call of Duty Without Infinite Warfare\nThe new Call of Duty, Infinite Warfare, has a particularly attractive bundled add-on in the form of a remastered version of the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Frustratingly, there's no way of getting the remastered release without buying the pricey new game.\nReleased back in 2007, Modern Warfare was a huge step for the already excellent shooter series. It took it out of the Second World War and into modern times, while also giving Infinity Ward the freedom to create more original stories. While parts of the Modern Warfare series have certainly improved since 2007, the original was a high watermark. A remastered release that refills the game's multiplayer servers and ups the fidelity of the excellent campaign is very welcome.\nAccording to an FAQ on Activision's support site:\nThose legacy edition's aren't cheap. At GAME, the Legacy Edition and Legacy Pro cost \u00a380 and \u00a3110, respectively.\nMaybe after release Activision will start selling the game separately, but for now this looks like the only way to get hold of the newly textured and lit classic shooter.\nWhat's intriguing about Activision's choice is that by tying the two games together, while giving a way to buy Infinite Warfare on its own, is that the publisher is clearly using the remastered Modern Warfare to buoy sales of the new game, which could suggest that it is not too confident in the selling power of Infinite Warfare on its own.",

At the same time, I recognize this is a very challenging task, which cannot be accomplished overnight. However, with a thoughtful eye on what is doable, we are hoping to make a measureable impact on ways to assess and treat patients within five years.\nWe have started a major study at LIBR, the Tulsa 1000, or T-1000. The goal for this study is to determine whether neuroscience-based measures can be used to predict outcomes in patients with mental illness. In particular, we are trying to determine what factors best predict who will respond well to a particular treatment. The study is a definitive step towards developing a science-based personalized medicine approach in mental health. Unfortunately, mental health treatment providers are still using guesswork and intuition in matching treatments to patients. As a consequence mental health treatment is fundamentally a trial and error endeavor, which can result in prolonged suffering if treatments do not work. The hope is that we will be able to use scientific approaches to more precisely match patients to treatments.\"\nDr. Paulus Joins JAMA Psychiatry Editorial Board\nCongratulations to Dr. Martin Paulus for being appointed to the Editorial Board of the top-ranked psychiatry journal, JAMA Psychiatry.\nLIBR Awarded $11.3 Million Grant\nLIBR has been awarded an $11.3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to help researchers predict and treat mood and anxiety disorders.\nKnown as a Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence (CoBRE) award, it is the largest grant awarded to the institute to date.\n\u201cThis funding makes possible the collaborative advancement of mental health research for the benefit of all Oklahomans while also laying the groundwork for pivotal future funding in mental health science.\u201d - Dr. Martin Paulus, Scientific Director and President\nJustin Feinstein, Ph.D.\n\ufeffAssistant Professor\nResearch Program Highlights\nCan an intervention that enhances present moment awareness for internal bodily sensations help patients with anxiety establish a healthier balance between their body and brain?\nDevelop floatation as an intervention approach for different mental illnesses including anxiety, addiction, and anorexia.\nUses floatation to help patients disconnect from the outside world and reconnect to signals coming from the inside of their body. Waterproof and wireless physiological equipment will measure blood pressure, heart rate, respiration, movement, and EEG. Functional neuroimaging will be used to determine where these changes take place inside the brain.\nDr. Feinstein joined the faculty of the Laureate Institute for Brain Research and the University of Tulsa in December of 2013, after completing his Ph.D. in Clinical Neuropsychology at the University of Iowa, and his postdoctoral fellowship at the California Institute of Technology. He earned his undergraduate degree in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of California, San Diego, and completed his clinical internship at the San Diego VA hospital with a focus on the treatment of veterans with PTSD using Prolonged Exposure therapy. In May of 2015, construction of LIBR's Float Clinic and Research Center (FCRC) was completed. The FCRC\u2019s mission is to investigate the effects of Floatation-REST (Reduced Environmental Stimulation Therapy) on both the body and brain, as well as explore its potential as a therapeutic treatment for promoting mental health and healing in patients who suffer from anxiety.\nWhat's New & Noteworthy\nCannabis Conference: What We Have Learned Through Scientific Research\nLIBR and The William K.

        "raw_content": "Thottappayil Suresan & Others v/s A.P. Gopalakrishnan & Others\nRSA. No. 690 of 2005 in I.A. No. 2145 of 2003 in AS. No. 282 of 2003 & in OS. No. 356 of 2002\nFor the Petitioners: S.V. Balakrishna Iyer, K. Jayakumar, Sr. Advocates, P.B. Krishnan, Advocate. For the Respondents: R8, P. Vijayakumar, K.M. Kurian, R1 To R6, Prabha.R. Menon, M. Krishnakumar, Advocates.\n1. Aggrieved by the decree and judgment in O.S.No.356/2002 of the Addl.Sub Court, Kozhikode, the appeal in A.S.No.282/2003 was filed before the District Court, Kozhikode by the appellants, who are not party to the original suit, along with an application in I.A.No.2145/2003 for permitting them to prefer the said appeal as 'aggrieved persons'. The First Appellate Court dismissed the said application and consequently the first appeal was also dismissed which is under challenge in this second appeal filed by appellants 1 to 3, 5 and 6 in the First Appellate Court.\n2. The original suit was filed for partition and a preliminary decree was passed. The appellants were not made as party to the suit though the plaint schedule item No.4 property is exclusively b\nelonging to them. Interalia, it was contended that they are in possession and enjoyment of the property and that the property is not available for partition. They claimed that their father, Sukumara Menoky and his brother, Padmanabha Menoky acquired leasehold right over the plaint schedule item No.4 property on 18/05/1997. Subsequently, they partitioned the property in the year 1997 and the plaint schedule item no.4 was allotted to Sukumara Menoky. He had purchased the Jenm right over the property from the Land Tribunal, and hence, the property is not available and not liable for partition. On the other hand, the respondents/plaintiffs and defendants contested the application asserting that the property was belonging to their predecessor and is liable to be partitioned and the appellants/3rd parties have no locus standi to prefer the appeal.\n3. The learned District Judge dismissed the application as well as the appeal holding that their remedy lies somewhere else and that they can obstruct execution of the decree or to file a separate suit for agitating their grievance and that they are not 'aggrieved persons' to prefer an appeal against the preliminary decree and judgment granting partition.\n4. The main controversy centers around the question whether an appeal is maintainable in the hands of a person who is not a party to the decree suit and whether the right of appeal inheres on any other person other than a party to suit/decree.\n5. A right of suit is always available to an aggrieved person in a civil dispute unless the same is barred by any statute, but a right of appeal sprouts and germinates from an adjudication of right of parties either by a decree conclusively determining the rights of parties with regard to all or any of the matters in controversy in a suit or proceeding and also from an order of determination of any question either interim or final or rejection to take up any civil dispute for determination on any procedural violation or non compliance of a requirement and essentially resting on the dispute between the parties to the lis and the persons litigating under them and none else.\n6. In Smt.Ganga Bai v. Vijay Kumar and others (AIR 1974 SC 1126), Apex Court had considered the basic distinction between a right of appeal and right of suit in the following lines:\n\u201cthere is a basic distinction between the right of suit and the right of appeal. There is an inherent right in every person to bring a suit of a civil nature and unless the suit is barred by statute one may, at one's peril, bring a suit of one's choice. It is answer to a suit, howsoever frivolous the claim, that the law confers no such right to sue. A suit for its maintainability requires no authority of law and it is enough that no statute bars the suit. But the position in regard to appeals is quite the opposite. The right of appeal inheres in no one and therefore an appeal for its maintainability must have the clear authority of law. That explains why the right of appeal is described as a creature of statute.\u201d\n7. In Smt. Jatan Kanwar Golcha v. M/s Golcha Properties (P) Ltd., 1970(3) SCC 573, Apex Court had considered the right of appeal in a company matter and held as follows:\n\u201cIt would be a travesty of justice if a party is driven to file a suit which would involve long and cumbersome procedure when an order has been made directly affecting that party and redress can be had by filing an appeal which is permitted by law. It is well settled that a person who is not a party to the suit may prefer an appeal with the leave of the appellate court and such a leave should be granted if he would be prejudicially affected by the judgment.\u201d\n8. The question was again came up before the Apex Court in Banarsi and others v. Ram Phal (AIR 2003 SC 1989) and the legal position was summarized in paragraph 8 of the said decision thus:\n\u201cSection 96 and 100 of the CPC make provision for an appeal being preferred from every original decree or from every decree passed in appeal respectively; none of the provisions enumerates the person who can file an appeal. However, it is settled by a long catena of decisions that to be entitled to file an appeal the person must be one aggrieved by the decree. Unless a person is prejudicially or adversely affected by the decree he is not entitled to file an appeal.\u201d\n9. Who is an aggrieved person for the purpose of enabling him to prefer an appeal though he is not a party to the lis should be understood apart from the right of a suit, but based on the origination of a 'cause' to prefer an appeal and hence stands for a person who is bound by the decree though he is not a party to the lis. The person who is bound by the decree though he is not a party to the lis alone can bring up an appeal either under Section 96 or under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, apart from the right of parties to the lis. It shall not be a device or a shortcut method in the hands of a person who is not bound by the decree to defeat the adjudication rendered, by entertaining an entirely different claim which was not the subject of the lis. It is also not permissible to bring back the lis to the Trial Court under the guise of addressing a claim which was not the subject of the lis. In order to bring a person in the status of 'an aggrieved person' it must be shown that in spite of the fact that he is not a party to the suit or decree, he would stand bound by the decree like in the case of pendente lite transferee, a person holding estate (subject matter of suit) in common with a party to the suit, a person otherwise bound by the decree with respect to any estate substantially represented in the suit, in a representative suit under Order 1 Rule 8 CPC, property held by and represented through a trustee or a suit relating to the property of perpetual minor, religious congregation etc. The test available to find out 'an aggrieved person' for the purpose of enabling a right of appeal lies on the question whether he is bound by the decree in spite of his non inclusion as a party to the lis.\n10. In the instant case, the appellants are not litigating under any of the persons/parties to the lis. No case of common interest or common estate with any of the parties to the lis was brought up or let in. No case of minority or representation was also taken up or brought up. It is a decree and judgment granting partition of immovable properties among the siblings, who claims devolution of successive interest from a common ancestor. The claim of appellants entirely resting on different proprietary right based on an oral lease. Hence, they are not bound by the decree under challenge. Hence, they cannot usurp the right of appeal and cannot step into the shoes of 'an aggrieved person' with the right of appeal.\nHence the second appeal deserves only dismissal, I do so, but without costs.",

        "raw_content": "Posted: October 15th, 2015 | No Comments |\nEarlier this week, I posted this thought on Facebook: \u201cSuccess comes through setting a standard and then building a system to reach that standard.\u201d It reminded me of the famous proverb, \u201cWhat good is having a broom if it only stays in the closet?\u201d (Okay, I actually don\u2019t think that\u2019s a famous proverb, but it\u2019s certainly becoming one in my household as I have to remind my kids often to clean up their messes).\nOur students are quick to tell us that they are shooting for a 4.0 this term. They can set the theoretical standard. But do they have a system to attain this 4.0? Do they know what it will take (beyond the well-intentioned response \u201chard work\u201d)? Will they sweep up daily, on a regular schedule, to always maintain their standard of excellence, or will they only feel moved to take the broom out when there\u2019s a huge mess, neglecting other areas and only addressing the obvious. Will this become their practical standard \u2013 to do the bare minimum, only when it can no longer be avoided (and when prodded by someone else), and pretend that everything is okay, and that this approach will be enough to get them an A?\nWhat about us as student affairs professionals, educators, and counselors? What are our standards? What systems do we have in place to guide us to success? Do we plan our days with our systematic framework in mind, or do we simply do the best we can (which is our way of saying \u201cwork hard\u201d), with no clear objective. If we haven\u2019t even defined the outcomes we intend to produce, then we shouldn\u2019t be surprised when we feel like we\u2019re going in circles, not really getting anything done. There\u2019s a huge difference between being busy and being successful. We must clearly identify what we want to achieve, then we must invest our efforts strategically to get it done, never losing focus on the bigger picture, even when the nature of the work presents numerous new challenges and tasks along the way.",

        "raw_content": "Science Fair: Dream or Nightmare?\nHannah (Mrs. Kolbert's class 2009-2010) shows her project.\nIs it every parent's nightmare to have a science fair project assigned? I think often it is but it truly doesn't have to be. With careful planning, following directions and helpful resources, creating a science fair project can (and should) be lots of fun and a great learning experience for kids. The most important thing to remember is that it's not a competition. Oh, well, I guess it is a competition. Let me put it this way: it is a STUDENT competition. Parents should do their best to let their kids take ownership of the project as much as possible. That means coming up with a topic that is interesting to the student yet sufficiently challenging. Parents definitely need to be involved, but mostly to make sure their child is following their plan, the directions, and conducting their experiments properly. A fantastic resource is Science Fair Central. I LOVE the 3 step process that walks you through the entire process. Obviously, there may be items on your school's criteria that is not on the site, but certainly you can make the adjustments.\nWhat's your best advice for parents who are helping their kids with a science fair project?\nAs a librarian over the years I've often been asked for advice or help in the Science Fair Arena. The most successful parent night at school (that wasn't paired with some student performance gig) was the annual pto meeting that focused on Science Fair Projects. We would title the workshop \"The Good, the Bad, the Ugly: Helping Your Child with the Science Fair.\" It was a good time to remind parents that it was a STUDENT competition, and then show them some really good ones, really bad ones (anonymously of course), and offer tips. For these events, the students were encouraged to attend with their parents. I pulled and made a special display of library books that could help as well, and we always had \"exemplars\" set up to show parents and students what it should look like. After the parent meeting, I took the \"exemplars\" and the books not checked out that night down to the library for a display. I also did the presentation for any teachers that asked for it with their classes, and this seemed to help everyone understand how to tackle and succeed at their science fair projects. No, you can't eliminate those projects where parents are too involved, but this certainly helped students begin on a more even playing field.\nMy name is Len Jenkins. I will be summarizing my visits to your blog for a class.\nMy best advice would be to challenge the student. It would be so easy to let a student choose a topic, \"flop\" down an experiment, and consider it an accomplishment. The problem with that is the student did not learn anything. If a student feels a sense of accomplishment for doing a mediocre job, there is something wrong. The parent must ensure that the student is learning more about the project, and not simply copying information. Also, if the student is having fun with the project, he/she is more apt to do more research, add more depth, and develop new ideas to make the project as efficient as possible.\nBarrister Global Services Scams\nMandy21 said...\nIt was a very nice post about a science fair.",

        "title": "Modern Concrete Sidewalks - Floating Pads | Life of an Architect",
        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Construction / Modern Concrete Sidewalks \u2013 Floating Pads\nModern Concrete Sidewalks \u2013 Floating Pads\nWhen you pull up in front of a house, did you know that you can determine if the house is modern even before look up? Just a look at the sidewalk. If the sidewalk is in a continuous pour from the street to the front door, someone didn\u2019t get the Bob Borson memo on modern sidewalks.\nDespite the fact that I\u2019ve been designing residential sidewalks for a long time, I\u2019ve don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever poured an uninterrupted concrete sidewalk that led up to the front door of one of my projects. Instead, I like to pour individual floating pads of concrete to help modify the scale of the approach so that you aren\u2019t walking along a concrete landing strip. So that\u2019s what I thought I would talk about today \u2013 how we build concrete sidewalks out of individual pads of concrete.\nThe image above is a landscape plan for one of the houses we currently have under construction. We worked with a landscape architect on the layout and planting, but the sidewalk layout is something that we put together in our office from the beginning. One thing that I don\u2019t have to consider too often as a design parameter is accessibility and snow. I\u2019ve personally navigated pads like this in a wheelchair so I know it\u2019s possible without much effort, and the amount of snow we get here doesn\u2019t make shoveling snow an issue.\nThis formwork for this entire sidewalk came together in about 3 hours (I think there 15 people on site and working on this single sidewalk). All of this was framed up using 2\u00d74 and 2\u00d76 lumber, 3/4\u2033 stakes, and #3 rebar. *Did you know* The rule of thumb I use on rebar is to multiply each number by 1/8\u2033 \u2026 meaning #3 bar is 3 x 1/8\u2033 or 3/8\u2033 thick.\nThis is looking down at the formwork that surrounds where two floating pads come together. We generally go for a 4\u2033 max spacing for the gap but more times than not, it is exactly 3 3/4\u2033 wide. This accounts for each 2x framing member with a 3/4\u2033 stake driven in the middle to hold the formwork in place.\nOne of the things that we do that might be a little bit different, is that we tie all the floating pads together by tying the rebar from each floating together with its neighbor. How do we do that? If you look at the picture above, you can see that a small channel has been dug out underneath the formwork and there is a bent piece of rebar that is fed through that channel.\nHere\u2019s a closer look at the steel that has been bent \u2013 this is not where it will go, I pulled it out of the channel so I could take this picture.\nI sketched up a detail to show you better what I am describing. I didn\u2019t draw this detail up for this particular contractor \u2013 he and I have worked together long enough that he knows how to execute this particular detail. You can see the dashed lines up above that represent the rebar (which is just short for \u201creinforcing bar\u201d). Each floating pad has its own rebar in it \u2013 you can see where I\u2019ve sketched in the bent rebar that goes under the formwork but comes up high enough that it will tie off to the steel in each concrete pad. The other added benefit of this particular method is that it helps ensure that the concrete doesn\u2019t get pushed down to the bottom of the sidewalk, rendering it useless.\nI will go ahead and state the obvious \u2026 the steel rebar that is exposed in the ground will eventually rust and that rust will migrate its way into the concrete. This is not a detail I would use in many parts of the country, and depending upon the environmental elements, the rate at which the rust occurs will vary. As it is, it will take a very long time for this mild steel to rust and become a problem here in Dallas.\nOf course, you don\u2019t have to tie the pads together \u2013 we just do it so that over the next few years as the construction settles, the concrete pads will move in unison.\nWe have a few grade changes in our sidewalk and when that occurs, the edge of the concrete thickens to make up the difference in the grade change. The picture above is what the step looks like in the formwork. If you look closely, you can see how the top 2\u00d76 boards are sitting on top of another 2\u00d76 board that is tapered\nHere is another view of the formwork used to create the step.\nFast forward a few days and the concrete has been poured, and cured enough that they have removed all the formwork. The other thing that has been done is that all the concrete has been acid-washed. We generally do not want to see broom-finished concrete (a process of creating surface texture on the concrete by literally dragging a broom across the surface while the concrete is still setting). We typically like to see acid-washed concrete because of the consistent clean finish you get as a result. I did not see how this surface was etched but most of the time I see the concrete contractors using muriatic acid mix in a 4 parts water to 1 part muriatic acid.\nHere\u2019s a look at the finished concrete pads leading up to the front door.\nThe site has not even been rough graded yet but eventually the surrounding dirt will be set about 2\u2033 below the top of the concrete\nI will admit that I have never drawn this detail in my life, and the first time I ever saw it done this way was probably 10 years ago when I was working on a project with a Dallas Landscape Architect Kelly James \u2013 a great guy who passed away in 2006. Over the years I have kept my eyes open for a better way to detail these floating pads and have yet to see one. If you have any tips of tricks, feel free to share them with me.\nModern Steel Trellis\nDesign Studio: Top 10 Things you should know\n'The FernHouse'\nArchitects performing surgery ... and architecture\nFiled Under: Construction, Design, Modern House, Residential Tagged With: Construction Observation, Construction Process, details, Materials, modern house",

While the headlines have been talking about all of the chances that policyholders have held for winning and losing cash when they enjoy wagering, for example, the latest news hasn\u2019t been as positive for those with the coverage.\nRegulators are now at the top of insurance news in China for ending policies that were little more than gambling opportunities.\nThe China Insurance Regulatory Commission has now ordered these insurance policies to be shut down, as its officials have said that they were little more than wagering services that were masquerading themselves as coverage. Among the more notable of the policies being closed was the \u201cWorld Cup regret\u201d policy, which was being sold by the Ancheng Property & Casualty Insurance company in Chongqing.\nPolicyholders were told that they would be able to receive a handsome payout if they were able to correctly identify the teams that would be eliminated. For a policy that cost 8 yuan (about $1.29) correctly calling the eliminated teams would bring in a payout of 49 yuan ($7.88). That policy, however, is no longer available.\nOther types of insurance news making World Cup products included policies that were aimed at covering extreme fans who may find themselves at risk of special hazards. \u201cDrunk\u201d insurance, which was still being sold at the time of the writing of this article, is for fans who run the risk of drinking too much. They pay 3 yuan ($0.48) and in the case of becoming inebriated during a game, they will receive a payout of 200 yuan ($32.16) if an emergency call is made, and 2,000 yuan (321.56) if they are required to go to the hospital.\nChina insurance, china insurance policy, China Insurance Regulatory Commission, fan insurance, fifa world cup, insurance news, insurance policy, soccer insurance, sports fan insurance, world cup, world cup insurance\nHealth insurance exchange for small businesses is coming\nSupreme Court rules against health insurance provision of Affordable Care Act",

        "raw_content": "VIDEO: Two specialised shelters for Portland\nLocal Government Minister Desmond McKenzie addresses residents of Portland at a town hall meeting held at the Errol Flynn Marina in the parish last week.\nMinister of Local Government and Community Development, Desmond McKenzie says two specialised disaster shelters are to be built in Portland to accommodate residents during times of disaster.\nSpeaking at a town hall meeting at the Errol Flynn Marina in Port Antonio last week, McKenzie said the shelters, to be built in the eastern and western sections of Portland, will be equipped to offer a bit more comfort than the previous ones. These will be replicated in Clarendon and St Thomas.\n\u201cWhen we create these shelters we will be providing some storage space, so that in advance of an event, there will be adequate food supply and water. The work has already started in Clarendon and should be started in Portland in early 2018,\u201d he said.\nPointing out that there are more than 80 shelters in the parish, the Minister noted that they serve well whenever a disaster strikes.\nMcKenzie said that for the specialised shelters to be built, persons must pay their property taxes.\n\u201cThe money has to come from somewhere. One hand can\u2019t clap. It takes a collective response from everyone. Government recognises that in order to provide the services required, they have to be put in a position to deliver,\u201d he said.\nThe Minister argued that shelters are not to be viewed as five-star hotels, but as a place where people go to protect their lives.\n\u201cWe\u2019re asking you to take your medicine, some clothes and some water. We know there are challenges with persons who are physically challenged. Those will be accommodated, but we need people to move to shelters when instructed,\u201d he said.\nMcKenzie said Portlanders can be proud of the effort they have made to pay their property taxes, adding that the funds have been used to provide new facilities.\n\u201cI had the privilege of opening the new female ward at the Portland infirmary, built at a cost of $15 million. I was pleased to see what has been done with your tax dollars. We have put in solar panels and a water-harvesting system,\u201d the Minister pointed out.\nMcKenzie said that a commitment has been made granting some $3 million to purchase quality bedding for the residents, and that in 2018, he will be breaking ground for the building of the male ward.\n#JIS\nVIDEO: Gov't aims to reduce number of shelters during hurricane season\nSpecial focus on community development during Local Government Month\nLocal Government Minister announces $20M to fix road to Bustamante birthplace",

        "raw_content": "By Steven D. Brett, President of Marcum Financial Services LLC; Branch Manager, Raymond James Financial Services, Inc.\nWhether you inherited a large holding, exercised options to buy your company's stock, sold a private business, hold restricted stock, or have benefited from repeated stock splits over the years, having a large position in a single stock carries unique challenges. Even if the stock has done well, you may want more diversification, or have new financial goals that require a shift in strategy.\nWhen a single stock dominates your portfolio, however, selling the stock may be complicated by more than just the associated tax consequences. There also may be legal constraints on your ability to sell, contractual obligations such as lock-up agreements, or practical considerations, such as the possibility that a large sale could overwhelm the market for a thinly traded stock. The choices appropriate for you are complex and will depend on your own situation and tax considerations, but here is a brief overview of some of your options.\nSelling obviously frees up funds that can be used to diversify a portfolio. However, if you have a low cost basis, you may be concerned about capital gains taxes. Or you may want to avoid any perception of market manipulation or insider trading. You might consider selling shares over time, which can help you manage the tax bite in any one year, yet allow you to participate in any future growth.\nYou'll need to consider the tax consequences of any sale. The American Tax Relief Act of 2012 set the maximum tax rate on long-term capital gains at 20% for those in the 39.6% federal income tax bracket; a 15% rate will generally apply for individuals in the 25%, 28%, 33%, or 35% tax brackets, and a 0% rate will generally apply for those in the 10% and 15% brackets. Also, if your adjusted gross income exceeds $200,000 ($250,000 for married couples filing jointly), your net investment income will be subject to an additional 3.8% Medicare contribution tax. In contrast to previous years, these rates are not scheduled to expire at a certain date. That increased certainty should simplify planning.\nIf you hold restricted shares, you might set up a 10b5-1 plan, which spells out a predetermined schedule for selling shares over time. Such written plans specify in advance the dates, prices and amounts of each sale, and comply with SEC Rule 144, which governs the sale of restricted stock and was designed to prevent insider trading. A 10b5-1 plan demonstrates that your selling decisions were made prior to your having any insider knowledge that could influence specific transactions. (However, terminating the plan early or selling too much too quickly could raise questions about the plan's legitimacy.)\nYou might also be able to avoid some of the restrictions on how much and when you can sell by selling shares privately rather than on the public market. However, you would likely have to sell at less than the market value, and would still face capital gains taxes.\nHedge your position\nYou may want to try to protect yourself in the short term against the risk of a substantial drop in price. There are multiple ways to try to manage that risk by using options. However, bear in mind that the use of options is not appropriate for all investors.\nBuying a protective put essentially puts a floor under the value of your shares by giving you the right to sell your shares at a predetermined price. Buying put options that can be exercised at a price below your stock's current market value can help limit potential losses on the underlying equity while allowing you to continue to participate in any potential appreciation. However, you also would lose money on the option itself if the stock's price remains above the put's strike price.\nSelling covered calls with a strike price above the market price can provide additional income from your holdings that could help offset potential losses if the stock's price drops. However, the call limits the extent to which you can benefit from any price appreciation. And if the share price reaches the call's strike price, you would have to be prepared to meet that call.\nA collar involves buying protective puts and selling call options whose premiums offset the cost of buying the puts. However, as with a covered call, the upside appreciation for your holding is then limited to the call's strike price. If that price is reached before the collar's expiration date, you would not only lose the premium you paid for the put, but would also face capital gains on any shares you sold. Be careful about closing one side of the collar while the other side of the trade remains outstanding. For example, if you exercised the put but the shares you sell are later called away prior to the call's expiration date, you could be left with an uncovered call. You could potentially suffer a loss if you had to repurchase the shares at a higher price to fulfill the call.\nMonetize the position\nIf you want immediate liquidity, you might be able to use a prepaid variable forward (PVF) agreement. With a PVF, you contract to sell your shares later at a minimum specified price. You receive most of the payment for those shares--typically 80% to 90% of their value--when the agreement is signed. However, you are not obligated to turn over the shares or pay taxes on the sale until the PVF's maturity date, which might be years in the future. When that date is reached, you must either settle the agreement by making a cash payment, or turn over the appropriate number of shares, which will vary depending on the stock's price at that time. In the meantime, your stock is held as collateral, and you can use the upfront payment to buy other securities that can diversify your portfolio. In addition, a PVF still allows you to benefit to some extent from any price appreciation during that time, though there may be a cap on that amount.\nCaution: PVF agreements are complicated, and the IRS warns that care must be taken when using them. Consult a tax professional before using this strategy.\nBorrow to diversify\nIf you want to keep your stock but need money to build a more diversified portfolio, you could use your stock as collateral to buy other securities on margin. However, trading securities in a margin account involves risks which you should discuss with a financial professional before considering this strategy.\nExchange your shares\nAnother possibility is to trade some of your stock for shares in an exchange fund (a private placement limited partnership that pools your shares with those contributed by other investors who also may have concentrated stock positions). After a set period, generally seven years, each of the exchange fund's shareholders is entitled to a prorated portion of its portfolio. Taxes are postponed until you sell those shares; you pay taxes on the difference between the value of the stock you contributed and the price received for your exchange fund shares. Though it provides no liquidity, an exchange fund may help minimize taxes while providing greater diversification (though diversification alone does not guarantee a profit or ensure against a loss). Be sure to check on the costs involved with an exchange fund as well as what other securities it holds. At least 20% must be in non-publicly traded assets or real estate, and the more overlap between your shares and those already in the fund, the less diversification you achieve.\nDonate shares to a trust\nIf you want income rather than growth from your stock, you might transfer shares to a trust. If you have highly appreciated stock, consider donating it to a charitable remainder trust (CRT). You receive a tax deduction when you make the contribution. Typically, the trust can sell the stock without paying capital gains taxes, and reinvest the proceeds to provide an income stream for you as the donor. When the trust is terminated, the charity retains the remaining assets. You can set a payout rate that meets both your financial objectives and your philanthropic goals; however, the donation is irrevocable.\nAnother option is a charitable lead trust (CLT), which in many ways is a mirror image of a CRT. With a typical CLT, the charity receives the income stream for a specified time; the rest goes to your beneficiaries. You receive no tax deduction for transferring assets unless you name yourself the trust's owner, in which case you will pay taxes on the annual income. Other philanthropic options include donating directly to a charity or private foundation and taking a tax deduction.\nManaging a concentrated stock position is a complex task that may involve investment, tax, and legal issues. Consult professionals who can help you navigate the maze.\nThis material was prepared by Raymond James for use by Steven D.

France borders the country on three sides while the other side borders the Mediterranean Sea.\nMonaco has an area of 2.020 km2 (0.780 sq mi), making it the second-smallest country in the world after the Vatican. Its population was about 38,400 based on the last census of 2016.[6] With 19,009 inhabitants per km\u00b2, it is the most densely-populated sovereign state in the world. Monaco has a land border of 5.47 km (3.40 mi),[6] a coastline of 3.83 km (2.38 mi), and a width that varies between 1,700 and 349 m (1,859 and 382 yd). The highest point in the country is a narrow pathway named Chemin des R\u00e9voires on the slopes of Mont Agel, in the Les R\u00e9voires Ward, which is 161 metres (528 feet) above sea level. Monaco's most populous Quartier is Monte Carlo and the most populous Ward is Larvotto/Bas Moulins. Through land reclamation, Monaco's land mass has expanded by 20 percent; in 2005, it had an area of only 1.974 km2 (0.762 sq mi). Monaco is known as a playground for the rich and famous, due to its tax laws. In 2014, it was noted that about 30% of the population was made up of millionaires.[10]\nMonaco is a principality governed under a form of constitutional monarchy, with Prince Albert II as head of state. Although Prince Albert II is a constitutional monarch, he wields immense political power. The House of Grimaldi has ruled Monaco, with brief interruptions, since 1297.[11] The official language is French, but Mon\u00e9gasque, Italian, and English are widely spoken and understood.[b] The state's sovereignty was officially recognized by the Franco-Monegasque Treaty of 1861, with Monaco becoming a full United Nations voting member in 1993. Despite Monaco's independence and separate foreign policy, its defense is the responsibility of France. However, Monaco does maintain two small military units.\nEconomic development was spurred in the late 19th century with the opening of the country's first casino, Monte Carlo, and a railway connection to Paris.[12] Since then, Monaco's mild climate, scenery, and gambling facilities have contributed to the principality's status as a tourist destination and recreation centre for the rich. In more recent years, Monaco has become a major banking centre and has sought to diversify its economy into the services sector and small, high-value-added, non-polluting industries. The state has no income tax, low business taxes, and is well known for being a tax haven. It is also the host of the annual street circuit motor race Monaco Grand Prix, one of the original Grands Prix of Formula One. The principality has a club football team; AS Monaco, who have become French champions on multiple occasions.\nMonaco is not formally a part of the European Union (EU), but it participates in certain EU policies, including customs and border controls. Through its relationship with France, Monaco uses the euro as its sole currency (prior to this it used the Mon\u00e9gasque franc). Monaco joined the Council of Europe in 2004. It is a member of the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF).\n1.1 Arrival of the Grimaldi family\n2.1.1 Traditional quarters and modern geographic areas\n5.3.3 Anglicanism\n5.3.4 Greek Orthodoxy\n6.2 Monte Carlo Rally\n7.3 Museums in Monaco\n7.4 Events, festivals and shows\nMain article: History of Monaco\nMonaco's name comes from the nearby 6th-century BC Phocaean Greek colony. Referred to by the Ligurians as Monoikos, from the Greek \"\u03bc\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03b9\u03ba\u03bf\u03c2\", \"single house\", from \"\u03bc\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2\" (monos) \"alone, single\"[13] + \"\u03bf\u1f36\u03ba\u03bf\u03c2\" (oikos) \"house\",[14] which bears the sense of a people either settled in a \"single habitation\" or of \"living apart\" from others. According to an ancient myth, Hercules passed through the Monaco area and turned away the previous gods.[15] As a result, a temple was constructed there, the temple of Hercules Monoikos. Because the only temple of this area was the \"House\" of Hercules, the city was called Monoikos.[16][17] It ended up in the hands of the Holy Roman Empire, which gave it to the Genoese. An ousted branch of a Genoese family, the Grimaldi, contested it for a hundred years before actually gaining control. Though the Republic of Genoa would last until the 19th century, they allowed the Grimaldi family to keep Monaco, and, likewise, both France and Spain left it alone for hundreds of years. France did not annex it until the French Revolution, but after the defeat of Napoleon it was put under the care of the Kingdom of Sardinia. In the 19th century, when Sardinia became a part of Italy, the region came under French influence again but France allowed it to remain independent. Like France, Monaco was overrun by the Axis powers during the Second World War and for a short time was administered by Italy, then the Third Reich, before finally being liberated. Although the occupation lasted for just a short time, it meant the deportation of the Jewish population and execution of several resistance members from Monaco. Since then Monaco has been independent. It has taken some steps towards integration with the European Union.\nArrival of the Grimaldi family[edit]\nStatue of Francesco Grimaldi depicting the moment of the Rock of Monaco conquest.\nFollowing a land grant from Emperor Henry VI in 1191, Monaco was refounded in 1215 as a colony of Genoa.[18][19] Monaco was first ruled by a member of the House of Grimaldi in 1297, when Francesco Grimaldi, known as \"Il Malizia\" (translated from Italian either as \"The Malicious One\" or \"The Cunning One\"), and his men captured the fortress protecting the Rock of Monaco while dressed as Franciscan monks\u2014a monaco in Italian, although this is a coincidence as the area was already known by this name.[20] Francesco, however, was evicted only a few years afterwards by the Genoese forces, and the struggle over \"the Rock\" continued for another century.[21] The Grimaldi family was Genoese and the struggle was something of a family feud. However, the Genoese became engaged in other conflicts, and in the late 1300s Genoa became involved in a conflict with the Crown of Aragon over Corsica.[22] The Crown of Aragon eventually became a part of Spain through marriage (see modern day Aragon) and other parts drifted into various pieces of other kingdoms and nations.[22]\nMonaco in 1494\nIn 1419, the Grimaldi family purchased Monaco from the Crown of Aragon and became the official and undisputed rulers of \"the Rock of Monaco\". In 1612 Honor\u00e9 II began to style himself \"Prince\" of Monaco.[23] In the 1630s, he sought French protection against the Spanish forces and, in 1642, was received at the court of Louis XIII \"Duc et Pair Etranger\".[24] The princes of Monaco thus became vassals of the French kings while at the same time remaining sovereign princes.[25] Though successive princes and their families spent most of their lives in Paris, and intermarried with French and Italian nobilities, the House of Grimaldi is Italian. The principality continued its existence as a protectorate of France until the French Revolution.[26]\nIn 1793, Revolutionary forces captured Monaco and it remained under direct French control until 1814, when the Grimaldi family returned to the throne.[24][27]\nFrench annexation in 1860\nBetween 1793 and 1814 Monaco was occupied by the French (in this period much of Europe had been overrun by the French under command of Napoleon).[24][27] The principality was reestablished in 1814 only to be designated a protectorate of the Kingdom of Sardinia by the Congress of Vienna in 1815.[27] Monaco remained in this position until 1860 when, by the Treaty of Turin, the Sardinian forces pulled out of the principality and the surrounding county of Nice (as well as Savoy) was ceded to France.[28] Monaco became a French protectorate once again. Before this time there was unrest in Menton and Roquebrune, where the townspeople had become weary of heavy taxation by the Grimaldi family. They declared their independence, hoping for annexation by Sardinia. France protested. The unrest continued until Charles III gave up his claim to the two mainland towns (some 95% of the principality at the time) that had been ruled by the Grimaldi family for over 500 years.[29] These were ceded to France in return for 4,100,000 francs.[30] The transfer and Monaco's sovereignty were recognized by the Franco-Monegasque Treaty of 1861. In 1869, the principality stopped collecting income tax from its residents\u2014an indulgence the Grimaldi family could afford to entertain thanks solely to the extraordinary success of the casino.[31] This made Monaco not only a playground for the rich, but a favored place for them to live.[32]\nUntil the Monegasque Revolution of 1910 forced the adoption of the 1911 constitution, the princes of Monaco were absolute rulers.[33] The new constitution, however, barely reduced the autocratic rule of the Grimaldi family and Prince Albert I soon suspended it during the First World War.\nIn July 1918, the Franco-Monegasque Treaty was signed, providing for limited French protection over Monaco. The treaty, endorsed in 1919 by the Treaty of Versailles, established that Monegasque international policy would be aligned with French political, military, and economic interests, and resolved the Monaco Succession Crisis.[34]\nThe marriage of the actress Grace Kelly to Prince Rainier III brought media attention to the principality.\nIn 1943, the Italian Army invaded and occupied Monaco, forming a fascist administration.[35] Shortly thereafter, following the collapse of Mussolini, the German Wehrmacht occupied Monaco and the Nazi deportation of the Jewish population began. Ren\u00e9 Blum, the prominent French Jew who founded the Ballet de l'Opera in Monte Carlo, was arrested in his Paris home and held in the Drancy deportation camp outside the French capital before being transported to the Auschwitz concentration camp, where he was later killed.[36] Blum's colleague Raoul Gunsbourg, the director of the Op\u00e9ra de Monte-Carlo, helped by the French Resistance, escaped arrest and fled to Switzerland.[37] In August 1944, the Germans executed Ren\u00e9 Borghini, Joseph-Henri Lajoux and Esther Poggio, who were Resistance leaders.\nRainier III, who ruled until 2005, succeeded to the throne following the death of his grandfather, Prince Louis II, in 1949. On 19 April 1956, Prince Rainier married the American actress Grace Kelly; the event was widely televised and covered in the popular press, focusing the world's attention on the tiny principality.[38]\nA 1962 amendment to the constitution abolished capital punishment, provided for women's suffrage, and established a Supreme Court of Monaco to guarantee fundamental liberties.\nIn 1963, a crisis developed when Charles de Gaulle blockaded Monaco, angered by its status as a tax haven for wealthy French. The 2014 film Grace of Monaco is loosely based on this crisis.[39]\nIn 1993, the Principality of Monaco became a member of the United Nations, with full voting rights.[28][40]\nView of Monaco in 2016\nIn 2002, a new treaty between France and Monaco specified that, should there be no heirs to carry on the Grimaldi dynasty, the principality would still remain an independent nation rather than revert to France. Monaco's military defence, however, is still the responsibility of France.[41][42]\nOn 31 March 2005, Rainier III, who was too ill to exercise his duties, relinquished them to his only son and heir, Albert.[43] He died six days later, after a reign of 56 years, with his son succeeding him as Albert II, Sovereign Prince of Monaco.\nFollowing a period of official mourning, Prince Albert II formally assumed the princely crown on 12 July 2005,[44] in a celebration that began with a solemn Mass at Saint Nicholas Cathedral, where his father had been buried three months earlier. His accession to the Mon\u00e9gasque throne was a two-step event with a further ceremony, drawing heads of state for an elaborate reception, held on 18 November 2005, at the historic Prince's Palace in Monaco-Ville.[45]\nOn 27 August 2015, Albert II apologized for Monaco's role during World War II in facilitating the deportation of a total of 90 Jews and resistance fighters, of whom only nine survived. \"We committed the irreparable in handing over to the neighbouring authorities women, men and a child who had taken refuge with us to escape the persecutions they had suffered in France,\" Albert said at a ceremony in which a monument to the victims was unveiled at the Monaco cemetery. \"In distress, they came specifically to take shelter with us, thinking they would find neutrality.\"[46]\nIn 2015, Monaco unanimously approved a modest land reclamation expansion intended primarily for some desperately needed housing and a small green/park area.[47] Monaco had previously considered an expansion in 2008, but called it off.[47] The plan is for about six hectares of apartment buildings, parks, shops and offices for about 1 billion euros for the land.[48] The development will be adjacent to the Larvotto district and also will include a small marina.[48][49] There were four main proposals, and the final mix of use will be finalised as the development progresses.[50] The name for the new district is Anse du Portier.[49]\nPanoramic view of Monaco from the T\u00eate de Chien (Dog's Head) high rock promontory.\nMain article: Politics of Monaco\nMonaco has been governed under a constitutional monarchy since 1911, with the Sovereign Prince of Monaco as head of state.[51] The executive branch consists of a Minister of State as the head of government, who presides over a five-member Council of Government.[52] Until 2002, the Minister of State was a French citizen appointed by the prince from among candidates proposed by the French government; since a constitutional amendment in 2002, the Minister of State can be French or Monegasque.[18] However, Prince Albert II appointed, on 3 March 2010, the Frenchman Michel Roger as Minister of State.[53]\nUnder the 1962 constitution, the prince shares his veto power with the unicameral National Council.[54] The 24 members of the National Council are elected for five-year terms; 16 are chosen through a majority electoral system and 8 by proportional representation.[55] All legislation requires the approval of the National Council, which is currently dominated by the conservative Rally and Issues for Monaco (REM) party which holds 20 seats.[55] Union Mon\u00e9gasque holds three seats[55] while Renaissance holds one seat. The principality's city affairs are directed by the Communal Council,[56] which consists of 14 elected members and is presided over by a mayor.[57] Unlike the National Council, councillors are elected for four-year terms,[58] and are strictly non-partisan; however, oppositions inside the council frequently form.[56][59]\nThis section needs to be updated.

At the left are the high-rise buildings of La Rousse/Saint Roman.\nMonaco is the second-smallest country by area in the world; only Vatican City is smaller.[60] Monaco is also the world's second-smallest monarchy,[61] and is the most densely populated country in the world.[62] The state consists of only one municipality (commune), the Municipality of Monaco. There is no geographical distinction between the State and City of Monaco, although responsibilities of the government (state-level) and of the municipality (city-level) are different.[53] According to the constitution of 1911, the principality was subdivided into three municipalities:[63]\nMonaco-Ville, the old city on a rocky promontory extending into the Mediterranean, known as the Rock of Monaco, or simply \"The Rock\";\nMonte Carlo, the principal residential and resort area with the Monte Carlo Casino in the east and northeast;\nLa Condamine, the southwestern section including the port area, Port Hercules.\nThe municipalities were merged into one in 1917, after accusations that the government was acting according to the motto \"divide and conquer,\" and they were accorded the status of Wards or Quartiers thereafter.\nFontvieille was added as a fourth ward, a newly constructed area claimed from the sea in the 1970s;\nMoneghetti became the fifth ward, created from part of La Condamine;\nLarvotto became the sixth ward, created from part of Monte Carlo;\nLa Rousse/Saint Roman (including Le T\u00e9nao) became the seventh ward, also created from part of Monte Carlo.\nSubsequently, three additional wards were created:\nSaint Michel, created from part of Monte Carlo;\nLa Colle, created from part of La Condamine;\nLes R\u00e9voires, also created from part of La Condamine.\nAn additional ward was planned by new land reclamation to be settled beginning in 2014[64] but Prince Albert II announced in his 2009 New Year Speech that he had ended plans due to the current economic climate.[65] However, Prince Albert II in mid-2010 firmly restarted the program.[66][67] In 2015, a new development called Anse du Portier was announced.[49]\nTraditional quarters and modern geographic areas[edit]\nThe four traditional Quartiers of Monaco are Monaco-Ville, La Condamine, Monte Carlo and Fontvieille.[68][69] However, the suburb of Moneghetti, the high-level part of La Condamine, is generally seen today as an effective fifth Quartier of the Monaco, having a very distinct atmosphere and topography when compared with low-level La Condamine.[70]\nThis section needs to be updated.

Monaco has no navy or air force, but on both a per-capita and per-area basis, Monaco has one of the largest police forces (515 police officers for about 36,000 people) and police presences in the world.[77] Its police includes a special unit which operates patrol and surveillance boats.[78]\nThere is also a small military force. This consists of a bodyguard unit for the Prince and the palace in Monaco-Ville called the Compagnie des Carabiniers du Prince (Prince's Company of Carabiniers), which is equipped with weapons such as M16A2 rifles and 9 mm pistols (Glock 17),[79] and which together with the militarized, armed fire and civil defence Corps (Sapeurs-Pompiers) forms Monaco's total public forces.[80] The Compagnie des Carabiniers du Prince was created by Prince Honor\u00e9 IV in 1817 for the protection of the principality and the Princely family. The company numbers exactly 116 officers and men; while the NCOs and soldiers are local, the officers have generally served in the French Army. In addition to their guard duties as described, the Carabiniers patrol the principality's beaches and coastal waters.[81]\nSee also: Land reclamation in Monaco\nSatellite view of Monaco, with the Mon\u00e9gasque-French border shown in yellow\nMonaco is a sovereign city state, with five quartiers and ten wards,[82] located on the French Riviera in Western Europe. It is bordered by France's Alpes-Maritimes d\u00e9partement on three sides, with one side bordering the Mediterranean Sea. Its center is about 16 km (9.9 mi) from Italy and only 13 km (8.1 mi) northeast of Nice, France.[40] It has an area of 2.02 km2 (0.78 sq mi), or 202 hectares (500 acres), and a population of 38,400,[83] making Monaco the second-smallest and the most densely populated country in the world.[40] The country has a land border of only 5.47 km (3.40 mi),[83] a coastline of 3.83 km (2.38 mi), a maritime claim that extends 22.2 kilometres (13.8 mi), and a width that varies between 1,700 and 349 m (5,577 and 1,145 ft).[84][85]\nThe highest point in the country is at the access to the Patio Palace residential building on the Chemin des R\u00e9voires (ward Les R\u00e9voires) from the D6007 (Moyenne Corniche street) at 164.4 metres (539 feet) above sea level.[86] The lowest point in the country is the Mediterranean Sea.[87]\nSaint-Jean is the longest flowing body of water, around 0.19 km (190 metres; 0.12 miles; 620 feet) in length, and Fontvieille is the largest lake, approximately 0.5 ha (5,000.00 m2; 1.24 acres; 53,819.55 sq ft) in area.[88] Monaco's most populated quartier is Monte Carlo, and the most populated ward is Larvotto/Bas Moulins.[73]\nAfter a recent expansion of Port Hercules,[89] Monaco's total area grew to 2.02 km2 (0.78 sq mi) or 202 hectares (500 acres);[73] consequently, new plans have been approved to extend the district of Fontvieille by 0.08 km2 (0.031 sq mi) or 8 hectares (20 acres), with land reclaimed from the Mediterranean Sea. Current land reclamation projects include extending the district of Fontvieille.[90][91][92][89][93] There are two ports in Monaco, Port Hercules and Port Fontvieille.[94] Monaco's only natural resource is fishing;[95] with almost the entire country being an urban area, Monaco lacks any sort of commercial agriculture industry. There is a neighboring French port called Cap d'Ail that is near Monaco.[94]\nPanoramic view of La Condamine and Monte Carlo\nSee also: Monaco villas\nMonaco exhibits a wide range of architecture, but the principality's signature style, particularly in Monte Carlo, is that of the Belle Epoque. It finds its most florid expression in the 1878\u20139 Casino and the Salle Garnier created by Charles Garnier and Jules Dutrou. Decorative elements including turrets, balconies, pinnacles, multi-coloured ceramics and caryatids and borrowed and blended to create a picturesque fantasy of pleasure and luxury, and an alluring expression of how Monaco sought, and still seeks, to portray itself.[96] This capriccio of French, Italian and Spanish elements was incorporated into hacienda villas and apartments. Following major development in the 1970s, Prince Rainier III banned high-rise development in the principality. However, his successor, Prince Albert II, overturned this Sovereign Order.[97] In recent years the accelerating demolition of Monaco's architectural heritage, including its single-family villas, has created dismay.[98] The principality currently has no heritage protection legislation.[99]\nMonaco has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (K\u00f6ppen climate classification: Csa), which is influenced by oceanic climate and humid subtropical climate. As a result, it has warm, dry summers and mild, rainy winters.[100] Cool and rainy interludes can interrupt the dry summer season, the average length of which is also shorter. Summer afternoons are infrequently hot (indeed, temperatures greater than 30 \u00b0C or 86 \u00b0F are rare) as the atmosphere is temperate because of constant sea breezes. On the other hand, the nights are very mild, due to the fairly high temperature of the sea in summer. Generally, temperatures do not drop below 20 \u00b0C (68 \u00b0F) in this season. In the winter, frosts and snowfalls are extremely rare and generally occur once or twice every ten years.[101][102] On February 27, 2018, both Monaco and Monte Carlo experienced snowfall.[103]\nClimate data for Monaco (1981\u20132010 averages, extremes 1966\u2013present)\nSource #1: M\u00e9t\u00e9o France[104]\nSource #2: Monaco website (sun only)[105]\nClimate data for Monaco\nSource: Weather Atlas[106]\nMain article: Economy of Monaco\nFontvieille and its new harbour\nMonaco has the world's second-highest GDP nominal per capita at US$153,177, GDP PPP per capita at $132,571 and GNI per capita at $183,150.[7][107][108] It also has an unemployment rate of 2%,[109] with over 48,000 workers who commute from France and Italy each day.[73] According to the CIA World Factbook, Monaco has the world's lowest poverty rate[110] and the highest number of millionaires and billionaires per capita in the world.[111][112] For the fourth year in a row, Monaco in 2012 had the world's most expensive real estate market, at $58,300 per square metre.[113][114][115]\nOne of Monaco's main sources of income is tourism. Each year many foreigners are attracted to its casino and pleasant climate.[85][116] It has also become a major banking center, holding over \u20ac100 billion worth of funds.[117] Banks in Monaco specialize in providing private banking, asset and wealth management services.[118] The principality has successfully sought to diversify its economic base into services and small, high-value-added, non-polluting industries, such as cosmetics and biothermics.[110]\nThe state retains monopolies in numerous sectors, including tobacco and the postal service. The telephone network (Monaco Telecom) used to be fully owned by the state; it now owns only 45%, while the remaining 55% is owned by both Cable & Wireless Communications (49%) and Compagnie Mon\u00e9gasque de Banque (6%). It is still, however, a monopoly. Living standards are high, roughly comparable to those in prosperous French metropolitan areas.[119]\nMonaco is not a member of the European Union. However, it is very closely linked via a customs union with France and, as such, its currency is the same as that of France, the euro. Before 2002, Monaco minted its own coins, the Monegasque franc. Monaco has acquired the right to mint euro coins with Monegasque designs on its national side.\nGambling industry[edit]\nThe plan for casino gambling was drafted during the reign of Florestan I in 1846. Under Louis-Philippe's petite-bourgeois regime, however, a dignitary such as the Prince of Monaco was not allowed to operate a gambling house.[18] All this changed in the dissolute Second French Empire under Napoleon III. The House of Grimaldi was in dire need of money. The towns of Menton and Roquebrune, which had been the main sources of income for the Grimaldi family for centuries, were now accustomed to a much improved standard of living and lenient taxation thanks to Sardinian intervention and clamored for financial and political concession, even for separation. The Grimaldi family hoped the newly legal industry would help alleviate the difficulties they faced, above all the crushing debt the family had incurred, but Monaco's first casino would not be ready to operate until after Charles III assumed the throne in 1856.\nThe grantee of the princely concession (licence) was unable to attract enough business to sustain the operation and, after relocating the casino several times, sold the concession to French casino magnates Fran\u00e7ois and Louis Blanc for 1.7 million francs. The Blancs had already set up a highly successful casino (in fact the largest in Europe) in Bad-Homburg in the Grand Duchy of Hesse-Homburg, a small German principality comparable to Monaco, and quickly petitioned Charles III to rename a depressed seaside area known as \"Les Spelegures (Den of Thieves)\" to \"Monte Carlo (Mount Charles).\"[120] They then constructed their casino in the newly dubbed \"Monte Carlo\" and cleared out the area's less-than-savory elements to make the neighborhood surrounding the establishment more conducive to tourism.\nThe Blancs opened Le Grand Casino de Monte Carlo in 1858 and the casino benefited from the tourist traffic the newly built French railway system created.[121] Due to the combination of the casino and the railroads, Monaco finally recovered from the previous half-century of economic slump and the principality's success attracted other businesses.[122] In the years following the casino's opening, Monaco founded its Oceanographic Museum and the Monte Carlo Opera House, 46 hotels were built and the number of jewelers operating in Monaco increased by nearly five-fold. In an apparent effort to not overtax citizens, it was decreed that the Mon\u00e9gasque citizens were prohibited from entering the casino unless they were employees.[123] By 1869, the casino was making such a vast sum of money that the principality could afford to end tax collection from the Monegasques\u2014a master stroke that was to attract affluent residents from all over Europe in a policy that still exists today.\nToday, Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 des bains de mer de Monaco, which owns Le Grand Casino, still operates in the original building that the Blancs constructed and has since been joined by several other casinos, including the Le Casino Caf\u00e9 de Paris, the Monte Carlo Sporting Club & Casino and the Sun Casino. The most recent addition in Monte Carlo is the Monte Carlo Bay Casino, which sits on 4 hectares of the Mediterranean Sea and, among other things, offers 145 slot machines, all equipped with \"ticket-in, ticket-out\" (TITO); it is the first Mediterranean casino to use this technology.[124]\nMonaco has high social-insurance taxes, payable by both employers and employees. The employers' contributions are between 28% and 40% (averaging 35%) of gross salary, including benefits, and employees pay a further 10% to 14% (averaging 13%).[125]\nLuxury residential areas in Monaco\nMonaco has never levied income tax on individuals,[90] and foreigners are thus able to use it as a \"tax haven\" from their own country's taxes, because as an independent country, Monaco is not obligated to pay taxes to other countries.[126][127] The absence of a personal income tax in the principality has attracted to it a considerable number of wealthy \"tax refugee\" residents from European countries who derive the majority of their income from activity outside Monaco; celebrities such as Formula One drivers attract most of the attention, but the vast majority of them are lesser-known business people.[112][128] However, due to a bilateral treaty with France, French citizens are still required to pay applicable income and wealth taxes to the French state even if they are resident in Monaco,[129] and the principality also actively discourages the registration of foreign corporations, charging a 33 per cent corporation tax on profits unless it can be shown that at least three-quarters of the turnover has been generated within its borders. Unlike classic tax havens, it does not offer offshore financial services.[90]\nIn 1998 the Centre for Tax Policy and Administration, part of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), issued a first report on the consequences of the financial systems of known tax havens.[130] Monaco did not appear in the list of these territories until 2004, when the OECD became indignant regarding the Monegasque situation and denounced it in a report, as well as Andorra, Liechtenstein, Liberia, and the Marshall Islands, underlining its lack of co-operation regarding financial information disclosure and availability.[131][132] However, Monaco went on to overcome the objections of the OECD and was thus removed from its \"grey list\" of unco-operative jurisdictions. In 2009 it went a step farther and secured a place on its \"white list\", after signing twelve information exchange treaties with other jurisdictions.[90]\nIn 2000, the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) stated: \"The anti-money laundering system in Monaco is comprehensive. However, difficulties have been encountered with Monaco by countries in international investigations on serious crimes that appear to be linked also with tax matters. In addition, the FIU of Monaco (SICCFIN) suffers a great lack of adequate resources. The authorities of Monaco have stated that they will provide additional resources to SICCFIN.\"[133] Also in 2000, a report by the French parliamentarians Arnaud Montebourg and Vincent Peillon stated that Monaco had relaxed policies with respect to money laundering, including within its casino, and that the government of Monaco had been placing political pressure on the judiciary, so that alleged crimes were not being properly investigated.[134] In its Progress Report of 2005, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) identified Monaco, along with 36 other territories, as a tax haven,[135] but in its FATF report of the same year it took a positive view of Monaco's measures against money-laundering.[136][137]\nThe Council of Europe also decided to issue reports naming tax havens. Twenty-two territories, including Monaco, were thus evaluated between 1998 and 2000 on a first round. Monaco was the only territory that refused to perform the second round, between 2001 and 2003, whereas the 21 other territories had planned implementing the third and final round, planned between 2005 and 2007.[138]\nMain articles: Mon\u00e9gasque franc, Mon\u00e9gasque euro coins, and Euro gold and silver commemorative coins (Monaco)\n1978 Mon\u00e9gasque franc coin with an effigy of Rainier III\nOf interest to numismatists, in Monaco the euro was introduced in 2002, having been preceded by the Mon\u00e9gasque franc.[139] In preparation for this date, the minting of the new euro coins started as early as 2001. Like Belgium, Finland, France, the Netherlands, and Spain, Monaco decided to put the minting date on its coins. This is why the first euro coins from Monaco have the year 2001 on them, instead of 2002, like the other countries of the Eurozone that decided to put the year of first circulation (2002) on their coins.[140][141] Three different designs were selected for the Mon\u00e9gasque coins.[142] However, in 2006, the design was changed after the death of ruling Prince Rainier to have the effigy of Prince Albert.[142][143]\nMonaco also mints collectors' coins, with face value ranging from \u20ac5 to \u20ac100.[144] These coins are a legacy of an old national practice of minting silver and gold commemorative coins.[145][146] Unlike normal issues, these coins are not legal tender in all the Eurozone.[147] The same practice concerning commemorative coins is exercised by all eurozone countries.\nMain article: Demographics of Monaco\nMonaco's Population\nMonegasques (21.6%)\nItalians (18.7%)\nBelgians (2.8%)\nAmericans (1.2%)\nMonaco's total population was 38,400 in 2015.[148] Monaco's population is unusual in that the native Mon\u00e9gasques are a minority in their own country: the largest group are French nationals at 28.4%, followed by Mon\u00e9gasque (21.6%), Italian (18.7%), British (7.5%), Belgian (2.8%), German (2.5%), Swiss (2.5%) and U.S. nationals (1.2%).[149]\nCitizens of Monaco, whether born in the country or naturalized, are called Mon\u00e9gasque.[150] Monaco has the world's highest life expectancy at nearly 90 years.[151][152]\nMain article: Languages of Monaco\nThe official language of Monaco is French, while Italian is spoken by the principality's sizeable community from Italy. Thus, French and Italian supplants Monegasque, the vernacular language of the Monegasques, which is not recognized as an official language; English is used by American, British, Anglo-Canadian, and Irish residents.\nThe Grimaldi, princes of Monaco, have Ligurian origin, thus, the traditional national language is Mon\u00e9gasque, a variety of Ligurian, now spoken by only a minority of residents and as a common second language by many native residents.

The patron saint is Saint Devota.\nChristians comprise a total of 82.6% of Monaco's population.[155]\nAccording to Monaco 2012 International Religious Freedom Report, Protestants are the second-largest group after Roman Catholics. There are various Evangelical Protestant communities that gather periodically. The report states that there are two Protestant churches, including the local Anglican church and a Reformed church.\nAnglicanism[edit]\nThere is one Anglican church (St. Paul's Church), located in the Avenue de Grande Bretagne in Monte Carlo. In 2007 this had a formal membership of 135 Anglicans resident in the principality, but was also serving a considerably larger number of Anglicans temporarily in the country, mostly as tourists. The church site also accommodates an English-language library of over 3,000 books.[156] The church is part of the Anglican Diocese in Europe.\nGreek Orthodoxy[edit]\nMonaco's 2012 International Religious Freedom Report states that there is one Greek Orthodox Church in Monaco.\nThe Association Culturelle Isra\u00e9lite de Monaco (founded in 1948) is a converted house containing a synagogue, a community Hebrew school, and a kosher food shop, located in Monte Carlo.[157] The community mainly consists of retirees from Britain (40%) and North Africa. Two-thirds of the Jewish population is Sephardic, mainly from North Africa, while the other third is Ashkenazi.[158]\nThe Muslim population of Monaco consists of about 280 people, most of whom are exclusively residents, not citizens.[159] The majority of the Muslim population of Monaco are Arabs, though there are smaller Turkish minorities as well.[160] Monaco does not have any official mosques.[161] There is a Muslim mosque in nearby Beausoleil, France, within easy walking distance of Monaco.\nMain article: Monaco Grand Prix\nFormation lap for the 1996 Monaco Grand Prix\nSince 1929, the Monaco Grand Prix has been held annually in the streets of Monaco.[162] It is widely considered to be one of the most prestigious automobile races in the world. The erection of the Circuit de Monaco takes six weeks to complete and the removal after the race takes another three weeks.[162] The circuit is incredibly narrow and tight and its tunnel, tight corners and many elevation changes make it perhaps the most demanding Formula One track.[163] Driver Nelson Piquet compared driving the circuit to \"riding a bicycle around your living room\".\nDespite the challenging nature of the course it has only had one fatality, Lorenzo Bandini, who crashed, burned and died three days later from his injuries in 1967.[164] Two other drivers had lucky escapes after they crashed into the harbour, the most famous being Alberto Ascari in the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix and Paul Hawkins, during the 1965 race.[162]\nMonte Carlo Rally[edit]\nSince 1911 part of the Monte Carlo Rally has been held in the principality, originally held at the behest of Prince Albert I. Like the Grand Prix, the rally is organized by Automobile Club de Monaco. It has long been considered to be one of the toughest and most prestigious events in rallying and from 1973 to 2008 was the opening round of the World Rally Championship (WRC).[165] From 2009 until 2011, the rally served as the opening round of the Intercontinental Rally Challenge.[166] The rally returned to the WRC calendar in 2012 and has been held annually since.[167] Due to Monaco's limited size, all but the ending of the rally is held on French territory.\nStade Louis II, home of AS Monaco FC\nMonaco hosts two major football teams in the principality: the men's football club, AS Monaco FC, and the women's football club, OS Monaco. AS Monaco plays at the Stade Louis II and competes in Ligue 1 the first division of French football. The club is historically one of the most successful clubs in the French league, having won Ligue 1 eight times (most recently in 2016\u201317) and competed at the top level for all but six seasons since 1953. The club reached the 2004 UEFA Champions League Final, with a team that included Dado Pr\u0161o, Fernando Morientes, J\u00e9r\u00f4me Rothen, Akis Zikos and Ludovic Giuly, but lost 3\u20130 to Portuguese team FC Porto. Many international stars have played for the club, such as French World Cup-winners Thierry Henry, Fabien Barthez, David Trezeguet, and Kylian Mbappe. The Stade Louis II also played host to the annual UEFA Super Cup (1998\u20132012) between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League.\nThe women's team, OS Monaco, competes in the women's French football league system. The club currently plays in the local regional league, deep down in the league system. It once played in the Division 1 F\u00e9minine, in the 1994\u201395 season, but was quickly relegated. Current France women's national football team goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi had a short stint at the club before going to the INF Clairefontaine academy.\nThe Monaco national football team represents the nation in association football and is controlled by the Mon\u00e9gasque Football Federation, the governing body for football in Monaco. However, Monaco is one of only three sovereign states in Europe (along with the United Kingdom and Vatican City) that is not a member of UEFA and so does not take part in any UEFA European Football Championship or FIFA World Cup competitions. The team plays its home matches in the Stade Louis II.\nMain article: Rugby union in Monaco\nMonaco's national rugby team, as of October 2013, is 91st in the International Rugby Board rankings.[168]\nA view of the 2011 Monaco Porsche Supercup. Motor racing is very popular, with one course encompassing almost the whole country.\nThe Monte-Carlo Masters is held annually in neighbouring Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France, as a professional tournament for men as part of tennis's ATP Masters Series.[169] The tournament has been held since 1897. Golf's Monte Carlo Open was also held at the Monte Carlo Golf Club at Mont Agel in France between 1984 and 1992. Monaco has also competed in the Olympic Games, although, no athlete from Monaco has ever won an Olympic medal.\nThe 2009 Tour de France, the world's premier cycle race, started from Monaco with a 15-kilometre (9 mi) closed-circuit individual time trial starting and finishing there on the first day, and the 182-kilometre (113 mi) second leg starting there on the following day and ending in Brignoles, France.[170]\nMonaco also stage part of the Global Champions Tour (International Show-jumping). Acknowledged as the most glamorous of the series, Monaco will be hosting the world's most celebrated riders, including Monaco's own Charlotte Casiraghi, in a setting facing out over the world's most beautiful yachts, and framed by the Port Hercules and Prince's palace.[171] In 2009, the Monaco stage of the Global Champions tour took place between 25\u201327 June.\nThe Monaco Marathon is the only marathon in the world to pass through three separate countries, those of Monaco, France and Italy, before the finish at the Stade Louis II.\nThe Monaco Ironman 70.3 triathlon race is an annual event with over 1,000 athletes competing and attracts top professional athletes from around the world. The race includes a 1.9-kilometre (1.2-mile) swim, 90-kilometre (56-mile) bike ride and 21.1-kilometre (13.1-mile) run.\nSince 1993, the headquarters of the International Association of Athletics Federations,[172] the world governing body of athletics, is located in Monaco.[173] An IAAF Diamond League meet is annually held at Stade Louis II.[174]\nA municipal sports complex, the Rainier III Nautical Stadium in the Port Hercules district consists of a heated saltwater Olympic-size swimming pool, diving boards and a slide.[175] The pool is converted into an ice rink from December to March.[175]\nFrom 10\u201312 July 2014 Monaco inaugurated the Solar1 Monte Carlo Cup, a series of ocean races exclusively for solar-powered boats.[176],[177]\nPanoramic view of the Monaco City and of the port of Fontvieille\nMain article: Music of Monaco\nSeaside fa\u00e7ade of the Salle Garnier, home of the Op\u00e9ra de Monte-Carlo\nMonaco has an opera house, a symphony orchestra and a classical ballet company.[178]\nMonaco has a national museum of contemporary visual art at the New National Museum of Monaco. The country also has numerous works of public art, statues, museums, and memorials (see list of public art in Monaco).\nMuseums in Monaco[edit]\nMain article: List of museums in Monaco\nOceanographic Museum, Monaco\nNapoleon Museum (Monaco)\nEvents, festivals and shows[edit]\nThe Principality of Monaco hosts major international events such as :\nLyc\u00e9e Albert Premier of Monaco\nMonaco has ten state-operated schools, including: seven nursery and primary schools; one secondary school, Coll\u00e8ge Charles III;[179] one lyc\u00e9e that provides general and technological training, Lyc\u00e9e Albert 1er;[180] and one lyc\u00e9e that provides vocational and hotel training, Lyc\u00e9e technique et h\u00f4telier de Monte-Carlo.[181] There are also two grant-aided denominational private schools, Institution Fran\u00e7ois d'Assise Nicolas Barr\u00e9 and Ecole des S\u0153urs Dominicaines, and one international school, the International School of Monaco,[182][183] founded in 1994.[184]\nThere is one university located in Monaco, namely the International University of Monaco (IUM), an English-language school specializing in business education and operated by the Institut des hautes \u00e9tudes \u00e9conomiques et commerciales (INSEEC) group of schools.\nMonaco's flag and Coat of arms\nMain article: Flag of Monaco\nThe flag of Monaco is one of the world's oldest national flag designs.[185] The flag of Monaco, which Monaco adopted in April 4, 1881, is almost identical to the flag of Indonesia (adopted by Indonesia in August 17, 1945) except for the ratio of height to width.[186]\nMain article: Transport in Monaco\nFurther information: Rail transport in Monaco\nThe Monaco-Monte Carlo station is served by the SNCF, the French national rail system. The Monaco Heliport provides helicopter service to the closest airport, C\u00f4te d'Azur Airport in Nice, France.\nThe Monaco bus company (CAM) covers all the tourist attractions, museums, Exotic garden, business centres, and the Casino or the Louis II Stadium.[187]\nMain article: Foreign relations of Monaco\nLe Rocher in 1890\nMonaco is so old that it has outlived many of the nations and institutions that it has had relations with. The Crown of Aragon and Republic of Genoa became a part of other countries, as did the Kingdom of Sardinia. Honor\u00e9 II, Prince of Monaco secured recognition of his independent sovereignty from Spain in 1633, and then from Louis XIII of France by the Treaty of P\u00e9ronne (1641).\nMonaco made a special agreement with France in 1963 in which French customs laws apply in Monaco and its territorial waters.[129] Monaco uses the euro but is not a member of the European Union.[129] Monaco shares a 6-kilometre (3.7-mile) border with France but also has about 2-kilometre (1.2-mile) of coastline with the Mediterranean sea.[188] Two important agreements that support Monaco's independence from France include the Franco-Mon\u00e9gasque Treaty of 1861 and the French Treaty of 1918 (see also Kingdom of Sardinia). The United States CIA Factbook records 1419 as the year of Monaco's independence.[188]\nFrance-Monaco relations\nMonaco\u2013United States relations\nMonaco\u2013Russia relations\nThere are two embassies in Monaco: those of France and Italy.[189] There are about another 30 or so consulates.[189] By the 21st century Monaco maintained embassies in Belgium (Brussels), France (Paris), Germany (Berlin), the Vatican, Italy (Rome), Spain (Madrid), Switzerland (Bern), United Kingdom (London) and the United States (Washington).[189]\nIn the year 2000 nearly two-thirds of the residents of Monaco were foreigners[190] In 2015 the immigrant population was estimated at 60%[188] However, it is reported to be difficult to gain citizenship in Monaco, or at least in relative number there is not many people who do so.[178] In 2015 an immigration rate of about 4 people per 1,000 was noted, which works out to something like 100\u2013150 people a year.[191] The population of Monaco went from 35,000 in 2008 to 36,000 in 2013, and of that about 20 percent were native Monegasque[192] (see also Nationality law of Monaco).\nA recurring issue Monaco encounters with other countries is the attempt by foreign nationals to use Monaco to avoid paying taxes in their own country.[188] Monaco actually collects a number of taxes including a 20% VAT and 33% on companies unless they make over 75% of their income inside Monaco.[188] Monaco does not allow dual citizenship, but does have multiple paths to citizenship including by declaration and naturalization.[193] In many cases the key issue for obtaining citizenship, rather than attaining residency in Monaco, is the person's ties to their departure country.[193] For example, French citizens must still pay taxes to France even if they live full-time in Monaco unless they resided in the country before 1962 for at least 5 years.[193] In the early 1960s there was some tension between France and Monaco over taxation.[194]\nThere are no border formalities entering or leaving to France. For visitors a souvenir passport stamp is available on request at Monaco's tourist office. This is located on the far side of the gardens that face the Casino.\nEurozone[195]\nEU customs territory[196]\nEU VAT area[197]\nMonaco (relations) Negotiating[198] Yes[d] de facto[e] Partial[f] Yes[g] Yes[h][i] No\nMediterranean portal\nOutline of Monaco\nForeign relations of Monaco\nList of rulers of Monaco\nTelecommunications in Monaco\nMicrostates and the European Union\nList of diplomatic missions in Monaco\nList of diplomatic missions of Monaco\nMonaco\u2013European Union relations\n^ a b In other languages of Monaco:\nItalian: Principato di Monaco\nMon\u00e9gasque: Principatu de M\u00fanegu\nOccitan: Principat de M\u00f3negue\n^ For further information, see languages of Monaco.\n^ Percentage based on a 38,000 person population.\n^ Monetary agreement with the EU to issue euros.\n^ Although not a contracting party to the Schengen Agreement, has an open border with France and Schengen laws are administered as if it were a part of France.[199][200]\n^ Through an agreement with France.[201]\n^ Through an agreement with France.

        "raw_content": "Manowar Taps Brian Blessed For \"Kings Of Metal MMXIV\" Re-Recording\nManowar (which was covered in today's Sunday Old School) has joined forces with British actor, author, and adventurer Brian Blessed for the spoken narration on \"The Warrior\u2019s Prayer\" to appear on the upcoming re-recorded album \"Kings Of Metal MMXIV.\"\n\"The Warrior\u2019s Prayer\" features a spoken narration that depicts a grandfather telling his grandson an epic fantasy story from his childhood. Manowar's Joey DeMaio comments:\n\"Brian is the perfect fit! Not only because he is a gifted screen and theater actor and has a majestic, thunderous voice. But also because he truly embodies the values of Manowar and heavy metal: He has an adventurous spirit and dares to do what he has set his mind on, no matter what. He has climbed the Mount Everest and has taken a trek to the North Pole! What else do I have to say? He may not have known it until he met us, but he is a true brother of metal!\"\nBrian Blessed has left lasting impressions in the cult movie \"Flash Gordon,\" in Kenneth Branagh\u2019s \"Henry V\" and in Kevin Costner\u2019s \"Robin Hood \u2013 Prince Of Thieves,\" among others.\n\"For me, the whole experience was completely miraculous and life changing. What a privilege to be part of such a divine, great team,\" said Brian Blessed after the recordings.\n\"Brian was spectacular! He didn\u2019t just narrate the story. He performed it. He lived it! It was a magnificent spectacle that will bring the story of \u201cThe Warrior\u2019s Prayer\u201d to life in the listener\u2019s mind,\" further commented Joey DeMaio.\nFor the recordings, Manowar returned to Birmingham, England, where 25 years ago the band recorded a 100 voice male choir for \"The Crown And The Ring,\" another track featured on the \"Kings Of Metal\" album and to this day the signature ending of every Manowar show.\nSilent Opera Signs With Massacre Records\nHeretic Cult Redeemer Announces Self-Titled LP\n0 Comments on \"Manowar Taps Brian Blessed For Re-Recording\"",

Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu\nThe Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a rare condemnation of Gaza terrorists on Monday for war crimes - without the usual \"balancing act\" of blaming Israel.\nHRW did not go so far as to describe \"Palestinian armed groups\" as terrorists, but the categorical censure of rocket launchers marks a drastic change in the attitude towards Israel and Hamas.\nThe condemnation also comes at a critical time for Hamas, which claims it \"won\" the missile war by gaining implicit diplomatic recognition to a certain extent.\n\"Palestinian armed groups made clear in their statements that harming civilians was their aim last month,\" wrote HRW's Middle East director Sarah Leah Whitson. \"There is simply no legal justification for launching rockets at populated areas.\"\nBetween November 14 and 21, Gaza terrorists fired approximately 1,500 missiles at Israel, and more than half of them exploded in Israel, including 60 in populated areas. More than 40 people were either killed or wounded, not including two Gaza Arabs who were killed by their own misfired rockets, Human Rights Watch said.\nHuman Rights Watch interviewed witnesses, victims, and relatives of people killed and injured by rocket attacks in Israel, as well as Israeli officials from two communities struck by rockets, and a spokesperson for the Israeli emergency medical services.\nIt \"found that armed groups repeatedly fired rockets from densely populated areas, near homes, businesses, and a hotel, unnecessarily placing civilians in the vicinity at grave risk from Israeli counter-fire.\"\nHRW names the \"armed groups\" as Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the Popular Resistance Committees' terrorist branches.\nThe terrorist organizations publicly stated they targeted Israeli civilians as acts of \"revenge.\"\n\"The laws of war prohibit reprisal attacks against civilians, regardless of unlawful attacks by the other side,\" Human Rights Watch said. \"Statements by armed groups that they deliberately targeted an Israeli city or Israeli civilians are demonstrating their intent to commit war crimes.\"\nIt called on Hamas, which took over authority in Gaza in a bloody terrorist militia war with the rival Fatah group five years ago, \"to uphold the laws of war\" and \"...appropriately punish those responsible for serious violations.\"\nHRW also blamed Iran, based on an Iranian military official's statement Iran provided technical information to Gaza terrorists for building their own medium-range Fajr 5 missiles that were fired on Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Iran denied having supplied the missiles to Gaza.\n\"Supplying weaponry to a party to a conflict knowing that it is likely to be used to commit war crimes constitutes the aiding and abetting of war crimes,\" Human Rights Watch said.\nMagen David Adom told the rights group that their medics treated 38 civilians wounded by missiles, three of them severely.\nA 50-year-old man in Ashkelon lost a foot that was \"traumatically amputated by a rocket blast,\" and a man in Ofakim was severely wounded when a rocket hit the car in which he was riding.\nHuman Rights Watch also blamed Gaza terrorists for firing rockets and missiles from densely populated areas.\nAfter interviewing witnesses in Gaza, it confirmed Israeli military reports that terrorists fired rockets 300 feet from international media offices. \"I saw it [the rocket] go up and heard it, and then smoke was in the office,\" a witness said.\nDuring the Pillar of Defense counterterrorist campaign, the IDF bombed the roof of the media center to knock out Hamas communications systems. Foreign media blamed Israel for attacking the media\n\"One man said he saw a rocket launched from the yard of a house near the Deira Hotel in central Gaza City,\" HRW added.\n\"Under the laws of war, parties to an armed conflict are required to take all feasible precautions to protect civilians under their control from the effects of attacks and not to place military targets in or near densely populated areas. Human Rights Watch has not been able to identify any instances in November in which a Palestinian armed group warned civilians to evacuate an area before a rocket launch.\"\nIt also stated, \"The absence of Israeli military forces in the areas where rockets hit, as well as statements by leaders of Palestinian armed groups that population centers were being targeted, indicate that the armed groups deliberately attacked Israeli civilians and civilian objects.\"\nAlthough the terrorist groups' targetting of civilians was intended to cause major casualties, Israeli casualty figures were low in comparison to the number of missiles launched, due only to the efficacy of the Iron Dome and the construction of shelters throughout the country",

Projects are internally generated or selected from offered opportunities and developed to become profitable mines.\nA steady flow of projects coupled with a high success rate creates a sustainable business model. Our model provides a market for projects and concept ideas for geologists and others who lack the technical and financial muscle to capitalise on their intellectual property. MinEx has turned a number of these \u201cProject Partners\u201d into wealthy individuals.\nThe model also provides opportunities for venture capitalists and investment funds to invest into projects at an early stage thus leveraging off a relatively small investment with huge growth potential. The MinEx track record and technical and managerial expertise provide comfort in investments which would normally be considered high risk. More than one resource company has been established on the back of mining projects generated and developed by MinEx.\nA small but very experienced permanent professional staff means that most non-core tasks are outsourced and that money is spent \u201cin the ground\u201d.\nThe discovery and development of new mining assets creates wealth for the region, work opportunities for communities and revenue for the state.",

        "raw_content": "I have to say that going to the Grand Canyon is the ideal family vacation in terms of cost and things to do. Our main cost for the trip was the airfare. Next came lodgings, but we cut out a lot of cost there by staying in Williams, Arizona and driving to the canyon each day (it was about an hour each way). To get into the park is $25 for seven days. After that you can get by with spending very little depending on the activities you choose.\nJames received a trip to the Grand Canyon as a birthday gift from Michael's folks. I got to go along because I am the awesome mother.\nJames was mostly interested in hiking while we were at the canyon. He didn't want to go on a mule or helicopter ride. He had some interest in the glass bridge, but changed his mind after we saw the distance and the expense associated with it.\nWe only had about a day and a half in the Grand Canyon. The first day we took the train up from Williams. It was a fun ride, but definitely not worth the time or the expense to do it again or recommend it.\nWith limited time the first day we mostly stayed in the village and took in the views and checked out some of the shops and exhibits. We hiked a little along the Trail of Time which was so cool because it had examples of different layers of canyon rock and when they were formed.\nThe second day we drove up and got up there early. This was important because it gets crowded there fast. We still experienced some crowds, but after we got out on the trail it really thinned out.\nThis day we decided to hike along Hermit Road. This path/road follows along the edge of the canyon and is closed to private vehicles. A shuttle bus goes long this route with stops every mile or so. You can of course hike the entire way from the Village to Hermits Rest, but it is almost eight miles one-way.\nSomething we weren't prepared for was how the altitude effects you. At over 7000 feet you get winded and tired easily. We hiked a little over two miles along Hermit Road and both James and my mother-in-law started to feel a little altitude sickness. Thank goodness for the shuttles! We were able to hop on and get back to the village where we sat at an air-conditioned restaurant and refueled with food and water.\nWe were planning to hike another couple miles in the afternoon, but you would be surprised how much a little altitude sickness can wipe you out! So instead we drove the car to the Geology Museum, which is another great free attraction that has amazing views. From there we walked the almost mile to the Visitor Center to view the 20 minute movie about the canyon. Unfortunately, the movie was out of order, so we hopped on a shuttle bus back to the car.\nOne of the things we were hoping to do that we didn't have enough time to do was to hike down into the canyon. They suggest you do not try to hike down to the bottom and back up in a single day. We were thinking about hiking part of the way down on one of the suggested hikes, but there were so many other things to do that we never had the chance.\nEven looking at the same spot in the Grand Canyon can seem different depending on the weather and the time of the day. This is truly an amazing place to visit.\nLabels: James, Travel\nI wish I had some photos for this post, but this week was so crazy I didn't even pick up the camera!\nThe Open House for LMCA was a huge success and we got at least one family registered for the program! Woo-Whoo!\nNext Open House is July 8, 5:30 to 7:30pm. Please help spread the word.\nMichael is leaving on Saturday for eight days. I plan on keeping the kids alive while he is gone.\nIsaac's Feast Day came and went, as did our anniversary. They were both over-shadowed by the Barn Raising and First Holy Communion Party. No one minded though, Isaac celebrated his Feast Day on another day and Michael gave me a rain check of an anniversary/ delayed Mother's Day gift of going to see the new Star Trek movie when he returns. I may even let him come with me!\nSoccer is winding down which is both good and bad. We love to see our boys play soccer. I love how much they enjoy it. I love the friendships they've formed and the ones I've formed with the other soccer moms.\nI will not miss the fact that we can't eat dinner together four nights a week as two of us had to wolf down food at 4:45 pm. Or the craziness that our Sundays have become as we manage church, CCD, and two soccer games.\nPathetic that I couldn't even come up with two more things. Go visit Jen at Conversion Diary to read about more interesting takes.\nIt is no secret that we devour books around here. So when I was offered a free book from Science Naturally! in exchange for a review on this blog, I of course answered, \"Yes! Yes! Yes!\"\nScience Naturally! is a company committed to increasing math and science literacy. All of their products correlate to national math and science standards. Several products have also received coveted awards, recommendations, and been recognized by magazines or parent organizations.\nOne Minute Mysteries: 65 More Short Mysteries You Solve with Science contains 70 brainteaser type activities that require math or science knowledge to solve. Written by a father-daughter team, this engaging and educational book is designed for ages 8 to 12. The stories are very short and do indeed take about a minute to read. The story is printed on the front side of the page and have the answer to the mystery, which is actually more like a brainteaser, on the opposite side.\nThe text is divided into sections each talking about a different theme such as plants or space. It is not necessary to read the book from front to back and kids can bounce around to the area that interests them. Although the book says 'science' there are five bonus math stories to enjoy.\nHOW WE USED THIS PRODUCT\nAs soon as the book arrived it was consumed by James. He enjoyed it so much and it really allowed me to see areas in which his knowledge of science was lacking or excelling. In fact he told me that stories he knew he wouldn't be able to solve, like the plant ones, he would just read to learn. Others he would sit and puzzle them out.\nI tried reading a couple of the stories to the other kids, ages 7 and 9, to start a science discussion. Although they definitely had the interest, problem is that before this year their science education has been lacking, and they don't read as much as James to be able to 'pick stuff up' through literature and other means. So many of the puzzles they were unable to solve, and it became more of a guessing game. I was really surprised at many of the ideas they came up with to solve the stories. They usually weren't anywhere close to right, but they sure were creative!\nI know I am going to keep this book handy for a long car or airplane trip. It will be an easy way to keep their attention in a busy airplane terminal or to hold the dreaded \"Are we there yet?\" at bay.\nWHAT I THOUGHT OF THE PRODUCT\nThis product exceeded my expectations. I loved how involved the kids could get in the mysteries. The stories were written in a perspective that really got down on their level without becoming too silly or preachy. Facts are presented so creatively that kids don't really know that they are learning while they read!\nThis is a product that I would feel good about gifting to another child. At only $9.95 it is a realistic option for a birthday gift. I feel I wouldn't even have to ask the mom if the child likes science. The way this book is written there is no way you can't like science while reading it.\nI liked this book. I thought there was very good reasoning involved in the stories.\nI liked that the book had something to solve in every part.\nI liked it because it had all different stories in it and you weren't just reading the same story with the same mystery the whole time.\nAs mentioned above, One Minute Mysteries: 65 More Short Stories You Solve With Science retails for $9.95 on the Science Naturally! website. As a special offer to my blog readers, the vendor is offering any three books from their website for only $19.95 plus $2.95 shipping. That is a savings of $12.90! Use coupon code: 3SPEC at checkout to get your savings!\nSo what other books does Science Naturally! offer? In addition to the book I reviewed, they offer many other science book and math mystery books of a similar format. Plenty of choices for all the different learners in your life!

Click here to read their reviews or click the banner below.\nAdoption Update: Although we have been viewing profiles of birth mothers, we have not had our profile shown to any gals yet. With the exception of one birth mother, all the women have not known what they were having, or they were having boys. The one having a girl was due in less than a month. At the time that was just a little too soon for us. It seems to be a season for boys and for patience.\nThe Open House for Laurel Mountain Classical Academy is this Monday! If you are local please consider coming out to check out all we have done to get this going. The fact that you don't homeschool doesn't matter, nor does the fact that you aren't interested in enrolling you kids. We would just love the support and we are also afraid we are going to be standing around staring at each other all night. We are meeting at Victorious Life Church: 214 Frye Farm Road, Greensburg. Right by the Mountain View Inn.\nSome people have wondered how we came to be at Victorious Life Church and what their involvement in our program is. Pastor Mike and his wife Wende are completely supportive of homeschooling and out of over 50 churches we approached, they were only one of three to consider letting us use their classroom space. Our program is not a religiously-based one, and we are not teaching religion. We are simply using their classroom space for a modest rent.\nTomorrow is our Barn Raising and we are doing our laundry room! I am completely excited. Here is the before photo:\nEarlier this week Henry came down wearing the same shirt Malcolm was wearing. He ran up and put on similar shorts as well. Then Isaac appeared wearing the same outfit. James refused to get in the game as well, but the three boys were beyond cute.\nOur school year is winding down, but we still have a couple weeks to go. And I think the boys will be doing writing and math beyond that. I can't decide really. I want them to finish their writing books, but I am wondering if any new material is covered in the math books from here to the end. A Beka is very review-heavy and it may just be review from here on out. We are all looking forward to a break over the summer from school. I don't know how year-around homeschoolers do it. I need a break as much as them!\nStill haven't been able to do the Grand Canyon Post. Next week at the latest! I just need to get through this Open House.\nGo visit Jen to read more Quick Takes. Also you could catch a glimpse of her gorgeous new baby!\nLabels: #7QT, Adoption, LMCA, Quick Takes\nA pop-up camper!\nWe've been talking about this for a while. A friend of Michael's was selling his and it was perfect for us!\nSo it sleeps six and has an additional room that attaches to the front of the camper. It also has a sink and stove as well as a heater. We are so excited to start camping again!\nLabels: Family, Home Improvements\nYeah, so I missed a week in there. But if you saw my calendar then you would understand why.\nHere's a little peek. We are way. too. scheduled.\nJames and I made it home safely from the Grand Canyon. What a wonderful trip it was! It deserves it's own blog post, but here's a picture to tide you over until I am able to get to that (blogging isn't on the calendar and so it may be a while).\nMalcolm has been a bit clingy since I have returned, but I don't mind because seriously that baby is the best darn snuggler we have ever had. Did I mention he plays with dolls? Well, he does and it is beyond adorable! Yesterday while I was weeding through the 300 plus emails I got while I was away he created quite the doll set-up behind me.\nI think he was keeping an eye on me in case I tried to sneak away again for a few days. Notice the shoes and coat? He was ready in case he needed to chase after me.\nSee that white wire shelf? Malcolm is obsessed with that thing and carries it around all the time. He even tried to bring it to church. He loves it and uses it in many different ways. Sometimes he spreads his night-nights on it and lays down. It is really cute. And kind of weird.\nMichael survived his first time caring for the kids alone. Usually if I have to leave his mom will come to help out. But she was in the Grand Canyon with James and I and so Michael was left on his own. All the kids survived and they had even been bathed when I returned.\nMichael didn't miss me, and that may seem a little harsh, but his reason for not missing me is very valid: He says he was too busy to miss me. He couldn't believe how many things there were to do and he never had a spare moment to think about missing me. That, my friends, was the best Mother's Day gift I have ever gotten.\nLabels: Family, Home Life, James, Malcolm\n\"The mother is everything - she is our consolation in sorrow, our hope in misery, and our strength in weakness. She is the source of love, mercy, sympathy, and forgiveness. He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly.\"",

        "raw_content": "Pennsylvania Route 221 + ADD NEW ROUTE\nIf you're coming from the north you want to take 331 to 231. 221 is just to the left after crossing the bridge on 231. (The sign for 221 was down the last time I was there.) It's not easy to miss, though. 221 off of 231 leads up a steep hill on the left.\nAbout a 3.5 I'd say. Some nice high up elevations with farmland and valleys on either side of you. It also drops down into the low lands and meanders with a creek for awhile. A good cruising road, in that regard.\nThe road varies from 3 to 4 stars. Pavement is in decent shape up to good shape with no real problems aside from right near 231 where there's a dip on the north bound lane of the road. Take care.\nNone. Short of the towns you pass through, specifically when passing by US 40 and I-70 for gas and food there's nothing on the route it's self in the way of amenities besides some covered bridges off to the side.\nA pretty good road in it's own right. It's not that far from Waynesburg or Washington, so it's not exactly and all day ride to get there from a city. It's sister road 231 makes for a great loop, and even bigger and more fun loop than listed on this site.\nSouthwest PA is not especially known for it's twisties, but rather it's access to twisties. However, when the weather is cold out I don't want to ride my typical 450 miles loops so I stay closer to home with routes like this, 231, 130 and such. All solid rides that aren't especially challenging, but good enough to keep you entertained until the weather warms up and allows you to expand your mileage. (Or perhaps time is an issue and you want to stay closer to home for that sake.) Regardless, this is a solid road, never really boring, but not exactly challenging either. The stereotypical cruiser ride would like this road.",

As the part of Asian countries, Japan has been benefited from prosperities of neighboring Asian countries such as China by exporting industrial materials and products. Meanwhile, Japan has been losing foreign companies in the domestic market because of the declining population, the high corporation tax, and high yen against other currencies.\nSome people may think that foreign companies completely lose their interests in Japan, but they do not. Japan remains to be an interesting place for foreign companies to get ideas for product innovations. We are still requested by foreign companies to share information about the latest trend in the Japanese market. Places like Akihabara, keep attracting foreigners as a shopping area for electronics and anime products, too. The visitors are fascinated with many latest consumer electronics at stores.\nWhile the Japanese market is seen as shrinking, product innovations in the Japanese market are not shrinking at all.\nHitoshi Iwashita Value Associates Inc. Asian Market Entry Consulting\nGenerally speaking Japan, one of the biggest developed countries, is facing a big challenge which no other market has experienced so far: an ageing society and decreasing birthrate.\nIn 2005 the population of Japan started to decrease for the first time since World War II. It is forecast to continue to decrease in the next couple of decades.\nThis implies a question: should we enter and develop an ageing and shrinking market such as Japan?\nYou might think \ufffdNO\ufffd is the answer - however, we must always be aware of the business opportunity behind market changes.\nFor example in Japan there are huge growing markets, especially in health care for elders. Health care service and credit card issuers are starting to provide health care desks and second opinions, and in the food industry, there is a shift in consumer preferences from high volume inexpensive product to more health care, organic healthy food in a small package.\nAs an example of apparel market entry in Japan, this year H&M entered and planned to open 3 stores by the end of 2008. A potential opportunity for stylish apparel where few competitors exist?\nHideo Kobayashi, General Manager in the Global Research Division of IID, Inc.\nJapanese high tech product developments continue to lead the world, particularly in transportation machinery, car electronics, digital devices, electronic home appliances, and video games. In addition, the international fashion industry has focused attention on Japan, with renowned name brands opening flagship stores throughout Tokyo. Japan has positioned itself as a world trend leader not only in technology, but also in subculture (animation, comics, movies, etc.) and fashion.\nAlthough these trends continue, a recent slump in the automotive industry's domestic demand is evident, and some international companies have made comments such as, 'the matured Japanese market is unappealing as a target for business clientele'.\nHowever, since Japan still holds a strong position as a world trend leader for a variety of products and services, understanding market structures and product marketability in this country enable international businesses to have a key to future possibilities in the Asian market. Longstanding sentiment has been that most Asian trends start in Japan: it has been said, 'If you can't sell it in Japan, then you can't sell it in Asia'.\nFurthermore, in the current financial turmoil and the fear of global recession, the Japanese financial market, experiencing and learning from the bitter burst of the 1990's bubble economy, has barely been affected and remains strong. In the near future, it is believed that the marketing of commodities in the Japanese market will grow in importance and come under the world spotlight, leading to an acceleration of market research and analysis.",

Their instrumental works are mostly signed with \"di Graun\" or \"del Signor Graun\". It is hardly possible to discern the compositions of the two brothers with any amount of certainty. Only two of the works on these two discs can be attributed to one of them: the Symphony in B flat and the Concerto for violin, viola, strings and bc in c minor. To make things even more complicated, compositions which are attributed to one of the Graun brothers could well have been composed by someone else. According to Michael Schneider that is also the case with the Concerto for bassoon, strings and bc in F. \"A close examination of the manuscript reveals that only 'di Grau.' can be deciphered as the ascription - and this, in my opinion, points much more to 'Graupner' (...) than to 'Graun'. In any case, I am convinced that it is a work by Graupner and not one of the two Grauns\". What could speak in favour of this assumption is that the concerto has been preserved in the archive of the court of Darmstadt, where Christoph Graupner worked for many years as Kapellmeister. If it is indeed composed by Graupner, it is a worthwhile addition to the bassoon concertos which are known to be from Graupner's pen and which have been recorded complete only recently by Sergio Azzolini.\nOne of the reasons there is so much confusion is the fact that their lives and careers are so strongly intertwined. For a long time they worked at the same court, in the chapel of Frederick the Great. Both Grauns were born in Wahrenbr\u00fcck in Saxony, but as in 1714 the church registers were lost by fire their exact years of birth aren't known. Both attended he Kreuzschule in Dresden and both studied at Leipzig University. Johann Gottlieb took violin lessons from Johann Georg Pisendel in Dresden, and later went to Padua in Italy to study under Giuseppe Tartini. In 1726 he was appointed Konzertdirektor in Merseburg. Johann Sebastian Bach sent his eldest son Wilhelm Friedemann to Graun to study the violin.\nAlthough Carl Heinrich received lessons in keyboard playing he was first and foremost active as a singer. He sang in several opera productions. During his time in Dresden he seems to have composed at least two cycles of church cantatas but the music has been lost. In 1724 he was appointed as a tenor at the court of Duke August Wilhelm of Brunswick-Wolfenb\u00fcttel, where he concentrated on performing music in Italian style. His own operas also were Italian in character. In 1735 he moved to Berlin joining the court chapel where Johann Gottlieb was already working.\nIt is reasonable to assume that Johann Gottlieb has written most of the instrumental works. But as Carl Heinrich also composed instrumental music there is no reason to attribute all instrumental pieces to Johann Gottlieb. And therefore in many cases the question of the authorship has to remain unanswered.\nThe music of the Graun's is an important link between the early baroque period and the early classical era. They mixed elements of both styles, for instance polyphony and homophony. In general one could say that their instrumental compositions are a bit more conservative than the music which was written by the members of the Mannheim School. What is clear, though, is that in the solo parts the development towards greater virtuosity is reflected in the concertos. That is the case here in the Concerto for violin, viola, strings and bc in c minor. A little old-fashioned is the use of the recorder in the Concerto in C. At the time the recorder had largely fallen from grace; it is the only piece by the Grauns which has a recorder part. This could well be written with a specific player in mind. A modern element is the use of muted strings in the slow movements of the Concerto in c minor and the Symphony in B flat. The CPO disc ends with another piece that has formerly been attributed to another composer. The Concerto in e minor was assumed to have been written by Pierre-Gabriel Buffardin, who from 1715 to 1750 was flautist of the Dresden court orchestra. It has also been attributed to Quantz and to Locatelli, but it seems that it is an authentic Graun composition. The scoring with two violins and bc - without viola - suggests a performance with one instrument per part. That is how it is performed by the Cappella Academica Frankfurt.\nMost pieces have been recorded before, at least the Concerto in c minor and the Concerto in C, but probably not so well. Here we get very lively performances, with strong contrasts and immaculate ensemble. The soloists give impressive accounts of their parts. In the slow movement of the Concerto in F the bassoon is accompanied by basso continuo alone. Here the harpsichord is joined by another bassoon, and that makes it sometimes hard to tell the solo part and the continuo line apart. I am not sure that this was the composer's intention.\nThe second disc claims to bring all of the chamber music with wind by the Graun brothers. This disc was first released in 2002, and has now been reissued. The booklet doesn't mention that, but I have the original disc in my cupboard with a different picture at the front. Strangely enough the errors in the tracklist have not been corrected. It says that the Concerto in D sharp is for horn, oboe d'amore and bc, whereas in fact two oboi d'amore are playing with the horn and the basso continuo. When this disc was first released I wrote a review for the German magazine Alte Musik Aktuell (now Toccata/Alte Musik Aktuell). I didn't particularly like the performances, and having heard them another time I haven't seen any reason to change my mind. These performances are dynamically too flat, with little differentiation between notes, and also not very speech-like. The tempi are mostly too slow as well. Two of the pieces, the trios with horn, have also been recorded by Claude Maury and the Ricercar Consort (Ricercar), and they have are much more convincing in every respect. But as far as I know the other pieces are not recorded elsewhere, so if you are interested in this repertoire this disc may have some attraction. But a better recording is highly desirable.\nThe booklet contains some information about the interpretation by Karla Schr\u00f6ter, but the track-list doesn't give any catalogue numbers.",

Covering an area of about 1,001,450 square kilometers (386,560 square miles), Egypt borders Libya to the west, Sudan to the south, and Israel and the Gaza Strip to the northeast; on the north and the east are the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, respectively. Egypt (Misr) is the sixteenth most populous country in the world. The vast majority of its 78.8 million population (2006) live near the banks of the Nile River (about 40,000 km\u00b2 or 15,450 sq miles), where the only arable agricultural land is found. Large areas of land are part of the Sahara Desert and are sparsely inhabited. About half of the Egyptian people today are urban, living in the densely populated centres of greater Cairo, the largest city in Africa and the Middle East, and Alexandria. Egypt is famous for its ancient civilization and some of the world's most ancient and important monuments, including the Giza Pyramids and the Great Sphinx of Giza; the southern city of Luxor contains a particularly large number of ancient artifacts such as the Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings.

        "raw_content": "Greek American miners in shadow of Ludlow Massacre of the sacrifice of Louis Tikas\nIn the late 1800s and early 1900s, coal miners used candles to make their way deep underground through the mines, a dangerous practice because of the highly explosive nature of coal dust.\nThe 1929 funeral of Chris Melonakis\u2019 grandfather, who died from an infection 10 days after unsanitary dental work. He worked in the mine until the day before he died.\nThe strike eventually blew up into one of the the most violent times in labor history. In 1914, women and children suffocated when company-backed militiamen burned the union tent camp at Ludlow, Colorado. The Ludlow Massacre ignited 10 days of violence known as the Colorado Coal Field War.\nHundreds of thousands of Greeks immigrated to the U.S. in the early 1900s. For many the only work they could get was in the dangerous coal mines around the West. Most of the Greeks in southern Colorado were working in coal mines owned by the huge Colorado Fuel and Iron company, known as CF&I. The mines were notoriously dangerous and the miners lived in extreme poverty.\nGreek miners have been called the bone and sinew of the strike, and freedom fighters. Their story is the focus of a new documentary: \u201cLudlow, Greek Americans During The Colorado Coal War.\u201d The film screens at the University of Colorado in Boulder on Tuesday, Sept. 20.\nFrosso Tsouka of Athens, Greece is one of the filmmakers and retired Colorado district judge Chris Melonakis of Westminster is a descendant of Greek miners. They spoke with Colorado Matters host Nathan Heffel.\nIn 1910, the year Louis Tikas filed his citizenship papers, he was part owner of a Greek coffee house on Market Street in Denver. By the end of 1912 he was an organizer for the United Mine Workers of America. In between he worked as a miner-strikebreaker in Colorado\u2019s Northern (Coal) Field but ended up leading a walkout by sixty-three fellow Greeks at the Frederick, Colorado mine. It was a short journey in time, but a long leap across the ages.\n\u201cSo Tikas enters his destiny,\u201d wrote Zeese Papanikolas:\nIt is a moment worth considering. In making the turn from scab to striker he was following the path of thousands of immigrants before him, of whole nationalities. In a profound way, more than at that moment when he set foot on Ellis Island, more than at that other moment when he signed his first papers with a new name, walking out of the Frederick stockade was the most American thing he had done. The revolt of the Greeks in the Utah Copper Company mines [led by the Western Federation of Miners in September 1912] was prophetic. For when the Greeks at Bingham, Utah, rose up against [the padrone] Leonidas Skliris, without knowing it they were rising up against a whole ethos, that ignorance, that poverty in their past which had created such men as Skliris and which, in this New World so desperately needed them. The Bingham strike had not made union men of the Greeks. It was for Tikas and the immigrant organizers like him to take such unformed revolts one step further; to make of the anarchy of the industrial world a map (Papanikolas, Page 49. Emphasis added).\nIn 1912 there had been much recent history in the ongoing struggles to construct such a map; a mighty conflict was still being waged against the power of monopoly capital by the American people. Politically, that war had manifested itself in the Populist movement; the Grange movement and the farmers\u2019 revolt; the 1896 candidacy of William Jennings Bryan for President; and the efforts to build a party of labor. On the labor front were the struggles to build national and industrial unions to effectively counter the power of the great trusts. Fierce battles were fought in the great strikes of the period. There was the great railroad strike of 1877, the first nationwide strike in history, where \u201cAmerican troops fired on American workingmen as regiments under General Phil Sheridan were recalled from fighting the Sioux and thrown against the workers of Chicago\u201d (Boyer and Morais, Page 59).\nThere was the massacre of union men at Homestead (Pennsylvania) Steel in 1892 and the bloody defeat of the Eugene Debs-led American Railway Union in 1894 when monopoly pulled out all the stops and used the power of the federal government (employing 14,000 troops, marshals and police) to break the Pullman Strike. In Colorado, state Governors used troops to act as strikebreakers on behalf of corporate interests on ten separate occasions between 1879 and 1904 (and would again at Ludlow in 1914), mostly against the Western Federation of Miners and the United Mine Workers (Ibid., Page 142).\nAlthough the broader issue largely had been settled by the time Louis Tikas became a UMWA organizer in 1912 the war had not ended, and the legacy and spirit of those working people\u2019s struggles were not lost on him and others of his generation.\nTikas was chased from the northern field, shot and wounded by Baldwin-Felts detectives as he escaped through the back door of a boarding house in Lafayette, Colorado in January 1910. But he had proved his worth as an organizer among the Greek workers to UMWA leaders like John Lawson, District 15 International organizer (Papanikolas, Pages 51-52). When the UMWA held a special convention in Trinidad, Colorado September 16, 1913 to list its demands and issue the Southern Field strike call, Tikas was there (Ibid., Page 76).\nPhilip Foner pointed out, \u201cAs in the case of the 1903 strike, nearly all of the demands were already on the statute books of Colorado but had been ignored by the company\u201d (Foner, Page 201). CF&I further ignored the miners\u2019 strike demands and immediately evicted between eleven and thirteen thousand of them from the company houses they and their families lived in. A mass exodus soon took place:\nThey hitched their scrawny teams to wagons, loaded their shabby belongings and frightened families, and began the slow trip down the canyons toward the tent cities [thirteen colonies overall, provided by the union] in locations near Walsenburg, Aguilar, Ludlow, Forbes, and Starkville.\nClouds boiled down over the mountains and dumped an icy rain on the slow caravans. Horses and mules slipped and stumbled in the mud as they wound their way down steep grades. Miners cursed. Women wept. Children, too miserable to cry, huddled in the wagons, peering out through the cold sleet, their faces pinched and ghostlike in the gloom (Sampson, \u2018Remember Ludlow!, Page 12).\nThe tent colony at Ludlow\u2013under Louis Tikas\u2019 leadership\u2013was the largest of these. Located eighteen miles north of Trinidad, it became home for more than a thousand people (including most of the Greek workers and their families) for the next six months, during which one of Colorado\u2019s worst winters was to unfold.\nMarch to Tragedy The events of the next six months were a steady march toward tragedy, toward what Foner labeled \u201cone of the most shameful episodes in American history\u201d (Foner, Page 196). In keeping with the tried and true formula used so successfully against striking workers in the past, CF&I moved swiftly to the attack. It immediately doubled its guard force, made up largely of Baldwin-Felts detectives, increased their weapons stores and laid siege to the tent colonies. An armored car (the \u201cDeath Special\u201d) with a mounted machine gun, built especially by the company for the purpose, ceaselessly patrolled the strike district, firing into the tent colonies indiscriminately. The Forbes colony was fired into on October 17, killing one miner and severely wounding a little boy and girl (Sampson, \u2018Remember Ludlow!\u2019, Pages 13-14). \u201cOn October 24, mine guards, wearing deputy sheriff badges as usual, fired into a group of strikers in Walsenburg an killed four of them\u201d (Foner, Page 202).\nColorado Governor Ammons on October 31 sent the National Guard\u2013a thousand troops under the command of union-hater General John Chase\u2013into the strike district. These troops were ordered to remain neutral (as they did at first), but as time passed, many grew tired of the duty and quit. They were replaced more and more by company thugs who drew double paychecks, one from the state and one from the coal companies (Ibid., Page 203. Sampson, \u2018Remember Ludlow!\u2019, Page 14).\nThen, \u201cOn November 28, Governor Ammons, yielding to pressure, lifted the ban on the importation of strikebreakers from outside the state and ordered the militia to become the protective agent for the escort of the scabs into the mines.\u201d This pressure of course came from the usual sources: mine owners, bankers, businessmen, citizens\u2019 committees, newspaper editors, etc. (Foner, Page 203).\nMeanwhile, the companies\u2019 terror campaign against the tent colonies was stepped up:\nIn searching the miners\u2019 tents for guns, the militiamen robbed them and even raped some of the women. Strikers were thrown into jail without the slightest provocation and were held without any opportunity to prove their innocence.\nMother Jones [who had come to Colorado to assist the miners] was arrested and held incommunicado for twenty days, with two armed sentries posted outside her prison door\u2026. [In January] militia cavalrymen destroyed the tent colony near Forbes and drove the inhabitants, including women and children, into a mountain snowstorm (Ibid., Page 203).\nThe stage was set for the \u201cfinal solution\u201d in early April 1914, when \u201cGovernor Ammons withdrew all but two of the [National Guard] troops from the field\u2026leaving Company A, a cavalry outfit, and Troop B in the field. These two troops were made up mostly of company men, mine guards and gunmen and were stationed near Ludlow\u201d (Sampson, \u2018Remember Ludlow!\u2019, Page 16).\nThe Ludlow Massacre began the morning of April 20, the day after the people at the Ludlow colony had celebrated their Greek Easter. After the explosion of several bombs, an apparent signal to attack, troops surrounding the colony began firing into it. All day long, machine gun bullets ripped through the tents. As Joanna Sampson has described the scene: \u201cThe tent colony exploded in terror. People dodged bullets. Frantic parents searched for their children while screaming \u2018run for the hills!\u2019 Dogs and chickens ran wildly up and down the streets\u201d (Ibid., Page 19).\nToward evening, the soldiers \u201cadvanced with [Rockefeller] Standard oil, soaked the tents and set them afire\u201d (O\u2019Connor, Page 1). Soon after, Louis Tikas, who during the long day had heroically helped women, children and the wounded escape the carnage, was captured by the militia and taken before Lieutenant Karl Linderfelt, who grabbed a rifle and broke it over Tikas\u2019 head. Though the exact details following that incident are not known, Tikas soon was dead, shot three times in the back. Thus the circumstances of Tikas\u2019 death\u2013even though it is well known he was murdered by coal company managers and the state of Colorado\u2013are similar to what is left us about his life: a \u201cshadow caught against the flow of history.\u201d But the shadow cast by his legacy for future generations of working people is a long one.\nThe next day two women and eleven children were found dead in a pit the miners had dug beneath one of the tents, suffocated where they had retreated to escape the bullets and fire. More than 30 were killed and 100 wounded during the course of the strike. The strikers fought back savagely after Ludlow, attacking company property and firing on mine guards throughout the district. The war ended only when federal troops arrived on the scene to enforce a truce.\n\u201cJohn D. Rockefeller, Jr. won the Ludlow Massacre,\u201d Harvey O\u2019Connor wrote. \u201cThe women and children were no match for him.\u201d\nThe scorn of the nation was turned on this industrial autocrat. Men and women in mourning picketed his offices at 26 Broadway, New York City. He was denounced in Congress and all over America. President Wilson directed the Industrial Relations Commission to find out why he and his fellow millionaires hated unions so much that they would murder to protect the open shop. [Detailed accounts of the strike and massacre appear as part of the testimony before that commission. Foner and others have relied extensively on the findings in their studies.]\nIn vain did Rockefeller and his aged father try to wash the blood of Ludlow from their hands by lavish gifts to charity. For every dollar they gave away, a mother wept a bitter tear for her charred child; a widow breathed a curse upon the murderer of her husband (O\u2019Connor, Pages 1-2).\nsource: Greek World Media\ngreek american miners\nlouis tikas",

        "raw_content": "Written by Cameron Webb, Clinical Lecturer and Principal Hospital Scientist, University of Sydney\nWe\u2019re often warned to avoid mosquito bites after major flooding events. With more water around, there are likely to be more mosquitoes.\nAs flood waters recede around Townsville and clean-up efforts continue, the local population will be faced with this prospect over the coming weeks.\nBut whether a greater number of mosquitoes is likely to lead to an outbreak of mosquito-borne disease is tricky to predict. It depends on a number of factors, including the fate of other wildlife following a disaster of this kind.\nMozzies need water\nMosquitoes lay their eggs in and around water bodies. In the initial stages, baby mosquitoes (or \u201cwrigglers\u201d) need the water to complete their development. During the warmer months, it doesn\u2019t take much longer than a week before they are grown and fly off looking for blood.\nSo the more water, the more mosquito eggs are laid, and the more mosquitoes end up buzzing about.\nBut outbreaks of disease carried by mosquitoes are dependent on more than just their presence. Mosquitoes rarely emerge from wetlands infected with pathogens. They typically need to pick them up from biting local wildlife, such as birds or mammals, before they can spread disease to people.\nRead more: The worst year for mosquitoes ever? Here's how we find out\nMosquitoes and extreme weather events\nHistorically, major inland flooding events have triggered significant outbreaks of mosquito-borne disease in Australia. These outbreaks have included epidemics of the potentially fatal Murray Valley encephalitis virus. In recent decades, Ross River virus has more commonly been the culprit.\nA focal point of the current floods is the Ross River, which runs through Townsville. The Ross River virus was first identified from mosquitoes collected along this waterway. The disease it causes, known as Ross River fever, is diagnosed in around 5,000 Australians every year. The disease isn\u2019t fatal but it can be seriously debilitating.\nFollowing substantial rainfall, mosquito populations can dramatically increase. Carbon dioxide baited light traps are used by local authorities to monitor changes in mosquito populations. Cameron Webb (NSW Health Pathology)\nIn recent years, major outbreaks of Ross River virus have occurred throughout the country. Above average rainfall is likely a driving factor as it boosts both the abundance and diversity of local mosquitoes.\nFlooding across Victoria over the 2016-2017 summer produced exceptional increases in mosquitoes and resulted in the state\u2019s largest outbreak of Ross River virus. There were almost 1,700 cases of Ross River virus disease reported there in 2017 compared to an average of around 300 cases annually over the previous 20 years.\nRead more: Explainer: what is Ross River virus?\nDespite plagues of mosquitoes taking advantage of flood waters, outbreaks of disease don\u2019t always follow.\nFlooding resulting from hurricanes in North America has been associated with increased mosquito populations. After Hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana and Mississippi in 2005, there was no evidence of increased mosquito-borne disease. The impact of wind and rain is likely to have adversely impacted local mosquitoes and wildlife, subsequently reducing disease outbreak risk.\nApplying insect repellent is worthwhile even if the risk of mosquito-borne disease isn\u2019t known. From shutterstock.com\nAustralian studies suggest there\u2019s not always an association between flooding and Ross River virus outbreaks. Outbreaks can be triggered by flooding, but this is not always the case. Where and when the flooding occurs probably plays a major role in determining the likelihood of an outbreak.\nThe difficulty in predicting outbreaks of Ross River virus disease is that there can be complex biological, environmental and climatic drivers at work. Conditions may be conducive for large mosquito populations, but if the extreme weather events have displaced (or decimated) local wildlife populations, there may be a decreased chance of outbreak.\nThis may be why historically significant outbreaks of mosquito-borne disease have occurred in inland regions. Water can persist in these regions for longer than coastal areas. This provides opportunities not only for multiple mosquito generations, but also for increasing populations of water birds. These birds can be important carriers of pathogens such as the Murray Valley encephalitis virus.\nRead more: Giant mosquitoes flourish in floodwaters that hurricanes leave behind\nIn coastal regions like Townsville, where the main concern would be Ross River virus, flood waters may displace the wildlife that carry the virus, such as kangaroos and wallabies. For that reason, the flood waters may actually reduce the initial risk of outbreak.\nThere is still much to learn about the ecology of wildlife and their role in driving outbreaks of disease. And with a fear of more frequent and severe extreme weather events in the future, it\u2019s an important area of research.\nAlthough it remains difficult to predict the likelihood of a disease outbreak, there are steps that can be taken to avoid mosquito bites. This will be useful even if just to reduce the nuisance of sustaining bites.\nCover up with long-sleeved shirts and long pants for a physical barrier against mosquito bites and use topical insect repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus. Be sure to apply an even coat on all exposed areas of skin for the longest lasting protection.\nRead more http://theconversation.com/after-the-floods-come-the-mosquitoes-but-the-disease-risk-is-more-difficult-to-predict-111173",

        "raw_content": "Home / Entertainment / Music / 5 Classical Music Faces to Watch This Season\n5 Classical Music Faces to Watch This Season\nThe classical music season sprawls over centuries and the entire globe, a dizzying array of performances that manages to include both multimillion-dollar productions in front of 4,000 spectators at the Metropolitan Opera and intimate electronic experiments at Issue Project Room in Brooklyn. A balanced cultural diet would include a bit of both, as well as generous helpings of the five artists featured here; we\u2019re particularly looking forward to seeing what they\u2019re up to in the months ahead. They\u2019re musicians who unite virtuosic technique with boundless curiosity, creating new works and reshaping the way we hear old ones. ZACHARY WOOLFE\nThe word \u201cluminous\u201d gets thrown around a lot when it comes to singers, but the soprano Julia Bullock has earned it. Just listen to the way she sings, then repeats, then repeats once more, a simple question \u2014 \u201cAm I in your light?\u201d \u2014 in John Adams\u2019s \u201cDoctor Atomic,\u201d capturing in just a few seconds a character\u2019s love and loneliness. When she appeared as Kitty Oppenheimer in a new staging of that work this summer at Santa Fe Opera, Ms. Bullock brought new complexity to the role: flintiness, obsession, intelligence, sensuality. She took nothing about the part for granted, just as she and the composer Tyshawn Sorey took nothing about Josephine Baker for granted in their pensive evening-length reinterpretation of Baker songs, a work still in progress. It will be among the offerings in Ms. Bullock\u2019s residency this season at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, an exciting showcase for an artist who unites vocal glamour and deep thoughtfulness. She\u2019ll also appear in a chamber version of Mr. Adams\u2019s Nativity oratorio \u201cEl Ni\u00f1o,\u201d and in a program of Langston Hughes poems set to music. The residency culminates in a rare revival of Hans Werner Henze\u2019s \u201cEl Cimarr\u00f3n\u201d (\u201cThe Runaway Slave\u201d) for baritone and small ensemble \u2014 Ms. Bullock will presumably be watching from the audience \u2014 based on the story of an escaped Afro-Cuban slave. In June she stars alongside Dav\u00f3ne Tines in Terence Blanchard and Kasi Lemmons\u2019s \u201cFire Shut Up in My Bones,\u201d based on Charles Blow\u2019s memoir, at Opera Theater of St. Louis. ZACHARY WOOLFE\nConrad Tao made a humble Lincoln Center debut with a piano recital one Sunday morning last December, in front of a white-haired audience sipping coffee. But there was nothing sleepy about his performance: adventurous, agile and often electrifying as he navigated works both contemporary and classical. This season, the 24-year-old polymath is back, now as a composer with a much larger platform: the New York Philharmonic. In recent years, Mr. Tao has caught the attention and admiration of Jaap van Zweden, the Philharmonic\u2019s new music director, who invited Mr. Tao to write a new work for the orchestra. The piece, \u201cEverything Must Go,\u201d has its premiere on Sept. 27 and is intended as a curtain-raiser for Bruckner\u2019s Eighth Symphony. Mr. Tao will also perform at Lincoln Center\u2019s Kaplan Penthouse for the inaugural program of Nightcap, an afterparty-like Philharmonic initiative created with the violist and new-music specialist Nadia Sirota. And that\u2019s not all: Mr. Tao will be busy with the score for \u201cMore Forever,\u201d a new evening-length dance work Caleb Teicher is choreographing for his company. The Guggenheim Museum\u2019s Works & Process series will host a preview in October, ahead of the dance\u2019s premiere at the museum in January. JOSHUA BARONE\nAshley Fure\u2019s recent work about climate change wasn\u2019t exactly about climate change. \u201cThe Force of Things,\u201d which she called an \u201copera for objects,\u201d was more precisely about the emotional impact, the permeating anxiety, of a mounting ecological crisis whose impact is simultaneously omnipresent and imperceptible. Singers whispered ominously in a language we in the audience couldn\u2019t quite understand. Subwoofers made sounds too low-frequency for us to hear, but the waves they produced had material \u2014 and, indeed, musical \u2014 effect. Glacial and scary, the piece conjured the internal and external world in which we now live with far more acuteness than more overtly \u201cpolitical\u201d compositions I\u2019ve heard. Given its New York premiere this summer by Lincoln Center\u2019s Mostly Mozart Festival, it was work of impressive subtlety and confidence. The New York Philharmonic clearly has confidence in Ms. Fure, too: It\u2019s giving her its biggest stage, the opening slot on its season-beginning gala program, Jaap van Zweden\u2019s first as the orchestra\u2019s music director, on Sept. 20. Immersive and hall-filling, the piece, \u201cFilament,\u201d features adventurous musicians \u2014 Rebekah Heller, Brandon Lopez, Nate Wooley, Constellation Chor \u2014 who are not, to say the least, Philharmonic regulars. It\u2019s clearly meant to be a loud signal that a new era is beginning at Geffen Hall. ZACHARY WOOLFE\nContemporary music is a rarity at the Metropolitan Opera, which didn\u2019t stage John Adams\u2019s \u201cNixon in China\u201d \u2014 one of modern opera\u2019s undisputed masterpieces \u2014 until more than 20 years after its premiere. Yet twice within the past five years, the company has presented new works by Nico Muhly, a wunderkind-turned-war horse. His first major opera, \u201cTwo Boys,\u201d which ran at the Met in 2013, featured a fine, if unlikely, entry into the canon of great opera choruses: \u201cU There? / Who Is This?,\u201d which radiantly evoked the frenetic energy of internet chat rooms and the excitement that comes with first speaking to a stranger online. Behind this luminous music, however, was a dark story of catfishing and violent crime. The tone is not terribly brighter for Mr. Muhly\u2019s follow-up, \u201cMarnie,\u201d which has its American premiere at the Met in October. (This isn\u2019t his only premiere in store for the coming season: The Tallis Scholars will perform a new work of his at the Miller Theater in December, and Trinity Wall Street is scheduled for another in February.) Adapted from Winston Graham\u2019s 1961 novel, which inspired Alfred Hitchcock\u2019s 1964 film, \u201cMarnie\u201d tells the story of an elusive young woman prone to theft and changing identities. With there be any groundbreaking choral moments here, too? Mr. Muhly offered a glimpse in an interview with The New York Times last year: \u201cThey can function as real people \u2014 in the office, at the pub, at the country club. But they can also switch into a psychologically oppressive force.\u201d JOSHUA BARONE\nAt 11, an age when many student violinists are still toiling through elementary \u00e9tudes, Hilary Hahn made her debut with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. Performances with some of the great American orchestras \u2014 in New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland \u2014 followed. So did her first album: At 17, she recorded three of Bach\u2019s solo violin works, including the Second Partita and its infamous Chaconne, an audacious choice for a young artist. Her interpretations were clear and declarative, and utterly convincing. As if that weren\u2019t enough of a statement, she also contributed liner notes to the album, which was a hit for Sony. In a 2002 interview with The Times, she was asked whether she would ever return with the remaining Bach solo works. \u201cI don\u2019t have any plans for them at the moment, because I like to still have them ahead of me for a while, something to look forward to,\u201d she said. Well, 16 years later \u2014 and just over two decades since that debut was released \u2014 Ms. Hahn has finished the job. \u201cHilary Hahn Plays Bach: Sonatas 1 & 2, Partita 1\u201d is out Oct. 5 on the Decca label, and her calendar for the coming season is a victory lap of Bach recitals around the world, including a stop in New York during Lincoln Center\u2019s White Light Festival on Oct. 23.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Politics \u00bb Fayose is a street thug - Presidency\nFayose is a street thug - Presidency\nThe Presidency yesterday described Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose as a \u201cstreet-type thug\u201d being mistaken for a \u201cgadfly\u201d by the media..\nIt added that the result of Saturday\u2019s Ekit State governorship election won by All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate Kayode Fayemi, proved that the PDP is irreparably broken and dismantled.\nThe Presidency said the election remained a credit for the party\u2019s national leader. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.\nThe position of the Presidency was contained in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu.\nIt said it was clear to Nigerians that Fayose had been \u201ca high-powered nothing.\u201d\nThe statement said: \u201cFor the People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP) which came second in the election in a state that they held sway, it is a loss politically and psychologically.\n\u201cThe result of the election has proved that the PDP is irreparably broken and dismantled. They have nothing to offer to the country and its people. The message from Ekiti is that no state in Nigeria will vote PDP. Never again.\n\u201cAs for Mr. Fayose and his morbid brand of politics, it is now his time to reconcile himself to the imminent political extinction he faces, his political career sealed for good. Newspapers have mistaken him for a gadfly who creates discomfort for the government at the centre to make it better, but Fayose is a street-type thug.\n\u201cHe never fits the role of a gadfly because he thrives on bitter enmity. Opposition does not mean a negative view of everything. Neither does it translate into a licence to abuse your superiors.\u201d\nThe presidency described the outcome of the poll as a referendum on President Muhammadu Buhari and a template for his second term aspiration.\nThe statement said: \u201cThe people of the politically significant State of Ekiti have spoken against their Governor, outgoing governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, who told them that the governorship election they just had was a referendum on President Muhammadu Buhari. He said candidates Kayode Fayemi and Olusola Eleka were pawns and that he and President Buhari were the actual contestants.\n\u201cIn what observers said was the most intense, and a most angry campaign, the people gave their verdict: Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the one-time governor, declared persona-non-grata is now persona-grata again.\nPresident Buhari has won this referendum. The people of the State have sent a clear message. The politics of brinksmanship, assaults, insults, abuses and Robin Hoodism disguised as stomach infrastructure has been rejected in favour of politics of inclusion, development, responsibility and good governance.\nPresident Buhari\u2019s war against corruption and insecurity; the message of agric revolution and infrastructure development and fidelity in resource allocation and management have struck a chord with Ekiti voters, who had been lied to and deceived by Governor Fayose.\n\u201cWhile the opposition continued to rant at him, President Buhari\u2019s uprightness, coupled with incorruptibility and personal integrity, unmatched by any politician in the country has again stood the test of time.\nThe All Progressives Congress (APC) win in Ekiti means that the Party has control over 25 out of the 36 states of the Federation. The party thus becomes the only one in power in the six states of the South-West geopolitical zone.\nThe Presidency said the victory of APC was a credit to the National Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.\nIt added: \u201cBesides reinforcing the APC\u2019s position as the only standing pole in the political landscape, it is a credit to the national leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, against whom all manner of ethnic and religious opposition is being mounted by former President Obasanjo and some of the Asiwaju\u2019s sworn enemies in the sub-region.\n\u201cWith this, the political landscape of the South-West has been transformed. APC\u2019s regional strength has been strengthened and the Asiwaju will be respected even better. Without losing patience and decorum, the Asiwaju has proved that rivals must reconcile and come to terms or lose everything.\n\u201cThis win is equally a huge boost to the APC and its new leadership under Chairman Adams Oshiomole, who got their first baptism of fire in Ekiti. It is, importantly, a big boost to the second term ambition of President Muhammadu Buhari.\n\u201cThe winner of the election, Governor Fayemi\u2019s trajectory from a persona-non-grata to a persona-grata again has given a wave of cheer to APC members all over the country. It has given a fresh hope that fake news, lies and propaganda run only short distances, because they have short legs.\n\u201cAn old proverb says you can\u2019t beat something with nothing. After all the noise, theatricals and drama, Fayose\u2019s fall came with a thud, not a bang: a high-powered nothing.\u201d\nDon't worry Nigerians love him like that, because he speak the mind of the people, while APC government is full of lies,deceit, killings, hunger strike, committing suicide, selling children, stealling food on the fire etc, APC bad government, change my foot",

        "title": "Pinehurst Resort: A snapshot of all nine golf courses | North Carolina Golf",
        "raw_content": "VILLAGE OF PINEHURST, N.C. -- With nine golf courses, it's tough to play all 162 holes at the Pinehurst Resort, especially if you're planning to play elsewhere around the Carolina Sandhills.\nPinehurst Resort boasts nine courses to choose from, including No. 1, shown here.\nNorthCarolinaGolf.com's guide to great golf and more in the Village of Pinehurst\nWhile U.S. Open and U.S. Women's Open host Pinehurst No. 2 is well known and discussed at length, the other seven golf courses have their own story to tell. More than a century of history binds the courses, which were built between 1897 and 2005.\nCommon themes among them is that walking is always allowed and caddies are always available. It's also tough to find any boring green complexes among them, as even the courses built after Donald Ross' death pay tribute to Ross-style crowned, elevated greens.\nHere is a snapshot of the golf courses at Pinehurst Resort, which may help you narrow down which to book and which to set aside for another trip.\nPinehurst No. 1 was originally built before Ross arrived, but it bears much of his style after he redesigned the course in 1913. It's just 6,093 yards, but short game flaws have nowhere to hide on the course's crowned, often elevated greens. It's a favorite of members, who can get around the course fast.\nThe masterpiece of the nine Pinehurst Resort courses, Pinehurst No. 2 was the second course to be built. But Ross, who had a house off the third green, constantly tweaked and tinkered with it until his death in 1948. Famed No. 2 is the most requested and most expensive to play, so if you're not a checklist golfer, you may want to pass it up for one of the other seven.\nBut history and design buffs and U.S. Open fans won't want to miss this lesson in golf course design, especially around the greens. Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw restored the course leading up to the 2014 U.S. Open and U.S. Women's Open. The sandy waste areas that have replaced rough have given the course an iconic look and unique playing style - not to mention a more green, water-friendly approach to maintenance.\nPinehurst No. 3 is the shortest of the resort courses at just 5,682 yards and has just two sets of tees. Don't expect a pushover, though. The greens are the smallest on the property and are usually crowned and heavily bunkered. The fairways are usually narrow and have some sharp doglegs.\nPlaying beside No. 2, Pinehurst No. 4 is the most different and modern of the five courses that play out of the main clubhouse. Despite originally opening in 1919, it's technically the newest now, as it was entirely rebuilt and redesigned by Tom Fazio leading up to the 1999 U.S. Open. Now with large waste bunkers, dramatic land contouring and some wide open spaces, it rivals No. 2 and No. 8 as a favorite at the resort.\nPinehurst No. 5 was the first course at Pinehurst Resort that wasn't designed by Ross. Opened in 1961, Ellis Maples, Ross' successor, built the course. In 1974, Robert Trent Jones Sr. boosted the course up to a more modern notch, which now plays 6,848 yards -- long enough to host some of the resort's top tournaments.\nThe first of the golf courses to be built beyond the main clubhouse, Pinehurst No. 6 was designed by George Fazio and his nephew Tom and opened with a new phase of real estate in 1979. The rolling land is at times more undulating than anything at No. 1 through No. 5. Tom Fazio returned in 2005 to renovate the course, which now plays 6,990 yards -- still tough enough to host area collegiate events.\nBuilt with another new phase of real estate, Rees Jones designed Pinehurst No. 7, which opened in 1986. Of the nine courses, this has the most severe property on the site and features a lot of elevated tees and greens and wetlands in lower points. Shots are played uphill as much as they are downhill, giving the course a reputation as possibly the toughest play outside of Pinehurst No. 2's U.S. Open tees.\nBuilt on the site of the former Pinehurst Gun Club, where Annie Oakley used to show off her sharpshooting, Pinehurst No. 8 is the most spacious and scenic of the nine courses, set on 450 acres with no residential development attached. Tom Fazio designed this course in 1996, and there are no parallel fairways, giving the course the most exclusive, quiet ambiance of the nine.\nPinehurst No. 9 (National Golf Club)\nJust prior to the 2014 U.S. Open, Pinehurst announced the purchase of nearby National Golf Club, a semi-private Jack Nicklaus design built in 1989. It's been officially renamed \"Pinehurst No. 9\" and is available to resort guests and Pinehurst members.",

The CPLR was adopted by the New York Legislature in 1962 and went into effect on September 1, 1963. Although amended many times since its adoption, the CPLR has remained the primary source of civil procedure rules in New York for the past 50 years.\nThis Symposium looked back and examined both the process that yielded this remarkable statute and the major innovations it brought. We took stock of the principal procedural arrangements effected by the CPLR and looked ahead to future challenges.\nSpeakers included Hon. Jack Weinstein, who was one of the principal architects of the CPLR in his role as Reporter to the Advisory Committee, Hon. Judith Kaye, Prof. William Nelson (NYU School of Law), Prof. Vincent C. Alexander (St. John\u2019s University School of Law) and David L. Ferstendig, Esq., and the program will be moderated by Prof. Oscar G. Chase (NYU School of Law).",

Like San Francisco?\nI'm not sure I support a company that promotes or even enables anti-gay rhetoric.\nAnd how do you define \"anti-gay rhetoric?\" Would simply stating that homosexuality is a disorder or that the acts involved are sins be deemed by you \"anti-gay rhetoric,\" even if there is no condemnation of persons or fomenting of violence or discrimination?\nBut see you are condemning homosexuals because you classify how they act as sinful. I don't think that's the right approach. but meh.\nLook all I'm saying is CFA should be focused on running their business instead of using it as a platform to promote their beliefs.\n\"I think we are inviting God's judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at him and say, 'We know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage... I pray God's mercy on our generation that has such a prideful, arrogant attitude to think that we have the audacity to define what marriage is about.\"\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/chick-fil-gay-marriage-201108120--finance.html\nWhen asked whether his company had an established position against marriage equality, Cathy said, \"guilty as charged.\"\nhttp://www.advocate.com/business/2012/07/17/chick-fil-coo-dan-cathy-officially-comes-out-antigay\nAlso Cathy is basically saying that \"pro-family\" doesn't involve families that are raised by gay couples, which is a ridiculous statement.\nChick-fil-a rocks!\nAnd their anti-cow/anti-beef campaign is pure hate at its very core. The audacity of some people!\nThey can go to fill in the blanks for hat I care. We should first be outraged at the cra@'y salaries they probably pay their workers. Frankly I do not have a stronger antipathy for any other sort of businessmen than for thOse parading their supposed Christianity. As if it's possible to be Christian In any meaningful sense and be a billionaire or millionaire in the first place; hopefully the revolution will take care of this sort first.\noh, a study just recently slipped through substantiating the statement.\nYou did notice that Cathy \"when asked\" answered, not dodged, the question.\nThat the gay agenda has to hide what it is up too, much like abortion promoters, should serve as a warning. \"Marriage equality\"-that's a lie. I've seen them deny that they are for polygamy, and I doubt that they are for common law marriage.\nI'm with you 100%. But you know with these types of Christians a reinterpretation of the verse in your sig, \"easier for a camel in the eye of a needle\". and all that. I once had a member from the same church Cathy belongs to explaining that the camel/needle verse is the most misinterpreted verse in the Bible and doesn't condemn at all rich people and that more money is a good thing.\nBut we will see how Cathy will buy his way into heaven with all his millions while his workers can't even live off of their own wages.\nQuote from: Gebre Menfes Kidus on July 29, 2012, 01:57:39 AM\nA friend of mine has speculated that this whole thing was a calculated move on the part of Chick-Fil-A CEO Dan Cathy to drum up more business by making Chick-fil-A seem like a persecuted martyr. He theorizes that since Chick-fil-A does not do nearly as well in liberal communities as it does in conservative areas, it was a calculated gamble to trade the loss of liberal consumers for an increased gain from conservative consumers. I'm not sure I agree with his thesis, but it's interesting. It would surely be a cynical ploy on Dan Cathy's part. And I personally think he is a better business man than to intentionally sabotage any of his consumer base. Also, even if such a strategy worked in here in the U.S., it would backfire internationally. It would be foolish to jeaopardize the proliferation of their business overseas simply to make short term gains in America. I also think Chick-fil-A has built their company on integrity, and such a cynical move would be contrary to the values and integrity upon which their company was founded. But then again, I might be very naive.\nAs for the \"LGBTQ...\" activists, their militancy and intolerance seem to always backfire. I'm a vegetarian, but I think I'm gonna have me a Chick-fil-A sanwich this week.\nI'm not sure their \"militancy and intolerance\" always backfire, what with Coors and all.\nAnd it's pretty sad and petty that you would do something just to spite gay people.\nIt isn't homosexuals people have a problem with, its stupid homosexuals that get under peoples skin. I, for instance, know several homosexuals and get along with them splendidly. The militant, agenda pushing, over the top nuts jobs, however, hate me.\nBut you know what, much like Christianity, you are free to interpret your sandwich in any way you want. Tangy barbecue (southern baptist), mayonnaise (methodist), ketchup (catholic), or even honey mustard (church of god). Or mix them all up in one horrible amalgamation.\nCan you point to a revolution that didn't \"take care\" of the hoi polloi first, and in greater numbers? More peasants, for instance, were served up on the guillotine in the French Revolution (72%, i.e. almost a full three fourths, compared to 8% aristocrats, 6% clergy and 14% bourgeoisie), than the aristocrats (who could afford to just leave).\nAnd there are plenty of of meaningful Christian millionaires, e.g.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Monaghan\nwhat is with this idea that ALL jobs, not matter what, must pay enough to live off of? Does that include the Lemonade stand the 10 year olds had that I frequented this week (imagine, capitalism in Manhattan)?\nFr. Deacon Daniel\nI respect Mr. Cathy for standing up for what he believes in and promoting Christian values. Growing up in Atlanta and having met Mr. Cathy I can testify personally that he is a kind and loving person. One of the companies I freelance for provides audio/visual equipment and technical support for their conferences. I have never worked a conference, and believe me I have worked many, that promoted and maintains the level of Christian values that Chik-fil-A does.\nHonestly, the attack on Chick-Fil-A is typical of the anti-christian agenda, which dominates our media. Here is an article from WSJ. The company really does a lot to help the less fortunate. I also like the simple fact that they are closed on Sunday's. Obviously, Southern Baptist ideology and practices are not in line with traditional Christianity but nonetheless I admire the company for at least trying to do what they believe is right.\nATLANTA\u2014Long before Chick-fil-A chief executive Dan Cathy's recent remarks regarding gay marriage, the Cathy family has been open and active supporters of Christian traditional marriage.\nThrough their WinShape Foundation, created in 1984, the owners of Chick-fil-A have donated millions to various causes, including Christian organizations dedicated to preserving traditional heterosexual marriages.\n\"They are very loving and caring people that want to serve others and help them move toward a healthy marriage,\" said Mark Pyatt, co-president of the National Institute of Marriage, a Branson, Mo.,-based Christian group that works with the WinShape Foundation, including holding monthly couples retreats at the foundation's center at Berry College, a Rome, Ga., Christian college. Chick-fil-A often refers workers, franchise owners and staff who are having problems with their marriage to the institute and other Christian groups focused on marriage.\nThe rest of the article can be read by here: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390444840104577553341868014390.html\nQuote of article truncated to enforce compliance with our forum rule against quoting full-length articles -PtA\n\"Everybody wants to change the world, but nobody thinks about changing himself.\"\nServing notice that those pushing the gay agenda (the majority of whom are not gay, btw) shall not dictate to us is not spiting them. It is rather sad and petty that someone should think we should ask \"how high\" when they say \"jump\"!\nEvidently they shall dictate to you, what with how you choose to do things based on what the gays say.\nI will admit that liberals sure do look mighty hypocritical right now saying CFA is intolerant. Yet it seems to me liberals are intolerant of the freedom of speech. I also would like some confirmation if CFA is funding anti-gay marriage groups as well.\nThere's only like 3% of adults in America who classify themselves as LGBT, why give them such a loud voice when they hardly represent a majority?\nHow have liberals showed intolerance for free speech? Was anyone demanding the CEO be put in jail over his comments, or were people just expressing disgust at what he said? If he had said \"I really wish Hitler was still around,\" would you think everyone who boycotted him was intolerant of free speech, or merely showing their disapproval of the ideals the man has? Your comment is as absurd as college newspapers that print ads for white supremacists, because the white supremacists have freedom of speech.\nI don't know what this thread is about, but I'm on Chick-Fil-A's side.\nNobody should ever eat at Chick-Fil-A; it's mediocre food at expensive prices.\nI ate there in grad school. They had an outlet in the cafeteria--perhaps it's been shut down by kiss-ins, I don't know now. But part of my job in the cafeteria was working there and in proximity to the place and after that, I didn't eat there because of cross-contamination issues. Perhaps real Chick-Fil-As not staffed by students are better run.\nYou know, the only Chik-Fil-A I've eaten at was also at a university, maybe that explains it (of course, nearly every other food establishment I've eaten at at ASU had perfectly fine food).\nQuote from: Kerdy on July 29, 2012, 03:16:30 PM\nKind of like the people who will go eat at Chik-Fil-A, when they've never before been there, just because the gays said not to...\nQuote from: Fr. Deacon Daniel on July 29, 2012, 03:48:41 PM\nnonetheless I admire the company for at least trying to do what they believe is right.\nDo you admire Hitler and Stalin and Mao as well, for trying to do what they believe is right? I see no reason to ever respect someone just because they try to do what they think is right.\nThe juxtaposition of Cathy with Hitler and white supremacists is a bit extreme. Cathy reiterated what is and has been the standard of the Judeo-Christian West for the past two millenia. He moreover stated his views positively, without expressing any vitriol toward opposing views.\nThe liberal response, on the other hand, has been over the top. Even Mayor Bloomberg, no conservative, has spoken against fellow liberal mayors for banning Chick-fil-A from their cities on the basis of an owner's personal views.\nIn my opinion, the liberals not only are showing their disapproval, but are actively seeking to punish those who disagree with them into moral submission.\n\u00ab Last Edit: July 29, 2012, 05:56:39 PM by StGeorge \u00bb\nedit to politics this goes.\nQuote from: StGeorge on July 29, 2012, 05:55:15 PM\nI think if you check you may find this has nothing to do with being Liberal or Conservative. Some of the strongest opponents of Homosexual Marriage are the predominantly Black Church's which are also very much on the side of the Democratic Party.\nThat juxtaposition is not extreme it is totally nonsensical. Anyway, I'm not interested in debating or arguing. I do pray that Chick-Fil-A continues to hold to Christian values and not fall victim to the spirit of our times.\n\u00ab Last Edit: July 29, 2012, 07:04:39 PM by Fr. Deacon Daniel \u00bb\nThank you James. I still do not know what this thread is about. I do not know who said what and what is being argued against. As far as I know there is no central and accepted voice for the LGBTQ community to justify the tenor of this thread. I am willing to learn if someone wants to start including names of who I should pay attention to. If you go back through this thread and not see a mob-like hysteria with no finger pointing to particular people and instead settling on a whole group of people, please let me know what post I missed.\nAnd yes, without additional and specific facts that are currently lacking I find this thread appalling .\nQuote from: Opus118 on July 29, 2012, 08:44:54 PM\nGreetings Opus,\nIf you would like to read an article regarding the Orthodox Christian view on homosexuality this one is pretty good. There are many others out there as well.\nThere are voluminous examples of the uproar in the media regarding Dan Cathy's comments. I am sure you can use Google or any other search engine and see for yourself. The point is, Christian values are eroding at an alarming rate in this country and anyone who is the public eye, who stands up for Christ's commandments will be attacked. Whether you call those who attack them liberal, democrat, etc. these terms miss the mark. The spirit of the times we live in is attacking Christian morality at every opportunity it can. Let us pray that the Lord blesses those who resist this spirit and follow in the footsteps of Christ's commandments no matter what denomination they belong.\nWhat I don't understand is why all the hoopla now over it. Mr Cathy has always let his beliefs known. It is no surprise, its old old news.\nWhat evidence do you have (assertion is not evidence) that CFA's employees receive crappy salaries/wages? And if they are, why are you not donating your money to supplement their income?\nBTW, I'm eating CFA right now. Mmm, mmm!\n\u00ab Last Edit: July 29, 2012, 11:22:52 PM by scamandrius \u00bb\nWe had a parishioner who was a regional manager for them. She thought she had a good job.\nHow have liberals showed intolerance for free speech? Was anyone demanding the CEO be put in jail over his comments, or were people just expressing disgust at what he said?\nNo, elected officials (mayors) have called for banning the chain from doing business in their cities and in general drive them out of business, with not so veiled threats if its CEO doesn't change and get with the program. Rahm Emmanuel can kiss my ****: my family was in Chicago for the fire and I'll be going to the Chicken-Fil-A Tuesday (Wednesday is a fast) to show \"Chicago values.\" Rahm seems to think he and Hussain and Rezko and Blago represent \"chicago values.\" One would think he'd be busy with stopping the killing going on in the city rather than preaching on the morality of fast food CEO's.\nProfanity removed -PtA\n30-day warning for profanity. This post is also being considered for an even longer warning for contributing to this thread's recent political shift. If you feel this action is wrong, please appeal it to me via private message.\nUpon further review of this thread, I note that others have been talking about the general culture war and phrasing their \"liberal vs. conservative\" dichotomy within the context of that general culture war and not in political terms. I also notice that no one else has named and criticized politicians for their political views as you have in this post. Therefore, I am extending your warning another 30 days for posting political commentary on the Public Forum. Added to the 27 days that remain on your warning for profanity, the duration of your warning for this post now stands at 57 days.\nAgain, if you feel this action unwarranted, feel free to appeal it to me via private message.\nThis is our Stonewall. This shall not stand.\nHow is this \"kind of like\" what I said?\nSo...respect no one?\nOr plain (Orthodox), because it was the first version.\nBut extra crispy.\nHetero people can marry and divorce a week later but homosexuals who have been living together for years can't marry.\nQuote from: JamesR on July 30, 2012, 02:16:55 AM\nIf only people would stand up for what they believe in without engaging in a culture war; as I've said before, war makes an abstraction out of human beings.\nAs I understand it, there have been some people who have taken issue with him for quite some time; however, he did an interview for (I believe) Baptist News, earlier this month, and other news agencies picked up on the interview and this whole situation kind of blew up.\nThis entire boycott business trend is a slippery slope when you have to add in the international nature of most large corporations doing business in the US. Many of them engage in actions which are violative of either US law or policy (i.e. setting up side companies to do business with say, Cuba or Iran or North Korea) or partnering or being supportive of governments like China or Pakistan whose law's are often the subject of international outrage - forced abortions, limits on the number of children, support of terrorism etc..etc..etc... Mr. Cathy is surely entitled to his beliefs as are we all (for the most part unless you are a Hitler or Mao or mass murderer acting on 'voices' from within - just to name a few....). Egregious examples of corporate policy being the basis of a proper and effective business boycott are probably few - the Woolworth lunch counter and southern bus examples of the 1950's and 1960's come to mind or Ghandi and salt - and the tactic should be sparingly recommended - hence it loses its ability to make an example out of something or someone. If I need to parse the personal opinions and beliefs of corporate CEO's before buying, watching, eating etc...I would never get anything done.\nA great example is the connection between NewsCorporation, the Murdochs and political conservatives here and in the UK. The entertainment division of the company panders to the lowest common demoninators in order to prosper (just check out the drivel this summer masquerading as entertainment on the Fox Network as an example) while at the same time the news division constantly extolls the conservative cause and promotes values based commentators. Hypocrisy knows no bounds when it comes to making money.\nI am not saying that making money is inherently evil or 'bad', just that you have to take stuff like this with a big grain of salt.\nJust not true unless you buy false definitions. If a Gay person is Married there are no separate requirements.\nOnly when they attempt to form a faux Marriage to each other are there extra requirements, but the whole thing is a sham to begin with.\nI have known many couples over the years where one of them is Homosexual ( most often the man). Sometimes they can work it out, sometimes not. Marriage is a rough game.\nThis entire political issue focuses only on one segment of the Homosexual community as if that is all there is. Gay people marry the opposite sex have children and lead a normal life all the time. .. None of them count. How many RCC Priests are Gay? Only one Gay culture counts it seems.\nI am increasingly puzzled by the notion that having a different opinion about something is being phobic or spiteful or oppressive.\nBtw, my 85-yr-old mother and her 90-yr-old friend plan to eat at Chick-fil-A on Wednesday. Neither one is doing it to spite anyone.\nIt would be great if there were no culture war, yet I do not see the war as something which can be ended easily. The foundational views, even on what is truth, for the opposing groups are different, and when people of one belief stand up for what they believe is true, people of another disposition often see this action as a heinous attack on (or misuse of) freedom, an impediment to (or reversal of) progress, and so actively seek to stop the other side.\nI agree that Christian values are eroding, yet I think it important to note that what is seen as Christian erosion by one side is Christian progress for the other. Many churches which are \"liberal\" see themselves as true followers of Christ's commandments. They focus much on the love and acceptance of Christ, and consider anti-homosexuality verses as coming from a less sophisticated society (which practiced slavery, the patriarchal subjugation of women, etc.) and so without application for today.\n\u00ab Last Edit: July 30, 2012, 10:41:17 AM by StGeorge \u00bb\nHere is what I think is going on. If you uphold the Judeo Christian form of Marriage and oppose it's redefinition, you are ipso facto a bigot.\nThey are trying to tie any opposition to redefining marriage to the former Civil Rights Movements in this country. The problem is that many people who fought for Civil Rights for Blacks also oppose re defining marriage. But that's the angle.\nQuote from: Marc1152 on July 29, 2012, 11:37:26 PM\nhttp://www.glassdoor.com/Hourly-Pay/Chick-fil-A-Hourly-Pay-E5873.htm\nThat's where his values are:$7. 65/h\nI didnt see Regional Supervisor on that list.

In Self-Portrait, Marti tells her story for the first time. As forthright and revealing in words as in her photographs, she tells of growing up in London orphanages, being Jewish, working in a Kensington photography studio, marrying a New Zealander and moving across the world to a challenging new country. Here she began to photograph the ordinary and the extraordinary, protests and politicians, balloons and beaches \u2013 capturing on film the transformation of New Zealand life over more than fifty years. This book is a rich meditation on one woman\u2019s photographic journey through the twentieth century.\nMarti Friedlander (born 1928) is New Zealand\u2019s leading photographer. Since immigrating to New Zealand in 1958, she has worked throughout New Zealand, the Pacific, England and Israel. Her work features in books including Moko: The Art of Maori Tattooing (with Michael King, 1972), Larks in a Paradise: New Zealand Portraits (with James McNeish, 1974) and Contemporary New Zealand Painters: Volume One, A\u2013M (with Jim and Mary Barr, 1980). Marti\u2019s photography was the subject of a retrospective at Auckland Art Gallery in 2001, which subsequently toured the country. Her work is the subject of a number of books including Marti Friedlander by Leonard Bell (2009), shortlisted for the Montana New Zealand Book Awards, and the documentary by Shirley Horrocks Marti: The Passionate Eye. She became a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit in 1998.\nDr Hugo Manson is a senior New Zealand oral historian. He was co-founder, with Judith Fyfe, of the New Zealand Oral History Archive (now the Oral History Centre at the Alexander Turnbull Library) and has specialised in recording contemporary oral history in many parts of the world.\nHardback, ISBN 978 1 86940 784 1, $59.99",

        "raw_content": "Welcome to the artist interview series where I interview talented designer makers, surface pattern designers, artists and illustrators. Today's artist, the second of the interview series is talented illustrator Carly Watts. She creates colourful and beautiful illustrations that are inspired by animals and nature.\nI'm an Illustrator and designer currently based in Sheffield. At the moment I'm focusing on my little online stores but I also offer custom illustration commissions, such as blog headers and portraits. I love illustrating nature and animals, and I'm inspired by folk & decorative art. I adore colour!\nI primarily work digitally these days which is perfect for me because I can be a little indecisive! This gives me a chance to play around with colours and textures and switch things up if they aren't working. Every single illustration starts off as a rough sketch on paper though. It took me quite a few years to get into digital illustration, I used to use watercolours regularly but I've totally fallen out of practice now!\n3. What are your favourite art materials to use?\nIf I couldn't work digitally anymore for whatever reason, I think I'd probably use gouache and ink! All of the equipment I use to make art right now is super basic. I literally draw with a mouse and don't have a fancy graphics tablet. I think this goes to show that any material is viable though, anyone can get started anytime with what they have!\n4. Do you have a favourite piece of artwork you have made?\nI actually really love the 'Fly Through Space' pattern I made recently. It's such a simple piece but the colours really appeal to me and I loved making a retro space themed piece. It sort of reminds me of something you might see at Epcot!\nI love to experiment with colour and I'm always looking for colour palette inspiration on Pinterest. I like working with deep, rich colours - blues, purples and greens. I also love using gold in my work, especially when I can add a slightly foiled effect.\nNature and the animal kingdom influence my work more than anything else. Whenever I'm stuck and unsure of what I will illustrate next, I always turn to animals to inspire me. I also love looking at vintage folk art, particularly for the vivid, unusual colour palettes.\n7. Could you show us where you work/studio space?\nUnfortunately I don't have a proper work space at all! My boyfriend and I live in a small apartment and he has claimed the only desk space! I just have to make do at the moment which is fine, sometimes you just have to make the most of what you have.\n8. What path did you take to get where you are now?\nI've definitely taken a bit of a convoluted path to get to where I am now. I studied art at college but then went on to do a drama degree! I then realised that I preferred the set design aspect of it which led to me getting interested in illustration. I've also worked in shops, and even in schools! There was no clear path for me (maybe there isn't really one for anyone!) but I just followed my instincts and hopefully I'll be able to grow my business even more next year.\nLast year I was fortunate enough to be chosen to participate in Secret 7\" which is a charity initiative. They take 7 tracks by 7 of the best know musicians in the world and then press each one 100 times to vinyl, artists from around the world then have the chance to design artwork for the sleeves which are then sold for \u00a350 each - all of the money goes to a different worthy cause each year! It was a particularly special experience for me, because the exhibition of the sleeves was situated at Somerset House!\nIt's a little bit of a cliche to say, but I've always been interested in art from a young age! When I was at college I was incredibly interested in becoming a fine artist, I just didn't think it was a particularly realistic goal at that time. It's really special to be able to create art each day now.\nIf I have any commissions on the go, I would usually start off by creating a rough sketch on paper and sending it off for approval before I start on the digital version. If I'm just working on new designs/patterns for my shops, I like to do a little research to start with. I have lots of Pinterest boards with colour palette ideas and little things that have inspired me. I will do some sketching in my pad and then scan my drawings so I can start working digitally with them. I also have to set aside some time to upload new work to my shops - a little boring but it has to be done!\nI would really love to be able to have my illustrations published in a book in 2017! I'm currently working on an entry to a Folio Society competition - the winner will have the chance to illustrate Mansfield Park so I'll see how I get on!\nExperiment with all different types of media and never stop learning and practising! Don't worry if you sometimes lose your inspiration, you will always get it back - just keep scribbling and sketching. Set up social media accounts and share your work/connect with other artists - this really helps with motivation!\n14. Is there anything else you would like to add?\nIf you really dream of becoming an artist, please don't give up! Even if you don't have a lot of time to create, just keep going with it and utilise whatever resources you have. Start out small and keep building.\nThank you so much Carly! I hope you've enjoyed this interview!\nIf you would like to follow Carly or see her work here are some links you should be sure to check out! :\nThank you so much for interviewing me, Becky! It's very much appreciated :) xxx\nMuhammad Saood 30 December 2018 at 01:14\nA free inside look at generators reviews for 455 companies. 14721 company reviews and salaries posted anonymously by my response",

        "title": "Despite Finals loss, Mystics have a lot to be optimistic about | ProSportsBox",
        "raw_content": "Despite Finals loss, Mystics have a lot to be optimistic about\nFAIRFAX, Va. -- Minutes after Washington head coach Mike Thibault walked into the Mystics locker room following Wednesday's 98-82 season-ending loss to the Seattle Storm, he was already looking forward to next season.\nChoosing not to dwell on the team's third straight loss, or make any excuses as to how it fell on the wrong end of 3-0 WNBA Finals sweep, he was already looking ahead.\n\"It's already in the past,\" Thibault said. \"We're already onto the next thing.\"\nDespite losing in their first Finals appearance in the team's 21-year history, Thibault and the Mystics know that the 9,000-plus fans who traveled 20 miles outside of Washington, D.C., and piled into Eagle Bank Arena know their team, for the first time in almost a decade, has a bright future.\nNatasha Howard won a WNBA title last season as a Minnesota reserve. Wednesday, she helped lead the way with 29 points and 14 rebounds for Seattle.\nFor Breanna Stewart, it wasn't a matter of if she'd win a WNBA title. The when was answered Wednesday as Stewart led the Storm to a Finals sweep.\n\"For those fans who have waited 20-something years, they should be excited about what they have going forward,\" Thibault said.\nThe Mystics began the season picked to finish eighth in the Associated Press preseason poll. Many question marks surrounded Washington's offseason, from who in the frontcourt could aid Elena Delle Donne to how the team would adapt without the presence of Emma Meesseman, who averaged 14 points and 5.7 rebounds but announced in January she would sit out the season to train for this month's World Cup with Belgium. They also passed on Victoria Vivians and Kia Nurse in the draft and put their faith in rookie guard Ariel Atkins.\nBut over the course of the season, many of those questions were answered, some emphatically. Two of the league's most improved players were on the Mystics' roster. Latoya Sanders, who returned from a foot injury in 2017, became a formidable defensive presence in the frontcourt, and fourth-year guard Natasha Cloud's ability to efficiently steer the offense was crucial to the team's success.\nKristi Toliver put forth her best season in recent years, earning her first All-Star appearance since 2013 alongside Delle Done. And of course, Atkins emerged as one of the best rookies in a strong 2018 draft class, showcasing her ability as both a tenacious defender and viable offensive threat behind Delle Donne and Toliver.\n\"We spent a lot of our time this year relying on a rookie player to be our third scorer,\" Thibault said of Atkins, who averaged 11.3 points in the regular season and scored 20 in Game 5 of the semifinals against Atlanta. \"What she did this year was ahead of schedule for us.\"\nAnd they still were led by the five-time All-Star Delle Donne all season long. At least until she suffered a knee injury in Game 2 of the semifinals against Atlanta. She missed Game 3, and while she returned for Games 4 and 5 and the entire WNBA Finals, she was a shell of her capability.\nWashington trailed 47-30 at halftime, its fewest in any half this postseason. The Mystics shot 29.7 percent from the floor, and Seattle's Natasha Howard, the primary defender on Delle Donne, held the former MVP to 2-of-7 shooting in the first half in one-on-one situations.\nDelle Donne made a halftime adjustment, attacking from outside the paint more instead of playing with her back to the basket. Once she found her rhythm, she got her other teammates involved. The Mystics trailed by as many as 18 in the third quarter but clawed within five on a Tierra Ruffin-Pratt 3-pointer with 6:49 left, with Delle Donne scoring or assisting on each basket during an 11-1 run.\nBut the Mystics couldn't get any closer, as Finals MVP Breanna Stewart's three-point play on the ensuing possession ignited an 8-0 Seattle run that pushed the deficit back to double digits. In the end, the Storm, who dominated the regular season, proved to be the league's best team.\n\"We know how great the teams are and how much better we have to be,\" said Delle Donne, who finished with 23 points. \"We're not just going to be satisfied that we got here this season -- we've got to improve because everyone else is.\"\nThe Mystics have every reason to be optimistic for next season, and that's beyond the fact they'll have a new home at the St. Elizabeths East Entertainment and Sports Arena in Southeast D.C. Atkins will begin the season with a year of experience under her belt. Meesseman will return to the Mystics' roster, deepening an already formidable bench. And Delle Donne (fingers crossed) will return healthy and should make another run at league MVP.\n\"It was a successful [season],\" Toliver said. \"This team made a lot of great strides from last year to this year. We showed a lot of character, a lot of resiliency. ... Everyone else in the league wishes they were playing tonight, so we are very aware of that.\"\nDelle Donne's on-court chemistry with Toliver, their second season together as teammates since Toliver signed as a free agent in 2017, also grew. Even in defeat, their budding connection was on full display.\n\"Last year, we were brand new,\" Delle Donne said. \"I didn't even know [Toliver's] favorite beer. Now I can go to the bar and order everything she needs.\"\n\"I'm going to need a lot tonight,\" Toliver replied.\nAnd then Delle Donne turned her head to her right and responded, \"Trust me. I got you, Panda.\"",

        "raw_content": "Trout\u2019s Fly Fishing is Pleased to Welcome Cabela\u2019s to the Denver Front Range Community\nCabela's is new to Colorado and while is may worry some local fly fishing outfitters, Denver-based Trout's Fly Fishing chooses to look at this news as welcomed competition.\nThe recent announcement that Cabela\u2019s would enter the Colorado Front Range market (see Denver Post: http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_20492344/plans-2-cabelas-stores-show-retailer-hooked-denver) has been creating significant amounts of worrisome debate amongst local fly-fishing retailers and outfitters. Anglers, however, seem to feel the entrance of Cabela\u2019s will create more choice for them, and that freedom means happier fishermen and fisherwomen. At least one established local retailer thinks that is a very good thing.\n\u201cWhile many in our industry and sporting community may see this as a threat to the local retail base, Trout\u2019s Fly Fishing sees this as a great opportunity to grow our sport\u201d said Trout\u2019s Fly Fishing owner Tucker Ladd. \u201cI for one welcome Cabela\u2019s into the Denver angling community, and look forward to their support in the continued effort to expand what I think is the finest outdoor activity imaginable. We have seen this brand have positive effects in other markets, and we trust that they will bring legitimacy and recognition to the abundance of angling opportunities in Denver and the greater Colorado region.\u201d\nWith 2 stores slated to open in 2013 in the Denver area, it is a given that Cabela\u2019s will have a noticeable presence to businesses and consumers alike. \u201cIt is up to each individual business to decide how to react in situations like these, and I can understand how some may be fearful of what this brand will do to the local fly shop base\u201d adds Ladd. \u201cYet this is not the first time Cabela\u2019s has looked at the Denver area for a new storefront, and we have been actively planning for this inevitable event for years now. We feel we have a strong brand presence in Colorado, and I am comfortable that the level of expertise, quality customer service and amazing product selection we offer will only further our goal of being the premier fly-fishing resource in the area. Trout\u2019s is a Denver and Colorado brand through and through, and we trust that this change will only make us stronger and more relevant to the local fly fishing consumer.\u201d\nABOUT TROUT\u2019S FLY FISHING\nLocated in a rehabilitated 50 year-old house on the corner of 6th Avenue and Marion Street in Denver, Trout\u2019s Fly Fishing has been the Colorado fly angler\u2019s second home for over a decade. Trout\u2019s the finest in fly-angling equipment, accessories, and apparel, and houses the largest selection of flies on the Denver Front Range. Trout\u2019s staff has a combined 75 years of fishing experience, and they\u2019ve fly-fished across the United States and abroad \u2013 clients get the utmost combination of knowledge and friendly service at Trout\u2019s Fly Fishing.\nCabela\u2019s is a leading specialty retailer, and the world's largest direct marketer, of hunting, fishing, camping and related outdoor merchandise.

        "raw_content": "Waterloo school officials bracing for more cuts\nBy Robyn Dexter on August 21, 2013 at 9:28 am\nWaterloo School Superintendent Jim Helton presented a bleak review of school district finances during Monday\u2019s meeting of the Waterloo School Board.\nHe said the issues were not so much with expenditures, but with revenues.\n\u201cOur local equalized assessed values this year have decreased by 3.9 percent,\u201d he said. \u201cThat revenue locally is at the 2007 level.\u201d\nOther revenue issues he told the board about included an 11 percent decrease in general state aid and a deficit reduction plan.\nThe committee has been working on the deficit reduction plan, which will include one payment from the past year and three payments from the current year.\n\u201cI\u2019m a little fearful, because we may only get two payments from the current year,\u201d he said. \u201cBut we have to have a system in place.\u201d\nIn the plan, Helton outlined a $552,000 decrease in educational revenues because of a shift in personnel, retirements and not replacing paraprofessionals.\nHowever, under the transportation category, the projected fund will see its first deficit since 2006 because of a $76,000 increase in expenditures.\n\u201cWe had to add an additional bus, which was our fear,\u201d Helton said.\nThe projected budget for the 2014 fiscal year is $5,093,385.\n\u201cWe are very close to having to do a deficit reduction plan,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re close to our projected budget being less than three times our deficit.\u201d\nIf the budget reaches that point, the plan will have to be put in place, and this year\u2019s working cash will be tight be- cause of the revenue deficit.\nHelton said the projected budget is still very much a working document based on the revenues the district is expecting to receive, but expenditures are nearly set in stone.\n\u201cOur hope in FY \u201915 is that we\u2019re back to where we are in FY \u201913,\u201d he said. \u201cWe need strategic planning and strategic action.\u201d\nAlso during the meeting, the school board reviewed a pro- posed dissolution of the \u201cmiddle school concept\u201d at Waterloo Junior High School and a return to traditional junior high school scheduling during its Monday meeting.\nHelton said all the planning that will go into the process of eliminating the middle school concept should involve junior high school administration and staff.\nHaving a hybrid of the two concepts that would meet the district\u2019s needs would be ideal, he told the board.\n\u201cThis is all preliminary work,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen you talk about eliminating a program that has been very effective within the teaching and learning component of it, it\u2019s tough.\u201d\nHelton stressed \u201cholding off until we have to (eliminate the program),\u201d but at the point the district is at, there is not much of a choice.\nThe board will review the budget again next month.\nBoard members also approved the employment of a full-time special education teacher (Jamie Smallwood), elementary teachers (Timothy Augustine and Emily Grohmann) and an agriculture teacher (Heidi Clark) for the 2013-14 school year, which kicked off this morning.",

        "title": "White powder Gold used by secret societies as medicine--now and then - R.A.U",
        "raw_content": "Conspiracy theory Science Technology White powder Gold used by secret societies as medicine--now and then\nWhite powder Gold used by secret societies as medicine--now and then\nby Saurabh Bohora on Saturday, November 23, 2013 in Conspiracy theory, Science, Technology\nWhite Powdered Gold--[Archieved from bibliotecapleyades]\nThe final word will be on a modern-day deception - white powdered gold. Whether wittingly or unwittingly, this substance is being prostrated before the world as if it were some kind of wonderful new snake oil. What\u2019s it all about and why is it so popular?\nA book by Laurence Gardner, titled Lost Secrets of the Sacred Ark, attempts to prove that the ancients transformed gold into a white powder, which they used to help items levitate and to transport themselves through interdimensional portals. It is also proposed that the substance was taken orally as a kind of Elixir. The book has sold hundreds of thousands of copies and claims backing from certain scientists.\nBecause of the release of my books The Serpent Grail and Gnosis: The Secret of Solomon\u2019s Temple Revealed, I have been getting hundreds of e-mails from people asking my opinion on these discoveries by Gardner et al, and so I decided to investigate a little further.\nI have read most of Gardner\u2019s books and always found them very entertaining. Laurence is a nice man and I have absolutely no issues with him personally. However, my aim in all things is to get to the truth, and I am constantly pressed by e-mails, letters, and calls to get to the bottom of this white powdered gold issue, and so I simply had to push my questions out there.\nThe fact remains that Gardner and others now claim that white powdered gold was secretly used by the Freemasons and other secret societies, so it comes under the remit of a book about secret societies. Just what is the truth?\nThe word ORMUS is today used extensively by the exponents of this substance and is derived from Orbitally Rearranged Monatomic Elements or ORMEs.\nIt was supposedly discovered in the late 1970s by David Hudson, a farmer from Arizona, who noticed some strange materials on his land while he was mining for gold. Apparently Hudson then spent millions trying to understand the substance and has since created ORMUS from gold, water, and even \u201cmanna.\u201d\nThe claim is that ORMUS is a new form of matter that \u201cappears to have the properties of Spirit.\u201d\nThey claim that the substance transits between the material plain and the spiritual plain and can thereby be used as a communication device to the Otherworld. There is, however no science at all to back these claims - just thousands upon thousands of assumptions.\nThe word Ormus in fact was originally another name for the Zoroastrian deity Ahura Mazda (Ormazd), and seeped into the Christian world in the 4th century via the Armenians, who converted to Christianity and who previously worshipped Armazd (Ormus). Ormus also became the name of one of the most important ports in the Middle East in the 16th and 17th centuries in the Persian Gulf at the Straits of Hormuz (Ormus).\nFrom here huge quantities of certain products were shipped across the entire area, as we shall see, and which reveal the truth of the original white gold! The city-state of Ormus can in fact be dated back to at least the 13th century and was extensively used for the slave trade in later years. Due to the strategically important location of the Straits of Hormuz, it has been fought over for centuries.\nThe strict etymology of the word is divided. Most scholars claim that Ormus/Ormuz is derived from the Persian word Hur-mogh, meaning simply \u201cdate-palm.\u201d Others claim that orme is the ancient word for worm or serpent (which I found in my other work to be no different to the fire of thought - illumination).\nIn fact, the date-palm and the serpent share symbolic similarities.\nThe palm itself is symbolic of several important myths. Firstly, it was the sign of the \u201cFlaming Column\u201d found on the coinage of Carthage. The palm also stood for fire and the Tree of Life. The leaves were never changing, and in this they signified the unchangeable Lord. The Phoenicians also held the palm in high esteem, and their coinage displayed the serpent coiled around its trunk - the fire of the tree (spine - see entries on the kundalini earlier in the book).\nThe name of the deity \u201cBaal Tamar\u201d meant \u201cLord of the Palm,\u201d and \u201cTamar\u201d means \u201cresplendent Sun Fire.\u201d\nSo we simply have a circular argument here. Let me explain. Ahura Mazda was a fire god or shining illumination of the Persian Zoroastrians that have been implicated by many Gnostic scholars as progenitors of much Gnostic thought, and were extreme mystics in outlook. Ahura Mazda is therefore the same as the palm and is indeed imaged by the palm.\nThe name itself means simply \u201cLord of Wisdom,\u201d and mazda is in fact a feminine noun, which reveals a hidden Gnosis behind the name.\nWise One, I realize you to be powerful and progressive because You help with Your own hand. You give rewards to both the wrongful and the righteous, by means of the warmth of your Fire, which is mighty through Righteousness and through which the strength of Good Mind comes to me.\n(Gathas: Song 8:4)\nYou see, true Gnosis or knowledge or indeed wisdom (the \u201cgood mind\u201d above) can only be gained through balance, and this was often imaged in ancient times as balance between the sexes.\nThe world saw this feminine principle in the myths of Sophia, the female element of wisdom and from where we derive \u201cphilosophy.\u201d In fact, what Zoroaster was saying here was that true wisdom lies in the balanced state, and this balance was imaged by the world axis or tree - perfectly upright and running between the opposites (\u201cwrongful and the righteous\u201d).\nThe palm as a symbol of fire and Ormus (Ahura Mazda) as the deity of wisdom and fire was simply \u201cilluminated\u201d or \u201cenlightened.\u201d It was the image of perfection. And so, what we end up with is the etymology and the actual hidden Gnosis in the name, giving us the real truth behind the name our modern pseudo-scientists have given to a particular substance.\nNowhere in this wonderful ancient philosophy do we find a peculiar substance that enables other-dimensional travel.\nThe scientist often used by Laurence Gardner and others in their work is Dr. Hal Puthoff, director for advanced studies in Austin, who was quoted by Gardner as backing his theories.\nHere\u2019s what is supposedly said by Puthoff:\n\u201cSince gravity determines space-time, Puthoff concluded that the powder was \u2018exotic matter\u2019 and was capable of bending space-time.\u201d\nAs Puthoff is so often used as backing the substance, I decided to ask!\nI actually discovered to my surprise that Dr. Puthoff was not at all happy, and is a little perturbed at having to keep answering questions regarding the matter, especially as he never backed the theory in the first place.\nHowever, I convinced Hal to give me a quote:\nThe Story is this. Early on (several years ago) someone brought Dave Hudson [who helped Gardner write his book] by and he told me about anomalous effects concerning his white powder.\nOne of his claims was that under certain conditions the mass decreased, i.e., an antigravity effect showed up. In response, I said that, from a physicist\u2019s viewpoint, IF that were true, then there would have been a spacetime effect. (This is probably the source of the oft-stated quote attributed to me \u201cThe powder bends the spacetime metric.\u201d)\nOf course, I said no such thing about the powder because I do not know whether the statement about the powder is true. I offered that if he provided me a sample of the powder, I would check it out. He said he would. He never did. I never heard anything from him after that visit. But I hear a lot about the attributed quote from my colleagues, which I keep correcting!\nHal Puthoff,\nPh.D. Director, Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin\nAs can be seen by this quote, Dr. Puthoff never backed the theory, and even wanted to help to see if there were any truth behind the claims by testing the substance claimed by Gardner to be derived from gold. I was told by Edmund Marriage of the Patrick Institute, who helped Gardner on the book, that it was tested by Oxford University and no gold was found.\nDr. Sarfatti of the Global Advanced Intelligence Agency (a mock and comical title) also said that,\n\u201cI think this is a false allegation\u2026.I know Hal very well and this is an obvious distortion, if not a bald lie.\u201d\nPuthoff also said,\n\u201cI have absolutely no idea what David Hudson\u2019s white powder does. Don\u2019t know where this quote comes from, which keeps showing up in the Internet, presumably from David Hudson. I am totally skeptical.\u201d\nI have had all manner of claims given to me via e-mail, and none of them have any scientific basis.\nSome have claimed that ingesting the substance took them on journeys to other dimensions or even made them float.\nI have always asked if the individual knew what was in the substance and from where it was bought. In each case, nobody has a clue what was actually in the powder.\nHas anybody seen any credible objective scientific evidence for the claims made by Gardner et al? Has anybody actually levitated anything with this substance? Or even passed an article into another dimension?\nI ran these questions on my Website and on various other forums. Not once did I get back any scientific answers.\nI did have hundreds of e-mails arguing the matter from an historical point of view, that shewbread or showbread of the ancient Israelites was white powdered gold or monatomic substance, but no science. In fact when I proposed the question to my good friend and author, Crichton Miller, he answered simply: \u201cit\u2019s salt.\u201d\nYou see, let\u2019s just try and understand our ancestors from a position that most modern alternative historians seem to forget - survival.\nAncient man, just as we are today, was interested in his own survival.\nThere is little difference between us and our ancestors. We too follow the same evolutionary drive to survive. Look at it this way: We hoard goods because in our subconscious we need to ensure that we have sufficient reserves to see us through the winter or a poor harvest. This is something we have learned over the millennia, which could be said to be at the root of greed.\nHowever, one of the things our ancestors needed as an addition to their diet was salt, and so in essence salt became one of the most valued things. It was hoarded and it was sanctified.\nMost people think of salt as simply the white granules they shake over their dinners, but it is much more. It is an essential element of the diet, not just for humans but for animals too, and even many plants. Our ancient hunter-gatherer ancestors simply had to take in salt daily to stay alive in order to balance his water intake, and incredibly to him, it was from the sea that salt would seem to come, so the very etymology implies \u201cfrom the sea.\u201d\nWith the coming of agricultural times, man took on roughly 150 grams per day of salt, and also used it extensively for tanning hides and preserving foodstuffs.\nIn fact, it was even used to preserve bodies after death and was used by the ancient Egyptians and others in mummification. This preservation quality has come down to us today in symbolic form as an Elixir - extending life in the Otherworld.\nBecause of the incredible need and desire for salt, it became one of the most valuable substances in the world, and was sought far and wide. Great trading routes erupted, transporting it across land and sea, and even battles were fought over the control of these trade routes. One place that rose to a meteoric position of power was the port of Ormus that I have already mentioned, and we even find that salt was traded for slaves.\nThe worth of salt has even crept into our language:\n\u201cSalt of the earth\u201d is used to describe somebody of great value with down-to-earth attitudes; \u201cTaken with a grain of salt\u201d to describe something of no worth (only one grain!).\nIn fact, salt actually became money in a great many places, and even gave us our word \u201csalary.\u201d\nThe art of high etiquette in places such as Serbia was to offer visitors a piece of bread and some salt - a very valuable gift indeed. And this isn\u2019t something new - it is as old as mankind, and animals were seeking out salt long before homo erectus stood up. About 4,700 years ago the Peng Tzao Kan Mu was written in China, and copies of it are still in existence.\nThis book deals with pharmacology and explains the worth of salt, with more than 40 kinds being used in all manner of ways. In Egypt, there is evidence of salt-making and mining from 1450 B.C., and similar evidence can be found the world over, including the Bible, where there are over 30 references to it.\nLet your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt\u2026\nThis alone reveals that salt was here being used as a reference to a work upon the \u201cself,\u201d to purify our thoughts and words.\nSalt became a symbol for purity and was used on altars - becoming \u201choly salt.\u201d In this way, the \u201cshowbread\u201d of Laurence Gardner is really just partly salt! This makes much more sense as manna bread and as a survival tool in the wilderness.\nSo just what is this showbread? Well, in Exodus 25:23\u201330 we are told to make a specific table or altar whereupon can be laid the bread made from fine flour. The exponents of white powdered gold claim that this fine flour was in fact fine powder - hence white powdered gold.\nThe bread was called shew or show bread simply because it was on show. The method of making the bread is, in fact, not a chemical activity as we are lead to believe; it is instead a way of self-improvement - an esoteric psychology. We are to take fine flour, bake it, and it is to be unleavened. We are to make 12 cakes and place them in two rows of six on the pure table.\nThis could be seen as one of the very original alchemical treatises, for the fine flour was \u201cfrom the earth,\u201d the base substance or anima mundi - our base self. Then we are to bake or put in the furnace - this is simply to rigorously check ourselves and burn off all impurities, which is demanded with the \u201cunleavened\u201d element, which means nothing artificial must be placed in the bread.\nThe 12 cakes or pieces of bread are the whole extent of the sky - the Zodiac - through which the opposites work, the sun and moon, and is representative of our whole life, always in balance. Placing them in two rows of six indicates the six-month growing cycle for grain to turn into bread.\nThe loaves themselves also indicate the tribes of Israel because \u201cgrain\u201d was equated with mankind and the tribes were made up of many grains like a loaf.\nThe fire or illumination can only come through understanding this balance within ourselves and gaining knowledge and wisdom. For sure there are many biochemical reactions within the mind, such as the Indian kundalini and the Hebrew spirit of God, often brought on by drugs or meditation, but there is often a merging of this symbolism.\nThis fire or internal energy was known the world over by the name of the serpent. The reality we see here before us is also that of ordinary psychology and self-improvement.\nPreviously, we saw that orme (the root of Ormus) meant worm (little serpent) or serpent, and the serpent has been associated with salt for thousands of years. Bacchic ceremonies in Greece were consecrated with the serpent, and in the procession, a troop of virgins from noble stock would carry the reptile in golden baskets with salt and bread.\nThis is seen in many of the rituals of the early Ophite Gnostic Christians, where ophite means serpent worshipper. These Ophites would actually consecrate their bread and wine with the kiss of the serpent and a sprinkle of salt.\nEven in Jewish tradition we are told,\n\u201cThe bread of the serpent is dust\u201d (Yeshayahu 65:25),\n...and it was in the \u201cdust\u201d that the serpent was made to creep.\nIn Babylon, the goddess of the specific salt water was Tiamat, the dragon or serpent mother, and in alchemy salt is represented by the image of a serpent.\nOf course we must also remember that on the very real practical level, salt was a major ingredient in bread, and as is true in much of the world, salt was often given as a gift with bread.\nIf there is truth to the claims made for this white powdered gold, then surely more research should be done by top scientists, as the claims made for it are scientifically outstanding if not outlandish.\nWhen I uncovered the ancient practice of ingesting snake venom and blood (not to be tried at home please) I went to several scientific establishments and sought the advice of medical institutions. I do not propose anybody takes venom and blood, as the mixtures are quite unique and hidden in secretive ways, but people are taking this white powdered gold (if that is truly what it is) and are claiming to have either hallucination experiences or actually entering altered states of consciousness as a result.\nAnd so, to this end, I ordered a bottle of fluid said to contain the monatomic substance. After a week the bottle arrived, and, keeping it in its container, I quickly took it down to a friend I have at a local university. Running the substance through his various pieces of machinery, he found no gold and no salt. In fact, all he found was water and some trace elements of iron.\nThis small plastic bottle of water cost more than $30. Makes Perrier look cheap.\nIf we are to propose our theories in public and to claim scientific support for them, then we have to be able to back up those claims. At present, apart from some experiential and convoluted history-making, we have no hard verifiable evidence that monatomic substance or white powdered gold exists, nor especially that ancient man developed it or used it.\nWhat the evidence does reveal is that salt was the real money or white gold of its day, and that this mineral found its way into our food (bread) and religion as a gift of God or the gods. The symbolism of this and the internal psychological tools of theology and philosophy merged together via the image of the serpent, and the resultant etymology serves as a testament to this.\nThe fire of the serpent and the need for salt are holistic symbols.\nBut one final enlightening thought was brought to me by my practically minded father-in-law - Alan Dickson. The proponents of \u201cwhite powdered gold\u201d claim that it made things levitate and go to great lengths to show how this can be found in ancient symbolism.\nNow that we know what true white gold is, we would do well to remember that salt water makes solid objects float, and that the Ark, which Laurence Gardner claims was levitated by this white powder, was in fact a copy of an Egyptian b\u2019arque - a boat. Regardless of how arrogant we are about our ancestors we have to give them credit for such beautifully intricate mysteries.\nSo we know that white powdered gold is salt. We know that the whole thing is a farce of the highest order.\nWhy then is it being presented before us as if it were the best thing since sliced bread? I would at this point also draw in the concept that the proponents of this \u201csubstance\u201d are also the same people who feed us the concepts of the Royal Bloodline from Jesus and Mary - another myth.\nI do not intend to answer this conundrum because there is a depth here that is ultimately dangerous, so I will leave the reader this final code to break.\nBy Saurabh Bohora at Saturday, November 23, 2013",

        "raw_content": "[Preamble: in 1930, Keynes wrote an essay on gold titled \u201cAuri Sacra Fames\u201d. The phrase loosely translates as \u201cthe accursed greed for gold\u201d, and derives from the idea that money is the root of all evil. I read it earlier this week, and I wanted to share some of it. Whatever you feel about Keynes, the man could write beautifully.]\nThe History of Gold, and the end of commodity currency\nSome four or five thousand years ago the civilised world settled down to the use of gold, silver, and copper for pounds, shillings, and pence, but with silver in the first place of importance and copper in the second. The Mycenaeans put gold in the first place. Next, under Celtic or Dorian influences, came a brief invasion of iron in place of copper over Europe and the northern shores of the Mediterranean. With the Achaemenid Persian Empire, which maintained a bimetallic standard of gold and silver at a fixed ratio (until Alexander overturned them), the world settled down again to gold, silver, and copper, with silver once more of predominant importance; and there followed silver\u2019s long hegemony (except for a certain revival of the influence of gold in Roman Constantinople), chequered by imperfectly successful attempts at gold-and-silver bimetallism, especially in the eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth, and only concluded by the final victory of gold during the fifty years before the war.\nDr. Freud relates that there are peculiar reasons deep in our subconsciousness why gold in particular should satisfy strong instincts and serve as a symbol. The magical properties, with which Egyptian priestcraft anciently imbued the yellow metal, it has never altogether lost. Yet, whilst gold as a store of value has always had devoted patrons, it is, as the sole standard of purchasing power, almost a parvenu. In 1914 gold had held this position in Great Britain de jure over less than a hundred years (though de facto for more than two hundred), and in most other countries over less than sixty. For except during rather brief intervals gold has been too scarce to serve the needs of the world\u2019s principal medium of currency. Gold is, and always has been, an extraordinarily scarce commodity. A modern liner could convey across the Atlantic in a single voyage all the gold which has been dredged or mined in seven thousand years. At intervals of five hundred or a thousand years a new source of supply has been discovered\u2014the latter half of the nineteenth century was one of these epochs\u2014and a temporary abundance has ensued. But as a rule, generally speaking, there has been not enough.\nOne great change, nevertheless\u2014probably, in the end, a fatal change\u2014has been effected by our generation. During the war individuals threw their little stocks into the national melting-pots. Wars have sometimes served to disperse gold, as when Alexander scattered the temple hoards of Persia or Pizarro those of the Incas. But on this occasion war concentrated gold in the vaults of the Central Banks; and these Banks have not released it. Thus, almost throughout the world, gold has been withdrawn from circulation. It no longer passes from hand to hand, and the touch of the metal has been taken away from men\u2019s greedy palms. The little household gods, who dwelt in purses and stockings and tin boxes, have been swallowed ed by a single golden image in each country, which lives underground and is not seen. Gold is out of sight\u2014gone back again into the soil. But when gods are no longer seen in a yellow panoply walking the earth, we begin to rationalise them; and it is not long before there is nothing left.\nThus the long age of Commodity Money has at last passed finally away before the age of Representative Money. Gold has ceased to be a coin, a hoard, a tangible claim to wealth, of which the value cannot slip away so long as the hand of the individual clutches the material stuff. It has become a much more abstract thing\u2014just a standard of value; and it only keeps this nominal status by being handed round from time to time in quite small quantities amongst a group of Central Banks, on the occasions when one of them has been inflating or deflating its managed representative money in a different degree from what is appropriate to the behaviour of its neighbours. Even the handing round is becoming a little old-fashioned, being the occasion of unnecessary travelling expenses, and the most modern way, called \u201cear-marking,\u201d is to change the ownership without shifting the location. It is not a far step from this to the beginning of arrangements between Central Banks by which, without ever formally renouncing the rule of gold, the quantity of metal actually buried in their vaults may come to stand, by a modern alchemy, for what they please, and its value for what they choose. Thus gold, originally stationed in heaven with his consort silver, as Sun and Moon, having first doffed his sacred attributes and come to earth as an autocrat, may next descend to the sober status of a constitutional king with a cabinet of Banks; and it may never be necessary to proclaim a Republic.",

        "raw_content": "MIYA, Mondli and MGUTSHINI, Tennyson. Female perspectives of male partners' inclusion in the prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission programme in KwaZulu-Natal. Curationis [online]. 2016, vol.39, n.1, pp.1-7. ISSN 2223-6279. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/curationis.v39i1.1691.\nBACKGROUND: The South African government intervened by implementing the prevention of mother-to-child transmission programme (PMTCT) to curb the HIV transmission from mother to child during and after pregnancy. The PMTCT programme has been at the forefront of global prevention efforts since 1998. Without treatment, the risk of transmission ranges from one in five to one in two newborns; however, the risk of mother-to-child transmission can be reduced to as low as 2%-5% with evidenced interventions. Sub-Saharan Africa, and most particularly South Africa, is the most affected by the pandemic despite having the largest financial investment in PMTCT services across the continent. OBJECTIVES: The objectives of the study were to describe and explore the female perspectives of male inclusion in the prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission programme in KwaZulu-Natal. METHODOLOGY: A qualitative, descriptive, explorative study was conducted through in-depth individual interview of pregnant women until data saturation. RESULTS: The findings of the study revealed that the existing design of public hospitals was not wholly conducive to facilitating male inclusion in maternal and child health services. Resources were largely insufficient to support the participation of pregnant mothers and any attempts to support the inclusion of males needed to be based on a clear increase in service provision. CONCLUSION: The study recommended male partners' inclusion in the prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission to support effective management of HIV in pregnancy and PMTCT programmes. The inclusion of men will provide the holistic support needed by pregnant women on PMTCT programmes.",

As a pet owner, it is important for you to know and understand the various ways through which you can protect your pets from the pests. Here\u2019s an ideal guide to help you in the selection of the best medication to eliminate fleas and ticks from the pet.\nThe first thing you need to look into is the usage or mode or medication as there are different types whereby some are applied, some are ingested and others are sprayed. It is crucial for you to get the fact right that some of the medications are slower in working while others are stronger in use as opposed to others. For this reason, you need to research and make a very intelligent and informed decision on the best form for your pets, mainly considering preference. As a pet owner, you need to know and understand that there are different flea and tick species whereby some have longer lives and cause effects on your pet massively. This calls for the assistance from a vet within the area so that you can know what pests you are likely to be dealing with.\nTo avoid confusion and wrong dosages, it is crucial for you to have it right and clear whether the medication in question is ideal for cats, dogs or both before you make the purchase. It is crucial for you to know the effectiveness and workability of the medication to the pets before you make any purchasing decision. Depending on the pets that you have, it is important for you to choose the most effective for your specific breed of pets and animals.\nIt is crucial for you to know and understand that the preferences really matter in a large way, both for you and the pet in question. Since you have had the pet for a great deal of time, you can amicably tell what excites the pet; the pills, the sprays or the shampoos. With this, you get to pick the most ideal medication that goes in line with your situation and preference.\nReading the labels on the containers will go a long way in ensuring that you pick the best one for your pet.

The titles in question are Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble, Shinobi and Dragon Crystal. Dragon Crystal is priced at \u00a32.70, Shinobi at \u00a33.60 and Sonic at \u00a34.50. The full press release now follows:\n\u201cWe are pleased to announce that three original Game Gear games are making a welcome return to handheld gaming. Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble, Shinobi and Dragon Crystal are all now available on the 3DS eshop worldwide giving you the chance to overcome past adversities.\nSonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble was originally released in November 1994, as a sequel to Sonic Chaos. The platform-oriented game gives players the choice of playing as Sonic or Tails. Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble introduces players to Nack the Weasel for the first time.\nSonic and Tails are tasked with retrieving the Chaos Emeralds which have been scattered across planet Mobius during an experiment, by Dr. Robotnik and his team testing the \u2018Atomic Destroyer\u2019 which goes wrong. In the meantime Dr. Robotnik runs into Knuckles and convinces him Sonic and Tails are out to steal the emeralds. Nack the Weasel takes advantage of the confusion to collect the emeralds for himself.\nShinobi, known in Japan as The G.G. Shinobi, was developed and published by SEGA exclusively for the SEGA Game Gear. It was released in 1991 as part of the Shinobi series of games. The music in the game was composed by Y\u016bz\u014d Koshiro.\nAs Joe Musashi, student of the \u2018The Master of Oboro\u2019, you are sent to Ninja Valley which has been submerged by an air of terror and destruction as a dark force has established a base within Neo City. You must use the art of Ninjutsu to free your fellow shinobi, and continue your adventure by mastering their skills.\nDragon Crystal is an RPG which was originally released on the SEGA Master System and ported to the Game Gear in 1991 making it one the Game Gear\u2019s earliest Role Playing Games.\nIn Dragon Crystal, you must navigate your way through 30 randomly generated, dangerous labyrinths, collecting weapons, armour, magic books along the way. Gameplay combat is turn-based, players positioning during battles is paramount to their success.\u201d\n[Source: SEGA]\nTags: 3ds, eshop, game gear, shinobi, sonic the hedgehog: triple trouble\nPosted in News | Comments Off on 3 Game Gear Titles Now Available on the 3DS eShop",

        "raw_content": "The reality, though, is that done right, the probate process for a house in Chicago can be as simple as four easy steps. The flip side is that both the dread and simplicity often open people up to certain probate scams. Let\u2019s take a look.\nProbate Process for a House in Chicago\nAnd that\u2019s it for the probate process for a house in Chicago and for the entire estate as well. Just be wary about any scams that may pop up along the way.\nFraudulent Listings Scam \u2013 This one owes its effectiveness to the popularity of sites like Craigslist for home shoppers, especially renters, and applies particularly to the probate process for a house in Chicago. Scammers research the property of recently deceased individuals and advertise it for rent. Then, when the scammers collect the deposit and first month\u2019s rent, they disappear, leaving the people engaged in probate to deal with the upset victim.\nIf you\u2019re facing probate, especially the probate process for a house in Chicago, it\u2019s probably not as ominous and frightening as it first seems. Knowing what it involves and being aware of the common probate scams are good first steps \u2013 but there\u2019s more to consider.\nIf you\u2019d like to learn more about probate and how to get through it smoothly, contact us by phone at (630) 984-0000 or fill our simple form.",

He\u2019s curled in a ball in his little bed. He only half-raises his head. Weaker than just a day ago. His nose is dry, hot. Sharp in my chest when I try to draw a deep breath. It hits me. The foolishness that I could even try to outrace both our maladies. That they won\u2019t catch up with us before we reach the county line. That Joey would die in even more pain. That I will experience even more myself of the burning grind of my bone on bone hip.\nShe likes to say that she slept through the last 13 years of her life, and indeed, much of it is a blur: Abusive relationship. His-and-her arrests for domestic violence. Meth habit. A period of quasi-homelessness. A 37-day stint in jail for petty theft. She\u2019s newly sober. She\u2019s off cash assistance. She\u2019s got a job temping and a place to call her own. She wants to work in construction. But the construction field is a hard one to crack, particularly if you\u2019re female. Women comprise less than 3 percent of the trade workforce, roughly the same portion as 30 years ago.\nOver 500,000 women served our country in the military during the Vietnam era, Korean War and World War II. The wartime female veterans of the pre-AVF era have a median age of 69 and the majority (73.9 percent) served in the Vietnam era. About 30 percent have completed a bachelor's degree or higher.\nPi Days of Yore: Activity Suggestions Submitted by Teachers, Students & Everyday People\nSome examples: (1)We play pi shuffleboard. I draw 3 big circles on the floor, inside of each other and the kids use rolls of masking tape as pucks. They toss and/or slide circles of tape [identifying marks on side] to see who gets closest to center. Players each have 3 circles of tape that they slide to remove others from center. The winner then challenges the next 3 players until we declare Pi shuffleboard winner.(2)For our Pi Day, my school asked all the faculty members if they would be interested in being \u201cpi\u2019d\u201d and their name was put on a plastic jug. Students would place money in their jug throughout the week and the teacher/faculty member with the most money got pi\u2019d at an all school assembly. We raised a total of about $400! We donated all the proceeds to multiple charities.\nWomen in Geosciences: Ursula Marvin, a Pioneering Geologist Involved in the Study of Extraterrestrial Materials\nIn 1997, Marvin noted that much has improved for women in science since she began her long and fruitful career. Although most people in Harvard's Geology Department were very helpful, she remembers that women's access to Widener Library was restricted. Also, she was often told to leave the geology building by a watchman who insisted women were not allowed to be there alone at night. Still, Marvin said she was mainly unaffected by the discrimination \u2014 with the obvious exception of the Harvard Geology Club. Even the professor who would not let her switch majors at Tufts eventually came around. \"Years later, he invited me to teach at Tufts, and often told others how proud he was of me,\" said Marvin.\nCasanova was considered by his own contemporaries to be a witty conversationalist, autobiographer, gambler, spy, and one of the greatest travelers of all time. More than 80 works of art, including paintings, sculptures, works on paper, period furnishings, delicate porcelains, and lavish period costumes, re-create this luxurious and sparkling world of masked balls, palaces, theaters, and operas.\nMy New Roommates, Alexa and Google Home\nRose Madeline Mula writes: After living alone for over thirty years, I recently acquired two new roommates. The adjustment is proving to be very interesting \u2014 not only regarding my relationships with them, but also theirs with each other. Their names are Alexa and Google Home, and they reside in opposite ends of my condo \u2014 Alexa lives in my den, and Google in my bedroom. I myself am an insomniac, and they are awake and available around the clock to tell me the time, the temperature, the weather, and the news of the world, or any celebrity gossip. (I was shocked when Google identified the latest person to be accused of sexual harassment!)\nGAO reported that from 2004 through 2013, over 25 million participants in workplace plans separated from an employer and left at least one retirement account behind, despite efforts of sponsors and regulators to help participants manage their accounts. GAO found that although an employer may incur costs searching for separated participants, there are no standard practices for the frequency or method of conducting searches.\nJo Freeman writes: A thousand people rallied outside the Supreme Court the morning of January 26 while the Justices heard oral argument on Janus v. AFSCME Council 31 inside. The decision in this case will have profound effects on public service unions. Currently 22 states require employees who do not choose to join a union representing their workforce to still pay agency fees to that union. These are supposed to cover the costs of representation since unions must represent all workers in a bargaining unit and not just their members. Agency fees are less than full union dues, but they aren't negligible.\nSince Sandy Hook, states such as Colorado, Delaware, New York, Oregon and Washington have expanded background checks for gun purchases. During that same period, Alabama, Louisiana, Nevada, Tennessee, Utah and several other states enacted laws that prevent people convicted of domestic violence from possessing a gun. Nearly 30 states now have similar laws, and Oregon passed a similar bill last month. Unlike NRA-backed legislation that is passed mostly in red states, these measures are being passed in both blue and red states, said Allison Anderman, the managing attorney at the Giffords center.\nI've seen these birds soaring overhead more frequently this year. Sometimes they come fairly close to rooftops and float over backyards. They usually come in groups, tilting their wings to catch the updrafts. Why are they here? These birds used to be seen mostly in the southern states but since our climate has been warming, they now have moved to the north and have even been spotted in Canada. The world of nature is shifting as we can see by the weather forecasts this season. I wonder what the birds will think of that. Perhaps we all need to be flexible as our world changes.\n\"Strong job gains in recent years have led to widespread reductions in unemployment across the income spectrum and for all major demographic groups. For example, the unemployment rate for adults without a high school education has fallen from about 15 percent in 2009 to 5-1/2 percent in January of this year, while the jobless rate for those with a college degree has moved down from 5 percent to 2 percent over the same period. In addition, unemployment rates for African Americans and Hispanics are now at or below rates seen before the recession, although they are still significantly above the rate for whites. Wages have continued to grow moderately, with a modest acceleration in some measures, although the extent of the pickup likely has been damped in part by the weak pace of productivity growth in recent years.\nThe Internal Revenue Service warned taxpayers of a quickly growing scam involving erroneous tax refunds being deposited into their bank accounts. The IRS also offered a step-by-step explanation for how to return the funds and avoid being scammed. Following up on a Security Summit alert issued Feb. 2, the IRS issued this additional warning about the new scheme after discovering more tax practitioners\u2019 computer files have been breached. In addition, the number of potential taxpayer victims jumped from a few hundred to several thousand in just days.\nGirl with a Pearl Earring is a seventeenth-century painting that sparks the imagination. Her enigmatic gaze, Vermeer\u2019s use of color, and the outstanding play of light in this work captivate everyone who sees it. Researchers are also fascinated by the painting, and have a number of unanswered questions about how Vermeer painted this iconic work of art and which materials he used. The project The Girl in the Spotlight aims to come closer to resolving these issues using the latest technologies to investigate the canvas, pigments, oil and other materials that Vermeer used to create his renowned painting.\nSome legislatures have sexual harassment policies that allow nonemployees to file claims to the legislature of sexual harassment against legislative staff and lawmakers, according to a Stateline review of policies from nearly all states. But only a handful of states specifically mention interns, and even when they do, that doesn\u2019t necessarily give them legal standing for filing a civil lawsuit. Since October, about two dozen male state lawmakers have resigned, said they will resign, or been forced from their leadership roles after being accused of harassment or assault.\nJulia Sneden wrote: For many of us, the chronological downslope isn't nearly as trouble-free as that hike back down the mountain. Bruises and blisters gained along the trail are nothing compared to the indignities and ailments that come with age (and sometimes the poverty that accompanies it). Nonetheless, life's downslope shouldn't be undersold. It can be a time of great rewards and possibilities. It takes a bit of determination and imagination to navigate it with style and humor, but it can be a pretty good ride.\nThe Touch of a Ladybug: Creating a New Class of Flexible, Stretchable Electronically-sensitive Synthetic Materials\nRestoring some semblance of the sensation of touch has been a driving force behind Stanford chemical engineer Zhenan Bao's decades-long quest to create stretchable, electronically-sensitive synthetic materials. Such a breakthrough could one day serve as skin-like coverings for prosthetics. But in the near term, this same technology could become the foundation for the evolution of new genre of flexible electronics that are in stark contrast with rigid smartphones that many of us carry, gingerly, in our back pockets.\nWhich States Send the Most Olympians to the Winter Games? Colorado Is Home to 1 in 8, but Vermont Sends More Per Capita\nThe nine largest states (California, Texas, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Georgia, and North Carolina), which account for more than half of the total US population, contributed only 3 out of 10 Olympians. Colorado\u2019s workforce has one of the largest number of coaches, umpires and professional athletes on a per capita basis \u2014 about 2,000 per million population.\nTo hide the Russian origin of their activities, the defendants allegedly purchased space on computer servers located within the United States in order to set up a virtual private network. The defendants allegedly used that infrastructure to establish hundreds of accounts on social media networks such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, making it appear that the accounts were controlled by persons within the United States. They used stolen or fictitious American identities, fraudulent bank accounts, and false identification documents. The defendants posed as politically and socially active Americans, advocating for and against particular political candidates. They established social media pages and groups to communicate with unwitting Americans. They also purchased political advertisements on social media.\nWho Was Marjory Stoneman Douglas? Had a High School Named After Her, A Defender of the Everglades, Feminist, Short Story Writer and A Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient\nIt was 1917 and the First World War was raging in Europe. The Navy had sent a ship from Key West to Miami to enlist men and women into the Naval Reserve. Marjory went to cover the story of a local woman she heard about, who was to be the first woman to enlist. As it turned out, Marjory herself was the first woman to enlist. She joined the Navy, became a yeoman first class, and was stationed in Miami. After a year, she was discharged, joined the American Red Cross and went to Paris. The war ended, but Marjory stayed on in Paris. She traveled around Europe and wrote stories about the turning over of Red Cross clinics to the local authorities. As the Red Cross was closing down in Paris, her father cabled to offer her a job as an assistant editor of the Miami Herald.\nMargaret Cullison writes: My mother used few shortcuts when preparing food because she preferred the \"real thing\" to convenience foods that became more readily available in the mid-1940s. The popularity of canned soups was well established by that time. Quick dishes that relied for flavor on canned mushroom soup or dehydrated onion soup were much in favor after World War II but not by Mom. She may have fixed condensed tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwiches on a busy day for us kids. But I doubt she ever served such a meal to Dad, her champion and companion in their adventures in good eating.\nTaxpayers Don\u2019t Want to Pay for Lawmakers\u2019 Sexual Misdeeds, But Alternatives Pose Problems: Allegations of Wrongdoing Went Away After Victims Received Payouts From Public Funds\nLegislatures are often on the hook for the bad behavior of lawmakers because, like other employers, they are responsible under the Civil Rights Act for creating a workplace that is free from harassment and discrimination. Employers that don\u2019t attempt to prevent harassment \u2014 and report and investigate claims when they arise \u2014 can be held liable. It's part of an employer's job to prevent a toxic culture, said Emily Martin, general counsel at the National Women\u2019s Law Center, a nonprofit that provides legal defense for victims of harassment. But Martin said the bills raise an important question about why the state is paying for the transgressions of lawmakers, who do not have a traditional employer-employee relationship.",

On the other hand, only a tiny amount of the architectural plans of the firm Percilly-Bri\u00e8re have managed to be processed so far, yet they constitute a resource of paramount importance for the knowledge of the thermal heritage of Vichy and its surrounding areas. The collection of the Multimedia Library just enriched with the Dr Cousseau collection, which represents 8000 additional postal cards to treat.\nAcquisition of documents\nIn terms of the acquisition of documents (textual or iconographical), a priority could be accorded to those concerning thermal heritage, with a view to completing existing collections. Purchases would be focused on works in French on French thermal resorts, and in particular those from the Auvergne region, as well as foreign-language works on the spas of the countries concerned (with the exception of specialized medical works).\nBibliography: listing of existing works and studies\nThe composition and a regular updating of a bibliography dedicated to European thermal heritage is in production and will be posted online.\nThe composition of a list of websites dedicated to European thermal spas and particularly to their heritage is in production and will be posted online.\nDirectory: listing of personnel\nThe listing of personnel in the thermal heritage field for the 25 European EHTTA partner thermal resorts is in production and will be posted online in order to create synergies between researchers from all countries.",

        "title": "Square Enix Music Online :: NiGHTS into Dreams Original Soundtrack :: Review by Chris",
        "raw_content": "NiGHTS into Dreams Original Soundtrack :: Review by Chris\nAlbum Title: NiGHTS into Dreams Original Soundtrack\nCatalog No.: POCX-1038\nNiGHTS into Dreams was an adventure game developed by Sonic Team following two children entering a dream world. Three Sonic Team veterans, led by Tomoko Sasaki, crafted a soundtrack that complemented the game with light-hearted, flighty, and fantastical music. The initial soundtrack release was a one disc compilation of the main tracks from the soundtrack, but lacked several important themes and has since been made redundant by the NiGHTS into Dreams Perfect Album. Nonetheless, it provides a good reflection of the style of music for the game and should suffice for those who already own it.\nThe album opens with the orchestral overture, \"NiGHTS\". Composer Tomoko Sasaki introduces the main theme for the soundtrack in this track \u0097 simple yet dreamy and adventurous melody filled with Disney influences. Meanwhile Hayato Matsuo richly orchestrates it through grandiose, action-packed, whimsical, and romantic sections, culminating in a recapitulation with powerful brass and lavish piano decoration. The result perfectly captures the atmosphere of the game and is a wonderful stand-alone listen too. This is actually an arrangement exclusive to the album releases and an extended version of the game's opening theme featured at the very end of the album. The main theme is integrated in slightly less elaborate ways throughout the soundtrack in pieces such as the dance mix \"Message from Nightopia\", pop-flavoured \"Growing Wings\", or minimalistic \"D'Force Master\". The melody isn't that flexible and therefore often seems obligatory in these interpretations, yet the arrangements are good enough for the tracks to still be worthwhile.\nThroughout the soundtrack, Tomoko Sasaki tends to maintain a very optimistic vibe. The character select theme reinforces the youthful aura of the game with fragile tuned percussion and child voices. Setting themes such as the \"Gloom of the N.H.C.\" and \"Paternal Horn\" instantly delight with their whimsical phrasing and unconventional use of organic instrumentation. \"Suburban Museum\" is a particular favourite with its unforgettable melody and folky instrumentation. However, note that the main setting themes are shortened from their full versions featured in the Perfect Album, which is probably the biggest limitation of this soundtrack release. Even the themes for the antagonists can be really endearing, whether the bouncy funk-flavoured \"The Mantle\" or the temperamental semi-operatic \"She Had Long Ears\". Although everything is kept light throughout, there is certainly a tonne of diversity in styles here nevertheless. What's more, the synth is so well done that the instrumentation sounds well-balanced and realistic.\nThe co-composers certainly offer plenty of diversity in the soundtrack. Fumie Kumatami once again demonstrates her tendency to offer abstract fusions of electronic and acoustic sounds in \"The Amazing Water\" and \"Deep It Lies\". Whereas the former is quite soothing, the latter is pretty 'out there' and offers a vibrant accompaniment to delving into the dungeons. Naofumi Hataya's \"The Dragon Gave a Loud Scream\" is an infectious blend of jazz and electronic features, culminating in an extravagant saxophone solo from the 1:06 mark. The two versions of \"Nights and Reala\" are also delightful, the first a refreshingly unconventional chillout theme, the reprise a hard rock fest. Both make good use of the main theme, as does the unused orchestral action theme \"Know Thyself\" featured at the climax of the album. The album ends with the main arrangement of the main theme, \"Dream Dreams\", featuring gospel vocals. It's a select taste, but still relatively creative for a theme song and integrated into the game reasonably well.\nThe NiGHTS into Dreams soundtrack will be a highly enjoyable listen for fans of light-hearted fantasy music. However, the first soundtrack release is probably not the one to go for due to several reasons. Most importantly, it is incomplete given the extended stage themes, various event cues, and vocal track variations are all absent. In addition, it is out-of-print and therefore carries a high pricetag to buy second-hand these days. But fear not, as the NiGHTS into Dreams Perfect Album offers a complete soundtrack for a more affordable price and even a bonus Christmas-themed soundtrack to go with it.",

The children really thought about creating shape, pattern and form.\nAs historians we have been celebrating 100 years of peace. We collaged some poppies and made a garland to put in our outside space, to celebrate peace and as an act of remembrance.\nWe have started our new enquiry - 'who helps who?' We took some time to mindmap our ideas of who might help us in our local, and also wider, community. We had a great time exploring the different resources that people who help us, such as doctors or nurses, use and made some fantastic predictions about how they might work.\nThe children have been hard at work as historians thinking about how nurses have helped us in the past, and how this compares to how nurses work in our community in the present day. They designed and created a medical bag from junk modelling and filled it with things nurses would use everyday.",

        "raw_content": "Regina, SK, CAN 2006 RLC Study\nOfficial Title: Collision Statistics for Red Light Cameras\nAuthor: Stella Madsen and D. Calam\nThis is a 2006 report by the city of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada on the effects of red-light and speed cameras in the city of Regina. This study compares the before and after crash statistics of 3 RLC intersections in that city. The study uses 48 months of pre-RLC crash data compared to 48 months of post-RLC data. The statistics used in this analysis are from the Regina Police Department and the report does not defined a set Distance-From-Intersection inclusion zone for crashes. There are no data or conclusions in this report that suggest a reduction or increase in fatalities due to RLCs. The results show that crashes at RLC-equipped intersections have increased by 12% and injury crashes have increased almost 8% after RLCs were installed. The study concludes that: \"Red Light Cameras can have a significant impact on traffic collisions.\", and \"At the Lewvan Drive and Dewdney Avenue intersection, rear-end collision increased significantly causing the overall total number of collisions to increase. The increase in traffic volumes(50%) and the higher speed limit on Lewvan Drive are likely the reason for this change.\"\nThis is a basic 6 page report, the data and statistical analysis appear valid. One slightly diminishing factor is that there is a one month gap between the pre and post RLC periods, which is something that is rare in these kind of studies, although the very long pre and post RLC periods are far above average for a study like this and add to the validity of this report. The selection of 3 RLC intersections is a far below-average number of intersections for this kind of study and somewhat diminishes the validity of the report. The report uses no control intersections to help validate the data, or their assertion that the increase in crashes is caused by traffic increases. Some of the conclusions are supported by the supplied data.\nREGINA_SK_CAN_2006.pdf",

        "raw_content": "Justin G. Roy had a plan. Leading up to his final year of high school, Roy had his sights set on continuing his studies at a large university, preferably far from home. He wound up doing exactly the opposite, choosing to attend a small liberal-arts school in New England, not far from his hometown.\n\u201cIt was the best decision of my life,\u201d he says. \u201cI loved it because it was big enough for me to explore new things and small enough for me to have the familiarity of my surroundings and a sense of safety. I am who I am today because of how I was able to explore in that kind of an environment.\u201d\nToday, Roy is the dean of admissions for Georgian Court University in Lakewood, N.J., a small Roman Catholic liberal-arts college much like Assumption College in Worcester, Mass., where he earned his degree. He says having an open mind, and taking the time to visit schools apart from what he considered his \u201cideal,\u201d made all the difference. He advises prospective students to do the same as they prepare for the academic year ahead.\n\u201cEvery student should be looking for a school that \u2018fits,\u2019 and you find out what fits by doing some exploring,\u201d says Roy. \u201cWhen you find the right school, you\u2019ll feel it in your gut. The school I graduated from is almost exactly like GCU. It was the right fit for me, because I felt it would be a safe place for me to try new things and to fail, which is how we learn. There was always someone to pick me up and tell me why I failed and get me back on the right track.\u201d\nWith the fall 2018 term within reach, Roy has some advice for prospective students: Start preparing now; there\u2019s still plenty of time to move through the admissions process, but the window closes a bit with each passing day. For the fall 2018 semester at GCU, for example, students must complete their application for admission by Aug. 1.\n\u201cPreparation\u201d may differ from student to student, depending on his or her circumstances. For high school juniors, now is the time to start researching schools based on \u201cpersonality,\u201d location and academic programs/ majors, as well as other offerings to stimulate one\u2019s intellectual curiosity.\n\u201cThink about the type of school you want, but keep an open mind,\u201d Roy says. \u201cHave a plan, but be prepared for the plan to change. If you think you want a big school, take a tour of a few small schools, too. Doing so may very well reaffirm what you think, or it may open up a whole other set of options.\u201d\nFor high school seniors, now is the time to \u201cbuckle down,\u201d as Roy says. For starters, he suggests every college-bound senior take the SAT at least twice. That having been said, any senior who does not score well on the math- and science-heavy SAT should also consider the ACT, which is geared for more \u201ccreative minds.\u201d Roy says most colleges and universities will use either test as a tool to determine admissions and meritbased scholarships.\n\u201cSpending a Saturday taking a test is no one\u2019s idea of a good time, but just by increasing a score by 100 points, it could be worth thousands of dollars per year,\u201d he says. \u201cAlso, take the time to ask schools about the potential for merit aid, based on your grades and other qualifications.\u201d\nFor transfer students and adult learners, now is the time for evaluation. Perhaps a community college student wants to acquire a more advanced degree in lieu of entering the work force. Or maybe the dawning of the New Year has a working professional eager to complete a degree or change course midcareer. Either way, students should begin the process of interviewing colleges and learning which of their earned credits will transfer so they can plot out the cost and time required to complete the degree.\n\u201cStart having those conversations now rather than in the summer,\u201d Roy says. \u201cTalk to schools\u2019 admissions departments. Tour the campuses. Think about the next steps now before the busyness of summer kicks in.\u201d\nWhen reviewing potential schools, Roy says students should evaluate each candidate using quantitative and qualitative measures. Sources such as the U.S. Department of Education\u2019s College Scorecard can offer tremendous insight from a quantitative perspective, while taking the time to visit the campus will paint an accurate qualitative picture. Open houses are a fine way to gather information and evaluate the campus, faculty and student body, according to Roy.\nFor those interested in seeing what GCU has to offer, the college will host an open house on Feb. 10, from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., where visitors can meet current students, talk with faculty and explore the grounds of the 156-acre campus.\nFounded in 1908 by the Sisters of Mercy, GCU offers a comprehensive education with a liberal- arts core, in an environment that promotes intellectual inquiry, diversity and academic excellence. It\u2019s also the only university in Central and South Jersey to provide education in the Catholic Mercy tradition, which promotes the values of justice, integrity, respect, compassion and service. Nearly 2,400 students of all faiths and backgrounds\u20141,600 undergrads, 800 graduate students\u2014pursue 33 undergraduate majors, as well as more than 10 graduate programs.\nGCU ranked No. 25 on MONEYmagazine\u2019s 2015 list of \u201cTop 50 Colleges that Add the Most Value,\u201d based on numerous metrics, including the average annual earnings of graduates. Roy attributes this achievement in large part to a highly skilled faculty and intimate class sizes; GCU has a student-to-faculty ratio of 13:1. More than 90 percent of GCU educators hold doctorates or advanced degrees in their field, and Roy says all educators are considered experts in their respective industries. For example, Janice Warner, Ph.D., professor and dean of GCU\u2019s business school, was recently named one of 2017\u2019s \u201cBest 50 Women in Business\u201d by the business journal NJBIZ.\nGCU students have reaped the benefits of having such expertise at their disposal. GCU alumni have gone on to become CEOs, entrepreneurs and leaders in education and medical research. But no matter what career path a GCU student chooses to follow after he or she graduates, Roy believes all alumni share one essential characteristic.\n\u201cI expect each of them to be a contributing member to society,\u201d he says. \u201cOur graduates are going out into the world and making a difference. If you major in business here, we want you to become a successful businessperson who runs a good business but who also values compassion, service and respect. We want you to have the skills to make good decisions and to become part of the community, someone who continues to give back long after you\u2019ve left here.\u201d\nAnd give back they certainly have. Last year, GCU faculty, staff, students and alumni contributed nearly 95,000 volunteer hours to local and national nonprofit organizations. Furthermore, GCU\u2019s student-athletes earned first place in the 2017 NCAA Team Works Helper Helper Community Service Competition, Division II category, for their community outreach efforts.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a whole different dynamic coming to a small community like this,\u201d Roy says. \u201cPeople take care of each other here\u2014students and faculty alike. As a student, you have a network of people with experience outside of higher education at your fingertips. If you want to explore and flourish and say, \u2018I want to find out more about this or that,\u2019 a small, closeknit community like ours gives you the ability to become the person you want to be.\u201d\n900 Lakewood Ave. |Lakewood, NJ 08701 | (800) 458-8422 | georgian.edu",

        "raw_content": "The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment today finalized its plan for how to invest nearly $70 million in fines paid by VW as part of a nationwide settlement of the company\u2019s emissions cheating scandal. The plan will enable Colorado to encourage widespread, consumer adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and help clean up the state\u2019s air quality.\nThe plan allocates funds for the following purposes:\n$10.3 million for electric vehicle charging stations or hydrogen fueling stations;\n$18 million for electric or alternative fuel transit buses;\n$18 million for electric or alternative fuel trucks, shuttles and school buses;\n$11.7 million as flexible funds that will be allocated to the areas above with the most demand;\n$5 million to reduce diesel emissions in construction, agriculture, mining and industry;\n$5.7 million in administrative costs.\nThe state also announced that it will be releasing a request for proposals for companies to build fast, electric-vehicle charging stations along Colorado\u2019s major highways through the Alternative Fuel Colorado program. A study released last year by the City of Denver and the Regional Air Quality Council found that increased consumer adoption of EVs depends heavily on access to fast-charging sites along highways.\nWill Toor, Transportation Program Director for the Southwest Energy Efficiency project said, \u201cColorado has adopted bold plans to get nearly a million electric vehicles on the roads by 2030 and to dramatically increase the number of electric buses. The VW investments announced this week are a major step forward for electrification of the transportation system.\u201d\nStatewide, public transit agencies also have expressed keen interest in shifting to electric buses. In metro Denver, for example, the Regional Transportation District already has purchased and deployed electric shuttle buses on downtown Denver\u2019 16th Street Mall. The Colorado Springs transit agency, Mountain Metro, has announced plans to start converting its fleet to electric buses. Boulder\u2019s VIA Transit has announced plans to shift to 100 percent electric buses, too. Breckenridge just announced plans to buy electric buses. Funding from the VW settlement will help transit agencies make this transition, by paying the upfront cost difference between diesel and electric buses. This money will then allow transit agencies to benefit from the EV\u2019s reduced costs for fuel and maintenance\nToor explained that \u201dthe declining cost of batteries has made electric vehicles more available for large vehicles such as transit buses, school buses, and trucks. Colorado\u2019s decision to invest in electric trucks and buses will accelerate this transition away from dirty diesels and towards a clean energy future.\u201d\nRead more from SWEEP about Colorado\u2019s VW plan.\nAnd read SWEEP\u2019s blog on the state\u2019s EV program.\nAbout SWEEP: The Southwest Energy Efficiency Project (SWEEP) is a public interest organization promoting greater energy efficiency in Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming.",

        "title": "Wisconsin roadways ranked fourth-worst in the U.S. - Transportation Development Association of Wisconsin",
        "raw_content": "Wisconsin roadways ranked fourth-worst in the U.S. 3/1/2016\n3/1/2016, WBAY-TV Green Bay (video) \u2013 Wisconsin roadways were ranked fourth-worst in by the Department of Transportation\u2019s Road and Bridge Data by State, with 71 percent of Wisconsin roads in poor condition.\nAnother concerning statistic given to Action 2 News by the Transportation Development Association (which put out this report) says that 56 of 72 Wisconsin counties report that their roads are replaced every 75 years, rather than their intended life span of 30 years.\nHowever, that makes sense Brown County officials\u2014for example\u2014who decided to no longer replace entire stretches of roadways if it can be avoided, which saves them millions of dollars a year. \u201cFor our six year plan, we try to prioritize roads and bridges in terms of need, we try to work around all the DOT projects, we work around and with other municipalities,\u201d said Paul Fontecchio, P.E., Interim Public Works Director for Brown County.\nFontecchio says that the most dangerous roads are being fixed by the Department of Transportation on \u201chigh priority.\u201d Most damaged roads are an annoyance, but not a danger\u2014nothing more than an increased wear and tear factor on vehicles. \u201cI do know at the state level right now they\u2019re focusing on safety, the big projects that they\u2019re bringing forward are safety-related,\u201d he said.\nHighly-traveled and frequently complained about roads aren\u2019t always the biggest problem. Rural areas account for thousands of miles of poorly maintained roadways in Wisconsin, and few ways to get funds that would pay for road replacements. The declining populations of rural areas mean declining budgets for their municipalities. \u201cA really rural township is going to have almost nothing, so it gets a lot more difficult for them to keep up with their roads,\u201d Fontecchio said. \u201c I think of where my cabin is up north and the road there\u2014it\u2019s where my cabin is, I mean\u2014I don\u2019t expect it to be like Velp Avenue that is going to be resurfaced in a couple years.\u201d\nBrown County puts out their six-year plans for roadways and includes pictures of problem areas on their website here.\nSome experts believe that while Wisconsin has lost transportation funding in various ways, other states have increased their funding, which has added to the state\u2019s low ranking. 16 other states that have passed transportation packages since 2013, but Wisconsin was not one of them. See the report here.\nDeteriorating roads are the subject of contentious debate in Madison. Lawmakers and roads officials agree that funding is behind the problem of substandard roads. Some lawmakers believe the solution lies in raising public user fees and taxes spent on transportation\u2014which are statistically lower than other states across the U.S.\u2014but Governor Walker is against the idea. Tolls have been discussed, but are not legal unless non-existent lanes are added\u2014according to federal law. Right now, there is no concrete solution.\nLastly, the Department of Transportation projects frequently delay and interfere with city and county roads projects. \u201cThe DOT doesn\u2019t work around Brown County\u2019s projects, or the city\u2019s projects. We work around their projects. So, [Interstate] 41, you\u2019ve got this enormous project, one billion dollars\u2019 worth just in Brown County,\u201d said Fontecchio. \u201cWell, of course I can\u2019t be building a road right next to it at the same time the DOT is, because that just doesn\u2019t work.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Gaming Discussion => Nintendo Console Gaming => Topic started by: adamsappel on July 11, 2005, 12:33:45 AM\nTitle: DScussion\nDS kicks PSP's ass in customer survey (http://www.gamesarefun.com/news.php?newsid=5278)\nThe report also states that the main category the DS outperforms the PSP in is games:\n\"End-users feel that the DS offers superior game choice and game quality thanks to backwards compatibility with Gameboy Advance titles, a consistently high rate of new game releases and many great individual titles. The DS also dominates the gameplay category thanks to well designed controls and a unique touch screen interface that customers much preferred to the PSP\u2019s widely disliked analog control stick.\nCustomers are impressed by the multi-player gaming experience on both devices and cite it as a factor in deciding to purchase games. It is clear that games targeted at handheld devices will need to incorporate some form of multi-player aspect to ensure replay value.\nGames that customers rated well on DS included Need for Speed 2 and Star Wars Episode III, both due to gameplay. Gamers didn\u2019t like Madden 2005 due to perceived poor graphics and player AI. PSP gamers rated Ridge Racer poorly due to the graphics and complained about the poor replay value of Twisted Metal.\"\nTitle: Re: DS kicks PSP's ass in customer survey\nI would think more people would be satisfied with the DS since it has out sold the PSP nearly 5 to 1 (last I heard).\nThe methodology of the study did not state what websites were used to come up with the results, making me wonder how many fanboy sites were visited? I wonder how many consumers had both units? The people that own both the PSP and the DS are the only people whose opinion would really count in the debate. I don't own either myself, so I am surely in no position to comment on it.\nI don't care either way; I am just always suspect of these kinds of studies.\nPost by: Failsafe on July 11, 2005, 08:28:25 AM\nFuture Shop has $50 off on the PSP/Gretzky bundle. The bundle also includes the Spiderman 2 UMD which means they still haven't gone through their original stock I guess.\nPost by: RuFfNeCk on July 11, 2005, 08:39:08 AM\nJesus christ. How many people did they poll? The two people that actually bought NFSU2 for the DS?\nPost by: Beer Monkey on July 11, 2005, 11:29:21 AM\nPSP gamers rated Ridge Racer poorly due to the graphics\nWell that's a bunch of bullshit. I don't believe that for a second. There's some kind of bias in their survey wording or methodology.\nI don't have the exact numbers right now but the PSP is outselling the DS in the USA pretty much every month, though there's only a couple of months of sample data for the PSP. In Asia the DS typically outsells the PSP. Worldwide, the DS has a very large head start, even if the PSP catches up it isn't going to dominate like the fanboys predicted.\nFrankly, so far, the DS is just a lot more fun to me. I get addicted to stuff like Zoo Keeper and Polarium to where I can't stop playing. Since I've owned the PSP, I've spent more times watching movies and playing emulators than I've spent playing the PSP games!\nThey are both good systems but frankly both have a fairly weak software selection so far (the DS is a little stronger in that regard but not great). Either are worth owning but $250 is just 'stupid' money to a lot of people as far as handhelds go (and the damned games are too expensive too).\nThe PSP is the system for graphics whores with too much money. The DS is the system for people who want unique fun gameplay instead of a big pretty screen and clones of the games they already own for Xbox and PS2.\nPost by: Bryan on July 11, 2005, 11:58:33 AM\nI take fucking offense to that. I do not have too much money.\nQuote from: Beer Monkey on July 11, 2005, 11:29:21 AM\nHow can you be offended when I'm including myself in that category? ;)\nOK, maybe I don't have too much money. I don't even have the money for the new 720p TV that I crave.\nMore money than sense, maybe that's it.\nThe survey did use an odd/flawed methodology, I think. I couldn't open the PDF file of the report, but the article at gamesarefun.com implies they looked at aggregate review sites like gamerankings.com. Hardly scientific. Still, the conclusions seem plausible.\nThe PSP had a great launch, but the games have dried up right now. Most of the emphasis is towards movies, and I find those overpriced and inferior to DVD. I'm more excited about emulation these days, but that will also require me to spend more towards a larger memory card. I think the DS has a much better lineup of games coming, and developers are finally thinking of new ways to utilize the two screens and stylus control.\nPersonally, I find my DS to be more fun and it sees more playtime. That one system can hold a DS game and dozens of GBA games (via Flashcart) makes it more \"travel friendly.\" I'm still afraid of breaking the PSP. And the $10-$20 difference in game prices really sways my purchasing.\nPost by: Screwnut on July 19, 2005, 03:13:05 PM\nWell I was biased towards the whole handheld gaming systems. I remember once saying \"Only losers would have to have a Gameboy to play games on the go,....nope I'll stick with my 8-bit Nintendo\" Course that was during the days when gaming first got started! I have seen the ways. I've had the pleasure of playing a PSP and watching a PSP movie, but I find the system akward to hold....kindof like holding a home theatre remote sideways. The games look really great, but it's the fact that I can play the same games on my PS2 and as far as Sony is considered....I am not a moron...I am not going to go out and rebuy movies just for my PSP!!!!!! That's the problem with todays young yuppies 17-28 year olds who have to have everything NOW NOW NOW!!\nNow I do own a used DS for one simple reason..........to relive the best video gaming age again.....what they call in Comic busniess as the \"Golden years\". The years of the Super NES! Great titles like Sword of Mana and Fire Emblem etc. Back when RPG's where made for the story and character development, not for the flash graphics and 10 min presentations of spells and FMV clips. Case in point Sword of Mana for the GBA......wow.........I did the impossible.....I've travelled back in time!\nPost by: Bryan on July 19, 2005, 03:20:02 PM\nYou can play all of those on a PSP now, too!\nDS goes to Mt. Everest (http://gba.gamespy.com/articles/632/632356p1.html)\nWe all know that the Nintendo DS is a gaming machine you can take anywhere. But Chris Grubb and Neal Mueller took that idea a bit further recently when they brought Nintendo DSes with them when they climbed Mount Everest, the tallest mountain in the world.\nPost by: CaptDS9E on August 23, 2005, 07:58:34 AM\nAnyone who says that Ridge Racer has flawed graphics better go see a eye doctor for retinal transplants\nTitle: Re: DS versus PSP\nSony exec dismisses Nintendo DS as \"irrelevant\" (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=11156)\nPhil Harrison denies rival handheld is a serious competitor for the PlayStation Portable.\nA top Sony executive has dismissed the Nintendo DS as \"an irrelevance\" when it comes to predicting the success of the PSP, describing the handheld's touch-screen feature as nothing more than a \"gimmick.\"\nSpeaking to trade magazine MCV, VP of studios Phil Harrison said: \"The idea of a handheld rivalry with Nintendo is an irrelevance. Those formats don\u2019t appear in our planning.\"\n\"It\u2019s not a fair comparison; not fair on them, I should stress. That sounds arrogant, maybe, but it\u2019s the truth.\"\nHarrison went on to suggest that the DS can't compete with the PSP in the hardware stakes, telling MCV: \"It\u2019s fair to say that Nintendo stepped out of the technical race and went for a feature differentiation with the touch screen.\"\n\u201cBut I fear that it won\u2019t have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick - so the long-lasting appeal of the platform is at peril as a direct result of that.\u201d\n\u201cNintendo knows its target audience, because it has really narrowed that down; and it\u2019s pretty much defined by a boy or girl\u2019s ability to admire Pok\u00e9mon,\" he added.\nSony is anticipating high demand for the PSP when it launches in Europe on September 1, priced at GBP 179.99. However, it remains to be seen whether the handheld will overtake the DS to become market leader - more than 6.65m consoles have already been sold worldwide, including 300,000 in the UK.\nTitle: Re: DScussion\nNintendo reveals DS Wi-Fi adapter, new games (http://www.gamespot.com/news/6135138.html)\n(http://img.engadget.com/common/images/3060000000047955.JPG?0.6175419175286951)\nFrom joystiq.com (http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000240061916/)\nDuring a Tokyo press conference today, Nintendo showed-off a WiFi USB Connector that will allow users without a wireless router to convert broadband-enabled PCs into DS hotspots. The device is priced at 3500 yen (about $31) in Japan and \u00a330 (about $52) in the UK. The Nintendo WiFi Connection service is set to launch this fall.

That thing looks dead sexy to me. If it was coming out any sooner, I would probably get one of these for Connor's birthday instead of the new black SP.\nSo is the web browser built-in or is it an add-on?\nThe web browser is only available in Japan at the moment, and I imagine it comes on a DS card, so there'll be some memory there for updates, etc.\nNobody is denying the sexiness of the DSL. It just really ruins the sleek look to have the cart sticking out like that. I'd also be worried about cart damage while not playing, so you have to carry the game outside the system. Not a deal-breaker by any stretch, but aesthetically disappointing.\nPost by: mrpig on March 03, 2006, 05:26:25 PM\nDown in the Opera DS thread (http://www.tehbias.com/forum/index.php?topic=859.0) you'll find that the web browser will be on a DS cartridge and cost about $30.

Watch them release a $150 bundle with the new SMB but not until a month or two later. I like the white enough to not wait for a future blue or black version. I haven't played much MPH because I really can't get comfortable with the system using fps controls, hopefully the new form factor works better for me.\nNintendo DS continues to broaden the market for video games. Nintendo DS has software that appeals to older gamers, hard-core gamers and even lapsed gamers. Brain Age\u2122: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day went on sale in the United States on April 17 after encountering massive success in Japan. Nintendo will continue that momentum by introducing two upcoming titles that require more brain power than firepower. On June 5, Big Brain Academy\u2122 arrives to challenge users with a variety of mental tests designed to evaluate various skills. Then on June 26, Sudoku Gridmaster will keep number crunchers busy with more than 400 sudoku puzzles, each one sanctioned by the original creators of sudoku.\nThat is faneffingtastic!

Taunted me all afternoon, laying on the corner of my desk - until I was called into work at Gamestop. That threw off my previous evening plans, which then had to be finished after I returned home from Gamestop - so I actually didn't play the game until 3:30am this morning.\nI was so tired - but the game was so much fun. It's not terribly difficult at all - and you'll end up with a ton of extra lives, so you pretty much can't lose. But it's a very, very solid mix of SMB, SMB 3, and Super Mario World. Very much worth your money - although I have one complaint. The jumping feels weird. Maybe because I was tired - but it just didn't feel quite as precise as it should. With the original SMB, I felt like (and I still do) that I can put Mario right where I want him to go with minimal effort - here, I didn't quite have that same feeling.\nThat could change though.\nQuote from: downfall on May 17, 2006, 03:00:19 PM\nWelcome back!

Most people don't even know that West Virginia is a state at this point, much less where Charleston is. ;D\nAs for New Super Mario Bros. - I sat down last night and played all the way through it, not worrying about all the extra levels - just enough to beat the game. A bit on the easy side, but then again, the originals are pretty easy too. They were only difficult back when things like that hadn't been done yet, and so you weren't sure what to expect.\nThe controls are spot on - but you have to adjust to them. It doesn't control like SMB 3 or any of the other ones - but once you're adjusted, it controls as well as any of the others, if that makes sense.\nAnd I also have to say that World-8 is everything that's right about video games, all wrapped up in one nice little package. It's perfect!\nPost by: Screwnut on May 18, 2006, 04:41:32 PM\nPicked it up!!

This is a beautiful, sexy handheld (twss). I didn't think I'd like the white, but it really looks nice. I wish the GBA carts fit flush, and it had a flap instead of an ejectable cover to the GBA slot. The first one I bought had a stuck pixel. It does not come with a wrist strap. As slim and sleek as it is, it still feels solidly-constructed. I'm using the PSP neoprene sleeve to hold it, and it feels over-protective.\nAs so often happens with Nintendo handhelds, this is the version they should have launched. But, could they have? Is it only the runaway success that lets them affordably redesign the system? Or is it only up against the sleek PSP that the original DS looks so dated and clunky and in need of redesign? I firmly believe that only the success of the Afterburner light mod convinced Nintendo to launch the SP. I think if this style had launched, PSP might have been buried.\nQuote from: adamsappel on June 11, 2006, 05:05:19 PM\nNo DS Lite comments?\nAlas, too poor to get one at the moment *sniff* Congrats on getting yours though! Can't wait to get one myself, thanks for posting your thoughts.\nis the psp buried in japan? what are sales like there?\nDS is definitely outselling PSP in Japan, but worldwide PSP is holding it's own. Haven't seen any specific numbers in the last couple of months.\nGot my DSL today. Pretty sweet. The long, chunky stylus is a big improvement. The screen is absurdly bright. I also think they punched up the colors, maybe a little too much (red push?). I was very surprised that the sound is still pretty good. It's not as loud and full-range as on the larger DS, but it still blows away the PSP and the Micro. Under normal conditions you still get decent sound without headphones. I'm happy with the purchase.\nEDIT: Oh, the d-pad and face buttons are a big step up. I dunno what they were thinking on the 1.0 DS, especially with the buttons.\nGoing out to pick mine up shortly. I'll post my impressions later on today!\nNow I wish I had pre-ordered one. Oh well, I'll stick with my brick.\nIt's charging now!\nMan, this thing is sweet! There are four brightness levels. The lowest setting is actually comparable to the original DS. It's still better though because there are no 'hot-spots' on the screen from the backlight - it's all a uniform brightness. When you bump the brightness up - WOW!! I currently have it on the second level setting and loaded up Mario Kart. The colours are so vivid now! I can't say enough good things about the screen right now. There is no setting to turn the backlight off completely anymore, but who actually ever played with it like that?\nStrange that no wrist strap/thumb pad is included (although, there IS a spot for it). What about games like Super Mario DS that are designed to be played with thumb movement? Oh well, I'm using my old wrist strap. Loving the bigger stylus too!\nAll this and no dead/stuck pixels.

I got the chance to play the Mario demo on it at TRU this weekend and that really didn't need to happen. The screen is amazing and now I am going to have to get one. I'm also going to have to get the new Mario as the demo had me hooked.

I didn't need to be told twice. It came with the new Mario Bros. So far it's vastly superior to the original.\nWell now you can play multiplayer with lots of your carts, no need in many cases to buy a second copy of the game. Of course you'll have to fight over who gets the Lite. :)\nSpeaking of multiplayer, I think you guys need to post your new friend codes. Now that you have your new Lites maybe we can get some games going again soon. Metroid would be high on my list and Tetris too.\nI do need to get my codes posted.\nI'm done with MP:H though <ducks>. Even though I like it better on the Lite (I spent a couple of hours trying both the stylus and the thumble), I just don't enjoy controlling an FPS this way.\nQuote from: Beer Monkey on June 26, 2006, 11:09:50 AM\nI hear what you're saying about the controls but I still like the game on multiplayer but I keep thinking about trading it in since I don't really play it.\nFortunately my wife is really into Brain Age Soduko right now and that works just fine with the old DS. I really haven't had too much time with it yet due to the busy weekend but that should change this week. I really want to play through that new Mario Bros.\nI'll try to get the new friend codes posted today after my dentist appt.\nFinally, I can get my pink DS Lite.

Such is my luck--I'd rather have had the onyx over the white, and I was three weeks too early. *sigh* (But it *has* been a fun three weeks! :D )\nBTW, I've been addicted to the mini-games in the new Super Mario title. The actual SMB game isn't that difficult, but I like the mini-games for a quick fix, when I want to play something short...or just want to turn on the DS for a few minutes. ;) Mario even says \"goodbye\" when you close the lid, and \"It's-a me, Maaario!\" when you open it again.\nPost by: RuFfNeCk on September 05, 2006, 10:48:09 AM\nWhile in Charlotte I couldn't resist picking up a DS Lite. So I did. :)\nI've got NSMB, StarFox Command and Metroid Prime Hunters.\nI've posted my new Friend Code for the games over in the official thread (http://www.tehbias.com/forum/index.php?topic=660.msg23901#msg23901).\nI'll get them added to the list, Chris.\nSo the black and pink DS lites hit the stores next week, and I was in my local Gamestop plunking down some cash on my preorder when I noticed a sign that said you can get a new lite for $69.99 with and old DS trade, or $99.99 with a GBASP trade. Both new colors and the original white are included in the offer.\n$50 isn't bad considering you wouldn't likely get much more on ebay and wouldn't have to deal with the shipping/listing fee/selling hassles. I think $30 is a fine trade price for a beat up GBASP!\nPost by: Rudy on September 10, 2006, 10:39:49 PM\nI don't know if it's just me, but this DS is the first handheld game that I've actually been excited about buying new games for. I'd been playing with my kids' Advance SPs, and have had an older Advance, but never really played many games seriously on it. Yeah, I've played Galaga quite a bit to pass time (from the Namco Museum cart), and have also done well in the Kerby and Super Mario World games, but the latter is a rehash of something I played to death on SNES when it first came out. IMHO they have some really good, unique games now, and there's enough horsepower inside to make these games work well. The touchscreen is a neat twist I wouldn't have imagined a few years ago--I'm almost getting used to it. And the WiFi I'd never have imagined in the past either.\nJust my thoughts, having owned my DS Lite for a month now.\nPost by: fetterdave on September 13, 2006, 11:10:17 AM\nSo, Gamestop will sell me a DS Lite for $100 if I trade in my SP.\nAdvise me, oh TB friends: should I do it?\nQuote from: fetterdave on September 13, 2006, 11:10:17 AM\nI'll give you the same advice I gave to Chris and that is that you should do it....according of course that there are games on the DS that you are interested in.\nOh, there are plenty of games I'm interested in, but overall I'm probably just going to save my money for 360 game purchases in November.\nYou could always look at the DS as a family purchase that everyone could use. :)\nPost by: mrpig on September 13, 2006, 11:27:52 AM\nI\u2019d do it. I already traded my SP in to get $30 in credit. I might even take my wife\u2019s DS and trade it for a Lite next week. With the credit I have I\u2019d only be looking at $40 for a new DS Lite. Right now my wife is addicted to Sudoku Grand Master and still has a ways to go before she gets though all the puzzles.\nPost by: Rudy on September 13, 2006, 11:47:52 AM\nTarget shows the Pink and Onyx DS Lite coming out today.\nQuestion: is Tetris DS worth getting? How does the WiFi portion work? (I take it that you compete against someone online?) I was addicted to Tetris back on an old PC version I had. Not sure if I'd be as thrilled with it now as I used to be. It might be a title I look for \"previously owned\" in a few months.\nQuote from: Rudy on September 13, 2006, 11:47:52 AM\nI really like Tetris DS. There's a lot of game modes that you can play. My favourite mode is called \"touch\" where there is a tower of blocks and you have to use the stylus to move blocks into lines and lower it until the cage of balloons hits the ground.\nI've only played the WiFi a couple times but I liked it. I can't remember, as it's been a while, if there are multiple game modes but I only played people head to head. I think you can have up to 8 people playing at a time.\nThat does sound interesting--much more than a single Tetris game like the original. Thanks!\nI am seriously considering getting another copy of Tetris for our house. I have not been able to play it since I gave my wife a DS last month. Is it addicting? Lets just say I woke up last night at 3am, and my wife was sitting up in bed, still playing Tetris.\nIn regards to the EB trade in deal, can I trade in both a DS phat and GB advance towards a DS lite for $50?. Also, is there a way to find out what I'd get in trade in value for the following games: Nintendogs, Meteos, Feel the Magic, and HalfLife (Xbox version). I want a black DS lite, but am cash strapped this week. Damn IRS quarterly estimated tax payments!\nQuote from: Sparkz on September 13, 2006, 02:45:00 PM\nI'm not sure if you could trade two for one, and I know the EBs around here will not quote prices for trades over the phone, so just ask when you are in there.\nI picked up one of my onyx DS Lites that I had on reserve today. I would have much rather had a matte finish than this shiny one :-\\ It is like those black ipods that show every damn finger print get all smudged up. It also has a stuck pixel so it is going back after work tomorrow. I might opt to get the plain old white one, as these smudges are annoying as hell... >:(\nDoes the black DS show fingerprints as bad as the PSP?\nPost by: Bellatrix on September 13, 2006, 09:48:45 PM\nRudy, it's a very fun game! I really enjoy Tetris DS, paricularly the WiFi/multiplayer stuff. It's so much fun!! The reason I enjoy it so much is the multiplayer modes in it.\nHowever, the single player version is good in it as well.\nMy favourite Tetris is still the one on the original Gameboy. That one will never die...it's timeless.\nTetris DS is one that if I hadn't picked it up when it was released and I was looking for it now, I probably would buy it \"previously owned\".\nI picked up a black one tonight. The special offer is an extra $20 for the DS Phat, bringing it to $60 trade-in. My GBA SP traded in for $30. So, the DSL was ~$40. It sucks that you get taxed on the full price, and not the price you actually pay.\nI haven't opened it yet, so I don't know if it's as bad a fingerprint-magnet as the PSP. I imagine so. I spent a week obsessing about the smudges, then stopped caring.\nQuote from: scobeto on September 13, 2006, 09:04:15 PM\nI picked up one of my onyx DS Lites that I had on reserve today. I would have much rather had a matte finish than this shiny one :-\\\nAgreed...the two GBA:SPs I bought for the kids last year are matte, and while they show a couple of tiny scratches, they don't look constantly smudged. In a way I'm glad I got the white DS, just for that reason, as I figured the onyx would show too many fingerprints. The pink may be light enough to hide them, but I'm the last person who should have a pink DS in my hands... :D\nThe WiFi would be the deal clincher for me. Thanks!\nBack when Tetris was first released, I had a \"non-official\" version I downloaded over an old 1200 baud modem back around 1988. There's still some charm to that old version--I spent countless hours playing it! There was also another PC-based game called Frac, that was basically Tetris, but in 3D, with various shapes made out of cubes that were falling down. We were addicted to it at work, and I've never seen another game like it anywhere.\nQuote from: Rudy on September 13, 2006, 09:53:40 PM\nThere was also another PC-based game called Frac, that was basically Tetris, but in 3D, with various shapes made out of cubes that were falling down.

She was actually quite pleased with her new machine. Stayed up late playing Sudoku yet again. She also mentioned that the DS Lite was easier to hold and my wife has rather small hands.\nAllen, what happened to the pink one for your daughter??\nQuote from: mrpig on September 14, 2006, 10:59:00 AM\nI ended up doing the selfish thing. I'm passing my white one down to her. I put a Mario skin on it, so it's just like new, right? Don't you judge me!\n(Actually, I wasn't sure if she'd reject it as being \"not like Daddy's,\" and I'm nowhere near confident enough to play a pink DSL.)\nDamn, I'm going to stop buying game systems from game retailers.\nMy new black DS I picked up yesterday had a stuck blue pixel. I take it back today and Gamestop doesn't want to take it back. I have to use my $20 warranty. Even then, they are reluctant to exchange it. I ask, \"If I break it in half will you give me a new one?\" and they exchange it. ???\nAnyway, I had two reserved but wanted to make sure my son wanted to get rid of his phat blue one before I picked them both up. Of course, he did and so I picked his up today: stuck green pixel!\nTwo out of freaking three??\nRather than hassle with damned Gamestop, I am going to return it to Nintendo...I guess.\nExchanging with Nintendo is a breeze. Nintendo's hardware comes with a year warrantee. The Gamestop warrantee is a waste of money; I think you only get to use it once, anyway. Contact Nintendo and they can send you a new unit even before you have to mail the damaged one back (they'll pre-charge your credit card, but it doesn't go through unless you don't send it in).\nNintendo tried to talk me out of it as well, telling me dead pixels were normal for LCD devices and I wouldn't notice after a couple of weeks! I told him I noticed it now and wanted it corrected.\nI guess they are going to repair it: They are sending a label and gave me a repair number. Repair or replacement is fine with me as long as the end result is a dead pixel free DSL. I don't see why retailers and manufacturers expect you to shell out money and settle for less than what you paid for.\nThe trick is buying hardware at the right retailer. The only reason I bought from Gamestop this time was the trade in deal. My white (now my wife\u2019s) DS Lite was purchased at Costco. I\u2019ve never had a problem returning anything to Costco.\nPost by: Geese on September 24, 2006, 03:42:45 PM\nI'd like to announce I'm now part of the \"DS-lite\" crowd. Traded in my DS, Advance SP, Advance, and a handful of games, and walked away with a pearl DS Lite.\nAfter seeing my DS next to my friends Lite (and seeing how my backlight looked like it was shut off compared to the lite), I had to make the plunge. Very happy with the 'upgrade'.\nQuote from: Geese on September 24, 2006, 03:42:45 PM\nYeah, a side by side comparison and the will to resist getting a Lite is withered greatly. Congrats :)\nI hope mine gets back from Nintendo in the next week or two... :'(\nI took advantage of the EB trade in deal, and traded in my old DS and 9 games (PSP, Xbox, and DS games I haven't played in forever). I was planning on getting a used copy of either Zoo Keeper or Magnetica in hopes of prying Tetris loose from my wife's DS, but there was no used copies or new copies of either. So I treated myself to a new copy of Metroid Pinball. Ended up only having to give EB $6 and some change.\nI got the black one for myself, and left my wife the white one. I had every intention of getting the pink one for her, but her white one has fallen off the night stand four times already (thankfully I got a Best Buy warranty, knowing there was a high chance of nightstand falls happening). So as I was packing up the stuff to take to EB, I noticed the white DS under the bed and figured it had taken a fifth dive. I figured I would need a new warranty with a pink one, so decided on a black one.\nThe new back DS does show fingerprints, but only on the outside of the case, so its not as distracting as the PSP. Overall I'm very happy. And last night, as my wife and I were sitting up in bed, each of us playing our DS lites, she said to me, \"You know honey, I think this is one of the best presents you ever got me\".\nAnd last night, as my wife and I were sitting up in bed, each of us playing our DS lites, she said to me, \"You know honey, I think this is one of the best presents you ever got me\".\nI don\u2019t know what all you DS Lite owners do for storing/carrying you DSLs around, but I like to have a case for my portables. If I\u2019m actually taking it somewhere then it\u2019ll most likely be banging around in a backpack with a bunch of other stuff. Don\u2019t want any booboos.\nFor the original DS there was a nice licensed case that would also hold a few DS games as well as GBA games. It was a little bulky but I liked it. For the DSL I\u2019ve been waiting for a nice case but the only thing on the store shelves that was descent has a crappy vinyl insert designed to let you play the DSL while it\u2019s still in said case. Not for me. I wanted something a bit better. I went looking around on Play Asia and found a nice hard case by Hori that looked like it was perfect. The pictures on Play Asia and Hori\u2019s sites weren\u2019t the best but it was only $10 so I said \u201cwhat the hell\u201d and ordered it.\nIt arrived about a week later and it turned out to be all I had hoped for and more! The DSL fits snugly and there is room for an extra stylus as well as for several games. I think I have 7 in it at the moment and could easily put 4 more in. It\u2019s categorized as a hard case but it\u2019s not firm plastic, it\u2019s more like a reinforced soft case. I think it\u2019s ideal for a small protective case.\nIf anyone is looking for a case for their DSL, this one is highly recommended by mrpig!\nP.S. I\u2019d provide a link but I can\u2019t view Play Asia from work. If I remember I\u2019ll do it when I get home. I think you can easily find it by searching for ds hard case on playasia.com.\nEDIT: Link. (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-b6-77-1r-49-en-15-ds%2Bhard%2Bcase-70-1i24.html)\nI finally broke down and bought a DS Lite :D I went to EB on Monday and traded in my old DS plus three DS games and about four X-Box games. The total for the trade-in's came to $117.00 so I ended up paying about $37.00 for the Lite. Not a bad deal at all :D Jeremy and I both figured I'd be shelling about about $100.00 for it so the $37.00 was a pleasant surprise!\nI got the onyx Lite and I really like it! I played it a lot today (home sick from school) and I love how clear and bright the screen is. The only thing I've noticed with the onyx though is it does show finger prints quite a bit. However, I am very happy with it :D\nWooHoo! My DS Lite arrived from the repair shop today with all pixels present and accounted for :)\nI just noticed Chloe's DSL has the hairline crack on the left hinge problem. Contacted Nintendo (on a Sunday even!) and they're sending me a box for replacement. Yeah, it's a bummer that the system has this manufacturing flaw, but it's so nice to deal with a company that just replaces it without a lot of runaround or lies.\nExchanging with Nintendo is a breeze. Nintendo's hardware comes with a year warrantee. Contact Nintendo and they can send you a new unit even before you have to mail the damaged one back (they'll pre-charge your credit card, but it doesn't go through unless you don't send it in).\nI love Nintendo. Microsoft needs to seriously study their customer service. Chloe's DSL won't turn on, the screen blinks and goes out. I called Nintendo this morning and they're sending me a replacement (which will also have a one-year warranty). The CSR, in addition to being chatty and probably really cute, sounded like she was born and raised in Redmond. No arguing, no lies, no being transferred to a supervisor for more arguments and lies. Just fantastic customer service that breeds lifelong customer loyalty.\nNintendo unveils new DS camera (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=26382)\nNintendo has announced plans to release Face Training, a new DS game which will come with a digital camera add-on and teach users how to perform facial exercises.\nAs reported by Wired, the camera will plug into the DS's GBA port, and will come bundled with the game in make-up box-style packaging.\nFumiko Inudo, an expert in facial exercise, will be endorsing the game. It's being developed by Intelligent Systems, the studio behind Advance Wars and FIre Emblem.\nFace Training is due out in Japan on August 2. Nintendo has yet to reveal whether the game will go on sale in the US or Europe.\nWe dangled a carrot for Xander over the weekend - all A's and B's at school and he will get a shiny new DS Lite in December (not Xmas), just as a reward. He has a few friends with them and it is the only system we are lacking (other than the PS3).\nPRESS RELEASE: Hong Kong Raid Nets 10,000 Products Used To Play Pirated Nintendo Software\nPress release supplied by Games Press 09:59 (GMT) 23/10/2007\nREDMOND, Wash., Oct. 22, 2007 - At Nintendo's request, the Hong Kong High Court has intervened to help stop a global distribution operation involving game copying devices and modification chips (\"mod chips\") that violate its copyrights and trademarks in the Nintendo DS\u2122 and Wii\u2122 systems.\nOn Oct. 8th, the court ordered the raid of Supreme Factory Limited facilities. During a three-day period, Nintendo representatives seized more than 10,000 game copying devices and mod chips. The game copying devices connect to the Nintendo DS and are used to copy and play game files offered unlawfully via the Internet. The mod chips allow the play of pirated Wii discs or illegal copies of Nintendo games downloaded from the Internet.\nThe search also turned up volumes of documents reflecting the scope of the operation. The Supreme Factory Limited has ties to a French company, Divineo SARL, and its principal, Max Louarn, who are also named in the legal action initiated by Nintendo. The High Court prohibited the companies from further distribution of the devices and from disposing a portion of their assets worldwide, and ordered that such assets be frozen pending outcome of the legal proceedings.\nThis may affect the supply/price of modchips and flashcarts, so I would (and did) order now if you're interested in such things.\nNintendo denies analyst claims of slimmer new DS with larger screens (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=30672)\nWhich pretty much guarantees one is coming.\nAlthough, if we have to wait for sales to taper off...\nPost by: Beer Monkey on November 15, 2007, 11:14:48 AM\nBetter have wide viewing angles like the old DS lite (the new ones that have been shipping in the last couple of months have a lower-quality screen).\nI'm pretty happy with my Lite. I can't see upgrading as long as it keeps working. And so far, no hinge crack!\nPost by: Failsafe on November 15, 2007, 11:18:12 AM\nDoes this mean larger screens with the same resolution? Is that a good thing?\nPost by: iPeter on November 20, 2007, 02:15:35 PM\nI've been chatting with Allen about getting DS and he says the newer models (not white or black) don't have the same resolution as the old ones. Has anyone had both and can confirm this? I want to get one of these Zelda bundles (http://kotaku.com/gaming/special-editions/new-ds-bundles-now-with-pictures-324796.php), but not if the hardware isn't as good as a white or black version.\nPost by: Beer Monkey on November 20, 2007, 02:25:31 PM\nIt isn't the resolution, it's the viewing angle that has gone to hell with the latest LCD vendor. I think it affects all the new models (red+black, Zelda, whatever).\nEveryone seems to be saying that the white/black/pink don't have these screens. Also, there might be a vaguely-yellowish tint to the new screens. Have they switched over to a new vendor across all SKUs, or just the newest versions? Is there a lot number or something on the box that would indicate when it was manufactured?\nPost by: Rudy on November 20, 2007, 02:47:15 PM\nOh brother. I can't afford to send my DS in for repair. I just hope I don't end up with a \"refurbished\" replacement that has the new crappy screen. What impresses me about the DS is how bright and clear the LCD is, even when I can't hold it at an ideal angle.\nI found a pre-owned, Black DS-Lite for $79 at GameRush. It didn't have a charger, so they knocked $10 off the price. I then used $36 in trade credit (from Uncharted:Drake's Fortune) toward it. Got it for $33.\nJust ordered my Flashcart for $41. It'll be here on Saturday and I should be good to go.\nPaging Chris...\nSuhweet. Got my flashcart today. I'm rockin out Pirate style.\nPost by: Rudy on January 25, 2008, 03:32:59 PM\nIs the original DS (not the lite) hard to find? My older daughter wants a DS, but I'm afraid of breakage--she doesn't have the best of motor skills, and also has a bit of a temper. After what happened with my DS Lite hinge, I'm really wary of her having one of thse. (Her mom is looking to buy it for her.) I'm wondering if the original DS, being larger, is a little more rugged, and if I could still score one used (read: cheap) at one of the used gaming outlets around town. Saw one on gamestop.com for $79, but that seems a bit steep.\nPost by: Geese on January 25, 2008, 03:42:58 PM\nI don't have my original DS anymore, but I don't remember it being any more sturdy than the current DS. Although, Wendy did drop our DS lite and the hinge slightly broke. It still works, but it's off just a bit.\nI'd say just go for whatever you can get cheaper.\nMy DS still has a cracked hinge...actually, a chunk fell out of the hinge on one side. I'm hoping it doesn't cost too much for Nintendo to take care of it for me.\nIf it's within a year of purchase, it should cost nothing. If it's been more than a year, it still might cost nothing, depending on the CSR. My cover story would be that it's my daughter's DS and she hadn't brought it to my attention way back when because she thought I would be mad at her for breaking it, even though I was aware it was a well-known manufactured defect. Had you registered it at Nintendo before?\nPost by: vortech on January 29, 2008, 12:13:18 AM\nhttp://jimhillmedia.com/blogs/jim_hill/archive/2008/01/28/monday-mouse-watch-disney-has-trouble-convincing-guests-to-come-make-a-magic-connection.aspx\nPost by: Rudy on January 29, 2008, 09:06:09 AM\nNo, I haven't registered there. When I hunted around, I could not find anything other than a phone number to contact customer service, and an online \"estimate\" that it would be around $75 to fix. I bought it in August of '06, so it's been almost a year and a half. I may have to schmooze, no? :D\nCuriosity got the best of me, so I called Nintendo. Normally it's $75 for repair, but she offered me $50 to either repair or replace (with a refurb) at their option. It's $85 to purchase a refurb from them. I set up the repair for $50, and will ship it in a few weeks. If I ship it myself, not using their prepaid label, it's only $42.50.\nGuess I'll get it done...I can't play this with the screen floppin' around on me. If I'm lucky, maybe they'll replace it with a refurbed gold Zelda version. :D\nThe DS cartridges need a new feature. They need a \"find me\" signal just like cordless phones. Press a button, and it beeps until you find it.\nI'm in the middle of packing up the house and moving :( , and I have now torn four rooms completely apart and still have yet to find the Nintendogs (dalmatian edition) that got lost in the summer. And I'm sure I'm the one who lost it....my older daughter, one day, sold all of the dogs and bought a new one, basically wiping out everything we had worked on. So I recall taking it and putting it...somewhere. Usually I was putting stuff in the kitchen. And then I checked the computer desk. No go. The furniture has all been checked...twice. Even took the fabric off the bottom of one of the chairs to see if it fell inside. Nada. I'm almost ready to check my pockets in all of my summer clothes, hoping it didn't end up in the laundry.\nI realize they need to make these things small, but...jeez, c'mon, let's put a homing device in these little suckers.\nP.S. I'm also still missing the Kirby game for the GBA. One of 'em lost it, not me...\nMy neighbor tried a micro sdhc card with his new R4DS - no go. He is swapping it out for the regular card - just wanted to let you know that they are not compatible.\nMy DS sure is pissing off my 360. I have been neglecting it so much it officially hates me (http://www.360voice.com/tag/mr%20entr0py) now.\nPost by: Rudy on April 13, 2008, 11:15:19 PM\nHas anyone ever seen an antenna in a DS go bad? My Opera browser was dropping a connection every so often, but I chalked it up to the application. I noticed today while playing Mario Kart with my daughter that my antenna signal indicator was fluctuating yellow and red. And we were sitting four feet away from each other. We didn't lose a connection, but I've never seen it do that before. Still have the broken hinge on mine, and can't afford to get it fixed right now either...this thing might be a basket case from the looks of it. I also think I have a portion on my lower touch screen that isn't reacting as it should...at the very bottom, just a little bit right of center.\nI don't mean to hijack Rudy's question, so please consider mine as well:\nI need linkage to a good DS Lite case. Small form factor, only need to store the system and the charger.\nPost by: mrpig on April 14, 2008, 03:41:55 PM\nQuote from: Bryan on April 14, 2008, 09:18:12 AM\nI still like my case. (http://www.tehbias.com/forum/index.php?topic=437.msg25803#msg25803)\nIt does have three dedicated game slots, but they could easily be ignored. I don't keep the charger in the case but I'm pretty sure it would fit if you weren't storing any games. I could try it out if you think you're interested. Let me know if you have any questions about it.\nI still have this (http://www.amazon.com/Game-Advance-Case-Light-Blue/dp/B00005MAPY/ref=sr_1_32?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1208221814&sr=1-32) case from my GBA days. The DS fits nicely in the padded velcro enclosure and there is ample room for the charger and games in the zippered section.\nYou may need to try ebay, though. I have yet to see a case that I would rather use.\nNot available, so you need to send yours to me Tony.\nSince Tony is sending me one, I only need one more. Does yours have room for the charger?\nI just tried it and the charger fits just fine.\nI've been playing Soul Bubbles lately and it is a pretty cool game. The game play makes good use of the stylus, the graphics are nice and it is really fun to play.\nYou basically blow a bubble around a maze collecting souls. You drag the stylus in the direction you need to bubble to go. You get powers via masks the are activated with the D-pad that allow you to manipulate the bubble, i.e. cut it into smaller bubbles to fit through smaller gaps, create new bubbles, and increase or decrease the amount of air in the bubble.\nSurprisingly fun. I'd recommend checking it out. (http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3163607)\nWell, I went and dunnit now. I left my half-cracked DS on the arm of the recliner, and it got knocked off. :( So now I have a top lid that just dangles by the wires on the side.\nI don't even know if it's worth sending this back to Nintendo. I still may see what they have to say--at the very least, I could talk them into a $50 repair and get back a refurbed unit that I could give to my better half, and keep as a spare.\nI really want to find the gold Zelda DS though. What are my chances of finding one on eBay that is still new in the box? (I've seen a few auctions for these, but some get to astronomical prices.) I've seen replacement cases for the DS, but they are from Hong Kong and probably garbage, no?\nI also wonder what special edition DSes will come along for the holidays.\nPost by: scobeto on August 21, 2008, 08:58:54 PM\nSell the broken one on ebay for parts and use the proceeds to fund a new (or slightly used) one.\nPost by: Failsafe on August 21, 2008, 09:02:02 PM\nAw man, that sucks, Rudy. Yeah, give Nintendo a call and see what they can do for you.\nPost by: Rudy on August 22, 2008, 11:09:32 AM\nMy big problem would be trying to convince Nintendo this was really a gold Zelda edition when I bought it, but that it turned white when I washed it in bleach and hot water with the towels. :D\nI'll probably try Nintendo for the heck of it. When I had the return set up awhile ago (couldn't afford it at the time), we negotiated $50 to repair, or replace if it was a goner. Maybe I'll get lucky and get the same deal again.\nThere is now a Pokemon special edition DS out there, and a Guitar Hero. If these are the special editions for the holidays this year, they are pretty lame. The Pokemon was at Target for $129, but the GH version was $149 or $159.\nStill want a gold Zelda DS (if anyone sees a deal somewhere, let me know :D ), but I'll get my white one fixed (it's totally trashed, the top screen stays white now) if possible, for my better half. We'll probably get her daughter a DS for Xmas this year.\nAt least I can play Animal Crossing on the DS with one screen....it's the only way I can get to sleep at night. :D\n3rd Generation DS out on 11/1 in Japan (http://www.gamespot.com/news/6198455.html?tag=latestheadlines;title;1)\nAnnounced in Japan this morning, the Nintendo DSi will boast a slimmer design, bigger screen sizes, two cameras, and new image and music players. It will also lose the GBA cart slot, but in turn adds an SD memory slot for storing music, images and downloadable content.\nBlack & White models will be available initially.\nThe chassis of the new console measures in at 2.6mm less than the DS Lite--making it 12 percent thinner than its forbear. In turn, the screens have become larger at 3.25 inches, 17 percent bigger than the original 3-inch LCDs. As for the new additions to the console, Nintendo has packed a 3-megapixel camera on the exterior of the case, with another lower-resolution camera on the interior hinge. The cameras integrate with new multimedia features for the DS, with images and music stored to SD card via the new slot, and software on the console to play multimedia content. A new Internet browser will also be installed on the machine, allowing people to browse the Web and the DSi Shop to download games and applications to SD cards.\nThe DS Lite and DSi together.\nThe DSi will launch in Japan on November 1 2008 for \u00a518,900 ($179, \u00a3101). International releases will follow in 2009, but Nintendo Europe would not confirm the rumour on GamesIndustry.biz that the console would launch next spring in the rest of the world.\nPost by: Rudy on October 19, 2008, 02:50:42 PM\nWonder if the Japan DSi will work over here or not. Bet there will be a few on eBay, regardless. I'll miss the GBA slot though--I still play Zelda: Link To The Past quite a bit. :D\nI noticed Clubhouse Games has been re-released at $19.99. And I saw a \"pink ribbon\" DS at Target last week. Still haven't fixed mine yet, but with the hinge completely busted now, I doubt they will even offer to fix it. :( Might have to scrape up enough to get a gold Zelda version on eBay...\nPost by: Splicershock on October 29, 2008, 02:23:00 PM\nSomewhat random, but since I have a bunch of DS owners handy, figured I'd ask...\nAnyways - I was thinking about buying a DS Lite for my mother for Christmas. She likes to sit and play games on her laptop while she watches TV, but her laptop is painfully slow, and I think she gets frustrated with some of the more complicated games (She misses the days of the 2-button NES controllers...)\nAs such, I was wondering if the DS Lite was something she'd like, and be able to use without too much hassle. I know there are some games geared towards the more casual gamer (Brain Age, etc.) but are there enough to justify one of these as a gift for her? Also, I tried using the pen on some surgery game [Under the Knife] and had trouble myself, is it tough to get used to?\nShe loved Zelda growing up, so I was hoping this would provide her the opportunity to enjoy similar games while avoiding the need to learn how to use two thumb-sticks, and 8 buttons on one controller, etc.\nIf she can't use the pen at all you should be careful about which games to get, but otherwise I'd say it's a good idea.\nPost by: Sparkz on October 29, 2008, 03:09:09 PM\nMy wife is not a console gamer, but plays Bejeweled, Snood, Luxor, maybe another casual game on her PC. I got her a DS 2 years ago, and she played Tetris and Disney Meteos non stop. Last Christmas, I gave her Touchmaster. That game has not left the DS since, and she plays it everyday. There are many different kinds of games on that single card, so she's not actually playing the same game over again. She's recently discovered Mahjong. For what its worth, she did not like BrainAge or Nintendogs. I got her a solitaire game, but she hasn't even tried it yet.\nPost by: Splicershock on October 30, 2008, 08:01:00 AM\nThanks guys - appreciate the input.\nI'm sure she could pick up using the pen in most instances - all I know is I couldn't use the syringe in that game to save my life - but then again I never used a DS before either...\nPost by: RuFfNeCk on December 16, 2008, 12:22:01 PM\nPiracy issues aside, does anyone know what the current best DS flash card is? I have an M3 DS Simply, and I'd like to upgrade.\nCycloDS.\nPost by: blackcalx on January 18, 2009, 11:57:25 PM\nI had received $100.00 in Amazon gift cards from a health program at work and decided to treat myself to a new Cobalt/Black DS Lite. I passed my original DS down to my oldest daughter and she's currently in the throes of Pokemon: Pearl (I now understand why my parents always threatened to set a timer when I was playing games). This freed up the Afterburner'd GBA for my son who is currently enjoying my old stock of GB, GB Color and GBA titles.\nThis makes us a 3-DS family since treating my wife to a pink DS Lite after my youngest daughter was born this past summer. It was a gamble as she normally dislikes \"gadgets\" but she's really enjoying it.\nEarly on in the DS years I poo-pooed the idea of screen protectors but the bundle I bought for my wife had a few and so I applied one to my new DS Lite. I was happily surprised to see that they have zero effect on the vibrancy and responsiveness of the touch screen.\nOh, and I know I'm late to the party but what a difference in screens from the Fat to the Lite!\nThe DSi hits tomorrow (4/5). I was temped by Gamestop's $70 DS Lite trade deal until I read flashcarts (http://nintendo.joystiq.com/2008/10/31/dsi-rejects-current-homebrew-flashcarts/) don't work with it. Yet at least.\nAny of you grabbing one?\nThey had a similar deal when the Lite came out that allowed you to get one pretty cheap and I jumped on it.\nI'm sticking with the Lite. I really, really like the Lite. I'd hate to give up the GBA slot and the ability to use this (http://www.shopncsx.com/paddlecontroller.aspx).\nPost by: Rudy on June 23, 2009, 02:38:10 PM\nHas anyone ever seen, or tried, one of these?\nhttp://www.r4i.co.uk/shop/r4/r4-sdhc-card-for-ds-ds-lite-plus-4gb-micro-sdhc-memory-card-r4plus4gb/12311\nQuote from: Rudy on June 23, 2009, 02:38:10 PM\nYeah, I've got one.

The idea of having all my DS games on one cartridge (for trips, and to keep my originals safe) is attractive...although I would lose progress on games if they were saved on the cartridge.\nAre there also emulators to play older game system games on it (like original NES, SNES, N64, Gameboy, etc.)? Just curious...\nQuote from: Bellatrix on June 24, 2009, 06:56:10 AM\nI don't even want to think about how overgrown with weeds my town in Animal Crossing is going to be!

And somehow I got my calendar all messed up: I fixed the date, but didn't realize the year is set to 2010 vs. 2009.\nEmily didn't bring her DSi when we met up the other weekend--she got the blue one. I like the features on it, but I don't really see anything that is a deal maker for me: I have a digital camera, a Zune, etc., but the idea of a built-in browser is attractive (especially if it works better than the Opera DS cartridge I already have, that works fine for browsing \"mobile\" sites).\nPost by: RuFfNeCk on July 01, 2009, 08:05:45 PM\nBuy a CycloDS. Best flashcard on the market for a DSLite.\nQuote from: RuFfNeCk on July 01, 2009, 08:05:45 PM\nLooks interesting. I'll have to read their forums to find out exactly all it can do...\nThe flash carts as as simple as can be. Well, simple if you are obtaining the ROM images from torrent sites or newsgroups. I'll assume for the sake of argument that you own a legit copy, it's a don't ask don't tell policy as far as I'm concerned.\nIf you want to dump your own cartridges I think it's a little bit trickier and I think some of the later ones have various protections that would have to be patched up. And copying save files on/off of the legit cartridges is another thing that is more involved.\nBut if all you are doing is copying a dumped retail game, or homebrew game, or emulator to the DS, all you really do is put the micro SD card in a card reader and drag/drop the .nds files to the card. Put the card back in the flash cart and play. Likewise, the game save files appear on the flash cart and you can drag those back off later to the PC to back them up or save them.\nThanks Mike--that makes sense. I should grab one of those.\nWhat are these \"torrents\" you speak of? ;)\nEmily and I have been playing with some of the DSi features a bit. She loves the camera--she takes a lot of photos, and manipulates them with the onboard software. One other thing it does--it can upload photos directly to Facebook...so I have a few of hers up on my account right now.\nI just bought a 4GB SDHC card for it, but my older reader won't work with it. I'm going to find a cheap reader, and then load all of the music from her MP3 player on it (as AAC files of course). I'll let everyone know how the music player works in it. It is no Zune-killer, but until her Sansa Clip gets fixed (the backlight quit in it :( ), at least she'll have some tunes.\nI compared the Opera game cart for my DS Lite with the downloaded Opera browser for the DSi. It is definitely improved, and MUCH faster. Browsing isn't as tedious, and pages with more content load up much faster now. As I may have mentioned before, I don't use the browser on the DS as a substitute for the computer--instead, I use the mobile versions of most sites in it, which it works quite well with.\nWe've also downloaded an animation studio for the DSi, and also a Brain Age game that is based on art and drawing, which is pretty cool. Downloads are fairly quick, although you often find you have to download a firmware update beforehand.\nDoes the DSi have a higher pixel dimension count than the DS Lite? Some of the basic graphics (such as the DS \"boot screen\") look a bit fuzzy, like when you zoom in on graphics on your computer and they get the \"jaggies\". It's like they are stretching DS content onto a larger screen. Otherwise, it's plenty bright.\nThen again, my eyes are getting worse, so they may need to make a DSs (s = senior edition) that uses dual 15\" LCD monitors hinged in the middle, and a giant crayon of a stylus. :D\nNo kidding! Ordered one and it arrived today. Much cooler interface than the M3 DS Real. Really nice.\nHow's that working out? I haven't bitten yet. Been dumping money into the car on long overdue maintenance, rather than spending it on anything fun. (I did roll over 200,000 miles two weeks ago, though, so I've got that to be thankful for.)\nI've got my eye on the DSi XL. Maybe my hands would not cramp up so much with the larger case, and my lousy eyesight would get some relief. The DSi is noticeably faster in some respects--Emily's Opera browser (free download) smokes the one I have for the DS Lite.\nGuess who had to get bifocals last week?\nDSi XL is tempting but I can't afford the cash right now.\nPost by: Rudy on March 22, 2010, 01:26:14 PM\nI don't have bifocals yet, but certainly need my reading glasses. It's impossible to see any text on the DS without them.\nRe: Launch of New Portable Game Machine\nNintendo Co., Ltd. (Minami-ward of Kyoto-city, President Satoru Iwata) will launch \"Nintendo 3DS\"(temp) during the fiscal year ending March 2011, on which games can be enjoyed with 3D effects without the need for any special glasses.\n\"Nintendo 3DS\"(temp) is going to be the new portable game machine to succeed \"Nintendo DS series\", whose cumulative consolidated sales from Nintendo amounted to 125million units as of the end of December 2009, and will include backward compatibility so that the software for Nintendo DS series, including the ones for Nintendo DSi, can also be enjoyed.\nNOT official but nikkei says\n- 3D Stick\n- vibration pack\n- tilt sensor under decision\n- wireless connection speed up\n- battery life up\n- smaller than 4\" screen\nhttp://www.nikkei.com/tech/news/arti...E2E2E2E2E2E2E2\nQuote from: IGN\nSony fans should not expect a 3D PSP announcement anytime soon.\nIn an interview with IGN, SCEA's Director of Hardware and Marketing John Koller said the company is only focusing on the 3D console space right now.\n\"Our focus on 3D right now is on the console,\" he said. \"There's a tremendous amount of opportunity on PlayStation 3 with 3D. The amount of interest in 3D from the retail side and game publishers is off the charts. We know we have a hit with 3D on PS3 and we're going to concentrate our efforts there.\"\nKoller also questioned today's announcement of the Nintendo 3DS, saying he wasn't sure if there is a market for 3D handheld gaming with a younger audience.\n\"I think it remains to be seen where Nintendo goes with 3D on a portable,\" he added. \"Having been in the portable space for quite awhile, I think it's an interesting move but one I'd like to see where they go from a demographic standpoint. 8 and 9 year olds playing 3D is a little bit of a stretch given where some of our research is right now.\"\nPost by: Beer Monkey on August 03, 2010, 03:14:44 PM\nThe 3DS launches in Feb in Japan for about $298 American. That's about $100 more than I hoped it would be :(\n$249.99. (http://www.nintendo.com/3ds)\nI dorked up the touch screen in the process and had to order a new one of those.

        "raw_content": "Monday, Mothering and Ministry\nI didn\u2019t get a daybook post up on Monday. I really did try, but it was one of those days and I just couldn\u2019t get my head into blogging. Actually, it\u2019s still not totally into it today either.\nI may not survive potty training Camo. Yes, I know, I\u2019m exaggerating horribly with that statement, but that\u2019s how I feel quite frequently these days. We\u2019ve been through this twice before with the two oldest. But any parent of more than one child can tell you that what works for one doesn\u2019t necessarily work for the others. I\u2019ve done a lot of laundry over the past few days.\nAdded to that, the Little Guy has been rather fussy too. I don\u2019t know if he\u2019s possibly teething (there is so much drool) or just going through a stage. In either case, he wants to be held all the time.\nMotherhood is not always conducive to regular blogging. It\u2019s also very discouraging some days. I read something on a friend\u2019s blog Monday afternoon that encouraged me though.\n\u201cKIDS MATTER SO MUCH THAT THE JOB OF RAISING THEM IS A GIFT AND A CALLING. BEING A WIFE AND MOTHER IS A MINISTRY IN AND OF ITSELF. IT IS NOT A SIDE PURSUIT OR BURDEN OR SOMETHING WE DO BECAUSE WE MUST. IT IS SOMETHING WE DO BECAUSE THE GOD OF THE UNIVERSE HAS CALLED US TO DO IT. EVERY DIAPER WE CHANGE, EVERY MESS WE CLEAN UP, EVERY BOO-BOO WE KISS, EVERY MEAL WE PREPARE, EVERY LOAD OF LAUNDRY WE WASH AND FOLD\u2026 EVERY LITTLE, TINY THING WE DO TO SERVE OUR FAMILY IS IMPORTANT, SIGNIFICANT, AND MEANINGFUL.\u201d \u2013 Mandy at What I Wish I Could Say (I highly recommend her blog!)\nGod used Mandy\u2019s blog to remind me of something very important: The nitty-gritty un-glamorous side of mothering has value in the eyes of God. It really is a calling from Him! Mothering my children (even when it is incredibly difficult) is my act of service to others and to God.\nOur society tells us that just being a Mom isn\u2019t enough. That it\u2019s just menial labor that anyone could do and that any woman with half a brain is wasting it on raising kids. When we listen to them, we start to believe that what we do isn\u2019t really important. We feel like we aren\u2019t really contributing anything. We get discouraged. We feel pressured to find something \u201cmeaningful\u201d to do. We buy into the lie. Because that\u2019s what it is A LIE!\nThis really is the work that God has called me to. I lose sight of that fact far too often. Sometimes it\u2019s teaching my kids Biblical principles, and sometimes it\u2019s mopping the bathroom floor. But it\u2019s all important. It\u2019s all ministry.\n2 Replies to \u201cMonday, Mothering and Ministry\u201d\nYou just gave me a whole lot of encouragement. And I\u2019m blessed that I could encourage you! I know the potty training thing can be tough \u2013 my older son didn\u2019t train until he was four. Praying for that whole process with your son and that you have the strength you need to endure \u2013 especially with that adorable baby fella wanting to be held all the time! Wish I lived nearby and could give you a hand.\nThanks for sharing Teisha! It encouraged me too!\nPrevious PostPrevious Heritage\nNext PostNext Because He Holds My Hand",

It emphasizes increasing the supply of highly-skilled workers to drive the economy, as well as helping low-income states catch up with their more advanced neighbours.\nThe Project will be implemented through the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) of the Government of India as a Central Sector Scheme (CSS), wherein 100% funds will be provided as grants to the States, Institutions& ATUs.\nThe funding pattern details with respect to Government funded, Government aided institutions and ATUs are given in Section 6.\nA set of Government orders for States and UTs is to be issued to achieve a high and sustained impact of the Project. These orders are to give the project institutions adequate decision making powers that will enable and encourage them to deliver quality education and undertake research in an efficient manner. The primary focus is to increase empowerment of institutions for self-governance and create incentives for achieving excellence in engineering education.\nThe project institutions will be required to implement academic and non-academic reforms within their self-conceived development programmes that focus on quality and relevance, excellence, resource mobilization, greater institutional autonomy with accountability, research and equity.\nProfessional development programmes for engineering-education policy planners, administrators and implementers at the Central, State and University levels will beorganized. The Project will also support development of more efficient governance activities.\nThe Project will lay major emphasis on monitoring and evaluation. The prime responsibility of monitoring will lie with the institutions themselves. The management structure at the Institutional level\ni.e. the Board of Governors (BoG) along with Head of the institution will monitor the progress of Institutional projects on a regular basis and provide guidance for improving the performance of institution in project implementation. The information from project institutions will be collected through a scalable web-based Management Information System (MIS). State Governments will also regularly monitor and evaluate the progress of institutions. The Government of India and the World Bank will conduct bi-annual Joint Reviews of the Project with assistance from the National Project Implementation Unit (NPIU). The monitoring will be based on Institutional Development Proposals (IDPs) and Action Plans for ATUs prepared by each project institution and achievements will be measured through a set of performance indicators. The monitoring will focus on implementation of reforms by institutions, achievements in project activities under different sub-components, procurement of resources and services, utilization of financial allocations and achievements in faculty and staff development and management development activities.\nIn the project, the technical assistance to AICTE is planned which will include designing an assessment system to track student learning at different points of the undergraduate program. Surveys of students, faculty, non-teaching staff and administrators will deepen insight into how institutes address specific problems related to student learning. Assessments will be designed to provide feedback to institutes on how and where to improve, without putting undue pressure on students.\nIn this project, the fund will be linked to the Disbursement Linked Indicators (DLIs) and will be disbursed only after achieving and verification of some of the indicators.",

        "raw_content": "Interview: Omarion\nPhotographer JAKE MICHAELS\nFor Omarion,\nFormer B2K frontman and teeny bopper heartthrob Omarion was only signed to Maybach Music for a matter of weeks before he had the words \u201cMaybach O\u201d tattooed onto his hand last summer. It was an especially bold move for someone who two years prior had aligned with another rap crew, Young Money\u2014a partnership that ended before any music was released. The singer, though, has never had a problem finding work, be it as a sturdy hook man for likeminded rappers or a purveyor of gritty, slow-burning love songs like 2012\u2019s \u201cMIA.\u201d Currently preparing his first album in three years, the flagship R&B singer of one of the most respected brands in rap talks to us about how despite all the success he\u2019s seen, the best is yet to come.\nWhere are you now, musically? If B2K was eighth grade and after B2K was freshman year, now I\u2019ve graduated from high school and I\u2019m in real life. Back in the day it was like, I got a great record from a great producer and writer and it\u2019s a hit single, so let\u2019s sing it. But it\u2019s different when you\u2019re really living out your lyrics. This album is that. We\u2019re playing around with the new album title\u2014we\u2019ll probably change it, cause there\u2019s a movie with the same name\u2014but the core idea is Love and Other Drugs: the infatuation, the euphoric feeling of liking someone. A woman inspiring you to act differently and feel differently\u2014it\u2019s similar to a drug. This album is focused on that feeling.\nHow was it that you fell in with another band of rappers at Maybach Music? I ended up going to a strip club with friends and somebody was like, Rozay is here. So I was like, Lemme go say what\u2019s up. I told him, I\u2019m bout to sign this deal and I would love to do a record with you. He said, Before you do that, let\u2019s have a conversation. The next day we got on the horn. He was like, I\u2019m a big fan of what you\u2019ve done and I\u2019ve been watching you; we need to do this. I was just like, well, what\u2019s winning right now? What was winning was the Young Moneys, the Maybach Musics\u2014the camps. So I thought his idea was great. Literally two weeks later, it was a done deal.\nDoes being a part of a camp change the way you approach music? I\u2019m inspired to be more tedious and take my time. The camaraderie here is immense. Coming from B2K, I understand the importance of camaraderie. If you have that, it could mean a lot. It\u2019s like the Lakers.\nWhen R&B singers hang around rappers, they tend to develop a rap aesthetic and often end up rapping themselves. You\u2019ve mostly avoided that, though. I actually started out as a rapper, and rap has been a big influence on what I do in some of the cadences. But rapping kind of became a fad among singers and took away from why we\u2019re special. The guys that I look up to\u2014Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder\u2014were always in touch with an emotion that is familiar to every man: the emotion of love for a woman. That\u2019s what I do. Even if you might catch me in a cipher, I\u2019m just playing.\nAre you still growing as an artist? Every day. I think you get into these age pockets where you create, and I\u2019m in an age pocket where I can have that album. I believe Michael was around 28 when he was doing Dangerous and coming off Thriller. Twenty-eight is a very special age, then the next special age is 35, almost like in the 40 range. That\u2019s when people like the Pharrells, the Puffys, really started.\nAre you looking forward to getting old? Not old, but more seasoned.

        "raw_content": "Fangs Done Right: Vampires in Korean Dramas\nSaturday, August 22, 2015 / The Fangirl Initiative / 3 comments\n'Scholar Who Walks at Night' manhwa page\nI have a thing for vampires. However, the phrase 'a thing' can be interpreted many different ways. When I say I have 'a thing' for them, it means they fascinate me. I'm interested in their mythology, in the different ways they're interpreted, in their symbolism. Usually, I'm unhappy with how they're portrayed. Either their vampirism is considered heroic, treated flippantly, or the mythology is just ridiculous. (Vampires do not sparkle, and they don't crack like porcelain when they're killed.) While my 'thing' for vampires frequently disturbs my mother, she's still willing to discuss them with me (and I came by it honestly. My dad slept in a coffin in college and kept a pet bat). Conversations ranging from their spiritual symbolism to whether or not it's practical for them to 'drain' someone (it isn't) are a fairly common occurrence, as several of my novels include vampires of different kinds.\nHowever, when it comes to reading vampires in entertainment, they usually bother me. The subject of vampirism isn't treated with respect or seriousness, and is frequently seen as more of a super power than a curse. It's drinking blood, people. This is usually considered a bad thing.\nA months ago I watched Vampire Prosecutor, a Korean drama about Prosecutor Min (Yeon Jung-Hoon), a detective-lawyer who happens to be a vampire. I'm always wary when approaching vampire entertainment, but I had heard many good things about the show. Imagine my pleasant surprise - no, my pleasant shock - when I saw the way the show handled vampires. It wasn't even a 'vampire show,' technically, despite the name - it was a procedural. It was Criminal Minds, where the main character happened to be a vampire. This show knocked the Vampire Diaries vampires into the dirt, because the show did not sacrifice morals or blur right and wrong for the sake of its main character.\nProsecutor Min was bitten and transformed years ago, and his vampirism gives him a special ability - he can look at a crime scene and 'replay' the last few seconds of what happened, to some extent, in his mind. This makes him invaluable, of course, but that isn't all - if he tastes blood from the victim, he can see snatches of their memories, giving him clues toward solving their murder. This show does not dance around the subject with kid gloves. Min despises the act of drinking blood, especially from murder victims - and, in fact, the act of doing so has highly unpleasant after-effects that he dreads. He has made rules for himself - he never drinks blood from a living person, no matter how tempted he is. In fact, in the first episode, he finds a man who murdered a little girl. The man deserves to die - horribly, in fact, for what he did; and Min gets very close to killing the man himself. However, after a struggle, he doesn't touch the man and instead prosecutes him, landing him in jail for life.\nThe show impressed me on many levels, because it didn't make sacrifices or 'cover' for the main character's condition.\nRecently, a sageuk (historical drama) started that I'd been looking forward to for months - Scholar Who Walks at Night. The story centers around royal scholar Sung-Yeol, after he discovers that the palace is actually being run by Gwi - an evil vampire who takes the king's concubines as tributes and destroys anyone who disobeys him. Sung-Yeol is bitten by a dying vampire hunter (who happens to be a vampire hunter) - and before the hunter dies, he tells Sung-Yeol that he is curing him with this existence because he believes he's a good man, and Gwi is an evil one no human can destroy.\nThe show gives us two very different vampires - an intriguing but selfish vampire with no value for human life, and an ordinary man who plans to kill himself once he destroys evil. He views himself as a 'lesser' evil and lives as cleanly as he can, but struggles constantly with what he is and whether it's worth living like this in order to save the country from a greater evil.\nI love both of these shows. Good is good, and evil is evil - although the characters have beautiful depth. The issues of right and wrong are not danced around or smudged like in most Western television - instead they're debated in the open. In fact, they're frequently the whole point of the show.\nWhere Western television fails, South Korean television does not - and if you're looking for a story with vampires and a strong moral compass, I highly recommend these two.\nWhat about you? Do you have a problem with most vampire portrayal? Have you thought about it, or do you usually dislike the idea of vampires completely?\nKDramas, Korean, Mirriam Neal, vampires\nThe topic of this post doesn't surprise me, but the content does! This is amazing! Western films certainly do blur the lines of what's clearly morally okay or not (don't offend anyone, please! Depending on the lenses you put on, murder is /okay/! Don't judge!). The more I learn about Korean culture through the media, the more I respect and admire them.\nThanks for loving this culture enough to share it with us. ^_^ It humanizes other parts of the world and I love that.\nElizabeth Anne D. August 23, 2015 at 6:43 PM\n*adds these shows to my to watch list* I usually dislike the idea of vampires altogether, but these shows sound really intriguing! I can't wait to watch them.\nAndres Micheal March 24, 2016 at 11:55 PM",

        "title": "A Reluctant Atlas: Wentworth Miller's Struggle With Depression ~ The Fangirl Initiative",
        "raw_content": "A Reluctant Atlas: Wentworth Miller's Struggle With Depression\nThursday, May 19, 2016 / The Fangirl Initiative / 3 comments\nBy Danielle Campitelli\nTrigger warning: This post deals heavily on the topic of depression.\nYou may know him as Leonard Snart, aka Captain Cold, on both the CW\u2019s The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow, or you may know him as Michael Scofield in Prison Break (soon to return for a mini-series!). But last month, the world knew him briefly as \u201cthat guy who got made fun of for being fat.\u201d Wentworth Miller, the actor who brings those roles to life, had a brief moment of infamy when \u201cThe LAD Bible\u201d posted an attempt at a meme on their Facebook page (they have since deleted the post and apologized) which pictured two photos of Miller: one from promotional photos for Prison Break and one presumably after the show finished. The post pretty much backfired for the group when Miller was made aware and posted his response to the meme. (This is the link in case you would like to read it on your own.)\nHe prefaced by saying that this wasn\u2019t the first time something like this has happened to him and moved into a very touching and frank outline of what his life was like when the second photo was taken in 2010: \u201cI was suicidal\u2026 I suffered in silence\u2026 I considered myself damaged goods.\u201d Not for the first time, Miller was going through a time of depression. The negative comments were about a photo that was taken at a time when he was feeling \u201cat the lowest point in [his] adult life,\u201d but had found a moment to smile. That moment was then turned into something less positive by the paparazzi that had taken the photo. \u201cNews\u201d outlets seized the opportunity to make terrible puns based on his physical changes after the end of Prison Break. Fortunately, when that picture resurfaced in March, he was able to address what happened and stand up for himself, but there are some people who can\u2019t, and even more people who wouldn\u2019t know how to respond to misinformation about similar situations. Have you ever really looked at what depression is? How many diagnosable symptoms are you aware of? Have you ever met someone who has stated that they battle with this illness on a day-to-day basis? I\u2019m not asking these questions out of a desire to make you feel bad about any misconceptions you may have but to bring light to the larger issue that Wentworth Miller addressed in his post.\nDepression is a word that gets thrown around a lot in our society and even in our fandoms, but I wonder how many of those who use the word really understand what depression actually feels like and what some of the clinical definitions are. I hope to answer some of the questions you may have. The tool used to define and diagnose mental illnesses in the United States is called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. The fifth and most recent edition was published in 2013 so it\u2019s commonly abbreviated as DSM-5. Within the DSM-5, there are 20 different categories of diagnostic criteria for mental disorders that vary from depressive, personality, and eating disorders to lesser-known schizophrenia spectrum, dissociative, and conduct disorders. Each individual disorder has a list of diagnostic criteria as well as features of the disorder and things like gender-related issues, risk factors, and comorbidity. When someone talks about depression as a chronic illness, it could be one of eight different depressive disorders, but usually people are referring to Major Depressive Disorder. Now, I don\u2019t assume to know exactly what Wentworth Miller has gone through, but having read some of the things that he has written about his depression, I believe that this disorder is the most likely.\nBefore we really get into what MDD is though, I think it\u2019s important to also point out that in order to be clinically diagnosed with a mental illness, any of the symptoms an individual experiences must inhibit normal functioning (personality disorders are another issue that we may deal with at another time), which can vary from culture to culture. This means that although people frequently feel as though they \u201care OCD\u201d because they like things to be orderly or have a few rituals in their lives, a person would not be formally diagnosed if they did not have a noticeable negative affect on their lives because of the rituals. This is just one example, but I think it gets the point across. So, what is Major Depressive Disorder?\nClinically speaking, a person must exhibit at least five symptoms for at least two consecutive weeks that cause a noticeable change in functioning. One of these must be either depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure. There are nine possibilities, which also include unintentional weight loss or gain, change in sleep, fatigue or loss of energy, indecisiveness, and feelings of guilt or worthlessness. Some things that you may assume are symptoms of depression aren\u2019t on this list, like lack of motivation. This is mainly because something like low motivation can be attributed to some of the other symptoms, like loss of interest, hypersomnia, and fatigue. And then there are things like panic attacks, trouble relaxing, and feelings of impending doom that many people assume are part of depression. Clinically speaking though, these would be attributed to some sort of anxiety disorder. As you may know, depression and anxiety disorders often go hand in hand. According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), about 50% of people who are diagnosed with an anxiety disorder will also be diagnosed with depression, so it is understandable that people mix up the symptoms of these two illnesses. But what does it feel like?\nIf you have ever experienced feeling depressed, then you have some idea of what it\u2019s like dealing with depression as a chronic illness. But for those of you who haven\u2019t, let me give you a little insight:\nThere are some days when you don\u2019t want to get out of bed, so you don\u2019t. There are some days where you don\u2019t want to shower, so you don\u2019t. There are even some days where you don\u2019t feel like saying a single word, so you don\u2019t. I will not say that those are the \u201ceasy choices\u201d because sometimes choosing not to do anything is not even a choice. And not in the, \u201cOh that decision was so easy to make that there really was no choice\u201d way, but in the way that you have had everything sucked out of you that, really, the only thing you were aware of doing was realizing that you didn\u2019t want to get out of bed. Nothing matters enough to even go through the kind of thinking making choices entails. Everything just\u2026 is. You can pass a whole day being a passive object that has no noticeable effect on the environment you are in and not letting the environment affect you either. It\u2019s sort of a clich\u00e9, but it\u2019s like those movie scenes where one person is still and everything keeps moving on around them. Time passes but seems insignificant all at the same time. I cannot express to you how exactly all of these things feel because they don\u2019t. How can you describe true numbness and nothingness?\nI feel these things on almost an everyday basis, and I consider myself lucky because of that \u201calmost.\u201d There are some people who feel that absolute despair and detachment simultaneously on an everyday basis, and still they move forward. Sometimes that is not a choice they make but simply something that happens to them and that\u2019s ok. For Wentworth Miller, his way of coping after finishing Prison Break was food and shows about food: \u201cBut eating became the one thing I could look forward to. Count on to get me through. There were stretches when the highlight of my week was a favorite meal and a new episode of TOP CHEF. Sometimes that was enough. Had to be.\u201d Depression is a very complicated disease that sears itself into your brain and empties out your heart. It skews your priorities and warps your sense of self. You carry the weight of a world you don\u2019t care about on your shoulders, a reluctant Atlas. I wish I could say that there was always someone waiting to take that weight off your shoulders so that you can take a few moments to cry from a sorrow you cannot name, but that isn\u2019t always the case. Sometimes, Atlas has to pull himself up.\nI can\u2019t fully express how much I admire Wentworth Miller. Even moving forward with this paragraph has resulted in many \u201cpacing breaks.\u201d At the end of his post, he reclaims the meaning behind those photos: \u201cLike a dandelion up through the pavement, I persist. Anyway. Still. Despite.\u201d That second photo of him in the red shirt now serves him of a reminder of the things he has overcome. If you get the chance, please take a few minutes out of your day and read some of the notes he publishes on Facebook. This man has a depth of understanding that I would venture to say most people only dream of. He has incredibly frank and heart-stirring accounts of his experiences that are beautifully written. I will admit that I strongly suspect that part of the admiration I feel for him is tied closely with his portrayal of Leonard Snart and my affection for that character, but there is no denying that it was Wentworth Miller who offered up that feeling of camaraderie I feel with Snart. Sure, I\u2019m a huge fan of the sarcasm that each line he speaks is practically dripping with, and I have not missed the incredible coincidence that \u201cSnart\u201d on its own sounds like a reaction to a snarky comment. But as anyone who has ever reached that level of sass can tell you, there\u2019s usually more going on behind the tone than other people realize. Miller\u2019s ability to deal with an illness like depression while simultaneously providing wonderful performances of a character who has enough problems of his own is absolutely incredible, in my opinion.\nDepression is really a debilitating illness. Many, but not all, people have suicidal thoughts, which can make it hard to talk to the people who care about you because of the thoughts you have that you daren\u2019t share with anyone. And it\u2019s here that I make the old, but necessary plea: If you or someone you know is experiencing suicidal thoughts, please seek help immediately. This doesn\u2019t always mean calling a hotline (thought that is always an option). Sometimes help can look like keeping your friend on the phone until they fall asleep, or if you live close, going to their house and having a sleepover. But what is important to remember is that once the night has passed, you need to seek professional help. Suicidal thoughts are very serious, and even though you might feel better after your night-long Marvel movie marathon, those thoughts are probably going to come back. Please, find someone qualified who can help you work through the difficulties you are having. If you don\u2019t want anyone knowing about it, you can always go incognito in your browser and search for therapists in your area. Even talking to your general physician is a good place to start because they will most likely have a list of providers and pertinent information. Unless you are under 18, no one but you and your doctor will know about your conversation. If you are under 18, I believe that you can request to keep the information between you and your doctor, but that will only be agreed upon if your doctor has no reason to fear for your safety (Don\u2019t take this to mean that you should underscore the severity of your feelings. Honest is the safest thing.) If need be, find people like Wentworth Miller that you can look to for inspiration. Throughout the month of April, he posted daily \u201cself-care\u201d activities he participated in, which may help you find similar things in your own life. At the end of the post that prompted this informal essay, he also provides some links about suicide prevention both in the US and internationally. I highly suggest you take a look at these and learn more about what you can do to prevent suicides. I am also recommending a few sites that have shown up in my psychology studies at college.\nThank you for reading, and remember that you can make a difference.\nWentworth Miller's links:\nwww.activeminds.org\nwww.iasp.info\nDanielle's links:\nSuicide Prevention Hotline: toll free at 1-800-273-TALK\nwww.twloha.com\nAbout Danielle Campitelli\nDanielle Campitelli is a 21-year old Ravenclaw INFJ who considers herself a person of varying interests. You can find her reading mostly fantasy/sci-fi (she was raised on Star Trek: The Next Generation, so what can you do?), but she also enjoys classics like The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Scarlet Letter. Becoming an anglophile was prompted by Peter Pan and The Chronicles of Narnia. Since she just finished undergrad, she\u2019s biding her time until moving to the UK for a year to get a master\u2019s in linguistics. If you want to make her happy, just sit her down with Captain America: The Winter Soldier and some ice cream and she will be okay. Maybe some tea too. (She has a special place in her heart for broken and wounded characters.)\nFavorite quotation: \u201cIpsa est qui sequitur luce stellarum.\u201d (She is the one who follows the light of the stars.)\nFavorite Characters: Sam Winchester, Loki, Thranduil, Merlin, Puddleglum, Prince Zuko, the Winter Soldier/Bucky Barnes, Levi, the list goes on and on\u2026\nDanielle Campitelli, depression, guest posts, mental illness, Wentworth Miller\nKatherine Sophia May 19, 2016 at 6:50 PM\nThe most recent statistics I saw were 20% of people will have an episode of depression before age 18 - thanks for this post. This is so important, and people need to be aware.\nnatskee May 20, 2016 at 5:56 PM\nIt is also beneficial to know that in many states, teenagers can see a therapist for a certain number of sessions before they need consent from their parents. Therapists, doctors and teachers are mandated reporters of safety concerns regarding abuse, homicidality, and suicidality. Many (if not most) adolescent therapists will not break confidentiality with you unless there is a safety concern, regardless of whether you are under 18 or not. So if you want to talk about how much you hate your parents, sound off. They may have to share a diagnosis for insurance purposes, but the content of your sessions stays between you and them.\nAs your cousin, a therapist, and a mild fangirl, I really appreciate this article.\nThank you for the extra information! It means a lot that you appreciate the article, especially as a therapist.",

        "raw_content": "Junior Alec Hegg went on a hike in the Pyrenees, one of several excursions that the Knox in Barcelona Program takes during Fall Term. (Photo Courtesy of Alec Hegg)\nFor the duration of Fall Term, junior Alec Hegg has been seeing sights across Spain. Hegg joined the Knox Barcelona program with an interest in seeing the dynamic between the locals of Barcelona and the government in the year following the independence referendum, when the significant majority of voting citizens voted for Catalonia to become its own nation apart from Spain.\n\u201cI thought it would be a really cool experience because you got such a different cultural background going on here in Catalonia, especially with the whole political situation going on now,\u201d Hegg said. \u201cEverywhere you go, you can\u2019t walk along any street in the city without seeing at least one banner for independence.\u201d\nExpressions of the Catalan independence movement have additionally been presented to Hegg in the form of protests and rallies. Arriving Sept. 1, he has lived in Barcelona during major city holidays throughout the last month, such as the National Day of Catalonia, the festival of La Merc\u008e, and the anniversary of the independence referendum on Oct. 1. While the Catalan language is prevalent across the region, Hegg stated that he hasn\u2019t experienced much of a language barrier.\n\u201cThe basic situation is that most people will know both Catalan and Castilian Spanish but they\u2019ll have one that they prefer speaking,\u201d Hegg said. \u201cA lot of times if two people are in a conversation, it might start in Catalan, and then switch to Castilian but if you make it clear that you really don\u2019t understand Catalan, everyone has some level of Spanish that they can reply to you with.\u201d\nJunior Alec Hegg poses in front of the Royal Palace in Madrid (Photo Courtesy of Alec Hegg)\nThe Barcelona participants have been able to see other aspects of Spain outside of Catalonia through a trip to the Pyrenees, where they were able to stay in a pueblo hostel with a more rural backdrop. Additionally, Hegg took a weekend trip to the city of Madrid with a friend where he experienced how different the culture was within a short distance in the same country. An evident difference between Barcelona and Madrid was which football (soccer) team locals support, both cities being home to famous rivals FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively.\n\u201cSomeone from here in Barcelona explained it to me in a way that I thought was pretty funny,\u201d Hegg said. \u201c\u2018Sure there are differences in region and culture and language, but the biggest difference is football.\u2019\u201d\nTraveling has been one of Hegg\u2019s favorite elements of his stay thus far. Along with being able to hold intelligent conversation in Spanish, he hopes to visit areas such as Toledo, Seville and Galicia before the end of his stay.\nJunior Cara Chang poses in front of a church in Prague. (Photo Courtesy of Cara Chang)\nHaving never been to Europe, junior Cara Chang has immensely appreciated the first month of her term in Prague, Czech Republic. In the past, Chang has travelled significantly in other portions of the world. The Prague program has not only enabled her to visit a continent she hasn\u2019t yet explored, but has also allowed her to take classes for her International Relations major and Gender and Women\u2019s Studies minor. She expressed that her current learning environment lacks more progressive perspectives which she is accustomed to at Knox.\n\u201cIn my Gender and Women\u2019s Studies class [in Prague] the views are more traditional \u2014 I got so used to American liberalism and that kind of education, that I wasn\u2019t used to the more traditional education I\u2019m getting here,\u201d Chang said. \u201cThings are not as liberal as Knox and sometimes it\u2019s really frustrating.\u201d\nWhile she values the educational aspect of study abroad, Chang is primarily focused on letting her term abroad catapult her personal growth. She admitted while she enjoys the program and the members in it, she hasn\u2019t been engaging with locals in Prague as much as she\u2019d imagined.\n\u201cI think it can be hard to get out of your circle because everyone in this program other than me is American and when we go out in groups, we\u2019re all speaking in English. We barricade ourselves together,\u201d Chang said. \u201cCzech people are very polite and reserved, so they\u2019re not going to reach out.\u201d\nChang has already planned a way to reach the Czech outside of her program group. She has arranged to volunteer in a program called Czech Friendly, established to help mitigate negative public stigma around immigrants in the Czech Republic. While volunteering, she will focus on interviewing owners of native cuisine restaurants around Prague.\n\u201cWe interview immigrants who have started restaurants, we write articles about them and publish them online to help battle xenophobia and help Czech people overcome that \u2018anti-immigrants\u2019 sort-of attitude,\u201d said Chang. \u201cI\u2019m gonna be interviewing people and writing about their stories, like story-telling.\u201d\nChang is looking forward to getting to know more citizens of Prague and visiting more European cities such as Berlin in the coming months.\nAllie Glinski\nTags: barcelona culture Spain study abroad\nCaxton 360 showcases faculty work\nKnox boxing packs emotional punch March 7, 2018\nReview: Black Panther brings diversity to Marvel February 21, 2018\nMSAC discusses plans for Day of Dialogue February 14, 2018\nStudents express room for improvement in I-Fair February 14, 2018",

        "raw_content": "Winter webinar \u2013 Designing for Urban Resilience\nIt is difficult to design for a destructive event of unknown magnitude before it happens. There are just too many variables. If you can\u2019t quantify the problem, how can you design the solution?\nThere are at least two ways to reduce those variables: one is to design for a specific threat, (for instance flooding or earthquake); the other is to design for the system (e.g. food or transport), rather than the threat. This session will focus on consideration of the latter.\nAn urban system\u2019s resilience is complex, open-ended and messy. While all cities share certain characteristics, each city has evolved in ways specific to its landscape. This evolution provides a key to its vulnerabilities, and also its adaptive opportunities.\nWhen designing for a system, you\u2019re not interested so much in strengthening a system but rather in enabling or encouraging a collaborative or improvised response to a wide range of disturbances that can also stimulate innovations with benefits to our everyday lives.\nPresenter Victoria University Landscape Architect Martin Bryant has been researching urban resilience since 2007 with his research partner Professor Penny Allan.\nTheir research has included extensive studies into the influences of urban morphology on recovery in earthquake affected cities, and design research into the opportunities for pre-disaster planning in New Zealand.\nWhen: Friday September 18, 12:00 \u2013 1:30pm",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Donor Spotlight \u2013 Leo S. Guthman Fund\nThresholds Statement on Governor Rauner\u2019s State of the State Address 2017 \u2192\nChicago, IL \u2013 Recently, United States Attorney General Loretta Lynch announced the findings of a 13-month Department of Justice civil rights investigation of the Chicago Police Department (CPD). The investigation concluded that CPD\u2019s training for use of force and its accountability practices are inadequate and violate the constitutional rights of citizens.\nThresholds clients, like many people who are living with serious mental illnesses, can experience mental health or substance use crises that sometimes involve police, on whom we too often rely to play a role in the mental health system that is best performed by a clinician or social worker. We know that those in crisis do not always receive fair treatment and access to the help they need. We agree that there is urgent need for the CPD to undergo broad reform and implement training that equips officers and dispatchers to better handle these crises. Our clinical staff are always more comfortable when a Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) officer is the responder for the calls we need to make. We have seen time and time again what a difference is made for clients when they get this care. Trauma is reduced, the officers work collaboratively with our team, and the individual is better connected to future treatment. This is the model of CIT \u2013 community partnership, advocacy, and training.\nWe support efforts to create a stand-alone mental health unit within the CPD to support the growth and expansion of CIT training, among other possibilities. We spent the last year participating in the work of the Mayor\u2019s Mental Health Steering committee, and we will continue to support this work to promote foundational change in the way behavioral health concerns are handled.\nThresholds wants to support law enforcement efforts by calling for models that reduce utilization of the police for behavioral health crises while providing them greater tools to perform their duties. To this end, we call on the City to invest in co-responder and post-response efforts that have had success in other major cities like Los Angeles and Denver. These innovative programs partner police with trained mental health responders, allowing both parties to do the jobs they are best trained to do. Co-responder models allow police hours of additional time to do patrol and other police work, save lives, and reduce frequency of the crisis calls. The CPD can also invest in a dedicated Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team to target high-frequency users of police intervention to help stabilize symptoms. ACT is an evidence-based treatment modality designed to serve individuals with the most significant mental health needs. We are dedicated to exploring these models, and we call on the CPD to prioritize them.\nBut most importantly, we need greater investment in our community treatment safety net. We should not rely on the police to staff our City\u2019s mental health and substance use response. We need the City and state to invest in community treatment services. We need to continue to build connections between providers and law enforcement, hospitals and emergency rooms, and the justice system.\nWe know what works \u2013 we need continued investment and effort from our City government and the CPD to get it done. Thresholds remains ready to keep partnering with them to ensure that everyone gets the mental health and substance use treatment they need and deserve.\nThis entry was posted in News and tagged behavioral health, chicago police department, CIT, crisis intervention team, department of justice, mental health, mental illness, news, police.

        "raw_content": "Remember tornado victims during giving season\nT-R PHOTO BY ADAM SODDERS - Much of the northeast Marshalltown area is still marked by twisted and broken trees, many of the neighborhoods dotted with blue tarps to keep the elements at bay. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) officials decided not to grant individual assistance funding to Marshalltown residents last week \u00d1 that decision may impact the uninsured and underinsured people hit by the tornado.\nNovember and December tend to be a time of giving and generosity. People make philanthropic donations, volunteer their time, give food items and initiate supply drives. So many organizations in our communities are worthy of donations as they work on any variety of issues to help those less fortunate than us.\nThis year, we need to keep all those impacted by the tornado in mind. We\u2019ve all learned that recovery is hard-fought and will take time. While much has changed since July 19, homes and businesses are still gone and many people are still suffering. If you are able, give to a cause that\u2019s helping tornado victims.\nThere are several organizations working to help victims. Some of the most prominent funding drives include Mid-Iowa Community Action, United Way, the Community Foundation of Marshall County and the Marshalltown Central Business District. The House of Compassion, Salvation Army and the Emergency Food Box all collect food or supplies. There are many, many other organizations and groups helping out and you should have no trouble finding a way to help whether that\u2019s through money, item donations or giving of your time.\nAt this time of year, many families are also setting a budget for the upcoming year. Remember to budget for philanthropy rather than giving as an afterthought. When you budget for philanthropic efforts, it\u2019s easier to eliminate some of the extra materials we get for ourselves that we don\u2019t really need.\nConsider giving up some of your clothes that you no longer wear. Maybe grab a couple of extra food goods when you\u2019re shopping that you can donate. Consider eliminating some or all of gift giving during the year to give to those who need it.\nLet\u2019s continue to be Marshalltown Strong in tornado recovery efforts and give to those who need it.",

        "raw_content": "Senior Musings #2 May 2011\nCats and Songbirds\nSpring not only brings flowers, but the return of songbirds. Many of us delight in watching them build their nests, and fill our feeders so we can observe them from our windows.\nBut a terrible myth persists. Many people claim that cats are the primary threat to the survival of songbirds.\nIn fact, what really threatens songbirds are destruction of their habitats, other birds (the big predators who raid nests), tall buildings and other obstacles with mirrored or shiny surfaces, as well as things like pesticides which contaminate their food sources.\nWildlife biologists report that cats are pretty bad at catching birds. They can't fly, they can't climb a tree fast enough, and so, unless they get really lucky, the only birds they tend to catch are on the ground and very young or in poor health.\nJanice Biniok (http://www.TheAnimalPen.com) points out that farm cats rarely kill birds. She says that on her working farm, cats keep the rodent population in check, reducing the spread of rodent-borne diseases, damage to crops and stored foods, and prevent the damage rodents cause to equipment.\nDeb Eldredge, DVM, (http://coyote-run.net/) says: \"One of our barn cats was an incredible hunter -- voles, chipmunks, squirrels, mice, rats and weasels. Never once did we see her with a bird. We have had four other barn cats here and never once found them with a bird. Yes, we have bird feeders, so birds are around.\"\nDeb performed an informal study of the kill rate on her farm. 95 percent were small rodents (mice and moles), 3 percent rabbits, ground squirrels, rats and other small mammals, and only 2 percent birds. She wrote, \"the bird kills were very easy to tally since cats do not eat feathers, while the rodent kills are probably underestimated because mice are often eaten whole without leaving any evidence of the kill.\"\nThe \"natural\" food for cats is the small rodent. It contains all the elements their diet needs, about 52 per cent of their daily calorie intake from protein, 36 percent from fat and 12 perecent from carbohydrate. An average rat or mouse contains about 55 percent protein, 40 percent fat, and 10 percent carbohydrate.\nBirds, on the other hand, contain very little protein and it's hard to get to through all those feathers and small bones.\nI've taught three Simon Teakettles in a row not to chase birds. Tiki loved to go outside, and respected the fence in the back yard. I kept an eye out for him, and early on, when I wasn't sure I could trust him not to climb the fence, I would go out and if I saw him, I'd praise him, and if I didn't see him, I'll call him.\nI would hear a tiny \"meow\" from the daylily foliage, where he was hiding so he could watch the birds without scaring them. Smart kitty!\nTerzo, however, stays indoors. He has a shelf in my office window with a great view of a bird feeder.

HFT is associated with high order-to-trade ratios, as firms tend to generate a huge amount of quotes, or orders, but a relatively small number of trades.

        "title": "Telling The Stories That Matter: July 29 - Martha of Bethany, Unafraid to Hope",
        "raw_content": "Martha had a home in Bethany near Jerusalem and it was here that Jesus often rested and visited. Her brother and sister--Lazarus and Mary--are regularly mentioned with her. Often, the story that we remember of them is when Jesus visited and Martha was busy preparing and working to provide for Jesus. Her sister, Mary, was sitting at Jesus' feet.Martha chided Mary about not helping and Jesus corrected Martha saying that Mary had chosen correctly by being present with him. It's a popular scene for sermons and stories and, yet, it is not the only place we see Martha--whom Jesus loved.\nMary and Martha had sent word to their friend Jesus that Lazarus was sick and likely to die. They expected him to come quickly because of his dying friend and provide the healing that they had seen with their own eyes. At first, their anxiety was high but their hope remained fixed on Jesus' intervention. They had seen him heal strangers so, surely, he would heal a dear friend like Lazarus. Yet, he did not come immediately. Instead, he waited and conversed with his disciples. He took the moment to teach those close to him even if it involved anxiety and pain.\nAs the days passed, hope dwindled and confusion reigned in the minds of those close to Jesus. Martha must have wondered why Jesus delayed. Every passing traveler must have attracted her attention even as she cared for and served her brother. Finally, Lazarus died and with him Martha's hope. They buried him, they mourned him, and they wondered what could possibly have kept Jesus. They gave up hope. They wondered if Jesus had been waylaid by bandits. They wondered if Jesus had forgotten them.Martha--whom Jesus loved--was forced to deal with the anxiety and pain of the cold grip of grief.\nFinally, Jesus arrived at the entrance to their land and somebody told Martha that he had come. She left her family and friends and ran out to meet him. Mary remained with the mourners. Who can know what thoughts flew through Martha's head as she ran? When she met him, she lamented: \"Lord, if you had been here, Lazarus wouldn't have died.\"Feeling a faint glimmer of hope that begged to be believed in but demanded to be doubted she continued, \"But, even now, I know that you can do anything...\" Perhaps, she was just telling him that she still loved and trusted him even if he had let her down. Perhaps, she was asking for a miracle. And yet, perhaps, she didn't really know why she was saying it except that she had faith in this Jesus whom she loved--and whom loved her. She was asking for permission to hope.\n\"Lazarus will rise again,\" he said.\nMartha, not wanting to fan the flames of hope if they would only die away again, replied, \"Of course... on the last day--in the great resurrection.\" Martha had grown used to the saccharine sweet words of the mourners and friends who comforted her with anxious phrases.They saw her hopelessness and offered sickly assurance to replace it. She thought that Jesus was offering bland support because he didn't know what else to say.\nInstead, Jesus said something shocking: \"I am the resurrection. I am life. Whoever trusts me will live, even though they die. Death is not the end of all things for those who trust in me--I am life itself and I shall conquer death.\" Having said this, he asked her, \"Do you trust me?\"\nMartha looked into his eyes and knew that hope and trust placed in this man--Jesus--is not misplaced. She replied, \"Yes, Lord, I trust you. You are the Messiah. You are the Son of God.You are what happens when life takes a body.\"\nIn the story, Jesus goes to the tomb and calls Lazarus out of death. Jesus defies the powers of the world that say that death is the end and the ultimate threat. Instead, Jesus shows that those who place their trust and hope in the incarnation of life have nothing to fear in death. Jesus defied the hope-killers by offering life even in the presence of death. Lazarus comes out of the tomb and continues to live. This is an amazing scene but it is not the only amazing scene in the text. Before Jesus raises Lazarus from out of death, Jesus resurrected Martha's hope by assuring her that death is not the end and is not insurmountable--a point he would make again through his crucifixion. Jesus gave hope back to Martha and this is, perhaps, as amazing of a miracle as the raising of Lazarus from the dead.",

Having a family to care for as well as a business are equally trying, but Victoria Beckham seems to have everything seamlessly under control.\nAfter sitting down for an interview with The Sunday Times, Beckham reveals how she is able to succeed at both. The live stream\u2019s main purpose was to honor women for International Women\u2019s Day and to show that women like Beckham have been able to achieve so much.\nIn fact, 79 percent of people on Beckham\u2019s team are women. She made it a point to acknowledge that everyone on her team should inspire her to keep going.\nTo all the women around the world\u2026. happy women's day !! #womensday\nA post shared by Romeobeckham (@romeobeckham) on Mar 8, 2017 at 9:41am PST\nThe fashion designer starts off by saying that her employees don\u2019t work for her, but they instead, work together to finish tasks and projects. She said, \u201cIt\u2019s about empowering your team. Yes, it\u2019s about being firm, but it\u2019s also about allowing them to be free, especially when you work in a creative industry. If you empower people and make them feel like the best version of themselves, that\u2019s how people give you their best work.\u201d It has become an essential in her company, especially in a creative industry.\nDuring the livestream, Beckham and a candidate from Estee Lauder said that it is of upmost importance to be a boss that is collaborative and that being feminine as well as a leader is the better combination.\nBeing a woman and owning or part of a business is much harder. Beckham said, \u201cThere are a lot of women who are in a business or who want to start a business that have a family. You can\u2019t underestimate how hard it is for a woman to juggle having that family and also working.\u201d In the working industry that have been mainly dominated by men, there has been a lot of pressure to succeed.\nTowards the end of the interview, it concludes with how far women have come together and how vital it is to keep going. Like so many things in life, one of the main ideas throughout the entire segment is that this is not the finished product. This is work in progress set to keep improving.\nStay in touch with the movement by adding the #shemeansbusiness on social media posts.

        "raw_content": "Wendy Red Star was raised on the Aps\u00e1alooke (Crow) reservation in Montana. Red Star\u2019s work is informed by her cultural heritage. Her work explores the intersection of Native American ideologies and colonialist structures, both in historical and in contemporary society. Wendy Red Star was chosen for this issue because her work speaks strongly about the ingrained cultural racism still affecting Native people and exposes these moments and atrocities for the digestion and responsibility of all Americans. Thank you for speaking with us Wendy.\nhttp://www.wendyredstar.com/\n\u200b@wendyredstar\nComanche Come Down #23 (White Squaw)\n11\u201d x 18\u201d Archival Pigment Print\nHow has the political climate affected the ways in which you work? Has your productivity been affected at all?\n\u200bI\u2019ve spent a crazy amount of time focused on the news. Every morning I get up and read the news and see what\u2019s going on. Even my daughter is very much aware. Her and her friends even talk about what\u2019s going on in politics, which is interesting because she is just 9.\nThe day after the inauguration, I had to do a lecture at a college. I had a really hard time getting up that morning. What made me feel better was the fact that I am an artist and realizing how important the artist voice is. I was excited to be talking to young artists and encouraging them. So I\u2019m actually very optimistic about who I am and the profession that I\u2019m in. Being an artist is going to help for sure.\nFor part of my own personal work, I\u2019ve been really invested in my own tribe\u2019s history in relation to the U.S. government. I\u2019m working on researching all the Crow tribe\u2019s delegations to DC from 1873 forward. It\u2019s really important for me to see how my own people have been shaped and affected by the government. I think seeing from that perspective is being enhanced by the political climate right now.\nWinter - Four Seasons // 2006\n\u200bEven though I think it\u2019s horrible what\u2019s going on, it\u2019s lit this fire. It\u2019s so exciting to have all these protests here in the pacific northwest they\u2019ve been really invigorating. I feel like as an artists we\u2019ve always been doing a kind of one-person protest. To be in this community and to see this resistance all over the world is exciting.\nAlthough it comes at the detriment of having someone like Trump in power. For me, as an artist who really focuses on identity and identity based work, it\u2019s really very refreshing to be so relevant. When I was going to graduate school there was only a few of us who did identity based work and we always got a lot of shit for it. We were always told, \u201cthat was already done in the 90\u2019s\u201d and \u201crace doesn\u2019t matter\u201d and those identity politics are over with. But we\u2019re a p.c. Nation now.\nWith Trump, the sheets are off the bed and now you know. It isn\u2019t over. All these issues were just covered up; all the bigots are out and they\u2019re not afraid, and now that all the ugly is exposed, I think it\u2019s an important time to get in there and work on these core issues.\nI was looking at other artists who are doing political work and their work would have been read one way if Hillary had won and certainly would have continued to progress in that way, but now that Trump won, their work has this other meaning and it\u2019s important. I see that in my own work too, the issues I\u2019m talking about are now very relevant, whereas before they might have been kind of brushed under the rug, things like, native people feeling invisible- and I think there is so much more support for that now.\nI feel like as artists we\u2019ve always been doing a kind of one-person protest. To be in this community and to see this resistance all over the world is exciting.\n#aps\u00e1alookefeminist\nTell me more about your new work. You said that you have been researching delegations that have gone to Washington. Can you talk a little bit about the history of these delegations and what you plan to do with your research?\nOriginally I did an exhibition in 2014 called Medicine Crow in the 1880\u2019s crow peace delegation which opened up a whole world of exploration for me. It was based on these two images of Medicine Crow and his portrait. The project was also about the appropriation of these two particular images of him. They had been used by corporations and other artists who had done renditions of him. Through that experience, I created this big project and while that delegation was from 1880 there were earlier delegations and many since. I think with everything happening with the political climate I wanted to learn about all the different trips that the Crow people had taken to Washington DC.\nA really great book that has given me a lot of great information is Diplomats in Buckskins by Dr. Herman J. Viola. That\u2019s been a great resource because it talks about early on in the 1600\u2019s and 1700\u2019s how different native nations were taken to Europe, - France and England.\nIn the new world, delegations were done to keep the peace but it was also done to show how great and powerful white society was, and this was definitely an intentional intimidation tactic.\nA lot of the native people would take several months to get to Washington. Along the way they would get sick and occasionally very ill. Some of the chiefs even died. Once they got to Washington D.C they meet with the president. Most of those delegation trips were ways for the government to get land, reducing the land owned by native people.\n\u200bThe Chiefs would be given gifts from the president, guns, silver medals, etc. Once a chief returned to their territory the other tribal members would hold them in more esteem. So there is a very interesting history with some darker things and very human things.\nOne story that has fascinated me was the first delegation in 1873. In this photograph all the chiefs have peacock feather dusters. Rumor is that they were actually taken to a brothel and watched a burlesque show. They were so impressed by the dancer that they asked to meet her afterwards and she gifted them each a feather duster. In return they each gave her their eagle fans. So you see this picture with them and they\u2019re all holding feather dusters.\n\u200bSo I just kind of wanted to unfold this history and follow it to my time. The plan is to actually take my own trip to Washington and take the project full circle.\nOld Crow // 2017\nIn this weird messed up way corporations are using Native American images to sell products and to capitalize on the very thing they wanted to take away.\nHow has your community responded to the political climate? What about your perception of the United States Government\u2019s relationship to Native Americans?\nYou know as far as my community I can\u2019t speak for all of them but I think a lot of oppressed people are usually liberal or democrat. Obama actually came and visited the reservation and he was adopted as a tribal member and given a name and everything.\n\u200bWhat really opened my eyes was a trip I took to Montana to visit my dad a couple months before the election. I live in Portland a liberal bubble and that plane to Montana was the first time I had been around people who were really into Trump and it was really disturbing.\nYakima or Yakama \u2013 Not For Me To Say // Three-color lithograph with archival pigment ink photograph // 24 x 40\"\nJust going into the reservation brought up feelings of concern about how fragile our relationship has been with the Government and how many things were promised that fell through or were taken away. So I really do worry about this relationship with Trump in power. We\u2019ve fought so hard to keep the land that we have. Originally in 1851 our chief told the government where our territory was and that was 38 million acres. But since then, after many trips to Washington our land has been reduced to 2.25 million acres. With such a huge loss of our land, I worry that our reservations will get taken away entirely.\n\u200bWhile visiting my dad he got into an accident and needed surgery. At the hospital It was scary because most of the nurses there were Trump supporters and I was actually concerned that they wouldn\u2019t treat him well because there is racism there. When Crow go to that hospital the nurses know the Crow aren\u2019t paying for it, because Indian Health Service pays for it.\nSo there\u2019s a bias towards them. He kept trying to talk to the nurses about the election and I told him \u201c You just have to be careful, I just want you to get out of the hospital safely.\u201d That was the first time I felt a real kind of threat.\nLooking at your White squaw pieces I\u2019m reading a lot of satire from them. It feels like you are poking fun of the uninformed way which much of western culture, or western media, has depicted Native Americans. In regards to this series, Do you think there is a history of hypocrisy or a double standard within using native American imagery? How do you think the context of art changes based on the race or perspective of the artist? What\u2019s the difference of a corporation using an image of a Native American versus how you use an image of a Native American?\nI think it all comes down to capitalism. For Native people almost everything has been taken away. There has been all kinds of forced assimilation, the taking away of kids from their parents, boarding schools, the cutting off of hair, punishment for speaking their language or anything associated from their culture. In this weird messed up way corporations are using Native American images to sell products and to capitalize on the very thing they wanted to take away. This isn\u2019t new and it\u2019s been happening since white people came in contact with Native people.\u200b\nSioux Wildfire #1 (White Squaw) / / Archival Pigment Print // 2014\nTwin Peaks Or Bust #9 (White Squaw) // Archival Pigment Print // 2014\nRed Top Tramp #14 (White Squaw) // Archival Pigment Print // 2014\nThe word squaw is a derogatory term that referred to the private parts of women. Even Ulysses S. Grant called the Native American woman squaws in his writing and the term was used in the newspapers from that era. From researching this word I ended up finding this book series that was produced in the 80\u2019s. There were about 24 books with the last ones made in the 90\u2019s. It was shocking that these books were around with such blatant racism and sexism as recent as the 90\u2019s. For me making this work was about taking back ownership of the word squaw, sort of like the word bitch. So I bought all of the books and scanned the covers of all of them. The only thing I changed was the main characters image. I kept everything else, all the subtext and everything. So none of that was mine, not the titles or anything. That\u2019s all from the original book.\nThat seems a lot less funny now.\nYeah, like there\u2019s no way I could come up with all that stuff. I couldn\u2019t believe that these were made so recently. I think Native people are the last race of people that there is still so much offensive imagery of us out there, things like the Washington redskins and the Queensland Indians still isn\u2019t seen as a problem. So that\u2019s the difference, me using it is not capitalizing on it but coming from a more human approach. \u200b\nAps\u00e1alooke Roses // Four-color lithograph with archival pigment ink photographs // 18 x 20\"\nHow do you define feminism, and by that definition do you consider your work to be feminist?\nYou know the issue of feminism has just come up for me recently, and I think it has a lot to do with living here in Portland. I\u2019ve come up against that word a lot and for me Aps\u00e1alooke woman, is a different kind of feminism because it\u2019s outside of that colonial structure that white feminism has been grown out of. I think for a lot of women of color it has been about carving out a space and coming up to bat for that. It\u2019s a different kind of feminism due to race and class and although we can unite like in the women\u2019s march, there\u2019s always some kinds of backlash, like the 53 or 54% of women who voted for Trump for example.\nI do love feminism and I think it\u2019s so important, especially in raising my own daughter. We were driving in the car and the radio announced that it was national men\u2019s day and from the back seat I heard this cackling and I turn around and my 9 year old. She\u2019s says\u201d isn\u2019t it men\u2019s day like everyday, we sure are living in a Trump world now\u201d and I though \u2018wow your crazy, being able to grasp onto these concepts at your age.\u2019\nI\u2019m not anti-men or anything like that, but for me it\u2019s important to show Aps\u00e1alooke feminism the way that I want to see it, and that may not always mesh with colonial feminism. So carving out that space for myself and for my daughter has been very important.\nI have a series called #aps\u00e1alookefeminist that involves our collaborative work. I\u2019m moving forward with Beatrice, my daughter, to do a lot of performative work at museums, working with collections, and engaging with the public. I think we\u2019re just going to call our collaborative process Aps\u00e1alooke feminist and just take that journey together. While I think our journey is important, I think if anything the work has to be flexible to include women from other cultures and more perspectives on what it mean to be a woman in those cultures.\nWhen I was in undergrad I was setting up teepees on campus and one of the professors said that my work was very political. I didn\u2019t even know what that meant at the time. I didn\u2019t know that doing something outside of the colonial norm was considered political.\nFall - Four Seasons // 2006\nHow have conversations in the political sphere changed the way your work is viewed? Do you see your work as more politicized now than the past, and if so, has it been intentional?\nI haven\u2019t done anything quite yet, but I\u2019ve spoken at Cornish college a few weeks ago and it\u2019s interesting being around all the young artists that really feel the need to do political work. When I was in undergrad I was setting up teepees on campus and one of the professors said that my work was very political. I didn\u2019t even know what that meant at the time. I didn\u2019t know that doing something outside of the colonial norm was considered political. Speaking with artists of color who are doing identity based artwork, they\u2019re always told that there work is political, even if it\u2019s not to them, just doing things that they\u2019ve grown up doing and seeing, but since it\u2019s outside of that colonial standard it gets labeled as political.\n\u200bI have several openings coming up this summer and I think it will be interesting to see if people view my work differently. With the intense atmosphere that\u2019s going on in our country I think people are going to be looking at my work with more of a political gaze even if I don\u2019t do anything different.\nLooking forward, what is on the horizon for you and other artists working in this highly politicalized time?\nEven though it sounds horrible, it\u2019s been somewhat of a good time for artists because we\u2019re pushed to think about these important things more. It does feel good to see some artists changing their work and doing political work even if they haven\u2019t done it before. It\u2019s something I appreciate and I like to see. As for myself, I think my work has always been outside of the colonial norm and I think I just need to keep doing what I\u2019m doing because it hasn\u2019t reached that privilege yet. I feel solidified that I just need to keep making the work and keep supporting other artists, their making, and exposure. That\u2019s what I\u2019m forging towards.\n< Hiba Schahbaz\nPaul Baker Prindle >",

        "raw_content": "Golf has long been the sport of choice in Hollywood. Bob Hope and Bing Crosby were two of the most legendary show business figures who helped popularise the game in the post-WWII era and sponsored their own signature tournaments. They introduced the concept of the Pro-Am tournament and the annual Bob Hope Desert Classic at Pebble Beach (now the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am) in Monterey County, California became one of the game\u2019s most beloved events outside of the four majors. For over a half-century, most of Hollywood\u2019s greatest movie stars have flocked to the game as a spirited form of relaxation in between films.\nToday, golf is more popular than ever amongst the Tinsel Town crowd and leading actors such as Bill Murray Samuel L. Jackson, Hugh Grant, Matthew McConaughey et al. are some of the most ardent aficionados of the game. Other great movie stars who have made golf their passion include Sean Connery who famously took up golf when he had to learn how to swing a club as James Bond in Goldfinger; Jack Nicholson who once made impromptu use of a driver to smash the car windshield of a man who had cut him off in traffic; and Clint Eastwood who first played Pebble Beach at age 23 even before he became an actor and would later go on to become a part-owner of the golf club and remains a formidable player at age 88 \u2013 \u201cThe best part of my game is realizing that nothing comes easy. When I\u2019m on my game, chipping is the best part. But that\u2019s a very fleeting romance. It can leave you quick.\u201d\nCelebrity golfers tend to invest more energy and enthusiasm into their golf game than they do in their acting careers. Golf is such an exacting test of one\u2019s skills and so maddeningly difficult to excel at it that some of the top actors in Hollywood feel driven to master the sport even though it can leave them very exposed to public humiliation. The late great Oscar-winning actor Jack Lemmon once observed: \u201cI would rather play Hamlet with no rehearsal than play a Pro-Am golf tournament on TV.\u201d",

After keeping it a secret for at least three years, Sheen admitted that he has been diagnosed as HIV positive. A reason why the actor decided to go public with this revelation is because he hopes he would no longer have to keep people for their silence. As a whole, the actor has paid over $10 million in hush money. With his admission, Sheen hopes he could get some of the money back.\nBut apart from the money, the question on everyone\u2019s minds now is how will his ex-girlfriends react to his revelation. With his prolific past with women, Sheen could be in some money trouble especially if he failed to disclose his HIV status to his previous partners. Let\u2019s take a look back at Sheen\u2019s ex-girlfriends:\nBrett Rossi (2014)\nPhoto Source: BreakingNews.ie\nIn 2014, Sheen dated former adult film star Brett Rossi.

        "raw_content": "At this moment, I\u2019m probably the happiest I\u2019ve been in a very long time. So, you\u2019ve got me on a perfect day.\nI moved here about ten years ago to study art. I think I did the whole middle-aged thing and have a little kind of break from what I was doing. I split up with an ex-boyfriend. Thought \u2018why am I working in an office and depressed when I could be doing art?\u2019 I went back to study art at TAFE and did that for a couple of years. I loved it and thought \u2018what else could I do?\u2019 and came to Canberra to study art. I was adamant I was leaving the minute I got my degree but I\u2019ve been here for another 5 years. The people keep me here.\nMy perfect day in Canberra would be at home with my flatmates with take away coffee.\nThe best thing about being a woman in Canberra is definitely the other women here. I\u2019m surrounded by the most amazingly talented group of women who inspire me all the time and I just sometimes can\u2019t get over it. The people that live in Canberra and the women that I know are just all so active and everyday it\u2019s an absolute joy. I get to talk to these women at work and at home. They push me forward and make me better as a woman as well.\nThe first word that came to my mind about being a woman was difficult. It\u2019s hard for me as well because I know that I\u2019m quite privileged. I\u2019m in this position where I\u2019m surrounded by people who love and support me, who understand sometimes there are struggles that you go through being a woman. I live with three other women, so I\u2019m very lucky in that respect. It can also be really difficult to be a woman sometimes and I was reminded of this just recently. I was catching a taxi when the taxi driver asked me out and put me in a position where I said \u2018yes\u2019 and all I wanted to say was \u2018no.\u2019 I said \u2018yes\u2019 because he knew where I lived. So there is still a lot of work to be done.\nI think the hardest thing about being a woman in Canberra is that I find a little bit of a very privileged European middle class male entitlement. I find it hard sometimes. There just seems to be a little bit of entitlement that happens in Canberra, which impacts on how people are treated.\nI think it\u2019s easy for me to maintain my health and wellbeing in Canberra. I\u2019ve got a good job, so I have money. I haven\u2019t been in a position where I\u2019ve really had to worry about it and when I was a student I had access to health services. Most of the younger women I know make use of the ACT health services. I\u2019m actually aware of the services as well, which I think is a good thing. And people like you are doing a good job and actually spreading that information around.\nhttp://www.womenofcanberra.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/WoC_CatalogueImage_0039_Shellaine.jpg 4177 2774 Angela Carnovale http://www.womenofcanberra.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/logo-women-of-canberra-transparent.png Angela Carnovale2015-04-13 15:39:042015-04-14 16:35:33post0039",

We genuinely care about what we do and the clients and pets we care for.\nDr. Amy Van Tassel has been practicing in the Chicago suburbs since graduating from the University of Illinois in 2000. She knew she wanted to become a veterinarian at a very young age- kindergarten, in fact. She prides herself on caring for her patients as she cares for her own pets--with genuine compassion and a focus on prevention and early intervention. In her spare time, she enjoys gardening, scrapbooking, handicrafts, and taking long walks with Tim and their furry family.\nDr. Amy and Tim met at school and have been married since 2002. They're very happy to have the opportunity to work together, caring for their patients and clients.\n\"Opie\" was adopted by Dr. Amy and Tim from As Good As Gold rescue when he was 6 months old.\nTim Van Tassel, CVT is a certified veterinary technician. He graduated from Parkland College, the longest established technician college in Illinois, in 2000. With a particular passion for dentistry, he enjoys teaching pet parents that good dental health can not only keep our furry friends' mouths looking and smelling good, but can actually extend their lifespans. During his free time, Tim enjoys reading, playing with Opie and Ichabod, and watching movies with the family.\n\"Ichabod\" joined the Van Tassel pack from Northern Illinois Pug rescue in 2014 when he was a year and a half old. Both of the Van Tassel dogs have unique personalities but are both fun-loving boys. They come with Dr. Amy and Tim to work most days and spend the majority of the day sleeping on the couch in back or wrestling and chasing each other. Dr. Amy and Tim had a household of super seniors for many years before Ichabod and Opie and while they miss their seniors dearly, the boys definitely keep them young!",

The tapings, scheduled for May 25 and 26 at the Preston Guild Hall, have now been postponed.\nNo reason was announced to explained the delay although PWInsider.com says that it wasn\u2019t because of ticket sales. Impact and ITV were scheduled to tape a total of ten episodes over the period of two days, with those episodes supposed to air in July.\nITV did not announce a new date for tapings so the project for now is on the sidelines until most likely later this year. World of Sport made its return for a one night only special on December 31 of last year, pulling in 1,250,000 viewers with Jim Ross doing play-by-play commentary.\nIs Matt Hardy\u2019s Broken gimmick ready for WWE television?\nRaw gets Great Balls of Fire pay-per-view in July\nImpact Wrestling teams up with ITV to bring back WOS Wrestling\nITV Studios Entertainment announced today that it has teamed up with Impact Wrestling to bring WOS Wrestling back to ITV, with an initial commission for a 10-part series.

        "raw_content": "Rabies on the rise - WSIL-TV 3 Southern Illinois\n\"Rabies\" is a word that strikes fear into the hearts of pet owners around the world. And it should: Each year, more than 50,000 people die from this fatal neurologic disease.\nAlthough strict rabies vaccination protocols in the United States have limited the death rate in this country to fewer than 10 people a year, recent data indicates that the number of cases in the wild is on the rise.\nRabies is a virus that attacks the nervous system. It is easily transmissible through saliva and is unique in its ability to affect many animals, from people to dogs, cats, cows, skunks, raccoons, foxes and bats. Once clinical signs of disease develop, it is almost invariably fatal. Despite its presence in many animals, the majority of human exposures worldwide come from our friend, the dog.\nIt's not uncommon for specific regions to have surges in rabies incidences when a wild population experiences an outbreak. When people move into wilderness areas to build homes or to enjoy the open space, their chance of encountering a rabid animal increases. This raises the question: How should owners protect themselves and their dogs from the disease?\nFirst, make sure your pet is up-to-date on its rabies vaccination according to the laws of your local jurisdiction. Most areas require a vaccination once every three years, though some locals require a yearly vaccination. Almost all rabies vaccinations on the market for dogs today have been shown to last at least three years via duration of immunity studies. As always, if there are questions about what is appropriate for your pet, consult your veterinarian.\nFor people who work with at-risk populations of animals, pre-exposure rabies vaccinations can be given. If a person is bitten by an animal whose rabies status is unknown or suspect, postexposure rabies vaccinations can be given to prevent the virus from reaching the nervous system. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 30,000 to 40,000 people a year in the United States receive this postexposure prophylaxis. When given in a timely manner, it is very effective in preventing a full-blown case of rabies.\nTry Exceptional Canine for more dog content, and The Daily Cat for advice on cat care and ownership.",

        "raw_content": "95% of all crashes are human errors not accidents...\n95% of all crashes are human errors not accidents - Northern Ireland\nThursday, 20 September 2012, YOURS News\nA new road safety campaign has been launched in Northern Ireland that focuses on the reality of road crashes; 95% of crashes in Northern Ireland are caused by human error and therefore could have been avoided. This challenges the notion that most crashes are 'accidents' that were unavoidable.\nThe 'Excuses' advert highlights that over 95% of collisions where someone is killed or seriously injured are the result of human error. The advert does not concentrate on speeding or drink driving, like previous campaigns\n\"A crash is not fate; it is a man-made tragedy that cannot be denied by excuses. Crashes are preventable and we are all responsible. By treating the road as a shared space, we can reduce the risks of being involved in a collision,\" said Northern Ireland Minister Alex Attwood.\nThe main causes of crashes are speeding, drink driving and driver carelessness and the advert also warns pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists not to take risks. Casualties are at their lowest point since 1931in Northern Ireland, with 28 people killed on our roads so far this year, but Chief Superintendent Peter Farrar said it is possible to further cut numbers.\n\"If everyone slowed down, did not drive after taking drink or drugs, wore a seatbelt and drove with more care and attention then the number of deaths and injuries will reduce,\" he said.\nThe advert challenges the belief that crashes most crashes are accidents and unavoidable. This adverts explains that most crashes are caused by human error that were avoidable.\n\"Occasionally there will be times when something outside our control happens, like a flat tyre or a puncture, a dog walks out in front of the car; but 95% of the time it's caused by human error.\n\"So I think all of us, if we look back, if we were in a collision, with hindsight would say well, actually there's something I would do differently.\"\nRoad Safety is no Accident - The theme of the World Youth Assembly 2007\nThe World Youth Assembly (WYA) that initatied the global youth movement for road safety brought together over 400 young people from over 100 countries to put road safety on the global agenda. This event operated under the banner of 'road safety is no accident'.\nCommunications Officer, Manpreet Darroch said, 'Calling avoidable crashes \"accidents\" gives the impression that the crash was not caused by human error but was rather fate. However, we know that if you are texting and driving, drink driving or undertaking other risky behaviour, a crash that is caused by this is not an accident. It is almost like proclaiming getting drunk was an accident while a person has been drinking all day'.\nYOURS supports this campaign and urges drivers to challenge their own risky behaviour and be road safety models. There are no excuses to road safety and road safety is no accident.\nView reactions to the advert at UTV Northern Ireland.\nExcuses Advert",

Didn\u2019t know that, but glad to learn about it, as it\u2019s named after one of our state\u2019s greatest ever. Quite possibly, the greatest wrestler ever from Ohio.\nAs many know, Kemp started wrestling his freshman year in HS. Won two state titles, junior national titles, & made it to the NCAA finals his freshman year, losing to Iowa legend Chuck Yagla in overtime.\nKemp never lost in college again, winning three national titles for Wisconsin.\nFive years after he walked into a wrestling practice for the first time, 18 year-old Kemp beat the 26 year-old NCAA, World & Olympic Champ and legend, Dan Gable, in a tournament at Northwestern University.\nKemp would go on to win three World Championships, but at his athletic peak at the age of 24, Kemp wasn\u2019t allowed to chase his ultimate goal of an Olympic title, as the US boycotted the 1980 Olympics.\nRegarding the award itself, any info on it would be appreciated. Again, just glad it\u2019s done, as Kemp (IMO) seems to get lost in the shuffle when discussing our native Ohio greats.\nLastly, congrats to the 2018 recipient, Normandy\u2019s 3X State Champion, Kevon Freeman.\nLast edited by Nick Corey; 06-12-18 at 04:07 PM.\nFind all posts by Nick Corey\nhttp://www.gcwcoa.com/honors/lee-kemp-award-winners/\nhe Lee Kemp Award is given to the the Most Outstanding Wrestler from Northeast Ohio. The award is given to a senior wrestler from a GCWCOA member school.\nFind all posts by hubman\nI can give some info.\nThis is the Outstanding Wrestler award given to a wrestler in the NE area.\nThe coach must be a member of the GCWCOA (which costs virtually nothing).\nHere is a list of past winners.\nLooking over the list, it has some pretty impressive names on it.\nThis years winner was Kevon Freeman from Lake Catholic. I just delivered the trophy to his AD yesterday so hopefully it will be in his hands shortly.\nFind all posts by Jim Behrens\nThanks Hubman and Jim Behrens. Great info. And thanks for the link, Jim! Very cool reading some of the winners. Some beasts on there.\nAlso, saw that it\u2019s been around a lot longer than 20 years. Almost 40! Very cool. Living more than 4 hours south of Cleveland, honestly had never heard of it. Glad it exists, and glad it\u2019s named after Lee!\nHang in there, Soul Provider!\nKemp won his 1st state title as a junior by coming back from a fairly large deficit to beat the legend from Perrysburg - Jerry Metcalf. Metcalf was 3rd as a sophomore, won the state title as a junior (at 132 in 1972) then lost to Kemp his senior year in the semi-finals (at 138 in 1973). Both were undefeated at the time. Metcalf received a full ride to Iowa State but I believe he left after or during his freshman year and I don't think he wrestled after that (may have wrestled some AAU tourneys - not sure). It shocked a lot of people in the Toledo area when Metcalf did not repeat as state champ, but nobody had heard of Kemp at that point in time. Kemp has long acknowledged that was one of his greatest matches.\nHere is an excerpt from an article written in 2004 that I was referring to:\nWhen you ask Lee Kemp about the single most significant highlight of his wrestling career, he has two answers, both which are very detailed and thought out. This is very much like Kemp; there is a reason why things happen in his life, and he is fully aware of the significance of what is going on around him. His \"first\" most important wrestling achievement happened during his junior year in high school, when Kemp made the jump from being an average wrestler into being the very best - a state champion in Ohio. Kemp sees that victory as developing the personal attributes that led to many greater achievements later on, both on the mat and in the business world. \"I learned to be a champion in high school. My thought process was the same there as it was the rest of my career,\" said Kemp. \"I became a three-time World Champion and three-time NCAA champion my junior year in high school.\" Kemp was a .500 wrestler as a sophomore, but went to a summer camp where he met Dan Gable and became, as he says, \"obsessed\" with the sport. His junior year, he ran the table, going undefeated and beating the defending champion Jerry Metcalf in the semifinals. Kemp trailed early in the match against Metcalf, but came on at the end with persistence and conditioning, as scored late points for the win. \"To be victorious in that match taught me to win from then on,\" said Kemp. \"I won that match by not giving up, by continuing to come at him. He was not prepared for that. That breakthrough allowed me to win my entire career.\"\nFind all posts by OCEagle\nhttp://www.gcwcoa.com/lake-catholics...-award-winner/\nhttp://www.gcwcoa.com/2018-g-c-w-c-o...ers-announced/\nBTW, the ball game was fun too.\nKyle Snyder wins AAU Sullivan Award Yankeefan33 Wrestling 5 04-21-18 02:35 PM\nLee vs #12 Rivera eliwes Wrestling 1 02-05-18 08:55 AM\nHost 3X NCAA Champion, 3X World Champion Lee Kemp at Your School/Club Nick Corey Wrestling 0 10-18-17 05:11 AM\nESPN sacks Lee zeeman General Board 90 08-26-17 08:10 AM\nOHSAA, District Athletic Boards Award $148,750 in College Scholarships Yappi Football 9 07-28-17 10:26 PM",

        "raw_content": "YOU ARE HERE > ARTICLES > What is a Spiritual Garden?\nWhat is Meant by the Term Spiritual Garden?\nI use the terms \u201cSpiritual Garden\u201d, \u201cGarden Sanctuary\u201d and \u201cSacred Garden\u201d interchangeably, for they are all so interrelated that it is only useful to differentiate when the term is appropriate to the context in which it is being used.\nSpirit is used as a generalized term for God, Universal Truth, Consciousness, Higher Power or any other supernatural form or creation that one chooses to align with their belief system.\nWith that said, a Garden Sanctuary is a space thoughtfully designed to create not only an ambiance of peace and prosperity, but at a transcendent level, where one connects with the Spirit of the Garden, facilitating a connection between Heaven and Earth, the Divine and Human, the Self and Universal Spirit. It is a sacred outdoor space where you can retreat from the mundane world, relax and reawaken your connection with Spirit.\nGardening as an activity that symbolizes and represents the miracle of life in the form of a gardener growing something from a seed. There is something deep, a soulful connection to this miracle that when we garden, we experience this on a certain level.\nSimple acts such as witnessing the flowering of a plant or eating a tomato from your own vine is spiritually nourishing. Spiritual gardens should not only be aesthetic creations, but must in some way, trigger the \u201cspiritual experience\u201d- that personal revelation connecting you to the larger whole. The feeling you get when gazing upon a flower, that its meaning mystically unlocks a key to its sacred symbolism revealed through ancient wisdom.\nThese thoughtful realizations can be achieved through profound awareness of the physical objects and their associated meanings. For example, let us say that we are going to plant a special tree in the garden. We are going to call this tree the \u201cTree of Life\u201d as we have read about this concept.\nIn this context, the \u201cTree of Life\u201d is used as a symbol and is obviously associated with that of a secret message. The term \u201csecret message\u201d is interchangeable with the word symbol, but a symbol generally has deeper meaning. A symbol is something that through its outward aspect or character represents something more profound than itself.\nThe flames of a fire for instance, can symbolize the sun, which itself has qualities of heat, illumination and creative or destructive powers. The sun is associated with giving forth life and power as well as being associated with gods of mythology who possess these same qualities.\nIn a garden setting, elements or objects such as a light fixture, a luminary, fireplace or fire pit can be also related to the imagery of the sun.\nA symbolic image therefore can be linked to many garden design applications depending on its purpose and placement within the space.\nAs Jack Trasidder states in his book, Symbols and Their Meaning,\n\u201cThere is a connection between the power of symbols and their antiquity. There are some symbols or types of symbols that are so universally potent, so close to the very stuff of life, that there meanings tend to remain constant over time. We believe that on a personal level, that profound realities dwell beyond our rational objective knowledge, and that these \u201ctruths\u201d are sacred forms of knowledge of the universe and of ourselves. Our connection, that we instinctively sense is behind the language of symbols, suggests that such truths are eternal and we yearn to have access to them. That is why we are attracted to various forms of symbolism, myth and legend.\u201d\nIn order for someone to create and design their own sacred or spiritual garden space, the foundation must be in place. Certain basic design principles should be followed along with appropriate site planning principles that would apply to any location.\nAfter the foundation is in place, the transcendental qualities are incorporated in such a way so that the garden builder can customize it to their needs. This is how one personalizes the garden. The elements chosen are not only imbued with their own inherent embodiments, but the garden builder adds their own spiritual intention in such a manner that the elements now have special meaning. The garden meaning has now become what the gardener associates with sacred.",

        "raw_content": "Charles Stanley \u2013 Overcoming Life\u2019s Ups and Downs\nContentment is something we all desire yet too seldom have. If it comes, it usually seems short-lived. And often we think that contentment is possible only if all our circumstances are comfortable and there are no conflicts or misunderstandings in our relationships.\nThe apostle Paul proves that perfect conditions are not the source of contentment. He wrote his letter to the Philippians while he was in a Roman prison. Contentment was something he had to learn, not through comfort but through hardship and suffering. Paul relied on spiritual truths to enable him to face his difficulties God\u2019s way\u2014without complaint, worry, or fear.\nIn every trial, we have a choice to view the situation from our perspective or from God\u2019s. Depending on our focus, we either react emotionally or respond spiritually, based on God\u2019s Word and promises. Inner turmoil and outward agitation result when we focus on feelings instead of spiritual principles. But when we habitually see every matter from God\u2019s point of view, then irritation, anger, and blame will be replaced by an inner quietness and confidence.\nIs it really possible to face serious trials and have God\u2019s peace? According to Paul, the answer is yes. We can be content in all circumstances through Christ\u2019s strength (Phil. 4:13). This isn\u2019t a natural response but a supernatural one, which God alone can produce in the lives of His children. If we\u2019ll let divine truths interpret our trials and trust the Holy Spirit to empower us to respond in faith, our heart will find rest no matter what goes on around us.\nOur Daily Bread \u2014 The Widow\u2019s Faith\nRead: 2 Kings 4:1\u20137 | Bible in a Year: 2 Samuel 23\u201324; Luke 19:1\u201327\nThe pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. Matthew 6:32\nIt is pitch dark when Ah-pi starts her day. Others in the village will wake up soon to make their way to the rubber plantation. Harvesting latex is one of the main sources of income for people living in Hongzhuang Village, China. To collect as much latex as possible, the trees must be tapped very early in the morning, before daybreak. Ah-pi will be among the rubber tappers, but first she will spend time communing with God.\nAh-pi\u2019s father, husband, and only son have passed away, and she\u2014with her daughter-in-law\u2014is providing for an elderly mother and two young grandsons. Her story reminds me of another widow in the Bible who trusted God.\nWe may face situations beyond our reserves, but never beyond God\u2019s resources.\nThe widow\u2019s husband had died and left her in debt (2 Kings 4:1). In her distress, she looked to God for help by turning to His servant Elisha. She believed that God cared and that He could do something about her situation. And God did. He provided miraculously for the dire needs of this widow (vv. 5\u20136). This same God also provided for Ah-pi\u2014though less miraculously\u2014through the toil of her hands, the produce from the ground, and gifts from His people.\nThough life can make various demands on us, we can always draw strength from God. We can entrust our cares to Him, do all we can, and let Him amaze us with what He can do with our situation.\nFather, thank You for Your patience when I trust in my own resources and turn to You only as a last resort. Teach me to seek Your help in all I do.\nCan you remember a time when you thought that without a miracle you might not make it?\nThe Old Testament story of Elijah and Elisha speaks to such fears and the need for faith. Through signs and wonders Elijah called a nation back to its God (1 Kings 18:21, 38\u201339). Elisha, in turn, inspired hope by miraculously purifying water, multiplying food, and raising the dead.\nThis is the backstory that according to the New Testament was preparing the way for Jesus. With echoes of Elisha, Jesus filled the stomachs of more than 5,000 hungry people with a little boy\u2019s lunch (Matthew 14:15\u201321).\nAre you troubled by overwhelming needs that keep you awake at night? How does reflecting on God\u2019s miraculous power give you hope?\nRavi Zacharias Ministry \u2013 Love that Followed\nWriter Philip Yancey tells of his experience playing chess against a master player. He explains his rapid realization that no matter what move he made, no matter what strategy he chose, the master seemed to turn his play around to serve his own purposes. As I look back upon my life, it is so evident that the Master, that Hound of Heaven, has been on my trail, working all things out for God\u2019s own ends\u2014God\u2019s own good and perfect ends, I might add.\nIn studying when the gospel first made inroads into my lineage, I have found that on both sides of my family, the first believers came from the highest cast of the Hindu priesthood six generations ago. The first Christian was a woman. She was interested in the message brought by missionaries, in spite of her family\u2019s terrible displeasure. One day as she was about to leave the missionary compound in order to return home before her family found out, the doors of the compound were shut because of a cholera epidemic. Remaining with the missionaries until the time of the quarantine was past, she committed her life to God. Threat of disease and the walls of a closed compound were the freeing means of her coming to Christ.\nReaders of English poetry will recall the turbulent life of Francis Thompson. His father wanted him to study at Oxford, but Francis lost his way in drugs and failed to make the grade time and again. This was a slumbering genius, if only his life could be rescued. When Francis finally succumbed to the pursuing Christ, he penned his immortal \u201cHound of Heaven\u201d:\nContinue reading Ravi Zacharias Ministry \u2013 Love that Followed \u2192\nJoyce Meyer \u2013 Enjoying the Journey\nBut Martha was very busy and distracted with all of her serving responsibilities; and she approached Him and said, \u201cLord, is it of no concern to You that my sister has left me to do the serving alone?\u2026\u201d \u2014 Luke 10:40\nI believe that life should be a celebration. Far too many believers don\u2019t even enjoy life, let alone celebrate it. Many people truly love Jesus Christ and are on their way to heaven, but very few are enjoying the trip. For many years I was one of those people\u2026I was like Martha!\nMartha was busy doing what I used to do\u2014running around trying to make everything perfect in order to impress God and everyone else. I complicated my relationship with the Lord because I had a legalistic approach to righteousness. I only felt good about myself when I was accomplishing something. And I resented people like Martha\u2019s sister, Mary, who enjoyed themselves. I thought they should be working like I was working.\nMy problem was that I was all Martha and no Mary. I loved Jesus, but I had not learned about the simple life He desired me to live. The answer, I discovered, was rooted in faith, discovering what it means to sit at the feet of Jesus, listen to His words, and trust God with all my heart and soul.\nPrayer Starter: Father, I ask for Your grace to truly enjoy and celebrate life. Help me to also enjoy my relationship with You and always remember what is truly important. In Jesus\u2019 Name, Amen.\nCampus Crusade for Christ; Bill Bright \u2013 No Darkness in Him\n\u201cThis is the message God has given us to pass on to you: That God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. So if we say we are His friends, but go on living in spiritual darkness and sin, we are lying. But if we are living in the light of God\u2019s presence, just as Christ does, then we have wonderful fellowship and joy with each other, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from every sin\u201d (1 John 1:5-7).\nOne of the first passages of Scripture that I memorized as a new Christian was the first chapter of 1 John. This passage has been a beacon to me through the years as a simple reminder that in God is light and the only reason that I do not live perpetually in that light is because at times I deliberately sin.\nSteve had lost his joy and enthusiasm for Christ, and as a new Christian was perplexed. He could not understand what had happened to him. As we counseled together, it became apparent that he had allowed some of his old natural habit patterns to creep back into his life.\nI suggested that he make a list of all the things that were wrong in his life and confess them to the Lord in accordance with 1 John 1:9. A few days later, with joyful enthusiasm he came to share with me how his heart had been kindled afresh with the love of God as he was now walking in the light as God is in the light, having wonderful fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ.\nHow does one walk in the light? Do not tolerate unconfessed sin. Meditate upon the Word of God. Spend time in prayer talking to God and letting Him talk to you. Share your faith in Christ with others. Obey the commandments of God.\nAre you walking in the light as God is in the light? Are you experiencing the joy of the Lord? Are you constrained by the love of Christ to share Him with others?\nTODAY\u2019S ACTION POINT: I shall always seek to walk in the light as God is in the light in order that I may experience wonderful fellowship with my Lord. When I find myself walking in darkness, I shall pause to confess my sins and by faith claim God\u2019s forgiveness and cleansing so that I may be restored to once again walk in the light with God.\nMax Lucado \u2013 In the Storm\nAfter Jesus\u2019 disciples fought a raging storm for nine cold hours, at about 4:00 AM the unspeakable happened. They spotted someone coming on the water. \u201cA ghost!\u201d they said, crying out in terror. (Matthew 14:26 MSG). They didn\u2019t expect Jesus to come to them this way.\nNeither do we. We expect him to come in the form of peaceful hymns on Easter Sundays or quiet retreats. We expect to find Jesus in morning devotionals and meditations. We never expect to see him in a divorce or a foreclosure. We never expect to see him in a storm. But it\u2019s in a storm that he does his finest work, for it is in storms that he has our keenest attention.\nJesus replied to the disciples\u2019 fear with an invitation worthy of inscription on every church cornerstone and residential archway, \u201cDon\u2019t be afraid,\u201d he said. \u201cTake courage. I am here!\u201d (Matthew 17:27).\nDenison Forum \u2013 Professor who reviled Barbara Bush will not be punished\nA California State University, Fresno, professor will not be punished for calling Barbara Bush \u201can amazing racist\u201d and cheering her death.\nThe university\u2019s president condemned Randa Jarrar\u2019s statements as \u201cinsensitive, inappropriate and an embarrassment to the university.\u201d However, he stated that she was acting as a private citizen using her personal Twitter account, so her statements didn\u2019t violate school policies.\nIn other California news, a former police officer has been identified as the so-called \u201cGolden State Killer.\u201d He is believed to have committed twelve killings and at least fifty rapes across California from 1976 to 1986.\nCloser to home, Dallas police officer Rogelio Santander died yesterday. He was one of three victims of a gunman who was caught shoplifting at a Home Depot in our area.\nHis tragic death reminds us that our police officers are on the front lines every day, willing to die so we can live. They deserve our intercession and encouragement today.\nAnd the husband of the woman killed last week on Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 has now spoken to reporters. When Michael Riordan learned that his wife had died, \u201cI immediately thought of the kids and how do you tell your kids their mom was gone.\u201d\nA very hard question\nContinue reading Denison Forum \u2013 Professor who reviled Barbara Bush will not be punished \u2192",

        "raw_content": "This month, we are happy to announce a very special Teacher of the Month: our Young Author\u2019s Book Project partner teacher, Mr. Eric Chow. Earlier this spring, we partnered with Mr. Chow\u2019s twelfth grade English classes at Burton High School for the YABP. For five weeks, tutors worked one-on-one with students as they wrote essays, personal narratives, and short stories in response to Mary Shelley\u2019s classic Gothic novel, Frankenstein. We encourage you to visit one of our stores to see the results of these classes\u2019 hard work and thoughtfulness yourself.\nMr. Chow has been an educator for the last 20 years and is admired greatly by his students. Be it providing 826 tutors to help his students create compelling narratives or bringing in additional speakers to motivate and provide support for college applications, students\u2019 needs are always the highest priority. For many of them, the opportunity to see the breadth of options available and get personalized advice is life changing. Mr. Chow\u2019s commitment to his students doesn\u2019t go unrecognized by the larger school community, either. As Burton HS Principal, Mr. Sam Bass said, \u201cMr. Chow has always put his students\u2019 needs first and is always looking to improve their experience in any way he can.\u201d\nDedication is at the heart of his work. According to a former student: \u201cone time he spoke about why he became an English teacher. He could\u2019ve done anything but he\u2019s really passionate about teaching and I\u2019ll never forget hearing him talk about that.\u201d It is that passion that inspires his students to take advantage of the opportunities he presents to them. It is that passion that drives him to check in with former students to see how they\u2019re doing after they leave his classroom. Mr. Chow is a source of support for many students, offering his expertise and time wherever it is needed.\nWe are ecstatic to be presenting Mr. Chow as our May Teacher of the Month. It has been an honor to see his wonderful teaching strategies in action. From all of us at 826 Valencia, Mr. Chow, thank you for encouraging your students to go above and beyond.\nRead more about our Teacher of the Month program, and how to nominate a special teacher in your life!",

        "raw_content": "Woman, her two great-grandchildren found dead in California fire\nREDDING, Calif. (Reuters) \u2013 Human remains believed to be that of an elderly woman and her two great-grandchildren have been found at a home destroyed by wildfire on the outskirts of the Northern California city of Redding, the Shasta County sheriff said .\nThe three bodies have yet to be positively identified, but their discovery raises the confirmed death toll from the Carr Fire to five, including a bulldozer operator and a firefighter who were killed when the blaze swept into Redding, about 160 miles north of Sacramento, two days ago.\nThe children\u2019s mother, Sherry Bledsoe, was quoted by the Sacramento Bee newspaper as saying, \u201cMy kids are deceased, that\u2019s all I can say,\u201d as she left the sheriff\u2019s office .\nThe newspaper said family members identified the dead as 70-year-old Melody Bledsoe, and her two great-grandchildren, James Roberts, 4, and Emily Roberts, 5.\nAccording to the Sacramento Bee\u2019s account, Melody Bledsoe\u2019s husband, Ed Bledsoe, wept as he recalled trying to get back to the family\u2019s house after he had left to run an errand on Thursday, only to learn that the fire was closing in on them. He told the newspaper that he spoke to the children on the phone as he raced in vain to return in time to save them.\n\u201cI talked to them until the fire got them,\u201d he was quoted as saying. \u201cI was trying to get to them, I was trying to get to the fire.\u201d\nSheriff Tom Bosenko declined to provide details about the circumstances of the three deaths. At a community meeting in Redding , he told Reuters, \u201cThere were three confirmed fatalities at that location,\u201d adding that authorities believed the victims were the trio who were reported missing at that home.\nEarlier , Redding police said they were trying to locate 17 people reported missing by loved ones or friends after the blaze, which has been burning since Monday, violently erupted into a firestorm that jumped the Sacramento River into the western part of Redding.\nWhole neighborhoods in Redding, a city of 90,000 residents, as well as the nearby town of Keswick, with a population of about 450, were reduced to ash. California fire officials have said some 500 structures were destroyed, and 38,000 people remained under evacuation orders.\nRedding Police Sergeant Todd Cogle stressed that the number of those unaccounted for had fluctuated during the past two days \u2013 from as many as 20 to as few as 12 \u2013 as some who were reported missing tuned up safe while others were added to the list.\nCameron says UK drone killed British IS fighters in Syria\nS Arabia elects 17 women to local councils in historic poll\nAustralia to test debris found two years after Malaysian jet disappeared\nFloods in Texas cause flight cancellations, power outages\nDozens of Afghans deported from Germany arrive in Kabul\nOne dead in knife attack in Hamburg supermarket, motive unclear\nAny new Korean war could quickly escalate to catastrophe\nUS military may house immigrant children as Trump policy beset by confusion\n\u2190 Powerful quake hits Indonesia\u2019s Lombok, three killed, houses damaged Erdogan: Turkey will stand its ground faced with US sanctions \u2192",

Regular dismissals will occur. https://t.co/xizmzVcIfM\n\u2014 Limestone District School Board (@LimestoneDSB) December 6, 2018\nKingston Collegiate and Vocational Institute was locked down shortly after 2 p.m. on Thursday but was deemed clear of any threat shortly after. Students were allowed to leave at regular dismissal hours.\nA threat was called in to Holy Name Catholic School after the Kingston Collegiate threat. The Holy Name lockdown was changed to a hold and secure at around 2:50 p.m. after no threat was found at the school. In fact, no actual threats have been found at any of the schools threatened.\nKingston police watch commander said the threats were similar to those made to three schools on Wednesday.\nThose threats, which mentioned entering the schools with weapons in order to do harm, were made by phone on Wednesday to Regiopolis-Notre Dame Catholic High School at 9:30 a.m., Bayridge Secondary School at 11 a.m. and to Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School at 1 p.m. In each case, police found nothing and deemed the schools to be safe, and the lockdowns were downgraded to hold and secures.\nKingston Police are blocking the entrance to \u00c9cole secondaire catholique Marie-River after the school was placed in lockdown Thursday morning. More information to come. #ygk @CKWS_TV pic.twitter.com/XOrLJHjnqW\n\u2014 Kraig Krause (@KrauseKraig) December 6, 2018\nA lockdown is put in place when there is a potential threat of violence somewhere inside the school. This differs from a hold and secure, when the potential threat is in close proximity to the school.\nJust as it did on Wednesday, on Thursday morning, a Twitter account first created this December took responsibility for making threats to eight schools in the area. Kingston police have asked the public not to interact with the account because they could be encouraging the suspect. Despite that, the account keeps gaining followers and tweeting actively.\nKingston police says students and staff are not allowed to use electronic devices while they\u2019re experiencing a lockdown, unless they have important information for emergency response teams.\nThe last two days of lockdowns have made some parents concerned to let their children go back to school and have prompted parents to attend schools during the the lockdowns.\nNevertheless, Kingston Police have asked parents not to attend any school while they are in lockdown for the safety purposes.\nConcerned parents wait outside LCVI while it\u2019s under lockdown. #ygk @CKWS_TV pic.twitter.com/C1hyHgebpY",

Residents reached out to Global News, voicing their concerns about the issue.\nIt was just hours after our story aired, they said, that the heating was fixed.\n\u201cWhen I saw the trucks out there, I said halleluiah,\u201d White said.\nWithin a few hours, White says the heat was back on by early afternoon.\n\u201cMaybe someone seen the show, I don\u2019t know, but they got on the bandwagon immediately.\u201d\nWATCH: Residents speaking out after dealing with colder temperatures in their own home.\n\u201cHopefully it\u2019s coincidental,\u201d said Angus MacDougall, another resident in the building.\nThe company responsible for the building, Briar Lane Property Management, took over in May, leaving residents to ask why they didn\u2019t notice a problem.\n\u201cWhy wait for the middle of the winter to find out the heat is no good in the building and then start the work and let us suffer?\u201d White said.\nCOMMENTARY: Waiting for Ontario to recognize that home heating is essential\nBefore it was repaired, residents say they were living in temperatures well below 15 degrees Celsius. \u201cWe were seeing temperatures of 54, 55, 56 degrees Fahrenheit,\u201d White said.\nAccording to the Residential Tenancies Act, landlords must keep the temperature at a minimum of 20 degrees between the months of September and June.\nResidents say this was after several months of going back and forth with the property management group. In a phone call with Global News, an official with the company claimed it was a process that was going to take time, with parts needed in order to repair the older system. They went on to say it was an ongoing problem, since they took ownership of the property.\nWith the heat turned back on, residents are now hoping to get a partial refund on their rent. It\u2019s not clear if the company will honour their requests, but residents are hopeful they can help them outside of the Landlord Tenant Board.",

        "raw_content": "New Study in the Journal SLEEP Finds that Treating Insomnia is Far Less Costly than Ignoring It\nWESTCHESTER, Ill. \u2014 Insomniacs are advised to get early treatment for their sleep disorder not only so they can start feeling better faster, but it can also save them and their employers money in the long run. A study published in the March 1 issue of the journal SLEEP finds that, as opposed to treating insomnia, failure to treat it is much more costly.\nThe study, conducted by Ronald J. Ozminkowski, PhD, director of health and productivity research at Thomson Medstat in Ann Arbor, Mich., and James K. Walsh, PhD, director of the Sleep Medicine and Research Center in Chesterfield, Mo., addresses the cost of untreated insomnia for over 210,000 patients.\nThe authors discovered that, in contrast to many other disorders, insomnia is relatively inexpensive to treat. Even the most expensive medications cost less than $200 per year for the typical insomnia patient, noted the authors, adding that the major costs of insomnia occur before diagnosis is made and before treatment begins.\nIn comparison, the authors found that untreated insomnia led to $924 to $1,143 more in medical expenditures, depending on the patients\u2019 age, for just the six months before treatment began.\nIn the U.S., employers pay for about 80 percent of all health expenditures for the employees and dependents covered in their health plans. Employers also pay for all of the lost absenteeism via lower worker productivity. For a typical employee with untreated insomnia, these costs would be about $1,059 for just the six months prior to treatment, said the authors.\nInsomnia leads to a substantial increase in health care expenditures and absenteeism from work. About 10 percent of the adults in the U.S. (i.e., about 25 to 30 million people) have chronic insomnia, so the cost of failure to treat is huge for the U.S. population.\n\u201cOur study suggests that it costs far less to treat insomnia than to ignore it,\u201d said Ozminkowski, the study\u2019s lead author. \u201cUntreated insomnia affects individuals\u2019 health, quality of life, and job performance \u2013 and increases their use of healthcare services substantially.\u201d\n\u201cApproximately 25 to 30 million Americans have chronic insomnia, so this issue has huge implications for employers, health plans, government insurance programs and individuals,\u201d said Walsh, co-author of the study.\nInsomnia is a common sleep complaint that occurs when you have one or more of these problems:\nYou have a hard time initiating sleep.\nYou struggle to maintain sleep, waking up frequently during the night.\nYou tend to wake up too early and are unable to go back to sleep.\nYour sleep is non-restorative or of a poor quality.\nAbout 30 percent of adults suffer from some form of insomnia. It is more common among elderly people and women. Some medical conditions cause insomnia, or it may be a side effect of a medication.\nFor a copy of this study, entitled, \u201cThe Direct and Indirect Costs of Untreated Insomnia in Adults in the United States,\" or to arrange an interview with an AASM spokesperson regarding this study, please contact Jim Arcuri, public relations coordinator, at (708) 492-0930, ext. 9317, or jarcuri@aasm.org.",

Season one left us with a cliff hanger. Will Issa and her boyfriend get back together after she cheat snd how could you do that? Here's a sneak peek. I compare every dude to Lawrence. That's expected. He probably still hates me. That's fine. He still responds to your text messages, right? It's all bills and apartment stuff. He won't come and pick up his mail. I want us to be cool. I don't want him back. It's okay if you do. You made us -- were we team Lawrence? Team Issa? First of all, congratulations. Very proud of you. All that you have done. You take it from a web series to getting this golden globe nomination but you're still -- you're still that little, just girl at heart. Yeah, I'm still. Awkward and uncomfortable. Being a part of Hollywood and havinging a TV show is amazing. And people always ask me, what's changed? You know. You're recognized everywhere. That's not necessarily the case. I still feel like star-struck everywhere I go. I saw queen latifah. You saw queen latifah. She's like, I'm going to watch your show. It just feels so cool to be here. You know who else said, oh, I watch you. At the white house. Former president brark Barack Obama. Take a look at this. President Obama. I know. I can't. He was saying he watches you. How did it feel that moment? Knowing that he -- First of all to be invited was a big thing. I was like, mom, you're coming with me. She was like, Duh, I am. There was never a question. We got there. It was so beautiful. It was one of the last parties that they threw. We knew he was going to come out and make this speech and try to get -- I was focused on getting my mom to the front. You get to the front. You get your picture. She got to the front. He was shaking everybody answer hands. And, um, I saw her -- I saw him hug her, give her a kiss, and lost mer mind. I was like, she got a little bit of something. There's a space right there. Let me just at least touch him. I like -- made my way to the front. And, I was with my co-star, Yvonne. She was just -- just as excited as I was. He made his way to us, he cease her. He sees me. He tells her, she's having a good year, huh? About me. And then, I was like, you know, obviously shaken. I was like, you know me? You the president, you know me? He was like, I love seeing black women be creative. I love you show. I love your sound track. I can't say any of that until after I'm president because the language is a little colorful. He held my and that entire time. Both of our hands. When he walked away, I collapsed. To my knees. There's something about him. Why do you feel it resonates with so many people of different races, this show? I think we're is a very specific show about two black girls. But it's about friendship. Relationships. It's about -- we really tackle universal things. So, you know, just as -- anybody who watches it has a best friend, anybody has been in a relationship. Everybody has felt insecure or uncomfortable at one point. Everybody feels like they don't visit together at some point in their lifetime. Tell us about season two. That was a cliff hanger you left us with. We did. Season two, just giving as you mentioned, Issa cheated on her boyfriend. Season one was all about her being active the. She made decisions is she regretted. The character cheated. But in real life, they think you did. Men are so angry with me. So many men watch and identify with Jay's character, laurnl, I'm floored. I was like, I didn't write this for you. I'm glad you're watching it. But don't come at me like I cheated on you. So, I'm flattered by the fact that they take these characters so personally. Because you're just so real. We try to tackle real issues. Our writers' room is superdiverse. If you tell a story in the writers' room, it's going to be on TV. Thank you for always thinking of us.

        "raw_content": "George A. Romero\u2019s Greatest Un-Undead Films\nGeorge A. Romero was widely considered one of the greatest horror directors in history. Wes Craven and John Carpenter likely serve as leaders in a conversation centered on the \u201cGOAT\u201d (that\u2019s greatest of all time, in case you\u2019ve been living under a rock) of horror, but George A. Romero has certainly garnered plenty of nominations from fans through the years. He basically created modern zombies. He actually said more in his Dead series than anyone I\u2019ve mentioned thus far ever has.\nGeorge Romero was a profoundly important contributor, and his passing leaves something of a hole in a lot of our hearts.\nIs it even possible to watch a zombie movie and not think of Romero?\nThe Walking Dead spent a number of years ruling cable television, but it wouldn\u2019t have if it weren\u2019t for Romero\u2019s (who has been honored many times since the show premiered) Night of the Living Dead.\nZombie\u2019s are arguably the most popular attractions in the current landscape of horror. That\u2019s because of Romero.\nThe man could easily be called a genius and few would ever argue. I certainly have no problem with that statement, though I would like to remind fans that Romero had a few serious winners under his belt that had no relation to his outstandingly successful Dead franchise.\nRomero had a tendency to work with Stephen King \u2013 or his source material \u2013 and the two made for a fine fit. One of Romero\u2019s finest, and one of King\u2019s more underrated adaptations, arrived in 1993 when Romero brought The Dark Half to life with the help of a well-cast Timothy Hutton whose character, Thad Beaumont, finds himself in a life or death showdown with what may be his own alter ego. It\u2019s a trippy flick, but it makes for good entertainment and feels like an excellent precursor to another King tale, Secret Window.\nThe Crazies might just be one of the most underrated genre films ever made. It\u2019s a far cry from perfect, but it does successfully explore paranoia, small-town terror and the threat of the government. It\u2019s all about the outbreak of a man-made virus that drives the infected insane \u2013 murderously insane, chipping away at a small town in record time. The film makes some military and government commentary, but never comes off as too preachy. Rather, it\u2019s a fun little vintage flick that eventually earned an equally impressive remake.\nIs Martin really an 80-plus year-old vampire? Is it all a morbid fantasy? George A. Romero already invented a new and inspired rendition of the undead, the fact that he would also create a genuinely original vampire tale seems baffling. The man was meant to innovate, plain and simple, and those who have been fortunate enough to see this forgotten little treasure understand that even vampires are subject to a makeover from this legend.\nJust the idea of a quadriplegic leaning on the assistance of a monkey to get by screams terror. The possibilities are pretty damn limitless and Romero apparently saw that in the story, as he takes this often eerily realistic tale and runs with it. Fast. It\u2019s a film that invokes as much hopelessness as it does dread, and it\u2019s a must-see for anyone who can call themselves a genre fan. Monkey Shines has a loyal cult following, so it\u2019s a bit easier to spot than a pic like Martin, and make no mistake, it\u2019s worth tracking down.\nI don\u2019t need to say much about Creepshow, do I? It\u2019s irrefutably one of the finest anthologies ever released, and it sees Romero and Stephen King again joined for a trek into terror that few have or ever will forget. The film has a wonderful comic book presentation that helps to serve as the glue holding everything together, but it\u2019s the short stories themselves that really stick. Favorite segments will of course differ, depending upon personal preferences, but for my money, Father\u2019s Day and The Crate are two of the greatest horror stories told.",

He is naughty, annoying and generally would run away from me at any given point in search of something more exciting. It\u2019s been an interesting 14 years together for sure! Though he can barely walk now, he climbed all the way up on the table to eat leftovers off a plate not even a week ago. Until this morning, I have never been able to stop him from getting in the dishwasher to lick the plates and silverware. He has destroyed every \u201cindestructible\u201d dog toy on the market and only in the last few years have we found a way to keep him out of the garbage (magnetic child lock FYI). He even developed the great \u201cparty trick\u201d of running off to pee on our bed if he heard a phone ring, ding or even buzz. This, despite behavioral modification, medication AND SEDATION!!!\nBut, as I was sobbing at the thought of losing him today, I came to realize what makes losing him- this \u201cnot the one\u201d dog- so very very hard for me. He has been the one source of pure positive reinforcement for me, personally, as I have gone through the ups and downs and wear and tear of all the years we have been together. He hasn\u2019t behaved well (for sure!), but he has ALWAYS given ME positive reinforcement\u2026and I needed it!\nI survived vet school, moves, a new job, becoming a mom (x3), buying and operating a business, all-the-while nurturing (surviving!) a marriage with someone going through the same chaos. How many spouses, kids, friends or family meet you EACH AND EVERY DAY with a tail wag and lick (who cares that he just wanted food!!?) when you walk through the door? He gave me positive feedback on the good days and on the bad and I gotta tell you, that can keep an exhausted woman alive.\nHolden has been more than that, of course. He will always be the first dog my boys have had and the first dog my husband and I have had together. He has taught me MANY lessons as a veterinarian that I will use for years to come. In my opinion, he would definitely win any contest to lick a face the longest, especially enjoyable (NOT) when he would have recently visited the cat box (having broken through a baby gate to get there!) or was due for a dental cleaning! He will teach my boys the lesson of death and dying, grief and remembrance. When I hear a phone ding or buzz, you can bet I will always think of him just as those who have had dogs with storm anxiety never hear a rumble without thinking of their own dog.\nWe will all be laughing and crying A LOT over the next few days, weeks and years as we remember Holden. And that\u2026 is good. When I think of the gift of working in the veterinary field it will always be the human-animal bond that I am most grateful for. It displays itself in innumerable ways and I will continue to work each day to help preserve that for my family and for others.",

This is largely because rampant technological advancements have opened up multiple ways in which the industry can reach its target audience. That said, it is increasingly becoming obvious that newspaper companies cannot solely rely on print or digital advertising but need to diversify their revenue streams focusing on video content, events and paid-for-products.\nThe outcome of this approach is hinged on how effectively newspaper companies make the most of the growing use of Internet as a medium to reach business-to-business and business-to-consumer markets.\nNewspaper companies are altering their business models to gain an edge in the current multi-platform media environment, as people now stay updated about current affairs via smartphones, social media and other interactive platforms. For this reason, companies are focusing on creating content for mobile devices, online advertising based on user experience and personalized content to lower their dependence on traditional advertising business.",

        "raw_content": "Since May, when Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina revamped her government\u2019s war on drugs, an estimated 25,000 people have been arbitrarily imprisoned, and at least 200 have died in alleged shootouts.\nBangladesh\u2019s arbitrary actions, including about 200 extrajudicial and \u2018questionable\u2019 killings all allegedly in the name of \u2018war on drugs\u2019 since May 2018 is condemned. Now, the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina\u2019s Cabinet moves to table a Bill that impose the death penalty for drug offences \u2026\nBangladesh to impose death penalty on drug dealers with an eye on the December election\nThe government plans tighter controls on drug trafficking. New bill seeks to stop the sale of \u2018ya ba\u2019, the mad drug. The real goal is to ensure the outgoing government\u2019s victory in next December\u2019s elections. Since mid-May more than 200 people have been killed in \u201cencounter\u201d with the police.\nDhaka (AsiaNews) \u2013 The government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina approved a draft law last Monday imposing the death penalty for drug offences. The official goal is to stop drug use and be tough on methamphetamine dealers.\nSince mid-May, more than 200 people have been shot in the crackdown. Local sources expressed concern to AsiaNewsthat dealers and drug traffickers may be treated summarily.\nDrug dealers \u201chave died in what the authorities call \u2018encounters\u2019 with the police. Those who speak the truth, that these are real shootings, are accused of spreading false information. Police are rough and arrogant. People who have nothing to do with drugs are often involved in roundups.\u201d\n\u201cBehind tougher controls, there is probably an attempt to protect the government ahead of the upcoming December elections.\u201d\nHuman rights groups have criticised the government, comparing its actions to those of another Asian country, namely thePhilippines under Rodrigo Duterte, who is carrying out a brutal campaign against drug dealers.\nOfficially, the fight against drugs is designed to curb the sale of \u201cya ba\u201d, a low-cost drug that combines methamphetamine and caffeine. Known as the mad drug, its causes hallucinations, euphoria, aggression and addiction.\nApproximately 40 million pills were seized last year, but it is estimated that 250-300 million tablets are available on the Bangladesh market. The current maximum penalty for possession is 15 years in prison.\nLocal sources are amazed at the sheer numbers and report that \u201cin the past, we never even heard about drugs. Now it seems that drugs have become the most urgent problem in the country.\u201d\nAccording to experts, the authorities should be more cautious in enforcing the law. For many, the real goal is to control the political debate ahead of the elections. As evidence of this, they cite the police Modus Operandi.\n\u201cIncreasingly, false complaints are filed. When an opposition politician organises a rally, police prepare false charges of assault, arson, threats or possession of illegal weapons against a list of 25 real people, plus 200 unknowns. Some of these are abroad; others are home-bound paraplegics. This gets into the press. What is ridiculous is that these stories are printed even when rallies are not held.\u201d \u2013 Asia News, 12/10/2018\nRehman Asad/Barcroft Images/Barcroft Media/Getty Images\nBangladesh\u2019s Deadly War on Drugs\nOct 24, 2018 NAOMI BURKE-SHYNE\nWhile the death penalty for drugs has existed in Bangladesh for decades, it has rarely been used. This could change dramatically if Parliament approves a government bill that could subject people who use drugs and low-level dealers to the ultimate punishment.\nLONDON \u2013 The audio quality is poor and the sound of gunshots muffled, but the agony in Ekramul Haque\u2019s voice is unmistakable. On May 26, while speaking with his family by phone, Haque, an elected official in southern Bangladesh, was gunned down by police in an apparent extrajudicial killing.\nBangladeshi authorities insist Haque was a drug dealer who died in an exchange of gunfire, but the audio evidence \u2013 captured by his wife as she listened to her husband die \u2013 suggests that the officers involved killed him and then planted drugs at the scene. The recording casts a disturbing light on Bangladesh\u2019s new drug-control strategy.\nSince May, when Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina revamped her government\u2019s war on drugs, an estimated 25,000 people have been arbitrarily imprisoned, and at least 200 have died in alleged shootouts. The parallels to President Rodrigo Duterte\u2019sbrutal drug crackdown in the Philippines are chilling. There, human rights are routinely violated and more than 20,000 peoplehave been slaughtered since 2016. While Duterte\u2019s campaign has drawn international condemnation, Hasina\u2019s purge has been subject to less scrutiny.\nThe relative lack of international criticism seems to have emboldened the government to act even more ruthlessly. In early October, the authorities doubled down by proposing a draft law, which has now been submitted to Parliament, to expand the use of capital punishment for drug offenses. Under the proposal, possession of more than five grams of \u201cyaba\u201d \u2013 a methamphetamine-based drug targeted by the government\u2019s crackdown \u2013 could be punishable by death.\nWhile the death penalty for drugs has existed in Bangladesh for decades, it hasrarely been used. This could change dramatically if Parliament approves the government\u2019s bill. The ferocity of the authorities\u2019 anti-drug campaign, together with the extremely low threshold for yaba possession, means that even people who use drugs and low-level dealers could face execution.\nDespite what governments claim, the death penalty for drug offenses does not target kingpins. It is the poor and the most vulnerable who suffer. This would certainly be the case in Bangladesh, where some Rohingya refugees \u2013 who have fled horrific persecution in neighboring Myanmar \u2013 rely on the drug trade for economic survival.\nMoreover, there is simply no evidence that the death penalty for drug use lowers rates of consumption or trafficking. Almost 4,000 people have been executed for drug offenses in the past decade, and the UN Office on Drugs and Crime admits that the drug market is still booming. Death penalty laws are little more than grotesque grandstanding by governments seeking to appear \u201ctough\u201d on drugs while blindly ignoring the facts.\nBangladesh\u2019s legislation move would move the country to the extreme fringe of the international community and buck the global trend toward abolishing capital punishment. According to Harm Reduction International\u2019s research, of the 33 countries that retain the death penalty for drug offenses, only a handful \u2013 mainly Saudi Arabia and China \u2013 actually carry out executions. Most other countries have changed tack.\nFor example, drug-related executions in Iran fell dramatically after judicial reforms late last year (although the country still applies the death penalty for other offenses). Meanwhile, Malaysia\u2019s cabinet is considering a bill to abolish the death penalty for all crimes. If it passes, the measure would commute the sentences of the 1,267 people currently on death row in the country, including 900 convicted of drug-related crimes.\nUnfortunately, Bangladesh is not alone in favoring extreme measures. Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena recently said that his country would end a 42-year moratorium on executions and begin killing people convicted of drug crimes. While it is unclear if Sirisena will follow through, his threat is part of a worrying trend among populists who view the death penalty as a panacea for the drug trade. In a rambling speech earlier this year, US President Donald Trump suggested that he, too, supports such a policy.\nThe European Union has urged Sri Lanka and Bangladesh to reconsider their strategies, arguing that \u201cthe death penalty doesn\u2019t act as a deterrent to crime, and any error of judgment is impossible to correct.\u201d These are wise words, and countries everywhere \u2013 especially EU member states \u2013 must do more to reinforce this view.\nBangladesh\u2019s Parliament still has an opportunity to reject the draft law and move the country toward a more effective drug-control policy. Enacting the death penalty would only exacerbate an already deteriorating human-rights situation. Around the world, countries are recognizing that executions, much less extrajudicial killings, have no effect on the drug trade. Bangladesh must recognize this, too.\nNaomi Burke-Shyne is Executive Director of Harm Reduction International. \u2013 Project Syndicate, 24/10/2018\nBangladesh Leave a comment\n\u2190 Singapore, Stop Execution of Malaysian Prabu N Pathmanathan\nJapan hangs 2 inmates, matching highest-ever year\u2019s total of 15 \u2192",

After all, if we can put a man on the moon, we certainly can give 5 seconds of our time to recognize our fellow brothers and sisters in arms for giving the ultimate sacrifice. Our nation lost 86 West Point graduates and 16 US Naval Academy alumni, as a result of this war.\nHopefully, the Brigade will give a collective recognition, with the eyes of a proud nation watching, to our West Point brothers and sisters in arms that have and continue to sacrifice so much.

(Shota Suzuki and Hironori Washizaki) LIMITED\nWorkshops are effective in learning the human and social factors of software engineering [1]. However, their effectiveness in learning agile development in particular has not yet been determined, despite the fact that numerous agile development workshops have been held over the years. In this paper, we analyze the effectiveness of agile development workshops through an experiment, and show that the workshops are indeed effective at learning agile development. Self-study is another commonly used method to learn something new. Therefore, we compare the effectiveness of workshops with that of self-study to better illustrate the effectiveness of agile development workshops. In our experiment, we examine 7 workshop subjects and 8 self-study subjects, and compare their scores on the Agile mind check, which is a method used to measure their degree of mastery of agile development. As a result, we demonstrate the effectiveness of agile development workshops, especially those that simulate actual experiences. We also show that workshops are more effective than self-study.\nStudent, Waseda University\nDept.

        "raw_content": "Jon C. Calhoun\nSenior, North Powder, Oregon\nBeing from a town barely tipping the scales of 500 residents and from a graduating class of 13 students, the idea of coming to Oregon State University was downright frightening. When I came to visit the campus, I walked down oak tree and rhododendron filled paths, toured through historical buildings, and spoke one-on-one with faculty, right then was when I knew that the College of Agricultural Sciences at Oregon State University was for me. I was raised on a Quarter Horse and Club-Lamb ranch in north-eastern Oregon, which is where I established a vibrant love for agriculture, particularly business realm of agriculture. Now a senior at Oregon State University, I am studying Agricultural Business Management with a minor in Leadership. Aside the Agricultural Executive Council, I am actively involved with the Agriculture Future of America, I Love Farmers\u2026They Feed My Soul, Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity, and am an Ambassador for Agriculture, Forestry, and Natural Resources. Within the College of Agricultural Sciences, the instructors and other students are able to provide a hometown feeling even with a student population boasting almost 25,000. My experiences at OSU have led to personal and professional growth, and have developed lifelong skills that will aid me throughout my future. Oregon State one of only two universities in the nation to be a Sea, Sun, Space, and Land Grant Institution \u2013 I am honored to serve as the Agricultural Executive Council President at one of the top agricultural institutions in America.\nAshley Florence\nSenior, Hermiston, Oregon\nI grew up in Hermiston, Oregon where I was an active member of the Hermiston FFA chapter throughout high school. I competed in numerous skill contests, as well as, serving as vice president for my chapter. My favorite memories in FFA came from showing cattle at junior livestock shows and county fairs. I chose Oregon State University because of my passion for agriculture and agriculture education. My major is Agricultural Sciences with an Animal Science minor. I plan to become an agriculture teacher and FFA advisor. I am currently the Vice President of Ag Exec, CFFA member, and a member of Kappa Delta sorority. My past leadership positions have helped me grow into the person I am today. As a senior, I look forward to the coming year and I feel confident that we can accomplish our goals.\nDanielle Lorenz\nDirector of New Fields\nJunior, Banks, Oregon\nGrowing up in the small town of Banks, Oregon I have always had a passion for agriculture and more specifically livestock. Choosing Oregon State University was an easy decision for me because my older sister was already a student and the college offered exactly everything I wanted. I love Oregon State and more specifically the College of Agricultural Sciences because everyone is so friendly and helpful, it makes the huge school seem much smaller. After choosing a major in animal science, I immediately started getting involved in clubs and organizations. I am currently a member of the Steer-A-Year club and the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. This past year I rode on the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association Team and won the National Title with four other members, it was the first time in Oregon State history. I am honored to serve as director of New Fields and hope to make positive changes to the blog throughout the year.\nDerek Burbank\nJunior, Dallas, Oregon\nAgricultural Sceinces\nHi, My name is Derek Burbank from Dallas Oregon, where I grew up on a small family farm. For as long as I can remember I have been involved in agriculture in one way or another. Weather that was showing animals at fair or being part of my FFA chapter, agriculture has been a way of life. With a past like mine, where else to go to school than at OSU College of Agricultural Sciences? My passion for teaching others about agriculture and giving youth the skills they need to be successful in any career, is what gives me the drive to become an agriculture advisor.\nKatie Bartholomew\nSenior, Bend, Oregon\nAgriculture Business Management, minor in Animal Sciences\nAfter graduating from Mountain View High School in 2009, I knew I wanted to\ncontinue my education and broaden my horizons in the agriculture industry. Being an active member of the National Junior Angus Association, as well as the American Angus Association and holding various leadership positions through the Bend FFA program and Oregon Junior Angus Association has allowed me to develop a diverse skill set \u2013 both in and outside the classroom. With the endless opportunities Oregon State has to offer, I knew my skills would continue to grow and develop within the university. As a proud member of Beaver Nation, I am currently a senior studying Agricultural Business Management with a minor in Animal Sciences. Being active in the College of Agricultural Sciences, I have become a member of the Oregon State Livestock Judging Team, alongside active involvement with the Agricultural Executive Council, Young Cattlemen\u2019s Association, Steer-A-Year Club and Meat Science Club. Thanks to Oregon State, I know my experiences here have led to personal and professional growth, and helped to develop lifelong skills that will assist me in my future career. I am honored and looking forward to serving as the Director of Correspondence of the Agricultural Executive Council!\nKelsie White\nDirector of Ag Day\nSophomore, Baker City, Oregon\nMajoring in agriculture education, I am currently a sophomore dual enrolled with LBCC and OSU. I am an active member of the Young Cattlemen\u2019s Association, the Ag Ed Club, and Collegiate FFA where I hold the office of Reporter. This year I am very excited to be the Director of Ag Day on the Agricultural Executive Council. Growing up on a commercial cow/calf operation in eastern Oregon, I have always had a strong interest and involvement in agriculture. In high school I became very active in my FFA chapter and served as the secretary and vice president. Through FFA I have established competitive club lamb flock, which I still maintain today and also received my State and American FFA degrees. While attending the National FFA Convention in 2010, I realized that agriculture education was the career path exactly right for me. With Oregon State offering one of the best agriculture education programs in the nation, as well as extensive hands on industry opportunities via clubs & teams, I knew it was a perfect fit. I am extremely passionate about agriculture and love all aspects of it. I look forward to continuing my involvement with the College of Agricultural Sciences, as well as OSU as a whole and anticipate a very fun and productive year! GO BEAVS!\nSenior, Springfield, Oregon\nMy name is Kenzie Smith and I am currently in my fourth and final year here at Oregon State University. I grew up an hour south of Corvallis in Springfield, Oregon where my family raised and showed beef cattle, which is what started my interest in agriculture. Since I was a young child I always knew that I want to work with animals and had dreams of becoming a veterinarian. As I continued to grow up I realized how much of a passion I have for the animal production side of agriculture. After I graduated from high school there was no question where I wanted to go to school, I wanted to go to a university that offered a great agriculture program and was not too far from my family, Oregon State was perfect. Over the past three years I have been here, OSU continues to confirm that I made a great choice. While being in school I have had so many opportunities to not only learn about numerous aspects of agriculture, but to meet great students and faculty as well. I have been involved in many different programs and clubs here such as, Steer-A-Year, Young Cattlemen\u2019s Association, Collegiate 4-H, Meat Science Club, Pre-Veterinarian Medicine Association, Dairy Club, and Livestock Judging Team. I feel that all of these experiences have led to a great deal of personal and professional growth. I am excited to serve as the Director of Finance for the Agricultural Executive council at this wonderful university.",

The bus commute will be long but book-infested and both commuting buses are frequent service routes (every 15 minutes or better for most of the day, 7 days a week) so I shouldn't need to deal with much in the way of annoying bus-logistics. I think this will work put pretty well. Also, 3 out of 4 grocery stores that I'm likely to shop at regularly are on the bus lines that pass by my apartment (WinCo looks to be a car-thing from here, but I mostly go there to buy bulk flax seeds and junk food every few months so I'm not too annoyed). Organic eggs are now only a half mile away, and they used to be 30. I am pleased. Also on my bus line: Moonstruck Chocolates and a 24-hour donut shop. I will lose no weight with this move no matter how much I avoid my car.\nI also think I need to have a housewarming party! Details to follow in a filtered post. If you want on the party filter and don't see that post in the next few minutes, comment here and I'll add you (ability to attend my parties is not required for being on the party filter).",

Xi arrived in Portugal on Tuesday for a two-day state visit. (Xinhua/Li Xueren)\nChinese President Xi Jinping was greeted with full military honors in Lisbon. Portugal was the last stop on a four-nation diplomatic tour.\nThe country was looking for more trade and investment after a financial crisis seven years ago. CGTN\u2019s Al Goodman reported on how the Belt and Road initiative will be a big part of the state visit.\nChinese President Xi Jinping and the first lady, Peng Liyuan, eased into their last stop of a four-country tour. Arriving in the Portuguese capital of Lisbon, from Panama, there were greetings at the airport and then off to a downtown hotel for some personal time. Security was tight with a section of the city under heavy guard. The local Chinese community turned out to welcome them.\nThe official welcome was later in the day. President Xi reviewed an honor guard with Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa at the 16th century Jeronimos Monastery on the outskirts of town. Xi also laid a wreath at the tomb of famed poet Luis de Camoes.\nThe two presidents met soon after, embracing a rich history between the two countries. They were about to mark 40 years of diplomatic relations and nearly two decades since Portugal handed over Macao to China.\n\u201cPortugal has a strategic maritime position for the Belt and Road Initiative, and there\u2019s an opportunity to have common positions for growth together in several areas and also with third countries,\u201d said the Chinese leader.\nThe first day for President Xi in Portugal had a lot of pomp and ceremony in locations that are national symbols for the Portuguese people. But the real business of the trip was scheduled for Wednesday. He will meet Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa for talks. Numerous bilateral and business accords are expected to be signed.\nAnalysts said that Portugal\u2019s deepwater port at Sines will likely come up in the discussions. It\u2019s a huge harbor and there are plans for even more container capacity. It\u2019s a potential Belt and Road location for China.\n\u201cAs we see it, and most European countries see it in that way too, is a Chinese program. So we are ready to cooperate with Belt and Road initiative, but we look at it as a Chinese program,\u201d explained Carlos Gaspar from the Portuguese Institute of International Relations.\nThe first day ended with a gala dinner in honor of President Xi and the first lady, breaking bread together and trying to push the bilateral relations forward.\nFrench President backs off controversial green fuel tax \u00bb",

        "title": "American Energy Coalition - Environmental Study: Leaking Gas Pipelines Costing State Consumers Millions, Adding Air Pollution",
        "raw_content": "American Energy Coalition - March 9th, 2017\nLeaky natural gas pipelines are costing Connecticut consumers millions of dollars a year, according to a new study reported recently by the Hartford Courant. In Hartford alone, natural gas pipes leak an estimated 43,000 cubic feet of gas every day.\n\u201cThe research, commissioned by the Sierra Club of Connecticut, argues that gas leaks are not only costing ratepayers but also add to air pollution that is a major factor in global warming,\u201d the article states.\nThe study\u2019s authors maintain that leaking pipes are a significant problem. \u201cIn a one-month period, we found about 700 leaks in Hartford,\u201d Gale Ridge, a scientist who worked on the study, told the Courant. Ridge said that although gas leaks are supposed to be reported to the state Public Utilities Regulatory Authority, that agency listed only 139 gas leaks for all of last year in Hartford.\nEnvironmental groups that include the Sierra Club have been opposing efforts to build multibillion-dollar pipelines to bring more natural gas into Connecticut and New England.\nUnder a 2014 state law, gas companies estimate the amount of \u201clost and unaccounted for gas\u201d that escapes from their pipelines, and then bill customers for the cost of the lost fuel. \u201cUnfortunately, this practice discourages repair of leaks because companies are rewarded financially for leaking,\u201d according to the report\u2019s authors.\n\u201cMethane is a major contributor to the greenhouse gases that most scientific research has linked to climate change,\u201d the Courant wrote. \u201cNatural gas is 97 percent methane, and environmental critics of the natural gas industry have repeatedly warned that pipelines and the \u2018fracking\u2019 of wells that produce the gas are major contributors to air pollution.\u201d\n\u201cThe energy giants, UI and Eversource, who own all the local gas distribution companies in the state, get paid for leaking methane, making our electricity more expensive and our bills higher, while at the same time causing climate change from the emissions,\u201d said Martha Klein, chair of the Connecticut chapter of the Sierra Club.",

        "raw_content": "Where did the Ojibwe dream catcher come from?\nTerry Lusty, Sweetgrass Writer, Edmonton\nTen years ago one of the most popular and marketable Native crafts items was the dream catcher.\nIt is still popular, as evidenced by a Jan. 29-31 workshop at the Alberta Aboriginal Head Start conference in Edmonton. It was run by Bev Longboat, the executive director at the Niwasa (Little Ones) Head Start Program at Six Nations Reserve near Brantford, Ont., and by Alice Noah, originally from Walpole Island, Ont., but now living in Fort McMurray.\nAs the legend goes, according to Longboat, \"there was a very special woman who was responsible for the children. Her name was Spider Woman, a name likely given as was customary in Indian tradition.\n\"Her job,\" said Longboat, \"was to web these dream catchers and hang them above a baby's cradle board while the infant was sleeping. As its popularity increased, however, it proved too much for Spider Woman to take on because she could not travel from one location to another and try to look after all of the children.\n\"So, at that time, she passed the webbing (technique) down to the aunties, grandmothers and the mothers, to look after the webbing for the children and the young.\"\nThe dream catchers were made of willow.\n\"The little opening at the centre of the web allowed the good dreams to pass through and filter down through the feather(s) hanging from the dream catcher, and into the dreaming minds of the children. It was another stage of life that a child went through,\" explained Longboat.\nIn constructing the dream catcher, she continued, \"significant was the number of points where the sinew was wrapped around the willow.\n\"In the original story,\" she stated, \"there were eight points for her eight legs. Still others used seven points for the seven grandfathers or the seven prophecies. Some used five for the five sky shapes, some have used 13 as signifying the moons and some used 28 for the lunar months.\"\nAs for the shape of the original dream catcher, \"it was made in a circle ? a representation of the sun that travels across the earth.\"\nBut, it's not uncommon to find them in a tear shape.\n\"The traditional dream catcher,\" she added, \"was between three-and-a-half and five inches in diameter. Any larger, it loses its significance, its traditional value or you could say, the power of the dream catcher itself.\"\nOver time, things about the dream catcher have changed. Things were added to it.\nNoah mentions the significance of the three beads that were woven into a dream catcher. \"The three beads stand for our three fires ? the Potowotami, Ottawa and Chippewa Nations. So, when I do crafts, I put three of them on my work.\"\nWhile the number of feathers attached to a dream catcher may vary, some crafts people only use one to symbolize knowledge or wisdom.\n\"It's entirely up to you on how many you add on,\" said Longboat. \"Just about everything you put on there has a significance, depending on the person doing the webbing.\"\nBut before picking any willow(s), one should make a tobacco or cloth offering to the spirit world.",

        "raw_content": "Why One Man Wants These Kids To See \u2018Black Panther\u2019 And What He\u2019s Doing To Make It Happen\n\"You can\u2019t dream about becoming something unless you\u2019ve seen it.\"\nThere's a massive amount of hype surrounding Marvel's upcoming Black Panther movie \u2014 and rightly so. While not everyone is lucky enough to afford to see the beauty of Wakanda at the cinema, one New York City resident has made sure that underprivileged children are able to see this diverse film on the big screen for the most profound reason.\n\"I knew that I wanted to do something for Black Panther because inclusion and representation are of the utmost importance to me,\" Frederick Joseph told A Plus. Joseph is the man behind the viral GoFundMe page you've probably seen trending everywhere, raising money for the Boys and Girls Club of Harlem \u2014 and other clubs around the country \u2014 to see the Chadwick Boseman-starring flick. This, as you'll recall, is similar to how Chance the Rapper helped kids see Get Out, as well as how an inspiring teen and Octavia Spencer ensured that kids got to see Hidden Figures.\n\"I feel as though they are very honestly the fuel that drives dreams. You can't dream about becoming something unless you've seen it. You can't have a wild dream unless you believe in it,\" Joseph added. \"So, for me, having a movie like Black Panther \u2014 where you have not only a Black superhero but a Black king who is guarded by an all-African female guard of the fiercest warriors in the country, in what's the most technically advanced place in the world \u2014 it's just a phenomenal story and it's important that kids see that and see themselves in that role.\"\nPhoto via Disney/Marvel Studios\nJoseph, a 28-year-old marketing consultant, revealed he chose to give to the Boys and Girls Club of Harlem because of their \"steadfast\" dedication to doing great work for decades and for the fact that they're name is \"synonymous\" with helping underprivileged children \u2014 and, for the Harlem branch specifically, underprivileged children of color.\n\"It's so important that these kids believe in themselves,\" Joseph explained, also calling out films like recent Pixar darling Coco, the upcoming female-fronted Captain Marvel, and 2017's smash hit Wonder Woman. Movies like these, he notes, help show children what is possible and what they can achieve. \"It's not about someone telling you what you can be, it's about believing that you can be anything you want to be.\"\nWith the money raised \u2014 Joseph's GoFundMe has garnered more than $35,000 with an original goal of $10,000 \u2014 many underprivileged children in Harlem, as well as all around the nation, will get to see Black Panther. With the campaign going viral, Joseph was able to partner with GoFundMe for the #BlackPantherChallenge to spread the love (and money) around.\n\"Honestly, it's been a humbling experience,\" Joseph continued. \"I'm so happy and overwhelmed by the support that I decided it was time to do something bigger \u2014 something that can affect even more communities on a national level. It's important that all these kids go and see the film and see other films that are coming out and see themselves represented there.\"\nThe first 10 accounts created with a unique link from Joseph's campaign will be given $100 from GoFundMe to start raising money for needy kids in their area, thereby spreading Joseph's idea and helping to keep the conversation around representation going all across the country.\nAs for the fact that Black Panther is more than a month away \u2014 it comes out nationwide on February 16 \u2014 and is already breaking records as the best-selling Marvel movie of all time in regards to pre-sale tickets, Joseph isn't surprised in the least. After all, we've seen similar things happen lately with diverse films like the aforementioned Hidden Figures and Get Out as well as Girls Trip, just to name a few.\n\"It's a moment in time, it truly is. Not just for representation and inclusion, but for showing that telling stories for underrepresented groups is not only important not just from the things I've been talking about but also as a money-making engine \u2014 and this showed it,\" Joseph added. \"We come out and we support \u2014 this has been shown.\"\nTags: gofundme, random acts of kindness, marvel, black panther, chadwick boseman, diversity in hollywood, diversity in film, a plus original, minorities in film, people of color in film, minorities in hollywood, people of color in hollywood, representation matters, diversity in movies, marvel cinematic universe, frederick joseph, boys and girls club of harlem\nThere\u2019s Still Not Enough Women In Behind-The-Camera Jobs In Hollywood \u2014 But There's Hope\nThe solution isn't that difficult.\nMorning Spark Samantha Leffler\n9 Science Stories We're Psyched About In 2018\nTaylor Swift Teams Up With BFF Ed Sheeran And Future For Jetsetting 'End Game' Music Video\nFrom Miami to Tokyo to London.",

        "raw_content": "Home Business Humanitarian Intervention: A Pretext to Serve Self Interest\nHarun Yahya in this thought-provoking article analyze scenarios where powerful states use humanitarian interventions as a pretext to protect their own interests.\nEvents in Syria and Iraq due to the terror organization ISIL have once more raised the question of humanitarian intervention, the most controversial question in international relations.\nInternational law is based upon respect for national sovereignty, and there can be no interference in states\u2019 internal affairs: Humanitarian intervention is an exception to this principle of international law. The concept of humanitarian intervention represents the use of force by one or more countries against another country to prevent wide-scale human rights abuses.\nSEE ALSO: The Position of Turkey in the War against ISIS\nAlthough the concept of humanitarian intervention appears to be very clear and well intentioned, it also involves a number of rather controversial elements, which can be set out as follows:\nIs humanitarian intervention a means by which nations can conceal their self-interested attitudes?\nThe most controversial factor causing humanitarian intervention to become controversial is uncertainty and doubt over the circumstances warranting intervention. All countries today follow policies intended to further their own interests; this raises a question mark right from the start over some countries\u2019 interventions based on humanitarian pretexts.\nThe intervention in Libya was obviously not solely intended to free Libyans from oppression by the late Muammar Gaddafi. Behind the concept of humanitarian intervention also lay other motives, such as obtaining a share of Libya\u2019s oil revenues or being able to participate in tenders in the post-Gaddafi period.\nSEE ALSO: Individual Freedoms and the Regulations on Clothing\nDo double standards apply in humanitarian intervention?\nLooking at the period before and after the Arab Spring in particular, we see several severe crises when humanitarian intervention was ruled out, and not even considered as an option. The reasons for this may be countries that might have been able to intervene regarding an intervention as not necessary as the situation was not a threat to their national interests, or fearing being unable to secure benefits such as oil or mineral resources after such intervention or the media and public-opinion shapers not thinking very highly of such interventions. This makes the concept of humanitarian intervention controversial in political and ethical terms.\nThe coalition forces that intervened against Gaddafi in Libya did so on humanitarian grounds. However, those same countries are turning a blind eye to the oppression by the Assad regime, even though it is a far grimmer situation there.\nSEE ALSO: Azerbaijan and Turkey\u2019s Shared Dream: TANAP, the Project of the 21st Century\nThe USA invaded Iraq on the pretext of the existence of weapons of mass destruction. When it emerged that no such weapons existed in Iraq, it came up with new pretexts, such as freeing Iraq from the tyranny of Saddam Hussein and building a democratic administration. Yet many more people have to date died under the occupation than under Saddam\u2019s regime, and tortures far worse than those in Saddam\u2019s time were inflicted at Abu Gharib prison. Far from being a country governed by democratic means, Iraq is now suffering even worse turmoil, conflict and a very real threat of division.\nOn the other hand, while completely justified humanitarian interventions were carried out in Kosovo and Bosnia, the Turkish operation aimed at rescuing the Turkish Cypriots, carried out under very similar circumstances, was treated as an invasion and is regrettably still regarded as such by many.\nThe PKK terror organization has killed more than 30,000 people in Turkey, and has burned down and destroyed a good many homes and work places. Yet for a long time Western countries have ignored Turkish demands for intervention against the PKK, and have even criticized Turkey\u2019s attitude toward the PKK terrorists. Turkey has been the focal point of a great deal of pressure from the Western world in recent months for not intervening in the fighting between the PKK-PYD and ISIL in the Syrian town of Kobane.\nTurkey has even been threatened with expulsion from NATO for not becoming involved in the conflict militarily. The German Foreign Affairs Minister stated that a ground operation in Kobane was essential, but that they would not be taking part, since young Germans were too precious; immediately after that statement the same minister then said that Turkish and Arab troops should intervene. All these examples show that things other than pure good intentions lie behind humanitarian interventions, as well as the existence of a double standard in international relations.\nOther questions and problems concerning humanitarian intervention\nIn addition to problems regarding the content of the concept of humanitarian intervention, there are also technical problems. What stage do violations have to reach for there to be an intervention? What countries should intervene, and how? How is the intervention to be legitimized? When will it come to an end? How will the costs of the intervention be met? Examples taking place all over the world show that these questions all have different answers in different circumstances.\nRegardless of whether it is justified, humanitarian intervention also carries the danger of not itself being humanitarian. Although the interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan were said to have been based on humanitarian concerns, hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians died because of those interventions and millions more were displaced.\nEven worse times likely await civilians in Syria and Iraq today during the current intervention that has been initiated against ISIL. Air strikes lead to civilian deaths and are not having the expected effect on ISIL. Everyone also knows that a ground operation will simply increase civilian casualties.\nThere is a more humanitarian method than intervention\nInstead of arguing about the need for humanitarian intervention and the methods involved, the security of all nations can be established using other means.\nFirst of all, countries must prevent their citizens from being brought up devoid of all moral sensitivities, humane feelings, compassion, love, affection and empathy. Members of all faiths must be taught \u2013 from an early age \u2013 that killing people, forcing them from their homelands and robbing and torturing them is not only wrong, but morally indefensible.\nIn a world where people are taught that they can live in peace and love regardless of all their differences, there will be no more need to use force to rescue people or question the sincerity of interventions. The conditions requiring interventions will have been obviated right from the outset and humanitarian interventions will become merely a curiosity of history.\n(About the Author- Harun Yahya has authored more than 300 books translated in 73 languages on politics, religion and science.

But as the outcome from the first criminal convictions brought about by the Pensions Regulator (TPR), they are significant.\nBoth cases hinged on refusal to provide documents as requested under section 72 of the Pensions Act 2004 without a reasonable excuse, which is a criminal offence under section 77 of the Act. Although the regulator has previously made some use of its power under section 72 to demand information, it has not in the past taken failures further by applying section 77.\nRosalind Connor commented, \u201cThis is part of a broader trend, by which the regulator wants to ensure that its powers are exercised. Most of us are aware that the response which is most likely to provoke further and more aggressive reactions from the regulator is to give no response. These cases strongly illustrate this.\u201d\nShe added: \u201cThis is not to say that receipt of a section 72 notice means that everything has to be handed over \u2013 there are some exceptions \u2013 but it really must not be ignored.\u201d\nRosalind said that immediate dialogue with advisers is a vital first step, \u201cand, if information can\u2019t be provided, or not on time, it is really very important to start a dialogue with TPR to explain and agree a way forward.\u201d\nRead the full article in Pensions Insight here.",

        "raw_content": "It is hard to believe I\u2019m actually awake! After twenty years of going away to work, I now have my office in our home. Often I will hear a quiet knocking on the door. I open it, and a little one will come in. After a hug and updating me on the latest news, the child is gone.\nYears ago, God put the desire in my heart to work, vocationally, out of our home, but I saw no further direction. So we waited and waited. We would pray, \u201cLord, we believe You are giving us this desire. We will wait until You show us clearly what to do.\u201d Then, all of a sudden three years ago, we were given the leading to launch a business. What was strange was that I was working full time. I sure didn\u2019t have time to do any real work in a business we would start. There was barely time to put together the paperwork to set it up.\nAfter our oldest son graduated from high school, we were able to have him contract out through our new business. God had us put our business in place prior to our needing it. It was the perfect vehicle for his contracting. However, we felt that wasn\u2019t going to be the only purpose for the business. I still wanted to be home working full time for the business, but I clearly believed God was saying \u201cnot now.\u201d\nOn the twenty-first of January 1997, God led me to take a stand at my job that we thought might cost me that job. Unfortunately, we were not prepared to be without an income, but we knew God would provide if that was His will. To our total amazement, the potential of losing the job dragged on all year. One day I would think I was going to be fired, and the next it would quiet down!\nIt was such a wonderful time of learning to rest and trust in my Lord Jesus\u2019 care. I can\u2019t remember one night of losing sleep over it. Don\u2019t get me wrong. It wasn\u2019t that I didn\u2019t care, or that I had my head in the clouds. There was just peace about it and thankfulness that Christ was dealing with the situation.\nThe next thing we knew, they were no longer talking about firing me. Now there was talk of laying me off. The funny thing was that this was great news since there would be some financial consideration with a layoff as opposed to being fired. We had been praying, \u201cLord, just make it clear to us that You really want me to leave.\u201d What could be clearer than to have your employer lay you off? Right?\nThen my employer decided to give me a choice between another job and a layoff. This was not according to our plan at all! God was supposed to make it absolutely clear by not giving us any room for a decision. This new twist brought some real earnestness to our prayers. Finally, God gave Teri and me full peace that I was to leave and come home.\nI stand in awe of how the Lord has directed over the last year. It would be very easy to laugh as I look up the road ahead. I have told some that I feel like I\u2019m \u201cout of the boat\u201d right now. I find my competitors and other challenges to be the \u201cwaves.\u201d However, as long as I keep my eyes on the Lord Jesus, I have real joy and peace.\nI know some of you may face similar challenges. My encouragement to you is: don\u2019t be concerned with your perceived consequences to a decision, but look only to the Lord for His direction. That is the only thing that matters and will enable you to be calm in the midst of a storm. If I did not have the clear assurance I\u2019m here because God wants me here, I would be troubled indeed. Our prayer has been and will continue to be, \u201cLord, what do You want us to do that will bring You the most glory?\u201d\nIt seems that I can\u2019t let a year go by without a Mom\u2019s Corner dealing with a wife\u2019s need for a meek and quiet spirit. 1 Peter 3:4 says, \u201cBut let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.\u201d\nI wonder how many of us were born with meek and quiet spirits. I know I was not! This is something that God began pointing out in my life several years ago. He did this in what I considered a most unusual way. He began to make me aware of my interactions with my husband, viewing them as an outsider would.\nHere are some things I heard myself saying to my husband:\n\u201cHoney, who was that on the phone? What did they want? Well, what did you say?\u201d\n\u201cSteven, did you see what Joseph just did? No matter how many times I tell him he still does it.\u201d\n\u201cHave you made a decision yet? I asked you about this on Monday, and I am feeling like I should know what we are going to do.\u201d\nI needed to learn, and am still in training, to have a meek and quiet spirit. Often a meek and quiet spirit, for me, would translate into a quiet mouth. If my husband chooses to share a phone conversation with me, I am pleased to have my curiosity satisfied. If he does not, it is good for me to trust God to give me information that I am interested in or might need to know. Should Steve forget to tell me something important, it may become known at some point. Then if he feels badly about having forgotten to tell me, it is a lesson from the Lord, not a controlling wife!\nWhen Steve was home, I wanted him to be the one to correct the children. However, I also felt it my duty to point out what the children were doing that needed his attention. How much better it is when I am quiet. It is quite presumptive of me to think I know best what the children are doing that would need correction. This has been clearly illustrated to me during our evening Bible time. I wanted to keep telling the little children to be quiet, sit still, or perhaps put down a toy. You know what? My speaking to the child was as disruptive to our Bible time as what the child was doing. I found that if I would just sit very quietly with my mouth tightly closed, Steve would take care of anything that was a distraction to him. It is a great relief to not have to be \u201cin charge\u201d but just to sit and let my husband do what God has called him to.\nIt is a relief, but it is not easy! Everything within me so often wants to push, control, and some would say, nag. Usually, if I will be quiet, all will work out just fine the way Steve does it. The times it might not, it is so much better to have that realization come from the Lord and not from me.\nAnother area that has been difficult for me is to learn not to correct my husband in front of others\u2013even sweetly. What does it matter if we did this thing on Monday or Wednesday night, as I would be prone to point out if he said the wrong one? I have discovered that, even if it does matter, it is better to be quiet and maintain our testimony than to correct my husband in public. There is seldom anything that important. Truly, if misinformation was given, I believe it would be better for my husband to call the person later and correct it than for me to have spoken up publicly.\nDespite knowing I do not want to do this, as recently as Saturday morning this happened. Steve was driving a group of moms and girls from our church to a baby shower because of bad road conditions. I stepped into his conversation to clarify something I thought the ladies might misunderstand. Almost as quickly as the words were out of my mouth they seemed to shout back at me in accusation. I am glad, because I do want to learn these lessons. In my pride, I do not like to continually fail in something that is pretty cut and dried\u2013don\u2019t correct your husband in public, including in front of the children!\nSomething amazing has happened over these past three years that God has had me in this training course, Meek and Quiet Spirit 101. Steve\u2019s love for me has grown. It has been so exciting for me to see God use an area where He showed me I needed to become obedient. He has poured out His blessing in a way I did not foresee.\nMay I encourage each of you who are wives to honor, respect, and love your husband by asking the Lord to teach you to have a meek and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in His sight. May we treat our husbands as our leaders and not be controlling. May it never be said by an outsider watching our interactions with our husbands, \u201cI know she wears the pants in that home.\u201d\nTagged: Meek and Quiet Spirit",

        "raw_content": "Real-time Bayesian State Estimation of Uncertain Dynamical Systems\nChing, Jianye and Beck, James L. and Porter, Keith A. and Shaikhutdinov, Rustem (2004) Real-time Bayesian State Estimation of Uncertain Dynamical Systems. California Institute of Technology , Pasadena, CA. http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechEERL:EERL-2004-01\nThe focus of this report is real-time Bayesian state estimation using nonlinear models. A recently developed method, the particle filter, is studied that is based on Monte Carlo simulation. Unlike the well-known extended Kalman filter, it is applicable to highly nonlinear systems with non-Gaussian uncertainties. Recently developed techniques that improve the convergence of the particle filter simulations are also introduced and discussed. Comparisons between the particle filter and the extended Kalman filter are made using several numerical examples of nonlinear systems. The results indicate that the particle filter provides consistent state and parameter estimates for highly nonlinear systems, while the extended Kalman filter does not. The particle filter is applied to a real-data case study: a 7-story hotel whose structural system consists of non-ductile reinforced-concrete moment frames, one of which was severely damaged during the 1994 Northridge earthquake. Two identification models are proposed: a timevarying linear model and a simplified time-varying nonlinear degradation model. The latter is derived from a nonlinear finite-element model of the building previously developed at Caltech. For the former model, the resulting performance is poor since the parameters need to vary significantly with time in order to capture the structural degradation of the building during the earthquake. The latter model performs better because it is able to characterize this degradation to a certain extent even with its parameters fixed. Once again, the particle filter provides consistent state and parameter estimates, in contrast to the extended Kalman filter. It is concluded that for a state estimation procedure to be successful, at least two factors are essential: an appropriate estimation algorithm and a suitable identification model. Finally, recorded motions from the 1994 Northridge earthquake are used to illustrate how to do real-time performance evaluation by computing estimates of the repair costs and probability of component damage for the hotel.",

        "raw_content": "Ready for a Summer Glow? Learn How to Get a Healthy Tan\nThe days are getting warmer, the sun is staying out longer, and you are pulling your summer clothes out for the season. The only problem is, your winter skin is about as reflective as a stark-white piece of paper and you are suddenly left longing for that sun-kissed look. If you are like a lot of people looking for a tan, you will go to great lengths to get that bronzed hue before summer settles in, but some ways of getting tan are not so healthy for your skin. Here are a few things you need to know about getting a healthy tan.\nAre There Ways People Can Achieve a Healthy Tan?\nTanning is actually a response that occurs inside of your skin that protects you from further UV damage, so it is not that a tan itself is bad. What is bad, however, is the exposure to UV rays that triggers your skin to tan. If you want to get a tan through natural sun exposure, you do have to be careful. A few things to remember include:\nExfoliate your skin before heading out into the sun so you tan evenly and don\u2019t have to stay in the sun longer to see even effects.\nWear sunscreen to block harmful UV rays. Wearing sunscreen is often thought to prevent tanning, but you are still exposed to the sun, which means you can still get a tan while wearing it.\nDon\u2019t spend too much time in the sun trying to get tan, and pick the right time of day. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when the UV rays are the strongest, so try to tan outside of this window. When you do go into the sun, try spending only 30 minutes to an hour outdoors per day.\nProtect your face and eyes by wearing a hat and sunglasses. Skin cancer is more likely to develop on the face, neck, and ears because this skin is more delicate.\nWhat are Mistakes or Bad Practices People Are Doing to Get an Instant Tan?\nThere are things some people do to get an instant tan that are extremely bad for their skin, and these practices must be avoided. You should never:\nSpend a full day in the sun unprotected in hopes of getting a tan in one day.\nSpend long amounts of time in a tanning bed or go to the tanning bed multiple times a week.\nHead out into the sun without any protection, such as high-SPF sunblock, sunglasses, or a hat.\nDoing these things may help you get a tan faster, but they can also cause a lot of damage to your skin and up your chances of developing some forms of skin cancer.\nA survey conducted by the American Academy of Dermatology showed that 80 percent of 7,100 respondents did have concerns about skin cancer.

We have been beekeepers since 1992, and it\u2019s a funny story of how we became involved with bees. We live on an acre lot in a subdivision. Coming from a farmer family background, of course, it was important to us to have fruit trees and gardens, but there was a problem\u2026No fruits and no vegetables would grow on our property!\nThinking it\u2019s my soil (red clay), I gave the county agricultural department a call to see if they could help me. They told me it\u2019s not the soil. The problem is the lack of wild honeybees. When was the last time you went outside and saw a honeybee? You see every other kind of bee even new bees that haven\u2019t been named yet, some bees that look as if they could carry your dog off, but no honeybees. So I decided to buy a hive and have honeybees in my yard and hoped to have fruits and vegetables. And I did! So did the neighbors!!\nI started to make my own hive boxes and before I knew it I was up to ten hives. My honey was in such demand that I had to keep growing! I now have 5 bee yards there are in Kennesaw, Acworth, Woodstock, Marietta, and Cartersville. We have been active members of the Georgia State Beekeepers Association since 1995 and support UGA\u2019S bee research lab.\nBeekeeping has been a great learning experience for my son who has been involved in it since he was nine years old. He enjoys assisting with seminars and answering questions about bees. Branden has entered several honey judging contests and has won several ribbons. In 1998, Branden won the Junior Beekeeper of the Year Award from the Georgia State Beekeeper\u2019s Association. We would love to see more children learn about the hobby of Beekeeping.",

Credit: IBRAE\nMikhail Flint, head of the Russian Academy of Sciences institute of Oceanology, told the official Tass newswire the Akademik Mstislav Keldish research ship left Arkhangelsk Friday for the waters near the Novaya Zemlya Archipelago, a former Soviet nuclear bomb testing range around which Russia\u2019s nuclear Navy routinely shed its radioactive waste.\nFlint, who is heading the expedition, said the crew would scour inlets along Novaya Zemlya\u2019s craggy coast to measure possible radioactive leakage from what he said were thousand of containers of nuclear waste, as well as entire reactors that were sunk while still loaded with spent nuclear fuel.\n\u201cThere is a huge number of dumping sites in the bays of Novaya Zemlya,\u201d Flint told Tass. \u201cThe sea is a mobile environment, and any leakage could lead to an uncontrollable transfer of radiation.\u201d\nSuch expeditions, Flint said, are undertaken on a yearly basis. As yet, he said, no major leakage has been detected.\nThe expedition will continue for the next month and a half and encompass not only the waters surrounding Novaya Zemlya. The vessel will conducted additional research mapping radioactive hazards in the White Sea, and then progress to the Laptev Sea some 2000 nautical miles to the east.\nBeginning in 1955 and continuing until the early 1990s, the Russian Navy dumped enormous amounts of irradiated debris \u2014 and it one case an entire nuclear submarine \u2014 into the waters of the Arctic. It was not, however, until 2011 that the Russian government admitted this on an international level.\nThat year, Moscow shared with Norwegian nuclear officials the full scope of the problem. The list of sunken objects was far more than had initially been thought, and included 17,000 containers of radioactive waste; 19 ships containing radioactive waste; 14 nuclear reactors, including five that still contain spent nuclear fuel; the K-27 nuclear submarine with its two reactors loaded with nuclear fuel, and 735 other pieces of radioactively contaminated heavy machinery.\nMoscow routinely promises to lift the submarine, but actual plans to do do have yet to materialize.",

        "raw_content": "I know you\u2019re familiar with the Pauline passage that talks about the good we want to do, yet sometimes we don\u2019t do it. That\u2019s the human condition isn\u2019t it? Every twelve-step program is based on it. But when I contemplate it I think that every individual is faced with it. Just ask anyone who has set out to get up in the morning at a certain time, but for whatever reason that didn\u2019t happen.\nMy desire to write my own memoirs is a perfect example as I unpack this thought in relation to my memoirs. I realize I\u2019m not sinning when I don\u2019t write and publish my memoirs, but the disappointment at my \u201cfailure\u201d inflames the depression I fight, and many times I take ten steps backward in my forward journey to heal. I suppose a conservative right-winger could argue that if I\u2019m being called to write this memoir by God, and I don\u2019t then it is a sin. Maybe. I don\u2019t think anything that\u2019s part of the secondary calling is sin if not completed. Turning ones back on God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit is one thing, but I think if one chooses to make a decision like Jonah when he tried to hide from God in the hull of a ship is another. God\u2019s missions and will are not thwarted when we refuse to answer a secondary calling. Discouragement and fear are without a doubt at play, and the timing might be pushed back, but then a thousand years is a day and vice versa in the time continuum of God. We either join Him in what He is doing or we don\u2019t. He\u2019s still going to do it.\nActions have consequences don\u2019t they? Every action has an equal reaction. That\u2019s just the reality of the way life goes. If you smoke you are likely not going to live as long as someone who doesn\u2019t smoke. Same is true for overeating or over doing anything. God made us multidimensional beings who must balance many things to be a whole person. Whenever we over or under indulge in anything our equilibrium is messed up.\nI can think about this memoir too much. I can think about it not enough. Church attendance itself can become a god, but then not going to church will isolate me from the good God is trying to do in my life. That makes me think about the passage that talks about what is loosed on the earth will be loosed in heaven (Matthew 18.18). Not everyone is going to agree with me on church attendance. I think I wrote yesterday that Satan goes to church. Going to church doesn\u2019t make you a fan of Jesus. Dying to myself, producing fruit and believing that God has declared me righteous because of my faith are things that go into being a Christian. I can do all those things without going to church, but my personal conscience does not allow me to try this following Jesus thing in isolation. The church will always be a part of my life here and now.\nI think judgement belongs to God alone, and if God decides to take a coffee break on Judgement Day I\u2019m not going to volunteer to get up on the throne. I will write that my lifestyle and teaching might come across as judgmental, but as a believer in the Bible I see stories of God followers whose lives point others to God in a similar way. I don\u2019t know who said it, but I like the following quote.\nEvangelism is one beggar showing another beggar where to get the bread.\nMy sin, like King David, is always before me. Like David, I am a man after God\u2019s own heart, so I return to Him again and again even in the darkest nights of my soul. Depression is not greater than God\u2019s power, and if God did not remove Paul\u2019s thorn in the flesh then Paul trusted our Father to carry out His purpose. If God doesn\u2019t take my depression away I will do the same.\nThe beautiful music Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith put to, \u201cThy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path,\u201d is beautiful artistic reality that washes over us to convince us the ugliest life can throw at us is no match for the beauty our Savior brings every morning.\nWe don\u2019t have to wait for streets of gold. We can experience it on a dirty, oil filled concrete driveway as we depart for work.\nGrace and peace dear ones, and always remember if God is for us who can be against us?\nPrevious Church Family\nNext The book, Beyond Sad\nThis post has given me a lot of things to reflect on in my prayers. Thank you for sharing this.",

Ales have been around a long time while lagers are relatively new, only a few hundred years old. While these two beer types have similar brewing methods and the same basic ingredients, they utilize different types of yeasts and fermentation styles to make the beer.

        "raw_content": "We have tons of happy customers and then we have a few unhappy ones. Every time someone is not getting the expected results we feel bad and would love to help you succeed in every possible way. While every situation is different there are quite a few common tips that can help you get the best results and I wanted to share them here.\nAdvertising is not a suitable user acquisition strategy for every single app or game out there.\nThe most common source of advertiser unhappiness is campaigns that just can\u2019t achieve positive ROI \u201cby definition\u201d. If you are advertising a paid app or game with no extra sources of income, most likely that it would be very hard for you to profitably acquire users via paid advertising. A free-to-download Windows Phone app/game can acquire users for about $0.5 or more per user (depending on a lot of factors). Industry data says that only 1% to 5% will ever pay for anything in a free game/app. So even if you get downloads at $0.5, convert them at 5% and you can only do it once you are looking at a ~$10 price per buyer. Clearly this doesn\u2019t work for a $0.99 app. Unless, obviously, you believe that your app is so good that one \u201cbought\u201d user will bring 10+ organic users via word-of-mouth.\nNow if your app is a free-to-play game or is monetized with advertising (meaning you monetize every user) or other ways of recurring revenue, it could very well be a different story.\nThis topic, obviously, deserves a separate long-form blog post, but the point is that you should think about the reasons you invest in the campaign. You may want to do a burst campaign to boost your store rankings and disregard the ROI in such case, but if you advertise to acquire users, just make sure that the math works for you.\nWe are all about helping indie developers succeed and we are happy to help you be successful. Even if it means that you don\u2019t spend your money with us.\nTest your ad copy before running a full scale ad campaign\nWe see many developers creating campaigns with just a single ad. While a few of them have tested this ad elsewhere, the vast majority are just willing to place the whole bank on their gut feeling about a single banner ad.\nThe reality is that your gut feeling is more wrong than right. So you should allocate a small portion of your campaign budget to figure out a couple of \u201cwinning\u201d ads. Run a campaign with 5-6 dramatically different ads for a couple of days to figure out a couple that produce the best results before you set out to do your \u201creal\u201d campaign.\nGeneral \u201cwinning\u201d ad copy tips\nWe\u2019ve seen quite a few successful and unsuccessful campaigns and here are a few things that we\u2019ve noticed:\nIt\u2019s not about the beauty\nMost of the times (for an indie developer) the same person who designed your app will design your ad. While you can be sure that they will make an ad that is as beautiful as your app or game is, it doesn\u2019t mean that it will be the most effective.\nA good ad attracts attention. So in a way you can say that the ugliest ad attracts the most attention. Obviously \u201cugly\u201d is not the message you want to send to your potential users, so you have to find a great balance between representing the aesthetics of your game and attracting user\u2019s attention with bold statements and calls to action.\nTry text ads\nInitially we\u2019ve started as a text ads only network and when we introduced support for image ads, graphical banners were few and far between. But right now it\u2019s text ads that are more rare. Additionally, unlike image ads, they are animated. So try including a couple of text ads in your test run.\nAds are not books, they aren\u2019t articles or even tweets. People don\u2019t read sentences in your banners. Try to distill your message into as few words as possible. Shorter ads get more clicks.\nInclude a store logo\nIncluding a Windows Store logo/badge in your banner ad sends a signal to a user that this is an ad for an app. They are more likely to pay attention to app or game ads, than to random stuff they\u2019ve learned to ignore. They will also know what will happen after they click on the ad (they\u2019ll be taken to the store) which gives them more confidence.\nRun a separate campaign for each of your goals\nWhile it\u2019s easier to manage a single campaign targeting all the regions and store categories you care about, it doesn\u2019t give you actionable insights into what is going on and where.\nDefine granular goals and create a separate campaign for each of them.\nFor example, if your goal is to reach English-speaking users, running a single campaign targeting all the English-speaking countries could be fine. But if your goal is to move up the charts in all the English-speaking countries, targeting all of them at once doesn\u2019t give you enough control of what happens in every one of them. So in this case create a separate campaign for each country and adjust them as needed.\nThe rule of thumb here is this: your ads should be as localized (or more localized) as your app is. If you\u2019ve invested time and money into localizing your app, screenshots and store listings it doesn\u2019t make sense for you to undermine these efforts by promoting it with a \u201cgeneric\u201d English ad.\nThis is a list of tips I wanted to share at this point. If you have any other tips we, and the whole community, would appreciate if you could share them in the comments below.\nOne thought on \u201cGetting the Best Results from Your Ad Campaigns\u201d\nTo me the first part of the article was the most interesting. However it\u2019s very thin on actual details. It would be great if you guys could do a deep-dive into how much it costs for a free app to acquire in-app-purchases using advertising and other means.",

        "raw_content": "Record rates of employment and small increases in pay have not halted the increase in the number of those in work living on incomes below what they need, particularly working families with children.\nIn recent years the phrase \u2018hard-working families\u2019 has figured prominently both in defining and defending \u2018difficult\u2019 policy decisions. The programme of welfare reform that began under the Coalition government on 2010-2015 was sold as necessary not only to reduce government spending, but also to restore fairness to a system that was claimed to be privileging the workless above the hard-working. Proposed changes in support for childcare can be seen as aimed at increasing the number of working parents. The introduction of the National Living Wage in April 2016 can also be seen as further evidence of a policy agenda focused on hard-working families.\nAnd yet hard-working families have not escaped government cuts and reductions in support. Recent intended changes to tax credits \u2013 abandoned by George Osborne following pressure from within and outside of his party \u2013 would have resulted in significant losses for many in receipt of in-work tax credit support. Changes to the work allowance under Universal Credit will result in losses for working families receiving support from this April, losses that Iain Duncan Smith suggested could be recouped by people working a few more hours a week.\nBehind the rhetoric and posturing, what has been going on? How have \u2018hard-working\u2019 families fared since 2008/09?\nThe latest in our annual series of reports looking at how many households are living on incomes below what is needed for an adequate standard of living \u2013 according to what the public think \u2013 shows that between 2008/09 and 2013/14, the proportion of people living below this threshold has increased by a third. Within this, families with children have actually seen the greatest increase in the risk of having low income, with over 40 per cent living on incomes below what they need in 2013/14. This means that in 2013/14 there were at least 1.2 million more children living in families with inadequate incomes than there were in 2008; at least 230,000 more were in families with less than half of the money needed for a minimum living standard.\nThis shows that making ends meet on a day-to-day basis has become more difficult for a growing number of families. What the new analysis also reveals is that work \u2013 and there is more of this with record levels of employment \u2013 is not necessarily providing a sure route to an income that could be considered sufficient for a minimum standard of living. For example, couples with children were more likely to work full-time in 2013/14 than in 2008/09, but cuts in in-work support, lower real wages and rising costs means that the risk of (hard) working families having inadequate incomes has increased. Where both are in full-time work, the risk of having insufficient income has more than doubled from 5 to 12 per cent over this period; in couple families where there is only one (hard-working) breadwinner, just over half of households have incomes below what they need in 2013/14. As Dolly so appositely sings \u2018working 9 to 5 \u2026 barely getting by\u2019.\nClearly this poses a challenge to claims that policy changes have been in support of \u2018hard-working\u2019 families; even full-time work is not providing enough income to enable families to reach what the public see as the socially acceptable minimum. Changes that have not been picked up yet in this annual analysis may help to slow the increase in the number of working households with inadequate incomes: the introduction of the National Living Wage for example. However, while efforts to tackle low pay can be welcomed, there remain key questions about the role of in-work support for hard-working families and the balance between employers and state in ensuring that families reach incomes that enable them to have a minimum socially acceptable standard of living. This is particularly important for low income families with children, whose ability to gain from better wages is highly constrained by the way pay rises are being clawed back by reductions in tax credits and Universal Credit.\nThe last verse of Working 9 to 5 neatly encapsulates the circumstances of many working families:\n\u201cIn the same boat with a lot of your friends, waitin\u2019 for the day your ship\u2019ll come in, And the tide\u2019s gonna turn and it\u2019s all gonna roll you away\u201d\nUnfortunately, at least in the short term, it does not look like the tide is about to turn.",

        "title": "Lynn Johnson is Empowering Girls Through Go Girl! Theater Camps - UrbanSitter",
        "raw_content": "This summer across the Bay Area, Lynn Johnson will be spreading a compassion revolution. You won\u2019t find her holding up protest signs or rallying for her cause. Instead, you\u2019ll see her on- and backstage with the more than 600 young girls aged 6 to 14 who are enrolled in her two-week Go Girl! theater camps, held everywhere from Palo Alto and Sonoma to the East Bay.\nAs co-founder and CEO of Glitter & Razz Productions, the company behind Go Girl! Camps, Johnson, along with her life and business partner, Allison Kenny, strives to bolster these girls\u2019 social and emotional skills and embrace their \u201cgirl power\u201d through the creation of their own plays\u2014writing them, creating sets and costumes, and ultimately performing them before an audience. Many of these girls have never before set foot on a stage.\n\u201cWe help girls develop skills they need to love and respect themselves, to keep themselves safe, to be more empathetic of others, and to make bold and brave choices in their lives,\u201d says Johnson. To do this, she aims to help them to understand and embrace their often confusing, sometimes negative feelings; and appreciate their differences\u2014all qualities and skills Johnson believes will address the compassion deficit she sees in the world. By extension, she hopes to help girls avoid disruptive behaviors, like bullying; and ward off anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders that are often the effects of low esteem.\nLynn Johnson, co-founder of Go Girls! Camps\nThe power of theater to do this may seem anathema to some but it\u2019s always been apparent to Johnson, a self-described drama geek since age 5. She moved around the Northeast with her parents before settling outside of Boston when she was in the eighth grade. One of only a few African-American students in her new town, she quickly learned what it meant to be different. But she was always at home on the stage, having acted in her first play, called \u201cThe Dollmaker\u2019s Shop,\u201d when she was in the first grade; and she found that theater was a way to celebrate differences and to build a better sense of belonging. \u201cTheater gave me a way to fit in and be part of a peaceful community when I felt like an outsider in every other aspect of my life,\u201d she says. Throughout her school years, she continued to embrace the power of theater \u201cto transform lives,\u201d and has been committed to it ever since.\nAfter studying theater and women\u2019s studies at Northwestern University, Johnson founded a multicultural teen ensemble in Chicago\u2014 TurnStyle Teen Theatre\u2014and also performed stories and poems written by children as part of a national tour company called StreetSigns. When the director moved the company to North Carolina, Johnson moved, too. For three years she directed community-based educational programs in Chapel Hill while continuing to perform, until she developed an itch to live in a more urban environment; and she headed west in 2002. \u201cA lot of my friends were moving to Los Angeles, and I thought I\u2019d go, too,\u201d she says. But her plan was derailed when, instead, she took a job teaching summer theater camp in Northern California to be near her brother and sister-in-law, who had just become first-time parents\u2014and met Kenny, a fellow teacher and actor. \u201cShe and I fell in love, practically at first sight, and I moved to San Francisco to be with her,\u201d says Johnson.\nEager to continue her work with kids, Johnson worked as a trainer for the Bay Area non-profit, Community Network for Youth Development (CNYD), advising on youth programs in San Francisco while continuing to teach theater with Kenny. With little more than shared experience and a passion for improving young lives, the couple decided to venture out on their own and in 2003 created Glitter & Razz Productions LLC, a theater production company aimed at social change. \u201cWe wanted to focus on the impact theater can have on kids, to see what would happen if we helped kids create plays and put themselves in them,\u201d Johnson says. They didn\u2019t need much money to get the company started\u2014they ran it out of their home. Johnson relied on non-profit consulting work and organizational coaching workshops to keep the business afloat, while she taught herself how to run and grow a business. In 2007, the couple moved the company to Berkeley, then again to Oakland\u2019s Rockridge neighborhood, where they settled in and became a community center of sorts. They offered summer camps and programming after-school and during school breaks; and they also hosted birthday parties. \u201cWe were women artists who wanted to give kids a connection to each other,\u201d says Johnson.\n\u201cWe help girls develop skills they need to love and respect themselves, to keep themselves safe, to be more empathetic of others, and to make bold and brave choices in their lives.\u201d\n\u2014 Lynn Johnson\nThey also wanted to create something that would bring financial security. Glitter and Razz was popular, but not lucrative. To stay afloat, they shifted their focus to the most successful, most passion-centric part of their business: their two-week summer camp for girls. \u201cWe needed to prune the roses,\u201d says Johnson. \u201cWe had a social mission and when we focused on the part we were most passionate about, our business grew.\u201d\nIt was clearly the right move. Johnson and Kenny have steadily added locations for Go Girl! Camps, which now totals seven; and they saw their enrollment double in the last year alone. \u201dThere\u2019s a real need for social change,\u201d says Johnson. \u201cWe care so much and we see our camps truly changing girls, changing their lives.\u201d This year, they\u2019re partnering with Camp Reel Stories, a popular media camp for teens, to offer a more advanced, behind-the-scenes program aimed at tween and teen girls. This program gives rising fifth and sixth grade girls a chance to produce, direct, edit, and star in their own short films. They also offer a Go Girl! Leadership Team, giving rising seventh, eight and ninth graders an opportunity to mentor younger camp participants, fostering their leadership skills and becoming effective role models for younger girls.\nGo Girl! Campers take the stage in camps across the Bay Area. Photo by glitter & razz Productions, llc.\nLast fall, in the midst of planning for their biggest camp season ever, Johnson and Kenny became parents to a 6-year-old girl they are in the process of adopting. Johnson admits that the uncertainty of business ownership can be especially stressful for a parent, but says that parenting has made her a bolder businesswoman and conversely, entrepreneurship has made her a better parent. \u201cThe skills and the confidence you develop when you build something help you in all of life, including parenting,\u201d she says. \u201cThey give you a sense of worth that is so empowering. \u201c Turns out, Go Girls! Camp, isn\u2019t just about boosting confidence in young girls, but in its founder, too. \u201cI wish every woman could start a business, build something that belongs to them,\u201d says Johnson. \u201cIt\u2019s amazing and truly empowering to do what you believe in.\u201d\nLynn Johnson takes a break in San Francisco\u2019s Yerba Buena Park. This summer she\u2019ll welcome more than 600 girls to her Go Girls! Theater Camps.\nFor more information on Go Girl!

        "raw_content": "One professional blog I find to be a great resource is reverseshot.org, which is a publication of the Museum of the Moving Image. The museum itself is located in Queens, and is devoted to film, television and digital media. With its many reviews, symposiums and interviews, Reverse Shot is a necessary resource for any aspiring filmmaker. The website is sleek and easy to navigate, and has a very professional feel. It has a number of contributors, all of whom seem quite knowledgable in the realm of film history.\nThe reviews are very in-depth, and rarely of blockbusters. In a review of Bridge of Spies, the latest Spielberg film, contributor Jeff Reichert had this to say; \u201cWe\u2019re near-always safe with Spielberg; his films are built around an unparalleled clarity of space, and when their imagery functions to disorient our perspective it\u2019s only in order to make the reorientation even more effectively stabilizing. He aims to please.\u201d\nThe Symposiums are also very informative, and usually focus on a theme or director. In Ring Cycle, an analysis of Martin Scorsese\u2019s Raging Bull, contributor Michael Koresky praises the film\u2019s emotional brutality and iconic boxing scenes. He also goes on to say that the film\u2019s depiction of non-fictional boxer Jake LaMotta elevated the emotional response of the audience;\n\u201cJake LaMotta is no made-up character\u2014in fictionalizing a real man, Scorsese at once elevates him and brings him down to earth. You could use the term larger than life, but life seems to swallow him up. As expressed in the film\u2019s justly famous credit sequence\u2014in which a distant LaMotta bounces and shadowboxes in elegant slow motion on the left side of the 1.85:1 frame, accompanied by the effusive flourish of Pietro Mascagni\u2019s \u201cCavalleria rusticana\u201d\u2014he is eternally, like all of us, a small man in the corner.\u201d\nRing Cycle is just one post in a series called \u201cMartin Scorsese: He is Cinema,\u201d which analyzes every Scorsese film.

        "raw_content": "From Risky to Responsible Business\nSubmitted by Jean-Michel Happi\tOn Tue, 04/15/2014\nIf I had to pick one critical source of exports and a key driver of economic growth for Armenia, I would pick mining.\nBut mining is a risky business and is fraught with hurdles. Exploration often comes up empty. Investments are very large, in excess of hundreds of millions dollars. Commodity prices can change dramatically and governments can change policies and taxes. Moreover, there can be large environmental and social risks associated with things like tailings, dams, and resettlement policies.\nA risky business does not, however, mean that mining is or should be an irresponsible business. Many of these risks can be mitigated or eliminated. This requires proper policies, laws, regulations, careful implementation, and planning for life when the mine closes \u2013 all of this even before the mine opens. Supporting policies, such as easy access to updated geological information and predictability in transferring licenses, reduce the risk in exploration.\nPutting Nature at the Heart of Economic Decisions\nTo put nature at the heart of economic decisions, government, the private sector & the conservation community must reach across the aisle.\nLook around the world, and you\u2019ll see abundant reasons to worry about nature and its capacity to sustain us. Over 60 percent of ecosystems are in worse shape now than 50 years ago; 85 percent of ocean fisheries are fully exploited, over-exploited or depleted; half of all wetlands have been destroyed since 1900; and climate change is changing everything.\nBut at the same time, if you look carefully, there are reasons for cautious optimism.",

        "raw_content": "Bill is a dedicated young lawyer working at his familys prestigious New York firm, who leaves everything he trained for to follow his dream and become a minister in rural Wyoming. Jenny, his wife, is a stylist whose heart and soul are invested in fashion. She leaves the milieu and life she loves to join him. The certainty they share is that their destinies are linked forever. Fast forward thirty-eight years. Robert is a hardworking independent book publisher in Manhattan, who has given up all personal life to build his struggling business. He is looking for one big hit novel to publish. Lillibet is a young Amish woman, living as though in the seventeenth century, caring for her widowed father and three young brothers on their family farm. In secret at night, by candlelight, she has written the novel that burns within her, and gets it into Roberts hands, wrapped in her hand-stitched apron. He falls in love first with the book, and then with the woman he has never met, living in the sequestered world of the Amisha world without telephones, computers, electricity, modern conveniences, or cars. Although Lillibet faces banishment from her family and community, she embraces the opportunity to publish her novel, and is irresistibly drawn to the man who has heard her voice. Destiny is at work here. Fate draws her from her horse-and-buggy life toward his, and the publication of her novel. In the hands of master storyteller Danielle Steel, these two remarkable relationships come together in unexpected and surprising ways, as lovers are lost, and find each other again. If it is true that real love lasts forever and lovers cannot lose each other, then Until the End of Time will not only comfort and fascinate us, as destiny does her dance, but it will give us hope as well. Love and fate are powerful, irresistible forces, as Steel proves to us here, in a book about courage, change, risk, and hope . . . and love that never dies.",

        "raw_content": "Did you know that there are about six million car accidents in the United States alone every single year? That's 500,000 accidents each month, nearly 125,000 every week, and over 17,000 every single day. With that being said, it is nothing short of a miracle to not be involved in a car wreck when you are on the road. While no one is pardoned from the possibility of being in an accident, those who are still deserve every penny of compensation possible when it happens to them regardless of if the odds were in their favor or not.\nData shows that 94% of all car accidents are caused by human error. This can be due to fatigue, distractions like texting, driving under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medications, and other influences. Someone else's negligence can have a huge impact on the injured, for sure, but also on the injured person's well-being and the well-being of his or her family. Serious car accidents can cause injuries in which the person can't work, which puts his or her livelihood in jeopardy. Not to mention, there are medical bills to be paid and who know how cooperative insurance companies will be. All of this added stress because of someone's lack of ability to drive responsibly? Compensation must be paid.\nOne can only imagine what all runs through someone's mind after being involved in a car accident, then realizing that injuries were sustained. How bad is this? Will my life ever be the same? Did I do anything wrong to make this happen? Are there any witnesses? These kinds of questions among others are normal and common and should all be taken into consideration. When someone else's negligence behind the wheel results in you being injured, there are critical steps to take to help ensure you get the most compensation possible. Here, we'll address a question that will undoubtedly come up: what do I do next?\n1. Put safety first. If possible, turn on your emergency flashers and drive your vehicle to the shoulder of the road. Pay attention to if you smell anything like smoke or gas. If so, try to get out and away from the car. If your car can't be moved and there's no sign of fire or leaking gas, stay put and call 911.\n2. Check for injuries. The next thing you'll want to do is see if you or anyone else in your car has any injuries. Try your best to remain calm and make note of even the smallest of abrasions. Injuries can also be internal, so pay attention to if your breathing has changed or if you have pain anywhere that doesn't show physical sign of injury.\n3. Get the other driver's information. Make note of the make and model of the other driver's vehicle, the color of the vehicle, VIN number, and license plate number. If you're both able to move and communicate, get a picture of his or her driver's license and insurance information.\n4. Talk to witnesses. If anyone is standing around and willing to talk, take their statements. If you can record it via an app on your cell phone along with their name, phone number, and email address (if they have one), that would be excellent for your case.\n5. Take note of your surroundings. Write down things like what time it is, your exact location, and what you remember happening.\n6. Gather visual evidence. Take pictures of the scene, including damages, injuries, and the other person's vehicle.\n7. File a claim. Get your accident on record right away. Be very careful about signing any documents. Pay attention to your gut instinct. If anything feels off or if you feel like you're being pressured by the insurance company to make certain moves, don't hesitate to give my office a call.\n8. Go see your doctor. Even if you think you're absolutely fine, it is always a good idea to go see your doctor just to be safe. The sooner the better.",

        "raw_content": "Perceptions of Time.\nJune 23, 2017 by Christine\tin Writing and tagged Editing, summer\nHasn\u2019t it been hot this week? Far too hot to do anything. Since my brain shuts down when the temperature hits 25\u00b0C and dissolves and dribbles out my ears at 30\u00b0C, I have been doing very little this week. The only thing to do is find somewhere shady and read. As if I needed the excuse!\nSo it was lucky that I had decided it was time to read through the first draft of Book Two. I have just finished it and put it down with a contented sigh. At least the ending is good \u2013 not sure about the rest! Actually, it\u2019s not that bad. Obviously there\u2019s a lot of editing to do and I now know what needs tightening up, what needs more (or less) description, characters deleting or bringing to the fore.\nThere is one interesting thing that I have discovered and that is how the perception of time changes. Everyone knows that how you remember the past depends on how you experience it. When I was young, summers were always warm and sunny, September, and school, arrived far too quickly and Christmas took forever to arrive. I hadn\u2019t realised it happens when you are writing.\nI \u201cknew\u201d that when I reached the middle of the book, I didn\u2019t have much of the plot left. I know, I said, someone is going on a journey. I\u2019ll pad that out with plenty of events along the way, delays because of weather, perhaps a fight, vivid descriptions of the scenery. That journey was going to take weeks, if not months. If I found plenty of plot at the end of the journey, I could just cut it out.\nI ended up with 104,381 words (target 90k) so it appears there was more plot than I expected. No worries, I would cut the journey \u2013 except I couldn\u2019t. It didn\u2019t last nearly as long as I had thought, and every event was now vital to the plot. It seems that, because I had imagined every step of the journey, tramping through wind and rain beside my character, it had just seemed to have taken a long time. The reader was dependant just on what I had written, which was not a lot. Was it bad writing? Would the reader have become as bored as I had been and stopped reading?\nI shall just have to lose words through good old editing. I know I am too wordy. There is a lot to get rid of. All those \u201cHe started to walk\u201ds to cut to \u201cHe walked\u201d. I spotted plenty as I read.\nPerhaps one of those journey scenes; the bit where\u2026 but then that later scene doesn\u2019t work. Too much of that and I\u2019ll have too few words.\nThere\u2019s a lot of work ahead, so I\u2019d better get on with it. I just hope the heat doesn\u2019t return and I\u2019m forced into the garden again.\nJust lie back and relax.\n\u2190 Back to work \u2013 turning a corner.\nEditing, interrupted \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Intro to Minnesota hotels and accommodations\nMinnesota is a state famed for the number of its lakes, the cold temperatures of its winters, and the warmth of its people, the Minnesotans. In the \"Land of 10,000 Lakes,\" the summer-time pleasures of fun on the water are only matched by the challenges of skating and fishing during the winter months. Home to the most northerly place in the Lower 48, this state\u2019s cities captivate visitors thanks to their wonderful shopping opportunities and varied culture, while the Minnesotans themselves captivate with their cheery Scandinavian charm.\nFor many visitors, it\u2019s the simple lakeside lodges and cabins\u2014with their opportunities for fishing, boating, and hiking\u2014that appeal the most. But hotels in Minnesota can be luxurious too. Stay in one of the many luxury Minnesota hotels found in its thriving cities and you\u2019ll be able to unwind in steamy saunas, or dine on classic Scandinavian cuisine. Travelers who prefer a bit more adventure will enjoy a stay at one of Minnesota\u2019s winter resorts, with skiing and snowmobiling on offer. And in a land of wide open skies and endless plains, the appeal of a road trip\u2014checking into one of the many motels in Minnesota along the way\u2014is also hard to resist.\nThings to see in Minnesota\nThe Twin Cities hold many of the state\u2019s most popular attractions. They range from the highbrow culture of the Minneapolis Institute of Art to the shopping extravaganza of the Mall of America, famed for its amusement park, aquarium, and 530 stores. Minneapolis is where you\u2019ll find one of the nation\u2019s most eulogized waterfalls, the Minnehaha Falls. Made famous by the poem The Song of Hiawatha, the surrounding park is also home to a 19th-century train station. The port city of Duluth has its own river-based spectacle, the 100-year-old Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge. This curving latticework of steel raises itself some 180 feet into the air to let ships pass beneath. The state naturally has many fantastic outdoor parks, the most unspoiled being the Voyageurs National Park. Only accessible by boat or plane, here you may be lucky enough to see moose, loons, or even bears.\nWhere to stay in Minnesota\nMinneapolis is the place to head to if you\u2019re looking for business accommodation in Minnesota\u2014it\u2019s the most important commercial center to be found between Seattle and Chicago. It also makes a great base for discovering the wider Twin Cities area. The other half of the Twins, St. Paul, is quieter, known for its charming Victorian neighborhoods and theaters. Many couples come here for a romantic vacation. Bloomington, as the home of the largest mall in the U.S., is the perfect stayover for fans of retail therapy. The pretty wooded lakeside town of Duluth attracts visitors wanting to soak up its easy-going atmosphere, or to explore the wildernesses and open plains further north.\nHow to get to Minnesota\nTo travel to Minnesota, there are 3 interstates cutting through the state. Both Interstate 90 and Interstate 94 run east to west, linking up with Wisconsin and the Dakotas. Interstate 35 is the route to take from Des Moines to the South. If you\u2019re flying in, Minneapolis-Saint Paul Airport is the main entry point. There are smaller airports in Duluth and Rochester. By rail, the Amtrak Empire Builder service runs to Minnesota from Chicago to Seattle, calling at stations in Winona, Saint Paul, Detroit Lakes, and Fargo in North Dakota.",

        "raw_content": "Map that named America is a puzzle for researchers\nWASHINGTON (Reuters) - The only surviving copy of the 500-year-old map that first used the name America goes on permanent display this month at the Library of Congress, but even as it prepares for its debut, the 1507 Waldseemuller map remains a puzzle for researchers.\nThe 1507 Waldseemuller map in an image courtesy of the Library of Congress. The only surviving copy of the 500-year-old map that first used the name America goes on permanent display this month at the Library of Congress, but even as it prepares for its debut, the map remains a puzzle for researchers. REUTERS/Handout\nWhy did the mapmaker name the territory America and then change his mind later? How was he able to draw South America so accurately? Why did he put a huge ocean west of America years before European explorers discovered the Pacific?\n\u201cThat\u2019s the kind of conundrum, the question, that is still out there,\u201d said John Hebert, chief of the geography and map division of the Library of Congress.\nThe 12 sheets that make up the map, purchased from German Prince Johannes Waldburg-Wolfegg for $10 million in 2003, were mounted on Monday in a huge 6-foot by 9.5-foot (1.85 meter by 2.95 meter) display case machined from a single block of aluminum.\nThe case will be flooded with inert argon gas to prevent deterioration when it goes on public display December 13.\nResearchers are hopeful that putting the rarely shown map on permanent display for the first time since it was discovered in the Waldburg-Wolfegg castle archives in 1901 may stimulate interest in finding out more about the documents used to produce it.\nThe map was created by the German monk Martin Waldseemuller. Thirteen years after Christopher Columbus first landed in the Western Hemisphere, the Duke of Lorraine brought Waldseemuller and a group of scholars together at a monastery in Saint-Die in France to create a new map of the world.\nThe result, published two years later, is stunningly accurate and surprisingly modern.\n\u201cThe actual shape of South America is correct,\u201d said Hebert. \u201cThe width of South America at certain key points is correct within 70 miles of accuracy.\u201d\nGiven what Europeans are believed to have known about the world at the time, it should not have been possible for the mapmakers to produce it, he said.\nThe map gives a reasonably correct depiction of the west coast of South America. But according to history, Vasco Nunez de Balboa did not reach the Pacific by land until 1513, and Ferdinand Magellan did not round the southern tip of the continent until 1520.\n\u201cSo this is a rather compelling map to say, \u2018How did they come to that conclusion,\u201d\u2018 Hebert said.\nThe mapmakers say they based it on the 1,300-year-old works of the Egyptian geographer Ptolemy as well as letters Florentine navigator Amerigo Vespucci wrote describing his voyages to the new world. But Hebert said there must have been something more.\n\u201cFrom the writings of Vespucci you couldn\u2019t have prepared the map,\u201d Hebert said. \u201cThere had to be something cartographic with it.\u201d\nMISGIVINGS ABOUT AMERICA\nWaldseemuller made it clear he was naming the new land after Vespucci, describing how he came up with the name America based on the navigator\u2019s first name.\nBut he soon had misgivings about what he had done. An atlas Waldseemuller produced six years later shows only part of the east coast of the Americas, and refers to it as Terra Incognita \u2014 unknown land.\n\u201cAmerica has gone out of his lexicon,\u201d Hebert said. \u201c(No) place in the atlas \u2014 in the text or in the maps \u2014 does the name America appear.\u201d\nHis 1516 mariner\u2019s map, on the same scale as the 1507 map, steps back even further, showing only parts of the new continents and reconnecting the north to Asia. South America is labeled Terra Nova \u2014 New World \u2014 and North America is labeled Terra de Cuba \u2014 Land of Cuba.\n\u201cEssentially he\u2019s reconnecting North America to the Asian mainland, suggesting a continual world of land mass rather than separated by those bodies of water that separate us from Europe and Asia,\u201d Hebert said.\nWhy the rollback? No one knows.\nIn writings accompanying the 1516 map, Waldseemuller comes across as if he \u201chas seen the better of his error and is now correcting it,\u201d Hebert said.\nHe speculated that power politics played a role. Spain and Portugal divided the globe between them in 1494, two years after Columbus, with territory to the east going to Portugal and land to the west to Spain.\nThat demarcation line is oddly absent from the 1507 Waldseemuller map, and flags marking territorial claims in South America suggest Portugal controls the region\u2019s southernmost land, even though it is in Spain\u2019s area of influence. On the later map, the southernmost flag is Spanish, Hebert said.\n\u201cIt is possible one could say the 1507 map is influenced strongly by Portuguese sources and conceivably the 1516 map may be influenced more by Spanish sources,\u201d he said.\nAlthough the map conceals many mysteries, one thing is clear: it represents a revolutionary shift in the way Europe viewed the world.\n\u201cThis is ... essentially the beginning or first map of the modern age, and it\u2019s one that everything builds on from that point forward,\u201d Hebert said. \u201cIt becomes a keystone map.\u201d\nEditing by Eddie Evans",

        "raw_content": "Today\u2019s America is but a caricature of the real America. And I really, really, miss America!\nBy J.D. Longstreet \u2014\u2014 Bio and Archives--May 19, 2013\nWith Memorial Day and the 4th of July (celebrated as Independence Day in the United States) fast approaching, scribes all over the nation are dutifully dipping their quills into their inkwells to scribble the obligatory few lines on the topic: \u201cWhat America Means to me\u201d, again this year, as in every year since, well, since 1776, I suppose.\nBut, I must confess, I am having difficulty this year. Each time I pull up to the keyboard, and type those few words, I have to confess, my eyes want to tear up and I get that lump in the throat that I used to associate with singing the national anthem and watching the flag march by, proudly held aloft by a veteran of the US Armed Forces. All of you Vets know exactly what I mean. It is a common trait among those of us who have worn our nation\u2019s uniform.\nAh, but this year, this year, the would-be tears are not only for those who have paid the price of our freedom with their body and blood - and sometimes even their sanity, it is for what we, as Americans, as a nation, have lost in recent years.\nNear the top of my list of things we Americans have lost is PRIDE. Pride at being an American. Pride that was earned - that was paid for by the men and women who went before me into the jaws of hell and back to free a people in a country the name of which we often could not even pronounce. It was pride earned because Americans were a people who would lend a hand to their fellow man, far away, who yearned to be free from a brutal dictator.\nAmerica used to be thought of as a \u201ccan-do\u201d nation. It didn\u2019t make a lot of difference what needed doing, America could, and would, do it. It never occurred to us we could fail. I mean, after all, we were AMERICANS! We DON\u2019T FAIL!\nIt was confidence. Self-confidence, if you will. We were a nation of rugged individualists who did not rely on government for a damned thing. As a matter of fact, the less government we had - the better. The nation, itself, was founded largely by the outcasts of other nations. Occasionally, other nations would send their criminals here as punishment. I know that is difficult to believe but it happened! They were people who had nothing to lose, with their backs against the wall they had one way to go and that was straight ahead - and the devil take the hind most! Those were the people who formed the bedrock foundation of the people the world would come to know simply as \u201cAMERICANS.\u201d Unique in the history of the planet - there had never been a nation made of people like those Americans. They were different. They knew it and they loved it.\nThey were a people who wanted their freedom - and so they took it \u2013 and they took it from a world superpower, no less. They created an experimental system of government called a constitutional representative republic and made it work! Some 80 years later they fell out, over state\u2019s rights, and split into two separate countries and went to war against each other.\nThe War for Southern Independence was unlike anything the world had seen before and since. They went at killing each other with workman-like precision. On more than one occasion soldiers would cheer and applaud the other side\u2019s bravery in the midst of the battle! More Americans died in that war than in all the wars America has been involved in added together. Some say the way that war ended has much to do with where America finds herself today. I cannot disagree with that. As a result of that war\u2019s ending we stand today as one nation containing two countries made up of 50 separate and sovereign states. At some point it is bound to unravel.\nAmerica\u2019s downfall came quickly once it began in the early 1990s.\nI have concluded ignorance is the cause of America\u2019s downfall. We Americans are, as a whole, stupid. We are the least educated, dumbest, society on earth. How else can you account for the people we elected to lead the nation? I mean\u2026 just LOOK at that bunch! Now\u2026 look at what they have done to the country in just the last few months! There is no easy way to say this \u2013 the election of Obama was a huge triumph for ignorance in America. If you STILL do not believe me, stick around for oh, a year, maybe eighteen months, or so, and watch what is going to happen and THEN tell me I am wrong.\nCome on folks! Look at the fare on your TV. Most of it is insulting to anyone with a slightly above average IQ. You must understand the comprehension level of the average adult American today is around that of a third grader, or below. The people who produce the garbage on TV have to dumb it down so the average American can understand it! How else are they going to be able to sell it to the networks as vehicles for their commercials?\nOur public school system (the government schools, as many now refer to them) is absolutely pathetic. It is a colossal failure. The curriculum has been dumbed down so that we are graduating kids who can barely function in a world that will surely pass them by. We know what is wrong with our schools and we know how to fix them - but we won\u2019t. You must understand that for the government (we now have in America) to continue to control the reins of power they need MORE dumb Americans - not less. Our cookie-cutter schools are turning them out by the millions every year.\nSo, if you say America has passed her zenith, I certainly would not argue with you. Today\u2019s America is but a caricature of the real America. And I really, really, miss America!\nJ.D. Longstreet -- Bio and Archives | Comments\n(Editor\u2019s note: J.D.

        "raw_content": "The child\u2019s journey through grief depends on you being honest and open about the death he has experienced. You may feel that if you are quiet and don\u2019t talk about it, you are helping him forget about the death and not be reminded of the pain it brings. Yet this kind of protection doesn\u2019t help for too long. Of course you mean well, but by not talking about the death, which is foremost on everyone\u2019s minds, you only cause him to feel confused and alone in his grief. It might even make him feel more afraid. When talking with children, use simple, concrete language. Until they become teenagers, children are quite literal. Try not to use abstract or complex descriptions for death. It\u2019s OK to use the \u201cd\u201d word (death or dying). Explain death in a straightforward manner, without the use of metaphors or analogies such as \u201cpassed away,\u201d \u201ctaking a long sleep,\u201d \u201cleft us,\u201d or \u201cin a better place\u201d. Be open to discussing the death and his thoughts and feelings about it again and again. That\u2019s because healing is a process, not an event.\nFor children, the language of comfort is often physical\u2014through holding, hugging, snuggling, and affection. Spend time simply sitting next to or holding the child. Your close physical presence is a conversation in itself. When talking about the death or the child\u2019s grief, stay aware of your tone and make eye contact. With warmth, sincerity, and a relaxed open face, send the message that whatever she says is OK, allowing her to express her fears and wishes freely. Allow long pauses after questions or gaps in talking for her to fill or not.\nAttend to your own grief\nIf you are a parent or family member, most likely you are also grieving the death of the person who died. When you are overwhelmed by death, it\u2019s hard to think of anything else, including the needs of those around you. It\u2019s important for you to carve out time and honor your own grief. If you are responsible for the fulltime care of a child, you will have to do the same for her\u2014creating time for her to grieve with you and separately. Giving attention to another\u2019s grief can be challenging when grief has shaken you deeply, but try your best to be available to your child, who feels shocked and confused by the death of a family member or a loved one. If, understandably, you just can\u2019t do it right now, find another loving adult who can.",

        "raw_content": "Chickasaw Vietnam War veterans Gene Jefferson, Ada, Oklahoma, and Donald Yegge, Loyalton, California, follow the lead of an active military honor guardsman at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery.\nFour Chickasaw Vietnam War veterans lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery Nov. 12. The veterans are, back, left to right, Knute Landreth Jr., and Bruce Squires. Front, left to right, are Gene Jefferson and Donald Yegge.\nWASHINGTON, D.C. \u2013 Chickasaw Nation warriors laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery Monday, Nov. 12, to honor veterans who made the ultimate sacrifice defending freedom.\nFour Chickasaw Vietnam War veterans represented their tribe at the national shrine. They included Ada, Oklahoma, resident Gene Jefferson, a Marine sergeant who served as a helicopter machine gun operator; Donald Yegge, a Loyalton, California, resident who served as a gunner\u2019s mate in the Navy; Knute Landreth Jr., a Roswell, New Mexico, resident and former Army sergeant who served as a stealth \u201csearch and destroy\u201d warrior and Bruce Squires, a Fargo, North Dakota, resident, and first lieutenant in the Army. All were involved in combat.\n\u201cOh, wow, it was very emotional,\u201d Yegge said in describing the honor of laying a wreath while representing the Chickasaw Nation. \u201cThe sergeant said \u2018where are you from?\u2019 We said Oklahoma, California, New Mexico and North Dakota \u2026 from the Chickasaw Nation.\u201d\n\u201cI got to a place very few people in the United States will ever get to be thanks to the Chickasaw Nation,\u201d Landreth said of being merely steps away from of the Tomb of the Unknowns. \u201cIt was just unbelievable. I don\u2019t know how I was selected. It meant a lot to me. It was a great honor.\u201d\nThe servicemen were part of a dozen Chickasaw veterans and citizens who attended a five-day trip to America\u2019s Capitol by the Chickasaw Nation. Each year, the tribe sends its warriors here to enjoy the sights, take part in Veterans Day memorial ceremonies and allow them an opportunity to meet other Chickasaws who served. The 2018 warriors served America in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and National Guard.\nChickasaw Nation Governor Bill Anoatubby said the trip is an expression of appreciation to Chickasaws who have served our country.\n\"There is something truly special about those men and women who serve in the armed forces to defend our freedoms and way of life,\" said Governor Anoatubby. \"While it is important to make a special effort to honor their service on Veterans Day, it is always appropriate to express our appreciation for their sacrifice and dedication.\"\nThis year\u2019s excursion has taken the warriors to monuments honoring the nation\u2019s greatest leaders and sites commemorating wars where Americans have fought with valor and dignity in the name of freedom.\nTwo other Chickasaw veterans who represented the Chickasaw Nation at the tomb \u2013 protected by active military honor guard soldiers 365 days a year \u2013 also expressed how much it meant to them to be given the privilege of laying the wreath.\n\u201cIt was very special,\u201d said Jefferson. Squires said the respect shown to the veterans \u201cwas humbling.\u201d\nSeveral Chickasaw veterans were thanked for their service by a man who came to America from Belize and works as a volunteer at Arlington Nation Cemetery.\n\u201cIt was an amazing moment and meant so much,\u201d said Phillip Billy, a veteran and director of veteran services at the Chickasaw Nation. \u201cIt came from his heart.\u201d\nYegge said the encounter put a lump in his throat. \u201cHe just seemed to appear out of nowhere to shake our hands and thank us for our service.\u201d\nThe Chickasaw Nation provides veterans with increased benefits and services, including the Chickasaw Warrior Society. The warrior society was formed by Governor Anoatubby in 2015, as an organization to encourage community, establish and support camaraderie and personifies the Chickasaw warrior spirit. The Nation also opened The Chickasaw Nation Veterans Lodge on the Ada South Campus near the Chickasaw Nation Medical Center in Ada.\nThe site was selected to assist veterans in a centralized location. It serves by assisting them in accessing all resources available through the Chickasaw Nation and other sources. It also serves as a place for members of the Chickasaw Warrior Society, other veterans and those in active service to come together for fellowship and build relationships.",

        "raw_content": "Find Affordable Burial Insurance With Parkinson\u2019s Disease Today\nTo see instant rates, fill out the quote form on this page. If you have Parkinson\u2019s Disease, please call us for accurate rates. There are some companies that will work with you, but some will not. Our toll free number is 1-800-644-2926.\nYou might think buying burial insurance with Parkinson\u2019s is going to be really hard and expensive. Well, you would be wrong.\nParkinson\u2019s disease is not going to mean really high prices or declines.\nIn fact, there are final expense companies out there that willing accept this condition, and many others!. For many years now, we have successfully helped many Parkinson\u2019s patients secure low cost burial insurance that has no waiting period. We will show you how to do the same.\nIn this article, we will outline how insurance carriers react to Parkinson\u2019s, what kind of options you are looking at, and how you can find the best plan at the best price.\nThe Truth About Burial Insurance With Parkinson\u2019s Disease\nDepending on who you speak with, you could get some mixed responses about this issue. We believe in being direct, so we will just give it to you straight.\nWe are happy to report that there are some final expense companies that simply do not care about Parkinson\u2019s disease. To them, having it is the same as not having it. You can qualify for a level death benefit. That means you pay the least amount possible and your coverage has no waiting period of any kind. On the other hand, most burial insurance companies will impose some sort of penalty to Parkinson\u2019s patients. At minimum there will be a higher premium, but there may be a waiting period as well (depends on the company). Hopefully, you don\u2019t have any other health issues that would prevent you from qualifying with one of the carriers that accepts Parkinson\u2019s all day long.\nReady for some more great news?\nSince burial insurance plans are issued on a simplified basis, they never require any sort of medical exam. At no point will a stranger have to enter your home to complete the application.\nParkinson\u2019s disease is an incurable condition that can have a drastic effect on your life. Thankfully, modern treatment has enabled many people to live long healthy lives with a high quality of life. Regardless of your situation, we are ultra confident that we can find you a very affordable funeral insurance policy even with this condition.\nFuneral Insurance Underwriting For Parkinson\u2019s\nAs you may or may not know, the only element of underwriting that involves you is the health questionnaire. Behind the scenes, the insurance companies will run prescription history checks as a way to validate your health status.\nOf course, applying for a burial insurance plan that has underwriting is only way to get instant protection and the lowest rates. You could apply for guarantee issue life insurance which has no health questions or medical checks. However, you should never do that unless all underwritten options were exhausted.\nParkinson\u2019s In The Health Questions\nIf a final expense application, with any company, asks about Parkinson\u2019s, it will more than likely have no time frame attached to it. This happens because it\u2019s a condition that cannot be cured. Once you have it, it\u2019s with you for life.\nMost final expense companies will break up their applications into sections. Usually, all the lifelong conditions will be grouped together. It\u2019s in this section that you will almost always find them mention Parkinson\u2019s. Here is an example of how they might ask about it.\nHave you ever been diagnosed with, been treated for, or taken medication for Parkinson\u2019s Disease?\nThere are some companies that will attach a specific time frame to it which is odd considering it\u2019s a condition that won\u2019t go away. However, it does happen. Here\u2019s an example of how one company in particular asks about it.\nIn the last 24 months, you had, been diagnosed with, or been treated for Parkinson\u2019s Disease?\nRegardless of how they ask, you should definitely say yes to these questions if you have been officially diagnosed with the condition.\nAlong with the health questions, the insurance companies will electronically analyze your prescription history. Their goal is merely to validate your health status. For example, if you had cancer recently, but didn\u2019t disclose it, your prescription history would reveal this fact.\nBelow is a list of the most common medications burial insurance companies have flagged for Parkinson\u2019s Disease. You will notice that some are bold, and some are not.\nIf you are taking any of bold medications and you don\u2019t have Parkinson\u2019s Disease, there are lots of companies that will not view you as a Parkinson\u2019s patient. The drugs in bold have multiple uses. Parkinson\u2019s is just one of them. For example, Requip is an extremely popular medication used to treat restless leg syndrome.\nConversely, if you have filled a prescription for any of the non bold medications, the insurance companies will certainly view you as person with Parkinson\u2019s patient. Even if you did not offer up the fact that you have the condition, these medications would essentially do it for you once they see it in your pharmacy history.\nParkinson\u2019s Disease has the capacity to produce side effects in your life that could potentially impact the underwriting process of burial insurance. Every Parkinson\u2019s patient experiences different degrees of symptoms and side effects. If you have experienced any of the below, you need to also take these into consideration as well.\nBecoming depressed is a very common side effect for this disease. In many cases, doctors will prescribe drugs meant to help you manage the depression that was brought on due to the Parkinson\u2019s.\nThankfully, depression is almost never an issue with most burial insurance companies. If you have depression brought on by Parkinson\u2019s, don\u2019t worry because there is almost no chance it will hinder or preclude your ability to secure coverage. You can read out piece on final expense insurance with depression if you want to know all the little details.\nIf your Parkinson\u2019s Disease progresses to the point where you need help, from anyone, with your daily activities of living, it will have a massive impact on the underwriting process. Just to be clear, insurance companies define activities of daily living as bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, taking medication, or eating. You may even see these abbreviated as ADL\u2019s.\nMost importantly, every single burial insurance company, except for Royal Neighbors of America, will ask if you need help with your ADL\u2019s. The thing is, that company also asks if you have Parkinson\u2019s. If you do, they would place you in their graded plan which costs more and it only pays out limited benefits during the first two years.\nGranted that is better than a full waiting period, but it\u2019s still not as good as full protection and the lowest rate possible. Most burial insurance companies will flat out decline anyone who needs help with their daily activities.\nIf you don\u2019t qualify with Royal Neighbors, your only option would be to take out a guaranteed issue life insurance policy from a company like Gerber Life. The policy has no health questions or medical checks. It\u2019s not that much more expensive, but it does come with a full two year waiting period before they will pay out a death benefit.\nIf you were to pass away during the waiting period, they would refund all of your premiums plus 10%.\nThis situation is identical to needing help with activities of daily living. Every single funeral insurance company will ask about this. The one exception is Royal Neighbors of America. If you can\u2019t qualify with them for some other reason, a guaranteed acceptance policy would be your only choice at that point.\nHonest Expectations When You Have Parkinson\u2019s\nNow you know how they ask about this condition, what medications they look for, and some other situations that could influence this whole process. Below are all the possible ways final expense life insurance companies could respond to an applicant who has Parkinson\u2019s.\n1) They Do Absolutely Nothing!\nYes it\u2019s true. There are actually some companies out there that could care less if you have Parkinson\u2019s Disease. Granted, there aren\u2019t very many of them, but they do exist. With them, you would pay the same rate they would charge a marathon runner. Not to mention, there would be no waiting period whatsoever.\nWe hope and pray you aren\u2019t ineligible with these companies due to some other health conditions you have.\n2) They Simply Charge You A Higher Monthly Premium\nThese companies choose to deal with the risk of taking on Parkinson\u2019s clients by simply charging them a higher monthly premium than someone without Parkinson\u2019s. In most cases, it\u2019s anywhere from 20-50% more. Keep in mind, these companies are still willing to give you a full day one benefit. They are simply charging you a higher monthly price. There is no other penalty.\n3) They Will Charge You More And Impose A Partial Waiting Period\nThis is honestly the most frequent response with most companies. Because of Parkinson\u2019s, they will put you into their \u201cgraded plan\u201d. That is the term most companies use to describe a plan that pays out a partial death benefit along with a higher monthly premium (20-50% more).\nUsually, they will pay out 30-40% of your death benefit if you die within the first year. If you pass during the second year, it\u2019s usually at 70-80% payout.\n4) They Will Charge You More Money And Impose A Full 2 Year Waiting Period\nIt\u2019s pretty much what the title says. They charge you more money, and they stipulate that they will not pay out a death benefit if you die within the first two years. Instead, they would give you back all your money plus interest. The interest is usually 10-20% (varies by company).\n5) They Decline You\nThere are actually some life insurance companies that will flat out turn away anyone with Parkinson\u2019s. Honestly, it really doesn\u2019t matter because there are plenty of other companies to choose from!\nWhy can\u2019t you just tell us what precisely to expect?\nIt\u2019s a valid question. However it\u2019s an impossible question to answer because there is so much that we don\u2019t know about you. Every burial insurance company will assess your health in multiple ways. There are many factors that must be taken into consideration before we can give anyone an honest and accurate expectation. Nobody, without knowing those details, could ever honestly tell you precisely what you should expect.\nHow To Find The Best Burial Insurance With Parkinson\u2019s Disease\nOkay so this is the million dollar question that everyone wants the answer to. We would love to be able to just type out a sentence that directs everyone to this golden plan that is universally the best for every Parkinson\u2019s patient. Unfortunately, that just isn\u2019t how life insurance works.\nThere are tons of variables in play that ultimately influence what your best option could be.\nHave you ever wondered why life insurance isn\u2019t sold in grocery stores?\nIt\u2019s because there are many factors to consider, and you need a qualified experienced agent to help you determine your best course of action.\nHere\u2019s some really cool news\nWe do have a simple formula that you can follow. If you heed this advice, it will put you in the right hands that will ultimately lead to you getting the best plan for you and your family.\nTo get the best burial insurance with Parkinson\u2019s, you must at all costs work with a highly experienced independent brokerage (like Choice Mutual) that has free access to many different life insurance companies. At the end of the day, a company like this (even if it wasn\u2019t us) will assess your entire situation, and run quotes from all the burial insurance companies that look at your health most favorably. Then, it\u2019s just a matter of selecting which company offers you the best deal.\nAs you can see, your job is to put your faith into an experienced company that is properly equipped to help you. Even if you chose not to work with Choice Mutual for your burial insurance, you will still be in good hands if you follow our advice.\nJust make sure that you work with an agency that has at least 10 companies or more to choose from. Anything less and you are running the risk of getting a plan that is less than ideal.\nHopefully by now you can see that we truly are experts in this space. If you would like us to do the heavy lifting for you and give you impartial assistance, give us a call. You can also let us call you by filling out the quote form with your phone number.",

        "raw_content": "I happen to find myself in a world where men are assessed and addressed according to their results. Everybody wants to see what you are offering; what you are bringing to the table. If you went to high school in my days, especially in my part of the world, then you have a clue of the pressure I was in always to come out tops in class (though I do not always come out tops). Every time I go below a certain level of performance, I often get to face this question: \u201cDo the other students who performed better than you have more heads than you do?\u201d You know what I am talking about, don\u2019t you?\nResults are very important as they form the major defining moments of our lives. We address Barack Obama as the President of the United States of America because he was declared winner of the elections that brought him into power. Bill Gates can be referred to as one of the richest men in the world because his worth is public knowledge. Lionel Messi can be seen as the most prolific footballer in recent history because of the results he has been able to garner. The list goes on.\nAs much as I am interested in the results, I want to know how you got it. I appreciate the money you always give me, but no offence to your personality, can I also know how you made it? No doubt, I love the ambience and awesome atmosphere of your worship centre. But beyond that, how did you get to this point?\nDo not get it twisted, I am by no means envious of your attainments. As a matter of fact, I admire and desire them. I want to know how you got there. If there was anything I learnt in Mathematics, it is to always show how I got my results. Interestingly, I get more marks for my steps than I get for my results.\nFriends, if you must do great exploits and ground-breaking achievements, you must not only desire to see results, desire to know the process.\n\u201cBut desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you\u201d 1 Cor. 12:31 (ASV).\n#THE PROCESS\nPlease share with others and let it bless them as it blessed you\n\u00a9TRANSFORMING WORDS SERIES\n(Transforming the World through the Word)\nhttp://www.transformingwordseries.wordpress.com\nPosted in: Transforming Word Series\nEVERYDAY JESUS really fasts\nWords without God",

        "raw_content": "I hope you\u2019re having a good week. As I mentioned in this post, Saint Timothy\u2019s will be having a special weekend of adoration and prayer on the weekend of March 17th-19th. There will be forty hours of prayer and adoration in the main church, concluding with a special evening prayer service with Archbishop Hebda on Sunday, March 19th at 4:00 PM. Again, please mark your calendars for this special opportunity for prayer and spiritual growth for you and your family. This would be a great Lenten opportunity and challenge, or resolution, for you and your family to take time to be with the Lord as much as possible during this weekend in the midst of your very busy lives.\nIn the days and weeks ahead, I will be explaining the devotion more and explaining some of the prayer opportunities and prayer intentions throughout that weekend.\nWe\u2019ll start from the beginning. While it won\u2019t formally be part of the \u201cForty Hours\u201d of Eucharistic adoration, we will be having a special opportunity for \u201cLiving Stations of the Cross\u201d on that Friday, March 17th at 7:00 PM. This will take the place of the traditional stations. The living stations are the stations of the cross that the school children act out and help to bring the stations to life. We had them last year during the 2:00 stations and so many of you said how powerful they were and how you wished even more people could see them. The forty hours of adoration will not begin until 8:00, but these stations will informally begin our weekend. After the living stations, there will be a light reception in the basement of coffee and treats, hosted by the parish advisory council, before we begin the forty hours of adoration formally at 8:00 with exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in the main church and a visiting speaker.\nI will write more in the days ahead and unveil the full schedule soon. I look forward to a great weekend of prayer and spiritual renewal in our parish. I\u2019m also very grateful to the parish advisory council who is planning and working hard on this event behind the scenes. Thank you to a wonderful group for all of their hard work and planning.",

        "raw_content": "Wu Tang Clan Now Rapping About ICOs\nOne of Wu Tang Clan\u2019s members is apparently throwing himself behind a new ICO\nThe spate of celebrity endorsement continues, as now it has emerged that Wu Tang Clan member Ghostface Killah has apparently co founded an ICO that he is hoping will raise upwards of $30 mln.\nGhostface is not the first celebrity to get involved in ICOs, as seen with the likes of Floyd Mayweather, Luis Suarez, Paris Hilton and Jamie Foxx.\nWhile these celebrity endorsements were hailed at the beginning, they are being met with more and more mixed reviews, as many worry that these ICOs are paying to be pumped and that they are not strong investments that can stand on their own.\nCrypto rules everything around me\nCream Capital, the company apparently co-founded by Ghostface, has said its aim is to raise the $30 mln through an ICO, a method of crowdfunding that has come under a lot more scrutiny in recent times.\nBrett Westbrook, chief executive at Cream Capital, also calls for caution when it comes to these types of celebrity endorsements, stating that there should be a strong understanding of the Blockchain Technology underpinning them.\n\"I think the interest of celebrities is a bit of a double-edged sword,\" Westbrook explained. \"I personally think that anything that puts cryptocurrencies in front of the eyes of everyday people is a great thing for the markets overall. On the other hand, I believe it's important that celebrities know the importance of their endorsements and understand the underlying principles of Blockchain technology,\"\n\"The last thing we need is a household name promoting what turns out to be a scam ICO,\" he added.\nThe clue is in the name, as Cream Capital is an acronym for a famous Wu Tang Clan song, Cash Rules Everything Around Me. However, the word Cash has been changed to Crypto.\nCream Capital is looking to simply be a form of digital currency, and will be integrated into debit cards that can be used in any store or other vendor that accepts card payments.\nCream Capital said it has operational cryptocurrency ATMs active in North Carolina, and intends to capture \"more than half of the global cryptocurrency ATM market\" by 2020.",

        "raw_content": "Decaisnea fargesii.\nAcer cappadocicum aureum and Acer rubrum October Glory.\nOn the last day of 1999, I retired from gainful employment and started planting an arboretum. I thought at the time that I was just filling in a field corner, but planting fever got the better of me. Over the previous few years I had planted a number of small woods under the aegis of the Woodland Grant Scheme, which restricted me to native British species, and I was now filled with the urge to do something more exotic. It happened that my then favourite nursery (Hartshall near Walsham-le- Willows) was about to close down, so I walked round with the proprietor and bought some of his remaining stock. I planted these in the corner of a field adjacent to our garden and the arboretum was born.\nIt sounds a bit pretentious to call my trees an arboretum but the simplest definition of the word is \u201ca collection of trees\u201d and that is what I have. Charles Sprague Sargent, founder of the Arnold Arboretum which is part of Harvard University, used to say, apparently, that in order to start an arboretum it was necessary to have a thousand acres with an endowment of at least a million dollars. He quickly managed to prove himself wrong when he started his own arboretum with a mere 125 acres and 100,000 dollars.\nMy own arboretum is slightly less ambitious \u2013 about 6 or 7 acres which is as much as I can handle. I can\u2019t quite compete with Sargent but I shall have just as much fun and I especially enjoy the fact that its all my own work. (or would be if James my tree-planter-in-chief did not dig the holes for me while I lean on my spade and try to calculate where the next tree should go).\nMy planting has been financed by gradually cutting down the cricket bat willows which I planted about 25 years ago on a particularly wet part of the site. These willows were originally to have paid for my youngest son\u2019s education but the 1987 hurricane blew down half of them and a similar storm 3 years later blew down half of the remainder. Following the hurricane, willow was in short supply and I got a very good price for the twisted remains of my trees, but even so, as a fee-paying plan it was something less than a success.\nEuonymus planipes.\nBefore starting any serious planting, I had over a number of years restored all my farm hedges, most of which were suffering from the ravages of stubble burning and roundup, while a number had been rooted out in line with post war agricultural policy. One of my main objectives had been to shelter the garden from the west wind which is often pretty brutal round here. To this end I had also planted quite a number of hybrid poplars many of which had to be cut down once I started planting the arboretum. Although these poplars had done a good job in helping to change the microclimate, they proved to be a remarkable anti-investment. The original whips cost about 15p each, but it cost roughly \u00a3350 a time to cut them down 25 years later and an additional 10% or so to grind the stumps out. The timber was worthless.\nA very minor stream (known as the Cambridge Brook) flows through the middle of the farm in the rainy season creating a small damp valley. This is where I started planting among a mass of meadowsweet and nettles. My initial, not very original, plan was to plant groups of trees of the same genus but I soon ran into trouble. It is impossible to know in advance how many trees will end up in each group and how far away to start planting the next genus. The same conditions do not anyway suit all the members of the same genus and in no time at all I had decided that the plan was impractical. Not so the genius behind the planting at the celebrated Abbey Park Cemetery in Stoke Newington which until Kew opened was said to be the biggest arboretum in Europe. The 2500 different species which surrounded the cemetery were set out alphabetically, starting with Acer and ending with Zanthoxylum (the American toothache tree.)\nHaving rather a vague idea of what the limits of the arboretum were going to be, I twice found myself starting my planting year by enlarging the overall boundary and expanding into more easily plantable meadow. By the end of 2006, I was faced with having to plant an extremely wet bit, in fact it was more or less a bog. That provided me with an excellent excuse to go on an International Dendrological Society expedition to the U.S.A. which happened to include a visit to the Great Bear Swamp in Philadelphia, famous among other things for the large number of bald eagles that live there. Although summers in Philadelphia are very much hotter than here, I wanted to see what trees grew in the swamp as it appeared from the reference books that most of them would grow without difficulty in the UK. This turned out to be the case. The main species were Liriodendron tulipifera (tulip trees or what the Americans call yellow poplars), Acer rubrum (red maples), Nyssa sylvatica, and Magnolia virginiana (Sweetbay magnolia). Come the autumn, we planted all these species in quantity and they have flourished, with the exception of the magnolias which look as if they need another dose of global warming if they are ever going to flower.\nApart from Hartshall, my most important source of trees when I started off was Mount Pleasant Trees at Rockhampton on the Bristol Channel. Mount Pleasant\u2019s specimen tree catalogue for 1997 listed just 292 species of specimen tree, with a splendidly quirky description of each. I found it compulsive bed- time reading. One of the nursery\u2019s greatest claims to fame was that it had the most complete collection of limes for sale in the country and as I was still working on my original plan, I soon acquired the majority of them, thus solving the problem of which species to plant first. A year or two later, Mount Pleasant, to my eternal disappointment, gave up its specialist business, thus depriving its faithful clients of the annual excitement of reading their catalogue. But by 1992 another star was rising \u2013 Bluebell Nurseries in Ashby de la Zouch which now has what I think the best and most comprehensive catalogue of out-of-the-ordinary trees in England. Furthermore, Ashby de la Zouch seems to have the same sort of hostile climate as we do, which causes me to feel that if a plant can survive there, it ought to be able to survive on the Essex/Suffolk borders. More recently, I have discovered Pan-Global Plants in Frampton-on- Severn which sells a small but even more exotic selection of hardy trees. Unfortunately, they do not deliver and the last time I went the very fine wrought iron gates were locked against me. Nevertheless, it is well worth persisting.\nAcer rubrum Red Sunset, Liquidambar acalycina, and Populus tremula erecta.\nFrustrated by the difficulties of finding the plants I want, I have, for the last few years, bought an annual consignment from Esveld in Boskoop in Holland. The nursery is vast and among other things claims to have the largest collection of acers in the world (crammed into about an acre and a half \u2013 the whole nursery is only 10 acres). Esveld\u2019s catalogue is enormous \u2013 my 2007-2008 one has 558 pages. Unfortunately, delivery costs have suddenly shot up, so it\u2019s sensible to combine a visit to the nursery with the other pleasures of Amsterdam and make a week-end of it. Boskoop is an astonishing place for plant buyers as it has almost 1000 nurseries side by side. (750, anyway \u2013 estimates vary widely). I also use the much smaller nursery of Rein and Mark Bulk, next door to Esveld, which specialises in rare field-grown woody plants. Bulk, too, publishes a wonderful catalogue and the nursery is a great deal less exhausting than Esveld.\nfinally standardised on aluminium labels on which I etch details with an electronic engraving tool. This is a slowish process, but the labels do stand up to the elements. The one major drawback is that deer, bizarrely, are attracted to the labels rather like salmon to a fly and enthusiastically chew them, if they get the chance, unpalatable though they might be. As a result, the labels have to be hung on the rabbit wire round the base of the tree rather than on the tree itself. Finally, I use very strong plastic coated wire with which to attach the label as this also deters other predators such as humans.\nPart of the Arboretum.\nBetula jacquemontii and Acer rubrum October Glory.\nI am often asked if there is some master plan or theme behind my planting and, having abandoned my idea of planting neat little groups of different genera, it took me some considerable time to find a suitable answer. I now tell people that my purpose is to try to grow any woody plant that can survive the harsh winds, horrible spring frosts, and frequent droughts of East Anglia. Apart from the climate, our biggest problem is keeping the deer at bay. We are host to 3 species \u2013 muntjac, roe and fallow, all of which are increasing alarmingly, but it is the fallow which do by far the most damage, as they are able to pull down branches from a height of 6 to 8 feet. In the early spring a herd of 30 or so frequently takes up residence with us leaving a trail of broken branches each morning. We have a stalker who rarely goes out without bagging one or two but this has, so far, made no noticeable difference to overall numbers. Every tree we plant has to be surrounded with pig wire in addition to rabbit wire, and it is at least ten years before the wire can be disassembled.\nIt is now well over 12 years since I started planting and the landscape has changed dramatically. At the latest count we had over 400 species and varieties, so that labelling and maintaining the labels is a time-consuming job. There is, however, little point in having an arboretum if the trees are not properly labelled \u2013 from a scientific point of view, the collection would be valueless. I have tried out several labelling systems and know to my cost that there is no such thing as a cheap and easy one. I have On May 3rd 2011 we suffered the most destructive frost in the 44 years since we came here. Following a spell of warm weather the trees had been growing at a furious pace and, after the frost, looked as if they had been attacked with a flame thrower. Despair set in and I resolved never to plant another tree. Three months later it was difficult to tell that anything untoward had happened and, following a visit to Pan-global, I was unable to resist putting in an order . . .\nOnce again Jeremy has written another interesting article. However, he is threatening that this will be his last! If you should see him, please tell him that he is too good to stop!\nLeaves: Acer rubrum Autumn Blaze.",

        "title": "Bible prophecy of economic crisis in 2015? \u22c6 Conservative Firing Line",
        "raw_content": "Bible prophecy of economic crisis in 2015?\nWhat if there is a pattern going back more than a decade in American history that shows that the last two economic crises occurred on a predictable seven year cycle? What if this pattern occurred at the same time as many other indications became evident, giving reason to believe that the pattern itself was not a coincidence? Would it be possible to predict when the next economic crisis would occur and prepare for it? Is there Bible prophecy of economic crisis that will occur on September 13, 2015?\nRabbi Jonathan Cahn believes that he has discovered just such a pattern within recent American history that stretches back before the September 11 attacks of 2001. Cahn, the author of the best-selling book, \u201cThe Harbinger,\u201d discovered the astounding fact that the financial crashes of 2001 and 2008 both occurred on the same day of Jewish calendar. What\u2019s more, that date was the very day and year of the Jewish calendar on which ancient Biblical law called for debts to be erased.\n\u201cThe Harbinger\u201d gained immediate popularity, but was also the subject of fierce criticism from some theologians. Cahn had answered much of this criticism is interviews. Additionally, Jose Bernal has written a valuable book answering the critics of \u201cThe Harbinger.\u201d Bernal\u2019s book is \u201cThe Truth About the Harbinger.\u201d\nCahn\u2019s discovery centers around the Shemitah years on the Jewish calendar. The Shemitah (Sabbath or sabbatical) year was established in Deuteronomy 15:1-2 when the ancient Israelites were instructed, \u201cAt the end of every seven years you shall grant a release of debts. And this is the form of the release: Every creditor who has lent anything to his neighbor shall release it; he shall not require it of his neighbor or his brother, because it is called the Lord\u2019s release.\u201d\nThe traditional day to forgive debts was Elul 29, the last day of the Jewish year. In 2001, this date occurred on September 17, the largest single day crash of the stock market in U.S. history according to rankings by the Wall St. Journal. The crash occurred as financial markets reopened in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks. Seven years later, the Elul 29 of 2008 was on September 29. This date superseded September 17, 2001 as the largest stock market crash as prices collapsed after the House of Representatives voted down a bipartisan plan to bail out banks with tainted \u201ctoxic\u201d mortgage securities.\nNow Cahn has released a new book, \u201cThe Mystery of the Shemitah.\u201d Charisma News says the new book details Cahn\u2019s new discoveries about the Shemitah cycle that extend farther back in American history more than 100 years. World Net Daily notes that the book debuted at number five on Amazon\u2019s Top 100 list. This is in spite of the fact that Cahn fell ill as the book was published and could not go on a promotional tour.\nCahn\u2019s theory does not merely hinge on the fact that dates on the Jewish calendar match up to catastrophic events in American history. In \u201cThe Harbinger,\u201d Cahn points out many other parallels between recent events in the United States to events thousands of years ago just prior to the destruction of ancient Israel at the hands of the Assyrians, the ancestors of today\u2019s radical Islamists. Cahn asserts that these specific parallels, including specific words, dates and actions, mean that God is shaking Americans in attempt to warn them about impending judgment if the country remains on its current course. The specific details of the parallels are too numerous to discuss here, but were addressed in a previous Examiner review of \u201cThe Harbinger.\u201d\nIn \u201cThe Harbinger,\u201d Cahn makes the point that the September 11 attacks were similar to an early attack by the Assyrians on ancient Israel. Rather than accepting the attack as a warning and a call to repentance, the Israelites made a vow of defiance, echoed in Isaiah 9:10. Interestingly, two prominent American elected officials referenced this obscure verse in the wake of the September 11 attacks and President Obama paraphrased it in reference to the 2008 financial collapse.\nCahn goes on to describe how the September 11 attacks led to both record-breaking stock market crashes which occurred exactly seven years apart on the Jewish calendar. One of the main tools used to stave off a recession in the wake of the attacks was a cut in interest rates. With interest rates at abnormally low levels, saving was discouraged and people were motivated to take advantage of cheap loans to buy houses. The increased demand for real estate inflated a bubble that eventually burst in 2008, causing the financial crisis.\nThe process by which a nation attempts to defy God\u2019s plans for judgment and call for repentance by using its own devices to resolve the crisis is referred to as the Isaiah 9:10 effect by Rabbi Cahn. The irony is that the action of the nation under judgment instead \u201csets about a chain of events that brings about the very calamity that it sought to avert,\u201d as Cahn wrote in \u201cHarbinger.\u201d\nOn September 13, 2015, one year from today, will come the next Elul 29 of a Shemitah year. The Shemitah year begins on the evening of September 24, 2014 according to American calendars. September 25 is Rosh Hashanah, Tishrei 1 of the Jewish year 5775. The entire year is Shemitah, but Cahn writes in \u201cThe Mystery of the Shemitah\u201d that \u201cit is at the Shemitah\u2019s end (September 13, 2015) and its wake that the most dramatic repercussions are felt.\u201d\nIn a 2013 interview, Examiner asked Rabbi Cahn whether he believed that September 13, 2015 would be the date of another \u201cshaking\u201d or judgment. \u201cI haven\u2019t been led to be dogmatic concerning what may or may not happen,\u201d he answered, \u201cbut I think it\u2019s wise to keep our eyes open.\u201d\nIn \u201cThe Mystery of the Shemitah\u201d he goes further. Cahn points out that since September 13, 2015 is on Sunday, American financial markets will not be open that day, but \u201cthere is the possibility of a trigger event that takes place outside the time of the markets\u2019 openings that could bring about a market collapse \u2013 as in the case of 9/11.\u201d He also notes that the last day that markets will be open prior to Elul 29 will be Friday, September 11, 2015.\nCahn also points out that there will be two solar eclipses in 2015. The first will be on the exact center point of the Shemitah, March 20. The other will occur on the last day of the Shemitah: Elul 29 or September 13.\nNevertheless, he writes, \u201cNothing significant has to happen\u2026. The phenomenon may manifest itself in one cycle, not in another, and then again in the next. And the focus of the message is not date-setting but the call of God to repentance and return. At the same time, something of significance could take place, and it is wise to note the times.\u201d\nWhether a shaking and judgment occurs in this Shemitah or not, Cahn leaves no doubt that, without repentance, it will occur. \u201cNo nation,\u201d he writes, \u201ccan defy the ways and will of Him who is its source of blessings and expect those blessings to continue.\u201d\nAlthough he has no specific message on what lies ahead, Cahn does have advice for believers. He speculates that the timing of the completion of the new tower on the World Trade Center site may be of note. One World Trade Center, often called the Freedom Tower, is expected to open in 2014 after numerous construction delays. The first tower in the complex, 4 World Trade Center, officially opened on November 13, 2013.\nCahn also suggests that \u201cit would be wise to take note of America\u2019s crossing of key thresholds in its spiritual and moral descent.\u201d This could possibly suggest a link to a ruling on same-sex marriage, support for Israel, persecution of Christian believers, or a variety of other issues that deal with Christianity that are being discussed in the public square today. Cahn cites \u201cthe offering of their sons and daughters in the fires of Baal and Molech\u201d as the \u201csin that would bring about the nation [of Israel]\u2019s destruction.\u201d The parallel in the United States might be sacrifice of more than one million Americans annually through abortion.\nIn the end, although Cahn is uncertain about the nature of judgment as well as its timing, he writes, \u201cI believe a great shaking is coming to this nation and to the world. I believe that this shaking will involve economic and financial collapse, though it will not necessarily be confined or limited to those realms.\u201d\nGiven the current state of the American economy and the world, Americans, regardless of their spiritual beliefs, would do well to prepare for hard times.\nRead the full article on Atlanta Conservative Examiner\nPrevious articleA Repackaging of Failed Policies\nNext articleWar\u2026America is Indeed at War",

        "raw_content": "Top Tips on Buy-To-Let Properties\nThe demand for rental properties across the UK has made being a landlord an appealing investment prospect.\nIf you\u2019re buying a property with the intention of letting it out, it\u2019s imperative you get the right type of mortgage.\nA buy-to-let mortgage allows you to borrow money to purchase a property which you rent out to tenants.

The bank will assess how risky the loan is, how much the deposit is and your credit score.\nBanks and building societies charge higher rates for buy-to-let properties as they are a riskier loan.\nAffordability is assessed by a calculator that weights up personal income and expected rental income against the property. Most lenders will require the annual rental income to equal at least 125% of the annual mortgage repayments.\nStatistics show that borrowers are more likely to default on a buy-to-let than a residential mortgage. This accounts for the higher rates. The required rental income buffer on top of mortgage interest due is there to allow for a periods where the property sits empty.\nDo You Qualify For A Buy-To-Let Mortgage?\nA list of other eligibility criteria must be met for buy-to-let mortgages. For example a minimum age, often 25, and a minimum income of around \u00a325,000.\nNo more than three buy-to-let loans can be held at once and there is a cap on the total amount you can borrow.\nCompare The Best Buy-To-Let Conveyancing Quotes\nAs a Buy-to-let investor you can quickly compare competitive conveyancing quotes online.

Conveyancing is a complicated legal process and it\u2019s important to understand it prior to applying for a buy-to-let mortgage.\nChoice Of Mortgage Deals\nYou will usually have a choice of mortgage deals, including fixed rate and tracker loans. Arrangement fees also apply although they can be high, typically more than \u00a31,000.\nMany landlords like fixed-rate mortgages which allow for more accurate budgeting. Whilst tracker loans are often cheaper they may fluctuate.\nImportant Points For Consideration\nBuying to let can be risky.\nCan you cope if your property is empty for a period of time?\nWhat will you do if your tenants don\u2019t pay?\nIf you use a letting agent and the property is un-tenanted will you have to pay letting agent fees? Don\u2019t forget you will also have to pay your mortgage.\nWill you use a letting agent?\nIf not, you will need to do written agreements, take personal information, references etc yourself?\nDo you have contingency budget for repairs?\nIf you are doing this alongside a full time job do you have time to be a landlord?\nTenancy agreements should be legal documents, you will need to have these drawn up\nYou have a responsibility to your tenants\nYour property should pass relevant health and safety and fire checks:\nGas safety certificates for all appliances\nYou will need specific landlord insurance\nWhilst becoming a landlord has pros and cons if considered carefully it can make a fantastic investment. There are many people who have no desire to own their own home and looking for a reliable landlord.\nA buy-to-let mortgage is a mortgage designed for people buying properties they intend to let out. They work by providing you with a loan to purchase a property which is let to tenants, or to allow the refinancing of an existing property that you rent out.\nWhat Percentage Do I Need For Buy-To-Let?\nInterest rates on buy-to-let mortgages are usually higher than standard mortgages. The minimum deposit for a buy-to-let mortgage is usually 25% of the property\u2019s value (although it can vary between 20-40%).\nWhat Is The Criteria For A Buy-To-Let Mortgage?\nThe minimum income requirement is usually \u00a325,000 for a buy-to-let mortgage application. You will also have to meet other affordability criteria set by the lender.\nCan First Time Buyers Buy-To-Let?\nYes you can, but you may be limited when it comes to getting a mortgage. This is because most lenders need you to own your own residential property, sometimes for at least six months, before they will offer you a buy to let mortgage.\nAre Buy-To-Let Mortgages More Expensive?\nBuy-to-let mortgages are typically about 1% more expensive than ordinary residential mortgages. This is because banks view buy to let mortgages as higher risk than owner-occupier mortgages. Some buy-to-let mortgages also have higher arrangement fees, sometimes up to 3.5 per cent of the property value.\nDo I Need A Buy-To-Let Mortgage?\nTo rent out a property you need a buy-to-let mortgage. You\u2019ll usually need a deposit of at least 25 per cent of the property purchase price. Many buy-to-let mortgages are interest only, which means you only pay the interest each month rather than paying off the debt. When you sell the property you repay the capital in full.\nCan I Have 2 Mortgages?\nYes, you can have two mortgages. You need to be able to demonstrate to the new lender that you can afford to pay both mortgages. The lender will usually deduct the monthly payment for your old mortgage from your income before calculating the maximum borrowing limit for the new purchase.\nAre Buy-To-Let Mortgages Cheaper?\nActually, buy-to-let mortgages are usually more expensive.They are typically about one percentage point more expensive than residential mortgages. This is because banks view tenants as higher risk than owner-occupiers. Some buy-to-let mortgages also have high arrangement fees \u2013 as much as 3.5 per cent of the property value.\nWhat Is LTV For Buy-To-Let?\nThe amount you can borrow in relation to the property value is called the loan-to-value or LTV. It is generally lower for Buy-To-Let mortgages, so you wouldn\u2019t be able to get this type of mortgage with just a 10% deposit.\nCan You Get Tax Relief On A Mortgage?\nMortgage interest relief is administered via Tax Relief at Source (TRS). You do not have to be earning a taxable income to qualify for mortgage interest relief. Normally, you do not claim mortgage interest relief in an annual tax return because it is given directly to you by your mortgage lender.",

        "raw_content": "8 of the best lighthouses in Canada\nLighthouses are an iconic part of Canada\u2014and not just in the Maritimes. Ontario, Manitoba, and British Columbia also have lighthouses that played an important part in the history of our nation. Here are the most impressive and well-known lighthouses across the land.\nCape Spear Lighthouse, Newfoundland\nLocated on the most eastern point of North America, the lighthouse at Cape Spear has been there since 1836. It was the second lighthouse to be built in Newfoundland, and was powered first by oil, then acetylene, before turning to electricity in 1930. Because of its strategic location during World War II, a gun battery was also built here.\nPeggy\u2019s Cove Lighthouse, Nova Scotia\nThere aren\u2019t many lighthouses as famous as the one in Peggy\u2019s Cove. One of the busiest tourist attractions in Nova Scotia, the original lighthouse was built in 1868. It was replaced in 1915 by the 15-metre-high, red-and-white tower that still stands today. Marking the entrance of St. Margarets Bay, the granite outcropping where the tower stands is one of the most iconic images of the Maritimes.\n\u00cele aux Perroquets lighthouse, Quebec\nThis lighthouse was built in 1988 on a tiny island situated on the far eastern reach of Quebec\u2019s Gulf of the Saint Lawrence. Prior to the lighthouse\u2019s construction, two ships sunk in the region\u2019s treacherous waters.\nCap-des-Rosier, Quebec\nStanding at 34.1 metres tall, the Cap-des-Rosier lighthouse in Gasp\u00e9, Quebec became a National Historic site in 1973 and a Federal Heritage Building in 1994. It was built in 1858 and has guided ships ever since. Situated atop the rugged cliffs of a dramatic shoreline, this is one picture-perfect lighthouse.\nBig Tub Lighthouse, Ontario\nThe Big Tub lighthouse was built in 1885 for just $675 and became an important part of guiding ships into the Tobermory Harbour. The surrounding waters, where Georgian Bay and Lake Huron meet, can be notoriously dangerous as evidenced by two shipwrecks that are visible from the lighthouse. The bay now also attracts scuba divers from around the world.\nGeorge Island Lighthouse, Manitoba\nThe George Island lighthouse is on Lake Winnipeg, 400 kilometres north of Winnipeg. Built in 1906 to aid navigation in the treacherous North Basin, it stands 15.5 metres tall and became fully automated in 1981.\nFisgard Lighthouse, British Columbia\nGuiding boats into the Esquimalt Harbour just west of Victoria, B.C., the Fisgard Lighthouse has been operational since 1860. As the first lighthouse on the country\u2019s west coast, it\u2019s now a National Historic Site.\nEstevan Point Lighthouse, British Columbia\nLocated on the western shore of Vancouver Island, the lighthouse at Estevan Point was built in 1909 and stands 30.5 metres tall. In 1942 it was attacked by a Japanese submarine that fired 25 to 30 rounds at the lighthouse but failed to hit it. No one was injured, but the following decision to turn off lights on the outer stations proved to be disastrous for shipping activity.\nNext StoryNot-so-shocking almanac report predicts cold... winter for Canada",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 kakukaku shikajika\nfull metal panic \u2192\nI\u2019ve been posting anime reviews (and recently a manga review) on this site pretty consistently for the last year or so. At the end of each review, I provide a list of scores which reflect how well I feel the anime or manga in question fulfills certain criteria that help me to determine how subjectively \u201cgood\u201d it is, however I realize I have never actually defined these various parameters. I figured it would be a good idea to lay this out in writing, so I can reference this post in future reviews (and retroactively update the old ones) to give some solidity to my scores.\nA note on scoring \u2014 if you\u2019ve read this blog at all in the past, or know me IRL, it probably comes as no surprise that I love rating and listing things. I don\u2019t know why, exactly; all I know is that sites like RateYourMusic and MyAnimeList are Godsends to people like me. I understand why some people wouldn\u2019t want to attach a number to represent how \u201cgood\u201d something is, but I really do \u2014 firstly because it helps me maintain organization and it helps me to reference the \u201cbest\u201d of things at any given time (i.e. if someone asks \u201cWhat\u2019s a good anime to watch given X and Y criteria?\u201d I can look through my list and quickly get an answer), and secondly because it just works better in my head, and it gives me a point of reference. I have no problem changing ratings as time goes on and my opinion changes; throughout this blog, any ratings/reviews provided on any given anime or manga or whatever are a reflection of what I was feeling at the time I posted the rating or review. But I feel like they can be helpful to those who don\u2019t want to sit and read through my often long-winded reviews, and in any case I feel like posting my scores at the end acts as a nice general summary and wrap-up.\n\u2026Who am I justifying this to, anyway? It\u2019s my blog, after all. Oh well.\nAaaanyway, here\u2019s a breakdown of the various scores I give and how they\u2019re weighted, as well as what I look for when I score each one:\nCharacters: How relatable are the characters? Are they interesting? Multi-dimensional? Do I care about them? Do they contribute to the overall story in a meaningful way? The more the main characters in an anime do these things or meet these criteria, the higher this score will be. (Weight: 15% of overall score)\nAnimation: Animation doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be \u201cpretty\u201d or take advantage of modern techniques to get a high score here. Does the style contribute to the overall feel of the anime? Does it stand out in some way? Are color palettes utilized to intensify mood? Generally, the more unique the animation feels, the better this will score. (Weight: 15% of overall score)\nStory: How much does the story suck me in? Is the story told in an engaging manner? Is it consistent within its own framework? Does it end with all the loose ends tied up, assuming they need to be? Do I care about the things that happen to the characters? In general, the best stories are also the ones I haven\u2019t heard before, so creativity in the category goes a long way. I don\u2019t care how convoluted or straightforward the story is \u2013 if it\u2019s well thought-out and executed in a thoughtful manner, that\u2019s what is most important. (Weight: 25% of overall score)\nPacing: Does the series/movie/OVA end where it should, or is it too long or short? Are there too many filler episodes? Do certain episodes tend to drag with no purpose? Basically, is the anime engaging on a consistent enough basis to make me want to keep watching? (Weight: 10% of overall score)\nSound design: Not always terribly important in my book to how I perceive an anime, although in a few cases it makes a sizable difference. Is music used in an effective way? Does it enhance the mood? Does it make sense in the context of what\u2019s happening around it? How does voice acting contribute to the characters\u2019 personalities? Are there any voices, sound effects, etc. that feel out of place? Usually I only really notice this if it\u2019s outstanding or really poor, so there probably won\u2019t be many middling scores. (Weight: 5% of overall score)\n*Please note: Up through 11/2018, this score was only for evaluating the impact of music on an anime. Since then I have decided to make this score about overall sound design, which includes music as well as other elements.\nPersonal value: The most subjective category, this is how much I liked the anime in spite of everything else. Sometimes, I can objectively say that the characters sucked, the animation was boring, and the story was mediocre and still really enjoy the anime. Some things, anime and otherwise, just have that je ne sais quoi that makes them enjoyable in spite of their flaws, and this score measures that. Ultimately, this score probably best reflects what I think of the anime as a whole. (Weight: 30% of overall score)\nOverall: The above scores added together, taking their various weights into account, and put into an \u201cout of 100\u201d for context (rounded to the nearest whole number). This does not necessarily reflect accurately on my personal opinion of the anime (the \u201cpersonal value\u201d category will be the best numerical reference), although it does give a good idea of whether the anime is generally worth watching or not for the average viewer. If you want the most detailed look into what I really think, obviously, the review itself is the place to look.\nPlease note that manga is reviewed with the categories above altered somewhat, due to some key differences between anime and manga; obviously, there is no \u201cMusic\u201d rating, and instead of \u201cAnimation\u201d I rate the \u201cArt\u201d, which takes into account the mangaka\u2019s technical skill with character designs and backgrounds, as well as other aspects such as visual composition, creative use of panels, etc. Finally, the weights are different as well (see below); notably, \u201cPacing\u201d is rated at 20% instead of 10%. This is because manga takes me a longer time to get through, usually, and a poorly paced story can end up being a huge waste of time for me, especially if the manga isn\u2019t consistently engaging.\nFor manga, the scores are weighted as follows:\nCharacters: 15% of overall score\nArt: 20% of overall score\nStory: 15% of overall score\nPacing: 20% of overall score\nPersonal value: 30% of overall score\nThis entry was posted in anime, manga, meta, reviews and tagged anime, manga.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 NEWS: Samantha Haggo and Lorna Jack Reach 100 Caps For Scotland\nKia Super League 2017 Preview \u2192\nINTERVIEW: Captain Megan Fairclough On How Lancashire Bounced Back To Become T20 Champions\nBack in May 2015, a bright dawn of optimism broke over women\u2019s cricket in Lancashire. Newly promoted to Div 1 of the Women\u2019s County Championship, the Lancashire Thunder \u2013 as they were known before that moniker was later taken over by the Super League team \u2013 promised great things. There was shiny new kit, a joint media day at Old Trafford with the men\u2019s team, and a heap of press coverage, including an interview with then-captain Jas Titmuss in All Out Cricket.\nThen the cricket started\u2026 and it all came crashing down.\nLancashire Thunder lost all 8 of their games in the County Championship that year, their season going from bad to worse as they were bowled out for 86 and 113 in their last two matches. They ended the season in last place on just 23 points. Notts \u2013 who finished just one place above them, and were also relegated \u2013 had 68.\nFast-forward two-and-a-bit years, however, and we are tweeting this:\nT20 CHAMPIONS!! pic.twitter.com/UvTk3id5S8\nLancashire \u2013 now back in Div 1 in both formats \u2013 have won the T20 Cup, and are currently 3rd in the County Championship.\nAnd they\u2019ve done it with basically the same team \u2013 9 of the players who played the last round of the T20 Cup, played in the disastrous 2015 season!\nSo what has changed, we asked captain Megan Fairclough:\n\u201cWe are experienced playing together now,\u201d she says. \u201cAfter the difficulty of a couple of years ago, when we went back down to Div 2, we showed great character \u2013 we bounced back and came back up.\u201d\nAnd there is an element of success breeding success:\n\u201cThe girls playing so well together constantly \u2013 playing such great games at the moment \u2013 is great motivation for everybody as well.\u201d\nWith Lancashire now just back to being \u201cLancashire\u201d, the \u201cThunder\u201d name has been taken up by the KSL side, and the resources which have been ploughed into building that team, with a full winter training program, have also made a big difference:\n\u201cIt is a good thing for us that we\u2019ve got so many players playing for the Kia Super League \u2013 8 of the squad is playing at Lancs Thunder, so they\u2019ve trained together, and having the Thunder girls together constantly is kind of an advantage.\u201d\nAnd whilst Fairclough is clearly not intentionally having a dig at players at other counties who only play county, she does stress the importance for all players of just PLAYING \u2013 county, club, or whatever:\n\u201cPeople are playing cricket outside of county as well, so they are getting games under their belts and constantly developing their skills.\u201d\nOne advantage Lancashire have had this season is that whilst other teams have been decimated by international call-ups, for Lancashire key players such as Kate Cross and Sophie Ecclestone have not been selected for England, and so have been available throughout; but whilst acknowledging this, Fairclough argues that there\u2019s more to it than that:\n\u201cIt can be seen as an advantage, but it\u2019s not just those two [Cross and Ecclestone] who have won us the games \u2013 it has been a team effort. There has been different people shining through \u2013 everyone has worked well and we\u2019ve worked well as a team.\u201d\nAnd looking at the numbers this is borne out: 3 players have scored over 250 runs \u2013 Emma Lamb (300), Eve Jones (292) and Natalie Brown (252) \u2013 and whilst Ecclestone is the season\u2019s leading wicket-taker by a country mile with 25, others have chipped in, including Rachel Dickinson (16), Natalie Brown (13) and Fairclough herself (12).\nNow with just two rounds of the Women\u2019s County Championship, can Lancashire pull-off the ultimate comeback and do The Double? They will be depending on other results to do so, but it is possible that their final fixture against current leaders Warwickshire will be a decider. Fairclough though is taking each match as it comes:\n\u201cWe\u2019ve still got a chance but we don\u2019t want to play the last two games under pressure so we\u2019re just going to take it a game at a time and play like we have done all season \u2013 not overthink anything, just do our basics well \u2013 we\u2019ll go out there and play our normal game and have fun.\u201d\nAnd who could argue that that is not what cricket is all about?",

        "raw_content": "Originally published in the Australian Financial Review on 26 May, 2015.\nThe changes announced in the 2015/16 federal budget demonstrate the limitations of piecemeal changes to the retirement income system.\nOn the one hand, reducing the pension entitlement for those with higher assets could be argued to improve fairness through better targeting. The corollary however is that the changes risk some reduction in the incentive to save for retirement. This could have negative consequences for the adequacy of ultimate retirement savings.\nWhile improved pension targeting is a worthwhile goal, there are also issues with post retirement arrangements that need to be addressed, as recommended by the Murray report. An even greater issue from the perspective of confidence and acceptance is the poor targeting of superannuation concessions, which go beyond compensation for compulsory saving and incentives for additional contributions.\nSuccessive governments have used the retirement income system as a short-term budgetary and political tool rather than as a platform for encouraging long-term self-provision.\nIt might be argued that the system just needs tweaking but is otherwise basically on track. Twenty years of tweaking, however, have resulted in a highly complex system that has deviated from its primary purpose of providing incomes for retirement.\nIt might also be argued that Australians have lived with this situation for 20 years, so what difference will another term or two of government make? There are several reasons why persevering with the current flaws in the system is not a sustainable option.\nThe first is increasing longevity. Current life expectancy at age 60 for a woman is 29 years and for a man is 26 years. This represents a full 10 years longer for women than would have been expected in 1960, and 11 years longer for men. While this suggests that individuals will likely spend more of their lives in full or semi-retirement, the bigger challenge from a retirement planning perspective is the wide variation of individual life expectancy around these means.\nSecond, with the bulk of the baby boomers now moving into retirement, the system is transitioning from accumulation to de-accumulation. So, how superannuation assets are best used to provide income throughout the years of retirement takes on increased importance.\nThe system is deficient in this respect, with only a narrow range of retirement solutions available to members and little requirement to use accumulated balances for retirement income purposes. This means many retirees are left to manage the risk that they outlive their savings. The limited financial literacy of the average retiree, coupled with the huge complexity of retirement decision-making leaves individuals vulnerable.\nThird, member superannuation balances have risen dramatically over the past 20 years. While the average balance was $15,000 in 1996, by 2009 it had grown four-fold. Median personal balances at retirement of about $100,000 today are projected to more than double by 2020. Underlying these rising balances are sizable tax expenditures, raising the importance of ensuring these balances are not frittered away.\nFinally, the current economic and financial environment of record low long-term nominal returns will test the limits of traditional retirement investment solutions. Those preparing for retirement will have to accept a lot more risk than previous generations to generate their desired flow of income. Obstacles to developing a broader range of retirement products need to be removed to ensure that individuals are better placed to manage longevity risk.\nGiven these factors, bipartisan agreement on the objectives of the superannuation system as recommended by the Murray report, and reform of the system to realign it with those objectives, is needed. Left unchecked, the retirement income system is likely to face the worse of both possible worlds \u2013 low retirement adequacy coupled with rising budgetary costs.\nPostponement of a holistic reassessment of the system and delaying the implementation of reforms will only make the ultimate adjustment task more difficult.\nPatricia Pascuzzo is executive director and founder of the Committee for Sustainable Retirement Incomes.\nBlog, Media Coverage\tholistic, longevity, policy, reform, Retirement Income\n\u2190 CSRI Welcomes PM Summit Agreement Super Tax Reform\nTime to Deal with Super System\u2019s Flaws \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: Sexual Wellness\nIt\u2019s not about \u2018clean\u2019: Dismantling the language of HIV stigma\nBy J. Richelle Joe and Sarah B. Parkin June 5, 2018\nWords matter. The language we use when discussing sensitive, controversial or stigmatized topics reflects and shapes our attitudes and beliefs about those topics. Such is the case with HIV and AIDS. Since being widely identified in the 1980s, HIV and AIDS have been perceived negatively by the general public, resulting in the pervasive use of language that characterizes those living with the virus or the disease as undesirable and even dangerous.\nThe counseling context is not immune to such damaging language, and it is reasonable to infer that words have a powerful influence on mental health and counseling outcomes for people living with HIV. Counselors must beware of the power of language; outdated information about HIV and AIDS can intersect with the inadvertent use of stigmatizing language and undermine the ethical principles of nonmaleficence and beneficence that form the foundation of our profession. We also have a responsibility to actively oppose HIV- and AIDS-related bias and stigma by educating ourselves about HIV and AIDS and changing the language we use when discussing them.\nLet\u2019s start by offering a quick guide to HIV and AIDS terminology:\nHIV: Human immunodeficiency virus; people can be diagnosed with HIV and not have an AIDS diagnosis\nAIDS: Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; caused by HIV\nCD4 cells: Cells that are a part of the body\u2019s immune system; also known as T cells\nViral load: The amount of HIV particles in the body\nOpportunistic infections: Illnesses, including certain types of cancer, that occur more often when someone has a weakened immune system\nART: Antiretroviral therapy, a common treatment for HIV\nPrEP: Pre-exposure prophylaxis, daily medication that can reduce one\u2019s risk of contracting HIV\nPEP: Post-exposure prophylaxis; prescribed use of ART within 72 hours of a possible exposure to HIV\nViral suppression: When the amount of HIV particles in an individual\u2019s system decreases to the point that the virus is not detectable by current tests; occurs when an individual is adherent to treatment; also known as having an undetectable viral load\nThe changing face of HIV and AIDS\nIn the United States, AIDS was originally called GRID (gay-related immune deficiency), and the illness was most commonly associated with gay white males. Although the name of the illness changed as it became apparent that minority sexual orientation was not a determinant of HIV transmission, AIDS continued to be viewed as a \u201cgay disease,\u201d with multiple layers of associated stigma.\nAlthough the stigma remains, the demographics of individuals living with HIV have shifted and increasingly include women and individuals of color. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), women account for approximately 20 percent of new HIV diagnoses, and among African American women, the estimated lifetime risk of an HIV diagnosis is 1 in 54 (compared with 1 in 941 for white women). African American and Latinx communities are disproportionately affected by HIV and AIDS. This is largely as a result of social determinants of health such as access to accurate information, preventive methods and health care, which are influenced by geographic location, cultural and social beliefs, socioeconomics, and stigma about sex and sexuality.\nAs the demographics related to HIV and AIDS have changed since the 1980s, so has the scientific knowledge, leading to key advancements in HIV prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Today, people with HIV can live long, healthy lives, provided that they adhere to treatment and monitor other aspects of their health.\nUnfortunately, much of what is commonly known about HIV and AIDS is outdated and inaccurate. For instance, recent surveys conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation indicated that some Americans still believe that HIV can be transmitted via mosquito bites, shared eating utensils and toilet seats. Many Americans also instinctively associate HIV with death, despite critical advancements in HIV care.\nHIV is not a death sentence. For individuals living with HIV, the key to their health is the strength of their immune systems as measured by their CD4 cell count and viral load. Ideally, the goal for people living with HIV is to have a high CD4 cell count and a low viral load. Fortunately, as a result of significant medical advances over the past few decades, individuals with HIV who are consistent in their adherence to ART can have a viral load that is undetectable. Studies have shown, and the CDC has affirmed, that individual with undetectable viral loads have almost zero chance of transmitting HIV to another person even if other protective measures are not present. Never before in the history of HIV and AIDS has there been such hope for HIV prevention generally and people living with HIV specifically.\nUnfortunately, not all individuals living with HIV access care and have an undetectable viral load. According to the CDC, approximately 1.1 million Americans are currently living with HIV, with 85 percent of these individuals aware of their HIV status. However, only 62 percent of Americans living with HIV are engaged in care, and only 49 percent of individuals living with HIV have an undetectable viral load. Multiple factors, including public health policies and social determinants of health, contribute to these statistics.\nUnaddressed mental health needs might also be at work. People living with HIV may experience adjustment difficulties, depression, anxiety and trauma \u2014 all of which can affect an individual\u2019s willingness and ability to seek medical care and remain adherent to treatment. In the past, HIV care focused primarily on the medical needs of people living with HIV. Today, there is growing awareness of the need to address the psychological and emotional aspects of HIV and AIDS because those factors may affect overall wellness.\nDespite the hope that science has given us with respect to HIV prevention and treatment and the increased awareness of the need for mental health support for people living with HIV, the language frequently used to describe HIV and AIDS continues to bolster the stigma associated with the illness.\nWhereas phrases such as \u201cclean bill of health\u201d are benign with respect to other illnesses, when used in connection with HIV and AIDS, they can have a much different connotation. For instance, use of the word \u201cclean\u201d to describe someone who does not have an HIV diagnosis can send the message that those who are HIV positive are somehow unclean and dirty, or even impure and sinful. But HIV is not about clean. Not having an HIV diagnosis is not a determinant of cleanliness or good moral character. Equally, having an HIV diagnosis has nothing to do with being dirty or having loose morals.\nSimilarly, referring to HIV \u201cinfections\u201d rather than HIV diagnoses or transmissions conjures thoughts of contamination, impurity and even death. Simply put, the dichotomy of \u201cclean\u201d versus \u201cinfected\u201d breeds stigma, negativity and hopelessness. These negative connotations make getting tested, disclosing one\u2019s HIV status, discussing methods of protection, and accessing and staying in care more difficult.\nWhen counselors inadvertently use stigmatizing language in reference to HIV and AIDS, they risk harming clients by perpetuating stigma and reinforcing barriers to both physical and mental health care. By reducing stigma through intentional language choices, counselors can better help individuals explore their options for entering care or identify potential barriers that may prevent them from staying in care in the future. Additionally, helping clients identify protective factors such as support systems, positive coping strategies and individual strengths can be beneficial to their growth and development.\nRegardless of HIV status, and in the name of balance, it is also important for counselors to inquire about aspects of their clients\u2019 sexual wellness when the topic arises. As previously mentioned, with clients who are living with HIV, counselors can discuss getting and staying in care. With clients who are not living with HIV, counselors can use psychoeducation to identify appropriate prevention methods, including PrEP, PEP and proper condom use.\nRecognizing the negative impact that stigmatizing language has on individuals is only the first step toward defusing the taboo of HIV and AIDS. The next step is to identify specific stigmatizing phrases and replace them with appropriate alternatives.\nOn a foundational level, counselors can make an easy change in their communication about HIV and AIDS simply by using person-first language. Saying \u201cperson living with HIV\u201d rather than \u201cAIDS patient\u201d does several things. First, it builds the therapeutic relationship and helps to externalize the diagnosis rather than fusing it with the client\u2019s identity. Second, person-first language decreases stigma by emphasizing the possibility of living, and living well, with HIV.\nThe use of \u201cperson living with HIV\u201d rather than \u201cAIDS patient\u201d also reflects a more accurate understanding of the illness and its progression. Often, HIV and AIDS are used interchangeably, despite an important medical distinction between the two. For counselors, it is essential to accurately differentiate between an HIV diagnosis and an AIDS diagnosis.\nAn HIV diagnosis follows a reactive test for the HIV virus; however, a diagnosis of AIDS is given by a physician only if an individual\u2019s CD4 cell count is below 200 or if the individual develops certain opportunistic infections. Given that effective treatment is available for individuals who have been diagnosed with HIV, it is likely that someone who is adherent to treatment will never receive an AIDS diagnosis. By ignoring the difference between these two diagnoses, a counselor might appear to be invalidating, deterministic and incompetent to a client who is living with HIV.\nAdditionally, the phrase \u201cfull-blown AIDS\u201d needs to be retired from our collective vocabulary. This phrase \u2014 which bolsters fear, reinforces HIV stigma and conjures thoughts of death \u2014 is wholly inaccurate and is no longer used among medical professionals. Along the same lines, stating that someone \u201cdied from AIDS\u201d is also unproductive and inaccurate. If HIV progresses to the point that an AIDS diagnosis is given, an individual is vulnerable to opportunistic infections, which could be fatal. Hence, an individual might die from an opportunistic infection or an AIDS-related illness but not from AIDS itself.\nAccuracy in our language when discussing this particular illness is critical. Errors in our word choices can communicate misinformation and harm clients, adding to the barriers that often prevent clients with HIV from seeking medical and mental health care services.\nUnderstandably, discussing HIV and AIDS can be awkward or uncomfortable for some individuals, including counselors. However, equipped with the right language, counselors can engage their clients in vital conversations about their sexual and mental health. By discussing HIV transmission rather than infection, we can destigmatize the illness and the conversation. We can disrupt the pervasive narrative that equates HIV and AIDS with death, uncleanliness and immorality. And most important, we can be bridges rather than barriers so that people living with HIV will feel encouraged and empowered to access care and live well.\nJ.

Parkin is a master\u2019s student in clinical mental health counseling at the University of Central Florida. Her research interests focus on intersectionality and marginalized communities.\nCounselors Audience, HIV AIDS, Professional Issues, Sexual Wellness\nHelping female clients reclaim sexual desire\nBy Alicia Mu\u00f1oz October 2, 2017\nIf you see women in your counseling practice, it will be hard to ignore the issue of female sexual desire in your work together, even if the focus of treatment is something that appears unrelated to sexuality. In fact, a woman\u2019s relationship with her own experience of sexual desire is often inextricably linked to her sense of identity, self-esteem, personal agency, energy levels, self-care habits and interpersonal relationships. Her desire issues and how she feels about them will weave their way, often implicitly, into your sessions.\nThe more that counselors can increase their awareness of the nuanced issues related to female sexual desire, the easier it will be to create a space in which clients can explore these issues safely and productively. Working with women more explicitly on understanding, experiencing and sustaining sexual desire can empower them to proactively regulate their moods, reduce stress levels and decrease symptoms of anxiety and depression. Furthermore, reconnecting with the motivation to feel sexual desire has the potential to help transition trauma survivors from \u201csurvival to revival\u201d (in the words of couples therapist Esther Perel) as they access the enlivening energy of their own erotic life force.\nIn the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), female sexual interest/arousal disorder is characterized by a lack of sexual interest or sexual arousal for at least six months. Whether a woman is upset or distressed by her lack of interest or arousal is a crucial criterion for the diagnosis. The disturbance can be moderate, mild or severe, lifelong or acquired, generalized or situational. Furthermore, according to the DSM-5, \u201cWomen in relationships of longer duration are more likely to report engaging in sex despite no obvious feelings of sexual desire at the outset of a sexual encounter compared with women in shorter-duration relationships.\u201d\nRosemary Basson, director of the University of British Columbia\u2019s sexual medicine program, has noted that other than in the early stages of a new relationship, women\u2019s arousal doesn\u2019t always follow the traditional model of spontaneous sexual desire. Rather, women\u2019s desire tends to be more responsive, with a deliberate choice to experience sexual stimulation required before an actual experience of arousal.\nEstimates on how many women suffer from female sexual interest/arousal disorder vary widely, in part because there is so much complexity, variability and subjectivity to how sexual desire issues and arousal problems are measured and experienced. According to an article by Sharon J. Parish and Steven R. Hahn in the April 2016 issue of Sexual Medicine Reviews, issues with sexual desire or arousal are present in 8.9 percent of women ages 18 to 44, 12.3 percent of women ages 45 to 64 and 7.4 percent of women 65 and older. These percentages translate into a significant portion of the female population. It is hard not to wonder what sociocultural circumstances are contributing to making problems with desire so pervasive and systemic for women.\nIn Standard E.5.c. of the 2014 ACA Code of Ethics, counselors are reminded to \u201crecognize historical and social prejudices in the misdiagnosis and pathologizing of certain individuals and groups and strive to become aware of and address such biases in themselves or others.\u201d This ethical consideration comes into play when counselors treat women with desire issues.\nWith the work of Helen Singer Kaplan\u2019s triphasic sexual response cycle and an ever-expanding body of nuanced research on women\u2019s sexuality, studies have come a long way from the male-centric, Freudian view of women\u2019s sexual and psychological functioning and even from Masters and Johnson\u2019s linear model of spontaneous sexual response. Researchers today strive to be more objective and aware of the physiological and psychological reality of women.\nEven so, systemic prejudices related to gender and gender identity continue to saturate every area of girls\u2019 and women\u2019s lives, creating unique challenges in female clients in the areas of desire and sex. Fostering the safety and trust necessary to explore your clients\u2019 desire issues can move issues of female sexuality and desire from an implicit undercurrent in your work to an explicit focus of therapy. This can help clients separate the wheat of their erotic potential from the chaff of limiting, destructive or shame-based gender and sexual conditioning.\nTake Louisa, a 30-year-old client who has been married for two years. (Note: Louisa isn\u2019t an actual client; however, her situation illustrates common sexual desire issues experienced by clients who seek counseling.) Although Louisa initially seeks treatment for depression and anxiety, a few sessions into treatment she begins referring in passing to life stressors that are \u201cTMI\u201d (too much information). Following these TMI comments, Louisa deflects the conversation to other topics with a shrug and a laugh.\nCounselors can be attuned to these \u201cthrowaway\u201d comments and to dismissive humor, gently inviting clients to elaborate by expressing interest in the information the client is editing out. When the counselor gently points out Louisa\u2019s \u201cTMI\u201d reference and explores what she thinks might be too much information for the therapist, the issue of Louisa\u2019s sex life begins to surface. Counselors may need to reassure clients who experience shame around sexual desire and sexuality that it can be of great benefit to focus on and explore heretofore off-limit topics and the memories, beliefs, thoughts and feelings connected to those topics.\nThe following interventions may provide springboards for exploring desire issues in counseling sessions with female clients.\n1) Provide psychoeducation on the connection between relaxation and sexual arousal, and work with your client to identify ways she can relax. Maureen Ryan, a sexual health coach in Amherst, New York, says, \u201cThe first step to a great sexual experience is to relax. Pleasurable touch helps facilitate this process. The body becomes aroused, and then the desire follows. For most women, sexual intimacy precedes desire.\u201d\nExplore the thoughts, fears and behavioral patterns that inhibit relaxation. Work on helping your client identify how she might create an external environment that would facilitate her transition into a sexually receptive or erotically engaged state. This might include activities that allow her to feel present or \u201cin the flow\u201d or connect more with pleasurable sensory input (tastes, sounds, smells, visual stimuli, touch).\n2) Invite your client to create a body map. Sex therapist Aline Zoldbrod suggests using this technique with couples to facilitate a dialogue about current preferences. However, it can also be used one-on-one with female clients who may struggle with shame issues related to their bodies and their experiences of sexual desire.\nYour client draws a body shape, back and front, and then uses red, yellow and green crayons to color the shapes in. Green means \u201cI like to be touched here always,\u201d yellow means \u201cI like to be touched here sometimes,\u201d and red means \u201cI never like to be touched here.\u201d This map can serve as one starting point for a deeper exploration of a client\u2019s relationship to her body and her history with touch.\n3) Introduce the \u201cprop\u201d of a velvet vulva into your arsenal of psychoeducational tools and use it to help clients understand the anatomy of the vulva, the clitoris and what movements and sensations typically stimulate arousal. This prop can also be used to instruct women on arousal as counselors model a clear, sex-positive language for expressing needs and preferences to a partner.\n4) Introduce your client to the concept of \u201csexual blueprints.\u201d You may want to provide a client with a handout summarizing sexologist Jaiya\u2019s five erotic blueprints: energetic, sensual, sexual, kinky and shapeshifter. Reading about and discussing these blueprints can reduce shame, normalize a client\u2019s experience of her own sexual predilections and help her consider new possibilities. Jaiya\u2019s website (missjaiya.com) has a quiz to help women and men identify their blueprints.\n5) Explore the meaning of pleasure for your client. What turns her on? What charges her up and connects her to her own sense of flow or aliveness? A counselor can coach a client to say, \u201cI feed my own desire when \u2026\u201d and then complete the sentence with different activities, thoughts and behaviors that enliven her. Encourage your client to begin developing a running list of whatever it is she can proactively do to power herself up, delight herself and revitalize herself.\nAlso be sure to have an extensive list of your own desire-feeding activities. This will help you menu ideas for your clients.\n6) Help clients develop awareness about the sex-negative and body-negative influences that have shaped how they see and experience themselves and their bodies. Encourage them to limit the sex- and body-negative influences in their lives. This may mean avoiding certain magazines, being mindful about television shows and choosing not to watch certain movies or videos. It may mean setting clearer boundaries with select people in their lives.\nAlso help clients explore ways that they can take in more sex- and body-positive messages, either through reading different magazines, limiting their exposure to narrow standards of beauty, increasing their vigilance of the kinds of advertising or body imagery they expose themselves to, or regularly and intentionally appreciating their own bodies through pleasurable body rituals and experiences.\nA shift in attitude\nOver time, Louisa begins to understand that the lack of sex in her marriage underlies her anxiety and depressive symptoms. She fears it means that she and her husband are on their way to divorce and that it\u2019s \u201call her fault.\u201d Here, the counselor helps Louisa increase her awareness of this critical inner voice and develop greater self-compassion.\nLouisa\u2019s husband has become more vocal about their sexual problems and grown increasingly more irritable and withdrawn in their day-to-day life. As a result, Louisa is no longer able to continue pretending the problem is just situational, temporary or unimportant.\nIn therapy, she examines her sexual misconceptions and beliefs and the influence of her family\u2019s cultural and gender-based expectations of her. To her surprise, she realizes she has limited awareness of her actual bodily sensations. She often \u201clives in her head\u201d and ignores the signals her body sends her. As a result, she has never really tuned in to what she feels leading up a to sexual encounter. Her low sexual desire is just the tip of an iceberg of denial related to sensations and emotions.\nPart of Louisa\u2019s work in therapy becomes learning how to \u201clisten\u201d to her body. She practices doing this in session and also sets aside time outside of sessions to sit quietly and observe her own sensory experience.\nIn the past, when Louisa lost her motivation to have sex with one of her boyfriends and couldn\u2019t recreate the feeling of strong, active arousal with him, she would interpret it as \u201cfalling out of love\u201d or the boyfriend \u201cnot being right for her.\u201d It wasn\u2019t until Louisa married her husband that she was faced with the stark truth of her own sexual experience: She had a hard time experiencing spontaneous, robust arousal once the novelty of a relationship wore off. Mostly, later in a relationship, she simply responded to her partner\u2019s desire for her.\nThis insight signaled a shift in Louisa\u2019s attitude toward sex and herself. She started to mourn her lack of erotic engagement with her past partners and current husband and to commit to cultivating a relationship with her own erotic experience. She began recognizing her own inhibitions, her lack of erotic accountability and the expectation she had always carried that her partner should know what pleased her without her assistance, guidance or willingness to explore the ways that their needs and desires met or diverged.\nBecause Louisa loved her partner and wanted to make their marriage work, she committed to learning how to experience her own desire and arousal more regularly. Her motivation to feel desire for her own pleasure and sense of wholeness shifted her approach to the sexual disconnection in her marriage from that of a burdensome problem to an adventure.\nWhen it comes to working effectively with female sexuality and desire, remaining neutral about larger cultural biases can stall your work as a counselor. In a culture saturated with narrow and distorted models and templates of beauty, it is nearly impossible for human beings who emerge from their mothers as female babies to grow up free of misconceptions about their core selves, their bodies, their sensuality and their eroticism.\nSome women may manage to stay intuitively connected to their erotic core throughout childhood and adolescence despite the social, relational and societal risks involved, perhaps even making it into adulthood relishing the full range of their sexual experiences on their own terms. A great number of women, however, wouldn\u2019t have survived physically, much less psychically, without shutting off their sexual circuit boards.\nUsually, this shutdown isn\u2019t a conscious choice. It is something that girls learn to do within the context of their relationships as a way of maintaining caregivers\u2019 and others\u2019 love and approval. Even for girls growing up in progressive, supportive families, fitting in with peer groups or feeling socially rooted can sometimes cost them some important piece of connection to their core sexual selves. Girls may grow up lacking erotically vibrant, powerful female role models. Sometimes their families and circumstances don\u2019t allow them the luxury of maintaining a strong, healthy, intact relationship with their bodies.\nWhen girls suppress aspects of their deepest erotic impulses and experiences, layers of judgment and shame encase not only what and how they feel, but also who they are. Like a seed trapped in amber, a woman\u2019s erotic potential can remain untapped even as she develops and grows in other areas. It waits for the right conditions to emerge.\nCounselors can provide those conditions in therapy. Here are some key ways that counselors can help women reclaim their erotic selves.\n1) Take continuing education courses on sexuality.\n2) Read progressive, inclusive books on women\u2019s sexuality and women\u2019s sexual empowerment, such as Getting the Sex You Want by Tammy Nelson, She Comes First by Ian Kerner, Mating in Captivity by Esther Perel, Woman on Fire by Amy Jo Goddard, Pussy: A Reclamation by Regena Thomashauer, Come as You Are by Emily Nagoski and Women\u2019s Anatomy of Arousal by Sheri Winston.\n3) Familiarize yourself with the facts regarding the unique challenges that women continue to face today locally, nationally and globally, particularly as they relate to physical safety, fiscal equality, political representation and reproductive issues and rights.\n4) Learn to talk about all of the parts of women\u2019s bodies with ease. Practice with your children, spouses, colleagues and friends. Learn the exact locations of women\u2019s body parts, study how they interact and learn to identify a woman\u2019s body parts by their correct names (e.g., distinguishing between a woman\u2019s visible genitals \u2014 her vulva \u2014 and the internal, muscular tube that leads from her vaginal opening to her cervix \u2014 her vagina). Learn to discuss sex, sexuality and sexual acts correctly and comfortably.\n5) When you pick up on a client\u2019s reactivity, defensiveness, shame or self-consciousness related to a sexual topic, bring warmth and compassion to the moment through attuned interventions. For example: \u201cI noticed that you covered your eyes just now as you mentioned having sex with your boyfriend. Can we be curious about what just came up for you?\u201d\nIt is important to keep in mind that low desire and lack of sexual interest are issues that many women won\u2019t openly admit to, even when these experiences are their daily reality. There is a lot at stake. Just as a man\u2019s sexual identity and sense of competence can get tied up with his ability to pleasure his partner to orgasm or to maintain an erection, a woman\u2019s sense of sexual self-worth can be intricately connected with her ability to both stimulate and quench her partner\u2019s sexual desire.\nWhen the impetus or the drive to engage in sex with her partner or spouse wanes, a woman\u2019s sense of sexual self-confidence can waver. It can feel as if she is failing at an essential aspect of her being: loving and being loved sexually. It can also inspire terror. Will she lose connection to this person she depends on and loves? How will this affect her family relationships? Is this a prelude to something worse? What changes lie around the corner as a result of her inability to match her partner\u2019s sexual needs with her own authentic responses and initiatives?\nCounselors are in a privileged and important position with their female clients at this particular historical juncture. Women are feeling pulled to take up leadership positions and exert influence in spheres of power previously dominated by men, from political offices to corporate headquarters to influencing the ecological trajectory of the planet. To experience the fullness of their emotional range, the force of their uniquely feminine values, priorities and principles, and the vitality of their full aliveness, many women need help developing a healthier relationship with their erotic selves. Because many women have adapted and suppressed aspects of themselves to function in a world that prioritizes the more traditionally masculine values of strength, dominance, competition and self-protection, they need to find ways to access the more traditionally feminine priorities of sustainability, vulnerability, connection and empathy to feel truly like themselves again.\nCounselors can safely, warmly and sincerely support the exploration of women\u2019s low sexual desire or inhibited arousal by first prioritizing a woman\u2019s desire as an essential energy source in her life. They can help their female clients navigate the unique, nuanced challenges of low desire and the ways it manifests in a woman\u2019s relationship to her own self, her body and those she loves. Once this issue is prioritized in treatment, it can be made explicit and explored. From there, it becomes easier to disentangle the negative beliefs that women harbor about their bodies and themselves from their inalienable, noncontingent worth as women.\nBecause many women have come to experience their own desire as beyond their control, they may fear that they are the problem \u2014 outliers on the graph of normative human sexual desire doomed to disappoint and frustrate the people they love and need most. Helping women take control of their own experience of sexual desire through explicit counseling interventions has the potential to shift clients\u2019 views of what\u2019s possible for them erotically and, in so doing, what\u2019s possible for them as vibrant, entitled human beings with desires that matter. This shift is seismic and can transform all aspects of women\u2019s lives.\nAlicia Mu\u00f1oz is a licensed marriage counselor and desire expert in private practice in Falls Church, Virginia.

The project will focus on Christopher Hampson\u2019s Hansel & Gretel and Matthew Bourne\u2019s Highland Fling and will offer a gentle introduction to dance focusing on themes from the production to hard-to-reach, vulnerable young people, aged between 11 and 18 years old.\nThe Close was first launched in 2012, with the aim of empowering participants by welcoming their own creative ideas. The Close is an innovative way of inspiring marginalised and at-risk young people, positively affecting their lives by building confidence and directly contributing to their ability to co-operate with each other through the arts.\nThe Close is supported by Education Partner Cairn Energy and the Gemmell Bequest Fund.\nThe Anserinae Project\nThis professional choreographic mentorship programme will allow 5 Scottish artists the opportunity to develop their practice with internationally acclaimed artist, choreographer and mentor Kerry Nicholls.

What really grabbed you about the role?\nWell, I did read the book, and it\u2019s an awesome book. Just so engaging in terms of Lawrence\u2019s investigative skills, which makes him a king. So it was like a nice sort of ignition of my curiosity about something that I knew very little about in terms of the whole history.\nAs a New Yorker I kind of knew the experiential events that happened on 9/11, but I didn\u2019t know the history, or I knew very little. Just by virtue of the strength of his reporting, that in itself was fascinating as a teaching lesson, as a window into history that I had no idea about, or that I was woefully ignorant about. That right away made me quite curious and interested, and that\u2019s always a great thing as an actor, to be fully engaged by the material. It\u2019s such a huge landscape of world history, at least our history and also history in parts of the other world, obviously, that I was hungry for.\nYou met three of the four men your character was based upon. Did you try to incorporate pieces from each man? What about the physicality of Chesney? Did you base that on any one of them?\nThere\u2019s obviously very clear information that I can get from each of those three folks. I couldn\u2019t speak to this one person, although I had a kind of image to work with there, which helped quite a bit with the exterior of who Bob Chesney was. It was based mostly on one the description that Lawrence had given in terms of information from the book. On the exterior\u2026the outside visual, what we see on the surface, who this guy looks like, was based on the gentleman I was not [able to meet]. He didn\u2019t want to talk to anybody about it.\nSo I had that. I knew what the guy looked like, and that helps insofar as just having a physical reference. I can\u2019t really tell you what the things are that go on inside of my\u2026the connection between my mind and my body, of physically how that dynamic works. I\u2019m not really sure. But it does inform me. And with that information, it sort of stimulates me in a way to make me feel comfortable that I have a handle on who this individual is. Then I had these three other gentlemen that I did speak with. They gave me very clear information, like facts that I had and to then act out when I felt I needed to.\nAlso, there were ways in which those three gentlemen communicated to me. What were their cadences? What was their energy like? And so I would kind of pick and choose things from them that I felt would be appropriate to blend with this exterior that I already knew of this gentleman. Then after I integrate that and make it work with the words in the way this guy operated, his dialogue with other people around him, how he interacted with them.\nThere was more of a feel from the three gentlemen I did speak with, and just knowing what their experiences were. So I always had that to play around with. It\u2019s like, \u201cWell, I knew that this guy, he was bombed in Nairobi.\u201d The explosion at the embassy. I knew how this gentleman responded because not only did he write about it, and share with me his writings about it, but he also talked to me about it, and what he was feeling emotionally.\nThen there was the gentleman I spoke with that I was playing in the interrogation scene, who was sitting in that room. He explained to me what it was like in that room and how he communicated with the gentlemen across the table. I also was sitting across the table from that guy myself. There were just little things that I would always have to access. And at this point I\u2019d feel like, \u201cWell, that\u2019s not going to be right, because that\u2019s not going to be consistent with the guy that we\u2019re all seeing, that everybody is seeing, the audience is seeing.\u201d I wanted to make sure that I could integrate with that guy and not be too contradictory.\nWhat was it like on a personal level, hearing about the authentic, inside experience of that interrogation? It made for an incredible scene.\nIt\u2019s interesting because one, this gentleman is such a soft-spoken, easy guy, in terms of how he communicates, that I could see that he was being honest. It wasn\u2019t inconsistent to what I heard from other people who spend their lives doing that. In that they say that that\u2019s how an agent talks to you, to establish some sort of trust and rapport, as opposed to pushing them into a place of defense, you know?\nI watched this movie last night called Le Petit Soldat, Jean-Luc Godard\u2019s film. The guy gets tortured. Towards the end of the movie he gets captured. He resists, and it all makes sense to me as to why it\u2019s far more effective to try to work with somebody through the establishment of trust\u2014a kind of level playing field. It just makes sense to me, but there was a certain part of me of course that was like, \u201cGosh, the ability to really do that in time, in real life, in that real situation is extraordinary to me.\u201d Trying to, when the stakes are that high, get information. That\u2019s what really blew me away. The ability to be able to do that.\nThe stakes must also have felt high for you, telling such an important story.\nOf course, there are people that are going to say, \u201cWell, this is left out, or this was told a different way.\u201d I trusted the way that it was being told. There was a real importance, especially, that that interrogation scene was presented in a way that I had known it was presented.\nI had to play it as accurately as possible, not in a hyperbolic way.\nThe tension between Chesney and Jeff Daniels\u2019 character John O\u2019Neill is so perfectly pitched. How did you guys get to that point? What work did you do beforehand?\nWe didn\u2019t have to do a lot. I\u2019m such a huge fan of Jeff, and he\u2019s very easy to get on with, to me. We had a pretty instant rapport. We didn\u2019t really need to talk a lot, [in] terms of what this relationship was about. We both, I think, just instinctively knew it was going to be a fun relationship to play with and how to build that. The writing is very good in terms of lifting that relationship, and the tension between those two guys jumps off the page. That sort of thing is a great shape as an actor to play, especially with a partner like Jeff, where it\u2019s just the back and forth and the joy in that that I think we both got off on a lot. We also got along very well off-camera. We had, generally, a pretty excellent time.\nObviously, you look for a great script, but what kind of characters really speak to you?\nI think I have that one figured out and then it all changes. It\u2019s hard because I don\u2019t have criteria in which I\u2019m going to work. I don\u2019t want to be too rigid in terms of limiting myself, because I\u2019m an actor, so I want to be open to the challenges, especially things that I may be [thinking], \u201cOh no I don\u2019t do that.\u201d Obviously, I have to believe in the story.\nBut back to The Looming Tower\u2014it\u2019s such an important story to tell that it\u2019s really a no-brainer. I had great faith in the people that were making it, that it was to be told in a really accurate way. In a way in which I would feel comfortable being a part of. It was a privilege to be a part of.",

        "raw_content": "Jimmy \"Superfly\" Snuka Dies At Age 73, Weeks After Murder Case Dismissed\nFiled to: Jimmy SnukaFiled to: Jimmy Snuka\nNancy Argentino\nPhoto: Joe Stevens/MediaPunch via the Associated Press\nJimmy \u201cSuperfly\u201d Snuka, the legendary wrestler more recently charged with the 1983 death of his girlfriend, has died. He was 73. The case against Snuka was dismissed earlier this month after a judge ruled him incompetent to stand trial. His death was announced by Dwayne \u201cThe Rock\u201d Johnson.\nOn May 10, 1983, Snuka was in Allentown, Pa, with Nancy Argentino to film an event for WWF. Snuka said he came back from a taping and found Argentino \u201cgasping for air and oozing yellow fluid from her mouth and nose.\u201d Snuka said Argentino had slipped on the side of the highway and hit her head, but Snuka\u2019s own accounts of what happened that night varied depending on who he was talking to, and an autopsy report ruled her death a homicide. No charges were brought against Snuka\u2014fueling decades of speculation, especially about what Vince McMahon knew\u2014until a Morning Call report in 2013 published details from the autopsy report and police reports.\nJimmy &apos;Superfly&apos; Snuka and the mysterious death of Nancy Argentino\nThirty years ago, Nancy Argentino was taken from wrestling superstar &apos;Superfly&apos;\u2026\nOn Oct. 17, 1983, Snuka climbed to the top of the cage in Madison Square Garden and threw himself onto Don Muraco. It was one of the signature moments of his career, five months after Argentino\u2019s death. The crowd cheered.\nSnuka would go on to become a fixture of pro wresting although, as David Shoemaker points out in the Ringer, not on his own terms.\nHe had given his body and blood to win the fans\u2019 admiration, but the WWF\u2019s heyday cost him his dignity, positing him as a (literal) cartoon islander\u200a\u2014a reversion to his original trope, this time for the entertainment of kids around the world.\nThe Morning Call spoke with Argentino\u2019s two sisters, who said they got no closure from his death. Lorraine Salome told the paper they might have gotten justice if Snuka had been charged immediately but \u201cthere were so many blockades.\u201d\nMurder Case Against Jimmy \"Superfly\" Snuka Dismissed\nJimmy \"Superfly\" Snuka Deemed Not Competent To Stand Trial In Girlfriend&apos;s Death\n32 Years Later, Jimmy \"Superfly\" Snuka Charged With Girlfriend&apos;s Death",

The Almshouses were established by the Gascoigne family of Lotherton Hall in 1846 to provide accommodation for farm workers and poor people of the area. The original Almshouses were sold to the City Council in 1976 and from the proceeds of sale the Trustees purchased a piece of land from Mercantile Insurance (who at that time owned the Parlington Estate) and on this land built Parlington House, which contained 28 flats. These comprised 14 double and 14 single flats, and the project was officially opened by Lady Sands, a descendant of the Gascoigne family.

        "raw_content": "Who\u2019s Next: Politics \u2014 16 rising stars in the Denver area\nWe asked you to identify the rising political stars of the Denver area, and you delivered.\nAfter studying nominations from Denverite readers and sources, we\u2019re thrilled to announce the first-ever class of Who\u2019s Next: Politics, presented by Sewald Hanfling Public Affairs \u2014 and you can meet them at an event where we\u2019ll recognize them on June 7 at the ART Hotel. Drinks, mingling and, yes, probably a little talk of politics.\nThe criteria for the list were simple: We were looking for people on their way up in politics, whether that\u2019s in office, working on campaigns, working in activism, fundraising, lobbying \u2014 whatever. As long as they weren\u2019t currently declared in a contested race, we\u2019d consider them.\nHere\u2019s the impressive roster of local politicos you\u2019ve helped us build.\nCristina Aguilar. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nCristina Aguilar, 41, formally left her role as executive director of the Colorado Organization for Latina Opportunity and Reproductive Rights (COLOR) having seen it double in staff size and more than double in budget over her five and a half years.\nUnder her leadership, COLOR ran a 2014 campaign against one of Colorado\u2019s perennial personhood ballot measures, specifically targeting low-propensity latinx voters in several Colorado counties, and in the end, she says, \u201ceven though the margin of defeat narrowed, we saw the highest number of latinx voters voting against personhood.\u201d\nAguilar also co-founded the people of color caucus at One Colorado. She places a strong emphasis on visibility for LGBT people of color, on what she calls \u201cabortion destigmatization work,\u201d and on building youth leadership, including through programs like Latinas Increasing Political Strength, a Denver-area mentorship program for girls and young women ages 16-21.\nAnd what would a sabbatical be without some work? Aguilar is currently advising at least one local campaign and may well take on more such work as the election nears. Of the future, she says, \u201cI\u2019ve always had a dream of serving in office.\u201d\nMaytham Alshadood. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nMaytham Alshadood, 32, worked alongside U.S. troops as a combat interpreter in Iraq and came to Colorado in 2008 with a Special Immigrant Visa. He\u2019s now a registered nurse and deeply engaged in local politics \u2014 and committed to making it easier for those who come after him to do all of that.\nHis Drive Project Colorado has what he calls a three-pronged approach, focusing on civic engagement, voter registration and public policy. The group was instrumental in getting in-state tuition passed for refugees and special immigrants who come to Colorado the way he did. On civic engagement, he says, \u201cwe\u2019re not just talking about the stuff that you get taught in the citizenship class. I\u2019ve been through that stuff and it\u2019s mostly trivial.\u201d\nHe wants to teach people to get involved, and a partnership with Drive Project, Warm Cookies of the Revolution and Project Worthmore is developing activities to build better citizenship education into existing ESL classes \u2014 instead of learning \u201cJane went to the market,\u201d he says, think \u201cJane went to city hall.\u201d\nThat leaves voter registration. When will that push start? Naturally, on World Refugee Day, he hopes. That\u2019s June 20.\nJennifer Benson (right) and Jordan Henry. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nJennifer Benson and Jordan Henry were fast friends when they met on their first day of law school at the University of Colorado Boulder. They were both dancers. They were a bit older than their classmates.\nAnd, after the 2016 election, they were both fired up. Within days, they had arranged a meeting with Gail Schoettler, former lieutenant governor. \u201cWe met with Gail to discuss how to run for office. What do we need to do?\u201d said Benson, 34.\nBut they quickly refocused their ambitions. Instead of running for office, they would try to change how campaigns work.\n\u201cWe learned that, nationally, only 29 percent of state legislators are women. And we learned that only 24 percent of (political) contributions are made by women,\u201d said Henry, 30.\nOne year later, they launched InvestHER, a group that aims to re-engage young voters with pro-choice politicians. Rather than throwing pricey fundraising dinners, they invite candidates and constituents to casual happy hours.\nSo far, they\u2019ve thrown 10 events and raised more than $10,000 in small donations for candidates from Cary Kennedy to Jena Griswold. Both are about to begin their legal careers, and they hope to build on their advocacy for women.\nJordan Bresson. Who's Next: Politics. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nAt 28, Jordan Bresson is running Saira Rao\u2019s campaign for Congress in Colorado\u2019s 1st congressional district. It\u2019s her first job in politics, but not her first in public service.\n\u201cI decided early on in life, no matter what I\u2019m doing, I want to be making a difference and if at the moment I feel like I\u2019m not being influential or making a meaningful, positive change in this world, then I need to redirect my path,\u201d she said.\nBresson started off in advocacy and nonprofits, working as a field organizer for the League of Conservation voters and a climate change organizer for Conversation Colorado. Doing that work, she realized that she was happiest during campaign season, when the groups were trying to help candidates get elected. And when the 2016 election left her frustrated, she had a realization:\n\u201cI came to the conclusion that when we get better people in office, the relationship between the constituents and the elected official is much more friendly,\u201d she said. \u201cThen you can get great legislation passed. That was a more concrete way of making change.\n\u201cFor me it\u2019s always been founded in helping people and making a positive change.\u201d\nBarry Burch Jr. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nSince Barry Burch, 31, took up his post in the mayor\u2019s office as the director of boards and commissions in 2016, he\u2019s led the modernization of an archaic filing system and oversaw an appointment process that created what he describes as \u201cpretty incredible\u201d racial, ethnic and gender diversity. But he won\u2019t take all the credit.\n\u201cI hate to toot my own horn with that. It\u2019s the community members who want to give their own time,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m just helping the mayor make these appointments.\u201d\nIn fact, his work includes managing more than 1,000 appointments and reappointments across 130 boards and commissions.\nBefore landing where he is now, Burch took on a variety of roles that include special aide to the mayor, fellow in the office of Council President Albus Brooks, field organizer for Organizing for America and fourth-grade teacher. He\u2019s also served as president of the Denver African American Commission and commissioner of the Commission for People with Disabilities.\nHe says he started down this path in college. He received his bachelor\u2019s degree in political science from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, where he was Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity president, student body vice-president and student body president.\nMatt Connelly. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nMatt Connelly, who\u2019s about to turn 32, has worked on the campaigns of some of the best-known politicians in the country.\n\u201cI started my career out with John McCain\u2019s war room in 2007, when I was attending college in Washington, D.C.,\u201d said Connelly, who completed undergrad at the Catholic University of America.\nAnd, mere days after graduation, he was driving cross-country to work as California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger\u2019s newsroom manager, tracking all of the biggest issues in the state.\nLater, he worked for the campaign of presidential candidate Jon Huntsman, and then as the southeast regional press secretary for the Republican National Committee \u2014 and then he went on a backpacking trip in the Rockies.\nIn 2014, he moved here to work as communications director for the state Senate Republicans.\n\u201cI\u2019m very talented at fitting all of my belongings into the back of my car,\u201d he said. After recent stints working as press secretary for Sen. Cory Gardner in 2014, for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and for former state Rep. Jon Keyser, Connelly has settled in with Clear Creek Strategies, where he\u2019s consulting with high-profile candidates like Walker Stapleton and working on the national Restoration PAC.\n\u201cI would say that I\u2019m a common-sense Republican who is dedicated to getting things done to make the country a better place,\u201d he said.\nIt\u2019s been more than a decade since Steve Fenberg, now 34, founded New Era Colorado with his Who\u2019s Next: Politics peer Leslie Herod and fellow recent University of Colorado Boulder graduates Lisa Kaufmann and Joe Neguse (currently running for U.S. Congress).\nSince then, New Era has trained hundreds of young leaders, registered more than 100,000 voters, passed election modernization bills and led a grassroots campaign to create a local electric utility that invests in clean energy.\nHe\u2019s served on the boards of directors for Boulder Housing Working Group and the City of Boulder Capital Improvement Taskforce, and now serves as the state senator for Colorado\u2019s State Senate District 18 \u2014 an office he won handily in the 2016 election.\nIn the 2018 session, he helped get bipartisan redistricting unanimously passed and sent to the 2018 ballot for voter approval, among other things. Now that the session is over, he\u2019s focused on raising money and working on trying to get the State Senate majority back for Democrats.\n\u201cIt\u2019s kind of just in my blood,\u201d Fenberg said. \u201cIt all started with my mom. I knocked on my first door for a political candidate when I was 7 years old. It\u2019s who I am because it\u2019s who my mom is and who she brought me up to be. What I believe is right and wrong has been core to who I am for a long time.\u201d\nJuan Gallegos. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nJuan Gallegos, 29, discovered his political ambitions soon after moving from Mexico to Nebraska.\n\u201cWhen I first moved to the US, it was 2001, and it was my first year in middle school,\u201d he said.\nHe didn\u2019t speak much English, but he understood the language well enough to make a darn good pun: \u201cI\u2019m Juan in a million.\u201d And so he ran for student body president, losing by just a few votes.\nToday, Gallegos is the managing director of the CIRC Action fund, a sister organization of the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, where he works to advance immigrant rights. He also has worked as CIRC\u2019s director of civic engagement.\nAlong with his colleagues, he\u2019s a frequent sight at the Colorado State Capitol and in communities across Colorado. As a DACA recipient, he sees his job as a way to rally others to political action.\n\u201cEver since I was a little kid, (politics) felt like a great way for people to get their ideas heard,\u201d said Gallegos. \u201cOne of my biggest hopes and dreams is to one day become a U.S. citizen and be able to vote, and then run for office.\u201d\nDanielle Glover. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nAt age 32, Danielle Glover has at least three jobs.\nShe\u2019s a \u201cborn leader\u201d and she \u201csingle-handedly\u201d relaunched the Colorado Young Democrats, as one of her nominators said \u2014 although she insists that she worked with others to pull that off \u2014 and she\u2019s worked on political campaigns at all levels of government.\nToday, she\u2019s executive vice president for Young Democrats of America, a volunteer position. She also works as legal and government affairs manager for the Association of periOperative Registered Nurses, and she volunteers as vice-chair of the board of NARAL Pro-Choice Colorado.\nWhat\u2019s the unifying theme of all this work?\n\u201cIt\u2019s the ability to change policy, and everybody is engaged \u2014 the civic engagement piece, the voting, the getting people out to tell their stories,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s idealistic, sometimes, but people can really make a change in policy, whether that\u2019s through voting, going to your city council meetings or testifying at the capitol.\u201d\nGlover holds a bachelor\u2019s in political science and a master\u2019s in public administration from the University of Colorado Denver, and her interests extend across public policy. \u201cI happen to be one of those nerds that finds zoning codes and transportation policy fascinating,\u201d she said.\nGlover was raised in Brighton and lives today in Highland. She\u2019s a snowboarder, a runner, a mountaineer \u2014 and she has a dog named Rambo.\nLeslie Herod. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nWhen Leslie Herod graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder, she founded New Era Colorado with Who\u2019s Next: Politics peer Steve Fenberg and fellow recent graduates Lisa Kaufmann and Joe Neguse, and she walked into the Capitol with a resume and said she was ready to work.\nNow 35, Herod has since held nearly every position within the Capitol and been elected to the State House of Representatives for District 8. And in securing that office, she became the first openly LGBT African American to be elected in Colorado \u2014 a fact that led her to create the Herod Leadership Fund.\n\u201cA passion of mine is ensuring that I\u2019m not the only one and that we have diverse representation throughout our elected offices,\u201d she said. \u201cSo I\u2019m working with a lot of new candidates who are running.\u201d\nIn her first year in office, Herod turned her focus to mental health issues and equity in schools and the justice system. Her office is running a ballot initiative called Caring 4 Denver that would create a 25-cent on $100 sales tax to provide community based mental health and substance abuse treatment. She also spends time working to bridge the divide between Denver and rural Colorado.\n\u201cI think what drives me is the work. I am very committed to affecting positive change in Colorado,\u201d she said. \u201c\u2026 I try to make sure that I\u2019m putting the work and the people first at all times.\u201d\nOwen Loftus. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nOwen Loftus, 35, has always known that politics would be his career. \u201cEven when I was 18,\u201d he said. \u201cTo clarify, I was a complete nerd.\u201d\nHe was raised in a family of Democrats and \u201cborderline socialists\u201d in Pueblo, but his resume includes work for some of the most prominent Republicans in Colorado. Loftus, a graduate of Colorado State University \u2013 Pueblo, has worked as communications director for U.S. representatives Ken Buck and Mike Coffman.\nHis work with Coffman in the 2012 campaign is particularly emblematic of his style, he said. Redistricting had made the congressman\u2019s district \u201cvery, very purple.\u201d Coffman won.\n\u201cEspecially in a state like Colorado, you need bridge-builders,\u201d he said. \u201cI have my conservative principles and values, but you need to work with everyone.\u201d\nToday, Loftus runs Loftus Public Relations and works for the nonprofit Gill Foundation, where he works to educate conservative people about the importance of LGBTQ equality. A resident of the Highland neighborhood, he hopes to continue his work as \u201csomeone who convenes people,\u201d but he doesn\u2019t see an election run in his future.\n\u201cI think I\u2019m too moderate,\u201d he said.\nAmber McReynolds. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nAmber McReynolds, 39, used to watch her father at work in the courts of Illinois. He served as a public defender, a criminal defense lawyer and later a judge.\n\u201cFrom a very young age, I was frustrated with how government works,\u201d she said. \u201cI have always looked at things in a different way, and looked at what they could be instead of what they are.\u201d\nThat ambition later would take her to England, where she completed a master\u2019s in comparative politics at the London School of Economics and worked for Harriet Harman, an MP and the first woman to serve as solicitor general in the UK.\nIn 2005, McReynolds joined the Denver Elections Division. \u201cI was actually asked by the person who would eventually be my boss, \u2018Aren\u2019t you a little young to do this job?\u2019\u201d she recalled. \u201cThat told me a lot about the culture that I was about to enter.\u201d\nBy 2011, she was running the place, and she\u2019s since gained national recognition. She helped to write the 2013 law that reformed voter registration and expanded mail-in voting across Colorado. In 2015, she led the adoption of new voting systems in Denver that were later adopted statewide.\nWhat\u2019s next? McReynolds, who is unaffiliated, will consider a run for elected office.\nBrittany Morris Saunders. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nBrittany Morris-Saunders, 38 and a Denver native, says she\u2019s been working in Denver politics since the mid-\u201990s.\n\u201cI\u2019m that girl who knew as a very small child that I wanted to be in politics,\u201d she said. \u201cI knew exactly what I wanted to do.\u201d\nAs a teenager, she got to work on city-changing projects like getting the Broncos a new stadium and beginning redevelopment in Stapleton. From there, she went on to become a political consultant, director of economic development for Commerce City, senior vice president of economic development and public affairs for the Downtown Denver Partnership and, now, president of local affairs for Sewald Hanfling Public Affairs (sponsor of Who\u2019s Next: Politics).\nOne of her biggest projects as of late has been handling metro civic outreach for the Olympic exploratory process, reaching out to all Denver communities to provide the mayor and governor with feedback that represents all Denverites. She\u2019s also been working with the Westfield Group as it begins its massive Wynkoop North development to pursue public money for an affordable artist housing and a collective art space on the site.\n\u201cI need to play a part in impacting my community,\u201d she said.\nHillary Prendergast. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nHillary Prendergast, 28, has a busy spring \u2014 her three-person firm, WestBrooke Group, is fundraising for Walker Stapleton\u2019s gubernatorial campaign, George Brauchler\u2019s attorney general campaign and Wayne Williams\u2019 re-election campaign for Secretary of State. (WestBrooke also works with Colorado\u2019s House and Senate Republicans.)\nThat sizable portfolio belongs to an organization she describes as \u201cboutique,\u201d because she and WestBrooke co-founder Monica Owens Beauprez \u2014 how\u2019s that for Colorado Republican lineage? \u2014 want to be picky about who they work with, and be able to work closely with clients like Stapleton, who she describes as family. (He officiated her wedding last year.)\nPrendergast got her political start early, volunteering for the 2004 George W. Bush campaign in a field office in Jefferson City, Missouri. Mathletes among you have already worked out that she was 14 at the time. By 22, she was events director for Mitt Romney\u2019s presidential campaign in Colorado, ultimately organizing a major Red Rocks outing for Romney and running mate Paul Ryan, featuring Kid Rock, Rodney Atkins and New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez.\nKatelyn Roberts. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)\nKate Roberts, 32, is right now watching one of her success stories continue to play out. The chief operating officer and senior project manager at EIS Solutions oversaw operations for the 2016 \u201cRaise the Bar\u201d campaign \u2014 Amendment 71, which passed. That amendment is going through some legal challenges, but is at least for now in effect.\nAt EIS, the public affairs and advocacy firm where she\u2019s worked since 2011, she has focused on energy issues and is currently working on the redistricting effort spearheaded by DaVita CEO Kent Thiry. It\u2019s the kind of work she says she loves doing.\n\u201cI think Colorado voters are so unique in that they tend to gravitate toward looking to the long term for their state and making it better,\u201d she says.\nRoberts says she got into politics after applying for \u2014 and getting \u2014 an internship in the George W. Bush White House, working in First Lady Laura Bush\u2019s office. She graduated from Ithaca College in 2008 and worked on Sen. John McCain\u2019s presidential campaign, then worked in Sen. Joseph Lieberman\u2019s office before coming to Colorado to work on the 2010 senate campaign of Lt. Gov. Jane Norton.\npolitics, hiring",

        "raw_content": "Pentagon Rebrands Protest as \u201cLow-Level Terrorism\u201d\nby Tom Burghardt / June 19th, 2009\nYou have to hand it to Pentagon securocrats and their corporate cronies, they never miss an opportunity to demonize, vilify or otherwise slander domestic political dissent as \u201cterrorism.\u201d\nThe American Civil Liberties Union reported June 10 that \u201cAnti-terrorism training materials currently being used by the Department of Defense (DoD) teach its personnel that free expression in the form of public protests should be regarded as \u2018low level terrorism\u2019.\u201d\nAccording to the civil liberties\u2019 watchdog: \u201cAmong the multiple-choice questions included in its Level 1 Antiterrorism Awareness training course, the DoD asks the following: \u2018Which of the following is an example of low-level terrorist activity?\u2019 To answer correctly, the examinee must select \u2018protests\u2019.\u201d\nYes, you read that correctly. The Pentagon has designed a training system that puts you in the crosshairs! And why not? Back in 2003 Mike Van Winkle, the spokesman for the California Anti-Terrorism Information Center (CATIC) said of antiwar demonstrators brutally attacked by riot cops at the Port of Oakland during a protest against the illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq,\n\u201cYou can make an easy kind of a link that, if you have a protest group protesting a war where the cause that\u2019s being fought against is international terrorism, you might have terrorism at that (protest),\u201d said Van Winkle, of the state Justice Department. \u201cYou can almost argue that a protest against that is a terrorist act.\u201d (Ian Hoffman, Sean Holstege and Josh Richman, (\u201cIntelligence Agency Does Not Distinguish Between Terrorism and Peace Activism,\u201d Oakland Tribune, May 18, 2003)\nPretty ironic coming from a sprawling bureaucracy currently engaged in two aggressive wars of conquest for whom dropping a proverbial dime on unsuspecting goat herders or wedding parties is a walk in the park! Not to mention Joint Special Operations Command\u2019s \u201cexecutive assassination ring\u201d operating out of the former Vice President\u2019s office, who without so much as a by-your-leave, bumped-off official regime enemies.\nThis latest outrage follows a consistent pattern by the Pentagon that the ACLU has called \u201can egregious insult to constitutional values.\u201d\nAs Antifascist Calling revealed in previous reports, the U.S. Army\u2019s 3rd Infantry Division\u2019s 1st Brigade Combat Team is now deployed inside the United States \u201cunder the day-to-day control of U.S. Army North, the \u201cservice component\u201d of U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM).\nAFC also reported that since NORTHCOM\u2019s launch in 2002, it has been mired in controversy. Among its more dubious accomplishments were illegal domestic spying operations in conjunction with the Pentagon\u2019s shadowy Counter Intelligence Field Activity (CIFA). Before being run to ground, like many Defense Department intelligence operations, CIFA was heavily outsourced to security corporations. More than 900 employees out of a total work force of 1,300 were high-paid contractors.\nA veritable honey-pot for defense grifters such as Mitchell Wade, the notorious ex-chairman of MZM Inc. and his sidekick, disgraced former Congressman Randy \u201cDuke\u201d Cunningham (R-CA), eventually imprisoned when a cash-and-hookers-for-contracts scandal signaled the (temporary) eclipse of neoconservative stalwarts in Congress.\nDespite CIFA\u2019s shut-down last year, its TALON database (Threat and Local Observation Notices), which contained hundreds of files on antiwar activists, was shunted over to the FBI for safekeeping in its Guardian database, one component of the Bureau\u2019s massive Investigative Data Warehouse.\nIts a safe bet however, that the illegal collection of intelligence on domestic dissidents continues apace.\nInside the Antiterrorism-Training-Complex\nWhile the ideological mind-set driving domestic counterterrorism policies may not have changed much in the intervening years since Van Winkle\u2019s provocative statement, security firms and a veritable army of consultants drive America\u2019s Homeland Security-Industrial-Complex.\nAs USA Today reported in 2006, \u201cthe homeland security business is booming, and now it eclipses mature enterprises like movie-making and the music industry in annual revenue.\u201d And is likely to continue along that trajectory well into the future as new official enemies, particularly in the heimat come on-line.\n\u201cSpecialists\u201d in this lucrative market are former Special Operations soldiers or retired Military Intelligence, FBI or CIA officers who supplement their pensions by plowing the green pastures of the \u201cantiterrorism training\u201d industry. Indeed, there\u2019s even an industry association (one of several), the International Association for Counterterrorism and Security Professionals (IACSP).\nAccording to a blurb on the group\u2019s website, IACSP was formed to create a \u201ccenter of information and educational services for those concerned about the challenges now facing all free societies\u201d and \u201cis open to anyone with a sincere professional interest in understanding the security threat posed by terrorism and related conflicts.\u201d The organization conducts seminars and publishes The Journal of Counterterrorism and Homeland Security magazine. IACSP partners include:\nThe Institute of Terrorism Research and Response ITRR: Self-described as an \u201cAmerican and Israeli nonprofit corporation,\u201d ITRR market \u201cIsraeli and American experts\u201d who provide \u201ccounter-terrorism training, seminars, and security specialization in dealing with threats such as Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), suicide bombers, and other forms of international terror striking both the public and private sector.\u201d Their American-based \u201cterror experts\u201d conduct training seminars \u201cin dealing with domestic terrorism and eco-terror groups, including the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and the Earth Liberation Front (ELF).\u201d ITRR\u2019s Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center (TAM-C) was created to provide \u201cprovide accurate and actionable intelligence about potential security threats throughout the world.\u201d TAM-C\u2019s Ground Truth Network \u201cleverages the ITRR\u2019s international contacts and sources to provide real-time intelligence from the field,\u201d while keeping \u201cinternational corporations apprised of threats to their assets and personnel throughout the world.\u201d Partners include among others, The Israel Export & International Cooperation Institute (IEICI), the Perelman Security Group (PSG), and Multi Tier Solutions (MTS), a firm licensed by the Israeli Ministry of Defense, that provides \u201cspecialized consulting, field operations, specialized training, fusion center technology, intelligence management platforms.\u201d One shudders to think what activities fall under MTS\u2019 \u201cfield operations\u201d brief!\nHenley-Putnam University: Describing itself as \u201cthe only online University that specializes exclusively in Intelligence, Management, Terrorism and Counterterrorism Studies,\u201d Henley-Putnam boasts that their faculty is comprised of \u201cleaders in tradecraft from organizations such as the FBI, CIA, and Secret Service.\u201d Corporate partners include the Vienna, Virginia-based C2 Technologies, a firm specializing in \u201cstrategic human resources management, mission-critical outsourcing and information technology.\u201d The Centre for Counterintelligence and Security Studies (CI Centre): based in Alexandria, Virginia the firm offers \u201cin-depth and relevant education, training and analysis on counterintelligence, counterterrorism and security.\u201d With a staff comprised of veteran Cold Warriors, CI Centre was founded in 1997 by David G. Major, \u201ca retired, senior FBI Supervisory Special Agent.\u201d With tailored \u201ccore competencies\u201d offered in counterintelligence strategy and tactics, understanding terrorism, economic espionage protection and the like, CI Centre boasts of a staff of instructors who are \u201cseasoned veterans\u201d from the FBI, CIA, Defense Department, Military Intelligence, State Department, Department of Justice, Canadian RCMP and Cuban DI.\u201d CI Centre is a corporate member of the Association of Former Intelligence Officers (AFIO), an ultra-rightist outfit founded in 1975 by CIA officer David Atlee Phillips. AFIO was a critical behind-the-scenes player that worked to sabotage Watergate-era investigations of CIA crimes by the Church and Pike Committees. CTC International Group, Inc. (CTC): Self-described as \u201ca private intelligence agency for the global business community,\u201d CTC International \u201cis staffed primarily by former CIA officers\u201d that \u201cacts as a private intelligence organization for the legal and corporate communities.\u201d\nThe Performance Institute (PI: A \u201cprivate, nonpartisan think tank,\u201d PI conducts seminars and on-site training that provides \u201cintensive, methodology-based courses\u201d that \u201cinclude step-by-step processes to improve organizational management capacity.\u201d PI\u2019s Law Enforcement brief includes training in \u201cLaw Enforcement Management, Use of Force, Homeland Security, Funding, Sex Offender Management, Narcotics, Emergency Preparedness and Technology.\u201d\nIACSP will be sponsoring the 17th Annual Terrorism, Trends & Forecasts Symposium, September 18, 2009 at Fairleigh Dickinson University in New Jersey. In addition to standard boilerplate on Islamic terrorism and the \u201cthreat\u201d of illegal immigration to national security, topics will include a presentation on \u201cNational Security and Liberty: A Delicate Balance.\u201d Needless to say, readers of Antifascist Calling won\u2019t be surprised at how the scales are tipped during this presentation!\nAnother player in the Antiterrorism-Training-Complex is The Backup Training Corporation. In 2007 Backup Training was purchased by Blackwater (now Xe), the private military (mercenary) corporation. Backup is now Xe\u2019s \u201cdigital training division;\u201d terms of the deal were not disclosed according to Washington Technology. The firm\u2019s law enforcement brief offers dozens of DVDs on diverse topics such as Community Policing, Cultural Diversity (!), Domestic Terrorist Groups, Gang Training, a Home Defense webinar, Managing Street Informants, Racial Profiling and Surveillance.\nBut IACSP and Blackwater aren\u2019t alone in this lucrative field.\nSt. Petersburg College\u2019s Florida Regional Community Policing Institute offers an \u201cAnti-Terrorism Intelligence Awareness Training Program,\u201d in conjunction with the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC). Operating with grants from the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security, the course is designed \u201cto provide training to state and local law enforcement officers in domestic and international terrorism. The goal is to provide officers with a working knowledge of past and present terrorist/criminal extremist groups and individuals, their activities and tactics, and how to recognize and report potential indicators of terrorism and criminal extremism.\u201d There\u2019s even a module that will help you \u201cidentify the electronic tools and media which international and domestic terrorists use and the best practices identified for properly seizing computer hardware and peripherals.\u201d\nThe Institute for Preventive Strategies (IPS): A division of the Center for Rural Development in Somerset, Kentucky, IPS offers a Terrorism Prevention course for \u201claw enforcement professionals.\u201d According to a blurb on the group\u2019s website, IPS avers that \u201cIncidents related to homegrown terrorism in the United States are on the rise. Western Europe has long struggled with homegrown terrorists, but instances of American-born-and-raised citizens acting on Islamic terrorist motivations are a relatively new threat to the U.S.\u201d Studiously ignored however, are recent incidents of terrorist violence directed against Americans such as the assassination of women\u2019s health care provider, Dr. George Tiller, gunned down in his church in Wichita, Kansas on May 31. The alleged shooter, Scott Roeder, an associate of the violent antiabortion Army of God and the white separatist Freeman movement, was videotaped gluing the locks on a Kansas City clinic according to Democracy Now! Although footage was turned over to the FBI days before the murder, the Bureau failed to act. Which just goes to show, \u201cterrorism prevention\u201d is fine when it comes to \u201cIslamic radicals,\u201d antiwar activists or \u201cecoterrorists.\u201d Far-right Christian gangs on the other hand, are treated with kid gloves by the state or even celebrated as \u201cheroes\u201d by homegrown clerical fascists. Indeed, elements of the media such as the despicable Bill O\u2019Reilly and his Fox News cohorts helped set the stage for Tiller\u2019s murder by labeling him \u201cguilty of Nazi stuff,\u201d as Salon reported.\nAmerica\u2019s Orwell Complex\n\u201cPolicing ideas, rather than criminal activities\u201d as the ACLU wrote in a strongly-worded letter to Gail McGinn, Acting Under-Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, \u201cruns counter to our nation\u2019s core principles, undermining the very foundations of a free society.\u201d\nWhile true as far as it goes, the history of the United States is replete with Orwellian moments such as this, where \u201cfreedom\u201d is code for buying commodities and keeping your mouth shut\u2013or else.\nFrom the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 to the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, from COINTELPRO to Operation CHAOS, and from the USA PATRIOT Act to warrantless wiretapping and beyond, the national security state has always had but one purpose: to keep the lid on at home, thus greasing the wheels for corporate resource extraction (armed theft) on a planetary scale.\nAnd they call this \u201cfreedom.\u201d\nTom Burghardt is a researcher and activist based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Protest is indeed a fright to Imperialism and militarism disguised as democracy, security and prosperity. The term terrorism is usually depreciative. Likewise should Imperialisim and totalitarianism in modern world be seen, depreciative. Intimidation and limitation of individual human rights are unjustified terrorism and a first degree violation of dignity. The formula is not that complicated > respect citizens = no protest. I hope that U.S. citizens will soon wake up and protest against this dangerous development, before it would be too late. Today protest is low-level terrorism, tomorrow it will be a high-level one.\nphuque yew said on June 19th, 2009 at 10:25am #\nHasn\u2019t protest been treated, in terms of U. S. police state response, as \u201cterrorism\u201d in this country for quite some time? I was chased by the \u201cpigs\u201d on a liberal East Coast campus in 1972, and a friend gun-butted in the mouth, during protests against the bombing of Cambodia \u2013 even though we weren\u2019t in the protest! Look no further back than the fascist-sponsored response to protests during last year\u2019s corporate-party conventions, or back to Seattle in 1999, to witness the coming wave of brutal repression on American soil.\nThe means to suppress dissidence has always been at the ready, but now we\u2019re paying, out of fear, neglect, stupidity, and apathy, our precious lives and personal resources working for a state apparatus that will stop short of nothing to maintain its stranglehold on our lives and on the fate of the planet. American lives are just another zit to be popped if we mouth off and demand democracy.\nUntil Americans, collectively, wake up and respond to fire with bigger fire (whatever that means to use, take it and run with it), we\u2019ll be led like sheep to the slaughter for practicing our individual and constitutional rights.\nWant totalitarian fascism? We\u2019re well on the way \u2014 just ask the citizens of El Salvador, Nicaragua, Chile, the Philippines, Colombia, Zaire, Iraq, Afghanistan, et al., et al., et al. \u2014 and we\u2019re all responsible for not resisting to the greatest extent possible. Really, are TV, golf, and cosmetics more important than building a world where your grandchildren can live decent lives? What value if all the material crap if life on this planet continues to be bludgeoned by capitalism?\nThe U. S. government is the only terrorist in the room.\nSuthiano said on June 19th, 2009 at 11:08am #\n\u201cWant totalitarian fascism? We\u2019re well on the way\u201d\nYou\u2019re already there. The banks the corporations own the government. That\u2019s the definition of fascism.\nYour government spies on everyone, it detains people without charges, and ships them to secret prisons around the world\u2026. that\u2019s fascism.\nThere\u2019s no critical media, and even the \u201ccritical media\u201d drops the ball on all of the important issues\u2026. that\u2019s fascism.\nU.S. House condemns violent crackdown on Iran protests\nIn the strongest message yet from the U.S. government, the House of Representatives voted 405-1 Friday to condemn Iran\u2019s crackdown on demonstrators and the government\u2019s interference with Internet and cell phone communications. (http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1094274.html)\nI guess it\u2019s not low-level terrorism if the CIA is funding the protests\u2026\nRH2 said on June 19th, 2009 at 12:21pm #\nSouthiano,\nThe CIA funding is not a law, but a known policy to enhance \u201cdemocracy\u201d in the world. This is nothing new. The concept or definition of the Pentagon is a very dangerous approach if it is meant to enhance security on U.S. soil. It is not a legislation, but it could be one if Americans remain indifferent and submissive. I think there are good potential purchasers in the Congress of such an ideological marketing. You have mentioned some drawbacks in the U.S. society. Let us hope that the Americans get out and write on their chests: the Pentagon should protect and not attack us.\nDon Hawkins said on June 19th, 2009 at 12:49pm #\nSuthiano that last comment good point. How does that go? In a time of Universal deceit telling the truth is not the best way to go. The myth is the message.\nDon Hawkins said on June 20th, 2009 at 6:10am #\nCHARLESTON, W.Va. \u2014 Massey Energy President Don Blankenship wants to debate one of the world\u2019s top climate scientists about global warming, coal and the West Virginia economy.\nBlankenship issued the challenge Friday to renowned NASA scientist James Hansen after word came out that Hansen was scheduled to attend a mountaintop removal protest next week outside of one of Massey\u2019s Raleigh County operations.\nHansen is among the headliners at the Tuesday event, along with actress Daryl Hannah. Protesters plan to meet near Marsh Fork Elementary School, which sits below a huge Massey slurry impoundment, and risk arrest at a nearby Massey office.\n\u201cWhile I don\u2019t recall anyone inviting out-of-state environmental protesters from San Francisco and a Hollywood actress to Massey\u2019s property on June 23, I\u2019m more than willing to invite Dr. Hansen to have a factual discussion about coal mining in West Virginia, which provides thousands of jobs in the state and provides low-cost energy to millions of Americans,\u201d Blankenship said in a press release.\nThat\u2019s June 23 Tuesday Massey\u2019s Raleigh County operations meet near Marsh Fork Elementary School West Virginia.\nhttp://mountainaction.org/wordpress/updates/ Check out these pictures.\n14 people were arrested June 18 in a peaceful act of direct action on a Massey Energy Co. mountaintop removal mining site near Twilight, W. Va. In Iran a few more people protesting in the millions not in the States in the hundreds and after all it\u2019s only about the survival of the human race no big deal.\nIn Iran the younger and some not so young in the millions right now a face off with the supreme leaders people. Is it good against evil. How about new and old. Real old real, real old.\nAnd this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come. Oh boy\nThe Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Carlo Sagan\nThe Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. Sagan\nMaybe God has let everybody who ever lived be reborn \u2013 so he or she can see how it ends. Even Pitecanthropus erectus and Australopithecus and Sinanthropus pekensis and the Neanderthalers are back on Earth \u2013 to see how it ends. They\u2019re all on Times Square \u2013 making change for peepshows. Or recruiting Marines. Spoken by Dr. Norbert Woodley.\nLook again at that dot. That\u2019s here. That\u2019s home. That\u2019s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every \u201csuperstar\u201d, every \u201csupreme leader\u201d, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there \u2014 on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.\nThe crucified planet Earth,\nshould it find a voice\nand a sense of irony,\nmight now well say\nof our abuse of it,\n\u201cForgive them, Father,\nThe irony would be\nthat we know what\nWe have heard the rationales offered by the nuclear superpowers. We know who speaks for the nations. But who speaks for the human species? Who speaks for Earth?\nYes keep your mouth shut\u2013or else and keep consuming like there\u2019s no tomorrow because to do that you will be right. Shut them down sort of.\nCalm said on June 20th, 2009 at 8:27am #\nWhen civil unrest begins in North America the protesters should call themselves \u201cReformists\u201d and then it is allowed or even encouraged by the U.S. government.\nIt irritates me to no end to hear the American news media compare the right of protesters in America and Iran.\nIt\u2019s a damn joke.\nThere have been over 15,000 arrests for resistance to war since 2002.\nNicole and Jeffery Rank of Corpus Christi, Texas, were handcuffed and removed from the July 4, 2004, rally at the state Capitol, where Bush gave a speech.\nAn Australian man was denied permission to board a connecting flight within Australia unless he removed the T-shirt titled \u201cWorld\u2019s #1 Terrorist\u201d with a picture of U.S. President George W. Bush.\nHunter College student Stephanie Schwartz says Coast Guard officials stopped her two weeks ago aboard the ferry. During the summer, Iraqi blogger Raed Jarrar was stopped by security officials for wearing the same t-shirt at JFK Airport. He was forced to change the shirt before boarding a JetBlue flight.\nA computer seized and government is investigating her for \u201csedition\u201d.\nBerg, a clinical nurse specialist, wrote a letter in September to a weekly Albuquerque newspaper criticizing how the administration handled Hurricane Katrina and the Iraq War. She urged people to \u201cact forcefully\u201d to remove an administration she said played games of \u201cvicious deceit.\u201d\nInvestigated and harassed by Home Land Security.\nWhen the Iraq War was looking imminent, not long after September 11, Dwight attached a garbage bag to the back of his truck bed. He splattered the bag and the truck with ketchup and added a sign reading, \u201cThis veteran knows that our children are worth more than a $6.95 body bag.\u201d When he drove down the freeway, the bag would inflate and appear occupied.\nI am watching pictures out of Iran on CNN and the supreme leaders people dressed in black What\u2019s up with this whole men in black thing. How about shorts and Hawaiian shirts. In the States same thing when James Hansen and his small group of people in there teens were in front of the power plant in DC same men in black. If you don\u2019t need it don\u2019t buy it. Big ticket idem\u2019s that\u2019s a Wall Street term like cars, stoves, stuff don\u2019t buy it and let them know that is what you are doing. Turn up the air don\u2019t use juice unless you need it. Only buy basic food no meat the basic tuff. It\u2019s kind of better for you anyway. Shut them down sort of. Well we do that anyway don\u2019t we? We just need to do more of it. Hard yes but to not do it hard is the wrong word. The crap we buy in the States where does it come from well the Earth and slaves that will live just as good or better if we don\u2019t buy the stuff.\nWhile many of the environmental impacts of humankind closely map demographic indicators, this leaves out one vital component: consumption. The per-capita consumption of key natural resources varies hugely around the world. Typically, but not universally, the citizens of rich industrialized nations use more of the world\u2019s resources and produce more waste. Sometimes they thereby deplete their own environments; sometimes other people\u2019s.\nFor many resources, the United States of America is the world\u2019s largest consumer in absolute terms. For a list of 20 major traded commodities, it takes the greatest share of 11 of them: corn, coffee, copper, lead, zinc, tin, aluminum, rubber, oil seeds, oil and natural gas. For many more it is the largest per-capita consumer.\nSometimes other people\u2019s. No sometimes about it. Excuse me how much to you weigh only 310 pounds, cool. How many cars do you have wow you must have made a lot of money doing late night TV. Do you really need all those? How many bed rooms in that house 25 cool. The way we live in the States is nut\u2019s and how is it all working out? You tell me. The amount of water and resources on just golf courses is mind boggling and lawns same. I know un American keep your mouth shut or else. Let\u2019s see how California is doing by September and in say just three more years. The people who need to keep there mouth shut is so called leaders who\u2019s ideas seem to be old ideas that got us here and there plan is keep us there with them as we all go down the drain in slow motion and we are finding out now not so slow. Keep your mouth shut am I in trouble now well I think we are all in a little trouble. Men in black I still think shorts and Hawaiian shirts used shorts and shirts from a second hand store. Our military in the States what shape are they in? Just one more tour I promise. Here take these pills call me in a week.\nIt looks like I made a mistake not millions in Iran doing the protests only thousands still only hundreds in the States and most protests for lower tax\u2019s. Isn\u2019t that so American. To solve the problems we all face lower or higher tax\u2019s is not really the problem a few harder choices than that.\nDon Hawkins said on June 20th, 2009 at 11:06am #\nIf we keep on with business as usual, the Earth will be warmed more every year; drought and floods will be endemic; many more cities, provinces, and whole nations will be submerged beneath the waves \u2013 unless heroic worldwide engineering countermeasures are taken. In the longer run, still more dire consequences may follow, including the collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet, and the inundation of almost all the costal cities on the planet. Carl Sagan\nCarl Sagan died in 1996 and to know then earlier about West Antarctic ice sheet was very clear thinking indeed.\nSuthiano said on June 21st, 2009 at 2:23pm #\nMousavi: People are entitled to protest fraud and lies (http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1245184890769&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull)\nMousavi defends \u2018right\u2019 to protest, after 17 die in Iran (http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1094502.html)\nIf only the Pentagon agreed that Americans have the same rights!\nHappeh said on June 22nd, 2009 at 7:51am #\nThis has all been planned out for years, and is taking place in all western countries. When the \u201cterrorist\u201d laws were passed they were specifically written to apply to animal rights activists and environmental activists.\nThe police are being given \u201cterrorist\u201d training when there are no terrorists. Quite naturally, the police use those \u201cterrorist\u201d tactics on whoever they can get their hands on. You and me and the other citizens that pay their salary.\nIn Britain there is video of 4 or 5 male policeman tying up middle aged women like they were terrorists for taking a picture of the police. Seriously. The lady took a picture of a policeman and 3 or 4 of them jumped her.\nhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/jun/21/kingsnorth-protester-arrests-video-complaint\nHow can police justify trussing up middle aged women like turkeys, then physically assaulting them? There is no justification.\nThe police know they can use their \u201cterrorist\u201d training on anyone and get away with it. This video is titled in the newspaper as if the newspaper is reporting an outrage.\nI personally think the paper is showing the video as a sanctioned government warning to people about what will happen to them if they decide to protest the economy or politics or anything else.\ndavidS said on June 27th, 2009 at 7:04pm #\n\u201cthe paper is showing the video as a sanctioned gov\u2019t warning\u2026\n\u2026about what will happen to them if\u2026\nI\u2019ve been thinking the same thing for years now, whenever I see a \u201creality\u201d police show, Cops, etc. Your rights? What rights? (!).\nWatching all of the fast-proliferating prison documentaries gives the same message.\nWhat\u2019s next? Reality shows documenting entire families being hauled off and tortured for mis-deeds of the siblings?

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m watching you and your blog.\nI read your blog. You may also have noticed that I occasionally comment, and, less often, I even Like one of your posts. But rest assured, I\u2019m always out there, reading your blog.\nI was doing just that yesterday, innocently reading this post, Is Quiet Feminism an Oxymoron? over on the Green Study, which included a link to another blog, The Outlier Collective. At the Outlier Collective, I read the post, 10 Signs that Feminism May Not Be For You, and down the list, I came across the seventh sign.\n7. You ever, ever, ever feel the need to clarify that you\u2019re not one of those feminists.\nThis is code for, \u201cBut I don\u2019t hate men! I don\u2019t wear cargo pants [emphasis added]! I shave my legs! I promise!\u201d And for sure those statements are true for many feminists; in fact, none of us hate men. But by distancing yourself from those feminists, whoever those feminists are, perpetuates the idea that a) there\u2019s something wrong with those feminists, b) those feminists are totally threatening to men and masculinity, and c) that they make up the majority of the feminist movement.\nRemember how we were talking earlier about feminism being all about choice? Well, it\u2019s a two-way street, my friend. You can choose to wear your lipstick and your Peter Pan collar, and another woman can choose to wear hiking boots and a baseball cap [emphasis added], and at the end of the day, both of you are awesome feminists.\nAt the exact moment I was reading those paragraphs, I happened to be lying on the sofa in my living room wearing (get ready for a shocking revelation)\ncargo pants (well, shorts, to be exact)\na baseball cap (Go Red Sox!)\nLace these up and immediately feel the urge to munch carpet.\nSo I read that post, and I immediately thought, \u201cOMG! I\u2019m a lesbian one of those feminists.\u201d Before, I had just thought I was a feminist, but, as it turns out, I guess I\u2019ve been wrong. On account of the cargo shorts and the baseball cap, you see. I even own a pair of hiking boots, now that I think of it, because I tried to convince my family that one time that we could be \u201coutdoorsy.\u201d\nThen it occurred to me that I\u2019m not actually a lesbian one of those feminists, I\u2019m just lazy. My hair had dried funny after I showered, and I didn\u2019t feel like fixing it, so I was hiding it under the baseball cap, and I was wearing the cargo shorts because wearing something else would have required me to do a load of laundry.\nBut I wonder what sort of assessment people make of me when they see me out in the cargo shorts and the baseball cap. Do they think, \u201cAh, lesbian one of those feminists,\u201d as they completely ignore that tall guy I\u2019m with who (I suddenly feel compelled to point out) I\u2019ve been fucking the past ten years? What about the two children who are the result of that fucking? Is all of that negated by the cargo shorts and the baseball cap? Maybe they think, \u201cOh, the kids must be from before she realized she liked licking pussy wearing cargo shorts and a baseball cap.\u201d\nSo, in conclusion, let me blow your mind by stating for the record that I am one of those awesome feminists who shaves her legs, likes penis, cargo shorts, and baseball (not necessarily in that order). And when you see me out in public wearing cargo shorts and a baseball cap, you should think, \u201cJesus Christ, that woman is so lazy.\u201d\nYou can read more about leg shaving and lesbians in these posts Shining, Gleaming, Streaming, Flaxen, Waxen, Turns Out Ellen Degeneres is Not the Only Lesbian in the World, and What A Pathetic Lesbian I Would Be.\nPosted in: blogging, blogging tips, feminism, humor | Tagged: feminism, lesbians, The Outlier Collective\n14 thoughts on \u201cLazy or Lesbian? Sometimes it\u2019s hard to tell . . .\u201d\nWhile I mostly agree with the post over on the Outlier Collective that I\u2019ve linked to here, I want to say that feminism is for everyone who believes in the equality between men and women.\nAlso, I feel the need to clarify that I am a feminist who has never, ever, never uttered the phrase, \u201cI\u2019m a feminist but I like men\u201d or some such. I\u2019m a feminist.\nAs a woman who has spent her formative years in flannel shirts, old jeans and running shoes, I can attest that not only am I lazy when it comes to appearance, I\u2019m likely too lazy to feel the need to clarify my sexual orientation.\nI have to say that I was absolutely gobsmacked when I read the post describing \u201cthose feminists\u201d wearing cargo pants and baseball caps, because, hey! I\u2019m not a lesbian. And I don\u2019t really know how true it is, either, because all the Moms in my playgroup wear baseball caps at least sometimes, and they can\u2019t all be lesbians, can they? I\u2019ll have to ask . . .\nBut it\u2019s funny. I want a t shirt that says \u201cI\u2019m dressed this way because I\u2019m lazy.\u201d\nThis is the inherent problem with labels and their definitions \u2013 they mean different things to different people and somebody is going to be gobsmacked by being included or excluded. Also, the fact that appearance still plays a role in someone\u2019s ideological stance speaks to how condescendingly and superficially our culture treats feminist thinking.\nPS \u2013 I just did one of those annoying blog award posts and you\u2019re listed as one of the nominees. I\u2019ve really enjoyed reading your posts! http://thegreenstudy.com/2013/06/20/the-awards-show-part-5/\nI have yet to meet one of these feminists who allegedly hate men.\nI saw this meme on Facebook the other day, which I almost shared, except that I still hate memes: \u201cFeminazi\u201d \u2013 Because wanting your gender to be treated like human beings is just like invading Poland.\nHmmm. I\u2019ve written before about my reluctance to join the \u201cWomyn\u2019s Group\u201d on my college campus when I was an undergrad because there was a definite stigma attached to it (even at the very liberal East Coast college I attended) and the most visible members of this group were also the most militant. I\u2019m not sure if they hated men, exactly, but there certainly were a few of them who would argue for a sort of separatism, not unlike the Black separatism advocated by Booker T. Washington, among others, at the turn of the last century, and more radical black nationalists in the \u201960s and \u201970s.\nYes, well it is the liberal Northeast after all. (Kidding \u2013 I\u2019m from Connecticut.)\nI know that there are definitely seperatists groups, but outside of the more liberal hotspots, I would consider those to be very much fringe groups. Maybe that\u2019s why I\u2019ve never met any of them \u2013 I live in the Bible Belt and the nearsest liberal hotspot is hundreds of miles away.\nI thought the same thing about that post, actually\u2014hey, what about my cargo pants and baseball caps? I also shave my legs, love baseball and the penis. But like you said, being a feminist isn\u2019t about trappings. It\u2019s about whether you think women should have the same rights as men. The window dressing doesn\u2019t/shouldn\u2019t matter.\nRight. And I don\u2019t mean to imply that the post over on the Outlier Collective is saying that feminists dress a certain way\u2013it isn\u2019t, and in fact is making the exact opposite point. I\u2019m just riffing on a couple of words in a very long post there that caught my eye, and I just happened to be wearing cargo shorts and a baseball cap that day. \ud83d\ude42\nTotally with you! I didn\u2019t think you were implying anything, it\u2019s just funny because I thought the same thing. And I co-host the Outlier Collective, fer crissakes.\nWhat blew my mind was that you\u2019re still fucking the same guy after ten years! Now that\u2019s feminism!\nI think that\u2019s called \u201cinertia\u201d not feminism \ud83d\ude42",

        "title": "13 Lessons I Learned From The Job Hunting Process \u2013 Dream Chaser",
        "raw_content": "Being a job seeker is nothing new to me, however, I have never been one outside Latvia. Looking for a job in the UK brings the job hunt to a whole new level, as I have to work hard to prove that my skills and experience is comparable and valid. As much as I prepared myself for this challenge in advance, there are things you can only learn in the process.\n1. Your CV Will Never Be Perfect\nI\u2019m not saying you\u2019re bad at putting your CV together, not at all! But what I mean is that the whole job hunting process is such a big learning lesson, and you will learn a lot about yourself along the way. Including \u2013 how to best present yourself via your CV. I always take notes and make instant changes to my CV whenever I get any useful comments or just come to a conclusion that something might not be put the right way. Don\u2019t treat your CV as complete, and you will improve a lot.\n2. You Have To Know What You Want\nSure, you want to get the job! But it\u2019s not that simple. Sometimes you\u2019re so desperate to land a job as soon as possible, that you even lie to yourself to convince that this is what you want. Sometimes you don\u2019t really know what you want and may come across confused and your our answers to some questions might give it away. Good thing is \u2013 the more interviews you will have, the easier it will be to answer this question, and the more convincing you will sound.\n3. You Don\u2019t Have To Jump For The First Offer That Comes Along\nThis was one of the things I repeated myself over and over since the first day I started looking for a job in Manchester. However, when that first offer came, I was so excited and happy that I wasn\u2019t really thinking straight. I even subconsciously convinced myself that this is what I wanted and downplayed the minuses. But then the full details came in and I was quite disappointed. It wasn\u2019t really what I was told it\u2019s gonna be, so I was seriously rethinking it all. I did feel guilty, but I made the decision to turn the offer down.\nThe same goes for interviews. You\u2019re not obliged to sign up for every single job interview your recruiters are offering you, and you\u2019re also not forced to go on that second round interview if the first one didn\u2019t feel right. I have turned down both, and haven\u2019t regretted my choices. I rather enjoy this process (as much as it\u2019s possible) than doing things I am not enjoying.\n4. Know Your Worth And Let Them Know It\nTo be able to turn down a bad offer, you have to know your value (and your true wishes). If you have prepared well for this process, you should know what kind of job you are able to do and how much you should earn. If you are having doubts, talk to recruiters to reassure this, but once you set your goals, stick to them. Be prepared as you might meet someone who could try to diminish your value \u2013 that\u2019s part of the process, unfortunately.\nAt one of the interviews I was told that the fact that I haven\u2019t worked with a specific system means that I will need a lot of training and input on their side, and it was a reason good enough to pay me less than other candidates. However, lack of the very same knowledge was never brought up at other interviews or was overlooked with no worries.\n5. Preparing For The Worst Questions Is Useless\nI did a lot of research on all the possible questions you might get at job interviews and how you should answer them. I even made my own list of the most tricky ones, wrote my perfect answers, and read them, again and again, to be prepared. Maybe that increased my confidence, however, all in all, that was a complete waste of time. I don\u2019t think I even came across any of these questions, but I sure spent a lot of time on them. The worst question wasn\u2019t the one I expected\u2026\n6. The Hardest Question Is Not The Supposedly Trickiest One\nOne of the first interviews I went to in Manchester was led by the agency owners, and they seemingly didn\u2019t have any training on recruiting. Therefore the interview was quite awkward, and to make it worse \u2013 I hadn\u2019t even caught my breath after arriving when they asked me the toughest question. And before you read any further \u2013 I treat it as the toughest as it might leave you giving a breathless monologue for 10 minutes. That is \u2013 if you\u2019re not prepared.\n\u201cTell us about yourself and your professional experience!\u201d This question basically asks you to retell the most important things of your career. And if you\u2019re not prepared for this one, you might end up in a chaotic attempt to retell your CV all the while trying to include all the important details about your experience, skills, projects you\u2019ve worked on, clients you\u2019ve dealt with etc. Therefore, prepare for just one question\u2026\n7. You Have To Have And Know Your Story\nThat\u2019s right! You have to be able to answer to such a question, and in my opinion, it requires a story. After that awkward interview, I took a good look at my CV and tried to figure out how to make a story with all the \u201cprops\u201d that I had in front of me. Luckily, I quickly came up with one that made sense and included all the various skills I had, the experience I have gained, and how I ended up where I am now.\nI have been telling this story ever since, changing the plot where necessary. And rest assured \u2013 that question gets asked in so many forms in every single interview.\nI guess this is not something I have learned over the past couple of months, rather \u2013 I have made sure that you really have to be honest. And that is also the way to answer those \u201ctricky\u201d questions I mentioned above. If you try to answer in a way people would want you to answer, you might end up with a job you don\u2019t really like or working for/with people you can\u2019t get along with\u2026 If you even get the job, that is.\nYes, interviewers love when you come with questions and ask them with pure curiosity, but that is not the only reason to do so. It is your chance to get to know more about the company, about the position and daily tasks it involves. When you prepare for the interview, jot down everything that comes to your mind. It\u2019s not a bad thing to take this list with you to the interview \u2013 it will just show that you take it all seriously.\n10. Prepare Thoroughly\nI have spent hours or even days to get myself ready for a job interview (to be fair \u2013 days are needed when you have a task or presentation to prepare), and I have never felt sorry for that time. It is important that you understand what the company is, what it does, every single detail about the role etc. Make sure you know the job description and their website from A to Z, but don\u2019t just stop there \u2013 Google it, read their social media feeds, find their employees on LinkedIn, explore it all!\nYes, you might not need all this and you might hear some of it during the interview, but you might as well surprise them with your knowledge. I managed to leave a really good impression when I let them know that I have read their blog\u2026 on two occasions! And it is always good to know what the company actually makes/creates. So don\u2019t be lazy on this one!\n11. Let Them Know You Want The Job\n(If you don\u2019t want the job, you shouldn\u2019t go to the interview!) Recruiting is never a one-way process. Employers are looking for new employees, but you are looking for a new employer and a job you could love and enjoy doing! Therefore it is important that you like them, you like the job and you want to work there. More importantly \u2013 you have to let them know all that.\nI have experienced a couple of interviews when I truly sensed that my possible future employer is concerned if I would be excited enough for the job. The reasons might vary (they think you\u2019re looking for something else with your experience, they don\u2019t feel your enthusiasm, something you have said etc.), but there\u2019s one simple way to dispel the doubt. Tell them why you like the company, what you like about the job, how you see yourself at this job, and why you prefer it over others.\n12. Be Persistent And Patient\nI get it \u2013 recruiters have loads of clients and candidates to focus on, and things might get a little crazy once in a while. However, if someone has forgotten about you, this is not the time to be all shy (and this is written by the shyest person in Manchester). Don\u2019t hesitate to remind about your existence, repeat your questions etc. We\u2019re all just humans!\nThis process also requires you to be patient \u2013 waiting on that reply to your application, recruiter\u2019s call, job interview confirmation, feedback after the interview, the final decision from the employer\u2026 This process takes time, but only with persistence and patience, you can eventually reach your goals.\n13. Try Alternative Routes\nDo you have that one company you would love to work for? They might not have open and publicly available vacancies, however, it won\u2019t do you (nor them) harm to try. I have sent my CV directly over to a couple of digital agencies and got them interested just because they were impressed by my skills and experience. It\u2019s always worth to give it a shot!\nIf you find this useful, keep an eye on this blog as I will share other stories from my job hunting experience in Manchester. If you have your own valuable lessons to share \u2013 don\u2019t be shy and leave a comment!\nPosted in: job search | Tagged: expat, expatriate, job interview, job search, jobseeker, living abroad, Manchester, recruitment, unemployed\n8 thoughts on \u201c13 Lessons I Learned From The Job Hunting Process\u201d\nrebelpilots1111 says:\nWhat are some interview questions you are asked in England that you normally are not asked in your home country? Or are the questions similar?\nHere they ask me why I left Latvia, why I chose Manchester (and not London instead)\u2026 some are worried I might leave one day to return home.\nOther than that \u2013 here people seem more interested in your career goals to see if you can fulfill them at their company. Back in Latvia you mostly feel like the employer is the only one who has to choose, while here they actually try to *sell* you the company and what an amazing place it would be to work.\nI\u2019ve also had 2nd round interviews like I\u2019ve never had back in Latvia, while some are pretty much the same. I think it also depends on the company, not all the differences can be referred to Latvia vs. UK.\nNatalie Romero says:\nThis is all great advice!

        "title": "Bill 41: Infrastructure Investment?? | Dr. Gail Beck",
        "raw_content": "Minister Eric Hoskins\u2019 Bill 41 continues to be confounding for many physicians, but possibly the most consistent question I am hearing is: Why do we need another layer of bureaucracy? How will sub-LHINs improve the system? One very intriguing twitter answer that I received suggested that this extra bureaucratic layer will serve as \u201cadministrative infrastructure\u201d for primary care. That is something worth considering since I agree that Family Doctors need much more support than they are currently receiving.\nBefore I move directly into the discussion, I want to stress that I am not including those primary care providers who are not physicians in this consideration. The reason is that I want to focus on the infrastructure resources needed to deliver primary care and the Nurse Practitioner- led clinics are tremendously well-resourced, with all expenses already covered by the government, a luxury that physicians cannot access to the same degree which is the point here. https://www.aohc.org/nurse-practitioner-led-clinics\nRemembering that the point of Bill 41 is better integration within the health care system, one of the tools that can best assist with this is the Electronic Medical Record (EMR). At its best, the EMR can facilitate a patient\u2019s health information being updated quickly, accurately and efficiently, hopefully from every care provider and facility generating information. This, unfortunately, is not at all the case with most EMRs in Ontario. For example, wouldn\u2019t it make sense that anytime a patient has lab tests completed anywhere in the province that the results of these tests would be immediately sent to the records in each of their doctors\u2019 offices? Wouldn\u2019t you expect that discharge summaries, consultation reports, and other documents related to a patient\u2019s hospitalization would automatically be sent to their family physician? Wouldn\u2019t it be great if, no matter where you were, a doctor looking after you could access your health record with your permission from anywhere? Well, that is certainly the vision but it is not at all the reality for most patients in Ontario. As a practicing physician with the best Electronic Medical Record that my underfunded hospital can afford, my patients do not have access to any of the above elements of an EMR. The electronic medical record is administrative infrastructure that can facilitate improved integration for patients in Ontario today and the funding for this important tool has been cut by the Government. Doctors are now expected to fund all improvements to the functionality of the EMRs in their offices.\nHow will another layer of bureaucracy solve the problem of insufficient funding for electronic medical records?\nLet\u2019s think of other administrative resources that could improve integration of primary care in Ontario. Many patients may suddenly need housing and financial supports after falling ill and become unable to work. Social workers might be able to assist them in navigating Ontario\u2019s complicated social welfare system, or Canada\u2019s employment insurance supports. But no social workers are being funded for patients.\nThe Community Care Access Centres are being transferred to the Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) in Bill 41. The CCACs provided services while the LHINs provide administration. It is not yet clear how the services are to be developed. What is even more worrying is that the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) is concerned that nursing jobs will be lost with the transition. I would like to be assured that nursing is not being replaced with administration \u2013 what Family Health Group, or Family Health Organization or Family Health Team would not benefit from more nursing support?\nThese are just three examples of support services that would help primary care physicians better integrate patients\u2019 care within the larger system of health care in Ontario. The last support, nursing care, cannot be seen as \u201cadministrative infrastructure\u201d in the same way as EMRs and Social Work are, but they are a resource that would be a great benefit to patient care.\nThese are the kind of practical resources that would help family physicians in Ontario feel confident that the Government of Ontario understood their day to day struggles integrating their patients\u2019 care. If the Government of Ontario had asked doctors what would help, these are the kind of answers they would have gotten, I believe. I still have not heard any doctor say that more administration was the answer.\nOne thought on \u201cBill 41: Infrastructure Investment??\u201d\nPingback: #EMR \u2013 Bill 41: Infrastructure Investment? \u2013 Medical Technology Ontario\n\u2190 Is there someone else Narcissus?\nBill 41 \u2013 What about Specialists? \u2192",

        "title": "Social and Political Thinking | Dr. Krabby",
        "raw_content": "Category Social and Political Thinking\nThough I have an immense amount of respect and admiration for Dany Laferri\u00e8re and his work (though not for the Acad\u00e9mie fran\u00e7aise, I couldn\u2019t care less about this normative, haughty, obsolete, and cliquey institution), a little something bothers me in his discourse about the French language in Quebec. He is very much revered, and rightfully so, as he is a wonderful writer, and so we take his words for irrefutable truth. His statements are never challenged, because an untouchable aura emanates from his eloquence. However, the content of his words need to be discussed. The last two times he attended the political/cultural talk show Tout le monde en parle, the one with the largest audience in Quebec, he has of course reiterated his love for the Quebecois twist to French, but he also stated something along the lines of the problem is not so much in the English words we use and adapt to Quebec French, which makes Quebecois French beautiful, but rather the insidious infiltration of Shakespeare\u2019s language into the structure and grammar. He also added that then, our language becomes a language of colonized people (the English having colonized Quebec/New France/Lower Canada/Canada East). All of this said in a very dramatic tone. That\u2019s indeed a very interesting topic, and it becomes particularly difficult to challenge his statements not only because of his reputation and definite talent, but also because of his own Haitian origins, which he writes about in the very texts that gave rise to his fame. But nonetheless, this idea is one which definitely requires nuancing.\nI do consider as well that the English colonized Quebec, but this statement needs to be contextualized and further reflected upon, it cannot simply be stated like this, with all the authority on the matter that he detains, without unpacking such a loaded and emotional concept. First, this implies that French is not a colonizer language. In fact, the reason why there is such a thing as Quebec French is because of French colonialism in the first place. French is as guilty of being the colonizer\u2019s language as English. I do think Laferri\u00e8re realizes this, but it is crucial to explain this double-colonization that happened in Quebec in order to really provide an understanding of the linguistic, let alone cultural and identity, reality of Quebecois. We are colonized colonizers, and it is not right to selectively pick one of the two in order to make a point.\nSecond, why this need to make distinctions between \u201cwhat is right\u201d and \u201cwhat is wrong\u201d to use from English? Why is it okay if I say \u201cj\u2019vais checker le hood de ton char toute fuck\u00e9 qui est park\u00e9 chez nous\u201d but not okay for me to say \u201cj\u2019vais visiter ma m\u00e8re mais j\u2019vais arr\u00eater par chez vous en passant\u201d (instead of \u201crendre visite \u00e0\u201d and \u201cpasser chez\u201d). Why does, according to him, the former phrase showcase the beauty of Quebec French, while the latter is the proliferation of colonialism? In any case, both contain a number of language mistakes, but why would he rank them? All these mistakes are in fact due to the infiltration of English into our language. But giving more weight to structure rather than to vocabulary for instance is completely subjective. He argues that we reinstate our status of colonized people, and think like a colonized people, when we use structures from English, without really explaining his point of view. \u201cThinking,\u201d to reuse his words, requires both structure and vocabulary, and vocabulary is even more important than structure in terms of communication and comprehension. Such a strong statement on his part needs to be better explained and nuanced. I understand this was a talk show and not an academic essay, but all the more reasons to be extra careful with such strong, unfounded statements. I\u2019m open to his idea, but as it is, I\u2019m very resistant to it, for it seems like yet other arbitrary boxes to scold the lower classes that apparently think like colonized people, while \u201ceducated\u201d people are apparently free from this.\nMay 25, 2016 July 27, 2016 Dr. Krabby\t2 Comments\nWe\u2019re a happy family.\nWon\u2019t you say you love me too?\n-Barney\nFamily is a concept I\u2019ve always had difficulty to grasp, despite it being so basic, so fundamental to the way our societies are built. How on Earth are people that you\u2019ve never met or chosen supposed to be the most important people in your life? Why do we have so much pressure to like, let alone love, people that are imposed to you? Why are we relentlessly taught to love our family unconditionally? Everyone has a family, from the best, most generous people, to the abusers, the criminals. And sometimes, which is even worse, your family is the best to everyone around them except to you.\nI would dislike my brother if he were not my brother. In school, we would have had the typical jock-nerd clich\u00e9d relationship. We have no common interests, very different values. We talk a few times a year, always in the context of family reunions. It used to make me very sad, as I grew up, to see the big brother I always looked up to become close to a stranger. But as an adult, I now see him as this person with whom I have very cordial relations. Someone I care for from afar, an acquaintance. My efforts to get closer have been in vain, so now we have a semi-neutral relationship. But this is okay. We\u2019re two persons that, due to circumstances out of our control, were born in the same household. Why would our mere genetic similarity make us de facto very close, when our personalities are not? I do envy some of my friends who say their sibling is their best friend, their dad is their hero, their mom is their role model, their aunt is like a cool big sister, their grandma spoils them with food and affection, and their grandpa is a source of wisdom and courage, and such stereotypes that seem to come from everyone around us.\nAll of these idealizations and protection of one\u2019s family at all costs as I understand them are rooted in a long tradition in most (all?) cultures, if only for the survival of our species and our lineage. But haven\u2019t modern times shaken up these concepts enough to rid us of the constant pressure of fitting into the familial mold society enforces upon us? Is family as a concept outdated? In fact, isn\u2019t the mere fact one may adopt destroying our conception of family? \u2014 That is, taking a stranger with no biological relation to you as your own child, on the same exact level as a biological child. And if \u201cfamily\u201d can be so broadly defined as to include strangers, what does it mean? Is there even a signification to having a family if a sibling can become a stranger but a stranger can become a daughter? If, as some common usage suggests, we can call very close friends \u201cfamily,\u201d then is family an entirely subjective concept, coming to have a different meaning to any individual, and so being void of any a priori value?\nI launch these questions up in the air without any answers as I fail to really comprehend it all. Right now, I feel as though family strictly speaking is only hurtful insofar as, much like the American Dream, it is an unattainable ideal, the pursuit of which makes us suffer. And much like other normative concepts, our conception of family further marginalizes, victimizes, and stigmatizes individuals who are farthest from this ideal, usually for reasons that are entirely of their control. The more obvious forms of this are victims of incest and child abuse, who face even more difficulty in denouncing their perpetrators because of the notions of family that are embedded in society and in our legal systems. But they also makes it harder on a daily basis for those that were abandoned, orphaned, mistreated by relatives, reminded of their pain day to day from the age of 5 by the simple questions of \u201cwhat do your parents do?\u201d that follow us until death, and having to either lie or create a malaise, and by the recurring holidays from Mother\u2019s Day to Christmas and Thanksgiving in which society forces guilt upon us for not loving our family enough or not being thankful for having relatives who treat us poorly.\nMay 18, 2016 June 17, 2016 Dr. Krabby\t1 Comment\nIs Silence but an Insidious Form of Victim Shaming?\nI have come to be more interested in the concept of victim shaming in the last year, because of an abusive relationship I was part of, and more specifically in the aftermath of it. I was always quite acutely aware of the concept of victim shaming and actively tried to avoid perpetrating it, but some reflection led me to consider, on the one hand, victim-shaming as a very blurry concept, and on the other, as all the more important to reflect upon and avoid. In fact, the aftermath of trauma can be even more traumatic than the trauma itself, if only because of the permanent stigma that one must bear as a victim.\nHaving opened up to a few friends about the events surrounding my relationship, I\u2019ve come across a surprisingly wide variety of reactions, though I am sure not a single one of my friend would consider himself or herself a victim shamer. Would I agree? I don\u2019t know, hence this discussion. Can one person both support and ostracize you for being a victim? This is in my experience not only possible, but frequent.\nIt has been about a year since the end of this relationship, and I have lamented the reaction of many of our common friends to our abusive relationship. Let us be clear: domestic violence is a crime in legal terms, which makes my ex a criminal, and which makes me a victim. There is no room for discussion here. Many would feel bad, sorry for me, and then act normally with my ex.\nAnother instance of possible victim shaming happened to a friend of mine who works in the same department at the same university as I. Let us call her Justine. A tenured professor, let us call her Professor Y (because Professor X is amazing and I wouldn\u2019t wanna soil his name) sent an email to all graduate students asking for their input on things to improve, flaws of the department, and such. Said professor collected the answers, and sent out an email to all students and faculty containing responses to the supposedly confidential survey, as well as adding denigrating comments of her own \u2013 \u201cthe grad students are saying stupidities again, those lazy bums.\u201d In fact, as we learned later, she used the wrong email list, she meant to send this only to other faculty members. And so, Justine took matter into her own hands, called Professor Y, told her off. Professor Y hung up on her. Justine went to her office, told her off again. A few days later, Professor Y had flowers and chocolate sent to Justine\u2019s apartment, along with an apology. Long story short, Justine is clearly the victim here, even Prof Y admits it. The issue is, where does victim shaming begin? All students and faculty know of Justine\u2019s reaction. Do they think she\u2019s justified? Probably. Do they support her? In silence, at best.\nIn fact, many students have come up to Justine personally to thank her, though none have spoken up publicly. No faculty members have said anything in favour or not. Let us remember that the only reason why this professor got caught is because she used the wrong email list. Is it in the culture of this department to look down on graduate students? Do they insult us amongst each other? It might be an isolated event, but chances are it is not, logically. But that remains ebtirely hypothetical, I do have too much respect for many faculty members to generalize. But I\u2019m digressing.\nThe point is, Justine has confided being worried about the opinion the department has of her now. It is not well received when someone files in a complaint about a colleague, no matter how objectively right they are. And academia, much like any business, is a world in which word gets around, and she fears for her future not only as a PhD student, but as an eventual job-seeking alumni. Though most of her peers respect and support her actions, none of them dares do anything more than tell her so privately for their own sake.\nI can draw too many links here with my own situation as a victim of domestic abuse. Everyone who talked to me in private were supportive at best, dismissive or pitiful at worst. But in public, not one of them spoke up, even when the abuse took place in front of their eyes. Months later, I am now the one who has been indirectly ostracized from this group of friends as a result for having been the victim of a criminal act by one of its members. The contexts are largely different, and drawing parallels between all situations of abuse is always shaky at best, though the common denominator in these cases is that silence appears to me as a way of victim shaming, largely speaking. It might not be outright or explicit, but the effect is the same : the victim is isolated, shamed, and stigmatized.\nSugar Sammy-isms and Quebec Society\nI should preface this by stating my ambivalence towards Quebec separatism, not so much because of ignorance or lack of interest (I do care very much), but because either stance seems like a fight about containers instead of content \u2014 I would, for instance, prefer living under Fran\u00e7oise David\u2019s party than Stephen Harper\u2019s, but Elizabeth May\u2019s rather than Philippe Couillard\u2019s. I feel as though the (anti)separatist fight only contributes to the same void that sucks all of your energy and only reinforces, naturalizes an apparent dichotomy within Quebec. Separatism separates, no matter if you\u2019re for it or against it, while I\u2019ve always been one to promote unity through diversity \u2014 whether that\u2019s in Quebec or in Canada does matter, but it isn\u2019t the channel I\u2019m personally choosing to pursue. Identity politics are tiring fights.\nThat is not to say that it\u2019s not a cause worth fighting for, I do encourage my separatist and antiseparatist fellow Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois to fight for what they believe in, and to keep seeing the value in this fight \u2014 and through it, a province worth fighting for. However, some of the rhetoric used really, really bothers me. It is often through snarky comments that people reinforce their position, adopting a condescension, a \u201cwe\u2019re just irreconcilably different\u201d stance, creating a space in which this polarizing political division insidiously pervades all other elements of culture, identity, politics, and psychology.\nI would particularly like to address Sugar Sammy, prominent figure who markets his position on this debate, in a cheap way to not only make such people who feel strongly about antiseparatism as though this humour is \u201cfor them,\u201d but also for the other camp, who enjoys this type of masochistic humour targeted at them, to be the butt of his jokes, or to find some fuel to their position, leaving his shows with an even stronger separatist drive.\nUltimately though, it seems as though the political ideology he promotes (and many antiseparatists promote) is counter-productive: by constantly bringing the idea of separatism back on the table, in the current context in which even the main political proponent of it has largely abandoned it, he instills (they instill) life into it. They maliciously keep it alive to keep hurting it, to watch it suffer. He not only reminds separatists they are separatists, and gives them (makes up) reasons to fight in order to make money, but he also reaffirms antiseparatists in their position, ultimately rooting both camps firmly in what he markets as irreconcilable beliefs. It is particularly counterproductive for antiseparatists namely because of their \u201canti\u201d stance: they emphasize an issue which is not one, only creating more separatists through provocative, snarky, condescending statements. They poke at a caged sleeping monster just to watch it scream. It is indeed twisted, and I would find some sad yet funny irony if it backfired decades down the road, with a combination of elements, and the separatists that antiseparatists created ended up legitimately reanimating the separatist movement only because of their paradoxical discourse. Of course, I cannot help but see that Sugar Sammy (my scapegoat) does it as a marketing strategy, which works extremely well (his stance is what almost solely led to his current success and fame), and which is further emphasized in Ces gars-l\u00e0, a humouristic series where many one-liners are centred on his antiseparatism. I could write longer on the capitalistic drive behind his position, and the classist aspect to the issues he creates, but that would deserve specific attention. What I focused on in this reflection is that such snarky antiseparatist discourse actually creates much of current day separatism, which is entirely counterproductive and, in my opinion, rooted in some twisted desire to watch your enemies suffer, and constantly reframing them as enemies.",

        "raw_content": "In 2016, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) sponsored the report \u201cConvergence: The Future of Health,\u201d detailing the importance of the Convergence in Healthcare movement to the future of medical research in the United States. The report defines convergence as the result of \u201csharing of methods and ideas by chemists, physicists, computer scientists, engineers, mathematicians and life scientists across multiple fields and industries\u201d and \u201ca broad effort across the sciences.\u201d\nConvergence can be applied to many areas of development, including the production of new food sources to feed a growing population, clean energy and more effective environmental protections. However, the MIT report focuses on the importance of convergence in relation to healthcare and medicine. Support for this initiative is especially crucial in a time where there is a rising need for the treatment of pressing global health problems.\nThe report identifies four Convergence in Healthcare strategies leading academics believe best illustrate the potential of the movement. These strategies are nanotechnology, regenerative engineering and medicine, Big Data and health IT and imaging. Listed below is a short outline of why each area is considered a promising part of the Convergence in Healthcare movement.\nThe U.S. government\u2019s National Nanotechnology Initiative defines nanotechnology as \u201cscience, engineering and technology conducted at the nanoscale, which is about 1 to 100 nanometers.\u201d Such miniature tools and technologies are small enough for use within the human body; they are even capable of being transported throughout the body via the bloodstream. One of the most promising convergent uses for nanotechnology is for drug therapy delivery to the site of cancer in the body. Researchers are also exploring the possibility of designing \u201csmart\u201d nanoparticles to automatically interact with each other to deliver multiple drug therapies in a specific sequence to disengage cancer cell activity.\nNanotechnology as a Convergence in Healthcare strategy also has significant potential for treating illnesses of the brain. When paired with other life science concepts, research has shown nanotechnology may be used to pass drug therapies efficiently through the blood-brain barrier to target specific brain diseases in ways that current therapies cannot.\nRegenerative Engineering and Medicine\nThe discipline of regenerative engineering and medicine is broad. It includes treating patients who have experienced traumatic medical events such as limb loss as well as those who require organ transplants. According to the nonprofit Amputee Coalition, almost 200,000 Americans undergo amputations annually. The government\u2019s organ donation website notes more than 116,000 American adults and children are currently listed on the transplant waiting list. While these two patient groups differ in their needs, both require replacement of specific, individual tissues. Regenerative medicine, bolstered by convergent research, could address both medical issues.\nConvergence in Healthcare has led to promising developments in this area of medicine. This includes bioprinting using adult stem cells, developing matrices that allow for more effective healing of torn ligaments and tendons, and even growing whole organs using a patient\u2019s own cells.\nBeyond the need to find innovative ways to replace whole organs, convergent research has also led to research on a partial transplant technique. Scientists would be able to extract healthy cells from a patient\u2019s ailing organ, encourage cell growth, and then implant the cells into a pig kidney that has been cleared of all the animal cells. A portion of the newly-infused kidney could be sliced off and implanted into the patient\u2019s failing kidney. The body would recognize the transplant as its own, and organ function would improve immediately.\nBig Data and health IT\nIT, smart devices and computer software have a significant impact on many industries outside of medicine. Convergence in Healthcare aims to leverage some of these innovations to help the medical community learn more about the human body and provide patients with more comprehensive care.\nThe most exciting convergent opportunity in Big Data and health IT is the prospect of consumer-focused health IT to gather significant amounts of active and passive patient data on a mass scale through wearables. Wearables could be used to track blood sugar levels, physical activity and dietary choices along with collecting information on environmental health quality, heart rhythm and blood pressure in large numbers of people.\nScientists could then use Big Data processing and machine learning to find more effective methods for identifying different forms of diseases, or even learn to identify predictors of disease in patients who are currently healthy. In this way, Convergence in Healthcare could lead to major advances in public health as a whole.\nImaging\u2019s importance in healthcare has been evident since the late 19th century, when the X-ray was invented, inciting the first revolution in life sciences. Imaging allows medical professionals to more precisely assess patient health issues and provide the best possible treatment. Imaging also plays a crucial role in allowing medical professionals to understand the inner workings of the human body, enabling more accurate and useful research.\nEven now, medical researchers are learning new things about the inside of the human body. For example, the discovery of a new system of vessels in the brain was profiled in The Atlantic in late 2017. Additionally, according to a new study published in March 2018, New York University researchers believe they have discovered a previously undetected organ within the brain.\nUltimately, the better the imaging tools used by medical researchers to see inside the human body, the more effective treatment can become. Convergent principles have already led to new developments in the areas of molecular, whole-organ and whole-body imaging. Further work in this area will allow researchers to study complex bodily functions, from the macro to the micro level, in pursuit of the best possible treatment for complex diseases.\n\u2190 This is What You Need to Know about Three Global Health Problems Addressed by Convergence in Healthcare\nFive Things to Know about the BRAIN Initiative \u2192",

With his trusty droids and smuggler Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Skywalker must also destroy the Galactic Empire's all-powerful weapon: the Death Star. George Lucas cemented his status as a pop-culture legend with this classic battle between good and evil.\nMark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, James Earl Jones, Peter Cushing, Alec Guinness, Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker, Peter Mayhew, David Prowse\nEnglish: Dolby Digital 5.1, English: Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround, Spanish (Neutral): Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround, French: Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround\nEnglish: DTS 6.1 Surround Sound, English DVS: Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish (Neutral): Dolby Digital 5.1, French: DTS 5.1 Surround, Portuguese: Dolby Digital 5.1, English: DVS - Descriptive Video Service\nParents need to know that A New Hope is a classic 1977 sci-fi action blockbuster that may be more frightening than you recall. The central villain, Darth Vader, creates a menacing presence and engages in several acts of violence (threatening, choking). Another central character dies, though he just seems to disappear, and several minor characters die or are injured, though the images are brief or non-graphic. There are also a few instances of mild language, specifically \"damn\" and \"hell,\" plus plenty of insults. Some families may take issue with the film's spiritual philosophies built around \"the Force\" as the central tenet of existence in the universe. For kids of the right age, this movie is an unforgettable ride through a vast galaxy of imaginative concepts and characters. Of the films in the Star Wars series, this one offers the best and mildest balance of drama and action for younger viewers.\nMild flirting and crushes between male and female lead characters. The sexual content doesn't escalate beyond a single chaste kiss on the cheek \"for luck.\"\nThe film strings together a series of battles that feature heavy sci-fi violence, including lasers and the film's version of swords (lightsabers). There are some brief images of burned bodies in the desert, pilots exploding while in the cockpits of their ships, an arm being severed (with blood), and the destruction of an entire planet seen from afar. The menacing central villain engages in a several acts of direct and indirect choking of other characters. Alien creatures vary in appearance; some some might appear scary to younger kids.\nMuch of the film's banter is based in mildly antagonistic relationships between characters, so there are frequent insults and one-liners bandied back and forth. Otherwise, there are a few instances of \"damn\" and \"hell.\"\nThe forces of good and evil are very clearly defined in the film. The story's positive messages include hard work paying off with results, the power of personal sacrifice in pursuit of a larger good, and accepting those who are different or difficult to get along with.\nNo real-world brands or products are featured in the film, since it takes place in another galaxy. But the movie created a template for movie merchandising that persists to this day. Decades after release, its characters are still immortalized in action figures, video games, and countless other products.\nCharacters visit an intergalactic cantina where otherworldly beverages are served and strange substances are smoked. But it has no visible parallel to anything available in reality.",

        "raw_content": "Amy Reeve 9 Nov 2018 12:23pm\nAccounting for Sustainability aims to inspire action by finance leaders to help protect the planet. Executive chairman Jessica Fries tells Amy Reeve about its message\nCaption: Photography by David Vintiner\nCan accountants save the world? The Prince\u2019s Accounting for Sustainability Project (A4S) has chosen a bold topic for its debut session at the World Congress of Accountants in Australia this month, the theme of which is \u201cglobal challenges, global leaders\u201d. A4S\u2019s executive chairman, chartered accountant Jessica Fries, explains: \u201cThe risks from environmental, social and economic crises are clear to see \u2013 not just for our planet and society, but also the future resilience of the global economy.\nFinance leadership and innovation are essential to the changes needed to tackle these risks, and to create the businesses of tomorrow.\u201d It\u2019s not the first time economia readers have been urged to contemplate how their leadership might help change the world. Peter Bakker, president and CEO of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, told attendees at a United Nations conference in Rio de Janeiro in 2013: \u201cAccountants will save the world.\u201d Writing in the Harvard Business Review later he added: \u201cI meant it. To get all businesses involved in solving the world\u2019s toughest problems, we must change the accounting rules.\u201d\nEndless growth is limited by the Earth\u2019s resources and comes at a huge price to the planet and to human wellbeing, wrote Jane Gleeson-White in Six Capitals or Can Accountants Save the Planet?. It\u2019s time to switch the focus to capitals other than wealth.\nHis Royal Highness the Prince of Wales established A4S in 2004 \u201cto help ensure that we are not battling to meet 21st century challenges with, at best, 20th century decision-making and reporting systems\u201d. Looking back, he was a pioneer, says Fries from her office at Clarence House, where at one point during our interview we can hear the Queen\u2019s Guard military band outside.\n\u201cThe Prince of Wales has been thinking about, talking about, and driving action on steps everyone can take to understand and tackle social and environmental issues so that society can sustain itself for the future. He was one of the first to put a spotlight on some of these issues \u2013 climate change, water scarcity, depletion of natural resources, inequality and demographic change \u2013 and is well versed in, and passionate about, the role accountants and the finance profession have in shaping the solutions.\u201d\nSpeaking at the A4S Summit in 2016, the Prince of Wales put it in a nutshell: \u201cIt is not necessarily a choice between making money on the one hand and \u2018doing the right thing\u2019 on the other. On the contrary, once it is recognised that \u2018business as usual\u2019 is unsustainable, it follows naturally that those organisations which start to develop resilient business models will be the ones that succeed.\nFries has worked for the Prince of Wales for a decade now \u2013 a long time for what was supposed to be a 12 to 18-month secondment from PwC, where she worked with clients in the oil and gas sector after studying economics at the University of Cambridge and the London School of Economics. But the project had been building momentum and was moving, organically, into what felt like a second phase of important work. Further leadership was required.\n\u201cA4S started as a reasonably short project, looking at a few key questions,\u201d explains Fries. \u201cBut some of the key stakeholders, including Michael Izza at ICAEW, had a discussion with His Royal Highness about moving the conversation towards reporting, which became a major focus when I came on board in 2008 as director, and led to the establishment of the Accounting Bodies Network and the International Integrated Reporting Council.\u201d\nThis particular focus on reporting was the result of the A4S team thinking there might be a silo mentality between the sustainability reporting community and the financial reporting community when in fact the two were interconnected. If they could bring stakeholders from those two spheres together, recalls Fries, perhaps they could transform financial decision-making and help create a more holistic form of reporting where business value wasn\u2019t just considered in financial terms.\nHaving the Prince of Wales as a figurehead naturally piqued interest, she says, but the support of the large global accounting firms, institutes and bodies via the ABN was invaluable and provided leverage for A4S to scale up. \u201cThe Prince of Wales has a unique ability to bring people from very diverse places together, and to help to forge new conversations,\u201d says Fries. The overall result was that players from the global reporting space really started to engage, collaborate and share best practice on how to create sustainable but, crucially, commercially viable business models.\nFries remains a member of the Council of the IIRC (Richard Howitt is the current CEO) and says integrated reporting continues to have \u201ca huge impact\u201d. \u201cA lot of my time is spent engaging with businesses and the investor community in different parts of the world and over the last 10 years integrated reporting has gained traction as a concept. In India, Japan, Brazil, the UK, Australia\u2026 there\u2019s a huge amount of progress. And it\u2019s not all big economies, there are conversations in, for example, Mauritius and Sri Lanka too.\u201d\nIn 2012 A4S reached another turning point. Reflecting on what they had managed to achieve, they put a question to the stakeholders: is it time to wrap the project up? \u201cThe message we got back very clearly was \u2018no\u2019,\u201d recalls Fries. \u201cReporting is fundamental but unless it is founded on an integrated approach, an integrated strategy within an organisation, you haven\u2019t got anything to report.\u201d\nMore work was required to encourage the finance community, including the capital markets community, to focus on how to embed social and environmental risk and opportunity into decision-making. So, using the sort of holistic approach it demands from others, A4S morphed again. \u201cThat led to the establishment of our CFO leadership network, which launched in 2013. We\u2019ve produced guidance material that takes CFOs of companies and other types of organisation through how to build environmental and social issues into the heart of the strategic process.\nUnderstanding risk, capital investment, budgeting, all the nuts and bolts of finance, which are fundamental to the kind of outcomes that are achieved.\u201d You\u2019ll have noticed Fries places as much emphasis on social as she does environmental sustainability. What does that mean? \u201cIt\u2019s very important to have that holistic approach,\u201d she explains. \u201cIf you ignore your employees or your customers or your communities then you\u2019re really not going to be leveraging your key assets.\nOr creating a broader positive impact,\u201d she adds. \u201cYou\u2019re increasingly seeing a focus on understanding and wanting to measure and enhance some of those positive impacts and mitigate any negative ones.\u201d In the environmental space, adds Fries, many more people have recognised that \u201cin certain areas there are some very finite limits. It might be an area like climate change, and our rapidly diminishing carbon budget, and trying to think about how you shift, how you transition, to a net zero world, which is fairly radical.\u201d\nCould it be too radical for some of the smaller businesses and organisations, which don\u2019t have the deep pockets of a Unilever or a pension fund? It\u2019s easy to talk about risk, says Fries, but equally important to think about the opportunity and innovation in a circular economy and finding solutions to the world\u2019s problems. \u201cThe Business and Sustainable Development Commission analysed the opportunities that might exist around the UN\u2019s Sustainable Development Goals and identified $12trn of market opportunities,\u201d she says. \u201cThe scale is huge.\u201d\nIn fact, she adds, many smaller organisations tend to create long-term sustainable value as a matter of course because it\u2019s basic good business practice. She explains: \u201cHaving a joined-up holistic approach is in many cases just the natural thing to do \u2013 things like managing resources efficiently. Small businesses are often rooted in their local community, so naturally they look after their employees and think about how they work with their community. Everyone has a vital role to play.\u201d\nFries has seen this for herself through the Finance for the Future awards, which A4S runs in partnership with ICAEW and, more recently, Deloitte. She says innovation and ideas come from a spectrum of businesses and organisations, large to small, and often \u201caround areas like climate change, where there\u2019s a real urgency and need to act\u201d.\nShortly after WCOA, which Fries sees as an opportunity to celebrate the ABN\u2019s 10th anniversary and also look at what the next 10 years might hold, it\u2019s the Prince of Wales\u2019s 70th birthday. Excited by these milestones, her team is nevertheless aware that there is still work to be done. She says it\u2019s \u201cvery hard\u201d to draw a direct link between the failure of corporate reporting and the financial crisis, because that event had a range of different drivers.\n\u201cThat said, I do think organisations that really embrace the kind of thinking that underpins integrated reporting (recognising dependence on things like social, human and natural capital, as well as financial capital) are more resilient, really thinking ahead and looking at the risks and opportunities faced, and positioning themselves for the future.\u201d The approach that management is adopting should be questioned, she says, as well as the sustainability of the business model, \u201cwhich is at the heart of integrated reporting.\nIt\u2019s never going to be the whole answer but it\u2019s an important part of the solution.\u201d As the Prince of Wales said at the A4S finance leaders\u2019 summit in July 2018: \u201cIt can be all too easy to forget the basic truth that no economy can thrive indefinitely without a stable society and a healthy, natural base to sustain it. All financial capital ultimately relies entirely on the natural and of course social capital assets that underpin its existence and enable it to grow. We seem to have forgotten this somewhat \u2018inconvenient truth\u2019 and will pay dearly for it unless we change our ways.\"",

        "raw_content": "What if almost everything we think we know about diet and exercise is wrong?\nThe farther into this journey toward health and fitness\u2014and away from couch potato\u2014I get, the more I think this is true.\nWe\u2019re given this idea that if a person is fat, it is due to a lack of willpower. And many of us have internalized the idea that we weigh too much because we just aren\u2019t good enough at self-discipline especially\u2014but we also think we aren\u2019t good enough about getting started early; about what kind of exercise to pick; about follow-through and consistency. We are convinced we are not good enough, and that\u2019s a big reason we fail.\nI don\u2019t know about you, but I fail often and spectacularly. I try to keep every failure and perceived failure as a learning experience and not a negative in my life, but this is often difficult.\nI keep coming back around to compulsive eating\u2014another area that conventional wisdom tells me I simply lack self-control. And that\u2019s exactly what compulsive eating feels like, being totally out of control around food, especially certain kinds of food (sugar) and at certain times of the day.\nI\u2019ve tried every approach I can think of: portion control and counting calories, which works great right up until it doesn\u2019t; being mindful, and eating only when I am hungry and only until I am full; preparing meals ahead of time to take guesswork and stress purchases out; beating myself up about how weak I am\u2014every approach at some level comes back to willpower.\nBut compulsive eating is far more complicated than simple self-control issues. In my case, it\u2019s far more like addiction than anything else. In being addicted to something like cigarettes, it\u2019s easy to say to myself that I need to quit because they are bad for me, but a person can\u2019t really quit food.\nThat leaves everything I eat in the realm of \u201cgood food\u201d or \u201cbad food.\u201d\nGood food is homemade whole food and bad food is super-processed junk food, high in sugar, salt and saturated fat. There is a qualitative difference. But compulsive eating is more devious than just \u201ceat this, not that.\u201d It\u2019s entirely possible to eat way too much of perfectly healthy, nutritious food.\nThe mental gymnastics I\u2019m engaging in is to try and flip the whole paradigm on its head: Eating nutritious food and getting plenty of exercise\u2014along with daily time for ritual and prayer\u2014is all part of nurturing and caring for myself the best way I know how.\nWhen I was younger, and chasing around a passel of kids, I always had a ready-made excuse of why I couldn\u2019t put self-care on my list. There were too many people I was caring for already, and I didn\u2019t have the time. That\u2019s the story I told myself, anyway.\nNow I\u2019m an empty nester, with no one left to take care of except for myself. It should be easy now, right? Except it\u2019s just as hard as it ever was. Compulsive eating is all wrapped up in childhood trauma and PTSD with the rest of my addiction issues.\nHere is what I know: Exercise can help with the physical symptoms of PTSD. Specifically exercise can \u201cburn off\u201d some of those bad feelings. Not only that, but exercise makes me feel good, physically and emotionally. It makes me smile and it makes me feel happy.\nEvery day in my email inbox I\u2019m pelted by dozens of messages like these: \u201c7 Moves To Tighten Your Tush,\u201d \u201c5 Moves For A Better Butt By Valentine\u2019s Day,\u201d \u201c7 Things You Should Never Put In A Salad If You Want To Lose Weight,\u201d \u201c5 Teas You Should Sip For Their Health Benefits,\u201d or \u201c365 Days of Slimming Secrets, Health Tips And Motivation!\u201d\nIt is a paradox to say that my health and fitness is 100 percent in my own hands (it is), and yet to feel that my health and fitness goals are out of my control. Anyone who has ever felt powerless in the face of a box of donuts knows what I mean. And that \u201cpowerlessness\u201d circles right back around to beating ourselves up and thinking we\u2019re not good enough, or not strong enough mentally or emotionally, to do what needs to be done in the face of a box of donuts, namely, not eating the whole damn thing.\nHere\u2019s another paradox: I have two grandsons, both pretty young. I restrict their sugar and do everything I can to encourage them to get exercise, whether that\u2019s playing outside or lifting weights with their grandma. I do this because I care about their health and I want them to internalize the idea that exercise is fun. But when it comes to my own health and wellbeing, I let my standards slide. I tell myself that I can skip a workout or 100 without consequence or that I can eat cake for dinner if I want. Then when I skip 100 workouts and eat cake for dinner, I loop right back around to beating myself up for falling prey once again to my own addictive personality. It can be maddening.\nEvery day I strive to learn a little more. What I\u2019m learning lately is that maybe the spiritual aspect needs to come first. Maybe there is strength to be accessed through prayer and ritual that I\u2019m not tapping into yet, or fully. Maybe I am good enough at all of this to figure it out.\nWhat is your health and fitness Achilles\u2019 heel? Contact me at 505-286-1212 or leota@lobo.net, or find my group on Facebook, \u201cI\u2019m Losing It!\u201d I\u2019d love to hear your strategies.",

This might sound strange, but I think there are few plants that look quite as tasty as a tulip (and the petals can make great garnishes!).\nWhy a Cordless Vacuum is an Essential Purchase for Food Lovers\nA messy kitchen is the sign of a good cook!\nHave you ever heard that expression? I think there's a lot of truth to it. Cooking isn't a clean and tidy business. You need to be willing to get a bit messy if you want to cook things in a reasonable amount of time.\nOf course, the clean-up afterwards is one of the main downsides of cooking. It's disheartening to spend a couple of hours slaving away to cook the perfect roast, only to realise you've got another hour of washing up before you can relax!\nThat's why I'm always looking for ways to decrease cleaning up time after one of my very messy cooking sessions. There are a few things that have helped:\nBuying a dishwasher. For years I didn't have one, but since getting one I think I love it more than any human.\nDoing washing up as I go. If it's a recipe that has some downtime, I do as much washing up as I can so there isn't as much at the end.\nProperly lining and greasing trays. It can take a lot of scrubbing and hard work if part of your meal catches on a baking tray or pan. Avoid that by using non-stick products and being careful to properly grease them (your food will taste much better too). This is especially important for baking - BHG have a good guide here.\nThese have all helped, but buying a cordless vacuum cleaner has also decreased the stress of cleaning after cooking.\nI had no idea cordless hoovers existed until a few months ago, when I stumbled across this guide. The article explains all the benefits of a cordless hoover - such as extra convenience - and I instantly realised I needed to get one for the kitchen.\nIn the end, I decided to go for the Dyson DC44 Animal, which I absolutely love. Now instead of constantly sweeping up onion peel, breadcrumbs and who knows what else when I'm cooking, I just have the Dyson next to me at all times. It's also great for getting down the side of the fridge as it's a stick model - a common spot for my extra food to get caught.\nI will say one thing though: I don't think cordless vacuums are the future until they can sort the battery life out. I'm happy with getting 20 minutes of use before needing to recharge, as I mainly use it for kitchen spills and other small things (maybe some models have a longer life?). I don't see how anyone could replace their main vacuum though - I spend a lot of time cleaning my home and I would keep needing to recharge it.\nSo there you have it - my tip for the day when it comes to cleaning your messy kitchen. I hope it helps!\n9 Nov 2016 23:30:30 | Kitchen Ideas\nMy Struggles with Food and Exercise - And How I Solved Them\nI'm going to get on with posting my favourite recipes SOON (look out for the post on a gorgeous curry that's always a family favourite), but for this post I wanted to talk about something I've always struggled with: fitness.\nSee, there's nothing I love more than food. I enjoy everything from a Big Mac and chips right up to Michelin Star restaurants, and I wouldn't stop eating if that was an option. The problem is that I also want to take care of my body.\nThat's why I've always had a constant battle between enjoying my favourite hobby (because that's what food is to me, and I suspect to you too if you're reading this blog) and remaining healthy.\nI admit that I haven't solved this completely yet - but I've picked up a few tips along the way. Here's how I manage to enjoy food without feeling guilty, yet remaining a reasonably respectable weight:\nMake exercise a daily part of your routine. Sounds simple doesn't it? But we all know it's hard to exercise daily. And by exercise, I mean the kind that gets your heart pumping and your body sweating - walking or yoga doesn't count (not that they aren't good for you). I tried almost every type of exercise - swimming, weight lifting, running - but the thing that I managed to stick to was using a cross trainer. I bought a York Cross Trainer (which I love) and exercise for a minimum of 20 minutes with it each day. It's low impact too, which is great for the joints.\nCut out the mindless eating. Each day I have a direct choice - mindlessly eat snacks (I'm a sucker for biscuits) and then feel guilty when it comes to eating meals, or avoid junk food altogether when at home so I can enjoy the meals I cook. When it's put like that, there isn't really a choice at all.\nDon't obsess about weight. I used to weigh myself at least twice a week. Now I probably check my weight once per month. It's just as accurate and a lot less stressful. If I've gained, I just up the exercise and try to reduce my intake.\nReduce portion sizes. This is a hard one - but vital! I used to eat huge portions, so it's no wonder I got quite \"large\" at times. Now I try to serve myself small portions, but savour every bite.\nHere's the bottom line: if you're a foodie like me, \"dieting\" isn't an option. So do more exercise, cut out needless calories, reduce your portion sizes...and enjoy your food!\n27 Oct 2016 07:39:27 | Everything Else\nWelcome to The Edible Tulip!\nThis site is about everything related to food. That includes recipes, restaurant reviews, kitchen ideas and tips, and much more.\nI love food - I would eat all day if I could (I hold back for health reasons!). So when I do get a chance to eat, I like to make the most of it. While I'm not a professional cook, I hope to be one day, so this site is about everything I'm up to - it'll also serve as a kind of \"portfolio\" in the future.\nI'm not going to stick to a regular posting schedule as I'm quite busy - but I'll post whenever i have something interesting.\nLook out for the first post soon!\nJames: One of the edible tulip recipe: Guacamole - Sup... | more \u00bb\nOn Welcome to The Edible Tulip!",

She currently works as a Navigator for EdNavigator, a nonprofit organization that partners with employers to help families keep kids on track from pre-K to college. Full profile \u2192\n\u201cHi! I\u2019m Ra\u2019Son\u2019s mom, Ramie, nice to meet you.\u201d\nIt\u2019s the same sentence I\u2019ve uttered every August for the last four years, the same one my daughter\u2019s teachers have heard from hundreds of other parents. But what they don\u2019t know (yet) is that I\u2019m a different kind of parent. I\u2019m a \u201chelicopter\u201d parent. And that means we are going to get to know each other. Really well.\nThe history of my helicoptering goes back to my daughter\u2019s pre-kindergarten days. While Ra\u2019Son was in pre-k, her teacher and I exchanged notes every day. She was genuinely concerned about the education of my child. She knew I was anxious and attempted to make things easier by being proactive in our conversations. I appreciated her directness and honesty when I had questions. While this was part of her class structure, it set the parent/teacher-engagement bar high for future teachers.\nHer kindergarten teacher was very different. My impression was that she was burnt out. We didn\u2019t communicate daily, and she often gave one-word responses to my questions. She avoided parent-teacher conferences unless she got pressure from the principal. One time, when Ra\u2019Son was confused about her homework, I asked her teacher how a lesson was presented in class (so I could use similar vocabulary or methods at home). She told me that if my daughter didn\u2019t learn it in class then I shouldn\u2019t have a problem teaching it to her myself. Every day, I worried about what Ra\u2019Son was or wasn\u2019t learning. Thankfully for other families, the teacher moved on after that year.\nSince then, I\u2019ve encountered a range of engagement styles. Her first-grade teacher was super engaged with the parents, but not so much with the students. Then I absolutely loved her second-grade teacher, who welcomed new ideas and explicitly told parents how we could support her during the week on the homework sheet. I would have paid her salary myself, if I could have, to convince her to teach third grade.\nBecause my experience was so inconsistent, I felt like I had to be involved and on top of things all the time. It didn\u2019t help that my field of work was also education. That only made me that much more aware of how important Ra\u2019Son\u2019s experience in school was. As a former school counselor, I worried that she would somehow end up like some of the students I worked with previously\u2014behind in school, pregnant, in jail or even worse\u2014dead.\nMy work and life experiences taught me that I had to be heavily involved\u2014no immersed\u2014in my child\u2019s life to ensure that she would have all the necessary skills to be a well-rounded, successful adult.\nFor one thing, I ask questions. A lot of questions. I ask about the quality of instruction. I ask for clarification on homework or about general school observations. I\u2019m highly engaged. I attend virtually every meeting and parent-teacher conference. I verify her teacher\u2019s certification every year. I have links to resources that will help me understand what she is supposed to be learning. I know all about what Ra\u2019Son is doing and what\u2019s happening at school. If she\u2019s getting off track, you know I\u2019ll be on it.\nMy attention to her school also extends beyond her. If another parent has a school-related question, there\u2019s a good chance I\u2019ll know the answer. If you want to know what other parents are really thinking, you know you\u2019ll hear the truth from me. And if you\u2019re doing right by my daughter, I will be behind you all the way. If not, bless your heart.\nThe thing is, with helicopter parenting, there are pros and cons. In terms of pros, I\u2019ve been lucky enough to have jobs that allow me the flexibility to tend to my child\u2019s life both academically and culturally. There are times when her school provides me with information before I get a chance to ask simply because they know I\u2019m going to ask. I get a call when my daughter leaves her glasses at home. They know my family so well that we have an understanding on a number of common occurrences. And I feel sure that my daughter will get the education she needs\u2014because I\u2019m making sure of it.\nOn the other hand, it\u2019s exhausting. I can\u2019t calculate the number of hours I\u2019ve spent researching best practices by grade level, printing enrichment materials, going to meetings, and so much more. Being at the school so frequently might seem like a plus, but I know it can also feel like I\u2019m intruding or being overbearing. It\u2019s a lot for my daughter, too. I worry sometimes that I\u2019m not giving her as much space as she needs to make mistakes and grow. And I worry that other students at her school may not get the same attention she does, because their parents aren\u2019t as hyper-focused as I am.\nThe truth is, I don\u2019t want to be a helicopter parent.\nI\u2019d rather be more like a drone\u2014quieter, smaller and less intrusive. I still want to visit my child\u2019s school regularly, but more by invitation, with specific times and reasons to visit. I want to be able to allow my child the room to put into practice all that we\u2019ve taught her and to make mistakes while it\u2019s still safe to do so. I want Ra\u2019Son\u2019s teachers and school staff to think of me as a useful partner, not a squeaky wheel.\nOne of the biggest ways that schools and teachers could help reduce helicoptering would be by communicating a lot more clearly and consistently with parents\u2014about what\u2019s going on at school, about what our children are learning and how they\u2019re progressing, about how we can help at home. Then we might not worry so much or feel the need to hover so close. My school has gotten a lot better about this and I\u2019ve found my own ways to get the information I need, but what about other parents?\nI know shifting from a helicopter parent to a drone parent will take work. I\u2019m ready to do my part and take a step back. My question is, are schools ready to step forward?\nAn original version of this post appeared on EdNavigator as Confessions of a Helicopter Mom.\nPhoto by Daniela, CC-licensed.\nBetter Conversation, Black Voices, Crossposts, Ed Navigator, New Orleans, parent, parent engagement, Parent Involvement, Parent Voice, Parent-Teacher Conferences, Rameisha Johnson\nListen to Parents, Even When You Don't Feel Like It\nThe Snowball Effect of Opting Out\nA Back-to-School Love Letter to Parents of Kids With Special Needs and Disabilities",

While strictly speaking, entropy is a measure rather than a construct; it has been understood in more metaphorical colloquial ways and has been applied to concepts within the social sciences, such as education. One of the primary negentropic forces in today's university is the enrollment increases that online classes bring as a form of order and integration.

        "raw_content": "Common Mistakes To Avoid When Booking A Hotel\nBooking a hotel may seem to be a pretty straightforward process, right? In most situations it is, you select your destination, dates you will be there and enter your payment information. However, there are some issues that may arise when it comes to booking your Park City lodging. From choosing the wrong dates, to not checking some essential information, these seemingly small mistakes may wind up causing your trip to be a complete disaster. When you book any hotel room, be sure to avoid the following, common, mistakes.\nAlways Having Expectations of the Best Room\nAccording to hotel insiders, you will get the best rooms when you are willing to pay full price. Many times, if you book your stay through a discount site, you will have whatever is left when it comes to the rooms. While this may not be the case with every single hotel, chances are you will get a quality room when you join a hotel loyalty program, and the best part is that these are usually free.\nExpecting all Your Requests to Be Granted\nWhen you book your hotel online, you will likely have a number of options, or be able to add comments in reference to your stay. However, if you were to read all the fine print on the page, chances are you would also come to find out that the requests you make are not guaranteed.\nThe good news is that if your requests are not granted, talking with the front desk staff may be able to help you get the change that you need. It is also a good idea to call ahead before you actually arrive to see if your requests have been granted, especially if you made some for medical or health purposes.\nUsing Arrival or Departure Dates that are Not Right\nIf you book on the wrong dates, you may wind up having to pay for days that you are not only going to be at the hotel. The best way to avoid this issue is to simply double check all your information prior to submitting your payment.\nWhen you take the time to avoid these mistakes, you can have a much more pleasant trip that includes accommodations that are comfortable and that you actually want to stay in. There are secrets of the industry that many don\u2019t know, doing some research may be well worth the time and effort.",

And, more small business owners than ever are looking online\u2014with online lenders providing an estimated $7.9 billion in small business loans last year. According to Morgan Stanley, that\u2019s up 68 percent from 2014.\nTraditional financing at the local bank is still a good option for many small business owners, but for those who need capital quickly, find that the longer terms typically associated with a traditional business loan from the bank just don\u2019t make sense for a given need, and/or might not qualify at the bank, there are short-term financing options that make access to capital easier and more practical than ever before.\nMarc Prosser of FitSmallBusiness.com, recently named OnDeck the \u201cBest Short-Term Loan Provider for Small Business.\u201d Here\u2019s what he had to say:\n\u201cOnDeck is friendly toward a wide range of brick and mortar and online/e-commerce businesses, even ones that banks tend not to lend to, such as restaurants, nail salons, and auto-body shops.\u201d\nNot very long ago, other than the local bank, there weren\u2019t many options when a business owner needed extra capital. There are more options today than ever before, including Ondeck, which has put over $3 billion into the hands of small business owners since we opened our doors in 2007. We may be a little biased, but helping small businesses grow and thrive is something we take very seriously, and it doesn\u2019t hurt to occasionally get a little recognition from someone like FitSmallBusiness.\nClick HERE to read more about short-term business loans and HERE if you\u2019d like to apply for a small business loan from OnDeck.\nNext: 5 Questions With\u2026Modwalls\u2019s Rebecca Lonergan",

        "title": "Should You Sell Your Goods at a Flea Market or Crafts Fair? - Canada OnDeck site",
        "raw_content": "Should You Sell Your Goods at a Flea Market or Crafts Fair?\nHandmade crafts are enjoying a heyday in the U.S. Etsy is seeing $2 billion in sales a year, which may soon be eclipsed by the fast-growing newcomer, Amazon Handmade. And brick-and-mortar markets are seeing a similar rise in interest. More and more consumers want unique handmade or vintage goods that display high-quality workmanship, and offer an alternative to mass-market chain stores.\nSo if you\u2019re a talented craftsperson or an avid curator of vintage goods, and you\u2019re currently either running a small business or thinking of opening one, the following question may have crossed your mind: \u201cShould I spend the time and money to become a crafts or flea market vendor?\u201d\nHere is an overview of the upsides and downsides of operating your own booth or table at a market, so you can weigh them and arrive at the right answer for you.\nOnce you pick the right fair or market for you, it\u2019s relatively easy to get your business up and running. You\u2019ll need transit for yourself and your merchandise, a table, possibly a tent for outdoor markets, a cash box and transaction software such as Square. You\u2019ll also need to pay a booth rental fee to the market\u2019s organizer. These fees vary quite a bit depending on your location. One of the most high-traffic markets in the country, Brooklyn Flea, charges $150 per day or $1,200 per month. Check your local event listings to see which markets are in your area, and then call them to compare prices for vendors.\nFor most crafts and flea market vendors, the point is more in the passion and enjoyment rather than the cash, but you can bring in new income through your booth or table. The amount you can expect to bring in per weekend or day depends on your location and the type of merchandise you\u2019re selling. After paying rental fees and other expenses, many flea market vendors make between $200 and $500 per day. Meanwhile, many crafts fair vendors make upwards of $1,000 per day.\nBuild Your Brand Organically\nIf you look at the people behind many successful crafts or vintage brands, their origin stories more often than not involve selling their wares at local markets. Putting your merchandise out there gives people in your community a chance to see it, and love it. Think of it as a chance to use your booth as a barometer for the rest of the retail market. You can also test new products, perfect your goods, and ensure that what you\u2019re offering is well catered to what your customers want.\nLong-term Doors May Open\nThere\u2019s always the possibility that your hobby or side business could blossom into a full-time venture. It may take some time, but this path has been the origin story for many successful crafts entrepreneurs. Your booth or table gives you a chance to develop regular customers who would be willing to follow you should you decide to expand (so be sure to keep their contact information on file). Plus it\u2019s a great chance to socialize and network with visitors and other sellers, build relationships, and share ideas.\nIt may be fun to knit sweaters or create earrings for friends and family, but once you open the door to the outside world, you\u2019ll need to be prepared to meet the demand. There\u2019s also the matter of giving up chunks of your time manning your booth, handling the logistics (described below) and more. Before you leap in, look at your schedule and make some educated choices about whether you\u2019re able to commit the time and energy to becoming a vendor.\nFinding Your Market\nKnowing what to sell, and where to sell it is a skill that many entrepreneurs learn the hard way. You don\u2019t need a business degree to run a successful booth, but before you get started it\u2019s a good idea to write a business plan outlining the products you will carry, your sources of inventory, your competitive strategy (how your products differ from those of your competition) and how you plan to market your wares.\nWhile you may not have to worry about the logistics of operating a full-time brick-and-mortar business, you still have some of the responsibilities of a business owner while you\u2019re out selling, such as knowing how to set prices, keeping steady customers coming back, and creating a system for preventing theft. There\u2019s also the matter of how to best display your wares \u2014 look to sites like Pinterest for ideas.\nHandling Logistics\nYou\u2019ll need to ensure that you acquire any business licenses, tax identification numbers, permits, certifications and insurance that your state requires of business owners. You\u2019ll also need to pay taxes on your business, meaning that you\u2019ll have some additional work come tax time.\nUltimately, the decision to sell at a crafts fair or flea market should rest on your passion for your merchandise and desire to share it with a larger community. Operating as a vendor does take some time and effort, and may require tasks that are outside your comfort zone as a crafts expert. But if you\u2019re up for it, the journey into becoming a vendor can be very worthwhile.\nNext: 5 Tips For Keeping Your Restaurant Opening Within Budget",

        "raw_content": "Danby, North Yorkshire\nDanby shown within North Yorkshire\nDanby is a village and civil parish in the Scarborough district of North Yorkshire, England. According to the 2001 UK census, Danby parish had a population of 1,411,[1] a reduction on the 2001 UK census figure of 1,515.[2] The statistician Karl Pearson spent a lot of time there.[3]\nDanby is located within the North York Moors National Park and is home to the Moors National Park Centre.[4]\nDanby is served by a rail network between Middlesbrough and Whitby and an Arriva bus service. Danby village incorporates the Duke of Wellington pub and the neighbouring post office. The village lies on the Esk Valley Walk.\nThe civil parish includes Ainthorpe, Botton, Castleton, Commondale, Danby, Fryup and Westerdale.\n2 Danby Castle\n3 Danby Show\n5 Danby Beacon\nAn electoral ward in the same name exists. This ward had a population of 2,072 at the 2011 Census.[5]\nDanby Castle[edit]\nA little over a mile to the south-east are the remains of Danby Castle.[6]\nDanby Castle occupies a commanding position on the far slopes of Danby Rigg. It was built in the 14th century for Lord Latimer as a sign of his great wealth and, in its day, was of pioneering architectural design, combining both defence and comfortable living. Catherine Parr once lived at the castle, before she became the sixth wife of Henry VIII. The castle is now a wedding venue; part of the building is now a farmhouse and the venue owners' family home. Danby court leet, the all male, baronial court whose origins were as a manorial court, but whose functions are now restricted to the management of common land,[7] regularly meets in the castle's courtroom.[8]\nDanby Show[edit]\nDanby, the Duke of Wellington pub on the left under repair\nThe Danby Agricultural Show is held every year in August, with traditional country entertainments and activities such as show jumping, sheepdog trials, exhibitions of farm animals and machinery as well as horticultural, craft and produce competitions. The show was inaugurated in 1848 by the then vicar of Danby, Canon John Atkinson, and regularly attracts 6,000 visitors.[9]\nChurch history[edit]\nDaniel Duck (1743-?1825) was the vicar of Danby from 1780 until he was succeeded by his son Joseph in 1825. Joseph came from Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge and his family was one of yeoman freeholders in the Yorkshire Dales. He is commemorated in the poem, Lines in Memory of the Rev. D. Duck, Curate of Danby.\n\"Yes Daniel, faithful Daniel \u2013 gone / We faithfull few lament their loss / No more we fix our eyes upon / That Zealous preacher of the cross.\" The preface to this poem in the original manuscript had: \u201dWritten on the Back of a pew before divine service while the folk were gathering up. Sunday April 1835.\u201d Daniel Duck's diaries are held by the Whitby Literary and Philosophical Society, which indicates that Daniel was the eldest son of Joseph Duck, yeoman, of Ainthorpe, and Hannah. He was perpetual curate of Danby, first appearing in the church register in February 1780.\nThe Rev. John Christopher Atkinson was Vicar of Danby 1850\u20131900 and author of Forty Years in a Moorland Parish, 1891.[10]\nDanby Beacon[edit]\nThe Danby Beacon was one of a line of beacons up to 20 miles apart, and dates back to the 1600s when the country was living under the threat of invasion from France. It was to have been lit when the soldier stationed nearby had sight of a foreign fleet. The Beacon is now a landmark that is used as a waymarker by thousands of walkers each year. Over time, the old wooden beacon decayed so much that it fell down and the original landmark was lost.[11]\nA new beacon was unveiled in 2008 by Lord Downe, President of the Danby Beacon Trust. The flame-shaped basket is made out of blued stainless steel, blending in with the sky. The flames are mounted around a cup that is decorated with bronze \u2013 a reminder of the Bronze Age burial mound which part occupies the site.[12]\nDuring the Second World War, the site became home to one of the first radar stations guarding the north-east coast. The station was responsible for guiding Group Captain Peter Townsend, when he intercepted and shot down the first enemy aircraft to fall on English soil during the war.[13]\nThe radar station, which continued to function until 1957, was the precursor of the RAF Fylingdales early warning station, 15 miles south-east, whose three giant golf balls became one of the North York Moors National Park's biggest attractions.[14][15]\n^ a b UK Census (2011). \"Local Area Report \u2013 Danby Parish (1170217330)\".

But we can't create another Sundarbans if it is destroyed by the Rampal power plant. All the rare tigers, dolphins and other animals will be destroyed,\" said Saddam Hossain, 21, from the northern city of Bogra.\n\"It is a unique forest and one of its kind in the world. But by building the power plant, the government is writing its obituary,\" said student Mashuk Helal Onik.\nOrganisers said more than 20,000 people had joined the protest and were expecting up to 100,000 as the day progressed.\nPolice were reluctant to give a figure but said the number would be lower than the organisers' estimate.\nLast month UNESCO urged Bangladesh to halt construction of the plant.\nIt said there was a high chance pollution from the plant would \"irreversibly damage\" the Sundarbans, which straddles the border of India and Bangladesh and provides a barrier against storm surges and cyclones that have killed thousands of people in impoverished coastal villages.\nBangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has defended the project and rejected concerns about it as politically motivated. She said the plant was needed to provide power to the impoverished south.\nTags : Coal, UNESCO, Sunderbans, Sheikh Hasina, rampal power plnt, Bangladesh",

Terry Rambo*\n* Program on System Approaches in Agriculture, Faculty of Agriculture, Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen 40002, Thailand; East-West Center, Honolulu, Hawaii 96848-1601, USA\ne-mail: trryrambo[at]yahoo.com\nRural Northeast Thailand has been undergoing rapid change in recent years, a process that can be referred to as an \u201cagrarian transformation.\u201d This transformation involves a major restructuring of agriculture from being subsistence oriented to market oriented. It also involves concomitant changes in all components of the agricultural system, including technology, economic orientation, social relations, and cultural values. This paper presents a review of a large volume of recent research on several key dimensions of the agrarian transformation: (1) agricultural intensification, diversification, and specialization; (2) technological change and the continuing role of traditional technology in rural life; (3) the epidemiological transition and changes in health and disease risks; and (4) social system changes, including in the nature of rural-urban interactions, population structure, household composition and livelihood systems, community social organization, and cultural values and aspirations.\nKeywords: rural development, agricultural intensification, social change, globalization, post-peasant society\nRural areas in Northeast Thailand (Isan) have been undergoing rapid change in recent years, a process that can be referred to as an \u201cagrarian transformation.\u201d This transformation involves a major restructuring of agriculture from being subsistence oriented to market oriented. It also involves concomitant changes in all components of the agricultural system, including technology, economic orientation, social relations, and cultural values. These changes are so profound that Terry Grandstaff et al. (2008) have referred to them as constituting the \u201crainfed revolution.\u201d Despite the magnitude of these changes, however, the perceptions of the region held by academics, policy makers, members of the mass media, and the urban public in Thailand have tended to lag behind actual changes on the ground (Dayley 2011; Keyes 2011; 2014; Mills 2012) so that many still conceptualize the situation of the rural Northeast according to an outmoded model (which I will henceforth refer to as the \u201cconventional model\u201d) that depicts the region as it used to be before it entered into a period of rapid development beginning in the late 1980s and early 1990s.\nAccording to this conventional view, Northeast Thailand is a poor and backward region because rainfed rice farming is intrinsically unproductive. Yields are low and unstable due to the poor resource base (e.g., infertile sandy soils, limited availability of surface water supplies) and unfavorable environmental conditions (e.g., limited and erratic rainfall) (KKU-Ford Cropping System Project 1982; Rambo 1991; Viriya 2001). Intensification is inhibited by the high risk of crop failure, lack of capital and knowledge, and cultural conservatism (Rigg 1985). Despite these severe constraints, rural people survive by employing a number of time-tested environmental adaptations, especially reliance on having a highly diversified livelihood portfolio (Grandstaff 1988). This portfolio includes low-input subsistence-oriented production of glutinous rice to meet household consumption needs; growing of low-value upland crops (e.g., cassava and sugarcane) to earn cash income; heavy reliance on wild resources that can be collected from fields, forests, and streams; out-migration to find new sources of income by working outside the region; and reliance in times of scarcity on a local safety net provided by kinsfolk and fellow villagers. Until the closing of the land frontier in the late 1970s, migration of people from overpopulated villages to create new settlements in forest areas (ha na di) helped to maintain a balance between population and resources (Fukui 1993). The rural social system associated with this model is characterized by a relatively high degree of egalitarianism, with little economic differentiation among households, low educational levels, limited integration into the larger national social and economic systems, and high levels of community solidarity (Sukaesinee et al. 1988). The adaptive strategy of employing diversified livelihood portfolios must be judged as a successful one in that it ensures that rural people are almost always able to procure enough resources to meet their basic survival needs, but at the cost of being locked into low-productivity farming and persistent poverty.\nAlthough the conventional model provided a useful framework for understanding the Northeast until the end of the 1980s, the situation has changed so rapidly and profoundly in the past two decades that it no longer accurately reflects reality on the ground. The stereotypes of a poor and backward rural economy based on low-productivity subsistence-oriented agriculture are now largely obsolete (Fukui 1996b). A new model, which I will refer to as the \u201ctransformational model,\u201d is needed to more accurately represent current realities. Table 1 presents a comparison of the conventional and the transformational models: Key changes in agricultural technology include the widespread adoption of the RD6 glutinous rice variety, which replaced the many hundreds of traditional varieties previously planted in the region (Tr\u00e9buil and Hossain 2004; Rambo 2006). The adoption of motorized hand tillers allowed preparation of land for planting without having to wait for water to accumulate in the fields. This, together with the use of diesel pumps to provide supplementary irrigation using water from newly dug farm ponds, helped to stabilize rice yields in years of low rainfall. Thus, the adoption of RD6 combined with mechanization of cultivation and small-scale supplementary irrigation has largely solved the problem of rural food security while allowing farmers to plant a larger share of their land to non-glutinous KDML105; the latter is raised as a cash crop, providing rural households with a new source of income. Sale of non-glutinous rice to the market is now the largest single source of agricultural income of farm households (Grandstaff et al. 2008).\nTable 1 Conventional and Transformational Models of the Agricultural System of Northeast Thailand\nAgricultural intensification, diversification, and specialization have begun to occur to an extent unimaginable just a few years ago. Relying on remittances sent back to their families by migrant workers as well as cash earned by engaging in off-farm employment in new factories and service jobs in local urban centers, Isan farmers have been rapidly adopting modern agricultural technology, including new varieties, chemical fertilizers, and farm machinery. Multiple cropping and specialized growing of high-value crops to supply urban markets are also now common, further helping to raise farm incomes (Arunee and Rambo, Chalee et al., and Sorat et al., this issue). It can be argued that a new pattern of adaptation is emerging as a central feature of this agrarian transformation (Grandstaff et al. 2008). Households continue to rely on a diversified livelihood portfolio but one that is increasingly based on agricultural intensification, diversification, specialized production of cash crops (e.g., rubber, high-value niche crops) and livestock, increased dependence on off-farm employment as the main source of income, and growing dependence on extra-local social networks and government assistance to provide a safety net to make up for weakening village solidarity (Rigg and Salamanca 2009). As also seems to be the case in Northern Thailand (Walker 2012), the rural social system has been undergoing rapid change, with declining rates of poverty, increasing levels of economic differentiation, improving levels of education, declining community solidarity, and ever-deepening integration with national and global social and economic systems (Barnaud et al. 2006; Keyes 2011; 2014).\nThe ongoing agrarian transformation involves every dimension of rural existence, including demography (out-migration, declining fertility, population aging), social organization (increased economic stratification, emergence of new types of household structures, expansion of extra-local social networks, weakening of village solidarity), culture (erosion of indigenous knowledge base, adoption of cosmopolitan cultural patterns), health (increased prevalence of obesity and diabetes, drug addiction, and alcoholism), education (raising of age of mandatory schooling, increased valuation of education as a route to upward mobility), employment (scarcity of agricultural labor, off-farm employment as main source of income), to mention only some of the most evident types of change.\nDespite the magnitude of these and other changes, and the major implications they have for agricultural and rural development policy making, there has been relatively little systemic research on the agrarian transformation of Northeast Thailand. However, there have been numerous more narrowly focused studies by both Thai and foreign scholars, including those contributing papers to this special issue, on a wide variety of specific aspects of Isan\u2019s changing agrarian system. These studies provide many of the pieces needed to assemble a more comprehensive model of the agrarian transformation, but so far no one has attempted to put them all together. Therefore, in this paper I will review recent research, much of it done by faculty members and graduate students in the Program on System Approaches in Agriculture of Khon Kaen University, on the following key dimensions of the agrarian transformation: (1) agricultural intensification, diversification, and specialization; (2) technological change and the continuing role of traditional technology in rural life; (3) the epidemiological transition and changes in health and disease risks; and (4) social system changes, including in the nature of rural-urban interactions, population structure, household composition and livelihood systems, community social organization, and cultural values and aspirations. The objective of this review paper is to present a broad overview of some of the main characteristics of the agrarian transformation in Northeast Thailand.\nAgricultural Intensification, Diversification, and Specialization\nIn the past, growing rainfed glutinous rice was the main agricultural activity in most of the Northeast. A single crop was grown in the rainy season from June to October, with the paddy fields lying fallow for the rest of the year and serving only as pasture for livestock and as the source of some wild foods (e.g., snails, edible insects, wild vegetables) consumed by the villagers. The yield of rice was generally low, less than 1.5 t/ha, which kept many small farmers trapped in poverty (KKU-Ford Cropping System Project 1982). Intensifying rice production and engaging in multiple-cropping before or after rice, diversifying from glutinous rice into other, more profitable crops, and shifting to growing high-value specialty crops (e.g., vegetables, fruit) have all been proposed by development specialists as ways to overcome the intrinsic constraints on the productivity of rainfed rice agriculture. Until recently, few farmers in the Northeast adopted such strategies. In the past two decades, however, many farmers have begun to intensify their rice growing, do multiple-cropping of alternative crops before or after rice, replace rice with higher-value crops, and plant high-value specialty crops.\nIntensification of Rice Production\nHistorically, rice production in the Northeast was increased entirely through extensification\u2014the bringing of new land into cultivation on the forest frontier (Fukui 1993). It was this gradual expansion in the area planted to rice, rather than intensification of production on existing fields, that accounted for virtually all of the increase in the total quantity of grain produced in the region until the mid-1990s. Even after the construction of new paddy fields ceased at the end of the 1980s, the total rice production of the region continued to rise as the result of intensification, with average yields increasing from around 1.6 t/ha in 1995 to almost 2 t/ha by 2005 (Grandstaff et al. 2008, 323, Fig. 4C). It has been suggested by Grandstaff et al. (2008) that it was the widespread adoption of the RD6 rice variety beginning in the late 1980s that triggered the intensification of rainfed rice production in the Northeast. In their view it led to a cascading series of self-amplifying changes in the entire agricultural system (Fig. 1). Following the widespread adoption of RD6, average rice yields increased because of the much heavier application of chemical fertilizers and pesticides by the farmers and the widespread adoption of diesel pumps to provide supplementary irrigation during dry spells. Farmers were willing to use expensive inputs because thanks to these new technologies the year-to-year stability of rice production greatly increased. For example, in Don Daeng village, yields in the 1980s varied from a low of 367 kg/ha in 1982 to a high of 1,967 kg/ha in 1983, whereas in the early years of the twenty-first century the amount of annual variation had fallen to less than 100 kg/ha (K. Watanabe, this issue).\nFig. 1 Adoption of RD6 and Consequent Changes in the Agrarian System of Northeast Thailand\nSource: Based on information in Grandstaff et al. (2008).\nDigging of farm ponds, which permitted small-scale supplemental irrigation using pumps, and consolidation of paddy fields into larger units were important factors contributing to this increased yield stability. Although digging of community ponds was undertaken as part of the military-initiated Green Isan rural development program in the 1980s, it was only in the 1990s that individual farmers began to dig their own ponds near their paddy fields. By the end of the decade there were 65,000 farm ponds in the Northeast (Sawaeng and Nongluck 2002), a number that the government planned to increase by 450,000 by supporting farmers with a revolving loan fund launched in 2004. The ponds contributed to stabilization of rice yields because their water could be used to keep the rice plants alive during the periods of drought that often occurred in the middle of the rainy season. They also contributed to diversification of agriculture since the water could be used to grow dry season vegetables as well as support the rearing of fish and livestock (Ando 2003; Penning de Vries and Sawaeng 2010). Consolidation of small paddy fields into larger units has been occurring in many villages since the 1990s. Thus, in Don Daeng village near Khon Kaen city, the number of rice fields declined by one-third but the area of individual plots increased by three times between 1981 and 2005. Heavy machinery was used to level the land in these larger fields, which improved water control and increased the stability of production (K. Watanabe, this issue).\nWith less fear of crop failure and higher average yields, farmers reduced the area planted to glutinous rice raised for home consumption and increased the area planted to KDML105 (jasmine rice), which has become a major source of cash income (Grandstaff et al. 2008). Since both RD6 and KDML105 are medium-duration and photoperiod-sensitive varieties, the length of time from planting to harvest has been shortened compared to the traditional late varieties that were dominant before, and the labor-intensive cultivation operations of field preparation, rice planting, and harvesting have been concentrated into relatively brief and predictable periods. Use of hand tractors to plow the fields, adoption of broadcast seeding, and employment of combine harvesters also decreased the amount of human labor time needed to grow rice. These changes allowed farmers to spend more time doing local off-farm jobs or to engage in short-term migration to other areas to seek employment. Increased household income gained from the sale of non-glutinous rice and off-farm wages and remittances from migrants was used to buy fertilizer, hire wage laborers, and buy or hire agricultural machinery to replace increasingly scarce and expensive agricultural labor. Rural households also began to invest more in educating their children, which increased their propensity to leave the villages to seek employment in urban centers, further worsening the shortage of farm labor in the countryside. But remittances sent back to their families by migrant children increased household income, permitting the purchase of more expensive consumer goods. This improved the quality of life in the villages but also led to increased indebtedness of many rural households. A survey of more than 2,000 rural households in Buri Ram, Ubon Ratchathani, and Nakhon Phanom Provinces found that 81% were in debt in 2010, with the average amount of debt equal to one-half of annual income (Chichaibelu and Waibel 2012, 3, Table 2).\nInterestingly, households that diversified their farming systems to include crops other than rice, especially cash crops, were found to be less likely to have migrant members than households that grew only rice. This was presumably because crop diversification reduces the risk of crop failure and cash crops provide locally earned income, thus decreasing the need to rely on remittances (Piotrowski et al. 2013).\nMultiple Cropping in Paddy Fields before or after Rice\nMultiple cropping by planting alternative crops before or after rice has often been suggested as a way to increase productivity and boost rural incomes. In past years, numerous experiments and field trials to test different multiple cropping systems were carried out by Khon Kaen University (KKU) researchers, but although they were often agronomically successful, farmers failed to adopt these systems because of a lack of markets for their produce and low economic returns (Terd et al. 1976a; 1976b; 1978a; 1978b). However, in recent years, growing of catch crops after the rice harvest has become much more widespread in the Northeast and farmers are employing a variety of locally developed multiple cropping systems (Anan 2001; Prapatsorn and Wareerat 2010; Thongkamkaew et al. 2010; Patcharaporn and Orawan 2011). A survey carried out in 2012\u201313 found that multiple cropping after rice was practiced in 90% of the 198 subdistricts in Khon Kaen Province. The land area used for multiple cropping was relatively small, only 3% of the total paddy area, but the practice was carried out by 11% of all rainfed rice farmers (Arunee and Rambo, this issue). Most of the multiple cropped area is devoted to low-value field crops (e.g., cassava, sunn hemp), but in areas with favorable soil and water conditions, higher-value vegetables are planted. For example, in Lad Na Piang village, Mueang District, Khon Kaen Province, many farmers grow hybrid tomatoes after rice under contract to seed companies (Chalee et al., this issue). Growing hybrid tomato seed can generate as much as USD50,000/ha compared to a value of less than USD1,000 for rice grown in the first crop. Of course, growing tomatoes for seed is extremely labor intensive, so in actuality, individual farmers cultivate only small plots that generate only a few thousand dollars of extra income. Despite the evident benefits of multiple cropping, however, only some farmers in some areas engage in such intensification\u2014for reasons that remain poorly understood.\nReplacement of Rice with Higher-Value Crops\nIn some areas, especially on land along the banks of the Mekong River in Nong Khai and Nakhon Phanom, farmers have converted upper paddy fields to rubber plantations because rubber produces much higher net value per hectare than rice (Sorat et al., this issue). Recently, however, since the price of rubber went into steep decline, some of these farmers have begun to replace their rubber trees with oil palms, although the expansion of oil palm plantations is presently limited by the lack of processing facilities. In other areas, such as the village in Khon Kaen Province studied by M. Watanabe et al. (this issue), farmers have begun to plant sugarcane in lower paddy fields in place of rice. Thai Vietnamese farmers in a village in Nakhon Phanom have recently stopped growing rice in their paddy fields in order to concentrate limited household labor supplies on growing vegetables in the gardens around their houses, which gives much higher returns per labor hour than rice cultivation. The paddy fields are either rented out to Thai neighbors or left fallow (Nguyen Dang Hoc et al. 2016).\nDiversifying Production into Higher-Value Specialty Crops\nIn many parts of the Northeast, farmers have shifted from growing cassava and sugarcane to rubber, which is favored because it generates high incomes (Patarapong et al. 2011). In locations with favorable soil and water conditions along with good market access, farmers have been diversifying their production by raising high-value specialty cash crops such as vegetables, fruit, and flowers along with fish and livestock. Examples of successful adoption of high-value specialty crops are Chinese radish cultivation in Nong-Ngong village, Baanhad District (Patcharaporn and Orawan 2011) and growing of organic vegetables in Samsung village in Khon Kaen Province to sell to urban consumers seeking pesticide-free food (Mondal et al. 2014). An analysis of data collected in 1995\u201396 from 174 randomly sampled non-irrigated farms in 49 subdistricts in Khon Kaen Province found that 37% cultivated only rice and/or field crops while 63% practiced more diversified agriculture that combined rice and field crops with horticulture and/or livestock rearing. The agricultural income of the most highly diversified farms, which combined cultivation of rice, field crops, vegetables, and fruit and in some cases livestock rearing, was 60% higher than the average for all farms in the sample, even though the size of their landholdings was much smaller than the average (Caldwell et al. 2007).\nIn mountain areas in the Northeast, especially in Loei and Nakhon Ratchasima Provinces, farmers are engaging in \u201cvalue intensification\u201d by switching from growing low-value rice and field crops to planting higher-value specialty crops such as grapes, strawberries, temperate vegetables, and flowers. Integration of such specialty agriculture with tourism (\u201cagro-tourism\u201d) appears to be a successful form of value intensification in scenic mountainous areas, notably in Phu Ruea District in Loei Province, which specializes in temperate flowers and mushrooms, and Wang Nam Kieo District in Nakhon Ratchasima, which specializes in grapes and temperate vegetables grown in direct association with tourist resorts, homestays, and restaurants (Sukanlaya et al. 2014; 2016). The limiting factors on the adoption of high-value specialized cropping systems and agro-tourism are not yet well understood, however, so the potential for wider expansion of these systems remains uncertain.\nAn interesting characteristic of specialty crop production in the Northeast is the apparent tendency for each of these different crops to be geographically clustered into one or a few centers of production rather than being randomly dispersed in villages across the whole region. For example, growing of hybrid tomatoes under contract to seed companies is concentrated in only a few small clusters (Chalee et al., this issue). In some cases, such as growing of temperate flowers or vegetables in the mountains, this clustering may reflect environmental constraints that limit the spread of these crops to small areas with suitable soils and temperatures and good road connections to markets (Sukanlaya et al. 2014). In other cases, however, clustering seems to be primarily a reflection of historical accident. For example, a single farmer first began growing jujube fruit (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.) about 15 years ago in Ban Meng Subdistrict, Nong Ruea District, Khon Kaen Province. Now, jujube is grown by 13 households in five villages in this subdistrict. However, because growing jujube requires a substantial initial capital investment, an adequate water supply, use of expensive inputs including fertilizers, hormones, pesticides, and hired labor, and learning of specialized skills by farmers, only wealthier farmers with suitable land can adopt this high-value crop (Waewdaw et al. 2013). Mushroom growing is another highly profitable specialty that requires start-up capital and learning of special skills. A successful mushroom farmer whom my students and I interviewed in Phu Ruea District in Loei Province in September 2014 said that he first learned to grow mushrooms from an aunt who had mastered the specialized skill to produce the spores. Now a dozen farm households in the same village, all closely related by kinship, grow this highly profitable crop. They all still obtain the spores from their kinswoman who initiated mushroom production in the village.\nTechnological Change and the Continuing Role of Traditional Agricultural Technology\nIn recent years, Northeastern Thai farmers have adopted new technologies at an ever-accelerating rate. Two-wheel hand tillers displaced buffalo for plowing in the 1980s and 1990s and are now in turn being displaced by four-wheel tractors. Improved rice varieties, notably RD6 and KDML105, have replaced thousands of traditional local varieties (Tr\u00e9buil and Hossain 2004; Rambo 2006), while use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has increased exponentially. So it is evident that Isan farmers are not innately conservative or resistant to change. However, while quick to adopt useful new technology, they have not mindlessly discarded all traditional technology. Instead, they appear to have selectively retained traditional technologies that are effective and serve their needs, often at lower cost than newer methods. Like farmers everywhere in the world, Isan farmers have developed a valuable pool of local knowledge and indigenous technology that they rely on to ensure their survival (Rambo 2009). For example, they have an elaborate body of knowledge about rainfall prediction (Nongluck and Wilaiwat 1987) and also know about a number of methods to maintain soil fertility using locally available resources (Craig 1988). Traditional technologies that continue to play important roles in the livelihoods of Isan villagers include collecting wild resources, growing home gardens, maintaining trees in paddy fields, using cross-stream earthen weirs (tham nop) for irrigation, and relying on charcoal and other biofuels for household cooking.\nIt had long been assumed that mechanization of rainfed rice farming in the Northeast was unlikely to occur rapidly or proceed very far. Adoption of modern machinery was constrained by the subsistence orientation, low productivity, and abundance of cheap labor that characterized traditional farming. In recent years, however, mechanization of rice agriculture in the Northeast has been occurring at an ever-accelerating rate. Adoption has been spurred by the growing shortage of agricultural labor and consequent increases in the cost of hiring workers. Beginning in the 1980s, two-wheel hand tillers began to replace buffalo for plowing. In 1983 there were only a few thousand hand tillers in use in the Northeast, but by 2003 there were 1.25 million of these machines, which are now in turn being displaced by four-wheel tractors. In the 1990s, combine harvesters began to replace harvesting by hand. In 1993 only 1% of households used these machines, but by 2003 they were employed by 14% of farm households (Grandstaff et al. 2008, 336, Table 10C). In Tung Kula Rong Hai, most farmers now rent the services of combine harvesters to harvest their rice. The main exceptions are those farmers who raise a lot of livestock and need good-quality straw to use as fodder. The machines cut the straw into short pieces, which are not suitable for use as fodder\u2014so these farmers continue to do hand harvesting (Sorat et al. 2009; 2010). In recent years, farmers in irrigated areas have begun adopting transplanting machines. Some landowners even make contracts with machine operators to carry out virtually the entire process of rice cultivation, from plowing to transplanting to harvesting. Extensive use of farm machines considerably reduces production costs: A study of farm mechanization in Kok-Si Subdistrict, Mueang District, Khon Kaen Province found that the cost of production of rice for farmers using four-wheel tractors, transplanting machines, mechanical pesticide sprayers, and combine harvesters was 9.4 baht/kg compared to 11.4 baht/kg for farmers relying on two-wheel hand tillers for plowing and human labor for other tasks (Atthasat and Suchint 2014b). Farmers say that four-wheel tractors are superior to hand tillers for plowing paddy and sugarcane fields and for land leveling. The working speed of four-wheel tractors is much faster than that of hand tillers: a four-wheel tractor can plow 3.6 rai/hour compared to 0.31 rai/hour for a hand tiller (Atthasat and Suchint 2014a). Hand tillers are now mostly used to prepare the land to plant cassava as an intercrop between young rubber trees, as mobile water pumps, and to pull small carts (Atthasat and Suchint 2013).\nA number of interacting factors appear to be driving the process of mechanization, including a shift from subsistence production of glutinous rice for home consumption to the production of non-glutinous rice for sale to the market; higher prices for rice due to government support programs; the out-migration of workers seeking jobs in urban centers and the movement of rural laborers into non-agricultural employment with a consequent sharp decline in the size of the agricultural labor pool and a steep rise in wages paid for farm work; the decline in use of labor exchange arrangements among neighbors; and the increased access of farm households to capital due to the cash remittances they receive from members engaged in off-farm employment (Grandstaff et al. 2008). Interestingly, in a village close to the Mekong River border with Laos, farmers hire cheap Lao migrant laborers and thus avoid the need to invest in mechanization (Soimart 2014).\nMany village households have also invested in purchasing motor vehicles. Motorbikes have become virtually a necessity of life in the countryside, while better-off households often own pickup trucks, which they use for personal transportation and also to earn income by hauling their neighbors\u2019 crops to market. A longitudinal survey of investments over a three-year period by more than 2,000 households in three provinces in the Northeast found that while only 28% made any investments related to agricultural inputs, purchase of transport and farm machinery accounted for one-third of their investments (Hohfeld and Waibel 2013). The wealthy entrepreneurial farm households in Ban Hin Lad village in Khon Kaen Province studied by Barnaud et al. (2006) derived a considerable share of their income from hiring out their trucks to neighbors to transport their crops to market.\nThe Role of Wild Resources in Rural Household Livelihood Systems\nWild products collected from forests, farm fields, and aquatic systems have traditionally played an important role in the livelihoods of Isan villagers (Prapimporn et al. 1988; 1998; Moreno-Black and Prapimporn 2000). However, ongoing changes in agricultural systems are having important impacts on the biodiversity of wild plant and animal species. Adoption of new technology (e.g., irrigation, mechanization, intensification) may directly affect populations of useful wild species in the fields, as in the case of trees being cut down in paddy fields converted to growing sugarcane described in the paper by M. Watanabe et al. in this issue. Changes in family structure as well as agricultural activities also affect the availability of household labor and increase the opportunity cost of collecting wild products. Those households enjoying increased cash incomes are able to purchase commercial substitutes in place of spending time collecting wild species, whereas poorer households with limited land resources may be becoming even more reliant on wild products to survive. At the same time, the expansion of urban markets has created new incentives for rural people to engage in collection of high-value wild products and to bring formerly wild species into domesticated status (Shirai and Rambo 2008; 2014).\nHome Garden Agroecosystems\nAlthough cultivation of home gardens to provide vegetables, fruit, medicinal plants, and other useful products is a widespread practice in Northeast Thailand (Grandstaff 1988; Rambo 1991), this indigenous technology has received little attention from researchers, and even basic descriptions of the structure and species composition of the gardens are unavailable. However, a recent survey of seven ethnic groups (Phu Thai, Kalaeng, Lao, Yoy, Nyaw, So, and Vietnamese) in the Sakon Nakhon Basin found that the gardens of each group had a distinctive overall structural pattern and no two groups had identical modal patterns (Pijika 2014; Pijika and Rambo 2015). However, the gardens of all the Tai-speaking groups except the Phu Thai share a common overall plan in that a wide variety of different species are interplanted in an essentially random pattern with irregular and ill-defined boundaries. In the case of the Phu Thai, traditional species are still planted in this pattern but temperate vegetables grown for sale are planted as monocultures in rectangular plots that resemble those of Thai Vietnamese market gardeners (Pijika 2014; Pijika and Rambo 2015; Nguyen Dang Hoc et al. 2016). That the different groups largely retain their own distinctive garden structures while changing so many other aspects of their agricultural system raises interesting\u2014but currently unanswerable\u2014questions about the interplay between economic and cultural factors in the rural development process (Pijika and Rambo 2015).\nTrees in Paddy Fields\nThe northeastern region is well known for its unique \u201ctrees in paddy fields\u201d agroecosystem. This is a locally evolved system in which farmers deliberately retain numerous large trees in their rice fields (Pendleton 1943). Shading reduces rice yields to some extent under the tree canopies, but the improvement of soil fertility resulting from the recycling of tree leaf litter increases the overall yield of the field. In addition, the trees provide many valuable benefits to farmers (e.g., firewood, fruit, shade for people and livestock) (Patma 1993). In recent years, however, the density of trees in the paddy fields appears to be declining, especially in the northern central provinces (Khon Kaen, Udon Thani, Nong Khai) of the northeastern region (Watanabe et al. 2014). In part this decline is simply the consequence of the length of time since fields were originally reclaimed from the forest, with older fields having fewer trees. But the rate of decline may have accelerated lately because farmers are cutting down trees that present obstacles to the efficient use of tractors and combine harvesters. Trees are being cut down also because shading reduces yields of sugarcane, which in some villages is being planted in lower paddy fields in place of rice because of its much higher profitability (M. Watanabe et al., this issue). However, in other villages farmers are increasing the number of trees in their rice fields by planting rows of eucalyptus trees on the paddy bunds. The Double A paper company even promotes its Khan Na brand of copier paper as being an environmentally friendly product because it is made, at least in part, from eucalyptus trees grown on paddy bunds.\nTraditional Irrigation Technologies\nConstruction by Isan villagers of earthen dams (tham nop) across streams to raise the water level high enough to overflow the stream banks and spread across the paddy fields to irrigate the rice is a well-developed indigenous technology. Although many tham nop have fallen into disuse in recent years, or been replaced with concrete weirs, this technology is still employed in some areas (Fukui and Chumphon 1998; Fukui et al. 2000). A recent study of the factors influencing abandonment or retention of this type of traditional irrigation found that this system persists in areas where: (1) the topography is favorable for distributing the water to a wide area so that many farmers benefit from it; (2) the tham nop are reinforced with bamboo to make them more durable and less likely to break during floods; and (3) farmers have greater dependency on rice and lower dependency on upland crops for their livelihoods so are willing to invest more effort in maintaining the weirs. Factors leading to abandonment of tham nop irrigation include: (1) frequent failure of the structure, requiring extensive repair work by the farmers; (2) poor distribution of water to the paddy fields, causing losses in the harvest due to prolonged flooding; and (3) government projects to replace the earthen weirs with concrete weirs and canals (Prapatsorn 2014). Adoption of mechanized plowing and direct seeding in place of transplanting have also reduced the need to have the paddies flooded at the beginning of the cropping season, which decreases the value of the tham nop.\nIrrigation using locally constructed waterwheels, although never widespread in the Northeast, was formerly common in villages located near mountains with swift-flowing streams in Chaiyaphum, Loei, and Nakhon Ratchasima Provinces. At present, there are only about a dozen waterwheels still in use in Mueang District of Chaiyaphum Province. A comparative cost-benefit analysis found that irrigation using the waterwheels was four to five times cheaper than using mechanical pumps. However, the initial investment to construct new wheels was large, and maintenance required considerable attention from owners (Wichian 2008).\nReliance on Charcoal for Cooking\nDespite the ready availability of alternative fuels in the form of electricity and bottled gas, charcoal is still the preferred fuel for cooking many foods, even in urban areas. A comparative study of biomass energy (firewood and charcoal) use in rural, suburban, and urban communities in Khon Kaen Province found that the quantity of biomass energy used per household was 21.7 GJ/yr in rural villages, 18.6 GJ/yr in suburban communities, but only 5.4 GJ/yr in urban settlements. Thus, even though urban households make much greater use of electricity and gas than do suburban and rural households, they still continue to use charcoal at one-third the level per capita compared to rural households (Analaya et al. 2011). Much of the demand for charcoal from rural and urban consumers is met by small-scale traditional earthen kilns operated by individual farmers or groups of farmers using a variety of local materials to convert into low-quality charcoal.\nThe Epidemiological Transition and Changes in Health and Disease Problems\nThe rural population in the Northeast is in the midst of an \u201cepidemiological transition\u201d (Pattanee 2013), in which traditional diseases and health problems such as malnutrition, anemia, and goiter are gradually declining but modern diseases and health problems such as obesity, type II diabetes, and alcoholism and drug addiction as well as traffic deaths and injuries are rapidly increasing.\nOne traditional disease that shows no sign of declining is liver cancer resulting from the long-established custom of Isan villagers eating raw fish. This practice is a major source of infection with liver flukes (Opithorchis viverrini). In 2004 death from liver cancer and cholangiocarcinoma ranked fourth after HIV/AIDS, stroke, and traffic accidents as a cause of mortality in Thailand. The prevalence of liver flukes in the Northeast was much higher (18.6%) than the national average (8.7%) (Wongba et al. 2011).\nMany other traditional diseases, however, are in decline. Malnutrition, which was widespread in the 1980s, with close to half of school-age children in the Northeast classified as having protein-energy malnutrition, has declined rapidly (Pattanee 2013). However, specific nutrient deficiencies, especially those associated with anemia, remain common, reflecting inadequate intakes of iron and vitamin A in the diet as well as the prevalence of abnormal hemoglobins\u2014e.g., thalassemia and hemoglobin E\u2014in the Isan population. A study of a large sample of primary school children from poor farm households in Ubol Ratchathani Province found that 31% had anemia (Thurlow et al. 2005), while another study of teenagers in Mukdahan and Roi Et Provinces found that 21% and 17% of individuals in the respective provinces had anemia (Anupong et al. 2011). A study found that 77% of elderly people in a village in Northeast Thailand had anemia compared to only 14% in a city in Japan (Ishine et al. 2006). High levels of zinc deficiency have also been reported for rural Northeasterners, with as many as two-thirds of schoolchildren tested having this deficiency, reflecting the low amount of this element present in glutinous rice grown in the zinc-deficient soils in the region (Woravimol et al. 2006; Thurlow et al. 2006). It has been suggested that application of zinc fertilizers to paddy fields could solve this problem (Gibson et al. 2007).\nWhile malnutrition and the incidence of underweight and stunted children have greatly declined over the past 20 years, recent changes in diet and exercise levels have led to an explosion of the obesity rate in Northeast Thailand. A diet that formerly contained only small amounts of fats and sugar has been transformed by greatly increased consumption of fast foods by villagers. Village shops sell many high-calorie packaged snacks and soft drinks. Recently, when visiting in a village in Khon Kaen Province I observed three shops selling slices of white bread spread with margarine and jam as snacks. At the same time as consumption of calories is rising, energy expenditure in farm labor is declining as machines replace human muscle power in many operations. Instead of walking, villagers now use motorbikes to visit neighbors\u2019 houses, even those close by. Children spend much more time sitting in school and watching TV or playing computer games and less time helping their parents doing chores than in the past. Thus, it is hardly surprising that a survey of 12- to 18-year-old students in secondary schools in Khon Kaen Municipality found that 5.3% were overweight and 13.7% were obese (Phouvang et al. 2010), while another survey of a large sample of grade 6 children in primary schools in a district in Sakon Nakhon Province found that 9% were overweight and 9% were obese (Pipop et al. 2005, 830, Table 2).\nAssociated with the increase in the number of overweight people is a rapid increase in the incidence of diabetes mellitus. A recent study comparing the health of elderly people in Northeast Thailand and Japan found much higher rates of glucose intolerance, which is an indicator of diabetic tendencies, in old people living in both urban (38.3%) and rural (34.3%) communities in Thailand than in Japan (4.4%) (Ishine et al. 2006). A study of diabetics receiving treatment at a district hospital in Sakon Nakhon Province found that 60% were in the 45\u201364-year age group and that the direct and indirect costs of caring for these patients were high, averaging USD881/year in 2008, which was 21% of the average per capita GDP of the country (Chatterjee et al. 2011). One factor that may contribute to the high incidence of diabetes among Isan villagers is their traditional preference for eating glutinous rice, which has a much higher glycemic index (144) than ordinary long-grain non-glutinous rice (91) (Ranawana et al. 2009, 104, Table 4).\nThe great increase in average life span and the consequent increase in the number of elderly people is changing the health profile of both urban and rural Northeasterners and presenting the public health system with new challenges that it is not fully prepared to meet. Problems associated with menopause and andropause, and a whole range of diseases associated with old age, including the need for specialized care institutions for the elderly who lack family support, will become more important in the next decade.\nOther \u201cmodern\u201d health problems that have become more prevalent in recent years include alcoholism, drug addiction, and traffic-related deaths and injuries. The Northeast reportedly has the highest number of drug users in the country (Somjit et al. 2005). In 2000 there were an estimated 600,000 drug users in the region, including 200,000 schoolchildren. Methamphetamines (yaa ba) and marijuana were the most commonly used substances (Office of the Narcotics Control Board 2003). Excessive consumption of alcohol is favored by permissive Isan social norms, which see drinking as part of everyday life. Consumption is common at village social events and festivals, where alcohol is believed to help people feel happy and have a good time. A study in one village near Khon Kaen city found that 90% of males drank alcohol at least once a year, with more than half drinking at least one or two times a week. Females drank at a lower rate, with 40% of adult women drinking alcohol at least once a year. Most women were only occasional drinkers (Jirawat and Siriporn 2012).\nOwnership of motor vehicles in Thailand has increased greatly in the past decade. There are 12 million registered motor vehicles in the kingdom, mostly motorcycles, of which 3.5 million are newly registered (Ministry of Transport Information and Communication Technology Centre 2013). Not surprisingly, there is a high level of accidental deaths and injuries caused by motor vehicles. There are 13,000 deaths and more than one million injuries annually, with several hundred thousand people disabled. Eighty percent of fatalities are male (Wattanavadee et al. 2013). In Khon Kaen Province in 1999, the death rate was 26 per 100,000, with nearly 40% of road accidents involving drunk driving (Sirikul 2004). More recent data are unavailable, but if anything, the problem has worsened as more and more inexperienced drivers take to the road with minimal driving skills and knowledge of traffic rules.\nSocial System Changes\nAlong with changes in agriculture technology and practices, the agrarian transformation involves multiple changes in the Isan rural social system, including the nature of rural-urban interactions, population structure, household composition and livelihood systems, community social organization, cultural values, aspirations, and sense of identity.\nChanges in the Nature of Rural-Urban Interactions\nThe tighter integration of rural villages into larger economic and social systems has led to a form of \u201crural urbanization,\u201d in which many goods and services that were formerly available only within large cities are now readily accessible within the villages. Shops modeled on 7-Eleven convenience stores are found in many villages, selling soft drinks and packaged snack foods. Extension of the coverage of mobile phone networks in Thailand has made telephone service available everywhere except in the remote mountains. Today, almost every villager in Isan has a mobile phone. One reason that villagers are willing to move out of the villages to live in isolated houses on their farms is because mobile phones allow them to stay in touch with friends and neighbors and receive notification of parties and social events organized within the village (Patarapong 2010).\nAt the same time as their villages are urbanizing, rural people are developing closer relations with regional cities, which play an ever-increasing role in their lives. Until recently, cities in the Northeast were quite small and had a relatively limited influence on agricultural activity in their hinterlands. In recent years, however, there has been rapid growth of urban populations and expansion of urban settlements into the surrounding countryside. Urban sprawl is causing changes in land use in the peri-urban zone surrounding the cities (Sorat et al., this issue). Expansion of the area of urban settlement is pushing up the value of agricultural land in the peri-urban zone, leading many farmers to sell their land to developers for quick profits (Rigg and Ritchie 2002). Some invest their capital by buying land farther away from the city, where they continue farming; but others spend the windfall on immediate consumption and end up as landless laborers. Much of the land held by commercial developers lies unused or is planted to eucalyptus trees while the developers wait for prices to rise before building new housing estates. The growth of the urban market also creates new opportunities for those peri-urban farmers who are able to switch from growing rice to producing high-value specialty crops (e.g., organic vegetables, flowers) and meat and dairy products desired by affluent city people (Shirai 2006). Urban demand for biomass fuels (firewood and charcoal) remains surprisingly high (Analaya et al. 2011), providing a valuable market for eucalyptus farmers and rural small-scale charcoal makers. Access to urban employment opportunities may also be facilitating the development of a new type of farm household that might be called \u201cweekend farmers,\u201d i.e., rural households whose members work urban jobs on weekdays but carry out agricultural activities in the evenings and on holidays.\nPopulation Structure, Household Composition, and Livelihood Systems\nThailand as a whole has already passed through the demographic transition from high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates. Consequently, the rate of population growth has slowed and the population is rapidly aging, with the share of children and young adults declining and the share of those over 60 growing. However, total fertility rates in the Northeast have fallen more slowly than in other regions. It has been suggested that this reflects the influence of rural household structure and agricultural employment on the risk that having children poses to the income-earning potential of young women of childbearing age. Skipped generation extended-type households allow young married females who migrate to work in Bangkok to still have children: the children are sent to live with their grandparents in the mothers\u2019 home villages in Isan, while the women can continue to engage in wage labor in the city (Shirai and Rambo, this issue). Women of childbearing age who remain in the villages can have children while continuing to earn income through agricultural work, which has more flexible hours than non-farm employment.\nIn the Northeast, the effects of changes in fertility and mortality on population structure have been accentuated by the high rate of out-migration. In 1986 one-quarter of rural households in the whole Northeast had at least one member working outside of their home subdistrict, a share that had increased to 35% by 1992 (Nagata 1996) and has now reached 50% or more. A recent survey of 61 sample households in Nong Ben village in Khon Kaen Province found that 57% of households had one or more migrant members (Shirai and Rambo, this issue). A survey of 22 villages in Nang Rong District in Buriram Province found that in 2000 the migration prevalence rate ranged from 38% to 68% (Garip and Curran 2009). A longitudinal panel study of 509 individuals living in two villages in Mahasarakham Province in 1982\u201383 found that 49% of these individuals had moved away from their native villages by 2008, with the majority having relocated to other provinces (Rigg and Salamanca 2011). Migration has always been a common practice in the Northeast, both the movement of people from overpopulated villages to find new land on the forest frontier\u2014the practice of ha na di described by Fukui Hayao (1993)\u2014and seasonal migration of people to Bangkok to work as construction laborers or maids after the rice harvest and returning back to the villages in time to help plant the new crop at the start of the rainy season. Such seasonal migration is a long-established practice, with Robert Pendleton (1943) reporting that people from the Northeast walked down to the Central Plain to earn cash working in the rice harvest there, which did not begin until after the harvest in the Northeast was already finished. After the railroad reached Khorat around 1900, Isan farmers could also use the train to reach the Central Plain. Such seasonal migration greatly expanded after the construction of the Friendship Highway made travel to Bangkok much quicker and cheaper, at least for people living in areas close to the road. Migrants would leave their villages in the Northeast immediately after the end of the rice harvest in order to take temporary jobs as construction workers or maids in Bangkok, but then return to their villages in time to help their families plant the next crop at the start of the rainy season. Beginning in the late 1980s, however, there was a shift toward long-term migration, with migrants taking permanent jobs in factories in the Central Region and often returning to their home villages only for short visits at holidays, especially for the Thai New Year in April. Such long-term migrants rarely return home to help with the rice harvest, as was shown by a survey of migrants from Nang Rong District during the period 1984\u201394, which found that only 10% assisted with the harvest (Rindfuss et al. 2012, Table 1).\nAs a result of out-migration, the population of the northeastern region suffered a net loss of more than 900,000 people between 1985 and 2000 (Huguet and Aphichat 2011, 15, Table 1.9). Most of the long-term migrants were young adults, with a 2000 study in Nang Rong District finding that 87% of migrants were between the ages of 15 and 39 (Piotrowski 2009). The massive out-migration of young adults, combined with the increasing tendency of those who remain in the villages to work in nearby factories or service industries, has led to a severe agricultural labor shortage (Funahashi 1996). This has led to a rapid rise in wages for farm workers, which has been an incentive for farmers to adopt labor-saving machinery. It has also caused many farmers to shift from transplanting to broadcast seeding of rice (Pandey et al. 2012).\nThe agricultural labor force is also aging rapidly. The share of the population composed of people over 60 years of age in the Northeast increased from just under 9% in 2000 to 12% in 2010, and is projected to reach 17% by 2020 and 20% by 2025 (Thuttai 2012, 161, Table 6.1). In many rural villages the population seems to be composed mostly of young children and their grandparents (Funahashi 1996; Aree et al. 2012; Shirai and Rambo, this issue), with the share of elderly people living in skipped generation and truncated households having increased from 22% in 1990 to 41% in 2007 (Thuttai 2012, 170, Table 6.3).\nGiven the shortage of younger adults, more than 40% of people over the age of 60 in the Northeast remain active in the labor force, mostly engaged in agriculture, compared to less than 20% in Bangkok (Fujioka and Sopon 2009). This is reflected in a major upward shift in the average age of Isan farmers. A longitudinal study of two villages in Mahasarakham Province found that the median age of farmers had increased from 35 in 1982 to 58 in 2008 (Rigg and Salamanca 2011). These demographic shifts are likely to have profound impacts on Isan agriculture. It has been suggested, for example, that elderly farmers are less likely than younger ones to adopt new technology, including new crop varieties and chemicals, which may serve to retard the pace of innovation in agriculture (Bryant and Gray 2005). On the other hand, because older people lack the physical strength to plow using two-wheel hand tillers, they are motivated to switch to using small four-wheel tractors themselves or contracting with tractor owners to do the plowing for them (Atthasat and Suchint 2013).\nDemographic changes have been accompanied by changes in the structure of rural households (Shirai and Rambo, this issue). Although studies of village households in the 1960s found that the majority (>70%) were of the nuclear type (Lux 1962; Keyes 1975), a 2013 survey in Nong Ben village in Khon Kaen Province found that only 31% of households were nuclear (parents and children only), while 38% were extended, 11% were skipped generation extended (grandparents and grandchildren), and 19% were truncated-type households (elderly couples or individuals living alone) (Shirai and Rambo, this issue). These changes in household structure have a strong impact on the welfare of children and elderly people. Thus, a study of the nutritional status of children living in different types of households in two rural districts in Khon Kaen Province found that those living in nuclear households with both parents present fared best, while those living with their grandparents in skipped generation households fared less well, except in cases where the parents sent back remittances exceeding THB8,000/year. However, children living in extended households with both parents present also fared less well than those in nuclear households (Cameron and Lim 2007). Although the largest share of old people in the Northeast still live in extended-type households, where they can depend on the support of their adult children, two-fifths of the elderly are now living on their own in skipped generation and truncated households (Thuttai 2012, 170, Table 6.3). A detailed study on the living arrangements of elderly people in Nang Rong District found that those living in households with migrants were more likely to live alone (Teeraphong 2001).\nAccompanying changes in household composition are profound changes in sources of household income, including a growing share of income coming from non-agricultural sources. For the region as a whole, more than half of rural household income now comes from non-agricultural sources (Grandstaff et al. 2008; Rigg and Salamanca 2009). In Nong Ben village in Khon Kaen Province, in 2013 an average of 80% of household income came from non-agricultural sources, including local non-farm wage labor, government salaries, self-employment, government assistance, pensions, and remittances from migrant members (Shirai and Rambo, this issue). The greatly increased dependence of rural people, especially the elderly, on remittances sent back by migrants working in non-farm jobs outside of the region is noteworthy. Government statistical data show that the share of income from remittances increased in the Northeast from 3.8% in 1981 to 15.9% in 2004 (Grandstaff et al. 2008, 301\u2013306). Although a national sample survey of internal migrants in 1992, of which the largest share were Northeasterners, found that only 27% sent remittances back to their families (average THB763/month) (Osaki 2003), another study on migrants from Nang Rong District found that 57% sent back money and 39% sent back in-kind goods (Rindfuss et al. 2012). A recent survey of rural households in Nong Ben village in Khon Kaen found that more than half received remittances. Skipped generation households (grandchildren living with their grandparents) had the highest share of receiving remittances (88.9%), followed by extended family households (65.2%) and truncated family households (60%), while only 31.6% of nuclear family households received remittances (Shirai and Rambo, this issue).\nAlso affecting rural livelihoods are changes in patterns of landownership. Although the majority of farm households in the Northeast still own their own land, with only a small proportion either renting land or working as sharecroppers, and concentration of landownership in the hands of a few large owners is not as advanced as in the rest of the country (Chai, this issue), the mean size of farms has declined over the past 30 years, falling from 4.5 ha in 1980 to 4.3 ha in 1990 and 3.6 ha in 2000. Surprisingly, however, the mean farm area per capita has remained almost the same as it was in the 1980s, reflecting the concurrent decline in average family size (Grandstaff et al. 2008, 320\u2013321). There is great variation in the size of holdings farmed by rural households in the Northeast. Thirty percent of households have small holdings of less than 1.6 ha that occupy only 9% of the total agricultural area, and 60% have medium-sized holdings of 1.6 to 6.4 ha that occupy 60% of the total area. However, the 10% of households with farms larger than 6.4 ha occupy 32% of all agricultural land (Grandstaff et al. 2008). Few recent studies have been published on landholding patterns in specific villages, but a detailed investigation in Ban Hin Lad in Khon Kaen Province found that three-quarters of village households had very small farms of less than 2 ha, with less than 5% having large farms (Barnaud et al. 2006). Because the available data on landholding size include both paddy fields and upland crop fields, they provide only a crude indicator of the extent to which Isan households are able to be self-sufficient in rice production to meet their consumption needs; but it is evident that many households have too little land to provide a decent standard of living from agriculture alone.\nChanges in Community Social Organization\nThe conventional view of rural villages in the Northeast is that they are cohesive moral communities with limited economic differentiation among households and a high level of solidarity based on kinship ties and participation in community social activities, often centered on the temple (Sukaesinee et al. 1988; Keyes 2014). Research in the 1980s in Ban Hin Lad in Khon Kaen Province found that villagers were linked together through participation in many different formal and informal associations and groups (Wilaiwat et al. 1986). Informal labor exchange groups played a critical role in agricultural activities at times of peak labor demand for rice transplanting and harvesting. Households that encountered short-term economic difficulties due to crop failure or illness could rely on their fellow villagers to assist them with gifts or loans of food (Rigg and Salamanca 2009). In recent years, however, village solidarity has declined markedly. Exchange labor has virtually disappeared, with farmers relying on hired workers to assist them at peak periods in the rice production cycle. Village households increasingly depend for social support on government assistance and their own extended extra-local networks and rely much less on assistance from neighbors or village welfare institutions (ibid.).\nOne major social change that may contribute to the decline in community solidarity is the increasing tendency for households to move out of densely populated nucleated villages to live independently on their own farmsteads, where they are quite isolated from neighbors. This type of relocation happens most frequently in villages with high population densities, where keeping of livestock in houses within the settlement is prohibited and social conflicts among neighbors are more likely to occur. Households that have moved to live on their farmsteads have more time to devote to agriculture, so they farm more intensively and practice better soil management than those who remain in the villages (Patarapong 2010). Another factor that has weakened community social solidarity is the massive out-migration of young adults to work in Bangkok, the Eastern Seaboard, and abroad. Although many migrants continue to provide assistance to their families remaining in the villages, and occasionally return for short visits, the horizontal ties with other villagers in their own generation tend to atrophy since they are no longer continually reinforced by daily face-to-face interactions and joint participation in community activities and ritual affairs.\nCultural Values, Aspirations, and Sense of Identity\nThe prevalent image of Isan people in the Thai mass media is of tradition-bound, village-centered peasants having only limited involvement with or knowledge of the larger world (Keyes 2014), the Isan equivalent of American hillbillies or country bumpkins. This image is almost the opposite of reality. Rural people in Isan may well be the most dynamic and receptive to change of any people in the kingdom (Fukui Hayao, personal communication). Although often referred to in the social science literature as \u201cpeasants,\u201d the people of Isan were never fully incorporated into the absolutist Siamese \u201cfeudal\u201d (sak din na) system. Instead, until the administrative reforms of Rama V in the 1890s, they had lived in relatively autonomous villages that were under the rule of local chiefs (chao muang) who had only limited coercive power to control the lives of their rural subjects (Keyes 2014). Consequently, Isan villagers never developed the social atomism and lack of individual initiative that characterized peasants in highly developed feudal societies in Europe (Banfield 1958), Mesoamerica (Foster 1965), or central Siam (Jit 2007).\nSince the 1970s they have eagerly embraced globalization, both by finding employment in export-oriented factories in Bangkok and the east coast and by migrating in large numbers to live and work abroad. Isan laborers are employed in large numbers in construction, agriculture, and factory work in the Middle East, Taiwan, and South Korea. The Thai diaspora, mostly migrants from Isan, in the United States numbers over 300,000 people (Wikipedia contributors 2015). Thai Town in Los Angeles has become a major tourist attraction. Many Isan village women have married foreigners and live abroad with their spouses, mostly Western Europeans and Americans. According to a 2004 survey by the National Economic and Social Development Board (cited in Sirijit 2013), these women, who then numbered 15,000, sent back remittances to their families totaling more than USD44 million per year (about USD2,930 per person). In many other cases, which seem to replicate the traditional Isan custom of postmarital matrilocality, the foreign husbands have moved to Northeast Thailand to reside in their wives\u2019 home villages. No official data are available on the number of foreigners involved, but according to one journalistic source they number more than 100,000 (Frensham 2014). In one village, 84 out of 334 adult females had married foreigners (Rattana 2005). Although in Thai elite discourse women who marry foreigners are commonly viewed pejoratively as being little better than prostitutes who are immoral seekers after material wealth (although they are also sometimes presented as naive victims of neocolonialist sex trafficking), an alternative view is that these women, who are mostly widows or divorcees with little chance of finding a Thai husband (Orathai 2012), have found an innovative way to expand the diversified portfolios of their families, by tapping new extra-local resources (Chai Podhisita, personal communication). This view is supported by research by Leonora Angeles and Sirijit Sunanta, who found that the women themselves viewed their transnational marriages \u201c. . . as a way to gain social and spatial mobility for themselves and their families\u201d (Angeles and Sirijit 2009, 553). It has even been suggested that the phenomenon of transnational marriage \u201ccontributes to the village scale-jumping to global space, thus bypassing the Thai nation-state\u201d (Sirijit 2009).\nThe willingness to use spatial mobility as a way to gain access to more resources is, of course, hardly a new characteristic of Isan farmers. The Thai-Lao of Isan are descended from Lao migrants from Lan Xang who, beginning in the 1400s, had gradually trickled down into this sparsely populated frontier zone (Keyes 2014), which, until the 1940s, was 90% covered by forest (Pendleton 1943). Historically, when villages became overpopulated and the size of landholdings declined, some households would set off in search of unoccupied lands. Wherever they found suitable land for making new rice paddies, they would settle down and form a new village, often 50 or 100 kilometers from their natal communities (Fukui 1993).\nThe underlying character of Thai-Lao people has not changed, with the willingness to take risks to find and exploit new resources still being highly valued. Recently, however, there has been a major shift in the attitude toward education, which is reflected in the investment preferences of rural households. Until recently parents favored investment in land, hoping to increase their holdings to have a sufficiently large area to be able to give each of their children a farmstead when they became too old to work it themselves. Thus they tended to pull their children out of school as early as was legally allowed, so they could augment household labor resources; now, parents are not interested in accumulating larger landholdings but instead choose to invest capital in educating their children in order to prepare them to take non-farm employment in the cities that will allow them to support the elderly parents with remittances (Fukui 1996a; Grandstaff et al. 2008; Wanichcha and Dusadee 2013). In Khon Kaen University, where I teach, there are quite a number of graduate students from Isan farm families, including three of my own doctoral students. Their parents, most of whom have only a few years of primary education, definitely do not want them to return to farming after getting their degrees, and they themselves do not expect to do so. The value placed on higher education is shown by the fact that the parents of a doctoral student of one of my colleagues have even mortgaged part of their farmland in order to finance completion of her degree.\nPerhaps the most important recent change in the culture of Isan villagers is in the way they perceive themselves and their role in the world. Although they were never the servile peasants that the urban elite imagine them to be, their participation in mass political movements\u2014first the Communist mobilization of villages in the 1960s\u20131980s, then the organizational work by NGO community development activists in the 1990s, and most recently the Red Shirt movement and the formation of \u201cRed villages\u201d\u2014has affected the sense of self of many villagers (Keyes 2014).\nThe agrarian system of Northeast Thailand is changing in multiple ways at unprecedented speed. But perceptions of the rural Northeast held by many members of the Thai urban elite lag far behind present realities. The stereotypical view is that rural Isan people are poor, uneducated, and ignorant, resembling the buffalo they formerly used to plow their paddy fields (Chairat 2013). In this view, these backward peasants must ceaselessly struggle using antiquated technology to scratch a bare living out of a harsh environment. They live their lives within the confines of their native villages with their time horizon limited to the next crop and their only aspiration for the future being to produce sufficient food to keep their families alive. This stereotypical view seems impervious to empirical disconfirmation. Indeed, what is remarkable is that despite the massive social transformation of the rural Northeast over the past half-century, the conventional elite view has changed so little from that described by the late American anthropologist A. Thomas Kirsch in a paper published in 1966:\nBoth popular discussions of Northeast Thailand and its problems and more programmatic statements defining development aims seem to be rooted in certain conceptions about the \u201ckind\u201d of people Northeasterners are. Northeasterners are conceived, for example, as people with strong commitments to a particular mode of life, that of rice farmer; to a traditional set of village based social relations and customs; and to particular localities, whether native villages or the northeastern region in general. That is, Northeasterners are seen as \u201ctypical peasants.\u201d Given this conception of the way that Northeasterners are, and the massive fact of the economic under-development of the Northeast, solutions to the region\u2019s problems have been seen largely in economic terms. . . . The assumption seems to be that by raising income levels, by making life more comfortable for the Northeastern peasant population, the central government will lessen the appeal of \u201csubversive elements.\u201d In return for a better standard of living, peasants apparently are expected to give political support, or at least to remain politically apathetic. (Kirsch 1966, 370)\nKirsch goes on to say:\nI would suggest that far from solving the problems of the Northeast, such measures are likely to aggravate the specifically political dimensions of the problem. By raising villagers\u2019 income levels within the traditional economic framework, by making life easier and more comfortable for the rural villager, the levels of aspirations among young men are also likely to rise, and the means of achieving such aspirations\u2014e.g., freedom from poverty, better educational facilities\u2014will be available. Thus, more young men are likely to want to achieve social status outside of the rural village and outside of the peasant style of life. But most plans for development of the Northeast do not seem to take into account the possibility of such an increase in aspiration, for Northeastern villagers are viewed as an undifferentiated mass with common commitments to a peasant style of life. Unless efforts are made to keep channels of mobility open, and to expand them, we are likely to find a crucial segment of the Northeastern population thwarted in their aspirations\u2014perhaps an easy prey to those who might offer alternative commitments and alternative opportunities for status achievement. (ibid., 377\u2013378)\nI doubt it would have surprised Kirsch to learn that it was in the villages of the Northeast that the Red Shirt movement first arose after the 2006 coup, or that the majority of the core participants in the Red Shirt demonstrations in Bangkok in 2010 were members of the newly emerging Isan rural middle class. Most of these demonstrators were what Naruemon Thabchumpon and Duncan McCargo (2011) have called \u201curbanized villagers,\u201d rural people who gained considerable education and became entrepreneurial farmers, using newly gained access to capital provided by village development funds to modernize their farming and establish small businesses. As Kirsch so presciently recognized, the potential for the agrarian transformation that is currently reshaping rural society in the Northeast was already there in the 1960s\u2014but it was invisible to most observers who were blinded by their preconceptions about the Isan people being a tradition-bound peasantry.\nBecause the agrarian transformation of Northeast Thailand is still very much a work in progress, it would be foolhardy to try to predict in detail how it will turn out in the future. What is already evident, however, is that the traditional subsistence-oriented agricultural system has largely been replaced by a capitalist market-oriented one inextricably linked to the national and global markets, just as the old village-centric social system has been subsumed into a multiplicity of extra-local networks that tie Isan villagers ever more closely into the larger world. Barring a catastrophic meltdown of the global system, it can reasonably be expected that Northeast Thailand will become more deeply integrated into national, regional, and global economic and social systems.\nThe writing of this paper was supported by a grant (BRG5680008) from the Thailand Research Fund (TRF) Basic Research Program, but the views expressed in it are not necessarily shared by TRF. Although I am solely responsible for the views expressed in this paper, my thinking about Isan has been strongly influenced by intellectual exchanges over the years with many colleagues at Khon Kaen University, including the late Terd Charoenwatana, Aran Patanothai, Suchint Simaraks, Patma Vitayakon Rambo, Nongluck Suphanchaimat, Viriya Limpinuntana, and Banyong Toomsan. I am particularly indebted to Fukui Hayao and Terry and Somluckrat Grandstaff, who have so generously shared their vast knowledge of the Northeast with me in our many conversations over the years. I want to thank George W. Lovelace and John S. Parsons for their helpful comments on earlier drafts of this paper.\nAnalaya Nansaior; Aran Patanothai; Rambo, A. Terry; and Suchint Simaraks. 2011.

        "raw_content": "Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2014 for Max Planck researcher Stefan Hell\nStefan W. Hell, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Goettingen has been awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Chemistry; he shares the prize with Eric Betzig and William E. Moerner\nIMAGE: This is Professor Dr. Stefan W. Hell. view more\nCredit: MPI f. Biophysical Chemistry\n\"I was sitting in my office when the call from Stockholm reached me. I am enormously gratified that my work and that of my colleagues has received the highest distinction for scientific research\", says Stefan Hell. Max Planck President Martin Stratmann congratulated the newly elected Nobel laureate: \"This is a wonderful recognition of the pioneering achievements of Stefan Hell. A researcher is recognized who had the courage to overcome obstacles, paving new paths and challenge seemingly incontestable beliefs.\" Stefan Hell is the 18th Nobel Prize winner from the Max Planck Society.\nWith the invention of the STED (Stimulated Emission Depletion) microscopy experimentally realized by Hell in 1999, he has revolutionized light microscopy. Conventional light microscopes reach their resolution limit when two similar objects are closer than 200 nanometers (millionth of a millimetre) to each other because the diffraction of light blurs them to a single image feature. This limit discovered about 130 years ago by Ernst Abbe - and chiseled in stone in a memorial in Jena (Germany) - had been considered an insurmountable hurdle. The same limit by diffraction also applies to fluorescence microscopy which is frequently used in biology and medicine. For biologists and physicians, this meant a massive restriction - because for them, the observation of much smaller structures in living cells is decisive.\nThe 51-year-old physicist Stefan Hell was the first to radically overcome the resolution limit of light microscopes - with an entirely new concept. STED microscopy, invented and developed by him to application readiness, is the first focused light-microscopy method which is no longer fundamentally limited by diffraction. It allows an up to ten times greater detailed observation in living cells and makes structures visible that are much smaller than 200 nanometres. \"Back then I intuitively felt that something has not been thought through thoroughly,\" Hell recalls.\nIn order to overcome the phenomenon of light diffraction, he and his team applied a trick. The focal spot of the fluorescence excitation beam is accompanied by a doughnut-shaped \"STED beam\" that switches off fluorophores at the spot periphery by effectively confining them to the ground state. In contrast, molecules at the doughnut center can dwell in the fluorescence \"on\" state and fluoresce freely. The resolution is typically improved by up to ten times compared with conventional microscopes, meaning that labelled protein complexes with separation of only 20-50 nanometers can be discerned. As the brightness of the STED beam is increased, the spot in which molecules can fluoresce is further reduced in size. As a consequence, the resolution of the system can be increased, in principle, to molecular dimensions.\nBy developing special fast recording techniques for the STED microscopy, Hell's team further succeeded in recording fast movements within living cells. They reduced the exposure time for single images in such a dramatic way that they could film in real-time the movements within living nerve cells with a resolution of 65 to 70 nanometers - a 3 to 4 times better resolution compared to conventional light microscopes.\nWith his outstanding work Stefan Hell has pushed open a door towards new insights into what happens on the molecular scale of life - a door which was believed for a long time to be non-existent. STED microscopy offers plenty of potential for research on disease or the development of drugs, Hell explains. \"If one can directly observe how a drug affects the cell, the development time of new therapeutic agents could be reduced enormously.\"\nAbout Stefan Hell\nStefan W. Hell (born in 1962) received his doctorate in physics from the University of Heidelberg in 1990, followed by a research stay at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg. From 1993 to 1996, he worked as a senior researcher at the University of Turku, Finland, where he developed the principle of STED microscopy. In 1997, he moved to the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in G\u00f6ttingen (Germany), where he set up his current research group dedicated to sub-diffraction-resolution microscopy. He was appointed a Max Planck Director in 2002 and currently leads the Department of NanoBiophotonics at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry and the Department of Optical Nanoscopy at the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg (Germany). He is an honorary professor of experimental physics at the University of G\u00f6ttingen and adjunct professor of physics at the University of Heidelberg.\nStefan Hell has received numerous national and international awards, including the Prize of the International Commission for Optics (2000), the Carl Zeiss Research Award (2002), the Innovation Award of the German Federal President (2006), the Julius Springer Award for Applied Physics (2007), the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize (2008), the Lower Saxony State Award (2008), the Otto Hahn Prize for Physics (2009), the Ernst Hellmut Vits Prize (2010), the Familie-Hansen-Prize (2011), the K\u00f6rber European European Science Prize (2011), the Gothenburg Lise Meitner Prize (2010/11), the Science Prize of the Fritz Behrens Foundation (2012), the Paul Karrer Medal (2013), the Carus Medal of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina (2013) and the Kavli Prize in Nanoscience (2014). Stefan Hell has honorary doctorates from the Universities of Turku (Finland) and Vasile Goldis (Romania) as well as from the University Polytehnica of Bucharest (Romania).\ncrotte@mpibpc.mpg.de\nStefan W.

        "raw_content": "Peugeot E-Legend hints at electric, autonomous future\nPeugeot's E-Legend concept has features that recall the 504 Coupe including the name badge on a long, sloping hood.\nPARIS -- Peugeot looked to the past for inspiration for its latest concept vehicle, the E-Legend, which will debut at the Paris auto show Oct. 2.\nThe sleek two-door coupe is ready for an electric and autonomous future but evokes the Pininfarina-styled 504 Coupe that debuted in 1969.\n\"We didn\u2019t mean to do a remake of the 504 Coupe,\" Peugeot design director Gilles Vidal said. \"We wanted to make the point that the future can be exciting. There are some aspects and details that connect it to the 504 but it's not neo-retro.\u201d\nTouches that recall the 504 Coupe, which stayed in production until 1983, include the model name badge on a sloping hood, black trim at the base of the roof pillar, knife-edged fenders \u2014 and overall proportions that signal \"sports coupe.\"\n\"The long hood and short trunk are imprinted on everybody's mind. It's a recognizable form,\" Vidal said. \"This is pushing the form language into the future.\" One clue that the E-Legend isn't a by-the-numbers remake of the 504 is found in the roof pillar trim.\nEmbedded in the trim is a small screen that greets the driver by name and lets him or her know that the car is ready for autonomous or manual driving.\nInside, the 504 connection is reinforced with pleated aquamarine velour seating surfaces.\nThe rest of the interior is pure futuristic concept, with a wraparound screen spanning the footwell that can be used for entertainment, navigation or monitoring the car\u2019s running condition. In autonomous (or what Peugeot calls \"office\") mode, the steering wheel and instrument screen retract and the seats recline and lower to create a theater effect.\nTech collaboration The E-Legend is also an opportunity for PSA Group to show off its latest technology collaboration, with SoundHound, a Silicon Valley company that specializes in voice recognition. The concept was styled by Nicolas Brissonneau (exterior) and Christophe Pialat (interior).\nThe overall user experience and human-machine interface (HMI) came together under PSA Group's UXCT program, which includes teams from a dozen specialties such as infotainment, ergonomics, coding and sound design. Peugeot has no plans to produce the E-Legend, but executives noted that its dimensions are similar to those of a normal production car and that its styling is purposely approachable.\n\"We wanted to generate an accessible experience, for us and for our customers,\" said Matthias Hossann, Peugeot's director of concept cars and advanced design. \"We didn't want to be literal. We wanted to put a twist on autonomous driving.\"",

Early work as a sign artist and a fine art education in high school led Michael to the U of I, where he majored in graphic design. During his time at the U of I, Michael also worked as an art director for the weekly independent magazine the Buzz and as a political cartoonist for the Daily Illini. \"Graphic design was appealing to me because it is art, but there is something really mathematical about it,\" Michael says. \"It is practical but expressive.\"\nMichael cites his involvement with a course focused on Ninth Letter, in which students collaborate to produce that arts and literary journal, as one of his best preparatory opportunities for life as a professional designer. \"That class is a live work experience where you have an art director, co-designers, and photographers working with prewritten copy to please a client,\" Michael explains. \"It was frustrating because there was a lot of extra work that we did that didn't end up in the final issue, but I think it prepared us for the real world. You don't always have the creative freedom as a professional that you do as a student.\"\nDuring his senior portfolio review in Chicago, Michael connected with U of I alumnus Gabe Usabel. After an interview two weeks later, Michael was hired as a graphic designer at Ogilvy and Mather, an international advertising, marketing, and public relations agency.\nMichael emphasizes that networking is just as important to professional success as technical skills. \"Meet people whose work you admire\u2014reach out to them,\" he encourages. \"It doesn't have to be with the intention of finding a job. Ask to get coffee, or show them your work and ask for feedback. Do anything to break the ice.\"",

        "raw_content": "Conveyor Design and Conveyor Technologies\nA conveyor system, especially the conveyor belt, is a system that allows the modern world to exist as it is. Conveyance is a method of moving materials between points for various purposes.\nThe task of conveyor manufacturers is to provide for this as efficiently as possible. Conveyor design applies to a range of industries, and their usefulness is clear. Additionally, there are various conveyances and conveyance technologies available. These are available for different purposes. Eg, the transportation of bulk and heavy materials.\nIndustries that Use the Conveyor Belt and Similar Systems\nAs mentioned, the conveyor system is useful in a range of industries, thanks to its versatility of use:\nA conveyor belt can transport materials between two locations on different levels. This would be difficult, strenuous, and inefficient when done through human labour.\nConveyor manufacturers are able to install these systems almost anywhere. It is also done much more safely than a forklift or some other means of conveyance.\nA suitable conveyance method is able to move loads of many shapes, sizes, and weights. Additionally, modern systems have required safety features that reduce accidents.\nThe range of options available for conveyor design is high. From system design and fabrication to final installation.\nThe nature of the systems provided by conveyor manufacturers are multi-purpose. Indeed, their utility extends to a massive number of industries. The mining, automotive, agricultural, food processing, and packaging industries are a few.\nBenefits of a Conveyor System Over Other Conveyance Methods\nAs mentioned, good conveyor design allows for massive advantages over other conveyance methods. This especially includes human labour or machinery.\nThese benefits are many:\nConveyance from one elevation to another, or separate levels in a building is easier. Moving huge loads on one end to their destination occurs within a matter of seconds. Conversely, this would take other methods a matter of hours to complete.\nConveyor technologies can move conveyances in either direction. This is especially useful over long distances. In this way, they can drop the need for two conveyor systems moving in either direction.\nConveyors enjoy the advantage of efficiency and simplicity. A conveyor system is energy efficient compared to other means of conveyance. It also has an efficient design. This is thanks to the small number of moving parts.\nModern conveyors utilise impact and wear resistant materials in their construction. Those that convey heavy loads need durable parts to avoid breakdowns from wear.\nThe safety aspect of a system utilising a conveyor belt or similar system is important. Conveyor technologies change with the ever-increasing priority of workplace safety.\nGrowth in the Usage of Conveyor Technologies\nThe conveyor system has seen an increasing demand over time. The value of these systems means they are the most effective and efficient available.\nConveyor manufacturers most often supply line shaft roller conveyors, chain conveyors, and others. Additionally, the commercial and civil sectors have an increasing need for conveyors. They tool them into baggage handlers at airports, and conveyance at shopping malls.\nFacet Engineering, Professional Conveyor Manufacturers\nFacet Engineering are leaders in not just conveyance, but also process engineering. We design, manufacture, and install plant and machinery as they relate to our business.\nOur expertise is thanks to a many years spent working with process systems. This also extends to materials handling systems and conveyor systems.\nWe are able to provide our clients with their process and conveyance needs.

        "title": "Twenty Years of Stimulus for East Germany | Frontier Centre For Public Policy",
        "raw_content": "Twenty Years of Stimulus for East Germany\nCommentary, Frontier Centre, Global, Role of Government, Taxation, Worth A Look November 9, 2009\nEconomically, reunification has been devastating for the east. It need not have been.\nTwo decades after the fall of the Berlin Wall, West German politicians look on with satisfaction at the results of 20 years of reconstructing East Germany. East German town centers have been beautifully restored, prefabricated socialist buildings widely refurbished, highways expanded and upgraded. The social welfare network is tightly woven while unemployment benefits include paid vacation.\nAt first glance, East Germany seems far ahead of its neighboring countries of Poland and the Czech Republic, whose economy also underwent a transformation from a socialist planned economy to a market-driven one. But a bitter truth remains, although unspoken: While the economies of Poland and the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia have managed to get on their own feet, East Germany is still fed intravenously by its western half. East Germans consume more than they produce, a gap of at least 20%. The East German economy is anything but self-supporting.\nThis failure is taboo to speak of. The admission is especially hard to stomach as financial aid from West Germany has been more than generous: \u20ac1.3 trillion ($1.9 trillion) since 1990.\nWhy have the effects of West German financial aid been so limited?\nOne of the most important reasons for the current plight was the monetary union. Based purely on political considerations, the West German government in 1990 valued the eastern mark at half of the West German mark, a ratio of two to one. For wages an even higher ratio of 1-to-1 was set. As it turned out, this was an overvaluation of over 500%. The black market going rate at the time of 10-to-1 was more realistic. The negative repercussions as a result of the generosity of the West German government were soon felt. Although workers\u2019 savings were only reduced by half, effective labor costs skyrocketed. East Germany priced itself out of the marketplace. The Soviet zone soon turned into a de-industrialized zone. While workers got to keep their savings accounts, they lost their jobs. Despite herculean efforts over the next 19 years, East Germany never recovered from this initial shock. Today 95% of all businesses in East Germany have less than 50 employees.\nAlso from purely populist motives, the path to wage equalization was rashly paved, with West German unions playing a disreputable role. Despite low productivity, wages were raised. This was not all: Regulations included a 40-hour work week, a ban on Saturday work and overtime limits. On top of this were lavish perks that ranged from sick pay and vacation allowance to weeks-long spa visits.\nFor East German companies that already had trouble repaying the loans taken out to buy new equipment and fixtures, their situation often became financially intolerable. Moreover, new regulations regarding workers\u2019 right to participate in decision making, particularly in terms of refurbishment and restructuring, added to the woes.\nFlying the banner of equality, the disastrous strategy of the unions continues until today. Just a few weeks ago, the steel workers\u2019 union celebrated that \u201cthe 35-hour week has now reached the east.\u201d Today no more than 8,000 steel workers are the beneficiaries, when at the start of wage equalization there were 60,000.\nThe unavoidable loss of jobs was however not dealt with by greater flexibility but through expensive state spending programs: job creation schemes, a publicly financed employment sector and training measures. They had one thing in common: All of these programs neglected businesses\u2019 real needs. The results were therefore limited, to put it mildly. Just 4% of participants in state-financed job-creation programs found employment afterwards.\nThe conclusion after many years of state-financed employment assistance is apparent. No measure, no matter how good, can replace work experience in an actual firm. Wage subsidies to employers have proved to be most effective. When job-creation schemes turned out to produce little effect, cities and towns took a different approach: The public sector began to take on ever-increasing numbers of employees themselves. The consequence today is overstaffed state offices and budget deficits. At the same time, problems have intensified the tension between the employment market and the social-welfare system. There is a disincentive for people to work a 40-hour week if the wages they earn are only slightly higher than the unemployment benefits they would receive for doing little or nothing.\nWhat\u2019s more, after reunification, with a few exceptions, West German law was extended to the eastern part. Like a net, laws, regulations and policies were cast over East German companies. Company law, business law and accountancy law were not only unfamiliar but had been tailored to West Germany\u2019s highly sophisticated economy. What might have been a handicap for a competitive West German company often became a stranglehold for East German companies.\nToday, what had been achieved in 20 years of \u201cAufbau Ost\u201d (building the East) is under threat. Due to their low wage costs\u2014only 25 % of those in Germany\u2014flexible labor regulations and weak currencies, Central European companies soon became competitors of East German firms after 1990. Most attractive for West German investment have been Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Nearly all major German firms have not only established offices there but production plants as well: Volkswagen, Beiersdorf, MAN, Siemens, to name a few. Their main market still remained West Germany.\nThe competitiveness of Central and East European countries continues to improve. Up to now, they have been competitors in the construction and trade sectors, but they are increasingly vying for business in the mechanical-engineering and engineering-services sectors.\nThe new rivals from the East, not to mention global competition, now threaten all that has been achieved in East Germany. This includes the shipbuilding industry, which has undergone arduous years of restructuring. The same goes for certain sections of the car and car supplier industries, the solar industry as well as the chip and IT industry.\nThe German reunification was politically a great stroke of luck. West Germany has however not taken full advantage afforded by the event to make necessary reforms to revamp its antiquated welfare system.\nThe German government has not been able to reform the welfare state. This is especially surprising given that the high level of social welfare benefits in Germany came about partly as a result of the propaganda war between East and West during the Cold War. Each side was determined to show its population that they were better off than the people on the other side of the wall. The two governments ignored the economic consequences of creating such unaffordable welfare systems. And after reunification, the social welfare system was neither remodeled in West Germany nor reconceived in East Germany.\nWithout sweeping reforms in the whole of Germany, East Germany will not only stagnate but will slide ever further behind economically. There is much to celebrate about the reunification of Germany. But economically, it has been a disaster for the East. And more than \u20ac1 trillion later, the costs of those policy errors is being paid in the west as well.\nMr. Hummel is deputy director of the State Ministry of Finance for Berlin.",

The only right way to achieve this gold is to work with experienced crating and shipping companies. However, while to find the right freight shippers is undoubtedly very important, it is no less important to ensure that all the services they offer come at reasonable prices. The next question is: can you negotiate rates with crating and shipping companies?\nWhether you are looking for a reliable art crating service, want to safely ship a collection of antiques overseas, or need a smart heavy equipment transport solution, the truth is that you can always negotiate rates with crating and shipping companies. For example, at Fine Art Shippers, we not only offer our art shipping services at very competitive prices, but we are always ready to look for the most cost-effective solution suitable for the client\u2019s requirements. This does not mean that we will reduce the quality of our services; this means that we will provide you with different options within your budget so that you could make a fully informed decision.\nHere are several more tips that can help you negotiate rates with crating and shipping companies:\nAsk about discounts. The more you ship, the better rates you get. Besides, many crating and shipping companies offer discounts based on volume, various memberships, type of the transported items, and other factors.\nEstablish a long-term relationship. In most cases, if you establish a long-term relationship with a freight company, you will get better deals without sacrificing the quality of service and speed of delivery.\nUnderstand the factors that affect shipping costs. Instead of negotiating the entire shipping cost, try to understand which factors directly affect the quote. While you cannot change the weight, quantity, and destination of the transported items, you can lower the cost of some other factors, such as the number of people involved in the transportation process or the type of vehicle used.\nKnow the rates of the company\u2019s competitors. Do some research to know the rates charged by other crating and shipping companies for the same services. This will help you negotiate with your freight shippers.\nHopefully, these tips will help you find the right freight shippers and lower the costs of the shipping process!",

        "raw_content": "The Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of holy men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. We accept the Holy Bible, as recorded in the Old and New Testament, as God\u2019s infallible Word, the ultimate authority in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine. (2 Timothy 3:15-16, 1 Peter 1:23-25, 2 Peter 1:19-21)\nOur God is one, but manifested in three persons \u2013 the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit being equal. (Matthew 3:16-17, 28:19, Philippians 2:6)\nMAN, HIS FALL AND REDEMPTION\nMan is a created being made in the likeness and in the image of God, but through Adam\u2019s transgression and fall, sin came into the world (Romans 5:12). \u201cAll have sinned and come short of the glory of God\u201d (Romans 3:23). \u201cAs it is written, there is none righteous, no not one\u201d (Romans 3:10). Jesus Christ, the Son of God was manifested to undo the work of the devil and gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God (Ephesians 2:8-9).\nMan\u2019s first step toward salvation is Godly sorrow that works repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). The new birth is necessary to all men (John 3:3-5), and when fulfilled, produces eternal life (1 John 5:12). Salvation is a gift from God received by grace through faith. (Ephesians 2:8-9).\nWe believe that the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, primarily evidenced by speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance, is for all believers as promised by John the Baptist (Mat 3:11), Jesus (Acts 1:4, 5, 8), and Peter (Acts 2:38-41) and as witnessed by the early disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 2:1-4; Acts 8:12-19; 10:44-46; 19:1-6).\nWe believe the Holy Spirit to be the third person of the Trinity whose purpose in the redemption of man is to convict men of sin, regenerate, indwell, and guide the believer into all truth, and give gifts to believers as He wills, that they may minister as Christ would, to men. We believe any believer that yields to the Holy Spirit should experience the manifestations of all the Spiritual gifts mentioned in (1 Corinthians 12:8-10, Luke 11:13; John 7:37-39, 14:16, 17, 16:7-14; Acts 2:39-48).\nThe Bible teaches that without holiness no man can see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14). We believe in the doctrine of sanctification as a definite, yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of salvation (1 Thessalonians 5:23; 1Peter 3:18; 2 Corinthians 3:18; Philippians 3:12-14, and 1 Corinthians 1:30).\nWhile we believe that God uses doctors, medicines, and other material means for healing, we also believe that divine healing is provided in the atonement (Isaiah 53:5) and may be appropriated by laying on of hands by elders (James 5:14-16) or by believers (Mark 16:18), by the prayers of any believer gifted for healing the sick (I Corinthians 12:9), or by a direct act of receiving this provision by faith (Mark 11:23).\nRESURRECTION OF BELIEVERS AND THE RETURN OF THE LORD\nWe believe in the physical, bodily return of the Lord Jesus Christ. The angels said, \u201cThis same Jesus shall so come in like manner\u201d (Acts 1:11). His coming is imminent. When He comes, \u201cThe dead in Christ shall rise first; then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air\u2026\u201d (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 1:7)\nWe believe that the Scriptures clearly set forth the doctrines of eternal punishment for the lost and eternal life for the saved (Matthew 25:34, 41, 46; John 14:1-3; Revelation 20:11-15).\nThe one who physically dies in his sins without Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the lake of fire and, therefore, has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or for repentance (Hebrews 9:27). The terms \u201ceternal\u201d and \u201cever-lasting\u201d, used in describing the duration of the punishment of the damned (Matthew 25:41-46) in the lake of fire, carry the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in denoting the duration of joy and ecstasy of saints in the presence of God.",

Amen.\nTHEME VERSE FOR TODAY James 5:16, NCV\nConfess your sins to each other and pray for each other so God can heal you.\nOLD TESTAMENT READING 1 Kings 18:22-39, CEB\n22 Elijah said to the people, \u201cI am the last of the Lord\u2019s prophets, but Baal\u2019s prophets number four hundred fifty. 23 Give us two bulls. Let Baal\u2019s prophets choose one. Let them cut it apart and set it on the wood, but don\u2019t add fire. I\u2019ll prepare the other bull, put it on the wood, but won\u2019t add fire. 24 Then all of you will call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord. The god who answers with fire\u2014that\u2019s the real God!\u201d\nAll the people answered, \u201cThat\u2019s an excellent idea.\u201d\n25 So Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, \u201cChoose one of these bulls. Prepare it first since there are so many of you. Call on the name of your god, but don\u2019t add fire.\u201d\n26 So they took one of the bulls that had been brought to them. They prepared it and called on Baal\u2019s name from morning to midday. They said, \u201cGreat Baal, answer us!\u201d But there was no sound or answer. They performed a hopping dance around the altar that had been set up.\n27 Around noon, Elijah started making fun of them: \u201cShout louder! Certainly he\u2019s a god! Perhaps he is lost in thought or wandering or traveling somewhere. Or maybe he is asleep and must wake up!\u201d\n28 So the prophets of Baal cried with a louder voice and cut themselves with swords and knives as was their custom. Their blood flowed all over them. 29 As noon passed they went crazy with their ritual until it was time for the evening offering. Still there was no sound or answer, no response whatsoever.\n30 Then Elijah said to all the people, \u201cCome here!\u201d All the people closed in, and he repaired the Lord\u2019s altar that had been damaged. 31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob\u2014to whom the Lord\u2019s word came: \u201cYour name will be Israel.\u201d 32 He built the stones into an altar in the Lord\u2019s name, and he dug a trench around the altar big enough to hold two seahs of dry grain. 33 He put the wood in order, butchered the bull, and placed the bull on the wood. \u201cFill four jars with water and pour it on the sacrifice and on the wood,\u201d he commanded. 34 \u201cDo it a second time!\u201d he said. So they did it a second time. \u201cDo it a third time!\u201d And so they did it a third time. 35 The water flowed around the altar, and even the trench filled with water. 36 At the time of the evening offering, the prophet Elijah drew near and prayed: \u201cLord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant. I have done all these things at your instructions. 37 Answer me, Lord! Answer me so that this people will know that you, Lord, are the real God and that you can change their hearts.\u201d 38 Then the Lord\u2019s fire fell; it consumed the sacrifice, the wood, the stones, and the dust. It even licked up the water in the trench!\n39 All the people saw this and fell on their faces. \u201cThe Lord is the real God! The Lord is the real God!\u201d they exclaimed.\nNEW TESTAMENT READING Acts 12:1-16, GNT\nAbout that time King Herod devoted his attention to mistreating certain members of the church. 2 He had James, the brother of John, executed. 3 When he saw how this pleased the Jews, he arrested Peter too. This happened during the days of Unleavened Bread. 4 After capturing Peter, Herod had him thrown into prison with sixteen soldiers in squads of four to guard him. Herod wanted to bring Peter to trial in front of the people after Passover. 5 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was praying very hard to God for him.\n6 The night before Herod was going to bring Peter to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers. His hands were bound with two chains, and guards were in front of the door. They were watching the prison.\n7 Suddenly, an angel from the Lord stood near Peter, and his cell was filled with light. The angel nudged Peter\u2019s side, woke him up, and said, \u201cHurry! Get up!\u201d At that moment the chains fell from Peter\u2019s hands.\n8 The angel told him, \u201cPut your shoes on, and get ready to go!\u201d Peter did this. Then the angel told him, \u201cPut your coat on, and follow me.\u201d\n9 Peter followed the angel out of the cell. He didn\u2019t realize that what the angel was doing was actually happening. He thought he was seeing a vision. 10 They passed the first and second guardposts and came to the iron gate that led into the city. This gate opened by itself for them, so they went outside and up the street. The angel suddenly left Peter.\n11 When Peter came to his senses, he said, \u201cNow I\u2019m sure that the Lord sent his angel to rescue me from Herod and from everything the Jewish people are expecting to happen to me.\u201d\n12 When Peter realized what had happened, he went to the home of Mary, the mother of John Mark. Many people had gathered at her home and were praying. 13 Peter knocked on the door of the entryway, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer. 14 When she recognized Peter\u2019s voice, she was so happy that instead of opening the door, she ran back inside and reported, \u201cPeter is standing at the door!\u201d\n15 The people told her, \u201cYou\u2019re crazy!\u201d But she insisted that Peter was at the door. They said, \u201cIt has to be his angel.\u201d\n16 But Peter kept knocking. When they opened the door, they were shocked to see him.\nJames 5:17-18, NCV\n17 Elijah was a human being just like us. He prayed that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years! 18 Then Elijah prayed again, and the rain came down from the sky, and the land produced crops again.\nSERMON Prayers\nElijah was a man of prayer. He was God's messenger in the time of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel, an especially evil, royal couple who did not not worship the one true God of Ahab's ancestors, but the gods, the baals of Jezebel's heritage. Elijah prayed that God would withhold the rain to teach them a lesson. During that drought, Elijah found refuge with a widow and her son. When her son died, Elijah prayed over him, and the son was restored to life. Later Elijah challenged Jezebel's prophets of Baal at Mt. Carmel, as we read in our Old Testament story today. Elijah demonstrated the power of prayer to the One True God when God sent fire to consume the water drenched offering, the altar and even the water in the surrounding trench in response to Elijah's prayers. Soon after that, rains did come.\nDaniel is another hero of the Old Testament who believed in the importance of prayer even when he and his companions were exiled to the King's court in Babylon. When the king demanded to know the meaning of his dream, Daniel and his friends prayed for God to reveal that answer. A later king was tricked by jealous advisors to make a law saying no one could pray to anyone but the king. Still Daniel kept his faith practice of opening a window and praying toward Jerusalem three times a day. For that he was thrown in the lion's den, but I suspect the concerned king who liked Daniel was praying in his own way that Daniel would be safe through the night. God answered these prayers by keeping the mouths of the lions closed all night.\nIn our story from the New Testament, friends in the early church were praying for Peter when he was in prison. When he was released he thought at first it was a dream, but it was real. When he showed up at the door, Rhoda was so shocked she closed the door on him. But there Peter was, in answer to all their prayers.\nOur theme verse from James reminds us of the power of prayer. When we pray for others there can be healing. The prayers of the faithful are effective, great things can happen. Whether we are praying for others or for our own needs, these stories and scriptures demonstrate the power of prayer.\nToday's scripture cards include these promises:\n1 John 5:14, GW\nI assure you that if two of you agree on earth about anything you ask, then my Father who is in heaven will do it for you.\nMatthew 18:19. CEB\nUse simple words when you pray. It doesn't have to be long of fancy. Sometimes in a group setting whether with children or adults, I like to use prayers that simply fill in the sentence. \"God help____,\" or \"God Bless_____.\" Lately I've just been using the prayer response, \"Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.\" knowing that God indeed hears the needs I haven't been able to express in words. I like the Jesus Prayer, \"Lord, Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a Sinner.\" Sometimes I just say, \"Lord, you know the need.\" whether it's for the siren I heard or knowing someone is in the hospital, etc. You can find prayers in devotionals, our worship bulletins, the Psalms, in prayer books or even the hymnal for many songs are prayers.\nRomans 8:26 promises:\n\"the Spirit helps us with our weakness. We do not know how to pray as we should. But the Spirit himself speaks to God for us, even begs God for us with deep feelings that words cannot explain.\" Romans 8:26, NCV\nKeep your prayers sincere and honest. Just pray! I like the acronym P.U.S.H. which stands for \"Pray until something happens.\"\nGod answers our prayers, but we have to remember that God knows and wants what is best for us. Sometimes the answer is NO, sometimes it is yes, sometimes the answer is wait, and sometimes as Lucado says the answer is \"More than we can imagine.\"\nMy Story from Monday, August 27 - Friday, September 7 illustrates this. I had written a letter to send that day standing up for myself with regard to some concerns with my apartment. By the next morning, with regard to that and other areas of my life I hit deep despair, but when I got to work I prayed for God to send hope. In less than two minutes a colleague walked through the door. She sat and talked and prayed and ministered to me for an hour and a half, an answer to my prayer. Later I shared with others and asked them to pray for me. I began hearing options to my housing dilemma and started to explore the possibilities. I continued praying as I pursued the suggestion to buy a home, asking that if this is right it will go through. I had never considered owning property until it was suggested as one option. To my surprise I qualified for a grant and a loan. We looked at houses. The realtor told to me to contact my prayer warriors as she put in the bid. I trusted that if this was God's will, the obstacles will be cleared. Eleven days after first hearing the suggestion to buy a house, that bid was accepted. Seeing that God could do this gave me hope that God could also resolve the rest of what troubled me. I let go of my stress as God continued to answer many prayers. God answered with more than I could imagine.\nThis is incentive to keep praying for our own needs and for one another even for the difficult situations in our lives and around the world. Prayer is a form of expressing our hope.\nIn his book, Unshakeable Hope, Max Lucado shares the story of Dimitri (pp. 53ff) While I read it straight from the book in worship, I'll summarize the story online. Dimitri was a Russian citizen in a time when expressions of Christian faith were suppressed. When Dimitri and his family could no longer go to church, he began to teach his family from the Bible at home. Others joined them. When they were harrassed by authorities, instead of being discouraged the gathering grew until not everyone who wanted to hear would even fit inside their home but crowded around to hear at windows or doors. Dimitri was arrested thinking this would end it all, but in prison he prayed, he sang a hymn of praise every morning, he reminded himself of scripture promises with scribbled notes he stuck on the walls. The guards tried to stop him, but he continued. This went on for 17 years. Eventually they tried to get him to believe that his wife was dead and his children abandoned. They nearly had him convinced to sign a document renouncing his faith. But the night before that signing ceremony, God allowed him supernaturally to hear the voices of his wife and family praying for him. When morning came, he refused to sign anything, knowing that his family was well. The guards had lied. They beat him and threatened to execute him, but as they dragged him out, hundreds of other prisoners began to sing the song of praise Dimitri had sung to God each day. Eventually those who held him captive gave up, and he was restored to his family.\nPrayer is an act of faith and hope, that God is ultimately in charge and we surrender our lives to the one who created and loves us. When you need hope, turn to God and pray.",

With audio books you can listen while you walk or run, as you work out at home or the gym, while you are tending your garden, or when you are stuck in traffic. It\u2019s also easier to go back and listen again to reinforce the learning, when you likely would not sit down and re-read the book. Of course some books are better suited to browsing, or you might want to make notes in margins and keep them around for future reference. In those cases the printed version would be more appropriate.\nEdited by John Stevens Sensei",

        "title": "Sciatica - Florida Pain Website",
        "raw_content": "Sciatica is a type of pain that occurs within the sciatic nerve. This nerve is the largest nerve in the human body, and it extends from the back to the lower regions of the legs, within the back area. When there is damage to the sciatica, the pain is generally present within one side of the body, but it will extend down the entire area of the body, from the lower back to the buttocks, and then into the legs, ending with the feet. While this condition can be difficult to deal with, getting prompt treatment within a timely manner will ensure that your sciatica doesn\u2019t get worse over time, and pain relief can be found.\nFacts about Sciatica\nMany people think that sciatica pain is the same for everyone, but this is a misconception. Sciatica pain can differ greatly from one person to another, which is dependent upon the area where the compression is present on the nerve.\nSciatica pain can actually lead to damage that cannot be reduced. While some believe that this condition is always treatable, if left without the proper treatment, it can cause serious health issues. Pain is a common symptom with sciatica, while in the early stages, but if you experience numbing and bladder inconsistency, immediate medical attention should be sought.\nAs mentioned, not everyone will experience the same symptoms from this nerve condition. However, some symptoms tend to be universal, and these symptoms may be present on their own, or there may be several present in the patient. They include:\nPain present in the rear area or leg.\nThis pain often gets worse while sitting down.\nProfound loss of sensation.\nA tingling sensation within the leg.\nA burning sensation in the leg.\nDifficulty moving the leg or foot affected.\nMay have numbness and weak feeling in the leg.\nA constant pain in the lower back or buttocks that does not get better over time.\nA sudden, sharp and shooting pain that occurs within the leg, and can make it difficult to stand.\nGenerally, the pain of sciatica will be located on one side of the body. However, there are some cases where the symptoms spread from one side of the body to the other. Some people may not be affected by the pain, while others can experience pain that is so difficult to deal with, that they may take time off off work or be unable to complete their normal activities. In some cases, the pain will be focused within the foot region, and the patient may be unable to walk.\nDiagnostic Testings\nIf sciatica is suspected, your doctor will often do a physical examination, which will include questions about the pain experienced when pressure is applied to certain areas. If you have the symptoms of sciatica, the doctor will then do an X-ray, or possibly and MRI, as this condition can show up on this imaging device clearly.\nSciatica occurs from irritation within the lower lumbar area of the spine, which causes the sciatic nerves to become sensitive, and then send painful signals throughout the body. While this is the most common cause, it can also occur due to:\nNarrowing of the spinal canal, also known as lumbar spinal stenosis, which occurs in the lower region of the back.\nOne of the many degenerative disc disorders, which cause the spine lack of proper cushioning in the spine.\nA slipped disc from the vertebral.\nThere are many treatment options available for pain relief, reduction, and management. The type used is dependent upon the severity of the condition and the amount of pain present. These include:\nPhysical therapy: Often used to try and prevent the condition from getting worse, this works to help repair the nerve.\nExercise Regular exercise improves lower-back pain, sciatica, and overall health by increasing blood flow, resulting in greater flexibility and range of motion.\nNutrition: Healthy eating habits offer many benefits for pain and overall good health.\nMedication: Several medications are used along with physical therapy to help control the amount of pain experienced by the patient.\nTranscutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation: TENS is the use of electric current produced by a device to stimulate the nerves for pain management.\nTrigger Point Injections: TPI addresses areas of muscle containing trigger points, such as knots of muscle formed through muscle spasms.\nLysis of adhesions: This procedure is effective in eliminating or reducing excessive scar tissue or adhesions in the epidural space.\nSteroid injections: These stop the nerve from causing pain by numbing the nerve, and then blocking the pain signals.\nSpinal Cord Stimulation: Typical used for individual with chronic and severe lower back pain.\nIntrathecal pump implants: This may provide for longer-term pain relief.\nSurgery: A more invasive treatment that repairs the nerve directly is surgery.\nnursingcenter.com/lnc/journalarticle",

        "raw_content": "Current Weather and Stream Conditions in the Smokies\nThe weather forecast is staying just about the same as it has been for the past\ncouple of weeks. So far, the 20 percent chance of rain that has been given for most\nrecent days has amounted to zero percent at my home near the Spur.\nNational Weather Service Forecast for Gatlinburg - Not Good . There's not\nmuch chance of rain, but there's hope. Looking at the forecast (see below), it\nappears that there's almost a one out of three chance (30%) it will rain this coming\nweekend. It appears that's about as good as it going to get.\nTuesday: A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2pm. Sunny\nand hot, with a high near 91.\nTuesday Night: A 10 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms before 8pm.\nWednesday: Sunny and hot, with a high near 93.\nWednesday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 65. South wind around 5 mph.\nThursday: A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2pm. Mostly\nsunny and hot, with a high near 91. Thursday Night: A 10 percent chance of\nshowers and thunderstorms before 8pm.\nFriday: A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Partly sunny and hot,\nwith a high near 91.

From a stream flow\nstandpoint, there's little difference in the current conditions and in what happened\nduring the quote, \"drought\" situation of 2007.\nAll three of these streams are nearing their all time low flow points.\nConcerning drought conditions, take a look at this U. S. Drought Monitor. It shows\nthe Smokies to be in great shape. Even from a drought forecast standpoint, this\nwebsite shows Tennessee and Western North Carolina to be in good shape. I\nguess that means the water table is still high, but I'm not sure that applies to the\nspecific area of the Great Smoky Mountains. I question its accuracy; however, you\ncan put what I know about droughts in a thimble. I just know the streams are very\nlow and the water temperatures are high and its only the first week of June.\nI drove up into the park yesterday afternoon and took the water temperature in the\nLittle Pigeon River near the Chimney Picnic Area. It was 67 degrees. That tells me\nthat anything below that elevation is getting too warm to fish during the late\nafternoons. I would recommend fishing even higher than that.",

        "title": "Enhanced Operational Efficiency With Data-Driven IT Strategy",
        "raw_content": "The U.S. beverage alcohol market has experienced tremendous growth over the last decade, primarily driven by the booming demand for whiskey and bourbon. Today, we see a great deal of opportunity where technology can drive efficiency and better decision making. At Brown-Forman, we embrace data analytics and SAAS to enhance collaboration and drive better decisions. We focus on those technologies that significantly impact the top and bottom line of operations and, ultimately, help shape financial outcomes.\nFrom a business perspective, effective management of data plays an important role in determining our production. Over the years, big data technology has been used to aggregate and process terabytes of consumer or production data or social media information to gain better insight.\nApart from data management, companies in the beverage alcohol sector today also need to connect the data to an analytic system for enhanced decision making. Better analysis of data helps us to recognize accurate consumer behavior. In such a scenario, data scientists aim to shape the company\u2019s future through establishing a link between our promotions, social messaging, and pricing that would allow us to achieve a higher performance.\nThe Strategic Positioning of IT\nThe beverage alcohol sector is a small part of the overall beverage industry. Most of the technologies we\u2019re implementing have been used in the past by other businesses. We customize those technologies to work effectively for us. It\u2019s more important how you apply those technologies to a business than if they are new.\nBeing part of a highly regulated global market, companies need to ensure their technologies and applications are complying with the industry norms. This leads to the strategic positioning of the IT department. To stay at the forefront of market competition, beverage alcohol organizations need to turn IT from a back office focused area to directly partnering with the business to help drive efficiency and revenue. They need to ensure IT is engaged as a part of the business so that IT Leadership can find the right tools and processes to alleviate the pain points.\nChanging role of IT\nAlthough the advancement of technology has evidently helped enterprises address various market challenges, it has also transformed the traditional role of IT. In order to remain at the forefront of market competition, I think companies must include IT operations with other management activities. With the evolving technology, IT team helps to drive efficiency, which ultimately increases the revenue for corporations. In Brown-Forman, IT has been directly aligned with our marketing group, corporate and global production functions for driving advancements and making consumer experiences better. Therefore, I think technology has strategically changed the functioning of IT.\nMy Advice for CIOs\nOver the last few years, the role of a CIO has changed. In the past, the CIO was primarily an IT operations head. Today, the CIO must also ensure that the overall IT strategies are in-line with corporate strategies. This is not exclusive to the beverage industry. CIOs working in any industry should understand their company\u2019s business needs and react quickly to drive improvement throughout their business. My overall advice is that CIOs properly structure the company\u2019s IT hierarchy so that it can have a bigger impact and drive the business.\nhttps://food.apacciooutlook.com/ciospeaks/enhanced-operational-efficiency-with-datadriven-it-strategy-nwid-1540.html?utm_source=google&utm_campaign=apacciooutlook_topslider",

        "raw_content": "\u201cBut the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be broken: and if it be sodden in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured, and rinsed in water. All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is most holy. And no sin offering, whereof any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the fire.\u201d \u2014Leviticus 6:28-30\nThe Personal Holiness Of Christ\nThe personal holiness of Christ was more strikingly presented in the sin offering than in any of the other sacrifices. The Holy Spirit through Moses said, \u201cIt is most holy.\u201d He even went so far as to say, \u201cWhatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be holy \u2026 All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is most holy\u201d (Lev. 6:27, 29). This was said of the meat offering, sin offering, and the trespass offering.\nConcerning this, Mackintosh said: \u201cThis is most marked and striking. The Holy Spirit did not need to guard with such jealousy the personal holiness of Christ in the burnt offering; but lest the soul should, by any means, lose sight of that holiness while contemplating the place which the Blessed One became the sin offering, we are again and again reminded of it by the words, \u2018It is most holy.\u2019\u201d\nMackintosh went on to say: \u201cThe same point is observable \u2018in the Law of the trespass offering\u2019 (Lev. 7:1\u20136). Never was the Lord Jesus more fully seen to be \u2018the Holy One of God\u2019 than when He was \u2018made sin\u2019 upon the cursed tree. The vileness and blackness of that with which He stood identified on the Cross, only served to show out more clearly that He was \u2018most holy.\u2019 Though a sin-bearer, He was sinless; though enduring the wrath of God, He was the Father\u2019s delight; though deprived of the light of God\u2019s countenance, He dwelt in the Father\u2019s bosom.\u201d\nAs should be obvious, this completely shoots down the erroneous theory of the Jesus died spiritually doctrine. This is taught by those of the Word of Faith group, which, in effect, states that Jesus became one with Satan on the Cross, died as a sinner, and went to the burning side of hell, where He was tortured for three days and nights, until God said, \u201cIt is enough.\u201d At that time, they continue to say, Jesus was born again, as any sinner must be born again in order to be saved. He was then resurrected from the dead.\nConsequently, their faith is not in what He did at the Cross, but rather of what He did, they claim, in the burning side of hell.\nThere is not one shred of this in the Bible. It is pure fiction from beginning to end. Also, the law of the sin offering, and that it was most holy in the eyes of the Lord, completely debunks the idea of Jesus dying spiritually on the Cross.\nOnce again, we go back to the fact that many of these erroneous doctrines are perpetrated on false ideas simply because the person doing the perpetrating doesn\u2019t know and understand the Old Testament or the veracity of the Cross of Christ. This is at least one of the many reasons that the book of Leviticus is of such significance. In the five sacrifices presented, it beautifully portrays the one sacrifice of Christ, thereby, giving us its vast significance, at least as far as we can understand such. The truth is, as human beings, we will never be able to fully comprehend and understand all that Christ did for us at the Cross. He not only addressed the human need, but, as well, He addressed what Satan did in his revolution against God, which originated sin (Eph. 1:10).\nThe Scripture is emphatic that, \u201cIn the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the LORD: it is most holy\u201d (Lev. 6:25).\nAs we have stated, the burnt offering stipulated Jesus Christ offering to God His total perfection, and doing so in sacrifice that the righteousness of God might be satisfied. There had to be a perfect victim who would give up his life, and that perfect victim was Christ because that perfect victim could only be Christ. No one else could fit the bill, so to speak!\nIn the sin offering, Christ would be the sin-bearer of the whole world, but in this, He would be looked at by God as even holier than in the representation of the burnt offering.\n\u201cThe priest who offers it for sin shall eat it: in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.\nWhatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be holy: and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon any garment, you shall wash that whereon it was sprinkled in the holy place\u201d (Lev. 6:26-27).\nGod gave the sin offering as food for the priests to bear the iniquity of the congregation and to make atonement for them (Lev. 10:17). Once again, we go back to John, Chapter 6, in the eating of the flesh and the drinking of the blood regarding Christ.\nThe flesh provided by the sin offering constituted a part of the livelihood of the priests as it constitutes our spiritual livelihood presently (Ezek. 44:28\u201329). The officiating priest to whom fell this obligation could invite not only his family but other priests and their sons to partake of it. Covetous priests abused this gift (Hos. 4:8). It was to be eaten in the Holy Place of the sanctuary. In fact, eight of the offerings (there were others besides the blood sacrifices) had to be eaten in the precincts of the sanctuary:\nThe flesh of the sin offering (Lev. 4:26).\nThe flesh of the trespass offering (Lev. 7:6).\nThe peace offering of the congregation (Lev. 23:19\u201320).\nThe remainder of the omer (Lev. 23:10\u201311).\nThe meat offering of the Israelites (Lev. 2:3\u201310).\nThe two loaves (Lev. 23:20).\nThe shewbread (Lev. 24:9).\nThe leper\u2019s log of oil (Lev. 14:10\u201313).\nSo peculiarly sacred was the sin offering that when any of its blood chanced to spurt upon the garment of the officiating priest or the one who brought the sacrifice, the spot that received the stain had to be washed in the room of the court provided for this purpose. Therein was a well that supplied the water for the sanctuary, thus preventing the blood from being profaned outside the Holy Place.\nThis proclaims to us the preciousness of the blood.\nIt was to be handled in two ways:\nIf it pertained to the priest who had sinned or the nation as a whole, some of the blood of the sacrifice was to be sprinkled seven times on the golden altar, with blood then applied to the four horns of that altar. The balance of the blood was to be poured out at the base of the brazen altar.\nIf it was a ruler who sinned, or the common people, the blood was not to be sprinkled on the golden altar or applied to its horns, but was rather to be applied to the horns of the brazen altar and then poured out at its base.\nAll of this means that extra care had to be taken that none of the blood was spilled any other place. If even one drop was spilled upon the garment of the priest who was doing the officiating, as stated, his garment had to be washed immediately, and done so in a particular place, i.e., the Holy Place. As stated, this proclaims the preciousness of the blood and, as well, that it was the shed blood of Christ that brought about our salvation because it represented the poured out life of Christ on the Cross (Eph. 2:13\u201318).\nThe Awfulness Of Sin\n\u201cBut the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be broken: and if it be sodden in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured, and rinsed in water. All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is most holy. And no sin offering, whereof any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the fire\u201d (Lev. 6:28-30). We learn from this of the awfulness of sin. So desperate a malady is sin that anything that came in contact with the sin offering had to be washed, broken, or scoured. All these regulations were calculated to express the polluting nature of sin and the translation of guilt from the sinner to the sacrifice. We learn from this, as well, that there are no such things as venial sins (small sins); the least sin deserves death.\nThis means that if we properly understand sin as we ought to, at the same time, in order to have peace, we, as well, must understand the Cross. Many believers, because of the guilt of condemnation, have been led to a mental and emotional anguish that has robbed them of all peace. In fact, some have even committed suicide under such stress. If a believer walks after the flesh (Rom. 8:1), such a believer will have a miserable lifestyle because of condemnation. He may confess the opposite and may deny such, but trying to ignore a 3,000-pound elephant in one\u2019s living room takes a stretch of the imagination. In other words, it cannot be done! The more consecrated a believer is, the more this problem presents itself. Such a believer wants to live right, wants to walk right, and wants to be right, but despite all of his efforts otherwise, finds himself doing wrong, with the wrong continually getting worse. In fact, Chapter 7 of Romans bears this out. It concludes with Paul saying, \u201cO wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?\u201d (Rom. 7:24). Regrettably, that\u2019s the exact state in which most of Christendom presently finds itself. They do not know how to address sin, at least according to the Word of God, which means they don\u2019t know how to have victory over sin.\nThe Believer And The Cross\nThe only answer for sin, which is the problem, is the Cross. While many in the church may allude to other things and may claim other things, the truth is, sin is the problem. This is abundantly clear in the teaching given us in the law of the various offerings. Some may claim the problem to be physical, while others claim it to be emotional. Others may claim that it is domestic or material; however, irrespective as to what the problem might be, the root cause in some way is sin. It may be the sin of someone else, or it may be the sin of the individual in question, but the cause - indirect or direct - is sin, and is always sin! That\u2019s the reason it is hopeless and helpless to try to address the problem any other way. That\u2019s the reason that humanistic psychology is such a crock; as well, the same can be said for those who promote this wisdom of the world. Neither humanistic psychology nor any other effort by man can address itself to the sin question. It is the Cross and the Cross alone that answers this horrible malady of the human race. Let us say it again: There is no answer for sin but the Cross. If we try something else, we try in vain! If we look to anything else, we look in vain! If we claim anything else, we claim such in vain!\nWhat Is The Church Doing About The Cross?\nNow let me ask this question: How is the modern church addressing its problems? The answer to that is obvious. It is looking to anything and everything except the Cross. Let me give you an example: Concerning the Assemblies of God, the largest Pentecostal denomination, if a preacher has a problem, he can never be accepted in good standing unless he is signed off by a psychologist. This means that there is no faith in the Cross, but rather the frail efforts of pitiful man. To be sure, most every other Pentecostal denomination falls into the same category, at least those of which I am aware. However, the Holy Spirit is bringing the Message of the Cross into full view of the church to where it has absolutely no choice but to either publicly reject it or accept it. As we\u2019ve said repeatedly, the Cross of Christ is the dividing line between the true church and the apostate church. In fact, it has always been that way; however, the Holy Spirit is making the Cross of Christ, and all for which it stands, so prominent that it can no longer be ignored (I Cor. 1:17\u201318, 21, 23; 2:2; Eph. 2:13\u201318; Col. 2:14\u201315; Gal. 6:14).\nChrist And His Sacrifice\nThe sin offering, whose blood was brought into the sanctuary, symbolized Christ bearing before God the sin of the whole world. The sin offering, the blood of which was not so brought in, but its flesh was eaten by the priests, presents Christ as making His own the sins of the individual sinner who believes upon Him. The meaning of Verse 30 in Leviticus, Chapter 6, is this: Regarding the sins of priests and of the nation of Israel as a whole, the blood was to be brought into the tabernacle, sprinkled seven times on the golden altar, and, as well, the blood was applied to the four horns. The flesh of this animal, which served as the sin offering, was not to be eaten by the priests, but was to be taken out to a clean place, in fact, where the ashes were taken, and there, burnt in the fire. If it was a sin offering, which referred to rulers and the common people, the blood then was not taken into the Holy Place, but was rather applied to the four horns of the brazen altar and then poured out at the base. Of the flesh of this particular animal, the priests could partake. It all had to do with where the blood was applied.\nSins Of Ignorance\nThis tells us, as should be obvious, that the sins of priests, and of the nation as a whole, constituted that which was more serious. The sins of the nation as a whole were probably carried out because of the sins of the priests, and we speak of sins of ignorance. So, the flesh of such an offering could not be eaten but had to be burned. As previously stated, it is the same presently with the thousands of preachers who sin ignorantly, thereby, causing the church to sin when they tell people how to live for God but in all the wrong ways. In other words, they are telling them to live for the Lord outside of the boundaries of the Cross, which is sin! With many of these preachers, it is done through ignorance, but it is still sin, and it will still cause great problems in the body of Christ. The only answer to the dilemma is for the preacher to understand the Cross and then to preach the Cross to his people. This is why Paul said, \u201cWe preach Christ crucified\u201d (I Cor. 1:23).\nExcerpt from the book \"The Sacrificial System\" by Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart",

        "raw_content": "You Are Here: Home \u00bb College \u00bb Alternative College Housing Options to Save Money\nHowever, if a student is willing to take the non-traditional route, there are a few options available that will cost the student less out of pocket and ultimately reduce the amount of student loan debt they may have to acquire.\nConsider these alternative college housing options:\nLive in a co-op\nWhen I attended U of M, I got tired of cooking every night and sharing an apartment with three other (often very messy) people. The rent was expensive as was the food, heating, electricity and gas. Ultimately, I decided to move into a co-op. Although it sounds like a throwback from the 1970s, a co-op can be an excellent place to live for a college student looking to save money. For the 2011-2012 school year, a room in a co-op house will cost $4,680, or $585 a month. This amount includes rent, utilities and food.\nFinding alternative college housing options can help you save!\nThe co-op sizes range from 20 to 50 students. I lived in one that had two large houses right next to one another and could accommodate 50 students. Room sizes range from triples to singles. Evening meals are served 5 nights a week, and in return for the low cost of living there, members are expected to do 3 to 5 hours of work a week. I partnered with another member and cooked one night a week for 3 hours to prepare enough food for a dinner for 50. Also, our house included two very large living rooms, a rec room downstairs with a pool table and a piano, and a dining area large enough to accommodate 50 people eating dinner.\nWhile I had some great times at the co-op there can be downsides such as dealing with others who are not doing their chores, or sometimes living in a messy or noisy environment. Yet, the co-op I lived in truly felt like a home away from home, and it saved me a bundle.\nA friend I went to school with emptied his savings, and his parents raided their savings to buy a condo close to campus. He lived there with his brother while they both attended U of M. They shared a bedroom and rented out the other bedroom to another student.\nThere are several benefits to this\u2014what you are paying each month in a mortgage payment is hopefully giving you equity in the house, you can offset part of the mortgage payment through renting out part of the home, and it offers the student a more comfortable, quiet environment in which to live. In addition, the student gets to practice managing a home and working as a landlord if there are renters.\nThere are drawbacks though, such as maintaining the home and handling the repairs and other problems that occur with home ownership. There is also the risk that you will not be able to sell the home when the student finishes college or that you may lose equity in the home. However, you could certainly hold on to the home and rent it out after your child graduates in which case it may become an excellent property investment.\nBuying a home worked out perfectly for my friend, though. He never left the college town and is still living in the home, years later.\nIf you or your child is going away to college, recognize that there are living arrangements outside of the traditional dorm or apartment. These alternative living arrangements are often much cheaper than the traditional route, yet still offer students a safe, comfortable place to live during the four years of college.\nWhat other alternative college housing options would you recommend for college students?\nKyle @ The Penny Hoarder says\nThe co-op sounds like fun! When I left home for college I moved into a 4 bedroom apartment with 3 friends. The cool part was that each of us had our own lease and our our own bathroom. If one of the roommates didn\u2019t pay their rent, they were the one evicted\u2026 And even better \u2013 it only cost $385/month, all inclusive! Sigh.. I miss those days. LOL!\nMy children lived off campus sharing various living arrangements such as an apartment or house. The key is finding people who you get along with and divide the expenses fairly. I kept my children on a budget which limited their choices. They learned a great deal from the experience and have some life-long friends.\nBecome a resident assistant (RA). You get free room and board. Plus, it looks great on your resume.\nThe co-op was great. I made life long friends there. The only problem was that I went to bed relatively early and most of them were night owls, so it could be very noisy when I was trying to sleep.\nWind Power Pros And Cons: Build magnetic motor at home. I guarantee you that if you get their plans it will be one of the best things you\u2019ve ever done! Wind Power Pros And Cons\nIIPM says\nA co-op live can be an excellent place for save money & it also offers the student a more comfortable, quiet environment to concentrate the mind only upon the study.",

        "raw_content": "You Are Here: Home \u00bb Insurance \u00bb What is Private Mortgage Insurance and Why do you Need it?\nWhat is Private Mortgage Insurance and Why do you Need it?\nPrivate mortgage insurance (PMI) is an insurance policy required by a lender that a borrower must purchase if the borrower has less than 20 percent or more in down payment when purchasing a home. The lender is in a safe position against default when the lender\u2019s investment is 80 percent or less of the home value. Private mortgage insurance is included in the monthly mortgage payments.\nHow does the borrower benefit from private mortgage insurance?\nBorrowers who have less than a 20 percent down payment for a conventional mortgage loan or do not meet the income requirements have an opportunity to be a homeowner by paying private mortgage insurance. A new borrower is allowed to own a home and at the same time build equity and also enjoy tax deductions on interest and property taxes. PMI helps the borrower to enjoy the benefits of home ownership years before he is able to save the 20 percent down payment required by mortgage lenders.\nWhat is the downside to private mortgage insurance for the borrower?\nThere are several reasons why private mortgage insurance is not the best way to go for the borrower:\n\u2022 The borrower may end up paying more for PMI than a 20 percent down payment because he gets stuck with paying the PMI longer than anticipated. The Homeowners Protection Act states that the borrower can request that the PMI be discontinued when he has 20 percent equity in the home. If housing values decline as they have in the current economy then it will take longer to reach the 20 percent equity level.\n\u2022 The Homeowners Protection Act also states that PMI is discontinued automatically when the borrower has reached the 78 percent level of equity. This does not always happen automatically and the borrower must know when he has reached this level. In fact, the borrower should know when he has reached the 20 percent equity level in order to save 2 percent of PMI.\n\u2022 PMI does not act as a life insurance policy. If the borrower becomes disabled or dies his family members receive no benefits from private mortgage insurance. PMI must be paid until the property reaches the 20 percent of equity in the home.\n\u2022 It is to the borrower\u2019s advantage to get rid of PMI as soon as possible to reduce his mortgage payments. It is possible to pay as much as $75.00 per month for PMI on a $100,000 mortgage.\nHow to determine if there is 20 percent equity in the home.\nPaying off 20 percent of the loan and having 20 percent equity in the home is not the same thing. Equity is determined by the value of your home and can increase because market values have increased or because of home improvements. The homeowner must first determine the market value of his home through a certified appraisal.\nA quick call to a friend in real estate can tell you the price of homes recently sold in your area that are comparable to your home before deciding to get an appraisal.\nFiled Under: Insurance Tagged With: home ownership, mortgage insurance\nI think the 20% down payment, to avoid PMI, is the way to go. We just have to wait and save to get the 20% down payment. Many folks become so anxious to buy a home that they don\u2019t think about paying the extra insurance in the long run.\nThe problem I see is that the lenders don\u2019t give you a choice. However, consumers do have a choice and that is to wait, save, and come up with the 20%.\nThese days, lenders really want to see that 20% minimum downpayment. You have a better shot at a mortgage if you can put down the 20%.\nI think a 20% down payment is the minimum to get into a house. Anything less puts undue pressure on the homeowner. Mortgages and home prices are record lows, a 20% down payment is very reasonable.\nPrices are low and if you can put down more than 20%, even better.",

        "title": "Wild Horizons - Friends of the Boundary Waters Wilderness",
        "raw_content": "One of the wilderness characteristics Boundary Waters users cherish are wild horizons that are free from signs of human civilization. While many people travel the BWCAW to get away from the demands of constant communication, we know that reliable emergency communications are needed for public safety. According to federal regulations, any radio or cell phone tower above 200 feet tall must be lit at night. Wilderness visitors and residents of the communities near the wilderness need the service that these towers provide for public safety, but there are ways to provide service without intruding on the wilderness.\nThe BWCAW has some of the darkest skies left in the continental United States and this is an important part of the wilderness experience. These dark skies attract people from across the continent. Blinking lights on the horizon degrade wilderness character and are unnecessary to provide service.\nMuch of our work to protect the wild horizons of the BWCAW happens behind the scenes. We work with local residents and officials to provide alternatives early in the planning process. As an example, the State of Minnesota is constructing a statewide radio tower system for emergency communications called the ARMER system. A number of proposed radio towers on the edge of the BWCAW would have exceeded 200 feet in height, but because of our work, they were scaled back to less than 200 feet. The coverage differences are minimal, but the impact on wilderness character is great.\nMap showing the visual impact of a 50-foot tower versus an 180-foot tower\nOur work with local residents and stakeholders in Cook County created win-win outcomes that will protect the wild horizons of the BWCAW in the Gunflint Trail corridor and on the southern edge of the BWCAW near Baker Lake.\nFor those interested in reading our comments on the ARMER tower proposals, click here for the Lima Mountain comments. You can also read our comments on the Seagull Lake tower project and our full Seagull Lake Report.\nSeveral years ago, Friends went to court to challenge a 400-foot-plus cell tower proposed by AT&T near the Fernberg Road east of Ely. Despite evidence showing that a 199 foot tower in that location would provide the same level of service to local residents, the Minnesota Court of Appeals reversed the decision we won at the district court level \u2013 allowing the AT&T tower to be built. However, since the conclusion of that case in 2013, no lit tower (cell phone or radio) has been built over 200 feet or within viewing distance of the BWCAW, in large part because of our work.\n\u201cWe are property owners on Sea Gull Lake, with land directly touching the property on which the new ARMER tower will be built. We support the tower and submitted comments stating so. Specifically, we support the tower at the reduced height, for minimal visual impact on the wilderness.\n\u201c[The Friends\u2019] work in getting people to reframe how to think about these towers was excellent \u2014 much better/more constructive than \u2018just say no.\u2019 Sometimes \u2018no\u2019 is the only acceptable answer, but at other times there are workarounds that accommodate the local community while preserving wilderness values.\n\u201cThank you for having the maturity to think through those issues and pursue a constructive solution to the recurring question of towers near the wilderness.\u201d\n\u2014John and Terri Penshorn\nSea Gull Lake and Wayzata, Minnesota\n(via email May 23, 2018)",

        "raw_content": "I have finally joined the ranks of the not-so-select few that get to rant and rave about the cast pickings for the currently-filming adaptation of the popolar youth fiction novel, which by the way is an abomination to the super-talented picks I cast in my version of the film. This book was addictive. Don\u2019t know why, it was just catchy like an awesome virus that locks on and doesn\u2019t let go til its done feeding you. That may have been a bit much but there was something strangely fascinating about the perspective of Katniss, a young girl who has to fight to the death at the annual Hunger Games in her country of Panem. Will she make it? Probably, considering there are two other books in the series\u2026it does kind of suck when you know the main character can\u2019t be killed, at least until the trilogy is completed. I am always fascinated by these series\u2019 of youth fiction that take over and become the most popular thing in reading and pop culture.\nThere is something to be said about a writer who can capture your interest within a second of picking up the book. That sort of talent is not everyday, it\u2019s every once in a great while that an author comes along and opens up your mind and fills it with imaginative stories.",

From their first season in 2015 fielding just four WBL teams, the competition grew to 13 teams in 2017/18 with the entry of multiple club teams into the league.\nThe Gawler Rangers entered their first ever Women\u2019s team in 2017/18 and were lucky enough to win the premiership in their inaugural season. This is testament to the fun and encouraging team atmosphere fostered by the girls and the ongoing development of skills throughout the season. Two of our players went on to represent South Australia in the Women\u2019s State Team while one was named in the train-on squad, and our pitcher Sarah-Jane Jameson was awarded the League MVP for the season.\nIn 2018/19 we have expanded our women\u2019s playing group from one team to two, and included a 15 & Under Girls team in addition, in the inaugural season of the youth league. Girls with a DOB between 1st September 2003 and 31st August 2007 are eligible for the competition, which is run at West Beach. This is FREE for all participants, and the girls have already been lucky enough to play a curtain raiser game for the Adelaide Bite. The team played games against a combined WBL team leading up to Christmas, with discussions being held about more games in the new year.\nThe first ever club-based youth girls baseball team in the South Australian Baseball League,\nOnce again, the support from the rest of the club for the women\u2019s program is a glowing reflection on the inclusive and encouraging atmosphere at the club, where we can foster the development of new programs and achieve great success within such a short time.\nTrainings are 6pm Mondays.",

Until the twentieth century, few Americans called the first ten constitutional amendments drafted by James Madison in 1789 and ratified by the states in 1791 the Bill of Rights. Even more surprising, when people finally started doing so between the Spanish-American War and World War II, the Bill of Rights was usually invoked to justify increasing rather than restricting the authority of the federal government. President Franklin D. Roosevelt played a key role in that development, first by using the Bill of Rights to justify the expansion of national regulation under the New Deal, and then by transforming the Bill of Rights into a patriotic rallying cry against Nazi Germany. It was only after the Cold War began that the Bill of Rights took on its modern form as the most powerful symbol of the limits on government power.\nThese are just some of the revelations about the Bill of Rights in Gerard Magliocca's The Heart of the Constitution. For example, we are accustomed to seeing the Bill of Rights at the end of the Constitution, but Madison wanted to put them in the middle of the document. Why was his plan rejected and what impact did that have on constitutional law? Today we also venerate the first ten amendments as the Bill of Rights, but many Supreme Court opinions say that only the first eight or first nine amendments. Why was that and why did that change?\nThe Bill of Rights that emerges from Magliocca's fresh historical examination is a living text that means something different for each generation and reflects the great ideas of the Constitution\u2014individual freedom, democracy, states' rights, judicial review, and national power in time of crisis.\nPreface: The Bill of Rights\nIntroduction: The First Bill of Rights Day\nChapter 1: Fighting the Crown\nChapter 2: Opposing the Constitution\nChapter 3: Drafting the Amendments\nChapter 4: Wandering in the Wilderness\nChapter 5: Reconstructing the Union\nChapter 6: Justifying Imperialism\nChapter 7: Defending The New Deal\nChapter 8: Attacking The F\u00fchrer\nChapter 9: Reinventing Judicial Review\nChapter 10: Waging the Cold War\nEpilogue: A Sacred Relic\nAppendix A: The English Declaration of Rights (1689)\nAppendix B: The Virginia Declaration of Rights (1776)\nAppendix C: The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948)\nGerard Magliocca, Professor of Law, Indiana University McKinney School of Law\nGerard N.

        "raw_content": "January 11, 2019 Posted by Gold IRA401k, Gold, precious metals, retirement\nBenefits Of Investing In Silver \u2013 When it comes to investing in precious metals, everyone only seems to notice the much more expensive gold, but little do people know that silver can actually be a better investment if you handle it properly. There are several advantages that silver has over some of the other forms of investment, and you will be learning about some of them in this article.\nInvesting In Silver: It Is A Real Asset\nJust like other precious metals, silver is a real asset and will always have value, unlike stocks that is purely based on speculation. Regular stocks will always have a risk of devaluing and even becoming worthless if the company that it represents goes bankrupt. The price of silver may go up or down as a result of the market demand, but it will never devalue like currency does; silver will always have an inherent value within it.\nInvesting In Silver: It is A Good Hedge Against Inflation\nJust like other precious metals, silver is an accepted form of currency all over the world, so this makes its value resistant to the effects of inflation, or the devaluation of a nation\u2019s currency. So, it does not matter where you are in the world, the value of silver remains constant even if your paper money is rapidly losing its purchasing power (as can be seen around the world in recent years).\nInvesting In Silver: It Is A Highly Liquid Investment\nIf you have a traditional 401k, then you know just how hard it is to withdraw your money from your account without getting charged a lot of different fees. But if you invest a part of your retirement funds in silver, you can easily convert it into cash whenever you need it.\nInvesting In Silver: It is More Affordable Than Gold\nWith gold prices hitting record levels, it has become too expensive for a lot of people to invest in large amounts of gold. Silver on the other hand, can provide the same wealth protection and hedge against depreciation that gold does, but since silver is a lot more affordable, more people can afford to buy it in bulk.\nInvesting In Silver: It Has A Good Supply and Demand Fundamental\nBecause the amount of silver mined every year is less than its demand in various industries. So as the world\u2019s supply of silver get lower every year, its price will only go higher. It\u2019s a great time to invest in silver now while the prices are still relatively low.\nInvesting In Silver: Its Price Is Highly Volatile\nThe price of silver can fluctuate rapidly, making it a more profitable investment option than gold, but this also means that it can get lower faster as well. However this is a short-term view. As an investor you should be looking to invest for the medium-long term. You investment will rise in value over that time-frame compared to a short-term view.\nIt is recommended that you only use silver as a hedge to diversify your portfolio, so just like any other investment don\u2019t put all of your eggs into one basket.\nThese are just some of the many benefits of having silver as an investment. If you are thinking of buying in silver, or using it as a method to protect the value of your assets, then you should get some right now while the prices are still relatively low. Over the long term, silver may just prove to be the golden boy of precious metals.\n\u2190 Gold Retirement Accounts\nInvest In Gold Or Silver \u2192\nJanuary 26, 2019 Posted by Gold IRA Comments Off on An Impartial Rosland Capital Review",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: victorian london\nBoxing cats and potato smashing on the streets of Victorian London\nI spent yesterday morning sheltering from the snow by browsing the London Society\u2018s archives, which are kept in a warehouse near the Regent\u2019s Canal in Islington. The society has several hundred London books, but also hundreds of boxes crammed with ephemera. These have been sorted to a certain degree into different categories, but it still doesn\u2019t mean you have a clue what you\u2019ll find until you open the lid. Amid the photographs, bus timetables, leaflets, maps, old copies of Time Out and weathered periodicals I found a box named only \u201codd-shaped\u201d.\nI had to investigate further.\nInside this box was another box, and this was filled with index cards. These had been sorted into alphabetical order. Each one had a handwritten title \u2013 usually a place name \u2013 and then a pasted clipping from the Daily Telegraph, usually from the late 1920s and 1930s. Quite who compiled this library \u2013 or why \u2013 was unclear, but they collectively represented a series that could have been published almost in their entirety as \u201cStrange things about London\u201d. For instance, this was the only entry for \u201cHerne Hill\u201d.\nTowards the back, under S, I discovered a fantastic series of clippings about \u201cStreet Shows, London\u201d that was prompted by a letter regarding some of the old street entertainers seen around the city. What followed was an outpouring of extraordinary memories, all for some 30-40 years before. There were boxing cats (\u201cthe cats boxed rather lazily\u201d). \u201cA shabby little man\u201d organised the pantomime execution and funeral of a canary (\u201cthe hearse drawn by a team of four canaries\u201d). There was \u201ca savage who glowered and grunted behind a set of bars\u201d. There was a \u201cburly negro\u201d who ate coal, drank meths and then set fire to his breath. There was a drunken stilt-walker. There was another \u201cnegro\u201d, who ate lighted fuses \u2013 \u201che once showed me the inside of his left cheek burned black\u201d. There was \u201canother negro\u201d who would throw dinner plates in the air and smash them on his head \u2013 \u201con one occasion I was present when cut his forehead rather badly\u201d, records the correspondent in Bogner Regis, dispassionately. Best of all was the \u201cpotato smasher\u201d, who would turn up in Camden or Oxford Street and throw a raw potato in the air, smashing it with his head \u2013 he had \u201ca permanent bruise on his forehead caused by the impact of many potatoes\u201d.\nThere were reams of this stuff, all clipped, pasted, annotated and diligently filed, until they were eventually sent to The London Society, placed in a box and then left on a shelf in a warehouse, waiting to be rediscovered.\nI post a selection below.\nPosted in History, London, Uncategorized\nTagged Daily Telegraph, entertainment, potato smasher, street shows, street theatre, victorian london",

        "raw_content": "Not Ash, Just Green! \u2013 ACC\u2019s Cement House\nFebruary 17, 2011 in Green Architecture | Tags: ACC Cement House, Cement House, fire-fighting system, glass, Glass building, Gold rating award, green building, IGBC, LEED India New Construction\nIn recent times, nearly every corporate office building in the world has been bitten by the Green bug; energy-efficiency and sustainability are architectural buzzwords and no construction can remain untouched by these all-essential features.\nThis phenomenon has found its way to India as well, and the best example in recent times is the ACC headquarters in Mumbai. The country\u2019s leading cement company received the LEED India New Construction \u2013 Gold rating award for the \u201cCement House\u201d late last year. ACC received this prestigious award at a specially organized ceremony during the Annual Meet of Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) at the Chennai Trade Centre in Chennai.\nCement House is not a newly constructed building. It is a renovated building, enhanced with multiple features for sustainability and eco-friendliness. Cement House was the first project in the country to be registered under the criterion \u2018major renovation of an existing building\u2019. Cement House heralds the legitimacy of the belief that only new constructions can be part of the Green Building brigade.\nThe building has also received a Five Star rating for being the most energy-efficient in the category of energy-efficient office buildings. This rating has been conferred to it by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Ministry of Power, Government of India.\nThe renovation architects unlocked a central shaft in the core of the building to serve as a ready-made grand atrium around which offices on each floor are laid out. The ample use of glass imparts a sense of space by merging the outside world with the interiors. The absence of partition walls, the wide glass windows and a huge central atrium have together facilitated the penetration of natural daylight, making artificial lights redundant for the most day.\nThe asbestos sheet roof has been replaced by a polycarbonate sheet and the atrium has been extended to the basement level for more and more daylight to enter. The atrium is enveloped by glass railings on three sides for maximum transparency and landscaped at the basement level to maximise the green area. The central atrium is equipped with a fire-fighting system as a measure of safety.\nA central service core is used to house the HVAC and air-handling units (AHUs) on all floors and run other utilities like the chiller pipes, plumbing and drainage lines, and electrical and data cables. The service core now opens out into the sky-lit atrium. The design of the entire office revolves around the concept of this atrium and allocation of spaces around it.\nThe existing windows (1,320 \u00d7 2,080 mm) with wooden frames have been expanded to 1,320 \u00d7 3,000 mm sizes and renovated into more sleek aluminium open-able casement windows using double glazed units (DGU).\nThree unused terraces in the building have now been transformed into verdant green roof gardens with plush grass, cobble-stone pathways, flowers, thick foliage and even some palm trees. Native plant species have been chosen as a measure to conserve water. The bright glass windows with these adjacent green terraces offer a refreshing view to the building occupants.\nOptical and motion sensors control the lighting in the workspaces, based on occupancy. Similarly, a new air-conditioning system regulates the flow of cool air depending on ambient temperature and occupancy levels in different areas of the building. The use of solar water heaters together with daylight harvesting and intelligent lighting and control systems help reduce overall energy consumption by 25 per cent.\nProject Orchid cuts down overall water consumption of the building by 50 per cent. All sinks are fitted with sensor-based, water-efficient plumbing fixtures. A sewage treatment plant recycles used water which is then channeled for use in the terrace garden, landscaped areas and water closets. Indoor plants are selected for their low water requirements. Rainwater is harvested effectively.\nEnergy-efficient Materials\nMaterials selected for use in flooring, ceilings, furniture, wall coverings, carpets, partitions and so on have been chosen for their recycled content or recyclable properties. These are also certified by their respective manufacturers as non-toxic. Similarly, low Volatile Organic Compound (Low VOC) paints, adhesives and sealants have been used to maintain a healthy indoor environment.\nWaste will be segregated into dry waste and wet waste; dry waste will be diverted to recycling haulers while wet waste will be further processed to generate organic compost on site.\nThe open office plan includes modern furniture, well equipped conference halls, meeting rooms and breakout areas on every floor. Each conference room is equipped with the best in telephone conferencing, video-conferencing and overhead projectors. The spacious new canteen with a state-of-the-art kitchen, along with a mini-gym and coffee lounges on every floor further enhance the appeal of the building.\n\u00ab Another Green Wonder in Glass: Mudra House",

        "raw_content": "Worldscapes\nThe Art of Err\u00f3\nNothing about Err\u00f3\u2019s art is understated. A firm believer that more is better, this Icelandic artist creates jam-packed, dynamic, and often raucous paintings. Working in series and deploying a kaleidoscope of cartoon characters, art icons, and public figures, he comments on pressing political issues, references art history, and delights in wreaking visual havoc.\nErr\u00f3 settled in Paris in 1958 after studying in Reykjavik, Oslo, and Florence. His early tempera-and-ink paintings depicting ghoulish figures firmly situate him in the postwar European figurative art scene. In 1963, his encounter with American Pop art on his first trip to New York proved decisive, and he began employing mass-culture imagery to explore social and cultural contradictions inherent in a world of never-ending consumption. From the very beginning, Err\u00f3 also made collages\u2014a technique that has been essential to his art\u2014and has unceasingly investigated and amassed an ever-expanding archive of images culled from around the world. Comprising newspaper and magazine clippings, posters, leaflets, postcards, advertisements, and, importantly, comics, this wealth of materials provides the sources for the collages, which in turn he projects onto canvases and paints.\nCollage enables Err\u00f3 to fashion startling combinations which can appear humorous or ironic but, on closer observation, can also be deeply unsettling. Indeed, in many of Err\u00f3\u2019s paintings, shiny, smooth surfaces belie pointed political critiques and complex psychological investigations. Err\u00f3\u2019s first American retrospective, Worldscapes surveys more than half a century of this globally minded and prolific artist\u2019s career.",

        "title": "How to Stop Worrying, Love Artificial Intelligence, and Transform Your Accounting Firm",
        "raw_content": "For some time, it\u2019s been clear that artificial intelligence and machine learning would have an impact on accounting. Going Concern started half-joking about robots taking all the accounting jobs as early as 2014, even hinting at the possibility in 2011. This means that the AICPA probably caught on sometime in late 2017.\nThe point is, if you\u2019ve been paying attention, you\u2019ve been wondering what impact AI would have on the accounting profession, and just how big it would be for a while now.\nAs it turns out, the impact will touch virtually everything in accounting, and it will be bigger than most people could have imagined, so, it must be time to freak out, right? Are we only a few short years away from a world of super-intelligent cyborgs displacing professionals to a white-collar wasteland where lawyers and accountants do battle for the chance to pore over dense contracts, tax regulations, and fill out timesheets by hand?\nNo, we\u2019re not, although I think that might be the setting for my next dystopian novel. In reality, \u201cartificial intelligence\u201d is a pretty broad label that means a lot of different things. Nearly all the \u201cartificial intelligence\u201d we\u2019re experiencing in this day and age \u2014 including every instance in the accounting world \u2014 consists of \u201cweak AI\u201d or \u201cnarrow AI.\u201d Examples of weak AI include your virtual assistant or that telemarketer who doesn\u2019t quite sound human. By contrast, \u201cstrong AI\u201d and \u201cartificial general intelligence\u201d are the types of AI that you see in movies that give you the creeps.\nHowever, that does NOT mean the technology being developed can\u2019t replace humans for a large number of tasks. In the oft-cited 2013 paper \u201cThe Future of Employment: How Susceptible Are Jobs to Computerisation?\u201d by Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A. Osborne of the University of Oxford, accountants and auditors score 0.94 probability (on a scale of 0 to 1, where 1 = certain) that job losses will occur in the next two decades. Tax preparers landed in the top ten most probable for jobs losses with a score of 0.99. More recently, a recent study from Atherton Research predicted: \u201cby 2020, accounting tasks \u2014 but also tax, payroll, audits, banking \u2014 will be fully automated using AI-based technologies.\u201d\nNaturally, this has people worried. Yes, the American Institute of CPAs wasn\u2019t exactly all over the advent of AI, but then one of the executives saw a Jetsons rerun and remembered that things like robot slave labor were possible. Over the last couple of years, the AICPA has repeatedly warned its membership to prepare for a future where their firms would be unrecognizable. The catalysts of this change have almost always been technology flavor of the week: From BIG DATA to The Internet of Things to the cloud to blockchain to, yes, artificial intelligence, the accounting profession never lets a good technology crisis go to waste. These advancements are described with words like \u201cchange\u201d and \u201cdisruption,\u201d implying that there\u2019s something to fear; and that something is obsolescence and irrelevance.\nAlthough there is no shortage of accounting firms who are boldly going where accounting has never gone before, many more probably haven\u2019t considered what AI means to their firm in a broader context. This means thinking about your firm in a more holistic way; at its core, what is the firm? Is it more than just crunching numbers? If so, what does it really do? What are you trying to accomplish? If you can easily answer these questions, then you\u2019ll be fine. Firms that are unsure, might have some work to do. Either way, you should read on.\nThere\u2019s nothing to be afraid of\nThis anxiety about the future isn\u2019t entirely unfounded, however. Some of the predictions in Frey and Osborne\u2019s 2013 paper are slowly manifesting themselves right before our eyes. Businesses are more complex than ever, making data analysis crucial to understanding them; the Internet is creeping into every facet of our lives; distributed ledgers have huge potential; everything is on the cloud, and AI and automation are taking over repetitive tasks from humans. So, yes, there are lots of things changing.\nBut when has change not been pervasive throughout business? Has our economy ever been wholly stable and resistant to disruptive forces? I think most people, upon short reflection, would confess that that\u2019s never been the case. \u201cOh, but this time it\u2019s different,\u201d you might say. But isn\u2019t that obvious? Of course the change we\u2019re experiencing now is unlike any change we\u2019ve ever experienced before; if we were experiencing something we\u2019d seen previously, we\u2019d use a different cliche: History repeats itself.\nThe lesson here, I think, is that we\u2019re always experiencing change and repetition simultaneously, and to get worked up about any of it is a questionable use of energy.\nGet excited about it. AI will help you do the routine things better, leaving you to focus on the important stuff.\nWait, but what\u2019s the important stuff? Once you\u2019ve made up your mind to not worry about all the change that\u2019s happening and not happening, it\u2019s worthwhile to think about what your firm should be doing. AICPA executives want accounting firms to \u201cdisrupt themselves\u201d and \u201creimagine\u201d their field, and that kind of amorphous advice is not all that helpful. Cutting the electricity to your office would be disruptive and you could reimagine your accounting firm as one that only serves hipster coffee shops but you\u2019d just be torturing yourself with moves like that.\nTheir advice isn\u2019t entirely useless, though. Getting comfortable with discomfort is probably the best thing you can do for your business. By accepting the fact that your firm will have to change, probably continually, you\u2019ll hopefully resist the temptation to worry about it at all and, as mentioned above, get down to business.\nHere are several ideas for transforming your firm into a fluid operation that won\u2019t get spooked when the machines show up to do the grunt work.\nWe\u2019ve talked about building niches before, and it bears repeating: Your firm should focus on a particular industry, stacked with people who know that industry really, really well. Those people might even be experts in a providing a specific service to that industry like HR advising, IT consulting, financial planning or strategy. We\u2019ll chat more about services below.\nIf your firm has already chosen a niche, then now is a great time to check on its development. Are you still spending lots of time on non-niche clients? Can you \u2014 gasp \u2014 fire them or transition them to another firm? Have you done any research or business development around the niche recently? If these questions have sent you scurrying into the broom closet out of shame, then perhaps take the time to recommit to your niche and take some action.\nAccounting firms have been offering advisory, aka consulting, services for decades, but historically, only larger firms had the resources to provide them with significant value. In recent years, as traditional accounting firm services like tax and assurance have become increasingly commoditized, advisory and consulting work became an imperative for firms of all sizes who want to survive. The advent of AI and automation has allowed smaller firms to grow their businesses in new ways including offering new advisory services.\nHere are a few services to consider:\nVirtual CFO/Controller Services \u2014 If your clients are growing, accounting and finance types are often some of the last people small businesses hire. By acting as your client\u2019s outsourced CFO or controller, you\u2019ll be their go-to numbers person.\nCoaching \u2014 This is beyond just mentoring your clients\u2019 owners or top employees. Coaching can be therapy, dreaming, exorcism, brain-mining, and more all rolled into one. Professional coaching has become such a massive part of learning and development that there\u2019s even an international organization dedicated to the practice. The International Coach Federation issues a trio of credentials, connects coaches with coachees, and offers training courses.\nConsulting \u2014 Consulting gets a bad rap because it can be an obscure, sometimes meaningless, term. Firms that approach \u201cconsulting\u201d define it into relevant, valuable services. Maybe your clients need to establish their own niche, consider new products or services, or acquire or merge with another company. If you\u2019re positioned to help them with this type of work, you\u2019re consulting the right way.\nThis short list is just a taste of things your firm can do. Obviously, if you\u2019re handy with tech, that\u2019s a bonus, and more firms are making non-traditional acquisitions, meaning you\u2019re only one expensive, complicated transaction away from breaking ground on a new endeavor.\nLearn (or create) something new\nSpeaking of new endeavors, there\u2019s one thing that artificial intelligence will not be able to do anytime soon: Make up new things to do. As I mentioned earlier, the AI that\u2019s emerging right now is designed to perform specific tasks, and although it can \u201clearn\u201d things, it doesn\u2019t possess general intelligence or sentience that would allow it the expand its capabilities beyond its predefined range.\nA recent Vox article touched on this topic, noting that making stuff up to do is an exquisite human activity:\nA hundred years ago, or 400 years ago, people did much more useful jobs \u2014 huge swaths of the human race, for instance, were directly involved in the production of food and the collection of water.\nCompared with those ancestors, humans today are a massive useless class. What sort of job is \u201ceditor of an explanatory journalism website\u201d next to \u201cfarmer\u201d? Would our ancestors value the work of psychologists or customer service representatives or wedding planners or computer coders?\nBut this, to me, is the story of labor markets in the past few hundred years: As technology drives people out of the most necessary jobs, we invent less necessary jobs that we nevertheless imbue with profound meaning and even economic value.\nOnce upon a time, I went to college to become an accountant, and after learning to be an accountant, I did accountanty things for a while after that. Accounting for things has been around for quite awhile, so I suppose it\u2019s a useful job. Then I became a \u201cblogger\u201d or perhaps more accurately, an \u201ceditor of a gossipy, irreverent website for accounting professionals.\u201d Which, yes, some might just say is a kind of \u201cwriter\u201d or a \u201cjournalist,\u201d but the point is, I wound up being paid to do something that didn\u2019t really exist when I was in college and certainly didn\u2019t exist 100 years ago, and, some might say, could be incredibly useless.\nIt\u2019s this kind of attitude that you should take with you when you\u2019re building out the capabilities of your firm. I\u2019m serious! Through trial and error (a euphemism for screwing around) you\u2019ll discover what your clients find to be valuable, and after you land on something that one person wants to pay for, it\u2019s possible that other people will want to pay for it too.\nImagine the firm you want and build it\nThere are a couple of ways you can think about the RISE OF THE MACHINES or whatever you\u2019re calling this age of technology alarmism.\nUse the tech available to help provide your traditional services in a whole new way, embrace the opportunity to make significant changes to your firm; or\nTake cover until everything blows over.\nI wouldn\u2019t recommend option 2 unless you\u2019re ready to go on a permanent vacation which, admittedly, sounds really nice. However, if you\u2019re even the least bit intrigued about the possibilities that AI might bring about, then stop reading this, get out there and make it happen. Besides, it\u2019s perfect timing; you\u2019ve reached the end.",

        "raw_content": "AUSTRALIA \u2013 Darwin & Cookstown\nAbove is a beautiful full moon as we cruise along the cost of Australia off Queensland.\nI am so looking forward to being in Australia. I\u2019ve never been here and I love every Australian I have ever met.\nOur first stop was in Darwin and I took a harbour cruise \u2013 yeah, I know \u2013 I\u2019ve been on a cruise for four months, but I did. Interesting tides out here. Of course we are coming into a full moon which has an effect on the tides, but here you can find a range from approximately two feet at low tide to 23 feet at high tide.\nThe old Darwin lighthouse was built in 1893. It was de-manned and automated in 1933 and continued to work until 1971 when the light was extinguished, transmission masts were installed, and it became a daymarker. However, on Christmas eve 1974 Cyclone Tracy devasted the area and damaged the transmission masts. Within a month a low powered lamp was installed and it is still operating today using solar power. It has weathered a war and many cyclones since 1974 as it continues to guide ships at sea.\nWe learned a lot about the roll Darwin and the Australians played in WWII, and how the Japanese attacked this area. I learned that there was a co-ordinated bombing attack by the Japanese which hit Darwin and Pearl Harbour at exactly the same time. The info here just stood to underline what I have been learning all down through this area and have mentioned in earlier blogs.\nOur next port was supposed to be Cookstown and I was going to be visiting Black Mountain and the Lion\u2019s Den Pub. Black Mountain is a huge labyrinth of granite that originally formed beneath the earth some 240 million years ago. Erosion has exposed the rocks which are \u201cstacked precariously on one another seemingly defying gravity\u201d. There are mysterious tales about the mountain, with people and even herds of cattle disappearing without a trace. The ancient aboriginals considered it sacred and is important in aboriginal mythology and contemporary legend. After Black Mountain we were to stop at the Lion\u2019s Den Pub, built of iron and timber in 1875. It is known for its quirky decorations, 100 year old mango trees, and the offbeat characters who often drop in for a \u201ccoldie\u201d. Now doesn\u2019t that just sound like my kind of tour!!!!\nWell it wasn\u2019t to be. The full moon and the tides, and the wind and the swells of the ocean were all taken into consideration and this port was cancelled.

Names matter little.\nFrom your source: \"Microsoft's internal project name for the new OS was OS/2 NT, because Microsoft's intention was for the new OS to succeed OS/2 yet retain the OS/2 API as its primary interface.\"\nNote how Russinovich talks about a \"new OS\".\nThe NT (kernel) never had any OS/2 code in it, it was a totally different project. The first target processor architecture for NT wasn't even x86, it was MIPS.\nOS/2 in NT was merely a subsystem layer next to DOS and Posix, somewhat like today there is the Linux subsystem layer in Windows 10.\nA good source is this:\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Mic...\nEamonnMR \u00b7 2018-01-22 \u00b7 Original thread\nIf you're a Cutler fan you may enjoy Showstopper[1], an account of the creation of NT.\n1: https://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Mic...\nIf you like history like this, you should also read \u201cshowstopper: the breakneck race to create Windows NT\u201d (1). It profiles Cutler\u2019s team as they go through the period described briefly in this article to make Windows NT an actual contender to the Unix-based OSes.\n1- https://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Mic...\ntrentnelson \u00b7 2016-04-08 \u00b7 Original thread\nIn a similar sort of vein, \"Show Stopper!: The Breakneck Race to Create Windows NT and the Next Generation at Microsoft\" is a great recaps of the initial Windows NT days with David Cutler and his 200+ ex-Digital OS engineers.\nIt was published in 1994 (so covers up to Windows NT 3.5 and touches on Chicago/Win95) and features a lot of info gleaned from 1:1s the author had with Gates, Cutler and a host of other executives.\n(The design decisions made back then between 89-93 for NT are what enabled things like 'Bash on Ubuntu on Windows' to take place today.)\nhttp://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Micr...\nThanks for the comments. I am absolutely certain of the NT back-story. However, you can read the whole story from another source, Show-Stopper, a book by G Pascal Zachary from the Wall Street Journal (1).\nWhen Cutler was hired in 1988, both OS/2 and Windows were failing in the marketplace. The problems arose after Windows 3 sales started to take off in 1990.\nMicrosoft tried to get IBM to accept \"OS/2 NT\" as a replacement for the 16-bit OS/2, which was dead in the water. It refused, IBM and Microsoft divorced, and NT got rejigged for Windows compatibility instead of OS/2 compatibility.\n(1) http://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Micr...\nRemember that Microsoft got its power from IBM: it would have been nowhere if IBM hadn't used its DOS and Basic in the IBM PC. IBM then resented Microsoft for \"stealing\" a small part of IBM's rightful monopoly.\nMicrosoft would go to any lengths to hang on to the IBM connection, which Ballmer called \"riding the bear\". The in-house Microsoft strategy for IBM meetings was BOGU (for Bend Over, Grease Up). Hence OS/2.\nYou may recall that, at once time, Microsoft saw Unix as the potential replacement for DOS. It did Xenix, which was the most popular Unix of its day. However, way back then, IBM had an implacable hatred for Unix and for AT&T, and owning OS/2 EE (not available from Microsoft) was the cornerstone of its plan to bring the PC industry under IBM's control (OS/2 EE, PS/2, MCA, SAA etc).\nThe principle architect of VMS was David Cutler, purportedly the best engineer at Digital at the time (80s), and best OS designer in the industry.\nDigital dropped the ball in the late 80s with regards to management of Cutler and his team, canceling his PRISM project and leaving him and his team disgruntled.\nElsewhere in Seattle, a chap named Bill Gates was flush with billions of cash and knew that the shelf life of DOS was limited; if Microsoft were to succeed, they needed a new, robust, reliable and high-performance OS that they could \"bet the company on\".\nGates got word that Cutler was disgruntled at Digital, and a mutual party set up a meeting. Cutler was dismissive of Microsoft's technology stack at the time (DOS and some office apps) -- he was a hardcore OS engineer, and DOS was a toy.\nGates persisted, ensuring Cutler that he would have the opportunity to build the next generation of OS from the ground up and essentially unlimited resources at his disposal to do it. Cutler eventually agreed, and the NT kernel project was born.\nhttp://windowsitpro.com/windows-client/windows-nt-and-vms-re...\npjmorris \u00b7 2014-02-06 \u00b7 Original thread\nThree I'm familiar with, all recommended:\n'Gates', Stephen Manes [1]\n'Show Stopper!: The Breakneck Race to Create Windows NT and the Next Generation at Microsoft', G.P. Zachary [2]\n'Microsoft in the Mirror', Karin Carter [3]\nBut I agree with the parent that 'Programmers At Work' is a great book.\n[1] http://www.amazon.com/Gates-Microsofts-Reinvented-Industry-H...\n[2] http://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Micr...\n[3] http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Mirror-Nineteen-Insiders-Exp...\nSplines \u00b7 2012-06-15 \u00b7 Original thread\nSpeaking of Cutler, if you haven't read it, I highly recommend the book \"Show Stopper!\", which describes the early days of Windows NT.\n> IIRC Microsoft had a completely separate team working on Win NT initially, lead by David Cutler.\nIf you're interested in this, I highly suggest you read \"Show Stopper!\". It provides some interesting insights into Microsoft's early days with NT.\nandrewf \u00b7 2008-10-31 \u00b7 Original thread\nThat interview incident has always seemed at odds with a subsequent book by the reporter - http://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Micr... - which is quite a sympathetic view of the Windows NT deathmarch.\nI highly recommend Show Stopper!: The Breakneck Race to Create Windows NT and the Next Generation at Microsoft http://www.amazon.com/Show-Stopper-Breakneck-Generation-Micr...\nFun drama like a C++ programmer spending months to get a simple window to appear on screen (e.g. building the Win32 API).

        "raw_content": "3D Printed Robotic Arms for Sign Language\nA team of students in Antwerp, Belgium are responsible for Project Aslan, which is exploring the feasibility of using 3D printed robotic arms for assisting with and translating sign language. The idea came from the fact that sign language translators are few and far between, and it\u2019s a task that robots may be able to help with. In addition to translation, robots may be able to assist with teaching sign language as well.\nThe project set out to use 3D printing and other technology to explore whether low-cost robotic signing could be of any use. So far the team has an arm that can convert text into finger spelling and counting. It\u2019s an interesting use for a robotic arm; signing is an application for which range of motion is important, but there is no real need to carry or move any payloads whatsoever.\nCloseup of hand actuators and design. Click to enlarge.\nA single articulated hand is a good proof of concept, and these early results show some promise and potential but there is still a long ways to go. Sign language involves more than just hands. It is performed using both hands, arms and shoulders, and incorporates motions and facial expressions. Also, the majority of sign language is not finger spelling (reserved primarily for proper names or specific nouns) but a robot hand that is able to finger spell is an important first step to everything else.\nFuture directions for the project include adding a second arm, adding expressiveness, and exploring the use of cameras for the teaching of new signs. The ability to teach different signs is important, because any project that aims to act as a translator or facilitator needs the ability to learn and update. There is a lot of diversity in sign languages across the world. For people unfamiliar with signing, it may come as a surprise that \u2014 for example \u2014 not only is American Sign Language (ASL) related to French sign language, but both are entirely different from British Sign Language (BSL). A video of the project is embedded below.\nSign language projects show up fairly regularly in both the hobbyist and academic worlds. We\u2019ve seen puppet-like 3D printed hands used to convert spoken words to ASL, as well as these sensor-covered gloves which aim to convert ASL signs and motions into speech. It\u2019s fascinating to see the progression in technology and approaches taken over time as sensor technology and tools like 3D printing become more advanced.\n[via 3DHubs newsroom]\nPreviousPawankalyan Twitter Account Block | Hackers Conspiracy | Janasena | 10TV\nNextHacking DNA glowing plants and beyond: Antony Evans at TEDxKL 2013\nSource Code Diving: How Butterknife Works\nHacker News Nation #9 \u2013 The 1% Rule",

The town, on the North Sea coast, is the most easterly settlement of the United Kingdom. It is 110 miles (177 km) north-east of London, 38 miles (61 km) north-east of Ipswich and 22 miles (35 km) south-east of Norwich. It lies on the edge of The Broads system and is the major settlement in the district of Waveney, with a population of 71,010 in 2011. Some of the earliest evidence of settlement in Britain has been found here. As a port town it developed out of the fishing industry and as a traditional seaside resort. It has wide, sandy beaches, two piers and other attractions. While its fisheries have declined, oil and gas exploitation in the southern North Sea in the 1960s added to its development, as a base for the industry alongside nearby Great Yarmouth. This role has declined, but the town has begun to develop as an Eastern England centre of the renewable energy industry.\nFollowing the discovery of flint tools in the cliffs at Pakefield in south Lowestoft in 2005, the human habitation of the Lowestoft area can be traced back 700,000 years. This establishes Lowestoft as one of the earliest known sites for human habitation in Britain.\nThe above introduction to Lowestoft uses material from the Wikipedia article 'Lowestoft' and is used under licence.\nWeather forecast for the next three days for Lowestoft\nThe Google map below shows a scrollable map of Lowestoft and the surrounding area ( the amount of surrounding area depends on the location you are looking for).",

        "raw_content": "Sages tend to see in Joseph a corrected and updated version of Cain. While Cain becomes a self-possessed one and can\u2019t bear the thought of letting Abel pass through the land with his herd, and kills him for doing so.\nUnlike Cain, Joseph shares everything, his most intimate dreams, his companionship with the sons of Bilhah, his mother maid, a relation that his brothers, Leah\u2019s sons, cannot tolerate. Later on, he will share his covenant with the infinite and feed the people of the world, including his family. And more than this, he will give his brothers who hated him to death and sold him for slavery, mansions in the land of Goshen. He will also help the ministers of Egypt including the mighty king Pharaoh and interpret their dreams, saving them and the people around them from catastrophes.\nJoseph is the eleventh son of Jacob. The way we write the number eleven is by drawing the number one next to another number one, like this 11. In a way, this way of writing the number eleven describes Joseph relation to the world. He always sees against his eyes the other as a whole complete one, cause he sees in everyone a spark of the one, a spark of the letter aleph, a spark of the uniting power, and with the power of the number eleven, he elevates everybody around him.\nTo continue the conversation about the elevating power of Joseph in Facebook click here",

        "title": "Grieving | Heidi Davies Coaching",
        "raw_content": "14 1/2 years ago, my husband and I welcomed our first child, an adorable little girl. About 5 weeks later, she was hospitalized and subsequently diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder that eventually cut her life short. She passed away when she was 3 years old.\nShe had a medical specialist whose office we frequented. Employed in this office was a social worker. I remember the first time at the office talking with the social worker Susan as we held our newly diagnosed daughter in our arms. Susan said that we will go through a grieving process. I guess I looked at her funny because she went on to explain. Grieving is often thought of a process when someone dies. Though our daughter had not died, most parents have dreams and expectations of bringing home a healthy baby. They think about starting their first foods, and helping them learn to walk, and the first day of school, and all kinds of other kid things.\nOur daughter\u2019s life was going to be very different than what we expected. She wasn\u2019t going to eat. I would have to learn how to insert an NG tube, the tube that goes from the nose into the stomach for special medical formula. I would have to learn to care for a g-tube, the tube that goes straight into her stomach for feeding. I was going to have to give injections. We would have hospital stays. All of her motor skills would be delayed. As would her speech and other areas. She would probably have to be in Special Ed classes. The reality we were facing was nothing like what we expected. And so the little girl we dreamed about was going to have to be grieved while we dealt with the little girl we were given instead.\nWhat does this have to do with being the wife of an addict? Follow me here. Many little girls grow up dreaming about what it would like to be married. Their husband would be a good, honorable man. He was going to adore her, respect her, and lead their family with love and righteousness. Any realistic girl will realize he will also have flaws, and there would be moments where she will want to ring his neck, but he would be a hard worker, fun, and most of the other qualities that she desired in a husband. But most of all, he would be faithful.\nWhen a woman finds out her husband is looking at pornography or indulging in some other kind of sexual addiction, it can feel like the rug is pulled out from under them. Those dreams they have of the ideal good and honorable man disappear in a poof and are replaced by disappointment, pain, and often a complete blank of what the future may hold. And in the same way I had to grieve the loss of my daughter, these women have to grieve the loss of their husbands. Even though they are often still there in their lives, when those dreams are shattered, there must be a grieving process as a new dream and a new life come into play.\nIf this is your situation, allow yourself that process. Be angry. Be sad. Allow yourself the time to adjust to what your new reality may be. Like my daughter, sometimes that reality isn\u2019t bad, it\u2019s just different. But whatever reality that is, allow yourself the time and the grief needed to adjust.\nFebruary 7, 2017 by Heidi Davies\tHealing Be kind to yourself, Lessons from Real Life\n\u2190 Becoming Better",

After pulling a disappearing act of epic proportions for the last few months, Joshua Pitt came out of hiding this morning and announced to the world that he was back and at 100%, filled with a new vigour and ready to inject the much needed jump back into the league.\nWhen asked where he was, Pitt replied \"As most of you know, I was a part of the admin team for the league and was involved in secret talks over the new TV and NHLPA deals. Unfortunately the TV deal was done in such a secure and secret location that we didn't know where we were. Mr Murdoch is like that. He kept talking about Ted Turner stealing his cookies while he was sleeping. I thought it was just a case of Cabin Fever, but I dunno, I swear I saw him up there once or twice... And as for the delay...It's a tough trip from the North Pole when you've only got a few jumpers and a a pair of skates.\"\nWhen someone mentioned good old Saint Nick. Pitt laughed. \"Isn't he supposed to be in St.Louis? Well...that's at least that's the way he tells it I'm not claiming to be Chris Cringle, but lets just say i have a few goodies in my bag of tricks for the Kids in Buffalo, and they'll arrive long before Christmas!\"\nWhen asked how he felt about the league...Pitt had this to say...\n\"I'm itching to get things rolling again. I'm back at 100% and bursting at the seams to get this done. Hurricane Josh is on his way through the league! Apparrently the league can't start without me it seems \"\nAs for the upcoming season and the potential trade front that normally hits this time of year?\n\" I can already smell the fear.\" he said with a grin. \"Everybody has been busy trying to be the king in my absence...but there's just one major problem...The Ace is now firmly back in the deck.\"\nAsked about his team's chances?\n\"We'll make the playoffs...after that, who knows? But expect an improvement on last season...tough as that may be to achieve.\"\nAnd then he left with a rush, saying something about working the phones.\nGuess life is going to get real interesting around the leage real soon!\nHockey Editor for The Buffalo News\nChuzwazza, Nov 16, 2004\nWelcome back Josh.

He also has an older brother who works in banking. During his school years Hugh played rugby, soccer, and cricket. He won a scholarship to New College, Oxford and was interested in pursuing a career in art history. He began acting just to satisfy his creative side, but as time passed he found himself doing more and more.\nHis first film was Privileged in 1982. He continued to work in film for the next decade, but considered giving up acting due to lack of good material. By chance, one of the next scripts he looked at was for the movie The Remains of the Day. The film earned over $63 million dollars at the box office and was nominated for a total of eight Academy Awards. Two films later, Hugh would star in Four Weddings and a Funeral which earned over $245 million dollars. At this point, Hugh was an international star. He has since starred in movies such as Nine Months, Mickey Blue Eyes, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones\u2019s Diary (and the subsequent Bridget Jones films), About a Boy, and Love Actually.\nHugh has had some personal troubles along the way, but throughout it all he has kept his straightforward, charming attitude. From his years on stage and in films, we estimate Hugh Grant to be worth $80,000,000 (GBP 50,626,502).\nHugh has always been popular with the ladies and what better way to entertain them than on a personal yacht? He could buy a 335 foot Monterey 355SY for a mere $234,395. He\u2019s actually got enough money to buy 341 of them. That would be a lot of entertaining, even for someone of his calibre. But, if you are jealous of his money, just think, even Hugh couldn\u2019t come close to being able to afford the Lurssen $622 million Project Azzam, he\u2019d be about $522 million short.\nHow rich is John Boyega?",

        "raw_content": "Columbanus (Irish: Columb\u00e1n, 543 \u2013 21 November 615),[1] also known as St. Columban,[2] was an Irish missionary notable for founding a number of monasteries from around 590 in the Frankish and Lombard kingdoms, most notably Luxeuil Abbey in present-day France and Bobbio Abbey in present-day Italy. He is remembered as a key figure in the Hiberno-Scottish mission, or Irish missionary activity in early medieval Europe.[1] In recent years, however, as Columbanus's deeds and legacy have come to be re-examined by historians, the traditional narrative of his career has been challenged and doubts have been raised regarding his actual involvement in missionary work and the extent to which he was driven by purely religious motives or also by a concern for playing an active part in politics and church politics in Francia.[3]\nColumbanus taught an Irish monastic rule and penitential practices for those repenting of sins, which emphasised private confession to a priest, followed by penances levied by the priest in reparation for the sins. Columbanus is one of the earliest identifiable Hiberno-Latin writers.[1]\nLeinster, Kingdom of Meath\nBobium, Kingdom of the Lombards\nMost of what we know about Columbanus is based on Columbanus' own works (as far as they have been preserved)[4][5] and Jonas of Bobbio's Vita Columbani (Life of Columbanus), which was written between 639 and 641.[Note 1] Jonas entered Bobbio after Columbanus' death but relied on reports of monks who still knew Columbanus.[1] A description of miracles of Columbanus written by an anonymous monk of Bobbio is of much later date.[6] In the second volume of his Acta Sanctorum O.S.B., Mabillon gives the life in full, together with an appendix on the miracles of the saint, written by an anonymous member of the Bobbio community.[1]\nColumbanus (the Latinised form of Columb\u00e1n, meaning the white dove) was born in the Kingdom of Meath, now part of Leinster, in Ireland in 543,[1] the year Saint Benedict died at Monte Cassino.[7] Prior to his birth, his mother was said to have had visions of bearing a child who, in the judgment of those interpreting the visions, would become a \"remarkable genius\".[8] Columbanus was well-educated in the areas of grammar, rhetoric, geometry, and the Holy Scriptures.[1][9]\nColumbanus left home to study under Sinell, Abbot of Cluaninis in Lough Erne.[Note 2] Under Sinell's instruction, Columbanus composed a commentary on the Psalms. He then moved to Bangor Abbey on the coast of Down, where Saint Comgall was serving as the abbot. He stayed at Bangor until his fortieth year,[1] when he received Comgall's permission to travel to the continent.[10][11]\nFrankish Gaul\nColumbanus in Frankish Gaul\nColumbanus gathered twelve companions for his journey\u2014Saint Attala, Columbanus the Younger, Cummain, Domgal (Deicolus), Eogain, Eunan, Saint Gall, Gurgano, Libran, Lua, Sigisbert, and Waldoleno\u2014and together they set sail for the continent. After a brief stop in Britain, most likely on the Scottish coast, they crossed the channel and landed in Brittany in 585.[1] At Saint-Malo in Brittany, there is a granite cross bearing the saint's name to which people once came to pray for rain in times of drought. The nearby village of Saint-Coulomb commemorates him in name.[12]\nColumbanus and his companions were received with favour by King Gontram of Burgundy, and soon they made their way to Annegray, where they founded a monastery in an abandoned Roman fortress. Despite its remote location in the Vosges Mountains, the community became a popular pilgrimage site that attracted so many monastic vocations that two new monasteries had to be formed to accommodate them.[13] In 590, Columbanus obtained from King Gontram the Gallo-Roman castle called Luxovium in present-day Luxeuil-les-Bains, some eight miles from Annegray.[14] The castle, soon transformed into a monastery, was located in a wild region, thickly covered with pine forests and brushwood. Columbanus erected a third monastery called Ad-fontanas at present-day Fontaine-l\u00e8s-Luxeuil, named for its numerous springs.[1][14] These monastic communities remained under Columbanus' authority, and their rules of life reflected the Irish tradition in which he had been formed. As these communities expanded and drew more pilgrims, Columbanus sought greater solitude, spending periods of time in a hermitage and communicating with the monks through an intermediary. Often he would withdraw to a cave seven miles away, with a single companion who acted as messenger between himself and his companions.[1][13][14]\nDuring his twenty years in Gaul (in present-day France), Columbanus became involved in a dispute with the Frankish bishops who may have feared his growing influence. During the first half of the sixth century, the councils of Gaul had given to bishops absolute authority over religious communities. As heirs to the Irish monastic tradition, Columbanus and his monks used the Irish Easter calculation, a version of Bishop Augustalis's 84-year computus for determining the date of Easter (Quartodecimanism), whereas the Franks had adopted the Victorian cycle of 532 years. The bishops objected to the newcomers' continued observance of their own dating, which\u2014among other issues\u2014caused the end of Lent to differ. They also complained about the distinct Irish tonsure. In 602, the bishops assembled to judge Columbanus, but he did not appear before them as requested. Instead, he sent a letter to the prelates\u2014a strange mixture of freedom, reverence, and charity\u2014admonishing them to hold synods more frequently, and advising them to pay more attention to matters of equal importance to that of the date of Easter. In defence of his following his traditional paschal cycle, he wrote:\nI am not the author of this divergence. I came as a poor stranger into these parts for the cause of Christ, Our Saviour. One thing alone I ask of you, holy Fathers, permit me to live in silence in these forests, near the bones of seventeen of my brethren now dead.[7]\nWhen the bishops refused to abandon the matter, Columbanus, following Saint Patrick's canon, appealed directly to Pope Gregory I. In the third and only surviving letter, he asks \"the holy Pope, his Father\" to provide \"the strong support of his authority\" and to render a \"verdict of his favour\", apologising for \"presuming to argue as it were, with him who sits in the chair of Peter, Apostle and Bearer of the Keys\". None of the letters were answered, most likely due to the pope's death in 604.[1] Columbanus then sent a letter to Gregory's successor, Pope Boniface IV, asking him to confirm the tradition of his elders\u2014if it is not contrary to the Faith\u2014so that he and his monks can follow the rites of their ancestors. Before Boniface responded, Columbanus moved outside the jurisdiction of the Frankish bishops. Since the Easter issue appears to end around that time, Columbanus may have stopped celebrating Irish date of Easter after moving to Italy.[1][Note 3]\nColumbanus was also involved in a dispute with members of the Frankish royal family. Upon the death of King Gontram of Burgundy, the succession passed to his nephew, Childebert II, the son of his brother Sigebert and Sigebert's wife Brunhilda of Austrasia. When Childebert II died, he left two sons, Theuderic II who inherited the Kingdom of Burgundy, and Theudebert II who inherited the Kingdom of Austrasia. Since both were minors, Brunhilda, their grandmother, declared herself their guardian and controlled the governments of the two kingdoms.[1]\nTheuderic II venerated Columbanus and often visited him, but the saint admonished and rebuked him for his behaviour. When Theuderic began living with a mistress, the saint objected, earning the displeasure of Brunhilda, who thought a royal marriage would threaten her own power.[13] The saint did not spare the demoralised court, and Brunhilda became his bitterest foe.[16] Angered by the saint's moral stand, Brunhilda stirred up the bishops and nobles to find fault with his monastic rules. When Theuderic II finally confronted Columbanus at Luxeuil, ordering him to conform to the country's conventions, the saint refused and was then taken prisoner to Besan\u00e7on. Columbanus managed to escape his captors and returned to his monastery at Luxeuil. When the king and his grandmother found out, they sent soldiers to drive him back to Ireland by force, separating him from his monks by insisting that only those from Ireland could accompany him into exile.[1]\nColumbanus was taken to Nevers, then travelled by boat down the Loire river to the coast. At Tours he visited the tomb of Saint Martin, and sent a message to Theuderic II indicating that within three years he and his children would perish. When he arrived at Nantes, he wrote a letter before embarkation to his fellow monks at Luxeuil monastery. Filled with love and affection, the letter urges his brethren to obey Attala, who stayed behind as abbot of the monastic community.[1] The letter concludes:\nThey come to tell me the ship is ready. The end of my parchment compels me to finish my letter. Love is not orderly; it is this which has made it confused. Farewell, dear hearts of mine; pray for me that I may live in God.[1]\nSoon after the ship set sail from Nantes, a severe storm drove the vessel back ashore. Convinced that his holy passenger caused the tempest, the captain refused further attempts to transport the monk. Columbanus made his way across Gaul to visit King Chlothar II of Neustria at Soissons where he was gladly received. Despite the king's offers to stay in his kingdom, Columbanus left Neustria in 611 for the court of King Theudebert II of Austrasia in the northeastern part of the Kingdom of the Merovingian Franks.[1]\nColumbanus travelled to Metz, where he received an honourable welcome, and then proceeding to Mainz, where he sailed upwards the Rhine river to the lands of the Suebi and Alemanni in the northern Alps, intending to preach the Gospel to these people. He followed the Rhine river and its tributaries, the Aar and the Limmat, and then on to Lake Zurich. Columbanus chose the village of Tuggen as his initial community, but the work was not successful.[1] He continued north-east by way of Arbon to Bregenz on Lake Constance. Here the saint found an oratory dedicated to Saint Aurelia containing three brass images of their tutelary deities. Columbanus commanded Gallus, who knew the local language, to preach to the inhabitants, and many were converted. The three brass images were destroyed, and Columbanus blessed the little church, placing the relics of Saint Aurelia beneath the altar. A monastery was erected, Mehrerau Abbey, and the brethren observed their regular life. Columbanus stayed in Bregenz for about one year.[1] Following an uprising against the community, possibly related to that region being taken over by the saint's old enemy King Theuderic II, Columbanus resolved to cross the Alps into Italy.[1] Gallus remained in this area and died there 646. About seventy years later at the place of Gallus' cell the Monastery of Saint Gall was founded, which in itself was the origin of the city of St. Gallen again about another three hundred years later.\nColumbanus in the Alps and Italy\nColumbanus arrived in Milan in 612 and was warmly greeted by King Agilulf and Queen Theodelinda of the Lombards.[Note 4] He immediately began refuting the teachings of Arianism, which had enjoyed a degree of acceptance in Italy. He wrote a treatise against Arianism, which has since been lost. Queen Theodelinda, the devout daughter of Duke Garibald I of Bavaria, played an important role in restoring Nicene Christianity to a position of primacy against Arianism, and was largely responsible for the king's conversion to Christianity.[1]\nAt the king's request, Columbanus wrote a letter to Pope Boniface IV on the controversy over the Three Chapters\u2014writings by Syrian bishops suspected of Nestorianism, which had been condemned in the fifth century as heresy. Pope Gregory I had tolerated in Lombardy those persons who defended the Three Letters, among them King Agilulf. Columbanus agreed to take up the issue on behalf of the king. The letter begins with an apology that a \"foolish Scot (Scottus, Irishman)\" would be writing for a Lombard king. After acquainting the pope with the imputations brought against him, he entreats the pontiff to prove his orthodoxy and assemble a council. He writes that his freedom of speech is consistent with the custom of his country.[1] Some of the language used in the letter might now be regarded as disrespectful, but in that time, faith and austerity could be more indulgent.[19] At the same time, the letter expresses the most affectionate and impassioned devotion to the Holy See.\nWe Irish, though dwelling at the far ends of the earth, are all disciples of Saint Peter and Saint Paul ... we are bound to the Chair of Peter, and although Rome is great and renowned, through that Chair alone is she looked on as great and illustrious among us ... On account of the two Apostles of Christ, you are almost celestial, and Rome is the head of the whole world, and of the Churches.\nIf Columbanus' zeal for orthodoxy caused him to overstep the limits of discretion, his real attitude towards Rome is sufficiently clear, calling the pope \"his Lord and Father in Christ\", the \"Chosen Watchman\", and the \"First Pastor, set higher than all mortals\".[20]\nFacade of the Abbey in Bobbio\nKing Agilulf gave Columbanus a tract of land called Bobbio between Milan and Genoa near the Trebbia river, situated in a defile of the Apennine Mountains, to be used as a base for the conversion of the Lombard people. The area contained a ruined church and wastelands known as Ebovium, which had formed part of the lands of the papacy prior to the Lombard invasion. Columbanus wanted this secluded place, for while enthusiastic in the instruction of the Lombards he preferred solitude for his monks and himself. Next to the little church, which was dedicated to Saint Peter, Columbanus erected a monastery in 614. Bobbio Abbey at its foundation followed the Rule of Saint Columbanus, based on the monastic practices of Celtic Christianity. For centuries it remained the stronghold of orthodoxy in northern Italy.[1][Note 5]\nStone bridge over the Trebbia river leading to Bobbio Abbey in northern Italy\nDuring the last year of his life, Columbanus received messenges from King Chlothar II, inviting the saint to return to Burgundy, now that his enemies were dead. Columbanus did not return, but requested that the king should always protect his monks at Luxeuil Abbey. He prepared for death by retiring to his cave on the mountainside overlooking the Trebbia river, where, according to a tradition, he had dedicated an oratory to Our Lady.[21] Columbanus died at Bobbio on 21 November 615.\nRule of Saint Columbanus\nThe Rule of Saint Columbanus embodied the customs of Bangor Abbey and other Irish monasteries. Much shorter than the Rule of Saint Benedict, the Rule of Saint Columbanus consists of ten chapters, on the subjects of obedience, silence, food, poverty, humility, chastity, choir offices, discretion, mortification, and perfection.[22]\nIn the first chapter, Columbanus introduces the great principle of his Rule: obedience, absolute and unreserved. The words of seniors should always be obeyed, just as \"Christ obeyed the Father up to death for us.\"[22] One manifestation of this obedience was constant hard labour designed to subdue the flesh, exercise the will in daily self-denial, and set an example of industry in cultivation of the soil. The least deviation from the Rule entailed corporal punishment, or a severe form of fasting.[7] In the second chapter, Columbanus instructs that the rule of silence be \"carefully observed\", since it is written: \"But the nurture of righteousness is silence and peace\". He also warns, \"Justly will they be damned who would not say just things when they could, but preferred to say with garrulous loquacity what is evil ...\"[22] In the third chapter, Columbanus instructs, \"Let the monks' food be poor and taken in the evening, such as to avoid repletion, and their drink such as to avoid intoxication, so that it may both maintain life and not harm ...\"[22] Columbanus continues:\nFor indeed those who desire eternal rewards must only consider usefulness and use. Use of life must be moderated just as toil must be moderated, since this is true discretion, that the possibility of spiritual progress may be kept with a temperance that punishes the flesh. For if temperance exceeds measure, it will be a vice and not a virtue; for virtue maintains and retains many goods. Therefore we must fast daily, just as we must feed daily; and while we must eat daily, we must gratify the body more poorly and sparingly ...\"[22]\nFresco of Saint Columbanus in Brugnato Cathedral\nIn the fourth chapter, Columbanus presents the virtue of poverty and of overcoming greed, and that monks should be satisfied with \"small possessions of utter need, knowing that greed is a leprosy for monks\". Columbanus also instructs that \"nakedness and disdain of riches are the first perfection of monks, but the second is the purging of vices, the third the most perfect and perpetual love of God and unceasing affection for things divine, which follows on the forgetfulness of earthly things. Since this is so, we have need of few things, according to the word of the Lord, or even of one.\"[22] In the fifth chapter, Columbanus warns against vanity, reminding the monks of Jesus' warning in Luke 16:15: \"You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of others, but God knows your hearts. What people value highly is detestable in God's sight.\"[22] In the sixth chapter, Columbanus instructs that \"a monk's chastity is indeed judged in his thoughts\" and warns, \"What profit is it if he be virgin in body, if he be not virgin in mind? For God, being Spirit.\"[22]\nIn the seventh chapter, Columbanus instituted a service of perpetual prayer, known as laus perennis, by which choir succeeded choir, both day and night.[23] In the eighth chapter, Columbanus stresses the importance of discretion in the lives of monks to avoid \"the downfall of some, who beginning without discretion and passing their time without a sobering knowledge, have been unable to complete a praiseworthy life.\" Monks are instructed to pray to God for to \"illumine this way, surrounded on every side by the world's thickest darkness\".[22] Columbanus continues:\nSo discretion has got its name from discerning, for the reason that it discerns in us between good and evil, and also between the moderate and the complete. For from the beginning either class has been divided like light and darkness, that is, good and evil, after evil began through the devil's agency to exist by the corruption of good, but through God's agency Who first illumines and then divides. Thus righteous Abel chose the good, but unrighteous Cain fell upon evil.\"[22]\nIn the ninth chapter, Columbanus presents mortification as an essential element in the lives of monks, who are instructed, \"Do nothing without counsel.\" Monks are warned to \"beware of a proud independence, and learn true lowliness as they obey without murmuring and hesitation.\"[22] According to the Rule, there are three components to mortification: \"not to disagree in mind, not to speak as one pleases with the tongue, not to go anywhere with complete freedom.\" This mirrors the words of Jesus, \"For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.\" (John 6:38) In the tenth and final chapter, Columbanus regulates forms of penance (often corporal) for offences, and it is here that the Rule of Saint Columbanus differs significantly from that of Saint Benedict.[1]\nThe habit of the monks consisted of a tunic of undyed wool, over which was worn the cuculla, or cowl, of the same material. A great deal of time was devoted to various kinds of manual labour, not unlike the life in monasteries of other rules. The Rule of Saint Columbanus was approved of by the Synod of M\u00e2con in 627, but it was superseded at the close of the century by the Rule of Saint Benedict. For several centuries in some of the greater monasteries the two rules were observed conjointly.[1]\nColumbanus did not lead a perfect life. According to Jonas and other sources, he could be impetuous and even headstrong, for by nature he was eager, passionate, and dauntless. These qualities were both the source of his power and the cause of his mistakes.[1] His virtues, however, were quite remarkable. Like many saints, he had a great love for God's creatures. Stories claim that as he walked in the woods, it was not uncommon for birds to land on his shoulders to be caressed, or for squirrels to run down from the trees and nestle in the folds of his cowl.[1] Although a strong defender of Irish traditions, he never wavered in showing deep respect for the Holy See as the supreme authority. His influence in Europe was due to the conversions he effected and to the rule that he composed. It may be that the example and success of Saint Columba in Caledonia inspired him to similar exertions.[1] The life of Columbanus stands as the prototype of missionary activity in Europe, followed by such men as Saint Kilian, Vergilius of Salzburg, Donatus of Fiesole, Wilfrid, Willibrord, Suitbert of Kaiserwerdt, Saint Boniface, and Ursicinus of Saint-Ursanne.[1]\nThe following are the principal miracles attributed to his intercession:[1]\nProcuring food for a sick monk and curing the wife of his benefactor\nEscaping injury while surrounded by wolves\nCausing a bear to evacuate a cave at his biddings\nProducing a spring of water near his cave\nReplenishing the Luxeuil granary\nMultiplying bread and beer for his community\nCuring sick monks, who rose from their beds at his request to reap the harvest\nGiving sight to a blind man at Orleans\nDestroying with his breath a cauldron of beer prepared for a pagan festival\nTaming a bear and yoking it to a plough\nJonas relates the occurrence of a miracle during Columbanus' time in Bregenz, when that region was experiencing a period of severe famine.\nAlthough they were without food, they were bold and unterrified in their faith, so that they obtained food from the Lord. After their bodies had been exhausted by three days of fasting, they found so great an abundance of birds, just as the quails formerly covered the camp of the children of Israel, that the whole country near there was filled with birds. The man of God knew that this food had been scattered on the ground for his own safety and that of his brethren, and that the birds had come only because he was there. He ordered his followers first to render grateful praises to the Creator, and then to take the birds as food. And it was a wonderful and stupendous miracle; for the birds were seized according to the father's commands and did not attempt to fly away. The manna of birds remained for three days. On the fourth day, a priest from an adjacent city, warned by divine inspiration, sent a supply of grain to Saint Columban. When the supply of grain arrived, the Omnipotent, who had furnished the winged food to those in want, immediately commanded the phalanxes of birds to depart. We learned this from Eustasius, who was present with the others, under the command of the servant of God. He said that no one of them remembered ever having seen birds of such a kind before; and the food was of so pleasant savor that it surpassed royal viands. Oh, wonderful gift of divine mercy![24]\nMonastery ruins at Annegray\nCoat of Arms of Bobbio with doves, symbol of Columbanus\nIn France, the ruins of Columbanus' first monastery at Annegray are legally protected through the efforts of the Association Internationale des Amis de St Columban, which purchased the site in 1959. The association also owns and protects the site containing the cave, which acted as Columbanus' cell, and the holy well, which he created nearby.[12] At Luxeuil-les-Bains, the Basilica of Saint Peter stands on the site of Columbanus' first church. A statue near the entrance, unveiled in 1947, shows him denouncing the immoral life of King Theuderic II. Formally an abbey church, the basilica contains old monastic buildings, which have been used as a minor seminary since the nineteenth century. It is dedicated to Columbanus and houses a bronze statue of him in its courtyard.[12]\nIn Lombardy, San Colombano al Lambro in Milan, San Colombano Belmonte in Turin, and San Colombano Cert\u00e9noli in Genoa all take their names from the saint.[25] The last monastery erected by Columbanus at Bobbio remained for centuries the stronghold of orthodoxy in northern Italy.[1]\nIf Bobbio Abbey in Italy became a citadel of faith and learning, Luxeuil Abbey in France became the \"nursery of saints and apostles\".[1] The monastery produced sixty-three apostles who carried his rule, together with the Gospel, into France, Germany, Switzerland, and Italy.[26] These disciples of Columbanus are accredited with founding over one hundred different monasteries.[27] The canton and town still bearing the name of St. Gallen testify to how well one of his disciples succeeded.\nThe Missionary Society of Saint Columban, founded in 1916, and the Missionary Sisters of St. Columban, founded in 1924, are both dedicated to Columbanus.\nRemains of Columbanus, Bobbio Abbey crypt\nThe remains of Columbanus are preserved in the crypt at Bobbio Abbey. Many miracles have been credited to his intercession. In 1482, the relics were placed in a new shrine and laid beneath the altar of the crypt. The sacristy at Bobbio possesses a portion of the skull of the saint, his knife, wooden cup, bell, and an ancient water vessel, formerly containing sacred relics and said to have been given to him by Pope Gregory I. According to some authorities, twelve teeth of the saint were taken from the tomb in the fifteenth century and kept in the treasury, but these have since disappeared.[28]\nColumbanus is named in the Roman Martyrology on 23 November, which is his feast day in Ireland. His feast is observed by the Benedictines on 24 November. Columbanus is the patron saint of motorcyclists. In art, Columbanus is represented bearded bearing the monastic cowl, holding in his hand a book with an Irish satchel, and standing in the midst of wolves. Sometimes he is depicted in the attitude of taming a bear, or with sun-beams over his head.[29]\n^ Walker's edition is also available on CELT (University College Cork), a website that provides Irish medieval sources with English translations. A critical edition of Jonas' Vita Columbani was published in 1905 by Bruno Krusch in Monumenta Germaniae Historica, Scriptores Rerum Germaincarum in usum schoarum, vol. 37, Hannover: Hahn 1905. See also Internet Medieval Sourcebook.\n^ Cluaninis is derived from the Irish words \"Cluan Inis\", which mean \"meadow island\". The remains of the monastery can be seen at Bellanaleck, County Fermanagh.\n^ The Italians themselves followed a third system of reckoning Easter, based on the improvements to Victorius's system introduced by Dionysius Exiguus at the time he devised the Anno Domini dating system.[15]\n^ Some scholars believe that Columbanus made two journeys into Italy, which were confounded by Jonas. On his first journey, Columbanus went to Rome and received from Pope Gregory I sacred relics.[17] This may possibly explain the traditional spot in St. Peter's, where Pope Gregory I and Columbanus are supposed to have met.[18]\n^ Bobbio Abbey may have been the model for the monastery in northern Italy in Umberto Eco's novel The Name of the Rose.\n^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z aa ab ac ad ae af ag Edmonds, Columba (1908). \"St. Columbanus\".

It is located in the Trebbia River valley southwest of the town Piacenza. There is also an abbey and a diocese of the same name. Bobbio is the administrative center of the Unione Montana Valli Trebbia e Luretta.\nBobbio Abbey\nBobbio Abbey (Italian: Abbazia di San Colombano) is a monastery founded by Irish Saint Columbanus in 614, around which later grew up the town of Bobbio, in the province of Piacenza, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. It is dedicated to Saint Columbanus. It was famous as a centre of resistance to Arianism and as one of the greatest libraries in the Middle Ages, and was the original on which the monastery in Umberto Eco's novel The Name of the Rose was based, together with Sacra di San Michele. The abbey was dissolved under the French administration in 1803, although many of the buildings remain in other uses.\nCheddar Palace\nThe Cheddar Palace was established in the 9th century, in Cheddar, Somerset, England. It was a royal hunting lodge in the Anglo-Saxon and medieval periods and hosted the Witenagemot in the 10th century.\nNearby are the ruins of the 14th century St Columbanus Chapel. Roman artifacts and a burial have also been discovered. The site of the palace is now marked by concrete slabs within the grounds of The Kings of Wessex Academy.\nColumba Murphy\nColumba Murphy, SS.CC. (born James Murphy; 1806 \u2013 by 1848) was French Catholic priest of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, a religious institute of the Roman Catholic Church. He helped found the Roman Catholic mission in the Gambier Islands and was one of the first Catholic missionaries to arrive in the Kingdom of Hawaii during the persecution by Kaahumanu, Kamehameha III and their American Congregationalist advisors.\nSaint Comgall (c. 510\u2013520 \u2013 597/602), an early Irish saint, was the founder and abbot of the great Irish monastery at Bangor in present-day Northern Ireland.\nDag\u00e1n\nDag\u00e1n was an Irish bishop in Anglo-Saxon England during the early part of the 7th century.\nDag\u00e1n is known from a letter written by Archbishop Laurence of Canterbury to the Irish bishops and abbots, in which Laurence attempted to persuade the Irish clergy to accept the Roman method of calculating the date of Easter. Dag\u00e1n is mentioned in the letter as having recently arrived in Kent. Laurence mentions that Dag\u00e1n had refused to either share a roof with the Roman missionaries or to eat with them. The full mention of Dag\u00e1n is \"But we have learned from bishop Dag\u00e1n who came to the above-mentioned island [Britannia] and from abbot Columbanus in Gaul, that they [the Irish clergy] do not differ from the Britons in their way of life. For when Bishop Dagan came to us he refused to take food, not only with us but even in the very house where we took meals.\" The letter is preserved in Bede's Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum, but as it is recorded there it lacks any closing formulas, so dating it is difficult. Although a date of shortly after 610 has been put forward by Paul Grossjean, the letter could have been written at any time between around 605, when Laurence became archbishop and around 616, when King \u00c6thelberht of Kent died and a pagan reaction against the missionaries set in.The letter provides no sure dating for when the missionaries met with Dag\u00e1n, as it does not specify that the meeting took place during Laurence's tenure of Canterbury, merely that it had occurred prior to the letter being sent. This gives a possibility of between the missionaries arrival and Laurence's death. The Gregorian mission arrived in Kent in 597, and it known that Augustine of Canterbury, the leader of the mission, met native Celtic Church bishops at least once, although the meeting did not go well.Besides the letter, which is the only contemporary record of Dag\u00e1n, there are mentions of him in Irish annals and in an episcopal list preserved in the Book of Leinster, but none of these other mentions are contemporary to Dagan's lifetime. Nor is there a hagiography on his life. He should not be confused with Daig mac Cairill, the patron saint of Inis Cain, who died around 587. Occasionally Dag\u00e1n has been claimed as a monk of Bangor, but this appears to stem from confusion with Daig mac Cairill, who was a monk there. The other mentions of Dag\u00e1n give him a death date of around 640. Later scholars, including John Bale, attributed a letter entitled ad Brytannorum ecclesias, but this is mistaken. Further late records have Dag\u00e1n moving to Scotland, where he settled at Whithorn and became \"ruling cleric\" there.The Stowe Missal as well as the Martyrology of Tallaght, both of which were composed about 830, show that Dag\u00e1n was revered as a saint at that point. The Martyrology of Tallaght gives a feast date of 12 March for him, and states that the date is his death date. Other maryrologies give a feast date of 13 September, which may mean that there were two different Dag\u00e1n's who early writers confused.The historian Roy Flechner has pointed out that it was possible that Dag\u00e1n's refusal to share a meal or a roof with the Gregorian missionaries was a form of excommunication that is described in some Irish legal books.Some historians have identified this Bishop Dag\u00e1n with Dag\u00e1n of Inber Doile, who died around 640, and was either a bishop or priest at Inber Doile. Objections to this identification include the fact that to have been consecrated a bishop at the canonically minimum age of 30, he would have been quite old at his death in 640 or so. Another objection is that many of the documents mentioning Dag\u00e1n of Inber Doile do not style him a bishop, although a few do. Definitive proof of whether or not the Dag\u00e1n the bishop of Laurence's letter is the same as Dag\u00e1n of Inber Doile is lacking.Flechner has also pointed out that a letter of Columbanus mentions Dagon, the Philistine fertility god. However, according to Flechner, Columbanus was fond of puns dealing with proper names and may have also intended the reference to Dagon to also refer to Dag\u00e1n, the Irish bishop mentioned by Laurence.\nA double monastery (also double house) is a monastery combining a separate community of monks and one of nuns, joined in one institution. More common in the monasticism of Eastern Christianity, where they are found since the 4th century, in the West the establishment of double monasteries became popular after Columbanus and were found in Anglo-Saxon England and Gaul. Double monasteries were forbidden by the Second Council of Nicaea in 787, though it took many years for the decree to be enforced. In a significantly different way, double monasteries were revived again after the 12th century, when a number of religious houses were established on this pattern, among Benedictines and possibly the Dominicans. The 14th-century Bridgittines were consciously founded using this form of community.\nExamples include the original Coldingham Monastery in Scotland, Barking Abbey in London, and Einsiedeln Abbey and Fahr Monastery in Switzerland, controlled by the abbot of Einsiedeln. In general, monks and nuns lived in separate buildings but were usually united under an Abbess as head of the entire household, and would have chanted the Liturgy of the Hours and attended Mass together in the Chapel. Either an abbess or an abbot would normally have control over both houses, and it was only in exceptional circumstances that each would have its own superior.\nFelix of Burgundy\nFelix of Burgundy, also known as Felix of Dunwich (died 8 March 647 or 648), was a saint and the first bishop of the East Angles. He is widely credited as the man who introduced Christianity to the kingdom of East Anglia. Almost all that is known about the saint originates from The Ecclesiastical History of the English People, completed by Bede in about 731, and the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. Bede praised Felix for delivering \"all the province of East Anglia from long-standing unrighteousness and unhappiness\".\nFelix, who originated from the Frankish kingdom of Burgundy, may have been a priest at one of the monasteries in Francia founded by the Irish missionary Columbanus: the existence of a Bishop of Ch\u00e2lons with the same name may not be a coincidence. Felix travelled from his homeland of Burgundy to Canterbury before being sent by Honorius to Sigeberht of East Anglia's kingdom in about 630, (by sea to Babingley in Norfolk, according to local legend). On arrival in East Anglia, Sigeberht gave him a see at Dommoc (possibly Walton, Suffolk or Dunwich in Suffolk). According to Bede, Felix helped Sigeberht to establish a school in his kingdom \"where boys could be taught letters\". He died on 8 March 647 or 648, having been bishop for seventeen years. His relics were translated from Dommoc to Soham Abbey and then to the abbey at Ramsey.\nAfter his death, Felix was venerated as a saint: several English churches are dedicated to him. Felix's feast date is 8 March.\nThe Hiberno-Scottish mission was a series of missions and expeditions initiated by various Irish clerics and cleric-scholars who, for the most part, are not known to have acted in concert. There was no overall coordinated mission, but there were nevertheless sporadic missions initiated by Gaelic monks from Ireland and the western coast of modern-day Scotland, which contributed to the spread of Christianity and established monasteries in Britain and continental Europe during the Middle Ages. The earliest recorded Irish mission can be dated to 563 with the foundation of Iona by the Irish monk Saint Columba. Columba is said by Bede and Adamn\u00e1n to have ministered to the Gaels of D\u00e1l Riada and converted the northern Pictish kingdoms. Over the next centuries more missions followed and spread through Anglo-Saxon England and the Frankish Empire. These early missions were, from the 18th and 19th centuries, so-called 'Celtic Christianity', though aside from some idiosyncratic cultural features, it was orthodox and maintained relationships with the Holy See.The Latin term Scotti refers to the Gaelic-speaking people of Ireland and the Irish who settled in western Scotland. In early medieval times Ireland was known as \"\u00c9ire\" (Irish), \"Hibernia\" and \"Scotia\" (Latin). By the end of the 11th century it generally referred to Gaelic Scotland, which had become Gaelicised by settlers from Ireland, and from where the name Scotland derives. Thus, the \"Scots\" missionaries who so influential in the early Church history of Germany included men from both modern countries, though mainly from Ireland.Schottenkl\u00f6ster (German for \"Irish monasteries\") is the name applied to the monastic foundations of Gaelic missionaries in Continental Europe, particularly to the Scottish Benedictine monasteries in Germany, which in the beginning of the 13th century were combined into one congregation whose abbot-general was the Abbot of the Scots monastery at Regensburg. Ireland's sobriquet \"Island of Saints and Scholars\" derives from this period, when scholars and missionaries from Ireland exerted great influence on Continental Europe.\nMonk Jonas of Bobbio or Jonas Bobiensis (Sigusia, now Susa, Italy, c. 600 \u2013 after 659) was a Columbanian monk and writer of hagiography, among which his Life of Saint Columbanus is notable.\nIn 618, Jonas arrived at the monastery of Bobbio Abbey in the province of Pavia, just three years after the death of its founder Columbanus, and he asserted that he had based his account of the great Irish saint on the testimony of persons who had known him intimately, such as the saint's companions.\nJonas was appointed to a position of confidence, probably that of secretary to the abbot Attala (died 627) and to his successor Bertulf, whom Jonas accompanied on a journey to Rome in 628. Immediately after his return he moved to Gaul, and his life of Eustace, Abbot of Luxeuil, (died 629), reflects personal acquaintance.\nJonas was appealed to by Saint Amand for assistance in his missionary work among the pagans of what is now Belgium and northern France, which occasioned his vita of Saint Vedast or Vaast, the first Frankish Bishop of Arras. In fulfillment of a promise made to the Black Monks of Bobbio during a short return visit to the monastery in 639, he wrote between 640 and 643 his principal work, the Life of St. Columbanus. The work mainly focuses on proper practices of Christianity and the events which occurred in a female monastery related to \"Ye Olde Devil.\"\nIn 659, when he was sent by the Queen-Regent Balthild on a mission to Chalon-sur-Sa\u00f4ne, he was referred to as \"abbot\", though of which monastery it cannot now be determined. During this journey he sojourned for a few days at the monastery of R\u00e9\u00f4me (Reomans, now Moutiers-Saint-Jean) in the diocese of Langres. To comply with a request made by the monks on this occasion he wrote the life of their founder.\nThe other works of Jonas are lives of the abbots Attala and Bertulf of Bobbio, of abbot Eustace of Luxeuil, an abbey founded by Columbanus that retained close personal ties with Bobbio, and of the abbess Burgundofara (or Fara) of Evoriac (modern Faremoutiers).\nJonas personally knew Eustace, Attala, and Bertulf. Bede incorporated these lives into his Ecclesiastical History, while Flodoard turned that of Columbanus into hexameter verse. The \"Life of St. Fara\" is chiefly an account of miraculous events alleged to have occurred during this saint's rule at Evoriac, but Jonas' elaborate and fantastically miraculous account contains nuggets of historical information that throw light upon a poorly documented time.\nThe works of Jonas, exclusive of the \"Life of St. Vaast\", are printed in Patrologia Latina LXXXVII, 1011\u201388; a better edition by Krusch is in Monumenta Germaniae Historica: Script. Rer. Mer., III, 406-13, 505-17; IV, 61-152 (Hannover, 1896 and 1902).\nKnights of Saint Columbanus\nThe Order of the Knights of Saint Columbanus (Irish: Ridir\u00ed Naomh Cholumba) is an Irish national Catholic fraternal organisation. Founded by Canon James K. O'Neill in Belfast, Ireland in 1915, it was named in honour of the Irish saint, Saint Columbanus. Initially established as a mutual benefit society to working class Catholics, it has developed into a fraternal benefit society dedicated to providing charitable services to all areas of the Irish community.There are 68 councils across all 32 counties on the island of Ireland. Membership of the order is open to all practicing Catholic men and their families aged 18 and over. There is a youth division of the order open to younger men aged from 16 up called the Associate Knights of St Columbanus. The Order is a founding member of the International Alliance of Catholic Knights.The Pope John Paul II Awards have been chosen by the Knights of St Columbanus as its National Project and have been financially supporting the Awards throughout Ireland. The Award, established in 2006 in the Diocese of Derry, recognises and encourages active involvement of 16-18 year olds in the life of their parish and community.\nLuxeuil Abbey (French pronunciation: \u200b[lyks\u0153j]), the Abbaye Saint-Pierre et Sain-Paul, was one of the oldest and best-known monasteries in Burgundy, located in what is now the d\u00e9partement of Haute-Sa\u00f4ne in Franche-Comt\u00e9, France.\nMo Sinu moccu Min\nMo Sinu moccu Min, also known as Sinilis, Sinl\u00e1n Moccu M\u00edn (died 610) was an Irish scholar.\nFifth abbot of Bangor, \"Mo-Sinu maccu Min ... was the first of the Hibernenses who learned the computus by heart from a certain Greek. Afterwards, Mo-Chuor\u00f3c maccu Neth S\u00e9mon, whom the Romani styled doctor of the whole world, and a pupil of the aforesaid scholar, in the island called Crannach of Duin Lethglaisse (Downpatrick), committed this knowledge to writing, lest it should fade from memory.\" This computus is thought to have been an oro numerorum.\nIt is thought that he is identical to the Sinilis who tutored Columbanus, according to Jonas of Bobbio. If so, he would have taught Columbanus in the years prior to his departure to France about 585.\nRobin Flower wrote of him that \"It is clear that particular attention was paid to historical studies at Bangor, and the earliest Irish chronicle was probably a production of that house. It has been attributed with good reason to Sinl\u00e1n Moccu M\u00edn, that Sinlanus who is described in the list of abbots in the Antiphonary of Bangor as the 'famed teacher of the world.'\" Flower also suggested that he was the teacher in the monastic school of Bangor on Cranny Island in Strangford Lough, and that the chronicle, like the computus, \"was compiled under his supervision rather than actually written in his own hands.\"\nSaint-Colomban, Quebec\nSaint-Colomban is a city in the regional county municipality of La Rivi\u00e8re-du-Nord in Qu\u00e9bec, Canada. It is situated in the Laurentides region of Qu\u00e9bec and was named in honour of Saint Columbanus.\nThe pioneer responsible for developing the village was the priest John Falvey, who constructed the parish and preached to the first parishioners.\nSaint-Colomban was also the birthplace of Mr. Justice Emmett Hall, a justice of the Supreme Court of Canada widely considered to be one of the fathers of Medicare.\nSaint Gall, or Gallus (c. 550 \u2013 c. 646, German: Sankt Gallus) according to hagiographic tradition was a disciple and one of the traditional twelve companions of Saint Columbanus on his mission from Ireland to the continent. Saint Deicolus was the elder brother of Gall.\nSt Columbanus' College\nSt. Columbanus' College (Irish: Col\u00e1iste Naomh Columb\u00e1n) is a Roman Catholic secondary school situated on the Ballymaconnell Road, Bangor, County Down, Northern Ireland. Its main education board of choice is CCEA, but the school also uses AQA, Edexcel and OCR for certain subjects.\nWaldalenus\nWaldalenus or Wandalenus (late 6th \u2013 early 7th century), dux in the region between the Alps and the Jura, in the Frankish Kingdom of Burgundy, was a Frankish magnate who served as mayor of the Austrasian palace at Metz from 581, during the minority of Childebert II.One of his seats of government (palatium) as Patricius of Burgundy was at Arlay on the \"Salt Road\", noted in 597. There his son, Donatus of Luxeuil, would found the Abbey of Saint-Vincent, destroyed by Otto II of Burgundy.\nHe was a well-known patron of Columbanus at Luxeuil Abbey (founded around 585\u201390), where he dedicated one son to the Church, and thus provided early support for Hiberno-Frankish monasticism in Western Europe: \"This family's connections stretched into Provence and would prove highly influential in seventh-century Frankish politics,\" Marilyn Dunn notes. Both Eustasius and Waldebert, kinsmen of Waldalenus, succeeded Columbanus as second and third abbots of Luxeuil. The extended family of Waldelenus controlled the Alpine passes approached from Brian\u00e7on, those of Susa (the Col de Montgen\u00e8vre), Embrun, and Gap. Abbo, Patrician of Provence and rector of Maurienne and Susa, the opponent of Maurontus, came from the family of Waldelenus.His opponents in Burgundy represented the influence of Willibad (died 642), the Patrician of Burgundy (or Burgundian Provence) Willibad may not have been a Frank but perhaps a Burgundian, one of the last representatives of the native nobility. The centre of Willibad's power was Lyon, Vienne, and Valence. Willibad continued to be confronted by the supporters of Columbanus, Waldalenus' son, Chramnelenus of Besan\u00e7on, Chramnelenus' brother-in-law Amalgar of Dijon and Wandalbert of Chambly.Waldalenus was married to Flavia, noble in birth and bearing, according to the chronicler of Columbanus and his foundations, Jonas of Bobbio, but the couple were barren, until they beseeched Columbanus to intercede for a miraculous pregnancy. Columbanus required that the first-born be dedicated to the church, and consequently Donatus, christened by Columbanus himself as the \"gift\", was raised and educated at Luxeuil and was made Bishop of Besan\u00e7on. The second son was Chramnelenus, and there were two daughters that the Merovingian chronicler did not think to name.Flavia outlived her husband and founded a convent of nuns at the dynasty's headquarters, Besan\u00e7on, where her son Donatus was bishop.\nA later Waldalenus of this house, Abbot of B\u00e8ze, came to be venerated as a saint; is noticed in a diplomatic document of September 677.\nWindy Arbour (Irish: Na Glas\u00e1in) is a small suburban village in the Dundrum area of Dublin, Ireland. Situated between Dundrum and Milltown, along the banks of the Slang River (also Dundrum or Slann River).",

To promote interdisciplinary research into the major societal challenges of our times is the aspiration driving the \u201cHumanities & Social Change International Foundation\u201d, which is unveiled in Berlin today by the Hamburg-based entrepreneur Erck Rickmers (53). \u201cI consider the world to be in a state of crisis \u2013 ecologically, economically, politically, culturally and spiritually,\u201d said Rickmers. Committed to the guiding principles \u201cUnderstand \u2013 Inspire \u2013 Change\u201d, the foundation aims to analyse the underlying causes of the societal challenges in the 21st century and to encourage the development of new solutions, and thus to actively shape social change.\nPictured from left to right: Simon Goldhill, Rahel Jaeggi, Erck Rickmers, Tom Carlson, Shaul Bassi\nHumanities & Social Change is establishing and funding an international network of initially four research centres. These include centres at the Humboldt-University zu Berlin, the University of Cambridge, the University of California and Ca` Foscari University of Venice. \u201cI am delighted that we have been able to attract these leading universities and prevail upon such distinguished and internationally renowned scholars and scientists to take over as directors of the four research centres,\u201d said Erck Rickmers.\nThe centre in Berlin, which is headed by Rahel Jaeggi, Professor of Practical Philosophy at the Humboldt-University, will focus on the crisis of capitalism and democracy.\nLed by Simon Goldhill, Professor of Greek at the University of Cambridge, the centre in Cambridge will conduct interdisciplinary research on the impact of technical innovation on society.\nThe centre based at the University of California, Santa Barbara, which is headed by Thomas Carlson, Professor of Philosophy and Religion, will examine the interplay of facts, values and truth at a time when these seem to be of dwindling importance in the public debate.\nThe topic of cultural pluralism in a world of increasing migration and religious conflicts will be the focus of research at the centre in Venice, where the team will be led by Shaul Bassi, Professor of English Literature at Ca\u2018 Foscari University.\nThe aim of the foundation and its initiatives is to champion the importance and influence of the humanities and social sciences in public discourse concerning the challenges facing today\u2019s societies. In light of the increasing power of technology in all areas of life, this interdisciplinary approach will create a more intense and productive interconnection between the humanities, the natural sciences and technology.\n\u201cIn this quest to find constructive solutions, the international scholars will actively seek to engage in direct dialogue with representatives from the world of politics, economics, the media, literature and the arts,\u201d Rickmers said.\nPublic symposia, lectures, confidential panel discussions and art projects will prove to be ideal platforms for an exchange of ideas with various target groups.\nAbout the Humanities & Social Change International Foundation\nThe Hamburg-based Humanities & Social Change International Foundation gGmbH (HSC) is a privately financed, independent and non-partisan institution.

        "raw_content": "Suspended from the\nTHE SUSPENSION OF RAY SMITH\nI was suspended from attending LCG Sabbath services in Laurel, Mississippi on February 17th, 2017 after attending three years or so.\nThe minister and I had a difference of opinion on what caused the civil war, and he told me so at the beginning of the FOT 2016. Well, I went to church while my mom was dying, and instead of finding solace, I was asked to leave by the minister because of something I allegedly posted on Facebook that the minister said offended other members. But when I asked him who, he did not say, and when I ask on Facebook for those who might had been offended to come forward, well no one came forward.\nAnyway, when I went to church, the minister, Mr Ed Breaux, ask me to go outside at which time he told me I was suspended and ask if I had gotten a letter, I said no, and he said well you will soon. A few days later, I got a letter of suspension. The letter is quite vague and says I need to repent, but it don't say of what?\nWell, I left there in tears, cause my mom was on her death bed in the hospital, and I went there hoping to get comforted, instead all I got was the devil, lol. So we met last week to try and be reconciled at Shoneys but the minister seemed to be in an accusatory mode, pointing fingers. He stated that I was \"unapproachable\", I was like Job, \"Self Righteous\", lol, wow. I asked him what I done to have those labels applied to me, and he said that someone apologized to me about their kids making so much noise and crinkling paper, etc, while the sermon was going, distracting me, but I said I ever knew of that.\nAnyway, then I mentioned the civil war differences of opinion and that I would not click on anything else that might be a stumbling block to other brethren. He said \"I don't want to discuss that\", I said ok. Then he started interrogating me about a old lawsuit I filed years ago (it is on the Internet). I said well, citizens have the right to file doe relief when slander and defamation, spreading rumors (ruining someone's reputation), has occurred. Then he started talking about some of the ladies in the congregation heard our conversation outside when he told me I was suspended. He said I got a little loud, and now the women were afraid of me? I laughed at that. Anyway, after a few minutes I abruptly ended the meeting as I saw he was not wanting to be reconciled, but rather he wanted to be judgmental, arrogant, no compassion, no empathy (my mom passed away), he did not say one thing to me about that, no condolences what so ever. So I left without being reconciled, and I use to lead the congregation in prayer, and was song leader, was in spokesman's club, etc.\nI was in UCG for 19 years before going to LCG, but now I am going to stay at home. I will not be sending any more money to LCG. So I contacted Mr Phillip Sandiland of COGWA (Laurel, Mississippi congregation) about attending that church, to find out when, where and what time. I had never been to that church, but when I received a letter from him, why I could not believe his response. I wrote a certified letter to Mr Sandilands to find out why I was not allowed to attend Sabbath service (I have never been to that church) there, but I have never gotten a reply. The letter is rude, and vague to say the least.\nSomeone has slandered me and defamed me, but I can't find out who, why where, etc. I need to find an attorney to see what is going on. I'm trying to find some answers, but it seems everyone is hush, hush. I have never had any problems in LCG until after three years or close to it, because of my civil war opinions? As you can see in the attachments, I have sent certified letters asking for some explanation (specifics), but I have got no response, why is that? I have a right to confront my accusers don't I?\nLetters are posted to the right.\nThe Armstrong Way\nOUR VIDEOS ON- YouTube",

        "raw_content": "Human foods with toxic consequences for your cat\nMost pet owners are aware that certain human foods are toxic to dogs, but there are many more who will not be aware that cats too can be poisoned by foods commonly found in our homes.\nAs part of the charity International Cat Care\u2019s Keeping Cats Safe campaign, the danger to cats from certain household foods is being highlighted.\nUnlike most dogs, cats are relatively discerning when it comes to what they eat, which is why severe poisoning from human foods in cats is rare. However, exposure to toxic human foods does still occasionally happen. Cats may eat human foodstuffs through inquisitiveness or by being fed inappropriate food by owners. Food is readily available in the home and is often left unattended or improperly stored, and many cats like to investigate shopping bags, fruit bowls and waste bins.\nFoods that are toxic to cats include chocolate (especially dark chocolate), allium species (onions, garlic, leeks, spring onions and chives), grapes (including raisins, sultanas and currants) and alcohol, as well as gone-off or mouldy foods, including some dairy products, bread, rice, fruit and nuts.\nIn the case of alcohol (ethanol), owners should be aware that toxicity might not just occur from the ingestion of traditional alcoholic drinks but also from alcohol-containing products such as surgical spirit and alcohol hand gels. Indirect exposure is the most likely way in which cats become poisoned by allium species. Onions and garlic may not be attractive to cats on their own, however they are frequently present in soups, baby foods, seasoning, stock cubes, sauces and marinades, chutneys and many ready meals, and poisonings have occurred following the ingestion of these foodstuffs particularly where meat and/or meat-flavourings are the main constituent. Effects of allium poisoning can occur from a single large dose or smaller repeated dosing and can even result in anaemia in the cat.\nGeneral signs of poisoning from the ingestion of toxic human foods include vomiting, diarrhoea, excessive drinking, lethargy, disorientation, rapid heart rate and breathing, depression or hyperactivity, and in severe cases convulsions. If an owner knows or suspects that their cat has ingested a toxic food or drink, veterinary attention should be sought immediately. Treatment and outcome will depend on the type of poisoning and the severity of the toxicity. Fortunately severe cases in cats are rare.\nFor more information about the risks of certain human foods and what the signs of poisoning are, see: http://icatcare.org/advice/keeping-cats-safe-campaign/toxic-human-foods\nThis campaign is being run with the support of Agria Pet Insurance and the Veterinary Poisons Information Service. Full details about the campaign can be found at: http://icatcare.org/keeping-cats-safe\nChocolate, especially dark chocolate is toxic to cats",

        "raw_content": "The 1967-68 NHL season was the 51st season of the National Hockey League. Twelve teams each played 74 games. The Montreal Canadiens would win the Stanley Cup against the new St. Louis Blues.\nLeague Business Edit\nThis season saw the NHL expand from the \"Original Six\" teams by adding six new franchises. The St. Louis Blues, California Seals, Philadelphia Flyers, Minnesota North Stars, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Los Angeles Kings were all put into the Western Division. On December 8, 1967, the California Seals were renamed the Oakland Seals.[1]\nThis year also saw the addition of two new awards. With expansion came format change and with format change came a need for a new trophy for the winner of the newly formed West Division. The new trophy, called the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl, was for the winner of the West while the older trophy, the Prince of Wales, was now to be given to the winner of the East Division. Because of that, the NHL increased its regular-season schedules from 70 games per club (14 games X five opponents) to 74 games per club (50 games with teams within its own division, 24 games with teams in the opposite division).\nThe other new award was the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, which was named in honour of Bill Masterton who died on 15 January, 1968 after sustaining an injury during a game (the first time a NHL player had ever died directly as a result of an on-ice injury).\nThe minimum age of players subject to amateur draft was changed to 20.[1]\nThere were a large number of holdouts this year. Three New York Ranger players, including Rod Gilbert, Arnie Brown and Orland Kurtenbach were fined $500 by their team. However, Ed Van Impe of the Flyers refused to sign his contract, followed by Earl Ingarfield and Al MacNeil also refused to sign, then Tim Horton of Toronto, Norm Ullman of Detroitand Ken Wharram and Stan Mikita of Chicago. Led by Alan Eagleson, the new NHL Players Association was up and running.\nTraining camps Edit\nBoston Bruins: London, Ontario\nChicago Black Hawks: Chicago\nDetroit Red Wings: Detroit\nLos Angeles Kings: Guelph, Ontario\nMinnesota North Stars: Haliburton, Ontario\nMontreal Canadiens: Montreal\nNew York Rangers: Kitchener, Ontario\nOakland Seals: Port Huron, Michigan\nPhiladelphia Flyers: Quebec City\nPittsburgh Penguins: Brantford, Ontario\nSt. Louis Blues: St. Louis\nToronto Maple Leafs: Peterborough, Ontario\nOn October 11, 1967, Jean Beliveau scored his 400th career goal on goaltender Hank Bassen of the Pittsburgh Penguins.\nThe Canadiens stumbled out of the gate. In their first west coast road trip, the Seals beat them 2-1 and the Kings beat them 4-2. The Habs lost quite a few more and were in last place by December. But by January, Jean Beliveau began to score and others were inspired also. The Habs got very hot, winning 12 consecutive games and then put together 10 more wins to take the East Division lead. Paced by Gump Worsley, who had 6 shutouts and a 1.98 goals against average and backstopped the team to the fewest goals allowed in the league, managed to keep first place thereafter. Worsley, for the first time, made the first all-star team.\nOn February 24, 1968, Rogatien Vachon of Montreal was the victim of four goals by Rod Gilbert, who set an NHL record with 16 shots on goal.\nEd Giacomin again led the league with 8 shutouts, and led the Rangers to second place, bolstered by Jean Ratelle's emergence into stardom.\nBoston obtained Phil Esposito, Ken Hodge and Fred Stanfield in a blockbuster trade with Chicago. This trade, as shown over time, heavily favored the Bruins. This, coinciding with the rise of Bobby Orr, led to an improvement in Boston's play, and the Bruins led the league in scoring behind Esposito's 84 points and made the playoffs for the first time in nearly a decade. Though he missed action with a knee injury, Orr still won the Norris Trophy as the league's top defenceman.\nBy contrast, the Chicago Black Hawks fell into a tailspin, and despite the scoring heroics of Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita, were hard pressed to make the playoffs. Mediocre team defense and goaltending was the culprit.\nRoger Crozier felt the strain of goaltending and walked out on Detroit. He came back, but the Red Wings finished last anyway, despite a potent offense led by Gordie Howe, Alex Delvecchio and Norm Ullman. Even a late season trade of Ullman and Paul Henderson for Toronto star Frank Mahovlich and future Blues star Garry Unger was too little, too late. However, on March 24, 1968, Mahovlich became only the 11th player to score 300 goals as he scored both his 300th and 301st goals in a 5-3 win over the Boston Bruins.\nMeanwhile, the defending Cup champion Toronto Maple Leafs, still steady on defense in front of elder statesman Johnny Bower and backup Bruce Gamble, had numerous problems. Mahovlich spent time in hospital with a nervous breakdown, and the season was marred by contract disputes and tension with the high-strung coach, Punch Imlach. A late season charge failed to win a playoff berth.\nIn the West Division, the Philadelphia Flyers became the first regular season champion of the expansion clubs. While their offense was poor (career minor-league Leon Rochefort led the team with just 21 goals), ex-Bruins' goaltenders Bernie Parent and Doug Favell showed surprising form. Behind such hardnosed players as Gary Dornhoefer, Ed Van Impe, Larry Zeidel and Forbes Kennedy, the team showed the first glimmers of the \"Broad Street Bullies\" of future years.\nThe Los Angeles Kings were a team that writers predicted to finish last in the new West Division. [2] Owner Jack Kent Cooke had purchased the American Hockey League's Springfield Indians for $1 million to bolster the Kings roster. Surprisingly, the Kings finished second, just one point out of first. Bill Flett scored 26 goals, while Eddie Joyal scored 23 goals, adding 34 assists for 57 points and was the second leading scorer in the West Division.\nOakland, predicted to finish first, fell far short of the mark, amidst poor attendance. Defenceman Kent Douglas, a former Calder Trophy winner, played far below expected form and was traded to Detroit for Ted Hampson and defenceman Bert Marshall. The Seals finished last in the West Division.\nGlenn Hall may have been deemed too old by the Black Hawks, which left him unprotected in the expansion draft, but not for the St. Louis Blues, who rode his five shutouts to a third place finish. A surprising benefit was their leading scorer, previously unheralded Red Berenson (with only 45 points in 185 previous NHL games) who exploded into stardom, more than doubling his career total in only 55 games.\nBy contrast, the Pittsburgh Penguins finished fifth, led by former Ranger star Andy Bathgate. Behind an elderly roster -- nine of their top ten scorers and both of their goaltenders were over thirty -- they could neither muster much offense nor defense.\nThe Minnesota North Stars had their bright moments despite finishing fourth in the West Division. On December 30, 1967, Bill Masterton and Wayne Connelly each scored goals in a 5-4 upset win over the Boston Bruins. On January 10, Connelly -- who would finish the season with 35 goals to lead his team and the West Division -- had a hat trick in a 6-4 win over the West Division power, the Philadelphia Flyers and Masterton was the architect on all three goals.\nTragedy struck the league on January 14, 1968. In a game at the Metropolitan Sports Center in Bloomington, Minnesota, the Oakland Seals were in town to play the North Stars and Bill Masterton led a rush into the Oakland zone. Two defenceman, Larry Cahan and Ron Harris braced for the old fashioned sandwich check and as Masterton fired the puck into the Seals zone, the two hit Masterton hard but cleanly. Masterton flipped backwards and hit his head on the ice. He was removed to a Minneapolis hospital where doctors were prevented from doing surgery by the seriousness of the head injury. Early on the morning of January 15, 1968, Bill Masterton died. He was the first player to die as the direct result of injuries suffered in an NHL game, the only such incident in a senior game since 1907.\nMontreal Canadiens 74 42 22 10 94 236 167 700\nNew York Rangers 74 39 23 12 90 226 183 673\nBoston Bruins 74 37 27 10 84 259 216 1043\nChicago Black Hawks 74 32 26 16 80 212 222 606\nToronto Maple Leafs 74 33 31 10 76 209 176 634\nDetroit Red Wings 74 27 35 12 66 245 257 759\nPhiladelphia Flyers 74 31 32 11 73 173 179 987\nLos Angeles Kings 74 31 33 10 72 200 224 810\nSt. Louis Blues 74 27 31 16 70 177 191 792\nMinnesota North Stars 74 27 32 15 69 191 226 738\nPittsburgh Penguins 74 27 34 13 67 195 216 554\nOakland Seals [3] 74 15 42 17 47 153 219 787\nRod Gilbert New York Rangers 74 29 48 77 12\nBobby Hull Chicago Black Hawks 71 44 31 75 39\nNorm Ullman Toronto Maple Leafs 71 35 37 72 28\nAlex Delvecchio Detroit Red Wings 74 22 48 70 14\nJohn Bucyk Boston Bruins 72 30 39 69 8\nKen Wharram Chicago Black Hawks 74 27 42 69 18\nStanley Cup Finals Edit\n4 Chicago Black Hawks 1\nE1 Montreal Canadiens 4\nW3 St. Louis Blues 0\n1 Philadelphia Flyers 3\n3 St. Louis Blues 4\n4 Minnesota North Stars 3\n2 Los Angeles Kings 3\nPrince of Wales Trophy: Montreal Canadiens\nClarence S.

        "raw_content": "Looking for some inside information about web hosting payment processing from payment processing professionals? Then you are in luck. In the next several weeks, we will be sharing tons of useful immediate knowledge on providing payment services to various businesses.\nToday we will start with web hosting payment processing. But stay tuned to explore a new niche every week!\nIf you are new to this term, let\u2019s start with covering the basics.\nWeb hosting service is \u201ca type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their website accessible via the World Wide Web.\u201d For it, web hosting companies offer the business owners servers for rent or lease in their data centers.\nThere are three different types of web hosting:\nIn case of a shared server, your website shares the server with a number of other websites. The number of these websites might vary from one or two to hundreds and even thousands depending on the terms you agreed on with your provider.\nThe advantage of this type of servers is their cost. Since a lot of websites are using the same server, its price might get as low as $5/ month. As a result, this type of servers is most suitable for companies with limited budgets.\nVirtual private server (VPS).\nThe other type of a web hosting server is also known as a VPS. If you opt for a VPS, your website will share the server with other sites. However, though the physical server is just one, there are multiple virtual servers on it. The number of websites hosted on a VPS never (or barely ever) exceeds 20.\nFinally, this is considered to be the best hosting server type for big players. As you understand from the name, you have this server for yourself and don\u2019t share it with anyone else. This results in great speed and top-notch security. However, paying for it only makes sense if you are a big company that can shoulder the price.\nBut there is more to it. It\u2019s worth to mention that in recent years, merchants have been using the service side of the web hosting. As a result, webmasters have well shifted in the cloud technologies making the above-mentioned differentiation slightly outdated.\nWeb hosting is a billion-dollar business. More than a billion websites registered online each of which requires hosting to be up and running. That is why web hosting business owners are always on the lookout for cheaper yet high-quality payment solutions to process their customers\u2019 transactions.\nWhat do they need from their payment service provider? We\u2019re about to explore this!\nWhat web hosting business owners look for in a payment processing solution\nThere are several key features every web hosting business owner expects to see in a payment gateway.\nThe abundance of alternative payment methods.\nWeb hosting is global. And to meet the needs of clients from all over the world, one has to offer various alternative payment methods. That is why consider opting for a payment service provider with a wide range of payment methods.\nThe most popular ones are PayPal and Skrill payments. But don\u2019t stop just there. Analyze the geography of your customers and set up methods most suitable for them. Thus, the payment preferences of customers from Europe will differ from those living in Asia. And don\u2019t forget about e-wallets. They\u2019re gaining their momentum right now. Having them on the list of available alternative payment methods will help you stay at least a few steps ahead of your competitors.\nRecurring billing (subscription) model.\nMost webmasters offer their clients recurring billing model. Thus, a payment service provider unable to set up this payment model automatically drops out of the race.\nWhy offer recurring billing?\nSince the fee for web hosting is often billed monthly, the payment gateway should have this functionality on hand. Besides, it is important that the software automatically charges the customer every month even if he forgets to pay for it according to the agreement. This point can be a real pain in the neck for webmasters.\nAnd remember that recurring billing comes with a set of other features required for smooth subscription payment model. For instance, here at Ikajo International we also support multiple retries, smart routing, and soft declines management.\nAnd there\u2019s one more thing. We also find it essential to mention the smart recurring billing as an important feature every webmaster expects. It takes place when the transaction has already been approved but for some reason (e.g. insufficient funds) it did not go through. Then the smart recurring billing software either deducts this amount on the other day, or deducts a smaller amount.\nInteresting fact: studies have shown that most consumers have funds on their accounts on Friday nights. That is why a lot of merchants using the subscription model deduct funds from their accounts at this time.\nWeb hosting services though being a billion-dollar business are not as expensive as one might expect (unless a webmaster happens to have many clients using his dedicated servers). Therefore, merchants are looking for payment service providers that will not rip them off with their commission per transaction. A key to profitability both for a payment service provider and a webmaster lies in the long-term collaboration.\nA wide range of currencies available.\nIt is best to offer a wide range of currencies so that the webmaster receiving payments from all over the world doesn\u2019t have to pay extra cash for conversions.\nMoreover, think of local payment methods suitable for each segment of your target audience.\nA webmaster receives funds from various sources and via numerous payments methods. And it is easy to lose track of the financial situation. That is why webmasters expect the payment service provider to conduct reconciliations on a regular basis. PSPs do that to ensure that no transactions vanished in the information flow between the bank and merchant\u2019s account.\nPartial refund.\nWe know how frequent disputes can be a pain in the neck, especially in the web hosting business. Disputable matters often raise between the webmasters and customers. For this reason, we have decided to offer a partial refund feature to ease the lives of webmasters.\nIt\u2019s just as it sounds. The pricing established at the beginning of the collaboration between a webmaster and a payment service provider will not change over time. PSPs (at least reliable ones like Ikajo International) guarantee that hidden fees will not be an issue.\nThese are but a few of the key features every webmaster wants to see in his payment service provider.

        "raw_content": "Architecture \u2013 Celebrate Mies\nLudwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969) believed that architecture should express the essence of its civilization \u2013 that the same things guiding our lives should build our homes, museums and offices. His buildings speak to our hope for simplicity, shaping our lived environment, and in doing so, illuminating life itself.\nToday we celebrate this legacy. If Mies van der Rohe was alive he would be 126 years old. Along with Gropius, Le Corbusier and Oscar Niemeyer, the great German-American architect is regarded as one of the pioneering masters of modern architecture.\n\u201cLess is more\u201d and \u201cGod is in the details\u201d are aphorisms often associated to Mies.\nHe created an influential twentieth century architectural style, stated with extreme clarity and simplicity. His mature buildings made use of modern materials such as industrial steel and plate glass to define interior spaces. He strived towards an architecture with a minimal framework of structural order balanced against the implied freedom of free-flowing open space. He called his buildings \u201cskin and bones\u201d architecture. He sought a rational approach that would guide the creative process of architectural design.\nThe German Pavilion at the International Exposition in Barcelona built in 1927 is one of his most famous buildings.\nAfter meeting the american architect Phillip Johnson, who included several of his projects in MoMA\u2019s firts architecture exhibition held in 1932, Mies became an american citizen and was established professional in the US. In this period he designed one of his most famous buildings, The Farnsworth House. This project is one of the most radically minimalist houses ever designed.\nThe Twin Towers in Chicago were completed in 1951. The skyscraper was followed by other high-rises in Chicago, New York, Detroit, and Toronto, culminating in 1954 with The Seagram Building in New York, hailed as a masterpiece of skyscraper design.\nHis career came full-circle when he was invited to design the New National Gallery in Berlim.\nHe died in Chicago on August 17, 1969.\nTags: Architecture, Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, New York",

His father was an electrical engineer who graduated from the Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, and whose work led to many changes in the family's residence. Kejriwal spent most of his childhood in north Indian towns such as Sonepat, Ghaziabad and Hisar. He was educated at Campus School in Hisar and at a Christian missionary Holy Child School at Sonipat.\nHe graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology in Kharagpur, majoring in mechanical engineering. He joined Tata Steel in 1989 and was posted in Jamshedpur. Kejriwal resigned in 1992, having taken leave of absence to study for the Civil Services Examination.He spent some time in Kolkata, where he met Mother Teresa, and volunteered with The Missionaries of Charity and at the Ramakrishna Mission in North-East India and at Nehru Yuva Kendra.\nIn 1995, Arvind married Sunita, a 1993-batch IRS officer. She took voluntary retirement in 2016 as Commissioner of Income Tax in the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal.\nThe couple has two children.

He was in charge of Delhi's home, power, planning, finance, services and vigilance ministries.\nOn 14 February 2014 he resigned as Chief Minister after failing to table the Jan Lokpal Bill in the Delhi Assembly. He recommended the dissolution of the Assembly. Kejriwal blamed the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party for stalling the anti-corruption legislation and linked it with the government's decision to register a First Information Report (FIR) against industrialist Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries. In April 2014 he said that he had made a mistake by resigning without publicly explaining the rationale behind his decision.\n2004: Ashoka Fellow, Civic Engagement\n2005: Satyendra K.

My two main concerns were working spaces outside and getting the garden planted. Actually I\u2019d hoped to get the plants in before this weekend, but for one reason or another it didn\u2019t work out that way. I can only assume that there is a reason I know nothing about.\nThis should be lovely on breezy, but not windy days. Of course, it\u2019s always windy up here, but some days are worse than others and yesterday tested the umbrella stands to the utmost. Still, this will probably be the primary spot for the summer as my loom fits nicely near the table, but not in the travel path.\nThis is where I sat yesterday when I finally got cleaned up and pulled out my knitting. It\u2019s certainly a bonus that our neighbor has a beautifully landscaped yard and doesn\u2019t mind sharing her view. The lush green plants to the right are horseradish plants and they share a bed with milkweed and raspberry canes. There is a row of marigolds in front of the stone wall just waiting to be harvested for dyeing. This year I will do it all summer long and dry the heads as I remove them. Then I will have plenty come fall dyeing time.\nAnd this is for late afternoon and evenings\u2026or chilly mornings. It\u2019s on the east side of the house and is screened from the road by a monster morning glory on the arbor. A nice, quiet place to settle for some peace and quiet after work and before dinner. Now I have my choice of places to sit tomorrow and remember some of the people who have passed from my physical life, but are still with me in so many ways. I hope that your Memorial Day will bring some happiness, peace, and good memories home to you.\nPosted in Gardening, General, Harvesting, Holidays, Knitting, Plants | Tags: dyeing, Fiber Arts, Garden, happiness, Home, Knitting, Loom, Memorial Day, memories, outdoor seating, Spinning, summer, weaving, Wool, Yarn\n\u00ab Damp shows and garden work\nThe week of scattered projects \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Featured Resources \u00bb Selling the Dream\nMay 11, 2017 Kylie Peavoy\nOriginally published in Exhibition News\nEveryone knows the old clich\u00e9s about event sales. \u2018It\u2019s all about face to face\u2019. \u2018People buy people\u2019.\nIn fact, it\u2019s almost as much of a clich\u00e9 to point out that these sayings are so prevalent because they\u2019re true.\nOne thing that isn\u2019t lauded enough in our industry, though, is our ability to help imagine, create and execute a grand, smooth-running event alongside our clients. So much of what we do is about selling an intangible product: an experience that hasn\u2019t yet happened, but that our clients can visualise when they close their eyes in the weeks, months and even years before the event takes place.\nI like to call this \u2018selling the dream\u2019. An event salesperson\u2019s success hinges on their ability to forge a partnership with the client, and to weave an event story that gives the client confidence in what is being sold.\nSo how do we do this? I\u2019ll try to explain without dipping into clich\u00e9s.\nI really believe in being genuine. I want my clients to buy into me before they buy into anything else that I\u2019m offering. It\u2019s not about being a stereotype of a salesperson \u2013 not listening, forcing a product down clients\u2019 throats. Instead, you have to talk to somebody on a level that shows that you understand where they\u2019re coming from and what they are looking to achieve.\nIt\u2019s undoubtedly a different type of sales than any other industry. The first thing you should do is build a relationship with someone, a rapport. How can you give a client confidence in you and your team\u2019s ability if they can\u2019t even have a decent conversation with you?\nBecause we aren\u2019t selling a tangible product, a salesperson\u2019s ability to connect with their clients becomes the most important tool in their belt. Wouldn\u2019t it be easier to sell a product that clients could touch and feel during the pitch? Yes, of course \u2013 but it\u2019s definitely more exciting to feel a genuine emotional connection with our clients and watch the event of their dreams come to life!\nThat\u2019s also why it\u2019s good to have experience in a lot of areas of the events industry. A lot of people in the industry move around and have worked on all sides of the fence. If you\u2019ve worked for companies up and down the event chain, there is no limit to who you can connect with. It gives you a really well-rounded view; it\u2019s great to have walked in their shoes so that you understand what they\u2019re trying to achieve.\nYou can travel around the world with events \u2013 having been lucky enough to do so myself \u2013 and though cultural differences can be difficult to navigate, one thing never changes: clients respond to authenticity.\nBeware \u2018eventspeak\u2019\nNow that I\u2019ve said how important it is to know the industry back to front, I\u2019m going to make a slight contradiction. Avoid talking in \u2018eventspeak\u2019: the technical language of AV, data capture and stand builds that comes off as too insider-y and will only elicit blank stares from clients who are dipping their toes into the events world for the first time.\nI\u2019ve got a friend who recently set up a business and she was talking to me about exhibiting for the first time and not knowing where to begin. When you\u2019ve worked in the industry for so many years, you forget that actually just mentioning \u2018event intelligence\u2019 can be a non-starter, because people who haven\u2019t exhibited before don\u2019t know what that means!\nEvent intelligence is fantastic \u2013 GES\u2019 Visit Connect offers tangibles like lead capture and measurement, giving clients more insight and understanding into their event. But when we talk about it, it should be in aid of the foundational partnership that has already been built between salesperson and client.\nWhen you\u2019re selling an experience happening in the future, so much of it depends on your ability to listen and then respond accordingly. By relating to someone and being more personable, you might stand out from your competitors. Most of the big shows that I work on are based on relationships that I have right from the beginning, and them buying into that trust in me.\nUnderstand the industry that your client is in, and tailor solutions that will help them achieve their dream.\nIt\u2019s not just about me, the salesperson; it\u2019s the team behind me, the team that\u2019s going to be a strategic partner with my client going forward. Most people working on events spend more time with their various teams than they do with their families! Events are full on, and everybody knows that. So if clients don\u2019t trust you, or believe that your team can execute their vision, then you are dead in the water.\nUltimately, as a salesperson, I come in during the early stages of my clients\u2019 event dreams, and it is my job to show them how the team behind me can help make those dreams a reality. And that is all about trust in me as a person. I can provide testimonials and references, but up until the moment that we actually successfully deliver a fabulous event experience, all my client can rely on is that they genuinely believe in me, and what I\u2019ve sold to them.\nThat calls for a lot of empathy and emotional intelligence \u2013 something I\u2019ve alluded to already. It may sound romantic, but we\u2019re selling a dream to our clients, and the only way that that will be successful is if you create an authentic partnership on a person to person level. That\u2019s not a clich\u00e9 \u2013 it\u2019s just the truth.\n7 Mind-Blowing Event Venues You Need to See\nEvent venues are springing up all over to offer an alternative experience for you, your visitors, your spea...\n9 Tactics to Implement at Your Next Conference or Trade Show\nAre you preparing for an upcoming product showcase, trade show or marketing event?

        "raw_content": "THE PRINCETON APPROACH\nAlan S. Blinder is an economist/professor of economics and public affairs at Princeton University; he has some worries. \u201cRight now, I\u2019m worried about the damage that might be done by one particularly wrong-headed idea: the notion that, in stark contrast to Keynes\u2019s teaching, government spending destroys jobs,\u201d he goes on to quote John Boehner\u2019s regular rail against \u201cjob-killing government spending.\u201d\nMr. Blinder goes on with an eighth grade level explanation, \u201cThe claim is that employment actually declines when federal spending rises. Using the same illogic, employment should soar if we made massive cuts in public spending-as some are advocating right now.\u201d He emphasis his perspective by adding a question: \u201cHow, exactly, could more government spending \u201ckill jobs\u201d?\nThis would be the perfect place to inject the Obama administration\u2019s prediction that spending billions in stimulus will result in holding the unemployment number to 8%. In other words, using Mr. Blinder\u2019s logic, Obama\u2019s Keynesian adaptation to stimulate the economy, employment should soar if billions of taxpayer monies were deployed into the economy. Well, unemployment is at a low of 9.1%; the number could be 15%. Is this NOT evidence that government spending does not significantly abate unemployment?\nTo Mr. Blinder\u2019s credit he does concede the reality of \u201cdumb public spending,\u201d he continues to declare that such spending deserves rejection. But ends with the conviction that such spending does not kill jobs; I assume he does concede that spending taxpayer monies on dumb stuff does negatively effect the federal deficit. In the interest of fairness he does point out that conservatives view the government as \u201ctoo big\u201d which, in the conservative mind, leads to a predisposition against spending. The very next one word sentence is \u201cOk.\u201d He then continues with a question. \u201cHow can the government destroy jobs by either hiring people directly or buying things from private companies?\u201d The example given is, \u201cHow is it that the public purchase of computers destroys jobs and the private purchase increases jobs?\u201d\nHmm\u2026this guy teaches at Princeton. Well, Mr. Blinder when the government purchases computers they are not concerned about matching the cost against their profits or investment of capital. Instead they need only match the cost against their budget. (Noting that government\u2019s budget, for the most part, only increases year-to-year mostly because the preceding year\u2019s budget sets the dollar standard for the upcoming year\u2019s budget.) Indeed the process of government procurement is diametrically different form the procurement required of private enterprise. If private enterprise over spends there is an obvious penalty. If government over spends they print more money, increase taxes and fees, or borrow from the future. Therefore, when the government purchases computers the only fact of measurable consequence is that taxpayer funds are being spent. As to the proper allocation of those funds, the only real measurement is in the effectiveness of government services rendered. Clearly and unequivocally, private enterprise spends its own capital at its own risk and the sum of that process is that more computers mean more computer users.\nThe insistence of the Princeton professor is that government spending will not negatively affect unemployment and certainly, drastic expenditure cuts (as proffered by the Republicans) would imperil this shaky economy that, admittedly, still isn\u2019t generating enough jobs. So I assume the point the professor is making: Government cash infusion into the economy is a good thing. While the Republicans are pressing forward the idea that such cash infusion is wasteful and at a minimum will not increase employment and at a maximum will cost the private sector employment.\nGreece is enflamed. Rioting in the streets; Greeks beating on Greeks, destroying private and public property; its citizens are overtly breaking the law. The reason for this madness\u2026 Citizens young and the old believe that their government betrayed them.\nMany years ago, the government of Greece said to its citizens: trust in unions, submit to the socialistic system, trade your individual freedom/liberty in favor of the collective; and the government guarantees your life\u2019s blessings. This trade-off does sound a bit feudalistic. In trade for the protection offered by the Lord the serf submits his life, family, and services rendered to the state. Naturally, the Lord promises to lower his drawbridge when hostiles threaten.\nAs far as I am concerned issues that are relevant and relative to this nation\u2019s economic system and culture, in the first cause, has more to do with individual liberty, societal freedom, and the measure of such when compared to the degree of government coerciveness. Every citizen must understand that funding government is enabling government. To enable government is to oblige and submit to the power of government intrusion.\nWe Americans sold our capitalistic soul many years ago; however, we retained the spirit. We traded in our liberty and freedom for the promises inherent in shiny-objects and pretty words, the power of promises and pretence captured our sagacious sense. Now we have a tax system no one understands but everyone must comply. We cannot cure our addiction to consumption. We are presently having a very tough time saving ourselves from ourselves. We have allowed and willingly permitted attorneys and \u2018the process\u2019 to do all the thinking for us. Professor Blinder is convinced that a grouping of selected economist could cure our economic ills. He believes, indeed he trusts in the moral integrity of the state to manage the taxpayers\u2019 monies in the interest of the taxpayer; a foolish understanding of government\u2019s operational scope. He thinks that government knows best\u2026and I don\u2019t think that government knows least.\nEDUCATION \u2013 A SACROSANCT\nIn my last blog I stated that there were certain words and phrases that evoke the elected, as well as, the electorate, to disregard customary askance and prudence in favor of submissive acceptance. The effect of such disregards for vigorous scrutiny is not effectually moot, regretfully; the act of willful disregard of standard due diligence enables the opportunity for disastrous outcomes.\nSupplemented directly by the apparatuses of government, the elected, as if enchanted (by those certain words and phrases) while faithfully gazing at butterflies and rainbows, (instead of insisting on scrutiny) act in a manner explicit, implicit, and premeditated, cheered on by a beguiled constituency as they implement the process of distorted allocation resulting in the wasteful depletion of taxpayer resources.\nOf all the government programs and there are literally thousands competing for the most wastefully egregious; public education, from kindergarten to college, is definitely at the top of my list. I cannot think of another one word descriptive (education) whose presupposed meaningfulness is so contrary to expectation or a so distorted by the realities of implementation. The concept of education is, in practice, beguiling and wanting.\nEducation is in word and concept a theme of multi-billion dollar consequences. The taxpayer funding of education financially supports all-manner of miscellaneous. Inclusive of intrinsically establishing Byzantine organizational edifices, structures of brick & cement soon follow to dominate costs whose budgets are only exceeded by the expenditure of time and maintenance. Taxpayers\u2019 cash underwrites the very teachers\u2019 unions that create an administrative bureaucracy that mimics the largeness of our governments. Citizens cede, to a significant measure, the explicit core contextual of what\u2019s being taught. The ideological slant, as well as, the particular subjects taught (there maybe variants of degree on a sector-by-sector basis) is the providence of union membership and the willy-nilly discretion of governments.\nEducation is the beloved, at-the-ready for endorsement of every politician. Education is the singular purposefulness of state lotteries, casinos, and gamming of numerous descriptive. In other words, if it is for the children\u2019s education then it\u2019s morally and prudently sane for the state to take the people\u2019s money in a game designed so they cannot win. This is the perfect sin tax. The interesting contrivance is that when the state gaming monopoly market and advertise for players the supposition is that this marketing incentive to gamble is not an inducement (for the citizen) to put the money into the slot machine instead of paying the rent or buying food for one\u2019s children. The politicians, teachers, bureaucrats, and state employees have convinced themselves that the inducement to gamble is morally grounded\u2026an amazing deduction. Nevertheless, for a private company gambling warrants a criminal indictment; for the state gambling is a morally sanctioned monopoly.\nNow clearly, we adults all know that gambling is an insidious game. I certainly believe that any willing adult has the right to partake but I do not believe, even if the cause is to fund education, that governments\u2019 should sanction the role of lotto bosses. The elected know better, constituents understand the negative probabilities; nevertheless, in the interest of servicing education, the process of spinning into the metaphorical is a real behavioral continuum. By means extraordinarily counter-intuitive the ordinary gauntlet of prudent discovery is circumvented; for cause unknown the deductive process of analysis is abandoned. The words \u201cfor education\u201d disarm the skeptical and replace askance with innocent nativity.\nThe acceptance is that a liberal college education is an all-around positive. There is a popular believe amongst those who know much more than others that there is a definitive connection between intellect and virtue. Indeed these very same believers also suppose that intellect influences virtue and vice versa. As a natural extension of this deductive, the precursor to the attainment of intellect is education; thus, education is the funnel to virtue. In essence, a fundamental belief of those that knowingly know much more than the common is that education begets intellect, and intellect begets virtue. In essence the believers\u2019 believe that a liberal college education will transform the normative behavioral dysfunctions of humankind into the sublime of functional enlightenment.\nThe contention is, by those who know much more than others, that education is not given the wherewithal it deserves. The querulous complaint by those who know most is founded on the-if-only the ill-educated and the under-educated could just surrender to the dictates of the superbly educated. If they would render sensible obedience and of course financial support, education would blossom and upon such blossoming, in short order, a sense of true value will prevail over the land. Acts of the amoral and immoral will diminish; countenance subdues the xenophobic, greed converts to charity and the motivation to covet another\u2019s property dies do to a lack of ignorance.\nThey who know much more than others therefore conclude that education is the linchpin of a just culture. But beyond the acceptance of education as essential and critical, the implication of such a belief must deduce that a superbly educated intellectual is more virtuous than the simple, uneducated, common man. A man of skillful application, a person of talent, a cook, a baker, a candlestick maker could not be as intellectual thus as virtuous as those who are most learned. Interestingly, the logical sequencer of such a belief must conclude that the higher the professional station of an individual the more intellectual and virtuous the individual. Hmm\u2026Such could not be the intent of the most erudite? Unless, the business of education is nothing more than a taxpayer supported industry managed by the Wizard of Oz.\nAlthough sobriety has many intrinsic values, one of which being clarity of cognizance, when the subject is the present status of US governing and governess, alert awareness does have its negatives. For example, consider the diverse problems that face this nation state of ours: Three wars, two of which have lasted nearly a score of years. Interestingly, the preeminent analysis (by the best military minds) is that meaningful withdrawal from one of these wars will not occur until 2014 and withdrawal is subject to that nebulous dictum, \u201cdepending on the situation on the ground.\u201d The issues and concerns of our nation are numerous: Immigration, ObamaCare, raising the debt ceiling, entitlements, the seemingly never reversing high unemployment, securing the border. Obviously, without neglecting those peoples that blatantly just want to kill Americans, I could go on and on\u2026 but I think my point has been made. The price one might pay for soberness could lead to frustration at a minimum, even depression. So to those that believe I am drinking too much vodka these days I say firstly that the vodka is Belvedere and secondly Newt Gingrich\u2019s most recent behavior is that of a sober man. Oh and so was that Wiener fellow\u2026 he was sober when he initiated, over many years, such extraordinarily stupid behavior we are now so overly familiar with.\nLogic dictates that once a problem is realized one must find and implement a solution. This is the rational of western thought. So in order to solve the problems defined in the latter paragraph I need to find a perpetrator, a rat, a dirty no good to harness the blame. After that, if I was a progressive or a social worker, I could spend some time empathizing with the rat\u2019s issue, finding the rat, the appropriate taxpayer funded therapy, and finally blaming Bush for creating the policies that drove this individual to act out such heinous anti-social behavior. But since I am not a progressive I can, without hesitation or concerns over the violation of civil rights, move into direct prosecutorial mode. So I charge the blame onto political ideologies that are purposefully manifested into the potent delivery systems known as the Democratic and Republican parties. These political parties have willfully, in the interest of power, prestige, greed, and let\u2019s not set aside the overwhelming power of stupid, perverted the constitution of 1789 solely for the perceived benefit of their party.\nWell, I have enjoyed the swallow of several vodkas. I can now read the comings and goings of the political sway that lies within the opinion section of the Wall Street Journal. I might even tolerate an English interpretative analysis of American wherewithal enclosed within the Economist. But most importantly, my Belvedere has dulled my sensitivity to the reality of what\u2019s happening. I still have a tough time tolerating what is tolerated by so many. On the other hand, them, the others, and those out there in the great Hinterland, despite the efforts of forces counter to my interest, I am still putting one foot in front of the other\u2026.\nClearly, the default position to not winning the presidency is to dominate the senate\u2026 we must stop the liberal progressivism of President Obama. There is no Plan B.\nletter from a WASHINGTON POST staffer\nI write today about the ever increasing pressure to begin withdrawing troops from Afghanistan. A vote last week drove home the point that this is becoming more and more of a contentious issue. In a bill that was expected to fail by a longshot, the vote actually came to a close failure vote of 215-204, with 26 Republicans joining in the effort with all but eight of the Democrats. This was a significant step for the Democrats to step out against the President in opposition to his public stance. This bill essentially called for the Obama Administration to establish a plan this summer to accelerate the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan and to pursue a negotiated settlement with \u201call interested parties\u201d.\nThis is a substantial shift as just one year ago Congressman McGovern suffered a much greater defeat with 98 Democrats going against a similar piece of legislation. After the heightened coverage surrounding Bin Laden\u2019s death, Americans are more aware that as Congressman Hoyer observed, \u201cMany of the terrorists against whom we are fighting are no longer located in Afghanistan but are in disparate locations, from Yemen to Somalia to Southeast Asia.\u201d This is one factual point that has provided a basis for the sentiment that the U.S. troop\u2019s ongoing mission in Afghanistan is in part a futile waste of U.S. time and resources.\nAlthough the situation in Afghanistan is complicated and may be hard for those without military experience much less inside intelligence information to fully understand or appreciate, there are a few basic observations that can be made. First, there multiple obstacles preventing the U.S. from making progress as intended. Second, Obama has failed to present a clear strategy that people, even those within his own party, can unify behind. For any issue in politics, messaging is always key to rallying support. The problem is that the Administration has not determined a clear exit strategy and therefore, they are unable to communicate a vision of a withdrawal method to the taxpayers who are funding these efforts. It is natural for Americans to grow anxious about an exit strategy when it is clear our troops are not making significant progress in regards to the stated purposes of the mission, namely \u201cnation building\u201d. The white elephant in the room is the fact that the U.S. Government is conceivably not revealing the true purpose for remaining in Afghanistan. This of course is the geographic proximity to a growing threat to the U.S., Pakistan. This is a country in which the core leadership of al-Qaeda is now located in addition to their develop nuclear weapons. The U.S. would not want to vocalize this purpose as it would further strain the delicate relationship between the U.S. and Pakistan. However, there is logic in positioning ourselves in the region in a way that prevents the terrorist groups from growing in size and power. Since this purpose is still only hypothetical, I will just address the current challenges the U.S. faces in Afghanistan which are delaying an immediate exit.\nFist, the U.S. has stated that our troops would be withdrawn when Afghanistan has a permanently stable and well-resourced government. After the fall of the Taliban in 2001, the Bush Administration made the decision to try to rebuild a relatively strong central government and to assist Afghanistan\u2019s economy. Even at the January 28, 2010 \u201cLondon Conference\u201d and the July 20, 2010 \u201cKabul Conference\u201d, two international conferences on Afghanistan, the focus was still on expanding and reforming the Afghan convernance.The problem with using this measurement as a prerequisite to exiting, is the fact that Afghanistan may never meet this objective. Current President Hamid Karzai\u2019s failure to forcefully confront corruption within the government has caused a great loss of support by the people. The rife corruption has caused the Afghan citizens to even resent the Karzai government; completely undermining any faith they may have held that America could be trusted in their strategy of rebuilding stable governance. The two more recent corruption stories were that involving the Kabul Bank, and the U.S. sanctions imposed on the money trading firm New Ansari Money Exchange on February 18, 2011. In response to this, the Obama Administration and Congress have begun strategically urging Kazai to publicly confront government corruption. Karzai has in turn resisted these efforts and has become more suspicious of the U.S. motivations.\nSecondly, there are several factions of conflicting governance currently controlling this country in various regions and capacities. Amidst the more organized, legitimate bodies, there are also individual \u201cwarlords\u201d, local strongmen who wield personal militias and functionally destabilize the progress between the U.S. and Afghan officials. In newly released Defense Department reports in May 2011, they recognized the fact that our security efforts are being challenged by multiple armed groups. Until the U.S.-led offensives launched in 2009, the Karzai government was estimated to control about 30% of the country, insurgent\u2019s controlled 4% officially and were considered to heavily influence or operate in another 30%, and finally local tribes and groups controlled the remainder. As of 2009, the Taliban had named shadow governors in 33 of 34 Afghan provinces. It is incredibly difficult for the U.S. to make progress when the citizens have such varied and divided loyalties to difference governing bodies. Certain regions continue to be potential safe havens for al-Qaeda forces, and therefore General Patraeus has stated the U.S. will not leave these areas. These threatening areas include Kandahar and Helman in the South and Kunar and Paktika in the East, along the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. However, he U.S. has stated it would hand-over security responsibilities to Afghan Security Forces for seven areas of the country in July, even though there is no apparent solidified Security Force to hand off the baton to. The U.S. has failed to strengthen a central governing body that the citizens could coalesce behind. Unless a strategy to accomplish this is formed, the U.S. progress will continue at a sluggish pace at best.\nThirdly, there is the instability that is created by way of their drug creation and distribution, an issue that gets little media coverage. However, some consider the narcotics trafficking to be a core impediment to the U.S. missions. The trafficking of narcotics undermines the rule of law and provides large sums of money to the insurgency, which often times goes untraced. The Taliban makes between $70-$100 million per year off the trafficking of poppy or opium. As the Obama Administration has focused on developing and promoting alternative agricultural crops, the Afghans have turned away from the U.S. and instead to the Taliban for protection of their ability to earn income in what is one of the top industries for Afghans. This counter-narcotics approach has severely back-fired on the U.S. and given the Taliban more control among the locals.\nThe stated U.S. policy thus far has been to ensure that Afghanistan will not again become a base for terrorist attacks against the United States. The Obama Administration has asserted that it is pursuing a well-resourced and integrated military civilian strategy intended to pave the way for a gradual transition to Afghan leadership that is to be completed by 2014. To support this mission, an additional 51,000 U.S. forces were authorized in 2009 reviews to increase U.S. troop levels to 99,000. However, Obama has also said we intended to have a relationship with Afghanistan that will include military involvement long after 2014, an indication that the administration sees no foreseeable end to our presence.\nAmidst the tension over this issue, is the continual increase in Government funding for expanded efforts. The House Appropriations Defense subcommittee just released their Pentagon budget bill for FY 2012 which contained $119 billion for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The U.S. government continues to spend a substantial portion of our defense budget in a country where there is a lack of clear vision for efforts moving forward. It is now time for the Administration to communicate their intentions to the American people, in a way that is nonthreatening to our security. At some point we will have to determine whether it is worth the billions of dollars and other resources spent to remain in a region when we continue to take one step forward, two steps back.\nOnce upon a time, long, long, ago\u2026 I believed that there were those predestined by means inherent to their academic achievements and specific experience to know material matters such as the strategic right from the wrong when the nation is in a crisis. These very same individuals, committees, or derivatives of governmental institutions (state department, CIA, other councils of the heretofore respected) would intrinsically know the better from the worse. I thought that these few, those that knew more than the many, were different than the common and that their educational differing sublimely inclined them to be leaders.\nTheir ideas and concepts have been published in the most prestigious of magazines and newspapers. They have served as advisors to presidents, prime ministers, and the like; I was persuaded by such and interpreted the fact of publication as evidence of worthiness. I surmised that these are the ones that know the most, that these are the wizards of Main as well as Wall Street. I truly thought that they were the cognizant, the all knowing. After all, these few had distinctive titles; titles that by simple pronunciation automated respect. They lived in eloquent houses, were members of private clubs, and drove fancy cars. Because they graduated from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or the similar I thought they had to have knowledge; and I thought that because they had knowledge they could apply such in a superior style.\nWell, I was stone cold wrong. Implementation of concepts, ideas, plans, or design is not necessarily the sequential result of academic achievement.\nA significant portion of our congressional representatives are attorneys. These persons, for the most part, marched up the system of public employment and learned the trade of politics. They learned to say one thing and do another. They learned that the most important item of attention is the symbiosis of raising money and winning reelection. They also learned how to game the system to service their best interest.\nImagine: These elected officials, the appointed, and their non-elected staff (these graduates of Harvard, these attorneys, these academic achievers) have enabled and created a perverse process that has enhanced entitlements to the point of bankruptcy. These incompetents, these unprincipled ignoramuses have devised and developed a scheme that is robbing the average doer in America of their financial surety.\nSo now these very same are debating the \u2018how\u2019 part of raising the national debt, knowing that these esteemed (mostly) democratic members of congress were more about a wink and a nod than prudently addressing the debt limit. Actually, Democrats are mostly interested in raising taxes. The conservative solution of cutting spending was really never a consideration for the Obama segment of congress.\nI am forced by evidence provided to once again acknowledge that government is by its very nature corrupt. Incompetence is a statutorily compliant form of governmental corruption. Of course so is distorting the truthfulness of an issue for the sole purpose of winning an election. But even through this counter-to-sensibility behavioral transgressions are detrimental to the nation\u2019s interest, they are accepted as part of the political norm.\nInterestingly, it is the legislative and judicial process that is near impossible to beat. The elected have secured a solid lead on us citizens. If conservatives do not win majority in the Senate and Obama wins the next election, progressives will have won an overwhelming victory.\nI believe the republican presidential nominee must run on creating the governmental ambiance for employment, restoring fiscal discipline, and a strong dollar, pulling the majority of our troops out of the present war zones, returning educational responsibilities to the states, and redressing our federal health and social services safety net.\nCertainly, we all must understand by now that attorneys and graduates of Harvard and Yale have not done their jobs\u2026",

That could be because it was the pinnacle of performance when I was growing up, but I also love it because it's so analog compared to today's hypercars. And its naturally-aspirated V12 sings an angry song right up to the redline.\nIf you compare the BMW V12 to the twin-turbocharged hybrid V8 in its successor, the McLaren P1, it's a much more pure auditory experience. No whistling of turbines, no whine of electric motors. Just internal combustion.\nWhat It&apos;s Like To Drive A McLaren P1 At The Limit\nWhat would it look like if you had 903 horsepower, active aero, and an open airfield in front of\u2026\nSure, this is the racing version of the venerable Macca, but that doesn't make the tune any less sweet.

Management and representatives of Johnson & Johnson and its subsidiaries (the Company) also may from time to time make forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and reflect management\u2019s assumptions, views, plans, objectives and projections about the future. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as \u201cplans,\u201d \u201cexpects,\u201d \u201cwill,\u201d \u201canticipates,\u201d \u201cestimates,\u201d and other words of similar meaning in conjunction with, among other things: discussions of future operations, expected operating results, financial performance; impact of planned acquisitions and dispositions; impact and timing of restructuring initiatives including associated cost savings and other benefits; the Company's strategy for growth; product development activities; regulatory approvals; market position and expenditures.\nBecause forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding future events, they are subject to uncertainties, risks and changes that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company's control. Investors should realize that if underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, or known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, the Company\u2019s actual results and financial condition could vary materially from expectations and projections expressed or implied in its forward-looking statements. Investors are therefore cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:\nRisks Related to Product Development, Market Success and Competition\nChallenges and uncertainties inherent in innovation and development of new and improved products and technologies on which the Company\u2019s continued growth and success depend, including uncertainty of clinical outcomes, additional analysis of existing clinical data, obtaining regulatory approvals, health plan coverage and customer access, and initial and continued commercial success;\nChallenges to the Company\u2019s ability to obtain and protect adequate patent and other intellectual property rights for new and existing products and technologies in the United States and other important markets;\nThe impact of patent expirations, typically followed by the introduction of competing biosimilars and generics and resulting revenue and market share losses;\nIncreasingly aggressive and frequent challenges to the Company\u2019s patents by competitors and others seeking to launch competing generic, biosimilar or other products and increased receptivity of courts, the United States Patent and Trademark Office and other decision makers to such challenges, potentially resulting in loss of market exclusivity and rapid decline in sales for the relevant product sooner than expected;\nCompetition in research and development of new and improved products, processes and technologies, which can result in product and process obsolescence;\nCompetition to reach agreement with third parties for collaboration, licensing, development and marketing agreements for products and technologies;\nCompetition based on cost-effectiveness, product performance, technological advances and patents attained by competitors; and\nAllegations that the Company\u2019s products infringe the patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties, which could adversely affect the Company\u2019s ability to sell the products in question and require the payment of money damages and future royalties.\nRisks Related to Product Liability, Litigation and Regulatory Activity\nProduct efficacy or safety concerns, whether or not based on scientific evidence, potentially resulting in product withdrawals, recalls, regulatory action on the part of the United States Food and Drug Administration (or international counterparts), declining sales and reputational damage;\nImpact, including declining sales and reputational damage, of significant litigation or government action adverse to the Company, including product liability claims and allegations related to pharmaceutical marketing practices and contracting strategies;\nIncreased scrutiny of the health care industry by government agencies and state attorneys general resulting in investigations and prosecutions, which carry the risk of significant civil and criminal penalties, including, but not limited to, debarment from government business;\nFailure to meet compliance obligations in the McNEIL-PPC, Inc.

Disruptions associated with the recently announced global supply chain actions may adversely affect supply and sourcing of materials used in the Company's products.\nInvestors also should carefully read the Risk Factors described in Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause the Company\u2019s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in its forward-looking statements. Investors should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and should not consider the risks described above to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.

The unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented.\nASU 2017-12: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities\nThe Company elected to early adopt this standard as of the beginning of the fiscal second quarter of 2018. This update makes more financial and nonfinancial hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. For additional required disclosures see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.\nASU 2014-09: Revenue from Contracts with Customers\nOn January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (new revenue standard) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method. The cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard was recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of the new revenue standard has not had a material impact to either reported Sales to customers or Net earnings. Additionally, the Company will continue to recognize revenue from product sales as goods are shipped or delivered to the customer, as control of goods transfers at the same time.\nIn accordance with the new standard requirements, the disclosure of the impact of adoption on the Company's Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Balance Sheet was as follows:\nStatement of Earnings - For the fiscal nine months ended September 30, 2018\nBalance without adoption of ASC 606\nStatement of Earnings - For the fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2018\nBalance Sheet - As of September 30, 2018\nThe Company made a cumulative effect adjustment to the 2018 opening balance of retained earnings upon adoption of ASU 2014-09, which decreased beginning retained earnings by $47 million.\nAs part of the adoption of ASC 606 see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further disaggregation of revenue.\nThe Company recognizes revenue from product sales when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the goods to customers. The Company's global payment terms are typically between 30 to 90 days. Provisions for certain rebates, sales incentives, trade promotions, coupons, product returns and discounts to customers are accounted as variable consideration and recorded as a reduction in sales.\nProduct discounts granted are based on the terms of arrangements with direct, indirect and other market participants, as well as market conditions, including prices charged by competitors. Rebates are estimated based on contractual terms, historical experience, patient outcomes, trend analysis and projected market conditions in the various markets served. The Company evaluates market conditions for products or groups of products primarily through the analysis of wholesaler and other third-party sell-through and market research data, as well as internally generated information.\nSales returns are estimated and recorded based on historical sales and returns information. Products that exhibit unusual sales or return patterns due to dating, competition or other marketing matters are specifically investigated and analyzed as part of the accounting for sales return accruals.\nSales returns allowances represent a reserve for products that may be returned due to expiration, destruction in the field, or in specific areas, product recall. The sales returns reserve is based on historical return trends by product and by market as a percent to gross sales. In accordance with the Company\u2019s accounting policies, the Company generally issues credit to customers for returned goods. The Company\u2019s sales returns reserves are accounted for in accordance with the U.S. GAAP guidance for revenue recognition when right of return exists. Sales returns reserves are recorded at full sales value. Sales returns in the Consumer and Pharmaceutical segments are almost exclusively not resalable. Sales returns for certain franchises in the Medical Devices segment are typically resalable but are not material. The Company infrequently exchanges products from inventory for returned products. The sales returns reserve for the total Company has been approximately 1.0% of annual net trade sales during the fiscal reporting years 2017, 2016 and 2015.\nPromotional programs, such as product listing allowances and cooperative advertising arrangements, are recorded in the same period as related sales. Continuing promotional programs include coupons and volume-based sales incentive programs. The redemption cost of consumer coupons is based on historical redemption experience by product and value. Volume-based incentive programs are based on the estimated sales volumes for the incentive period and are recorded as products are sold. These arrangements are evaluated to determine the appropriate amounts to be deferred or recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company also earns service revenue for co-promotion of certain products, which is included in sales to customers.\nASU 2016-01: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities\nThe Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of the fiscal year 2018 on a modified retrospective basis. The amendments in this update supersede the guidance to classify equity securities with readily determinable fair values into different categories (that is, trading or available-for-sale) and require equity securities to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net earnings. The standard amends financial reporting by providing relevant information about an entity\u2019s equity investments and reducing the number of items that are recognized in other comprehensive income.\nThe Company made a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings upon adoption of ASU 2016-01 that increased retained earnings by $232 million net of tax and decreased accumulated other comprehensive income for previously unrealized gains from equity investments. For additional details see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.\nASU 2016-16: Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory\nThe Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of the fiscal year 2018. This update removes the current exception in U.S. GAAP prohibiting entities from recognizing current and deferred income tax expenses or benefits related to transfer of assets, other than inventory, within the consolidated entity. The current exception to defer the recognition of any tax impact on the transfer of inventory within the consolidated entity until it is sold to a third party remains unaffected. The Company recorded net adjustments to deferred taxes of approximately $2.0 billion, a decrease to Other Assets of approximately $0.7 billion and an increase to retained earnings of approximately $1.3 billion. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.\nASU 2017-01: Clarifying the Definition of a Business\nThe Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of the fiscal year 2018. This update narrows the definition of a business by providing a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen specifies that an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired or disposed of is concentrated in a single or a group of similar identifiable assets. This update was applied prospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.\nASU 2017-07: Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost\nThe Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of the fiscal year 2018. This update requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic benefit cost (NPBC). In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization. The amendments in this update are required to be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of NPBC in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and prospectively, on and after the adoption date, for the capitalization of the service cost component of NPBC in assets. As required by the transition provisions of this update, the Company made the following reclassifications to the 2017 fiscal third quarter and fiscal nine months Consolidated Statement of Earnings to retroactively apply classification of the service cost component and the other components of NPBC:\nIncrease (Decrease) to Net Expense\nFiscal Third Quarter Ended\nThe following table summarizes the cumulative effect adjustments made to the 2018 opening balance of retained earnings upon adoption of the new accounting standards mentioned above:\nCumulative Effect Adjustment Increase (Decrease) to Retained Earnings\nASU 2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers\nASU 2016-01 - Financial Instruments\nASU 2016-16 - Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers\nNot Adopted as of September 30, 2018\nASU 2018-02: Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income\nThis update allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Job Act enacted in December 2017. This update will be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.\nASU 2016-02: Leases\nThis update requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all lease obligations and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This update requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under current generally accepted accounting principles. This update will be effective for the Company for all annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company will apply the new standard at its adoption date rather than at the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company anticipates that most of its operating leases will result in the recognition of additional assets and the corresponding liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheets, however it does not expect the standard to have a material impact on the financial position. The actual impact will depend on the Company's lease portfolio at the time of adoption. The Company continues to assess all implications of the standard and related financial disclosures.\nTotal inventories(1)\n(1) Net of assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for approximately $0.1 billion related to the divestiture of the LifeScan business, $0.2 billion related to the divestiture of the Advanced Sterilization Products business and $0.3 billion related to the strategic collaboration with Jabil Inc., all of which were pending as of September 30, 2018.\nNOTE 3 \u2014 INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL\nIntangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The latest annual impairment assessment of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets was completed in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2017. Future impairment tests for goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will be performed annually in the fiscal fourth quarter, or sooner, if warranted.\nIntangible assets with definite lives:\nPatents and trademarks \u2014 gross\nPatents and trademarks \u2014 net (1)\nCustomer relationships and other intangibles \u2014 gross\nCustomer relationships and other intangibles \u2014 net\nIntangible assets with indefinite lives:\nPurchased in-process research and development (2)\nTotal intangible assets with indefinite lives\nTotal intangible assets \u2014 net\n(1) Net of approximately $0.1 billion classified as assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to the divestiture of the LifeScan business, which was pending as of September 30, 2018. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details\n(2) The decrease was primarily attributable to the write-down of $1.1 billion related to the assets acquired in the acquisitions of Alios Biopharma Inc. (Alios) and XO1 Limited (XO1). Of the $1.1 billion, the Company recorded a partial impairment charge of $0.8 billion related to the development program of AL-8176, an investigational drug for the treatment of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) acquired with the 2014 acquisition of Alios. The impairment charge was calculated based on updated cash flow projections discounted for the inherent risk in the asset development and reflects the impact of recent phase 2b clinical trial suspension, a decrease in the probability of success factors and the ongoing analysis of asset development activities. In addition, an impairment charge of $0.3 billion was recorded for the discontinuation of the development project for an anti-thrombin antibody associated with the 2015 acquisition of XO1.\nGoodwill as of September 30, 2018 was allocated by segment of business as follows:\nGoodwill, net at December 31, 2017\nGoodwill, related to acquisitions\nGoodwill, related to divestitures\nCurrency translation/Other\nGoodwill, net at September 30, 2018\n(1) Goodwill of $1.0 billion is related to the divestiture of the LifeScan business and $0.2 billion is related to the divestiture of the Advanced Sterilization Products business, both of which were pending and classified as assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2018.\nThe weighted average amortization periods for patents and trademarks and customer relationships and other intangible assets are 11 years and 22 years, respectively. The amortization expense of amortizable intangible assets included in cost of products sold was $3.3 billion and $1.9 billion for the fiscal nine months ended September 30, 2018 and October 1, 2017, respectively. The estimated amortization expense for the five succeeding years approximates $4.4 billion, before tax, per year. Intangible asset write-downs, other than in-process research and development are included in Other (income) expense, net.\nSee Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details related to acquisitions and divestitures.\nThe Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to manage its exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to the foreign exchange rate changes of future intercompany product and third-party purchases of materials denominated in a foreign currency. The Company uses cross currency interest rate swaps to manage currency risk primarily related to borrowings.\nThe Company also uses equity collar contracts to manage exposure to market risk associated with certain equity investments.\nAll three types of derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges.\nThe Company uses interest rate swaps as an instrument to manage interest rate risk related to fixed rate borrowings. These derivatives are designated as fair value hedges. The Company uses cross currency interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts designated as net investment hedges. Additionally, the Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to offset its exposure to certain foreign currency assets and liabilities. These forward foreign exchange contracts are not designated as hedges, and therefore, changes in the fair values of these derivatives are recognized in earnings, thereby offsetting the current earnings effect of the related foreign currency assets and liabilities.\nThe Company early adopted ASU 2017-12: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedge Activities effective as of the beginning of fiscal second quarter of 2018.\nThe Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, or that contain credit risk related contingent features. During the fiscal second quarter of 2017, the Company entered into credit support agreements (CSA) with certain derivative counterparties establishing collateral thresholds based on respective credit ratings and netting agreements. As of September 30, 2018, the total amount of collateral paid under the credit support agreements amounted to $153 million, net. For equity collar contracts, the Company pledged the underlying hedged marketable equity securities to the counter-party as collateral. On an ongoing basis, the Company monitors counter-party credit ratings. The Company considers credit non-performance risk to be low, because the Company primarily enters into agreements with commercial institutions that have at least an investment grade credit rating. Refer to the table on significant financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value contained in this footnote for receivables and payables with these commercial institutions. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had notional amounts outstanding for forward foreign exchange contracts, cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps of $38.8 billion, $7.3 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had notional amounts outstanding for forward foreign exchange contracts, cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps of $34.5 billion, $2.3 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively.\nAll derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether the derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction, and if so, the type of hedge transaction.\nThe designation as a cash flow hedge is made at the entrance date of the derivative contract. At inception, all derivatives are expected to be highly effective. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as a cash flow hedge and is highly effective are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying transaction affects earnings and are then reclassified to earnings in the same account as the hedged transaction. Gains and losses associated with interest rate swaps and changes in fair value of hedged debt attributable to changes in interest rates are recorded to interest expense in the period in which they occur. Gains and losses on net investment hedges are accounted for through the currency translation account. On an ongoing basis, the Company assesses whether each derivative continues to be highly effective in offsetting changes of hedged items. If a derivative is no longer expected to be highly effective, hedge accounting is discontinued.\nDuring the fiscal second quarter of 2016, the Company designated its Euro denominated notes issued in May 2016 with due dates ranging from 2022 to 2035 as a net investment hedge of the Company's investments in certain of its international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility caused by changes in exchange rates.\nAs of September 30, 2018, the balance of deferred net gain on derivatives included in accumulated other comprehensive income was $16 million after-tax. For additional information, see the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Note 7. The Company expects that substantially all of the amounts related to forward foreign exchange contracts will be reclassified into earnings over the next 12 months as a result of transactions that are expected to occur over that period. The maximum length of time over which the Company is hedging transaction exposure is 18 months, excluding interest rate contracts, net investment hedges and equity collar contracts. The amount ultimately realized in earnings may differ as foreign exchange rates change. Realized gains and losses are ultimately determined by actual exchange rates at maturity of the derivative.\nThe following table is a summary of the activity related to derivatives and hedges for the fiscal third quarters in 2018 and 2017:\nInterest (Income) Expense\nThe effects of fair value, net investment and cash flow hedging:\nGain (Loss) on fair value hedging relationship:\nInterest rate swaps contracts:\nHedged items\nDerivatives designated as hedging instruments\nGain (Loss) on net investment hedging relationship:\nCross currency interest rate swaps contracts:\nAmount of gain or (loss) recognized in income on derivative amount excluded from effectiveness testing\nAmount of gain or (loss) recognized in AOCI\nGain (Loss) on cash flow hedging relationship:\nForward foreign exchange contracts:\nAmount of gain or (loss) reclassified from AOCI into income (1)\nAmount of gain or (loss) recognized in AOCI (1)\nAmount of gain or (loss) reclassified from AOCI into income\nThe following table is a summary of the activity related to derivatives and hedges for the fiscal nine months in 2018 and 2017:\n(1) Includes equity collar contracts. The equity collar contracts expired in December of 2017.\nAs of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the following amounts were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to cumulative basis adjustment for fair value hedges:\nLine item in the Consolidated Balance Sheet in which the hedged item is included\nCarrying Amount of the Hedged Liability\nCumulative Amount of Fair Value Hedging Adjustment Included in the Carrying Amount of the Hedged Liability\nThe following table is the effect of derivatives not designated as hedging instrument for the fiscal third quarters and fiscal nine months in 2018 and 2017:\nIncome on Derivative\nLocation of Gain /(Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivative\nThe following table is the effect of net investment hedges for the fiscal third quarters in 2018 and 2017:\nLocation of Gain or (Loss) Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Into Income\nGain/(Loss) Reclassified From\nAccumulated OCI\nThe following table is the effect of net investment hedges for the fiscal nine months in 2018 and 2017:\nThe Company adopted ASU 2016-01: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities as of the beginning of the fiscal year 2018. This ASU amends prior guidance to classify equity investments with readily determinable market values into different categories (that is, trading or available-for-sale) and require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through net earnings. The Company made a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings upon adoption of ASU 2016-01 which increased retained earnings by $232 million, net of tax, and decreased accumulated other comprehensive income for previously net unrealized gains from equity investments.\nThe Company holds equity investments with readily determinable fair values and equity investments without readily determinable fair values. The Company has elected to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.\nThe following table is a summary of the activity related to equity investments as of September 30, 2018:\nChanges in Fair Value Reflected in Net Income (1)\nSales/ Purchases/Other (2)\nNon Current Other Assets\nEquity Investments with readily determinable value\nEquity Investments without readily determinable value\n(1) Recorded in Other Income/Expense\n(2) Other includes impact of currency\nFor equity investments without readily determinable market values, $31 million of the changes in fair value reflected in net income were the result of impairments. There were $38 million of changes in fair value reflected in net income due to changes in observable prices.\nFor the fiscal nine months ended October 1, 2017, changes in fair value reflected within other comprehensive income due to previously unrealized gains on equity investments with readily determinable fair values net of tax was a net gain of $269 million.\nFair value is the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Fair value is a market-based measurement determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative literature establishes a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels within the hierarchy are described below with Level 1 inputs having the highest priority and Level 3 inputs having the lowest.\nThe fair value of a derivative financial instrument (i.e., forward foreign exchange contracts, interest rate contracts) is the aggregation by currency of all future cash flows discounted to its present value at the prevailing market interest rates and subsequently converted to the U.S. Dollar at the current spot foreign exchange rate. The Company does not believe that fair values of these derivative instruments materially differ from the amounts that could be realized upon settlement or maturity, or that the changes in fair value will have a material effect on the Company\u2019s results of operations, cash flows or financial position. The Company also holds equity investments which are classified as Level 1 and debt securities which are classified as Level 2. The Company did not have any other significant financial assets or liabilities which would require revised valuations under this standard that are recognized at fair value.\nThe following three levels of inputs are used to measure fair value:\nLevel 2 \u2014 Significant other observable inputs.\nLevel 3 \u2014 Significant unobservable inputs.\nThe Company\u2019s significant financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows:\nInterest rate contracts (2)(4)\nGross to Net Derivative Reconciliation\nTotal Gross Assets\nCredit Support Agreement (CSA)\nTotal Net Asset\nTotal Gross Liabilities\n2017 assets and liabilities are all classified as Level 2 with the exception of equity investments of $751 million, which are classified as Level 1.\nIncludes $4 million and $7 million of non-current other assets for September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.\nIncludes $6 million and $9 million of non-current other liabilities for September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.\nIncludes cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps.\nClassified as non-current other assets. The carrying amount of the equity investments were $697 million and $751 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.\nClassified as cash equivalents and current marketable securities.\nThe Company's cash, cash equivalents and current marketable securities as of September 30, 2018 comprised:\nUnrecognized Loss\nCurrent Marketable Securities\nOther sovereign securities(1)\nU.S. reverse repurchase agreements\nOther reverse repurchase agreements\nOther sovereign securities\nSubtotal available for sale debt(2)\nTotal cash, cash equivalents and current marketable securities\n(1) Held to maturity investments are reported at amortized cost and gains or losses are reported in earnings.\n(2) Available for sale debt securities are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported net of taxes in other comprehensive income.\nFair value of government securities and obligations and corporate debt securities was estimated using quoted broker prices and significant other observable inputs.\nThe Company classifies all highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase as cash equivalents and all highly liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months from the date of purchase as current marketable securities. Available for sale securities with stated maturities of greater than one year from the date of purchase are available for current operations and are classified as cash equivalents and current marketable securities.\nThe contractual maturities of the available for sale securities at September 30, 2018 are as follows:\nFinancial Instruments not measured at Fair Value:\nThe following financial liabilities are held at carrying amount on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018:\n4.75% Notes due 2019 (1B Euro 1.1681)\n3% Zero Coupon Convertible Subordinated Debentures due in 2020\n2.95% Debentures due 2020\n0.250% Notes due 2022 (1B Euro 1.1681)\n0.650% Notes due 2024 (750MM Euro 1.1681)\n5.50% Notes due 2024 (500 MM GBP 1.3123)\n1.650% Notes due 2035 (1.5B Euro 1.1681)\nTotal Non-Current Debt\nThe weighted average effective interest rate on non-current debt is 3.20%.\nThe excess of the estimated fair value over the carrying value of debt was $2.0 billion at December 31, 2017.\nFair value of the non-current debt was estimated using market prices, which were corroborated by quoted broker prices and significant other observable inputs.\nThe worldwide effective income tax rates for the fiscal nine months of 2018 and 2017 were 17.6% and 20.5%, respectively. The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted into law effective January 1, 2018. This law reduces the U.S. statutory corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, eliminates or reduces certain corporate income tax deductions and introduces a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI). In December 2017, the Company recorded a provisional tax cost of $13.0 billion related to the enactment of the TCJA. Under the guidance in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (SAB 118), the provisional amount was a reasonable estimate based on the most recent information and guidance available related to the calculation of the tax liability and the impact to its deferred tax assets and liabilities, including those recorded for foreign local and withholding taxes as of the 2017 assessment date of January 18, 2018. As noted below, the Company has made adjustments through the third quarter of 2018. All amounts recorded remain provisional and may require further adjustments and changes to the Company\u2019s estimates as new guidance is made available. The estimate is subject to the finalization of management\u2019s analysis related to certain matters, such as developing interpretations of the provisions of the TCJA, changes to certain estimates and amounts related to the earnings and profits of certain subsidiaries and the filing of tax returns. Revisions to the provisional charge may be material to the Company's future financial results. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 for further details on the TCJA and SAB 118.\nThe Company completed its acquisition of AMO in the first fiscal quarter of 2017, and incurred incremental tax costs that were discretely recorded in the first quarter of 2017, which had increased the effective tax rate by 1.4% for the first nine months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2018. Additionally, in 2018 the Company had more income in higher tax jurisdictions relative to lower tax jurisdictions as compared to 2017. Tax benefits received from stock-based compensation during the fiscal nine months of 2018 and 2017, reduced the effective tax rate by 1.2% and 2.1%, respectively. The reduction of the U.S. statutory corporate tax rate including the effects of tax elections which resulted in the acceleration of certain deductions into the 2017 tax return (1) , offset by the elimination of the corporate income tax deductions, measurement period adjustments (2) and the GILTI tax (3) , decreased the Company\u2019s worldwide effective rate as compared to the same period of the prior year. As previously disclosed, the Company has elected to provisionally treat the GILTI tax as a period expense, pending further analysis by management of this new tax provision which will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2018.\n(1) The impact of the accelerations of these deductions on the effective tax rate through the fiscal nine months of 2018 was a decrease of approximately 2.0%.\n(2)The following adjustments were made to the provisional tax amounts through the fiscal third quarter of 2018 due to issued Treasury guidance and revisions to the Company\u2019s estimates since the assessment date:\n$0.1 billion increase to the transition tax on previously undistributed foreign earnings as of December 31, 2017 due to U.S. Treasury Department\u2019s issuance of Notice 2018-13 on January 19, 2018, Notice 2018-26 on April 2, 2018, Notice 2018-78 on October 1, 2018 and updates to prior estimates\n$0.3 billion decrease to the deferred tax liability for foreign withholding and local taxes, partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 billion in deferred tax assets for U.S. foreign tax credits due to updated estimates from the amounts recorded in 2017.\nThese measurement period adjustments decreased the Company\u2019s effective tax rate by approximately 0.4% through the first fiscal nine months of 2018 as compared to the same period of the prior year.\n(3) The impact of GILTI on the effective tax rate through the first fiscal nine months of 2018 was an increase of 2.5%.\nIn 2017, the Company provisionally recorded the TCJA transition tax and foreign local and withholding taxes on substantially all of the Company\u2019s foreign earnings. The Company has currently designated a portion of its 2018 foreign earnings as indefinitely reinvested in certain foreign jurisdictions and, as such, has not accrued for the impact of foreign local and withholding taxes in its financial results related to these earnings. The estimated impact of these taxes would have been an increase of approximately 2.5% to the year-to-date effective tax rate. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has no plans or intention to repatriate these designated earnings to the United States. However, the Company is continuing to evaluate its reinvestment plans based on the enacted provisions of the TCJA and related guidance issued to-date in 2018 by the U.S. Department of Treasury, specifically related to the eligibility of these earnings to utilize foreign tax credits. As further Treasury guidance is provided, the Company may re-evaluate its reinvestment plans and strategies for all of its foreign earnings.\nAs of September 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $3.2 billion of liabilities from unrecognized tax benefits. The Company believes it is possible that audits may be completed by tax authorities in some jurisdictions over the next twelve months. The Company is not able to provide a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of any future tax payments relating to uncertain tax positions. The IRS has completed its audit for the tax years through 2009 and is currently auditing the tax years 2010 through 2012. The Company currently expects completion of this audit during 2019. Final conclusion of the tax audit may result in an outcome that is different than the Company\u2019s estimates and may result in a material impact on the Company\u2019s current and future operating results or cash flows in the period that the audit is concluded.\nNOTE 6 \u2014 PENSIONS AND OTHER BENEFIT PLANS\nNet periodic benefit cost for the Company\u2019s defined benefit retirement plans and other benefit plans for the fiscal third quarters and fiscal nine months of 2018 and 2017 include the following components:\nOther Benefit Plans\nAmortization of prior service cost/(credit)",

PATS ARE IN IT\u2026YET AGAIN! For the original content (which is still largely the same) visit my archives page.\nSince I have been watching professional sports from the time I was Ten in 1991, I have been a witness to many sports dynasties. As time goes on, I better appreciate how remarkable they truly are and were. Of course, dynasties in sports come and go just like any cycle. Let\u2019s go back to *my earliest memories of +Championship dynasties (from the date they last won the title in that era).\n*Of course, there were dynasties before my time, even in my lifetime. But, since I was not following the dynasties of the 1980s, nor was I aware of them until later I can\u2019t count them. But, if you really want to look them up yourselves, the four that come to mind for me from the 80s are the Larry Bird lead Boston Celtics, the Magic Johnson lead LA Lakers, Wayne Gretzky of the Edmonton Oilers and the Joe Montana lead 49ers.\n+Also for the record I\u2019m not counting individual sports like Tennis or Golf, although my cap\u2019s off to Federer and Serena for their continued dominance in Tennis as well as Tiger for what he did for the sport of Golf before his life became a train wreck. Although there does seem to be light at the end of the tunnel for Tiger, after all. https://www.bbc.com/sport/golf/45625712. And I did enjoy the recent Biography that came out last Spring about him. https://www.golfdigest.com/story/new-tiger-woods-book-explores-how-a-golfer-groomed-for-stardom-was-left-adrift-as-a-man. Also, I\u2019m not mentioning Hockey either, as that is not my forte. I might mention one or two college teams, but that is hard to do as college players are so transient, it\u2019s more about a Coach in college than a collection of players (on a consistent basis that is).\nThe Dynasties of yesterday that will forever be in the Record Books\nDallas Cowboys! 3 Super Bowl Victories in 4 years. 1992 Champs, 93 Champs and 95 Champs!\nI could not stand the Cowboys! They beat every team I liked. I really liked the Steve Young lead 49ers, and it wasn\u2019t until Jerry Jones foolishly ended Jimmy Johnson\u2019s\u2019 reign as Head Coach that the Niners were able to finally beat them (The 94 Season). But the Cowboys still had one more Super Bowl Title in them. Being a NY Born and bred guy, I was a Giants fan, and I still remember being in an airport the day that Emmitt Smith single-handedly beat the Giants on the last day of the regular season (with a separated shoulder no less http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-top-ten/09000d5d80498dcd/Top-Ten-Weather-Games-1975-AFC-Championship ) to clinch the top seed and sully Lawrence Taylor\u2019s final season in the NFL. That and the Cowboys always beat the Randall Cunningham lead Eagles (a Team I had a fondness for having family from Philly). Repeat, I could not stand the Cowboys!\nThe Chicago Bulls! 6 Titles in 8 years 1991,1992,1993,1996,1997,1998.\nBasketball is and forever will be my favorite professional sport to follow. In fact, I came of age on the Chicago Bulls. Even though (as a Knicks fan) they always broke my heart, my fondness of the Bulls was always strong. One of my all-time favorite books by the late great David Halberstam was \u201cPlaying for Keeps\u201d primarily based on the 1997-98 Bulls Season (their last title season) https://www.amazon.com/Playing-Keeps-Michael-Jordan-World/dp/0767904443 . One of my all-time favorite sports articles was Bill Simmons piece on Scottie Pippen \u201cThe other 33\u201d http://www.espn.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/041101 . I have read countless other tabloid-like books on Michael Jordan and the Bulls (as well as Phil Jackson too). I won\u2019t go into more details on this dynasty, but just know that there is good reason MJ is still considered the undisputed GOAT! There\u2019s also reason to believe once Phil Jackson finally gets the stench off him as a failed Knicks GM, that history will again primarily remember him as an all-time great coach!\nThe NY Yankees 4 titles in 5 years! 1996,1998,1999,2000.\nI was never a big baseball guy, but I too was growing tired of always seeing the Yankees continuously winning. I even remember towards the summer time of the Yankees last title of this run (June 2000), I asked my parents\u2019 family friend and carpenter Manny if he ever got tired of the Yankees winning all the time. Now, Manny was this Brooklyn born Italian dude with the personality of all things wholesome and NY, and he said \u201cJosh, I wish the Yankees won every friggin game\u201d. I was what, 18, (half a life-time ago now) so, what did I know about good things coming to an end? Manny surely did. It was a valuable lesson I still remember to this day.\nPS \u2013 I should probably give more due to the BoSox and their remarkable run of 4 titles in the past 14 years\u2026especially since you do have to go back to 1918 to relive a World Series Championship by them in the 20th Century. Which really is remarkable!!! Makes me think someone 70 years from now will be blogging about the NY Knicks and their remarkable turnaround (when I\u2019m already in the grave\u2026LOL)\nLA Lakers 3 straight titles 2000, 2001, 2002.\nOh, what could have been!? ShaQobe* was such an awesome on-two punch. Why they couldn\u2019t win titles before Phil Jackson got there was maddening. Why they ended in such acrimony was fascinating. Here too I have read more than my share of tabloid-like books on these cast of characters as well. Few people outside of die-hard NBA fans remember this, but the Lakers were gift wrapped Game 6 of the WCF in 2002 vs the Kings https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjRcTiwVEwo . That match-up between those two teams was the real Finals that year. (I wrote about that series, here as well https://joshoffthepress.com/2017/06/02/mj-or-lebron-lebron-or-mj-also-2017-finals-predictions/ ). That and, it\u2019s still amazing to me that the Blazers blew a 15 point lead in the 4th quarter of that Game 7 in the 2000 WCF. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLyHKhpYLmU Wow! For a dynastic team such as these dysfunctional Lakers, they sure seemed lucky. But, oh well\u2026what could have been. (*Shaq and Kobe\u2019s name combined makes SHAQOBE).\nThe San Antonio Spurs 5 Titles in 15 years; winning at least 1 title in each of the last 3 decades with Tim Duncan as their corner-stone player, and the legendary Gregg Popovich as thee head Coach. 1999, 2003,2005,2007, 2014.\nWhen I think of the legendary British Soccer Club, Manchester United of the Premiere League, I think of the Spurs as the American counter-parts to what Man U has been able to accomplish over a period of such long and sustained success. Granted MAN U has been in existence for 140 years now, but I still think of the Spurs as representing a certain level of sustained success in the past 20* years that I have not seen in any other Basketball team in the NBA or any other American Sports Franchise for that matter https://www.cheatsheet.com/sports/winningest-franchises-pro-sports.html/?a=viewall. (*This article referenced here goes back 30+ years). Just note that Tim Duncan probably will go down in history as the most unheralded Top 10 Greatest basketball player ever. Here\u2019s a great SI piece on Duncan to give you a better look at his career. https://www.si.com/nba/2016/07/11/tim-duncan-retires-spurs-gregg-popovich-tim-duncan-manu-ginobili. Also, to get a glimpse of what it\u2019s like to chill on a couch with Duncan, here is this podcast episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iWA1Shnn8o (which will at least give you some kind of look under the hood ). As for Pop, there have been several people looking to recruit Pop to run for POTUS in 2020. All joking aside for celebrity picks for President, as I think this country should go back to boring ass politicians ASAP (thanks for scarring us for life Trump), I do find the idea of Pop as POTUS at least somewhat romantic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Cbtvzh8Voo\nThe Dynasties that are currently still building on their Legacies\nGolden State Warriors (4 straight finals 2015-2018 and 3 titles \u2013 15,17,18) If you ask me I think they have cheapened sports dynasties. They are bad for the NBA, plain and simple. There\u2019s no putting lipstick on a pig here. It is what is is. I\u2019m not longer angry about it. I just \u201csigh\u201d and am like, The last two titles they won have been cheap. I give them way more credit for their 2015 Title and their almost 2016 title, than I will ever give them for the past two titles in 2017, or 2018. And if they don\u2019t self-combust this year, I\u2019ll give them more credit for this 2019 title (def more so than then 17 or 18) but still not as much credit as they deserve for that 1st one in 2015, even though the Cavs were under-manned with no Kyrie for 4.75 out of 6 games, and KLOVE out for the whole series).\nAlabama Crimson Tide. 2009, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017 Champions.\n*Nick Saban is one of the greatest football coaches, ever! According to Colin Cowherd, Alabama\u2019s last championship victory (just last year after this year\u2019s 2nd place finish) was his greatest coaching job, ever! https://www.seccountry.com/alabama/colin-cowherd-nick-saban-georgia-thought-best-coaching-effort-time . This team has been a perennial title contender every single year Saban has been there. They finished what #5 in 2013 (just missing the first ever 4 team playoff) #3 in 2014 and #2 in 2016 & 2018? Just a remarkable run of continued excellence incredible. If any of my readers can suggest one biography written about him I should read, please tell me as I know there are two prominent ones out there, (among others), yet I just want to sink my teeth into one of them for the time being.\n*I\u2019m not going to mention any other college teams. People could possibly make the case for Duke and Coach K, but the college basketball culture of 1 and done, that and the fact that there is only so much talent to go around in college basketball relative to college football, causes me to exclude college ball from this list too.\nWhatever Team LEBRON JAMES is playing on; 9 Finals appearances in 12 years, 2007, and then 8 straight trips to the Finals 2011,2012,2013,2014,2015, 2016, 2017,2018 \u2013 3 Championships 2012,2013,2016.\nI\u2019ll be the first to admit the NOW 3-6* record in the Finals is a bit of an eye sore. But, how LeBron is consistently able to be the one player over all these years to play the last official NBA Game of the year, every friggin year for 8* straight years!!! WOW! MJ needed a break during his title run. (check out my take on the MJ v LeBron argument here https://joshoffthepress.com/2017/06/02/mj-or-lebron-lebron-or-mj-also-2017-finals-predictions/). Oh, and this play! I still get chills from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zd62MxKXp8\nThe New England Patriots: 9* Super Bowl Appearances in 18* years (based on Season not on date game was played) 2001, 2003, 2004, 2007, 2011, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018. 5 Championships 2001,2003,2014,2016, Possible 6th one\u2026 2018*??\nI honestly don\u2019t think we will see anything quite like this in the NFL again. Well, for one thing, the NFL as we know it might be a totally different league in 10 years (especially given this recent more honest/transparent spike in reporting http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/22226487/nfl-concussions-rise-highest-level-league-began-sharing-data). No matter what the future of football is, what Bill Bellichick has been able to do as Head Coach of this team and what Tom Brady has been able to accomplish as the starting QB\u2026. WOW!\nAnyhow, the long and short is, last year I thought the PATS would win against the Eagles and that would be the end of their dynasty. Well, I was wrong on both fronts. This year I bet a buddy $20 bucks the Pats would win. If the Rams win, I owe him $25. So, not sure what odds you call that. But, either way I\u2019m not terribly invested in this game either way. I just want to see a good game, and admire Greatness when I see it. And the PATS have been one of the main the embodiment\u2019s of greatness in American Sports history!\nPS -If you are interested in politics in a similar way you are interested in sports, with some of the jockeying for for position, and some of the horse races going on around the 2020 Presidential election please check out my latest post from just a few days ago \u2013 https://joshoffthepress.com/2019/02/01/the-first-female-president-of-the-united-states-will-be/\nPlease subscribe to this blog \u2013 all you have to do is hit the \u201cFollow\u201d link, and you can follow me/subscribe to this!\n\u00ab The first Female President of the United States will be\u2026\n^Happy Birthday in Heaven, Mom!

        "raw_content": "James Ramon Felak, Professor of History, University of Washington\nJohn Palka, scion of one of the most distinguished families in the history of Slovakia, has written a beautiful account of the history of his family within the context of developments in his ancestral homeland. Incorporating social, cultural, and political history, Palka interweaves a sweeping account of Slovakia over the past several centuries with the story of a family situated at the heart of the major developments and events of that history.\nPalka\u2019s ancestors are unique and significant for a number of reasons. At a time and place where nearly all business owners were German, Hungarian, or Jewish, Palka\u2019s family were successful Slovak entrepreneurs. Moreover, as leading members of the nascent intelligentsia of an emerging Central European nation, the Hod\u017eas were at the head of the political, cultural, professional, and religious life of nineteenth century Slovakia. As Lutheran pastors, they were important figures in Slovak religious life. Politically, Michal Miloslav Hod\u017ea was one of the three leaders of the Slovaks during the Europeanwide Revolution of 1848. The Hod\u017ea family also boasted a number of impressive, educated women, one of whom kept up a lifelong correspondence with one of Slovakia\u2019s greatest national poets.\nAlong with a rich account of nineteenth century life in the Habsburg Empire as seen through the experiences of his ancestors, Palka shifts to high politics as he presents interwar and wartime Slovak history through the figure of his illustrious grandfather, Milan Hod\u017ea, the leader of the Slovak Agrarian Party who helped midwife the birth of Czechoslovakia, served it as foreign minister and prime minister, and worked to restore it as an exile in London and Chicago during the World War II.\nLittle is known of Slovakia in the West. Few good histories exist, and what little there is deals mainly with the twentieth century. Palka\u2019s book should interest scholars of the history of the Habsburg Empire, nineteenth century romantic nationalism, and European politics between the two world wars. It should also gain a wide readership among Slovaks and Czechs living in the United States and Canada. History comes alive when seen from the perspective of flesh and blood human beings situated in the midst of major historical developments. John Palka has given us an account of Slovakia\u2019s history that engages the reader by making it personal.",

When the print shop proved less than lucrative, he took his printing knowledge with him to the Hamilton Mfg Co. in Two Rivers where he worked in the wood type shop the entirety of his Hamilton career, before transitioning into one of the best loved volunteers at the new Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum. Norb was beloved by the filmmakers and other subjects of Typeface, many of whom still cherish wooden letters cut by Norb himself.\nOn his passing, director/producer Justine Nagan wrote, \"It's with great sadness, and love, that we share the news of Norb Brylski's passing.

        "title": "4 Ways to Graduate from Freelancer to Entrepreneur \u2014 Business Consulting",
        "raw_content": "According to a study commissioned by Upwork and the Freelancers Union, there are 55 million independent workers in the United States. But within this group, as many as 35% identify as \u201cindependent contractors\u201d (what I call a \u201cfreelancer), while only 7% identify as \u201cindependent business owners\u201d (which I call \u201centrepreneurs\u201d).\nIn the growing gig economy, the line between entrepreneur and freelancer can be difficult to define, especially for creatives. On the surface, they share a lot in common. Flexibility. Control. Job satisfaction. Warby Parkers.\nEven though it may not be obvious on the surface, there is a big difference between being a freelancer and being an entrepreneur. While freelancing gives you a degree of control over your work and life, entrepreneurship affords you the opportunity to make more money, get more recognition, have more creative control, and build something that can survive \u2014 and make money \u2014 without you punching the clock.\nThat\u2019s not to say that being a freelancer is wrong or bad. After all, it is the lifestyle of choice for 19 million people in the American workforce. Daniel DiPiazza even explains here that freelancing can be a good first step towards entrepreneurship, serving as a testing ground for your skills in the marketplace. But wherever you are in your journey, being a freelancer needs to be a conscious choice, not a subconscious one.\nIf you are looking to make a shift, or if you are unsure of where you stand, I\u2019ve laid out 4 ways to graduate from freelancer to entrepreneur.\nPosition Yourself as a Peer Professional\nThe nature of the relationship you have with your clients is one of the most subtle but significant differences between being a freelancer and being an entrepreneur. Freelancers use their skills \u2014 photography, design, filmmaking, copywriting, painting, illustration \u2014 to perform tasks for clients. They come to the table as commissioned artists, ready to produce work at the client\u2019s direction and for the client\u2019s vision. On the contrary, entrepreneurs use their skills to provide solutions and create value for clients. They come to the table as peer professionals, collaborators, and partners with a creative vision and point of view.\nThe difference here may seem semantic, but it's not. When your clients see you as a contractor, you become just another business expense that needs to be purchased at the lowest possible cost in order to keep the business profitable. But, when you position yourself toward your clients as a professional that creates value and solutions for their business, then you have the opportunity to charge fees that are commensurate with the value you create, not the labor hours you perform. This subtle difference can have a significant impact on your bottom line.\nGenerate a Profit, Not Just a Salary\nMany creative entrepreneurs that I work with are primarily concerned with their ability to pay themselves enough to cover their cost of living. If you can bring in enough money to pay yourself a fair salary and keep the lights on in your office, that\u2019s success. However, if you are only concerned with paying your salary, you don\u2019t really have a business. You have what Andrew Carroll of the Get Orthogonal podcast refers to as \u201cowning your own job.\u201d\nNo serious business defines success as just making payroll. Businesses need to make profit. Not only does profit make your business more financially secure, but it also opens up opportunities to reinvest in projects, initiatives, and opportunities that will take your business to the next level. That can\u2019t happen by just earning a paycheck.\nI became a freelancer six years ago. After having my first baby, I felt like the flexibility and freedom of the freelancer lifestyle would be a better fit for me and my family. I didn\u2019t have a clear sense of what I wanted to create, who I wanted to become, or where I saw myself in ten years. I just knew that traditional consulting wasn\u2019t going to work anymore.\nHaving a clear and focused vision is a key difference between an entrepreneur and a freelancer. Freelancers take whatever work comes their way that will make them money. When I first started out as a freelance consultant, I did everything that would pay money, from financial analysis for large public utilities to personal financial planning. I was throwing wet noodles at the wall and hoping some of them would stick.\nEntrepreneurs, on the other hand, are trying to build something, and they strategically say \u201cno\u201d to anything that would detract from that vision (even paying work). Their clarity of vision and focus makes it easy to structure their time, allocate resources, and evaluate opportunities. If you ask them what other companies or professionals they admire and want to emulate, they will have a list. If you ask them how much money they want to make next year, they have a number. If you ask them what they want to look back on in five years and be proud of, they can articulate those aspirations.\nHaving a vision for yourself isn\u2019t about having a perfectly crafted masterplan that lays out every single step that will be required to reach your goals; it is about having a sense of where you are headed so that you can take just the next step.\n\u201cIf I fail, it\u2019s ok. I\u2019ll just go get a job.\u201d\nIf this is your mentality, you probably are a freelancer, not an entrepreneur. To sell your time isn\u2019t risky. It may not be as stable as earning a W2 salary, but aside from that, there isn\u2019t much risk involved. If you can\u2019t bring in enough work to pay your bills, you just go and get a job.\nEntrepreneurs have something on the line. They have thrown their time, resources, relationships, money, and reputation into an idea, and if it fails, it's going to cost something. If their business goes away, it will have an impact on them, their family, their community, and their colleagues.\nSteven Pressfield, in his The War of Art, says, \u201cFor the professional, the stakes are high and real.\"\nBe a pro. Take some risks.\nEntrepreneurshipKatie Wussow October 2, 2017 2 Comments",

        "raw_content": "I was fortunate to talk with Scott Fowler, one of the quartet\u2019s founding members, after a concert at Sand Spring Baptist Church on Jan. 24. It was a performance that drew a good crowd on a bitterly cold night and prompted several extended standing ovations.\nFowler was excited to talk about the group\u2019s plans for the coming year. \u201cWe are getting ready to release our first video in about five or six years,\u201d he said, noting that 21-year-old pianist Josh Townsend will be prominently featured. \u201cA couple of things people have been asking for are J.T.\u2019s testimony, which you heard tonight, and the song that he sings.\u201d\nLegacy Five pianist Josh Townsend delivers a tearful rendition of \u201cGod\u2019s Been Good.\u201d\nTownsend, who has overcome two childhood tumors and a massive stroke while being carried in his mother\u2019s womb, shared his testimony with a mesmerized audience before singing the tear-filled \u201cGod\u2019s Been Good,\u201d a bonus track from the \u201cFaith and Freedom\u201d album released in late 2017.\n\u201cPeople ask a lot if we\u2019ve got the patriotic segment we did tonight on video,\u201d Fowler continued. \u201cThat\u2019s going to be on the video with \u2018I Made it to Arlington\u201d along with the \u2018Tribute to the Troops\u201d we do. Those are two big items that will be on the DVD. It will be called, \u2018Live in Peoria.\u2019\n\u201cIt will come out around the first of March, maybe the 15th. Then we are working on a new studio album. We don\u2019t have it titled yet, but it will have 10 brand new songs on it. That will be coming in the late spring or early summer.\u201d\nFowler said The Legacy Five will be on a normal tour schedule of about 135 concerts, too.\nThe Sand Spring concert was heavy on songs from \u201cFaith and Freedom,\u201d including \u201cGod Bless the USA,\u201d \u201cHallelujah Chorus\u201d and a rousing version of \u201cWhen the Saints Go Marching In\u201d as the finale.\nLegacy Five founding member Scott Fowler sings \u201cThrough it All\u201d during the concert at Sand Spring Baptist Church.\nFowler explained the reasoning behind the album. \u201cI have always been very patriotic personally,\u201d he said. \u201cI have always had a deep sense of gratitude. I have been to El Salvador. I have been to the Dominican Republic. I have been to the nation of Colombia. They are great places with great people, but the kids there will never have the opportunities of kids in America because of where they were born. I realize that the only difference between my kids ant those kids in other countries was where they were born. There is no other difference.\n\u201cThey may speak a different language and their skin might be a different color but God doesn\u2019t love them any less than he loves my kids. I am very grateful that my kids were allowed to be born in America.\n\u201cThen you have the political climate. The culture got there for a while there that people were apologizing for America and not standing for the Anthem, just not being respectful. I wanted people to know where Legacy Five stood on those issues, so that is what we did.\u201d\nThe group took time to recognize veterans from all branches of the service. \u201cVeterans deserve everything our government will give them and more,\u201d Fowler said.\nTenor Josh Feemster. (All photos by John Herndon)\nFowler is one of the veterans of gospel music, singing with the Cathedrals for 10 years before legends George Younce and Glen Payne retired the group. Fowler and Cathedrals pianist Roger Bennett formed Legacy Five to begin touring in January of 2000. Bennett died in 2007, but the group continues as one of gospel music\u2019s most popular.\nPart of Legacy Five\u2019s appeal has been its ability to adapt to a changing world. \u201cThe actual style has changed. It always gets a little more progressive,\u201d Fowler said, noting the same thing happens in other styles of music.\n\u201cThe biggest change is technologically. You know with all the social media, now your music is available online and on YouTube. You can stream it. Nobody knew what those terms were 20 years ago.\u201d\nWhen Fowler talked about CD\u2019s and other merchandise available at the product table, he noted the group had a USB-drive loaded with several albums available.\nFowler smiled, \u201cThe message doesn\u2019t change. The package changes, but the message never changes.\u201d\nIt\u2019s why Legacy Five remains near the top of gospel music.\nBass singer Matt Fouch, a resident of Somerset, Ky.\nBaritone Scott Howard, who has been with Legacy Five from the beginning.\nThe music keeps turning for Victory Road \u2192",

Today, they are mostly worn as leisure wear.\nA so-called Knopflatz Lederhose\nLederhosen were once widespread among Germanic men of the Alpine and surrounding regions, including Bavaria, Austria, and the German-speaking part of Italy\u2019s province of South Tyrol, but they were not usually worn in south-western Germany or Switzerland.\nThe popularity of lederhosen in Bavaria dropped sharply in the 19th century. They began to be considered as uncultured peasants\u2019 clothing that was not fitting for modern city-dwellers. However, in the 1880s a resurgence set in, and several clubs were founded in Munich and other large cities devoted to preserving traditional rural clothing styles. After this time, traditional wear such as the lederhosen became an object of inverted snobbery as the upper classes began to hold festivities in a remade traditional atmosphere and dressed up as peasants.\nPosted in Fashion, Germany, Hall of Fame, Sociology\t| Tagged Austria, Bavaria, Germany, Italy, Lederhosen, Munich, South Tyrol, Switzerland\t| Leave a reply\nCanard [Noun.]\n1.

In Greek, the word is kallist\u0113i (the dative singular of the feminine superlative of kalos, meaning \u2018beautiful\u2019). Its meaning can be rendered \u201cto the fairest one\u201d.\nOn a trivial note: in the Eixample district of Barcelona is a block nicknamed in Spanish: La manzana de la discordia (L\u2019illa de la disc\u00f2rdia in Catalan), the reason for this usage is because manzana means both \u2018apple\u2019 and \u2018city block\u2019 in Spanish.

They were still only newly-weds when she, while walking through the meadows, stepped on a snake that bit her heel and tore away her young life. Orpheus dared travelling to the underworld and approach the throne of Hades. He accompanied his wistful song with string music. Then the shades cried, Tantalus forgot to bow to the water, Sisyphus sat listening on the stone that would not role away any more and even the Erinyes were moved to tears. Eurydice was called and returned to her husband; he was allowed to carry her to the world above as long he would not look at her before they had left the land of the shades. When they had come close to the exit, Orpheus \u2013 afraid that she might not make it to the exit, and filled with a desire to see her \u2013 looked behind him and saw her disappear; when he tried to grasp her, he reached out into air.

While both have changed over time, it\u2019s actually British accents that have changed much more drastically since then.\nFirst, let\u2019s be clear: the terms British accent and American accent are oversimplifications; there were, and still are, innumerable constantly-evolving regional British and American accents. What most Americans think of as the British accent is the standardized Received Pronunciation, also known as \u2018BBC English\u2019.\nWhile there are many differences between today\u2019s British accents and today\u2019s American accents, perhaps the most noticeable difference is rhotacism. While most American accents are rhotic, the standard British accent is non-rhotic. (Rhotic speakers pronounce the \u2018R\u2019 sound in the word \u2018hard\u2019. Non-rhotic speakers do not.)\nIn 1776, both American accents and British accents were largely rhotic. It was around this time that non-rhotic speech took off in southern England, especially among the upper class. This prestige non-rhotic speech was standardized, and has been spreading in Britain ever since. Most American accents, however, remained rhotic. However, there are a few fascinating exceptions: like Irish and Scottish accents, New York and Boston accents became non-rhotic.\nPosted in Accent, England, English, Hall of Fame, History, Language, Linguistics, United States of America\t| Tagged American English, British English, England, New York, Received Pronunciation, Regional accents of English, Rhotic and non-rhotic accents, United States\t| 1 Reply",

        "raw_content": "JOHN LENNON 75th BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE CONCERT RELEASED TODAY\nOut today (January 18th) is the three-disc CD/DVD set, titled Imagine: John Lennon 75th Birthday Celebration. The tribute concert for the late-Beatle was captured on December 5th, 2015 at the Theatre at Madison Square Garden -- known back in the day as the Felt Forum -- and features performances by Steven Tyler, Peter Frampton, John Fogerty, Sheryl Crow, and Willie Nelson. The show, which originally aired on AMC, also features Kris Kristofferson, Tom Morello, the Roots, the Killers' Brandon Flowers, Eric Church, and Train's Pat Monahan, among others.\nShortly before his death, in the fall of 1980, John Lennon explained that for anyone to seek definitive answers from him -- or from anything -- is missing the point of living in the now and as an individual: \"The idea of leadership is a false god. And if you wanna use the Beatles -- or John and Yoko -- people are expecting us to do something for them. That\u2019s not what\u2019s going to happen. Because they\u2019re the ones that didn\u2019t understand any message that came before, anyway. And they\u2019re the ones that\u2019ll follow (Adolf) Hitler or the Reverend (Sun Myung) Moon, or whatever. Following is not what it\u2019s about.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb International \u00bb Why are right-wing populists winning everywhere?\nWhy are right-wing populists winning everywhere?\nThe global march of right-wing populism has claimed yet another country. This time, it's Brazil, where a once obscure former army captain Jair Bolsonaro won the presidency by a decisive margin.\nBolsonaro's candidacy bears obvious similarity to other notable right-wing populist candidates. Brazil has struggled with persistently high crime, and its established parties have been rocked by a wide-ranging corruption scandal that sent its popular former president, Luiz In\u00e1cio \"Lula\" da Silva, to prison; Bolsonaro's central campaign themes were restoring order and ending corruption. The thrice-married Bolsonaro also professed an in-your-face masculinism that should also feel familiar to observers of President Trump and Vladimir Putin and alt-right circles on the internet. And Bolsonaro's campaign took advantage of social media in a way that establishment candidates around the world continue to struggle to replicate.\nBut while it's easy in retrospect to explain Bolsonaro's extraordinary rise, and to note similarities between him and far-right phenomena around the world, it's also worth pointing out how different political, economic and cultural conditions have been across the various countries in which right-wing populists have come to power. That very diversity should make us wary of concluding too quickly that we fully understand the political changes that are rocking the globe.\nRight-wing populist and nationalist governments are in power in Russia, Turkey, India, Israel, Hungary, Poland, the United States, and they share power with left-wing populists in Italy. Established right-wing parties in Britain, Canada, and Australia are busily adapting to the populist trend. Japan's Shinzo Abe has taken his conservative Liberal Party in a notably nationalist direction. And with Angela Merkel announcing her intention not to run for re-election, and her party anxiously watching the rise of the far-right Alternative for Germany, it's likely her conservative coalition will also begin sounding right-wing populist themes.\nWhat do these countries have in common? Where crime rates are soaring \u2014 like in Brazil, where rates of murder in particular have risen in recent years as a consequence of drug-related gang violence \u2014 the rise of the far-right is blamed on disorder. But Trump sounded similar themes in his rise to prominence, even though violent crime had only risen modestly off historic lows. In countries that recently experienced a surge of immigration, like Sweden, the rise is blamed on the associated cultural dislocation and an associated rise in crime and welfare dependency. But immigration is not a material issue in Poland or Hungary, and illegal immigration to the United States had actually reached historic lows in the years before Trump's campaign.\nIn many European countries, like Italy and Greece, the rise of the populist right is blamed on the tyranny of the Euro, and the brutal austerity which the ECB demanded in the wake of the financial crisis. But Germany benefited from the ECB's policies, and Britain was never part of the Euro. Meanwhile, notwithstanding their economic troubles, some countries with right-wing populist governments, like Israel and India, have been experiencing fairly robust real growth. Finally, while Putin is frequently blamed for the rise of the populist right in Europe and America, it is hard to credit any Russian interest in the fate of Brazil or plausible Russian involvement in the consolidation of power by Tayyip Erdogan in Turkey.\nThe breadth of the trend toward right-wing populism is most dramatically demonstrated when one considers recent political changes in China, which is not even remotely democratic and is subject to few of the forces usually cited as driving right-wing populism: economic stagnation, high crime, mass immigration, loss of sovereignty to transnational institutions, etc. Nonetheless, Xi Jinping rose to power in part on a call to fight corruption and strengthen the hand of the state (consistent themes of right-wing populists), and in office has relentlessly gathered power in his own hands (another feature of right-wing populists), turning the state ideology in a stridently nationalist and even ethno-nationalist direction.\nIt's enough to make one want to dust off one's Hegel, and explain the rise of the populist right as a kind of inevitable antithesis moving through the Weltgeist, a literal reaction to the post-Cold War thesis of liberal internationalism in foreign policy, progressivism in cultural politics, and globalism in finance. Or, alternatively, to dust off one's Marx and look for common changes in material conditions that might drive people in so many different cultures to an acute anxiety about order \u2014 accelerating urbanization, the collapse of village and family hierarchies, a global collapse in the power of labor relative to capital \u2014 and an acute distrust of the authorities that claim to maintain it.\nBecause that is the common thread that runs through all of these diverse cultural and political environments. Anxiety about order traditionally pushes the public to embrace parties of the right, who most credibly promise to restore order, whether we're talking about fighting crime or preserving a familiar culture. And anger at corruption and elite self-dealing quite naturally drive the public to punish established leadership and give newcomers a try, and to seek out newcomers who viscerally share their frustration. What is the commonality in contemporary conditions, around the world, that has made people in so many countries susceptible to both emotional impulses at once, and powered the global rise of the populist right?\nThat's the question that liberal democrats need to answer before they are completely swept away.",

        "title": "A Congress that Dared the Unthinkable: report on the First New Age Congress",
        "raw_content": "A Congress that Dared the Unthinkable\nReport on the First New Age Congress (Florence, 1978)\nPrinted in Transnational Associations, 1978, 5, pp. 266-270 [PDF version]\nSee also Emergence of Integrative Processes in a Self-reflective Assembly (Florence, 1978)\nand Introductory statement reproduced from the congress programme\nThis is a report on an extraordinary international event which took place in Florence (19-28 February 1978) under the name 'New Age Congress'. The Congress was unusual in so many ways that any conventional report can only contribute to the pattern of reflections around the event rather than producing a neatly ordered overview. Consider the 'confusion' surrounding the following points which are normally very clear for any conventional gathering:\nOrganizers: The 'organising committee' changed its nature, function and composition every week or so, from its origin in 1977 right up to and through the opening of the congress. It absorbed new individuals, who moved to Florence at various times prior to the event, in order to contribute in one way or another. This process, and the associated conflicts, was a traumatic experience for all concerned - but an experience recognised and accepted (with much difficulty) as necessary to the refinement of the vision of the nature of the congress. In most cases those attracted together in this way had neither met before nor been members of the same association and yet they all shared aspects of a deeply felt sense of commitment to a common but undefined purpose. It was accepted that each such individual had something unique to contribute to the organising process.\nTheme / Purpose ; The theme was only put into written form and distributed 7 weeks before the Congress and even then it was expressed in the most general terms:\n'We are coming together in Florence in February to explore, experience and celebrate human transformation. In that beautiful setting where flourished the first renaissance of modern times, the opportunity is being presented to facilitate and confirm the birth of a New Renaissance.\nYou are invited to participate as a co-equal, co-creative delegate in the colloquia and workshops, to experience the many presentations and associated events of this World Congress, which should prove to be an historic and unifying event.\nThe expansive work of all of the participants will be to consider the dimensions of the New Age, of the New Renaissance and of alternative futures. Participants will daily question, learn, congress and celebrate using the general principles of growth found in the processes and structures of Nature.\nLet us see with ever greater clarity that our planet is undergoing radical change out of which arises an impulse of creative synthesis. An all inclusive unitive power floods the feelings, thoughts, and motivations of attuned people everywhere, igniting a common vision of renewed organic earth. A new consciousness and the energy of a new dispensation for humankind is now emergent. The signs are everywhere. The pace of transition depends directly upon us. Wherever we are, there is that thing which it is appropriate for us to do, to hasten a new and better day'.\nIt is typical of the event, and of the attitudes of those involved, that the final introductory text used in the printed programme consisted of paragraphs extracted from a circular letter mailed independently by a person who had briefly visited the organising group in Florence -- after the above text had been distributed.\nFinance: At no time did the Congress have a well-defined budget. The main source of income was composed of gifts ranging from $ 4,000 to $58 from 17 individuals, and loans ranging from $ 2,500 to $ 500 from 8 individuals. An early budget estimate was $ 400,000, and the Congress was finally held on a budget of $ 40,000. New sources emerged just before disaster could have struck. Typically the down-payment for the meeting hall could only be paid one week before the Congress opened. The other main sources of income were registration fees (at $40 per participant, plus gifts) and film rights. The Congress ended with $24,000 debts which had to be cleared by the same process of individual commitment. Many of those most committed placed themselves personally in debt to make the Congress happen.\nPublicity: Circular mailings were first distributed only 2 months before the event. Publicity was severely restricted by shortage of funds for printing and postage, by lack of adequate mailing lists and by the well-known problems of the Italian postal system. Much was however accomplished by word-of-mouth and personal contact - despite the wider reverberations of the conflicts between those participating in the organising process.\nParticipants: At no period prior to the event itself was it at all clear how many people would be attracted to the Congress. Very early hopes were for 1,500, although it was believed by some that the event would be worthwhile even if only 60 people participated. The actual number was 300, of which over half were present for the full 10-day period. Oddly enough, although the majority of participants spoke English, the nationalities of participants were never a matter of interest. About 40% of the participants were of North American origin, although many were resident in Europe. Others were from most Western European countries and Yugoslavia with a significant number from the UK and Italy. The kinds of person participating are discussed below.\nResults: The organizing committee deliberately abstained from any attempt to define the results, if any, which would emerge from the congress process. Considerable effort was however put into the production of a documentary film (by professionals acting in a private capacity) based on the Congress and its environment with the expectation of distributing it through TV networks around the world. The degree to which the film could or would reflect the actual Congress was hotly debated with the consensus being that if would serve a useful purpose without completely conveying what really occurred or what was most meaningful to individual participants at the event. The film itself only came about because of a considerable personal financial commitment on the part of those directly involved, notably the actress Diane Cilento.\nIt so happened that the finances precluded recording speeches (except occasionally as part of film-making). There was no desire to push for recommendations declarations or resolutions. A book was planned by one of the organizers, Gus Jaccaci, containing contributions of some key resource people present but this does not attempt to reflect the heart of the congress process. No rapporteur was appointed or desired. A number of individuals present, including journalists, planned to report on the Congress in the light of their own experience and note-taking. This is one such report. It is as partial and subjective as the other attempts to reflect what occurred.\nOrganization-Programme\nA great deal of effort prior to the Congress was put into designing and organizing a tentative programme of lectures, plenary discussions, workshops and social events to the extent that this was possible, since even a week before the Congress it was not certain which key resource people were coming. Those involved were very sensitive to the need to make the gathering as participative as possible, benefiting from key resource people giving lectures, but avoiding the tendency to turn the Congress into a vehicle for 'superstars', particularly those anxious for ego-nourishment. It was repeatedly stated that each participant was a resource person and the problem was how best to focus those resources for the benefit of the whole. Suggestions were made in the program concerning discussion group formation by any participants.\nThe first day was organised in a highly participative manner as planned. Already however there was considerable pressure from key resource people to know when they were 'on'. The number of sign-up sheets for workshops (by 'middle-class' resource people), displayed on a single wall, rose quickly from 10 to 60 as competition for the attention of participants increased. The planned events for the second day were thrown into disarray when one of the key 'upper-class' resource people threatened to leave unless given a 3-hour plenary solo. This was done. And by the end of that day of excessive conventional structure, a core group of 'those sensitive to the scheduling problem' met to review how the schedule was to be balanced in the light of :\npressure from super-stars, particularly for long sessions,\ncommitments to super-stars (made by single individuals amongst the core group of organisers),\nthe participative emphasis of the congress and the desire not to over-organize.\nAt this meeting a compromise was reached to handle in parallel those participants having a preference for 'structure' (namely well-ordered lectures and workshops) or for 'process' (namely participative discussion and spontaneous workshops). This was implemented on the third day, during which the pressure on the scheduling office and the organising group continued to increase whether from unfulfilled super-stars or those wanting to give workshops in the limited space available. The difficulties were compounded by a hit-and-run 'super-stars' who could only be available for a plenary time-slot convenient to themselves before they had to leave.\nThese difficulties were presented to a plenary meeting on the fourth day (together with the issue of whether the Congress should, could or would support the position of North American Indians before the international community). This was the first occasion on which it was made clear to the Congress as a whole that it had a responsibility for deciding on its own scheduling priorities for the forthcoming days. However, each group responded in the light of its own interests.\nFor those who had expected a well-packaged series of events (which had never been the announced intent), the Congress was by now evaluated in such terms as: disorganised, discourteous to eminent speakers, too many leaders, lack of consensus, unfulfilled commitments, lack of adequate communication, etc. A number of participants and speakers had left as a result.\nPressure on the 'organising group' had reached boiling point by the evening of the fourth day. (The organising group continued to consist of a core of 8-15 people who felt strongly committed to the Congress as a whole. Because of the continuing dynamics amongst members of this diverse group, some were always absent from any particular meeting.)\nThe group was particularly concerned that it was concealing the reality of the whole, disguising its acute problems under a neat schedule of events to meet every taste, and taking authority in a manner which prevented participants from acting in a fully responsible manner rather than as simple consumers of available 'products'. Necessary administrative and other tasks were instigated in a very organic manner as the need was perceived by whoever in the core group was most sensitive to it as it emerged. Essential tasks of food preparation, cleaning, chair arrangement, registration, etc. were performed by volunteers or by some participants in repayment for a waived registration fee.\nThe situation was dramatically changed on the evening of the fourth day at a core group meeting held as a 'fishbowl event' in the middle of the plenary room (but with only 5-20 observers). After considerable discussion it was unanimously agreed that the meaning of the event in all its ramifications could best emerge if the core group ceased to 'organize and schedule' and just 'stepped back' in order for the Congress to become aware of itself as a whole. Instead of scheduling events for the following day or thereafter, it was simply agreed that one person would a 'focalize' a general meeting, if sufficient participants gathered together in the plenary meeting room on the following morning. It was agreed that even the registration desk would be manned in an unscheduled manner by volunteers responding to the need. Such volunteers explained the change which had occurred in case participants did not wish to register. The workshop sign-up sheets were to be removed from the display wall.\nOnce this decision was reached there was truly amazing expression of joy amongst those who had been responding frenetically to artificial pressures and needs which did not correspond to the values which had brought them together in search for new structures and processes. The 'organising group' dissolved itself with statements such as: 'At last we have a Congress'. The nature of the group's attitude to this decision at the critical moment it was taken is illustrated by the Zen tale told at that time:\nThree disciples of a Zen master were each asked to explain the nature of a beautiful ancient vase. The first and the second were each absent a year and returned with complex statements - which were rejected. The third smashed the vase with one blow - and thus achieved 'satori'.\nThe results of this decision are described separately Emergence of Integrative Processes in a Self-reflective Assembly (1978).\nThe previous section reflects only one level on which the Congress could be perceived. From first to last however it was a focus of many strange happenings perhaps the strangest being that it occurred despite the confusion from which it was born. The printed program carries the statement: 'Newly arriving delegates all have stories of self-sacrifice, curiosity and faith in coming to Florence'.\nIt was accepted by the original organising group, which at times barely had funds for its own food, that: 'Because of the ad hoc nature of the group of people working on this Congress and because of the spirit of the event itself, we have discovered that we could only receive that which we truly needed at any time and no more. These contributions of energy and vision, and gifts and loans of money were given from one person to another with a sense of personal trust and a hope for the common good'.\nAt times participants seemed to have come together mysteriously and magically 'because they thought they ought to be there', despite (or even because of) the lack of precision as to the nature of the Congress. The variety of participants was quite astounding.\nThere were: architects, physicians, healers, agriculturalists, artists, poets, dancers, biologists, disciples of a variety of sects and religions, psychologists, economists, educators, psychotherapists, historians, organic / whole food experts, intellectuals of a variety of persuasions (interested in sophisticated models of structures and processes), engineers, journalists, futurologists, philosophers, company executives, home-makers, members of communities of various kinds (e.g. Findhorn in Scotland), students, etc. However, despite this variety, participants were accepted and assessed on the spot as individuals, irrespective of their origins, occupations and roles which were seldom identified.\nTo add to the strangeness, there was an actor who (as part of the film production) demonstrated the role of the fool or clown in such gatherings. There was a street 'soul dancer' -- Brother Blue (with a Harvard degree) -- who functioned as 'court jester', most admirably clarifying brilliantly those points which occasionally needed emphasis, responding to moments of tension and representing in many ways the soul of the Congress. (Has this ever before been permitted and welcomed in an international plenary assembly ?) As might be expected there were also musicians, jugglers and magicians of various kinds. Needless to say the date of the event had been selected by astrologers, who were also present.\nThe setting of the meeting also contributed to the atmosphere. It was opened in the Palazzo Vecchio, once the centre of government of the Florentine Republic and now the city hall. The Congress was held in the Forte Belvedere - a huge construction with walls many feet thick in a star formation, built by the Medici at the beginning of the 17th century. This is located on a direct line between the Torre di Gallo (at Arcetri above Florence where Galileo carried out much of his work with the support of the Medici) and the Duomo cathedral in the centre of the city. It is overlooked on the opposite side of the Arno valley, by the town of Fiesole, a chief city of the Etruscan confederacy dating back to the 8th century B.C. later superseded by Florence.\nThe setting was used to point out the synthesis between the sciences and the arts which was a concern of the Congress. Many strange large-scale tubular 'crystals' were created on the surface of the Fort to aid those interested in a 'infinitizing' their awareness (Produced by: D.G. Langham. Genesa; an attempt to develop a conceptual model to synthesize, synchronize, and vitalize man's interpretation of universal phenomena, Fallbrook, Aero Publishers. 1969). Collectively they bore a striking resemblance to the array of antennae at the Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory next to the Torre di Gallo.\nIn this atmosphere participants quickly established contacts based on mutual trust and affinity. The level of tolerance and mutual acceptance was necessarily high with such a variety of people and interests. In many cases this was reflected in casual gestures of affection between people who were virtual strangers by normal standards. This supportive environment made it possible, for those who wished, to speak of their emotions or with tears in their eyes (even in plenary sessions). This occurred on a number of dramatic occasions and was accepted as a valid form of expression.\nIt is characteristic of the Congress that many participants experienced pain or discomfort in one form or another whilst there. Some had considerable transportation-related problems in getting there. Others suffered from odd physical pains. Many suffered emotional mental pain and frustration from the clash between their expectations and the realities of the Congress process. Egos were 'crushed' and it was accepted by the core group that to succeed they would individually have to 'get out of the way' of what needed to be achieved. Anyone who clung desperately to a particular structure or approach suffered. It was generally recognized that such experiences were beneficial. This meant however that each had to justify his or her own continued presence and contribution, since the support of others seldom matched the discomfort experienced.\nThe Congress was also experienced by many as a process of joyful personal transformation, whether accompanied by strange coincidences, symbolic dreams, visions, or personal re-assessments. Quite unemotional people openly declared that it had provided them with some of the most meaningful experiences they had encountered. The variety of elements ensured that the Congress was a 'complete experience' normally inaccessible to most because of habitual behaviour patterns.\nHowever, it is viewed, the Congress contained many of the elements from which myths are made and in some ways engaged itself in a myth-making process- if only because of the many ways in which it can be described and the lack of any written record.\nHarmonies of dramatic process\nOne contextual thread which was voiced on a number of occasions was that the Congress as a whole was a transformative process. In fact the stages of this process, derived from a synthesis presented there (G. Lock Land. Grow or Die: the unifying principle of transformation. New York Dell. 1973.), were over-printed on the program distributed to participants.\nThe succession of phases were labelled: accretive, replicative, mutualistic and transformative with each blending into the next over 2-3 day periods within the 10 days of the Congress. And indeed, even in the depths of crisis, it did appear as though the process was 'on schedule':\nIn the accretive phase there is an accumulation of elements with similar characteristics.\nIn the replicative phase, there is growth by influencing other elements to take on the form of the initiator.\nIn the mutual growth phase these is reciprocal interaction between the elements.\nThe transformative phase establishes a new system of order from which the sequence can be repeated at a new level.\nBut aside from the intellectual overview of the process, there was also an understanding among many that the moments of drama, of takeover attempts by different individuals and factions, of expressions of anger and mutual accusation, of leadership abdication, of ultimatums, etc. were all integral elements in a real and meaningful process. As the proceedings evolved, it was quite beautiful to observe how 'incompatible' factions in the Congress played off against each other or united in strange and moving harmonies. This occurs to some extent in most meetings but the variety of modes of expression considered valid on this occasion was unique. A plenary session which can move fluidly between: verbal exchange (whether intellectual or emotive), affective display, physical expression (as dance, movement or mime), ceremony and meditation, at any appropriate moment, is rich in dramatic possibilities particularly with a 'court jester' as catalyst.\nIt is only in terms of dramatic process and interplay that excessive enthusiasm or negativity could be appropriately handled and channelled by the Congress as a whole for the structures which are conventionally expected to handle such energies were themselves called into question, constantly modified and subjected to criticism. The collective challenge was to refine and improve the drama from its crude initial forms to one which could blend together all the elements present into a new and meaningful whole.\nThis should not be understood to imply that people and factions were playing artificial games with one another or that there was a lack of discipline of any kind. The dynamics were 'for real' and reflected attitudes that were sincerely held or genuinely felt. Tears (but not hysteria), a sense of despair, frustration and exhaustion were all frequent phenomena and some left when they could stand no more. It was however accepted by others that the Congress process should provide a 'crucible' within which the variety of elements could be blended and moulded into a 'chalice' as an expression of the whole.\nFeeding this collective awareness of a dramatic process were suggestions made by a number of people towards the end of the Congress that the process bore some resemblance to a breathing cycle (inspiration, expiration), to a succession of birth contractions, or to a nuptial ritual between 'yin' and 'yang' forces. There was a widely shared belief that the Congress was a birth process although any focus on what was to be born was avoided an attitude of expectancy was created.\nAnother understanding, shared to some degree, was that the Congress process was a double reflection:\nof processes between similar factions, forces and viewpoints in the outside world, and\nof processes and attitudes held in different ways within each individual present, especially including oneself.\nTo observe the process was therefore to observe both oneself and society as a whole. Any struggle for a greater harmony in one was seen as reflected in the others and reinforced by them. This made the Congress experience triply significant as one responded to the battle and balance between the old and new forms and contending forces. It was suggested that the transformation of the Congress could then also be seen as a transformative process for oneself and for society as a whole.\nHere-and-now focus\nIt was also very characteristic of many who made the Congress happen that there was a definite willingness to focus on the here-and-now. An extreme instance of this was the number of pew pie who had made no personal or professional plans for the period immediately following the Congress. They had risked much to make something happen in the present.\nAs the Congress evolved and conventional planning was abandoned, participants were obliged to focus on a moment-by-moment reality. New program elements were scheduled at very short notice in response to the needs of the moment. All the usual features of a congress were constantly called into a question, whether deliberately or through the lack of importance attached to them. Participants were encouraged to be self-reliant, to improvise and to take initiative if there was something they specially wished to achieve (e.g. give a workshop, show slides, etc.). In such a context it may well be asked what prevented the Congress from falling apart (or exploding !). The answer lies in the level of mutual trust, whether intuitive or affective, which by-passed individual differences and the lack of explicit consensus.\n(For a detailed report on the consequences of the organising group's decision to stand back, and on the process evolved by the plenary group, see pages 271-276).\nThe 'Court' Jester and 'Foolishness'\nThe Fool: an enigmatic catalyst The Joker: messenger from the unconscious\n'The fool who was sitting beside the fire, heard these words, leapt to his feel, came before the King, and skipped and danced for glee, saying: \"Lord King, so God save me, your adventures now begin, and often you will find them perilous and hard\" Perceval or the Story of the Grail\nThe court jester, the clown, the fool or the buffoon, is a mythic figure representing the inversion of the powers of the king (as the possessor of supreme powers) - or as his alter ego. He is therefore often the victim chosen in folklore as the substitute or foil for the king in rites whereby the people respond frankly and unceremoniously to such powers.\nCourt jesters were first recorded in the courts of the Egyptian pharaohs and were in vogue up until the 18th century in European courts, salons and taverns. They were often physically mishappen, if not also psychically disturbed. Ideally they were a powerful reminder of the distortion of the human condition - more immediate than the photographs disseminated via the media of today. Additionally, due to the freedom from censure and responsibility for their actions which they were accorded, they were able to mirror, parody and mimic court situations in such a way as to bring out truths which would otherwise be collectively and carefully ignored. They were often masters of song and dance, and could be a dramatic foil to pomp, superficiality and falsehood of any kind. As an ambiguous and often androgynous figure, the jester could function as a powerful social catalyst - for good or for ill, depending upon the response of those by whom he was surrounded.\nThe fool is an enigmatic symbol of the point of crisis when the normal or conscious appears to become perverted or infirm, and in order to regain health and well-being is obliged to turn to the dangerous, the irrational, the unconscious and the abnormal. As such, the fool is to be found on the fringe of all orders and systems, outside all conventional categories, processes and social rules. He is the bridge between the conscious and the unconscious (and between the attributes of the right and left hemispheres of the brain) - a reminder that, after having failed in our effort to order and understand the universe in the light of our intellect and instinct, there nevertheless remains another way.\nEliminating the jester from the court is as risky as allowing him to play his role. For, if 'foolishness' is not given a channel through which to express itself, it seeks its own channel anyway. Parliamentary and international assemblies, particularly those in which each is conscious of the high purpose and seriousness of his role, run a considerable risk of incorporating distortion into their proceedings and results because of an inability to accept what a jester would reveal. (Political cartoons offer a partial remedy, but they lack the significance of being accepted as part of the proceedings and thus have little affect on them.)\nIt requires greater maturity on the part of all participants, especially the chairperson and principal speakers, to play their parts in the face of such instant feedback. In the absence of children at international assemblies, who can say whether our international emperors wear any clothes?\nReferences on the court jester:\nJohn Doran. History of Court Fools.

        "title": "THEATER REVIEW: \"THE CLEARING\" \u2013 LAVENDER AFTER DARK (because life begins when the sun goes down\u2026)",
        "raw_content": "The title of Jake Jeppson\u2019s searing, highly original drama \u201cThe Clearing\u201d refers to a secluded, seemingly idyllic wooded area where two brothers have been periodically retreating for some \u201cbrotherly bonding\u201d for 18 years. It\u2019s a ritual between the pair that goes back to their childhood. As we learn, the location was also the origin of a dark, well-kept family secret which also goes back to their childhood. In one of the earlier scenes, the men have a contest to see which of them can throw a rock the farthest. One of them declares, \u201cThe loser TELLS her!\u201d Tells who? Tells what? It\u2019s a mystery, established early in the play, which keeps the audience wondering just what is going on beneath the surface. Something is clearly brewing.\nThose two brothers are Les and Chris. As dissimilar as they are in physical appearance, they are also just as different in their personalities. Les (Brian McManamon) \u2014 who is openly gay\u2013 strikes us as tightly-wound and emotionally shuttered. By contrast, Chris (Brian P. Murphy) comes off as a rambunctious teenager trapped in a burly man\u2019s body. At first, the audience sees Chris\u2019 antics as rather harmless\u2013 no different than the brand of loud wackiness that we\u2019ve seen in a generation\u2019s worth of R-rated movies marketed to 17-year old boys. (An example of his adolescent behavior is how he teases Les about his sexual preferences.) Chris jokes about having \u201carrested development\u201d\u2013 but as the play progresses, we suspect that his behavior may not be anything to laugh at. In other words, there may be some dark demons lurking within the man. (The pair\u2019s mother Ella, played wonderfully by Allison Daugherty, tellingly reminds Les, \u201cSilence from your brother is like the calm before the storm.\u201d) We also meet Les\u2019 new boyfriend, Peter (Gene Gallerano) \u2014 an earthy, charming photographer with a tendency to endearingly spout out self-help platitudes and Zen-like stuff such as, \u201cYou love me so much\u2026 So OWN that shit!\u201d The contrast between Les and his potential life partner is striking, and at times we wonder just what the free-spirited Peter sees in the more inhibited Les. At the same time, Peter also seems to be pushing Ella into a catharsis of her own. Later on, as the audience slowly discovers the VERY complex (and occasionally disturbing) relationship between the two brothers, we suspect that Peter might just be both Les\u2019 and Ella\u2019s salvation from the proverbial \u201cties that bind\u201d.\nDirected by Josh Hecht, \u201cThe Clearing\u201d boasts many superb and provocative performances from its dynamic four-actor cast. Daugherty, as the long-suffering family matriarch (\u201cYou get to this age, and everything closes for the winter.\u201d), and Gallerano (almost metaphysical in presence), are revelations. In any given moment, so much seems to be happening simultaneously in several planes of existence. In one pivotal scene, one of the characters (The one you\u2019d least expect, incidentally\u2026) gets completely naked on stage. It\u2019s clear symbolism for the truly bare emotions about to be displayed. The audience becomes truly mesmerized by the character\u2019s revelations, as we gain some long-sought insight into the family dynamics between Les, Chris, and Ella. The climax of the play is truly shocking, as well as truly unexpected\u2026 and ultimately, the answer to the big mystery which is hidden in \u201cthe clearing\u201d of the play\u2019s title becomes almost secondary. By the time the secret is about to be revealed to the one who needs to hear it the most, we as the audience have already learned (and seen) much more than we\u2019ve bargained for.\nThe World Premiere of \u201cThe Clearing\u201d takes place from January 15 \u2013 February 9 at\nTheatre at St. Clement\u2019s (423 West 46 St.) in NYC.

One thing led to another, and eventually the DJ offered him a job, and LB became a top Dallas party DJ! When you got it, you got it, right?\nLB has been entertaining ever since. He is incredibly engaging, charming, and easygoing. He truly loves people and music.\nCowboys, Mavericks, and Rangers!\nMr. John Legend\nEveryone has a first time, right? When I booked my first wedding, I was incredibly nervous. I really wanted the night to go well, not only for my career, but also for my bride and groom as well.

        "raw_content": "Robert Adler held 180 patents for electronic devices, whose applications run from the esoteric to the everyday. He was best known as the \"Father of the TV Remote Control.\"\nAdler was born in Vienna, Austria on December 4, 1913, and was educated there; his academic career culminated in his PhD in Physics at age 24 from the University of Vienna (1937). Soon thereafter, he emigrated to the U.S. and found work in the Research division of Zenith Electronics Corporation (then Zenith Radio Corporation).\nDuring World War II, Adler specialized in military communications equipment, including high-frequency oscillators and electromechanical filters for aircraft radios. Always one to see the broader applications of a specific technology, Adler later relied on this work, when in the 1960s he explored the use of surface acoustic waves in frequency filters for color television sets. Today, acoustic wave technology is essential to both television screens and touch-sensitive computer displays.\nAfter the war, Adler turned his attention specifically to television technology. One early invention of Adler's was the \"gated-beam\" vacuum tube, which eliminated a great deal of sound interference in television receivers at one stroke, thus reducing costs as well. Adler also led the team that invented a special synchronizing circuit that improved reception at the fringes of a television station's broadcast area. But Adler's greatest triumph was the wireless remote control.\nZenith's founder, Eugene F. McDonald Jr., had been convinced that what TV viewers wanted more than anything else was to be able to avoid commercials. Inspired by this theory, Zenith produced the first TV remote in 1950, dubbed \"Lazy Bones.\" It performed on/off and channel-changing functions fairly well, but was cumbersome to use, and was attached to the TV by a cord that soon proved a safety hazard to Zenith's less nimble customers. In 1955, Zenith produced the \"Flashmatic,\" a wireless remote that was basically a flashlight pointed at photo cells located at the corners of the TV cabinet. Unfortunately, the photo cells reacted to sunlight as well as the remote.\nRobert Adler's solution was for the remote to \"communicate\" with the TV by sound, not light - specifically, by ultrasound, that is, at frequencies higher than the human ear can hear. Adler's remote control unit itself was very simple: it did not even require batteries. The buttons struck one of four lightweight aluminum rods inside the unit, like a piano's keys strike its strings. The receiver in the TV interpreted these high-frequency tones as signaling channel-up, channel-down, sound on/off, or power on/off. The necessary 30% increase in cost was imposing to consumers at first, but there was no doubt about the popularity of the system.\nIn the 1960s, Adler modified his system to generate the ultrasonic signals electronically. Over the next twenty years, the ultrasound TV remote control was slowly becoming a standard adjunct to the television. By the time remote technology moved on to infrared light technology in the early 1980s, more than nine million TVs had been sold, by Zenith and others, with Adler's remote control system.\nBy 1963, Adler had risen to Vice President and Director of Research at Zenith; he was a technical advisor to the company until 1997.\nAdler also won countless prestigious awards, including the IEEE's Edison Medal (1980).\nAdler died on February 15, 2007.",

        "raw_content": "Educating children about important subjects and empowering them to make wise decisions can build trust and strengthen familial bonds.\nIt is generally much easier for young adults to become financially responsible when money matters are discussed openly and education begins early.\nYoung adults do not need to know the exact value of family assets to learn the basics of wealth management and become involved in the family\u2019s financial activities.\nStarting with basic concepts such as planning, investing, and philanthropy can pave the way for more detailed discussions down the road.\nResponsible children in their twenties and thirties may be ready to become full partners in your family\u2019s financial life.\nMany parents worry that sharing details about their family\u2019s finances with children in their twenties and thirties will reduce their motivation, just as they are launching their careers. Keeping grown, responsible children in the dark about family wealth can do more harm than good, however. The reason: It is generally much easier for young adults to become financially responsible when money matters are discussed openly and education begins early.\nHow can you educate your children without overwhelming them or revealing more than you would like? Young adults do not need to know the exact value of family assets to learn the basics of wealth management and become involved in the family\u2019s financial activities. To get started, outline the basic concepts you want them to learn. You might wish to include the following:\nFinancial planning. Every young person needs a basic framework to help them make responsible decisions about spending and saving. It is particularly important for children of affluence. While those of lesser means may base spending decisions on their financial resources, those with seemingly limitless resources may have difficulty deciding how much spending is appropriate. Consider asking one of your family\u2019s financial advisors to draw up a first financial plan for each child.\nInvesting fundamentals. A good place to begin an investing discussion is with an explanation of the three basic asset classes\u2014stocks, bonds, and cash\u2014 and the concept of asset allocation. If your children are already familiar with these topics, now is the time to introduce more complex ones, such as hedge funds and derivatives. Consider sharing some basic information about the structure of your family\u2019s portfolio.\nEstate planning basics. Because most estate plans include trusts, you might start there. A young adult should understand that a trust is an instrument created by a grantor (often parents or grandparents) and held by a trustee (often a financial institution) for a beneficiary (often children or grandchildren). To make this conversation relevant, you might begin by discussing the structure of any trust vehicles for which he or she is the beneficiary. If you wish to explain different types of trusts\u2014 such as dynasty or charitable trusts\u2014 it\u2019s usually a good idea to bring in advisors that can assist with the discussion.\nTaxes. It is crucial to communicate the importance of tax-efficient wealth management and the fact that the tax law landscape is ever changing. You can teach young adults about the investment and trust instruments that exist to help protect capital from erosion caused by taxes. Additionally, you might wish to explain recent changes in tax rates for earned income, capital gains, dividends, and estates.\nLegal concepts. It is imperative that affluent young adults understand the concept, and importance, of prenuptial agreements. It is easiest to have this conversation before a grown child meets his or her future spouse. Your young adult children are also old enough to begin learning about other basic contracts, such as partnership agreements for business ventures. The message: Make sure family members and advisors have a chance to review these documents prior to their execution.\nPhilanthropy. Although philanthropy is much more than a financial topic, it is important that young adult children understand the tax benefits they receive for giving and how philanthropy can be an integral part of estate planning. Beyond that, you might consider inviting your children to help lead your family\u2019s philanthropic efforts. If you have a private family foundation, consider asking your children to sit on the board. This can also be a great way to pass on family values and help them develop leadership skills.\nIf your children are still living at home, you can start addressing these topics during dinner or whenever you are together as a family. If your children are living on their own, consider scheduling a family retreat with your advisors. This gives you an opportunity to get together and allows younger family members to meet family advisors in a relaxed setting. Keep in mind that these conversations will be most successful when tailored to the age, interests, and knowledge of each child. If your daughter is studying to become an estate planning attorney, you might wish to share intricate details of your family\u2019s wealth transfer strategy. If your son is a social worker, he might be more interested in the family\u2019s philanthropic mission. And remember: These discussions are likely to reap rewards that are more than material. Educating children about important subjects and empowering them to make wise decisions can build trust and strengthen familial bonds.\nThis article is for informational purposes only and is not intended as an offer or solicitation for the sale of any financial product or service.

        "raw_content": "About CZ\nCZ Redhead Premier Review \u2013 Features\nCZ Redhead Premier Review: Safety and Reliability\nWe didn\u2019t have any problems, and those that did have problems had the weapons easily replaced by CZ\nIt\u2019s an over/under shotgun. It\u2019s as accurate as you can make it\nThe stock and grip are comfortably placed for the average shooter\nThere are flashier over/under shotguns available, but this has that classic look\nThere isn\u2019t much to add.. but do you really need to add anything at all?\nGreat value for the price, and it would excel in almost any use\nOvarall: This is a great shotgun, and will be a good purchase.\nIf you\u2019re short on time, what you need to know about the shotgun is this:\nIt is a high quality shotgun that offers great bang for your buck.\nIt is very sleek looking, and feels natural shooting it. It is strong and durable, and CZ has great customer service.\nThis is an excellent shotgun for hunting, and basic skeet and trap shooting.\nLooking for that classic over under shotgun? If you\u2019ve done any research at all, you know how difficult it can be to choose between the various over under shotguns available on the market. In this article, we will review one great option for you, the CZ Redhead Premier.\nIn case you\u2019re not familiar with CZ, we will give you a brief overview of the company. They are a Czech company, and have been around for about a century. Originally, they were started by members of the Austro-Hungarian army.\nAs the world changed throughout the years, CZ changed as well. Their headquarters moved a couple times, but they are now located in the Czech Republic. Their most well-known development is the Skorpion submachine gun, but they actually have created a few new innovations in the market.\nWhile they don\u2019t offer a huge variety of weapons, what they do offer is very high quality. If you are worried about customer service, they have a CZ-USA subsidiary, and their customer service in the US is phenomenal. If you aren\u2019t familiar with them, be sure to check them out next time you\u2019re shopping around for a new firearm!\nNow, onto our CZ Redhead Premier review. This shotgun is very sleek looking, and features classic over under styling. It has a Turkish walnut stock and grip, and the receiver has a satin chrome finish. As for the barrel, it has a black, glossy chrome finish.\nThe shotgun is available in 12 gauge and 20 gauge. In both gauges, you can choose between a 26 and a 28 inch barrel. The receivers are meant for up to three inch shotgun shells.\nWhen it comes to shooting, these shotguns are very smooth and reliable.\nThe size and weight are absolutely manageable, and the shotgun swings very smoothly. Tracking clays couldn\u2019t be any easier, especially with the large white front bead.\nOne thing that you will notice about this shotgun is how strong it is. This starts with the receiver, which is CNCed from one piece of solid metal to begin with. The next feature that adds into this are the independent auto-ejectors. This makes the shotgun very smooth and reliable, over and over again.\nThe biggest pro of this shotgun is the strength. We already talked about this, but the receiver, ejectors, and overall construction give this shotgun a very sturdy feel. When you shoot this, you know that you are shooting a solid piece of weaponry.\nWith this strength comes durability. All of these solid pieces will make sure that this weapon will last for a long time. There is no reason not to believe that this shotgun will last for thousands upon thousands of rounds.\nMaintaining this shotgun couldn\u2019t be any easier. It is very easy to break down and clean.\nWhile we recommend doing this after every time you shoot it, at the end of the day, it is a shotgun. They are very reliable and can withstand a little bit more abuse than rifles and handguns.\nIf you ever do run into any issues with it though, CZ\u2019s customer service is excellent, as we mentioned earlier. A simple call to CZ-USA will resolve nearly any problem. They will work with you, and will replace the entire weapon if need be. You can have peace of mind with this purchase, knowing that CZ will support you.\nThis shotgun has a manual tang safety that is very easy to use.\nThe shotgun will be as safe as you are with it. As far as reliability is concerned, it is a very durable and reliable weapon, as we mentioned before.\nThe reliability of this shotgun is one of our favorite features. This will work for years, over and over again.\nWhen you buy this shotgun, you are getting a great bang for your buck. However, it really doesn\u2019t come with anything other than the weapon itself. In terms of upgrades, there\u2019s nothing internal to the weapon that we would recommend upgrading, but a sling would be an accessory worth looking into, especially if you are going to hunt with the weapon.\nThis is a great shotgun for the money, like we\u2019ve said. However, that doesn\u2019t mean that it is a home run for every type of use.\nIn our opinion, this is a great all-purpose shotgun.\nIt would serve well for hunting and shooting clay pigeons alike. However, if you are going to focus heavily on just one of those things, you can probably find a better shotgun for you.\nFor example, if you are a big time hunter, you may want a lighter shotgun to carry around with you all day.\nIf you are a very competitive skeet and trap shooter, you may want a shotgun that is aimed more specifically at competition shooting.\nHowever, with that said, this shotgun does perform very well at both of these things. Many people shoot competitions with CZ Redhead Premiers, and succeed in doing so. Similarly, this shotgun has taken many birds on hunting trips. If this is at the top of your budget, it is a great value for the price.\nWhile there are better shotguns available, this is a more than ready weapon for any type of shooting. You will not regret the purchase. We hope our CZ Redhead Premier review was helpful!\n1 thought on \u201cCZ Redhead Premier Review \u2013 The Best Bang for your Buck in an Over/Under Shotgun\u201d\nAngelo N Coppolo\nJuly, 2018 at 10:11 pm | Reply\nare the barrels lined in chrome for steel shot?",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Fires of Vesuvius ~ A Capsule Book Review\nThe Resurrection Day \u2192\nTranscendence ~ A Capsule Movie Review by Allen Kopp\nTranscendence has all the elements of a summer movie and it isn\u2019t even summer yet: a one-word title, a big-name movie star (Johnny Depp) and a fast-paced techno plot with plenty of action. Johnny plays Dr. Will Caster (a part that almost any actor could have played). Dr. Caster works in the field of artificial intelligence. He and his team (including his wife, Evelyn, and his best friend, Max) are working on a computer system so advanced that it far surpasses human capabilities. The potential for helping mankind, curing illnesses, healing the planet, etc., are staggering. The one problem they can\u2019t seem to figure out, though, is how to make the AI system \u201cself-aware.\u201d\nA radical group wants to end the study of artificial intelligence, believing it has the potential to bring about the end of the human race, and murders some of the researchers. When Dr. Caster is shot, the gunshot doesn\u2019t kill him, but it seems the bullet that entered his body was treated in some way to cause him radiation poisoning. He has only a short time to live. Before he dies, though, he will \u201cupload\u201d his consciousness into the computer system, providing the missing element of self-awareness that has hitherto been lacking. His fellow researchers, Evelyn and Max, are complicit in this plan. Evelyn sees it as a way for Dr. Caster to live on after his physical body has died. Max is more skeptical.\nSo, Dr. Caster is dead but his intellect and consciousness live on in the sophisticated, highly advanced artificial intelligence computer system. His wife is delighted at first that she can still talk to him and interact with him, but after a couple of years she sees where the whole thing is headed: he has a god complex. He believes he is so far superior to \u201csimple organic\u201d life (meaning humans) that he comes to see himself (the computer system) as the future and the human race as a thing that is completely unnecessary. He is sort of a modern-day Dr. Frankenstein in that he ventures into an unknown place where man is perhaps better off not to go.\nTranscendence is engaging enough (more in the first half than in the second) for what it is, but there\u2019s nothing unique about it. It\u2019s in the cookie cutter mold of American movie making. There are other movies with the same look and feel. Now that summer is coming on, there will be lots of them because they make a ton of money and then are quickly forgotten until they turn up on TV.\nPosted in Uncategorized and tagged Allen Kopp, capsule movie review, Transcendence.

        "title": "Those Who Teach \u2013 Losing Your Marbles",
        "raw_content": "Those Who Teach\nIf you read my post In The Beginning, you may remember how I was called into youth ministry. It happened somewhat suddenly.\nI was presented with an opportunity to help out on a youth retreat one weekend, and ended up loving it. A few months prior to that, God was working very actively in my life. There was a lot of cutting away and refining happening, but I didn\u2019t know for what. I now realize that He was preparing me for the leadership role in youth ministry that I have been called to.\nThis chance to teach a lesson came about in a similar manner. About a month ago, I noticed myself becoming increasingly interested in the idea of teaching a lesson at some point.\nI became more observant of how my pastor presented his messages, and the tools and illustrations incorporated in them. I began thinking to myself, \u201cThat would be a fun thing to try.\u201d\nNow, I don\u2019t consider myself a great speaker, or a great writer, or a great putter of thoughts together\u2026er, but I do know that God has me in a position of leadership, and has been faithful to give me the right words when I discuss things with my high school guys.\nSo, when my youth pastor presented the chance to teach one Sunday night, I was a little hesitant at first, but I felt that God was giving me a trial run, just like he did a year ago with the retreat. So, I picked a night to speak and asked the youth pastor what he wanted me to talk about. He responded with \u201cWhatever you want.\u201d\nIf I didn\u2019t think the task was daunting enough, he wanted me to come up with my own lesson, which was exciting and terrifying at the same time. So I prayed and prayed and eventually came up with the topic of God\u2019s grace (pretty basic I know, but c\u2019mon, it\u2019s my first time). I used the illustration of God\u2019s grace toward Peter, despite all of his shortcomings including the three denials.\nPreparation was incredibly nerve-wracking. I was trying to get a solid lesson together as well as finish all of my homework (also due Sunday night. Go figure.). But, I was able to get everything done, practiced a few times, and then it was here\u2026 Sunday night.\nI think that it went about as well as I thought it would. I was pretty nervous, but that was to be expected. Even after 3 years of high school theater, I still get stage fright. I delivered my talk fairly smoothly and I didn\u2019t get off track or skip over anything. I personally felt that I was talking too fast but the youth pastor and my dad both assured me afterwards that I did fine.\nThe next day, however, I was still feeling\u2026 off about the whole situation. I knew God had placed this opportunity before me, but I wasn\u2019t feeling too confident about it. I was starting to doubt whether or not I should continue teaching, especially since I\u2019ve never been great at it.\nI had worries floating through my head. \u201cDid I get through to the students?\u201d \u201cDid I make sense?\u201d \u201cAre they going to take anything significant away from it?\u201d\nI almost felt like I was trying to be something I\u2019m not. I\u2019m sure a lot of that can be attributed to first time jitters, and a little bit of Satan trying to get in my head, so I tried not to dwell on those thoughts.\nLater that morning, I read my daily encouragement/devotional email that I get from one of the Passion speakers, Christine Caine, which thankfully dispelled all of my doubts and made me feel a whole lot better about the previous night.\nIn him we were also chosen \u2026 according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will \u2026 (Ephesians 1:11).\nGod has positioned us exactly as He wanted to, with gifts and talents for the purpose of serving this generation. No matter what your age or circumstances are, YOU have a purpose! You may have woken up today feeling finite, but can I remind you of something? We serve an infinite God who wants to work in and through us.\n\u2013 Christine Caine\nI took this as affirmation that this was what God wanted me to do. All of the worries and doubts that I was feeling were understandable. I mean, I\u2019m new at this and don\u2019t have much of an idea of what I\u2019m doing.\nHowever, I do know that the things I was worrying about are out of my control and in His hands. It\u2019s not up to me whether or not God speaks to the students through my lesson. Jesus said in John 7:16, \u201cMy teaching is not my own. It comes from the one who sent me.\u201d\nIf that is His will, then it will happen, regardless of how well I teach or how fast I talk. All I need to worry about is listening to what He has to say to me, and trusting everything in Him.\nIt\u2019s still a learning process, trying to follow what God has planned for me. It\u2019s requiring a lot of faith, but it\u2019s exciting nonetheless.\nAnd I do know this. I loved preparing a lesson for these students. I found myself looking forward to finishing homework so I could run out to my favorite coffee shop, sit down with God, and work on this with Him. And I\u2019m definitely going to continue looking for opportunities to teach.\nPosted in PostTagged calling, faith, growth, leader, praying, preaching, teaching, youth ministryBy PaulLeave a comment\n\u2190 Passion: Sing Alleluia\nPassion: Christine Caine \u2192",

        "raw_content": "LUMS Faculty Members Win Shahid Hussain Foundation Grant Taking the University\u2019s Vision to Tangible Heights\nThe Shahid Hussain Foundation (SHF) recently announced the selected projects under the Public Health Research Grant 2018 (PHRG) of PKR 4 million. Three teams from LUMS have won PKR 3 million in grant awards. These were led by Dr. Agha Ali Akram, Department of Economics and Dr. Sameen Mohsin Ali, Department of Humanities and Social Sciences (Political Science), housed at Mushtaq Ahmad Gurmani School of Humanities and Social Sciences and Dr. Shaper Mirza, Department of Biology at the Syed Babar Ali School of Science and Engineering.\nSHF, a Lahore-based organisation working to support education and health access in Lahore, launched the Public Health Research Grant 2018/19 to support innovative research in Pakistan. This was an exciting research opportunity for multi-disciplinary academic and professional teams affiliated with LUMS and/or Shalamar Institute of Health Sciences (SIHS) working in the subject of public health, health policy, and socio-economic research.\nLUMS proudly worked in collaboration with the SHF as it envisions to be a research university dedicated to serving society through world-class education and social responsibility. The SHF Grant was definitely a unique opportunity for both partners to work together in this collective mission to serve the people of Pakistan and work towards a thriving society with improved health outcomes, life expectancies and disease prevention.\nThe LUMS faculty-led selected projects for the PHRG 2018 following a competitive application and review process included: \u201cUnderstanding Pakistan\u2019s Immunization Problem: A transactional approach\u201d by Dr. Sameen Mohsin Ali at LUMS and Dr. Samia Altaf; \u201cInvestigation of hyperglycaemia mediated inflammation on risk of cardiovascular disease in type 2-diabetes\u201d, a collaborative research project by Dr. Shaper Mirza from the Department of Biology, LUMS and Dr. Bilal bin Younas from the Diabetic Center, SIHS and \u201cA randomized controlled trial to assess effectiveness of the in-home Growth Monitoring Tool (GroMoTo) in addressing childhood stunting,\u201d another collaborative research project by Dr. Agha Akram Ali at the Department of Economics, LUMS and Dr. Hina Khalid at ITU.\nDr. Ali, PhD in Politics from SOAS, University 2018 with teaching and research interests in patterns of bureaucratic appointment, electoral and party politics, election management, and the bureaucracy's interaction with the legal system said, \u201cMy co-PI Dr Samia Waheed Altaf (Affiliated Research Fellow, Dean\u2019s Office MGSHSS) and I wish to thank the Shahid Hussain Foundation for this grant to investigate both the supply and demand sides of the immunisation problem in Punjab. We hope to understand not only the reasons for vaccine refusals in our selected districts but to provide a fine-grained analysis of the planning and implementation, successes and failures of immunisation policy.\u201d\nMeanwhile, \u201cThis grant opportunity will allow us to explore an important relationship between diabetes and heart disease. Using a multidisciplinary approach our goal is to understand how inflammation, a characteristic of type 2-diabetes lead to heart disease. The study will identify biomarkers that will be used for developing therapies to reduce inflammation thereby reducing the risk of comorbidities, such as heart disease in type 2-diabetes\u201d, commented Dr. Mirza, a recognised researcher in the areas of molecular pathogenesis and author of several papers in high impact factor journals.\n\u201cWe are delighted to have been selected to receive this grant. Our research will try to understand why so many Pakistani children are stunted. Specifically, we will look at the role of providing caregivers in resource constrained settings information on their children\u2019s growth trajectory, i.e. child anthropometric information, such as weight for age and height for age, on child anthropometric outcomes. We are testing our hypothesis with a randomised controlled trial in an urban slum setting in Karachi,\u201d said Dr. Akram on the grant.\nThe Research Grant is a unique effort to undertake projects with local funding, comprises of local research teams and experts, and conducts research within Pakistan (local subject). This in an effort to foster a culture of localised research and learning, to provide an understanding of the complexities within the Pakistan health sector and offer viable solutions for a strong and sound health policy.\nThe areas of research for this grant included, social determinants of health, healthcare and health promotion among vulnerable groups, time-series analysis of lifestyle choices and onset of diabetes, BP and heart disease, urbanisation and health, new approaches to understanding and reducing infectious diseases in Pakistan, health leadership \u2013 decision-making and autonomy in Pakistan\u2019s healthcare and heart-disease and blood pressure - trends in Pakistan.",

        "raw_content": "Why is Criminal Justice Reform a Legislative Focus in 2017/18?\nLWVMA Asks Conference Committee for Strong Criminal Justice Reform Bill\nDid you know? Facts about criminal injustice in Massachusetts\nHere are some organizations in addition to LWVMA working on criminal justice reform in Massachusetts.\nIn the 1970\u2019s and 1980\u2019s the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts developed strong positions on our courts and corrections systems (1972-74, 1983-85); since then, however, our rate of incarceration has more than tripled. Nationally, we incarcerate nearly 1 of every 100 adults in prison or jail, which is 5 to 10 times higher than other democracies. And this burden falls disproportionately on young minority men, the impoverished, the mentally disabled, or those with drug and alcohol addictions. This increase was not due to more criminality in the public but was due to policy changes. It is our responsibility to undo these policy failures and now is the time.\nIn 2015, Governor Charlie Baker, Chief Justice Ralph Gants, House Speaker Robert DeLeo, Senate President Stan Rosenberg, and Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito invited the Council of State Governments to study our criminal justice system in Massachusetts and report on recommendations for legislative changes in January of 2017. Although the focus is on reducing recidivism there are many other aspects of reform that need to be addressed to be comprehensive. The League is likely to support the proposed legislation that comes out of this process, but we will also need to continue to support legislation that is not included in the CSG bill.\nIn the 2015/16 legislative session, the Commonwealth passed new opioid legislation which focuses on treating opioid addiction primarily as a health issue rather than an issue of criminality. The League of Women Voters of Massachusetts supported legislation so that driver\u2019s licenses are not automatically suspended for any drug offense not related to driving. Fixing this law enables these returning citizens to become productive members of society. We need to continue to assist our most vulnerable individuals in their steps to lead productive lives once their appropriate debt to society has been paid.\nThis session the League will continue to support bills to eliminate mandatory minimums, to increase the felony larceny level from $250 to a more reasonable level (like $2500 as in Texas), for pretrial and bail reform, for restorative justice, for presumptive parole, to restrict segregation or solitary confinement, and to expunge the records of persons falsely accused and juveniles. We are also considering supporting legislation addressing the overuse of fines and fees, so we don\u2019t have \u201cdebtor\u2019s prisons\u201d, and medical release of the seriously ill or elderly.\nIf you would like to learn more about criminal justice reform nationally or in Massachusetts, we have compiled a list of resources for all levels of interest. If you are new to the issue and want an overview, check out the books listed in (1) or watch a program or listen to a podcast in (2). To see the data for yourself or keeping up with the latest information, use the sources in (3). For more in depth reporting on Massachusetts, see the resources in (4). And for in depth reporting on specific topics you can start with some of the information in (5). And if your local League would like to learn about these bills, Colleen Kirby would be happy to give an informal talk on what we are focusing on for the 2017/18 session.\nBy Colleen Kirby, LWVMA criminal justice legislative specialist\nThese facts about the criminal justice system in Massachusetts illustrate the need for reform.\nTwo-thirds of Massachusetts residents prefer that fewer people are sent to jail instead of building new prisons.\nOf the 23,000 people in the Massachusetts correctional system, 5,000 are held awaiting trial and many cannot be released because they cannot afford to pay bail.\nMassachusetts confines individuals for longer stays now than for similar offenses in 1990.\nOnly Massachusetts and Arkansas segregate individuals in solitary confinement for up to 10 years for disciplinary infractions. Most states limit solitary to months.\nFrom the state\u2019s own prison data, as of January 2015, 95% of males incarcerated were serving a sentence longer than three years, yet one-third had not committed a violent offense.\nThe average cost per year is $53,040.87 to house a prisoner in Massachusetts.\n97% of all Massachusetts prisoners are eventually released.\nPeople of color make up roughly 20% of the Massachusetts population yet comprise on average 77% of drug offenders sentenced to mandatory minimums each year, despite the fact that all races use drugs at the same rate.\nOne in 100 American adults are locked up, and our incarceration rate is about ten times higher than that of most European countries. Of the 2.3 million people in prison and jail today, nearly 40% of them are African-American. One in 15 black children and one in 42 Latino children has a parent in prison, compared to one in 111 white children.\nIf you or your League wish to take action on criminal justice reform, please contact Colleen Kirby and Carolyn Lee at specialists@lwvma.org.\nEnd Mass Incarceration Together (EMIT ) Dedicated to end mass incarceration in Massachusetts\nUUMassAction. One priority is to end mass incarceration in Massachusetts\nMassachusetts Harm Reduction & Drug Law Reform Caucus.

Polls also show a majority of people to be in favour of the legislation.\nThe Bill will enable same sex couples in England and Wales to marry in both civil ceremonies, and religious ceremonies where a religious institution has formally consented to undertake it. The Bill will also allow existing civil partnerships to be converted into marriages, if the couple so wishes.\n\u201cI am absolutely ecstatic that we are now set to realise this historic reform, towards which I have worked passionately for many years.\n\u201cMarriage is fundamentally about expressing love and commitment, and as a Government I believe it is our duty to help everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, to realise that expression.\n\u201cEqual marriage is an established Liberal Democrat policy, and I am exceptionally proud to have helped implement it as a Liberal Democrat Minister.\u201d\nOn awarding Lynne Featherstone MP \u2018Politician of the Year\u2019 in 2012, Attitude Magazine said:\n\u201cLynne Featherstone has been the face of the coalition\u2019s pledge to introduce equal marriage reforms.\n\u201cThe MP for Hornsey and Wood Green has been vociferous in her support for the LGBT community, and the government\u2019s promise to deliver same-sex civil marriage rights.\u201d\nAdrian Trett, chair of LGBT+ Liberal Democrats, said:\n\u201cI hope Tuesday will be a watershed day for equality, where a process will start which will end in the recognition of all loving marriages being equal whatever the genders of the couple.

        "title": "Letters: Misinformation, redundancy, and regret | San Diego Reader",
        "raw_content": "Letters: Misinformation, redundancy, and regret\nHelping a Trivial Number\nRe: News Ticker, \u201cTake a Hike, Bikers\u201d\nThe attempt by Little Italy\u2019s Business Improvement District to preserve parking spaces rather than allocate street space for bike lanes through the heart of the community would be much easier if we had a mayor more interested in helping the vast majority of San Diegans than in working to help a trivial number of bicyclists take over part of our roadways throughout San Diego.\nMayor Faulconer and Todd Gloria have both worked to close down entire streets to cars, and to close lanes on other streets. They want to get rid of parking spaces in order to aid a small number of people on bikes. These actions would not just harm businesses, inconvenience the vast majority of San Diegans, and cause congestion, they would also increase greenhouse gases because congestion increases car emissions.\nLet\u2019s remember during the next election that we need a mayor and city council members who will work to help the overwhelming majority of San Diegans, not just the handful who want to ride their bicycles in automobile lanes and have parking spaces removed just for their convenience.\nStill a Great Piece\nRegarding the piece by Liz Swain (Neighborhood News, \u201cHand-Dredged History\u201d), the equipment pictured is an excavator, not a loader. The difference is that the loader can only reach out, while the excavator can reach more and can reach down as well. The excavator is used for trenching (among other things), while the loader usually works to clean up and load bulk materials.\nStill, a great piece by Liz Swain.\nAlthough I\u2019m not always enamored with the content of Barbarella\u2019s column, I have always admired her command of the English language and writing ability. I was shocked and disappointed to see this week\u2019s article entitled \u201cJudgerella\u201d (Diary of a Diva, March 10) in which she wrote, \u201cAt 7 a.m. that morning ...\u201d Was she differentiating between 7 a.m. in the evening?\nBarbarella, are you familiar with the word redundant?\nLegs Down Inside\nDaniel Powell indicates that a 200-year-old engraving is of paddleboarders (\u201cSUP with Your Pup,\u201d Waterfront, March 10). It\u2019s actually people paddling outrigger canoes, which is still practiced.\nIf you look closely, you\u2019ll notice that you can\u2019t see the paddler\u2019s lower legs, since they are down inside of the canoe, not on top of the deck as they would be on a paddleboard.\nGerry Rahill\nPaddleboarding is done from a prone position \u2014 what surfers do 99 percent of the time in order to catch a wave. Though there were paddleboarders in the engraving, there were no stand-up paddleboarders. \u2014 Editor\nRe: Everyone\u2019s a Critic, March 10, \u201cBowie\u2019s Blackstar Closes the Curtain\u201d\nThe thought of a Bowie-less world is too absurd, too tragic, and as near as unfathomable a thought as I\u2019m ever likely to have. Ground control gave us no warning, no commencing countdown, no nothing. We went to bed secure of our tomorrows and woke up to an empty house.\nMen like David Bowie aren\u2019t supposed to die. Ever. Men like Bowie? Nah. David Bowie was one of a kind, much like Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Steve Marriot, Keith Moon, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Bonzo, Lemmy, and a few others that I\u2019m no doubt forgetting as the reality of the day takes hold, as I hear the world carry on a few yards from my window, as I wipe whatever is left of my tears on the sleeve of my robe.\nFor a man known for changing at the speed of a chameleon, he offered great stability to millions, my father, my mother, and my best friend (all rolled into one) from another world. His impact on the arts is unquestionable, his impact on his fans perhaps greater. Time after time, decade after decade, David Bowie lifted me, lifted us through his music often without us being aware of it until whatever was the source of our disappointment had long passed.\nBowie was there before any of us, and Bowie will be there long after any of us have left this mortal coil \u2014 but you have known that since forever. Forever, huh? Forever. Forever, little wonder, you little wonder, little wonder us.\nDavid Bowie fell to Earth a long time ago. On a Sunday night, he went home.\n\u201cLook up here, I\u2019m in heaven,\u201d David says.\nWhere else would you be, sweet Prince ?\nRe: March 3 feature story, \u201cWorld War I Refought in San Diego\u201d\nYour writer indulgently featured an intellectual slacker whose take on the causes of World War I is wrong both on a pair of rudimentary political facts and on the scholarship about the war during the last 100 years.\nThe reporter shares in the intellectual recklessness by giving the claims so much play, uncritically. The criticisms in this letter only pertain to these two persons. They do not pertain to either the local Meetup.com club that the interviewee belongs to, or to other individual club members.\nThe interviewee is wrong in proposing that Serbia wanted to \u201cbecome free of the Austro-Hungarian Empire,\u201d because (1) Serbia had already gained its sovereignty four decades earlier (by stages, in 1867 and 1878); and (2) Serbia had not been a possession of Austria-Hungary, but rather, for 500 years it was part of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey). Yeah, one could argue that the claim contains a grain of truth, in that Serbia wanted to expand its territory (Serbia wanted to annex Bosnia, for example), and the Austro-Hungarian territories it coveted had large populations of ethnic Serbs.\nNext, the interviewee thinks it\u2019s a novel idea that Germany was not the major aggressor in this war (or the reporter makes him seem to think so). This is all balderdash. The gripe is incoherent because it recognizes the conventional wisdom that Europe was primed for war, and an accidental spark set it off.\nRe: \u201c\u2018Most history writing today,\u2019 says Firl, \u2018especially academic history, does a lousy job of understanding the past.\u2019\u201d Especially academic history writing? This insults the reader\u2019s intelligence. If by \u201cacademic\u201d history writing was meant history written by history professors for history professors, not for the broad public, then we can be confident that \u201cacademic\u201d historiography is less biased than \u201cnonacademic\u201d historiography, not more? It is absurd to claim that 100 years after the war, no new arguments against Germany have emerged.\nLastly, the general concept that other parties to the conflict share the blame has been widely espoused for the last half century by some British historians, as an interested person would quickly learn if they looked for it; I recommend Wikipedia\u2019s entry, \u201cHistoriography of the causes of World War I.\u201d American historian Sidney Fay (1876-1967) had pioneered this assessment in a 1928 book that won a historians\u2019 prize. And British historian Niall Ferguson published The Pity of War, which skewered the British foreign secretary for supposedly dragging his country into the war, back in 1999.\nOn the other hand, there are fresh arguments implicating Germany as a prime instigator, for example in the following two landmark books: German historian Fritz Fischer\u2019s (1908-1999)Germany\u2019s Aims in the First World War (1967; the German original 1961; the English edition boasts introductions by a leading German historian and a leading British historian) and British historian Paul M. Kennedy\u2019s The Rise of the Anglo-German antagonism, 1860-1914 (1980).\nIn addition, World War I history buffs who feel aggrieved on Germany\u2019s behalf and who are college educated (therefore, they are supposed to already know how to do research) and have lots of leisure time should not ignore the German language Wikipedia entries, Kriegsschuldfrage and Fischer-Kontroverse.\nYour writer followed the same coddling modus operandi five years ago in writing about theory of relativity denialists (entitled: \u201cEinstein, That Clown: Special Relativity Refuted at Bull\u2019s Smokin\u2019 BBQ\u201d).\nDale Chock\nIn your February 25 cover story, \u201cThe Glamour Track Is Mountain Lion,\u201d there is a huge piece of misinformation on the first page of the article in standout lettering: \u201cIt\u2019s estimated that there are 4000 to 6000 mountain lions roaming San Diego County.\u201d\nThe experts on that, bioligists, their best estimate is that there are maybe 3000 mountain lions in the whole state of California. So, that\u2019s a huge piece of misinformation.\nYou\u2019ve got to get it out to your readers that that was way off base.\nJack Seileman\nWe ran a correction in last week\u2019s issue. We still regret the error. \u2014 Editor\nI love your Roam-O-Rama articles and follow many of your hikes. Currently, I read the article, look at the sketched route, and try to find and trace the route on Google Earth.\nOne suggestion that would definitely help me, and I\u2019m sure many of your readers: In place of or in addition to the sketched route you include at the end of each article, it would be great if you included a download of the actual route \u2014 either from Google Earth or a .kmz file that can be read my many GPS apps.\n9/11 Pentagon theories abound \u2014 Aug. 10, 2016\nObjections to last week's cover story \u2014 Aug. 3, 2016\nDear Mr. Smiechowski \u2014 May 18, 2016\nErudite readers write in \u2014 March 9, 2016\nLetters from A to the back page \u2014 Jan. 27, 2016\nRe: helping a trivial number\nYou do realize bicycles of some form have existed for around 200 years? Much longer than the automobile you seem to prize so much. Little hint, they're not going away either. Long after you and I are gone there will still be bikes ridden in this city. You cite only a \"handful\" of citizens use bikes and in comparison to cars that might be a fair estimate. So, why would you think the bicycle lobby has any more pull or impact than the auto industry?...Could it be that educated rational people from both major political parties are able to see the benefits of diversifying ones personal transportation to mitigate it's impact. Also, the most obvious reason, it's fun to ride a bike! A lot of San Diego citizens live here to get as much fun in their life's as possible, can you blame them (me). They often value projects that promote being outdoors doing active fun things more than building better roads and parking lots. Maybe our city is changing for the better, but you can't see it through that dirty windshield....",

        "raw_content": "Reviewed by Ana Rosa Blue\nTITLE: Fundamentals of Collection Development and Management, Fourth Edition\nAuthor: Peggy Johnson\nPublisher: ALA Editions\nPrice: $85.00 | ALA Members: $76.50\nISBN: 13 978-0-8389-1641-4 (softcover)\nSource: ALA Store\nPeggy Johnson describes her book Fundamentals of Collection Development and Management (fourth edition) as \u201ca comprehensive introduction for students, a primer for experienced librarians with new collection development and management responsibilities, and a handy reference resource for practitioners as they go about their day-to-day work.\u201d Indeed, those tasked with collection development and management and those responsible for securing, managing, or analyzing company data will find many topics in this book relevant to their work.\nJohnson, an adjunct professor in the Graduate School Library and Information Science Program, St. Catherine University, Saint Paul, Minnesota, has more than 30 years of experience in U.S. universities and therefore writes largely from that perspective. Nevertheless, her narrative does weave examples from public, school, and special libraries to make her points, and she sprinkles in some international practices as well. In an ALA Editions blog interview, Johnson says she consulted other librarians in preparation for this edition. The result is a thoroughly researched book that encompasses building and managing library collections regardless of format, genre, or origin.\nThe author begins with a history of how collection development and management evolved as a specialty within the profession in public, academic, and special libraries. She writes that librarians who provide the highest quality materials to users are \u201carbiters of quality,\u201d a description this reviewer believes could apply to \u201call information professionals\u201d as well. Johnson\u2019s book will resonate with information professionals in other settings because she has an appreciation for the significance of managing legacy print collections. If your organization has a combined library, archives and/or records center, this book will be useful.\nThe notion of amalgamating libraries with archives is not new. For example, according to Dr. Guy Berthiaume, librarian and archivist of Canada, in 2004 Canada was one of the first countries to combine its national library and national archives. Glenstone, in Maryland, has integrated its library, archives, and museum collections into one information management system. More recently, \u201c50 Things You Can Do\u201d to support collections as data was published, by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Any one of those 50 \u201cthings\u201d could apply beyond a library setting. There is no doubt that collections and acquisitions managers are dealing with similar issues, regardless of what the collection is or how it was obtained.\nAcquisitions/collections professionals have a wide breadth of responsibilities in addition to the selection and acquisition of materials. For example, collections are searchable through finding aids or cataloguing. Further, managing and maintaining a collection is as important as its development. In her book, Johnson addresses issues of weeding, storage, and preservation. For example, she asks if you are weeding for withdrawal or for transfer to storage or elsewhere?\nAdditionally relevant to any information professional is the book\u2019s discussion of ways to protect your collection from deterioration, theft, mutilation, and disaster. Information professionals will also find value in her discussions of these topics: budgets; ethics; security; selecting access methods for digital resources; ways to identify and solicit materials for inclusion in a digital repository; preservation reformatting and copyright law; mass digitization; preservation plans and collection protection; and marketing and research.\nThe discussion on vendor relations, negotiations, and contracts is particularly interesting. Johnson has said that \u201cvendors are trained in selling and promoting their products and especially in negotiating effectively.\u201d She maintains that it is equally important for information professionals to acquire parallel skills.\nJohnson\u2019s book will be best used as a reference tool. Every chapter contains new suggested readings and fictional case studies to stimulate discussion. Readers are directed to previous reading lists and case studies. The glossary and appendices have been updated and all URLs were valid as of fall 2017. This inevitably means that recent information will not appear in the print edition. Notably, her third edition has been on the curriculum for collection development courses at Indiana University and the University of British Columbia.\nJohnson\u2019s new edition is ideal for those starting out in information studies and for seasoned professionals alike. It provides a solid foundation and support to those who bring a wealth of knowledge, skills, and abilities to their collection development and management tasks. You are an \u201carbiter of quality\u201d if you are responsible for collections at your institutions, and you will benefit from this book accordingly.\nAna Rosa Blue, M.L.S\nArchiving2019.02.12Professionals in Data Collection and Management Will Find Value in New Edition of \u2018Fundamentals\u2019",

        "raw_content": "Two Years of Tiny Knitting: an Interview with Anna Hrachovec\nBack in 2009, Anna Hrachovec figured out how to knit a tiny brain. That little project touched off a two-year Tiny Challenge: Anna created a new tiny design every weekday for the first month, and then continued with a new design each week after that. As of today, she\u2019s still challenging herself to come up with new tiny knitting and share it on her blog, Mochimochi Land.\nAfter making over 100 tiny designs (and writing patterns for some of them), Anna has learned some things about how a long-term crafty challenge grows new skills and pushes boundaries. She talked with me about the process.\nWhat inspired you to give yourself the original challenge to come up with a new tiny design every weekday?\nThis was in July 2009, and I had just finished writing my first book of knitted toy patterns, Knitting Mochimochi. I was exhausted from that, but in a way, I was also itching for a new project \u2013 one that would be about instant gratification instead of the longer-term goals of a book. I thought working with small goals on a daily basis would make me forget about bigger stuff for a while. I really didn\u2019t think it would last beyond one month. (Or that it would turn into another book!)\nWhy do you think a creative challenge like this is beneficial for crafters?\nTaking on a project that seems borderline crazy and slightly more than you might be capable of is a fantastic way to stretch your brain and learn new skills. Accomplishing the end goal is rewarding, but the problem-solving and experimentation that happens along the way are such valuable things in themselves too. This doesn\u2019t just apply to crafting, of course, but working with your hands and discovering new materials and techniques opens up an enormous number of different paths you can take with your creativity.\nHave there been any points in the last two years where you felt like giving up? What did you do to keep yourself engaged in the project?\nI\u2019ve definitely had days when I\u2019ll work on two or more different concepts, and none of them are working out. (To me, it\u2019s a failure if you really can\u2019t tell what the design is supposed to be.) I always go back to sketching any animal, person, or object that I can think of until I see something iconic that would be fun to see in knitted form. I like to remind myself that the entire universe is full of possibilities (and yes, I\u2019ve already knitted the earth, the moon, the sun, and Saturn), so there\u2019s no reason why I can\u2019t find something new to knit.\nWhen you look back on your two years\u2019 worth of designs, what are the most important things you\u2019ve learned from the process of making them?\nI\u2019ve learned that animals and plants are easy to knit, and toasters and mailboxes are more difficult (but can be really exciting when done right). I\u2019ve learned that I have more sticktoitiveness than I had ever thought, and I\u2019ve learned that bamboo needles are extremely durable. (I\u2019ve used the same set of size 1 double-pointed needles throughout.)\nDo you see yourself continuing with this project? How will you know when it\u2019s time to stop?\nI don\u2019t exactly see myself continuing forever, but I also don\u2019t see myself quitting when there are so many things that could be knitted in a tiny version. Maybe it will be time to stop when I find a new challenge, or when the Tiny Caveman and Tiny Viking get together and mutiny. Honestly, I have no idea, but I do know that I\u2019m going to be at peace with stopping whenever that happens.",

        "title": "Announcing: New Human Forecasts for Maldives During Southern Hemi Season \u2013 Maldives Times",
        "raw_content": "Environment \u2022 Sports \u2022 Weather\nAnnouncing: New Human Forecasts for Maldives During Southern Hemi Season\nSpring in the Northern Hemisphere means summer is right around the corner \u2014 and that translates to winter approaching south of the equator. But whichever half of the planet you reside, top or bottom, tis\u2019 the season for Southern Hemisphere storms to spread swell across the major ocean basins of the world.\nWhile the Southern Ocean truly never sleeps during the year, it is most active from May through October and Surfline tailors our expert human-forecasts to this trend. We focus our cadre of meteorologists to the locations and times when storms and swells are most active. This year, we are pleased to announce the addition of the Maldives to our seasonal Southern Hemisphere forecasts. The Maldives join other bucket-list surf destinations like Bali, Mentawais, Fiji, and Tahiti with a human-generated forecast, updated three times a week from March through October.\nThough actually located just north of the equator in the Indian Ocean, the Republic of the Maldives receives the bulk of its swell from Southern Hemi sources. Located south-southwest off the tip of India, and roughly between Madagascar and the Mentawais in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the Maldives are one of the most spread out, lowest-lying (highest point is less than eight feet), and smallest land-area of any nation or group of islands in the world. The island chain is comprised of 26 atolls but the most well-known breaks are located centrally, near the capital of Male. Still, you\u2019ll need a boat to sample more than the surf on the island you\u2019re staying.\nThe remoteness of the Maldives means they are open to swell from across the Indian Ocean, plus swell from storms tracking through the Southern Ocean \u2014 from underneath Africa, across the Indian Ocean and all the way east underneath Australia. With the storm track from west to east, many swells side-swipe the Maldives on their way to Indonesia. This means fewer solid to large swells than you\u2019ll find in Indo, but lots of fun-zone size surf. But you\u2019ll have a variety of waves from island to island with the occasional larger swell mixing in, especially during the peak Southern Hemi season.\nIn addition, the Indian Ocean produces tropical systems that can deliver swell but are not a major weather threat. Since the islands lie within five degrees of the equator, it is difficult for cyclones to develop or maintain rotation. The Southwest Indian Ocean tropical season runs from November to April and averages nine tropical storms a season. The North Indian Ocean tropical season runs year round with most activity to the east and west of India, in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea.\nConsidering the Maldives are close to the equator, swells have typically traveled a good distance once they arrive, making local winds an important component in determining wave quality. The early part of the year (January-March) is considered winter, the Northeast Monsoon (Iruvai) season sees infrequent bigger swells that start to increase in March. This is also the driest time of year with winds coming from the east to the north, which is onshore for many spots.\nThe Southwest Monsoon (Hulhangu) includes the heart of the Southern Ocean winter and shoulder months (April-October), providing more storms and more consistent swell with winds generally more favorable winds from the southwest direction. April to June is considered the \u2018peak\u2019 surf period before more variable wind and weather from July to September. Storms and swell then typically start to decrease in consistency during October. The remaining months of November and December see fewer swells and far more scuba divers, the nation\u2019s primary tourist attraction, making it a period where you probably want to avoid making the long pilgrimage.\nThe largest SSW swell of the young Southern Hemi season is lining up for this weekend in the Maldives \u2014 Go Premium and access the 17-day forecast and in-depth analysis from the Surfline forecasting team. And keep monitoring the Forecast linked below while saving up money, vacation days, and Ambien for that 30hr flight from the West Coast, like we said, April through June is typically the best period of the year for combined swell and conditions.\nmaldives Northeast Monsoon (Iruvai) Southwest Monsoon (Hulhangu)\nEx-asst. police commissioner Jamsheed promoted again",

The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia will perform John Williams\u2019 Academy Award\u00ae-winning score while the full-length, feature film plays on three giant screens.\nBased on the best-selling novel by Peter Benchley and directed by Steven Spielberg, this masterpiece of suspense tells the tale of a small, New England seaside community terrorized by a predatory great white shark during the busiest weekend of the tourist season - the 4th of July. After several local residents are killed in the waters just offshore, it falls to three unlikely heroes - police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider), marine scientist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and surly local sea captain Quint (Robert Shaw) - to hunt down and kill the beast before more lives are lost.\nDespite a notoriously difficult ocean shoot with constant technical challenges, Jaws became the most successful movie of all time (until the release of Star Wars two years later), and Spielberg has often credited Williams' iconic score with much of the film's success. Now for the first time, audiences will have the chance to experience the power of The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia performing the entire score in sync with one of the greatest motion pictures of all time.

        "title": "Culture of Mongolia - MONGOLIA TOURS BUDGET - Man of Millennium Tour",
        "raw_content": "The Culture of Mongolia has been heavily influenced by the Mongol nomadic way of life. The nomadic way of lifestyle is still practiced today in the rural areas of the country. Nomads follow a seasonal routine raising and breeding the five main types of stock \u2013 goat, sheep, cattle (including yaks), camel and horse, migrating from place to place following the most favorable pastures and campsites. Other important influences are from Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism, and from China. Since the 20th century, Russian and, via Russia, European cultures have had a strong effect on Mongolia.\nThe Mongolian language is the official language of Mongolia. It belongs to the Ural-Altaic language family, which includes Kazakh, Turkish, Korean and Finnish. Today more than 10 million people speak Mongolian. They live in Mongolia, Buriat republic of Russian federation, Inner Mongolia in China, Shingjan and Gansu regions of China, Tibet and even a few number of people living in the State of New Jersey in the USA . In Mongolia, the Khalkha dialect, written in Cyrillic, is predominant. The classical Mongolian script, also known as Uyghurjin, was the first writing system created specifically for the Mongolian language, and was the most successful until the introduction of Cyrillic in 1946.\nShamanism \u2013 Shamanism goes back in Mongolian history long before Chinggis Khan\u2019s time, but it was Chinggis Khan that made it into such a fundamental part of the Mongolian tradition. At that time the Mongolians were worshipped \u201cHoh Tenger\u201d (blue skies). According to this belief the skies are the father, and the earth is the mother of all beings in the universe. As a civilization totally dependent on the forces of nature, the Mongolians worshipped the various elements of nature, praying to their ancestors who have transformed into mythical spiritual animals to provide them with good weather, health and success. Though oppressed during communist time, Shamanism is still practiced in Mongolia, and people who seek help will approach a Shaman for a blessing or cure and even to get hints about their future.\nBuddhism- Mongolians have followed Buddhism since the 16th century, when the Mongolian king, Altan Khan, was converted by Tibetan lamas. Mongolians follow Tibetan Buddhist teachings, (also called Lamaism), the body of religious Buddhist doctrine and institutions characteristic of Tibet and the Himalayan region. Today, Mongolia still embraces its Buddhist heritage. Monasteries are being restored, and are once again crowded with worshippers. The Dalai Lama is an enormously popular figure and has visited the country several times. For many Mongolians, the practice of Buddhism is flavored with traces of Shamanism, an even more ancient spirituality.\nOther Religions\u2013 Mongolia also has a small Muslim community \u2014 about 6 per cent of the population. These are mostly ethnic Kazakhs living in the far west of the country.\nMongolian traditional music composes a wide range of instruments and uses for the human voice found almost nowhere else. For instance, the Mongol Khoomii may be fascinating for foreigners. It is a musical, which can be delivered with a help of a guttural voice and specific way of breathing. One tone comes out as a whistle-like sound, the result of the locked breath in the chest being forced out through the throat in a specific way, while a lower tone sounds as a base.\nThe unique traditional singing style is known as or long Urtiin duu or long songs. It is one of the most ancient genres of Mongolian musical art, a professional classical art of the 13th century. Urtiin duu involves extraordinarily complicated, drawn-out vocal sounds. It has philosophical style, evocative of vast, wide spaces and it demands great skill and talent from the singers in their breathing abilities and guttural singing techniques.\nAnother popular form of art in Mongolia is the playing of the Morin Khuur, the Horse Headed Fiddle. It is used in Khoomii singing and in other forms of traditional music. The origins of the Morin Khuur lie with the Chinese two-stringed fiddle. With its typical horse-head carving crowning the instrument, it plays a major part in all classic Mongolian forms of music. To this day people of all ages play it",

        "title": "'My Name is Khan' (2010 movie, Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol)",
        "raw_content": "by Mark Czerniec | November 5, 2014 \u2022 1:00 pm | 0 comments\nMy Name is Khan (2010) is a somewhat long but constantly surprising movie. It induces gasps of delight with admirable regularity, yet occasionally falls flat on its face, resembling corny B movie propaganda in certain stretches.\nBollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan stars as Rizwan Khan, an Indian man with Asperger syndrome travelling alone around America on a mission to speak with the President of the United States, who is currently George W. Bush. Among the things he needs to tell the president is, \u201cMy name is Khan,\u201d and he places great emphasis on pronouncing the H in his name, \u201cfrom the epiglottis.\u201d Khan was raised in Mumbai as a Muslim and, as shown in flashback, his childhood was marked by his autistic difficulties in expressing affection, as well as talents in memorization and mechanics.\nAlso shown via flashback is his immigration to San Francisco as a young adult, and his relationship there with a beautiful Hindu woman named Mandira, who works as a hair stylist. Mandira is played by Kajol, Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s co-star in numerous Bollywood blockbusters.\nWhile Khan\u2019s Muslim identity is a potential source of trouble with Hindus during his childhood and an obstacle to romance with Mandira, the September 11 attacks hurl him to whole new levels of alienation and hostility. Another thing he wants to tell the president is, \u201cI am not a terrorist.\u201d\nMy Name is Khan is beautifully shot in an astounding number of scenes and settings. There\u2019s the Mumbai portion, plenty of San Francisco locations and other California spots, several scenes set in \u201cWilhemina, Georgia,\u201d bus travel, airports, presidential appearances, and hurricanes \u2014 just visually alone, an astonishing amount of material is packed into this movie. Cinematographer Ravi K. Chandran\u2018s camera swoops and glides, framing the characters and their landscape in one stunning tableau after another.\nShah Rukh Khan\u2019s performance is also outstanding. Add My Name is Khan to films like Rain Man and Temple Grandin whose stars portray the central characters with fairly authentic behavior and mannerisms, an enormously difficult task. SRK was reportedly plagued by severe headaches as a result of the peculiar pose he chose for his facial expression, head and neck throughout filming.\nOne of the movie\u2019s mixed blessings is that it aims at several purposes simultaneously. There\u2019s Khan\u2019s Asperger\u2019s, the romance, America\u2019s anti-Muslim reaction, the mission to see the president, and some other significant threads all jammed together and sometimes competing to overblown effect. There are parts of this movie that ring almost laughably false by striving to convey their gravity. However, with so much story to tell, it\u2019s never very long before we move along to something else.\nBollywood is regarded as one of world\u2019s the very greatest film traditions, and as a movie fan completely ignorant of it, I was surprised after watching My Name is Khan to see it classified as a \u201cBollywood\u201d movie. If that\u2019s true, it is certainly the most accessible introduction to Bollywood I can imagine.\nIn any case, director Karan Johar presents his forthright message of tolerance inside a sack loaded with sweet and colorful presents. Anyone who enjoys movies should be able to overlook its clinkers and relish its charm. I rate it three out of four stars.",

        "raw_content": "Our Ever-Present Companion\n\u201cAre you the only resident of Jerusalem who does not know\nthe things that went on here these past few days?\u201d\nWhen I finally shook my jet-lag, I began to appreciate this second life-changing experience in Israel. I was and continue to be very excited about this trip, It seemed only natural to share this year\u2019s adventure just as I\u2019d shared last year\u2019s.\nI began this effort in January, the week after we returned. Though I\u2019ve cultivated my friendship with Jesus all of my life, this stay in his homeland added an entirely new dimension to our connection. As I reviewed our itinerary and the new photographs through which we chronicled this trip, I realized that my experience this time around was far more unique than I\u2019d expected. While my fellow travelers carefully listened to our guide\u2019s every word, I listened to the quiet voice within me. I couldn\u2019t help talking to Jesus with the familiarity of Mary Magdalene, Peter and the rest.\nIt is Cleopas who poses the question above regarding the things that had happened over Passover. Poor Cleopas couldn\u2019t imagine that anyone was unaware of Jesus\u2019 death. Jesus, who disguised himself for the moment, urged Cleopas and his companion to delve deep within to make sense of these events.\nThough my trip and Lent have come and gone and Easter is a memory today, I think we are urged to do the same. If we truly believe that Jesus rose from the dead, we know that we will do the same. The question is, \u201cHow do we respond to Jesus\u2019 precious company until then?\u201d\nLoving God, when I keep in mind that you are with me, I do my best work. Please inspire my efforts.\nThis entry was posted in Daily Devotion, Daily Reflection, Devotionals, Writings and tagged Alleluia, Ash Wednesday, Christ Is Risen, Easter, Easter Season, Eternity, Faith, God, God's love, Holy Land, Holy Week, Hope, Israel, Jesus, Joy, lent, Life After Death, Life After This Life, love, Luke's Gospel, Meditation, Memories, Peace, pilgrimage, Remember, Resurrection, Understanding.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Singapore\u2019s Only Live Turtle And Tortoise Museum Is Closing This March & Here\u2019s How You Can Help\nStephen Hawking dies aged 76 \u2192\nResearchers studying the Flynn effect have found that scores on IQ tests have actually improved over time.\nThis is an interesting read for parents and students. Basically, IQ is a complex notion that is dependent on various factors, including environment and educational factors.\nYou\u2019ve probably heard someone lament the state of \u201ckids today\u201d: that current generations aren\u2019t as smart as the ones that came before them. However, psychologists who study intelligence have found that there isn\u2019t much support for this idea; instead, the opposite may actually be true. Researchers studying the Flynn effect have found that scores on IQ tests have actually improved over time. Below, we\u2019ll review what the Flynn effect is, some possible explanations for it, and what it tells us about human intelligence.\nThe Flynn effect, first described in the 1980s by researcher James Flynn, refers to the finding that scores on IQ tests have increased in the past century. Researchers studying this effect have found wide support for this phenomenon. One research paper, published by psychologist Lisa Trahan and her colleagues, combined the results of other published studies (which included a total of over 14,000 participants) and found that IQ scores have indeed increased since the 1950s. Although researchers have documented some exceptions, IQ scores have generally increased over time. Trahan and her colleagues observed, \u201cThe existence of the Flynn effect is rarely disputed.\u201d\nWhy Does the Flynn Effect Happen?\nResearchers have put forward several theories to explain the Flynn effect. One explanation has to do with improvements in health and nutrition. For example, the past century has seen a decrease in smoking and alcohol use in pregnancy, discontinuation of the use of harmful lead paint, improvements in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, and improvements in nutrition.\nAs Scott Barry Kaufman writes for Psychology Today, \u201cThe Flynn effect serves as a reminder that when we give people more opportunities to prosper, more people do prosper.\u201d\nIn other words, the Flynn effect could be partially due to the fact that, over the twentieth century, we\u2019ve started addressing many of the public health issues that prevented people in earlier generations from reaching their full potential.\nAnother explanation for the Flynn effect has to do with societal changes that have occurred in the past century as a result of the Industrial Revolution. In a TED talk, Flynn explains that the world today is \u201ca world where we\u2019ve had to develop new mental habits, new habits of mind.\u201d Flynn has found that IQ scores have increased the most rapidly on questions that ask us to find similaritiesbetween different things, and more abstract types of problem solving \u2014 both of which are things that we need to do more of in the modern world.\nSeveral ideas have been put forward to explain why modern society might lead to higher scores on IQ tests. For example, today, many more of us have demanding, intellectually rigorous jobs. Schoolshave also changed: whereas a test at school in the early 1900s might have been more focused on memorization, a recent test might be more likely to focus on explaining the reasons for something. Additionally, more people today are likely to finish high school and go on to college. Family sizes tend to be smaller, and it has been suggested that this may allow children to pick up on new vocabulary words while interacting with their parents. It\u2019s even been suggested that the entertainment we consume is more complex today.\nTrying to understand and anticipate plot points in a favorite book or TV drama may actually be making us smarter.\nThis entry was posted in math and tagged GEP, iq.

        "raw_content": "Understand more info on domain backorders. Learn how you'll be able to place a domain backorder yourself.\nWhen a domain expires, there's a time period of a little over 60 days when it's inactive, but can still be renewed by its current user. During this time, the domain cannot be taken by anybody else, but in case it's not renewed, it gets into the so-called Pending Deletion period that lasts 5 days. This is when ICANN-accredited registrar firms accept backorders for such domains. In case a particular name is backordered, the registrar will try to register it for the customer right after it is deleted and available to the public, which gives people a chance to obtain a short and memorable domain which may have been used by someone else until now. If the domain is very appealing, several companies could try to register it in the same time and due to the fact that this happens on a first-come, first-serve basis, there is no guarantee that a particular person will have that domain. However, employing a backorder service will give you a lot better chance to acquire a particular domain than when you attempt to register it personally.\nAs our company is a partner of an ICANN-certified company, we provide domain backorders with all website hosting plans, so you will not need to subscribe for another account. A separate section in your Hepsia internet hosting Control Panel will enable you to browse all the domains that will be deleted in the next days and we have added several filters which will allow you to narrow your search. You could input any word or phrase, specify the minimum and maximum number of characters, select a specific deletion date or select the extensions which should be viewable. Employing the filters will save you efforts and time and in case you come across a domain that you want to have, you could place your order for it with only a click. If we are not able to register the selected name, you will not lose the money you've paid and you will be able to order other domains with it - new registrations or backorders.\nIn case you have a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you won't have to open a separate account to be able to backorder a domain as we offer this service within the Hepsia internet hosting Control Panel. The full list of all domain names due to be deleted will be at your disposal and you shall be able to acquire any domain with a single mouse click. Using the filters for a particular deletion date, domain length and top-level extension will enable you to narrow the search and surf only domain names you are attracted to. In addition, you'll be able to browse domains that include only dictionary words or a certain phrase of your choice, which will save you a lot of time because thousands of domains are erased every single day. Of course, if we are unable to get the desired domain, the money for it will be available as credit for upcoming orders and you won't lose it.\nWe offer a backorder service for all our customers as an authorized registrar company and you can take advantage of it through the billing Control Panel of your server. A couple of filters will allow you to narrow the list of domains which you see because there are thousands of domain names being erased on a daily basis. With a couple of clicks you can pick what extensions to be viewable, how long the domains should be and when exactly they will be deleted. In addition, you can select to view only names that contain dictionary words or a phrase of your choice, so you could quickly find any name which may interest you. Placing an order will take just a click and in case we can register the domain, you will be able to control it from the same Control Panel. If not, your money will not be wasted and you will be able to use it for any other service - another site or any other thing associated with your dedicated server.",

        "raw_content": "drugs and women in prison\nHelen Crewe\nThe current Lord Chancellor, Michael Gove has announced that a team has been set up to investigate how to establish problem-solving courts. In 2014, the Howard League published a report called, are problem-solving courts the way forward for justice? (Ward, 2014). This working paper provides a useful overview of the increase in the use of problem-solving courts. According to this approach, there is the belief in a therapeutic approach that involves offenders rather than leaving them out of the criminal justice process. The approach with problem solving courts is that people can be accountable for their actions and play an active role with their rehabilitation. According to this working paper the advantages of problem-solving courts include providing a model that empowers people, has well-being at its core and changes the delivery of justice (Ward, 2014). Michael Gove has apparently been examining how Texas have used a type of problem-solving court to cut prison numbers and send offenders on intensive courses to deal with drug abuse (Lefty, 2016). This alternative approach will be welcomed by many prison reformers, however it is important to consider that there could be a penalty of non-compliance and prisons will not be abolished using this system. Baring these issues in mind, it is important to publicise the little known facts about drugs and women in prison.\nInternational drugs war:\nGlobally there are 60% of women in prison for drug offences. The international drugs war means that many people are dealt with by the criminal justice system rather than being supported by other forms of service relating to their health, social issues and well-being. The treatment of women in prison varies greatly between different jurisdictions and there is clearly a need for alternatives to imprisonment. For example, in Brazil the criminal drug policies have not only been blamed for the increase of women in prison, but also within Brazil research has shown that women become victims of institutional violence (Arguello and Muraro, 2015). Support don\u2019t punish is a global advocacy campaign which calls for better drugs policies that prioritises public health and human rights. This campaign is not for alternative ways of criminalizing drug users, but for nations to focus on health and harm reduction.\nWomen who are carers\nWhile it will be useful to investigate alternative ways jurisdictions can deal with offenders within the court system there is international recognition that substance misuse intersects with other health issues. While international debates are recognizing the possibilities of alternatives to custody, many women in prison are mothers or carers where it could be considered that their drug use damages others. This could have the consequence of women being treated more harshly or imprisonment not being reduced. For example according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, sanctions for drug use are justified where there is damage to others however, where there is no damage to others then this justifies treatment through healthcare and alternatives to imprisonment (UNODC, 2009).\nHealth of substance misuser\u2019s\nIt is widely recognized that women experience greater stigma and discrimination. The current problem with services that are intended to reduce harm is that they are not tailored to the needs of women. In particular, there are many gaps in knowledge about the impacts of support systems and whether they are integrated with sexual, reproductive or other social support services. While it is known that drug taking can be linked to issues such as alcohol, mental health problems or communicable disease, very little is known about the intersections with issues that will be specific for women such as pregnant women, women who are carers for relatives or women who have been victims of abuse.\nResearch has shown that women in prison who are drugs users have not necessarily been convicted of a drug related crime. This is an important consideration for nations which are looking at alternative forms of justice such as the use of problem-solving courts. Not only should there be research and the implementation of alternative forms of court but the reality is that under this system prisons will continue to exist. This will mean taking into account that prisons will continue to need to do more about the availability of drugs and care for women who have health, social and welfare issues. For example research has discovered that drug use is often used to self-medicate against memories of abuse and if a woman stops misusing drugs without appropriate support then memories could re-appear (NOMS Women and Equalities Group, 2012). In particular a study found that whilst a woman gave up drugs during her pregnancy, she experienced a miscarriage in HMP Holloway and following this experience she returned to drugs again (Wincup, 1997).\nImpact of prisons\nDespite assessments and the delivery of a range of treatment there are differences between prisons with the support women are likely to receive. For example the prison inspection report at HMP Peterborough (2011) noted that whilst a needs analysis identified pregnant women on drugs, the subsequent drugs strategy did not include how this need was addressed by the prison. The consequences of a model such as the problem-solving courts are not known especially in relation to women who are likely to have complex and intersecting issues that are not related to their offence. The working paper suggested that problem-solving courts could potentially be more costly than the current criminal court approaches. Women involved with the criminal justice system are in a minority and this is reflected by the many gaps in knowledge about women. Not only is more research needed relating to specific issues which affect women but also politicians, policy-makers and academics will need to debate more widely whether models such as the problem-solving court will reduce the numbers of women in prison.\nOriginally published at www.r4womeninprison.com on January 10, 2016.\nConsultant, writer, trainer and research for women in criminal justice systems\nResearch for women in prison\nsupport for researchers and practitioners\nNever miss a story from Research for women in prison, when you sign up for Medium.

        "raw_content": "LOGICS FOR RESOURCES, PROCESSES, AND PROGRAMS\n(affiliated with Tableaux 2013)\nNancy, France. September 16, 2013\nA one day workshop on Logics for Resources, Processes, and Programs will be held the 16th September 2013 in conjunction with Tableaux 2013\nA special issue of a Journal on these topics is expected after the workshop.\nLRPP 2013 Programme\nThe notion of resource is a basic one in many fields, but it appears as central in computer science. The location, ownership, access to, distribution of, mobility of, and, indeed, consumption of, resources are central concerns in the design of systems (such as networks and operating systems) and of programs which access memory and manipulate data structures (such as pointers). Various logics, typically involving substructural connectives, have been proposed in order to provide a logical analysis of this notion from different viewpoints. Examples include linear logic (number-of-uses reading), the bunched implications logic (sharing and separating interpretations), so-called separation and spatial logics (pointer logic and local reasoning, logics for concurrency, logics for data structures such as trees). Logics such as these, which may include a wide range of modalities and domain-specific operators, allow the description of properties of systems, of process calculi, and of programs, and so provide bases for specification and theorem-proving tools.\nThe purpose of this workshop would be to discuss recent results on logics, including systems formulated in the style of Hoare and Hennessy-Milner, for modelling resources, processes, programs, and their interactions. We envisage a range of perspectives: proof-theoretic foundations, including decidability and complexity; semantic foundations (e.g., new resource semantics); specification of properties and behaviours; verification and analysis of programs and systems. It should help to establish and publicize a research agenda for such logics and their use in the development of trusted systems.\nThe workshop is intended to provide a forum for discussion between researchers interested in logics of resources (from foundations to related calculi and applications) and researchers interested in languages and methods for specification of mobile, distributed, concurrent systems and their verification.\nTopics of interest, in this context, include but are not restricted to the following:\nLogics for resources: semantics, model theory and proof theory;\nProcess calculi, concurrency, and resource-distribution;\nReasoning about programs and systems;\nExtensions of logics, e.g. with modalities;\nLanguages of assertions, languages based on resource logics (query languages, pointers, trees, and graphs);\nTheorem proving and model checking in resource logics: decision procedures, strategies, complexity results.\nEdmund Robinson (Queen Mary, University of London, UK)\nHans van Ditmarsch (CNRS - LORIA, Nancy, France)\nResearchers interested in presenting their works are invited to send an extended abstract (up to 10 pages)} by e-mail submissions of PDF files to Didier Galmiche (Didier.Galmiche@loria.fr) and David Pym (d.j.pym@abdn.ac.uk )by July 26, 2013 .

        "raw_content": "2 in 3 countries have \u201chigh corruption burden\u201d: Transparency International\nThe world\u2019s most corrupt countries have been revealed in Transparency International\u2019s 2017 Corruption Perceptions Index. The big movers in this year\u2019s index are the UK, whose score has improved by eight points since 2012, and Australia, whose score has fallen by eight.\nUsual suspects at top and bottom\nThe CPI ranks 180 countries and territories on how corrupt their public sector is perceived to be, based on sources including the views of business people and country experts. The index ranges from 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean). This year, the average country score was 43 and more than two-thirds of countries scored below 50. Transparency International said these countries carry a \u201chigh corruption burden\u201d. But with 80 percent of global economic growth coming from emerging market and developing economies, today\u2019s global organizations must balance opportunities for growth against risk exposure. The global extent of corruption shown in the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) only emphasizes the urgent need for any company operating internationally to have compliance due diligence and risk monitoring in place.\nNetherlands scored highly with 82, a slight fall from 83 last year and 84 the year before.\nUnited States was ranked 16th with a score of 75, which is a slight increase on 74 last year.\nIreland was ranked 19th with 74, which is a slight increase from 73 last year and shows real progress compared to its score of 69 in 2012.\nThe United Arab Emirates was ranked 21st with a score of 71, which is a significant improvement on the 66 it received last year.\nFrance was ranked 23rd with a score of 70, which is a slight improvement on last year\u2019s 69 but still leaves the country well behind the likes of Germany(ranked 12th) and the UK (ranked 8th).[RE1]\nAs in recent years, the top performing countries are New Zealand, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Switzerland, Singapore and Sweden. Identifying what characteristics the top performing countries have in common provides useful lessons for compliance professionals. This includes access to government budget information; high levels of integrity among people in power; and a judiciary that is objective and impartial. Transparency International also singled out the importance of a free press, noting \u201cclose linkages between corruption and the freedom of the press\u201d.\nThe lowest performing countries include Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen, Sudan, Libya and North Korea, with scores of less than 20. Yemen, Syria and Hungary have seen their position on the CPI fall significantly in recent years. This could reflect accusations of human rights abuses against these regimes and instability from conflict. For governments, the lesson is that demonstrating trustworthiness and integrity can attract investment and business partnerships to the country. However, a risky political climate is only one type of risk that companies should consider when conducting due diligence and risk monitoring.\nBritain rising, Australia falling\nThe United Kingdom has been one of the biggest improvers in recent years, rising from a score of 74 in 2012 to 82 this year. Why might this be? Perhaps it is the rise in enforcement actions against bribery following the Anti-Bribery Act of 2010, which is recognised as a world leader on bribery legislation. In 2016, former Prime Minister David Cameron convened an Anti-Corruption Summit at which he committed the UK to implementing a public register of beneficial ownership. The UK\u2019s Serious Fraud Office has shown increasing willingness to use Deferred Prosecution Agreements (DPAs) to secure settlements with companies accused of bribery and corruption. But there is no room for complacency: the UK must be careful to ensure that gaps in its anti-bribery and corruption legislation do not emerge when it leaves the EU.\nBy contrast, Australia\u2019s score has declined from 85 in 2012 to 77 this year. The fallout from the Panama Papers might explain some of this drop. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) announced in April 2017 that it is investigating more than 800 high net worth Australian clients of the offshore law firm Mossack Fonseca over allegations related to the Panama Papers. The following month, the ATO faced its own embarrassment after the son of the country's deputy tax commissioner was arrested over an alleged $165 million (AUD) tax fraud. But there are reasons for optimism: this month, legislation is being debated in parliament which would establish new foreign bribery offences and a regime for DPAs. Experts predict this could improve Australia\u2019s record of prosecuting companies and individuals for foreign bribery offence.\nHigh-risk regions\nThe CPI reveals that the regions of the world most at risk of corruption are Sub-Saharan Africa, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia. The average scores of these regions range from 32 to 34. Enhanced due diligence is essential for any company when dealing with business partners k in these countries, because the risk of corruption is very high.",

American air suffers from foreign dust\" on ScienceBlog:\nRoughly half the aerosols that affect air quality and climate change in North America may be coming from other continents, including Asia, Africa and Europe,....\nAtmospheric particles can travel thousands of miles downwind and impact the environment in other regions, found lead researcher Hongbin Yu of the University of Maryland, and his team in a report published in the August 3, 2012 issue of the journal Science. This could offset emission controls in North America and suggests there are more factors affecting domestic pollution than the Environmental Protection Agency has accounted for.\n\"People have been concerned about how an emerging Asian economy and increased manmade pollution will influence North American air quality and climate, but we found that dust makes large contributions here,\" explained Yu, an associate research scientist in UMD\u2019s Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center (ESSIC). \"So we cannot just focus on pollution. We need to consider dust.\"***Most of the pollution migrating into the North American atmosphere is not industrial emissions but dust from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, Yu found. Out of the total annual accumulation of foreign aerosols, 87.5 percent is dust from across the Pacific, 6.25 percent is comprised of combustion aerosols from the same region and 6.25 percent is Saharan dust from across the Atlantic.***UMD climate scientist Antonio (Tony) Busalacchi, who is chairman of the Joint Scientific Committee for the World Climate Research Programme and chairman of the Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences/National Research Council, says one of the most interesting points Yu and his coauthors make in their study is that even a reduction of industrial emissions by the emerging economies of Asia could be overwhelmed by an increase in dust emissions due to changes in meteorological conditions and potential desertification.

        "raw_content": "Breastfeeding With Teeth (His, Not Mine)\nI\u2019ve recently started to wonder when I\u2019d start to wean my son off the breast. You see, when I found out I was pregnant, I knew I wanted to at least try to breastfeed. I say \u201ctry\u201d because I didn\u2019t want to put any pressure on myself if it didn\u2019t work out and didn\u2019t want to feel like a failure if I ended up resorting to formula from the start. As I\u2019ve discussed previously, my desire to breastfeed wasn\u2019t just based on the fact that research shows that it has many health benefits both for mom and baby, but also because I found it more practical and definitely less expensive.\nI was thrilled when my milk came in and my son thrived (and is still thriving) on my milk. It fills me with pride every day to see my \u201clittle chunkster\u201d, as I call him, continue to grow and develop so well on \u201cmommy milk\u201d.\nWith my first goal of trying (and succeeding) to breastfeed met, I decided to set another goal. I figured that I would exclusively breastfeed at least six months (the suggested minimal amount of time) and then start weaning right away. However, as time went by, I realized that I really treasured the time I spent nursing my son (even if it wasn\u2019t always easy), and so, I decided that I would continue past six months but would stop when he had teeth. Well, now that he has teeth (very ouchy teeth, I should say) and is nearing the six month mark, I find myself needing to reevaluate my goal.\nTo be honest, I\u2019m not ready to give up breastfeeding yet and, as the time for solids approaches, I\u2019m feeling both the natural excitement at seeing my son reach another milestone and a sadness at the fact that I will no longer be his only source of nourishment. Now don\u2019t get me wrong, I know that milk will still be his primary source of nourishment until he is a year old \u201cfood before one is just for fun\u201d, but still, he won\u2019t be getting just milk\u2026\nIt would seem that I am in need of a new goal\u2026\nNow you see, my official day back at work is on August 26th. At that time, Little Dude will be just past the 9 month mark. He\u2019ll be staying with his dad for the last week of August and first week of September and then will start daycare. What want to say is that I\u2019ll keep breastfeeding until mid-August and then start introducing formula. The fact of the matter is, I just don\u2019t think that I will have the energy necessary to pump to make it to one year.

I mean, you could pump\u201d.\nMe: \u201cYou\u2019re right, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll have the energy to pump\u201d.\nMy brain: \u201cIt\u2019s just for three months, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll find the energy\u201d.\nMe: \u201cYou don\u2019t understand, my job is tough\u201d.\nMy brain: \u201cBut you\u2019ll only be working part-time. Besides, breast milk is free and formula is expensive\u201d.\nMe: \u201cI know, I know\u201d.\n*Bleh*, seems I haven\u2019t made up my mind after all.\nOh well, *sigh* guess I\u2019ll just have to take it one day at a time.\nTagged: baby, bottle feeding, breastfeeding, feeding, goals, infant, milestones, mom, mother, motherhood, parenthood, parenting, weaning\nPrevious Post More Than A Mom! \u2013 A DIY Mother\u2019s Day\nNext Post Awesome Moves Little Dude!\n16 thoughts on \u201cBreastfeeding With Teeth (His, Not Mine)\u201d\njanelk says:\nI myself did the breast feeding thing when my children were small a long time ago. I did not work making it very easy to do and yes less expensive. My daughter now has done it with 3 children the first time she had twins and one was sick which made it very hard but she did it (with lots of help) with her second child she was determined to do it as long as she could pumping at home and at work. At the 6 mo. mark it started becoming harder to do and by the 8th month she could not do it any more and that was about the same with the 3rd and last one. So good luck, but do us all a favor know when to stop a 10 yr. old child on the boob is to far (hahah) .\nThank you for stopping by and for sharing! And don\u2019t worry, there is no way I\u2019m going to be still nursing my son when he\u2019s ten! \ud83d\ude09\nIt is tough! You could try introducing formula as a supplement and still pump (until you get sick of it) and nurse at nights? With my first, he stopped getting the breast when he got teeth because he would chomp down at the end of feeding. I could never get him to stop so pretty much as soon as that first tooth broke, he was done. Pumping exclusively got pretty old pretty fast, but paying for formula is never fun either! Just remember, no matter what you do, someone will think it\u2019s wrong. \ud83d\ude09 Seriously though, as long as he\u2019s physically healthy and you\u2019re emotionally healthy (as much as possible), you\u2019re doing the right thing!!\n\u201cNo matter what you do, someone will think it\u2019s wrong\u201d. Unfortunately true, and parenting is riddled with enough self-doubts that I would gladly live without outside judgement, but oh well, such is life. I think that formula as a supplement is a great idea and will help make the transition easier. As for nursing at night, I really would like to continue; it seems like way too much of a hassle warming up a bottle in the middle of the night. But to be honest, Little Dude\u2019s a biter and he likes to have the least amount of breast as possible in his mouth while nursing so it can get quite painful, I suppose I\u2019ll just continue to go with the flow. How did the transition to formula go with your first?\nI called my guy Little Dude too! \ud83d\ude42 From what I remember, it was pretty smooth. But he was used to getting bottles of breast milk in addition to nursing from pretty early on. I think I just started adding a couple of ounces of mixed formula to a breast milk bottle until he was taking full bottles of formula. Good luck!\nIt\u2019s never an easy decision, but whatever you do decide, remember that you nursed him for a minimum of 6 months and even that is a remarkable thing because nursing is not as easy and natural like everyone suggests! I had to stop with my oldest at 6 months because he already had 6 teeth and I couldn\u2019t pump thanks to overactive letdown (which, fortunately, went away by the time my 3rd came around) so I was in the same boat. Either way you go, you\u2019re still your baby\u2019s hero \ud83d\ude42\n6 teeth at 6 months! Holy crap! But yes, you are soooo right; our bodies may well be made to nurse, but it definitely isn\u2019t as easy as it looks!\nHey \u2013 I can SO relate to all this (except the teeth part \u2013 we aren\u2019t there yet) My goal is also six months, but I can see myself going longer w a few feedings per day. I have been back to work for a while now and the pumping has been the most annoying part. But I am really trying to multi-task with it \u2013 In fact\u2026guess what I am doing RIGHT NOW?? \ud83d\ude42 ha!\nHehe, I am often NAKing \u2013 gotta love multitasking! It takes real dedication to pump so Kudos to you for sticking with it! But no matter what I decide (and you, for that matter) I can\u2019t help but be proud of how long I lasted (because boy were there times where I wanted to give up!).\nNine months of breastfeeding will be great. The more the better! There are definitely ways to remedy any problems that can come about from teeth/biting. The thing about teething, is that breastfeeding is actually nature\u2019s way of soothing the baby\u2019s mouth (I read that it soothes the gums because of the WAY the baby suctions/sucks, which is different than sucking on a bottle) I thought that was really cool and it explains why babies nurse more when teething!\nI know I wouldn\u2019t want to pump full-time, so I understand why you\u2019re thinking the way you are. \ud83d\ude42\nYou know, the thing is, if I were able to be a SAHM, I would most likely continue to nurse until my son decided to wean himself (teeth or not). Unfortunately, that\u2019s not possible so I\u2019ll take what I can get (or, rather, give what I can give). I didn\u2019t know that nursing during teething helped; from what I\u2019d read, the sucking motion made teething more painful. I\u2019d be interested in knowing how you coped with the challenges of nursing a child with teeth \u2013 I expect you have some experience in the matter considering that you are still nursing Samuel.\nSamuel has 16 teeth now \u2013 ha! Four of them molars. \ud83d\ude09 We\u2019ve had a few incidents but overall they weren\u2019t enough for me to wean because of. Here\u2019s what I did to treat my nipple after getting bitten (Owwie!): http://atlantamomofthree.wordpress.com/2012/09/16/\nThanks! Will definitely give it a read!\nVCrayon says:\nIt is such a tough decision. I had a tough time when I was still nursing #2, she was biting and I was pregnant with #3\u2026 OUCH! Luckily, I didn\u2019t have to go back to work\u2026 pumping is really difficult. I hope you\u2019ve found something that\u2019s working.\nI actually did end up making it to 13 months with my son despite going back to work when he was 10 months old and pumping. But pumping was just so darned hard (not to mention that I only have a single hand pump) and ultimately it was mostly because of this that I decided to wean him. And though it was still a tough call to make at the time, I\u2019m at peace with my decision now\u2026especially that I now have a newborn to tend to \ud83d\ude09",

        "raw_content": "This 9V battery makes your smoke detector so much less annoying\nIf there's one smart home device worth trying, it might be the Roost smart smoke alarm battery.\nIf there's one dumb device in your home worth making smart, it's your smoke detector.\nIt chirps when your battery is low (inevitably at 3 a.m.), it goes off when you're making stir-fry, and you have to stand on a chair or get out a dish towel to silence it. Most importantly, if there's a real emergency when you're away from home, there's no way for you to know about it.\nThere are two main solutions to the problem: Buy a home security system, or buy a bunch of $99 Nest Protect smoke alarms. They're expensive options, and they require installation.\nBut on Wednesday, a third, much cheaper and simpler option became available. The Roost, a $35 9-Volt Wi-Fi battery for your smoke alarm, will notify your smartphone when your smoke detector is going off, it will let you silence your smoke alarm from an app, and it will send low-battery alerts to your phone -- no more 3 a.m. wakeups.\nThe Roost battery has a Wi-Fi radio and a microphone. The microphone picks up the sound of your smoke dectector's alarm and transmits the alert to your phone via Wi-Fi.\nThe Roost became available for pre-orders on Amazon Wednesday and will start shipping in September.\nAt $35 (or $65 for two), it's not the cheapest single-function product in the world. But Roost claims that the battery will last five years, and replacements will cost just $15.\nThe brilliance of Roost is its retrofit concept. It doesn't require you to replace your current smoke alarms -- you just have to swap out the battery (which you need to do a couple times a year anyway).\n\"You can buy a smart dishwasher that texts you when it's done, but nobody cares about that,\" said Roel Peeters, CEO and co-founder of Roost. \"But when your smoke alarm goes off when you're not at home and you get a notification, that's very valuable.\"\nThe set-up process is simple. After downloading the Roost app, you enter your phone number, your name, your email address, and you select your Wi-Fi network. Your phone will then send an audio signal to the Roost battery that sounds like a 56k modem dialing up (if you were born after 1995, look up \"dial-up modem\" on YouTube).\nAfter that, you put the battery in your smoke detector and (hopefully) forget about it for five years.\nIf you've been resistant to the wave of smart home products, Roost might be the smart device that will change your mind.",

The same thing could be said about the Florida Keys, the setting for Netflix\u2019s dark family drama Bloodline, the second season of which is now streaming on Netflix. Sitting on the beach beneath a blanket of stars at the Moorings Village resort, it\u2019s hard to imagine the show\u2019s Rayburn dynasty living anywhere else. Yet it\u2019s a real possibility that a third season won\u2019t return to the village of Islamorada and other nearby locations after Florida ended its film production tax credits, which Florida Keys Film Commissioner Rita Troxel estimates are between 20 to 30 percent with a cap of $8 million.\n\u201cIt would be a tremendous loss for Florida economically and creatively,\u201d said producer Jon Landau, an Islamorada resident who\u2019s worked on three films in the state. \u201cJust look at what The Lord of the Rings did for New Zealand\u2019s tourism industry. It\u2019s phenomenal.\u201d\nAs Bloodline fans stream down to visit filming locations in the \u201cMayberry of the Keys,\u201d enough that long-time local Sheryl Guerry Rose added a pub crawl inspired by the show\u2019s numerous dive bars to her Florida Keys Food Tours, a closer comparison would be how Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil transformed sleepy Savannah into a destination for themed carriage tours and Lady Chablis sightings. Nearly every resident has become an amateur tour guide overnight.\n\u201cI give impromptu tours all day long since the marina in the show is directly behind us,\u201d said Richmond Arce, co-founder of uC\u00fambe lifestyle store whose sales increased 52 percent in 2015. \u201cBloodline is pumping people here. We needed positive media, too, since we lost our whole economy with the BP oil spill in the Gulf.\u201d\nTroxel said the uptick in business and general interest in the Keys\u2019 laid-back lifestyle has been so vast that Monroe County\u2019s Tourist Development Council conducted a rare film impact study based on Bloodline. Season 1 generated $91.2 million and $158.7 million in output and created more than 1,000 and 1,700 jobs in the Keys and state, respectively. Eight of 10 viewers interviewed from the pool of nearly 9 million U.S. households with active travelers who tune into the show were more piqued to take a Keys vacation or stay longer on their next trip. Since 40 percent of viewers were more inclined to promote the Keys by word of mouth, the TDC is introducing targeted, pre-roll ads for Season 2.\nThe boon to Islamorada isn\u2019t limited to tourism. Rhonda Brewer, a broker and partner at Moorings Realty, Inc., said real estate sales jumped 162 percent in 2015, with the village\u2019s average home sale price being $930,000 as of April 2016 according to the Florida Keys Board of Realtors.\n\u201cFolks frequently stop in our office and ask where the series was filmed, and one of my agents is working with a buyer now who decided to relocate to the Keys after watching Bloodline.\u201d",

The Sudan is the name given to a geographic region to the south of the Sahara, stretching from Western to eastern Central Africa.\nThe states of the Sudan The early kingdoms and empires of the western Sudan In the 10th century the kings of Ghana extended their sway over the \u1e62anh\u0101jah, the congeries of Amazigh nomadic tribes living around Audaghost, just north of their kingdom, who supplied them with salt and North African goods (see map). This move must have upset the economic balance between agricultural Ghana and the pastoral \u1e62anh\u0101jah, and ultimately it provoked a reaction. Like the North African Imazighen, the \u1e62anh\u0101jah tribes were already to some extent Islamized, and they shortly found in a militant, puritanical version of Islam the means to eliminate their tribal differences and to unite in the movement known to history as the Almoravids. In the middle of the 11th century they began to expand into the productive lands on either side of the western Sahara, and it would seem that later in the century Ghana became dominated by them. See Western Africa The States of Sudan\nThe medieval empires of Ghana, Mali, and Songhai that controlled the western Sudan had no fixed geopolitical boundaries or singular ethnic or national identities. Although each empire possessed important political and economic centers, such as Ghana\u2019s Kumbi Saleh and Songhai\u2019s Gao, it is not certain that these were permanent capitals. Instead, the empires may have had \u201cfloating\u201d capitals that shifted between a number of urbanized centers or traveled with their ruling monarchs. Above all, the empires of the western Sudan were unified by strong leadership, kin-based societies, and the trade routes they sought to dominate.\nTrans-Saharan Trade The importance that contact with the Islamic world held for these empires cannot be understated. While extensive trading networks undoubtedly predated Arabic involvement, the development of trans-Saharan commerce in the seventh century by Arabs and Berbers intensified and expanded the trading networks that made the empires of the western Sudan possible. See The Empires of the Western Sudan\nWest Sudanian savanna (green) inWest Africa The Western Sudan is a historic region in the northern part of West Africa. Traditionally, the Western Sudan extends from the Atlantic Ocean across to the basin of Lake Chad (which is sometimes associated with a region called \u201cCentral Sudan\u201d or other times with the Western Sudan) and includes the savanna and Sahel lands north of the West African tropical rainforest belt. It includes the rivers of the Senegal, Gambia and Niger systems, as well as the highlands of Fouta Djallon from which these rivers flow. West Sudanian savanna (green) in West Africa Historians have considered the Western Sudan as a land of great empires, since at least the seventh century, when the Empire of Ghana flourished, there have been a succession of empires: Ghana (seventh to eleventh century), Mali (thirteenth to fifteenth century), Songhai(1464\u20131591) are the three best known, but smaller large scale polities have also been important, the Empire of Great Foula (late sixteenth to early eighteenth century), the Bamana Empire (late seventeenth to early nineteenth century), and the nineteenth century empires of El Hajj Umar Tal and Samori Toure. In fact, since the fourteenth century at least, local historians of the region have seen its history in terms of a succession of empires.\nThis cycle is discernible in the historical accounts of shaykh Uthman, whose history was told to the historian ibn Khaldun while on the Muslim Pilgrimage in 1397. It can also be found in the great Sudanese chronicle, Tarikh al-Fettash. Modern historians have followed suit, and the imperial tradition can be found in textbooks today. See Western Sudan (Wiki)\nEast Sudanian savanna (green) inCentral and East Africa\nImages for Western Sudan images\nThe Sudan extends in some 5,000 km in a band several hundred km wide across Africa. It stretches from the border of Senegal, through southern Mali (formerly known as French Sudan when it was a French colony), Burkina Faso, southern Niger and northern Nigeria, southern Chad, the western Darfur region of present-day Sudan, and South Sudan.\nTo the north of the region lies the Sahel, a more arid Acacia savanna region which in turn borders the Sahara desert further north, and to the east the Ethiopian Highlands (called al-\u1e24aba\u0161ah in Arabic). In the south-west lies the West Sudanian savanna, a wetter, tropical savanna region bordering the tropical forests of West Africa. In the center is Lake Chad, and the more fertile region around the lake, while to the south of there are the highlands of Cameroon. To the south-east is the East Sudanian savanna, another tropical savanna region, bordering the forest of Central Africa. This gives way further east to the Sudd, an area of tropical wetland fed by the water of the White Nile.\nThe people of the Sudan region share similar lifestyles, dictated by the geography of the region. The economy is largely pastoral, whilesorghum and rice are cultivated in the southern parts of the region. The region was governed in colonial times by the French, as part of their African colonial empire, but the countries of the region achieved independence in the latter half of the 20th century.\nSoudan may refer to:\nThe French name (and former English name) for Sudan\nThe French name for French Sudan(present day Mali)\nPresent-day Mali was once part of three West African empires that controlled trans-Saharan trade: the Ghana Empire, the Mali Empire (for which Mali is named), and the Songhai Empire. During its golden age, there was a flourishing ofmathematics, astronomy, literature, and art.[10][11] At its peak in 1300, the Mali Empire covered an area about twice the size of modern-day France and stretched to the west coast of Africa.[12] In the late 19th century, during the Scramble for Africa, France seized control of Mali, making it a part of French Sudan. French Sudan (then known as the Sudanese Republic) joined with Senegal in 1959, achieving independence in 1960 as the Mali Federation. Shortly thereafter, following Senegal\u2019s withdrawal from the federation, the Sudanese Republic declared itself the independent Republic of Mali. After a long period of one-party rule, a 1991 coup led to the writing of a new constitution and the establishment of Mali as a democratic, multi-party state. Significant portions of its legislation is derived from sharia law.\nThe pages above are from Timbuktu Manuscripts written in Sudani script (a form of Arabic) from the Mali Empire showing established knowledge of astronomy and mathematics. Today there are close to a million of these manuscripts found in Timbuktu alone. Sudanese tourists by the Mero\u00eb pyramids in various types of clothing.At the height of their glory, the Kushites conquered an empire that stretched from what is now known as South Kordofan all the way to the Sinai. King Piye attempted to expand the empire into the Near East, but was thwarted by the Assyrian kingSargon II. The name derives from the Arabic bil\u0101d as-s\u016bd\u0101n (\u0628\u0644\u0627\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0648\u062f\u0627\u0646), or \u201cthe lands of the Blacks\u201c, an expression denoting West Africa and northern-Central Africa.\nInternational Association for the History of Religions (1959), Numen, Leiden: EJ Brill, p. 131, West Africa may be taken as the country stretching from Senegal in the west, to the Cameroons in the east; sometimes it has been called the central and western Sudan, the Bilad as-S\u016bdan, \u2018Land of the Blacks\u2019, [or]of the Arabs. By the 6th century, fifty states had emerged as the political and cultural heirs of the Meroitic Kingdom. Nobatia in the north, also known as Ballanah, had its capital at Faras; the central kingdom, Muqurra (Makuria), was centred at Tungul (Old Dongola), about 13 kilometres (8 miles) south of modern Dunqulah; and Alawa (Alodia), in the heartland of old Mero\u00eb, which had its capital at Sawba (Soba) (now a suburb of modern-day Khartoum). In all three kingdoms, warrior aristocracies ruled Meroitic populations from royal courts where functionaries bore Greek titles in emulation of the Byzantine court. A missionary sent by Byzantine empress Theodora arrived in Nobatia and started preaching Christianity about 540 AD. The Nubian kings became Monophysite Christians. However, Makuria was of the Melkite Christian faith, unlike Nobatia and Alodia.\nAfter many attempts at military conquest failed, the Arab commander in Egypt concluded the first in a series of regularly renewed treaties known as al-baq\u1e6d (pactum) with the Nubians that governed relations between the two peoples for more than 678 years. Islam progressed in the area over a long period of time through intermarriage and contacts with Arab merchants and settlers. Additionally, exemption from taxation in regions under Muslim rule were also a powerful incentive for conversion.[22] In 1093, a Muslim prince of Nubian royal blood ascended the throne of Dunqulah as king. The two most important Arab tribes to emerge in Nubia were the Jaali and the Juhayna. Today\u2019s northern Sudanese culture often combines Nubian and Arabic elements. During the 16th century, a people called the Funj, under a leader named Amara Dunqus, appeared in southern Nubia and supplanted the remnants of the old Christian kingdom of Alwa, establishing As-Saltana az-Zarqa (the Blue Sultanate), also called the Sultanate of Sennar. The Blue Sultanate eventually became the keystone of the Funj Empire. By the mid-16th century, Sennar controlled Al Jazirah and commanded the allegiance of vassal states and tribal districts north to the Third Cataract and south to the rainforests. The government was substantially weakened by a series of succession arguments and coups within the royal family. In 1820, Muhammad Ali of Egypt sent 4,000 troops to invade Sudan. His forces accepted Sennar\u2019s surrender from the last Funj sultan, Badi VII.\nTags: africa, Moors, Islam, British, Christianity, Mali, North, Sahara, Soudan, Sudan",

        "raw_content": "Justin\u2019s #28 \u2013 The Wright Brothers, David McCullough, 366 pages\nBeing at a Marine base, I see a lot of cars with the license plate of North Carolina (due to the large Marine Base in Jacksonville, North Carolina, Camp Lejeune). On the plate, there is a faint blue picture of a Wright Flyer with the license number superimposed on top. At the top, it says \u201cFirst in Flight.\u201d Unless you live in a closet, you know that the Wright Brothers were the first humans that achieved flight on the outer banks at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina around the turn of the 20th century. What is interesting is we get on planes perhaps every year (or nearly every year) and it has become normal in our lives. It was not always this way: in fact, humans have spent the greater half of 2000+ years trying to reach the sky.\nI\u2019m reviewing my second book on Dr. Al Mohler\u2019s Summer Reading List that is about the Wright Brothers written by Pulitzer Prize winning author, David McCullough. This book reminds me of one I read last year called \u201cThe Aviators\u201d which was about the formation of early advances in flight by Charles Lindbergh, Eddie Rickenbacker, and Jimmy Doolittle (which I did not write a book review about). Those three giants in aviation could thank thank the Wright Brothers for developing the earliest flying machine that had ever been known to man.\nThe two brothers grew up in Ohio with their dad Bishop Wright and sister, Catherine Wright. Their mother died early in life and the brothers benefitted from an academic upbringing that led to them tinkering quite a bit with all kinds of machines. After high school, the two brothers (who were practically inseparable) opened a bike shop. It was in this that they began to tinker with bigger ideas.\nThe two brothers used the profits from the bike shop to start inventing a flying machine. They worked tirelessly, with incredible persistence to perfect their machine. They figured that they would need greater wind than that in Ohio to make the flying machine lift so they moved their experiments to Kitty Hawks, North Carolina. They went in September to take advantage of the fall winds. They had little success several years in a row but kept coming back each year to test their newest flyer. With some modifications, they finally hit a breakthrough when they added a combustible engine in 1903 among other changes. In was in December when they made the first flights by a human in the history of mankind.\nWhat is slightly humorous is that no one would believe them at first and they kept the press at bay with incredible secrecy. The US government would not entertain notions that they had produced a flying machine so they turned to potential buyers in Europe. In 1907, Orville traveled to Paris with a Wright flyer to demonstrate the significant advances the brothers had made in aviation. Wilbur joined him sometime later, as well as Catherine.\nThey kept making changes to the flyer and broke every world record in aviation. Much more could be said about the brothers, but the most interesting aspect of their story is their uncompromising sense of pursuit. When they failed, they surely got discouraged but were back at it day after day, unwilling to settle for mediocrity.\nThe thought also crossed my mind that while something like the airplane has greatly increased efficiency in the world, it also has seen it turned into a weapon. Wilbur died in 1912, but Orville lived on in life until 1948. He witnessed the mass destruction that his marvelous invention could do to people. I don\u2019t have the exact quote, but he said something to the effect that the flying machine was in essence like fire: there are thousands of uses of fire once cultivated, but also destructive purposes as well.\nThis is really an outstanding book of scholarship and a gripping story. I highly recommend!\n#42 \u2013 Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania, Erik Larson, 448 pages \u2013 Justin Daniel",

When you compare these to the comments on HE Atiku\u2019s page to his Facebook Live broadcast this morning, the contrast could not be greater. The final verdict is in the hands and fingers of the millions of voters this Saturday.\n\u201cAs our candidate HE Atiku said in his final message of the campaign \u2018Even if you are not voting for me, still come out to vote on Saturday. It is about Nigeria, not Atiku Abubakar. It is about you and your future.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cSo, we appeal to every eligible voter to express their will and contribute to our democracy,\u201d as reported by Vanguard",

        "raw_content": "In order to best serve our Affiliates, NAMI Texas supports two operating models for Affiliate structures:\nModel A Affiliates are independent, 501(c)(3) organizations that have close affiliations with NAMI Texas and NAMI. This models enables the Affiliates to have more flexibility regarding how their activities are run. They maintain their own bylaws, Boards of Directors, insurance coverage, finances, etc., and are responsible for ensuring compliance with all state and federal regulations.\nModel B Affiliates are not incorporated as separate entities; instead, they fall under the auspices of either NAMI Texas or another NAMI Affiliate. They need to follow the policies, procedures, insurance, governance, etc. of NAMI Texas or the NAMI Affiliate. Though Model B Affiliates do not have as much flexibility, the burden of additional operational responsibilities is minimized. The details of the Model B option are in the process of being established; however, this model will be available to Affiliates in Texas shortly.",

LOEWE was born.\nThe prize pays homage to craftsmanship, returning to the origins of LOEWE and encouraging participation to give an opportunity to do what Enrique Loewe did in the past.\nA DIGITAL PLATFORM BASED ON THREE PILLARS\nWe brought these concept to a digital environment trough three premises that helped us shape the website. The first one was to give it its own identity while not forgetting the brand\u2019s own, and to find a balance between both worlds. For the second one, we worked on how to gain attention from the target not only visually, but also transmitting a clear message. And the third one was to develop a modular architecture which would help us show all the content in a dynamic and intuitive way.",

        "raw_content": "https://audio.simplecast.com/fb18ceb9.mp3\nGrowing up I loved sports and I still do, my favorite sport is basketball. I believe I probably could have gone the NBA, who knows maybe can still play in the NBA today. I am not saying this to be cocky if there\u2019s one thing I know how to do it is hustle and hustle put me ahead of many people who rely solely on their talent alone.\nIn 2013, David Lee became an NBA all-star for the second time. This is kind of a big deal. Only 24 players are selected to be an all-star and they are normally the 24 best players in all of the NBA. David admitted that he didn\u2019t feel he deserved to be an all-star, but he recognized if he would simply hustle harder than those who had more talent than him, his hustle would allow him to reach his dreams and goals.\nHustle is consistently putting in extra effort with a sense of urgency until you have accomplished your goal.\nHope depends upon the actions of others, instead of you taking actions to work towards bringing something to pass.\nThere are some things we are hoping for:\nI hope when _____ I will be able to _____.\nI hope I can grow an audience online.\nI hope I can find the right clients.\nI hope people like the work I\u2019m creating.\nAll of the above are passive statements. The good news each statement above has a direct path of hustle to make them a reality. If you want to grow an audience online you are going to have to get to know what your audience likes, hang out where they hang out, learn from those who have already gone through the process of building an audience.\nHope is designed to inspire you on what could be and hustle is what makes this a reality.\nThe best way to move toward your goal is to take actionable steps. Hope helps create a mindset but taking actions helps confirm your mindset.\nYou will be more inclined to hustle when it is anchored in a reason, motivation or inspiration. Simply put why are you doing what you\u2019re doing? Why do you decide to show up every day? You need to know and understand why you are doing something. Having that reason will serve as a constant reminder of why the hustle can\u2019t stop you have to continue. As I write this post it\u2019s early in the morning and I\u2019m tired, but I know for me remaining consistent is important to helping others and growing my business despite how I feel.\nFor some people, a good idea is better than a failed reality, and this is simply not true.\nI\u2019ve seen people not want to put in the hustle it takes to reach their goal because they are afraid of failure. The question is not whether or not you are going to fail. Matter fact I\u2019ll tell you right now if you are in business it is guaranteed you are going to fail.\nHustle isn\u2019t everything, you actually have to be good at what you do.\nEarlier I mentioned David Lee, sure he was able to hustle his way into the NBA\u2019s most elite however he still had to practice every day and he still had to make those shots when necessary. Think about certain weaknesses you may have, practice until you begin to improve on your shortcomings. On the opposite side continue to work on your strengths as well and cultivate what you are already good at. That\u2019s the type of hustle it is going to take to reach your goals.\nRemember hope is good but if you want to move past only hope and make those thoughts a reality you are going to have to take focused actions to move towards your goals.\n006: Hustle vs Hope2015-11-202018-09-23https://nathanallotey.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/green-na-logo-1.pngNathan Allotey (Official Site)https://nathanallotey.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/hustle-hope.jpg200px200px",

        "raw_content": "Injuries leave host Russia limping ahead of World Cup\nMOSCOW \u2014 With less than three months to go until the World Cup in Russia, the host nation\u2019s players are dropping like flies.\nA spate of knee injuries this year has left the Russians hurrying to find cover at the back and trying to replace a key attacking threat.\nFirst, centre back Georgy Dzhikiya tore his knee ligaments during a friendly in January. The same happened to Viktor Vasin a month later. Russia\u2019s defence was already thin, so those injuries prompted calls for the 35-year-old Berezutsky twins, Alexei and Vasily, to return from international retirement. They refused to do so.\nNow coach Stanislav Cherchesov must also seek a replacement for Zenit St. Petersburg forward Alexander Kokorin, who tore his knee ligaments in the Europa League last week. That puts more responsibility on the shoulders of Fyodor Smolov, now likely to be Russia\u2019s undisputed first-choice striker for the World Cup.\n\u201cWe\u2019re not complaining about anything,\u201d Cherchesov said Thursday. \u201cFate is often testing us in various ways but we always try to be ready.\u201d\nThe injuries mean Cherchesov will be forced to experiment during Friday\u2019s friendly against Brazil and Tuesday\u2019s game against France, both at home. Short-term medical issues have ruled three more fringe players out of those games.\nHere\u2019s a closer look at the issues facing Russia ahead of the World Cup:\nIf you had to pick one Russian striker for the World Cup, it might as well be Fyodor Smolov.\nOn track to be the Russian league\u2019s top scorer for the third season in a row, Smolov has been working on his English skills as he eyes a move to the Premier League.\nSmolov was linked with West Ham during the January transfer window but opted to stay with FC Krasnodar, saying he didn\u2019t want to abandon his team as it battles for a spot in the Champions League next season.\nWith Kokorin almost certainly out of the picture for the World Cup, Russia\u2019s backup options include Anton Zabolotny, who is still settling in at Zenit after a recent move from newly promoted FC Tosno. The 22-year-old Alexei Miranchuk can play as a forward, but is better in a deeper role.\nRussian players tend to stay in their domestic league, but there\u2019s one big exception in midfield \u2014 Denis Cheryshev.\nThe winger came through the Real Madrid youth system when his father was coaching there and is now at Villarreal, but frequent injuries have dented hopes he can add some spice to the national team.\nNow he\u2019s fit again and in the squad to face Brazil and France.\nElsewhere in the midfield, there are the promising and creative youngsters Roman Zobnin and Alexander Golovin, but Russia doesn\u2019t currently have a dominant defensive midfielder.\nCherchesov has a reputation as a difficult coach to get along with, and Russian media have regularly reported fallings-out with various players.\nOne of those outside the squad is Igor Denisov, who last played for Russia in 2016. He has been playing well in a defensive midfield role this season for Lokomotiv Moscow, the team at the top of the Russian league standings. Denisov and Cherchesov clashed during the latter\u2019s time as Dynamo Moscow coach.\nAlso absent from the squad is forward Artyom Dzyuba. A talented striker who has scored 11 goals in 22 games for Russia but has a reputation for being hot-headed, Dzyuba was deemed surplus to requirements at Zenit and sent on loan to Arsenal Tula. In three games there, he has scored three goals and set up two more to put himself back in the World Cup contention.\nRussia\u2019s soccer team hasn\u2019t escaped the country\u2019s doping scandals.\nDefensive midfielder Ruslan Kambolov is under investigation by FIFA for a possible doping case revealed by Moscow laboratory documents, but hasn\u2019t been suspended.\nThe team\u2019s schedule was disrupted Wednesday by drug-testing, which took more than five hours and delayed training. On Thursday, the team said five more doping control officers turned up to take samples from the team.",

        "raw_content": "Pioglitazone is an anti-diabetic drug (thiazolidinedione-type, also called \"glitazones\") used along with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes. It works by helping to restore your body's proper response to insulin, thereby lowering your blood sugar. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Pioglitazone is used either alone or in combination with other anti-diabetic medications (such as metformin or a sulfonylurea such as glyburide).\nRead the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start using pioglitazone and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually once daily. Dosage is based on your medical condition, response to treatment, and if you are taking other anti-diabetic drugs. Your doctor will adjust your dose based on your blood sugar levels to find the best dose for you. Follow your doctor's directions carefully. Take this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use it at the same time each day. If you are already taking another anti-diabetic drug (such as metformin or a sulfonylurea), follow your doctor's directions carefully for stopping/continuing the old drug and starting this medication. Carefully follow the medication treatment plan, meal plan, and exercise program your doctor has recommended. Check your blood sugar regularly as directed by your doctor. Keep track of the results, and share them with your doctor. Tell your doctor if your blood sugar measurements are too high or too low. Your dosage/treatment may need to be changed. It may take up to 2 to 3 months before the full benefit of this drug takes effect.\nSore throat, muscle pain, weight gain, or tooth problems may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: new/worsening vision problems (such as blurred vision), bone fracture, reddish-colored urine, urgent need to urinate, pain while urinating. Pioglitazone may rarely cause liver disease. Tell your doctor right away if you develop symptoms of liver disease, including: dark urine, yellowing of eyes/skin, persistent nausea/vomiting, stomach/abdominal pain. Pioglitazone does not usually cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Low blood sugar may occur if this drug is prescribed with other anti-diabetic medications (such as insulin or a sulfonylurea). Low blood sugar is more likely if you drink large amounts of alcohol, do unusually heavy exercise, or do not consume enough calories from food. To help prevent low blood sugar, eat meals on a regular schedule, and do not skip meals. Check with your doctor or pharmacist to find out what you should do if you miss a meal. Symptoms of low blood sugar include sudden sweating, shaking, fast heartbeat, hunger, blurred vision, dizziness, or tingling hands/feet. It is a good habit to carry glucose tablets or gel to treat low blood sugar. If you don't have these reliable forms of glucose, rapidly raise your blood sugar by eating a quick source of sugar such as table sugar, honey, or candy, or drink fruit juice or non-diet soda. Tell your doctor right away about the reaction and the use of this product. Symptoms of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) include thirst, increased urination, confusion, drowsiness, flushing, rapid breathing, or fruity breath odor. If these symptoms occur, tell your doctor right away. Your dosage may need to be increased. A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any of the following symptoms of a serious allergic reaction: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), dizziness, trouble breathing. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.\nDrug interactions may change how your medications work or increase your risk for serious side effects. This document does not contain all possible drug interactions. Keep a list of all the products you use (including prescription/nonprescription drugs and herbal products) and share it with your doctor and pharmacist. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicines without your doctor's approval. Other medications can affect the removal of pioglitazone from your body, which may affect how pioglitazone works. Examples include gemfibrozil, rifamycins including rifampin, among others. Beta-blocker medications (such as metoprolol, propranolol, glaucoma eye drops such as timolol) may prevent the fast/pounding heartbeat you would usually feel when your blood sugar level falls too low (hypoglycemia). Other symptoms of low blood sugar, such as dizziness, hunger, or sweating, are unaffected by these drugs. Many drugs can affect your blood sugar levels, making it more difficult to control your blood sugar. Before you start, stop, or change any medication, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about how the medication may affect your blood sugar. Check your blood sugar levels regularly as directed by your doctor. Tell your doctor about the results and of any symptoms of high or low blood sugar. (See also Side Effects section.) Your doctor may need to adjust your anti-diabetic medication, exercise program, or diet. If someone has overdosed and has serious symptoms such as passing out or trouble breathing, call 911. Otherwise, call a poison control center right away. US residents can call their local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222.\nStore at room temperature away from light and moisture. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep all medicines away from children and pets.",

I was going to do something a little blue about social theorists (there was a girl I almost dated who got turned on reading Marx, and she had friends who said the same), or about the PE and swim test that school makes all incoming students take (I got out of the PE requirement, because the registrar liked my eyes and, like the guy who administered the PE classes from the basement of a biology building, my dad went to Notre Dame), but when it was time, Bilal jumped at the clock. He was always quick to get there, and I had stupidly set up myself on the opposite side of the stage.\nThe next was doing the play Honestly. I think it\u2019s called Honestly. I should remember. It\u2019s the play where a cast member\u2019s picked by the audience and asked direct questions. If it\u2019s not called Honestly, it should be. Slickman wrote it.\nI was picked because I\u2019d gone to school there. They asked very U of C questions. Had I graduated? (Yes.) Was my GPA was over 3.5? (Yes, apparently a surprise to that audience.) Does P = Not P? (No idea. I had to read the Wikipedia when I got home.) And last, they asked me if I had a crush on Kristie, who was in the cast. I laughed and said no, and I\u2019ve since felt bad that I answered like that. I guess I regret that I laughed. Of course I would have had a crush on Kristie except she was married and we never really were in the show together and I already had a crush on another woman in the company and that company\u2019s just too small to have crushes on more than one member at a time. Anyway, later in the show, I also fucked up one of Kristie\u2019s plays by breaking a vial of glitter I was supposed to pour over her while she sang Sea of Love and played the ukelele. Instead of being tossed gracefully, the glitter was stuck to my hands, and I rubbed them together, my hands above her head, so the pieces would become unstuck and still fall in some way over her.\nMy other regret is that at the top of the show, like when we call for pizza, I didn\u2019t call Ribs \u2018n Bibs from the stage to order a bucket of rib tips.\nThat place, Ribs \u2018n Bibs, on 53rd and Dorchester, was my favorite restaurant. Probably ever. They closed in May. I don\u2019t think a reason was given. They\u2019ve closed before, but always reopened. This time it doesn\u2019t look good. The day I heard \u2014 in a text from another woman who was in my dorm my first year of school and now lives in New York \u2014 I went to a Memphis style barbecue spot in Gardena, California to grieve with a pork shoulder sandwich.\nI loved it for the food, for sure. Walking by in college, super broke, it just smelled good. I don\u2019t think I really ate it much until I\u2019d left school. It was always one or two dollars more than seemed responsible to spend on a meal.\nThen I graduated and got a job, teaching at this alternative high school at 47th and King. After a year, actually while I was on summer break in Australia, they fired me and hired this other kid from U of C, or who was somehow connected to the Executive Director of the Blue Gargoyle, the non-profit community service organization which ran the school and was sort of affiliated with the University. They shut down from financial problems about 5 or 6 years ago, and that school, Bronzeville Alternative, had closed a few years before that.\nI lived in Hyde Park another four years after graduating. Most alumni move out of Hyde Park, and Chicago, pretty soon after graduating. I think Chloe moved north right after graduating. I think Malic moved north while still in school. For whatever reason I stayed. There was a crew of students who did, and as each of our social circles emptied, we condensed, and we formed a new one.\nI started bowling with this group on Tuesdays at Miami Bowl, on Archer and Pulaski. They had 2-for-1 games on Tuesdays, and six or seven of us would take 2 lanes. (That place closed as well. It was open 24 hours, with two sides, maybe 50 lanes on each. On the weekends, when it was packed, one side was all black and the other side all Polish. The only time I was there on the weekend was one time when my folks and brother were in town. I also remember seeing Theaster Gates, who now runs the Arts Incubator that borders Washington Park, bowling there one Tuesday night with two women.)\nWe also played sports on the Midway: football in the winter when it was cold as fuck, and 16\u2033 softball during the summer. One time we were challenged by the softball team from Jimmy\u2019s Woodlawn Tap. We beat them, a huge upset. And I almost got into a fight with one of their bar backs. He was talking shit, but pitching balls that kept falling a few feet in front of the plate. I eventually moved up, 5 feet closer to him. This pissed him off. I still wish we had fought, and my buddy Mike afterwards told me the same thing. We were pretty even. It would have been fun. In any case, we won the game, despite all odds, and it produced a moment of wonderful intimacy for me with that group.\nMy favorite meal was the Tips \u2018n Links Combo (about 16 rib tips with lots of sauce, two sausage links, fries and white bread). Sometimes I\u2019d get the Bronco Cheseburger, but it was usually the Combo, which originally cost $10.80 and then, after they raised the prices, was a bit over $12 with tax. It became a regular part of my diet after I\u2019d moved out of Hyde Park, and had started living on the near north side. I\u2019d usually get it whenever I happened to be in Hyde Park, and would sometimes go to Hyde Park just for that.\nAs good as the food was, the best part was the guy who worked behind the counter. I don\u2019t know his name, but he was big, bald, around 50. I remember the first time I bought the Combo, I dropped it to my side. The guy told me to hold it flat. But the thing, the thing I loved the most, was after you gave him the money, and he gave you the food, he looked you in the eyes and said, Have a wonderful night. It was always sincere, always had its own space, and it was always directed right at you.\nI haven\u2019t been in that theater at U of C since that day I performed as a Neo-Futurist with Ryan, Kristie, Bilal and Eliza. I had only been there a few times before. A couple times to see concerts, once after I snuck in to see Carmina Burana. I saw Cornel West speak there with my dad one time he was visiting. The first time I was there was during student orientation, my first week of college. I sat up in the balcony. After the campus comedy team did some things, and a student body representative warned us about depression and suicide, one of the campus police guys, probably the head, told us where we should and should not go. He described a rectangle, between 51st and 60th, between the lake and Cottage Grove. The message was: inside of those boundaries you\u2019re safe, outside of them you are not.\nA week or two after we did that show I was back in Hyde Park to buy a TV. I\u2019d recently learned there was a University of Chicago message board where people sold the usual stuff \u2014 basically Craigslist, but for U of C people. Buying electronics, it just seemed a safer place to go than Craigslist, where everything felt stolen. And I guess I was some kind of nostalgic and wanted to feel connected to that community, or a community, while shopping online. I also thought I would find better deals. I had almost bought a car from that message board a month or so before.\nWhen I went to pick up the TV, I was wearing my Too Much Light shirt. There were a couple of kids who had just graduated and were moving out, and they were selling a 30\u2033 (first-generation) flat screen. It was to replace the 19\u2033 TV I\u2019d had since my last year in college which I\u2019d bought for $47 on sale at K-Mart on the urging of a girlfriend \u2014 who was less interested in me having a TV than in me just seeming more normal. It turned out that these guys lived in the same apartment that this girl had lived eight years before. When I walked in, they realized they\u2019d seen me a week before, performing at what had been part of their end of school festivities. It was super awkward as one of the guys helped me \u2014 a fellow graduate, now in the world \u2014 carry this already out of date TV, for which I\u2019d just given him $50, though he\u2019d probably asked for more, down to my car, a red, 1986 Chevrolet Cavalier convertible I\u2019d bought from my uncle\u2019s brother, an elected Illinois county judge, a few months ago, and was still driving, even though a kid from Ohio driving an Audi with his dad had rolled through a stop sign in Pilsen and braked just too late, so that he ever so slowly hit my front right tire, and ever so slightly bent it in. His good insurance ended up paying me what I\u2019d paid for the car, and told me it\u2019d been totaled before, and after paying a few hundred to have the wheel fixed, I drove it around for another few months, while things on it kept breaking down and it started leaking exhaust. I then sold it to a guy I worked with for $100 \u2014 a guy who\u2019d taken literacy classes at the Blue Gargoyle, thinking for a while he\u2019d get his GED \u2014, so he could fix it up and give it to his step mom, who lived just south and west of the rectangle the head of the U of C police had described for us in my first week of school.",

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: violin and piano\nAnne Akiko Meyers\u2019 Romantic Post Minimalism Enthralls\nAdmittedly I am a sucker for nearly all things minimalist and post-minimalist. Such programming can lead to some potentially dull or cloying experiences. Not so with this lovely collection of miniatures though. While minimalists like Glass and P\u00e4rt make their appearances the concept here seems to reach for larger goals. We have a mix of relatively simple chamber compositions along with electroacoustic works, a revelatory take on Ravel\u2019s Tzigane and and arrangement for violin and orchestra of a solemn choral piece by Morten Lauridsen.\nThis eclecticism seems to flow from the artist\u2019s choices rather than choices imposed by a producer. In this respect she reminds this reviewer of pianist Lara Downes whose repertoire choices are similarly eclectic but born very personally from the artists\u2019 experiences and preferences.\nThe opening Philip Glass Metamorphosis Two (1988) is presented in an arrangement by none other than Glass\u2019 long time champion Michael Riesman. It is followed by two violin and piano pieces by Arvo P\u00e4rt, Fratres (1977) and Spiegel im Spiegel (1978). These lovely works serve to draw the listener in most pleasantly. Akira Eguchi is the fine pianist who plays on all but tracks 4, 7, and 8.\nNext up is a piece of musical archaeology. Tzigane (1924) was originally written for violin and piano. It was later orchestrated and it is that version which is best known and probably most recorded. Well it turns out that Ravel had made a version for a now defunct instrument called a Luth\u00e9al which is an instrument invented in the early 20th century (patented 1919). It\u2019s actually not so much an instrument as an add on. It modifies the sound of a piano. The device now exists in museums but that hasn\u2019t stopped innovative producers from utilizing an electroacoustic version. Elizabeth Pridgen plays the keyboard to which the lutheal is virtually attached.\nApparently this version has been recorded before but this writer encountered it first in this release. It is a very different sound than the piano or orchestral versions and is a lovely take on the music. Many may buy the album for this track alone.\nThis is followed by a charming lullaby written for Meyers\u2019 youngest daughter. John Corigliano has absorbed only a small bit of the minimalism bug (maybe his 1985 Fantasy on an Ostinato qualifies) but he is one of our finest living composers and he appears to infuse this violin and piano miniature, Lullaby for Natalie (2010) with a tender romanticism that is both sweet and touching. In the notes we learn that it did seem to put her daughter to sleep but I doubt it will do that to most listeners.\nThe next two tracks are works by one Jakub Ciupinski (1981- ) who also has a stage persona under the name Jakub \u0396ak under which he performs live electronic music. This Polish born composer is now based in New York and works with various forms of electronics including a theremin. Both \u201cEdo Lullaby\u201d (2018) and \u201cWreck of the Umbria\u201d (2009) come from a similar place musically. Both use electronics in varying degrees to enhance and accompany the solo violin. Both are delightful little gems that give a nod to some minimalist roots but stand on their own merit and prompt this listener to keep an eye/ear out for more of this composer\u2019s work.\nThe concluding piece is an arrangement by the composer Morten Lauridsen (1943- ). The performer states she pursued Lauridsen for a new piece and when he finally acquiesced he presented this lovely arrangement of his well known choral piece, \u201cO Magnum Mysterium\u201d. The arrangement is for string orchestra and violin and orchestra here given its world premiere performance. It should come as no surprise to new music fanciers that the Philharmonia Orchestra is conducted by none other than Kristjan J\u00e4rvi, a fine conductor, composer, and avid new music advocate who can always be found near some interesting musical projects.\nThis album stands out in that the choices of the musical selections and the personal connections between the composers and the soloist are clearly collaborative and inspired. This is substance rather than fluff but it may appeal to a wider audience. This one can be said to have crossover hopes but it does not pander. This is a wonderful album and will likely prompt listeners who, like this writer, have yet to know this soloist to go and seek more of her recordings and live performances.

This charming collection organized loosely around songs without words is the third album by this emerging artist.\ufeff\nThe music is largely 20th to 21st century (if you count the date of the transcriptions) but the sound and mood of the album ranges from the romanticism of Mendelssohn and Tchaikovsky, the post-romantic Mahler, to the neo-classicism of Prokofiev and a dash of modernism from Messiaen, Gandolfi, Andres, and Auerbach. No words, no politics, just some really beautiful music.\nThere are 14 tracks of which the Mendelssohn and the Mahler will be the most familiar to listeners. What is interesting here is a certain unity in these seemingly disparate works which range over nearly 200 years of compositional invention. In fact this recital program strongly resembles in spirit the justly popular programs of Jascha Heifetz and his acolytes. That is to say that this is at heart a romantic recital program sure to please any aficionado of the violin and piano genre.\nTwo of the tracks, those by Michael Gandolfi and Lera Auerbach are for solo violin. The unaccompanied violin repertoire best represented by J.S. Bach\u2019s Sonatas and Partitas is a relatively small one and one fraught with difficulties for composers as well as performers. Fear not though, these pieces are well wrought and represent significant contributions to the solo violin literature.\nThe Gandolfi (1956- ) Arioso doloroso/Ecstatico (2016) was commissioned by Mr. Kutik and this is the world premiere recording. The composer utilizes a basically romantic sounding style with clear references to Bach at moments to create a very satisfying piece imbued with depth but eminently listenable. Gandolfi\u2019s eclectic oeuvre is by itself worthy of further exploration.\nLera Auerbach\u2019s (1973- ) T\u2019Filah (2015) is a reverent (though not excessively somber) prayer written in memory of the victims of the Nazi holocaust. Auerbach shares some Russian roots with the soloist and this brief composition will leave most listeners wanting to hear more from this fine and prolific composer.\nTimo Andr\u00e9s (1985- ) plays the piano on the eponymous track Words fail (2015), the second of the two works commissioned by Kutik and premiered on this disc. He is a skilled composer using a wide variety of compositional and instrumental techniques (which he mentions in his liner notes) to create a sort of modern song without words that fits so well in this program. Andr\u00e9s is certainly among the rising stars both as composer and performer.\nOne should definitely pay attention to the fine work of Kutik\u2019s accompanist John Novacek whose precision and interpretive skill so well compliment the soloist. The art of the accompanist shines very clearly here.\nOverall a great recital disc from a soloist from whom we will doubtless continue to hear great things.\nLeave a comment Posted in 21st century, Chamber Music, classical music, composers, early twentieth century, historical, modern music, music, new music, politics, vocal music Tagged eclectic, Felix Mendelssohn, Gustav Mahler, J.S.

        "raw_content": "I don't believe much in signs, but this one makes me wonder if God wants me to spread the truth lol\nPost by jfro18 \u00bb Fri Nov 30, 2018 2:08 pm\nSo the ldsdiscussions website goes up two months ago... it gets maybe 1-2 emails a week and usually nothing too crazy.\nThen about 3 weeks ago I get an email from someone who had some questions about the polygamy essay that Hagoth did. I sent him some sources to back up some claims and I also told him on some the info is scarce and we don't have perfect answers, etc.\nThe email took me by surprise because the name is my kid's name - first and last. I actually thought someone was screwing with me, but the only two people that know about the site are my wife and SIL... and they're not going to go through that kind of effort.\nAnyway - he replies and has the same area code as me in his signature. Keep in mind I live in Illinois - it is very rare to come across Mormons unless you're drawn together @ church.\nAs we email back and forth it turns out he's the EQ president of a local ward here and was told about the site by a younger person (34) in EQ.\nPretty insane coincidence... a guy with the EXACT same name as my kid living 10-15 minutes away that saw the site and emailed about it?\nI'm taking it as a sign that God wants me to spread the LDS gospel... not really but kind of.\nWe're supposed to meet up this weekend just to talk for a little bit and I'm actually really excited about it. I told my wife yesterday and I think even she was floored about someone being so close with the same name that just happened to email... maybe on some level it will normalize it for her that this is a real problem and not something that some random internet trolls just made up to screw with the church.\nSorry to be long winded - I just can't get over it even though I know deep down it's just a coincidence.\nIf I ever get excommunicated at least there might be two people that show up for me.\nRe: I don't believe much in signs, but this one makes me wonder if God wants me to spread the truth lol\nPost by Linked \u00bb Fri Nov 30, 2018 2:34 pm\nWow. If it were faith promoting then that would be fast and testimony meeting material right there.\nI'm glad to hear you are making a difference in the blogosphere. One soul at a time. How was your teaching received?\nPost by gr\u00e6y \u00bb Fri Nov 30, 2018 3:19 pm\nThat is really cool jfro18.\nI'm always dropping conversational hints here and there to people I think might be NOMish or at least open for discussions, but so far there have been no takers. Either my hints are too subtle, or no one around me is ready to talk, or they just don't trust me.\nSpreading the good word - I like it! I know there was a comment on Reddit about putting a name to the material, but I wonder if this person wouldn't have reached out if it was somebody he knew?\nI wonder that too - although I don't know if he would've connected the dots even with the names on the site.\nEither way I can't shake how insane the odds of that are, but of course I also am not a believer that if there is a God (I'm still trying to figure that out), that God intervenes in our lives in any real way.\nBut if God were to intervene in our lives, I'd have to take this as a sign that I need to keep trying to spread the word.\nHe met with the stake president last week and asked to be released as EQ president, so clearly the stuff he read broke his shelf quickly. His wife seems to be shaken but still wanting to believe Joseph was a prophet, so a similar situation to many of us here.\nWow that's cool, and much more significant than what I hear as rock solid proof in Fast and Testimony meeting on the first Sunday each month.\nPost by Red Ryder \u00bb Sat Dec 01, 2018 7:53 am\nMary Snap?\nJust met him for lunch and it was really nice.\nIt's really amazing how his story is both so similar and different to mine (or any of ours). His shelf broke over a few months... he started with the essays and Saints and Saints of all things made him want to look elsewhere. That led him to the CES Letter which he didn't like, and then another member of the ward got him onto Reddit which is where he found the ldsdiscussions site.\nHis wife has been listening to podcasts from Dehlin and Reel and at least right now still feels like the BoM was real but that Joseph was a fallen prophet. Judging from others I've listened to, it's only a matter of time before that shelf collapses completely.\nHe invited my wife and I to have dinner with them at some point... I'd love to do it but doubt my wife would. I think it would be really eye opening for all of us, which is why it's not going to happen anytime soon.\nBut still - I can not get over the coincidences of it all, so I'm feeling like I should go to church tomorrow to participate in F&T about the impossibility of it all and how I know I am on the right path.\nPlease do it! Your mic would likely be turned off as soon as they realized it wasn't actually faith promoting, and you'd probably be escorted off the podium with an invitation to talk to the bishop later, but it's worth a try!\nI don\u2019t think the odds are as small as you assume. As you noted, he was referred to Reddit first. You\u2019ve gotten quite a bit of traction there as an honest review of Saints and the Essays. It\u2019s the first place I point anybody asking where they can get a deeper analysis of them. If they search for the term \u201cSaints\u201d in exmo, the only results they\u2019re likely to get is discussion of the book where ldsdiscussions inevitably comes up.\nAs to your point about his wife, I have to agree. That\u2019s precisely where DW went for a short time (the fallen prophet narrative, BoM is still true, etc). Eventually, she let herself consider whether that was the most likely explanation and also found her way out.\nTread carefully with your wife in this though, she may feel like you\u2019re actively deconverting others now and feel like that\u2019s a bigger sin.\nIt\u2019s like a stone cut from the mountain beginning to roll forth...\nUsers browsing this forum: rincewind and 1 guest",

        "raw_content": "Weiner Didn\u2019t \u201cHumiliate\u201d Huma. He Humiliated Himself.\nAnthony Weiner\u2019s Twitter account is no more, and neither is his marriage. Huma Abedin announced on Monday that she\u2019s leaving her husband of six years, after The New York Post revealed on Sunday night that the \u201cdisgraced ex-congressman has been sexting with a busty brunette out West\u2014and even sent her a lurid crotch shot with his toddler son in the picture.\u201d Her private grief is now headline fodder.\nConservatives responded with punny glee, liberals with pity. But there seemed to be broad agreement, at least among the tabloid newspapers, on this point: Weiner had humiliated his wife.\nHumiliated Huma FINALLY dumps sexting Weiner https://t.co/BYzCSCto9d\n\u201cSure, you can\u2019t spell humiliation without H-U-M-A, but that was none of our business,\u201d wrote the Post\u2019s Kyle Perry.\n\u201cFrankly, Weiner should never have been given so many chances when he publicly humiliated his wife and her boss,\u201d wrote Jaclyn Cashman of the Boston Herald.\nAnd the National Enquirer has affixed the adjective to Abedin\u2019s name as if it were an honorific: \u201cHumiliated Huma Abedin has finally pulled the plug on her marriage...\u201d\nAmerican and British dictionaries are clear about the definition of \u201chumiliate\u201d: \u201cMake (someone) feel ashamed and foolish by injuring their dignity and self-respect, especially publicly.\u201d So when the press refers to Abedin as humiliated, they\u2019re saying Weiner has made her feel ashamed and foolish\u2014and that her dignity and self-respect has been injured in public view.\nOnly one part of that definition is conclusively true here: Weiner\u2019s betrayals have been public. But does Abedin feel ashamed or foolish? Has her dignity and self-respect suffered? We can imagine how we might feel in her situation, but we don\u2019t have any confirmation. And to assume she feels humiliated is to subscribe to the notion that she\u2019s a perpetual victim. It robs her of agency.\nIndeed, \u201chumiliated\u201d has long been used to describe Abedin\u2014ever since Weiner tweeted that first crotch shot five years ago. The word surfaced again earlier this year with the release of Weiner. \u201cHuma is humiliated again in new \u2018Weiner\u2019 doc,\u201d the Post\u2019s Barbara Hoffman declared in her review, which began, \u201cMaybe it was prophetic that her parents named her Huma\u2014close as it is to \u201chumiliated.\u201d\nHoffman, like so many others, only sees in Abedin what she wants to see. \u201cThough she never raises her voice...her body language speaks volumes,\u201d she writes, and later describes \u201cno joy in her eyes, no hint of a smile.\u201d This is a stunning act of confirmation bias. Hoffman casually dismisses Abedin\u2019s composure\u2014which more rationally suggests she\u2019s not humiliated\u2014and ignores the many references in the film to Abedin\u2019s discomfort with being anywhere near a camera or microphone. (She\u2019s notably more at ease in private scenes in the film.)\nThe conviction that Abedin feels humiliated isn\u2019t just subtly sexist; it\u2019s often Islamophobic, too. Hoffman, for instance, noted that Abedin, a Muslim, \u201cspent her Wonder Bread years in Saudi Arabia, hardly a haven of women\u2019s rights.\u201d In 2013, when Weiner\u2019s second sexting scandal broke and Abedin announced she would stay in the marriage, many pundits attributed her decision to her faith.\n\u201cIt\u2019s relevant to point out here by the way...Huma is a Muslim. In that regard, Weiner ought to be able to get away with anything,\u201d Rush Limbaugh said.\n\u201cWhen you puzzle over why the elegant Huma Abedin is propping up the eel-like Anthony Weiner, you must remember one thing: Huma was raised in Saudi Arabia, where women are treated worse by men than anywhere else on the planet,\u201d wrote Maureen Dowd in The New York Times.\nAnd in the National Review, Andrew McCarthy accused Abedin of staying with Weiner only to distract attention from her own alleged ties to \u201cIslamic supremacists.\u201d\nWhatever you think motivated Abedin to stay with Weiner as long as she did, it would be a mistake to underestimate her professional savvy. She may be loyal, as the Clintons attest, but she\u2019s no one\u2019s patsy. She has carefully established a political career that will likely take her to White House, an accomplishment that argues persuasively against the depiction of her as a meek, submissive woman.\nNo one but Abedin, and perhaps her close friends and family, know why she stayed with Weiner until now. Maybe she did it for love, or because she wanted to keep her son\u2019s home intact. Maybe she really believed her husband had changed, or could still change. But we do know that her career\u2014and her reputation\u2014will survive him.\nThe real story of Huma Abedin isn\u2019t about victimhood, then, but quite the opposite: power and independence. She stayed with Weiner when the entire country, it seemed, wanted her to leave him\u2014after he gave up his congressional seat, and after he was demolished in the New York mayoral race. Now she is leaving him when he has nothing left to lose\u2014nothing to lose except his wife, that is. So who\u2019s humiliated now?\nPolitics, Huma Abedin, Anthony Weiner, Feminism, Islamophobia",

        "title": "Is Donald Trump Installing a Mole in the Mueller Probe? | The New Republic",
        "raw_content": "Is Donald Trump Installing a Mole in the Mueller Probe?\nBrian Benczkowski, a former aide to Jeff Sessions, will soon be in a position to share information about the grand jury investigation with the president.\nOn September 28, the Senate Judiciary Committee approved on a party line vote the nomination of Brian Benczkowski to be the head of the Justice Department\u2019s criminal division. The vote put President Donald Trump one step closer to installing a potential mole at the department, with the ability to inform him of any wiretaps or significant developments in special counsel Robert Mueller\u2019s grand jury investigation into the possible ties between Russia and the Trump campaign.\nDuring the committee hearing, Democrats cited a number of reasons to oppose Benczkowski, who was a top aide to Attorney General Jeff Sessions when the former senator ran the Judiciary Committee. Senator Dianne Feinstein noted that Benczkowski, a partner at the firm Kirkland & Ellis, has no prosecutorial experience and almost no experience in a courtroom. Senator Dick Durbin and others argued that he showed \u201creally poor judgment\u201d when he chose to represent Alfa Bank, which has been implicated in the Russia scandal, between his stint on Trump\u2019s transition team and his June nomination to be assistant attorney general. (Alfa Bank came under suspicion after it was discovered that one of its servers had communicated with a server tied to the Trump Organization.)\nSenator Sheldon Whitehouse raised a more specific concern: that Benczkowski might serve as \u201ca back channel source of information\u201d from Mueller\u2019s special counsel investigation to Sessions, who has recused himself from the case. Whitehouse and others fear that having Benczkowski as the head of the criminal division could effectively breach the recusal. But there may be a still bigger risk: Benczkowski could share information about wiretaps and proceedings from the grand jury directly with the president.\nThe cause for concern comes from an old Department of Justice interpretation of the PATRIOT Act. Along with expanding surveillance authorities, the PATRIOT Act permitted any government lawyer to share national security-related grand jury or wiretap information with any government official as long as it would help them perform their job better. The measure was passed in response to the September 11 attacks, with an eye to sharing counterterrorism information more broadly. But the authorization of such sharing explicitly extended to \u201cclandestine intelligence activities by an intelligence service or network of a foreign power or by an agent of foreign power\u201d\u2014precisely the kind of nation-state spying at the heart of the Russian investigation.\nA July 22, 2002, memo from the Justice Department\u2019s Office of Legal Counsel, written by Jay Bybee, the author of the infamous torture memos, held that, under the statute, the president could get grand jury information without the usual notice to the district court. It also found that the president could delegate such sharing without requiring a written order that would memorialize the delegation.\nBybee\u2019s memo relies on and reaffirms several earlier memos. It specifically approves two rationales for sharing grand jury information with the president that would be applicable to the Russian investigation. A 1997 memo imagined that the president might get grand jury information \u201cin a case where the integrity or loyalty of a presidential appointee holding an important and sensitive post was implicated by the grand jury investigation.\u201d And a 2000 memo imagined that the president might need to \u201cobtain grand jury information relevant to the exercise of his pardon authority.\u201d\nIf you set aside Trump\u2019s own role in obstructing the investigation\u2014including the firing of former FBI Director James Comey\u2014these rationales are defensible in certain cases. In fact, the Justice Department has already shared information (though not from a grand jury) with the White House for one of these very reasons. In January, acting Attorney General Sally Yates warned White House Counsel Don McGahn that Russians might be able to blackmail then-National Security Advisor Mike Flynn. As Yates explained in her congressional testimony in May, after Flynn\u2019s interview with the FBI, \u201cWe felt that it was important to get this information to the White House as quickly as possible.\u201d She shared it so the White House could consider firing Flynn: \u201cI remember that Mr. McGahn asked me whether or not General Flynn should be fired, and I told him that that really wasn\u2019t our call, that was up to them, but that we were giving them this information so that they could take action.\u201d\nA similar situation might occur now that the investigation has moved to a grand jury investigation, if someone remaining in the White House\u2014the most likely candidate is the president\u2019s son-in-law, Jared Kushner\u2014were found to be compromised by Russian intelligence. In Kushner\u2019s case, there are clear hints that he has been compromised, such as when he asked to set up a back channel with the Russians during the transition.\nIf Trump were to rely on the memo, he might order a Justice Department lawyer to tell him what evidence Mueller had against Kushner, or whether Mike Flynn or former campaign manager Paul Manafort were preparing to cooperate with Mueller\u2019s prosecutors if they didn\u2019t get an immediate pardon. Unlike Yates, Trump would have an incentive to use such information to undercut the investigation into Russia\u2019s meddling.\nThe special counsel\u2019s office declined to comment for this article.\nThe 2002 memo generally supports the notion that the attorney general should decide whether the president needs to see a particular piece of information. But it also envisions the possibility that lawyers further down the hierarchy might make that decision\u2014including the position Benczkowski has been nominated to fill. \u201cAn attorney for the government may include [in addition to the people actually prosecuting a case] other federal officials within the Department of Justice who gain access to the information under Rule 6(e)(3)(A)(i) in the performance of their law enforcement duties (e.g., the Assistant Attorney General of the Criminal Division \u2026)\u201d\nFurthermore, it asserts that the president may delegate the authority for deciding what grand jury information he might need to know to someone besides the attorney general. And the memo cites an old opinion from the Iran-Contra scandal to argue that the president doesn\u2019t have to memorialize any such delegations in writing. \u201cSuch a directive may be set forth in a formal executive order, in a less formal presidential memorandum, \u2026 or pursuant to an oral instruction from the President to the Attorney General or other appropriate officials.\u201d So Trump could order someone to share information without leaving a paper trail.\nThe risk that Trump might use this memo to spy on Mueller\u2019s investigation has always existed. But it was limited because the Justice Department lawyers with visibility into the investigation\u2014notably Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and acting national security division head Dana Boente\u2014are career prosecutors unlikely to share such information. While Benczkowski did hold a series of senior positions at Justice during the George W. Bush administration, he is fundamentally a political appointee who even worked in the Trump transition team.\nThe Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee all seemed to expect that Benczkowski, in the normal course of affairs, would be consulted in matters affecting Mueller\u2019s investigation. Senator Patrick Leahy scoffed at the September hearing, \u201cThere is no way in God\u2019s green earth that if Mr. Mueller is coming up with prosecutions into the Russian hacking, or into even the banks or anything else, that the Justice Department\u2019s not also gonna look at that to make sure, \u2018Are there other things we need to be prosecuting?\u2019\u201d\nBenczkowski\u2019s close ties to Sessions and his involvement in the transition should be enough to require his recusal from all matters involved in this investigation. That\u2019s before you factor in the possibility that Alfa Bank may play a role in the probe. Still, as Feinstein noted in the hearing, Benczkowski has refused to pledge to recuse himself from the Russian investigation on three different occasions during his confirmation process. Beyond his work for Alfa Bank, Benczkowski said, \u201cthe ethics rules do not require a recusal in those circumstances.\u201d\nBenczkowski has promised an ethical approach. \u201cIf I am confirmed and a matter comes before me in the criminal division where I believe recusal might be warranted,\u201d Benczkowski explained, \u201cI will review the law and the specific facts, consult with career ethics officials at the department, and recuse myself from any matter where such a recusal is appropriate.\u201d\nBenczkowski also promised to adhere to rules, written while he worked with the Bush-era Attorney General Michael Mukasey, limiting contact between the White House and the Department of Justice. \u201cI understand those rules, and I will abide by them,\u201d he said in his July confirmation hearing, \u201clargely because I helped write them and I\u2019ve helped enforce them.\u201d\nHowever, despite these statements, Benczkowski\u2019s nomination remains a risk, partly because there is a lot of murkiness surrounding recusals in the first place. Despite three requests from Whitehouse and Senator Lindsey Graham, the Justice Department still refuses to explain the details of Sessions\u2019s own recusal and to specify who else has access to the investigation. \u201cI have asked Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein repeatedly to explain who at the Department of Justice has access to special counsel Mueller\u2019s investigation,\u201d Senator Whitehouse said in statement. \u201cThe only response I\u2019ve received is that the special counsel \u2018communicates directly with relevant Department components in the exercise of its responsibilities.\u2019\u201d\nNone of these concerns have slowed Benczkowski\u2019s path to the Justice Department, where he could very well serve as Trump\u2019s grand jury mole if he is confirmed by the full Senate. Even the Republicans on the Justice Committee most sincerely concerned about the integrity of the Russian investigation, like Graham, voted to support Benczkowski\u2019s confirmation.\nWhich is why, at the very least, the Justice Department has to finally explain how it is ensuring the independence of Mueller\u2019s investigation. \u201cWe must understand what boundaries protect Mr. Benczkowski from becoming a backchannel source on the special counsel investigation to the recused attorney general or the White House,\u201d Whitehouse insisted. \u201cSo far, we have not and that is very troubling.\u201d\nMarcy Wheeler is an independent journalist who covers national security and civil liberties.\nPolitics, Donald Trump, Robert Mueller, Russia, Jeff Sessions, Brian Benczkowski, Lindsey Graham, Sheldon Whitehouse, Dianne Feinstein, Dick Durbin, Department of Justice, Office of Legal Counsel, Jay Bybee, George W.

        "raw_content": "Missouri is \u201ca relentlessly average state\u201d--according to University of Missouri professor David Robertson--with an economy that mimics the national economy, and demographics similar to the nation as a whole. \u201cMissouri is a natural laboratory\u201d of American politics, Robertson says--if it\u2019s happening there, there\u2019s a good bet it\u2019s happening countrywide. The primaries also echo national trends: Obama and Clinton are tied, pitting the Democratic establishment against the party's \u201cmavericks\u201d and Obama\u2019s strong local organization (which benefits from volunteers out of nearby Illinois). McCain has a solid lead over Romney and Huckabee, who are splitting the conservative vote.\nDelegates: Democrats, 88; Republicans, 58.\nFormat: Proportional, open primary for Democrats. Winner-take-all, open primary for Republicans.\nRecent Polls: The most recent polls were taken February 1-3, showing Obama leading Clinton 47-42 with 12 percent undecided, and McCain leading Huckabee and Romney 35-27-24.\nDemocratic In-State Fundraising: Barack Obama $790,822; Hillary Clinton $738,507.\nRepublican In-State Fundraising: Mitt Romney $842,240; John McCain $239,690; Ron Paul $173,616; Mike Huckabee $124,269.\nEndorsements: Clinton has the support of the Democratic establishment, including figures like Dick Gephardt, whose influential aide Joyce Aboussie is a solid Clinton backer. Obama is riding on support from political figures \u201cwho have succeeded despite the party;\u201d insurgent politicians like Senator Claire McCaskill--who ousted incumbent Democratic Governor Bob Holden in a 2004 primary--are taping ads for Obama, lending him much-needed legitimacy. The St. Louis papers, including the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and the St. Louis American (an important African-American weekly) endorsed Obama, underscoring the recent national shift of blacks to Obama. The Kansas City establishment, including the Kansas City Star and Kansas City Rep. Emanuel Cleaver II, is backing Clinton.\nDemographics: St. Louis, in the east, is a heavily unionized industrial city with a large African-American population now sympathetic to Obama. Kansas City, in the west, is America\u2019s \u201ceasternmost Western town,\u201d with attendant cattle-oriented history. The north mimics rural Iowa, while the rapidly-growing exurbs in the southwest and center of the state are an important source of votes for both parties. According to University of Missouri professor Terry Jones, the state\u2019s Democratic electorate is based in the St. Louis area (split between African-American voters to the north, and suburban whites--who largely support Clinton--to the south, west, and in nearby St. Charles county); in the Kansas City area, where the establishment backs Clinton; and in Boone county, where large numbers of university students may turn out for Obama. One trend to watch is the movement of Democratic men in the suburbs and rural areas towards Obama. Missouri has an open primary, so the Democratic race could be influenced if McCain peels off independent votes from Obama.\nThe conservative southwest is a rapidly growing Republican stronghold with many evangelical families, as are exurban communities like St. Charles County, across the river from St. Louis--areas that should be a bonanza for Huckabee even as Romney struggles to gain the conservative vote.\nGet a rundown of other states at play at TNR's Super Tuesday Primer, updated with new states every day leading up to February 5.",

        "title": "The Expat Factor | The New Republic",
        "raw_content": "The Expat Factor\nOn Super Tuesday, the first votes to be registered in the presidential primaries were not in Georgia, West Virginia, or New Jersey, but in Jakarta, Indonesia--where Barack Obama spent four years of his childhood, and where early polls showed him trouncing Hillary Clinton.\nRight now, thousands of Democrats living abroad are voting online, using a secure website with a personalized 10-digit individual ballot number to log their choices for this year's presidential candidate. Organized by Democrats Abroad, the official overseas arm of the party, this first-ever online \u201cGlobal Primary\u201d will elect 22 delegates, just one less than North Dakota.\nThe vote began on February 5 and will continue until today, February 12, at 10 a.m. GMT--adding international excitement to today's \"Potomac Primary.\" The delegates will be chosen by the same method states use, but with three regions of the world (the Americas; Asia-Pacific; and Europe-Middle East-Africa) functioning like congressional districts. Each of the three districts will elect three delegates each, based proportionally on how their districts voted, with a candidate needing over two-thirds of the vote to win all three delegates in a district. In addition, there will be eight unpledged superdelegates from the membership ranks of Democrats Abroad, and a final five delegates--three pledged to echo the vote totals and two additional superdelegates--elected by the first 17.\nIn a race where every delegate matters, Clinton and Obama are actively courting the Democratic diaspora. Both Michelle Obama and Bill Clinton have made fund-raising trips to England, and Obama himself held three teleconference events with voters in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Beijing. Based on early projections, expatriates are voting in record number this year--and giving money at record levels as well.\nIn 1976, the Overseas Voting Rights Act made it mandatory for every state to provide a way for its former residents to vote in primary and general elections. Any U.S. citizen abroad could vote in his or her state of last residence if that state had a primary (rather than a caucus) system. The Democratic National Committee went further than just enabling international absentee balloting: It gave expats 22 convention delegates to represent their interests as a bloc--a number that has remained constant over the past three decades despite the significant increase in the number of Americans living overseas. (Republicans Abroad is an unofficial arm of the Republican Party, and has no comparable role in the GOP's nominating contest.)\nDemocrats Abroad's new online voting system is just the latest tactic in the group's efforts to boost participation. From 1976 to 1988, Democrats overseas voted by mail for their delegates, drawing scant numbers. In 1992, Democrats Abroad unsuccessfully tried to bolster numbers by using a caucus system in major international cities. But the majority of Democrats could not attend a caucus in an international hub and remained disenfranchised. The only other option--to vote absentee in their home states--was (and remains) difficult. Laws about overseas voting are variable by state, sometimes arcane, and often wildly inconvenient. Most require foreigners to provide a self-addressed, stamped envelope. \u201cWhere do you buy U.S. stamps in Phnom Penh?\u201d asked Democrats Abroad\u2019s Cambodia Chair, Wayne Weightman, who in 2006 paid a friend traveling to the U.S. $50 to pick some up so that his vote would count. He was one of a slim percentage of expats willing to go through the hassle: In 2006, only 992,034 of the four to seven million Americans estimated to be abroad requested ballots--and only about 330,000 were actually cast. Of the remaining uncast votes, a government study found that 70 percent had been returned as \u201cundeliverable\u201d to elections officials.\nAn online system--developed by the San Diego-based software company Everyone Counts--will be used this year in tandem with physical voting stations in major international cities like Jakarta. It will be the first time that \u201cscattered populations\u201d can easily weigh in, say Democrats Abroad officials. And now, residents of countries where democracy is a sensitive subject can vote without offending the sometimes delicate sensibilities of their host countries. \u201cWe don\u2019t want concern that we were advocating democracy in China,\u201d says Joshua Kurtzig, the Beijing head of Democrats Abroad. A Beijing Get Out The Vote event preceding registration was held at a pizza place a stone\u2019s throw from the Worker\u2019s Stadium\u2019s harsh communist statuary, but the group did not put a sign up outside. Gary Suwannarat, Asia-Pacific Regional Vice-Chair of Democrats Abroad, explained that the group established no \u201cpolling centers\u201d of staffed computers in China. \u201cI don\u2019t want some bureaucrat in Beijing to raise an eyebrow,\u201d she said. Elsewhere, she noted, meet-ups have been \u201ccautious about taking a public position or attracting publicity.\u201d In Cambodia, Weightman spoke of a fear that his polling center could be seen as a \u201cgood target,\u201d and that anyone with an anti-American stance might think, \u201cOh, I can hit the American election right here locally.\u201d\nMeet-ups have been organized at foreigner-friendly locales around the world. In Tokyo, expats met at Pizza Mia; in Bangkok, the flavor of home was found at Starbucks; and in Phnom Penh, Americans headed to USA Donuts--a venue chosen, Weightman says, because it's the \u201conly shop in town that serves Red Vine licorice.\u201d At the Beijing Get Out The Vote event, organizers expected about 50 Democrats to show up; instead, hundreds came.\nBased on the number of votes that have come in so far, officials from Democrats Abroad estimate that nearly 20,000 votes will be cast this year--as opposed to the 2,239 they registered in 2004. According to Kurtzig, the number of voters in Beijing alone has at least tripled since the last presidential election.\nSo, with Democrats overseas voting in unprecedented numbers, who stands to rack up the delegates? Expatriates as a community have proved difficult to describe demographically; citizens are not required to tell the government where they are traveling or emigrating to, nor are they required to register with the consulate when they arrive. In 2004, the Census Bureau unsuccessfully attempted an expatriate census, which proved too expensive to execute.\nAspects of the demographics that are known seem to help both of the Democratic candidates. Hillary Clinton may be bolstered by the massive rise of American women overseas--a population that has grown by 16 times between 2001 and 2007. Barack Obama, who has fared particularly well among college students in the U.S., may benefit from the dramatic increase in students living abroad--220,000 in 2006, compared to 90,000 ten years before. Expatriates also seem drawn to Obama\u2019s international experience. \u201cObama\u2019s always been interested in what\u2019s going on in the world outside of America,\u201d says Ben Hart, a Beijing expat participating in the Global Primary. \u201cWe want someone who\u2019s not from the side of the tracks \u2018W.\u2019 was on. \u2026 We know he\u2019s got the worldview required.\u201d\nTo these expats, the Global Primary could not have come at a better time. As the U.S.'s reputation in the world reaches historical lows under the Bush administration, Americans abroad know first-hand the urgency of electing a president who will instantly change the U.S.\u2019s image abroad. Suwannarat says that her experience over the past 38 years in \u201crelatively friendly Thailand\u201d led her to get more involved in the U.S. election: People in Thailand, she says, \u201cno longer reassure me, whenever they tell me the terrible things my government is doing, that they still like Americans on a personal level.\u201d\nIn another important sign of increasing interest, expatriates have been reaching into their wallets in record numbers. As a group, Americans abroad gave $908,000 toward the 2004 general election; they have given $1.4 million toward this year\u2019s primary races alone. Figures provided by the Federal Election Commission last June show that the candidates had made more than 17 times what they had made by this same point in the campaign four years prior from foreign sources. By the end of 2007, Obama had raised more money abroad than Clinton--$462,340 to Clinton\u2019s $435,000--and had collected nearly $150,000 from donors in China alone, the most in history to come from the country. Americans in China for Obama '08, a grassroots group of impassioned supporters, even attempted to take out an advertisement in an Iowa newspaper at the height of the caucuses. The Obama campaign halted them. \u201cThey weren\u2019t sure that a message coming from supporters in China was good for the election then,\u201d says Hart, an organizer for the group. \u201cAnd we understood that.\u201d\nOfficials from Democrats Abroad attribute the sharp rise in donations to the new voting system, which has galvanized expatriates with a new voice in the process. \u201cThe enthusiasm which the candidates have engendered at home is felt abroad as well,\u201d Suwannarat says. Today, the country will learn which candidate will reap the most benefits.\nAdriane Quinlan is a writer based in Beijing.",

        "raw_content": "Read This: Explore the science of Disney\u2019s Animatronic presidents\nThe Hall of Presidents at Disney World and the similar Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln at Disneyland, have, over time, become a clich\u00e9. As immortalized by The Simpsons, they\u2019re the boring, no-line exhibits you drag your kids to when they\u2019re overstimulated by the rides and the candy and the giant talking mice, on the grounds that \u201canything this bad has be educational.\u201d\nThat reaction, though, undersells what technological marvels the presidential Animatronics, especially the one of Walt Disney\u2019s hero Abraham Lincoln, really were. The original Lincoln model was created in 1964, years before the invention of the microprocessor or modern programming languages, and yet it managed to execute a series of extremely complicated movements, including rising from a seated position, that could be recreated perfectly dozens of times a day.\nHow did Disney and his Imagineers pull it off? That\u2019s the subject of a new column by Casey Johnston on Ars Technica, exploring the science of Disney\u2019s Animatronics, from their genesis in a mechanical birdcage that Disney saw and purchased so that he could take it home and see how it worked, to the later refinements developed after his death. Much of the discussion is of audio-based Animatronics, which use specific tones to trigger voltage changes in the servos controlling the models, as well as the bizarre image of Disney Imagineers strapped into full-body metal rigs designed to capture their movements for later use.\nIn the modern era, Animatronics are quaint and obsolete, relegated to jokes or the occasional use as a special effect. Johnston\u2019s column is a reminder of when these mechanical marvels were the state of the art, the product of brilliant people putting forth all their efforts to bring animation into the real world to recreate life in the most realistic way they could imagine.",

        "title": "Georgia Economic Outlook 2011 - UGA Today",
        "raw_content": "Who, What and Where \u2013 More than 800 Atlanta executives, government leaders and University of Georgia alumni are registered for the Georgia Economic Outlook luncheon in Atlanta. The Dec. 15th program at the Georgia World Congress Center is the 28th annual economic forecast luncheon hosted by UGA\u2019s Terry College of Business. Speakers include UGA Provost Jere Morehead, Standard & Poor\u2019s Chief Economist David A. Wyss and Terry College Dean Robert T. Sumichrast.\nThe Georgia and U.S. economic forecasts summarized here were prepared by the Terry College\u2019s Selig Center for Economic Growth.\nThe Georgia Forecast\nAt a glance \u2013 In the forecast prepared by UGA\u2019s Terry College of Business, Dean Robert Sumichrast warned employers and investors against an overabundance of caution. \u201cPeople and businesses are exhibiting an unusual degree of risk avoidance for a recovery that is about one-and-a-half years old,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is the time to take on some calculated risk if you want to benefit fully from the economic recovery and the expansion that will follow.\u201d\nThe Selig Center forecast noted that signs of cautious behavior are evident in the number of major corporations sitting on large cash reserves, in the reluctance of small businesses to hire or otherwise bet on more growth, and in the fact that consumers are saving more and borrowing less. \u201cIf my forecast for sustained economic recovery is correct, then too many people are playing it way too safe,\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cInterest rates are at historical lows, and banks are beginning to lend again. The best loans are often made during economic recoveries. And if you are a business leader, then consider investing some of your cash to raise output.\u201d\nBy the numbers \u2013 Coming out of the recession, Georgia\u2019s economy recovered sluggishly, recording 1 percent growth in 2010. The Selig Center forecasts that Georgia\u2019s economy will sustain the recovery and expand by 2.3 percent in 2011, after adjusting for inflation. The rate of growth in Georgia\u2019s gross domestic product (GDP) will match the nation\u2019s growth rate, which will be the first time in seven years that the state has caught up with U.S. GDP growth. \u201cAs the lingering effects of recent restructuring and the real estate bubble fade, Georgia will begin to outperform the U.S. in 2012,\u201d Sumichrast said.\nBut where\u2019s the growth? The answer is that the forces driving economic growth are fundamentally shifting from public to private sector. \u201cWe\u2019re almost through with government stimulus and inventory building.\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cGoing forward, GDP growth will be based primarily on consumer demand, both foreign and domestic. Now that the baton has been passed to the private sector, the economy is no longer on life support. The recovery has become self-sustaining. But due to weak job growth, it\u2019s almost certain to continue very slowly.\u201d\n2011 ends three years of net job loss \u2013 The odds of finding a job will improve in 2011, though the state\u2019s jobless rate will remain stubbornly high. \u201cGeorgia\u2019s non-farm employment will rise by about 1 percent,\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cThat will be the first annual gain the state has seen since 2007. Wages will rise by about 1.5 percent. The state\u2019s unemployment rate was 9.9 percent in October and will decline to about 9.5 percent at the end of 2011.\u201d\nThe state\u2019s fastest-growing industries in 2011 will be business services and the transportation and warehousing industry. And for the first time in many years, Georgia\u2019s manufacturing industries will be hiring. \u201cMany of these new factory jobs will owe their existence to consumers\u2019 and businesses\u2019 pent-up demand for durable goods,\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cManufacturers of nondurable goods also will be adding to their workforces, but at a slower rate.\u201d\nConsumer spending and savings \u2013 Sumichrast said now is a good time to bet on consumers to spur on the recovery. Consumer spending will increase about 2 percent in 2011, which isn\u2019t great from a historical perspective but is an improvement on the percentage gain in 2010. \u201cConsumers\u2019 tightfisted attitudes won\u2019t change quickly,\u201d he said. \u201cTheir restraint in spending reflects the broad-based deterioration of household finances. As households shifted priorities from spending to savings, the savings rate rose five-fold \u2013 from 1.2 percent in 2005 to 6.0 percent now. But savings are helping households pay off some of their excessive debt.\u201d\nHomebuilding digs out of the ditch \u2013 Home sales will continue to rebound in 2011 and that should allow Georgia\u2019s home prices to stabilize. But the huge inventory of unsold homes will keep a lid on home-price appreciation. The number of new single-family housing permits issued in Georgia increased an estimated 14 percent in 2010. Next year, it\u2019s forecast to increase by almost 21 percent. But even those percentage increases pale in comparison to the plunge in activity that occurred since homebuilding peaked in 2005 (almost a 90 percent drop-off).\n\u201cI believe that Georgia\u2019s prolonged and severe housing bust has run its course,\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cEmployment and personal income growth are expected in 2011. Those new jobs, bigger paychecks \u2013 along with stabilizing home values \u2013 will give more people the wherewithal and the confidence to buy homes. As a result, homebuilding will contribute to Georgia\u2019s economic growth in 2011.\u201d\nAt a glance \u2013 The national economic recovery that began in the second half of 2009 will be sustained through 2011, but the rate of U.S. economic growth, measured as gross domestic product, will slip marginally \u2013 from 2.7 percent in 2010 to 2.2 percent in 2011. This slightly lower growth rate reflects the federal fiscal stimulus, which is dissipating and less spending by many state and local governments, but consumer demand will increasingly drive the forward momentum of the recovery in 2011.\n\u201cMany of the major imbalances that led to the Great Recession have been corrected,\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cAnalysis by our Selig Center indicates that the housing market has fully corrected, non-residential real estate has largely corrected, and the trade deficit has partially corrected. In addition, household balance sheets have improved.\u201d Because these imbalances in the private sector have been eliminated or drastically reduced, the necessary conditions for a double-dip recession are unlikely.\nInterest Rates \u2013 Another reason why Sumichrast called the current climate \u201ca good time to take on some risk\u201d is that the Federal Reserve will continue to support a monetary policy of near-zero percent short-term interest rates until early 2012, as long as the economy doesn\u2019t heat up ahead of the baseline forecast calling for lackluster growth.\n\u201cThe Fed will accomplish that by keeping policy rates low,\u201d Sumichrast said, \u201cand by continuing their second round of large-scale purchases of treasuries. The abundance of liquidity will keep rates low for a while, but I worry about two unintended consequences: significantly higher inflation and significantly higher interest rates in 2013.\u201d\nInflation \u2013 The Selig Center forecast projects consumer price inflation to increase by 2 percent in 2011, compared with 1.5 percent this year. Price inflation appears to have bottomed out in the first quarter of 2009 and is drifting higher. But there are no strong signals that inflationary pressures will be a problem next year. However, the outlook for inflation beyond 2012 is more ominous. According to the forecast, \u201cThe federal debt is skyrocketing in absolute terms and as a percentage of GDP. Despite the lack of a good substitute, the U.S. dollar could gradually lose some of its status as a reserve currency or safe haven. China and other countries with large foreign currency holdings may choose to gradually diversify their portfolios away from U.S. dollar assets.\u201d\nSome threats persist \u2013 For the U.S. economy, the major remaining recessionary risks are that the financial crisis re-intensifies and job growth fizzles out. \u201cPlus, despite ample liquidity, the banking system is still not completely fixed,\u201d Sumichrast said. \u201cBanks are making some new loans, but bank lending is still contracting overall.\u201d And, in Europe, government deficits have grown in the wake of the recession and pose a significant risk to global financial markets. Similarly, the outsized budget deficit in the U.S. cannot be sustained for more than a few years without doing damage to economic growth or forcing interest rates higher to attract the needed capital.\nA SNAPSHOT OF THE SELIG CENTER\u2019S FORECAST FOR 11 INDUSTRY SECTORS\nAnd how they\u2019ll perform in comparison to the other sectors of the economy in 2011:\n\u2022 Direction: Large decrease\n\u2022 Performance: Much worse than most\n\u2022 Direction: Large increase\n\u2022 Performance: Much better than most\n\u2022 Direction: Moderate increase\n\u2022 Performance: Better than most\n\u2022 Direction: Slight increase\n\u2022 Performance: Average\n\u2022 Direction: Moderate decrease\n\u2022 Performance:Worse than most\n\u2022 Direction: Flat\n\u2022 Performance: Below average\n\u2022 Direction: Slight decrease\n\u2022 Performance: Worse than most\nEconomic Policy / Politics News Release Public Policy and Politics Selig Center for Economic Growth Social Issues / Policy Terry College of Business",

        "title": "24 Feb '15 : West Indies vs Zimbabwe : Gayle storm hits Zimbabwe | ICC Cricket World Cup 2015, World Snap News",
        "raw_content": "Canberra : Chris Gayle\u2019s whirlwind 215 quite simply handed the West Indies their second win of the World Cup when they defeated Zimbabwe in a Pool B encounter at the Manuka Oval here Tuesday.\nPowered by the first World Cup double-hundred from Gayle, the West Indies zoomed to 372/2 in their 50 overs in reply to which Zimbabwe were bowled out for 289 in 44.3 overs while chasing a revised target of 363 from 48 overs after a rain delay.\nRecords tumbled as the Jamaican southpaw finally struck form to score his 22nd One-Day International (ODI) century and his first double-hundred. The previous best World Cup individual score was of South Africa\u2019s Gary Kirsten, who scored 188 not out against the United Arab Emirates in 1996.\nThe Windies started on a poor note, losing opener Dwayne Smith (0) on the second ball of the innings. However, it was a pure Gayle and Marlon Samuels (133 not out) show thereon as the next and last wicket, that of the former, fell on the last ball of the innings.\nIn between those 297 deliveries, the left-and-right hand combination smashed the hapless Zimbabwe bowlers all over the park in the Australian capital.\nBoth Gayle, who hadn\u2019t score a century since June 2013, and Samuels were not in the best of forms initially and started slowly. The duo stuck it out in the middle to pick up one and twos and strike a boundary once in a while.\nHowever, they accelerated in the middle overs when the tall and powerful left-hander looked like the Gayle of old, smashing 10 boundaries in his 147-ball innings. His record of 16 sixes is the highest in World Cups and equals the ODI record of AB de Villiers and Rohit Sharma, who is the only individual to have two double hundreds to his name.\nThe last 10 overs caused the maximum damage for Zimbabwe. The African side were hit for an unbelievable 152 runs, propelling the Windies from 220/1 in the 40th over to post a mammoth 373-run target, the fifth highest in Cup history.\nSuch was the impact of Gayle\u2019s fastest ODI double ton, which came off just 138 deliveries, that the patient 133 not out of Samuels looked regular. The 34-year-old went on to score his eighth century and highest ODI total in 156 balls, which included 11 boundaries and three sixes.\nIncluding several other records that were broken, the most significant was that of the collaboration as Gayle and Samuels put together the best partnership in ODI history, 372.\nThe previous best ODI partnership of 331 was between former India greats Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid which they scored in 1999 against New Zealand. The previous best Cup partnership, of 318 runs, was between Sourav Ganguly and Dravid against Sri Lanka, also in 1999.\nThe only respectable figures achieved by a Zimbabwean bowler was of off-spinner Sikandar Raza, who gave away 45 runs from 10 overs and managed the lone maiden of the match.\nIn reply, Zimbabwe batted really well to reach a healthy 289 but to chase the mammoth total was too much to ask from the Africans, whose innings was halted by rain when they were at 18/1 in 2.3 overs.\nZimbabwe too did not start well as they were tottering at 46/3 but significant contributions from the middle-order helped them resurrect their innings and put up a fight as they did against title contenders South Africa in their tournament opener.\nSean Williams (76), Craig Ervine (52) and wicketkeeper-batsman Brendan Taylor (37) took Zimbabwe as they close they could get to the target.\nThe Windies bowlers did not perform as well as their batsmen but somehow managed to bowl out their opponents with pacer Jerome Taylor and captain Jason Holder picking up three wickets. Man-of-the-Match Gayle, with his slow spin, also picked up a couple of wickets which proved to be the icing on the cake for him.\nBrief scores: West Indies 372/2 (Chris Gayle 215, Marlon Samuels 133 not out; Hamilton Masakadza 1/39) beat Zimbabwe 289 in 44.3 overs (Sean Williams 76, Craig Ervine 52, Brendan Taylor 37; Jerome Taylor 3/38, Jason Holder 3/48).\n\u2190 21 Feb \u201915 : Pakistan drops 3 catches against West Indies [Video]\n25 Feb \u201915 : Ireland vs UAE 16th Match : Ireland beat UAE by two wickets \u2192",

        "title": "Episode Eighteen: Some Thoughts On The Illustrated Primer, Fax Your GP : Things That Have Caught My Attention",
        "raw_content": "Episode Eighteen: Some Thoughts On The Illustrated Primer, Fax Your GP\nSo here\u2019s an observation: if you promise that you\u2019ll get an episode of a newsletter out on what is for you, effectively, a holiday, you\u2019re just going to spend most of the day stressed about it. So on Friday last week, I probably shouldn\u2019t have said that I\u2019d get one out today (Presidents Day \u2013 my fifteen seconds of Googling is unclear about the requirement or placement of an apostrophe).\nAnd, it turns out, the mid-life parenting equivalent of recovering from a bender the night before, and instead is recovering from a 12pm to 3pm open house first birthday party. The place is a mess, a wreck and we\u2019re all incredibly tired and loud noises (like, say, one year olds) are \u2013 shall we say \u2013 *piercing*.\nSo. Today\u2019s episode is both late, and short.\n1. The Illustrated Primer\nI mentioned the other day on Twitter that one of the things I\u2019ve been vaguely working toward (and that I know some of my friends have also been working toward) in the grand scheme of \u201cNeal Stephenson Thinks He\u2019s Writing Books But He\u2019s Actually Writing Product Specifications Or In Some Cases, If You String Them Together, Business Plans\u201d has been The Young Lady\u2019s Illustrated Primer (\u201cThe Primer\u201d), from his book The Diamond Age. If you haven\u2019t read The Diamond Age, then you probably should right now, etc. etc.\nThe thing about a lot of descriptions of product in science fiction books (or, well, any fiction) I suppose is that in some instances they\u2019re quite *clear* and quite easy to imagine, especially if you\u2019ve aligned yourself with the right kind of writer. I don\u2019t necessarily mean the infodump Tom Clancy (or, let\u2019s be honest, Neal Stephenson) type of writer, but there have always been some turns of phrase (Heinlein\u2019s seminal \u201cthe door irised open\u201d springs to mind), or some constructions of atmosphere that have been just so required to bring a fictional product to life.\nWith The Primer (and it pains me that all my American readers are pronouncing it the way Jodie Foster does in Contact, which, again, another movie you should etc. etc.), Stephenson\u2019s worldbuilding extends all the way through from a physical description of the design and manufacture of the product: its codename and its assembly, the tools used in its design (that, did you notice? Provide direct, haptic-driven feedback? And provide instant feedback in terms of prototyping?) and the types of teams used in that design (farming out the battery design, for example) through to its literal assembly in a 3D printer. And then: the supporting infrastructure where, ultimately, what Stephenson is describing is just a little bit like what some people might now call a MOOC[1] because what he\u2019s been doing has been trying to get from one-off \u201cbespoke\u201d app, a la Dave Morin, through to the education-as-a-service system for, well, an entire country.\n(The nice thing about doing these newsletters is that, because I\u2019m figuring things out as I literally type them, the direct line between what Stephenson\u2019s been doing with The Primer into Education As A Service and something that\u2019s going to be Disrupted, has never been so clear in my mind up until about fifteen seconds ago.)\nEverything from cryptographically secure networks, 3D printers, stay-at-home, second-job zero-hour workers like the Ractors and those who decide to take biological augmentation in order to get ahead in their jobs. There\u2019s something crackly about early Stephenson work like those two books (Diamond Age and Snow Crash) which just isn\u2019t in his later work, and I wish there were something similarly, well, knitted-together. I would even forgive the Surprise! Stephenson! Endings!\nLet me put it this way: (practically) all of the technology is there, right now, for the production of something like The Primer. What there isn\u2019t (and there\u2019s always a catch, isn\u2019t there) is the business model. Which, honestly, must be easy to figure out.\nYou\u2019ve got: cheap(ish), free(ish) tablets with network access. You\u2019ve got cheap(ish), educated(ish) labour in terms of a whole bunch of high-school educated people who are sitting at home with cheap(ish), reliable(ish) internet access. And, uh, you\u2019ve got, a broken education system.\nHonestly, in a world where Amazon can practically give away tablets that are just about good enough, and you can tap a button and instantly be connected to a hot redhead, why can\u2019t we have The Primer?\n[1] Massively Open Online Course\n2. Fax Your GP\nA long time ago, some friends in the UK made something called Fax Your MP[1] and I\u2019m going to make up some of the history behind it because it\u2019s 10pm and it\u2019s easier for me to do that than actually look it up. The internet was supposed to be a great leveler \u2013 something that would connect us to each other, and more importantly, with those who represent us in government. It turned out that it didn\u2019t \u2013 at least, it didn\u2019t in the UK in the mid to late 90s. In fact, those who decided to try and email their MPs were met with a mixture of both disdain (ie, what kind of people use email in the mid to late 90s) and ignorance (emails were purposely treated, I think, as Not An Approved Method Of Correspondence). Instead, to make sure that your voice was heard by your MP, you could probably a) write a letter (already reduced to a self-selected set of angry green ink letter writers), b) go to a \u201csurgery\u201d (further reduced to the set of people who don\u2019t have jobs, don\u2019t have any green pens and do have an abundance of time) or c) by fax.\nWell, there\u2019s a thing. Faxes are basically confused modems, and if an unconfused modem can be plugged into a computer, then the internet can talk to a computer that can pretend to be a confused modem and before you knew it there was a web-to-fax gateway that positively forced MPs to engage with their constituents.\nYou can probably guess what happened next: some MPs protested that faxes sent via the service didn\u2019t count because, well\u2026\nAnyway. More recently, there\u2019s news that the UK government is constructing a new centralised healthcare database. There are, as the Fax Your GP site points out, both good sides and bad sides to this[2], but the one thing that everyone should be able to agree on is that the opt-out procedure is almost predictably bad: ie, centrally, the advice is that you should let your GP \u201cknow\u201d, and the precise methods are left up to the specific GP practice. Which is, shall we say, unclear and unhelpful to, oh, everyone.\nHence, Fax Your GP. A simple web to fax gateway that generates the opt-out documentation and faxes it to your GP.\nThere is literally no excuse (and here is where *I* break out my green ink) for this type of service of infrastructure to not exist *in this day and age*. Where the UK\u2019s GDS is doing stellar work in bringing to life public services in a useful and accessible way, it\u2019s a crying shame that volunteers have to step up to allow this sort of government interaction. In fact, given *quite how easily* the Fax Your GP team have been able to bring up their service, one is effectively forced to wonder if the lack of such a service was designed into the policy in the first place.\nAll of which, I\u2019m sure, helps engender trust in the leadership of the NHS in the first place.\nAnd so on one hand we have Flood Hack[3], with the official backing of the Prime Minister, and on the other hand, we have Fax Your GP with no backing whatsoever and pointing out a rather insulting hole in the delivery of policy.\nYes, you\u2019re right. I\u2019m angry.\nAnd this is just going to happen more. Because the more a government is unable to deliver basic services and apply its policy in a usable manner, the more people are going to notice the cognitive dissonance every time their interaction with government is effectively reduced to this wonderful quote about a planning notice:\n\u201cBut look, you found the notice, didn\u2019t you.\u201d\n\u201cYes,\u201d said Arthur. \u201cYes, I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying \u2018Beware of the Leopard\u2019.\u201d\nGovernment bureaucracy has always been absurd. Hopefully, that absurdity is just going to get more clear.\n[1] http://www.faxyourmp.org.uk\n[2] https://www.faxyourgp.com/about-us\nIt\u2019s 10:34pm on a Monday night, and it\u2019s back to work tomorrow. See you then.\nAs ever, I appreciate any and all feedback. Please do drop me a line if there are things that you\u2019ve seen that you like, or, that you haven\u2019t liked.",

        "title": "Edison International Reports Second-Quarter Financial Results | Edison International",
        "raw_content": "Edison International Reports Second-Quarter Financial Results\nROSEMEAD, Calif., August 8, 2006\u2014\nEdison International (EIX) recorded earnings per common share of 54 cents in the second quarter of 2006 compared to 61 cents in 2005, down 7 cents primarily due to non-core items.\nExcluding earnings from discontinued operations and other non-core items, core earnings per share were 55 cents in the second quarter of 2006, up one cent over the same period last year. This increase was primarily driven by improved results from the independent power business, partially offset by gains recorded in 2005 from an Edison Capital infrastructure fund investment.\nSecond Quarter 2006 Highlights:\nEarnings per common share \u2013 $0.54\nNet Income \u2013 $177 million\nRevenue \u2013 $3.0 billion\nAssets \u2013 $35.2 billion\nEquity \u2013 $7.1 billion\nSECOND-QUARTER EARNINGS SUMMARY\nFor the quarter ended June 30, 2006, Edison International recorded consolidated earnings of 54 cents per share, compared to 61 cents per share for the same period last year. Excluding earnings from discontinued operations and other non-core items, Edison International\u2019s second-quarter core earnings were 55 cents per share in 2006, compared to 54 cents per share in the same period in 2005.\n\u201cSecond quarter core earnings which include results from the 2006 General Rate Case decision were solid,\u201d commented John E. Bryson, chairman and CEO, Edison International. \u201cThe experience of the heat storm just two weeks ago demonstrated the importance of that decision in supporting our planned continued record levels of capital investment in the utility\u2019s distribution and transmission system.\u201d\nSouthern California Edison Company\u2019s (SCE) earnings from continuing operations were $234 million in the second quarter of 2006, an increase of $73 million compared to the second quarter of 2005. SCE\u2019s results include an $81 million, or 25-cents-per-share, one-time benefit from resolution of an outstanding state income tax issue. Excluding non-core items, SCE\u2019s second-quarter 2006 core earnings were $153 million compared to $157 million in the second quarter of 2005. This change reflects the net impact of higher revenue at SCE associated with the implementation of the 2006 General Rate Case (GRC) decision and the return on investment earned by SCE\u2019s Mountainview plant, more than offset by higher operating and income tax expenses. SCE received the 2006 GRC decision in May, allowing the company to recover its net revenue back to early January, which was recorded in the second quarter. Also, as a result of the seasonality of the company\u2019s sales, along with the rate design approved in the GRC decision, SCE\u2019s base rate revenue will be higher in the third quarter compared to the other three quarters of 2006.\nEdison Mission Group\u2019s (EMG) 2006 second-quarter loss from continuing operations was $56 million, down $81 million from results in the same period last year. As a part of EMG, Mission Energy Holding Company\u2019s (MEHC) second-quarter 2006 loss of $60 million includes an after-tax charge of $88 million, or 27 cents per share, reflecting the early extinguishment of debt related to Edison Mission Energy\u2019s bond refinancing. Excluding this charge, MEHC\u2019s core earnings were $28 million, an improvement of $26 million over the second quarter of 2005. The increase is primarily due to higher wholesale energy margins mainly driven by higher prices at the Illinois Plants and Homer City, an estimated insurance recovery at Homer City related to the Unit 3 outage, and higher net interest income, partially offset by higher taxes. Earnings in the second quarter of 2006 for Edison Capital, also part of EMG, were $4 million compared to $23 million in the second quarter of 2005. This decrease is primarily due to Edison Capital's share of income from its investment in the Emerging Europe Infrastructure Fund which recorded a gain in the second quarter of 2005.\nEarnings from Discontinued Operations\nEdison International\u2019s earnings from discontinued operations were $4 million in the second quarter of 2006 compared to $21 million in the same period last year. The 2006 and 2005 earnings resulted primarily from distributions received related to the Lakeland project.\nEarnings (Loss) Per Common Share (Unaudited)\nMission Energy Holding Company\nEdison Mission Group Total\nEIX (parent) and other\nEIX Consol. Earnings from Continuing Operations\nTotal EIX Consolidated Earnings\nEdison International recorded consolidated earnings per share of $1.32 for the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, compared to $1.23 for the same period last year. Edison International had earnings from continuing operations of $1.08 per share for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, compared with $1.15 per share for the same period last year. Excluding earnings from discontinued operations and other non-core items, Edison International\u2019s core earnings for the six-month period were $1.10 per share in 2006, compared to $1.19 per share in the same period in 2005.\nSCE\u2019s earnings from continuing operations in the first half of 2006 were $355 million, an increase of $63 million compared to the same period last year. SCE\u2019s results include an $81 million one-time benefit from the resolution of an outstanding state income tax issue. Excluding non-core items, SCE\u2019s core earnings were $274 million compared to $288 million in the same period last year as the higher base rate revenue authorized by the 2006 GRC, and the earnings from SCE\u2019s Mountainview project, were more than offset by higher operating and income tax expenses. Also, as a result of the seasonality of the company\u2019s sales, along with the rate design approved in the GRC decision, SCE\u2019s base rate revenue will be higher in the third quarter compared to the other three quarters of 2006.\nEMG\u2019s earnings from continuing operations for the first six months of 2006 were $17 million, down $85 million from the same period last year. Excluding non-core items, MEHC\u2019s core earnings were $86 million, an increase of $42 million. This increase primarily reflects higher wholesale energy margins mainly driven by higher prices at the Illinois Plants, higher net interest income, and higher energy trading income, partially offset by higher taxes. Edison Capital\u2019s earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2006, were $19 million, down $54 million from the same period last year when results included gains from its Emerging Europe Infrastructure Fund investment.\nMEHC\u2019s equity in income from its energy projects is seasonal and therefore materially higher in the third quarter compared to other quarters of the year, due to warmer weather during the summer months and because a number of MEHC\u2019s energy projects located on the West Coast have power sales contracts that provide for higher payments during the summer months.\nEdison International\u2019s earnings from discontinued operations were $77 million for the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, compared to $28 million for the same period last year, with both years\u2019 earnings resulting primarily from distributions from MEHC\u2019s Lakeland project.\nYear-to-Date June 30,\nSince the first quarter of 2006, the results of MEHC, Edison Capital and other smaller subsidiaries have been presented on a consolidated basis as EMG. This change was made to reflect the integrated management of MEHC and Edison Capital. In addition, effective April 2006, the wind assets and biomass power project previously owned by Edison Capital were transferred to MEHC. The transfer was applied retrospectively, in accordance with accounting rules.\nReminder: Edison International Will Hold a Conference Call Today\nToday, Edison International will hold a conference call to discuss its second-quarter 2006 financial results at 8 a.m. (Pacific time). Although two-way participation in the telephone call is limited to financial analysts and investors, all other interested parties are invited to participate in a \u201clisten-only\u201d mode through a simultaneous webcast on the company\u2019s web site at www.edisoninvestor.com.

        "raw_content": "Thursday 20 August 2015 by Barry Carter\nRecommending Breaking Bad to others the only charitable thing millennials do, finds study\nRaising awareness for the AMC series Breaking Bad has now overtaken charitable donations as the most virtuous thing that millennials do for strangers.\nPrevious generations had Ban the Bomb, Comic Relief and Live Aid, but now a new study has found that insisting that others binge watch Bryan Cranston\u2019s career defining vehicle Breaking Bad is what modern-day altruism looks like.\nThe paper from the The Center for Compassion And Altruism Research at Stanford University has discovered that while charitable donations and volunteer work is an at all-time low, it is almost impossible to mention you haven\u2019t seen the hit series without benevolent 18-35 year-olds insisting you stop everything you are doing to get started on series one.\nProfessor Richard Hogarth, who conducted the study, explained the findings:\n\u201cWhile poverty, hunger and the environment have always been the main focus of charitable campaigns, in 2015 not being in the loop when friends call each other \u2018Bitch\u2019 or knowing what \u2018Heisenberg\u2019 refers to is the fastest growing problem of our time.\u201d\n\u201cIn particular this year we are finding some people from deprived areas watch Better Call Saul before having watched Breaking Bad.\u201d\n\u201cOf course we know it\u2019s a prequel, but how on earth are you supposed to get the clever little references? It really is a tragedy.\u201d\nEmily Darwin, a 23-year-old Assistant Manager from Dudley, is one such campaigner dedicating her spare time to fighting this epidemic.\nShe told us, \u201cYesterday a homeless man asked me for some spare change and I asked him if he was going to use the money to buy methamphetamine.\u201d\n\u201cWhen he replied that he didn\u2019t know what that was, I couldn\u2019t stand idly by anymore.\u201d\n\u201cRather than give him cash, I gave him the link to sign up for a free 30-day trial at Netflix, where you can watch all five series easily in a month.\u201d\n\u201cThe complete box set is \u00a350 on Amazon, so it really is a bargain.\u201d\n\u201cObviously you don\u2019t get the DVD extras including director\u2019s commentary and deleted scenes, but it\u2019s a start.\u201d\nPrevious post: Christmas advertising to start tomorrow\nNext post: Jeremy Clarkson criticises Amazon\u2019s treatment of staff as \u2018overly benevolent\u2019",

        "raw_content": "This Is the Last Righteous Generation\nThe World That Then Was\nThe winds of history have shifted on your watch. If the Lord tarries, you can tell your grandchildren that you lived through the last righteous generation before the moral apocalypse. You are experiencing the transition, and the reculturalization of the entire world is nearly complete.\nI am not a prophet, nor the son of a prophet. Nor am I discouraged as was Elijah when he cried out, \u201cI, even I only, am left.\u201d The reality is that you\u2014and every generation before you\u2014were raised in one era, but your young children will come to maturity in an entirely different world, the likes of which has never existed before. You have made a heroic effort to shield them, but Satan has released his weapon of mass destruction. It is not measured in megatons, but in megabits.\nTwenty years ago we were able to place our children beyond the reach of Sodom by homeschooling them, but I now see depravity spreading from one Christian homeschool family to the next. The moral shift you are witnessing is much like that of Lot. One day Lot and his children were walking through the wilderness with Abraham, part of a pilgrimage of faith, and the next day they were living in the midst of a culture of perversion and violence. Granted, you have not moved to Sodom, but Sodom has moved to you, one byte at a time. Like Lot, we already vex our righteous souls \u201cfrom day to day with their unlawful deeds\u201d (2 Peter 2:8).\nFor 2,000 years Christian families have sought to protect their children from undesirable elements and unnecessary temptations. You have built a fence and kept out the bad dogs, wolves, and other threatening varmints. But there is a new threat that is airborne; it comes in \u201cthe cloud,\u201d and it is almost impossible to prevent your children from being exposed. The pandemic spreads so quickly because children can catch the moral plague secondhand from other children who may not yet manifest outward symptoms. It is a disturbing fact that your children indirectly access Sodom through other children who live in Sodom. And church is as good a place as any to be exposed. \u201cIf the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?\u201d (Psalm 11:3).\nConfession of a Pornography Addiction that Started at Age 9\nDear Debi Pearl,\nI debated whether to write to you, and decided it couldn\u2019t hurt. I have read your books and articles and feel you have the gift of wisdom. I am desperate to know what to do. I am a homeschooling mom of four and a wife of nine years. I married a wonderful, godly man. I had hoped he would save me from myself. I thought marriage would fix my sexual obsession; instead, in all these years of marriage, every touch from my husband has caused me fear and revulsion. He had no idea what he was marrying. He thought I was his dream come true. I was raised in a God-fearing home, so how could he guess what I was? I am deeply ashamed to admit the truth. I was nine years old when I was introduced to porn. Those couple of minutes changed me forever. I can only remember one image, but it is forever seared in my mind. From that first encounter I have lived for porn and the self-gratification that goes with it. By the time I married I had been active with myself for many years, and the habit was consuming. I know it is gross.\nIt breaks my husband\u2019s heart. At first he was shocked, horrified, and repulsed. After a while he started to cry and beg me to stop my porn use and what goes with it. He has tried to get me help, but I can\u2019t tell the truth of why I don\u2019t want him as a man, and he is ashamed to tell the truth as it is so vulgar. I know that my female needs are from God to be met by my husband, but my brain is so programmed that all I have with him is fear. Sometimes an evil oppression sweeps over me causing imaginations that are perversions involving things best not said. They are almost like a safe haven.\nNo one would ever guess. I live in fear of hell, yet everyone I go to church with thinks I am a Christian because I serve God. The love of God and the love of my husband haven\u2019t been enough to set me free. I have cried over my sin, which has many times driven me to depression, panic attacks, and anger toward those who love me. I have hurt my husband a thousand times. He tries to just live day to day for the kids\u2019 sake. I totally control my husband because I NEED to control. It is like, if I can control his every thought then I can control this demon driving me, but instead I am more out of control than ever. I don\u2019t want the future to be a repeat of my past. I need help to overcome this awful habit. Satan has a stronghold in my life and has since I was nine years old. For twenty-five years I have allowed the walls of this fortress to stand around me, and I despair I will ever be free.\nDear Reader, view my video series, Science of Addiction and the Brain. It will be of tremendous help.\nThe advent of the web with ready access to porn has changed the dynamics of temptation and the degree of immersion into the worst perversions known to man, and there is no going back. According to a 2013 Common Sense Media study, 83% of five- to eight-year-olds know how to use a smartphone or tablet. Add to that the $3-billion mobile porn industry, and experts say exposure is inevitable. \u201cIf they have a phone, it\u2019s likely that they\u2019ll get exposed to pornography,\u201d said Todd Olson, co-founder of LifeStar Network. Or they will be shown it. Olson said that \u201ca few years ago the average age of first exposure was eleven\u2014now it\u2019s nine.\u201d\nGoldsmith, a therapist, has treated children in the first, second, and third grades who have been exposed to pornography. \u201cWe\u2019re seeing, even with four- and five-year-olds, a sophistication with sexuality that we\u2019ve never seen before,\u201d Goldsmith said. \u201cOnce they\u2019ve seen that, kids want more. There is an addictive quality that we know about seeing pornography.\u201d Olson says of children, \u201cThey\u2019ll misuse it, and then they\u2019ll abuse it. Then they become dependent on that. Then they become addicted.\u201d\n74% of children have access to the Internet at home.\n98% have access to the Internet somewhere.\n24% have access to broadband (high-speed Internet) at home.\n19% have access to the Internet in their bedroom.\n24% rely on school as the main source of Internet access.\nThe greatest sorrow, the most shocking and horrible of all statistics, is that a quarter of all web use is porn, and of that, 48% of porn downloads are far outside the sexual mainstream, depicting bestiality, incest, and pedophilia. Imagine what such images would do in the mind of a young child, and then know that you have far underestimated the damage. What does it do to the worldview of an eight-year-old to have his first exposure to sex be graphic images of adults having sex with children and animals? I am sickened to even write about it. Damn the entire pornography industry and most of Hollywood. May a disease worse than AIDS sweep through the porn industry and decimate their ranks with the same level of destruction God rained on Sodom and Gomorrah. Don\u2019t doubt it; that is a prophetic prayer.\n\u201cBut whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea\u201d (Matthew 18:6).\nOne child behaviorist says, \u201cUnfortunately, the question seems to be no longer if our children will be exposed to pornography but when\u2014and how they will cope.\u201d The letters we receive at NGJ reveal that the damage done in the hearts and minds of children exposed to porn is horrific and long-lasting, and it affects every area of their lives.\nThe American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers reports that 56% of divorce cases involve one party having \u201can obsessive interest in pornographic websites.\u201d\n\u201cHaving eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children . . . who loved the wages of unrighteousness\u201d\n(2 Peter 2:14\u201315).\n\u201cFor all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof . . .\u201d (1 John 2:16\u201317).\nFlee . . . Where?\nJust yesterday, I went to visit an old friend who has protected his children from the world. The boys, ranging from about three years old to nineteen, work with their father on a farm, always busy driving tractors, mending fences, and repairing farm equipment. But as I drove down the driveway to leave, there was his young son, about twelve years old, sitting on the tractor parked at the end of the row, talking with a sixteen-year-old that I would not allow to be alone with my dog (literally, not figuratively). His foul mouth is the first indication of where his heart is. But this father believed his son to be safe, not knowing that the devil was chatting him up at that very moment. I am sure there was a cell phone in the sixteen-year-old\u2019s pocket. How long would it take to expose the young farm boy to the darkest, most deviant debauchery? About ten to fifteen seconds. And he would never be the same\u2014NEVER!\nIt is significant that the evil comes on the net\u2014the Internet. \u201cThou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins [the lower abdomen, groin, and genitalia]\u201d (Psalm 66:11). \u201cThe wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit\u201d (Proverbs 12:12). \u201cThe heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken\u201d (Psalm 9:15). God is a wordsmith, creating associations from ancient texts that have profound modern application.\nDear Mr. Pearl,\nThis letter is in reference to your article of Jan/Feb 2015 called \u201cThe Sodom Generation.\u201d It really hit home.\nWe have been married thirty years and have seven children. Years ago we decided we wanted our children to have a better, safer environment than what we found in a traditional church. We joined a very conservative Mennonite church. Fast forward . . . as our children began getting close to the mid-teens we made the decision that they would not have cell phones until age eighteen. It just offered too much temptation.\nSomewhere, someone must have opened up his phone to our second son, because he developed an overwhelming desire to have one. Unknown to us, he rode his bike over ten miles to buy one. Before we found out, it had consumed him. We found it and destroyed it. He managed to get another. We found it, but he got another. He spent all his time on it and even refused to do school. Long story short, he left home at sixteen.\nOur daughter did wait until she turned eighteen to get a phone, and she hasn\u2019t been off of it since. She has no life, never goes outside, has men sending her nude photos, etc. It is a private, disgusting world parents know nothing about. We filtered our Internet, but our younger daughter bought a secret router in order to play in her ugly, trashy world of make-believe.\nAnd we are not alone. The conservative Mennonites who wouldn\u2019t have a TV or radio in their home now download R-rated films on their phones. Our safe environment is gone. It seems to be a losing battle.\nThis is an awful time to be raising a family. My husband says he feels it is honestly an end-time onslaught by Satan. If only young parents could see ahead. Is there any hope?\nChurch is no longer a sanctuary. Just about a month ago I was a guest speaker in a church on Sunday morning. As I was speaking, I saw four boys, twelve to fourteen years old, on the back row passing a cell phone around and laughing at the content on the screen. By means of a cell phone, children show other children vivid video of orgies involving multiple adults, children, and animals. Things that were illegal in a porn house forty years ago are now on television, available in virtually every home, and sometimes viewed in church while the preacher is preaching.\nTelevision and videos are just the gateway drug; the smartphone and computer are the mainline, hard-core poison of choice. There was a time when one had to be a sailor on leave in Bangkok, Thailand to see a small portion of what is now available to every child in America. And children are better at operating the gadgets than are their parents.\nWithout question, your children will abide in a world that is fifty shades darker than it has ever been. If six thousand years of moral history could be put on a graph, you would see an inverted bell curve that plunged downward in the past fifteen years, and it is now off the page. The devil has his feet propped on his desk and is laughing as he surfs the web. It looks like he has won. Believers have become ashamed of the words of God (Luke 9:26), discarding the inspired words of God for counterfeit versions, and with the saints disarmed the progressive left is feeding on the dying flesh of the lukewarm Laodicean church as it brags about its prosperity and relevance to today\u2019s culture (Revelation 3:14\u201318).\nDon\u2019t You Trust Your Children?\nIt is heartbreaking to have parents come with their defeated stories of discovering their children engaged in sodomy or incest. Even as I regularly warned them to be vigilant, I have had parents say to me, \u201cBut I trust my children.\u201d The devil\u2019s greatest weapon is parents\u2019 confidence in the incorruptibility of their children.\nMany times over the last thirty-five years as I have discussed this subject, I have been challenged\u2014sometimes publicly\u2014with a question from the audience: \u201cBut don\u2019t you trust your children?\u201d I have answered with an incredulous laugh, \u201cOf course I do not trust my children; they are flesh\u2014sinful flesh, lustful flesh, sons of fallen Adam.\u201d I trust that my children are like I was when I was a young teenager. I would have seized every opportunity to view any titillating images available to me. And I was raised in church, saved at an early age, and was the most dedicated Christian I knew. But I was sixteen years old before I would have even felt a compelling need to exercise self-denial. Thank God, little was available to me as I was growing up.\nIf you think my estimation of the severity of the moral shift is rooted in ignorance of the past, you are mistaken. I am in my seventieth year on this earth, and I have not lived a protected life. Since I was a teenager, I have preached in bars, hippie coffeehouses, homeless shelters, street and military ministries, and boys\u2019 homes, and spent over 2,000 hours in prisons ministering to the worst of the worst. I have been in a drug house where everyone was naked, and I have sat on the curb talking to prostitutes. I have seen sodomites and lesbians come to faith in Christ and be completely delivered from years of perversion. I have seen a number of devil-possessed people be freed from the spirits and then overcome the Wicked One.\nYes, there has always been some form of erotic depiction available to the very few who could travel to where it was displayed and who wanted to risk their reputations viewing it, but children were spared by the very geography of it. The glaring difference that has come upon us is that the debauchery that once was only found in the big city is now in the hands of nearly every child. Psychologists tell us that what we have today in the form of moving pictures in high resolution with lifelike sound has exceeded the sensual stimulation of the real thing. There has never been a time in history when an adult or a child could view all forms of pornography on a daily basis, much less images that are more real than life. I have heard men say they would rather watch the Super Bowl on television than sit in the stands, because with the various camera angles and close-up shots of the action, they are more intimately involved in the game. We live in a new age, and it \u201cis the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death\u201d (Proverbs 7:27).\nSo it is from a perspective of being well informed that I tell you we have entered a new dispensation, the likes of which has never existed in any place on earth at any time in history. It is perilous to the family and will be the final ruin that causes God to come down as he did in the days of Sodom when he said, \u201cI will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me . . .\u201d (Genesis 18:21). When God viewed the earth in the days of Noah, he said, \u201cthe end of all flesh is come before me . . .\u201d (Genesis 6:13). I do think the end of sinful flesh is once again come up before the Righteous Judge.\nThe infallible Holy Scriptures have foretold just such a time. \u201cThis know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves [pornography encourages a person to make love to himself], covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away\u201d (2 Timothy 3:1\u20135).\nSome men become so deceived they somehow think looking is of no consequence, but God describes the pornographer as \u201cHaving eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children\u201d (2 Peter 2:14).\nWhen I read the statistics on the number of children exposed to pornography, and knowing that \u201cA little leaven leaveneth the whole lump\u201d (Galatians 5:9), I am conflicted. On the one hand, I feel a deep discouragement like I have never felt before. I think, what good is it for me to teach men the Bible, or how to raise kids, when they are engaged in pornography?\nOn the other hand, we read, \u201c. . . for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition\u201d (2 Thessalonians 2:3). We live in the era of \u201cfalling away,\u201d indicating the Judge of all the earth is about to come \u201c[i]n flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power\u201d (2 Thessalonians 1:8\u20139). Sounds good to me!\nThere is hope, the blessed hope of his glorious appearing (Titus 2:13). And until then there is hope for those who choose to live godly lives. \u201cIn the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world\u201d (John 16:33). He has overcome the world. Therefore, \u201cThe Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished\u201d (2 Peter 2:9). Our deliverance comes when we \u201c. . . put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof\u201d (Romans 13:14). I have already done a thorough work on how believers overcome sin. It is found in the audio series Sin No More. Hundreds have testified of becoming born again and of being able to cease the sin that beset them. Get this series and listen to it carefully. If you cannot afford it, I will send it to you for free. Just call and say, \u201cI cannot afford to buy the series; please send me a copy.\u201d You don\u2019t need to apologize or try to convince us of your financial condition. We are ready to serve you freely.\nThe big question you ask is, \u201cHow do I make sure my children are not exposed to pornography?\u201d\nThey cannot go to public schools or any private school that allows the children to possess cell phones or access the web.\nDo not allow your children to possess any online device or to know any passwords for your devices.\nDo not allow your children to operate any online media, including Netflix, unless you are looking at the screen with them the entire time. Two minutes out of the room and you may lose them to hell\u2019s cocktail. Parents are so na\u00efve.\nDo not allow your children to freely associate with any child whose family does not maintain the same safeguards.\nExplain to them the very things I have revealed in this article. Warn them of Satan\u2019s devices. Explain to them the prevalence and power of pornography.\nProvide an example of holy matrimony and dangle before them the promise of a pure love relationship one day if they keep themselves holy. Make sure they appreciate the precious and the profane for what they are. In the end, the best defense you can instill in your youth is the desire for a virtuous life.\nNever trust your children, and don\u2019t trust your spouse if any activity seems to be suspicious. My wife and my staff have complete access to my computer. The main server is beyond my reach. It maintains complete records of all my activity. I am never locked in a room by myself to \u201cdo my work without being disturbed.\u201d I don\u2019t own a cell phone, but if I did my wife and my staff would be on the account and be able to review all my activities. If any adult is less open than I describe, they are porno freaks that need to repent. Don\u2019t doubt it. \u201cProvide things honest in the sight of all men\u201d (Romans 12:17).\nEngineered Lifestyle\nI don\u2019t have space to say more, but now and in the near future there will be only one way to save your children from Sodom. You must move far away from its influence and not have any digital doorway to it in your home or on your person. This will mean different things to different people. But for most families it will entail engineering the family from the kids up. That is, you must first decide what environment is best for the kids. Where should you live? What kind of a lifestyle? How will you form positive association with other families? Then your vocation will be built around meeting the needs of your children. You may have to give up a lucrative occupation and band with other families of like mind to create a closed environment in which to raise the kids.\nThere will come a time\u2014soon\u2014when overcoming believers will live in guarded communities. There will be no other option if you are to save your children from this untoward generation.\nIt grieves me to be so negative, but I would be a Pollyanna to do differently. The world is going to hell in a hurry while calling it entertainment and freedom, and the church is only a few steps behind, quoting from a book God could not recognize, and normalizing sins that will keep them out of heaven.\nProtect Your Children Within\nWhile protecting your children from temptations, you must be active in engineering their environment so they have opportunity to exercise their wills to make wise choices in the face of temptations. They need to have good and evil options in their lives, and they need to feel the negative consequences of making wrong choices. But pornography is like dynamite; children cannot be trusted to learn by experience. If they see you turning off a video because it had borderline inappropriate content, they will learn by example the need to exercise discretion. If they become acquainted with people who testify of how pornography, fornication, drugs, alcohol, etc. ruined their lives, they will develop a sense of sowing and reaping without having to personally offend.\nIdeally, the principle is this: as they are growing up, you want to expose them to temptation in a scaled and measured manner, so as to allow them to be tempted, but to always overcome. If there are temporary lapses or failings, you want them to be of such a nature as to not cause long-term harm. One temptation overcome is worth one hundred untried holy moments.\nKeep in mind that your children will eventually face every temptation. It is our duty to prepare them to overcome. The unique thing about our present age, is that children are facing the worst adult temptations when they have not yet built up any defenses. To be made ready for battle, military members are trained with live rounds, but in a manner that does not allow them to be shot.\nThere is a haunting declaration in the last few verses of the Bible. The judgments have all concluded, hell is filled with those who did not repent. The pornographers will take no pleasure in the memory of the thousands of images they acquired. \u201cAnd the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night . . .\u201d (Revelation 14:11). Satan is destroyed in hell, and the saints are all safe in the embrace of our Holy God. Resurrected children safely play in the streets of the New Jerusalem, on the new earth. Those who love righteousness are flittering around in joyous celebration. The angels who were ministering spirits to the saints are finally at rest. And a final announcement is made, \u201cHe that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still\u201d (Revelation 22:11).\nEternity is fixed. Those who are his will always be his. Those who did not obey the gospel will be remembered no more, nor come into mind (Isaiah 65:17).\nNGJ Magazine: June-July 2015\nA Whole Way of Life\nHomeschooled to Bible Translator\n16 Responses to This Is the Last Righteous Generation\nDick and Lorrie Van Sluys\nThank you so much for this fantastic article. We totally agree with you. We\u2019re so grateful to God for your ministry.\nThank you for writing this \u2013 I know it touched many people, but if it just reached my husband and I, it was worth it! My husband showed it to me last night and then told me of the steps he has been undertaking personally to back off of work to focus more on the family and distance himself from other\u2019s immediacy to him via cell phone, and I shared with him my own internal struggles on busy ness of living (easy with animals, gardening, property etc) distracting me from the 5 children we haveand this confirmed things that both of us have been convicted of individually before reading this and talking to each other about things.\nThis article was just what we needed at this time!\nI can not say enough,so I will just stop with a thank you.\nExcellent article, and this is something that Hal and Melanie Young have been writing about on their blog\u2026 Kids getting addicted as young as 7 years old.\nParents need to be aware that porn is available in still images on google through regular cell phones. I am not talking about iphones. I am talking about the cheapest phones there are. Also, Covenant Eyes is a great filter\u2026 It can also be disabled ( and useless) in the hands of a smart kid or adult.\nMy heart is aching for the families mentioned in this article\u2026 I\u2019d love to know if the family with the broken children has found any freedom from this sin\u2026\nEverything written here is true and things will get worse. The Bible says\u2026in 1st Thessalonians 4:18\n17 Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.\nThe Rapture is rarely, if at all, used to comfort the Body of Christ. Fear is an enemy of God and we, who are alive and remain, must look unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our Faith for our comfort and Peace. We when turn our eyes upon Jesus and allow Him to do the work we will enter His rest and the things of this earth will not be so vivid. Our children are our heritage and we must treat them with Grace in the manner that God, through Our Lord Jesus does with us. Grace is something that is so often preached with qualifiers. (if you do this you will get this, etc.) If Grace required qualifiers or had a condition attached to it, it would no longer be Grace (unmerited favor) would it? We parents and grandparents must Rest in the finished work of Christ. When we deal with our children or grandchildren we must unveil Jesus and His matchless Love to them on a daily basis.\nWe are in the world but not of it, and yes, there is no where to run or hide except into the loving arms of our Savior Jesus. Psalm 91 is wonderful to meditate upon, children as well, it is the perfect tool we need to have the protection we need in these days and times.\nWhen we \u201cwash\u201d ourselves daily with the Love of God through His Word we will grow in Grace and walking in the Spirit of God will be effortless. Isaiah 41:10\n10 \u2018Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.\u2019 11 \u201cBehold, all those who are angered at you will be shamed and dishonored; Those who contend with you will be as nothing and will perish.\u2026\nOur Lord Jesus sits at the Right Hand of Our Father and as He is in Heaven, we are in the earth.\nBless you all \u2014 Rest in Him and do not fear, He will never leave us nor forsake us.\n# June 6, 2015 Reply\nThank you for taking the time to write this article, but I must disagree vehemently with your premise. As a believer in Christ I have HOPE for the future. Not a burning passion for gloom, doom and growing evil. Satan was defeated, destroyed and triumphed over at the cross 2,000 years ago. He has no power in this earth any more. The evil we see in this world comes about because we allow it.\n\u201cOf the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David\u2019s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. \u201d Isaiah 9:7\nJesus\u2019 Kingdom is growing and filling this entire earth. At this time in world 1 in every 3 people claim to follow Christ. And I am sure you will disagree that all of them are \u201ctruly saved\u201d, but this statistic continues to grow and expand in God\u2019s favor. Your article alludes to the \u201cend times\u201d, but is based on the fantasy of Darbyism and not on Scripture. There is no coming rapture. No person that is the anti-Christ. Neither are mentioned in scripture. What is mentioned is Jesus himself telling his followers \u201cTHIS generation will NOT pass until ALL these things have happened\u201d. Jesus didn\u2019t lie. The end times happened already in 70AD with the destruction of Jerusalem and the final judgement of the Old Covenant.\nAs long as believers continue to cling to the \u201cblessed hope\u201d of an ever more sinful world and a magical rescue by Jesus then things will continue to get worse. At least in the areas where that terrible theology is allowed to linger. Millions are getting saved around the world every day, but not in America. And the main reason is belief in the lie of Darbyism. It doesn\u2019t require any faith or action for the world to become a worse place every day. This is NOT the great commission or God\u2019s Kingdom principle.\nThanks for sharing about this very pertinent subject! Like you said, it seems far to many christian parents are naive about the VERY real traps awaiting their young\u2019uns. While like you share, the open Internet is very dangerous place for children (and all of us who have red blood and hormones), I personally am more concerned about who my children play and interact with whether or not those individuals have access to electronic technology. I have felt it necesarry to begin giving guidelines and teaching on how to avoid sexual vices (porn, molesters, etc) at a very young age. Little by little as their understanding developes. In some ways I feel like I am taking some innocence from them by revealing to them that there are such things, but now my 8yr and 6yr old sons know what they are to do if they come across porn or an individual who begins making sexual advances on them. It is a war we are in! Thanks again for the warning and teaching!\nJon Jon Wesolowski\n\u201cThey then brought the woman to Jesus, to be stoned, and Jesus said unto them: Give her a disease worse than aids to wipe her out!\u201d\nSuzanne Sutton\nthis is one of the most important articles you have written yet. It pertains to all ages, infant to adult. It came at a perfect time because two other families along with my husband and I just started a small, family intergraded church. It is a huge reminder that though it is a small church we must still be always on our toes, and have hawk eyes to be looking out for the welfare of our children and families. We ordered extra copies to have on our book resource table at church.\nI am always thankful for your ministry and your obedience to what God has called you to do, not growing weary in doing good.\nAbout a year and a half ago my husband confessed to me his addiction to porn. I knew that when he was a boy he had seen his brothers magazines, but I thought he had it under control. My husband has always had problems with depression, anger and suicidal thoughts. He showed no interest in having relations with me. He would have evil dreams and see witches in his dreams. I did not know what was wrong with him. He has always struggled with the assurance of his salvation and about four years ago, he put that struggle to rest. The addiction was better for a while, and then it reared its ugly head again. This time he hated porn and himself so much that he was seriously considering suicide. He prayed and asked God to help him or to take him home. The very next day someone called him from a local organization that helps people who are struggling with sexual sin. He has been a part of this group and it has helped him very much. He is not depressed or angry and has a clear mind. He came clean with me and confessed everything to me. I have read many books on the subject and now I feel like we can help others. I love my husband very much and I am willing to do whatever it takes to make this work. To others out there who are also struggling, please know that there is hope. Don\u2019t give up. Fight this ugly sin like you have never fought before. This sin doesn\u2019t discriminate. It might be the not so lovely person in the back alley or it might be your husband, son, brother, father, doctor, preacher or deacon. Though not as common it can also be a woman in your life. God loves you and he can help you.\nThe answers given in \u201cThe Big Question\u201d. \u00cbngineered Lifestyle\u201d, and \u201cProtecting Your Children Within\u201d, are totally naive. I wish they would work, but personal experience proves they wont. The only answer is constant prayers and Biblical teaching about the reality and overcoming of evil, along with honesty concerning what temptations they will face when they leave the safety of home. Isolating our precious children will never prepare them to make godly choices in this wicked world.\nSuzanne D Reed\nHow right you are. Communication, communication, communication, & Godly knowledge & wisdom.\nWOW! \u201cThis Is the Last Righteous Generation\u201d reads like a depressing and mixed message.\nHe has a point on the huge shift in values and the availability of media, however there never was a \u201cRighteous Generation\u201d\nThe only \u201cRighteous\u201d are depraved, unrighteous people who were brought to life and salvation through faith in God\u2019s provision of the Blood of Jesus.\nEven that faith is solely a gift of God\u2019s vast love and provision for his children.\nMichael wrote about \u201cnormalizing sins that will keep them out of heaven\u201d I would understand the Bible to say ALL sin will have that effect, not just sins society hates. I further understand that Grace and Atonement is here for ALL who accept and believe in salvation through Jesus Christ.\nThat is a simple, joyous message that will spark hope and gratitude.\nWhile the need for warning, educating and monitoring ourselves and our children is great, don\u2019t let this article take away the wide-eyed wonder and gratitude you experience as you realize the the grace and provision of our God!\nAt the same time don\u2019t throw the baby out with bath water. This article is drastic enough to get the attention of many, and may save some from slavery to addiction.\nMichael and his dire writing here may not be all correct however, God works through imperfect people.\nIf he wouldn\u2019t there would be none to carry on his work here.\nRead it. Intense. Super discouraging. :-/ Now I feel depressed. And mad. Thanks a lot. Ha. It is definitely a good read with lots of truth. But I\u2019m annoyed with how incredibly negative and discouraging the writer is; leaving the reader with virtually no hope\nYou are wrongfully blaming technology for people\u2019s sinful heart issues. Even with that, all cell phones are not \u201csmart phones\u201d some are just used to communicate via talk (just like a landline phone) or text (just like an note or email). I like your stuff, it is mostly common sense and always worth sharing and discussing with friends.\nI am a Chinese and a Christian in the Mainland. Your website help me a lot.Could tell me how to buy your books ,audios or other things?\nYou may purchase our materials in Chinese from Beijing Green!",

Brosnan. 1864.\nThe area that is now the state of Nevada was originally part of the Provisional State of Deseret, later to become Utah Territory. Sitting in Salt Lake City or one of the other territorial capitals, 500 miles to the east, the Utah territory Supreme Court has little impact on the residents at the foot of the Sierra Nevada.\nWith the establishment of the Nevada Territory in 1861, three justices were appointed by President Abraham Lincoln to the Territorial Supreme Court. They were Chief Justice George Turner, and Associate Justices Horatio N. Jones and Gordon N. Mott. In 1864, Powhatan B. Locke and John W. North were appointed associate justices to replace Jones and Mott.\nThe justices also served as trial judges, \"riding the circuits,\" until, beleaguered by politics and volatile mining disputes, all resigned in August of 1864.\nSupreme Court Chambers in Capitol\nWhen Nevada achieved statehood on October 31, 1864, James F. Lewis, Henry O. Beatty, and C.M. Brosnan were elected to the first Nevada Supreme Court. Article 6 of the Nevada Constitution provides that justices be elected for six-year terms. The most senior member of the court in commission becomes the Chief Justice and should two justices be eligible, the Chief is chosen by lot. Originally the Court consisted of only three justices, but as the state has grown, so has the number of cases the Supreme Court must consider. In 1967, the legislature exercised the power granted to it by the constitution and increased the number of justices to five. The number of justices was again increased to seven by the legislature in 1997.\nThomas Hawley (1873-79)\nThe Territorial Supreme Court issued only eighty-two opinions between 1861 and 1864. In contrast, the Supreme Court of Nevada disposed of 2,423 cases by opinion or order in 2017. The opinions of the Territorial Supreme Court have never been published, but the most important decisions of the Nevada Supreme Court are published in an annual volume entitled Nevada Reports, which can be found in most libraries.\nA detailed look at all of the judges who have served Nevada's courts can be found at the Nevada Judicial History Database.",

They\u2019re not driving Lamborghinis and Ferraris. Their house isn\u2019t on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. Nor are their offices in tall skyscrapers in downtown metropolitan cities. They\u2019re among us every day in our own environment.\nMy view of a millionaire wasn\u2019t exactly in the aforementioned, but he or she wasn\u2019t my next door neighbor either. Becoming a millionaire is always the goal. Why don\u2019t we want to be a billionaire? For the very fact that a million dollars is still the coveted benchmark of success. Our fantasization with becoming a millionaire is so realistic, we distance ourselves with the norm of becoming someone of that stature.\nI\u2019ve learned money is only a tool to get us further ahead in life. In becoming a millionaire, every dollar is to be used for the accumulation for more dollars. The clich\u00e9 of \u201cSpend your money wisely\u201d isn\u2019t a hoax. Every purchase should be made to increase your value as individual, which in return increases the value you\u2019re worth to others.\nFor example, if I was looking to become the world\u2019s greatest chef but my reality is working at the local Burger King, I need to find a way to use my current experience to jump to the next level. On my personal time, I\u2019d be searching for magazines and books to read. My mobile phone would have different podcasts from iconic masters of the kitchen. Every paycheck I would make an investment of adding another tool or service to my skill set, whether it be a new knife, recipe book, or cooking class. The money you earned increases your value as a chef, so in a year\u2019s time you\u2019ve accumulated the experience and skills to apply at a local restaurant and wowing them with your intellect and experience. You\u2019ve wowed them so much, they hire you on the spot.\nThe value of money is to be used as a tool. Money isn\u2019t to be sought as the last endangered material on earth. It isn\u2019t to be treated like Uncle Scrooge either. We all have our personal values on how we view money\u2019s value to us and our situation. I view it as a tool to enhance my craft.",

        "raw_content": "By Lukas Lehner and Doroth\u00e9e Rouzet, OECD Economics Department\nGlobal growth has gained momentum in 2017 and the economic recovery is moving forward, as shown in our latest Economic Outlook. Labour productivity is improving from its decade-long sluggishness. Yet, expected productivity gains still lag far behind pre-crisis norms, and will not be sufficient to set the stage for long-term improvements in living standards (Figure 1, Panel A). Multiple structural obstacles \u2013 including a lack of competition and business dynamism and high shares of \u201czombie\u201d capital \u2013 slow down the investment, innovation, and technology diffusion that are crucial for productivity growth.\nSlow labour productivity growth has been a driver of slow increases in real wages, alongside remaining hidden labour market slack, a rise in non-standard forms of employment and weakened labour market institutions (Figure 1, Panel B). This means that in most advanced economies, incomes are unlikely to rise in line with the pace that households experienced in pre-crisis decades, and that they have come to expect for the future.\nWithout stronger and more widely shared productivity, wage and income growth, promises to younger generations will not be kept. In the past, each generation used to enjoy rising incomes over their working lives and higher living standards than their elders. These trends have slowed or even reversed in the last decade for generations currently in their prime working age (Figure 2). Real incomes have decreased for people born in the 1970s, feeding into public dissatisfaction. Ensuring that this lost decade does not become a \u201clost generation\u201d is a call for deeper policy changes.\nTo raise prospects for better living standards for their populations, policymakers need to take action to catalyse more robust investment and productivity gains towards higher wages and incomes for all. Reform packages should focus on promoting competition and trade, improving active labour market policies and social protection, and developing human capital to seize the opportunities of the future. The short-term momentum provides a window for bold action that could and should promote stronger and more inclusive growth.\nOECD (2017), Preventing Ageing Unequally, OECD Publishing, Paris.\nPosted in Economic outlook, Productivity, UncategorizedTagged Labour markets",

        "title": "PERC | O ECOTEXTILES",
        "raw_content": "PERC \u2013 PCE \u2013 perchloroethylene\nThe solvents used in dry cleaning establishments have long been known to effect human health.\nPerchloroethylene \u2013 also called perchlorethylene, tetrachloroethylene, tetrachlorethylene, PCE, or PERC \u2013 is used for dry cleaning clothing and fabrics. Perc removes stains and dirt without causing clothing to shrink or otherwise get damaged. You know that sweetish smell from a newly dry cleaned sweater? That\u2019s it. PERC may also be an ingredient in spot removers, rug and upholstery cleaners, water repellents, aerosols, adhesives, sealants, wood cleaners and polishes, lubricants, typewriter correction fluid and shoe polish.\nFrom \"Greening the Apple\" blogspot.\nThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency lists PERC as a \u201clikely carcinogen\u201d and by the World Health Organization as a \u201cprobable carcinogen\u201d because long-term exposure to perchloroethylene can cause leukemia and cancer of the skin, colon, lung, larynx, bladder, and urogenital tract; recent studies have been published linking PERC to breast cancer.[1] The US Environmental Protection Agency says that it causes liver and kidney damage in humans; workers exposed to large amounts of PERC experience memory loss and confusion; if you are pregnant, long-term exposure to perchloroethylene may damage a developing fetus. Just not something you want to live with.\nIt has been found that homes with freshly dry cleaned clothing have perchloroethylene levels that are 2 to 30 times higher than average background levels.[2] The U.S. Department of Labor, in its Occupational Safety & Health guidelines (OSHA), attempts to protect workers by limiting their exposure to PERC to 100 parts per million.[3]\nLast year a high school student, Alexa Dantzler, looking for a memorable science-fair project, decided to look at what chemicals might remain in dry cleaned clothing. But since she didn\u2019t have access to the proper equipment, she emailed several chemistry professors with her idea and hit gold with Paul Roepe, then-chairman of Georgetown University\u2019s chemistry department. He took on the project \u201cfor fun.\nAccording to The Washington Post (read article here):\n\u2026 what started out as something to \u201csponsor the kid\u2019s curiosity\u201d prompted a chain reaction in the university lab: an email exchange, an invitation to collaborate and, last week, a paper published online in a peer-reviewed environmental journal. The paper gives new details about the amount of a toxic chemical that lingers in wool, cotton and polyester clothing after it is dry-cleaned.\n\u201cAt the end of the day, nobody, I mean nobody, has previously done this simple thing \u2014 gone out there to several different dry cleaners and tested different types of cloth\u201d to see how much of the chemical persists, said Roepe, who supervised the study.\nDantzler, with help from her mother, sewed squares of wool, cotton, polyester and silk into the lining of seven identical men\u2019s jackets, then took them to be cleaned from one to six times at seven Northern Virginia dry cleaners. The cleaners, who were not identified, had no prior knowledge of the experiment.\nShe kept the patches in plastic bags in the freezer \u2014 to preserve the samples \u2014 and went to Georgetown once or twice a week to do the chemical analysis with two graduate students, Katy Sherlach and Alexander Gorka. The research team found that perchloroethylene, a dry cleaning solvent that has been linked to cancer and neurological damage, stayed in the fabrics and that levels increased with repeat cleanings, particularly in wool. The study was published online in Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry.[4]\nWhat they found is consistent with most regulations concerning fabrics: that although there are voluntary guidelines for atmospheric concentrations of PERC in the workplace, there are no standards which exist for levels in dry-cleaned fabric.\nAccording to the team, it is difficult to say how much risk consumers accept from wearing dry cleaned clothing for a year \u2013 or from breathing air from a closet full of dry cleaned clothes. It\u2019s most likely that the risk depends on how much and how long \u2013 sort of like UV exposure and cigarette smoke.\nHow much PERC did they find in the clothing? The study found that cotton and polyester absorption of PERC leveled off after two or three cleaning cycles, but that levels in wool increased with each of six cycles. Researchers calculated what they thought would happen if four people in a car each had on a freshly dry cleaned item of wool clothing. After one hour of driving, with windows closed, the PERC circulating in the air would produce a level as high as 126 parts per million \u2013 which both exceeds the OSHA guidelines for workplace safety, as well as the limits widely recommended by industry and government scientists.\nIt\u2019s possible that the dry cleaning delivery man might be exposed to more PERCE than the workers at the plant, who are covered by OSHA regulations.\nAnd yes, Alexa Dantzler won first place in chemistry at last year\u2019s Arlington county science fair. Way to go Alexa!\nHow to minimize exposure to perchloroethylene:\nOne of the easiest ways to avoid PERC is by choosing alternatives to dry-cleaning your clothes. Be aware, however, that some non-PERC dry-cleaners use alternatives, sometimes called \u201chydrocarbon\u201d treatments, that are also toxic. Wetcleaning, a professional alternative to perchloroethylene that uses biodegradable soaps instead, is also available. Look for a cleaner near you at the Professional Wetcleaning Network\u2019s website . There is ongoing research into different ways to dry clean without perc, so check local professionals to see what they might be looking into to move away from perc.\nAnother good option, but less available, is CO2 cleaning, which uses liquid carbon dioxide to clean clothes. Check the Pollution Control Center site at Occidental College for wet-cleaners and CO2 cleaners near you. Another resource is the National Clearing House for Professional Wet Cleaners.\nIf dry-cleaned goods have a strong chemical odor when you pick them up, ask your cleaner to dry them further. If it keeps happening, switch to a different cleaner.\nAir out dry-cleaned garments by taking them out of the plastic sheath and hanging them briefly outdoors before bringing them indoors.\nSome clothing labeled \u201cDry Clean Only\u201d may be safely handwashed, according to Consumer Reports. \u201cDry Clean Only\u201d labels are overused because manufacturers prefer to err on the side of caution.\nHandwash plain-weave rayon and solid-colored silks separately in cool water, squeeze rather than wring, and lay flat to dry.\nWash sweaters in cold water by hand or machine; cashmere and cotton do best in the washing machine inside out; dry sweaters flat, except cotton sweaters, which can be machine-dried.\nAngora sweaters and structured or lined garments should be sent to a professional cleaner, however.\n[1] Aschengrau, A., et al., \u201cPerchloroethylene-Contaminated Drinking Water and the Risk of Breast Cancer: Additional Results from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA\u201d, Environmental Health Perspectives, February 2003\n[2] Report on Carcinogens, Twelfth Edition (2011); U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service, National Toxicology Program. http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/ntp/roc/twelfth/profiles/Tetrachloroethylene.pdf\n[3] http://www.osha.gov/dsg/guidance/perc.html\n[4] Sherlach, K; Gorka, A., Dantzler, A and Roepe, P., \u201cQuantification of perchloroethylene residues in dry cleaned fabrics\u201d, Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry; 20 September 2011\nTags: Consumer Reports, dantzler, Dry cleaning, Georgetown University, National Clearning House for Professional Wet Cleaners, Occidental College, Occupational Safety & Health, PCE, PERC, Perchloroethylene, Pollution Control Center at Occidental College, Professional Wetcleaning Network, Tetrachloroethylene, United States Environmental Protection Agency, US Environmental Protection Agency, Washington Post, World Health Organization\nCategories : Chemicals, PERC, Uncategorized",

        "title": "Mysteries of Okinawan Habu Venom Decoded | Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University OIST",
        "raw_content": "It is more likely that you have seen a habu snake in a bottle of local rice liquor Awamori, in Okinawa, than that you\u2019ve spotted one slithering by the wayside. Even so, habus are very common in the Ryukyu islands of which Okinawa is a part. Okinawa is home to three species of habu; the Okinawan habu (Protobothrops flavoviridis), endemic to the Ryukyu islands, is highly venomous.\nThe Okinawan habu is endemic to the Ryukyu islands of Japan. It is the longest and the most venomous of the three habu species found in the region.\nProf Hiroki Shibata\nA collaborative team of scientists from many research institutes and universities across Japan have now mapped the entire genome of the Okinawan habu, including the genes involved in venom production. Professor Nori Satoh and his team of researchers from Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST), were a part of the study, which was published in Scientific Reports. Snake venom has attracted the attention of many scientists worldwide as it has tremendous potential in the development of new drugs. The findings from this study might help advance efforts to identify novel therapies for treating ailments such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases and many others.\nFor the study, the researchers caught Okinawan habus from the wild using a long metal pole with a hook at one end and collected venom, blood and tissues samples from them. Then, using the cutting-edge DNA sequencing facilities at OIST, the researchers identified nearly 60 genes from 18 different gene families that help this critter make its venom.\nThe Okinawan Habu can produce a large amount of venom. The venom is hemotoxic and destroys the blood cells and tissues of the prey.\nNearly 50 people \u2013 most often farm workers tending crops in fields and orchards \u2013 are reportedly bitten by habus every year in Okinawa alone. The venom of the Okinawan habu is hemotoxic, destroying the blood cells and tissues. Though antidotes are now available, bites can still cause severe pain and permanent tissue damage in humans. The scientists hope the results of this study will help develop more effective antidotes and treatments for habu bites. \u201cThe findings of this study are very important, especially to the people of Okinawa and the surrounding islands where the Okinawan habu is found,\u201d says Prof. Satoh.\nSnake venom is a cocktail of complex proteins. \u201cThough the Okinawan habu is not as venomous as cobras or taipans, it can produce a large amount of venom - up to 1 ml,\u201d says Prof. Hiroki Shibata, a collaborator from the University of Kyushu. Its long, sharp fangs help discharge the venom deep inside the prey, he explains.\nThe genome of any organism is a treasure trove of information. Mapping venom genes of the habu not only allows scientists to explore its potential in drug development, but also gives scientists the tools to study how venom toxins have evolved, their composition and the mechanism by which they do their damage.\nThe researchers explored this venom\u2019s evolutionary history by constructing a phylogenetic tree of venom genes including those that they identified in the habu. A phylogenetic tree helps illustrate the relationship between two or more organism groups by identifying the similarities and dissimilarities between them. The distance between the groups in a tree translates to different degrees of relatedness between them. The groups that are closely placed are more related to one another than those placed further away.\nVenomous snakes across the world belong to one of the two families; Viperidae or Elapidae. The members of the family Viperidae, including the habu, have venom that is toxic to blood (hemotoxic); whereas the members of the family Elapidae, such as cobras, have venom that is toxic to the nervous system (neurotoxic). In this study, the researchers found many common components among venom genes of both families, thereby tracing back the origin of the present-day venom toxins to a common ancestor that existed millions of years ago. \u201cThe venom gene copies originated a long time ago, possibly at the early stage of vertebrate evolution,\u201d explains Prof. Shibata. The scientists believe that combined information gathered from venom research so far, will help unravel the enigma behind the process of venom production in snakes.\nMembers of the OIST Marine Genomics Unit and the DNA Sequencing Section were a part of this collaborative study.

        "raw_content": "Everyone is my Dream Reader\nYou can do anything you set your mind to!!! I know some of you may think that this is a bit far fetched, but just think about it for a second\u20261\u2026 When we really do focus on what we really want; and do everything to reach that want, we actually get it. Now this is actually a powerful technique and it\u2019s called the power of attraction. I know some of you may not believe in this concept, but just look at where u are at and think about how u got there\u2026\u2026 We create our own future thru our thoughts. As long as we stay happy and positive in all we do; there will never be an unhappy me or you. Let me show you three things you can start doing to begin changing wealth, health, and love.\nWe all want to be stress and worry free from bills. It\u2019s the first thing that usually holds or ultimately suppresses us all. Have you ever heard the saying, \u201cmoney is the root of all evil?\u201d Well I like to take this and put a spin on it. Think about everything that happens to us? We overspend on our budget to keep someone including ourselves happy and lose sight of our bills that begin to pile up. Now your in a bind thinking you will never get out of it. Well instead of being negative about your situation; turn around and tell yourself that you can get out of it, you deserve to get out of it, and you will get out of it! You will soon see and feel more positive about the situation to start focusing on money management. This is the law of attraction at work in your own life. As long as you are negative about the situation; it will only get worse. Now if you begin opening your mind to the possibilities and tell yourself that you are a money magnet (so to speak); money will begin coming your way!\nI don\u2019t remember the last time I went to a doctor for an illness\u2026 then again I never think about myself getting ill. As soon as the thought comes to mind I immediately tell myself that I will get over it. Thoughts are the key to you getting better because most of the time we tell ourselves or hear someone say that we will get sick if we go out without a coat in cold weather and end up over thinking it. As long as you stay positive and happy without a doubt; you will not have to worry about your health.\nThe main idea to focus on here is love is not found! We can\u2019t go around looking for love because it\u2019s a feeling. If we can\u2019t love ourselves; then how will we ever love someone else, or expect someone to love us? If you learn to love you for you and stop trying to change; people will in turn love you just for simply being you and thus the law of attraction shows us that love will appear in our lives.\n\u2190 Fly with me\nEndurance \u2192",

It also aims to provide a way for Korean companies to overcome regional and linguistic limitations when developing IoT products.\nThe OCF Korea forum consists of three subcommittees: The Technical Subcommittee, Certification Support Subcommittee, and Business Subcommittee. OCFK\u2019s most recent work has been focused on several areas, including:\nDevelopment of use cases and a business model\nDeveloper training and education program\nOCF testing and certification technical support\nDeveloper contests\nProviding translated OCF Specification to the local industry\nPromotion of OCF products and services by affiliates\nIt has been a busy year for OCFK so far, kicking off with the general members meeting in March, and subcommittee meeting in April.\nThe OCFK also held a developer training in May, with the goal of helping members understand the OCF Specification and security features, as well as developing a programming guide for product development.\nIn June, OCFK participated in the KRnet Conference in Seoul. The event attracted around 50 participants, and was a great opportunity to spread the word about OCF to Korean IoT experts.\nIn September, OCFK held a developer contest to provide a development environment for local IoT engineers. The event included a technical seminar, IoTivity training, an exhibition, and developer competition. The developer contest featured 20 teams of four people each, and teams developed applications for different devices, including temperature sensors, smart door locks, air conditioners, security cameras, rice cookers, and more. The five winning teams received cash prizes.\nThe OCFK Developer Competition in September attracted 80 participants to compete for cash prizes.\nOCF Korea Day was held on Sept. 10-11 in Seoul. It included an OCF members seminar, OCF Korea contest, and a tech workshop.\nFinally, OCFK participated in the Korea Land & Housing Smart Home Market and Technology Conference on Sept. 18 in Seoul. The conference provided an opportunity to introduce OCF major telecom and appliance companies and discuss construction, appliance, and telecom issues.\nAlso in September, OCF signed an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) with HDC (Hyundai Development Company) to apply OCF on HDC apartment homes. This agreement was the first of its kind in the world and represents a major step toward standardizing OCF-based IoT technology in the construction industry.\nWith the great progress in 2018, we\u2019re excited to see what 2019 will bring as OCF continues to engage IoT developers in Korea.

Government, Agricultural, Institutional\n0.30/kWh\nUp to 4 kW\nBuyback rate is available for 10 years; 1/month metering charge\nRiver Falls Municipal Utilities\nhttp://www.rfcity.org/index.aspx?nid=698\nRiver Falls Municipal Utilities (RFMU), a member of WPPI Energy, offers a special energy purchase rate to its customers that generate electricity using solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. The special rate, $0.30/kilowatt-hour (kWh), is available to all the RFMU customers on a first-come, first-served basis for systems up to 4 kilowatts (kW). The RFMU program is part of a larger solar buyback program being offered by WPPI to its member utilities, which has a total program limit of 300 kW.\nRFMU was originally allocated 10 kW for their tariff, but because of the program's popularity, that limit has been increased several times, and is now limited to 30 kW. As of May 2013, the program has 14.4 kW of solar installed with an additional 12 kW in queue for installation.\nIt is important to note that this is not a net metering arrangement. Instead, the customer continues to pay their normal retail rate for electricity that they purchase from the utility. All of the energy generated by the customer's PV system is metered separately and exported directly to the grid. The $0.30/kWh incentive is applied to all of the energy the system produces for a period of 10 years, under a written contract with the RFMU. The customer receives payment as a monthly credit on their electricity bill. RFMU then resells the energy to WPPI Energy.\nThis arrangement requires the installation of a second generation meter at the customer's expense. Participants are also charged an additional metering fee of $1.00/month. Systems and components are required to comply with all applicable national, state, and local electric codes, rules, and regulations, including the State of Wisconsin's Standard Interconnection Rules. WPPI Energy takes title to all renewable energy credits (RECs) or other environmental attributes produced by systems enrolled in the program.\nProspective participants can visit the program website or use the contact information below for more information on this program.\nCustomer Service - RFMU\nRFMU@wppienergy.org\nhttp://www.rfmu.org/\nSolar Renewable Generation Distributed Generation Tariff\nRetrieved from \"https://openei.org/w/index.php?title=River_Falls_Municipal_Utilities_-_Distributed_Solar_Tariff_(Wisconsin)&oldid=810368\"",

        "title": "\u201cWhy aren\u2019t people speaking out about children being exploited? \u201c \u2013 Out of the Shadows",
        "raw_content": "\u201cWhy aren\u2019t people speaking out about children being exploited? \u201c\nI was interviewed by a journalist today. I wont name them as they are about to do their best to uncover why Gangs and Child sexual exploitation is not receiving the press coverage it deserves across Kent.\nI have been asked to do many interviews over the past few months and have tried to be selective with who I talk to. I don\u2019t want people to talk to me just because they want to hear about my story. My story as a child and young person involved in gangs and exploitation is in the past, and whilst I agree that people may find my story interesting and lessons can be learnt from it, my story can also take the importance away from what my message is. That this is still happening. That I was exploited and abused and that this is still happening right under our noses.\nThe journalist asked me a few questions. They said, \u201cHow did I know there were gangs and exploitation in Kent?\u201d. I said I know because I work directly with the children and young people that are affected by it. I know because I see the mental health implications that are associated with it. I know because it\u2019s obvious what is happening.\nI asked the journalist this\u2026If we have no big issue with Gangs and exploitation\u2026If this is not something that is happening\u2026then why do we have a task force? Why are things such as Operation Willow in place?\nSee the thing is, I don\u2019t think that myself or anyone else should have to prove that there is a gang or CSE issue in Kent, or the whole of the UK to be fair. I think that the police, social services, the MPs \u2026who ever\u2026they should have to prove that there is NOT an issue, if that is what is being said.\nIt\u2019s a bit like the victim blaming epidemic we live. \u201cWhy didn\u2019t you speak out?\u201d. \u201cWhy didn\u2019t you walk away?\u201d \u201cWhy did you put yourself in risky situations?\u201d. These are the kind of questions that Victims of crimes such as exploitation are asked. The owner ship put back on the victim, and in some cases that victim could be a child.\nSo how about this, instead of the frontline workers, the sexual health workers, the head teachers, the support workers\u2026instead of us having to argue and prove that there is a gang and CSE issue in Kent that is not being addressed\u2026how about the powers that be prove that we are all liars and prove that there is NO problem.\nProduce some facts.\nHow many knife related crimes have there been in Thanet?\nHow many Gangs are in operation in Kent?\nHow many girls that are victim of or are at risk of CSE are treated by sexual health practitioners in East Kent?\nWhy did we have a Kent and Medway gangs\u2019 strategy if we have no gang issue?\nWhy do we have Operation Willow if we have no CSE issue?\nI said all this to the journalist and they said that if this is true then \u2026\nI replied with the only answer I truly have. I don\u2019t know. I guess people are scared. Scared of being held accountable. Scared of losing their jobs. Scared of admitting there is an issue but not being able to come up with a solution. Scared what people will think.\nBut you know what. That is nothing compared to the fear that our children and young people face day and night knowing that all these things are happening and not very much is being done. Being forced to carry a weapon\u2026that\u2019s scary. Being forced to have sex with people you don\u2019t want to\u2026that\u2019s scary.\nKnowing that adults know what\u2019s going on but are not doing all they can to help you. Imagine that. Imagine knowing that the gangs and exploiters could do what they want to some degree and nothing can stop it. That must be scary.\nWhy are the public not saying more? I don\u2019t know. I guess I can\u2019t answer that. So over to you peeps\u2026tell me\nDo YOU think there is a gangs and exploitation in your area? If so\u2026be brave. Say it. Comment on here\u2026on the post\u2026whatever.\nSay \u201cYes\u2026..I live in Kent and there is a gangs issue and not enough is being done\u201d say \u201cYes\u2026..there are children being exploited in Essex and not enough is being done.\nI have said it before and I will say it again.\nMy name is Kendra Houseman and I live in Kent. We have a Gangs and Child sexual exposition issue and not enough is being done about it. What I do know is that I am trying to do something.\nMake sure you join our Facebook page, so you can join in the discussion on this.

        "title": "Constitutional Scholarship or Political Activism? The Role of the Academy Following the Coalition-Prorogation Crisis of 2008 | James Bowden's Blog",
        "raw_content": "\u2190 The Origins of Centralizing Executive Authority in the Prime Minister\nThe Speakership of the New Zealand House of Representatives \u2192\nThe line between academia and scholarship on the one hand and punditry and activism on the other has become increasingly blurred in Canada, especially in the wake of the coalition-prorogation crisis of December 2008. Recent works like Democratizing the Constitution: Reforming Responsible Government are emblematic of the attempt, as well as the failure, to reconcile the mutually exclusive concepts of political activism and constitutional scholarship.\nA spin off of that book, Lori Turnbull\u2019s column \u201cA three-peat for prorogation? Bring on reform\u201d in the Globe and Mailalso effectively underscores this problem: sometimes the correct academic argument becomes an obstacle to effective activism. The article makes at least two factual errors and, more broadly, purports a serious conceptual error of interpretation about the nature of crown prerogative and the role of unwritten convention in Canada\u2019s constitution.\nProblems with Turnbull\u2019s Column and Democratizing the Constitution: Reforming Responsible Government\nOn Prorogation and Crown Prerogative\nTurnbull argued:\nTechnically, the power to prorogue belongs to the Crown and can be exercised \u201cofficially\u201d by the governor-general alone, but this would never happen without the advice of the prime minister. No Canadian governor-general has refused a prime minister\u2019s advice to prorogue. So history would suggest that the prime minister, not the governor-general, calls the tune, regardless of where the power lies constitutionally. This is not the case in other Westminster jurisdictions.\nThe Dignified and the Efficient Parts of the Crown\nThe Supreme Court of Canada recognized in the Patriation Reference that \u201cconstitutional conventions plus constitutional law equal the total constitution of the country.\u201d Therefore, constitutional conventions and the written constitution form equally important parts of Canada\u2019s constitution. The Supreme Court cannot use one part of the constitution (like the Charter) the strike down another part of the constitution (like crown prerogative or parliamentary privilege). The Constitution Act, 1982 mentions that the governor general dissolves parliament, but the Letters Patent, 1947 provide the only complete written instruction that the governor general summons, prorogues, and dissolves parliament. By convention, the governor general cannot exercise any of those powers independently and does so only on the advice of the prime minister. According to the Manual of Official Procedure of the Government of Canada, the governor general\u2019s reserve powers may allow him to reject the prime minister\u2019s advice to dissolve, but not to prorogue or summon, parliament. The rejection of the prime minister\u2019s advice does not equal independent gubernatorial action. Strictly speaking, \u201cthe Crown\u201d consists of two parts, what Bagehot called the \u201cdignified\u201d and \u201cefficient\u201d functions, respectively: the Sovereign and governor general, and the prime minister and cabinet. Thus, \u201ccrown prerogative\u201d follows this division; the sovereign or governor general possesses \u201creserve powers\u201d (what I call \u201croyal prerogative\u201d), and prime minister and cabinet control the Governor-in-Council\u2019s crown prerogative.\nGiven the role of convention in Canada\u2019s constitution, I disagree with Turnbull\u2019s assertion that the governor general can \u201cofficially\u201d summon, prorogue, or dissolve parliament independently. Turnbull states correctly that no governor general has ever rejected the prime minister\u2019s advice to prorogue. Based on my analysis above, I find the next statement problematic: \u201cSo history would suggest that the prime minister, not the governor-general, calls the tune, regardless of where the power lies constitutionally.\u201d (Isn\u2019t the idiom \u2018to call the shots\u2019?) The \u201cpower lies constitutionally\u201d in both the governor general and the prime minister, who in effect jointly exercise this crown prerogative.\nThis over-simplification of crown prerogative and the role of convention in Canada\u2019s constitution probably resulted from the constraints of the newspaper column. In any case, I would have attempted to re-phrase the nature of crown prerogative more effectively, perhaps as:\nThe crown\u2019s prerogative powers to summon, prorogue, and dissolve in fact rest with both the governor general and the prime minister because the former only acts on the advice of the latter. Any attempt to alter formally and substantively this relationship between the governor general and the prime minister \u2013 the crown as a whole \u2013 would require an amendment to Section 41 (a) of the Constitution Act, 1982 (\u201cthe Office of the Queen, Governor General, and Lieutenant Governor of a province\u201d), which requires the unanimity of the Parliament of Canada and all 10 provincial legislatures.\nBut more fundamentally, I disagree that the crown prerogative on prorogation should be eliminated and the power vested in the legislature, and ironically, this system would detract from the House\u2019s\u201dbasic functions, including holding the government to account.\u201d The government introduces most legislation, for which the opposition holds the government to account. The Prime Minister normally advises prorogation upon the completion of his government\u2019s legislative program; the House\u2019s basic function of holding the crown to account for its expenditures does not include the determination of the end of the government\u2019s legislative agenda.\nJarvis and Turnbull acknowledge in the conclusion of Democratizing the Constitution that their plan to eliminate the crown prerogative of prorogation and vest it in parliament via a two-thirds supermajority would require a formal constitutional amendment, but I think that they have greatly underestimated the difficulty in achieving unanimity under Section 41 (a) of the Constitution Act, 1982.\nNevertheless, in her individual column, Turnbull argues that the Standing Orders of the House of Commons could formally constrain or eliminate the crown prerogative on prorogation.\nA political prorogation is a blatant abuse of a prime minister\u2019s access to the Crown\u2019s prerogative powers. As citizens of an elected democracy, we should not tolerate it and, with a few basic changes to the House rules, we wouldn\u2019t have to [emphasis added].\nI guess that Turnbull forgot about the arguments and political activism contained in her own book? Maybe Turnbull should have talked to Jarvis before submitting this column, and then he could have reminded her about the book that they wrote together, and how it was more accurate about this particular subject\u2026\n\u201cOther Westminster Jurisdictions\u201d. Which Ones? Please Elaborate!\nTurnbull argues : \u201cSo history would suggest that the prime minister, not the governor-general, calls the tune [sic (\u2018Calls the shots\u2019, perhaps?)] , regardless of where the power lies constitutionally. This is not the case in other Westminster jurisdictions.\u201d In which other Westminster jurisdictions has the crown prerogative on prorogation been eliminated? As I explained in the entry on Alex Salmond\u2019s vision of an independent Scotland, the Scottish Parliament has eliminated the crown prerogatives on the summoning and dissolution of parliament by codifying the fixed elections to and automated summoning of parliament in the Scotland Act, 1998. However, the Scotland Act makes no mention whatsoever of the words \u201cprorogue\u201d and \u201cprorogation\u201d, which means that rather than eliminating the crown prerogative on prorogation, it eliminated prorogation itself. I explained in my entries on fixed-elections in the Commonwealth that the Westminster Parliament has devised the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act, which eliminates the crown prerogative on dissolution. The Act also says in Section 6, Paragraph 1 that \u201cThis Act does not affect Her Majesty\u2019s power to prorogue Parliament.\u201d The Fixed-Term Parliaments Act, 2011 does not affect prorogation at all. The New Zealand Cabinet Manual and the website of the Governor-General of New Zealand indicate that the Governor-General summons, prorogues, and dissolves parliament on the advice of the Prime Minister. The website of the Governor-General of Australia shows that the Australian viceroy carries precisely the same functions. None of the Canadian provinces have eliminated crown prerogative on prorogation either. I\u2019m quite certain that all six Australian states also preserved the traditional standard.\nSo what other Westminster jurisdiction operates on the Jarvis-Turnbull principle that only a supermajority of two-thirds of the MPs in the lower house can sanction prorogation? I\u2019ve only looked to the core Commonwealth, but I really wanted to know! Maybe Tuvalu or Jamaica do? And what does Turnbull mean by \u201cWestminster jurisdiction\u201d? I suspect that the phrase would only include legislatures within the 16 Commonwealth Realms that recognize Queen Elizabeth II as their Sovereign, but the vague term could also conceivably include any parliament within one of the 54 member-states (this figure includes the 16 Realms) of the Commonwealth of Nations, since they were all once part of the British Empire. Surely, the editors of the Globe and Mail could have accommodated a few extra words that elaborate on this argument.\nPrime Minister Harper Has Thus Far Advised THREE Prorogations, Not Two.\nCompared to the aforementioned significant conceptual errors, this statement seems minor. The Parliament of Canada provides an excellent repository of information on all of Canada\u2019s 41 Parliaments, called ParlInfo. It compiles all statistics on the life of all 41 Parliaments, including every summoning, adjournment, prorogation, intersession, and dissolution in the history of the institution.\nTurnbull argued: \u201cIf the rumours are true, this would be the third time that Mr. Harper has prorogued Parliament. The first occurred in December, 2008 [\u2026].\u201d This is incorrect. According to ParlInfo\u2019s statistics on the 39th Parliament, Prime Minister Harper advised that his first prorogation occur on 14 September 2007, and the 2nd session of the 39th Parliament then convened on 16 October 2007 with a Speech from the Throne. Harper subsequently advised prorogation twice in the 40th Parliament. The first prorogation of the 41st Parliament will be the Harper government\u2019s FOURTH, not third. Perhaps Turnbull meant, \u201cthe first prorogation of the 41st Parliament will be the Harper government\u2019s third controversial prorogation.\u201d\nMore fundamentally, now that the PM Harper leads a majority government, why would he advise a prorogation before the completion of his legislative agenda? Turnbull\u2019s column never adequately responds to this point. The Prime Minister will not advise a prorogation until his current legislation program has passed both Houses of Parliament and received Royal Assent. Turnbull herself acknowledges that \u201c[Routine prorogations] occur when the government has fully implemented its current agenda.\u201d Perhaps Turnbull fears that the intersession of the prorogation would become too long. But in a majority parliament, the Harper government would never employ what she terms a \u201cpolitical prorogation\u201d in order \u201cto muzzle opposition criticism, to escape parliamentary scrutiny.\u201d Her argument breaks down at this stage, because the Prime Minister clearly would not request a prorogation in a majority parliament until his legislation program has received Royal Assent, and because the opposition cannot truly threaten the viability of the government; only the Conservative backbenchers can in this majority parliament.\nTurnbull continues:\nThe 2012 prorogation would be substantively different. First, there is no obvious political land mine to avoid. Second, the Conservatives have demonstrated how majority status confers an immunity of sorts from even the most scathing criticism from the opposition benches. These factors make a potential upcoming prorogation less necessary from a political standpoint, but the fact remains: We live in a country where a prime minister can shut down the House, the pre-eminent institution of our parliamentary democracy, on a whim, for no particular reason.\nEssentially, the last quoted paragraph says, \u201cI don\u2019t like Stephen Harper, and therefore the rules by which prorogation is carried out should be changed.\u201d This is what I mean by political activism as opposed to constitutional scholarship. The political activists use emotive words and phrases with negative connotations like \u201cabuse\u201d, \u201cacting in bad faith\u201d, \u201cshutting down parliament\u201d, etc. in order to justify their arguments and, more importantly, in order to portray anyone who disagrees with them as enablers of this \u201cabuse.\u201d This method therefore assigns a negative moral judgement to all those who disagree with the political activist\u2019s arguments and attempts to portray those opposed as deceptive at best and evil at worst. This political activist\u2019s tactic subtlety attempts to limit the parameters of acceptable discourse from the outset; in contrast, a true constitutional scholar would \u201cfollow the logos\u201d, acknowledge the fair points of opposing arguments, and draw conclusions after examining all available evidence. The political activist defines his position and dismisses competing views as not only factually incorrect or conceptually flawed, but as morally wrong. In so doing, the political activist attempts to frame the debate and market his ideas in the media and to anyone who will listen.\nUltimately, academics must choose: will they engage in true constitutional scholarship, or will they descend into punditry and political activism? In addition, once they have chosen, will they masquerade thinly veiled political activism as having produced true constitutional scholarship? As I described in the \u201cabout\u201d section of this blog, the Coalition-Prorogation Crisis of 2008 galvanized me and motivated me to learn more about Canada\u2019s constitution. At the time, the Conservatives made incorrect and inaccurate statements about the legality of coalition governments in the Westminster system; and the Liberal-New Democratic coalition that the Bloc supported made incorrect and inaccurate statements about prorogation, crown prerogative, and what constitutes a loss of confidence in the government. I reserve criticism for both sides. In \u201cNo Discretion\u201d, Nick MacDonald and I offered a novel interpretation of prorogation and the nature of the reserve powers of the crown, which I hope has enriched the overall scholarship and academic literature. However, in the conclusion, we acknowledged the normative nature of some of the arguments and that they contradict how some of the events unfolded in reality\u2013 because that piece intended to offer novel constitutional scholarship that challenged the prevailing orthodoxy through an historical analysis, rather thinly-veiled political activism designed as a call to reform the system.\nWhile researching for my individual paper that contributed to \u201cNo Discretion\u201d, a wise historian told me that in the wake of the Coalition-Prorogation Crisis of 2008, many scholars have conflated the political with the constitutional (in other words, used their political views in order to make an interpretations of the constitution) and thus failed to maintain the distinctions between the two. I could not agree more, and I would extend the distinction to one of constitutional scholarship vs. political activism.\nThe Origins of Prime Ministerial Centralization of the Governor-in-Council\u2019s Crown Prerogative\nFixed-Elections\nFixed Elections: Why Harper Did Not \u201cBreak His Own Law\u201d in 2008\nProrogation as a Prime Ministerial Delay Tactic\nThis entry was posted in Articles and Books, Crown (Powers and Office), Governor's Discretion, Reviews and Critiques and tagged \"abuse of power\", \"bad faith\", 2011, Democratizing the Constitution, dissolution, efficient and dignified functions, Fixed-Term Parliaments Act, Letters Patent 1947, Lori Turnbull, Manual of Official Procedure of the Government of Canada, Mark Jarvis, Nicholas A.

        "title": "America: More Like El Salvador Every Day \u2013 The Peace House Oklahoma City",
        "raw_content": "September 25, 2005 June 19, 2011 by Peace House OKC\nOPS News, September, 2005\nI preface these remarks with the encouragement that elections and voting are the only viable means for changing the faces in government enacting policies affecting all of us. Beginning with President Ronald Reagan\u2019s two terms, I have observed an America becoming more like El Salvador every day.\nDuring the 1980s, under President Reagan, the UmiliS annually poured $500 million dollars into El Salvador in mostly military aid to support the government\u2019s defensive war against its own people.\nEl Salvador was ruled by 14 families which owned or controlled everything \u2014 police, army, industry, commerce, media, government \u2014 everything. And 90% of the people of El Salvador survived on poverty wages, often doing seasonal work, without benefits or access to public education, public health services, even safe water or sanitation. Little wonder that popular movements for social change, which had met no success lobbying their government nonviolently for decades, evolved into an organized revolutionary force determined to overthrow the elitist oligarchy misruling the tiny nation.\nSometime in the late 1980s I had the thought that if the US government was willing to spend $5 billion in El Salvador to support an elitist government maintaining policies \u201cof, for, and by the rich\u201d then maybe El Salvador was the model of how they felt a nation should be managed. Since then, each year, incrementally, America has become more like El Salvador.\nNumerous tax cuts through the decades have benefited primarily the rich, leaving programs unfunded which traditionally helped America\u2019s most vulnerable citizens. Virtually gone are the mental health institutions whose clients now wander the streets in confusion. Today, they end up in jail alongside criminals. Meanwhile, the number of billionaires in America has grown, from some 13 in 1980, to more than 300 today.\nThe disparity of wealth between America\u2019s rich and poor is the largest in history, and is the largest of any other nation. Meanwhile, some 2.1 million people are incarcerated in the US, a higher percentage of our population than any other nation. The US military budget today is around $500 billion per year, about half of what the whole world spends on military preparedness or actions.\nThe Salvadoran government in the 1970s and 1980s was committed to maintaining a system which enforced the status quo of rich and poor. To this end, the government targeted organizers of popular organizations, or any organization working to improve the lives of the poor, and simply had them \u201cdisappeared\u201d by death squads. The United States naturally denied any knowledge or complicity in this wholesale slaughter of tens of thousands of \u201cliberals\u201d in El Salvador, but it is not possible that US leadership was unaware of what was going on.\nWould the US government knowingly do such things?\nA year and a half ago, it was reported in some of our news media that US government officials concerned that the war in Iraq was going badly were considering a \u201cSalvador Option\u201d in Iraq. Not only was this an admission that US leaders had known all along about the assassination campaigns in El Salvador, it also revealed that the plan was being dusted off to be implemented again, in Iraq.\nAnd, indeed, just a week ago, it was reported that United Nations human rights observers were expressing concern about the rising numbers of \u201cextrajudicial killings\u201d in Iraq, and evidence that many such corpses displayed evidence of torture before death. Is it possible that the US and its Iraqi collaborators are implementing the \u201cSalvador Option\u201d in Iraq already?\nIn 1988, the FCC policy was repealed which mandated equal time for a \u201cfair response\u201d if someone felt they had been unfairly characterized in the media or a news broadcast was simply erroneous. Some of us remember calling a radio or TV station and requesting time to reply to some outrageous news story about an issue or person. Because that policy was repealed, there is no legal recourse to today\u2019s right-wing \u201cshock jocks\u201d who broadcast misinformation, disinformation, lies and calumny 24 hours a day on the 1500 or so radio stations of Clear Channel Communications or the Fox News Network.\nPart of today\u2019s challenge is communicating to our fellow Americans that there is no longer reliable information available through much of the corporate-controlled \u201cnews media.\u201d TV and radio news \u201canchors\u201d often realize that their job is not to investigate or challenge the stories placed before them, but simply to participate in broadcasting \u201cnews lite\u201d which ignores information challenging to US policy, or which just distracts people from issues affecting their lives.\nThe two women \u2014 Malka Drucker and Gay Block \u2014 who produced the remarkable \u201cRescuers\u201d exhibit now on display in Oklahoma City as part of the Holocaust Exhibition \u2014 free and open every day through October 23rd, at the \u201cUntitled Artspace\u201d at 1 NE 3rd St. \u2014 made a telling point about the Holocaust during the Nazi regime. They said that everyone in Europe fell into one of four categories: 1) perpetrators, 2) victims, 3) rescuers, and 4) bystanders.\nEach of us is challenged today to define ourselves in regard to issues of justice and compassion in the world affecting all six billion people on the planet \u2026 and Nature too. Whatever issue calls most clearly to you, I pray that you may find energy, meaning and value in engagement, and resist with all your spirit the temptation to remain simply a bystander.\nThe world desperately needs every one of us now: artists, poets, musicians, chefs, carpenters, mothers, bankers, speakers, lobbyists, politicians and political activists.\nAs the late Archbishop Oscar Romero said before he was assassinated in El Salvador in 1980, \u201cEveryone can do something.\u201d Romero\u2019s life and words have much to teach us today. I invite you to read the Romero retrospective on page 6.\nCategories Oklahoma Peace StrategyTags El Salvador, foreign policy, military\tPost navigation",

        "raw_content": "Topics: Faith, Overcoming Adversity, Strength, Trials\nI\u2019ve never been in a fist-fight. As a dude, I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s something to be embarrassed or proud of, but nevertheless, it\u2019s the truth. I have, however, been punched a few times: once by a kid in high school who I had overly annoyed, once by a total stranger at a theme park who I can only assume thought that I was someone else, and once during a church service by a mentally challenged student in my youth group. But I don\u2019t think any of those can technically be counted as fights since I didn\u2019t hit back.\nI was never the rough-and-tumble kind of kid; fighting really wasn\u2019t in my DNA. While some boys\u2019 fathers were teaching them to throw a punch, mine was teaching me to play Beatles songs on the piano. I also played saxophone in the high-school band, which I think pretty much sums up my level of raw aggression. Of course, like any other teenage boy, I took a few swings at the guy in the mirror when no one else was around to watch: \u201cYou talkin\u2019 to me?\u201d I\u2019d ask myself before I threw a lethal (albeit imaginary) right hook to my own face. I remember imagining what it would be like to go mano-a-mano with someone else. I had decided that if I were ever actually in a situation that came to fisticuffs, my technique would be to just look at the guy with crazy eyes and then begin laughing maniacally and flailing my arms in an effort to weird him out so much that he would just leave me alone. In retrospect, it\u2019s probably a good thing I was never in a fight because with techniques like that, it could have only ended badly for me.\nTwo separate letters of the New Testament were written from Paul to a young man named Timothy\u2014someone who was at that time roughly the age I am now. Also like me, Timothy was not much of a natural-born fighter. We know from 2 Timothy 1:4 that he cried a lot, and he may have struggled with being timid and shy (vs. 7). Paul had to exhort him in both letters to stop ignoring the gift that was in him (1 Tim. 4:14) and to rekindle some excitement and passion about what God had called him to do (2 Tim. 1:6). In 2 Timothy 1:5 Paul says, \u201cI call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice.\u201d Of course this is ultimately a good thing, and I\u2019m sure Paul meant it as a compliment, but what full-grown man wants to be told by his mentor that he reminds him so much of two older women\u2013his mom and grandma? Understanding these clues to Timothy\u2019s personality helps us gain perspective on why Paul would\u2019ve had to write to him and tell him emphatically to \u201cfight the good fight of faith\u201d (1 Tim. 6:12). It is entirely possible that Timothy was clinging tightly to this letter, struggling to read Paul\u2019s handwriting through the tears filling his eyes because of the persecution against him personally and against the church at that time.\n\u201cBe constantly engaging in the contest of the Faith, which contest is marked by its beauty of technique.\u201d\n1 Timothy 6:12 (wuest)\nIt all would\u2019ve been enough to make even the strongest of men want to run and hide, yet Paul is telling this young man who doesn\u2019t have a confrontational bone in his body to get up, put on his spiritual gloves, get in the ring, and fight. Like it or not, these words are written as much to you and me as they were to Timothy, and we share in the same responsibility to fight the good fight of faith, regardless of our personality types or lack of fighting instincts or experience.\nI like how this verse reads in the Wuest translation of the New Testament. It says, \u201cBe constantly engaging in the contest of the Faith, which contest is marked by its beauty of technique.\u201d When Paul told Timothy to fight, he was telling him to be constantly engaged in this contest of faith. Maybe Timothy felt like every Christian has at one time or another\u2014discouraged in his faith, not quickly seeing the results he\u2019d hoped for and expected. But when you let discouragement hang around, soon you\u2019ll discover that you\u2019ve disengaged entirely from the fight like a boxer standing in the ring with his hands at his sides allowing his opponent to mercilessly land blow after blow. Paul is Timothy\u2019s trainer in his corner yelling, \u201cGet your hands up! Get back in the fight!\u201d It\u2019s all too easy to come out swinging in the early rounds only to lose heart as the fight seems to drag on and on well past the time you thought it would. But we must never quit fighting no matter how many rounds it goes. We can\u2019t afford to take \u201cfaith breaks,\u201d choosing to walk and talk by sight for a time while our opponent hits our bodies, our families, or our finances. Listen right now, and you will hear the Holy Spirit shouting from your corner, \u201cReengage! Get back in the fight!\u201d\nNotice, Paul didn\u2019t tell Timothy simply to fight the fight of faith. He told him to fight \u201cthe good fight\u201d of faith. When you look up the word good, you find that it means \u201cbeautiful or handsome to look at; excellent in its characteristics.\u201d Paul wasn\u2019t just telling Timothy to fight; he was telling him to fight and to be good at it! Again, that is why the Wuest translation said that the contest of faith is one \u201cmarked by the beauty of its technique.\u201d Evidently there is a measure of skill and technique required in fighting and winning the fight of faith because our opponent isn\u2019t going to be scared off by crazy eyes, strange noises, or wildly flailing arms. If this is going to be a good fight, then you are going to have to be better at what you do than your opponent is at what he does. As long as your faith packs a bigger punch than his fear, you will win the fight.\nPaul asks us in 1 Corinthians 9:24, \u201cDo you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.\u201d According to this verse, it\u2019s not enough to just be in the race: God wants you to win it, and winning is dependent on the way you run. He goes on in verse 26 to describe his technique\u2014the way he runs the race. \u201cTherefore I run thus: not with uncertainty.\u201d Sadly most people don\u2019t even know they are in a race, living each day without a sense of urgency, expectancy, or any awareness of the call of God on their lives.\nHowever, there are those, like you and me, who not only know that we are in a race, but we can say with certainty who we are running for and what we are running towards. Running with this kind of certainty separates us from the rest of the pack and ensures that we will receive the prize at the end of the race. But notice the next phrase in verse 26: Paul switches sports from running to fighting when he says, \u201cThus I fight: not as one who beats the air.\u201d When I think of someone beating the air, it reminds me of being a kid, standing in front of the mirror pretending to fight the guy in front of me. I would throw punch after punch into the air but never actually make contact.\n\u201cYour words of faith should carry weight and land heavy blows in the face of fear, doubt, and unbelief.\u201d\nAnd that\u2019s the problem with beating the air; you never actually make contact. And if you never make contact, then you\u2019ll never have impact. You want to be like Paul, unwilling to live a life that makes no impact on the world around you. You want your fight of faith to make an impact for the kingdom of God, against the kingdom of darkness. Your words of faith should carry weight and land heavy blows in the face of fear, doubt, and unbelief. Sickness and disease are weak, glass-jawed opponents that will go down for the count, but only for those who are good at fighting the fight, not for those who are \u201ctrying out\u201d faith principles and fail to stay engaged in the fight till the end.\nI know there are many that feel like they\u2019re being hit in different areas of their lives, like they\u2019re being beat up by financial pressure, symptoms of sickness, etc. To those I say that it\u2019s not a fight until you swing back. So make it a fight, and make it a good one! Don\u2019t take this lying down any longer, and stop using the excuse that fighting isn\u2019t really in your DNA. My dad may have never taught me to throw a punch, but he did teach me to fight the fight of faith by believing and speaking the Word of God until things changed and my faith became sight. And now that I\u2019m a father, I am training up my own little fighters, showing them the ropes of living and walking by faith. You could say that fighting is in our blood. And since God is your Father, and Jesus, the One who defeated death, hell, and the grave, is your Brother; that means fighting is in your blood too. It\u2019s in your born-again DNA. So get back up on your faith. Reengage in this fight with a grace, skill, and technique that leaves your adversary the devil wishing he\u2019d picked a fight with anyone else but you.",

The model replaces primary energy rows in monetary value, namely, coal, gas, crude oil, and renewable energy, with physical flow units in order to overcome errors associated with the proportionality assumption in environmental I/O analysis models. Model development and data use are explained and compared with other approaches in the field of environmental life cycle assessment. The model is applied to evaluate the primary energy embodied in economic output to meet Chinese final consumption for the year 2007. Direct and indirect carbon dioxide emissions intensities are determined. We find that different final demand categories pose distinctive requirements on the primary energy mix. Also, a considerable amount of energy is embodied in the supply chain of secondary industries. Embodied energy and emissions are crucial to consider for policy development in China based on consumption, rather than production. Consumption-based policies will likely play a more important role in China when per capita income levels have reached those of western countries.\n10.1111/jiec.12119\nCO2 emissions, coal, energy balance, hybrid life cycle assessment, industrial ecology, input-output life cycle assessment (I/O-LCA)\nRevisiting the Global Net Carbon Dioxide Emission Transfers by International Trade: The Impact of Trade Heterogeneity of China\nVirtual water flows in the EU27: A consumption-based approach\nAnalyzing drivers of regional carbon dioxide emissions for China: A structural decomposition analysis\nComparative analysis of carbonization drivers in China's megacities",

The design requirements for the balance of systems components in a PV system are addressed, including conductor selection and sizing, overcurrent protection ratings and location, and disconnect ratings and location. PV array, battery, charge controller, and inverter sizing and selection are not covered, as these items are the responsibility of the system designer, and they in turn determine the items in this manual. Stand-alone, hybrid, and utility-interactive PV systems are all covered. References are made to applicable sections of the NEC.

The original Code document was developed in 1897. With few exceptions, electrical power systems installed in the United States in this century have had to comply with the NEC. This includes many photovoltaic (PV) power systems. In 1984, Article 690, which addresses safety standards for installation of PV systems, was added to the Code. This article has been revised and expanded in the 1987, 1990, 1993, 1996, and 1999 editions. Many of the PV systems in use and being installed today may not be in compliance with the NEC and other local codes. There are several contributing factors to this situation:\nFactors that have reduced local and NEC compliance\nThe PV industry has a strong \u201cgrass roots,\u201d do-it-yourself faction that is not fully aware of the dangers associated with low-voltage and high-voltage, direct-current (dc), PV-power systems.\nSome people in the PV community may believe that PV systems below 50 volts are not covered by the NEC.\nElectricians and electrical inspectors have not had significant experience with direct-current portions of the Code or PV power systems.\nThe electrical equipment industries do not advertise or widely distribute equipment suitable for dc use that meets NEC requirements.\nPopular publications are presenting information to the public that implies that PV systems are easily installed, modified, and maintained by untrained personnel.\nPhotovoltaic equipment manufacturers have, in some cases, been unable to afford the costs associated with testing and listing by approved testing laboratories like Underwriters Laboratories or ETL.\nPhotovoltaic installers and dealers in many cases have not had significant experience installing ac residential and/or commercial power systems.\nSome PV installers in the United States are licensed electricians or use licensed electrical contractors and are familiar with all sections of the NEC. These installer/contractors are trained to install reliable PV systems that meet the NEC and minimize the hazards associated with electrical power systems. Some PV installations have numerous defects that typically stem from unfamiliarity with electrical power system codes or unfamiliarity with dc currents and power systems. They often do not meet the requirements of the NEC. Some of the more prominent problems are listed below.\nObserved PV installation problems\nImproper ampacity of conductors\nImproper type of conductors\nUnsafe wiring methods\nLack of overcurrent protection on conductors\nInadequate number and placement of disconnects\nImproper application of listed equipment\nNo, or underrated, short-circuit or overcurrent protection on battery systems\nUse of non-approved components when approved components are available\nImproper system grounding\nLack of, or improper, equipment grounding\nUse of underrated components\nUse of ac components (fuses and switches) in dc applications\nThe NEC may apply to any PV systems regardless of size or location. A single, small PV module may not present a significant hazard, and a small system in a remote location may present few safety hazards because people are seldom in the area. On the other hand, two or three modules 2\nconnected to a battery can be lethal if not installed and operated properly. A single deep-cycle storage battery (6 volts, 220 amp-hours) can discharge about 8,000 amps into a short-circuit. Systems with voltages of 50 volts or higher present shock hazards. Short circuits on lower voltage systems present fire and equipment hazards. Storage batteries can be dangerous; hydrogen gas and acid residue from lead-acid batteries must be dealt with safely. The problems are compounded because, unlike ac systems, there are few UL-Listed components that can be easily \u201cplugged\u201d together to make a PV system. Connectors and devices do not have mating inputs or outputs, and the knowledge and understanding of \"what works with what\" is not second nature to the installer. The dc \u201ccookbook\u201d of knowledge does not yet exist.\nMethods of Achieving Objectives To meet the objective of safe, reliable, durable photovoltaic power systems, the following suggestions are presented: \u2022\nDealer-installers of PV systems should become familiar with the NEC methods of wiring residential and commercial ac power systems.\nAll PV installations should be inspected, where required, by the local inspection authority in the same manner as other equivalent electrical systems.\nPhotovoltaic equipment manufacturers should build equipment to meet UL or other recognized standards and have equipment tested and listed.\nListed subcomponents should be used in assembled equipment where formal testing and listing is not possible.\nElectrical equipment manufacturers should produce, distribute, and advertise, listed, reasonably priced, dc-rated components.\nElectrical inspectors should become familiar with dc and PV systems.\nThe PV industry should educate the public, modify advertising, and encourage all installers to comply with the NEC.\nExisting PV installations should be upgraded to comply with the NEC or modified to meet minimum safety standards.\nScope and Purpose of the NEC Some local inspection authorities use regional electrical codes, but most jurisdictions use the National Electrical Code \u2013sometimes with slight modifications. The NEC states that adherence to the recommendations made will reduce the hazards associated with electrical installations. The NEC also says these recommendations may not lead to improvements in efficiency, convenience, or adequacy for good service or future expansion of electrical use [90-1]. (Numbers in brackets refer to sections in the 1999 NEC.) The National Electrical Code addresses nearly all PV power installations, even those with voltages less than 50 volts [720]. It covers stand-alone and grid-connected systems. It covers billboards, other remote applications, floating buildings, and recreational vehicles (RV) [90-2(a), 690]. The Code deals with any PV system that produces power and has external wiring or electrical components or contacts accessible to the untrained and unqualified person. There are some exceptions. The National Electrical Code does not cover PV installations in automobiles, railway cars, boats, or on utility company properties used for power generation [902(b)]. It also does not cover micropower systems used in watches, calculators, or self-contained electronic equipment that have no external electrical wiring or contacts. Article 690 of the NEC specifically deals with PV systems, but many other sections of the NEC contain requirements for any electrical system including PV systems [90-2, 720]. When there is a conflict between Article 690 of the NEC and any other article, Article 690 takes precedence [690-3]. The NEC suggests, and most inspection officials require, that equipment identified, listed, labeled, or tested by an approved testing laboratory be used when available [90-7,100,110-3]. Two of the several national testing organizations commonly acceptable to most jurisdictions are the Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and ETL Testing Laboratories, Inc. Underwriters Laboratories and UL are registered trademarks of Underwriters Laboratories Inc., 333 Pfingsten Road, Northbrook, IL 60062. Most building and electrical inspectors expect to see UL on electrical products used in electrical systems in the United States. This presents a problem for some in the PV industry, because low production rates do not yet justify the costs of testing and listing by UL or other laboratory. Some manufacturers claim their product specifications exceed those required by the testing organizations, but inspectors readily admit to not having the expertise, time, or funding to validate these unlabeled items.\nThis Guide The recommended installation practices contained in this guide progress from the photovoltaic modules to the electrical outlets. For each component, NEC requirements are addressed, and the appropriate Code sections are referenced in brackets. A sentence, phrase, or paragraph followed by a NEC reference refers to a requirement established by the NEC. The words \u201cwill,\u201d \u201c shall,\u201d or \u201cmust\u201d also refer to NEC requirements. Suggestions based on field experience with PV systems are worded as such and will use the word \u201cshould.\u201d The recommendations apply to the use of listed products. The word \u201cCode\u201d in this document refers to the NEC. Appendix A provides a limited list of sources for dc-rated and identified, listed, or approved products, and reference to the products is made as they are discussed. Other appendices address details and issues associated with implementing the NEC in PV installations. Examples are included.\nPhotovoltaic Modules Numerous PV module manufacturers offer listed modules at the present time. Other manufacturers are considering having their PV modules listed by an acceptable testing laboratory. Methods of connecting wiring to the modules vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. The NEC does not require conduit, but local jurisdictions, particularly in commercial installations, may require conduit. The Code requires that strain relief be provided for connecting wires. If the module has a closed weatherproof junction box, strain relief and moisture-tight clamps should be used in any knockouts provided for field wiring. Where the weather-resistant gaskets are a part of the junction box, the manufacturer\u2019s instructions must be followed to ensure proper strain relief and weatherproofing [110-3(b), UL Standard 1703 ]. Figure 1 shows various types of strain relief clamps. The one on the left is a basic cable clamp for interior use with nonmetallic sheathed cable (Romex\uf8e8 ) that cannot be used for module wiring. The clamps in the center (T&B) and on the right (Heyco) are watertight and can be used with either single or multiconductor cable\u2014depending on the insert.\nFigure 1. Strain Reliefs\nMODULE MARKING Certain electrical information must appear on each module. The information on the factory-installed label will include the following items:\nManufacturer supplied information\nPolarity of output terminals or leads\nMaximum series fuse for module protection\nRated open-circuit voltage\nRated operating voltage\nRated operating current\nRated short-circuit current\nRated maximum power\nMaximum permissible system voltage [690-51]\nAlthough not required by the NEC, the temperature rating of the module terminals and conductors are given to determine the temperature rating of the insulation of the conductors and how the ampacity of those conductors must be derated for temperature [110-14(c)]. Figure 2 shows a typical label that appears on the back of a module. Note: Other critical information, such as mechanical installation instructions, tolerances of indicated values of Isc, Voc and Pmax, and statements on artificially concentrated sunlight are contained in the installation and assembly instructions for the module.\nFigure 2. Label on Typical PV Module\nMODULE INTERCONNECTIONS Copper conductors are recommended for almost all photovoltaic system wiring [110-5]. Copper conductors have lower voltage drops and good resistance to corrosion. Aluminum or copper-clad aluminum wires can be used in certain applications, but the use of such cables is not recommended\u2014particularly in dwellings. All wire sizes presented in this guide refer to copper conductors. The NEC requires 12 American Wire Gage (AWG) or larger conductors to be used with systems under 50 volts [720-4]. Article 690 ampacity calculations yielding a smaller conductor size might override Article 720 considerations, but some inspectors are using the Article 720 requirement for dc circuits. The Code has little information for conductor sizes smaller than 14 AWG, but Section 69031d provides some guidance. Single-conductor, Type UF (Underground Feeder \u2014 Identified (marked) as Sunlight Resistant), Type SE (Service Entrance), or Type USE (Underground Service Entrance) cables are permitted for module interconnect wiring [69031(b)]. Stranded wire is suggested to ease servicing of the modules after installation and for durability [690-34]. Unfortunately, single-conductor, stranded, UF sunlight-resistant cable is not readily available and may have only a 60\u00b0C temperature rating. This insulation is not suitable for long-term exposure to direct sunlight at temperatures likely to occur near PV modules. Such wire has shown signs of deterioration after four years of exposure. Temperatures exceeding 60\u00b0C normally occur in the vicinity of the modules; therefore, conductors with 60\u00b0C insulation cannot be used. SUGGESTED PRACTICES\nThe widely available Underground Service Entrance Cable (USE-2) is suggested as the best cable to use for module interconnects. When manufactured to the UL Standards, it has a 90\u00b0C temperature rating and is sunlight resistant even though not commonly marked as such. The \u201c-2\u201d marking indicates at wet-rated 90\u00b0C insulation, the preferred rating. Additional markings indicating XLP or XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) and RHW-2 (90\u00b0C insulation when wet) ensure that the highest quality cable is being used [Tables 310-13,16, and 17]. USE-2 is acceptable to most electrical inspectors. The RHH and RHW-2 designations frequently found on USE-2 cable allow its use in conduit inside buildings. USE or USE-2 cables, without the other markings, do not have the fire-retardant additives that SE cable has and cannot be used inside buildings. The temperature derated ampacity of conductors at any point must be at least 156% of the module (or array of parallel modules) rated short-circuit current at that point [690-8(a), (b)]. If flexible, two-conductor cable is needed, electrical tray cable (Type TC) is available but must be supported in a specific manner as outlined in the NEC [318 and 340]. TC is sunlight resistant and is generally marked as such. Although frequently used for module interconnections, SO, SOJ, and similar flexible, portable cables and cordage may not be sunlight resistant and are not approved for fixed (non-portable) installations [400-7, 8].\nTRACKING MODULES Where there are moving parts of an array, such as a flat-plate tracker or concentrating modules, the NEC does allow the use of flexible cords and cables [400-7(a), 690-31(c)]. When these types of cables are used, they should be selected for extra-hard usage with full outdoor ratings (marked \"WA\" on the cable). They should not be used in conduit. Temperature derating information is provided by Table 690-31c. A derating factor in the range of 0.33 to 0.58 should be used for flexible cables used as module interconnects. Trackers in PV systems operate at relatively slow angular rates and with limited motion. Normal stranded wire (USE-2 or THWN-2 in flexible conduit) has demonstrated good performance without deterioration due to flexing. Another possibility is the use of extra flexible (400+ strands) building cable type USE-RHH-RHW or THW. This cable is available from the major wire distributors (Appendix A). Cable types, such as THW or RHW that are not sunlight resistant should be installed in flexible liquidtight conduit.\nTERMINALS Module junction boxes have various types of terminals or pigtail leads (with and without connectors). The instructions furnished with each module will state the\nacceptable size and type of wires for use with the terminals. Some modules may require the use of crimp-on terminals when stranded conductors are used. Light-duty crimping tools designed for crimping smaller wires used in electronic components usually do not provide sufficient force to make long-lasting crimps on connectors for PV installations even though they may be sized for 12-10 AWG. Insulated terminals crimped with these light-duty crimpers frequently develop high-resistance connections in a short time and may even fail as the wire pulls out of the terminal. It is strongly suggested that only listed, heavy-duty industrial-type crimpers be used for PV system wiring where crimp-on terminals are required. Figure 3 shows four styles of crimpers. On the far left is a stripper/crimper used for electronics work that will crimp only insulated terminals. Second from the left is a stripper/crimper that can make crimps on both insulated and uninsulated terminals. The pen points to the dies used for uninsulated terminals. With some care, this crimper can be used to crimp uninsulated terminals on PV systems. The two crimpers on the right are listed, heavy-duty industrial designs with ratcheting jaws and interchangeable dies that will provide the highest quality connections. They are usually available from electrical supply houses.\nFigure 3. Terminal Crimpers\nFigure 4. Insulated and Uninsulated Terminals Figure 4 shows some examples of insulated and uninsulated terminals. In general, uninsulated terminals are preferred (with insulation applied later if required), but care must be exercised to obtain the heavier, more reliable UL-Listed terminals and not unlisted electronic or automotive grades. Again, an electrical supply house rather than an electronic or automotive parts store is the place to find the required items. Listed terminals are listed only when installed using the instructions supplied with the terminals and when used with the related crimping tool (usually manufactured by the same manufacturer as the terminals. If the junction box provides box-style pressure terminals, it is not necessary to use crimped terminals.\nTRANSITION WIRING Because of the relatively high cost of USE-2 and TC cables and wire, they are usually connected to less expensive cable at the first junction box leading to an interior location. All PV system wiring must be made using one of the methods included in the NEC [690-31, Chapter 3]. Single-conductor, exposed wiring is not permitted except for module wiring or with special permission [Chapter 3]. The most common methods used for PV systems are individual conductors in electrical metallic tubing (EMT), nonmetallic conduit, or nonmetallic sheathed cable.\nWhere individual conductors are used in conduit, they should be conductors with at least 90\u00b0C insulation such as RHW-2, THW-2, THWN-2 or XHHW-2. Conduits installed in exposed locations are considered to be installed in wet locations [100-Locations]. These conduits may have water entrapped in low spots and therefore only conductors with wet ratings are acceptable in conduits that are located in exposed or buried locations. The conduit can be either thick-wall (rigid, galvanized-steel, RGS or intermediate, metal-conduit, IMC) or thin-wall electrical metallic tubing (EMT) [348], and if rigid, nonmetallic conduit is used, electrical (gray) PVC (Schedule 40 or Schedule 80) rather than plumbing (white) PVC tubing must be used [347]. Two-conductor (with ground) UF cable (a jacketed or sheathed cable) that is marked sunlight resistant is frequently used between the module interconnect wiring and the PV disconnect device. Splices from the conductors from the modules to this wire when located outside must be protected in rain-proof junction boxes such as NEMA type 3R. Cable clamps must also be used. Figure 5 shows a rain-proof box with a pressure connector terminal strip installed for module wiring connections. Cable clamps used with this box must be listed for outdoor use.\nFigure 5. Listed Rain-proof Junction Box with Listed, Custom Terminal Strip Interior exposed cable runs can also be made with sheathed, multi-conductor cable types such as NM, NMB, and UF. The cable should not be subjected to physical abuse. If abuse is possible, physical protection must be provided [300-4, SUGGESTED PRACTICES\n336 B, 339]. Exposed, single-conductor cable (commonly used between batteries and inverters) shall not be used\u2014except as module interconnect conductors [3003(a)]. Battery-to-inverter cables are normally single-conductor cables installed in conduit.\nWiring MODULE CONNECTORS Module connectors that are concealed at the time of installation must be able to resist the environment, be polarized, and be able to handle the short-circuit current. They shall also be of a latching design with the terminals guarded. The equipment-grounding member, if used, shall make first and break last [690-32, 33]. The UL standard also requires that the connectors for positive and negative conductors should not be interchangeable.\nMODULE CONNECTION ACCESS All junction boxes and other locations where module wiring connections are made shall be accessible. Removable modules and stranded wiring may allow accessibility [690-34]. The modules should not be permanently fixed (welded) to mounting frames, and solid wire that could break when modules are moved to service the junction boxes should not be used. Open spaces behind the modules would allow access to the junction boxes.\nSPLICES All splices (other than the connectors mentioned above) must be made in approved junction boxes with an approved splicing method. Conductors must be twisted firmly to make a good electrical and mechanical connection, then brazed, welded, or soldered, and then taped [110-14(b)]. Mechanical splicing devices such as split-bolt connectors or terminal strips are also acceptable. Crimped splicing connectors may also be used if listed splicing devices and listed, heavyduty crimpers are used. Properly used box-type pressure connectors (Figure 7) give high reliability. Fuse blocks, fused disconnects, and circuit breakers are available with these pressure connectors. Twist-on wire connectors (approved for splicing wires), when listed for the environment (dry, damp, wet, or direct burial) are acceptable splicing devices. In most cases, they must be used inside enclosures, except when used in directburial applications.\nWhere several modules are connected in series and parallel, a terminal block or bus bar arrangement must be used so that one source circuit can be disconnected without disconnecting the grounded (on grounded systems) conductor of other source circuits [690-4(c)]. On grounded systems, this indicates that the popular \u201cDaisy Chain\u201d method of connecting modules may not always be acceptable, because removing one module in the chain may disconnect the grounded conductor for all of those modules in other parallel chains or source circuits. This becomes more critical on larger systems where paralleled sets of long series strings of modules are used. Figure 6 shows unacceptable and acceptable methods. Generally, 12- and 24-volt systems can be daisy chained, but higher voltage systems should not be. Several different types of terminal blocks and strips are shown in Figure 7. The larger blocks are made by Marathon (Appendix A). Any terminal block used must be listed for \u201cfield-installed wiring.\u201d Many are only \u201cRecognized\u201d by UL for use inside factory assembled, listed devices.

Power Splicing Blocks and Terminal Strips\nCONDUCTOR COLOR CODES The NEC established color codes for electrical power systems many years before either the automobile or electronics industries had standardized color codes. PV systems are being installed in an arena covered by the NEC and, therefore, must comply with NEC standards that apply to both ac and dc power systems. In a system where one conductor is grounded, the insulation on all grounded conductors must be white or natural gray or be any color except green if marked with white plastic tape or paint at each termination (marking allowed only on conductors larger than 6 AWG). Conductors used for module frame grounding and other exposed metal equipment grounding must be bare (no insulation) or have green or green with yellow-striped insulation or identification [200-6, 7; 210-5; 250-119]. The NEC requirements specify that the grounded conductor be white. In most PVpowered systems that are grounded, the grounded conductor is the negative conductor. Telephone systems that use positive grounds require special circuits when powered by PV systems that have negative grounds. In a PV system where the array is center tapped, the center tap or neutral must be grounded [690-41], and this becomes the white conductor. There is no NEC requirement designating the color of the ungrounded conductor, but the convention in power wiring is that the first two ungrounded conductors are colored black and red. This suggests that in two-wire, negative-grounded PV systems, the positive conductor could be red\nor any color with a red marking except green or white, and the negative grounded conductor must be white. In a three-wire, center-tapped system, the positive conductor could be red, the grounded, center tap conductor must be white and the negative conductor could be black. The NEC allows grounded PV array conductors, such as non-white USE or SE that are smaller than 6 AWG, to be marked with a white marker [200-6].\nBATTERY CABLES Battery cables, even though they can be 2/0 AWG and larger, must be a standard building-wire type conductor [Chapter 3]. Welding and automobile \u201cbattery\u201d cables are not allowed. Flexible, highly-stranded, building-wire type cables (USE/RHW and THW) are available for this use. Flexible cables, identified in Section 400 of the NEC are allowed from the battery terminals to a nearby junction box and between battery cells. These cables shall be listed for hard service use and moisture resistance [690-74].\nGround-Fault Protection and Array Disablement GROUND-FAULTS Article 690-5 of the NEC requires a ground-fault detection, interruption, and array disconnect (GFID) device for fire protection if the PV arrays are mounted on roofs of dwellings. Ground-mounted arrays are not required to have this device. Several devices or inverters are available that meet this requirement. These particular devices may require that the system grounding-electrode conductor be routed through the device. These devices include the following functions: \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nGround-fault detection Ground-fault current interruption Array disconnect Array wiring overcurrent protection\nGround-fault detection, interruption, and array disablement devices might, depending on the particular design, accomplish the following actions automatically: \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nSense ground-fault currents exceeding a specified value Interrupt or significantly reduce the fault currents Open the circuit between the array and the load Indicate the presence of the ground fault\nGround-fault devices have been developed for some grid-tied inverters and standalone systems, and others are under development.\nPV ARRAY INSTALLATION AND SERVICE Article 690-18 requires that a mechanism be provided to allow safe installation or servicing of portions of the array or the entire array. The term \"disable\" has several meanings, and the NEC is not clear on what is intended. The NEC Handbook does elaborate. Disable can be defined several ways: \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nPrevent the PV system from producing any output Reduce the output voltage to zero Reduce the output current to zero Divide the array into non-hazardous segments\nThe output could be measured at either the PV source terminals or at the load terminals. Fire fighters are reluctant to fight a fire in a high-voltage battery room because there is no way to turn off a battery bank unless the electrolyte can somehow be removed. In a similar manner, the only way a PV system can have zero output at the array terminals is by preventing light from illuminating the modules. The output voltage may be reduced to zero by shorting the PV module or array terminals. When this is done, short-circuit current will flow through the shorting conductor which, in a properly wired system, does no harm. The output current may be reduced to zero by disconnecting the PV array from the rest of the system. The PV disconnect switch would accomplish this action, but open-circuit voltages would still be present on the array wiring and in the disconnect box. In a large system, 100 amps of short-circuit current (with a shorted array) can be as difficult to handle as an open-circuit voltage of 600 volts. During PV module installations, the individual PV modules can be covered to disable them. For a system in use, the PV disconnect switch is opened during maintenance, and the array is either short circuited or left open circuited depending on the circumstances. In practical terms, for a large array, some provision (switch or bolted connection) should be made to disconnect portions of the array from other sections for servicing. As individual modules or sets of modules are serviced, they may be covered and/or isolated and shorted to reduce the potential for electrical shock. Aside from measuring short-circuit current, there is little that can be serviced on a module or array when it is shorted. The circuit is usually open circuited for repairs.\nGrounding The subject of grounding is one of the most confusing issues in electrical installations. Definitions from Article 100 of the NEC will clarify the situation. Grounded:\nConnected to the earth or to a metallic conductor or surface that serves as earth.\nGrounded Conductor:\nA system conductor that normally carries current and is intentionally grounded. In PV systems, one conductor (normally the negative) of a two-conductor system or the center-tapped wire of a bipolar system is grounded.\n(white or natural gray) Equipment Grounding Conductor: (bare, green, or green with yellow stripe) Grounding Electrode Conductor:\nA conductor not normally carrying current used to connect the exposed metal portions of equipment to the grounding electrode system or the grounded conductor. A conductor not normally carrying current used to connect the grounded conductor to the grounding electrode or grounding electrode system.\nGROUNDING\u2014SYSTEM For a two-wire PV system over 50 volts (125% of open-circuit PV-output voltage), one dc conductor shall be grounded. In a three-wire system, the neutral or center tap of the dc system shall be grounded [690-41]. These requirements apply to both stand-alone and grid-tied systems. Such system grounding will enhance personnel safety and minimize the effects of lightning and other induced surges on equipment. Also, the grounding of all PV systems (even 12-volt systems) will reduce radio frequency noise from dc-operated fluorescent lights and inverters.\nSize of Grounding Electrode Conductor The direct-current system-grounding electrode conductor shall not be smaller than 6 AWG or the largest conductor supplied by the system [250166]. If the conductors between the battery and inverter are 4/0 AWG (for example) then the grounding-electrode conductor from the negative conductor (assuming that this is the grounded conductor) to the grounding electrode must be 4/0 AWG. The NEC allows exceptions to this large grounding conductor requirement. Many PV systems can use a 6 AWG grounding electrode conductor if that is the only connection to the grounding electrode [250-166(c)].\nPoint of Connection The system grounding electrode conductor for the direct-current portion of a PV system shall be connected to the PV-output circuits [690-42] at a single point. When this connection is made close to the modules, added protection from surges is afforded. Disconnect switches must not open grounded conductors [690-13]. In stand-alone PV systems, the charge controller may be considered a part of the PV-output circuit, and the point of connecting the grounding electrode conductor could be before or after the charge controller. But this grounding conductor may be a very large conductor (e.g., 4/0 AWG) while the conductors to and from the charge controller may be 10 AWG or smaller. Connecting the 4/0 AWG grounding conductor on the array side of the charge controller, while providing some degree of enhanced surge suppression from lightning induced surges, may not meet the full intent of the grounding requirements. Connecting the grounding conductor to the system on the battery side of the charge controller at a point where the system conductors are the largest size will provide better system grounding at the expense of less lightning protection. Since the NEC allows smaller grounding electrode conductors in certain circumstances, either grounding conductor point of connection may be acceptable [250-166]. Figure 8 shows two possible locations for the grounding conductor.

Typical System: Possible Grounding Conductor Locations\nThe NEC does not specifically define where the PV-output circuits end. Circuits from the battery toward the load are definitely load circuits. Since the heaviest conductors are from the battery to the inverter, and either end of these conductors is at the same potential, then either end could be considered a point for connecting the grounding conductor. The negative dc input to the inverter is connected to the metal case in some stand-alone inverter designs, but this is not an appropriate place to connect the grounding electrode conductor and other equipment-grounding conductors, since this circuit is a dc-branch circuit and not a PV-output circuit. Connection of the grounding electrode conductor to or near the negative battery terminal would avoid the \u201clarge-wire/small-wire\u201d problem outlined above. It is imperative that there be no more than one grounding connection to the grounded conductor of a PV system. Failure to limit the connections to one (1) will allow objectionable currents to flow in uninsulated conductors and will create unintentional ground faults in the grounded conductor [250-6]. Future ground-fault protection systems may require that this single grounding connection be made at a specific location. There are exceptions to this rule when PV arrays or generators are some distance from the main loads [250-32].\nUnusual Grounding Situations Some inverter designs use the entire chassis as part of the negative circuit. Also, the same situation exists in certain radios\u2014automobile and shortwave. These designs will not pass the current UL standards for consumer electrical equipment or PV systems and will probably require modification in the future since they do not provide electrical isolation between the exterior metal surfaces and the current-carrying conductors. They also create the very real potential for multiple grounded-conductor connections to ground. Since the case of these non-listed inverters is connected to the negative conductor and that case must be grounded as part of the equipment ground described below, the user has no choice whether or not the system is to be grounded. The system is grounded even if the voltage is less than 50 volts and the point of system ground is the negative input terminal on the inverter. It is strongly suggested that these unlisted inverters not be used and, in fact, to use them or any unlisted component is a violation of the NEC. Some telephone systems ground the positive conductor, and this may cause problems for PV-powered telephone systems with negative grounds. An isolated-ground, dc-to-dc converter may be used to power subsystems\nthat have different grounding polarities from the main system. In the ac realm, an isolation transformer will serve the same purpose. In larger utility-tied systems and some stand-alone systems, high impedance grounding systems or other methods that accomplish equivalent system protection and that use equipment listed and identified for the use might be used in lieu of, or in addition to, the required hard ground. The discussion and design of these systems are beyond the scope of this guide. Grounding of grid-tied systems will be discussed in Appendix C.\nCharge Controllers\u2014System Grounding In a grounded system, it is important that the charge controller does not have devices in the grounded conductor. Charge controllers listed to UL Standard 1741 meet this requirement. Relays or transistors in the grounded conductor create a situation where the grounded conductor is not at ground potential at times when the charge controller is operating. This condition violates provisions of the NEC that require all conductors identified as grounded conductors always be at the same potential (i.e. grounded). A shunt in the grounded conductor is equivalent to a wire if properly sized, but the user of such a charge controller runs the risk of having the shunt bypassed when inadvertent grounds occur in the system. The best charge controller design has only a straight-through conductor between the input and output terminals for the grounded current-carrying conductor (usually the negative conductor).\nGROUNDING\u2014EQUIPMENT All noncurrent-carrying exposed metal parts of junction boxes, equipment, and appliances in the entire electrical system shall be grounded [690-43; 250 D; 7201, -10]. All PV systems, regardless of voltage, must have an equipmentgrounding system for exposed metal surfaces (e.g., module frames and inverter cases) [690-43]. The equipment-grounding conductor shall be sized as required by Article 690-45 or 250-122. Generally, this will mean an equipment-grounding conductor size based on the size of the overcurrent device protecting each conductor. Table 250-122 in the NEC gives the sizes. For example, if the inverter to battery conductors are protected by a 400-amp fuse or circuit breaker, then at least a 3 AWG conductor must be used for the equipment ground for that circuit [Table 250-122]. If the current-carrying conductors have been oversized to lower voltage drop, then the size of the equipment-grounding conductor must also be proportionately adjusted [250-122(b)]. In the PV source circuits, if the array can provide short-circuit currents that are less than twice the rating of a particular overcurrent device for the array circuits, then equipment-grounding conductors must be used that are sized the same as the array current-carrying conductors 20\n[690-45]. In general, the overcurrent protection is sized at 1.56 Isc, but the available short-circuit currents are much greater from the batteries and other sources. This means that Table 250-122 of the NEC usually applies.\nINVERTER AC OUTPUTS The inverter output (120 or 240 volts) must be connected to the ac distribution system in a manner that does not create parallel grounding paths. The NEC requires that both the green or bare equipment-grounding conductor and the white neutral conductor be grounded. The Code also requires that current not normally flow in the equipment-grounding conductors. If the inverter has ac grounding receptacles as outputs, the grounding and neutral conductors are most likely connected to the chassis and, hence, to chassis ground inside the inverter. This configuration allows plug-in devices to be used safely. However, if the outlets on the inverter are plug and cord connected (not recommended) to an ac load center used as a distribution device, then problems can occur. The ac load center usually has the neutral and equipment-grounding conductors connected to the same bus bar which is connected to the case where they are grounded. Parallel current paths are created with neutral currents flowing in the equipment-grounding conductors. This problem can be avoided by using a load center with an isolated/insulated neutral bus bar which is separated from the equipment-grounding bus bar. Inverters with hard-wired outputs may or may not have internal connections. Some inverters with ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for outputs must be connected in a manner that allows proper functioning of the GFCI. A case-bycase analysis will be required.\nBACKUP GENERATORS Backup generators used for battery charging pose problems similar to using inverters and load centers. These small generators usually have ac outlets which may have the neutral and grounding conductors bonded to the generator frame. When the generator is connected to the system through a load center, to a standby inverter with battery charger, or to an external battery charger, parallel ground paths are likely. These problems need to be addressed on a case-by-case basis. A PV system, in any operating mode (inverting or battery charging), must not have currents in the equipment-grounding conductors [250-6].\nSUGGESTED AC GROUNDING Auxiliary ac generators and inverters should be hard-wired to the ac-load center. Neither should have an internal bond between the neutral and grounding conductors. Neither should have any receptacle outlets that can be used when the\ngenerator or inverter is operated when disconnected from the load center. The single bond between the neutral and ground will be made in the load center. If receptacle outlets are desired on the generator or the inverter, they should be ground-fault-circuit-interrupting devices (GFCI). Section 250-32 of the NEC presents alternate methods of achieving a safe grounding system.\nGROUNDING ELECTRODE The dc system grounding electrode shall be common with, or bonded to, the acgrounding electrode (if any) [690-47, 250-C]. The system-grounding conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor shall be tied to the same grounding electrode or grounding electrode system. Even if the PV system is ungrounded (optional at less than 50 volts [typically 125% of Voc]), equipment-grounding conductors must be used and must be connected to a grounding electrode [250110]. Metal water pipes and other metallic structures as well as concrete encased electrodes are to be used in some circumstances [250-50]. When a grounding electrode is used, it shall be a corrosion resistant rod, a minimum of 5/8 inch (16mm) in diameter (1/2\" (13mm) if stainless steel)) with at least 8 feet (2.4m) driven into the soil at an angle no greater than 45 degrees from the vertical [25052]. Listed connectors must be used to connect the grounding conductor to the ground rod. A bare-metal well casing makes a good grounding electrode. It should be part of a grounding electrode system. The central pipe to the well should not be used for grounding, because it is sometimes removed for servicing. For maximum protection against lightning-induced surges, it is suggested that a grounding electrode system be used with at least two grounding electrodes bonded together. One electrode would be the main system grounding electrode as described above. The other would be a supplemental grounding electrode located as close to the PV array as practical. The module frames and array frames would be connected directly to this grounding electrode to provide as short a path as possible for lightning-induced surges to reach the earth. This electrode is usually bonded with a conductor to the main system grounding electrode [250-54]. The size of the bonding or jumper cable must be related to the ampacity of the overcurrent device protecting the PV source circuits. This bonding jumper is an auxiliary to the module frame grounding that is required to be grounded with an equipment-grounding conductor. NEC Table 250-122 gives the requirements. Equipment-grounding conductors are allowed to be smaller than circuit conductors when the circuit conductors become very large. Article 250 of the NEC elaborates on these requirements.\nDo not connect the negative current-carrying conductor to the grounding electrode, to the equipment-grounding conductor, or to the frame at the modules. There should be one and only one point in the system where the grounding electrode conductor is attached to the system-grounded conductor. See Figure 9 for clarification. The wire sizes shown are for illustration only and will vary depending on system size. Chapter 3 of the NEC specifies the ampacity of various types and sizes of conductors. As is common throughout the NEC, there are exceptions to this guidance. See NEC Section 250-32b.\nArray and Module Frames\nPV Disconnect\nTo Loads and Battery Grounded Conductor\nGrounding Electrode Conductors\nEquipment Grounding Conductor\nBonding Cable Grounding Electrode (Frame)\nGrounding Electrode (System)\nFigure 9. Example Grounding Electrode System\nConductor Ampacity NEC Tables 310-16 and 310-17 give the ampacity (current-carrying capacity in amps) of various sized conductors at temperatures of 30\u00b0C (86\u00b0F). There are many adjustments that must be made to these numbers before a conductor size can be selected. The installation method must be considered. Are the conductors in free air [Table 310-17] or are they bundled together or placed in conduit [Table 310-16]? What is the ambient air temperature, if not 30\u00b0C (86\u00b0F)? How many current-carrying conductors are grouped together? These adjustments are made using factors presented in Chapter 3 of the NEC. SUGGESTED PRACTICES\nAdditionally, most conductors used in electrical power systems are restricted from operating on a continuous basis at more than 80% of their rated ampacity [210-19, 215-2]. This 80% factor also applies to overcurrent devices and switchgear unless listed for operation at 100% of rating [21020]. PV conductors are also restricted by this factor (0.8) [690-8(b)]. Conductors carrying PV module currents are further restricted by an additional derating factor of 80% because of the manner in which PV modules generate electrical energy in response to sunlight [690-8(a)]. It should be noted that these various ampacity adjustment factors may be applied to the basic conductor ampacities (e.g. multiply them by 0.80) or they may be applied to the anticipated current in the circuit (e.g. multiply the current by 1.25, the reciprocal of 0.8). Photovoltaic modules are limited in their ability to deliver current. The short-circuit current capability of a module is nominally 10 to 15% higher than the operating current. Normal, daily values of solar irradiance may exceed the standard test condition of 1000W/m2. These increased currents are considered by using the 1.25 adjustment in the ampacity calculations. Another problem for PV systems is that the conductors may operate at temperatures as high as 65-75\u00b0C when the modules are mounted close to a structure, there are no winds, and the ambient temperatures are high. Temperatures in module junction boxes frequently occur within this range. This will require that the ampacity of the conductors be derated or corrected with factors given in NEC Table 310-16 or 310-17. For example, a 10 AWG USE-2/RHW-2 single-conductor cable used for module interconnections in conduit has a 90\u00b0C insulation and an ampacity of 40 amps in an ambient temperature of 26-30\u00b0C. When it is used in ambient temperatures of 6170\u00b0C, the ampacity of this cable is reduced to 23.2 amps. It should be noted that the ampacity values associated with conductors having 90\u00b0C insulation can only be used if the terminals of the module and connected overcurrent devices are rated at 90\u00b0C [110-14(c)]. If the terminals are rated at only 75\u00b0C, then the ampacity values associated with 75\u00b0C insulation must be used, even when conductors with 90\u00b0C insulation are being used. Of course, if the 90\u00b0C insulation wire is used, the temperature derating may start with the 90\u00b0C ampacity values. The ampacity of conductors in PV source circuits shall be at least 125% of the rated module or parallel-connected modules short-circuit current [690-8]. The ampacity of the PV-output circuit conductors shall be at least 125% of the short-circuit output current [690-8a]. The ampacity of conductors to and from an inverter or power conditioning system shall be 125% of the rated operating current for that device [690-8a]. In a similar manner, other conductors in the system should have an ampacity of 125% of the rated operating current to allow for long duration operation at full power [215-2]. These NEC requirements are to ensure that the connected overcurrent devices or panelboards operate at no more than 80% of their ampacity. Operation when snow or cloud enhancement increases the PV output above normal may require additional ampacity. Daily expected values of solar irradiance will exceed the standard test condition of 1000W/m2 at many locations.\nA 1989 revision to the UL Standard 1703 for PV modules requires that module installation instructions include an additional 25% of the 25\u00b0C ratings for short-circuit current and opencircuit voltage to allow for expected daily peak irradiance and colder temperatures. This 1.25 factor, while still in UL Standard 1703, is also now contained in Section 690-8(a) of the NEC as mentioned above. There are only two 1.25 factors applied to PV module currents and the combined factor is 1.56 (1.25x1.25). Correct design practices require correctly determining wire size and the rating of overcurrent devices on PV source and output circuits. However, the rating of the overcurrent device should always be less than, or equal to, the ampacity of the cable. The NEC makes only infrequent exceptions to this rule. [240-3]. The ampacity of conductors and the sizing of overcurrent devices is an area that demands careful attention by the PV system designer/installer. Temperatures and wiring methods must be addressed for each site. Start with the 125% of Isc value to comply with the UL requirements [now in Section 690-8(a)]. Then use an additional 125% for code compliance. Finally, derate the cable ampacity for temperature. See Appendix E for additional examples. Overcurrent devices may have terminals rated for connection to 60\u00b0C conductors necessitating a reduction in the cable ampacity when using 75\u00b0C or 90\u00b0C conductors. When the battery bank is tapped to provide multiple voltages (i.e., 12 and 24 volts from a 24-volt battery bank), the common negative conductor will carry the sum of all of the simultaneous load currents. The negative conductor must have an ampacity at least equal to the sum of all the amp ratings of the overcurrent devices protecting the positive conductors or have an ampacity equal to the sum of the ampacities of the positive conductors [690-8(c)]. The NEC does not allow paralleling conductors for added ampacity, except that cables 1/0 AWG or larger may be paralleled under certain conditions [310-4]. DC-rated switchgear, overcurrent devices, and conductors cost significantly more when rated to carry more than 100 amps. It is suggested that large PV arrays be broken down into subarrays, each having a short-circuit output of less than 64 amps. This will allow use of 100-amp-rated equipment (156% of 64 amps) on each source circuit.\nSTAND-ALONE SYSTEMS\u2014INVERTERS In stand-alone systems, inverters are used to change the direct current (dc) from a battery bank to 120-volt or 240-volt, 60-Hertz (Hz) alternating current (ac). The conductors between the inverter and the battery must have properly rated overcurrent protection and disconnect mechanisms [240, 690-8, 690-9]. These inverters frequently have short-duration (seconds) surge capabilities that are four to six times the rated output. For example, a 2,500-watt inverter might be required to surge to 10,000 volt-amps for 5 seconds when a motor load must be started. The NEC requires the ampacity of the conductors between the battery and the inverter to be sized by the rated 2,500-watt continuous output of the inverter. For example, in a 24-volt system, a 2,500-watt inverter would draw 134 amps at full load (85% efficiency at 22 volts) and 420 amps for motor-starting surges. The ampacity of the conductors between the battery must be 125% of the 134 amps or 167 amps. SUGGESTED PRACTICES\nTo minimize steady-state voltage drops, account for surge-induced voltage drops, and to increase system efficiency, some well-designed systems have conductors that are larger than required by the NEC. When the current-carrying conductors are oversized, the equipment-grounding conductor must also be oversized proportionately [250-122]. See Appendix F for additional considerations on conductor ampacity.\nOvercurrent Protection The NEC requires that every ungrounded conductor be protected by an overcurrent device [24020]. In a PV system with multiple sources of power (PV modules, batteries, battery chargers, generators, power conditioning systems, etc.), the overcurrent device must protect the conductor from overcurrent from any source connected to that conductor [690-9]. Blocking diodes, charge controllers, and inverters are not considered as overcurrent devices and must be considered as zero-resistance wires when assessing overcurrent sources [690-9 FPN]. If the PV system is directly connected to the load without battery storage or other source of power, then no overcurrent protection is required if the conductors are sized at 156% of the short-circuit current [690-8b-Ex]. When circuits are opened in dc systems, arcs are sustained much longer than they are in ac systems. This presents additional burdens on overcurrent-protection devices rated for dc operation. Such devices must carry the rated load current and sense overcurrent situations as well as be able to safely interrupt dc currents. AC overcurrent devices have the same requirements, but the interrupt function is considerably easier.\nAMPERE RATING The PV source circuits shall have overcurrent devices rated at least 156% (1.25 x 1.25) of the parallel module short-circuit current. The PV-output circuit overcurrent devices shall be rated at least 156% of the short-circuit PV currents [690-8]. Time-delay fuses or circuit breakers would minimize nuisance tripping or blowing. In all cases, dc-rated devices having the appropriate dc-voltage rating must be used. All ungrounded conductors from the PV array shall be protected with overcurrent devices [Article 240, Diagram 690-1]. Grounded conductors (not shown in Diagram 690-1) must not have overcurrent devices since the independent opening of such a device might unground the system. Since PV module outputs are current limited, these overcurrent devices are actually protecting the array wiring from backfeed from parallel-connected modules, the battery, or the inverter.\nBecause the conductors and overcurrent devices are sized to deal with 156% of the short-circuit current for that particular PV circuit, overcurrents from those modules or PV sources, which are limited to the short-circuit current, cannot trip the overcurrent device in this circuit. The overcurrent devices in these circuits protect the conductors from overcurrents from parallel connected sets of modules or overcurrents from the battery bank. In stand-alone systems or grid-connected systems, these array overcurrent devices protect the array wiring from overcurrents from parallel strings of modules, the battery, or from the generator or ac utility power. Often, PV modules or series strings of modules are connected in parallel. As the conductor size used in the array wiring increases to accommodate the higher short-circuit currents of paralleled modules, each conductor size must be protected by an appropriately sized overcurrent device. These devices must be placed nearest all sources of potential overcurrent for that conductor [240-21]. Figure 10 shows an example of array conductor overcurrent protection for a medium-size array broken into subarrays. The cable sizes and types shown are examples only. The actual sizes will depend on the ampacity needed. Either fuses or circuit breakers are acceptable for overcurrent devices provided they are rated for their intended uses\u2014i.e., they have dc ratings when used in dc circuits, the ampacity is correct, and they can interrupt the necessary currents when short circuits occur [240 E, F, G]. Figure 11 shows dc-rated, UL-Listed circuit breakers being used in a PV power center for overcurrent protection and disconnects. The circuit breakers in this system are manufactured by Heinemann (Appendix A). The NEC allows the use of listed (recognized) supplemental overcurrent devices only for PV source circuit protection. Some overcurrent devices rated at less than 100 amps may have terminals that are rated for use with 60\u00b0C conductors. The ampacity calculations of the connected cables may have to be adjusted.\nTESTING AND APPROVAL The NEC requires that listed devices be used for overcurrent protection. A listed device by UL or other approved testing laboratory is tested against an appropriate UL standard. A recognized device is tested by UL or other approved testing laboratory to standards established by the device manufacturer. In most cases, the standards established by the manufacturer are less rigorous than those established by UL. Few inspectors will accept recognized devices, particularly where they are required for overcurrent protection. Recognized devices are generally intended for use in a factory assembly or equipment that will be listed in its entirety.\nDISCONNECT PANEL SUB ARRAY 340 W [email protected] 10A 44 V OC 12A SC\n10 AWG USE-2 Listed J-Box & Splice\n10-2 W/G UF 20 AMP CB\n6 AWG XHHW-2\nSUB ARRAY 340 W [email protected] 10A 44 V OC 12A SC\nListed J-Box & Splice\nTO CHARGE CONTROLLER\nGROUND Listed J-Box & Splice\nOPTIONAL DISCONNECT OVERCURRENT REQUIRED\n* Overcurrent protection normally required for each series string of modules\nTypical Array Conductor Overcurrent Protection (with Optional Subarray Disconnects)\nListed Branch-Circuit Rated Breakers\nSince PV systems may have transients\u2014lightning and motor starting as well as others\u2014inverse-time circuit breakers (the standard type) or time-delay fuses should be used in most cases. In circuits where no transients are anticipated, fastacting fuses can be used. They should be used if relays and other switchgear in dc systems are to be protected. Time-delay fuses that can also respond very quickly to short-circuit currents may also be used for system protection.\nBRANCH CIRCUITS DC branch circuits in stand-alone systems start at the battery and go to the receptacles supplying the dc loads or to the dc loads that are hard wired, such as inverters. In direct-connected systems (no battery), the PV output circuits go to the power controller or master power switch and a branch circuit goes from this location to the load. In utility-intertie systems, the circuit between the inverter and the ac-load center may be considered a feeder circuit. Fuses used to protect dc or ac branch (load) and feeder circuits must be listed for that use. They must also be of different sizes and markings for each amperage and voltage group to prevent unintentional interchange [240F]. These particular requirements eliminate the use of glass fuses and plastic automotive fuses as branch-circuit overcurrent devices because they are neither tested nor rated for this application. DC-rated fuses that meet the requirements of the NEC are becoming more prevalent. Figure 12 shows listed, dc-rated, time-delay fuses on the left that are acceptable for branch circuit use, which would include the battery fuse. Acceptable dc-rated, listed fast-acting supplementary fuses are shown on the right and can be used in the PV source circuits. The fuses shown are made by Littelfuse (Appendix A) and others, and the fuse holders are made by Marathon (Appendix A). Other manufacturers, such as Bussman and Ferraz, also have listed dc ratings on the types of fuses that are needed in PV systems.\nFigure 12. SUGGESTED PRACTICES\nListed Branch Circuit and Supplemental Fuses 29\nAutomotive fuses have no dc rating by the fuse industry or the testing laboratories and should not be used in PV systems. When rated by the manufacturer, they have only a 32-volt maximum rating, which is less than the open-circuit voltage from a 24-volt PV array. Furthermore, these fuses have no rating for interrupt current, nor are they generally marked with all of the information required for branch-circuit fuses. They are not considered supplemental fuses under the UL listing or component recognition programs. Figure 13 shows unacceptable automotive fuses on the left and listed ac supplemental fuses on the right. Unfortunately, even the supplemental fuses are intended for ac use and frequently have no dc ratings.\nFigure 13. Unacceptable Fuses (left) and Acceptable Fuses (right) when DC-rated Circuit breakers also have specific requirements when used in branch circuits, but they are generally available with the needed dc ratings [240 G]. Figure 14 shows examples of dc-rated, UL-Recognized circuit breakers (supplemental) on the left. When listed, they may be used in the PV source circuits for disconnects and overcurrent protection, but most are only recognized devices and may not be allowed by the inspector. The larger units are dc-rated, listed branch-circuit rated circuit breakers that can be used in dc-load centers for branch-circuit protection. The breakers shown are produced by Square D and Heinemann. Airpax also produces dc listed circuit breakers, and Potter Brumfield and others produce dcrated, UL-Recognized, supplemental breakers.\nUL-Recognized and Listed Circuit Breakers\nTo provide maximum protection and performance (lowest voltage drop) on branch circuits (particularly on 12 and 24-volt systems), the ampacity of the conductors might be increased, but the rating of the overcurrent devices protecting that cable should be as low as possible consistent with load currents. A general formula for cable ampacity and overcurrent device rating is 100% of the noncontinuous loads and 125% of the continuous loads anticipated [215-2]. AMPERES INTERRUPTING RATING (AIR)\u2014SHORT-CIRCUIT CONDITIONS Overcurrent devices\u2014both fuses and circuit breakers\u2014must be able to safely open circuits with short-circuit currents flowing in them. Since PV arrays are inherently current limited, high short-circuit currents from the PV array are normally not a problem when the conductors are sized as outlined above. In standalone systems with storage batteries, however, the short-circuit condition is very severe. A single 220 amp-hour, 6-volt, deep-discharge, lead-acid battery may produce short-circuit currents as high as 8,000 amps for a fraction of a second and as much as 6,000 amps for a few seconds in a direct terminal-to-terminal short circuit. Such high currents can generate excessive thermal and magnetic forces that can cause an underrated overcurrent device to burn or blow apart. Two paralleled batteries could generate nearly twice as much current, and larger capacity batteries would be able to deliver proportionately more current under a short-circuit condition. In dc systems, particularly stand-alone systems with batteries, the interrupt capability of every overcurrent device is important. This interrupt capability is specified as Amperes Interrupting Rating (AIR) and sometimes Amperes Interrupting Capability (AIC).\nMost dc-rated, listed, branch circuit breakers that can be used in PV systems have an AIR of 5,000 amps. However, Heinemann Electric and AirPax make numerous circuit breakers with AIRs of 25,000 amps (Appendix A). Some dc-rated, ULRecognized supplemental circuit breakers have an AIR of only 3,000 amps. Listed, dc-rated class-type fuses normally have an AIR of up to 20,000 amps if they are of the current-limiting variety. Fuses or circuit breakers shall never be paralleled or ganged to increase currentcarrying capability unless done so by the factory and listed for such use [240-8].\nFUSING OF PV SOURCE CIRCUITS The NEC allows supplementary fuses to be used in PV source circuits [690-9(c)]. A supplementary fuse is one that is designed for use inside a piece of listed equipment. These fuses supplement the main branch-circuit fuse and do not have to comply with all of the requirements of branch fuses. They shall, however, be dc rated, listed, and able to handle the short-circuit currents they may be subjected to [690-9d]. Unfortunately, many supplemental fuses are not dc rated, and if they are, the AIR (when available) is usually less than 5,000 amps. The use of ac-onlyrated supplementary fuses is not recommended for the dc circuits of PV systems [110-3(b)].\nCURRENT-LIMITING FUSES\u2014STAND-ALONE SYSTEMS A current-limiting fuse must be used in each ungrounded conductor from the battery to limit the current that a battery bank can supply to a short-circuit and to reduce the short-circuit currents to levels that are within the capabilities of downstream equipment [690-71(c)]. These fuses are available with UL ratings of 125, 300, and 600 volts dc, currents of 0.1 to 600 amps, and a dc AIR of 20,000 amps. They are classified as RK5 or RK1 current-limiting fuses and should be mounted in Class-R rejecting fuse holders or dc-rated, fused disconnects. Class J or T fuses with dc ratings might also be used. For reasons mentioned previously, time-delay fuses should be specified, although some designers are getting good results with Class T fast-acting fuses. One of these fuses and the associated disconnect switch should be used in each bank of batteries with a paralleled amphour capacity up to 1,000 amp-hours. Batteries with single cell amp-hour capacities higher than 1,000 amp-hours will require special design considerations, because these batteries may be able to generate short-circuit currents in excess of the 20,000 AIR rating of the current-limiting fuses. When calculating short-circuit currents, the resistances of all connections, terminals, wire, fuse holders, circuit breakers, and switches must be considered. These resistances serve to reduce the magnitude of the available short-circuit currents at any particular point. The suggestion of one fuse per 1,000 amp-hours of battery size is only a general estimate, and the calculations are site specific. The listed branch-circuit fuses shown in Figure 12 are current limiting.\nFor systems less than 65 volts (open circuit), Heinemann Electric 25,000 AIR circuit breakers may be used (Appendix A). These circuit breakers are not current limiting, even with the high interrupt rating, so they cannot be used to protect other types of fuses or circuit breakers. An appropriate use would be in the conductor between the battery bank and the inverter. This single device would minimize voltage drop and provide the necessary disconnect and overcurrent features. When high AIC circuit breakers are used throughout a PV system,. there may be NO requirement for a current-limiting fuse. The equipment and conductors must be braced for the available short-circuit current, or current-limiting devices must be used.\nCURRENT-LIMITING FUSES\u2014GRID-CONNECTED SYSTEMS Normal electrical installation practice requires that utility service entrance equipment have fault-current protection devices that can interrupt the available short-circuit currents [110-9]. This requirement applies to the utility side of any power conditioning system in a PV installation. If the service is capable of delivering fault currents in excess of the AIR rating of the overcurrent devices used to connect the inverter to the system, then current-limiting overcurrent devices must be used [110-9]. The equipment and conductors must be braced for the available short-circuit current, or current-limiting devices must be used.\nFUSE SERVICING Whenever a fuse is used as an overcurrent device and is accessible to unqualified persons, it must be installed in such a manner that all power can be removed from both ends of the fuse for servicing. It is not sufficient to reduce the current to zero before changing the fuse. There must be no voltage present on either end of the fuse prior to service. This may require the addition of switches on both sides of the fuse location\u2014a complication that increases the voltage drop and reduces the reliability of the system [690-16]. Because of this requirement, the use of a fusible pullout-style disconnect or circuit breaker is recommended. For the charging and dc-load circuits, it is recommended that a current-limiting fuse be used at the battery with a switch located between the battery and the current-limiting fuse. Circuit breakers can then be used for all other overcurrent devices in circuits toward the PV module where the available fault currents do not exceed their AIR or where they are protected by the current-limiting fuse. Ungrounded 12 or 24-volt systems require an overcurrent device in both of the ungrounded conductors of each circuit. Since an equipment-grounding system is\nrequired on all systems, costs may be reduced by grounding the system and using overcurrent devices only in the remaining ungrounded conductors.\nDisconnecting Means There are many considerations in configuring the disconnect switches for a PV system. The National Electrical Code deals with safety first and other requirements last\u2014if at all. The PV designer should also consider equipment damage from over voltage, performance options, equipment limitations, and cost. A photovoltaic system is a power generation system, and a specific minimum number of disconnects are necessary to deal with that power. Untrained personnel will be operating the systems; therefore, the disconnect system must be designed to provide safe, reliable, and understandable operation. Disconnects may range from nonexistent in a self-contained PV-powered light for a sidewalk to those found in the space-shuttle-like control room in a large, multi-megawatt, utility-tied PV power station. Generally, local inspectors will not require disconnects on totally enclosed, selfcontained PV systems like a PV-powered, solar, hot-water circulating system. This would be particularly true if the entire assembly were listed as a unit and there were no external contacts or user serviceable parts. However, the situation changes as the complexity of the device increases and separate modules, batteries, and charge controllers having external contacts are wired together and possibly operated and serviced by unqualified personnel.\nPHOTOVOLTAIC ARRAY DISCONNECTS Article 690 requires all current-carrying conductors from the PV power source or other power source to have disconnect provisions. This includes the grounded conductor, if any [690-C]. Ungrounded conductors must have a switch or circuit breaker disconnect [690-13, -15, -17]. Grounded conductors which normally remain connected at all times may have a bolted disconnect (terminal or lug) that can be used for service operations and for meeting the NEC requirements. Grounded conductors of faulted source circuits in roof-mounted dc PV arrays on dwellings are allowed to be automatically interrupted as part of ground-fault protection requirements in 690-5. In an ungrounded 12- or 24-volt PV system, both positive and negative conductors must be switched, since both are ungrounded. Since all systems must have an equipment-grounding system, costs may be reduced and performance improved by grounding 12- or 24-volt systems and using one-pole disconnects on the remaining ungrounded conductor.\nEQUIPMENT DISCONNECTS Each piece of equipment in the PV system shall have disconnect switches to disconnect it from all sources of power. The disconnects shall be circuit breakers or switches and shall comply with all of the provisions of Section 690-17. DCrated switches are expensive; therefore, the ready availability of moderately priced dc-rated circuit breakers with ratings up to 125 volts and 110 amps would seem to encourage their use in all 12-, 24-, and 48-volt systems. When properly located and used within their approved ratings, circuit breakers can serve as both the disconnect and overcurrent device. In simple systems, one switch or circuit breaker disconnecting the PV array and another disconnecting the battery may be all that is required. A 2,000-watt inverter on a 12-volt system can draw more than 235 amps at full load. Disconnect switches must be rated to carry this load and have appropriate interrupt ratings. Again, a dc-rated, listed circuit breaker may prove less costly and more compact than a switch and fuse with the same ratings.\nBATTERY DISCONNECT When the battery is disconnected from the stand-alone system, either manually or through the action of a fuse or circuit breaker, care should be taken that the PV system not be allowed to remain connected to the load. Small loads will allow the PV array voltage to increase from the normal battery charging levels to the opencircuit voltage, which will shorten lamp life and possibly damage electronic components. This potential problem can be avoided by using ganged multipole circuit breakers or ganged fused disconnects as shown in Figure 15. This figure shows two ways of making the connection. Separate circuits, including disconnects and fuses between the charge controller and the battery and the battery and the load, as shown in Figure 16, may be used if it is desired to operate the loads without the PV array being connected. If the design requires that the entire system be shut down with a minimum number of switch actions, the switches and circuit breakers could be ganged multipole units.\n+ PV MODULE(S)\nL O A D S\n+ PV Modules\nLOADS NOTES: CC\nCHARGE CONTROLLER Grounded Systems Short-circuit currents are less than 1,000 amps.

Most charge controllers do not respond well to being connected to the PV array and not being connected to the battery. The sensed battery voltage (or lack thereof) would tend to rapidly cycle between the array open-circuit voltage and zero as the controller tried to regulate the nonexistent charge process. This problem will be particularly acute in selfcontained charge controllers with no external battery sensing. The use of charge controllers listed to UL Standard 1741 will minimize this problem. Again, the multipole switch or circuit breaker can be used to disconnect not only the battery from the charge controller, but the charge controller from the array. Probably the safest method for self-contained charge controllers is to have the PV disconnect switch disconnect both the input and the output of the charge controller from the system. Larger systems with separate charge control electronics and switching elements will require a case-by-case analysis\u2014at least until the controller manufacturers standardize their products. Figure 17 shows two methods of disconnecting the charge controller.\nPV Disconnect Switch\nTo Battery and Loads\nMain System Disconnect\nNote: Grounded System\nFuse Service Disconnects\nCharge Controller Disconnects\nNON-GROUNDED SYSTEMS Systems that do not have one of the current-carrying conductors grounded must have disconnects and overcurrent devices in all of the ungrounded conductors. This means two-pole devices for the PV, battery, and inverter disconnects and overcurrent devices. The additional cost is considerable.\nMULTIPLE POWER SOURCES When multiple sources of power are involved, the disconnect switches shall be grouped and identified [230-72, 690-13]. No more than six motions of the hand will be required to operate all of the disconnect switches required to remove all power from the system [230-71]. These power sources include PV output, the battery system, any generator, and any other source of power. Multipole disconnects or handle ties should be used to keep the number of motions of the hand to six or fewer.\nPanelboards, Enclosures, and Boxes Disconnect and overcurrent devices shall be mounted in listed enclosures, panelboards, or boxes [240-30]. Wiring between these enclosures must use a NEC -approved method [110-8]. Appropriate cable clamps, strain-relief methods, or conduit shall be used. All openings not used shall be closed with the same or similar material to that of the enclosure [370-18]. Metal enclosures must be bonded to the equipment-grounding conductor [370-4]. The use of wood or other combustible materials is discouraged. Conductors from different systems such as utility power, gas generator, hydro, or wind shall not be placed in the same enclosure, box, conduit, etc., as PV source conductors unless the enclosure is partitioned [690-4b]. This requirement stems from the need to keep \"always live\" PV source conductors separate from those that can be turned off. When designing a PV distribution system or panel board, a listed NEMA type box and listed disconnect devices and overcurrent devices should be used. The requirements for the internal configuration of these devices are established by NEC Articles 370, 373, and 384 and must be followed. Dead front-panelboards with no exposed current-carrying conductors, terminals, or contacts are generally required. Underwriters Laboratories also establishes the standards for the internal construction of panelboards and enclosures.\nBatteries In general, NEC Articles 480 and 690-71, 72, 73 should be followed for installations having storage batteries. Battery storage in PV systems poses several safety hazards: \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nHydrogen gas generation from charging batteries High short-circuit current Acid or caustic electrolyte Electric shock potential\nHYDROGEN GAS When flooded, non-sealed, lead-acid batteries are charged at high rates, or when the terminal voltage reaches 2.3 - 2.4 volts per cell, the batteries produce hydrogen gas. Even sealed batteries may vent hydrogen gas under certain conditions. This gas, if confined and not properly vented, poses an explosive hazard. The amount of gas generated is a function of the battery temperature, the voltage, the charging current, and the battery-bank size. Hydrogen is a light, small-molecule gas that is easily dissipated and is very difficult to contain. Small battery banks (i.e., up to 20, 220-amp-hour, 6-volt batteries) placed in a large room or a well-ventilated (drafty) area may not pose a significant hazard. Larger numbers of batteries in smaller or tightly enclosed areas require venting. Venting manifolds attached to each cell and routed to an exterior location are not recommended because flames in one section of the manifold may be easily transmitted to other areas in the system. The instructions provided by the battery manufacturer should be followed. Closed battery boxes with vents to outside-the-house air may pose problems unless carefully designed. Wind may force hydrogen back down the vent. A catalytic recombiner cap (Hydrocap\u00ae Appendix A) may be attached to each cell to recombine some of the evolved hydrogen and oxygen to produce water. If these combiner caps are used, they will require occasional maintenance. It is rarely necessary to use power venting [NEC Handbook 480-8]. Flame arrestors are required by NEC Section 480-9, and battery manufacturers can provide special vent caps with flame-arresting properties. Certain charge controllers are designed to minimize the generation of hydrogen gas, but lead-acid batteries need some overcharging to fully charge the cells. This produces gassing that should be dissipated. In no case should charge controllers, switches, relays, or other devices capable of producing an electric spark be mounted in a battery enclosure or directly over a battery bank. Care must be exercised when routing conduit from a sealed battery box to a disconnect. Hydrogen gas may travel in the conduit to the arcing contacts of the switch. It is suggested that any conduit openings in battery boxes be made below the tops of the batteries, since hydrogen rises in air.\nBATTERY ROOMS AND CONTAINERS Battery systems are capable of generating thousands of amps of current when shorted. A short circuit in a conductor not protected by overcurrent devices can melt wrenches or other tools, battery terminals and cables, and spray molten metal around the room. Exposed battery terminals and cable connections must be protected. Live parts of batteries must be guarded [690-71]. This generally means\nthat the batteries should be accessible only to a qualified person. A locked room, battery box, or other container and some method to prevent access by the untrained person should reduce the hazards from short circuits and electric shock. The danger may be reduced if insulated caps or tape are placed on each terminal and an insulated wrench is used for servicing, but in these circumstances, corrosion may go unnoticed on the terminals. The NEC requires certain spacings around battery enclosures and boxes to allow for unrestricted servicing\u2014generally about three feet [110-16]. Batteries should not be installed in living areas, nor should they be installed below any enclosures, panelboards, or load centers [110-26]. One of the more suitable, readily available battery containers is the lockable, heavy-duty black polyethylene tool box. Such a box can hold up to four L-16 size batteries and is easily cut for ventilation holes in the lid and for conduit entrances.\nACID OR CAUSTIC ELECTROLYTE A thin film of electrolyte can accumulate on the tops of the battery and on nearby surfaces. This material can cause flesh burns. It is also a conductor and, in highvoltage battery banks, poses a shock hazard, as well as a potential ground-fault path. The film of electrolyte should be removed periodically with an appropriate neutralizing solution. For lead-acid batteries, a dilute solution of baking soda and water works well. Commercial neutralizers are available at auto-supply stores. Charge controllers are available that minimize the dispersion of the electrolyte and water usage because they minimize battery gassing. They do this by keeping the battery voltage from climbing into the vigorous gassing region where the high volume of gas causes electrolyte to mist out of the cells. A moderate amount of gassing is necessary for proper battery charging and de-stratification of the electrolyte in flooded cells. Battery servicing hazards can be minimized by using protective clothing including face masks, gloves, and rubber aprons. Self-contained eyewash stations and neutralizing solution would be beneficial additions to any battery room. Water should be used to wash acid or alkaline electrolyte from the skin and eyes. Anti-corrosion sprays and greases are available from automotive and battery supply stores and they generally reduce the need to service the battery bank. Hydrocap\u00ae Vents also reduce the need for servicing by reducing the need for watering.\nELECTRIC SHOCK POTENTIAL Storage batteries in dwellings must operate at less than 50 volts (48-volt nominal battery bank) unless live parts are protected during routine servicing [690-71b(2)].\nIt is recommended that live parts of any battery bank should be guarded [69071b(2)].\nGenerators Other electrical power generators such as wind, hydro, and gasoline/propane/diesel must comply with the requirements of the NEC. These requirements are specified in the following NEC articles: Article 230 Article 250 Article 445 Article 700 Article 701 Article 702 Article 705\nServices Grounding Generators Emergency Systems Legally Required Standby Systems Optional Standby Systems Interconnected Power Production Sources\nWhen multiple sources of ac power are to be connected to the PV system, they must be connected with an appropriately rated and approved transfer switch. AC generators frequently are rated to supply larger amounts of power than that supplied by the PV/battery/inverter. The transfer switches (external to the inverter or a relay built into listed inverters) must be able to safely accommodate either power source. Grounding, both equipment and system, must be carefully considered when a generator is connected to an existing system. There must be no currents flowing in the equipment-grounding conductor under any operating mode of the system. Bonds (connections) between the ac neutral and ground in generators are common and do cause problems. The circuit breakers or fuses that are built into the generator are not sufficient to provide NEC required protection for the conductors from the generator to the PV system. An external (branch circuit rated) overcurrent device (and possibly a disconnect) must be mounted close to the generator. The conductors from the generator to this overcurrent device must have an ampacity of 115% of the name plate current rating of the generator [445-5]. Figure 18 shows a typical oneline diagram for a system with a backup generator.\nAuxiliary Generator * *\nBattery * Grouped Disconnects Overcurrent protection may be required at any disconnect Labeling or marking may be required at disconnects\nFigure 18. Disconnects for Remotely Located Power Sources\nCharge Controllers A charge controller or self-regulating system shall be used in a stand-alone system with battery storage. The mechanism for adjusting state of charge shall be accessible only to qualified persons [690-72]. There are several charge controllers on the market that have been tested and listed by UL or other recognized testing organizations. Surface mounting of devices with external terminals readily accessible to the unqualified person will not be accepted by the inspection authority. These charge controllers should be mounted in a\nlisted enclosure with provisions for ventilation. Dead-front panels with no exposed contacts are generally required for safety. A typical charge controller such as shown in Figure 19 should be mounted in a listed enclosure so that none of the terminals are exposed. Enclosures containing charge controllers should have knockouts for cable entry and some method of attaching conduit where required. Internal space must be allocated to provide room for wire bending [373, 384]. Electrically, charge controllers should be designed with a \u201cstraight\u201d conductor between the negative input and output terminals. No shunts or other signal processing should be placed in that conductor. This design will allow the controller to be used in a grounded system with the grounded conductor running through the controller. The design of the charge controller must be reviewed to ensure proper system grounding.\nTypical Charge Controller\nInverters Inverters can have stand-alone, utility-interactive, or combined capabilities. The ac output wiring is not significantly different than the ac wiring in residential and commercial construction, and the same general requirements of the code apply. In the case of utility-interactive systems and combined systems, ac power may flow through circuits in both directions. This two-way current flow will normally require overcurrent devices at both ends of the circuit. The dc input wiring associated with stand-alone or hybrid inverters is the same as the wiring described for batteries. Most of the same rules apply; however, the calculation of the dc input\ncurrent needs special consideration since the NEC does not take into consideration some of the finer points required to achieve the utmost in reliability. Appendix F discusses these special requirements in greater detail. The dc input wiring associated with utility-interactive inverters is similar, in most cases, to the wiring in PV source and output circuits. Inverters with combined capabilities will have both types of dc wiring: connections to the batteries and connections to the PV modules.\nDistribution Systems The National Electrical Code has evolved to accommodate supplies of relatively cheap energy. As the Code was expanded to include other power systems such as PV, many sections were not modified to reflect the recent push toward more efficient use of electricity in the home. Standalone PV systems may be required to have dc services with 60- to 100-amp capacities to meet the Code [230-79]. DC receptacles and lighting circuits may have to be as numerous as their ac counterparts [220, 422]. In a small one- to four-module system on a remote cabin where no utility extensions or local grids are possible, these requirements may be excessive, since the power source may be able to supply only a few hundred watts of power. Changes in the 1999 NEC in Section 690-10 have clarified some of the code requirements for stand-alone PV systems. The local inspection authority has the final say on what is, or is not, required and what is, or is not, safe. Reasoned conversations may result in a liberal interpretation of the Code. For a new dwelling, it seems appropriate to install a complete ac electrical system as required by the NEC. This will meet the requirements of the inspection authority, the mortgage company, and the insurance industry. Then the PV system and its dc distribution system can be added. If an inverter is used, it can be connected to the ac service entrance. NEC Section 690 elaborates on these requirements and allowances. DC branch circuits and outlets can be added where needed, and everyone will be happy. If or when grid power becomes available, it can be integrated into the system with minimum difficulty. If the building is sold at a later date, it will comply with the NEC if it has to be inspected. The use of a listed dc power center will facilitate the installation and the inspection. Square D has received a direct current (dc), UL listing for its standard QO residential branch circuit breakers. They can be used up to 48 volts (125% PV open-circuit voltage) and 70 amps dc. This would limit their use to a 12-volt nominal system and a few 24-volt systems in hot climates [Table 690-7]. The AIR is 5,000 amps, so a current-limiting fuse (RK5 or RK1 type) must be used when they are connected on a battery system. The Square D QOM main breakers (used at the top of the load center) do not have this listing, so the load center must be obtained with main lugs and no main breakers (Appendix A).\nIn a small PV system (less than 5000 amps of available short-circuit current), a two-pole Square D QO breaker could be used as the PV disconnect (one pole) and the battery disconnect (one pole). Also, a fused disconnect or fusible pullout could be used in this configuration. This would give a little more flexibility since the fuses can have different current ratings. Figure 15 on page 36 shows both systems with only a single branch circuit. In a system with several dc branch circuits, the Square D QO load center can be used. A standard, off-the-shelf Square D QO residential load center without a main breaker can be used for a dc distribution panel in 12-volt dc systems and some hot-climate 24-volt systems. The main disconnect would have to be a \u201cback fed\u201d QO breaker, and it would have to be connected in one of the normal branch circuit locations. Back-fed circuit breakers must be identified for such use [690-64b(5)]. Since the load center has two separate circuits (one for each line), the bus bars will have to be tied together to use the entire load center. Figure 20 illustrates this use of the Square D load center. Another possibility is to use one of the line circuits to combine separate PV source circuits, then go out of the load center through a breaker acting as the PV disconnect switch to the charge controller. Finally, the conductors would have to be routed back to the other line circuit in the load center for branch-circuit distribution. Several options exist in using one and two-pole breakers for disconnects. Figure 21 presents an example.\nSquare D QO Load Center #6 AWG (added) T O\nBack Fed QO Breaker +\nFrom PV or Battery\n15 A Main Lugs\nB R A N C H C I R C U I T S\nJumper Added\n12-Volt DC Load Center\nNO MAIN BREAKER\nMAIN LUGS Insulated Terminal Block\nPV SUB ARRAY #1\nSee Note for breaker location\nNote: Breakers are shown on left and right sides for clarity. Actual breaker positions for inputs or outputs are on alternate sides of load center.\n+ BATTERY DISCONNECTS AND FUSES\n12-Volt DC Combining Box and Load Center\nINTERIOR WIRING AND RECEPTACLES Any dc interior wiring used in PV systems must comply with the NEC [300]. Nonmetallic sheathed cable (type NM - \"Romex\") may be used, and it must be installed in the same manner as cable for ac branch circuits [336, 690-31a]. The bare grounding conductor in such a cable must not be used to carry current and cannot be used as a common negative conductor for combination 12/24-volt systems [336-30(b)]. Exposed, single-conductor cables are not permitted\u2014they must be installed in conduit [300-3(a)]. Wires carrying the same current (i.e., positive and negative battery currents) must be installed in the same conduit or cable to prevent increased circuit inductances that would pose additional electrical stresses on disconnect and overcurrent devices [300-3(b)]. Equipment-grounding conductors for dc circuits only may be run apart from the current-carrying conductors [250-134(b) Ex2]. However, separating the equipment grounding conductor from the circuit conductors may increase the fault circuit time constant and impair the operation of overcurrent devices. The effects of transient pulses are also enhanced when equipment grounding conductors are separate. It is suggested that equipment-grounding conductors be run in the same conduit or cable as the circuit conductors. The receptacles used for dc must be different than those used for any other service in the system [210-7f, 551-20f]. The receptacles should have a rating of not less than 15 amps and must be of the three-prong grounding type [210-7a, 720-6]. Numerous different styles of listed receptacles are available that meet this requirement. These requirements can be met in most locations by using the threeconductor 15-, 20-, or 30-amp 240-volt NEMA style 6-15, 6-20, 6-30 receptacles for the 12-volt dc outlets. If 24-volt dc is also used, the NEMA 125-volt locking connectors, style L5-15 or L5-20, are commonly available. The NEMA FSL-1 is a locking 30-amp 28-volt dc connector, but its availability is limited. Figure 22 shows some of the available configurations. Cigarette lighter sockets and plugs frequently found on \u201cPV\u201d and \u201cRV\u201d appliances do not meet the requirements of the National Electrical Code and should not be used.\nFSL1-30P\nNEMA Plug Configurations\nIt is not permissible to use the third or grounding conductor of a three-conductor plug or receptacle to carry common negative return currents on a combined 12/24volt system. This terminal must be used for equipment grounding and may not carry current except in fault conditions [210-7]. A 30-amp fuse or circuit breaker protecting a branch circuit (with 10 AWG conductors) must use receptacles rated at 30 amps. Receptacles rated at 15 and 20 amps must not be used on this 30-amp circuit [Table 210-24].\nSMOKE DETECTORS Many building codes require that smoke and fire detectors be wired directly into the ac power wiring of the dwelling. With a system that has no inverter, two solutions might be offered to the inspector. The first is to use the 9-volt or other primary-cell, battery-powered detector. The second is to use a voltage regulator to drop the PV system voltage to the 9-volt or other level required by the detector. The regulator must be able to withstand the PV open-circuit voltage and supply the current required by the detector alarm. On inverter systems, the detector on some units may trigger the inverter into an \u201con\u201d state, unnecessarily wasting power. In other units, the alarm may not draw enough current to turn the inverter on and thereby produce a reduced volume alarm or, in some cases, no alarm at all. Small, dedicated inverters might be used, but this would waste power and decrease reliability when dc detectors are available. Many states require detectors to be connected to the power line and have a battery backup. Units satisfying this requirement might also be powered by dc from the PV system battery and by a primary cell.\nGROUND-FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTERS Some ac ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCI) do not operate reliably on the output of some non-sine-wave inverters. If the GFCI does not function when tested, it should be verified that the neutral (white-grounded) conductor of the inverter output is solidly grounded and bonded to the grounding (green or bare) conductor of the inverter in the required manner. If this bond is present and does not result in the GFCI testing properly, other options are possible. Changing the brand of GFCI may rectify the solution. A direct measurement of an intentional ground fault may indicate that slightly more than the 5 milliamp internal test current is required to trip the GFCI. The inspector may accept this. Some inverters will work with a ferro-resonant transformer to produce a wave form more satisfactory for use with GFCIs, but the no-load power consumption may be high\nenough to warrant a manual demand switch. A sine-wave inverter should be used to power those circuits requiring GFCI protection. The 1999 NEC added a Section 690-6(d) permitting (not requiring) the use of a device (undefined) on the ac branch circuit being fed by an ac PV module to detect ground-faults in the ac wiring. There are no commercially available devices as of early 2001 that can meet this permissive requirement. Standard 5-milliamp anti-shock receptacle GFCIs or 30-milliamp equipment protection circuit breakers should not be used for this application. They may be destroyed if used for this application\nINTERIOR SWITCHES Switches rated for ac only shall not be used in dc circuits [380-14]. AC-DC general-use snap switches are available by special order from most electrical supply houses, and they are similar in appearance to normal \u201cquiet switches\u201d [380-14(b)].\nNote: There have been some failures of dc-rated snap switches when used as PV array and battery disconnect switches. If these switches are used on 12- and 24volt systems and are not activated frequently, they may build up internal oxidation or corrosion and not function properly. Periodically activating the switches under load will keep them clean.\nMULTIWIRE BRANCH CIRCUITS Stand-alone PV and PV/Hybrid systems are frequently connected to a building/structure/house that has been previously completely wired for 120/240volts ac and has a standard service entrance and load center. These structures may employ one or more circuits that the National Electrical Code (NEC) defines as a multiwire branch circuit. See Section 100 in the NEC, \u201cBranch Circuit, Multiwire.\u201d These circuits take a three-conductor plus ground feeder from the 120/240-volt load center and run it some distance to a location in the structure where two separate 120-volt branch circuits are split out. Each branch circuit uses one of the 120-volt hot, ungrounded conductors from the 120/240-volt feeder and the common neutral conductor. See Figure 23. In a utility-connected system or a stand-alone system with a 120/240-volt stacked pair of inverters, where the 120/240-volt power consists of two 120-volt lines that are 180 degrees out of phase, the currents in the common neutral in the multiwire branch circuit are limited to the difference currents from any unbalanced load. If\nthe loads on each of the separate branch circuits were equal, then the currents in the common neutral would be zero. A neutral conductor overload may arise when a single 120-volt inverter is tied to both of the hot input conductors on the 120/240-volt load center as shown in Figure 23. This is a common practice for stand-alone PV homes. At this point the two hot 120-volt conductors are being delivered voltage from the single 120-volt inverter and that voltage is in phase on both conductors. In multiwire branch circuits, the return currents from each of the separate branch circuits in the common neutral add together. A sketch of the multiwire branch circuit is presented in Figure 23. Each branch circuit is protected by a circuit breaker in the ungrounded conductor in the load center. The neutral conductor is usually the same size as the ungrounded conductors and can be overloaded with the in-phase return currents. The circuit breakers will pass current up to the ampacity of the protected conductors, but when both branch circuits are loaded at more than 50%, the unprotected, common neutral conductor is overloaded and may be carrying up to twice the currents that it was rated for. A definite fire and safety hazard exists. All existing stand-alone PV installations using single inverters tied to both ungrounded conductors at the service entrance should be examined for multiwire branch circuits. The NEC requires that multiwire branch circuits in some, but not all, cases use a two-pole circuit breaker so that both circuits are dead at the same time under fault conditions and for servicing. This two-pole, side-by-side circuit breaker rated at 15 or 20 amps may be one indication that multiwire branch circuits have been used. Common handle circuit breakers rated at 30 amps and higher are usually dedicated to 240-volt circuits for ranges, hot water heaters, dryers, and the like. Examination of the wiring in the load center may show a three-wire cable (14 or 12 AWG red, black, and white conductors) with bare ground leaving the load center. This may be connected to a multiwire branch circuit. The circuit breakers connected to this cable and the outputs of this cable should be traced to determine the presence or absence of a multiwire branch circuit. The following options are suggested for dealing with this problem: \u2022\nDisconnect or rewire the multiwire circuits as separate circuits (\u201chome runs\u201d) from the load center.\nConnect both \"hot\" (ungrounded) conductors of the multiwire branch circuit to a single circuit breaker rated for the ampacity of the neutral conductor.\nLimit the output of the inverter with a circuit breaker rated at the ampacity of the neutral conductor (usually 15 amps). Place a warning near this circuit breaker stating that the rating must not be increased.\nInstall a transformer to provide a 120/240-volt output from a 120volt inverter.\nInstall a stacked pair of inverters to provide 120/240V ac.\nIn systems where multiwire branch circuits are used with stacked (120/240-volt) inverters, a sign should be placed near the inverters warning that single inverter use (one inverter removed for repair and the system is rewired to accommodate all branch circuits) may cause overloaded circuits. The maximum current from the single inverter should be limited to the ampacity of the common neutral conductor. H 120 V N H 120 V Inverter\n120/240 V Load Center N\nN Overloaded Neutral\nDiagram of a Multiwire Branch Circuit\nIn all systems (multiwire or not), the neutral busbar of the load center must be rated at a higher current than the output of the inverter. In other words, do not connect an inverter with a 33-amp output to a load center rated at 20 or 30 amps. Additional information is found in the NEC in sections 100, 210-4, 240-20(b), and 300-13(b), and in the NEC Handbook. Section 690-10 provides requirements and allowances on connecting a single inverter to a code-compliant ac wiring system.\nAC PV Modules An AC PV module is a photovoltaic device that has an alternating current output (usually 120 volts at 60 Hz in the U.S.). It is listed (by UL) as a unified device and is actually a standard dc PV module with an attached (non-removable) utility-interactive inverter. The ac output is only available when the ac PV module is connected to a utility grid circuit where there is a stable 120 volts at 60 Hz present. With no utility power, there will be NO energy flow from the ac PV modules. A number of ac PV modules may be connected on the same circuit (according to ampacity limitations), but that circuit must be dedicated to the ac PV module(s) and must terminate in a dedicated circuit breaker. There are no external dc circuits in the ac PV module and none of the dc code requirements apply. Unlisted combinations of small listed inverters mated to listed dc PV modules do not quality as an ac PV module and will have to have all code-required dc switchgear, overcurrent, and ground-fault equipment added. AC PV modules shall be marked with the following: \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nNominal AC Voltage Nominal AC Frequency Maximum AC Power Maximum AC Current Maximum Overcurrent Device Rating for AC Module Protection [690-52]\nSystem Labels and Warnings PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER SOURCE A permanent label shall be applied near the PV disconnect switch that contains the following information: [690-53] \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nOperating Current (System maximum-power current) Operating Voltage (System maximum-power voltage) Maximum System Voltage Short-Circuit Current\nThis data will allow the inspector to verify proper conductor ampacity and overcurrent device rating. It will also allow the user to compare system performance with the specifications.\nMULTIPLE POWER SYSTEMS Systems with multiple sources of power such as PV, gas generator, wind, hydro, etc., shall have a permanent plaque or directory showing the interconnections [705-10]. Diagrams are not required, but may be useful and should be placed near the system disconnects.\nINTERACTIVE SYSTEM POINT OF INTERCONNECTION All interactive system(s) points of interconnection with other sources shall be marked at an accessible location at the disconnecting means as a power source with the maximum ac output operating current and the operating ac voltage [69054].\nSWITCH OR CIRCUIT BREAKER If a switch or circuit breaker has all of the terminals energized when in the open position, a label should be placed near it indicating: [690-17] WARNING - ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD - DO NOT TOUCH TERMINALS. TERMINALS ON BOTH THE LINE AND LOAD SIDES MAY BE ENERGIZED IN THE OPEN POSITION\nGENERAL Each piece of equipment that might be opened by unqualified persons should be marked with warning signs: WARNING - ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD - DANGEROUS VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS - NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE - CONTACT QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL FOR ASSISTANCE Each battery container, box, or room should also have warning signs: WARNING - ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD - DANGEROUS VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS - EXPLOSIVE GAS - NO SPARKS OR FLAMES - NO SMOKING - ACID BURNS - WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING WHEN SERVICING\nInspections Involving the inspector as early as possible in the planning stages of the system will begin a process that should provide the best chance of obtaining a safe, durable system. The following steps are suggested. \u2022 \u2022 \u2022 \u2022\nEstablish a working relationship with a local electrical contractor or electrician to determine the requirements for permits and inspections. Contact the inspector and review the system plans. Solicit advice and suggestions from the inspector. Obtain the necessary permits. Involve the inspector in the design and installation process. Provide information as needed. Have one-line diagrams and complete descriptions of all equipment available.\nInsurance Most insurance companies are not familiar with photovoltaic power systems. They are, however, willing to add the cost of the system to the homeowner's policy if they understand that it represents no additional liability risk. A system description may be required. Evidence that the array is firmly attached to the roof or ground is usually necessary. The system must be permitted and inspected if those requirements exist for other electrical power systems in the locale. Some companies will not insure homes that are not grid connected because there is no source of power for a high-volume water pump for fighting fires. In these instances, it may be necessary to install a fire-fighting system and water supply that meets their requirements. A high-volume dc pump and a pond might suffice. As with the electrical inspector, education and a full system description emphasizing the safety features and code compliance will go a long way toward obtaining appropriate insurance.\nAPPENDIX A Sources of Equipment Meeting the Requirements of The National Electrical Code A number of PV distributors and dealers are stocking the equipment needed to meet the NEC requirements. Some sources are presented here for specialized equipment, but this list is not intended to be all-inclusive or to promote any of the products.\nCONDUCTORS Standard multiconductor cable such as 10-2 with ground Nonmetallic Sheathed Cable (NM and NMC), Underground Feeder (UF), Service Entrance (SE), Underground Service Entrance (USE and USE-2), larger sizes (8 AWG) singleconductor cable, uninsulated grounding conductors, and numerous styles of building wire such as THHN can be obtained from electrical supply distributors and building supply stores.

This short discourse will address those concerns and highlight the unique characteristics of PV systems that dictate the requirements. The National Electrical Code (NEC) is written with the requirement that all equipment and installations are approved for safety by the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) to enforce the NEC requirements in a particular location. The AHJ readily admits to not having the resources to verify the safety of the required equipment and relies exclusively on the testing and listing of the equipment by independent testing laboratories such as Underwriters Laboratories (UL). The AHJ also relies on the installation requirements for field wiring specified in the NEC to ensure safe installations and use of the listed equipment. The standards published by UL and the material in the NEC are closely harmonized by engineers and technicians throughout the electrical equipment industry, the electrical construction trades, the national laboratories, the scientific community, and the electrical inspector associations. The UL Standards are technical in nature with very specific requirements on the construction and testing of equipment for safety. They in turn are coordinated with the construction standards published by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA). The NEC, however, is deliberately written in a manner to allow uniform application by electricians, electrical contractors, and electrical inspectors in the field. The use of listed equipment (by UL or other nationally recognized laboratory) ensures that the equipment meets well-established safety standards. The application of the requirements in the NEC ensures that the listed equipment is properly connected with field wiring and is used in a manner that will result in an essentially hazard-free system. The use of listed equipment and installing that equipment according to the requirements in the NEC will contribute greatly not only to safety, but also the durability, performance, and longevity of the system.\nUNSPECIFIED DETAILS The NEC does not present many highly detailed technical specifications. For example, the term \"rated output\" is used in several cases with respect to PV equipment. The conditions under which the rating is determined are not specified. The definitions of the rating conditions (such as Standard Test Conditions (STC) for PV modules) are made in the UL Standards that establish the rated output. This procedure is appropriate because of the NEC level of writing and the lack of appropriate test equipment available to the NEC user or inspector.\nNEC REQUIREMENTS BASED ON MODULE PERFORMANCE Voltage Section 690-7 of the NEC establishes a temperature-dependent voltage correction factor that is to be applied to the open-circuit voltage (Voc) in order to establish the system voltage. This factor on the open-circuit voltage is needed because, as the operating temperature of the module decreases, Voc increases. The rated Voc is measured at a temperature of 25\u00b0C and while the normal operating temperature is 40-50\u00b0C when ambient temperatures are around 20\u00b0C, there is nothing to prevent subzero ambient temperatures from yielding operating temperatures significantly below the 25\u00b0C standard test condition. A typical crystalline silicon module will have a voltage coefficient of 0.38%/\u00b0C. A system with a rated open-circuit voltage of 595 volts at 25\u00b0C might be exposed to ambient temperatures of -30\u00b0C. This voltage (595) could be handled by the common 600-volt rated conductors and switchgear. At dawn and dusk conditions, the module will be at the ambient temperature of -30\u00b0C, will not experience any significant heating, but can generate open-circuit voltages of 719 volts (595 x (1 + (25 + 30) x 0.0038)). This voltage substantially exceeds the capability of 600-volt rated conductors, fuses, switchgear, and other equipment. High wind speeds can also cause modules to operate at or near ambient temperatures, even in the presence of moderate levels of sunlight. The very real possibility of this type of condition substantiates the NEC requirement for the temperature dependent factor on the rated open-circuit voltage. Thin film PV technologies may have other voltage-temperature relationships, and the manufacturers of modules employing such technologies should be consulted for the appropriate data.\nCurrent NEC Section 690-8(a) requires that the rated (at STC) short-circuit current of the PV module be multiplied by 125% before any other factors, such as continuous current and conduit fill factors, are applied. This factor is to provide a safe margin for wire sizes and overcurrent devices when the irradiance exceeds the standard 1000 W/m2. Depending on season, local weather conditions, and atmospheric dust and humidity, irradiance exceeds 1000 W/m2 every day around solar noon. The time period can be as long as four hours with irradiance values approaching 1200 W/m2, again depending on the aforementioned conditions and the type of tracking being used. These daily irradiance values can increase short-circuit currents 20% over the 1000 W/m2 value. Since these increased currents can be present for three hours or more, they are considered continuous currents. By multiplying the short-circuit current by 125%, the PV output currents are adjusted in a manner that puts them on the same basis as other continuous currents in the NEC Enhanced irradiance due to reflective surfaces such as sand, snow, or white roofs, and even nearby bodies of water can increase short-circuit currents by substantial amounts and for significant periods of time. Cumulus clouds also can increase irradiance by as much as 50%. These transient factors are not considered continuous and are not addressed by either UL or the NEC Another factor that must be addressed is that PV modules typically operate at 30-40\u00b0C above the ambient temperatures when not exposed to cooling breezes. In crystalline silicon PV modules, the short-circuit current increases as the temperature increases. A typical factor might be 0.1%/\u00b0C. If the module operating temperature was 60\u00b0C (35\u00b0C over the STC of 25\u00b0C), the short-circuit current would be 3.5% greater than the rated value. PV modules have been measured operating over 75\u00b0C. The combination of increased operating temperatures, irradiances over 1000 W/m 2 around solar noon, and the possibility of enhanced irradiance certainly justify the NEC requirement [690-8(a)] of 125% on the rated short-circuit current.\nADDITIONAL NEC REQUIREMENTS The NEC requires that the continuous current of any circuit be multiplied by 125% before calculating the ampacity of any cable or the rating of any overcurrent device used in these circuits [690-8(b) and 240]. This factor is in addition to the required 125% discussed above and is needed to ensure that overcurrent devices and conductors are not operated above 80% of rating. Since short-circuit currents in excess of the rated value are possible from the discussion of the Section 690-8(a) requirements above, and these currents are SUGGESTED PRACTICES\nindependent of the requirements established by Section 690-8(b), the NEC dictates that both factors will be used at the same time. This yields a multiplier on short-circuit current of 1.56 (125% x 125%). The NEC also requires that the ampacity of conductors be derated for the operating temperature of the conductor. This is a requirement because the ampacity of cables is given for cables operating in an ambient temperature of 30\u00b0C. In PV systems, cables are operated in an outdoor environment and should be subjected at least to a temperature derating due to an ambient temperature of 40\u00b0C to 45\u00b0C. PV modules operate at high temperatures and, in some installations, may be over 75\u00b0C. Concentrating modules operate at even higher temperatures. The temperatures in module junction boxes approach these temperatures. Conductors in free air that lie against the back of these modules are also exposed to these temperatures. Temperatures this high require that the ampacity of cables be derated by factors of 0.33 to 0.58 depending on cable type, installation method (free air or conduit), and the temperature rating of the insulation [310-16,-17]. Cables in conduit where the conduit is exposed to the direct rays of the sun are also exposed to elevated operating temperatures. Cables with insulation rated at 60\u00b0C have no ampacity at all when operated in environments with ambient temperatures over 55\u00b0C. This precludes their use in most PV systems. Cables with 75\u00b0C insulation have no ampacity when operated in ambient temperatures above 70\u00b0C. Because PV modules may operate at temperatures in the 45-75\u00b0C range, it is strongly suggested that only cables with an insulation rated at 90\u00b0C be used.\nSUMMARY The conditions under which PV modules operate (high and low ambient temperatures, high and low winds, high and low levels of sunlight) and the electrical characteristics of those modules dictate that all of the requirements in the NEC be fully considered and applied. There appears to be little question that the temperature-dependent correction factor on voltage is necessary in any location where the ambient temperature drops below 25\u00b0C. Even though the PV system can provide little current under open-circuit voltage conditions, these high voltages can damage electronic equipment and stress conductors and other equipment by exceeding their voltage breakdown ratings. In ambient temperatures from 25 to 40\u00b0C and above, module short-circuit currents are increased at the same time conductors are being subjected to higher operating temperatures. Irradiance values over the standard rating condition may occur\nevery day. Therefore the NEC requirements for adjusting the short-circuit current are necessary to ensure a safe and long-lived system.\nAPPENDIX C Grid-Connected Systems Grid-connected systems present some unique problems for the PV designer and installer in meeting the NEC.\nINVERTERS Some of the grid-tied inverters that are available do not currently meet UL Standard 1741 for inverters. Some of the inverters cannot have both the dc PV circuits and the ac output circuits grounded without causing parallel ground current paths. Newer versions of these inverters may have solutions for this problem. Other inverters have the internal circuitry tied to the case and force the central grounding point to be at the inverter input terminals. In some installations, this design is not compatible with ground-fault equipment and does not provide the flexibility needed for maximum surge suppression.\nPV SOURCE-CIRCUIT CONDUCTORS Some older grid-tied inverters operate with PV arrays that are center tapped and have cold-temperature open-circuit voltages of \u00b1325 volts and above. The system voltage of 650 volts or greater exceeds the insulation rating of the commonly available 600-volt insulated conductors. Each disconnect and overcurrent device and the insulation of the wiring must have a voltage rating exceeding the system voltage rating. Type G and W cables are available with the higher voltage ratings, but are flexible cords and do not meet NEC requirements for fixed installations. Cables suitable for NEC installations requiring insulation greater than 600 volts are available (Appendix A). Other older inverters have been designed to operate on systems with open-circuit voltages exceeding \u00b1540 volts requiring conductors with 2000-volt or higher insulation. See Appendix D for a full discussion of this area.\nOVERCURRENT DEVICES When UL tests and lists fuses for dc operation, the voltage rating is frequently one-half the ac voltage rating. This results in a 600-volt ac fuse rated for 300-volt dc. Finding fuses with high enough dc ratings for grid systems operating at \u00b1300 volts (600-volt system voltage) and above will pose problems. There are a limited number of listed, dc-rated 600-volt fuses available. See Appendix A.\nAlthough not UL-Listed, Heinemann Electric Company (Appendix A) can series connect poles of dc-rated circuit breakers to obtain 750-volt ratings. Square D and others have similar products. Circuit breakers that are \u201cback fed\u201d for any application (but particularly for utility interactive inverter connection to the grid) must be identified (in the listing) for such use and must be fastened in place with a screw or other additional clamp [690-64b(5), 384-16(f)].\nDISCONNECTS In addition to the Heinemann circuit breaker mentioned above, manufacturers such as GE, Siemens, and Square D may certify their switches for higher voltage when the poles are connected in series.\nBLOCKING DIODES Blocking diodes are not required by the NEC and their use is rapidly declining. Blocking diodes are not overcurrent devices. They block reverse currents in direct-current circuits and help to control circulating ground-fault currents if used in both ends of high-voltage strings. Lightning induced surges are tough on diodes. If isolated case diodes are used, at least 3500 volts of insulation is provided between the active elements and the normally grounded heat sink. Choosing a peak reverse voltage as high as is available but at least twice the PV open-circuit voltage, will result in longer diode life. Substantial amounts of surge suppression will also improve diode longevity. Blocking diodes may not be substituted for the UL-1703 requirement for module protective fuses in each series-connected string of modules.\nSURGE SUPPRESSION Surge suppression is covered only lightly in the NEC because it affects performance more than safety and is mainly a utility problem at the transmission line level in ac systems [280]. PV arrays mounted in the open, on the tops of buildings, act like lightning rods. The PV designer and installer should provide appropriate means to deal with lightning-induced surges coming into the system. Array frame grounding conductors should be routed directly to supplemental ground rods located as near as possible to the arrays. Metal conduit will add inductance to the array-to-building conductors and slow down any induced surges as well as provide some electromagnetic shielding.\nMetal oxide varistors (MOV) commonly used as surge suppression devices on electronic equipment have several deficiencies. They draw a small amount of current continually. The clamping voltage lowers as they age and may reach the open-circuit voltage of the system. When they fail, they fail in the shorted mode, heat up, and frequently catch fire. In many installations, the MOVs are protected with fast acting fuses to prevent further damage when they fail, but this may limit their effectiveness as surge suppression devices. Other electronic devices are available that do not have these problems. Silicon Oxide surge arrestors do not draw current when they are off. They fail open circuited when overloaded and, while they may split open on overloads, they rarely catch fire. They are not normally protected by fuses and are rated for surge currents up to 100,000 amps. They are rated at voltages of 100 volts and higher and are available from electrical supply houses or Delta Lightning Arrestors, Inc. (Appendix A). Several companies specialize in lightning protection equipment, but much of it is for ac systems. Electronic product directories, such as the Electronic Engineers Master Catalog should be consulted.\nAPPENDIX D Cable and Device Ratings at High Voltages There is a concern in designing PV systems that have system open-circuit voltages above 600 volts. The concern has two main issues\u2014device ratings and NEC limitations.\nEQUIPMENT RATINGS Some utility-intertie inverters operate with a grounded, bipolar (three-wire) PV array. In a bipolar PV system, where each of the monopoles is operated in the 220-235-volt peak-power range, the open-circuit voltage can be anywhere from 290 to 380 volts, and above, depending on the module characteristics such as fill factor. Such a bipolar system can be described as a 350/700-volt system (for example) in the same manner that a 120/240-volt ac system is described. This method of describing the system voltage is consistent throughout the electrical codes used not only in residential and commercial power systems, but also in utility practice. In all systems, the voltage ratings of the cable, switchgear, and overcurrent devices are based on the higher number of the pair (i.e., 700 volts in a 350/700volt system). That is why 250-volt switchgear and overcurrent devices are used in 120/240-volt ac systems and 600-volt switchgear is used in systems such as the 277/480-volt ac system. Note that it is not the voltage to ground, but the higher line-to-line voltage that defines the equipment voltage requirements. The National Electrical Code (NEC) defines a nominal voltage for ac systems (120, 240, etc.) and acknowledges that some variation can be expected around that nominal voltage. Such a variation around a nominal voltage is not considered in dc PV systems, and the NEC requires that a temperature-related connection factor on the open-circuit array voltage must be used. The open-circuit voltage is defined at Standard Test Conditions (STC) because of the relationship between the UL Standards and the way the NEC is written. The NEC Handbook elaborates on the definition of \u201ccircuit voltage,\u201d but this definition may not apply to currentlimited dc systems. Section 690-7(a) of the NEC requires that the voltage used for establishing dc circuit requirements in PV systems be the computed open-circuit voltage for crystalline PV technologies. In new thin-film PV technologies, opencircuit voltages are determined from manufacturers\u2019 specifications for temperature coefficients. The 1999 NEC specifically defines the PV system voltage as the product of a temperature-dependent factor (that may reach 1.25 at \u201340\u00b0C) and the STC opencircuit voltage [690-7]. The systems voltage is also defined as the highest voltage between any two wires in a 3-wire (bipolar) PV system [690-2].\nThe comparison to ac systems can be carried too far; there are differences. For example, the typical wall switch in a 120/240-volt ac residential or commercial system is rated at only 120 volts, but such a switch in a 120/240-volt dc PV system would have to be rated at 240 volts. The inherent differences between a dc current source (PV modules) and a voltage source (ac grid) bear on this issue. Even the definitions of circuit voltage in the NEC and NEC Handbook refer to ac and dc systems, but do not take into account the design of the balance of systems required in current-limited PV systems. In a PV system, all wiring, disconnects, and overcurrent devices have current ratings that exceed the short-circuit currents by at least 25%. In the case of bolted faults or ground faults involving currents from the PV array, the overcurrent devices do not trip because they are rated to withstand continuous operation at levels above the fault levels. In an ac system, bolted faults and ground faults generally cause the overcurrent devices to trip or blow removing the source of voltage from the fault. Therefore, the faults that pose high-voltage problems in PV, dc systems cause the voltage to be removed in ac, grid-supply systems. For these reasons, a switch rated at 120 volts can be used in an ac system with voltages up to 240 volts, but in a dc, PV system, the switch would have to be rated at 240 volts. Another consideration that we are dealing with is the analogy of dc supply circuit and ac load circuits. An analysis of ac supply circuits would be similar to dc supply circuits. Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standard 1703 requires that manufacturers of modules listed to the standard include, in the installation instructions, a statement that the open-circuit voltage should be multiplied by 125% (crystalline cells), further increasing the voltage requirement of the Balance of Systems (BOS) equipment. This requirement is now in the 1999 NEC Section 690-7 as a temperature-dependent constant. Current PV modules that are listed to the UL Standard 1703 are listed with a maximum system voltage of 600 volts. Engineers caution all installers, factory and otherwise, to not exceed this voltage. This restriction is not modified by the fact that the modules undergo high-pot tests at higher voltages. UL Standard 1703 allows modules to be listed up to 1000 volts. Although not explicitly stated by the NEC, it is evident that the intent of the Code and the UL Standards is that all cable, switches, fuses, circuit breakers, and modules in a PV system be rated for the maximum system voltage. This is clarified in the 1999 NEC [690-7(a)]. While reducing the potential for line-to-line faults, the practice of wiring each monopole (one of two electrical source circuits) in a separate conduit to the inverter does not eliminate the problem. Consider the bipolar system presented in Figure D-1 with a bolted fault (or deliberate short) from the negative to the D-2\npositive array conductor at the input of the inverter. With the switches closed, array short-circuit current flows, and neither fuse opens.\nSWITCH FUSE\n+ Monopole Voc = 370\nMonopole Voc = 370\nFigure D-1. Typical Bipolar System with Fault Now consider what happens in any of the following cases. 1. A switch is opened 2. A fuse opens 3. A wire comes loose in a module junction box 4. An intercell connection opens or develops high resistance 5. A conductor fails at any point In any of these cases, the entire array voltage (740 volts) stresses the device where the circuit opens. This voltage (somewhere between zero at short-circuit and the array open-circuit voltage) will appear at the device or cable. As the device starts to fail, the current through it goes from Isc to zero as the voltage across the device goes from zero to Voc. This process is very conducive to sustained arcs and heating damage. Separating the monopoles does not avoid the high-voltage stress on any component, but it does help to minimize the potential for some faults. There are other possibilities for faults that will also place the same total voltage on various components in the system. An improperly installed grounding conductor coupled with a module ground fault could result in similar problems.\nSection 690-5 of the NEC requires a ground-fault device on PV systems that are installed on the roofs of dwellings. This device, used for fire protection, must detect the fault, interrupt the fault current, indicate the fault, and disconnect the array. Some large (100 kW) grid-connected PV systems like the one at Juana Diaz, Puerto Rico have inverters that, when shut down, crowbar the array. The array remains crowbarred until the ac power is shut off and creates a similar fault to the one pictured in Figure D-1.\nNEC VOLTAGE LIMITATION The second issue associated with this concern is that the NEC in Section 690-7(c) only allows PV installations up to 600 volts in one and two-family dwellings. Inverter and system design issues may favor higher system voltage levels.\nVOLTAGE REMEDIES System designers can select inverters with lower operating and open-circuit voltages. Utilityintertie inverters are available with voltages as low as 24 volts. The system designer also can work with the manufacturers of higher voltage inverters to reduce the number of modules in each series string to the point where the cold-temperature open-circuit voltage is less than 600 volts. The peak-power voltage would also be lowered. Transformers may be needed to raise the ac voltage to the required level. At least one inverter manufacturer has pursued this option and is offering inverters which can operate with arrays that have open-circuit voltages of less than 600 volts. Cable manufacturers produce UL-Listed, cross-linked polyethylene, single-conductor cable. It is marked USE-2/RHW-2, Sunlight Resistant and is rated at 2000 volts. This cable could be used for module interconnections in conduit after all of the other NEC requirements are met for installations above 600 volts. Several manufacturers issue factory certified rating on their three-pole disconnects to allow higher voltage, non-load break operation with series-connected poles. The NEC will require an acceptable method of obtaining non-load break operation. Some OEM circuit breaker manufacturers will factory certify series-connected poles on their circuit breakers. Units have been used at 750 volts and 100 amps with 10,000 amps of interrupt rating. Higher voltages may be available. High-voltage industrial fuses are available, but dc ratings are unknown at this time. Individual 600-volt terminal blocks can be used with the proper spacing for higher voltages.\nModule manufacturers can have their modules listed for higher system voltages. Most are currently limited to 600 volts. Power diodes may be connected across each monopole. When a bolted line-to-line fault occurs, one of the diodes will be forward biased when a switch or fuse opens, thereby preventing the voltage from one monopole from adding to that of the other monopole. The diodes are mounted across points a-b and c-d in Figure D-1. Each diode should be rated for at least the system opencircuit voltage and the full short-circuit current from one monopole. Since diodes are not listed as over-voltage protection devices, this solution is not recognized in the NEC. The NEC allows PV installations over 600 volts in non-residential applications, which will cover the voltage range being used in most current designs. It should be noted that there are numerous requirements throughout the NEC that apply specifically to installations over 600 volts: \u2022\nAll equipment must be listed for the maximum voltage.\nClearance distances and mechanisms for achieving that clearance are significantly more stringent as voltages increase above 600 volts.\nAPPENDIX E Example Systems The systems described in this appendix and the calculations shown are presented as examples only. The calculations for conductor sizes and the ratings of overcurrent devices are based on the requirements of the 1999 National Electrical Code (NEC) and on UL Standard 1703 which provides instructions for the installation of UL-Listed PV modules. Local codes and site-specific variations in irradiance, temperature, and module mounting, as well as other installation particularities, dictate that these examples should not be used without further refinement. Tables 310-16 and 310-17 from the NEC provide the ampacity data and temperature derating factors.\nCABLE SIZING AND OVERCURRENT PROTECTION The procedure presented below for cable sizing and overcurrent protection of that cable is based on NEC requirements in Sections 690-9, 690-8, 210-20(a), 215-2, 215-3, 220-10, 240-3(b), and 240-6(a). 1.\nCircuit Current. For circuits carrying currents from PV modules, multiply the short-circuit current by 125% and use this value for all further calculations. For PV circuits in the following examples, this is called the PV 125% calculation. In the 1999 NEC, this requirement has been included in Section 690-8, but may also remain in UL 1703. Do not apply this multiplier twice. For dc and ac inverter circuits in PV systems, use the rated continuous currents. AC and dc load circuits should follow the requirements of Sections 210, 220, and 215.\nOvercurrent Device Rating. The overcurrent device must be rated at 125% of the current determined in Step 1. This is to prevent overcurrent devices from being operated at more than 80% of rating. This calculation, in the following examples, is called the NEC 125%.\nCable Sizing. Cables shall have a 30\u00b0C ampacity of 125% of the current determined in Step 1 to ensure proper operation of connected overcurrent devices. There are no additional deratings applied with this calculation.\nCable Derating. Based on the determination of Step 3 and the location of the cable (raceway or free-air), a cable size and insulation temperature rating (60, 75, or 90\u00b0C) are selected from the NEC Ampacity Tables 31016 or 310-17. Use the 75\u00b0C cable ampacities to get the size, then use the ampacity from the 90\u00b0C column\u2014if needed\u2014for the deratings. This cable is then derated for temperature, conduit fill, and other requirements. The resulting derated ampacity must be greater than the value found in Step 1. If not greater, then a larger cable size or higher insulation temperature\nmust be selected. The current in Step 3 is not used at this point to preclude oversizing the cables. 5.\nAmpacity vs. Overcurrent Device. The derated ampacity of the cable selected in Step 4, must be equal to or greater than the overcurrent device rating determined in Step 2. If the derated ampacity of the cable is less than the rating of the overcurrent device, then a larger cable must be selected. The next larger standard size overcurrent device may be used if the derated cable ampacity falls between the standard overcurrent device sizes found in NEC Section 240-6. Note: This step may result in a larger conductor size than that determined in Step 4.\nDevice Terminal Compatibility. Since most overcurrent devices have terminals rated for use with 75\u00b0C (or 60\u00b0C) cables, compatibility must be verified. If a 90\u00b0C-insulated cable was selected in the above process, the 30\u00b0C ampacity of the same size cable with a 75\u00b0C (or 60\u00b0C) insulation must be greater than or equal to the current found in Step 1. This ensures that the cable will operate at temperatures below the temperature rating of the terminals of the overcurrent device. If the overcurrent device is located in an area with ambient temperature higher than 30\u00b0C, then the 75\u00b0C (or 60\u00b0C) ampacity must also be derated.\nHere is an example of how the procedure is used: The task is to size and protect two PV source circuits in conduit, each with an Isc = 40 amps. Four current-carrying conductors are in the conduit and are operating in a 45\u00b0C ambient temperature. Step 1: 1.25 x 40 = 50 amps. (PV 125%) Step 2: The required fuse (with 75\u00b0C terminals) is 1.25 x 50 = 62.5 amps. The next standard fuse size is 70 amps. (NEC 125%) Step 3: Same calculation as Step 2. Cable ampacity without deratings must be 62.5 amps. Step 4: From Table 310-16, cables with 75\u00b0C insulation: A 6 AWG conductor at 65 amps is needed. This meets Step 3 requirements. Plan on installing a 6 AWG XHHW-2 cable with 90\u00b0C insulation and a 30\u00b0C ampacity of 75 amps. Conduit fill derate is 0.8 and temperature derate is 0.87. Derated ampacity is 52.2 amps (75 x 0.8 x 0.87). This is greater than the required 50 amps in Step 1 and meets the requirement.\nStep 5: It is acceptable to protect a cable with a derated ampacity of 52.2 amps with a 60-amp overcurrent device since this is the next larger standard size. However, this circuit requires at least a 62.5 amp device (Step 2). Therefore, the conductor must be increased to a 4 AWG conductor with a derated ampacity of 66 amps (95 x 0.87 x 0.8). A 70-amp fuse is acceptable to protect this cable since it is the next larger standard size. Step 6. The ampacity of a 4 AWG cable with 75\u00b0C insulation (because the fuse has 75\u00b0C terminals) operating at 45\u00b0C is 70 amps (85 x .82), and is higher than the calculated circuit current of 50 amps found in Step 1. Using the 75\u00b0C column in Table 310-16 or 310-17 for starting Step 4 usually ensures that this check will be passed.\nEXAMPLE 1 Direct-Connected Water Pumping System Array Size: 4, 12-volt, 60-watt modules Isc = 3.8 amps, Voc = 21.1 volts Load: 12-volt, 10-amp motor Description The modules are mounted on a tracker and connected in parallel. The modules are wired as shown in Figure E-1 with 10 AWG USE-2 single-conductor cable. A large loop is placed in the cable to allow for tracker motion without straining the rather stiff building cable. The USE-2 cable is run to a disconnect switch in an enclosure mounted on the pole. From this disconnect enclosure, 8 AWG XHHW2 cable in electrical nonmetallic conduit is routed to the well head. The conduit is buried 18 inches deep. The 8 AWG cable is used to minimize voltage drop. The NEC requires the disconnect switch. Because the PV modules are current limited and all conductors have an ampacity greater than the maximum output of the PV modules, no overcurrent device is required, although some inspectors might require it and it might serve to provide some degree of lightning protection. A dc-rated disconnect switch or a dc-rated fused disconnect must be used. Since the system is ungrounded, a two-pole switch must be used. All module frames, the disconnect enclosure, and the pump housing must be grounded, whether the system is grounded or not.\n60w Isc = 3.8a\nG 8 AWG XHHW-2 in Conduit\n10 AWG USE-2 in Free Air Pole Mounted Disconnect Switch\n** Overcurrent device may be required by UL 1703 Equipment Grounds Surge Arrestor\nFigure E-1. Direct Connected System Calculations The array short-circuit current is 15.2 amps (4 x 3.8). PV 125%: 1.25 x 15.2 = 19 amps (Step 1) No fuse, no Step 2 NEC 125%: 1.25 x 19 = 23.75 amps (Step 3) The ampacity of 10 AWG USE-2 at 30\u00b0C is 55 amps. The ampacity at 61-70\u00b0C is 31.9 amps (0.58 x 55) which is more than the 19 amp requirement. (Step 4) The equipment grounding conductors should be 10 AWG. The minimum voltage rating of all components is 26 volts (1.25 x 21.1).\nEXAMPLE 2 Water Pumping System with Current Booster Array Size: 10, 12-volt, 53-watt modules Isc = 3.4 amps, Voc = 21.7 volts Current Booster Output: 90 amps Load: 12-volt, 40-amp motor\nDescription This system has a current booster before the water pump and has more modules than in Example 1. Initially, 8 AWG USE-2 cable was chosen for the array connections, but a smaller cable was chosen to attach to the module terminals. As the calculations below show, the array was split into two subarrays. There is potential for malfunction in the current booster, but it does not seem possible that excess current can be fed back into the array wiring, since there is no other source of energy in the system. Therefore, these conductors do not need overcurrent devices if they are sized for the entire array current. If smaller conductors are used, then overcurrent devices will be needed. Since the array is broken into two subarrays, the maximum short-circuit current available in either subarray wiring is equal to the subarray short-circuit current under fault conditions. Overcurrent devices are needed to protect the subarray conductors under these conditions. A grounded system is selected, and only one-pole disconnects are required. Equipment grounding and system grounding conductors are shown in Figure E-2 If the current booster output conductors are sized to carry the maximum current (3-hour) of the booster, then overcurrent devices are not necessary, but again, some inspectors may require them.\nPole-Mounted 30-Amp Circuit Breaker **\n10 AWG USE-2 in Free Air\nCurrent Booster Controller\n8 AWG XHHW-2 in Conduit\n+ Pump Motor G\nEquipment Grounds\n** Overcurrent device may be required by UL 1703\nFigure E-2. Direct-Connected PV System with Current Booster\nCalculations The array short-circuit current is 34 amps (10 x 3.4). PV 125%: 1.25 x 34 = 42.5 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 42.5 = 53.1 amps The ampacity of 8 AWG USE-2 cable at 30\u00b0C in free air is 80 amps. The ampacity at 61-70\u00b0C is 46.4 amps (0.58 x 80), which is more than the 42.5 amp requirement, and a single array could be used. However, the array is split into two subarrays for serviceability. Each is wired with 10 AWG USE-2 conductors. The subarray short-circuit current is 17 amps (5 x 3.4). PV 125%: 1.25 x 17 = 21.3 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 21.25 = 26.6 amps The ampacity of 10 AWG USE-2 at 30\u00b0C in free air is 55 amps. The ampacity at 61-70\u00b0C is 31.9 amps (0.58 x 55), which is more than the 21.3 amp requirement. Since this cable is to be connected to an overcurrent device with terminals rated at 60\u00b0C or 75\u00b0C, the ampacity of the cable must be evaluated with 60\u00b0C or 75\u00b0C insulation. Overcurrent devices rated at 100 amps or less may have terminals rated at only 60\u00b0C. The ampacity of 10 AWG 75\u00b0C cable operating at 30\u00b0C is 35 amps, which is more than the 21.3 amps requirement. Therefore, there are no problems with the terminals on a 75\u00b0C overcurrent device. Thirty-amp circuit breakers are used to protect the 10 AWG subarray conductors. The required rating is 1.25 x 21.25 = 26.6 amps, and the next largest size is 30 amps. The current booster maximum current is 90 amps. The current booster average long-term (3-hours or longer) current is 40 amps. NEC 125%: 1.25 x 40 = 50 amps The ampacity of 8 AWG XHHW-2 at 30\u00b0C in conduit is 55 amps. The ampacity at 36-40\u00b0C is 50 amps (0.91 x 55), which meets the requirements but may not meet the overcurrent device connection requirements when used. The 8 AWG conductors are connected to the output of the circuit breakers, and there is a possibility that heating of the breaker may occur. It is therefore good practice to make the calculation for terminal overheating. The ampacity of a 8 AWG conductor evaluated with 75\u00b0C insulation (the maximum temperature of the terminals on the overcurrent device) is 50 amps, which is greater than the 40-amp requirement. This means that the overcurrent device will not be subjected to overheating when the 8 AWG conductor carries 40 amps.\nAll equipment-grounding conductors should be 10 AWG. The grounding electrode conductor should be 8 AWG or larger. Minimum voltage rating of all components: 1.25 x 21.7 = 27 volts\nEXAMPLE 3 Stand-Alone Lighting System Array Size: 4, 12-volt, 64-watt modules volts Batteries: 200-amp-hours at 24 volts Load: 60 watts at 24 volts\nIsc = 4.0 amps, Voc = 21.3\nDescription The modules are mounted at the top of a 20-foot pole with the metal-halide lamp. The modules are connected in series and parallel to achieve the 24-volt system rating. The lamp, with an electronic ballast and timer/controller, draws 60 watts at 24 volts. The batteries, disconnect switches, charge controller, and overcurrent devices are mounted in a box at the bottom of the pole. The system is grounded as shown in Figure E-3.\nLamp & Controller\n10 AWG USE-2/RHW-2 In Conduit\n64 W Isc = 4.0\nNotes: All Fuses are 15-Amp, Current-Limiting Types * Optional Fuses Equipment Grounds\nFigure E-3. Stand-Alone Lighting System\nCalculations: The array short-circuit current is 8 amps (2 x 4). PV 125%: 1.25 x 8 = 10 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 10 = 12.5 amps Load Current: 60/24 = 2.5 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 2.5 = 3.1 amps Cable size 10 AWG USE-2/RHW-2 is selected for module interconnections and is placed in conduit at the modules and then run down the inside of the pole. The modules operate at 61-70\u00b0C, which requires that the module cables be temperature derated. Cable 10 AWG USE-2/RHW-2 has an ampacity of 40 amps at 30\u00b0C in conduit. The derating factor is 0.58. The temperature derated ampacity is 23.2 amps (40 x 0.58), which exceeds the 10-amp requirement. Checking the cable with a 75\u00b0C insulation, the ampacity at the fuse end is 35 amps, which exceeds the 10-amp requirement. This cable can be protected by a 15-amp fuse or circuit breaker (125% of 10 is 12.5). An overcurrent device rated at 100 amps or less may only have terminals rated for 60\u00b0C, not the 75\u00b0C used in this example. Lower temperature calculations may be necessary. The same USE-2/RHW-2, 10 AWG cable is selected for all other system wiring, because it has the necessary ampacity for each circuit. A three-pole fused disconnect is selected to provide the PV and load disconnect functions and the necessary overcurrent protection. The fuse selected is a RK-5 type, providing current-limiting in the battery circuits. A pull-out fuse holder with either Class RK-5 or Class T fuses could also be used for a more compact installation. Fifteen amp fuses are selected to provide overcurrent protection for the 10 AWG cables. They are used in the load circuit and will not blow on any starting surges drawn by the lamp or controller. The 15-amp fuse before the charge controller could be eliminated since that circuit is protected by the fuse on the battery side of the charge controller. The disconnect switch at this location is required. The equipment grounding conductors should be 10 AWG conductors. An 8 AWG conductor would be needed to for the ground rod. The dc voltage ratings for all components used in this system should be at least 53 volts (2 x 21.3 x 1.25).\nEXAMPLE 4 Remote Cabin DC-Only System Array Size: 6, 12-volt, 75-watt modules volts Batteries: 700 amp hours at 12 volts Load: 75 watts peak at 12-volts dc\nIsc = 4.8 amps, Voc = 22\nDescription The modules are mounted on a rack on a hill behind the house. Nonmetallic conduit is used to run the cables from the module rack to the control panel. A disconnect and control panel are mounted on the back porch, and the batteries are in an insulated box under the porch. All the loads are dc with a peak combined power of 75 watts at 12 volts due, primarily, to a pressure pump on the gravityfed water supply. The battery bank consists of four 350-amp-hour, 6-volt, deepcycle batteries wired in series and parallel. Figure E-4 shows the system schematic.\n** G\n75 W Isc = 4.8a\n50 feet Control Panel Internal Cables are 6 AWG 8 AWG USE-2 in Free Air 45 Amp 2 AWG\nin Charge Controller\nout 45A RK5\nFused Disconnet\n30A RK5\nDC Loads 10-2 w/ gnd NM\n350 A-H 6-Volt Batteries\nFigure E-4. Remote Cabin DC-Only System Calculations The array short-circuit current is 28.8 amps (6 x 4.8). PV 125%: 1.25 x 28.8 = 36 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 36.0 = 45 amps\nThe module interconnect wiring and the wiring to a rack-mounted junction box will operate at 65\u00b0C. If USE-2 cable with 90\u00b0C insulation is chosen, then the temperature derating factor will be 0.58. The required ampacity of the cable at 30\u00b0C is 62 amps (36/0.58), which can be handled by 8 AWG cable with an ampacity of 80 amps in free air at 30\u00b0C. Conversely, the ampacity of the 8 AWG cable is 46.4 amps (80 x 0.58) at 65\u00b0C which exceeds the 36 amp requirement. From the rack-mounted junction box to the control panel, the conductors will be in conduit and exposed to 40\u00b0C temperatures. If XHHW-2 cable with a 90\u00b0C insulation is selected, the temperature derating factor is 0.91. The required ampacity of the cable at 30\u00b0C would be 36/0.91 = 39.6 amps in conduit. Cable size 8 AWG has an ampacity of 55 amps at 30\u00b0C in conduit. Conversely, the 8 AWG conductor has an ampacity of 50 amps (55 x 0.91) at 40\u00b0C in conduit which exceeds the 39.6 amp requirement at this temperature. The 8 AWG cable, evaluated with a 75\u00b0C insulation, has an ampacity at 30\u00b0C of 50 amps, which is greater than the 36 amps that might flow through it on a daily basis. The array is mounted 200 feet from the house, and the round trip cable length is 400 feet. A calculation of the voltage drop in 400 feet of 8 AWG cable operating at 36 amps (125% Isc) is 0.778 ohms per 1000 feet x 400 / 1000 x 36 = 11.2 volts. This represents an excessive voltage drop on a 12-volt system, and the batteries cannot be effectively charged. Conductor size 2 AWG (with a voltage drop of 2.8 volts) was substituted; this substitution is acceptable for this installation. The conductor resistances are taken from Table 8 in Chapter 9 of the NEC and are given for conductors at 75\u00b0C. The PV conductors are protected with a 45-amp (1.25 x 36) single-pole circuit breaker on this grounded system. The circuit breaker should be rated to accept 2 AWG conductors rated at 75\u00b0C. Cable size 6 AWG THHN cable is used in the control center and has an ampacity of 95 amps at 30\u00b0C when evaluated with 75\u00b0C insulation. Wire size 2 AWG from the negative dc input is used to the point where the grounding electrode conductor is attached instead of the 6 AWG conductor used elsewhere to comply with grounding requirements. The 75-watt peak load draws about 6.25 amps and 10-2 with ground (w/gnd) nonmetallic sheathed cable was used to wire the cabin for the pump and a few lights. DC-rated circuit breakers rated at 20 amps were used to protect the load wiring, which is in excess of the peak load current of 7.8 amps (1.25 x 6.25) and less than the cable ampacity of 30 amps.\nCurrent-limiting fuses in a fused disconnect are used to protect the dc-rated circuit breakers, which do not have an interrupt rating sufficient to withstand the shortcircuit currents from the battery under fault conditions. RK-5 fuses were chosen with a 45-amp rating in the charge circuit and a 30-amp rating in the load circuit. The fused disconnect also provides a disconnect for the battery from the charge controller and the dc load center. The equipment grounding conductors should be 10 AWG and the grounding electrode conductor should be 2 AWG. All components should have a voltage rating of at least 1.25 x 22 = 27.5 volts.\nEXAMPLE 5 Small Residential Stand-Alone System Array Size: 10, 12-volt, 51-watt modules Isc = 3.25 amps, Voc = 20.7 volts Batteries: 800 amp-hours at 12 volts Loads: 5 amps dc and 500-watt inverter with 90% efficiency Description The PV modules are mounted on the roof. Single conductor cables are used to connect the modules to a roof-mounted junction box. UF two-conductor sheathed cable is used from the roof to the control center. Physical protection (wood barriers or conduit) for the UF cable is used where required. The control center, diagrammed in Figure E-5, contains disconnect and overcurrent devices for the PV array, the batteries, the inverter, and the charge-controller.

Small Residential Stand-Alone System Calculations The module short-circuit current is 3.25 amps. PV 125%: 1.25 x 3.25 = 4.06 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 4.06 = 5.08 amps per module The module operating temperature is 68\u00b0C.\nThe derating factor for USE-2 cable is 0.58 at 61-70\u00b0C. Cable 14 AWG has an ampacity at 68\u00b0C of 20.3 amps (0.58 x 35) (max fuse is 15 amps\u2014see notes at bottom of Tables 310-16 & 17). Cable 12 AWG has an ampacity at 68\u00b0C of 23.2 amps (0.58 x 40) (max fuse is 20 amps). Cable 10 AWG has an ampacity at 68\u00b0C of 31.9 amps (0.58 x 55) (max fuse is 30 amps). Cable 8 AWG has an ampacity at 68\u00b0C of 46.4 amps (0.58 x 80). The array is divided into two five-module subarrays. The modules in each subarray are wired from module junction box to module junction box and then to the array junction box. Cable size 10 AWG USE-2 is selected for this wiring, because it has an ampacity of 31.9 amps under these conditions, and the requirement for each subarray is 5 x 4.06 = 20.3 amps. Evaluated with 75\u00b0C insulation, a 10 AWG cable has an ampacity of 35 amps, which is greater than the actual requirement of 20.3 amps (5 x 4.06). In the array junction box on the roof, two 30-amp fuses in pull-out holders are used to provide overcurrent protection for the 10 AWG conductors. These fuses meet the requirement of 25.4 amps (125% of 20.3) and have a rating less than the derated cable ampacity. In this junction box, the two subarrays are combined into an array output. The ampacity requirement is 40.6 amps (10 x 4.06). A 4 AWG UF cable (4-2 w/gnd) is selected for the run to the control box. It operates in an ambient temperature of 40\u00b0C and has an ampacity of 57.4 amps (70 x 0.82). This is a 60\u00b0C cable with 90\u00b0C conductors. Care must be used when connecting to fuses that are rated for use only with 75\u00b0C conductors. A 60-amp circuit breaker in the control box serves as the PV disconnect switch and overcurrent protection for the UF cable. The NEC allows the next larger size; in this case, 60 amps, which is over the 57 amps ampacity of the cable. Two single-pole, pull-out fuse holders are used for the battery disconnect. The charge circuit fuse is a 60-amp RK-5 type. The inverter has a continuous rating of 500 watts at the lowest operating voltage of 10.75 volts and an efficiency of 90% at this power level. The ampacity requirement of the input circuit is 64.6 amps ((500 / 10.75 / 0.90) x 1.25). The cables from the battery to the control center must meet the inverter requirements of 64.6 amps plus the dc load requirements of 6.25 amps (1.25 x 5). A 4 AWG THHN has an ampacity of 85 amps when placed in conduit and evaluated with 75\u00b0C insulation. This exceeds the requirements of 71 amps (64.6 + 6.25). This cable can be used in the custom power center and be run from the batteries to the inverter.\nThe discharge-circuit fuse must be rated at least 71 amps. An 80-amp fuse should be used, which is less than the cable ampacity. The dc-load circuit is wired with 10 AWG NM cable (ampacity of 30 amps) and protected with a 15-amp circuit breaker. The grounding electrode conductor is 4 AWG and is sized to match the largest conductor in the system, which is the array-to-control center wiring. Equipment grounding conductors for the array and the charge circuit can be 10 AWG based on the 60-amp overcurrent devices [Table 250-95]. The equipment ground for the inverter must be an 8 AWG conductor. All components should have at least a dc voltage rating of 1.25 x 20.7 = 26 volts.\nEXAMPLE 6 Medium Sized Residential Hybrid System Array Size: 40, 12-volt, 53-watt modules Isc = 3.4 amps, Voc = 21.7 volts Batteries: 1000 amp-hours at 24 volts Generator: 6 kW, 240-volt ac Loads: 15 amps dc and 4000-watt inverter, efficiency =.85 Description The 40 modules (2120 watts STC rating) are mounted on the roof in subarrays consisting of eight modules mounted on a single-axis tracker. The eight modules are wired in series and parallel for this 24-volt system. Five source circuits are routed to a custom power center. Single-conductor cables are used from the modules to roof-mounted junction boxes for each source circuit. From the junction boxes, UF sheathed cable is run to the main power center. Blocking diodes are not required or used to minimize voltage drops in the system. A prototype array ground-fault detector provides experimental compliance with the requirements of NEC Section 690-5. The charge controller is a relay type. DC loads consist of a refrigerator, a freezer, several telephone devices, and two fluorescent lamps. The maximum combined current is 15 amps. The 4000-watt sine-wave inverter supplies the rest of the house. The 6-kW natural gas fueled, engine-driven generator provides back-up power and battery charging through the inverter. The 240-volt output of the generator is E-14\nfed through a 5 kVA transformer to step it down to 120 volts for use in the inverter and the house. The transformer is protected on the primary winding by a 30-amp circuit breaker [450-3(b)(1) Ex-1]. Figure E-6 presents the details.

Medium Sized Residential Hybrid System Calculations The subarray short-circuit current is 13.6 amps (4 x 3.4). PV 125%: 1.25 x 13.6 = 17 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 17 = 21.25 amps The temperature derating factor for USE-2 cable at 61-70\u00b0C is 0.58. The ampacity of 10 AWG USE-2 cable at 70\u00b0C is 31.9 amps (55 x 0.58). The temperature derating factor for UF cable at 36-40\u00b0C is 0.82. The ampacity of 10-2 w/gnd UF cable at 40\u00b0C is 24.6 amps (30 x 0.82). Since the UF cable insulation is rated at 60\u00b0C, no further temperature calculations are required when this cable is connected to circuit breakers rated for use with 60 or 75\u00b0C conductors.\nThe source-circuit circuit breakers are rated at 25 amps (requirement is 125% of 17 amps = 21.25). The PV array short-circuit current is 68 amps (5 x 13.6). PV 125%: 1.25 x 68 = 85 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 85 = 106 amps A 110-amp circuit breaker is used for the main PV disconnect after the five source circuits are combined. A 110-amp RK5 current-limiting fuse is used in the charge circuit of the power center, which is wired with 2 AWG THHN conductors (170 amps with 75\u00b0C insulation). The dc-load circuits are wired with 10-2 w/gnd NM cable (30 amps) and are protected with 20- or 30-amp circuit breakers. A 100-amp RK-5 fuse protects these discharge circuits from excess current from the batteries. Inverter The inverter can produce 4000 watts ac at 22 volts with an efficiency of 85%. The inverter input current ampacity requirements are 267 amps ((4000 / 22 / 0.85) x 1.25). See Appendix F for more details. Two 2/0 AWG USE-2 cables are paralleled in conduit between the inverter and the batteries. The ampacity of this cable (rated with 75\u00b0C insulation) at 30\u00b0C is 280 amps (175 x 2 x 0.80). The 0.80 derating factor is required because there are four current-carrying cables in the conduit. A 275-amp circuit breaker with a 25,000-amp interrupt rating is used between the battery and the inverter. Current-limiting fusing is not required in this circuit. The output of the inverter can deliver 4000 watts ac (33 amps) in the inverting mode. It can also pass up to 60 amps through the inverter from the generator while in the battery charging mode. Ampacity requirements, ac output: 60 x 1.25 = 75 amps. This reflects the NEC requirement that circuits are not to be operated continuously at more than 80% of rating. The inverter is connected to the ac load center with 4 AWG THHN conductors in conduit, which have an ampacity of 85 amps when used at 30\u00b0C with 75\u00b0C overcurrent devices. An 80-amp circuit breaker is used near the inverter to provide a disconnect function and the overcurrent protection for this cable.\nGenerator The 6-kW, 120/240-volt generator has internal circuit breakers rated at 27 amps (6500-watt peak rating). The NEC requires that the output conductors between the generator and the first field-installed overcurrent device be rated at least 115% of the nameplate rating ((6000 / 240) x 1.15 = 28.75 amps). Since the generator is connected through a receptacle outlet, a 10-4 AWG SOW-A portable cord (30 amps) is run to a NEMA 3R exterior circuit breaker housing. This circuit breaker is rated at 40 amps and provides overcurrent protection for the 8 AWG THHN conductors to the transformer. These conductors have an ampacity of 44 amps (50 x 0.88) at 40\u00b0C (75\u00b0C insulation rating). The circuit breaker also provides an exterior disconnect for the generator. Since the transformer isolates the generator conductors from the system electrical ground, the neutral of the generator is grounded at the exterior disconnect. A 30-amp circuit breaker is mounted near the PV Power Center in the ac line between the generator and the transformer. This circuit breaker serves as the interior ac disconnect for the generator and is grouped with the other disconnects in the system. The output of the transformer is 120 volts. Using the rating of the generator, the ampacity of this cable must be 62.5 amps ((6000 / 120) x 1.25). A 6 AWG THHN conductor was used, which has an ampacity of 65 amps at 30\u00b0C (75\u00b0C insulation rating). Grounding The module and dc-load equipment grounds must be 10 AWG conductors. Additional lightning protection will be afforded if a 6 AWG or larger conductor is run from the array frames to ground. The inverter equipment ground must be a 4 AWG conductor based on the size of the overcurrent device for this circuit. The grounding electrode conductor must be 2-2/0 AWG or a 500 kcmil conductor, unless there are no other conductors connected to the grounding electrode; then this conductor may be reduced to 6 AWG [250-122 Exceptions]. DC Voltage Rating All dc circuits should have a voltage rating of at least 55 volts (1.25 x 2 x 22).\nEXAMPLE 7 Roof-Top Grid-Connected System Array Size: 24, 50-volt, 240-watt modules Isc = 5.6 Voc = 62 Inverter:\n200-volt nominal dc input 240-volt ac output at 5000 watts with an efficiency of 0.95. E-17\nDescription The roof-top array consists of six parallel-connected strings of four modules each. A junction box is mounted at the end of each string which contains a surge arrestor, a blocking diode, and a fuse. All wiring is RHW-2 in conduit. The inverter is located adjacent to the service entrance load center where PV power is fed to the grid through a back-fed circuit breaker. Figure E-7 shows the system diagram.

Roof-Top Grid-Connected System Calculations The string short-circuit current is 5.6 amps. PV 125%: 1.25 x 5.6 = 7 amps NEC 125%: 1.27 x 7 = 8.75 amps The array short-circuit current is 33.6 amps (6 x 5.6). PV 125%: 1.25 x 33.6 = 42 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 42 = 52.5 amps\nThe modules in each string are connected in series. The conductors operate at 63\u00b0C. The temperature derating factor for RHW-2 at this temperature is 0.58. The required 30\u00b0C ampacity for this cable is 15 amps (8.75 / 0.58). RHW-2 14 AWG cable has an ampacity of 25 amps with 90\u00b0C insulation and 20 amps with 75\u00b0C insulation so there is no problem with the end of the cable connected to the fuse since the 7 amps is below either ampacity. This cable is protected with a 9-amp fuse. The cable from the string J-Boxes to the main PV disconnect operates at 40\u00b0C. The temperature derating factor for RHW-2 with 90\u00b0C insulation is 0.91. This yields a 30\u00b0C ampacity requirement of 58 amps (52.5 / 0.91). RHW-2 6 AWG meets this requirement with an ampacity of 75 amps (90\u00b0C insulation), and a number 6 AWG cable with 75\u00b0C insulation has an ampacity of 65 amps, which also exceeds the 42 amp requirement. Overcurrent protection is provided with a 60-amp fused disconnect. Since the negative dc conductor of the array is grounded, only a single-pole disconnect is needed. The inverter output current is 21 amps (5000 / 240). NEC 125%: 1.25 x 21 = 26 amps. The cable from the inverter to the load center operates at 30\u00b0C. Cable size 8 AWG RHW-2 (evaluated with 75\u00b0C insulation) has an ampacity of 50 amps. A back-fed 30-amp, two-pole circuit breaker provides an ac disconnect and overcurrent protection in the load center. The equipment grounding conductors for this system should be at least 10 AWG conductors. The system grounding electrode conductor should be a 6 AWG conductor. All dc circuits should have a voltage rating of at least 310 volts (1.25 x 4 x 62). EXAMPLE 8 Integrated Roof Module System, Grid Connected Array Size: 192, 12-volt, 22-watt thin-film modules Isc = 1.8 amps Vmp = 15.6 volts Voc = 22 volts\n\u00b1180-volt dc input 120-volt ac output 4000 watts 95% efficiency\nDescription The array is integrated into the roof as the roofing membrane. The modules are connected in center-tapped strings of 24 modules each. Eight strings are connected in parallel to form the array. A blocking diode (required by the manufacturer) is placed in series with each string. Strings are grouped in two sets of four and a series fuse protects the module and string wiring as shown in Figure E-8. The bipolar inverter has the center tap dc input and the ac neutral output grounded. The 120-volt ac output is fed to the service entrance load center (fifty feet away) through a back-fed circuit breaker. The manufacturer of these thin-film modules has furnished data that show that the maximum Voc under worst-case low temperatures is 24 volts. The multiplication factor of 1.25 on Voc does not apply [690-7(a)]. The design voltage will be 24 x 24 = 576 volts. The module manufacturer has specified (label on module) 5-amp module protective fuses that must be installed in each (+ and -) series string of modules.

E-20\nCenter-Tapped PV System SUGGESTED PRACTICES\nCalculations Each string short-circuit current is 1.8 amps. PV 125% (estimated for thin-film modules): 1.25 x 1.8 = 2.25 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 2.25 = 2.8 amps Each source circuit (4 strings) short-circuit current is 7.2 amps (4 x 1.8). PV 125%: 1.25 x 7.2 = 9 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 9 = 11.25 amps The array (two source circuits) short-circuit current is 14.4 amps (2 x 7.2). PV 125%: 1.25 x 14.4 = 18 amps NEC 125%: 1.25 x 18 = 22.5 amps USE-2 cable is used for the module cables and operates at 75\u00b0C when connected to the roof-integrated modules. The temperature derating factor in the wiring raceway is 0.41. For the strings, the 30\u00b0C ampacity requirement is 5.5 amps (2.25 / 0.41). Each source circuit conductor is also exposed to temperatures of 75\u00b0C. The required ampacity for this cable (at 30\u00b0C) is 22.0 amps (9 / 0.41). Wire size 10 AWG USE-2 is selected for moisture and heat resistance. It has an ampacity of 40 amps at 30\u00b0C (90\u00b0C insulation) and can carry 35 amps when limited to a 75\u00b0C insulation rating. This cable is used for both string and sourcecircuit wiring. Fifteen-amp fuses are used to protect the string and source-circuit conductors. The array wiring is inside the building and RHW-2 is used in conduit. It is operated at 50\u00b0C when passing through the attic. The temperature derating factor is 0.82, which yields a 30\u00b0C ampacity requirement of 22 amps (18 / 0.82). Cable size 10 AWG has an ampacity of 40 amps (90\u00b0C insulation) or 35 amps (evaluated with 75\u00b0C insulation). Both of these ampacities exceed the 22-amp requirement. Twenty-five amp fuses are required to protect these cables, but 30amp fuses are selected for better resistance to surges. Since the inverter has high voltages on the dc-input terminals (charged from the ac utility connection), a pullout fuse holder is used. The inverter is rated at 4000 watts at 120 volts and has a 33-amp output current. The ampacity requirement for the cable between the inverter and the load center is 42 amps ((4000 / 120) x 1.25) at 30\u00b0C. Wire size 8 AWG RHW-2 in conduit connects the inverter to the ac-load center, which is fifty feet away and, when evaluated at with 75\u00b0C insulation, has an ampacity of 50 amps at 30\u00b0C. A 50-amp circuit breaker in a small circuit-breaker enclosure is mounted next to the inverter to provide an ac disconnect for the inverter that can be grouped with the dc\ndisconnect. Another 50-amp circuit breaker is back-fed in the service entrance load center to provide the connection to the utility. The modules have no frames and, therefore, no equipment grounding requirements. The inverter and switchgear should have 10 AWG equipment grounding conductors. The system grounding electrode conductor should be a 8 AWG conductor. All dc components in the system should have a minimum voltage rating of 600 volts (24 x 24 = 576).\nAPPENDIX F DC Currents on Single-Phase Stand-alone Inverters When the sinusoidal ac output current of a stand-alone inverter goes to zero 120 times per second, the input dc current also goes nearly to zero. With a resistive ac load connected to the inverter, the dc current waveform resembles a sinusoidal wave with a frequency of 120 Hz. The peak of the dc current is significantly above the average value of the current, and the lowest value of dc current is near zero. An example of this is shown in the Figure F1. This is an example of a single-phase stand-alone inverter operating with a 4000-watt resistive load. The input battery voltage is 22 volts. The figure shows the dc current waveform. The measured average dc current is 254 amps. The RMS value of this current is 311 amps. 600\ntime [ms]\nLoad Power = 4000 Watts Battery Voltage = 22.0 Volts\nCurrent Average = 254.2 Amperes Current RMS = 311.3 Amperes\nFigure F-1. Inverter Current Waveform (dc side) The calculated dc current for this inverter (as was done in Example 6 in Appendix E) is 214 amps (4000/22/0.85) when using the manufacturer's specified efficiency of 85%.\nThe RMS value of current is the value that causes heating in conductors and is the value of current that causes overcurrent devices to trip. In this case, if the inverter were operated at 100% of rated power and at a low battery voltage, the conductors and overcurrent devices would have to be rated to carry 311 amps, not the calculated 214 amps. Code requirements would increase the cable ampacity requirements and overcurrent device ratings to 388 amps (1.25 x 311). Loads that have inductive components may result in even higher RMS values of dc currents. The systems designer should contact the inverter manufacturer in cases where it is expected that the inverter may operate at loads approaching the full power rating of the inverter. The inverter manufacturer should provide an appropriate value for the dc input current under the expected load conditions\nINDEX acid, 3, 31, 39, 40 aluminum, 7 amp ratings, 25 ampacity, 2, 6, 7, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 31, 41, 51, 52, 53, A3, B3, B4, E1-6, E8, E10, E13-17, E19, E21 array, 8, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22, 26, 27, 30, 31, 35, 37, 50, 55, C1, D2-4, E3-6, E8-10, E12-14, E16-21 batteries, 2, 3, 12, 26, 31, 32, 34, 38, 39, 40, E7, E9, E10, E12, E13, E16 battery, 15, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40 charge controller, 18, 20, 35, 37, 42, 43, 45, E7, E8, E11, E14\ndisconnect, 1, 2, 4, A5, A6, C1, C2, D2, D4, E3, E5, E8, E9, E11-13, E16, E17, E19, E21 disconnect switch, 16, 32, 37, 45, 53, E3, E8, E13 Electric shock, 38 electric spark, 39 fuses, 2, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 41, 45, A3-5, B2, C1-3, D2, D4, E8, E11, E13, E21 generators, 21, 26, 41 Grid-connected, 4, 27, 33, A-2, C-1, D-4, E17, E-18 ground fault, 49, D2, D3\ncircuit breaker, 20, 33, 34, 35, 37, 49, 51, 52, 54, A5-7, C2, D2, D4, E6, E8, E10, E13-21\ngrounded, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 34, 38, 43, 49, C1, C2, D1, E3, E5, E7, E10, E17, E19, E20\nconductor, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 32, 33, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 43, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 1, 3, 4, 3, 4, A1, A3, B2-4, C1, C2, D3, D4, E1-3, E6, E7, E10-12, E14, E17, E19, E21, E22\nground-fault currents, 15, C2\nconduit, 5, 8, 10, 11, 24, 38, 39, 43, 48, B3, B4, C2, D2, D4, E1-3, E6, E8-10, E12, E13, E16, E18, E21\ngrounding, 2, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 34, 38, 41, 43, 48, 49, A1, C1, C2, D3, E4, E5, E7, E8, E10, E11, E14, E17, E19, E22\ncurrent rating, 41, A5 dc rating, 30\nground-fault detection, 15 ground-fault device, D4 ground-fault equipment, 53, C1 ground-fault circuit interrupter, 21, 49, E19\nInterrupting Rating, 31\nderating, 8, B4, E1, E8, E10, E13, E15, E16, E19, E21\ninverter, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 29, 33, 35, 38, 41, 44, 49, 51, 52, C1, D2, D4, E1, E12-14, E16-22\ndevice rating, 6, 31, 53, D1, E1, E2\njunction box, 5, 10, 15, 3, 10, 12, 13, 18 listed connectors, 22\nlocking connectors, 48\nsplit-bolt connectors, 12\nmodule, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26, 44, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, B4, C2, D1- 4, E1, E3, E810, E12, E13, E17, E20, E21\ntemperature rating, 6, 8, B4, E1, E2\nModule connectors, 12 overcurrent protection, 2, 15, 25, 26, 27, 30, A3, A4, E1, E8, E13, E16, E17, E19 pressure connectors, 12 rating of overcurrent devices, 25 single-pole disconnect, 19\nUL-Listed, 3, 10, 27, 29, 30, 32, 34, 35, 43, 44, A3, A6, A7, C2, D4, E1 voltage rating, 26, A2, C1, C5, D1, E1, E4, E7, E11, E14, E17, E19, E22 wire connectors, 12 wiring, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 25, 26, 27, 48, 49, 51, B1, C1, D2, E5, E8, E10, E13, E14, E18, E20, E21\nDISTRIBUTION LIST MS-9018\nCentral Technical Files, 8940-2\nTechnical Library, 4916\nReview & Approval Desk, 15102 For DOE/OSTI\nSAND2001-0674 Unlimited Release Printed March 2001 Updated to 1999 NEC (Minor Revisions 2/02) Supersedes SAND96-2797 Dated December 1996 Photovoltai...\n2014 national electrical code - Mersen\nSection X Adjustable-Speed Drive Systems of Article 430 Motors, Motor Circuits and Controllers had no information on short circuit and ground fault protective requirements.

        "raw_content": "The Middle East Mess\nBy Victor Davis Hanson 2011-08-24T11:07:21\nLibya, Iraq, Syria, Iran, and the All the Same Old, Same Old Mess\nEach country in the Middle East poses unique challenges. That said, gender apartheid, religious intolerance, tribalism, dictatorship, statism, and lack of transparency and free expression are widely shared in the region, and mean that any particular policy will almost immediately collide with some two millennia of habit and custom antithetical and often hostile to the values of the West. That the West is presently broke, multicultural, full of guilt and incapable of defending its values and history only confuses the issue even more.\nWe are all glad that the Gadhafi regime is purportedly on its last legs. When I visited Libya in 2006, tragedy was what I saw\u2014and a friendly population under the yoke of a psychopath. But I don\u2019t think we have had much idea of what we were doing in Libya\u2014a sort of diplomatic pastime secondary to presidential jet-setting and golfing. Moreover, I don\u2019t see any hypocrisy in critiquing our confusion over Libya, as a supporter of the removal of Saddam Hussein. Wanting to use American power and influence to its fullest extent when going to war is preferable to not wanting to use all our power and influence when going to war. The hypocrisy is rather on the Left, which once damned the principle of intervention against an Arab Middle East oil-exporting nation that had not recently attacked us, only to support intervention against an Arab Middle East oil exporting nation that had not recently attacked us. In the Left\u2019s defense, one could argue their consistency is that it\u2019s OK if you have a UN vote, but irrelevant whether you have consent of the U.S. Congress.\nSaddam Hussein\u2019s Iraq was the object of 23 different Congressional authorizations (one should go back and read that October 2002 long list of \u201cwhereas\u201des), had been in hot and cold wars with us since 1991, attacked four neighbors, and in the heart of the ancient caliphate was hosting all sorts of terrorists. In a post-911 climate it made sense to reckon with him. Indeed, I think one of the great untold stories of Iraq was the carnage of Islamic terrorists who by volition promised that Iraq would be the central theater in jihad, flocked there, were killed and wounded in droves, and lost\u2014and vastly weakened their cause. But in contrast, the West was apparently in the middle of a weird charm offensive with Gadhafi (one advanced by bought-and-paid-for American academics, European oil companies, and multicultural elites), and the result by 2010 was that Libya was considered no longer the 1986 Libya that Reagan had bombed.\nhttps://pjmedia.com/victordavishanson/the-middle-east-mess/\nThe Past Is Another Country \u2014 A Crappy One\nPro-Choice Angered by Jerry Brown in California",

Can you say mutli-pitch?!?\nOne of the first things I loved about Kuala Lumpur was its transit system. The express train will get you from the airport to the central station in 28 minutes. From there, you can use the commuter rails to go wherever. I found it interesting that some of the train cars are designated for women only. They are pink.\nThe next thing I loved about Kuala Lumpur was that there is a Batu Caves terminal station and a train that gets you there in about 30 minutes. So, that\u2019s what I did. About half way up the 272 stairs, stopping for a picture sounded like a great idea.\nThere are a variety of shrines in and along the way up. I loved that once you get to the \u201ctop\u201d, you\u2019re rewarded with more stairs. There is a lot going on at the main entrance\u2026 construction workers trying to drop materials on you, vendors trying sell you souvenirs, monks ringing bells, macaques trying to steal your food, and Chinese tourists trying to clothesline you with their selfie sticks.\nOne of the views of Kuala Lumpur almost made it worthwhile. Scoping out the limestone for a future climbing trip definitely made it rewarding.\nAfter scouting outside the caves to locate climbing areas, I wasn\u2019t left with much daylight. There is definitely some multi-pitch climbing which I\u2019ll have to research.\nAfter the train ride back to the center of town, a walk around Petaling Street and up to the Menara KL Tower made for a long but fun night.

However, this also means the volume of electronic waste is growing three times faster than any other waste stream in Australia. E-waste recycling solutions will represent a major part of the movement towards a circular economy in Australia. So where are we currently?\nE-waste includes everything from TVs, computers and mobile phones to batteries, printer cartridges and kitchen appliances. For some electronics we\u2019re not doing too badly. Around 60,000 tonnes of TVs and computers were recycled in 2016-17 through organisations like TechCollect, representing a recycling rate of over 50%. Not bad considering we were achieving just 10% about a decade ago. Mobile phones are also experiencing positive recycling outcomes, with MobileMuster reporting a recycling rate of 68.5% last year. However, when it comes to handheld household batteries, which does not have a product stewardship program, we\u2019re hovering at around 5% or less. Not to mention the booming consumer demand for lithium-ion batteries used in energy storage and electric cars, and resulting waste.\nThere is a growing need to for product stewardship schemes that ensure e-waste is effectively recycled, which in turn will help consumers do the right thing with their electronics.\nReduce before recycle!\nBefore replacing dated electronic products, take a moment to first consider whether you really need the updated version or if you could live without it. If you personally no longer want or need the item, find out if it could be re-used by friends and family or refurbished by the manufacturer and made available to lower-income communities. Local charity groups also often accept older electronic products.\nThe tendency to continually update our electronics is the primary reason the volume of e-waste we produce in Australia is climbing so rapidly and there is little doubt we need a more sustainable model of consuming electronics.\nThe real question is why wouldn\u2019t you? E-waste contains a high amount of non-renewable resources such as plastic and precious metals including gold, silver, platinum, nickel, zinc, aluminium and copper. Recycling these materials prevents new electronics being made from virgin non-renewable sources while also preventing the products winding up in landfill where toxic materials can leak into groundwater, contaminate the soil, and even enter the food chain.\nWe are more than capable of recycling the vast majority of these materials. Almost 99% of computer and mobile phone components can be recovered and recycled.\nWhat happens to e-waste?\nE-waste collected for recycling is almost always manually disassembled and assorted into its various components. These individual materials such as cabling, circuit boards, glass, metals and plastics are then processed for use as raw materials in new products.\nComputers and accessories can often be refurbished and made available to lower-income communities. If this is not an option, individual materials such as cabling, glass, circuit boards and plastics are recovered and processed into raw materials.\nMobile phones are disassembled into component parts, which are then transported to local and overseas recyclers for processing. The plastic can be made into shipping pallets and lithium extracted from the phones can be made into new batteries.\nWhitegoods such as fridges and washing machines have hazardous materials removed before being crushed and shredded for recycling.\nElectrical appliances such as DVD players, alarm clocks, cameras, toasters and radios could be repaired at reuse centres. Through recycling, many of the materials, including glass, copper, plastics, metals and precious metals, are recovered for further processing and eventual use in the manufacture of new products\nThese are just some of the uses for recycled e-waste materials. More innovative solutions such as using materials from recycled printer cartridges as a component in road surfacing are already on the market.\nReuse by passing it on via digital platforms\nRepair via community reuse centres\nRecycle mobile phones through MobileMuster, TVs and computers through TechCollect and printer cartridges through Cartridges 4 Planet Ark.\nSign up your workplace for a free mobile phone or printer cartridge collection box through MobileMuster and Cartridges4PlanetArk.\nSearch RecyclingNearYou for more information on e-waste recycling generally and how to ensure particular electronic products get recycled.\nSupport manufacturers who are taking responsibility via product stewardship schemes.",

        "title": "Sleep Habits of Highly succesful People - Sacramento Web Design",
        "raw_content": "BY MARLA TABAKA\n@MarlaTabaka\nYour mother told you to get eight solid hours every night. She may have been wrong.\nSleep isn\u2019t just something we spend a lot of time doing. It\u2019s also something we spend a lot of time thinking about. Sleep deprivation can cause a variety of problems that can negatively affect your productivity, leading to anything from concentration problems to depression. But what is the right amount of sleep? The traditional number (and the National Sleep Foundation\u2018s recommendation) is somewhere between seven and nine hours for a healthy adult. However, some experts argue that anything more than seven hours is unhealthy. Furthermore, the C.D.C. found that some people may have a gene that lets them sleep less. Take to the internet or hit the books when it comes to sleep and you\u2019ll find a lot of disagreement, conflicting studies, and not too many clear answers. One thing is clear, though: Sleep is important.\nSome of history\u2019s most successful people\u2013and some of the most successful people living today\u2013have answered the sleep question in surprising ways. While some, like Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, get between seven and nine hours of sleep every night, others have strange habits and schedules that may seem impossible to keep to the average sleeper.\nAccording to President Trump, you don\u2019t get to be a celebrity, business magnate, real estate tycoon, and President without sacrificing some rest. Trump credits his success, in part, to the fact that he gets only three to four hours of sleep each night. He\u2019s said, \u201cHow does somebody that\u2019s sleeping 12 and 14 hours a day compete with someone that\u2019s sleeping three or four?\u201d For some reason, possibly genetic, this dearth of sleep doesn\u2019t run Trump into the ground with exhaustion. On the contrary, it seems that the proof is in the pudding with Trump\u2019s sleeping habits.\nThomas Edison, one of history\u2019s most famous inventors, would not be sympathetic to discussions of healthy sleeping habits. Edison simply had too much he wanted to accomplish, and he considered sleep a royal waste of time. Like Trump, Edison got only three\u2013sometimes four\u2013hours of sleep a night, although he was known to occasionally take a power nap during the day. Allegedly, Edison once worked a full 72 hours straight, without any breaks for rest. Who knows, maybe part of Edison\u2019s inspiration for inventing the light bulb was so that he could work late into the night with adequate lighting?\nMarissa Mayer, currently the CEO of Yahoo and previously the renowned Google executive, gets very little sleep. It should come as no surprise\u2013considering that she infamously worked as much as 130-hour work weeks while at Google\u2013that Mayer prioritizes work over rest. She reportedly gets only four to six hours of sleep every night, recharging by taking week-long vacations about three times every year.\nWhatever you think of Martha Stewart, she\u2019s a woman who needs no introduction. Stewart has achieved an astounding amount, and she hasn\u2019t done it by sleeping. Somehow, household name Martha Stewart manages to not just get by, but also to thrive, on four hours or less each night.\nNikola Tesla, one of history\u2019s other most famous inventors, apparently was able to one-up Edison in more areas than just technological advancements in electricity. At most, Tesla would get just two hours of sleep per night. As a boy, Tesla would secretly stay up all night reading without being visibly any worse for wear. Keeping this extreme a sleep schedule did contribute to a nervous breakdown in his 20s, but Tesla didn\u2019t become known as the Father of Electricity by quitting\u2013or, apparently, by sleeping.\nExtreme sleeping schedules did contribute to the success of these famous achievers, but everyone requires a different amount of sleep to be physically and emotionally healthy. Just because Tesla got two hours of sleep a night doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s ideal\u2013or even possible\u2013for just anyone to copy his sleep habits. Donald Trump may think his level of success requires extreme sleep schedules, but Gates, Warren, and Bezos prove otherwise.",

        "raw_content": "The Heart & Soul of the Lakota: The Buffalo\nAt the core of the Lakota culture is the buffalo or Tatanka. For thousands of years, the lives of the Buffalo Nation and the Lakota people were spiritually and physically interconnected - as herds roamed free across the North American plains, this nomadic tribe followed.\nAs long as the North American buffalo roamed free and bountiful, the Plains Indians were able to remain sovereign. Buffalo were their lifeline\u2014the Indians had a symbiotic relationship with them, and always honored the mighty beasts for the many blessings they provided. - From the article Genocide by Other Means on Indian Country Today\nAs the buffalo roamed the Plains, so did the Lakota. The entire existence of the people centered around the buffalo's epic migration across the vast plains of North America - from Canada to Mexico; the Pacific Northwest to the Appalachian Mountains.\nFollowing and being close to the buffalo was important; permanence was not. Everything they owned could easily be carried by a person, dog, or horse - the portable homes (tipis), the leather or rawhide containers for mobile storage, the cradles specifically made for easy transport, and the ingenious travois gave them the ability to move the entire camp in one trip.\nThe location of their camp and the length of time at each site (from months to a few days) was almost solely determined by the location of the buffalo herd.\nAdopting the ways of the buffalo\nPre late 19th century, the great Buffalo Nation numbered in the millions; tribal members were countless. As the bison's deep understanding of survival is determined by numbers, the Plains Indians knew this to be true as well, and thrived in great numbers.\nThe buffalo is brave - they were practically invincible and afraid of nothing - and the fearless native warriors reflected these courageous traits in battle. The buffalo were also good family members\u2026and so were the people.\nGivers of Life\nTo the Lakota, these magnificent animals sustained all life. The Lakota regarded the buffalo as a gift of the Great Spirit and viewed them as a relative. Whenever one was killed, its sacrifice was honored as a blessing from the Tatanka Oyate.\nThe buffalo meant everything\u2026they provided us our shelter, our food, our weapons, our toys. The lives of the people once revolved around the way of the buffalo. The buffalo was a connection to the Creator. The buffalo provided for the people spiritually, culturally, and socially. The buffalo gave the people life. The buffalo is life.\n- Excerpts from Bison, Givers of Life on Indian Country Today\nOur belief today still is, as it once was: As long as there are buffalo, there will remain the Oyate.\nTags: Art Ceremony Culture History Share:",

But the Mexican student mass movement will forever remain an indelible movement that led to a great massacre that saw many students loose their lives as they tried to bargain for what was rightfully correct. The students wanted to express their dissatisfaction with the society and most importantly the government of the time and hence tried to create a much better world a place they would call home (Downs, 2004).\nThough the movement was short lived as it was brutally extinguished by the Mexican army who left approximately 400 hundred students dead the nearly half a million striking university students left a lasting impression that was taken down in the history of Mexico. The roots of The 1968 Mexican Student Movement which involved almost every university and polytechnic student can be traced back to the ideological clashes between the different generations that existed in Mexico during this period. To add to the ideological clashes were the capitalism and socialism ideologies that differently influenced these students and the government that reigned during this time.\nThe activities of this student movement took their peak in the 2nd of October 1968 and have been recorded in the Mexican history and this day is considered as the most important moment of this movement. During this day students from all over Mexico, UNAM, IPN and other educational institutions put their differences aside and came together as one to execute their ultimate goals revolting authoritativeness of the government being a prime one (Shapira, 1997). Much to the student's aid was the Summer Olympics of 1968 which were quite significant and influence the actions that the government took against these striking students. Both parties, the government and the students, actions were driven by the different generational ideologies that each camp held on to which will be discussed later in this paper. Much to the influence of this student movement were other movements in the world the Hippie movement being a good example. The movement had a lot of influence in the feminism of the Mexicans with the Mexican playing a key role in what was to be later labeled the Mexico 68 (Downs, 2004).\nJust to place the movement's roots into context the movement came to its effect after the Vietnamese War which had raised a lot ideological revolutions around the globe. With the invention of the pill, feminism had gained a lot of momentum as sexual liberation had been given life. Apart from this was Hippie movement which gave birth to the ideology of love and peace which the student had globally taken up and made the best of their efforts to thoroughly extend in their corresponding societies. These were among some of the major reasons as to many student movements in Germany, France, Japan, the U.S, Italy, Argentina and Czechoslovakia had been effected as many youths especially students who considered themselves intellectual wanted to express their dissatisfaction with the social situations of the time (Downs, 2004).\nTo go back to the Mexican case, as the paper had highlighted earlier, the clash between the government and the student was as a result of the ideological differences between the two camps who represented two different generations. The younger and newer generation had accommodated innovations looking at them with an open mind whereas the older one which was very authoritative (comprising the government) were conservative and not ready to take up all the looming new ideas. With these ideological clashes the older generation resulted to repression in order to try and contain the situation and this is what led to the formation the many student (young adult) movements in Mexico. During these times repression was a greatly valued way of controlling the society.\nThe initial event that led to the start of the movement is as follows. A fight had one day broken between high school students over a football game. The Mexican City riot police had been sent in as usual to calm the skirmishes but the student this time engaged them in a fierce fight. After hours of revolt the army was called in to contain the extreme violence. This siege came to an end when military officers blasted the gate of the San IIdefonso National preparatory school using a bazooka which left some of the students dead. Since Preparatory school was overseen by the National University and the university official as well as the students had to step in (Downs, 2004). From this point on University student with the support of university official started organizing protest against the government's use of excessive force employed by riot police units during repressions.\nLater on rallies and protest against government violence and repression became the main concern for student's movements who wanted to see revolution being affected to end the government's authoritatie ways. The government had had completely gone overboard even restricting the freedom of speech as well as mass actions for the Mexican citizens. The people especially the students who viewed themselves as agents of change had gotten tired of such kind of a lifestyle which brought a lot of discontent on their part as they were so dissatisfied with the Mexican Government. The government stuck to the constitution which gave it the right to use military force in maintaining peace and order while the young generation was greatly opposed to this (Shapira, 1997).\nThe students pressured the government expecting it to give in to their demands but were greeted with a crushing message from the Mexican president that clearly indicated that 'unrest would no longer be tolerated. Following this the Military went ahead to take the National University seizure which went ahead with no virtual student resistance. Later on the military seized the National polytechnic but this time with a lot of violent resistance by the students. The above events prompted students from all over Mexico to call for a fresh gathering on the 2nd of October which was to be held at the Three Culture Squares inside the Tlatelolco housing complex (Hildreth, 1972). The students were very keen to come and get the way forward, the next steps of the student's movement.\nThe Olympic Games to be hosted by Mexico were fast closing in at and the students wanted to take it to their advantage. By hosting these games Mexico would be the first developing country to host them and this surely provided a good opportunity to earn a lot of income especially fro tourist drawn in by the Olympics. Selling a good picture to the world was hence important as it would attract a lot of international investors. However the students wanted to boycott the event as they argued that the image of Mexico to the rest of the world was not a major priority at that time. They therefore preferred a revolution which would reform their country.\nOn the 2nd of October Students from all over Mexico began gathering at the Three Culture Plaza for the arranged meeting which was then to be escorted with a march to the IPN in protest of military occupation. Fully equipped soldiers had been stationed all around the plaza prior to the meeting making the atmosphere around the plaza very tense. By around 6 P.M thousands of students and neighbors had curiously gathered to witness the event. Shortly after gunshots were heard and government officials streamed in trying to arrest s many student leaders as they could (Hildreth, 1972). This massacre lasted for approximately four hours leaving approximately four hundred students dead but the government covered this up reporting that only four students died while on lookers told a different story. The student's movement was crushed and the Olympic went on peacefully with the government selling out the picture it had wanted to the rest of the world.\nReading the history of the Mexican student movement one question becomes quite inevitable. What were the consequences of the student movement or did the student movement achieve what it had set itself against. The answer to this question is quite to the affirmative. In spite all the propaganda that was looming around, Mexico was characterized by an emergent democracy seeking for social justice. Though, the 1968 student movement was put to check, it really exposed the flaws of the Mexican government by revealing the system as to what it was thus an authoritarian and brutal regime which was only interested in enriching the already rich (Shapira, 1997).\nDespite having a federalist constitution which was democratic, Mexico was centrally governed from the city of Mexico with the PRI as the government's political party winning in almost all elections. The dispensation of social services was done on the basis of political imperatives and not income disparities or needs. The movement which precipitated all the mass actions of the time had risen in reaction against reliance of repression which only exacerbated the situation. In the face of international Embarrassment the government had mishandled the looming dispute by resulting to repression of the only strongest tactic it had in hand to suppress the movement.\nAfter this fatal event the middle and upper classes which has enjoyed immunity from the violence of the government realized through their children that they were not immune to attack if they were to question the government's supremacy closely. Domestic and foreign scholars began their criticisms towards the system and started agitating for democratic reforms. This social movement hence gave birth to consequences that could no longer be avoided and which permanently changed the future of Mexico.\nThe major changes that were noted as a result of the student movement were more evidently displayed on the political up front. The inhabitants realized they had an opportunity to lead a new democracy whereby their opinion counted and was important in shaping out change min the Mexican society. People no longer left all thheir trust with the government and defied the norm of living under the ultimate control of their government and neither were they ready to tolerate it any longer even though complete freedom had not been achieved (Carey, 2005). Some of the government officials even resigned from heir possession as a way of protest and expression of the government crude way of repression towards the Mexican Student Movement. However some still believed the government had done nothing wrong in resulting to the harsh repression means.\nIn the social upfront, several social reforms were effected following the year after the massacre. People no longer agreed to live by the unbreakable and strict rules that the previous government had propagated. As a result of this people started exercising their freedom of action under the county's law which was also the same case with the freedom of speech or expression which was not under any restrictions. New ideas found their way into the surface which led to transformations in daily lifestyles. New feminist ideologies were also discovered allowing women to actively agitate for their rights as they had always in the past been tramped upon. With this women increased their social participation in the country's affairs. Apart from house keeping and child bearing and rearing women had an open highway for them to actively engage in business.\nIt would be quite unfair not to recognize the role that the movement played in women affairs. Those who participated in the student movement witnessed a social experience of their life time which led to them to expand their expectations one as women and secondly as Mexican citizens. The social and political commitment of women was awakened. Before the Massacre some of the student organizations had already started giving women a chance to actively participate in the social movement. This had resulted to stronger growth and spreading of feminist ideas among women (Carey, 2005). Women had also played a significant role in propagating the activities of this movement. During this times government officials only focused on men while responding to the movement ignoring the fact that women played important roles in the same. Due to this discrimination, even during the 2nd October massacre government official only targeted men hence women activists were left behind. This helped in keeping the movement alive as these women gave it direction in the years that ensued.\nDespite the fact that the Mexican student movement was crushed the question as to whether it achieved what it had initially set its self against has yes as the ultimate answer. Though the aftermath of its actions were quite fatal it left a lasting impression and impact on the Mexican society. The social injustices that it highly objected were eventually tramped upon. The clash of ideologies had eventually resulted to a great revolution with the young generation who had for a long time been repressed by the older regime who controlled governance in Mexico. The young generation played an important role through the Student movement in keeping the Mexican society abreast with the new explosions of ideas all over the world. The older generation had for long refused to embrace new ideas look at things with an open mind and hence had given the government a go ahead to continue oppressing them through the use of repression to tramp on their right in the pretence of maintaining law an order.\nThe student movement acted as an eye opener to the idle and upper classes who ignored the importance of democracy and let the government thrive in its authoritarian way of rule. The movement exposed the government as to what it was authoritarian ad violent never caring about the citizens as its interest was focused on material wealth. The young generation had educated the older shed their blood to make the world and the society a better place and made Mexico a place they could call home. It made the first crack into the edifice of the authoritarian Institutional evolutional party (Shapira, 1997). The student movement is therefore considered to be a lot of things at the same time. It was a tool of unmasking the edifice of the Mexican state, a crisis amid the traditional modes of revolutionalizing the country, a spoken word or rumor as an alternative to the television and the press, a sacrifice, violence and repression. But most importantly, more than anything else it encompassed the re-launching of the new generation of student revolutionaries reforming their dear society and a re-discovery of popular unanimity.\nThe student's movement was a means to an end that finally gave birth to democracy, a face of change that brought social and political revolution and educated the older generation on what the term democracy really entailed. Social justice as the main objective was finally achieves through the events precipitated by the student movement and though it cannot be fully credited with the full achievement of freedom of the Mexicans against the authoritarian regime it actually laid a strong foundation, a strong rock on which all this was late to be achieved on.\nBenefits and Risks of Modernity\nEnlightenment and Anti-Enlightenment Theories",

        "raw_content": "Rome: Film Studies (Outgoing Program)\nA+L, EL, SCBI\nSpend your summer in Rome! Study how Italian culture and identity are portrayed through films from classics such as Bicycle Thieves, La Dolce Vita, and Roman Holiday, to acclaimed contemporary works like Call Me By Your Name and Gomorra. Visits to filming locations in Rome illuminate how cinematic settings structure our experience of a city, a nation, and its culture. Discussions with Italian film industry representatives provide a firsthand perspective on the filmmaking process, revealing how industry structure, financial conditions, and storytelling styles shape the representation of cultural issues. The program includes a weekend excursion to the beautiful Tuscan countryside, a journey to an international film festival in Bologna, and a day trip to a beautiful beach along the Mediterranean coast.\nMichael DeAngelis is a Professor of Media Studies at DePaul, and he teaches courses in film history, film analysis, queer studies, and 1960s cinema and culture. He has taught a number of courses on international cinema, including a new course that he is currently developing for Spring Quarter 2019 addressing the cinematic representation of faith, redemption and transcendence. Michael has taught in DePaul study abroad programs in Italy, Hong Kong and Bangkok.\nAll students will be enrolled in the following courses:\nCourse MCS 251/ DC 395: Spaces of Cinema in Rome\nTerm registered Summer 2018\nLiberal Studies Domain: Arts and Literature (A + L) or Experiential Learning (EL)\nTaught by Michael DeAngelis\nCourse description The medium of cinema is a powerful tool for interpreting both how national cultures see themselves and how they convey these perceptions to international audiences. This course provides students with the chance to study the rich history and heritage of Italian cinema through an analysis of critically acclaimed films produced by the Italian film industry, from the end of World War II through the contemporary period. The settings for all of the films in the course is the fascinating and culturally rich city of Rome, from its immediately identifiable landmarks such as the Coliseum, the Pantheon, and the Trevi Fountain, to its fascinating and diverse neighborhoods such as Magliana, Testaccio, and Trastevere. The course combines film screenings with visits to the sites where these films were actually made. At the film sites we will engage in both analytical and creative activities designed to enhance students' appreciation for Italian film culture.\nWe will examine the ways in which Italian cinematic versions of this city compare with those that American audiences have traditionally encountered in Hollywood cinema. Throughout the course we will also reflect upon how cinema uses and organizes \"space,\" defined not only through the depiction of familiar and unfamiliar settings, but also by the boundaries of the cinematic frame. By doing so, we will develop a better understanding of the artistic choices that filmmakers make, and the expectations that they set up for their audiences on the basis of the settings that they choose for their films.\nCourse MCS 252: Contemporary Italian Culture through Film\nLiberal Studies Domain: Social, Cultural, and Behavioral Inquiry (SCBI), or Experiential Learning (EL)\nTaught by Carolina Ciampaglia\nCourse description This course focuses on contemporary filmmakers who use cinema to reflect and comment upon national issues such as organized crime, immigration and emigration, transformations of family structure, and the social problems facing younger generations. The course features presentations by film directors, producers, writers, editors, and actors, along with guest lecturers by cultural historians.\nMCS 252 is designed to provide an outline of contemporary Italian culture through the medium of cinema. Italian cinema has experienced a rebirth during recent decades, and a new generation of filmmakers from various backgrounds has made their directorial debut in the Italian film industry. Their objective has been to revitalize Italian cinema and find a new \"cinema thought\" that would reflect and comment upon the social and political concerns of a thoroughly new and diverse country, while remaining capable of dealing with the national cinematic tradition. The course examines the questions of why the medium of cinema has been serving as a particularly appropriate popular cultural vehicle for conveying the complexity of these social and political concerns.\nThe films selected for this course focus their attention on the microcosm of contemporary life in Italy and on the transformations determined by changes in global culture and history. Although they are aesthetically and thematically diverse, a number of trends are discernible in these films that characterize contemporary Italian filmmaking: the transformation of the structure of the family; Italy's immigration and emigration; the perennial problem of organized crime; and the difficulties faced by the younger generations in their attempt to integrate into society.\nScreenwriters, directors, editors, producers, actors and actresses from the Italian film industry will be invited to discuss with the students the filmmaking process and the social and political themes that they bring out in their work. Other speakers include noted cultural historians who will provide context on contemporary social issues facing Italy.\nCourse Survival Italian\nCourse description The program also features a survival Italian course that uses creative, practical and experiential teaching strategies to acclimate students to the language. No prior knowledge of the Italian language is required.\nStudents are housed in secure and comfortable apartments in Rome, convenient and accessible to the city center. All apartments have kitchen facilities, WiFi, and air conditioning.\nPlease note that your financial aid package may be different for Summer courses than for courses in the Fall, Winter and Spring terms. If you are considering a study abroad program with a Summer course, please contact the financial aid office to see how your financial aid will apply during the summer.\nIf you are planning to study abroad and do not have a passport, apply for one immediately. Some programs require students to obtain student visas. In that case, contact the country's local consulate or embassy for up-to-date instructions. As of this publication, students traveling with US passports on the Rome Film Studies program DO NOT need a visa. Please note that visa requirements can change quickly. Study Abroad will update this website to reflect changes as they become available.\nLearn basic Italian ahead of time if possible, it will be very beneficial for getting around Rome.\nKeep an eye on your belongings at all time, especially when around touristy areas/public transportation.\nCreate a budget- you will be buying food and other items just about every day. Ask around for the best local restaurants, but also know Rome has amazing street food.\nDon't be afraid to be aggressive and straightforward, you will be approached by scammers trying to give you things and others trying to sell you stuff, do not be afraid to tell them no.\nBe sure to carry a VALIDATED bus ticket with you when riding transportation, you may be fined by local police if it is not validated.\nWhen you arrive at the airport in Rome, stay away from fake taxis. Only take taxis that have a legit taxi sign and don\u2019t ever accept a ride from a \u201ctaxi driver\u201d who approaches you and asks if you need a taxi. The fixed price from FCO to Rome is \u20ac48.\nDon't be afraid to explore the city by yourself. You will be able to move at your own pace and explore whatever you desire. Just be aware of your surroundings!\nKeep up with your homework.\nDon\u2019t forget to reapply sunscreen!",

        "raw_content": "Almost All of the Plastic Produced Since 1950 Is Still Sitting in Landfills\nThe man-made material basically never breaks down, but we keep making more and more of it.\n(Photo: Seyllou/AFP/Getty Images)\nMan&apos;s legacy on Earth may be the piles of plastics we&apos;ve mass produced\u2014roughly 8.3 billion metric tons so far, according to a new study published today in Science Advances.\nIn the first ever global analysis of plastic production, researchers from universities across the United States combined production data with product lifetime information from various industries\u2014such as construction, packaging, and consumer goods\u2014to find out how much plastic humans have made, and how much of it is still around.\n\"You can&apos;t manage what you don&apos;t measure,\" says Roland Geyer, an associate professor at the University of California\u2013Santa Barbara and lead author on the new study. \"I think in order to manage plastics sustainably hopefully and stem the tide of plastics we need to know how much we&apos;re making and where it goes.\"\nAbout 30 percent of all plastics made since the middle of the 20th century are still in use, but the vast majority of plastic waste, it turns out, is still around as well. Just 12 percent has been incinerated\u2014a process that presents its own environmental and public-health perils\u2014and only 9 percent was recycled.\n\"Between 2002 and 2015 we made the exact same amount of plastic that we made between 1950 and 2002.\"\nThere were vast regional differences in recycling, however: The recycling rate in the U.S. was 9 percent, compared to 30 percent in Europe, and 25 percent in China. Since none of the most commonly used plastics are biodegradable, nearly 80 percent of the more than six billion metric tons of plastic waste generated between the 1950s (when the large-scale production of synthetic plastics really took off) and 2015 is accumulating in our landfills, ocean basins, far-flung islands, and other natural environments.\nThe fact that, over time, a plastic item will really only break down into smaller and smaller fragments is only part of the problem. The amount of plastics made every year continues to climb. \"Between 2002 and 2015 we made the exact same amount of plastic that we made between 1950 and 2002,\" Geyer says. \"That&apos;s rather stunning.\"\nIf the current trends in production, incineration, and recycling continue, there will be 12 billion metric tons of plastic waste littering the globe by 2050. It&apos;s clear we need a better management strategy. \"We think that to successfully address the plastic waste challenge that we face, we need everything that we have in our tool box, from recycling to energy recovery to use reduction,\" Geyer says. \"It shouldn&apos;t be left to the consumer alone.\"\nBut this work has forced Geyer to re-evaluate his own use of plastics and look for ways to consume less. \"It made me terribly aware of how much plastics I use,\" he says. \"It&apos;s humbling to see how difficult it is to walk the walk when it comes to using plastics.\"\nEnvironmentPrimerquick studiesPlasticConsumptionPollution\nMore Precipitation, More Problems\nDead zones in our oceans are a man-made problem, which climate change is likely to make much worse.\nIs It Time to Label Plastic a Hazardous Waste?\nThere are medical, chemical, and environmental issues associated with some pretty common plastic products.

        "raw_content": "Exploring Little Red Dot: National Gallery Singapore\nGrand as it seems, all Singaporeans should feel proud of this art and history gallery which was officially opened to the public in November 2015. If you love museum-hopping, or immersing yourself in some air of solitude, walking down (marbled) empty corridors with high ceilings, you are in for a treat when you visit this building.\nBesides the different exhibitions, the greatest piece of art is the building itself. Some exhibitions can be a little abstract, but most are thought-provoking and just by glancing at the masterpiece, you get a glimpse into the artist's state of mind right at the moment when creating it. That's the mind-blowing part of it that fascinates me the most whenever I visit museums. The exhibitions are usually there all-year round, with some seasonal new exhibitions.\nIf you think the National Gallery is similar to the other museums in Singapore, and there's no need to visit it, you are wrong. I always correlate museum-visiting with the entire experience you get out of it, not just the physical exhibitions that you see. For me, by just walking through the National Gallery during lunch time and embracing the atmosphere itself, is a therapeutic, calming and humbling experience.\nIt took me exactly two visits (each of around 3 hours) to fully explore three-quarter of the gallery, so if you are planning on conquering the gallery in a day, you've got to start early in the morning. Have I also mentioned that the gallery is humongously huge? One should never ever wear high heels or platforms to the gallery. NEVER. Imagine the nuisance you will create when click-clocking through the corridors and the wooden floors, not to mention your aching feet.\nOn top of appreciating art, history and architecture, you can take a glimpse into the prison-cells which were remained from the past when the building used to be the Supreme Court where prisoners attend their trials.\nIf you are heading there at night, proceed to the rooftop garden for a bird's eye view of the padang, Singapore flyer, Esplanade and many other iconic buildings in Singapore.\nBest thing, you won't have to fork out a single cent, like all other general musuems in Singapore, if you are a Singaporean or PR. A fee of $20 is applicable for non-Singaporeans.\n1 St. Andrew's Road, Singapore (178957)\nSun-Thurs, Public Holidays: 10am-7pm\nFri-Sat, Eve of Public Holidays: 10am-10pm",

Four police officers were injured.\nWhile we offer our profound condolences and prayers to the latest victims of our national madness, we must do more. Much more. We must ban military-style assault weapons once and for all.\nWe also must demand that our elected leaders replace their language of hate and division with words of love, unity and respect.\nPresident Trump should lead the way.\nHe has failed to do so up to now. His recent declaration that he is a \u201cnationalist\u201d was reckless and provocative, a dog whistle heard loud and clear by former KKK leader, David Duke, who congratulated Trump on his words of nationalism.\nThe statement was undoubtedly heard also by the suspect arrested for the nation-wide string of mail bombs and the campaign of terror waged against President Obama, the Clintons, Rep. Maxine Waters and other critics of President Trump.\nAs the country marches towards the edge of disaster, we can go a long way toward repairing the damage by each of us voting in the midterm elections.\nEvery vote is important on Nov. 6.",

        "raw_content": "Do you know where your main water shutoff valve is?\nIf not, you could be headed for trouble. Here\u2019s why. Water damage from pipe leaks can cause extensive damage \u2013 in the tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. And it can be so easily avoided \u2013 just by knowing where your main water shutoff valve is and then turning off the water at the first sign of trouble. So here is some advice:\nKnow where your shutoff valve is. It is usually in the basement along the wall of the front of the house.\nTag it.\nShow your family members where it is, in case you are not home and they are when a leak occurs and the water needs to be shut off.\nIf you do not know where the shutoff valve is, call a plumber, who can locate and tag it.\nOnce you know where it is, make sure you always have access to it. For example, if you are paneling your basement, make sure there is a cut out where the shutoff valve is.\nEvery few months or so, exercise the shutoff valve by turning it off and then on. If it is stuck, you can try spraying it with a lubricant such as WD-40. If that still does not work, you may need to call a plumber.\nThe valve may also leak or even break if it has not been opened for a long period of time. In that case you may need to have the valve replaced. While it may cost you a few hundred dollars to replace, that is a small price to pay to protect yourself from extensive and expensive repairs.\nThe best time to exercise your shutoff valve is on a weekday morning. That way if you have a problem, you may be able to call a plumber and schedule a repair for the same day at normal rates, rather than emergency rates.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb John Mulgrew Interview\nJohn Mulgrew Interview\nIn all your previous projects as a consulting engineer working with industry, big was beautiful. Are you turning all that on its head now?\nYes, I think so. I hope so.\nWith both the REMEDIES programme and the MMIC programme which I\u2019m involved in at CMAC, we are trying to take the learnings from industry and do things differently. The industry has lots of big underutilised assets. Lots of money is put into assets to make things that don\u2019t then make it through clinical trials. And, even where a medicine is being widely used, there is still a lot of underutilisation. Most facilities are still running down in the 30 to 40% utilisation range.\nThe advantage of continuous manufacturing technologies is the huge impact in terms of reducing the capital outlay and higher utilisation of that capital infrastructure.\nBut even though it\u2019s underutilised the wastage seems to be high?\nThat\u2019s the other thing. If you are making something in batch and it is in a large 10,000 litre vessel and there is a mistake that is a lot of wasted energy and materials. In contrast, if you have something that your manufacturing continuously and you are constantly monitoring it and adjusting things as needed to ensure the quality, then your yields are going to be a lot better and it\u2019s going to be a lot more cost-effective.\nWhat are the limits \u2013 or are the only limits the limits of imagination or chemistry?\nSo much of this is what is inside our heads and the way so many of us are just used to operating in a certain way. We all develop mental models. Sometimes that\u2019s the limiting factor in achieving the potential for innovating: you don\u2019t believe it can be done.\nAnd I think what the REMEDIES programme is showing is that actually, in a really conservative industry like ours, you can innovate, you can do some things that are going to have a real impact. Part of the issue with innovating in this industry is its very conservative nature. There is a paradigms shift going on for the industry as a whole in terms of the margins and the patent cliffs \u2013 the stars are beginning to align in a very worrying way for industry where it is either going to be able to innovate or it is going to lose out in the long run.\nWhat does all this work it mean to patients?\nWell it\u2019s funny because that can sometimes be lost when you\u2019re talking about innovation. What we are doing is a set of very complex technical things. We are not creating a new app that all the kids are going to use \u2013 it\u2019s not as simple and so clearly linked to the end user as that. You are talking about very complex chemistry, complex processes, and complex supply chains with a lot of current fixed assets and established ways of doing things. These are big hurdles to overcome and so it is very easy to lose sight of who all this ultimately supposed to be benefiting: patients.\nOne of the encouraging things is that, when you talk to a lot of people in the REMEDIES programme, you find people really do have sight of the patients. It is not just about the increased yields and decreased capital spend. Yields and costs are important things that give us the impetus to make the necessary changes and drives the search for better value for the patient.\nSo, in this complicated supply chain, who is the end-user? It depends on your perspective. In the UK, you could say it is the NHS because they are paying for the drugs, or the taxpayer because they are paying for the NHS. Or you can say \u2018no\u2019, it is the clinicians who need these drugs in order to be able to deliver effective therapies and cure people and help people improve their lives.\nOr you can say it is the patient receiving the medicine. And I suppose that\u2019s why there is such a significant challenge in innovating in this arena because it isn\u2019t as clear-cut when you ask the question \u2018who are you impacting and why?\u2019. The answer is you are impacting shareholders, the environment, clinicians, government and taxpayers, and of course the patient. A key benefit for patients from the REMEDIES programme is an increase in quality and availability of drugs.",

Then I had to reboot my son\u2019s iPod (which crashes if you try to play an MPEG layer II file on it, if you can imagine anything so lame), then I had to clear up the detritus of dinner, unload and reload the dishwasher and all. So it\u2019s only now \u2014 four hours after the end of the program \u2014 that I\u2019m free to write.\nHas the glow faded?\nSorry I\u2019ve been a bit quiet \u2014 I\u2019ve been busy dissecting an ostrich skull\nOddly, the title of this post is literally true. I know I\u2019ve quiet on this blog for the last few days, and it\u2019s because I\u2019ve been busy dissecting an ostrich skull. Admittedly, I\u2019ve also been watching a lot of the World Cup, and going through Buffy Season 2 again, not to mention obsessing over tomorrow evening\u2019s finale of Doctor Who Season 5. But the ostrich has taken up much of my non-work-time attention, and all my blogging effort.\nHere she is after a couple of simmerings, having been skinned and with her frontal bones removed, showing the brain and eyeballs from above.\nThe Pandorica Opens (11th Doctor, episode 12)\nSo after all the anticipation, the Pandorica opened on Saturday night?\nWhat was in it? Well, I can\u2019t tell you, can I? That would be completely spoily.\nWhat was my reaction? I can\u2019t tell you that, either. Because I don\u2019t know.\nPerl\u2019s *DBM_File packages: what the heck are you people thinking?\nAmong many other things, my day-job involves working on a web-based system, written in Perl, for administrating our MasterKey metasearching system. We call the admin system MKAdmin. It was developed on Debian GNU/Linux, since that\u2019s our usual production platform, but I also work on it from my Mac laptop.\nExcuse me if I rant for a moment.\nMKAdmin, until recently, used the NDBM_File module to implement a simple persistent session store \u2014 just an on-disk hashtable that maps cookie values to session structures. NDBM_File is part of the core Perl distribution.\nBut when one of our partners wanted to run it on Fedora Linux, it became apparent that in their infinite wisdom the Fedora packagers have removed the NDBM_File module from their Perl package, so MKAdmin wouldn\u2019t run. Understand: it isn\u2019t that they didn\u2019t provide an RPM package for the NDBM_File module, it\u2019s that they removed that module from the Perl package, even though it\u2019s part of the Perl core distribution.\nPosted in Frustration, Programming\nI was planning to avoid writing any more about Doctor Who except for the reviews of the last two episodes. But I was so fascinated by last week\u2019s trailer for this Saturday\u2019s episode, The Pandorica Opens, that I\u2019ve not been able to stop myself thinking about this: what is inside the Pandorica?\nAs Prisoner Zero told us right back in the first episode, \u201cThe universe is cracked. The Pandorica will open. Silence will fall.\u201d\nPosted in Good code, Programming\nThe Lodger (11th Doctor, episode 11)\nTo start with: an apology. I\u2019ve been writing so much about Doctor Who and Buffy recently that I\u2019ve slacked off a bit on the subject of programming, which was always supposed to be heart of this blog. I\u2019ll get back to that real soon, I promise. But first \u2026\nThe Lodger was written by Gareth Roberts, whose previous on Doctor Who consists of the so-so Shakespeare Code, the forgettable and very silly The Unicorn and the Wasp and a co-writer credit (with Russell T. Davies) on the truly awful Planet of the Dead. So you\u2019ll forgive me if I came to The Lodger with low expectations.\nTo my amazement, it\u2019s my favourite episode of the season so far. I laughed, I cried, I was scared, I was delighted. I felt caught off guard by this episode in a way that I\u2019ve not for most of the others. I had no real idea what to expect, so everything took me by surprise.",

        "title": "On Improvement of Requirements Engineering in the Automotive Domain",
        "raw_content": "On Improvement of Requirements Engineering in the Automotive Domain\nOver the last decades software has been the driving force for change in many domains, causing increased global competition. To stay competitive, organizations need to produce more complex products, incorporating more and more functionality, while minimizing the cost for development and production. The automotive industry is no different, the greater part of the functional growth in road vehicles is realized by electronics, and existing mechanical systems are gradually being replaced by electric systems, a large part of which is software. Increased competitive pressure has meant that automotive development and production have had to become very cost-efficient, imposing restrictions on the software produced and development methods used. Increasingly distributed development and the heterogeneity and complexity of software systems in vehicles give automotive software engineers further challenges. To be able to implement high quality products cost effectively, engineers need to establish, and be able to communicate, exactly what they must produce. Having clear realistic goals and adequate requirements is necessary to be able to deliver what the stakeholders need. This thesis presents research aimed at improving requirements engineering (RE) practices based on needs identified in the automotive industry. Addressing the need for improved communication in early phases of software development, the first contribution of this thesis is a proposed standard for the creation of use cases describing embedded systems. The suggested standard utilizes use cases at two levels of detail and comprises templates and guidelines assisting in the creation of high quality use cases. Use case modeling has gained great attention from both academia and the industry, but few empirical findings from industrial projects have been reported. Addressing this problem is a central contribution of this thesis. Data from a quality evaluation of use cases created and used in actual development at Volvo Car Corporation is provided. The most common defects in these use cases are identified and improvements to both industrial practice and academic guidelines are suggested. Finally, there is a need for continuous improvement of requirements engineering practices. Existing software process improvement frameworks are, however, either too expensive to deploy or do not take each organization\u0092s specific needs into consideration. In this thesis a step-by-step guide to iFLAP, a new packaged improvement framework holding both process assessment and improvement planning utilities, is presented. iFLAP is explicitly developed to be light weight in nature and involves practitioners throughout the improvement effort, basing improvements on the knowledge inherent in the organization to assure that its specific needs are met.\nQuality of Use Cases\n13.15 HC1, H\u00f6rsalsv\u00e4gen 14, Chalmers\nA Practitioner's Guide to Light Weight Software Process Assessment and Improvement Planning\nAutomotive use case standard for embedded systems\nICSE workshop on Software Engineering for Automotive Systems,; (2005)\n5th ACM-IEEE International Symposium On Emperical Software Engineering,; (2006)\nAn Empirical Quality Assessment of Automotive Use Cases\nIEEE International Requirements Engineering conference,; (2006)",

        "raw_content": "Burwell Addresses King v. Burwell: \u2018Seize This Opportunity\u2019\nJune 29, 2015 - The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is simply part of the fabric of America, says Sylvia M. Burwell, Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), during a White House press call mere hours after the monumental King v. Burwell decision from the Supreme Court was announced Thursday. Burwell\u2019s comments are in direct tandem with her earlier statement released Thursday morning, among those of many others, about King v. Burwell's assessment of whether or not federal premium subsidies issued to residents in states without a state-established exchange are allowable.\n\u201cOver 6 million Americans and their families will sleep easier knowing they will still be able to afford health coverage. Millions more won\u2019t have to worry about an upward premium spiral, even if they didn\u2019t buy their insurance through the Marketplace,\u201d states Burwell, confirming the overall decision as \u201cpositive.\u201d\nConsidering those states that currently choose not to accept additional federal funds, Burwell says in regard to Medicaid and Medicaid expansion, different states have different needs. Within the state of Kentucky, by 2021, Medicaid expansion will allow $30B to flow into the state\u2019s funding and budget system, says Burwell. \u201cWe think it\u2019s an important thing for states,\u201d she claims.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve seen a historic reduction in the uninsured and over 16 million more people now have coverage. The price of healthcare has risen at the slowest rate in 50 years,\u201d she maintains.\nBurwell says tax credits go to the individuals as part of their premium payments under the currently implemented system. Financing is funded via a direct bottom line approach in terms of reducing premiums for individuals and cost-sharing reductions when services are paid for, she says. \u201cFunds are targeted at individuals and their ability to have affordable healthcare,\u201d she states. \u201cThe basics of the system in place are working,\u201d she adds.\n\u201cThe ACA is part of the fabric of America. And now that the highest court in the land has upheld it twice, the time has come to turn to building on the progress that we\u2019ve made,\u201d Burwell confirms. \u201cIt\u2019s time to move forward,\u201d she adds.\nNow that the issues of subsidies are settled, Burwell says focus on other parts of the law are actively underway. Taking the next steps in affordability, quality, and access are next on the horizon, Burwell states. Moving from coverage to care is a top upcoming priority, she adds, explaining even she sometimes experiences a bit of confusion regarding her own family\u2019s copays.\nImproving how we collectively pay for and use taxpayer dollars is also of vital importance, she says, especially as the current system pays for volume versus value. There is ample effort towards transitioning to a focus on the overall wellness of the individual, she adds, confirming that substantial common ground in achieving progress exists.\n\u201cBuilding on the tools of the ACA, we have the opportunity to transform our healthcare system in unprecedented ways,\u201d Burwell says. \u201cThere is much more work to do and together, we can seize this opportunity for transformation.\u201d\nJune 26: Week That Was in Healthcare Fraud and Malpractice",

        "raw_content": "Real world articles, Miscellaneous, The Lightning Thief Musical, Productions\nThis article is about the musical. For other uses, see The Lightning Thief (disambiguation).\nThe Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is the 2017 musical adaptation based on the best-selling Disney-Hyperion novel The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan.\nThe musical was first introduced to NYC by Theatreworks USA in 2014 as part of its free theater series, a one-hour version with a smaller cast that went on to tour the country. In 2017, a brand-new production with a new score, an updated, expanded script including a second act, a larger cast, and a live band began a limited run with performances beginning on March 23, an opening set for April 4 and a last performance on May 6 on the Lucille Lortel Theatre.\nThe Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical has received positive reviews from critics. Fern Siegel, for The Huffington Post, praised the musical for its dialogue, story and cast, calling it \"a reminder that Off-Broadway is an important venue for musicals\",[1] while Raven Snook, for Time Out, describe it as \"worthy of the gods\".[2]Frank Scheck, in reviewing the production for The Hollywood Reporter, wrote that the musical \"proves far more enjoyable than the misbegotten 2010 film version or its 2013 sequel\" and \"also provides an excellent if irreverent introduction to Greek mythology that just might persuade some kids to dig deeper.\"[3]\nThe Greek gods are real, and they\u2019re ruining Percy Jackson\u2019s life. As a son of Poseidon, Percy has newly discovered powers he can\u2019t control, monsters on his trail, and he is on an epic quest to find Zeus\u2019s lightning bolt and prevent a war between the gods. Normal is a myth when you\u2019re a demigod. Based on the best-selling Disney-Hyperion novel by Rick Riordan, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is an action-packed theatrical adventure that will rock your world - and the underworld.[4]\nKRISTIN STOKES as Annabeth\nGEORGE SALAZAR as Grover and Mr. D.\nJAMES HAYDEN RODRIGUEZ as Luke, Ares, and others\nJONATHAN RAVIV as Chiron, Poseidon, and others.\nSARAH BETH PFEIFER as Clarisse, Katie Gardener, and others\nCARRIE COMPERE as Sally Jackson, Silena Beauregard, and Charon\nFor Chiron and Grover: SAM HARTLEY\nFor Clarisse and Sally: DANIELLE JAMES\nFor Percy and Luke: PETER LAPRADE\nFor Annabeth: SARAH BETH PFEIFER.\nWritten by JOE TRACZ\nChoreographed by PATRICK McCOLLUM\nMusical Direction by WILEY DEWEESE\nLighting Design DAVID LANDER\nOrchestrations by WILEY DEWEESE & ROB ROKICKI\nProduction Manager BOB DALEY\nCasting by JASON BLITMAN & GREG ULIASZ\nProduction Stage Manager LEIGH'ANN ANDREWS\nMarketing & Advertising by THE PEKOE GROUP\nConductor/keyboards: WILEY DEWEESE\nDrums/percussion: JEREMY YADDAW\nGuitar: KEVIN WUNDERLICH\nBass: DENNIS MICHAEL KEEFE\nPrologue/The Day I Got Expelled ..............................

        "raw_content": "In Massachusetts, a breathalyzer refusal (which is also known as a chemical test refusal) results in the Massachusetts RMV automatically suspending the individual\u2019s driver\u2019s license for at least 6 months.\nMelanie\u2019s Law increased the penalties for refusing a breathalyzer if you are arrested for OUI in Massachusetts. Also, there is generally no ability to get a Hardship License during the term of a Breath Test Refusal Suspension. However, in some cases, it is still possible. Contact an attorney to find out how.\nFor a 1st offense OUI, your drivers license will be suspended for 180 days for a chemical test refusal.\nFor a 2nd offense OUI, your drivers license will be suspended for 3 years for a chemical test refusal.\nFor a 3rd offense OUI, your drivers license will be suspended for 5 years for a chemical test refusal.\nFor an 4th offense OUI, your drivers license will be suspended for life for a chemical test refusal.\nFor drivers under 21 years of age, a first offense OUI breathalyzer refusal will result in a 3 year license suspension.\nThese Massachusetts Breathalyzer refusal penalties are in addition to any license suspensions imposed for the OUI charge itself. The Mass. RMV runs chemical test refusal suspensions consecutively with OUI suspensions. This means that you must first serve your breathalyzer refusal license suspension and then your OUI suspension. For example, if you are a convicted second offender who refuses the breath test, you must serve a 3 year chemical test refusal suspension and a 2 year OUI suspension, for a total of 5 years. You can apply to the Board of Appeal for a hardship license as soon as you complete the CTR suspension.\nIntentionally refusing to cooperate with police during the breath test process, such as refusing to blow enough air into the breathalyzer constitutes a breathalyzer refusal under the Massachusetts breathalyzer law.\nIf you have a breathalyzer refusal suspension issue, you should contact a suspended license lawyer for a free review of your situation. We may be able to reduce your breathalyzer refusal suspension or eliminate it completely.\nMassachusetts Chemical Test Refusal Suspension Appeal Procedures\nWithin 15 calendar days of a breathalyzer refusal suspension, the driver is entitled to a Registry hearing regarding the following 3 issues: (1) did the police officer have reasonable grounds to believe that the person had been operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor upon any way or in any place to which members of the public have a right of access or upon any way to which members of the public have a right of access as invitees or licensees, (2) was such person placed under arrest, and (3) did such person refuse to submit to such test or analysis. You are entitled to be represented by counsel at this hearing. Skilled representation can mean the difference between getting your license back or suffering through a long suspension. Contact a lawyer regarding this process.\nBreathalyzer refusal appeals are only heard at the RMV located at 136 Blackstone Street, 3rd Floor. The Registry is required by law to compile a record of this hearing. The driver appealing the license suspension will be required to submit written evidence.\nChemical Test Refusal Suspension Appeal to District Court\nIf the Registry did not restore your license, within 30 days the issuance of the Registry Hearing Officer\u2019s Decision, you have the right to file an appeal in the district court for the judicial district in which the offense occurred. Your appeal MUST be filed within 30 days. Contact an attorney if you have any questions regarding appealing a decision of the Registry. Mass. suspended license lawyers have successfully handled these appeals and legally put drivers back on the road, who would have otherwise been required to serve long and painful license suspensions.\nGeneral Massachusetts Breathalyzer Refusal Suspension Information\nIf your license was suspended because of a breathalyzer refusal and your drunk driving case was resolved in your favor, you are legally entitled to a hearing before the court which took final action on the charges for the purpose of requesting your license back. There is a rebuttable presumption in favor of restoration, unless the Commonwealth establishes by a fair preponderance of the evidence that restoration would \u201clikely endanger the public safety.\u201d\nPlease note, the Board of Appeals states that \u201call Breathalyzer/Chemical Test Refusal (CTR) revocations must be appealed through the court system (District Court) or addressed directly to the RMV. The Board does not have jurisdiction to hear CTR appeals. Also if your licensing privileges were revoked by the court, not the RMV, you must appeal to the courts.\u201d\nIn the case of RMV v. Stevens, the Superior Court imposed a 3 year CTR revocation for Stevens\u2019 refusal to take a breathalyzer test after her arrest for driving under the influence. At her Registry Hearing, Stevens was not represented by counsel and the Superior Court noted that \u201cStevens and her mother were present at the hearing. Stevens did not subpoena the police officers to the hearing, as was her right.\u201d This demonstrates why it is important to be represented by an attorney at registry hearings. Also, a careful analysis of your record and some legal research might show that you were not actually \u201cconvicted\u201d of a prior offense. This could dramatically reduce or eliminate your breathalyzer refusal suspension.\nRMV Attorney Brian Simoneau has an excellent record of success with respect to Breathalyzer Refusal Suspension cases. in many cases, he has been able to eliminate or dramatically reduce the length of Breathalyzer Refsual Suspensions, even when other lawyers have said there was nothing that could be done. Contact us today for a free review of your situation. We may be able to get your full license reinstated or get you a Mass. hardship license.",

Using a national study of 517 women business owners, the study found no significant differences existed when both factors were combined, but taken singly both generational differences and type of business context had a bearing on the use of business services. The results thus confirm earlier findings but do not extend the relationship at the multi-factor level.",

        "title": "Vogue in Space\u2026Thank you Mr. Theiss! | rosemary's pixie",
        "raw_content": "Vogue in Space\u2026Thank you Mr. Theiss!\nThis morning on the Space Channel I caught an episode of the original Star Trek series, \u201cBy Any Other Name\u201d (1968), where the Enterprise is hijacked by humanoid aliens called Kelvans so they can go home. I was kind of half watching when this gorgeous alien babe comes out of nowhere, wearing a hot backless jumpsuit with groovy boots and an intricate beehive. Her name was Kelinda and she had one of those familiar faces. Looking her up, I found out her name is Barbara Bouchet and she is actually one of Italy\u2019s top actresses, mostly because of her sexy \u201cgiallo\u201d roles in the 70\u2019s. She is still going strong and living in Italy, acting and running a few business ventures.\nGorgeous Barbara Bouchet in baby blue!\nAnd that jumpsuit!!! Wowzers! This pixie would love to wear that somewhere, if I went out at all. Of course I had to look up the costume designer and of course, he was fantastic. William Ware Theiss (1931-1992), a seasoned, award-winning costume designer for film and T.V., was known for creating the sexy Star Trek costumes, and is the namesake of the \u201cTheiss Titillation Theory\u201d. It states that \u201cthe degree to which a costume is considered sexy is directly proportional to how accident-prone it appears to be\u201d. I can imagine all the male Trekkers waiting with bated breath, hoping in vain that a boob might slip out unexpectedly as a hot alien chick grappled with Captain Kirk. His designs usually consisted of strips of fabric precariously holding a whole outfit together, or the weight of the fabric itself.\nThe infamous dress from the episode \u201cWho Mourns for Adonis\u201d\nAnother showstopper from the episode \u201cWhat Are Little Girls Made Of?\u201d. Indeed!\nI am so glad that costume designers get the recognition they deserve. The talent, vision and imagination needed to realize characters, especially in sci-fi and horror, takes a special person born with a unique creative energy. Theiss gave us innovative designs and pushed the envelope, which is why it\u2019s so fitting that he designed for Star Trek, which was a show that was light years ahead of the times.\nBarbara Bouchet on imdb: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0099054/\nCheck out www.startrekpropauthority.com for some interesting info on sets and costumes.\nSo far, the only bio available on Theiss is on Wikipedia. There are many fan sites with tidbits on him if you google his name.\nPosted in: General Comments and Updates, T.V a.k.a My Stories, Vintage Horror\nTagged: fashion, Star Trek\n\u2190 This one\u2019s for the Bros!\nI Heart The Hobbit \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Thinking About the Original American Philosophy\nThinking More \u2013 Immigration and Why It is Being Brought Down\nI still sit here thinking about the founding fathers of our country and the plan to allow so many freedoms that helped our initial population break away from their many restrictive homelands. There are so many millions of Americans, whether they are already legalized or not, who have placed an incredible amount of their own efforts on being welcomed into this country with the ability to build a life for themselves and their families, now to see that an overbearing douche-bag of a billionaire has become our president and wants to have them kicked right back out.\nIf you saw my previous post, being a part-time teacher of English as a second language there is much to concern when considering these individuals as real people. They are an input to this nation\u2019s commerce and culture, as well as the friends and family of so many who are also here legally. Just because their entrance into our nation was a battle there is no reason to consider them \u201cillegal.\u201d It seems as though the requirement that they are pulled off the street for committing an actual crime is forgotten in so many of those childish tweets produced by our president on a daily basis.\nA President Lacking the True Morals and Values of a Politician\nWhile he is also finding a reason to battle almost every personal right and freedom that were initially set up for the American population, there is something about this man who believes he is the only one allowed the complete Bill of Rights. Apparently, those rights, especially the first, only apply to one man named President Trump today in 2017.\nThere is much to consider with the daily tweets that are the freedom of speech and freedom of press that Trump has taken upon himself. According to his own terms there is no right for the actual press to present what they see in the public, or any visible stories that are presented in response to major events and tragedies that have taken place across our nation over the past eight to ten months. Only his tweets are supposed to be the honesty while every ounce of journalism or press is so-called fictitious presentation against him. There is something about this placement that makes it more of a battle than a leadership, battling a number of different groups within our nation rather than working with his staff to pull together improvements for our country as a whole.\nPrevious Previous post: Young Living Essential Oil Recently Awarded Zero Waste Classification: How They Did It\nNext Next post: What To Look for In a Life Coach",

        "raw_content": "Oui, Oui, Chez Pierre! Celebrating A Saratoga Culinary Institution\nThe Baldwins have been bringing a little bit of France to the Spa City area since 1964.\nNovember 5, 2018 by Karen Bjornland\nPia Baldwin Field preparing one of Chez Pierre's most popular desserts, Cr\u00eape Suzette. (Terri-Lynn Pellegri)\nWhenever I see that miniature Eiffel Tower on Route 9, just outside of Saratoga Springs in Gansevoort, I feel woozy with nostalgia. Three decades ago, when my French-Canadian-American husband and I landed in Saratoga, Chez Pierre was one of the first restaurants we visited. We nibbled on the country p\u00e2t\u00e9, savored the buttery escargot and oohed-and-aahed over the Chateaubriand. After our perfect meal, we posed for pictures next to the neon sign in the parking lot.\nStep into the homey yet elegant restaurant today, and the menu and atmosphere are largely the same as they were in 1964, when French-born Pierrette Baldwin and her American husband, Joe, first opened its doors. In the dining room, crisp white tablecloths are set with vintage Strawberry Hill-patterned Syracuse China, and cheery wall murals depict life in a French village. Frog legs, escargot and sweetbreads are always on the menu. \u201cThey\u2019re very popular,\u201d says Pia Baldwin Field, daughter of Pierrette and Joe. Pia and her husband, Lincoln, who\u2019s the Head Chef, are Co-owners of the French restaurant, where Beef Wellington and Veal Oscar, made from original family recipes, have been served for more than half a century. \u201cThese are classic, Old World dishes that you don\u2019t find anywhere else,\u201d says Pia. \u201cAnd everything is still cooked to order.\u201d For dessert, Mousse Au Chocolat and Cr\u00eape Suzette are favorites, along with Chef Field\u2019s light and creamy crustless French cheesecake. The names of the dishes might sound high-and-mighty to the untrained, American ear, but trust me, Chez Pierre\u2019s never been pretentious. \u201cWe\u2019re more country French,\u201d Pia says.\nChez Pierre\u2019s neon Eiffel Tower sign out front. (Terri-Lynn Pellegri)\nSince Joe Baldwin died five years ago, Pierrette or \u201cMa m\u00e8re,\u201d as her grandchildren call her, is the not-so-secret ingredient that keeps the family together\u2014and the business afloat. \u201cEvery single family member has worked here,\u201d says Pia, who\u2019s one of the Baldwins\u2019 four children. \u201cEvery grandchild, all of us and our in-laws.\u201d Joe did the cooking until 1991, when son Pierre took over as chef. In 1999, Lincoln replaced Pierre. Three of Pierrette\u2019s grandchildren are currently waiting tables. As for Pierrette, she\u2019s always been a gracious and engaging dining room presence\u2014or, as she likes to put it, \u201cthe hostess with the most-ess,\u201d the woman who every July, on Bastille Day, sings \u201cLa Marseillaise\u201d to a huge crowd.\nWhen I ask her about her upbringing in France, the 83-year-old Pierrette gets misty-eyed as she tells me about growing up in the Lorraine region during World War II, her father being imprisoned by the Nazis and the scarcity of food. Then her face brightens as she remembers how, a few years after the war, she fell in love. \u201cMy story is unbelievable. I met this GI from Glens Falls, NY.\u201d Now I\u2019m the one getting misty-eyed. My Norwegian grandfather was a Nazi prisoner, and like Pierrette, my father experienced the horrors and hunger of war in the 1940s. Chatting with Pia and Pierrette at a small table near the kitchen is such a pleasure I almost forget that I\u2019m here to interview them. The camaraderie and fine food, only eight miles from Downtown Saratoga, is an irresistible combination. \u201cI\u2019ve got people coming here 50-some years,\u201d Pierrette tells me. \u201cThey feel at home when they come here. After you come a few times, you\u2019re not a customer, you\u2019re a friend.\u201d (saratoga living\u2019s Executive Editor, Will Levith, a Saratoga native, ate his first French food here while sitting in a high chair with his parents.)\nA seasonal highlight at Chez Pierre, the restaurant\u2019s soft shell crab. (Terri-Lynn Pellegri)\nOf course, Chez Pierre has had its share of famous patrons too. In the early days, Joan Fontaine and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. dined here. Today, you might see Marylou Whitney, hockey broadcaster Barry Melrose or LPGA legend Dottie Pepper enjoying a meal here. Recent saratoga living cover star Rachael Ray, a Lake George native who\u2019s been coming to the restaurant since she was a baby, too, brings the Baldwin family a gift, such as a bottle of champagne, every Christmas. Madame Baldwin may have her moment of fame next year, as her 24-year-old grandson, Tyler, is creating a documentary about his grandmother that the family hopes to show at a local theater in 2019. \u201cHe went to France with her,\u201d says Pia, Tyler\u2019s mom. \u201cHe\u2019s so enamored with her story.\u201d I, too, am captivated by Pierrette\u2019s personal history. You can bet your frog legs that wherever the film is shown, I\u2019ll be there sitting in the dark. Look for me. I\u2019ll be the teary-eyed woman with a box of Kleenex on her lap.\nAn award-winning writer, Contributing Editor Karen Bjornland has been contributing to saratoga living for 12 years.

        "raw_content": "Daily Racing Form: Good Magic, Gronkowski Give Brown High Pair In Travers Stakes\nFinishing second in the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes, respectively, the horses hope to achieve career-defining victory Saturday.\n(Billy Francis LeRoux)\nExactly one year after beginning his career with a loss here, Good Magic will seek to achieve a career-defining victory in Saturday\u2019s Grade 1, $1.25 million Travers Stakes at Saratoga.\nTo do so, Good Magic will have to defeat, among others, Gronkowski, his stablemate who finished second in the Belmont Stakes; Wonder Gadot, who is seeking to become the first filly in 103 years to win the Travers; Catholic Boy, hoping to transfer his Grade 1-winning turf form to dirt; and Bravazo, a tough-as-nails colt who stands now as the only active 3-year-old to have competed in all three Triple Crown races.\nAt 11:35 a.m. on the 2017 Travers card, Good Magic finished second as the 3-5 favorite to Hazit in a 6 1/2-furlong maiden race. Good Magic has competed exclusively in graded stakes since, winning the Breeders\u2019 Cup Juvenile, Grade 2 Blue Grass and Grade 1 Haskell while finishing second to Justify in the Kentucky Derby and fourth to that eventual Triple Crown winner in the Preakness after dueling with him for more than a mile.\nGood Magic, coming off a visually impressive three-length victory in the Haskell at Monmouth, will likely go favored in the 1 1/4-mile Travers, and will break from post 9 under Jose Ortiz.\n\u201cI knew early on this horse was special, and over the course of his development I learned he\u2019s extremely tough, extremely durable,\u201d trainer Chad Brown said. \u201cSo, I\u2019m not surprised he\u2019s held up, but I am relieved.\u201d\nWhile Good Magic has had a busy schedule, Gronkowski, also trained by Brown, enters the Travers having raced once in 21 weeks. That was the Belmont Stakes, where after a slow break from the gate while making his U.S. debut Gronkowski rallied to finish second, 1 3/4 lengths behind Justify.\nAfter an ankle injury kept him off the work tab for a month, Gronkowski has delivered a series of workouts at Saratoga that has Brown excited to see what he can do in the Travers.\n\u201cI feel Gronkowski is coming into the race in fine condition,\u201d said Brown, who is seeking his first Travers victory in his fifth appearance. \u201cI feel he\u2019s moved forward off his race in the Belmont. If he has moved forward, he\u2019s one of the main contenders no matter who\u2019s in the race.\u201d\nCatholic Boy won the Remsen at 2 and had tried the Triple Crown trail before a bleeding episode in the Florida Derby knocked him out of consideration for the Kentucky Derby. He has come back with two solid victories in graded stakes on turf, and with a new forwardly placed running style that trainer Jonathan Thomas will likely employ on Saturday. Catholic Boy will be ridden by Javier Castellano, who has won the Travers a record five times.\n\u201cI\u2019d like to break away from there running and see what develops,\u201d Thomas said. \u201cObviously, we\u2019re in great hands with Javier. Basically, it\u2019s going to boil down to his instincts and what he wants to do.\u201d\nWonder Gadot is the first filly to run in the Travers since Davona Dale in 1979. A filly hasn\u2019t won the Travers since Lady Rotha in 1915. Wonder Gadot is coming off victories against males in the Queen\u2019s Plate and Prince of Wales Stakes, the first two legs of the Canadian Triple Crown. Her best races have come at nine furlongs or farther, and trainer Mark Casse expects her to be in contention early under Irad Ortiz Jr.\n\u201cYou have to get her into the race a little bit early, not let speed get too far away,\u201d Casse said. \u201cShe doesn\u2019t have a big turn of foot, it\u2019s more of a big, continuous motion. You don\u2019t want to leave her too much to do.\u201d\nTenfold, who was up close in winning the Jim Dandy, and longshot Trigger Warning, who set the pace in the Indiana Derby before getting run down by Axelrod, are other potential pace factors.\nTenfold and Vino Rosso, third in the Jim Dandy, are sort of the forgotten souls of this Travers. Tenfold shied from something in the stretch before regaining a straight course to win the Jim Dandy by three-quarters of a length over Flameaway.\n\u201cWe\u2019re freakishly concerned about whatever it is he ducked from on the inside,\u201d said trainer Steve Asmussen, who seeks his first Travers victory with his fifth starter. \u201cWe cannot do that again and expect to have any success against a field as talented as this.\u201d\nAsmussen will also start the longshot Meistermind.\nVino Rosso, the Grade 2 Wood Memorial winner, ran spottily in the Jim Dandy, perhaps owing to moisture in the track. The track should be dry and fast Saturday. His trainer, Todd Pletcher, has won the Travers twice.\nTrainer Dale Romans won the 2015 Travers with Keen Ice, who upset the Triple Crown winner American Pharoah. On Saturday he sends out King Zachary, who won the Grade 3 Matt Winn Stakes at Churchill Downs and finished fourth in the Indiana Derby, a race in which the horse bled, Romans said.\nMendelssohn is looking to replicate the performance that made him an 18 1/2-length winner of the United Arab Emirates Derby. He has not run well since.\nThe Travers is the highlight of a 13-race card that begins at 11:35 a.m. Eastern and includes five other Grade 1 stakes \u2013 the Sword Dancer, H. Allen Jerkens, Personal Ensign, Forego, and Ballerina \u2013 as well as the Grade 2 Ballston Spa.\nThe Sword Dancer and Travers will be televised live on NBC in a two-hour broadcast beginning at 4 p.m.",

        "title": "Semiconductor Engineering .:. UPF 3.0 Moves Toward Ratification",
        "raw_content": "Home > Low Power-High Performance > UPF 3.0 Moves Toward Ratification\nUPF 3.0 Moves Toward Ratification\nAdditions include system-level power analysis and modeling, component-level modeling, improvements for transition states, better hierarchy.\nUPF (Unified Power Format) 3.0 \u2014 the fourth incarnation in 10 years \u2014 is moving closer to the IEEE ballot process.\nErich Marschner, verification architect at Mentor Graphics and vice chair of the IEEE 1801 working group, explained the working group is as close as possible to being on schedule for getting the document completed and ready to go on time. And while there are items still being working on, the five areas that are already in the draft document are as follows.\n1. Addressing known issues with UPF2.x, which are captured in the Mantis bug database.\n2. Adding an Information Model (IM) to support query functions and package UPF. This defines what information is captured by UPF specifications, including objects and their attributes, and relationships among objects. The IM defines general API functions for accessing such information. It maps general API functions to HDL, Tcl bindings for both HDL for package UPF (for writing testbench code for simulation), and Tcl for query functions (for debugging power intent as it is applied to the design).\n3. Successive refinement methodology that concerns how UPF is written and worked with. The concept originally was promoted in UPF 2.0 by John Biggs at Arm, coming from an IP-centric perspective. Marschner explained the basic idea is that when you use an IP block in a power-managed/power-aware design, you have to use it in a very particular way; otherwise it won\u2019t function correctly. This has to do with how you carve it up into power domains, which registers and which state elements get their values saved, and how they have to be saved together or separately. There are constraints on how you can use an IP block in a power-managed design. ARM came up with the idea that you can specify constraints in UPF that would apply to an IP block. Then you should be able to check those constraints are met when you use that IP block and other IPs in an IP-based system, and do the verification of the power management architecture at an abstract level where you\u2019re dealing with technology-independent information such as power domain partitioning and control logic. Then, only after that\u2019s done, you can move on to providing the implementation detail for how you\u2019re going to build this, what libraries you\u2019re going to use, how you\u2019re going to build up the supply distribution, where you\u2019re going to put the isolation cells, and then verify in the context of technology-specific implementation detail.\n\u201cThe basic idea is to recognize that power intent is incrementally developed as smaller parts of the design get composed into larger parts, and also that you want to verify things incrementally so that you don\u2019t put off verifying everything until the end\u2014where you might find that you completely architected your design the wrong way because you violated some fundamental constraint,\u201d he explained.\nWhile this was conceived in 2009, it wasn\u2019t fully understood at that time, Marschner noted. \u201cIn the meantime, we\u2019ve had a lot of experience \u2014 especially ARM \u2014 using this methodology with UPF 2.0 capabilities. And as a result we\u2019ve had some feedback about very specific things like how you should use the commands in UPF at the different stages for specifying constraints on IP, specifying system configuration in an implementation- or technology-independent way, and how you partition the UPF so that you can accomplish this successive refinement and successive verification steps in the way it was envisioned originally.\u201d\nOne aspect of successive refinement is that early on the engineer may know what the power states of an object are at a fundamental level, but as the system is developed the power state definitions need to evolve for the objects in a system and the composition of the system as the design goes from small, simple objects to more integrated and complex objects.\nAs a result, there was work done to look at how power states are defined in UPF in order to support that evolution in an ideal way. A large part of that has to do with the fact that there are places where power states need to be defined abstractly, and others in a very specific, detailed way. This leads to the fourth activity area.\n4. Power States/Transition refinements activities clarify the relationship between and use of mutex and non-mutex power states to enable identification of unique power state at any time and allow for abstraction and refinement in the definition of power states. This also defines a new kind of refinement that allows for branching refinement\nas well as supports power state definitions required for power modeling.\n5. IP/component based power modeling extensions for energy-aware system-level design. Marschner said several years ago it was decided to extend beyond what UPF was doing at the time, which was RTL and below, and start thinking about power intent at the system level. \u201cWhat we chose to do \u2014 and there are several system-level power activities (http://semiengineering.com/an-update-on-the-ieee-1801-2013-unified-power-format-standard/) now within the IEEE \u2014 the part we chose to focus on within 1801 was modeling the power consumption of a component such that you could take the component power consumption model for each component in the system and use that as the basis for evaluating the power consumption of the whole system. We are exclusively not trying to focus on modeling the system as whole. We are focusing on component-level models, but we have to model the power consumption of the component so that it can be used in system level power analysis.\u201d\nWhat that essential comes down to is taking the definition of power states, which existed in UPF all along, and which has been refined over time, adding to it the capability to express the power consumption in terms of a function. That essentially is the function of system parameters such as temperature or voltage of the rails involved, or clock frequency, or even event frequency activity rate, for example.\u201cThis is done so that for any given component,\u201d he said. \u201cWe can say, \u2018Suppose I have a component that can be in one of five different power states at any given time.\u2019 We can say that the power consumption for this power state is XYZ based on these parameters, and we can define the function that will call out to some implementation of the function somehow, might look up data in the database, it might compute based on some proprietary formula. In any case, it would return power consumption for this object in this state, and that power number then could be rolled up the hierarchy of the design or rolled up the hierarchy of supply distribution back to the primary supplies of the design to allow the power consumption for a particular object to be estimated, and accumulated across the design in whatever way the user wants. This basically allows EDA tool developers to build systems where we can model a system, use UPF power models for the components of the system. And then, under some scenario, whether it\u2019s a simulated scenario or a statically defined sequence of operations, compute the power consumption of the different elements in the system over time. We can display that power consumption in some graphic form so the user can get a sense of where the consumption goes way high or what the average power consumption is or what the bottlenecks are in how the system works.\u201d\nThis involved expanding UPF to work with SystemC because it deals with abstract, transaction-level models at this point \u2014 and then adding in all the power functions.\n\u201cThis is also one of the touch points with some of the other standards activities: IEEE P2416 is about characterizing power consumption for components, and that activity may well provide information that\u2019s used in these power expressions for the power states of an object. Then, IEEE P2415 is about the interaction between software and hardware, so it may end up using the power states that we define for power consumption models of a component as part of its predictive capabilities for software,\u201d Marschner added.\nJohn Decker, solutions architect at Cadence, pointed out there are still ideas being shared between CPF and UPF, but stressed that there are some new features in UPF that will help designers. One is getting a firmer concept of hierarchical design. \u201cToday, UPF doesn\u2019t have much of a strong hierarchy concept \u2014 it\u2019s a black box model \u2014 but when we\u2019re using this in actual design flows, there\u2019s a lot of bottom up implementation flows while most of the verification is done top down.\u201d\nHe noted the 2.0 spec leaves a lot of opportunities for that top-level power intent to change what the lower-level block would see if you did it in isolation. There is a disconnect between the two, and that can cause a lot of functional problems. \u201cOne of the big concepts is a much stronger hierarchy concept so you can define a block to say, \u2018I\u2019m going to implement this block outside in its own context; even in a top level flow, I\u2019m going to treat it in the same exact way.\u2019 That\u2019s going to be a real boon for a lot of design application flows.\u201d\nOf course, another big area is the move to enabling system-level power analysis. From Decker\u2019s perspective, this is going to start enabling a little bit more standardized way of modeling some of the system-level power. \u201cIt\u2019s the first step. It\u2019s not the whole picture but at least it\u2019s moving in the right direction.\u201d\nYatin Trivedi, director of standards and interoperability programs at Synopsys, pointed out the continued evolution of UPF shows some important things. \u201cThe most important thing is, as one would imagine, why would you enhance a standard? You would enhance a standard because there is a community that is using it. The community has vested interest in keeping this standard growing, keeping it evolving. Many standards reach a stage and then something else has overtaken it and therefore people lose interest. The fact that it is going through another revision means people are looking at it and saying, \u2018Here is a base on which I can do more things, so let me add those.\u2019 The most important thing is that the community has interest.\u201d\nEchoing Decker\u2019s statements, Trivedi said the second significant thing that\u2019s happened with UPF 3.0 is that the features that were covered in UPF 1.0, 2.0 and 2.1, were at the lower level in the sense that there was essentially nothing for describing an IP block\u2019s power intent and therefore, how a simulator, synthesis tool or DFT tool would make use of it. \u201cIn that context, we have now come up another level, and that\u2019s the significant feature of P1801 that\u2019s about to go to ballot\u2014the system-level power (SLP). If you think about system-level power from a hardware engineer\u2019s perspective, they are looking at it as how to model the IP blocks, which themselves are fairly complex, and pass it down to the system-level designer so that all the power requirements and power consideration can be consistent across that SoC integration which includes IP blocks and some homegrown logic.\u201d\nHe also made note of some of the users in the IEEE working group that participated, including ARM, Intel, Qualcomm, Broadcom and Microsoft, which are considered core members and are quite vocal and active.\nInterestingly, Bernard Murphy, CTO of Atrenta, noted that the company recently completed a customer survey of SoC needs, among whom the topic of SLP came up frequently as an emerging must-have priority. \u201cYou can estimate implemented power today at the RTL or gate-level, but only for a tiny load sample, which is no help in estimating energy drain under realistic loads. That\u2019s what you need in order to know how long the battery will last. And you definitely can\u2019t figure out peak-power which affects temperature and therefore reliability. All you can do is to build silicon, measure real power while running software and hope you are close to spec. If not, you have to go back and re-design the power intent.\u201d\nHe explained this obviously is not an ideal approach to power optimization. \u201cA better approach would be to model power reasonably accurately while the design is still fluid enough to allow for power intent changes. Gate-level and RTL power modeling need massive activity files detailing changes on each node. System-level models could work with much smaller amounts of data, making them much more effective with more abstracted functional models (spreadsheets or TLM for example) or with hardware modeling (emulation or perhaps even prototyping).\u201d\nThat said, he expects SLP models to start appearing from the IP vendors first. \u201cThey already need a more standardized way to communicate power behavior to their customers, especially for architectural modeling. It will take more time for modeling to move to in-house legacy IP. The problem there will be lack of accessible / current expertise to understand the underlying functionality in sufficient detail to build those models. I expect this will drive new automation to ease model development.\u201d\nMark Milligan, vice president of marketing at Calypto agreed a significant addition in UPF 3.0 is system-level power modeling. \u201cPower states of a system used be inferred from various sources, which can be explicitly defined now using UPF 3.0. First of all, this makes interpretation of states and transitions uniform across the tools. We think UPF 3.0 is an evolutionary change. We think verification tools will be immediately affected by this change, but implementation methodologies will take time as designers become comfortable with UPF3.0. Overall, it is a needed change to the industry.\u201d\nTags: ARM Atrenta Broadcom Cadence Calypto Intel Mentor Graphics Microsoft power format Qualcomm Synopsys UPF 3.0",

Whilst he was in India he felt very unwell, and when he got home 3 days later, within 10 minutes my Step-mum Mandy was calling the ambulance.\nDad was taken into Peterborough City Hospital, his stats were all over the place and he was struggling to breathe. After 24 hours he was taken into CCU and put onto support. This was when we were told that Dad had developed a serious blood infection called Sepsis.\nWhilst still on the support and after a week of no improvement, he was taken to Papworth Hospital. Here they planned to operate and put drains in his chest, so that they could drain the infection. Before they could operate we were told he needed to be put onto an ECMO machine, as he wasn\u2019t strong enough to survive. After 5 days at Papworth he was taken back to the CCU in Peterborough.\nDuring his time in hospital, he was extubated three times, which caused the nerves in his throat to be damaged, and he wasn\u2019t able to eat or drink.\nAfter a little more time spent in hospital, he became strong enough to be taken off the support and breathe on his own.\nThankfully not only did he recover from Sepsis, but after 6 months he was able to eat and drink again.\nSepsis is a life threatening condition, and is not as well known about as it should be.\nI am so lucky to have a Dad as strong and remarkable as he has been, and it\u2019s amazing to see he is back to his old self! We will always be grateful to all our family and friends for their support!\nI have decided to run the Royal Parks Half Marathon to raise money for the UK Sepsis Trust!",

        "raw_content": "Hungarian professor to use Visual History Archive to counter rampant xenophobia\nHungarian professor Ildik\u00f3 Barna has a difficult job: teaching tolerance in a country where xenophobic policies are a reflection of popular opinion.\nNow, the associate professor of sociology E\u00f6tv\u00f6s Lor\u00e1nd University in Budapest is using USC Shoah Foundation\u2019s Visual History Archive as a complementary tool for creating a suite of university courses that highlight the dangers of prejudice and hate.\n\u201cWe are living in a world which is unfortunately full of hate,\u201d Barna said during a recent talk with Institute staff. \u201cAll the things around us \u2013 I don\u2019t know where it will lead, but it resembles dark things.\u201d\nBarna was the 2018-19 International Teaching Fellow at USC Shoah Foundation\u2019s Center for Advanced Genocide Research. The fellowship brought her to the Institute in Los Angeles for a week in August to design ways to integrate testimonies of Holocaust survivors into her classes.\n\u201cI would really would like to deal with how hate speech \u2013 which is so immense nowadays \u2013 can escalate into acts of violence,\u201d she said.\nDuring her Aug. 16 talk at the Institute, Barna addressed the nationalistic fervor and xenophobia that swept populist Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n into a third term in April.\nThe situation, she said, is \u201cnot black or white.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s not a dictatorship in the old sense,\u201d she said. \u201cThere\u2019s free elections. There are some newspapers which are for the opposition and so on. But it\u2019s still not a democracy. This is, what is called in scholarly literature, a hybrid regime or electoral authoritarianism.\u201d\nAlthough the current situation in Hungary is more complex than many outsiders understand, it\u2019s a tense situation, she said, and a good time for students to pay more attention to where the slippery slope of hatred can lead \u2013 and where it has indeed taken their own country.\nThe Archive, Barna said, offers a way to help students connect the past to the present, and the past to their own localities. But stories of survivors also highlight lessons that are more universal. You don\u2019t have to be a hero to be an upstander, for instance.\n\u201cIt can even be just a smile,\u201d she said. \u201cOr giving comfort to someone who is persecuted. It\u2019s not just about risking your life.\u201d\nBarna plans to use the Archive for several courses: on the history of the Holocaust in Hungary; on past and present antisemitism; on genocide; and on hate crimes and hate speech.\nOn the matter of Hungary\u2019s current political climate, she noted that despite restrictive measures such as the physical closure of Hungary\u2019s southern border \u2013 and despite the virtual absence of immigrants in the country -- the fear of immigrants in Hungary has been rampant.\nShe cited a recent survey in which 94 percent of the Hungarian population said they would allow only a few or no people from poor non-European countries into Hungary. More than 60 percent said they would admit zero.\nThose figures were high \u2013 but significantly less so \u2013 a few years ago. She attributes the difference to the spread of propaganda.\nHowever, Hungarian universities have begun to widely embrace the Visual History Archive. In recent weeks, more than 40 Hungarian universities, museums and libraries subscribed to the Archive. The en masse sign-up contributed to the largest-ever quarterly jump in the number of access sites to the Archive.\nBarna said some of her students buy into the xenophobic ideas that are currently in vogue.\n\u201cThe most important thing is to make them talk about their concerns, thoughts, or even prejudices,\u201d she said. \u201cThis gives the educator the opportunity to do something about it.\u201d\nOnce, in a class for future police officers about hate crimes, some of the students began to \u201ctest\u201d her by bringing up stereotypes about the Roma, often referred to as gypsies.\n\u201cI was completely sweaty,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was maybe the hardest experience in my whole life.\u201d\nThe stakes felt high: In Hungary, if the police don\u2019t make a notation about a possible hate crime in an initial report, the assailant will never be charged accordingly. It was a nerve-wracking experience, but in the end, some of the students seemed to come around. Two of them even wrote their theses on hate crimes. It felt like a door had opened.\nBarna said she doesn\u2019t expect her classes by themselves to change people.\n\u201cI just want to make them think,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd if I succeed in making them think, then can come something more.\u201d\nSixth Annual Teaching with Testimony Master Teacher Program Kicks off in Budapest",

        "raw_content": "Israel's National Health System, Great!\nOf course nothing is perfect, but in all honesty, I must say that the Israeli health system is one of the best. Whenever I talk to people who live in the United States about what goes on there, I'm so grateful that my husband and I live here in Israel.\nWhether employed full-time, part-time or not at all, Israelis get to choose which of a handful or so \"Sick Funds\" to join. New immigrants are automatically accepted, no matter what their age or health status. When I had brought my very elderly father here three and a half years ago, I had no problem integrating him into the local clinic of the Clallit Sick Fund. The doctor and nurse invested time to discover which Israeli medicines matched those American ones he had been taking. In some cases the Israeli equivalents seemed much better. We paid extra so he'd be covered for more than the minimum, which came in handy when he needed new hearing aids, which we purchased at a discount.\nNot long ago, when the doctor prescribed acupuncture for my shoulder injury, it was discounted by the Kupat Cholim Le'umit sick fund, because we pay for the \"gold\" level. Various \"over the counter\" drugs are discounted for us, too, in the sick fund pharmacies.\nThe Nefesh B'Nefesh site has a good summary of Israeli health care.\nEvery resident can choose one of the four health plans (Clalit, Leumit, Maccabi and Meuhedet) regardless of age or health state. The plans provide an identical basic basket of services, as required by law, but availability of services may differ by location. These include doctor visits, diagnostic and laboratory services, hospitalization including births and discounts on prescription medications. Note that not every type of service, treatment or prescription is available in the basket. It is possible to purchase supplementary insurance (Bituach Mashlim) from your health plan in order to receive wider coverage. Differences between the plans may exist in these supplementary insurances. See Kupot Cholim (Health Plans). (complete article)\nThe government makes changes annually. Here is the latest:\nThe Cabinet today (Sunday, 30 December 2012), unanimously approved an approximately NIS 300 million expansion of the health basket, pursuant to the proposal of Deputy Health Minister Yaakov Litzman. The expansion will take effect at the beginning of next month.\nThe 2013 health basket was formulated by the Public Committee on the expansion of the Health Basket chaired by Shaare Zedek Medical Center Prof. Jonathan Halevy.\nThe 2013 health basket will focus on preventive care: For the first time, over 50,000 8th-grade girls will be inoculated against cervical cancer. Innovative drugs for the treatment of breast and ovarian cancer will be added including Afinitor, Perjeta and Avastin, as well as an innovative drug for treating prostate cancer, Zytiga. The basket will also include nuchal translucency testing and advanced pregnancy tests for various genetic diseases.\nCommunicated by the Prime Minister's Media Adviser\nOf course, there are sometimes difficulties like in any bureaucracy, but that is the same for the entire world. Nothing is perfect. My sister's reports on the challenges she faces taking care of our parents' medical needs in the United States are horrifying. The medical needs of the elderly make for very complicated decisions.\nObamacare may have solved some problems, but certainly not all.\nLabels: healthcare, Israel, kupat cholim\nLatma's \"Little Brother, \"A Hebrew's Word,\" and Some Interesting Facts About Bibi and Bennett\nHere's a quick moving, fast talking summary of what has been happening in Israeli politics on A Hebrew's Word.\nOne thing for sure, that Bibi's outbursts prove the adage, \"I don't care what they say about me, just make sure they spell my name right!\" Probably this saying originated by P. T. Barnum.\nLikud Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has done more for the NRP-Jewish Home's Naftali Bennett than their supporters' greatest dreams. He has given them lots of free publicity and name recognition. OK, it's possible that it's all in their plan, something Bibi and Bennett have cooked up in their secret kitchen. I wouldn't put anything past our wily Prime Minister.\nDid we have warning when Bibi and Mofaz eloped?\nDid we have warning when Bibi and Lieberman eloped?\nBennett and Bibi are old political bedfellows. Bennett was chief of staff to Netanyahu as leader of the opposition, from 2006 to 2008. They are both totally bilingual, Hebrew-English, and could have made successful careers for themselves any place in the world. They have a lot in common but are a generation apart. Bennett is young enough to be Bibi's son.\nThe leaking of Likud support at this stage of the campaign reminds me what what happened in the previous Knesset campaign when Avigdor Lieberman, Yisrael Beiteinu, began making very Right wing statements. Suddenly his party jumped in the polls at the expense of the Likud. Netanyahu, most probably, decided to try a new version and made a deal with him to take advantage of the same trick/technique. The two parties merged prior to the elections, but the Left side-swiped them by suddenly having the Left-controlled justice department courts to threaten indictment of Lieberman for rumors/suspicions over a decade old. That has distracted Lieberman, and he hasn't been able to play his role in the \"good cop, bad cop\" scenario/script he and Bibi had written.\nBennett has now started playing the Lieberman role from five years ago and simultaneously take votes from Likud and Otzma L'Yisrael, the Eldad & Ben-Ari party. The big major difference between NRP aka Bayit Yehudi and Otzma L'Yisrael is that Bayit Yehudi will do pretty much anything to be in the cabinet/coalition while Otzma L'Yisrael has principles and not dreams of a Volvo aka cabinet seat and perks. So if principles are what you want from your MK, then vote Otzma L'Yisrael.\nPolitics is my favorite game, never dull. We still have just over three weeks to go until elections. Hold on to your hats....\nLabels: Avigdor Lieberman, Bibi Netanyahu, Israeli Elections, Latma, Likud, Naftali Bennett, Otzma L'Yisrael\nLatma Makes More Sense Than Political Speculations/Predictions in The News\nPeriodically I have to remind everyone that the polls aren't the \"last word;\" the elections are. Polls can show trends and potential but no more than that. And after over forty years of observing the Israeli political scene from up close --we made aliyah in 1970-- I can say for certain that Prime Ministers generally surprise the public with their cabinet appointments.\nThe \"pundits\" are again predicting that Vice Prime Minister Moshe (Bogie) Ya'alon will be Defense Minister. Bibi didn't choose him for that position in the outgoing government and he shouldn't count his chickens this time either. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu loves to surprise us. The only thing I would feel safe predicting is that there will be surprises.\nIn the meantime, watch the latest Latma.\nWhich \"New Year\" is Yours?\nCalendar wise, I guess I'm very schizophrenic combining both the Jewish and Christian calendars. They both frame my life, give it structure. I write checks and make appointments on the Christian Calendar, but I celebrate only Jewish Holidays and all family birthdays are according to the Jewish Calendar.\nHaving been raised in a secular Jewish family in New York, I really didn't know anything but the Christian calendar. And yes, it should be called the that, the \"Cristian Calendar.\" It's based on mainstream Christian belief. We did celebrate various, though not all, Jewish holidays, which fell when they fell according to the Jewish Calendar. As a child, I was totally oblivious to the fact that the two calendars weren't the same.\nThis coming week is January 1, 2013, the first day of the next year of the Christian Calendar.\nThe two calendars are very different, and they aren't the only calendars in the world.\nThe Christian Calendar is solar, based on the fact that the solar year, including its four seasons, is 365 days (and one quarter 1/4) long. Every four years, an extra day is added to keep it on track.\nThe Jewish Calendar is a lunar calendar of twelve months, which add up to less than 365 days. So it makes up the shortfall of days by adding an extra month every few years according to a very accurate formula.\nI'd say that the most crucial difference is a religious-cultural one. I'm referring to how people of the Jewish and Christian religions celebrate their new year.\nThe Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashannah is a very spiritual, reflective time. It's a two day holiday of prayers and calls to wake up and repent. The month before Rosh Hashannah is Elul, a time when we are supposed to prepare ourselves for a religious, spiritual, theological inventory of sorts. That's what \u05ea\u05e9\u05d5\u05d1\u05d4 Teshuva, Repentance is all about. And this process culminates in Yom Kippur, the final Judgement.\nWe need all of our faculties to do this right. The Christian New Year is a totally different ball game. It has evolved into mindless drunkenness and worse. While we Jews, work hard to heighten our awareness of our sins and apologize to G-d, promising to change ourselves for the better on our New Year, a few months later, on the night of December 31, as the clock strikes midnight and it becomes January 1, people frequently are oblivious to what they are really doing. Their senses are confused by the liquor and worse they are imbibing. I don't understand the point of this at all. It's not my mentality and no longer my culture.\nLabels: Jewish Calendar, repentance, Rosh Hashannah, teshuva\nIsrael and the Christmas Spirit\nC'mon, let's face it. Christmas season was not a bad time of year for most committed Jews growing up in America. We sincerely wished friends and neighbors \"happy holidays\", took in the sights and sounds, and enjoyed witnessing the generous spirit of the season.\nMost importantly, we learned, as Jews, to walk and draw defined lines between faiths with dignity.\nYet even with those positive memories, once in Israel, many of us found the absence of Christmas and Easter trappings and culture to be incredibly liberating. A sense of peace and joy came over us as we settled-in as Jews in our own land, with our own heritage and unadulterated holidays taking center stage.\nBut in recent years, the Christmas culture is making determined inroads in Israel. How do Jews in a Jewish and democratic state, which depends heavily upon pro-Israel Christian tourism, welcome non-Jewish visitors during their holiday season without compromising the foundations and principals of our faith?\nWell, based on the number of faux pas rung up in the last couple of weeks by our government representatives, activists and writers, we could do a lot better. JewishIsrael looks at an embarrassing and worrying situation...more\nThe Likud Needs Otzma LeYisrael in the Knesset Opposition\nFor those of us who are concerned with the future of the State of Israel and Jewish Civil and Religion Rights in the entire Land of Israel, it is of the utmost importance that there will be a Right wing parliamentary opposition. Since the only Right wing, pro-Jewish Rights in the entire Land of Israel Party that is campaigning to be part of the coalition is Otzma LeYisrael, then we must do our best to make sure the party gets the required votes.\nMagnet toy: Newton's Cradle\nI think of it as physics, the laws of magnets.\nEvery magnet, whether large or small, has exactly two poles. At these poles is where the magnetic strength of the magnets is the strongest. Each pole is either north or north-seeking or south or south-seeking. Like objects (such as two north poles of two magnets) repel each other. Unlike objects (such as a north pole of one magnet and a south pole of another magnet) attract each other.\nRead more: The Laws of Magnets | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/about_5417270_laws-magnets.html#ixzz2GG7O6nfc\nThe opposition parties in Israeli government have a lot of power. They function as a check/balance to make sure the government stays in the middle. In Israel prior to the 1977 elections, the Leftist Labor Party ruled. Menachem Begin's Herut and then GaHaL on the Right of the political spectrum kept them in check and prevented the destruction of Jewish communities. The Leftist Labor could only go so far, because there was a strong Right Opposition.\nOnce Begin and his Likud were voted into power, the strong opposition was on the Left, and that is one of the reasons that the Israeli \"Center\" has pulled so far to the Left. So called Right Likud Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's policies vis-\u00e0-vis the Arabs is far to the Left of what was once the Left here.\nWhen Begin made his Peace agreement with Egypt's Sadat, there were a few breakaway MK's and others who formed Tichya and were a vociferous opposition for a short while. Then they made the mistake of joining the cabinet and opposing Rabbi Meir Kahane's more extreme Right party from running. They didn't pass the minimum vote threshold in the following elections. The Moledet Party, further to the Right, did. On the whole, over the past thirty-five years since Likud won its first election, the Right Opposition has been weaker than the Left.\nfrom the previous elections\nYou can see the political spectrum from Left to Right\nIn a few weeks Israel is again having Knesset Elections. Israelis do not vote for a Prime Minister. We vote for parties running for seats in the Knesset, our parliament. Once results are in, the Israeli President polls the parties to see which party's \"number one\" has the best chance of negotiating a coalition government. Then the President asks that MK to attempt to form a government.\nRecent polls indicate that the Likud will get the largest number of votes/seats, so Netanyahu will most probably continue as Prime Minister. Some of the other parties are campaigning that they either hope to make a deal with him or promise that they won't join the government under any circumstances. Most of the Left wing parties are claiming that they would not work with Netanyahu, but that could just be their campaign, until he ups his offers and reminds them that they would just be forcing him to give the NRP aka Bayit Yehudi (Jewish Home) Party more power.\nRecent polls keep showing that the NRP is getting more and more support. Unfortunately, they and the Likud are trying to campaign in certain Right circles by telling people not to vote Otzma LeYisrael, because Otzma LeYisrael won't pass the minimum threshold. And if, G-d forbid, such a thing happens, there won't be a Right Opposition. All of the ideological/political pull will come from the Right. It will also mean that Netanyahu will look much further to the Right than he really is, which will cause him to move further Left as he chases the Center in that direction. I wish I could make up an animation of that...\nLabels: Israeli Elections, Knesset, Otzma L'Yisrael\nRain, Do We Deserve the Blessings? Has It Really Rained \"Enough?\"\nThe media here in Israel has been reporting excellent rainfall here in Israel, a great start to the winter.\nDecember 2012 continued to break precipitation records over the weekend, as heavy rainfall across central and northern Israel filled the Sea of Galilee, swelled rivers and streams and brought 60-70 centimeters of snow to the summit of Mount Hermon.\nThe Sea of Galilee has now seen the largest December increase in the last 20 years*, rising 18 centimeters over the weekend. The Israel Water Authority estimated that the level would rise a further 7 centimeters on Sunday from runoff, bringing the total level to 212 meters below sea level.\nThe current mark is still an immense three meters, however, below the lake\u2019s \u201cupper red line\u201d \u2013 208.9 meters below sea level \u2014 at which the Degania Dam is opened to allow an increased flow into the Jordan and prevent the lake from flooding the city of Tiberias and other towns along its shore.\nIn actuality, I don't think this amount is all that exceptional. We have had insufficient rain for the past twenty years. This year's rain isn't all that much compared to what we used to get in a normal year. It's just after a drought of many years, it seems like a lot. I remember when heavy rains on Succot weren't rare, and you couldn't make outdoor plans for Chanukah.\nOur weather is usually according to the Jewish Calendar, and this is one of the years when the Jewish dates come earlier on the goyish/Christian calendar. That means that December is more like late-December early January and should be compared to that time of the year. And when we do that, I don't think the amount of rain and the height of the Kinneret are all that exceptional.\nFor those who don't know, Israel only gets rain in the winter. Generally our rainy season, according to the Jewish Calendar, is from just after Succot (early October) until just before Passover (early April.) It's not unheard of for there to be rain during Succot and even a month after Passover. I've even experienced quick rainfalls in late August.\nChazal, our sages tell us that the quantity of rain, and its timing, are given by G-d according to how well we the Jewish People keep His Torah and obey the Mitzvot, Commandments. As an agricultural people, the quantity and timing of the rains are extremely important, crucial for our lives and economy, even today.\nModern life is very water wasting. The Israeli Government over the years has had been forced to raise the price of water to try to get people to use/waste less. One of the media encouraged campaign issues against the Likud has been the price of water. Every day the media here promotes another anti-government special interest group exaggerating government blame for something or other. Last night they had a tiny group of people, mostly handicapped, claiming that they couldn't afford to take a shower. They blamed it all on Bibi of course. That's politics.\nBut I have no doubt that if we would all respect the Land as a Jewish Land given to us by G-d for living and building for Jews, we'd have more rain, water and even cheaper housing. Simply put, that's the key. Israel's \"Laws of Nature\" are a bit different from what you'll find in the rest of the world.\nEverything looks so beautiful after a rain...\nThe Only Logical, Legal Way to End the \"Occupation\" sic is to Declare Israeli Sovereignty\nMany people have signed up to attend the third annual conference on applying Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria (Shomron), to be held the evening of Tuesday, January 1st at the Bible Lands Museum in Jerusalem. The theme of this year's conference is \"From the Edmond Levy Report to Sovereignty\".\nThe lectures will be in Hebrew with simultaneous translation into English. Special transportation in addition to public transportation can be ordered in advance. Space is limited. To reserve a seat, call 052 329 4194 or email ribonutisrael@gmail.com. For more information, call 050 716 1818 or 050 550 0834 or go to www.womeningreen.org. (Arutz 7)\nThe Only Logical, Legal Way to End the \"Occupation\" sic is to Declare Israeli Sovereignty on all of the Land liberated in the miraculous 1967 Six Days War.\nThere is nothing immoral in a multicultural country, which Israel is. The only thing immoral is the lack of Israeli sovereignty on the Land that miraculously was was liberated in a war of self-defense. Israel, foolishly IMHO had no plans to conquer the Land that had been stolen from the legally promised Jewish State more than a generation earlier.\nThe original international promise that the Jewish Biblical Homeland would become a state was certified in the Balfour Declaration in 1917.\nAfter that, the British began to backtrack, and now almost a hundred years later, the British Government is among the leaders of those that do all in their power to force Israel to support an Arab terror state in the heart of the Land of Israel.\nThe backtracking has been more than diplomatic. In 1921 Great Britain transplanted the Arabian Hashemites to the eastern side of the Jordan River and invented a new country, Jordan.\nHashemites, from the Arabic Hasimi (\u0647\u0627\u0634\u0645\u064a), are descendants of the ancient Banu Hahsim, or the Clan of Hashim, a large branch of the Quraysh Tribe of Mecca in the Arabian Peninsula. Hashemites trace their origin to Hashim ibn Abd al-Manaf, who died in c.510 AD, more than a century before the advent of Islam. He was reportedly the great grandfather of the Prophet Muhammad.\nToday, the Hashemites are best known as the rulers of Jordan. They had ruled the Arabian Peninsula until they were driven out by the more religiously austere Wahhabi-backed Saud family with the fall of the Ottoman Empire. In April 1921, Abdullah ibn Hussayn negotiated with then-colonial secretary Winston Churchill to be the administrator of British-occupied Trans-Jordan (present-day Jordan), thus removing Trans-Jordan from the implications of the Balfour Declaration.\nThe Hashemites are the real occupiers in this part of the world. They don't belong here at all.\nIsrael's delaying the application of sovereignty is the cause of the uncertainty, lack of stability we suffer from. Arabs living here don't know what to make of it and therefore find themselves supporting the terrorists, because there is no real alternative. There's a vacuum. In places where Israel is firmly and legally sovereign it's much safer for all, and that includes Arabs. The standard of living is higher for Arabs where Israel is fully sovereign. That's why Arabs are happy to work for minimum wage in places like Sha'ar Binyamin, rather than in the Arab towns and cities nearby. An Arab woman, an English Teacher spoke to me at my job in Yafiz, Sha'ar Binyamin, and told me of the pitifully low salaries given to teachers in Jenin and Shechem. They are much lower than the Israeli minimum wage.\nWe've all heard of how Arabs will do anything to get into Israeli hospitals, because our health care is better, the best in the middle east.\nNot only Jews, but Arabs, too, will benefit from Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria.\nLabels: Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria\nMaikel Nabil Sanad, Blogger of Hope or What?\nMaikel Nabil Sanad certainly stands out in a crowd, the crowded news world of the Middle East. He's an Egyptian Copt Christian who has nothing against Israel, apparently.\nDissident Maikel Nabil \u2014 the first political prisoner of the post-Mubarak regime \u2014 says there can be no democracy in Egypt without peace with Israel. But he also has harsh criticism for what he calls Jerusalem\u2019s \u2018racist\u2019 government (Times of Israel)\nSanad is making Jews happy, but his fellow Arabs are outraged. Consider that Israeli Arab students in Hebrew University loudly booed him when he spoke there.\nSanad explained his visit had two objectives \"First of all I came to say a peace- seeking community exists in Egypt, even if the media is trying to make it look like there isn't. We oppose war and are pro-peace with all countries including Israel,\n\"The Egyptian dictatorship tries to hide us and pretend such people do not exist, but we are present in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Morocco and Mauritania though the media does not report it.\n\"My second objective is to show how the situation in Egypt, Israel and Palestine is connected. My friends and I understand that we will not obtain peace without democracy, or have democracy without peace.\"\nRiots during Sanad speech at Hebrew University (Photo:Ohad Zwigenberg)\nThat means that Sanad is really a loner and doesn't have much of a following, even among Israeli Arabs. He's cashing in on the fact that Israelis want to hear that there's a chance of peace with Arabs. It's very dangerous for Israel to make too much of people like Sanaad. It would be nice to think that he represents a \"silent majority,\" or even a sizable minority in the Arab world. That would play well in the la la Left ideology.\nDon't forget that Sanad can't live safely in his native Egypt. He presently lives and studies in Germany.\nWe must remember that we will not achieve true peace by conventional logic. And we mustn't make too much of Arabs like Sanad.\nThe road to true lasting peace isn't simple. We're far from it when a person like Sanad isn't publicly supported by his fellow Arabs.\nIsrael spends too much time publicly groveling, begging the Arabs to make peace with us. That just causes them to feel more confident that they are winning and we are losing. And nobody likes to support a loser.\nFor true peace, we must stand tall and make demands. We must state that the onus, responsibility to make peace is on the Arabs. They are the sole guilty party, and that we have the patience to wait for them to recognize that we are the rulers of this Land.\nLabels: Maikel Nabil Sanad, peace\nTrue Leadership, King David vs King Saul and More From The Bible\nAs many of you know, I study Tanach, Bible in Matan, an excellent Jewish learning center for women in Jerusalem. Last week one of my classes celebrated a siyum completion of the Book of Samuel, Shmuel, which we learn with Dr. Yael Ziegler. We were asked to volunteer to say a \"few words\" about our studies. And, yes, I volunteered.\nI decided to speak about King David as he prepared to fight Goliath. At the time, nobody was aware that the young man who approached with supplies for his elder brothers was the \"king in waiting,\" the person that Samuel The Prophet had already anointed to succeed King Saul. And that included King Saul, himself.\nDavid, as he was known then, had chanced upon a terrible scene. King Saul and his soldiers were standing around terrified by the taunts of the Philistine Goliath. David listened, observed and then marched forward and announced that he was ready to slay Goliath. King Saul gratefully offered him the best armour available, but David, after allowing himself to be dressed in it, refused. 1Samuel 17\n\u05db\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9 \u05dc\u05b9\u05d0 \u05e0\u05b4\u05e1\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9\u05ea\u05b4\u05d9\nki lo nisiti\nbecause I didn't try these...\nI see the Hebrew word \u05e0\u05b4\u05e1\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9\u05ea\u05b4\u05d9 as related to the root/word \u05e0\u05e1 ness miracle. When I write about miracles I don't mean that we're supposed to stand around passively, patiently waiting. At the siyum I quickly told the joke:\n... about the man who keeps waiting for G-d to save him as his house gets covered by flood waters. He refuses to evacuate, get into the boat or climb the ladder from the helicopter telling everyone that G-d would save him. Once dead, he met G-d and asked:\n\"Where were you? I expected you to save me.\"\n\"I sent out evacuation orders, the boat and then the helicopter, but you stood there like an idiot.\"\nKing David didn't expect G-d to kill Goliath while he stood watching. He picked up five smooth stones. It only took one \"shot\" and Goliath was dead. I had a question for Dr Ziegler:\n\"Why did David need to take five stones, if he could kill him with one?\"\nThat question hasn't left my mind. Just three days later on Shabbat as I was reading the Torah Portion of the Week, Vayigash, in the OU's Torah Tidbits, by Phil Chernofsky. This includes the dramatic speech of Judah to the Viceroy of Egypt, when he stands up to him, man to man, which causes the viceroy to break down and admit that he is their missing brother, Josef. At the reunion, Phil mentions, Josef cried five times.\nFive? My mind went into overtime. There has to be a connection, because the difficult relationship between Joseph and his brothers precedes and predicts the later problems between King David and the King Saul. King David was from the Trible of Judah, and you can see that in how he stood up to Goliath, King Saul and the entire Jewish Army.\nAnd could Joseph have cried, because he sensed that he wasn't the leader Judah was?\nMaybe that's why Joseph and his only full-brother Benjamin cried so on each other's necks. Their father had raised them to believe that they were the natural leaders, but they weren't. True Jewish leadership comes from Judah and was inherited by David.\nLabels: Bible, Joseph, Judah, King David, King Saul, Matan, Tanach\nThe Truth is Out, NRP's Bennett, Paraphrased: I Will Do Anything for a \"Volvo\"\nI'm not all that surprised by the way things are going as the Israeli Knesset Elections get closer. Since a very sizable portion of Israelis are Right and religiously traditional it's no real surprise that the newest version of the veteran National Religious Party aka Bayit Yehudi has pulled into third place according to the latest polls.\nA new Channel 2 News and Dr. Mina Tzemach says that if the elections were held today, the Beit Yehudi, national Religious party, would win 12 seats, making it the third largest party in Israel. The rise of the old religious Zionist party is fueled by the mass desertion of Likud voters. The Likud-Beiteinu list, which today holds 42 seats in the Knesset, is down to 35 in Wednesday\u2019s poll.\nStraight out of the late Yosef Burg's book, it's new young leader Naftali Bennett hasn't been shy about making it clear that he plans on being in the cabinet. This is a very central part of the Bayit Yehudi campaign, so Bennett found himself challenged by Bibi and other Likud leaders, a month before elections.\nMeanwhile, Likud ministers are continuing to attack Bennett for the statement, following the lead of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who said Friday he would not let people who advocate refusal of orders into his coalition. Saar said in a public interview panel in Holon Saturday that Bennett should never have said what he did. \"We live in a country that cannot exist for even one moment without the Israel Defense Force and the IDF's existence depends on carrying out orders from the political echelon,\" he explained.\n\"A public figure who serves as a personal example must not talk about refusing orders. That is the difference between an approach that respects the state's sovereignty and one that does not. Placing my own world view before the democratic principle is a very serious matter. This is particularly true in a heterogeneous society like Israel's. The democratic principle and playing by the democratic rules \u2013 that is what keeps us together.\"\nI wasn't surprised when Bennett made a special, carefully worded announcement which is meant to placate Netanyahu and buy himself a \"Volvo*\" in the next Likud led government coalition.\nBennett statement removes Netanyahu ban from serving as minister\nDr. Aaron Lerner - IMRA 22 December 2012\nBayit Yehudi leader Naftali Bennett said in the course of an interview broadcast on Thursday night that if, as a reserve officer, he was given orders to expel Jews or Palestinians from their homes that he would approach his commanding officer and asked to be assigned to a different activity and that if that did not happen then, while he would not tell others to refuse to follow the orders, that he would himself, on a personal level, find it impossible to carry out the order and would accept punishment for that. In an interview on Friday afternoon broadcast Saturday night on Channel 2 television, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu stated that someone who is \"adamant on refusing orders\" could not serve as a minister in his government.\nTonight, at a press conference, Bennett said that \"I did not call for the refusal of orders...I spoke from the bottom of my heart and I do not apologize for my remarks. However, I'm not a private person but a public leader, and now I say this as clearly as possible: a command to uproot an Arab village or Jewish community from its roots is a fatal blow to the most basic of human rights...it is an unbearable dilemma. I pray with all my heart this it will never be given, but if this extreme situation is reached, I say clearly: a soldier must fulfill military orders. \"\nAs has been said about many in Israeli politics:\n\"Anything for a Volvo.*\"\nTo put it very simply:\nA vote for the NRP-Bayit Yehudi is a vote for Likud\nThe big difference in the MK's, at least the male ones, is that with the NRP, the kippah is more on the head than in the pocket.\nI will certainly admit that the platform of the NRP sounds good. It sounds very similar to that of Otzmah L'Yisrael. The big difference is that NRP thinks that it can influence the government from the inside. They claim that being a cabinet minister is important. They try to give the impression that Netanyahu actually consults with all the cabinet before making decisions. They want the voters to believe that Netanyahu really cares what the ministers and assistant ministers think. They are wrong, very dangerously wrong.\nThe job of the cabinet and the coalition MK's is to support the Government, vote according to party line and not question Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu. We've just seen now during the election campaign how easily Bibi got Bennett to jump through a hoop.\nSo, don't waste your vote. If you really want to change the world, save the State of Israel, then vote Otzmah l'Yisrael!\n*Volvo, the chauffeured car, a perk for ministers. Today there may be a different make of cars, but the meaning is the same.\nLabels: Bayit Yehudi, Israeli Elections, Likud, Naftali Bennett, NRP, Otzma L'Yisrael\nGun Control in America Will Require Major Changes\nWith two recent shooting attacks in the United States, twenty-six people killed in Connecticut and four in Pennsylvania, in barely a week, the calls for gun control are getting louder.\nIt won't be easy to enforce gun control laws without major changes in American life.\nIn Israel we have strict gun control laws. Even though a larger percentage of the Israeli population learn how to use a gun when in the army, very few civilians actually own guns. And to own a gun in Israel isn't simple. Click here for the Hebrew government's link. You need a license from the police to buy a weapon.\nYou have to prove there's a need to own a private weapon.\nYou have to know how to shoot and prove it, too.\nYou must be literate in Hebrew.\nYou must bring in medical certification that you are mentally and physically healthy.\nYou must be over twenty-one if an IDF veteran and even older if not.\nThe gun license is renewed, for a fee of course, every three years. The procedure includes a shooting test.\nAnd if the gun is to be kept at home, it must be in a special safe. It in Israel it is forbidden to have guns, rifles etc hanging on the walls as decorations.\nAfter a gun owner dies, the police contact the family, confiscate the weapon and instruct the family to sell it. Now, you may be wondering, how does the police know that someone has died*. All Israelis have identity numbers. These numbers are more important than American Social Security Numbers. At the age of sixteen, Israelis must go to the Ministry of the Interior to apply for a Te'udat Zehut, Identity Card. These are photo-identity cards. If one doesn't look like his/her photo, then the card, because of age, it must be changed. We use these numbers for everything imaginable. They are on our bank accounts, registering for tests, medical issues, pensions, etc.\nAnd we show our Identity Cards to vote. We are assigned to a voting station according to the address on our ID. For those who actually live someplace else, like my single kids, they can get free bus passes from where they live to the location they vote. Voter fraud is harder to pull off in Israel because of this law.\nFor the United States Government to really be effective in restricting gun ownership, they will need to institute a system like we have in Israel. Without required identity cards, and you can use the Social Security Number, which already exists, it will be too hard to identify and keep track of people. These sorts of changes will take many, many years. Are Americans really willing to do what it takes to make these changes or do they prefer to see guns owned and used by those who abuse them and murder others?\n*Apparently the police keep track of the ID numbers of weapons holders and are notified when the person dies.\nLatma Tries to Make Sense of The Left\nLatma gets it Right!\nThis week's program is especially good.\nCaroline Glick, thank you for Latma!\nTo Build is to Breathe, Life in Shiloh\nHonestly, it really doesn't bother me what the world thinks of Jewish building for Jewish Life in the Land of Israel, places like Shiloh. Let others say whatever they wish, because we have been here in Shiloh as Jews long before their societies wherever.\nI don't expect the world to approve our building. They didn't condemn Hitler and the Nazis for trying to annihilate European Jewry. They only mouthed \"condemnation\" after the Nazis had been defeated. I have no doubt that most of the world would have had been perfectly happy if Hitler had murdered many more than the six million Jews who died because of his policies.\nSo, let them continue to condemn us.\nFrance says settlement building plans calls into question Israel\u2019s commitment to peace; Ashton issues veiled threats.\nPhoto: REUTERS/ Mohammed Salem\nIsrael continued to take a pounding overseas on Thursday for announcements of construction activity beyond the Green Line, with EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton issuing veiled threats, France questioning Israel\u2019s commitment to peace and Quartet envoy Tony Blair issuing a sharp denunciation.\nThey have no moral authority, as far as I'm concerned.\nOne of the most striking projects in Shiloh is at Tel Shiloh, being built by our tourist office, Shiloh HaKeduma, Ancient Shiloh. It's to be a state of the art structure overlooking Shiloh. There will be some sort of movie that will teach people about Ancient Shiloh at the same time that they can view modern Shiloh.\nThe majority of Israelis support Jewish building in Judea and Samaria. IMRA quotes: \"Maagar Poll: 51%:31% Support continued Jewish construction in Judea and\nSamaria.\" Unfortunately Israeli politicians are more swayed by the the extreme Lefties who control the media here. But I hope they recognize that most Israelis are actually on the Right of the political spectrum. That's what the polls continue to show.\nNo doubt that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's proclamations that he'll be building are for the Election campaign because he wants votes. That's the name of the game... The United Nations, United States, European Union ad nauseum don't vote in Israeli Elections, B\"H, thank G-d.\nThe Jewish population in Judea and Samaria is growing rapidly. We need homes and commercial centers and schools.\nInclude that in our human rights campaign. We're human; aren't we? Here are a few local building projects. Some are just home expansions, and others are larger, including a multi-family homes.\nLabels: building in Judea and Samaria, Shiloh, Tel Shiloh\nGenuine Judaism\nTo break a commonly believed myth, I must say that there were maybe a couple of minutes in time, besides when the only Jew was Avraham Avinu, Our Forefather Abraham, when every single Jew followed G-d's Commandments. Those few minutes, or seconds were at that magic spiritual moment when G-d spoke to the Jews who had exodused from Egypt, and the Jewish People, including the souls of all Jews to be born for eternity, answered \u05e0\u05e2\u05e9\u05d4 \u05d5\u05e0\u05e9\u05de\u05e2 \"na'aseh vinishma,\" \"we will do and we will listen.\" That was the pledge that cemented our relationship with G-d.\nBut before then and since then, there have always been Jews who, for whatever reasons, ignored, disobeyed or were totally ignorant of the mitzvot commandments G-d has given to us.\nNot only have there been individual, personal refusals to follow the mitzvot, but over the millennium various alternative \"versions\" of Judaism have emerged. Christianity is actually one of them, and even Islam in a sense is one, too. Christianity claims to keep our Jewish Bible, but they added another volume and customs which directly contradict Judaism. Islam adopted some of our history and forefathers but distorted them.\nAnd there are the more modern versions of Judaism, like Reform, Conservative, Liberal, Reconstructionist and various Chassidic and even Chareidi sects which contradict the basic mitzvot. Yes, I may surprise you by saying that there's a distortion of Judaism in the Judaism practiced by some Chassidic and Chareidi Jews. Chassidim consider their Rebbe to be at best an intermediary between themselves and G-d, which is very problematic. Some of the Chabad/Lebovitch have gone even further and worship their dead Rebbe as Moshiach, Messiah. This is extremely problematic according to Jewish Law.\nIMHO, Chareidi Jews have adopted certain non-Jewish customs, like the one saying that \"men of the cloth*,\" yeshiva students, those dedicated to religion shouldn't defile themselves by serving in the army. And their insistence that it's preferable to learn full-time and never to work, learn a profession goes against basic Jewish Law.\nJewish Life, like the Jewish Calendar, which combines the Lunar and Solar Calendars, is supposed to combine kodesh and chol, the holy and the material/profane. We must know how to separate it, keep Shabbat versus doing the ordinary, real life stuff of building, creating etc during the weekdays.\nNow, how did I get onto this topic? I saw an article on Arutz 7 that the leading candidates to be the next Chief Rabbi of Israel are from the National Religious community. They are those who teach a Judaism more like what I believe in, including seeing the mitzvah in serving in the IDF and the importance of the State of Israel.\nHow Many of These Do You Find in Arab Countries?\nToday I went to the Old City of Jerusalem with family. Just outside of Sha'ar Yaffo, the Jaffa Gate were lots of tables with colorful awnings. They are all decorated for Xmas. Christians here in Israel are given lots of freedom of worship.\nI also noticed the variety of religious items on display at the various stores in the Arab Market of the Old City.\nYes, Jewish and Christian items share the shelves in many of the stores. You certainly won't find this sort of display in an Arab country.\nSo, where, in which country in the Middle East do people of all religions have the opportunity supported by law to practice their religion without persecution?\nLatma's \"Little Brother, \"A Hebrew's Word,\" and So...\nLatma Makes More Sense Than Political Speculations...\nThe Likud Needs Otzma LeYisrael in the Knesset Opp...\nRain, Do We Deserve the Blessings?

        "raw_content": "Just a few hours before the concert was set to take place a statement was issued by the venue, alongside the band, that announced a change in the line up due to some production and border delay issues. Openers Hayley Kiyoko and Arizona would not be performing that evening as a result of these behind the scenes developments as a seemingly massive delay set the show load-in back what can only be assumed was numerous hours. Fans outside the venue quickly rose into a fever pitch of worry as fear and rumor spread that Panic at the Disco too would be unable to perform due to these issues as well. However as the night approached and doors opened around 7PM these fears quickly transitioned into elation once more.\nWith well over a decade of material that spanned six full length albums Panic! At The Disco had a wide variety of songs to deliver to the packed arena of nearly 30,000. The final setlist for the night showcased the wide range of both Brendon Urie\u2019s vocal talent as well as the truly diverse catalog of music he has put out with Panic! At The Disco over all these years. It came as no surprise that the show kicked off with a fiery version of \u2018Silver Lining (Fuck It) \u2018 off the band\u2019s newest release \u2018Pray For the Wicked.\u2019 The album more than delivered on the challenge as well as the hype coming off the critical success that precluded with with \u2018Death of a Bachelor\u2019 and the majority of the set was comprised of songs from the album.\nAcross twenty eight songs Brendon Urie led the crowd across a cross generation journey that shined brightest when Urie was able to deviate away from the studio version\u2019s of tracks. Whether he was hung from a flying piano that sailed across the venue or dancing across the stage with a pride flag tossed to him Urie was the rightful focus of the show as he demonstrated just how he was able to keep Panic! At The Disco continually growing all these years \u2013 pure, raw talent that is remarkable in a live setting.\nBrendon Urie shines when he is in front of a crowd and over the past 2 years the size of that crowd has grown form small clubs to full arenas of fans. It is not unreasonable to think that Urie and company will be headlining stadiums even bigger within the next two years based on the current trajectory of the band \u2013 only time will tell but right now there is nothing stopping Brendon Urie from holding the throne on alternative music.",

The disease can also be spread by blood transfusion, organ transplantation, or by eating food contaminated with the parasite. Pregnant women may spread it to the fetus.\nThe disease has four stages. It can be cured by anti-parasitic drugs. Between eight and eleven million people may suffer from the disease, but many do not know they are infected. Strategies of controlling the disease are mostly focused on eliminating the insect vector, and on preventing contamination from other sources.\n\u2191 African trypanosomiasis is another name for the sleeping sickness, spread by the Tsetse fly.\nRetrieved from \"https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chagas_disease&oldid=5199525\"\nDiseases spread by insects",

        "title": "Tularemia - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia",
        "raw_content": "Tularemia (also called \"Goblin Fever\", \"deer-fly fever\", \"Ohara fever\" and \"Francis disease\") is a disease. Usually rodents get it. It is caused by a bacterium, Francisella tularensis. There have been cases where the disease spread to humans. The disease can be treated with antibiotics.\nTularemia as a biological weapon[change | change source]\nCases of tularemia should be reported to the local health authority. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention think F. tularensis could possibly be a bioweapons agent. For this reason, it has been included in the biological warfare programs of the USA, USSR and Japan at various times.[1] A former Soviet biological weapons scientist, Kenneth Alibek, has said that an outbreak of Tularemia among German soldiers shortly before the siege of Stalingrad was due to intentional release of F. tularensis by Soviet forces, but this claim is rejected by others who have studied the outbreak.[2] In the USA, practical research into using Tularemia as a bioweapon took place at Camp Detrick in the 1950s. It was viewed as an attractive agent because:\nit is easy to aerosolize\nit is highly infective; 10-50 bacteria are required to infect\nit is non-persistent and easy to decontaminate (unlike anthrax)\nit is highly incapacitating to infected persons\nit has low lethality, which is useful where enemy soldiers are in proximity to non-combatants, e.g. civilians\nBy the late 1950s the US biological warfare program was focused mostly on tularemia as a biological agent. The Schu S4 strain was standardized as Agent UL for use in the M143 bursting spherical bomblet. It was a lethal biological with an anticipated fatality rate of 40 to 60 percent. The rate-of-action was around three days, with a duration-of-action of one to three weeks (treated) and two to three months (untreated) with frequent relapses. UL was streptomycin resistant. The aerobiological stability of UL was a major concern, being sensitive to sun light, and losing virulence over time after release.[source?]\nThe United States later changed the military symbol for UL to TT (wet-type) and ZZ (dry-type) in an effort to retain security on the identity of military biologicals. When the 425 strain was standardized as agent JT (an incapacitant rather than lethal agent), the Schu S4 strain's symbol was changed again to SR.[source?]\nNo vaccine is available to the general public.[3] The best way to prevent tularemia infection is to wear rubber gloves when handling or skinning rodents or lagomorphs (as rabbits), avoid ingesting uncooked wild game and untreated water sources, and wearing long-sleeved clothes and using an insect repellent to prevent tick bites.\nDocumented outbreaks[change | change source]\nIn summer 2000, an outbreak of tularemia in Martha's Vineyard resulted in one dead person. It brought the interest of the CDC as a potential investigative ground for aerosolized Francisella tularensis. Over the following summers, Martha's Vineyard was identified as the only place in the world where documented cases of tularemia resulted from lawn mowing.[4] The research may prove valuable in preventing bioterrorism[source?].\nAn outbreak of tularemia occurred in Kosovo in 1999-2000.[5]\nIn 2004, three researchers at Boston University Medical Center were accidentally infected with F. tularensis, after apparently failing to follow safety procedures.[6]\nIn 2005, small amounts of F. tularensis were detected in the Mall area of Washington, DC the morning after an anti-war demonstration on September 24, 2005. Biohazard sensors were triggered at six locations surrounding the Mall. To this date, no cases of tularemia infection have been reported as a result.[7]\nIn 2007, a lab of Boston University's Center for Advanced Biomedical Research, where F. tularensis were being kept for research, was evacuated after smoke set off alarms. An investigation has later determined that an electrical problem was the culprit, and no bacterial contamination was found.\nIn July 2007, an outbreak was reported in the Spanish autonomous region of Castile and Le\u00f3n and traced to the plague of voles infesting the region.\n\u2191 Dennis DT et al.

        "title": "India's Growing Problem of Under-Qualified Yet Certified Pilots \u2013 Skift",
        "raw_content": "India\u2019s Growing Problem of Under-Qualified Yet Certified Pilots\nUnmanaged growth and hyper-competition doesn\u2019t always make for the safest experience when you need to take the time to properly train the talent behind the controls.\nAnupam Verma has a certificate that shows he has flown an aircraft for 360 hours. He says he got it after sitting in the co-pilot\u2019s seat for just 35 minutes.\nHe\u2019s one of dozens of pilots in the country who obtained certificates showing inflated flying hours and ground training, according to court documents and interviews with pilots, regulators and industry analysts. The son of a poor farmer, Verma was given a 2.8 million-rupee ($44,000) subsidy by the Indian government to learn to fly a commercial jet.\n\u201cWhat if I was flying and had an emergency? I wouldn\u2019t even know how or where to land,\u201d Verma, 25, said in an interview. \u201cWe\u2019d kill not only the passengers, but we might crash in a village and kill even more people.\u201d\nThe spotlight on aviation safety has swung from aircraft reliability to pilot reliability in the past few years after a series of disasters that were thought to be either deliberate acts of destruction, or the result of inadequate training. The latest, in March, killed 150 people when Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz appears to have locked his captain out of the cockpit and flown his jet into a mountain.\nLast year, a Malaysia Airlines jet with 239 on board mysteriously changed course en-route to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur and headed off for thousands of kilometers into the Indian Ocean. The plane still hasn\u2019t been found and the cause of the disaster remains unknown.\nConcern about the quality of India\u2019s pilots has been building over the past decade as a proliferation of budget airlines created demand for hundreds of new pilots. In 2011, the government reviewed the licenses of all 4,000-plus airline pilots in the country, as police investigated at least 18 people suspected of using forged documents to win promotions or certification. The findings of the review were not made public.\n\u201cThe fudging of log books is rampant both in airlines and in flying clubs,\u201d said Mohan Ranganathan, a former commercial pilot and aviation safety consultant based in Chennai. He said the 2011 audit found violations in most flying clubs in the country. \u201cHours were logged with aircraft not even in airworthy condition. One aircraft had no engines but several hundred hours were logged.\u201d\nAsked about the continued use of fake certificates, India\u2019s Director General of Civil Aviation, M. Sathiyavathy, said on April 24 the directorate would be conducting a new audit that would require the \u201crecertification of all the flying schools.\u201d\nFake Flying\nOver logging has been common practice in India since the 1960s, according to a retired commander who has flown in India for over 40 years and asked not to be named because the information was confidential. With the increase in budget airlines the typical number of faked hours rose from about 20 hours to a peak of as much as 150, he said.\nHe said airlines can soon tell if a pilot has faked certificates because they don\u2019t have basic skills, but the carrier can\u2019t fire them because they have DGCA licenses. To bring them up to scratch, airlines have to do expensive corrective training, he said.\nOf India\u2019s seven major airlines, Tata SIA Airlines Ltd.\u2019s Vistara said it is aware of over logging, but tests all new pilots and provides its own training. SpiceJet Ltd. said it only hires from prestigious air schools and tests and trains all new pilots. IndiGo, Air India Ltd., Jet Airways India Ltd. and AirAsia India Ltd. didn\u2019t respond to e-mails and phone calls about the issue. Go Airlines India Pvt. Ltd. declined to comment.\nThe rise of budget carriers not only increased demand for pilots, it also sparked a price war that wiped out the industry\u2019s profit. India\u2019s carriers have lost $10 billion in the past seven years as they offered base fares as low as 1 rupee (2 cents). That works out as a loss of about $22 for each passenger that stepped on board during the period, according to the Sydney-based CAPA Centre for Aviation.\nYet, for people like Verma, the award of a government grant to learn to fly is a chance to escape poverty. His father supports his family of seven by selling vegetables grown on a plot of land half the size of a football field. Most of his siblings only work part-time to supplement the income.\nYash Air\nVerma enrolled in December 2009 at Yash Air, a flying school in the city of Indore, halfway between Mumbai and Delhi. On his first day, he said he was taken on a 35-minute \u201cair- experience\u201d flight to give him a feel of what it was like to be in a plane. Moments after the aircraft landed, he was handed a certificate of flying for 360 hours, he said in an interview on June 1. He said he was told he will do the actual flying later during the course, but that he eventually flew for just 3 hours at the school.\nWhen Verma and other trainee pilots realized they weren\u2019t going to gain the necessary flying experience, they complained to the school and Verma sued for return of the money he paid. The Allahabad High Court ordered that his fees be returned, according to a court order in February this year.\n\u201cSeveral discrepancies have been noticed with regard to over logging of flight details, flight authorization, maintenance of various log books and fuel consumption registers,\u201d according to a DGCA enquiry into the complaints about Yash Air, dated June 6, 2014, a copy of which was given to Bloomberg News.\nOn May 19, 2010, a qualified pilot from Yash Air took a trainee pilot on a \u201cjoy ride\u201d in a Cessna-152 and hit a power line, according to the DGCA\u2019s final report into the accident. The two-seater, single-engined trainer crashed into a dry river bed, splitting into five pieces and killing the men. They were both about 20 years old, according to the report, dated Dec. 17, 2010.\nThe owner and chief trainer at the school, Yash Raj Tongia, was appointed as the DGCA\u2019s director of flying and training in 2011, even though his flying skills were \u201cbelow standard,\u201d the June 2014 DGCA report said.\nYash Air changed its name to Centaur Aviation Academy Pvt. Ltd. after the allegations were made in 2010, according to the Allahabad High Court. Yash Air issued certificates to its students without conducting ground classes and flying training, the court said in December 2014.\nAttempts to get the flying school or Tongia to comment on Verma\u2019s claims were unsuccessful. Calls to Tongia\u2019s mobile phone number listed in the court documents were unanswered. Kshemendra Shukla, one of the lawyers who represents Yash Air, said he doesn\u2019t have any contact number for Tongia. He didn\u2019t respond to questions concerning Yash Air.\nTelephone numbers for Yash Air and Centaur Aviation were no longer in service. The DGCA said Centaur Aviation\u2019s approval remains suspended.\nEven with the minimum 200 hours mandated by the Indian government, pilots would be unlikely to have experienced all of the weather and other conditions they\u2019re likely to meet flying a commercial jet, said Neil Hansford, an aviation consultant, who has worked in the industry in Asia, Europe and his home country, Australia since 1984.\nAirlines should hire pilots with at least 1,000 hours of flying time and preferably match the 1,500 hours mandated by Qantas Airways Ltd., he said. Pilots in countries like Australia often gain years of experience in general aviation \u2014 delivering mail to remote areas, ferrying mine workers or in the Royal Flying Doctor Service \u2014 before flying jetliners.\nThat will test a pilot in a variety of conditions, so \u201cwhen the chips are down, they still remember the basics of stick-and-rudder flying,\u201d Hansford said. \u201cThe wrong time to be challenged is when you have 300 people behind you.\u201d\nAsian Carriers\nFor budget airlines in Asia, that\u2019s often not an option. Singapore\u2019s Tiger Airways Holding Ltd. said it hires holders of multi-crew or commercial pilot licenses with about 200 flying hours and then gives them further training.\nFull-service carrier Asiana Airlines Inc., based in Seoul, looks for at least 300 hours, said spokesman Daewoong Im. \u201cRealistically, it\u2019s difficult to get a non-military person with more than 300 flying hours,\u201d he said.\nCarriers also use simulators and other ground training to improve pilots\u2019 experience.\nIn India, many private Indian flying schools began as clubs that trained pilots without formal regulations. While schools in the U.S. use a Hobbs Meter, which automatically logs flight times and other data for training aircraft, some Indian schools still enter flight times by hand, making it easier to falsify data. Indian flying academies that falsify data run cars on aviation fuel to avoid a mismatch between flight times and fuel consumption, said three people who have worked directly with flying schools in the country.\nIndia\u2019s government has made successive efforts to stamp out false documentation and improve safety in the industry. After the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration downgraded India\u2019s safety rating in 2014 on concerns over insufficient manpower, India hired more safety inspectors and carried out a fresh audit of its airlines. The FAA restored India to its top safety tier in April.\nSince 2000, the number of fatal aviation accidents in India has declined, data from Aviation Safety Network show. The last major airline disaster was in 2010, when an Air India Express plane overshot the runway in the city of Mangalore and burst into flames, killing 158 people.\nIndia is putting in \u201ca lot of effort\u201d to ensure safety of airline passengers and student pilots, civil aviation chief Sathiyavathy told reporters on April 24. The DGCA didn\u2019t respond to phone calls and text messages asking for comment on the issue of fake certificates.\nThat hasn\u2019t stopped under-trained pilots applying for jobs with the nation\u2019s biggest airlines. One qualified pilot, who asked not to be named because it may harm his career, said he completed fewer than 120 of the 200 hours his certificates say he has done. He said he is in the process of applying to fly for IndiGo, the nation\u2019s biggest carrier.\nAnother pilot, who said his certificates showed an inflated number of hours for solo flights, applied to Air India.\nNeither of the two pilots has been hired by the airlines.\nAs for Verma, he said he passed the entrance exam to the government-owned Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Uran Akademi in Uttar Pradesh. He\u2019s looking forward to finally learning to fly this year.\n\u2013With assistance from Jason Gale in Sydney.\nTags: air india, asiana, india, indigo, jet airways, labor, malaysia airlines, pilots, spicejet\nPhoto Credit: Airplanes on the tarmac at Chennai International Airport.

        "raw_content": "US-Iran\u2019s Nuclear Conflict and the Exercise of Arab/Iranian Realpolitik\nThe partisan circus in the US Congress involving Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s March 3, 2015 speech condemning US-Iran nuclear negotiations is over, while the assessment phase of that speech over the prospects of a nuclear deal continues. If Netanyahu wanted to minimize, if not kill, the chances of a deal that is acceptable to the United States and Iran, he may have succeeded, at least in making its emergence difficult. What is left to be seen is how resolute American and Iranian negotiators will be about concluding a nuclear deal. The issues involved are as intricate as they are obdurate. The most interesting development in this high-stakes drama is the exercise of Iranian and Arab realpolitik aimed at negatively affecting those negotiations. Whether they will create such effects or not, we may be witnessing at least a tacit political realignment between the Israeli and Arab strategic priorities involving Iran. This realignment also appears to diminish the influence of the United States in the Arab world.\nThe Iranian reaction of the March 3 speech was not astounding. The Iranian government knew that things were going very much as anticipated, and it did not wish to adopt tendentious rhetoric to condemn the Israeli Prime Minister.\nPresident Hassan Rouhani reported to have noted, \u201cPeople in the world, as well as the Americans, are much more perceptive than to trust the words of advice from a regime that has a long reputation for causing conflict and crisis.\u201d[i] Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif dismissed Netanyahu\u2019s speech as an attempt to create tensions between the US and Iran, a ploy attempt that will help no one (by that he meant Iran and the United States).[ii]\nThe immediate reaction of the Iranian and American negotiators was that they were not interested in getting swept away by the emotionalism that Netanyahu\u2019s speech had created, at least inside the US Congress. As exuberant as the US legislators were in showing their endorsement of the rhetorical hyperbolas of the Israeli Prime Minister, even they knew that they had to evaluate the final deal by applying ample hardnosed realism. President Obama was quite terse in dismissing Netanyahu\u2019s speech as containing nothing new.\nEven though the Israeli Prime Minister was speaking to the US Congress and the American people, he was also addressing the audiences inside the Middle East, especially Iran\u2019s immediate neighbors. He is fully aware of the mounting Arab-Iranian rivalry (which is bordering on animosity) involving the ongoing civil war in Syria and the escalating military conflict between the Shia-dominated government of Iraq and ISIS.\nKeeping that in mind, Netanyahu purposely embellished the Arab states\u2019 fear of Iran\u2019s mounting presence and sphere of influence in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen. Secondly, he made special mention of the frequently-iterated Saudi rhetoric that, if Iran were to acquire nuclear weapons, Saudi Arabia would follow suit. Thirdly, and shrewdly, he avoided any mention of the sectarian rivalry of Saudi Arabia and Iran that has shown its ugly face in both Syria and Iraq.\nThe most noteworthy aspect of the reaction to Netanyahu\u2019s speech came from the government-controlled Saudi media. In a highly unprecedented manner, the editor-in-chief of al-Arabiya, Faisal J. Abbas, urged President Barack Obama to \u201clisten to Netanyahu on Iran.\u201d Abbas\u2019 editorial was also telling in highlighting Saudi alarm related to the impressive performance of the Iranian forces under the leadership of General Qasem Soleimani, Commander of Iran\u2019s Quds forces, in the military operation aimed at regaining the control of Tikrit from ISIS.\nThe highly anticipated victory of Iranian-led Shia forces in Tikrit is also significant for two other reasons. First, Tikrit is Saddam Hussein\u2019s hometown. Second, it is also a predominantly Sunni region. The Saudis are fully aware that the capture of Tikrit from ISIS by the Iranian-led forces will result in a further increase in Iranian influence in Iraq.[iii]\nThe fact that a leading Saudi newspaper so boldly endorses Netanyahu\u2019s criticism of the US about its policy of negotiating with Iran also signals that the Saudis are begrudgingly accepting the fact that they can no longer rely on the United States to guarantee the status quo of the Arab world, which it inherited in the aftermath of World War II and then ensured its survival by building alliances that also guaranteed the survival of the Arab sheikhdoms. When the Iranian Revolution of 1979 brought an end to one of America\u2019s foremost allies\u2014Mohammad Reza Pahlavi\u2014the United States became even more serious about protecting the pro-Western Arab states. The Gulf War of 1991, that ousted Saddam Hussein\u2019s military occupation of Kuwait and also eliminated his potential invasion of Saudi Arabia, was convincing evidence of how unyielding the United States was about protecting the political status quo in the Arab world.\nHowever, the United States\u2019 decision not to prevent the regime change of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in 2011 shocked the Gulf Emirates. Saudi Arabia made no attempt to hide its anger toward the Obama administration over the downfall of Mubarak, who was generally regarded as a trusted ally of America. Riyadh (along with the UAE) provided generous economic assistance to Egypt and strongly supported the Egyptian military\u2019s ouster of the first democratically elected government headed by President Mohammad Morsi of the Islamic Brotherhood. The Saudi government not only despised that entity, but also branded it as \u201cterrorist.\u201d[iv]\nSaudi support of Netanyahu\u2019s defiance of President Barack Obama and his use of the US congressional forum to demonize Iran was also sweet music for another Saudi blogger, Ahmad al-Faraj. He not only endorsed Netanyahu\u2019s speech, but added, \u201cSince Obama is the godfather of the prefabricated revolutions in the Arab world, and since he is the ally of political Islam, [which is] the caring mother of [all] the terrorist organizations, and since he is working to sign an agreement with Iran that will come at the expense of the U.S.'s longtime allies in the Gulf, I am very glad of Netanyahu's firm stance and [his decision] to speak against the nuclear agreement at the American Congress despite the Obama administration's anger and fury. I believe that Netanyahu's conduct will serve our interests, the people of the Gulf, much more than the foolish behavior of one of the worst American presidents\u2026\"[v] Such a disrespectful description of the sitting president in the government-controlled Saudi press clearly signals a yawning chasm between the United States and the Arab Gulf states.\nIn order to fully comprehend the linkage between the expression of the aforementioned Saudi bloggers and the Saudi government, one has to recall that, according to \u201cleaked U.S. diplomatic cables,\u201d the late King Abdullah Ben Abdel Aziz \u201crepeatedly exhorted the United States to \u2018cut off the head of the snake\u2019 by launching military strikes to destroy Iran's nuclear program.\u201d[vi]\nThe scary part of this narrative becomes further obvious by pointing out that, when Netanyahu was addressing the US joint congressional gathering on March 3, 2015, his chief financial supporter, Sheldon Adelson, was also present in the visitor\u2019s gallery. Adelson is referred to as \u201cthe Godfather of the Republican Right,\u201d almost all of whom were present in the congressional hall. In a 2013 speech at New York\u2019s Yeshiva University, Adelson had a very similar suggestion for the United States about how to handle Iran. He \u201cdenounced President Obama\u2019s diplomatic efforts with Iran and proposed instead that the United States drop an atomic bomb in the Iranian desert and then declare: \u2018See! The next one is in the middle of Tehran. So, we mean business. You want to be wiped out? Go ahead and take a tough position and continue with your nuclear development.\u2019\u201d[vii]\nNetanyahu\u2019s March 3 speech underscored the arrival of an era when the Arab states would not hesitate about publicly expressing their disagreements with the United States. In an age when social media rules the global airwaves, the Arab states are likely to use it frequently to promote their national interests, especially when they feel that they are being ignored by their erstwhile dependable ally. In this regard, they are only emulating Benyamin Netanyahu, whose country has written volumes on receiving massive military and economic assistance from Washington, but at the same time dictating the modalities of America\u2019s foreign policy affecting its interests in the Middle East and elsewhere.\nFor Iran, Netanyahu\u2019s speech has also clarified how important it is to resolve the nuclear issue while President Barack Obama is at the helm in the United States. A Republican President in 2017 might be intransigent in demanding a total stoppage of Iranian nuclear program. Naturally, Iran would reject such a demand. A potential outcome might be the use of US military action against Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities. That may be what Israel and the Arab states desire, but certainly not Iran.\n[i] Ariel Ben Solomon, \u201cIran reacts harshly to Netanyahu speech,\u201d The Jerusalem Post, March 4, 2015, http://www.jpost.com/Middle-East/Iran-reacts-harshly-to-Netanyahu-speech-392944\n[ii] Reuters, \u201cIran FM Zarif criticizes Netanyahu for trying to influence nuclear deal,\u201d The Jerusalem Post, March 3, 2015, http://www.jpost.com/Middle-East/Iran-FM-Zarif-criticizes-Netanyahu-for-trying-to-influence-nuclear-deal-392790\n[iii] Anne Barnard, \u201cIran Gains Influence in Iraq as Shiite Forces Fight ISIS, The New York Times, March 5, 2015, http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/06/world/middleeast/iran-gains-influence-in-iraq-as-shiite-forces-fight-isis.html.\n[iv] David D.

Following the speech to congress by that foreign power's leader, should diplomatic efforts with the U.S. fail to resolve the nuclear issue, likely the Iranians are in a much improved position with the EU, which has been Iran's minimum goal during these negotiations taking place during the second term of the Obama Administration.",

Canadian Review of Social Policy, (74), pp.1-39.\nhomelessness, Aging, Life Course, Policy, Government\nHomelessness among older people is becoming increasingly common all across Canada. This can be attributed to the aging of people who are already homeless and an increase in the number of people that are becoming homeless for the first time in later life. Strategies and initiatives to end homelessness in Canada tend to target specific groups such as youth, women, and indigenous people, but older people are often overlooked as a target population. Older homeless people have unique needs that require targeted strategies and support. This research examines the extent to which homeless older people are included in strategies to eliminate homelessness in Canada.\nThe researchers conducted a survey of government strategies on homelessness at local, provincial, and federal levels. The planning documents were identified through the Canadian Health Research Collection and Canadian Health Research Index databases. A total of 42 planning documents were included in the review, 7 were at the federal level, 13 at the provincial level, and 22 at the municipal level. The documents were then categorized into one of three categories; no discussion of homelessness among older people, minimal discussion of homelessness among older people and significant discussion of homelessness among older people.\nThe researchers found that 16 strategies contained no discussion of homelessness among older people. 22 of the planning documents had minimal discussion of homelessness among older people, mentioning for example, older people as one of many at-risk groups without further elaboration. Only four of the planning documents had a significant discussion of homelessness among older people. These documents considered the unique challenges that older homeless people face and outlined specific strategies to help meet their needs. The review also revealed that more recent documents were more likely to mention older people in some capacity.\nThese findings demonstrate that the needs of the elderly are largely absent from strategies and initiatives to eliminate homelessness across Canada. The researchers suggest that government at all levels consider models from other countries which address older homelessness through the development of permanent housing, integrated health supports, and a consideration of the risk profile that can lead to homelessness for the first time in later life.\nThis research can be used by municipal, provincial, and federal levels of government to improve their strategies to combat homelessness among older people. In addition, support groups that provide programs for the homeless can use this research to better understand the needs of the older people they serve.",

        "raw_content": "Driven by love: Brother\u2019s illness inspires student to pursue medical career\nJada Boyd spent most of her ninth-grade year at the hospital with her older brother, who suffered from a severe liver disease and potentially cancerous colon polyps. She was with her brother throughout his serious illness, a liver transplant and, eventually, his full recovery.\nDuring many days and nights at Children\u2019s Hospital Colorado, the teenager watched her brother\u2019s primary doctor in awe.\n\u201cShe and her team cared about our family and had a meaningful relationship with us,\u201d recalled Boyd, from Aurora, Colo. \u201cI knew then that I wanted to become a doctor to provide that for others.\u201d\nSix years later, Boyd is a CSU junior majoring in biomedical sciences, with medical school in her sights. Her capabilities as a young scientist recently gained national kudos, when Boyd became the only college student from Colorado to earn an award at the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students in Seattle.\nAward-worthy cancer research\nBiomedical sciences student Jada Boyd practices piano in the Lory Student Center. The aspiring physician has been an active community volunteer and member of Premedica Club.\nBoyd conducted undergraduate research in cancer; she was among more than 1,700 college students from across the country to present research findings at the conference, sponsored by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences in November. She was honored for an outstanding presentation in cancer biology, with an award sponsored by St. Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.\nBoyd\u2019s achievements exemplify what can happen when talented minority students receive opportunities and encouragement in STEM disciplines \u2013 an important effort at CSU and at other research institutions nationwide.\n\u201cIt was a big deal,\u201d Juan Lucas Argueso, Boyd\u2019s mentor and an assistant professor in the Department of Environmental and Radiological Health Sciences, said of her success. \u201cThe quality of the presentations at the conference was very high. This was an impressive and well-deserved achievement for Jada.\u201d\nBoyd used yeast cell models to investigate mechanisms responsible for chromosome translocations, which are abnormalities caused by rearrangement of chromosome parts. This relocation of genetic material is commonly seen in cancer cells. So understanding how translocations occur could be central to preventing some cancers.\nResearching mechanisms in translocations is \u201ckind of like uncovering the behind-the-scenes work of a magic trick,\u201d Boyd said.\n\u201cStudying mutations allows us a glimpse into the deep inner workings of cancer,\u201d she said. \u201cI see this research as contributing to a better understanding of how mutations occur, which could eventually help us learn to prevent or minimize them. And since cancer effects so many people, this research is crucial and close to my heart.\u201d\nBoyd started her research efforts by volunteering in a laboratory that studies the use of specialized radiation in cancer treatment. From there, she earned a Cancer Research Summer Fellowship from the University of Colorado Cancer Center and began working in Argueso\u2019s research laboratory alongside Victoria Harcy, a doctoral candidate in the CSU Cell and Molecular Biology program.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been neat to watch Jada gain understanding, confidence, and independence in the lab,\u201d Harcy said.\nBoyd, in turn, compliments her mentors: \u201cThey helped me stay on this path, even when it got hard and I had moments of doubt \u2013 and I\u2019ll never forget that.\u201d\nA future in helping people\nThe biomedical sciences student will graduate with a bachelor\u2019s degree in December, then expects to move on to medical school.\n\u201cMy parents taught me that by helping one person, you can help a lot of people,\u201d Boyd said. \u201cThat\u2019s what I\u2019m most looking forward to about being a physician. No matter what type of medicine I go into, I want to build positive relationships with my patients and provide great care. People trust medical professionals and come to them baring all \u2013 and being able to figure out how best to help someone is the most gratifying thing in the world.\u201d\nRead more about Boyd\u2019s research here.\nCollege of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical SciencesDepartment of Biomedical SciencesDepartment of Environmental and Radiological Health Sciences",

        "raw_content": "New MBTA website\nDespite the griping during the changeover, I think the new MBTA fare system \u2014 a change in the costs and the method of collections \u2014 is a good thing. In tandem with the near-completion of the switch, they have also released their new website.\nNew fare system\nThe new fare structore eliminates and evens out a lot of discrepancies, which was one of their main goals as far as I could tell. Previously, there were some lines with exit fares, there were some lines that were free in some directions, and there were no subway-to-bus transfers, even though the subway costs more to ride than the bus. The new system eliminates those random freebies and exit fares. For holders of monthly subway passes, it also solves the problem with being unable to use your subway pass (more expensive than the bus pass) on the bus. They have eliminated the subway pass and created the LinkPass, which gets you the subway, local bus, and some of the ferries. (This is an amazing development that will make life so much easier. No more digging for change to take the bus! I think they will see bus ridership go up.)\nThe standard subway fare has increased significantly \u2013 it\u2019s gone up from $1.25 to $2.00 (it was $0.85 in 1998). But, those of us who take the T frequently don\u2019t have to pay that full price. If you purchase a monthly pass, you get a great deal; someone who uses their pass 40 times (twice a day for 20 days, which approximates a workweek-only commute, says me) pays just shy of $1.50 each ride. I think it is safe to say that most folks with monthly passes use them more than that. Plus, as noted above you can also take the bus with this pass. If you ride the subway frequently but not enough to warrant a monthly pass, and you use a new plastic, RFID-enabled CharlieCard to hold your fare (this is what the monthly passes go on now), you pay $1.70 per ride. So it\u2019s still an increase, but what can you do? I know this puts a sqeeze on a lot of people\u2019s budgets, but hopefully it won\u2019t be completely disastrous for the city\u2019s low-income folks.\nOne thing that happened in tandem with the changes to the fare structure and collection methods is a redesign of the MBTA website. They launched it a few days ago, and had to take it down within hours because it was running slowly (d\u2019oh!). It\u2019s back up now, and it is much more useful. Subway and bus lines are overlaid onto Google Maps and it is much easier to get route information. For example, when you look up information about a subway line, you get a graphical representation of the line that names the stops, and indicates what other subway and commuter rail lines connect there. But it also lists the bus connections you can get at that stop. This seems obvious, but it is a major improvement (at least as far as I am concerned). On that same page, there is also information about escalators and handicap accessibility. The schedules are also much easier to read. And the station information pages have a ton of useful information, including a map right there! I can\u2019t tell you how many times I went to a station info page to get the address or intersection so I could pull up a map.\nUnfortunately, something they have yet to roll out is email and/or SMS updates regarding service. I would love nothing more than to get a text message informing me that there are delays on the subway or bus line I am about to go try and catch. I did read somewhere that this type of service is on the horizon. We\u2019ll see. (Come on, Dan Grabauskas! You can do it!) Cool kids with a device running the Palm OS or Windows Mobile can download schedules and maps. Starts & Stops says that they can also be downloaded to video iPods, but that feature isn\u2019t easily findable on the MBTA site. The only mention of it that my search turned up was in the Privacy Policy. I don\u2019t have a video iPod, so I don\u2019t really care. However, it does make me sort of want one now, just to be able to look at the maps & schedules on the go. Heck maybe it is worth trying to get ahold of a cheap Palm on ebay. Hmm.\nAnyway, in poking around on the website I just discovered this information, regarding the timeline for puchasing a monthly pass:\nMonthly passes are sold starting the 15th of the prior month until the 14th of the current month.\nSo that means that from January 15 to February 14, you can purchase a February monthly pass. This is an amazing improvement to have a full month in which to buy your monthly pass \u2014 previously, there was an eight-day window (January 28 \u2013 February 4 to buy your February pass, for example). I haven\u2019t noticed this bit of information promoted anywhere, and I think it should get out there!\nI am betting that this change is due to the new way of selling passes. Previously, you had to go somewhere to buy (or pick up, if you got it through work) your monthly pass. Each month, you got a new physical pass for that month. That means that at all the sales points (supermarkets, convenience stores, etc.) the MBTA had to drop off and pick up the passes, and the merchants had to keep careful track of the money so they could account for everything to the T. With that kind of system, a shorter window is best for accounting purposes. Not as good for customers, but if that\u2019s when you can buy your pass, then that\u2019s when you buy your pass. It only takes missing your opportunity once to reinforce that yes, this is an important errand to get done on time.\nThe CharlieCards are more permanent. Each month, you can reload it, either online, at a fare vending machine at a station, or at a little kiosk in some of the places that used to sell the passes. (For people who get their pass through work or school, their CharlieCard will be automatically updated with their new pass, every month. Hopefully this is the way the Simmons semster pass will work.) That means the money goes straight to the MBTA, and they don\u2019t have to run around dispersing and collecting passes. So, you might as well sell them for a much longer time period. This is an awesome improvement.\nOverall I\u2019m really happy with what\u2019s been going on with the T lately. Yes, it has been a pain in the butt dodging construction in the stations as the new turnstiles and fare vending machines were put in. Yes it\u2019s been a pain as commuters\u2019 learning curves collide. And yes, there are still service problems (it recently occurred to me that the T does really well when they know there will be a service interruption, for example due to construction, but not so well when there is an emergency or something unexpected, such as a \u201cdisabled train\u201d) and there\u2019s always that nagging wonder as you wait for a late bus \u2014 did it come before I got here? Or is it late? \u2014 since there is nothing to indicate when the next bus is expected. But they can only do so much at one time, especially given the perennial budget problems.\nSo, props to Dan Grabauskas for putting the T on a better path. Now I know why Mr. Darius had such faith in him when he ran for state treasurer.\n< Previous Interval Library\nNext > Free audiobook (at the moment)\n4 thoughts on \u201cNew MBTA website\u201d\nI\u2019m a big fan of the T upgrades too. Despite everyone\u2019s griping, it will ultimately be a much better system. I used to get a bus pass because a combo pass was just too pricey, but this new LinkPass is just about worth the money what with the fare hike for individual rides. My biggest complaint so far is that the new fare boxes on the buses and the Green Line are very slow to suck in your card and spit it back out, so it creates delays as people are trying to get on the bus. Hopefully with the CharlieCard passes next month, the tap-and-go technology will speed up the process.\nthere is a new blog on the T at http://www.charlieonthembta.blogspot.com some very interesting stuff there\nDespite some improvements, I\u2019ve still got a few grumblings.\nFirst of all, the thing about being able to buy a monthly pass from the 15th to the following 14th has been on the MBTA site for ages, and it\u2019s never been true in any practical sense. So don\u2019t count on it.\nAlso, they\u2019ve still done nothing to account for the fact that there are many of us who live within the city of Boston who end up having to pay more for a monthly pass than people coming in from Quincy or Alewife, because we\u2019re dependent on the commuter rail. I live less than 5 miles from Simmons, yet I pay $3.25 each way ($106 monthly before the Simmons discount) to get to school, while someone coming twice as far from Braintree can do it for $2.50 (or $79 monthly under the old combo plus pass structure).\nI\u2019ll stop whining now, but it really is irritating.\nMichael B. Klein says:\nUpdate: I bought my (non-Simmons-subsidized) January pass today. $135, up from $106. Grr.",

        "raw_content": "Three Clever Ways To Save Money This Summer\nAs the weather gets warmer, it seems that everyone embraces the idea of change. Out with the old and in with the new, as they say! In terms of your bank account, this might mean new spending habits. Research shows that most consumers actually begin to spend more money when it\u2019s nicer outside. If we think about this, it seems to make sense. Think of all the vacations, weddings, home renovations and other expenses that people typically prefer to make on when it\u2019s nice outside. Some research has even shown that people are in better moods when it\u2019s sunny outside and this correlates to making more purchases. But, if we know that the weather correlates with our spending decisions, we can also start to mitigate this effect taking on a new summer savings regimen, as well! To that end, here are three clever ways you can try to save money this summer:\nThe $1 or $5 Trick\nThis tip is actually a very simple one, but many people don\u2019t usually think of it. Here\u2019s how it works: each time you make a purchase this summer, look at your change. Any time you see either a $1 or a $5 bill (you decide which, or even use both!), put it away in a jar. Then, by the end of the summer, you\u2019ll be shocked how much you can save! Plus, this trick will be extra useful for people who don\u2019t typically pay for things in cash \u2013 by pushing yourself to use cash, you can avoid the common feeling of swiping your cards and forgetting how much you\u2019ve actually spent. Effectively, this tip will help you to be more conscious of how much you spend and how much you save, at the same time!\nTake Advantage of Nice Weather\nAs we mentioned, the summer is a great time for people to get outside, especially to spend time with friends and family! However, this fact does not mean that you have to pay for every event you go to. Instead, take advantage of the nice weather and the free events that your city offers. Oftentimes, you will be able to find free concerts, movies, and other events nearby if you search for them online! By doing your research, you can end up spending some great quality time outside without spending a dime.\nUse A Spending Tracker App\nFinally, download an app to track your expenses this summer. As people typically spend more in the warmer months, it\u2019s possible that you could be spending more money than normal without even noticing. Instead of falling victim to this increased spending, you can minimize it by keeping a log of the purchases you make. For some of us, the easiest way to do this is by downloading a spending tracker app. If you use a tracking app for the first month of summer, then, you might be able to notice areas where you\u2019re over-spending and work to avoid this in the coming months. You might even find that this kind of simple log is something you want to keep doing in the future!\nOf course, there are many other ways you can try to save money this summer, but these are just a few easy ideas to get you started. With the money you save, you might even find that you can allocate some extra funds to your investments!",

        "raw_content": "Influenza; Strep throat; Bird flu; Avian influenza\nCommon Cold and Influenza\nColds and influenza (flu) are respiratory tract infections caused by airborne viruses:\nThe common cold is caused by more than 200 viruses. Rhinoviruses are the most common cause.\nInfluenza in humans is caused mainly by two viruses: influenza A and influenza B. There are many different strains and flu viruses constantly mutate.\nColds and the flu can share similar symptoms such as stuffed up or runny nose but there are also differences:\nFlu symptoms are usually more severe than the cold\nFever is common with the flu but rare with colds\nHeadache and extreme exhaustion are more common in flu than colds\nSore throat is more common with colds than flu\nThe viruses that cause colds and flu are spread by direct contact with secretions or by being close to an infected person who coughs or sneezes. You can reduce the risk of catching these germs if you:\nFrequently wash your hands and use hand sanitizer.\nAvoid touching your hands to your eyes, mouth, or nose.\nClean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces and objects.\nAvoid crowded environments during cold and flu season.\nGet a flu vaccine.\nThe best way to avoid getting influenza is to get an annual flu vaccine. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone over the age of 6 months receive a flu vaccine every year, with rare exceptions. There are two types of flu vaccines:\nInjectable flu vaccines (flu shots) use inactivated (killed) viruses or a recombinant viral protein. Flu shots may either protect against 3 strains of influenza (trivalent) or 4 strains (quadrivalent). Some high-dose or adjuvant-containing flu shots are recommended specifically for people over age 65.\nNasal spray flu vaccines use live attenuated (weakened) influenza viruses (LAIV).\nColds and flu are usually treated by resting and drinking lots of fluids. Most cases of flu and colds resolve by themselves within a few weeks. However, some people are at increased risk for developing serious influenza complications. They include young children, older adults, pregnant women, and people with chronic health conditions.\nThe CDC recommends antiviral drugs for the treatment and chemoprophylaxis of influenza:\nRecommended antiviral drugs are oseltamivir (Tamiflu), zanamivir (Relenza), and Peramivir (Rapivab).\nAntiviral drugs can reduce symptom severity and shorten the duration of illness by 1 to 2 days. They work best when started within 2 days of symptom onset. These drugs have a number of side effects.\nAntibiotics are not used to treat viral infections like the flu, but may be used if secondary bacterial infections develop.\nThe common cold and flu (influenza) are respiratory tract infections that are caused by airborne viruses. Colds and flu primarily affect the upper respiratory tract (nose, sinuses, and throat). The flu can also affect the lower respiratory tract (airways and lungs).\nThe viruses that cause colds and flu are generally spread by:\nDirect contact with secretions (such as hand-to-mouth)\nInhaling the virus after an infected person coughs or sneezes\nThe common cold (medically known as rhinopharyngitis or nasopharyngitis) is the most common upper respiratory tract infection. More than 200 different viruses can cause colds. The most common infectious agents for the common cold are rhinoviruses. Less common viral causes include coronaviruses, adenoviruses, influenza, and parainfluenzas.\nCold symptoms develop 1 to 3 days after being exposed to the virus and usually resolve within 10 days. Cold symptoms are nearly always less severe than those of the flu.\nThe flu is caused by the influenza virus. There are two main types:\nInfluenza A is the most widespread flu virus. It can infect birds, pigs, and humans (and a few other mammals). Influenza A is the major cause of global outbreaks of flu (pandemics).\nInfluenza B virus infects only humans. It is less common and generally causes less severe illness than type A.\nInfluenza A is further categorized by subtypes based on two proteins that occur on the surface of the viruses: hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). There are 18 \"HA\" subtypes and 11 \"NA\" subtypes. Therefore multiple surface protein combinations are possible. For example, an H3N2 subtype of influenza A virus will have the HA 3 and NA 2 proteins on its surface. Influenza A viruses are also categorized by their hosts (humans, birds, and swine). All influenza A viruses can infect birds, but only a few circulate in human populations.\nTwo particularly important and serious human influenza A viruses are H1N1 and H3N2. The annual seasonal flu vaccine always includes an influenza A H1N1 strain, an influenza A H3N2 strain, and one or two influenza B strains. (Influenza B viruses are not subtyped.) Unfortunately, influenza A frequently mutates and in some years the vaccine is not as effective.\nInfluenza A viruses are commonly found in wild birds, especially water fowl. These avian (bird) flu viruses sometimes cause outbreaks in domestic poultry such as chickens, ducks, and geese. Since the early 2000s there have been several of these outbreaks reported in Asian countries. While most bird flu virus strains are relatively harmless, a few develop into \"highly pathogenic avian influenza,\" which can be very deadly for domesticated poultry and, in some cases, people.\nMost of the time, avian flu stays contained within bird populations. However, some of these strains can be transmitted directly from birds to people and cause serious or even fatal illness. Avian influenza H5N1 and H7N9 are two bird flu viruses that have infected humans. Both viruses can cause serious, and fatal, disease due to pneumonia and respiratory distress.\nMost cases of transmission involve people who come into direct contact with infected birds. In their current form, avian influenza viruses do not easily spread from person to person. However, if the viruses continue to mutate, more cases of human transmission of avian flu may occur, which would increase the possibility of a global outbreak (pandemic).\nInfluenza A viruses also infect pigs. These swine influenza viruses do not normally spread to people. However, pigs are susceptible to flu viruses found in both birds and people. When pigs are infected with bird flu, their bodies can act as \"mixing bowls\" to create new strains that can be passed between people.\nThe 2009 H1N1 pandemic occurred from a new virus that emerged from a combination of bird, pig, and human strains. It spread as the virus passed from pigs to humans, and then from people to people. H1N1 is now established as a human seasonal flu virus that also circulates in pigs.\nColds and the flu tend to occur more often in the winter. In the northern hemisphere, flu season typically starts in October and lasts into mid-March.\nColds and flu are more likely to be transmitted in winter because people spend more time indoors and are exposed to higher concentrations of airborne viruses. Dry winter weather also dries up nasal passages, making them more susceptible to viruses.\nYou cannot get colds or flu by getting cold, wearing insufficiently warm clothes in warm weather, or going outside with wet hair.\nEveryone is at risk for colds and the flu, but certain people have a greater risk for experiencing complications.\nYoung children (under age 4) and older adults (over age 65) have a higher risk for colds and flu and their associated complications.\nPeople who have certain medical conditions or treatments are at increased risk for complications from cold and flu. They include:\nAIDS, cancer and other conditions that weaken the immune system\nAsthma, chronic lung disease, or other respiratory conditions\nSeizure disorders (epilepsy) and other neurological disorders (stroke)\nHeart disease, diabetes, and other chronic conditions\nPregnancy, especially in 2nd and 3rd trimesters\nMedications, such as long-term steroid use\nColds and flu usually cause mild illness with symptoms resolving within 7 to 10 days. In some cases, especially with people who have existing health issues, these viruses can cause more serious health problems.\nColds and flu can put extra stress on inflamed airways and can worsen asthma attacks. Problems with wheezing may persist for weeks after a cold or flu. People with asthma also have an increased risk for bronchitis and pneumonia complications.\nEar infections such as acute otitis media (AOM) are caused by bacteria, but viruses can set the stage for a bacterial infection. In fact, preventing colds and influenza is one of the best ways to prevent ear infections. Rhinoviruses and influenza viruses can cause the membranes along the walls of the inner ear passages to swell and obstruct the airways. If this inflammation blocks the narrow Eustachian tube, the middle ear may not drain properly. Fluid builds up and becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and subsequent infection.\nSinusitis is an inflammation or infection of the sinuses, the air-filled chambers in the skull that are located around the nose. Acute sinusitis typically starts with the common cold virus. A cold can set the stage for sinusitis by causing inflammation and congestion in the nasal passages, leading to obstruction in the sinuses. When the sinuses cannot drain properly, bacteria can multiply within the mucus lining, causing sinusitis. If sinusitis persists for more than 12 weeks, it is called chronic sinusitis.\nBronchitis is swelling and inflammation of the bronchial tubes that carry air to the lungs. The swelling narrows the airways, causing a deep mucus-producing cough and making it harder to breathe. Acute bronchitis lasts from 2 to 10 days and is usually always preceded by a cold or flu.\nPneumonia is one of the most dangerous complications of influenza. Young children, older adults, and people with chronic health conditions or immune system problems are at greatest risk for pneumonia. The flu virus can directly cause viral pneumonia, and lead to secondary bacterial infections that cause bacterial pneumonia.\nYoung children with influenza are at risk for febrile seizures. In rare cases, influenza is associated with inflammation of the brain (encephalitis). Reye syndrome is a dangerous condition that can cause brain damage and liver function problems. It can occur when children with the flu are given aspirin. (Never give a child aspirin unless told to do so by a health care provider.)\nSymptoms of colds and flu usually emerge 1 to 4 days after exposure to the virus:\nA cold nearly always begins with throat irritation and nasal congestion and sneezing. Most symptoms resolve within 10 days, but cough can last up to 2 weeks.\nThe flu usually begins rapidly with chills, muscle aches, fatigue, and fever, in addition to symptoms similar to the common cold. Children may experience vomiting and diarrhea. Most symptoms subside after a few days. Cough and fatigue may linger for several weeks.\nDifferentiating between a cold and flu can be difficult. Cold symptoms are nearly always less severe than those of the flu.\nComparing Colds and Flus\nCommon and high (100 to 104\u00b0F [37.8 to 40\u00b0C], can be higher in young children); typically lasts 3 days\nMild, if they occur at all\nUsual and often severe\nUsual, and may be accompanied by extreme exhaustion; can last 2 to 3 weeks\nChest discomfort and cough\nMild-to-moderate, hacking cough\nCommon, can become severe\nSource: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases\nColds and flu are generally diagnosed based on clinical symptoms. The presence of fever can help distinguish cold from flu. Your health care provider will also make note if your symptoms coincide during a time of active influenza outbreaks in your area.\nIn certain cases, your provider may want to do a laboratory exam for influenza by using a nasopharyngeal culture. This involves using a swab to take secretion samples from your nose or throat. This test should be done within 4 days of your first symptoms.\nSome tests using nasopharyngeal samples can produce results within 15 minutes. However, these rapid tests often produce false negative results (indicating no influenza when influenza is present) when flu activity is high, and false positive results (indicating influenza when no influenza is present) when flu activity is low. In addition, most of these tests do not distinguish between influenza A or B or provide information on influenza A subtypes.\nSymptoms of allergic rhinitis include nasal obstruction and congestion, which can be similar to the symptoms of a cold. Allergic rhinitis is not caused by a virus. It is caused by an immune system reaction triggered by exposure to an allergen.\nAn in-depth report on the causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of common nasal allergies. Nasal allergies can be associated with sinus infla...\nSome differences between colds and allergic rhinitis symptoms are:\nAllergic rhinitis symptoms begin right after exposure to an allergen (such as pollen, grass, or dust mites). Colds or flu develop several days after exposure to a virus\nAllergic rhinitis symptoms last as long as you are exposed to the allergen. Cold and flu symptoms generally last 2 to 14 days\nThe nasal discharge in allergic rhinitis is usually clear. In colds or flu it is yellow\nColds and flu are often accompanied by aches and pain. A fever is a definite sign that the condition is a cold or flu and not allergic rhinitis.\nOther Respiratory Viruses\nOther types of viruses can cause symptoms similar to influenza. They include respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human parainfluenza viruses (HPIVs). RSV and parainfluenzas are common causes of respiratory infections and pneumonia in babies and young children, but these viruses can also affect adults.\nStrep throat is a bacterial infection caused by group A Streptococcus. It produces a severe sore throat, which can be treated with antibiotics. (Antibiotics are not helpful for treating viral infections, including the sore throat caused by colds and flu.)\nThe viruses that cause colds and flu are transmitted through the air. You can catch a cold or flu when you breathe in tiny airborne droplets from the coughs or sneezes of someone who is sick. You can also catch a cold or flu if you touch something with the virus on it and then touch your mouth, nose, or eyes.\nSymptoms of colds and flu start about 1 to 4 days after the virus enters your body. You can be contagious to others a day before symptoms begin and even for a few days after they begin to fade. Most symptoms typically last about a week. You are most contagious when your symptoms are at their worst.\nPreventing the Spread of Colds and Flu\nYou can reduce your chances of getting sick (and prevent infecting others when you are sick) if you:\nFrequently wash your hands with soap and water.\nUse hand sanitizer.\nUse paper towels instead of sharing cloth towels.\nDisinfect your environment by cleaning commonly touched surfaces and objects.\nGet an annual flu vaccine.\nIf you are sick with a cold or flu, you can reduce your chance of infecting others by:\nStaying home when you are sick and for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone.\nCoughing or sneezing into a tissue or into the crease of your elbow (not the air).\nAvoiding sharing food, utensils, cups, or plates.\nWearing a face mask when you are around people.\nThe best way to avoid getting influenza is to get a seasonal flu vaccine. (There is no vaccine for the common cold.) The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends annual flu vaccination for everyone age 6 months and older.\nThe flu vaccine is available as an injection (flu shot) or as a nasal spray. There are many types of these vaccines. Some vaccines are only appropriate for certain people based on age and other factors. If you have a severe allergy to eggs, or have certain chronic health conditions, talk to your health care provider before getting vaccinated. There are flu shots available that do not contain egg substances.\nThe flu vaccine is reformulated every year based on a prediction of which strains of flu are most likely to occur. Flu viruses constantly mutate and change in a process called antigenic drift. (Antigens are foreign molecules that the immune system specifically recognizes as alien and targets for attack.) Unfortunately, sometimes flu strains can change within the course of a flu season, so in some years the vaccine is not as effective.\nEven a mismatched vaccine can still provide protection against related viruses. A flu vaccine contains 3 or 4 flu strains, so you will always be getting some protection. Even if you catch the flu, a vaccine can help by giving you a milder case of flu than you would have had if you were not vaccinated.\nYou should try to get a flu vaccine as soon as it becomes available for the season (usually in September or October), but even if you get it later in the season it can still help. It takes about 2 weeks after you get vaccinated for the vaccine to take full effect.\nFlu Shot vs Nasal Spray Vaccine\nMost people get a flu shot. A nasal spray vaccine (LAIV4) can also be used in healthy children or adults when the seasonal CDC guidelines indicate it.\nThe nasal spray vaccine is called a live, attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV). It contains live, but weakened, flu viruses. Flu shots contain inactivated (not live) viruses or recombinant viral proteins.\nFlu shots contain and protect against either 3 (trivalent) or 4 (quadrivalent) viruses. The LAIV nasal spray contains 4 viruses. Flu shots also come in different dose strengths. A high-dose flu shot is available specifically for people age 65 and older.\nA trivalent flu vaccine protects against 2 influenza A viruses (H1N1 and H3N2) and one influenza B virus. A quadrivalent flu vaccine protects against the 2 influenza A viruses plus 2 influenza B viruses. The addition of a second influenza B virus provides broader protection.\nThe most common side effects after a flu vaccine are soreness at the injection site (for a flu shot), low-grade fever, and body aches. These symptoms usually subside within 2 days. In rare cases, people can have an allergic reaction. You cannot get the flu from a flu vaccine and there is no link between vaccines and autism spectrum disorder.\nMost cases of colds and flu can be treated at home by resting and drinking fluids. Home remedies and some medications cannot help cure cold or flu, but may help provide symptom relief.\nYou should contact your health care provider if:\nYour symptoms get worse or do not improve after 7 to 10 days\nYou are at risk for having complications\nPeople who are at risk for complications include those with chronic health conditions (asthma, diabetes, heart disease, and obesity), people over age 65, children younger than age 5, and pregnant women.\nIf a high-risk person has the flu, their provider may recommend an antiviral medication. Antibiotics are not prescribed for treating viral infections such as colds and flu. They may be prescribed if a secondary bacterial infection develops.\nThere are many simple home remedies that can help you feel better. They include:\nRest as much as you can to help your body fight off the infection.\nConsume hot fluids such as tea, broths, and soup. There is evidence that chicken soup can indeed help with mucous congestion and other cold and flu symptoms. Ginger or peppermint teas can be very soothing.\nAdd honey to tea or hot lemon water. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends honey to treat coughs in children. However, honey cannot be administered to infants under 12 months of age, due to the risk of infant botulism.\nGargle with salt water to treat sore throat. Throat sprays or lozenges can also help.\nTry steam inhalation for cough and sinuses. Place a towel over your head while leaning over a bowl or pot of hot (not boiling) water. Breathe deeply. You can add herbs or essential oils such as thyme, rosemary, eucalyptus, peppermint, or bay leaves.\nUse a vaporizer or humidifier.\nDo not smoke and avoid secondhand smoke.\nDo not drink alcohol. Alcohol induces dehydration and may interfere with cold medicines.\nNasal Washes\nBefore reaching for a decongestant medication, try doing a nasal wash with a saline (salt water) solution.\nA saline solution can be purchased in a spray bottle at a drug store or made at home. (Mix 1 teaspoon or 5 mL of table, Kosher, or sea salt with 2 cups or 480 mL of warm water. Some people add a pinch of baking soda.) If you prepare your own saline solution, use bottled or boiled water, not plain tap water, to avoid potential infections with a dangerous type of water-dwelling parasite called Naegleria fowleri. Perform the nasal wash 1 to 2 times a day. It can help moisten nasal passages and remove mucus.\nA simple method for administering a homemade nasal wash is:\nLean over the sink head down.\nPour some solution into the palm of the hand and inhale it through the nose, one nostril at a time.\nSpit out the remaining solution.\nGently blow the nose.\nNeti pots have also become popular in recent years. Nasal irrigation with a saline solution through a Neti pot involves:\nLean over the sink with your head tilted to one side.\nInsert the spout of the Neti pot in the upper nostril.\nSlowly pour the salt water into your nose while continuing to breathe through your mouth.\nThe water will flow through the upper nostril and out through the lower nostril.\nWhen the water finishes dripping out, blow your nose.\nReverse the tilt of your head and repeat the process with the other nostril.\nAntiviral medications are given to treat influenza (not the common cold). These drugs are available only by prescription. They should be started within 2 days of symptom onset, although they can still be helpful if started later. These drugs can reduce symptom severity and help shorten the duration of illness by 1 to 2 days.\nAnyone with influenza is a potential candidate for an antiviral drug, but these medications are most important for people who are severely ill or at risk for influenza complications. This includes young children, pregnant women, and people with compromised immune systems or chronic health conditions. People at risk for complications should receive immediate treatment with an antiviral drug without waiting for diagnostic testing to confirm influenza.\nThe Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends the following antiviral drugs for the treatment of influenza:\nOseltamivir (Tamiflu). Available for adults and children as a pill or liquid that is taken for 5 days.\nZanamivir (Relenza). Available for adults and children and administered by oral inhalation for 5 days.\nPeramivir (Rapivab). Administered to adults intravenously in a single dose.\nThese drugs are classified as neuraminidase inhibitors.\nAntiviral drugs are modestly effective for treating influenza but have a number of side effects. For this reason, they are generally reserved for people most at risk for serious complications.\nSide effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, headache, and behavioral changes. Zanamivir should not be used by people with breathing problems like asthma or COPD.\nOTC Cough and Cold Medicines\nOver-the-counter (OTC) medications are available without a prescription. Combination OTC cough and cold medicines contain more than one medicine, such as decongestants and antihistamines or pain relievers. (Antihistamines are often included in nighttime cold products to produce sleepiness.). Read the labels carefully to make sure you do not take too much of any one medicine. Ask your health care provider which cold medications are safe for you.\nThe FDA advises that cough and cold medicines should not be given to children younger than age 4. These drugs can cause serious side effects in young children.\nDecongestants are drugs that shrink blood vessels in the nasal passages. They may help dry up a runny or stuffy nose. There are two types of decongestants:\nOral decongestants contain pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine. Products that contain pseudoephedrine are kept behind the counter to prevent potential use for the illegal manufacturing of methamphetamine.\nNasal decongestants come in long-acting and short-acting forms. Long-acting brands often contain oxymetazoline and can last for up to 12 hours. Short-acting brands often contain phenylephrine and last for up to 4 hours. Ipatropium bromide can help relieve a runny nose, but not congestion.\nNasal decongestants are applied directly into the nasal passages. Nasal forms work faster than oral decongestants and have fewer side effects. However, nasal decongestants should never be used for more than 3 days in a row due to risks for rebound congestion.\nOral decongestants provide temporary relief for up to 4 hours. They can cause side effects such as nervousness, dizziness, and sleepiness. People who have high blood pressure should never use standard pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine decongestants. They should instead use antihistamines or combination products such as Coricidin HBP, which contains the antihistamine chlorpheniramine.\nIf you have high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, thyroid disease, prostate problems, or glaucoma talk to your health care provider before taking any oral or nasal decongestant. You may be at risk for side effects and complications.\nThere are two types of cough medicines:\nCough suppressants (antitussives) block the cough reflex. They often contain dextromethorphan.\nCough expectorants loosen and thin mucus so you can cough it up. Guaifenesin is the ingredient used in expectorants.\nSome cough products also contain decongestants and antihistamines that may alleviate other cold/flu symptoms. Antihistamines may make you sleepy. Decongestants may actually worsen cough by thickening mucus.\nStudies have questioned the effectiveness of OTC cough remedies. Medications that contain both a cough suppressant and an expectorant are not useful and should be avoided. As noted, never give cough or cold medicine to a child under 4 years without a pediatrician's approval.\nIf your cough lasts for more than 3 weeks, or is accompanied by shortness of breath, contact your provider. A lingering cough may be a sign of bronchitis or pneumonia.\nFever or Pain Relievers\nMany people take medications to reduce the mild pain and fever associated with colds and flu. The most common types of over-the-counter pain medicines are acetaminophen (Tylenol, generic) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs include ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, generic), naproxen (Aleve, generic), and aspirin.\nImportant precautions for pain relievers include:\nAspirin and aspirin-containing products should never be given to children or adolescents who have the flu or chicken pox. Reye syndrome is a serious and potentially fatal brain condition that can occur when children with viral infections are given aspirin. Never give aspirin to your child unless directed to do so by a provider.\nNSAIDs are generally safe when taken for a short period of time (less than 10 days). However, if you have heart conditions, high blood pressure, or history of stomach bleeding, talk to your provider.\nAcetaminophen in high dosages can cause serious liver injury. When taking combination medicines, always check the ingredients for the presence of acetaminophen, and make sure never to take more than the recommended daily dose of 3 grams (3,000 mg) in a single day.\nAlways check product labels for recommended dosages for adults and children.\nVitamins, Minerals, and Herbal Supplements\nVitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is an antioxidant. It is naturally found in fruits and vegetables, especially citrus fruits, cantaloupe, kiwi, bell peppers, tomatoes, and leafy greens.\nFor many years, vitamin C has been a popular remedy for the common cold. Research suggests:\nFor most people, vitamin C supplements or vitamin C-rich foods do not reduce the risk of getting the common cold.\nThe recommended daily allowance of vitamin C for adults is 90 mg/day for men and 75 mg/day for women. High doses may increase the risk for kidney stones. Doses over 2,000 mg/day may cause nausea and diarrhea. Large amounts of vitamin C can interact with many medications including aspirin, acetaminophen, and blood-thinner drugs like warfarin.\nZinc is a trace mineral that helps strengthen the immune system. It is found naturally in high-protein foods (red meat), nuts, whole grains, and legumes.\nZinc lozenges are often marketed as cold remedies but it is unclear how effective they are. A review of 16 studies suggested that when started within 24 hours of symptom onset, oral zinc may shorten the duration of colds. However zinc lozenges do not appear to be helpful for preventing colds or reducing symptom severity.\nOral zinc has a number of side effects including bad taste and nausea. High doses of oral zinc (more than 40 mg/day) can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and serious side effects. Zinc can interact with a number of medications, including antibiotics. Zinc nose spray is not recommended because it can cause a loss of smell.\nPopular \"immune-boosting\" herbal remedies for colds and flu include Echinacea, goldenseal, elderberry, and astragulus. There is little evidence for their benefit. However, peppermint and ginger teas can aid digestion and be soothing (although not curative) if you are feeling sick. People who take herbal supplements should be aware that these products are not regulated by the FDA. There is no guarantee that the products you buy actually contain the herbs listed on the label.\nU.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention -- www.cdc.gov/flu\nNational Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases -- www.niaid.nih.gov\nWorld Health Organization -- www.who.int/influenza/en\nAdvisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) -- www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/index.html\nAllan GM, Arroll B.

The officer allegedly grabbed Justin by his right arm, and Justin responded by yelling, \u201cWhat the f\u2013k are you doing?\u201d\nBieber, who did not have a valid driver\u2019s license, was then placed under arrest for DUI. He admitted to the officer that he had smoked marijuana \u201call day,\u201d had drunk a beer earlier than evening, and had been taking prescription antidepressants.\nJustin\u2019s friend, R&B singer Khalil Sharief, was also charged with DUI. The arrest was the culmination of a sad, bizarre week for Bieber, whose Los Angeles home was raided by police on Jan. 14. Contradicting press reports claim Bieber\u2019s mansion was littered with drug paraphernalia and cookie jars filled with weed.\nMeanwhile, Justin is reportedly being urged by friends to go to rehab for his growing addiction to prescription drugs, sizzurp, and weed.",

        "raw_content": "Funding Local Tech\tBy Kelly Kearsley / July 24, 2018\nFrom EDCO:\nThis exit offered an extraordinary return in a very short period of time, marking the third exit for a Bend Venture Fund. The two previous exits were Elemental Software and Jama Software from the 2007 and 2008 BVC, LLC portfolios, respectively.\nJason Moyer, the current BVC fund manager, says that it\u2019s unusual to have a meaningful exit opportunity this early in an investment. Brian Vierra, EDCO\u2019s venture catalyst says that the BVC LLC returns are among the best in the angel investing market.\n\u201cIf an investor had participated in every LLC since the first fund in 2006, they would have received a \u2018cash on cash\u2019 return of approximately 4x. They would also still have a portfolio of 12 companies, many of which have undergone financings at significant increases in valuation,\u201d Vierra says.\nOver the past few years, the BVC, LLC funds have been typically $150,000-$350,000 in size. They are just the beginning of the investment effort that is undertaken by the conference each year. Other Angel and Venture funds invest in parallel to the LLCs, deploying amounts in excess of $4,000,000 in past years.\nCongratulations to RFPIO and to the BVC investors.",

        "raw_content": "If it Ain\u2019t Broke, Break It?\nYou know, try as I might I\u2019m just not a big fan of change. Unless of course I\u2019m driving the change. But I\u2019m also fully aware that perhaps the most dangerous words in business are, \u201cbecause we\u2019ve always done it that way.\u201d\nSo the first part of this post is written for me and those of you who share similar sentiments about change. We need to get the heck over it and realize that the pace of change is only going to continue to accelerate. We can either get on board that bus or that bus is going to run us over.\nImagine the world if everyone lived with that \u201cwe\u2019ve always done it that way\u201d philosophy. No cars, no airplanes, no TV, no internet, and oh my gosh, no cell phones. (I guess no phones for that matter)\nObviously we only need to think for a few seconds to realize that change can be very good. The challenge for many people is stopping to think for those few seconds. The reality is that almost everything we use in our daily lives will one day be replaced by something even better.\nIf you can\u2019t embrace change you can\u2019t grow and if you can\u2019t grow you can\u2019t get better. The first thing you may want to consider changing is your instinct to resist change. Replace it with an open mind and at least a \u201cwe\u2019ll see\u201d attitude, you never know, you may just be pleasantly surprised.\nNow for the second part of this post. It is written for those of you just itching to change stuff because you can. You should take a quick lesson from Winston Churchill who said, \u201cthere is nothing wrong with change, if it\u2019s in the right direction.\u201d\nChange for the sake of change is seldom good change. Before you change what\u2019s worked for a long time you may want to consider exactly why it\u2019s worked for a long time. While I\u2019d agree, there very possibly is a better way, make certain you\u2019re not also discarding the part of a process that works and replacing it with an untested process that may not.\n\u201cWe\u2019ve always done it that way\u201d is a proven method of failure. \u201cLet\u2019s blow up what works and start over\u201d often is as well.\nMoving forward with little or no knowledge of your starting point is a quick path to nowhere. Go ahead and change, just be certain that your \u201cbetter\u201d direction indeed has a solid, realistic chance to be better.\nAccepting ChangeChangeChange Direction in LifeChange ManagementDealing with Change\n2 thoughts on \u201cIf it Ain\u2019t Broke, Break It?\u201d",

        "title": "With Bad Economy Jurors Get Hostile | Mediation Matters",
        "raw_content": "With Bad Economy Jurors Get Hostile\nFebruary 15, 2010 in mediation | Tags: afford, anger, arbitration, attorney, disatisfaction, economy, financial, juror, jury, jury duty, jury service, los angeles, mediation, negotiation, negotiator, prospective, recession, times, unhappy\nSince the recession has hit California, I have been noticing a trend that jurors are increasingly angry at the participants who brought them to court. The jurors are facing issues of putting food on the table and the last thing they want to do is consider a litigant\u2019s \u201cright to a jury\u201d when they are worried about where the next meal will come from.\nIn many mediations, I have discussed this issue. Today, the L.A. Times ran an article addressing this very issue. It is important to note that this story appears to reflect a very large percentage of the population in Los Angeles and doesn\u2019t fare well for what can happen in a jury trial.\nSpurned in his effort to get out of jury duty, salesman Tony Prados turned his attention to the case that could cost him three weeks\u2019 pay: A Los Angeles County sheriff\u2019s deputy was suing his former sergeant, alleging severe emotional distress inflicted by lewd and false innuendo that he was gay.\nPrados, an ex-Marine, leaned forward in the jury box and asked in a let-me-get-this-straight tone of voice: \u201cHe\u2019s brave enough to go out and get shot at by anyone but he couldn\u2019t handle this?\u201d he said of the locker-room taunting.\nFellow jury candidate Robert Avanesian, who had also unsuccessfully sought dismissal on financial hardship grounds, chimed in: \u201cI think severe emotional distress is what is happening in Haiti. I don\u2019t think you could have such severe emotional distress from that,\u201d he said of the allegations in the deputy\u2019s case.\nThe spontaneous outbursts of the reluctant jurors just as Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge James R. Dunn was about to swear them in emboldened others in the jury pool to express disdain for the case and concerns about their ability to be fair, and to ratchet up the pathos in their claims of facing economic ruin if forced to sit for the three-week trial.\nIn this time of double-digit unemployment and shrinking benefits for those who do have jobs, courts are finding it more difficult to seat juries for trials running more than a day or two. And in extreme cases, reluctance has escalated into rebellion, experts say.\nAfter three days of mounting insurrection, lawyers for both the deputy and the sergeant waived their right to a jury trial and left the verdict up to Dunn.\n\u201cWe can\u2019t have a disgruntled jury,\u201d said attorney Gregory W. Smith, who represents Deputy Robert Lyznick in the lawsuit against his former supervisor. He called the panel \u201cscary\u201d and too volatile for either side to trust.\nMoney woes inflicted by the recession have spurred more hardship claims, especially by those called for long cases, say jury consultants and courtroom administrators. More than a quarter of all qualified jurors were released on hardship grounds last year, according to court statistics. And judges say they have seen more people request such dismissals in the last year.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of tension, a lot more stress people are dealing with these days,\u201d said Gloria Gomez, director of juror services for the Los Angeles County Superior Court.\nIn Lyznick\u2019s suit against the county, Dunn granted hardship dismissals for more than half of the 65 people sent to his courtroom. In a neighboring courtroom, where Judge Robert H. O\u2019Brien was about to try an asbestos case, 66 of 107 prospective jurors were excused for financial difficulties before the individual questioning, or voir dire, got started.\n\u201cThe economic situation has really put attorneys and judges in an awkward position of having to say to someone who is the sole wage earner in a family or someone who is self-employed and doesn\u2019t get paid when they don\u2019t work that they have to serve, and we have more and more of those,\u201d said Jaine E. Fraser, a psychologist and jury consultant who sat in for the asbestos jury selection before the parties settled.\nPeople on the margins of society tend to be more sympathetic with victims bringing suit, and excluding them on hardship grounds can disadvantage plaintiffs, Fraser said. But it\u2019s also risky, she noted, to force people into jury service that will cut deeply into their paychecks.\nHere is what one person said about the jury process: \u201cI think with what is going on in the country, there are a lot of angry people,\u201d said retired Broadway actor Sammy Williams. \u201cMoney is such an issue and to give money to someone for results of a case, it\u2019s really important that they\u2019re getting it for a real reason, an important reason.\u201d\nMore and more, parties are recognizing that alternative forms of resolving their disputes are preferable. These alternatives including trial before the judge, arbitration and mediation.\nEven with 12.4% unemployment in California, the state unemployment office will not pay people their unemployment benefits for weeks when they\u2019re on jury duty. That\u2019s a big reason so many people are disgruntled when forced to serve.\nThis is a very interesting comment about unemployment. I was not aware of the unemployment rule regarding jury duty. What you say makes real sense. This creates an even more difficult scenario. Thanks for the info.\n\u00ab \u201cWe Do\u201d Are The Magic Words In Conflict Amongst Couples\nMediation Follow Up: What, Why and How \u00bb",

Squirrel Patrol\n4. Hay Fever Waltz\n6. 3 Part Invention\n8. Bob's Evil Twin\n9. Cruisin' Cleveland County\n11. Let's Make The Water Turn Black\n13. Battle Of Midriff Bulge\nPipeline Instrumental Review - Issue #54 2002\nby George Geddes\nThis is a gem of a find. An album of largely orignal compositions, and an assertion that \"there were no drum machines or sequencing devices used\" gets things off on the right foot. Terry Ware has been a working musician in the Southwest United States for over thirty years, working mainly in country rock, though he freely admits to influences such as Pete Townsend, Link Wray, the Beatles, Frank Zappa, Hendrix and Freddie King. The tracks here represent the instrumentals from his 1981 album Caffeine Dreams supplemented by tracks recorded in a home studio in the 80s. They are not in the least bit dated, however. With the exception of two Zappa numbers and a Bach three-part invention, all tracks are by Ware - and isn't The Battle Of Midriff Bulge just a great title? Terry plays guitar on all tracks, and contributes other instruments to several.\nTerry manages to cover a fairly wide spectrum, the emphasis is on melody and there is much good instrumental playing without any showing off. The opening track gets things off in a fairly straightforward manner, but then the jaunty Bob's Funhouse changes the mood. Squirrel Patrol (love the titles) is a good solid melody which could have been cut by either Shadows or Ventures in their own styles. Hay Fever Waltz is a jazzy little number, and the same four piece line-up also cut the first Zappa track. Around The Block, the folksy Bob's Evil Twin and laid-back Cruisin' are multi-tracked as is Drizzle which is reminiscent of Sky in places.\nThere's still lots of nice pickin' on the Zappa vocal track which contrast with Rita Longhofer's vocal and Dave Coe's sax. On TheWing is back to the multi-tracking, and the CD is rounded off - if you'll excuse the term - with the afore-mentioned Battle...\nwhich manages to be repetitive without becoming boring - there's even some sound effects in there. Given that these tracks were recorded over a period of time and some are over 20 years old, they do sound remarkably fresh. Enjoyable listening from a musician who is obviously highly professional. As you may have guessed, I liked it.\n20th Century Guitar Magazine Review - May, 2002 Issue\nby Robert Silverstein\nA local musical hero in his native Oklahoma, guitarist Terry Ware cut a number of guitar instrumental tracks back in the late 70s and 80s that for the longest time have remained unreleased until now. Recently, Ware took it upon himself to compile some of his unreleased pieces on a CD entitled \"Buffalo Tracks,\" which he released on his own OkieMotion Records. Guitar-wise Ware's sound falls somewhere between The Ventures, Steve Cropper, George Harrison and Frank Zappa. The 13 track album features a number of fine Ware originals which he balances with a pair of Zappa originals including a cool cover of Rank's great \"Peaches En Regalia\" as well as a Ware version of the 3 Part Invention by classical icon J.S. Bach. Several artists lend a hand including Jim Herbst (drums) and Marlin Butcher (bass), but for the most part Ware skillfully performs all the guitar parts as well as mellotron, organ, snare drum and piano. \"Buffalo Tracks\" sheds light on Ware's accomplished, yet sadly uncelebrated musical background.\nBio of sorts\nI'm a guitarist living in Norman, Oklahoma. I have played in bands and with singer/songwriters since 1965. I played guitar for Ray Wylie Hubbard from 1972-1978 and again from 1986-1997. I still perform with Ray at selected gigs. I also played with Jimmy LaFave from 1997-2000. I've also performed with numerous artists at my favorite live venue, the Blue Door in OKC, and elsewhere around the USA and Europe. I've been freelancing since April of 2000 and do my own instrumental shows on occasion. I'm somewhat of a musical misfit and have a variety of influences. I like The Beatles as well as Frank Zappa. I like the Stones as well as The Ventures. I like Jimi Hendrix as well as Don Rich. I like Freddie King as well as Link Wray. I like James Burton as well as Charlie Christian. I like Steve Cropper as well as Jimmy Webb. I think you get the idea...",

        "raw_content": "I was reading the low carb roundtable and one of the coaches of high performance athletes jokes about his athletes eating:\nWith my athletes, dinner is often [postworkout], so they eat a variety of things, often from a place with a red and gold clown as nutritional advisor.\nIt reminded me of something that most people don\u2019t appreciate. Most elite athletes are struggling financially and will succeed in spite of their terrible eating and nutrition habits, not necessarily because of them. The place you are much better getting advice and learning from is the older elite athlete. One who has had some kind of career/success in life and has the resources to make the \u201cright\u201d decisions about how to train, what to eat, etc.\nIt\u2019s in this older cohort of athletes, that we tend to see a much higher prevalence of VLCHF (ketogenic) or paleo diets. The studies have been done that show that world-class athletes of any age can thrive and perform well on a ketogenic diet. Just because the 23-year old dominator of this or that sport is on a \u201csee food\u201d diet, does not mean that that\u2019s necessarily the choice that will get you the best health or long-term performance.\nI don\u2019t know about you, but I know that my 36-year-old self would make a much much better athlete if I could instill the discipline, dedication, and habits I\u2019ve built over the years with the natural recovery I had at 23.\nThat said, I\u2019m performing better on almost every metric than I ever have and look forward to many years of increasing health and fitness. And even if you never get back to the fitness you had at 19, there are probably simple changes (though maybe not easy) you can make to be much fitter than you are today.\nImage courtesy: Win_Photography\nI\u2019ve been asked a bunch of times what is the hardest part of followin...",

        "raw_content": "Assessments of Learning Chapter Exam\nAssessments of Learning / Practice Exam\nThere are four types of performance assessments used in the classroom: achievement assessments, scholastic aptitude, specific aptitude and school-readiness assessments.\nQuestion 8 8. A _____ is an attribute (such as self-esteem, motivation and language proficiency) that is inferred from consistent behavior.\nQuestion 9 9. Which of the following statements is not correct?\nContent bias refers to factors surrounding the administration of the test that may impact the results.\nAn ecological assessment is a comprehensive process in which data is collected about how a child functions in different environments or settings.\nConstruct bias occurs when the construct measured yields significantly different results for test-takers from the original culture for which the test was developed and test-takers from a new culture, while item bias occurs because of poor use of grammar, choice of cultural phrases and poorly written assessment items.\nAn Individualized Education Plan is a document used in special education that is drawn up and agreed upon by teachers, parents, specialists, and (if possible) the student.\nA test that yields clear and systematic differences among the results of the test-takers is biased.\nQuestion 10 10. How can an ecological assessment help improve the educational performance of a student?\nIt can reveal if the child's behavior is affected by the expectations of an authority figure so that the student's support team can address this issue.\nIt can reveal if the child's behavior is affected by the physical environment so that the student's support team can address this issue.\nIt can reveal if the child's behavior is affected by the interactions with other people so that the student's support team can address this issue.\nAll the answers are correct.\nQuestion 11 11. High-stakes testing results can impact all of the following EXCEPT:\nStudent eligibility for extracurricular activities\nGraduation eligibility and grade promotion\nTeacher reappointments\nQuestion 12 12. According to the 68-95-99.7 rule _____.\napproximately 68% of all values lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean\napproximately 68% of all values lie within 3 standard deviations of the mean\napproximately all values lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean\nQuestion 13 13. Which of the following is not a type of norm-referenced score?\nEducational equivalent\nAge and grade equivalent\nQuestion 14 14. Which of the following indicates the percentage of peers in the norm group with raw scores less than or equal to a specific student's raw score?\nCumulative percentages\nQuestion 15 15. A formal, teacher-made assessment should be used to answer which of the following questions?\nIs John proficient on state history standards?\nDoes John need extra help on completing his assignments in history?\nHow well does John know this week's key history concepts?\nIs John paying attention in history class?\nQuestion 16 16. Which of the following is not a disadvantage of high-stakes assessments?\nThe tests may lead to inaccurate inferences of student performance, due to non-test factors, such as anxiety and motivation, of the test-taker.\nHigh-stakes testing does not assess higher-level critical thinking skills.\nTests are unable to highlight gaps in an individual student's knowledge, classroom achievement gaps or school achievement gaps.\nTeachers and educators are burdened with more standards to teach and end up teaching to the tests (as opposed to more individualized curriculum to meet student needs).\nSince each state can determine standards, different test criteria may lead to different overall conclusions on student and school achievement and performance.\nQuestion 17 17. Which of the following statements is correct?\nA normal distribution has most scores falling in the middle of the range, whereas a skewed distribution has most scores falling on one extreme end or the other.\nAccountability is defined as an obligation of educators to accept responsibility for students' performance on standardized assessments.\nTest anxiety, fatigue, and lack of attention have no impact on standardized testing.\nNorm-referenced score refers to a score on an assessment that specifically indicates what a student is capable of or what knowledge they possess.\nQuestion 18 18. Which of the following is not an advantage of standardized tests?\nStandardized testing is a reliable tool that can be used alone to evaluate schools and teachers.\nStandardized tests are practical, they're easy to administer and they consume less time to administer versus other assessments.\nStandardized tests are scored via computer, which frees up time for the educator. Furthermore, since scoring is completed by computer, it is objective and not subject to educator bias or emotions.\nQuestion 19 19.

Discover how this election changed American politics forever.\nLead-Up to the Election of 1828\nThe Election of 1824 left a bitter taste in the mouths of Andrew Jackson and his supporters. The 'corrupt bargain' that led to John Quincy Adams becoming president also led to four years of loyal but vocal opposition to Adams and rendered his presidency all but impotent. By the Election of 1828, Andrew Jackson was ready to try again.\nEvolution of the 2-Party System\nSeveral key events had changed the political landscape over the past four years. For example, prior to 1828, there were more than two political parties vying for influence, and Congressional caucuses chose candidates for presidents. While that did not always translate into large numbers of politically viable candidates, as was the case in 1824, it certainly created numerous distractions for any campaign.\nBut this time, the number of parties had been whittled down and consolidated to two: the Democrats, led by Andrew Jackson, and the National Republican Party, home to John Quincy Adams and essentially everyone else who was anti-Jackson. It was the evolution of the two-party system that we have today.\nBut this wasn't the only change. After securing his nomination, Adams had to choose a new running mate. But wait - what happened to Vice President John C. Calhoun? He had switched sides and become Jackson's running mate! Can you imagine today the Vice President abandoning his party's nominee to join the other side? It would be scandalous, and yet, in 1828, this was American presidential politics at its best.\nJackson Wins It All Thanks to the Common Man\nJackson's first victory may have been winning Calhoun away from Adams, but there were smaller, more important victories taking place in states across the country.\nChanges in state constitutions also led to more people being allowed to vote. For example, you no longer had to be a wealthy landowner. You still had to be a white male, however, so no women or non-whites were allowed, but it was progress. This change in voter qualifications would lead to record-breaking voter participation in the election. Up to 80% of qualified voters voted.\nIf 1824 was a watershed moment in American politics, the campaign of 1828 set the standard for mudslinging among the candidates. And this was no ordinary mudslinging: Adams was accused of misusing public funds, gambling in the White House, and splurging with tax money for his extravagant lifestyle. The attacks on Andrew Jackson were no less vicious. He was accused of being uneducated, reckless, and, well, a murderer! True, he had engaged in a duel years before in 1806 to protect the honor of his wife, but in those days, duels were not so unusual.\nThe candidates couldn't have been more different. Adams stayed off the campaign trail, preferring instead to remain in the White House and govern. Jackson was quite the opposite. A war hero, vaunted 'Indian fighter,' and a 'man of the people,' Jackson enjoyed the campaign trail and sought the support of the common folk, campaigning hard in the South, Mid-Atlantic, and Western states.\nThe hard work paid off. Andrew Jackson routed John Quincy Adams in the popular vote and the Electoral College, coasting to victory with 178 electoral votes to 83 and winning the popular vote by over 140,000.\nThe amity that usually returned after an election was resolved never materialized in 1828. Andrew Jackson refused to pay the customary courtesy call to outgoing president Adams, and Adams refused to attend the inauguration of Jackson. To make matters worse, Jackson lost his beloved wife before his inauguration. Many blamed the stress of the campaign and the vicious accusations against her and her husband. Jackson is quoted as saying he could forgive all insults against him but he would never forgive those directed at his loving wife.\nIt was a bitter end to a bitter campaign.\nWith the change in voter qualifications prior to the election of 1828, the Age of the Common Man had begun, and yet, all were not happy with this outcome. Many elite landowners had enjoyed political power and a monopoly on the vote. But now, others shared this right, and Jackson courted them, appealed to them, and welcomed them. In the minds of the common man, they had just elected one of their own as president.\nThroughout his presidency, Jackson would continue to champion the causes of the common man, including fighting against economic monopolies, changing the political nomination process from one of insider-only caucuses to national conventions open to all, and rejecting pork-barrel politics that had long been the mainstay of Washington, DC.\nSome, like the Maysville Road project, which had long been the pet project of none other than Henry Clay - a long-time rival of Jackson - were cut. Jackson vetoed the bill, and the veto came with a warning that any project that did not have all of America's interest in mind and did not conform strictly to the Constitution would not survive.\nThese and other actions did not make Old Hickory popular with the tea-and-crumpets crowd of DC but endeared him in the hearts and minds of the common man.\nThe election of 1828 had featured it all: mudslinging, party politics, populism, and war heroes. It ushered in the new age of the common man, giving him the vote and thus a voice. American politics would never be the same.\nIdentify the changes to the party system, Andrew Jackson's running mate, and voting laws that preceded the Election of 1828\nUnderstand how and why Jackson appealed to the 'common man'\nSummarize the causes Jackson did and did not favor during his presidency\nIlliteracy: The Downfall of American Society\nHow Educated Are American City-Dwellers?

        "raw_content": "\\ Tag: Plato\nPhilosopher. According to sources, Plato was born on or around May 21, 427 (or 428) B.C. in Athens, the son of Ariston and Perictione, both of Athenian aristocratic ancestry. He lived his whole life in Athens, although he traveled to Sicily and southern Italy on several occasions, and one story says he traveled to Egypt. [\u2026]\nThe philosopher Plato was the first to state about uniform, circular and regular movement of celestial bodies. In his works, we meet for the first time the planets named after the gods completely conterminous with Babylon. Plato was the first to formulate a problem for mathematicians: to find by means of what uniform and regular [\u2026]\nPlato\u2019s Theory of Forms\nVarious definitions on forms existed before, but Plato dug deeper than the definitions to question what form was. He argued that what he knows and what is known must exist in the same way. If there is a change then there would nothing to know and no one to know. He supposes that an object [\u2026]\nPlato\u2019s Allegory\nPlato\u2019s images of the soul as described above as: a rational soul (intellect), the spirited soul (will) and the appetitive soul (emotional). From this three, he justifies that it is a disadvantage to oneself to be unjust since the three souls must perform/function in harmony for a common good as a whole. The Allegory of [\u2026]\nIf it is concluded after a serious reflection that the war which we have been engaged in is unjust, the advice that Socrates might give us is that compensatory justice should be enforced. That is, we should compensate, give benefits, to the persons (in country that we were fighting with) who have suffered underserved hardships [\u2026]\nAristotle\u2019s Critique of Plato\nThe arts are seen to play a positive role in the lives of many people. Across cultures, times, places, and class-divisions, people sing, dance, decorate, enact, represent, narrate, and express, in conventionalized ways, to audiences who enjoy and participate in these activities, and often care about them deeply. It seems natural, if not highly informative, [\u2026]\nAnalyse Plato\u2019s views on belief and knowledge, and how he distinguished between the two\nA belief is a thought and often faith in a particular subject or thing in this world. Knowledge is a certain, universal fact that is supported by research and evidence. For instance, it is my personal belief that the existence of a God is a definite; however my view is not accepted, and is doubted [\u2026]\nPlato\u2019s dualistic theory\nIt is important to acknowledge that Plato\u2019s theory is defined as \u2018dualistic\u2019 because it incorporates the use of thinking from the perspective of a second dimension, in order to understand the purpose and nature of reality. In addition, in order to explore this concept, it is imperative to make reference to the \u2018Realm of the [\u2026]\nWhat Plato and Aristotle had to Say: Equality and Self-Realization\nPlato lived from 427-347 BC. He was born into a wealthy household where he was a student of Socrates. During his lifetime, he was heavily influenced by Socrates. As a student of Socrates, Plato lived in a society where old customs ruled the land and questioning the legitimacy of the God\u2019s was forbidden, punishable by [\u2026]\nPlato\u2019s Republic vs Locke\u2019s \u2018A letter concerning toleration\u2019\nWhile reading both Plato\u2019s Republic and John Locke\u2019s A Letter Concerning Toleration, it is impossible not to notice the frustrations that each writer has experienced within their respective societies. Both are clearly aggravated with the way religion and religious ideals affect their governments. Although their works are hundreds of years apart, similarities can be found [\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "Parents are role models for their children from the beginning of childhood. All children take their parents as an example for their behavior. If they spend a lot of time looking at screens, whether it is a mobile phone, laptop or tablet, child will think that is what he should do too. We must think of the example we are showing to our children, especially if we want them to be active. Also, getting kids more active seems like the time when your child is school-aged, but what about the time when he is just a baby? You must know that this is where the ground rules are set. Educating your child on the importance of developing personal interests and hobbies and to lead an active life starts from a very young age.\nComputer is necessary, but childhood is important too\nIt is not a big surprise that children are spending a lot of time looking at screens and tapping buttons, although it is less about sitting in front of the TV these days. Mobile phones, laptops and tablets are taking over the world. Even toddlers as young as 12 months are no strangers to swiping and scrolling. There is nothing bad with it, only if you check the time, how long have they been looking at that sparkling screen. Make sure they get the joy of spending some time outside with their friends.\nTechnology is amazing and offers our children lots of opportunities, but it can also sometimes be a problem. Our children must be aware of what technology is, much of school homework requires the use of a computer that is why they need to understand how to work with devices from a young age. But also, young toddlers need to get some experience how to develop and grow both physically and socially. As with most things in life, it is about the balance and moderation.\nEncourage activity from birth\nEverybody knows that the best learning experience for children comes from playing. So that is the reason why you should encourage your child to have fun and help him to find playful activities. Of course, encouraging hobbies and personal interests from birth is not about developing talent and making life-long decisions. Your child does not need to decide at the age of one what they want to be when they grow up. It is only about trying absolutely everything possible until something naturally shows up. Sometimes it will come quite early, sometimes you must wait quite longer.\nDevelop interest of new\nIt is human nature to form relationships, to enjoy being part of a community where you feel a sense of belonging. This is also important to children in terms of their wellbeing and social development. So you should show your children how important it is to not be afraid of new things. There is no chance I am talking about parachuting or eating strange dishes. Just make sure, you teach him something new time after time. Maybe you both will try something simple as baking chocolate waffles at home or will meet new friend in kindergarden.\nMany parents use an easy way to assure that their little ones are active. Certainly, taking your child to the dance academy or swim school is great, but if you want your kid to be active, it does not have to cost much money. So here are few cheaper tips.\nWalking is a great activity. Getting your baby out into the fresh air to hear the birds, wind, listen to the leaves rustling on the ground or visiting a local park.\nTreasure hunts are so much fun and you can do those in your own back garden.\nTake him on a bike trip. There are many baby seats for bicycles lovers. Even if you do not have it, you definitely can find it for a very cheap price.\nParents are busy people, sometimes putting your child in front of the TV or giving a mobile phone while you prepare dinner is the easiest and the most convenient way. If you feel like it is the only way forward, you should not feel guilty about it. As long as you have balance and you do make the effort to expose your little one to new experiences.\nIf you show your child how much it means for you to communicate with him, he will feel obligated to communicate with other. If you take him outside every time you are free, your child will find activities outside important too, because you showed him how it is important to you. Just do things you like with your baby and he will certainly show you that activities with you mean a lot to him that is why he will continue to do them.\nPrevious article Disciplined child 17",

In these cases, the Court upheld the constitutionality of \u00a7 9(h) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended by the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947, 61 Stat. 136, 146, 29 U.S.C.Supp. III, \u00a7\u00a7 141, 159(h), which provides:\n\"No investigation shall be made by the [National Labor Relations] Board of any question affecting\ncommerce concerning the representation of employees, raised by a labor organization under subsection (c) of this section, no petition under subsection (e)(1) of this section shall be entertained, and no complaint shall be issued pursuant to a charge made by a labor organization under subsection (b) of section 160 of this title, unless there is on file with the Board an affidavit executed contemporaneously or within the preceding twelve-month period by each officer of such labor organization and the officers of any national or international labor organization of which it is an affiliate or constituent unit that he is not a member of the Communist Party or affiliated with such party, and that he does not believe in, and is not a member of or supports any organization that believes in or teaches, the overthrow of the United States Government by force or by any illegal or unconstitutional methods.\"\nWith regard to that part of the section which is concerned with membership in, or affiliation with, the Communist Party, the Court holds the requirement to be constitutional. MR. JUSTICE BLACK dissents for reasons stated in his dissent in American Communications Association CIO v. Douds, supra.\nWith regard to the constitutionality of other relevant parts of the section, the Court is equally divided. MR. JUSTICE MINTON joins in the views expressed by THE CHIEF JUSTICE, who was joined by MR. JUSTICE REED and MR. JUSTICE BURTON in the cases above cited. MR. JUSTICE BLACK, MR.

Simply walk into a hotel or restaurant nearest to you and relieve yourself. In a bid to improve the sanitation quotient in God\u2019s own country, the Kerala Hotel and Restaurant Association (KHRA) has announced a joint venture with the state government titled \u2018Kloo Project\u2019 (Kerala+Loo). Hotels and restaurants that are willing to provide their toilet facilities for free to people will be registered with the project.\nTo help people identify the registered hotels, an application titled \u2018Kloo\u2019 will be launched by end of February by Minister of Industries E P Jayarajan. The application will be made available on Android and iOS phones. The GPS-driven app will provide the exact location and other details pertaining to the hotel. The users will also be able to rate the toilets based on their experiences.\nWe are not forcing anyone to join our venture, it is voluntary and so far over 20,000 hotels and restaurants in Kerala have come on board for the same. Finding a loo, that is hygienic and clean, is a problem faced by people, especially tourists. Many people also feel shy to use a toilet without ordering for food. With this new project, we hope people will stop urinating and defecating in the open, says an official from KHRA.\nAs a pilot project, close to a hundred hotels in Kozhikode district were selected in November 2018. People of the district were made aware about the project online and offline. The project is currently being carried out and is receiving a positive response from people. The selection of hotels and restaurants were conducted by the health department and faculty from the state institute of hospitality management from the district, to ensure health and hygiene facilities were not compromised.\nAlso Read: Shashi Tharoor Launches An International Technology To Tackle Waste In Thiruvananthapuram\nBefore registering the hotels and restaurants, a thorough inspection was carried for a month. The selection process was based on different factors like how many times the toilet is cleaned in a day, electricity, water provision, effective ventilation, etc. The hotels who didn\u2019t match the criteria and wanted to be a part of the Kloo project were given a few days to improve the conditions of their toilets, the official said.\nIn 2016, Kerala with a population of 3.3 crore was the third state to attain the title of open defecation free (ODF). In the same year the state launched its own initiative \u2018Haritha Keralam\u2019 (Green Kerala) to give its Swachh quotient a push.\nThe state constructed more than 2 lakh individual toilets (2,25,618) in its rural regions and successfully declared 2,027 villages, 152 blocks and 152 districts ODF. Its urban counterparts, since the inception of Swachh Bharat Mission in 2014, have constructed over 2.5 lakh (2,55,335) individual toilets and 17 thousand community toilets.\nTagsKeralasanitationToilets\nPrevious article Tamil Nadu Gets Its First Smart Dustbin To Tackle Plastic Waste, 500 More To Follow\nNext article Plastic Ban In Maharashtra Inspires A Chennai Man To Develop Eco-Friendly Alternative To Plastic Straws\nVery good initiative.

With this eighth edition of the handbook, author Nancy Sommers invites you to be part of a community of those who teach and assign writing; who believe that critical reading, analytical writing, responsible research, and clarity are at the center of effective writing across the academy; and who use the nation\u2019s best-selling and most responsive handbook to support the development of the college writer.LaunchPadLaunchPad combines an interactive e-book with high-quality multimedia content and ready-made assessment options, including LearningCurve adaptive quizzing.

        "raw_content": "Posted by teachermissmel in Relationships\nincorrectly expressed, Love, love in proper context, loving for real, misused words, overused, real talk, reality, truth, wait on love\nL.O.V.E in my opinion is is a four letter word that is often used to describe a sense of elation in any relationship. I believe that somehow we (myself included) as people, society and a nation worldwide have been brainwashed into believing otherwise.\nLove \u2013 a word misused on so many occasions and used inappropriately. Here\u2019s a few examples. I love my nails, I love playing guitar, I love God, I love baking, I love my job. Out of those few loves that I\u2019ve shared which do I really esteem above the others ?? Only then will I find out who? Or what I truly love. So I have decided to try and reserve my Love bank for someone or something that truly deserves it. I love God, I love myself, I love my kids in my class and I love my crazy, diverse and interesting family.\nThose are on the top of my love list. I will no longer say, I love my laptop, or I love my shoes. I will try and use the word love in its proper context to help restore the meaning of the word love and in turn hopefully change my view on how I should use it in truly expressing myself. I read somewhere that love means \u2013 Leaving Others Valued and Empowered.\nI hope that I will be able to love like that, knowing that my love for a person touches them in that special kind of way.",

The idea for the DIS sprang from the company\u2019s involvement in Kumbhathon, a project aimed at ensuring an incident-free Kumbh Mela in Nashik in August 2015.\n\u201cMost companies have innovation centres within the boundaries of the organisation or in partnership with academic institutes or other organisations but we wanted to create an open innovation platform, which is why we set up the DIS in the heart of Nashik,\u201d said Kaji.\nThe first cycle will run for six months, at the end of which teams are expected to have a basic prototype in place. The successful ones will then get another six months at the centre to mature their solution, and within a year the innovations will be deployed to the first set of users within the city. \u201cThis then becomes a beachhead for them to launch into a potential startup,\u201d said Kaji.\nTCS\u2019s role will span from providing infrastructure and technology elements to bringing in mentors to guide the teams.\nIn 18 months we\u2019ll have 300 innovators at the centre,\u201d said Kaji.\nTags : Corporate, TCS, MIT Media Lab, Kumbh Mela, Digital Impact Square",

        "title": "As Moore's law ends, brain-like computers begin",
        "raw_content": "As Moore's law ends, brain-like computers begin\nby Nathan Collins, Stanford University\nProfessor Kwabena Boahen has written \u201cA Neuromorph\u2019s Prospectus\u201d outlining how to build computers that directly mimic in silicon what the brain does in flesh and blood. Credit: L.A. Cicero\nFor five decades, Moore's law held up pretty well: Roughly every two years, the number of transistors one could fit on a chip doubled, all while costs steadily declined. Today, however, transistors and other electronic components are so small they're beginning to bump up against fundamental physical limits on their size. Moore's law has reached its end, and it's going to take something different to meet the need for computing that is ever faster, cheaper and more efficient.\nAs it happens, Kwabena Boahen, a professor of bioengineering and of electrical engineering, has a pretty good idea what that something more is: brain-like, or neuromorphic, computers that are vastly more efficient than the conventional digital computers we've grown accustomed to.\nThis is not a vision of the future, Boahen said. As he lays out in the latest issue of Computing in Science and Engineering, the future is now.\n\"We've gotten to the point where we need to do something different,\" said Boahen, who is also a member of Stanford Bio-X and the Stanford Neurosciences Institute. \"Our lab's three decades of experience has put us in a position where we can do something different, something competitive.\"\nIt's a moment Boahen has been working toward his entire adult life, and then some. He first got interested in computers as a teenager growing up in Ghana. But the more he learned, the more traditional computers looked like a giant, inelegant mess of memory chips and processors connected by weirdly complicated wiring.\nBoth the need for something new and the first ideas for what that would look like crystalized in the mid-1980s. Even then, Boahen said, some researchers could see the end of Moore's law on the horizon. As transistors continued to shrink, they would bump up against fundamental physical limits on their size. Eventually, they'd get so small that only a single lane of electron traffic could get through under the best circumstances. What had once been electron superfreeways would soon be tiny mountain roads, and while that meant engineers could fit more components on a chip, those chips would become more and more unreliable.\nAt around the same time, Boahen and others came to understand that the brain had enormous computing power \u2013 orders of magnitude more than what people have built, even today \u2013 even though it used vastly less energy and remarkably unreliable components, neurons.\nHow does the brain do it?\nWhile others have built brain-inspired computers, Boahen said, he and his collaborators have developed a five-point prospectus \u2013 manifesto might be the better word \u2013 for how to build neuromorphic computers that directly mimic in silicon what the brain does in flesh and blood.\nThe first two points of the prospectus concern neurons themselves, which unlike computers operate in a mix of digital and analog mode. In their digital mode, neurons send discrete, all-or-nothing signals in the form of electrical spikes, akin to the ones and zeros of digital computers. But they process incoming signals by adding them all up and firing only once a threshold is reached \u2013 more akin to a dial than a switch.\nThat observation led Boahen to try using transistors in a mixed digital-analog mode. Doing so, it turns out, makes chips both more energy efficient and more robust when the components do fail, as about 4 percent of the smallest transistors are expected to do.\nFrom there, Boahen builds on neurons' hierarchical organization, distributed computation and feedback loops to create a vision of an even more energy efficient, powerful and robust neuromorphic computer.\nBut it's not just a vision. Over the last 30 years, Boahen's lab has actually implemented most of their ideas in physical devices, including Neurogrid, one of the first truly neuromorphic computers. In another two or three years, Boahen said, he expects they will have designed and built computers implementing all of the prospectus's five points.\nDon't expect those computers to show up in your laptop anytime soon, however. Indeed, that's not really the point \u2013 most personal computers operate nowhere near the limits on conventional chips. Neuromorphic computers would be most useful in embedded systems that have extremely tight energy requirements, such as very low-power neural implants or on-board computers in autonomous drones.\n\"It's complementary,\" Boahen said. \"It's not going to replace current computers.\"\nThe other challenge: getting others, especially chip manufacturers, on board. Boahen is not the only one thinking about what to do about the end of Moore's law or looking to the brain for ideas. IBM's TrueNorth, for example, takes cues from neural networks to produce a radically more efficient computer architecture. On the other hand, it remains fully digital, and, Boahen said, 20 times less efficient than Neurogrid would be had it been built with TrueNorth's 28-nanometer transistors.\nStanford professor hopes to mimic the brain on a chip\nMore information: Computing in Science and Engineering, www.computer.org/cise/\nCitation: As Moore's law ends, brain-like computers begin (2017, March 13) retrieved 15 February 2019 from https://techxplore.com/news/2017-03-law-brain-like.html\nScientists create circuit board modeled on the human brain (w/ Video)\nEnergy efficient brain simulator outperforms supercomputers\nNew study of ferroelectrics offers roadmap to multivalued logic for neuromorphic computing\nScientists reveal new super-fast form of computer that 'grows as it computes'\nThere's a way to turn almost any object into a computer \u2013 and it could cause shockwaves in AI",

Here are some of them.\nThank you very much for giving pupils of Northgate High School the opportunity to experience life aboard Thalatta. They all thoroughly enjoyed their week\u2019s experience, as did I and benefited from the trip in more ways than I can mention. Thank you to the trustees for the generous sponsorship given to our trip, which enabled pupils from less advantaged backgrounds to enjoy an experience which might otherwise have been denied them.\nIt was wonderful to see the change in the pupils as the week progressed; watching them develop, gain in self-confidence and learn to pull together as a team was in itself very rewarding. Log entries and letters of thanks to the crew are testimony to their enjoyment and gratitude at having experienced something very different.\nMost importantly special thanks must go to your exceptional crew; Kevin, Roger and Rita. Their patience, knowledge, expertise and sense of fun helped make the trip the great success it was and definitely made my life very much easier.\nRachel Thomas, Northgate High School\nA week aboard Thalatta provides not only the opportunity for these damaged young people to learn, at their own level, about topics such as navigation, tides and wildlife, but also and perhaps more importantly they soon appreciate that if their week is to be a success they must work collaboratively and in co-operation with other members of a team and this arguably is the most important life skill.\nKingsdon Manor School, Somerset\nWithout the distraction of TV, radio and electronic games the group felt the need to devise games and activities of their own during periods of free time. At the end of the week everyone agreed that much of TV was overrated and had not been missed. Moreover, several new and unlikely friendships were made.\nCastle School, West Midlands\nOn behalf of the children of The St. Christopher School who sailed on Thalatta, I would personally like to thank all of you who were involved in making our trip possible. The importance of trips of this type for our pupils is hard to quantify. It is more than just a holiday. Though our pupils are young, they all have special challenges to cope with. Thalatta provides peace where the stresses of their lives slowly seeped from them.\nThey became part of a team and had to care as members of that team for one another. They faced challenges and some overcame fears which at first seemed insurmountable, such a picking up a lugworm, or climbing up a side of a barge. The encouragement their peers gave them was just as wonderful to see as the conquering of personal fear. The memory of their trip will stay with them forever, and the lessons learned will strengthen them in their lives.\nSt. Christopher School, Essex",

        "raw_content": "Q&A with professor of Spanish Julia Villase\u00f1or\nProfessor of Spanish Julia Villase\u00f1or has taught at Malone for 25 years. Her favorite part of her job is being in the classroom and being able to form relationships with her students.\nVillase\u00f1or: My first career was working in refugee resettlement. Then I moved overseas and when I came back, I was in career limbo. Somebody I worked with in refugee resettlement, who lived a couple blocks away from Malone, called me one day and said, \u201cAre you still looking for a job? Malone has posted an ad for a Spanish professor.\u201d I had never heard of Malone College, but I thought, \u201cWell, why not?\u201d I applied, got the job, and I\u2019ve been here ever since.\nProfessor of Spanish, Julia Villase\u00f1or has traveled extensively around North and South America, Europe and Africa. (Photo by Cammera Archie)\nVillase\u00f1or: I grew up in Ohio, believe it or not. I was born in Akron City Hospital. We moved to Dayton when I was a child and spent several years living there, and then moved back here. And after that, my life changed a lot.\nAviso: Do you have any pets?\nVillase\u00f1or: Yes I do. I\u2019m not going to tell you how many cats I have. There are certain things about a woman that have to remain mysterious. In my case, it\u2019s the number of cats. I have cats and dogs. I\u2019ve had bunnies and guinea pigs. I grew up always loving animals and I was in 4-H as a child. Everyone has told me my entire life that I should have been a vet, not a Spanish professor, because I tend to be good at detecting medical issues, treating, and all that kind of stuff. But alas, I\u2019m an academic instead of a veterinarian.\nAviso: Would you say your pets are a hobby of yours?\nVillase\u00f1or: They are kind of like a hobby. We\u2019ve done a lot of training with the dogs, a lot of rally and agility work with the dogs, therapy (we have two dogs that have been certified for therapy), and if I had more time in my life, I would do more with that. I do a lot of pet rescue, much to my children\u2019s dismay. And no, I don\u2019t keep them all.\nAviso: What languages do you know?\nVillase\u00f1or: You would have to qualify by level of knowing. Obviously, Spanish is my strong suit. The romance languages overall I can navigate pretty well when I\u2019m in those contexts. I had eight years of French before I started learning Spanish, so with a little brush up, French would be really good. I can navigate Italy pretty well. They make fun of me and say I speak Italian with a really lovely Spanish accent, but that doesn\u2019t matter to me because they understand me. I can be with my Romanian friends and understand them perfectly well, not that I really speak Romanian. I know some German, but that\u2019s really rusty at this stage of my life. And I have been able to pick up a fair amount of Kiswahili from living in Africa. But those are rudimentary compared to Spanish.\nAviso: What countries have you been to?\nVillase\u00f1or: Well, of course I lived in Mexico. That\u2019s where I went to school. So, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, Argentina, England, France, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Greece, Egypt, Kenya, South Africa, Ireland, India, Canada, Spain, and Belize. I think that\u2019s about it.\nAviso: Which is your favorite country?\nVillase\u00f1or: For me, Mexico and Kenya are like going home. I love being in both of those places the most.\nAviso: What is the best food you\u2019ve discovered on your travels?\nVillase\u00f1or: I don\u2019t think I can answer that. I love to eat. I love lots of different kinds of food. That said, I\u2019m not a big meat eater, but I don\u2019t shy away from spice, so I love Indian food. I love good Mexican food. I get tired of restaurants that are called Mexican in Ohio. I\u2019d rather make my own food. I\u2019ve had a lot of different weird meat. I\u2019ve had crocodile, I\u2019ve eaten giraffe, antelope, eland, iguana, and zebra. [But] do I need to eat them again? No.\nAviso: What is an interesting fact about yourself?\nVillase\u00f1or: Some people find it interesting that I did my entire undergrad outside of the U.S. I\u2019ve ridden a camel across parts of the Sahara. I graduated from high school when I was 17; I only did two years of high school. I went to Mexico when I was 17 to live, which was considered kind of outrageous in my day. I have held sharks and manta rays in the water. Archeology is kind of my second career instead of veterinary medicine.\nPrevious Post WATCH: \u201cMalone bubble\u201d shields students from the outside world\nNext Post Technology use soars in schools",

Security Council and the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, or OPCW, who said they would be investigating Douma to find truth for the alleged chemical weapons attack.\nIf the U.S., the U.K. and France were to take military action, Berlin would seek other ways to help which don\u2019t involve the military.\nDamascus narrowly avoided U.S. and French air strikes in 2013 in retaliation for a suspected sarin attack by agreeing to hand over its chemical arsenal.\nHe clarified on Thursday, tweeting that he \u201cnever said when an attack on Syria would take place\u201d.\nMore details to follow.

        "title": "THE FINE ART DINER: Fate vs Chance: When Harry Met Sally",
        "raw_content": "\"You would have to spend the rest of your life knowing that someone else is married to your husband,\" Marie (Carrie Fisher) tells Sally (Meg Ryan) and what makes this line so funny is the inner-contradiction: if there is someone who is really Sally's husband, then Sally will be the one to marry him, not someone else; if someone else marries him, he must not have been Sally's husband. This crossing of fate vs. chance lines the dark clouds of Rob Reiner's 1989 romantic hit When Harry Met Sally which ranks #23 on the AFI's 100 Funniest Films List, so it's an important film.\nBut the real reason I am posting on When Harry Met Sally, is because it's one of my sister's favorite films and she asked me to post on it for her birthday. My sister is my favorite person to watch movies with because she always stops the film and turns to me and says, \"What does that mean?\" and she never tires of my long-winded explanations and it means the world to me when I have managed to say something that pleases her. She loves movies, and I love her. Happy birthday and all my love always!\n\"Grapes?\"\n\"No, I don't like to eat in between meals,\" the sexual innuendos have all ready begin, because by offering Sally the fruit, Harry (Billy Crystal) is offering her \"forbidden fruit\" because he's all ready in a relationship with her friend. Sally not \"eating in-between meals,\" means that she doesn't engage in sexual relationships in-between her real commitments. When Harry turns to spit out the grape seeds and he spits them onto the closed window, it graphically illustrates for us Harry's attempt to place \"his seed\" in her and her \"obstacle\" to his seed; it's okay, though, we shouldn't get too upset: displaying the genuine dynamic between them is what makes the film a classic. Without the genuine, it doesn't endure the test of time.\nMany people think this conversation is what the film is really all about; I disagree, but that's pretty typical of me. What is most important about this scene is not the dialogue taking place about whether or not women and men can be friends (because it can be true for some but that doesn't mean for everyone), but that Harry is picking his teeth with a toothpick: we'll see something like this done again later in the film, but for Harry, since the mouth symbolizes the appetites, Harry picking his teeth means that he's cleaning his appetites of what they have been (Amanda) and preparing them for what he thinks they could be (spending the night in a hotel with Sally).\nWhen they make a stop, and they are discussing Casablanca, Sally makes her point about the practicality of being the First Lady of Czechoslovakia rather than being married to Rick who owns a bar and then sprays her hair with Aqua Net hairspray, meaning, that (because hair symbolizes our thoughts) she is as \"set\" in her ways as Aqua Net sets hair in place (if you don't know anything about Aqua Net, you didn't live through the 80's). What's interesting about this especially, is that Sally is sitting very close to Harry in the car, she's warming to him in her own way, and that he's driving when this conversation takes place means that he's starting to dominate her and \"setting\" her hair is her resolution not to let him dominate her (her hair has become \"loose\" compared to what it was at the beginning of the trip).\nThis is the moment when Harry stops looking at Sally as a potential sex partner and starts understanding her as \"other\" because her calculations are not the kind of calculations that he makes. Sally calculates everything in terms of fairness, your share and my share; whereas Harry calculates to give himself an advantage and steer things in the course he wants life to take. Recognizing the \"fairness\" aspect in Sally, and that it is something that he himself values although he doesn't practice it, makes him realize that Sally herself is \"fair,\" or attractive.\nWhat is so important about \"eating together,\" in any work of art, is symbolic of knowledge of the other person(s) that another character(s) is \"eating up\" and accepting. The way Harry orders, \"I'll have the number 3,\" is indicative of him \"taking or leaving it,\" i.e., he always instantly draws conclusions about what Sally does or does not say; Sally, on the other hand, always has something \"on the side,\" which demonstrates for us that she doesn't come to her decisions about people quickly, she keeps everyone \"on the side\" as a point of reference, but would rather leave judgments about people open instead of deciding and being done with it, like Harry. (As they step outside the diner, there is a paper posted in the window, REWARD, LOST DOG, and because that is in the window [symbolic of reflection] that probably refers to Harry, who going with Amanda is willing to \"stray from home\" to find a hand-out some place else).\nHarry has a baseball bat; not only is the bat a phallic symbol, but a symbol of \"game\" and, knowing Harry as we do, it prepares us for when he's divorced and he starts having sex with everyone woman he meets, because, to Harry, sex is a game (this is emphasized again when Jess and Harry are in the ball cage batting). Sally, on the other hand, has to shake hands with Harry as a recognition of the bond that she has made with him, in spite of herself. For Sally, this small gesture proves what we all ready know about her: emotions are everything.\nBy this point in the film, we have had three couples share their story with us of their love and how they came together; why is this important and how does this fit into the story of Harry and Sally? It establishes the importance of romance films, first of all, that no matter how two people fall in love, or what happens to them, our love story is basically the story of us, as individuals because no one can fall in love for us, and the love we give and receive from another is unique and singular. Love is the most individuating aspect of our lives and that's why the sharing of ourselves is a part of love, because you cannot give something that you do not have, so as love tells us who we are, and we discover who we are, we in turn give that part of our self to another in recognition that they have helped us to discover who we are.\nThe airport scene is well done because Joe and Sally are kissing as Harry and Amanda had been kissing in the beginning, so it's a mirror-image. Further, it shows how Sally has become at least a little like Harry (after thinking about men and women being friends, she pretty much believes he was right about that at this point) but Harry, in getting married, has become optimistic. However, Sally still calls him the \"Angel of Death,\" because of his not taking someone to the airport. Taking someone to the airport is one of those bonding aspects of creating a foundation to the relationship, and to intentionally skip doing that is to put the \"seal of death\" on a relationship because, as the entire film demonstrates, no matter whose story it is, there are aspects to love that must be in place for a relationship to survive; at this stage, Harry is still under-baked.\nGoing from Marie's roll-a-dex file of single men to the Giants' football game means that we have stepped up our level of understanding about finding the person we are meant for: it's not a game. Marie's receipt of the $1,600 dining table means (again, please refer to the scene in the diner above) that the man she's having an affair with is \"eating\" with his wife, not Marie, and that's why the receipt is important, it's an accurate reflection of who he's in communion with because when Marie meets Jess (Bruno Kirby) they will be at a dining table eating together and it's a quote about places to eat that Marie mentions at the table that lets them--and the viewer--know that Marie and Jess are in communion with each other.\nThe scenic meal the friends have tells us also how picturesque they view love to be.\n\"The whole time we were happy I knew it was just an illusion and one day she would kick the shit out of me,\" and that's pretty much the point of Harry and Jess standing in the arena, doing the wave with the rest of the crowd, because Harry has been \"going through the motions,\" but because, as in the airport scene, he didn't believe in doing things like taking people to the airport (he never really invested himself in the relationship) now, he discovers that there was not a relationship. Because Helen is in love with a tax accountant, we know that poetic justice has run its course: \"You go to guys like Sheldon to get your taxes done or for a plumbing job, but the bump and grind isn't his area of expertise\" Harry told Sally in the diner, but now, it's the \"Sheldon\" who has his wife.\nGoing back to Marie, \"He just spent $120 on a new night gown for his wife,\" is a sigh that no one has invested in her, not monetarily, but emotionally and the money is what tangibly illustrates for us where his heart is, and Marie knows it's not with her.\nWhat's interesting about the scene in the bookstore is that Marie, Sally and Harry are all on \"a higher level of thought,\" regarding relationships because they are upstairs (Marie goes downstairs, to the appetites which is where she belongs right now) but the Shakespeare bookstore and the reference to the movies invokes the seeking out of wisdom on love that art provides us with. Harry, typical of him, reads a book called, What Jung Really Said and, because he is in the personal growth section, we know that for both Sally and Harry, they are trying to grow from what it is that they have learned from their experiences. Just as Harry knew his and Helen's happiness was just an illusion, so Sally realized that her and Joe's happiness was an illusion, also.\nWhy does Harry specifically remember Sally's full name correctly in this scene? Because he now remembers her and his experiences in life have made what Harry knows about Sally to be more important, and he knows those qualities have a name, Sally Albright. When they are later walking in the park this same day, Harry claims that he didn't really like her, but the truth is, he really thought she was dumb and naive, but he did like her; now, because he lost his wife basically for the reasons that Sally was in favor of (taking people to the airport, for example) he releases she wasn't as dumb as he thought.\nIt's very important, the conversation they have next, walking in the park, because it's about getting to keep the apartment and then Harry brings up going through the obituaries to find an apartment, \"They should combine the real estate and obituary sections.\" The house (or in this case, apartment) symbolizes the soul, so keeping the apartment means that both of them (supposedly, at this point in the story) still have their self-respect and dignity in spite of their break-ups. But Harry knows that death has taken place by bringing up the obituaries because something always dies within us when a relationship has ended.\nSally being \"high maintenance\" corresponds with the Olympic game dream that Harry has. It's his mother, disguised as an East-German (a communist) who gives him the low-score; why? His mother taught him how to treat women better and he hasn't heeded her lessons; \"Maybe it was the dismount?\" which goes back to the airport scene of \"How long do I have to lie here holding her before I can go? 30 seconds?\" That Harry has a dream about the \"sex-Olympics\" illustrates that, just as we saw Harry unpacking Sally's car with a baseball bat (sex is a game) he hasn't changed that part of him. That's why Harry understands Sally to be \"high maintenance\": sex is the relationship for Harry, but Sally always has other aspects of the relationship \"on the side,\" such as the emotional and the \"sharing expenses,\" etc., and Harry can't share himself in a relationship. Not at this point, anyway.\nWhat does Sally's \"sex fantasy\" mean?\nFirst, as she describes the dream, she's wearing a hat, which means she's \"keeping a lid on it,\" about all the details that she's not sharing with Harry (this is the only time in the film she wears a hat) and her \"keeping herself covered\" juxtaposes itself to being \"stripped\" of all her clothes in her dream. What does that mean? Clothes symbolize who we are because clothes are a self-expression about out status in society and what we think of ourselves (but it can also mean how we hide ourselves, they can act as a facade) so Sally wants someone from whom she can't hide anything, who knows what it is she is thinking and feeling without her having to say it. Because Harry says things that forces her to think about what it is she thinks on something (topics that normally wouldn't come up with someone else) he does that for her in a way.\nIn the next scene, when Harry tells Sally how they are going to talk, they first \"talk\" about food (again, this is the sharing of knowledge about each other consistently running through the film) and the changing of the voice means the changing of how they communicate with each other: Harry no longer wants to communicate as a man and woman who are just friends, but as someone going to the movies together... but that's not going to work for Sally at this point. Although she has now taken her hat off, we know that she's still carrying it with her and Harry points out how she's dressed: layers and even a bit masculine, because he points out to her that she should wear more skirts, which she does in the next scene, Sally is going to start being more feminine.\nSally says of her first date post-Joe break-up, that the guy reaches across the table, pulls one of her hairs out of her head and begins flossing with it. Hair is the crowning beauty of a woman, and for him to start flossing with her hair (like Harry in the New York road trip picking his teeth after they leave the diner) means that this guy finds Sally attractive enough (her hair) to satisfy his appetites with her (his mouth) but we know that Sally wants a relationship.\nIn this scene, the day after they have their first dates, they are in Harry's barren apartment laying a new rug. Sally notices they are putting it down in the wrong direction so they have to change directions. Very aptly, this symbolizes how they are laying the foundation for their new relationship. Harry joking about the Ethiopians not having any food is really a reflection (symbolically) that there was no food during this date for him to partake of. Sally wearing the red sweater means that she's ready for love, but her dark colored skirt (it's either dark gray or black, it's hard to tell, and that's partly the point) is covering her lower regions so she's dead to the idea of sleeping with someone right now (the dark gray/black is death). Harry, wearing a white sweater means that he realizes his \"strength\" (the upper body) in his relationship will come from being innocent of wanting to have a relationship with Sally so he's willing to work on it (the jeans symbolize work clothes) and not go straight to bed with her.\nMost people would say this is, if not the most important scene in the film, at least the most memorable.\nAs they are eating, again, the importance of food and taking in of the other person, Sally shows Harry what his self-centeredness and shallow attitude towards sex is doing to him. Because sex is having intercourse with someone, Harry's emphasis on the purely physical is a form of \"faking\" just as much as Sally's \"faking\" of an orgasm in public is. \"I'll have what she's having,\" isn't funny, it's sad, because \"it looks like\" Sally is having a good time, but she's really proving a painful, and important point to Harry about why he's so unhappy: he never lets anyone in or truly gives himself to someone else.\nThe scene where Jess and Marie become interested in each other is really important because, along with all the intimate stories of how couples came together, interspersed throughout the film, this illustrates for us the role of fate; sometimes fate happens instantly and you just know about someone, like you know about a good melon, and sometimes it takes fate far longer to work, but what's important is, it is your fate and it is working in your life for your good. What is so charming about this is, after they have left the restaurant, Marie pulls Sally over to a shop window, \"Oh, I've been looking for a red suede pump,\" and that's exactly what she has been looking for: red for the color of her passions, suede, animal skin, again is the passions and the pump is a shoe that only women wear so upon reflection (the shop window) Marie recognizes that her will (the feet symbolize the will and shoes are worn on the feet) is to be with Jess, and it's because fate has chosen correctly for her that she is uniting her will to what fate has presented for her. So, because it's Marie who always falls for someone else's husband, it's important now that Marie herself has recognized that it's not chance, but fate that brings our heart to someone.\nCiting Oklahoma! is one of the many genius strokes When Harry Met Sally takes. After I have a chance to post on Oklahoma! I will link up the two films, but it would take too long here.\nWhen Sally calls Harry and asks him to come over, Harry entering into her apartment is the most intimate intercourse the two of them could have because Sally is really letting Harry in, and Harry (after answering the phone) and saying, \"I'll be right over,\" is understanding her pain, her intimate needs and he wants to stabilize her. This is the point that sets off the direction that the rest of their \"conversions,\" the preparation that fate is putting them through so that they can unite their wills to what fate has prepared them for, is really taking place. Harry wants to be there for Sally because, earlier, when Harry was upset about having seen Helen, it was Sally who gave Harry the discipline (\"hospital corners\") he needed to get through his emotional roller-coaster; now, Harry has to be the anchor for Sally so she can go on the roller-coaster because she she understood reality to be one way (Joe didn't want to get married) but now she knows reality was something else entirely (he didn't want to marry her). Her \"hospital corners\" won't fit on this bed, and she needs Harry to help her put things back in order.\nA kiss always symbolizes the breath of life we give to another and receive from another.\nSally lamenting that Joe just didn't want to marry her is a kind of contradiction like Marie asked her about, \"knowing someone else is married to your husband,\" because love isn't about wanting to marry this or that person, it's about the love that waters your soul as a garden and gives our soul the life that fulfills us so we can fulfill another, the one we love and only fate knows who that person is and that uniqueness they possess that will show us the uniqueness we possess. The mystery of love and how we come to it, and it comes to us, is what we all desire, but none of us can achieve love like a job or an award, but only mysteriously. And really, that's what, not just When Harry Met Sally is about, but all great films are about.\nLabels: When Harry met Sally still images pictures review symbols decode what does it mean thefineartdiner.blogspot.com The Fine Art Diner Meg Ryan Billy Cyrstal",

        "raw_content": "Home Next Challenge Grant Walking all of Dartmoor\u2019s Tors\nThe \u2018Ten Tors\u2019 is a notoriously tough challenge that happens every year in Dartmoor. As the name suggests, it involves walking up ten different hills in the National Park.\nGrant winner Emily Woodhouse had done that before though. Several times. She wanted a bigger challenge.\nShe decided to try walking up every tor on Dartmoor. All 119 of them. On her own. In one go. Carrying all of her own food.\nThis would have been a remarkable feat of endurance in itself, but the fact that she did it in the most appalling of weather is testament to her determination (not to mention her navigational abilities).\nEmily\u2019s account makes for grim reading but hats off to her for seeing her challenge through to completion.\nEmily\u2019s trip was supported by The Next Challenge Grant, an annual bursary for aspiring adventurers.\nThe \u2018All the Tors\u2019 Challenge\nby Emily Woodhouse\nWhat are Tors?\nA tor is a granite outcrop, usually on top of a hill or mountain. In Scotland people bag Munros, in the Lake District they collect Wainwrights and on Dartmoor they bag tors. The task is complicated a little since there is no strict definition of what \u201ccounts\u201d as a tor. Wikipedia will tell you that there are over 300 tors on Dartmoor, yet only just over 100 are on the Ordnance Survey map.\nMost people go by the map. You can tell if someone\u2019s a Dartmoor Nerd by their response to the question: \u201cWhat\u2019s the highest tor on Dartmoor?\u201d If it\u2019s longer than two words, it\u2019s time to smile politely and back away slowly.\nWhy walk all the Tors?\nI have been living on Dartmoor almost all of my life. The full story of my romance with the moors can be found here, but All The Tors really began life with Ten Tors.\nThe Ten Tors Challenge takes places on Dartmoor once a year. Teenagers from the local area train for months to be able to lug their backpacks around 35, 45 or 55 miles \u2013 wild camping overnight. Always a glutton for punishment, I did the challenge four years in a row. My team even beat a couple of speed records. But I went to university with a question lingering in the back of my head: \u201cI wonder if it\u2019s possible to do all the tors in one go?\u201d\nFast forward several years and I\u2019m the youngest member of our local Mountain Rescue team. This year (2018) marked the team\u2019s 50th year and my 25th year of existence. It was exactly the excuse I needed to think seriously about All The Tors Challenge. I started route planning and applied to the Next Challenge Grant.\nThe planning stage was far more thorough than I\u2019ve ever done for an adventure before. Usually I\u2019d prefer to just set off and see how long it takes. Instead, I was buried in spreadsheets and logistics. The route I\u2019d managed to create between the 119 tors looked like it would take me two weeks or less. Then Dartmoor National Park asked if they could be involved and I had to move the start/finish point to the Visitor Centre in Princetown. Then the firing times were released six weeks before my intended start date. I had to re-route again to avoid being shot.\nFinally, the challenge fell into place. I had a start time, a start place and a fixed route. It was going to take me 10 days to complete the 300km, carrying everything I needed to survive. As Dartmoor\u2019s new wild camping ambassador, I was going to spread the message of leave no trace. Even so, when the story of my solo expedition hit the local papers, people started to give me \u2018helpful\u2019 words of caution. Most memorably, being instructed by an old lady to take a long knife against overnight intruders.\nPeople also told me I wouldn\u2019t be able to carry enough food for 10 days\u2019 walking. But I packed it all into a 60 litre rucksack. My motto is: Be Yourself \u2013 Know Yourself \u2013 Challenge Expectations. The more people told me I couldn\u2019t, the more I knew I had to try. Although I could barely lift the bag onto my back, I would walk with it.\nThe tail end of a hurricane\nWhen you plan an expedition, you don\u2019t imagine the weather turning violently against you. Of course, you think about worst case scenarios, but you optimistically don\u2019t expect it to actually happen. I\u2019d carefully planned my route to include as many nice, easy ridgelines as possible. Could I see them? Nope.\nI managed to coincide my journey with the arrival of a post-hurricane storm. This meant days of thick fog and windy, wet nights.\n\u201cEmily, before you go, you might just want to listen to the radio a minute whilst they do the weather. There\u2019s going to be a weather warning\u2026\u201d\n\u201cNo thank you,\u201d I said cheerily. \u201cI know what the forecast is thank you.\u201d\nAbysmal. The forecast was abysmal. Tail end of a hurricane sweeping straight across Dartmoor and one look out the window to tell me it was thick fog across the moor.\nNever had it occurred to me that I might struggle to find any of the 119 tors. But, on day 2, I walked up into the cloud on Hare Tor and never came back out. I had to count every pace I took from 9am to 6pm, just to stay on track. The visibility was so poor that I could only see 10 metres in front of me, lining up bearings on tufts of grass.\nI couldn\u2019t manage another 9 days of this. All I wanted was for someone to tell me that it would be alright tomorrow. But there was no phone signal. I was completely alone.\nAfter a windy night, I peeked out of the tent. Fog. Thick fog.\nSunlight, but not for long\nI had climbed the highest tor on Dartmoor by 9am that morning. Then, miraculously, the cloud lifted enough that I could see 50 \u2013 even 100 metres in front of me. I was jubilant. By the time I\u2019d been round most of the day\u2019s tors, the sun had come out enough for a rainbow. My raincoat was packed away.\nI was dancing around and punching the air in happiness, to the backdrop of a stunning panorama over the north moor\u2019s ridgelines. Incredible.\nIt was such a good feeling that I tried to get back ahead of my route card. Bathing in the sunshine (ok I was wearing a belay jacket for the wind) I started to amble towards Hound Tor and camp. There was a herd of brown cows spread out along the left hand side of the unmarked path that curves around the bog from Watern. The birds were singing. The sky was a glorious blue.\nMy night on Hound Tor was disjointed. By some fluke of aerodynamics, nowhere round the tor was out of the wind. This would have been fine if it wasn\u2019t forecast at 35 mph wind with 50 mph gusts. In fact, it was so bad that I had to get up in the middle of the night and drag my already-pitched tent round the corner of the tor, as the wind changed direction.\nI sat on the floor outside the public toilets at Fernworthy Reservoir (both locked), hiding from the rain. I was wet, fed up of having to walk through bracken to avoid cows and devastated that the toilets were shut.\nI was heading out into the great unknown of the east moor and I was almost out of water.\nAlmost giving up\nCrawling on my stomach to stay out of the wind, I peered over the edge of Mel Tor and down into the Dart valley. All I could see was thick gorse and bracken and trees. I was supposed to be walking down to Luckey Tor, near the river, but I couldn\u2019t see it for the undergrowth.\nI was stuck. Trapped. Between Sittaford Tor and Lower White Tor, there is a river called the East Dart. Usually it\u2019s fine to cross in several places but I spent the morning walking upstream, wondering which point would be best to cross. But the only option was to walk all the way back to Postbridge, cross on the road bridge, and walk all the way back out the other side.\nIt was a devastating decision. I had wasted over a hour, added miles to my long day, got even wetter and maximised time walking into the wind.\nBy some miracle, the rain stopped at about 10am the next day. Within hours the sun had come out and a stiff breeze as drying my clothes. I got to tor 100. The end was in sight.\nThe next morning was pretty surreal. I ticked off the last two tors, then met a TV crew along the railway track into Princetown. After several takes of interview and walking back and forth for different shots, I was released into Princetown. I ran to the finish line and was amazed to be greeted by a hoard of Dartmoor Rescue Tavistock members and a flask of hot chocolate.\nAlone on Dartmoor\nAlthough I\u2019d spent a lot of time on Dartmoor before, I\u2019d never been alone on a continuous expedition for so long. It really struck home how isolating and risky solo backpacking can be. I found constant decision making after sleepless nights mentally exhausting on top of physical fatigue. In low points I was imagining gorse bushes in the fog were cows out to get me \u2013 having been charged by a bull early in the challenge.\nIt felt like Dartmoor did everything she could to stop me from taking away her crown. If I spent all day looking forward to a solid path, I\u2019d get there to find it standing water deeper than my boots. If the weather cleared up, I\u2019d find myself walking into a 40mph headwind. But I think I\u2019m glad it happened that way. If I\u2019d casually wandered around every tor on Dartmoor, it would have taken away something of the magic of the place. For a full account of my battle around the moor, see here.\nThank you very much to the Next Challenge Grant and its sponsors for helping me to inflict this much suffering on myself. You learn so much more about yourself and the world when the going\u2019s tough. Although this was my first solo expedition, it certainly won\u2019t be the last.\nEmily received a \u00a3100 award from The Next Challenge Grant.",

        "title": "Why My Mission To The US Matters: By Atiku Abubakar",
        "raw_content": "Home > Breaking News > Why My Mission To The US Matters: By Atiku Abubakar\nBy Atiku Abubakar\nFrom R-L: Senate President and DG of the Atiku Campaign Organisation, Bukola Saraki; Atiku Abubakar, US Republican Congressman, Chris Smith, Nigerian Senator, Ben Murray-Bruce, and others, holding a chat in Washington DC on Thursday.\nIt has become pertinent for me to speak about my ongoing visit to the United States of America, where I met and I am still meeting with US administration officials and business leaders.\nI travelled to the United States of America because I had a mission and my mission is to create the right economic atmosphere for American investments to return to Nigeria at a rate and quantum that we had before the current Nigerian administration\u2019s policies almost halted the flow of Foreign Direct Investments to Nigeria.\nI am in America because Atiku means jobs.\nMy reason for running for the office of President of Nigeria and even for going into public service in the first place, is because I believe that Nigeria has what it takes to be the beacon of hope for the Black Race and a leading nation of reckoning in the international community.\nThis has not materialised over the course of the last four years because, as Chinua Achebe prophetically said in his 1983 book, \u201cthe trouble with Nigeria is the failure of leadership.\u201d\nThe current Nigerian administration has allowed our relationship with our long-standing friends and partners to deteriorate and this has had unfortunate consequences for our economy.\nForeign relations that had been meticulously and delicately built for decades were allowed to deteriorate because the incumbent administration mistook their personal interests as the interest of Nigeria and allowed short term goals to dominate their foreign policies.\nNew friendships should not be made at the cost of old friendships. It is not an either-or situation. Right from independence, Nigeria has nurtured a policy of non-alignment. We borrowed from the Lincoln policy of malice toward none and charity for all. Sadly, that policy has suffered major setbacks in the last four years.\nAs a leader in business, I am cognisant of the fact that both Western and Oriental nations will be making the transition from fossil fuels to electric powered vehicles and other green energies over the course of the next two decades. This means that Nigeria\u2019s oil has a limited shelf life.\nTo be forewarned is to be forearmed and we must, as a nation, begin to make the transition from an oil economy to a modern economy based on manufacturing and value-added agricultural chain.\nThe message I took to the United States business community is not a new message. In my opinion editorial in the British media (Beyond Brexit \u2013 Nigeria wants a new trade deal with Britain), I opined that Brexit is an opportunity for Nigeria and the United Kingdom to have a Big Ambitious Free Trade Agreement.\nIt is only common sense.\nIn 2014, the African continent as a whole earned $2.4 billion from coffee grown in Africa and shipped mainly to Europe. That sounds impressive. However, one nation alone, Germany, made $3.8 billion from re-exporting Africa\u2019s coffee in 2014.\nAs a businessman, I see this and I cannot allow it to continue. It is unconscionable, but situations like these will not stop unless Nigeria and Africa have leadership that thinks business instead of aid and capital instead of loans.\nNigeria has perhaps the highest populations of youths as a segment of the total population, in the world. Already, we have the unfortunate distinction of being the world headquarters for extreme poverty. We cannot afford business as usual. My single-minded focus is to change this dubious record by transforming Nigeria from a consumer nation to a prosumer nation (a nation that consumes what it produces).\nFor this to happen, we need US firms who have divested from Nigeria, to return. We need Procter and Gamble to reopen their $300 million Nigerian plant which they shut down last year. We need General Electric to reverse their $2.7 billion pull out of Nigeria.\nAnd my vision is for trade to go both ways. Nigeria has a lot to offer America via her creative industry (Nollywood is the world\u2019s third largest movie industry) and rich mining sectors (Nigeria\u2019s Kaduna state is rich with gold ore). I am also eager to find a market in the US for some of the half a million shoes manufactured in Nigeria\u2019s cities of Kano and Aba everyday.\nSomeone somewhere said Nigeria\u2019s youth are lazy. I am one of the single largest employers of Nigeria\u2019s youth and I know that that assertion is false. My travels in Europe and America is to sell the Nigeria that I know to the world that does not yet know her. A Nigeria with not just a hardworking youthful population, but a nation with some of the smartest working people on earth. A nation that is open for business and a Nigeria that is much more than oil.\nAnd I am certain that if I am successful in selling this Nigeria to the world, the world will come to Nigeria for business.

        "title": "Theme Overdose - Review of Hybrid - There Will Be Games",
        "raw_content": "Theme Overdose - Review of Hybrid\nI've never tried to candy-coat the fact that I am not a fan of games with weak themes. I don't want a theme that could be swapped out with a dog race, elephant hunting or midget dance contests. I like my games to deliver a 'yeah, I sorta did that' feel. I want to hear the screaming starfighter engines (despite the fact that you couldn't hear them in space). I want to feel the hot breath of the minotaur before I cut him down to size. I want to taste... OK, never mind, I don't actually want to taste anything, unless it's a cooking game.\nSo it feels horribly out of character for me to say that a game can actually have too much theme. It seems like saying you have too much money, or too many strippers. It doesn't seem possible.\nAnd yet, here I go - Hybrid has too much theme.\nHybrid is essentially a dungeon crawler for two players. One player is the Order of the Griffin, a group of elite slayers-of-evil lead by the enigmatic and powerful Ambrosius. The other player gets to take on the roll of pure evil bad guys, the creations of the evil emperor Dirz. Dirz is long gone, but he left countless underground crypts full of his undying creations - terrible monsters built in cloning tubes and activated hundreds of years later.\nSo far, this has one of the coolest, darkest themes ever made. The miniatures that come with the game are all metal, and they are just as detailed and amazing as anything Rackham ever made (which is not that big a coincidence, since the game was made by Rackham). There are 12X12 tiles that you lay out to build your dungeons, and the art on these is just amazing. Even the doors are jaw-dropping gorgeous. You'll be able to smell the stale air and hear the dripping water (as long as you're playing in a leaky basement). It's awesome.\nThe combat system works incredibly well, too, and continues to contribute to the feeling that you're reenacting desperate battle against unholy terrors. Every figure has a natural value - the number under which you must roll to swing a weapon (or shoot a gun, or block a blow). Rolling under this number on an attack causes a point of damage, and reduces the natural value of your target by one. When that natural value becomes zero, your genetic Tinker Toy monster or self-righteous templar takes a dirt nap.\nThis would be interesting enough, but then you add in action modes. When you activate a figure, you have to choose an action mode. The options are stabbing, shooting, blocking or hauling ass (that's a paraphrase). And each action mode has six levels, and each one does something a little different. The novice strike allows your warriors to ignore their wounds when attacking, while the heroic strike deals out a little extra pain. Skilled firing lets you cover a doorway and shoot out of turn at the bad guys who come through, while the expert move lets you tie up your enemies as you run past. By choosing the right level for your action mode at the right time, you'll be able to attack twice, or get bonuses to your rolls, or sneak around and dodge your foes until the time is right to jump out of the shadows like Jason Voorhies.\nTo give you that extra bump now and then, you can also play action cards - but you don't get very many, so you better make 'em count. Play them when you just have to get the initiative, or when you really need to hit, or when you want your opponent to blow a roll. Just don't play them too often, or you won't have them when you need them, and then the clone monsters will just run around blowing up your heroic warriors and laughing diabolically (if they had mouths. I'm not sure they do).\nAnd the cards are the first sign that Rackham might have gone just a little bit overboard. On most of the cards, there is more flavor text than game text. So you can read six paragraphs in miniature italics about how Ambrosius once used his cape to filter his coffee before he told one of his knights to tie his shoes, and then you get one line that says, 'remove this card from play after you play it.' There's so much flavor copy that all the text has to be incredibly small - and it's reversed out against a dark background, which, as any serious graphic designer will tell you, makes it even harder to read. It would have been nice to just have a couple lines, like \"Ambrosius consulted his maps and said, 'oh, hell, we were supposed to exit three miles ago,\" and then rules you could actually read without medically-prescribed trifocals.\nThen you've got the map tiles. When I say that these are a visual triumph and true works of art, that's not entirely good. Because they're so God-Bless-America illustrated that you can't tell where the squares are. You're moving on a 1-inch grid, but you can't see the grid for all the climbing vines and puddles of goo and skeletal remains. I'm not lying when I tell you that it slowed us down trying to figure out where the figures belonged (maybe we were both retarded, but we played several games, and this problem came up more than once).\nFinally you've got these fantastic miniatures. The templars are so detailed and amazing, you can see the wrinkles in their faces and the wind in their hair. The hybrid monsters are so lovingly sculpted that you can pick out veins and tendons. And they have swords sticking out, and guns, and shooty-thingies (not guns - more like Chewbacca's bowcaster) - and you can't put two of them next to each other, because the one guy's weapon pushes the other guy back. I'm just glad I hadn't painted my figures, because all those arms sticking out everywhere would have been knocking off paint all the way to the primer.\nBut you know what? It's totally worth it. Hybrid is a sickening amount of fun, once you break out the magnifying glass for the cards, establish whether any given space is a floor tile or a cow patty, and figure out how to put your figures so their arms don't fall off. The combat is insanely smooth, incredibly flexible, and seriously fast. Tactical and strategic opportunities abound - plan your moves, set up screens, approach with caution, hit hard and fast, or choose some other strategy to win the day (as long as the dice cooperate). This is more fun that a kiddie pool full of jello shooters (unless the Girls Gone Wild are in the pool. That definitely would be more fun).\nUnfortunately, to get to all this fun, you have to wade through what is easily the worst rulebook I've ever read. I'm not even remotely exaggerating. The rules that tell you when to draw event cards are not in the section on event cards. No place in the rules does it explicitly tell you how to make an attack - you have to read two or three different sections to find those rules, and then put them all together. The rules are drop-dead gorgeous, full of miniature dioramas and fantastic illustrations, but they seem to have fired anyone who might have said, 'yeah, this looks nice - but can you tell me how I move again?' The first time I read the rules, I actually gave up and put the game away for three months.\nSo yes, you can have too much theme (still not sure about too much money, though). When all that flavor and mood and atmosphere actually impedes you from playing the game, someone should have practiced just a little bit of restraint. And when you have to read the rules five times, then find one of Universal Head's rules summaries just to figure out who goes first, then it's pretty clear that the creators of Hybrid spent too much time focusing on aesthetics and not enough on practicality.\nBut then, when you've got pieces this gorgeous, and a game this good (once you figure out how to play it), you should be able to tolerate a little confusion. So you're not sure if that's a vine or a wall. A couple games from now, you'll know exactly what to do every time, the game will move like clockwork, and you won't even notice when your gargantuan mauler beast can't actually stand next to the hard-on warrior with his gun sticking out in front of him. You'll just play, and you'll flat-out love it.\nIncredibly cool backstory\nStunning quality components (mostly)\nSmooth, intuitive game play with ludicrous amounts of flexibility\nIncredible replay value (I know I can't wait to play again)\nToo much chocolate, not enough milk\nRules organized by anaesthetized rodeo clowns\nFor some reason, Rackham decided that the single tokens you use the most should be printed on the thinnest cardstock they could find, and be almost impossible to manipulate easily.\nPosts in discussion: Theme Overdose - Review of Hybrid",

Kimberly is an advocate, teacher, and therapist at Vered Counseling. She provides therapy to teens and their families in Asheville, NC, as well as online. Kimberly specializes in working with teen girls (including issues like depression, anxiety, and perfectionism) and helps teens navigate issues related to gender identity.\nIalways knew I was going to work with teens, but I wasn\u2019t sure in what capacity. In college, I got a degree in essentially \u201cthe brain\u201d\u200a\u2014\u200amajoring in Neuroscience and Psychology and minoring in Speech-Audiology Pathology. I considered going to medical school to possibly become a pediatric neurologist.\nIt wasn\u2019t until I worked in an emergency room that I decided to not go to medical school. There were two main reasons: One, I saw many chronic conditions that were getting worse because mental health and other issues made it difficult for people to follow up with appropriate treatment. Two, most of the doctors I connected with tried to talk me out of going to medical school. They said \u201cIf I knew what being a doctor was actually going to be like, I would have never done it.\u201d\nThe overwhelming message was that physicians are great for quick repairs\u200a\u2014\u200alike surgeries\u200a\u2014\u200abut they are as helpless as anyone else when it comes to helping people make lasting improvements in their lives.\nAfter getting my Masters and full licensure, I decided to start a private practice in Asheville, NC. I love what I do. I get to help teens discover who they are and to hold onto that spark that makes each of them special, despite whatever issues they\u2019re dealing with or what they\u2019ve been through in the past. I love helping parents understand their child and learn ways for the whole family to be healthier and more connected. In my opinion, there\u2019s no better job in the world!\nWhile talking with other clinicians, I noticed that there were some issues many therapists shied away from or felt they didn\u2019t know how to handle, notably around how to support transgender clients and clients experiencing suicidal thinking. Most clinicians don\u2019t get any training in issues of gender, and almost half of clinicians don\u2019t get any graduate level training in working with suicidal clients! I do in-person workshops, while also providing online classes and self-paced CEUs to therapists across the country.\nThe biggest question to ask yourself when dealing with difficult relatives is \u201cDo I have a real relationship with this person?\u201d If your parents criticize your hair and job, but aside from those frustrations, you feel loved and supported, that\u2019s a relationship worth nurturing.\nSigns of a damaging relationship include feeling like you\u2019re always on guard, feeling like you can\u2019t breathe, or feeling like you have to put on a fake persona the entire time. If you can\u2019t ever be yourself, you can\u2019t authentically connect with the other person. Is the relationship is based more on survival than love and support?\nIf there is a relative that you know who always makes you feel panicky or worse about yourself, try to minimize time spent around them. You can also prepare for these interactions. You can ask yourself \u201cDo I trust this person? Is what they have to say helpful or true?\u201d If you can clearly see that this relative is full of it, the nonsense they say can get under your skin less.\nIt\u2019s also to have a plan for decompressing after stressful interactions. You can text a friend or talk to another relative who\u2019s on your side. If you don\u2019t have anyone accessible, you can search the internet to find a local warmline to call or text. Warmlines are hotlines for people to call when they\u2019re feeling frustrated or lonely, but not actually at the point of crisis.\nThere can certainly be varying degrees of pain and harm caused by family members. In all cases, the most important thing is to figure out a way to keep yourself feeling safe and in control.\nIf you depend on this family member for a lot of things (you\u2019re staying with them, they\u2019re your only ride out of your remote location, they have access to your bank account), it might be appropriate to look at the interaction in terms of survival. You might have to put on a mask and pretend like everything\u2019s fine in order to get what you need. There\u2019s nothing wrong with putting your survival and basic needs/safety first.\nIf you do have to put on a mask, it\u2019s important that you build in periods where you can vent, de-stress, or just feel safe. Knowing that there\u2019s people you can talk to, a room you can hide out in, or a crisis line you can text if you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed can help you get through.\nIf you have to deal with a family member who is frustrating, but doesn\u2019t cause you high levels of distress, you can use positive distractions, such as thinking of something you\u2019re looking forward to once you get back home. Slow, deep breaths while listening to the other person can also help you feel calm. It\u2019s a cliche, but only because it actually works. It won\u2019t cure stress, but it does help you stay calmer and feel in control.\nWith teens, there\u2019s this conflict because they often know when something is wrong, but have the least power to take action and change it. I\u2019ve helped a lot of teens end the struggle with unsupportive family members by seeing what they realistically can and can\u2019t do.\nLet\u2019s say a teen is having conflicts with their parents (in this situation, let\u2019s say the parents are unreasonable about something and unwilling to learn). The teen may not be able to move out, get a job, or even get around town without their parent\u2019s help. If the teen argues with them, it\u2019s unlikely that the parent will respond positively, and they\u2019ll reach a standstill. In these cases, I help teens accept that their parents aren\u2019t going to change, as frustrating as it may be. Then, I help teens focus on expanding the connections they have with people who understand them.\nWhile this is difficult (and it\u2019s hard to wrestle with \u201cwhy can\u2019t they just get it?\u201d), focusing on what does and doesn\u2019t actually help gives you more control in challenging relationships.\n1. You don\u2019t have to please everyone. If someone is saying something that is hurtful, you can speak up! Your feelings matter. It\u2019s okay to ruffle some feathers at the gathering if doing so helps you feel like you\u2019re being fully yourself.\n2. It\u2019s okay to fake it. It\u2019s also okay if you want to pretend to be someone else over the holidays. Family relationships are complicated. If you want to bypass an argument by pretending that someone\u2019s joke didn\u2019t bother you, it\u2019s fine. We all have limited amounts of energy and sometimes we don\u2019t feel like dealing with something. If you decide to stifle your opinions during a gathering, make sure you have a person you can vent to afterwards.\n3. Carve out some fun. It\u2019s important to find things that you enjoy when you know you\u2019ll be dealing with some stressful situations. Download a game on your phone or tablet, watch a movie or comedy special, or listen to a podcast. Choosing something that\u2019s engaging to focus on can help provide you some relief.\n4. Notice something positive in the here-and-now. Even in the middle of stress, what is good about this moment? Do you like your outfit? Is the food tasty? Is it cozy inside? Trying to find and focusing on the positive can help you get through a stressful event.\n5. Next year in Jerusalem! This saying is a traditional ending to Passover, but it\u2019s also a good mantra for the holidays. If you\u2019re struggling, it\u2019s important to consider whether you want to put yourself through this again. If the answer is yes, it might help you get through this season. If the answer is no, thinking about doing something different next year\u200a\u2014\u200astaying home, visiting the mountains, or even going to another country\u200a\u2014\u200acan be a great distraction and help you feel centered through the chaos.\nWhat advice would you give to family members who are allies of someone struggling with mental illness at these gatherings?\nYou can\u2019t fix things, but you can support your family member. You can ask them what they need and take cues from them. Just knowing that you\u2019re available to listen and support them can mean a lot. Also, if they need any help in taking a break from the chaos, you can offer to take them to a movie or some other fun distraction.\nHow can they support strong mental health without causing friction with other members of the family?\nI think this idea of not wanting to cause friction or upset others can become a slippery slope to condoning abuse. There are absolutely times when it is okay to cause friction with other people or even piss them off.\nRelatives commenting about weight are a perennial issue. In most cases, I\u2019d step in and say something like \u201cher weight is none of your business,\u201d and then change the topic.\nIf the situation was more serious, like the person had body image struggles or I knew those words would really sting, I\u2019d step up what I\u2019d say. I would call out that fatphobic thinking, tell them that no one\u2019s weight is any of their business, and that implying that someone\u2019s appearance matters\u200a\u2014\u200alike it makes them a better person, more desirable, or is a morally good quality\u200a\u2014\u200ais harmful nonsense.\nThen, there\u2019s the effects that outright bigotry has on mental health. If someone is part of a marginalized group, such as being transgender or Jewish, and a family member says something transphobic, anti-semitic, or generally racist, it is fine to leave. You don\u2019t have to subject yourself to abuse just to continue the appearance of \u201cfamily unity.\u201d Your feelings matter and are just as important at racist uncle Joe\u2019s.\nIf you are going to cause friction, it is important that you have a backup plan and aren\u2019t relying on the person you angered. Make sure you\u2019re staying in a hotel and not with that relative. Have your own transportation (or that you\u2019re phone\u2019s charged and has service if you need a rideshare).\nMy favorite quote is by the inimitable Mr. (Fred) Rogers. \u201cAnything that\u2019s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.\u201d\nFor me, this gets to the core of not only the idea of therapy, but also human connection. We\u2019re not alone in this, no matter what our jerk brain may be telling us. Other people have walked the path of depression, of experiencing abuse, and whatever you\u2019ve gone though, you\u2019re not alone. By talking with people we trust, people who deserve to hear our story, we find out that we\u2019re in this together.\nThere\u2019s nothing shameful about being a person. There\u2019s nothing shameful about feeling jealous or angry or lonely. When you start talking with someone else who hears you and gets it, you can start moving from a place of beating yourself up to a place of growing and living.\nI would want people to know that the only way out of chaos is to be more of yourself, not less. There is something wonderful in every single person I\u2019ve worked with, no exceptions. Even if you feel worthless, bad, or like there\u2019s nothing special about you\u200a\u2014\u200aI\u2019ve found that there\u2019s always something amazing sleeping within.\nYou can visit me at my website VeredCounseling.com, or check out the Vered Counseling Facebook page for articles, resources, and inspiration.\nStruggling Teens Often Appear to be Doing Just Fine\nHelping The Forgotten Hungry\nby Debra Vizzi",

        "raw_content": "Even if you do not have any specific foot problems, it is a good idea to see a Chiropodist once in a while.\nThe Chiropodist will give you advice on many aspects of foot care and how to prevent problems arising in the future.\nWhat can Chiropody at The Tonbridge Clinic offer you?\nWe treat patients with foot problems associated with conditions such as:\nand those suffering from:\nCallosities (Hard skin)\nWe are able to carry out procedures such as total & partial nail surgery and the manufacture of prescription insoles following a computerised gait analysis. For more information on these services please see the relevant sections listed under Podiatry.\nDavid Woodley -Chiropodist\nTim Veysey-Smith\nWhat is Sports Podiatry?\nPodiatrists undergo a 3 year degree course and are trained in the general management of medical conditions affecting the foot and ankle. Sports Podiatrists are extended scope practitioners who have undertaken additional post graduate qualifications in Sports Injury management and prevention, with a particular emphasis on the biomechanics of injuries affecting the lower limbs.\nTim Veysey-Smith has a Masters degree in Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation and a post graduate Diploma in Biomechanics. He is also trained in soft tissue and joint mobilisations of the foot and ankle. He has a particular interest in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries affecting runners and has worked at a number of athletic events, including the London Marathon.\nThe partial or total removal of a toenail under local anaesthetic is a highly successful technique which has been used by Podiatrists for many years to treat all different types of painful nail condition.\nWe can treat nails which have become infected and septic or nails which are painful or troublesome due to their abnormal shape. Most commonly, these are referred to as \u201cingrowing toenails\u201d.\nWhat can I expect during nail surgery?\nBefore the procedure is carried out, a full pre-operative assessment is carried out to ensure that the procedure is safe to be performed. This assessment involves taking a full medical history and an evaluation of vascular and neurological function. The procedure will also be discussed in detail with you and you will have the opportunity to ask any questions ahead of the surgery.\nHow will the toenail be removed?\nThere are 3 stages to the operation\nLocal anaesthetic injection to numb the toe.\nRemoval of all or part of the nail and application of a chemical to destroy the exposed nail bed. This is to ensure that the nail does not grow back.\nA dressing is applied to the toe.\nA follow up visit will be necessary for a dressing change after 2 or 3 days.\nAll surgical procedures are carried out using single use, disposable instruments to ensure a safe and clean environment. A qualified medical assistant is also present during the surgery.\nBiomechanics and Orthotics\nWhat isa Biomechanical Assessment?\nBiomechanics is the name given to the scientific study of human movement. In terms of Podiatry a Biomechanical Assessment involves a full assessment of lower limb function and efficiency in standing and walking. The aim of the assessment is to identify the cause of painful symptoms and instigate a treatment plan to accelerate recovery and reduce the risk of the same problem occurring again in the future.\nGait Analysis is, very simply, an analysis of how you walk. Very few injuries occur when standing still, but rather when the forces acting on our bodies as we move around overcome the ability of those body systems to repair themselves. Therefore a comprehensive Gait Analysis is essential in arriving at an accurate diagnosis of the problem.\nAt The Tonbridge Clinic patients are assessed using a variety of techniques including Slow Motion Video analysis and Computerised Pressure Mapping. This is a pressure mat placed on the floor and connected to a laptop computer which picks up data as the patient walks across it. This records important information such as the speed and angle of gait, any high pressure areas and excessive forces acting on the foot, and variations in gait which may cause stress and strain in the musculo-skeletal system. The use of these special tools alongside regular analysis techniques enables a more accurate diagnosis to be made.\nOrthotics, or Orthoses, are specialised inserts that fit into the shoe and work by reducing the magnitude of excessive damaging forces acting on structures in the lower limb, thereby relieving pain and improving efficiency in balance, stability and movement. Where injury has occurred as a direct or indirect result of these excessive forces, properly prescribed orthoses can accelerate healing and reduce the risk of the same injury recurring.\nOrthoses fall broadly into two categories, Custom and Pre-moulded.\nThese are made from a plaster or bio-foam mould of the feet and are made to a specific prescription, similar in concept to prescription glasses. They are usually constructed from very light, strong materials such as Carbon Fibre and Polyprolene and are often sports or activity specific. Because they are precision made by hand and therefore cannot be mass produced, they are relatively expensive. Whilst not necessary in all cases, they are generally stronger and longer lasting and therefore can be more cost effective in the long term. They are generally more successful in addressing complex foot pathologies.\nPre-moulded Orthoses\nThese come in a range of pre-formed shapes and sizes which are designed to fit a broad range of foot and shoe types. As they are not custom made they can be made in greater numbers and this makes them relatively inexpensive. Although they can be modified on a basic level, the general nature of their design means they may not be suitable for more complex foot pathologies.\nThere are many pros and cons to the various different types of orthoses available, and no single approach will work in every case. Orthoses are just one component of a well rounded treatment plan and are not the answer to everything, contrary to some \u2018marketing\u2019 claims out there. Our aim is to give clear and objective advice, with the aim of helping you to recover from your injury as quickly as possible.\nSome common musculoskeletal conditions orthoses can help in the treatment of are:\nHeel Pain (sometimes called \u2018Policeman\u2019s Heel)\nMedial Tibial Stress Syndrome (also known as Shin Splints)\nMetatarsalgia, or forefoot pain.\nIf you are struggling with a debilitating injury which is not responding to treatment, it may be worth considering whether orthoses can help you.",

        "raw_content": "Missing teeth can cause huge problems in terms of self-confidence as well as making it more difficult to eat properly. In some cases, this can even lead to speech issues and the remaining teeth becoming crooked as they move to fill in the gaps.\nThankfully, Dental Implants offer a modern and lasting solution that will allow you to recover your beautiful smile. This is a tried and trusted process that your dentist in Kennewick WA can carry out to give you a natural-looking smile and more comfort.\nThere are three different stages to the Dental implants procedure to take into account.\nFirst of all, a tiny titanium post is implanted into the jawbone to provide a solid foundation. This is a surgical process that is painless and comfortable for the client when carried out professionally by our experienced team.\nAfter some time, the bone around the implant will heal around it and will hold it in place perfectly. In fact, you can expect the implant to settle in so well that you soon forget that it is there.\nThe final part of the process is the addition of a customized tooth on top of the Dental Implants. Of course, this tooth is designed so that it blends in with your other teeth in a very natural way.\nThe dental implants solution means that you can forget about the inconvenience of traditional crowns and dentures forever. This approach is ideal for replacing lost teeth while retaining jaw strength and a completely natural feel.\nGet in touch with Tri-City Dental Care to find out about getting Dental Implants that are perfect for your smile. You won\u2019t regret making this move and discovering the joy of getting a full set of teeth back again.\nDental implants are ideal for people who want a more permanent solution to help them achieve a beautiful and even smile, whether you have missing teeth or wear dentures and are looking for a more secure fit.\nIf you are missing teeth and do not want to get a bridge, you can have an implant put in and a crown put on top of it once it has been healed. Implants are also ideal for securing and stabilizing dentures so that they are much less likely to slip and fall out.\nDental implants are small metal rods that are surgically placed underneath the gum line and into the bone of the jaw. Over the course of about three months, the rod will naturally fuse with the bone, which helps to create a secured core for crown work. People with dentures will also find that their appliances stay in their mouth a lot better when they have implants put in by their dental team.\nDental implants can last for quite awhile, often 20 to 30 years before needing to be replaced. The metal used in the implant is entirely safe for use within the body and is surgical-grade, so there is no worry that the body will have a reaction to the metal that is being used. It is important to discuss any health concerns with the dental surgeon before the work is started so that he or she knows what types of issues are at hand before they begin the procedure.\nDuring the procedure, you will receive a general anesthetic that will put you into a deep sleep. The surgeon will then cut open a portion of the gum and drill into the bone of the jaw. The metal implant is then placed into this area and the gum is stitched up.\nOver the course of about three months, the implant will heal and fuse with the bone, creating an entirely secure core for any type of work to be placed on top. Throughout the healing process, it is important to make routine trips to the dentist as recommended to ensure that you are healing properly.\nThe procedure in the office should take roughly an hour or two depending on the amount of implants that are going to be placed. In terms of the time it will take for the implant to heal, you will find that it is healed almost entirely in two months and will be ready for crowns and dentures in just three months. This makes the entire process of having a dental implant safe, easy and convenient.\nContact us to find out more about the procedure and what to expect from it. We want you to understand all your options and can help you decide whether a dental implant is the best solution for your needs.",

        "raw_content": "Have you ever given serious consideration to air pollution in your apartment or house before buying or renting?\nConsidering the air pollution, in general, is very important, but the intention, in this case, is air pollution resulting from sources of electromagnetic non-ionizing radiation, such as electricity network, a cellular network, WI-FI and more.\nWe cannot see the electromagnetic radiation, cannot smell, cannot sense, and as it is hidden from our eyes, its importance is also hidden from our understanding.\nElectromagnetic radiation can be \"seen\" only by using measuring instruments, and with that, we can know its existence and intensity and the degree of danger to which we are exposed.\nElectromagnetic radiation has an impact on the quality of our lives and our health. We can not and do not want to break away from modernization, technology, and its advantages.\nWe would certainly like to minimize exposure to its negative effects, especially electromagnetic radiation, using the precautionary principle.\nHere are some possible causes that you should be exposed to and know their potential hazards, increase your awareness and thus reduce your exposure to danger.\nElectrical panels at home\nThe electrical panel is the heart of the electrical system, and all the home electrical circuits are connected to the electrical panel. These electric conductors carry electric current, as is known every electric current carries an electric current creates a magnetic field around it, it is possible to understand and estimate what happens in the electric board that contains a large number of conductors carrying electric current.\nThe larger the current, the stronger the magnetic field, the more it is possible to understand that the magnetic field created around the main conductors feeding the electric panel is particularly high.\nTransformers that are located near the house\nSometimes the power company\u2019s transformers are located near residential buildings, the role of these transformers is to change the corresponding voltages and currents.\nThe current flowing through these transformers creates a magnetic field around it. The larger the transformer current, the greater the magnetic field in the vicinity.\nPower cables exposed and visible\nAs we mentioned, a conductor carrying a current creates a magnetic field around it, as it does around the cables that are buried in the walls of the house. Sometimes these cables pass near our bed, but because they are hidden in the wall, we do not feel the danger.\nAppliances in the close vicinity\nEven active electrical appliances emit magnetic field \"radiation.\" It is recommended not to stay in the vicinity of electrical appliances while they are active.\nFor example, a heater, a computer, a microwave, a hairdryer (you need to be careful when using these).\nIt is important to make sure that the lighting fixtures used have relatively low current consumption, such as an electronic ballast or fluorescent LED.\nRouters, WI-FI, and connection via network cables\nThe use of the WIFI network is expanding and is also being used in our home. We do not need to give up using it but reduce the exposure to the electromagnetic radiation emitted by using network cables in any case. For example, we can prefer connecting computers via a network cable rather than a wireless network.\nAs mentioned, radiation cannot be sensed, seen or smelled, so it is recommended to perform a periodic radiation test.\nIt must be ascertained that the radiation inspector is experienced and equipped with quality and accurate instruments, instruments suitable for the necessary tests and for providing recommendations and solutions if required.",

        "raw_content": "\ufeffThe Devil Went Down To The Crossroads\nOn October 3, 2018 September 30, 2018 By lkeke35In Book Adaptations, Essay, Fantasy, Horror, Lists, Movies\nOoh, standin\u2019 at the crossroad, tried to flag a ride\nOoh-ee, I tried to flag a ride\nStandin\u2019 at the crossroad, baby, eee-eee, risin\u2019 sun goin\u2019 down\n\u2014 Cossroad Blues \u2013 Robert Johnson\nI was inspired to write this essay by an episode of Supernatural, titled Crossroad Blues, which aired in season two, and is a direct reference to the above song. In the episode, Sam and Dean are investigating the deaths of two people who said they were being followed by Hellhounds, and chronicles their first meeting with a Crossroads demon, whose job it is to collect the souls of humanity by offering people their fondest wishes, for a limited span of time. When their time is up, (a year, or five, or ten), Hellhounds are sent to collect the hapless soul.\nThe folklore about haunted crossroads comes from many cultures, but the folklore referenced in this particular episode of the series is sourced directly from the part of the South in which my mother was born, the Mississippi Delta. This is the kind of music I grew up listening to, and my Mom was the one who tried to explain the concept of Hellhounds to me.\nThe idea of Hellhounds (Black Hounds, Black Shuck, or Fetches, as harbingers of death) isn\u2019t unique to the South either, but all these ideas come together directly from a song by Robert Johnson, where he sings about a man named Willie Brown, meeting the devil at a crossroads, making a deal with him for fame, and naturally, because the Devil is the Devil, regretting the whole matter, when it was time to pay up, and having to deal with the Hellhounds now on his trail..\nTales of bargains with The Devil are even older than that, with one of the most popular being the German legend of Johann Faust, who makes a deal with The Devil/ Mephistopheles, for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. So many movies, operas, plays, and stories have come from this legend, (and the Greek legend that spawned it), that it has become its own genre, The Faustian Pact/Bargain, in which a greedy person makes unethical, or soul destroying choices to get fame and glory,and pays a nasty price, although these specific stories are more religious in theme and origin than Southern folklore.\nThere are also lots of tales of The Devil traveling down South and losing bets, due to the cleverness, or skills, of a human opponent. Before The Devil Went Down to Georgia, he was sung about in Lonesome Fiddle Blues, a song later adapted by the Charlie Daniels Band in 1979. In the song, a boy named Johnny competes in a music contest with The Devil, for a golden fiddle, and wins. It\u2019s an entirely appropriate song for the show Supernatural, containing elements of Rock music and Country/ Bluegrass folk songs, and its David and Goliath theme of a little guy being underestimated, and triumphing, over a supposedly larger, stronger foe. Sounds like a couple of guys we know, huh?\nGoing down to a Crossroads, to make Faustian bargains, is also a popular trope. In the 1986 movie Crossroads, which was inspired by the legend of Robert Johnson and featured the title song, Joe Seneca stars as Willie Brown, who must go to the crossroads, and make a deal with The Devil to get back the soul he bargained away decades ago.\nWillie is accompanied in this soul quest by Ralph Macchio, as Eugene, and Jamie Gertz, as Eugene\u2019s scheming love interest, Frances. The movie culminates in a guitar showdown between Eugene and a famous Rock guitarist, named Jack Butler, played by Steve Vai, a contest which directly echoes the fiddling contest in The Devil Went Down to Georgia, right down to referencing two different genres of music. The Devil, also known as Legba, (from Voudon), and Scratch, (a very old Southern name), is gleefully played by Robert Judd. The very first time I ever heard that name for the Devil was from guess who!\nThe entire movie has a poetic resonance, because the music Eugene uses, in a desperate bid to win his contest against Jack Butler, is the same classical music style that he\u2019d spent the first half of the movie treating with some contempt.\nThe 1941 movie, The Devil and Daniel Webster, is another retelling of the Faust legend in which a famous lawyer goes up against the devil in a courtroom, to save the soul of a wayward farmer. Its based on the short story by Stephen Benet. The original title was changed to All That Money Can Buy.\nIn the 1987 Angelheart, The Devil, played by Robert Deniro, as Louis Cyphre, gets as far South as Louisiana in his search for a runaway soul housed in the body of Detective Harry Angel, played by Mickey Rourke. This movie was most famous for the sex scene depicted between Rourke, and Lisa Bonet, who was fresh off her stint on the much more wholesome Cosby Show. It\u2019s a gorgeous film, although somewhat gory. This doesn\u2019t contain a musical contest, but more of a contest of wills between Harry and Louis.\nMy favorite scene is one of the more innocent looking ones, where Deniro offers Harry an egg. Within the context of the movie, and its version of Christian mythology, the peeling of the egg is highly symbolic:\nIn the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches, Easter eggs are dyed red to represent the blood of Christ, with further symbolism being found in the hard shell of the egg symbolizing the sealed Tomb of Christ \u2014 the cracking of which symbolized his resurrection from the dead.\nIn this instance the egg represents the soul, most specifically the soul of Harry Angel as Louis Cyphre peels off the egg shell, which is symbolic of the plot of the film, as Harry peels back the layers of his life and memories, until he reaches the film\u2019s tragic conclusion.\nAngelheart is available on Hulu.\nOne of my personal favorites is this little nugget called The Devil and Daniel Mouse, based on the above movie, and created as a Canadian Halloween special in the early 80s. It took me a really long time to find this again. Once again, we get echoes of The Devil Went Down to Georgia, as the lead character tries to bargain back her soul from the devil, and is aided by the mouse who loves her, who contests the Devil in a musical fight.\nThis is available on Youtube.\nAnother cartoon offshoot of the Faustian Bargain is an echo of the above story called Rock and Rule. This is another favorite of mine, as it introduced me to a lot of different artists I\u2019d not heard of before like Lou Reed, and Iggy Pop. I was already a fan of Debbie Harry, though. Its a very surreal film, with lots of music, and well\u2026 no people, just these furry type citizens living as if they were people, and while the Devil isn\u2019t going down South in this movie, it does contain the Devil\u2019s Bargain theme. My favorite character is of course Mok, voiced by Don Francks, and sung by Lou Reed. My favorite song from this movie is Debbie Harry\u2019s Angel\u2019s Song.\n(The full movie is available on Youtube.)\nCheck out any of the above, and if you have any recs for more Faustian Bargain movies, let me know in the comments. I may or may not have seen them.\nOther Faustian Bargain films to Watch for Halloween:\nFinally here, have some more Robert Johnson:",

Even overshadowing *NSYNC in the day (which later brought real fame to Justin Timberlake), they were formed in 1993, and became hugely popular after debuting in the states in the summer of 1997. The five original members were A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, Nick Carter and Kevin Richardson. Richardson left in 2006, making them a four-man group for a while, then permanently returned to the band in 2012.\nBasically, Lou Pearlman was inspired by the success of New Kids on the Block and decided to start his own clean-cut band of boys. After plenty of legal troubles, they became first famous in Europe, and then became the Boy Band for girls to swoon over in the U.S., being a major part of late-90s pop culture. As time went on, New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys got along real well together for years and, due to that goodwill, eventually even combined into the supergroup NKOTBSB as a side project.\nAlexander James \"AJ\" McLean - born January 9, 1978. (1993\u0096)\nHoward Dwaine \"Howie D.\" Dorough - born August 22, 1973. (1993\u0096)\nNickolas \"Nick\" Carter - born January 28, 1980. (1993\u0096)\nKevin Richardson - born October 3, 1971. (1993\u00962006, 2012\u0096)\nBrian Littrell - born February 20, 1975. (1993\u0096)\nBackstreet Boys (U.S. edition; 1997)note A compilation of songs from their first two albums, released as their American debut. Uses the cover photo of Backstreet's Back.\nThe Hits: Chapter One (2001)note This was their greatest hits compilation, with \"Drowning\" being the album's only single.\nThe band has sold over 130 million records worldwide, making them one of the biggest selling groups of all time. According to Billboard 200, they are the first group since Sade to have their first seven albums reach the top 10 on the chart.\nTropes related to the band:\n'90s Hair: Nick (in)famously sported a bowl cut at the start of the group's career. He recently revealed, during a concert in Brazil, that he wanted to grow out his hair to look like Kurt Cobain, but thinks he ended up looking like a lesbian instead, which he sees as the reason why he wound up as the most popular among the fanbase.\nAffectionate Parody:\nThe music video for \"Just Want You to Know\" is a parody of the 80's Rockumentary Heavy Metal Parking Lot with the band playing Metalhead fans of a band called Sphynkter, which they also played.\nSphynkter's opening act? Tukkhis.\n\"If you want it to be good girl, get yourself a bad boy\".\nAlso, two words: AJ McLean.\nAlliterative Name: Backstreet Boys.\nBadass Beard: AJ's physical trademark, though both Kevin and Howie frequently have them as well.\nBadass Longcoat: Kevin in the video for \"I Want It That Way\" and \"The Call\".\nBand of Relatives: Brian and Kevin are cousins. Brian was brought in on Kevin's recommendation.\nBeach Episode: The music videos of both \"Incomplete\" and \"Inconsolable\" are mainly set on a beach.\nBig Ol' Eyebrows: Kevin is the embodiment of this trope.\nBolivian Army Ending: The music video for \"The Call\" ends with the boys facing a woman who is obviously pissed at them leading a bunch of people seemingly ready to beat them to death.\nBoy Band: Right above *NSYNC, they were the boyband of the late 90's. They are the most successful boy band of all time (although NSYNC were more successful domestically, and with social media, globalization, and possibly profitability, One Direction may surpass them).\nBreak-Up Song:\n\"Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)\" is a \"You're cheating on/lying to me so we're done\" type.\n\"Shape of My Heart\", \"Incomplete\", \"I Still\", \"Inconsolable\", and \"Don't Go Breaking My Heart\" all qualify as the \"Please don't go/I want you back/I wish we were still in love\" type.\n\"All I Have to Give\" and \"More Than That\" are the \"Attempting To Convince Someone To Breakup With Their Partner\" type.\nThe Bus Came Back: Kevin, who after leaving the band in 2006 in order to focus on living a more normal life with his family, didn't necessarily stop him from occasionally appearing as a guest from time to time, until he officially came back in 2012 \u2014 and with the band's 20th anniversary right around the corner, too.\nThe Cameo: They do this at the end of the 2013 movie This Is the End. All five of them.\nChildhood Friend Romance: The song \"How Did I Fall in Love With You\" is about the realization that the singer's friend is one of these.\nCool Shades: AJ is mostly seen wearing these. In some music videos, (specifically \"The Call\") he's even wearing his Sunglasses at Night.\nCool Starship: The main setting of the \"Larger Than Life\" music video.\nCrossover: With Arthur.\nCyborg: Nick and possibly AJ during the music video of \"Larger Than Life\".\nDance of Romance: Subverted in the \"Chances\" music video; it climaxes with the protagonists dancing and then sealing it with a Big Damn Kiss, only for this to be revealed as an Imagine Spot/What If? scenario.\nDead Person Conversation: \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\", in a meta sense, has the boys singing to their deceased loved ones (Howie to his late sister, Kevin to his late father, AJ to his late girlfriend and all the boys to their late mentor Denniz PoP).\nDead to Begin With: Brian in the \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\" music video.\nDeliberately Monochrome:\nThe video for \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\", for the most part, is shot in a desaturated color scheme with occasional splashes of red.\nMeanwhile, \"Shape of My Heart\", from the album Black & Blue, is shot in straight-up monochrome with a blue tint.\nDid Not Get the Girl: \"Shape of My Heart\", \"Incomplete\", \"I Still\" and \"Inconsolable\".\nDramatic Wind:\nBrian's segments in the \"Larger Than Life\" music video applies the Rule of Cool version of this.\nThe drama is played straight in the \"Incomplete\" music video.\nDue to the Dead: The music video of \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\" is openly dedicated to both their late manager and their deceased loved ones.\nEarly Installment Weirdness: Their first single, \"We've Got It Goin' On\", which features boastful lyrics, a funkier Parliament-esque tune and solos by Brian and AJ only, is jarringly different from any of the Boys' subsequent singles. The music video also tries to paint AJ as the Face of the Band, a move that didn't exactly work, and had Brian calling himself \"The B-Rockster\". Also notable is that the then-15-year-old Nick isn't even on the record, as he was going through puberty and his voice had just dropped.\nEmerging from the Shadows: The music video for \"Don't Go Breaking My Heart\" opens with the boys silhouetted by very bright lights in the background.\nEntitled to Have You: \"I'll Never Break Your Heart\", \"All I Have to Give\" and \"More Than That\" can have this vibe, though the point of all three is to encourage the love interest to leave or move on from an explicitly unhappy relationship.\nExty Years from Now: The music video for \"Larger Than Life\" is set at New Year's Eve 2999, a full millennium from around the time the single was released.\nFan Flattering: \"Larger Than Life\", \"Everyone\", and \"Bigger\". The last one is notable for being dedicated to the fans that stuck with them even after their popularity began to wane.\nFor Want of a Nail: \"Chances\" is about lovers pondering about the possible scenarios if they didn't come to each other's lives.\nFriendly Rivalry: With *NSYNC. See the trivia page for more details. It's their fans that hate each other.\nGood Parents: The guys have a tune called \"The Perfect Fan\" , written by Brian to his mother. The lyrics \"You showed me how to care / And you showed me that you would always be there\" pretty much give the gist of the whole thing.\nGrief Song:\n\"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\". It was supposedly dedicated to Dorough's dead older sister, and the video shows images and references to her and other lost loved ones of the band members, including Kevin's father, a girlfriend of AJ's who was killed by a drunk driver, and former producer Denniz PoP, who passed away in 1998.\nAlso, the title track to 2005's Never Gone.\nHuman Popsicle: The music video for \"Larger Than Life\" begins with the group being unfrozen at New Year's Eve 2999.\nHunter of His Own Kind: The twist to the plot of the \"Straight Through My Heart\" video.\nHyperlink Story: The music video for \"The Call\" features the boys in separate scenes and its plot moves to gradually pull them all together, with the very last scene/shot is showing all five of them finally together (though Nick and Howie came really close in crossing paths, with the former meeting the impostor of the latter).\nImagine Spot: The \"Chances\" music video concludes with The Reveal that the Meet Cute and climatic Dance of Romance of the protagonists actually didn't happen.\nInsistent Terminology: They are not a boy band, they are a vocal harmony group. Many fans will argue for their labeling as a 'pop group' or 'adult contemporary group' after the turn of the century, when they shifted their sound somewhat.\nIntercourse with You: \"Get Down (You're the One for Me)\" and the aforementioned \"If You Want It to Be Good Girl (Get Yourself a Bad Boy)\".\nLatin Lover: The appropriately named \"Spanish Eyes\".\nLong-Runner Line-up: Type 1 + 3.\nMan in White: The boys in the cover of \"Millennium\" and more famously during the dancing sequence of \"I Want It That Way\". They were also this during their aforementioned cameo (see above).\nManly Tears: AJ in the music video for \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\".\nMaybe Ever After: The music video for \"Chances\" concludes with The Reveal that the protagonists' climatic Dance of Romance is only an Imagine Spot, and they still haven't met yet. The final shot is them sitting back to back in a waiting area, giving the music video an open ending.\nMeet Cute: The music video of \"Chances\" builds up a typical boy meets girl story on a subway. It's actually a subversion as after they had their Dance of Romance and Big Damn Kiss, The Reveal comes that it was only an Imagine Spot.\nMeganekko: The female protagonist of the \"Chances\" music video is a cute young woman wearing specs.\nMeido: A number of them in the \"Bigger\" music video, with it being shot on a Cosplay Caf\u00e9 in Japan and all.\nMonster Mash: In the \"Everybody (Backstreet's Back)\" video. And thanks to that, the song became a popular choice to play at Halloween parties. The monsters in question are Dracula (Howie), a Mummy (Nick), a Werewolf (Brian), Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Kevin), and the Phantom (AJ).\nNice Hat: AJ is mostly seen wearing fedoras or skull caps.\nOnly Known by Initials: AJ, whose full name is Alexander James McLean.\nPerky Goth: AJ's look has become more goth-inspired over the years. It can sometimes be a bit jarring to see him (with his sleeve tattoos, black nail polish, black eye shadow and sometimes colorful hair) cheerfully singing and dancing to songs like \"Everybody (Backstreet's Back)\" and \"Larger Than Life\", or crooning ballads like \"I Want It That Way\".\nPerpetual Frowner: While they are capable of being light-hearted and fun, such as the above page image, their video for \"Just Want You to Know\", and their Dance Party Ending cameo in This Is the End, the general perception of them is that they're quite stoic and serious, in contrast to their chart rivals NSYNC, who were seen as Fun Personified.\nPower Walk: The boys are fond of doing this in their music videos.\nProjected Man: AJ's part in the \"Don't Go Breaking My Heart\" music video features a holographic version of the woman featured in most of the video.\nPut on a Bus: Kevin left the band in 2006 in order to focus on living a more normal life with his family, though he eventually rejoins six years later.\nRaven Hair, Ivory Skin: All the women that appeared in \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\" have pale skin and jet-black hair. It works really well to the video's Deliberately Monochrome.\nRescue Romance: In the music video for \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\", Nick and his estranged lover get back together after he rescues her from being ran over by a bus (as a homage to a fan who died being run over by a bus on a way to one of the Boys' concerts).\nRoom Full of Crazy: The video for \"The Call\", where the band members are being stalked and offed one-by-one by a woman who appears to be the incarnation of guilt. During the chase, Kevin passes through a room that has the words \"CHEAT\", \"LIAR\", \"TRAITOR\", etc. written all over the walls and ceiling.\nScenery Porn: Most of their music videos highlight the place where it was shot at.\n\"Sesame Street\" Cred: Re-recorded one of the Trope Namer's hit songs, along with Elmo. See here .\nArthur: Appeared in the special \"Arthur, It's Only Rock 'n' Roll\", which featured a Shot-for-Shot Remake of \"I Want It That Way\", complete with Muffy as the sad fangirl waving goodbye to the Boys at the end.\nSelf-Deprecation: Nick (and Jordan Knight of New Kids on the Block) re-enact some of their old photoshoots.\nSexy Soaked Shirt:\nThe infamous \"Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)\" music video.\nWhile \"Drowning\" has an alternate music video that also features the Boys in the rain, it's more Played for Drama than the Fanservice of \"Quit Playing Games\".\nThe music video of \"Straight Through My Heart\", which is set in a nightclub, has the sprinkles pouring the Fanservice Extras.\nRecently, during his guest appearance on Brazilian television show Legend\u00e1rios, Nick reenacted the \"Quit Playing Games\" example alongside host Marcos Mion. Unsurprisingly, the women in the audience went wild.\nSharp-Dressed Man: The boys in the cover of \"In a World Like This\". Also during the music video for \"Chances\", along with the male protagonist played by Daniel Radcliffe.\nShip Tease: The music video for \"Chances\" sets up a Meet Cute moment between the male and female protagonists, concluding with a Dance of Romance and Big Damn Kiss. Only it didn't really happen, though them meeting is still very possible given the video's open ending.\nShow Within a Show:\nThe music videos of both \"We've Got It Goin' On\" and \"Straight Through My Heart\" show the boys performing in gigs.\nThe music video of \"Shape of My Heart\" shows the boys rehearsing for a stage play.\nThe music video of \"The One\" is a Clip Show of their different concerts.\nShout-Out: On their 2009 tour, one of the interlude clips is a version of Fight Club with A.J. as Tyler Durden.\nSilly Love Songs: Their signature style.\nSinger Namedrop: \"Back... street's... back, ALL RIGHT!\"\nBefore that, there was \"We've Got It Goin' On\".\nJam on 'cause Backstreet's got it\nWe've got it goin' on for years\nSnow Means Death: It's snowing in the music video of \"Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely\" during the opening segment showing Brian is Dead to Begin With.\nSolo Side Project: Each of the boys have released their own independent albums. Nick has released three and one collaborative with Jordan Knight, AJ and Brian have released two, while Kevin and Howie both released one.\nSpace Opera: The music video for \"Larger Than Life\".\nSpontaneous Choreography: Just pick any of their music videos with dance moves. Go ahead.\nTalky Bookends: \"Everybody (Backstreet's Back)\" starts with the boys having to stay the night at a haunted house after their bus breaks down. The musical portion of the video is actually All Just a Dream, after which the boys wake up and decide to leave, but are scared by the sight of their bus driver as Frankenstein's monster.\nTall, Dark, and Handsome: Kevin's appeal. He's the tallest of the boys standing 6'1 (merely one inch taller than Nick), has dark hair and considered the group's Hunk.\nTechnician vs. Performer: AJ and Nick are the Performers, Brian, Howie, and Kevin were the Technicians.\nThe band are also the Technician (solid and rarely strayed from their Adult Contemporary style) to *NSYNC's Performer (elaborate performances and preference for experimenting with new styles).\nTelephone Song: In \"The Call\", the narrator calls his girlfriend so she doesn't suspect he's cheated on her with a girl he just met in a club.\nThe Movie: In 2015, their documentary Show 'Em What You're Made Of was released, chronicling the 20+ years they've spent together as a band since 1993 as well as the development process of the In a World Like This album.\nThree Minutes of Writhing: More like 1 Minute and 47 Seconds, but \"Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)\" could definitely be considered one of the few male examples of the trope. It starts with the boys sitting around on an abandoned basketball court, but after the second chorus comes a sudden downpour, and they all go from just singing to singing while writhing around in wet button-down shirts. Brian and Nick are the only ones not to have theirs open, while Howie is pretty much shirtless by the end of the video. As commented by Kevin in Show 'Em What You're Made Of, it made them look \"like a bunch of beefcakes\".\nTruck Driver's Gear Change: Repeat offenders starting with Millennium.\nVisual Pun: The music video of \"Shape of My Heart\", which is part of their Black & Blue album, is set in blue sepia... As in, black and blue.\nVocal Tag Team: All five of them have sung lead vocals.\nYour Cheating Heart: The subject of the song \"The Call\". The narrator has just cheated on his girlfriend with a girl he's just met in a club.\nYou Remind Me of X: Variant 1 (\"You remind me of myself\") is present in \"Show 'Em (What You're Made Of)\".\nYou find the truth in a child's eyes\nVocal Evolution: In more recent live performances, Brian's voice is often raspy and limited in range due to dysphonia and dystonia affecting his vocal chords.\nWhole Plot Reference: The music video of \"Straight Through My Heart\" is to the Blade Trilogy.\nWoman Scorned: The music video of \"The Call\" shows the group being stalked by a woman. Whether or not she's a Stalker with a Crush is never revealed.\nRecap/Arthur\nAll-CGI Cartoon\nUsefulNotes/Archie Comics Actors\nCreator/RCA Records\nUsefulNotes/Dancers\nCreator/Jive Records",

This programme is funded by DFG and started on October 1, 2015.\nFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ucsm_ude\nVisit us on Facebook: https://de-de.facebook.com/UCSM.UDE/\nGeneral Research Focus\nUser-Centred Social Media (UCSM)\nThe emergence of Social Media marks a significant step in the application of information and communication technology with a profound impact on people, businesses, and society. Social Media constitute complex sociotechnical systems, encompassing potentially very large user groups, both in public and organizational contexts, and exhibiting features such as user-generated content, social interaction and awareness, and emergent functionality. While Social Media use is widespread and increasing, significant research gaps exist with respect to analyzing and understanding the characteristics and determinants of user behaviour, both at the individual and the collective level, as well as regarding the user-centered design of Social Media systems, aiming at empowering users to better appropriate, control and adapt systems for their individual goals. There is a growing demand in academia and in industry for scientifically trained experts that are knowledgeable both in the human-oriented and the technical aspects of Social Media.\nThe Research Training Group \"User-Centred Social Media\" addresses this need by providing an outstanding interdisciplinary research and qualification environment, located in a University department that fully integrates researchers from computer science and psychology. Our research and qualification programme provides primarily students with a computer science, information systems and/or a psychology background with the knowledge and methods from these areas required to perform high-quality research and development in Social Media. The development of an interdisciplinary methodology forms a core part of the research programme and is be reflected in the individual dissertation themes. The programme comprises modular qualification components combined with interdisciplinary team structures as well as supervision and mentoring by internal and external scientists from both fields. The RTG obtains additional support through internal resources and associated researchers and benefits from the University's strong engagement in internationalization and diversity management.\nTo support collaboration between the participating chairs and within the established Interdisciplinary Working Groups, the RTG introduced UniConnect (UCT) and sciebo - the Campuscloud.\nFor any questions, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots.

        "raw_content": "Why the economy needs debt collectors.\nCompared with previous years, the percentage of late or unrecoverable payments is almost unchanged: In Western Europe every fifth invoice, and in Eastern Europe every fourth invoice, is not paid within the set payment term. Across Europe, the percentage of punctual payments has only risen marginally by one percentage point from 77 to 78%\nAlthough the percentage of actual payment defaults in Western Europe is at the same level as the previous year (3%), some countries in Eastern Europe like Greece, Slovakia and Hungary are seeing a reduction in payment defaults.\nIn the B2B segment, companies cite payment defaults by their own customers as the main reason for payment delays. Only German and Austrian companies regard the extended use of supplier credits as the main reason for payment delays.\nThe percentage of payment defaults remains constant at 3% for Western Europe and 4% for Eastern Europe, while at the same time the percentage of on-time payments is increasing.\nEvery second company in Eastern Europe and four out of ten companies in Western Europe are struggling with profit setbacks due to payment delays. Noticeable consequences of payment delays for companies are above all cash flow problems and higher interest payments. However, cash flow issues and profit setbacks due to payment delays also have a direct impact on the company's growth potential. At least every fourth company is dispensing with investments, while every fifth is responding to payment delays with price increases and a restrictive hiring policy.\nMost B2B customers cite payment defaults by their own customers as the main reasons for paying late or not all. Thus, poor payment practices can trigger a kind of domino effect throughout economies.\nA total of 41% of the European companies polled work regularly with debt collection providers. The percentage of companies relying exclusively on outsourced receivables management is currently 11% (B2B) and 9% (B2C). On average, companies recover about 8% of their revenue by working with receivables management service providers (Eastern Europe 9%, Western Europe 7%).\nThe financial resources that become available to the company again through working with receivables management service providers primarily go towards settling their own debts and therefore targets the main reason for payment delays, i.e. payment defaults by a company's own customers.",

The Socialists lead in opinion polls with about 40 percent support.\nThe cabinet reshuffle comes after the government this weekend approved next year\u2019s draft budget, which will be presented on Monday to parliament.\nThe reshuffle was announced in a statement by the office of President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, who has to approve the nominations. The new ministers will be sworn in on Monday.\nSiza Vieira, a lawyer, joined the government a year ago after previously working for law firm Linklaters. He will replace outgoing Economy Minister Manuel Caldeira Cabral. Under the change the energy sector will be transferred to the environment ministry.\nDefence Minister Jose Azeredo Lopes resigned on Friday amid an investigation into a suspected army cover-up of the theft of a cachet of arms from a military depot last year. He will be replaced by Joao Gomes Cravinho, who is currently the European Union\u2019s ambassador to Brazil.\nGraca Maria da Fonseca will become the new minister of culture after working as secretary of state for administrative modernisation.\nMarta Temido, who previously headed the central administration of the public health system, will take over as health minister.

Paul Chapman reports.\nThe force of the quake that shook parts of Mexico brought people onto the streets in their thousands. Despite the power of the 7.4 magnitude quake there've been no reports of any deaths. A bus driver escaped with minor injuries when a bridge collapsed in Mexico city. Hundreds of homes in Mexico city, neighbouring Oaxaca, and near the epicentre in Guerrero state have been damaged. Tourists have been describing the drama. SOUNDBITE: UNIDENTIFIED CANADIAN TOURIST SAYING (English): \"We were on the 20th floor and everything started shaking and the windows were shaking and I sat on the floor. It was very scary.\" SOUNDBITE: RICK WYATT, TOURIST FROM SEATTLE, SAYING (English): \"We were coming out of the doors and all of a sudden people were running along and we joined them and when we got to the front entrance we could feel things going back and forth.\" Tom Heaton, director of California Institute of Technology's Earthquake Engineering Research Lab, says Mexico is no stranger to strong quakes. SOUNDBITE: DR TOM HEATON, DIRECTOR OF EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING RESEARCH LAB, CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, SAYING (English): \"In this case the earthquake is in the ocean plate that's being shoved beneath the continent and in those cases it's not too common to have extensive damage from an earthquake this size, especially in this part of the world. They've had a number of magnitude seven earthquakes so in a sense they're somewhat acclimated to it.\" There's been several aftershocks but Mexico's president says there are no reports of serious damage.

        "raw_content": "Should I select Traditional or Simplified Chinese for my translation?\nWhen it comes to Chinese, there is a distinction between the spoken and written forms of the language. There are dozens of dialects in China, but the most widely spoken ones are Mandarin and Cantonese. Written Chinese on the other hand has only two main writing systems, Traditional and Simplified.\nTraditional Chinese is one of the oldest written languages, dating back thousands of years. Simplified Chinese was introduced by the Chinese government in 1956 in an effort to promote literacy. The new script\u2019s characters were simplified by reducing the number of strokes.\nGenerally speaking, it\u2019s much easier for someone who reads Traditional Chinese to read Simplified Chinese than other way around. As a result, it is not uncommon for people who cannot communicate verbally in Chinese to be able to understand each other through writing.\nKeep in mind that one\u2019s dialect does not determine which script someone uses to write. That depends on their native region. A Mandarin speaker for example may write in the Traditional or Simplified script depending on whether they are from Singapore or Taiwan. Therefore, your written translation will not depend on the spoken language of your target audience but rather on where they come from.\nThis table summarizes the written and spoken preferences of each major Chinese territory:\nCountry Spoken Language Written Language\nPeople\u2019s Republic of China (PRC) Mandarin Simplified Chinese\nPRC Guangzhou Province Cantonese Simplified Chinese\nPRC Hong Kong Cantonese Traditional Chinese\nSingapore Mandarin Simplified Chinese\nTaiwan Mandarin Traditional Chinese\nAge is another factor to consider when deciding which script to use. The aging population tends to write in the Traditional script. For Medicare documents and other medical forms geared toward this population it is recommended to use Traditional Chinese. Currently the majority of Chinese in the U.S. use Traditional Chinese, but this trend is shifting towards Simplified Chinese. If your target audience is younger, or has more recently immigrated from China, it may be more appropriate to choose Simplified Chinese which is now taught in most Chinese schools.\nIf you\u2019re still not sure whether your materials should be translated into Traditional or Simplified Chinese, talk to your translation company. Your provider can give you some samples of Traditional and Simplified text which you can show to your audience to determine their preference.\nWant to learn more?

        "raw_content": "Giving it all to my job right now\nI\u2019m leading part of a large training event at work right now and its sucking up all of my creative energy to complete it. And I\u2019m working long days and putting in hours on weekends to finish all of the deliverables on time. Luckily, I\u2019m working with a good team.\nI traveled by car last week and was so tired on day 2 of the training session, I looked right at someone I\u2019ve known for 12 years and couldn\u2019t remember his name. Just blanked. Name gone. Later, I had to Google, \u201cfatigue and memory loss.\u201d Yep, it can happen.\nMy memory improved with a good night of sleep. But why I was so tired was something most of my co-workers didn\u2019t understand. What they didn\u2019t know was when I go back to the hotel, I have 90 minutes of treatments to complete before sleeping. Then I get to wake up early in the morning to knock out another 90 minutes. So, working long hours and having CF is a bad mix on the road and equals limited sleep.\nAnd I have more travel coming soon \u2013 on a plane.\nI don\u2019t remember the last time I was on a plane. It must have been at least three or four years ago. I\u2019m going to give it a try again for this project that has consumed much of my time these days. I\u2019m not looking forward to flying, and a small nugget of fear in my head grows larger as the day approaches. I will self-medicate for the flight.\nOne worry I have is that I now use O2 at night. I need to find a place that rents O2 generators in the other city. My center couldn\u2019t help. So, I\u2019m going to call the CF center where I\u2019m going to ask if they can help.\nThat\u2019s it for now. I miss blogging. But there are bills to pay and a 12-year old to send to college. No rest for the weary.\nPosted in cystic fibrosis, Travel, working\t| Tagged cystic fibrosis, Obsessive\u2013compulsive disorder\t| Leave a reply",

        "raw_content": "Sims that work in the Nature Science career, Neighborhood 1 Sims, Pleasantville Sims,\nSims with moustaches\nLight-Skinned Sims\nExcitable Sims\nSims that can't stand art\nGrumpy and anti-social, Mortimer brings his Neighborhood 1 upbringing to the modern age. He has an unusual fetish for insects.\nMortimer \"Martin\" Goth (also known as Mr Addams) is a pre-created sim residing in the Addams Manor in Pleasantville with his daughters Cassandra and Alexandra. His wife, the well-known gangster Bella has been flushed down a toilet by Rod Humble and has yet to be found.\nMortimer was born in the year 2000 in Neighborhood 1, which could possibly refer to The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland or perhaps Sweden. His parents are Gunty and Corny Goth.\nIn The Sims 3, Mortimer is a child with no friends, except for a gangster woman with a strange turn-on for red dresses and her jock brother. His traits are Excitable, Can't Stand Art and Couch Potato. The \"couch potato\" trait may be a reference to his favorite food in the game (British Potatoes). He is an E- student and has nine points in Dumbness. Ironically, he is very happy in this game.\nIn The Sims Bustin' Out he lives with his wife Bella Goth in the Addams Manor. His wife has realized that no matter what gun you use, the ghosts won't die, and therefore hires The Ghostbusters to hunt them down. Here, he speaks with an Derby accent and works as a flower spreader. He has for some reason dyed his hair grey in this game, possibly to match his puberty hair.\nIn The Sims Console his hair is Back in Black and he lives at 22 Acacia Avenue with his wife (who still hasn't retired from her Gangster career) and their daughter Cassandra. He likes to play SSX3 and water the flowers (possibly a reference to Bustin' Out).\nHe also appears in The Sims for PC with his wife and daughter. Nothing special about them, except that they are back in the Addams Manor with a few more tombstones (and obviously, flowers).\n25 years later (in The Sims 2) his gangster wife has been flushed down a toilet by Rod Humble and he is now in love with a fortune sim called Nina Caliente. It is implied by the game that her romantic sister Dina Caliente is slightly interested in him too. What a huge promotion, from a family man to a heartbreaker! He also got promoted at work to Ecological Guru and is now old (so old he will soon join his relatives in the graveyard) and retired. His parents drowned (in separate pools) and now has a second child, a daughter named Alexandra. He strongly approves of his other daughter's recent engagement to the town family man, Donny Lothario.\nOddly, when opening his DNA in SimPe, he has red hair and freckles, and of course, no soul. This has led a lot of players to believe he might be a robot built by Ron Weasley to obliterate humanity, but this is only speculations and not confirmed by EAxis (yet).\nBella's Disappearance Edit\nOne of the minor plot lines in Pleasantville is the disappearance of Mortimer's wife Bella, who was flushed down a toilet by Rod Humble. Most evidence points to it being an \"accident\", but most players believe it was her gangster rivals who payed Rod Humble to get rid of her. However, nobody cares enough to investigate this further, except for silly conspiracy theorists with no deodrant. These conspiracy theorists believe the \"accident\" was a plan to make the Caliente sisters look like they only cared about Mortimer's money and penises. But everyone is too busy accusing the Calientes of being evil bitches, gold-digging hoes and murderers so this is not investigated at all.\nMortimer Goth in Other Games, Movies and Television Edit\nEven though he is not the most well-known sim of them all (Erik Swag) he appears quiet a lot in games like Skyrim, Minecraft, The Sims 3, Mafia II and SSX3. He also voices Lightning McQueen in the movie Cars and might have been the main inspiration for Zalachenko in the Millennium trilogy.\nMortimer's appearance is slightly based on Robert Sheehan, an actor from Great Britain.\nThe song \"Call Me Maybe\" by Carly Rae Jepsen was a tribute to Mortimer and Dina's love for one another.\nThere is an XXX-rated video hidden in the game files called \"Mortimer's Touch\".\nHis family is the only family not to be included in any of the Grand Theft Auto games.\nMortimer is the only sim who is dead in all the Call of Duty games.\nHe loves garlic, according to the Spanish version of The Sims 3. Although it is more likely they mistranslated \"British Potato\" to \"Garlic\".\nHe was the last sim created in Pleasantville.\nMortimer is the only pre-made sim who wasn't on the The Sims 3 cover.\nHarry Potter makes a reference to Mortimer in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire when he shouts \"I VOLUNTEER!\" at the Triwizard Tournament reaping.\nHe is named Homer Simpson in the Spanish version of The Sims 2.\nRetrieved from \"https://unsims.fandom.com/wiki/Mortimer_Goth?oldid=3974\"\nSims that work in the Nature Science career",

        "raw_content": "Co-author: Jack Benyon\nThe new FIA Formula 3 car will be \u201cmore difficult to drive\u201d due to tyres which have more severe degradation than its GP3 Series predecessor, according to tyre manufacturer Pirelli.\nThe FIA Formula 3 championship has been created by merging European Formula 3 and GP3, with the new series being headed by Formula 2 and GP3 supremo Bruno Michel.\nMany of the existing characteristics, including the engine and gearbox, remain from the Dallara GP3/16 car, but increased downforce and more varied set-up options form part of the new package.\nIn line with the new championship, Pirelli motorsport racing manager Mario Isola confirmed that the new tyres in the series would degrade quicker than in GP3.\n\u201cWe have developed a specific tyre for F3 because some of the characteristics of the car are different,\u201d Isola told Motorsport.com.\n\u201cOn top of that we have a clear request from the promoter to have more degradation.\n\u201cIn his wishlist, more degradation from the rear, to make the car oversteer more during the stint.\n\u201cWe have worked with a new construction and also new compounds to achieve this result.\n\u201cThe tyre is the same size because the rim size is the same, but in terms of construction and compounds they are new.\n\u201cThey [drivers and teams] can react to have a set-up to help with the oversteer, but the target is to make the car a bit more difficult to drive at the end of the stint.\n\u201cThat\u2019s talent, to manage the car.\u201d\nIsola added that the changes have been made because of the forming of the new series, and not out of a mechanical necessity.\n\u201cIt\u2019s more the request to have the new target rather than the changes to the car,\u201d he added. \u201cThe car is not far from the old GP3.\n\u201cIn theory we could have used the old GP3 tyre specification.\n\u201cBut because we have a new car with new characteristics, and also the request from the promoter to have a new tyre, we decided to have a new development.\u201d\nAlso related to the car changes, downforce on the new machine will be limited during races.\n\u201cFor free practice and qualifying, the drivers can use the full potential of downforce, but for the race we will reduce it by limiting the angle of the rear wing to make sure the braking distance will be slightly longer,\u201d F3 technical boss Didier Perrin told the FIA\u2019s Auto magazine.\nThe car has tested at Jerez, Bahrain and Abu Dhabi since it was revealed in November last year, with sportscar ace and new DragonSpeed Indycar signing Ben Hanley conducting the running.\nTeams and drivers will get real track time at the shakedown on February 20 at Magny Cours, with one-car per team.\nOfficial tests start at Paul Ricard (March 20-21), before moving on to Barcelona on April 09-10. The last test takes place at the Hungaroring on April 17-18 before the season kicks off at Barcelona on the second weekend in May.\nPirelli tyre detail",

        "raw_content": "Monitoring and Evaluating Cycling in Canadian Cities\nGallagher_Kathleen.pdf (14.36Mb)\nMany cities in North America have stated goals in their Official Plans, Transportation Plans, and other municipal documents related to cycling. A common objective is to increase the number and proportion of cyclists for either utilitarian or both utilitarian and recreational trips. To determine whether they are progressing towards achieving their goals, it is necessary that cities periodically and accurately monitor and measure their levels of cycling. This thesis aims to assess the different methods used for monitoring cycling in Canadian cities, as well as individual cities\u2019 overall monitoring programs. The advantages and disadvantages of different methodologies and technologies are discussed, and best practices are provided. Four case study cities: Vancouver, Halifax, Calgary and Toronto are assessed according to a list of best practices developed by Hudson et al. (2010). Themes and patterns emerge and the cities are compared and contrasted. A summary of Canadian cities\u2019 efforts is presented and the cities are ranked in the following order: #1 Vancouver; #2 Toronto; #3 Calgary; and #4 Halifax. In addition, the results of two surveys from the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area are compared at the census tract (CT) level to assess their reliability. The Bicycling Share of Work Trips (BSWT) from the Transportation Tomorrow Survey (TTS) and Statistics Canada\u2019s Canadian Census (the Census) is examined to identify whether research from different sources is producing the same results. Geographic Information Systems are used to examine and compare the spatial patterns of the survey results and descriptive statistics are used to quantify the differences. It was found that the surveys are producing significantly different results and that there appears to be little spatial pattern in the difference between them. This research allows Canadian cities and other interested parties to learn about the various methods for monitoring cycling, to see which methods are being used in Canadian cities, to decide which methods are best for their specific needs, and to more comprehensively understand the BSWT from the Census and the TTS.\nKathleen Gallagher (2013).

As Christians we freely receive real life from God and we are called to freely give life to others.\nOur LIFE TEAMS do exactly that, they go out and give life to the ones that need it the most. Although the teams always carry an evangelistic message when they go out, their focus is more on a practical side. They show their faith through their works. Biblical Salvation is a holistic concept parallel to the Hebrew concept of Shalom describing a state where everything is the way God intended it to be. Therefore, at the heart of our outreaches is a holistic approach to both community development and the proclaiming of the Gospel.\nSometimes we form a team with our own staff and participants and go out, sometimes it is teams coming from overseas. The spectrum of work goes from strategic community development projects (clean water, healthcare, construction) all the way to what\u2019s sometimes called \u2018Acts of Random Kindness\u2019 where the teams go and serve people in any way possible \u2013 cleaning houses, gardening, shopping, doing laundry, etc. Yes, we do host YWAM outreach teams and this is where they fit in. We encourage especially outreach teams from second level schools to consider working with us.\nIf you are considering sending an outreach team to stay and work with us, please keep in mind that we need to know at least 3 months ahead of your arrival in Vanuatu in order for us to set up a successful outreach for your team.",

        "raw_content": "NEI awards $3.2 million for visionary retina research\nThe National Eye Institute (NEI) has awarded a five-year, $3.2 million grant for a UC Berkeley-led project to map the interaction of retinal cells in an effort to better understand how visual data is processed before it is sent to the brain.\nHuman retinal cells taken with adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy. Real-time eye tracking allows researchers to optically stimulate individual photoreceptors, as illustrated by the green focused beam in the main figure and in the inset, which shows a magnified mosaic of cones, the cells in the retina responsible for color vision. The dark branched structures are shadows of blood vessels. Image courtesy of Lawrence Sincich and Kady Bruce, University of Alabama Birmingham.\nThe project is among five awards announced today (Friday, May 1) by the NEI as part of its Audacious Goals Initiative, an ambitious program to catalyze research into treatments for blindness. The focus of the initiative is on restoring sight by regenerating neurons and neural connections in the visual system, particularly in the retina.\nThe NEI is committing up to $17.9 million over five years for this effort.\nAustin Roorda, a UC Berkeley professor of optometry and vision science, is the principal investigator of the retinal mapping project. He will be working with E.J. Chichilnisky and Daniel Palanker, both professors of ophthalmology at Stanford University, and B. Hyle Park, an assistant professor of bioengineering at UC Riverside.\nThe research team will design a system that can not only map cellular interaction in the retina, but can also help monitor the function in regenerated cells. The system will incorporate eye tracking components and adaptive optics.\n\u201cWe have entered the research phase of the Audacious Goals Initiative. Projects in this first round of AGI funding will bridge gaps in current technology, enabling later phases of the initiative,\u201d said Dr. Paul Sieving, NEI director, in a press statement. Sieving is scheduled to detail the research grants today at the 2015 Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology annual meeting.\nNIH launches research to gaze deeply into your eyes (NEI press release)\nNEI Audacious Goals Initiative\nResearch profile for Austin Roorda",

We will never list an extension purely on the basis of an unsubstantiated report on an exploit site, they are notoriously inaccurate, we always take care to check whether it can be substantiated. We found that some were valid, but a significant number were mistaken. Some appeared to be due to issues with the demo site itself, such as an outdated PHP version, and nothing at all to do with any sqli. In others, while there was a vulnerability, it was clearly in a different extension from the one being reported. In some cases we found no evidence of a vulnerability at all, and no basis for the report.\nIn all cases it was clear that the reporter had taken no steps to inform the developer, and had simply posted the results on an exploit site.\nWhat it does tell us is that\nUsing a vulnerability scanner can be deceptive and you can not always trust the results;\nYou must thoroughly know your test bed testing or you may get inaccurate results;\nDont cry wolf, you will get more respect if you report at the right time, in the right place, and accurately.\nIf you discover a security issue in joomla core, visit https://developer.joomla.org/security-centre.html\nIf you discover a security issue with an extension, visit https://vel.joomla.org/submit-vel and also inform the developer.",

        "raw_content": "Opinion & AnalysisBolivarian Project\n\u201cOur Model of Socialism Must Be Profoundly Democratic\u201d\nBaduel\u2019s speech ruffled some feathers in Venezuela because some believed that he was issuing an indirect criticism of Chavez. A more charitable interpretation, though, is that he was merely telling the country in which direction he believes 21st socialism must go. We reprint the full text of Baduel's speech here.\nBy Gen. Ra\u00fal Isa\u00edas Baduel\nJul 23rd 2007 at 11.35am\nEditor\u2019s note: General Ra\u00fal Isaias Baduel held a widely reported speech on the occasion of his leaving the office of Defense Minister. The event was also one in which Chavez swore in the new defense minister and a new military high command. Baduel is a long-time friend of President Chavez, who co-founded the MBR-200 with Chavez, the clandestine movement that was later to organize the 1992 coup attempt against then-president Carlos Andr\u00e9s Perez. [correction from earlier version: Baduel did not participate in that coup and thus was able to remain in the military.] More recently, Baduel was instrumental in bringing Chavez back into office during the April 2002 coup attempt. Baduel\u2019s speech ruffled some feathers in Venezuela because some believed that he was issuing an indirect criticism of Chavez. A more charitable interpretation, though, is that he was merely telling the country in which direction he believes 21st socialism must go.\nI want to begin this speech by thanking from my soul, in the first place the almighty and eternal Lord, for having given me the privilege to serve him from this position, being protected by his powerful hand. And to all the people that with your help, work, dedication, and exchanges, aided me in bringing my time at the front of the Ministry of Defense to a happy conclusion.\nI want to give a very special thanks to the President and Commander in Chief of the Bolivarian Armed Forces for the trust that he held in me, assigning me to this responsibility. To you, my Commander in Chief, my friendship and affection.\nMy fellow soldiers deserve to be mentioned as well, who make up around me a team of invaluable contribution, the successful result of our daily labor, it would have been impossible without them. To them, my eternal gratitude and my friendship forever, whatever road they may take.\nToday, as a command from the lord and from my superiors, I will be succeeded by General Gustavo Reyes Rangel Brice\u00f1o, a colleague and a friend, whose virtues and religious principles will greatly serve him during his time in this position. To you, my colleague and friend, my best wishes and may God\u2019s guidance illuminate all your decisions.\nI have had the honor to hold the position of Minister of Defense, a position that requires whoever holds it, by principle and by law, to show his judgment in the direction of the men and the strategy and policy of the state, with a view toward the future so that the citizens of our nation, who today are in an unprecedented political and social transition, know the professionalism of his actions, and, as a consequence, can rest knowing and trusting the decision of their Military Commander, and the institutions of the Venezuelan government.\nWhen I say that we find ourselves in an unprecedented transition, the political and social order that our nation is experiencing, among other things, I am referring to the process of construction of a new political, economic, and social order that we have denominated 21st Century Socialism. The term socialism, unfortunately, does not have a homogenous and fixed meaning for everyone who uses the term and from there comes, perhaps, the uncertainty and uneasiness that is created in some sectors of the country when it is only mentioned. The call from President Hugo Chavez to construct 21st Century Socialism implies the urgent necessity to formalize our own theoretical model of socialism that is adapted to our historical, social, cultural, and political context.\nWe have to admit that this theoretical model, for the time being, does not exist, nor has it been formulated and I am guessing that as long as it remains so, there will remain uncertainties in some social groups. As I have said, on the other hand, we must invent 21st Century Socialism, yes, but not in an unorganized and chaotic way, but rather taking advantage of the tools and the framework of references that science gives us.\nWe must invent our own model, with logic, with methodology, with order, and consciousness. On the Al\u00f3 Presidente TV show on March 27th, 2005, Mr. President indicated, and I quote, \u201cThe socialism of Venezuela will be built according to the original ideas of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.\u201d\nMore recently last Monday, in the graduation event at the Institute of Higher Studies for National Defense, Mr. President demanded from us deep research and analysis and constructive criticism. Reiterating what I have mentioned before, if the base for the construction of 21st Century Socialism is a scientific theory of Marx and Engels, what we build definitely has to be what we construct on top of it. It cannot be anything less or we risk that our construction will be nothing more than a humble hut built upon the foundation of a skyscraper.\nWe have listened in recent times to some theorists who want to contribute to the construction of a specifically Venezuelan socialist model, about how inconvenient it would be to repeat the errors made in countries known as socialist, among them the emblematic example of the extinct Soviet Union. However, I think that the errors that these theorists point to belong exclusively to the failures of the political order of the Soviet model, for example, with respect to the relationship between the revolutionary party and the government, and between the party and the population, or in the danger in making the same errors of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which became n organization that substituted and displaced the society, and ended up being controlled by the Central Committee of the Party.\nIn the political order, our model of socialism must be profoundly democratic. It must explain once and for all that a system of socialist production is not incompatible with profoundly democratic political system and division of power. In this aspect, I think that indeed we should separate ourselves from the Marxist orthodoxy that considers that democracy with a division of powers is only an instrument of bourgeois domination. As our President pointed out in an interview with Manuel Cabieses, the director of the magazine Punto Final, I quote, \u201cIn the political line, one of the determining factors of 21st Century Socialism must be participatory democracy, popular power, everything has to be centered in the people. The party must be subordinated to the people, not the other way around.\u201d\nHowever, the errors of the political order are not the only errors that we should consider. We must not forget something fundamental. Socialism is, in a strict sense, a system of economic production, just like the capitalist system that it must replace is also a system of economic production but in subjugating terms against the human condition, and therefore, with an abysmally different focus.\nThey also committed errors of an economic sense in the socialist countries. Against those, we also must be on guard so to not repeat them. The economic errors of these socialist countries, like the Soviet Union, include the insufficient creation of wealth. Despite having achieved advanced industrialization, having a centrally planned economy and having 5-year plans, the Soviet economy could not be profitable. It could not create the wealth necessary to keep its population comfortable.\nOne of the great paradoxes and contradictions of the Soviet economy is reflected in the fact that the nation came to depend on imported wheat coming from its archenemy during the Cold War, the United States of America, in order to feed its population. As example of that, in 1979 the US government of the time sent the Soviet Union 25 million tons of corn and wheat. The Soviet Union could not take the definitive step forward to reach the same levels of efficiency in the creation of wealth as its capitalist competitors, even though it achieved notable advances in social material, in education, sports, health, and art among others. Certainly we do not want to repeat these errors either. We cannot permit our system to be transformed into state-led capitalism, where the state is the only owner of the means of production.\nA country can make the error of nominally calling itself socialist, and in reality practice state-led capitalism. During some time, and after the stage known as war communism, the Soviet Union still called itself a socialist republic while actually practicing state-led capitalism, at the urging of Lenin himself. At that time, between the years 1921 and 1927, the stage that is known as the new political economy, this action was justified, alleging the economic errors of the so-called communism of war that led to the rebellion of Kronstadt and other events that almost liquidated the Bolshevik revolution.\nThis period of war communism that went from 1917 to 1921, was characterized, above all, by failure, failure in agriculture and failure in industrial activity. The policy of total nationalization of all the agricultural companies, industry, and the general discontent ended in anarchy, hunger, and anti-communist rebellion. The prices went up vertically, while the production fell, and the currency lost value and stopped being a normal mode of exchange. Agricultural production was one-third of its volume in 1913. Industrial production corresponded to 13 percent of its level in that same year and train traffic was 12 percent. It is estimated that in 1921 five million people died of hunger in the Soviet Union. War communism left the message that you cannot implant abrupt changes in the economic system, such as the sudden abolition of private property and the brutal socialization of the means of production, without it having negative repercussions in the production of goods and services and without consequently generating general discontent in the population.\nLenin coined the term state-led capitalism to refer to what he considered to be the ideal transitional phase between capitalism and socialism. This means a co-existence, for a period of seven years, of capitalism with socialism. Private ownership of small and medium-sized means of production was permitted. However, the state reserved for itself the large means of production. The bank was nationalized but trade was left in private hands and they allowed products to be sold at the prices that the market fixed.\nOne of the attractive things that classic socialism has always practiced is the underlying idea that a socialist system must be able to have a more equitable and fair distribution of wealth than a capitalist system where the immense inequalities are the order of the day. But there is something that we must not forget, that perhaps many times we overlook, that before wealth can be distributed, it must be created. You cannot distribute something that does not exist. That formula has not been invented yet. The model of socialism that we develop must be that one. One that shows us the socialist road toward production and creation of wealth first and later allows equitable distribution of that wealth among those who generate it. Or as Marx would say, I quote \u201cFrom each according to his ability, and to each according to his needs.\u201d\nFor the socialist model that we propose to be successful, it must find the way to make the Venezuelan people more productive. In the past, during the Fourth Republic, the governments used the excessive wealth generated by the oil boom to finance all kinds of economic help and subsidies. Many Venezuelans came to depend entirely on official aid. Instead of teaching Venezuelans how to create wealth through work and effort, it taught them to ask for help from the government.\nWhen the oil boom ended, the government suddenly found itself without the funds to continue subsidizing the national economy. It was at that time when the country fell into the crisis, the worst of all Venezuelan history. Our model of socialism must and has to avoid the repetition of those errors. We need to learn\u2026\nWe need to learn from the errors made during the last four decades and avoid repeating them at all costs.\nAnd our President\u2019s call to construct and invent 21st Century Socialism has also been accompanied by some guidelines and directives such as that our model must and has to be profoundly Christian, based in the ideas of social justice, of Christ our savior.\nI think it is pertinent to quote a passage of the bible that illustrates well what our Lord Jesus thought with respect to the creation and distribution of wealth. It is the known passage of the talents, found in the book of Mathew, chapter 25, verse 14 to 20. Jesus says there, and I quote, \u201cit is just like a man about to go on a journey, who called his own slaves and entrusted his possessions to them. To one he gave five talents, to another, two, and to another, one, each according to his own ability; and he went on his journey. Immediately the one who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and gained five more talents. In the same manner the one who had received the two talents gained two more. But he who received the one talent went away and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master\u2019s money. Now after a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them.\u201d\nWith that, Jesus Christ goes directly against the absolutist concept of property that prevailed during that time and that some seem to still hold, that one can do with their property as they please. This contradicts our Lord Jesus because of the obligation of settling the accounts according to the use of moral, intellectual, and material goods, and the settling of accounts means a harsh punishment. The bible continues by saying, \u201cThe one who had received the five talents came up and brought five more talents, saying, \u2018Master, you entrusted five talents to me. See, I have gained five more talents.\u2019 His master said to him, \u2018Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.\u2019 Also the one who had received the two talents came up and said, \u2018Master you entrusted two talents to me. See, I have gained two more talents.\u2019 His master said to him, \u2018Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.\u2019\u201d\nTo each one he demanded from them according to their ability. To each one according to their talents, to each one according to the goods that he had received. He could not demand the same from the one who had receive five, as from the one who received two. The duties of human beings are not comparable. Our responsibility, although of the same nature, is different for some than for others. From he who has received much, much will be demanded.\nIn the end, Jesus Christ, condemns hoarding in this passage very clearly and plainly, when Mathew says, and I quote, \u201cAnd the one also who had received the one talent came up and said, \u2018Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did no sow and gathering where you scattered no seed. And I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.\u2019 But his master answered and said to him \u2018You wicked, lazy slave, you knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed. Then you ought to have put my money in the bank, and on my arrival I would have received my money back with interest. Therefore, take away the talent from him, and give it to the one who has the ten talents, for to everyone who has shall be given and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away. Throw out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.\u2019\u201d\nFrom who he had given little, he demanded little. But even so, he did not fulfill even a little, to hell with this man. Hell is, in the bible, the inevitable punishment for he who having the possibility, does not produce; for he who has the ability, does not use it, for he who is poor because he has been given little, does not use the little that he has for the good of others.\nIn order to achieve the goal of creating wealth in a different way from the capitalist model, our socialism must educate the people, as the famous teacher Simon Rodriguez said, I quote \u201cThere cannot be a republic without the people.\u201d In order to educate the people, Simon Rodriguez would suggest the implementation of what he called in a visionary manner, social education. Simon Rodriguez affirmed in 1828 the following: I quote, \u201cThe customs that form social education produce a public authority. It is not a personal authority but an authority sustained by the will of all. Not the will of only one converted into authority. The authority is formed through education, because to educate is to create will. Authority is developed in customs which are necessary effects of education, and it returns to the education because of the tendency of the effects to reproduce authority. It is a circulation of the spirit of union among partners, as are the blood and the body of each associated individual, but circulation begins through life.\u201d\nOur model must break the bad customs of the past, of teaching rights to the people, but not duties. Our socialist model must teach the people what they have to do in order to obtain what they don\u2019t have. Our socialist model must teach the people that things don\u2019t appear magically, but rather you must obtain them through effort and work. That must be the task of true social education that allows the formation of the citizen that we need in order to acquire the potential that this beloved, blessed, and god-protected Venezuelan land is capable of. In that sense the Bolivarian Armed Forces can contribute a lot to the construction of a model since education in the armed institution has always been reversed. We have learned and practiced that our duties are the first priority of importance, and just as is pointed out in our rules, the principal and fundamental duty of every soldier is civic duty, the duty of citizenry; to be a citizen with some very special characteristics, a citizen that is at the service of the rest of the citizenry.\nThe fulfillment of duties is one of the greatest things a soldier ponders. We can attest to this in recent years, and above all with the popular approval of the 1999 Constitution, our duties and responsibilities have increased, since now we have besides the inherent traditions of security and defense of the nation, and the cooperation in the maintenance of internal order, the active participation of the Armed Forces in national development has been added to our duties. We have been fulfilling this last mission faithfully and effectively and it is an honor for the institution to be taken into account in order to carry out national development. However, we consider that it is necessary to refine the legal instruments that regulate and permit the Armed Forces to better carry out this task with more administrative, operative, and financial efficiency.\nThe Venezuelan people gave the Military a clear duty in Article 328 of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. There the Venezuelan people gave us, speaking in military terms, an objective that can be translated as guaranteeing the independence and sovereignty of the nation, and assuring the integrity of the geographic space. The Venezuelan people also told the members of our Armed Forces how through the exercise of three fundamental missions: military defense, cooperation in maintaining internal order and active participation in national development are the three missions that must be in perfect equilibrium. And for that, the people assigned us the custody of the weapons of the Republic to defend their interests and be administrators of legal and legitimate violence of the state. But more than administrators of violence we must be promote and maintain peace, and generate tranquility and provide a certain path toward the development of our country.\nI share with you the words of the good Pope, the Saint, Pope John Paul II, the guarantor, the pilgrim of peace, of happy and unforgettable memory. I quote. \u201cIn a climate of agreement and respect for justice, an authentic culture of peace can mature, capable of extending to the international community and navigating the pages of Vatican Council, finding us en the Gaudium Ex espezz, happiness and hope.\u201d I quote, \u201cPeace is not the mere absence of war, nor can it be reduced to the simple equilibrium of adverse force, but rather it is the fruit of order rooted in the human society by its divine founder, and men desirous of a perfect justice will have to carry it out.\u201d\nThe National Armed Forces must be an instrument of power for political democracy, peace and development, whose actions are framed in the challenge that the national will demand and leadership with a view towards to the vindication of the institutions and procedures in benefit of the national collective. At this point begins a time of reflection for this humble soldier of the Parachute Infantry.\nAnd in finishing I want to share with my fellow soldiers, and knowing my admiration for the eastern cultures, some precepts of the Code of Buddhism. These are the seven principles that govern the Code of Buddhism, the moral guide of the majority of samurais: be faithful to him and your honor will grow. Break it and your name with be insulted by future generations.\nFirst principle: GI, Honor and Justice. Be honorable in dealings with everyone, believe in justice.\nSecond principle: YU, Heroic Value. Rise up among the people that are afraid to act. Hide yourself like a turtle in its shell is to not live. Heroic courage is not blind, it is intelligent and strong. It replaces fear for respect and precaution.\nThird principle: JIN, Compassion. Develop a power that must be used for the good of everyone. Help your peers in everything. If the opportunity does not emerge, go out of your way to find it.\nFourth principle: RIE. Courtesy. A samurai is courteous even with his adversaries. He receives respect not only by the force of action, but also by his manner of dealing with others. The authentic interior force of the samurai becomes evident in times of haste.\nFifth principle: MEYO. Honor. The decisions that you make and how you carry them are a reflection of who you are in reality. You cannot hide from yourself.\nSixth principle: MAKOTO. Absolute Sincerity. When a samurai says that he will do something, it is as if he has already done it. Simply by saying it he has put in march the act of doing it. Speaking and doing are the same action.\nSeventh principle: CHUGO. Duty and Loyalty. The words of a man are like his fingerprints; you can follow him wherever he goes.\nMay Yahweh, the supreme creator of everything, bless and guard forever the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.\nLadies and gentlemen, infinite thanks.\nTranslated by Chris Carlson\nThis work is licensed under a Attribution Non-commercial No Derivatives Creative Commons license",

        "title": "4 Women Reveal the Joys and Struggles of Their Instagram-Worthy, Work-from-Anywhere Lives - Verily",
        "raw_content": "4 Women Reveal the Joys and Struggles of Their Instagram-Worthy, Work-from-Anywhere Lives\nMore and more women are rejecting the standard 9-to-5 office job in favor of a flexible work-from-wherever career path.\nTraveling the world to photograph flowers, working in your favorite caf\u00e9 when you\u2019re craving a very specific slice of carrot cake, writing about dream destinations for Vogue, developing recipes in your English country cottage kitchen\u2014it may be the stuff of Instagram fairy tales, but it\u2019s also the reality for more and more working women today.\nFlexible and remote working opportunities have been steadily increasing over the past few years; according to Global Workplace Analytics, the number of employees who regularly work from home in the USA \u201chas grown by 115 percent since 2005, nearly 10x faster than the rest of the workforce.\u201d Last year Forbes reported that freelancers now make up 35 percent of the US workforce. And, as Marina Olson wrote for Verily back in 2014, it\u2019s a particularly female version of the American dream that has been evolving in recent years, with women pursuing online entrepreneurship in record numbers. And it&apos;s not just in the West; by connecting them via technology, more women in the Middle East and Asia are working from anywhere, too.\nWe talked to four women to hear the real stories behind their beautiful, work-from-anywhere careers. Whether they run their own businesses, work as freelancers, or work from home on part-time flexible contracts, the joy and pride that they all take in creating work and lives they truly love is evident\u2014but not without its challenges. Read on for some inspiration, along with a healthy dose of reality.\nIt Doesn\u2019t Have to Be All or Nothing . . .\nLindsay Radcliffe is a writer, photographer, and content creator who lives and works from her cottage in the English countryside. She spends much of her time developing recipes and photographing food. It wasn\u2019t as simple as setting up her own food blog and diving in as a freelancer when she moved out of London, though. \u201cI&apos;ve been doing this part-time for about 12 months, along with working for a beautiful events and exhibition house and garden in the local area,\u201d she explains. Many women like Lindsay mix and match their freelance work with other part time contract work they love, which provides them with a mix of security and independence.\nJo Rodgers is achieving a similar balance as a journalist, living and working from home in London. She works as a Contributing Writer for Vogue, and is writing her first novel (which, when you read her evocative and playful Instagram captions, you will eagerly await). After working in the book publishing industry for most of her twenties, first as an editor and then as a literary agent, she began writing herself about two years ago.\n. . . but Sometimes It Is\nAfter entrepreneur Rebecca McCandler and her husband were laid off just a month before their wedding, the couple set up several businesses that they now run together. She explains, \u201cit quickly went from \u2018this could be a good business\u2019 to \u2018we need to make this a successful business.\u2019\u201d\nThe first business, Bears & Butterflies, is a bell tent rental company that provides accommodation for guests at special events; they first spotted a gap in the market when they were planning their own wedding. Rebecca\u2019s husband, Brook, is a trained cameraman and film editor, so they also run McCandler Films, a video production company that specializes in films for small businesses, as well as Delightful Devon, which highlights the best that their local area has to offer.\nGeorgianna Lane is a best-selling author and photographer; she released two books, Paris in Bloom and Vintage Roses this past year, and is currently working on several more. She is also the founder of Garden Photo World, a specialist horticultural stock photo library, and has two online shops selling fine art prints, books and stationery items; her work has appeared internationally in books, magazines, stationary, and home decor. Her life sounds as dreamy as the flowers and locations that she photographs: \u201cI am fortunate to travel extensively photographing flowers, gardens and iconic travel destinations. My days are mostly spent in parks and flower farms, on the streets of beautiful cities, or in my studio,\u201d she says.\nGeorgianna didn\u2019t get there without being relentlessly passionate about her niche. Her advice to anyone wishing to pursue a career like hers? \u201cBe fully committed to becoming the very best in your field. To be successful, you need to stand out and become known for exceptional products and service, so I recommend investing in the training and practice required to produce superlative work, whether it\u2019s photography, painting, design or providing a service. Never stop learning and improving your craft.\u201d\nOne of the most appealing things about working from home is that you are able to work more or less from anywhere you like, and design your own days. But what does this actually look like from the inside? \u201cNo one day is the same,\u201d Lindsay shares, \u201cbut ideally I like to start off with an early morning dog walk, followed by a big cup of coffee while I catch up on emails and admin. The rest of the day could involve a shoot, recipe developing, or a visit to a local producer or entrepreneur.\u201d\nJo generally works from her desk at home, unless she hits writer\u2019s block, in which case a change of scenes (usually to the stacks in the London Library or a caf\u00e9) helps. \u201cOn my most productive days, I\u2019m normally up between 5 and 6 o\u2019clock. I get in the bath and listen to the news on the radio. Typically I write in the early morning, break around 10 for some toast, write, break for a late lunch and a walk, and do logistical work (emails, invoices, scheduling) in the afternoon,\u201d she says. Though, admittedly working from home means that \u201cThings go awry all the time. Meetings, travel, and oven repairmen need attention. And then there\u2019s the plain necessity for discipline, even if you have a golden, uninterrupted day ahead of you. Today I stopped writing to watch a video of a prairie dog eating a piece of cheese. And then to respond to some texts from my mother about the butternut squash in her garden (mildew!), and so on.\u201d\nJo is thoughtful about isolation: \u201cI think most writers enjoy working alone, and that can be a danger. It\u2019s easy to justify putting your head down, and forget to be an engaged friend and member of the community. I have these lurid purple pineapple socks. They\u2019re too terrible to wear outside, so when my husband sees me yanking them on in the morning, his eyebrows shoot up knowingly. And the eyebrows are right. What I\u2019m saying is, I try not to reach for the pineapple socks too often.\u201d\nAs Georgiana says, \u201cDiscipline is key if you want to be your own boss, both to keep yourself motivated to get the vital work done, and to allow yourself breathing space and some time of quiet reflection. Take a walk, see a good movie, walk through a garden, spend time with friends and family. Getting distance on your immediate work refreshes and gives clarity for creative ideas and problem solving. It\u2019s really not just nice to do\u2014it\u2019s vital.\u201d\nAnother, perhaps more unexpected, struggle is with other people\u2019s expectations: \u201cBe prepared for a lot of \u2018Oh, how interesting\u2019 said in a tone that implies you\u2019ve made a terrible decision,\u201d Rebecca says.\nWhile it may still be harder to explain this kind of working life to others than a more traditional job\u2014and it certainly isn&apos;t always as effortlessly beautiful as it looks\u2014these opportunities for women are most definitely on the rise. And for those of us craving more freedom and flexibility in our lives, that&apos;s a beautiful thing.\nPhoto Credit: Elissa Voss Photography\nCreativityCareerwork from homeFreelanceProfessional DevelopmentWorking WomenWomen In The WorkplaceReal Women\nWomen Share 4 Times Rejection Was the Greatest Thing That Happened to Their Careers\nTake notes from these female powerhouses on how to move on when you didn\u2019t get the job.\nThis is Why Sexual Harassment at Work is Still Alive and Well\nIn a Mad Men\u2013esque society where women are still unclear about what \u2018counts\u2019 as harassment or are too reluctant to report it, here\u2019s what to do.\n4 Ways to Be Assertive Without Being (Perceived as) Mean\nBeing assertive doesn\u2019t always mean what we think it does.",

        "raw_content": "/ Home / Press office / Author highlights how writing helped him overcome depression\nAuthor highlights how writing helped him overcome depression\nMatt Haig turned to writing as a form of therapy in his battle to beat depression, since publishing novels and a memoir, Reasons to Stay Alive\nBestselling author Matt Haig will tell audiences how writing helped him win his battle with depression when he comes to the 2015 Plymouth International Book Festival.\nAfter becoming ill in his early 20s, Matt turned to writing as a form of therapy using it to convey feelings and emotions that he was not always able to articulate verbally.\nNow he has published a number of adult and children\u2019s novels, and recently completed a memoir about his life and experiences, titled Reasons to Stay Alive.\nThat will be the focus of his talk in Plymouth on Saturday 17 October, when Matt will be in conversation with the CEO of Plymouth Mind, Sharon Claridge.\n\u201cI had always had a passion for books and reading, but had no real plans for it to be a part of my future until I became depressed. I knew I needed to do something but as with lots of illnesses, the idea of going out to a regular 9-5 would have been quite impossible as I had agoraphobia and separation anxiety. So I needed to do something from home, and began to earn money from writing. Initially, it was for newspapers and it was around five or six years later that I decided to write my first novel.\u201d\nThat first book was The Last Family in England in 2004, and since then there have also been The Dead Fathers Club, The Possession of Mr Cave, The Radleys and The Humans. He has also written a number of children\u2019s books, Shadow Forest, The Runaway Troll, To Be A Cat and Echo Boy.\nBut he describes Reasons to Stay Alive as the easiest to write of all his books so far, and it has earned rave reviews from \u2013 among others \u2013 Stephen Fry, Simon Mayo, Ian Rankin, Jo Brand, Michael Palin and Joanna Lumley.\n\u201cIt had been so long in my head and was a subject I knew better than anything in the world. By the time I was ready to do it, it was all there. Everyone assumes it would be hard to relive it, but there was a sense of distance and it almost felt like I was writing about someone else.\n\u201cBut the response has been amazing and at events, it is a subject that people are prepared to talk about and want to talk about. With every event I have done, there have been people willing to share their own experiences \u2013 it can be emotional but tends to be positive for everyone involved.\u201d\nThe 2015 Plymouth International Book Festival runs from Thursday 15 October to Wednesday 21 October. Other headline acts include bestselling authors Judy Finnigan and Simon Scarrow, writer and musician John Hegley, Thurston Moore, co-founder of experimental rock band Sonic Youth, actress and comedienne Helen Lederer, asylum broadcaster and campaigner Bidisha, and whisky connoisseur Ian Buxton.\nSharon Claridge said the timing of Matt Haig\u2019s talk was particularly appropriate, coming soon after World Mental Health Day on October 10. She added:\n\u201cCreativity and talking are often the keystone, not only to recovery from mental health issues but also to maintaining mental wellbeing for many people. I hope this session, as well as being an opportunity to meet and find out more about Matt and his writing, will also provide the opportunity for the audience to understand more about mental illness and wellbeing and realise that having a mental health issue does not mean giving up on life. There is nothing more powerful than hearing this from the individual themselves.\u201d\nMatt will be speaking in The House at Plymouth University on Saturday 17 October from 3pm, and tickets (priced \u00a36, \u00a34 concessions) are available from the box office on 01752 585050 or at https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/your-university/peninsula-arts/reasons-to-stay-alive.\nThe Plymouth International Book Festival is back once again, bringing words and books to life across Plymouth. Organised through a partnership of Plymouth University, Peninsula Arts, Literature Works (the literature development agency for the South West) and Plymouth City Council, it will unite local and global authors in a celebration of writing and reading for everyone to enjoy.\nThis 2015 programme includes exciting, new novels from bestselling authors Simon Scarrow and Judy Finnigan, stimulating non-fiction from Bidisha, spoken word from the always entertaining John Hegley, and a Writing For Radio workshop from the multi-talented Paul Dodgson and Edson Burton.\nAlso this year, we not only have some of the greatest literary talents of our time, but an opportunity to meet before or after events and mull over your literary passions and experiences. You'll be able to relax in our 1950s-style caf\u00e9, Chez Paulette, and for the first time, we have events programmed in The House \u2013 Plymouth University\u2019s performing arts building.\nWhile the majority of the festival events will take place at Plymouth University, a number of city organisations are also putting on related literary events. These include the Counter \u2013 Artists\u2019 Book Fair at Karst, a book binding and illustration workshop at Plymouth College of Art, reading events for young people provided by Plymouth Library Services, the Flash Fiction Slam at The Athenaeum and other book events at PCQ Arts and Flameworks.\nWe would like to thank Arts Council England for once again supporting the festival, The Duke of Cornwall Hotel for looking after our writers and Waterstones for providing the festival bookshop.\nView the Plymouth International Book Festival 2015 Brochure\nAuthors who took part in the Plymouth International Book Festival in 2015\nEvery year the festival attracts a wealth of talent from across the literary world.

        "raw_content": "Kata Golda\u2019s Hand-Stitched Felt and Other Helping Hands\nI went to the Kata Golda author event at Powell\u2019s last Sunday. There had been a buzz in the blogosphere about her book, Kata Golda\u2019s Hand-Stitched Felt. I got swept up too and had picked up a copy in advance. Henrik was unusually upset about me heading out that afternoon. I showed him the finger puppets on the cover of the book and told him that I was going to learn how to make them. I hoped Kata had the same idea.\nI left a little later than I had hoped, but I encountered no traffic and rolled up to Powell\u2019s early. There was no parking in the Powell\u2019s block, but I saw some car doors closing in the next block and pulled up in position. Then the doors opened again. Two men leaned out of either side of the car to spit. I wondered if they were actually preparing to leave or just settling in. The driver saw me waiting. He again opened his door, got out, raised his arm in the air and then stuck something white a nearby tree.\nI realized that it must be his window parking sticker. I gave a \u201cthank you\u201d wave and he pulled out. I parked and retrieved the sticker. It only had about five minutes left on the ticket, but I appreciated the effort. I grabbed my bag and headed for the ticket dispenser. I inserted my debit card and navigated through the system. My card was declined. I knew my account was running low, but not that low. I tried again, no luck. I moved on to my credit card. At this point a man walked up to me, reached out his arm and asked if I needed change.\nI was so flustered I had no idea what to say. I didn\u2019t understand why the machine was now rejecting my credit card and why a stranger was offering me money. I politely declined the offer. There are typically so many panhandlers in that neighborhood. I felt undeserving of spare change for the meter when there were probably people within the block who could use the money for food. As I continued to struggle with the machine the man reached out and offered the coins again. I thanked him and again declined the change. I finally gave up on plastic and searched for quarters in the car. I paid the machine and headed to Powell\u2019s. I was now running late.\nLuckily, Powell\u2019s was running late also. Kata began her presentation by stating that she wanted to tell us \u201chow to make a business out of what you love\u201d. Her journey to the present day had been filled with many tangents that had led her closer to her current success. The pathway had not been well marked along the way, but was only visible when looked back upon. It wasn\u2019t a road map that could be followed by another in order to reach the same goal.\nIt was inspiring to learn of a successful crafter who did not graduate from art school. Kata started art school, but found it too restrictive and did not continue. As I envision the birth of my own craft business I often question my future success knowing that my creativity has not been properly blessed by a formal institution. For Kata, her successful business had evolved organically from the summation of her collected creative experiences. Kata loved her work, which had emerged through a new medium, working with felt, and a new approach, improvisational stitching by hand. As I headed home I felt peaceful knowing that two strangers had held out their hands to me offering help and a third had reminded me that sometimes the journey toward reaching a goal involves many side roads.\nI also brought this little mouse home for Henrik.\nIt started out looking like this,\nwhich was much more than a sum of these parts. Thanks, Kata!\nThis entry was posted in Create, Embroidery, Felt, Gratitude, Learn, Read. Bookmark the permalink.",

Fess was so down-and-out at one point in his long career that he was reduced to sweeping the floors in a record shop. However, a booking at the fledgling 1971 Jazz & Heritage Festival put him on the comeback trail and that marvelous comeback testifies to the resiliency of this legend. His performances featured a Latin-tinged, rhumba-rocking piano style and croaking, yodeling vocals. He made a slew of albums in the last decade of his life, topped off by a terrific set for Alligator, Crawfish Fiesta. His most well-known songs were \u201cBig Chief\u201d and \u201cTipitina\u201d. A testament to his popularity in New Orleans is the local music club named after him: Tipitina\u2019s. He played there regularly when he wasn't on the road and it remains an immensely popular club. \u201cThe Gospel According to New Orleans\u201d ,my collection of iconic New Orleans Musicians, commemorates their role in the evolution of the eccentric culture and music traditions of New Orleans.

        "title": "Claiming a New Paradigm in Leadership | Women For One",
        "raw_content": "Claiming a New Paradigm in Leadership\nTo create a new Paradigm in leadership, we must be the trailblazers.\n\u201cI\u2019m not ready to lead\u2014I\u2019m not a leader.\u201d\nIt\u2019s one of the most common refrains I hear from women. I\u2019ve been that woman, too.\n\u201cI\u2019m the quiet one. The one behind the scenes. I lead by example, not by leading a movement.\u201d\nAs a leadership coach who primarily works with high-performing women both in the corporate world and with entrepreneurs, the notion to shrink behind our conditioning and stories is more prevalent than you might even realize. Sure, we hear it in ourselves, our friends, our loved ones. But even some of the most distinguished leaders I have had the joy of working with still have that fear.\nThe idea that \u201cI am not a leader.\u201d\nAnd guess what? It\u2019s not our fault.\nWe\u2019re conditioned by the media\u2013-movies, television, advertising, presidential campaigns, news outlets, you name it. Each post we\u2019ve seen, each TV episode we\u2019ve watched, every movie we\u2019ve ingested, has conditioned us (men too, but especially women) to believe that a man in a suit at a podium is what a leader looks like. A phenomenon I like to call MOPP, or the Man on Podium Paradigm. It\u2019s the reason why someone like our current president gets elected. Because a MOPP beats a woman any day, any time.\nA MOPP is a manufactured authority. A MOPP wears and possesses clear triggers that allow anyone who grew up in the United States (and much of the world, to be honest) to recognize said MOPP as a leader.\nJust take a (generally white) man, a suit, and a bone to pick\u2014and that is what leadership looks like. It is how we\u2019ve been conditioned to experience leadership, both with fictional leaders and real leaders alike. They almost never win on merit, and frequently, their merit is lacking in many areas.\nBecause of all this, we\u2019ve been taught that to lead as a woman, we have to emulate that version of leadership. We, too, must don the ever-beloved pantsuit, modulate our voice, and lead with authority. Because authority and masculinity have somehow been collapsed into one another. They are utterly and completely synonymous.\nWe\u2019ve been sold the idea that a leader who happens to be a woman doesn\u2019t wear dresses and makeup. She isn\u2019t demure. She must command space, but not too much. Be pretty, but not too pretty. Shrewd but not shrill, because heaven forbid! A woman in leadership should never be shrill. (Except most women in leadership are considered shrill or labeled as such at one point or another.)\nAnd that is where the fear comes in. To step into the spotlight and claim your birthright as a leader requires you to put yourself under the microscope of society. To be filtered through the lens of the Man on Podium Paradigm. And if you don\u2019t match it? You must prepare to be ridiculed. And if you do match it? You must still prepare to be ridiculed.\nBut what if we decided, as the new culture of humans on this earth, that we could all be leaders? That the Man on Podium Paradigm doesn\u2019t have to define us? That we can stand up loudly and speak against injustice, build businesses based on love, and lead from our hearts rather than the misconstrued pain of the world?\nTo trail-blaze, to be the loud one, requires such a seemingly infinite well of courage. But women have courage in spades, and we\u2019ve all (men and women) weathered the MOPP long enough. And now is our time to rise.\n1. Command and Own Space\nThis is a hard one, I admit. As a very tall woman, I have been taught to shrink myself my entire life. I have been told that the space I occupy isn\u2019t valid\u2013-I\u2019ve been told this by partners, employers, and the clothing that didn\u2019t exist to fit my frame until the past few years. But it is crucial.\nWe must own the space we occupy, and command it. This means that when we walk on the streets, we don\u2019t let people bump us out of the way. When we post articles that get trolled, we don\u2019t shrink. When we feel in danger because of the space we occupy? We find other people to stand by us\u2014be our signal booster, be another body to occupy space.\nBeyond being a support to one another, we must also actively support others, especially those whose voices are not viewed as equal. If you are a man, amplify a woman\u2019s voice. If you are a white woman, amplify the voices of women of color. If you\u2019re straight, stand up for someone who is queer. We must find the structures of support so we can adequately build and develop capacity with each other.\n3. Find YOUR Paradigm of Leadership\nIf we know that the MOPP is based on cultivated authority that has been crafted for years, we must begin to cultivate our own vision of leadership. We must be the leaders we want our daughters to adore, and we must find our own way of being in the world. And we must be the change, so to speak. And to do so in our own ways.\nLeadership means taking up space. Leadership means being a system of support. Leadership means being yourself.\nSo, if the MOPP\u2019s time has come. what CAN a leader look like?\nA leader looks like YOU. And me. And yes, you, the one reading this. And a leader stands up when the chips are against us, so each of us must claim what we are called to lead. Because together, we can and must rise.\nLeadership isn\u2019t simply being a thought leader, or leading a movement. Sure, that is one way we see leadership manifest in the world. But leadership comes in many shapes and sizes. There\u2019s personal leadership, community leadership, movement leadership, and organizational leadership.\nIf you\u2019re a leader seeking greater capacity to lead\u2014personally or professionally\u2014I offer ongoing leadership coaching in the Integral Coaching method. My program, Integrate, allows leaders to identify their current way of being as a leader, and develop a new way of being.\nWhat are you longing to lead? Are you ready to expand that capacity?\nIntegrate is for you if you\u2019re looking to radically expand your capacity to lead effectively in organizations, your own business, your community, or your life.\n0 comments to \"Claiming a New Paradigm in Leadership\"",

The slate also includes for the Board of Selectmen incumbents Joe Dey and Dave Lober and new to the board, Dwight Rowland.\nFor the Amity Board of Education, they put forward Matt Schwartz and Jonathan Arpaia; for the Woodbridge Board of Education Lynn Piascyk and Jeff Hughes and, for a two-year term, Dan Cowan.\nCindy Gibbons and Bob Wiznia are running for the Zoning Board of Appeals; Vinnie Carrano and Frank Ciarleglio for Zoning Appeals alternate.\nChuck Pyne is running for the Board of Assessment Appeals.\nThe message they want to emphasize is that this is an election on local issues, not national ones, said Chuck Pyne at the caucus on January 15. \u201cThis is not DC. This is Woodbridge. There are things that can be improved and that will be improved,\u201d if people vote for their candidates.\nEd Weinberg currently serves on the Zoning Board of Appeals. This is his bio from the 2015 election cycle: Ed Weinberg moved from New Haven to Woodbridge with his wife, Jackie, and son, Jeremy, in July of 2013. They chose Woodbridge because it reminded Ed of the small town, Hastings-on-Hudson, where he grew up. Woodbridge is a little more rural, but has about the same population. Ed has a BS in Electrical Engineering, and currently owns Edergy LLC, a sales and marketing company. Ed has been involved with the founding and management of several other businesses, and is a past member of the Rotary Club, the Northwest Connecticut Chamber of Commerce, and Business Network International (BNI).\nAs a business owner and resident, Ed understand the needs of local businesses, and believes they are important to Woodbridge while understanding the value in blending business and residential areas for the benefit of all.\nWoodbridge GOP announced its slate of candidates at the January 15 caucus.

        "raw_content": "worcester.ma (https://worcester.ma/2016/07/mass-democratic-operatives-to-play-key-roles-at-philadelphias-dnc-this-week/)\nMass. Democratic operatives to play key roles at Philadelphia\u2019s DNC this week\nBay State Democratic operatives will be working hard in Philadelphia this week, aiming for a flawless prime-time political show as the party nominates Hillary Clinton for president.\nStephen Kerrigan, CEO of the Democratic National Convention in 2012 and lieutenant governor candidate in 2014, said the Bay State is a reservoir of behind-the-scenes political talent.\n\u201cMassachusetts exports two great things: Cranberries and political hacks,\u201d Kerrigan said in a phone interview last week. \u201cAnd I count myself among them, so maybe say \u2018operatives\u2019 instead of \u2018political hacks.\u2019 \u201d\nStephen Kerrigan, left, and state Sen. Eric Lesser are chief among the Massachusetts contingent at the DNC this week.\nThe writers room, where speeches are drafted, rewritten, fact-checked and \u201cshaved\u201d for time, is run by Jeff Nussbaum, who is from Weston, along with Kenneth Baer, according to Sen. Eric P. Lesser, a Longmeadow Democrat who worked in the DNC writer\u2019s room four years ago.\n\u201cYou\u2019re orchestrating and producing a live television show,\u201d Lesser said. He said even high-level elected officials lack experience giving speeches in front of such a massive audience, and the timing of each speech leading up to the main attraction is carefully tracked to ensure the convention stays on time.\nOnce a presidential candidate emerges as the presumptive nominee, as Clinton did this spring, the convention defers to that victorious campaign on big decisions, Kerrigan said.\nCharles Baker III, a Massachusetts Democrat and co-founder of Dewey Square Group, is the Clinton campaign\u2019s chief administrative officer, and Lesser said Baker \u2014 not to be confused with the state\u2019s Republican governor \u2014 is coordinating operations at the convention for Clinton.\nAndrew Binns, who Kerrigan said is from Dorchester and was chief information officer four years ago at the Charlotte, North Carolina, convention, has been named chief innovation officer for the convention in Philadelphia.\nA former staffer to the late U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy who attended his first convention more than 20 years ago, Kerrigan said technological advancements are the biggest change on the operations side from convention to convention.\n\u201cThe app store had launched a week before the Denver convention\u201d when President Barack Obama was first nominated, Kerrigan said. He said this year\u2019s DNC app will probably have a broader reach than the more \u201cutilitarian\u201d app the party had four years ago, which was designed for attendees.\nThe DNC is in Philadelphia this week, and the Bay State will be well represented.\nOther staffers from Massachusetts \u2014 anonymous and invisible to the millions who will tune in to coverage of the event \u2014 work in \u201cpodium operations,\u201d which includes a variety of backstage responsibilities to keep the program running smoothly, and \u201cspeaker tracking\u201d (tending to the needs of the officials who will take the stage), Kerrigan said.\nKerrigan, who will be helping Clinton\u2019s \u201cwhip\u201d operation as liaison from the campaign to delegates, watched the Republican National Convention, where Donald Trump accepted his party\u2019s nomination Thursday night, with an eye for the craft.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very typical for Donald Trump and very different for conventions,\u201d Kerrigan said.\nPlanners need to \u201cmaximize\u201d their time on television as the networks follow rules that require equal time for each party\u2019s convention, Kerrigan said. He expects \u201cenhanced coverage\u201d of the Democratic National Convention because of events running long in Cleveland where Republicans met this week.\nThis year puts Democrats in a position unique for the party in the modern era with a sitting president and vice president, neither of whom is running for the office. Kerrigan said the number of top officials who will need speaking time this year will create a time-crunch, and he wondered whether coveted slots, such as convention chair and \u201ckeynote\u201d speaker, will be filled at all.\nThe president, vice president, first lady and the nominee\u2019s spouse, himself a former president known for lengthy addresses, are all slated to speak.\n\u201cYou have a lot more pressure on prime time than we\u2019ve ever had before,\u201d said Kerrigan.\nAt the RNC, House Speaker Paul Ryan was the chairman of the convention. Kerrigan said it is possible that Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, could chair the convention, too.\n\u201cThere\u2019s no requirement that you have a chair or a keynote speech,\u201d Kerrigan said. He said, \u201cIt keeps us from having another principal.\u201d\nObama had the keynote address in 2004 and Bill Clinton had it in 1988. In 2012, the keynote went to Julian Castro, who was then mayor of San Antonio, Texas, and is now Obama\u2019s secretary of Housing and Urban Development.\n\u201cIt used to be like that was the place that the big up-and-comer would speak from,\u201d Kerrigan said.\nThe CEO of this year\u2019s convention is Rev. Leah Daughtry, who was CEO of the DNC in 2008.\nKerrigan said the longtime producer of the convention is Ricky Kirshner, who has also produced the Tony Awards and the Super Bowl halftime show.\nWhile those in the writers room draft and check the speeches officials give on the floor, some go off script. In 2012, then-Congressman Barney Frank dispatched with his prepared remarks.\n\u201cI have the problem we all have when we speak here: There are a lot of issues to talk about, so the question is which ones do you pick,\u201d Frank said on the convention stage.\n\u201cIt was not what had been prepared,\u201d said Kerrigan, who allowed that \u201csometimes off the cuff can be better.\u201d\nFormer President Bill Clinton also strayed far from his written text and allotted time four years ago, issuing a lengthy criticism of Republican positions. Kerrigan recalled that convention staff received Clinton\u2019s speech about 20 minutes before he went on stage.\n\u201cEveryone was kinda sweating bullets about that,\u201d Lesser recalled. \u201cEveryone calmed down when we saw how great it was.\u201d\nDonald Trump\u2019s convention last week was anything but typical.\nVarious unexpected news stories emerged from Cleveland, giving the RNC a spontaneous feel conducive to live television. Melania Trump, the candidate\u2019s wife, read plagiarized portions of a speech First Lady Michelle Obama gave eight years ago. Runner-up U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz was booed by the convention audience after declining to endorse Trump and urging voters instead to \u201cvote your conscience.\u201d\n\u201cThe moment it begins to the moment it ends there\u2019s potential for there to be a problem,\u201d Kerrigan said. \u201cIt\u2019s how you react to them and how you respond.\u201d\nLesser, who was special assistant to Obama\u2019s former senior advisor David Axelrod before running for Senate, declined to identify any speech he worked on that gave him particular pride.\n\u201cThe first rule of a speechwriter is that the words aren\u2019t yours,\u201d Lesser said.\nOn Beacon Hill: Worcester-based gun rights leader has harsh words for Healey \u2018copycat\u2019 ban",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab The Perfect Writer\u2019s Desk\nBrand Your Writing Career with an Autoresponder \u00bb\nInterview with Jack Hart, Author of The Writer\u2019s Coach\nPublished May 14, 2007\tSusan W. Clark , The View 1 Comment\nInterview by Susan W. Clark\nThere is a rich new resource between the covers of The Writer\u2019s Coach (Pantheon, 2006). This book was a delight to read, satisfying my hunger for skill-polishing knowledge. Author Jack Hart starts with how to organize the writing process, finishes with options for writerly career development, and sandwiches between these a wealth of grammar and word-use lessons spiced with real-life stories and examples.\nI first heard Hart speak at two book promotion events. Then I read his book and decided I\u2019d like to interview him because I had a serious case of I-want-my-own-writing-coach envy. Hart is a managing editor and writing coach at The Oregonian, where he has helped to establish a learning culture so attractive that writers from big Eastern papers have moved here. Maybe they were hoping to join The Oregonian\u2019s four Pulitzer Prize winners.\nHart became an editor when he was tapped to serve as Arts and Leisure editor not long after he came to The Oregonian. He said, \u201cI\u2019m an organized person,\u201d and explained with a chuckle that because organization is highly valued in editors, he was offered increasingly interesting editorial jobs. For Hart the best part was editing the Sunday magazine, which included working with many freelance writers.\nHart said that the concept of \u201cwriting coach\u201d emerged when a group of editors were sitting around talking at a Hawaii meeting of the American Society of Newspaper Editors (ASNE). Someone noted that words were their product and maybe they could do something to improve the writing they sold. It was a time of change, back when the advent of computers was requiring lots of staff training. The group agreed and a national movement was launched. It included the creation of the ASNE Awards that Hart describes as the most prestigious in the newspaper world, and it led to Hart becoming the writing coach at The Oregonian in 1988.\nHart\u2019s approach to coaching \u201chelps you do your best work.\u201d His background gave him a blue-ribbon preparation for improving journalistic skills, including a PhD in Mass Communication and experience teaching writing full-time at several universities. He said, \u201cI\u2019ve been very lucky. I\u2019ve been in the perfect situation to find out what helps writers produce good writing.\u201d Describing the early coaching at The Oregonian, Hart said, \u201cWe brought in the best people we could find [to coach our journalists] about once a month for about three years. I was taking notes faster than anyone.\u201d\nAt The Oregonian, Hart often works with a writer and editor. \u201cToday I met with a writer and her editor, and the photographer even sat in.\u201d They talked about the article and the approach she might take. In addition to offering coaching on a specific article, Hart will take on a writer for several months to help him or her develop a new skill. He explained, \u201cWe have a learning culture here.\u201d\nAsked what he would emphasize as most important for WOTR readers, Hart says, \u201cI\u2019ve learned that your writing process is the most important, and if you want to change the way you write, you need to change that process. Then constantly expand your craft and you\u2019ll write well. A one-step-at-a-time approach to writing that includes good process takes a lot of the pain out of writing.\u201d Referring to a quote in the book, he said, \u201cYou don\u2019t have to sit and stare at the keyboard until drops of blood appear on your forehead.\u201d\nI plan to look for Hart\u2019s session at the National Writers Workshop that will be held in Portland on June 2-3. It is jointly hosted by The Oregonian and the Poynter Institute for Media Studies. The workshop hotline is 503-221-8144, or you can go to http://biz.oregonian.com/newsroom and click on National Writers Workshop.\n1 Response to \u201cInterview with Jack Hart, Author of The Writer\u2019s Coach\u201d\n1 Link: my latest review in Writers on the Rise \u00ab Writing for a Sustainable Future Trackback on May 17, 2007 at 8:55 pm",

He said there are other health related apps out there to help medically vulnerable populations, like the capacity to record when a person falls.\nHe also advises some patients to use mapping apps, so family members can watch their activity if they are out for a walk. The only piece of technology Silverman said isn\u2019t quite accurate are the ones that count calories, although they can be a good baseline.\nSilverman has been a cardiologist for almost 40 years. He said technology won\u2019t put him out of business, but can be a game changer for many patients.\n\u201cThe stethoscope is the most important part of my job, besides my ears or eyes,\u201d he said. \u201cBut even my stethoscope is electronic. Technology is taking off.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Chapter 32 \u2013 Catch the Genius #3\nCatch the Genius #3\nAfter eating the bulk of the artifacts, Theodore's next choice was to start reading.\nIt wasn't just about gaining enough magic power to reach the 4th Circle. As a 4th Circle magician, Theo needed to be able to use 4th Circle magic. He only had a short amount of time, so he had to select useful magic in advance and increase his understanding.\nVince, who still had plenty of time remaining until the magic contest, also joined in. As someone with a rich amount of experience as a war magician, he was able to give detailed information about the strategies which the magicians of the Blue Tower used.\nAfter looking at books for two hours...\nThe magic power in Theo's body suddenly boiled up. The last time his magic power had increased this much was when he had eaten 'Roaring Flames.' The flow of magic power emerged from the palm of his left hand and wrapped around Theodore's body, drawing the faint outline of a shape outside the three circles.\n'4th Circle...!'\nIt wasn't at the completed stage yet. The shape was there, but he needed more magic power to fill it up.\nHowever, even that was a great accomplishment compared to the days when the 3rd Circle had been far away. Theodore calmly scattered the remaining magic power throughout his body and opened his eyes once the 4th Circle outline finished. He certainly felt more magic power than before.\nVince recognized the magic power emerging from him and congratulated him, \"Congratulations. Now, you are a fellow magician and walking the same path as me. Don't forget this fact in the future, and I hope you will continue to devote yourself wholly.\"\n\"Yes, Professor,\" Theo replied in a trembling voice.\nThe 4th Circle was just the start of the magic path. The invention of the magic reagents meant that many people crossed the threshold of the 4th Circle. However, those who reached the 5th Circle were just a handful. Some blamed the limits of their talent and remained in the 4th Circle until they died, while others felt desperation and frustration at the existence of the 'wall' beyond the 5th Circle.\nIn fact, even those who were considered as the top magicians in the continent couldn't cross the wall of the 7th Circle. The tower masters, excluding the Blue Tower Master and Red Tower Master, were also stuck at the 7th Circle.\nThe 9th Circle, which was considered the apex of humanity, had already become a legend and myth for a long time.\nIn the truest sense, the 4th Circle Theodore had now stepped into was a desert where numerous pilgrims had died.\nThen Theo looked at the three Precious ranked artifacts remaining on the bed. They were similar in price to the West Wind's Protection, purchased for 144 gold at the first store. Each one had a great performance matching their price.\n[+7 Hawk's Skull (Armor)]\n[The helmet, made of steel and adamantium, is truly artistic and shaped like a hawk. The blacksmith, who created this helmet for a magician, added the ability for it to function like a real hawk. As a result, the 'Insight' magic is given to the wearer of the helmet. The person who wears this helmet will immediately acquire the Insight magic.\n* The rating of this helmet is 'Precious'.\n* When consumed, the digestion time is 1 hour and 32 minutes.\n* When consumed, the Capture magic formula will be acquired.\n* When worn, the skill 'Hawkeye' is applied.]\n[+8 Night Prowler's Mirage (Shoes)]\n[These are shoes made from luxurious leather with magic circles of mithril thread sewn on them. These are the reason why the thief Orwell hadn't gotten caught until the end. The guards had continued chasing the illusions Orwell left behind, and the secret had only been exposed after he'd been killed at a gambling place. The wearer of these shoes can create a lifelike illusion of themselves.\n* The rating of these shoes is 'Precious'.\n* When consumed, the Illusion magic formula will be acquired.\n* When worn, the skill 'Illusion Track' is available.]\n'Hawk's Skull' had been worn by a famous mercenary leader, and 'Night Prowler's Mirage' was the symbol of the legendary thief Orwell. They were too expensive and rare to be used as artifacts to gain magic power. If the craftsmen were here, they might've tried to break Theodore's neck.\nTo the hesitant Theo, Vince said, \"Don't hesitate.\"\n\"Use whatever means possible for the full preparation. Once you have made up your mind, don't stop. I will take on all the costs, so you don't have to be sorry.\"\nThe last of Theo's hesitation went away at Vince's words.\nIt was correct that he should use all means possible. According to the guesses of the two people, 'Precious' grade artifacts wouldn't end with just increasing magic power. After eating 'Roaring Flames', he'd been able to acquire two abilities as well as magic power.\nArtifacts couldn't be used in the Pupil Tournament. However, there was no rule prohibiting the use of a grimoire. Therefore, it was possible for Theo to use the function of the grimoire, not that anyone would notice.\nThe grimoire was separate from artifacts, so there was no way to detect its existence. It was fine as long as Theo didn't reveal the tongue in his palm. In a sense, it might be cowardly, but it didn't break any of the stated rules.\nDespite being sick of war, Vince was still a war magician of the Red Tower. War magicians didn't care about the means and methods used to win. Similarly, Theodore had received Alfred's memories so he had no objection to it.\nIn the end, Theo moved his left hand towards the three artifacts worth around 500 gold.\nThe tongue was still unsatisfied and popped out like it had been waiting for the command. The gauntlets, helmet, and shoes were sucked in. This was the moment when the value of a mansion in Mana-vil was sucked into the stomach of the grimoire.\nAfter reaching the 4th Circle with Gluttony's abilities, Theo received special lessons from Vince for a few days.\nTheo had gained a fraction of Alfred's experience, but it was nothing compared to Vince's years on the battlefield. He searched through memories of the past and picked information which would help Theo.\n\"The biggest advantage of the water magic attribute is its versatility. Offense, defense, suppression... these applications aren't impossible when it comes to the water attribute. A skilled magician in the water attribute would be an annoying opponent.\"\nIf he thought about water, there was no other attribute which existed in such a variety of forms. The clouds floating in the sky were water, and the river running through the ground was also water. The snow capped peaks were water, and so was the fog rising early in the morning.\nThe freedom to go between solids, liquids, and gas was the strength and essence of the water magic attribute.\n\"Are you saying there are no special weaknesses?\"\n\"Its attack is weaker than fire, its defense is lower than earth, and its speed is slower than the wind. The limitations of the water attribute is that it doesn't specialize in anything.\"\n\"...It is the medium in various aspects.\" Theo understood the meaning and nodded.\nIf so, there were some methods available to him. His earth-related defense magic had increased greatly due to the contract with Mitra, so he could block 4th Circle magic without much difficulty. He could also use the skill gained from 'Roaring Flames' to break through Sylvia's defense.\nWhile Theo thought for a while, Vince opened his mouth and said, \"This is just my guess but... you should avoid a close confrontation with Sylvia as much as possible.\"\n\"A close confrontation?\" Theo was confused by the unexpected words.\nHowever, Vince firmly nodded and explained, \"The Blue Tower Master. Do you remember the staff the old man was carrying? It is a crude and large wooden staff.\"\n\"Of course.\" It was rare to meet a person who gave off such a strong impression. If Blundell hadn't been wearing a robe, Theo would've thought he was a warrior. Blundell's terrifying appearance matched his staff.\n\"That staff was really big.\"\n\"It isn't a staff.\"\nTheo made a lost expression, causing Vince to shake his head with a sigh.\n\"It is good as a stick.\"\n\"He learned the eastern method of fighting with a stick as a hobby. The problem is that he reached the rank of a master with it.\"\nTheo's face turned pale as Vince added, \"He broke the heads of a few knights with it on the battlefield.\"\nSylvia was carrying a similar staff to her master. He would rather be hit by a Fireball than a rough staff wielded by a pretty girl.\n\"Don't narrow the distance if possible. That is my advice.\"\n\"Ah, I understand.\"\nThe two people took a break for a while before the discussion continued again.\nFortunately, Vince was a good mentor, and Theo was an excellent disciple. Vince explained the weaknesses of the Blue Tower Magicians, and the information came together in Theo's head with Alfred's experience.\nEven though one thing was taught, Theo would gain enlightenment in a further three things.\nAs the end of the Pupil Tournament approached, Vince rented out a practice room for a final check.\nIf Theodore's abilities didn't meet his standard, then he would oppose the match with Sylvia. He didn't want Theo to be ridiculed in front of everyone. However, he became sure of something. 'This much is enough to win!'\nVince didn't specialize in water magic, but he was still a Superior rank of the Red Tower and a war magician. He was a few times stronger than an Average of the Blue Tower, but Theo had stood up to him without backing down. Theo had even saved some of the functions of the grimoire.\nTheo, laying on the floor of the practice room with a weary expression, took deep breaths and looked up at Vince. \"Professor, did I pass?\"\nVince smiled and nodded. \"I'll give you a perfect score.\"",

        "raw_content": "Would-be cigarette smokers in the US state of Hawaii might have to wait a very long time for their first legal drag, after a lawmaker introduced a bill that would bar sales to anyone under the age of 100.\nThe proposed law, introduced by local Democratic representative Richard Creagan, would effectively amount to a cigarette ban by 2024.\nHawaii already has some of the toughest laws on cigarette sales but Creagan \u2014 an emergency room doctor \u2014 believes more needs to be done to ban \u201cthe deadliest artifact in human history,\u201d according to his proposed bill.\n\u201cBasically, we essentially have a group who are heavily addicted \u2014 in my view, enslaved by a ridiculously bad industry \u2014 which has enslaved them by designing a cigarette that is highly addictive, knowing that it highly lethal. And, it is,\u201d he told the Hawaii Tribune-Herald.\nUnder current law, you must be 21-years-old to purchase cigarettes in Hawaii. Nationwide, the minimum age is 18 or 19.\nCreagan\u2019s proposal calls for raising the cigarette-buying age to 30 by next year, 40 in 2021, 50 in 2022 and 60 in 2023. By 2024, the minimum age would be 100.\nHe said the bill is structured to withstand any legal challenge.\n\u201cThe state is obliged to protect the public\u2019s health,\u201d Creagan, who acknowledges smoking cigarettes during his medical studies, told the Hawaii Tribune-Herald.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t allow people free access to opioids, for instance, or any prescription drugs,\u201d he added.\n\u201cThis is more lethal, more dangerous than any prescription drug, and it is more addicting.\u201d\nAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, cigarette smoking is the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the United States, accounting for nearly half a million deaths every year.\nTags addiction Bill Cigarette drugs Hawaii law Smoking\n8.7% of Egyptians smoke shisha: Health Ministry official\nIn Canada, pot legalization poses health and safety challenges",

The attacker just ran at them with a knife. The teachers were dumbstruck,\" said Zhang Jing, who lives close to the school.\nAn unknown number of students were taken to a nearby hospital following the incident , according to police.\nVideo from the hospital showed adults wailing in grief as children covered in blood were rushed from ambulances into the building. In another video, a child whose head is wrapped in bandages was pushed past on a gurney, as crowds looked on.\nZhang said after the knife attack and recent scandals over faulty medicine for children , he's increasingly skeptical of the government's ability to look after his own daughter.\n\"It is terrifying. The vaccines are faulty, the food is faulty ... and right now even the security is problematic,\" he told CNN.\nThere is no information about a potential motive for the attack. Police are continuing to investigate.\nFriday's incident isn't the first time school children in China have been hurt by people wielding knives. Nine students were killed at a middle school in Shaanxi province in April by a 28-year-old man who was later sentenced to death.\nAccording to state media Xinhua, the killer had wanted to \"get revenge on his former classmates who had teased him\" and had bought the knives online.\nIn 2017, 11 students were injured after a man climbed over the wall of a kindergarten with a knife and began attacking them.",

        "title": "Court rules that government must get permission before giving detained immigrant children drugs",
        "raw_content": "Court rules that government must get permission before giving detained immigrant children drugs\nA federal court judge in California on Monday ordered the US government to make immediate changes to how it treats undocumented immigrant children it has placed in secure facilities.\nThe court's orders ranged from very specific demands, such as to get informed consent or a court order before giving children psychotropic medications at the Shiloh Treatment Center in Texas, to sweeping orders requiring the government to stop imposing conditions that have led to months of delays before it releases minors to parents or relatives.\nCNN previously reported on the wide-ranging abuses at Shiloh and other facilities described by children in sworn declaration in the case that led to Monday's order. These included cases of children being forcibly medicated, assaulted, and restrained for long periods of time, among other allegations.\nIn her ruling, US District Court Judge Dolly Gee agreed that the government had violated terms of a high-profile settlement, reached in 1997, that dictates how children are treated within the system run by the federal Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).\nShe ordered the government to transfer out of Shiloh all children except those a licensed psychiatrist or psychologist determines pose a danger to themselves or others.\n'Informed written consent' required before giving children drugs\nGee also ordered the government to get \"informed written consent\" from a parent, family member or sponsor, or a court order, before giving children at Shiloh psychotropic drugs. Shiloh staff had admitted signing the consent forms themselves before consistently drugging children, Gee noted in her ruling.\nUS Department of Justice declined to comment on the orders. Officials at Shiloh, who previously have referred questions to ORR, could not be reached for comment Monday. Shiloh's website includes a statement, predating the court order, that the center has been visited, audited or investigated by ORR, various Texas state agencies, and the consulates of Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador and that \"All of the widely distributed allegations about Shiloh were found to be without merit.\"\nORR did not immediately reply to requests for comment Monday. An ORR spokesperson previously said the agency can't comment on ongoing litigation. ORR officials have said that its shelters are run by organizations that meet state licensing standards and are staffed by people who are well-equipped to meet the needs of children in their care.\nRuling called a 'huge victory'\nHolly Cooper, co-director of the Immigration Law Clinic at the University of California, Davis, one of the groups suing the government over conditions in children's detention facilities, called Gee's ruling \"a huge victory.\"\nCooper said the judge's findings made it clear that ORR frequently has pushed children into higher-security facilities unnecessarily. These include staff-secure facilities, which have fenced perimeters and more staff than standard shelters; secure facilities, which are akin to juvenile correction centers; and residential treatment centers, which are secure residential facilities providing psychiatric care.\n\"Once a child is pushed up into a higher security facility, the actual conditions of confinement deteriorate significantly, and that can have a significant impact on a child's well-being,\" she said.\nCarlos Holguin, general counsel at the Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law, which participated in the suit, said the government was sending children to secure facilities who posed no danger to themselves or others.\n\"We will likely send in a team of independent psychiatrists and try to make our own determination of which kids are dangerous and which are not,\" Holguin said\nThe court on Monday also ordered the Office of Refugee Resettlement:\nTo give all minors sent to higher security facilities, including residential treatment centers, written notice in a language they can understand, \"within a reasonable time,\" of why they were placed there. Judge Gee said that the three or four months many youths went without being so informed \"amounts to a failure to provide written notice within a reasonable time.\"\nTo drop a blanket policy that had delayed the release of many children by months by requiring that sponsors line up a wide array of services, such as counseling, in advance, instead of organizing some of those services after release.\nTo place in less-restrictive settings minors who merely were believed to have been involved in gangs absent probable cause to believe they committed a specific crime.\nTo stop using security measures at Shiloh \"that are not necessary for the protection of minors or others\" such as denying them access to drinking water; and to let minors there have access to private phone calls.",

        "raw_content": "Pricing of 2017 Cadillac XT5 begins at $39,990, set to arrive in April\nAs it begins hitting up showrooms by April, the carmaker announced that the 2017 Cadillac XT5 base model bears a $39,990 sticker price. Compared to its predecessor, it is relatively more expensive by nearly $1,400. However, it is considerably cheaper than other popular luxury midsize crossovers.\nThe price difference between the XT5 and the SRX is quite overwhelming. The top-trim Platinum model with standard all-wheel-drive comes at $63,495 while the 2016 SRX is priced at $52,725 tops. Aside from the Platinum and the base model, the XT5 is also offered in other trims: Luxury and Premium.\nThe former starts at $45,890 while its SRX counterpart was priced at &44,635. The Premium model, on the other hand, starts at $53,890 and is more expensive by about $5,000 than the comparable SRX trim. Built on a new platform, the XT5 features an all-new 3.6-liter, V-6 engine that is said to be more powerful and fuel-efficient than the 3.6-liter engine of the outgoing SRX.\nOther key upgrades include the new twin-clutch system, a speedier touchscreen CUE infotainment system, and an eight-speed automatic transmission.\nThe base model of the XT5 costs $2,000 cheaper than the Audi Q5, $3,000 cheaper than the Lexus RX (the lineup's best seller), $12,000 cheaper than the Mercedes GLE350, and over $15,000 cheaper than the BMW X5 base model.\nHowever, the top-trim model of the XT5 is relatively more expensive than the top trim units of the RX, Q5, and GLE.\nCadillac President Johan de Nysschen's pricing strategy was to price introductory vehicles cheaper than German competitors, acknowledging that the brand is not established enough to compete dollar-for-dollar with the luxury vehicle giants.\nThis demonstrates a reversal of Cadillac's previous strategy of pricing new entries at the level of their German competitors, which was not effective as it turned off customers and dealers. Accordingly, dealers have started taking orders for the new XT5. The vehicle will be assembled at the Spring Hill plant of General Motors (GM) Company.\nNew 2017 Cadillac XT5 Crossover Arrives in April\nThe first-ever Cadillac XT5 will arrive in U.S. dealerships in early-April, continuing the brand\u2019s product-driven growth. XT5 enters the strongest category in the luxury automotive space, the midsize luxury crossover segment, where Cadillac set sales records in 2015.\n\u201cThe arrival of this sophisticated new crossover positions Cadillac well, as XT5 enters the most popular segment in the global luxury market,\u201d said Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen. \u201cIt\u2019s pivotal to our ongoing growth, which is why we\u2019ve developed XT5 from the inside out to provide customers more space, more technology, more luxury and more efficiency.\u201d\nThe XT5 is the first in a series of upcoming luxury crossovers carrying the \u201cXT\u201d designation, a key aspect of the brand\u2019s product-driven global growth plan.\nThe new luxury crossover joins Cadillac\u2019s lineup immediately following the new range-topping CT6 Sedan, as the brand enters a new phase of product growth. The XT5 is the next chapter in elevating the Cadillac brand: it is bold, distinctive and sophisticated with enhanced driving dynamics. This new crossover perfectly reflects Cadillac\u2019s positioning in the luxury automotive marketplace, de Nysschen said.\nThe first-ever 2017 Cadillac XT5 crossover will be available in four trim levels, including a range-topping Platinum model, a first for Cadillac in this segment. XT5 Platinum includes unique interior and exterior trim and materials and combines them with the highest technology features.\nCadillac XT5 offers seven exterior colors and seven distinct interior environments, and a broad range of luxury amenities and high-technology systems \u2013 including Cadillac\u2019s award-winning, industry-first Rear Camera Mirror system on Platinum models.\nXT5 pricing begins at $38,995*; the highest level XT5 Platinum is priced from $62,500*. All-wheel drive is optional on Luxury and Premium Luxury models, and is standard on Platinum.\nCustomers can place orders now with dealers and view additional product information at cadillac.com.\nIn the U.S. market, the 2017 Cadillac XT5 will be powered by the new 3.6-liter V6 engine which recently debuted on the ATS and CTS sport sedans and is featured on the all-new CT6 flagship model. With peak output of 310-horsepower and 270 lb.-ft. of torque, the new V6 uses variable valve timing for strong response and smooth power delivery, maintaining optimum efficiency regardless of power demand. This engine has been completely redesigned and features Active Fuel Management cylinder deactivation technology, which allows the engine to seamlessly and automatically switch to a fuel-saving 4-cylinder mode under low or moderate loads.\nA new 8-speed automatic transmission is standard for the XT5, which also debuts Electronic Precision Shift \u2013 the first electronically controlled transmission shifter application in a Cadillac. The XT5 also features Stop/Start technology, which automatically stops and starts the engine when the vehicle is at rest in traffic stops, saving fuel and reducing emissions, while contributing to the serene character and tranquil cabin environment expected of a Cadillac.\nAn optional new advanced \u201ctwin clutch\u201d all-wheel drive system continuously and automatically delivers excellent traction across a variety of conditions. Due to the twin clutch design, the AWD system is capable of transferring up to 100 percent of available torque to either the front or rear axle. Also, across the rear axle, the electronically controlled rear differential can direct up to 100 percent of available torque to either wheel laterally. This capability is designed for \u201csplit-coefficient\u201d surfaces, such as when there is more water, ice or snow on one side of the road surface than the other. The AWD system is driver-controlled, and includes a new \u201cdisconnect\u201d feature that disables the rear drive unit for improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.\nThe 2017 XT5 will be built at the Spring Hill, Tenn. assembly facility outside of Nashville.\n*Editor\u2019s note: Manufacturer\u2019s Suggested Retail Price excludes destination ($995), tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment.\nTopics: cadillac, cadillac xt5, price, crossover",

        "raw_content": "Free Genealogy \u00bb Windham County Connecticut Biographies \u00bb Biography of John A. Carpenter\nBiography of John A. Carpenter\nRobert Carpenter, of Greenwich, R. I., the great-grandfather of John A. Carpenter, on the 26th of October, 1755, married Charity Roberts, of Warwick, in the same state. Their children were: Christopher, John, Phebe and Marcy. John of this number, who resided in West Greenwich, married Sarah Stone, and had children: Christopher, Phebe, Patience, Robert and Amos. The last-named and youngest of these children, Amos, on the 19th of June, 1813, married Mary, daughter of Joseph Bailey, of West Greenwich. Their children were: Maria, Sarah C., Marcy S., Patience S., Olive B., George W., John A., Charles B. and Mary E., of whom five are deceased.\nJohn Anthony, the second son, was born June 23d, 1828, in West Greenwich, and at the age of eight years removed to Putnam, then Pomfret, where he pursued his studies at the district school, and meanwhile until 1846 assisted his father in the work of the farm. He then engaged in teaching in the schools of Putnam and vicinity, the intervals when not thus occupied being employed as before, on his father\u2019s farm. In 1857 he entered the office of the Morse Mills Company as accountant, paymaster and manager of the merchandise department, and remained thus occupied until 1866, when he was elected cashier of the First National Bank of Putnam, of which he was one of the incorporators, and has since that time been its active manager. He was the treasurer of the Putnam Savings Bank from 1866 to 1874, and on his resignation from that office continued to act as one of its trustees. Mr. Carpenter was, irrespective of party ties, elected judge of probate for the Putnam district in 1863 and has since that time held the office. He has filled various local positions, and cordially supported all measures tending to the advancement of the town, and its material prosperity. His sympathy with the cause of education assumed practical form in the ,aid he gave with others, toward the establishment of a high school in Putnam, when a member of the school board of the town.\nMr. Carpenter has been twice married. He was first united to Ann Elizabeth, daughter of Byram and Nancy Johnson Williams. Their two children are Nancy Janette (deceased) and Byram Williams. Mrs. Carpenter died August 12th, 1856, and he married a second time, Marcia J., daughter of Moses Chandler, whose ancestors settled in Woodstock in 1686. Their three children are: Jane Elizabeth, wife of Edgar Morris Warner; Anna Chandler and John Frederick.",

        "raw_content": "2018 MLS Playoffs: Finding Value in the Knockout Round\nKelvin Kuo-USA TODAY Sports. Pictured: LAFC celebrate a goal by defender Walker Zimmerman\nThe 2018 MLS Playoffs kick off on Wednesday, October 31st with NYC FC-Philadelphia (7 p.m. ET) and FC Dallas-Portland (9:30 p.m. ET).\nThe knockout round continues Thursday with D.C. United hosting Columbus (8 p.m. ET) and LAFC taking on Real Salt Lake (10:30 p.m. ET).\nEach matchup has seen both public and sharp action, and after analyzing the betting market, I've picked out four value plays.\nThe 2018 MLS Playoffs are set with the New York Red Bulls as the overall No. 1 seed with home-field advantage in the MLS Cup.\nHere\u2019s how the seeds look heading into the postseason:\nByes: New York Red Bulls (#1), Atlanta United (#2)\nKnockout Round: New York City FC (#3) vs. Philadelphia Union (#6), D.C. United (#4) vs. Columbus Crew (#5)\nByes: Sporting Kansas City (#1), Seattle Sounders (#2)\nKnockout Round: LAFC (#3) vs. Real Salt Lake (#6), FC Dallas (#4) vs. Portland Timbers (#5)\nLast season, Toronto FC defeated Seattle to win the 2017 MLS Cup, but there will be a new title matchup and winner this year. Toronto FC got off to a slow start and were never able to recover, missing the playoffs entirely.\nSeattle also struggled early but surged through the summer to claim the second spot in the Western Conference. The Sounders are looking to make their third straight MLS Cup after beating Toronto FC in 2016 and losing to Toronto FC in 2017.\nAfter analyzing the betting market for each matchup in this season\u2019s knockout round, I\u2019ve picked out four value plays.\n(MLS Season Record: 50-52-3 for +32.92 units and a 32% ROI)\nNew York City FC vs. Philadelphia Union (Wednesday, 7 p.m. ET on FS1)\nNYC FC Odds: -165\nPhiladelphia Odds: +420\nDraw Odds: +355\nOver/Under: 3 (o-105)\nThis matchup is incredibly interesting due to the fact that these teams just played three days ago at the same venue \u2014 a 3-1 victory by NYC FC gave them home-field advantage as the third seed.\nPhiladelphia lost its last two matches of the season and ended with a -1 goal differential, pushing it back into the sixth seed with another road game to play.\nIn Wednesday\u2019s encounter, NYC FC opened at -130 to win in regulation, but bettors have been all over them, pushing the line up to -165 around the market. More than 80% of the ticket action is on the home side, and oddsmakers have clearly taken notice.\nCredit: Dennis Schneidler-USA TODAY Sports. Pictured: New York City forward David Villa (7) celebrates his goal against the Philadelphia Union during the first half at Yankee Stadium.\nPublic bettors are even taking it a step further and peppering NYC FC on the goal line (-1) at plus-money. There\u2019s very little confidence in the Union tonight as road underdogs.\nHowever, that\u2019s where I think the contrarian value sets in. Yankee Stadium is a unique venue in which to play soccer, but the Union just dealt with it this weekend. If they can make some necessary adjustments on Wednesday night, they\u2019ll have a chance.\nI thought the initial odds were correct, but now that the lines have shifted, I like the value on Philadelphia +0.5 (+150) in regulation. NYC FC might still advance, but it\u2019ll take more than 90 minutes.\nThe Bet: Philadelphia +0.5 (+150)\nFC Dallas vs. Portland (Wednesday, 9:30 p.m. ET on Unimas and ESPN+)\nFC Dallas Odds: -120\nPortland Odds: +330\nOver/Under: 3 (u-140)\nFC Dallas aren\u2019t coming into this match with a whole lot of confidence as they lost three straight games to wrap up the regular season. Portland also lost its season finale, but had won two in a row before that. Both clubs have nearly identical records, goal differentials and shooting statistics.\nOdds for this matchup opened similarly to those for NYC FC-Philadelphia, but lines have shifted in opposite directions. FC Dallas started out at -130 and dropped to -120, which is a bit surprising since there\u2019s been ticket support on the home side.\nPortland\u2019s odds have moved from +350 to +330, while the draw has gone from +300 to +275. Clearly there have been some sharper or bigger bets coming in on the Timbers, and I tend to agree with them.\nEven though I have a futures ticket riding on FC Dallas to win the title, it\u2019s hard to pass up the value with Portland tonight. I\u2019ll be hoping that this game makes it to extra time with FC Dallas finding a way to advance.\nThe Bet: Portland +0.5 (+110)\nD.C. United vs. Columbus Crew (Thursday, 8 p.m. ET on FS1)\nDC Odds: +125\nColumbus Odds: +230\nOver/Under: 2.5 (o-122)\nThere\u2019s no doubt that D.C. United have a ton of momentum heading into the playoffs, going unbeaten over their final 10 regular-season games to snatch home-field in the knockout round.\nMeanwhile, Columbus limped into the postseason in an odd way. They ended up with a -2 goal differential and the same exact record as D.C. United, yet their expected goal differential (xGD) was at +15.6. The Crew seemed to be unlucky, and likely should have finished with a better seed.\nNevertheless, D.C. United is hosting on Wednesday night at their new Audi Field, and the stadium will be rocking.\nCredit: Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports. Pictured: D.C. United forward Wayne Rooney (9).\nPublic bettors have been hammering the home team, but odds have moved in favor of Columbus and the draw. Despite more than 70% of bets on D.C., the line has increased from +105 to +125.\nHome teams generally dominate in the regular season, but in the last two postseasons, the \u201cworse\u201d seed has advanced in 10 of 22 matchups. I\u2019ll be rolling with the sharper money and taking road side Columbus to spring the outright upset on Thursday night.\nThe Bet: Columbus +230\nLAFC vs. Real Salt Lake (Thursday, 10:30 p.m. ET on ESPN2)\nLAFC Odds: -210\nRSL Odds: +520\nThis was anticipated to be the most lopsided matchup of the knockout round, and even oddsmakers underestimated the lines initially.\nLAFC opened -190 and attracted all the early action, quickly moving up to -210. Since this is the last game of the knockout round, bettors will have plenty of time to drive the line up even further. It wouldn\u2019t be a total surprise to see it get to the -230/-240 range.\nLAFC\u2019s offensive attack is too good to be stopped, and Real Salt Lake weren\u2019t able to in either matchup this season, losing 5-1 and 2-0. I don\u2019t see this match ending in anything but an LAFC victory.\nThe Bet: LAFC -1 (-130)\nPhiladelphia +0.5 (+140)\nPortland +0.5 (+110)\nLAFC -1 (-130)",

Owned and operated by Garry Sweeney and Sharon Pearson, Mt Lofty Range Vineyards will transform into a fusion of Cajun and Caribbean grooves, the cellar door hosting a reggae band and offering a Cajun barbecue to complement their wines. According to Sweeney, Mt Lofty Range Vineyard will officially launch four brand new wines on the day. \u201cThis will include our new Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and our new bubbles. For us, it\u2019s also about giving something back to the people who have supported us over the last 12 months. An event like this is about the people who buy our wine and who get behind us, as well as what the cellar door can offer to them. We\u2019re keen to put on a day for people to come up and enjoy the Hills, it\u2019s cost effective and you can have a bit of fun. Rather than just having 20,000 people drinking at a park, the clientele that comes up here is very loyal, they\u2019re wine-enthusiasts and the entire day is very relaxed.\u201d Sweeney \u2013 who prides himself on being \u201cspot-on in predicting the weather\u201d at Crush each year \u2013 says he expects around 300 wine-lovers to make their way to his cellar door at any one point. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to having a wine and a bit of fun with such a loyal following that we have. I hope people enjoy the new wines we\u2019re got as well. Last year we joined up with another cellar door for the Beach Party theme so we had about 600 people around at any one point. This year we\u2019re expecting about 300 for our own Caribbean theme. I\u2019m also predicting it will be 29 degrees on the day, and considering that I got it exactly right last year, we\u2019ll see if I can do it again.\u201d Adelaide Hills Wine Region President, John Harvey, claims that Crush is a very unique South Australian event which not only focuses on wine but also entertainment and fashion. In 2013, the festival organisers have more in store than ever before. \u201cThe pairing of art, music and fashion with wine and food drew record crowds in 2012 and allowed visitors to explore the unique and edgy side of the wine region,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s something that proudly sets Crush apart from other wine festivals. The Adelaide Hills come alive during the Crush Festival and this year more than ever, the region is excited to be working with Paolo Sebastian designer Paul Vasileff, Simon Bryant and Michael Ellis to help showcase the great wine, food and creative inspirations on offer throughout the region.\u201d crushfestival.com.au\nTags: adelaide hills\nStreet ADL\u2019s Jock Zonfrillo talks 2015 WOMADelaide restaurant\nFood for Thought: Winter\nFood for Thought: Wine\nAdelaide Central Market\u2019s Future: Digital, Green and Maybe Daily",

M.\nAn effective recycling technology for fiber\u2013reinforced composites will increase their use in many applications while decreasing the environmental burden associated with their disposal. Recycling technologies that allow for the recovery of the fibers are of particular interest, especially in the case of valuable carbon fibers. Adherent Technologies, Inc. has developed a chemical recycling technology that allows for the recovery of the carbon fibers and also produces a phenolic oil mixture that can be used for the formulation of phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins. The goal of this study was to use well-defined phenolic model compounds to study the gelation process for complex mixtures of phenolics. The model compound work follows the simple statistical approaches developed by Flory and Stockmayer. These phenolic model compounds simulate the behavior of the complex products obtained from the recycling of thermoset composites. These results show that these complex phenolics will be incorporated into the PF polymer network and that high performance networks can be produced.\nPhenol-Formaldehyde (PF), Composite Materials, recycling, carbon fibers, phenolic oil, gelation, thermoset composites",

On top of that, I need to have portable materials ready for each of those roles, because they all require mobility, as the main work of all of them is done at ever-changing locations.\nSome people collect stamps, or coins or even Precious Moments figures. I have a collection of globes. But the real clue to my life as a Freeway Flyer is my collection of textbooks and related materials that take up no less than three wide shelves in my library at home. And this is a pruned collection. As an adjunct, once a publisher has gotten hold of my name, I tend to end up with countless instructor\u2019s review copies of not only textbooks, but supplementary materials. These include transparencies, CDs and DVDs, test banks, study guides, and atlases.\nThe disadvantage of this is, sometimes, being the geek that I am, each new copy is like a distracting new toy \u2013 ooh maybe I\u2019ll use this one this semester. Ooooh this one has great maps and sidebars and includes excerpts from original documents!!\nThe advantage of this is that a number of times I was able to actually choose which text I wanted my students to use, and the college ordered the text. In addition, having all these texts also has added color and depth to my topic as I rewrite my lessons each semester. It is always helpful to have varying points of view to keep the subject matter fresh and interesting.\nBut sometimes the collection can get redundant. How many editions of How Western Civilization Was Built do I really need? Not to mention six sets of transparencies, now obsolete with the coming of flash drives, PowerPoint, Smartboards and projectors linked to the computer?\nUnfortunately, I could never just throw out these items. Instead, I giveaway my excesses through freecycle.org, a great recycling site that has groups in almost every major city. Once a member, you can post items you don\u2019t want for people to claim, and request items you are looking for. The founder set this up because he wanted to re-home items that were still usable to some extent rather than seeing it all end up in landfills. I\u2019ve given away more at this point than I\u2019ve gotten, but it\u2019s nice to know that some of those textbooks, study guides and transparencies have gone to students who can use them.\nIn the end, I like to think that my Freeway Flyer home office is not so much the sign of a fractured personality, but rather that of a very versatile juggler.\nAbout the Freeway Flyer: Helene Goldstein Matheny received a B.A. in history from Rutgers University, an MA in Russian History and Literature from the University of London, and an M.S.Th. degree from The New Seminary, where she was ordained as an Interfaith Minister. She has lived in Russia and England, and traveled throughout Europe, Israel, Russia, Ukraine, New Zealand, Fiji and Australia. Helene has taught most frequently as an adjunct professor of history for the last ten years in New York, New Jersey and Mississippi, in addition to teaching history, comparative religion and astronomy at museums and other learning institutions. She is also an accredited pet dog trainer, writes freelance, and has presided over hundreds of weddings as an Interfaith Celebrant and currently lives in Purvis, MS with her husband, three parrots, a cat and a dog. Her writing also appears on examiner.com, and her blogs about life in the South and interests in science, spirit and history.\ncollectionsdonating extra materialsfreecycle.orgHelene Goldstein Mathenyhome libararyhome officemultiple jobs\nJealousy (Maybe Just A Little)\nHelene Matheny says 8 years ago\nI certainly know about the distractions at home \u2013 especially with a cat, a dog and three parrots!! I, too, found that I got a lot of work done on my Thanksgiving break when I was in NYC visiting family \u2013 and took my net book to a Manhattan Starbucks for several hours! I was planning to also do some re-writing and re-organizing this break, but unfortunately have been sick first with a bad case of the flu and then a sinus infection (due to the lovely damp Mississippi winter). I still have two weeks until next semester starts, so hopefully I can get a little done!\nYeah, during the break, I\u2019m cleaning the apartment and the \u201coffice\u201d. 2 dozen textbooks were given away on FreeCycle; and my x-mas present to myself were fabulous new (and tall) bookshelves that will help me reorganize some of the work space; I\u2019ve also downgraded my desk and gotten rid of some of those things that are \u201chard to let go\u201d but need to be.\nThe bigger problem about my apartment being my office is that there are too many distractions (especially since I could access my Netflix on my Wii) and I find myself more and more hanging at coffee shops to get serious work done! \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "Let\u2019s get frank for a second here. If you\u2019re running a newsletter or email list, you want it to be profitable. That\u2019s why you\u2019re here to learn more about monetizing email newsletters.\nThe good news is that there are a lot of ways to monetize your email list and newsletters. The bad news is that there are too many ways to monetize your emails.\nThe abundant choice is actually also a downside. This is because it can be quite difficult to decide on a monetization scheme. How do you decide where to invest your energy and efforts?\nFortunately, this article will give you some great advice and recommendations on keeping it simple. We only cover the methods that are well-proven to work for any email list owner. Let\u2019s dive in.\nChances are, you\u2019ve seen people praising affiliate marketing everywhere you look. Some authors even make it seem like affiliate marketing is the only right way to monetize.\nThe reality is a bit more nuanced of course. An optimal monetization strategy will always include elements of affiliate marketing. This much is true.\nHowever, it isn\u2019t true that affiliate marketing is the only right way to monetize. Or that those other methods are a \u201cwaste of time\u201d. An optimal strategy will combine the best monetization methods in one synergistic plan.\nWith that said, affiliate marketing is one of the fastest ways to start making profits. The other quickest way is implementing intelligent and \u201cdone-for-you\u201d advertising systems. But more on that later.\nCharge a Subscription\nDo you have a highly engaged list? Are your readers eagerly reading your emails and clicking the links you recommend? If this is the case, congratulations on doing a good job. You have a great foundation for every monetization method on this list.\nFurthermore, you have fulfilled the main criteria for the method I\u2019m about to share with you. Consider selling your readers on an upgrade. If your readers are loving your newsletter, they might just be willing to pay to get more of your stuff.\nThis will depend on the niche and type of newsletter, though. This makes more sense in certain industries than others. A newsletter with professional information for highly-paid industry professionals is a good example.\nIf you\u2019re sharing industry news and tips that affect the reader\u2019s earnings, they value your newsletter in a different way. They might just be willing to pay for the privilege of getting more of your good stuff. Some examples include newsletters that target lawyers, medical specialists or stock traders.\nWhatever your industry or niche, however, it\u2019s worth considering this option. Also, don\u2019t hesitate to test the waters. Perhaps send a portion of your readership a teaser. Ask them if they are at all interested in a paid subscription upgrade.\nIf you offer any services, you\u2019ve probably already advertised them in your newsletter. However, chances are you\u2019re not doing it as well as you could.\nIf you have a good list and well-priced services, you can monetize the list quite well. If both your list and services are good, but readers rarely buy them \u2013 you\u2019ve got work to do.\nMany people have an issue with selling themselves. They find it way easier to sell someone else\u2019s product than advertising their own service. So they minimize and \u201cstay small\u201d. They don\u2019t want to be pushy with the reader and \u201cbother them\u201d too much with pitching their own service.\nThere is a simple solution to that. Don\u2019t think of it as a pitch, think of it as \u201cproviding value\u201d. Think of it as an upgrade. You know they get value from your newsletters. If they didn\u2019t they would have unsubscribed.\nBut you have so much more value you can give inside of a service. Your goal is to help the reader understand how they can get even more value from your services.\nAnd if you have no services of your own?\nConsider if there is an easy way to create a service that\u2019s highly profitable. This will depend on your niche and your skills. And consider this, not everyone has to bite. It should be just one of several monetization strategies you\u2019re using.\nPerhaps you can only offer a service that only applies to a small portion of your readers. That\u2019s ok, do it anyway. Your service doesn\u2019t have to be attractive to the entire list.\nIf the return on investment is there, and you get more by providing the service than you put in \u2013 it\u2019s all well worth it. The rest of your list will still get monetized from the other monetization methods.\nSell Advertising Space\nAdvertising might just be the easiest way to increase the monetization of your newsletter. It can also be the most difficult way to monetize. Why the difference? It depends on how you go about it.\nIf you try to handle it all on your own, this will take a lot of time and effort. You will have to contact potential advertisers, spend time negotiating and so much more.\nFurther, most advertisers won\u2019t even bother with your list if it isn\u2019t big enough. You will have a hard time convincing them to put an ad. You might even be asked to create the actual ads for them or spend time testing ad placements.\nLet\u2019s get real for a second. Advertising will rarely be enough to achieve \u201cas much monetization as possible\u201d. But an optimal monetization strategy will always include some advertising. In fact, it would make no sense to let that newsletter space go to waste. It is like letting \u201cfree money\u201d go to waste.\nThe biggest advantage of selling ads is that you can start seeing immediate monetization. You don\u2019t have to build a service, you don\u2019t have to create products. If your newsletters are getting views, you can instantly convert that to revenue.\nMonetizing email newsletters can be easy \u2013 Let Admailr help you\nMonetization can be really easy if you let us help you.

The Eco-Challenge event was held every year from 1995 \u2013 2002. The first race started in Utah and the event went on to be produced in British Columbia, Morocco, Argentina, Borneo, Alaska and New Zealand. The last race was held in Fiji in 2002.\nAlong the way, the Eco-Challenge team worked very closely with tourism offices. The race was a unique way to showcase the landscape and adventure potential of each destination. The team also got a lot of logistical support from outfitters and local people. The traveling production team for the Eco-Challenge included 500 people: up to 75 teams of 4 from around the world, 100 volunteers, 21 camera teams, 50 locals and 100+ staff and crew.\nLisa Hennessy Mark Burnett and athletes and crew from Eco-Challenge Utah \u2013 20 years later.\nEco-Challenge was created by a young British entrepreneur named Mark Burnett. A lot has changed since 1995. The team used to fax agreements back and forth and rely on international calling cards. Now, they could even scout a location using Google maps.\nThe cast and crew of Eco-Challenge held a 20th anniversary event in Santa Monica on April 25. With help from social media, hundreds of people from around the globe were able to reconnect and attend the celebration. Eco-Challenge embodied the belief that experiences \u2014 not things \u2014 make a life well-lived.\nAbout DreamJobbing:\nLisa Hennessy was the Co-Executive Producer of Eco-Challenge, and she went on to executive produce hundreds of hours of network TV (Contender, Rock Star, Biggest Loser). Her newest adventure is an innovative company called DreamJobbing. DreamJobbing works with brands, businesses, tourism offices and celebrities to offer unforgettable experiences.

        "raw_content": "Deutsche Version aufrufen\nJoint General Terms and Conditions of Aesku.Diagnostics GmbH & Co. KG and Aesku.Systems GmbH & Co. KG\n(1) All deliveries and services by either Aesku.Diagnostics GmbH & Co. KG or Aesku.Systems GmbH & Co. KG (each or collectively hereinafter referred to as \"AESKU\") shall be made and rendered exclusively on the following terms of delivery and payment. These terms also apply to making software available for use.\n(2) Deviating terms and conditions of the buyer are explicitly opposed hereby. Such terms and conditions shall be binding upon AESKU only if AESKU has accepted them in writing. This requirement of consent shall apply in any case, for example also in the case that AESKU effects delivery to the buyer without reservation, having full knowledge of the buyer's terms and conditions.\n(3) By placing the order and accepting the goods delivered by AESKU, the buyer confirms its agreement with AESKU's terms and conditions.\n(4) Legally relevant statements and notifications which the buyer is obliged to give to AESKU subsequent to entering into the contract (e. g. setting a time limit, notification of defects, statement of rescission or reduction [Minderung]) shall be made in writing in order to be valid.\n\u00a7 2 OFFER AND DELIVERY\n(1) All offers made by AESKU shall always be without obligation and non-binding, unless they are explicitly described as binding or include a specific time limit for acceptance; AESKU's written confirmation of an order shall constitute the basis of the contract and determine the scope of the delivery. This shall also apply in such case that the buyer has requested a specific offer.\n(2) Orders placed by the buyer shall be binding upon it. Acceptance may be stated either in writing (e.g. by confirmation of the order) or by delivering the goods to the buyer.\n(3) Obvious errors, mistakes in printing, calculation, spelling and miscalculations shall not be binding upon AESKU and shall not entitle the buyer to any claims for damages.\n(4) Delivery shall take place\n- for Aesku.Diagnostics GmbH & Co. KG: EXW Mikroforum Ring 2, 55234 Wendelsheim, Germany, Incoterms 2010. In case of a chain transaction in accordance with sec 3 subsection 6 sentence 5 of the German Value Added Tax Act [Umsatzsteuergesetz] delivery shall take place FCA Mikroforum Ring 2, 55234 Wendelsheim, Germany, Incoterms 2010.\n- for Aesku.Systems GmbH & Co. KG: EXW Mikroforum Ring 3, 55234 Wendelsheim, Germany, Incoterms 2010. In case of a chain transaction in accordance with sec 3 subsection 6 sentence 5 of the German Value Added Tax Act [Umsatzsteuergesetz] delivery shall take place FCA Mikroforum Ring 3, 55234 Wendelsheim, Germany, Incoterms 2010.\n\u00a7 3 Export restrictions, sanctions\n(1) Unless otherwise agreed, all quoted prices are given in EUROS ex works plus packaging, the statutory value-added tax in effect at the time of delivery, customs duties in case of export deliveries as well as fees and other public levies.\n(2) In the case of a sales shipment (\u00a7 6 subsection 1), the buyer shall bear the shipping charges ex warehouse and the expenses of transport insurance which the buyer may have requested. Transport and any other packaging materials in accordance with the German Regulation on Packaging [Verpackungsverordnung] shall not be taken back by AESKU, they shall become the property of the buyer; pallets shall be excluded.\n(3) Unless otherwise agreed, the purchase price shall be due and payable within 14 days from invoice date and delivery or acceptance of goods respectively.\n\u00a7 5 Time of delivery, delay in delivery\n(1) The delivery period shall be stipulated individually or specified by AESKU upon acceptance of the order respectively.\n(2) If AESKU is unable to adhere to binding delivery periods for reasons which AESKU is not responsible for (non-availability of performance), AESKU shall, without delay, inform the buyer hereof and, at the same time, of the expected new delivery period. Should the performance be unavailable within the new delivery period either, then AESKU shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract in whole or in part; a consideration already made by the buyer shall be reimbursed by AESKU without delay. As used here, a case of non-availability of performance shall in particular be AESKU's delayed receipt of supplies from its own subcontractors if AESKU has concluded a matching cover transaction and no fault can be attributed to either AESKU or its subcontractors, or in case AESKU is under no obligation for the procurement in a particular case.\n(3) The occurrence of AESKU's delayed delivery is governed by sec 286 of the German Civil Code [B\u00fcrgerliches Gesetzbuch, \u201cBGB\u201d]. In each case, however, a reminder by the buyer shall be mandatory. If AESKU is delayed with its delivery, the buyer may claim a flat-rate compensation for its damage caused by the delay. For each completed calendar week of the delay, the flat-rate compensation for damage shall be 0.5 % of the net price (declared value of goods), altogether, however, not exceed 5 % of the declared value of the goods delivered with delay. AESKU shall reserve the right to evidence that the buyer has not incurred a loss at all or only a loss substantially less significant than the above-mentioned lump sum amount.\n(4) The rights of the buyer pursuant to \u00a7 10 and the statutory rights of AESKU, in particular in the case that the obligation to perform a contract is excluded (e.g. based on impossibility or hardship of performance and/or supplementary performance), shall remain unaffected.\n\u00a7 6 Delivery, passing of risk\n(1) Delivery shall be effected ex warehouse, which also constitutes the place of performance. Upon request and at the buyer\u2019s expense, the goods shall be delivered to a different destination (sales shipment). In such case, AESKU itself shall determine the type of shipment (in particular carrier, shipping route, and packaging).\n(2) The risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration of the goods shall pass to the buyer no later than at the time of handing over. In the case of a sales shipment, the risk of accidental loss or accidental deterioration of the goods, as well as the risk of delay shall pass already at the time of delivering the goods to the forwarding agent, carrier, or the person otherwise designated to effect shipment. This shall also apply if AESKU assumes the shipping charges in individual cases. Insofar as an acceptance has been agreed upon, such shall then be decisive for the passing of risk. Furthermore, the statutory regulations of sec 640 of the BGB shall apply to agreed acceptances, respectively. The buyer's default of acceptance shall be considered equivalent to the delivery of goods or acceptance respectively.\n(1) Until all of AESKU's present and future receivables arising out of the sales contract and current business relations (secured receivables) have been paid in full, AESKU shall retain title to the goods sold.\n(2) Goods delivered under retention of title may neither be pledged to third parties nor assigned by way of security prior to the full payment of the secured receivables. The buyer shall inform, without delay, AESKU in writing if and to the extent to which third parties have access to goods owned by AESKU.\n(3) In the case of the buyer's breach of contract, in particular by non-payment of the purchase price due, AESKU shall have, pursuant to sec 323 of the BGB, the right to rescind the contract and, based on the retention of title and rescission, to demand the return of the goods. If the buyer does not pay the purchase price due, AESKU may assert these rights only if AESKU has previously unsuccessfully given the buyer a reasonable time limit for payment, or if setting of such a time limit is dispensable under the applicable statutory provisions.\n(4) The buyer shall be entitled to resell and/or process the goods delivered under retention of title in the proper course of business. In this case, the following provisions shall additionally apply.\n(a) The retention of title shall cover the products that result from processing, mixing or combining the goods from AESKU at their full value, with AESKU being considered the manufacturer. If upon processing, mixing or combining goods of a third party the latter's ownership continues to exist, then AESKU shall acquire co-ownership in proportion to the invoice values of the processed, mixed or combined goods. Besides, the same conditions as for the goods delivered under retention of title shall apply for the resulting product.\n(b) Claims against third parties arising out of the resale of the goods or the product shall hereby be assigned as security by the buyer to AESKU, in total or in the amount of AESKU's possible co-owner's share respectively, pursuant to the above-mentioned subsection. AESKU hereby accepts the assignment. The obligations of the buyer set out in subsection 2 shall apply with regard to the assigned claims, as well.\n(c) Aside from AESKU, the buyer shall remain authorized to collect the receivables. AESKU undertakes not to collect the receivables, as long as the buyer meets its financial obligations owed to AESKU, does not default on payments, no application for the opening of insolvency proceedings has been made, and no other financial incapacity exists. Should this be the case, however, AESKU may then demand that the buyer discloses the assigned claims and their debtors, furnishes all information necessary for the collection, hands over the appropriate records, and informs the debtors (third parties) of the assignment.\n(d) If the realizable value of the securities exceeds AESKU's claims by more than 10 %, AESKU shall release, upon the buyer's request, securities of AESKU's choice.\n\u00a7 8 Use of software\nFor software of any type for which AESKU holds title or any other right, the buyer shall be granted against payment a non-exclusive, non-transferable right of use for an indefinite period of time on a specific hardware product, or on one to be stipulated in a particular case, respectively. The right of use shall also include the documentation appertaining to the software. AESKU shall remain the owner of the copyright as well as of all other intellectual property rights. The right to make copies shall only be granted for the purpose of data storage. Copyright notices may not be removed.\n\u00a7 9 CLAIMS BASED ON DEFECTS\n(1) In the case of material defects and defects in title (including wrong and short delivery as well as improper installation or faulty installation instructions), secs 434 et seq of the BGB shall apply to the buyer's rights, unless otherwise stated below. The statutory special provisions on final delivery of goods to a consumer (supplier recourse pursuant to secs 478, 479 of the BGB) shall remain unaffected in all cases.\n(2) AESKU's liability for defects is first and foremost based on the agreement reached on the quality of the goods. As agreement on the quality of the goods shall be considered the product specifications named as such (also those of the manufacturer), which were made available to the buyer before its order placement, or were included in the contract in the same way as these terms and conditions. Customary deviations and deviations which occur based on legal provisions or which represent technical improvements, as well as the replacement of components by equivalent parts shall be permissible insofar as they do not interfere with the use for the purpose intended under the contract.\n(3) Analysis systems manufactured by Aesku.Systems GmbH & Co. KG are designed only for use with analysis products of Aesku.Diagnostics GmbH & Co. KG and/or DST Diagnostische Systeme & Technologien GmbH. AESKU shall not give any guarantee whatsoever for the compatibility with analysis products of third party manufacturers.\n(4) If, beyond the provisions in \u00a7 9 subsection 2, the quality has not been agreed upon, the applicable statutory provisions shall determine whether or not a defect exists (sec 434 subsection 1 sentence 2 and 3 of the BGB). AESKU however shall not assume any liability for public comments by the manufacturer or other third parties (e.g. advertising statements).(5) The buyer's claims based on defects require that it has met its statutory duties to inspect the goods and to give notice of defects (\u00a7 377 of the German Commercial Code [Handelsgesetzbuch, HGB]). If a defect is detected during inspection or subsequently, then AESKU shall be notified hereof in writing without delay. The notification shall be considered to be without delay if it is given within two weeks, in which case the timely dispatch of the notification shall suffice for meeting the deadline. Irrespective of this duty to inspect the goods and give notice of defects, the buyer shall within two weeks of delivery give notice of obvious defects (including wrong and short delivery) in writing, in which case here, too, the timely dispatch of the notification shall suffice for meeting the deadline. If the buyer omits the proper inspection and/or notice of defects, AESKU's liability for the unreported defect shall be excluded.\n(5) The buyer's claims arising from defects presuppose that the buyer has met its statutory duties to inspect the goods and to give notice of defects (sec 377 of the German Commercial Code [Handelsgesetzbuch, HGB]). If a defect is detected during inspection or subsequently, then AESKU shall be notified hereof in writing without delay. The notification shall be considered to be without delay if it is given within two weeks, whereupon the timely dispatch of the notification shall suffice for meeting the deadline. Irrespective of this duty to inspect the goods and to give notice of defects, the buyer, within two weeks of delivery, shall give notice of obvious defects (including wrong and short delivery) in writing, whereupon too, the timely dispatch of the notification shall suffice for meeting the deadline. If the buyer omits the proper inspection and/or notice of a defect, AESKU's liability for the unreported defect shall be excluded.\n(6) If the delivered goods are defective, the buyer may initially, at its choice, request as supplementary performance the removal of the defect (subsequent improvement) or delivery of goods free of any defect (substitute delivery). If the buyer does not state which of the two options the buyer chooses, AESKU may then set a reasonable time limit for the buyer to do so. If the buyer does not choose an option within the time limit, the option shall pass to AESKU.\n(7) AESKU shall be entitled to make the supplementary performance owed contingent upon the buyer paying the purchase price due. The buyer shall be entitled, however, to withhold a reasonable part of the purchase price in proportion to the defect.\n(8) The buyer shall give AESKU the time and opportunity necessary for the supplementary performance owed, in particular, make the rejected goods available for the purpose of examination. In the case of a substitute delivery, the buyer shall return the defective goods to AESKU pursuant to secs 439 subsection 5, 346 to 348 of the BGB. The supplementary performance shall neither include the removal of the defective goods nor the renewed installation, if the installation originally was not AESKU's duty.\n(9) The expenses necessary for the purpose of examination and supplementary performance, in particular costs of transportation, infrastructure, labor and materials (: costs of removal and installation excluded), shall be borne by AESKU if a defect does actually exist. Should the buyer's demand for the defect removal turn out to be unjustified, however, AESKU may demand that the buyer reimburses the costs resulting therefrom.\n(10) In urgent cases, e.g. in the event of operational safety being jeopardized or for averting disproportionate damages, the buyer shall have the right to remove the defect itself and to request compensation from AESKU for the expenses objectively necessary for this purpose. In the case of such self-help measures, the buyer shall notify AESKU immediately, if possible prior to taking any such measures. The right of self-help shall not exist if AESKU were entitled to refuse a corresponding supplementary performance pursuant to the applicable statutory provisions.\n(11) If the supplementary performance has failed, or a reasonable time limit for a supplementary performance to be set by the buyer has expired without any success, or is dispensable pursuant to applicable statutory provisions, the buyer may rescind the sales contract or reduce [mindern] the purchase price. In the case of an insignificant defect, however, the right of rescission shall not exist.\n(12) The buyer's claims for damages and compensation for futile expenses respectively shall exist only in accordance with \u00a7 10 and shall be excluded in all other respects.\n(1) AESKU shall be liable for damages - regardless of the legal ground - in the case of intent and gross negligence. In the case of simple negligence, AESKU shall be liable only\n(a) for damages resulting from death, injury to body and health,\n(b) for damages resulting from the breach of an essential contractual obligation (an obligation whose fulfillment makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose adherence the contracting party regularly relies on and may rely on); in this case, however, AESKU's liability shall be limited to the compensation of the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.\n(2) The limitation on liability resulting from subsection 2 shall not apply if AESKU has fraudulently concealed a defect or has guaranteed the quality of the goods. The same shall apply to claims of the buyer pursuant to the German Product Liability Act [Produkthaftungsgesetz].\n(3) Due to a breach of duty that does not consist in a defect, the buyer can withdraw from or terminate the contract only if AESKU is responsible for the breach of duty. A free right of termination for the buyer is excluded. Besides, the statutory prerequisites and legal consequences shall apply.\n(1) Deviating from sec 438 subsection 1 No. 3 of the BGB, the general limitation period is one year from delivery for claims based on material defects and defects in title. If an acceptance has been agreed upon, the limitation period begins upon acceptance.\n(2) The above-mentioned limitation period shall also apply to those contractual and non-contractual compensation claims of the buyer based on a defect of the goods, unless, in individual cases, the application of the regular statutory limitation pursuant to secs 195, 199 of the BGB would lead to a shorter limitation period. The limitation periods of the product liability law shall remain unaffected in any case. Otherwise, to damage claims by the buyer pursuant to \u00a7 10, the limitation periods acc. to secs 195 et seq of the BGB shall apply exclusively.\n\u00a7 12 VENUE\nFor all disputes arising out of the contractual relationship, venue shall be Mainz if the buyer is a merchant entered as such in the Commercial Register [Vollkaufmann], a legal person under public law, a special fund under public law, or has its residence or business head office outside of the Federal Republic of Germany. AESKU shall also have the right to take legal action at the place of the buyer's business head office.\n(1) The relations between AESKU and the buyer shall be exclusively governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany.\n(2) These General Terms and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with German law. The legal terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to them under German law. The legal terms in this Agreement followed by a German translation in parentheses shall have the meaning ascribed to them according to the German translation under German law.",

Parliament also approved a resolution for Ghana to subscribe for shares in the institution.\nFirst Deputy Speaker Edward Doe Ajaho, who chaired the session in Parliament, said Ghana was pleased to join its sister African nations that had already become members of the Africa Finance Corporation. \"Clearly, Africa's area of greatest need today is infrastructure development and AFC is well positioned to help fill the void in this important area. My country welcomes the opportunity to lend our support to AFC's efforts in bridging the dire infrastructure investment gap on our continent. Ghana is one of the countries that supported the establishment of AFC from the very beginning. We are therefore exceedingly happy that the country has today finally become a formal member of the organisation.\" Mr. Ajaho commended Ghanaian Members of Parliament for supporting the resolution.\nSpeaking to senior parliamentary and government officials on behalf of AFC's President and Chief Executive Officer Andrew Alli immediately after the proceedings, the corporation's Executive Director and General Counsel, Adesegun Akin-Olugbade, expressed his organisation's appreciation to the Government of Ghana for the confidence reposed in the institution. \"We are delighted to welcome Ghana as a formal member of AFC. Ghana is not only a country in which we have a number of active projects, but also one whose continued involvement in helping to champion African development makes it an invaluable player in the vision and mission of our organisation. As more and more countries come on board, AFC can only grow from strength to strength as the African conceived and African led institution that it is. It is truly a reflection of Africa looking within itself to facilitate and consolidate development.\"",

The expansion added 17,500 square feet of space and brought the company\u2019s total footprint at 3333 Richard Arrington Jr. Blvd. to about 29,500 square feet.\nThe new warehouse space allowed warehousing functions to be moved out of the production facility, making room for the addition of new equipment and improving the plant\u2019s efficiency, said owner Davies Hood.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a much smoother flow,\u201d Hood said.\nThe company got about $15,000 in tax abatements from the city, and expects to be granted more when it hits a hiring benchmark. Further incentives were dependent upon the company adding five employees to its payroll of 34. It\u2019s already hired three, Hood said.\nThe company began as a supplier of rust-resistant primers to the steel industry, and expanded into the industrial primer and paint business in the 1960s. The expansion dedicated today was the company\u2019s biggest since the 60s, Hood said.\nFred McCallum, president of AT&T Alabama and chairman of the Birmingham Business Alliance, said the expansion is evidence that Birmingham is gaining momentum.\n\u201cWe have a motivated, educated and well-trained work force,\u201d McCallum said. \u201cWe\u2019re really just getting started.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "GreenbrierNelsonBros-8569\nLast Christmas season, a friend who hails from Georgia, and had just returned from visiting family, brought a bottle of Belle Meade Bourbon to a Christmas gathering in Queens. Though the host had been generous with his whiskey offerings and the real booze drinkers few, the Belle Meade was empty within what seemed like only an hour or so. I was disappointed to find out this wonderful nectar was only available in parts of the South (now also California and Texas), but maybe that\u2019s better for my liver. It turns out that Belle Meade, the first post-Prohibition offering from Nelson\u2019s Greenbrier Distillery in Tennessee, has a fascinating past, and a very promising and exciting future. Brothers Charlie and Andy Nelson only recently discovered that their great-great-great grandfather, Charles Nelson, owned and operated one of the biggest and most successful distilleries in the country prior to losing it all in the so-called \u201cNoble Experiment\u201d (luckily he had a prosperous banking business, among other things, to fall back on). But it wasn\u2019t until the brothers were well into adulthood, (up till then Charlie used his gift for languages to travel the world and bartend; Andy worked as a film editor) that they fully became aware, serendipitously, of the scope of what had been the family business.\nOnce they did, they knew this was their true calling. It turns out a lot of information about the distillery exists in public and private archives. So Charlie and Andy set about researching all they could about the distillery, learning the ropes of distilling, and using original recipes as guides, resurrecting the once shuttered business for new generations.\nAs they got more involved in the TN distiller scene, they also found themselves engaged in local industry politics. As we covered in the past, there is a movement, prompted by Big Whiskey brand portfolios, (which, it should be mentioned, we at Alcohol Professor have and will continue to support, as this is a journalistic report, after all), to change the legislation defining TN Whiskey and how its character can be maintained. This is a blow to smaller brands who rely on the Tennessee Whiskey label on their products to advertise certain levels of production style, quality and provenance, otherwise, well, it\u2019s just \u201cwhiskey.\u201d Furthermore, if this initiative is successful, what\u2019s to stop it from affecting other American Whiskey categories such as bourbon?\nVia Skype, I recently spoke to the Nelson brothers about their astonishing family discovery, what\u2019s next for them and their position in the fight to preserve the standards of TN Whiskey.\n(L-R) Andy and Charlie Nelson\nAmanda Schuster: I heard you guys are in the process of making a TN Whiskey recipe. Can you talk about that?\nCharlie: Charles Nelson, our triple great grandfather, produced about 30 different labels, Belle Meade Bourbon was one of those, but his signature brand was his Greenbrier Tennessee Whiskey. And we\u2019ve got that original recipe and that\u2019s what we\u2019re going to be focusing primary production on in our facility here in Nashville.\nAS: When will that be ready, do you think?\nAndy: We\u2019re going to be ready to distill probably within the next three months. It\u2019s kind of in flux with construction. Until that\u2019s done, nothing is set in stone.\nAS: As it were.\nAndy: Ha! Right. And a few months after we get distilling [on the Greenbrier] we should have tour and tasting rooms ready.\nAS: I was reading a bit about how you discovered that you came from a whiskey-making family, so if you hadn\u2019t learned about this till relatively later in your lives, how were you able to find the family recipes?\nAndy: From the moment we figured this all out, it was nonstop archives, old family tales, getting stories from family members and then residents of Greenbrier, the town, who had been there forever and maybe had family members who worked at the distillery. A lot of it was digging online and visiting the state and county archives. Finding old artifacts.\nAS: It must have been exciting seeing all the layers unfold to help you put this together.\nCharlie: Out of the 30 different labels or so that Charles Nelson produced we found a handful of different recipes from back in the day, some came from old newspaper articles, things that even had the mashbill percentage\u2026\nAS: Oh, that\u2019s lucky!\nCharlie: \u2026 yeah. Old documents that said things like how many bushels of grain he was using for each mash, that sort of thing. So it wasn\u2019t all just like \u2018here\u2019s the recipe\u2019 a lot of it was that we had to do some figuring. \u2018Ok, there were 100 bushels of corn used here and then 20 bushels of wheat...\u2019 So we had to sort of back in to some of them.\nAS: I also read that you found a couple of the original bottles. Did you open any to taste test, see if you got things right?\nAndy: Well, the first bottles we found were empty, though it was exciting enough to see our name on the label and see those bottles existed. [Holds up bottle.]\nAS: Ahhh! Look at that! So cool! Wow, and so well preserved!\nAndy: Yeah, until the last 2 or 3 years I guess we hadn\u2019t seen a bottle with any liquid in it.\nCharlie: But our great uncle has one, and our cousin has one, and some other collectors. But we haven\u2019t tasted it.\nthe original distillery in Greenbrier\nAndy: I mean, I would love to taste it\u2026 For one thing, the cork is very old and might crumble into the whiskey. So we have to get one of those [cork extracting devices] to take it out properly. But also, there\u2019s that mystery. There\u2019s something mysterious and sacred about it that I have struggled with. Maybe it isn\u2019t time yet.\nAS: Was there anything that surprised you as you uncovered these pieces of the puzzle - these documents, etc.?\nAndy: Almost everything, really! Because growing up we knew a little bit about it, but we didn\u2019t honestly know if it was a legal distillery, I mean, it could have been a moonshine operation. But when we first saw that historical marker [20 miles outside of Nashville, 8 years ago with Charlie and their parents, who went to get meat from a respected local butcher for a gathering, and found it when they stopped to get gas] that said \u2018Nelson\u2019s Greenbrier Distillery - producers of the finest TN Whiskeys and fruit brandies,' etc. It was kind of a shock to us because we didn\u2019t know it had been big enough to get a historical marker! Greenbrier is a pretty small town, maybe two or three stoplights\u2026 on what is now known as Old Distillery Road [formerly Longbranch Road]. When we got to the butcher, he told us to look across the street and we saw the old barrel warehouse still standing, and a grain house behind that sitting over the creek, and that the creek was being fed by this original spring, there\u2019s a springhouse still standing, and the original spring is still running! We drank from the spring, of course, and that\u2019s when we knew what we had to do. It was at the Greenbrier Historical Society that we started to find bottles like the one we showed you, and other documents with the Nelson name on it, and that was when we looked at each other and knew what we are here to do. That\u2019s when we found out how big it was - one of the biggest distilleries in the country, certainly the state.\nAnother thing that I found amazing was what you could get away with to advertise in the newspaper. There\u2019s one ad that says something like, \u2018the finest and the purest in the universe.\u2019 That\u2019s such an awesome claim, but\u2026\nAnd then there was the discovery about how much they made. Multiple TN Whiskeys, multiple ryes, different bourbons, corn whiskeys, brandies and a few different gins, and it turns out Charles was one of the first to produce an American style gin.\nCharlie: Charles Nelson\u2019s American Gin.\nAS: Do you have plans to resurrect these other products?\nAndy: Eventually. It will be a little ways down the line. When we have enough inventory and can experiment, expand that portfolio as much as possible. Of course 150 or so years ago this stuff could just be made and we are experimenting and learning the trade\u2026 I mean, there are hillbillys up in the mountains who can do this, it shouldn\u2019t be that complicated.\nAS: Tell me a bit about this business with the Tennessee Whiskey legislation and how you guys are involved.\nAndy: Where we stand is we are in favor of keeping the law as is. We recognize that TN Whiskey is\u2026 the laws that make a bourbon a bourbon, plus made only in the state of TN and undergoing charcoal mellowing and including aging in unused, charred oak barrels. The sticking point for this [possible change in] legislation was the use of these barrels [being able to age in used barrels]. One of the main reasons we are so in favor of keeping the current law, using new barrels, is that it was Charles Nelson, along with George Dickel, ironically enough [Dickel Whiskey is owned by Diageo, one of the companies who are in favor of the change, along with Brown-Forman] who back in the late 1800s went to the state legislature to request that TN Whiskey have a set of standards to differentiate it from Bourbon. So our family has a large part in actually creating what TN Whiskey is known as today. So given that history and heritage and everything, it\u2019s why we\u2019re doing this. We want to keep that alive and not dilute the brand equity to what TN Whiskey has been built up as, not only nationwide, but worldwide. Charlie, you want to chime in on anything else?\nCharlie: Yeah, that\u2019s a big part of it. Also, just keeping the standards is very important! The standards aren\u2019t that high, yet it\u2019s a big challenge getting into the business and into the industry, in general. But new barrels, made in TN, charcoal mellowed, 51% corn, that\u2019s not too much to ask. Aging in used barrels doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you\u2019ll create an inferior product, but it makes it a lot easier to come out with an inferior product\u2026 It\u2019s a slippery slope. If you are allowed to use used barrels and call it 'TN Whiskey', there are a lot of people in the [so-called] moonshine game who could just run their unaged whiskey through a barrel for 10 minutes and call it \u2018TN Whiskey\u2019. I think that would be detrimental to the whole category. Lowering the standards would lower the public\u2019s perception of quality and undermine consumer confidence.\nAS: How close are they to making a decision? I heard things were on hold for a while.\nAndy: It was put to \u2018summer study\u2019 which, for now, is a win for us\u2026 In a lot of cases it will just kind of die there because they just don\u2019t want to address the issue anymore. But if it does get picked up, I don\u2019t even really know what \u2018summer study\u2019 is supposed to mean, it could be another year before it comes up officially. We don\u2019t have our own legislative team. The people who are kind of on our side of this argument [Jack Daniels, btw is one of them] and do have that power are in a lot of ways taking the reins on that. We\u2019re supporting them and throwing as much weight as we can behind it. But we are our own company, we\u2019ve got one other employee\u2026 We have a lot of stuff to take care of in the interim.\nIt was tough to hear the opposition claim \u2018Oh, the little guys are behind us..\u2019\nCharlie: Well, we as \u2018the little guy,\u2019 obviously need to speak up because we are not behind you.\nAndy: The TN Distillers' Guild, which is newly formed, took the position of not being in favor of the change. That says quite a bit in itself.\nI mean, have some pride! What are the two things that come out of TN? Music and whiskey. If you\u2019re allowing your state to dilute one of those things, it\u2019s kind of like, \u2018yeah, whatever.\u2019\nAS: Finally, if you could have a drink with your great-great-great grandfather Charles, what would that be like? What would you ask him or say to him about what you are doing now?\nCharlie: A LOT of things\u2026\nAndy: OK, for example, his obituary talked about what an amazing man he was by all accounts, not just as a business man, but as a person, there\u2019s this example I like to site, \u2018He was a fair and honest man\u2026\nCharlie: \u2018If a man would work for 50 dollars a week but he was worth 100, Charles Nelson would pay him what he was worth and not what he would take.\u2019\nHe had a heart for charity, he was known to give to things that were known as \u2018good for the heart of Nashville.\u2019 Things like Nashville\u2019s first music school was established by him. TN School for the Blind was established by one of his daughters. One of his sons established a medical school that was the first African American medical college, in Nashville. So amazing things that not only he did, but that he instilled in his children\u2026 I mean, for any white Southern person pre-1900 to establish ideas of racial equality is pretty amazing.\nAnd when he died, his wife Louisa ran the distillery and was one of the only women to do so. That\u2019s pretty impressive - a woman running a company pre-1900, a woman from the South, in a male-dominated industry, not just a whiskey company, but one of the largest in the country\u2026 that\u2019s crazy!\nAndy: I\u2019d just be fascinated to absorb his knowledge and spirit, I guess. To me it\u2019s one of those things you can\u2019t learn from taking a class, or learn from something on paper. You meet someone and you gain their knowledge by being around them.\nAmerican Whiskey, Bourbon, News, Spirits, Tennessee WhiskeyAmanda Schuster May 15, 2014 american gin, american whiskey, andy nelson, belle meade, belle meade bourbon, bourbon, brown-forman, charles nelson, charlie nelson, diageo, distilling, drinkwire, family history, george dickel, greenbrier, jack daniel's, nashville, nelson's greenbrier distillery, prohibition, tennessee whiskey, tennessee whiskey distillers' guild, tennessee whiskey legislation, whiskey3 Comments\nGin, Vintage AdsPatrick A.

        "title": "Why Turndown Ratio Matters | Alicat Scientific",
        "raw_content": "Turndown ratio is a measure of the useable range of an instrument, expressed as the full-scale range divided by the minimum point of measure. It indicates how much of the instrument range can produce accurate readings, which is very important when you want to measure or control a very wide flow range without having to change instruments.\nHow to calculate turndown ratio\nConsider a 12\u2033 ruler that is graduated to a quarter of an inch. Since the smallest distance that could be measured is 1/4\u2033, the turndown ratio is 12\u2033/0.25\u2033 = 48 to 1 (48:1). Now, what happens if we noticed that on the same ruler all the graduated lines below 2\u2033 are smudged? The accuracy has not changed, because the distance between marks is the same, but the useable range is now much less. In this case, the turndown ratio would now be 12\u2033/2.0\u2033 = 6:1.Using this smudged ruler, if we needed to measure an object that was probably an inch and a half in length, we could not produce an accurate reading. Instead, we would have to use either a smaller ruler with the same turndown (say, a 6\u2033 ruler with lines smudged below 1\u2033), or the same size ruler with a larger turndown ratio, in this case at least 12:1.\nThe turndown ratio of a flow meter or flow controller is most affected by the device\u2019s signal-to-noise ratio, which results from both the fluid dynamics of the flow measurement technology and the type and quality of the sensor employed. For example, most orifice-plate differential pressure-based flow measurement devices have turndown ratios of 4:1, which indicates that accuracy is not well maintained below 25% of the full-scale flow. By Bernoulli\u2019s Principle, differential pressure is related to the square of the flow velocity within turbulent (non-laminar) flows. Thus, reducing the full-scale flow rate by two reduces the differential pressure by four, and reducing the full-scale flow rate by four reduces the differential pressure by 16. Smaller differential pressures translate to smaller sensor signal strength, and eventually the signals become lost in the signal noise.\nBy contrast, laminar differential pressure-based flow measurement devices maintain a direct linear relationship between differential pressure and flow velocity. This is made possible by wrangling the turbulent flow into laminar channels, within which differential pressure and flow velocity are linearly related, according to Poiseuille\u2019s Equation. Thus, in an Alicat laminar mass flow instrument, reducing the full-scale flow rate by four only reduces the differential pressure by four. This, combined with our sensor technology, allows us to guarantee accuracy in most of our mass flow products to at least 0.5% of the full-scale flow rate, a turndown ratio of 200:1.\nAlicat\u2019s turndown test\nThe following 1-minute video shows the results of Alicat\u2019s recent turndown ratio test. In this test, we use unedited, real-time video to monitor the actual flow rate coming from a 5-slpm mass flow controller. However, instead of pairing this controller with a 5-slpm meter, we paired it with a 50-sccm mass flow meter to see just how low our controller could perform. At full scale, this meter\u2019s range represents only the bottom 1% of the flow controller\u2019s range, a 100:1 turndown. We start the test at a flow rate of 50 sccm, which represents 100:1 turndown for the controller, and then proceed to 5 sccm (1000:1) and 1 sccm (5000:1).\nFor each commanded flow rate in the video, the mass flow controller was able to control the flows to within 0.13 sccm, which is a tremendous feat for a 5000-sccm controller. If you were using a flow controller with a 50:1 turndown ratio, you would need one device to cover 100-5000 sccm, another one to cover 2-100 sccm, and yet another to get the last 1-2 sccm. For the budget conscious, higher turndown ratios mean spending less money to cover wide flow ranges. Higher turndown ratios also allow for greater flexibility when an experiment unexpectedly requires a broader range. When you discover mid-project that you need to go lower than you had anticipated, a high turndown ratio can be a project lifesaver.\nHave questions about turndown ratio?",

Non-identical twins (also known as fraternal twins) are the result of separate fertilised eggs. Non-identical twins are no more alike than any other brothers or sisters, and may be both male, both female, or one of each. Non-identical twins share DNA in common, as in the case of siblings from different births.\nIdentical twins are formed from a single fertilised egg, which went on to split into separate embryos. This means that their DNA is exactly the same.\nZygosity testing, or twin testing, is used to determine whether multiple children from the same birth are genetically identical or not. This twin DNA test only needs cheek buccal cells so samples can be easily and painlessly collected.\nTwins are becoming more common\nMultiple births are becoming more common because of fertility treatments and the fact that women are waiting later to have their babies. In the UK, twins happen in about 1 in every 65 pregnancies (1.5%). This is a big increase from 1984, when 1% of every birth was a multiple birth.\nAfrican\u2013American women are more likely to have twins than any other race. Asian and Native Americans have the lowest rates of twins.\nIn total, around 12,000 sets of twins are born in the UK every year. Non-identical (or fraternal) twins are more common: two-thirds of all twins are non-identical and one-third are identical.\nIdentical twins don\u2019t run in families\nIdentical twins appear to be a random occurrence. There\u2019s no evidence that being from a family with identical multiples has any impact on the odds of having identical twins.\nNon-identical twins do run in families\nHeredity on the mother\u2019s side increases the odds of a couple having non-identical (or fraternal) twins. Research has found that having non-identical twins in a mother\u2019s immediate family may double the chances of conceiving non-identical twins. This is because a certain gene predisposes some women to hyperovulation where more than one egg is released during each menstrual cycle.\nTwins really do skip a generation\nThe myth about twins skipping a generation is actually based on some truth. If a man inherits the hyperovulation gene from his mother (see #3), he may pass this gene on to his daughter. His daughter, in turn, is then more likely to release more than one egg when she ovulates and therefore could conceive non-identical twins. The twins have therefore skipped a generation.\nIdentical twins don\u2019t have identical fingerprints\nIf they share the same DNA, surely identical twins must have identical fingerprints? Well, surprisingly not. Identical twins start out with the same fingerprints when they are conceived, but as the foetuses develop in the womb they are affected differently by small changes in the womb environment, such as fluctuations of hormone levels. In addition, as the twins start to move and touch the amniotic sac, unique ridges and lines are formed that result in different fingerprints. This is thought to occur around weeks 6\u201313 of the pregnancy.\nIn the same way, identical twins also don\u2019t have identical freckles. The pattern of freckles and moles on the skin is caused by random mutations and will vary between identical twins.\nTwins could have different dads\nThis is due to a medical phenomenon known as superfoetation. It occurs when a pregnant woman continues to ovulate and releases an egg a few weeks into her pregnancy. The second egg is fertilised, and the woman is then pregnant with two babies simultaneously.\nUsually, when a woman becomes pregnant, several biological processes happen to prevent her from getting pregnant a second time. Hormones are released that halt ovulation, a \u2018mucus plug\u2019 develops in the cervix to prevent sperm from traveling to the uterus, and the lining of the uterus changes, making it hard for another embryo to implant.\nSuperfoetation may go undetected because the two foetuses are so close in age that they may be considered twins. It is extremely rare in humans but is claimed to be more prevalent in animals such as rodents, rabbits, horses and sheep.\nTwins are more common in certain countries\nHigh rates of twins are found throughout Central Africa. With 27.9 twins per 1000 births (2.8%), Benin has the highest national average.\nOn the other hand, the twinning rate in Asia and Latin America is very low: often less than 8\u201310 per 1000 births (0.8\u20131%).\nMirror twins have reverse asymmetric features\nMirror image twins account for about one-fourth of all identical twins. In these rare cases, identical twins develop directly facing each other, meaning they become exact reflections of one another. If one twin is right handed the other twin is left handed, they may have birthmarks on opposite sides of their body and can even have hair that whorls in reverse directions.\nMirror image twins are thought to occur when the twins split from one fertilised egg later than usual. This can be over a week up to 12 days after conception and the two identical halves develop into separate individuals who are genetically identical. A fertilised egg that splits after 12 days would likely result in conjoined twins.\nTall women are more likely to have twins\nTaller women apparently have more insulin-like growth factor (IGF): a protein that is released from the liver to stimulate growth in the shaft of longer bones. Higher levels of IGF results in increased sensitivity of the ovaries, thus increasing a woman\u2019s chance of ovulating. According to Dr Gary Steinman, an attending physician at Long Island Jewish Medical Center, the more IGF a woman has, the greater chance she has of becoming pregnant with twins, because IGF \u201cgoverns the rate of spontaneous twinning\u201d. In a previous study, Dr Steinman also found that women who eat dairy are five times more likely to have twins. This has been put down to levels of IGF in cow\u2019s milk.\nTwins have a secret language\nA phenomenon known as cryptophasia (from the Greek for \u2018secret\u2019 and \u2018speech\u2019) describes a language developed by twins in early childhood which only they understand. Cryptophasia is thought to occur in up to 50% of identical or non-identical twins.\nThe secret language is formed when two very close babies are learning how to speak a real language alongside one another and naturally often play and communicate with each other. As such, it is more common among twins because they are more likely to be around each other and developing at the same rate; although the phenomenon can also sporadically occur between two babies who are not twins. The language consists of inverted words and onomatopoeic expressions, and often disappears soon after childhood once the children have learned a real language.\nZygosity twin testing is used to determine whether twins are genetically identical or not.

        "raw_content": "Nine survivors remain!\nSince women\u2019s gymnastics team selections have become somewhat like a game show or beauty pageant, I figured we might as well treat it as such! Originally we had ten \u201csurvivors\u201d of the world selection process, but unfortunately it\u2019s already been reduced to nine since Samantha Peszek has decided to drop out of contention, opting for shoulder surgery instead. I was disappointed to hear this, as I honestly don\u2019t see why a torn labrum (a very common injury for gymnasts that many have without even knowing it) should keep her from doing her best on at least beam and floor. She certainly didn\u2019t seem to be hampered at USA\u2019s in any way, and looked as strong and confident as ever. It sounds as if she\u2019s chosen to have the surgery now to be fully ready to begin her NCAA season at UCLA next fall \u2013 and become yet another potential world class all-around gymnast who never got a chance to show what she was capable of. She should be fighting for an all-around medal at the world championships or Olympic Games, not competing in the NCAA with gymnasts half her caliber. Although she\u2019s made comments that she \u201chasn\u2019t ruled out\u201d the Olympics in 2012, all of us who\u2019ve heard NCAA gymnasts say that time and time and time again know good and well that\u2019s not going to happen. My guess is we will never see Samantha Peszek on the world stage again.\nHere are the gymnasts who will be attending the second selection camp September 30th \u2013 October 4th and vying for the four available spots on the world team:\nKytra Hunter\nCassie Whitcomb\nMacquenzie Caquatto\nOften times it is fairly obvious at this point which gymnasts are likely going to be named to the team, or at the very least, all but one. This time it\u2019s a bit different though\u2026I honestly can\u2019t say for sure which four I think they\u2019re going to take. I originally would have said that every gymnast on the list except for maybe Cassie Whitcomb has a legitimate shot, but now I\u2019ve heard rumors that Cassie was surprisingly good at the first camp. After watching her at USA\u2019s, I really didn\u2019t see what she could possibly offer to a world team, but I\u2019ve learned over the years that rumors about these mysterious camps have a strange way of being true. Although I STILL doubt she will be picked for the team, Marta does seem to have a bit of a bias towards Mary Lee Tracy\u2019s athletes, probably as a result of what they went through together in with the \u201cMag 7\u201d in 1996.\nSo who\u2019s going to make it? I do think that two spots are all but secured \u2013 Bridget Sloan and Rebecca Bross. Bridget simply has to be a lock \u2013 she\u2019s become the leader of the U.S. team this year, is the new national champion, and is stronger and more confident than ever. She deserves a shot to go for an all-around medal at worlds, which is entirely possible if she keeps her cool. And although Bross placed behind Ivana Hong at nationals, I feel sure they would choose Bross as an all-arounder over Hong. She needs this experience, because she is undoubtedly going to be a major player for the U.S. over the next three years. I think she does have a shot at an all-around medal, but even if she goes out and makes some mistakes (as she did at nationals), the experience will be worth it to prepare her for the rest of the quadrennium.\nAs for Hong, I STILL don\u2019t see it. She\u2019s a clean and polished gymnast, but for me, she still lacks too much. I do like her Yurchenko double full, but as with 99% of the U.S. athletes, she doesn\u2019t have a second vault as far as I know. I\u2019ve never liked her bars. It completely lacks swing. She has one release move that has absolutely no height whatsoever, she still doesn\u2019t know how to pirouette in a handstand, and her double layout dismount is a very poor choice for her. Her beam is good and would certainly be the best argument for placing her on the team, especially considering the fact that her D-score of 6.2 at nationals was three tenths higher than the next highest D-score awarded. And I will admit that since Liukin and Peszek have both dropped out of contention, Ivana\u2019s chances for competing as a beam specialist have gone WAY up. And as for floor, well, it would be a sad day if tumbling as weak as Ivana\u2019s would ever be in contention for medaling on the world stage.\nI\u2019m also not convinced that Chellsie Memmel is going to be ready. If anyone could prove that statement wrong, it\u2019s Chellsie, but she was quite a ways away from looking in top shape at USA\u2019s, and that was just on one event. Bars is always questionable for her because of her shoulder, and I don\u2019t know that her body could quickly get into a healthy condition to do a world class floor routine either. I would LOVE to see her make it, but I\u2019m not sure how realistic that is. And as for Jana Bieger, her 5.8 D-score on floor was actually tied with Sloan and Bross for the highest, and a tenth higher than Peszek, Williams, and Hunter. Her bars D-score of 6.1 was the second highest behind Bross, and her beam D-score was the second highest behind Hong. So she DOES have some strong difficulty scores, but of course her execution scores have let a little to be desired in the past couple of years. But since Jana has been received well internationally (2nd AA at 2006 worlds), would Marta consider using these worlds to give Jana one more shot to prove herself? I think that would surprise a lot of people, but I think she may have more of a chance than people realize. She does have THREE events that could at least be considered, and if she could learn to point her toes, she could be right in the mix.\nNext let\u2019s take a look at a few videos of some of these contenders from USA\u2019s that you may not have seen\u2026\nBy amgym|2009-09-17T00:17:19+00:00September 17th, 2009|Categories: Andy's Angle, Blogs|Tags: U.S. Women's world Team 2009|0 Comments",

        "raw_content": "Lenovo's Tab 4 8 & 10 Plus Android Tablets Up for Pre-Order\nLenovo announced a slew of new tablets back at Mobile World Congress in February, including the Tab 4 8 Plus and Tab 4 10 Plus. These are somewhat mid-range tablets, that are under $300. And now, they have finally launched in the US. Surprisingly, only B&H Photo has put them up for pre-order at this point, they aren't even available on Lenovo's own website. Lenovo's website only shows the older Tab 4 models. The Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus is going for $229 and the Tab 4 10 Plus is priced at $279.\nAs Lenovo has done before, these two tablets launch in the US with toned-down specs. Both tablets are available with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, which is lower-end than what was launched in India earlier this month, where they both had 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. Now there is micro SD card slots on both models, so storage isn't a huge issue, but that extra gigabyte of RAM would definitely be useful. Both sport 1920x1200 resolution displays, and are powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 625 processor. This processor is pretty good with battery life, so even while watching movies and such on these tablets, battery life should still be pretty good. Additionally, Quick Charge 3.0 is available, and these are LTE tablets. They are not tied to a carrier, so you can use them on whichever carrier you prefer, like Google's Project Fi.\nLenovo is launching these tablets with Android 7.1.1 Nougat. Which actually isn't the latest version of Android, since Google launched Android 8.0 Oreo just last month. However, considering these are mid-range tablets, and were announced way back in February, it's not surprising to see them launching with Android Nougat. Which is still fairly recent - and we've seen Lenovo launch products with much more out-of-date versions of Android in the past. These are both up for pre-order right now on B&H Photo, and as per usual, the website does not mention when these tablets will launch. But they should be in the next few weeks. When these two do officially launch, they should also be available at other retailers like Amazon and even Lenovo's website, as well as a few others.\nBuy the Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus\nBuy the Lenovo Tab 4 10 Plus\nSource: B&H Photo Via: The Android Soul\nAndroid NewsLenovoAndroid Tablets",

Here is what it looks like. STAFF VIDEO BY BOB BIELK STAFF VIDEO BY BOB BIELK\nA Republic Services garbage truck. The company is suing Middletown after it chose another provider to handle township-wide trash pickup.(Photo11: Mark Henle/The Republic)\nA lawsuit from a losing bidder that sought to invalidate Middletown's multimillion dollar agreement with its first-ever township-wide trash collector has been dismissed, according to a court filing.\nThe case was settled, per the Monmouth County Superior Court order that terminated the case on Feb. 2.\nNeither attorneys for the plaintiff, Republic Services, nor the defendants would identify the terms of the settlement. Ross Lewin, who represented Republic Services, said there was a confidentiality clause blocking public disclosure.\nMIDDLETOWN: Republic Services sues township over $21.7M trash deal\nBELL WORKS: Complex gets approval for 200-room rooftop hotel\nHowever, the township's attorney, Brian Nelson, did provide the following statement after the Asbury Park Press asked about payments or other commitments made by Middletown.\n\u201cThe complaint was voluntarily dismissed against Middletown without any payments being made or any changes to the contract that was properly awarded by the Township.\u201d\nWant to know what happens to your trash after you roll it to the curb? Watch the short video above to see how garbage is processed in Monmouth County.\nBEST PIE: Which Shore pizzeria makes the best pie? Take our poll\nThe genesis of the lawsuit stems from the township's decision to overhaul the trash collection system in Middletown, implementing a new, uniform way of doing things on Jan. 1.\nThe township chose Central Jersey Waste and Recycling, which operates in Middletown under the name Solterra, in September 2017 to be the sole provider of trash service in town. The company's five-year, $21.7 million contract was the best and lowest bid, according to the township committee.\nYOUR MONEY: NJ customers will see lower electric bills\nRepublic Services, whose losing bid was slightly higher, alleged that township officials violated the Open Public Meetings Act by not deliberating on the bids during an open public meeting. The township committee, the trash hauler argues, also accepted a bid that was incomplete and omitted key considerations.\nUnder the old system, Republic Services was retained by the town to provide trash pickup services in the now-defunct garbage district that covered about three in every five households in the township. Everybody else made their own arrangements.\nBy banding the entire township together, the committee believed that it could negotiate a better deal for everyone. Township administrator Tony Mercantante said that 86 percent of Middletown homeowners will save money through the deal with Central Jersey.\nThe lawyer for Central Jersey Waste could not be immediately reached for comment.\nTICKET-FIXING: Former part-time Middletown municipal judge admits to scheme\n2018 Winter Olympics: Pyeongchang Opening Ceremony\nErin Hamlin leads the delegation from the United States during the opening ceremony for the Pyeongchang 2018 Olympic Winter Games, Feb. 9, 2018.

        "raw_content": "Apple Introduces iChat AV and iSight\nVideo Conferencing for \u201cThe Rest of Us\u201d\nWWDC 2003, San Francisco\u2014June 23, 2003\u2014Apple\u00ae today introduced a major breakthrough in video conferencing\u2014the iChat\u2122 AV software application and the iSight\u2122 digital video camera. Together they enable high-quality video conferences between two Mac\u00ae users over any broadband connection, revolutionizing the way people communicate with business associates, colleagues in education, friends and family. iChat AV also features audio conferences even over dial-up connections to the Internet. iChat AV requires no set up or configuration beyond installing the software and plugging in any FireWire\u00ae video camera and microphone. Buddies with audio or video conferencing capability automatically show up in your buddy list, and initiating a video or audio conference is as simple as pushing one button. iChat AV is a key feature of the upcoming release of Mac\u00ae OS X version 10.3 \u201cPanther,\u201d and is available as a public beta today for Mac OS X version 10.2 \u201cJaguar.\u201d\nWhile iChat AV works with any FireWire video camera, Apple\u2019s iSight digital video camera was designed for video conferencing, delivering sharp images and clear sound through its built-in, dual-element noise-suppressing microphone. Smaller and lighter than most cell phones, iSight has a unique center mount design which allows video conversations to be far more engaging and natural. iSight is available today and demonstrates Apple\u2019s unique ability to create a tightly integrated hardware and software solution.\n\u201ciChat AV is a major breakthrough in communications\u2014users can now video conference with their business associates, colleagues in education, friends and family with just the push of a button,\u201d said Steve Jobs, Apple\u2019s CEO. \u201ciChat AV and iSight truly offer video conferencing for the rest of us, and since they were designed with Apple\u2019s legendary ease-of-use, anyone can set them up in under five minutes.\u201d\nBuilding on the success of the iChat instant messaging application in Mac OS X, iChat AV extends instant communication to the next level with the world\u2019s best personal video conferencing application. With high-quality, full screen, full motion video over broadband, crystal clear audio over 56K modem and a familiar easy-to-use interface, iChat AV makes natural conversations over the Internet immediate and effortless. Automatic display of video and audio icons within the familiar iChat buddy list instantly identifies buddies with video or audio conferencing capabilities so conversations can begin at the click of a button from the office, home or anywhere.\nFeaturing Apple\u2019s legendary design and ease-of-use, iSight is a small, light and incredibly portable aluminum alloy camera that features a custom designed lens with auto-focus and a high-end CCD sensor to provide high-resolution images and full-motion video at up to 30 frames per second. iSight includes an integrated microphone that suppresses ambient noise for crystal-clear digital audio. With its on-board processor, iSight automatically adjusts color, white balance, sharpness and contrast to provide high-quality images with accurate color reproduction in any lighting conditions.\niSight is designed to be center-mounted on the top of any computer screen and uses its integrated tilt and rotate mechanism to easily position the camera for natural, face-to-face video conferencing. iSight is smaller and lighter than most cell phones and extremely portable. With all audio, video and power provided by a single FireWire cable, simply clipping the compact iSight camera to any PowerBook\u00ae G4 or iBook\u00ae for convenient on-the-go video conferencing, makes it easy for travelers to keep in touch with family, friends and business associates while they are on the road.\nThe time-limited iChat AV public beta is available immediately for free download at www.apple.com/ichat, and requires Mac OS X version 10.2.5 \u201cJaguar.\u201d Video conferencing requires a PowerPC 600 MHz G3 or greater Macintosh\u00ae computer. The final version of iChat AV will be included as a key feature of the upcoming release of Mac OS X version 10.3 \u201cPanther\u201d and will also be downloadable from Apple for $29.95 (US) as a standalone upgrade for users of Mac OS X v10.2.5 \u201cJaguar\u201d or later.\nThe iSight video camera is available today through the Apple Store\u00ae (www.apple.com), at Apple\u2019s retail stores and Apple Authorized Resellers for a suggested retail price of $149 (US). iSight requires the iChat AV public beta and Mac OS X v10.2.5 \u201cJaguar\u201d or later.\nMac OS X v10.2 \u201cJaguar\u201d requires a minimum of 128MB of memory and is designed to run on the following Apple products: eMac\u2122, iMac\u00ae, iBook, Power Macintosh\u00ae G3, Power Mac\u00ae G4 and any PowerBook introduced after May 1998.\nApple, the Apple logo, Mac, Mac OS, Macintosh, iChat, iSight, FireWire, PowerBook, iBook, Apple Store, eMac, iMac, Power Macintosh and Power Mac are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Apple.

Since this past August, we have been sharing the three competing shortlisted projects \u2013 OMA\u2019s Three Villages, Rocco Design Architects\u2019 Cultural Connect, and Foster\u2019s City Park \u2013 and your comments have sparked great discussion concerning the advantages and disadvantages of each. The selection process for the cultural district was quite unique as the three projects, that were selected from 12 proposals, then entered a public consultation exercise. For three months, the people of the West Kowloon district had the opportunity to review and comment on the projects, which then had a strong impact on the panel\u2019s final decision.\nFoster\u2019s proposal is organized around a 23 hectare public par, with cultural buildings scattered along the edges to become a natural extension of the local community. Foster commented, \u201cThis is fantastic news. I have been travelling to Hong Kong for more than 32 years, since the Hongkong Bank first brought us here. This project offers an extraordinary opportunity \u2013 it is unprecedented in its scale, scope and vision. City Park will be the catalyst to transform the city locally and regionally, as well as on the world stage. Our design is rooted in Hong Kong\u2019s urban DNA, the distinctive character that makes it such a dynamic city. There really is no other project like it!\u201d\nBe sure to read more about Foster\u2019s proposal on AD here.\nArticles Urban PlanningAwarded CompetitionsNorman FosterChinaHong KongArchitecture NewsWest Kowloon Cultural District Authority\nCite: Karen Cilento. \"West Kowloon Cultural District Selects City Park / Foster + Partners\" 12 Mar 2011.

        "raw_content": "ARTBA Foundation Announces 2017 Transportation Development Hall of Fame Honorees\nHome/Press Releases/ARTBA Foundation Announces 2017 Transportation Development Hall of Fame Honorees\n(WASHINGTON)\u2014A Massachusetts transportation contractor, a Virginia-based engineer, and the long-time chief of the federal Bureau of Public Roads are the 2017 inductees for the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) Foundation\u2019s \u201cTransportation Development Hall of Fame.\u201d\nLaunched in 2010, the \u201cHall of Fame\u201d honors individuals or families from the public and private sectors who have made extraordinary contributions to U.S. transportation development during their careers. A committee of judges comprised of construction industry journalists annually reviews nominees in two categories:\nTransportation Design & Construction Industry Innovators: Honors the men and women who discovered or created a \u201cgame changing\u201d product or process that significantly advanced transportation design, construction and/or safety. It seeks to honor the original\nTransportation Design & Construction Industry Leaders (Individuals or Families): Recognizes men, women and families who have made significant contributions\u2014beyond just having successful businesses or careers\u2014that have notably helped advance the interests and image of the transportation design, construction and safety industry.\nThe 2017 class includes:\nKen Rezendes, chairman, K.R. Rezendes, Inc., Assonet, Mass.\nA straight shooter with a \u201ccan do\u201d attitude, Ken Rezendes began his business in 1956, with small excavating jobs and his 1949 Ford dump truck. Family-owned and operated, the business has grown to become one of the commonwealth\u2019s most successful firms specializing in highway construction and reconstruction, water, sewer and utility work, and complete building and site excavation services. The firm has 100 employees.\nHis roster of leadership positions with national and state construction organizations is distinguished. It includes serving as ARTBA chairman (1994), senior vice chairman, first vice chairman, northeastern region vice chairman, and Contractors Division president. He spent a decade as an ARTBA Foundation trustee and chaired several association task forces on key financial and operational issues. As the co-chair of the ARTBA Political Action Committee for the last 20 years, he\u2019s helped raise more than $1 million. At the state level, Rezendes served as the 1983-84 chairman of the Construction Industries of Massachusetts.\nHis commitment to giving back to his community is equally impressive. He established the Gladys M. Rezendes Memorial Scholarship in memory of his late wife and has awarded nearly $200,000 in scholarships to high school students. Rezendes was an executive member of the Charlton Memorial Hospital President\u2019s Council in Fall River, Mass., and is a current member of the Board of Directors for the Fall River Boys & Girls Club.\nMax Sproles (1934-2015)\nA registered professional engineer in multiple states and D.C., Max Sproles began his career in 1958 at the federal Bureau of Public Roads\u2014today\u2019s Federal Highway Administration. He later held several key management positions with the North Carolina State Highway Commission. In 1970, he joined the Association of American Railroads (AAR). As AAR\u2019s executive director for highway-rail programs, he played a key leadership role in the passage of a 1973 law that funded upgraded rail crossings \u2013 estimated to have helped save 1,000 lives annually. He later spent 10 years as a vice president with Deleuw Cather and another decade with Frederic R. Harris. He also was a senior vice president with the international infrastructure company, AECOM.\nSproles was a fixture at ARTBA\u2019s annual meeting for more than 40 years. As 1997 ARTBA chairman, he met with President Bill Clinton to highlight the importance of increasing federal highway and public transit investment as part of the next reauthorization bill.\nHis other volunteer ARTBA leadership roles included: senior vice chairman, regional vice chairman, co-chairman of the Russian Project Advisory Committee, Planning & Design Division president, and chairman of the Railroads Advisory Council. Sproles spent more than two decades as a member of the AASHTO-AGC-ARTBA Joint Committee. Until his passing, he also was the long-time chairman of the ARTBA Tellers Committee, which was responsible for counting the votes and certifying the annual election results for ARTBA\u2019s officers and directors.\nSproles received the 1998 ARTBA Award\u2014the association\u2019s highest honor\u2014in recognition of his leadership in the passage of the June 1998 TEA-21 surface transportation law. He was elected a fellow of the Institute of Transportation Engineers and the American Society of Civil Engineers. Sproles served as a member of Virginia Tech\u2019s Civil and Environmental Engineering Alumni Board and the department\u2019s advisory board, as well as the university\u2019s Center for Transportation Research Advisory Board.\nThomas MacDonald (1881-1957)\nMacDonald was called the \u201cman of the century\u201d in highway development and his pioneering 35 years as head of the Bureau of Public Roads under seven U.S. presidents were critical to creating and refining today\u2019s federal highway program that gave Americans unprecedented mobility.\nA civil engineer, he became Iowa\u2019s chief engineer in 1913 and was a key figure in the development of the 1916 Federal-Aid Road Act, a landmark law that provided the basis for the federal government\u2019s leadership in highway construction. On July 1, 1919, he was appointed \u201cChief of the Bureau.\u201d His title and the agency name would change several times, but he would retain the nickname \u201cThe Chief\u201d until his retirement in 1953.\nEarly in his tenure, MacDonald revised the program and saw enactment of 1921 legislation that incorporated his innovation of limiting federal funds to a designated federal-aid system. His work in the 1930s and 1940s helped establish the foundation of the U.S. Interstate Highway System. In total, he supervised the creation of 3.5 million miles of highways.\nBy Eileen Houlihan| 2017-12-18T10:05:00+00:00\tDecember 18th, 2017|Press Releases|Comments Off on ARTBA Foundation Announces 2017 Transportation Development Hall of Fame Honorees",

        "raw_content": "severe150.jpg\nPhoto by Ormond Loomis\nDuff Severe\nWestern Saddlemaker\nDuff Severe was born in 1925 in the small Mormon town of Oakley, Idaho. His father and grandfather were ranchers, and Duff developed an interest in leatherwork early on. \"They needed articles on the ranch,\" he said. \"You just had to make your own things or go without.... I remember when I was about \u2014 must have been about 14, when I really observed \u2014 not only my father, but other old western cowboys that'd take these old bloody, hairy hides, and they'd take the hair off and clean 'em up. Pretty soon they'd have something beautiful braided out of it. It really impressed me, and I thought, that's something I'd really want to learn. So, I learned what I could from those old fellows.... All my life, I've been trying to add to what I learned from them.\"\nDuring World War II, Severe served in the Navy and was stationed in the San Francisco Bay area, not far from the saddle shop of the legendary Luis Ortega in Walnut Creek, California. As a working cowboy and saddle maker who had moved with his family to Oregon, Severe was quite familiar with the quality of Ortega's craftsmanship, but also knew that Ortega was very guarded about the specifics of his rawhide knowledge. In his free time, Severe went to see Ortega and talked to him about his experiences as a buckaroo (an anglicized form of the Spanish word vaquero, meaning cowboy) in the early 1900s, but was careful not to mention rawhide braiding because he thought Ortega might put away his work if he did. After each visit, Severe went back to the base and practiced what he saw Ortega doing, and over time he learned about Ortega's methods and technique without having to ask. Years later, Severe nominated Ortega for a National Heritage Fellowship, which he received in 1986.\nThough Severe's interactions with Ortega were limited, Ortega had a profound influence. From San Francisco, Severe went to Hawaii and was at Pearl Harbor when it was attacked. He fought on Guadalcanal and was aboard the USS Helena when it was sunk. In 1946, he apprenticed himself to the Hamley Saddle Company in Pendleton, Oregon. He spent 10 years with that firm learning his trade, then went into business with his brother Bill, who also had worked at Hamley. Bill learned to build saddle trees, and Duff specialized in making the saddle on the tree. Severe saddles have an international reputation; orders have come in from as far away as Australia.\nOver the years, Severe became renowned for his skill at braiding horsehair and rawhide. He also applied these skills to decorating bottles and creating jewelry, using the same basic knots found in horse gear. However, to enhance the effect, he often dyed the rawhide strips with laundry dyes.\nSevere was willing to accept apprentices who wanted to learn saddlemaking, but resisted teaching them to braid. After receiving the National Heritage Fellowship in 1982, he realized that his knowledge of rawhide braiding might die with him, and decided to take his nephew, Randy Severe, as an apprentice. Randy has become a skilled braider in his own right, and has devoted himself to helping to preserve the tradition of rawhide work.",

ADMINISTRATION FOR CHILDREN\u2019S SERVICES \u2013 Supreme Court of United States\n54 A.D.3d 1032 (2008)\n865 N.Y.S.2d 114\nIn the Matter of JELANI B., an Infant.\nADMINISTRATION FOR CHILDREN\u2019S SERVICES, Petitioner; MARLON B., Respondent.\nALLAN D. SHAFTER, Nonparty Appellant. (Proceeding No. 1.)\nIn the Matter of CHANIKA B., an Infant.\nNot in source.\nAppellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.\nMastro, J.P., Skelos, Covello and Leventhal, JJ., concur.\nOrdered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.\nWith regard to the allegation of sexual abuse, the petitioner submitted evidence to the effect that, on an unspecified date, the subject children and the respondent father were lying on a bed together watching television, and the child Chanika B. fell asleep. She awoke some time thereafter to find the father\u2019s hand on her buttocks. She testified at the fact-finding hearing that the father placed his hand on her buttocks underneath her clothing, although evidence in the record indicated that she had earlier reported that the father touched her on top of her clothing. On at least one occasion, she denied that the incident had 13 occurred. It is undisputed that this was an isolated occurrence, and that no similar incident had occurred previously or since, as of the time of the fact-finding hearing.\nFamily Court Act \u00df 1012 defines an abused child, in pertinent part, as \u201ca child less than eighteen years of age whose parent or other person legally responsible for his care . . . commits, or allows to be committed an offense against such child defined in article one hundred thirty of the penal law\u201d (Family Ct Act \u00df 1012 [e] [iii]). Under Penal Law \u00df 130.00, sexual contact is defined as \u201cany touching of the sexual or other intimate parts of a person not married to the actor for the purpose of gratifying sexual desire of either party. It includes the touching of the actor by the victim, as well as the touching of the victim by the actor, whether directly or through clothing\u201d (Penal Law \u00df 130.00 [3]).\nUnder the particular facts of this case, the petitioner failed to establish by a preponderance of the evidence that Chanika B. was sexually abused by the father (see Family Ct Act \u00df 1046 [b] [i]). The element of intent to obtain sexual gratification (see Penal Law \u00df 130.00 [3]), the only element in dispute here, may be inferred from the totality of the circumstances (see Matter of Raymond M., 13 AD3d 377, 378 [2004]; see also Matter of Kryzstof K., 283 AD2d 431, 432 [2001]). Here, contrary to the petitioner\u2019s contention, the Family Court properly declined to make such an inference (cf. Matter of A.G., 253 AD2d 318, 325-326 [1999]; compare Matter of Kenny O., 276 AD2d 271, 272 [2000]; Matter of Xheenan N., 273 AD2d 50 [2000]).\nThe Family Court also properly dismissed the petition alleging that the child Jelani B. was derivatively abused or neglected. \u201c[P]roof of the abuse or neglect of one child shall be admissible evidence on the issue of the abuse or neglect of any other child of . . . the respondent\u201d (Family Ct Act \u00df 1046 [a] [i]). \u201c`Even in the absence of direct evidence of actual abuse or neglect of a second child, a derivative finding of neglect should be made where the evidence as to the directly abused or neglected child demonstrates such an impaired level of parental judgment as to create a substantial risk of harm for any child in their care, thereby making such a child neglected under Family Court Act \u00df 1012 (f) (i) (B)'\u201d (Matter of Ramsay M., 17 AD3d 678, 679 [2005], quoting Matter of Brittney C., 242 AD2d 533, 534 [1997]). \u201cThe focus of the inquiry to determine whether derivative neglect is present is whether the evidence of abuse or neglect of one child indicates a fundamental defect in the parent\u2019s understanding of the duties of parenthood\u201d (Matter of Dutchess County Dept. of Social Servs. v Douglas E., 191 AD2d 694, 694 14 [1993]; see Matter of Andrew B.-L., 43 AD3d 1046, 1047 [2007]; Matter of Diamond K., 31 AD3d 553, 554 [2006]; Matter of Maithsa Edourd S., 27 AD3d 475, 476 [2006]; Matter of Jasmine A., 18 AD3d 546, 549 [2005]). \u201cAlthough Family Court Act \u00df 1046 (a) (i) allows evidence of abuse or neglect of one sibling to be considered in determining whether other children in the household were abused or neglected, the statute does not mandate a finding of derivative neglect\u201d (Matter of Shawndel M., 33 AD3d 1006, 1007 [2006] [citations omitted]).\nAbsent a finding that Chanika B. was sexually abused, there was no basis in the record for a finding that Jelani B. was derivatively abused or neglected based on the incident the petitioner alleged to constitute sexual abuse. Additionally, under the particular facts of this case, the circumstances giving rise to the Family Court\u2019s determination that Chanika B. was a neglected child, a single, isolated incident wherein the father struck Chanika B. once on the nose with his open hand, did not demonstrate such an impaired level of parental judgment as to create a substantial risk of harm for Jelani B. and make him a neglected child under Family Court Act \u00df 1012 (f) (i) (B) (see generally Matter of Ramsay M., 17 AD3d 678 [2005]; Matter of Dutchess County Dept. of Social Servs. [Noreen K.], 242 AD2d 533, 534 [1997]). Accordingly, the Family Court properly dismissed the petition alleging that Jelani B. was derivatively abused or neglected.",

A meeting was quickly organized and facilitated by Austin Voices with AISD trustees and Austin City Council member Greg Casar. Over 100 gathered on a summer evening at Hart to discuss the vital importance of after school programs, both for students and parents. Notes from the meeting were sent to City C ouncil members, while AVEY worked to gather information district-wide on gaps in after school funding. A plan was produced that funded all but 10 Title 1 campuses.\nIn August, AVEY took parents and students from Hart and several other campuses to advocate for funding support at a City Council meeting. As a result of the impassioned speeches by parents and students, Council members agreed to fill the funding gap for 2016-17.\nWhile there is more work to be done to assure that every campus has sustainable funding, Hart parents and students can be proud of what they achieved.\n(Update: In summer, 2017, Austin Voices advocated, along with other local groups, to increase city support for after school programming, resulting in an additional $950,000 in support for 20 AISD campuses, including many of those AVEY serves.)",

        "raw_content": "Foreword by: Robert Ellsberg\nAfterword by: John C. Cavadini\nImprint: Christian Classics\nMore Biography, History, Spirituality\nDorothy Day\u2019s unpretentious account of the life of St. Th\u00e9r\u00e8se of Lisieux sheds light on the depth of Day\u2019s Catholic spirituality and illustrates why Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s simplicity and humility are so vital for today. Whether you are called to the active life like Day or a more hidden existence like Th\u00e9r\u00e8se, you will discover that these paths have much in common and can lead you to a love that has the power to transform you in ways that are unexpected and consequential.\nNow back in print, this short biography of St. Th\u00e9r\u00e8se of Lisieux by Dorothy Day expresses the surprising yet profound connection between Day\u2014the founder of the Catholic Worker movement who was praised by Pope Francis for her passion for justice and dedication to her faith\u2014and the beloved saint best known for her Little Way.\nWhen Day first read St. Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s autobiography, The Story of a Soul in 1928, she called it \u201cpious pap.\u201d At the time, Day\u2014a social activist who had been living a bohemian lifestyle\u2014had only recently been baptized a Catholic. Some twenty-five years later, Day\u2019s perspective on Th\u00e9r\u00e8se had so completely changed that she was inspired to write this biography. She did not find it an easy task: \u201cEvery time I sit down to write that book on the Little Flower I am blocked. . . . I am faced with the humiliating fact that I can write only about myself, a damning fact.\u201d But she persisted, and despite numerous rejections eventually found a publisher for it in 1960. She wrote in the Preface: \u201cIn these days of fear and trembling of what man has wrought on earth in destructiveness and hate, Th\u00e9r\u00e8se is the saint we need.\u201d\nWritten originally for nonbelievers or those unaware of Th\u00e9r\u00e8se, the book reflects how Day came to appreciate Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s Little Way, not as an abstract concept, but as a spirituality that she had already been living. The Catholic Worker, which she cofounded with Peter Maurin, was dedicated to feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless. Day\u2019s life, like Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s, was filled with all the humble, self-effacing jobs that were a part of this work. She found in Th\u00e9r\u00e8se a kindred spirit, one who saw these simple hidden tasks as the way to heaven. \u201cWe want to grow in love but do not know how. Love is a science, a knowledge, and we lack it,\u201d Day wrote.\nJust as Day had a conversion of heart about the Little Way, you, too, can be changed by Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s simple, yet profound spirituality.\nDorothy Day\u2019s cause for canonization moved forward when Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan, archbishop of New York, opened a canonical inquiry of her life.\nIn his speech to the United States Congress in September of 2015, Pope Francis spoke about Dorothy Day as one of four figures who embodied the best of the American spirit. \u201cHer social activism, her passion for justice and for the cause of the oppressed, were inspired by the Gospel, her faith, and the example of the saints.\u201d\n\"A vital legacy for the Catholic Worker Movement.\"\n\"Dorothy Day\u2019s mature assimilation of Th\u00e9r\u00e8se of Lisieux\u2019s spirituality is a vital legacy for the Catholic Worker Movement and for anyone whose life is dedicated to working for peace and justice.\"\nJames Allaire\n\"Th\u00e9r\u00e8se may well have found her most adept and significant student.\"\n\"Dorothy Day may not be remembered as one of Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s greatest biographers, but in Day, Th\u00e9r\u00e8se may well have found her most adept and significant student. On both a personal and a social level, she embraced the implications of Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s most famous words, 'All is grace.'\"\nFrom the foreword by Robert Ellsberg\nEditor-in-chief of Orbis Books\nand former managing editor of The Catholic Worker\n\"A book by a saint of our day.\"\n\"I feel honored to be able to pay this small bit of homage to a book by a saint of our day, Dorothy Day, whose love made her challenge the lie of what she always called \u2018this filthy rotten system,\u2019 and enabled her to see deeply enough into another saint of our day to recognize a kindred spirit, though her life, on the surface, seemed so different from Dorothy\u2019s own.\"\nFrom the afterword by John C.

        "title": "Deep-sea drilling to shed new light on the stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet - AWI",
        "raw_content": "// Deep-sea drilling to shed new light on the stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet\nAWI geoscientists lead international IODP expeditions to the Antarctic Ocean\nOver the next few months, geophysicists and geologists from the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research will gain unprecedented insights into the climatic history of the Antarctic Ice Sheet as part of the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP). The experts will take part in three Antarctic expeditions on board the IODP drilling ship \u201cJOIDES Resolution\u201d, and will lead two of the three legs. By collecting the drilled cores, the researchers hope to find evidence of how the ice masses of the Antarctic have reacted to sudden temperature climbs in past interglacial periods \u2013 information that is urgently needed in order to more accurately predict future sea-level rise. In terms of modelling, the behaviour of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is still considered one of the greatest question marks.\nHow will Antarctic ice masses respond to climate change, and to what extent will they contribute to sea-level rise? Climate researchers still don\u2019t have a satisfactory answer to that question, partly because they lack information on how ice sheets have behaved in previous interglacial periods. Geophysicists and geologists from the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) in Bremerhaven have now made it their goal to remedy the situation. Over the next seven months, they will join three international expeditions to the Antarctic Ocean on board the US-based drilling ship \u201cJOIDES Resolution\u201d, and will serve as chief scientists for two of the three expedition legs. These journeys will be undertaken as part of the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP), which is dedicated to investigating the history of our planet and its climate on the basis of deep-sea cores.\nThe first expedition (IODP 379) started in Punta Arenas (Chile) on 23 January 2019, and takes the 29-member team of international researchers, accompanied by technicians, drilling experts and ship\u2019s crew (altogether 125 people) to the Amundsen Sea \u2013 and with it, to the region broadly considered to be the Achilles heel of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. \u201cLarge sections of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet lie on land that is below sea level, which means these ice masses can easily be reached by warm ocean currents, and are therefore especially vulnerable to the effects of climate change,\u201d explains Dr Karsten Gohl, an AWI geophysicist and one of the expedition\u2019s two chief scientists.\nSeeking signs of an eroding West Antarctic Ice Sheet\nPine Island Gletscher (Photo: Thomas Ronge)\nAt the moment, those glaciers that empty into the Amundsen Sea are losing ice faster than all other ice streams in the Antarctic or in Greenland. Moreover, ice sheet simulations and sediment samples from the Ross Sea indicate that the ice masses of the West Antarctic retreated extensively during past interglacial periods \u2013 e.g., 3 million years ago in the Middle Pliocene, when the average global temperature was roughly 3 degrees higher than today. In other words, it was essentially the same temperature as that predicted for the year 2100 if greenhouse-gas emissions remain constant.\nBack then, the researchers believe, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet suffered a near-total collapse. However, there\u2019s still no evidence to back their hypothesis. The planned deep-sea drilling missions in the Amundsen Sea are intended to change all that. \u201cBy drilling down as far as 1000 metres [correction: there was a wrong depth in the earlier version] below the seafloor, we hope to find sediment deposits from the Pliocene and other warm epochs, where we should be able to see the remains of algae, foraminifera and other typical pelagic organisms. And these remains will prove that, in these warmer periods, there was little to no ice in West Antarctica,\u201d says AWI geologist and expedition member Dr Johann Klages.\nFinding these microfossils would also allow the researchers to reconstruct the past water temperatures, and to investigate which climate changes led to the retreat or decline of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. For example, insights into how warm the deep-sea currents were back then are desperately needed. The researchers plan to subsequently compare these historical values with current observations of deep-sea currents in the Amundsen Sea, in order to determine whether or not they could be considered the harbingers of a potential future collapse.\nIn addition, the experts hope to find evidence of increased iceberg occurrence. \u201cAs they drift, icebergs lose sand, gravel and pebbles that were trapped in their ice,\u201d explains Johann Klages. \u201cIf we encounter coarse sand and gravel deposits when we drill, it will tell us that large quantities of ice broke off from the ice sheet in past interglacial periods and drifted through the Antarctic Ocean.\u201d Further, these stony deposits\u2019 geochemical fingerprint would allow the researchers to identify the ice masses\u2019 region of origin, and to reconstruct which glaciers lost the most ice in each respective interglacial period.\nDrilling on a main route for icebergs\nThe IODP drilling ship JOIDES Resolution (Photo: Bill Crawford, International Oce)\nThe participants in the second expedition (IODP 382), which will take them to the Scotia Sea from 20 March to 20 May, will rely on the same research principle. The waters between the Antarctic Peninsula and the Falkland Islands are considered both the main route for large icebergs and their graveyard. If the Antarctic did indeed lose substantial ice during the interglacial periods of the Pliocene and Pleistocene, there should be corresponding deposits in these waters \u2013 from West Antarctica and East Antarctica alike. But if they are there, they\u2019re quite far down; as AWI geologist and expedition member Dr Thomas Ronge explains: \u201cAt the planned drilling sites, the water is roughly 4,000 metres deep. We\u2019ll have to drill for several days before we reach our target depth of 600 metres below the seafloor. Another important consideration: while we\u2019re drilling, we have to hope that we don\u2019t cross paths with any icebergs.\u201d\nFor any other research ship, the moment an iceberg drew near, the drilling site would have to be abandoned \u2013 but not for the \u201cJOIDES Resolution\u201d: in the event the 143-metre-long drilling ship has to evade an iceberg, the borehole on the seafloor will be sealed with a specially designed, funnel-shaped borehole plug. The plug can be relocated later, so that, once the ship has successfully avoided the iceberg, the team can easily resume drilling, right where they left off.\nIn the world\u2019s largest ocean current\nThe third leg of the expedition (IODP 383), which will be co-led by AWI geologist Dr Frank Lamy and the German climate researcher Gisela Winckler from Columbia University (USA), will take the ship to waters west of the Drake Passage, starting in late May. Once they\u2019ve arrived there, in the southeast Pacific region of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, the most powerful ocean current in the world, the researchers will have to drill 500 metres down into the seafloor in order to gather sediment samples from the Pliocene and Pleistocene. \u201cFor our work, above all we\u2019ll be considering the question of how wind and ocean currents in the Southern Hemisphere reacted to global warming trends in the past, and what major interactions there were between the atmosphere, the ocean, and the ice masses of the Antarctic,\u201d relates Frank Lamy.\nOnce analysed and combined, the outcomes of the three expeditions are expected to allow the researchers to precisely reconstruct the ice masses\u2019 behaviour during past interglacial periods. If all goes as planned, they will not only arrive at a much better grasp of one of the most central, yet poorly understood processes in the Earth\u2019s climate system, but will also be able to more accurately predict the future development of the West and East Antarctic Ice Sheets. Taken together, the two sheets contain enough freshwater to raise the global sea level by roughly 58 metres.\nThe IODP is an international research programme in which the USA, Japan, China, South Korea, India, Brazil, New Zealand, Australia and 15 European countries, including Germany, are participating. The US-based IODP ship \u201cJOIDES Resolution\u201d can accommodate up to 50 researchers and 65 crewmembers. Its operations are financed by the National Science Foundation (USA), and by support organisations in all other IODP member states.\nThe video below was created by Pixelmoversandmakers.com\nThe US drilling ship JOIDES Resolution, jpg | 10 MB",

        "raw_content": "How Bail Is Set:\nJudges are responsible for setting bail. Because many people want to get out of jail immediately (instead of waiting up to five days to see a judge), most jails have standard bail schedules that specify bail amounts for common crimes. An arrested person can get out of jail quickly by paying the amount set forth in the bail schedule.\nThe Eighth Amendment to the U. S. Constitution requires that bail not be excessive. This means that bail should not be used to raise money for the government or to punish a person for being suspected of committing a crime. Remember: The purpose of bail is to give an arrested person her freedom until she is convicted of a crime, and the amount of bail must be no more than is reasonably necessary to keep her from fleeing before a case is over.\nSo much for theory. In fact, many judges set an impossibly high bail in particular types of cases (such as those involving drug sales or rape) to keep a suspect in jail until the trial is over. Although bail set for this purpose \u2014 called preventative detention \u2014 is thought by many to violate the Constitution, courts have uniformly rejected this argument (the issue has never been decided by the U.S. Supreme Court, the ultimate arbiter of what is and is not constitutional).\nIf a person can\u2019t afford the amount of bail on the bail schedule, he or she can ask a judge to lower it. Depending on the state, this request must be made either in a special bail setting hearing or when the person appears in court for the first time (usually called the arraignment). Attorney Jesus R. Lopez is experienced at making arguments in bail reduction hearings and can often help reduce bail to a reasonable amount.",

        "raw_content": "Severe flooding feared in China\nDon LeeThe Baltimore Sun\nMIANYANG, China - The Chinese government warned yesterday that as many as 1.2 million residents might be evacuated because they could be inundated by a swelling \"barrier lake\" formed by the May 12 earthquake.\nThe warning was issued hours after a Russian helicopter transported heavy machines over mountains in the northern part of Sichuan province and hundreds of Chinese soldiers carried in 10 tons of dynamite to contend with the barrier lake at Tangjiashan, about two miles upstream from the town of Beichuan.\nThe afternoon announcement, broadcast on local television, made for another jittery day in Mianyang, a region with a population of 5 million that includes some of the areas hit hardest by the earthquake, including Beichuan.\nHopes of a return to normal in the region were set back by Sunday's magnitude-6 aftershock, centered north of here, which killed eight people and destroyed 270,000 houses.\nThe flood warning yesterday said that if the entire barrier collapsed, about 1.2 million people would be ordered to move to higher ground, including some in central Mianyang. Tens of thousands of people were evacuated earlier.\nThe warning prompted some people to haul their tents to higher ground and others to flee Mianyang.\n\"Some of my friends are leaving town; they want to go as far away as possible,\" said Liu Decai, 35, a taxi driver who drove home after the broadcast to pack up jewelry and other valuables.\nChina's central government continued to stress the importance of resettling victims, restoring production and rebuilding devastated areas. About 5 million people were left homeless by the quake, which has left more than 65,000 dead, more than 306,000 injured and 23,150 missing.\nAs of Sunday, 5,914 patients had been moved from overcrowded hospitals in Sichuan province to medical centers elsewhere in the country, and 2,100 more were to be transferred, the Ministry of Health said.\nElsewhere in China, officials said yesterday that the country's one-child policy exempts families with a child killed, severely injured or disabled by the earthquake, which killed many only children.\nThose families can obtain a certificate to have another child, said the Chengdu Population and Family Planning Committee in the capital of hard-hit Sichuan province.\nWith so many shattered families asking questions, the Chengdu committee is clarifying the one-child policy, a committee official said.\n\"There are just a lot of cases now, so we need to clarify our policies,\" said the official, who declined to elaborate.\nChinese couples who have more than one child are commonly punished by fines.\nThe announcement says that if a child born illegally was killed in the quake, the parents will no longer have to pay fines for that child - but that the previously paid fines wouldn't be refunded.\nIf the couple's legally born child is killed and the couple is left with an illegally born child younger than 18, that child could be registered as the legal child. That would give the child previously denied rights, including nine years of free compulsory education.\nOfficials are closely watching barrier lakes, about 35 of which formed when rivers were plugged by landslides triggered by the quake. Geologists worry that aftershocks or heavy rain could burst the barriers.\nOne of the largest and most threatening holds more than 4.5 billion cubic feet of water, the official New China News Agency said.\nLast night, about 600 engineers and soldiers had gathered at the blockage of the lake and were planning to work through the night to remove debris from a sluice, the agency said. Soldiers also might set off small-scale explosions to help drain the water.\nDon Lee writes for the Los Angeles Times. The Associated Press contributed to this article.",

This lets the surgeon cut through tissue without damaging nearby cells. Laser has been used in place of surgical cutting tools in various surgeries. These include eye surgery and gynecological procedures. It can also be used to remove skin marks and small tumors.\nA surgeon can also use electrical tools that run on high-frequency electric currents.

Therefore, addressing this urgent global challenge effectively requires transformational changes in the ways the world produces, consumes and governs energy. More than two decades of experience shows that a supportive policy environment \u2013 meaningful and consistent domestic laws and regulation underpinned by ambitious international treaties \u2013 is the only way to affect these changes. This includes developing alternatives to emissions-intensive fossil fuels as well as transitioning economies around the world onto a secure, low-carbon and climate-friendly footing.\nThe MSc in Global Energy and Climate Policy at SOAS University of London addresses precisely these issues, treating climate and energy policy as inextricably linked. You will study cases drawn from both the Global North and South to form the basis of your studies as you examine how policy is made, advocated and implemented \u2013 or sometimes prevented \u2013 around the world. In addition to practical skills in risk analysis, policy analysis and strategic advocacy, you will acquire theoretical knowledge of climate and energy policies. The MSc is rounded out by negotiation and media training as well as a week-long study tour to key institutions in the energy and climate policy space in Brussels and Paris, (such as the European Commission, various energy lobby groups, and the International Energy Agency ).\nThe knowledge and skills that you gain on the MSc could lead you to high level academic or professional engagement in the public, private or non-profit sectors. These include the areas of public administration, international organisations, corporations, think tanks, public affairs & advocacy or any number of other arenas where climate and energy policies are shaped.\nStudents will be able to benefit from the expertise located at several other departments at SOAS including the Centre for Environment, Development and Policy (CEDEP), the Law School\u2019s Law, Environment and Development Centre (LEDC), the Centre on the Politics of Energy Security (CEPES), the Centre for Water and Development, and the SOAS Food Studies Centre. The MSc is designed for those already engaged with or planning a career in professional contexts relating to energy and/or climate policy.\nIf you are interested in finding out more about this exciting and timely program and are applying from Canada, please contact Barclay Educational Services.

        "title": "Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity by David Allen, Paperback | Barnes & Noble\u00ae B&N Top 100 NY Times Bestsellers",
        "raw_content": "by David Allen, James Fallows (Foreword by)David Allen\nThe book Lifehack calls \"The Bible of business and personal productivity.\"\n\"A completely revised and updated edition of the blockbuster bestseller from 'the personal productivity guru'\"\u2014Fast Company\nSince it was first published almost fifteen years ago, David Allen\u2019s Getting Things Done has become one of the most influential business books of its era, and the ultimate book on personal organization. \u201cGTD\u201d is now shorthand for an entire way of approaching professional and personal tasks, and has spawned an entire culture of websites, organizational tools, seminars, and offshoots.\nAllen has rewritten the book from start to finish, tweaking his classic text with important perspectives on the new workplace, and adding material that will make the book fresh and relevant for years to come. This new edition of Getting Things Done will be welcomed not only by its hundreds of thousands of existing fans but also by a whole new generation eager to adopt its proven principles.\nDavid Allen is widely recognized as the world\u2019s leading expert on personal and organizational productivity. He has more than thirty years of pioneering research and experience as a management consultant and executive coach to some of America\u2019s most prestigious organizations, such as New York Life, the World Bank, and the U.S. Navy.\nPart 1 The Art of Getting Things Done\nA New Practice for a New Reality\nIt's possible for a person to have an overwhelming number of things to do and still function productively with a clear head and a positive sense of relaxed control. That's a great way to live and work, at elevated levels of effectiveness and efficiency. It's also becoming a critical operational style required of successful and high-performing professionals. You already know how to do everything necessary to achieve this high-performance state. If you're like most people, however, you need to apply these skills in a more timely, complete, and systematic way so you can get on top of it all instead of feeling buried. And though the method and the techniques I describe in this book are immensely practical and based on common sense, most people will have some major work habits that must be modified before they can implement this system. The small changes required-changes in the way you clarify and organize all the things that command your attention-could represent a significant shift in how you approach some key aspects of your day-to-day work. Many of my clients have referred to this as a significant paradigm shift.\nThe methods I present here are all based on two key objectives: (1) capturing all the things that need to get done-now, later, someday, big, little, or in between-into a logical and trusted system outside of your head and off your mind; and (2) disciplining yourself to make front-end decisions about all of the \"inputs\" you let into your life so that you will always have a plan for \"next actions\" that you can implement or renegotiate at any moment.\nAnxiety is caused by a lack of control, organization, preparation, and action. -David Kekich\nThis book offers a proven method for this kind of high- performance workflow management. It provides good tools, tips, techniques, and tricks for implementation. As you'll discover, the principles and methods are instantly usable and applicable to everything you have to do in your personal as well as your professional life.* (*I consider \"work,\" in its most universal sense, as meaning anything that you want or need to be different than it currently is. Many people make a distinction between \"work\" and \"personal life,\" but I don't: to me, weeding the garden or updating my will is just as much \"work\" as writing this book or coaching a client. All the methods and techniques in this book are applicable across that life/work spectrum-to be effective, they need to be.) You can incorporate, as many others have before you, what I describe as an ongoing dynamic style of operating in your work and in your world. Or, like still others, you can simply use this as a guide to getting back into better control when you feel you need to.\nThe Problem: New Demands, Insufficient Resources\nAlmost everyone I encounter these days feels he or she has too much to handle and not enough time to get it all done. In the course of a single recent week, I consulted with a partner in a major global investment firm who was concerned that the new corporate-management responsibilities he was being offered would stress his family commitments beyond the limits; and with a midlevel human-resources manager trying to stay on top of her 150-plus e-mail requests per day fueled by the goal of doubling the company's regional office staff from eleven hundred to two thousand people in one year, all as she tried to protect a social life for herself on the weekends.\nA paradox has emerged in this new millennium: people have enhanced quality of life, but at the same time they are adding to their stress levels by taking on more than they have resources to handle. It's as though their eyes were bigger than their stomachs. And most people are to some degree frustrated and perplexed about how to improve the situation.\nWork No Longer Has Clear Boundaries\nA major factor in the mounting stress level is that the actual nature of our jobs has changed much more dramatically and rapidly than have our training for and our ability to deal with work. In just the last half of the twentieth century, what constituted \"work\" in the industrialized world was transformed from assembly-line, make-it and move-it kinds of activity to what Peter Drucker has so aptly termed \"knowledge work.\"\nIn the old days, work was self-evident. Fields were to be plowed, machines tooled, boxes packed, cows milked, widgets cranked. You knew what work had to be done-you could see it. It was clear when the work was finished, or not finished.\nNow, for many of us, there are no edges to most of our projects. Most people I know have at least half a dozen things they're trying to achieve right now, and even if they had the rest of their lives to try, they wouldn't be able to finish these to perfection. You're probably faced with the same dilemma. How good could that conference potentially be? How effective could the training program be, or the structure of your executives' compensation package? How inspiring is the essay you're writing? How motivating the staff meeting? How functional the reorganization? And a last question: How much available data could be relevant to doing those projects \"better\"? The answer is, an infinite amount, easily accessible, or at least potentially so, through the Web.\nOn another front, the lack of edges can create more work for everyone. Many of today's organizational outcomes require cross-divisional communication, cooperation, and engagement. Our individual office silos are crumbling, and with them is going the luxury of not having to read cc'd e-mails from the marketing department, or from human resources, or from some ad hoc, deal-with-a-certain-issue committee.\nI try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once. -Ashley Brilliant\nOur Jobs Keep Changing\nThe disintegrating edges of our projects and our work in general would be challenging enough for anyone. But now we must add to that equation the constantly shifting definition of our jobs. I often ask in my seminars, \"Which of you are doing only what you were hired to do?\" Seldom do I get a raised hand. As amorphous as edgeless work may be, if you had the chance to stick with some specifically described job long enough, you'd probably figure out what you needed to do-how much, at what level-to stay sane. But few have that luxury anymore, for two reasons:\n1 | -The organizations we're involved with seem to be in constant morph mode, with ever-changing goals, products, partners, customers, markets, technologies, and owners. These all, by necessity, shake up structures, forms, roles, and responsibilities.\n2 | -The average professional is more of a free agent these days than ever before, changing careers as often as his or her parents once changed jobs. Even fortysomethings and fiftysomethings hold to standards of continual growth. Their aims are just more integrated into the mainstream now, covered by the catchall \"professional, management, and executive development\"-which simply means they won't keep doing what they're doing for any extended period of time.\nWe can never really be prepared for that which is wholly new. We have to adjust ourselves, and every radical adjustment is a crisis in self-esteem: we undergo a test, we have to prove ourselves. It needs subordinate self-confidence to face drastic change without inner trembling.-Eric Hoffer\nLittle seems clear for very long anymore, as far as what our work is and what or how much input may be relevant to doing it well. We're allowing in huge amounts of information and communication from the outer world and generating an equally large volume of ideas and agreements with ourselves and others from our inner world. And we haven't been well equipped to deal with this huge number of internal and external commitments.\nThe Old Models and Habits Are Insufficient\nNeither our standard education, nor traditional time-management models, nor the plethora of organizing tools available, such as personal notebook planners, Microsoft Outlook, or Palm personal digital assistants (PDAs), has given us a viable means of meeting the new demands placed on us. If you've tried to use any of these processes or tools, you've probably found them unable to accommodate the speed, complexity, and changing priority factors inherent in what you are doing. The ability to be successful, relaxed, and in control during these fertile but turbulent times demands new ways of thinking and working. There is a great need for new methods, technologies, and work habits to help us get on top of our world.\nThe traditional approaches to time management and personal organization were useful in their time. They provided helpful reference points for a workforce that was just emerging from an industrial assembly-line modality into a new kind of work that included choices about what to do and discretion about when to do it. When \"time\" itself turned into a work factor, personal calendars became a key work tool. (Even as late as the 1980s many professionals considered having a pocket Day-Timer the essence of being organized, and many people today think of their calendar as the central tool for being in control.) Along with discretionary time also came the need to make good choices about what to do. \"ABC\" priority codes and daily \"to-do\" lists were key techniques that people developed to help them sort through their choices in some meaningful way. If you had the freedom to decide what to do, you also had the responsibility to make good choices, given your \"priorities.\"\nThe hurrier I go, the behinder I get.-Anonymous\nThe winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.-Edward Gibbon\nWhat you've probably discovered, at least at some level, is that a calendar, though important, can really effectively manage only a small portion of what you need to organize. And daily to-do lists and simplified priority coding have proven inadequate to deal with the volume and variable nature of the average professional's workload. More and more people's jobs are made up of dozens or even hundreds of e-mails a day, with no latitude left to ignore a single request, complaint, or order. There are few people who can (or even should) expect to code everything an \"A,\" a \"B,\" or a \"C\" priority, or who can maintain some predetermined list of to-dos that the first telephone call or interruption from their boss won't totally undo.\nThe \"Big Picture\" vs. the Nitty-Gritty\nAt the other end of the spectrum, a huge number of business books, models, seminars, and gurus have championed the \"bigger view\" as the solution to dealing with our complex world. Clarifying major goals and values, so the thinking goes, gives order, meaning, and direction to our work. In practice, however, the well-intentioned exercise of values thinking too often does not achieve its desired results. I have seen too many of these efforts fail, for one or more of the following three reasons:\n1 | There is too much distraction at the day-to-day, hour-to-hour level of commitments to allow for appropriate focus on the higher levels.\n2 | Ineffective personal organizational systems create huge subconscious resistance to undertaking even bigger projects and goals that will likely not be managed well, and that will in turn cause even more distraction and stress.\n3 | When loftier levels and values actually are clarified, it raises the bar of our standards, making us notice that much more that needs changing. We are already having a serious negative reaction to the overwhelming number of things we have to do. And what created much of the work that's on those lists in the first place? Our values!\nFocusing on primary outcomes and values is a critical exercise, certainly. But it does not mean there is less to do, or fewer challenges in getting the work done. Quite the contrary: it just ups the ante in the game, which still must be played day to day. For a human-resources executive, for example, deciding to deal with quality-of-work-life issues in order to attract and keep key talent does not make things simpler.\nFocusing on values does not simplify your life. It gives meaning and direction-and a lot more complexity.\nThere has been a missing piece in our new culture of knowledge work: a system with a coherent set of behaviors and tools that functions effectively at the level at which work really happens. It must incorporate the results of big-picture thinking as well as the smallest of open details. It must manage multi- ple tiers of priorities. It must maintain control over hundreds of new inputs daily. It must save a lot more time and effort than are needed to maintain it. It must make it easier to get things done.\nThe Promise: The \"Ready State\" of the Martial Artist\nReflect for a moment on what it actually might be like if your personal management situation were totally under control, at all levels and at all times. What if you could dedicate fully 100 percent of your attention to whatever was at hand, at your own choosing, with no distraction?\nIt is possible. There is a way to get a grip on it all, stay relaxed, and get meaningful things done with minimal effort, across the whole spectrum of your life and work. You can experience what the martial artists call a \"mind like water\" and top athletes refer to as the \"zone,\" within the complex world in which you're engaged. In fact, you have probably already been in this state from time to time.\nIt's a condition of working, doing, and being in which the mind is clear and constructive things are happening. It's a state that is accessible by everyone, and one that is increasingly needed to deal effectively with the complexity of life in the twenty-first century. More and more it will be a required condition for high-performance professionals who wish to maintain balance and a consistent positive output in their work. World-class rower Craig Lambert has described how it feels in Mind Over Water (Houghton Mifflin, 1998):\nRowers have a word for this frictionless state: swing... Recall the pure joy of riding on a backyard swing: an easy cycle of motion, the momentum coming from the swing itself. The swing carries us; we do not force it. We pump our legs to drive our arc higher, but gravity does most of the work. We are not so much swinging as being swung. The boat swings you. The shell wants to move fast: Speed sings in its lines and nature. Our job is simply to work with the shell, to stop holding it back with our thrashing struggles to go faster. Trying too hard sabotages boat speed. Trying becomes striving and striving undoes itself. Social climbers strive to be aristocrats but their efforts prove them no such thing. Aristocrats do not strive; they have already arrived. Swing is a state of arrival.\nLife is denied by lack of attention, whether it be to cleaning windows or trying to write a masterpiece.-Nadia Boulanger\nThe \"Mind Like Water\" Simile\nIn karate there is an image that's used to define the position of perfect readiness: \"mind like water.\" Imagine throwing a pebble into a still pond. How does the water respond? The answer is, totally appropriately to the force and mass of the input; then it returns to calm. It doesn't overreact or underreact.\nIf your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything; it is open to everything.-Shunryu Suzuki\nThe power in a karate punch comes from speed, not muscle; it comes from a focused \"pop\" at the end of the whip. That's why petite people can learn to break boards and bricks with their hands: it doesn't take calluses or brute strength, just the ability to generate a focused thrust with speed. But a tense muscle is a slow one. So the high levels of training in the martial arts teach and demand balance and relaxation as much as anything else. Clearing the mind and being flexible are key.\nAnything that causes you to overreact or underreact can control you, and often does. Responding inappropriately to your e-mail, your staff, your projects, your unread magazines, your thoughts about what you need to do, your children, or your boss will lead to less effective results than you'd like. Most people give either more or less attention to things than they deserve, simply because they don't operate with a \"mind like water.\"\nAnything that causes you to overreact or underreact can control you, and often does.\nThere is one thing we can do, and the happiest people are those who can do it to the limit of their ability. We can be completely present. We can be all here. We can...give all our attention to the opportunity before us.-Mark Van Doren\nCan You Get into Your \"Productive State\" When Required?\nThink about the last time you felt highly productive. You probably had a sense of being in control; you were not stressed out; you were highly focused on what you were doing; time tended to disappear (lunchtime already?); and you felt you were making noticeable progress toward a meaningful outcome. Would you like to have more such experiences?\nAnd if you get seriously far out of that state-and start to feel out of control, stressed out, unfocused, bored, and stuck-do you have the ability to get yourself back into it? That's where the methodology of Getting Things Done will have the greatest impact on your life, by showing you how to get back to \"mind like water,\" with all your resources and faculties functioning at a maximum level.\nThe Principle: Dealing Effectively with Internal Commitments\nA basic truism I have discovered over twenty years of coaching and training is that most of the stress people experience comes from inappropriately managed commitments they make or accept. Even those who are not consciously \"stressed out\" will invariably experience greater relaxation, better focus, and increased productive energy when they learn more effectively to control the \"open loops\" of their lives.\nYou've probably made many more agreements with yourself than you realize, and every single one of them-big or little-is being tracked by a less-than-conscious part of you. These are the \"incompletes,\" or \"open loops,\" which I define as anything pulling at your attention that doesn't belong where it is, the way it is. Open loops can include everything from really big to-do items like \"End world hunger\" to the more modest \"Hire new assistant\" to the tiniest task such as \"Replace electric pencil sharpener.\"\nIt's likely that you also have more internal commitments currently in play than you're aware of. Consider how many things you feel even the smallest amount of responsibility to change, finish, handle, or do something about. You have a commitment, for instance, to deal in some way with every new communication landing in your e-mail, on your voice-mail, and in your in-basket. And surely there are numerous projects that you sense need to be defined in your areas of responsibility, as well as goals and directions to be clarified, a career to be managed, and life in general to be kept in balance. You have accepted some level of internal responsibility for everything in your life and work that represents an open loop of any sort.\nAnything that does not belong where it is, the way it is, is an \"open loop\" pulling on your attention.\nIn order to deal effectively with all of that, you must first identify and collect all those things that are \"ringing your bell\" in some way, and then plan how to handle them. That may seem like a simple thing to do, but in practice most people don't know how to do it in a consistent way.\nThe Basic Requirements for Managing Commitments\nManaging commitments well requires the implementation of some basic activities and behaviors:\n* -First of all, if it's on your mind, your mind isn't clear. Anything you consider unfinished in any way must be captured in a trusted system outside your mind, or what I call a collection bucket, that you know you'll come back to regularly and sort through.\n* -Second, you must clarify exactly what your commitment is and decide what you have to do, if anything, to make progress toward fulfilling it.\n* -Third, once you've decided on all the actions you need to take, you must keep reminders of them organized in a system you review regularly.\nAn Important Exercise to Test This Model\nI suggest that you write down the project or situation that is most on your mind at this moment. What most \"bugs\" you, distracts you, or interests you, or in some other way consumes a large part of your conscious attention? It may be a project or problem that is really \"in your face,\" something you are being pressed to handle, or a situation you feel you must deal with sooner rather than later.\nMaybe you have a vacation trip coming up that you need to make some major last-minute decisions about. Or perhaps you just inherited six million dollars and you don't know what to do with the cash. Whatever.\nGot it? Good. Now describe, in a single written sentence, your intended successful outcome for this problem or situation. In other words, what would need to happen for you to check this \"project\" off as \"done\"? It could be as simple as \"Take the Hawaii vacation,\" \"Handle situation with customer X,\" \"Resolve college situation with Susan,\" \"Clarify new divisional management structure,\" or \"Implement new investment strategy.\" All clear? Great.\nNow write down the very next physical action required to move the situation forward. If you had nothing else to do in your life but get closure on this, where would you go right now, and what visible action would you take? Would you pick up a phone and make a call? Go to your computer and write an e-mail? Sit down with pen and paper and brainstorm about it? Talk face-to-face with your spouse, your secretary, your attorney, or your boss? Buy nails at the hardware store? What?\nGot the answer to that? Good.\nWas there any value for you in these two minutes of thinking? If you're like the vast majority of people who complete that drill during my seminars, you'll be experiencing at least a tiny bit of enhanced control, relaxation, and focus. You'll also be feeling more motivated to actually do something about that situation you've merely been thinking about till now. Imagine that motivation magnified a thousandfold, as a way to live and work.\nIf anything at all positive happened for you in this little exercise, think about this: What changed? What happened to create that improved condition within your own experience? The situation itself is no further along, at least in the physical world. It's certainly not finished yet. What probably happened is that you acquired a clearer definition of the outcome desired and the next action required.\nBut what created that? The answer is, thinking. Not a lot, just enough to solidify your commitment and the resources required to fulfill it.\nThink like a man of action, act like a man of thought.-Henry Bergson\nThe Real Work of Knowledge Work\nWelcome to the real-life experience of \"knowledge work,\" and a profound operational principle: You have to think about your stuff more than you realize but not as much as you're afraid you might. As Peter Drucker has written, \"In knowledge work...the task is not given; it has to be determined. 'What are the expected results from this work?' is ..... the key question in making knowledge workers productive. And it is a question that demands risky decisions. There is usually no right answer; there are choices instead. And results have to be clearly specified, if productivity is to be achieved.\"\nMost people have a resistance to initiating the burst of energy that it will take to clarify the real meaning, for them, of something they have let into their world, and to decide what they need to do about it. We're never really taught that we have to think about our work before we can do it; much of our daily activity is already defined for us by the undone and unmoved things staring at us when we come to work, or by the family to be fed, the laundry to be done, or the children to be dressed at home. Thinking in a concentrated manner to define desired outcomes is something few people feel they have to do. But in truth, outcome thinking is one of the most effective means available for making wishes reality.\nWhy Things Are on Your Mind\nMost often, the reason something is \"on your mind\" is that you want it to be different than it currently is, and yet:\n* -you haven't clarified exactly what the intended outcome is; * -you haven't decided what the very next physical action step is; and/or * -you haven't put reminders of the outcome and the action required in a system you trust.\nThe ancestor of every action is a thought.-Ralph Waldo Emerson\nThat's why it's on your mind. Until those thoughts have been clarified and those decisions made, and the resulting data has been stored in a system that you absolutely know you will think about as often as you need to, your brain can't give up the job. You can fool everyone else, but you can't fool your own mind. It knows whether or not you've come to the conclusions you need to, and whether you've put the resulting outcomes and action reminders in a place that can be trusted to resurface appropriately within your conscious mind. If you haven't done those things, it won't quit working overtime. Even if you've already decided on the next step you'll take to resolve a problem, your mind can't let go until and unless you write yourself a reminder in a place it knows you will, without fail, look. It will keep pressuring you about that untaken next step, usually when you can't do anything about it, which will just add to your stress.\nYour Mind Doesn't Have a Mind of Its Own\nAt least a portion of your mind is really kind of stupid, in an interesting way. If it had any innate intelligence, it would remind you of the things you needed to do only when you could do something about them.\nDo you have a flashlight somewhere with dead batteries in it? When does your mind tend to remind you that you need new batteries? When you notice the dead ones! That's not very smart. If your mind had any innate intelligence, it would remind you about those dead batteries only when you passed live ones in a store. And ones of the right size, to boot.\nBetween the time you woke up today and now, did you think of anything you needed to do that you still haven't done? Have you had that thought more than once? Why? It's a waste of time and energy to keep thinking about something that you make no progress on. And it only adds to your anxieties about what you should be doing and aren't.\nThis constant, unproductive preoccupation with all the things we have to do is the single largest consumer of time and energy.-Kerry Gleeson\nIt seems that most people let their minds run a lot of the show, especially where the too-much-to-do syndrome is concerned. You've probably given over a lot of your \"stuff,\" a lot of your open loops, to an entity on your inner committee that is incapable of dealing with those things effectively the way they are-your mind.\nThe Transformation of \"Stuff\"\nHere's how I define \"stuff\": anything you have allowed into your psychological or physical world that doesn't belong where it is, but for which you haven't yet determined the desired outcome and the next action step. The reason most organizing systems haven't worked for most people is that they haven't yet transformed all the \"stuff\" they're trying to organize. As long as it's still \"stuff,\" it's not controllable.\nMost of the to-do lists I have seen over the years (when people had them at all) were merely listings of \"stuff,\" not inventories of the resultant real work that needed to be done. They were partial reminders of a lot of things that were unresolved and as yet untranslated into outcomes and actions-that is, the real outlines and details of what the list-makers had to \"do.\"\n\"Stuff\" is not inherently a bad thing. Things that command our attention, by their very nature, usually show up as \"stuff.\" But once \"stuff\" comes into our lives and work, we have an inherent commitment to ourselves to define and clarify its meaning. That's our responsibility as knowledge workers; if \"stuff\" were already transformed and clear, our value, other than physical labor, would probably not be required.\nAt the conclusion of one of my seminars, a senior manager of a major biotech firm looked back at the to-do lists she had come in with and said, \"Boy, that was an amorphous blob of undoability!\" That's the best description I've ever heard of what passes for organizing lists in most personal systems. The vast majority of people have been trying to get organized by rearranging incomplete lists of unclear things; they haven't yet realized how much and what they need to organize in order to get the real payoff. They need to gather everything that requires thinking about and then do that thinking if their organizational efforts are to be successful.\nRule your mind or it will rule you.-Horace\nWe need to transform all the \"stuff\" we're trying to organize into actionable stuff we need to do.\nThe Process: Managing Action\nYou can train yourself, almost like an athlete, to be faster, more responsive, more proactive, and more focused in knowledge work. You can think more effectively and manage the results with more ease and control. You can minimize the loose ends across the whole spectrum of your work life and personal life and get a lot more done with less effort. And you can make front-end decision-making about all the \"stuff\" you collect and create standard operating procedure for living and working in this new millennium.\nBefore you can achieve any of that, though, you'll need to get in the habit of keeping nothing on your mind. And the way to do that, as we've seen, is not by managing time, managing information, or managing priorities. After all:\n* -you don't manage five minutes and wind up with six;\n* -you don't manage information overload-otherwise you'd walk into a library and die, or the first time you connected to the Web, or even opened a phone book, you'd blow up; and\n* -you don't manage priorities-you have them.\nInstead, the key to managing all of your \"stuff\" is managing your actions.\nManaging Action Is the Prime Challenge\nWhat you do with your time, what you do with information, and what you do with your body and your focus relative to your priorities-those are the real options to which you must allocate your limited resources. The real issue is how to make appropriate choices about what to do at any point in time. The real issue is how we manage actions.\nThat may sound obvious. However, it might amaze you to discover how many next actions for how many projects and commitments remain undetermined by most people. It's extremely difficult to manage actions you haven't identified or decided on. Most people have dozens of things that they need to do to make progress on many fronts, but they don't yet know what they are. And the common complaint that \"I don't have time to...\" (fill in the blank) is understandable because many projects seem overwhelming-and are overwhelming because you can't do a project at all! You can only do an action related to it. Many actions require only a minute or two, in the appropriate context, to move a project forward.\nIn training and coaching thousands of professionals, I have found that lack of time is not the major issue for them (though they themselves may think it is); the real problem is a lack of clarity and definition about what a project really is, and what the associated next-action steps required are. Clarifying things on the front end, when they first appear on the radar, rather than on the back end, after trouble has developed, allows people to reap the benefits of managing action.\nThe Value of a Bottom-Up Approach\nI have discovered over the years the practical value of working on personal productivity improvement from the bottom up, starting with the most mundane, ground-floor level of current activity and commitments. Intellectually, the most appropriate way ought to be to work from the top down, first uncovering personal and corporate missions, then defining critical objectives, and finally focusing on the details of implementation. The trouble is, however, that most people are so embroiled in commitments on a day-to-day level that their ability to focus successfully on the larger horizon is seriously impaired. Consequently, a bottom-up approach is usually more effective.\nThe beginning is half of every action.-Greek proverb\nThings rarely get stuck because of lack of time. They get stuck because the doing of them has not been defined.\nGetting current on and in control of what's in your in-basket and on your mind right now, and incorporating practices that can help you stay that way, will provide the best means of broadening your horizons. A creative, buoyant energy will be unleashed that will better support your focus on new heights, and your confidence will increase to handle what that creativity produces. An immediate sense of freedom, release, and inspiration naturally comes to people who roll up their sleeves and implement this process.\nYou'll be better equipped to undertake higher-focused thinking when your tools for handling the resulting actions for implementation are part of your ongoing operational style. There are more meaningful things to think about than your in- basket, but if your management of that level is not as efficient as it could be, it's like trying to swim in baggy clothing.\nMany executives I have worked with during the day to clear the decks of their mundane \"stuff\" have spent the following evening having a stream of ideas and visions about their company and their future. This happens as an automatic consequence of unsticking their workflow.\nHorizontal and Vertical Action Management\nYou need to control commitments, projects, and actions in two ways-horizontally and vertically. \"Horizontal\" control maintains coherence across all the activities in which you are involved. Imagine your psyche constantly scanning your environment like police radar; it may land on any of a thousand different items that invite or demand your attention during any twenty-four-hour period: the drugstore, the housekeeper, your aunt Martha, the strategic plan, lunch, a wilting plant in the office, an upset customer, shoes that need shining. You have to buy stamps, deposit that check, make the hotel reservation, cancel a staff meeting, see a movie tonight. You might be surprised at the volume of things you actually think about and have to deal with just in one day. You need a good system that can keep track of as many of them as possible, supply required information about them on demand, and allow you to shift your focus from one thing to the next quickly and easily.\nVision is not enough; it must be combined with venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps; we must step up the stairs.-Vaclav Havel\n\"Vertical\" control, in contrast, manages thinking up and down the track of individual topics and projects. For example, your inner \"police radar\" lands on your next vacation as you and your spouse talk about it over dinner-where and when you'll go, what you'll do, how to prepare for the trip, and so on. Or you and your boss need to make some decisions about the new departmental reorganization you're about to launch. Or you just need to get your thinking up to date on the customer you're about to call. This is \"project planning\" in the broad sense. It's focusing in on a single endeavor, situation, or person and fleshing out whatever ideas, details, priorities, and sequences of events may be required for you to handle it, at least for the moment.\nThe goal for managing horizontally and vertically is the same: to get things off your mind and get things done. Appropriate action management lets you feel comfortable and in control as you move through your broad spectrum of work and life, while appropriate project focusing gets you clear about and on track with the specifics needed.\nThe Major Change: Getting It All Out of Your Head\nThere is no real way to achieve the kind of relaxed control I'm promising if you keep things only in your head. As you'll discover, the individual behaviors described in this book are things you're already doing. The big difference between what I do and what others do is that I capture and organize 100 percent of my \"stuff\" in and with objective tools at hand, not in my mind. And that applies to everything-little or big, personal or professional, urgent or not. Everything.\nI'm sure that at some time or other you've gotten to a place in a project, or in your life, where you just had to sit down and make a list. If so, you have a reference point for what I'm talking about. Most people, however, do that kind of list-making drill only when the confusion get too unbearable and they just have to do something about it. They usually make a list only about the specific area that's bugging them. But if you made that kind of review a characteristic of your ongoing life- and work style, and you maintained it across all areas of your life (not just the most \"urgent\"), you'd be practicing the kind of \"black belt\" management style I'm describing.\nI try to make intuitive choices based on my options, instead of trying to think about what those options are. I need to have thought about all of that already and captured the results in a trusted way. I don't want to waste time thinking about things more than once. That's an inefficient use of creative energy and a source of frustration and stress.\nAnd you can't fudge this thinking. Your mind will keep working on anything that's still in that undecided state. But there's a limit to how much unresolved \"stuff\" it can contain before it blows a fuse.\nThe short-term-memory part of your mind-the part that tends to hold all of the incomplete, undecided, and unorganized \"stuff\"-functions much like RAM on a personal computer. Your conscious mind, like the computer screen, is a focusing tool, not a storage place. You can think about only two or three things at once. But the incomplete items are still being stored in the short-term-memory space. And as with RAM, there's limited capacity; there's only so much \"stuff\" you can store in there and still have that part of your brain function at a high level. Most people walk around with their RAM bursting at the seams. They're constantly distracted, their focus disturbed by their own internal mental overload.\nThere is no reason ever to have the same thought twice, unless you like having that thought.\nFor example, in the last few minutes, has your mind wandered off into some area that doesn't have anything to do with what you're reading here? Probably. And most likely where your mind went was to some open loop, some incomplete situation that you have some investment in. All that situation did was rear up out of the RAM part of your brain and yell at you, internally. And what did you do about it? Unless you wrote it down and put it in a trusted \"bucket\" that you know you'll review appropriately sometime soon, more than likely you worried about it. Not the most effective behavior: no progress was made, and tension was increased.\nThe big problem is that your mind keeps reminding you of things when you can't do anything about them. It has no sense of past or future. That means that as soon as you tell yourself that you need to do something, and store it in your RAM, there's a part of you that thinks you should be doing that something all the time. Everything you've told yourself you ought to do, it thinks you should be doing right now. Frankly, as soon as you have two things to do stored in your RAM, you've generated personal failure, because you can't do them both at the same time. This produces an all-pervasive stress factor whose source can't be pinpointed.\nIt is hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head.-Sally Kempton\nMost people have been in some version of this mental stress state so consistently, for so long, that they don't even know they're in it. Like gravity, it's ever-present-so much so that those who experience it usually aren't even aware of the pressure. The only time most of them will realize how much tension they've been under is when they get rid of it and notice how different they feel.\nCan you get rid of that kind of stress? You bet. The rest of this book will explain how. Reprinted from Getting Things Done by David Allen by permission of Viking Books, a member of Penguin Putnam Inc. Copyright (c) 2000 by David Allen.

That way, the mind is freed from the job of remembering everything that needs to be done, and can concentrate on actually performing those tasks.\nGTD is based on making it easy to store, track and retrieve all information related to the things that need to get done. Allen suggests that many of the mental blocks we encounter are caused by insufficient 'front-end' planning (i.e., for any project we need to clarify what is to be achieved and what specific actions are needed to achieve it). It is most practical, according to Allen, to do this thinking in advance, generating a series of actions which we can later undertake without any further planning.\nAllen contends that our mental \"reminder system\" is inefficient and seldom reminds us of what we need to do at the time and place that we can do it. Consequently, the \"next actions\" act as an external support which ensures that we are presented with the right reminders at the right time.\nThe core principles of GTD are:\nThe notion of stress-free productivity starts with off-loading what needs to get done from one's head, capturing everything that is necessary to track, remember, or take action on, into what Allen calls a bucket: a physical inbox, an email inbox, a tape recorder, a notebook, a PDA, a desktop, etc. The idea is to get everything out of one's head and into a collection device, ready for processing. All buckets should be emptied (processed) at least once per week.\nWhen processing a bucket, a strict workflow is required. If it takes under two minutes to do something, it should be done immediately. The two-minute rule is a guideline, encompassing roughly the time it would take to formally defer the action.\nAllen describes a suggested set of lists which can be used to keep track of items awaiting attention, including a calendar which is important for keeping track of appointments and commitments; however, Allen specifically recommends that the calendar be reserved for the hard landscape: things which absolutely have to be done by a particular deadline, or meetings and appointments which are fixed in time and place. To-do items should be reserved for the next action lists.\nThe lists of actions and reminders will be of little use if not reviewed at least daily, or whenever possible. Given the time, energy and resources available at a particular moment, one must decide the most important task to be done immediately, and do it. If one is inclined to procrastinate, one may end up always doing the easy tasks and avoiding the difficult ones. To solve this, one can decide to do the actions of the list one by one, following their order, just like processing an inbox.\nAny organizational system is no good if excessive time is spent organizing tasks instead of actually doing them. Allen's contention is that if one can make it simple, easy, and fun to take the necessary actions, one will be less inclined to procrastinate or become overwhelmed with too many 'open loops'.\nPhew! It's a lot, but it's a lot of useful information and a foolproof system once you get it all down.\nAnother book that I strongly recommend because it has helped me immensely when it comes to managing myself and keeping on track is: \"The Emotional Intelligence Quick Book\"\nAnyone who has decent organization skills should not buy this book. The whole book reiterates itself over and over and over and over and.... you get the picture. Let me summarize the book. Have a file cabinet and use it. Have a basket and put everything you have to do in it. Get everything off your mind by writing it down. Finally, go to your office supply store and load up on office supplies and organization products. After the first 75 pages, it becomes very redundant.\ncarbonbiker More than 1 year ago\nThis is a great book. It came highly recommended by a friend who is an astronaut and has a very challenging work schedule. I've nearly finished reading it - for the first time, and I think I'll read it again and take better notes. But the editing in the ebook version is HORRIBLE. The editor may not realize you need spaces between ALL the words, not just some of them. There are sentences where you have to delete or add a word for it to make sense. I'm sure this isn't how the book was written, but the publisher needs to issue us an update. I'd give it five stars for content, but 1 star for editing - so I'm splitting the difference and calling it a three.\nStaseek More than 1 year ago\nWhat's the reason for me to have NOOK if paperback is $9.52 and ebook is $13?\nnickerbocker4181 More than 1 year ago\nSince reading this book about six months ago I've implemented the GTD system. Immediately when reading, I sensed the deep wisdom and soundness latent in the pages. I have a utilitarian and pragmatic personality (INTJ) so naturally I have great affinity for material of this sort. I especially value the flexibility of this workflow system. It can be applied with paper and folders, PDA's, Outlook, Excel, and other applications as well. Each individual can customize the general framework to suite his or her own needs and taste. I found the material theoretically sound, useful, and easy to incorporate into my life. I don't feel stressed despite engaging in many responsibilities. I've discovered from using this material in my life so far that it frees my mind to think more on the things of others and reach out to more people in my life. It has also helped me to realize what I'm truly capable of doing in a given period of time. I also don't let \"small\" details seep through the cracks in life (such as paying a credit card bill on time, or remembering to buy a card for my friends birthday.) I also am intrigued by how GTD seems to dovetail nicely with a spiritual side of life. I highly recommend this book! It has helped me live my life with greater richness and fulness.\nKim50 More than 1 year ago\nHe speaks against making to-do lists! this time mgmt book is the only one I've ever re-read, and put to use so thoroughly. The big difference between this and every other similar title is the peace of mind I now have that I never felt before. His methods get it all out of my head so I close my eyes at night trusting my system so I can sleep. His martial arts analogy is apt and has made me more able to catch and make full use of every twist in my day. I AM NO LONGER UP TO MY A** IN ALLIGATORS. Thank you Mr. Allen.\nPayne26 More than 1 year ago\nYes, file it under \"Stuff You Already Know,\" but with a footnote: \"That Most of Us Need to be Told Anyway.\" I've been using the system for about 6 months now and am genuinely surprised that the promised improvements in efficiency and the freedom to think clearly about big-picture issues are real. I originally borrowed this book from a colleague who had recommended it, but decided to splash out on my own copy once I became a devotee.\nIf you don't have time for one more thing in your life, read Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity. While that advice may seem counterproductive, and a little crazy, (where will you find time to read it?) this book will assuredly give you some realistic advice about getting all those projects completed while staying sane. This first thing that's apparent about this book is the author's enthusiasm. He presents workable solutions with this contagious 'can-do' attitude. He uses a basic premise that everything we do\u00bfwhether it's an assignment or work-related task\u00bfhas a specific place and time. Once that's understood, it's easier to put those activities into the right slot in our lives. This provides a sense of freedom even though deadlines are mounting. Time is no longer the enemy it's merely the container. By having all these tasks in their proper places, it's almost like opening a filing cabinet, working on a specific project, then replacing the file and closing the drawer. There is a start and finish time and everything gets done. That terrible overwhelming feeling vanishes. Another interesting aspect the author develops is how to achieve those wonderful moments when we are so in tune with our work, that it's really effortless. His strategies for managing time actually open up the unconscious mind by freeing it of negative stress. In other words, when our work is properly scheduled, we are cut loose of time constraints and are able to grab hold of maximum creativity and productivity. Even though there are still deadlines to meet, we would have already dealt with them before starting the project. Time is put in its proper place as well. While author David Allen's advice is really on the mark, at times his system gets a little complicated. He coins some fancy terms and sub-terms that make these principles seem complex. But the gist of his ideas is presented on a one-page flowchart that makes the price of this book worthwhile. This single page is a terrific review of the key concepts. Although some of his ideas may seem like good old- fashioned common sense, the author takes these thoughts and puts them within a system that operates in the contemporary workplace. Readers should be prepared to actually try out these ideas and not just read the book and put it on a shelf. Have a notebook handy to start organizing your thoughts and begin prioritizing your actions based on the advice presented. One of the best pieces of advice, and one that can be immediately put into action, is the Two-Minute Rule. This states that if you need to do something and you can do it in two minutes or less, do it now, and therefore free up your mind and time. Ultimately, by completing these smaller, quicker tasks, you will gain an enormous amount of time and freedom of thought for those larger assignments. It works! These pages have the power to unlock you from the chains of time that limit your actions and thinking. When you are finished reading this book, you will have learned some genuine principles that can be put into your life right now. The investment of time you put into reading this book will increase your productivity level and decrease your stress.\nI was optimistic about the title, so the marketing works. I suppose I was looking for a magic bullet. Since I was already doing what is in the book, I found no new answers there. I may be slanted in my view, but the book seems to assume its target audience are people who are not already performing the steps are outlined in the text. Whereas, I would expect people who find this book by title are already trying various methods and not succeeding, and are the people who look for book that may provide new direction. In my view, the book shoots down traditional methods, and then offers the same traditional methods without even repackaging. It just did not work for me. Scan the book before buying, I had not. It may be right for others, but had little to offer me.\nZadig13 More than 1 year ago\nExcellent system & tools. Yes the concepts are simple, yes you probably could have thought of each of them on your own. But you didn't and neither did I because we are too busy. This simple approach has been very helpful in managing workload and sanity. The challenge is the discipline to keep up with the system. If you are struggling to keep up with tasks, projects, emails, personal goals etc. I highly recommend this book.\nGTD, with a few small personal modifications changed thee way I live, plain and simple. I work, play, and live right out of my system now and nothing falls through the cracks. The lessons on how to deal with tasks, writing everything down, and reviewing and following up regularly are what propelled me from Systems Administrator to Technical Manager at my company.\nBrien_Convery More than 1 year ago\nThe IBM Competitive Edge Book Club, open to all Sales, Marketing, and Communication professionals at IBM, voted and selected \"Getting Things Done\" as the Q4 2011 book selection. Overall feedback from the members was very good. In the feedback from the members, we ask them the question - \"What will you do differently in your job since your study of this book?\" Some of the replies directly from the members included: - \"It has given me renewed enthusiasm to re-establish my use of GTD concepts.\" - \"Apply and revisit GTD best practices consistently.\" - \"Evaluating my time management techniquest to be more effective in 2012!\" - \"Better organize my in-box and track my activities/goals via the electronic calendar.\" - \"Remind myself of what is the outcome of each action.\" I would like to personally thank David for being apart of the IBM Competitive Edge Book Club experience and for \"Getting Us Organized\" for 2012! Best Regards, Brien Convery IBM Business Operations Leader and Competitive Edge Book Club Leader\nI have studied various organizational and time management methods for 20 years. I have found nothing that compares to the liberty and effectiveness of this method. I've been using this method for over 1-1/2 years now. I also highly recommend David Allen's book, Ready For Anything. It has many tips, thought-provoking ideas, and methods to reduce stress and accomplish more with your work time as well as your own time. I highly recommend both books and their audios. I use the audio CDs when I am not able to take the time to read, but have the time to listen. I have made their audio CDs into audio MP3s, and I have put them on my iPod for use whenever and wherever. I find that an occasional review of these tips and methods helps put me back on track when I have let some portion of the method slip. When I started using these methods, I found that I first had to implement a portion of his method, and when I had that working, then I added in another portion. If you do not review and upkeep the steps he suggests, you will not see the same amount of good results as you do when you use his methods. David Allen's website offers free tips and gives a location to sign up for free emails with productivity tips. I have recommended and have purchased these books for others, as well as myself.\nSahaj More than 1 year ago\nI really enjoyed this book, and I am more organized and productive for having read it! David Allen writes in a very easy to follow and personable style, and turns what could have been a very dry subject into an engaging discourse on improving productivity in all areas of your life. Although his book is geared to those in business, he makes it very accessible for those of us in other fields, and gives many examples of how to integrate this system into our personal lives,too. I loved the 5 Stages of Mastering Workflow, and also his explanation of why \"to do\" lists are just not working for so many of us. If you need a better system for managing your business and your life, this book can help you get there!\ninvest_in_movies More than 1 year ago\nI am involved in so many activities and my desk was an utter mess. But this book really helped me get a grip on my clutter and set up a system that really works. The book is an easy read and the author has a really friendly tone. Would I recommend this to my friends? Yes! I already have.\nEJones More than 1 year ago\nDavid Allen's \"GTD\" (Getting Things Done) system is excellent. It's a process that you go through over a period of time. You won't be able to implement the whole system \"in one sitting\" - but this book definitely helps in several ways: - You can implement specific tips (i.e. one of his tips on setting up internet folders is awesome) - You can implement specific practices (i.e. examples of lists, agendas) - You can try to implement the entire system (would recommend doing in phases) Given the amount of info most professionals have to contend with today, this book is an awesome manual of how to stay on top of things - both personnaly and professionally.\nThe book\u00bfs title is a winner. Allen\u00bfs premise is excellent: \u00bfOur productivity is directly proportional to our ability to relax. Only when our minds are clear and our thoughts organized can we achieve effective results and unleash our creative potential.\u00bf Allen has spent more than 20 years as a business trainer and coach in the field of productivity. He likens the brain to the random access memory (RAM) of the computer. The more tasks it works on simultaneously, the slower and less productive it becomes. In the book, he describes the productivity system that he has developed to remove brain clutter. His system does not put much emphasis on prioritizing. Nor does it give much weight to a lack of time being a restraining factor. Instead, he focuses on the issues of \u00bflack of clarity and definition.\u00bf Allen concentrates on mastering the flow of work so that your brain will not become cluttered with non-essential subjects. By doing so, he wants his readers to escape lower level thinking and concentrate on a higher level of thinking. Allen states that \u00bfphysical organization must be better than mental organization for that to happen.\u00bf One caveat of that line of thinking is to have multiple lists or folders or online software whereby you can list categories of tasks \u00bfaccording to locations and functions.\u00bf The thrust of his presentation is found in Chapter 8, \u00bfProcessing: Getting \u00bfIn\u00bf to Empty.\u00bf His method involves putting all tasks in an \u00bfIn\u00bf basket, and then examining each one individually. If the task can be accomplished within two minutes, it is to be done immediately. If not, it should flow into one of three categories which are self-explanatory: 1) Trash 2) Incubate 3)Reference. Allen\u00bfs definition of a project, the ultimate productivity goal, is rather novel---an \u00bfoutcome requiring more than one step.\u00bf Also, his use of the calendar for an entry is rather interesting. His viewpoint of a calendar entry is that it should be done that day or not all. It is not to be moved under any circumstances. The book is liberally sprinkled with quotations on productivity to leaven his rather boring, flat, and meandering presentations in each chapter. The book concentrates on paper flow, and does not address practical issues, such as handling phone calls, appointments, work overload, distractions, and other productivity issues.\nThis book helped me to overcome email overload. I was overwhelmed with thousands of emails in my inbox and didn't know how I could get a handle on the problem until I read this book. Now all my communications are in the right categories and I am continually up to date. This book is a practical system for day to day efficiency. I definitely recommend Dr Rosalene Glickman's book, Optimal Thinking: How to Be Your Best Self in conjunction with this book. Optimal Thinking optimized my thought process and taught me how to resolve thoughts and feelings that reduce my effectiveness. Dr Glickman recommended David Allen's system in an Optimal Thinking seminar I attended.\nThis book is for all those who are overwhelmed with too many things to do, too little time to do them, and a general sense of unease that something important is being missed. Everyone has experienced times when everything seemed effortless, and progress limitless. David Allen has captured ways for you to achieve that wonderful state of mind and consciousness more often. His key concept is that every task, promise, or assignment has a place and a time. With everything in its proper place and time, you feel in control and replace the time spent on vague worrying with effective, timely action. As a result, the accomplishments grow while the pressure to accomplish decreases. As a result, the book contains many insights into 'how to have more energy, be more relaxed, and get a lot more accomplished with much less effort.' The key psychological insight of this book is that rapid progress occurs when you take large, unformed tasks, and break them down and organize them into smaller, sequential steps for exactly what to do and when. The book provides lots of guidance and examples for how to do this. The book is organized into three sections. The first gives you an overview of the whole process for how to get more done in a relaxed way. The second spells out the details of how to implement that process, in a way that a personal coach might use. The third provides subtle insights that help you appreciate the benefits that follow from using the process. Like all good coaches, Mr. Allen understands that appreciating a subject from several perspectives and getting lots of practice with it are critical steps in learning. The process advocated by this book is described with lots of systems flow charts that will appeal to all of the engineers and left-brained people. The right-brained people will find lots of discussions about emotions, feelings, and stress. So both types of thinkers should do well with this material. The essence of the process is that you write down a note about everything when you take on a new responsibility, make a new commitment, or have a useful thought. All of this ends up in some kind of 'in' box. You then go through your 'in' box and decide what needs to be done next for each item. For simple issues, this includes identifying the action you should take first and when to take it. For tougher issues, you schedule an appropriate time to work the problem in more detail. You organize the results of this thinking, and review your options for what you should be doing weekly. Then you take what you choose to do, and act. Think of this process as the following five steps: (1) collect (2) process (3) organize (4) decide (5) act. For the tougher problems, you start with identifying your purpose and principles so you know why you care how it all turns out. Then you imagine the potential good outcomes that you would like. Following that, you brainstorm with others the best way to get those outcomes. Then you organize the best pathway. Finally, you identify the first actions you need to take. Then you act, as in step 5 above. From this outline, I hope that you can see that this is not rocket science. It is simple common sense,\nWork: Anything that exists in your world that you look at and 'wish' was different from current reality. In that case, most of what we see around us could be considered work; in today's world, it seems to be work that necessitates knowledge. How much we know, and how we apply that information is the cutting edge between high productivity and burn-out. Real advice for real \u00bfknowledge workers.\u00bf Do you feel overwhelmed by the \u00bfproblem\u00bf of infinite opportunity? How good could that next project be? How prepared for that meeting could your direct report be? When do you stop working on one project in light of the value-add that would come in beginning another? For those of you with \u00bftoo much to do, and not enough time to do it in,\u00bf productivity guru (as Fast Company magazine has labeled him) David Allen provides a no-nonsense, fire-tested system that will make sense of your open loops. The Getting Things Done methodology offers a practical yet elegant solution to staying on top of your work, whether it\u00bfs a personal project like landscaping your yard, to that new B2B site that you\u00bfre launching next week. David Allen's approach to managing yourself and your world may well be the best advice you'll ever receive. Included are tips and tricks that lead the readers toward learning, practicing and developing techniques for improving personal productivity and individual satisfaction. The behavior sets you practice will prove useful, and add a \u00bfsustainable\u00bf element to your work/life style. Buy this book, read it, and watch your productivity AND energy go up!\nWhen this book was written in 2001 the workplace was very different. While the basics of his method still hold true, the tools he recommends are nearly stone-age. I found myself rejecting item after item in favor of tools and apps available today. Plan on thinking very hard about substituting, for example, Evernote for the separate pieces of paper that the author is so fond of, scanners for most of the paper files and your smartphones voice recorder for most of the notetaking. His overall process, however, is stellar and actually works better with up to date tools than it ever could have using paper and folders. Highly recommended for content, but the amount of work required to make the revisions for today's workplace myself kept me from giving it 5 stars.\ngadfly1974 More than 1 year ago\nGetting Things Done is a fantastic read. I highly recommend it! The most important lesson I took from this book is that everything belongs on a list. Once you get tasks out of your head and onto paper you can stop worrying about them and start doing them. The author calls this clearing your mental RAM and having a mind like water. Another important skill is creating a single In basket for all tasks. Sure, some things are more important than others. But how can you achieve world peace when you haven&rsquo;t done the grocery shopping or changed the oil in your car? Finally, it&rsquo;s important to do what you can when you&rsquo;re surrounded by the materials you need. It doesn&rsquo;t do you any good to remember you need tuna packed in water when you&rsquo;re at the car wash. And if you&rsquo;re experiencing low energy, do something simple like replying to a couple of quick emails. This book has revolutionized my workflow and brought me a level of peace I didn&rsquo;t know was possible when balancing so many different roles.

Adams (Contribution by), Alestine Andre (Contribution by), Robert L. Bettinger (Contribution by)Bruce D. Smith\nThe Subsistence Economies of Indigenous North American Societies provides a comprehensive and in-depth documentation of how Native American societies met the challenges of adapting to the varied ecosystems of North America over the past 10,000 years. The contributors identify a number of recurrent themes and questions which have shaped debates regarding the nature of Native American interaction with and impact on their local environments throughout the Holocene. The volume features full ecosystem coverage of North America, detailing the use of wild plant and animal resources in each of eight broadly defined geographical regions. The independent domestication of eastern North American plants and the subsequent introduction of domesticated crops, first from Mexico and subsequently from Eurasia, are described in detail, as is the introduction of Eurasian domesticated livestock, and the role of the turkey, the dog, and tobacco in indigenous North American societies. Drawing from this rich analysis, the volume closes by considering the ways in which and the degree to which Native American societies actively shaped their natural environments.\nBruce D.

The many stages of domestication and the acceptance of other crops from outside the region demonstrate beautifully the opportunities and challenges of this fundamentally-important process, and the relationship between small, dispersed groups of hunter gatherers in its development over the past 10,000 years tells a story of great interest for all students of the continent and its nature.",

John Conyers takes questions about his re-election at the Detroit Regional Chamber office. (Photo11: Kirthmon F.Dozier/Detroit Free Press )\nWayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett now says she does not believe U.S. Rep. John Conyers has enough valid signatures to qualify for the Aug. 5 primary ballot.\nShe confirmed this afternoon that she received a letter from Detroit City Clerk Janice Winfrey Wednesday night saying that the date that two people who collected signatures for the Conyers campaign were legally registered to vote had been changed from Dec. 13, 2013, to April 28, 2014.\n\u201cWith that being said and with the dates being changed from Ms. Winfrey\u2019s office, it says at this time that the congressman would not have enough signatures,\u201d Garrett said.\nShe said it wasn\u2019t clear why the dates of voter registration were changed, and she referred questions about it to Winfrey, who wasn\u2019t immediately available for comment this afternoon. Garrett said her office isn\u2019t involved in deciding matters about qualified voter lists.\nConyers turned in 2,000 signatures on April 18 and Garrett\u2019s office found that 1,193 of those signatures were valid. State law says that Conyers needs at least 1,000 valid signatures and they must come from and be gathered by registered voters. At least two of the circulators for Conyers, who collected more than 300 signatures, were not registered to vote at the time they collected signatures, according to Winfrey.\n\u201cI do not have the authority to input anything into the qualified voter file, remove, change, etc., anything,\u201d Garrett said. \u201cThat\u2019s between Janice Winfrey\u2019s office and Ruth Johnson, the secretary of state.\u201d\nGarrett said she\u2019s suspects the matter may wind up in court because there were documents with seals and signatures saying that the two signature gatherers were registered voters as of December 2013, which she said her staff checked against the qualified voter filed and confirmed. The Secretary of State does not have any record of the two individuals trying to register at SOS branch offices in December, said Chris Thomas, director of elections for the SOS.\n\u201cAnd now it\u2019s changed,\u201d Garrett said. \u201cI do understand that mistakes happen. We make them all the time. But that\u2019s not a thoughtless process, either one of those.\u201d\nGarrett teared up at the end of a brief interview with the Free Press, saying that she knows Conyers personally and, until recent redistricting, he had been the only congressman who had ever represented her. She conceded that the signature mess was personally painful for her to watch.\n\u201cFor all of the historical value, all of the pride that I feel to say he is a United States congressman,\u201d she said, \u201ceven if I didn\u2019t know him personally, that pride would be there, and this is quite unfortunate.\u201d\nThe decision from Garrett opens up two possibilities for Conyers:\n\u25a0An appeal of the ruling that he doesn\u2019t have enough valid signatures on his petitions. Conyers can appeal to either the Secretary of State or the Wayne County Circuit Court.\nHe may have some case law on his side for that route. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1998 that petition circulators for ballot initiatives did not have to be registered voters to collect signatures.\nIn addition, the U.S. District Court for the western district of Michigan ruled in 2009 that petition circulators trying to gather signatures for a recall petition against then state Rep. Andy Dillon, D-Redford, didn\u2019t need to be residents of the district or registered to vote to collect signatures.\n\u201cThe Court finds that the registration and residency restrictions for recall-petition circulators are just as burdensome as the unquestionably unconstitutional registration and residency restrictions on initiative- and candidate-petition circulators because the restrictions substantially decrease the pool of potential circulators,\u201d the court ruled at the time.\nA federal court made the same ruling in 2004 when Ralph Nader ran for president as an independent.\nThomas said he doesn\u2019t believe there is case law to support an appeal because the other cases haven\u2019t specifically dealt with partisan candidates for office, just independents and ballot initiatives.\n\u201cNobody has ever spoken at an appellate level on partisan candidates in a primary,\u201d he said. \u201cThere is nothing that we would look at to say the Michigan law is bound by this court decision.\u201d\nRichard Winger, who has worked for 50 years to increase access to the ballot and who writes the monthly newsletter \u201cBallot Access News,\u201d said all the case law points to allowing those signatures to remain valid.\n\u201cEven if it dealt with independent candidates, you can\u2019t parse the issue,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is a free speech issue.\u201d\n\u25a0Conyers can run as a write-in candidate for Congress, a tactic that was used unsuccessfully by former state Sen. Nancy Cassis, R-Novi, after U.S. Rep. Thad McCotter, R-Livonia, was booted from the ballot for fraudulent petitions. It was also the method for Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan in the primary race for mayor last year after if was determined he missed the deadine window to turn in his qualifying papers.\nIf it comes down to an appeal or a write-in, it would be a stunning blow to Conyers, 84, who was first elected to Congress in 1964 and has become a leading liberal voice in Congress. He\u2019s also the only African American in Michigan\u2019s congressional delegation.\nCalls to attorneys for Conyers and Sheffield were not immediately returned Friday. Conyers\u2019 office also didn\u2019t return phone calls for comment on the issue.\nRead or Share this story: http://www.battlecreekenquirer.com/story/news/2014/05/02/congressman-john-conyers-doesnt-have-enough-signatures-to-make-august-ballot-clerk-says/8622681/",

        "title": "Health Insurance Post ACA Part Two",
        "raw_content": "Averting one\u2019s eyes has become a common strategy for agents operating in the individual health insurance market. That\u2019s because so many of the unforeseen consequences of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) have been ugly. Agents have been marginalized. They\u2019ve seen their commissions tank. And they\u2019ve gotten trapped in the ACA\u2019s bureaucratic morass. Still, tens of thousands of agents have persisted because they believe in the mission of helping their fellow Americans get and keep health insurance.\nAs discussed in Part 1 of this series, health insurance agents have managed the revenue crunch by laying off employees and/or by reducing customer-support hours. Some have considered adding fees to the health-insurance purchase, even though the legal impact of that is cloudy. Finally, others have considered adding insurance products such as life, annuities, final expense, and Medicare-related health products to take up the slack. The last product category has great appeal because Medicare insurance\u2014Medigap, Medicare Advantage, and Prescription Drug Plans\u2014is poised to benefit from five hugely promising trends.\nGrowth in the Medicare Population: According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Medicare Parts A and/or B covered 58 million Americans in 2017, an increase of 14 million since 2007, when about 44 million people were enrolled. Even though the baby boom demographic bulge is narrowing, about 2.5 million will enter the program annually, representing about 7,000 a day, says Colleen Gimbel, Vice President of Strategic Alliances, Berwick Insurance Group. What\u2019s more, she says that by 2020, more than 13,000 people a day will turn 65, and the total Medicare pool by that point will attain 65 million.\nLooking further out, the AARP Policy Institute projects that the Medicare beneficiary population will reach 79 million by 2030, an increase of more than 100 percent over the year 2000. Many experts believe this will lead to a long-term spike in Medicare insurance sales. For instance, CGS Actuarial, LLC, a consulting firm in Omaha, Nebraska, expects total Medicare supplement in-force policies to grow from roughly 13.7 million today to more than 22 million in 2025. This represents an increase in new annualized premium from $4.5 billion in 2017 to $6.9 billion, as well as a hike in average premium (from $2,230 to $2,241) and in percentage of Medicare beneficiaries buying the product (from 23.2 percent to 29.8 percent).\nIf you consider future growth in consumers purchasing other Medicare products (Medicare Advantage and PDP), it\u2019s hard to deny that the demand for these products is not only substantial today . . . but headed even higher.\nContinuing Growth in Healthcare Expenditures: Most experts believe healthcare expenses will continue to inflate for decades to come. According to CMS, the nation\u2019s health expenditures grew 5.8 percent in 2015 to $3.2 trillion, representing 17.8 percent of U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Meanwhile, Medicare spending has inflated 4.5 percent to $646.2 billion in 2015 or 20 percent of total America\u2019s healthcare budget. As if that weren\u2019t frightening enough, CMS projects total health spending to grow at an average rate of 5.6 percent per year from 2016 to 2025, or 1.2 percentage points faster than GDP growth over the same period.\nLongevity/Morbidity Experience: It\u2019s well known that Americans are living longer than ever. And those that survive into their 80s and 90s tend to develop more chronic illnesses. For example, according to CMS, a 2010 study of Medicare beneficiaries revealed a high prevalence of chronic conditions, including high blood pressure (58 percent of the pool), high cholesterol (45 percent), heart disease (31 percent), arthritis (29 percent), and diabetes (28 percent). What\u2019s worse, CMS found that more than two-thirds of Medicare beneficiaries (or 21.4 million people) had at least two or more chronic illnesses, further increasing their medical costs and Medicare claims.\nRising HealthCare Expense Burden: Given the numbers just cited, is it any wonder that the average retiree is scared silly about how much his or her future healthcare will cost, even with Medicare coverage? According to a study conducted by HealthView Services, developer of healthcare cost-projection software, a 65-year-old couple that retires in 2017 will face total healthcare costs of $607,662 in future dollars. This assumes the man lives to 87 and the woman to 89 and that together they have a modified adjusted gross income of under $170,000. The cost projections are for their Medicare Parts B and D, their Medicare supplement premium, and their total out-of-pocket costs for things like dental and vision. \u201cThis figure may come as a surprise to those transitioning from the workforce who only pay (approximately) 25% of group-plan premiums,\u201d the HealthView Services report states. \u201cIn retirement, Americans become responsible for 100% of their health care expenses, including premiums, copays, deductibles, and all other out-of-pockets.\u201d Also concerning is the fact that HealthView expects the retirement healthcare inflation rate of 5.47 percent to exceed the average Social Security Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) of 2.6%. This means retirees will see their medical expenses consume a larger bite of their gross Social Security income, leaving them with less disposable income year after year.\nOriginal Medicare Gaps and the Challenge of Filling Them: You probably know original Medicare is far from the ideal health insurance plan. Yes, while original Medicare (Part A for hospital, nursing home, and hospice stays; Part B for doctors\u2019 services, outpatient medical care, durable medical equipment, and other services), covers your clients\u2019 healthcare expenses up to a point, it has no limit on out-of-pocket expenses. So if their medical bills for an illness soar above what Medicare allows, they\u2019ll be on their own nickel. What\u2019s more, Medicare Part A\u2019s hospital and nursing home benefit imposes a deductible for each benefit period and co-insurance payments that increase with length of stay. And Medicare Part B levies a deductible, as well, along with making beneficiaries responsible for 20 percent of their costs after that.\nOnce clients decode these Medicare gaps, then they will face a long list of services that aren\u2019t covered, including routine eye exams and most eyeglasses, dental care and dentures (for the most part), outpatient prescription drugs, routine hearing tests, weight management programs, long-term and custodial care (as opposed to skilled nursing home care), and most chiropractic services, acupuncture, and healthcare obtained outside the U.S. But hold on . . . it gets even dicier. Because now consumers have to plow through five possible gap-filling scenarios:\nOriginal Medicare (Parts A and B) with a Drug Plan (Medicare Part D)\nOriginal Medicare (Parts A and B) with a Medicare Supplement (to cover deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance, but not prescription drugs)\nOriginal Medicare (Parts A and B) with Medicare Supplement AND Drug Plan (Part D)\nMedicare Advantage (Parts A, B, and C . . . i.e., Medicare Advantage with expanded medical coverage and no gaps, except for drug coverage)\nMedicare Advantage (full coverage, including drugs: Parts, A, B, C, and D)\nAs you can see, determining how to fill the gaps, with what, and at what cost is not intuitive; entire books have been written on these trade offs. As you might expect, consumers look at their options, scratch their heads, and say, \u201cHuh?\u201d In fact, according to a 2015 study of 16,000 consumer calls to Medicare helplines by the Medicare Rights Center, determining when and to enroll in Medicare Part B can be especially vexing. So is understanding what\u2019s covered under Medicare Advantage and figuring out how to manage rising drug costs under Part D. And that\u2019s before someone figures out which of the five prior gap-filling options makes the most sense.\nIt all creates a tremendous need for knowledgeable, ethical health insurance agents to help hundreds of thousands of Americans make sensible insurance choices. But here\u2019s the problem. At a time when more people need help with their Medicare decisions, there are fewer agents left to help them. For one thing, the entire insurance sales/financial advisory business is getting grayer, with most agents being within five years of retirement and with no successor in place. For another, the health insurance market woes mentioned earlier have driven thousands of agents out of the market. Do you see where we\u2019re headed?\nIf you\u2019re a health insurance agent looking to rebuild your business or a life agent wanting to add a new product to your portfolio, then consider selling Medicare related insurance plans. The data suggests tremendous sales and income opportunities. But don\u2019t just focus on the quantitative case. Consider the satisfaction you\u2019ll derive from helping America\u2019s seniors stay healthy without going broke.\nInterested in learning more? Watch for Part 3 of this series, in which we\u2019ll discuss how to enter the Medicare insurance market.",

A backup in situ culture is maintained for two weeks after the case has been signed out.\nA neoplastic clone is detected when the percent of cells with an abnormal probe hybridization pattern indicative of gene rearrangement exceeds the threshold (normal reference range) established for each probe.\nSolid tumor cytogenetics can be an invaluable tool for diagnosing tumors of equivocal morphology. Unfortunately, as compared with hematological malignancies that are readily amenable to chromosome analysis, solid tumors present unique challenges, which can preclude an accurate cytogenetic diagnosis using conventional techniques. These include: 1) unpredictable growth of neoplastic cells in tissue culture, 2) overgrowth of neoplastic cells by \"reactive\" non-neoplastic cells, 3) destruction of tumor cultures by bacterial or fungal infection, and 4) failure of cells to grow in culture due to tissue non-viability. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) can overcome these problems as the assay can be performed on paraffin embedded tissue sections, which provides an opportunity to correlate cytogenetic events with morphology. Of course, these assays can also be performed on cultured cell preparations and can provide a definitive answer provided that the cells growing in culture are neoplastic.\nThe diagnosis of four solid tumors, in particular, can be aided by FISH analysis. These include myxoid liposarcoma, synovial sarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Myxoid liposarcoma (as well as round cell liposarcoma) is associated with the t(12;16)(q13;p11) which leads to fusion of the CHOP gene at 12p13 and the FUS gene at 16p11. Synovial sarcoma is associated in more than 90% of cases with the t(X;18)(p11.2;q11.2) that results in fusion of the SYT gene on chromosome 18 with one of two genes on the X chromosome (SSX1 or SSX2). Ewing sarcoma is associated with rearrangement of the EWSR1 gene on chromosome 22q with one of several partner genes, the most common being the FLI1 gene on chromosome 11 as a result of the t(11;22)(q24;q12). Alveolar rhabdomysarcoma is associated with rearrangement of the FOX01 gene that occurs as a result of the fusion of PAX3-FOX01 or PAX7-FOX01 genes. MDM2 gene amplification is often observed in liposarcomas including atypical lipomatous tumor/well-differentiated liposarcoma and dedifferentiated liposarcoma but is absent in benign lipomatous tumors.\nFive solid tumor FISH assays are offered:\nCHOP gene rearrangement associated with t(12;16) in myxoid liposarcoma\nSYT gene rearrangement (18q11.2) in synovial sarcoma\nEWSR1 gene rearrangement for t(v;22q) in Ewing's sarcoma\nFOX01 gene rearrangement (13q14) in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma\nMDM2 gene amplification to differentiate between well-differentiated liposarcoma and benign lipoma",

Picture: Dylan Vaughan\nIreland\u2019s best-known children\u2019s theatre company Barnstorm brings its acclaimed production of Monday\u2019s Child to Bedford next week.\nThe award-winning family play tells the simple poetic story of the unique bond between a little girl and an old woman suffering memory loss. Together in a dream-like garden, they sing, dance and dress up as they explore a treasure trove of memory boxes.\nAt opposite ends of the life cycle, the girl is building her vocabulary while the older woman appears to be losing hers. The use of made-up words makes sense to them both \u2013 a clock is a \u201ctime-ticker\u201d, binoculars are \u201cfaraways\u201d and when determining what day it is, the girl confidently informs the older woman that \u201cit\u2019s today!\u201d.\nMonday\u2019s Child was developed with input from neuroscientists at the University of Sussex and the Alzheimer\u2019s Society UK.\nWriter Brendan Murray said: \u201cIt came from a director whose mother-in-law has Alzheimer\u2019s and she was interested in the relationship between her mother and her children. So we started to look at the idea of memory and the relationship between different generations.\u201d\nMonday\u2019s Child was named as one of 2014\u2019s Theatre Top Ten by the Guardian.\nThe show comes to The Place on Tuesday April 11 at 2pm.

        "raw_content": "Home | Building Your Home Bar\nIf you\u2019ve been dreaming about having a bar in your home, get started. You don\u2019t need a contractor to be the expert on the job. That could take weeks when you could have one built in a day.\nDo some research and give yourself an idea of what you want. Then, put the plan into motion by piecing together the different materials you\u2019ll need. You\u2019ll be surprised how easy it is to build your own homebar.\nBlend or Standout\nDepending on where you decide to put your homebar, you might want to think about making it blend with the rest of your home or making it standout. If you are putting it in a room all its own, it can easily be designed to standout. But if it happens to be between two rooms where company roaming through is a very real possibility, then making it blend with the rest of your d\u00e9cor is a good idea.\nIn a room all its own, a bar looks great with a brick or wood d\u00e9cor. But, those aren\u2019t the only two options. Some bars I\u2019ve seen have had been finished in drywall. The rest of the d\u00e9cor was dressed with beer signs and beer mirrors. But for the other choices, definitely a faux brick or faux wood finish would look great and it wouldn\u2019t damage the budget.\nThe bar can easily be framed with 2 x 4s. Cover it with plywood. Then, finish. It really doesn\u2019t get any more difficult than that. But, it does depend on how intricate you try to get.\nAny local department store or hardware store should have cabinet doors you can use for the bar when you are finished. Build your frame. Then as I said before, nail the plywood to your frame. At this point, it\u2019s up to you what you want to do. I have finished off a bar with interlocking wood panels that I attached diagonally. Then, I used border to make eye catching designs that brought a touch of professionalism to the bar.\nOnce the bar is built and the cabinets are finished to match the bar, a few coats of lacquer can bring out a beautiful glossy finish. Now all you need are some bar stools and track lighting before you begin to decorate the rest.\nHave you ever thought about your local bar and wondered where they got their decorations? The beer signs and the beer mirrors are either funny, authentic, or just plain eye catching. The beer taps are name brand and always have unique designs. The beer glasses are also name brand and in all different shapes and sizes.\nOne thing about having your own homebar is the challenge of finding great collector\u2019s items to put on display. Once your bar is done, now your hunt begins. Don\u2019t go for junk just to cover the walls. Find things that bring out your personality. It\u2019s your bar. It\u2019s should be all about you.",

        "raw_content": "In fact, the pair have witnessed a cohesion amongst this year\u2019s group that perhaps didn\u2019t exist a year ago.\n\u201cI\u2019d say we are more of a team and have more chemistry,\u201d said Yake, who has established himself as arguably the league\u2019s best defensive shortstop. \u201cEveryone just seems like they are on the same page, and we do stuff as a team.\u201d\nTogetherness might very well be the key decider of whether or not Squalicum can recreate last season\u2019s success. With Sage and Yake as the Storm\u2019s only two legitimate returning starters, players with minimal varsity experience will have to start contributing right away.\nLikely candidates include Ben Wolters, Bunji McLeod, Will Nickelson, J.P. Pacheaco and Jack Boysen.\n\u201cWe got a lot of seniors that have been waiting their turn and are pretty hungry,\u201d Inge said. \u201cWe are still a veteran team.\u201d\nBut there\u2019s no doubt both Sage\u2019s and Yake\u2019s performance will be critical to the team\u2019s success. Sage, a left-handed pitcher who pounds the strike zone, delivered an unbelievable season last spring, posting a 9-0 record with a 0.58 regular-season ERA and a 0.66 postseason ERA.\nThe left-hander pitched behind staff ace David Stealy and Harper Moore, but this year Squalicum will need the senior to emerge as the team\u2019s No. 1.\n\u201cI\u2019m definitely excited, and I love that role because I always want to pitch in the big games,\u201d Sage said. \u201cThe ace title is a cool thing, and I\u2019m definitely excited to take that on this year and hopefully don\u2019t disappoint. I hope I can live up to it.\u201d\nHe should get help from Wolters and Nickelson and junior Sam Moore. Each are expected to eat up innings. Even Yake could chip in on the mound.\nBut Inge admitted he\u2019d like to keep his all-NWC first-teamer anchoring the left side of the infield as much as possible.\nAt the plate Yake should be a force, too. Last year he was a terrific lead-off man, but during the offseason he worked out in the weight room every morning and has added some extra hitting power.\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t just me,\u201d Yake said. \u201cI was trying to get others like Connor, Ben and J.P. They got in there. ... I\u2019ve always been driven to play the highest level of baseball, and so I guess I realized my weaknesses and did something about it.\u201d\nWith success comes more notoriety, and Inge said, for the first time in years, he had to cut kids from the program due to the large number of athletes turning out for baseball. While that\u2019s not the case everywhere in Whatcom County, there\u2019s no doubt baseball is thriving at Squalicum.\nFive pitchers to watch\nKyler Schemstad, Ferndale, Sr.\nSchemstad is a crafty lefty who had a great season last year and again will be the Golden Eagles\u2019 ace. He posted a 5-1 record with a 1.75 ERA last spring, and there\u2019s no reason to believe he again can\u2019t put up those numbers.\nConnor Sage, Squalicum, Sr.\nSage might not be able to replicate last year\u2019s numbers, but that\u2019s because he put together an unbelieveable statline going 6-0 with a 0.58 ERA in the regular season and 3-0 with a 0.66 ERA in the postseason. Now he\u2019s the team\u2019s unquestioned ace and should be in line for a great season.\nJonathan Starcer, Blaine, Sr.\nStarcer headlined the Borderites\u2019 rotation last year and was a big reason for Blaine\u2019s impressive season. With the hard-thrower returning, Blaine again could be poised for a big season.\nDerek Campfield, Meridian, Sr.\nThe big left-hander turned in a fine season last year and will be counted on to lead the Trojans this spring. Any time Campfield is on the mound, he gives Meridian a great chance to earn a win.\nFelix Zavisubin, Sehome, Jr.\nSurely the Mariners will need Zavisubin to have a big season, as he steps into the lead role on Sehome\u2019s pitching staff. Jake Albert and Leif Anderson are graduated, but Zavisubin last year showed what he\u2019s capable of, and the right-hander should have another good season.\nFive hitters to watch\nAustin Shenton, Bellingham, Sr., SS\nThe University of Washington commit can flat-out hit. He just might not get much of a chance to display that given the volume of free passes he receives. But Shenton is worth the watch, and will be the central piece to Bellingham\u2019s lineup.\nJordan Wittenberg, Lynden, Sr., SS\nWittenberg isn\u2019t far behind Shenton, if any, in the hitting department. The Seattle University-bound shortstop will be a force in the Lions\u2019 lineup and brings a whole lot of speed to the basepaths.\nOwen Wright, Sehome, Sr., C\nWright hit for a .424 average last year and was pivotal out of the Mariners\u2019 No. 3 hole. He\u2019s big time for Sehome\u2019s pitching staff and will drive in his share of runs this spring.\nErnie Yake, Squalicum, Sr., SS\nMost know of Yake\u2019s outstanding defensive play. He\u2019s usually good for at least one jaw-dropping play a game. But coach John Inge raved about how much stronger he\u2019s gotten, and surely that will help him turn some of those singles into extra-base hits.\nMatt James, Ferndale, Jr., DH/C\nJames made a huge impact for the Golden Eagles last year and established himself as one of the Northwest Conference\u2019s top young hitters. He showed an ability to hit for power and posted a .417 batting average.",

Visible only in darkness, there is no better way to see nature's light show than from a Hurtigruten voyage, away from city lights.\nHurtigruten's promise to you\nWinter is the perfect time to explore Norway's coast with beautiful snow covered landscapes to behold and, for many, seeing the Northern Lights is the highlight of visiting in this season.\nHurtigruten are so confident that you will experience the Northern Lights on one of their 12 day Norwegian coastal cruises that, from October to March, they offer a Northern Lights Promise: If you are unlucky enough that the Northern Lights don\u2019t occur during your voyage, Hurtigruten will offer you the chance to try again the next winter, free of charge.\nThe Northern Lights have mesmerised sailors and the people of the polar regions for generations. Aurora borealis occurs when solar winds are stronger than usual and so hurtle electrical charged particles away from the sun and towards the Earth's atmosphere. The amazing light displays are created upon these charged particles colliding with our atmosphere, 100km or more above the Earth's surface. The electromagnetic radiation creates undulating ribbons of light that vary in form and usually appear as green or red in the night sky.\nAlthough today we can explain the science behind their occurrence, one can't help but feel as though there is something magical about the Northern Lights, when beholding their unearthly splendour.\nHurtigruten promises you that you will see this amazing phenomenon during one of their Norwegian 12 day cruises when you visit during the winter season (October to March). And if you don't, they'll make sure you do the next year.",

        "raw_content": "Jesus Forgives and Heals\nNow it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them. Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him. And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus.\nWhen He saw their faith, He said to him, \u201cMan, your sins are forgiven you.\u201d\nAnd the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, \u201cWho is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?\u201d\nBut when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, \u201cWhy are you reasoning in your hearts? Which is easier, to say, \u2018Your sins are forgiven you,\u2019 or to say, \u2018Rise up and walk\u2019? But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins\u201d\u2014He said to the man who was paralyzed, \u201cI say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.\u201d\nImmediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, glorifying God. And they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, \u201cWe have seen strange things today!\u201d\nGod asks the Pharisees which is easier to forgive or to heal? I ask you what do you believe? Is not it one and the same as we are forgiven we are healed. Will you receive your healing today? Ask God for forgiveness.",

        "raw_content": "Experts urge govt. to regulate medical implants\nNew Delhi [India], Sep 12 (ANI): Given the 'faulty hip implants' of metal on the metal prosthesis, medical experts urged the government to establish a National Joint Replacement Registry to regulate medical implants and drugs for patients' safety.\nRaju Vaishya, a joint replacement surgeon, said that it is ironical that although about 4,700 patients received the 'faulty hip implants' in India, over 3,600 of them remain untraceable.\n\"Incidentally, there is no government body like National Joint Replacement Registry in our country, though the formation of such a body was suggested, many years ago. But, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) did not take any timely action on this matter, despite knowing the problems related to these implants since at least 2010. It is, therefore, a regulatory failure,\" said Vaishya.\nIn Metal on Metal hip implants, the metal ball and the metal cup slide against each other during walking or running. Metal can also be released from other parts of the implant where two implant components connect. Metal release, thus, causes some tiny metal particles to wear off of the device into the space around the implant which may enter the bloodstream.\nAtul Srivastava, Secretary, Indian Orthopaedic Association (IOA) also agreed to the idea of setting such a national body, which may be called National Joint Replacement Registry or National Healthcare Data Storage and Management Committee to stop the use of faulty implants or medical devices.\nAccording to researchers, more catastrophic failures of medical implants and devices are \"almost guaranteed\" to happen because there have been no significant reforms on the way in India, which regulates medical implants.

Mr. Othman has been fighting the U.S. Government\u2019s attempt to deport him for over two decades. While Mr. Adi has never been convicted of a crime, if you are not a United States citizen you need to be aware that even a minor conviction can trigger deportation.\nThere are instances when non-citizens of the United States who are visiting or living lawfully on the U.S. may face deportation based upon criminal charges. The law requires that courts notify individuals of the risk of deportation if convicted of a crime. This is true of both felony and misdemeanor offenses. While some minor misdemeanors are excluded, The Billak Law Office is currently challenging a no contest plea to an unclassified misdemeanor that resulted in merely a fine in 2007, but may trigger our client\u2019s inability to re-enter the States after attending a wedding in his native country. It is important to note that our client was and is here lawfully on a student Visa, but was not informed of the current consequences he faces if he chooses to attend his sister\u2019s wedding.

One of the great reasons why many people decide to travel is to celebrate Christmas and New Year. There is nothing better than spending a few days of holidays away from the cold weather and enjoy the beach, sun, and sand. That's why my family and I decided to travel to one of the most famous places in the Riviera Maya: Playa del Carmen. -The climate in Playa del Carmen is always warm. The Mexican Caribbean is distinguished by its incredible beauty and exquisite climate so run away from the cold like us and decide to enjoy a warm atmosphere and lots of sunshine!. One of the places you can visit in Playa del Carmen is Xcaret. This great theme park is undoubtedly one of the favorite destinations for all tourists traveling to the Riviera Maya in search of lots of fun and adventure. Here are some of the reasons why you should not miss the opportunity to visit Xcaret during the winter. -Xcaret is paradise. This place is an ecotourism park with over 40 activities such as underground rivers, a coral reef aquarium, the authentic Mayan ball game, an island of jaguars and the best gastronomy you can taste in Quintana Roo. I recommend that when you buy your tickets you buy them all-inclusive, so you can enjoy a delicious buffet meal and forget about hunger while you enjoy Xcaret. -Only in Xcaret will you be able to enjoy \"Xcaret Mexico Spectacular\" which is an unprecedented show about the history of Mexico. More than 300 artists are presented, including musicians, dancers, and singers. -Spending Christmas at Xcaret was undoubtedly one of the best experiences we could have had. We always associated Christmas with the North Pole and cold. Here we had the opportunity to get out of the routine and have a very hot Christmas. - Xcaret is not only a Park with different activities, but it is also really a trip through Mexico in whose trails the Mayan jungle is conjugated with culture and nature with traditions. Xcaret is the perfect place to understand and get to know the culture of Mexico. -Traditions and crafts. Mexican crafts and folkloric art are a fundamental part of the Mexican national identity. In Xcaret, you can enjoy a wide variety of picturesque Mexican customs and traditions such as rituals, dance, and music. We enjoy to the maximum the Mayan rituals that were witnessed during our visit. Without a doubt, traveling to Playa del Carmen and getting to know Xcaret was the best decision we could make. There was nothing better than spending Christmas and New Year's Eve surrounded by sun and beach. To arrive from Cancun airport, we used a Playa del Carmen transportation service that we booked at a Cancun company.

And historically opioid use was much more of a male problem but now women are equally affected as men, and young women of childbearing age are using opioids, and not insignificant numbers, and we are very concerned about trying to help these women get into recovery as quickly as possible as soon as they realize that they're pregnant to minimize any potential deleterious effects on their infant.\nMelanie: Do we have a certain group that's more at risk than others?\nDr. Costello: Well I think any young woman who is suffering with an opioid use disorder is at risk just by definition of addiction itself. Once she becomes pregnant, then she is at higher risk for poor outcomes if she's not engaged in treatment. And so we have a program at Boston Medical Center called Project RESPECT, which is for pregnant women with opioid use disorder, addiction. It's at the hospital, they get moved over to a medication assisted treatment and then managed very closely for the remained of their pregnancy. So far it was developed to provide that same level of care for the mother / infant days after the baby is born because that's a very stressful period for absolutely everyone. Having a baby is a big deal, and it's harder than we think it's going to be. And if you are not only a new mother, but in early recovery, and frequently these women are doing this on their own, the stresses are overwhelming.\nSo we wanted to create a medical home environment for mothers of infants so that they had a safe place to come to be seen often themselves as well as their baby in the same visit, and that every one of our primary care visits includes a wellness check for the mom. Because what we know is taking care of parents is the same as taking care of babies. If you take care of a mom and she's doing better, then her baby is going to thrive. If your focus is only on the baby but not on the baby's mom, then that baby has not as good a prognosis as if you care about the mom as well as the baby.\nMelanie: How do you think universal screening during pregnancy is providing an important opportunity for you providers to identify and treat these women with opioid use disorder? I mean if a pregnant woman comes in for a prenatal visit, is that when you find out about their disorder, about their addiction? Is it through the universal screening for pregnant women?\nDr. Costello: Well that's a really good question, and I actually don't care of the women while they're pregnant. I only take care of the mother / infant dyad after the baby is born. And so often women, at least in our hospital, will self-refer. They'll come in and say, \"I am a heroin addict and I need help, and I'm pregnant,\" and they will immediately get enrolled into Project RESPECT and be brought into the hospital to help them.\nI think in other settings there's a lot of guilt and shame associated with opioid use for young women who are pregnant, and I think in other settings people are not as open to hearing about it, and are not as able to help as we are. So I think that we're doing a good job being open, and as one of my moms in clinic said to me, \"Everyone knows if you're a heroin addict and you're pregnant, you need to go to BMC.\"\nMelanie: Wow, that's really very interesting. So tell us about some of the services, and your team which includes a multi-disciplinary team of various and sundry clinical professionals. Tell us about them.\nDr. Costello: Yeah, yeah it's a really rewarding experience for me as a pediatrician and running this team. So at this time we have two primary care pediatricians, myself and Dr. Sara Stulac. We have a nurse who works in our clinic. We have other team members like a patient navigator who helps us get appointments for patients. These poor moms have so many darn appointments after they go home from the hospital. The babies need some specialty appointments, the mom needs post-partum care, sometimes they need mental health appointments, Hepatitis C care, primary care for themselves, and we work hard to make sure that the mom doesn't fall through the cracks.\nA lot of times once the baby is born, the focus is all on the baby and nobody cares about the mom, but we are trying to really make sure that Mom has her therapist lined up, that Mom- if she needs to be on meds, has her addiction care lined up. But she has a primary care doctor that if she has Hepatitis C, which about 70% of our moms do, that we can get her engaged in curative care.\nSo that's what our team is for. We have a social worker who's deeply embedded in our team because at Boston Medical Center, every mother who goes through Project RESPECT is reported to Child Protection Services when the baby is delivered for an evaluation to make sure that it's safe for the baby to go home with the mom. In the vast majority of cases, any mom who came through Project RESPECT who's strong in her recovery does go home with her baby, but we need to be able to support her recovery so that that mother / infant care can stick together, and that's what we're very devoted to doing in our clinic.\nMelanie: So what about that psychosocial care, Dr. Costello, for the families to maximize that ability to successfully navigate that very difficult world of parenting and substance use recovery? Are these women afraid to get help or to be reported? And how do they react? How do you help them through this difficult time?\nDr. Costello: Well I think all of the things you just mentioned are absolutely true. There is a lot of fear and anxiety which makes total sense. If you have other children and you have lost custody of them because of your history, it's terrifying to imagine that happening with the new baby. So yes, we do a lot to support parents through that time and through their sort of anxiety and fear about that happening again.\nIf we know our moms really well, which we do because we see them monthly, it's really great for them to have a team that's paying attention to them, that's making sure they're doing everything they need to do, they're keeping every appointment, the baby is growing and thriving and looking great, they're maintaining a strong recovery. It really takes a lot for a baby to be taken away, and my moms that are very strong in their recovery who have lost other children to the DCS system will tell me, \"I know I was too sick to take care of my kids, and now I'm not,\" and that is really powerful- those are powerful words when you hear a mom say, \"I understand why that happened, and I'm desperate for it to not happen again,\" and we're desperately trying to help women maintain their recovery through the very challenging first couple of years post-partum.\nWhen one in five women, even without an opiate use disorder, is at risk for post-partum depression, imagine if you have a history- a mental health history, or a trauma history, and an addiction history, how high the risk is for you, and that's why we're here to kind of catch people when they feel like they're falling down.\nMelanie: Wow, your description is so inspiring, Dr. Costello. And how do you involve the patient and family engagement? And the providers on your team, how do they get maybe other siblings and the children involved in these visits?\nDr. Costello: Well it's such a great question. So I have a number of families now where the sort of index patient was a newborn, but then Mom is reunited with her older kids, and they come back to Mom, and then those children become patients also because we're trying to do a medical home model where all the children in one family will be followed either by me, or by Dr. Stulac, in a regular kind of primary care setting with some additional support in place for these families. Because it's kind of like the elephant in the room. If you have a mom in the room with three small children and she's in recovery, the most important thing in that room is that the mom maintains her recovery for the good of her kids. Her kids will thrive if she can do it, and it's not easy. It's not easy for anybody, and sometimes there are lapses without relapses, and we try to support people through it, and as long as we maintain really open and frank conversations, the prognosis is quite good.\nMelanie: So wrap it up for us with really your best information, what you want the listeners to know about Project RESPECT, and so far, the clinic that is helping so many women and their children in recovery, and stay together.\nDr. Costello: Right, well I think one thing that I would say as a pediatrician and a human being and a mother myself, is that a lot of the women that we see at this hospital have really suffered in their young lives long before we ever met them. Many of them have trauma histories, lots of them their parents had trouble with addiction, alcohol or heroin themselves, and we are really working hard to educate people about the fact that this is not their fault.\nWe don't treat them with scorn or derision, we treat them with respect and compassion, and we tell them like, \"We're going to work hard with you to prevent this from happening to this adorable baby that's sitting here in my arms. We want to see how we can intervene with this cycle of trauma and substance abuse so that your child is not back here in fifteen years in exactly the same boat.\"\nMelanie: Thank you so much, Dr. Costello, for being with us today and for the wonderful program that you're running there at Boston Medical Center. This is Boston Med Talks with Boston Medical Center. For more information on the SOFAR Clinic, you can go to www.BMC.org. That's www.BMC.org. This is Melanie Cole, thanks so much for listening.",

        "raw_content": "Gods of Style: Jeff Goldblum\nBY Josh Islas\nJeff Goldblum knows a thing or two about the finer things, and he prefers to wear a Cartier\u2026\nSome things just get better with age, and nobody personifies this sentiment more than Jeff Goldblum. His style and persona have electrified Hollywood for years, and seeing as he is slated to appear in no less than five films this year, it looks like he has no intention of slowing down.\nHe has starred in some of the highest grossing movies in the modern era, including the Jurassic Park and Independence Day series. His talents aren\u2019t just limited to box-office blockbusters, as he has also starred in some of the silver screen\u2019s most celebrated films such as The Fly, The Life Aquatic, and the stop-motion animated Wes Anderson film Isle of Dogs. As if that wasn\u2019t enough, when he\u2019s not busy breaking box-office records he frequently drops by his favorite L.A. jazz club to shoot the breeze and jam with his friends.\nJeff Goldblum sporting a Cartier Tank Santos\nFor a person of his status and celebrity, you would expect a taste in watches with an eye-watering price point. Surprisingly enough, Goldblum\u2019s watch collection is incredibly modest. His watch of choice? The Cartier Tank Santos.\nWhy Jeff Goldblum isn\u2019t a Cartier ambassador is anyones question\n\u201cI\u2019m really not consumerist\u2026I don\u2019t need anything grand\u201d, he says in his interview with Shortlist. While that may not mean much coming from a guy worth north of $40 million wearing a $10,000 outfit, the reality is most celebrities are sporting watches well in excess of $100k.\nJeff Goldblum wore his Cartier Tank Santos while receiving his Hollywood Star recently\nIt\u2019s hard not to like Goldblum. His charismatic energy and care-free persona spill over into his performances, where he is often instructed by directors to just be himself. Perhaps its fitting, then, that he isn\u2019t wearing a gaudy timepiece, and instead lets his threads do the talking.\nAnd while most people will likely never be able to afford the wardrobe he boasts, you can at least own the same watch as one of Hollywood\u2019s most beloved actors.\nAbout Josh Islas\nJoshua Islas is the Inbound Marketing Manager for Bob's Watches and has been writing for nearly a decade. An avid reader of all things horology, fashion, design and the culinary arts, Josh has written for publications such as Food & Wine and VICE Media.",

It showcases a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that bridges the usual separation between the European Union and the Council of Europe.\nIn each entry, contributors selected among the leading specialists in their fields of research present the state of the art and the most current research perspectives on European actors. Students, teachers and researchers with an interest in Europe will find this volume to be a valuable work of reference and a source of new and stimulating ideas and perspectives on Europe. More broadly, the dictionary will appeal to \u2018professionals of Europe\u2019 eager to gain insights into their working environment as well as to readers interested in understanding Europe through its actors.",

If Mass. legalizes marijuana, you can\u2019t use it on campus\nVarious types of marijuana are on display at Private Organic Therapy (P.O.T.), a non-profit co-operative medical marijuana dispensary in Los Angeles.\nBy Joshua Miller Globe Staff October 24, 2016\nMassachusetts colleges and universities say even if voters legalize marijuana in next month\u2019s referendum, using the drug anywhere on campus, including in dorm rooms, will remain forbidden.\nQuestion 4 would eliminate penalties for possessing, using, or purchasing marijuana starting Dec. 15 and would allow recreational shops to open in 2018.\nBut marijuana would be legal just for people 21 and over, a group that excludes most college students. And consumption in public places would still be banned.\nColleges and universities say they won\u2019t permit consumption even in private spaces on campus, such as dorm rooms. That\u2019s because almost all schools get federal funding and, therefore, must comply with federal law, under which marijuana remains illegal.\n\u201cThe use of marijuana is a violation of the university\u2019s code of student conduct,\u201d said Matt McDonald, a spokesman for Northeastern University. It \u201cwill remain so regardless of the outcome of next month\u2019s ballot question. Marijuana is still illegal under federal law, and universities that receive federal funding, as Northeastern does, must comply with those federal statutes.\u201d\nJeremy Solomon, a spokesman for Simmons College, said regardless of what voters decide Nov. 8, \u201cthe use of marijuana will remain strictly prohibited on the campus of Simmons College.\u201d\nThe challenge, say college administrators in Colorado, where voters legalized the drug in 2012, is making sure students know that the state law legalizing the drug doesn\u2019t apply to them on university grounds.\nSince legalization, \u201cpolicywise, nothing has changed\u201d on campus, said Ryan Huff, chief spokesman for the University of Colorado Boulder. But, he said, \u201cWe certainly did a lot of messaging to our students at that time and, you know, we have to continue to do that.\u201d\nHuff said he hasn\u2019t seen any evidence that campus police officers are dealing with more marijuana-smoking issues in recent years.\nThere are students who use marijuana on campus, he said, and, if they are caught, they face student conduct sanctions, and a criminal summons if they\u2019re using in public. \u201cThat certainly occurs, but we didn\u2019t see a large spike in volume of that activity compared to years prior to Amendment 64,\u201d the 2012 legalization referendum.\nHuff\u2019s advice for schools in Massachusetts was simple.\n\u201cWhen a state legalizes marijuana, there are a lot of assumptions on what the rules might be. So you have to [be] clear, in our case, that the policies would remain the same,\u201d he said. \u201cYou just have to be clear in your messaging and repeat it a lot so people know exactly what the rules are.\u201d\nThe massive, 70,000-student University of Massachusetts system appears to already be grappling with the sticky issue.\nUMass spokesman Jeff Cournoyer said he doesn\u2019t expect any student conduct policies related to marijuana to change. But if Question 4 passes, a challenge could be \u201ccommunicating to of-age students that a widely publicized change to the state law would not apply on the campuses.\u201d\nAmong other schools that are poised to leave their no-marijuana policies in place even if Question 4 passes: Tufts University, Amherst College, Suffolk University, and Boston University.\nSome local colleges, such as Boston College and Harvard University, say it\u2019s premature to stake out a stance before Massachusetts voters cast their ballots.\n(There are, of course, many students who live off campus. If marijuana becomes legal in Massachusetts, they are 21 or older, and their landlord is OK with it, those students can smoke to their heart\u2019s content. And even if their landlord frowns upon such endeavors, of-age students could still drink and eat marijuana-infused products like soda and brownies in their apartment \u2014 unless they live in federally subsidized housing.)\nAt Suffolk University in downtown Boston last week, students said they\u2019re not surprised that marijuana will remain banned on campus, regardless of what happens at the polls Nov. 8.\n\u201cIf it were legal, I think, for sure, there would be rules on campus\u201d prohibiting use, said Diego Puig-Corve, an 18-year-old Suffolk student from Miami. So, he said, there probably wouldn\u2019t be much change.\n\u201cPeople who use it would still use it; people who don\u2019t still wouldn\u2019t,\u201d the freshman said.\nJordan Gillies, a 22-year-old student from Newmarket, N.H., said because Suffolk is a private school, he expects the university to keep marijuana forbidden on campus.\nStill, he expected some change: \u201cI would say there would be less alcoholism in students because they\u2019d be able to deal with stress through marijuana.\u201d\nSeveral Suffolk, Boston University, and Harvard College students said marijuana is already widely available on their respective campuses to people who are looking for it \u2014 and mostly invisible to those who aren\u2019t.\n\u201cOut of sight, out of mind,\u201d said a male student wearing Harvard Wrestling gear walking toward the school\u2019s Science Center in Cambridge Friday morning.\nIn Boston, Connor Paradis, a 19-year-old BU student, said marijuana was available on campus, like just about any school. And he said he believes it would make more sense for it to be legal.\n\u201cI feel as though a large proportion of our generation is smoking weed anyway,\u201d and, he said, it\u2019s not fair that people \u201cwho look like me\u201d can get away with marijuana use, while people of color get in trouble.\nOn Friday, Katerina Chew, a BU freshman from near Washington, D.C., where voters have already legalized the drug, was walking along Commonwealth Avenue with a fellow student from Portland, Ore., where the substance is also legal.\nThey both were nonchalant about the prospect of legalization in Massachusetts.\n\u201cIt\u2019s nice, but it doesn\u2019t affect people unless you\u2019re using marijuana,\u201d the young woman from Portland said.\nChew, 18, said there should be resources to help people struggling with addiction but believes it\u2019s wrong for people to get in trouble for marijuana smoking \u2014 echoing the sentiment of most students interviewed.\nWhether people are using it for recreational or medical use, Chew said, \u201cit doesn\u2019t make much sense for it to be criminalized.\u201d\nFollow him on Twitter @jm_bos.

The restoration, which required a complete disassembly of the car down to the bare chassis, took 28 months and was completed in 2016. This restoration was carried out without any cost limitation and many improvements were also made to the car. The list of parts that were replaced by new or refurbished parts difficultly fits on to 3 A4 pages. One of the most pleasant mechanical improvements is the installation of a new 5-speed gearbox, which significantly improves the driving experience of this Healey. The 150 hp 6-cylinder engine, the transmission and the suspension have been completely revised.\nThe aesthetic aspect has not been forgotten either and even if the original \u00ab English Green \u00bb colour of the bodywork has been preserved, the black imitation leather seats have been beautifully reupholstered with a very nice green leather. As for the soft top, it has been remade to measure in a superb green Mohair, a colour that suits the car particularly well. The details of the finishes, such as those of the dashboard as well as those of the rear trunk cover, are of a very high standard and exceed the quality of what was originally available when the car first left the factory.\nA restoration dossier with 800 photos of the process is available.\nThis superb car has \u00ab matching numbers \u00bb and \u00ab matching colours \u00bb, particularities which are confirmed and attested by its British Heritage Certificate. Of all the versions of the Austin Healey that were designed and manufactured, the BJ8 Phase 2 is the last one and is one of the most desirable and sought-after models.",

        "raw_content": "When the court creates an order for child custody, you and your ex-spouse must obey those orders. There are, of course, times when that might be impossible. For example, if your child falls ill, he or she may not be in a position to go to the other parent's house because of a fever or sickness. On the whole, however, parents need to abide by the custody order.\nWhen a parent doesn't follow the custody orders on purpose and attempts to prevent the other parent from seeing his or her child, it's called interference. Interference with child custody is a crime. Here's an example.\nIf you and your spouse agree that your children may go on vacation in Florida but must return to Louisiana by the end of the month, it would be a violation of the custody order and your agreement to take the children to Florida this month and into next month without your permission. Parents who take their children from the other parent without returning them on the correct date can be accused of parental kidnapping, which is a serious criminal offense.\nThere are always exceptions to the rules, like if a parent flees with a child to protect him or her from the other parent. In those cases, it's vital to get the authorities involved early on, so you know that you're following the right legal pathway to restrict the other parent from seeing your child.\nYour attorney can help you protect yourself and your child against interference or parental kidnapping. A good custody plan takes the potential for kidnapping into account when necessary.\nSource: Daily World, \"Interference with court ordered child custody is a crime,\" Sheriff Bobby Guidroz, accessed Feb. 23, 2018",

        "title": "Edward Said | American professor and literary critic | Britannica.com",
        "raw_content": "American professor and literary critic\nAlternative Titles: Edward Wadie Said, Edward William Said\nEdward Said, in full Edward Wadie Said, sometimes Edward William Said, (born November 1, 1935, Jerusalem\u2014died September 25, 2003, New York, New York, U.S.), Palestinian American academic, political activist, and literary critic who examined literature in light of social and cultural politics and was an outspoken proponent of the political rights of the Palestinian people and the creation of an independent Palestinian state.\nSaid\u2019s father, Wadie (William) Ibrahim, was a wealthy businessman who had lived some time in the United States and apparently, at some point, took U.S. citizenship. In 1947 Wadie moved the family from Jerusalem to Cairo in order to avoid the conflict that was beginning over the United Nations partition of Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab areas (see Arab-Israeli wars). In Cairo, Said was educated in English-language schools before transferring to the exclusive Northfield Mount Hermon School in Massachusetts in the United States in 1951. He attended Princeton University (B.A., 1957) and Harvard University (M.A., 1960; Ph.D., 1964), where he specialized in English literature. He joined the faculty of Columbia University as a lecturer in English in 1963 and in 1967 was promoted to assistant professor of English and comparative literature. His first book, Joseph Conrad and the Fiction of Autobiography (1966), was an expansion of his doctoral thesis. The book examines Conrad\u2019s short stories and letters for the underlying tension of the author\u2019s narrative style; it is concerned with the cultural dynamics of beginning a work of literature or scholarship.\nSaid was promoted to full professor in 1969, received his first of several endowed chairs in 1977, and in 1978 published Orientalism, his best-known work and one of the most influential scholarly books of the 20th century. In it Said examined Western scholarship of the \u201cOrient,\u201d specifically of the Arab Islamic world (though he was an Arab Christian), and argued that early scholarship by Westerners in that region was biased and projected a false and stereotyped vision of \u201cotherness\u201d on the Islamic world that facilitated and supported Western colonial policy.\nAlthough he never taught any courses on the Middle East, Said wrote numerous books and articles in his support of Arab causes and Palestinian rights. He was especially critical of U.S. and Israeli policy in the region, and this led him into numerous, often bitter, polemics with supporters of those two countries. He was elected to the Palestine National Council (the Palestinian legislature in exile) in 1977, and, though he supported a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, he became highly critical of the Oslo peace process between the Palestine Liberation Organization and Israel in the early 1990s.\nHis books about the Middle East include The Question of Palestine (1979), Covering Islam: How the Media and the Experts Determine How We See the Rest of the World (1981), Blaming the Victims: Spurious Scholarship and the Palestinian Question (1988; coedited with Christopher Hitchens), The Politics of Dispossession (1994), and Peace and Its Discontents: Essays on Palestine in the Middle East Peace Process (1995). Among his other notable books are The World, the Text, and the Critic (1983), Nationalism, Colonialism, and Literature: Yeats and Decolonization (1988), Musical Elaborations (1991), and Culture and Imperialism (1993). His autobiography, Out of Place (1999), reflects the ambivalence he felt over living in both the Western and Eastern traditions.\nIn addition to his political and academic pursuits, Said was an accomplished musician and pianist.\nArab-Israeli wars, series of military conflicts between Israeli and various Arab forces, most notably in 1948\u201349, 1956, 1967, 1973, 1982, and 2006.\u2026\nhistoriography: World history\n\u2026 (1978), by the literary critic Edward Said, announced many of the themes of subaltern studies. The Orient that Said discussed was basically the Middle East, and the Orientalism was the body of fact, opinion, and prejudice accumulated by western European scholars in their encounter with it. Said stressed the enormous\u2026\nAmerican literature: Theory\n\u2026and other Elizabethan writers and Edward Said\u2019s essays in The World, the Text, and the Critic (1983) were influential in reviving historical approaches to literature that had long been neglected. Said\u2019s Orientalism (1978) and Culture and Imperialism (1993) directed attention to the effects of colonialism on the arts and society.\u2026\ngeography: Influence of the social sciences\nGeographers have been stimulated by Edward Said\u2019s Orientalism (1979), which portrays how Western societies created images of the East in opposition to themselves.

The Gobi (from Mongolian gobi, meaning \u201cwaterless place\u201d) stretches across huge portions of both Mongolia and China. Contrary to the perhaps romantic image long associated with what\u2014at least to the European mind\u2014was a remote and unexplored region, much of the Gobi is not sandy desert but bare rock. It is possible to drive over this surface by car for long distances in any direction: northward toward the Altai and Hangayn mountain ranges, eastward toward the Da Hinggan (Greater Khingan) Range, or southward toward the Bei Mountains and Huang He (Yellow River) valley. To the west, beyond the southwestern limit of the Gobi, lies another arid expanse\u2014the Tarim Basin of the southern Uygur Autonomous Region of Xinjiang\u2014which encompasses the Takla Makan Desert and is enclosed by the Tien Shan ranges to the north and the Kunlun and western Altun mountains to the south.\nThe Gobi. Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica, Inc.\nThe Gobi occupies a vast arc of land 1,000 miles (1,600 km) long and 300 to 600 miles (500 to 1,000 km) wide, with an estimated area of 500,000 square miles (1,300,000 square km). In the present discussion, the Gobi is defined as lying between the Altai Mountains and Hangayn Mountains to the north; the western edge of the Da Hinggan Range to the east; the Yin, Qilian, eastern Altun, and Bei mountains to the south; and the eastern Tien Shan to the west.\nGobiThe Gobi occupies a vast arc of land 1,000 miles (1,600 km) long and 300 to 600 miles (500 to 1,000 km) wide, with an estimated area of 500,000 square miles (1,300,000 square km). Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica, Inc.\nThe Gobi consists of the Gaxun, Junggar (Dzungarian), and Trans-Altai Gobi in the west, the Eastern, or Mongolian, Gobi in the centre and east, and the Alxa Plateau (Ala Shan Desert) in the south.\nGobi DesertGobi Desert, Inner Mongolia, China. Junming\nThe Gobi Altai Mountains rising from the edge of the Gobi, southwestern \u00d6v\u00f6rhangay province, southern Mongolia. \u00a9 Brian A. Vikander\nThe Gaxun Gobi is bounded by the spurs of the Tien Shan to the west and the Bei Mountains to the south and rises to elevations as high as 5,000 feet (1,500 metres). It is gently corrugated, with a complex labyrinth of wide hollows separated by flat hills and rocky crests sometimes rising more than 300 feet (90 metres) above the plain. The desert is stony and nearly waterless, though salt marshes lie in the secluded depressions. The soil is grayish brown and contains gypsum and halite (rock salt). Vegetation is rare, though richer in the riverbeds, where there are individual shrubs of tamarisk, saxaulon and nitre bush (a saltwort), and annual halophytes (salt-tolerant plants).\nThe Trans-Altai Gobi is situated between the eastern spurs of the Mongolian Altai and Gobi Altai mountains to the north and east, respectively, and the Bei Mountains to the south. The plain is elevated, sharp, and rugged. Alongside the plains and the isolated group of low, rounded hills is a fairly extensive mountain area that extends more than six miles out into the plain. The mountains are barren and broken up by dry ravines. The western section of the Trans-Altai Gobi is basically a plain, too, but it is interspersed with small raised areas and furrowed by dry riverbeds and, again, with extensive salt marshes. In the central portion this fragmentation increases, and mesas (flat-topped, steep-sided hills) appear along with dry gullies ending in flat depressions, occupied by takyr (clayey tracts). The Trans-Altai Gobi is parched, with annual precipitation of less than 4 inches (100 mm), though there is always water underground. There are virtually no wells and springs, however, and vegetation is very sparse and almost useless for livestock.\nThe Junggar Gobi is north of the Gaxun Gobi, in the Junggar Basin between the eastern spurs of the Mongolian Altai and the eastern extremity of the Tien Shan. It resembles the Trans-Altai Gobi, and its edges are fractured by ravines, alternating with residual hills and low mountain ridges.\nThe Alxa Plateau is situated between the China-Mongolia border to the north, the Huang He and Helan Mountains to the east, the Qilian to the south, and the northern reaches of the Hei River to the west. It consists of a vast, nearly barren plain that rises in altitude from northwest to southeast. Large areas of the Alxa are sand-covered.\nThe Eastern Gobi is similar to the western regions, with elevations varying from 2,300 to 5,000 feet (700 to 1,500 metres), but it receives somewhat more precipitation\u2014up to 8 inches (200 mm) per year\u2014though it lacks significant rivers. The underground aquifers have relatively abundant quantities of water and are only partly mineralized. They are also near the surface, feeding small lakes and springs. The vegetation, however, is sparse, consisting mainly of herb wormwood in coarse, grayish brown soil. In the moister depressions there are the usual salt marshes and grassy swamps. In the northern and eastern outlying regions, where more precipitation occurs, the landscape of the desert gradually becomes less harsh, or sometimes even steppelike.\nThe Gobi\u2019s plains consist of chalk and other sedimentary rocks that are chiefly Cenozoic in age (i.e., up to about 66 million years old), though some of the low, isolated hills are older. The terrain contains small masses of shifting sands. In the central Gobi the remains of dinosaurs from the Mesozoic Era (about 252 million to 66 million years ago) and fossils of Cenozoic mammals have been found. The desert also contains Paleolithic and Neolithic sites occupied by ancient peoples. Successful excavations undertaken during the 1990s at the Tsagaan Agui (White Cave) in southwest-central Mongolia have produced artifacts up to 35,000 years old.\nRock formations in the Eastern (Mongolian) Gobi near T\u00f6h\u00f6m, southeastern Mongolia. \u00a9 Philippa Scott/NHPA\nThe climate is acutely continental and dry: winter is severe, spring is dry and cold, and summer is warm. The annual temperature range is considerable, with average lows in January reaching \u221240 \u00b0F (\u221240 \u00b0C) and average highs in July climbing to 113 \u00b0F (45 \u00b0C); daily temperature ranges also can be quite large. The annual total precipitation varies from less than 2 inches (50 mm) in the west to more than 8 inches (200 mm) in the northeast. Monsoonlike conditions exist in the eastern regions, which receive most of their precipitation in summer. Northerly and northwesterly winds prevail over the Gobi in autumn, winter, and spring.\nThe drainage of the desert is largely underground; surface rivers have little constant flow. Mountain streams are confined to the Gobi\u2019s fringes and even then quickly dry up as they disappear into the loose soil or the salty, enclosed depressions. Many rivers flow only in summer. On the other hand, subterranean water is widespread and of sufficient quality to allow cattle raising.\nDuring the Holocene Epoch (i.e., about the past 11,700 years), the Gobi\u2019s lakes have shrunk in size, leaving a series of terraces considerably farther from and higher than the present shorelines. Indeed, Lakes Orog and B\u00f6\u00f6ntsagaan, in the easternmost Mongolian Altai, and Lake Ulaan, in the northwestern Gobi Altai, are but shadows of their former selves.\nThe soil of the Gobi is chiefly grayish brown and brown carbonaceous (rich in carbon), gypseous (containing gypsum), coarse gravel, often combined with sandy salt marshes and takyr.\nVegetation, as mentioned above, is sparse and rare. On the plateau and on the plains beneath the mountains, small bushlike vegetation occurs: Echinochloa (a type of succulent grass found in warm regions), yellowwood bean caper, winter fat (a shrub covered with densely matted hairs), nitre bush, and bushlike halophytic vegetation. In the salt marshes, too, halophilous groups prevail: potash bush, Siberian nitre bush, tamarisk, and annual halophytes; in the sands grow saxaul, the sandy wormwood, and sparse perennial and annual herbs such as the annual Gobi kumarchik (Agriophylum gobicum) and the perennial timuriya (Timouria villosa). In semidesert tracts vegetation is richer, belonging to the herbaceous and wormwood groups: Gobi feather grass, Gobi kumarchik, timuriya, snakeweed (Cleistogenes species; another perennial), and cold wormwood. There are herb meadows with rhizome Mongolian onions and herb salt marshes with sparse beds of bushlike Caragana. In the Gobi Altai and other high mountains, desert-grass steppes completely cover the lower slopes, and, on the upper parts, mountain versions of the feather-grass steppes appear.\nThe Gobi\u2019s fauna is varied, with such large mammals as wild camels, kulan (Equus hemionus), dzheiran gazelles, and dzeren (an antelope). Przewalski\u2019s horse, which once ranged in the western region of the desert, is probably extinct in the wild. Rodents include marmots and gophers, and there are reptiles.\nThe population density is small\u2014fewer than three persons per square mile (one per square km)\u2014mostly Mongols with Han Chinese in Inner Mongolia. In Inner Mongolia the Chinese population has increased greatly since 1950. The main occupation of the inhabitants is nomadic cattle raising, though agriculture is predominant in regions where the Chinese are concentrated. The traditional living quarters of the Mongol nomads are felt yurts and orgers (types of tent), while the Chinese farmers live in clay homes built from crude brick.\nYurt in the Gobi desert, Mongolia George Holton/Photo Researchers\nIn the Gobi, particularly its semidesert sections, livestock raising is the main economic activity, sheep and goats constituting more than half of the total herds. Next in importance are the large-horned cattle. Horses make up only a small percentage of the total and, together with the large-horned cattle, are concentrated in the lusher semidesert of the southeast. A fair number of the livestock consists of two-humped Bactrian camels, still used for transportation in some areas. Pasturage for cattle is available throughout the year because of underground water supplies. Livestock raising is mainly nomadic, and herds move several times a year, migrating as much as 120 miles (190 km) between extreme points.\nUseful mineral deposits are scant, but salt, coal, petroleum, copper and other ores are mined. Agriculture is developed only along the river valleys.\nThe Gobi is crossed by railroads in the east and west, notably the line from south-central Inner Mongolia to Ulaanbaatar, capital of Mongolia. There are several highways, including one from eastern China to Xinjiang across the Bei Mountains and the Gaxun Gobi; from the town of Kalgan (Zhangjiakou) in Inner Mongolia (northwest of Beijing) to Ulaanbaatar; and from Ulaanbaatar to Dalandzadgad in southern Mongolia, some 300 miles (500 km) south-southwest of Ulaanbaatar. In addition, various ancient caravan tracks crisscross the Gobi in all directions.\nSince the 1950s, population increase and the overuse of marginal lands have decreased vegetation cover and increased soil erosion, resulting in an overall expansion of the desert area of the Gobi at the expense of semiarid grasslands on the fringes. In the 1980s industrialization in the Gobi intensified environmental pollution. A significant example is phosphate contamination of the groundwater caused by chemical fertilizer manufacture in the Hohhot area, which has adversely affected local herds. Contamination with arsenic has also become a major problem where water in wells has been depleted, and thousands of people have been affected. Processes used to mine certain ores in large quantities, notably copper, also have increased contamination of the groundwater at other sites. High radiation levels caused by fallout have been detected in the western Gobi in the area around China\u2019s chief nuclear weapons test site near Lop Nur.\nThe ancient Silk Road traversed the southern part of the Alxa Plateau and crossed the Gaxun Gobi as it skirted north and west around the Takla Makan Desert. Along this route, travelers from many Asian lands crossed the Gobi. The region first became known to Europeans through the vivid 13th-century descriptions of Marco Polo, but it otherwise remained for them virtually unknown and untraveled.\nEuropean interest in the region was rekindled in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. A number of geographic expeditions were launched by the Russians and British; and, though the main focus of these expeditions was the Takla Makan, most of them also went through the Gobi, where basic mapping and some study of the flora and fauna were conducted. Much of the geographic study of the Gobi since then was undertaken by Soviet investigators; the Chinese and Mongolians, however, have become increasingly active since the 1960s.\nThe area of greatest cultural interest in the Gobi has been the Mogao Caves complex, a series of Buddhist cave-temples near the city of Dunhuang in Gansu province, China; the complex was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987. Dating from the 4th to the 10th century ce, these temples have been well preserved in the arid desert air, and the quality and quantity of their fresco paintings and texts has remained unmatched. Scientific study of the complexes began with the discovery in 1907 of the caves by the Hungarian-British archaeologist and geographer Aurel Stein.\nEntrance to the Mogao Caves, Dunhuang, Gansu province, China. \u00a9 loonger/iStock.com\nDuring the 1990s, joint Mongolian-Russian-American archaeological expeditions excavated Paleolithic and Neolithic caves in the Mongolian Gobi. During the same period, U.S. and European expeditions conducted paleontological research on exceptionally preserved dinosaur fossil assemblages in the desert dating to Late Cretaceous times (i.e., about 100 million to 66 million years ago). Since 1995, joint Mongolian-American and Mongolian-European expeditions have also investigated the tectonic history and landscape evolution of the Gobi.\nMikhail Platonovich Petrov Guy S.

        "title": "Tesla's entire year hinges on answering one big question - Business Insider",
        "raw_content": "Tesla's entire year hinges on answering one big question\nTesla reports second-quarter earnings on Wednesday after the close and CEO Elon Musk will hold a conference call with analysts after the numbers are released.\nWe'll be covering the earnings announcement and the call, so check back.\nEveryone is going to want one huge question answered: Will Tesla be able to deliver 55,000 vehicles this year?\nIn the first half of the year, the company delivered less than half that total. So the pressure is on.\nTesla's actual financials in the second-quarter are expected to be a downer.\nAccording to the Wall Street Journal, Tesla lost money in the quarter \u2014 $117 million net, translating when adjusted to $0.59 per share.\nLast year during the same period, Tesla made $0.11 per share.\nIn the second-quarter, Tesla is expected to see a big jump in review, to $1.17 billion, the Journal reported.\nTesla is spending a huge amount of money right now to expand operations and to develop and introduce new vehicles, as well as bring online a massive battery factory in Nevada and create an energy storage business.\nSo the combination of increasing revenue and declining profits shouldn't surprise anyone. Musk and his team already informed the investment community that they're prepared to spend a \"staggering\" amount to vindicate the company's $33-billion market cap and lofty stock price.\nThere also won't be much suspense around how may cars Tesla sold in the quarter. The company has begun reporting deliveries on a quarterly basis (the rest of the industry reports monthly), so we know that 11,507 vehicles made it to customers in Q2, a jump of 52% from last year. Combined with the first quarter, Tesla sold 21,537 vehicles through the first half of 2015.\nCan Tesla build enough Model S sedans?\nEveryone who follows Tesla is obsessed with whether the Model X crossover SUV will launch on schedule this quarter. But Model X sales aren't expected to make a major contribution to Tesla's 2015 goal \u2014 probably less than 5,000 vehicles, assuming the launch goes off without any hitches.\nThat means delivering over 25,000 Model S sedans by the end of the year is critical.\nLast year, Tesla was able to build all the cars it said it would \u2014 35,000 \u2014 but about a thousand deliveries slipped into the first month of 2015, and that weakness sent Tesla stock into a funk that it has since recovered from.\nInvestors will want to know if they're in for a rehash of that script in 2015, so Musk's comments on the earnings call will be more important than the earnings themselves. If he and Tesla's leadership can confidently declare that 55,000 deliveries are in their sights, shares may not stage a retreat. But coming through on Model S deliveries while starting to roll Model X SUVs off the assembly line is a tall order. It's uncharted territory for Tesla, which has effectively spent the past few years building one car.\nIt's a great car, but it's been Tesla only one for a while now.\nTesla may have to run flat out for the next six months to meet its production and sales goals, but 55,000 vehicles still isn't out of the question. However, if there are any indications of wavering on that target, Tesla could wind up being punished by the markets.\nOther aspects of Tesla's business will be copiously scrutinized on Wednesday \u2014 there will undoubtedly be a lot of questions about cyber-security in the aftermath of the hacking of a Jeep sold by Fiat Chrysler, especially since Tesla is the most wired of automakers \u2014 but executing on Model S through the remainder of 2015 is the biggie.\nIt's worth bringing a bit of history into the picture here. Tesla is building a new kind of car \u2014 all electric \u2014 and with the Model S and a lesser extent the Model X, aiming for an affluent buyer. The Model 3 mass-market car won't arrive until 2017, at which point Tesla needs to producing cars much more quickly.\nProduction doesn't have to be hard. When Ford introduced the Model T 100 years ago, production ramped up quite rapidly, roughly doubling every year before taking off in year five (1913).\nHenry Ford's mass-production techniques made this possible. So Ford wasn't ever meaningfully constrained on the production side.\nFrom the Collections of The Henry Ford. Gift of Ford Motor Company.\nTesla's problem has always been production (demand for its vehicles, at least in the US, has historically been robust). This was understandable as the company established the Model S in the market. But now it's starting to be a conundrum. Musk wants to build half a million cars by 2020. So why is his company still struggling to build 55,000 in 2015?\nThis is, after all, a car we're talking about (we understand that Musk's other company, SpaceX, builds rockets, which are slightly more difficult). Tesla is a startup by the standards of the auto industry, but other car makers seem to be able to assemble vehicles at a fierce clip. General Motors sold 272,512 in July alone.\nWithin the next 2-12 months, Tesla is going to need to reassure the world it can operate like a typical car company (even it wants to be seen as anything but typical) and meet established production objectives. This is where the auto industry is a pretty simply business: it's hard to sell cars you can't build. Musk is sensitive to making customers wait for new vehicles, so it's reasonable to expect that he'll be very focused on this challenge for the balance of 2015\nSEE ALSO: Tesla sets a new record for car deliveries in second quarter\nMore: Tesla Elon Musk Earnings Auto Industry",

It generally refers to the adoption of an electronic message, transaction or document. E-signature can assume various forms such as a typed name at the end of an email, a typed name on an electronic form or document, a personal identification number (PIN) used for any kind of transaction or clicking on the \"Agree\" or the \"OK\" button on any online contract. An electronic signature represents a user's verified intent to sign a document.\nA digital signature is a specific type of e-signature and there are some differences between an e-signature and a digital signature. While an e-signature is an authorized way to sign a document, a digital signature is a way to encrypt documents with invisible digital codes, making it very difficult to tamper with.\nThe e-signature market can be segmented on the basis of type, component, deployment and application. Various types of e-signatures are click-to-sign, basic electronic, advanced electronic. Components of e-signatures include software and services. On the basis of deployment, e-signature market is classified as on-premise, cloud based and web based.\nThe global e-signature market has been growing consistently over the past few years and is expected to grow even further during the forecast period (2018-2022) driven by factors such as increasing online shopping and online documentation, penetration of internet and the growing acceptance of e-signatures in the BFSI (Banking, Financial services and Insurance) sector.\nAdobe Systems Inc.

        "raw_content": "\"American Rage\" Survey From NBC & 'Esquire' Shows What Makes American Angry \u2014 And A Lot Of It Isn't What You'd Think\nAmericans are angry, says the \"American Rage\" survey by NBC News and Esquire. In fact, not only are American angry, but that feeling seems only to be intensifying \u2014 half of the respondants said that they are angrier today than they were a year ago. So what is making Americans so angry? According to the survey, a lot of things... although they might not be what you're expecting.\nIt's worth noting when we talk about \"American rage\" that the study focused on what makes people angry politically, which may or may not affect how they feel in a day-to-day interpersonal sense. It's unclear whether Americans are walking around just feeling generally angrier today than this time last year, though of course it's possible. But what makes people angry in a political sense is still important to note. After all, anger is a powerful motivator, and oftentimes people made angry by political issues can express that not just by voting or organizing around an issue, but also things like beating up people who disagree with you or an armed take over of a federal building.\nSo what exactly are American angry about? Well, unsurprisingly, after sifting through data from over 3,000 respondents to their online survey, NBC and Esquire found that different groups are angry about different things. Here are six interesting findings from their report.\n1. The News Makes Almost Everyone Angry A Lot\nA total of 68 percent of Americans say they hear or read something in the news at least once a day that makes them angry \u2014 and 31 percent, almost a third of all Americans, say they find news stories that make them angry more than once a day. Honestly, I've never seen such a convincing argument for people having a designated \"no media\" day. Then again, I'm probably one of those people who gets angry because of the news multiple times per day, and I don't plan on changing anything, so there you go.\n2. The Biggest Topics That Make People Angry Might Surprise You\nIt's unsurprising that things like Congressional disfunction are among the issues that make many groups most angry, but there are also some surprising topics. For instance, despite the fact that the Republican presidential primary has so far actively avoided discussing Black Lives Matter, 65 percent of Republicans say that the shooting of unarmed black people makes them angry \u2014 and 84 percent of Democrats say the same. Additionally, for all the arguments that people like Kim Davis represent a silent majority, far more people in this survey say they feel angry about the way LGBT people are treated in America (41 percent) than say they support Kim Davis (24 percent).\nIn other words, it's not all that surprising that Americans are angry, but what they get angry about doesn't always line up with conventional wisdom.\n3. White People Are Angrier Than People Of Color\nSpeaking of conventional wisdom, the stereotype of \"black people getting angry for no reason\" doesn't really hold true either (which seems like it should be obvious, because stereotypes are... well, stereotypes). In fact, the truth is just the opposite. Despite the fact that white people have more wealth, higher income, more opportunities, more political power, and more representation in all forms of entertainment media than any other racial or ethnic group in the country, the survey found white Americans are angrier than people of color in this country. The researchers write that this seems to be a matter of \"perceived disenfranchisement \u2014 a sense that the majority has become a persecuted minority, the bitterness of a promise that didn't pan out \u2014 rather than actual hardship.\"\nThis is further supported by the fact that white people are less likely to be angry about the treatment of other demographic groups than black and Hispanic people are. When asked about the treatment of various groups in America, white people only have a \"mean quantified anger score\" of about 26 \u2014 compared with scores of about 34 and 33 for blacks and Hispanics, respectively. In other words, white people are less likely to get angry on behalf of other people. In fact, white people are about three times more likely to be angry about the treatment of white men than either blacks or Hispanics, while both blacks and Hispanics are more likely to be angry about the treatment of each other's communities than white people are to be angry about the treatment of either group.\n(Additionally, it seems Republicans are also angrier than Democrats, which is fairly unsurprisingly given the fact that the Republican party is disproportionately white.)\n4. Women Are More Likely To Be Angry About Treatment Of Others\nHowever, women are growing more and more angry, it seems. 53 percent of women say that they are more angry today than a year ago, compared with 44 percent of men. But much of the difference seems to stem from the fact that women are much more likely to be angry about the treatment of other groups. Women's \"mean quantified anger\" score when it comes to the treatment of various demographic groups in the US is about 30 compared to men's score of 26. And while men are more likely to be angry about the treatment of Evangelical Christians, atheists, and white men, women are more likely to be angry about the treatment of women, blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, and LGBT people \u2014 all groups that probably face a good deal more systemic oppression.\nInterestingly, women are also more likely to be angry about police shootings of unarmed black men and billionaires potentially buying elections. Men are more likely to be angry about global warming, gay marriage, and, oddly, Caitlyn Jenner hypothetically getting married.\n5. Women Are Also Angry About The Way We're Treated\nWhile women are more likely to be angry about injustice for many other groups in America, we do still get plenty angry about the way we are treated, too. 48 percent of women say that the way women are treated makes them angry. And, interestingly, 49 percent of women say they associate the term \"feminism\" most strongly with the word \"equality.\" So don't believe the hype \u2014 the fight for gender equality is still plenty strong.\n6. There's At Least One Thing That Makes Virtually Everyone Angry\nFor all the things that divide us, however, it seems there is at least one thing that makes virtually all Americans angry: school shootings. In the survey, participants gauged their anger in response to a variety of fake headlines, including things like \"Bill Cosby Cleared Of All Charges\"; \"CEO Resigns, Admits To Massive Consumer Fraud\"; and \"Caitlyn Jenner's Wedding Of The Century!\" And while opinions varied widely on most of these, it seems that there's one headline that angers virtually everyone: \"School Shooting Leaves Six Dead, Nine Wounded.\"\nA total of 91 percent of respondents reported feeling either \"very\" or \"somewhat angry\" in response to this headline, and in fact this pattern held over all demographic groups. No matter what their race, ethnicity, gender, or political affiliation, over 90 percent of people are angered by school shootings, which the report notes is \"about as close to unanimous as you can get in America.\"\nWhich also suggests that instead of trying to play on people's sympathy in pushing for gun control reform, maybe we should try tapping into a little of their anger. Just a thought.\nYou can find more of the many fascinating findings from this report here.",

        "raw_content": "Photos Show Why The North Dakota Pipeline Is Problematic\nA proposed oil pipeline is set to begin construction on tribal lands in North Dakota. Members of various Native American reservations gathered Monday to try to stop it.\nBy Kate Bubacz and Daniella Zalcman\nKate Bubacz Senior Photo Editor, News Daniella Zalcman BuzzFeed Contributor\nRiders from the Standing Rock, Rosebud, and Lower Brule Lakota reservations came together on horseback to push back a police line that had formed between a group of protesters and the entrance to the Dakota Access Pipeline construction site.\nLast week, the federal government gave final approval to the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline, which will run for 1,172 miles to transport crude oil from North Dakota's Bakken oilfields to Patoka, Illinois.\nHundreds of protesters, primarily Lakota and Dakota from Native American reservations within a several-hundred-mile radius, convened over the weekend at the edge of the Standing Rock reservation in North Dakota to voice their anger.\nThe pipeline would travel through lands sacred to the Lakota people, and cross under the Missouri, Mississippi, and Big Sioux rivers.\nA possible spill, which can occur with pipelines, would mean contaminating farmland and drinking water for millions.\nAfter a series of tense interactions with North Dakota state police on Monday, the protesters succeeded in temporarily halting the beginning stages of construction.\nProtesters stand at the front barricades of the protest zone, holding signs that read \"Water is sacred\" and \"Mni Wiconi\" (\"Water is life\" in Lakota).\nHorses and riders from the Rosebud reservation arrive to support the Standing Rock community. The horses are in traditional Lakota regalia.\nProtesters congregate next to a construction site for the Dakota Access Pipeline on Monday morning, as a crew arrives with machinery and materials to begin cutting a work road into the hillside. The flag in the foreground belongs to the American Indian Movement.\nNorth Dakota state police form a line between the protesters and the entrance to the construction site as a tank truck turns into the property.\nA protester is arrested for standing on the outer layer of barricades that separate the protest site from the police line and construction zone on Monday morning.\nTwo young Lakota boys watch as construction machinery drives onto the Dakota Access Pipeline construction site, just over a mile from the banks of the Missouri River.\nAfter the protesters disrupted the construction site and shut down work for the day, a group marched up to the main gates.\nChildren play in the Missouri River, a mile from the proposed construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline.\nDaniella Zalcman is a documentary photographer based between London and New York.

        "raw_content": "Articles Posted in Marijuana Sales\nNEW CRIMINAL LAWS FOR 2018\n2018 saw major change on California\u2019s statute books, many within the criminal law arena. Below are some of the changes in law that impact those who may be facing criminal charges and those who have already been convicted.\nJOB APPLICANTS WITH CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS\nYou may have heard the term \u201cBan the Box.\u201d This term refers to new legislation in California that now prohibits an employer with five or more employees from requiring a job applicant to disclose past criminal convictions during the application process. Practically speaking, the new law prohibits most employers from including \u201cthe box\u201d on an employment application that asks if the applicant has ever been convicted of a crime. The law now also prohibits the employer from asking the applicant about his or her criminal history during the interviewing process. It is only after an employer makes a conditional offer of employment that the employer can ask the potential employee about previous criminal convictions. If the employer then rescinds the conditional offer, the employer must inform the prospective employee in writing with an explanation of why the offer is being rescinded. The law allows the applicant to dispute the evidence provided by the employer in the notice and the employer must consider the applicants submission.\nPosted in: Gun Charges and Marijuana Sales\nCalifornia Law Regarding Legal Marijuana and Taxes\nLEGAL MARIJUANA COMES WITH MANY RULES AND NEW TAXES\nThe pot shops will soon open and even though recreational marijuana is legal now, there are still plenty of reasons a black market in marijuana sales will not be going away with the opening of your local cannabis shop. To begin with, the laws regulating the legal cannabis shops are onerous. In fact, it might be a challenge to even understand all the regulations in the 276-page Bureau of Cannabis Control regulations book. And that\u2019s not all: cannabis shops also have to abide by regulations promulgated by the California Department of Food and Agriculture and the Department of Public Health.\nThe cannabis products that do end up for sale must be tested and tracked under strict rules including limits on the amount of THC allowed in edibles. Furthermore, the fees and licensing requirements are confusing and often costly.\nMarijuana Smugglers Using New Ford Fusions to Move Their Goods\nAh, the Ford Fusion. With apologies to those who own one, it may be the most boring car ever. Well, maybe not anymore. Ford Fusions are made in Hermosillo Mexico and then shipped to Ohio. Some of those Fusions have been carrying a secret. Turns out that numerous Fusions have been found to be carrying lots of weed\u2014that\u2019s marijuana for you Fusion owners\u2014in the spare wheel well. At one Youngstown, Ohio Ford dealership, DEA agents found marijuana worth a million dollars in the wheel wells of Fusions newly shipped from Mexico. Marijuana has also been found in Fusions in 15 other cars in Ohio, and in Fusions in Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and Arizona. I guess this is giving new meaning to the term \u201ccar dealership.\u201d\nJust during the two months of February and March this year, around 1,100 pounds of marijuana were discovered hidden in 22 newly manufactured Fusions coming to the US from the Mexican plant. In February, another fifteen Fusions on a railcar in St. Paul were reported to the police. Thirteen of the cars had already been shipped out to dealerships and three ended up at the Enterprise rental location at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. (Imagine unsuspectingly renting one of those cars and ending up with the police finding it. That\u2019s an immediate arrest despite your protestations that you knew nothing about it.) All 15 cars were recovered by the police with the after-market \u201cextras\u201d still hidden in the spare tire compartments. Each car had between 40 and 60 pounds of marijuana hidden in the spare tire wheel well.\nThere are many other instances of Fusions \u201cinfused\u201d with weed and that\u2019s only the marijuana that has been found. To be sure many more Fusions have entered the US loaded with the \u201cextras\u201d that were intercepted and removed by co-conspirators before the Fusions hit the dealership showrooms.\nProp 64 and Prior Marijuana Convictions in California\nPETITION UNDER PROPOSITION 64 TO DISMISS AND SEAL OR TO REDUCE A PRIOR MARIJUANA CONVICTION\nBy a hefty margin of 56%, Prop 64 was passed in California on November 8. It is now legal for Californians over the age of 21 to possess, transport, and buy 28.5 grams (a little over one ounce) of marijuana for personal use. It is also now legal to grow up to six marijuana plants at a time.\nSo, what about all those Californians who were arrested and convicted for possessing or transporting amounts of marijuana now legal under the law?\nPosted in: Drug Offenses, Marijuana Sales and Uncategorized\nMarijuana Plants Found Growing in Orange County California\nA grove of marijuana plants was found a few weeks ago by Orange County Parks Personnel, which they believe had been growing for quite some time. The grove was discovered very close to a \u201creally nice residential area\u201d, which is unusual, especially a grove this large.\nAccording to the Orange County Sheriff\u2019s Department, approximately 2,500 to 4,000 plants were discovered in the Canyon area of the Laguna Wilderness Park and may be worth around $5 million. The plants are reported to be in various stages of growth and it seems clear that the grove has been there, unnoticed by residences and OC Parks Personnel, for a while. Although the plants were discovered outside of city limits, residence are shocked that anyone or any group, would be so brazen as to cultivate such a large grove of marijuana in such a visible area. They are equally as shocked that it went unnoticed long enough to grow so large.\nOn August 15, the Orange County Sheriff\u2019s Department began a marijuana cultivation eradication operation, which will consist of narcotics investigators hiking into the area, which is apparently very rugged, in order to pull up the plants manually. The Sheriff\u2019s Department has also enlisted the help of an airship to lift the plants and carry them to a area nearby where they will be processed as evidence.\nPosted in: Marijuana Sales and Uncategorized\nMarijuana Transportation and Distribution Laws in California\nBorder Patrol Agents recently arrested 9 men and seized 1,000 pounds of marijuana in Laguna Beach. While patrolling the Orange County coastline at midnight in Laguna Beach, the Border Patrol spotted a boat near Crystal Cove State Park. There were 7 men on the boat and 2 men waiting on the shore in an SUV. When the men began unloading and loading, the Border Patrol arrested the men and seized 26 bundles of marijuana. The street value of the marijuana is reported to be approximately $1.8 million.\nIn California, it is a felony to sell, transport or distribute marijuana and the penalties can be quite harsh. However, the penalties are significantly less if the person is transporting or giving away less than an ounce of marijuana. It then becomes a misdemeanor and is punishable by a fine. But, even selling a small amount of marijuana is still a felony and can result in serious consequences.\nDrug Possession with Intent to Sale\nLaw enforcement does not have to actually see a sale taking place in order to charge someone with felony possessio with intent to sell. They can rely on the circumstantial evidence at the time of the arrest. Typically, in a situation where no sale was witnessed, the amount of marijuana and the way it is packaged is used as evidence of sales. Also, the presence of scales for weighing, baggies for packaging and/or large amounts of cash are considered evidence of sales. The police also look for text messages and pay/own sheets.\nTransportation and/or Distribution of Drugs\nWhen an individual or group of people knowingly transfers an illegal drug from one place to another, they have committed the crime of transportation of narcotics. It doesn\u2019t matter whether they are transporting a small amount or a large amount, it is a serious offense. The act of selling drugs to others is distribution.\nConsequences of a Conviction for Drug Trafficking and/or Distribution\nThere are state and federal laws that govern sentencing of drug traffickers. The penalties vary depending upon the circumstances. Factors that are taken into consideration are: 1) What type schedule drug was it; 2) The amount of the drug; 3) Were minors involved; 4) Was the defendant part of a group or an individual; and 5) The location where the offense took place.\nIf convicted of drug trafficking, you could be facing many years in Federal Prison. However, there are defenses to this charge, which an experienced criminal defense attorney will be familiar with. Because the sentencing depends upon so many different variables, it is important that the details surrounding the arrest, seizure and interrogation be carefully looked at by your attorney. Paying close attention to the laws as they apply to law enforcement when it comes to search and seizure, as well as any violation of your amendment rights.\nThe Fourth Amendment guards against illegal search and seizure by law enforcement. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for police personnel to ignore the law regarding search and seizure, which often times goes unnoticed. A good criminal defense attorney should scrutinize all aspects of the search, seizure and arrest, looking for mistakes or misconduct by law enforcement personnel.\nIf you or a loved one has been arrested for drug transportation/trafficking or distribution, contact an experienced criminal defense lawyer in the County in which the arrest took place. Protecting the rights and mitigating the potential prison exposure for you or your family member should be your attorney\u2019s first priority.",

It provides the first comprehensive and systematic analysis of ASEAN's compliance with its instruments, and enables readers to see ASEAN as an organisation increasingly based on law and institutions. Readers will also learn how ASEAN balances a thin line between law and institutions on the one hand and diplomacy and realism on the other. Scholars of adjudicatory mechanisms will find this book a fascinating addition to the literature available, and it will serve as a 'go-to' reference for ASEAN state agencies. The book will also interest academics and practitioners working on comparative and cross-disciplinary studies of dispute settlement, monitoring mechanisms, compliance, and international and regional organisations.\nThe first book on ASEAN dispute settlement mechanisms (DSMs) and compliance mechanisms (CMs) - readers will learn much about ASEAN as an organisation and how it will build the ASEAN Community in relation to its DSMs and CMs\nReveals how ASEAN is a law- and institution-based organisation based on its DSMs and CMs, but how it also remains very much influenced by realpolitik\nASEAN DSMs and CMs are empirically and qualitatively studied for the very first time to give readers a full understanding of the unique compliance structure in ASEAN - the content of the book also enables comparative and cross-disciplinary studies of DSMs and CMs\nIntroduction: overview and research rationale\n1.

Tien, Marc S. Williams, Vivek Nimgaonkar, Alex Rosen, Steven Nichtberger, Osama Ahmed, Amy Le\nIn this book, distinguished scholars Philip A. Rea, Mark V. Pauly, and Lawton R. Burns explore the science and management behind marketable biomedical innovations. They look at how the science actually played out through the interplay of personalities, the cultures within and between academic and corporate entities, and the significance of serendipity not as a mysterious phenomenon but one intrinsic to the successes and failures of the experimental approach. With newly aggregated data and case studies, they consider the fundamental economic underpinnings of investor-driven discovery management, not as an obstacle or deficiency as its critics would contend or as something beyond reproach as some of its proponents might claim, but as the only means by which scientists and managers can navigate the unknowable to discover new products and decide how to sell them so as to maximize the likelihood of establishing a sustainable pipeline for still more marketable biomedical innovations.\nProvides a combination of theory-based management and economics - the challenges faced by scientists in the research laboratory and the challenges faced by investors in deciding which lines of research in which to invest\nUses non-technical language to present complex material in a clear and accessible way, including graphs and figures which demonstrate the critical biology\nDebunks some unsupportable or illogical criticisms of the pharmaceutical industry while pursuing the logic of profit-maximizing behavior through the provision of patents to guarantee market exclusivity\n'The authors captured the magic of the biomedical industry from the inception of an idea through translational studies that lead to a product that can transform lives.

        "raw_content": "Buying a House | Drawbacks and Benefits of an HOA in FL\nHOA\u2019s often get a bad rap. In reality, they can help to provide a wonderful environment to call home. There are many benefits and amenities the come along with living in a community with an HOA, however, it\u2019s not the right living situation for everyone.\nIn our latest post, we will discuss the drawbacks and benefits of an HOA controlled community.\nBenefits of an HOA\nHaving an HOA will typically mean you have access to shared amenities that you don\u2019t have to clean, repair or maintain in any way. Swimming pools, tennis courts, and park-like settings can all be expected. Some might offer a fitness center or clubhouse. (Of course, every community is different.) For example, owning and maintaining a pool of your own can be a lot of work. Cleaning, maintenance, chemicals\u2026 these things can really add up. Living in a community that takes care of this for you, will save you time and money.\nKeeping The Peace Between Neighbors\nWe have all lived next door to that one neighbor who just drove you crazy. From loud music to dogs barking all night, to having your driveway blocked, disrespectful neighbors can make home-life very unpleasant. Typically, you would be dealing with the issues on your own, which can ultimately create a greater divide between you and your neighbor. However, when you have an HOA to act as a mediator, issues such as the ones mentioned above, can be resolved peacefully and without the problems escalating into something bigger.\nLess Overall Maintenance and Responsibility\nAn HOA will typically maintain the landscaping and grounds. Many times, when you are living in a condo community, outdoor maintenance of your home is included as well. This includes painting, hardware, and repairs. There are TONS of other things an HOA might cover, depending on the community, these can include: trash removal, snow removal, pest control, tree trimming, roofs, etc. Having someone else take care of all these \u201cchores\u201d will free up time for you. This is perfect for busy families or older homeowners who don\u2019t want to spend their Sunday\u2019s mowing the lawn.\nLiving in an HOA will require you to pay a monthly fee. This fee varies by community, but some can be quite high if many amenities are offered. The average HOA fee runs about $400 a month. If you miss HOA payments, penalties can be enforced. In some instances, an HOA can even foreclose on your property!\nAlso, if the community requires a major repair or improvement, and association lacks funds, they will create an assessment to be paid by all residents of the HOA\u2019s jurisdiction.\nOh, the rules. Every HOA is different. Each creates its own set of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) by which they operate. Not being able to rent your home, choose your paint color, or decorate your yard the way you like are just a few of the things you might have to contend with. Before you move into an HOA community, fully read their CC&R\u2019s to make sure they won\u2019t negatively impact your quality of life. It is your home, after all, you want to make sure you are able to enjoy it.\nWhen you live in a community with an HOA, some residents can really take advantage of it. There is always the one neighbor who is looking for things to report. Some HOA\u2019s can be overbearing, with continual inspections and drive-bys. If you are looking for a home with an HOA, talk to some neighbors and see what they have to say. Do they seem pleased or annoyed?\nHOA monitored communities can offer convenience, multiple amenities as well as peace of mind. However, they aren\u2019t right for everyone! We are ready to help you determine what is right for you!\nAre you looking to purchase a home in Miami ? Find out if living with an HOA is the right decision for you!

        "raw_content": "Future Audi cars & SUVs in India to cost less than the Toyota Fortuner & Ford Endeavour: Here\u2019s how\nAudi has lost market leadership in India to Mercedes Benz and now finds itself in third place, behind BMW, in the pecking order. The German luxury car maker is working on a comeback strategy that involves affordable cars. The automaker is planning to launch cars under the A3 sedan and Q3 crossover, the least priced cars that Audi sells in the Indian market. The Q2 crossover is one such car that is likely to be introduced in India within the next 2-3 years.\nConfirming this development, here\u2019s what Rahil Ansari, the head of Audi India said,\nSo far, I have been busy in cleaning up and putting things in order. In order to gain customer base, we will introduce products in the volume segment, below A3 and Q3, in the next two-three years.\nWhat this means is, it\u2019s safe to expect the next entry-level car from Audi to sit at under Rs. 30 lakhs, making it cheaper than the top-end variants of luxury SUVs such as the Toyota Fortuner and the Ford Endeavour. In the past, the prices of the Audi Q3 and A3 have been less than Rs. 25 lakhs, and have slowly inched up to over Rs. 30 lakh levels.\nBy launching the Q2 in India, Audi will take a relook at the sub-Rs. 30 lakh space, and this is expected to greatly increase volumes. In fact, lower priced Audis could make the brand grow enough to beat Mercedes Benz and BMW in India.\nHowever, introducing affordable luxury cars is a delicate balancing act. Audi has to make sure that the luxury quotient and brand image of its cars don\u2019t suffer in the process of introducing affordable, new cars such as the Q2 crossover. So, the Q2, despite having a price tag of less than Rs. 30 lakhs, will not be a compromise in terms of the luxury it offers.\n\u00ab Tata H7X SUV: First video of the 7 seat Toyota Fortuner challenger\nTruck reverses into unfortunate scooter rider; Absolute panic follows [Video] \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Honda Civic sunroof variant launched at Rs. 13.53 lakhs\nHonda India has just launched the Honda Civic decked out with a sunroof. The Honda Civic sunroof range hits the market with the price tag of Rs 13.53 lakh for the 1.8l manual transmission and Rs 14.27 lakh for the 1.8 V automatic transmission (ex-showroom, Delhi).\nThe launch was carried out in the presence of Bollywood actress Chitrangada Singh along with Tatsuya Natsume, director, Marketing, HSCI and Jnaneswar Sen, vice president, Marketing, HSCI (Honda Siel Cars India).\nIn a study undertaken by Honda, the sunroof was found to be the most desirable feature in the Civic sedan. A sunroof, apart from adding appeal to a car from the outside, also gives the passengers a panoramic feel of the interiors \u2013 making it look brighter and larger.\nSpeaking on the occasion, Tatsuya Natsume said: \u201cWe are delighted to introduce the new Civic with sunroof which further augments the style quotient of the car and make it even more desirable. We believe that this variant will greatly appeal to the customers for whom the style is a way of life.\u201d\nPhoto: Honda Civic\nThe Honda Civic was launched in India in 2006, and since then has done well for itself in the lower D segment of the industry. Honda has sold over 50,000 units in the last 4 1/2 years and has won several automobile awards including the Indian Car of the Year 2007 and topped the JD Power Initial Quality Study in 2010 with the best ever score in the Industry.\nThe Honda Civic is powered by a 1.8 L i-VTEC engine that generates maximum power of 132 bhp @ 6300 rpm with maximum torque of 175 Nm @ 4300 rpm. Honda\u2019s trademark i-VTEC technology regulates the opening of air-fuel intake valves and exhaust valves in accordance with engine speeds. By regulating valve opening to match engine speed, the agile i-VTEC engine adjusts its characteristics to realize both superior power and low fuel consumption. As per ARAI standards, the Honda Civic returns a healthy 15.5 km/l. The car is available in manual as well as automatic transmissions.\nSafety features of the Honda Civic include ABS, EBD, brake assist, dual SRS airbags and pretensioning seatbelts. Also, Honda\u2019s Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body and G-CON (G-Force Control Technology) provide a high-integrity survival zone that enhances self-protection and better compatibility in collisions with other vehicles.\nHonda also recently unveiled the 2012 Honda Civic Coupe and Sedan Concepts at the 2011 Detroit Auto Show. The photos of new Honda Civic don\u2019t suggest a major break from the current styling. While the styling is dynamic, the front nose bears resemblance to Mitsubishi cars which haven\u2019t caught the fancy of Indian buyers. The rear-end treatment too is quite unremarkable. We will wait for the India launch before we pass the verdict.\n\u00ab Hyundai i10 Sportz 1.2L Kappa2 road test\nMahindra Logan now available with CNG kit \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "cazenoviarecovery.org > News & Updates > The Reality of Substance Use Disorders\nPosted on October 3, 2018 under News & Updates 0\nMike\u2019s had a hard year. After 23 months free of drugs and alcohol, he experienced a recurrence of use in May. There were some warning signs at first: he stopped working with his sponsor and he cut back on attending self-help meetings. Then came the moment he feared. \u201cI sat in outpatient one day and said, \u2018I want to get high\u2019.\u201d He went out that day and used. Mike continued to use even though he was receiving treatment, and his strategy was to plan his use around drug screening tests. It worked for a while until it didn\u2019t.\nWhen telling this part of his story, Mike\u2019s disappointment is palpable in his voice. Understandably, he experienced some pretty immediate consequences. \u201cI almost lost my family,\u201d he said. \u201cMy niece wouldn\u2019t talk to me.\u201d Thankfully, Mike\u2019s outpatient counselor saw that he needed something more intensive than outpatient care, so she referred him to inpatient treatment. \u201cI just couldn\u2019t bring myself to say that I needed help,\u201d he said.\nIn many ways, Mike\u2019s experience shines a light on the reality of substance use disorders: it\u2019s a disease that affects people for life, and it can be a constant struggle. It\u2019s rare that someone with a substance use disorder never uses again after seeking help for the first time. \u201cI spent a lot of years using and destroying my life,\u201d Mike said. \u201cI\u2019ve been bouncing in and out of recovery for the last 18 years, but I\u2019ve had some success.\u201d\nWhat\u2019s important is that Mike didn\u2019t give up on himself, despite the reality of substance use disorders. He went into inpatient treatment with an open mind. However, one thing he immediately realized was that \u201c28 days just wasn\u2019t enough.\u201d He told his counselor that he wanted to get into a residential program after he completed inpatient. Mike received a referral to Sundram Manor, and he started there in early August.\nToday, Mike is all smiles at Sundram Manor. He\u2019s been at the community residence, which is located in Niagara Falls, for just over a month. He\u2019s keeping track of his progress and he takes the suggestions he receives from the staff to heart. Mike recently wrote some essays on his experiences and keeps a daily gratitude journal. \u201cFinding things to be grateful for is a good tool to use,\u201d he explained. He also finds the structure of the program to be helpful. \u201cIt helped me get back into a routine,\u201d he said.\nMike wants to continue to take the time he needs to focus on his recovery. \u201cI\u2019m doing things differently this time,\u201d he said. After he finishes his stay at Sundram Manor, he\u2019s planning on moving into one of our Supportive Living apartments in Buffalo. This way, he\u2019ll be close to his self-help network. Despite the challenges he experienced this year, Mike still has a positive outlook. \u201cI\u2019m grateful to wake up with the choice to get it right one more day,\u201d he said.\nStories of Recovery, Sundram Manor\nRecovery-Friendly Activities",

        "raw_content": "Huge blue whales put on show off Calif. coast\nDozens of blue whales have been surfacing recently off the coast of Southern California, treating both tourists and locals to quite a show.\nThe blue whale is Earth's largest creature, stretching the length of a basketball court and weighing as much as eight airplanes. Still, CBS News Correspondent Hattie Kauffman reports, spotting a blue whale in the ocean is rare.\nBut for the past few weeks, a pod of blue whales has been moving closer to shore just south of Los Angeles.\nPhotos: Gigantic blue whales stun the SoCal coast\n\"Happy Feet\" the penguin released into wild\nPhotos: \"Happy Feet\" released into wild\nCraig Stanton, of Voyager Excursions, a whale watching tour company, said the whales have been within one to two miles of land.\n\"We get a few stragglers that get within a few hundred yards of the mouth of the harbor,\" Stanton said. \"It's to the point where we get paddle boarders and kayakers getting alongside of them, which is pretty unique.\"\nSince word got out, tour boats have been packed.\nWhale-watcher Tim Hammond has been out to see them three times, trying to capture that perfect photo.\nHammond said, \"We had four whales at one time, so it was just amazing.\"\nHe says each sighting offers a new surprise.\n\"One went under the boat and scared all of us, but we just had a great time today,\" Hammond said.\nIt's a scene that couldn't have happened just a few years ago, Kauffman said. Blue whales were hunted almost to extinction. They are still considered endangered, with only 8,000 to 9,000 in all the oceans of the world.\nIn the exact same spot at the exact same time last year, nearly 200 surfaced along the coastline in search of their favorite food, a tiny shrimp called krill. Experts believe colder water temperatures are creating a perfect harbor for krill and, as a result, these gentle giants.\nOne whale watcher said, \"It was incredibly amazing. I never thought I'd see a whale in my lifetime. Honestly, it was just breathtaking!\"",

        "raw_content": "Downed power line claims the life of one volunteer fire fighter and critically injures two fellow fire fighters - Missouri.\nCortez-KL; Mezzanotte-TP\nMorgantown, WV: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, FACE 99-F37, 2000 Mar; :1-8\nOn October 4, 1999, a 20-year-old male volunteer fire fighter (the victim) was electrocuted and two other fire fighters were injured when they contacted an electric fence while fighting a grass fire. Central Dispatch notified the fire department at 0700 hours of a fire which was started when a downed power line ignited the surrounding grass. The Chief was the first to arrive on scene, and he confirmed that a power line was down. He also indicated to Central Dispatch and to the responding fire fighters that the electric fence bordering the area was energized by the downed power line. The Chief parked his truck on the road near the end of the downed line to warn arriving units of its location. Engine 1, with a driver and one fire fighter (Injured #1), was next to arrive and was positioned in a driveway on the north flank of the fire (Figure 3). Two fire fighters (the victim and Injured #2) arrived in their privately owned vehicles and assisted the driver of Engine 1 and Injured #1 pull a booster line off Engine 1. After the victim, the driver of Engine 1, and Injured #1 and #2 pulled a booster line, they crawled underneath the bottom wire of the electric fence. Injured #1 and Injured #2 positioned themselves approximately 50 feet from the downed power line and attacked the primary fire. To prevent the fire from spreading to brush piles in the adjoining piece of property, the driver of Engine 1 rolled back under the energized fence to get a rake and create a fire control line around the brush piles. After approximately 15 minutes on the fire ground, the Chief yelled for assistance to the driver of Engine 1, stating that he had three fire fighters down. The three fire fighters were lying in the area of a secondary fire (Figure 1). The Chief grabbed Injured #1 by the collar of her bunker coat and pulled her from the fire. The driver of Engine 1 grabbed Injured #2 and the victim and removed them from the fire. Basic first aid procedures were administered until the ambulance arrived. Injured #1 was transported by helicopter to an area hospital, and Injured #2 was transported by ambulance to the local hospital and then moved to the burn unit of an area hospital. The victim was transported by ambulance to a local hospital and pronounced dead on arrival. NIOSH investigators concluded that to minimize the risk of similar occurrences fire departments should: ensure that the Incident Commander conveys strategic decisions to all suppression crews on the fire ground and continually reevaluates fire conditions; ensure that fire fighters stay away from downed power lines a distance equal to at least one span between poles until the power line is de-energized; ensure fire fighters are aware of the hazards when working around energized parts or equipment; ensure fire fighters are equipped with the proper personal protective equipment and monitor to ensure its use.\nFire-fighting; Electrical-hazards; Electrical-shock; Protective-equipment; Traumatic-injuries; Region-7; Fire-fighters; Fire-protection-equipment; Fire-safety; Personal-protective-equipment; Injury-prevention; Electrical-conductivity; Electric-power-transmission-lines",

Go to the Library topic for: Nature of God\nGod's Revelation of Himself\nGod the Father, Greater in Authority\nJesus Christ, Revealing the Father\nGod the Father, Greater than the Son\nThen God said, \"Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.\" So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.\nIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.\nJesus said to him, \"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. \"If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.\" Philip said to Him, \"Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.\" Jesus said to him, \"Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. \"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.\nAnd this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.\n\"I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me. 'Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me. And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.\"\nImitate me, just as I also imitate Christ. Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.\nNow the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.\n\"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!\nAt that time Jesus answered and said, \"I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.\ngiving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.\n\"Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,\" which is translated, \"God with us.\"\nJesus answered, \"Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, \"You must be born again.\" The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.\"\nIt is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.\nFor the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,\nwhose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.\nFor this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,\nFor in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily;\nGod, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,\nTo whom then will you liken God?\nOr what likeness will you compare to Him?\nBut Jesus answered them, \"My Father has been working until now, and I have been working.\" Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.\nAnd the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form.\nYou have heard Me say to you, 'I am going away and coming back to you.' If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, 'I am going to the Father,' for My Father is greater than I.\nFor \u201cHe has put all things under His feet.\u201d But when He says \u201call things are put under Him,\u201d it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted. Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.\nThe first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven. As was the man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.\nfor the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head\u2014Christ\u2014\nNow when the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered together to Aaron, and said to him, \"Come, make us gods that shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.\"\nHe answered and said to them, \"Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.\nGo therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,\nThen Jesus said to them, \"When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things. And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him.\"\nLikewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.\nNow to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise,be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.\nInasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For indeed He does not give aid to angels, but He does give aid to the seed of Abraham. Therefore, in all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.\n\"I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception;\nAnd he said, \u201cPlease, show me Your glory.\u201d Then He said, \u201cI will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you.

So I said:\n' Woe is me, for I am undone!\nThe LORD of hosts.'\nNow after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, \"Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.\"\nHe said to them, \u201cBut who do you say that I am?\u201d Simon Peter answered and said, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' Jesus answered and said to him, \u201cBlessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.\nWhile he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, \"This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, \"Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,\" says the Lord. And again, \"The LORD will judge His people.\" It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.\nJames, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad: Greetings.\nFor to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:\nGrace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.\nNo one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.\nLove has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.\nAlso check out the Library topic for: Nature of God",

        "title": "Chris Jones on The Normal Heart and Chicago - Chicago Tribune",
        "raw_content": "In the case of 'Normal Heart,' Chicago shouldn't have been a flyover\nOn very rare occasions, a night at the theater can feel like a red-hot political event. Such was the case last year on Broadway, where the fevered revival of Larry Kramer's seminal AIDS drama \"The Normal Heart\" burned up the Golden Theatre, even as the ever-angry playwright stood on the sidewalk outside, handing out fliers about the disease. Both John Benjamin Hickey and Ellen Barkin delivered riveting performances.\nThat same production has been in the news again this week, after opening to rave reviews in Washington. Kramer, who is not known for being shy, has both been enjoying his victory lap in Washington and engaging in a public spat with Barbra Streisand, who held the movie rights for years but never actually made the film. There is now to be a film, thanks to Ryan Murphy, the creator of \"Glee.\" The cast is to include Julia Roberts, Mark Ruffalo and Alec Baldwin. Kramer is about as happy as Kramer ever gets. Meanwhile, Mantello's production is headed to San Francisco.\nYou can probably guess where it's not headed: Chicago.\nHow ridiculous, given the size of the theater-loving gay population and given Kramer's own long-standing relationship with the city (as I well remember, he worked quite extensively here with the now-defunct Bailiwick Repertory Theater in the 1990s).\nThere were plans to put together a national tour, but those did not pan out. Road presenters are always nervous of plays and most need to book venues for 2,500 people or more. So with a more extensive tour off the table, the show just struck a deal to play in Washington and San Francisco.\nMy point here is that Chicago always needs to be in on those deals. Most of the time, we're not. We can't change the overall taste of the road, but we can make sure we are in that tiny group of cities that supports such projects. A similar situation evolved with \"Other Desert Cities\"(the Broadway production is going to Los Angeles), \"Follies\" (which just closed in Los Angeles) and \"God of Carnage\" (which went to LA in 2011, replete with Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis, James Gandolfini and Marcia Gay Harden). On June 27, Susan Stroman will restage her underrated Broadway production of \"The Scottsboro Boys\" in San Francisco, another production Chicago needed to see.\nWe have the theaters: \"The Normal Heart\" would have looked great in the Broadway Playhouse, and would have done a lot more for local edification and emotional stimulation than\"Rock of Ages.\"And in the case of the Kramer play, I'm convinced we have the audience. It just needs a producer or presenter to step up. Broadway in Chicago could do that. So could one of the big nonprofits.\nThe counterargument, of course, is that Chicago has institutions that like to mount their own productions of recent hits. I'm all for that. And, in some cases, they have improved on the original Broadway productions (Chuck Smith's production of \"Race\" this season at the Goodman Theatre, for instance).\nBut sometimes \u2014 and \"The Normal Heart\" is a prima facie example \u2014 Chicago audiences deserve to see the original production. Just like San Francisco and LA, which also have their own thriving theater scenes that are energized by the arrival of such shows.\nAnd although it's fashionable to bash stars taking all the roles on Broadway, I'm of the view that many (not all) of those stars are stars because they are fine actors. In Chicago, stars on a local stage are very few and far between, Nathan Lane and Brian Dennehy notwithstanding. The occasional appearance of actors like Barkin in Chicago only grow potential audiences for Chicago's plethora of fine theaters.\nConventional wisdom here is that stars don't tour anymore. That's true enough, but when I read about the declining ratings for the Tony Awards earlier this month, I was thinking that the Broadway League would be well-advised to pay more attention to taking its premiere straight-play attractions \u2014 as distinct from cheap non-Equity tours of musicals \u2014 to more of the country. If people actually thought they had a chance to see James Earl Jones in \"Driving Miss Daisy\" or Debra Winger in David Mamet's \"The Anarchist,\" maybe they'd tune in to the Tony Awards.\nIn the current situation, you're much more likely to see one of those shows in London than in Chicago. Some pressure could be put on producers, for the good of the industry, which wants to be a national brand. Perhaps some of those fancy agents looking to find a prestige Broadway gig for one of their clients might buy the negotiation that such a gig must include a few weeks beyond Midtown.\nLA, which offers stars exposure to the film world, is often an easier sell. But Chicago, where we are supposed to be masters of clout, has to exert some pressure to stay in that little clutch of cities that get the boutique attractions. There's no reason \"The Normal Heart\" should be playing Washington and then flying over our town, where it would have been supported and educated a whole new generation of Chicagoans.\nTheater: Tribune stage guide\nOn The Town: 10 things to do this weekend",

The lawsuit demanded to know the identity of the donor.\nA volunteer group called S.T.O.P. -- Sacramento Taxpayers Opposed to Pork -- has been getting signatures in an attempt to stop the new arena by forcing a public vote on the $258 million arena.\nHansen said he \"made a mistake\" by giving the Los Angeles law firm $100,000. The firm secretly funneled $80,000 of that to the group gathering signatures.\n\"While I'm sure everyone can appreciate how easy it is to get caught up the heat of battle, with the benefit of hindsight, this is clearly a decision I regret,\" Hansen said in a statement, according to ESPN.com. \"I wish the city of Sacramento and Kings fans the best in their efforts and they have my commitment not to have any involvement in their arena efforts in the future.\"\nHansen also noted that the money came from him and the donation was not made not on behalf of the Seattle ownership group or its partners.\nIn May, NBA owners rejected Hansen's bid to purchase the Kings for $625 million.\nHansen withdrew his bid to buy the team when the league blocked relocation. The Maloofs sold the team to the Vivek Ranadive group for $535 million.",

It had everything \u2013 to quote the posters: \u201cHeroes. Giants. Villains. Wizards. True Love. Not just your basic, average, everyday, ordinary, run-of-the-mill, ho-hum fairy tale.\u201d My sister and I loved it so much that we reenacted it with our cousins one hazy Labor Day weekend (we both played Buttercup).\nKnowing how much this movie meant to me personally, it was wonderful to read about the recollections Cary Elwes, who played the memorable lead character, collected in his new book As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of the Princess Bride. He covers everything from auditioning for the part of Westley and training with Mandy Patinkin for their sword duel to the twentieth anniversary of the film, and includes interviews from many of his costars and the production team.\nI may be able to quote this movie back to front, but reading As You Wish gave me a rare treat \u2013 the ability to watch this old family favorite with a new eye and a different perspective. I was able to enter into the world of the film through Elwes and even found myself worrying that the movie wouldn\u2019t be a hit, even though I knew that it would eventually become a cult classic. This book is fantastic for anyone who loved The Princess Bride or for anyone who enjoys the memoirs of Hollywood actors.\nAs always, you can put a hold on this book through the Deerfield Public Library catalog right now. While you wait, you can also check out William Goldman\u2019s original tale of The Princess Bride or put a hold on the amazing film version!

This will ensure that you won\u2019t end up having to pay for multiple expensive repairs:\nWhat shape are the floors in? If the floors are hardwood, do they need to be sanded and refinished? Refinishing isn\u2019t very expensive, but it is easier if done before you move in, while the rooms are still empty.\nIf you are looking at an older home that has single panes of glass in the windows, you may need to upgrade to a new set of windows before you move in.\nThe plumbing system should be copper pipes with copper soldering, or PVC piping. Lead pipes mean that the plumbing is old and will need to be upgraded in the future.\nBRICKWORK AND CHIMNEY POINTING\nLook at the brickwork on the outside of the chimney. If it is chipping, crumbling or turning to powder, or if the mortar is starting to fall apart, it could be very expensive to have repaired.\nLook for signs of rotting wood, even under a fresh coat of paint. Soft spots or places where the wood is splintered could be a sign of more widespread damage.\nIs the roof in good condition? A roof is usually good for 20 to 25 years. Some signs that you may need to replace or repair the roof include leaks or water stains near the chimney and on the ceiling of the top floor inside the home.\nSEWAGE AND DRAINS\nHire a qualified inspector to find out if the sewer system and drains are working properly. You should also find out if the sewage service from the street has been upgraded recently.\nIf you are buying an older home, find out if the electrical panel has been upgraded. If the service says 200 amps, it is an upgrade. A 60 or 100 amp panel has probably not been upgraded, and may not be enough to meet the electricity needs of your family.\nFind out where you can park and how many parking spaces come with the house. Many older houses in large cities, such as Montr\u00e9al and Toronto, do not have a garage or driveway. If the house does not have a driveway, can you get a parking permit from the city to park on the street? If not, do municipal regulations allow you to build a driveway or parking spot?\nFind out how old the furnace is, and what kind of energy is used to heat the home. Natural gas is generally the least expensive option, but it is not available everywhere. Oil and electricity are common sources of energy in Canada but are more expensive, especially for a house with baseboard heaters.\nInsulation keeps your house warm in the winter and cool in the summer. If the house has older plaster walls, it probably has little or no insulation. Hiring an insulation contractor to blow extra insulation behind the walls can be expensive, but it will save you money on your heating bills in the long run.",

        "raw_content": "Dt. 30:15-19; Rm. 7:18-20\nChoose Life; \u201cThat which I do I should not and that which I should not do, I do\u201d\nTwo of the foster children that we had when our children were little lived in an abandoned bus in Elizabeth just before they came to us. Both of them were very withdrawn when we first met them because they had spent so much time alone that they appeared puzzled by how to interact with other people.\nFrom what we could later piece together, their parents were loving, but they had been addicted to heroin long enough that the drugs had taken them over. They moved quite often, with their father being fired from his mechanics job every few months. Their mother had been arrested several times for prostitution. As infants and toddlers, we think that their parents would shoot up, turn on the tube, nod out and leave them to essentially entertain themselves at much too early an age. One of them barked more than they spoke and we speculated that they spent most of the time alone with the dog that they thought they could speak \u201cdog\u201d.\nHer older brother grew up dealing with issues of subterranean rage that would surface every once in a while. Sometimes he would get more and more frustrated playing soccer and suddenly he would almost set up a confrontation that would lead to a fight. Other times he would overreact to some friendly wrestling with one of our boys and it would get out of hand. Or he would throw tantrums and break things.\nAs he got older, he had to regularly work on his deportment. He would become sullen, surley and somewhat withdrawn in public. He had a hard time looking people in the eye.\nHis adopted family, my sister and brother in law, worked with him especially on becoming responsible during his teenage years. He has had more challenges than the ordinary kid. He\u2019s had trouble showing up at work consistently and has had to be fired from several jobs, despite the fact that these same people went out of their way to go to bat for him. He\u2019s had trouble calling in to work and taking responsibility for his actions. Unfortunately, when that happens, he is regularly tempted to hang out with other kids that manifest the same attitude, and these kids also take serious narcotics, repeating the cycle for another generation. I hope he can break the cycle but the odds are against him.\nThen you read about kids that grow up in the very same dysfunctional homes, with the very same personal issues that they have to struggle within themselves from the get go but they join the Marine Corps. They go through boot camp, their entire day structured, no exceptions, no qualifications, one standard and one simple path for success and reward.\nI remember going to see the graduating ceremony for our son Ian after he finished Army basic at Fort Benning, Georgia. The kid I could never get to engage in study or get out of bed, standing at attention for nearly an hour. His gear tight packed, uniform perfect, following the rules down to the minute \u2013\u201cDad don\u2019t drive 37; it\u2019s 35.\u201d I called my wife on the phone and said \u201cHoney, I have good news and bad news.\u201d She said, \u201cwell what is the good news first.\u201d I said, \u201cUncle Sam was able to do in 12 weeks what you and I were unable to do in 18 years.\u201d\nIt is amazing. And the soldiers will tell you themselves. \u201cThe training has changed their lives. It taught them how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, how to master their emotions. Most crucially, it taught them willpower.\u201d\nAnd here is the wonderful thing about willpower. It functions pretty much like a muscle. We can exercise it and make it stronger. This is something in your life that you can control. And the stronger your willpower is, the more spiritual charisma you will feel in your life, the more of the sense that you are directing your life.\nChristians have long sensed that this was so important in our lives that it was something of an end in itself. That is why we have had so many monastic centers where you can strengthen your will through fasting and prayer. They are following after the example of Jesus whose life gives every indication that he was principally oriented around strengthening his soul power.\nThroughout his life, he retreats periodically for prayer. And his prayers are increasingly focused on \u201cNot my will, but Thine\u201d O God. He comes face to face with challenges and he has to draw on a divine strength to increase his strength of will, to do for him what he couldn\u2019t do simply by himself.\nAnd the challenges keep getting bigger until finally he is pretty aware that the Roman authorities are going to arrest him and he withdraws to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. The story in Mark says that he prayed so intensely it was like \u2018drops of blood\u2019 formed on his forehead. And he prays a powerful prayer that most of us will have to pray at some point in our life when we are in a boundary situation, often of our own life and death. He says, \u2018let this cup pass from me\u2019\u2026 And then he follows that with, \u201cNot my will, but thine.\u201d I want to take the higher, harder way. It will entail more suffering. It will need more soul power, the Holy Spirit covering us and making us stronger.\u201d\nIn the bible, the word \u2018demonic\u2019 (daimonia in Greek) literally means \u2018to be controlled by others\u2019, \u2018to be controlled by outside forces\u2019. Romans believed that the world was filled with curses and hexes that could bind us in different ways. Today, we might think of it in a slightly different way like addictions in our lives. Anyone who has seen movies like \u2018Spun\u2019 or seen Mickey O\u2019Rourke\u2019s many crystal meth head characters. Anyone who has had friends or relatives subsumed by Oxycontin, Crank, Heroin or Cocaine (or alcohol) knows that there comes this point when people pass over from running their own lives to being \u2018controlled by the drugs\u2019. As the Japanese proverb puts it so well. \u201cFirst you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink; then the drink takes you.\u2019\nSpiritually, they feel possessed. When people are in this condition, spiritually, they feel very weak.\nAnd, by contrast, we have a number of studies right now that are pointing towards an emerging consensus that having strength of willpower may be the single most important indicator of success broadly defined.\nAt the University of Pennsylvania, a study of 8th graders singled out willpower and self-discipline as the biggest correlate among students that made better grades, got into more selective schools. Interestingly, they also had fewer absences, spent less time watching television, spent more time working on homework. This sentence got my attention. \u201cHighly self-disciplined adolescents outperformed their more impulsive peers on every academic-performance variable. Self discipline predicted academic performance more robustly than did IQ. Self-discipline also predicted which students would improve their grades over the course of the school year, whereas IQ did not\u2026. Self-discipline has a bigger effect on academic performance than does intellectual talent.\u201d\nThese findings will undoubtedly start to make a major impact on how we do education in the near future. Character not only counts, as Franklin elementary school remind students weekly, it turns out, character is critical.\nAnd here is the other thing about willpower that everyone should know, it is largely controlled by our habits. Paying attention to our habits is actually more important than any other single thing, partly because our habits run in the background of our lives and we don\u2019t really notice them until we have to. [Look down]. We all have an \u2018O my\u2019 moment where the Doctor or our spouse or a dear friend holds up the proverbial mirror. \u2018O my\u2019.\nAs it turns out, habits actually drive about 42% of all of our daily activities. Wake up, turn off alarm, get coffee, shuffle out to get the paper, feed dog, return to bed, give wife the New York Times because she won\u2019t read the Wall Street Journal, read over her shoulder and make snarky comments about the headline news, brush teeth, shower- all on auto pilot- until I have to make the first actual decision of the day \u2018open collar or tie\u2019. It\u2019s a big decision! Tie loses again.\nIt is amazing just how much of our daily commute, our daily routine, is defined by these habits that run in the background but they are very important as you only realize standing at Starbucks in Penn Station realizing that your daily Grande Latte is actually packing on 450 calories that a black coffee would not.\nSo, Aristotle used to say that what we need to develop throughout our lives is \u2018Self-control\u2019 (Sophrosene in Greek). We need to break our existing habits and form newer ones, better ones. Even in ancient Greece, the Athenian philosophers prided themselves on their freedom of thought and their philosophical prowess. But they knew that when it came to habits, the Spartan soldiers had them beat for self-discipline. If habits are the background processes that are operating all the time below the radar, almost 50% of our total actions, they are very important to control.\nOur researchers today are bearing this out. We\u2019ve figured out that it is critically important to develop keystone habits in our lives. They can make all the difference. Citing one example, James Prochaska, says the keystone habit of \u2026\u201d exercise spills over. There something about it that makes other good habits easier.\u201d\n\u201cStudies have documented that families who habitually eat dinner together seem to raise children with better homework skills, higher grades, greater emotional control, and more confidence. Making your bed every morning is correlated with better productivity, a greater sense of well-being, and stronger skills at sticking with a budget. (You making your bed? You?) It\u2019s not that a family meal or a tidy bed causes better grades or less frivolous spending. \u2018but somehow those initial shifts start chain reactions that help other good habits take hold.\u201d\nAnd in our era, habits are probably going to become more important than ever and being aware of will be as well. As Socrates used to say, \u2018The unexamined life is not worth living\u2019. He said that because you are not in control of forces that you are not aware of and we can only become self-directed and free if we reflective about these controls.\nIn our era, as are starting to become aware, big data is conspiring against us rapidly. Perhaps you saw the New York Times Magazine article recently that begins with a quote from the former chief scientist at Frito-Lay, summarizing the marketing leaps that have been made in the past decade. He said, \u201cI feel so sorry for the public\u201d because we are like putty in the hands of a team of researchers using algorithms.\nThe article is an expose of almost everything you buy in pre-packaged food in the grocery store from the most obvious like cheetos right down to foods you think are healthy kid alternatives like gogurt and how they are loaded with sugar and other additives that create cravings and/or turn off sensors in our brain that normally signal that we are full.\nThe science of taste and craving has improved dramatically in the past decade and a half. Says Mr. Moss, \u201cIt\u2019s not just a matter of poor willpower on the part of the food manufacturers. What I found, over four years of research and reporting, was a conscious effort\u2026 to get people hooked on foods that are convenient and inexpensive.\u201d\nOn one level, we\u2019ve known this for a while but while we were yet sleeping, these guys have gotten much better at using the sophisticated taste spectrometer, mixing this base taste with that texture range, sliding in salt, replacing fat with high fructose corn syrup and packaging it so that you think you are buying a natural Marinara sauce (which is actually loaded with sugar that makes it so tasty).\nThe deck is rapidly stacking against and we aren\u2019t even aware of it. You don\u2019t have to be the Nanny of Gotham, Michael Bloomberg, to figure out that science which manipulates our cravings and creates bad habits makes us spiritually weaker, physically unhealthier, and ultimately not as fulfilled or directing our lives as we would like.\nAnd it won\u2019t be limited to just food either. In the era of Big Data, marketers will shortly figure out how to get you to do all sorts of things with enough information about your history, your tastes, your involvements. They will be able to predict for you like the type-ahead suggestions you use on you your search engines.\nAll of which is to say that intentionally forming our habits and intentionally forming our character is already far more important that we have given voice and it is going to get more important in this next chapter of our lives.\nTo really live in freedom, we\u2019re going to have to become more and more aware of how the habits that we have developed below the radar are developing unhealthy consequences that need to be managed. We are going to have to understand how habits work and get better at making new habits to replace ones we inherited from our past. And we are going to have to figure out how keystone habits impact other smaller habits.\nSocrates and Jesus were both right that free women and free men control their habits rather than their habits controlling them. St. Paul was pretty right when he observed that his internal life felt like a war. \u201cI do not do the good that I want, but the evil I do not want is what I do.\u201d Today we can show you on a MRI screen that when you are thinking about what you should do, the frontal cortex of the brain lights up that controls logic and future planning and when you impulsively reach for that cookie in the middle of the night, the amygdale, the primitive part of the brain in the lower cortex, lights up. We can have all the great insight we could possibly want to have, but if we can\u2019t translate that into changed habits, nothing significant will happen.\nMy brothers and sisters, find your freedom and become intentional about your habits. And may we strengthen one another in our life together, giving each other encouragement and a vision of a more rigorous but a better life. May we stumble on the magic equation that combines discipline and love.",

Speculation (reached through \u201csources\u201d) was that the script bore some similarities to Whedon\u2019s script and the studio picked it up to avoid a potential lawsuit in the future. How wrong we all were \u2013 but that\u2019s what happens when you don\u2019t have all the pieces.\nWe still may not have all of the pieces, but we do have one big one now \u2013 Joss Whedon is no longer on the project anymore. According to a post the \u201cFirefly\u201d creator made on his official blog, he and the studio did not see eye to eye on the direction or budget of Wonder Woman so he\u2019s been distanced from the project due to \u201cnon-simpatico.\u201d There is no indication in Whedon\u2019s post as to who left who, but it appears at the least to have been amicable.\nThe writer attacks the subject with his usual flair and style, admitting the most important thing about this news is that he can finally do interviews again because he no longer has to worry about \u201cthat question\u201d \u2013 you know, the one we opened our story with yesterday: \u201cWho will play Wonder Woman?\u201d He claims he never got through the script process enough to even consider an actress for the role.\nWhere will Warner Brothers and Joel Silver go with Wonder Woman now?

        "raw_content": "Home Tips to Prevent Hair Loss\nEverybody in their adult life has had the hair loss scare in their life.

        "raw_content": "A lot tougher than it looks: Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JP Morgan Chase's big plan to lower health costs\nAmazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JP Morgan Chase announced Tuesday that they're banding together to create a company that wants to reduce health-care costs and improve services for U.S. employees.\nHealth spending represents 18 percent of U.S. gross domestic product and is expected to reach 20 percent by 2025.\nExperts question whether Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JP Morgan Chase can lower costs and improve outcomes.\nAngelica LaVito\t| Dan Mangan\nAmazon, Berkshire and JPMorgan Chase to partner on health-care 4:01 PM ET Tue, 30 Jan 2018 | 01:23\nThree of the country's most powerful companies coming together to use technology to improve the health-care system \u2014 and lower the system's costs along the way \u2014 sounds like a great idea.\nBut turning that idea into reality will be tough, experts said Tuesday.\nAmazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JP Morgan Chase announced Tuesday that they're banding together to create a company geared toward reducing health-care costs and improving services for U.S. employees.\nBut the trio was light on the details beyond saying the new independent company's initial focus would be on developing \"technology solutions\" and that the firm would be \"free from profit-making incentives and constraints.\"\n\"The ballooning costs of healthcare act as a hungry tapeworm on the American economy,\" Berkshire CEO Warren Buffett said in a statement. \"Our group does not come to this problem with answers. But we also do not accept it as inevitable. Rather, we share the belief that putting our collective resources behind the country's best talent can, in time, check the rise in health costs while concurrently enhancing patient satisfaction and outcomes.\"\nGregg Slager, group leader of Ernst & Young's global health transaction advisory services division, said the three companies' desire to control health costs makes sense, given the fact that those costs are increasing, along with the patients' direct responsibility for health bills. But banding together may not be sufficient to change the health-care system's costliest components.\nHealth spending equals 18 percent of the nation's gross domestic product and is expected to reach 20 percent by 2025. The bulk of health-care expenses are hospitals and physicians, according to National Health Expenditure data compiled by Evercore ISI.\nEvercore health-care analyst Ross Muken told CNBC that bending the overall health-cost curve \"isn't about controlling drug prices, modernizing the supply chain or improving devices.\"\n\"Those are all relatively small parts of spending and some of those parts are deflationary already,\" Muken said. \"This is about getting to the guts of the system and where the inefficiency lies, which is physicians and hospitals.\"\nIn a note to clients published Tuesday, Muken said the stated mission of the companies' venture \"seems remarkably well placed as the government has failed at managing costs in healthcare for decades.\"\n\"However, despite all the money and brain power likely devoted to what is going to be a seemingly [not-for-profit] effort the challenge here is massive. The reality is that a majority of the costs in the system sit within organizations that are difficult to reform and currently borderline profitable (providers),\" he said.\n\"Furthermore, trying to tackle physician compensation also seems like a heroic effort and one that is likely to cause massive uproar, particularly amongst the senior population.\"\nExperts noted that one way employers have tried to address their health costs is by narrowing networks of medical providers covered by insurance plans, limiting which doctors, hospitals and labs patients can go to for care without paying significantly more out of pocket.\nThis new partnership could possibly create a new care network that steers people away from expensive sites of care when it's unnecessary, said Tim Van Biesen, a partner in Bain & Company's health-care practice.\nOne possibility is Amazon creating a platform that can direct patients to lower-cost options such as telemedicine or walk-in retail clinics. But whether that and other hypothetical steps taken by the three companies will result in markedly lower overall costs is still unknown.\nAlso, the trio is not the first group of outsiders to try to disrupt the health-care space.\n\"This industry has seen some big companies try and change and exit as quickly as they came in,\" said Vaughn Kauffman, U.S. health services and new entrants advisory leader at PwC.\nThe new joint venture \"could be disruptive\" and put competitive pressure on pharmacy giants CVS and Walgreens and pharmacy benefit managers, said Mickey Chadha, a vice president at Moody's. But he added that the regulatory burden around every aspect of health care puts \"any new entrant in the space at a huge disadvantage, and companies like CVS, Walgreens, United Healthcare, Aetna and Express Scripts already have large scale, which allows for better vendor and drug manufacturer contracting and the ability to serve national clients.\"\nExperts have anticipated more deals and vertical integration in the wake of CVS announcing its intention to buy Aetna. That deal \"is even more compelling as a more coordinated approach to medical care is necessary to lower the overall health-care costs for consumers,\" Chadha said.\nBut Craig Garthwaite, director of the health enterprise management program at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, said the thin amount of detail in the press release announcing the companies' venture does not give much reason to believe it will result in radical change in health costs.\n\"While we don't know their business plan, there's not a lot of optimism their press release generates given it's just retreading a lot of buzzwords given by people who don't really think about how to lower costs and improve quality of health-care,\" Garthwaite said.\nGary Claxton, vice president of the Kaiser Family Foundation, said the biggest driver of health costs is the money spent on sick and very sick people.\n\"It's not clear what private payers can do\" to drive down those costs, Claxton said, referring to insurance plans such as those offered by Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway, J.P. Morgan Chase and other businesses, as opposed to large publicly provided health coverage systems such as Medicare and Medicaid.\nClaxton said that once a patient is undergoing treatment for their condition, costs can quickly pile up without the patient themselves having the time or the inclination to shop around for a better price, particularly when their health plan is picking much of the cost.\n\"If you're in cancer treatment or your kid's in cancer treatment, are you looking to save the next marginal dollar?\" Claxton asked. \"No.\"\nThe relatively high cost of the American health-care system \u2014 which is much higher than that in other wealthy countries \u2014 makes it an attractive target for companies that believe they can save money by finding efficiencies and doing business differently than it has been done in the past, said Claxton.\nThere have been prior initiatives by non-health-care companies to band together regionally to try to lower their combined health costs. Some have had \"modest success,\" at best, Claxton said. However, none of them lowered their costs so dramatically that their model was adopted on a broad scale.\nA new entrant trying to disrupt health-care costs faces a system that has already seen large-scale consolidation across different subsectors of the industry \u2014 including insurers, hospitals and drug companies \u2014 that will make squeezing out extra dollars in savings more difficult, Claxton said. And in the areas where big savings might be possible, there is often a reluctance to take the steps necessary to achieve those savings.\n\"We're not in the business of saying, 'We don't want new drugs developed,'\" Claxton said.\nHe also cited the case of one CEO he had heard of who was told his company's health plan could save $1 million annually by cutting out a local hospital from the network of providers covered by the plan.\nDespite the fact that the area where the company was located did not lack for other hospitals, Claxton said, the CEO rejected the idea out of hand.",

        "raw_content": "Sprawling and Struggling: Poverty Hits America's Suburbs\nAllison Linn\nDavid Friedman | NBC News\nTara Simons, left, and her daughter Alexis talk in their kitchen in West Hartford, Conn.\nLike many Americans who move to the suburbs, Tara Simons came to West Hartford, Conn., because she wanted her daughter to grow up in a nice, safe place with good schools.\nHer fall from a more financially secure suburban life to one among the working poor also happened for the same reason it's happened to so many others. She had a bout of unemployment and couldn't find a new job that paid very well.\nAs a single mother, that's made it hard to hold on to the suburban life that is, in her mind, key to making sure her daughter gets off to the right start.\n\"I'm basically paying to say I live in West Hartford,\" she said. \"It is worth it.\"\nIt's a struggle that many Americans bruised by the weak economy can relate to.\nThe number of suburban residents living in poverty rose by nearly 64 percent between 2000 and 2011, to about 16.4 million people, according to a Brookings Institution analysis of 95 of the nation's largest metropolitan areas. That's more than double the rate of growth for urban poverty in those areas.\n\"I think we have an outdated perception of where poverty is and who it is affecting,\" said Elizabeth Kneebone, a fellow at the Brookings Institution and co-author of the research. \"We tend to think of it as a very urban and a very rural phenomenon, but it is increasingly suburban.\"\nSimons' situation is complicated by the fact she's a single mom. Poverty and financial insecurity among single moms is far higher than for households headed by single dads or two parents.\nThe rate of poverty among single mothers actually improved dramatically through the 1990s, thanks to a strong economy, more favorable tax breaks and the success of so-called welfare-to-work programs. But two recessions and years of high unemployment erased many of those gains.\nMoving for a Better Life\nSimons and her daughter Alexis moved from Massachusetts to West Hartford eight years ago because Simons had a job with a local rug retailer.\nAlexis, now 14, made friends, became an avid lacrosse player and is now a high school freshman.\nThe picturesque suburb, with its well-kept homes and an upscale town center, has a median household income of $80,061, more than double that of Hartford itself, which is $29,107 according to the Census Bureau.\nAnd yet the number of people needing help has skyrocketed in recent years, said Susan Huleatt, the human services manager for West Hartford.\nAbout five years ago, Huleatt said a mobile van began coming to town once a month to distribute fresh produce to people in need. Now, four vans come each month, and more than 200 people sometimes line up for the food. That's in addition to the city's own food pantry.\nSimons expected to work for the rug retailer until retirement, but about a year ago she quit after disputes with one of the two owners. She had never had trouble finding a new job and was unprepared for how hard it would be.\n\"I know that part of it is my fault and I absolutely take responsibility for that, but I never in a million years thought that I would (be in this position),\" she said.\nSimons went without work or unemployment benefits for five months before she got her current job about six months ago. The position, as a customer service representative for a local health products company, pays $14 an hour. That leaves her with take-home pay of about $460 to $480 a week, plus about $127 a week in child support. Simons has full custody of her daughter.\nShe is behind on her electric and gas bills and owes nearly $400 to her daughter's club lacrosse team, which has her worried that her daughter won't be able to play this spring.\nLike many working poor people, she has fallen into a debt spiral. She took out an $800 payday loan, and she estimates that it will end up costing her $1,600 to pay it back. She also has several hundred dollars in credit card debt and has worked to pay off hundreds of dollars in bank overdraft fees. She's sold jewelry for cash.\n(Related Story: JPMorgan Reining In Payday Lenders)\nShe and Alexis had to leave the house they were renting after she lost her job and a roommate. She got one-time aid from the city's crisis fund to help with the down payment for her new, cheaper apartment. Still, the $1,125 rent eats up more than half of her monthly take-home pay.\nShe went on Medicaid after being unable to afford health insurance.\nSimons said it's been hard, and sometimes embarrassing, to accept help.\n\"The thing is, I don't want it,\" she said. \"I want to pay my bills.\"\nHoping for a Break\nSimons has continued to apply for jobs daily, hoping to land a higher-paying position with health insurance she can afford.\nOne morning in early March, she got a break. A rug retailer about 40 miles from West Hartford offered her a job interview.\nExcited and anxious, Simons carefully picked out her clothes and fretted about her hair. She was too nervous to eat.\nA few hours before the interview, her boyfriend Phil Volonis stopped by to give Simons some gas money. Her 2005 Chevrolet Cavalier had broken down the day before, so he had lent her a car.\nLater that evening, Simons walked out of the interview confident that she had done well, but still not sure if she had gotten the job.\nDriving home in the pouring rain, Simons said that while living in West Hartford has been good for her and her daughter, she dreams of moving somewhere warmer.\nShe mused that perhaps Alexis will go to University of Florida\u2014which has a good women's lacrosse team\u2014and she could move down there, too.\nBut for now, she said, she would do almost anything to keep her daughter in this town.\n\"The kid's been through enough,\" Simons said. \"So, I just want her to feel as safe and settled as possible, and I want her to know that she can count on her mom to keep her where she is and keep promises.\"",

        "raw_content": "Sleep Apnea Treatment Columbus, OH\nSince 2004, Dr. Firouzian in Columbus, Ohio is one of a select few dentists in the country with equipment to screen you for a potentially serious condition called obstructive sleep apnea. This is a condition whereby a person stops breathing for more than 10 seconds at a time throughout the night. Undiagnosed and without sleep apnea treatment, it can lead to cardiovascular problems such as high blood pressure, heart attacks, and stroke. It can contribute to obesity and systemic illnesses like diabetes. It can even cause or contribute to psychological problems depression and other mood disorders. Many people who snore actually suffer from sleep apnea.\nWhy Do We Snore?\nSnoring occurs when your airway is partly obstructed. This creates a turbulent airflow that causes your tissues to vibrate, creating the sound of snoring.\n10%-30% of all adults snore, and many snorers may experience physical problems related to sleep apnea. Snoring can greatly reduce the ability to sleep well. There are different stages of sleep, and you must spend enough time in deep sleep to experience a restful night. When you airway is partly restricted, you have difficulty reaching and staying in deep sleep. As a result, you may feel tired throughout the day.\nSnoring may seem harmless. However, it could also be the sign of a serious sleep disorder breathing condition such as upper airway resistance syndrome or obstructive sleep apnea. Risk factors for snoring and sleep apnea include weight gain, age, family history and anatomic abnormalities.\nThe Greek word \u201capnea\u201d literally means \u201cwithout breath.\u201d People with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often for a minute or longer. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is caused by a blockage of the airway, usually when the soft tissue in the rear of the throat collapses and closes during sleep.\nThe most commonly recommended treatment for OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Although CPAP is highly effective, it can be uncomfortable for some people, and it\u2019s not well tolerated.\nDr. Firouzian helps people who need sleep apnea treatment find an alternative to CPAP. This has been a very fulfilling part of his career due to the life-altering results it provides for patients suffering many years from sleep apnea. Dr. Firouzian in Columbus, Ohio works closely with sleep specialists in treating OSA patients.\nTo learn more, see Sleep Apnea Questions.\nIf you are in the Dublin, New Albany, Columbus, Ohio and surrounding areas and need sleep apnea treatment for your symptoms, and are looking for potential dental related sleep apnea treatment, please contact us today to set up your appointment.",

Feel like you don't learn as well as you should in school or on the job?\nDoes your child have ADHD, a Learning Disability, or problems in school?\nWe will identify learning strengths and weaknesses and recommend strategies that you or your child can use to become a more effective learner. If you are not sure if you or your child has a learning problem, we'll talk about how to get that diagnosed and in some cases, I will provide the diagnosis and accommodation reports.\nIf you have a child with a diagnosis, I can help you understand how to be an effective advocate in school and other areas.\nWhether you are a child or an adult, counseling is helpful to remedy some of the self esteem and anger issues resulting from not being a \"normal\" learner.

        "title": "Church of Our Saviour Singapore \u00bb More than Special",
        "raw_content": "By Charlene Ong. Posted on April 14, 2015 .\nWeird. Crazy. Sub-human.\nI teach at a school for children with autism, and this is a choice selection of comments I typically hear about those with special needs.\nI never expected to work with special needs individuals. In fact, because I believed my background to be vastly different from this vulnerable population, I had perceived myself as somewhat invulnerable by comparison.\nAt nine, I was the pint-sized \u2018chilli padi\u2019 who won the 800m race at sports day \u2013 the runner-up was a whole head and shoulders taller than me. That marked the start of an eight-year long winning streak for my pet-event at sports day in school. I was also the one who breezed through the requisite IQ tests to school in the Gifted Education Programme. To add to that, I was musically inclined, and these talents came to the fore when I rose up as a leader in church. With all the recognition I received from my talents, I was puffed up with pride and didn\u2019t realize that I had looked down on those who were not as successful as I was.\nSince starting work in June 2014, God has been molding me through my work. I needed to stop looking down on those I considered weak and instead, learn to respect and empower them, loving them with the love of God Himself.\nI have been tested and found wanting in many ways. There are days when my temper is short and I become impatient with the students. There are times when I demand unreasonably high standards from them. In doing so, I have not served them well. When this happens, I recognize that my love is insufficient and I am brought to a place of utter dependency on Jesus because the love of God never fails. He is always gentle and long-suffering with the students. He always seeks first to understand them. He always empowers them to be the best that they can be.\nAre we truly that different from those with special needs? Do we not have our own vulnerabilities that we expect those close to us to forgive us for? Are we not all disordered in one manner or another?\nWe may not possess abnormally enlarged brains like individuals with autism may have, but we might have disordered thought patterns \u2013 a protracted struggle with lust, anger or bitterness; or tinted lenses through which we view the world. Some of us are even tempted to think these thoughts: \u201cpeople don\u2019t value me\u201d, \u201cI don\u2019t understand why everyone and everything is just out to get me\u201d. Some of our struggles seem more normal or even socially acceptable and some may not even see that they have a problem. But nonetheless, we all fall short of the glory of God.\nDo we dare believe that our full acceptance of those with special needs will take our church one step closer to her destiny? Do we dare believe that an army of chosen ones (including and especially those with special needs) can be empowered to change the world? Will we speak up for those who cannot speak up for themselves? Will we understand what it means to value people \u2013 to build the kind of ministry that is true to the heart of Jesus?\n\u201cSpeak up for those who cannot speak up for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.\u201d \u2013 Proverbs 31:8\n\u201cWe want something else which can hardly be put into words \u2013 to be united with the beauty we see\u2026\u201d (C. S. Lewis). Writing is Charlene\u2019s endeavour to enter into the beauty she sees, to connect dots that may help us see more clearly the face of God.\nBeit Av \u2013 My Father\u2019s House Devotional: Why did Jesus raise Lazarus?

        "raw_content": "Tupac Shakur: Rap Revolution\nDrawing of Tupac Shakur. Photo: Wikipedia\nA look a the political life of Tupac Shakur, and the implications for today's black movement, from Sean Ledwith\nCoppers said Freeze, or you'll be dead today\nDark and I couldn't see tha light\nTwenty year ago, on September 7th, Tupac Shakur was gunned down by an unknown assailant in Las Vegas. He clung onto life for a few more days but the wounds he sustained proved to be fatal. Like many icons of modern American culture, his untimely death marked to be the beginning of a global phenomenon that would give him even greater fame than he had known in his lifetime. Of the 75 million Tupac albums sold worldwide, the vast majority have been since 1996. Part of the reason for his posthumous reputation has been the consistent release of material unpublished in his lifetime; 7 of his 11 platinum albums have been released since his death. The more significant factor, however, must be that his music of resistance still resonates with millions of people around the world, most obviously with African American urban youth. If anything, his powerful message of defiance in the face of an oppressive and racist state is become more relevant as the US stumbles from one high-profile incident of police violence to another, with no solution in sight.\nThe explosive rise of the Black Lives Matter campaign in this decade underlines the ongoing resonance of many of his lyrics and tragically provides a soundtrack to the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Michael Brown and scores of other black Americans killed every year at the hands of the US police. Like many revolutionaries, Tupac has been partially commodified and sanitised after his death; his image re-packaged as a dependable source of profit for record companies and fashion labels. He will never be entirely acceptable to mainstream US opinion, however, as his radical political heritage cannot be fully assimilated by a capitalist system that has racism at its core. When Ferguson was rocked by urban rebellion two years ago, many protestors carried placards bearing the words of Tupac.\nPanther Legacy\nTupac\u2019s radical political legacy was shaped even before his birth. His mother, Afeni, was a leading member of the Black Panther Party that challenged the US state in the late 1960s. Founded by Bobby Seale and Huey Newton in Oakland in the wake of the assassination of Malcolm X, the BPP represented an intensification of the struggle for civil rights that had gripped the country since Martin Luther King\u2019s campaign against segregation in the South. Malcolm and the Panthers both marked a re-orientation of anti-racist activism away from the rural South and towards the urban northern cities; and also away from non-violence and towards greater willingness to confront the institutions of the state with the threat of retaliatory violence. The response of the US government was uncompromising in its ruthlessness and an object lesson in how capitalist states will resort to extreme brutality if threatened from below. FBI Director, J Edgar Hoover, created a new unit-the Counter Intelligence Program-specifically designed to destroy the organisation by any means necessary, and with a grimly prophetic goal to \u2018Preventthe rise of a messiah who could unify and electrify the militant nationalist movement\u2019.\nDestruction of the Panthers\nOver a 6 year period, 28 members of the Panthers were killed in gun battles with the police; most infamously, Fred Hampton, drugged and murdered in his sleep by Hoover\u2019s agents in Chicago in 1969. In the same year, Afeni Shakur, along with twenty other members, was charged by the NYPD with plotting multiple bombings. Remarkably, she conducted her own courtroom defence, exposing the police case as a tissue of lies. She still had to spend the next two years in prison awaiting the verdict, and it was while behind bars she gave birth to Tupac in 1971. Even her choice of name for her son reflected Afeni\u2019s radical background-Tupac Amaru being the name of an Inca leader in Peru who had fought Spanish colonists in the sixteenth century. Tupac acknowledged the sacrifices made by his mother, both during this period and later when she experienced crack addiction, in his track \u2018Dear Mama\u2019:\nTupac\u2019s stepfather, Mutulu Shakur, was also an active member of the Black Panthers, spent many years on the FBI\u2019s most wanted list and is currently serving a 60 year sentence in the US for masterminding a series of bank robberies. Tupac\u2019s 1990 track \u2018Changes\u2019 references Huey Newton, the co-founder of the Panthers, who survived a police shooting in 1967, only to die 15 years later in an argument with a drug dealer:\n2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead\nThe crucial contradiction of Tupac\u2019s tragically short life (dying at the age of 25) was that he was a child of the high tide of black nationalism in the late sixties and early seventies but had to grow up when the movement was in retreat due to the onslaught of the US state and political confusion among its most prominent leaders. Newton, Seale, Eldridge Cleaver and others argued over the strategic paths available to the Black Panthers; with the latter believing the party should go underground with an emphasis on guerrilla-style attacks on the police; while Newton and Seale argued for an increased participation in the mainstream political process. The combined effects of Hoover\u2019s devastating Cointelpro network and this political fragmentation led the movement into the political wilderness as Tupac was growing up in New York and Baltimore. He witnessed not just the retreat of black nationalism but also the related rise of the New Right, most decisively in Reagan\u2019s election to the White House in 1980. The spirit of collectivism and solidarity that had characterised the best of US politics in the 1960s was supplanted by the rapacious individualism of neoliberalism that stubbornly remains at the core of both the Democrat and Republican parties. Marxist critic, Tony McKenna, eloquently notes how this is the political context to much of the artist\u2019s output:\nTupac\u2019s tragedy, and his brilliance, lies in the fact that he was the living embodiment of this contradiction. He carried within himself the conflict between the universal tenor of community struggle and the narrow horizon of personal acquisition and individual gain.\nTupac himself was aware of how he represented a generation of black activists who had the misfortune to develop in the aftermath of a crushing political defeat and were struggling to identify a new trajectory in a society that appeared wholly unsympathetic to their plight:\nIt\u2019s like, you hungry, you reached your level. We asked ten years ago. We was asking with the Panthers. We was asking with them, the Civil Rights Movement. We was asking. Those people that asked are dead and in jail. So now what do you think we\u2019re gonna do? Ask?\nTupac and his generation had to locate a new personal and cultural strategy in the aftermath of the killings of leaders of the calibre and courage of Malcolm, MLK, Fred Hampton, and Huey Newton. They also had to seek it in a political environment in which Ronald Reagan, and then Bill Clinton, were regarded as the apex of political aspirations.\nMany people might be deterred from Tupac\u2019s music by the most reactionary aspects of the contradiction referred to McKenna; the undoubted misogyny and glorification of personal acquisition that frequently features not just in the rapper\u2019s work but prominently in the wider hip-hop genre. The derogatory language and portrayal of women in some rap music and videos clearly represents a huge step backwards from the liberatory impulses of the 1960s; progressive trends that permitted women such as Tupac\u2019s mother to attain an elevated status in the Black Panthers. Tupac himself was not always immune from this sexist mentality, and served a sentence for aggravated sexual assault shortly before his death (even though he always maintained his innocence). However, he was painfully aware of this dark side of hip-hop and understood the importance of curtailing it in order for the black community to re-connect to the long-term project of social revolution. His musical philosophy of \u2018THUG LIFE\u2019, as described in the iconic tattoo on his chest, was founded on highlighting not just the alienation and criminality that blighted the African American experience in the US, but also how those features were the product of the counter-revolutionary role models provided by the Reagan-inspired elite. The phrase was not, as his critics might assume, a mindless glorification of random violence but a crudely effective message on the roots of social inequality: \u2018The hate you give little infants fucks everyone\u2019.\nFrom Tupac to Trump\nBeginning under Reagan and continuing up to the present, levels of inequality in the US have intensified, providing the backdrop to the racism that would perceive THUG LIFE as nothing more than anti-social belligerence. Commenting on the hypocrisy of Reaganite trickle-down economics, Tupac observed:\nHow could Reagan live in a White House, which has a lot of rooms, and there be homelessness? And he's talking about helping. I don't believe that there is anyone that is going hungry in America simply by reason of denial or lack of ability to feed them. It is by people not knowing where or how to get this help.\nTupac\u2019s uncompromising attacks on inequality brought the wrath of the establishment down on him in his lifetime. Vice-President Dan Quayle named Tupac specifically as a malign influence on American youth and was just one of countless conservatives to claim the hip-hop genre was the main source of violence in the black community. At the same time, mainstream politicians have occasionally tried to exploit Tupac\u2019s ongoing popularity for political advantage. Republican Senator Marco Rubio, for example, recently making the laughable claim that he admired Tupac\u2019s music but condemned his politics, as if the two could be separated.\nRubio\u2019s campaign for the Presidency, of course, has been crushed by the Trump steamroller. The latter was already making a name for himself as the unacceptable face of capitalism in Tupac\u2019s time, much to the rapper\u2019s disgust: Everywhere, big business, you want to be successful? You want to be like Trump? Gimme, gimme gimme. Push push push push! Step step step! Crush crush crush! That\u2019s how it all is, it\u2019s like nobody ever stops.\nIt is intriguing to speculate on how Tupac, if he had survived the shooting in Las Vegas two decades ago ,would have reacted to the possibility that confronts America today of Trump being sworn in as the 45th President; possibly something the lines of his 1996 track \u2018Trapped\u2019-\nIt's time I lett'em suffer tha payback\nI'm tryin to avoid physical contact\nI can't hold back, it's time to attack jack\nDie by the sword?\nTupac\u2019s murder is usually portrayed as a case of live by the sword, die by the sword. However, there is a political dimension to the shooting that has echoes in the shocking episodes involving more recent cases of denied justice such as Philando Castille earlier this year. Many would not want to go as far as author David Potash who argues Tupac was the victim of a similar act of state terrorism as the ones that killed Panthers in the 1960s such as Bobby Hutton and Fred Hampton, but comedian Chris Rock incisively highlighted how the rapper\u2019s death is emblematic of the US elite\u2019s disinterest in its most downtrodden communities, as manifested in the numberless unsolved African American deaths:\nTupac was gunned down on the Las Vegas Strip after a Mike Tyson fight. How many witnesses do you need to see some shit before you arrest somebody? More people saw Tupac get shot than the last episode of Seinfeld.\nStick in the Wheel in Dublin - gig review\nRestoration Tragedy review - an experimental encounter between early music, punk and politics\nTagged under: Capitalism Racism Music Revolutionaries Black History Black Power",

        "raw_content": "There were no major injuries reported in the incident near Vernon\nThe Transportation Safety Board says it will investigate after a hot air balloon taking part in the winter carnival in Vernon, B.C., crashed on Friday.\nPolice say a wind draft may have caused the balloon to strike a rock face, then collide with power lines near the highway south of Armstrong.\nA hot air balloon came in contact with a power line Friday morning.\nA pilot, who flies commercially in Kelowna, hit a line near Armstrong while flying in the North Okanagan Hot Air Balloon Festival (a Vernon Winter Carnival event).\n\u201cHe hit a power pole and the envelope (balloon) is destroyed but everyone is fine,\u201d said Deb White, Carnival chairperson.\n\u201cJust a fluke accident.\u201d\nIn fact, the pilot isn\u2019t deterred from flying again.\n\u201cHe does have another (balloon) and he\u2019s just trying to get the log book so he can go back up again,\u201d said White.\nIt\u2019s unknown what caused the crash, which took place near the Tolko mill around 10 a.m.\nVernon RCMP responded to reports of the collision but said that initial stages of the investigation show that the balloon may have encountered an updraft from wind that forced the balloon to strike a rock face of a hill adjacent to the highway, causing it to then collide with the power lines.\n\u201cOfficers have made contact with the pilot and the six passengers on board the board at the time of the incident,\u201d said Cst. Kelly Brett. \u201cNo injuries have been reported to the RCMP, and no obvious signs of damage to the power lines. However, BC Hydro has been notified.\u201d\nThe investigation has now been turned over to the Transportation Safety Board.\nEvan Erickson 27, was not involved in the incident but was one of the pilots flying over Vernon Friday morning.\n\u201cIt\u2019s very rare but power lines are the number one balloon danger and they\u2019re harder to see in winter,\u201d said Erickson, who has been flying for three years.\n\u201cYou can be very precise with a balloon if the winds aren\u2019t doing crazy things.\u201d\nIt\u2019s the first time White can remember a crash in the 28-year history of the festival.\nIn fact, this year\u2019s festival got off to a great start for the pilots and crew as they raced to see how far they could fly Friday morning, leaving an empty lot across from Home Depot and making it to Armstrong.\n\u201cThey said on the positive side, speaking with one of the runners\u2026this is one of the best runs they\u2019ve ever had,\u201d said White.\nSee: Skies clear in Vernon\nThe North Okanagan Hot Air Balloon Festival is in its 28th year.\nThe balloons are scheduled for a second flight Friday, two on Saturday and one more on Sunday \u2013 all weather dependent.",

        "title": "The Evolution of Lending Club - CreditLoan.com\u00ae",
        "raw_content": "The Evolution of Lending Club\nLearn how Lending Club grew from a small Facebook app to a platform that has originated over $30 billion worth of loans and growing.\nLending Club is among the biggest peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platforms around today.\nIt is not a traditional lender like a bank with personal loans. Instead it works similarly to many crowdfunding websites you're probably familiar with, like Kickstarter.\nLending Club matches up borrowers and investors. Investors don't need to satisfy entire loans on their own and can contribute as little as $25 for a share in a larger loan. This way, the risk gets spread across many investors.\nBorrowers can get their money fast with just a quick application, while also getting fair interest rates.\nIt's definitely a great platform that provides a win-win opportunity for everyone involved.\nMore than its business model, Lending Club also had a few other tricks up its sleeve that contributed to its success which we'll discuss later on.\nThe company has indeed seen lows and lofty highs since it entered the business scene in 2006.\nHere is how the unconventional business got started.\nHow a Facebook app rose to become one of the world's biggest peer-to-peer lenders\nLending Club is a company that started with humble beginnings.\nIt was founded in 2006 by Renaud Laplanche, and then launched in 2007 as one of the first Facebook applications.\nLaplanche got the idea of the company's business model when he realized that there was a lot of money to be made in loans, that's why the banks are in it.\nBanks were essentially the middlemen who are mainly profiting from other people's money.\nWhen he was approaching banks for funding for his first startup, he recognized private individuals, (like friends and family who heard about his struggle with the banks' loan terms), who had funds to spare and were willing to lend to him to get his company off the ground.\nWith a bit of luck and a lot of elbow grease, Laplanche made Lending Club one of the first peer-to-peer lending platforms that allowed borrowers to request unsecured personal loans straight from individual investors.\nWithin the same year of its Facebook launch, Lending Club was able to raise $10.26 million in a Series A funding round, with support from investors Canaan Partners and Norwest Venture Partners.\nThis financial backing allowed Lending Club to finally develop into a full-scale, peer-to-peer lending company.\nIt was the first P2P lender to register its offerings as securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).\nLending Club is now the world's largest peer-to-peer lending platform.\nIt has issued over $33 billion in loans to date, and currently has a market cap of about $1.3 billion.\nFunds from the company have helped with 2,400 weddings, 121,000 home improvement projects, and 13,500 vacations, according to a Lending Club spokesperson.\nThe platform has also delivered $337 million to small businesses.\nThey use the money for purchasing new inventory, working capital, expanding their businesses. Or simply to consolidate their debt.\nThe Lending Club timeline has included some rough patches that you should be aware of\nEvery successful company has gone through challenges and Lending Club is no different.\nThe company went through a scandal in 2016 that led to the resignation of the company's founder and former CEO.\nThree of the firm's other managers also were fired or resigned in relation to internal discrepancies.\nIn April 2016, an employee at Lending Club reported that the dates on approximately $3 million of the company's loans appeared to have been altered.\nThe company's internal auditor consulted with an outside firm to investigate.\nThe investigation found additional problems with Lending Club's loans.\nThis included $22 million worth of loans sold to the Jefferies investment bank.\nThese loans did not meet the bank's investment criteria, and Lending Club ended up buying the loans back from the bank and reselling them.\nThe New York Times and Wall Street Journal both reported on an investigation into the company.\nThe investigation found CEO Laplanche had not disclosed that he owned part of an investment fund that Lending Club was considering purchasing.\nClass action lawsuits have also been commenced against the company by The Law Offices of Vincent Wong and Levi & Korsinsky LLP.\nThey allege that Lending Club issued materially false and misleading statements.\nThese included the statement that consumers would receive a loan with \"no hidden fees.\"\nThey also claim that Lending Club did not comply with legislation that would have subjected Lending Club's practices to a heightened level of regulatory scrutiny by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).\nOn April 25, 2018, the FTC issued a press release alleging that Lending Club violated both the FTC Act and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act by falsely promising customers a loan without hidden fees.\nIt has also allegedly failed to provide customers with a clear privacy notice.\nLending Club has already paid a $2 million settlement over unlicensed loan servicing and small loan lending in Massachusetts.\nBut don't panic. I understand that all of the points above about some of Lending Club's more shady practices can be scary to read.\nDespite all the bad news, Lending Club is still the market leader when it comes to peer-to-peer loans.\nSure, people will miss Renaud Laplanche. But he isn't the first finance CEO to resign and won't be the last.\nThe Lending Club Model\nLending Club grew its loan portfolio to $33 billion by doing three key things\nLending Club grew to the world's largest P2P lending platform because of a few critical decisions made early on: making things easy, offering protection, and going hybrid.\nLending Club banked on simplicity to pull customers away from larger institutions\nThe Lending Club loan application process is faster and easier than requesting a loan through a traditional bank.\nThat's a critical advantage that puts the company into its own category.\nThere aren't any long and complicated forms to fill out. You don\u2019t need to meet face-to-face with a loan officer or wait days and weeks for your loan to get approved.\nIf you decide to accept the loan offer, you'll start to see people investing in your loan right away.\nFunding happens quickly, and the money goes straight into your bank account.\nLending Club also offers automated buying and selling of loans.\nSay you're an investor who wants to invest in loans through Lending Club.\nYou have the option of opening an account and manually building your portfolio.\nTo do this, you need to diversify your loans by putting as little into $25 into different loans.\nIf you have thousands to invest, this creates hundreds of tiny investments for you to manage. Doesn't sound appealing, right?\nThankfully there's LendingRobot, a tool that automatically lists, prices, and reprices loans made on the platform.\nIt's a new tool from Lending Club that automatically lists, prices, and reprices loans made on the platform.\nIt also reinvests your income into loans with the highest potential return available on Lending Club at any given time.\nThat means you no longer need to go to the Lending Club website and sift through thousands of different notes.\nYou don't have to check all the investments you want to sell one by one anymore either.\nAnd of course, previously you would've had to price all of those loans on your own.\nThe fact that Lending Club is an online-only marketplace helps keep its business costs down.\nThe company has a very low overhead cost compared to traditional banks who need to spend more for the upkeep and employees' salaries of multiple physical locations.\nIt is then able to pass a good chunk of these savings on to its borrowers and investors.\nThose savings help customers reduce the cost of existing debt.\nDebt consolidation and auto loans\nIn fact, one of the most popular reasons borrowers use Lending Club is to consolidate existing debt, due to its favorable rates.\nAbout 60% of borrowers take out loans for this.\nOn average, they end up paying about 24% less interest than they would have through other means.\nThey also report an average increase of 28 points to their credit score.\nAuto refinancing is another popular use for Lending Club loans.\nCar owners can save hundreds or thousands of dollars over the life of their loan by using the platform.\nIf your car meets specific age and mileage criteria, you pay no origination or application fees to Lending Club.\nProtecting the ecosystem so that both investors and borrowers feel secure\nBorrowers can take out unsecured loans which are paid back between 3 and 5 years. This presents a risk for lenders and to manage that, Lending Club created a grading system.\nUsing information like your income, credit score, and debt-to-income ratio Lending Club decides if you're creditworthy.\nThen it assigns a credit grade once you get approved for a loan. Your credit grade decides what your payable interest rate and fees will be.\nEvery online loan application through Lending Club gets evaluated and gets assigned a risk grade based on the points I listed above.\nThere is a range of grades that a loan request can receive.\nThe highest grade available on Lending Club is A. The lowest is G.\nThese grades get broken down even further than this, though.\nLoans receive further risk-based adjustments and get assigned a number 1 through 5.\nFor example, A1 would receive a more favorable interest rate than A5.\nA G5 rating is the riskiest loan available on the platform, and has the highest borrowing rate possible as a result.\nInvestors can use this grading to see the level of risk involved with a loan.\nIt provides them with a clear idea of where a borrower falls in terms of their ability to repay a loan.\nAs an investor, you can then take on a high level of risk to get rewarded with more interest.\nOr you can opt for a safer loan that bears lower interest.\nHow Lending Club moved to a hybrid model to maintain control and protect its reputation\nLending Club started out as just a matchmaker.\nIt connected borrowers and lenders through its platform.\nIt didn't originally hold any loans itself. Investors who funded loans and then wanted to resell them at a later point used to be on their own.\nThis meant that Lending Club had little control over how these deals got structured or when they came to market.\nInvestors could sell their loans to third parties or use them as collateral for bonds.\nThis was a big deal since these transactions could affect Lending Club's reputation even though it wasn't directly involved.\nThe company's original model also didn't make use of the firm's balance sheet at all.\nIt relied exclusively on loan sales.\nThis gave investors too much pricing power over loans.\nLending Club is now allowing investors to sell their loans back to a securitization trust that the company sponsors.\nThis ensures a level of uniformity to the bond offerings and increases economies of scale for everyone involved.\nThis move also means that Lending Club is assuming some of the risk.\nBy sponsoring its own securitizations, the company is required to hold 5% of the economic risk to satisfy risk retention rules.\nKey points your business should take away from Lending Club's story\nWhether your business is in the financial industry or not, it doesn't matter.\nThere are some broad points that any company can take away from Lending Club's case study.\nTake a peek at your current business model and see if any of these points could help you make improvements.\nLesson #1. Ease of use for customers should always be at the forefront.\nIt doesn't matter what industry you're in.\nThe business that can eliminate the most complexity and provide the best overall user experience will always gain a competitive edge.\nSignups should be short and only gather necessary information.\nIf you can automate part of the process, that will definitely help too.\nJust offering the same thing as your competitor, but making it faster and more accessible is often enough to set you apart.\nAmong your top goals should be to always make your customer's experience as frictionless and effortless as possible.\nLesson #2. Don't be too rigid with your business model.\nLending club shifted from its original business model.\nIt went from just matching up borrowers and lenders to a hybrid model.\nIn the process, it began to securitize loans in addition to selling them.\nThis was a required step to protect the reputation and integrity of the business.\nThe peer-to-peer model made Lending Club vulnerable to market disruptions.\nThe company also went through a scandal that led to the firing of its CEO and rocked its business.\nMaking the shift to a hybrid model allowed Lending Club to survive.\nIt brought back a level of trust to borrowers and investors who had their confidence shaken by previous news about the company.\nLesson #3. Being on the crutch of another platform can serve you for some time, but it can also hold you back.\nLending Club began as a Facebook app in 2007.\nIn fact, it was one of the first apps.\nThat didn't help though, and it wasn't until much later that Lending Club turned into a big business.\nCounting on the social network for users was actually holding the company back, rather than helping.\nIn 2007, Facebook was mostly a place for college students.\nThe people who used Facebook at the time weren't Lending Club's target customers and didn't align with the company's needs.\nLending Club had to ultimately wean itself off of Facebook.\nIt had to stop using the platform as a crutch and go out into the world to make a name for itself on its own.\nLending Club didn't really achieve any significant level of success until it made the break from Facebook.\nThe peer-to-peer lending industry has benefited millions of borrowers and investors; it wouldn't have become what it is today without Lending Club\nLending Club has truly pioneered the peer-to-peer lending industry.\nIts story shares some key things which resulted in the company's astounding success.\nMaking loans extremely simple and easy for customers made them a great alternative to banks.\nBy ensuring it protected both borrowers and investors, it created an environment where a rich lending market could thrive.\nBy changing to a hybrid business model, it was able to weather the storm that rocked it to its core.\nAlso, by sponsoring its own securitizations, the company was able to regain the confidence of the marketplace and continue not just to survive, but to flourish.\nHave you ever borrowed or invested money through Lending Club?\nShare your experience in the comments section below.",

With this, we translated all our brochures into French, which can be found on our website. Furthermore, we\u2019re currently working on translating our website to French. With this new dealer CS-Reisemobile is now represented in France, Switzerland, Belgium, Norway as well as Russia. This shows just how much more important export has become, especially in regards to four-wheel-drive. The amount of four-wheel-drive vehicles we export is around 30% and rising.\nA New Generation of CS-Reisemobile\nWith the daughter, Laura now working at CS-Reisemobile for seven year \u2013 three of which as a trainee automobile salesperson \u2013 and the son Till who has been a foreign trades trainee for one and a half year, we will soon also welcome Laura\u2019s husband, Philipp Oltmanns into the company. The trained banking administrator will be reinforcing the young generation that will eventually continue the company in the future\nLithium-Ion-Battery now available at CS\nLithium-Ion-Batteries have become very common in everyday life. Nearly every Smartphone and other electronics use them. Lithium-Ion-Batteries have many advantages over the old battery technology. A few important things are the reduced weight, the ability to recharge in a very short amount of time and having all the charged power constantly and completely usable. Appliances that require large amount of capacity haven\u2019t been compatible to lithium batteries so far, due to the relatively high price. However, lithium-batteries are an investment into the future, as they\u2019re able to be charged a lot more often than gel batteries. Thanks to being able to supply its\u2019 entire charge the lithium battery has the same amount of power output with comparatively lower capacity. The 160 Ah lithium battery is able to supply nearly the same amount of power output as our standard 235 Ah gel battery. Another very noticeable advantage is the reduction in weight. Compared to the 72 kg gel battery, the lithium battery only weighs 33 kg. In an era of better equipped but also heavier base vehicles this is a very nice side-effect. Lithium batteries work especially well in conjunction with a powerful inverter, due to the batteries ability to take large amounts of electricity as input and output. Combined with a strong charge booster or recharger, the lithium battery can be recharged within a very short amount of time. At the moment we offer the new battery technology for an extra price of around 2,600 \u20ac. This contains the price for a charge booster, which is indispensable for EURO 6 vehicles. Like most other technical areas, it can be expected, that the price for lithium batteries will drop in the future. At that point it will become standard technology for CS-Reisemobile.",

The needs of a person, equipment and also, the purpose of using the lasers are some of the things that have to be looked at when people are choosing to useless. In general, lasers are used for different purposes like, helping in the manufacturing industry to cut metals and other items, it also helps in the medical industry for things like laser light therapy and also, for entertainment purposes in laser light shows. Laser light shows mainly involve the use of laser lights to entertain and this is through putting them in different colors. In the past, there are people that created the laser lights shows specifically for that purpose aware, the laser lights were the source of entertainment but today, things are a bit different. Laser lights are available today from different companies and they help in organizing of festivals, events and concerts. It is very important for you to look for company in your region that is going to provide you with these unique services so that you can enjoy them.\nIf this job is done by the right people, the laser lights are going to be a lot of fun without any problem. If you are in the South Florida region, there are companies that usually provide such services in different cities and regions. Another interesting thing about laser light shows is that they are able to give you a lot of benefits if you work with the right people. The use of the laser technology was very unique and very expensive in the past but today, technology has made it more simple and because of that, more accessible. If you are going to choose technicians that are able to help you, you have to really concentrate on the right people that are able to give you the best services. The laser light shows are perfect because the laser lights will be in different colors for example, green red and yellow. For entertainment places for example, a music Festival, these colors can change a lot of things about how people feel about the event.\nIn addition to that, the laser lights can always be manipulated through graphics into forming different kinds of images and shapes. No one is going to be injured during the laser light shows because of the simple fact that the lasers are available in very protective features and because of this, no one will be exposed to any harmful things.",

        "raw_content": "Deduction Beyond First-Order Logic\nJasmin Christian Blanchette (VU University of Amsterdam, NL)\nCarsten Fuhs (Birkbeck, University of London, GB)\nViorica Sofronie-Stokkermans (Universit\u00e4t Koblenz-Landau, DE)\nCesare Tinelli (University of Iowa \u2013 Iowa City, US)\nMuch research on automated deduction has traditionally focused on automated reasoning in first-order logic. First-order logic with equality is generally considered a sweet spot on the logic design continuum. Yet, from the point of view of several applications it can be too restrictive as a modeling and reasoning tool. In recent years, there has been a realization that while first-order reasoning is very useful to discharge the bulk of proof obligations, it must be tightly integrated with richer features to be useful in many applications. Practical problems often need a mixture of first-order proof search and some more advanced reasoning, for instance, about non-first-order-axiomatisable theories, higher-order formulas, or simply higher-level reasoning steps.\nFirst-order logic cannot be used to finitely axiomatize many interesting theories, such as those including transitive closure operators, inductive predicates, datatypes, and standard arithmetic on integers or reals. Even provers that provide native support for some of these theories typically fail to prove trivial-looking problems because they lack general support for mathematical induction. Some applications need a richer set of constructs than those provided by first-order logic such as, for instance, the separating conjunction (*) and magic wand (-*) connectives of Separation Logic or the disjunctive well-foundedness predicates used in HSF, a popular approach to software model checking based on first-order Horn logic.\nThere are potential synergies between automatic first-order proving and verification methods developed in the context of richer logics. However, they have not received enough attention by the various deduction sub-communities so far. In general, there is a cultural gap between the various deduction communities that hinders cross-fertilization of ideas and progress.\nThis Dagstuhl Seminar brought together experts in automated reasoning in first-order logic and researchers working on deduction methods and tools that go beyond first-order logic. The latter included specialists on proof methods for induction, proof planning, and other higher-order or higher-level procedures; and consumers of deduction technology whose specification languages contain non-first-order features. The main goal of the seminar was to exchange ideas and explore ways to facilitate the transition from first-order to more expressive settings.\nResearch questions that were discussed and answered at the seminar included the following:\nWhat higher-order features do applications need, and what features can be incorporated smoothly in existing first-order proof calculi and provers?\nHow can we best extend first-order reasoning techniques beyond first-order logic?\nCan proof-assistant-style automation and first-order reasoning techniques be combined in a synergetic fashion?\nWhat are good strategies for automatic induction and coinduction or invariant synthesis?\nIs a higher layer of reasoning, in the spirit of proof planning, necessary to solve more difficult higher-order problems?\nJasmin Christian Blanchette, Carsten Fuhs, Viorica Sofronie-Stokkermans, and Cesare Tinelli\n13411: \"Deduction and Arithmetic\" (2013)",

        "raw_content": "'Whining' Trump threatens 'multi-million dollar' lawsuit over ads from conservative group that claim he favors tax hikes\n$1 million ad buy blasts Trump as a closet liberal who would hike taxes and confiscate 14.25 per cent of the wealthiest Americans' net worth\nAds are based on a position Trump took in 1999, but which he has since said was unwise\nTrump lawyer is threatening to sue the Club For Growth and its president for libeling him\nClub's president says 'our ads are accurate ... We suggest that Donald grow up, stop whining, and try to defend his liberal record'\nA legal war of words broke out Tuesday between Donald Trump and the Club For Growth after the conservative policy group launched a $1 million ad campaign that claimed the billionaire would raise taxes if he won the 2016 presidential election.\nAlan Garten, an attorney representing the billionaire Republican front-runner, sent a scathing letter to Cluc For Growth president David McIntosh, warning that Trump was prepared 'to take all necessary and appropriate actions to bring an immediate halt to your defamatory Attack Ads' \u2013 including a 'multi-million dollar lawsuit.'\nThe ads seek to rebrand Trump as a phony conservative with a 'very liberal' record and claim Trump wants to impose the 'highest tax increase in history' by confiscating 14.25 per cent of the net worth of America's richest people.\nTrump, whose net worth is more than $10 billion, staked out that position more than 15 years ago, but he has since said it was a bad idea.\nSCROLL DOWN TO WATCH THE AD AND READ THE LAWYER'S DEMANDS\nThe Club for Growth is spending $1 million on ads bashing Trump for his past associations with Democrats and tax proposals in his distant past that the club disagrees with today\nGarten wrote that the ad is 'replete with outright lies, false, defamatory and destructive statements and downright fabrications which you fully know to be untrue.' For a public figure like Trump, that definition clears the bar for libel under U.S. law.\nIn a statement in November 1999 \u2013 just months after the Club For Growth was founded, Trump spelled out the policy proposal in his own words.\n'I would impose a one-time 14.25% net worth tax on individuals and trusts with a net worth of over $10 million,' he wrote then. 'For individuals, net worth would be calculated minus the value of their principal residence. That would raise $5.7 trillion that we would use to pay-off the national debt.'\n'Personally this plan would cost me hundreds of millions of dollars \u00ad but, in all honesty, it is worth it,' he added.\nTrump said he would also repeal the federal government's inheritance tax at the same time, if he were ever in a position to do it.\nAt the time, Trump had left the Republican Party and joined New York\u2019s Independence party, the state\u2019s version of the Reform Party \u2013 under whose banner billionaire Ross Perot ran for president in 1996.\nMcIntosh, a former Indiana congressman, has leveraged his group's ad to generate television exposure that has put Trump, the ultimate play-offense political warrior, decidedly on defense.\n'What has to be done is tell the truth about his record, and he's certainly not doing it,' he said Monday on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe' program.\n'His trade policy comes straight out of the union playbook,' McIntosh added, while hammering The Donald on tax increases, healthcare, and eminent domain.\n'He relies on the government to do and tell businesses how to run their businesses,' McIntosh claimed.\nHispanic DREAMers shout down Jeb Bush in Houston until he...

As Trump tells it, he would respond from the Oval Office with a decree that every car brought across the border would be slapped with a tariff that would erase the company's savings from employing cheaper labor.\n'Donald Trump\u2019s threat to impose new taxes on U.S. car companies will hurt the American economy and cost more American jobs,' McIntosh said in August. 'It should thrill liberals and Democrats everywhere that Trump wants to create new taxes and start a trade war to force American companies to work where he demands.'\nThe acrimony ramped up after mid-June, when Trump declined the club's written request for a $1 million contribution. His campaign released that letter over the summer.\nThe Club for Growth is spending $1 million on ads bashing Trump for his past associations with Democrats\nTrump had harsh words for McIntosh on Tuesday.\n'I am not surprised the dishonest, irrelevant and totally failing Club for Growth has resorted to attacking the definitive front runner, especially after I refused to contribute to their pathetic group,' he said in a statement.\n'We will be releasing my current tax proposal, which is a major decrease in taxes, in the next week and will continue to expose the two faced hypocrisy of the Club for Growth and the problems groups like this perpetuate within a broken Washington, D.C.'\nHe claimed that the club 'very openly and shamelessly attempted to extort Mr. Trump to the tune of $1 million in exchange for political support.'\nBut McIntosh fired back, insisting that his group's ads will continue to scream through the airwaves in Iowa, New Hampshire and other key primary states.\n'Tough guy Donald Trump starts whining when his liberal record is revealed,' he said. 'Trump has advocated higher taxes numerous times over many years, just like he\u2019s advocated for universal health care, the Wall Street bailout, and expanded government powers to take private property.'\n'Trump\u2019s own statements prove that our ads are accurate,' he said. 'They will continue to run.

Like him, his father John Chafee was a Rhode Island governor and US senator, but also served as Secretary of the Navy. Lincoln was appointed to his Senate seat when his father died in office.\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9:Former Maryland governor. Former city councilor and mayor of Baltimore, MD. Former Assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia.\nFamily: Married to Katie Curran (1990) and they have four children. Curran is a district court judge in Baltimore. Her father is Maryland's attorney general. O'Malley's mother is a receptionists in the Capitol Hill office of Democratic Sen. Barbara Mikulski.\nReligion: Christian (nondenominational) Base: War hawks and economic centrists\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9:Former U.S. senator from Virginia. Former U.S. Secretary of the Navy under Ronamd Reagan. Former Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs.\nEducation: B.A. US Naval Academy (transferred from the University of Southern California). J.D. Georgetown University.\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9:Former secretary of state. Former U.S. senator from New York. Former U.S. first lady. Former Arkansas first lady. Former law school faculty, University of Arkansas Fayetteville.\nFamily: Married to Bill Clinton (1975), the 42nd President of the United States. Their daughter Chelsea is married to investment banker Marc Mezvinsky, whose mother was a 1990s one-term Pennsylvania congresswoman.\nAchilles heel: A long series of financial and ethical scandals has dogged Clinton, including recent allegations that her husband and their family foundation benefited financially from decisions she made as secretary of state. Her performance surrounding the 2012 terror attack on a State Department facility in Benghazi, Libya, has been catnip for conservative Republicans. And her presidential campaign has been marked by an unwillingness to engage journalists, instead meeting with hand-picked groups of voters.\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9:U.S. senator. Former U.S. congressman. Former mayor of Burlington, VT.\nFamily: Married to Jane O\u2019Meara Sanders (1988), a former president of Burlington College. He has one child from a previous relationship and is stepfather to three from Mrs. Sanders' previous marriage. His brother Larry is a Green Party politician in the UK and formerly served on the Oxfordshire County Council.\nBiden would be a natural candidate as the White House's sitting second-banana, but his reputation as a one-man gaffe factory could keep Democrats from taking him seriously.\nFamily: Married to Columba Bush (1974), with three adult children. Noelle Bush has made news with her struggle with drug addiction, and related arrests. George P. Bush was elected Texas land commissioner in 2014. Jeb's father George H.W. Bush was the 41st President of the United States, and his brother George W. Bush was number 43.\nClaim to fame: Jeb was an immensely popular governor with strong economic and jobs credentials. He is also one of just two GOP candidates who is fluent in Spanish.\nAchilles heel: Bush has angered conservatives with his permissive positions on illegal immigration (saying some border-crossing is 'an act of love) and common-core education standards. His last name could also be a liability with voters who fear establishing a family dynasty in the White House.\nCarly Fiorina Former tech CEO\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9: Former CEO of Hewett-Packard. Former group president of Lucent Technologies. Former U.S. Senate candidate in California.\nAchilles heel: During his first term as governor, Jindal signed a science education law that requires schools to present alternatives to the theory of evolution, including religious creationism. His staunch defense of businesses that want to steer clear of providing services to same-sex couples at their weddings will win points among evangelicals but alienate others.\nFamily: Married to Melania Trump (2005). Divorced from Ivana Zeln\u00ed\u010dkov\u00e1 (1977-92) and Marla Maples(1993\u201399). Five grown children. Trump's father Fred Trump amassed a $400 million fortune developing real estate.\nClaim to fame: Trump's niche in the 2016 campaign stems from his celebrity as a reality-show host and his enormous wealth \u2013 more than $10 billion, according to Trump. Because he can self-fund an entire presidential campaign, he is seen as less beholden to donors than other candidates. He has grabbed the attention of reporters and commentators by unapologetically staking out controversial positions and refusing to budge in the face of criticism.\nAchilles heel: Trump is a political neophyte who has toyed with running for president and for governor of New York, but shied away from taking the plunge until now. His billions also have the potential to alienate large swaths of the electorate. And his Republican rivals have labeled him an ego-driven celeb and an electoral sideshow because of his all-over-the-map policy history \u2013 much of which agreed with today's today's democrats \u2013 and his past enthusiasm for anti-Obama 'birtherism.'\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9:U.S. senator. Former Texas solicitor general. Former U.S. Supreme Court clerk. Former associate deputy attorney general under President George W. Bush.\nAchilles heel: Cruz's father Rafael, a Texas preacher, is a tea party firebrand who has said gay marriage is a government conspiracy and called President Barack Obama a Marxist who should 'go back to Kenya.' Cruz himself also has a reputation as a take-no-prisoners Christian evangelical, which might play well in South Carolina but won't win him points in the other early primary states and could cost him momentum if he should be the GOP's presidential nominee.\nJim Gilmore Former Virginia governor\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9: Former governor and attorney general of Virginia. Former chairman of the Republican National Committee. Former U.S. Army intelligence agent. President and CEO of the Free Congress Foundation. Board member of the National Rifle Association\nEducation: B.A. University of Virginia.\nFamily: Married to Roxane Gatling Gilmore (1977), with two adult children. Mrs. GIlmore is a survivor of Hodgkin's lymphoma\nClaim to fame: Gilmore presided over Virginia when the 9/11 terrorists struck in 1991, guiding the state through a difficult economic downturn after one of the hijacked airliners crashed into the Pentagon. He is nest known in Virginia for eliminating most of a much-maligned personal property tax on automobiles, working with a Democratic-controlled state legislature to get it passed and enacted.\nAchilles heel: Gilmore is the only GOP or Democratic candidate for president who has been the chairman of his political party, giving him a rap as an 'establishment' candidate. A social-conservative crusader, he is loathed by the left for championing the state law that established 24-hour waiting periods for abortions. Gilmore also has a reputation as an indecisive campaigner, having dropped out of the 2008 presidential race in July 2007.\nClaim to fame: 'Huck' is a political veteran and has run for president before, winning the Iowa Caucuses in 2008 and finishing second for the GOP nomination behind John McCain. He's known as an affable Christian and succeeded in building a huge following on his weekend television program, in which he frequently sat in on the electric bass with country & western groups and other 'wholesome' musical entertainers.\nAchilles heel: Huckabee may have a problem with female voters. He complained in 2014 about Obamacare's mandatory contraception coverage, saying Democrats want women to 'believe that they are helpless without Uncle Sugar.' He earned more scorn for hawking herbal supplements in early-2015 infomercials as a diabetes cure, something he has yet to disavow despite disagreement from medical experts.\nJohn Kasich Ohio governor\nR\u00e9sum\u00e9: Governor of New York. Former chairman of the U.S. House Budget Committee. Former Ohio congressman. Former Ohio state senator.\nEducation: B.A. The Ohio State University.\nFamily: Married to Karen Waldbillig (1997). Divorced from Mary Lee Griffith (1975-1980).\nClaim to fame: Kasich was Ohio youngest-ever member of the state legislature at age 25. He's known for a compassionate and working-class sensibility that appeals to both ends of the political spectrum. In the 1990s when Newt Gingrich led a Republican revolution that took over Congress, Kasich became the chairman of the House Budget Committee \u2013 a position for a wonk's wonk who understands the nuanced intricacies of how government runs.\nAchilles heel: Some of Kasich's political positions rankle conservatives, including his choice to expand Ohio's Medicare system under the Obamacare law, and his support for the much-derided 'Common Core' education standards program.\nREPUBLICAN DROPOUTS\nRick Perry, former Texas governor\n(withdrew Sept. 11, 2015)\nScott Walker, Wisconsin governor\nDonald Trump threatens 'multi-million dollar' lawsuit over Club 4 Growth ads",

(Allie Beth Allman)\nOne of Dallas\u2019 top residential sales firms has been purchased by investor Warren Buffett\u2019s growing real estate empire.\nAllie Beth Allman & Associates, a 12-year-old company that specializes in high-end home sales, has been acquired by HomeServices of America Inc., a Berkshire Hathaway affiliate.\nAllie Beth Allman, one of North Texas\u2019 top residential firms, sold about 2,100 houses last year valued at $1.5 billion.\nAllman said her company wasn\u2019t for sale until Buffett\u2019s firm approached her.\n\u201cFor them to call me was a great honor,\u201d Allman said. \u201cThey are recognized throughout the world for their integrity and how they operate.\n\u201cWe are the only real estate company they bought that has only had one office.\u201d\nAllie Beth Allman has more that 300 agents working out of its Preston Center office and sells homes in markets including North Dallas, the Park Cities, Turtle Creek, Uptown and Lakewood.\nWhen asked why Berkshire Hathaway is so interested in investing in North Texas, Buffett responded in an email, \u201cWe know when we are on to a good thing.\u201d\n\u201cAllie Beth Allman & Associates is a strong company with an exceptional reputation in a growth market,\u201d Ron Peltier, HomeServices\u2019 chairman and CEO, said in a statement.\n\u201cThis transaction aligns with our vision of acquiring distinguished companies in leading markets that share our core values.\u201d\nTerms of the purchase were not disclosed.\nHomeServices, the second-largest U.S. property sales firm, has about 26,500 real estate agents operating in 480 offices in 27 states, which operate under a variety of brand names, including Prudential Real Estate and Real Living Real Estate.\nIn 2015, the Buffett-owned company expects to handle more than $77 billion in residential real estate sales and more than 220,000 transactions.\nExpect more real estate company mergers, said Steve Murray of Colorado-based industry consultant RealTrends.\n\u201cWhere our merger and acquisition and valuation practice normally has 12 to15 active clients, for the past 12 months we are running double that number consistently,\u201d Murray said.\n\u201cMany brokerage firms do not want to wait to make a change until the next slowdown/downturn comes.\n\u201cThey do not want to chance it. That and the complexity of the market is much, much higher now.\u201d\nAllman said her company\u2019s sale has been in the works only about a month.\nAllie Beth Allman & Associates will continue to operate under its familiar brand name and with current management, she said.\n\u201cOur sign is not changing,\u201d she said. \u201cA strip will be added that we are a Berkshire Hathaway affiliate.\n\u201cThe only thing that\u2019s changed is I no longer have to pay the bills \u2014 that feels real good.\u201d\nAllman, who\u2019s sold houses to former President George W. Bush, business moguls and sports team stars, said she has no plans to retire.\n\u201cWhat would I do if I didn\u2019t come up here every day? This is my life,\u201d she said. \u201cI checked with the companies they\u2019ve bought to make sure they made no changes in management.\u201d\nThe backing of Berkshire Hathaway will allow the company to keep up with new technologies and add offices if it chooses, Allman said.\n\u201cIn today\u2019s work, it\u2019s so hard to have a single-office company and keep up,\u201d she said. \u201cI thought this sale was the best thing I could do for my company.\u201d\nAnd Allman said it it\u2019s a plus to sell out to \u201cthe richest man ever.\u201d\nSome of Allie Beth Allman's recent home listings include Dallas businessman Tom Hicks' 25-acre North Dallas estate.",

        "title": "Parents say Preston Hollow day care misled them about threatening phone calls | North Dallas | Dallas News",
        "raw_content": "Parents say Preston Hollow day care misled them about threatening phone calls\nFiled under North Dallas at Dec 2016\nParents of children at a North Dallas day care center are shaken after administrators failed to alert them to an anonymous threat that \"something big was going to happen\" earlier this week.\nWhen parents dropped their toddlers off Monday morning at the popular Preston Hollow Child Development Center, an armed off-duty police officer was standing guard outside.\nThe upset parents met with United Methodist Church of Preston Hollow pastor Mike Nichols, and he acknowledged that the explanation they'd been given for the added security was not completely accurate.\nAs parents dropped their children off Monday, school personnel handed them letters indicating security had been increased because of \"disgruntled parents\" whose children had been permanently removed from the day care because the parents were unhappy with how the center was being operated.\nThe letter said the center had taken precautionary security measures in case those parents tried to \"escalate\" the situation.\nBut Monday evening, Nichols told several concerned families that the security was added after the center received anonymous threatening phone calls, possibly for as long as three weeks.\nParents who requested the meeting with Nichols recorded his explanation.\n\"The ... [call] that came this past week or weekend threatened that something big was going to happen today at school,\" Nichols said.\nWhen asked why parents were not notified, Nichols said it was because \"we don't normally communicate with the parents on the weekends.\"\nLilly and Markus Neubauer have removed their daughter from the day care as a result of the school's handling of the incident. Two other couples also pulled their children out.\nThey were among the families who requested the meeting with Nichols because they had concerns about the initial explanation and how it was communicated.\nThe Neubauers said the families that were removed from the day care had merely expressed concern about the treatment of a longtime employee \u2014 hardly a matter for fear.\nThose families did not receive emails notifying them that their children were being removed from the school until Sunday \u2014 the day after the phone call Nichols described.\n\"Since you are clearly not happy, we believe that it is time for you to find a new child care program,\" the email said.\nThe Neubauers said the situation with the parents gave them no concern for their daughter's safety.\nThe anonymous phone calls are a different matter, they said.\n\"We likely wouldn't have sent her to school Monday if we had known about that threat,\" Lilly Neubauer said.\nIn the audio that was recorded of the meeting, the parents can be heard gasping in surprise when they learn there had been a threat they had not been informed of.\nOne upset mother said the day care had misled parents by focusing attention on the families that had been removed from the center.\n\"If I knew that there was a threat, no, my daughter would not be here,\" she said on the recording.\nDespite what Nichols said Monday, he told The Dallas Morning News on Friday that no threat had been made against the center.\nSaturday's anonymous call, he said, included \"grumblings\" about him and three other people in the center's administration, not the school itself.\nNichols said there was \"no perceived threat,\" so parents and law enforcement were not notified, but that security was added as a precaution.\nHe did not explain why he told parents Monday night that a threat had been made.\nIn an email sent to parents Friday, school officials said that the incident had been perpetuated by a lack of communication on behalf of the school and that measures have been taken to prevent that from happening in the future.\nThe letter that was sent to parents and the information that was given by Nichols in Monday's meeting, they said, \"did not do an adequate job\" of conveying the motives for the added security measures and were not transparent.\n\"Parents should have been notified over the weekend of the phone call received and plans for a police officer presence so that they could decide whether they felt comfortable bringing their children to school on Monday,\" the email said.\nDay care centers are required to report safety risks \u2014 including threats \u2014 to parents and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.\nA report was filed Monday about Preston Hollow Child Development Center, an official at the agency said. The state is investigating the report, which will be released within 30 days. Authorities have not said whether the center or a parent filed the report.\nSome parents say they have long been frustrated by the center's administration. Others said it has never been an issue.\nThe day care, which has a notoriously long wait list, has received 27 citations in the last two years for state violations, such as not fingerprinting employees, use of \"harsh treatment\" and not completing a required incident report.\nParents say the day care hadn't informed them of any violations. The state does publish citations, including those against the Preston Hollow facility, online.\nNichols said the center does not have a system to notify parents of incidents like Monday's, but parents said the school has used email and text alerts in the past for more routine communications about snow days and other events.\nInforming parents and law enforcement of any incidents or threats is a basic best practice, said Kathy Martinez-Prather, director of the Texas School Safety Center.\n\"Anytime you have a threat, it\u2019s critical that you communicate with your local law enforcement whether or not threats are credible,\" Martinez-Prather said. \"And standard practice is that everything that happens is documented and sent home to parents.\"",

        "raw_content": "Forgotten images: an old roll of film reveals unknown children and mothers\n\"The film sat on a shelf for years with my collection of antique cameras, many of which date back to the early years of the last century. The film had to be as old -- three skinny spools that were likely used in a camera like one in my collection. With darkrooms becoming obsolete in this age of digital photography, I finally decided to develop the film.\"\nThat's how a story I wrote in 2006 began and I was recently thinking about it because I'd discovered another roll of exposed film in a camera and had it developed. There were no images on it but there were several on some rolls I'd done before.\nRead the rest of the story here if you're interested in the nuts and bolts about how I developed the film and what I found.\nIt's not unusual to find vintage prints and negatives at flea markets, garage sales and antique stores. It is rare to find film that was exposed but not developed. With that article we were able to only run two of the images but here I can show more. There's not a lot of variety but each has it's own little story within the frame like most photographs do.\nThese images meant, or were supposed to mean, something to the person who shot them and to the sujects. Yet they never took the next required step back in the day, way before our age of instant gratification. I've always wondered why? So who are these mystery children and mothers?",

        "raw_content": "In commemoration of Presidents\u2019 Day, let\u2019s stroll down memory lane and revisit the history of the U.S. presidential car. The official land-bound vehicle of the head of government is more than a mode of transport. It stands as a symbol of the leader and his or her country. The U.S. presidential car has a long and colorful history that started in the early 1900s.\nIn the past, U.S. presidents used horse-drawn carriages as their official transport vehicle. At the end of the 1800s, automotive technology improved rapidly. Manufacturers created various vehicles that run on either electricity, steam, or gasoline. In 1907, the U.S. Special Service, a group tasked to protect the president\u2019s welfare and safety, saw the need to modernize. Therefore, they decided to use a steam-powered presidential car to escort then President Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s carriage. That car, a White Motor Company product, must have proven it\u2019s worth because shortly after, U.S. presidents ditched the carriage in favor of the car.\nThe Early History of the U.S. Presidential Car\nPresident William Taft (1909-1913) was the first U.S. president to finally transition from carriages to automobiles. In 1911, he ordered the conversion of the White House stables into a garage. He bought four cars. These formed the initial fleet of presidential state cars. Two of the cars were made by Pierce-Arrow. One was a Baker Motor Vehicle while the fourth was a White Motor Company steam car (similar to the one used by the Special Service).\nFranklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945) is the first president to have a presidential car with a \u201cpersonality\u201d. His 1939 four-door Lincoln was specifically modified during the height of World War II. It was fitted with bulletproof glass, metal plated armor, and a submachine gun. This \u201cJames Bond\u201d worthy car was nicknamed Sunshine Special and started a trend of bestowing a pet name to a state car.\nHarry S. Truman (1945-1953) choose a Lincoln for his state car. The previous administration\u2019s presidential cars manufacturer was General Motors. Unfortunately, the story goes that General Motors refused to provide then presidential Harry Truman a car for his campaign. When he won, Truman awarded the state car contract to Lincoln instead of General Motors.\nThe Lincoln Cosmopolitan was the vehicle of choice for Truman\u2019s presidential car. Already a large luxury car with a convertible top, it was further modified to add more security features. The finished version of the Cosmopolitan state car measured a massive 20 feet long and 6.5 feet wide.\nDwight D. Eisenhower (1953-1961) continued using the Lincoln Cosmopolitan but ordered the convertible top fitted with a roof made of plexiglass.\nJohn F. Kennedy (1961-1963) accepted a Lincoln Continental as his state car. Kennedy\u2019s Lincoln Continental, nicknamed as X-100, has a removable roof and a hydraulic lift designed to raise the backseat, so the president will be more visible during parades. Unfortunately, this turned key to the successful assassination of President Kennedy.\nGerald Ford (1974-1977) also used the Lincoln Continental as his presidential state car. By this time, the Lincoln company has enjoyed a 33-year reign as the official state car manufacturer, the lasting effect of Truman\u2019s spiteful rejection of General Motors.\nRonald Reagan (1981- 1989) used a Cadillac Fleetwood as his presidential state car. It was modified as usual with bulletproof armor and glass. It was bigger than the standard Fleetwoods and larger wheels to support the extra weight. Bill Clinton (1993-2001) continued the tradition and used a 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood as his presidential state car.\nTurn-of-the-Century Presidential State Cars\nIn the year 2000, the Secret Service brought in more technology and firepower to the U.S. presidential car. Unfortunately, the Cadillac Fleetwood was not capable of supporting the extra armor, munitions and amenities added by the Secret Service. It caused the Cadillac to breakdown due to the heavy weight.\nGeneral Motors got the commission to design a new presidential car from the ground up. Taking design considerations from existing large SUV models like the Cadillac DeVille, Chevrolet Suburban and Cadillac Escalade.\nThe resulting vehicle has thick armored doors and an extra thick bulletproof glass to combat high powered sniper bullets. Since official specifications are confidential, the other safety features can\u2019t be verified. However, some believe it to have heavy duty run flat tires to support the massive 6,400 kg state car. Due to the car\u2019s massive stature, it got the nickname \u201cThe Beast\u201d.\nGeorge Bush (2001 \u2013 2009) always takes 2 of these massive \u201cBeasts\u201d when he travels. One as the main car and the other as backup. Being exact copies, this was also a tactic to conceal the president with one car acting as a decoy.\nBarack Obama (2009-2017) also used \u201cThe Beast\u201d as his state car. This vehicle has design and parts coming from different cars like the Chevrolet Kodiak and Escalade. Rumor has it that the White House has at least 12 Beast units and a special airplane carries 2 units to accompany the president on international travels.\nCurrent Presidential Car Model\nThe current U.S. President Donald Trump ordered a new set of Beasts with specifications from the Secret Service. Some unconfirmed features trickled out which, for all we know, could have been present on previous Beast models. Kevlar and steel line the oversized tires, which makes them almost bullet resistant. Car doors are 8 inches thick and have no keyholes. Only a few select Secret Service agents know how to open them. In case of a chemical attack, the car is sealed with its own oxygen supply.\nThe Secret Service went all in on the design and added a launcher for rocket-propelled grenades, shotguns, night vision cameras, tear gas cannon and smoke grenades. It also has a highly redundant communication equipment that can contact critical government units \u2014 like the National Defense. The amount of armor and weapons limited the running beast to a top speed of below 100 km/hr.\nAs technology and innovation evolve, so will the U.S. presidential car. The threats to peace and order have made it necessary for the Secret Service to constantly improve \u201cThe Beast\u201d. This car and all of the others discussed in this article played a crucial part in protecting the president of the most powerful country in the world.\nDo you want to treat your car like a state car? Why not schedule your precious ride to a Presidential Detail that will surely give it a showroom quality shine.\nPresidential Detailing \u2013 What a Full Car Detailing Should Include January 23, 2014",

While in the Navy he attended Great Lakes Naval Training School and went on to attend Nuclear Power School in Idaho Falls. The Navy then sent him to the west coast where he cruised the Pacific Ocean being sent to Guam, the Philippines, Japan and on to Italy in the Mediterranean Sea as well as the English Channel before returning to the US to be stationed in Norfolk, VA. Some of the ships he served on include the USS South Carolina, USS Shenandoah, USS Sylvania, USS Parks and finally the USS America. While in Norfolk, Gary became an instructor on the Mobile Technical Team and was then stationed in Rhode Island. After his discharge in 1986, Gary went to work at Lord and Taylor in Massachusetts and Connecticut until 2004 and went on to become maintenance manager at federal buildings in San Antonio, TX, Syracuse, NY, and Columbus, OH until his retirement. In 2018, Gary and Sharon relocated from South Vienna, OH to DeRuyter, NY. A graveside service for Gary with Military Honors will take place at 11:00 am on Saturday, September 8th at Greenboro Cemetery on County Road 17 and Old State Road in Redfield, NY. Arrangements have been entrusted to R.J. Fahy Funeral Home, 116 N. Broad St. Norwich, NY.\nGraveside Service Saturday, September 8, 2018\nIn Memory Of Gary L.

        "raw_content": "Home Support & Learning Support Knowledge Base Member Rotation Angle\nMember Rotation Angle\nFigure 01 - Local Member Axes x, y, and z\nFigure 02 - Member Rotation Angle \u03b2\nFigure 03 - Member in General Position\nFigure 04 - Member in Vertical Position with Member Rotation Angle of 0\u00b0 and 45\u00b0\nFigure 05 - Member in Vertical Position with Member Rotation Angle of \u00b190\u00b0 and 180\u00b0\n001449 8 June 2017 Technical Article Robert Vogl Modeling | Structure RFEM RSTAB\nIn spatial structures, a member position plays an important role in terms of determining internal forces. The orientation of member axes can be defined either by a global cross-section rotation angle or by a specific member rotation angle. These two angles are added in order to determine the position of the main axes of a member in a 3D model.\nThis article describes how RFEM and RSTAB set the members position automatically set and how it can be adjusted using member rotation angles, if required.\nLocal Member Axes\nThe member-related coordinate system with the axes x, y and z is defined as right-angled with right-hand screws. The local member axis x always represents the centroidal axis of the member. It connects the initial node to the end node while the positive direction of the axis x is oriented from the initial node i to the end node j of the member. In the case of symmetrical cross-sections, the local axes y and z represent the principal axes of the member (these axes are indicated as u and v in the case of asymmetrical cross-sections). The axis y is the 'major' axis of the cross-section.\nMember Rotation Angle \u03b2\nIf a member has a rotation about its longitudinal axis, this rotation can be defined by the angle \u03b2. The position and thus the local member coordinate system xyz is clearly described by specifying the initial node i and the end node j as well as the rotation angle \u03b2.\nThe program then defines the position of the local axes y and z automatically: The axis z is located in space in the way that the Z-part of the directional arrow related to the global coordinate system always points to the positive global direction Z. The axis y is then obtained according to the right-hand rule. From this position, the member can be rotated using the rotation angle \u03b2, which indicates the rotation of the local system x, y, z against the reference system x', y', z'. In the case of the default setting \u03b2 = 0\u00b0, the reference system is the local system at the same time. In the case of the positive angle \u03b2, the directions y and z rotate about the longitudinal member axis (local axis x) as in the case of a right-hand screw.\nIf the local system xyz is right-screwed rotated by 90\u00b0, the axis y is in the position of the axis z before the rotation.\nFigure 02 shows the left-screwed rotation. The angle \u03b2 should be entered as negative in this case.\nMember Orientation in Case of Non-Horizontal Member Position\nIf the member is in the horizontal position, the orientation and rotation is clear, as shown in Figure 02. However, if the member is located in space, the program orients the member according to the following rules.\nFor a member rotation angle \u03b2 = 0\u00b0, two cases are possible.\nCase 1: General position of the member, \u03b2 = 0\u00b0\nThe reference axis y' is parallel to the global XY plane. The reference axis z' is perpendicular to the axes x' and y' while its Z-component always points in the direction of the global axis Z. If the Z-axis is defined downwards in General Data, it points in the direction of the positive Z-component; if the Z-axis is defined upwards, it points in the direction of the negative Z-component. The directions of the axes follow the right-hand rule.\nCase 2: Vertical position of the member, \u03b2 = 0\u00b0\nThe reference axis y' points in the direction of the global Y-axis. The axis z is obtained by using the right-hand rule; if \u03b2 = 0\u00b0, it points in the direction of the global X-axis.\nFor a member rotation angle of \u00b190\u00b0 and 180\u00b0, the program applies the following assumptions for members in the vertical position:\nThe member can be rotated about the longitudinal axis of this member by using the rotation angle \u03b2. A positive angle corresponds to a rotation of the axis y in the direction of the axis z. It is important for the axis orientation, whether the member is defined from top to bottom or the opposite (see Figure 04 and Figure 05).\nMember Axis Modification due to Member Position\nIf the axis 'jumps round' in the case of a supporting continuous member, the cause is usually the automatic classification of the member position: The position of the continuous member is classified as 'vertical' and the position of the connected members as 'general'. The general member position applies if there are (minimally) different X and Y coordinates for the definition nodes of a member, so the member is slightly inclined.\nFigure 06 - Member Axis Modification\nVariable axes complicate the definition of local member loads and imperfections. They also influence symbols and signs of the internal forces.\nEspecially when importing a DXF model, it may happen that the X and Y coordinates of definition nodes are not identical to all decimal places. This can be corrected by manual adjustment. A better way is to compensate the deviations with the 'Regenerate model' program option, which also allows user-defined tolerances.\nFigure 07 - Dialog Box 'Regenerate Model' and Result\nIn a 3D model, the member orientation is important for the model stiffness as well as for assigning local loads. When entering a member, the local axis system is automatically defined on the basis of the definition nodes. It is then possible to adjust the axis orientation by using a member rotation angle. RFEM and RSTAB allow you to check the member position quickly and reliably in 3D rendering.\n[1] Manual RFEM (2013). Tiefenbach: Dlubal Software. Download.\n[2] Manual RSTAB (2013).

        "raw_content": "As a medical doctor/registered nurse practitioner team, we received conventional medical training at university hospitals while getting our degrees. Since that time, however, we have explored various alternative methods of healing; this is not to replace our education, but as a supplement and an additional tool in the medical woodshed.\nOne class of alternative remedies that are commonly used is Essential Oils. These substances are called \u201cessential\u201d because they capture the \u201cessence\u201d of the plant. Unlike cooking oils, such as olive or corn, these oils are less fixed and more volatile. That means that they are less viscous in nature, and tend to evaporate easily. This is unlike olive or other \u201cfixed\u201d oils, which don\u2019t evaporate even in high temperatures. As such, essential oils are popular in aromatherapy.\nAlthough you might not realize it, you\u2019ve been using essential oils all your life. You\u2019ve no doubt used them in soaps, furniture polishes, perfumes and ointments. Although it doesn\u2019t take a lot of, say, peppermint leaves to make a tea, it takes a boatload of leaves to make a significant amount of essential oil. One source states that it takes an acre of peppermint to produce just 12 pounds. The same source says that 12,000 rose blossoms are required to produce a tablespoon of rose oil! These concentrated versions commonly are sold in small, dark bottles. You might be surprised to learn that the Food and Drug Administration only requires 10% essential oil in the bottle to be considered \u201cPure Essential Oil\u201d.\nEssential oils are produced by plants to serve as either an attractant to pollinator insects (hence their strong fragrance) or as a repellant against invading organisms, from bacteria to animal predators. These substances usually contain multiple chemical compounds, making each plant\u2019s essential oil unique. Oils may be produced by leaves, bark, flowers, fruit or roots. Lemon oil comes from the peel, Lavender oil from flowers, and Cinnamon oil from bark. Some plants are sources of more than one essential oil, dependent on the part processed. Some plant material produces a great deal of oil; other produce very little. The strength or quality of the oil is dependent on multiple factors, including soil conditions, time of year, sub-species of plant, and even the time of day the plant is harvested.\nHow Are Essential Oils Made and Used?\nThe manufacture of essential oils, known as \u201cextraction\u201d, can be achieved by various methods:\nDistillation Method: Using a \u201cstill\u201d like old-time moonshiners, water is boiled through an amount of plant material to produce a steam that travels through cooled coils. This steam condenses into a \u201cmixture\u201d of oil and water (which doesn\u2019t really mix) from which the oil can be extracted.\nPressing: The oils of citrus fruit can be isolated by a technique which involves putting the peels through a \u201cpress\u201d. This works best only with the oiliest of plant materials, such as orange skins.\nMaceration: a fixed oil (sometimes called a \u201ccarrier\u201d oil) or lard may be used with the plant part and exposed to the sun over time, causing the fixed oil to become infused with the plant \u201cessence\u201d. Oftentimes, a heat source is used to move the process along. The plant material may be added several times during the process to manufacture a stronger oil. This is the method by which you obtain products such as \u201cgarlic-infused olive oil\u201d. A similar process using flowers is referred to as \u201cEnfleurage\u201d.\nSolvent Method: Alcohol and other solvents may be used on some plant parts, usually flowers, to release the essential oil in a multi-step process.\nAs each essential oil has different chemical compounds in it, it stands to reason that the medicinal benefits of each are also different. As such, an entire alternative medical discipline has developed to find the appropriate oil for the condition that needs treatment. The method of administration differs, as well. Common methods include:\n1) Inhalation Therapy: This method is also known as \u201caromatherapy\u201d. Add a few drops of the essential oil in a bowl of steaming water (distilled or sterilized), and inhale. This method is most effective when placing a towel over your head to catch the vapors. Many people will place essential oils in potpourri or use a \u201cdiffuser\u201d to spread the aroma throughout the room; this technique most probably dilutes any medicinal effects, however.\n2) Topical Application: The skin is an amazing absorbent surface, and using essential oils by direct application is a popular method of administration. The oil may be used as part of a massage, or directly placed on the skin to achieve a therapeutic effect on a rash or muscle. Before considering using an essential oil in this manner, always test for allergic reactions beforehand. Even though the chemical compounds are natural, that doesn\u2019t mean that you couldn\u2019t have an adverse reaction to them (case in point: poison ivy).\nA simple test involves placing a couple of drops on the inside of your forearm with a cotton applicator. Within a few hours, you\u2019ll notice a rash developing if you\u2019re allergic. Mixing some of the essential oil with a fixed or \u201ccarrier\u201d oil such as olive oil before application is a safer option for topical use. Another concern, mostly with topically-applied citrus oil, is \u201cphototoxicity, an exaggerated burn response to sun exposure.\nI have some reservations about whether applying an essential oil on the skin over a deep organ such as the pancreas will really have any specific effect on that organ. It is much more likely to work, however, on the skin or underlying muscle tissue.\n3) Ingestion: Direction ingestion is unwise for most essential oils, and should be used with caution. Some essential oils have detrimental effects on chronic medical conditions such as hypertension and epilepsy, and could even increase the chance of miscarriage in pregnant women. Any internal use of an essential oil should be a very small amount in at least a tablespoon of a fixed oil such as olive oil. Professional guidance is imperative when considering this method. You can always consider a tea made with the herb as an alternative, although the effect may not be as strong.\nAlthough essential oils have been used as medical treatment for a very long time, it\u2019s difficult to provide definitive evidence of their effectiveness for several reasons. Essential oils are difficult to standardize, due to variance in the quality of the product based on soil conditions, time of year, and other factors that we mentioned above. An essential Eucalyptus oil may be obtained from Eucalyptus Globulus or Eucalyptus Radiata, for example, and have differing properties as a result. These factors combine to make scientific study problematic.\nIn most university experiments, a major effort is made to be certain that the substance tested caused the results obtained. As essential oils have a number of different chemicals and are often marketed as blends, which ingredient was the cause of the effect? If the oil is applied with massage, was the effect related to the oil itself or the therapeutic benefit of the physical therapy?\nMost studies on essential oils have been conducted by the cosmetics and food industries; some have been conducted by individuals or small companies. Standard studies for medicinal benefit are usually performed by the pharmaceutical industry, but they generally have little interest in herbal products. This is because they have few options in patenting these products. Therefore, serious funding is hard to find because of the limited profit potential.\nDespite this, essential oils have various reported beneficial effects, mainly by their historical use on many thousands of patients by alternative healers. Although there are many essential oils, several are considered mainstays of any herbal medicine cabinet. Here are just some:\nLavender Oil: An analgesic (pain reliever), antiseptic (antimicrobial substance applied to living tissue/skin to reduce the possibility of infection) and immune stimulant. It is thought to be good for skin care and to promote healing, especially in burns, bruises, scrapes, acne, rashes and bug bites. Lavender has a calming effect, and is used for insomnia, stress and depression. It is also used as a decongestant through steam inhalation (1 drop per cup of steaming water). Lavender is also available as a tea for internal use.\nEucalyptus- An antiseptic, antiviral, and decongestant (also an excellent insect repellent), Eucalyptus oil has a \u201ccooling\u201d effect on skin. It also aids with respiratory issues and is thought to boost the immune system. Consider its use for flus, colds, sore throats, coughs, sinusitis, bronchitis, and hay fever. When exposure is expected, it has been reported to have a preventative effect. Eucalyptus may be used in massages, steam inhalation, and as a bath additive. Although eucalyptus oil has been used in cough medicine, it is likely greatly diluted and should not be otherwise ingested in pure form.\nMelaleuca (Tea Tree) Oil: Diluted in a carrier oil such as coconut, Tea Tree oil may be good for athlete\u2019s foot, acne, skin wounds, and even insect bites. In the garden, Tea Tree oil is a reasonable organic method of pest control. In inhalation therapy, it is reported to help relieve respiratory congestion. Studies have been performed which find it effective both Staphylococcus and fungal infections. Some even recommend a few drops in a pint of water for use as a vaginal douche to treat yeast. Tea Tree oil may be toxic if used in high concentrations or around sensitive areas like the eyes.\nPeppermint Oil: This oil is said to have various therapeutic effects: antiseptic, antibacterial, decongestant, and anti-emetic (stops vomiting). Peppermint oil is applied directly to the abdomen when used for digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome, heartburn, and abdominal cramping. Some herbalists prescribe Peppermint for headache; massage a drop or two to the temples as needed. For sudden abdominal conditions, achy muscles or painful joints, massage the diluted oil externally onto the affected area\nLemon Oil: Used for many years as a surface disinfectant, it is an ingredient in furniture cleaners. Many seem to think that this disinfecting action makes it good for sterilizing water, but there is no evidence that it is as effective as any of the standard methods of doing so, such as boiling. Don\u2019t apply on the skin if you will be exposed to the sun that day.\nClove Oil: Although thought to have multiple uses as an anti-fungal, antiseptic, antiviral, analgesic, and sedative, Clove oil particularly shines as an anesthetic and antimicrobial. It is marketed as \u201cEugenol\u201d to dentists throughout the world as a natural pain killer and for toothaches. A toothpaste can be made by combining clove oil and baking soda; when mixed with zinc oxide powder, it makes an excellent temporary cement for lost fillings and loose crowns.\nThere are many more essential oils with possible medicinal benefits, and I\u2019ll discuss them in future articles. Do your own research and come to your own conclusions, but always consider every option when it comes to keeping your loved ones healthy in bad times as well as good times.\nAre you prepared to deal with medical issues in a disaster or collapse situation?

        "raw_content": "News: Elderly couple \u2018close to death\u2019 after 13 hours locked in keyless car\nNear disaster highlights importance of vehicle sales handovers\nAN ELDERLY couple are reported to have come \u201cclose to suffocation\u201d after believing they had become trapped in their new Mazda3 hatchback without the transponder fob.\nMollieanne and Brian Smith, from Alexandra, New Zealand, entered the car, which was parked in their garage, at 7pm on November 5 and unwittingly locked the doors from the inside, only to realise they had forgotten the transponder key fob. Believing the car would not open without the fob, they began to look for other ways to escape, unaware that a simple latch next to the door handle would have freed them.\nMr Smith, who described himself as a \u201cvery methodical\u201d man, tried everything from sounding the horn in an attempt to alert passers-by to attempting to smash a window with a car jack. It is believed the couple\u2019s cries for help went unheard because it was Guy Fawkes Night and nearby fireworks displays masked the cries for help.\nNeighbours eventually freed the couple at around 7.45am the following day. They reported that Mrs Smith was unconscious and her husband was struggling to breathe. Arriving at the scene, emergency services said that half an hour more in the vehicle could have proved fatal for the couple. Mrs Smith spent three days in hospital after the ordeal.\nMrs Smith said she decided to reveal details of the couple\u2019s ordeal in order to educate others on the risks of keyless cars, particularly the need for proper tutoring for older people on new technology\nMr Smith told The New Zealand Herald: \u201cOnce I found out how simple it was to unlock it I kicked myself that I did not find the way out \u2026 I had this mindset that I did not have the transponder [so I could not get out]. The car salesperson had made it seem the car would not work without the transponder.\u201d\nMany dealers in the UK follow rules from Motor Codes, a government-backed body for self-regulation of the automotive industry, which should help customers familiarise themselves with their new car at the point of sale.\n\u201cThe New Car Code, administered by Motor Codes, states that subscribing dealers will provide customers with a copy of the manufacturer\u2019s handbook at the point of sale,\u201d the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders told Driving. \u201cMotor Codes also advises consumers to ensure that the dealer provides a detailed handover of the new car, which should form part of the new car delivery process.\u201d\nMrs Smith said she decided to reveal details of the couple\u2019s ordeal in order to educate others on the risks of keyless cars, particularly the need for proper tutoring for older people on new technology.\nSimon Williams, spokesman for the RAC, told Driving: \u201cA serious case like this that could so easily have ended in tragedy should be a lesson to everyone to familiarise themselves fully with any new, hi-tech features of their vehicles.\n\u201cSpending some time studying the owner\u2019s manual and then trying out functions in a safe, stationary environment is good advice for anyone who drives a modern car that features a lot of technology that\u2019s new to them.\u201d\nHow to unlock a car from the inside\nPull the door handles as this may automatically unlock the door. In some cases handles may retract when doors are locked.\nCheck for a latch or switch next to the door handle. It will typically have a red side (locked) and a white side (unlocked).\nLook for a button on the door card next to the window that can be lifted up to unlock.\nFind a main switch, usually marked with a padlock or key symbol, near the electric window buttons, on the dashboard or by the gearlever.",

        "raw_content": "Home Inform St. Albans Addiction Treatment Center Celebrates One Year\nSt. Albans Addiction Treatment Center Celebrates One Year\nAn addiction treatment center in St. Albans, Vermont is celebrating one year of treating people with substance use disorders in Franklin County.\nThe Bay Area Addiction Resources Treatment (BAART) has programs located through the U.S. The St. Albans addiction treatment center opened on top of a bus station, making it accessible to anyone passing by.\nBAART programs, a branch of BayMark Health Services, provides opioid addiction treatment for its patients at all its facilities. This addiction treatment center in St. Albans is one of 26 under the BAART name.\nBAART\u2019s philosophy is to treat opioid use disorders as chronic disorders and give drug addiction treatment to patients. Individualized treatment is implemented by BAART to help patients.\nBAART also offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to patients.\nThe BAART Regional Director of Operations stated that the location was in a perfect spot in the city where patients previously had to look for drug abuse treatment facilities in other cities.\nBAART\u2019s facility is one of two drug addiction facilities in St. Albans, according to the 2018 National Directory of Drug and Alcohol Abuse Treatment Facilities.\nThere were 12 drug-related fatalities in Franklin County in 2017, according to the Vermont Department of Health. There were 130 drug-related deaths in Vermont last year.\nPreliminary data has indicated that there were five drug-related deaths in 2018 in Franklin County and 64 drug-related deaths in the state.\nThe director of operations also noted that there are no waiting lists for people needing drug rehab.\nBAART operates under the Vermont Blueprint for Health, which is a design that implements several different strategies for combating health problems in the state. One of those is the Hub and Spoke system, which is Vermont\u2019s system of MAT. BAART\u2019s substance abuse treatment center operates as a Spoke and delivers opioid addiction treatment for Vermonters in need.\nVermont\u2019s Hub and Spoke system consists of nine regional hubs that help patients with multifaceted issues related to substance abuse. The Spokes entails more than 75 doctors, nurses and therapists that provide opioid use disorder and behavioral health treatment to patients.\nHubs, which are opioid addiction treatment facilities, give extended services and communicate with Spokes.\nMAT is provided at Hubs, including buprenorphine or naltrexone. The MAT could also involve assessment, medication dispensing and therapy.\nSpokes are based out of office buildings and are located in facilities throughout Vermont. A majority of Spokes have integrated care for patients seeking help.\nSpokes are generally family care practices and include outpatient addiction treatment facilities. The physicians in Spokes are approved to prescribe medicine to help people struggling with opioid addiction. Some patients with a less complicated addiction-related issue could start at Spokes while others end up in Spokes after starting at Hubs first.\nStaffing at Spokes generally includes one therapist and one nurse for every 100 patients. The model allows an organized structure that helps Spokes focus on both addiction treatment and behavioral health.\nThe Hub and Spoke system was first suggested by Dr. John Brooklyn, and Vermont decided to implement the strategy. The state coordinated with the Department of Vermont Health Access, the Blueprint of Health and the Vermont Department of Health\u2019s Division of Alcohol and Drug Abuse programs.\nThe state pays for the Hub and Spoke system through Medicaid.\nAccording to the State of Vermont, access to addiction recovery services have improved since the Hub and Spoke model was placed. The Hub and Spoke model now helps 6,000 people with opioid use disorders.\nPrevious articleDrug and Alcohol Abuse Treatment Center in Mays Landing Expands\nNext articleFacebook Aims to Curb Substance Abuse with New Marketplace Updates\nAvailability, legality and safety misconceptions fueled a global opioid crisis\nFDA\u2019s Gottlieb Speaks at Opioid Abuse Summit",

To limit this distraction, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) issued voluntary guidelines to app developers. These guidelines could have a driver mode, similar to airplane mode that would modify or block apps and features known to divert attention when driving.\nApple, Samsung, and other device manufacturers are called to develop technology that recognizes a car in motion and also perceives when the driver is using it while driving. Limiting functionality while simplifying interfaces would be a start to curtailing this dangerous, and widespread habit of drivers, young and old.\nAnthony Foxx, secretary of the Transportation Department, said, \u201cYour smartphone becomes so many different things that it\u2019s not just a communication device. Distraction is still a problem. Too many people are dying and being injured on our roadways.\u201d\nFiled Under: Personal Injury, Safety Tagged With: dallas personal injury lawyer, distracted driving, Louisiana personal injury lawyer, New Mexico personal injury lawyer, texas personal injury lawyer, vehicle accidents\nCDC Warns of Dangers in Teen Driving in Night Hours\nIt\u2019s true that all drivers are more susceptible to fatal driving accidents in the night hours, but for inexperienced teen drivers, it is especially risky.\nRecently we blogged about studies showing the high risk of teens driving with passengers. Night driving is another area of concern for parents with new, young drivers. While it\u2019s true that 49 states and the District of Columbia have night driving restrictions in their Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) systems, in 23 states those hours are between midnight and 5 a.m. The report just released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows this does not cover some of the most dangerous hours. Here are a few of the findings of this latest study:\n\u2022 Most teen night driving is before midnight, meaning the night restrictions have little affect on the night accident rate.\n\u2022 31% of U.S. fatal accidents of drivers aged 16-17 during 2009-2014, crashed between 9:00 p.m. \u2013 5:59 a.m.\n\u2022 Of those accidents, 57% occurred before 12 a.m.!\nIn Texas, there is a GDL program in place. The requirements for a driver in Phase 2 of the program and between the ages of 16 and 18 include:\n\u2022 No more than one passenger in the vehicle under the age of 21 who is not a family member\n\u2022 No driving between midnight and 4:00 a.m. unless the operation of the vehicle is necessary for the fdriver to work, to attend or participate in a school-related activity, or due to a medical emergency.\nAfter six months with no infractions, however, these two restrictions are no longer in force. One rule that remains until 18 prohibits any wireless communication device, including hands-free, except for emergencies.\nWith motor vehicle crashes as the leading cause of death for teenagers in the United States, anything that can help curtail accidents is worth pursuing. In Texas, AAA provides a Parent-Teen Driving Agreement that holds both teen and parent to certain standards. Initialed and signed by both parties, it conveys the privilege and responsibility of all parties when they get behind the wheel. Even if you live elsewhere, you can use this agreement as a model for your family.\nBottom line, teen driving is a serious matter \u2013 not only for teens, but for the two-thirds of people who are killed by teen drivers when the driver survives. As adults, it is up to us to lead the way in modeling safe, acceptable, and legal driving habits to those teens watching us.\n\u2013 Night driving restriction starting hours varied by day of the week for the District of Columbia, Illinois, and Mississippi; weekend starting hours are presented.\n\u2013 Long Island does not allow teens with a New York provisional license (junior license) to drive unaccompanied, so there is no need for a night driving restriction.\nFiled Under: Personal Injury, Safety Tagged With: Fatal accidents, Personal injury attorney, Teen drivers, Texas, vehicle accidents",

        "raw_content": "Make No Small Plans\nSecretary Arne Duncan's Remarks at the Grantmakers for Education Conference in Chicago\nThank you, Terry, for that kind introduction. I've known Terry for years\u0097and the work of the Chicago Community Trust was absolutely invaluable to me during my time as CEO of the Chicago Public Schools. In many respects, Terry and the work of the Trust are leading examples of just the kind of education reform that the department is hoping to stimulate among non-profits and that I want to address today.\nI must say, I love the theme of this conference\u0097\"Make No Small Plans.\" That theme is very much in keeping with the President's conviction and our department's commitment to education reform.\nThere is no doubt that our nation's public schools and colleges face steep challenges. But we also have a unique opportunity to transform our educational system\u0097and an opportunity like this may never come along again in our lifetime.\nIt is not a time to make small plans. It is not a time to tinker. To quote the President's Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, one should \"never waste a good crisis.\"\nToday, 30 percent of our children, or about 1.2 million students a year fail to complete high school on time. Only two-thirds of those who do graduate from high school go on to any form of college. Far too many students who do matriculate fail to earn a college degree. And as you know, every one of these troubling indicators is far worse for low-income students, minority students, and English language learners.\nIn America, education is supposed to play a far different role. As Horace Mann said more than a century ago, education is the great equalizer in America. No matter what your income, race, religion, or zip code, every child is entitled to a quality education. Today, we are failing to fulfill that American creed.\nIt is no secret that now, more than ever, education holds the key to being able to compete in the global economy. In the information age, where our students will be competing with their peers in China, India, Canada, and Denmark for jobs, we really don't have much choice\u0097we have to educate our way to a better economy.\nBy 2020, President Obama wants the United States to regain the position it held not long ago as the nation with the highest proportion of college graduates in the world. And he wants every American to have a least one year of college, trade, or technical training.\nIn practical terms, the president's goals require not just improved student outcomes but a dramatic boost in educational productivity. At a time where critical state funds for education have been cut, public schools, colleges, and research universities are being asked to get millions of additional students through high school and college, with millions of adults returning to school as well.\nNow, the president's goals are ambitious. But the hard truth is that we cannot build a well-functioning cradle-to-career pipeline of college-ready students by continuing to do what we are doing now\u0097if we only do it just a little bit better.\nTo meet the President's goals, we need transformational change. The islands of excellence that now exist in school districts have to become the norm. The promising solutions that you have all helped to create need to be brought to scale. And our existing market-based and political barriers to far-reaching reform have to recede.\nIn a word, America's schools need innovation. Educational innovation should not be confused with just generating more great ideas or unique inventions. Instead we need new solutions that improve outcomes\u0097and that can, and will, be used to serve hundreds of thousands of teachers and millions of students.\nSmart innovation and entrepreneurship are not the only way to dramatically accelerate achievement and attainment. But without them, we will surely fall short of our goals\u0097and do a disservice to our children. As the president said in his inaugural address, \"the question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works.\"\nTraditionally, the K-12 system has not been considered to be a bastion of innovation and entrepreneurship. We have all seen the presentations showing that the early 20th century classroom looks eerily similar to many classrooms today.\nThe analogy may be exaggerated. But it is true that for much of the last century we have not cultivated a culture of innovation\u0097or built the district-level systems needed to sustain a cycle of continuous improvement.\nStarting a century ago, big, comprehensive high schools began to replace the simple schoolhouses of earlier eras. Schools adopted the factory model that was popular to produce graduates that mirrored the needs of the workforce at that time. A privileged few went to college, but most did not.\nTeachers and students were then thought of as interchangeable widgets. Teachers were rewarded based on credentials and experience, not on their performance in the classroom. Instruction was not tailored to the individual needs of students but to providing education for the masses and new immigrants.\nIt is easy to forget today, but up through our parent's generation, public schools often seemed like immortal institutions of brick and mortar. There were no charter schools, turnaround schools, or virtual schools.\nComprehensive high schools were thought of as eternal edifices that defined neighborhoods for decades\u0097and often educated both parents and their children. The standards and accountability movement didn't yet exist. Schools were judged more by inputs than by outcomes.\nNow to be sure, the lack of innovation in educational options for students didn't preclude schools from experimenting with a variety of reforms. Schools and districts tried a slew of curricular reforms over the years but most of them had little impact or staying power.\nIn fact, part of the problem with K-12 innovation has been that it often was faddish, lurching from one pedagogical favorite to the next\u0097without ever really rigorously assessing what works and what doesn't.\nIn the last two decades, those immortal institutions of the past have become far more open to innovation and entrepreneurship.\nToday, change and entrepreneurship abound in the K-12 system, but it is still constrained by gaps in our knowledge of effective practices.\nOnline courses and online supplementation of course material are catching on fast. But we have made only limited investments in understanding which online instruction is most effective.\nSmaller, themed schools have sprung up throughout districts. But we have yet to distinguish between approaches that really boost achievement and those that do not.\nPersonalized accommodations for children with disabilities are universal\u0097in a system that once virtually ignored learning and behavioral disabilities. And yet we are just now starting to advance the practices with the greatest evidence of serving these students well.\nWe are on the cusp of a new era of innovation and entrepreneurship in education that was almost unimaginable a decade ago. I am convinced that every problem in education has been solved before, somewhere\u0097and often with philanthropic support.\nWhat we need to do now, with the help of the philanthropic and non-profit sector, is systematically identify interventions that work, evaluate them, and invest in taking them to scale. We need to move beyond the separate silos of education reform that have prevented districts, practitioners, and non-profits from sharing and replicating solutions in the past.\nNow the responsibility for speeding that transformation lies not just with non-profits and districts but at the doors of the U.S. Department of Education.\nI know what some of you are thinking. I was the CEO of the Chicago Public Schools for seven years. And I would be the first to admit that I did not always welcome phone calls from the U.S. Department of Education.\nThat was because the department has historically been an agency that monitored compliance with federal regulations. Too often our department has focused on bureaucratic compliance and audits, not on accelerating student achievement.\nI want to fundamentally change that historical relationship; I want our department to become an engine of innovation, not a compliance machine. I want the department to provide powerful incentives to states, districts, and non-profits to innovate\u0097but at the same time leave most of the creative thinking and entrepreneurship for achieving our common goals in local hands. The best ideas will always come from local educators, not from Washington.\nI said earlier that we are at a unique moment in the history of education reform. We have what I call \"the Perfect Storm for Reform.\" And that starts with, for the first time, truly having the resources to spur innovation.\nAs many of you know, the department's new $4.35 billion dollar Race to the Top fund dwarfs the combined sum of discretionary reform funding available to all of my predecessors as education secretary.\nIn addition, we have $650 million dollars in the Recovery Act to fund the Investing in Innovation program\u0097which we are calling i3.\nThe department will release the Notice of Proposed Priorities for the i3 fund tomorrow and publish it in the Federal Register later this week. There will be a comment period, followed by an application and a single round of awards. We plan to make i3 awards next summer, with all funds obligated by September 30, 2010.\nWe think i3 will help build a framework to support innovation for years to come. Our aim is not to fund new programs for the sake of newness or to promote feel-good interventions. Instead, we are looking to create robust incentives to expand what works, invest in promising practices, and smartly innovate.\nTo start with, we're looking for programs that will be outcome-driven, not input-driven. We're looking for ways to boost student achievement, matriculation, and graduation rates\u0097and we expect successful applicants will be able to demonstrate real success in closing achievement gaps, moving students toward proficiency, increasing graduation rates, and retaining high-quality teachers and principals.\nIn addition, we'll be looking for programs that can successfully be taken to scale and aren't just boutique reforms. i3 applicants will be expected to conduct an independent program evaluation and share broadly the results of those evaluations.\nAnd finally we're seeking to fund sustainable innovation, not one-time flash in the pans.\nRecognizing the fact that these are challenging times, we still expect that grant recipients will be able to line up at least 20 percent matching funding from the private sector to ensure programs have a broad base of support and are sustainable beyond this federal grant.\nUnlike the Race to the Top program, which targets states and districts, i3 grants will be awarded to districts and non-profits who work in partnerships with LEAs or consortiums of schools.\nOur basic operating premise in i3 is that grants for proven programs should be larger than those for promising but largely untested programs. Grants will fall into three categories:\nFirst, Development grants of up to about $5 million dollars for promising ideas that should be tried.\nSecond, Validation grants of up to roughly $30 million for programs that need to build a research base or organizational capacity to succeed at a larger scale.\nAnd finally, Scale-Up grants that will go as high as $50 million for programs with strong evidence that are ready to grow and expand.\nWe will be looking\u0097though not exclusively\u0097for proposals that advance the four reforms central to the other Recovery Act programs. Applicants will be expected to detail innovations that will:\nFirst, enable educators, families, and other stakeholders to improve the use of data to facilitate tracking of student progress and improve classroom instruction.\nSecond, complement the implementation of college and career-ready standards and high-quality assessments.\nThird, support effective teachers and school leaders.\nAnd finally, support practices or programs that turn around chronically low-performing schools.\nAlready, we are seeing progress that would have been unthinkable a year ago. We are thrilled that 48 states and three territories are voluntarily working together to establish rigorous college-ready standards in language arts and math.\nFor education entrepreneurs, the common standards movement marks a leap forward because it opens up opportunities to innovate that were effectively closed off in the past. It is almost impossible to implement imaginative curriculum and assessments at scale when you have 50 different goalposts to march toward, all at once.\nAt the same time, many districts are beginning to use data everyday to drive instruction and supplement teacher evaluation.\nIt is true that we still have a great need for better models, to think differently about how to recruit, train, and support teachers\u0097and to figure out what it will take to get talented teachers and principals to the schools where they are needed most. That is hugely important to me.\nIt has been very difficult to design tools and resources to truly support teachers and school leaders, without being able to assess which teachers have the greatest impact on student learning. That's a bit like trying to treat a patient without completing a physical.\nFinally, we have roughly 5,000 schools in the country that have been chronically underperforming for years, and unfortunately, sometimes for decades. They include some 2,000 high schools that produce about half of the dropouts in the country, and 75 percent of our dropouts among African-American and Latino students. That is absolutely unacceptable.\nWe need to radically revise the current incremental approach to these dropout factories.\nTo close the achievement gap, we need to also close the opportunity gap. That will require new approaches to an assortment of longstanding challenges: Accelerating adolescents who are years behind; helping ELL students learn the language and the content; and assisting students with disabilities complete college-ready work.\nSo, in addition to supporting innovation in the four core reforms embedded in the Recovery Act, i3 will also bolster other aspects of the President's agenda to improve early learning and college readiness and better serve students with disabilities, those with limited English proficiency, and students in rural districts.\nWe will be encouraging districts and non-profits to expand and make better use of, both the school day and school year, and will support promising interventions with at-risk students.\nInnovative college readiness programs, which prepare students to enter college without the need for remediation, are priorities too. Everyone knows that we need more intensive and more cost-effective college readiness and access programs. One guidance counselor for every 400 students is not going to get the job done.\nI want to add that I am a huge fan of quality early childhood and afterschool programs. My sister, brother, and I grew up as a part of my mother's after-school tutoring program, located in the North Kenwood/Oakland neighborhood here in Chicago. Through that formative experience, I learned firsthand what so many of you know already\u0097that a powerful connection with a caring adult literally can transform the lives of students. Opportunities, supports, and high expectations can erase the achievement gap.\nI'm pleased to report that last month the House of Representatives passed a bill that would provide $8 billion to the Early Learning Challenge Fund during the next eight years. If approved by the Senate, this new program would channel a billion dollars a year to support early learning and care programs.\nBut again, we are not just looking to throw money at a problem or to replicate the status quo. The Early Learning Challenge Fund is a competitive grant program. And to qualify for grants, states will need to demonstrate that they are improving school readiness for disadvantaged children, implementing comprehensive standards-based reform of early learning, and boosting quality and performance of early childhood and preschool programs.\nI recognize that innovation doesn't come easily. If it did, I wouldn't be here today asking you to help create a culture of breakthrough innovation that spans the educational pipeline from the cradle to college and careers. Successful innovations are often disruptive. We not only understand that, we welcome it.\nWe know that online content and courses often meet with skepticism and resistance\u0097despite the fact that they make it possible for isolated students and hard-to-staff schools to have access to Advanced Placement courses, foreign languages, and networks of mentors. Here in Chicago we had to battle to establish a virtual charter school.\nNow there is a tendency to think that innovation is driven only by technology. I don't doubt for a moment that technology is going to play a critical role in educational innovation and student learning in the future.\nYet as important as technology\u0097and better use of technology\u0097will be, new strategies, new tools, and new products are also important to educational innovation.\nThink of the history of the Harlem Children's Zone, which Geoff Canada spoke of yesterday with such eloquence. The Harlem Children's Zone is an extraordinary program. President Obama was so impressed by the program that he has made it the cornerstone of the administration's Promise Neighborhoods proposal.\nNonprofits and community-based organizations will be the applicants for Promise Neighborhood grants. We expect to fund one-year planning grants for developing Promise Neighborhood applications next year, and will begin funding implementation grants in the last quarter of 2010.\nBut before I get ahead of myself I'd ask you to step back and think about why the Harlem Children's Zone has been such a success. The Harlem Children's Zone was not the first program to push for place-based policies\u0097enterprise zones have been around for decades. The Harlem Children's Zone was not the first program to bring together a host of social services\u0097states started co-locating social services back in the 1970s. And the Harlem Children's Zone was not the first program to recognize the importance of quality early learning experiences.\nDon't forget that when Geoff Canada started the Harlem Children's Zone, it bore little resemblance to the Harlem Children's Zone we know today. The organization began in 1970 as Rheedlen, New York City's first truancy-prevention program. After the crack epidemic tore through Harlem in the late 1980s, the agency started offering after-hours community services at a public school. In the late 1990s, the Harlem Children's Zone ran a pilot project to bring a range of support services\u0097to a single block.\nIn 1997, HCZ finally began a network of wraparound programs for a 24-block area. But even then, Geoff Canada was learning and expanding as he went. In 2000, he added the Baby College workshops; in 2001, the Harlem Gems pre-school program was added. Unhappy with the schools that students attended, Geoff Canada opened Promise Academy, a top-flight charter school in 2004.\nAs you think about this history I would ask you, what is it that made the Harlem Children's Zone so different from other programs? The answer, I think, is two things. First, the Harlem Children's Zone combined existing strategies and programs in a novel way to create an interlinked pipeline of support programs for children and families that extended from infancy to adulthood.\nSecond, the Harlem Children's Zone was relentless about measuring results and building a rigorous research base to document the impact of its programs. HCZ defined success in terms of achieving specific results for children and families\u0097and they used data to manage the pursuit of those outcomes. When Geoff Canada saw that even the best wraparound services were not sufficient to close the achievement gap, he created an outstanding no-excuses school of his own that did eliminate the gap.\nIn a way, the Harlem Children's Zone is to community schools what FedEx is to the U.S. Postal Service. Fed Ex uses all of the same basic technologies that the post office does\u0097trucks, planes, and tracking software.\nYet FedEx combined those technologies with a new strategy to fill an unmet need\u0097overnight mail service. Now every delivery company has overnight service. And one day soon, I hope that every student in a high-poverty neighborhood will have access to effective schools and strong systems of support.\nI tell the story of the Harlem Children's Zone because I want to remind everyone that breakthrough innovations sometimes come in unanticipated packages\u0097and they don't come from the federal government.\nWithin the very broad parameters of the i3 program, we want to provide powerful incentives to districts and non-profits to develop a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.\nBut we are looking to you\u0097philanthropists and non-profits\u0097to help build the next generation of education reform.\nThere are so many areas where non-profits and philanthropists are vitally needed to propel reform and leverage government dollars. But doing so will require non-profits to move beyond their customary silos and business-as-usual funding cycles as well.\nMy challenge to you today is to move outside your comfort zone, to become more nimble and entrepreneurial. Let me cite a few examples. We are expecting thousands of applicants for the i3 fund. Successful applicants will need to arrange a 20 percent match of funds, which will tap the resources of the private sector. But we know that ultimately, the department will not be able to fund many promising applications.\nI want to encourage private funders to form a novel pooled fund to compliment the i3 awards by providing support for promising, high-risk innovations not funded through the federal program.\nGrantmakers have similar opportunities to collaborate in the development of college and career-ready standards. There is a huge unmet need for cross-state collaborations on curriculum, learning tools, technology innovation, and teacher preparation.\nFoundations can similarly play a critical role in enabling states and districts to make the best use of new federal funds from the Recovery Act. Help your states put together a great application for the Race to the Top competition\u0097or help your district with the complex planning process for school turnarounds.\nFinally, grantmakers play an essential role in supporting rigorous evaluations of education reform. Compelling research studies help make promising innovations a reality at scale.\nWith your help, your courage, your vision, and your commitment, we can transform not just our department but many districts and the non-profit sector from compliance monitors to engines of innovation.\nThis is a historic, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity\u0097and I have never been more hopeful about the difference we can make in the lives of our children.",

        "title": "UK to pull battery recycling rates up to EU standards",
        "raw_content": "UK to pull battery recycling rates up to EU standards\nBritain will attempt to turn around a poor record on recycling used batteries, with the country's biggest household battery recycling trial to take off in March.\nOnly 2% of UK batteries are recycled\nOver 350,000 households across high-rise, rural and urban areas of Britain will be able to include used batteries in their recycling boxes, with information and special containers provided.\n\"We know that the average household uses about 21 batteries a year and that around 600 million UK household batteries are sent to landfill every year. By making battery recycling simple and easy we hope to encourage people to recycle all their old household batteries rather than throwing them away,\" said Chris Davey of the Waste Resources Action Programme, which will be running the trial.\nCurrently, only between 0.5% and 2% of the UK's waste batteries are being recycled. The bulk is sent to landfill, where heavy metals such as cadmium and mercury can leak from batteries, polluting the soil and water. Cadmium, for example, bio-accumulates in fish and causes harm to humans and wildlife.\nBritain's record for battery recycling lags behind the rest of Europe, where rates range from 14% in Belgium to 59% in Spain. But the UK will be forced to improve, with the forthcoming EU Battery Directive expected to require of 25% of used batteries to be recycled by 2012.\nThe new trial, supported by funding from Defra and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, is part of a wider drive to meet the EU Battery Directive.\n\"What we will do is to monitor the amount we're getting back from the different schemes to assess how we can improve the collection rates and by so doing, work out the most cost effective route for the UK to meet its targets,\" WRAP's Chris Davey told edie.\nThe main reason why most UK batteries end up on rubbish dumps is that Britain only has one plant capable of recycling household batteries of the most common type, Mr Davey said. This is the G&P Batteries plant in West Bromwich, which opened in March 2005. All other types of battery are sent to Europe for recycling, raising costs.\n\"The cost of sorting and recycling household (and similar) batteries into the different chemistries and then sending the sorted batteries to recycling plants across Europe is quite high and this is currently seen as one of the main barriers to increased recycling.\"\n\"There is currently little incentive on 'producers' who place batteries on the UK market to fund improvements until the targets in the forthcoming EU Batteries Directive are agreed and enshrined in law in the UK,\" Mr Davey said.\nBy Goska Romanowicz",

        "raw_content": "Hydrogen dustcarts and light-up trees: The best green innovations of the week\n1 June 2018, source edie newsroom\nedie rounds up six of the best innovations for this week\nWith the European Commission presenting its long-awaited marine-litter-busting proposal on banning single-use plastics on Monday (28 May), sustainability has once again been pushed to the forefront of media attention.\nWith this in mind, this week\u2019s round-up covers a variety of ideas, concepts, products and systems that could help nations and businesses accelerate sustainability commitments.\nTurning trees into street lights\nCities across the globe have looked at ways to reduce the carbon footprint of their streetlight network through smart solutions this year, with The City of London Corporation confirming in February that \u201cstate-of-the-art\u201d technology will coat urban spaces in various lighting types and colours at different times of the night.\nBut Copenhagen-based startup Allumen is studying a way to go one step further than LED lighting and turn trees into natural lamps. Researchers at its labs are trying to isolate the genes that make bioluminescent microalgae glow, so they can tweak them and add them to trees, genetically engineering the plants to emit light. This could, in theory, eliminate the need for electricity and cut the carbon emissions usually related to building street lamps.\nScientists believe the relevant genes can be located fairly quickly but could face challenges with getting the gene to perform in a tree \u2013 or with ensuring the plants shine brightly enough to replace LEDs. However, it cannot be denied that the prospect of street lights which actually absorb CO2 rather than contributing to emissions is an attractive one.\nSelf-healing cables\nFluid-filled cables were deployed across 8,000km of the UK\u2019s electricity network in the 1960s and 70s in a move to ensure electric cables were better insulated and had fewer voids\u2013 but over time, they have started to leak and impact the surrounding environment.\nNorthern Powergrid, alongside the Energy Innovation Centre and system developer Gnosys, has this week announced it has been successful in creating a self-healing alternative to tackle the leaking problems. The new liquid, called self-healing fluid, contains a mixture of tung oil and metal soaps which cause it to react and form a strong cohesive mass when it is exposed to air. This will seal the leaks in a similar way to blood concealing into a scab on a wound.\nThe electricity network will start incorporating the new fluid in its network of 930km of cables before the end of 2018 and anticipates the switch will save the firm up to \u00a320m over the next five years. This summer, up to 20,000 litres of the self-healing fluid will be deployed throughout its cable network.\nHeavy on the hydrogen\nAs carmakers push to electrify their models and businesses strive to cut fleet emissions, the EV revolution has just begun within the heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) sector, with Volvo last month unveiling its first electric truck designed for heavy-duty roles.\nThis week saw UK waste management firm Grundon launch a low-emission hydrogen and diesel dual-fuel waste collection vehicle, which it claims is the first to be used in Britain\u2019s commercial waste industry. The DAF HGV was retrofitted with a 10kg hydrogen unit in a move which cost \u00a3177,000 and was described by Grundon group logistics manager John Stephens as \u201ca significant investment\u201d, but one the firm has been keen to make.\nThe truck is fully operational and is collecting waste from homes in London as part of a trial of the dual-fuel technology. If the trial produces adequate carbon reductions, Grundon will look to invest further and retrofit more of its fleet.\nSelf-driving cars continue to be a hot topic after the Government launched the first phase of a \u00a3100m investment in the development of driverless vehicles earlier this year, but researchers are now turning to boats in a bid to cut congestion and pollution on city canals.\nScientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have this week unveiled 3D-printed autonomous boats which are fitted with environmental sensors to monitor water pollution and pH levels.\nResearchers hope the small vessels, which are also equipped with microcontrollers and GPS modules, can be scaled up and used to transport goods and passengers in cities such as Amsterdam, Bangkok and Venice. They have been tested along pre-planned paths in a swimming pool and in the Charles River in Massachusetts, with the inventors now attempting to adapt the model to account for wave disturbances and stronger currents before scaling it up.\nCoffee cup shake-up\nIn the current market, takeaway paper coffee cups can only be recycled in select infrastructure. They are commonly sealed with a plastic lining to make them waterproof and, although plastic and paper are recyclable, the lining cannot be handled by most recycling facilities.\nAs public awareness around single-use plastics and disposable cups grows, packaging engineering firm Smart Planet Technologies has created a new coating to replace the plastic inside your venti triple-shot latte. Cups lined with the resin-based substance, called EarthCoating, can be widely recycled within existing infrastructure, alongside uncoated paper.\nSmart Planet Technologies estimates that incorporating the EarthCoating cup results in a cup that contains 43% less plastic than one with standard polyethylene liners, and claims that cups with the substance built in can be recycled up to seven times. The firm has supplied more than seven million of the cups to European clients since launching them last October, and is now looking to expand into the US market.\nNo porky pies\nWith the alternative protein sector set to be worth $5.2bn by 2020, several companies are investing in creating non-meat alternatives to popular dishes. For example, Impossible Foods unveiled a meat-free burger which cost $80m to produce, that uses 95% less land and around 75% less water than traditional burgers.\nPlant-based food tech startup Beyond Meat has followed suit and turned to breakfast, launching a breakfast sausage patty which is made from pea, mung bean, rice and sunflower protein and designed to look and taste the same as pork. The firm hopes that by mimicking the taste and texture of meat, it can encourage the switch to alternative protein sources and help to slash the estimated 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions currently accounted for by meat and fish supply chains.\nThe patty is currently available to US-based restaurants only, but the Californian firm is planning to launch its product range in Europe, Canada, Australia, Mexico, Chile, Israel, Korea, Taiwan and South Africa this year after finding success in Hong Kong and Germany as well as at home.\ngreen innovation | technology",

        "raw_content": "Committee Probing Campaign Finances Subpoenas NEA\nA high-profile Senate committee investigating alleged campaign-finance abuses has subpoenaed records from the National Education Association and a raft of other nonprofit organizations.\nThe Governmental Affairs Committee, chaired by Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., is looking into possible illegal campaign expenditures by nonprofit organizations, according to a committee source who declined to be named, and the panel will hold a hearing on the issue.\nThe hearing will explore whether a group of nonprofit organizations, the Teamsters union, and the AFL-cio--an umbrella organization comprising many unions, including the American Federation of Teachers--illegally coordinated their expenditures for federal campaigns, the source said.\nThe hearing has not yet been scheduled, but will take place by the end of the year, the source added.\nThe 2.2 million-member NEA, the nation's largest teachers' union, was subpoenaed after news reports indicated that the group may have joined with other organizations to coordinate spending and campaign activities in partisan campaigns, which violates federal campaign laws, according to the committee source.\nEA officials denied any illegal activities and said they would cooperate with the committee's requests.\n\"The committee is on a fishing expedition,\" said Robert Chanin, the general counsel for the NEA. \"There is nothing that they have that suggests that NEA or any of the other organizations have engaged in illegal activities.\"\nUnder federal election law, the NEA is considered a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization. Legally, it is allowed only to make campaign donations independently.\nThe NEA's political action committee gave about $2.3 million in contributions to congressional candidates during the 1995-96 campaign season, and 99 percent of those donations went to Democratic candidates, according to federal election records.\nThe union also backed President Clinton's re-election effort. (\"Teachers' Unions Flex Political Muscles as Election Nears,\" Oct. 16, 1996.)\nMr. Chanin said that the committee had asked for a \"immensely broad\" array of campaign-related documents.\nThe process of collecting the material will be a burden, the union said.\n\"It's going to require us to do a lot of legwork and investigating,\" said Richard Wilcof, a staff lawyer for the NEA.\nThe committee had issued a total of 26 subpoenas in connection with the hearing as of late August.\nDemocrats on the committee sent subpoenas to 14 nonprofits with GOP and conservative ties, including the Heritage Foundation, the Christian Coalition, and the National Right to Life Committee. Committee Republicans subpoenaed groups traditionally linked with liberal causes or Democratic politics, including the Sierra Club, Americans United for Separation of Church and State, and the Democratic Leadership Council.\nSen. Thompson's committee began hearings this summer focused primarily on allegations of illegal foreign contributions to the 1996 Democratic campaign. It is also looking at alleged Republican fund-raising violations.\nSee the National Education Association in our Organizations listing.",

        "title": "Schools Not Liable Unless 'Deliberately Indifferent' - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Schools Not Liable Unless 'Deliberately Indifferent'\nFollowing are excerpts from the U.S. Supreme Court's majority and dissenting opinions in Gebser v. Lago Vista Independent School District.\nJustice Sandra Day O'Connor delivered the opinion of the court:\n\"It's amazing in a nonprofit environment how money still talks,\" said James W. Knapp, the finance director for the 45,000-student district.\nThe question in this case is when a school district may be held liable in damages in an implied right of action under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 for the sexual harassment of a student by one of the district's teachers. We conclude that damages may not be recovered in those circumstances unless an official of the school district who at a minimum has authority to institute corrective measures on the district's behalf has actual notice of, and is deliberately indifferent to, the teacher's misconduct. ...\nTitle IX provides in pertinent part that, \"[n]o person ... shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.'' The express statutory means of enforcement is administrative: The statute directs federal agencies who distribute education funding to establish requirements to effectuate the nondiscrimination mandate, and permits the agencies to enforce those requirements through \"any ... means authorized by law,'' including ultimately the termination of federal funding.\nFranklin v. Gwinnett County Public Schools (1992) ... establishes that a school district can be held liable in damages in cases involving a teacher's sexual harassment of a student; the decision, however, does not purport to define the contours of that liability. We face that issue squarely in this case. Petitioners, joined by the United States as amicus curiae, would invoke standards used by the Courts of Appeals in Title VII cases involving a supervisor's sexual harassment of an employee in the workplace. ...\nPetitioners and the United States submit that, in light of Franklin's comparison of teacher-student harassment with supervisor-employee harassment, agency principles should likewise apply in Title IX actions.\nSpecifically, they advance two possible standards under which Lago Vista would be liable for [teacher Frank] Waldrop's conduct. First, relying on a 1997 \"Policy Guidance'' issued by the [U.S.] Department of Education, they would hold a school district liable in damages under Title IX where a teacher is \"aided in carrying out the sexual harassment of students by his or her position of authority with the institution,'' irrespective of whether school district officials had any knowledge of the harassment and irrespective of their response upon becoming aware.\nThat rule is an expression of respondeat superior liability, i.e., vicarious or imputed liability, under which recovery in damages against a school district would generally follow whenever a teacher's authority over a student facilitates the harassment. Second, petitioners and the United States submit that a school district should at a minimum be liable for damages based on a theory of constructive notice, i.e., where the district knew or \"should have known'' about harassment but failed to uncover and eliminate it. Both standards would allow a damages recovery in a broader range of situations than the rule adopted by the Court of Appeals, which hinges on actual knowledge by a school official with authority to end the harassment. ...\n[W]e conclude that it would frustrate the purposes of Title IX to permit a damages recovery against a school district for a teacher's sexual harassment of a student based on principles of respondeat superior or constructive notice, i.e., without actual notice to a school district official.\nAs a general matter, it does not appear that Congress contemplated unlimited recovery in damages against a funding recipient where the recipient is unaware of discrimination in its programs. ...\nTitle IX's express means of enforcement--by administrative agencies--operates on an assumption of actual notice to officials of the funding recipient. ...\nIt would be unsound, we think, for a statute's express system of enforcement to require notice to the recipient and an opportunity to come into voluntary compliance while a judicially implied system of enforcement permits substantial liability without regard to the recipient's knowledge or its corrective actions upon receiving notice.\nMoreover, an award of damages in a particular case might well exceed a recipient's level of federal funding. (Lago Vista's federal funding for 1992-1993 was roughly $120,000). Where a statute's express enforcement scheme hinges its most severe sanction on notice and unsuccessful efforts to obtain compliance, we cannot attribute to Congress the intention to have implied an enforcement scheme that allows imposition of greater liability without comparable conditions.\nBecause the express remedial scheme under Title IX is predicated upon notice to an appropriate person and an opportunity to rectify any violation, we conclude, in the absence of further direction from Congress, that the implied damages remedy should be fashioned along the same lines. An \"appropriate person'' ... is, at a minimum, an official of the recipient entity with authority to take corrective action to end the discrimination. Consequently, in cases like this one that do not involve official policy of the recipient entity, we hold that a damages remedy will not lie under Title IX unless an official who at a minimum has authority to address the alleged discrimination and to institute corrective measures on the recipient's behalf has actual knowledge of discrimination in the recipient's programs and fails adequately to respond.\nWe think, moreover, that the response must amount to deliberate indifference to discrimination. The administrative enforcement scheme presupposes that an official who is advised of a Title IX violation refuses to take action to bring the recipient into compliance. The premise, in other words, is an official decision by the recipient not to remedy the violation. That framework finds a rough parallel in the standard of deliberate indifference. Under a lower standard, there would be a risk that the recipient would be liable in damages not for its own official decision but instead for its employees' independent actions. ...\nThe number of reported cases involving sexual harassment of students in schools confirms that harassment unfortunately is an all too common aspect of the educational experience. No one questions that a student suffers extraordinary harm when subjected to sexual harassment and abuse by a teacher, and that the teacher's conduct is reprehensible and undermines the basic purposes of the educational system. The issue in this case, however, is whether the independent misconduct of a teacher is attributable to the school district that employs him under a specific federal statute designed primarily to prevent recipients of federal financial assistance from using the funds in a discriminatory manner. Our decision does not affect any right of recovery that an individual may have against a school district as a matter of state law or against the teacher in his individual capacity under state law or under 42 USC Section 1983. Until Congress speaks directly on the subject, however, we will not hold a school district liable in damages under Title IX for a teacher's sexual harassment of a student absent actual notice and deliberate indifference. We therefore affirm the judgment of the Court of Appeals.\nPublished in Print: July 8, 1998, as Schools Not Liable Unless 'Deliberately Indifferent'\nReturn to the main story, \"Riley Restates Rules Against Harassment,\" in This Week's News.

        "title": "Arizona Curtails Bilingual Education - Education Week",
        "raw_content": "Arizona Curtails Bilingual Education\nArizona last week became the second state to approve a ballot initiative curtailing bilingual education in the public schools, an action that the measure's supporters say indicates Americans have grown increasingly disillusioned with the educational approach.\nBut opponents of Proposition 203 said that the measure appealed to anti- immigrant sentiment and that its passage underscores their belief that the public misunderstands the teaching method and its philosophical underpinnings.\nThe proposal passed with a large majority\u201463 percent to 37 percent\u2014as did a similar initiative 21/2 years ago in California. Both call for replacing bilingual education, in which students are taught academic subjects in their native language while also learning English, with \"intensive one-year English immersion.\"\n\"It seems that now twice in a row, measures along these lines have overcome enormous odds in campaigns,\" said Ron K. Unz, the Silicon Valley entrepreneur who financed both initiatives. The big win for Proposition 203 is \"a sign of how strongly people in Arizona feel that children should be taught English as soon as they go to school,\" he added. \"That same sentiment is true everywhere else.\"\n\"It seems that at some point the national politicians should get the idea that getting rid of bilingual education everywhere in the country is something they should do,\" Mr. Unz said. \"It would be very nice if I don't have to go state to state across the country getting rid of bilingual education.\"\n\"Suddenly the tables have shifted,\" said Linda Chavez, the president of the Center for Equal Opportunity, a Washington-based research and advocacy group that favors English immersion. \"Instead of opponents of bilingual education having to defend English immersion, it's now the defenders of bilingual education who are having to prove their case, and I think it's a very hard case to make.\"\nBut Delia Pompa, the executive director of the National Association for Bilingual Education, also based in Washington, said the passage of Proposition 203 demonstrates how little most voters understand about the needs of children who are learning English.\n\"Who has spoken is voters who went to the polls on that day,\" she said. \"Typically, these are people who don't have children in schools or haven't ever set foot in a bilingual education program.\"\nNot Letting Up\nMs. Pompa, a former head of the U.S. Department of Education's bilingual education office, said the initiative process allows voters to throw out bilingual education without any thoughtful consideration of how it could be improved. \"We would hope,\" she said, \"this is the end of the referendums.\"\nBut bilingual education opponents have no intention of letting up on using the initiative process, as long as they can find states that permit citizen-initiated ballot measures and have bilingual education programs in place.\nThe Center for Equal Opportunity is financing efforts to put an anti-bilingual measure on the 2002 Colorado ballot. Another strategy under consideration is to run initiatives in a bloc of smaller states that permit such ballot measures, Ms. Chavez said. States with bilingual programs that don't allow lawmaking through the initiative process include Illinois, New York, and Texas.\nSome observers suggest bilingual education opponents have a built-in advantage in getting such initiatives passed because any ballot language promoting English generally strikes a chord with voters, and they often misinterpret the term \"bilingual education.\"\n\"You just run bilingual education up a flagpole, and there's just a whole lot of opinion that it's not American,\" said Michael W. Kirst, a Stanford University education professor who has studied ballot measures in California and Oregon. \"You're tapping into the feeling that English is the key to a common culture, and bilingual education is running against that by maintaining a separate language and thus a separate culture. \"\nHe noted that in California, Mr. Unz spent about $1 million on the Proposition 227 campaign, a paltry amount compared with what backers of other initiatives in the state tend to spend. In Arizona, Mr. Unz, along with several minor donors, spent $172,000, mostly to pay for gathering signatures. Opponents spent $312,000, primarily for advertising and public-awareness efforts.\nM. Jean Johnson, the senior vice president of Public Agenda, a nonprofit research organization in New York City that studies public opinion on education issues, said a large gap of understanding about bilingual education separates bilingual educators and parents, even Hispanic parents.\nA 1998 public opinion survey by the group found that two in three parents said it was more important for public schools to teach English as quickly as possible to new immigrants, even if those students fall behind in other subjects. Nearly the same percentage of Hispanic parents agreed.\n\"For policymakers, bilingual education implies programs where children are getting coursework in their native language while learning English,\" she said. \"Parents talk about bilingual education as helping children to learn English or English- as-a-second-language programs.\"\nArizona's passage of Proposition 203 raises myriad issues that state officials will have to resolve in the coming weeks, said Laura Penny, a spokeswoman for the state education department. For example, the law doesn't specify a start date, although the department anticipates implementation by fall 2001.\nThe state also will have to determine what constitutes an English-immersion program. \"The initiative talks about one year, and English being the primary language of instruction,\" Ms. Penney said, \"but what does that mean when you get a teacher up in front of the classroom?\"\nSome Hispanic advocacy groups, including the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, are considering filing a lawsuit to try to block implementation of the proposition. Hector O. Villagra, a MALDEF staff lawyer, argued that the proposition violates the civil rights of limited-English-proficient students under federal law. MALDEF lost a federal lawsuit making that same claim against Proposition 227 in California.\nBut Mr. Villagra said the chances of winning such a claim against Proposition 203 were better because, unlike Proposition 227, the Arizona initiative makes it nearly impossible for parents to seek waivers that would permit some bilingual education programs to continue.\nState officials wonder how the new mandate will mesh with existing legal obligations to LEP students. Just last month, a federal judge ordered Arizona to conduct a cost analysis of programs for LEP students after it lost a lawsuit brought by the Arizona Center for Law in the Public Interest. The state was found guilty of having underfunded such programs for the past 10 years.\nAlejandra Sotomayor, a bilingual educator at Wakefield Middle School in Tucson and a spokeswoman for English Plus More, a group formed to oppose Proposition 203, said the measure had disabled her as a teacher. \"You cut my tongue, took off my hands, and said, 'Go teach the children,' \" she said.\nThe proposition's passage also suggests \"racism is alive and well in Arizona,\" she maintained, suggesting that supporters eitherdidn't understand it or were trying to send an unwelcoming message to immigrants.\nBut state Rep. Laura Knaperek, a Republican who serves on the education committee in the Arizona House of Representatives, countered that Proposition 203 passed in part because of bilingual education advocates' unwillingness to make needed changes.\n\"The system has not worked for a long time for kids. Families and teachers within that system saw that and courageously came forward with this initiative,\" said Ms. Knaperek, who initially opposed the initiative on the grounds that it would be better to bring about improvement through legislation. \"I believe a better piece of public policy comes out of the legislature ... because people vote sometimes on emotion,\" she said.\nBut this fall, she reversed her position, saying that bilingual educators weren't making enough progress in implementing reform legislation that she co-sponsored last year.\nMs. Knaperek acknowledged that voters who supported Proposition 203 didn't understand \"every detail\" about the measure, but she maintained that they understood \"the general idea of what was going on in the past and how it would change things.\"\nPublished in Print: November 15, 2000, as Arizona Curtails Bilingual Education\n\"Ariz.

        "raw_content": "States have come a long way in designing standards and tests, but not far enough.\nThe success of standards=based school improvement depends heavily on two elements: strong standards, and assessments that measure what the standards expect. But previously unreleased research findings suggest that states still have a long way to go in making their standards good enough and in designing tests that adequately reflect those standards.\nA series of analyses by Achieve--a nonprofit group in Cambridge, Mass., created by governors and business leaders to promote standards-based reform--suggests that while state standards have become clearer and more specific, many are still too vague and all-encompassing. They tend to repeat the same set of topics from grade to grade and omit some of the more challenging academic content stressed in other, high-performing countries.\nMoreover, the alignment between state standards and tests is often faulty. Some tests tend to measure some standards but not others. And they often focus on less demanding knowledge and skills, rather than on the more ambitious content spelled out in the standards. While most of the tests examined by Achieve were developed by states to match their standards, a handful were commercially prepared, off-the-shelf exams.\nBecause the quality and alignment of state standards and assessments are so crucial for standards-based reform to work, Education Week asked Achieve to work with the newspaper's staff to summarize the group's findings for Quality Counts 2001.\n\"The standards themselves are stronger than when states first started developing them in the early 1990s,\" says Matthew Gandal, the vice president of Achieve. \"The tests also are stronger than a decade ago, when there was no intention of aligning them with standards because there weren't any.\"\n\"However,\" he adds, \"in some cases, the standards and tests are still not as strong as they need to be to move the schools in this country as far as we want them to move in the new century.\"\nSince 1998, Achieve has worked with more than 20 states to examine both the quality of their academic standards and the match between those standards and state assessments.\nIn one set of studies, the group compared state standards and assessments against the expectations of other, high-performing countries. Achieve researchers used the analysis of curriculum expectations created as part of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study, a comprehensive look at performance and instructional practices in 41 countries.\nIn addition, Achieve conducted a more in-depth analysis of state standards and tests in nine states.\n\u2018Mile Wide, Inch Deep\u2019\nTIMSS was the most extensive cross-national study of student achievement and educational practices ever undertaken. In addition to testing students' knowledge and skills in math and science in grades 4 and 8 and at the end of high school, researchers analyzed curricula in the participating countries. The analysis looked both at the \"intended\" curricula laid out in official documents and at the \"enacted\" curricula that teachers actually used.\nThe purpose of the investigation was two-fold: first, to determine the common elements of the curricula in the participating nations in order to craft a cross-national test of achievement; and second, to provide background information to help researchers understand the factors that influence learning.\nU.S. students placed in the middle of the pack in most grade levels tested on the TIMSS exams, with performance slipping as students moved from elementary school to high school. The accompanying curriculum analysis attributed the undistinguished performance to a failure of most American schools to teach math and science in a coherent way that leads to in-depth understanding. The TIMSS researchers found that, compared with those in other nations, math and science textbooks in the United States were overstuffed with topics, none of which was taught in sufficient depth. In the words of the researchers, the standards in this country are \"a mile wide and an inch deep.\" They also found that the high-performing TIMSS countries tended to have a more focused set of standards.\nIn 1998, Achieve commissioned William H. Schmidt, the national research coordinator for TIMSS and a professor of education at Michigan State University in East Lansing, to examine how the standards and tests in 21 states compared with those of the top-achieving countries. Using the framework created for TIMSS, Schmidt scrutinized the standards in math and science and the tests in those subjects in the 21 states. He then compared the documents with those in the nations that performed highest on the international study. The analysis considered:\nThe content areas included in the state standards and tests;\nThe grade levels at which the content areas are introduced and expected to be covered; and\nThe proportion of test items devoted to the content included in the curricula of the best-performing nations.\nIn grade 8, only 13 of the 21 states provided both their math standards and tests for analysis.\nAchieve\u2019s \u2018Benchmarking\u2019 Initiative\nIn 1998, Achieve also launched a \"benchmarking\" initiative to provide an in-depth analysis of standards and tests for interested states. The effort began with studies of standards and tests in Michigan and North Carolina. Since then, Achieve has conducted similar analyses for another seven states. The Michigan and North Carolina analyses examined standards and tests in four subjects: English/language arts, mathematics, history/social studies, and science. The other analyses examined only English/language arts and math.\nThe studies consisted of two main phases. First, experts convened by Achieve analyzed the standards documents by comparing them against \"benchmarks\" selected by a broader group of master teachers, academicians, and curriculum specialists as among the best in the world. In English/language arts, state standards were compared against those in California and Massachusetts; in math, the benchmark standards came from Arizona and Japan. In addition, the experts compared state standards for early literacy with those from North Carolina, Texas, and the New Standards project.\nIn conducting their inquiries, reviewers considered the rigor of the standards, their comprehensiveness and focus, and their clarity. Side-by-side comparisons with the benchmark documents enabled the reviewers to determine, among other characteristics, if a state's standards provided an equivalent level of guidance, and whether a state expected students to demonstrate the same knowledge and skills as the benchmark states at a similar grade level.\nAfter examining a state's standards, the Achieve reviewers looked at the state's tests to see whether they measured what the standards called for. In that analysis, the reviewers considered the content of the test, the performance expected of students, the test's rigor, and the depth and breadth of the content being measured. In addition to allowing judgments about the quality of state tests, that review provided an important window into the quality of state standards. For example, it is difficult to gauge alignment if a state's standards are not well-developed or are too vague.\nQuality of Standards\nBoth sets of studies found that state standards have improved dramatically in the past few years. In 1996, when only 14 states had standards in all four core subjects, reviews found that most standards lacked clarity and specificity and were not well-grounded in content. Many standards included expectations that were unmeasurable, such as students' enjoyment of reading.\nToday, 49 states have standards, and the picture is far different. Achieve found that the overwhelming majority of state standards now are clear and jargon-free. For the most part, the standards also are written in measurable terms.\nAre States Testing Their Standards?\nAn Achieve study of 8th grade math standards and assessments in 13 states shows that state standards span a large number of topics and that many of the topics students are expected to master are not included on their state\u2019s test. In one state, 8th grade math standards cover 32 core TIMSS topic areas. At the same time, 57 percent of those topics do not appear on the state test.\nMoreover, states are continuing to refine their standards, with noticeable results. Last year, for example, Indiana revised it standards following an Achieve review, and the group has since described those standards as among the strongest in the nation.\nBut states have room for improvement. Although many state standards are clearer than before, some are still both too fuzzy and too exhaustive to provide sufficient guidance to teachers or test developers. One state, for example, expect all student to \"read literally, inferentially, and critically.\" (Achieve did not identify states by name.)\nWhile states may want students to demonstrate such abilities, Gandal notes, such a standard says nothing about how to craft lessons or exercises to help students accomplish the goal or how to judge if a student has achieved the desired results. Almost anything can be taught or tested under such a wide net.\nIn part, such vagueness may reflect states' reluctance to dictate to districts or schools how to teach. \"At the beginning of the standards movement, I think many teachers and others in local school districts said, 'Stay away from the curriculum; this is our issue,'\" says Gandal. \"I think what we've seen over the decade, as accountability has kicked in, is that people in local districts wanted more specific standards.\"\nAchieve has found that some of the newer standards, such as the English standard in Massachusetts and the math standard in Arizona, have done a better job of walking the line between state guidance and local control.\nThose standards show that it is possible at the state level to provide clear and specific expectation for what students should learn, according to Achieve, while till accommodating multiple programs of study in school.\nStates also need to increase the rigor of their standards, the Achieve studies suggest. When held up to those of high-performing nations, many state standards are not a challenging as they could be.\nIn some states, the expectations for 8th graders are equivalent to what other countries expect elementary students to master. For example, one state expects 8th graders to apply measurement formulas that Japanese students are expected to apply in grades 4 and 5. The same state asks students to add and subtract fractions with like denominators in 5th grade; Japan expects students to add and subtract decimals and fractions with unlike denominators in 3rd grade.\nThose lower expectations reflect a pattern of repetition and redundancy in many state standards. States simply include the same topic year after year, without expecting students to acquire a more sophisticated understanding of content or more complex reasoning skills over time. Because of that redundancy, the standard for students in the upper grades often are crammed with so many expectations that teachers cannot teach any of them in depth-the \u201cmile wide, inch deep\u201d phenomenon encountered by the TIMSS researchers.\nNations performing at the top on international exams expect students to master topics and move on, in contrast to U.S. standards.\nFor example, Schmidt's analyses showed that states included as many as 40 math topics in their standards for grade 8, compared with fewer than 20 in high-performing countries like Japan. Those countries expect students to master topics and move on. The Japanese standards do not even mention measurement after 5th grade--a sharp contrast to the U.S. state mentioned above.\nThe Achieve studies also found that, compared with those of high-performing nations, state standards omit important content. Many states begin their standards with 4th grade and provide little guidance about beginning-literacy instruction for kindergarten or 1st grade teachers who are teaching children to read. Yet without a strong foundation in reading, children will be ill-prepared to meet higher expectations at the end of elementary school.\nA number of states also leave out important content in mathematics, according to the Achieve analyses. They do not specify that students should learn the fundamental concepts and properties of algebra and geometry. They tend to neglect such topics as congruence, quadratics, slope, and trigonometry, which high-achieving countries emphasize in 8th grade.\nMeasuring Less Complex Skills\nAs with the standards, Achieve found that state tests have improved substantially in recent years. Many represent a far cry from the minimum-competency tests of a previous generation.\nIn two of the states examined by Achieve, the tests are particularly challenging-in fact, more rigorous than the state ' standards.\nIn those states, the tests are challenging and measure important knowledge and skills. In English/language arts, the tests ask students to show their comprehension of reading passages and to use their understanding to make inferences based on what they have read. In math, the tests pose challenging problems that enable students to demonstrate their understanding of important concepts.\nWhile the other state tests are not as strong, all of them show significant improvement over those of the past.\nNotably, they all employ a mix of test formats. Although states continue to rely largely on multiple-choice questions, the tests include at least some open-ended ones that ask students to show a deeper level of understanding. Often, however, such open-ended questions call on students to write only brief, short-answer responses.\nWriting assessments are particularly strong, Achieve found. They not only provide a good gauge of students' ability to produce prose, they also send an important signal to teachers that writing ability is important.\nAchieve's alignment studies also found that state tests do, in fact, measure much of the knowledge and many of the skills delineated in the states' standards. Tests, in many cases, do an effective job of measuring basic knowledge and skills and, in most cases, attempt to measure such higher-order abilities as reasoning and problem-solving.\nBut the attempts to measure such higher-level cognitive tasks are not always successful. In some cases, what passes for problem-solving is little more than slightly more challenging arithmetic operations. Students are asked simply to plug numbers into ready-made formulas, rather than to determine which solutions are appropriate and if their solutions are reasonable. Rarely are students asked to collect data themselves.\nState tests tend to be effective at measuring basic knowledge and skills, and are less successful at gauging higher-order ones.\nIn other cases, tests measure only the least complex of the skills called for in the standards. In part, that problem reflects the all-encompassing nature of state standards.\nSome standards ask students to demonstrate a number of skills, such as identifying geometric properties and using them to solve problems. But the tests may ask student only to identify the properties. In such an instance, the test item may be \"aligned\" to the standard in a superficial sense, but it does not measure all of what a state expects students to demonstrate.\nAchieve also found that the tests tend to be \"unbalanced\" in that they measure some standards but not others, which is understandable. A single test is unlikely to measure all of a state's standards. In some cases, the state choose to emphasize the most important concepts or skills. But in others, more demanding content is omitted from the tests.\nAnd sometimes it was not clear that a state had acted deliberately in choosing what to test. Instead, the choice seemed haphazard. In one state, for example, almost half an 8th grade reading test assessed a single standard: \"Make inferences and draw conclusions.\" While that objective is worthwhile, it leaves little room for other standards that are also important but are not tested, among them, word recognition and vocabulary, Achieve notes.\nSimilarly, in math, some state tests tend to focus on number and measurement, leaving little room for standards related to algebra and geometry. In 8th grade, states tend to measure arithmetic, which other nations expect their students to master in elementary school. In one state, for example, nearly half the test items in grade 8 measured whole-number operations, and 40 percent were devoted to measurement. (Some questions could have tapped both topics.)\nIn contrast, only one-fourth of the items measured two-dimensional geometry, and another one-fourth measured functions, relations, and equations--the fundamentals of algebra.\n\"In some cases, what we're finding is that the tests and what they value and what they measure isn't always as rigorous as you think it should be from looking at the standards,\" Gandal says. \"The question that raises for us, and that it ought to raise for states, is what are you really encouraging teachers to do in the classroom? To aim high or to aim lower, where the tests are truly pegged?\"\nOne of the most serious shortcomings identified by the Achieve analyses involves the level of challenge state tests pose for high school students. Simply put, the difficulty of tests tends to reach a plateau or decline between middle school and high school. In one state, for example, the 4th and 8th grade math tests are demanding and ask students to demonstrate knowledge and skill that are important and appropriate for those grades. But the 11th grade test is considerably easier and asks questions that are more appropriate for middle school students.\nThree of the toughest issues on the horizon, as identified by Achieve, are where to set the bar for student performance, particularly for high school graduation; how fast states should expect performance to improve; and how to identify multiple measures of student learning.\nIn general, Gandal points out, American standards have not yet addressed the fundamental question: How high is high enough? To answer that question, he says, states need to figure out what students need to know and be able to do in order to succeed in the workplace or in college after they graduate from high school. States must engage business and higher education institutions in getting answers to that question in ways that those groups have not been engaged so far, he argues.\nIn addition, states have taken divergent paths in setting standards. Some, like Texas, set them relatively low and steadily ratchet them up over time. Others, like Massachusetts and New York, set them high at the outset. While performance has improved, it is still far from the targets Massachusetts and New York set. States need to determine which approach works the best.\nStates also need to consider the use of multiple measures of student performance. Most experts agree that a student\u2019s educational fate should not rest on a single test taken at one point in time. But, for the most part, the testing and education communities have not yet agreed on what additional measures states might use to see if students are meeting state standards, let alone how to incorporate such measures into their accountability systems.\nState leaders need the advice of measurement experts and others in the education community on such issues, Gandal says.\n\u201cEveryone seems to agree there ought to be multiple measures,\u201d he says, \u201cbut there are precious few models of what this would look like while maintaining a common, high standard.\u201d\nGandal contends that states are willing to tackle such tough issues. The fact that some states have elected to subject their standards and tests to independent scrutiny proves that states want those initiatives to succeed, he says.\nBut states cannot address such challenges alone. \u201cIt\u2019s incumbent on all of us who believe in high standards for all students to not simply criticize states for what doesn\u2019t work,\u201d Gandal says, \u201cbut to help come up with concrete solutions.\u201d\nVol. 20, Issue 17, Page 33-36, 38, 40\nPublished in Print: January 11, 2001, as Gaining Ground",

        "title": "Liquid Fuels and Natural Gas in the Americas - International - Analysis - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)",
        "raw_content": "\u2039 World\nLiquid Fuels and Natural Gas in the Americas\nRevised: February 3, 2014 (revision)\nThis report examines the major energy trends and developments of the past decade in the Americas, focusing on liquid fuels and natural gas\u2014particularly, reserves and resources, production, consumption, trade, and investment. The Americas, which include North America, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America, account for a significant portion of global supply, demand, and trade of both liquid fuels and natural gas. Liquid fuels include all petroleum and petroleum products, natural gas liquids, biofuels, and liquids derived from other hydrocarbon sources.\nAt the outset of 2013, the Americas region accounted for one-third of proved worldwide reserves of crude oil, at 536 billion barrels, and one-tenth of proved natural gas reserves, at 688 trillion cubic feet (Tcf), as well as immense recoverable resources of oil and gas including reservoired resources, tight oil, and shale gas.\nIn 2012, the Americas produced 29% of the world's liquid fuels supply, at almost 26 million barrels per day (bbl/d), and consumed one-third of the world's liquid fuels, at nearly 30 million bbl/d. Combined, the countries in the region imported and exported substantial volumes of both crude oil and refined petroleum products, accounting for 25% of global crude imports, 9% of global crude exports, and 22% of global petroleum product imports and exports. The countries in the Americas imported 4 million bbl/d and exported 3 million bbl/d of refined petroleum products in 2012, much of which was exported from the United States.\nFor much of the past decade, the United States has been a major crude oil, petroleum product, and natural gas trading partner with other countries in the Americas. From 2003 to 2012, the United States imported about 5 million bbl/d of crude oil from other countries in the region\u2014primarily from Canada, Mexico, and Venezuela. However, the quantities and shares of imports from those countries are shifting. With U.S. crude oil production continuing to increase, domestic production has displaced some imports of crude oil, including those from Latin America, defined as Mexico plus Central America, the Caribbean, and South America.\nThe United States has been a major petroleum product supplier to the Americas for the past decade, and its significance as a product supplier has grown considerably in recent years. In 2003, the United States exported 0.6 million bbl/d of petroleum products to other countries in the Americas, primarily Mexico and Canada. In 2012, U.S. exports to the countries in the region totaled 2.0 million bbl/d, still primarily to Mexico and Canada but increasingly to other countries, most notably Brazil and Chile. As a result, the United States recently became a net exporter of petroleum products.\nRefined product trade in the Americas has changed as demand in Latin America (the Americas excluding the United States and Canada), including demand for cleaner, low-sulfur products, has grown faster than local refinery capacity. U.S. refineries on the Gulf Coast, where some of the most sophisticated and economic refining capacity in the world is concentrated, have been well positioned to provide additional supply to meet this growing demand.\nIn 2012, the Americas produced and consumed about 31% of the world's natural gas, both at 37 Tcf, while accounting for 20% of global natural gas trade in both imports and exports, both at 6 Tcf. More than 80% of both natural gas imports and exports in the Americas were transported via pipeline to neighboring countries, while the remainder was traded within the region as liquefied natural gas (LNG). The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) expects natural gas exports from the Americas to increase further as natural gas supply, particularly in the United States, continues to rise as shale gas production increases. Additional LNG terminals and the ongoing Panama Canal expansion, which will allow passage of larger LNG tankers, will further boost LNG exports in the Americas region.\nRecognizing the abundance of hydrocarbon resources in the Americas and the availability of technical capabilities to produce them, companies within and outside of the region have invested heavily in developing and producing liquid fuels and natural gas. Both international oil companies (IOCs) and state-owned oil companies in the Americas have made the most substantial investments, followed by companies based in Europe and in Asia and Oceania.\nForeign investment in the region has been concentrated in those countries with legal and regulatory structures open to foreign involvement. Countries with the most open structures like Canada, Brazil, Colombia, and the United States have attracted significantly more investment than others in the region. Mexico, which recently adopted new energy reforms that allow some types of foreign private investment in the energy sector, looks to join their ranks.\nAsian investment in the region has risen dramatically in the past five years, in particular, investment by China's national oil companies to secure both crude oil supplies and physical assets, such as refineries, especially in those countries considered to have more restrictive foreign investment laws and regulations.\nThe Americas region holds an abundance of existing proven reserves, as well as the promise of abundant resources of both oil and natural gas. While the Americas have accounted for a considerable portion of the global markets in liquid fuels and natural gas and have attracted sizeable investments, the region has the potential for further expansion and development.\nSee complete report",

        "raw_content": "Rear-end motorcycle accident raises liability questions\nOn behalf of Ellis Law Offices LLP posted in Motorcycle Accidents on Thursday, June 12, 2014.\nRear-end accidents, people often assume, are the fault of the driver who hits the car in front. It is true that drivers behind another car must be ready for that car to slow down or stop, and not follow that car too closely. However, this is not a black-and-white issue: sometimes liability is more complicated, and that can be particularly important in a motorcycle accident.\nOne recent motorcycle accident occurred about an hour southeast of Worcester, on the Massachusetts-Rhode Island border. Police are not certain as to what may have triggered the crash, but a motorcycle heading down I-195 rear-ended a car at night time. The motorcyclist lost control of his ride, crashed, and was taken to the hospital.\nNeither of the car's occupants were injured, but the motorcyclist died at the hospital from his injuries. Massachusetts authorities are investigating what caused the fatal motorcycle crash.\nThis scenario is in some ways just the opposite of what one would expect in a rear-end accident. Typically the occupants of the car in front will suffer injuries, if anyone. But a motorcycle collision is unique in that the motorcyclist is always more vulnerable to catastrophic injuries due to the degree of exposure on a motorcycle as opposed to a car.\nAs far as rear-end accidents go, there are some factors that can point to liability on the part of a vehicle in front. Drivers with one or more malfunctioning brake lights, for example, might be held liable if they get rear-ended. Drivers also must avoid stopping suddenly in the middle of traffic if at all possible; doing so could be an act of negligence. On the other hand, if another vehicle did force a car to stop suddenly, that third party might also bear liability.\nIt is therefore crucial not to assume that a driver from behind was at fault in a rear-end accident. Especially when family members of a fatal motorcycle accident victim are considering a wrongful death lawsuit, all factors should be carefully analyzed when reviewing the available legal options.\nSource: WPRI, \"Man dies in late night motorcycle crash,\" Courtney Caligiuri, June 2, 2014\nTags: catastrophic injuries, fatal accidents, motorcycle accidents",

Daron Wyatt said.\nGray smoke could be seen pouring out of the structure when the blaze was first reported at about 5 p.m. It was extinguished about 30 minutes later. Hundreds of park visitors and employees were stuck outside the structure unable to get to their cars until the evacuation and shutdown ended after about two hours.\n\"A lot of people are just tired; they've been here all day. It's more of a nuisance than anything,\" Darren Clark, whose family of four couldn't get to their car because of the shutdown, told KNBC-TV. \"I'm kind of hoping it's not my vehicle.\"\nThe Mickey & Friends Structure, with sections named for Disney characters and trams that take visitors to the entrance to the Disney Resort's two theme parks, is a familiar spot for millions of visitors who pay $18 to park.\nThe Disney parks remained open as usual until 8 p.m. Disney representatives referred questions about the blaze to fire officials.",

        "raw_content": "Is this even news at this point? It's never really news to me as I can count the number of minutes I've ever given to the Oscars on one hand. Do I hate the movies? No, though it is a rare one that captures my attention and keeps me watching the entirety of the movie instead of stopping after 2 or 3 minutes in. Do I hate celebrities? No, but I don't hold them in any higher esteem than I do any other people at least with very few exceptions. Well, what then?\nOk, here you go, the reasons I do not watch the Oscars:\nToo much talking. I do not mind if they want to mention social or political topics because everyone has an opinion and there are some topics out there worthy of discussing when you have a platform but I'm not the least bit interested in any personal stories or that mile-long list of people they believe to be worthy of a thank-you. And all that NOT funny nonsense the writers have the presenters say? UGH. Give me a break although it does say something about the amazing talent of the audience who expresses their forced laughter making it seem real. Almost. It takes loads less time to read a list of winners on the Internet the next morning.\nRarely if ever do I agree on the nominee choice in the big categories. The little categories are meaningless to me as I don't know those people or anything about what they do. The big ones? I've most likely not even considered seeing the movie nor heard of the actors/actresses. If I have seen the movie, I either didn't care for it or found it to be mediocre at best. There are few actors/actresses I believe to be worthy of an award.\nI have rarely if ever agreed with the chosen winners. Sometimes it seems this is nothing more than a popularity contest based on how many people saw a movie or how much a movie or person was trending with the public. That's not honoring someone for great work.\nI have an issue with the amount of money spent on something so trivial and this includes their ridiculous gowns. I get it. If you have money you certainly are welcome to spend it however you choose. But if you're going to stand up and spout support for social issues perhaps conforming to the glitz of Hollywood is not the best idea or maybe that's just me. And then there's the fact that most of the designers must have been on some type of mind-altering drug because who designs that in their right mind? Unless they've designed what the actress requested in which case what was the drug of choice for those actresses? Oh, creative license you say? I'll give you that but still...\nAll that being said, there was one movie in the line-up which peaked my interest, THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI. Why? The title and the actress. The title is interesting and I do like Francis McDormand (I had to look up her name, oops but I loved her in and recognized her from FARGO and I loved FARGO and have watched it multiple times. Seriously. Good. Movie.)\nI realize I am in the minority on this one but that doesn't change my opinion about the Oscars nor will it have an effect on the future of the Oscars. Ha! What I'd really like to know is--\nIf you do watch the Oscars, why?\nand feel free to FAVORITE the shop! \ud83d\ude01\ud83d\udc93\nNew Handmade wool felt succulent garden!\nCheck them out HERE and HERE!\nLabels: Fargo, Frances McDormand, movie awards, movies, Oscars, Oscars 2018, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri\nI did not watch this year and have no idea who or what was in the running nor who or what won.\nI only know the winners of a few categories because I looked at the list the next morning. I just find the whole thing such a waste of time. And I hardly ever like the movies who win.\nWe refuse to watch any of the awards shows because they have turned into political platforms (for idiots). I don't care and usually don't agree with the winners either. I DO love Frances McDormand and we own the DVD Fargo and have watched it many times. That movie does sound interesting and we will catch it when it hits Netflix.\nI don't mind the sharing of their political views but the rest of it I do mind. FARGO was fabulous, wasn't it? I'm going to catch it when it hits Netflix, too. There's no way I'm taking out a federal loan to go to the theater. LOL\nFarm Girl March 9, 2018 at 8:02 PM\nI haven't watched them in years. Just because I can think of so much other things to do that are more fun. I know I won't see the movies maybe, but three billboards did look very interesting to me.\nWhen Emilie lived at home we did have a good time mocking the dresses. Its no fun by myself now. :) I agree with your assessments.\nHaha! I understand. It's always more fun with a partner in crime. LOL\nbill lisleman March 12, 2018 at 8:34 PM\nAs you might remember I mentioned watching the Oscars in a post. I find the show entertaining but I could care less about the dresses and glamour stuff. They came up with a contest this year for the shortest acceptance speech. I think it helped move things along. My daughter and I saw 3 Billboards the other day. Great movie. Even knowing the basic story line didn't help in guessing what and who was going to do something next. Keeps you guessing until the end. For people easily upset by cursing I don't recommend it. Also, the violence might disturb some. If you see it, please post about it.\nI do remember that. I will wait to see it until it's on Netflix or Hulu because I can't stand the behavior of other movie goers. The language probably won't bother me and I usually close my eyes when things get too violent though there have been movies I turned off because the violence was too much. I don't think I've ever turned one off because of the language. I'll let you know!",

        "raw_content": "GC Pro Part of Texas Church\u2019s Ongoing Upgrades\n\u2014 GC Pro has been regularly working with the Assembly of Yahweh 7th Day near Cisco, Texas, and after providing systems and installation services for the church\u2019s most recent AV upgrades, it\u2019s now in the plans to build a dedicated recording studio \u2014\nThe last three years have been busy ones for the Assembly of Yahweh 7th Day near Cisco, Texas, and the Dallas-area office of Guitar Center Professional (GC Pro), the outside sales division of Guitar Center that focuses on the needs of professional users. In that time, GC Pro has helped the church and its pastor, Farris Wilks, and his family build a recording studio at the Wilks\u2019 home in Cisco and significantly upgrade the church\u2019s AV. In 2011, after initial plans, GC Pro contracted Horacio Malvicino, Managing Director of the Malvicino Design Group, a Forest Hills, New York-based GC Pro Affiliate Services Program member, for design and construction of the studio. GC Pro sourced and supplied technology including a 32-channel Neve Genesys digitally controlled analog console, an Avid D-Command, a Pro Tools HD system and an Ocean Way HR2 monitoring system. After the studio was finished, GC Pro then was asked to update the church\u2019s AV systems.\nIn 2012, GC Pro brought in GC Pro Affiliate Services Program member Omnicoustics, based in McKinney, Texas, to install new Robe and Chauvet lighting systems; Panasonic video cameras and live-video switcher; a NewTek Tricaster video switcher for recorded video content for post production applications; and Eiki video projectors.\nJeffery McDaniel, GC Pro Senior Account Manager, says this is the second major systems upgrade that GC Pro has done for Assembly of Yahweh 7th Day \u2013 In 2010, GC Pro upgraded the church\u2019s sound system with a JBL Array Series system paired with an Avid VENUE SC48 digital live sound console and an Avid Pro Tools LE system, as well as a new complement of microphones, a new Aviom in-ear monitor system for the church band, and other related equipment -- and it underscores the kind of relationship that GC Pro has with many of its customers. \u201cWe come to know our customers pretty well, because so many of them are repeat customers,\u201d he says. \u201cWe have a pretty good idea of what their needs are and how best to meet them.\u201d\nAnother reason that GC Pro clients are so loyal is the lengths the GC Pro staff is willing to go for them. When it turned out that the dongle sourced for the new lighting system didn\u2019t have the right amount of channels, McDaniel set out to find one that did, working under an extreme deadline. The only vendor who had what they needed was in Canada. As the event for which the lighting controller would be critical drew near, McDaniel told the Canadian supplier to use FedEx\u2019s premium same-day delivery service \u2013 the supplier got the new dongle to their local airport at 11 a.m. the same day, and it arrived at FedEx\u2019s freight station at Dallas-Ft. Worth Airport that same evening. McDaniel then drove it the three hours to Cisco, arriving at 11 p.m., and had it ready to use for the church\u2019s worship service the next morning. McDaniel also helped participate in their first service, running their newly purchased computer program to display the music\u2019s lyrics. \u201cWhatever it takes to make it work for the customer, that\u2019s what we\u2019re willing to do to make it happen,\u201d says McDaniel.\nThat same philosophy will apply to the new recording studio, named Seven Pillars Studios, that GC Pro will help design, build and equip, for a planned opening in 2013. Much of the equipment that GC Pro provided for the Wilks\u2019 home studio will migrate to the new facility, which is also being designed and commissioned by the Malvicino Design Group, and which will feature two control rooms around a single large tracking room, with an SSL AWS948 console in the B studio. \u201cWe really get to know our clients,\u201d says McDaniel. \u201cAnd they really get to know us, which means they know we\u2019ll be there for them year in and year out.\u201d\nFor more information, please visit www.gcpro.com.\nGC Pro Opens Technical Support Group in Nashville\nMajor Upgrades for V-Control Pro 2 Now Available\nADL Announces Penteo 3 Pro and Appoints GC Pro as U.S. Distributor\nBIAS Offers Discounted Upgrades to Peak Pro 5",

        "title": "Melanoma \u2013 Signs, Symptoms and Treatment - EPIC ~ Exclusive Physicians | Integrated & Comprehensive",
        "raw_content": "Melanoma is a type of skin cancer, and is marked by changes in the appearance of a region of the skin. As they develop on the skin, there\u2019s a better chance of early detection and cure.\nSigns of melanoma include changes in the shape, color or size of an existing mole; generally, moles are harmless \u2013 they are small and evenly colored and remain the same over time. However, if it becomes larger or there is some discoloration, it could be an indication of melanoma.\nA common method of detecting melanoma is the ABCDE method:\nAsymmetry: Irregular shape of mole\nBorder: Ragged or irregular shape of the edge\nColor: Unevenly shaded or colored mole\nDiameter: The mole is more than 7mm in diameter\nEvolving or Elevation: Change in the texture; evolving from flat to raised mole, etc. To know more about it, check this infographic: Count Your Moles and Know Your Skin Cancer Risk \u2013 Infographic\nIt is advisable to consult your physician if you notice any of the above signs. Other symptoms may include:\nPigmentation, redness, and swelling in the areas of the skin surrounding the border of the spot\nItching, pain, tenderness\nScaly skin, oozing or bleeding from the mole\nDark spots in the eye\u2019s iris, partial blindness or blurred vision\nAny unusual skin growths apart from moles that seem to change in size, color, texture etc.\nThough melanomas usually develop in the regions of the skin that are usually exposed to the skin, they may also develop between the toes, underneath nails, on the palms and soles, genital, and even the eyes.\nExposure to the sun\u2019s UV rays and other UV light (tanning beds) is the chief risk factor for melanoma. The higher the exposure to UV light, the greater the risk of melanoma; children who have sunburns can have increased risk of melanoma in adulthood; people who spend a lot of time outdoors for work or leisure, and even sportspersons, are all at a greater risk of melanoma. However, melanoma can also develop on parts of the skin not exposed to sunlight like armpits, groin, and so on. You can bring down your risk of melanoma by controlling factors you can. For example \u2013 do not get into tanning beds, and limit your exposure to direct sunlight, especially at mid-day. Get regular skin examinations performed, as there could be many factors that cause melanoma that are not under your control.\nThe risk of melanoma increases with age, though it can affect people of all ages. People above the age of 55 are at the most risk; it is also common in women aged 25-30.\nInfections, viruses, and diseases that weaken the immune system, and immune suppression therapy after organ transplant are all risk factors for melanoma.\nCaucasians are at a higher risk of developing melanoma, especially those with blonde or auburn hair, blue or green eyes, and those whose skin develops burns or freckles easily.\nMost moles are harmless and remain benign lifelong; however, having several moles on the body could indicate a heightened risk of developing melanoma. Individuals with dysplastic nevi, or moles that look like melanoma, are also at a higher risk for melanoma. It is not necessary that all dysplastic nevi will develop into melanomas; however, if you have such moles you need to consult a dermatologist and get a thorough skin examination performed.\nIf either or both of your parents or siblings had melanoma, you are at increased risk; if you were diagnosed with it any time previously, you may develop it again. A condition called xeroderma pigmentosum is passed on genetically; this disease inhibits the skin to repair itself when it gets damaged due to UV exposure. Such individuals are also at a greater risk of developing this cancer.\nMelanoma is the most dangerous skin cancer, and the fifth most common type of any cancer. After a thorough skin examination and a few tests, the oncologist will conduct a thorough evaluation of your melanoma and chart out a comprehensive plan of treatment. Treatment includes medication, radiation, surgery, and supportive care to minimize side effects.\nIf detected early enough, melanoma can be operated upon; the patient is administered local anesthesia, and the tumor, along with some healthy tissue (margin to be safe) is removed surgically.\nHowever if the melanoma cells have metastasized to distant areas in the body, or the lymph nodes, surgery alone will not suffice. A combination of treatments may be deployed to combat the cancer. This could include immunotherapy which includes stimulation of the immune system to destroy cancer cells.\nTargeted therapy is another new technique that has emerged in the fight against melanoma. This treatment includes the identification of genetic defects or mutations in the melanomas; drugs that target those specific mutations are administered, preventing the melanoma cells from growing.",

        "title": "Understanding Self-Immolation in Tibet",
        "raw_content": "Asia abril 28, 2018\nOn May 19, Jamyang Losal, a 22 years old Tibetan monk, set himself on fire in the Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Tsojang. Losal was the 150th Tibetan to immolate himself to protest against China \u2018s policy on the Tibetan plateau since 2009 (1). In the last years the brutal cycle of violence has been increasing, despite (and indeed because of) strong police controls.\nAgainst this, the aim of this paper is to explore the phenomenon of self immolation of Tibetans, a practice which, although it extends almost to the entire Asian continent, remains inconceivable to Western eyes. From an anthropological point of view, the phenomenon is understood as a social fact, which finds its causes and their impacts at a collective and not an individual level. It is argued that the roots of the phenomenon should not be sought in economic differences, but on the social discrimination policy by the Chinese state which has been increasing as the years go. In this sense, it should not be understood simply as an act of religious nature, but rather as social and political. However, religious particularities have given this phenomenon distinctive features. Trying to use as many anthropological concepts and views as possible, it is concluded that, contrary to the simplistic and \u201cprimitive\u201d conceptions of Tibetans by the majority of Chinese, this practice involves an act of immense complexity and social significance.\nFirst, it should be noted that there are virtually no anthropologists in the area of self-immolation today. There are also no foreign journalists, because access to the area is extremely limited. Monasteries and towns linked to immolations were blocked and are guarded by military troops under the pretext of \u201cprotecting the people\u201d and ensure \u201csocial order\u201d. Time magazine declared that the Tibetan self-immolation was the #1 most underreported story of 2011 (2). As a result, it is difficult to rely on firsthand ethnographic research on the ground. Being the participant observation the main source for anthropological analysis, in these case we have to rely on anthropological material of relative antiquity and ethnographic studies about Tibetan exiles who have provided most of the information.\nHaving noticed this, it must be said that there is a Chinese common perception that Tibetans, as a traditional society mired in myths and rituals, are \u201csimple and primitive\u201d people who do not recognize how much they have benefited from China \u2018s generosity. That assumption is similar to some of the earliest anthropological approaches on non-western societies (e.g. Morgan, Tylor or Frazer). Although some Chinese express sympathy and understanding in private, most see the acts of immolation under the assumption that the perpetrators must have been deceived by external forces who manipulated their \u201cprimitive and simple minds\u201d (1).\nBut the reality of this practice is much more complicated. Although the social practice of auto immolation is novel in these claims, it is part of a tradition of protest against Chinese rule in Tibet. Meanwhile, self-immolation as a form of political protest is much more common than most people think. It mainly prevails in countries that are home to many Buddhists and Hindus, who have long ascetic traditions that sometimes involve radical acts of physical self-denial (3). At the same time, suicide protest has a long history in Chinese regions. In recent years, protest suicides have intensified among marginalized Chinese groups. However, Tibetans frame the practice in the specifically Buddhist expression of intentional conquest of death, in an entirely different cosmology (4).\nSelf-immolation in Tibet is characterized by the fact that one acts on behalf of a collective cause, and this act inspires others to perform similar acts. In this sense, their actions can be understood as a social fact in the sense of Durkheim, which arises not from individual pulses, but from the specific social conditions of being Tibetan in China today (5). Tibetans have been protesting against the \u201coccupation and unjust government\u201d of China since 1950. Since then, China has gradually introduced more subtle repression through policies that weaken and deprive certain rights to the native Tibetan population, through varying degrees of daily oppression. In addition, since 1989 Tiananmen protests, the Chinese state has given explicit priority to the \u201cstability above all\u201d policy. The goal is to combine political and cultural controls from above with rapid economic growth from below to theoretically produce support for the party-state. This imposition of stability acts against any potential politic, cultural, legal or spiritual source of opposition (1).\nBen Hillman (6) attributed the tension in the region to uneven development, highlighting the levels of illiteracy among Tibetans, preventing them from competing in the market. Social indices show that Tibetans are behind the average of China in all respects. However, this argument does not consider the long historical nature of the ethnic conflict. Tibetan resistance has a history that predates the economic leap of China in recent decades (7). Also, self immolators have been mostly young Buddhist monks who were born after the economic reforms of 1976, at a time of relative material welfare. Despite this, they perceive in their social space a restriction on their freedom (5).\nSo the government\u00b4s strategy of development and modernization projects may not be the solution, but one of the causes of these problems, in a society with strong ancestral cultural values and community effervescence, a case of a \u201cproud primitive society\u201d. As Fischer (8) points out, based on interviews with Chinese government officials in the region, despite that the economic strategies had been successful, political stability policies had been a total failure, which demonstrates the complexity of the phenomenon. The roots of the claims are based on ethnic and nationalist demands in opposition to the legitimacy of the state authority, which is not limited to the domain of politics, but embraces the wider field of religion and cultural practices (9).\nAt the same time, the obsessive securitization in the region has created an environment in which collective acts of resistance are virtually impossible. But it is precisely this \u201cstable\u201d environment sought by the state that has produced self-immolation as a form of recurring protest (1). These acts require little planning and are virtually impossible to stop. At the same time, they convey an unmistakable message of resistance. It is the most dramatic way to talk when everything else is muted (10). In addition, self-immolation makes impossible the punishment: the perpetrator cannot be reached by the long arms of the feared security forces (11). Thus, in a highly symbolic act, self-immolations are both a sign of protest and a demonstration of the limitations of the State (9). The body on fire, often covered in barbed wire to avoid arrest, can neither be regulated, dispossessing the State from his monopoly of law and violence, in an act of rebellion that seeks to generate empathy and conscience without harm to others.\nNone of this means, however, that the monks who have self immolated have obtained a religious recognition for their actions. Buddha, after all, was opposed to any kind of murder, including suicide (12). The Vinaya, regulatory moral framework of Buddhism, contain clear sanctions against taking one \u2018s life. This entails certain contradiction with stories where, in his many lives, Buddha himself gave his flesh, blood and body shape as an illustration of impermanence, achieving the highest state of Buddhahood (13). From this conception, being the religion a social phenomenon rather than an individual one (Drukheim/Mauss), auto-immolations would be acts of sacrifice, offering the body for the benefit of others. Pain is not only an expression of despair or resistance, but its presence suggests a kind of virtuous action. Immolations thus complicate the model of nonviolence and violence as immutable and distinct categories (14).\nBut the monks being the main protagonists of this story may have to do not so much with religious issues, but with the social division in these societies, where the spiritual guidance of the monks is important as a social and political reference (15). This represents a difference from other Buddhist societies, where one can observe greater separation between the magical/religious empowerment of these figures and their political representation (16). In Tibetans case, the status of being a monk represents an institution within the order of the society (Fortes, Evans-Pritchard, Mauss), strengthened by the diffuse power of the social and symbolic capital of being seen as \u201cgreat men\u201d (Godelier). In this sense, their immolation in protest is not directly channeled as a tribute to religion or the realization of virtue, but mainly has to do with the idea that clerics have the responsibility to represent the aspirations, and now the hardships, of the society (7). From an anthropological point of view, the social is as important in this case as the religious, because the function of self-sacrifice is understood as a fusion of religious and political duty. Self-immolations are an expression of religion as a symbol (Geertz, 1966), but also as assuming a function within society (Radcliffe-Brown).\nAs for the origins of this tradition, it is a moot point whether the idea was inspired by the recent success of the self-immolation in Tunisia in 2010, or the famous cases of self-immolation by monks in Vietnam in the 1960s, or more likely, by the fairly common practice of self-immolation as a political protest in India (8). Others argue that, ironically, sacrifice as a political act is something that the Chinese Communists would have introduced into Tibet (7). Speaking strictly, although the spirit of sacrifice is held in Tibetan Buddhism, there is no tradition of self immolate in the history of Tibet (8); this is a strange concept that Tibetans now have appropriated from the language of resistance of the Communist Party. Moreover, from the anthropological point of view of translation, there is no equivalent Tibetan term to the English word \u201csacrifice\u201d. Tibetans have difficulty finding appropriate terminology to express this concept, having no easy way to convey the feelings that embodies (5) (7), so we can see here a clear case of the cultural process of contact (Herskovitz) or diffusion in the form of influences coming from other societies.\nRegrettably, such acts are unlikely to gain concessions from the Chinese authorities. In an authoritarian system, the cycle of resistance and repression is an inevitable consequence of the inflexibility of the regime. At the same time, for many in the Chinese civil society, there is no surprise in the death of Tibetans. It simply reaffirms its barbarity, enabling the State to use repression \u201cagainst uncivilized populations\u201d (7). And so, while the cult of stability makes any other form of protest almost impossible in Tibet, the problems that drive the protests -religious oppression, the second \u2013 class status of Tibetans, the exploitation of the poors- have not disappeared. This practice has now acquired a deep cultural, social and religious significance as a form of self-sacrifice for a higher cause. Because of that, the contribution of anthropologists in understanding the phenomenon can be very useful in helping to stop these acts and to unite the parties.\nReferences (ISO norms)\nCarrico, Kevin.

Greek MPs set for historic vote on FYROM name change\nMPs in Greece are tonight (Thursday) set to vote on a controversial name change for their northern neighbours, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.\nAthens and Skopje agreed to end a longstanding dispute over FYROM\u2019s name in the summer.\nSome people in Greece are upset over FYROM because they think it implies Skopje has territorial claims over the northern Greek region of Macedonia, which shares a name with the country over the border.\nMacedonian MPs approved the deal earlier this month and now it is the turn of their Greek counterparts.\nLeftist Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is thought to have enough support to get it through parliament.\nBut latest opinion polls show two-thirds of respondents were against the agreement.\nThere were violent clashes in Athens on Sunday as protesters demonstrated against the name change.\n2. Bid to rescue boy, 2, from Spanish well \u2018reaches final stage\u2019\nA mission to save a toddler who fell down a well in Spain 11 days ago has reached its final stage, a miner involved with the rescue told Euronews.\nSantiago Suarez said rescuers were preparing to descend a shaft parallel to the well and then tunnel their way to the two-year-old boy.\nBut, he added, the presence of hard rock is likely to slow progress.\nThe boy, Julen, fell down the borehole shaft as his family walked through a private estate in Totalan, Malaga, on January 13. There have been no signs of life since.\n3. Carlos Ghosn \u2018has resigned\u2019 as Renault chief\nCarlos Ghosn has resigned as chairman and chief executive of French carmaker Renault, according to France\u2019s finance minister.\nBruno Le Maire told Bloomberg Television at the World Economic Forum in Davos that Ghosn stepped down on Wednesday evening.\nGhosn was dismissed as Nissan chairman in November amid allegations of financial misconduct.\nRenault and Nissan have been in a strategic partnership for nearly two decades.\nRenault\u2019s board was set to meet on Thursday morning to decide on a replacement for Ghosn.\n4. \u2018The UK\u2019s aerospace sector stands at the precipice\u2019\nAirbus has warned it might shift wing-building out of Britain if London\u2019s divorce deal with Brussels hits the rocks.\n\"The UK's aerospace sector now stands at the precipice,\" CEO Tom Enders said in a video released on Airbus' website. \"If there is a no-deal Brexit, we at Airbus will have to make potentially very harmful decisions for the UK.\"\nThe firm employs 14,000 people in Britain but some critics have cast doubt on whether Airbus would follow through on its threats.\n\"Please don\u2019t listen to the Brexiteers\u2019 madness which asserts that, because we have huge plants here, we will not move and we will always be here. They are wrong,\" Enders said.\n\"Of course, it is not possible to pick up and move our large UK factories to other parts of the world immediately. However, aerospace is a long-term business and we could be forced to re-direct future investments in the event of a no-deal Brexit. And make no mistake there are plenty of countries out there who would love to build the wings for Airbus aircraft.\"\nIt comes amid a deadlock in the UK parliament over Brexit with MPs having defeated Theresa May\u2019s EU divorce deal last week.\n5. 'No backstop, no deal,' says European Parliament Brexit group\nThe European Parliament's Brexit group said on Thursday it would not approve an agreement on Britain's departure from the European Union that did not contain a \"backstop\" provision to avoid a hard Irish border.\nIt comes as British Prime Minister Theresa May looks at ways of appeasing some Conservative MPs who voted down her Brexit deal last week because the backstop could keep the UK in the EU indefinitely.\nThe parliament's Brexit Steering Group, chaired by Guy Verhofstadt, \"reiterated that the withdrawal agreement is fair and cannot be re-negotiated. This applies especially to the backstop ... without such an 'all-weather' backstop-insurance, the European Parliament will not give its consent to the withdrawal agreement.\"",

The identification process is being overseen by a British coroner.\nVast numbers of British police have also been dedicated to the investigation, with hundreds at airports in the UK interviewing people returning from Tunisia, and 16 officers, forensic experts and family liaison staff now at the scene in Sousse expected to be joined by reinforcements.\nSecurity will also be increased in the UK, particularly at high profile events such as Wimbledon.\nPolice sources have described the operation as the biggest anti-terrorism deployment since the 2005 bombings in London.\nTunisian police are said to be looking for accomplices to gunman Seifeddine Rezgui, who was shot dead following his deadly attack on sunbathers at the Spanish-owned resort. Rezgui\u2019s father and roommates have all been questioned, although there is no indication that they had any advance knowledge of his plan. Responsibility for the attack has been claimed by the Islamic State.\nAmongst those confirmed to have died are three men from the same family: 44-year-old Adrian Evans, from Tipton in the West Midlands, who was killed alongside his father, Patrick Evans, and his 19-year-old nephew Joel Richards, a student from the Black Country town of Wednesbury.\nAlso believed to be amongst the victims are one Irish national, one Belgian and one German, as well as Tunisian citizens.\nThe Tunisian government has deployed army reservists to various resorts to increase security in a country where 15 per cent of the GDP relies on tourism.\nPrevious articleSofa & Sofa has the most innovative styles to suit your lifestyle\nNext articleTragic weekend for swimmers in Spain",

        "title": "Additional Standard Tax Deduction for the Blind: A Description and Assessment - EveryCRSReport.com",
        "raw_content": "Additional Standard Tax Deduction for the Blind: A Description and Assessment\nMay 7, 2008 RS20555\nIn the Revenue Act of 1943, a special $500 income tax deduction was first permitted the blind for expenses directly associated with readers and guides. This deduction for expenses evolved to a $600 personal exemption in the Revenue Act of 1948 so that the blind did not forfeit use of the standard deduction and so that the tax benefit could be reflected directly in the withholding tables. Congress attempted to target the tax benefit to low- and moderate-income blind individuals by replacing the tax exemption with an additional standard deduction amount with passage of the Tax Reform Act of 1986.\nThe extra standard deduction amount provides tax relief that recognizes the increased costs of living and associated costs of employment for blind taxpayers. Since many blind taxpayers have low incomes, they are able to use the additional standard deduction amount provided under current tax law. However, this extra amount arguably does not meet the tax tests of horizontal equity and effectiveness. The provision has not been extended to other taxpayers with handicapping conditions because of administrative difficulties and the loss of additional federal tax revenues. This report will be updated in future years to reflect changes in law or in the additional standard deduction amount that is adjusted for inflation.\nMay 7, 2008 (RS20555)\nFederal income tax laws provide certain allowances for the blind, the most important of which is the additional standard deduction amount allowed to legally blind taxpayers. Other special tax allowances are included in other provisions of the law, such as the exception from the 2% floor for deducting employee business expenses for impairment-related work expenses of handicapped employees.1 Only the additional standard deduction amount for the blind, however, is discussed in this short report.\nUnder present law in 2008, individuals in general are entitled, for income tax purposes, to deduct from their income in lieu of itemizing deductions a standard deduction amount of $5,450 if single; $8,000 as head of household; or $10,900 if married and filing jointly. In addition, each married taxpayer is allowed an additional standard deduction amount of $1,050 if he/she is at least 65 years of age or blind; if both blind and 65 years of age or older they are each allowed an additional standard deduction amount of $2,100. (Thus, the total added deduction for a married couple, both of whom are blind and over 65, would be $4,200). If single or filing as head of household the additional standard deduction amount is $1,350 for age or blindness, and $2,700 for both. However, the additional standard deduction amount is not allowable for a dependent who is 65 years old or blind. The forgoing amounts are subject to adjustments for inflation. An additional standard deduction for other forms of handicap is currently not allowed by federal tax laws.\nLegislative History and Rationale\nThe advocates of the special tax provisions for blind taxpayers justify it on the basis of need. They argue that blind persons incur certain expenses that sighted persons normally would not incur. For example, they say the blind often incur taxi fares to go shopping or to their place of employment whereas sighted persons may walk or take a less expensive form of transportation. Further, advocates say, those who are blind cannot mow their lawn, make many necessary home repairs, or perform all their own house cleaning. Consequently, blind persons pay for these services that would ordinarily be performed by those with sight. An employed blind person will frequently live near their place of employment, which may result in a higher rent than if he/she could live elsewhere. Thus, it was the incurring of additional expenses on account of blindness that was recognized when a special tax concession was first allowed blind taxpayers.\nInitially, in introducing the provision as a deduction in the Revenue Act of 1943, the House Ways and Means Committee stated \"the committee has provided for a special deduction of $500 from the gross income of every blind person in order to cover the expenses resulting directly from blindness, such as the cost of readers and guides. This would relieve many blind persons of any tax whatsoever, and would reduce the tax of other blind persons.\"2 In a later tax bill (which became the Revenue Act of 1948) the deduction was changed to an additional personal exemption amount of $600 on the basis of these same considerations. In discussing the change, the House Ways and Means Committee noted that blind persons were benefitted by more than the $100 increase in amount. By substituting the exemption for the deduction, blind persons did not forfeit the ability to use the standard deduction. Additionally, as a personal exemption, it was easier to reflect the tax benefit in the income tax withholding tables so that tax relief was provided throughout the year rather than having to wait for a refund after tax filing.3\nThe tax provision for the blind in the Revenue Act of 1948 was incorporated in the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, substantially unchanged. As the personal exemption increased over the years, so too did the amount of the additional exemption provided the blind. The exemption amount increased from $625 in 1970 to $1,080 in 1986.\nA comprehensive revision of the income tax code was made with enactment of the Tax Reform Act of 1986\u2014designed to lead to a fairer, more efficient and simpler tax system. The act broadened the tax base so that tax rates could be lowered by removing the preferential treatment of certain classes of income and expenditures (e.g., capital gains, two-earner wage deduction, personal interest deductions, etc.). Further, the act provided for the repeal of the dividend exclusion, the political contributions credit and the provision of income averaging for all taxpayers. Both the personal exemption amount and the standard deduction amounts were raised, thus reducing the number of taxpayers who would find it advantageous to itemize their deductions. Further, the act repealed the additional personal exemption amount for the blind (and elderly) and in its place instituted an extra standard deduction amount for both blind and/or elderly taxpayers. This additional standard deduction amount is combined with the increased standard deduction provided by the 1986 act.4 Both the standard deduction and additional standard deduction amount for blind and/or elderly taxpayers were indexed for inflation in future years.\nIn general, higher income taxpayers are more likely to itemize while lower and moderate income taxpayers more frequently use the standard deduction. The personal exemption is typically of greater value to higher income than lower income taxpayers.5 Thus, Congress in the 1986 tax act effectively targeted the tax benefits to lower and moderate income elderly and blind taxpayers by substituting an additional standard deduction amount for the additional personal exemption permitted under prior law.\nAdvocates of the blind justify special tax treatment on the basis of need. It is argued that the blind face increased living costs. These costs arise from the need to hire readers and guides, etc. The blind are also frequently faced with additional expenses associated with earning income. These expenses are typically in the form of cab fares, specialized work equipment, etc. To the extent that the blind make these expenditures, it affects their ability to pay income taxes. Thus, the extra standard deduction amount can be seen as an attempt to compensate the blind for these added living and business expenses. However, as discussed below, it may also be said that the additional standard deduction accorded the blind does not meet horizontal equity principles in that all taxpayers with equal net incomes are not treated equally.\nMany blind individuals have low incomes. Low-income taxpayers most frequently use the standard deduction while higher income taxpayers are more likely than low-income individuals to itemize deductible items. Thus, as an additional standard deduction amount, this tax benefit for the blind is more likely to go to lower or moderate income blind taxpayers than higher income blind taxpayers who are more likely to itemize deductions.\nHowever, if this tax provision is truly based on need, then one objection opponents offer is that the provision does not offer equivalent treatment to other taxpayers with different handicapping conditions who may be in as much need of tax relief. For, just as the blind often incur special expenses due to their blindness, many other handicapped persons (e.g. amputees, learning disabled, hearing impaired, etc.) also incur special expenses due to their individual impairments. Some of the special expenditures made by the blind are frequently the same types of expenditures made by those with other handicapping conditions (i.e., travel costs to work or home, upkeep and repair services). Further, like the blind, the handicapped as a class usually have low incomes.\nIt has been suggested that equity may not be the best tool to measure the merits of the additional standard deduction for blind taxpayers. Rather than equity, the question has been raised as to its effectiveness (that is, does the added standard deduction amount aid those needing tax relief?). The provision fails the effectiveness test since some low-income blind individuals, who already would be exempt from tax without the benefit of the additional standard deduction amount, receive no benefit. While these individuals are the most in need of financial assistance, they receive no benefit from the tax concession. Additionally, the provision does not benefit those blind taxpayers who itemize deductions (for example, those with large medical expenditures). Moreover, the value of the additional standard deduction amount is of greater benefit to higher rather than lower income taxpayers (in those cases where the taxpayer does not itemize). As mentioned in the brief summary of the law, a taxpayer that supports a blind dependent may not claim the additional standard deduction amount. Some believe that a taxpayer who incurs additional expenses on behalf of a blind dependent has as much justification to claim the additional standard deduction amount as that dependent.\nQuestions arise as to why the provision for the blind has not spread to those taxpayers with other serious handicapping conditions. The legislative history indicates that administrative reasons initially precluded the addition of other handicapping provisions.6 Critics have argued that if it is appropriate and desirable to provide a subsidy to the lower-income blind, then similar subsidies should also be provided to other lower-income groups facing equivalent handicaps. Some have supported a shift from tax provisions to a grant program, since under a grant program, the revenue costs are known and benefits precisely targeted with conclusive rules and regulations. (However, a grant results in taxable income to the recipient unless specifically excluded by statute.)\nThe current provision leads to pressures for tax concessions from other similar groups. However, the passage of an act, which allows many other handicaps the same tax advantage as the blind, would result in a substantial loss of revenue to the federal government. In general, enforcement procedures under the congressional budget process may raise significant hurdles to the consideration of legislation that would cause an additional revenue loss that is not accommodated by the annual budget resolution. Even so, legislation proposing such a revenue loss may be considered without triggering procedural sanctions if it is supported by majorities in the House and Senate sufficient to waive the enforcement procedures. Additional enforcement procedures based in statute (i.e., the \"pay-as-you-go\" requirement and limits on discretionary spending) effectively expired at the end of FY2002, and Congress and the President have not agreed on whether to renew them. Although it is true that more attention is focused on tax expenditures than in the past, they are still seen by many as \"hidden\" expenditures. A disadvantage of tax expenditures is that since they are not acted upon in the normal budgetary process, they are able to grow in revenue size and are not subject to periodic review. The Joint Committee on Taxation estimated that the revenue cost over the five fiscal years of 2007-2011 will be $8.9 billion for those who use the additional standard deductions available to the elderly and blind.\nA footnote in the General Explanation of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 (H.R. 3838, 99th Congress; Public Law 99-514) prepared by the Staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation defines such \"expenses of a handicapped individual (as defined in sec. 190(b)(3)) for attendant care services at the individual's place of employment that are necessary for such individual to be able to work, provided such expenses are otherwise deductible under sec. 162.\" For further discussion of the floor on deductibility of employee business expenses see the \"General Explanation ...\" at pages 76-81.\nU.S. Congress, House Committee on Ways and Means, The Revenue Bill of 1943, report to accompany H.R. 3687, H.Rept. 871, 78th Cong., 1st sess. (Washington: GPO, 1943), p. 21.\nU.S. Congress, House Committee on Ways and Means. Revenue Act of 1948, report to accompany H.R. 4790, H.Rept. 1274, 80th Cong., 2nd sess. ( Washington: GPO, 1948), p. 20-21.\nThe higher standard deduction amounts were effective one year earlier (1987) for elderly or blind individuals.\nThe 1986 act provided that beginning in 1988, the personal exemption is reduced (or phased out serially) for high-income taxpayers. The phaseout levels are adjusted for inflation. In the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, P.L. 107-16, a modification provides for a five-year phase-in of the repeal of the personal exemption phase-out beginning in 2006.\nThe question became which handicaps to recognize and if the tax benefit should be scaled (i.e., do you provide the same level of benefit for a taxpayer that has lost one leg as a taxpayer that has lost both arms or all limbs?). At what point do you provide a tax benefit for those with hearing loss, etc.?",

Educated in Naples by Jesuits, he later studied law and philosophy (1560\u20131562) at the Univ. of Padua. Rinaldo (1562), a chivalric poem, brought him fame when he was 18; after completing his studies at the Univ. of Bologna, he received an invitation (1565) to join the brilliant court of the Este at Ferrara, where he remained for many years. There he wrote beautiful lyric poems, the charming pastoral play Aminta (completed 1573), and the first version (completed 1575) of his masterpiece, Jerusalem Delivered (Ital. Gerusalemme liberata ), an epic of the exploits of Godfrey of Boulogne during the First Crusade. A victim of his own religious scruples, he submitted the epic to literary and church authorities, whose judgment was unduly severe. He began the difficult task of revising it to suit his critics and to assuage his own doubts. He was frustrated by conditions at court, where he felt unappreciated by his patrons and envied by his colleagues. Psychologically unstable, he developed a persecution complex that led to a fit of violence in 1579. He was confined, first in a convent, then intermittently (1579\u201387) in a hospital, while controversy concerning his work continued. A complete version of his epic was published without his permission in 1581. In his last years, he lived with the Gonzagas in Mantua and then wandered restlessly throughout Italy searching for ideal working conditions at other courts. He died at a monastery in Rome shortly before he was to have been crowned poet laureate. Tasso's Jerusalem Delivered was lauded both as the embodiment of lyric sentiment and as the greatest poem of the Counter-Reformation. The religious motif is strong, the subplots of love and adventure are well developed, and chivalric exploits are recounted in a majestic classical style. The work had enormous influence on English poets, especially Milton. The legend of Tasso's doomed love for Leonora d'Este was immortalized in works by Byron, Goethe, and others and made Tasso a romantic hero. There are several good translations of Tasso's works.\nSee studies by C. P. Brand (1965), G. Getto (1968), and J. A. Kates (1983).",

        "raw_content": "Back pain is a common symptom that many people deal with. Without relief, even the most minimal of tasks can feel like they require a herculean effort when suffering through back pain. There are a few different causes for this type of discomfort but the main culprit for many is a badly chosen mattress. When it comes to finding the perfect mattress, the large array of options available can make the process a daunting one.\nThe main cause of back pain is sleeping on a surface that doesn\u2019t provide adequate support. In the lower back, the lumbar spine is curved into a C-shape. When that curve starts getting pushed out of shape by pressure on the bones and muscles in the back, it can cause chronic pain. Support of the shoulders and head are also important because pressure in that area can lead to upper back pain, neck pain, and even cause headaches. Choosing a mattress that provides support to the hips, shoulders, and neck is important for eliminating the pressure that causes pain\nThere are many types of mattresses. The most common is the innerspring mattress, which consists of metal coil springs between two sheets of padding. There are variations in material, price, and firmness but it is considered the most durable and long lasting mattress. However, they\u2019re known to be a contributor to back pain since some types of innerspring mattresses don\u2019t provide the right support.\nMemory foam mattresses are growing in popularity. They are made of layers of foam that mold to the contour of the sleeper and eases stress on the pressure points. Due to the ability to mold to whomever is laying on them, foam mattresses are very good for support. However, they are much more expensive than innerspring mattresses and sadly, do not last as long before needing to be replaced. Recently, there has also been some worry about the chemicals used in the production of foam mattresses and the effect it may have on those who are in contact with them on a nightly basis.\nAlthough not as popular, latex mattresses have received some attention for being able to relieve back pain. They are made with either synthetic or natural rubber and are very firm. Depending on what the cause of the back pain is, latex mattresses may be helpful but since they are so firm, there\u2019s also a chance that they may cause back pain due to putting too much pressure on the hips and shoulders.\nIn contrast to latex mattresses, a waterbed tends to lack any firmness. Chambers within the waterbed may be added in the design to give a little more firmness to the bed. Although waterbeds don\u2019t provide enough support to prevent back pain, the effect of weightlessness and the ability to be heated may be helpful to people suffering from back pain due to another cause, such as an injury.\nA mattress that is too soft can cause pain because it doesn\u2019t offer enough support to the sleeper while a mattress that is too firm can put too much pressure on the body and also cause pain. The ideal mattress for most people is something in between. A medium-firm mattress with at least an inch and a half of padding on the top is considered to be the best for preventing soreness and back pain. However, everyone has different needs when it comes to support and those needs change with age so fully trying out a mattress by laying on it for five to ten minutes before buying one is the best way to determine which one is best suited.",

They spoke to 285 business leaders and board members around the country and found that the overwhelming majority of them believe that corporations were not doing enough to add more women to their board of directors on their own.\nThe reasons given for supporting the bill boiled down to either money or fairness. Per the survey:\n42% supported the bill because diverse companies are more profitable.\n38% supported the bill because women have proven they are equal and should be given positions they deserve.\n12% believe quotas are the only way to ensure diversity.\nMen aren\u2019t onboard with forced diversity. While nearly 80% of women surveyed supported SB 826, only 40% of men did. The bill also did not have bipartisan support among respondents\u2014fewer than 50% of Republicans surveyed supported the bill, while nearly 85% of surveyed Democrats did.\nThat said, the main reason people didn\u2019t support the bill (37%) wasn\u2019t because they disagreed with the premise, but because it seemed like government overreach.

        "raw_content": "\"The Relative Role of Debt in Bank Resiliency and Resolvability\"\u2013 Remarks by FDIC Vice Chairman Thomas M. Hoenig. Presented to the Peterson Institute for International Economics, Washington, DC.\nIn the bankruptcy reorganization of a failed commercial business, the conversion of debt into equity or some revised debt instrument is often the protocol. This has long proven useful in transitioning a failed business back into a productive enterprise. However, mandating increased levels of debt as part of a broad, prescribed resolution strategy has potential effects that, paradoxically, may undermine the very financial stability being sought.\nThis may be the case with TLAC. Total Loss\u2013Absorbing Capacity, as set out by the Financial Stability Board, requires large, interconnected banking firms to hold certain levels of long-term debt.1 Its intention is laudable: to improve the resolvability of banking firms to assure that, should they fail, they can be resolved without turning to the taxpayer for help. The proposed U.S. version of TLAC would require global systemically important banks (GSIBs) to maintain TLAC-related debt at the holding company with restrictions on ownership.2 However, in many instances, to meet the proposal's goals, firms would have to not only maintain current levels of debt, but also would have to add debt to their balance sheets.\nIn my remarks today, I will highlight TLAC's effects and suggest that it be used in a more limited and discretionary manner. I will suggest that its use depend on a bank's business model and Title I resolution plan. Such an approach would acknowledge that not all business models are the same and that different resolution strategies might work better for different financial firms \u2013\u2013 and for financial stability.\nResolution Planning and SPOE\nTLAC is a necessary component of the single point of entry (SPOE) resolution strategy that has been proposed but not yet adopted in the United States.3 It therefore is difficult to discuss TLAC without first describing SPOE.\nThe FDIC initially proposed SPOE to facilitate an orderly resolution of a failed financial institution under Title II of the Dodd-Frank Act. Under SPOE, only the top\u2013tier bank holding company of the failed firm would be put into receivership. In theory, the parent firm would have enough long-term debt to both absorb any remaining losses after equity is depleted and to recapitalize subsidiaries so that they could remain well\u2013capitalized and continue operations under a new holding company. The presumption is that this would all be accomplished without causing overwhelming panic and necessitating additional government intervention.\nSince SPOE was first discussed, the concept has migrated and become the principal bankruptcy plan under Title I of the Dodd\u2013Frank Act for all but two of eight U.S. GSIBs.4 The basic theory of SPOE in a bankruptcy reorganization is the same as for SPOE in a FDIC Title II receivership. In this instance, the financial institution would go through bankruptcy without the critical operating subsidiaries themselves becoming insolvent or requiring government support. These operating units could include subsidiary insured banks, broker-dealers, and asset managers.\nResolution Planning and TLAC\nA successful SPOE resolution, under Title I or Title II, assumes sufficient internal long-term debt that can convert to equity in order to effectively recapitalize operating subsidiaries of the holding company following its failure. The Federal Reserve's TLAC proposal further specifies that a clean holding company, with this long\u2013term debt, is required in order to remove obstacles \"to the orderly SPOE resolution\" of a financial institution. In short, the TLAC proposal is designed to require a firm to have sufficient long-term debt to facilitate a SPOE solution both through conversion of current debt and, if need be, added debt.\nAccording to the estimates in the proposal, the GSIBs would have a combined long-term debt requirement of approximately $680 billion. Existing debt issuance would cover much of this amount, but the proposal estimates that there is a shortfall of approximately $100 billion.\nRoughly half of this projected debt shortfall would be met through issuing new debt to replace \"near\u2013eligible\" debt. The remaining half of the shortfall could, according to the proposal, \"then be filled through the issuance of eligible external [long\u2013term debt] in the place of existing deposits or other lower\u2014cost liabilities.\" The impact section of the proposal concludes by noting that the aggregate increase in cost of funding, which would come directly out of bank earnings, would be in the range of $680 million to $1.5 billion annually.\nOther estimates find similar results, and firm-specific estimates are quite revealing. For example, Credit Sights findings \"estimate that Wells Fargo has the biggest shortfall at $46 billion, with JPMorgan a distant second at $19 billion, followed by Citigroup at $14 billion, Bank of America at $6 billion and State Street at $2 billion.\"5\nThe proposal affects firms in other ways as well. For example, Wells Fargo and Bank of New York\u2013Mellon do not have large broker-dealers and have not adopted a SPOE resolution strategy in their Title I plans.6 In the second round of reviews of the resolution plans, regulators determined that Wells Fargo had the makings of a credible plan, but under the proposed TLAC rule, the company would have to issue additional long\u2013term debt because its current levels are insufficient to meet the TLAC standard.7 The effect, of course, is to encourage them to adopt a SPOE resolution strategy. Also noteworthy, and ironic, is that the former investment banks in general have TLAC surpluses, as they are more reliant on debt funding than deposit funding.\nTLAC, as it is applied broadly to the industry, would necessarily affect leverage and in some instances place pressure on firms to change their business model. In doing so, it also would encourage the industry and firms to add risks that may be inconsistent with conventional safety and soundness principles or what they would otherwise pursue. As firms issue large amounts of additional, and more expensive, long-term debt and increase their leverage position, such funds must earn commensurately higher returns to meet debt service and avoid default. Such requirements may encourage banks to acquire higher-yielding and higher-risk assets, or expand into non-bank activities, such as broker-dealer operations.8,9\nAlso, while authorities might prefer that firms swap out debt instruments, reduce deposits, or issue additional capital to maintain existing levels of leverage, the companies are likely to attempt to increase leverage to meet added earning demands and maintain returns.10\nAdditionally, in a future recession, if earnings become insufficient to make holding company debt payments (a likely outcome), then regulators would face the prospect of having to allow the transfer of resources out of the bank to avoid default on holding company debt. Remember also that unlike dividends, there can be no suspension of debt interest payments. These outcomes would likely weaken the bank and would seem to undermine the principle that the holding company should be a source of strength for the insured bank.\nTo appreciate the potential effects that TLAC might have, it is useful to look at the history of trust\u2013preferred securities (TRuPS) at banks prior to the last crisis. At that time, regulators permitted firms to issue these instruments at the holding company and to include them as part of their capital. Although TRuPS are essentially long\u2013term debt instruments, it was argued that they would be available to help absorb losses in a crisis, relieving the firms from having to hold equity. As the crisis unfolded, the weaknesses of TRuPS revealed themselves as firms often had to remove resources from the operating banks in an effort to move cash to the holding company and avoid default. TRuPS placed significant pressures on insured banks to continue making large debt\u2013service payments which most certainly exacerbated losses to the banking system. As it turns out, Congress wisely eliminated the use of these instruments as part of industry capital when it passed Dodd\u2013Frank.\nFinally, the TLAC proposal, while increasing leverage, offers no assurance that the amount of debt required would prove sufficient to avoid a failure or panic. There is currently a debate about how much TLAC is enough to both absorb losses after equity is extinguished and also provide enough additional equity to assure the operating subsidiaries are well capitalized. The greater the possible losses, the greater amount of TLAC required, and of course firms want to hold less TLAC while some regulators judge the need for more.\nThus, a blanket rule mandating TLAC \u2013\u2013 which requires financial firms to issue substantial additional debt and which increases the leverage in an already highly-leveraged industry \u2013\u2013 should only be embraced with great reluctance. The long\u2013term debt requirement would place added earnings demands on the banking system and could be counter\u2013productive, especially during a period of financial stress.\nBoth regulatory and banking professionals should be extremely cautious in this regard as it is paradoxical to suggest that the best way to manage the effects of excess leverage and financial vulnerability is to require more leverage, potentially raising financial vulnerability. At a minimum, a guiding principle for TLAC when addressing the question of resolution should be that it have a neutral effect on the leverage position of the firm and the industry.\nTLAC is closely tied to a SPOE resolution strategy to manage the failure of a GSIB. But there are other strategies that might also work and be less reliant on debt For example, in the U.S. an alternative strategy for certain banking firms could be a bridge bank in which the FDIC is appointed receiver of the insured depository institution while the holding company, and possibly some of its other subsidiaries, declare bankruptcy. The FDIC would place some assets and liabilities of the old bank in the receivership (bad bank) and the rest in the new bridge bank (good bank). This strategy would allow the critical operations of the bank to continue following failure, as the FDIC or its designee operates the bank until it is wound down, sold, or spun-off in accordance with the least cost to the taxpayer requirements. This solution could require less debt or may encourage more equity, depending on a host of factors. The point is that a one-size-fits-all solution is not necessarily the best outcome for the industry or the public.\nThe TLAC proposal would apply to GSIBs with little differentiation among them. Long-term debt dominates the proposal and very little allowance is given for equity held on the balance sheet. This seems short-sighted, since greater amounts of equity increase liquidity and reduce the likelihood of failure. Therefore, there might be the opportunity to reduce the long-term debt requirement based on the firm's resolution strategy and reliance on equity and debt for funding.\nWhat this suggests ultimately is that the Title I resolution planning process should be the sole mechanism to define the resources and mechanism necessary to assure resolution without public support. Each firm and its regulators should identify debt and equity requirements that have a neutral effect on the firm and the industry's leverage positions, while also allowing for bankruptcy without public support should a firm fail. The process also could be used as the planning tool should, for whatever reason, Title II be the ultimate resolution outcome.\nI would argue that such an approach is more judicious than requiring a sweeping TLAC rule. Under Dodd\u2013Frank, each Title I plan is prepared in detail by management and reviewed and approved by supervisors. Each living will is intended to be based on the specific business model of each firm and the bankruptcy strategy that would work best for that firm. Thus, instead of applying a blanket long-term debt requirement to facilitate one resolution strategy, regulators could use the existing Title I planning process to tailor long\u2013term debt levels to a firm's business model, capital structure, and resolution strategy, better assuring a private sector resolution should it be needed. And finally, as I have long urged, each firm's Title I plan, particularly its reliance on debt versus equity within the plan, should be made public, as this would enhance the market's role in assuring the right balance within the plans.\nIn bankruptcy, the conversion of standard debt is often part of workable reorganization strategy. But banking authorities should be cautious before demanding increased levels of debt for individual banking firms or encouraging an increase in the effective leverage of an industry.\nIt is difficult to accept that more leverage solves the destabilizing problem of leverage. If additional debt is useful to a specific firm, the amount should be determined on a firm\u2013by\u2013firm basis as part of the living will program, with the balance between debt and equity carefully judged. During this process, banking companies would have to show that debt could be successfully used in bankruptcy without weakening balance sheets or ultimately costing the taxpayer money to resolve a failure.\nAdding leverage to the banking system in the hope that this will prove to be stabilizing is a gamble. There is considerable evidence that strategies that encourage increasing leverage within the banking industry have in past crises only exacerbated losses. The goal is resilience and, if necessary, resolution without government or taxpayer assistance. That is best achieved not by increasing leverage, but by requiring the right balance of debt and added equity for each firm and the industry as a whole.\nThe views expressed are those of the author and not necessarily those of the FDIC.\nThomas M. Hoenig is the Vice Chairman of the FDIC and the former President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

As of this date, the FDIC has not adopted this strategy.\n4 Public versions of the resolution plans are available at http://www.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/resolution-plans.htm.\n5 https://www.creditsights.com/id/184763\n6 Public versions of the resolution plans of Wells Fargo and Bank of New York\u2013Mellon: http://www.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/resolution-plans/wells-fargo-2g-20150701.pdf and http://www.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/resolution-plans/bk-ny-mellon-3g-20150701.pdf\n8 This argument is often offered as a case against requiring more equity. However, equity is far less demanding on earnings, dividends and cash flow than fixed debt payments, especially under stress.\n9 There is already some evidence that Wells Fargo is beginning to expand its investment banking activities: http://www.wsj.com/articles/wells-fargo-warms-up-to-risk-1428877356.\n10 See FT, January 14, 2016, \"Basel Committee softens new rules on bank capital,\" Laura Noonan, Mark Arnold and Caroline Binham.",

The housing goals measure the extent that acquired member assets programs of the FHLBanks are serving low- and very low-income families and families residing in low-income areas.\nThe housing goals for the FHLBanks are modeled on with the single-family housing goals for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (according to the statutory intent of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008) but they take into account the unique characteristics of the FHLBanks. In addition, the Federal Home Loan Bank Act required each of the Federal Home Loan Banks to establish an Affordable Housing Program, and they have done so.\nThe FHLBanks purchase loans from their members under the acquired member assets program, a whole loan mortgage purchase program.\nThe FHLBanks\u2019 housing goals performance is based on single-family whole loans purchased through their acquired member assets programs. In 2017, all of the 11 FHLBanks purchased whole loans through those programs.\nFrom 1990, when the AHP was authorized, through 2017, the FHLBanks have awarded approximately $5.8 billion in funding, supporting approximately 865,000 housing units. On November 20, 2018 FHFA issued a final rule amending its regulation on the FHLBanks' Affordable Housing Program.\nIn 2017, the FHLBanks issued approximately $4.6 billion in Community Investment Program advances for housing projects and almost $97.0 million for economic development projects.\nCommunity Investment Cash Advance Program\nIn 2017, the FHLBanks issued approximately $3.8 billion in Community Investment Cash Advance advances for such projects as commercial, industrial, manufacturing, social services, and public facilities.\nRead more about the Federal Home Loan Banks' affordable housing activities.\nThe Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, as amended by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, requires the setting of annual housing goals for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the monitoring of performance in achieving these goals.

Many people are not entirely clear as to what a slip and fall accident really is. Essentially, slip and fall cases involve a party falling and being injured on the property of another. This property can be owned by an individual or it can be a commercially-owned property.\nRequirements for Personal Injury Claims\nIt is important to remember, however, that just falling on someone else\u2019s property is not enough to make a case. It must be proven that there was a valid defect on the property, such as unexpected water in a walkway or excessive ice, for instance. It must be shown that that the owner knew \u2013 or should have known \u2013 about the dangerous condition and failed to act. This can be difficult to prove, which is why it is essential that you have the guidance of a New York personal injury lawyer assisting you with your slip and fall cases.\nSteps to Take if You Slip and Fall\nIf you experience a slip and fall accident, it will be helpful to your case if you do several things. If you have fallen because of uneven pavement, for instance, take pictures. If someone saw you fall, get a statement from them, including their name and identification information.\nIf you slipped on water while on a commercial property, speak with the owner or manager right away. File an accident report if possible, and be sure you take a copy with you. If you feel that you need medical attention, call for assistance right away. If there is an employee nearby, ask where the water came from, and get their name and address. All of these items of information can become very important in slip and fall cases.\nContact Schwartzapfel Lawyers P.C. for Your Legal Needs\nIf you have been involved in a slip and fall accident and have been injured, call Schwartzapfel Lawyers P.C. for assistance at 1-877-737-4806 or fill out our online contact form to get started.

        "raw_content": "Globalization's Blowback\nBefore casting the blame for our environmental ills on countries like China, we would do well to reflect on who is truly responsible.\nBy Alex Jensen / localfutures.org\nPhoto credit: Public Health Watch (source URL: https://publichealthwatch.wordpress.com/2015/04/24/study-long-term-exposure-to-air-pollution-linked-to-brain-damage/)\nA recent study of air pollution in the western United States made a startling finding: despite a 50 percent drop over the past 25 years in US emissions of smog-producing chemicals like nitrogen oxides (NOx), smog actually increased during that period in the rural US West \u2013 even in such \u2018pristine\u2019 environments as Yellowstone National Park. Most of this increase was traced to \u201cthe influx of pollution from Asian countries, including China, North and South Korea, Japan, India, and other South Asian countries.\u201d[1] That\u2019s because over the same period that NOx emissions declined in the US, they tripled in Asia as a whole.[2] In media reports of the study, China and India are described as the \u201cworst offenders\u201d of this fugitive \u201cAsian pollution\u201d.[3]\nLeft only with these findings, a reasonable conclusion would be that the US has become more environmentally enlightened in recent decades, while Asia \u2013 particularly \u2018developing\u2019 Asia \u2013 is a veritable eco-reprobate, sacrificing not only its own but global airsheds to choking pollution. The new, anti-environmental EPA director, Scott Pruitt, recently expressed this view in explaining why the US should exit the Paris Climate Accord: \u201c[China and India] are polluting far more than we are.\u201d[4]\nA similar study of global air pollution drift in 2014, focusing on China and the US, made comparable findings, but included an important factor missing from the more recent study: production for export. Among other things, the scholars of the older study asked how much of the Chinese air pollution drifting to the Western US was occasioned specifically in the production of exports for world markets (including the top destination for Chinese manufactures, the US.)\nThe answer? In 2006, up to 24% of sulfate concentrations over the western United States were generated in the Chinese production of goods for export to the US.[5] Applying these findings to the more recent study, it\u2019s likely that a significant percentage of the Asian nitrogen oxides now choking the US West were also emitted in the production of goods destined for the US.\nIn other words, it\u2019s meaningless to speak of \u201cAsian pollution\u201d in this context. Though the pollution was emitted in Asia, it properly belongs to the country/ies on whose behalf and at whose behest it was produced. Even more accurately, the pollution finally belongs to the transnational corporations (TNCs) who are the real drivers and beneficiaries not only of offshoring, but also of insatiable consumerism through marketing and obsolescence.\nEconomic globalization has enabled the manic scouring of the world by TNCs for the most \u2018liberal\u2019 (read: unregulated) environments in which to locate production facilities \u2013 the places where expenses can be minimized and profits maximized. Since the biggest drags on corporate profiteering come from taxes, environmental regulations, and decent labor protections and wages, the global relocations of TNCs have largely been towards countries where those costs are lowest, or absent altogether.\nBy increasing their economic power, globalization has also given TNCs the ability to capture governments, which then collude in further reshaping of the world through \u2018free\u2019 trade treaties, supra-national institutions like the IMF, WTO and World Bank, and subsidies and hand-outs to attract and retain big businesses.\nThis entire system of globalization, production and pollution off-shoring is driven by the profit-maximization logic governing transnational corporations, greased along by an ever-growing number of bilateral and global free trade treaties. As economist Martin Hart-Landsberg writes:\n\u201cBeginning in the late 1980s large multinational corporations, including those headquartered in the US, began a concerted effort to reverse declining profits by establishing cross border production networks (or global value chains). This process knitted together highly segmented economic processes across national borders in ways that allowed these corporations to lower their labor costs as well as reduce their tax and regulatory obligations. Their globalization strategy succeeded; corporate profits soared. It is also no longer helpful to think about international trade in simple nation-state terms.\u201d[6]\nChina \u2013 having colluded with global capital in turning itself into the \u2018factory of the world\u2019[7] \u2013 is bearing the lion\u2019s share of globalization\u2019s brunt. But at least China is getting rich as a result, right? Certainly there is an emerging wealthy (and superwealthy) class within China that is profiting from globalization, but it represents a miniscule fraction of the overall population.[8] The mass of the workers who make up China\u2019s labor and \u2018bad-labor\u2019[9] workforce are not benefiting from the country\u2019s conversion into a TNC workshop: labor\u2019s share of China\u2019s GDP has been steadily falling since the late 1990s.[10] For a high-end electronic product like the iPhone, less than 2% (about US$10) of the sales price goes to Chinese workers involved in its production.[11]\nSo who is driving China\u2019s export-oriented boom? Quoting Hart-Landsberg again, \u201cit is not Chinese state enterprises, or even Chinese private enterprises, that are driving China\u2019s exports to the US. Rather it is foreign multinationals, many of which are headquartered in the US, including Apple, Dell, and Walmart\u201d.[12] By 2013, foreign-owned TNCs were responsible for 47% of all Chinese exports (and over 80% of high-tech exports) compared to a mere 11% by Chinese state-owned enterprises.[13] US-based TNCs dominate this control and ownership of exports made in China.\nThe division of profits from Chinese manufactures is also heavily skewed in favor of foreign corporations. For telecommunications equipment, China produced 38% of world exports in 2013, but their share of the profits generated by the sale of those products was just 6%, while US firms captured 59%. Similar imbalances obtain in the case of textiles, where US firms commandeered 46% of the profit share.[14]\nFrom the production, sale and transport of globally-traded commodities, to the shipping of the resulting waste back to China,[15] and now to the profitable \u2018adaptation\u2019 to the ghastly air pollution,[16] TNCs are the main drivers and beneficiaries of this system. In other words, Chinese production and exports are dominated by US and other foreign corporations, and \u2013 like the pollution drifting across the globe \u2013 are not really \u2018Chinese\u2019 at all.[17]\nThis \u2018Asian pollution\u2019 may have an even deeper connection to the American west over which it is now drifting. The world\u2019s largest surface mines are the Black Thunder mines, in the Powder River Basin straddling the Wyoming/Montana border. The mine\u2019s owner and operator, Arch Coal, exports sizable amounts of this government-owned coal to places like China, where it is burned to power the factories that produce American consumer goods.[18]\nIt has been widely noted that American consumers have the largest ecological footprint in the world. While not completely absolving individuals \u2013 especially those on the upper rungs of the socio-economic ladder \u2013 for perpetuating this wasteful system, it can be argued that those large ecological footprints are not entirely their own. The combined effects of aggressive marketing, advertising, and planned product obsolescence[19] mean that the American consumer\u2019s oversized footprint is largely a consequence and reflection of the global power of TNCs. In that sense, it is perhaps more accurate to speak of corporateecological footprints rather than the footprints of nations or individuals.\nGlobalization has meant the distancing of cause and effect, source and sink, so that the pollution and human exploitation caused in the production and transport of goods has remained invisible and opaque to consumers. As Wendell Berry says, \u201cThe global economy institutionalizes a global ignorance, in which producers and consumers cannot know or care about one another, and in which the histories of all products will be lost.\u201d[20]\nUntil now, it seems, corporations\u2019 pollution offshoring was easy enough for Northern policymakers to comfortably ignore \u2013 it was offshored, after all. Of course, global warming already showed that simply exporting polluting production to the global South was meaningless as far as the Earth\u2019s atmosphere and climate were concerned. But local air quality was seen as something distinct, so that the smoggy horrors of industrializing China or India were, for places like North America, still at a \u2018safe\u2019 distance. No more. Now, in addition to the products that magically appear on Western store shelves absolutely shorn of history and provenance, much of the hitherto distant pollution emitted in their production has also arrived. It has come home to roost. Globalization\u2019s blowback.\nAlex Jensen is Project Coordinator at Local Futures.

        "raw_content": "After the announcement of a major healthcare partnership with JP Morgan Chase and Berkshire Hathaway that sent shockwaves, Amazon\u2019s new health insurance initiative for employees is off to a rough start.\nAlcohol affects your mental health more than you may know. See how over drinking can lead to chemical imbalances in your brain and even anxiety and depression.\nMeredith Miller Published: August 31, 2018 Updated: January 30, 2019\nThe rising price of health insurance is making it more difficult for low-income to middle-class Americans to find coverage they can afford. If you are lucky enough to get health insurance through your employer, you may wonder what the fuss is all about. Some companies subsidize the entire cost of their employees\u2019 insurance premiums, giving a false impression that you have free health insurance.\nIn fact, your employer pays heavily for this benefit instead of putting extra money into your salary. For others, their employer contributes so little to their premiums they struggle to afford the coverage.\nIt is probably even more confusing when people in the media throw around words like low-income health insurance or free health insurance. Are these real options? If so, you would probably like to know how to get free health insurance.\nWhat Is Free Health Insurance?\nAs you can probably guess from the name, free health insurance is medical coverage that you don\u2019t have to pay for. In the US, the concept is reserved for individuals with no income, or low-income families who meet certain eligibility requirements. In the rest of the developed world, free medical coverage is an afterthought since the government manages the healthcare system. Outside of the US, healthcare is paid for by taxes. While the US adopted the Affordable Care Act, which is essentially an income based health insurance system, private companies are still the ones selling policies.\nDoes It Exist In The US?\nThis is a tricky question, but yes, there are free health insurance options available to Americans who are eligible. For example, Medicaid, the state-run government healthcare program, may provide free health insurance to low-income individuals and families, or low-cost coverage options. The Children\u2019s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), which also provides free health coverage for children and other eligible individuals.\nYou may also be able to find free health insurance through the marketplace. Through government subsidies, some Americans are finding plans that don\u2019t require them to pay a monthly premium. While the premium is only part of the overall healthcare costs, you still may be required to pay out-of-pocket expenses.\nLastly, if you work for a company with a comprehensive benefits package, you may get your health insurance fully covered. While this technically wouldn\u2019t be considered free coverage since your employer is footing the bill, you would only be responsible for out-of-pocket expenses.\nWho Qualifies For Free Coverage?\nEligibility for either Medicaid or CHIP coverage is dependent on your household income. These income levels vary from state to state, depending on whether your state chose to accept the Federal Government\u2019s Medicaid expansion funds.\nThis expanded form of Medicaid was established as a part of President Obama\u2019s Affordable Care Act (ACA), or Obamacare. All states were expected to expand their Medicaid programs, but a Supreme Court decision gave states the option to opt out, which about half have chosen to do. The income thresholds for Medicaid eligibility are higher in the states that have accepted the expansion.\nIf you are looking for free health insurance, Medicaid may be your only option depending on your age. If you meet the income requirements for your state\u2019s Medicaid program, you can receive coverage for yourself and your dependents without paying any premiums or out-of-pocket costs to access health services. A small number of states are experimenting with charging some form of income-based premium for Medicaid coverage, but generally, the coverage has no associated costs.\nCHIP is free, and also provides low-cost health insurance for families who aren\u2019t eligible for no-cost coverage. CHIP was created to help families who don\u2019t meet Medicaid income requirements still receive affordable health insurance for their children. Certain types of visits are free under CHIP, such as well-child visits to a primary care doctor, but other services may require a small copay. Some states also charge a monthly premium for CHIP coverage. The laws regulating CHIP state that the premium can never cost more than 5% of your household\u2019s annual income.\nHow To Get Free Health Insurance\nIf you want to know how to get free health insurance or believe low-income health insurance may be an option, you can start with your state\u2019s Medicaid agency or apply online to the Obamacare Marketplace. If you apply through the ACA Marketplaces, they will determine if you are eligible for any CHIP or Medicaid coverage, and, if so, forward your application to your state\u2019s Medicaid agency.\nApplying For Free Coverage\nApplying for these free and low-cost health insurance options can be a confusing and stressful process, but luckily, there is free health insurance help available. You can attempt to apply for these options on your own, through a Marketplace application or state Medicaid agency discussed in the section above, or you can work with a licensed agent who can help you navigate the complex world of health insurance.\nFind Affordable Health Insurance Quotes With FirstQuote Health\nIf you are eligible for free health insurance, then you should definitely visit the marketplace or official Medicaid website. However, if you are like the majority of Americans who don\u2019t qualify for free health coverage, you can still find low-cost options through FirstQuote Health.\nFirstQuote Health specializes in helping you find the cheapest health insurance plans in your area at no cost to you. By entering your zip code, and answering a few pre-qualifying questions, you can quickly and easily compare affordable coverage options in your area, or even talk to an experienced agent.

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s Why Plus500 Ltd Is Rising Today, While Premier Foods Plc Slumps\nRupert Hargreaves | Wednesday, 22nd October, 2014 | More on: PFD PLUS\nToday\u2019s small-cap winner is Plus500 (LSE: PLUS), which has seen its shares jump this morning after the company unveiled a better than expected set of third-quarter results.\nIn particular, during the third quarter Plus500\u2019s revenue jumped 23.5% to $56.2m, compared to the second quarter. For the first nine months of the year, the company\u2019s revenues totalled $162.4m, 151% higher than the figure reported a year ago. The company also reported that its customer base had grown by 17% year on year. The group\u2019s user acquisition costs remained flat at $1,005 per client, while the average revenue per user jumped by 10% to $1,290.\nA surprise for\u2026\nA surprise for some\nAlong with today\u2019s trading update, Plus500\u2019s management stated that it is confident that the company will exceed City expectations for full-year profitability.\nHowever, for some this will come as a surprise, as Plus500 has been criticised for its high growth rate, which seems impossible to sustain. Indeed, some believe that the company is in fact a scam, although there is no proof to back up these claims.\nWith Plus500 on target to beat City expectations, the company is likely to offer investors a hefty dividend payout next year. The City already expects Plus500 to support a dividend yield of 6.7%, followed by a payout of 7.3% the year after.\nAdditionally, at present levels and according to current forecasts, Plus500 currently trades at a forward P/E of 10.3. It\u2019s likely that after today\u2019s results City analysts will revise full-year earnings forecasts higher, which will put Plus 500 on an even more attractive earnings multiple.\nAs Plus500 impresses, investors are turning their back on Premier Foods (LSE: PFD).\nPremier Foods is slated to report its third-quarter results on Thursday but investors are already expressing their concern. Indeed, as supermarkets go to war over prices, suppliers like Premier Foods are finding it hard to avoid the squeeze and this is likely to be reflected within results.\nPremier reported a 6.3% decline in second-quarter revenues and analysts are a expecting a further 3% to 4% decline in revenue during the third quarter. This improved performance is expected after favourable weather in August and September, as well as a number of product launches backed up by additional advertising.\nUnfortunately, falling sales are the least of Premier\u2019s worries. After the company completed a radical restructuring earlier this year, raising \u00a3353m, refinancing debt and restructuring its product offering, Premier has failed to turn things around. Since the March refinancing, Premier\u2019s shares have collapsed by more than 50% as investors fret about the company\u2019s trading.\nAhead of Thursday\u2019s results Premier\u2019s shares have fallen by as much as 10% today.\nWhether or not you share my view on the shares in question, I'm confident that you can benefit from reading this new report from The Motley Fool that takes you through the seven key steps you need to take to become a stock market millionaire.\n\"How You Could Retire Seriously Rich\" explains how spending just 20 minutes a month could help you create a portfolio that could bring you closer to financial freedom for life.\nClick here to check out the report -- it's completely free and comes with no further obligation.",

After throwing a league-high 21 interceptions in 2016, Rivers finished with just 10 interceptions last season. Still, his offense sputtered at times, struggling to score points especially during the team's 0-4 start. Rivers said the team's struggles were due to a lack of execution, and one of his priorities during this offseason has been focusing on doing the little things better to improve in 2018. And that means scoring more points. \"Early on, the first five or six weeks of (last) season, there were too many missed plays,\" Rivers said. \"We talked about not scoring enough points those first few games -- we were just not scoring enough points.\" Despite the lack of points, Rivers eclipsed the 50,000-yard passing mark and, for the 10th time, had at least 25 touchdown passes. But protecting the football was the most interesting aspect. Rivers loves to free-style with a riverboat gambler's demeanor, often trying to force passes into windows with little room for error. Of those 10 picks, six of them came in two games, both losses to the Chiefs. One major change this season? Rivers will be without TEs Antonio Gates and Hunter Henry, players he's leaned on heavily in the past.\nRivers remains a top-flight player, but one can't ignore his career-high 21 interceptions to go with his 33 touchdown passes last season. But on the bright side, he finished the season healthy despite playing behind a shoddy front line. Rivers was guilty of forcing attempts to a receiving corps that seemingly changed on a weekly basis. Still, new HC Anthony Lynn must get Rivers back on track. Rivers' strengths are his accuracy and his decision-making. Both were off-kilter in 2016 and need to be addressed. The return of Keenan Allen to join up-and-coming threats like Tyrell Williams, Dontrelle Inman and Hunter Henry (along with returning weapons Antonio Gates and Travis Benjamin) will help. So will the addition of wideout Mike Williams, selected seventh overall in April's draft. Playing in a new city and stadium under a new head coach and coordinator could create some inconsistency, but count on Rivers to be a solid fantasy QB2 with the ability to put up QB1 numbers in any given week.\nRivers led the league in passing attempts (661) and completions (437), and finished second in passing yards. He threw for more than 4,000 yards for the seventh time in his 12-year pro career. The Chargers finished with a 42-percent conversion rate on third downs, good enough for No. 8 in the NFL. Rivers completed 66.1 percent of his passes (No. 7 in the NFL) and finished with 29 passing TDs (tied for No. 12). But for a second straight season, the Chargers struggled to consistently run the football, which forced Rivers to make every critical play on offense with his arm. Rivers was sacked 40 times, eighth-worst in the NFL. The Chargers threw the football 63 percent of the time in 2015, and Rivers threw a league-leading 639 times from shotgun or pistol formation -- that's 100 times more than the No. 2 quarterback on the list. Yes, the team has some solid receiving weapons, and Rivers is a proven commodity; but unless he gets better protection and the rushing attack can take some of the pressure off, Rivers is better suited to a QB2 role for fantasy owners.",

Redick (4) celebrates sinking a 3-point basket during the second half of the team's NBA basketball game against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2016, in Dallas. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez)\nDALLAS (AP) \u2014 Chris Paul had to be reminded that the Los Angeles Clippers are up to an NBA-leading 14 wins.\nThey won't get much easier than this one over the injury-plagued Dallas Mavericks.\nPaul scored 18 points, DeAndre Jordan had 16 points and eight rebounds and the Clippers cruised past the Mavericks 124-104 on Wednesday night in a matchup of the teams with the best and worst records in the NBA.\n\u201cI honestly didn't know we had 14 wins,\u201d said Paul, who added four assists and four steals. \u201cI know we have two losses. But for us, when you've been in this league for a while, it's not necessarily about the wins. It's about how you're playing and about the spirit.\u201d\nDirk Nowitzki scored 10 points on 3-of-10 shooting in 20 minutes in his return for Dallas after the 13-time All-Star missed eight games with a strained left Achilles tendon.\nAustin Rivers added 22 points \u2014 half of them in a meaningless fourth quarter \u2014 for the Clippers. They had a 30-6 run in the second and third quarters on the way to their fourth straight win and 11th in 12 games.\nHarrison Barnes had 22 to lead the Mavericks (2-12). They lost their seventh straight game to match their longest skid since February 1999, during Nowitzki's rookie season.\nDallas, missing its top three point guards and facing a trip to defending champion Cleveland, is off to its worst start since going 1-23 in 1993-94. The Mavericks started the week with a valiant effort in a loss at San Antonio.\n\u201cThis is obviously as tough a week as you can get in the NBA,\u201d Nowitzki said. \u201cSo hopefully we'll fight through this and grind out a win here and there. And when the schedule turns in our favor hopefully get more healthy and run off some wins. That's the only way to do it.\u201d\nBlake Griffin had 12 points, seven assists and six rebounds, all in the first three quarters along with the rest of the starters. The Clippers led by 31 in the third.\nRivers scored 11 points in the first half, including 3-pointers just four seconds apart after he hit one, stole the inbound pass and made another. He was 6 of 7 from long range.\nClippers: LA shot 61 percent in the first half and made 9 of 14 from 3-point range. \u2026 Marreese Speights scored 16 and Jamal Crawford added 15 as the Clippers had a 65-43 advantage in bench scoring. \u2026 Speights had his first double-double with a season-high 12 rebounds. The 16 points matched his season high. \u2026 JJ Redick had 10 points.\nMavericks: PG Deron Williams sat for the eighth time in nine games with a left calf strain. He said he's hopeful to play next week. \u2026 C Andrew Bogut was called for a flagrant foul on a hip-check of Paul as the Clippers point guard drove to the basket. Paul jumped up and went at Bogut, and the pair kept jawing as the referees prepared to review the play. \u2026 Bogut had 12 rebounds and six assists after missing a game with a sore right calf.\nThe Clippers will stay in the Dallas area to attend the Washington Redskins-Dallas Cowboys game on Thanksgiving before continuing a six-game trip Friday at Detroit. Paul is a well-documented fan of the Cowboys, who have the NFL's best record at 9-1. He wore the jersey of rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott, the NFL's rushing leader, on the flight from Los Angeles. Paul has attended Cowboys training camp in the LA area.\nWhile acknowledging that his team has a bevy of Dallas fans, Clippers coach and Chicago Bears fan Doc Rivers had a parting shot for reporters. \u201cI'm not going to call you any of you guys bandwagon, OK, but this is the first time you guys have mentioned the Cowboys in like four years,\u201d Rivers said.\nLOSING THE LUSTER\nThe boos were still there for Jordan, who spurned the Mavericks in free agency in the summer of 2015 after agreeing to join them. But they weren't quite as loud or persistent as the 6-foot-11 center's two visits last season.\nClippers: The visit to the Pistons on the season's longest trip is the first of four straight against Eastern Conference teams. Defending champion Cleveland is the last of those four opponents.\nMavericks: A quick trip to face LeBron James, another Cowboys fan, and the Cavaliers on Friday before home games against New Orleans and San Antonio.",

The Coolmore team sets their fillies for the 1000 Guineas and they're tough to beat come May at Newmarket.\nInterestingly, the 1000 Guineas was named according to its original prize fund. The race was initially worth 1000 Guineas, which is where the Guineas name originates.\nThere has been a good mix of favourites and longshots win the 1000 Guineas, which is great for bettors of all levels.\nThis is mostly because the field sizes for the 1000 Guineas are large compared to some other Group 1 races in the UK, with most Guineas' fields attracting between 15 and 17 runners.\nBookmakers are forced to offer better odds due to the size of the fields and bettors have been able to cash in recently.\nWinter was a highly-regarded filly, but she was sent out at odds of 9/1. The Aidan O'Brien-trained runner wasn't the top pick for the stable, but some bettors rightfully identified the value on offer.\nThat was the second consecutive winner for O'Brien, who also trained 2016 winner Minding, which was well-found by bettors at 11/10.\nIt pays to follow jockey Ryan Moore, who won the 1000 Guineas in 2012, 2015 and 2016.\nHis biggest win came aboard Homecoming Queen in 2012 where the filly upset a talented field at odds of 25/1. That was before Moore was a legitimate superstar and bettors shouldn't expect a Moore-ridden thoroughbred to be paying long odds ever again.\nThe rule of thumb for betting the 1000 Guineas is to stick with the big stables. It's rare to see a small-time trainer take out one of the Classic races, especially the Guineas.\nBarrier one is something to avoid in the 1000 Guineas. No horses have placed from the inside barrier in the last 10 years.\nThe 1000 Guineas features many lead-up races, but the Fred Darling Stakes (1408m) and the Nell Gwyn Stakes (1408m) are the most popular.\nMuch like the 2000 Guineas, many of the top-performed fillies run fresh up in the 1000 Guineas, which can be used as a trial for the Oaks later in the season.\nBettors should note that 15 of the past 16 winners of the 1000 Guineas have placed at their previous start, so form is of the highest priority.",

A balance between negative and positive signals transmitted via germ line-encoded inhibitory and activating receptors controls the function of NK cells. Activated NK cells respond by killing the infected or tumor cells without prior sensitization, and by producing cytokines and chemokines. It has been shown that NK cells cross-talk with other immune cells such as dendritic cells and can shape the adaptive immune response through these cross-talks as well as by their cytokine/chemokine production. NK cells can also regulate the immune response by killing other immune cells like overactivated T cells or by producing antiinflammatory cytokines when the inflammatory response is too strong to try to minimize possible off target effects. However NK cells are not friends in all situations. Indeed, it has been shown in LCMV-infected murine models that depending on the viral inoculation load NK cells can help fight the infection helping animal survival or can induce the development of a chronic infection. Moreover in animal cancer models, it has been shown that NK cells can kill anti-tumoral T cells, and recent studies following patients has begun to confirm these findings in some type of human cancers. Other studies implicate NK cells in contributing to both graft rejection and tolerance to an allograft. Furthermore, the involvement of NK cells in some autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis is not fully elucidated.\nThe scope of this Research Topic is to present and discuss the actual knowledge on the role of NK cells in human diseases: viral infections as well as other infections, cancer responses, transplantation and autoimmunity. Which are the NK cell subsets that play a role in these diseases? Is there a different phenotype between protective NK cells (antiviral, antitumoral) and NK cells involved in disease pathogenesis? How are these diverse NK cells activated and do they function primarily through direct cytotoxicity, ADCC or cytokine and chemokine production? What are the signals or interactions that can change and shape the NK cell response shifting them from protective to harmful?\nWe welcome the community to submit reviews on historical aspects and current findings, original research manuscripts, as well as theories and methods to better study these questions, with the aim that this will help the community to determine what could be the main future research directions to better understand the role of NK cells in human disease protection or development.\nKeywords: NK cells, immune response, cytokines, chemokines, immune cells, autoimmune diseases, cytotoxicity, infectious diseases, transplantation",

        "raw_content": "Pok\u00e9mon Go Team Discusses Successes, Challenges, And The Future\nPok\u00e9mon Go released last week, and the game is already huge, jumping to the top of iPhone and Android app charts and forcing people out of their homes to catch Pok\u00e9mon. We spoke with John Hanke, the founder of Niantic, the developer that took Nintendo and The Pok\u00e9mon Company's hugely popular monster-catching franchise and ran with it. Hanke and Niantic developed Ingress, a predecessor to Pok\u00e9mon Go that tested the waters for many of its geocaching gameplay mechanics.We asked Hanke how it feels to be behind the phenomenon, what's in store for the game's future, and how involved Pok\u00e9mon's creators have been in the development process.\nGame Informer: Can you give me a little bit of your background, John? You worked on early MMOs, and now you\u2019re doing this strange thing with Pok\u00e9mon. Can you tell me a little bit about that path?\nJohn Hanke: My gaming resume, other than playing games, starts back in 1994 when we founded a company called Archetype Interactive that made a game called Meridian 59. Which is one of the first internet 3D MMOs, I think it was the first. We started it as an independent company, we were acquired by 3DO. Look that one up in Wikipedia \u2013 Trip Hawkins\u2019 failed console game company-turned game publisher. But yeah, we brought that game to market, and I was there. We ran it for a couple years, and then I rolled of to do another company. I had a chance to soak in the early days of MMOs and some of the first online guilds that got formed and watching the whole social dynamic of that type of game emerge in the early days. That experience was definitely at the front of my mind whenever the concept for Ingress was being created. It was really very simply to take that MMO experience and hopefully the social-team cooperative gameplay element to that and bring it out into the real world.\nHow did Pok\u00e9mon Go come about? Did The Pok\u00e9mon Company come to you? Or did you bring a pitch to them and show them Ingress as a possible template?\nYeah, we went out and talked to them. So, we launched Ingress in 2012 \u2013 November 2012. Yeah, we\u2019re growing that product and seeing it be a hit worldwide. And then in 2014 \u2013 I believe if that\u2019s the right date \u2013 that year just keeps getting mixed up in my head, Google and The Pok\u00e9mon Company did an April Fool\u2019s joke around Google Maps, where Pok\u00e9mon spontaneously appeared in Google Maps, which ended up being tremendously successful; it went viral. There\u2019s a video about it that got umpteen million views. And so, within the Niantic team, we were thinking about, we built the game, it\u2019s our intent to build a platform, what would be the next step towards growing the platform? And Pok\u00e9mon was the idea that seemed incredibly obvious to us, given just the structure of the game, given the fact that it\u2019s about chasing Pok\u00e9mon and capturing Pok\u00e9mon out in the real world seemed to be super natural to just substitute a mobile phone for the Pok\u00e9mon and Pok\u00e9dex. So we actually surfaced the idea with The Pok\u00e9mon Company, there was interest, they were actually playing Ingress, and Mr. Ishihara, the CEO of the Pok\u00e9mon company \u2013 I met him maybe a month later, and he was like a level 11 Ingress player, so he compulsively played. And his wife was a \u2013 and I guess they are still playing \u2013 his wife was a high-level Ingress agent as well. So, they\u2019ve been playing together, then a lot of people in The Pok\u00e9mon Company were Ingress players, so when we pitched this idea of a Pok\u00e9mon-like game built on the concept that we\u2019d built with Ingress it was very well-received. I mean, we both brought ideas, being the very obvious thing. And yeah, we started the project, and here we are.\nAnd how involved were they during development? It sounds like they were Ingress fans, did they just trust you or were they checking in a lot? And did they have a lot of feedback?\nYou know, they stayed pretty involved. Junichi Masuda \u2013 he\u2019s the producer on the new Pok\u00e9mon game, he was a programmer going back to the very first Pok\u00e9mon game \u2013 so he\u2019s kind of their go-to guy for canon and the Pok\u00e9mon universe. So, he has been an invaluable asset for us, he\u2019s been involved in playtesting all the way through, and giving us lots of feedback and helping us shape an experience that's true to the Pok\u00e9mon world. I mean, it\u2019s a great brand, it\u2019s been around for 20 years. So, I would say that they've been very attentive and very involved with what we\u2019re doing. They want to protect it and protect the brand. They perceive Go as a really wonderful evolution of the Pok\u00e9mon universe.\nI was surprised at E3 when showing Pok\u00e9mon Go, that Miyamoto was on-stage, clearly excited about the game. As an outsider, I assumed he wouldn't be involved in Pok\u00e9mon Go. Have you talked to Miyamoto? Have you gotten feedback from him, especially following the launch?\nWell, I haven\u2019t talked to Miyamoto-san post-launch, but certainly we\u2019ve been in touch with Nintendo and Miyamoto. He was on-stage with us when we announced the project, it had been under development for some time, but he was onstage when we publicly announced it in Japan back in September of last year. So, it\u2019s definitely something that he\u2019s been aware of and has provided his perspective on.\nHe\u2019s been giving feedback through the course of development? It seems like something he\u2019s excited about. Would you say that\u2019s true?\nI don\u2019t want speak for Mr. Miyamoto. I have a huge amount of respect for him, so I don't want to put words in his mouth. I hope he likes our game. He is aware of it and we have gotten feedback from him. At the same time, he\u2019s not been involved as a producer or game designer, he\u2019s not been hands-on in that way. I was very, very honored to be on stage with him whenever we did our initial announcement and had the opportunity to hang out with him, talk about games, and bluegrass music. It turns out he\u2019s a big bluegrass music fan. He plays the banjo. Very interesting guy.\nThe game\u2019s out now. The servers are having a hard time under the weight of so many users. I\u2019m curious about your expectations of the game. Now that\u2019s it\u2019s out, is it about the level that you guys expected it to be or is it already exceeding expectations in terms of downloads and people talking about it online and all that?\nYeah, I mean, we hoped that the game would be successful and we had ambitious goals for it. But it definitely exceeded our expectations in every way. I mean, hitting that number one in the free apps and top-grossing apps yesterday was unexpected for us on day one with a partially launched product. So yeah it\u2019s been amazing. More impressive than the charts and the raw numbers have been the social activity, engagement, all the user stories that are flooding Reddit and flooding online social platforms \u2013 great stories about groups of people going on giant organized Pok\u00e9mon walk in Sydney, I heard something like that\u2019s getting organized in Los Angeles, I saw photos this morning of big groups of people that had congregated around gyms last night just sort of spontaneously. So that part of it is super exciting to us because our whole thing, the whole mission for Ingress is to get people out of the house and encourage people to exercise and get out of the living room and go out into the neighborhood, those are the most exciting images for us. People getting out, going to new places, and making new friends, and socializing, playing with their existing friends out in the real world, that\u2019s awesome to see.\nHow are Pok\u00e9Stops and gyms established and selected? How does that work on the development side?\nWell, Pok\u00e9Stops and gyms are the results of three years worth of work at Ingress. Ingress is also a game based around locations. Ingress is a sci-fi game, the locations are puzzles in Ingress, players can control portals to power them up, to link them together, to form fields, or two teams. These portals \u2013 when we started that project with with Google \u2013 we seeded that database of global locations, with historical markers, and a database of public artwork, and statues. There were a few hundred thousand of them, it was enough to get the very early data of the game started, and then we encouraged of user within the game to submit places that they thought should be portals within their neighborhoods where they were playing Ingress. And we gave them... you could earn a medal for that, you could earn badges for submissions of portals. And we established some guidelines: It should be safe and publicly accessible; it should be a work of art, important piece of architecture, or unique local business; and then we had a group of operations personnel that reviewed those submissions and approved the ones that seemed to meet our criteria. Those had then been edited and revised over the past several years, new submissions throughout that time period, but also people correcting the location, adding names and descriptions, and deleting things that weren't good portals. It\u2019s not perfect, but it\u2019s become a pretty good, a pretty mature, global data set of these public visible, visually identifiable locations. So we used that, and select a subset of that for the gyms and Pok\u00e9Stops.\nAnd are you guys planning on opening those doors for Pok\u00e9mon? We really want to make our office a gym.\nWe are actively working on a way to re-enable submissions of portals within Ingress. Whether or not we extend that within the Pok\u00e9mon Go app or not, I don\u2019t know at this point. But we actually shut down the submissions about six months ago or around the time we spun our, certainly before then. Because we just had so many submissions worldwide and it was a huge burden to process them. We felt like we needed to put that on pause and we\u2019ve been working a crowd-sourced, user-voting solution so that we can re-enable submissions and with the help of users process new ones. But, no definitive timeline on that, it\u2019s just something we are working on, though.\nFor more from Hanke about the game's lack of a tutorial, why so many churches are Pok\u00e9Stops, and how often the game will be updated, head to page two.\nIt\u2019s kind of hard to tell how exactly things work. For example, the ring that forms around the Pok\u00e9mon when you throw the Pok\u00e9ball \u2013 there's not indication for when the best time is to throw the Pok\u00e9ball. Did you intentionally make it obtuse in order to drive the community to figure the game out?\nI can\u2019t say that we were that clever, no. We tried to create UI that people could figure out, but if it\u2019s so obtuse, you for example were having trouble figuring out what it\u2019s supposed to do, then that\u2019s just a failure on our part. We got a lot of feedback during the beta, we made a lot of improvements, we fixed a lot of bugs, but I would put it into that category of something we\u2019d love to make that more so that it\u2019s more obvious.\nThe basics I haven\u2019t had a problem with, I guess it\u2019s just those higher-level things that I\u2019m sort of struggling to figure out what are the best practices and that kind of thing.\nYeah, yeah. Well, we\u2019ll try to make it better. We\u2019ll try to make it more clear.\nA lot of the Pok\u00e9Stops are churches. Is that just a product of the submission process during Ingress?\nIt is, yeah. They\u2019re all submitted by users and the requirements that they\u2019re notable in some way and they\u2019re publicly accessible places, so yeah, I am aware that there are a number of churches, religious temples, and buildings of various denominations worldwide that are in the game.\nIs there a fear, for example, that churches or other businesses that have been marked as Pok\u00e9Stops will request that they no longer be Pok\u00e9stops? How will you react to that?\nWell, from time to time we get a request from a business or an institution to not be a portal or a Pok\u00e9Stop. We gotten a few of those during the beta. We honor that if that request is made.\nCan you talk about the roadmap for the future? Can you talk about what\u2019s in store for the near-future and long-term?\nI can say a few things about that. In terms of there being a silver or a ruby red, or whatever, our current focus is just on enhancing and improving Pok\u00e9mon Go. It is an MMO, so it is something we\u2019re committed to regular updates and that. There will be new clients and server iterations pushed bi-weekly.\nBi-weekly updates?\nTreat that as a general rule of thumb. That\u2019s more or less the tempo that we\u2019re on, but hopefully we won\u2019t start the war drums beating for an extra piece. My point is more that, it\u2019s one where \u2013 and we\u2019ve done this with Ingress for the past three years \u2013 we regularly push updates. Sometimes they\u2019re small features, sometimes they\u2019re big features that get rolled out. But we treat it as an ever-evolving game. It\u2019s not something that just sort of minted and then issued on launch day and not changed. So, in the area of things that we are interested in continuing to, well, there\u2019s a wide variety of things that we want to do in the game, things on our roadmap, but in the near term, trading is something that\u2019s not in the game right now that we\u2019re committed to adding to the game. So that will be I think fairly soon in the future. We\u2019re also looking at Pok\u00e9Stops and gyms and we have a set of ideas around how to add depth to that gameplay in terms of, you can add things like a lure to a Pok\u00e9Stop today that sort of modifies the Pok\u00e9Stop and causes it to attract more Pok\u00e9mon it.\nThere is some thinking about how to further modify and evolve Pok\u00e9Stops and gyms. Players will be able to shape them and add functionality to them by working collaboratively together, so that\u2019s an area that we\u2019ll be spending quite a bit of effort over the coming weeks and months on. The sort of overall structure of the game is the early stages and the initial experience is about discovering and capturing, there are then, you know, you interact with Pok\u00e9Stops and then as you gain more experience, you reach level five, you can engage in gym battles. It\u2019s evolving that competitive, cooperative team-play that there\u2019s a lot more that we want to do with that. We\u2019ll be focusing on that. It\u2019s more just general improvements and bug fixes.\nWhat are the short-term plans for the servers?\nYeah. Short term plan is to keep the servers up and to launch in the rest of the countries that we 're not in yet.\nDo you have any tips or best practices for playing well?\nTips for playing well? Well, make it a habit. Make it something you do every day. The game is really designed to be something that can be woven into your daily life, so a trip to work, a trip to school, a regular time you have waiting on the bus or a lunch break walk to go out and get some fresh air; it\u2019s really meant to be something that you can fit into those bits of your day where maybe you want to step outside and take a break. Certainly people go on binges and play for hours at a time, but I think it\u2019s best enjoyed if it\u2019s something that you just do on a regular basis and just kind of make a habit of getting outside and wandering a little bit more widely in your neighborhood.\nDo you feel good about the launch right now?\nI feel very happy. We want to get the servers stabilized and launch to the rest of the countries, but I\u2019m delighted and just overwhelmed with the response. It\u2019s gratifying to see after so many long months of work. It\u2019s a great payoff to see people enjoying the product.",

        "raw_content": "Most of the India\u2019s population (about 75%) are lactose intolerant and can\u2019t consume milk or milk products without feeling ill. This is because they lack the enzyme lactase, which digests the milk sugar lactose.\nLactose intolerance is inability to digest sugar in milk \u2013 lactose. Ability to digest lactose is significantly reduced among most individuals already from age two. When an organism ceases to digest lactose efficiently then consuming milk, dairy products, and other products that contain even a trace of lactose (e.g. bread, cereals, instant soups, nibbles\u2026) can cause various symptoms in individuals such as abdominal pain, cramps, bloating, nausea, flatulence and diarrhoea. Lactose intolerance causes digestive problems that can significantly affect quality of life. If these symptoms occur in children they should not be ignored. About 20% of people consider themselves lactose intolerant because of related symptoms, although they have never been formally tested for the intolerance. It is important to distinguish between milk allergy and lactose intolerance. Milk allergy is an immune system response to milk, while lactose intolerance is a digestive disorder. Symptoms of lactose intolerance become evident in early childhood or in adolescence.\nLactose intolerance occurs when the lactase enzyme is not present in sufficient quantity to break down lactose. Genetic studies have shown that mutation at a single position in MCM6 gene is associated with decrease in lactase activity which may lead to lactose intolerance. Cytosine (C) or thymine (T) may be found at that position of gene, where C is associated with lactose intolerance and T is associated with lactose tolerance.\nGenetic test (DNA test) for lactose intolerance is based on detection C or T variant in gene MCM6. Although this detection can be performed using several different methods, most of methods are technically demanding and expensive and some of them are also insufficiently precise.\nGluten: Some people experience symptoms found in celiac disease, such as \u201cfoggy mind\u201d, depression, ADHD-like behavior, abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, headaches, bone or joint pain, and chronic fatigue when they have gluten in their diet, yet do not test positive for celiac disease. The terms non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) and non-celiac wheat sensitivity (NCWS) are generally used to refer to this condition, when removing gluten from the diet resolves symptoms.\nUntil now it was thought that people with NGCS/NCWS only experienced symptoms and did not have any intestinal damage. However, in July 2016, a team of researchers at Columbia University Medical Center, published a study confirming that wheat exposure in this group is, in fact, triggering a systemic immune reaction and accompanying intestinal cell damage. It is estimated that the impacted population is equal to or even exceeds the number of individuals with celiac disease (the vast majority of whom remain undiagnosed).\nAt this point, research has not confirmed that gluten is the culprit triggering the immune reaction as is the case with celiac disease. According to head researcher of the study, Dr. Armin Alaedini, \u201cthere is some ambiguity there, which is why we are referring to it as non-celiac wheat sensitivity for now.\u201d He explains that \u201cmore studies are needed to understand the mechanism and identify the molecular triggers responsible for the breach of the intestinal barrier and the associated symptoms in affected patients.\u201d\nGenetic testing for celiac disease which is an autoimmune disorder requires a swab sample from the mouth or a blood sample. This testing can accurately predict the risk probability of the celiac disease along with the statistical probability of the individual\u2019s offspring inheriting the same risk. A severe celiac disease is found to occur if both the parents are carriers of this gene. The testing also includes gluten sensitivity.",

The book is in near fine condition with some spotting to the top-edge for a couple of inches out from the spine. There is very slight sunning to the spine of the book. The slipcase shows wear but still looks great. There is some fading and there is a bit of paper scratched away from the top of the box near the spine. There is also a small tape remnant at the very bottom outside extremity of the front of the case. The Limited Editions Club was founded in 1929. It was the creation of George Macy. Its purpose was to create very high quality versions of the classics that were also illustrated by the finest contemporary artists. All Limited Edition Club books are hand signed by the illustrators with a short description of the making of the book on the colophon in the rear of the volume. Only a few were published without a signature because the illustrator had passed away before publication.

Instead, it is a time for you to ask questions about necessary documents or adherence to any specific guidelines.\nChoose Between a Class A and a Class B License\nThere are two types of offshore banking licenses granted in Belize: Class A and Class B.\nA Class A banking license has virtually no operational restrictions but does require a minimum capital investment of $3,000,000 USD. The Class A license costs $20,000 in fees annually.\nA Class B license requires $500,000 USD in capital investment, but includes some restrictions like not offering checkbooks to depositors. The Class B license costs $15,000 annually.\nSubmit a Formal Application at a Second Meeting with the Central Bank of Belize\nOnce you have determined which of the two types of offshore banking licenses is best for your business, you'll need to secure the appropriate application forms and begin filling them out.\nThis is when having an experienced licensing consultant in Belize can be a tremendous help. Although you will need to file copies of the application elsewhere, you will also need to formally submit the originals at a second meeting with representatives of the Central Bank of Belize.\nSupply Documents Supporting the Business' Application\nAlong with your application, you will need to provide supporting documents that back up the goals of your banking company.\nAs well as basic items like notarized copies of passports, you will need to show proof that potential bank officers and directors are in good financial standing and have ample experience working in the financial field. If these documents aren't in English, they will also need to be translated.\nWait for Confirmation and an Official License\nThe entire process from initial introductory meeting to the granting of an official offshore banking license typically takes anywhere from six months to a full year.\nAfter submitting all the supporting documents, there is nothing to do but wait. After a month, it is common to ask whether all documents are suitable and if any additional items are needed, which can help to speed up the process.\nObtaining an international banking license in Belize is a straightforward process. All you need to do is follow the steps and have patience that the license will come through.",

        "raw_content": "Powerful technology paves way for early interventions to prevent heart attacks developed by international team involving Leicester researchers. People at high risk of a heart attack in adulthood could be spotted much earlier in life with a one-off DNA test, according to new research part-funded by the British Heart Foundation and published today in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. For more information see the IDTechEx report on Biomedical Diagnostics at Point of Care 2019-2029.\nGenetic factors have long been known to be major contributors of someone's risk of developing coronary heart disease - the leading cause of heart attacks. Currently, to identify those at risk, doctors use scores based on lifestyle and clinical conditions associated with coronary heart disease such as cholesterol level, blood pressure, diabetes and smoking. But these scores are imprecise, age-dependent and miss a large proportion of people who appear 'healthy', but will still develop the disease.\nThe 'big-data' GRS technique takes into account 1.7 million genetic variants in a person's DNA to calculate their underlying genetic risk for coronary heart disease.\nThe team analysed genomic data of nearly half a million people from the UK Biobank research project aged between 40-69 years. This included over 22,000 people who had coronary heart disease.\nThe GRS was better at predicting someone's risk of developing heart disease than each of the classic risk factors for coronary heart disease alone. The ability of the GRS to predict coronary heart disease was also largely independent of these known risk factors. This showed that the genes which increase the risk of coronary heart disease don't simply work by elevating blood pressure or cholesterol, for example.\nPeople with a genomic risk score in the top 20 per cent of the population were over four-times more likely to develop coronary heart disease than someone with a genomic risk score in the bottom 20 per cent.\nIn fact, men who appeared healthy by current NHS health check standards but had a high GRS were just as likely to develop coronary heart disease as someone with a low GRS and two conventional risk factors such as high cholesterol or high blood pressure.\nThese findings help to explain why people with healthy lifestyles and no conventional risk factors can still be struck by a devastating heart attack.\nCrucially, the GRS can be measured at any age including childhood as your DNA does not change. This means that those at high risk can be identified much earlier than is possible through current methods and can be targeted for prevention with lifestyle changes and, where necessary, medicines. The GRS is also a one-time test and with the cost of genotyping to calculate the GRS now less than \u00a340 GBP ($50 USD) it is within the capability of many health services to provide.\nSenior author Professor Sir Nilesh Samani, Cardiovascular Theme Lead at the NIHR Leicester Biomedical Research Centre and Medical Director at the British Heart Foundation said: \"At the moment we assess people for their risk of coronary heart disease in their 40's through NHS health checks. But we know this is imprecise and also that coronary heart disease starts much earlier, several decades before symptoms develop. Therefore if we are going to do true prevention, we need to identify those at increased risk much earlier. This study shows that the GRS can now identify such individuals. Applying it could provide a most cost effective way of preventing the enormous burden of coronary heart disease, by helping doctors select patients who would most benefit from interventions and avoiding unnecessary screening and treatments for those unlikely to benefit.\"\nLead author Dr Michael Inouye, of the Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute and University of Cambridge said: \"The completion of the first human genome was only 15 years ago. Today, the combination of data science and massive-scale genomic cohorts has now greatly expanded the potential of healthcare. While genetics is not destiny for coronary heart disease, advances in genomic prediction have brought the long history of heart disease risk screening to a critical juncture, where we may now be able to predict, plan for, and possibly avoid a disease with substantial morbidity and mortality.\"\nThis study was supported by funding from the British Heart Foundation, National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC, Australia), the Victorian Government and the Australian Heart Foundation. It was supported in Leicester by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Leicester Biomedical Centre - a partnership between Leicester's Hospitals, the University of Leicester and Loughborough University.\nTop image: University of Oxford",

        "raw_content": "Glyphosate Toxicity, Cause of Disease: Science Used to Regulate Monsanto Roundup Herbicide is Outdated: Study\nEnvironmental health scientists call for expanded research and monitoring of world\u2019s most widely used herbicide\nEarth is Land 17 February 2016\nTheme: Biotechnology and GMO, Science and Medicine\nGlyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto\u2019s Roundup herbicide, is now the world\u2019s most widely used weed-killer. First sold to farmers in 1974, its use has increased approximately 100-fold since. Nearly all the corn and soy grown in the United States is now glyphosate-tolerant and treated with the herbicide. The weed-killer is also used on numerous other food crops and on landscaping plants. Enough glyphosate is now used to cover nearly every acre of cultivated cropland in the US. The chemical has been found in streams, wastewater, and in rainwater samples taken from all across the country.\nDespite the extensive and increasing use of glyphosate, we know little about how much of the chemical people are actually being exposed to. Here in the US, glyphosate is not among the pesticide residues for which the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) routinely tests food. It is also not included among the 200-plus chemicals on the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s (CDC) human biomonitoring program.\nPhoto by Rob Franksdad Recent science also suggests that glyphosate lasts longer in soil and water than originally anticipated.\nIn a paper just published in the journal Environmental Health, 14 leading environmental health researchers say current safety standards are based on outdated science and inadequate exposure data and that new research into glyphosate\u2019s toxicity should be a government priority.\n\u201cWhen these chemicals are approved for safety it\u2019s based on assumptions of how they\u2019ll be used,\u201d including \u201cat what time of year and at what quantities,\u201d explains paper co-author Laura Vandenberg, assistant professor of environmental health sciences at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. \u201cEven if this was a completely benign chemical, it\u2019s shocking to know how much its use has increased,\u201d she says.\nVandenberg and her co-authors point out that to accommodate changes in use, the levels of glyphosate-based herbicides allowed in crops \u2014 that include corn, soybeans, canola, and various livestock feeds have been increased. But they also point out that estimates of safe daily limits for eating food that might contain glyphosate \u2013 both in the US and in Europe \u2013 are based on science that does not reflect how much the chemical is now used. Recent science also suggests that glyphosate lasts longer in soil and water than originally anticipated.\nIn addition to using glyphosate at planting time, farmers are now using it just before harvest, to dry leaves in order to make the physical harvesting of plants easier. \u201cLate season, harvest aid use of GBHs [glyphosate-based herbicides] is an important new contributor to the increase in residue frequency and levels in some grain-based food products,\u201d the researchers write. Such use was not accounted for when safety limits were set for glyphosate when the herbicide was introduced. In recent testing done in the United Kingdom, glyphosate residues were found in about one-third of bread samples tested. And in the US, testing by the USDA in 2011 found glyphosate in about 90 percent of soybeans tested. But the paper points out that since such tests aren\u2019t conducted regularly, there is no information about what people are exposed to through food on an ongoing basis.\nIn addition, there isn\u2019t any continuous data on human exposure. \u201cGlyphosate is being used way more than anyone ever anticipated and there is no biomonitoring data,\u201d says report co-author Bruce Blumberg, professor of cell biology and biomedical engineering at the University of California, Irvine.\nAdding to concerns about glyphosate is the fact that last year, the World Health Organization\u2019s International Agency for Research on Cancer concluded that glyphosate is \u201cprobably carcinogenic to humans.\u201d Glyphosate product manufacturers, including Monsanto, dispute this conclusion.\nThe chemical also presents other health concerns. Among those, the paper notes, are adverse effects on the liver and kidneys. There is also the possibility that glyphosate may impact the function of certain hormones \u2014 impacts that could influence a number of body systems, and influence development of chronic diseases. The researchers also point out that we know little about the effect of glyphosate-based herbicides on the immune and neurological systems \u2013 information that would be key to understanding potentially profound but subtle health impacts.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t know a lot but what we do know suggests harm,\u201d says Blumberg.\n\u201cGlyphosate,\u201d explains Vandenberg, \u201cis not an overtly toxic chemical, which in part is why glyphosate use has soared.\u201d But she says, \u201cGlyphosate may contribute to more subtle diseases.\u201d\nResearch on glyphosate\u2019s toxicity, the paper explains, has typically focused on how much of the chemical will kill a lab animal \u2014 not to investigate what happens at low and chronic levels of exposure via food or drinking water. Vandenberg also explains that in addition to understanding how glyphosate itself acts on humans and the environment, it is important to understand the behavior of its primary chemical breakdown compound. That, she says, is yet another data gap.\nYet another concern is that glyphosate-based herbicides are often applied in conjunction with other pesticides and little is known about the effects of these mixtures. Safety levels for pesticides are calculated for each active ingredient individually, despite the fact that in most agricultural operations, a cocktail of them are applied together. Combinations of glyphosate plus other herbicides are now common in agriculture given that many weeds have developed glyphosate resistance from years of overuse.\nTo close the many gaps in what is known about glyphosate exposure and toxicity, the researchers call for both new research into glyphosate\u2019s biological activity and epidemiological studies. They recommend that the CDC include glyphosate in its biomonitoring program and that the US National Toxicology Program make glyphosate a research priority.\n\u201cThe main point we were trying to make is that use has gone up and there is a lot of uncertainty about health effects,\u201d says Blumberg.\nGiven that glyphosate is showing up widely in the environment \u2013 something not expected when the herbicide was first approved \u2013 and that its use has increased so dramatically since initial safety assessments were made, and what has been learned about its health effects since, suggest that a reevaluation is imperative, the researchers write.\n\u201cThe big take away,\u201d says Vandenberg, \u201cis don\u2019t throw yours hands up in fear, but that something we\u2019ve been told is safe hasn\u2019t been tested in the way that we can draw that conclusion from.\u201d\nThe original source of this article is Earth is Land\nCopyright \u00a9 Elizabeth Grossman, Earth is Land, 2016\nArticles by: Elizabeth Grossman",

A small majority of voters were in favour of leaving, and the UK government has already indicated that this outcome will be respected and implemented. Wrexham Glynd\u0175r University recognises that students or staff from other member states of the European Union may be concerned about what this means for them.\nWe are reassuring all of our students that their best interests are our highest priority. We will do whatever is within our power to inform and support them as arrangements for the UK to leave the EU are developed and implemented over the coming months and years.\nIn particular, we are assuring those of our current students paying EU-level fees and incoming EU students for 2016/17 that they will not be financially disadvantaged during their time at our University as a result of the referendum result, regardless of the timing of the UK\u2019s exit from the EU. We will also reassure our partners in EU countries on this.\nThe vote to leave the European Union does not mean there will be any immediate material change to the immigration status of current and prospective EU students and staff, nor to the UK university sector\u2019s participation in EU programmes such as Horizon 2020 and Erasmus+. Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty foresees at least a two-year negotiation process between the UK and other member states, during which time the terms of the UK\u2019s exit from the European Union will be decided. Prime Minister David Cameron stated this morning that this process would be initiated and led by his successor, which may be some months away.\nWhatever the future landscape will look like, Wrexham Glynd\u0175r University will remain international in its outlook and will cherish educational, research, cultural and economic links. Personally, as an EU citizen who has lived and worked across different countries, including Wales, I am committed to retaining and expanding such links for mutual benefit.\nWe will be monitoring developments very closely and will attempt to provide prospective and current students and staff with as much information as we can, as promptly as we can, via our website and appropriate channels.\nProfessor Maria Hinfelaar",

        "title": "What No One Wants to Talk About (When We Talk About Celebrities) - Good Grief",
        "raw_content": "Home Blog What No One Wants to Talk About (When We Talk About Celebrities)\nAugust 12, 2018 February 3, 2019 Blog, The Sky Is Falling: Insight & Reflections\nChances are, you\u2019ve already heard that pop icon Demi Lovato nearly died from a recent overdose. For how frequently we discuss celebrities, it amazes me how little we think about the human beings behind the hype. We talk about what they wear, tweet, and say. We pin our hopes, fears, and disgust onto these projections of persons masked in makeup. They become a distraction from our own fear and vulnerability. We laugh at their repeated rehab visits and then grieve on social media when they die. Why?\nPeople are hungry for connection. We interact with strangers through screens, avoid eye-contact in waiting rooms, and feel invalidated when we don\u2019t get enough \u201clikes\u201d on our social media. My partner and I run a grief group focused on collective grief, meaning grief bigger than any one person. We see the same story with most new group members: They had nowhere to talk about these \u201cimpolite\u201d topics such as climate change, racism, mass shootings, or other systemic issues. And not talking about it only made them feel worse.\nIt\u2019s not uncommon for new members to cry at their first meeting. They get overwhelmed with emotion, because they haven\u2019t had a chance to vocalize these fears and insecurities, let alone have others nod their heads along with them. We are social creatures that depend on community and interpersonal relation. Surface level dialogues about Taylor Swift\u2019s dating life will never provide the authentic connection we crave.\nThis need for reminders that we\u2019re not alone means that when a celebrity shows us a glimpse of authenticity, we idolize them and make role-models out of them in a way that creates a story they are then pressured to preserve.\nOn the day Chester Bennington\u2019s suicide went public, The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline received a 14% increase in calls. He had talked openly about his struggles with mental illness and addiction. When he completed suicide, fans who had looked to him for inspiration took it personal. Some looked at his death as a betrayal, as if it discredited all of the work he had done to inspire others to live. Relapse and suicide are not moral failings. They are tragedies of a complicated illness we continue to research and strive to better understand.\nCelebrity suicides and drug overdoses are nothing new to Hollywood. We are seeing an increased frequency in them as we look to these individuals for distraction while violence, political turmoil, and consequences of climate change worsen.\nIn Margaret J. Wheatley\u2019s guide Who Do We Choose to Be?, a book that explores and examines leadership during times of increased chaos and catastrophe, she compiled research about previously failed civilizations. She looked at patterns and signs that creep up before collapse. One of the commonalities in societies heading towards disintegration is the rise of celebrity culture. Wheatley writes,\nA celebrity culture always arises in the Age of Decadence. We become obsessed with the lives of particular individuals, their talents and achievements. We may find them brilliant or despicable. Whether we are inspired, jealous, critical, or turned off, the focus is on individuals, what they are doing moment by moment and whether they please us. Popularity becomes the measure of success. These distractions grow even more enticing as things worsen (72).\nWe\u2019re seeing large scale environmental destruction, record heatwaves and storms, police brutality, kids in cages, blatant hate, loss of empathy, increased violence, addiction, and suicide. If you\u2019re not grief-stricken, you\u2019re not paying attention. Addiction and suicide affect human beings of all income levels, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Celebrities are not exempt from this.\nIn March, I visited my little sister in rehab for an eating disorder. I spent a week in a tiny Arizona town known best for its horses or world class addiction treatment centers. It was five days of intensive all-day family therapy, a program designed to help us better understand, support, and cope with our loved one\u2019s eating disorder, the most fatal and misunderstood of the mental illnesses. One of the young women in treatment\u2014a Midwesterner who walked around with Lovato\u2019s book under her arm to read between sessions\u2014glowed when she told me, \u201cDemi was treated here too.\u201d\nI thought of this young woman when I first read about Levato\u2019s OD. Then I thought of my little sister. She\u2019s 25, the same age as Lovato. These young women are still so new into recovery that a bad day can feel like a recipe for instant relapse. And then I thought of Demi, a human being I\u2019ve never met but care about because she has inspired so many young women with her transparency as she struggles with mental illness and addiction.\nI\u2019ve never been to rehab, but I have been hospitalized for depression more times than I care to count. I know the crushing vulnerability that is being sick enough to surrender your autonomy for constant care. Add paparazzi and the world watching, and I can only imagine what strength it takes to keep going, to keep putting one foot in front of the other when you\u2019re so sick that you\u2019ve lost faith in your ability to recover.\nThe therapist at family week said, \u201cRecovery isn\u2019t about perfection. It\u2019s about doing the next right thing when we slip.\u201d I wrote it down to remind myself, my sister, and anyone I know in recovery. There\u2019s not many guarantees in recovery, but I can promise it\u2019s not pretty and perfection isn\u2019t possible. It\u2019s this vulnerability that also creates space for some of the most meaningful connections and deepest love I\u2019ve ever experienced.\nNot everyone recovers. And for those who do, relapse is always a possibility. When Phillip Seymour Hoffman relapsed and died from heroin, he had previously been sober for 23 years. This understanding of relapse makes mental illness and addiction much scarier. Fear makes us feel vulnerable. We run from uncertainty, blaming the individual rather than looking deeper into what issues drive a person to self-destruction.\nCelebrities are representative of the society they come from. They reflect our culture and our culture reflects them back. Wheatley writes,\nCultures focused on popularity have no depth or resilience. They are superficial and ephemeral: tastes change; fashions come and go; fads rise and fall. Always changing, such a culture increases our sense of uncertainty and vulnerability. We may be popular now, but beneath the surface our anxiety and stress keep growing (72).\nThis suggests that even those excelling in the limelight are not winning. It might be hard to remember celebrities live in the same world we do when they live in their mansions and drive cars that cost more than most of us make in a year. Yet, we cannot forget their humanity.\nIf we do not change the way we think about celebrities, I fear we will see an increased frequency in their deaths. They will feel more isolated as we look to them for distraction while the world burns. And when we see how their deaths affect the wellness of the population, this is not just an issue concerning Hollywood.\nIt must be okay for people to admit when they\u2019re not okay. This has to be true for everyone, including celebrities that we\u2019d rather make into our heroes or villains. It\u2019s not all or nothing in a race to perfection. Life is much messier than that. Can we reduce the shame and stigma associated with asking for help, taking a break, and prioritizing self-care? Instead of pouring money into prison systems where we send our addicts and mentally ill\u2014many of whom could be functional citizens in society if given proper treatment\u2014can we fund more mental health and addiction recovery programs?\nDepression and addiction are illnesses. They are much more complicated than what medication or meditation alone can solve, despite what many folks would like you to believe. It usually takes a combination of treatment modalities and it has to be personalized for the individual. What works for you might not work for me and vice versa. We have to stop comparing individuals and their struggles while arguing about who deserves to feel more pain because of their life circumstances. We have to stop thinking that money and stardom protect a person from these mental afflictions.\nThe truth of the matter is that pain and heartbreak are inevitable. It\u2019s part of the human condition. Let\u2019s use that pain to connect in our humanity and determine how to best move forward together. Right now, our politics are corrupted by big business and secret agendas. The place for authentic change is at the local level. It exists in the individual dialogues between neighbors, friends, and family. Let\u2019s have difficult conversations about everything taboo, using love to light the way and help us navigate the discomfort. May we give ourselves permission to be wrong so that we listen to understand rather than be right. It is only after facing our own internal darkness that we can help shed light on external darkness. Let\u2019s commit to truth and stop using celebrities as scapegoats to distract us from what scares us. Let\u2019s be brave together. Our humanity depends on it.\nWheatley, Margaret J.

        "raw_content": "If you are an entrepreneur or want to become one, then you must read the following ten important life tips from Mr Gaurav Narang. He is the CEO and founder of CityGreens (Vertical Farming Technologies Pvt. Ltd.), a startup on a mission to solve the problem of insufficient access to safe, healthy and fresh food for urban dwellers. Mr Gaurav is an alumnus of the prestigious Indian Institute of Managment \u2013 Calcutta. After education; He started to work in an intrapreneurial capacity in a Reliance ADA group start-up. When the promoters decided to exit the business; He grabbed the opportunity to transition from an intrapreneur to an entrepreneur by co-founding Medybiz Pharma. Later Portea Medical, India\u2019s largest Home Healthcare company, saw value in the business and acquired it. He is an entrepreneur with huge experience in early-stage startups and a person with valuable life advice.\nIn an interaction with GoodVitae, he has shared following amazing life tips through a question-answer session.\n1. How did you become an entrepreneur?\n\u201cI cannot recall a particular point in time or a moment of truth wherein I decided to become an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship, for me, is more of an ingrained attitude in everything I do, rather than a decision point towards a choice of career.\u201d\n2. Can you tell something about initial failures and struggles that you faced?\n\u201cBeing a bootstrapped start-up; at CityGreens, failures and struggles are a part of every single day. However, we experienced the greatest problem even before we could launch.\nA month before setting-up CityGreens, we created an innovative product design and focussed all our energies on building it. It was the only idea we were working on at that time and took us around three months from design to come up with the first prototype.\nDuring the final pre-market test phase, it clicked on all the counts but one. However, the product may not have worked as envisaged because of failure on that one count. We decided to drop it. It happened one week before our planned launch. Also, we had no other option at that point.\u201d\n3. How did you handle your failures?\n\u201cWe handle all struggles and failures the same way; We take a break, sometimes a couple of hours, at times a couple of days, to clear up our mind, and then we start again. It\u2019s necessary to evaluate our mistakes and learnings and try not to commit the same errors again. We take one step at a time. Like a marathon runner, we don\u2019t focus on the entire 42 km but on the next 10 meters, and then the next 100, and before we know we are back on our feet sprinting towards the finish line.\nIn the above case, the first thing we did was to postpone our launch by a couple of weeks. Then, with time on our side, we did a critical analysis of our failed prototype and drew inspirations from a small component in that to come up with our next product concept, \u2018CG Vertical Kitchen Garden.\u2019 We doubled down our efforts, redesigned a completely new product, filed for a patent, changed our website plan and design, rebuild it, and then launched it on time.\u201d\n4. Do you believe that failures are important to become successful?\n\u201cI believe, learning from experiences is very important to become successful. It does not really matter whether you are learning from a successful experience or a failed one. What matters is whether you are willing to learn and improve from every single experience that you encounter.\u201d\n5. How did you achieve your first success?\n\u201cWe achieved our first success by continuing to pivot the business model till we could find something that could be sustainable, scalable and stand on its own merit. I did it in my previous venture, and we took around five years to get a fix on the right model.\u201d\n6. How do you motivate yourself?\n\u201cI don\u2019t. I force myself to do things that need to be done. Motivation follows in later.\u201d\n7. What is the most important life lesson you have learned till now?\n\u201cOwnership. The choices we made, and the actions we took in the past, determines our present. If one is not content with their present self, they can always begin to act and choose differently.\u201d\n8. Can you share an important habit which has played a part in your success?\n\u201cI could never appreciate the quintessential MBA question, \u2018where do you see yourself five years down the line?\u2019 I still don\u2019t. In fact, none of the answers that I had to make up 5, or 7, or 10 years ago hold true today.\nOne habit that has held me in good stead is that I don\u2019t make long-term plans. I focus on the immediate present and plan for the short to mid-term. It helps me as I can revisit and modify my plans quite frequently, based on the need of the hour. Also, it gives me enough freedom and bandwidth to take risks and explore new things without getting burdened by the weight of ambitious long-term plans.\u201d\nRelated Post: 9 Practical Success Tips from TEDx Speaker and Entrepreneur Deepak Hariharan\n9. Do you like reading books? If yes, can you recommend one?\n\u201cYes. When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi.\u201d\n10. At last, can you share one of the important life tips for budding entrepreneurs and students?\n\u201cDon\u2019t be afraid of living your dreams. If you try to take that plunge, the worst that may happen is, you may fail. If you do, you can always start again.\u201d\nIf you like this important life tips then make sure to share it with your entrepreneur friends.",

        "title": "Grandma Slump: Love, Hate, Love, Hate",
        "raw_content": "It's impossible for me to hate anyone. I'm a lover, not a hater. If I ever got married, it's extremely easy to think of me being married forever. The fact that it's not yet been tested notwithstanding.\nBut I know the divorce courts are full of those who have known love, then love turned to hate, and the former lovers have turned to the judge for judgment, to terminate their marriage.\nWhat was the basic problem? At the risk of oversimplifying the issue, I'd say there was some trouble with their vows. We all know the traditional vows, the couple vows to be together in sickness and health, for richer and poorer, and not to get caught having sex with others.\nI'm guessing it's the last vow that's the toughest to keep, since everywhere you look there's another heavenly specimen walking by in a tight dress, hair just right, the face of a devilish angel, and nicely perky. Or a studly guy, with all the bulges in the right place. But then, back at home, what you're looking at at home, if it was a car it'd be in the junkyard, if it was a fight it'd be stopped.\nSo what happens, love turns to hate. Maybe not all at once, and maybe not irretrievably so. I'm thinking love can turn to hate, then hate back to love, then love to hate again, then hate at least once more back to love. It all depends. Maybe you've had an epiphany not only about vows but about the true nature of love. Love doesn't actually have to do with whether the other person has become decrepit. It's something from the soul and concerns the soul. You find that out, but you can also forget it.\nBut if you had been doing the proper stuff of a relationship all along, by now you'd be sharing humor and all the graces of life. If you ever veered off toward hate, you'd catch yourself and correct course, veering back toward love. That's how you're able to pass satisfying, good years together, having established yourself in a mutual place that isn't superficial.\nThink of how crazy it is to love, to hate, then to love, then to hate again. You honestly can't be that shifty and shiftless. Although to be fair, maybe you can. If you came up in a household where shiftiness and shiftlessness were allowed to take root and grow. But honestly? You can't overcome that? I think you should be able to, especially if you see how crazy it is. And destructive.\nIt'd be like painting your bedroom black, then painting it white, then black, then white. I don't think very many people would see that as desirable. It'd be a life of weird extremes. Or trading in good health for mad cow disease, then working like a dog to get well again, then exposing yourself again to mad cow disease. Hard to imagine. Or being normal, then infecting yourself with trichinosis, similar to mad cow but coming from pigs, the disease that honestly scares me more than AIDS. I eat pork, I don't sleep around. Pink I don't like, at least in pork.\nFor a good relationship to stay good, one great pointer is to stay on the same page. Have a genuine interest in the other person, while allowing the other person to still be a separate person. You come together, you share mutual things, while having enough different between you to keep it interesting. On the other hand, if you have one person who is totally interesting and the other isn't, you're going to get out of sync.\nRemember the old windshield wipers we used to have? They worked on two separate mechanisms. One mechanism would go just slightly bad, and next thing you knew, one wiper was faster than the other. I used to see this and be almost hypnotized watching the variances, as one wiper lapped the other in their sequence. If you watched it for 10 minutes you could time it out and make scientific judgments about the variance. I guess that's the background I have that makes me such an expert in the psychology of couples. Watching windshield wipers.\nMy expertise is good, since I'm able to provide counsel to anyone having trouble in a relationship. If you started out with love, then you just need to let love bloom again and grow continually. If you started out with hate, well, that doesn't sound very likely. Just don't let love become hate, and if you already did, work at it to make hate love again. Then get it firmly in the love gear and keep it there. Don't veer off to hate again; make double damn sure you don't. That should never be done!\nLabels: cars, counseling, disease, love, marriage, psychology, relationships, sex, wisdom",

        "raw_content": "Trump pays respects as Bush lies in state\nMr Bush, who served as the 41st US president between 1989 and 1993, had been receiving treatment for a form of Parkinson's disease and had been admitted to hospital with a blood infection in April.\nAn extended salute\nThree hours after an assemblage of officials, dignitaries, family and friends welcomed the coffin of President George HW Bush to the US Capitol, the current president and first lady made a mid-evening visit to pay their respects.\nThe motorcade took only a few minutes to travel down Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House.\nAt 20:30 (01:30 GMT on Tuesday) Donald and Melania Trump arrived inside what was now a relatively empty Capitol rotunda.\nMembers of the five branches of the US military continued to stand to attention, as the two approached the flag-draped coffin.\nThe president gave an extended salute and the first lady put her hand over her heart.\nThe only sound in the massive, marbled room - where 32 people, including 12 presidents, have lain in state - was the steady whirr of press cameras.\nMr and Mrs Trump then turned and left. In all, the president was away from the White House less than half an hour, without a word to the public or press.\nThe public will be able to pay respects at the rotunda until Wednesday's invitation-only funeral service at the National Cathedral.\nMr Trump will attend with Melania but will not deliver a speech.\nAccording to Mark Updegrove's book The Last Republicans, which came out last year, Mr Bush voted for Mr Trump's opponent Hillary Clinton in the election and had called Mr Trump a \"blowhard\".\nHis son, former President George W Bush, worried he would be the \"last Republican president\", despite Mr Trump running on the party's ticket, the book said.\nA service was held in the rotunda after Mr Bush's coffin arrived on Monday afternoon, with members of the military serving as pallbearers. George Bush Jr was in attendance and was clearly moved by the events.\nIn a eulogy, House Speaker Paul Ryan said: \"Here lies a great man\", adding that \"no-one better harmonised the joy of life and the duty of life\".\nMr Ryan said Mr Bush was a \"great leader and a good man, a gentle soul of firm resolve\".\nSenate majority leader Mitch McConnell said: \"Through the Cold War and the Soviet Union's collapse, he kept us on course. When the rule of law needed defending in the Persian Gulf, he kept us on course.\"\nVice-President Mike Pence said there was a \"kindness about the man that was evident to everyone who met him\".\nGeorge HW Bush was a decorated fighter pilot in World War Two, a head of the CIA and vice-president to Ronald Reagan before being elected president in 1988.\nAlso making the final journey with President Bush was his loyal labrador service dog, Sully.\nMr Bush's spokesman, Jim McGrath, tweeted a picture of Sully with the casket, with the caption: \"Mission complete.\"",

        "raw_content": "Did anyone else watch the opening ceremony of The Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics? Did anyone else think, \u2018Wow, if that was me entering the stadium in front of 40,000 live spectators (including world leaders) with millions more watching at home, that would be one of the best moments of my life?\u2019 Did anyone else think, \u2018Why the hell are so many of them watching the whole experience through their smart phones and tablets?\u2019 I definitely did.\n2,900 athletes, all brilliant at what they do, will be competing in this competition. I am envious of all of them. I have no idea what it feels like to be truly brilliant at something. I watched a small part of the opening ceremony. I saw the fifth Olympic Ring fail to open, but mostly I watched the athletes and their teams enter the stadium through the hole in the floor. For many of them, this must have been the greatest moments of their lives. All of them, whether coaches or athletes, had something to be very proud of.\nSo why did so many of them watch it through their portable video devices? Did someone forget to tell them that there will be professional videographers with big fancy cameras? The image at the head of this post, that of the American team entering, shows twenty separate video recording devices, mostly smart phones. [the use of this photo of Americans is irrelevant, many teams were the same]\nGo, watch it again if you didn\u2019t notice, and watch how many people coming into that majestic stadium carried a tablet aloft, or pointed a smart phone at the people around them. They were literally living through the best moments of their life, but they only saw it through a screen. Thousands of miles away, I saw it through a screen too, although admittedly, their sound quality was presumably a little bit better.\nIn Korea, people are smart phone obsessed. I have enjoyed my one month here without a telephone. Admittedly I have been using the computer a lot, but when I walk outside, I turn off my computer and I am disconnected. It is rather refreshing.\nWhatever did people do when we had to live in the real world and talk to real people and think of real things and we couldn\u2019t watch it all back on an un-stabilised screen, pointed aimlessly in every direction? I can hardly remember.\nNow watch this video on how social media makes us lonely. It makes the point far more eloquently than I.\nBy Jamie| 2014-03-10T17:45:15+00:00\tFebruary 9th, 2014|Thoughts and Inspiration|4 Comments\nVeronika Horvathova 07/08/2014 at 05:07\t- Reply\nHeeey Jamie.\nI have just recently found your webpage and I totally felt in love with your advanture and perception of the world. I am a big sport fan and my biggest dream was to participate in OG\u2026 hahaha not happening. But that was not the point, I wanted to comment about the smart phone world obsession. I, myself, own one but I am using it in very special occassion (like when I really need to find information or something). I hate having this nonstop internet in mobile phone because it bothers me to be connected all the time (I don\u00b4t know why basically, just this inner feeling). And I have never had this 3G thing. And it is totally fine with me and I am still alive (most people don\u00b4t understand that :D).\nAnyways take care (and write more so I have things to read in my borring work) and if you have ride around Vietnam let me know!\nThanks Veronika, I\u2019m glad you feel the same as me. The world is so much better when you see it with your eyes, rather than through a screen in front of you. I hope to make it to Vietnam some day.\nJeff @ Go Travelzing 09/02/2014 at 16:42\t- Reply\nIt is tough to separate people from their phones these days. I just spent a week on the Amazon river with no connection to the outside world. It was a great break from being connected all the time. When I got back online I realized that I did not miss anything important.\nThat sounds like a fantastic experience. When we disconnect, all that matters is what we see before us.",

        "title": "Why I Went on Holiday to Greece | Great Big Scary World",
        "raw_content": "Why I Went on Holiday to Greece\nA holiday is defined as \u2018an extended period of leisure and recreation, especially one spent away from home or in travelling.\u2019 I would agree, and when using that definition, it seems that I don\u2019t know whether I go on holidays very often. Not anymore at least.\nFor example, when I chose to walk across Iceland, I was battered by wind relentlessly, ate nothing but semi-frozen chocolate bars, couldn\u2019t stop to rest because it was so cold, and saw my brother peel of the end of one of his toes. Yet by the definition of a holiday, it almost fits:\n\u2013 Leisure (time when one is not working or occupied) \u2013 I was not working and was occupied only by something I chose to do. Then again, we all choose to do something, even if that something is to go to work \u2013 we simply may not desire to do that thing.\n\u2013 Recreation (activity done for enjoyment when one is not working) \u2013 this certainly was done for enjoyment, however, I counter that it should be possible to find a job that you like doing. This definition of recreation seems to state that there are things you like doing and there is work. This disparity does not have to be reality.\n\u2013 Being away from home or in travelling \u2013 I certainly was travelling in the sense that I was moving continually, but as for being away from home, I don\u2019t really live anywhere anymore, thus my home is my backpack. Arguably I have a travelling home.\nSo was Iceland a holiday? I would say not, but it was something that I very much wanted to do and walking across Iceland was something I will always remember fondly \u2013 but never do again.\nAfter Iceland however, I did take what I would call a holiday. And I chose to go to Greece. This was partly motivated by the fact that I had just been in Iceland \u2013 which was very cold \u2013 and I had a desire to go somewhere warm. It was also motivated by the fact that I had been eating chocolate bars and uncooked instant noodles \u2013 which are not very delicious \u2013 and I find Greek cuisine to be my favourite in all the world (partly due to my ongoing vegetarianism). Having little money, I was also keen to find an abandoned building where I could squat and knew of Greece\u2019s many part built villas that might be suitable. Finally, my good friend whom I was travelling with, also loves Greece.\nAnd so it was decided. Warm weather, good food, and free accommodation lured me to spend my holidays in Greece, more specifically, Naxos. I didn\u2019t know anything about this island when I set off, but my budget flight whisked me into Athens and from there, I hitchhiked to the ferry port and picked an island at random. Was Naxos an extended period of leisure? Yes. Was it an extended period of recreation? Yes. Was it time spent away from home or in travelling? I\u2019m not sure \u2013 for the two weeks I was there, it was my home because I didn\u2019t have anywhere else to be. It was a good one.\nRead more about my time in Naxos:\nMy big, free Greek villa\nJeff Bronson *Kraven* 19/02/2015 at 07:27\t- Reply\nGreece is a far cry from eating ice cream in Iceland! I\u2019m in Goa, India at the moment from the U.S. and am looking forward to colder climates.\nYes it is \u2013 and Goa is a far cry from the US! I just went from the cold winter of Detroit through England, to an Australian summer. It has been quite a temperature change.\nRyan Biddulph 07/03/2015 at 08:11\t- Reply\nLove the article and I feel ya! Last month I went from the bitter cold and snow of NJ, caught in a serious cold spell and terrible winter, to the warmth and humidity of Bali. Loving it of course but between the jet lag and temp change it was quite a shock to the system. A much wanted shock,of course. A MUCH needed shock of course lol.\nI dig your detailing of a holiday too. Being a full time digital nomad I remind myself to get away from it all. In a few minutes I\u2019ll be ready to hit the pool. No excuses. Gotta get the away from it all time deal in because if not, I\u2019m missing one benefit of being a digital nomad, all the time.\nHappy to tweet this.\nIt sounds like a lovely shock. Enjoy your swim, have a cocktail, and read a good book in a hammock. You can do everything else \u2018tomorrow.\u2019",

        "title": "Op-Ed: Urging Shareholders to Vote Money Out of Politics \u2013 Green Century Funds",
        "raw_content": "Op-Ed: Urging Shareholders to Vote Money Out of Politics\nThis article was published May 7, 2014 in the Rock River Times and is available here.\nFree speech in America just got a lot more expensive. The recent McCutcheon Supreme Court decision has widened the floodgates through which special interest money can now flow. This decision, coming on the heels of the corporate spending opened by Citizens United in 2010, will make it even more challenging for ordinary citizens and U.S. consumers to make their voices heard. These consumers, however, are also often shareholders, and are increasingly concerned that their investments are being used by companies to gamble in the political process and drown out the consumer voice.\nThat\u2019s why next month, as companies hold their annual meetings across the country to showcase their achievements, they also will need to answer to shareholders whose funds have been spent on controversial public policy issues. Environmentally responsible investor Green Century Capital Management and consumer protection group U.S. PIRG are calling on Kraft Foods to stop spending shareholder funds to influence the outcome of political elections.\nCompanies that spend millions undermining key environmental and consumer protection initiatives risk alienating their consumer base and face significant brand and reputational risks.\nIn 2012, Kraft Foods was the fifth-largest contributor to \u201cNo on Prop 37\u201d in California,\u00b9 which would have let consumers know if their food contained genetically modified organisms (GMOs). When more than 90 percent of U.S. consumers believe products that contain GMOs should be labeled,\u00b2 Kraft\u2019s decision to spend millions blocking its customers\u2019 ability to make informed food purchases seems to be a poor business decision. Kraft shareholders saw how the media depicted companies\u2019 opposition to the initiative as anti-transparency and as preventing informed consumer choice, and are bringing a common-sense proposal for consideration to Kraft executives and shareholders.\nThere is reason to believe that shareholders\u2019 concerns will be heard. The public overwhelmingly disapproves of corporate money in politics, with more than 80 percent of Americans across party lines agreeing that there is \u201ctoo much money in politics,\u201d according to a 2012 Bannon Communications poll.\u00b3 In this context, it follows that corporations that spend millions of dollars to influence politics face significant financial risks associated with taking on controversial policy positions that alienate their consumer base.\nJust because the courts say that a company can spend unlimited amounts of dollars does not mean it should, and shareholders and the public have good cause to be concerned when companies do. Rather than spend millions of dollars drowning out the voice of their customers, Kraft should respect the old adage that the \u201ccustomer is always right\u201d and keep shareholder funds out of politics.\nLeslie Samuelrich is the President of Green Century Capital Management. Founded in 1991 by the state Public Interest Research Groups (PIRGs), Green Century Capital Management is an investment advisory firm that manages two fossil fuel-free mutual funds.\nDev Gowda is the Advocate for Illinois PIRG (Public Interest Research Group). The Public Interest Research Group is a consumer group that stands up to powerful interests whenever they threaten our health and safety, our financial security, or our right to fully participate in our democratic society.\n1 http://justlabelit.org/right-to-know/labeling-opponents/\n\u00b3 http://www.citizen.org/documents/bannon-communications-research-executive-summary.pdf",

Before making the location decision, I visited the area for the first time in two decades and was impressed with how the region has grown since my last visit,\u201d said Dennis Shea, publisher of Area Development. \u201cI think our conference guests will have a favorable impression.\u201d\nThe Greater Richmond Partnership, the localities it represents (the City of Richmond, and counties of Chesterfield, Hanover and Henrico) and Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP) recruited the conference to the region. Other localities throughout Virginia are supporting the summit. Hosting the conference will provide attendees with important insights about the location advisory process and how economic developers can be ready to respond more effectively to win projects.\n\u201cSite location consultants are involved in half of all economic development projects. As such, GRP has a very active engagement with them, including a partnership with the Greater Richmond Association for Commercial Real Estate (GRACRE),\u201d said Jennifer Wakefield, senior vice president of marketing for GRP. \u201cBut hosting an event of this caliber with more than 25 top site location consultants from around the country is a huge win for our region. We\u2019re thrilled to be able to show off the region to this group.\u201d\nAbout the Virginia Economic Development Partnership\nThe Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP) was created by the Virginia General Assembly in 1995 to encourage, stimulate, and support development and expansion of the Commonwealth\u2019s economy. To accomplish these objectives, the Partnership focuses on business recruitment, expansion, and international trade. VEDP has offices in Virginia, Germany, Japan, and South Korea.

The traveler will start this tour at one of the coziest gardens in Portugal: the cold green house in Eduardo VII park.\nThis is a real green museum where plans and flowers from the five continents grow harmoniously together under a huge planked roof that beautifully regulates the air temperature and intensity of light. It has an area of about 16000 square meters and includes and Hot greenhouse for tropical plants, and a sweet greenhouse for larger plants.\nNot far away we have the biggest botanical garden of Lisbon. Covering 10 acres and laid out between 1858 and 1873, it was once considered the best botanical garden of Southern Europe. Today it still has one of the largest collections of subtropical vegetation in Europe. Its dense vegetation and exotic plants make it one of the most calming spots in the city, with over 18000 species from all over the world (each one is neatly labeled). They include a large number of cycads, weird Australian trees with twisting colossal trunks, and ancient palm-ferns that have been around since the time of the dinosaurs.\nClose by is the Port wine institute where you can try one of the 1000 different Port wine brands! Let\u2019s go to Sintra ot have lunch in one of the many good and typical restaurants and visit Pena park. The Pena park is a vast forested area completely surrounding the Pena palace, spreading for over 200 hectares of uneven terrain.\nThe exotic taste of the Romanticism was applied to the parks as it was to the palace. The king ordered trees from diverse, distant lands to be planted there. Included in his requests were the North American Sequoia, Lawson\u2019s Cypress, Magnolia and Western Redcedar, Chinese Gingko, Japanese Cryptomeria, and a wide variety of ferns and tree ferns from Australia and New Zealand concentrated in the Queen\u2019s Fern Garden (Feteira da Rainha). The park has a labyrinthic system of paths and narrow roads, connecting the palace to the many points of interest throughout the park, as well as to its two gated exits.\nStill in Sintra we\u2019ll visit Monserrate gardens. Marvellous, rambling, party wild, Monserrate Park is a romantic 30-hectare garden. The wooded hillsides feature a vast range of exotic flora, from roses and conifers to Chinese weeping cypress, dragon trees, eucalyptus, Himalayan rhododendrons and more than 24 species of palm. These gardens were created in the 18th century. In the 1850s, they were enlarged by the painter William Stockdale (with help from London\u2019s Kew Gardens), who imported many plants from Australia and Mexico.

I almost didn\u2019t go, because it was a bit of a drive and I had so much else to do and I hadn\u2019t promised anyone I\u2019d show up, but in the end the cuteness factor won out and off I went. I\u2019m glad I did. Not only did I get to gaze at all the adorable furry faces and browse the vendor stalls like I expected, I got to see something I didn\u2019t even know existed: alpaca obstacle course. Think dog agility at a slower pace with smaller obstacles and bigger animals. There was a teeter totter and a jump and cones to weave through and several other challenges. It was great fun to watch. Some of the animals were obviously very well trained and experienced and just flowed through the course and some were more hesitant and a few decided rearing up on their hind legs or pulling backwards on their leads was better than whatever their handlers wanted them to be doing at the time. It was quite entertaining.\nComments Off on Fuzzy Goodness",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Choosing Books / Horn Book Magazine / Who Is \u201cThe Child\u201d?\nI remember my childhood vividly: what it felt like, what I thought about, what I did and said as opposed to what other children did and said. My views on the variety of types of children were, and are, the same as my views on the variety of types of adults. So it always comes as a shock to me to hear people talk about \u201cthe child.\u201d I\u2019m never sure what child they mean.\nI have a sister who is two years older than I am, and we were never anything alike. There\u2019s a truly distressing snapshot of the two of us at ages seven and nine, sitting on a park bench. We are dressed alike, but that\u2019s where the likeness stops, because she was fat and I was emaciated. We are wearing identical cotton dresses with puffed sleeves, and my arms hang as loosely in those sleeves as the clappers in a pair of bells, while my sister\u2019s cuffs are like tourniquets. A sorry sight, indeed. We were different in more important ways, too. She was an excellent student, while I was what the teachers now tactfully refer to as an underachiever. She was gregarious, and I was pretty much of a hermit. If anyone had tried to define either one of us as the child, the confusion would have been monumental.\nPeople say to me occasionally, \u201cDo you have the child in mind when you write?\u201d What child? Myself? My sister? Or, possibly, Tempy Pitts? Tempy Pitts \u2014 whose full name was Temperance Pitts \u2014 has assumed for me by now something of the status of a folk hero. She was in my sister\u2019s class in third grade, and she was a member of one of those families from West Virginia and Kentucky who, in those days, came across the Ohio River when summer was over to find work in the southern Ohio factories. Our town was the home of Armco Steel and attracted great numbers of these families \u2014 known locally as \u201cpoor white trash\u201d \u2014 who would dutifully enroll their children in the schools and then, at the end of the school year, go home again back across the river and live all summer on what they\u2019d earned. This particular fall, my sister\u2019s third-grade teacher was taking her students through the annual September ritual of telling what they\u2019d done during the vacation. When it was Tempy Pitt\u2019s turn and the teacher said, \u201cNow, Tempy, tell us what you did last summer,\u201d Tempy stood up and said, \u201cAw, ah juss run up \u2018n down a mountain \u2018n eat a piece of bread.\u201d\nSo do I have Tempy Pitt in mind when I write? Of course. Tempy is always in my mind, I\u2019m happy to say. I am less happy to say that Norma Cox is also always in my mind. Norma Cox was in my class. She was little and even thinner than I was, and her clothes were even thinner than that, and we all avoided her because she smelled very bad indeed. I was once kind to Norma Cox for half an hour at recess and will never forget the surprise and gratitude in her pinched little face. I then, with the supreme cruelty of childhood, ignored her ever after, feeling that I had done my duty and could face my Sunday school teacher with a clear conscience.\nSo, yes, I have Norma Cox in mind, but also Janie Dorner. Janie Dorner was blond and beautiful, with shiny straight hair and sweaters that matched her socks, and she was always smiling, in spite of the fact that her older sister, equally beautiful, was an epileptic who sometimes had seizures in school.\nThere was Beth McKinnon, who passed through my second grade only briefly. She was, as I recall, a certified genius who could draw like Leonardo da Vinci when she was only seven and was soon placed in some special school where she could blossom. Before she came, I was the best artist in my class. I was the one who got to draw the princess for our frieze of the story about the princess on the glass mountain. Beth put my nose out of joint, and I was very glad when she left. Do I write for Beth McKinnon? Certainly not. Let her write her own stories.\nThere was June Green, who didn\u2019t have much hair and who had to miss a chunk of third grade when one of her many siblings got bitten by a mad dog and the whole family had to get dreadful, debilitating hydrophobia shots. June was shy and pale and earnest. But Jane Rettig was ruddy and assertive, even in grammar school. She had frizzy hair and a big nose and gave great birthday parties. And there was Marsha Klein, who was fat and had a face like an English muffin. Her grandfather had had a stroke and used to sit on the Kleins\u2019 front porch and mumble and drool. Marsha Klein spent her summers in Montana and expected everyone to be impressed by the fact. I guess I was impressed; I\u2019ve remembered those vacations for more than forty years. And then there was Sudie Riley, who was spoiled and had mountains of toys. Sudie Riley once slammed down, on purpose, her overhead garage door on her kitten. As for boys, I fell in love in the first grade with Dwight Neill and was faithful to him until we moved away in the middle of sixth grade. My mother, driving by the school once while we were out for recess in second grade, saw me corner Dwight among the bicycle racks and kiss him. He was very handsome, and I didn\u2019t, and don\u2019t, apologize.\nAnd there was, ever and always, my hero, my sister, with her stunningly large vocabulary and her tree house where she read Little Women and Oliver Twist; she sobbed up there among the catalpa pods while I, down below, in answer to some obscure diabolical urge, occasionally strung up a noose or two and lynched my dolls, a ritual which seemed to worry no one.\nSo, tell me, who is the child we hear so much about? The children I remember had precious little in common. Well, I\u2019ll tell you who the child is. The child is a construction put together by adults, that\u2019s who. The child, once out of diapers, does not cry. The child is beautiful and honest and never without a Kleenex. The child watches some television but accepts parental guidance cheerfully and would rather read, anyway. The child is clean all the time except when being picturesquely dirty. The child is never sick except for measles, mumps, and chicken pox, which are passed through with forbearance, dispatch, and without scratching. The child is not afraid of the dark or of swimming or dogs or Great Aunt Hepzibah\u2019s mustache. The child has better manners than Amy Vanderbilt. The child will qualify for Harvard without ever having been a bookworm or a grind. The child, in short, will go out into the world and stun everyone, especially jealous relatives, with his or her splendid genetic make-up and obviously superior parenting, a combination of nature and nurture impossible to improve on, thereby insuring lasting self-satisfaction for \u201cthe parent.\u201d\nThe child, then, is as utterly different from anyone we know personally as are children. Children, once you get past our national concept of them as \u201cThe Future,\u201d are not necessarily desirable or attractive on a day-to-day basis. And they are certainly not important except insofar as they will someday be adults. Childhood is something to be got through as quickly as possible so you can get to the good stuff that comes with maturity, and one part of the good stuff is evidently the privilege of looking back and being sentimental about childhood. This means, of course, that one\u2019s own childhood was either sweet beyond the dreams of Paradise or difficult beyond the novels of Charles Dickens. So maybe it would be more accurate to say that one\u2019s own self as a child was important, but children, in general, are not. In the eyes of the world they\u2019re not, anyway. If they were, we would pay our elementary school teachers a living wage.\nLet\u2019s face it: children are not a power group. This is largely because they don\u2019t have any money. If they had any money, we\u2019d probably let them vote. But they don\u2019t. They also don\u2019t have any experience \u2014 that golden quality, so hard won, that makes it possible for us adults to conduct our lives without any mistakes in judgment, without any problems, without noise or social disruption or unreasonable behavior of any kind. Children are also unfinished as to education. They have not yet read Proust, like us, and they don\u2019t know what words the singers are singing when they go to the opera, and they don\u2019t read The New York Times front to back every day the way we do. And they don\u2019t know how to spell rhinoceros. We, of course, all know how to spell rhinoceros. The ability to spell rhinoceros is one of the hallmarks of an educated person, and children have yet to come to it.\nIt is for these reasons that people who write children\u2019s books are suspect. The world looks at us in a puzzled way and wonders, \u201cWhy devote your life to writing for a group that has no money, no experience, and can\u2019t spell rhinoceros? Such writing can\u2019t be serious.\u201d And it isn\u2019t just we writers. My husband once worked for Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, and one time at a party I talked to the chief of pediatric services. He told me gloomily that pediatric services are classed among other medical services just as children\u2019s writers are classed among other writers. So if it has to do with children, let\u2019s face it \u2014 it\u2019s got no clout.\nSome of my colleagues are very defensive about their work. Many say sniffily that they don\u2019t write for children; they write to please themselves. Beatrix Potter even said so. But I say, \u201cHorse-feathers.\u201d All writers hope to please themselves by what they write, but it seems to me that it\u2019s possible to please oneself at the same time as one is writing for, and hoping to please, children. Why not? Why should those two things be mutually exclusive?\nNow, I want you to understand that when I use the term children, I do not mean it to include teenagers. Teenagers are something else again. One does not call them children in their presence and expect to be applauded. In fact, they aren\u2019t children, technically, because they aren\u2019t powerless. It\u2019s doubtful that they have much experience, and my guess is that few of them can spell rhinoceros, but they\u2019ve got money. So they have the most telling kind of importance. I read somewhere recently that the big spender now for movies is a fourteen-year-old boy. Hollywood producers are taking this into account. And that\u2019s clout.\nWriters of books for teenagers are higher up on the prestige scale than writers of books for the prepubescent group. This is because the public is afraid of teenagers and imagines that people who write for them have some inside track on understanding them. I imagine this myself. My picture of the situation is that during the teenage years, people are far more alike than they were as children and far more alike than they will be as adults. This picture makes of life a sort of hourglass with the top part labeled childhood, the squeezed-in neck part labeled teenagers, and the bottom labeled adulthood.\nOr let me put that another way. Childhood is South America, in all its warm and infinite variety from Rio to the Andes. Adulthood is North America with its cold Canadian fronts and all that open land demanding to be dug up and built on. And the teenage years are the Panama Canal \u2014 hot and volatile, with everyone in battle fatigues, looking just like Fidel Castro, and utterly inscrutable.\nWell, I am probably wrong. But I was a teenager in that pointless and arid period between Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley and so have grown up uninitiated. I collected Mario Lanza records. When I went away to college and was feeling lonely and homesick, I\u2019d just slip up to my room and put on a recording of Lanza singing \u201cBe My Love.\u201d A person who is turned on by \u201cBe My Love\u201d is not going to feel common cause with the Rolling Stones.\nSo, anyway, teenagers are not children, and I don\u2019t write for them. This has caused no outcry in the high schools, so it\u2019s all right. My books are for children \u2014 specifically, I guess, for the last best year of childhood, the fifth grade. And I resent fifth graders being lumped together into some great unformed ball of clay called the child.\nThere are a lot of special things about fifth grade. Or, at least, there were a lot of special things about my fifth grade. I didn\u2019t know I didn\u2019t have any clout, you see. I didn\u2019t realize that money was important, and I was never asked to spell rhinoceros. There was a war on \u2014 we were all very much aware of that \u2014 but I didn\u2019t read the newspapers from front to back to keep up on its progress. And although I was in love with Dwight Neill, it was as innocent a love in fifth grade as in any fairy tale. It became, rather suddenly, less innocent in sixth grade when, for the first time, I agreed to play Post Office at a birthday party, but we moved away before any harm was done.\nI don\u2019t want to hear about the child, that mythical monster whom we are all supposed to have in mind when we write. I only have in mind myself and all my fifth-grade colleagues: Selby Smallwood, who was retarded; Marcia Ellison, my airheaded best friend; Larry Jones, who died of leukemia; Donald Crawley, the class jock who threw up in class and destroyed his image; Georgie Bach, who loved me; Ruth Upton, who didn\u2019t. We were not the child; we were people. Separate, distinct, with different dreams and different sorrows. If we were the future then, now we are in large part the past. But all of us at any given moment are the present, and that is what matters. Our childhoods, our adulthoods, and our old age are only a long series of nows, a continuing present where we are always people, first and foremost, separate and distinct, regardless of our age.\nFrom the March/April 1986 issue of The Horn Book Magazine.

        "title": "Acupuncture vs. Opioids for Pain Relief",
        "raw_content": "Why People Are Choosing Acupuncture Over Opioids for Pain Relief\nWritten by Temma Ehrenfeld on June 5, 2018\nThe ancient form of alternative medicine is growing in popularity as a viable treatment for a range of conditions.\nIn the midst of the opioid crisis, acupuncture has been growing in popularity in the United States.\nPrimarily used for pain management, this ancient Chinese form of alternative medicine \u2014 which involves thin needles being inserted into the skin \u2014 has gained support from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and Medicaid as a viable treatment in recent years.\nWhile the scientific evidence of acupuncture\u2019s benefits is still widely debated, research from key Western studies suggests it can be used to manage certain pain conditions \u2014 especially back and neck pain, osteoarthritis pain, and headaches.\nIt\u2019s also been used to treat a range of other conditions. And as its popularity has grown, more people in the United States have begun turning to acupuncture when conventional medicine falls short.\nResearchers are still trying to determine whether acupuncture can be a beneficial treatment for various health ailments. However, for those who may be seeking alternative options for hard-to-treat conditions, here are four areas in which acupuncture may help.\nHeidi Boyson had suffered from chronic low back pain for a decade when she tried acupuncture for the first time in England.\nShe\u2019d already tried chiropractors, physical therapy, and medication. \u201cNothing worked,\u201d she told Heathline. \u201cThe acupuncturist put needles in my head and I fell asleep, which was great. When I woke up, I was much more relaxed.\u201d\nAfter just one visit, Boyson says her pain became manageable.\nWestern research has shown that acupuncture can be effective in managing pain. Exactly why it works is still unclear, though there are several theories.\nThe first written account of acupuncture, in \u201cThe Yellow Emperor\u2019s Classic of Internal Medicine,\u201d dates to 100 B.C. in China. The theory behind the practice suggests the stimulation of specific spots prompts the body to release a flow of energy, or \u201cqi,\u201d which travels through \u201cmeridians.\u201d\nThe Western explanation: The needle stimulates a nerve, which sends a signal to the brain to release beta-endorphins. These chemicals work as the body\u2019s own opioids, lowering pain thresholds.\nAnother theory proposes acupuncture changes cells in connective tissue around the pressure points in lasting ways that lead to less pain.\nThere is also evidence that stimulating the vagus nerve, which runs from the brain stem to the colon, may lower inflammation throughout the body. Inflammation is closely tied to chronic pain.\nStates looking to cut opioid prescriptions have been experimenting with extending Medicaid coverage for acupuncture as another option for pain treatment. Rhode Island, Oregon, and Ohio all have programs that extend coverage in part.\nWhen Vermont commissioned a small pilot study on acupuncture for chronic pain in its Medicaid population, it concluded that 32 percent of people taking opioids for pain cut back. They were eligible for up to 12 treatments over two months.\nThe U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has trained more than 2,800 providers of \u201cbattlefield acupuncture,\u201d a protocol that involves the ear to relieve pain.\nAccording to Charles Levy, a doctor at the Gainesville VA center in Florida, the protocol has helped with headaches, acute and chronic back and musculoskeletal pain, and neuropathic pain.\nBut the result depends dramatically on the pain, the practitioner, and the patient.\nLast year, when Boyson was coping with occasional migraines, she went to an acupuncturist in New York City.\n\u201cTraditional medicine wasn\u2019t helping, and [the acupuncturist] was lovely and affordable,\u201d Boyson said, adding she\u2019d feel good after each visit, but this time the effects didn\u2019t stick.\nOne analysis looked at seven studies that compared the effect of acupuncture against a sham acupuncture procedure to treat tension headaches. The group that received the sham procedure had headaches 7 to 16 days a month, while those who had the real deal suffered two fewer headachy days. Everyone had a minimum of six weekly treatments.\nNarda Robinson, an osteopath who uses acupuncture, says that when she treats headaches, she does a careful examination of not only the patient\u2019s head, but also the neck and back and posture.\n\u201cI am accustomed to whole-person medicine \u2014 not focusing on one part at the exclusion of others,\u201d she told Heathline.\nTreating neurologic injury\nRobinson, who runs CuraCore Integrative Medicine & Education Center in Fort Collins, Colorado, is also a veterinarian.\nShe\u2019s seen acupuncture work wonders with both people and dogs suffering from nerve damage.\nStimulating acupuncture points in dogs with paralyzed hind legs has allowed them to walk, she says.\n\u201cMy veterinary colleagues and I witness remarkable turnarounds in dogs with thoracolumbar spinal cord injury from disc disease\u201d she said.\nAnother remarkable turnaround happened to an environmental scientist in his 50s who came to see her for acupuncture.\nBecause of a car accident 20 years earlier, he couldn\u2019t smile fully on one side of his face or clearly enunciate. His face, hands, and feet were numb.\nBut soon after she treated him, he began to regain sensation and motor skills he had been told would never return.\n\u201cAt every visit, he\u2019d report on how he could now feel the fine edges of the computer keyboard, use his fingers well enough to button his own shirt, and smile as well as speak more normally,\u201d Robinson said.\nBut can acupuncture reliably help serious neurological problems?\n\u201cIt\u2019s certainly something that should be explored more intensively in human spinal cord injury clinics, both to facilitate recovery and reduce the need for surgery,\u201d Robinson said.\nHowever, the research so far has been mostly inconclusive. A 2015 meta-analysis of acupuncture to recover after spinal cord injury found only 12 studies, which did show improvements in motor function and functioning.\nYet a 2018 meta-analysis by the Cochrane group of whether acupuncture helps stroke survivors found more than 30 studies on the subject, and it was inconclusive.\nNevertheless, Robinson argues that the evidence is promising enough. She believes people with nerve damage should be offered acupuncture, especially if they have few other options.\nThe same logic might apply to hard-to-treat pain. In 2018, four U.S. anesthesiologists conducted an overview of nondrug treatments for fibromyalgia (a condition marked by fatigue and pain in many spots of the body). They concluded that meditation and cognitive behavioral therapy were more promising than acupuncture. But because it rarely causes any harm, they wrote it also \u201cshould not be discouraged.\u201d\nPromoting weight loss\nNew strategies to lose weight are usually a fad. There is no gold-star research \u2014 large, controlled, randomized studies \u2014 to support a case for acupuncture to shed pounds.\nBut there is some early positive evidence.\nTwo points in the ear have traditionally been associated with appetite. A 2017 review found 18 randomized controlled studies of ear acupuncture for weight loss, though not big ones \u2014 the largest had only 200 participants.\nThe review concluded that ear acupuncture was linked to an average loss of about 3 pounds. Treatments that went on longer than six weeks had the best results.\nLots of research is underway on the effect of a person\u2019s microbiome, the bacteria inside the body, on weight gain. One small Shanghai study has found that acupuncture reduced the number of Bacteroidetes, which are more plentiful in those who are obese.\nDespite the widespread use of probiotics, we don\u2019t yet have targeted ways of changing our gut flora.\nIn this study, among the 30 women who received acupuncture, the average BMI dropped from close to 28 to a bit over 25, and their Bacteroidetes levels also fell. A small control group didn\u2019t lose much weight or see the same favorable changes in their gut flora.\nThere is some data suggesting that electro acupuncture is more effective than needles alone for weight loss, according to another overview.\nAcupuncture may dampen inflammation, which is related to obesity as well as pain. If it relieves pain or anxiety, that could help people avoid overeating too.\n\u201cI don\u2019t see acupuncture as having that big an effect on obesity itself, but more on addressing problems with pain and mood,\u201d Robinson said.\nTaming nausea\nThe National Cancer Institute and other major medical organizations in the United States and Europe regard acupuncture as an appropriate treatment for post-chemotherapy nausea and vomiting.\nA meta-analysis of 30 randomized and controlled trials involving more than 2,500 volunteers concluded that stimulating various acupuncture points cut nausea and vomiting within hours or a day after surgery, which is a common reaction to anesthesia.\nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) is supporting research on acupuncture as a treatment for a range of conditions, including whether it can cut hot flashes, help manage pain related to chemotherapy, and reducing the severity of tinnitus.\nThe opioid crisis has also revived interest in acupuncture not just for pain relief, but also for relaxation to help wean people from addictions.\nMore research is needed to fully understand all the benefits acupuncture might offer. But until then, people seeking alternatives for hard-to-treat conditions may find relief through this Eastern approach to medicine.\n\u201cConventional medicine is at a crossroads,\u201d Robinson said. \u201cThe drugs-and-surgery dominant approach [to pain] is costly and incomplete\u201d and patients end up \u201cmisdiagnosed and overmedicated for problems medical acupuncture\u201d could help.\nAcupuncture for Psoriasis\nLearn about the benefits and risks of using acupuncture for psoriasis.",

        "title": "Keeping Cool! - Healthy Performance",
        "raw_content": "The Healthy Blog Keeping Cool!\nWith most of the UK in the midst of a mini heat wave, we wanted to highlight the impact of hydration during this time of year to maintain a healthy lifestyle.\nBeing dehydrated can have a negative effect on our alertness and concentration, the quality of our work, even our personal safety and that of others around us. It is therefore important to prioritise hydration in order to maintain our mental and physical wellbeing.\nA loss of just 2% water can cause a huge 20% reduction in the performance and our hydration status is a delicate balance, so much so that experts rank water only second to oxygen as the most essential ingredient for life. Our bodies can only last around 48 hours without water, whereas we could go a whole month without food! Water also plays a vital role in maintaining a cooler body temperature which is essential in the heat! Did you know that every day, our bodies lose between half to one litre of water every day just from breathing!? So when the hot weather is upon us, it\u2019s essential to maintain a good level of hydration.\nBut in the working environment how can we monitor this and act to maintain healthy hydration levels? It is well documented that workers often do not only become dehydrated on the job, but may also start the day with a fluid deficit. It is estimated that 80% of workers go through their normal day in a mildly dehydrated state and if an employee arrives to work dehydrated, there is a 90% chance that this won\u2019t get any better throughout the day.\nAnd working in an air conditioned office can speed up moisture evaporation from our skin so we end up with increased water loss and the need to drink more water. The most effective strategy is to prevent dehydration by regularly taking on fluid throughout the day. The most important note here is NOT to wait until you feel thirsty before you have a drink, as this is technically the first stage of dehydration.\nOther drinks such as alcohol, coffee and tea work as a diuretic. In other words, they extract water from the body. So it is best to cut out or significantly reduce the amount of fizzy drinks or caffeine that is consumed during your day. Encouraging hydration can have a positive impact on your company\u2019s overall performance and safety record, as well as the general wellbeing and health of your staff.\nSo here are some top tips for keeping cool in the summer\n1. In the office, try and get a good flow of air through!\nA cool breeze will help take the edge off the heat and this can help with body temperature but it also has a very positive psychological effect when the weather is very hot!\n2. Put your hands in cold water\nFill the sink with cold water and put your hands in as when your deep body temperature rises, blood is sent to the surface of the skin. As soon as the deep body temperature returns to normal, it slows the blood flow to your hands and you\u2019ll feel cool.\n3. Use an electric fan!\nIf you use a fan, make sure you direct the flow of air to your face because even though you\u2019re not cooling down your whole body, fanning your face will appear to keep you very cool! If you are using a manual fan beware that fanning too vigorously can increase your body temperature which has the opposite effect.\n4. Drink cold water regularly\nAim to have a glass of water every 90minutes to regulate body temperature and maintain hydration levels. If you are very active in your job then you might need to take water on board every 45minutes to maintain a healthy hydration level.\n5. Take a lukewarm (NOT COLD) shower!\nWhen the temperature gets really hot, it might seem tempting to stand under a freezing cold shower however the body will react by preserving heat so the best option would be a lukewarm shower when your body can release the heat.\n6. Check your Urine colour!\nOk, it\u2019s not the nicest thing to talk about but if you feel tired, get headaches or feel hungry, it\u2019s possible this could stem from how hydrated you are. So next time you go to the toilet check the colour, if it\u2019s clear (like water) that\u2019s great, if it\u2019s a yellowy/darker colour then you need to take on more water! See the hydration chart below to see where you are today!",

        "raw_content": "Teachers in the Mukilteo School District jammed a school board meeting Monday night, urging elected officials to renegotiate salaries. Less than two hours earlier, the teachers\u2019 union passed a vote of no confidence in Superintendent Marci Larsen and gave a bargaining team authority to call for a strike if there is not a tentative agreement to consider by Aug. 15 . (Andrea Brown / The Herald)\nMukilteo teachers authorize strike and pack another meeting\nThey brought their contract beef to school district headquarters for a third time.\nMUKILTEO \u2014 Amid testy salary talks, Mukilteo teachers Monday took a vote of no confidence in Superintendent Marci Larsen and gave a bargaining committee authority to call a strike if there is no tentative agreement to consider by Aug. 15.\nTeachers from across the district met at Kamiak High School after classes were dismissed Monday afternoon for a general membership meeting of their union. Roughly 250 teachers were reported to have taken part.\nThe district\u2019s teachers will take a second vote of no confidence \u2014 this one electronically \u2014 so those who did not attend the meeting will have a chance to have their say, according to union leaders.\nAfter the votes, teachers brought their contract beef to school district headquarters. For the third time in a month, they jammed into a meeting room to urge the board to renegotiate the salary portion of their contract.\n\u201cWe met with them on Friday and we offered a proposal which we thought was pretty generous,\u201d district spokesman Andy Muntz said after Monday\u2019s meeting. He didn\u2019t specify the details.\nThe flashpoint is the union\u2019s demand to bargain over how the district spends an infusion of state dollars as a result of the McCleary school funding lawsuit. The union wants to renegotiate its contract, which runs through August 2019, to secure the money for salaries. The district has rejected their request.\n\u201cThe ball is in the district\u2019s court,\u201d Mukilteo Education Association President Dana Wiebe said after the school board meeting. \u201cWe just want to bargain. We want professional competitive wages for our teachers. We want to hire the best, we want to keep the best. That\u2019s always been our goal, to get to the table and have some good faith negotiations with the district.\u201d\nLarsen is one of Snohomish County\u2019s longest-standing school district superintendents. She has led the district since 2003. The district, which includes schools in Everett, Mukilteo and unincorporated areas, has an enrollment of more than 15,000 students. There were more than 880 teachers in the district during the 2016-2017 school year, according to state records.\nTalks have been up and down in recent weeks.\nWiebe said a meeting Friday with the school district\u2019s bargaining team went well, and it seemed that things were on course.\nWiebe said she was perplexed by an email sent later that day by Assistant Superintendent Bruce Hobert. \u201cIt basically says that after talking to the board they want to talk to lawyers,\u201d she said of the email.\nSalary remains a sticking point for the teachers, along with other issues such as Family Medical Leave Act issues and shared leave.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t want to reopen the whole contract,\u201d Wiebe said. \u201cWe are only looking at the pieces.\u201d\nDuring Monday\u2019s meeting, the school board listened to five teachers, two union presidents, including one from the Lake Washington School District, and a couple of parents, but made no comments.\nIn the McCleary court case, parents and teachers successfully sued to force the state to amply fund basic education, including wages of school employees. Since the 2012 decision, lawmakers have boosted school funding by roughly $9 billion, including $1 billion this year and $1 billion last year for educator salaries.\nEarnings of most Snohomish County teachers are already above the new state benchmarks because their districts use local levy collections to pay higher salaries. Lawmakers capped what districts can raise through their own levies and limited how those dollars are spent.\nSome funds will be used to increase state funding to ensure a statewide average salary for teachers to $71,711, for classified staff to $51,437 and for administrators to $106,473. There is also money for a cost-of-living increase for all teachers.\nIn Mukilteo, a new teacher with a bachelor of arts degree will make $51,856 while an instructor with at least 25 years of experience and a doctorate will earn at least $99,949. Roughly a third of a veteran teacher\u2019s salary now comes from local dollars.\nJerry Cornfield contributed to this story.\nAndrea Brown: abrown@heraldnet.com; 425-339-3443.

        "raw_content": "2019 Best Herpes Dating Sites For Herpes Singles\nHerpes dating sites work by creating a community of herpes singles and providing a safe, anonymous, shame-free environment for them to interact in. Unfortunately, our society unfairly looks down on people who have sexually transmitted diseases, even though HSV-1 and HSV-2 are extremely common. As such, herpes singles often suffer from romantic rejection and stigmatization.\nWith herpes dating websites you do not have to worry about stigmatization or having an uncomfortable conversation with a new lover. They value your privacy above almost everything else, so if you are not transparent about your diagnosis you don\u2019t have to worry that one of these websites will spill the beans.

The only downside is that there is no free membership, but a lifetime membership is fairly inexpensive.\nRead Our Full HWerks Review\n#4: STDFriends.com\nSTDFriends\nThis herpes dating site puts the emphasis on friendship, not strictly romance, so you can find your likeminded tribe at STD Friends.

Why not try out the free membership and then upgrade if you like the platform? This particular online dating platform operates a lot like a social network, but its membership base is not as big as some of the other sites available.\nRead Our Full STDFriends Review\n#5: DatePositive.net\nDatePositive\nThis herpes dating site has been around for over a decade and is one of the most popular ones in the United Kingdom. If you aren\u2019t from the UK, no problem, you can still sign up but unfortunately, members from outside the UK are not as active. It\u2019s easy enough for people who are not from the UK to connect and chat but logistically it might be difficult to meet up.

You can connect with others fairly easily and the community is welcoming and friendly. The platform is also 100 percent free and accessible to all. The only downside is that the user interface is a little difficult to maneuver, so techies might want to skip this particular website. If you can get past the cumbersome front end, you will find a great community of like-minded people that will support you. You might even find some long-term romance. STD Soulmates seems geared towards people who are more serious about dating, as opposed to having a quick fling, so if you want a relationship this might be the right website for you to check out.\nRead Our Full STDSoulmates Review\n#8: H-YPE.com\nH-YPE\nThis herpes dating site also welcomes people which HPV, which is a growing segment of the population. One of the best parts is that you can actually schedule meetups in real life with people from all around the world and they have audio, video and instant messaging so you can connect through your method of choice in a secure and safe environment. There are tons of privacy features, making H-YPE one of the premier sites for people dating with STDs. Memberships vary, but the top price is roughly around $50 USD per year.\nRead Our Full H-YPE Review\nAre herpes dating sites right for you?\nThe online world offers so many dating options for people with sexually transmitted diseases, but are herpes dating sites really right for you? You should ask yourself a few questions before delving into making a profile on one of these sites. Of course, you could always set up on online profile and also still utilize other platforms like Tinder if you would like.\nYou need to remember that the people on these websites are only those who are aware that they have sexually transmitted diseases. Even though there is a large portion of the population who might be infected and not yet know it, they are unlikely to be on these websites. Therefore, your dating pool will be a lot smaller. Some people who have herpes, genital warts, HIV or other sexually transmitted diseases prefer to date on \u201cregular\u201d apps and platforms and then just tell their potential partners about their STD status. You will want to ask yourself, \u201cam I willing to deal with a smaller dating pool if it means that I will not be stigmatized for my sexually transmitted disease status\u201d?\nAdditionally, there are some people who think that having separate websites for people with STDs encourage discrimination against people who test positive for sexually transmitted diseases. Ella Dawson, in her article suggests that having separate dating websites for people with sexually transmitted diseases only stigmatizes the community further and does real damage.\nWherever you fall on the spectrum, understand that there are pros and cons to each. The good thing is that you have a lot of options and testing positive for an STD will not limit your romantic life severely. There are plenty of other people just like you.",

Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust has some suggestions\nHERTS and Middlesex Wildlife Trust is working to create a living landscape in Hertfordshire a network of rich habitats throughout the county that will support both wildlife and people. Key to this goal is the preservation and enhancement of areas that are already important for wildlife and recreation.\nThe Stort Valley is without a doubt such an area and the Trusts Connecting People with the Stort Valley Project is all about putting it on the map as a great place to go. There are amazing wildlife and recreation opportunities to be found in this relatively unspoilt part of the county, and were helping to create a diverse living landscape for everyone to enjoy.\nThe Stort Valley provides a fantastic habitat for freshwater fish, dragonflies, butterflies and other insects, wildfowl, otters and hopefully soon water voles. You can travel the length of the River Stort from Bishops Stortford down to where the river meets the River Lea in Hoddesdon by narrow boat, canoe, bike, on foot and by train.\nIn 2007 a study carried out in the Stort Valley showed that many local residents were unaware of the wonderful nature reserves in their area and many more would like to have better access to the tow path and open spaces. The Connecting People with the Stort Valley Project was created to help the people discover the natural and social heritage of the Stort Valley and its open spaces. The project offers a wide range of activities from canal boat trips and guided mountain bike rides to wildlife identification courses, guided walks through the local nature reserves and the odd bit of pond dipping. Residents and visitors alike will soon see new directional signs, leaflets and interpretation boards, providing useful information for years to come.\nProject Officer Amy Wheeler has been busy promoting the Stort through a number of events and activities. Over 15 canal boat trips with local community groups, six volunteer warden-led walks around wonderful nature reserves, four wildlife ID courses (for absolute beginners) and four family events are already planned for the next 12 months. In addition, further walks, talks and educational activities can be arranged to suit local community groups with an interest in the Stort.\nAll of the events you can take part in can be found on www.stortvalley.org and in the dedicated Stort Valley leaflet available from HMWT and other Stort Valley partners, local libraries and points of interest.\nWe hope that this flurry of activity will combine to create a real excitement about this lovely valley, bordering both Hertfordshire and Essex, and will offer thousands of people the chance to get much closer to the outdoors whether its for sport, recreation, relaxation, wildlife watching or curiosity about whats out there.\nJunior Angling Event\n11am 4pm. Follow signs on Hallingbury Road.\nHMWT have teamed up with Sawbridgeworth Angling Society to offer the chance for children of all ages to try out fishing for the first time. You will be coached by experienced fishermen and get the chance to learn about the different fish you can catch in your local lakes and rivers. Fun for all the family. Come along and get hooked on fishing!\nTo find out more about the Stort Valley, its nature reserves and how you can get involved, contact Amy Wheeler on 01727 858901 or amy.wheeler@hmwt.org or visit www.stortvalley.org",

        "title": "Why Grocers Shouldn\u2019t Dismiss Traditional Financing for Energy Improvements",
        "raw_content": "Why You Shouldn\u2019t Dismiss Traditional Financing for Energy Improvements\nThe initial cost of energy-efficiency retrofits is the single biggest hurdle to initiating projects. That\u2019s because the cost of a project is more salient than the amount of money to be saved by energy efficiency. But what if you compare the cost of a project with the cost of energy wasted instead?\nThe two propositions are the same, but the second one shifts focus to costs on both sides of the equation. A retrofit project costs money, but so does not doing a project, especially for grocery stores, where energy consumption is among the highest of all commercial buildings and profit-margins are thin.\nIn a typical grocery store, about 90 percent of end-use energy is accounted for by refrigeration (56%), lighting (22%), and HVAC (12%). Energy-efficiency upgrades affecting these areas could reduce the electric bill by as much as $10,000 per month in a 50,000 square-foot store (based on $0.11/kWh). In this scenario, the store is paying $10,000 a month to use more energy than it needs to.\nProject- and store-specifics vary, of course, but this paints a pretty compelling picture of how powerful energy efficiency can be, which eases the leap over the related hurdle of financing.\nIn a previous post, I covered on-bill financing, a program available from a number of utilities whereby energy-efficiency retrofit projects are financed at very low or zero interest. But what about stores that aren\u2019t served by one of those utilities? Is traditional financing a deal breaker? The answer is: It doesn\u2019t have to be.\nFinancing for positive cash flow is more cost effective than paying for wasted energy\nThe key is structuring a loan so that the monthly payment is less than the money saved on the utility bill. Another way of looking at this is by scrutinizing your store\u2019s budget. Chances are your store has already budgeted for a retrofit project, but it\u2019s not obvious because the funds are \u201chidden\u201d in the line item for energy expenses.\nThe difference in monthly loan repayment and pre-project utility expenses gives you money you didn\u2019t have before. It can be used to pay down the loan more quickly or be applied directly to profits.\nEven in a case where financing results in a monthly payment that\u2019s equal to money saved in reduced energy consumption, it still makes sense. Once the loan is paid off, the savings from reduced energy consumption goes directly to your store\u2019s bottom line. Without doing the project, you will continue to pay what you\u2019ve always paid for energy \u2013 or more if rates rise.\nEnergy efficiency brings other benefits\nOffsetting the cost of financing a project through energy savings is only part of the story. Long before you\u2019ve paid for the project, you\u2019ll reap the benefits of an improved store environment that comes with more comfortable aisle temperatures for shoppers, lighting that enhances effective merchandising, and lower or deferred maintenance costs due to new equipment.",

        "raw_content": "Introducing Coline Creuzot\nTexas is a state known for producing everything in an abundant and audacious \u201cTexas-sized\u201d style, and Coline Creuzot, the Houston native, is no exception. Coline is a forthcoming singer and songwriter who has collaborated with the music industries heavyweights by creating her own musical pathway, and is leaving a heavy imprint within the soil of the music scene. Coline\u2019s music, which is organically written by herself, is a blend of R&B, Soul, and today\u2019s Pop, and her inspiration derives from artists such as Sam Cooke, Donny Hathaway, Aaliyah, Brandy, Tamia, and Beyonce.\nThe harmony between her music and inspirations consummates every lyric and melody that is born out of her personal experiences and life learned lessons. Coline has toured with Solange Knowles as her as a back-up singer and dancer doing spot dates, and recently appeared in Solange Knowles video for \u201cI Decided\u201d. Her first mix-tape, \u201cHead Turner,\u201d is hosted and by Paul Wall, and the second mix-tape, Diamond in the Rough,\u201d includes features from Slim Thug, Paul Wall, DJ Khaled, DJ Drama, Solange Knowles, Chamillionaire, in addition to other various artists. She also recently signed a publishing deal with Sony ATV!\nIn addition to touring and recording, Coline has opened shows for hit makers including T-Pain, Drake, Paul Wall, Sammie, J.Holiday, David Banner, Bun B, T.I, and Carl Thomas. Andna opening spot for Keyshia Cole in NYC is probably her biggest feat on the road. She has been recently featured in the print and online publications of Houston Press, Concreteloop.com, ClutchMagazine.com, Singersroom.com, HoneyMag.com, in addition to a list of radio shows including SiriusXM Shade 45 with Angela Yee.\nAll of this may seem like a lot to digest, but it\u2019s easy to understand once you\u2019ve laid your eyes on the new video for \u201cAcapella Now\u201d. The song serves as a classy and definitive send off to a former flame, although it\u2019s not afraid to admit that sometimes breaking up can be hard. We see various scenes of Coline in past situations that all contribute to her heartache, whether it be controlling behavior or ignorance. Her ex can see his ways were wrong and that he screwed up a good thing, but it\u2019s too late because Coline has moved on, and in her own words is \u201caccapella now\u201d. She\u2019s too strong of a woman to let herself be a victim, and it\u2019s a positive message for women everywhere!",

        "title": "Time Travel: the Japanese attack at Fort Stevens, Oregon | HistoryNet",
        "raw_content": "Fort Stevens endured a 1942 Japanese attack and was largely undamaged. Today, visitors can tour the site and its interior.\nTime Travel: the Japanese attack at Fort Stevens, Oregon\nSoldiers from Fort Stevens, Oregon, inspect a five-foot crater created by a shell fired from a Japanese submarine. (Photo courtesy of Fort Stevens State Park)\nTHE WHISTLE OF INCOMING SHELLS startled gunners of the 249th Coast Artillery Corps Regiment from their bunks at Fort Stevens, Oregon, in the closing minutes of Sunday, June 21, 1942. A Japanese submarine, the I-25, had surfaced about six miles out to sea and was firing on the fort that had guarded the mouth of the Columbia River since the Civil War.\nOn a chilly February night 75 years later, I pad up a grassy slope in what is now Fort Stevens State Park, retracing the steps of the soldiers who manned Battery Russell, the sole ocean-facing gun fortification located a lonely two miles southwest of the fort\u2019s other batteries. The constellation of Orion and his night-sky companions illuminate the sharp edges of the concrete fortress before me while a chorus of tree frogs croaks to the rhythmic accompaniment of the Pacific, just half a mile away at the northwestern tip of Oregon.\nOn the night Fort Stevens became the first mainland U.S. military base to be attacked by a foreign power since the War of 1812, the half-dressed soldiers of the 249th\u2019s F Battery streamed out of \u201cSquirrelville,\u201d a temporary tent city in the nearby swamp erected in February 1942 and named for its constant turnover of soldiers. The men filed up the thick steps of the battery honoring slain Civil War major general David A. Russell, took up battle stations, and awaited orders to load and fire the last pair of M 1900 10-inch breech-loading disappearing guns then in action in the United States.\nToday those gun pits are empty, but plenty of corroded clues still point to the complexity of firing the guns\u2019 600-lb. shells. After a cozy night camping in Squirrelville\u2019s modern descendent\u2014the park\u2019s village of rental yurts\u2014I roam Russell\u2019s rust-tinged corridors by the light of day. Amid a maze of sun-bleached graffiti, I spy the shaft where the men had hoisted shells and silk powder bags from ground level, and notice the narrow speaking tubes used to relay coordinates to the 35-man crews arming and aiming each of the school bus-length barrels.\nThe historic significance of this sandy stretch of the Oregon coast began long before the misfortunes of World War II lapped ashore. The United States acquired the land that is now Fort Stevens from the Clatsop Indians by treaty in 1851, 46 years after Lewis and Clark\u2019s Corps of Discovery staked its winter camp just a few miles south of here. In 1863 the army broke ground on a fort, named for the first governor of Washington Territory, Isaac I. Stevens, to deny unwelcome ships passage up the great Columbia River dividing Oregon and Washington. To deter would-be infiltrators, a half-dozen gun batteries were erected, including Russell in 1904. Early in the twentieth century, the Harbor Defenses of the Columbia, which comprised Fort Stevens and two sister bases across the river in Washington, added another layer of defense with a system of underwater mines; battery crews trained to target fast-moving enemy ships that might be sent to snag the mines from their moorings. By the time the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, the 249th had won multiple awards for marksmanship.\nA faux shell amid overgrown brush now marks the much-diminished site of the crater. (Photo by Jessica Wambach Brown)\nBut the I-25 was not interested in making a run up the Columbia. After supporting the Japanese occupation of two of the Aleutian Islands in early June 1942, the sub was sent down the Pacific Coast to watch for Alaska-bound American ships and target coastal direction-finder stations that could use radio signals to triangulate the location of Japanese vessels. One such station was located about 1,500 yards north of Battery Russell.\nThe I-25\u2019s first five-and-a-half-inch shell landed in a swamp about four miles south of Russell, blasting a five-foot crater a few marshy steps away from the park\u2019s southern boundary. As the submarine\u2019s line of fire crept steadily northward, awestruck onlookers in the nearby towns of Astoria and Seaside caught glimpses of sailors moving about the gun deck each time the guns flashed.\nThe men looking out from Battery Russell\u2019s command station that night could see the muzzle flashes as well. As I stand in the same dank room three-quarters of a century later, my view of the ocean is obscured by dense patches of scrub pine and shrubbery planted shortly before the war to stabilize the ever-changing sandscape. Although the battery is silent now, it is not hard to imagine F Battery\u2019s trepidation as the I-25\u2019s shells drew close enough for shrapnel to pierce the red alder trees of Squirrelville. Peering down a chute in the command station\u2019s dusty floor, I picture men huddled around maps in the plotting room below, eagerly waiting for Harbor Defenses\u2019 commander to order the fort\u2019s searchlights to illuminate the target and help pinpoint its range.\nBUT THE ORDER NEVER CAME. At the Harbor Defense Command Post two miles north, the duty officer was juggling conflicting reports as to whether the I-25 was in range of any of the seven batteries spread between Fort Stevens and the two Washington forts. Despite fervent pleas from the battery crews, Colonel Carl Doney, a 1916 West Point graduate who had been transferred from San Francisco just four weeks prior, opted not to risk further exposure of his batteries\u2019 locations. The searchlights remained off and the guns unloaded.\nDavid Lindstrom, a local historian and longtime volunteer for Friends of Old Fort Stevens, has corresponded with veterans on both sides of the I-25 attack. As we survey sun-glazed whitecaps from Fort Stevens\u2019s south jetty, he details evidence that indicates the sub was indeed within range of Fort Stevens\u2019s guns and describes the soldiers\u2019 outrage at Doney\u2019s decision. \u201cThere was great agitation to return fire. They were so close to insubordination,\u201d he says. \u201cThey could see the target. They knew they could hit it.\u201d\nInterior view of Battery Russell. (Photo by Jessica Wambach Brown)\nThe attack lasted less than 20 minutes and left both Battery Russell and the direction-finder station unscathed. Of the at least nine shells the I-25\u2019s crew fired, only one claimed a casualty\u2014the backstop of Squirrelville\u2019s treasured baseball diamond. The submarine quietly motored away the next morning, but returned to the Oregon coast three months later to launch near the town of Brookings a floatplane that conducted the first\u2014largely harmless\u2014bombing of the continental United States by an enemy aircraft. The state\u2019s wartime troubles culminated in tragedy in May 1945, when a woman and five children on a picnic near Bly stumbled upon one of the 9,000 transpacific fire balloons launched from Japan and became the only combat casualties in the lower 48 states during World War II.\nBattery Russell\u2019s 10-inch guns fired their last practice shots in December 1944 and the entire fort was decommissioned three years later. Fort Stevens became a state park in 1955 and today attracts more than 1.2 million annual visitors who are encouraged to explore the concrete mysteries of Russell and its base end stations, along with the many moss-covered treasures in a designated historic area near the old Harbor Defense Command Post. There, amid remnants of the mine program and more permanent wartime dwellings that put Squirrelville\u2019s tents to shame, Friends of Old Fort Stevens sponsors reenactments and staffs a small museum that chronicles the fort\u2019s 84-year tenure as guardian of the Columbia\u2014including the fateful night that put this tiny coastal stretch of Oregon in the history books. \u272f\nThis column was originally published in the October 2017 issue of World War II magazine.

        "raw_content": "Landscapes and Blue Skies by Socially-Conscious Louisiana-based Artists\nCiel Fragmente - Degrees of Separation by George Marks from \"In A World\" exhibit at Gallery Jatad\nPhoto by David Humphreys\nSusie Tommaney | September 2, 2015 | 7:00am\nFollowing Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the town of Arnaudville, Louisiana saw the need to preserve the cultural assets of the region, including the French language, music and visual arts. The NUNU Arts and Culture Collective \u2013 a multipurpose art and culture space that plays host to social and educational events \u2013 was born; and works by its co-founder and director are on display now in Gallery Jatad\u2019s \u201cIn A World\u201d exhibit.\nThe three mixed media pieces presented by George Marks all contain blue skies and billowy white clouds, but the similarities end there. With a subtle reference to the master bakers of France, his Ciel Fragmente \u2013 Degrees of Separation incorporates four vintage commercial bread pans. The 16 smaller segments of sky are placed in the pans at different angles, alluding to the driver\u2019s seat vista in the rear-view mirror. The piece was inspired by photographs taken as part of an interdisciplinary international exchange, \u201cDegrees of Separation,\u201d between painters, poets and writers from Louisiana and the Bretagne region of France.\nAt more than five feet in length, the horizontally arranged wooden boards in Panoramic Sky 1-5 are part of a larger body of work, which can be mixed and matched and arranged in groupings of few or many. Each individual piece is unique in its own way, with variations on sky and darkened wood; the result is light and airy, in spite of the scale of the piece and the weight of the media. Marks\u2019s third piece, Wholly, not holy, offers an exaggerated perspective of converging electrical lines against the wide, open skies.\nSt. Francisville, Louisiana, Fall (detail) by Lisa di Stefano from \"In A World\" exhibit at Gallery Jatad\nThe dual exhibit also features seven paintings by Louisiana-based Lisa di Stefano, who is both artist in residence and membership director at NUNU, and who also participated in the \u201cDegrees of Separation\u201d exchange. Concerned about the vanishing wetlands in the region \u2013 one report estimates that by the year 2040 Louisiana will have lost more than one million acres of coastal wetlands \u2013 di Stefano\u2019s paintings document the beauty of these disappearing landscapes.\nHer diptychs set inside an unpainted frame include the sublime green gestures of trees and rolling grasses in St. Francisville, Louisiana; the ghost-filled trees framing the open sky of Atchafalaya Swamp, Summer; and the peachy sky of Arnaudville, Louisiana, LA31. The dark, expansive tree line casts orange shadows in Arnaudville, Louisiana, Summer; while the other framed triptych, Arnaudville, Louisiana, Fall, features fewer trees. Somewhat different in subject matter, the unframed trilogy of St. Francisville, Louisiana, Fall, incorporating a touch of tan, suggests structures or buildings. The single paneled Cluster of Trees, Arnaudville, Louisiana introduces cobalt to the foliage with the beckoning of an open door.\nThe gallery, which features contemporary art as well as traditional African art, has on display many figures, masks, miniatures and utilitarian pieces that originate from the Ivory Coast, the Republic of Congo, Nigeria, Cameroon, Guinea, Liberia and the Republic of Mali.\n\u201cIn A World\u201d continues through September 26, at Gallery Jatad, 1517 Blodgett, open Thursdays to Saturdays, noon to 6 p.m., 832-657-4328 or galleryjatad.com.",

A subtype of macrophages named inflammatory macrophages is particularly bad, as they specialize in producing large amounts of inflammatory mediators,\u201d says lead researcher Dr. Xiaoyu Hu, a research scientist at HSS.\n\u201cDespite all the research effort, it is still not clear exactly what causes joint inflammation \u2014 a very complex process influenced by a number of genetic and environmental factors. Macrophages clearly contribute to joint inflammation and targeting inflammatory macrophages may represent a promising therapeutic approach to dampen joint inflammation,\u201d says Hu.\nThe study was published online by Nature Immunology.\nRead the full story at time.com",

        "raw_content": "Previously I\u2019ve blogged that no business should want an LMS. One of the problems I\u2019ve highlighted is the lack of actionable intelligence that you get from a Learning Management System \u2013 it just doesn\u2019t solve any real-world problems.\nAnd so, if our mission is to actually get some actionable intelligence that can influence the way your business operates, we\u2019ve got to change our methodology and move towards an ecosystem approach.\nNot to report on how many people have completed a training activity, but to understand what activities actually make a difference in the performance of our companies.\nWhich brings me, of course, to a Captain\u2019s Log\u2026\nThe Case for Keeping a Log\nLogs are a fascinating way to document history, and I\u2019d first like to share with you a personal example of why this is so\u2026\nDuring World War II my wife\u2019s Grandfather, Desmond Brown, kept a meticulous log that we still have in the family today. Whilst he was training to become a navigator with the Royal Air Force, Desmond noted down every flight he took, his role on the flight and the pilot in command.\nBy coincidence my own Grandfather, Harry Betts, also served with the Royal Air Force in WWII, but he was a pilot and was a few years older than Desmond. In fact, by the time Desmond joined up, Harry had flown his thirty missions over enemy territory and had been sent to train new recruits in Canada.\nWhich, as it turned out, was where Desmond had been sent as a new recruit to earn his wings. The potential coincidence dawned on us one Christmas day whilst talking about family history.\nMy wife\u2019s father still kept his father\u2019s WWII things and so he went upstairs to find his old logbook.\nOn the 18th July, 1943, Harry met Desmond. 72 years later and a few thousand miles away, their grandchildren would meet and marry. A wonderful insight into a remarkable coincidence.\nGaining Insight from Learning Data Logs\nI haven\u2019t counted how many flights are logged in Desmond\u2019s book. That would take a while, as is the way with logs.\nBut just because I can\u2019t give you the obvious facts and figures in quick order, doesn\u2019t mean the log entries themselves aren\u2019t insightful.\nLogs like this are useful for all of their entries, beyond a tally of how much progress has been made or the final entry that marks training as \u2018complete\u2019.\nIn many regards a tally would be a better way of storing this data; a log is tedious for summary figures.\nBut summary figures tend to be what most people ask for when they first get their hands on a Learning Record Store (LRS).\nThe Need to Look Beyond Reporting\nOne of the most common requests we get with regards to adopting the xAPI and Learning Locker is reporting: What are the reporting functions? Are the reporting functions better than my LMS? Can I create customised reports?\nFirst of all: yes to all of the above, obviously.\nBut just because you can use an LRS to do reporting, should you? I think perhaps not.\nYou see logs make for lousy ways of reporting quickly on summary pieces of data. Logs aren\u2019t like a tally that gets overwritten. Each entry is immutable and they stack on top of each other, sequentially.\nIf you want to find one log entry in particular, you\u2019ve got to go back through every log you\u2019ve ever stored until you find it.\nAnd if you want to count how many times certain things occur in the logs you\u2019ve got to count through each stored record, even if the record in question isn\u2019t a match for your count, before you get to your answer.\nThis can be slow and tedious at the best of times, especially when your log is a big one (our biggest logs record hundreds of millions of individual entries!).\nWhilst we create indexes and caches and all manner of shortcuts to make this process easier, it\u2019s never going to be as fast as simply storing a tally for certain outcomes and overwriting it every time it gets updated.\nThis, as far as xAPI is concerned, is a problem; a mismatch of expectations versus reality.\nYou see, when it comes down to it, the Learning Record Store is a log: A time-sequenced record of what happened.\nThis is why an LRS that follows the xAPI specification is immutable (xAPI statements cannot be deleted) \u2013 a log is a record of what occurred and cannot be changed retrospectively.\nThis is a bit of a problem for reporting.\nIf someone is 67% of the way through a learning activity, what I want to know is that the current progression total is \u201c67%\u201d, not how it came to be 67%. And when the learner has progressed a bit further and I run the report again, I want it to say \u201c75%\u201d.\nI don\u2019t want some long-winded report that says that it used to be 67% but now it\u2019s 75%. That\u2019s a bit pointless.\nAnd yet that\u2019s exactly what a lot\u2019s of people trying out the xAPI for the first time want to know: They want to know the current state of something, given very recent changes.\nBut why would you go to the time and expense of logging all sorts of activity using the xAPI if you were only really interested in knowing one or two data points? Why not just track those two points and be done with it?\nUsing a log for only its most recent entry is wasting 99.9% of the stored data.\nIn our xAPI world, a key difference between the LMS and the LRS is in the nature of knowing how things are, versus how they came to be. The LMS stores things as they are; the LRS tells you how things got to be in that position.\nTo get the most out of the xAPI world you need to be interested in deriving insights from logs.\nDeriving Insight from Logs\nIf you use an LRS for reporting alone, you are missing the point.\nSure, there\u2019s a chance your LRS will do this better than your existing system, but that\u2019s more a reflection on the poorness of existing reporting systems than a benefit of xAPI.\nReporting is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the real potential of xAPI and the Learning Record Store.\nA Learning Record Store does have a genuine advantage over incumbent LMS software where the data comes from multiple sources.\nUsed in this way, an LRS can create aggregated reports which an LMS might not be capable of doing. (But frankly it\u2019s still a poor use of a log and other systems can probably do it better.)\nReporting like this is the most obvious use case of aggregating data. This is what I would call the \u2018above the water line\u2019 stuff. It\u2019s visible and immediately obvious \u2013 but it\u2019s not the bulk of the benefit you can get from a Learning Record Store.\nYou might find it harder to get out a \u2018simple\u2019 report from a log than you would a relational database and, as such, if you don\u2019t look below the water line at the bulk of the iceberg you might find yourself somewhat disappointed with an LRS.\nAny action you take as a result of reporting data is going to be reactive; the report will tell you when a deadline has been missed or a KPI fallen short. And, sure, you can react to that. But you can\u2019t prevent it from happening \u2013 it\u2019s already happened.\nGoing below the surface of the water line we get deeper levels of insight and into the possibility of becoming more proactive with your actions based on data.\nIronically, sometimes in order to be more proactive in the future you must first look into the past. This is why our second layer down in the Iceberg is called Pattern Recognition.\nA log shows you all the data points that have been collected along a journey, not just the most recent result. That gives you a unique ability to spot patterns in historical data.\nThis could be based on times of the day / week / month / year, or based on the previous logs of people who have been down a path before.\nA Learning Record Store gives you this advantage right away. You can use the data to see patterns that have occurred again and again.\nOf course, by understanding what others have done previously, and with a bit of allowance for change, you can have a fair go at predicting where a result will end up.\nYou can extrapolate past patterns into future trends.\nAnd so we call the next level down on the iceberg \u2018Trends & Predictions\u2019 \u2013 the ability to accurately predict the future.\nThere are a number of schools of thought in terms of how accurate predictions can be obtained from patterns and trends, but the two most EdTech software falls into are deterministic and probabilistic:\nDeterminists suggest that given X, Y will occur. If you fail this practice test 3 times, you will fail the final examination (for example)\nProbabilists look to develop a likelihood that a learner conforms to one persona or another to inform their predictions; that each activity a user performs makes them more or less likely to conform to a particular set of characteristics (for example, the characteristics that a successful learner generally displays).\nThese outcomes are less certain but probably more flexible and appropriate beyond obvious circumstances.\nInitially you may chose to deploy predictions behind the scenes, for your own internal purposes or potentially to make administrations aware of learners on whom they might like to focus some attention.\nBut once you\u2019ve developed a bit more confidence in your trends and predictions, your insight is now deep enough to intervene more automatically.\nAt your most proactive, you can set up \u2018Interventions\u2019 to try and alter a course before the outcome is realised.\nThat is to say, if the patterns you see in a log indicate a future trend that you don\u2019t like the look of, you can take action to prevent that action from occurring in the first place.\nThis is the aim of predictive analytics projects like our work with Jisc, who are seeking to help teachers and tutors make interventions in their classrooms before the reporting tools show that someone is falling behind.\nOur Log\u2019s Legacy: A New Generation\nLiving through WW2 as a member of the RAF\u2019s Bomber Command was no easy feat. For every 100 airmen that flew, just 27 survived a tour of operations unscathed.\n74 years after his Great Grandparents shared an RAF training exercise as part of their work, my first son was born.\nIt is in their honour (and a testament to the keeping of logs) that I am very proud to introduce Harry Desmond Betts to the world..!\nTo find out how you can look at your training data differently and start utilising the power of logs, reach out to us to get a demo of Learning Locker and a 14 day free trial.",

But a trend that is beginning to take hold for Android, iPhone and other mobile developers is the use of HTML5 to create applications that resemble native apps--and it may eventually put many app stores out of business.\nDevelopers in the past have had to create iterations of their mobile applications for each device they are targeting--meaning they had to create a version of their app for the iPhone, Android, Blackberry, and then potentially another one for generic devices running a vanilla browser.\nBy using HTML5, an application can quickly access apps through the web, on any device, using any browser. The ability to code once and deploy for all is a huge incentive for developers to jump on the HTML5 bandwagon.

The Hoosiers finished 13th at the NCAA Championships on Friday and Saturday. IDS file photo Buy Photos\nOne year after placing eighth at the event, IU\u2019s rowing team placed fourth out of 21 teams at the Clemson Invitational on April 14.\nThe Hoosiers were able to fight through a tough schedule, and they fell three points short of a top-three podium finish in South Carolina.\nOne week after falling hard to Michigan and Michigan State, the team found its rhythm and saw their times improve throughout the weekend.\n\u201cI thought this was a great performance by our whole team,\" IU Coach Steve Peterson said. \u201cAll of our crews stepped up this weekend. We have not been performing as consistently as we know we can, so the results this weekend are more indicative of what our athletes are capable of.\u201d\nThe field of 21 consisted of teams from eight different conferences. Ohio State, Wisconsin and Minnesota joined the Hoosiers from the Big Ten. The Buckeyes and Badgers placed first and third, respectively, while the Golden Gophers finished tenth.\nOutside of the Big Ten, there were five other ranked teams at the event, such as USC, Virginia and Washington State. Since the event started in 2013, multiple Clemson Invite crews have gone on to become NCAA Championship participants later in the year.\nPeterson said the Hoosiers\u2019 best boat of the weekend was the first varsity four, a boat that lost to ninth-ranked Virginia by two seconds Saturday morning. The 1V4 came back and made a statement by placing second in the grand final; this time was two seconds ahead of the Cavaliers.\n\u201cI think it was a great race for us,\u201d junior Connie Brahm said. \u201cAfter the morning race we knew what had to happen. We just had a really positive outlook going into the final, and it meant the world that we were able to do so well.\u201d\nThe 1V8 had an up-and-down weekend in terms of time, ultimately placing fifth in its nail biting final that saw all seven teams cross the finish line in an 11-second stretch. There were multiple ranked teams in the water each team they rowed.\nThe 2V4 stayed consistent throughout the weekend before placing fourth in their final. The only crews that finished above them this weekend were Duke, Ohio State and Virginia.\nThe 2V8, a boat that struggled last weekend, showed promise during the first two sessions, placing second behind Wisconsin on Friday and second behind Virginia on Saturday. When it came to the grand final, they placed fifth despite having their fastest time of the weekend.\n\u201cI think it was a major confidence boost for us,\u201d sophomore Lauren Woodgate said. \u201cWe were pretty happy with the outcome. There were a lot of challenging teams and it was great to race against them.\u201d\nThe team has a rare week off before it wraps up the season with the lone home event of the year, the Dale England Cup. Joining the Hoosiers at Lake Lemon on April 28 will be Duke, Notre Dame and Penn.\nWhile their calendar only consists of practice for the next week and a half, the Hoosiers know that now is not the time to slack as this is their last chance to make any final touches before the postseason.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not much of a break for us because we still have a lot of work to do,\u201d Woodgate said. \u201cWe\u2019re really going to buckle down and just iron out any things we need to fix. We\u2019re really excited to host the Dale England Cup.\u201d",

And it manages to do all this in a way that is both entertaining and engaging.\u201d \u2014The New York Times\nAs we approach a great turning point in history when technology is poised to redefine what it means to be human, The Fourth Age offers fascinating insight into AI, robotics, and their extraordinary implications for our species.\nIn The Fourth Age, Byron Reese makes the case that technology has reshaped humanity just three times in history:\n- 100,000 years ago, we harnessed fire, which led to language.\n- 10,000 years ago, we developed agriculture, which led to cities and warfare.\n- 5,000 years ago, we invented the wheel and writing, which lead to the nation state.\nWe are now on the doorstep of a fourth change brought about by two technologies: AI and robotics. The Fourth Age provides extraordinary background information on how we got to this point, and how\u2014rather than what\u2014we should think about the topics we\u2019ll soon all be facing: machine consciousness, automation, employment, creative computers, radical life extension, artificial life, AI ethics, the future of warfare, superintelligence, and the implications of extreme prosperity.\nBy asking questions like \u201cAre you a machine?\u201d and \u201cCould a computer feel anything?\u201d, Reese leads you through a discussion along the cutting edge in robotics and AI, and, provides a framework by which we can all understand, discuss, and act on the issues of the Fourth Age, and how they\u2019ll transform humanity.\nByron Reese is the CEO and publisher of the technology research company Gigaom, and the founder of several high-tech companies. He has spent the better part of his life exploring the interplay of technology with human history. Reese has obtained or has pending patents in disciplines as varied as crowdsourcing, content creation, and psychographics. The websites he has launched, which cover the intersection of technology, business, science, and history, have together received over a billion visitors. He is the author of the acclaimed book, Infinite Progress: How Technology and the Internet Will End Ignorance, Disease, Hunger, Poverty, and War. He lives in Austin, Texas.\nPraise For The Fourth Age: Smart Robots, Conscious Computers, and the Future of Humanity\u2026\n\u201cIn The Fourth Age, Byron Reese offers the reader something much more valuable than what to think about Artificial Intelligence and robotics\u2014he focuses on HOW to think about these technologies, and the ways in which they will change the world forever. If you only read just one book about the AI revolution, make it this one.\u201d\n\u2014 John Mackey, co-founder and CEO, Whole Foods Market\n\"Reese frames the deepest questions of our time in clear language that invites readers to make their own choices. Using 100,000 years of human history as his guide, he explores the issues around artificial general intelligence, robots, consciousness, automation, the end of work, abundance, and immortality. As he does so, Reese reveals himself to be an optimist and urges us to use technology to build a better world.\"\n\u2014 Bob Metcalfe, UT Austin Professor of Innovation, Ethernet inventor, 3Com founder\n\"Timely, highly informative, and certainly optimistic.\"",

A secret long concealed by her parents, Sera is Lakshmi reborn, the human avatar of an immortal Indian goddess rumored to control all the planes of existence. Marked by the sigils of both heaven and hell, Sera\u2019s avatar is meant to bring balance to the mortal world, but all she creates is chaos. A chaos that Azrath, the Asura Lord of Death, hopes to use to unleash hell on earth.\nTorn between reconciling her past and present, Sera must figure out how to stop Azrath before the Mortal Realm is destroyed. But trust doesn\u2019t come easy in a world fissured by lies and betrayal. Her best friend Kyle is hiding his own dark secrets, and her mysterious new neighbor, Devendra, seems to know a lot more than he\u2019s telling. Struggling between her opposing halves and her attraction to the boys tied to each of them, Sera must become the goddess she was meant to be, or risk failing, which means sacrificing the world she was born to protect.\nAmalie Howard, a Seventeen Magazine Summer Club author, grew up on a small Caribbean island where she spent most of her childhood with her nose buried in a book or being a tomboy running around barefoot, shimmying up mango trees, and dreaming of adventure. Twenty-two countries, surfing with sharks, and several tattoos later, she has traded bungee jumping in China for writing the adventures she imagines instead. She isn\u2019t sure which one takes more guts.

Over the last week I have looked through entries from your blog and find myself enthusiastically agreeing with your thoughts. I am always so thankful to come across a like-minded advocate of play! At first I was unsure if I should contact you, but I decided to go with my instinct. It has seldom steered me wrong. And although our paths are different, we have many experiences in common.\nIn 1998, I finished my undergraduate studies at a small, liberal arts, \u201cGreat Books\u201d school in Annapolis, MD called St. John\u2019s College. Although completely unqualified, or so I imagined, I was offered a position teaching middle school science just outside of Baltimore. In 2000 my first daughter Emily was born and I was able to stay home as a full time mother. We struggled financially, but somehow made it work! For most women now, it is not so much an option to be a stay at home mother, as it is a luxury. The privilege of motherhood . . .\nI was suddenly single in 2007 and needed full time work as quickly as possible. So I reluctantly began subbing and soon accepted a position teaching high school math. A little older, single, and with three young children (my youngest daughter, Miriam was one at the time,) I re-entered the work force. A La Leche League Leader and advocate of a more natural approach, I had at one time been considering homeschooling my own children and had recently discovered Montessori and Reggio-Emilia. Those first years back to work were overwhelming and I questioned whether I even really liked teaching! But I needed work, and the hours matched my own children\u2019s schedules. I moved from high school to middle school math and then six years ago was offered a position teaching kindergarten. Jumping down 8 grades was a bit of a shock at first! But as I discovered what it meant to be in a kindergarten classroom, I was increasingly surprised and concerned.\nI had imagined young children coming together for a happy gathering, but found the daily kindergarten class menu contained mostly multi-vitamins and water. It was clear that my job was to make sure they had the required minimum dose of academic rigor. There seemed to be no time for play. How much more difficult it must be for the veteran teachers who remembered when there used to be a daily kindergarten feast . . .\nMy first year was not pretty and I try not to think about it too often! There were a lot of worksheets involved. . . but I was determined to grow as a teacher. I read a lot and asked the \u201cmaster teachers\u201d a lot of questions. I was restless and dissatisfied with the endless paper and pencil tasks. There had to be a better way. But the question was: \u201chow?\u201d Truthfully, I didn\u2019t have a lot of room to make changes. I am currently working in a \u201cgood\u201d public school district with a (mostly) supportive administration. I teach a blended kindergarten. So next year I will start the day with 21 students , but at 11:30 ten of them will leave for the day. Five of my incoming kindergartners have IEPs. Our district has mandated certain benchmarks, curriculum, and assessments that are non-negotiable. Some of the curriculum (especially math) is highly scripted. There are no field trips.\nMy kindergartners (even those that are 1/2 day students,) are required to master 80% of 100 sight words, to be reading at a minimum of a DRA Level 2, and to successfully complete Eureka Math (you might know it- also known as Engage NY). We are also a \u201cSTEAM\u201d school and I am asked to incorporate this as much as possible. Here are the current required assessments: district determined measures twice a year (DDMs), Eureka Math Module Assessments (6 mid module, and 6 end of module), Wilson Fundations Unit Assessments (x6), AIMSWEB online assessments (letter naming fluency x3, nonsense word fluency x2, phonemic segmentation x2), and lengthy DRA (developmental reading assessments), We also have several report card assessments. Most of these tests can only be administered one-to-one. I am also required to use the data from these assessments to create daily RTI Tier 2 groups. Our union reps have reassured us that the assessment data will not be \u201cofficially\u201d used in our teacher evaluations, at least for this upcoming year. I have a great love for my little students, and a strong motivation to become the best teacher I can, but I am not a superstar teacher. I cannot work 12 hour days creating meaningful, developmentally appropriate standards-based lessons. So I have thought (almost obsessively sometimes) about a better way. A way to balance what I am required to do with what I know is best for my students. For me, the key to this balance is what I\u2019m calling Play Based Centers.\nSo here is the interesting (or maybe miraculous) thing- with few exceptions my students have exceeded my district\u2019s mandated standards. And, here is the important part- it is in fact because I have implemented free-choice, play based, open ended centers. Every day. For at least 45 minutes, first thing in the morning. And this is why, even though I am definitely not a writer, I am writing this book. I think I have a good enough idea that other teachers might want to use it. I believe my idea allows teachers a freedom to truly differentiate and really focus on each individual\u2019s needs.\nMy idea is not perfect, only a candle in a dark room where there should be a chandelier. But it is a start. I have had surprising success and I\u2019m hoping that it could be a small guide toward a more enlightened time.\nI\u2019ve been writing (slowly) for about a year now. My goal this summer is to begin submitting book proposals to six different publishers. I know very little about the process, only what I\u2019ve read online. I have heard it can take awhile even to get rejected! But I will persevere, it is a kind of mission for me at this point.\nIn closing, thank you for your insights and your years of advocacy! I look forward to your book coming out in August! As individual teachers, our paths are different, but we are all travelling through the same forest. Thorny, overgrown standards choking the once sunlit, joyful path of early childhood classrooms. Dedicated teachers race through the forest at break-neck speed, pushing and pulling students along, knowing that even if \u201cno child is left behind,\u201d childhood will be. And with it joy, wonder and curiosity. A sad childhood sacrifice.\nBut I do believe that the pendulum is swinging. Change is occurring, though slowly. And while wiser and more powerful decision makers, researchers and advocates debate the issues, I wanted to do something now. In my own little classroom, I want to do the best I can for the children in my care.\nPeace and Blessings-\n-Heather Mistretta",

That\u2019s going to be a difficult balance for us to deal with,\u201d he told Good Morning Britain.\n\u201cWe as a government have been incredibly clear, as have the police, that if you go and fight or support these types of organisations, there are consequences for that.\u201d\n\u201cIf you come back here, you should expect to be investigated and you should potentially expect to be charged with terrorist offences or other offences.\"\nFamily of misdiagnosed cervical cancer patient call for NHS inquiry\nThe family of NHS nurse Julie O\u2019Connor are fighting for an inquiry into her death, after her cervical cancer was misdiagnosed and not spotted by doctors for years.\nJulie allegedly had her initial cervical smear test at Bristol\u2019s Southmead Hospital in September 2014, and the test results came back as negative. Even after six further tests, there were allegedly no signs of cancer.\nKevin O\u2019Connor, Julie\u2019s husband, told Good Morning Britain they believed the original pap smear test was \u2018misdiagnosed and mistreated\u2019, and this pushed them to get a second opinion.\n\u201cIt was unfortunate we had to go to a private consultant to get the cancer diagnosis. We have been campaigning for the last two years for an independent review,\u201d he said.\n\"We sent the smears and biopsies off for independent analysis. They came back as riddled with cancer cells. It was unreasonable that anybody would have missed it, but the hospital was still in denial.\"\nWhen they received her cancer diagnosis, Mr O'Connor said they were 'dumb struck'.\nJulie passed away on 4th February 2019 at the age of 49.\nThree days before her death, she sent a video message to the health officials she had believed failed her and her family.\nLying in her hospice bed, she said: \"I think it\u2019s disgusting that my life should have been suffering the way it has and will continue to suffer.\"\nJulie's daughter Sophie told GMB: \u201cMy mum, she created a really big legacy in our family. She was never negative about any of this...I promised that I would look after my dad and my brother for her.\u201d\nThe hospital has admitted to negligence and apologised to the O\u2019Connor family, but Mr O'Connor is campaigning for more to be done.\nHe told GMB he is concerned other cases of cervical cancer have been missed by the hospital.\n\u201cAre there more victims? They need to go back to 2014, are there other victims out there?\" he asked.\n\u201cThis is not about the blame\u2026 it\u2019s ensuring there are no more victims out there.\n\u201cI\u2019m not angry - that\u2019s not going to help us and not going to help Julie - just frustrated. We would just like an independent public inquiry.\u201d\nAccording to Mr O'Connor, the hospital is allegedly doing a partially independent review and is only covering the investigation itself.\nA spokesman for the North Bristol NHS Trust said: \u201cWe are committed to understanding the full circumstances of the case we provided so we can improve our services for the future, and we will be publicly open with the overall findings of the independent investigation we have commissioned.\"\nPolice cuts put the public \u2018at risk\u2019\nThe public and police are exposed to \u2018increased risk\u2019 as a survey revealed that more officers are working alone.\nAccording to a study by the Police Federation, the police are struggling to tackle the rise in knife crime with 75% of officers patrolling the streets alone.\nWith youth crime nearly doubling last year, this recent police study disclosed that the police are struggling to meet the increasing demands.\nProposal to cancel free TV licences for seniors sparks debate\nA consultation exploring a scheme providing seniors over 75 with a free TV licence has proposed to end this service by 2020.\nAccording to TV Licensing, nearly 3.9 million seniors have their \u00a3150.50 TV licences paid for by the government every year. Advocates for elderly people have slammed the decision, believing it improves the wellbeing of many lonely elderly people across the UK.\nHowever the BBC argues, by ending the scheme, they will be able to save costs and invest the money in better quality programmes.\nAccording to its inventor, a hormone kit that lets fathers breastfeed when their partner is struggling could be available in as little as five years. An 'empathy tool' for fathers, the kit involves taking several drugs through the partner's pregnancy so that the man grows milk ducts at the time of birth.\nSpencer Matthews, Quentin Wilson and the product's inventor Marie-Claire Springham debated the future of 'chestfeeding' this morning.\nShould secondary school start at 10am?\nToday, MPs are set to debate whether school start times should be pushed back to 10am after a petition - signed by both parents and pupils - received over 180,000 signatures.\nKatharine Birbalsingh and Biba Tanya debated whether secondary school should at a later time, so teenagers feel more alert and ready for learning when they attend classes.",

        "raw_content": "Japan mulls more aggressive approach to forex investment\nThe government is expected to face growing pressure in 2008 to more actively invest its nearly $1 trillion (\u00a5113 trillion) in foreign reserves to help restore the health of state finances.\nThe nation\u2019s foreign reserves \u2014 the world\u2019s second-largest after China \u2014 have been a source of debate over whether the government should more actively invest the funds for higher returns.\nRecent data from the Finance Ministry showed that the government scored a 4 percent return on the investment of its foreign reserves in fiscal 2006, the highest return in five years until the year to last March.\nBut some lawmakers and academics are not satisfied with such \u201cconservative\u201d returns coming mostly from interest income from U.S. Treasuries, and are calling for Japan to launch its own version of a sovereign wealth fund.\nPart of the investment returns from foreign reserves can be used as general-account budgetary spending and help improve Japan\u2019s fiscal conditions, currently the worst among major developed countries.\nOn Dec. 5, about 40 lawmakers of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party set up a group to lobby for the launch of Japan\u2019s sovereign wealth fund using part of the nation\u2019s foreign reserves or other assets, including pension funds. They plan to draw up a report for the government next spring.\nHidenao Nakagawa, one such lawmaker and former secretary general of the LDP, has also called on the government to seriously consider ways to actively invest its massive foreign reserves.\nSovereign wealth funds refer to state funds or entities that manage national savings, typically from ample cash from crude oil exports and accumulated foreign reserves, for investment purposes.\nTheir clout is rapidly growing in global financial markets, with the total value of such public funds around the world estimated to be around $1.9 trillion to $2.9 trillion (\u00a5215 trillion to \u00a5329 trillion).\nThe figures compare with the value of hedge funds, believed to be around $1.5 trillion to $1.6 trillion (\u00a5170 trillion to \u00a5181 trillion), according to the International Monetary Fund.\nCountries that operate sovereign wealth funds include China, Kuwait, Norway, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates.\nSome academics, including Takatoshi Ito, a member of the government\u2019s Council on Economic and Fiscal Policy and professor at the University of Tokyo\u2019s graduate school of economics, urge the government to invest its foreign reserves \u2014 at least their interest income \u2014 more actively.\nThe government remains cautious about such a proposal. Finance Minister Fukushiro Nukaga and senior ministry officials said the first priority should be given to ensure stability and liquidity in the nation\u2019s foreign reserves and that investment must be made within that framework.\nHideo Kumano, chief economist at Dai-ichi Life Research Institute, also questions a call from lawmakers and academics for an active investment of foreign reserves.\n\u201cWe saw three major plunges in global stock prices in 2007. We could have incurred a huge loss if we had invested foreign reserves by launching a sovereign wealth fund,\u201d Kumano said.\n\u201cWho will take the responsibility for the loss and how?\u201d he asked, adding the government should be cautious about investing foreign reserves due to risks of fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rate hikes.\nBut the economic situation appears to be encouraging these lawmakers and academics to ratchet up their demands as tax revenues are unlikely to post sharp growth in the coming few years due mainly to lower revenue from corporate taxes.\nThe Finance Ministry projects tax revenues will total \u00a553.554 trillion in fiscal 2008, up only \u00a587 billion, or 0.2 percent, from the initial estimate for the fiscal 2007 state budget.\nThe government wants to raise the consumption tax from the current 5 percent in fiscal 2009 to cover revenue shortfalls stemming from the scheduled increase in the ratio of the state burden in the basic pension system in the same fiscal year through March 31, 2010.\nSuch a hike, however, could curb consumer spending and trigger an economic downturn if it comes at a time when Japan\u2019s economic outlook remains uncertain. The economy is now facing such downside risks as financial market fluctuations and a slowdown in the U.S. economy amid the U.S. subprime mortgage woes.",

As tartar accumulates, it harbors bacteria that attack the soft tissue around the gums. This is the early stage of gum disease known as Gingivitis. Left untreated, Gingivitis becomes Periodontitis which ultimately destroys the tissue surrounding your teeth AND the bone that holds your teeth in place. Except for bad breath and gums that bleed, there are very few early warning signals. The disease advances silently, often without pain, and can eventually lead to tooth loss.\nIn addition to the loss of teeth, scientific research has discovered linkage between gum disease and stroke, heart disease, and diabetes - with an increased risk for pregnant women. When your gums become diseased, your entire immune system is weakened.\nScottdale Dentist | Periodontal (gum) disease. Jennifer Siwula Gill is a Scottdale Dentist.",

        "raw_content": "Job Offers Aren't Always Set in Stone\nBy Margaret Hansen\nFirst of all, congratulations! You've landed a new job. There is nothing wrong with being excited about it and letting it show. However, don't respond to the offer... just yet.\nThank the employer for the job offer and let them know that you will review it and reply within 24 to 48 business hours. Refrain from saying that you need to discuss it with your spouse or other parties; it's not their business and it lacks professionalism.\nTake a deep breath, grab your calculator and get to work. Go line by line through the offer and decide if it's the best it could be for what you have to offer the company. Remember, it's a two-way street where both parties should win.\nNegotiate Time Off\nAlthough an important piece, salary isn't the only item to negotiate in a job offer. For example, what kind of paid vacation is in the offer? You may want an extra week of summer vacation to hang out with your kids, take a special trip or do absolutely nothing.\nPerhaps there are certain days of the year that you want as paid vacation, i.e. the last two weeks of December, the first day of school or your birthday. Non-paid time off to attend a pre-planned event can also be negotiated fairly easily. Whatever it may be, if it's really important to you, ask for it.\nDetermine Employer Flexibility\nSmall businesses may actually have more flexibility in what they can offer than large corporations, who contend with layers of red tape and signatures for each decision made. How urgent an employer is to fill the position also plays a role in whether they'll negotiate.\nSome companies have a no negotiation policy; others will rescind their offer if you even attempt to negotiate. Understanding the company's needs and taking a delicate, thoughtful approach is best.\nCash out on Insurance\nIf you are able to get health and life insurances through your spouse, perhaps you could ask for a larger starting salary in lieu of insurance benefits. Some companies might consider this on an individual basis; automatically offering it to every employee opens them up for risk by encouraging lower insurance enrollments and thus higher premiums.\nBefore requesting compensation for benefits, ask their HR department for insurance details (premiums, employer contributions, waiting periods and coverage), so that you can be prepared with a well-researched dollar figure.\nOne other area of negotiation that the company may be open to is offering more perks. Professional development including conferences, networking events, books and courses could be requested. Instead of asking generically, provide them with a list of specific events for the upcoming year, as well as books, meetings and courses along with their cost.\nIt's How You Ask\nInstead of asking if there is a signing bonus, you could ask \"What's the signing bonus for this job?\" They can always tell you that there is no signing bonus. However, a company that can't move on salary may be willing to offer a one-time bonus to get you on board. Phrasing it this way shows that you have confidence in the company and it gives them a chance to get back to you - possibly with a figure - without being on the defense.\nTry to phrase your requests to include how they can benefit both you and the company. And remember, the more research that you do with prepared arguments behind each request, the more likely you will attain at least some of what you'd like.",

        "raw_content": "Nun Aikaterini: A Witness of the Holy Cloud of Mt. Tabor\nBy Nun Aikaterini\nFor every Despotic and Mother of God feast we have great joy no matter where we celebrate. But in the Holy Land everything is more real. There you feel like you are flying in the clouds. Sometimes you don't realize what is happening to yourself, whether you are in heaven or on earth. And this doesn't only happen to me, but to everyone who gathers for these feasts. Together with the touching of the Holy Light one of the greatest feasts is the Transfiguration of the Savior. On Mount Tabor on August 6/19 there appears the invisible wonder alongside this feast which cannot be seen in any church throughout the world unless God grants a personal revelation. There, on the night of August 18th towards August 19th during the Divine Liturgy in front of thousands of faithful and non-believers there descends on this sacred mountain a cloud. Non-believers - as I have heard from many of them - say that it is a meteorological phenomenon.\nThis cloud however is very different from other more familiar clouds which descend in the morning on our mountains. As the vigil begins one sees on the top of the mountain, towards Nazareth, something orange in the darkness of the night. This moves perpendicularly towards the church and stands there like an orange tongue until twelve o' clock or one o' clock at a great distance from Mount Tabor. When the Divine Liturgy begins, especially at the time of the Cherubic Hymn, the cloud comes towards the mountain and begins to take various shapes, and then oblong pieces cut from the cloud and take the shape of birds or angels and come upon the dome of the church. There it is, as well as the other buildings in the area, and the people go up and invoke the Holy Spirit. Words are poor to describe what you feel when these pieces, which are soft like cotton, come and you touch them with your hands, and you feel them on your face. You feel as if you want to climb onto this piece and go away and not care about anything.\nSimultaneously with this miracle an exquisite scent like incense spreads in the air but it is not incense, like resin but it is not resin. It is a combination of oriental conifers and incense. Naturally there are those who doubt by saying that it is a trick of the Greeks, or that is a meteorological phenomenon. But this is a general event of joy, something which does not occur on other mountains under any meteorological condition.\nOf course when descending from Mount Tabor, after the vigil, with the Greeks, Arabs, Bulgarians, Russians and Romanians chanting \"You were transfigured on the Mount Christ God\", you do not desire anything worldly but to live eternally like this.\nIn this instance, as with the Holy Light, these miracles, this consolation, God gives in the end for those who believe, because as the Bible says: \"I came to give to those who have, and to take from those who do not have\". So God takes from those who have little faith and start to question God, His presence and actions in this world. But for those who say: \"I Believe Lord, help my unbelief\", He reveals the greatest joy.\nIndeed, there on Mount Tabor you understand why the Apostle Peter told Christ that he didn't want to leave that place. Truly you do not want to leave Tabor. All worldly events pale before what is taking place on Mount Tabor.\nP.S. On Mount Tabor, of the three churches only one is Orthodox [Greek]. From the testimonies of eyewitnesses the bright cloud descends only on the Orthodox Church.\nRelated post: The Miraculous Holy Cloud of Mount Tabor\nLabels: Dormition Fast, Feasts of the Church, Miracles, Orthodoxy In Israel",

Did the police break the law?\nTaser use cited in man's death; prosecutor considering charges against West Milwaukee cops A mentally ill man was tased repeatedly by West Milwaukee police while showering and later died. Did the police break the law? Check out this story on jsonline.com: https://jsonl.in/2nYbRRR\nGina Barton, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Published 5:00 a.m. CT Feb. 14, 2018 | Updated 2:07 p.m. CT Feb. 14, 2018\nAdam Trammell (left) is shown with his nephew in this family photo. Trammell was 22 when he died after being Tased by West Milwaukee police in May.(Photo11: Family photo)\nAdam Trammell, who suffered from schizophrenia, was naked in the shower when West Milwaukee police broke down the door to his apartment and Tased him repeatedly, according to his family and attorneys.\nThe Taser use was a significant condition leading up to the May death of Trammell, 22, according to the medical examiner\u2019s report. The Milwaukee County district attorney is reviewing possible criminal charges in connection with the officers\u2019 actions, Police Chief Dennis L. Nasci confirmed.\nBody camera footage captured the last moments of Trammell\u2019s life, according to his parents and lawyers. They were allowed to watch the video in the district attorney\u2019s office in December, seven months after his death.\nIn it, Trammell was in the shower, drinking water from a plastic jug, when the police burst through the bathroom door, according to his father, Larry Trammell.\n\u201cThe only reason why people should get Tased is that they\u2019re doing something. He wasn\u2019t,\u201d Larry Trammell said in an interview. \u201cI just seen him drinking water. He\u2019s off balance, Tased, hit, then they Tase him again. They kept saying, \u2018Don\u2019t move.\u2019 Tase. Tase. Tase.\u201d\n\u201cIt was horrible. My son was screaming. He was tortured. Crucified.\u201d\nAttorney Robin Shellow, who along with attorney Mark Thomsen is representing the Trammell family, says Trammell was Tased 15 times.\nThe autopsy report lists more than two dozen cuts and bruises, including a black eye. Trammell also had a broken rib.\nLarry Trammell, Adam Trammell\u2019s father\nIn the section for other significant conditions, the report includes this: \"Struggle with physical, electrical and chemical restraint.\u201d\nThe medical examiner categorized the manner of death as \u201cundetermined,\u201d meaning there was not enough information to classify it as accident, homicide or natural.\nTwo of the West Milwaukee officers involved remain on full duty as the investigation continues, Nasci said. The third has relocated and taken a job with a different department.\nIn larger departments, such as Milwaukee, it is standard procedure to place officers on desk duty during such inquiries.\nNasci said he could not discuss Trammell\u2019s death due to the pending investigation. His department and the West Allis Police Department, which was called for backup, cited the same reason in denying the Journal Sentinel's public information requests for the video and police reports.\n\u201cWhen there is a death of an individual, I understand that people want answers,\u201d Nasci told the Journal Sentinel. \u201cBut until I know absolutely what the district attorney\u2019s office is going to do, I won\u2019t be releasing any information.\u201d\nUnresponsive in the ambulance\nAdam Trammell had been placed in the apartment building in the 5400 block of W. Greenfield Ave. by a caseworker from Project Access, a social service agency for people with mental illness, according to his parents.\nOn the morning of May 25, a neighbor called police because Trammell, who had knocked on her door, was \u201cacting strangely\u201d and \u201crunning around naked,\u201d according to the medical examiner\u2019s report.\nHe had not threatened anyone or brandished a weapon.\nAt some point after the West Milwaukee police first Tased Trammell, they called West Allis for backup.\nWhen paramedics arrived, Trammell was handcuffed and struggling on the ground. They gave him two sedatives, ketamine and midazolam, in an attempt to calm him down, the medical examiner\u2019s report says.\nBy the time they got him into the ambulance, Trammell had stopped breathing and had no pulse. He was pronounced dead within minutes of arriving at the hospital.\n'A believer all the way'\nAbout two years before his death, Trammell survived a similar incident, his parents said.\nHe was living in Milwaukee at the time and police were called because he was outside naked. He ran from officers who chased him, Tased him and took him to the Milwaukee County Mental Health Complex.\n\u201cI kept asking, \u2018Were you on drugs? What made you do that?\u2019 \u201d his father recalled. \u201cHe finally tells me that God created us naked and he was showing God that he was a believer all the way.\u201d\nLarry Trammell holds a painting made by his son, Adam, who died in May after being Tased by West Milwaukee police. (Photo11: Gina Barton / Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)\nLarry Trammell, who once worked as a minister, tried to explain that Adam and Eve soon covered themselves. But his son protested that they only did so after they succumbed to temptation in the Garden of Eden.\nWhen his parents worried, Adam reminded them that God was protecting him.\nThe last time his parents talked to him, they were all on the phone together, listening to a recorded Bible study. Kathy Trammell still carries her son\u2019s Bible, its pages marked and crinkled, its covers missing.\nShe said his proudest achievement was graduating from high school \u2014 something not all his five older siblings were able to do. He struggled in school because of his mental illness and was sometimes bullied because his mother was white and his father was black.\nKathy Trammell said she tried to teach her children to value their uniqueness.\n\u201cI told them they have the best of both cultures,\u201d she said.\nLarry Trammell said he never had issues with the police and always taught his children to respect law enforcement.\n\u201cI told them if you\u2019ve got problems, you call the police. You can\u2019t handle things in your own manner,\u201d he said. \u201cI taught them, you\u2019ve got to be careful when you go out in the world.\u201d\nThe father paused.\n\u201cBut he wasn\u2019t even out in the world. He was in his own home.\u201d\nRisks of Taser use\nNasci, the police chief, did not respond to an email requesting his department\u2019s standard operating procedures for Taser use.\nTasers have been used by thousands of law enforcement agencies since the early 2000s.\nTasers are designed to produce a low-level shock that temporarily immobilizes someone, making it easier to apply handcuffs. When an officer pulls the trigger, two wires with probes on the ends are released and become embedded in the person\u2019s body. Each trigger pull results in a 5-second burst of electricity. Holding down the trigger results in a continuous flow of electricity.\nA training guide disseminated by the state\u2019s Law Enforcement Standards Board states that electronic control devices should be used primarily if someone is actively resisting, which \u201cinvolves a subject who is physically counteracting an officer\u2019s control efforts \u2014 under circumstances in which the behavior itself, the environment in which the behavior occurs, or officer/subject factors create a risk of bodily harm.\u201d\nThe guide urges officers to consider whether someone is likely to fall before deploying a Taser. Water does not affect the devices or cause the risk of electrocution, according to the guide.\nOnce heralded as \u201cnonlethal,\u201d Tasers are now marketed as \u201cless-lethal\u201d \u2014 less likely to result in death than guns.\nThe company that produces Tasers, now called Axon Enterprise, told Reuters last year that only 24 people had died from its devices.\nBut Reuters uncovered \"1,005 incidents in the United States in which people died after police stunned them with Tasers.\" The news organization noted that \"it's impossible to know precisely what role the Taser played in many of the deaths.\"\nReuters obtained autopsy findings for 712 of the 1,005 deaths it documented. In 153 of the cases, \"Taser was cited as a cause or contributing factor in the death, typically as one of several elements triggering the fatality,\" according to the news organization.\nDeaths are rare when Tasers are used properly, according to the company.\nIn training materials, which can be found on its website, the company presents \u201csmart use considerations.\u201d\nAmong the recommendations is to give someone \u201ca reasonable opportunity to comply before force is used or repeated,\u201d and to \u201cbe able to justify every \u2026 trigger pull or 5 seconds of discharge under the specific circumstances presented.\u201d\nDeath by excited delirium\nThe medical examiner listed the cause of Trammell\u2019s death as excited delirium, a controversial condition often cited when police use force.\nSymptoms of excited delirium include aggressive or bizarre behavior, paranoia and high body temperature. Although pathologists cite the syndrome as a cause of death and emergency room doctors have procedures to treat it, excited delirium is not recognized by the American Medical Association or the American Psychological Association.\nExcited delirium syndrome can be caused by drug use, untreated psychiatric problems or extreme stress, according to Deborah Mash, a neurology professor at the University of Miami who has studied it for more than 20 years.\nTaser use can be a contributing factor, as can genetics, she told the Journal Sentinel in a 2014 interview following the death of Tony Bean. Bean's death, like Trammell's, was ruled as excited delirium after a confrontation with police.\nARCHIVE: Unanswered questions surround deaths in detention in Milwaukee County\nMash's lab has developed a postmortem test for a defective brain chemical that she believes puts people at greater risk.\n\"We train law enforcement to recognize this as a medical emergency,\u201d she said. \u201cThe plan is to get EMS there and to get them to the emergency room. Not every excited delirium patient who gets to the emergency room is going to be saved, but many are now. There's a critical window of time where an emergency room intervention will be successful.\"\nBut Werner Spitz, a pathologist and co-author of \"Medicolegal Investigation of Death,\" known as the \"medical examiners' bible,\" has called excited delirium \u201ckind of an unproven theory.\"\n'Something is wrong with our police'\nTrammell and his father had plans to someday build a church on their family\u2019s land in Arkansas.\nThe thought of doing it alone pains Larry Trammell, although he is certain Adam is now with God.\nHis parents want justice, and they want to prevent others from suffering at the hands of police the way Adam did.\n\u201cSomething is wrong with our police,\u201d his father said. \u201cThey\u2019re using those Tasers instead of using their minds and trying to communicate.\n\u201cThis should not have happened.\u201d\nCorrection: An earlier version of this story misstated the findings by Reuters.\nGovernment shutdown: Trump to sign border security bill and declare a national emergency\nMilwaukee Health Department staffer ousted after problems with family planning, breast cancer screening programs\n'You will always be family': Fallen Milwaukee Police Officer Matthew Rittner celebrated at funeral service\nRead or Share this story: https://jsonl.in/2nYbRRR",

        "title": "The Historical Juggling Props Museum \u00b7 IJA",
        "raw_content": "The Historical Juggling Props Museum\nIt all started with an email from Alan Howard. He remembered that I had said something years before about wanting to get a Van Wyck juggling club if one ever came available. Edward Van Wyck was the first maker of retail juggling clubs, starting in 1895. His workshop in Cincinnati, Ohio is about thirty minutes from my house. For both historical and geographical reasons, I\u2019ve long wanted one of these very rare props. Alan was emailing to say that he\u2019d been contacted by a juggler in California who had three Van Wycks for sale and wanted to see if I was interested. I jumped at the chance to obtain these tangible pieces of juggling history by contacting the seller and making arrangements to purchase the clubs. This was June 1st of this year. When I received the clubs a week later, I was quite happy. I know that may sound silly, but I had been through a tough year and was trying to take pleasure in the small things.\nThe Van Wyck clubs that started the collection.\nI started thinking about how many clubs Edward Van Wyck had made over his forty seven years of prop manufacturing and how few had survived. In my thirty one years as a juggler, these were the first I\u2019d ever seen. I recalled hearing many horror stories of vintage props being thrown away by the box full, used as paint stirring sticks, or just getting lost over time. This led me to the idea of combining my love for juggling history with my family\u2019s experience with collecting. My father was a long time collector of coins, baseball cards, and fossils and built a number of businesses out of his hobbies.\nI started by announcing my intention to build a collection of historical juggling props that I could show as an exhibit at juggling festivals and conventions. This was similar to what Paul Bachman had done at several IJA Fests with his fabulous collection. I posted this announcement on various online juggling forums, not knowing if I\u2019d get any response. At the same time, I contacted various friends and acquaintances in the juggling community that I thought might be able to contribute to the collection. The response was immediate. Jim Ellison donated five Stu Raynolds clubs. Mike Chirrick agreed to donate a ball that belonged to his mother, Lottie Brunn, as well as some of his old props. Anthony Gatto donated two of his clubs, including one of his very earliest childhood clubs, as well as his father\u2019s three wooden juggling plates. Tommy Curtin donated three Harry Lind clubs and two very rare Arthur Mann clubs. Dave Finnigan agreed to send a Lottie Brunn stick and a variety of rare clubs. The collection was off to a quick start.\nSome of the rare clubs that can be seen in the collection\nThe next big step was an offer from Scott Seltzer to host a website for the collection if I would buy a domain name. I purchased www.historicaljugglingprops.com and quickly built a website showcasing the small but growing assortment of props with lots of help from Scott. This was the true key to building the collection, as the site became not only an online museum of rare juggling props, but also a way of honoring the jugglers who used the props. It demonstrated that the project was more than just a passing idea, but was instead a serious endeavor.\nAt the same time, I began checking ebay and other auction sites for items. I have been able to find some very rare items this way, but these purchased items make up a small percentage of the collection. Almost everything else has been donated free of charge, especially the props belonging to well-known performers.\nFacebook was a key to contacting many of these performers or their descendants. When many jugglers or family members saw that this was an opportunity to preserve juggling history and honor the art form and artists, they were very receptive of the opportunity to contribute to the project. These same jugglers and family members were also a great resource for networking with other performers. The collection continued to expand and improve far beyond what I initially imagined.\nI also continued to research juggling history and became a bit of a detective regarding ancestors, prot\u00e9g\u00e9s, and mentors. This research led to more leads and props for the exhibit. In September, I showed the exhibit for the first time at the Assembly of Awesome near Toledo, OH. At that point in time, it only consisted of two eight foot tables. When I showed it two months later at the Not Quite Pittsburgh Juggling Fest, it had grown to six tables. I\u2019ve also converted a large room in my home into a museum for jugglers to visit when I\u2019m not showing the collection at festivals.\nDisplaying the exhibit at the Not Quite Pittsburgh Juggling Fest\nPart 2: The Collection\nRealizing that the collection is only five months old, I\u2019m astounded at what\u2019s come in. There are fifty-eight vintage, rare, or innovative clubs including seven Van Wycks and many other extremely rare clubs, such as those made by Rob Leith (Gemini Juggling), Lee Letchworth, Jay Green, Arthur Mann, and Rick Bright. I also have props from thirty performers, including iconic jugglers such as Francis Brunn, Lottie Brunn, Ernest Montego, Alexander Kiss, Bobby May, Rudy Cardenas, Gregory Popovich, and many others. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to have such a Hall of Fame-type roster represented in the exhibit, but the generosity and kindness of those in the juggling community has come through time and time again.\nA side benefit for me has been the opportunity to become friends with some of the juggling legends who inspired me when I was starting out in the early 1980s. The very first such juggler that I ever saw, via a television program, was Ernest Montego. My love of ball spinning and combination tricks was sparked by my repeated viewing of his act from that recorded television appearance. To now be able to chat with him and his wife on a regular basis and know that he has entrusted me with five of his props, dating back as far as the 1950s, as well as his final performance costume and other items, blows my mind. Likewise, to email regularly with Gregory Popovich, another early influence, is a blessing I never imagined would come from this project.\nThe exhibit also contains ten early examples of mass marketed juggling props going back as far as the 1940s. Finally, a small number of props used to break world records close out the collection. While my emphasis has been on props, I\u2019ve often received pictures, books, videos, and costume pieces along with the props donated. These additional items fill out my home museum set-up for those who stop by to visit.\nHome museum set up, left wall.\nHome museum set up, right wall.\nNot all of my research and inquiries have been successful. Some performers or families simply have nothing left to donate, having either given them away to museums or other collectors, or having lost the props over time. One or two wish to hold on to the few they have left for quite understandable sentimental reasons. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was the elderly gentleman in New England who has an entire basement filled with vaudeville era juggling equipment that belonged to his brother. This collection contains some amazing items, including three Bobby May clubs. After some discussion, he decided that he wants to hang on to everything in case his grandchildren and great grandchildren \u201cever want to play with the stuff\u201d!\nPart 3: Looking Ahead\nThe coming year holds many wonderful additions to the collection. Bob Bramson is donating some hoops. Dick Franco is sending me some items from his career. Tuan Le and Gina Shvartsman Cristiani are both sending in hats that they perform with so expertly. I\u2019m also very excited to be told that props from Rudy Horn, Alberto Sforzi, Tony Fercos, Art Jennings, and Francisco Alvarez will eventually be heading my way. I\u2019m also close to obtaining props from several well-known Russian juggling legends. Additionally, I\u2019m sure to find or receive many unexpected props, including some I\u2019m not even aware exist right now.\nI\u2019ll be showing the exhibit at next summer\u2019s IJA Fest in Bowling Green, Ohio along with Paul Bachman\u2019s collection in the History Lounge. I look forward to being able to share these wonderful props and their history with jugglers from around the world.\nJugglers viewing the exhibit\nWith everything that\u2019s been donated, I\u2019m no longer thinking that anything is out of reach. The Wish List page at www.historicaljugglingprops.com still contains plenty of names that I would love to have represented in the collection, including Enrico Rastelli, Massimiliano Truzzi, Trixie LaRue, Kris Kremo, Howard Nichols, and quite a few others. I\u2019m also still in search of some rare clubs made by Claude Crumley, Harry Parker, David Booth, Jack Miller, and Homer Stack, as well as a club / beanbag hybrid Jester club made by Freaks Unlimited of the UK. Considering how many wish list items have been found already, the coming year could hold lots of surprises.\nIf you wish to donate any items, refer some possible leads, or donate money to help expand the collection, please visit the Support page on the website. Any jugglers traveling through the Dayton or Cincinnati, Ohio area of the USA are welcome to contact me before hand to arrange a visit to see the collection. You can also contact me regarding showing the exhibit at a juggling festival. Finally, I want to thank everyone who has donated props or money, given advice or referrals, or just given moral support in this endeavor. I can\u2019t thank you all enough.",

The other is a Harris County woman who is approximately 30 years old.\nThe 1-year-old girl in Montgomery County is connected to one of the Harris County patients. We don't know which patient or how they are connected.\nRELATED: Measles: 11 things you should know\nAt least three of the children had received the first dose of the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine, but aren't old enough to receive the second dose.\nMeasles is highly contagious, and if one person has it, 9 out of 10 people around that person will also become infected if they\u2019re not yet vaccinated. About 1 out of 4 people who get measles will be hospitalized.\n\"It takes 2-3 weeks for the full incubation period. If we start to see more cases then, I think we have some real concerns.\" said Dr. Philip Keiser, an Infectious Disease Specialist with the Galveston County Local Health Authority.\nHe says the toddler in Galveston County who contracted measles had received the first dose of the vaccine, but is too young to receive the second, which is recommended starting at 4 years old.\nDr. Keiser says everyone should be vaccinated against the highly contagious air-borne illness.\n\"Over someone's life-time, it's 97% effective. 3% failure rate, so it's pretty good odds.\" said Dr. Keiser.\nMeasles is caused by a virus which spreads to others through coughing and sneezing.\n\u201cHowever, it is easily preventable. Parents and caregivers have the power to protect their children and themselves from this disease by getting vaccinated,\u201d said Umair A. Shah, MD, MPH, Executive Director for HCPH.\nThe last confirmed report of a measles case in Harris County was by the City of Houston in 2018.\nMontgomery County hadn't had a case since 1996. Galveston County's last case was in 2007.\nMeasles can be dangerous, especially for babies and young children. Measles is an airborne virus that lives in the nose and throat mucus of an infected person. It can spread to others through coughing and sneezing. Symptoms of measles are a high fever, runny nose, cough, red-watery eyes and sore throat that is followed by a rash breakout 3-5 days after symptoms begin.\nMeasles is prevented through the combination MMR vaccine.\nThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that children get two doses in order to be fully protected:\nThe second dose at 4 through 6 years of age\nThe best way to protect yourself and your family against measles and other vaccine-preventable diseases is by immunization. HCPH encourages individuals to contact their health care provider if they show signs and symptoms of measles.\nFor a list of recommended vaccines, please visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or speak to your health care provider.\nRELATED: What you need to know about the measles\nRELATED: Houston named one of 14 anti-vaccine 'hotspots'\nRELATED: Measles outbreak fuels debate over refusing vaccinations\nTimeline | History of Vaccines\nMeasles is caused by a virus, morbillivirus, that's spread primarily via coughing and sneezing, and is recognizable by its well-known rash, which spreads to cover most of the body.

That's why a new movie about his life, \"Full Court: The Spencer Haywood Story,\" debuts this weekend at the Seattle International Film Festival.\n\"I said, Spence...I think I wanna make a movie about you. And he got really quiet. I'm like Spence, are you there? And he's like, I've been waiting 40 years for this phone call,\" says executive producer Dwayne Clark of Redmond's True Productions.\nHaywood says his huge hands are best suited, not for basketball, but for picking cotton. The Supersonics legend didn't discover hoops until his mom MADE him a ball stuffed with cotton they'd picked together in Mississippi.\nFrom that homemade ball, he went on to change the game forever.\n\"That has given Seattle a place in history...that created the Michael Jordans, the Magic Johnsons, the Larry Birds..all of the great players, Lebron James, Steff Curry,\" he says.\nWhen Haywood was with the Sonics in 1970, he only played half the season because the NBA had a rule that required all players to wait four years after high school graduation to play. Haywood didn't think that was fair and made it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court to prove he was right.\nThis paved the way for thousands of subsequent players to join the basketball world's elite.\n\"Full Court\" debuts Saturday and Sunday at Cinema Uptown at SIFF in Seattle.",

        "raw_content": "Malaysia's election is a strange brew of 'fake news,' Cambridge Analytica and a 92-year-old autocrat-turned-reformer\n| Kampung Bukit, Malaysia\nMalaysia's opposition leader Mahathir Mohamad greets the crowd at a May 5 campaign event in Kedah State in Malaysia's northwest. (Simon Roughneen / For The Times)\nWith police investigating him under Malaysia's new anti-\"fake news\" law, Mahathir Mohamad, the nearly 93-year-old former prime minister turned opposition frontman, says his country faces its dirtiest election on Wednesday.\nThe governing coalition \"will cheat like mad, they will steal votes, but still I think we can win,\" Mahathir said in an interview with The Times, stepping off a makeshift stage and into a nearby BMW waiting to take him to yet another campaign rally.\nDefying his age, Mahathir had just wrapped up a half-hour stump speech in this farming area about a 20-mile drive from Aloh Setar, the capital of Kedah state, his home base.\nKedah has typically been a government stronghold, although the green flags of Malaysia's Islamist party also flutter along its roadsides. Mahathir wants to swing the state, and enough rural Muslim Malays across the country, to his four-party opposition grouping known as the Alliance of Hope.\nThat will be tough. The governing coalition has run the country since independence in 1957, and everywhere there are reminders of its sway. In Aloh Setar, and across nearby Penang state, a major tourism destination to the south, the dark blue banners and billboards of the ruling National Front are ubiquitous \u2014 another reminder that the opposing coalition, even one led by one of 20th century Asia's most formidable politicians, faces a daunting adversary.\nPedestrians walk past an election billboard featuring Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak in central Kuala Lumpur, the country's commercial capital. (Simon Roughneen / For The Times)\nAn authoritarian and anti-Western prime minister from 1981 to 2003, Mahathir made a surprising and belated switch to backing the liberal reformist platform of the opposition in 2016, turning on Prime Minister Najib Razak over allegations that around $700 million in public money was diverted from a state development fund into the incumbent's bank accounts.\nMalaysian courts exonerated the prime minister, who said the money was a Saudi Arabian donation that he mostly repaid. However the state fund is under investigation in several countries, including over alleged money laundering in the U.S. (Najib has not been named in the U.S. investigation and the matter was not raised by President Trump when the prime minister visited the U.S. last year.)\nThe country has also been roiled by allegations that \"fake news\" is being deployed on social media to influence the election.\nIn March, Malaysia was briefly caught up in the Cambridge Analytica-Facebook data mining scandal, when the British TV expose of now-defunct Cambridge Analytica showed one of its staffers boasting of influencing elections in Malaysia and other countries.\nMalaysia's opposition jumped on the comments, saying the government had questions to answer. The government said it had no dealings with the company.\nMahathir is being investigated by police over remarks he made a week ago, when he said he suspected his private plane was sabotaged after a pilot noticed some damage shortly before takeoff from Kuala Lumpur.\nPolice said they were trying to determine whether Mahathir's speculation contravened a new anti-fake news law passed last month, which prohibits the dissemination of \"news, information, data and reports which is or are wholly or partly false.\" A Danish citizen in Malaysia has already been charged under the law and another opposition politician is being investigated.\nSocial media were a major factor in driving the opposition's relative success the last time around \u2014 it won 52% of the popular vote, but only 40% of seats. Both sides are vigorously pushing campaign content on Facebook in particular, where Najib has nearly 8 million \"likes\" and \"follows\" and Mahathir almost 5.5 million. On Twitter the respective numbers are 4.13 million and 454,000.\nVincent Tan, a 22-year-old sales representative from George Town in Penang, an opposition stronghold, said he gets most of his election news from Facebook. \"I spend hours a day on Facebook,\" he said, laughing. \"I read the people's comments to see if the news is true or not.\"\nCampaign posters adorn lampposts on the waterfront in George Town, a major port and tourist destination in Malaysia's north. (Simon Roughneen / For The Times)\nConcerns about privacy and a sudden recent deluge of Twitter \"bots\" have led to people debating politics behind closed doors. Recent research by the U.S.-based Atlantic Council showed a preelection surge in anonymous Twitter accounts posting Malaysia-related content and appearing to take a pro-government line.\nThe government's fake-news law is driving still more voters into encrypted chat groups.\n\"The anti-fake news act [is] likely to accelerate this trend, as Facebook is more visible,\" said Cassey Lee, who tracks social and political use of social media in Malaysia for the ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute, a Southeast Asia-focused think tank.\nThe spread of fast and affordable data packages and the ubiquity of cheap smartphones mean that getting online to read news is easier than ever.\n\"The whole of peninsular Malaysia is now covered in 4G,\" said Yu Leng Khor, an independent political economist who has researched social media and app use in Malaysia. \"A rural family in Johor [a southern state bordering Singapore] can spend [$38] a month on prepaid data and they are all online.\"\nBut in a polarized country, more information does not necessarily mean a better informed electorate. \"In east Johor, where they are very staunchly in support of [the National Front], they get the news about scandals and other allegations, and they think it's fake news. They refuse to believe it,\" said Serina Rahman, an anthropologist who studies rural Malaysia.\nNajib's National Front coalition is campaigning on its economic record \u2014 Malaysia is growing at 5% to 6% a year and per-capita GDP is the third highest in the region after wealthy city-state Singapore and oil-rich Brunei.\n\"These are the achievements of all Malaysians, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise,\" Najib said in a sharply worded preelection statement Monday. \"Don't let the opposition rubbish those achievements by saying they don't exist, or wildly claiming that the country is on the verge of going bankrupt. They criticize for the sake of criticizing but offer nothing of substance in return.\"\nSpeaking before thousands of supporters at a succession of campaign events last week, Najib said he feels pity for Mahathir, whom he described as \"a recycled candidate,\" and, injecting some ethnic-religious edge into their rivalry, said Mahahir was being \"used\" by ethnic Chinese politicians on the opposition side.\nWith the 25% of Malaysians who are of Chinese descent likely to prove staunch opposition supporters, Mahathir's popularity is seen as key to opposition hopes of swaying enough of the 60% of Malaysians who are Muslim ethnic Malays to their side.\n\"I'm very proud of [Mahathir]. Although he is very old now, he still want to fight [sic] for Malaysians,\" said a 33-year-old homemaker, Siti Aziz, after listening to Mahathir's speech in Pokok Sena.\nProhibitive laws such as the fake-news code, a ban on Mahathir's image being used on billboards, and a March 28 constituency redrawing mean that even if the opposition wins the popular vote, as it did in 2013, it will still not end the ruling National Front's six decades in office.\n\"It's safe to say that it would require a spectacular performance by the opposition in terms of turnout and Malay support in order to pull off a victory,\" said Kai Ostwald, a Malaysia watcher at the University of British Columbia.\nRoughneen is a special correspondent.",

        "raw_content": "Understanding The Different Types Of Termination Of Parental Rights\nTermination of parental rights is based on a court order that permanently ends the legal relationship between a parent and a child. After the relationship has been severed, the child can be placed for adoption in a nurturing and secure family environment. Termination of parental rights can be voluntary or involuntary, depending on several factors.\nThere are several circumstances in which a voluntary termination is requested by a parent. Single expectant mothers and victims of rape or sexual abuse may choose to place an infant for adoption. Parents who have given birth to an infant with severe and irreversible birth defects may choose adoption as a means in which to provide medical and supportive care for their child. Surrogate mothers are required to terminate parental rights before the baby can be adopted by new parents. There are some instances in which an absent parent will consent to a voluntary termination of parental rights, especially if the custodial parent has re-married and the new spouse wishes to adopt the child.\nAll jurisdictions in the United States have statutes and regulations providing for the involuntary termination of parental rights by a court. Before ordering the involuntary termination of parental rights, courts must determine, through documented evidence, that the parent is unfit to care for the child. There are several grounds that warrant the termination of parental rights, including chronic abuse or neglect, unsafe or unsanitary living conditions, a documented history of alcohol or substance abuse and a history of sexual abuse or violence in the home. Serious felony convictions, including murder, aggravated assault, kidnapping or child abuse can be grounds for termination of parental rights.\nDuring the pendency of an involuntary termination proceeding, the child is usually placed in a foster home. The Adoption and Safe Families Act, referred to as the ASFA, is a federal law enacted in 1997 for the purpose of facilitating the timely adoption of children in foster care. The law was established to promote national goals of safety, health and well-being of children. ASFA laws and procedures require the termination of parental rights if a child has been in foster care for 15 months in a recent 22 month-period.\nCan I Contest Termination of Parental Rights?\nThere are circumstances in which you can contest the involuntary termination of your parental rights. The assistance of a child custody lawyer can help you locate programs and resources available to help you avoid termination of your parental rights.",

One of the strengths of MVC is that control it gives you over the HTML emitted to a browser. But with that control comes responsibility, and you'll find that you have to work to implement more security features. The nice thing is that the infrastructure is all there out of the box to make your job easier. During this Live Learning event, we'll explore some advanced security topics outside the realm of authentication and authorization, as well as a few that aren't so advanced but not used as often as they should.

We have a variety of different student positions throughout all of the University libraries (including the Regenstein, Mansueto, Crerar, Social Services Administration, and D'Angelo Law libraries) and offer opportunities for students from all disciplines and with all levels of experience.\nStudent positions at the University of Chicago Library are available only to current University of Chicago students who are enrolled at least half-time. Incoming students are not permitted to hold student positions until until the quarter in which they enroll. This means if you will begin your studies at the University in the fall, you will not be eligible for Library student employment until Autumn Quarter begins.\nAccording to the University of Chicago Student Manual, a registered student employed by the University may work no more than 20 hours per week total while classes are in session.\nFor more information about working at the University, please visit UChicago Student Employment.\nStudents interested in working for the Library must apply online via the Library Student Employment Application. You will be prompted to provide your CNet ID and password in order to access the application.\nOnce submitted, your application will be available to all hiring managers for 12 weeks. The Library uses a pool application system, rather than asking students to apply for individual jobs; on the application, you can indicate your specific areas of interest.\nPlease make sure you include your scheduling availability on the application, including the number of hours you would like to work each week. Because certain departments require availability during standard business hours (i.e., Monday - Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.), many supervisors weed applications based on availability.\nWe welcome applicants with work-study awards. If you have received a Federal Work-Study Award, please be sure to include the award amount on your application.\nIf a hiring manager determines that your skills, experience, interests, and availability would be a good fit for an open position, they will contact you.\nWhile we wish that we could offer every interested student a job, it's simply not possible. We receive hundreds of applications every year, and there are only a handful of available jobs at a time. Job availability usually depends on student employee turnover, so there is no way to predict when jobs will become available.\nIf you encounter any issues with the application system, please email hr@lib.uchicago.edu.\nInterested in a Specific Unit?\nWe welcome applications from interested students at any time.\nOn the application, students can indicate departments and functions of interest. If we have specific opportunities currently available, we'll list them below.\nBibliographic Student Assistant for Slavic, Eastern European, and Eurasian Materials\nSCRC Archives and Manuscripts Accessions Assistant (Architectural Drawings Project)\nEven if no specific positions are posted here, we may still be hiring.\nStudent employees must report to Library Human Resources before their first day of work to complete new hire tasks.\nNew employees must present identification to demonstrate eligibility to work in the United States. Examples of such documentation include:\ndriver's license/state ID/school ID and social security card.\nOther documents as described in USCIS Form I-9\nLibrary Human Resources staff must see the original documentation; photocopies and scans are not acceptable. International students will require additional documentation, and may be required to apply for a Social Security Number.\nNew student employees may not begin working until all new hire tasks have been completed.\nPlease be advised that students are employed on a quarter-by-quarter basis. Generally, a student may expect to continue in a position for the regular academic year. However, continued employment is based on the Library's needs and budget, and the student employee's ability to meet departmental performance standards.\nFor additional information regarding student positions, please contact Library Human Resources.",

        "raw_content": "I have a great personal \u201cwin\u201d as a wonderful example of the Law of Attraction.\nOut of the blue I was offered 2 tickets to see a popular musical tonight because the people who purchased them couldn\u2019t go so they thought of me. That alone is a great \u201cwin\u201d, but there\u2019s more wins to tell.\nWhen I pulled up to the theater they had several parking lots and each one was loaded with cars. I pulled into the closest lot to the theater and saw a long line of cars in front of me all heading towards the very back of the lot.\nSuddenly the attendant who was in charge of that lot came over to my car and said \u201cwhy don\u2019t you take this spot\u201d and pointed to the very first spot in the lot. Apparently they were saving it for someone but for whatever reason they never showed. So there I was offered the prime spot that was practically saved for me! What a wonderful \u201cwin.\u201d\nOnce inside I was taken to my seat which was in the center, and in the orchestra section. To make it even better, it looked like every seat was taken except the seat directly next to me! The empty seat next to me gave me more leg room and made it much more comfortable.\nHow many wins can I have in one night? Apparently many!\nWhen you live with an awareness of the Law of Attraction and choose to use the processes and techniques I teach my clients, nights like these are bound to happen!\nI hope whoever reads about my \u201cwins\u201d tonight, also had some great wins today as well.\nWishing you \u201cwins\u201d every day.\nBy David|2015-09-01T17:56:52+00:00March 7th, 2015|Abraham, Law of Attraction, Life Coach, Self-Help, The Secret|0 Comments",

We were reminiscing about old trips when my mom surprised me by interrupting the conversation.\n\u201cDanny, what exactly are you looking for?\u201d\nEven though it wasn\u2019t the first time I had been asked that, I was still surprised. I cocked my head to the side and began to think. I didn\u2019t have an answer then but about a month later the answer came into focus. I was walking around the streets of Stockholm, Sweden when it hit me.\nOne of the hidden benefits of pursuing my bucket list has been that it forces me to try out new cultures and ways of being. It puts me in new places and surrounds me with new people. This on-going process has given me a better idea of where I want to eventually end up. It doesn\u2019t make any sense to try to figure out where you want to spend the majority of your life or who you want to spend it with if you don\u2019t first explore the opportunities that are available.

All I am doing now is filling in my map.\nI wrote this while sitting in a cafe in Florence, Italy. I am feeling quite good at the moment. I attribute this to all of you.\nI really appreciate all of the support that all of you have given me. It really means a lot to hear your comments and see this blog grow. I wish all of you the best of luck on your own personal journey.\nHey Danny, last week I made a big decision. I\u2019m selling most of my stuff, quit my apartment and will soon start living a dream I had for so long : I\u2019m moving to Europe. In a day my priorities almost completely reversed and traveling ended up becoming first :) I booked a one way flight yesterday and rented a room for 5 weeks.

        "raw_content": "How alive are y. . .\nHow alive are you?\nOur life force is the source of our energy, vitality, enthusiasm and health. What stops it from manifesting fully, and how can we live unfettered and free?\nTHE CELESTINE INSIGHTS\nJames Redfield\u2019s The Celestine Prophecy offers riveting insights into how we human beings use ingenious ways to steal energy from each other, until we learn to connect to the true source of energy \u2013 the universe. Some of the key insights are:\n\u2022 The basic stuff of the universe, at its core, is a kind of pure energy that is malleable to human intention and expectation in a way that defies our old mechanistic model of the universe\n\u2022 Since we have been disconnected from the larger source of this energy, humans psychologically steal it from others. Most people are in a constant hunt for someone else\u2019s energy.\n\u2022 Humans must learn to gain energy from the universal source, not other humans.\n\u2022 Everyone manipulates for energy either aggressively, by directly forcing people to pay attention to them, or passively by playing on people\u2019s sympathy or curiosity to gain attention. Aggressive styles include the interrogator and the intimidator. While passive styles include the aloof and the poor-me persona.\n\u2022 People use more than one drama in different circumstances, but most of us have one dominant control drama that we tend to repeat, depending on which one worked well for us within our family. A person goes to whatever extreme necessary to get attention/energy from his/her family.\nPause for a moment and recapture how you felt when you were passionately involved with something \u2013 a book, a game, creating a piece of art, or even being in love. You felt intensely elated, brimming with joy and charged with energy. That intense burst of energy which coursed through your very being, can be termed the life force, the presence of which determines the quality of your life.\nWe have all met people who have seemed blessed with an abundance of this energy. They not only have time for numerous activities, but also breeze through them all. Even in adversity, they never lose their equilibrium or their equanimity. When you meet them, you feel positive, vibrant, as if some surge of energy has brushed off on to you. And there are those of us who crumble into a miserable heap with each vicissitude and snap at every little problem, from someone overtaking us on the road, to the maid not turning up for work.\nIn his landmark book, The Celestine Prophecy, James Redfield talks about how the entire universe is actually a large and dynamic energy field, and everything that occurs on this conscious plane is an energy exchange.\nWe draw continuously from this magnificent and all-pervasive source and at any given point in time, we ourselves are a conduit to this vast energy field. When we open ourselves to it, this life force floods us with passion, enthusiasm, and love, and connects us to the very source. We are one with it. There is surrender as well as release. It opens the floodgates of creativity and happiness.\nWhat hinders and stems this flow of energy within each of us are the psychological blocks and emotional barriers that we erect, largely as a part of our upbringing. Our attitudes and belief systems come in the way of experiencing this life force to its fullest.\nAs Rumi, the peerless Sufi poet puts it: \u201cYour task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.\u201d\nEach one of us has the potential to lead productive, energetic and fulfilling lives, if only we allow this life force to flow freely through us, without creating mental obstacles or blocks.\nThe Chinese call this vital force chi or ki, while the Hindus call it prana. The knowledge that our bodies are filled with life force energy and that this is directly connected to the quality of our health, has been part of the wisdom of many cultures for thousands of years, and has resulted in the development of many different forms of energy medicine.\nInterestingly, the amount of chi or life force in our bodies is not constant and keeps fluctuating. \u201cResistance to change, in almost all areas of my life, bogged me down. I used to feel listless and lethargic, prone to anger outbursts and sullen moods,\u201d says Mitali Mukherjee, college lecturer and mother of a teenage daughter, who has been working on her \u2018low-energy phases\u2019 for several years now. What gave her insight into her persistent down spells was meditation. \u201cI started practising Transcendental Meditation (TM) five years ago, and it took me deep within myself. I started introspecting, questioning my thoughts and beliefs. It is a long and hard journey, but I feel much more in control of my feelings now. As a result, I find I have a lot of energy \u2013 I don\u2019t feel as wound up and coiled as I used to.\u201d She admits her journey has just begun but already she has sensed a glimpse of the breakthroughs that she can unleash once she unblocks her energy centres.\n\u201cLearning to forgive has opened up a whole lot of energy for me,\u201d says Neetu Ghia, who was holding on to the immense resentment that she felt when her husband walked out on her and her seven-year-old daughter, two years ago. \u201cI also learnt how to catch on to any negative thought that arose in my mind, watching how it drained my energy and how it affected the quality of my next thought. I have now gotten into the habit of monitoring my thoughts this way, nipping any adverse thought that crops up immediately, and replacing it with a more upbeat one.\u201d Admittedly it wasn\u2019t an easy task, since she had to go through a lot of \u2018inner cleansing\u2019. Intensive psychotherapy has brought to the fore her role in the situation, and has helped accept this responsibility and deal with it. \u201cI was holding on to a lot of emotional baggage and the blame game meant that I was forever stuck in the victim mode. This is a really draining mode, as I was besieged with self-pity, a poor-me self-image, which spiralled into low confidence and self-esteem levels.\u201d\nLife force blockers\nHoarding of any kind, whether of material things or emotions, clutters up the space through which energy can otherwise flow. If you accumulate things out of a sense of insecurity, or hold on to feelings that serve you no purpose other than to bog you down, you are effectively reducing your life force. You are getting locked into a position that offers no respite or any progress.\nAnother potential block to the free flow of life force is lack of self-acceptance. Accepting the self, without judgement and with love, is the basis of self-esteem. Difficult as it may be to do, accepting yourself exactly as you are at the moment is the most fundamental tool at your fingertips to enable you to move into an expanded and energised space of self-confidence.\n\u201cI was a lot of things to many people, but I didn\u2019t know who I was to myself,\u201dconfesses Meera, who flits between being a dancer, painter, mother, wife, and a professional architect. She struggled with her sense of self, confused about which career path to take, unable to reconcile the several conflicting themes central to her life. This struggle to discover her true self robbed her of the pleasure of the very things that she loved to immerse herself in. Finding and feeling comfortable about our identity is a crucial aspect of being in touch with the life force that centres us. Clarifying your identity, those unique characteristics that unfold your true self, can give you a fresh lease of life, no matter how old you are and no matter what you have or haven\u2019t accomplished.\nMuch of our vital force is also depleted by the \u2018masks\u2019 that we wear \u2013 it takes energy and concentration to present an image that is different from who you are to the outside world.\n\u201cThe moment I stepped out of the home, I would don a variety of masks that I thought would make people \u2018like\u2019 me more. I was \u2018needy\u2019 for respect, wanted people to see me in a good light, and always had a psychological face to be put forward in order to get me that,\u201d says Vikram Deshpande, who admits to feeling irritable and negative at the end of each day. \u201cIt was as if someone had put a load on my mental being, and it came to a point when I didn\u2019t know who I was anymore.\u201d A rude wakeup call in the form of a spinal problem, forced him to recognise that this wasn\u2019t a life he was enjoying, or even a life where he was playing his own role. \u201cBut the real hard work started from there onwards. I had to uncover hard and often unpalatable truths about why I was using those masks in the first place. I had to face \u2013 and confront \u2013 my inner demons.\u201d\nPeople wear emotional masks for a variety of reasons \u2013 to shield themselves from being wounded by others, or to protect their emotional territory from invasion and assault. They use the social mask to intimidate, mystify, and prevent others from getting too close. Their mask keeps others asking, \u201cWho is this person? Does she mean me harm or good?\u201d\n\u201cI realised,\u201d says Deshpande, \u201cthat constantly donning a false mask is a cowardly, and ultimately an energy-draining attempt at dealing with your fears. Instead of confronting them directly, you wall them off inside your true self, while allowing your alter ego to navigate the world. The mask acts as the buffer between you and others. This way people don\u2019t insult or reject you, they don\u2019t let you down, they simply deal with your false front while you\u2019re hiding in the back.\u201d In effect, people can\u2019t touch the real you. The mask puts distance between you and the world and allows you to spurn personal responsibility for your actions and words.\nThis too is a manifestation of poor self-esteem and the resolution to that will require deep inner work. Louise L. Hay offers many techniques to help boost self-esteem. These include mirror work where you stand in front of your mirror and tell yourself that you love yourself. You could also repeat affirmations to yourself that centre on loving and forgiving yourself. Remember that we are part of the Creator and therefore whole and perfect. You just have to eliminate anything that stops you from recognising that.\nNever too old to love life!\nForce facts\nA person\u2019s posture remarkably gives clues to his or her levels of energy. An upright back, sparkling curious eyes, avid smile and arched shoulders nearly always accompany those with high levels of psychic energy. You can feel their positive vibes as you enter their energy field; you end up being revitalised and recharged. Drooping shoulders, listless eyes, a forced smile, and a stooping posture, on the other hand, almost always indicate ebbing energy levels.\nAn unrestricted life force makes us givers \u2013 generous with our time, efforts, trust, possessions, talents and love. We extend ourselves \u2013 to help, to make another happy, to spread cheer. A sapped life force makes us takers \u2013 emotionally dependent, stingy with our resources and miserly with our trust. We tend to siphon away the energy of even those we meet to compensate for the lack of our own.\nA low life force also gives rise to health issues since this vital energy is responsible for good health and balances the body. The absorption of prana happens in many different ways, but breathing is the main source. Improper and superficial breathing drains the energy and causes health afflictions. When this is sustained over a prolonged period, illnesses begin to manifest in the body. All diseases and health problems can ultimately be traced to improper breathing and blockage of energy channels.\nIn his path-breaking book, The Road Less Travelled, M. Scott Peck talks of the connect between our emotions and feelings and our spiritual life. The energy that orders or disorders our emotional self is the energy that contributes to our spiritual growth. People who nurture their spiritual lives are more open to the life force, renewing their selves, regrouping their life strategies and reassessing their thoughts to open up channels that allow more of the life force in. They work on themselves with unrelenting honesty. \u201cIt is in the process of meeting and solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the cutting edge that distinguish failure and success. Problems call forth our courage and wisdom; indeed, they create our courage and wisdom. It is only because of problems that we grow mentally and spiritually,\u201d says Peck.\nLiving in the moment is an energy-freeing experience that has few rivals. Observe the maids who come in to cook, clean, scrub, wash, dust and mop our houses day in and out. They tackle the work of so many households even as their homes are beset with financial and social problems. But they don\u2019t skip a beat as they go about their work. My maid, Indu, whose house is made with a few poles and a plastic sheet that serves as the roof, has her home demolished every few months. She rushes out and is back the next day, having slept out in the open under the stars, all her family\u2019s belongings left in the open without any security, with a smile on her lips recounting the horrors of the night before. She then goes about her work as if nothing out of the ordinary has occurred. The reason I discovered was her ability and resilience to live completely in the moment. She doesn\u2019t hanker after things that were lost, or about how she is going to go about building her house again. She lets go of the past as easily as she leaves the worries about the future. She simply slips into the present \u2013 her entire being and energy is concentrated in the now.\nThe purest example of life force in unbridled action is a child. Unencumbered by the past or labels, unrestricted by the opinions of others or the worries of tomorrow, a child at play is a child brimming with life force. Children are so completely transparent, completely rooted to the present moment and so completely in charge of their actions.\nEnergy or life force is ultimately a dynamic entity, a free flowing source, the origin of life itself. Stem it and it stops. Prevent its flow and it gets blocked. But release it and go with its flow, and a miraculous, life-affirming energy touches and transforms your consciousness. You become life itself.",

        "raw_content": "Many people have heard of Our Lady of Guadalupe, but few people know her story. In this talk, speaker and catechist Luis Soto (who himself was born and raised in Mexico) shares the little-known history and life-changing importance of Mary's appearance to a peasant man named Juan Diego, and the miraculous image she left behind. Loved by millions (including St. John Paul II), Our Lady of Guadalupe is a patron and example of how to share the Gospel with the whole world.\nInspirational, Mary, Saints\n\u201cThis is the thrilling romance of Orthodoxy. People have fallen into a foolish habit of speaking of orthodoxy as something heavy, humdrum, and safe. There never was anything so perilous or so exciting as orthodoxy.\u201d\nIn a time when relativism prevails in our culture, the choice to be an \u201corthodox\u201d Christian can seem \u201cheavy, humdrum, and safe.\u201d G.K. Chesterton recognized this over a hundred years ago, and it is still true today: people have become deaf and blind to the high adventure of the Christian Faith.\nOf the numerous works that Chesterton wrote, the most brilliant synthesis of his philosophy and deeply religious faith is manifested in his masterpiece, Orthodoxy. Written when he was only thirty-four, it tells, in his inimitable, soaring prose, of his earthshaking discovery that orthodoxy is the only satisfactory answer to the riddle of the universe. Orthodoxy is perhaps the most outstanding example of the originality of his style and the brilliance of his thought. C.S. Lewis and many other emerging Christian thinkers have found this book a pivotal step in their adoption of a credible Christian Faith.\nIn Orthodoxy, Chesterton sets out on a quest to defend Christianity\u2013contemplating its strange yet true paradoxes, examining today's unhinged modern philosophies, and ultimately concluding with the deliriously joyful truth of the Good News. Never has a defense of Christianity been so compellingly unorthodox as in Orthodoxy. An intellectual and spiritual autobiography of sorts, Orthodoxy describes Chesterton's journey, a rip-roaring adventure, of discovering the ONe who is Goodness, Truth, and Beauty itself.\nG.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was one of the most beloved and prolific writers of the twentieth century. He established his fame as a playwright, novelist, poet, literary commentator, pamphleteer, essayist, lecturer, apologist, and editor. THe depth and range of his work are astonishing.\nA convert to Catholicism in 1922, he defended the Church long before he was Catholic himself. Known in his time for his distinctive appearance and astonishing presence, he is known today as the \u201cprince of paradox\u201d and the \u201capostle of common sense.\u201d\n\u2013 Copyright 1908, this edition re-printed in 2018\nC.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity is a work that has impacted generations of Christians. It is a brilliant explanation and defense of the Faith that has led many to follow in the way of Christ. But as profound and wise as it is, it is still incomplete. It gives direction for a sincere disciple to follow Christ, but that disciple might not be quite as willing to follow Christ through St. Peter.\nThis is what Dwight Longenecker's book, More Christianity, does. It follows Peter into the Catholic Church. In a time when thousands of Christian denominations exist, and Protestantism still remains strong in the United States, why be a Catholic? More Christianity gives thorough and insightful answers to many of the main questions and hotly contested debates that arise from non-Catholic Christians. Lest someone think Longenecker presumes to piggyback or cash in on Lewis' work, or set himself up as Lewis' successor, that is not the case. What he does-and does brilliantly-is present the doctrine of the Church with succinct explanations of topics that arise in Catholic/Protestant discussion: common ground in the Scripture, the role of tradition, the Mass, the papacy, Marian dogmas, purgatory, the communion of saints, prayer, and more.\nThis abridged edition of his work leaves nothing wanting and invites the reader to consider many of Lewis' greatest triumphs of Christian apologetics as well as some of his deficiencies. In Longenecker's skilled hands, More Christianity leads the disciple into knowing that he follows Christ when he follows Peter's successor in the Catholic Church.\nDwight Longenecker was brought up an Evangelical, studied at the fundamentalist Bob Jones University, and later was ordained an Anglican priest in England. After ten years in the Anglican ministry as a curate, a chaplain at Cambridge, and a country parson, in 1995 Dwight was received into full communion with the Catholic Church. He has published in numerous religious magazines and papers in the UK, Ireland, and the United States, writing on film and theology, apologetics, biblical commentary, and Catholic culture.\n\u2014 Abridged Edition\nBishop Robert Barron offers five sermons on the spiritual discipline we must cultivate in the Lenten season, a discipline centered in Christ. These meditations cover topics such as finding our identity in God, prayer as the key to mission, our thirst for God, how to end our alienation from God, and how to joyfully embrace the way of happiness.\n\u201cA powerful, sincere reflection... Deep, yet easy to understand.\u201d\t Julie - Holyoke, CO\nSuicide is the second-leading cause of death for youth and young adults. Yet despite the many TV shows, movies, and articles on this topic, suicide, depression, self-harm, and loneliness remain difficult subjects for adults of any age to discuss. Speaking with honesty, humor, and personal experience, Noelle Garcia tackles these issues head-on, encouraging those who are struggling (or know someone who is) that God's mercy and love are waiting for them; that you, and your life, truly matter.\nNoelle's talk is both highly entertaining and deeply moving. She reminded me that no matter how bad things may seem, there is always hope. Everyone I know needs to hear this.\n\u201cLuis is a joyful and intriguing presenter. He clearly loves Our Lady, and telling this remarkable story.\u201d\n\u201cI had heard of Our Lady of Guadalupe, but not like this! I learned many new and interesting details that I didn\u2019t know before.\u201d",

She also set a new world record for the fastest ever Ironman sanctioned event at Ironman South Africa in April 2011.Chrissie has displayed unprecedented levels of stamina, strength and competitiveness in becoming Ironman World Champion in only her second event at Ironman level. Her victory in Kona, Hawaii in 2007 finishing five minutes ahead of her nearest rival was described as the 'biggest upset in Ironman history' and 'a remarkable feat, deemed to be near impossible task for any athlete racing as a rookie at their first Ironman World Championships'. She defended her World title in Hawaii in 2008 and again in 2009. However a bout of severe sickness on the eve of the 2010 event meant she was unable to make the start line to defend her title. She bounced back in 2011 to retain her title in her most fiercely competitive race to date, which adds another fantastic chaper to her extraordinary sporting career.This is the remarkable story of how a Norfolk girl - a 'sporty kid, swimming, playing hockey, running, but never excelling and always more interested in the social side of the sports scene' - became a world champion.\nCatherine Whitlock's PhD in Immunology at the University of London was followed by ten years of post-doctoral research in cell biology and immunology.

        "raw_content": "The Sensitive, Passionate Character\nWe\u2019ve been taking a look at the second key \u201ccorner pillar\u201d in this course on the 12 key pillars of novel construction, which is all about the protagonist and her goal for the book. I mentioned in recent posts how important it is for the protagonist to have a goal and how obvious and simple that might seem, yet few novels I critique include this necessary element\u2014which I will say is crucial.\nIt\u2019s very common for the protagonist to start off with one goal, only to quickly (meaning, yes, fairly early into your story) be pushed in another direction altogether, creating a \u201cnew\u201d goal\u2014which then becomes the \u201creal\u201d goal for the book. Without going into this twist in depth, you can read all about it in this post I wrote a while back. But for now, just be aware that, tied in with your concept and themes, there should be an overarching or main goal your character is trying to reach. I explained there are five main types of goals in stories, so whether your protagonist starts out the gate pursuing one of those goals or is shortly redirected to do so, a goal must be set. Whether he reaches his goal is up to you and depends on the genre and type of novel you are writing. But without a goal for your character (and I will be so bold as to say any of your main and supporting characters), you cannot have a strong novel. But I\u2019m going to take this a step further because I\u2019m hoping that many of you want to write not just a good book but a great book. And a great book has great characters.\nWhat Is \u201cLarger Than Life\u201d All about, Anyway?\nSo what makes a character great? You\u2019ve heard phrases like \u201cmake them larger than life\u201d or \u201cyour character has to be sympathetic.\u201d Yes, those things are important, although the expression \u201clarger than life\u201d sounds a bit vague. Do you want all your characters to be extreme? Overly obnoxious, overly emotional, overly sensitive, overly dramatic? Is that what larger than life means?\nI\u2019ve written a number of posts on the question about the \u201ceveryday man\u201d or \u201cordinary people.\u201d We want our readers to relate to our protagonist, right? She should be an average Jane, facing the things we ordinary people face, right? Well, yes and no. Yes, we must be able to relate to a writer\u2019s characters. We do need to quickly care about the protagonist, find her sympathetic. There are lots of great ways to do that, and I\u2019ve discussed this in many prior posts.\nThe key is in showing the protagonist\u2019s humanity, vulnerability, sensitivity, that glimpse of greatness. All those things are helpful. But ordinary people are boring. I\u2019ve critiqued hundreds of novels filled with very boring, average people, and I\u2019m sad to say\u2014I try to care for them but I don\u2019t. Readers usually look for any excuse to care for your protagonist. They want to care. Writers, though, shouldn\u2019t make this hard for their readers. They should be mindful of wooing the reader right away, get them attached, bonded, concerned for the protagonist as fast as possible.\nIt\u2019s All about the Goal\nWhich takes us back to the big question: Really, how do you do this? I will say this: it\u2019s not just about creating fascinating, sympathetic, vulnerable characters with quirky larger-than-life personalities. What makes the reader really latch on to your character is when you tie all that \u201cpersonality\u201d in with a goal. A meaningful goal. Meaningful for whom? Why, for your character, of course.\nDone right, you could get readers to root for a character who collects worms or whose goal is to win a cake-baking contest at her church. Really? Yes. How can that be done? How can you make readers get riveted to a novel about a character with such lame goals as that? It\u2019s all about one word\u2014a word I tend to point out to my editing clients time and again.\nIf your protagonist does not have a goal he is passionate about, then it\u2019s going to be hard to get your reader to care. There, I said it. I know some of you will disagree with me, but this is the fatal flaw I see in so many books I read, edit, and critique. Sure, they\u2019ll have a nice protagonist. Maybe a really neat one that is quite unique and engaging. And maybe even sometimes that character will have a goal she is going after . . . sort of.\nWhat I see is there is a kind of nebulous wandering about with some bit of intention and wanting something that pops up here and there, but nothing focused. From time to time the protagonist may want something, depending on the scene. Which makes the novel seem like a string of scenes, without much purpose or point to the book. This is so endemic to novels, I can\u2019t overemphasize the importance of passion.\nA protagonist needs a clearly stated goal. Whenever that character gets going after her goal (whether from page one or after some initial disturbance that pushes her through that first \u201cdoor of no return\u201d), she needs to go after it with passion. It\u2019s a simple word, really. Here\u2019s how Merriam-Webster\u2019s defines passion: \u201cintense, driving, or overmastering [dominant] feeling or conviction.\u201d\nThink of the great movies and books you love. Think of the characters in those stories you love. I think about Sherlock Holmes, Mel Gibson in Ransom (or Lethal Weapon, The Conspiracy Theory, The Patriot), Liam Neeson in Taken, just about every character in Lonesome Dove, just about every character in Downton Abbey. What makes a great character great? Passion. Passion with a goal. In a TV episode, that \u201cgoal\u201d may change, but the passion remains the same. And that passion is all tied up with theme, for passionate people believe in things, and those things are the \u201cthemes\u201d of their lives.\nEven a couch potato jerk can be passionate with a goal. He may live for the SF Giants and won\u2019t touch a pizza unless it\u2019s pepperoni and made by the local pizzeria ten miles away. He may only be a secondary character, but he\u2019s going to be memorable and \u201clarger than life\u201d if he\u2019s passionate about something. All your characters can be passionate, and all should have goals. Your antagonist, if you have one, will be passionate about stopping your protagonist from reaching his goal. That\u2019s his goal.\nA Reason for the Passion\nSo spend some time with your protagonist (and eventually all your main characters in your story). Ask him what he\u2019s passionate about and why. And be sure to give him good reasons. Passion without reason is like picking characters based on some personality profile charts at random. You\u2019re telling a specific story for a specific reason. I hope it\u2019s because you are passionate about the story you are telling.\nTo show that passion you have for your story, you populate your novel with characters who feel passionately one way or another about your theme (yes, we are talking about theme here, and we\u2019ll go much more into this in future posts). And when your protagonist is passionate about these thematic elements, you will show him reaching for a goal that will matter\u2014not just to him but to the reader. Why will the reader come to care about that goal? Because you\u2019ve made him care about your character.\nIf your character really wants to win that cake-baking contest, and she is passionate for a good reason, and the themes in your book are big (she could want the prize money to save an orphanage, for example), you could have a strong key corner pillar for your novel. Making a cake just to win a blue ribbon will not cut it. Making a cake to save a child\u2019s life or to make a dying mother\u2019s wish come true will. It\u2019s all about the passion.\nI hope this has given you something to think deeply about. Don\u2019t let the lack of passion in your story be the fatal flaw that causes structural failure. Give your protagonist a goal, an important goal he\u2019s passionate about and for good reason. Then see how this takes your story to a higher level. If you missed last week\u2019s posts about classic heroes and dark protagonist, read this here. And get ready to dive into the third corner pillar: conflict with high stakes!\nGot passion? Share some comments about your novel and how this helps you see your story in a new light. And be sure to work on these inspection checklists to make sure you are constructing strong pillars that will support your novel!

Thank you.\nE.M. LaBonte\tMarch 12, 2014 at 8:00 am\t#\nThis post hit the nail on the head. It\u2019s all about the goal and how the characters drive toward that goal. It took me a while to really get that with my own writing. I was too focused on the characters and not what the needed/wanted or were trying to avoid. Strange but true. Thanks so much for this post. It\u2019s a great way to put it in perspective. \ud83d\ude00\nMichael Tevlin\tMarch 12, 2014 at 8:09 am\t#\nWonderful post, C.S. I worry that my characters\u2019 goals are not specific enough. For example, my 18-year-old protagonist, facing high school graduation and choices about college, career and life, starts the book knowing that he hates where he lives and doesn\u2019t fit in. Immediately, his goal could be stated in his P.O.V. as, \u201cI want to find a place where I belong.\u201d Is that a strong and specific enough goal?\nThat would be his spiritual/emotional goal and very valid. Be sure to search my blog and read the posts about character goals, especially about the two MDQs that must be asked. In addition to that emotional goal that has to be resolved at the climax of the book, you need him to have a visible plot goal. He may not know it in the first scene, but the book has to be about more than his emotional state. Something has to happen in the story. So as the inciting incident comes into play and sets him on a path, make clear what that goal is and looks like. It\u2019s the outward vehicle of the inner journey. Make sense?\nTraci Kenworth\tMarch 12, 2014 at 8:21 am\t#\nI see what you mean. It does take a passionate character with a goal to keep a reader interested. Great post!!\nThanks, all. I am sensitive and passionate myself about this topic. I think it\u2019s so important and that\u2019s why I wrote a post just on this one quality.\nSherry Marshall\tMarch 12, 2014 at 2:38 pm\t#\nFantastic and to the point. It makes me think that it\u2019s true of life as well. Being passionate about something in our life makes for a much more meaningful and interesting life which is why it works in a book too. It also made me think about my supporting characters who now need a clearer goal for themselves rather than just being \u2018for or against\u2019 my protagonist.\nMarcia\tMarch 12, 2014 at 5:16 pm\t#\nWhat a helpful post! My main character has a goal, but I\u2019m not sure the readers can see why he has that goal. I\u2019m going to go through my chapters and make sure it\u2019s clear. Thank you.\nDestination Infinity\tMarch 12, 2014 at 7:23 pm\t#\nThis article could have started from the subheading, \u2018Passion\u2019.\nWhile passion is important, I feel, it could be garnished with other qualities like courage, empathy, determination, etc. Secondly, passion should be for a worthy cause. Not pizzas and such.\nYes, other qualities are helpful, but characters who feel strongly about things makes them compelling. And secondary characters need not be passionate about \u201cworthy causes.\u201d What makes a book rich and diverse is the many kinds of characters in a story, so there is surely a place for those supporting roles to be \u201cpassionate\u201d about \u201csmall\u201d things like pizza. Those small passions provide humor, conflict, and help make a book engaging so that readers are drawn into the story and turn pages. You can\u2019t have every single character in a book on fire about deep, important things. It would be imbalanced. And consider: a character with a lot of courage is someone who is passionate about being courageous. Same with empathy and determination. Those characteristics imply some kind of passion in what they feel or believe.\nPatrick Neer\tMarch 13, 2014 at 9:50 am\t#\nThis was a great post! I do have a question, though- How would you effectively write the couch-potato character with his San Francisco passion? Does a passion that small (or focused, I suppose) have enough weight to carry a story?\nThe passions of minor characters don\u2019t carry the weight of a story. Your protagonist needs the big thematic passion, but my point was that every character can and should be passionate about something. That can create great conflict and tension. One of my favorite movies is Legends of the Fall. Each character has huge passion, all different and clashing. A great example of this idea.\nCC Riley\tMarch 15, 2014 at 2:10 am\t#\nI have always wanted my MC to be passionate, and even my major supporters, but I\u2019ve never thought about all of my minor supporters as well. Thanks for this post!\nAngela Byrne\tMarch 24, 2014 at 7:27 pm\t#\nThanks for another great post, and a great insight! When I think of writers who are known for crafting memorable characters (such as Charles Dickens and JK Rowling), ALL of their characters have a passion for something\u2026even if that passion might seem frivolous to others. This is what makes all of them (even the secondary characters) interesting enough to remember and invest in. I agree with you that passion can be for big things or for small \u2013 the variety makes for a more interesting, textured story. Thanks again for a great post!\nhomunkomunasta\tMay 9, 2014 at 7:52 am\t#\nIt is really important for my character to not be passionate.It\u2019s the point of the whole story. How to make the readers interested in the events in the book when everything is seen through the disinterested eyes of a protagonist?\nThat\u2019s an interesting question. Can you sustain reader interest in a character who cares about nothing? Who has no real drive or desire? If nothing at all is driving him in the story, it may be that he is passive and external forces are happening to him, which is not going to appeal to readers. Now you might have a great device here showing a story through an objective POV and that is very doable so long as the story being shown reveals characters striving for things and in conflict, with a purpose. You can have a dispassionate narrator, but I feel you cannot have a dispassionate protagonist. Your narrative may really not be the protagonist of the story, so without knowing more about your novel, I can\u2019t really answer specifically.",

Be careful what you wish for: that dream became a reality when my \u201cLove 2.0\u201d hit the shelves in 2018. This new book is not about travel souvenirs. It\u2019s about my greatest nemesis: love. \u2018Love 2.0\u2019 has to do with finding harmony and bringing it into concert with your life. In this article I\u2019ll share one of the most important reasons that compelled me to write this book. It\u2019s not a pretty story.\nMeditation and Medication\nFor many years I did everything I could to forget the past: expensive therapy, a library of self-help books, meditation, and even medication. I was actively resisting all the painful experiences from my past. The more I put my past behind me, the less effect it would have on me, I reasoned. But the more energy I directed towards my problems and pain, the more \u201cstress\u201d and \u201cdis-ease\u201d I continued to create in my life. There have been days I wish I didn\u2019t wake up in the morning. After recovering from a painful divorce, I was looking for a transition. I wanted to attract a new relationship into my life. Instead I focused all my energy on holding on to my pain from the past.\nLife flows, but it doesn\u2019t always flow the way you want it to. I had to not only accept my reality, but deal with it, live it, and live with it. I couldn\u2019t blame anyone else for those circumstances. In rethinking and reframing my memories, I wanted to share my story as if the past didn\u2019t exist. I wanted to write this book of love without referring to the past, without admitting to my flaws and failures. But it doesn\u2019t work that way. Life repeats itself. You have to change your response to get a different outcome.\nThe Limiting Beliefs of Separation\nAs long as I continued to hold on to painful memories and limiting thoughts and beliefs, I continued to create separation. In the end I had to foot that bill myself. I didn\u2019t just create separation in my relationships, but essentially from my true self. I separated myself from love. I had to let go of the emotional pain of a break-up, past failures and the need for external approval. Thoughts like, \u201cI\u2019m not attractive\u201d or \u201cI will never have a loving relationship\u201d didn\u2019t help. I had to consciously let go of those limiting beliefs. If you are your unique self, you will mature, grow and develop as a human being. You\u2019ll always be on an adventure, enjoying life.\nBecoming Younger: One day at a time\nSome even say being authentic makes you younger. If you are mediocre and not living your truth you will feel unfulfilled and unhappy. I learned to live for the moment, and take things one day at a time. A day at a time was all that my depressed mindset could handle anyway. Embracing the moment became the cornerstone to escape my depressing reality and build an unlikely future. I committed to a year of transition, symbolized by planting a new tree in my backyard. Its growing roots became a visualization of me becoming more grounded every day as a person. I wasn\u2019t going to be the person I was expected to be anymore. I committed to have a good day, today, regardless of what my own plans for that day might have been.\nIn order to make room for what you do want, you have to release and let go of the things you don\u2019t want. To attract what you want, you have to let go of everything that keeps you away from love. Live in the moment and let the rest of the world sort itself out. Commit to yourself:\nThis is my life and I\u2019m going for it.\nThis post contains an excerpt from The Freedom Project Love 2.0: An Upgraded View To The Way Humans Relate To Each Other. It\u2019s available on Amazon and pretty much anywhere else you buy books.\nThe Freedom Project philosophy is to live free through travel, work, and love. Ultimate freedom means designing a lifestyle of wealth, health and abundance, without having to make concessions. This book is for those who don\u2019t want a regular life, but dare to choose excitement, joy and abundance. Love is about creating new ways to take your relationships in all areas of life to the next level. Love, the ultimate journey through life, will help you discover all that \u2013 and more.\nGet The Freedom Project \u2013 Love 2.0",

You can try several things when you need to access money but don't have time to wait, but not all of them were created equal. For example, going to the bank to request a loan might seem appealing, but you will not likely get the outcome for which you are hoping. If you don't have great credit, then your odds of getting a normal loan are slim. You can overcome that problem and take control of your situation by getting title loans in Alton.\nMany people are still not sure what a title loan is or how to get one. A title loan makes it simple for those with bad credit or no credit to borrow money when needed. Title loans are meant to be a short-term solution for those who don't have enough cash to survive until they get paid, but it's also a great option for anyone who encounters an unexpected bill. You will use the title of your vehicle to secure the loan. If you are worried that the process is difficult, then put your mind to rest. Getting started does not need to be complicated, and you can even get online car title loans.\nTitle Loans Alton Application Process\nHave you decided that getting title loans in Alton is right for you and your needs? If so, then it's time to start the application process, which is easy and straightforward. First, collect some basic information about the car or truck that you will use as collateral. The loan company will then use the information to provide you with a quote for an auto title loan, and you can decide if the amount you can borrow will help you reach your financial goals.\nIf you are ready to get title loans in Illinois, leave your contact information, such as your phone number, name and ZIP code. At a time that is convenient for you, a title loan representative will contact you. So, you can discuss the terms of the title loan and ask any questions that come to mind. When you are ready to move forward, simply provide your title and collect your funds. In some cases, the bank might take up to 24 hours to receive your funds, but transfers are usually completed instantly.\nTitle Loans Alton Legal Details\nYou might want to get a title loan quickly and access your money, but learning about the requirements for a title loan might be a good idea, preventing you from encountering avoidable problems. Anyone who is at least 18 years old and is a vehicle owner can legally get a title loan. So, you will need to show some form of government identification when you collect your cash and complete the loan process. The state has put that law in place to prevent anyone who is under the age of 18 from signing up for a title loan.\nAlton Title Loan Benefits\nLet's take a look at some of the great benefits you can access when you get a title loan:\nGetting a title loan enables you to get money quickly and easily, and you will not encounter any stress along the way.

        "raw_content": "Nearly 4% LIRR Fare Hike Proposed by MTA\nLIRR riders arrive in Long Beach (Photo by Joe Abate)\nThe MTA has proposed raising Long Island Rail Road ticket prices up to nearly four percent as part of a series of fare and toll hikes planned over the next two years.\nThe proposed LIRR fare hikes tops out at 3.75 percent, which translates to up to $15 monthly ticket increases or $6.75 weekly ticket increases for the longest trips, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced Wednesday. Some single-trip LIRR fares could jump as much as six percent, but not by more than 50 cents, the agency noted.\nThe MTA board will vote on the proposal in January, following a series of eight public hearings\u2014including one on LI. If approved, the hikes would take effect on March 19, 2017.\nThe proposed fare hikes are the same for the LIRR as they are for Metro-North. The MTA also proposed increasing New York City subway and bus fare from $2.75 to $3. Drivers may also see tolls increase from $8 to $8.50 for the Queens-Midtown Tunnel and $16 to $17 to cross the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, for those ineligible for resident discounts.\nMTA officials said the fare and toll hikes are needed to keep the transit agency\u2019s budget balanced. The hikes were broken up over the course of several years to make them as small as possible, they said.\nThe lone public hearing on LI for the proposed fare hikes is scheduled for 5 p.m. Dec. 7 at the Hilton Long Island, located at 598 Broad Hollow Rd. in Melville. Those unable to attend can have their comment video recorded at the Hicksville LIRR station from 6-10 a.m. Dec. 13 or the Ronkonkoma station from 6-10 a.m. Dec. 15.\nLIRR riders can also submit their comments through the MTA\u2019s website, mta.info, where a chart outlining the specific fare hikes for individual train stations will be posted at a later date. Or, riders can also mail their comments to MTA Government Affairs, 20th Floor, 2 Broadway, New York, NY 10004.\nPrevious articleMastic Beach Votes to Dissolve, Making it Third-Shortest-Lived Village in NY\nNext articleNational Popular Vote Movement Closer To Changing Presidential Elections",

This time we find out what has happened to them since then.\nTracey is the body language and relationship specialist for the programme and provides some amazing dating advice that everyone, from the professional player to the dating amature, will benefit from.\nSadly the original Would Like To Meet book is out of print now, but if you want some great dating tips, check our Tracey's Pocket Superdate.\nWe caught up with Tracey to ask her about the show and get the inside gossip:\n'Would Like To Meet' was originally aired in 2001, since then do you think people have taken a step forward or back, socially speaking, when it comes to flirting?\n\"I think we're pretty much in the same place because although internet dating has made enormous differences to dating, in that you really can go 'boy or girl shopping' anytime, anywhere, at some point you still have to meet up and have that first date. And then we have the same problems we've always had.\nHas internet dating made a much of a difference?\n\"Instant messaging, internet dating, Facebook, MySpace, all these have made it easier to find someone who's right for us but you still need to close the deal face to face.\nI think there's still a need for a show like 'Would Like To Meet' which taught real relationship skills, rather than just matched people up.\"\nWhat was the success rate like on the show?\n\"Well, we had three weddings, one engagement, five babies and only four of the 12 people we contacted are still looking for love. All of them attributed the show as being responsible for their newfound happiness - which is really really nice for us. It's lovely knowing that you've helped someone in such an important way.\"\nHave you ever had to coach someone who you felt was an impossible challenge?\n\"The people who can't be helped aren't willing to change. If you're willing to change you can achieve anything.\nI have worked with people who wanted me to wave a magic wand and cure them but weren't willing to face any hard facts or change old, tired patterns of behaviour that weren't doing them any favours.\"\nFor more information and dating tips, visit the Tracey Cox advice page and remember to tune in to BBC2 at 8pm every Thursday for the next 6 weeks for the wonderful Would Like To Meet Again!\nJake: September 14, 2008 01:41\nGorgeous, Australian, Sex and Relationships Author?

The Fiji Times is one of the few independent media outlets in the country, and it was widely believed that the charges were politically motivated. The ruling has led to calls for the offence of sedition to be repealed. Fiji\u2019s Director of Public Prosecutions, however, has announced that he will appeal the High Court\u2019s decision.\nAt Devpolicy, Matthew Allen asks if Hela Province, in the PNG Highlands, could become the next Bougainville. He cautions that social tumult in the province, unleashed by the Exxon Mobil\u2013led Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) project and heightened by February\u2019s devastating earthquake, could potentially escalate into a protracted armed conflict similar to the 1989\u201398 Bougainville Crisis.\nA Sydney Morning Herald report has revealed that a group of approximately 50 workers from Vanuatu were paid as little as $8 an hour and were exposed to dangerous working conditions while participating of the government-run Seasonal Worker Programme.

        "raw_content": "Rosetti Superyachts Adds Two New Tri Deck Cocepts by Giovanni Ceccarelli to its Range of Supply Vessels\n05:25 PM Friday 18 Jan 2019 : Italy\n-Both new concepts meet this mission with design solutions that make maximum use of the main deck for transporting tenders and toys\n-Interior general arrangements offer an owner's stateroom on the upper deck with 180-degree views aft through the full-height glazing and a private terrace\nSpecialising in the construction of steel and aluminium superyachts, explorers, support and supply vessels of between 35-140 metres, Rosetti Superyachts presents two new projects that reinforce its design philosophy and brand mission.\nBoth new concepts meet this mission with design solutions that make maximum use of the main deck for transporting tenders and toys, and through careful study of the interior layouts.\nThe steel hull forms have been developed to provide low hydrodynamic resistance by drawing on similar processes used in the design of racing sailboats. The superstructures are of aluminium, with composite materials used for the top deck, in order to ensure optimal weight distribution and a low centre of gravity to reduce motions and increase comfort under way.\nBoth interior general arrangements offer an owner's stateroom on the upper deck with 180-degree views aft through the full-height glazing and a private terrace for complete immersion in the marine environment.\nThe 35-metre concept has an 8.25-metre beam with space on the main deck aft for stowing a tender with accompanying crane and a 6.7 sq/m infinity pool. Alternatively, with the pool covered there is room for a mini submarine in addition to the tender.\nInside, there is a spacious main salon with dining area and forward galley that can be directly accessed from the crew quarters.\nBelow deck, four ensuite cabins provide comfortable accommodation for 8 guests. The upper deck is dedicated to the owner's use with the master stateroom, bathroom and walk-in wardrobe located aft to provide wide vistas of the sea over the private terrace.\nThe 50-metre concept has a beam of nearly 10 metres, which offers even more interesting layout solutions. The main deck, for example, is arranged on two levels and covers a total area of 170 sq/m, including a 13 sq/m infinity pool and expansive beach club. The pool is heated so it can still be enjoyed as a hot tub in colder climates. Alternatively, the space can be used to carry various toys or a mini submarine for underwater exploration. The tender is housed inside a dedicated garage.\nLike the 35-metre concept, the main deck features a generous open-plan lounge and dining area separated by the staircase and integrated bar unit. Again, the owner's suite is located on the upper deck overlooking the aft deck. The sun deck is equipped with a Jacuzzi, dining and relaxation area.\nBoth designs have a gross tonnage below the 500GT threshold and are powered by twin MAN main engines (1,000hp and 1,400hp each for the 35-metre and 50-metre respectively) that combine comfort and efficient performance at displacement speeds.\nThe two projects have been developed in collaboration with Giovanni Ceccarelli, a yacht designer with long experience particularly in the field of sailboat design. His many notable achievements include roles as chief designer of Mascalzone Latino, the 2003 America's Cup contender, and +39 Challenge that competed in the 2007 Louis Vuitton Cup. A life-long sailor, Ceccarelli loves to start from scratch with a hand sketch when he begins a new design for a shipyard or owner.\n\"The two designs for Rosetti Superyachts came about from my desire to work with a shipyard that I know very well as it is based in my own home town of Ravenna, and from my longstanding friendship with Fulvio Dodich,\" says Ceccarelli. \"In both concepts, the hulls and superstructures are part and parcel of each other, much like in sailboat design. They are not simply exercises in 'redressing' a standardised platform; instead, the hull lines and topsides are inextricably linked to give continuity to the whole. I wanted to create an original exterior profile distinguished by clean, essential lines that eliminate superfluous elements to arrive at a truly timeless design.\"\n\"These new concepts join our stable of projects developed by two other designers and already presented,\" says RSY partner and chairman Fulvio Dodich. \"The brand mission of Rosetti Superyachts is to provide our clients with as much flexibility as possible by offering a wide range of different proposals that can be further customised according to their needs.\"\nInformation from Rosetti Superyachts\n#Rosetti Superyachts #Supply Vessels",

        "raw_content": "Did Anybody Really Know What Time It Was?\nA version of this essay was first published as a Viewpoint by the Mackinac Center in April 2002.\nRemember the old Chicago song \u201cDoes Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?\u201d Well, if you had asked that question in Michigan about 120 years ago, you could have received 27 different answers. Since October is the month we turn our clocks back an hour, it is timely (pardon the pun) to recount how \u201cstandard time\u201d brought order out of what was once an astonishing degree of confusion.\n\u201cIn every city and town,\u201d historian Stewart Holbrook wrote in 1947, \u201cthe multiplicity of time standards confused and bewildered passengers, shippers and railway employees. Too often, errors and mistakes turned out disastrously. \u2026\u201d\nPeople in the continental United States have become so accustomed to four standardized time zones \u2014 Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific \u2014 that it is hard to believe that we ever kept time any other way. But until a crucial date in 1883, what time it was depended on the nearest city or town. The time of day was a purely local matter, determined by the position of the sun. Noon was when the sun was at its highest point in the sky. Local people set their timepieces by some well-known clock in their respective communities, such as the one on a prominent church steeple or in a jeweler\u2019s window.\nThis meant that when it was noon in Chicago, it was 12:31 p.m. in Pittsburgh, 12:24 in Cleveland, 12:13 in Cincinnati, and 12:07 in Indianapolis. Or, when it was noon in Detroit, it was about 11:50 a.m. in Grand Rapids. Indeed, there were at least 27 different local times within the state of Michigan alone. Indiana was slightly less confusing, with just 23 local times, but Wisconsin \u2014 with 38 \u2014 was a clock watcher\u2019s nightmare.\n\u201cIn every city and town,\u201d historian Stewart Holbrook wrote in 1947, \u201cthe multiplicity of time standards confused and bewildered passengers, shippers and railway employees. Too often, errors and mistakes turned out disastrously, for railroads were now running fast trains on tight schedules; a minute or two might mean the difference between smooth operation and a collision.\u201d\nIn 1872, railroad officials from around the country met in Missouri to arrange summer passenger schedules. To address the time problem, they formed a permanent organization to work on a solution. In October 1883, this body (then known as the General Time Convention) approved a plan, conceived entirely through the ingenuity of private citizens, to establish standardized time zones. It chose the date of Nov. 18, 1883, for the adoption of the new system by virtually every railroad in the country. \u201cRailroad time\u201d quickly became the new \u201clocal time\u201d everywhere \u2014 or at least almost everywhere.\nOne of the holdouts was the city of Detroit. The view that the sun, not man, dictated what time it was enjoyed broad support in the city. Henry Ford complained about the disparity; he designed a watch with two dials, one that kept local time for when he was in Detroit, and another that kept standard time. Time marched on, but Detroit did not.\nDetroit stuck to local time until 1900, when the City Council ordered clocks to be set back 28 minutes to comply with Central Standard Time (yes, Central). The problem was that half the city obeyed and half refused, which made the confusion even worse.\nFinally, the City Council rescinded its order and reverted to the old time. Somebody made a facetious offer to erect a sundial in front of City Hall, but it was scornfully referred to the Committee on Sewers. It wasn\u2019t until 1905 that Detroit, by a citywide vote, adopted standard time and became part of the Central time zone.\nWhile standardized time zones were embraced voluntarily by most of the country, the federal government actually sought to prevent it. The U.S. Attorney General ordered that no department of the federal government could run according to the new system until authorized by Congress. In March 1918, about 35 years after standard time began, Congress finally put Washington, D.C.\u2019s stamp of approval on what had been accomplished largely through private initiative. It made one major adjustment, however: It took Michigan out of the Central time zone and put it in the Eastern zone. Aside from a small slice of the Western Upper Peninsula, the state remains there today.\nWhat time is it? Thankfully, almost no matter where you live in Michigan, there\u2019s been a uniform answer to that question for about a century.\nLawrence W.

As one 250 rider put it after the race: \u201cGod bless those 450 guys.\u201d It was also a night that featured the greatest of battles between two elite athletes\u2014a night that everyone will say they attended, even if they didn\u2019t.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a challenging track,\u201d said Ryan Dungey after the race. \u201cThe obstacles were tough, as well as the ruts, they just develop and the whole track starts to deteriorate.\u201d\nThis wasn\u2019t the first time that Ryan Dungey had to keep cool under the pressure of Ken Roczen. He faced the same challenge just a week earlier in Santa Clara (albeit on a much different track) for 20 laps to claim his sixth win of the season. It helped on this night, as Dungey fought constant pressure from Roczen. Dungey wasn\u2019t his normal immaculate self, though\u2014this track wouldn\u2019t allow it.\n\u201cA track like this isn\u2019t going to be mistake free,\u201d said Dungey. \u201cI think I had my fair share of mistakes, but I tried to minimize the damage.\u201d\nCudby\nAt this point\u2014after nearly forty laps of trying to force Dungey into mistakes\u2014Ken Roczen has to be thinking: what more can I do? On this night, Ken was aggressive from the start, jumping all over Eli Tomac for second after he started around sixth. He seemingly came out of nowhere to pass Tomac, and then set his sights on Dungey, reeling the points leader in before taking him high in the corner prior to the whoops. Dungey responded\u2014quickly and with authority\u2014not wanting Roczen to sniff any confidence. Roczen continued to force the issue, keeping Dungey within striking distance at all times. By lap 15, lappers became an issue\u2014each rider dealing with their fair share. Dungey struggled to get around Mike Alessi (who was running inside the top ten) and when he did, he made a mistake in a tough first rhythm section. The following lap, he made another in the same section\u2014this time Roczen was able to capitalize and took the lead for the first time.\n\u201cWhen you triple onto the table you got soft ruts\u2014not only is it ruts and deep but they pull you left and right. So you get pulled and then you have to land onto a tabletop, which isn\u2019t hard, it\u2019s soft, so when your bike lands it sucks up all your travel and the only thing it wants to do is go left or right .. well, it\u2019s your job to muscle the bike and keep it in line,\u201d Dungey said of the tough rhythm section that was giving him trouble.\nIt wouldn\u2019t last, as Roczen soon made his mistake on the dragon\u2019s back before the finish\u2014a section that claimed a number of riders throughout the day and night\u2014allowing Dungey to get back around. It didn\u2019t faze Roczen, he continued to push the issue until the checkers. But Dungey was steadfast, holding strong for his seventh win on the season and his 29th straight podium finish.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been forty laps of no breathing room,\u201d said Dungey. \u201cAt the end of the day, I have to do the best that I can do and I\u2019m gonna give it my all.\u201d\n\"Ultimately I wish the race kept going for another five laps. The track was really rough out there, but we kept fighting the whole way,\" said Roczen. \"I was able to make a pass for the lead but I made a mistake right before the finish and couldn't make the jump, so that gave [Dungey] back the lead. I made another mistake later and that pretty much ended it.\"\nHow fast was the pace Roczen and Dungey were setting? They finished an incredible 27 seconds (!!!!) ahead of third place Jason Anderson.\nAfter the race, Anderson said the track required a lot of patience and that he was happy with a podium. \u201cThese type of tracks bite me, so I\u2019m happy with what I was able to do.\u201d The podium was the third straight for Anderson, who now sits 18 points behind Ken Roczen for second. Behind Anderson was HRC Honda\u2019s Trey Canard, who had his best finish of the season in fourth.\nFrom left: Roczen (2nd), Dungey (1st) and Anderson (3rd) were the 450 podium.Cudby\nHis ride will get overshadowed by the epic battle up front, but Yoshimura Suzuki\u2019s Blake Baggett was strong with his first top five of the season. His teammate, James Stewart, pulled out prior to the main event citing an ankle injury.\nChad Reed, Christophe Pourcel, Justin Brayton, Eli Tomac and Mike Alessi would round out the top ten.\nCan the 250SX East Region get any crazier? A series that\u2019s featured a points leader unable to race due to visa issues, multi crashes from contenders and five different winners in five rounds delivered another night that will be talked about for days.\nWe said after his heat race win\u2014where he held points leader Malcolm Stewart at bay\u2014that we may have seen a signature moment from Aaron Plessinger. And it came to fruition, in the same state he claimed his first ever win, at last year\u2019s Lucas Oil Pro Motocross\u2019 Ironman National. Plessinger grew up a few hours away in Ohio and raced GNCC events in the area. He feels comfortable here\u2014on this dirt and in front of what he says were nearly 100 family and friends (you could literally hear an entire section cheer for him on the podium).\n\u201cI\u2019ve raced in Indiana quite a bit,\u201d he said. \u201cThe dirt, the ruts, everything, they are pretty good to me and I like ruts, coming from GNCC. I love rough, rutted tracks and that combined with a little skill (laughs)\u201d\nIt was a night of highs and lows for the Yamalube/Star Racing team. On one hand, they got a win and are still in title contention with Plessinger just 10 back of Malcolm Stewart after his win. On the other, Jermey Martin, who was second in points coming into the night, crashed in the tricky rhythm section that was giving fellow Minnesotan Ryan Dungey trouble. We spoke with Jeremy after the race and he said he was fine, that it wasn\u2019t an ankle or leg, but that he hit his stomach hard. He wanted to continue racing, but his bike was messed up from the crash.\nThe beneficiary of his crash was Malcolm Stewart, who finished second and holds a 10-point lead in the standings. Stewart held Plessinger in his sights, but mistakes on this tough track cost him a chance for the win.\n\"Hats off to Aaron. Now he knows what it feels like to win,\" said Stewart. \"I'm happy with second. I can't take anything negative from this. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and hopefully I keep the red plate [as the points leader] and win this championship. We only have four races left, so we'll keep trying to get those points.\"\nMartin Davalos was in line for third but made a mistake on the dragon\u2019s back, giving Gannon Audette his first podium\u2014in his first ride as a fill-in for Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki.\n\u201cComing into the weekend, I knew what I wanted to do, but I didn\u2019t really have any expectations and to land on the podium was awesome,\u201d said Audette, who couldn\u2019t wipe the smile off his face, after the race.\nDavalos would rebound for fifth, one spot behind Shane McElrath. RJ Hampshire, Anthony Rodriguez, Tyler Bowers, Luke Renzland and Cedric Soubeyras would round out the top ten.\nThe 2016 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship rolls into Indianapolis for Round 13 (of 17). It\u2019s a chilly 34 degrees outside, which feels more like 25 when you factor in the wind chill. The return to the Midwest also means the 250SX East Region is back in action for the first time since Detroit on March 19. On the heels of his first win of 2016 in Detroit, GEICO Honda\u2019s Malcolm Stewart enters the weekend with the red plate and a seven point lead over Yamalube/Star Racing Yamaha\u2019s Jeremy Martin. Martin\u2019s teammate Aaron Plessinger is third, thirteen points behind Stewart.\nKTM announced late yesterday that Marvin Musquin would miss this weekend after injuring his wrist in a practice crash in Santa Clara last weekend. Team manager Roger DeCoster said the team \u201chopes\u201d he will only miss a race or two. \"Marvin was doing so good this year and it's a bummer that the crash last weekend happened,\u201d he said. \u201cWe hope that it will be kept short, to one or two races, and then he can resume racing.\" Musquin underwent surgery last off-season on his wrist, and was behind schedule entering the season. He\u2019s been rolling lately, though, racking up four straight podiums before his crash in Santa Clara.\nTroy Lee Designs/Red Bull KTM\u2019s Justin Hill will miss his second straight race due to a concussion sustained in Detroit when he crashed in the second 250 timed practice session at the end of a fast rhythm section. TLD said that Hill tried to ride this week before deciding to sit out the weekend. A return date has yet to be determined.\nIn good news for KTM, Ryan Dungey enters the weekend forty-two points clear of Ken Roczen. Dungey\u2019s podium streak has reached twenty-eight straight dating back to Round 2 at Phoenix last year, and he needs two more wins over the next five rounds to tie his career-high of eight set in 2015.",

        "title": "9 Web Design Mistakes to Avoid Like the Plague - MARION Marketing",
        "raw_content": "9 Web Design Mistakes to Avoid Like the Plague\nIt can be hard to look at your website objectively. We often have the tendency to embellish the strengths of our websites and downplay their weaknesses.\nIn this post, we\u2019ll cover nine of the most common web design mistakes that cost businesses like yours traffic, leads, and revenue.\nWhat makes a web design effective?\nBefore we dive into the mistakes that people make when designing their website, let\u2019s look at the elements that make up a good web design.\nThe most effective web designs balance four key factors into one seamless package:\nUsability / UX\nYour website should have visual appeal. Visual appeal is about creating a sense of credibility with the user. We\u2019ve all been to an outdated or ugly website, and the initial impression is that the owner of the website doesn\u2019t have the money to invest in something better.\nYour website should be well branded. Your logo should be top left or top center in some cases. Users are 89% more likely to remember logos shown in the traditional top-left position than logos placed on the right. Other elements like typography and imagery should also be consistent with your brand to improve brand recognition and recall.\nYour website design should be focused on the user experience. It is not uncommon for web designers to design a beautiful website that results in a terrible user experience. It isn\u2019t enough to focus only on getting a user to complete some action that you want them to complete.\nInstead, determine why a user would be on your site and what their goals might be. Then design the site in a way in which you help them achieve their goals more easily. Using this approach will help you further your own goals.\nReadability is an often-overlooked pillar of web design. Ensure that when a user is on your website, regardless of the device that they are on, reading your content is easy, if not enjoyable.\nIt\u2019s not always a simple task to effectively combine all of these elements into one web design, and in most cases, continuous updates should be made to your website to continue to improve its effectiveness. However, if you work with the right web design company, you can get a head start on this continuous optimization process.\nNow, let\u2019s have a look at the nine most common web design mistakes:\n1. Poor Readability\nAs we\u2019ve already covered, readability on the internet can be a very common issue. Avoid the common pitfalls and do the following:\nSelect a font for the bulk of your content that is easily read.\nUse sentence case for the bulk of your content.\nAvoid large blocks of unbroken content\nEnsure that you have the right kind and amount of contrast between your text and your background (e.g. red text on a black background is quite possibly the worst)\nDon\u2019t use justified alignment\n2. Hard to Find Contact Info\nIncluding easy to find contact info on your website is a no-brainer for most business owners, but can sometimes be overlooked by designers. Often, a designer is so focused on designing a visually appealing website that they lose sight of the fact that the website has a focused function and that is to generate leads and customers.\n3. Visually Overwhelming\nDon\u2019t fill every inch of your website. One of the most common arguments between a designer and a business owner revolves around the amount of whitespace in a given design.\nLet there be no mistake about it, whitespace matters. It\u2019s whitespace that allows a design to draw your attention from one element to the next and create a visual hierarchy that leads the user to where they want to go, and if done correctly, where you want them to go.\n4. Over-engineering\nLike the whitespace debate, the over-engineering debate can be fairly common. More often than not, it works in the reverse of the whitespace debate in that a developer ends up pushing for functionality that they want to add that is not necessary for the website to be effective.\nIt is always important to ask the question as to whether the added functionality will add value to the user, or just dollars to the cost of the website.\n5. Few or Poorly Designed Calls-To-Action\nCalls-to-action are the lifeblood of your sales funnel. Well-placed, well-written, and well-designed calls-to-action can turn your website into a lead generation engine.\nA lack of calls-to-action or poorly designed calls-to-action can render your website ineffective and see highly qualified individuals abandon your site without making contact. Every page of your website should feature some form of call-to-action, if not multiple calls-to-action.\n6. Non-Responsive Web Design\nYour website must absolutely, without exception, be mobile-friendly. After all, it\u2019s 2017 and 71% of time online is spent on a mobile device in the US.\nNow, this does not mean that 71% of your traffic will come from mobile devices. It does, however, signify that the way we access and use the internet has changed and is continuing to shift more and more to portable devices. You need to make sure that you can meet your audience where they are.\n7. \u201cCool\u201d But Unnecessary Design Elements\nClosely related to the debate that you may or may not be having with your developer, your designer may be pushing for unusual or \u201ccool\u201d design elements that are unnecessary or even counter-productive to your end goal. Case in point, the seemingly inescapable \u201chome page slider.\u201d\nThe facts are quite simple, 1% of users will click on a slider. Of those, 89% of the clicks will be on the initial slide. Sliders are simply not effective design elements, and yet, designers keep using them, and business owners keep giving them the OK.\nConsider every element that your designer includes in your web design from the perspective of whether it is likely to make it easier for a user to accomplish their goals, and not whether it seems like it would be \u201ccool\u201d to add.\n8. Overwhelming Navigation\nIt is very common for business owners to want to include links to absolutely everything that their business does in as many places as possible. You may have even been tempted to design a large or complex menu or even may have grown a menu that was originally well-sized. Believe it or not, this practice is counter-productive to what you are trying to accomplish.\nGiving your users too many choices can bury the most common, or likely links for which they are searching. Providing too many menu options can also lead to a paralysis of choice, in which the user is so overwhelmed by the number of choices that they feel more comfortable making no choice at all.\n9. Designing a Website That YOU Like\nThe final, and all too common mistake is quite possibly the hardest to avoid. We are all human, and it\u2019s very hard to separate out emotions from the process when working on a project like a web design.\nWe interact with websites daily, and as a result, we form all types of opinions about them. But it\u2019s important to remember that not everyone will use a website in the same way that you do, or shares your preferences.\nDon\u2019t request that your web designer create something, say a website form, a certain way because that\u2019s how you like website forms to look. Instead ask your web designer to design a form that will be most effective at converting website visitors, regardless of whether you like the way it looks or not.\nFinally, test it. Test all of it. Then make a change and test it again. It can be hard to remove our own opinions and feelings about design elements truly, but numbers don\u2019t lie.\nIf you\u2019ve noticed a theme running through this entire post, good. You\u2019ve probably recognized the take-away already. If not, here it is: focus on the user, and the rest will work itself out.\nFocus on what assists the user in building brand recognition, what calls-to-action encourage them to perform the tasks you want them to perform, what content do they want to find, and what their goal is for using your website.\nContact MARION today for access to a team of highly-creative web designers and expert SEO specialists on your next web design project.\nIf you work with a good web design company, a good SEO firm, and a good content marketing company there is no reason why you can\u2019t turn your website into a high-performing leads creation engine.",

        "raw_content": "Ghosn says equity tie-up not part of initial alliance review\nHONG KONG (MarketWatch) - Carlos Ghosn, the chief executive of Nissan Motor Co [s:nsany] and Renault S.A. [s:rnltfm], said Friday the idea of taking up equity stakes in General Motors [s:gm] will be not be discussed during the 90-day review of a possible three-way tie-up, according to reports. The possibility of an equity exchange would be addressed if the review finds sufficient grounds to move forward with additional talks, Ghosn was reported as saying at a press conference in Tokyo. \"We are not making the capital investment inside General Motors as the first element or condition,\" Ghosn said, according to Associated Press reports. The initial review was simply to see if the idea merits a closer look, he said. Ghosn and General Motors Corp. Chief Executive Rick Wagoner have been in talks about a about a possible tie-up among the three automakers since activist billionaire investor Kirk Kerkorian proposed the American automaker, GM, consider joining the Renault-Nissan alliance. The three companies have agreed to a 90-day review of the deal.",

        "title": "Minor Drug Offenses | Huntsville Criminal Lawyers",
        "raw_content": "Minor Drug Offenses & Their Sentences\nAlabama primarily prosecutes three (3) misdemeanor drug offenses: Possession of Marijuana 2nd degree, Possession/Use of Drug Paraphernalia, and Illegal Possession of Prescription Medication. Each of the charges carry up to one year in jail, which may be suspended, and up to 2 years of probation, plus a fine of up to $6,000. However, there are also some significant differences in how these charges are prosecuted and how they can affect your daily life. Below, we have gone into more detail about each of these offenses and the sentences and sanctions you will face if convicted:\nPosssession of Marijuana, 2nd degree\nMarijuana is the only Schedule I substance in Alabama that has the possibility of being prosecuted as a misdemeanor for possession for personal use; possession of any other Schedule I substance, such as cocaine or heroin, cannot be charged with anything less than a felony.\nIf police find you in possession of marijuana, they will make a determination about your intended use of the substance. If law enforcement and a magistrate agree that your possession was for something other than your own personal use, the charge will be a felony 1st degree possession. If they agree that your possession was for your own personal use, then the charge will be misdemeanor 2nd degree possession. See Code of Alabama 1975 \u00a713A-12-213 & 214.\nEven though 2nd degree possession is only a misdemeanor, there are consequences similar to those for felony drug cases. First, if convicted, you will automatically lose your driver\u2019s license privileges for a minimum of six (6) months on your first offense just like other drug cases. You will also likely have to participate in drug screening and rehabilitation through probation, just as you would on a felony drug case.\nThe biggest difference between possession of marijuana 2nd degree charges and the other misdemeanor drug offenses is that future charges of marijuana 2nd degree will automatically be charged as felonies if you have a previous misdemeanor marijuana conviction or guilty plea.\nPossession/Use of Drug Paraphernalia\nDrug paraphernalia can be described simply as any product or device that is used to assist in the consumption of a controlled substance. Examples include pipes, needles, and cigarette/rolling paper. Because this charge is a misdemeanor it still carries the same range of punishment with regards to jail time and probation as marijuana 2nd degree.\nHowever, one key difference between misdemeanor possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia is that your license is not automatically suspended on a paraphernalia conviction. But, the judge can still order that your license be suspended if he or she feels that it is necessary. Additionally, future charges and convictions of drug paraphernalia charges are not automatically prosecuted as felonies if there are prior paraphernalia convictions on your record.\nPossession of Prescription Medication\nPrescription pills are widely used by folks every day in America and most of the time, they are being used legally and safely. However, there are occasions when people use these pills recreationally and without a valid prescription. If you are found in possession of a prescription pill without a valid prescription for the (1) correct substance, and (2) the correct dosage, law enforcement has an option to charge you with either felony possession of a controlled substance, or misdemeanor possession of prescription medication.\nMany times, police will make a felony charge even if you are in possession of one single pill and cannot provide the up-to-date prescription. If you have a valid prescription, but do not have it with your medication when police confront you, simply contact a local attorney to assist with providing that information to the district attorney\u2019s office. At that point, the case is almost always dismissed. Always, always, always, keep your prescription with the medication prescribed to avoid being charged.\nIf you are charged with a felony and you do NOT have a prescription, you will still need an attorney, but may be facing more serious consequences. There is a little-known section of the Alabama Code that makes possession of medication without a valid prescription a misdemeanor (Ala. Code \u00a734-23-7), and on occasion, the prosecutor is willing to amend the felony charge to a misdemeanor. However, those occasions happen only when a small amount of medication is found and the defendant does not have a prior record of drug offenses.\nJust like possession of paraphernalia, a conviction or plea on misdemeanor possession of prescription medication does not come with an automatic suspension of your driver\u2019s license and there is no automatic felony prosecution for multiple offenses, however, the district attorney\u2019s office will almost assuredly make a choice to keep the felony controlled substance charge rather than amending it down to a misdemeanor.\nNo matter whether the offense is a felony or a misdemeanor, drug charges can affect your daily life in significant ways. Do not hesitate to contact our experienced Huntsville criminal defense attorneys to go over your drug related charges as soon as possible so that you can be immediately informed about all of your options.",

        "raw_content": "Our LMTs are awesome. We know it, our clients know it. I can\u2019t count the number of times I\u2019ve heard the words \u201cthat was the best massage of my life,\u201d or \u201cmy body has never felt this good before,\u201d or \u201cI didn\u2019t think my neck, back, whatever would ever have this mobility again\u201d echoing throughout the studio. And then there are the radio silence people, like me. My words fail me -- too blissed out. I actually have to decompress in the waiting area for a significant amount of time because a post-massage crosswalk could be fatal. The therapists at Massage Greenpoint are highly skilled, intuitive, and responsive. It\u2019s no coincidence. Rachel, owner of Massage Greenpoint, hand selects these therapists from hundreds of applicants, because they are the best. But what often goes unseen are their other talents, aspirations, and activities because at work they\u2019re 100% here for their clients -- to give the most kick-ass massages imaginable, to apply all their energy and knowledge, to take care of people. I\u2019m lucky enough to work alongside these masters of massage and get a glimpse at their \u201cother lives.\u201d It\u2019s astounding and inspiring that someone so skilled in one art, could hone such proficiency elsewhere, and in just one lifetime!\nMeet Aaron, an outstanding massage therapist and much, much more ...\n<img src=\"https://static1.squarespace.com/static/57474a73cf80a1ada744e29c/t/5a233ab5f9619ac01bec5e1a/1512258239711/image1.jpg\" alt=\"image1.jpg\" />\nYou\u2019ll know Aaron for his rhythmic and energetic work that launches you into a deeply relaxing state. It\u2019s no surprise he\u2019s also a practicing musician and yogi. He found a way to incorporate all of his lives into his massage work, combining the regulation of breath and rhythmic percussion techniques that have an incredible effect on your mind, body, and SOUL.\n<img src=\"https://static1.squarespace.com/static/57474a73cf80a1ada744e29c/t/5a23423c0d9297cfbf6cd3f6/1512260162251/image3.jpg\" alt=\"image3.jpg\" />\nWhen he\u2019s not working as a massage therapist, he spends most of his time with his daughter. He and his wife work opposite schedules to optimize the family time for her. She\u2019s turning two in March and already showing signs of musical inclination, a family tradition. She\u2019s an amazing little girl, I\u2019ve met her. She\u2019s so special. And she has a great role model - one who has a lot of art to share with her.\n<img src=\"https://static1.squarespace.com/static/57474a73cf80a1ada744e29c/t/5a234382c8302530428f1370/1512260531446/image4.jpg\" alt=\"image4.jpg\" />\nAaron grew up in a very artistic family. His father was a musician, and by the age of four Aaron had already picked up on several instruments, other toys resembling instruments even earlier than that. He\u2019s been an active musician for over 30 years, to the point where everything he does is approached the same way he would with music -- harmony, pitch, and tempo are qualities he adapts to anything he\u2019s doing. Music was what he wanted to do all the time, so he was able to make everything musical in some way. He describes muscle fibers resembling strings, the low strings on a piano or bass guitar. This lifetime passion of his awards him a unique insight on how to work with issues of the body, one that only a truly proficient musician could hone.\nAaron was always interested in massage, and is a long time recipient of massage work himself. As a traveling musician, he was always a little envious of friends who had gone into the medical field, the knowledge they had of the human body. He wanted to be in a position where he could help people in that way, but didn\u2019t necessarily want to be a doctor. As an artist, he was constantly having to take other jobs to fund his craft and it got to a point where the overwhelming need to help others was becoming a prominent driving factor in those choices.\nHe remembers 15 years ago, packed tightly in a van on tour, being that guy everyone asked to dig an elbow into their shoulder or work this kink out. At that point he didn\u2019t know what he was doing so much, but he knew that whatever it was he was helping people feel better, and that felt good. His improvisatory spirit lent itself to the element of problem solving, and he went with it. He felt a shift, a lot of change converging into a next chapter, post artist rat race. Right around that time he got a massage that was a transformative experience. He felt like a new person and wanted to share that with others. The timing was right, and over the years, Aaron has developed an incredibly unique and effective style of massage, one that derives from hard work, insightful touch, and an artistic vantage point.\nDuring our interview, Aaron recalled a special memory: After years of developing as a musician, he reached a point where he was good enough one day to play with his dad. They shared a lot of stage time together, and would practice together all the time. He said \u201cWhen you have an art that can be shared with family or close friends (but family in particular), especially when you learn from them like I did from my dad, interacting with that figure is so fulfilling.\u201d As his daughter is growing, he\u2019s anxious to see how that unfolds with her.\nAs a New York State Licensed Massage Therapist:\nHe has been avidly practicing medical massage since 2015 when he graduated from the Swedish Institute, and is honored to join this ensemble of gifted therapists at Massage Greenpoint. To treat more effectively, he often combines modalities to suit the client's individual needs, drawing from Swedish massage, deep-tissue, myofascial release, trigger-point therapy, and shiatsu. A casual yoga practitioner and a born musician, Aaron embraces a holistic lifestyle and views the art of massage as a natural companion to nutrition, herbology, meditation, and traditional movement practices (such as yoga and qi gong) - a comprehensive view of wellness. With his grounded, calming demeanor, Aaron's work is often described as relaxing, intuitive, and precise.\n<img src=\"https://static1.squarespace.com/static/57474a73cf80a1ada744e29c/t/5a233ad4e4966bbfda33c422/1512260067153/image2.jpg\" alt=\"image2.jpg\" />",

        "raw_content": "A Look at Today\u2019s Massage Therapists\nAccording to an IBIS World Industry Report back in January 2015, they say it is \u201cestimated that there are 300,000 to 350,000 massage therapists and massage school students in the United States.\u201d But just who are these therapists and what are their demographics.\nToday\u2019s Massage Therapist\nThe AMTA or American Massage Therapy Association is the largest non-profit professional group serving massage therapists, massage students and schools. Their purpose is to promote massage to the general public and support research as well as fair state licensing.\nAccording to a 2015 AMTA survey, today\u2019s massage therapist looks like this:\nAlthough 21% of massage therapists were younger than 35 in 2015, the median age for a therapist is 45.\nMost therapists come into this industry as a second career.\nThey are most likely to be sole practitioners. \u2013 67%\nThe majority (86%) are female practitioners.\nThey are averaging about 20 hours a week of actual massages.\nThey are charging an average of $68 for a 1-hour massage.\nThey are earning an average of $47 per hour for all massage-related work\nThe average annual income for a massage therapist is about $24,519 \u2013 this includes tips.\nThey are providing their services in a number of different settings.\nThey depend on repeat clients.\nAgain, according to AMTA surveys about education:\nMassage therapists have an average of 671 hours of initial training.\n93% of massage therapists take continuing education classes.\nThe continuing education consists of 20 hours per year.\nHow Much Are Massage Therapists Being Paid?\nAccording to the Department of Labor Statistics:\nThe median annual wages in 2015 were $38,040. So what does \u201cmedian annual wages\u201d mean?\nIt means that half of the massage therapists earned more that $38,040 and half of them made less. The lowest 10% earned less than $18,860 while the highest 10% made more than $74,860.\nJill I Ursich says:\nOk..I have several questions, I was a Massage Therapist for over 10 yrs..for a Holistic Chiropractor in Redondo Beach, also the same location, where our Massage School was located. I stayed and worked as a student and as a grad student. I then stayed working there as well as 2 different high end spas in the beach area and fill ins for other Chiropractic offices, and had in home massages and did many free lance massage parties. I was constantly reinventing myself, and taking many jobs, as well as additionally studying other forms of energy healing, as in Qi Gong. At the time the CA license was not required within the State of CA.. We had to get licenses in the City we were working in, which became very expensive. I continued to work for the holistic chiropractor, who after 25 yrs in business, shut his doors last year, due to an illness he had been battling.\nSo, I have the experience, the time, the patience, the different Massage styles I have worked with, but apparently I need this NEW CALIF Massage License. How much is the license in Riverside County area, can you use in LA County or is it generalized for the entire State of CA?\nAnother question, where can you find a Massage job and get paid over 7 4,000 a yr as a therapist, unless you are working for a celeb or a Sports Team? Please advise I have worked on many celebrities..thru the beach area job. I look forward to hearing from you. Additionally, the cost of a license is also weighing heavily upon me. Thank you, Jill I Ursich\n\u00ab Massage School Tuition Options\nMassage for the Un-Massageable \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "The 80/20 principle has been published in many forms including a book of that exact title by Richard Koch. The 80/20 rule was derived from the observations of 19th Century Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto, who famously noted that 80% of the land in Italy was held by 20% of the families. Pareto expanded this principle across to other countries and noted that the same rule was roughly followed everywhere and applied to the distribution of power, income, & wealth. James Clear has written a brilliant bio on the Pareto narrative.\nToday this ratio is often used to explain the difference between the \u2018Haves\u2019 and the \u2018Have Nots\u2019. It defines the difference between being efficient (someone who is across everything) and effective (someone who focuses on the right thing), and is used in account management to differentiate Category A, B & C clients. The same segmentation principle is the key to managing high levels of service or advice, to a small number of people, and prioritising the effective 20% above everything else.\nThe 80/20 principle defines the difference between being efficient and effective.\nIn the book The One Thing, Gary Keller asks a basic yet clarifying question: \u2018What is the one thing that if you did it today, would make doing everything else redundant or unnecessary?\u2019 Aligned with this ruthless focus, modern productivity practices support the idea that there is always a single piece of work each day that has to be done. So what if you did that first, and didn\u2019t attempt anything else until it was done? Would you need to do the other stuff?\nThere is always a single piece of work each day that has to be done.\nI believe I can process 20 tasks a day. If I\u2019m ferocious about one task each day, this 5% will have the greatest leverage.\nI challenge you to find out what your one thing is each day, and at the same time get clear on the 5 things which you do that no one else can. In my world it\u2019s Thinking, Writing, Presenting, Aligning value & Mentoring. I can run a team meeting (not sure I should); I can review the finances (not sure I could); & I can fill out a form (not sure I would). Of course this doesn\u2019t mean that team meetings, spreadsheets and signing documents don\u2019t get done. Just not by me.\nIn a normal life there are tasks that must get done due to responsibilities or because you haven\u2019t put those tasks into a system or procedure where they\u2019re completed by someone else. It may be washing your car, cooking your meals, cleaning your house, booking your travel, paying bills. Doing the ordinary tasks is fine \u2013 until they stop you from doing the extraordinary stuff.\nI challenge you to find out what your one thing is each day.\nExtraordinary results require a ferocious commitment to the few things that only you can do. Does a surgeon order gauze, clean instruments or administer anaesthetic?\nMaybe you need to give yourself permission to rewrite the rules of expectation and redefine what exactly your work is. As more and more \u2018tasks\u2019 are outsourced (to cheaper labour), automated (to systems and software) or possessed (taken over by deep learning networks), I think we need more focus on what our purpose should be, attack the 5% as a priority, and explore where that can take us.\nDoing the ordinary tasks is fine \u2013 until they stop you from doing the extraordinary stuff.\nIs it arrogant, indulgent or selfish to outsource the normal? I\u2019d say YES! But it\u2019s also essential to find out what we\u2019re capable of. Athletes and adventurers are some of the most selfish people on the planet. They\u2019ve needed to be, to reach the heights that they have. The reason the Renaissance period is famously filled with masterpieces is because the Medici family provided all artists with their food, clothing, shelter and materials. This allowed the artists to focus on what they did best and paint chapels, sculpt marble and carve statues.\nGeorge Bernard Shaw said it best when he stated:\n\u2018The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.'\nAthletes and adventurers are some of the most selfish people on the planet. They\u2019ve needed to be, to reach the heights that they have.\nSometimes I choose to wash my own car. My son joins me, my dog chases the hose, and I get some sun on my back. And sometimes I pay someone else to wash the car so I can do something else with my time. It\u2019s not about being better than a task at hand. It is about being intentional.\nLive a life by design, not default. Find the path travelled best by you and walk that often. Establish what you do, that others can't, won't or don't; and spend more time in that space.\nBe focused on the 20% and then be ferocious about the 5%.",

        "title": "Top Tips to Create a Compliance Plan for Your Medical Office | MedAssure Services",
        "raw_content": "December 26, 2016 / Daniel Roberts / 0Comments\nCompliance in a medical setting is essential. This can include everything from compliance regarding the disposal of medical waste, to HIPAA standards. Even small, family practices with one or two care providers need to have an in-depth standardized compliance in place, not only to avoid potential regulatory issues but also to keep employees and patients safe and well-cared for.\nIt\u2019s also important for most medical offices to ensure they have rigorous compliance plans in place in order to participate in programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.\nThe following are some tips and guidelines to keep in mind to create a clear, concrete compliance plan in a medical office or setting of any size.\nSelect a Compliance Officer\nOne of the biggest reasons medical practices fail regarding full compliance is because they don\u2019t appoint someone as a compliance officer.\nIt\u2019s important to designate one person to fill this role, because they\u2019ll be able to organize compliance-related issues and actions, and other employees will have a point person to go to if they have questions or concerns.\nWhen selecting a compliance officer, it\u2019s a good idea to choose someone such as a nurse or office manager, and then provide them with in-depth training.\nResponsibilities of a compliance officer include not only developing but also implementing the entirety of a compliance program.\nThe ideal candidate is someone who has knowledge not only of the clinical elements of the practice but also some level of understanding of the business and billing processes.\nCreate Written Standards\nYour compliance plan needs to be as specific, well-documented and standardized as possible. To achieve this, having written guidelines and manuals is important. This provides an easy source for training new employees, and printed materials can also be used as a reference by existing employees.\nThese written standards should be regularly reviewed to ensure they continue to meet the needs of your practice.\nTrain Employees and Keep Records\nAlong with outlining the standards and procedures required in the practice, training employees and keeping detailed records of this training is one of the most important elements of a successful compliance plan.\nChoose a method of training that works best for your organization. Many medical practices will contract with their medical waste services provider for compliance training, or they might combine third-party training with some level of self-paced learning or e-Learning.\nDefine How Non-Compliance Is Handled\nJust as a compliance plan should include detailed information about how employees can remain compliant and address the specific risks of the medical practice, there should also be details included regarding how non-compliance is handled.\nA good compliance plan will outline standards for how issues will be reported and then subsequently treated. For example, will disciplinary action be taken? Will there be retraining to deal with noncompliance? What will the investigation look like if something is reported?\nHaving a compliance plan in place is necessary for all medical practices, as a means to define employee behaviors as well as how potential issues will be tackled if they should arise.",

        "raw_content": "4 American Cities With European Vibes\nSometimes, you just want to pack your bags and wake up in a country that eats mostly bread for breakfast\u2014but likely, time and money are keeping you from living this dream. Well, luckily for you, there are ways to get a taste of Europe right here at home\u2014no hopping the pond required. Better yet, some of these towns are among the best places to retire, meaning if you like them, you might just want to stay forever.\nHave you ever wanted to go to Oktoberfest? Well then, you\u2019re in luck, because Leavenworth, WA\u2014a scenic two-hour drive from Seattle\u2014throws its own every year. Funnily enough, Leavenworth didn\u2019t exactly start out this way\u2014it was an idea that came to fruition in the 60s, when the town was struggling financially and decided to lure in tourists\u2014but the results are so convincing, it\u2019s impossible to dislike. Leavenworth is a little slice of Bavaria, complete with gorgeous German architecture framed by the snowy Cascade Mountains. And if beer isn\u2019t your thing, Christmas is a magical time to visit special holiday-themed shops and eateries.\nSanta Barbara is often referred to as the American Riviera, and for a good reason. The area has been populated since about 13,000 years ago with the first Native Americans, but when the Spanish arrived in the 1700s, they occupied the area in order to spread Christianity. Their influence is still heavily apparent, as a myriad of Spanish Mission-style houses spread among the rolling green hills between the Ynez Mountains and the brilliant blue Pacific Ocean. It\u2019s no wonder Santa Barbara is the best city to retire in!\nThis one is perhaps a bit of a no-brainer\u2014the French Quarter and beignets are probably a bit of a give-away. This is because NOLA was founded by French colonists, and later become part of the Spanish Empire, meaning its architecture is a blend of French wrought iron balconies and Spanish cottages. The people of Louisiana reflect this international heritage, with the Louisiana Creole people being of Spanish, French, and/or Afro-Caribbean descent, and Cajuns being descended from French exiles from Canada.\nIf you\u2019ve ever dreamed of visiting the Netherlands, then look no further than the Midwest. Pella is filled with Dutch-style architecture, right down to its very own windmill, Vermeer Mill, which is the largest structure of its style in the U.S. Lodgings include the Royal Amsterdam Hotel, which you can book for May so you can enjoy their famous Tulip Time Festival\u2014because a Dutch town would not be complete without tulips. Locals celebrate their heritage with Dutch attire, parades, food, dancing, and (surprise!) tulips.\nIn short, just because you can\u2019t leave America doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t get a taste of Europe. Our country is the Great American Melting Pot, after all, and although it\u2019s not always evident, our roots can be found in special places on our own turf. So there\u2019s no time like the present to go out and explore your own backyard!\nInteresting post. Done the Oktoberfest and Germany, also done France, Spain and the Netherlands. This year though we get to try the USA for the first time when we visit 4 different families, all of who used to live in Rhodesia or South Africa. Something quite different for us. Lots planned and much to see in four weeks. Keep well Diane",

        "raw_content": "Metal Detecting In Oklahoma?\nMetal detecting in Oklahoma follows the Antiquities Act of 1906.\nThe link below provides an explanation of that law, and some of the problems people face who break it.\nBe sure and read through that entire page, as well at the links to other pages I have provided.\nEven though the Antiquities Act does not specifically mention \"metal detecting\", you need to understand what that law says about digging artifacts.\nBelow is a synopsis of another Oklahoma law, the \"Archaeological Resources Preservation Act\" (ARPA).\nOklahoma Antiquities Law - Oklahoma Statute Chapter 20 (Section 361):\nThe state legislature passed this law in 1985 to protect archeological sites on state-owned land. Site excavations on state land must be done by trained researchers who have been issued a permit from the State Archeologist, Oklahoma Archeological Survey, Norman. A provision in the law can help landowners protect their archeological sites against unauthorized relic digging.\nAll artifacts recovered from excavations on state lands must be deposited in an Oklahoma museum or repository. The policy of the State Archeologist. the State Historic Preservation Officer, and the Oklahoma Museum of Natural History is to make archeological materials available to qualified researchers for study and to responsible museums for display. Violators of the provisions of this law are guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, may be fined up to $500 and/or be imprisoned up to 30 days in the county jail.\nThe Burial Desecration Law - Oklahoma Statute Chapter 47 (Section 1168.0 - 1168.6):\nPassed in 1987, this law extends protection to human remains and associated burial goods in unmarked graves on both state and privately owned land. In essence, it is illegal knowingly to disturb, buy, sell, or barter human skeletal remains or associated items from unmarked graves. Also, these items may not be displayed for profit or in any commercial enterprise. People who encounter or discover unmarked graves and their contents should stop any further disturbance activities and report the find to an appropriate law enforcement officer in the county where the remains are found.\nViolators of this law may be guilty of either a misdemeanor or a felony. For a misdemeanor conviction, violators may be fined up to $500 and/or be imprisoned up to six months in the county jail. A felony conviction could result in a $1000 fine with up to two years imprisonment in the state penitentiary.\nMore information with stories.\nTo make metal detecting in Oklahoma even more difficult you need to be aware of another law, The National Historic Preservation Act - NHPA.\nIf you are metal detecting in Oklahoma, especially on State Land,\nFor metal detecting in Oklahoma, town, village and city parks, you'll need to check with those local officials.\nMy Metal Detecting TV Series Get's The Archaeologists Short's All Bunched Up\nFind out what all of the fuss was about.\nHave you been metal detecting in Oklahoma ghost towns?\nRemember, be careful, and do not break any of these laws.",

        "raw_content": "How much Palestinian land do Israeli settlements really eat up?\nAugust 4, 2016 at 9:48 am\t| Published in: Article, Debates, Israel, Middle East, Opinion, Palestine\nA banner seen during a protest with international activists near the illegal Israeli settlement of Karmi Tzor [file photo]\n@benabyad\nThe Israeli government and its supporters routinely play down the significance of West Bank settlements as an obstacle to peace with the Palestinians. One recent example of this came from a Jewish Agency spokesperson, who tweeted: \u201cJewish communities in the West Bank take up under 2% of the land; that is, over 98% of the West Bank contains no Jewish residents at all.\u201d\nSo is this true \u2013 and exactly how much of the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) do Israel\u2019s settlements take up?\n1. What the 2 percent figure omits.\nThose who cite the 2 percent figure rarely clarify that this refers purely to the built-up area of the settlements. As described in a Human Rights Watch report earlier this year, while \u201cthe built-up area of residential settlements covers 6,000 hectares\u201d, there are also \u201capproximately 20 Israeli-administered industrial zones in the West Bank covering about 1,365 hectares, and Israeli settlers oversee the cultivation of 9,300 hectares of agricultural land.\u201d\n2. The settlements\u2019 local authorities.\nSettlement areas in the West Bank, including local and regional councils marked in grey (UN OCHA, 2009)\nThe 2 percent figure also obscures a perhaps more significant reality. 23 Jewish local authorities operate in the West Bank: \u201cthree municipalities, fourteen local councils and six regional councils.\u201d According to a 2009 United Nations report, 39 percent of the West Bank falls under these authorities\u2019 jurisdiction. Israel has \u201cconsistently refused to allocate such land for Palestinian use.\u201d\nAs an example, the report describes how \u201calmost all of the [Jordan Valley and Dead Sea] area falls under the jurisdiction of two [settler] Regional Councils\u201d \u2013 the \u201cpractical implication\u201d of which \u201cis that, in almost the entirety of the Jordan Valley, Palestinian construction is prohibited.\u201d\nIsraeli NGO B\u2019Tselem, meanwhile, describing how Palestinians are prevented from using land in \u2018Area C\u2019 (around 60 percent of the West Bank), states that settlements and their regional councils constitute 36.6 percent of the West Bank as a whole.\nFurthermore, \u201cthe areas of jurisdiction of the Jewish local authorities, most of which extend far beyond the built-up area, are defined as \u2018closed military zones\u2019\u2026[and] Palestinians are forbidden to enter these areas without authorization from the Israeli military commander.\u201d\nBeitar Illit settlement: built-up area versus municipal area (B\u2019Tselem, 2010)\n3. A little land goes a long way.\nThe amount of land taken up settlements \u2013 as well as their accompanying infrastructure \u2013 is not just a matter of square hectares; it is possible to colonise key natural resources, and control and fragment occupied territory, by settling a proportionally small amount of land.\nAs Neve Gordon has explained, when you look at the map, one can \u201cappreciate how even a small percentage of confiscated land can be used to slice the West Bank into several parts.\u201d For example, \u201cwhile the area of jurisdiction of Ma\u2019ale Adumim occupies just 0.8 percent of the West Bank, it nonetheless succeeds in slicing the West Bank into two parts that are almost completely separated.\u201d\n4. All settlements are illegal under international law.\nThere is, of course, a fundamental point missed by a debate over percentages. Every single one of the more than 200 Israeli settlements in the OPT \u2013 some \u2018official\u2019, others \u2018unofficial\u2019 \u2013 are illegal under international law. This is a view shared by, among others, the United Nations (including in both Security Council and General Assembly resolutions), and the International Court of Justice.\nThe Israeli government itself was given legal advice in 1967 that civilian colonies in the OPT would be a violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention \u2013 but proceeded nonetheless. And every single Israeli prime minister since has maintained, consolidated, and expanded, these illegal settlements.\n5. Settlements are inherently discriminatory.\nIsrael\u2019s colonies are not just a violation of international law; they are at the heart of a regime of segregation and legalised inequality. In the words of Amnesty International, the settlement policy is \u201cinherently discriminatory\u201d and \u201cperpetuates violations against Palestinians\u201d such as \u201cinfringing their rights to adequate housing, water and livelihoods.\u201d\nThis is a daily reality long attested to by Palestinians, as well as by Israeli groups, diplomats, and global human rights NGOs. Thus, regardless of their relative size, or even their future fate in a peace deal, Israel\u2019s settlements in the West Bank, today, constitute a grave, systematic violation of international law and human rights. They are part of an apartheid system.\nArticleDebatesIsraelMiddle EastOpinionPalestine",

        "raw_content": "HomeRecruitment GuideHiring Tips for EmployersHealthcare Hiring Process\nHealthcare Hiring Process\nHow to Better Your Healthcare Hiring Process\nGiven it\u2019s standing as the finest healthcare system in world, it\u2019s little wonder that so many people want to be a part of the medical industry in the U.S. Few other occupations offer as many opportunities to work with and amongst the members of one\u2019s community. However, those who enter this field should do so knowing that the challenges may be many and the stress level associated with the clinical environment is often high. The same may also be said for your position as a healthcare administrator. You\u2019re tasked with ensuring that the clinicians that you hire have the requisite skills needed to adequately serve your particular patient population, along with the personality needed to help people in distress feel at ease. Thus, for you, the need for an effective healthcare hiring process couldn\u2019t be greater.\nWhy the Healthcare Hiring Process is Unique\nThose who work within the medical industry know full well just how unique the healthcare hiring process is. Before their own experiences show them otherwise, many patients enter a caregiving scenario with a Nurse Ratchet-like perception of healthcare workers. Some may argue that in the state that they\u2019re in, patients are in no position to complain about the bedside manner of the nurses and technicians that assist them. Yet the truth is that much of a clinical support staff\u2019s job involves ensuring that patients are at ease both mentally and emotionally before even addressing any physical ailments.\nAt the same time, a clinician\u2019s skills have to go beyond being able to help patients feel the proverbial \u00ef\u0093warm fuzzy.\u00ef\u0094 Thus, the aim of the healthcare hiring process must be to find candidates that not only bring the right skills to the table, but that also possess the personality that fits the clinical culture. There are many that will tell you that it\u2019s impossible to make the right hire every time. However, if you have a consistent hiring process in place, you may easily be able to prove that theory wrong.\nEffective Healthcare Hiring Practices\nConsider these steps when looking to improve your healthcare hiring process:\n-Focusing on developing sourcing: If yours happens to be a teaching hospital or healthcare facility, then you already may have a reliable source of potential job applicants in place. Candidates coming from this applicant pool will already bring with them a working knowledge of your policies and procedures, and may have already developed good relationships with other clinicians on staff. If you don\u2019t have any official academic affiliations, consider developing them with local trade schools or nursing programs.\n-Keep culture in mind: It\u2019s easy to want to immediately accept a candidate with the right skills to fill your position. After all, he or she would meet an immediate need. However, you must also consider the long-term effect of each of your new hires. Building and maintaining positive working relationships amongst your staff members plays a vital role in delivering good patient care. Thus, non-technical skills, such as being a good communicator, working well with others, and having a friendly personality are factors that should be considered during the healthcare hiring process.\n-Keep qualified applicants in mind: In many cases, an applicant may not be the ideal candidate for your current position. However, you may have felt that he or she would fit very well into your organization\u2019s unique culture. Don\u2019t allow such candidates to slip away from you. Keep a copy of his or her resume on hand, and contact him or her when new positions open up.\n-Place an emphasis on tech-savvy candidates: The guidelines regulating the healthcare industry are constantly changing. Many of them focus on updating current patient tracking and reporting practices to accommodate new technologies. Recent years have seen an emphasis placed on storing all patient information on electronic medical records. Anyone that you bring on will have to have the skills needed to learn the programs through which that data is accessed. Those who already have acquired tech skills will be much easier to train on such systems.\n-Make retention a priority: Many don\u2019t consider retention to be a part of the healthcare hiring process. However, what good is your process if you\u2019re unable to retain the good employees that it yields Encourage executives within your organization to offer sufficient benefits to ensure that those that you bring on have every reason to stay.\nGiven all that\u2019s riding on your choice of candidates to fill the clinical positions at your facility, it\u2019s vital that you have a sound healthcare hiring process in place to identify the right candidates for the right positions. While such a task may seem daunting, it needn\u2019t be if you have the right tools and resources supporting you. You\u2019ll quickly find that Mighty Recruiter can offer you those.",

        "title": "Trade Compliance Flash: U.S. Government to Reimpose Sanctions on Iran Following Withdrawal from Nuclear Deal | Miller & Chevalier",
        "raw_content": "Trade Compliance Flash: U.S. Government to Reimpose Sanctions on Iran Following Withdrawal from Nuclear Deal\nOn May 8, 2018, President Trump announced the U.S. withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and issued a Presidential Memorandum ordering the U.S. government to begin the process of reimposing all sanctions against Iran that had been suspended since implementation of the JCPOA on January 16, 2016 (Implementation Day). Though no new or previously lifted sanctions became effective concurrently with the president's announcement, guidance issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) makes clear that sanctions will be reactivated, and licenses issued on or after Implementation Day revoked, on or before August 7 or November 5, 2018 (depending upon the length of the applicable \"wind down period\").\nEntities that took advantage of the lifted sanctions and do not take steps to wind down activities prohibited by the reactivated sanctions will run the risk of exposure to sanctions or enforcement actions. It is unclear, however, how vigorously the United States will enforce secondary sanctions against non-U.S. persons who continue to engage in prohibited business with Iran following the wind down periods. Historically, secondary sanctions regimes have led non-U.S. entities to modify their behavior without the U.S. government exercising its rights to impose secondary sanctions on individual parties. The potential for non-U.S. governments to implement blocking statutes which prohibit their citizens from complying with the U.S. sanctions may also complicate matters. Given the open questions of the international response to the withdrawal, as well as the potential for conflicts between U.S. and foreign laws, both U.S. and non-U.S. entities seeking to respond to the reactivation of the U.S. sanctions on Iran will benefit from closely following any applicable U.S. and foreign government guidance during the wind down periods leading up to the reactivation dates.\nJCPOA Sanctions Relief Affected by the May 8 Announcement\nThe sanctions lifted on Implementation Day \u2013 and now soon to be reimposed as a result of the May 8 announcement \u2013 included both \"primary\" and \"secondary\" sanctions administered by OFAC and the U.S. Department of State.\nPrimary sanctions relief (which allowed U.S. persons to participate in certain previously prohibited activities) took the form of general licenses allowing transactions relating to Iranian-origin foodstuffs and carpets, including certain related financing and brokering transactions; certain transactions related to contingent contracts for the export, re-export, sale, lease, or transfer to Iran of commercial passenger aircraft and parts and components for exclusively civil aviation end-use, as well as associated services (General License I); and certain transactions involving U.S. owned or controlled foreign entities (General License H), as well as a favorable licensing policy related to commercial passenger aircraft transactions.\nSecondary sanctions relief included waiver of various sanctions targeting non-U.S. persons engaged in transactions related to the Iranian energy, petrochemical, shipping, shipbuilding, port services, automotive and financial, banking and insurance sectors, as well as sanctions related to trade in gold, precious metals and certain raw or semi-finished metals, and software. The secondary sanctions relief also included transfer of over 400 individuals, entities, and vessels from the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List), the List of Foreign Sanctions Evaders and/or the Non-SDN Iran Sanctions Act List and creation of the \"List of Persons Identified as Blocked Solely Pursuant to Executive Order 13599 (the \"13599 List\").\nImmediate Consequences of the May 8 Announcement\nOn the primary sanctions front, OFAC immediately terminated its Statement of Licensing Policy (SLP) for Activities Related to the Export or Re-export to Iran of Commercial Passenger Aircraft and Related Parts and Services. No new license applications will be accepted under this policy and all pending applications will be returned without action (although OFAC will continue to consider applications under the safety of flight statement of licensing policy found in 31 C.F.R. \u00a7 560.528). Termination of all other primary sanctions relief will be subject to wind down periods, as discussed below.\nOn the secondary sanctions front, all waivers of secondary sanctions issued on or after Implementation Day were revoked and replaced with waivers to provide for the applicable wind down periods, as discussed below.\nSanctions Relief Scheduled to End by August 6, 2018\nPrimary sanctions to be reimposed following a 90-day wind down period ending on August 6, 2018 will result from revocation of the following general and specific licenses:\nThe general license authorizing importation of Iranian-origin carpets and foodstuffs into the United States and related financial transactions (which will be removed from 31 C.F.R. part 560);\nSpecific licenses issued under the now revoked SLP; and\nGeneral License I.\n\"As soon as administratively feasible,\" OFAC intends to replace the affected general licenses with a more narrowly scoped authorization restricted to the winding down of activities previously undertaken under the general licenses. Wind down activities and receipt of payments under contracts or agreements entered into prior to May 8 must be completed by the end of the wind down period.\nSecondary sanctions to be reimposed after a 90-day wind down period ending on August 6, 2018 are sanctions on the following activities and associated services:\nAcquisition of U.S. dollars by the government of Iran;\nIran's trade in precious metals;\nDirect or indirect sale, supply, or transfer to or from Iran of graphite, raw or semi-finished metals such as aluminum and steel, coal, and software for integrating industrial processes;\nPurchase, subscription to, or facilitation of the issuance of Iranian sovereign debt; and\nCertain activities involving Iran's automotive sector.\nTo the extent necessary, reimposition of these secondary sanctions will involve reinstating provisions of executive orders that were revoked on Implementation Day. OFAC guidance makes it clear that receipt of payments or repayment of loans or credits by non-U.S., non-Iranian persons under contracts entered into prior to May 8, 2018 after the expiration of the wind down period will not attract sanctions so long as neither U.S. persons nor the U.S. financial system are involved.\nSanctions Relief Scheduled to End by November 4, 2018\nPrimary sanctions to be reimposed following a 180-day wind down period ending on November 4, 2018 will result from revocation of General License H. \"As soon as administratively feasible,\" OFAC intends to replace General License H with a more narrowly scoped authorization restricted to winding down activities previously undertaken under the General License. Wind down activities and receipt of payments under contracts or agreements entered into prior to May 8 must be completed by the end of the wind down period. As a result of these actions, U.S. owned or controlled foreign entities again will be subject to the comprehensive U.S. embargo on trade with Iran.\nSecondary sanctions to be reimposed after a 180-day wind down period ending on November 4, 2018 are the following sanctions and associated services:\nSanctions on Iran's port operators and shipping and shipbuilding sectors, including on the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL), South Shipping Line Iran, or their affiliates;\nSanctions on petroleum-related transactions with, among others, the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC), Naftiran Intertrade Company (NICO), and National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC), including the purchase of petroleum, petroleum products, or petrochemical products from Iran;\nSanctions on transactions by foreign financial institutions with the Central Bank of Iran and designated Iranian financial institutions under Section 1245 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (NDAA);\nSanctions on the provision of specialized financial messaging services to the Central Bank of Iran and Iranian financial institutions described in Section 104(c)(2)(E)(ii) of the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions and Divestment Act of 2010 (CISADA);\nSanctions on Iran's energy sector.\nIn addition, as appropriate, secondary sanctions for activities involving persons and vessels previously removed from the SDN List and other U.S. government lists on Implementation Day will be reinstated. This will include transfer of persons meeting the definitions of \"Government of Iran\" or \"Iranian financial institution\" from the 13599 List to the SDN List, no later than November 5, 2018.\nFinally, the OFAC guidance states that, following the 180-day wind down period, the State Department will evaluate requests from countries for exceptions from the NDAA sanctions. The guidance makes clear that \"the State Department intends to consider relevant evidence in assessing each country's efforts to reduce the volume of crude oil imported from Iran during the 180-day wind down period, including the quantity and percentage of the reduction in purchase of Iranian crude oil, the termination of contracts for future delivery of Iranian crude oil, and other actions that demonstrate a commitment to decrease substantially such purchases.\" The guidance also indicates that the State Department expects to engage in consultations with countries currently purchasing Iranian crude oil during the wind down period.\nCompliance and Risk Management Implications\nThe OFAC guidance encourages both U.S. and non-U.S. persons engaging in transactions that will be affected by the reimposition of sanctions to begin taking the steps necessary to wind down such transactions within the applicable wind down periods. Although the guidance stops short of prohibiting new activity under the existing general licenses or waivers, the guidance does state that when considering a potential enforcement action in connection with activities engaged in following the applicable wind down period, OFAC intends to \"evaluate efforts and steps taken to wind down activities and will assess whether any new business was entered into involving Iran during the applicable wind-down period.\"\nOFAC also signaled its intent to continue to aggressively target persons who engage in any sanctionable activity, regardless of whether the activity was the subject of Implementation Day relief \u2013 including activities related to Iran's support for terrorism, its ballistic missile program, human rights abuses, and destabilizing activity in the Middle East. To this end, the OFAC guidance included a recommendation that any person conducting wind down activities conduct due diligence \"sufficient to ensure that it is not knowingly engaging in transactions with persons on the SDN List or in activities that would be sanctionable under authorities targeting Iran's malign activities.\"\nPolitical Uncertainty will have a Significant Impact on Non-U.S. Persons\nThough the May 8 developments have established the expectation that non-U.S. persons may face secondary sanctions, the reaction of European nations and other foreign governments suggests that there is potential for future conflict with these competing legal regimes and their respective policy makers. In a joint statement issued by the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, the leaders of those nations emphasized their continuing commitment to the JCPOA and urged the United States \"to ensure that the structures of the JCPOA can remain intact, and to avoid taking action which obstructs its full implementation by all other parties to the deal.\" The leaders similarly urged Iran to \"show restraint\" in response to the U.S. withdrawal and emphasized that \"Iran should continue to receive the sanctions relief it is entitled to whilst it remains in compliance with the terms of the deal.\" In this context, it will be critical to observe the reaction from the other signatories to the JCPOA (the P5+1) and the international community more broadly. European, Middle Eastern, and Asian nations whose domestic companies have taken advantage of the terms of the JCPOA to re-enter the Iranian market may decide to enforce blocking statutes and regulations which could prevent their own companies from complying with the terms of the reactivated U.S. sanctions. If non-U.S. persons operating in these countries are faced with the choice between adhering to their own domestic laws and those of the United States, they may face difficult decisions regarding which laws present the greater risks and which laws they will ultimately choose to follow.",

        "raw_content": "Koch's stellar run ends as Crew breaks out\nDescalso's homer accounts for D-backs' only 2 runs as offensive funk lingers\nPHOENIX -- Matt Koch has excelled in place of Taijuan Walker, who is out for the season because of Tommy John surgery. He's given the D-backs more than they could have expected. Prior to Wednesday, he'd faced Clayton Kershaw, Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer in consecutive starts, and held his own in all three outings.\nBut in an 8-2 loss to the Brewers, the right-hander logged the worst start of his young big league career.\n\"I don't think anything was really working for him today,\" D-backs manager Torey Lovullo said.\nIn just his eighth Major League start, Koch (2-2) allowed eight earned runs on nine hits over 4 1/3 innings. He walked a batter and didn't have any strikeouts. Before this start, the most earned runs he'd given up in an outing this season was three.\n\"I just wasn't making pitches when I needed to, and when I made good pitches, they were still in the count,\" Koch said. \"When I made a bad one, they made it hurt.\"\nThat was evident as the Brewers tagged Koch for a season-high four homers. Travis Shaw and Domingo Santana went back to back in the first inning to give Milwaukee a 3-0 lead. In the second inning, Christian Yelich blasted a two-run home run, and Tyler Saladino led off the fourth with a solo homer off the batter's eye in center field.\nKoch, who is 27 years old and still inexperienced as a big leaguer -- he's made 15 appearances since 2016 -- markets himself as a pitcher who goes for weak contact and lets the defense work behind him.\n\"When you give up four homers, the defense can't really help you on those,\" Koch said.\nVideo: MIL@ARI: Koch gets flyout, D-backs turn double play\nThe Brewers led, 6-2, when Koch exited the game. Milwaukee added two runs in the fifth that were also credited to Koch.\nMeanwhile, the D-backs' only runs came on a Daniel Descalso two-run home run in the first inning. The team had four hits. Lovullo called Wednesday's loss \"a dud\" and \"a little bit of a clunker.\"\nKoch said he's the type of player who will be able to flush a bad performance like this. But he's not the only D-back who will need to do so. Arizona has now lost seven of eight. The club is headed on a three-city road trip that includes New York (Mets), Milwaukee and Oakland.\nVideo: MIL@ARI: Descalso drills 2-run homer to right field\nFor the D-backs, breaking out of the funk is a matter of when, not if.\n\"It's no secret that we're struggling,\" Descalso said. \"There's no sense in shying away from it. Maybe we need to talk about it more, maybe there's some things we can say to help out a teammate or something. But we're going to figure it out. It's not like we're going to be like this for the rest of the season.\"\nVideo: MIL@ARI: Ahmed speeds into third for stand-up triple\nThe D-backs were only down 5-2 in the third inning when Jarrod Dyson drew a one-out walk and stole second base with two outs. They could have cut into the lead, but Paul Goldschmidt flied out to end the inning. It followed a recent trend; the D-backs have struggled to string together hits and put runs on the board.\nThe Brewers' Brandon Woodruff took the mound on Wednesday, marking the end of a unique streak for Koch. In his three starts prior to Wednesday, Koch went up against Kershaw, Verlander and Scherzer. He became the first starting pitcher to face three different Cy Young Award winners in a row. When he dueled with Kershaw and Verlander, he became the first pitcher to go against different MVP winners in consecutive starts since the White Sox's Ed Lopat in 1947.\n\"We'll be all right. We've got a group of guys in here, veterans, that have been through this before. No one's panicking. We're going to be OK.\"-- Koch\n\"Offensively, we just can't get clicking. There's no mystery to it. I'm not going to sugarcoat it.\" -- Lovullo\nVideo: MIL@ARI: Lovullo talks offensive struggles after loss\nThe D-backs have an off-day on Thursday before beginning a three-game series in New York against the Mets on Friday. Zack Godley (4-2, 4.08 ERA) will toe the rubber opposite Jacob deGrom (3-0, 1.83), who threw a 45-pitch scoreless first inning before being pulled in his first game back from a disabled list stint (hyperextended right elbow). The series opener at Citi Field will begin at 7:10 p.m. ET.\nJustin Toscano is a reporter for MLB.com based in Phoenix.\nRead more: Arizona Diamondbacks, Matt Koch",

        "raw_content": "Home > Gamblers Faq > Legislation In New Zealand\nLegislation of Gambling in New Zealand FAQ\u2019s\nNew Zealand has a long tradition of gambling, whether it be lottery, sports betting or casino game play. While most players are fairly sure of the gambling legislation, not everyone knows how this affects online gambling. Some people think that online gambling is illegal, while others have been playing for a number of years. The law may seem confusing and needs a bit of clarity. For this reason, we have created a comprehensive FAQ list, which should answer all the most relevant questions.\nIs it legal to Gamble in New Zealand?\nGambling is legal in New Zealand and is strictly controlled by the Department of Internal Affairs. In 2003, the Gambling Act was implemented which allows only certain types of gambling in the country. The new law was focused on ensuring the community benefits from the proceeds of gambling activities\nWhat Types of Gambling Activities are Legal?\nLand-based casinos, state-run lotteries, bingo and instant games (scratch cards) are all mentioned in the Gambling Act as legal forms of gambling in New Zealand.\nWhat About Sports Betting?\nFrom 1920 to 1961, bookmaking was deemed illegal. Since the implementation of the Totalizator Agency Board (TAB), bookmaking and sports betting is legal in the country and exempt from the Gambling Act.\nWhat Casinos are available in New Zealand?\nThe number of land-based casinos are strictly regulated in New Zealand. To date, there are only six casinos throughout the country. These include:\nAccording to the 2003 Gambling Act, remote interactive gambling is forbidden. However, this doesn\u2019t mean that players cannot gamble online. First off, there are two exemptions for the Lotteries Commission and the Racing Board. This means that it is legal to play the lottery online and to place racing bets online.\nIn terms of casino gambling, online casinos operating within the borders of New Zealand are illegal. Gambling at local New Zealand online casinos are not allowed but gambling at overseas casinos are allowed.\nCan I play at Foreign Casinos?\nYes, according to New Zealand law, it is perfectly legal to play at foreign based online casinos, as long as the casino does not operate inside the borders of the country.\nCan I Gamble Using New Zealand Dollars?\nThere are plenty of online casinos that accept New Zealand Dollars even if they are not locally based. It is recommended that players look for casinos that offer local currency as this eliminates the need to pay conversion fees.\nAre There Risks in Playing at Offshore Casinos?\nThere are always technically risks involved when gambling online. For local players, it is important to look for an online casino that is fully licenced and accepts players from New Zealand. Before signing up, always read which countries are prohibited and where the casino is licenced.\nTo eliminate risk, it is best to sign up with casinos that have a proven track record. These are casinos that have been around for a while and have a solid customer bases. It is also a good idea to read the casino reviews before signing up.",

        "raw_content": "The Fruit of the Spirit by R. C. Sproul\nGod sealed you by giving you\nThe gift of his Holy Spirit.\nEvery child of God bears the same seal,\nIs indwelt by the same Holy Spirit.\n- Tom Rees\nThe Gifts of the Holy Spirit are fascinating and exciting. To be a gifted person is to receive accolades from our fellows for our performances or abilities. For these reasons and perhaps others, the gifts of the Spirit receive far more attention in our culture than the fruit of the Spirit. The fruits of the Spirit seem to be doomed to obscurity, hidden in the shadow of the more preferred gifts.\nYet it is the evidence of the fruit of the Spirit that is the mark of our progress in sanctification. Of course, God is pleased when we dutifully exercise the gifts the Holy Spirit has bestowed upon us. But I think God is even more pleased when He sees His people manifest the fruit of the Spirit.\nPaul exhorts the Galatians:\nI say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh (Gal. 5:16).\nThe Christian life is a pilgrimage. In the imagery of the Scripture, it is a journey that we travel by foot. Walking is a relatively slow mode of transportation. Most of us move along this journey at a snail's pace. We do not race and leap through the obstacle course of temptation. There are barriers that impede our progress. At every point we face the speed bumps of the flesh. Again Paul writes:\nFor the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish (Gal. 5:17).\nHere is the battle. The old man is pitted against the new man. The sin nature of the flesh fights to choke the influence of the Spirit. Though this warfare is internal and invisible, there are clear outward signs of the carnage wrought by the battle. When the Spirit is victorious, we see the fruit of it. When the flesh wins, we also see the outward evidence.\nBefore Paul elaborates the fruit of the Spirit, he first sets forth the works of the flesh. The works of the flesh stand in stark contrast to the fruit of the Spirit.\nNow the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish amibitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God (Gal. 5:19-21).\nThis list of the works of the flesh is crucial for two reasons. First, it offers the contrast already mentioned to the fruit of the Spirit. Second, it identifies sinful practices that, the Apostle emphasizes (by repetition), characterize the unregenerate and the lost. Of course, it is possible for a redeemed person to fall into any of these sins for a season. Each one of them has been manifested at one time or another by the greatest of saints. But they are not to be characteristic of the Christian. If this list characterizes the lifestyle of a person, it is evidence that he is unredeemed.\nBecause this list carries such an ominous warning, it is important to give brief definition to the sins mentioned:\n1. Adultery. The first sin mentioned is a prohibition of the Seventh Commandment. It involves the violation of the sanctity of marriage via illicit sexual relations among married persons.\n2. Fornication. Fornication usually has reference to sexual intercourse among unmarried people. It is usually associated with premarital sexual intercourse. In this text, however, it has a broader meaning to include illegitimate sexual intercourse in the widest sense of the word. (Homosexual acts are included under this.)\n3. Uncleanness. There is a sexual sense implied here. It reflects a kind of behavior that popular language calls \u201cdirty.\u201d\n4. Licentiousness. This describes a wild, unruly lifestyle that is unrestrained and out of control.\n5. Idolatry. This refers to the pagan worship of idols or false gods. Idolatry in its broadest sense can include such things as worship of material possessions.\n6. Sorcery. This involves the practice of magic and the involvement with forbidden practices such as spiritualism, fortune-telling, astrology, and the like.\n7. Hatred. This reflects a character of hostility, grudge-bearing, and being unloving.\n8. Contentions. This is seen in a quarrelsome attitude. One who is contentious is argumentative and combative. He has a chip on his shoulder.\n9. Jealousies. Jealousy reflects a self-centered spirit that despises other people's achievements or victories. It displays a lack of love. Works 7, 8 and 9 are probably some of the pet sins of Christians, possibly because they can be so easily concealed or explained away.\n10. Outbursts of wrath. This indicates a character of hotheaded temper fits.\n11. Selfish ambitions. This contains the idea of a ruthless desire for personal gain at the expense of others.\n12. Dissensions. This does not rule out legitimate forms of dissent. Rather, it characterizes again the contentious spirit that is constantly bickering, feuding, and creating dissension in groups.\n13. Heresies. The root meaning of this involves a willful choosing of opinions that go against established truth. It includes more than theological errors, for it can also refer to attitudinal and behavioral errors.\n14. Envy. Envy involves the desire to possess what belongs to someone else. This can include nurturing ill will toward those who enjoy certain benefits.\n15. Murders. This is self-explanatory. Most Christians are not outright murderers, of course, but Christ's words about hating one's brother (Matt. 5:22) should be kept in mind.\n16. Drunkenness. This refers to the intemperate use of alchohol and, by implication, drug abuse.\n17. Revelries. This involves the lifestyle of the wild party goer who enjoys uninhibited orgies or drinking bouts.\nOver against this life of the works of the flesh Paul sets forth the fruit of the Spirit:\n[T]he fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law (Gal. 5:22-23).\nHere the Apostle exhibits the model of authentic righteousness. The fruit is designated as the fruit of the Spirit. Fruit is something that is produced in us. It is not of ourselves. In ourselves we are only flesh. The flesh produces nothing but more flesh. The flesh profits nothing. Martin Luther declared that \u201cnothing\u201d is not a \u201clittle something\u201d.\nLike begets like. The product comes from the producer. The progeny recapitulates the ontogeny. Only the Holy Spirit can conceive and bear the fruit of the Spirit. We can be skilled preachers without the Spirit. We can be theological geniuses after the flesh. We can be silver-tongued orators apart from grace. But the only source of the fruit of the Spirit is the work of the Holy Spirit within us.\nIt is no accident that the fruit of the Spirit is not elevated in our ranks as the highest test of righteousness. There abides so much flesh in us that we prefer another standard. The fruit test is too high; we cannot attain it. So within our Christian subcultures we prefer to elevate some lesser test by which we can measure ourselves with more success. We can compete with each other with greater facility if we mix some flesh together with Spirit.\nHow hard it is for us to be measured by our love! And please don't evaluate me by the standard of gentleness. I'm far too impatient to deserve patience as my standard mixed with the lead of envy and the alloy of rudeness. It is an inconsistent love.\nPaul, in 1 Corinthians 13, tells us that love does not envy, boast, or exhibit pride. It is not rude, self-seeking, or easily angered. It keeps no records of wrongs received. It does not delight in evil.\nLove is not defined by simplistic abstinence from drinking, dancing, makeup, movies, card-playing, and the like. It was envy that required the cross, not lipstick; it was covetousness that demanded atonement, not poker; it was pride that called forth the need for propitiation, not the cinema.\nSome describe true love as \u201cunconditional love\u201d. This concept can be either a coin of pure gold or a gilded rock in the fraud's bag of tricks. It is at once true or grossly false depending upon how it is understood. The preacher who smiles benignly from his pulpit, assuring us that \u201cGod accepts you just the way you are\u201d tells a monstrous lie. The kingdom of God is far more rigourous in its requirements than Mr Roger's neighborhood. The gospel of love may not be sugar-coated with saccharin grace. God does not accept the arrogant man in his arrogance. He turns His holy back on the impenitent. To be sure, He demonstrates love toward His fallen creatures, but that love has holy demands. We must come to Him on bended knee and with a contrite heart.\nJonathan Edwards spoke of love in this way:\nIf love is the sum of Christianity, surely those things which overthrow love are exceedingly unbecoming to Christians. An envious Christian, a malicious Christian, a cold and hard-hearted Christian, is the greatest absurdity and contradiction. It is as if one should speak of dark brightness, or a false truth.\nMy teacher Dr John Gerstner once spoke of the manifestation of agape in the life of the apostle Paul. He used the four letters of Paul's name as an acrostic to describe the man's character. The P stood for Polluted, since Paul described himself as the chief of sinners. The A stood for his Apostolic office. But it is the U and the L that are relevant here. The U referred to Paul's Uncompromising commitment to truth, the L for Paul's quality ofLove. Gerstner put it this way: \u201cIt is not that we say Paul was uncompromising and loving. Or even that he was uncompromising but loving. Rather, we say that Paul was uncompromising, therefore loving.\u201d\nSpiritual love is wrought by God. We are able to love Him because He first loved us and because it is His love that is shed abroad in our hearts. This love transcends natural affection. It flows from a h\neart that has been changed by God the Holy Spirit.\nJoy is mentioned as a fruit of the Spirit. This joy is not the joy we encounter for a moment when our favorite team wins the Super Bowl. It is not that \u201chappiness of a warm puppy\u201d. Like transcendent agape love, the Christian's joy is a transcendent joy, a joy born of blessedness. An unbeliever experiences positive emotions that evoke smiles, but no unbeliever has ever experienced the beatific joy of salvation.\nThe joy of the Spirit is permanent. This year's Super Bowl winner may not make the play-offs next season. Warm puppies grow cold in the grave. The joy of salvation is forever. The victory Christ has won for us is not seasonal. The Savior never has a bad year.\nThe joy of the Spirit is as stable at it is exhilarating. It is the joy that abides in the midst of suffering. It has depth. It penetrates the soul. It sends despair into exile and banishes pessimism. It produces confidence without arrogance, courage without bravado. Jesus of Nazareth was able to weep. Yet His tears could not dissolve the joy He knew in His Father's house.\nWe rejoice in our hope. Our hope is not the fantasy of the dreamer but the assurance of the redeemed. It is the joy of those who have ears to hear the Savior's command, \u201c[B]e of good cheer, I have overcome the world\u201d (John 16:33).\nThe peace of the Spirit is likewise transcendent. It is the peace, the shalom for which every Jew yearned. It goes beyond what Martin Luther called a carnal peace, the peace offered by the false prophets of Israel. It is not the cowardly peace won by appeasement. It is a peace wrought by permanent victory.\nWhen earthly wars are ended and the peace treaties are signed, there always abides an uneasy truce. A cold war always remains, wherein the slightest rattle of the sword may signal the beginning of new hostilities. There is a vast difference between Neville Chamberlain's leaning over a balcony declaring, \u201cWe have achieved peace in our time\u201d and Jesus\u2019 leaning over a table to say, \u201cPeace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you\u201d (John 14:27).\nThe legacy of Christ is peace. Peace is our inheritance from the Prince of Peace. It is a peace the world cannot give. This peace is a lasting peace that no one can snatch from us.\nThe Holy Spirit gives us an inner peace, a peace that passes understanding. But the peace He gives is infinitely more valuable than peace of mind. It transcends the imperturbability of the Stoic and the ataraxia of the Epicurean. It is the peace that flows from our justification. Being justified, we have peace with God. We have heard and received the gospel. We have heard the clarion call of God.\nComfort, yes, comfort My people! \u2026 Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, That her warfare is ended, That her iniquity is pardoned\u201d (Isa. 40:1-2).\nThe worst holocaust of history is the war between a holy God and His rebellious creatures. For the Christian that war is over, once and for all. We may continue to sin and incur God's displeasure. We may grieve the Spirit, but He will never again declare war upon us. It was ratified for us on the cross.\nLONG-SUFFERING (PATIENCE)\nThe fruit of the Spirit is long-suffering\u2014that is, patience. This virtue mirrors and reflects the character of God. It has no place for explosive tantrums from a hair-trigger personality. It is slow to anger. It endures the insult and the malice of others. It knows nothing of a judgmental spirit.\nIt is the stuff of which Job was made when he declared, \u201cThough He slay me, yet will I trust Him\u201d (Job 13:15). It has a capacity to wait. Waiting is difficult. We wait for planes and buses. We wait for mail and visitors. We wait for Christ to return. We wait for the promise of His vindication.\nThe Christian rejects the spirit of pragmatism. He lives in terms of long-term goals. He eschews the expedient. He stores up treasure in heaven. He is willing to wait for the hour of God.\nThe Spirit is patient with people. The fruit He gives enables us to forbear with each other. We do not demand the instant sanctification of our brothers. Patience and long-suffering do not rail against the speck in our brother's eye. They are married to the love that covers a multitude of sins.\nJesus was strong and tender. When He encountered the powerful and arrogant, He asked no quarter and gave none. When He met the weak and brokenhearted, He was tender. He never broke a bruised reed. His rebuke of the sinner was couched in kindness. \u201cNeither do I condemn you; go and sin no more\u201d (John 8:11) was His response to a humiliated woman. The Judge of all the earth was not harsh. He took no glee in condemnation.\nKindness is a virtue of grace. It involves a willingness to keep one's power and authority in check. It does not crush the weak. It is thoughtful and kind. It manifests the judgment of charity, tempering justice with mercy.\nGoodness incorporates a basic personal integrity. The fruit of the Spirit promotes a person of guilelessness. Goodness is a relative term. Something or someone is good relative to some standard. The ultimate standard of goodness is the character of God Himself. This is why Jesus said to the rich young ruler, \u201cWhy do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God\u201d (Luke 18:19).\nYet the quality of goodness is planted in the lives wherein the Holy Spirit works. He works goodness within us. Though our best works remain tainted by sin, nevertheless a real change is wrought within us. In\nsalvation we gain a cure as well as a pardon. He is making us well.\nNot only does God declare us just by the imputation of Christ's righteousness, He indwells us to make us what He declares us to be. Sanctification follows justification. That sanctification is as real as our justification. The fruit is goodness.\nFaith is a gift of God. It is also a fruit. The faith by which we are saved is not of our own doing. It comes from God. But it comes to us and is exercised by us. The Spirit works faith in us. This is Luther's fides viva, the living faith that yields works of obedience.\nFaith is trust. It means far more than believing in God. It means believing God. The fruit of the Spirit involves trusting God with our lives.\nBut the fruit of faith involves more than trust. It means that we become trustworthy. A person of faith is not only a person who trusts but a person who can be trusted. His yea means yea and his nay means nay. He keeps his word. He pays his bills. He meets his obligations. He is faithful. He is loyal. Fidelity is a mark of his character.\nGentleness is a godly virtue. A man who is gentle is a gentleman. To be an authentic gentleman is to model Christ. Polls in women's magazines repeatedly reveal that the twin virtues women desire in men are strength and tenderness.\nGentleness\u2014meekness\u2014is not to be confused with weakness. Moses was a meek man. That is, he had the quality of humility. He knew who he was. He was bold without being arrogant. It is the meek who are promised the world. Christ promises they will inherit the earth. Meekness is the flip side of gentleness. They go together, wed by a spirit of humility.\nGod gives grace to the humble. It is a grace that breeds even more grace.\nThe last fruit of the Spirit in the list\u2014self-control, or temperance\u2014flows from the other virtues. Immodesty, extremism, and flamboyance do not fit with temperance. Here the moderate level of self-control is manifested. The Spirit is not rude or pushy. He is neither violent nor crude.\nThese are the fruits of the Holy Spirit. These are the genuine marks of godliness. These are the virtues we see eminently and vividly modeled in the lives of mature Christians.\nThese are the virtues our Lord wants us to cultivate. These are the virtues that are at the same time gifts of God. God promises to reward these traits in us, not because they flow from our own intrinsic righteousness, but because, as Augustine put it, \u201cGod is pleased to crown His own gifts.\u201d\nExcerpt from The Mystery of the Holy Spirit by R.

        "raw_content": "WestJet has just announced that WestJet Rewards members who have Platinum and Gold status will now get unlimited access to lounges along with up to 5 immediate family members who are travelling on the same itinerary. The previous benefit was just 10 lounge passes without family access so this is quite the improvement. What\u2019s most impressive is that WestJet had already recently made improvements to their rewards program so now members are getting even more!\nIt\u2019s also worth mentioning that Gold and Platinum tier members still get two annual one-time use guest vouchers so when you\u2019re travelling with friends or colleagues, you can enjoy the lounge with them.\nSilver members are also getting a small enhancement in two additional lounge vouchers which can be used for their own use or to invite friends and family. Currently, Silver members get 4 annual lounge vouchers, so now they can have a total of 6.\nAlthough WestJet currently only has 15 airport lounges across Canada, along with lounges\nin the U.K. and the Caribbean, they\u2019ve been adding more lounges to their network. More importantly, this is another great benefit for Gold and Platinum tier members. WestJet had already made some improvements to their Rewards program over the last year so it\u2019s cool to see that they\u2019re giving even more benefits to their top tier members.\nWestJet has already announced that they\u2019ll continue to expand on the benefits and experiences for all tiers, so I can\u2019t wait to see what else they have in store.\nIf you\u2019re a frequent or even infrequent WestJet flyer, you may want to apply for the WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard.

        "title": "Mono and Stereo High-End Audio Magazine: DIGITAL: THE UN-COLA",
        "raw_content": "DIGITAL: THE UN-COLA\nIt's perennially interesting to me that sometimes readers will extract some kind of meaning from articles that they haven't read - and have only surmised the conclusion by reading the title of the article alone.\nI have no idea how to combat this bad habit, so I won't. But I will bring up an old marketing line from the distant (ish) past that I hope helps to summarize my feelings about the quality of listening to music through a digital medium.\nBack in the 1970's the citrus-flavored soda \"7-Up\" was having a difficult time selling against the popular cola drinks of the day, namely Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and RC Cola. In the South (especially), any softdrink at all was called \"coke\" ... that's how pervasive and effective the branding was.\nThe way that they figured out how to market against cola was to celebrate the difference and called it an \"Un-Cola\" ... and so they hired the very personable Geoffrey Holder to do a series of commercials that extolled the delightfulness of 7-Up's UnCola-ness:\nI think of Digital, generally, as the UnCola to the analog LP. A qualitative choice that I can make when I would prefer to have that flavor.\nIt's not about better or worse - not these days. Digital is a quite high-resolution format that has plenty of delightful things about it. Theres no reason not to play digital if you like it or want to. There's no defensible philosophy, as far as I'm concerned - although there are folks who are passionately anti-digital (or anti-LP), and there's room for them in the world, too.\nBut the thing about 7-Up when considering a choice to make between beverages was that it was missing an important ingredient - an ingredient that all cola drinks had as a natural consequence of being derived from Kola nut: CAFFEINE\nLikewise, analog has ingredients that aren't in digital. Some of these ingredients are considered flaws. Some of them might be emulated by digital filtering and DSP - although I have yet to hear anything that hits the button in the right way. Regardless - when it comes to the sonic attributes of playing LPs vs playing CDs or downloaded files, the differences are enough to inspire discussion.\nLots of discussion. Usually about things we didn't start discussing in the first place. But let that be for the moment.\nThere remain those of us who love vinyl for all that it is, warts and jewels and everything in between. We love the sheer physicality of the format, we love the ownership of the object and celebrate it as a work of art. These are dimensions of the art that cannot be emulated by downloads. Perhaps most of all, we enjoy the sound of LPs.\nMore and more people every year are discovering how delightful listening to records can be, and this has inspired some incredibly courageous investment. A few companies have done the R&D, and have begun building NEW record pressing machines because the demand is increasing. Sony has begun building a new record pressing plant, even as they shutter optical disc manufacturing facilities. Technics (Panasonic) has not only reintroduced the SL-1200, they have also reintroduced the SP-10. I'm sure there will be plenty of news to come from the music industry regarding the re-emergence of vinyl as a physical format for music distribution.\nNo matter how compelling the argument is for modern digital downloads and streaming - and it is compelling, I agree - it can never be the equal of the vinyl LP because it will never be real. It will always be virtual, and as such it has no actual (fungible, realizable) value except to the people that are selling it.\nI truly enjoy listening to digital music on my server, a Clones Audio HOST/ASHER combination that I'm actually in love with. I've ripped all my CDs to the hard drive (well, most of them, anyway), and even put some needle-drops on there. I've transferred some of the digital recordings I've done in high-resolution, and I would like to be able to release some recordings in the future ... hell, I might even release some downloads!\nLike I said ... this is not about Philosophy. It's about finding something delightful and valuable about the LP record, and enjoying its unique qualities - qualities that downloads and streams do not have.\nI've argued recently that the LP will be the only remaining physical format. I believe that will be absolutely true within less than 5 years. I may be wrong. But there's no way to know except on the day before the end of the 5th year of my prediction.\nBe Groovy ...",

        "title": "The Monstrous Regiment of Women: November 2015",
        "raw_content": "Dhuoda of Uz\u00e8s: Writing to Save Her Life?\nDhuoda of Uz\u00e8s (son William born 29 November 826)\nAlmost everything we know about the ninth-century Frankish noblewoman named Dhuoda of Uz\u00e8s is recorded in the book she completes on 2 February 843. The day is specified in Dhuoda's text, the year conjectural: as she dates it, her work was \"finished four days before the Nones of February, the feast of the Purification of the holy and glorious Mary, always virgin, under the favorable reign of Christ in the and in the hope for a God-given king.\" (After the death of Louis the Pious, the son of the Emperor Charlemagne, his three sons went to war with one another, a war that ended in August 843--thus Dhuoda's \"hope\" for an end to the question of who was to rule suggests she was finishing her book before the matter was decided.)\nDetail from a late-tenth- or early-eleventh-century\nfragmentary manuscript of Dhuoda's handbook,\nnow in N\u00eemes\nAt first glance, the kinds of details we might want to know about Dhuoda are few: she was married to Bernard of Septimania at the imperial court of Aix-la-Chapelle in June of 824. After her marriage, she seems to have been taken to the town of Uz\u00e8s, in southern France near N\u00eemes, where she spent the rest of her life.\nDhuoda tells us nothing at all about her parents, about her childhood, or about how she came to be married to Bernard.\nOn 29 November 826 Dhuoda gave birth to her first son, William. On 22 March 841, she gave birth to a second son in Uz\u00e8s. Scholars now indicate that child may have been named Bernard, but Dhuoda herself did not know his name. In writing to her older son, she says, \"And when your little brother, whose name I still do not know, has received the grace of baptism in Christ, do not hesitate to teach him, to educate him, to love him, and to call him to progress from good to better.\"\nBetween the birth of her two sons, Dhuoda's husband, Bernard, who had been a close counselor of Louis the Pious, encouraged the emperor's son Pepin to rebel against his father--the civil war that followed (831-833) resulted in Bernard's loss of possessions and titles. During a subsequent revolt, this time by the emperor's son Lothair (833-834), Bernard remained loyal to Louis, and in 835 his titles and possessions were restored.\nStill, Bernard's disloyalty--and suspicion that he had a sexual relationship with the emperor's wife, Judith--had resulted in more than the loss of his possessions. As one scholar notes, Bernard was \"punished through his sister Gerberga\"--a nun in the convent of Chalon-sur-Sa\u00f4ne, in 832 Gerberga was accused of witchcraft, thrown into \"a wine cask,\" and tossed into the river to drown.\nAlthough Bernard survived, about the year 840 he removed Dhuoda's fourteen-year-old son, William, from her care and sent him as a hostage to the court of Charles the Bald, the third son of Louis the Pious, likely as a guarantee of his Bernard's continued good behavior. Later, after the birth of their younger son--even before he has been baptized, as we have seen--Bernard removed the infant from Dhuoda's care as well.\nIsolated and now separated from her children, Dhuoda begins to write. As she tells us, she begins the composition of her \"little book\" on 30 November 841; or, rather, in her words, \"This little book was begun in the second year after the death of Louis, the late emperor, two days before the Kalends of December, on the feast of St. Andrew, at the beginning of the holy season of the Lord's Advent.\"\nAs you can see, she also begins her book on the day after William's birthday.\nDhuoda is quite specific about what her book is--it is, she says, a handbook, \"the handbook of Dhuoda, which she sent to her son William.\" In this, she emphasizes the intimate, personal, nature of her work. It is the physical link that connects them, even though they are physically separated (Dhuoda is not even sure where William is):\nI wish that you eagerly take this work in your own hand and fulfill its precepts, after my hand has addressed it to you. I wish you to hold it, turn its pages and read it, so that you may fulfill it in worthy action. For this little model-book, called a handbook, is a lesson from me and a task for you.\nAs a woman, Dhuoda struggles with her role as author. She knows that her son has books \"to read, ponder, contemplate, study, and understand,\" and she knows that he has, as well, \"learned men\" who will teach him--but she writes as his mother.\nIt still doesn't mean her task is easy. Many scholars have noticed the hesitations that are characteristic of the texts of medieval women writers, and Dhuoda's is no exception. The many and varied \"beginnings\" of her Liber manualis seem to represent, visibly, the difficulties and obstacles she faces--almost as if she needs to gather momentum, she starts with an incipit textus (\"Here begins the text\"), followed by an incipit liber (\"here begins the book\"), then an epigraph (Latin couplets with an acrostic that reads Dhuoda dilecto filio vvilhelmo salutem lege, \"Dhuoda sends greetings to her beloved son William. Read.\"), then an incipit prologus (\"Here begins the prologue\"), and, finally the praefatio (\"preface\"). Only after all this can she \"begin.\"\nThe N\u00eemes manuscript; a fourteenth-century\nmanuscript survives in Barcelona,\na seventeenth-century copy also survives (Paris)\nEleven books of advice, recommendations, cautions, instructions, information, and love follow: \"Loving God,\" \"The Mystery of the Trinity,\" \"Social Order and Secular Success,\" \"Moral Life,\" \"God's Chastisement of Those He Loves,\" The Usefulness of the Beatitudes,\" \"The Deaths of the Body and of the Spirit,\" \"How to Pray and for Whom,\" \"Interpreting Numbers,\" \"Summary of the Work's Major Points,\" and \"The Usefulness of Reciting the Psalms.\"\nIn the penultimate chapter, \"Summary of the Work's Major Points,\" we again see Dhuoda's hesitations--as if she dare not sever the connection of the handbook, the only link between her and her son. This book opens with Latin verses \"On the age you have attained,\" in which she begins, \"You have now reached four times four years\" (thus 29 November 842). Then there is another acrostic, each line of verse, she says, \"begun with the letters of your name.\" Then there is a \"postcript,\" beginning \"Here the words of this little book conclude.\"\nExcept Dhuoda can't end. She adds another section, headed \"Returning to myself, I grieve.\" (Here too she refers simply to William's \"little brother,\" suggesting that she still does not know the boy's name.) This section ends, \"This handbook ends here. Amen. Thanks be to God.\"\nBut then there is more. A list of members of Bernard's family. Then an epitaph, which she asks that William make sure is written on her grave--an epitaph that not only names her (\"Formed of earth, in this tomb / Lies the earthly body of Dhuoda. / Great king, receive her.\") but that also includes her name in an acrostic.\nAfter all these \"conclusions\"--and what, really, could be more conclusive than her epitaph?--there's Book Eleven, on choosing and reading Psalms. And then one final conclusion: \"Thanks be to God, the handbook for William ends here in the word of the gospel: It is consummated.\"\nIn the pages of her handbook, Dhuoda reveals her erudition--she is writing in Latin prose, composing in Latin verse (including the multiple acrostics), and demonstrating her familiarity with the Vulgate Bible, the writings of the Church Fathers, including Ambrose, Augustine, Jerome, and Gregory the Great, her knowledge of Latin classics and Christian classics (such as the Rule of St. Benedict), and her familiarity with the work of Carolingian scholars like Alcuin.\nShe conveys her knowledge of court culture and etiquette, something of her sense of diplomacy, and even hints at the reasons why Bernard has placed her in Uz\u00e8s (she has been acting in Bernard's interests, and she indicates that, in order to \"defend the interests\" of her \"lord,\" she has negotiated many loans, \"not only from Christians but also from Jews\"--she wants William to make sure all of these debts are discharged if she dies before she has completely discharged her obligations to her creditors.)\nBut I have to admit that I am most deeply moved by Dhuoda's emphasis on the physical connection that her writing maintains with her distant son. It is, as she frequently says, a book that travels from her hand to his. I love her repetitions of \"I am your mother.\" William may have books and advisers, but \"I am still your mother.\"\nAnd, finally, I am deeply moved by Dhuoda's voice, reaching out to us over the course of the centuries. She is writing to William. She hopes William will share her book, certainly with his younger brother. But she also, it seems to me, imagines us:\nAnd as for any other who may someday read the handbook you now peruse, may he too ponder the words that follow here so that he may commend me to God's salvation as if I were buried beneath these words.\nFind here, reader, the verses of my epitaph:\n\u2020 D \u2020 M \u2020 [the abbreviation for dis manibus, \"into God's hands\"]\nAnd again, one last plea: \"Reader, if you are found worthy to see Christ in eternal happiness, pray for that Dhuoda who is mentioned here.\"\nDhuoda seems to have died not long after she completed her handbook (throughout the work she refers to her illness and declining health). I don't know that I am \"worthy\" in the terms that Dhuoda sets, but I do offer my prayers for her.\nDhuoda's work is available in Carol Neel's Handbook for William: A Carolingian Woman's Counsel for Her Son, whose translation I have relied on here.\nBy the way, in case you were wondering: Bernard of Septemania rebelled again and was executed in 844. Dhuoda's son William was killed in 850, as Neel writes, \"in an attempt to avenge his father.\" The younger son, whose name Dhuoda did not know, may be Bernard Plantevelue--if so, although he too tried to murder Charles the Bald (in 856), he was pardoned by Charles the Fat, granted the title of margrave of Aquitaine, among others, married Ermengarde of Auvergne, and had two children, William of Aquitaine, known later as William the Pious (he founded the Benedictine abbey of Cluny), and Adelinda, who married and had three children. If this is Dhuoda's son, he at least managed to live until 886 or 889.\nLabels: Dhuoda of Uzes, women and education, women and literature, women writers\nEleanor of Castile, queen of England (died 28 November 1290)\nFirst of all, Eleanor of Castile, queen of England, is not to be confused with Eleanor of England, queen of Castile. Got that?\nEleanor of Castile's tomb effigy,\nWesterminster Abbey\nEleanor of England (1162-1214) was the daughter of Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine--Eleanor of England was married to Alfonso VIII of Castile in 1177.\nEleanor of England's namesake, Eleanor of Castile, is her great-granddaughter, the daughter of Ferdinand III of Castile and his second wife, Joan of Dammartin, countess of Ponthieu in her own right.\nOur Eleanor (of Castile) married Edward of England, the son and heir of Henry III of England; when Edward succeeded his father as king of England, becoming Edward I, Eleanor of Castile became queen consort of England.\n(Interestingly, there were plans for Joan of Dammartin, Eleanor of Castile's mother, to have married Henry III of England, Eleanor of England's brother. Sheesh! All this gets so complicated! Not to mention that Eleanor of Castile and Edward of England were cousins--I'm not sure of the exact degree!)\nEleanor of Castile was probably born in the year 1241. On the first anniversary of her death, the commemoration included forty-nine candle-bearers, one for each year of her life--thus suggesting the year of her birth.\nAs John Carmi Parsons writes in his study of Eleanor of Castile, \"A single paragraph would suffice to state the year of her birth and all that is known of her life in Castile, but pages are needed for the negotiations preceding her marriage in 1254, and the sources thereafter fall silent again until Edward's accession in 1272.\"\nAbout Eleanor of Castile's early life, Parsons notes that is is \"unlikedly that Eleanor was raised like her half-brothers, in spartan conditions.\" She seems to have imbibed the values and ideals of chivalric culture in a royal court that was both cultured and cosmopolitan.\nAs a queen, Eleanor gave birth to sixteen children between 1255 and 1284, six of them surviving into adulthood--the youngest, Edward of Caernarvon, succeeded his father as Edward II. She accompanied her husband to the Holy Land on the Eighth Crusade, leaving England in 1270.\nEleanor gave birth to two daughters while she was in Palestine, only one of whom, Joan of Acre, born in April of 1272, survived. The royal couple learned of the death of Henry III on November 1272 while on their trip back to England (they were in Sicily when they received the news in December). The couple were crowned on 19 August 1274. In 1279, Eleanor succeeded her mother as countess of Ponthieu.\nAs queen, Eleanor took up the business of queens, negotiating marriages for her royal family (mostly her maternal relatives), her \"matrimonial ventures\" avoiding the kinds of opposition and suspicion that her mother-in-law Eleanor of Provence had encountered. By contrast, Eleanor of Castile's arrangements were \"businesslike,\" with the aim of generating loyalty to the crown through these marital alliances rather than personal gain.\nEleanor had spent her childhood in \"the most aggressively literary court in Europe\"; as an adult, she established scriptoria for the production of books, was a patron of literature, and commissioned writing both secular (an Arthurian romance, for example, and the life of a count of Ponthieu) and spiritual--several noted psalters were produced for her.\nShe was also a patron of the emerging universities at Oxford and Cambridge, supported the Dominican order and the foundation of numerous Dominican institutions, and popularized the incorporation of tapestries and carpets in domestic spaces and specially designed gardens in exterior spaces.\nAfter she died in 1290, her husband constructed a series of crosses to mark each day's stage as her body traveled from Lincoln to Westerminster Abbey. At each of the twelve overnight stops, an Eleanor Cross was erected (giving the name to London's Charing Cross). Three of the original crosses remain (Geddington, Hardingstone, Waltham).\nThe surviving Eleanor Cross\nat Geddington (Northamptonshire)\nGiven the limits of the evidence about Eleanor of Castile's life, Parsons's work is not a biography but, as I noted above, a study: Eleanor of Castile: Queen and Society in Thirteenth-Century England. Parsons focuses a great deal of attention on medieval queenship in his analysis of Eleanor's accounts and her administration of household, her wardrobe, exchequer, and treasury records, and her administration of her lands.\nWhile all \"foreign\" queens suffered from some degree of suspicion and gossip (as we have seen with Isabeau of Bavaria, queen of France, to name just one example), Eleanor of Castile's property deals caused controversy--providing another rich source of information about her. As Parson notes, the queen \"acquired a great amount of land by means that were often questionable, and popular reaction was negative.\"\nIn a wonderful section of his book, \"Outcry and Gossip, Rumor and Scandal,\" Parsons analyzes correspondence (and the rumors, complaints, and gossip conveyed in these letters), petitions, contemporary verse (\"The king desires to get our gold / The queen our manors fair to hold\"), and chroniclers (\"a Spaniard by birth, who acquired many fine manors\") that were either addressed to the queen or were written about the queen.\nLabels: Eleanor of Aquitaine, Eleanor of Castile, Isabeau of Bavaria, queens\nFanny Kemble: Actress, Abolitionist, Author\nFrances Anne Kemble Butler (born 27 November 1809)\nI am embarrassed to admit that, before embarking on this daybook project, I knew only that Fanny Kemble was a successful actress, born into a family of actors, and what little I knew about her as a nineteenth-century professional woman (and friend of the American novelist Henry James) was what led me to posting about her.\nFanny Kemble, 1830\nBut what I found out, once I began to investigate Kemble's life, was eye-opening--not that it wasn't there all along, but I was completely unaware of the totality of Kemble's career.\nSo, first Fanny Kemble as an actress: she was the daughter of two actors, Charles Kemble and his wife, Marie Th\u00e9r\u00e8se de Camp, who was herself born into an acting family (she was born in Vienna but began performing in English theatres in the late eighteenth century). The great Sarah Siddons (born Sarah Kemble) was Fanny's aunt, her father's younger sister; the actress Adelaide de Camp was also Fanny's aunt, her mother's sister. Fanny's younger sister, Adelaide Kemble, was an accomplished and well-known opera singer.\nFanny Kemble made her stage debut at Covent Garden in 1829, and she gained success almost immediately, credited with having saved her family from economic ruin. She was particularly known for playing Shakespearean roles--Juliet (her debut role), Portia, and Beatrice among them. She made a successful tour of the United States with her father in 1832 and, later in her career, focused on a series of highly regarded (and financially successful) Shakespearean readings.\nThis much I knew. What I didn't know, however, proved revealing. At first I learned that Kemble was a writer--she wrote and published plays, poetry, memoirs, translations, and, in Notes on Some of Shakespeare's Plays, what we might regard as literary criticism, based on her years of experience with and reflections on the Shakespeare canon (the volume was published in 1882, when Kemble was in her seventies).\nMore significantly, however, Kemble married Pierce Mease Butler, an American, in 1834--at the time that they met in Philadelphia, Butler was the heir to one of the greatest of U.S. fortunes, including two plantations (a rice plantation on Butler Island, and a sea-island cotton plantation on St. Simon's Island). When he finally inherited his family properties in 1836, he also became one of the largest slaveholders in the United States.\nKemble was later to write that she did not know the source of Butler's wealth when she married him--she was already a supporter of abolition. But in 1838, although he knew of his wife's views, Butler took her and their two daughters, Sarah and Frances, to live on the plantations in Georgia.\nThe couple clashed frequently over the morality of slavery and the conditions of the enslaved people on the Butler plantations. Kemble recorded her experiences in a diary--her views on the institution of slavery, her descriptions of the conditions of the slaves and of her encounters with them, her assessment of the other planters with whom the Butlers socialized. All of this she collected in a volume that she would later entitle Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation.\nA year after leaving the plantations and returning to Philadelphia--where the Pennsylvania Abolition Society had been founded in 1775, where William Lloyd Garrison had begun publication of The Liberator in 1831, where the American Anti-Slavery Society had been established in 1833, and where Lucretia Mott, Angelina Grimk\u00e9, and Sarah Grimk\u00e9 were all organizing against slavery--Fanny Kemble would write to a friend, \"I have sometimes been haunted with the idea that it was an imperative duty, knowing what I know, and having seen what I have seen, to do all that lies in my power to show the dangers and the evils of this frightful institution.\"\nKemble might well have published her Journal as a number of abolitionists were encouraging her to do--except that her marriage to Pierce Butler had become irretrievably broken. Certainly their conflict over slavery was critical--but Butler was also unfaithful, he isolated her, he separated her from her children, and he threatened to sever all ties between her and her daughters if she published her memoirs about life at the Georgia plantations.\nBy 1846, the two separated and, increasingly unhappy in the United States, Kemble returned to England where she resumed her role on the stage. But she soon returned to the United States: in 1848, she learned that Butler had sued her for divorce, claiming that Kemble had \"willfully, maliciously, and without due cause, deserted him on September 11, 1845.\"\nAfter a protracted--and expensive--legal battle, Butler was granted his divorce. By the terms of the decision, Butler retained legal custody of the children, though Kemble would have the right to see them for two months in the summers. The daughters were not allowed any other contact with their mother until after they reached the age of twenty-one.\nKemble remained in the United States, giving successful performances of her readings from Shakespeare. She still could not publish the Journal, fearful of the effects that any publication would have on Butler and on her contact with her children. But after the outbreak of the Civil War and concerned about public opinion in England, she finally published Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation in 1838-1839 in 1863.\nPublication notice in Harper's Weekly\nIts publication was explosive and divisive. As Catherine Clinton notes,\nKemble's riveting account of her husband's slaves provides gripping insight on life in the antebellum South. As the wife of a planter, Kemble had unimpeded access to plantation affairs and was especially poignant and pointed when she allowed the voices of slave women, so seldom heard during this era, to shine through in the pages of her journal.\nFanny and her daughter Sarah were reconciled once Sarah reached the age of twenty-one. Fanny's younger daughter Frances remained with her father and, bitter over her mother's Journal, later published her own memoir in 1883, Ten Years on a Georgia Plantation, intended to refute her mother's work.\nAs for Butler--he lost his vast fortune in gambling and stock speculation. He was forced to liquidate his assets, including the sale all his slaves, by auction, on 3 March 1859. It was the largest single sale of human beings in U.S., known forever as \"the weeping time.\"\nKemble continued performing in the United States, in Europe and in England--she died in London on 15 January 1893.\nThere are several noteworthy biographies, but instead of linking to them (they are easily found), I thought I'd link to two online essays that focus on Kemble's abolitionist views and her Journal: Catherine Clinton's essay is in the New Georgia Encyclopedia, which you can access online by clicking here; and the entry on Kemble at the African-American Registry, which you can access by clicking here.\nYou can buy various print-on-demand reprint editions of Kemble's Journal, but the book is also available through Project Gutenberg (click here) and at the Internet Archive you can read an online facsimile of the 1863 American edition, advertised above (read read, click here).\nLabels: Angelina Grimke, Fanny Kemble, Lucretia Mott, Sarah Grimke, women and abolition, women writers\nSojourner Truth: \"I did not run off, for I thought that wicked, but I walked off, believing that to be all right\"\nIsabella Baumfree, who named herself Sojourner Truth (died 26 November 1883)\nOne of the most admired figures in nineteenth-century American history, Isabella Baumfree claimed her freedom when she escaped from slavery in 1826 and forged her identity by naming herself Sojourner Truth 1843.\nOne of Truth's visiting cards\nBorn and enslaved in the north--New York--and not the south, as most people might assume, Truth is perhaps best known for the speech she delivered at the Women's Convention (Akron, Ohio) on 29 May 1851, now commonly titled \"Ain't I a Woman?\"\nThe first accounts of the speech were brief, printed within days of its delivery first by the the New York Tribune (6 June) and then by the abolitionist newspaper The Liberator.\nTruth collaborated with abolitionist Marius R. Robinson to publish a full (recreated) text of the speech in the Anti-Slavery Bugle, the weekly publication of the Ohio American Anti-Slavery Society. That version includes this line: \"I have as much muscle as any man, and can do as much work as any man. I have plowed and reaped and husked and chopped and mowed, and can any man do more than that?\"\nIn none of these accounts is the familiar question \"ain't I a woman?\" mentioned. In fact, the repeated question did not appear at all until 1863, when Frances Dana Gage, who had chaired the 1851 convention, published her version of the speech in the National Slavery Standard. In addition to adding in the refrain, Gage also ventriloquized Truth's voice using the dialect of a Southern slave--Truth herself was born in New York, her first language was low Dutch, and she never lived in the south. (The dialect of the Truth speech became even more pronounced in Gage's republished versions of 1875, 1881, and 1889.) Gage's text was the version included in Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Matilda Joslyn Gage's History of Woman Suffrage.\nFor better or worse, this is the version we seem to be stuck with. But Sojourner Truth's life is so much more than that one speech. After she escaped to freedom with her daughter in 1826, she sought to recover her son who had been sold by his New York owner to a slaveholder in Alabama--she won her court case.\nThe New York Tribune account of\nTruth's 1851 speech\nShe became a Methodist minister, preached against slavery, became a supporter of women's rights, religious tolerance, and pacifism.\nIn addition to her speech at the Ohio convention, she published her memoirs, The Narrative of Sojourner Truth: A Northern Slave, she bought a home, delivered many other notable speeches, and, after the Civil War, worked to provide land grants for former enslaved people. She also attempted to vote in the 1872 presidential election.\nFor a good overview of the issues involved in the Gage version of the \"Ain't I a Woman?\" speech, I recommend Kay Siebler's \"Far from the Truth: Teaching the Politics of Sojourner Truth's 'Ain't I a Woman?'\" (Pedagogy 10, no. 3 [2010]: 511-33)--you can download a .pdf of this essay by clicking here..\nLabels: first-wave feminism, Sojourner Truth, women and abolition, women's suffrage\nKatherine Swynford: Is It Really a Love Story?\nKatherine de Roet, lady Swynford and, later, duchess of Lancaster (born 25 November 1349 or 1350)\nFor generations of readers, Anya Seton's 1954 historical novel Katherine was the means by which they came to the story of Katherine Swynford. Seton's is a romantic narrative in the extreme: the twenty-five-year-long love affair between a young woman with no social status or political significance and John of Gaunt, duke of Lancaster, the third son of Edward III, king of England.\nKatherine Swynford's device,\nfeaturing Katherine Wheels,\nadopted after her marriage to\nJohn of Gaunt, duke of Lancaster\nTheir passion, their heartbreak, their separation, their against-the-odds marriage (Katherine becomes Gaunt's third wife)--it's an amazing novel. I read it for the first time, just a few years ago, on the recommendation of a co-worker, and I loved it. Much to my co-worker's surprise, actually, since she thought I would hate a book that was, as she apologetically described it, \"just fiction.\" (She said this to me, knowing that I taught literature!!)\nI have also read Alison Weir's biography of Swynford, Mistress of the Monarchy: The Life of Katherine Swynford, Duchess of Lancaster. Weir begins her study by noting her own lifelong fascination with Seton's novel:\nThis is a love story, one of the greatest and most remarkable love stories of medieval England. . . .\nKatherine Swynford's story first captured my imagination four decades ago, when I read Anya Seton's famous novel about her, Katherine. This epic novel made a tremendous impact on me as an adolescent, and still has the power to move me today. And I am not alone, because it has hardly been out of print since its first publication in 1954, and ranked ninety-fifth in the top one hundred favorite books voted for by the public in BBC TV's \"The Big Read\" in 2003.\nWhile I loved Seton's novel, I did not love Weir's biography--I guess I expect more out of non-fiction. We simply do not know whether Katherine Swynford's relationship with John of Gaunt was \"one of the greatest and most remarkable love stories\" of the late Middle Ages--or of any time. Too much focus on the inner (and highly romanticized) feelings and motivations of historical figures in a work of history doesn't make for good history, or at least not the kind of history that I appreciate.\nThere simply is not much information available about Katherine Swynford, for one thing. The broad facts of her life are known: she was the daughter of Paon de Roet, a knight from the county of Hainault, a principality that was part of the Habsburg empire (the area generally corresponding, now, to Belgium), who seems to have become a part of the English court around the time of Edward III's marriage to Philippa of Hainault. (While Paon de Roet was not named in the official list of Philippa's retinue, the fifteenth-century court historian Jean Froissart, himself from Hainault, indicates that he was one of the \"other young squires\" who accompanied her to England at the time of her marriage.)\nHistorians have never been able to identify Katherine de Roet's mother--there is simply no information about Paon de Roet's marriage. Even so, there is speculation he married more than once--that his four children, born over the course of fifteen years, must have had different mothers--and that Katherine's mother was somehow connected to the ruling family of Hainault, and thus that she was related to Philippa of Hainault. But no evidence.\nI'm posting today because her birthdate is conventionally cited as 25 November--but that is speculation too, simply because it is the feast date of Katherine of Alexandria, a saint for whom Katherine would demonstrate particular reverence (as we might expect if this were her patron saint). The badge she adopted after her marriage to John of Gaunt incorporated Katherine Wheels in its imagery, as did a variety of vestments she offered as gifts to Lincoln Cathedral.\nKatherine Swynford's tomb,\nKatherine's eldest sister, Elizabeth de Roet, was probably born around the year 1335; she became a canoness at the Abbey of St. Waudru in Mons (Hainault).\nHer brother, Walter, was probably born between 1338-40; he served Margaret, countess of Hainault, and fought under Edward, the \"Black Prince,\" probably at the battle of Poitiers in 1356.\nKatherine's younger sister Philippa, likely born in the 1350s, was a member of Queen Philippa's household and would later marry the poet Geoffrey Chaucer.\nAt some point before 24 January 1365, when she is referred to by her married name in the register of Lincoln Cathedral, Katherine de Roet was married to Sir Hugh Swynford, of Kettlethorpe. She bore him at least three children, though their order of birth is not clear: Blanche (b. 1363?), Margaret, and Thomas (b. 24 February 1367). Sir Hugh was killed in 1371, fighting with John of Gaunt in Aquitaine.\nAnd at some point after Gaunt's marriage to the heiress Blanche of Lancaster in 1359, Katherine had joined her court. (Katherine's daughter Blanche was likely named after the duchess.) Also at some point, again we don't know when, Katherine became the governess of Blanche and Gaunt's daughters, Philippa and Elizabeth. And at some point, too, she became Gaunt's mistress.\nBlanche of Lancaster died in 1369, when she was just twenty-three years old; on 21 September 1371, John of Gaunt married Constance of Castile (Constance's younger sister, Isabella, married Gaunt's younger brother). While married to Constance, and having children with her (a daughter, Constance of Lancaster, born in 1373, and a son, John, born in 1374), Gaunt had four children with Katherine: John (b. 1373), Henry (b.1375), Thomas (b.1377) and Joan (b.1379). The children were given the surname Beaufort.\nAfter Constance of Castile died in March of 1394, on 13 January 1396, Gaunt married Katherine Swynford. Their four children were legitimized by Pope Boniface IX and the English king, Richard II. Gaunt died just three years later, in 1399.\nThe relationship between John of Gaunt and Katherine Swynford was widely condemned by contemporaries, who called her an \"abominable strumpet\" and an \"unspeakable concubine.\" Gaunt himself was condemned for being \"blinded by desire\" and a \"doting fool.\"\nWhile Seton and Weir are anxious not only to defend Katherine but to tell the story of a great \"love affair,\" I'm not sure that Gaunt and Swynford's relationship was what Weir calls, quoting Shakespeare, \"A marriage of true minds,\" nor that Katherine was \"the love of his heart, and the sole focus of his desire\" (particularly since Gaunt is known to have had sexual relationships with other women--other than his wife, that is--during the time of his relationship to Katherine Swynford--\"sole focus of his desire\"??????).\nPart of what makes me so hesitant, I think, is that clearly Katherine was in a position that made her vulnerable--vulnerable in terms of her sex (as a woman to a man), vulnerable in terms of her social status (as a woman of a somewhat ambiguous social class in relationship to one of the most powerful men in England), vulnerable in terms of her marital status (as a widow, probably, at the time her relationship with Gaunt began). She was certainly financially dependent. Her children's futures were also at risk--the children that she had with Swynford as well as her children with Gaunt.\nRather than reduce (and I do mean reduce) Katherine to a romanticized object of desire or a woman driven by passion, I guess I'd rather focus on her rather limited options as a woman. Her sister's husband, Geoffrey Chaucer, could rise in service to John of Gaunt, Richard II, and Henry IV, by means of his wits through a series of royal grants and appointments.\nAs a woman, perhaps equally gifted and ambitious, Katherine Swynford's options were more limited. But she certainly accomplished a great deal within the limited scope offered women. Unlike Chaucer, the upwardly mobile son of a merchant, she couldn't dedicate graceful dream visions to royal patrons or secure increasingly important bureaucratic posts. But she could become a governess to aristocratic children--which she did--she could marry reasonably well--which she did--and whether she courted a sexual relationship that could advance her position and offer her security or agreed to one because she was madly in love or accepted one because she had little choice in the matter, she certainly advanced her Beaufort children.\nIt was exceptional for a man--especially a royal duke, the son of a king--to marry a woman who had been his mistress, certainly. But was the marriage to Katherine Swynford the culmination of a long love affair? Or was it, as the chronicler Froissart suggested, because of his \"affection\" for the children he had with her? Or, perhaps, because if legitimized, his Beaufort children could prove the source of consolidating yet more power and influence?\nWhatever the case, Gaunt's children with Katherine Swynford, legitimized in 1399, proved themselves to be extraordinary. John Beaufort, first earl of Somerset, was the grandfather of Margaret Beaufort, the mother of Henry Tudor, who became Henry VII of England. Henry Beaufort, bishop of Winchester, became a Cardinal in 1426, and presided over the trial of Joan of Arc after her capture in 1431. He served as Lord Chancellor of England on several occasions and was part of the regency council for Henry VI. (And he had an illegitimate daughter--oops.) Thomas Beaufort, duke of Exeter, held a variety of military commands and also served as Lord Chancellor of England. Joan Beaufort, countess of Westmoreland, married into the powerful Neville family--her daughter was a woman we have met before, Cecily Neville, and thus Joan Beaufort was the grandmother not only of Edward IV and Richard III, but also of Elizabeth of York, who married Henry Tudor.\nGaunt's son by Blanche of Lancaster, Henry, ultimately became king of England, and when he did so, he referred to Katherine as \"the king's mother,\" even after Gaunt's death, a tribute to this remarkable woman.\nNot a bad outcome for Katherine de Roet, the daughter of an unremarkable knight from a small county on the continent.\nI've already linked you, above, to Weir's biography, though I will warn you that much of the book is really about John of Gaunt, since there is so little information, really, about Katherine Swynford. There is also a biography by Jeanette Lucraft, Katherine Swynford: The History of a Medieval Mistress.\nI have not read Lucraft's biography, but certainly her essay, \"Missing from History: Jeanette Lucraft Recovers the Identity and Reputation of the Remarkable Katherine Swynford,\" published in History Today, is excellent, and I'll link to it here.\n(By the way, this is another great example of the reason \"traditional\" marriage isn't quite what people think it is!)\nLabels: Cecily Neville, Elizabeth of York, Joan Beaufort, Katherine Swynford, Lady Margaret Beaufort, traditional marriage, women and political power\nLucrezia Borgia, a \"Pearl among Women\"\nLucrezia Borgia (death of her mother, Vannozza dei Cattanei on 24 November 1518)\nVery few women have the kind of notoriety that attaches to the name of Lucrezia Borgia--I remember throwing around her name when I was just a girl and a friend accused me of having been mean to her: \"Oh, yeah, I'm Lucrezia Borgia,\" I snarled. Of course I had no idea who Lucrezia Borgia was--just that she was somehow awful and evil.\nLucrezia Borgia, c. 1510,\nportrait by Veneziano\nBut, while she was accused of poisoning her husband and of incest with both father and brother, Cesare, Lucrezia Borgia was probably guilty of neither.\nAs the year nears its end and I'm scrambling to include women in the few remaining posts left in my daybook, I've had to explain more frequently about why I've selected to write about certain women on certain dates, and that is the case here as well. So, although we do know the days on which Lucrezia was born and when she died, I am posting about her on the date of her mother's death, 24 November.\nLucrezia Borgia was the daughter of Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia, later Pope Alexander VI, and his mistress Giovanna dei Cattanei, known as \"Vannozza.\"* Born on 18 April 1480, Lucrezia was raised in Rome, spending much of her girlhood in the household of Adriana del Mila, her father's cousin.\nShe was noted for her educational achievements--a contemporary reported that she spoke Spanish, Greek, Italian, French, and Latin and that she could compose poetry in these languages as well. The household was joined by Giulia Farnese, who had married Adriana del Mila's son, Orso Orsini, in 1489; Giulia became Lucrezia's friend and companion, but she also became Rodrigo Borgia's mistress.\nA portrait said to represent\nVanozza Cattanei,\nmother of Lucrezia Borgia\nRodrigo looked to his native Spain for Lucrezia's future (and his own political needs), arranging her betrothal in 1491 to Don Juan de Centelles, lord of Val D'Agora in Valencia, and then, when the first contract was annulled, to Don Gaspare d'Aversa, who was also living in Valencia. But that betrothal was also broken when, after his election as pope in 1492, her father arranged for her marriage to Giovanni Sforza; their marriage was celebrated on 12 June 1493.\nUnsettled by Charles VIII's threatened invasion of Italy and by \"Vatican intrigues,\" the bridegroom left Rome after his marriage and returned, without his bride, to Pesaro for the summer and fall.\nBut Giovanni returned to Rome in November, no doubt to ensure his receipt of his thirteen-year-old bride's dowry. In 1494 Lucrezia finally left Rome for Pesaro, where she was living when Charles VIII's threatened invasion became a reality.\nShe returned to Rome in the autumn of 1495, acting as hostess for her father at the papal court. But in the changed world of Italian politics, Alexander VI no longer had need of a Sforza alliance, and he decided that Lucrezia's marriage should be annulled on the basis of nonconsummation.\nGiovanni angrily rejected the annullment, implying as it did his impotence, and appealed to his uncle Ludovico Sforza for aid. Ludovico was in need of papal support as he fought against Charles VIII, and, fearful that he could lose Milan to the French, proposed a test for Giovanni--he could prove the validity of his marriage if he consummated it, publicly, in the presence of members of both the Borgia and Sforza families.\nAfter Giovanni rejected this proposal, Ludovico then suggested that Giovanni prove his virility in front of just one person, but again the proposal was angrily refused. Giovanni, for his part, reminded the pope and his uncle that his first wife, Maddalena Gonzaga, had died in childbirth; under those circumstances, he argued, there could be little question of his ability to consummate a marriage. He charged that Alexander wanted to dissolve the marriage because Alexander wanted his daughter for himself.\nGiovanni's angry charge of incest was almost certainly untrue, but it has become an indelible part of the Lucrezia's unsavory reputation nonetheless. It is also interesting to note, here, that accusations of incest form a regular part of attacks on powerful women as a way of discrediting them--Eleanor of Aquitaine was accused of having such a relationship with her uncle, Raymond of Poitiers, for example, and Margaret Beaufort's intense emotional connection with her son drew criticism and suspicion as well. Marguerite of Navarre was also accused of incest with her brother, Francis I, again because of their emotional connections. (The frequency of such claims about women made by their political enemies puts such accusations against Anne Boleyn in an interesting context, doesn't it?)\nIf a woman failed to show her emotional connection to members of her family, a woman like Caterina Sforza could be constructed as an unwomanly monster, but intimate and loving demonstrations of affection could also be used against a woman, raising the suggestion of \"neurotic\" and \"obsessive\" attachment (in the case of Margaret Beaufort) or, as with Lucrezia Borgia, incest.\nAlexander, instead of expressing outrage at his son-in-law's accusations, replied to Giovanni with concern for the young man's \"honorable\" reputation: Giovanni could \"admit\" his impotence, even while everyone acknowledged it was just a temporary condition, perhaps one caused by an evil spell of some sort, or he could agree to an annulment simply by claiming that his marriage was invalid because of Lucrezia's previous betrothals.\nGiovanni agreed to have the legality of his marriage examined, but a commission charged with the investigation found no irregularities, despite Alexander VI's obvious desire to have them found. The only remaining argument was nonconsummation, and under pressure from his uncle Ludovico and with financial inducements from the pope, Giovanni Sforza finally agreed. On 18 November 1497 he signed a \"confession\" of impotence, and on 22 December Lucrezia Borgia's first marriage was formally annulled. She was declared to be intacta, that is, a virgin. (Another good example of \"traditional marriage,\" huh?)\nSeveral new alliances were immediately suggested for her, including one with Ottaviano Sforza, Caterina Sorza's son. But on 29 June 1498 she was married by proxy to Alfonso of Aragon, the illegitimate son of Alfonso II, king of Naples, who made his son duke of Bisceglie. The formal ceremony took place in Rome in July. When Alexander VI and his son allied themselves with the French, who planned to invade Naples, Alfonso left Rome without his wife. Shortly thereafter, Alexander VI appointed his daughter governor of Spoleto and Foligno.\nJust nineteen years old, Lucrezia took on the administrative tasks her new role demanded. Apparently reassured of his father-in-law's intentions, Alfonso reclaimed his wife, and the two returned to Rome, where Lucrezia gave birth to a son, whom she named Rodrigo after her father. In July of 1500 Alfonso was attacked by assassins in Rome. As he did not die (Lucrezia's ministrations are credited with his recovery), on 18 August he was strangled in his bed, probably under Cesare Borgia's orders. Lucrezia was dismissed from Rome, her letters from this period signed La Infelicissima--\"the most unhappy of ladies.\"\nBy July of 1501 Louis XII of France and Ferdinand of Aragon had defeated Naples. While her father campaigned in Italy, Lucrezia returned to Rome to administer his affairs. But Lucrezia's remarriage could provide her father another political ally, and so a third husband was found for her, Alfonso d'Este, Isabella d'Este's brother, son and heir to the duke of Ferrara. After initially opposing the alliance, the duke was compelled to agree. Lucrezia and Alfonso d'Este were married on 30 December 1501.\nLucrezia Borgia, 1518,\nportrait by Dossi Dossi\nContemporary accounts of Lucrezia, just twenty-one years old at the time of her third marriage, counter the more salacious and vicious gossip that still surrounds her name. Her new sister-in-law viewed Lucrezia with suspicion; nevertheless, Isabella d'Este's agent reported to her that Lucrezia was \"full of charm and grace,\" and one of Isabella's ladies-in-waiting, too, grudgingly admitted that if Lucrezia \"is not noticeably beautiful, she stands out thanks to the sweetness of her expression.\" A chronicler in Ferrara reported, \"She is full of tact, prudent, intelligent, animated, pleasing, very amiable. . . . Her quick mind makes her eyes sparkle.\"\nDespite d'Este fears and Isabella's suspicions, Lucrezia proved to be an excellent wife--she promptly bore her husband four children, including his son and heir Ercole, who succeeded his father as duke of Ferrara in 1534.\nAfter Alexander VI's death, Lucrezia no longer played a political role in Italy, but she established numerous charitable foundations in Ferrara and, like her sister-in-law's court at Mantua, Ferrara became a center for artists and intellectuals.\nLucrezia Borgia died on 24 June 1519, just ten days after giving birth to a stillborn daughter. Lucrezia was thirty-nine years old.\nThere is a great deal about Lucrezia Borgia in popular culture, from historical dramas like The Borgias to novels. But there are good biographies as well. Although it was originally published in Italian in 1939, I still like Maria Bellonci's The Life and Times of Lucrezia Borgia, trans. Bernard and Barbara Wall; it's out of print, but it has been reprinted so many times that there are lots of used copies available. I also recommend Sarah Bradford's 2004 Lucrezia Borgia: Life, Love and Death in Renaissance Italy.\n*This post has been adapted from The Monstrous Regiment of Women: Female Rulers in Early Modern Europe (Palgrave Macmillan).\nLabels: Caterina Sforza, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabella d'Este, Lady Margaret Beaufort, Lucrezia Borgia, Marguerite of Angouleme, traditional marriage, women and politics\nBillie Jean King, Tennis Legend--and Inspiration\nBillie Jean King (born 22 November 1943)\nDuring her long career as a tennis player, Billie Jean King won six Wimbledon championships and four U.S. Open titles--to that, she added four Wimbledon doubles titles and a couple of U.S. Championship doubles titles, as well as singles and doubles championships at the French Open, the Australian Open . . . Well, you get the picture.\nBillie Jean King forty years ago,\non the occasion of her 1975\nWinbledon victory\nBut for those of us of a certain age, what we will never forget is that day in 1973 (September 20!) when Billie Jean King beat the crap out of Bobby Riggs in an exhibition match in the Astrodome that was billed as \"The Battle of the Sexes.\"\nThe staging was grandiose and silly (King entered the arena carried on a golden litter by buff and nearly naked men, Riggs pulled by a rickshaw powered by young women dubbed \"Bobbie's Bosom Buddies\"), but the event itself--just the idea of the event--was thrilling. So much so that even a non-sports-enthusiast like me can remember the match like it was yesterday.\nWhen King won that match, she won a victory for women and gender equality. And then, after she was outed in 1981, she became an important activist for LGBT rights.\nHere's a link to Don Van Natta's extended article, for ESPN, on the Riggs-King match, \"The Matchmaker.\"\nAnd here's a link to Billie Jean King's Makers video, Billie Jean King: Champion and Activist. In this video, she talks about her playing career, her decision to have an abortion, and her (forced) coming out.\nUpdate, September 2017: A new film, Battle of the Sexes, has been released, focusing on the King-Riggs match. As noted by Manohla Dargis in her review for The New York Times, \"Every so often an exceptionally capable woman has to prove her worth by competing against a clown.\"\nThe film's release has been accompanied by a spate of articles on the match in addition to reviews of the film. I recommend the piece in The Daily Beast, Katie Baker's \"The Battle of the Sexes: How Billie Jean King Beat a Misogynist Pig.\"\nLabels: Billie Jean King, women and sports\nSojourner Truth: \"I did not run off, for I thought...",

        "title": "Research: Rating Action: Moody's assigns first-time B2 rating to Sunriver Holding Group Company Limited - Moody's",
        "raw_content": "Sunriver Holding Group Company Limited\nCredit Opinion: Sunriver Holding Group Company Limited: Update to credit analysis\nResearch Announcement: Moody's - Most rated high-yield Chinese companies can withstand modest RMB depreciation\nAnnouncement: Moody's: Risks are rising for Asia's high-yield bond market\nAnnouncement: Moody\u2019s: Chinese high-yield issuers to experience refinancing challenges in 2019 (Chinese)\nAnnouncement: Moody's: Liquidity for Asian high-yield companies tighter than during global financial crisis\nMoody's assigns first-time B2 rating to Sunriver Holding Group Company Limited\nHong Kong, February 05, 2018 -- Moody's Investors Service has assigned a first-time B2 corporate family rating (CFR) to Sunriver Holding Group Company Limited (Sunriver). The rating outlook is stable.\n\"Sunriver's B2 CFR reflects its track record of real estate development in the province of Anhui, as well as its above peer-average profitability,\" says Cedric Lai, a Moody's Assistant Vice President and Analyst.\nProperty development is Sunriver's largest business segment, contributing 60%-65% of its total gross profit of RMB1.4-2.1 billion during 2015-16. Moody's forecasts gross profit from the property development segment will contribute around 60% of its total gross profit of RMB2.6-3.2 billion over the next 12-18 months.\nSunriver operated nine residential real estate projects at the end of September 2017, with a focus in Anhui Province, mainly in the cities of Hefei and Fuyang.\nThe company achieved high gross development margins of 32%-40% in the last two years because of its low-cost land bank and strong average selling price growth in Hefei and Fuyang. These gross profit margins are high when compared with Moody's B-rated Chinese property developers. Moody's forecasts Sunriver's gross profit margin will remain around 33%-34% over the next 12-18 months, supported by continued strong growth in average selling prices in both Hefei and Fuyang during 2016 and 2017.\nAt the end of September 2017, the company had total saleable resources with a gross floor area of around 10.6 million square meters from nine residential projects, which will support the company's sales and cash flow generation in the next two years. The company does not plan to significantly expand its land bank beyond these resources, and plans to instead use its property sales cash flow to fund the expansion of its tourism segment. The company did not have any outstanding unpaid land premium as of September 2017.\nSunriver's infrastructure construction segment provides modest business diversification and does not negatively impact the company's credit profile, as it does not have material debt funding needs. Infrastructure construction is the company's second largest business segment with an operating track record that dates back to 2002. The segment contributed about 17%-24% of Sunriver's total gross profit during 2015-16. Moody's expects the contribution will decline to 11%-13% in next 12-18 months given the expanding tourism segment.\nThe segment undertakes under engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects such as toll roads, bridges and municipal roads, primarily within Anhui Province. The company had 46 projects as of September 2017 which will support the segment's revenue over the next 12 to 18 months.\n\"Sunriver's B2 CFR is constrained by its small scale, geographic concentration, debt-funded expansion into relatively new tourism businesses as well as limited financial flexibility because of its high level of secured borrowings,\" adds Lai, also Moody's Lead Analyst for Sunriver.\nThe company's scale is small when compared with its B-rated peers -- as measured by revenue of around RMB7.1 billion in 2016 -- although Moody's forecasts revenue to increase to around RMB10 billion in the next 12-18 months.\nSunriver's geographic concentration risk is high, with a high proportion of revenue derived from its real estate development and construction business in Anhui Province. While net population inflow into Hefei and Fuyang will support the company's sales, regulatory tightening could be stepped up if prices continue to rise rapidly in these cities.\nSunriver is expanding its another core business by developing and acquiring tourism attractions, raising both its debt funding needs and execution risk. The company plans to develop three new tourist attraction areas around Hefei and Fuyang as well as to acquire mature tourist attraction areas, with total capital expenditure and investments for the segment estimated at RMB2.5 billion per annum in the next 2-3 years. The company completed a self-developed project at Mount Qiyun Tourism Project in 2017 and is expected to complete the Fuyang Yinghuai Ecological Tourism Project by 2018.\nSunriver also acquired three mature tourism attractions, namely Fenghuang Ancient Town and Huanglong Dong and Danxia Mountain in 2016-17.\nSunriver's B2 CFR is also constrained by its private company status, less diversified funding access and weaker corporate governance when compared with listed companies.\nSunriver's liquidity is adequate, as shown by its cash/short-term debt of 193% as of the end of June 2017. The company has raised corporate onshore bonds, including private placements, of around RMB2.85 billion since 2013.\nThe company's debt leverage ratio -- as measured by revenue to adjusted debt -- was at 74% in 2016 and 117% in 2015. Moody's expects the company's debt leverage will trend towards 65%-70% in the next 12-18 months, in the absence of aggressive land acquisition spending. Such levels position it appropriately at the B2 rating level.\nMoody's expects Sunriver's interest coverage -- as measured by adjusted EBIT to interest -- will weaken to around 1.6x over the next 12-18 months, from 2.4x in 2016, as the company's gross profit margins will partly offset an increase in interest expenses arising from its increasing debt level.\nThe stable rating outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Sunriver will maintain (1) its gross margins for its real estate development and construction businesses; (2) an adequate liquidity position; and (3) a prudent approach towards its investments in the tourist segment without substantially escalating its debt level.\nThe rating could be upgraded if Sunriver improves its debt leverage while achieving healthy contracted sales growth, and demonstrates prudence in expanding its tourism segment. Credit metrics indicative of a possible upgrade include (1) revenue/adjusted debt above 80%; and (2) adjusted EBIT/interest cover above 2.0x-2.5x on a sustained basis.\nThe rating could be downgraded if there is a deterioration in Sunriver's debt leverage or liquidity position, such as increased refinancing risk. Deteriorating credit metrics that could trigger a ratings downgrade include (1) revenue/adjusted debt below 55%-60%; or (2) adjusted EBIT/interest cover below 1x on a sustained basis.\nThe principal methodology used in this rating was Homebuilding And Property Development Industry published in January 2018. Please see the Rating Methodologies page on www.moodys.com for a copy of this methodology.\nFounded in 2002, Sunriver Holding Group Company Limited is a privately owned company with its headquarters in Hefei, Anhui Province in China. It engages in real estate, construction, tourism and cultural businesses in China. As of June 2017, it had nine property development projects with an aggregate gross floor area of 8,435,522 square meters. The company was 82.4% owned by its chairman, Mr. Yu Faxiang and his brother Mr. Yu Shuixiang as of October 1, 2017.\nCedric Lai",

        "title": "Spiritual Ecology of the New Planet | MOTHER EARTH NEWS",
        "raw_content": "Spiritual Ecology of the New Planet: Seeing Nature as More Than a Resource\nSpiritual ecology calls us to dismantle the powerful defense mechanisms we have developed against our impulse to listen to the sacred in our world.\nAwe and mystery are so vital to the human experience of the natural world that without them we are doomed to treat nature as little more than a resource, a science or a playground for recreation alone.\nPhoto by Fotolia/Irochka\nAn Altar in the Wilderness, by Kaleeg Hainsworth (Rocky Mountain Books, 2014), lays forth a spiritual ecology that acknowledges our natural surroundings as sacred and communicative and questions our self-appointed role as stewards and destroyers of natural beauty.\nCover courtesy of Rocky Mountain Books\nAn Altar in the Wilderness, by Kaleeg Hainsworth (Rocky Mountain Books, 2014) is grounded in the literary, philosophical, mystical and historical teachings of the spiritual masters of both East and West, outlining the human experience of the sacred in nature. The spiritual ecology described here is fully engaged with the wilderness beyond our backyard. It is an ecology that takes in nature as \u201cred in tooth and claw\u201d and offers a way forward in the face of accelerating climate change. This manifesto also challenges our modern self-conception as dominators or stewards of the natural world, claiming these roles emerged from Western industrial history and are directly responsible for the environmental damage and alienation from nature we see today.\nSacrament and Ecology\nThe first time I realized that the universe had something to say to me, I was 12 years old and hiking in the Kananaskis region of the Rocky Mountains. My family and I had spent a long weekend trekking to a remote lake high in the alpine, reached only by a steep shale traverse up a mountain pass. The pass presented itself only at the end of an already long day of hiking and climbing it seemed to take forever. When the trail levelled, however, and the view opened, my eyes widened at the sight waiting for us. An alpine meadow stretched as far as I could see, flanked by two snowy peaks and crammed with red paintbrushes, purple crocuses, blue forget-me-nots and shooting stars. The wildflowers were bright with sun under a wide blue sky and swaying this way and that in the haphazard breezes from the slopes. There are moments in life that are different from any other; they seem fixed in time and history, like waypoints in a journey. We arrive at them without warning, stumbling, and depart a different person with new purpose, with transformed vision and self-revelation. I had seen such beauty before, but in this moment I suddenly felt like Keats\u2019s \u201cWatcher of the skies / When a new planet swims into his ken.\u201d\nWhat I had stumbled into as a dorky pre-teen boy was indeed a new planet, not a different one, but I saw this planet through eyes of wonder and awe. I remembered a quote I saw on a greeting card as a boy that claimed, \u201cIf we would see this world as the angels do, we would be ravished and enraptured as the angels are.\u201d I was seeing like his angels and wondering how I could have missed until now the radiant inner world around me. I say inner world, but perhaps inter-world would be a better spatial designation. This world, of which I had known only the natural part until now, was as much a revelation of individual elements as one of a complex network of relatedness. Each flower seemed to proclaim itself, but in relation to all the other flowers and the scenery in general. Everything around me was communicating and I felt invited to join the conversation. \u201cIt is a blessed thing,\u201d observed John Muir, \u201cto go free in the light of this beautiful world, to see God playing upon everything as on an instrument, His fingers upon the lightning and torrent, on every wave of sea and sky, and every living thing, making all together sing and shine in sweet accord, the one love-harmony of the Universe.\u201d\nThis \u201csee[ing] God playing upon everything as on an instrument\u201d is essentially seeing the world as sacramental and is vital to spiritual ecology. I know well that the word \u201csacrament\u201d is most often associated with Christianity and it certainly has a lot of baggage that goes with it. But spiritual ecology, indeed spirituality in general, is nothing without it. Simply put, a sacrament is something that reveals the sacred. The alpine flowers I witnessed in the Kananaskis were a sacrament, as was the wind in that valley. Perhaps to the flowers and the wind I was a sacrament too. Everything was communicating something of itself, and that something was inherently sacred.\nIf We Listen, We Thrive\nThe key message here is that nature is communicating constantly. The genius of Indigenous spirituality is that it understands this and listens. The \u201cvoices\u201d of the great bear or the caribou, the salmon or the eagle, are vitally important to survival; indeed, these voices speak to us and can even help reveal our identities to us. In Eric Collier\u2019s classic memoir Three Against the Wilderness, about being a pioneering family in the Chilcotin region of British Columbia, there is a description of a wise old First Nations woman with whom he converses about where to settle and how. In this wonderful piece of reportage, we have a first-hand picture of the kind of wisdom these Native peoples, so much a part of the land, possess:\nTucked away within the recesses of Lala\u2019s wise old mind was a veritable storehouse of knowledge concerning the land as it was when the white man first came to it. Though she knew nothing of biology as printed in any book, the everyday chores of an era when she and the others of her tribe were entirely reliant upon the wildlife resources of the land had brought her into almost daily contact with the complex laws of Nature. Lala knew well of the seven kind years and the seven lean years, and her knowledge was not gleaned from a Bible. The interplay of the cycles that have such paramount bearing upon the fortunes of all wildlife communities was as familiar to Lala as the letters of the alphabet to a child of civilization. If Lala\u2019s biological knowledge came to her from the campus of the wilderness itself, she could not perhaps have attended a better school of learning.\nI wish the churches would listen more to this kind of spirituality. Indeed, I wish the churches would listen more in general! Father Alexander Schmemann, a well-known Russian theologian, asked in one of his journals, \u201cwhat is there to talk about so much in Christianity, and what for?\u201d What colonial spirituality needs to learn (among other things) from the faith traditions of the First Nations is simply this: stop telling people things and listen to what the natural world is telling us. Theirs is a journey from a human isolation to a harmony with the natural world. I have always picked up a sense from their stories and rituals that it is nature, and not humans, that is the real authority. It speaks to us, and if we listen, we thrive; if we do not, we die. One thing is clear: listening is love in action. We must love the world God created and lean in to hear his voice in it.\nPlenty of Other Nice Valleys\nI recently overheard a revealing conversation between a young engineer and an older builder/contractor at the racquet club where I play squash. They had just finished their game and were chatting within my earshot outside the court. The older man asked what the other\u2019s summer plans were. The engineer replied that he was heading into the interior of British Columbia to work on a new dam. The older man offered congratulations to the engineer on his first major gig since graduating from engineering school at university. The engineer, however, was more reserved. He said he had visited the place where they were going to build the dam and he was struck by the beauty of the valleys and forests that would soon be submerged by the new lake he would help to create. The other man was dismissive in his reply, telling him this was a necessary loss for progress, adding that \u201cthere are too many wacky environmentalists getting in the way anyway.\u201d But the engineer had more to say. He agreed the dam needed to be built to meet the power needs of British Columbians and the Americans who would be buying some of the power generated by it. But he returned again to how beautiful this valley actually was. He spoke as if haunted by it, as if a voice from the valley were calling to him and he yearned to listen but felt he couldn\u2019t.\n\u201cPlenty of other nice valleys, though,\u201d the contractor said, and with that the young engineer jumped back with both feet into his life path. He was an engineer, after all, and couldn\u2019t get distracted by these things.\nThe older man was right, of course. There are plenty of other nice valleys, and it is a ludicrous position to suggest that we not build a dam (and therefore withhold the jobs and the revenues it will bring) just because something is beautiful. What really struck me, though, was the contrast between the pragmatic voice of progress and the still, small voice speaking to the conscience of the engineer. The pragmatism held all the power, but really the small voice was, and is in general, a reaction to the more primal human sense of responsibility to the natural world. In other words, the older man\u2019s pragmatism was used to quell the younger one\u2019s innate desire to listen to what the valley he was about to help submerge had to say. It is far from ludicrous to suggest that something be preserved for its beauty. There may be more nice valleys, but none are this nice valley.\nIn fact, this nice valley is the only one of its kind in the universe. We have developed powerful defence mechanisms against, and justifications to subdue, our impulse to listen to the sacred in our world. But it is naive to think that beauty is a luxury we can really afford to sacrifice for energy. What if this engineer followed his heart into the beauty speaking to him from the valley? Remember how Native spirituality listens to nature as a course of survival? It is very reasonable to say that if he had followed it, he might have found other ways to generate power or perhaps discovered a reason why the valley was crucial to the ecosystems around it. Who knows? But listening to the voice calling us to deeper engagement in any course of life is always better than the defences and justifications we throw up to ignore it. I\u2019m not saying don\u2019t build dams, and I, like anyone, support jobs and revenue. I\u2019m saying that the whole thrust of modern Western life ignores, and is manufactured to ignore, spiritual ecology with its sacramental vision. I\u2019m saying that we are so inoculated to the sacred voices of nature that we consider them either imaginary or irrelevant or both. And finally, I\u2019m saying that listening will certainly make us vulnerable to change, but what we hear will only benefit us in the long run.\nReprinted with permission from An Altar in the Wilderness by Kaleeg Hainsworth and published by Rocky Mountain Books, 2014.",

        "raw_content": "Landlords and tenants We Provide Tailored And Innovative Solutions.\nLandlords & Tenants Solicitors Scotland | Property Lawyers Glasgow\nMany people often decide that as an alternative to purchasing their own home, they will enter into a relationship with a landlord as their tenant. Equally, many people view the prospect of offering accommodation to would-be tenants in exchange for a guaranteed income as a very attractive proposition. The relationship between a landlord and tenant is a very unique one, that need not be complex.\nHere we provide an overview of what it means to be either a landlord or a tenant, and what the process of entering into this kind of relationship involves. At Miller Samuel Hill Brown, we have a specialist team of Property lawyers who are ready to assist you in understanding your role as a landlord or a tenant. We will work in partnership with you so to ensure that you are aware of all of your respective rights and responsibilities.\nWhat is the relationship between a landlord and tenant?\nBoth landlords and tenants are private individuals who agree to a set of conditions under a written document, called a Tenancy Agreement, that provides each person(s) with a set of rights and responsibilities. The owner of a private property, i.e. a landlord, is offering someone else, i.e. a would-be tenant, to live in that property for a set period of time in exchange for monthly payment. This sum of money is the \u2018rent\u2019.\nIn signing a Lease, both a Landlord and their Tenant are required to abide by the terms set down in it for the duration of the tenancy. It is essentially a contract that is agreed between the two parties, but is specific to the use of the property in question.\nWhat is involved in being a Landlord?\nA landlord is someone who will be offering accommodation to would-be tenants in a flat/house that they own, in exchange for monthly payment of rent. There are a number of things that need to be considered before they start to operate as a Landlord, and keep in mind when taking on tenants:\nRegister with the Local Authority\nBefore advertising a property as being available to rent, a Landlord must be registered with their Local Authority. It is very important that this is done as soon as possible: if they fail to register as a Landlord before they accept a tenant into their property then they are doing so illegally. This can result in a substantial fine being issued against an unregistered Landlord.\nDeciding on what kind of tenancy to offer\nIt is not enough for a Landlord to want to offer a tenancy - they will need to set out the kind of tenancy that is available, and comply with the related rules and regulations.\nThe most common kind of tenancy offered by Landlords is a Short Assured Tenancy (SAT) which will be for a period of at least six months. Landlords that offer SATs are required by law to provide tenants with a Tenant Information Pack which sets out:\nThe condition of the property;\nThe rights and responsibilities of both parties; and\nThe details of the Tenancy Agreement\nDeciding on how many people to offer tenancy to\nOffering a tenancy to more than one person means that Landlords must comply with other rules. Arguably the most important is the need to apply for a House in Multiple Occupation Licence (HMO) from the Local Authority.\nApplying for this Licence means that the Local Authority will inspect your premises to assess a number of things before the licence is issued, including: (i) someone\u2019s suitability as an individual to be granted an HMO; (ii) how the premises is maintained and; (iii) the condition of the premises itself.\nObserving the rules\nWhen a Landlord accepts a tenant into their property under a Tenancy Agreement, they then need to comply with the rules. This will include taking responsibility, as is normally the case, for maintaining and repairing the property, e.g. ensuring hot water and heating is available; keeping a note of all gas and electricity checks, and providing fire resistant furniture for the property.\nWhat is involved in being a tenant?\nAs a tenant is taking up residence in a privately owned property in exchange for payment of rent, they do have a number of rights which their Landlord must observe. However they too have a number of responsibilities:\nMaking Rent Payments\nIt is a tenant\u2019s responsibility to make the regular and timeous payment of rent when it falls due. Depending on the terms of the Tenancy Agreement this may either be due weekly or monthly, although monthly rent tends to be more common. If a tenant fails to make payment of rent as it falls due, this can have implications for them and a Landlord may be entitled to take measures to get payment of this.\nLandlords are entitled by law to evict tenants that fail to make rental payments, provided that they follow the correct process.\nCaring for a property\nIn exchange for being given entitlement to stay in a property a tenant is expected to keep the property in good condition. This includes keeping the property clean and not intentionally causing damage to the property. It is also a tenant\u2019s responsibility to report any damage or other problems that arise e.g. leaking of water or a problem with the heating to the landlord.\nThe important point to remember is that the Tenant-Landlord relationship is essentially a type of contract between individuals: accommodation in exchange for payment. There are a number of rules that apply to being a Tenant or Landlord and it is advisable that you are familiar with these before you enter into this kind of relationship.\nContact our Landlords and Tenants Lawyers Scotland\nHere at Miller Samuel Hill Brown we have experts in property law. If you are considering becoming a landlord or tenant, or are unsure of your rights and responsibilities, please contact us. We are here to help.

In others, 1 Co. 14:34 & 35 is quoted and the women are not even allowed to speak. Some local bodies quote Romans 16:1 & 2 and use that scripture to allow women to serve (be a deaconess). In many cases, these same congregations limit the women to certain areas of service.\nA closer look at scripture might shed some light on this subject. If we look in Paul\u2019s letter to the Galatians (3:25-28), we see him explaining that we are no longer under the law. Paul explains that, in Christ, we find salvation and that salvation is the same for all. He further explains that, through that salvation, we are all sons of God. If we can agree that all of us receive the same salvation, then we can proceed to look at what that means.\nIn Acts 2:38 and elsewhere in scripture, we are told that, if we are children of God then we will be given the gift of the Holy Spirit. In 1 Corinthians 12:13, we are told that there is one Spirit and that we are of one body. In Galatians 5:22 & 23, we are given a list of \u201cfruit of the Spirit\u201d so that we are able to tell if someone has that Spirit.\nAll of this leads to one question and that question, to any congregation, is \u201cwho is leading the church?\u201d If you say that God is leading the church, more than likely, you will probably say that God leads the church through the Holy Spirit. If you agree with that, then maybe you will see that, since we already saw how there is only one Spirit and it is given to both male and female, women should be able to have a leadership role in the church. If you do not agree with the statement that God is leading the local church, through the Holy Spirit, then that leads back to our original question. In that case you must admit that it is men leading the church. If that is the case, you must also realize that men can make mistakes but God does not. Usually, when men are in control, that leads to a bunch of rules and those rules can vary and change as needed.\nA final thought takes us back to the Old Testament and the book of Judges. In Judges Chapter 4, we see that Deborah was leading Israel. (Some versions use the word judging in place of leading.) It even goes on to say that she held court to settle disputes among the people. We must admit that the Israelites were the chosen people of God. We also see from this scripture that Deborah not only led the people but she did so through a very difficult time. We see that she proclaimed the word of God (in verses 6 & 7) and that she led the people to victory. We further see, at the end of Chapter 5, that under Deborah\u2019s leadership, the land had peace for forty years.\nTherefore, if a woman could lead Israel, how is it that some can say that women cannot even lead a local congregation of God\u2019s people?\nAnother example of where God used women to lead His people can be found in Acts 21:9 where we see that there were four women prophets in the city of Caesarea. Since God had made them prophets, should we judge whether He will use women in other roles in His church.",

        "raw_content": "Blu-ray Association: \u20184K UltraHD in consideration for Blu-ray\u2019\nWhile optical discs like CD and DVD might lose popularity over streaming media, the Blu-ray format is thriving. That\u2019s thanks to the fact that the discs named after the blue laser beam that reads the digital information from the round plastic slices are able to hold high definition content. Many users around the world still don\u2019t have access to high-speed internet connections, so Blu-ray is a good way for them to watch HD content. But the world is moving on and 4K or Ultra High Definition is rapidly gaining popularity.\nUltra HD promises two times the resolution of HD which means increased picture quality, especially on large screens. It also means that more storage capacity is required to store the content. Blu-ray currently offers about 50 GB per disc, but discs up to 128 GB are commercially available. That could be sufficient for Ultra HD movies and therefore it would make sense to put Ultra HD content on Blu-ray discs. The Blu-ray Association (BDA) also had this idea and they have said in an article on Techhive.com that Ultra HD on Blu-ray is in consideration. To move forward, the BDA has created a working group that has to find out if it\u2019s really technically feasible, if there\u2019s a market for it and how it would impact the existing installed base of Blu-ray players when an Ultra HD movie is inserted.\nAll with all points to consider and that\u2019s exactly what they do. In the meanwhile Sony Pictures has announced on CES that it will start selling Blu-ray discs that are labelled as mastered in Ultra HD. These discs are in the HD format but Sony claims that you\u2019ll see extra details due to the fact that Ultra HD equipment is used.",

(Feb 22)\nThis was our annual event to highlight the campaign to find deserving people who live and work across the borough. Once again the shopping centre gave us the space free and shoppers were eager to find out more about the awards, some even making nominations on the spot.\nWhile the stories about nominees are appearing in the Gazette and on our website each week, many people said it was great to be able to see what was involved and ask questions from the campaign team.\nMum Sue Richards, from Hanwell, said: \"I nominated someone last year so I know what it means to people. I know they don't do it for the recognition, but I think it's important that the community know what fantastic work so many people are doing.\"\nMany families were happy to stop and talk, if only for the sweets dished out to their kids by the UWL. Jane Harrison, Gazette reporter and campaign co-ordinator, said: \"It's really important to inter-act with people and explain what these awards mean. Sometimes the public can feel so remote from what we are trying to do. It's hard work, but worth it when you get such a positive response.\"\nDavid Lane, director of external relations for the University of West London. said: \u201cSaturday\u2019s event was a great success. The Broadway Shopping Centre has a huge footfall which gave our team of student ambassadors the opportunity to engage with hundreds of people. As a result, I\u2019m confident that many more award nominations will come in over the coming days and weeks. The Pride in Our People Awards celebrate the local community and the University of West London is honoured to support them.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Game-Winning Stand Just Another Play for Eagles' Defense\nBy Reuben Frank | NBC Sports Philadelphia\nThere were no special instructions. No extraordinary measures taken. Not much was said. Not much needed to be said.\nThe game was on the line. The season was on the line. For the Eagles' defense, it was just another play. The stakes were just incredibly high.\nIt was 4th-and-goal for the Falcons at the Eagles' 2-yard-line in the final seconds Saturday.\nGive up a touchdown, and the season's over. Stop the Falcons and you're one game closer to the Super Bowl.\n\"Our guys, we don't do a whole lot,\" Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said. \"Our guys know what to do, and they have downloaded that software enough that it's a little bit automatic for them.\n\"We also didn't change. We don't surprise the players. What we practiced in our red-zone period is what we played.\"\nThe Falcons had already driven from their own 24-yard-line down to the 2-yard-line.\nTheir quarterback, Matt Ryan, has the fourth-highest passer rating in NFL postseason history, behind Jeff Hostetler and Hall of Famers Kurt Warner and Bart Starr.\nThat's what the Eagles' defense was up against.\n\"At that point, you sort of have to trust the players and the players have to trust the scheme,\" Schwartz said. \"I think you saw a combination of both of those. We didn't feel the need to blitz. Played coverage, played good technique.\"\nThe clock showed 1:05.\nRyan's two favorite receivers, Julio Jones and Mohamad Sanu, both lined up on the right side of the formation, Jones outside with Jalen Mills on him and Sanu in the slot with Malcolm Jenkins covering him in a battle of North Jersey natives.\nRyan took the shotgun snap from center Alex Mack at the 7-yard-line and immediately rolled to his right, retreating to the 10 as he neared the sideline.\nNigel Bradham, lined up as the left linebacker, trampled blocking tight end Levine Tollolo, who had his hands full with Brandon Graham, and ran around guard Wes Schweitzer, giving him an angle on Ryan.\nMeanwhile, Vinny Curry, after getting cut blocked to the ground by Falcons running back Tevin Coleman, quickly bounced back up and began pursuing from Ryan's left.\nRyan pumped once toward Sanu, who was covered by Jenkins. He quickly looked left but saw only Curry closing in. Thanks to the pressure, he had to quickly backpedal back to the 14-yard-line and finally was forced to unload that lob toward Jones at the right sideline in the end zone.\nAt that point, it was up to Mills, who had Jones blanketed, and the rest is history.\nThe ball went through Jones' hands, his feet came down out of bounds anyway, and after an agonizing moment looking for flags, the play was over.\n\"A lot gets made of what Jalen did, rightfully so,\" Schwartz said. \"You're talking about a Pro Bowl, All-Pro receiver, 1-on-1. But Malcolm playing the seven route to Sanu and Rodney (McLeod's) ability to help him leverage that, that was because he's looking for Julio Jones first.\n\"Julio slips, he's looking for Sanu, nowhere to go and now he has to re-rack that thing and by then, Nigel is closing down on him and everything else.\n\"If Malcolm doesn't get that route that he covered, if he doesn't get that covered, nobody's talking about Jalen Mills right now.\"\nMills was physical with Jones but not physical enough to draw a flag. Schwartz said Mills has made huge strides this year with his technique, and on the biggest play of his life, his technique was perfect.\n\"It's one thing to have confidence, but that's just not the sole requirement for the position,\" Schwartz said.\n\"There's a lot of technique that goes along with playing, and I think if you look at that last play, he did a great job of staying square. Meaning his shoulders were perpendicular to the line of scrimmage.\n\"What the receiver there is trying to do is get you turned so he can come back for the ball. He could never get Jalen turned.\"\nMills is 23 years old, a second-year pro, a former seventh-round pick, a first-year starter.\nTo think that he made one of the most historic plays in Eagles postseason history is remarkable.\n\"I think every player makes a big jump from year one to year two, as far as knowledge of scheme and knowledge of opponents and things like that,\" Schwartz said.\n\"(Defensive backs coach Cory) Undlin and Jalen have worked really hard. He's haunted the hallways quite a bit, even on off days this year, just trying to improve his technique. It hasn't been by chance that his technique has gotten better. It's a lot of hard work that's gone into it from a coaching standpoint and from a player's standpoint.\"\nThe bottom line is that this defense has played tremendous football all year.\nAnd with the season on the line, everybody simply went out and did their job. Nothing more, nothing less.\n\"I just think a part of our success is our guys just understand what's asked of them in the schemes,\" Schwartz said.\n\"They communicate well. We don't make a lot of mistakes, mental mistakes, and I think that makes it hard to drive the ball on us.\n\"When you get into those situations where is it's closed quarters and you don't have to defend deep balls, our guys have a good understanding of what opponents are going to do. I was proud of them on that play.\"",

        "raw_content": "Trump's Harsh Message to Immigrants Could Drag on Economy\nEconomists warn that eliminating DACA, along with other steps the Trump administration has taken, such as banning travel from several Muslim nations and proposing cuts to legal immigration, could inflict long-term damage on the economy\nSessions Announces End of DACA Immigration Program\n//www.nbcwashington.com/news/politics/Sessions-DACA-Immigration-Program-Rescinded-442765843.html\nAttorney General Jeff Sessions announced a \"lawful, orderly wind-down\" of the DACA immigration program late Tuesday morning, claiming the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program was an issue best tackled by Congress instead of the executive branch. The program was created by the Obama administration in 2012. (Published Tuesday, Sept. 5, 2017)\nJames Harrison, the owner of a Phoenix-based specialty construction firm, employs three workers protected by an Obama-era immigration program that the Trump administration took steps Tuesday to eliminate .\nShould those workers \u2014 who were brought to the United States illegally as children \u2014 be deported, Harrison doubts he would find other workers to replace them anytime soon.\n\"These are some of my top guys,\" Harrison said. \"They don't drink, they don't do drugs, they don't do anything but work.\"\nHis own grandfather, Harrison said, immigrated to the United States from England without any paperwork.\nTrump's DACA Move Prompts Tears From Calif. Siblings\nAbigail and Ray Tamariz, college students and DACA program applicants, wept on Tuesday as U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the program would end in six months.\nHis on-the-ground viewpoint couldn't be more different from that of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who made the questionable assertion Tuesday that the Obama administration's measure \"denied jobs to hundreds of thousands of Americans by allowing those same jobs to go to illegal aliens.\"\nNearly all economists and most business leaders reject Sessions' view. Ending the program, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, won't boost U.S. employment at a time when an aging workforce and a low jobless rate have left many employers struggling to find skilled workers. Eliminating the program might even cost jobs in the long run, they say.\nThe program allows immigrants who were brought to the United States illegally as children to stay in the United States, attend school and find jobs. Those who benefit are sometimes called \"Dreamers,\" after early proposals in Congress that never passed. President Barack Obama implemented the program in 2012.\nThe administration said the measure will phase out over six months, giving Congress an opportunity to approve a replacement plan.\nMore broadly, economists warn that eliminating DACA, along with other steps the Trump administration has taken, such as banning travel from several Muslim nations and proposing cuts to legal immigration, could inflict long-term damage on the economy. The proposals could discourage potential immigrants, including those with advanced degrees and skills, from entering the United States. Some immigrants already in the U.S. might refrain from starting businesses, analysts say.\n\"It says to immigrants in the United States that you have no certainty in this country,\" said Edward Alden, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. \"That will have economic impacts that will go well beyond the employment circumstances and prospects of the Dreamers themselves.\"\nImmigrants are generally more likely to start companies than are native-born Americans, Alden said. About 40 percent of Silicon Valley companies have had at least one immigrant founder.\nHarrison's company performs sand-blasting work that strips lead paint and mold. He was planning to leave for Houston to take part in recovery work from Hurricane Harvey.\nLast week, Harrison signed a letter , along with about 400 other CEOs, urging the administration to preserve the DACA program. The letter says nearly three-quarters of the top 25 Fortune 500 companies employ some of the roughly 800,000 people protected by the measure.\nMicrosoft, which says it employs at least 39 beneficiaries of the program, urged Congress to approve legislation that would keep the policy before it takes up tax reform.\nStudies have found that the economic damage caused by expelling those protected by the measure would be modest but noticeable. The libertarian Cato Institute estimated it would cost the U.S. economy $215 billion over 10 years, a small drop given that the nation's output is roughly $17 trillion every year.\nBut most economists see immigration generally as an economic boon. That's particularly true as the U.S. ages, which means more Americans are retiring. Those retirements have slowed the growth of the U.S. workforce \u2014 a trend that, in turn, limits the economy's potential expansion.\nThe U.S. economy has expanded at a 2.2 percent annual rate since the Great Recession ended in 2009. President Donald Trump has said he wants to raise that pace to at least 3 percent.\n\"If you want to raise the economy's underlying growth rate, we should be increasing immigration, not reducing it,\" said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics.\nThe Cato study notes that beneficiaries of DACA are similar to the highly-skilled immigrants who are granted H-1B visas to work in the United States. The average beneficiary is 22, has a job, and earns about $34,000 a year, Cato says.\nNearly three-fifths reported finding work after the program was implemented, a 2014 survey found, and 45 percent said they received a pay increase.\nDeporting DACA recipients would reduce Social Security and Medicare tax revenue by $24.6 billion over a decade, according to research by the Immigrant Legal Resource Center.\nLike Harrison, many business owners say they are struggling to fill open jobs.

        "title": "Certificate of Need: Access Denied",
        "raw_content": "Certificate of Need: Access Denied\nSeptember 19, 2011 by Paul Valone 2 Comments\nOne intended purpose of Certificate of Need (CON) laws is to increase medical care accessibility to people by encouraging the expansion of medical facilities into rural areas and by decreasing costs that would prevent people from seeking care. CON laws try to do this by creating committees that oversee the creation and expansion of medical facilities. Existing establishments seeking to expand or individuals wanting to start a new medical practice must submit an application to the CON section of the Department of Health and Human Services which will review the application and decide whether or not the purchases requested are needed in the area. Usually, applications in similar areas are grouped together so that the CON section can decide on which entity, if any, will be allowed to build the requested facility.\nThe argument for Certificate of Need is that improved government planning can both limit costs caused by duplicative services and encourage the development of healthcare facilities in areas with limited access; areas that are typically rural and with poorer populations. However, CON laws have not lived up to their claims\u2014most definitely not in North Carolina.\nThe premise that placing regulatory burdens on the creation of new medical facilities will increase availability of medical services to communities without them is inherently contradictory. By forcing potential medical care providers to go through an application process, CON both delays and discourages the development of new facilities in rural areas. Furthermore, CON laws do not provide any additional incentives to medical providers to locate in areas where medical facilities have determined they cannot raise the revenue to sustain their business. Large established hospitals working through the CON process often bypass the rural access goal of the CON law through a method known as \u2018stacking\u2019. Stacking is a means by which hospitals couple (claiming to serve both) an urban county to an adjacent rural county with lower paying populations in order to maintain their wealthy clientele while allowing their Certificate of Need applications to still seem attractive. By attaching themselves to rural counties, they are able to claim expansions to existing facilities in urban counties benefit members of these rural areas and use this claim to further their application\u2019s chances of approval. However, the new services are still usually located around the urban hospital and remain less accessible to individuals living in rural districts. This method, while legal, significantly weakens the ability of CON laws to expand healthcare to rural areas and discourages physicians from opening their own practices in these rural areas due to competition for CON approval from the stacking hospitals.\nA blatant example of the failure of North Carolina\u2019s Certificate of Need system is illustrated by an attempt by three neurologists to establish an MRI machine in Garner, NC. They would have created a local facility, called Carolina Imaging Associates, to perform MRI\u2019s and claimed they would be able to offer a cheaper price than hospitals in the region. Despite the facility\u2019s potential ability to decrease costs on residents of Garner and surrounding counties, its application was denied. Established hospitals Duke University Health System and WakeMed (the eventual winner of the certificate for the MRI machine) had a vested interest in seeing the effort fail, given the pressure the new facility would have placed on them to lower costs and provide more efficient services.\nIt would seem the current CON system lends itself to crony capitalism by favoring established hospital enterprises that operate as large cartels preventing smaller providers from competing. The fact that the CON advisory board is not fully subject to the Government Ethics Act reinforces that impression of impropriety.\nAn American Medical Association study of individuals suffering from Acute Myocardial Infarctions (AMI), or heart attacks, in states with CON laws versus states without them lends evidence of a CON system\u2019s inability to increase accessibility. Using Medicare patient data, researchers compared the ability of AMI patients to receive revascularization surgery (a surgery which alters blood vessels in order to increase blood flow to organs) to the variance in stringency of state CON laws. In this study, researchers found that the less stringent the CON laws of a state, the greater the chance of being admitted to a hospital that performed revascularization surgery. Conversely, patients in states with more strict CON laws had a higher chance of being transferred to a different hospital authorized to perform the procedure.\nCON advocates might dismiss that point as obvious by claiming that certificates prevent that type of duplicated service without effecting quality of care. However, the study also found that the likelihood of AMI patients receiving revascularization surgery within the first two days of admission was inversely related to the stringency of CON laws. \u201cIn aggregate, these findings indicate that the lower overall use of revascularization in states with certificates of need is primarily driven by the fewer number of hospitals that offer such services.\u201d Or in other words, the decrease in surgeries is the result of the decrease of supply, not demand.\nFurthermore, certificate of need may also limit patient access to more experimental surgery, says the American Medical Association\u2019s report:\nThe impact of certificate of need on the use of early revascularization tended to be greater for patients with a principal diagnosis of subendocardial AMI, a group of patients for whom the clinical benefits of revascularization following AMI are less clear.\nThis suggests that CON especially prevents a new subset of patients from accessing treatment to life-threatening conditions. In almost any circumstance, when faced with death, people will choose to endure most procedures in order to live. Furthermore, by reducing the availability of experimental treatments, CON stifles medical innovation. While some may argue that such treatments encourage doctors to take advantage of the trust of patients who are likely not as well informed as their doctors, many patients are still likely willing to try experimental procedures in which the benefits of success outweigh the costs. In addition, insurance agencies also provide a buffer to overuse of experimental treatments by choosing to not cover treatments that they find ineffective or risky.\nWhile the study does not find a notable difference between mortality rates of states with and without CON laws, the study does find that individuals in CON states are more likely to have to wait longer to receive their surgery. They are also more likely to have to make more trips to possibly multiple hospitals due to the nearest hospital\u2019s lack of a necessary procedure. While this study focuses on Medicare patients, it still illustrates the burden CON laws place on individuals who require specialized care but cannot receive it in timely or convenient fashion due to limitations resulting from CON.\nOne would be hard pressed to argue that North Carolina\u2019s Certificate of Need has effectively increased access to care for individuals living in rural or poor areas. By failing to provide incentives to expand to these areas while adding the significant disincentive of a lengthy and expensive application process and catering to established hospitals, CON creates an even more hazardous environment to the expansion of healthcare to the needy.\nCertificate of Need: Access Denied \u00ab OBX Tea Party News says:\n[\u2026] CON laws have not lived up to their claims\u2014most definitely not in North Carolina.

        "raw_content": "Tags: China | Holds | More | U.S. | Debt | than | Indicated\nChina Holds More U.S. Debt than Indicated\nBy David M. Dickson | Tuesday, 02 March 2010 08:44 AM\nDespite recent government reports that China's holdings of U.S. Treasury debt declined during the second half of last year, the Asian economic giant almost certainly owns far more Treasury securities than official statistics indicate.\nAfter peaking at $801.5 billion, China's holdings of U.S. Treasury securities declined to $755.4 billion at the year's end, dropping the communist power into the position of second-largest holder of Treasury debt after Japan's $768.8 billion, official government data reveal.\nBut these numbers don't tell the whole story.\n\"The U.S. Treasury data almost certainly understate Chinese holdings of our government debt because [the U.S. figures] do not reveal the ultimate country of ownership when [debt] instruments are held through an intermediary in another jurisdiction,\" Simon Johnson, an economics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, told the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission, a bipartisan forum established by Congress in 2000 to monitor the security implications of the U.S. economic relationship with China.\nMr. Johnson told the commission last week that \"a great deal\" of last year's $170 billion increase in Treasury holdings by the United Kingdom \"may be due to China placing offshore dollars in London-based banks\" and then using the funds to purchase Treasury debt.\nMr. Johnson, a former chief economist for the International Monetary Fund, estimated that China owns about $1 trillion in U.S. Treasury securities, or nearly half the $2.37 trillion stock of Treasury debt held by \"foreign official\" owners.\nThe amount of U.S. debt held by China is even higher than that, said Eswar Prasad, an economist at Cornell University.\nUnder the widely held assumption that 70 percent of China's $2.4 trillion in foreign exchange reserves is invested in dollar-denominated bonds, Mr. Prasad told the commission that China probably holds about $1.7 trillion in U.S. government debt.\nThat would include the more than $400 billion in debt issued by U.S. government agencies, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, whose obligations are liabilities of the U.S. government, Mr. Prasad said.\nDerek Scissors, a China scholar at the Heritage Foundation, described as \"unusable\" the official U.S. government data on foreign holdings of Treasury debt.\nChina's mercantilist policies generate \"by far the world's largest balance of payment surpluses\" and contributed to China's $453 billion increase in foreign exchange reserves last year \u2014 surpluses that \"are too large to put anywhere other than the United States. No other country has financial markets capable of absorbing them,\" Mr. Scissors said.\nBut the economists at last week's hearing disagreed about how much leverage China's creditor status commands over the U.S.\nMaj. Gen. Luo Yuan told China's state-run Outlook Weekly magazine last month, shortly after the U.S. detailed new arms sales to Taiwan, that China's \"retaliation should not be restricted to merely military matters\" but also should be \"covering politics, military affairs, diplomacy and economics.\"\n\"We could sanction them using economic means, such as dumping some U.S. government bonds,\" Gen. Luo said.\nMichael Wessel, a member of the U.S.-China commission, began the hearing by noting that China, whose economy expanded by 10.7 percent during 2009, \"emerged from the global recession stronger than ever, expecting its status as America's banker to convey new political power.\"\n\"The United States government, with its fiscal and monetary tools constrained by the recession, cannot easily extricate itself from its growing financial dependence on China,\" he said.\nLeverage, however, works both ways, Mr. Wessel suggested, when he quoted oil magnate J. Paul Getty. \"If you owe the bank $100, that's your problem,\" Getty famously said. \"If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem.\"\nMr. Johnson also downplayed China's leverage.\n\"There is a perception that China's large dollar holdings confer upon that country some economic or political power vis-a-vis the United States,\" said Mr. Johnson, citing the view that Chinese reserves prevent the United States from pressuring China to increase the value of its currency, the yuan, also known as the renminbi. \"This view is incorrect and completely misunderstands the situation.\"\nDaniel Drezner, a professor of international politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, compared today's financial situation between China and the U.S. to the Cold War nuclear situation between the Soviet Union and the U.S.\nHe argued that the \"balance of terror,\" which was connected with the nuclear policy of mutually assured destruction adopted by both adversaries, proved to be \"a source of stability.\"\nMr. Drezner approvingly cited the analogy of Lawrence H. Summers, President Obama's chief economic adviser, who earlier coined the phrase \"the balance of financial terror\" to describe the U.S.-China financial relationship. Such a scary balance, Mr. Drezner told the commission, is \"a source of stability and a source of anxiety.\"\nEconomists generally agree that the yuan is 25 percent to 40 percent undervalued, in large part because Chinese authorities instruct the central bank to purchase massive amounts of dollars in order to peg the yuan's value to the dollar at a level much lower than it otherwise would be, Mr. Johnson said.\nA bipartisan coalition in Congress wants the Treasury Department to label China a currency manipulator in its next report, due April 15. Such a designation would require the Treasury Department to begin negotiations with China to let its currency rise in value and reduce the massive U.S. trade deficit with China, which has exceeded $200 billion for each of the past five years.\nUnder legislation proposed in Congress, currency manipulation would be designated as an unfair trade subsidy and would let U.S. companies seek import duties on Chinese goods.\n\"China is obviously a currency manipulator and should be so labeled by the U.S. Treasury,\" Mr. Johnson said.\nMr. Johnson called Chinese threats to dump dollar-denominated assets a \"paper tiger\" and \"at worst a bluff and at best a way to help the U.S. with a depreciation of the dollar.\"\nMr. Scissors agreed. \"Until the Chinese government is willing to break its dependence on the dollar \u2014 which there is not the slightest indication it is willing to do \u2014 [China] is compelled to buy American bonds and lacks the flexibility to wield any influence,\" he said.\nMr. Johnson said the current U.S. economic situation ensures that a substantial downward movement in the dollar \"would have no noticeable effect on inflation and therefore would not force the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates.\"\nMr. Prasad, however, noted that the damage to the two countries' economies would not be equal.\n\"Any Chinese threat to move aggressively out of Treasuries is a reasonably credible threat as the short-term costs to the Chinese of such an action are not likely to be large,\" he said.\nMoreover, even though China's share of the financing of the soaring U.S. budget deficit has declined over time, its actions still could affect U.S. interest rates, Mr. Prasad said.\n\"Its actions could serve as a trigger around which nervous market sentiments could coalesce,\" Mr. Prasad said. \"Given that there are no clear prospects of reining in exploding deficits and debt in the U.S.,\" he added, \"changes in availability of deficit financing at the margin can have potentially large consequences.\"\nMr. Scissors estimated that U.S. interest rates would rise at most three percentage points.\nHowever, with U.S. national debt set to exceed $14 trillion before the end of the year, a three-percentage-point increase in interest rates would raise the annual cost of paying interest on that debt by more than $400 billion.\nThe commission was told that U.S. policymakers also need to consider the geopolitical and national security implications of operating a fiscal policy that depends on China and other foreign creditors, who collectively hold 50 percent of U.S. publicly held debt.\nClyde Prestowitz, president of the Economic Strategy Institute, recalled for the commission Britain's experience with the United States in 1956 after Britain joined France and Israel in seizing the Suez Canal after Egypt's nationalization of the waterway.\n\"President Eisenhower was furious over the seizure of Suez and informed the Brits that America would ruin the pound sterling if Britain did not withdraw,\" Mr. Prestowitz said. \"And that was the end of the seizure.\n\"Now, America is not Britain and China is not America,\" Mr. Prestowitz said. \"But if that is how your friends can treat you when you owe them, it is not difficult to imagine that less-friendly states could be quite difficult in certain circumstances.\"\nDespite recent government reports that China's holdings of U.S. Treasury debt declined during the second half of last year, the Asian economic giant almost certainly owns far more Treasury securities than official statistics indicate.

        "raw_content": "Georgia Tech Professional Education Dean To Lead Georgia Tech-Savannah Campus\nSource Newsroom: Georgia Tech Professional Education\nDr. Nelson Baker, dean of Georgia Tech Professional Education\nProfessional Education, Higher Education, Georgia Tech, Continuing Education, College, Universities, Savannah, Georgia, Atlanta, Working, Military, k-12, Engineering\nNewswise \u2014 Atlanta (May 23, 2012) -- The Georgia Tech-Savannah campus is transitioning into a hub for professional education, as recommended by the Institute\u2019s task force report last summer. Professional Education Dean Nelson Baker will lead the new direction of the Georgia Tech-Savannah campus. Baker is a nationally recognized leader in award-winning educational technologies designed for and applied to engineering and technical environments. As the dean of Professional Education, Baker is responsible for the oversight of all professional education programs at Georgia Tech and for the distance delivered master\u2019s degree programs. \u201cNelson will provide the leadership and direction needed to guide Georgia Tech-Savannah through this transformation,\u201d said Georgia Tech Provost Rafael Bras. \u201cHe has a strong vision for professional education at Georgia Tech, and Savannah can play a key role through its new mission focused on meeting the needs of the community and industry in the coastal Georgia area.\u201d\nGeorgia Tech-Savannah will begin to offer professional education classes this fall in the areas of OSHA, LEAN Healthcare, supply chain logistics, and project management, with additional programs to be scheduled in the future. The Savannah campus will also continue to deepen engagement with the community via partnerships with industry, other educational institutions, K-12 outreach, and the military. \u201cI\u2019m excited that Georgia Tech is investing in the Savannah campus through our professional education program,\u201d said Baker. \u201cOver the last year, I have learned that the Savannah business community is very dedicated to working with Georgia Tech-Savannah. Our goal is to create new programs that will have a vital and lasting impact in Savannah and the coastal region.\u201d\nIn February 2012, Baker was appointed by Chancellor Huckaby to sit on the University System of Georgia's (USG) Distance Education Task Force to create a framework to better coordinate and guide the future use of distance education for the 35 colleges and universities within the USG system. He currently serves as the President of the International Association of Continuing Engineering Education, and is past-chair of the Georgia Board of Regents Administrative Committee on Public Service and Continuing Education. Baker is a member of the Learning, Instruction and Technology Commission for the University Continuing Education Association, and is an active member of ASEE and ASCE.\nWithin the educational technology domain, Baker has helped create and assess technology used by students in the pursuit of evaluating the impacts on knowledge retention and transfer. These activities have included multi-lingual web-based intelligent simulations for problem solving, intelligent tutors, student models, virtual reality interfaces for education and medical assistants for physicians. Baker\u2019s research interests include intelligent learning environments for engineering, applications of artificial intelligence and other computer-based techniques to solve engineering problems, as well as robotic applications in civil engineering. In addition to his role as dean, Baker serves as the U.S. principal investigator for a FIPSE Atlantis programme grant (P116J090074), an international activity exploring quality management and benchmarking of continuing engineering education programs; and also as a co-principal investigator on a five-year NASA project, Electronic Professional Development Network (ePDN), which develops and delivers STEM content to high school teachers. Baker has a master\u2019s and Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from Carnegie Mellon and bachelor\u2019s degree from Georgia Tech.

        "raw_content": "\u201cAmerican Made\u201d and \u201cVictoria & Abdul\u201d\nDoug Liman\u2019s yarn about drug running and C.I.A. intrigue, starring Tom Cruise, and Stephen Frears\u2019s Queen Victoria bio-pic, starring Judi Dench.\nIn Doug Liman\u2019s film, Tom Cruise is a drug-running pilot recruited by the C.I.A.\nIllustration by Diego Pati\u00f1o\nAt the start of \u201cFargo\u201d (1996), the Coen brothers, keeping the straightest of faces, informed us, \u201cThis is a true story,\u201d and proceeded to unwrap a pack of delicious lies. Moviegoers, of all people, should know that truth is not to be trusted; yet we are credulous creatures, with a sweet tooth for the authentic, and so, week after week, directors continue to reassure us that what we are about to witness is rooted in fact. Two new films maintain the tradition. Doug Liman\u2019s \u201cAmerican Made\u201d declares itself to be \u201cbased on a true story,\u201d while Stephen Frears\u2019s \u201cVictoria & Abdul\u201d offers first the tagline \u201cBased on real events\u201d and then, after a pause, the simpering suffix \u201cMostly.\u201d\nBarry Seal (Tom Cruise), the hero of \u201cAmerican Made,\u201d has a tale to tell, so preposterous that he himself seems unsure whether to believe it. He even warns us, in voice-over, of the direction in which it\u2019s about to veer\u2014\u201cShit gets crazy from here on\u201d\u2014thus firing our interest all the more. We join the craziness in 1978, when Barry is a young pilot with T.W.A. On a nocturnal flight, with his co-pilot dozing beside him and the passengers in repose, he switches off the autopilot and tips the plane into a lurching plunge. Order is soon restored, but, for a few seconds, as the oxygen masks drop down, we race through the possibilities in our minds: Is Barry suicidal? Could he be a terrorist on the sly? Then we realize: No, he\u2019s bored. He does this sort of thing for fun.\nWhat a way to kick off a movie. The scene is suspended between darkness and lightheartedness, and touched with a hint\u2014or a promise\u2014that the latter may prove more dangerous. Barry is an Icarus in aviator shades, and you wonder how high he might dare to soar. Enter Schafer (Domhnall Gleeson), a C.I.A. agent who has noted Barry\u2019s talents, such as they are, and now proposes that he serve his country by flying low over other countries, in Central America, and photographing secluded camps that are said to house Communist guerrillas. Barry agrees to help, and a twin-prop plane is provided. He gets fired at from the ground, and is lauded for what he delivers, but the rewards are meagre, and his wife, Lucy (Sarah Wright), is expecting a child, so how to pump up his pay? Enter three business-minded gentlemen from Colombia, one of them named Pablo Escobar (Mauricio Mej\u00eda), whose argument is that, since Barry is so often, you know, in the neighborhood, why not fly a few packages back to America on their behalf?\nIf you already feel bowed down with plot, be advised that \u201cAmerican Made\u201d is just hitting its stride. Liman and his screenwriter, Gary Spinelli, tend to chivvy us through the narrative with indecent haste, only to pause awhile and savor the scene as if enjoying a fine cigar. The jungle airstrip, for instance, from which Barry must depart with his precious cargo is stomach-heavingly short, and we glimpse the graves of pilots who have come to grief; during Barry\u2019s maiden effort to take off, shredding the treetops as he goes, the camera picks out Escobar and his pals, beside the runway, happily gambling on whether their latest recruit will make it or die. Life, to them, is as light as a banknote. At this point, when I saw the movie, everyone in the theatre laughed at the sight of them, and it\u2019s clear that Liman has got us right where he wants us. The impetuous pace of the film is at one with its moral shamelessness, and, without thinking, we sign up for both.\nNo surprise, then, that as the geopolitics of the time turn sleazy and wild Barry gets sucked in afresh. We wouldn\u2019t want him to be anywhere else. He says yes when asked to run guns down to the Contras, in Nicaragua, and then, later, when asked to run planeloads of Contras back to the United States, for secret military training. And yes again when the drug lords mention that, as a matter of fact, they could use more guns themselves; can Barry possibly spare a few? And so on, and on, until he is making so much lucre that, back at home, in Mena, Arkansas, he and Lucy hardly know where to stash it all. Some of it gets buried in the woods; some sits rotting in the stable, and you have to go around a horse to reach it. There\u2019s a lovely freeze-frame of our hero opening a closet and reeling back as his ill-gotten gains, stuffed into bags, crash down on him. It\u2019s an eighties reboot of the stateroom sequence from \u201cA Night at the Opera\u201d (1935), when Margaret Dumont opens the door and a torrent of waiters, maids, and Marx Brothers falls out. In Liman\u2019s version, the humans are replaced by loot.\nIt is this mood of unreflective overkill, rather than any aggregation of details, that stamps \u201cAmerican Made\u201d as a period drama. We don\u2019t feel smothered in huge hair styles, and Lucy\u2019s dresses aren\u2019t there to make a statement, like the women\u2019s braying attire in \u201cAmerican Hustle\u201d (2013). Liman has more potent ploys at his disposal, like the cinematography of C\u00e9sar Charlone, who shot \u201cCity of God\u201d (2002), and who endows the new film, especially in its early patches, with the hot-but-faded glow that you get from an old transparency. (\u201cKodachrome, they give us those nice bright colors,\u201d Paul Simon sang, in 1973.) Above all, there is Tom Cruise, whose career was in the ascendant, with \u201cRisky Business\u201d (1983) and \u201cLegend\u201d (1985), in the frantic years covered by the second half of \u201cAmerican Made.\u201d Because he has changed so little in the interim, and mounted so uncanny a resistance to the onslaught of time, we feel, with a jolt, that we are gazing up at a star as he both was and still is. Astronomers may flee the cinema in confusion.\nYet Liman, to his credit, is not content to revel in the shine of his leading man. \u201cAmerican Made\u201d joins that small band of Cruise movies, like \u201cMagnolia\u201d (1999) and \u201cCollateral\u201d (2004), which summon the nerve to dig around\u2014to test the armor of his geniality, and to deconstruct that celebrated grin. God help us, he even gets a tooth knocked out! (Two other characters remark upon the loss, aware that it\u2019s as rare as an eclipse.) You can smile your way into trouble, the film suggests, and out of it, too, so what will it take, either on the private or the national scale, to wipe such confidence away? That is a question worth putting not merely to Barry, who is sought simultaneously by the F.B.I., the D.E.A., the A.T.F., and Arkansas State Police, but also to Ronald Reagan, a fellow paragon of good cheer. He presides, in frequent clips, over this unquenchably chipper and heartless yarn, and would have frowned at the glum note that is struck at the end, when we are shown archival footage of the Senate investigation into the Iran-Contra affair\u2014the chief counsel at which, it so happens, was Arthur L. Liman, the father of the man who made this film. Quite true.\nIt goes without saying that the aging Queen Victoria, in \u201cVictoria & Abdul,\u201d is played by Judi Dench. The acting aristocracy of Great Britain is as adamantine, in its way, as the Royal Family, and any other performer would, one presumes, have been forbidden by parliamentary statute. Dench commands the role with ease and without vanity\u2014allowing a blob of cream to disfigure the imperial visage, say, as she gobbles her profiteroles at a banquet. Her Majesty eats fast, and when she\u2019s finished everyone else must stop.\nThe action, if that is not too flattering a noun for the march-past of mildly diverting episodes to which we are treated, begins in 1887. Victoria, widowed since 1861, is, by her own account, cantankerous and fat; each morning, she submits to a discussion of her movements\u2014a delicate matter, pertaining both to her bowels and to her social engagements for the day. Both seem restrictive to a fault. At one end of a vast table, with noble guests arrayed on either side, sits the lonely monarch, snoring. Suddenly, she awakes and locks eyes with a strapping attendant, Abdul Karim (Ali Fazal), who has just arrived from Agra, India. He is swiftly engaged as her footman and then as her munshi, or teacher, schooling her in the beauties of Urdu. She seems rejuvenated, but her joy is not shared by her private secretary (Tim Pigott-Smith), the Prime Minister (Michael Gambon), or her wastrel of an heir (Eddie Izzard), who will succeed her as Edward VII.\nDirected by Frears and written by Lee Hall, the film is a sequel of sorts to John Madden\u2019s \u201cMrs. Brown\u201d (1997), in which Dench was a younger Victoria. Both movies tell of an inconvenient crush, but the new one feels stuck in the groove, with a single theme\u2014the unlikely half-romance, crossing the borders of age and race, and thwarted by the prejudices of the establishment\u2014returning from scene to scene. The film\u2019s attempt to portray the Queen as more politically enlightened than her courtiers is kindly but unconvincing, and many of the actors bark and behave as if participating in a spoof. As for what Frears really makes of this ceremonious palaver, I would refer you to his innovative use of the Jell-O-Cam. We find ourselves planted immediately behind the royal dessert, sharing its point of view as it is borne aloft, richly colored and quivering, into Victoria\u2019s presence. The Empire is starting to wobble. \u2666\nThis article appears in the print edition of the October 2, 2017, issue, with the headline \u201cUnreliable Histories.\u201d\nA Spoiler-Filled Review of \u201cEdge of Tomorrow\u201d\n\u201cFlorence Foster Jenkins\u201d and \u201cMorris From America\u201d\nStephen Frears\u2019s new bio-pic, starring Meryl Streep, and a film with Markees Christmas and Craig Robinson.",

        "raw_content": "Long-term Benefits of Head Start\nSomething I hear often from opponents of Head Start or even just people who aren\u2019t familiar with Head Start or Early Head Start is that the programs don\u2019t work. If you haven\u2019t met Head Start alumni, it\u2019s easy to take someone else\u2019s word for it, but as part of this community I\u2019ve always found comments about Head Start having no effect frustrating, because I see amazing results everywhere I go.\nOpportunities for Early Intervention\nIn October, 2011 the National Head Start Association premiered the \u201cOne Window of Opportunity\u201d animation, sparking a discussion about how Head Start itself is a window of opportunity for children and families\u2013and how critical it is to keep that window open in a time of growing poverty and need. As part of the Keep the Window Open campaign, Head Start parents, alumni, staff, volunteers and citizens have been invited to share their stories.\nOpportunities for Children with Special Needs\nOne Window of Opportunity\nNHSA Responds to Klein\nYou may have seen Joe Klein\u2019s unfair piece in Head Start in TIME magazine.\nHead Start Works: I See It Every Day!\nHead Start \u2013 here\u2019s my experience! It works, one child, one family at a time, each and every day.\nI\u2019d like to echo comments from the previous bloggers\u2026kudos to NHSA for starting this blog and thanks to all who work and/or have been associated with the Head Start program and the many lives they have touched. Recently, I had the opportunity to testify before the Senate to discuss the impact of Head Start on my life. Who would have ever predicted that a kid from the other side of the tracks of Joliet IL, literally and figuratively, would go on to study and graduate from the U. S. Naval Academy; become a U. S.\nFrom Head Start to the World\nI too, like Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez, would like to thank all of the wonderful staff working in and on behalf of every Head Start and Early Head Start program across the world, from the bus driver to the director to Senators and community leaders and everyone in between. And yes, I mean world because I know that this program or various aspects of this model, are being used globally in early child care and education settings (thanks World Forum Foundation). Can you believe it?!?! I decided to tell you my story because it shows how \u201cHEAD START WORKS!!!!\u201d\nFrom Head Start to Congress\nI want to congratulate the National Head Start Association (NHSA) for the launch of this resourceful blog. I would like to start off by thanking the teachers, community volunteers, health care coordinators and others who help implement the Head Start program in their communities and schools. Head Start\u2019s success is due to the dedication and hard work that they have invested in the future of every Head Start kid.",

        "raw_content": "It's a family affair as Speed the Plough returns to the stage\nThe family that plays together stays together: The current incarnation of Speed The Plough (from l. to r.) includes Toni Baumgartner, Michael Baumgartner, James Payne, John Baumgartner, Ed Seifert, and Dave Weckerman.( Photo courtesy of Speed The Plough )\nWhen Speed the Plough, with its long ties to Maxwell's and the genesis of the Hoboken music scene, returns after a year-long hiatus on Saturday, July 7, there'll be a new face on stage \u2013 new to the band, that is, but not to the audience.\nDave Weckerman, the ageless percussionist of the Feelies, has come aboard as STP's new drummer, completing a circle in a way.\nSpeed the Plough began life as the Trypes, a quirky side project of the Feelies, who were on hiatus themselves at the time. Most of the members had been friends from their high school days in Haledon, a quiet tree-lined suburb of Paterson.\nWhen the Feelies reconvened full-time in 1986, John Baumgartner and Toni Paruta (now Mrs. Baumgartner) decided to soldier on, and today \u2013 after careers, children, myriad personnel changes, several record labels and all the other barriers life throws in the way of art \u2013 Speed the Plough remains a force to be reckoned with, a uniquely gifted orchestral combo that showcases John's ever-evolving songwriting, Toni's talents as a multi-instrumentalist (clarinet, flute, sax), exquisitely layered guitars, and precise percussion.\nThe New York Daily News hailed the band's ninth album, \"... And Then,\" released last December, as \"a welcome addition to Speed the Plough's catalog, a fine example of their endurance, humanity and empathic songwriting.\"\nWith the Baumgartners as its immutable core, Speed the Plough has shown a remarkable proclivity for adaptation and change, even incorporating several children of the group's original members in its lineup over the years: Dan Francia, son of founding member Marc, played bass on \"... And Then\"; John Demeski, son of Feelies drummer Stan, has been behind the kit; and John and Toni's son Michael Baumgartner currently plays guitar. Guitarist Ed Seifert, bassist James Payne (a close friend of Michael's) and the Feelies' Dave Weckerman complete the current lineup.\nWe checked in with Mr. and Mrs. Baumgartner at home, preparing for their show on July 7 at Piano's in Manhattan.\n\"Dave is the old drummer who is our new drummer,\" explained Toni. \"People know him from the Feelies and Yung Wu but in fact he was the Trypes' drummer back in the day. He joined us in April, and he adds so much enthusiasm and old-school drumming, things that we're excited to hear and play, and, of course, he brings his personality, which is so colorful.\n\"And our new bass player, James Payne, is a youngster who happens to be an old friend of our son Michael,\" she continued. \"In fact, they've been playing together for 10 years or more. He also has a very nice singing voice, so we're doubly blessed to have him with us.\"\nJohn added: \"It's been an interesting transition, and it really feels like there's a new sensibility to the band. Replacing a rhythm section is a big thing, obviously, for any group, and we've had some pretty extraordinary drummers over the years, I'm happy to say. But Dave's a little different, he's definitely put his imprint on the band. He has a pretty extensive vocabulary. I'll hear these little drum fills or these little turnarounds coming from him and I'll just think, 'Wow, where did that come from?' When he's behind the drum kit, he's like a little kid playing drums, he plays with so much joy. But he's still got that old school sensibility.\"\nWith Weckerman behind the kit and an enthusiastic young bassist, the band has been focusing on its more rocking numbers, John said, as opposed to its repertoire of softer, more pastoral tunes.\n\"It's been pretty energetic, to say the least,\" he said. \"And the faster songs have been a little bit easier entryway for the new guys. It's just been so natural.\"\nWhen drummer John Demeski and bassist Cyndi Merklee announced at about the same time that they'd be leaving the band about a year ago, Speed the Plough was in the process of finishing up the songs for what would be its next album.\n\"I was in a pretty serious pre-production mode when we got the news, so I just thought, let's try something from left field and get another rhythm section to record these songs without really being able to play them live first,\" John said.\nDan Francia proved to be available on bass, and Ken Meyers \u2013 a friend of a friend from the long-lived N.J. pop-rock group Life in a Blender \u2013 filled in on drums.\n\"You can't do better than Dan on bass, and Ken just got the feel for what we were doing right away,\" John said. \"They both fit in seamlessly. So it was kind of a weird thing to do. We recorded four or five full-band songs at Mix-O-Lydian Studios and then just did everything else at home. We threw in a few songs from the vault that we had been meaning to get back to, and somehow it came together.\n\"Of course, the dopey part of it was that we didn't have a band to go out and promote the thing once it came out. ... But that's what we do. You get thrown a little curve in life, and you figure out how to get over it.\"\nFew couples manage to hold a marriage together as long as John and Toni, but doing that and playing together in a band is quite an achievement. At least you'd think so.\n\"It's funny, when people comment on how we work really well together, it's something that I just never think about,\" Toni said. \"We just have this interconnection but I've come to realize how important it is to our lives. It happens so naturally.\n\"But,\" she added, \"we don't sit around the dinner table and talk about this phrase here or that note there. I don't try to over-analyze anything John's writing. Maybe once about 20 years ago, I asked him what a particular lyric meant and I still haven't gotten a straight answer, so I just go with what it means to me when I go to sing it.\"\nAs far as being both married and in a band together, the Baumgartners have quietly and simply found a way to keep those things separate.\n\"When it comes to recording and the quote-unquote 'business end' of it, we do have very frank conversations about that, and I have distinct ideas,\" Toni said. \"And we throw ideas around a lot, especially when it comes to recording and mixing.\"\nToni played a \"most fundamental role\" in the recording of the last album, John added.\n\"It was freeing in a way,\" Toni said, \"because we realized we were doing it all on our own, and we didn't have to please anybody but ourselves. So, we really dug in on the question of what we wanted to sound like. And if this album is going to be our legacy, how do I want to be remembered five or 10 years from now? That's what was in our minds. So we did it on our own, and we're really, really happy with it.\"\nWhile prepping the newly reconfigured Speed the Plough for its return to the stage, John and Toni have also been working on a project called the Campfire Flies, which includes STP's Ed Seifert as well as Jon Fried and Deena Shoskes of the Cucumbers and Matt Davis of A Thousand Pities; it's been described as \"a sea of vocal harmonies and stringed and squeezed instruments.\" An album should be coming before the end of the year.\nMeanwhile, STP's next generation \u2013 Michael Baumgartner, James Payne and John Demeski \u2013 have put their old band Garden Party back together, and they should be turning up at local clubs soon too.\nSpeed the Plough, DDS, Safar, Maps Of, and Royal Arctic Institute will perform at Piano's, 158 Ludlow St., NYC, on Saturday, July 7. Doors open at 7 p.m.; and admission is $10. For more information, visit speedtheplough.com.",

When I see the two of them I\u2019m like \u201cIt\u2019s going to be comic book\u2019s equivalent to Rush Hour, and I don\u2019t know if comic fans are ready for it.

Entitled \u2018No Good Deed\u2019, the clip sees Ryan Reynolds\u2019 Deadpool responding to a street robbery in his usual, meta way. It also features a cameo from iconic Marvel founder Stan Lee.\nThe film\u2019s producer Simon Kinberg has said of the eagerly-anticipated sequel: \u201cI think Deadpool 2 will comment on anything that\u2019s happening in movies today especially in superhero movies. The sort of glut or saturation of these movies and the proliferation of sequels is definitely something we\u2019ll play around with.\u201d",

In the Committee's opinion, the award to Sato would encourage all those who were working to halt the spread of nuclear arms.\nThe Peace Prize to Sato was heatedly discussed, especially in Japan. He was a controversial politician. The Japanese left accused him of being an obedient servant of American interests.\nSato was born into an old samurai family. He was trained as a lawyer, and before and after World War II he was employed in the Japanese railway service. After the war he pursued a political career despite charges of corruption. In 1964 he was in charge of the Olympic Games in Tokyo, and he became Prime Minister the same year. Sato supported the US war in Vietnam, while at the same time urging the United States to return the island of Okinawa to Japan. This happened in 1972, but the United States retained control of the military bases.\nMLA style: Eisaku Sato \u2013 Facts. NobelPrize.org. Nobel Media AB 2019.

CGEI is also providing guidance to the students regarding travel planning, cultural preparation, funding resources, and safety and security.\n\u201cWe are very excited for Amy, Sarah, Elyse, and Julie. Traveling to another country to address critical global health challenges forces our students to shift their cultural stances and opens their eyes to other ways of providing health care,\u201d said Yolanda Ogbolu, PhD \u201911, MS \u201905, BSN \u201904, CRNP-Neonatal, assistant professor and director, UMSON Office of Global Health. \u201cGlobal health service-learning experiences are important pathways for bi-directional learning and are often transformational experiences.\nNelson and Litts will travel to Costa Rica with four other UMB students and three faculty members from the University of Maryland School of Law to participate in the project \u201cA comparative analysis of emerging infectious disease outbreak preparedness and response in Costa Rica and the U.S.\u201d The team will examine how the U.S. and Costa Rican governments responded to the 2016 Zika outbreak from clinical, pharmaceutical, health care, and community perspectives; compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of the two different approaches; and assist in conceptualizing how to implement in the United States successful practices used abroad, while overcoming potential barriers. Additionally, students will learn how to engage the community during infectious disease outbreaks.\nDeLaittre, three other UMB students, and two faculty members from the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) will travel to The Gambia to participate in the project \u201cHealth system strengthening in The Gambia: A continuation of prior work.\u201d This project will build upon the foundational work laid in previous UMB visits in 2014 and 2016, with the aim of providing local Gambian health leaders with the knowledge and resources to fortify the country\u2019s health system. Previously, UMB has served as a World Health Organization (WHO) Collaborating Centre for Occupational Health in support of WHO\u2019s Global Plan of Action on Worker\u2019s Health. The team will provide technical expertise and content knowledge focused on the health care environment to assist low-to-middle income countries in implementing practices to ensure basic worker protections. Additionally, the group will work to prioritize and implement health care worker protections as one pillar of health system strengthening and sustainability.\nFactor, two other UMB students, and an UMSOM faculty member will go to Rwanda to participate in the project \u201cFirst assessment of injection drug use practices and associated HIV risks in Kigali, Rwanda.\u201d Students will partner with a team of Rwandan medical and nursing students to develop a survey to implement a pilot study at a clinical site in Kigali. The team will seek to ascertain the prevalence and associated behaviors for injection drug use in addition to processing data and presenting the results at an international infectious disease conference.\nUMSON\u2019s Office of Global Health predominantly focuses on nursing students, while CGEI is a campuswide academic resource center for UMB faculty and students who are interested in global education opportunities. CGEI promotes and supports interprofessional global education, identifies global themes that can be contextualized locally, and facilitates academic work related to global education.\n\u201cThe summer grants program spearheaded by the Center for Global Education Initiatives provides an extraordinary opportunity for our nursing students to join other UMB students and faculty in interprofessional learning opportunities within a global context,\u201d said UMSON Dean Jane Kirschling, PhD, RN, FAAN. \u201cOur students will participate in what will undoubtedly be an incredible learning and service experience that reflects our commitment to interprofessional education and to diversity and inclusion.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Potty poopers! City plan for pay toilet stalled\nHey, Brooklyn, you'll have to hold it a wee bit longer.\nThe city's plans to install a pay toilet in Grand Army Plaza have stalled after the Landmarks Preservation Commission put off a vote to place the fancy perma-potty near Prospect Park this week.\n\"The commissioners didn't make a decision because they want to see the photos of the wider area where it would be,\" said commission spokeswoman Lisi de Bourbon.\n\"They couldn't tell from the presentation that they saw how it would fit in with the surroundings,\" she said.\nThe proposed site is located at historic Grand Army Plaza, across the street from the Central Library on Flatbush Ave., and is near a seating pavilion designed by famed architect Stanford White.\nDe Bourbon said Landmarks commissioners are concerned the public toilet would clash with the surrounding landmarked structures, such as the Soldiers' and Sailors' Arch.\nTuesday's vote was postponed until next week, when the city Department of Transportation, which is in charge of the public toilets, presents the Landmarks panel with wider shots of the area where the rest room would be located.\nThe cost of doing business in Brooklyn's first metallic-looking booth would be 25 cents for 15 minutes. One public rest room is already operating in Manhattan in Madison Square Park, and another at the busy intersection of Roosevelt Ave. and 103rd St. in Corona, Queens.\nCommunity Board 9 District Manager Pearl Miles said locals overwhelmingly approved the proposed toilet site at last month's meeting and sent the recommendation to the LPC.\n\"They voted in favor of it. They thought it was a good idea to have a public toilet here,\" Miles said. \"They didn't have a problem with the location because it's a place where a lot of people go, visitors to the park and Grand Army Plaza.

        "raw_content": "Mets GM Sandy Alderson taking immediate leave of absence as his cancer returns\nSandy Alderson \u2014 always measured, always stoic, always composed \u2014 fought back tears in the press conference room at Citi Field Tuesday afternoon as he delivered the unfortunate news: His cancer has returned, and he will be taking an immediate leave of absence from his role as Mets general manager.\n\u201cYou got to deal with it,\u201d Alderson said as his eyes welled up.\nSandy Alderson leaves Tuesday's press conference after sounding like he would not be returning. (Daniel Popper/New York Daily News)\nIt is the latest gut-punch in a season full of them for the Mets, who entered Tuesday\u2019s home game against the Pirates 14 games under .500. Sitting next to owner Jeff Wilpon, Alderson took full responsibility for the horrid play and missed expectations this year.\nAlderson, 70, will be relinquishing his authority over the Mets\u2019 baseball decisions. Assistant GM John Ricco, as well as special assistants J.P. Ricciardi and Omar Minaya, will take over on an interim basis for the remainder of the season. Alderson does not see himself returning to his position at any point in the future \u2014 both because of his health and his performance.\n\u201cI will not have decision-making authority going forward,\u201d Alderson said. \u201cIf people want to call me, they\u2019re welcome to do so. But at the same time, I don\u2019t expect to be involved in day-to-day activity. With respect to the future, I would say two things: one is, not withstanding the good prognosis, my health is an uncertainty going forward. And secondly, if I were to look at it on the merits, I\u2019m not sure coming back is warranted.\u201d\nA somber Sandy Alderson (l.) reveals his cancer has returned at a press conference with Mets owner Jeff Wilpon (r.) (Daniel Popper/New York Daily News)\nThis situation is different than the one the Mets endured two-and-a-half years ago, when Alderson was first diagnosed with cancer in December 2015, a month after he collapsed at a press conference announcing then-manager Terry Collins\u2019 contract extension.\nAlderson maintained his decision-making authority during that offseason and into the spring, despite missing the Winter Meetings and undergoing cancer-related surgery in May 2016. Now that will not be the case, and it likely signifies the end of Alderson\u2019s tenure in New York, which spanned parts of eight seasons.\nThe Mets finished 582-628 under Alderson. They failed to win more than 77 games in five of his seven full seasons. They made the playoffs twice, highlighted by the 2015 World Series run.\nWhen asked if Alderson will return to his role as GM if health permits, Wilpon responded: \u201cI think his health and his family is first and foremost.\u201d\nWhen asked the same question again, Wilpon repeated, \u201cI think his health and his family are first and foremost.\u201d\nLater, Wilpon was asked if he agrees with Alderson\u2019s assessment that a return is \u201cnot warranted\u201d based on the \u201cmerits.\u201d\nHis response: \u201cI\u2019m not going to get into that again. I\u2019m just really concerned for Sandy\u2019s health and that he\u2019s back with his family and doing everything he can to make sure he weathers this storm as best he can.\u201d\nStill, it was abundantly clear that the owner disapproves of Alderson\u2019s performance.\n\u201cYou have a range of emotion just like our fans that include being incredibly frustrated, disappointed, angry about our season at this point, certainly,\u201d Wilpon said. \u201cWe\u2019re in a results business, and at this point, we\u2019re well below our expectations.\u201d\nSandy Alderson is taking an immediate leave from the Mets. (Kathy Willens / AP)\nAlderson learned of the recurrence of his cancer in late April or early May. He did not consider leaving at that time.\n\u201cI have been undergoing treatment. I expect that the treatment will continue, I expect to have surgery later in the summer. My prognosis is actually good. But in the meantime, the chemotherapy, the surgery, all take their toll,\u201d Alderson said. \u201cI haven\u2019t been traveling on the road, as the beat writers are aware. Consistent with the treatment, energy levels vary, other side effects, which makes it difficult to stay up with the pace, the tempo of the everyday. Operations continue, the game continues. We have a season to play. So I think in the best interest of the Mets and for my health, this is the right result.\u201d\nWilpon said Alderson approached him on Sunday and asked to meet. Alderson then informed the owner of his decision.\n\u201cNone of us writes his or her script. You deal with circumstances as they arise,\u201d Alderson said. \u201cI\u2019m grateful for all the opportunities I\u2019ve had here, all the opportunities I\u2019ve had in the game, and for whatever opportunities may arise in the future. But this isn\u2019t Disney World, and we have to deal with life as it presents itself, and I\u2019m OK with that.\u201d",

        "title": "Flawed DePuy Hip Implant Had Early F.D.A. Notice - The New York Times",
        "raw_content": "Business Day|Hip Maker Discussed Failures\nHip Maker Discussed Failures\nBy BARRY MEIER FEB. 21, 2012\nA year before recalling an artificial hip, an executive at Johnson & Johnson reported in an internal e-mail that the Food and Drug Administration had refused to approve the device, after reviewing company studies that showed it had failed prematurely in \u201csignificant\u201d numbers, requiring repeat surgeries for patients.\nThe statements in that e-mail contrast with those made by the company in recent years about the all-metal hip. Before recalling the device amid rising failure rates in 2010, Johnson & Johnson insisted it was safe and maintained that its internal studies refuted complaints by surgeons and regulators abroad that the device was flawed. The device turned down by the F.D.A. was only sold overseas, but a companion version that was recalled at the same time by Johnson & Johnson was used in 30,000 patients in the United States.\nThe e-mail at issue was written in August 2009 by a vice president of a Johnson & Johnson subsidiary, DePuy Orthopaedics, just days after the F.D.A. confidentially notified the device maker that it would not approve one version of the hip for sale in this country. In the e-mail, the executive, Pamela Plouhar, explained the reasons for the agency\u2019s decision to three other top executives, including DePuy\u2019s president at the time, David Floyd.\nMs. Plouhar reported that the device had not met F.D.A. approval standards and that a major concern was its high rate of early failure, or \u201crevision,\u201d during clinical trials. She also cautioned that providing the F.D.A. with more data might not change its stance and that it might take years to conduct new studies of the hip, known as the ASR, or articular surface replacement.\n\u201cThe team\u2019s concern is that given the revision rate in the ASR group that we will still not be able to demonstrate non-inferiority, with additional downside risk,\u201d Ms. Plouhar wrote.\nTo win approval, a novel medical device like the DePuy hip must be shown to be reasonably safe and effective. One way to prove that is to show that it is at least as effective as, or not inferior to, a traditional hip implant.\nIn her e-mail, Ms. Plouhar said there had been \u201ca significant number of revisions in the ASR group\u201d compared with \u201cvery few in the control group.\u201d\nMany artificial hips last 15 years or more before they wear out and need to be replaced. But by 2008, data from orthopedic databases overseas showed that the ASR was failing at high rates in patients after just a few years. The device also sheds metallic debris as it wears, particles that have damaged tissue in some patients or caused crippling injuries.\nA DePuy spokeswoman, Mindy Tinsley, declined to respond to specific questions about the e-mail. In a statement, she said that the e-mail was \u201csimply a notification to senior management about the F.D.A. feedback as the company appropriately continued to study data\u201d about the implant so that it could make responsible decisions on the behalf of patients.\nLast week, Andrew Ekdahl, the current president of DePuy, said in a statement issued in response to an earlier article in The New York Times that any implication that the F.D.A. had determined there were safety issues with the device was \u201csimply untrue.\u201d\nDuring the eight years the DePuy A.S.R. artificial hip was on the market, it was used in an estimated 93,000 people globally. Credit Andrew Testa for The New York Times\nIn her 2009 e-mail, Ms. Plouhar referred to complaints about early failures of the ASR from doctors and regulators abroad. Regulators in Australia were then pressuring DePuy to withdraw the artificial hip from the market there or face having it forced off.\n\u201cThis comes at a time when ASR data from national registries (Australia and UK) is being closely scrutinized because of higher revision rates,\u201d she wrote.\nDePuy does not appear to have violated any laws by not publicly releasing the F.D.A. ruling, which was contained in a so-called nonapprovable letter. The F.D.A., as a matter of policy, does not release such decisions, saying that they may contain confidential business information.\nBut DePuy\u2019s decision not to publicize the agency\u2019s findings to doctors, patients and others while continuing to market the device may undercut its defense in the 5,000 related lawsuits pending against it and could also tarnish its reputation.\nThroughout the episode, DePuy blamed orthopedic surgeons for the model\u2019s failures, saying that doctors were not positioning a component properly. But the clinical findings rejected by the F.D.A. came from A.S.R. studies run by surgeons hand-picked by DePuy, including some who had developed the implant and received royalties or consulting fees in connection with it.\nThe e-mail containing Ms. Plouhar\u2019s report about the F.D.A. decision is among thousands of company documents released to lawyers suing the company under a court-ordered seal.\nIt is not known how many patients received the implant in the year between the F.D.A. decision and the recall. But during the device\u2019s eight years on the market, it was used in an estimated 93,000 people, about one-third of them in the United States.\nThe version of the device rejected by the F.D.A. was developed by DePuy for use in a hip replacement procedure called resurfacing, which is a bone-sparing alternative to standard surgery. The company started selling the implant abroad around 2003 but because resurfacing was a new procedure, the F.D.A. required DePuy to run clinical trials before selling the device in the United States.\nHowever, while those studies were under way, DePuy used a regulatory loophole in 2005 to start marketing a version of the implant in the United States for use in standard hip replacement surgery. Both versions of the device used the same critical component, a solid metal cup that replaced a patient\u2019s hip socket. Experts say the component was flawed in design. In the wake of the F.D.A.\u2019s 2009 decision to reject the resurfacing version of the device, DePuy executives wrote in internal e-mails that the device\u2019s fate appeared sealed.\n\u201cCan\u2019t imagine we would go any further in the U.S.,\u201d one executive wrote.\nIn September 2009, just weeks after the F.D.A. decision, other documents indicate that top DePuy executives decided to phase out the device. The company announced the move that November.\nCompany executives said then that the move reflected declining sales of the implant, rather than safety issues. In his statement last week, Mr. Ekdahl, the company\u2019s president, reiterated that position.\n\u201cThis was purely a business decision,\u201d Mr. Ekdahl stated.\nA version of this article appears in print on February 22, 2012, on Page B1 of the New York edition with the headline: Hip Maker Discussed Failures.

The couple debated what to do with their world-class collection for nearly a decade.CreditCreditDmitry Kostyukov for The New York Times\nPARIS \u2014 For nearly a decade, Spencer and Marlene Hays, who live in Nashville and New York, debated what to do with their world-class art collection, centered on works by Bonnard, Vuillard and other French Nabis painters. Would they leave it in the United States? Or sell it and donate the money to charity?\nIn the end, \u201cwe decided to give it where we thought it would be appreciated the most,\u201d Mr. Hays said recently, speaking in a Southern drawl and sitting in the couple\u2019s cozy art-filled pied-\u00e0-terre here. Their place is a short walk from the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay, where the works will one day be on display \u2014 the largest foreign donation to France since World War II.\nThe donation, announced on Oct. 22 at a ceremony at \u00c9lys\u00e9e Palace, was the culmination of formal talks between officials at the highest levels of the French government and the couple, who are 80 years old and have been married for 60 years.\n\u201cL\u2019Heure des B\u00eates: Les Chats,\u201d also known as \u201cLe D\u00e9jeuner des B\u00eates (La Famille Terrasse),\u201d a 1906 painting by Pierre Bonnard.CreditJohansen Krause\n\u201cIt was a very torturous path, but we succeeded,\u201d said Guy Cogeval, director of the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay since 2008, whose friendship with the Hayses was key in securing the donation. Mr. Cogeval met the couple in 2001 when he was director of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and writing the catalogue raisonn\u00e9 for Vuillard, and they have remained close.\nIn April, the Hayses met with the French culture minister, Audrey Azoulay. \u201cWe told her we had decided to give all of our art to the French people,\u201d Mr. Hays said. \u201cThe only thing we wanted to be sure she would do for us, we wanted it in one place, we want it all together, we don\u2019t ever want any of it to be sold, and we never want it to be stored; we always want it on the wall.\u201d\nA \u201cdecisive moment\u201d came in June, when Ms. Azoulay had lunch with the couple at Giverny, Monet\u2019s old haunt in Northern France, and expressed \u201cthe French state\u2019s full political will\u201d to work to secure this \u201cexceptional donation,\u201d said Marie-Christine Labourdette, director of the national museums in France.\nMr. Hays would not say if they had ever been in talks with any American museums. \u201cThere are museums in the United States that could handle it, but we felt that it belonged here, and we felt that way for many reasons and one is they\u2019re French painters,\u201d he said.\n\u201cL\u2019Homme et les Deux Chevaux\u201d (1890), by \u00c9douard Vuillard, also part of the Hayses\u2019 collection.CreditThe Bridgeman Art Library, via Christie's\nSome might have hoped that the art would remain in the United States. \u201cI felt guilty about that for a long time, but then I realized that more Americans would see the art here because so many people go to the Orsay,\u201d Ms. Hays said, sitting in an Art Deco chair beneath two Bonnards and a Vuillard, two cornerstone painters in their collection.\nThe Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay has nearly four million visitors a year, about a third of them from the United States.\nThe French government now owns the collection, but the Hayses have the use of it while alive. The trove will arrive in France in stages, starting with 200 works. To house the collection, which will move to France after the Hayses\u2019 deaths, the museum will carve out dedicated permanent gallery space and relocate a library off-site starting next year. French law forbids national museums from selling anything in their collections, unlike many museums in the United States, which can de-accession works.\nMr. Cogeval said that the museum would display the collection in its entirety under the terms of the agreement, but might rotate the Hayses\u2019 collection of works on paper for conservation purposes. \u201cHe wants badly to be in the Musee d\u2019Orsay, so he will have to accept the limited space that we have,\u201d he said.\nAnother work from the Hayses\u2019 collection, \u201cFemme S\u2019\u00c9pongeant le Dos\u201d (1895), a pastel by Edgar Degas.CreditJohansen Krause\nThe couple met at 14 and married at 19. They began collecting in the 1970s and were drawn to the Nabis. \u201cWe neither one were educated, so we just started buying what we loved,\u201d Mr. Hays said. \u201cWe decided we would never buy a painting that we didn\u2019t both love and want to keep forever. So we\u2019ve sold practically nothing.\u201d\nScholars praised the coherence of the collection and said it would broaden the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay\u2019s range beyond Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. \u201cThis donation will let the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay become a reference for the Nabis,\u201d said Philippe R\u00e9gnier, editor of Le Quotidien de l\u2019Art, a French arts daily.\nBorn in Oklahoma and raised in Gainesville, Tex. \u2014 near Paris, Tex., as he likes to note \u2014 Mr. Hays rose from humble origins and founded the Tom James Company, which makes bespoke clothing. He also owns other business ventures, including Southwestern, which began as a Bible publisher and now sells books door-to-door.\n\u201cIn America I think we\u2019re better than the French at entrepreneurship,\u201d Mr. Hays said. He was wearing an American pinstripe suit and sipping a glass of Montrachet wine. \u201cBut France is better at teaching culture and letting people know the importance of culture.\u201d\nA version of this article appears in print on , on Page C6 of the New York edition with the headline: World-Class Art Given to France by Americans.

        "raw_content": "News > Press Releases 2018 > Judge\u2019s nervousness is not a sufficient reason to deny consent to video recording\nJudge\u2019s nervousness is not a sufficient reason to deny consent to video recording\nThe Deputy Ombudsman inquired into the manner of resolution of a complaint against an inappropriate conduct of a judge of the Regional Court in Ostrava. The complaint was directed against, inter alia, the presiding judge of the appellate chamber, who had prohibited the complainant from making a video recording of the hearing because \u201che was nervous when filmed\u201d. The complainant also objected to the composition of the appellate chamber.\nThe president of the court concluded that the complaint was substantively unfounded but noted that the complainant\u2019s submission expressed his disagreement with the procedure and decision of the appellate chamber and potential remedies could be sought by means specified by relevant procedural rules. She summarised that the complainant had incurred no harm to his rights in the relevant proceedings: he prevailed in the dispute, was present at the hearing and made an audio recording.\nNevertheless, the Deputy Ombudsman concluded that the president of the court had made an error in dealing with the complaint. Firstly, denying consent to video recording requires a relevant and legitimate reason, even though the law does not require that a reason be stated for denial of consent to video recording. If the judge denies consent to video recording, this has the same ultimate effect as if he forbade it, i.e. limited the publicity of the hearing.\nThe Deputy Ombudsman also concluded that the fact the judge is \u201cnervous\u201d when filmed is not a legitimate reason for not giving consent to recording. Judges are professionals and the high standards for their conduct serve to increase public confidence in the judiciary, which is a necessary prerequisite for its independence. The fact that the court ultimately decided in favour of the complainant is irrelevant in this regard.\nThe president of the court also made an error when she classified the submission as filed against the court\u2019s procedure. Conduct of a judge that jeopardises or even merely undermines trust in the independence, impartiality and fairness of judicial decision-making or the independence, impartiality and dignity of the judicial office constitutes inappropriate conduct.\nThe president of the court admitted she had made an error in dealing with the complaint and made sufficient steps to remedy the situation.",

        "title": "Agile Marketing Management or how we can learn from IT | OMCollective",
        "raw_content": "Author: Robrecht De Nul\nblog_agile_marketing.png\nAgile Management is a project management method that has been emerging for years within the IT world. One of the major advantages of agile management is that, as an organisation, but also as a team, you can anticipate and capitalise on changes more easily and quickly. In concrete terms, Agile management means dividing projects into smaller 'chunks', called sprints, which are concluded individually. A sprint could take a week or two. Teams that use the Agile method typically apply the scrum-technique. In this, everyone runs through their working day, what they are planning to do, which problems they are facing and how they could be resolved. This makes the project easier to manage overall and means that you can anticipate change more quickly and easily. It also means that stakeholders are much more involved in the overall process. In this blog article, we will explain how you can apply this method in the (online) marketing world. A real impetus can be created as a result of more rapidly anticipating change and being more closely involved with all of the business elements. We will discuss the 10 most important pillars of Agile Marketing Management.\nPeople find it hard to retain facts and figures or a dry piece of text. People remember experiences. This is also the primary aim and the 'reason of being' of agile marketing management. It's all about what the customer wants and how we can ensure that we provide them with an unforgettable experience. We do this by taking account of needs and wishes and by traversing all of the (online) channels. Gaining an insight into the entire customer journey thus becomes even more important. Also connected into this, it is of vital importance that you use each channel at the right moment and in the correct way.\nDon't fear change\nThe world is undergoing enormous change at a very fast pace, particularly in the online world. Marketing plans are usually draw up for a full year. It is, however, impossible to decide in advance how the situation will unfold in 6 months' time. New options may become available that connect into your business much more effectively than the channels that are included in your plan. Change is a constant in the world and marketing is no exception. So dare to change the plans you've made or alter your course along the way. Businesses which effectively anticipate and deal with change are the businesses with the best chance of survival.\nBut be aware that this is certainly not justification for working without a strategy or an all-encompassing vision. These are always necessary in order to determine how you will anticipate change and how you can continuously maintain your product in the market. The flexibility and changes primarily play out on a tactical level.\nOne of the core values of agile management is that individuals and interactions can make a difference more quickly and effectively than processes and tools. Within agile marketing management, we see this reflected at three levels:\nInternal marketing services must be harmonised such that they can more effectively facilitate interactions between team leaders. As a result, response to change can be quicker and more effective.\nThe cooperation between marketing and the various other business components must also be more open and flexible. Marketing teams must be able to harmonise with product managers, external agencies and other stakeholders within the organisation quickly and easily.\nOn the final level, but certainly not the least important, is the customer. The end-customer must be the central figure in all interactions and campaigns that are elaborated and launched. Here, we hark back to point one, where experience is at the fore.\nThis is a balance that must be retained, given the huge and constant inflow of marketing tools. We cannot call upon a tool for every issue.\nIn online marketing there is a constant torrent of information. This then becomes the linchpin for online marketing. We use it to measure results, implement optimisation and discover new opportunities. It also provides us with a great insight into the customer's world. On the basis of this data, we can conduct targeted and controlled tests in order to optimise the effectiveness of all (online) marketing channels. By continuously testing and gathering relevant data about customers, we can more effectively reconcile the marketing mix with the needs and wishes of the customers, and subsequently provide them with an improved experience..\nExperimenting on a small scale\nIn the past, there were large media campaigns and it was almost impossible to conduct small-scale testing in advance. But this is much easier online and you can also go live with very precisely targeted campaigns and then learn from them. You can also test messages on a small section of your target audience before you roll it out to everyone. The fact that you can conduct small and very quick tests increases the chance that you can uncover combinations that work for your business. These winning tests can then be rolled out on a more extensive scale.\nIt is important, when drafting marketing plans and campaigns, that the customer has a central role and that you work on the basis of their perspective. You can do this on the basis of the data that you have gathered and the tests you have carried out. But you don't have to limit yourself to this. Social media, for example, can also provide a goldmine of information and feedback, giving you direct contact with your customers. On the basis of this information, you can optimise your plans, processes and tactics. If your business is ready for it, you can also involve your customers in coming up with new innovations or pathways for your company. This ensures that your business works in a far more customer-focussed manner and connects back into point one, i.e. creating an unforgettable experience.\nThe agile method is all about transparency. The entire process, right down to the individual tasks, is accessible to everyone. This means that change can be anticipated more quickly. This, in turn, expands the customer's commitment to the project.\nShip often, ship early\nThis is an oft-repeated mantra within agile management. It refers to the importance of developing and rolling out new functionalities often and quickly. By making use of the data that you have collated, the tests you have conducted and also listening to your customer, you can come up with and roll out new marketing concepts extremely quickly. This allows you to keep up with the latest developments. A popular term from agile management that we often hear is 'sprint'. A sprint usually lasts between 1 and 4 weeks. During a sprint, the focus is on one task. Once this is completed, the roll out continues and the next sprint is ready to go. A sprint can involve anything and it is entirely possible that a sprint during which you optimise your Google Adwords campaigns is alternated with a two-week sprint that involves developing a full social media strategy. By splitting the entire process into small sections, it is easy for all of those involved to follow what is on the 'menu' for the coming weeks. In addition, this also means that we can change direction at a moment's notice, if this becomes necessary.\nOf course, it's not only about producing new items and placing them in the market. Agile marketing is all about continuous improvement, based on well-founded feedback. It is therefore important to set thorough KPIs prior to every sprint or realisation so that the feedback provided is sure to be both relevant and well-founded.\nFeedback must be provided constantly throughout the process as this is the only way to ensure the agile marketing environment can succeed.\nGetting rid of silos\nHistorically, many marketing organisations have expanded into a silo structure, where each department is responsible for their own section or channel, such as email or social media. This is not necessarily a problem as long as these various departments talk to one another, engage in discussion and find harmony. In reality, however, this rarely happens. Nevertheless, all of these departments are serving the same end-customer. The agile management method expects these silos to be broken down and all of the data that the departments have gathered on the customers to be used to come up with and roll out new, improved and above all cross-departmental marketing concepts.\nCharles Darwin said \u201cIt is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.\u201d Agile management ensures that your business has a mindset, tool kit and principally the vision to face up to the future and the many corresponding changes.\nIf you have any questions on agile management or how you can apply it to your organisation, please feel free to get in touch.\n\u2039 Neuromarketing: the quest to find the buyin...\nCut-and-dried marketing lists have had their ...",

People Dick Cheney; Republican Hypocrisy; Right Wing Hypocrisy; Torture; USA United States Of America; Veterans; Veterans; Veterans Vietnam, Add Tags (less...)\nVice President Dick Cheney used every trick he could to evade the draft and military service altogether during the Vietnam War. His evasion of service has significant ramifications in his execution of the Iraq War. Americans should demand more in their vice president.\nThere doesn't seem to be much that Cheney wouldn't do to avoid service in Vietnam. Cheney applied for and received four draft deferments for being a student at Casper College and University of Wyoming between 1963 and 1965. On August 7, 1964, Congress approved the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which greatly increased Cheney's chance of being drafted, but 22 days later, he married Lynne. At the time, married men were exempt from being drafted. Hence if student deferments were to become disallowed, his marriage might still decrease his chances of being drafted. But the war kept demanding more troops, and the number of people eligible for the draft rapidly expanded. On May 19, 1965, Cheney was reclassified with the most dangerous draft status. On July 28, 1965, President Lyndon Johnson announced that the number of people drafted would double. Then on October 26, 1965, the Selective Service announced that it would start drafting married men with no children. Married men with children were still exempt from the draft. Exactly nine months and two days later, Cheney's first daughter, Elizabeth, was born. During the first trimester of Lynne's pregnancy, Cheney applied for and received another draft deferment. Altogether, Cheney finagled five draft deferments.\nThis isn't what Cheney recalled in 1989 during a Senate confirmation hearing to be secretary of defense to the first President Bush. Cheney was questioned about his failure to serve and responded, \"I would have obviously been happy to serve had I been called.\" Cheney admitted in the same year to a Washington Post reporter that he \"had other priorities in the 60s than military service.\" Cheney said he had \"other priorities\" than military service, but many brave men from Cheney's hometown of Casper, Wyoming, such as Specialist 4 Richard Sweeney, Gunnery Sergeant Robert Grove, and Captain Carlton Holland, served instead of Cheney and died in Vietnam. Cheney was busy with his \"other priorities\" while supporting the war in which he was too lily-livered to fight.\nDuring the 2004 election campaign, Cheney strongly criticized the national defense commitment of Senator John Kerry (D-MA), the Democratic nominee for president. This criticism was outrageous and disgraceful because Kerry was a Vietnam War hero who volunteered for service in the U.S. Navy, requested duty as a swift boat officer, which was one of the most dangerous combat duties in Vietnam, and demonstrated exceptional valor in combat, which resulted in winning a Silver Star, a Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts. Kerry served America with tremendous courage, honor, and distinction during two tours of duty, and to this day, he still has shrapnel left in a leg from his battle wounds. Cheney was supportive of the Vietnam War, but used every dirty trick he could find to avoid serving in it. Then he had the gall to criticize Kerry's commitment to national defense. Kerry could have used his privileged background to evade service in Vietnam like Cheney, who finagled five draft deferments. But Kerry volunteered to serve, even though he didn't believe the war was worthwhile, because he knew if he didn't go, another young American would be sent in his place. Besides criticizing Kerry's commitment to national defense, Cheney stood by while his surrogates distorted and skewered Kerry's honorable and courageous service in Vietnam.\nReferring to Cheney's criticism of Kerry's commitment to national defense, Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA), another Navy veteran, responded, \"When I hear this coming from Dick Cheney, who was a coward, who would not serve during the Vietnam War, it makes my blood boil. Those of us who served and those of us who went in the military don't like it when someone like a Dick Cheney comes out and he wants to be tough. Yeah, he'll be tough. He'll be tough with somebody else's blood, somebody else's kids. But not when it was his turn to go.\"\n\"Our problem with this current war in Iraq is that we're being governed by the chickenhawks,\" said former Governor Jesse Ventura, a Vietnam veteran. \"You know what a chickenhawk is? That's somebody when it was their time to serve they were chicken. But now they come back when they're 50 years old and they're hawks. I laugh when President Bush says-he come out a few months ago and said the problem with Vietnam was we left too soon. Well, why didn't he come over and help out? Or why didn't five or four or five deferment Dick Cheney show up? And how is it that a guy with four or five deferments from the military can end up the secretary of defense? Shouldn't you have at least served? You're the main liaison between civilian and military. Shouldn't you have at least had military service? And yet here's Dick Cheney, a [former] secretary of defense.\"\nCheney was recently asked about the milestone of 4000 American troops being killed in Iraq. He responded, \"The president carries the biggest burden, obviously. He's the one who has to make the decision to commit young Americans.\"\nLieutenant General Gregory Newbold, the former director of operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, described Cheney's attitude well when he said, \"The commitment of our forces to this fight was done with a casualness and swagger that are the special province of those who have never had to execute these missions or bury the results.\"\nCheney says that Democrats favoring a timetable for withdrawal of American troops believe in \"cut and run,\" as if he is the courageous one for staying the course, but he isn't among the troops facing the prospect of death every day in Iraq. Cheney cut and run when his country needed him in Vietnam.\nAs a result of his evasion of service in the Vietnam War, Cheney has no firsthand experience in or appreciation of the risks of war, such as becoming a prisoner of war. This truancy undoubtedly contributed to troops being sent into combat without proper body armor and enough armored vehicles. It contributed to him supporting policies that created so many more insurgents and enemies of America instead of winning over hearts and minds in Iraq and Afghanistan. This includes being indifferent to tremendous civilian casualties, allowing Iraqi home invasions, imprisoning numerous innocent people including children, holding detainees for years without charges, eliminating their right of habeas corpus, sanctioning the abuse and torture of prisoners, and gutting the Geneva Conventions meant to protect American and foreign troops. All of these policies created many more enemies and thus many more American casualties.\nCheney never needed the protection of the Geneva Conventions, but American troops do. Because Cheney helped discard the Geneva Conventions for enemy combatants who become prisoners of war, American troops who become prisoners of war can't expect to be treated under the Geneva Conventions by the enemy. Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the former leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, beheaded American Nick Berg as revenge for humiliation and abuse of prisoners at Abu Ghraib prison by American troops. What a way to die. The American public should be outraged that this beheading was caused by the Bush Administration's policies for treatment of prisoners.\nCheney acts as the de facto behind-the-scenes president on foreign policy. This chickenhawk doesn't have the moral authority to send troops into combat when he was too scared to serve in the war fought by his generation. Cheney supported the Vietnam War as long as he didn't have to fight in it. While he evaded service in Vietnam, many other young Americans died in his place. Why would any veteran or member of the military support someone who shirked his duties when he honorably performed or is performing his duties? Why would any citizen support someone with such a disgraceful record of evading military service? Why would anybody reward cowardice over courage? Through his actions and words, Cheney said that if his country needed him, don't come calling on him, but send someone else in his place.\nNow Cheney thinks he can be a leader for the armed services and the country. Wake up, America. If he didn't have the courage to serve, he doesn't have the courage to lead.\nAshu M. G.

        "raw_content": "100 Bible Verses about Criticize\nTherefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. Do you suppose, O man\u2014you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself\u2014that you will escape the judgment of God? Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?\nWhy do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written, \u201cAs I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.\u201d So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.\nDo you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.\n\u201cBlessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. \u201cBlessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. \u201cBlessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. \u201cBlessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. \u201cBlessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.\nDo not say, \u201cI will repay evil\u201d; wait for the Lord, and he will deliver you.\nHe also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and treated others with contempt: \u201cTwo men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee, standing by himself, prayed thus: \u2018God, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.\u2019 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, \u2018God, be merciful to me, a sinner!\u2019 ...\nWoe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!\nThe heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.\nJames, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greetings.\nBrothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.\nWhat causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you?\nMy brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.\nFinally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me and is safe for you.\nYou then who teach others, do you not teach yourself? While you preach against stealing, do you steal? You who say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? You who boast in the law dishonor God by breaking the law. For, as it is written, \u201cThe name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.\u201d\nAnd when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycaonian, \u201cThe gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!\u201d Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. And the priest of Zeus, whose temple was at the entrance to the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates and wanted to offer sacrifice with the crowds. But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their garments and rushed out into the crowd, crying out, \u201cMen, why are you doing these things? We also are men, of like nature with you, and we bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.\nNow at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed.\nThe woman said to him, \u201cSir, I perceive that you are a prophet. Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.\u201d Jesus said to her, \u201cWoman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.\nWhen the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, \u201cEveryone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.\u201d This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.\nWhen the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom\nHe was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light.\n\u201cBeware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts, who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.\u201d",

The entire software stack contains many moving parts, from the application right down to the software drivers that communicate with your hardware. High loads are also induced on the hardware stack, whether it is your disk subsystem, network interfaces, or CPUs. These conditions push the entire platform to its limit.\nThe testing of server-side code differs significantly from the testing of client-side applications. Therefore, you need to approach testing with an entirely different mind-set. It is true that Microsoft has spent many man-years of effort developing and executing tests that cover myriad scenarios and the many features that the product offers. Microsoft performs a comprehensive set of automated test passes over every day's build during the development cycle. In fact, this is the case for all products that Microsoft develops. In itself, that is a huge number of tests. This testing helps Microsoft ensure that on a daily basis no regressions are made to the BizTalk code base. The level of flexibility that BizTalk offers means that it is highly likely that your exact scenario has not been tested by Microsoft in terms of the way that your scenario uses the product. Of course, your custom code and orchestrations will not have been tested by Microsoft. It's also worth considering that the chances are extremely unlikely that your configuration has been ...",

        "raw_content": "Antibiotics in Livestock Feed Raises Concerns\nby Bill Tomson\nFor related articles and more information, please visit OCA's Factory Farming and Food Safety page, Farm Issues page, and our Health Issues page.\nWASHINGTON-The vast majority of antibiotics given to livestock in the U.S. is mixed into the feed that animals eat, according to the Food and Drug Administration, raising concerns that mass dosing increases risks to human health.\nRep. Louise Slaughter (D., N.Y.), who made public the FDA revelation Friday, and others contend that the large-scale feeding of antibiotics to livestock speeds up antibiotic resistance in bacteria that can threaten human health. Livestock groups, such as the National Pork Producers Council, disagree.\nThe FDA itself has long been concerned that the widespread use of antibiotics on farms contributes to the quickening of the pace that the drugs become useless to humans.\nWhen feed is used as a method of administering antibiotics, \"some animals will eat too much, some animals won't eat enough and some will eat just the right amount,\" according to Gail Hansen, a farming specialist with the Pew Charitable Trusts' Health Group. And sick animals will likely be the ones that don't get enough because they tend not to eat as much as healthy animals, Ms. Hansen said.\nThere is no evidence, though, of \"inconsistency\" in the feeding of antibiotics fed to livestock, according to the pork group, which stressed that \"feed mill mixing equipment is designed to add antibiotics in the proper amounts.\"\nThe group also said there is no evidence that \"the widespread use of antibiotics on healthy animals is contributing to the growth of bacteria resistant to the drugs we use to treat humans.\"",

Besides, accused Shafi Mohammad also recorded his confessional statement under Section 164 of the criminal procedure code before a judicial magistrate, it added.\nThe judge recalled the confessional statement of accused Shafi who had confessed that he and his brother were labourers and went to a bungalow in PECHS to commit a robbery. At the bungalow, they asked a woman, who was present there, that they wanted to measure the floor [of her house] and she allowed them to enter. The accused admitted that his brother, Fida, caught the woman and he stabbed her with a sharp knife and fled the place of incident after looting jewellery and cash.\nThe verdict said that the stolen jewellery was found in the possession of accused Shafi at the time of his arrest and his counsel failed to establish that the same belonged to him or his brother.\nIt said that in his confessional statement, accused Shafi stated in detail that how he had committed the crime along with his brother/co-accused and it was undisputedly corroborated with the evidence of the witnesses and the post-mortem report, it added.\u201cAfter evaluation of whole evidence available on record and keeping the facts and circumstances in view, I am of the firm opinion that the prosecution has succeeded in bringing the guilty of accused persons at home regarding the murder of deceased lady\u201d, the judge concluded.\nThe court also found the convicts guilty of committing the robbery and handed down three-year imprisonment each.\nThe court also imposed a fine of Rs10,000 on each convict and in case of non-payment, they would suffer an additional there-month imprisonment.\nAccording to the prosecution, the accused entered the house of complainant Mohiuddin Zakai in PECHS Block 2 on April 4, 2001 and stabbed his wife to death during robbery.\nThe accused persons, who were labourer by profession, were working in the house for the last few days prior to the incident, it added.\nThe police arrested Mohammad Shafi on April 12, 2001 in Multan while his brother was arrested on April 16, 2001 in Manzoor Colony on a lead given by the arrested accused.\nA case (FIR 356/2001) was registered under Sections 302, 392 and 34 of the Pakistan Penal Code and Section 17(4) Offences against Property (Enforcement of Hudood) Ordinance, 1979 at the Ferozabad police station.\nIn his final arguments, the public prosecutor, Younis Baloch, said that the ocular and circumstantial evidence came up on record had proved the guilt of the accused persons in the crime.\nHe maintained that the prosecution had proved its case beyond a shadow of a doubt. He sought capital punishment for both the accused.\nHowever, the defence counsel argued that the accused persons were framed in the case as there was a dispute over payment of labour charges between them and the complainant.He maintained that all the recoveries had been foisted upon the accused and the confessional statement of accused Shafi was recorded under duress by police.\nHe said that that there were glaring contradictions in the statements of the prosecution witnesses and prayed to the court to acquit his clients.\nThe accused were produced in court and were remanded back to the prison along with their conviction warrants to serve out the remainder of their sentence.\nThe court extended the benefit of Section 382-B (period of detention to be considered while awarding sentence of imprisonment) of the criminal procedure code to the convict.\nPrevious: Girl for sale in Khairpur\nNext: Court orders protection to newly-wed couple",

        "raw_content": "by Oliver Kemp | Apr 13, 2018 | News | 0 comments\nAn international law enforcement operation has disrupted what is believed to be one of the most significant people smuggling networks operating between Iraq and the UK.\nNational Crime Agency (NCA) officers arrested three suspected members of the group yesterday in the North West of England and Staffordshire.\nThe 41-year-old man believed to be the head of the network was arrested at his home in Oldham, where officers seized \u00a315,500 in cash.\nA 38-year-old man was arrested in Stoke on Trent and a 35-year-old man was arrested in the Newton Heath area of Manchester.\nAt the Newton Heath property another man, 25, was arrested by Immigration Enforcement on suspicion of illegally entering the UK.\nNCA officers are questioning the suspected head of the criminal network this morning, while the two other men have been released on conditional 28-day-bail.\nThese arrests, for suspected immigration offences, coincided with the arrests of two men in the Ghent area of Belgium following several months of joint operational work between the NCA and Belgian Federal Police.\nIn the Belgian action a 15-year-old boy was rescued before he boarded a lorry bound for the UK.\nThe operation followed arrests made last month in Germany and Romania, coordinated by Europol and Eurojust.\nThe suspects, all from or with links to the Kurdish community, are believed to be part of a network of smugglers, couriers and complicit lorry drivers stretching from Iraq to the UK.\nThe NCA believes the network are behind the smuggling of almost three thousand migrants into Europe in a three month period last year. Many were trying to reach the UK.\nBusiness premises in Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Stoke-on-Trent were inspected during the UK operation, which involved officers from Greater Manchester Police and Staffordshire Police, Immigration Enforcement and HMRC.\n75kgs of hand-rolling tobacco and more than 500,000 cigarettes were discovered during searches.\nDavid Norris, NCA branch commander, said: \u201cBetween the Middle East and the UK lies a network of highly organised criminal groups who smuggle desperate people in dangerous conditions for huge sums of money.\n\u201cWe believe during this operation we have identified and now disrupted one of the most significant of these groups, and the impact of acting in tandem with our European partners on this operation has meant we have been able to cause permanent damage to a well-established network.\n\u201cThe NCA takes people smuggling extremely seriously. It\u2019s a crime based on exploitation of the vulnerable and puts the security of the UK\u2019s border at significant risk.\u201d\nThis is the second major NCA strike this year against people smugglers operating in the UK.\nIn February, the agency\u2019s officers disrupted a suspected network operating from the North East of England in one of the agency\u2019s biggest-ever deployments.\nNCA officers arrested 21 subjects in that operation, all of whom were released under investigation.\nThe NCA leads Project Invigor, a multi-agency campaign to tackle organised immigration crime.\nThe Project Invigor taskforce includes officers from Immigration Enforcement, Border Force, and the Crown Prosecution Service.\nIt works with international partners to target suspected criminal networks behind people smuggling in the Mediterranean and at the UK border.\nSource: From the National Crime Agency News Feed",

        "raw_content": "In the currency markets, one of the most popular products is no doubt the spot forex. It is popular due to the ability of retail traders to trade with an online forex brokerage account.\nWith spot forex, trading is also relatively easy. You simply speculate on the exchange rate and buy or sell the currency pair in order to book profits. However, for the most part, spot forex trading is a speculative tool. There is no delivery of the underlying instrument, which is the currency.\nSince the currency markets are essential, there are many more participants who have the actual need to exchange one currency to another.\nFor example, a local manufacturer of goods would be paying close attention to the exchange rates especially if they export their goods overseas. Because the exchange rates fluctuate on a day to day basis, it is important for such participants to track the exchange rate in order to maximize their profits.\nIt is not just for profits but also to manage their accounts which becomes crucial when it comes to projecting cashflows and thus the net profit and loss. As a result, using the currency derivatives, companies and individuals are able to better manage and project the future cashflows.\nThis wouldn\u2019t have been the case if the exchange rate for the currencies were stable. Given that the currency markets are very volatile, it becomes imperative for the investor to manage their transactions accordingly.\nAs with most financial markets, the currency markets also have a large set of derivative products. Derivatives in the currency markets and in just about any other markets such as stocks are useful because it enables the investor a lot of flexibility.\nLet's take a look at what are derivatives in the currency markets.\nDerivatives, as the name suggests is a product derived from something else.\nThis is nothing but the spot currency markets in the context of forex derivatives. Derivatives allow the investor to hedge their risk or exposure.\nDerivatives in the currency markets come in different forms.\nSome of the most popular forex derivatives are:\nFX Forwards\nEach of these derivatives has a specific use. Therefore, it would be futile to attempt to guess which of these derivatives are better. The futures and forwards are one of the most widely used currency derivatives.\nSince manufacturing firms, import and export companies are the major stakeholders, the FX futures and FX forwards are two of the most widely used derivates in this context. Of course, speculators can also use these derivative products to profit from the volatility.\nAn easy way to explain why someone would use the currency derivatives is explained below.\nFor example, if the EURUSD exchange rate was fixed at $1.20, this would make life very easy. By accounting for the number of goods produced and the orders a firm has, they can easily forecast their cashflows for the quarter, or for the year.\nBut the currency markets as you know fluctuate on a daily basis. The rate you see today will certainly be different from a year or a quarter for now. Because a currency can appreciate and depreciate over time, forecasting with such variability can be difficult for firms.\nImport and export firms therefore make use the derivatives to lock in on an exchange rate for a period of time. This enables them to see the cashflows with a fair amount of stability. This is not the case with the spot forex markets, which is why the currency derivatives come into the picture.\nWhat are FX futures?\nFX futures are contracts, that detail at what price a currency can be bought or sold and also sets a specific date at which the transaction can be exercised.\nThe futures market in the context of currencies are highly regulated and traded at a futures exchange.\nThis is to avoid the counterparty default risk.\nAt the end of the contract period, the counterparty holding the contract is legally binding to take delivery of the currency on the date the contract expires and the price that was agreed.\nTo explain this in simple terms, let\u2019s assume that a company A which is manufacturing shoes and exporting them abroad has a big order to fill. The order is due for payment in 90 days.\nThe company that they export to is based overseas and uses a different currency.\nLet\u2019s assume that the local currency is EUR and the foreign currency is USD and the current exchange rate is 1.1200 USD for one EUR. The manufacturer is expected to receive 100,000.00 US dollars for this order. But they will have to then convert it into the local currency, which is the euro.\nIf the delivery was done today and the transaction closed, the manufacturer would get $100,000 which when converted to euro at the prevailing spot rate of $1.1200 gives them Eur 89,285.72.\nAs you can see from the above example, if the EURUSD exchange rate rises, the manufacturer can get more euros. But at the same time if the exchange rate falls, the manufacturer will get less amount of euros.\nSo, the question is how can the manufacturer hedge this exchange rate risk?\nIn 90-days, there is a good chance that the EURUSD\u2019s exchange rate will either appreciate or depreciate. In order for the company to project their cashflows which will allow them to take decisions such as hiring, payroll, expansion, maintenance of the business and so on, an FX futures contract can be used by the firm.\nLet\u2019s assume that the manufacturing firm expects the Euro to fall in value against the USD. In other words, over the next 90 days the euro\u2019s exchange rate is expected to fall. To lock in the exchange rate, the firm will buy a Euro currency futures contract at the current rate of $1.20\nBecause all fx futures are priced in US dollars, the firm can sell the $100,000 they get and convert it to the euro at the agreed price.\nAt the end of the 90-day period, the firm will receive $100,000 from their overseas client. They will then exchange the USD for the euro to receive Eur 89,285.72, regardless of where the euro futures contract close.\nHow are FX futures traded (specifications)?\nFX futures, as mentioned previously are traded at a futures exchange. The most popular futures exchange is the CME Group, also known as the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The CME group\u2019s futures exchange works similarly to a stock exchange such as the NASDAQ or NYSE.\nExample of FX Futures Contract Specifications for euro futures (CME Group)\nAll trading is standardized and there is an order book which keeps track of all transactions made.\nAn FX futures contract is available for most of the liquid or free floating currencies. Besides the main currencies, you can also find forex futures contracts for some exotic currencies such as the Brazilian real or the South African rand.\nAll fx futures are priced in U.S. dollars and operate during the usual U.S. business hours. You can also trade the futures during off market hours, but liquidity becomes very thin.\nThe FX futures contacts comes with a quarterly or a 90-day expiration following which a new contract is opened. The contract size can vary depending on the type of currency futures you are trading. For example, the euro fx contracts come with a standard size of 125,000 units with the tick size incrementing in 0.0005 USD for a euro.\nThe tick size is $6.25. This means that if the price increases by 0.0002, that\u2019s $13.00 worth. The immediate three consecutive monthly contracts can be traded at any time. At the end of the contract expiration, the counterparty holding the contract can settle for the physical delivery of the instrument.\nThis is usually the case with manufacturers or producers. Speculators can simply close out their position before the rollover in order to avoid being obliged to take or deliver the physical settlement.\nFutures contracts can also be cash settled, meaning that the different is settled in USD.\nFutures trading of course can be done on margin, thus speculating the forex futures markets can be a bit risky.\nWhat are FX forwards?\nAn FX forward or a currency forward is an agreement between two counterparties. In an FX forward, one of the counterparties agrees to buy or sell a certain amount of the foreign currency at an agreed price for a predetermined time in the future.\nWithin the fx forwards, there are two types.\nA closed fx forward settles on an exact date, whereas an open fx forward settles within a specified period of time. In an open fx forward, counterparties can agree to settle all the notionals or in parts during the settlement window.\nWhat type of an fx forward you choose, depends on both the counterparties agreeing to the terms of the deal.\nAn fx forward is used to hedge the currency risk. It allows counterparties to lock in on an exchange rate on the date. By using fx forwards, counterparties can protect the cost of products or services imported or exported. Exchange rates can also be locked in in advance.\nThe calculation of a forward fx is drawn upon from the prevailing exchange rate in the spot markets. The interest rate parity is also taken into account for both the currencies.\nThe interest rate parity is nothing but the difference in the interest that can be earned between the two currencies in question.\nFX forwards are conducted over the counter. Therefore, these contracts adhere to the International Swaps and Derivatives Association or ISDA. The ISDA helps to bring structure to the OTC products in case of a discrepancy between the counterparties involved.\nHow are FX forwards traded (specifications)?\nUnlike the forex futures contracts, the FX forwards are traded over the counter. The most ideal place where you can trade an fx forward contract is your bank. In this case, you and your bank agree to the details and terms of the contract and sign an ISDA agreement.\nThe ISDA agreement allows you to fall back upon in case of any discrepancy.\nExample of FX forwards\nIt is also relatively cheaper to trade the fx forwards due to the OTC nature of the trade, compared to FX futures.\nThere will be a small fee to pay when you engage in a fx forward contract. This fee can vary based on a number of factors such as how well the bank knows you and your risk profile.\nWhile it is possible for individuals to also open an fx forward contract, it is mostly small and medium businesses to large firms that engage in such transactions. It is important to note that the FX forwards are not the ideal derivative product to use for speculation purposes.\nWithin the FX forwards, there is another sub type of forwards known as non-deliverable forwards or NDF\u2019s.\nA non-deliverable forward allows you to trade some exotic currencies that are not very liquid. NDF\u2019s are popular among the Asian currencies and in Latin America. Some of the most widely used currencies in non-deliverable forwards include the Indian Rupee, the Indonesian Rupiah, Brazilian Real, Chilean Peso to name a few.\nAs the name suggests, with an NDF, you are hedging the exchange rate risk of the foreign currency. Vanilla NDF\u2019s are always priced in USD. An example of this is the USDBRL currency pair for example.\nYou can also trade exotic NDF or a cross currency NDF. A cross currency NDF is one which does not include the USD. Example is the EURBRL or the SEKBRL. With a cross currency NDF, the rates are calculated relative to the USD. Which means that the exchange will be converted based on the EURUSD rate and the USSBRL rate.\nWith a non-deliverable forward, you will also get the settlement in USD only. This basically allows you to hedge the exchange rate of the foreign currency which is then converted to the USD rate.\nTop six differences between FX futures vs. forwards\nHaving understood how a futures contract and a forward contract works, let\u2019s look at the main differences between these two types of fx derivatives.\nFX futures are standardized and exchange traded products. This means that regardless of any futures exchange you go, you will get the same contract specifications. This standardization makes it easy to use the FX futures contracts.\nFX forwards non-standardized and are traded over the counter. The type of contract can depend from one bank to another. The fees are also not uniform as they depend on a number of factors. Therefore, a FX forward at Bank A can be different from an FX forward at Bank B.\nSince FX futures are cleared at a futures exchange, there is no counterparty default risk. This is because, as part of the contract standardization, you are required to post collateral. On a daily basis, the futures contracts are marked to market. This means that you need to have enough money in your account at all times to match the market value at close of business.\nBecause an FX forward is traded as an over the counter product, there is a risk of a counterparty default. Of course, since you mainly trade with a bank, the counterparty default risk is much less. But conversely, when the bank engages in a forward contract with you, the bank faces a counterparty default risk. This explains why the fees for fx forwards can be different and depending on how worthy a bank thinks you are.\nFX futures can be used to speculate on the currency markets as well. A trader or a speculator can simply engage in a futures contracts such as they would deal with the spot fx markets trading. However, instead of keeping the contract open for delivery, the speculator can simply close out their position before it rolls over and get cash settlement.\nAn FX forward cannot be used for speculative purposes. Although there is a way to do this, it is highly unlikely. Therefore, with fx forwards, you can only see businesses using this type of derivative contracts. Some large investors also use the fx forwards mostly as a hedging tool where there is actual settlement of the underlying instrument or currency pair.\nFx futures contracts are settled on a quarterly basis. This means that at the end of the 90-day period, market participants can choose whether they want to roll over to the next contract period, thus extending their positions by another 90-days or simply settle by taking delivery of their existing contract.\nWith Fx forwards, there is no rollover. The FX forward contracts can be set for any period of time. In some cases, you can find that the contracts can even last for just 7 working days. With FX forwards, there is no risk of having to roll over your contract every 90-days.\nThe fx futures markets are very liquid. This means that you can walk away from your obligation by simply selling your contract. It is important to note that in the futures markets, the contracts can be transferable. Therefore, you can choose to buy a contract and then sell it a few days later without incurring any additional costs, except that of the exchange rate.\nFX forward contracts are not very liquid. Because transactions are done over the counter, there is no way to really see the total volume. Furthermore, since an fx forward contract is legally binding between two counterparties, you cannot walk away from the obligations without having to incur extra charges.\nFX futures offer only a limited about of currency contracts that you can trade. For the most part, you can trade the highly liquid currencies from the developed economies and some currencies from the emerging markets. While you can find a few fx futures contracts that include some exotic currencies, low liquidity keeps these futures contracts not as popular.\nWith FX forwards, the counterparty is basically free to choose any forward that they want to trade. Due to the OTC nature of the forwards market, the counterparties can agree to a customized forward contract that suits the firm that engages in a forward contract in the first place. This allows forwards to be more customizable and available for just about any exotic currency.\nThree main risks when trading fx futures and forwards\nRegardless of what currency derivative one uses, there are some risks worth considering. There are three main types of risks when dealing with fx futures or forwards.\nCredit risk - Credit risk is one of the biggest factors that affects all financial instruments, not just the currency markets. A credit risk is defined as when one of the counterparties fail to fulfill its obligation. Credit risk is more prevalent with forex forwards. In the next few sections you will learn how the credit risk is mitigated with forex futures.\nCredit risk is also known as counterparty risk.\nExchange rate risk - Potentially unfavorable movements in the currency markets can be a risk. This comes due to the fact that counterparties agree to lock in on an exchange rate when the contract is opened.\nUnfavorable movements in the currency can potentially become a risk for one counterparty while the other could be seen making a huge profit as a result.\nInterest rate risk - The interest rate risk is also important as it depends on the interest that can be earned with the two currencies. When a contract has been agreed and signed, one of the counterparties will potentially forego the option to get a favorable interest rate.\nLiquidity risk \u2013 Although the fx futures are more immune to the liquidity risk, there is still a risk that counterparties would not want to buy the contracts from you. The liquidity risk is more prone in the forward contracts because of the OTC nature of a transaction. Because you engage in a forward contract with a counterparty, you can only sell back your forward contract if the counterparty agrees.\nWhy use FX futures and forwards?\nCurrency derivatives such as FX futures and FX forwards were developed as a way to hedge the currency exchange rate risk.\nHowever, at least for the most part, fx futures are widely accessible to everyone. This means that as far futures are concerned, both firms with genuine need for hedging as well as speculators who merely want to profit from the currency rate fluctuations can use this product.\nWhile futures are one way to hedge currency exposure, fx forwards are also another type of derivatives. However, due to the fact that fx forwards are over the counter and involves mostly banks and firms, the average speculator does not have easy access to the forwards market.\nThis makes fx forwards a better choice for firms. However, this does not mean that forwards are exempt from the volatility. However, forwards are better suited for large firms that engage in cross currency transactions.\nAt the end of the day, it is the fees and other factors such as accessibility to the currency in question that will determine which of these two fx derivatives to use.",

        "raw_content": "Volunteer blog: Juan Roch Gonzalez, EVS volunteer\nJuan Roch Gonzalez came to Pestalozzi as a European Voluntary Service (EVS) volunteer in 2012. His main role at Pestalozzi is to help students learn Spanish, but he is involved in many other activities besides. He spoke to Jonathan Williams, Pestalozzi\u2019s Marketing Officer, about his experience.\nWhat drew you to EVS as a volunteering option, and why were you interested in Pestalozzi?\nI heard about the EVS because one of my friends was involved in an EVS project in Latvia. All that he told me sounded amazing and so interesting. I always wanted to travel abroad, and learn other languages and know other cultures, but the EVS is something more. It offers the opportunity to take part in a project to improve the world and exchange knowledge and experiences with a wide variety of different people. This was the aspect that most inspired me to do the EVS. More specifically, I was interested in Pestalozzi's educational philosophy and the chance to take part in a training project with young people from very different cultural backgrounds.\nAnd what were you doing before you came to Pestalozzi?\nI am from Spain, more specifically from Madrid. I was working and finishing my degree in Sociology before coming here. Previously I worked as postman, because at that time it was better suited to my needs, but before that I had worked as a researcher, analysing statistics data, and other jobs.\nI know your main role here is as a Spanish tutor, but you live on-site and volunteer full time, so what else are you involved with?\nWe have a music band with which we practice on Fridays, and we are going to play at several events. I have always been passionate about music, and it is one of the activities I most enjoy doing with the students. They are eager to learn and create new things and we really have a great time unleashing our musical creativity.\nI have also organized a football tournament on the weekend where the students interact, have fun, and do some exercise. Moreover, I assist at some events, such as the cultural evenings and outings organized by Pestalozzi, for instance, going to London to attend London International Model United Nations and other conferences.\nYou sound busy...\nYes! I will describe a typical day here at Pestalozzi: I get up early, at 6:30, to have enough time to take the bus at 8am. I attend English classes twice a week in the morning until 12:45pm. Then I wait to get the bus back to Pestalozzi at 2:35pm. The days that I have English class I have to eat at college or at home when I arrive, about 3:15pm. About 3:30pm or 4pm I go to the office to prepare Spanish classes or do other tasks. I'm working until 6:15 pm, which is when I go to dinner. The Spanish classes start at 7:30pm and last until 9:30pm. Sometimes after that I run a tutoring class with some students who need to work on some particular aspect or have doubts and questions. If all goes well, I am usually in my house by 10pm. I must say that not all days are like that \u2013 only twice a week. Other days are much more relaxed.\nHave you done any other training since you\u2019ve been here?\nIn the EVS you should do three volunteer training sessions. I have already done one, in October, and I am going to do the next in March. These are really interesting events in which you can learn a lot of things and make friends who are in similar situations to yours.\nYes, I think it is a very rewarding experience, and you can learn a lot personally and professionally. I would make two suggestions: You have to know that you like volunteer work, and you have to know you will fit in the type of project you choose \u2013 both for yourself and for the people who will depend on your work.\nRegarding Pestalozzi, is exciting to take part in this project, although you must be a quiet person, like nature, and be patient waiting for the bus, and sometimes paying for a taxi! I think the most important thing you can learn about Pestalozzi students is to value the hope and enthusiastic attitude they display in their daily routine, to achieve their dreams.\nGet involved! Find out about how you can volunteer at Pestalozzi.",

The thickness and thickness of the film and the different positions of the valve vary nonlinearly with the control amount, and each valve is adjusted. The influence on the adjacent points is very large, and the adjustment has hysteresis, so that the different moments are related to each other. For this highly nonlinear, strong coupling, time-varying and control uncertainty system, the exact mathematical model is almost impossible. Establishing, even if the mathematical model can be established, it is very complicated and difficult to solve, so that there is no practical value, and the traditional control has better control effect on the determined control model, but the control effect is very poor for highly nonlinear, uncertain, and complex feedback information. Even powerless. In view of this we have chosen the fuzzy control algorithm. At the same time, the method of changing the fuzzy quantization factor is adopted to better adapt to the change of system parameters.\nPREV: How Plastic Blowing Moulding Machine Works I NEXT: The Development Speed of Automatic Pet Blowing Machine",

        "raw_content": "Harry Gross: Hyperinflation fear is very overinflated\nBy Harry Gross\nD EAR HARRY: I recently read a book predicting that we'll have hyperinflation within four years in the U.S. The author's opinion is that investors will refuse to purchase U.S. bonds because of the very high debt-to-GDP (Gross Domestic Product) ratio of 104 percent and a $15.7 trillion total debt. He believes that our government will resort to printing more money rather than cutting spending or regulations. The book recommends that we purchase necessary items (such as food, clothing, cleaning supplies, etc.) before their prices skyrocket and these items disappear from our stores. He further recommends moving money to countries with debt-to-GDP ratios of less than 80 percent such as Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Is he crazy, or crazy like a fox?\nWHAT HARRY SAYS: I hesitate to call anyone crazy. However, predictions of hyperinflation have plagued the U.S. for well over 100 years. It hasn't happened. I know that this guy probably said that it's different this time, but I can still remember all the doomsday guys in the past saying that this time it's different. It isn't. Foreign money is still coming here, even from Australians, New Zealanders and Canadians. It's demand for our bonds that is keeping interest rates at present low levels. Your author also seems to have forgotten that the government has taxing power to increase its revenues. Besides all that, I doubt that my tomatoes will last that long.\nEmail Harry Gross at harrygross@ phillynews.com or write to him at Harry Gross c/o the Daily News, Box 8263 Philadelphia, PA 19101.

        "title": "Xiamoi Mi5 - Your next Android gaming phone? | Articles | Pocket Gamer",
        "raw_content": "Xiamoi Mi5 - Your next Android gaming phone?\nXiaomi's stature in the world of smartphones grows with each new release, and the Chinese firm - so often referred to as \"The Apple of the East\" due to its enviable position in that particular market - sent out a powerful message by choosing to unveil its new Mi5 handset at this year's MWC in Spain.\nThe company's phones are intended for sale in its homeland and parts of India, and while Xiaomi has hinted at a global release, it hasn't happened yet.\nIf you're interested in the Mi5 then you'll have to import the phone from resellers online, but is it really worth the effort when we already have so many amazing phones available to us here in the UK? Read on to find out.\nXiaomi has a reputation for ripping off Apple when it comes to design - the Mi4 looked a lot like the iPhone 5, for example. A quick glance at the Mi5 might lead less kind individuals to point the finger yet again, this time with Samsung as the offended party.\nHowever, while the Mi5 does indeed share the same rounded back as the Galaxy S7, here the Chinese firm has no case to answer; the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 had a rounded rear panel and that pre-dates Samsung's device by a full month.\nElsewhere, the phone shares some common themes with the Mi4. A band of metal runs around the edge of the phone, festooned with the usual crop of buttons, grilles and sockets. USB Type-C is in - Xiaomi used it on its Mi4c last year - and on the front you'll find a thin home button which also acts as a super-fast fingerprint scanner.\nThe Mi5 has a simple and elegant design, and while it lacks the wow factor of the Galaxy S7 it still manages to outshine many of its 2016 Android rivals. It's thin and surprisingly lightweight, and despite the 5.15-inch screen doesn't feel too large in the hand. This is a premium offering, without a doubt.\nThe UI on the Mi5 is unlike any you'll have seen on any other non-Xiaomi Android phone. The Chinese firm customizes Google's OS with one of the most drastic interfaces on the market, totally stripping away Google functionality by default and removing the app drawer to present a more iOS-style experience, along with its own Mi Store full of apps and other downloads.\nHowever, despite the differences the software is based on Android 6.0, and benefits from the improvements Google has baked into that version.\nWhile MIUI looks a lot like Apple's iOS, it does come with some features which are unique, even in the Android sector.\nFor example, the OS allows you to randomise your lockscreen wallpaper so you get a different image every 15 minutes. You can also apply a theme to the phone's UI from a store packed with options - while this is something that other manufacturers offer, the sheer volume of themes available for MIUI is staggering.\nGranted, many of them are whimsical efforts featuring poorly-translated English phrases and half-naked images of Chinese girls, but others are genuinely cool and even boast lock screen animations to liven things up.\nWhile it's great to see such extreme customization and variety in the Android sector, there are some issues with Xiaomi's drastic changes. The way application permissions is handled could be much better, for example.\nWhile Android 6.0 recently introduced granular permissions on other handsets, Xiaomi has been doing this kind of thing for a while - just not quite as well.\nOften you'll find that apps fail to work properly because they don't have the right permission enabled, and MIUI sometimes fails to prompt you when an app is requesting access - which means you have to manually find the app, locate the permission, and switch it on.\nThere are also issues with the way MIUI interacts with apps. For example, with Twitter you can only share content to the last-used Android application, while on any other Android device you are given the full list of apps which can be shared to.\nGiven that the Twitter app is exactly the same in both cases, there are clearly some bugs in MIUI which need squashing. On the plus side, Xiaomi pushes out updates on a weekly basis, and so these problems rarely stick around for very long.\nXiaomi previously decided that NFC wasn't needed in its phones because hardly anyone used it, but that situation is set to change with the widespread introduction of contactless mobile payments.\nThe company has wisely included NFC in the Mi5, and combined with the fingerprint scanner this means you'll be able to use the handset to pay for stuff in shops - when Android Pay launches, at least.\nThe version of the Mi5 we reviewed comes with 32GB of storage but larger capacities are available, at an additional cost, of course. There's no MicroSD card slot, so you can't add to that total later on.\nXiaomi has bucked the recent trend for pixel-rich quad HD screens by giving the Mi5 a 1080p display. While this might seem like a negative, it's actually a massive positive - because there are less pixels to push, performance is generally better, as the CPU has less work to do.\nBesides, it's practically impossible to spot individual pixels on this screen anyway, so any extra would be wasted.As for the quality of the panel, Xiaomi hasn't spared any expense here. The IPS screen is incredibly bright and boasts superb contrast and colour replication.\nIn fact, it's one of the best displays we've seen on a phone in some time - almost as punchy as the Super AMOLED panel seen on the Galaxy S7, but with arguably better representation of colour. At 5.15-inches it's also the ideal size, and is protected by Gorilla Glass 4 to prevent unwanted scratches and marks.\nAudio through the 3.5mm headphone socket is decent, with a good degree of bass. The mono speaker on the bottom edge of the device is loud enough to be heard in a busy environment, but there's quite a bit of distortion at high volume. In-call performance is good, with the other caller coming through clearly.\nWith Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 running the show and 3GB of RAM keeping things ticking over, it should come as no surprise to learn that the Mi5 is a powerhouse of gaming performance.\nThe aforementioned 1080p screen helps as well, as it places less strain on the CPU. Everything we threw at the device ran flawlessly, from intense 3D titles like Real Racing 3 and Asphalt Nitro to more sedate affairs. The 820 is quite simply one of the best mobile chipsets available, and it's incredible to think that it can be found in a handset which costs less than \u00a3300.\nOutside of games, performance is equally smooth. While the Mi5's 3GB of RAM is less than that found in the Galaxy S7 and LG G5, it never seems to matter - switching between apps is quick and you never have to endure any pauses or skipping, even when the phone is performing several tasks at once.\nMIUI arguably provides a better ride than \"stock\" Android anyway, but with this kind of power, the experience is a smooth as silk.\nThe Mi5's 16 megapixel camera is perhaps the only part of the package that has the potential to disappoint.\nIt's not that it's not decent - it takes detailed snaps and boots quickly - it's just that when compared to the super-swift snapper seen on the Galaxy S7 and the unique wide-angle option on the LG G5, the Mi5's camera lacks a bit of punch.\nSamsung's offering has incredibly fast focus and produces some of the best photos ever seen on a mobile phone, and in contrast Xiaomi's effort doesn't quite match the same level of performance. However, it's worth pointing out that the Galaxy S7 costs almost twice as much, and in that regard, there's little reason to grumble.\nAs with all phones imported from China, it pays to do a bit of research before ordering a Mi5. While 3G connectivity is fine, the device doesn't support certain 4G bands in the UK and Europe. We tested it with a GiffGaff SIM (which means we're using O2's masts) and were unable to get a 4G signal, but if you're on 3 or EE, it apparently works fine.\nElsewhere, quick-charging makes the cut, and allows you to top up the 3000 mAh battery in around an hour. The battery is more than capable of getting you through an entire day, as well.\nOn paper, the Mi5 should be the best Android phone money can buy. It's offering a cutting-edge processor, a great screen, above-average camera and mod-cons such as NFC and a fingerprint scanner - all powered by a version of Android 6.0 wrapped up in one of the most appealing custom UIs on the market.\nHowever, because the phone was never intended for use in the UK, there are caveats to consider. Depending on which network you're using, you might not get a 4G signal, and getting Google apps and Google Play access on the phone can sometimes be a chore.\nYou may also find that resellers flash the phone with unofficial ROMs that introduce Chinese bloatware - thankfully the unit we reviewed didn't, but depending on the store you use, it's a bit of a lottery.\nMIUI still needs some work as well and has a few annoying idiosyncrasies and bugs, but the same could be said of any Android OS - and weekly updates mitigate this problem somewhat.\nThese grumbles aside, the Mi5 is a truly amazing phone. For \u00a3270 you're getting a handset which is more than capable of competing with the best the Android sector has to offer at this moment in time.\nIt's running the same chipset as devices which cost almost twice as much, and delivers the kind of blistering performance that simply shouldn't exist in this price band. It's also incredibly good-looking, with an appealingly svelte design which incorporates premium materials such as tempered glass and brushed metal.\nThrow in NFC, a fingerprint scanner, USB Type-C, and Quick Charging and you've got one hell of a package - sure, there's no MicroSD slot, but that's the only thing that's really missed.\nXiaomi's decision to show off the Mi5 at MWC could be perceived as a sign of things to come - the firm has always maintained that it will expand outside of the Far East when the time is right, and with the Mi5, it surely has a phone which is capable of gobbling up market share from the likes of LG, Sony and even Samsung - assuming it can launch around the same price as the handset is currently available for on import.\nIf you're gagging for the latest tech but don't want to shell out \u00a3500 or more - and you don't mind going the extra mile to get your phone up and running - then the Mi5 simply has no equal at this moment in time. For \u00a3270, it's astonishingly good value for money.\nThanks to eGlobal Central UK for supplying the Xiaomi Mi5 used in this review.\nBoasting a gorgeous design, appealing software and a raft of cutting-edge features, the Xiaomi Mi5 is a true powerhouse - and at \u00a3270, it comes highly recommended\nHow to unlock clans, skills, rewards, and more in Elsword: Evolution\nPortal Stories: VR has released on steam for free",

Among its most-revered features are its three waterslides, together referred to as The Perfect Storm: the Cyclone, Typhoon and Supercell. Polin Waterparks manufactured the waterslides using two of its most popular waterslides namely the Aquatube and Space Hole.\nAll of Harmony's waterslides are produced using Polin's innovative Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) technology. This process which is the latest technology in waterslide manufacturing creates waterslides components that are smooth and shiny on both sides. This feature - which Polin calls Magic Shine - means the tunnel components don't get dirty as quickly and are easier to clean - definite advantages for the variety of weather conditions a cruise ship can encounter. It also means the slides are stronger - yet lighter - and easier to install. Especially important, it provides the slides with extra strength to stand up to high wind loads. Plus, the waterslides offer Polin's patented Natural Light Effects technology.",

        "title": "Explaining the four 'nos' on the Ryan plan - POLITICO",
        "raw_content": "Explaining the four 'nos' on the Ryan plan\nJust four Republicans registered \"no\" votes against Rep. Paul Ryan's controversial 2012 budget plan Friday.\nReps. Denny Rehberg (Mont.), Walter Jones (NC), Ron Paul (Texas) and David McKinley (W.Va) joined 193 Democrats in opposing the blueprint.\nHere's our insight into why they bucked their party on such a defining piece of legislation:\nDenny Rehberg -- He's a Senate candidate without a primary challenger in a state which still has a strong New Deal streak and respects the role government can play. Rehberg was already absorbing Democratic blows for comparing Pell Grants to \"21st Century welfare.\" This helps neutralize the expected attack line against him while posing little political risk. In a statement, Rehberg said there were \"too many unanswered questions with regard to Medicare reform\" for him to get to \"yes.\" \"I simply won\u2019t support any plan until I know for a fact that Montana\u2019s seniors will be protected. Regardless of which party wants to change Medicare, either Democrats with Obamacare or Republicans through this budget proposal, it's always been my approach to listen directly to Montanans prior to any vote. It\u2019s being rushed through with little to no public input. That\u2019s just plain wrong,\" he said. Words that could've come out of Jon Tester's mouth.\nRon Paul -- The least surprising of the nos, Paul lambasted the plan for not going far enough. The 75-year-old libertarian, who is again toying with a presidential run, said Ryan's budget fails to dismantle the welfare state -- a longtime goal of his. Yes, he's to the right of the Ryan plan, which makes for even redder meat to feed to crowds on the stump. But it's not just politics, Paul appears to be a true believer.\nDavid McKinley -- The West Virginian had hinted the plan gave him pause earlier this week when he told The State Journal he was staying neutral on it until he saw the details. Notably, he was the only freshman to vote no. He may be worried about redistricting in Democratic-controlled West Virginia, home to one of the oldest populations in the country.\nWalter Jones -- His office declined to put out a statement, but the record shows that Jones has been a growing thorn in the side of his party. He voted against legislation to end publicly financed presidential campaigns back in January and has also opposed his party on Iraq policy. In mid-March, he took to the House floor and delivered an emotional speech calling on Congress to bring the troops home from Afghanistan by year's end. The nine-term Jones won reelection in 2010 with 72 percent of the vote.",

        "raw_content": "South Dakota pig farmer Steve Rommereim is the new president of the 15-member National Pork Board. In this podcast, we learn more about Steve\u2019s background and his goals for the year ahead for the Pork Checkoff.\nSteve Rommereim, President, National Pork Board\nDon Wick: 00:04 From the Pork Checkoff in Des Moines Iowa, it\u2019s Pork Pod. Pork Pod, a look at the hot topics in today\u2019s pork industry. The Pork Checkoff is working for you through various forms of research, promotion, and consumer information projects. I\u2019m Don Wick speaking on behalf of the Pork Checkoff, and today our guest is Steve Rommereim, a pork producer from Alcester, South Dakota, and the new President of the National Pork Board. Steve, let\u2019s begin by way of introduction, tell us a bit more about yourself.\nSteve Rommereim: 00:27 Sure. My name\u2019s Steve Rommereim and I\u2019m from Alcester, South Dakota, the very southeast part of the state. Been in the hog production for just about all my life. Bought my first house in 1972 as a 4-H project and been involved with it ever since. So this, of course, is just a wonderful opportunity for me to not only showcase what we do from the Checkoff standpoint, but just to work with all the wonderful producers in our nation.\nDon Wick: 00:56 Well, let\u2019s look to this year ahead. What kind of goals do you have? What kind of things are the 15 member board working on this year?\nSteve Rommereim: 01:06 Well, my personal goals is to kind of keep, keep talking the talk when it comes to supporting the Checkoff. You know, the kind of returns that we\u2019re getting right now, as far as a return on investment, for every dollar that a producer would spend at the Checkoff, he\u2019s getting a 25 to one return and that\u2019s pretty impressive. I can\u2019t do that anywhere on my farm and my investments haven\u2019t gone near that well. So, you know, to me that kind of a return needs to be talked about. So as a personal goal, that\u2019s one of my main ones is to make sure everybody knows that their investment in us as being used well. And as far as our Board goes, there\u2019s this ongoing mission of, of support in teaching, promotion and research. And we\u2019re going to continue with all of those things head on.\nSteve Rommereim: 01:50 I mean that\u2019s, that\u2019s just what we do and what we\u2019re very, very good at. We\u2019ve got a very incredible staff. From a Board perspective, you know, the really cool stuff that we\u2019re working on and need to get released are all supporting the producers of our nation, like our Secure Pork Supply. And moving forward with a message about sustainability so that our customers and our consumers can develop more trust in what we do, in the product that we all create as pig farmers. So the Board throws itself at all of these issues and we try to do it in a responsible way that is incredibly effective because we\u2019re spending other people\u2019s money and that\u2019s top of mind for our Board. And we, I just want to encourage everybody that, you know, we, we work awful hard to be responsible at this job.\nDon Wick: 02:39 It\u2019s those 15 members on the Board making that ultimate decision, but what always impressed me is it\u2019s that grassroots producer that\u2019s involved in committees, and that\u2019s really surfacing these ideas, whether it\u2019s on research or some of the promotion projects or some of those kind of things.\nSteve Rommereim: 02:53 You Bet. I tell you what, it\u2019d be pretty arrogant for anybody on our Board to think that we\u2019re the final say on anything. Because, you know, A) it\u2019s not our money and B) we really have to use this stuff effectively and wisely and do the things that we do that are pertinent to today. Our CEO Bill Even, one of his famous quotes is getting to be is \u201cwe have to move at the speed of business\u201d. And I tell you what, that\u2019s a hard thing to do. This world is changing very, very fast. So moving into that digital world, moving into new messaging that are going to affect, you know, different sectors of the population, the Millennials, the Gen Z\u2019s. We\u2019re not really very good at communicating with these folks because most of us have kids in that generation, but I guarantee most of them haven\u2019t gotten figured out either.\nSteve Rommereim: 03:41 So we\u2019re developing new messaging. We\u2019re getting to the point that we feel like we\u2019re going to be very effective in those spaces. And the strategy moving forward, of course, is to get up to speed and to be able to communicate and know habits, desires, what people like, and then you can effectively market when it comes to the promotion side. And of course a great part of that is education. We have to develop that trust from those folks in our product. Nutritionally, flavor, the eating experience, all very, very important. And we keep, we keep pounding away at getting to where we need to be.\nDon Wick: 04:19 Of course, if producers have any input, they can always contact any member of the Pork Board or contact the staff themselves.\nSteve Rommereim: 04:24 Oh, you bet. You know, you go to pork.org, our bios, our phone numbers, everything. Where our intent is to be an open book. While part of the job is dealing with problems. I think everybody on our Board and all of our staff are into moving forward and dealing with problems as we go because it\u2019s the pork industry, right? There isn\u2019t a time when there\u2019s not some crisis going on, at least in my memory. And I been at this thing for a long time. So you move from crisis to crisis, but you still got to keep the boat going and make sure that it\u2019s a nimble boat, so it doesn\u2019t take three and four years to turn the thing, right? So it\u2019s really been in my mind, a very effective organization for many, many, many years.\nPodcast president Steve Rommereim\nPork Checkoff Partners with Yummly\nBlue Ribbon panel to consider antibiotic research and education priorities\nSow Housing Research",

        "raw_content": "Brendan Galbreath, who owns Aunt Catfish on the River, said the restaurant has endured because of three key factors: a strong foundation established by his father, Jim; a good location; and long-time employees.\nAmong those employees is Morris Collins, who announced he will soon retire after working for the Galbreath family for more than 40 years.\nCollins history with Aunt Catfish began before the restaurant was founded.\nIn the 1950s, Ann Galbreath founded Marko\u2019s Drive-In, which she named after her husband.\nMarko\u2019s closed for a short period of time in the 60s before her son, Jim, bought it. The 16-seat restaurant eventually gained momentum, growing to about 450 seats and serving more than 1,000 guests during the summer peak season.\nRiding on the restaurant\u2019s success, Jim purchased an old fishing dock off the Dunlawton Bridge, known as Dave\u2019s Dock, and opened Aunt Catfish on the River.\nCollins, who was 19 years old at the time, worked as the manager at Marko\u2019s, where he and his wife, Tammy, met when she was hired as a cashier.\nCollins later became the manager of Aunt Catfish, and Tammy became the office manager. He has worked there since November 1978 and witnessed the grand opening in February 1979.\nIn 1995, Jim sold Marko\u2019s, but Aunt Catfish remained. Nearly 10 years ago, his son, Brenden, took over the family business.\n\u201cI\u2019ve seen four generations of the family,\u201d Collins said. \u201cI\u2019m going to miss it, but I\u2019m ready.\u201d\nCollins said he has seen a lot of the changes, primarily growth and development. He said he remembers when the Port Orange Police Department was a trailer across the street.\nOver the years, he has enjoyed the customers above all else.\n\u201cThat\u2019s the business,\u201d he said. \u201cYou\u2019re nice to the customers, and they\u2019re nice to you.\u201d\nThough Tammy said she isn\u2019t retiring soon, she said working with the people has been the best part of the job.\nShe said the city and restaurant have grown a lot, but customers, including those who return from other states, remain the same.\n\u201cYou recognize their voices when they come in,\u201d she said.\nMany co-workers have come and gone.\nMorris said bout 300 continue cooking, washing dishes, serving, seating, prepping food and more in different shifts.\nMany employees are high school or college students working during their time off. Though they don\u2019t often return after graduating, their children eventually seek employees years down the road.\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard to put into words,\u201d Tammy said.\n\u201cIt makes me feel a little old,\u201d Morris said.\nBrendan, who began working with his father when he was 13, said it is not going to be easy letting go of Morris and Tammy.\nFor as long as he remembers, he said the pecking order was his father, Morris and him.\n\u201cAnd I\u2019m not even sure I\u2019m third,\u201d Brendan said.\nHe said Morris was instrumental in continuing Jim\u2019s legacy, and though he\u2019s retiring in February, they already are creating a list of tasks he has performed daily through the years, many unwritten.\n\u201cI hope he doesn\u2019t change his phone number,\u201d Brendan said.\nMorris, who lives in New Smyrna Beach two houses down from where Tammy grew up, said it will be hard not to come back.\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard to say how long I\u2019ll miss it,\u201d he said.",

        "title": "CurePSP Receives Matching Grant Challenge for Genetics Research - CurePSP",
        "raw_content": "Friedman family has committed up to $600,000\nNew York, NY (June 29, 2016) \u2014 CurePSP, the leading nonprofit advocacy organization focused on prime of life neurodegenerative diseases, today announced a matching grant challenge of up to $600,000 from the Friedman family to accelerate genetics research.\nAn initial contribution of $250,000 toward this goal has been made by Marcine Friedman of Sacramento, Calif., and her son, Jeffrey S. Friedman, MD, PhD, of San Diego, Calif. Dr. Friedman serves on the Board of CurePSP and chairs the Board\u2019s Research Committee.\nThe grant is an important first step toward realizing the goal of raising $4.5 million to fund what will be the definitive genetic analysis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a debilitating and invariably fatal brain disease that is increasingly a focus of medical research into the causes of neurodegeneration. The PSP Genetics Consortium involves a global team of investigators under the direction of Dr. Friedman who will sequence and analyze up to 3,000 genomes from PSP patients and controls in an effort to identify all gene variants associated with the disease. It is a collaboration between CurePSP and the Tau Consortium, which was established by the late financier and philanthropist Richard Rainwater.\nThe initial grant will be used to put in place the bioinformatics and computing resources required for large-scale sequencing. According to Dr. Friedman, \u201cWe will need to raise additional contributions to fund incremental sequencing and project completion, but this is the fastest way to generate critical data on genetics of PSP. We believe that rapidly pushing the genetics is the best way to identify new targets for the next phase of drug development to treat PSP patients.\n\u201cThis in-depth genetic analysis of PSP will complete the framework needed to better understand causes of PSP, and will play a critical role in bringing us closer to a treatment or cure,\u201d Dr. Friedman continued. \u201cThe genetic studies funded by this initiative will identify disease-associated genes and provide a tangible pathway for development of drugs to treat PSP and related disorders. Genetic variants involved in PSP have the potential to unlock the secrets of more common neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer\u2019s and Parkinson\u2019s diseases\u2014showing that our initiative is both timely and urgently needed.\u201d\n\u201cWe greatly appreciate the generosity of the Friedman family and Dr. Friedman\u2019s dedication to furthering research to find a treatment or cure for neurodegenerative diseases,\u201d said David Kemp, President of CurePSP.\nOther donors are supporting the genetics effort as well. Prof. Nicholas C. (Nico) Howson of the University of Michigan Law School recently raised more than $40,000 through an event called \u201cDickie\u2019s Ride,\u201d honoring his late father Dickie Howson, who suffered from PSP. Prof. Howson and friends cycled the length of Michigan\u2019s Lower Peninsula from Ann Arbor to Mackinac Island to raise money for the PSP Genetics Consortium.\nCurePSP also will be raising money to support the genetics effort through a campaign that offers a framed genome map from the study as a premium and membership in the PSP Genetics Consortium for individual contributions of $1,500, which will cover the cost of sequencing and analyzing one genome. Donors can go to www.crowdrise.com/curepspgeneticsconsortium to contribute.",

        "title": "A message from John, who has PSP. - CurePSP",
        "raw_content": "This beautiful article was sent to us by one of our community, John Royer, who has PSP. Thank you John, for sharing these words.\nAuthor John Royer, at his house.\nPSP is a shortened version, an acronym for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. It\u2019s a tough name to say. PSP is easier. It describes what I have.\nThe life span from diagnosis is anywhere from a few years to seven years. Of course, some people live longer than seven years.\nIt is a very annoying disease but like anything else it can be laughed at with impunity. So let me tell you my story.\nWe were on vacation. We were following the tour guide when suddenly I started to lean to my left. I could not straighten up for fifteen minutes. I had to depend on my wife to hold me as I tried to walk upright.\nOne day, on one of my walks I was proceeding down a steep hill when I started to accelerate. I could not control my walking. I could not stop and I could not slow down. Eventually I fell and managed to struggle to my feet and get home.\nIronically, a man a few feet from me saw me fall and immediately went into his house. He did not come out again.\nI went to my doctor and got a diagnosis of Parkinson\u2019s disease. Wonderful, I was going from bad to worse. He prescribed something called L-Dopa. That was disaster personified. The medicine gave me a psychosis that made me feel that my wife was running around on me. That was pretty funny since, in retirement, we were always together plus we were in our early 70s and we had been married since 1968 without any issues of infidelity. I quit taking it on my own and the psychosis disappeared.\nMy wife was relieved because she was really getting sick of my stupid ideas.\nI felt like a jackass.\nI started to have falls at home and could not get up without the assistance of the ambulance corps. The police helped also. This necessitated a trip to the hospital followed by CAT scans which showed that there was nothing wrong.\nWhen my wife and I took short walks she would ask me to look at something to the left or right and I would get annoyed. She thought I was being rude. I told her that when I looked left or right I started to lose my balance and feared falling.\nI started to notice that I had a new problem which was hard to explain. Standing up became hard and balancing as I stood up was just as aggravating. Either I was getting heavier or the force of gravity had increased. Knowing the laws of physics I decided that that wasn\u2019t the problem. The earth remained the same. My weight was the same so it wasn\u2019t that either. I was at my normal weight of 215 pounds. I used to be 5 feet 10 \u00bd inches tall but gravity had shrunk me to five feet 9 inches. Gravity could do that due to spinal disc compression but it couldn\u2019t account for the fresh problem of standing up and keeping my balance.\nI wished I was Sherlock Holmes so I could account for this anomaly.\nI was most annoyed.\nI noticed the same thing happened when I mowed the lawn. One time I got on my knees to adjust the height of the wheels and found that I couldn\u2019t stand up. I looked around to see if anyone noticed my dilemma. Luckily there was no one outside. I tried to use the handle of the mower to stand up. It was very difficult to do because as soon as I leaned on the handle, the front of the mower tipped upward. I had to lean on the front of the mower and the handle in order to get to a squatting position. Then I had to slowly stand leaning slightly on the handle so that it would not tip the mower. Eventually, I stood up only to see the building in front of me spin vertically. Everything in front of me was going down. I had to stand for a few seconds until the world stabilized.\nI must have looked like a real idiot.\nLooking up after looking down became a fearsome experience. I tried an electrolyte drink and drank half a bottle before cutting the grass and half a bottle before cutting the rest. It seemed to work. But it did not last. I went to my doctor and he suggested taking an antihistamine before I started the lawn. That helped a little bit but it didn\u2019t continue to aid me. I ended up going to a neurologist who suggested that it was my diabetes. That didn\u2019t make much sense to me. I continued the same way and life became very confusing. Perhaps it was my circulation. Perhaps it was my old age. I didn\u2019t like that idea. I started to pay someone to cut the grass and agreed to have him do the snow when it came in the winter.\nIt seemed like Mother Nature was playing a joke on me.\nI decided that Mother Nature was a jerk.\nMy Doctor now told me that I had an inner ear problem and I went for vestibular therapy and started taking Meclizine. That didn\u2019t help either so I stopped the medication. The therapist also said that my inner ear was fine.\nMy dizziness upon getting up and turning my head rapidly got worse. Double vision when I looked left and right started up and really messed up my attitude. I had never taken illegal drugs and I don\u2019t drink so that wasn\u2019t it. Perhaps I was going nuts. I decided that driving was not a good idea and gave it up.\nI told my wife that I didn\u2019t want her to worry because I saw two of her when I looked to the side. When I looked at her to the right or left I saw two of her, one above the other. She asked me which one looked better, the top or the bottom one. I told her it was the top one.\nWe both laughed. We were so stressed that we had to do something silly to diffuse the tension.\nWe got an appointment with a cardiologist and I stopped taking walks. I got a cardiac catheterization test. He called the next day and told me that the test that he had given me was terrible and asked me to stop in. He told me that I had severe blockages and that I needed open-heart surgery the next day. This was of course an unsettling experience. But I went ahead and had the operation. It was an awful experience which I will not be discussing here.\nThey sent me to cardiac rehabilitation and I felt that I could barely walk so I got a walker from them. I progressed superbly and after about a week was sent home with a walker.\nAll the previous problems got worse. My unknown ailment had increased, something that I understood happened sometimes after open-heart surgery. My current disease exacerbated. It went with the territory because open-heart surgery was an extraordinarily severe surgery.\nAfter arriving home, my serious illness got worse and I went to a wheelchair. Eventually I ended up at an eye doctor who specialized in unusual problems and he suggested that I see a doctor down at the University of Pennsylvania who specialized in weird problems.\nAn M.R.I. was performed. The Penn specialist read it and from him I heard the fateful words. \u201cYou have Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and it will kill you.\u201d\nHe even told me how to spell it.\nMost people don\u2019t know how they are going to die but I did.\nFalling was an interesting experience. One day I was trying to use my walker. The wheelchair would have been better. This was a bad idea but I am a stubborn guy. The police/ambulance corps was called many times to pick me off the floor and get me on to a stretcher. The ambulance rides were always interesting. I got to meet new people and get a free ride. Then it was off to the CAT scan room because I usually hit my head when I fell and had to be checked out.\nLots of falls.\nI joked a lot with everyone because it lightened the mood.\nHowever, another MRI scan showed that I had had a stroke at some time unknown to them. Eventually I started to get flaky and used irrational words on my wife. That really got me down. In February I decided to end it all. My insulin would do the trick, I thought.\nAnother ambulance ride got me to the hospital and I stayed a week in the psych ward and was treated for extreme depression and despondency. I was told that the odd thoughts were caused by the stroke.\nI had a new problem.\nI started working out at a rehabilitation gym that has helped me greatly. I started with a week of official rehabilitation and then graduated to the gym on my own. It is a great place with lots of friendly people some of which are in worse shape than I am. I walked around staggering from machine to machine and worked especially on my legs to help with my walking. I can use 400 pounds on the leg press machine that has strengthened my legs tremendously. I still have my terrible times in the morning when I get up and get dizzy and I stagger but I manage. I can even get my own breakfast now before my wife gets up. It is a real joy staggering from countertop to countertop but somehow I manage to do it.\nSome days I can\u2019t wait for Mary to get up and get my breakfast for me.\nLife is much easier that way.\nEventually, I no longer needed the wheelchair except for long visits to the store with my wife. Short excursions necessitated the walker. At home, I just walked and I look like Frankenstein\u2019s monster with my bad gait. PSP gives you really stiff legs when you\u2019re walking. Your knee barely bends.\nI tried eye therapy but I soon gave it up after a few months. I can only say that it is a waste of time but it is interesting to see that the things that they have tried to use for PSP on a computer screen can be fun as well as work. Beveled lens glasses can correct the left and right double vision but when your vision changes, as it will, you have to spend more money for new glasses.\nThe University of Pennsylvania requested that my regular doctor send them my medical progress probably because of my unusual ailment and their research needs. I agreed because if I can help in the conquering of this miserable disease I shall.\nIn the meantime I have to joke about the double vision. It is the funniest part of this disease.\nFor example, seeing two cars on the left or right coming toward me. That really convinced me that I cannot ever drive safely again. My wife was my chauffeur permanently. I will not risk our lives and the lives of innocent people because I think I\u2019m tough enough to overcome my disease and its consequent double vision.\nAt least I can still read and I am a voracious reader. Straight-ahead vision gives me no problem and for that I am grateful. I also can use the computer as I\u2019m doing right now which is super.\nNot bad for a 71 year old guy with PSP and diabetes.\nA good thing is that Mary is a retired nurse and my best friend. She is a great wife with a super sense of humor.\nI hope you have enjoyed my narrative and I hope you have laughed now and then. My purpose for the interjection of humor is because it is futile to spend the remainder of your life feeling sorry for yourself.",

        "raw_content": "VA \u00bb Health Care \u00bb PTSD: National Center for PTSD \u00bb Providers \u00bb Treatment \u00bb The Impact of Disaster on Older Adults\nThe Impact of Disaster on Older Adults\nResearch has been mixed about whether older adults are at higher risk for post-traumatic psychopathology. Normative aging suggest older adults may be at lesser risk because they have had a lifetime to develop coping abilities. However, with chronological aging comes health decline and other factors that may leave older adults more vulnerable during and after a disaster.\nWhat Are the Risk and Protective Factors Associated with Aging?\nBrown, Rothman, and Norris (2007) reported that chronological age is a poor predictor of the need for mental health care services following a disaster. They argue that the most important factors for the use of post-disaster services include the individual\u2019s pre-disaster health status, social networks, and the availability of health-sustaining resources (1). Many older adults are quite resilient in the face of disasters, and older adults may be an under-recognized source of resilience and response in time of crisis (2-4).\nHowever, about 80% of older adults have at least one chronic condition that makes them more vulnerable than those without a chronic health problem during a disaster. These chronic conditions, combined with the physiological, sensory, and cognitive changes experienced as part of aging, may result in frail older adults having special needs during emergencies (5).\nA meta-analytic review found that older adults were 2.11 times more likely to experience PTSD symptoms and 1.73 times more likely to develop adjustment disorder when exposed to natural disasters as compared to younger adults (6). A recent longitudinal study found that while age alone was not a significant predictor of psychological outcomes, older individuals with low income, low social support, and high levels of solitary religious participation are at greater risk; and, perceived social support seemed to be the key factor in terms of positive mental health outcomes (7).\nOther related risk factors may play a role in increased incidence of PTSD, such as prior exposure to extreme traumatic stressors, difficulty re-establishing income and savings, institutionalization, cognitive limitations, female gender, and lack of or loss of social support (1,6,8). Another longitudinal study of recently affected older adults found that the majority (78.7%) had low/no PTSD symptoms across all assessment points; 16.0% had chronic, clinically significant symptoms; and 5.3% had a delayed onset course of clinically significant symptoms. Those with chronic and delayed symptoms were more likely to have greater severity of disaster exposure, and greater number of traumas and stressors since this disaster. Having some college or higher education was protective, reporting a negative association with the chronic and delayed symptom trajectory (9).\nWhat Are Recommended Strategies for Working with Older Adults Following Disaster?\nIn order to best serve older adults following disaster, advocates for this demographic should participate in community-wide emergency preparedness. Having professionals from diverse fields working and training in these coalitions will produce the best outcomes.\nRecommended strategies when assisting older adults post-disaster include (1,6,8-10):\nMinimizing disruption to disability and health services on which older people rely\nDesigning shelters that are accessible for older persons\nCreating contact systems that enable checks on the well-being of older adults\nDeveloping triage systems that allow rapid reconnection with family and provision of basic needs\nUsing community mapping data to identify areas where many older adults live\nEstablishing continued monitoring and timely intervention for disaster-affected older persons, particularly those with lower levels of education, disaster-related physical injury or illness, high level of community disruption, and financial distress\nFostering organizational linkages\nBolstering social support across individuals, families, and communities at large\nProviding financial resources for older adults who do not have the funds to manage post-disaster expenses\nProvision of mental health services for older adults may require special efforts to address systematic and personal barriers to treatment. Elderly individuals may be less likely to admit to feeling overwhelmed or distressed. The stigma of mental health treatment and the belief that only the mentally ill require such treatment may hinder effective provision of services.\nEducating older adults about the nature of reactions to disaster and mental health treatment, informing them about community resources, and identifying lessons learned and potentially positive outcomes may be helpful. Any interventions should take into account travel, mobility, cognitive, and stamina limitations (1,8,11).\nBrown, L., Rothman, M., & Norris, F. (2007).

Order delays and cancellations totaling around EUR 140 million have negatively affected the German manufacturer\u0092s business. A major restructuring is underway, particularly in the solar segment, the key details of which are set to be unveiled on December 10.\nFollowing a number of incoming order delays in its electronics and energy storage segments, particularly in China, and the cancelation of a bulk order in its electronics division worth around \u008012 million, all in the first six months of 2015, Manz has seen its earnings plummet.\nOverall net loss for the first three quarters of the year has fallen from \u0080-0.8 million in 2014 to \u0080-33.8 million. EBITDA recorded a massive loss, of \u008020.6 million euros, down on the gain of \u008019.6 million a year ago; while EBIT totaled \u0080-30.1 million euros, compared to \u00801.5 million.\nRevenues also fell, from \u0080250.9 million to just \u0080169 million. Of this, the solar segment generated around \u008017.2 million euros or 10.2% of total revenues, up from \u00809.3 million or 3.7% in 2014.\nThe energy storage segment saw very positive revenues of \u008055.6 million, representing 32.9% of total revenues, up significantly from \u008012.2 million or 4.9%. Marking the biggest revenue loss was Manz\u0092s electronics segment, which saw revenues tumble from \u0080189.4 million or 75.5% last year, to \u008065.3 million, or 38.7% this year.\nOn the back of the order situation, Manz revised its full year revenues forecast down in July, from between \u0080320 million to \u0080340 million, to between \u0080200 million and 210 million. Then at the end of last month, it announced a restructuring program, under which it would assess the future of its solar segment.\nThe company informed pv magazine in a statement at the time that the options being considered were: to find a strategic investor; to find a buyer for the solar technology portfolio; and in the worst case, to close down its solar operations.\nIt expanded today by saying, \"the Managing Board is examining options for the Solar segment since negotiations concerning the sale of a CIGSfab are drawing out longer than expected. The goal is that beginning with the fiscal year 2016, no further cost burden will arise from this segment.\" Manz expects to present the key measures and associated expenses related to the restructuring this December 10. Overall, the company will focus on its electronics and energy storage segments.\n\"In the course of the restructuring program, it will be essential to the success of our company that we significantly increase planning reliability, transparency and flexibility within the Group so that we can better manage the risks associated with cancellations of large-scale orders,\" commented CEO and founder, Dieter Manz. \"I firmly believe that together we will overcome these challenges.\"",

I\u2019d get rid of cancer. Can we end poverty? No more hate. No more racism. I\u2019d end all the wars. I\u2019d take away death.\nNone of these things existed in the Garden of Eden. The Garden was how God intended the world to be but sin brought brokenness, not only humanity\u2019s relationship with God, but also brokenness to the creation itself (Romans 8:22). God has not given up on what He started in this creation. He wants to restore it. He wants to make it new again. He wants to be present to His creation again as He was in the Garden.\nThe prophetic imagination of Isaiah envisions a new world where there is no longer a need for swords or spears (1:4) and where predator and prey will live in harmony together. This prophetic imagination is looking forward to the coming of Christ, the Son of David, who will put the world back to right again under His reign.\nThis is what we celebrate in Easter, the Resurrection of Jesus Christ! This week, as we prepare of Easter, prepare your heart, mind, and soul, for the resurrected life we\u2019re called to live. We have not received the Resurrection fully but we live our God\u2019s Resurrection reality while we wait for it patiently. God\u2019s mission for you and for His Church is to live with Resurrection Imagination. We imagine how the world will be in the Resurrection and begin working towards that reality. What does it mean to bring peace to the chaos you see around you? To bring reconciliation to the divides this broken world sets in place? What does it look like to create communities of peace where people recognize the Kingdom of God? This is the mission God has for His Church. We celebrate it in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. We participate in it in the receiving of Baptism and the Lord\u2019s Supper. We live it out in community that looks and acts differently from the chaotic world around us.\nTagged: Easter, Isaiah, Resurrection, mission",

In the 17th and 18th centuries, most people were what are called \u201cDeists\u201d who believed that God was up in his heaven and we are here on earth. If he did in fact create the world, he has retreated to his heaven and no longer has any interaction with this world anymore. This thinking about God steadily transformed into the explicit atheism of the 19th and 20th centuries. With an increasing amount of the culture claiming that God doesn\u2019t exist, Christians have felt the need to \u201cprove\u201d the existence of God and in turn the existence of Jesus as God. This is a wild oversimplification of the shifts in Western culture over the last handful of centuries but I simply want to provide the context for why we mat read scripture a certain way. Within this mindset, we\u2019ve looked to the Gospels to \u201cprove\u201d that Jesus is God. Scholarship spent a great deal of time sorting out that John\u2019s Gospel presents Jesus as divine and the other three do not. The conclusion they often came to is that John was written later than therefore Christ\u2019s divinity was a belief later added to church teaching. Thankfully, the shift in scholarship today is moving away from this kind of thinking about the Gospels. Each Gospel writer presents Jesus as divine but they often do so through a Jewish lens and we simply miss it. Instead of looking for the moments in the Gospels and pointing and shouting, \u201cHe\u2019s divine!!\u201d I want to encourage us to read through the Gospels as the story of how YHWH (GOD) came back to his people at last. He did so in Jesus Christ!\nMonday \u2013 Isaiah 40:1-11; Malachi 3:1-5; Mark 1:1-13\n- Reading Isaiah and Malachi, who is the way being prepared for?\n- What is Mark communicating about the identity of Jesus in quoting Isaiah and Malachi at the beginning of his gospel account?\n- What does Isaiah 40:10-11 tell you about God? About Jesus? Take a moment to meditate on this image of who God is in Jesus. Sit in God\u2019s presence as Shepherd and allow yourself to be sheep for a moment. How does this change how you view life? How does this change how you view God? Jesus?\nTuesday \u2013 Exodus 19:1-11; (ch20-23 are the exchanging of vows for the relationship between God and the Tribes) 24:1-4; Mark 1:16-20, 2:13-17, 3:13-19.\n\u201cMark\u2019s Jesus goes about doing and saying things that declare that Israel\u2019s God is now becoming king \u2013 Israel\u2019s dream come true. But Jesus is talking about God becoming king in order to explain the things he himself is doing. He isn\u2019t pointing away from himself to God. He is pointing to God in order to explain his own actions.\u201d \u2013 N.T. Wright, How God Became King, p.92\n- With Exodus 19 and 24 fresh in your mind, what is Mark doing in his gospel account with the story of Jesus? What would a first century Jew see in these passages about Jesus?\n- The imagery Mark is leaning on shifts the view of Jesus from being the one who leads the 12 to the one who calls them into existence and gives them their status and role. This is what God was doing in Exodus. Think about who Jesus called to be the 12. How does Jesus \u201ccalling them into existence and giving them their status and role\u201d change their identity and their ability to follow Jesus?\n- There was nothing significant about Israel other than the fact that God chose them. They were a messed up people chosen to help redeem a messed up world. Who did Jesus choose to partner with him in redeeming this broken world? Mark 2:17 \u2013 Who did Jesus come for? Who are \u201csick\u201d people that you struggle to care about?\n- You are a messed up person. God/Jesus calls you to follow him. He changes your role and your status as one who is called. Take time to reflect on your life. What areas of your life need to be shaped by this identity of one who is called?\n- Side Note: When looking at who the 12 are, or more specifically who they are not, we have often focused on the fact that they are not women. The tribes are organized by male clan leaders, which was custom in a patriarchal culture. Focusing on the gender of the 12 often draws focus away from the major point that Jesus choosing the 12 was to celebrate God\u2019s faithfulness to Israel. This is symbolized in the 12 being chosen. Therefore, it is important when focusing on \u201cwho God did not choose\u201d that we recognize that he did not choose any Gentiles. The focus is less on who can be in leadership and more on what the 12 symbolizes in Jesus\u2019 mission: God is faithful to Israel and has returned.\nWednesday \u2013 Ps. 65:5-8, 89:8-9, 107:28-32; Mark 4:35-41\nThere aren\u2019t just prophetic passages pointing to Jesus coming but Jesus embodies and acts in ways that point to what the Jews would expect of God to return. What was unexpected was that God would come in the form of a person. Read these passage from Psalms. They disciples would know these Psalms by heart. Place yourself in the boat with the disciples with these Psalms in mind.\n- They call him teacher but after his actions with the storm they ask, \u201cWho is this?\u201d What are some ways you view Jesus that need to be challenged by the actions you see him doing in the Gospels?\n- When was the last time you sat back and simply asked, \u201cWho is this? Even the wind and waves obey him!\u201d Take a moment to ask God to open your eyes to how He is working in the world so that you will continually challenge and expand your view of who He is. My view of God is often and always too small because I limit my view to my experience. Allow the question of \u201cWho is this?\u201d to work on you.\n- With the \u201cWho is this?\u201d question in mind, read Mark 5 from the disciples\u2019 perspective.\nThursday \u2013 Psalm 22 and Mark 15:21-41\nI want to continue to echo that the Gospels are not stories to \u201cprove\u201d that \u201cJesus is God\u201d but that they tell a story about God coming back in person to rescue his people. This is a slight shift in thinking but moves us from working out \u201ctheory\u201d and moves us into seeing the larger narrative that Jesus is acting in. Mark doesn\u2019t seem too concerned with giving us answers in the form of theory. We theorize about what is going on when Jesus (God-in-flesh) cries out from the cross a cry of anguish and abandonment. Mark simply invites you to pay attention to the story. He invites you to come live in it and allow the story to shift the ground on which you are standing.\n- We\u2019ve talked about God returning in the form of Jesus to redeem his people. What are the implications of \u201cKing of the Jews\u201d being posted above him on the cross?\n- \u201cMy God, my God, why have you forsaken me?\u201d \u2013 What is your reaction to this at first blush? How does your reading of it change after reading all of Psalm 22? What is Mark communicating?\n- Jesus was called \u201cGod\u2019s Son\u201d at his baptism (1:11) and now called \u201cGod\u2019s Son\u201d by the centurion. There are political implications to this which we will talk about in two weeks. The term \u201cGod\u2019s son\u201d would have at least four meanings for Mark and the early Christians:\n1. In the OT, Israel itself is called \u201cGod\u2019s son\u201d (Ex. 4:22; Jer. 31:9)\n2. The messiah, Israel\u2019s anointed king, is \u201cGod\u2019s son.\u201d This seems to be the primary meaning in the baptism story (2 Sam 7:12-14; Ps. 2:7; 89:26-27)\n3. \u201cSon of God\u201d was a title regularly taken by Roman emperors from Augustus onward.\n4. In Jesus, Israel\u2019s God had become present, a human, living in the midst of his people, setting up his kingdom, taking on the full weight of the chaos of this broken creation, and conquered death to bring about his new creation in the resurrection. This view of Jesus as \u201cGod\u2019s Son\u201d came along very quickly in early Christianity.\n- With these four views of \u201cSon of God\u201d in mind, what implications do you see in the centurion\u2019s proclamation?\n- Who does Mark say is with Jesus at his death on the cross? Where are the apostles? Why does Mark go out of his way to list off all of the women who were there?\nFriday \u2013 Luke 19:11-48\n- 19:11-26 \u2013 Context \u201cHe went on to tell them a parable, because he was near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at once.\u201d Read this parable with our discussion in mind that Jesus is God who has come back to Jerusalem. The meaning of the parable is that this is the time when God was coming back (in Jesus), coming back finally to see what his people have done with their centuries-old commission.\n- How does this make you read this parable differently? If Christ were to visit today, how well have we done with our commission? Also, what is our commission (try not to settle for a quick Sunday school answer)?\n- Jesus then enters Jerusalem as king. He tells the parable above to explain what was going on when he himself was arriving in Jerusalem. Jesus then enters the Temple and cleanses it. What does the parable tell you about Jesus\u2019 actions in 19:28-48? How do Jesus\u2019 actions shape how you read this parable? How does the parable shape how you view Jesus\u2019 actions?\n- If you would like, keep reading in Luke\u2019s Gospel account and see how the text comes to life with Jesus\u2019 action as God who comes back to Israel. His acted out parable in the Temple of its destruction leads to the long discourse in Luke 21 about the destruction of the Temple (pointing to 70AD when Titus marches in with his army and destroys it).",

        "raw_content": "\"Puck Cancer\" fundraising game set for Saturday in honour of late student\nGame aims to raise money for Carley\u2019s Angels, Princess Margaret\nJordan Coccimiglio, one of the organizers of the event, has registered two goals and two assists this season.\n(Left to right) Meaghan Taylor, Holly Mathias and Jordan Coccimiglio have been working since June to put on the contest.\nStephanie Nijhuis\nWhen Jordan Coccimiglio and the men\u2019s hockey team take the ice against McGill this Saturday, they\u2019ll be doing so in memory of a former Queen\u2019s student.\nCarley Allison passed away earlier this year after a lengthy battle with clear cell sarcoma. The second annual men\u2019s hockey charity game this Saturday takes on a more somber tone than the contest last season, which was held in support of her ongoing treatment. Allison sang the national anthem that night.\nThe Carley\u2019s Angels Foundation created in her memory provides financial support for families with terminally ill children who need assistance paying hospital bills and other expenses. This season, Allison\u2019s anthem from her appearance at a Toronto Maple Leafs game on Hockey Night in Canada will be played in her honour.\nCoccimiglio, a third-year forward, and Meaghan Taylor, ArtSci \u201916, are the two main student organizers of the second Puck Cancer fundraising game. Coccimiglio and Taylor have been working on the game since June, with proceeds going to the Carley\u2019s Angels Foundation and Princess Margaret Hospital\u2019s research initiatives.\nAlthough Carley is certainly the focus of the event, the organizers are hoping their reach is as wide as possible.\n\u201cWe want to make it a community event, attracting anyone that\u2019s ever had cancer of all types,\u201d Coccimiglio said. \u201cWe don\u2019t want it \u2026 [to be] about one form of cancer. We want everyone on campus coming together.\u201d\nThe Gaels come into the game with an 8-3 record while McGill is ranked first in the country at 12-2.\nAs one of the team\u2019s biggest rivals, Coccimiglio knows first-hand the importance of a victory in the contest. The Redmen knocked Queen\u2019s out in the second round of the playoffs last year while also beating them twice in the regular season. However, Coccimiglio believes the team has improved enough to bring the Gaels closer to defeating their rivals.\n\u201cWe have a competitive team this year,\u201d he said. \u201cIt should be a good game.\u201d\nWith a goal of raising $10,000, Coccimiglio and Taylor have their work cut out for them. But they\u2019re not in it alone.\n\u201cIt\u2019s been a long process, but everyone\u2019s been very helpful,\u201d Coccimiglio said. He praised his teammates, men\u2019s hockey head coach Brett Gibson and sponsors for their involvement in the process.\nAs students get into the game for free, the organizers have found creative ways to fundraise through sponsorships, with the hope of drawing students to the game through a number of giveaways and contests.\nCorporate sponsors have been in abundance, the most notable being Air Canada, which has offered two free tickets anywhere in Canada to the winner of an in-game paper plane toss. Boston Pizza has also donated a pizza a month for a year to the winner of the raffle.\nOn top of their offers, Head Coach Gibson sent in Ottawa Senators tickets four rows behind the bench for the Dec. 27 game against Boston Bruins as part of the raffle as well.\nThough Carley\u2019s story is known only to a few, the cancer that took her life is familiar to many.\n\u201cCancer\u2019s touched everyone directly or indirectly,\u201d Taylor said. \u201cCarley has touched thousands of people\u2019s lives through her singing and her positive outlook on life. It\u2019s not only a personal game in her memory, but it\u2019s a personal game for everyone on the ice and in the audience.\u201d\nCarley Allison\nMeaghan Taylor",

        "title": "Charles Cooper's Railway Pages - Haldimand and Norfolk Counties",
        "raw_content": "With helpful critique and input from David O'Reilly.\nTowards the mid-19th century, Haldimand and Norfolk Counties were destined for abundant attention from railway builders and promoters, as these counties' geographic location was pivotal to the emerging importance of southwestern Ontario for both portage (between Lakes Huron, Erie and Ontario) and border-to border (between Niagara Falls/Fort Erie and Windsor/Sarnia) traffic. The major players were the Buffalo, Brantford & Goderich (later the Buffalo & Lake Huron), Great Western, Grand Trunk and Canada Southern Railways.\nBorder-to-Border Transshipment\nand the Issue of Gauge\nFor all of the counties of southwestern Ontario between New York and Michigan States, the US realization of faster shipping between those two states through what is now Ontario, stimulated railway development in a frenzy of competition involving the consequent operating challenge between the enforced 5\u20196\u201d Broad or \u201cProvincial Gauge\u201d in what was then Canada West (formerly Upper Canada), and the already-adopted 4\u2019 8\u00bd\u201d Standard Gauge (with the notable exception of the Erie Railroad with a 6\u2019 gauge that was not converted to the Standard Gauge until 1880) of the surrounding major US railroads.\nBriefly, the issue in Canada West was that railways seeking government loan interest guarantees were obliged to adopt the 5' 6\" gauge. The reasons for, and the complications and outcome of, the adoption of that gauge are examined in detail at my page Railway Gauges in Ontario.\nThe first railway to cross the former Haldimand County was the Provincial Gauge Buffalo, Brantford & Goderich Railway (BB&G). The reasons for its formation were a combination of Brantford's need for a railway and Buffalo's interest in reaching into what was then Canada West, but its essential intended function was as a portage railway between Goderich on Lake Huron and Buffalo on Lake Erie. It was not therefore initially a contestant in the border-to-border traffic sweepstakes. It was chartered as the Brantford & Buffalo Joint Stock Railroad Company in 1851, and became the BB&G in 1852. Brantford, miffed at being bypassed to the north by the projected Great Western Railway, commissioned a survey southeast to Fort Erie. This interest was reciprocated by Buffalo, and the railway opened to Brantford on December 20, 1853, financed in large part with municipal bonuses backed by the Province of Canada Railway Guarantee Act (elaborated on in Railway Gauges in Ontario), but also with some UK financing. Of all the railways that came to traverse Haldimand and Norfolk Counties, the BB&G was one of three early major local (i.e., promoted by local civic business interests) enterprises, the others being the Hamilton & Lake Erie and the Port Dover & Lake Huron Railways. (See further below.)\nThe BB&G entered Haldimand County at Lowbanks, with major stations at Dunnville, Canfield and Caledonia. The line was extended from Brantford to a junction with the Great Western Railway at Paris in 1854. At that point the BB&G was out of money, and the debts continued to pile up in 1855.\nIn 1856 the Buffalo & Lake Huron Railway (B&LH), with backbone UK financial support, was incorporated to take the BB&G over. The railway was completed to Stratford in 1856, and despite the financial crash of 1857, to its ultimate destination at Goderich in 1858. By 1861, the road needed a substantial capital infusion for much-needed improvements in order to stay in business; and in order to boost revenues, was considering acquisition of the Hamilton & Port Dover Railway (see below), to give it immediate access to Lake Ontario and potentially to an intermediate harbour on Lake Erie. (While the Hamilton interests were ready to have someone take the Port Dover project off their hands, this proposal fell through, because the B&LH was by then close to bankruptcy.)\nThe B&LH offered to lease itself to the Great Western Railway, but this proposal was rejected unanimously by the Great Western's London, England board of directors. While undoubtedly a sound decision from a purely economic perspective, strategically it was unfortunate, as the struggling B&LH was then drawn into the orbit of the other major competitor in southwestern Ontario, the Grand Trunk Railway.\nThe BB&G/B&LH\u2019s fundamental challenge from the outset was the low population density along its route. The portage traffic was simply not enough to sustain it at its completion to Goderich in 1858. The only centres on its route of major commercial importance were Brantford, Stratford and Goderich. While none of these three places was connected to the railway grid in 1853, by virtue of the BB&G\u2019s extension north, Brantford became connected to the GWR at Paris in 1854. The GTR reached Stratford more or less at the same time as the B&LH in 1856. Goderich\u2019s connection to the railway grid in 1858 (by virtue of the B&LH\u2019s completion) thus came with a built-in alternative access to the emerging railway network and markets of Ontario (then Canada West) through the arrival of the GTR at Stratford. These connections all served to syphon off traffic from a railway that was already in financial straits by 1855, and whose financial woes continued to deepen throughout its renaissance as the B&LH in 1856.\nSo a share of the border-to-border traffic was a potential lifeline, but the railway was already too financially strapped to make its share of the necessary capital outlay happen as an independent road. It could not even make it happen with the eventual joint management agreement with the GTR in 1864 (which effectively brought the B&LH under control of the GTR). The death throes as a nominally independent road continued for a few more years, and the GTR assumed outright control under a perpetual lease in 1870.\nGrand Trunk Railway (GTR)\nPlease read in conjunction with Railway Gauges in Ontario.\nThe British-owned and backed Provincial Gauge GTR had emerged in 1852 as a major railway that was coincidentally destined to become a dominant economic and social force in Upper Canada, even though its grand design was to be a trunk railway link between Portland, Maine and a US Midwest terminus at Chicago, Illinois. Construction on its geographically-necessary Montreal-Toronto main line began in 1853, and the first trains in each direction passed each other in October 1856.\nBy late 1859, the GTR had reached Sarnia via Guelph and Stratford. It became the second railway presence in the former Haldimand County through an emerging alliance with the B&LH. While the Grand Trunk's primary business focus was its Portland-Chicago trunk line, it needed feeder traffic and revenue from any source contiguous with its mainline. The border-to-border traffic was therefore an obvious target. To offer competition to the Great Western, the GTR developed a plan to cut into the profits to be made from that traffic more effectively with an inside Standard Gauge rail to its Provincial Gauge track. This would expedite this traffic with the through movement of US railroad Standard Gauge cars rather than by means of the expensive unloading and reloading at each end. The GTR's contribution was to be between Stratford and Sarnia. In alliance with the B&LH (see above under the \"Buffalo, Brantford & Goderich Railway [BB&G\"]), the route would become complete with the corresponding third rail between Fort Erie and Stratford.\nUnfortunately, the B&LH could not come up with the necessary capital, and in 1864 entered into a joint management agreement with the Grand Trunk in exchange for the necessary financial support to bring the plan about. Even then, the B&LH could not pull its financial weight, and after some infighting, bickering and acrimony, in accordance with an agreement ratified in 1870, the Grand Trunk acquired the B&LH under a perpetual lease [i.e., outright] effective July 1, 1869.\nThe inside rail never came about for the B&LH, and therefore not for the GTR either.\nThe GTR's eventual solution to the \"mixed gauge\" challenge was the use of an ingenious moveable axle system, and later the exchange of bogie trucks (complete two-axle wheel assemblies) on the car bodies. These devices however were not able to offer real competition to the simplicity of the GWR's third rail.\nBy 1872, the issue of the Provincial Gauge had become moot, and competition for the border-to-border traffic then became a pure standard gauge slugfest as to which carrier could move the freight across southern Ontario in the shortest possible time.\nThe overall length of the GTR's Buffalo - Stratford - Sarnia route was 197 miles.\nThe GWR was, although substantially financed by British investors (as most early railways in Canada were), an all-Canadian venture. Conceived as early as 1834 as the London & Gore Railroad, the passing of the Railway Guarantee Act in 1849 was the trigger for the newly-transformed GWR to start construction in the expectation of becoming the premier railway gateway to the American Midwest as the southwestern Ontario trunk link between the New York Central and the Michigan Central Railroads. Its intended major purpose from the outset was the US border-to-border traffic between Niagara Falls and Windsor (with a branch from Komoka to Sarnia in 1858).\nThe GWR opened in 1853/4 from Niagara Falls via Hamilton, Paris, Woodstock, London, Komoka, Glencoe, Chatham and Windsor. The Provincial Gauge had not been in its best interest from the outset, as its main source of traffic was intended to be U.S. (Standard Gauge) border-to-border traffic. Despite that, the GWR did well at first, even though the cost of transshipment was a significant impediment to economy and speed. When competition for the US border-to-border traffic intensified in 1864 with the GTR's agreement with the Buffalo & Lake Huron road, by 1867 the GWR had installed a third rail all the way along its main line route to facilitate US (Standard Gauge) through traffic, with the same object of saving the time and expense of unloading and reloading.\nWhen the proposed Canada Southern Railway (see below) promised to increase competition for this lucrative traffic even further with a substantially shorter route than the GWR's main line; despite its own systemic financial strictures, the GWR, not so far a player in Haldimand-Norfolk, had no choice except to come up with its own more direct route.\nIn 1869, the GWR obtained a charter for its \"Canada Air Line\", to diverge from its main line at Glencoe (southwest of London) and to cut across southwestern Ontario, entering the former Norfolk County just south of Tillsonburg, with stations at Courtland, Delhi, Nixon, Simcoe, Renton, then in Haldimand County at Jarvis, Nelles Corners, Decewsville, Cayuga and Canfield. There it had hoped to come to an arrangement with the Buffalo & Lake Huron for running rights over the latter's track to Fort Erie. With that railway however now part of the competing GTR, the GWR had to run its own line all the way through to the international border at Fort Erie (also obtaining running rights over a portion of the Welland Railway from Welland Junction to reach equidistant Niagara Falls as well).\nCompleted and opened in 1873 almost simultaneously with the Canada Southern Railway (CSR), the \"Canada Air Line\" more or less paralleled the Canada Southern's track, passing out of Haldimand County east of Moulton station. Both the CSR and the GWR's Air Line were built to the Standard Gauge.\nThe GWR's faster overall route between Windsor and Fort Erie was now slightly shorter (226 miles) than that of the CSR between Windsor and Fort Erie (228 miles).\nCanada Southern Railway\nIn 1868, an Ontario charter for the Erie & Niagara Extension Railway Company was approved, with powers to build from Fort Erie via St. Thomas to either Sandwich or Windsor on the Detroit River. A year and a half later, this charter was parlayed into the Canada Southern Railway (CSR). Built to the 4 ft 8\u00bd in Standard Gauge, its object was also the US border-to-border traffic. The Canada Southern consisted of two divisions, the Western and the Eastern. Construction began from both ends in 1871, and the two met at Townsend on February 20, 1873. From the west, the new line entered Norfolk County at La Salette, with stations at Windham, Waterford, Townsend (Centre) and Villa Nova, passing into Haldimand County at Hagersville, then on to Dufferin, Cayuga, Canfield, and passing out of Haldimand County into Niagara County between Attercliffe and Perry stations.\nWhile nominally a Canadian road at the outset, it was under the influence of US backers as represented on its Board of Directors from the outset, and when it floundered in the chronic economic depression of the 1870s, came under control of the Vanderbilt empire in 1876.\nThe Great Western's \"Air Line\" and the Canada Southern Railway were the first to traverse Norfolk County.\nHamilton & Lake Erie Railway (H&LE)\nIn 19th century Ontario, all lakeshore communities recognized the development of their harbours as the key to local prosperity, even before the emergence of railways as the dominant force in the development of commerce. As early as 1835, while still a town, Hamilton had chartered the Hamilton & Port Dover Railroad in recognition of the need for traffic to be brought to its harbour to stimulate local trade of goods, produce and natural resources. At that time, the charter's intended purpose was to establish a portage link between the harbours of Port Dover and Hamilton to divert traffic from what was then the fledgling and hence very slow and congested Welland Canal.\nNothing came of that charter because of the generally unsettled economic conditions in Upper Canada at that time, until the passing of the Railway Guarantee Act (elaborated on in Railway Gauges in Ontario). This Act ushered in Canada's railway building boom, including the construction of the Great Western Railway (see above), which arrived in what was by then the City of Hamilton, on its way to Windsor. The GWR, however, was a \"through\" rather than a \"feeder\" railway. While any railway was good for business, the GWR did not address the needs of the local economy that depended on a vibrant market and its \"spin-off\" benefits of local trade and manufacture, lower retail costs and the attendant creation of additional local employment. (Noted however that, as it turned out, the GWR and its locomotive and car shops proved to be the foundation of Hamilton's steel industry.)\nSo it was that in the same year as the arrival of the Great Western Railway in Hamilton (1853), the original pioneer charter of the Hamilton & Port Dover Railroad was reactivated as the Hamilton & Port Dover Railway (H&PD. [The H&PD, unlike the GWR, did not qualify under the Railway Guarantee Act on account of its short length and was built to the Standard Gauge from the outset]).\nOne of its objects was still to establish a portage link between the harbours of Port Dover and Hamilton as a short-cut to passage through the Welland Canal, but by 1856 its other aims were now \"to facilitate and increase the local traffic [i.e., trade]\", \"to secure a portion of the freight and passenger business of the Buffalo & Lake Huron Railway and of the Grand River\" [at Caledonia], and to \"form a connection with the proposed [Canada Southern Railway (see above)] considered to be most strategic to capture the traffic from the broad agricultural belt along that proposed line\". (Note: The reference to \"the Grand River\" is likely to the Grand River Navigation Company, one of many canal companies that were being driven into bankruptcy as the railways started to take their business away.)\nIf the H&PD had been completed in the 1850s, it would certainly have succeeded in its original intention of establishing a portage link between Port Dover and Hamilton, but construction did not begin until 1856. Unfortunately the cost of scaling Hamilton Mountain had been grossly underestimated, with the result that construction ceased in 1858 for lack of funds and a dispute with the contractor, and the railway had not even reached Caledonia.\nThe project then languished and was not revived until 1869 as the Hamilton & Lake Erie Railway (H&LE) when construction resumed with a new contractor. Aside from its chronic struggle with financing, the H&LE then also had to negotiate with the Grand Trunk Railway (successor owner of the B&LH) at Caledonia and with the Canada Southern at Hagersville to cross their respective tracks. At Jarvis it also had to arrange for joint station facilities with the GWR's Air Line. Traffic commenced from Hamilton to Jarvis in 1873, with Jarvis becoming the temporary terminus.\nIt was not until 1878 that the railway passed from Haldimand County through to Norfolk County when its last leg from Jarvis to Port Dover was completed under the auspices of the Hamilton & North Western Railway (H&NW), which had assumed the H&LE in 1875 and then built its own station at Jarvis. This last leg had by then lost its original object of capturing the lake-to-lake portage traffic. There were three reasons for the port's failure to develop for significant lake traffic: the much improved third Welland Canal by then in progress; the harbour's tendency to silt up; and the necessary circuitous access to it from the Lake Erie shipping lane because of the Long Point sandbar.\nIndeed, all that was left to the H&LE/H&NW was the prospect of business to be generated from local trade, but then to add to its misfortune, a rival railway (the Port Dover & Lake Huron [see below]) had ensconced itself in Port Dover three years earlier. Not only did that railway secure for itself the prized and \"convenient to down-town\" harbour location (obliging the former to terminate with its own station at a more distant spot on the east bank of the Lynn river), but it was also a fact of pioneering railway competition that the first railway into any place usually retained the higher volume of local traffic.\n(However, Hamilton did come to benefit substantially from the railway's other later objects to attract traffic to its city [and in the early years, to some extent, its harbour]), especially with the Canada Southern at Hagersville, and to some degree with the Grand Trunk at Caledonia and Jarvis.\n(For more information on the H&LE and the H&NW, please click here for information about Hamilton's Other Railway; or for a quick summary, click here for the H&LE, and click here for the H&NW.)\nPort Dover & Lake Huron Railway\nThe Port Dover & Lake Huron Railway Company (PD&LH) had established itself in Port Dover in 1875, three years before the belated arrival of the H&LE/H&NW (see above). The PD&LH's forerunner, the scandal-ridden Woodstock & Lake Erie Railway and Harbour Company, had been created in 1848 by Woodstock interests, to build \"either a track iron or wood railroad or way over any part of the country lying between the Town of Woodstock and the harbours of Port Dover and Port Burwell inclusive on Lake Erie\". Revived in 1872 as the PD&LH, the road was completed (using the Standard 4' 8 \u00bd\" Gauge) from Port Dover via Simcoe to Woodstock by the end of 1875, making judicious use of the earlier earth works. (It crossed the GWR Air Line just north of Simcoe and passed out of Norfolk County at La Salette, intersecting there with the Canada Southern Railway). In 1875 the federal government sold the Port Dover harbour facilities to the railway for a nominal figure. In 1876, the line was opened further to Stratford, and the \"Lake Huron\" component (actually Harriston, Chesley and Wiarton) of the route was completed by means of the Stratford & Lake Huron Railway, which leased its operations to the PD&LH.\nThe South Norfolk Railway (SNR) was incorporated by local civic interests on June 23, 1887 to build from Port Rowan via the Town of Simcoe to a point on [the] Canada Southern Railway\". It was in fact built in 1888 between Port Rowan and Simcoe, connecting there with the Port Dover line, and was acquired by the Grand Trunk Railway the following year.\nMany years later, a latecomer to the scene was the Lake Erie & Northern Railway (LE&N), incorporated by Brantford business interests in 1911, to build from Port Dover via Simcoe and Brantford to Galt. It was acquired by the CPR in 1914, the same year that construction began, the line being completed by 1915. Service as an electric interurban (passenger and express [and later, freight]) line was inaugurated in 1916. At Port Dover, it joined the right-of-way of the former PD&LH (see above) to reach the GTR station (until 1947, after which the LE&N used its own station). Passenger service on the Lake Erie & Northern Railway ended on April 23, 1955.\nIn addition, there were two other railway lines that traversed the former Norfolk County. In the northwest corner, the Tillsonburg, Lake Erie & Pacific Railway (TLE&P) briefly intruded into Norfolk County on its way from Tillsonburg to Port Burwell in 1896. Also further east, the Brantford, Waterloo & Lake Erie Railway (BW&LE) was incorporated in 1885 to build from Berlin (Kitchener) via Brantford to Lake Erie. The section between Brantford and a connection with the Canada Southern at Waterford was opened in 1889, entering Norfolk County near Scotland. The line faltered after a change of ownership in the same year, and was acquired in 1892 by the newly-formed Toronto, Hamilton &Buffalo Railway (TH&B). The Brantford-Waterford stretch in fact became the TH&B's first operating section of track.\nTo the east, in Haldimand County, once the TH&B had built its main line from Hamilton to Welland, the citizens of Dunnville petitioned the TH&B for a branch from Smithville, and this resulted in the incorporation of the Erie & Ontario Railway Company (E&O) to build from Port Maitland to Smithville via Dunnville. It was promptly assumed by the TH&B and opened for traffic in 1916. The TH&B by means of its TH&B Navigation Company then operated a freight ferry service between Port Maitland, Ont., and Ashtabula, Ohio from 1916 until 1932.\nOriginal BB&G route\nLowbanks in the GTR era - the first stop westbound of the pioneer Buffalo, Brantford & Goderich Railroad in Haldimand County.\nAn eastbound GTR passenger train at the Dunnville station on the former Buffalo & Lake Huron line. Circa 1900.\nThis location was for many years one of the busier railway crossings in southern Ontario. In this view, the eastbound Dunnville Sub. of the former Buffalo & Lake Huron Railway bisects in quick succession the former Canada Southern Railway, and also the former GWR \"Air Line\". The station is a country Grand Trunk Railway station with a generous angular platform serving both its Fort Erie-Dunnville-Caledonia-Brantford-Goderich and its Fort Erie-Cayuga-Jarvis-St. Thomas lines. The tower guards the Canada Southern/Michigan Central (later CASO Sub.) It was destroyed in a derailment ca 1959.",

        "raw_content": "Where Did Canada Post Go Wrong?\nPosted on December 16, 2013 by Sean Cooper\t3 Comments\nThe convenience of mail delivered directly to your front door could soon be a thing of the past. Canada Post is looking to make door-to-door delivery go the way of the milkman, by phasing it out by 2019. With a projected loss of $1 billion by 2020, changes were needed, but few expected them to be this drastic.\nCommunity mailboxes have been around for decades in rural areas, but they\u2019ll soon be a staple in major urban centres like Toronto and Vancouver. That\u2019s not all \u2013 the price of stamps will skyrocket to as much as a dollar each. These changes will not only be a major inconvenience for a lot of Canadians \u2013 small business owners who rely the post office could be hard hit.\nNew Security Concerns\nAbout a third of Canadians in urban centres today receive home delivery \u2013 that will be phased out over the next five years, starting in 2014 and replaced with the community mailboxes. Stolen mail is one of the leading causes of identity theft \u2013 with community mailboxes seemingly out in the open, they could be a treasure trove for thieves looking to steal your personal data. There is one shred of good news \u2013 parcels will be dropped at community mailboxes, so you\u2019ll no longer have to travel to a postal outlet.\nDelivery Killed By Digital\nWith the ubiquity of technology, such as laptops, smartphones and tablets, mail volumes took a nose dive, down nearly 25 per cent per household in the past five years alone. With fewer letters being delivered, it should come as no surprise fewer workers are needed. 6,000 to 8,000 jobs will be lost over the next five years, mostly through retirement, as 15,000 workers are expected to call it a career during that time.\nWith fewer workers, Canada Post is looking to become more efficient. It will open more brick and mortar franchise postal outlets in stores for greater convenience. It will also invest heavily in technology and infrastructure so workers can sort and deliver even more mail at once.\nSmall Businesses to be Hit Hard by Proposed Changes\nUnlike its other changes, Canada Post isn\u2019t waiting five years to increase the cost of stamps. On March 31, 2014, the cost of a single stamp will climb sharply from 63 cents to one dollar when purchased individually and 85 cents when bought in a pack.\nStamps, which used to be as common as a loaf of bread in most households, have become scarce in recent years \u2013 the average family buys less than two stamps a month. Although the cost increase in stamps will have an impact on seniors on fixed incomes, it will be small businesses who look to be hit the hardest. Many small businesses still use Canada Post to send cheques and invoices through the mail. The spike in the cost of stamps will likely be passed on by businesses directly to the consumer as a price increase.\nThe Postal Pension Deficit\nMuch of Canada\u2019s Post\u2019s woes are due to its pension problems, which have grown so bad they threaten to debunk the entire business. Like other defined pension programs, Canada Post is feeling the squeeze of baby boomers entering the market en mass. Currently, the crown corporation is suffering from a staggering $6.5-billion pension deficit that will only get worse if something\u2019s not done.\nThe age of the average Canada Post worker is 48; many are poised to enter retirement soon and contribute to the deficit. A complete overhaul is needed of the pension plan, if Canada Post looks to survive for the years to come although they\u2019ve been given a four-year pension holiday, the shortfall will have to be made up eventually, through higher contributions, taxpayer dollars, or a combination of both.\nWhat Went Wrong At Canada Post?\nMail volumes have been falling for years, so why didn\u2019t Canada Post make the necessary changes sooner? That\u2019s the million dollar question. Canada now has the dubious honour of being the first G7 country to eliminate door-to-door delivery in urban areas. Meanwhile, just south of the border, the postal service is thriving in the U.S. Mail is delivered six days a week, including Saturdays.\nWhat\u2019s the answer to Canada\u2019s Post money woes? Surely, there has to be a better way than eliminating home delivery. Scaling delivery back to three days a week would be a good start. Retailers like Loblaws and Canada Tire have been successful in the banking sector; perhaps Canada Post can follow in the footsteps of the postal service in France and do the same.\nThis is only the beginning of a long battle between Canada Post management and the union with consumers stuck squarely in the middle \u2013 only time will tell if these extreme changes actually go through.\nTags: canada pensions, canada post, canada post ends delivery, canada post pension deficit, pensions, retirement planning, retirement savings, saving for retirement.

While I understand community mailboxes in theory, I just don\u2019t see how they would work in densely populated downtown Toronto. We already have a form of community mailbox at the front of our condo building, as do many other buildings within walking distance. Will all building mailbox spaces need to be refurbished into other uses? And can you image the size of the community mailboxes needed and the processes to manage change addressee changes? I don\u2019t think so.\nInstead of having to inconvenience all these poor people that have to pick up their mail at boxes why not just have mail delivery to homes twice a week. simple huh?",

        "title": "6 Unique Ways to Celebrate Christmas While Studying Abroad | Blog",
        "raw_content": "For an Indian student in foreign shores, Christmas holidays in a new country can be not just an exhilarating experience, but also a great occasion to enjoy new holiday traditions. Christmas in US, UK, Canada, Australia or Singapore is unlike the Christmas back home. As an international student, you get the opportunity to immerse yourself in foreign culture. You get to learn more about the country\u2019s history, the ethnic makeup, and the social outlook. Not just that, you have the opportunity to learn something about your new friends and their families.\nIf you are an Indian studying abroad, here are 6 ideas to make your Christmas special:\n1. Discover How the Locals Celebrate Christmas\nChristmas traditions are largely similar in different parts of the world. Just like in India, you will find many families celebrating Christmas with a traditional Christmas dinner with family and friends. In Catholic households, many will attend the Christmas Eve mass, but that is not necessarily true for every family.\nPeople decorate their Christmas tree and homes. Be prepared to be dazzled by the sparkling lights, the decorations, and the festivity all around town. Santa Claus is still a favorite Christmas icon and a popular figure that you can see in malls and shopping arcades.\n\u201cIf you want to immerse yourself in local environment, take a road trip to the best parts of the country and enjoy the experience.\u201d\n2. Celebrate with People from Your Home Country\nIn most cases, you will find others from your own country in the same university. Christmas is the perfect occasion to bond with other Indians. You can learn and share your experiences and struggles. Often there is a lot of new learning and discovery that takes place during such interactions. This is also a great way to beat the homesickness, if you are missing folks back home.\n3. Celebrate Christmas with Other Students\nYour classmates are your new family. Should you not celebrate Christmas with your new family? Remember that there are lots of other students, who, like you, are probably going to stay at the university. Many international students stay on campus over the winter break. This is the perfect time to bond with your friends and have some Christmas fun.\n4. Volunteer at a local soup kitchen or shelter\nFeeling lonely? When you visit a shelter for the homeless or the destitute, you will feel the pain of hundreds of homeless on Christmas. So how about spending your holiday with the unfortunate souls and giving back to society?\nYou can offer to volunteer at a soup kitchen. The satisfaction of receiving a word of appreciation from a homeless can make it worth the hard work.\n5. Take a Christmas Trip\nIf your study schedule has not afforded you the luxury to explore your new country, Christmas is the perfect excuse to get away. During Christmas, you will find many deals to visit theme parks, beaches, and other getaways. If you want to immerse yourself in a local environment, take a road trip to the best parts of the country and enjoy the experience.\n6. Join a Family for Christmas\nYour friends at school who are going back home for Christmas may be happy to have you over. If you are invited, take this opportunity to spend some time with a local family and learn your host\u2019s culture. Your host will be flattered that you want to learn more about their tradition. Be gracious and participate in their traditions. Never fail to show your appreciation or express your gratitude. It is ok if you commit a folly for lack of awareness. But it is always a good idea to read up a bit on these traditions before you go. You can ask if you can bring along a present, a dessert or wine. It is usually customary for guests to carry along a gift for the host.\nChristmas is a time of sharing and giving. Learn more about other cultures when you are studying abroad, as this will help to shape your personality and outlook towards other people. This cultural experience will help you develop a broader outlook with a global vision.\n\u00ab 5 Ways to Boost Your Employability By Going Digital\n\u201cAm I Already Too Late to Study Abroad?\u201d An Expert Opinion on Planning Your Foreign Studies \u00bb",

It is employed most notably in Germany in the name of the main party of the left.\nFor over two-and-a-half hours on Tuesday, Hollande batted away questions about a celebrity magazine\u2019s revelations of a liaison with a French film actress and the future of his relationship with official partner Valerie Trierweiler.\nThe setpiece event was intended to expand on Hollande\u2019s conviction that \u201csupply-side socialism\u201d is needed to reform the euro zone\u2019s second largest economy while preserving a generous welfare model cherished by most French.\n\u201cA U-turn of words\u201d, the right-leaning Le Figaro newspaper said in its Wednesday edition. \u201cHollande set free\u201d, the left-wing Liberation daily said.\nLeft Party leader Jean-Luc Melenchon accused Hollande of offering \u201cunreciprocated gifts\u201d to France\u2019s company leaders, but Hollande allies insisted the country\u2019s main employers\u2019 group Medef had promised to hire more if charges were cut.\n\u201cIncreasingly Jean-Luc Melenchon gives the impression of someone who wants the left to fail rather than succeed,\u201d Budget Minister Bernard Cazeneuve told iTele of the firebrand orator.\nIndependent economists have given a mitigated thumbs-up to Hollande\u2019s plan, welcoming his recognition of the need to cut public spending but questioning whether the volume of cuts will be actually delivered and sufficient to mark a change.\n\u201c2014 could be a window of opportunity for Hollande,\u201d said Christian Schulz, senior economist at German bank Berenberg.\n\u201cConvincing the left wing of his party and the unions of the need for supply-side reforms should be easier in times of high unemployment and economic underperformance,\u201d he added.\nSo far, there has been no clear sign of a revolt from the left of Hollande\u2019s Socialists.\nWhereas Germany\u2019s Social Democrats disavowed Marxist policy at a 1959 conference in the Rhineland town of Bad Godesberg, France\u2019s Socialists have never had such a moment and remain a broad grouping in which centrists rub shoulders with staunch left-wingers such as Industry Minister Arnaud Montebourg.",

        "raw_content": "Dental Lab Pioneers Highlight the Potential of Digital Denture Production (Part 1)\n06/22/2017\u3000Dental\nSince being founded in 1958, Wada Precision Dental Laboratories has been at the forefront of the dental laboratory market in Japan. With branches around the country and 1,100 employees, including approximately 800 dental technicians, it is one of the largest dental laboratories in the industry. The CAD/CAM Center, located in Osaka, conducts research into state-of-the-art dental techniques and has been testing Roland DG\u2019s first dental 3D printer, the DWP-80S, to streamline the denture fabrication process. We spoke to Mr. Shizuo Higuchi, Managing Director and Mr. Norihiro Yoshitsugu, Assistant Manager of the lab\u2019s Production Division about the potential of digital dentures produced using digital tools.\nWe interviewed Mr. Shizuo Higuchi, Managing Director (right) and Mr. Norihiro Yoshitsugu, Assistant Manager (left).\nWada Precision Dental Laboratories is testing Roland DG\u2019s first dental 3D printer that was released in March 2017.\nHow widely are digital dentures used in Japan currently?\nHiguchi: There are many types of dental restorations available, and digital production of crowns, bridges and other restoration methods in particular is on the rise as they are covered by insurance in Japan. Yet the dentures that more patients need are almost entirely made manually as digital technology is rarely used. Several years ago, manufacturers overseas began offering digital systems for all the processes required for full dentures, however there are few clinical cases available and the systems are very costly, which means it will take time for mainstream use of such systems in Japan. I think digital production of partial dentures, which account for more than 80% of dentures produced, will be a key area in the future.\nWhat are the benefits of producing dentures using digital technology?\nHiguchi: The biggest advantages are efficiency and reduced labor. Dentures involve many processes until they are completed, and if even some of those processes can be replaced by digital technology, it will help reduce the workload of dental technicians. This will allow them to focus on processes with a higher value.\nWhat are some examples of high, value-added processes?\nHiguchi: The design of dental restorations is one example. Regardless of whether digital or analog methods are used for production, the first step is determining what type of restorations to make based on the patient\u2019s dental impression. Designing the optimum denture for each and every patient requires exceptional skill, experience and know-how. For example, using digital technology to reduce work time will give younger dental technicians more time to learn advanced techniques, like making specific applications. I think that this will help boost the skill level of technicians.\nWill digital technology also affect the work environment of dental technicians?\nHiguchi: I think that digital technology will be very effective for reducing the amount of time that dental technicians will spend working. In the past, dental technicians simply had to work longer hours if their workload increased. Today, however, the industry is shifting toward methods that reduce the working hours of dental technicians while maintaining production capability by introducing digital systems.\nBe sure to read Part 2 to find out how they felt about using Roland DG\u2019s dental 3D printer!\nFor more information about Wada Precision Dental Laboratories, please visit http://www.labowada.co.jp/about_us/e_index.html.\nCorporate Activities, Dental\nDigital Dental Workflow Infographic\nSuper Heroes and Super Graphics Help Make Dental Clinic a Patient-Focused Experience\nDigital Printing, Dental\nNew Machines, New DGSHAPE Brand Highlight Roland DG\u2019s IDS Exhibit\nDental, Events & Tradeshows",

        "raw_content": "By Chris Liss on February 4, 2019\nI watched the condensed version of the game this morning, and I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t pull the all-nighter in real time. It actually was entertaining (if still frustrating) that way, but I can\u2019t imagine how bad it would have been with all the commercials and the half-time show.\nBy Jim Coventry on February 3, 2019\nPredictions are great, but I hate throwing out a set of scores and calling it a day. For those who have heard me on podcasts in the past, I always prefer that we look at the \u2018why\u2019 as being more important than the \u2018what\u2019, especially with the randomness of NFL football. So, here\u2019s my analysis of today\u2019s contest between the Patriots and Rams.\nBy Kevin Payne on January 30, 2019\nIf you want to make guaranteed money on the Super Bowl, there\u2019s a way to do it.\nYou\u2019ll need access to the FanDuel Sportsbook and any site/sportsbook offering the prop \u201cWill there be a defensive/ST touchdown?\u201d so you can bet \u201cNO\u201d. William-Hill in Las Vegas for example (they have 109 locations in Nevada) has \u201cNO\u201d listed at -180 and this can be found in other places at similar odds. On the FanDuel Sportsbook you can take both the Rams and Patriots defense/ST at +650 to score an anytime touchdown.\nThe odds are good enough here that you can win guaranteed money betting both. Here\u2019s how to do it.\nIf you have $1,400 you\u2019re going to bet $1,000 on \u201cNO\u201d on \u201cWill there be a defensive/ST touchdown?\u201d For argument\u2019s sake let\u2019s say that the odds are -200. If \u201cNO\u201d hits, you end up with $1,500, your $1,000 wager and another $500 for $100 profit.\nTo hedge this, on the FanDuel Sportsbook, take $200 and put it on \u201cAnytime touchdown scorer\u201d for the Rams defense/ST AND the Patriots defense/ST. If either team hits you\u2019ll get back a total of $1,500 giving yourself a profit of $100. If BOTH teams hit, you\u2019ll make a profit of $1,600.\nShop these odds around although the key here is the two wagers to make on the FanDuel Sportsbook. Odds for the \u201cNO\u201d might be able to be found better than -200 to increase your profit.\nBy Chris Liss on January 21, 2019\nIt\u2019s an odd feeling waking up, knowing only one of the Super Bowl teams when the entire world knows what happened in the second game. I watched the AFC contest via the condensed version this morning \u2013 that was a lot of drama in 43 minutes. I had the Chiefs minus three and was rooting for them, and while a few things went against them \u2013 the Edelman fumble overturn, the coin toss in overtime, the neutral zone infraction, the ticky tack roughing the passer, for example \u2013 they had plenty of chances to win. At some point, you have to stop a team from converting on 3rd-and-10.\nThe divisional round of the NFL playoffs is often the best of the year. That was not the case this past weekend. Only two of the games were remotely competitive, and neither was easy on the eyes, especially the Saints-Eagles game that featured long drives dictated in large part by penalties in one direction or the other. And after all that, the game ended on a dropped-pass turned into a gift interception.\nBy Chris Liss on January 7, 2019\nI went 0-3-1 ATS and had to tear up my 18:1 ticket on the Ravens to win the AFC, so I didn\u2019t especially enjoy Wild Card weekend. What\u2019s worse is with the exception of the Cowboys-Seahawks which started at 1:00 am my time, and which I watched via the 40-minute condensed version Sunday morning, I had the indignity of viewing standalone games in real time, something I had mercifully avoided for most of the year. You forget how much the experience consists in sitting through muted commercials and watching officials huddle while the booth uselessly speculates on what we\u2019ll find out minutes later anyway.\nBy Chris Liss on December 31, 2018\nI enjoyed Week 17 with the exception of a few terrible penalty calls and the endless reviews during the Browns\u2019 final drive. I understand you want to get the calls right with so much at stake, but people don\u2019t have all day (or in my case all night) to wait around for the lawyers and accountants to sign off on each play. And while the refs did get the two catch calls correct in my opinion on the final drive, they still botched the fumble return on Lamar Jackson\u2019s too-short push at the goal line by blowing the whistle too soon and also called a phantom hold negating a legitimate long Jackson TD run earlier in the game. Why insist on making everyone wait for perfect precision on one class of plays when so many of the others are both flat wrong and unreviewable?",

The pontiff arrived with a delegation of clerics and was presented a bouquet of flowers. The papal visit, a first of its kind to the Islam-dominated Arabian Peninsula, will continue on Tuesday with a much-awaited mass for about 135,000 Catholics. Top UAE officials and Muslim religious leaders are expected to attend it.\nSpeaking ahead of the visit, Francis said that he hopes to use an opportunity to write \u201ca new page in the history of relations between religious.\u201d\nThe visit is overshadowed by the Yemen war, in which the UAE plays a significant part. The brutal conflict has put the war-ravaged country on the brink of total devastation, with over 60,000 reported killed as result of the hostilities and further 85,000 perished due to famine, epidemics and lack of basic medical care.\nWhile the UAE\u2019s involvement in the conflict has not been so high-profile as that of Saudi Arabia, which leads the coalition of Arab states against the Houthi rebels and in support of the ousted president Mansur Hadi, it has contributed both troops and warplanes. The kingdom\u2019s role in the almost a four-year-war was highlighted in the recent report that the American military have been training Emirati fighter pilots to be dispatched in Yemen.\nREAD MORE: Yemen's true death toll has topped 60,000 but media too \u2018lazy\u2019 to update body count \u2013 NGO\nBefore his departure for Abu Dhabi, Francis condemned the war, calling on all sides to stick to a shaky truce deal struck up in December. The truce has been repeatedly violated since. The UN this weekend hosted a meeting between the warring parties on a sheep in the Red Sea in an attempt to preserve it.\n\u201cThe cry of these children and their parents rises up to God,\u201d Francis said during his customary Sunday address in Vatican. He urged to pray for the children \u201cwho are hungry, who are thirsty,\u201d lack medicine and tread on a brink of death.\nFrancis said he follows the humanitarian crisis in the country with \u201cgreat concern,\u201d pointing out, in particular, that despite acute food shortage, \u201cno access to food supplies is enabled.\u201d He was referring to the Arab coalition naval and air blockade of the country, which relied heavily on food import to feed itself even before the war broke out in 2015.\nAlso on rt.com Saudi-led coalition accused of using Sudanese child mercenaries \u2018like firewood\u2019 to fuel Yemen war\n\u201cI call on the concerned parties and the international community to assure the distribution of food and work for the well-bring of Yemeni people.\u201d\nThe pontiff has often invoked the sufferings of civilians in Yemen in his public addresses, using his Christmas mess in December to endorse peace talks and express hopes that a UN-brokered ceasefire \u201ccan finally bring relief to all those children and people exhausted by war and famine.\u201d\nThe hopes that the truce agreement signed in Sweden would pave the way for a lasting peace were trumpeted after violence broke out again mid-January. Following a Houthi drone attack on a government military parade that killed six, the Saudi-led coalition carried massive airstrikes on the Yemeni capital, engaging both military and civilian targets. The Houthis called the bombing \u201cvery violent,\u201d and said many civilians were targeted.\nThe flare-up in tensions is feared to derail the talks. On Saturday, Jordan said it would host further negotiations, but fell short of announcing the date. The talks are expected to focus on a prisoner swap deal.\nTrends:Pope Francis newsUAE newsYemen news\n\u2018Wasn\u2019t me, I wore blackface on another occasion\u2019: Virginia gov backpedals on yearbook photo scandal\nTrump confirms use of US military in Venezuela among \u2018options\u2019 on table",

They\u2019re not going to have any more conversations about health care, now that they got the bill passed, they\u2019re not going to talk about the budget. \u2018House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer told reporters today that Democrats may not be able to pass an actual budget resolution this year because too many members will be skittish about voting for a budget with such a gaping deficit during election season, The Hill reports. Theoretically speaking, Congress is supposed to pass a budget resolution each year, but it can get away without passing one. When Republicans were in control, there were a number of years during which they failed to pass a budget. At the same time, Democrats\u2019 made a big deal out of it.

        "raw_content": "\u200bSelected Media Coverage & Op-Eds\nWhy small groups of vaccine refusers can make large groups of people sick\nInfectious diseases such as chickenpox and measles \u2014 once a rite of passage for American children \u2014 have been made uncommon because of vaccines. However, in recent years, an increasing number of parents are refusing vaccines, resulting in outbreaks.\nThe overall vaccination rate in the United States is still high, fortunately, despite this worrisome trend. For example, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 90 percent of 19- to 35-month-old American children are adequately vaccinated against measles and chickenpox. Why, then, do we continue to see outbreaks of diseases preventable in the United States?\nOne reason is the epidemiological phenomenon of clustering of susceptible individuals \u2014 which happens when a group of unvaccinated individuals in a specific area grows large enough to render protection from overall high immunization rates less effective.\nTdap vaccine given to pregnant women did not increase risk of autism in children, study says\nBy giving the Tdap vaccine to pregnant women, doctors hope to protect babies during those first few months \u2014 when they are unvaccinated and most vulnerable to disease.\nSaad Omer, a professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University, said the study was comprehensive and well-designed.\nThe results, he said, are \u201cnot surprising\u201d but \u201cvery reassuring.\u201d\nSaad Omer, a professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University, said the analysis provides a deeper understanding of where pockets of vulnerability exist. \u201cWe may have known about hot spots, but this is a little more systematic look,\u201d he said.\nThe analysis also shows a direct correlation between exemption rates and vaccination rates for the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine and suggests other issues, such as access, are less of a factor in influencing vaccine coverage, according to Omer. Overall, the study found that states with more nonmedical exemptions had lower MMR vaccination rates. In contrast, the three states that have banned nonmedical exemptions \u2014 Mississippi, California and West Virginia \u2014 show the highest MMR vaccine uptake and lowest incidence of vaccine-preventable diseases.\nOpting out of vaccines leaves these US 'hot spots' most vulnerable for outbreaks\nThe new study is a \"good contribution\" to the field, said Saad B. Omer, a professor of global health and epidemiology & pediatrics at Emory University.\nOmer, who was not involved in the research, said one strength of the work is that the researchers conducted an in-depth analysis of individual states with nonmedical exemptions, which had never been done.\nOmer's own research has shown that states with philosophical exemptions had both higher rates of refusal and higher rates of disease; his study focused on rates of whooping cough. \"Clusters of refusal overlap clusters of outbreaks,\" he said.\nFailure to vaccinate is likely driver of U.S. measles outbreaks, report says\n\u200bA common scenario is this: A family leaves the country on vacation and one child gets infected and develops measles upon returning to the United States. \u201cThen the child goes to a play group with other kids who are unvaccinated, and those kids catch measles,\u201d said Saad Omer, a professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University.\nOmer, who was not involved in the analysis, said the data illustrate the increasing number of \u201cpockets of vulnerability\u201d in the United States. Cases typically occur in such communities as well as in metropolitan areas or those with major ports of entry. During the 15-year period studied, the largest number of cases were in California (380), New York (250), Ohio (396) and Washington state (102).\n\u201cParents with the most concerns about vaccinating their children were twice as likely to have a high score for those clean, pure, wholesome themes as well as support of themes of individual liberty, compared to parents with the fewest concerns,\u201d said Avnika Amin, a doctoral student in epidemiology at Emory University, and one of the study's authors.\nHow Anti-Vaccine Activists Harmed Minnesota's Somali-American Community\n\u201cIf there is a lesson in this unfolding tragedy, it is that public health authorities and practitioners need to work hard to build trust and resilience among minority communities targeted by vaccine skeptics,\u201d writes Omer.\nWhen It's Hard To Get A Vaccine Exemption, More Kids Get Shots\nTalking to Vaccine Resisters\nSaad Omer at the Emory Vaccine Center has conducted studies on how schools, health-care providers, and state-level legislation effect vaccine uptake.\nPercentage of young U.S. children who don\u2019t receive any vaccines has quadrupled since 2001\nAll but a handful of states allow parents to opt their children out of school immunization requirements for nonmedical reasons, with exemptions for religious or philosophical beliefs.\nThe overall percentage of children with an exemption was low, 2.2 percent. But the report noted \u201cthis was the third consecutive school year that a slight increase was observed.\u201d The report does not provide a breakdown, but the majority of exemptions are nonmedical, according to data reported by the states.\nSaad Omer, a professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University, said that an analysis he and colleagues conducted a few years ago found the rate of increase in nonmedical exemptions had appeared to stabilize by the 2015-2016 school year after many years of increase.\nUnderstand the values behind people\u2019s vaccine fears\nWe found a link between vaccine hesitancy and values of purity and liberty, which is especially informative given that many \u201ctraditional\u201d pro-vaccine arguments focus on other values: fairness and protecting oneself and others from harm. Perhaps, if we incorporate these additional values into pro-vaccine messages, they\u2019ll resonate more with hesitant parents and be more effective at convincing people to get vaccinated.\n\u200bThe anti-vaccine movement's influence may be waning\nLead study author Saad Omer, a professor in global health, epidemiology, and pediatrics at Emory, said the data make him cautiously optimistic. While the overall vaccine exemption rate grew between 2011 and 2013, Omer said, it plateaued after that. And he suspects vaccine coverage may soon get even better.\nDuring the study period, there were important legislative advances in vaccine policy, which went into effect after the study ended. In July of 2016, Vermont banished its philosophical exemptions, and California also did away with all nonmedical exemptions.\nCalifornia Shows The Rest Of The Country How To Boost Kindergarten Vaccination Rates\n\u201cYou have this tinder that can start a fire,\u201d Saad Omer of Emory University in Atlanta told BuzzFeed News, referring to the risk posed by local pockets of unvaccinated children. His research has shown that, for both measles and pertussis, outbreaks are associated with clusters of unvaccinated children.\nDon\u2019t Let Vaccines Go the Way of Climate Change: Be careful how you call out our vaccine-skeptic president. This is one fight we can\u2019t afford to politicize.\nIncreased politicization of the vaccination issue would be deadly, because it could spawn new anti-vaccination converts and further insulate the debate from scientific research, potentially lowering immunization rates and increasing the risk of disease.\n@sallykohn and Dr. Saad Omer @EmoryVaccineCtr weigh in on \"the vaccine debate\" @CNN http://t.co/LuLeZQ6m9G\n\u2014 Carol Costello (@CarolCNN) February 3, 2015\nFlu Shot Tied to Healthy Pregnancy\n\u200bDr. Omer and his colleagues looked at the electronic medical records of 3,327 pregnant women between April 2009 and April 2010. The study, published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases, found that the infants born to vaccinated mothers had a 37 percent lower likelihood of being premature, and they also weighed more at birth than babies born to unvaccinated women.\nWhy statin users should still get the flu shot, even if cholesterol drugs make it less effective\nBut older people are also much more likely to take statins. And two new studies, including one from my research group, suggest that people who take these cholesterol-lowering drugs have a lower response to the flu vaccine compared to those who don\u2019t take them.\u200b\nPublic Health Risk Seen as Parents Reject Vaccines\nWhile nationwide over 90 percent of children old enough to receive vaccines get them, the number of exemptions worries many health officials and experts. They say that vaccines have saved countless lives, and that personal-belief exemptions are potentially dangerous and bad public policy because they are not based on sound science.\n\u201cIf you have clusters of exemptions, you increase the risk of exposing everyone in the community,\u201d said Dr. Omer, who has extensively studied disease outbreaks and vaccines.\nHow to Handle the Vaccine Skeptics\nATLANTA \u2014 The alarming number of measles cases \u2014 a record 644 last year, and 102 last month, the most since the disease was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000 \u2014 has focused scrutiny on parents who refuse vaccinations for their children.\n15 Myths About Anti-Vaxxers, Debunked\u200b\n\u201cIt\u2019s never a good idea to humiliate individual parents because it never changes anyone\u2019s minds,\u201d said Saad Omer, an associate professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University School of Public Health and Emory Vaccine Center.\n\u200bWhat\u2019s happened since California let fewer families reject vaccines\nA California law that aims to limit the number of people who can refuse vaccines has led to a slight improvement in kindergartners\u2019 vaccination rate in recent years, according to a new study in Health Affairs. But the law was not as effective in private schools, and did little to break up localized clusters of children who opted out of vaccines.\nIt\u2019s these local clusters of vaccinations that put a specific community or school at the greatest risk, according to the study, which linked large measles outbreaks across the United States to \u201cdeclining population vaccination and to voluntary abstention from measles vaccine.\u201d\n\u201cAll disease transmission is local, just like politics,\u201d said Saad Omer, a professor in global health and epidemiology at Emory University in Atlanta and one of the study authors. He added that national and state monitoring is not enough to effectively monitor infectious disease; more needs to be done on the local and county level.\nAnti-vaccine activists are playing with fire in Minnesota\nBut the major public health success of the elimination of measles is under threat. The concern that localized outbreaks like the one in Minnesota can morph into large, national-level events is not far-fetched.\n\u200bThird dose of mumps vaccine could help stop outbreaks, researchers say\nThe research, published in the New England Journal of Medicine and based on analysis of data from a large mumps outbreak at the University of Iowa in 2015-2016, showed that getting a third dose of MMR vaccine cut the risk of contracting the mumps by 78 percent.\n\u201cThe thing that this study particularly adds is that a third dose may have a role \u2014 at least in outbreak control \u2014 for mumps,\u201d said Dr. Saad Omer, a professor of epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University. Omer, whose work focuses on vaccinations, was not involved in the new study, which was published Wednesday.\n\u201cEven a modest decrease in [vaccine coverage] rates could be enough to cause future outbreaks,\u201d wrote Saad Omer, a leading vaccine researcher at Emory University, in a Washington Post opinion piece.\u200b\n\u200bMeasles No Longer Lives In The Americas -- Though It Still Visits\n\u201cThis is a very big deal,\u201d said Saad Omer, PhD, a professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University School of Public Health and Emory Vaccine Center. \u201cIt\u2019s significant because measles is a big killer that impacts real life and predisposes babies to other diseases.\u201d\nIn the study, led by Saad Omer of Emory University, Atlanta, researchers searched the medical literature for all reports of measles outbreaks in the United States from January 2000 through November 2015. They did a similar search for pertussis outbreaks since 1977, when cases of this disease reached their lowest point in the U.S.\n\u200bSafety of Flu and Pertussis Vaccines in Pregnancy Assessed\n\u201cThis is a somewhat comprehensive meta-analysis,\u201d said senior author Saad Omer, an associate professor of global health at Emory University. \u201cThe findings were not really surprising but they were reassuring in that all the bigger and higher quality studies, with a lower chance of randomness in the results, pointed in the same direction.\u201d\nThe Measles Outbreak Coming Near You\nBy wiping out many common and deadly diseases, and thus the fear they induce, vaccination can be its own worst enemy. However, we cannot afford to remain reactive. Seminal work in 2012 by Saad B. Omer, an epidemiologist at Emory University, has demonstrated that making it more difficult to obtain exemptions\u2014say, by requiring physician consultation, education or annual renewals\u2014reduces the rate of exemptions. \u201cThe balance of convenience should tip in the favor of vaccinations as opposed to vaccine exemptions,\u201d he told me.\nMost Doctors Give In to Requests by Parents to Alter Vaccine Schedules\n\u200b\u201cUnfortunately, we don\u2019t have a solid evidence base in terms of how to communicate to patients about vaccines,\u201d said Saad Omer, an epidemiologist at Emory University. \u201cA lot of approaches are wisdom-based, not evidence-based.\u201d\nVaccines' Benefits Trump Concerns, Experts Say\nUndermining Confidence in Immunization Could Damage \"Herd Immunity.\"\n\u200bSuccess of immunization programs in the United States should not be taken for granted. It took decades of hard work by doctors, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state and local health departments to get vaccination rates to where they are today \u2014 over 90 percent for vaccines against polio, hepatitis B, chickenpox, measles, mumps and rubella.\n\ufeffParents' Attitudes on Opting Out of HPV Vaccine\nTrying to impose mandates without broad public support can backfire, says Saad Omer, a professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University Schools of Public Health & Medicine whose research focuses on state exemptions for vaccines required for school. \"We're living with the legacy of going for a mandate a little too early,\" he says. Getting a particular vaccine needs to be a social norm before a law requires it, he adds.\nStatins May Dampen Response to Flu Vaccine\n...The lead author on the second study, Saad B. Omer, an associate professor at the Emory Vaccine Center in Atlanta, said that nothing in these studies should lead to immediate changes in practice.\n\u200b\u201cEven with the diminishing effect, flu vaccines remain the most effective tool to prevent influenza, including in the elderly,\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019re not perfect, but nobody should skip their flu vaccine.\u201d\nCalifornia Vaccination Bill SB 277 Clears Senate -- And Will Save Taxpayer Money If It Becomes Law\n\u200bResearch by Saad Omer, an associate professor of global health and epidemiology at Emory University, has shown that states with religious and personal belief exemptions have had higher rates of exemptions and greater incidence of pertussis (whooping cough).\nWashington State Makes It Harder to Opt Out of Immunizations\n...despite efforts to educate the public on the risks of forgoing immunization, more parents are choosing not to have their children vaccinated, especially in states that make it easy to opt out, according to a study published on Thursday in The New England Journal of Medicine.\nSwine Flu Shots Revive a Debate About Vaccines\nOne of the things they are focusing on now is immunization and pregnancy,\u201d said Saad B. Omer, assistant professor of global health at Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University, \u201cand their perceptions of the vaccine in use of pregnant women. It is not a benign perception in this case, and could have serious impacts, because pregnant women have high risk of complication if they get the swine flu.\u201d\nVaccine Issue Arises at Republican Debate, to Doctors' Dismay\n\u200b\u201cI was thinking: There\u2019s a reason why we have a schedule,\u201d said Dr. Saad Omer, an infectious diseases expert at Emory University in Georgia. He watched the beginning of the debate, then stopped to do work, but ran back in to turn it on again when some vaccine expert friends started posting on Facebook about the back-and-forth on the stage.\n\u201cI had hoped was there would have been a stronger endorsement of the schedule,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s not one person\u2019s opinion. It\u2019s not even just the government\u2019s opinion. It\u2019s based on very broad scientific advice.\u201d\nIn Pandemic Study, Health Workers Stay Home\nResearchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore and Ben Gurion University of\nthe Negev in Israel surveyed 308 public health workers in Maryland and found 46.2% said they would be unlikely\nto report for work during a pandemic. Less than a third believe they would play an important role in the health agency during a local outbreak.\nThe results may not hold true for health departments in big cities or other regions, says co-author Saad Omer.\nThe idea that so many public health workers may not show up for work is \"a little unsettling,\" Omer says, but \"you\ncan't blame the public health workforce,\" which after a series of events from the anthrax attacks to Hurricane Katrina, is being asked to take on new roles.\nFear of Vaccines Spurs Outbreaks, Study Says\nToo many abstainers can put a town at risk, wrote Dr. Saad Omer, of Emory University in Atlanta, the lead author in the report...\n\"People need to recognize that in the case of infectious diseases, what other people do impacts my child,\" Dr. Omer said in an interview. \"If they live in a community that has a cluster of refusers, their risk of getting a vaccine-preventable disease goes up, just by virtue of who they play with.\"\nClinicians Must Persuade Parents To Vaccinate Kids\nPediatricians have varying responses to parents who refuse to vaccine their children, according to a 2005 survey of members of the American Academy of Pediatrics.\nA large minority (40%) said they would not treat children from families that refused all vaccines, and 28% said they would not treat youngsters whose parents declined some vaccines.\nThis approach is inappropriate, Dr. Omer argued.\n\"The American Academy of Pediatrics' Committee on Bioethics advises against this and recommends that clinicians address vaccine refusal by respectfully listening to parental concerns and discussing the risks of nonvaccination,\" he and his colleagues wrote.\nDocs Can Sway Parents' Attitudes to Vaccination\nVaccine refusal is a growing phenomenon, as indicated by the proportion of children exempted from school immunization requirements for non-medical reasons, explain Dr. Saad B. Omer, at Emory University in Atlanta and his associates. Between 1991 and 2004, exemption rates rose from less than 1 percent to more than 2.5 percent in states that allow exemptions for philosophical or personal beliefs.\nHowever, Omer's team reports, \"Parents who reported that decisions were influenced by their child's health care provider were almost twice as likely to consider vaccines safe as parents who said their decisions were not influenced by the provider.\"\nDoc Knows Best About Jabs\nParents who are hesitant about having their children vaccinated should listen to their healthcare provider.\nDoctors can play a critical role by explaining the benefits and addressing concerns about risks, researchers report in New England Journal of Medicine. Vaccine refusal is a growing phenomenon, as indicated by the proportion of children exempted from school immunization requirements for non-medical reasons, say Dr Saad B. Omer and his associates at Emory University in Atlanta.\nWhen Moms Get Flu Shot, Babies Benefit Too: Study\nDr. Saad Omer of Emory University in Atlanta and colleagues looked at 6,410 births between June of 2004 and September of 2006, checking to see how many babies were premature or small for gestational age.\nWhen flu was the most widespread, vaccinated moms had an 80 percent lower risk than unvaccinated mothers of having a premature baby, Omer said. The risk of having a baby that was small for gestational age was 70 percent lower for vaccinated mothers.\nNevirapine for breastfeeding infants: benefit of 6-week course still evident after one year\nUse of six weeks of extended-dose nevirapine compared to single-dose nevirapine accounted for a 62%\nreduction in infant mortality and a\n46% reduction of HIV transmission or death in breastfed, HIV-exposed infants, according to the final 12-month analysis of the SWEN study.\nSaad B. Omer and colleagues reported the final analysis of the Six Week Extended Dose Nevirapine (SWEN) randomised controlled trials in the advance online edition of AIDS.\nThese results confirm earlier reported analyses of six-week and six-month endpoints of the three SWEN\nLow vaccination rates in some schools raise outbreak risks\n\"Whenever the community risk goes up, everyone tends to get affected, including people who are vaccinated,\" said Saad Omer, an Emory University scientist who researches unvaccinated clusters. \"Even the best vaccines are not perfect.\"\nClusters of unvaccinated people are, Omer said, like patches of dry grass that, with a single match, can start a wildfire that will burn not only dry material, but sometimes wet as well. The match could be a student who returns from a trip abroad with measles or a train commuter with whooping cough.\n\"I don't want to exaggerate the problem. It is not that we are going to have the same rates of measles that we had in the pre-vaccination era any time soon,\" Omer said. \"But the community risk of outbreak goes up, depending on what is happening in your community and in your school. That is why parents should be concerned, even if they do the right thing and get their kid vaccinated.\"\nParents Delaying, Skipping Recommended Vaccines\nParents who skip or delay vaccines typically cite safety concerns, researchers said, including the now debunked idea of a link between vaccines and autism.\nWhat they miss is the risk of the disease they aren't vaccinating against, said Saad Omer, an infectious diseases researcher at Emory University in Atlanta.\n\"Parents often have this perception that it's a benign choice, whether to vaccinate or not,\" Omer, who was not involved in the new research, told Reuters Health.\nHe said parents who refuse vaccines tend to cluster together in certain areas -- increasing the risk of a local disease outbreak, even in kids who have been vaccinated.\nCan You Teach New Docs Old Tricks?\nYounger primary care providers are more likely than their older counterparts to believe that vaccines do more harm than good, according to an abstract here at the Infectious Diseases Society of America 49th Annual Meeting by Saad Omer, MBBS, MPH, PhD, assistant professor of global health, epidemiology, and pediatrics at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, and colleagues.\nDr. Omer said that for parents, safety-related issues are the most important. \"The medical profession and the public health community have focused on messages to the general community in terms of vaccine safety....I think there should be some more emphasis on efficacy,\" he said.\nSchool Vaccines: More Students Skip Required Shots in 8 States\nA rising number of parents in more than half of states are opting out of school shots for their kids. And in eight states, more than 1 in 20 public school kindergartners do not get all the vaccines required for attendance, an Associated Press analysis found.That has health officials worried about possible new outbreaks of diseases that were all but stamped out.\n\"Vaccine refusers tend to cluster,\" said Saad Omer, an Emory University epidemiologist who has done extensive research on the issue.\nThe Panic Virus: The True Story Behind the Vaccine-Autism Controversy.\n\"There has never been strong or reasonable scientific evidence to point to a link between thimerosal and autism,\" says Saad Omer, a vaccine specialist who teaches global disease epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. \"Even the people who advocated removing [thimerosal from vaccines], the Public Health Service, when they did that, they were not talking about autism.\"\nVaccination Exemptions Put Kids at Risk\n\"The appropriate use of medical exemptions is important to maintaining sufficient herd immunity to protect those who should not be vaccinated due to medical contra-indications,\" said lead researcher Dr. Saad B. Omer. \"Medical providers, parents, school officials, and state health officials are responsible for ensuring that medical exemptions are actually medically indicated.\"\nIn an accompanying editorial, Daniel A Salmon and Dr. Neal Halsey, of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said the findings should prompt action from those responsible for implementing and enforcing school immunization requirements at the state and local levels.\nNon-Medical Vaccination Opt-Outs on the Rise\nAn increasing number of parents are getting state approval to allow their children to opt out of school-mandated vaccinations for non-medical reasons, according to a new analysis published Wednesday.\nDr. Saad Omer, author of the correspondence published in the New England Journal of Medicine, warned that this trend is leaving large populations of children at risk for developing potentially deadly illnesses that haven't been seen in the United States in many years.\n\"Rates of exemption are substantially higher today than several years ago,\" said Omer, assistant professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University in Atlanta. \"Previously, rates were only rising in states with easy exemption policies, but now they are even rising in states that make it more difficult.\"\nFrequent Review Needed For Medical Exemptions to School Immunizations\nSaad B. Omer, MBBS, MPH, PhD, of Emory University Schools of Public Health and Medicine in Atlanta, and colleagues said medical exemption rates should be monitored and continuously evaluated to ensure that medical exemptions to school-entry immunizations are not granted solely because they are easier to obtain than other types of exemptions.\n\u201cJudicious use of the medical exemption option helps ensure that individual children and the broader community can benefit from high immunization coverage,\u201d the researchers wrote.\nGirls May Not Have Riskier Sex After HPV Vaccination\nGirls who had been vaccinated against human papillomavirus (HPV) weren't more likely to get other sexually transmitted infections or to become pregnant, in a new study from Georgia.\n\"Some parents have expressed it as a concern,\" said Saad Omer, an infectious diseases and vaccine researcher from Emory University in Atlanta who worked on the study.\n\"Parents can be reassured at least based on the evidence that young girls who receive HPV vaccines did not show increased signs (of) clinical outcomes of sexual activity,\" he told Reuters Health.\nWhat Jenny McCarthy and The Taliban Have In Common\nIn the summer of 2011, another noxious ingredient was added to the swirling milieu of conspiracy over vaccinations. Shortly after the killing of Osama bin Laden, it was revealed that the CIA had been running a fake vaccination campaign to acquire genetic material from members of the Bin Laden compound.\n\"The credibility of health care workers involved in polio eradication seems to have taken a hit due to this episode\" said Saad Bin Omer, an associate professor at Emory University with expertise in vaccine refusals both in Pakistan and the United States. The systematic countrywide massacre of hapless vaccinators morbidly underscores his point.\n2010 California Whooping Cough Outbreak Linked to Vaccine-Averse Parents\n\"We live in a free society, but infectious diseases are different from other phenomenon. Someone else's behavior can affect my child or loved one, or me,\" study author Dr. Saad Omer, an associate professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University's Vaccine Center in Atlanta, said to HealthDay.\nLegend has it...: Panel Aims to Debunk the Myth of Harmful Vaccines\nKarachi: Pakistan has the highest global burden of childhood diseases and mortality and therefore, needs to\nutilise all the tools available to combat them, especially the most effective one \u2014 vaccines.\nThese views were shared by Emory University associate professor of global health, epidemiology and paediatrics Dr Saad B Omer, while he was speaking at a panel discussion at the Aga Khan University (AKU), ...\nDr Omer provided concrete statistical data to negate the theories about vaccines causing more harm than good to children.\nMy Interview With A Pediatrician Who Thinks Vaccines Are \"Messing With Nature\"\nFor a reality check, I call up some outside experts, including Alanna Levine, a pediatrician in Orangeburg, New York, and a spokeswoman for the American Academy of Pediatrics, to ask what they thought of this boutique approach to immunizations. \"My blood is boiling right now,\" Levine replies. \"I think that policy is dangerous. I think it puts children at risk when they are most vulnerable.\"\nSaad Omer, a professor of public health and vaccine expert at Emory University, holds a similar view. \"There is a reason why we give vaccines to young children,\" he says. \"That's because the risk of disease is higher for certain age groups. You want to give vaccines as early as possible to protect the child. If you delay, you are leaving the most vulnerable period for the child open.\"\nOmer adds that he considers it very risky to vaccinate only against diseases that are prevalent in a particular community. \"Most practices don't have a community surveillance system,\" he says. \"They don't know whom these kids interact with or where they will travel. Infectious diseases are by nature infectious, so it's not just individual behavior that matters. It's everyone's vaccinations.\"\nSpreading The Message About Vaccine Compliance\nWhat parents aren\u2019t hearing enough, says RSPH researcher Saad Omer, is that pregnant women and their babies need vaccines so that both stay healthy.\n\"When you start talking about childhood vaccines with parents after their babies are born, it is already too late,\" he says. \"Young parents are more receptive when they are pregnant. There are already lots of messages that are targeted to them during pregnancy, such as breastfeeding and safety. We need to add mother and child vaccinations to that.\"\n\"Vaccinating pregnant women is especially important in developing countries,\" he says. \"Here in the United States, premature babies go to the NICU. In many parts of developing countries, there is no NICU. Worldwide, 1 million deaths are associated with preterm births.\"\nMeet the Anti-Vaccination Pediatrician Catering to California's Rich, New Age-y Parents\nButler spoke to Saad Omer, a professor of public health at Emory University, about the dangers of this one-shot-per-visit strategy. He worried that the incredibly elaborate scheduling of all these shots would mean that kids would skip some necessary ones, since \"the parents have to take more time off to bring the child to get the vaccines,\" creating more opportunities for parents to miss appointments.\nAmish Parents Mirror Wider Concerns Over Vaccines\nOf 359 households that responded to the survey, 85 percent said that at\nleast some of their children had received at least one vaccine.\nForty-nine families refused all vaccines for their children, mostly because\nthey worried the vaccines could cause harm and were not worth the risk.\nSaad Omer, an assistant professor at Emory University who was not involved in the study, said he was not surprised by the results.\nMost parents' decisions about immunizations are based upon perceptions of how common and dangerous a disease is, Omer said, and perceptions of how safe and effective a vaccine is.\n\"There is a reason why the rates of vaccine-preventable diseases are low,\" he said, \"and that's because of the vaccines.\"\nIn the UK some parents are still refusing to have their children vaccinated against measles, mumps and rubella after a false scare linked the MMR vaccine with autism.\nThere is no evidence of a link.\nDr Saad Omer \u2013who\u2019s an Assistant\nProfessor of Public Health at Emory\nUniversity in the US \u2013 says that policy makers need to be careful if they change the rules in the UK \u2013 as there could be a backlash against vaccination.\nGrowing Outbreaks of Whooping Cough Raise Health Fears\nGrowing outbreaks of whooping cough\nincluding a California epidemic that has killed six babies \u2014 are worrying public health officials who fear that sporadic vaccination practices may be contributing to dangerous\ncases of the preventable disease.\n\"I'm saddened, but I can't truly say I'm\nsurprised,\" said Dr. Saad B. Omer,\"....We know and we have known for a while that we have these gaps in protection at\nthe local level.\"\nRising Public Health Risk Seen as More Parents Reject Vaccines\nChildren who are not vaccinated are unnecessarily susceptible to serious illnesses, they say, but also present a danger to children who have had their shots \u2014 the measles vaccine, for instance, is only 95 percent effective \u2014 and to those children too young to receive certain vaccines.\nHow Can H1N1 Vaccine Be Optimally Distributed?\nReporting in the journal Science on Friday, an epidemiologist-mathematician team says it has developed a mathematical model of influenza transmission that analyses the best strategy for distributing vaccines among different age groups in a way that would minimize the spread of the virus.\nThe broader point regarding the usefulness of quantitative models for making decisions on public health is valid, says Saad B. Omer, professor of global health and epidemiology at Emory University in Atlanta. But it might not be very relevant for India because the model uses European data and makes assumptions about how people intermingle; this mixing pattern could vary in India.\nLessons learned: Risk of serious flu-related sickness far outpaces risk of injectable vaccine in pregnant women\n\u201cHealth care providers will play a key role in women\u2019s decisions about whether or not to be vaccinated against H1N1,\u201d said study senior investigator Saad Omer, of Emory University. \u201cThere is substantial evidence that vaccination is not only safe for pregnant women but that it is critical for protecting women and their infants against serious complications from the flu. Physicians and other providers should talk about risks and benefits with their patients and help alleviate any unfounded fears.\u201d\nFlu Vaccine During Pregnancy May Help Reduce the Risk of Premature Birth\n\"Influenza vaccine has been administered for decades to pregnant women and has a strong safety record. In this paper, for the first time, we document a protective effect of the vaccine on the fetus and the newborn.\"\nOmer says this research only shows an association between influenza vaccination and reduced risk of prematurity, but does not demonstrate a causal link.\nHe says studies in other populations, particularly randomized controlled trials, are needed to confirm their results.\nMore Parents Say No to Vaccines\nDespite the uptick in cases of vaccine-preventable disease like measles and whooping cough, some parents remain deeply suspicious of vaccines \u2013 and will likely stay that way.\nCalifornia is one of 20 states allowing philosophical exemptions to vaccines for schoolchildren, as a distinction from religious or medical exemptions. While overall the number of unvaccinated children in California is low, clusters of exemptions create pockets of vulnerability, said Dr. Saad Omer, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Emory University.\n\u201cThese kids are not spread evenly, and it increases the risk at the local level,\u201d he said.\nParents Distrust, Delay Vaccines, Survey Finds\n\"When you increase coverage of vaccines, the rates of those diseases start going down,\" said Dr. Saad Omer, an assistant professor of Global Health, Epidemiology and Pediatrics at Emory University.\nSo fewer people can remember seeing someone with the disease, and \"at the same time, people start hearing more about the real or perceived vaccine adverse events,\" Omer said.\nThis creates an environment where parents are more likely to fear the vaccine more than the disease.\nStudies Dig Into Physicians' Views on Vaccine Issues\nIn the first study, Saad Omer, PhD, MPH, MBBS, assistant professor of global health, epidemiology, and pediatrics at Emory University in Atlanta, and his colleagues wondered if a \"cohort effect\" found in parents who grew up in an age when they did not encounter vaccine-preventable diseases plays any role in the vaccine beliefs of healthcare providers.\n\"What we wanted to see is, can the effect be seen in physicians, as well? For providers who have seen a case of whooping cough or treated meningitis, that experience is a little more visceral,\" Omer said.\nThey found that younger doctors were more likely to believe that immunizations do more harm than good. Also, the more recent graduates were 15% less likely to believe vaccines were effective, compared with older ones.\nOnce Common Diseases Slipping Past Younger Doctors\nAs rates of now-preventable diseases have plummeted with the success of\nvaccines, infectious-disease experts worry that doctors no longer have the experience to diagnose them and that many parents now fear the vaccines more than the diseases. Younger doctors, according to a recent study, don't take vaccines as seriously as their older colleagues.\n\"We're losing the memory of these diseases, and that is a problem,\" said the study's author, Saad Omer, an infectious-disease epidemiologist at Emory University's Vaccine Center.\nVaccine Exemption Bills Often Introduced but Rarely Passed\nResearchers identified 36 bills that were introduced in 18 state legislatures between 2009 and 2012 to change school immunization requirements. Most of those bills aimed to allow more parents the ability to refuse vaccinations for their children.\nAbout 86 percent of the bills sought to expand access to exemptions while the remaining bills sought to restrict exemptions. None of the bills attempting to expand access to vaccine exemptions passed into law, but Washington, California and Vermont each passed laws to restrict exemptions.\n\"Concerted efforts by individual clinicians and professional associations can benefit the legislative process by emphasizing public health considerations and the use of science in developing public policy,\" Omer wrote.\nSchool Vaccine Opt-Outs Rise in Private Schools Increases Risk of Disease Outbreak, Physicians Say\nParents who send their children to private schools in California are much more likely to opt out of immunizations than their public school counterparts, an Associated Press analysis has found, and not even the recent re-emergence of whooping cough has halted the downward trajectory of vaccinations among these students.\nSaad Omer, a professor of global health at Emory University in Atlanta who has studied vaccine refusal in private schools, surmised more private school parents are wealthy and have the time to spread five shots over a series of years and stay home should their child get an illness like chickenpox. Neal Halsey, a professor of pediatric infectious diseases at the Johns Hopkins University, said parents who choose private schools are likely to be more skeptical of state requirements and recommendations.\nDr. Omer\u2019s study categorizes state exemption policies on a scale from easy to difficult. The easiest rules require parents only to fill out a standardized form, which often involves merely checking a box. More stringent policies require parents to write a letter, detailing precisely why they believe their children should be exempt. \u201cThese laws have an impact,\u201d he said. \u201cThe idea is to nudge the balance of convenience away from getting exemptions.\u201d\nExtra MMR Vaccine Helped Prevent Mumps In Outbreak\nGiving kids and teens in a New York community a third dose of the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine likely helped halt a mumps outbreak in late 2009 and early 2010, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\n\"The vaccine is so safe and the evidence is very reasonable now,\" Omer, who wasn't involved in the new study, told Reuters Health. \"I think (a third vaccine) should be on the list of first-line options for decent-sized outbreaks.\"\nMumps outbreaks are most common in crowded settings such as college dorms and prisons, he added. So the recent outbreak in religious schools \"is not all that unique.\"\nClose To Half of Kids Late Receiving Vaccines: Study\nResearchers said that trend is cause for concern because if enough kids skip their vaccines, whole schools or communities may be at higher risk for preventable infections such as whooping cough and measles.\n\"When that happens, it can create this critical mass of susceptible individuals,\" said Saad Omer, from the Emory Vaccine Center in Atlanta.\n\"For some vaccinated kids, their risk of getting the disease also goes up,\" Omer, who wasn't involved in the new study, told Reuters Health.\nIn Texas and Beyond, Hot Spots for Vaccine Refusers Alarm Officials\nAn outbreak of measles among unimmunized members of a Texas megachurch is fueling new health worries about pockets of vaccine-wary parents -- just as more than 50 million public school kids head back to class across the nation.\n\u201cThe rate of change has sort of accelerated,\u201d said Dr. Saad Omer, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Emory University in Atlanta who studies clusters of vaccine exemptions in public schools.\nVaccination Opt-outs Found to Contribute to Whooping Cough Outbreaks in Kids\nThe research found significant overlaps of areas with high numbers of whooping cough cases and areas where more parents had sought legal exemptions to opt out vaccinating their children.\n\u201cThe strength of our approach was not just to find out the clustering of cases but also the statistical significance of the clustering overlap,\u201d says senior author Saad Omer, an associate professor at Emory University School of Medicine\u2019s Vaccine Center. \u201cThis tells us whether the clustering is by chance or not.\u201d Neither the clusters nor their overlapping was by chance.\nHow Many People Aren't Vaccinating Their Kids in Your State?\nIn a 2012 study of vaccine exemption policies across the country, a team of researchers led by Saad Omer, a professor of public health at Emory University, found that of the 20 states that allowed personal-belief exemptions for enrollment in a public school or child care program, less than a third made it \"difficult\" to do so...\nIn the nine \"easy\" states identified in the study, the rules required only signing a form. Indeed, Omer suspects that some parents sign vaccine exemption forms not because they actually hold anti-vaccine beliefs, but simply because it's easier than juggling the doctors' appointments, missed work, and other inconveniences of getting kids vaccinated.\nTwo Countries, One Deadly Disease\n\u201cWe haven\u2019t seen the drastic drops in coverage that the U.K. saw, and I believe this is at least partially due to immunization laws,\u201d says Saad Omer, associate professor of global health at Emory University.\nHe says people outside the U.S. often see these laws as \u201cdraconian\u201d because they misunderstand how they work.\n\u201cIn reality, these laws change the balance of convenience from non-vaccination to vaccination,\u201d Omer says. \u201cThe basis of these laws is in the police powers of the state, predating the Constitution. States can compel people to do a few things that are in the overall interest of society, and these have provided a buffer against drastic drops in coverage.\u201d\nFewer California Parents Refuse To Vaccinate Children\nCalifornia has long been criticized for making it too easy for parents to avoid immunizing their children. Before, all a parent had to do was sign a slip of paper at the school office.\nThe new immunization law signed by Gov. Jerry Brown requires all parents who sought the exemption to first speak with a healthcare provider. But in his signing statement, Brown allowed parents to seek a religious exemption without seeing a medical professional.\n\"That was a bit of a disappointment,\" said Saad Omer, associate professor in the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University. But he added that the new data show promise that the immunization law is working.\nMeasles Outbreak: Doctors See Tighter 'Philosophical' Vaccine Exemption as Fix\nAt least 20 states, including California, currently permit such broad \u201cpersonal belief\u201d vaccination exemption for parents, many of whom are skeptical of mainstream science. The findings of a 2012 study led by infectious disease epidemiologist Saad Omer show that legislation narrowing parents\u2019 exemption options could help bring down the opt-out rates.\n\u201cWhat we showed was that there was an association between rates of exemptions and the ease of obtaining an exemption,\u201d Omer, an associate professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University, told the Guardian. \u201cThe more difficult it is to obtain an exemption, the lower the rate of exemption, and the lower the rate of disease.\u201d\nVaccine Experts: It's Time To 'Nudge' Hesitant Parents\n\u201cThe public mood may be able to pass these laws now, but the concern is when this current dies down,\u201d said Dr. Saad B. Omer, a professor of global health and epidemiology at Emory University, who has studied so-called \u201chot spots\u201d of vaccine resistance, including several in Washington state.\n\u201cMy fear is that in the long run, it may end up backfiring,\u201d Omer added. Instead, it might be better to \u201cnudge\u201d parents into compliance rather than penalizing them.\nThe Problem of Nonmedical Exemptions From School Vaccine Mandates is Getting Worse\nOmer\u2019s results were not the least bit unexpected, but the reason for him to do the study is (1) to determine whether \u201ccommon wisdom\u201d about vaccine exemptions is correct (it turns out that it is) and (2) to quantify the effect, which is what Omer et al tried to do. Common sense and an understanding of human nature tell us that if something\u2019s easy to get more people will take it and that if something\u2019s harder to get fewer people will take it.\nStates Target Anti-Vaccine Parents Amid Measles Outbreak\nSome health experts don\u2019t recommend a full ban on philosophical exemptions. In an op-ed today in the New York Times, Saad B. Omer, an Emory University epidemiologist, said laws should simply make it more difficult to get exemptions -- obtaining documents in person instead of online, requiring forms to be notarized, filing for a renewal of the exemption each year.\n2013 Young Investigator Award: Saad B. Omer, MBBS, PhD, MPH\nDr Saad Omer is a young investigator with a record of major accomplishments in pediatric infectious disease research. He has worked on studies in Guatemala, Ethiopia, India, Pakistan, Uganda, Bangladesh, South Africa, and the United States. Dr Omer\u2019s research portfolio includes clinical trials to estimate efficacy and/or immunogenicity of influenza, polio, measles, and pneumococcal vaccines; studies on the impact of spatial clustering of vaccine refusers and clinical trials conducted in Ethiopia, India, and Uganda to evaluate drug regimens to reduce mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus in Africa. His work has informed and has been cited by many national and international guidelines, as well.\nParents Who Shun Vaccines Tend To Cluster, Boosting Children's Risk\n...some choose immunization schedules that defy science or refuse to vaccinate altogether.\n\u200bIf these parents were distributed randomly, their decisions would be less likely to harm others, especially babies too young for vaccination. But parents who use personal belief exemptions to avoid school vaccination requirements often live in the same communities, studies have found.\nDisneyland Measles Outbreak Reminds Us Of An Important Point About Vaccination\n\u200bThe battle has moved to state legislatures, where lawmakers have sought to make it easier for parents to obtain exemptions from vaccination requirements. However, all 31 bills introduced from 2009 to 2012 that would have loosened the exemption process were defeated, said Saad B. Omer, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Emory University who studies vaccine refusal. Three out of five bills that sought to tighten the requirement passed, he said.\nMeasles Cases Linked to Disneyland Rise, and Debate Over Vaccinations Intensifies\nHowever, all 31 bills introduced from 2009 to 2012 that would have loosened the exemption process were defeated, said Saad B. Omer, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Emory University who studies vaccines.\nExperts Concerned About Vaccination Backlash\nAround the world, vaccination rates are dropping, and the unthinkable is happening:\nchildren are dying from childhood\ndiseases like measles and pertussis.\nThis fall in immunisation has\ncoincided with an increasingly vocal\nanti-vaccination movement.\nHowever ludicrous some of the anti-\nvaccination messages might seem to\nscientists, it is hard to deny that they\ndo hold some traction with the public.\n\u201cAs the rate of illness goes down, and people\nmostly encounter real or perceived\nvaccine associated adverse events\n(instead of disease), there is a change\nin mental calculus in terms of benefit versus risk of vaccines\u201d, says Omer.\nFlu Shot May Prevent Pre-Term Births\nAccording to the report in\nPLOS Medicine, the odds of a premature birth during the eight-week period of widespread influenza activity were around 70 per cent lower for\nvaccinated mothers compared to mothers who did not\nreceive the influenza vaccine.\n\"Our finding suggests that influenza vaccination may be a\npotential tool for reducing adverse birth outcomes, particularly prematurity,\" says Omer.\nMD's Should Better Explain Vaccine Refusal Risks: NEJM\nOmer and his colleagues review evidence from several states that finds that in communities where the incidence of vaccine refusal has increased, the children are at substantially higher risk for infectious diseases, such as measles and whooping cough.\nEven children whose parents did not refuse vaccination -- those who are too young to be vaccinated, can't be vaccinated for medical reasons, or whose immune systems do not respond sufficiently to vaccination -- are put at risk because \"herd immunity\" normally protects those children.\nFaith Lets Some Kids Skip Shots\nRegardless of the reason, the ranks of parents exercising non-medical exemptions to vaccination are growing, public health officials say. Although the number remains small and involves an estimated 2 to 3 percent of the approximately 3 million children who start kindergarten annually, the trend alarms some experts. This refusal, scientists say, threatens a cornerstone of public health.\n\"Many states are making personal-belief exemptions easier,\" said Saad B. Omer, a vaccine researcher at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. \"Filing for an exemption should at least be a function of conviction, not laziness.\"\nWhy Vaccine Compliance Matters\nAn outbreak of measles in the state of Washington last year sickened 19 children. Of those\nwho fell ill, 18 had something in common\u2014they were not vaccinated.\n\u201cVaccine-preventable diseases such as measles, influenza, and pertussis often start among persons who forego\nvaccinations, spread rapidly within unvaccinated populations, and also spread to other sub-populations,\u201d says\nOmer, assistant professor of global health in the RSPH and an affiliate faculty member of the Emory Vaccine Center.\n\u201cEveryone benefits from vaccines.\"\nHealth Officials to Consider Tightening Vaccine Exemptions\nCalifornia\u2019s vaccine exemption system is among the easiest in the country, said Dr. Saad Omer, of the Emory Vaccine Center at Emory University in Atlanta, who has compared exemptions around the country. California law requires only that a parent sign a form called a personal belief affidavit \u2013 also known as a personal belief exemption \u2013 stating that immunizations are contrary to his or her beliefs.\nOmer found that in states where getting an exemption is easy, such as in California, the rate of whooping cough was at least 50 percent higher than in states that made it more difficult for parents to opt out.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not just an abstract legal requirement,\u201d Omer said. \u201cIt has an impact on disease rates.\u201d\nFlu Shot May Lower Odds for Preemie Delivery\nU.S. researchers looked at data on nearly 4,200 births between June 2004 and September 2006 in the state of Georgia. About 15 percent of the women received a flu shot during pregnancy.\nPregnant women who received the vaccine and who gave birth during the assumed flu season (from October through May) were 40 percent less likely to have a baby born prematurely, that is, before 37 weeks' gestation, the study found.\n\"The effect is significant during the flu period, and it goes up along with the intensity of flu circulation,\" said lead study author Saad B. Omer, an assistant professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics at Emory University Schools of Public Health & Medicine.\nSan Diego County Has Highest Growth in Vaccine Exemption\nSan Diego County saw a higher increase than any other county in the state last year in the number of incoming kindergartners who received philosophical exemptions from state vaccine requirements, according to a review by the Watchdog Institute.\nThe review found that half of the kindergartners who received exemptions are enrolled in only 10% of the schools. Saad Omer -- an infectious diseases epidemiologist at Emory University -- said the clusters of exemptions could increase the risk of spreading vaccine-preventable diseases at the local level.\nYounger Docs Less Sold on the Value of Vaccines\nIn a cross-sectional survey of 551 healthcare providers, more recent graduates were less likely to think that vaccines were efficacious, according to Saad Omer, MBBS, PhD, of Emory University in Atlanta.\nIn one way, Omer said, the finding may be a result of the very success of vaccination programs. \"With such a low burden of disease, the efficacy and real or perceived side effects of vaccines may be the most significant factors contributing to vaccination behaviors,\" he and Mergler argued.\nRecent Medical Graduates More Doubtful of Vaccines vs. Older Counterparts\n\u201cAs cohorts of parents who have not experienced vaccine-preventable diseases come of childbearing age, their support of vaccines may be less than a cohort of parents who grew up directly experiencing the high rates of vaccine-preventable diseases,\u201d Saad B. Omer, MBBS, MPH, PhD, assistant professor at Emory University, said during the press conference.\n\u201cOur findings should be further investigated and replicated in other studies, with a potential policy implication of improved vaccine-related medical curricula and training,\u201d Omer said.\nDeadly Choices: How the Anti-Vaccine Movement Threatens Us All.\n\"In 2006, Saad Omer and his colleagues, also from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, examined the impact of philosophical exemptions. Between 1991 and 2004, the number of unvaccinated children in states with exemptions more than doubled. Children in states with easy-to-obtain exemptions (granted by the simple signing of a form) were almost twice as likely to suffer outbreaks of whooping cough.\"\nMore Oregon Kids on \"Alternative\" Vaccine Schedules\nDelaying or avoiding shots through alternative schedules have known risks -- such as increasing the amount of time babies are susceptible to certain disease -- but no known benefits, according to the authors from the Oregon Health Authority and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), who published their study in the journal Pediatrics on Monday.\n\"The findings are not surprising, but they're troubling,\" said Dr. Saad Omer, an assistant professor at Emory University in Atlanta.\nOmer, who was not involved with the new study, said past research showed that some parents reported plans to not follow the recommended vaccine schedule. These numbers, he said, show those parents acted on those plans.\nMore Kids Opting Out of School-Required Vaccinations: Study\nThe number of parents who opted out of school-required vaccines for their children because of non-medical reasons, such as religious or philosophical beliefs, increased between 2005 and 2011, according to U.S. researchers.\nDuring this period, the rates of non-medical exemptions were higher in the states with easy opt-out policies, such as California and Maryland, and in those states that allowed philosophical, instead of only religious, exemptions.\n\"The more relaxed these requirements are, as we and others have shown, the easier it is to get an exemption, the higher the rates of exemptions,\" said Saad Omer, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Emory University in Atlanta, and lead study author.\n\"It is common sense to me that it should not be easier to file for an exemption than it is to get your kid vaccinated,\" Omer said.\nIncreasing Vaccine Compliance for School Immunizations\n\"Since school immunization requirements play a major role in controlling vaccine-preventable diseases in the United States, studies like this underscore the need for states to examine their current exemption policies,\" says lead author Saad B. Omer, assistant professor of global health, epidemiology and pediatrics, Emory's Rollins School of Public Health and Emory University School of Medicine.\nResearchers led by Emory University's Saad Omer found that from the school years 2005-2006 to 2010-2011, parents have taken advantage of nonmedical exemptions at not only an increased but also an accelerated rate. So far, resulting holes in vaccination coverage in the U.S. have enabled whooping cough and measles to make comebacks.\nUS States Make Opting Out of Vaccinations Harder\nTo increase vaccination rates, law-makers want to make it harder to get an exemption than it is to get a vaccination.\nThis idea is backed by studies linking the existence of personal-belief exemptions, and the ease of getting them, to reduced vaccination rates and increased incidence of disease.\nResearch by Saad Omer, an epidemiologist at the Emory Vaccine Center in Atlanta, Georgia, points out similar abuses: he and his colleagues have found that medical exemptions are up to six times more common in states that have lax medical-exemption requirements or don't allow philosophical exemptions.\nFlu Shots Offer Poor Protection to Seniors\n\"We're well aware that influenza vaccines, in particular, work less effectively as you get older,\" said Joseph Bresee, a medical epidemiologist at the CDC.\nStill, the CDC estimates shouldn't dissuade physicians from suggesting seniors get vaccinated, said Saad B. Omer, a public-health assistant professor at Emory University who researches flu-shot efficacy. \"The doctor's advice should not\nchange,\" Dr. Omer said.\nPerspective: The Risk of Measles in Religious Communities\n\u201cUnvaccinated people tend to cluster geographically and these clusters are often associated with disease outbreaks. There are several such areas in the U.S. and outside the US,\u201d says Dr Saad Omer, Associate Professor Global Health, Epidemiology, and Pediatrics at Emory University.\nDr. Omer also says boosting vaccine confidence requires a multifaceted approach. \u201cMaintaining public confidence in vaccines by conducting robust vaccine safety surveillance, enabling healthcare providers to effectively communicate with parents regarding vaccines, and effective messaging to parents that focuses not only on whether or not a specific adverse event is associated with vaccination but also discuss the risks of non-vaccination.\u201d\nRequirements that children going to school receive certain vaccinations \u201chave played an important role in maintaining high immunization coverage in the United States,\u201d the researchers, led by Saad Omer of Emory University, wrote.\nPublic Health: An Injection of Trust\nThe refusal numbers are low \u2014 just 2% for 2010\u20132011, according to the CDC \u2014 but epidemiologist Saad Omer of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, has observed a disconcerting rise. \u201cThe rate of refusal has gone up, and even the rate of change compared to previous years has accelerated,\u201d he says.\nOmer found that non-medical exemption rates were 2.3 times higher in states with easy requirements than in those with steeper administrative barriers. \u201cIf you make it easier for a parent who is hesitant and on the fence to claim an exemption, it looks like they will,\u201d he says.\nHundreds of Georgia Schools May be Vulnerable to Disease Outbreaks\nUnvaccinated children aren\u2019t the only ones at risk, experts say. So, too, are others who come into contact with students\u2014like infants or grandparents. Even vaccinated children can become ill since some vaccines don\u2019t always fully protect against disease.\n\u201cEven if you do the right thing and get your child vaccinated with a vaccine with 80-percent efficacy, there\u2019s a 1 in 5 chance that your child could still get infected,\u201d said Saad Omer, an associate professor in Emory University\u2019s Rollins School of Public Health.\nA Way Out of The Vaccine Wars\nPeople who are told that their dearly held beliefs are stupid and selfish tend to withdraw from the conversation while continuing to do whatever they did before.\n\u201cIf you insult people or you disrespect people, you can harden their perspective,\u201d says Saad Omer, a professor of global health and epidemiology at Emory University\u2019s Rollins School of Public Health.\nMore States Are Letting Parents Refuse To Vaccinate Their Kids\nAccording to a 2012 study led by Saad Omer, a professor of global health and epidemiology at Emory University, allowing PBEs leads to fewer kids getting vaccinated. Opt-out rates in states with PBEs are more than double those in states with religious exemptions alone.\nThese vaccination gaps result in higher rates of diseases like measles and whooping cough, especially in states where PBEs are easily obtained.\n\"We do know that states that have philosophical exemptions tend to have not only high rates of exemption but also high rates of disease,\" Omer says.\nYes. The CDC Childhood Immunizations Schedule is Safe. For Reals\nThe spoiler: this is big, big, big news. This is the first time the IOM has reviewed the entire current childhood vaccination schedule and given it a thumbs up for safety. If you\u2019re a parent, this news either tells you what you already knew, or it should significantly reassure you if you had concerns about the safety of the schedule.\nThe IOM is truly the gold standard in assessing medical questions based on the current research. In this report, the IOM took up study of the CDC vaccination schedule because there has been concern in some circles that kids get too many shots too soon.\nThey also spoke to leading epidemiologists in the field of vaccine research, such as Dr. Jason Glanz at Kaiser Permanente Colorado and Dr. Saad Omer at Emory (University) Vaccine Center.\nMore Parents Opting Out of Vaccines In Some States, Emory Study Finds\n\u201cThe reason we are concerned about this is because people who seek exemptions tend to cluster in certain communities,\u201d says Omer.\nIn other words, group mentality sometimes takes over. And that changes the equation, Omer says.\nFor example, a vaccine that\u2019s 90% effective can prevent an outbreak even if it fails 10% of the time. That\u2019s because other children are vaccinated.\nBut if a good number of children aren\u2019t vaccinated, it makes the likelihood of an outbreak greater.\n\u201cThat means that all of us have a stake in maintaining high vaccine coverage, not just at the national and state level, but also at the local and school level,\u201d says Omer.",

Le Moyne, the fourth-ranked program in the East Region, has won 12-straight games, improving to 16-2 overall and to 10-2 against league foes.\nJunior Shannon Ryan (Plattsburgh, N.Y.) led the Hawks with 28 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks, making 12-of-29 field goals from the floor. She has recorded a double-digit point scoring total in each of her last nine games played and has picked up at least 12 rebounds in five-straight contests. She has 14 double-doubles on the year and entered play ranked second in NCAA Division II in that statistic.\nRyan exited the game with exactly 100 career blocks, becoming only the fourth student-athlete in team history to reach that milestone. She trails Andrea Sunday '95, Liz Cranmer '91 and Jen Carson '04 \u2013 Sunday owns the program record of 340 blocks across a four-year career while Cranmer and Carson have posted 200 and 182 rejections, respectively.\nJunior Sara Messler (Durham, N.H.) had nine points and four rebounds, setting a personal-high mark with 187 points this season, and sophomore Peyton Steinman (Pittsfield, Mass.) chipped in with eight points, six rebounds and two steals. As a team, the Hawks shot under 30% from the floor, the lowest in a game since a 60-51 loss to nationally-ranked Bentley on Dec. 8.\nThe Hawks built up a modest six-point lead only six minutes into the first quarter as Steinman capped the scoring stretch with a fast-break layup that created a 10-4 lead. Saint Anselm closed the opening quarter with a five point advantage, 14-9, and limited the Dolphins to only four made field goals on 17 shots.\nLe Moyne countered its first quarter shooting woes by outscoring the Hawks by a 22-11 margin in the second stanza. The Dolphins capitalized on four Hawks turnovers and scored eight second-chacne points, including three on the fast-break. McKayla Roberts, who recently reached 1,000 career points in a Le Moyne uniform, struck for 10 points and three assists in only eight minutes of action.\nThe Hawks offense had only four made baskets in the third quarter and the Le Moyne offense began to take over, shooting north of 61% from the floor (8-for-13). The Dolphins came out of the locker room with 20 of the third quarter's first 28 points, taking complete control the game and elevating its then game-high lead to 18 points with 12:04 left in regulation time.\nBoth teams scored 19 points in the fourth quarter, but the offensive woes for Saint Anselm in the second and third quarters created an insurmountable hole. Roberts added 13 additional points in the fourth quarter to finish with a team-leading mark of 33 \u2013 she made all 12 of her free throw attempts in the win.",

Being an EU member state, you can move to the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden etc\n\u2022 Malta is an English speaking country and former British colony\n\u2022 Needs only an annual income of \u20ac24,000 (US$30,000) from business profits, rents, investment income etc\n\u2022 No minimum stay requirements\nEmbassy of Malta\nFaximile : 62276707\nAny foreigner, of whatever nationality, may submit an application for a permanent residence permit provided the capital or annual income conditions are satisfied. This permit is issued on an indefinite basis.\nConditions for the Issue of a Residence Permit\nCapital or Income Qualifications\nApplicants must produce evidence of EITHER:\n1. an annual income of \u20ac24,000 (US$30,000) or over, consisting in business profits, rents, investment income, pension, or a combination thereof;\n2. a capital equivalent to \u20ac360,000 (US$450,000) or over, in the form of bank account holdings, real estate, investments and other assets situated in any country outside Malta.\nIn either case, the whole amount is not required to be brought into the country, and the value of the property purchased locally is also taken into account as part of the capital requirement, if you proceed to acquire real estate prior to the issue of a permit in your favour.\nConditions for the Renewal of a Residence Permit\nA. Acquisition or Rental of Property\nWithin a year from the issue of their residence permit, permanent residents must purchase their own residence in Malta at a value that is not less than \u20ac120,000 (US$150,000) in the case of a house or \u20ac72,000 (US$90,000) in the case of an apartment.\nAlternatively, the applicant may opt to lease or rent a property of which the minimum rental is \u20ac4,400 (US$5,400) per annum.\nWhile you may invest capital in Malta, investments in real estate outside Special Designated Areas are limited to one owner-occupied house or apartment. For more info on buying property in Malta, click here.\nB. Annual Income Remitted to Malta\nThe minimum annual income to be brought into the country is Lm6,000 per applicant, with an additional Lm 1,000 for each dependent (spouse, children under 21 years of age and parents/grandparents wholly dependent on applicant). In other words, a married couple would, for example, have to bring in at least Lm7,000 per annum.\nThere is no restriction as to how one must use money remitted under this rule as long as it is not retransferred out to a foreign bank account.\nC. Employment/Engagement in Business\nNo employment or engagement in business may be undertaken by applicants for permanent residency unless authorised by the competent authorities. Interestingly, however, official Government policy welcomes the introduction of overseas expertise and ideas in the tourism, manufacturing and catering sectors and a number of interesting options are outlined elsewhere.\nPermanent residents are not allowed to participate in political activities; however, should you be interested in local council activities you may contact the Local Councils Department for more information.\nWhy become a Permanent Resident in Malta?\nThere are a number of the reasons why an increasing number of foreigners are purchasing a home and taking up permanent residence in the Maltese Islands:\n\u2022 A pleasant climate and a hospitable English-speaking people.\n\u2022 A peaceful and safe way of life & high standard of living.\n\u2022 A rich cultural and historical heritage.\n\u2022 Freedom of movement into & out of Malta.\n\u2022 No minimum stay requirement.\n\u2022 Tax benefits.\n\u2022 Easy repatriation of capital & income out of Malta.\n\u2022 Favourable, tax-friendly procedure for moving your possessions to Malta.\n\u2022 Favourable double-taxation agreements with key countries.\n\u2022 A highly respected jurisdiction for incorporating low-tax companies\n\u2022 Excellent banking centre with the presence of major international banks\n\u2022 Excellent access by Sea and the Malta International Airport\nTax & Other Benefits of Maltese Residence.\n1. An unusually low tax rate\nA flat rate of 15% is chargeable on all income (less personal allowances) received in, or remitted to, Malta from either local or foreign sources. This is subject to a minimum payment of Lm1,800 per annum.\nOverseas capital funds invested locally are of course only taxed on any interest or dividends generated thereon, again at a 15% flat rate. Permanent residents also benefit from double taxation agreements existing between Malta, most European countries, Canada, Australia and the USA, ensuring that tax is never paid twice upon the same income.\n2. Exemption from Customs Duty/VAT\nYour used household and personal effects, furniture and other domestic articles (excluding firearms and weapons of all kinds) may be imported free of import duty if imported within six months of your arrival in Malta to take up residence. In such cases import licences are not required.\n3. Complete Freedom of Movement\nThere are no annual minimum stay requirements. A permanent residence may travel to and from Malta freely without the need of applying for a visa or extensions of stay.\n4. Vehicle Registration Fees\nPermanent Residents are allowed to register their imported vehicle at preferential rates.\n5. Repatriation of your capital and income\nProceeds from the sale of property, encashment of investments, local income and excess income brought into Malta may be freely repatriated by permanent residents, provided that any tax due has been settled.\n6. Rental of Property\nOwners of properties with swimming pools or properties enjoying the use of swimming pools are allowed to rent them out, provided that such properties are licensed as holiday accommodation by the Hotels and Catering Establishments Board. All income thereon, is of course, subject to the 15% tax rate mentioned in (1) above and may be repatriated as in (5) above.\n7. No death duties are payable in Malta\n1. If a property is purchased in one name, the heirs of the deceased have to pay 7% provisional tax on the value of the property declared. This value will in turn be verified by an appointed architect.\n2. If a property is bought jointly and one of the parties passes away, provisional tax of 7% is only paid on half the estate, i.e. half the value as stated in (1).\nThough no death duties are payable in Malta, Transfer duty (according to the Duty of Documents and Transfers Act, 1993) is charged on:\n\u2022 immovable property in Malta.\n\u2022 any shares in a locally registered company (excluding those companies listed on the stock exchange).\nSome beautiful condos in Malta:\nNew construction (http://www.tignepoint.com/):\nBoys fishing:\nStudents studying:\nwrcboi\nthis is attempting for a move......lol\nMalta is changing/have changed permanent residence requirements. The previous income requirement is only \u20ac24,000 (US$30,000) a year. They are now considering the High Net Worth individual scheme with minimum investments of \u20ac400,000.\nAs an EU member state, a Malta citizenship allows you to move and live in England, France, Germany, Sweden, Norway etc.\nlol. malta wants to a \"stepping stone\" passport to europe, just like sinkiepore used to be more ah tiongs? very funny leh. they think this is sustainable? or you think got lots of rich ah tiongs on SBF want a fake-euro citizzenship?\nI did some reading. Sounds like a pretty nice place to move to. High paying jobs may be an issue though. Also the Maltese language is something any prospective immigrant should aspire to learn as it will confer much advantage.\nnicolewong, so you're saying the US$30,000 scheme is history? No more?\nThey are going for 400k Euros now?",

        "title": "Illinois Supreme Court Rules Section 2-1117 Apportionment Applies Only to Non-Settling Defendants - Craig M. Sandberg - Sandberg Law Office, P.C.",
        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Articles \u00bb Illinois Supreme Court Rules S\u2026\nOn November 25th, the Illinois Supreme Court handed down its long-awaited decision in the matter of Ready v. United/ Goedecke Services, Inc. (Docket No. 103474) holding that apportionment under section 2-1117 of the Code of Civil Procedure does not apply to tortfeasors or defendants who have settled before judgment. This As a result, the Court found that settling defendants should not be included in the apportionment of fault for the purposes of determining relative liability pursuant to section 2-1117.\nIn December 1999, a pipe-refitting project was under way at the Midwest Generation, LLC (\u201cMidwest\u201d), power plant in Joliet, Illinois, where Michael Ready was employed as a maintenance mechanic. As part of this project, scaffolding material had to be raised from the ground to the level of the eighth floor. The general contractor of the project, BMW Construction, Inc. (\u201cBMW\u201d) had subcontracted with United/Goedecke Services, Inc. (\u201cUnited\u201d), to perform the scaffolding work, including the lifting of scaffolding materials.\nOn December 23, 1999, a United employee was supervising the lifting of wooden trusses. Another United was rigging the trusses for lifting, using a single sling. Ready was standing beneath the rigging so that he could give hand signals to the operator of the tugger that was being used to lift trusses. The tugger was owned by Midwest and was being operated by a Midwest employee. Eight trusses were lifted without incident. As the ninth truss was being lifted, it slipped out of the sling, falling eight floors to the ground floor where it struck and killed Ready.\nReady was survived by his wife, Terry, and two children. The wrongful death suit brought by Terry, as administrator of Ready\u2019s estate, named two defendants: United and BMW. Both defendants filed third-party complaints against Midwest pursuant to the Joint Tortfeasor Contribu- tion Act (\u201cContribution Act\u201d) (740 ILCS 100/0.01 et seq.) Plaintiff amended her complaint, adding Midwest as a defendant. She reached settlement agreements totaling $1.113 million with BMW and Midwest. United did not object to the settlements and the trial court found that they were reached in good faith.\nPrior to trial, based on rulings on certain motions in limine, United was not allowed to present any evidence at trial regarding the conduct of the settling defendants. In addition, the trial court denied United\u2019s motion to list BMW and Midwest on the verdict form so that if the jury found United at fault, it could consider whether to allocate some portion of the fault no only to Ready, but also to his employer and the general contractor.\nThe case proceed to trial with United as the sole defendant. The jury found United liable for negligence and awarded damages of $14.23 million. Based on Section 2-1117 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the trial court found United jointly and severally liable for the amount of the verdict remaining after offset for Ready\u2019s comparative negligence (35%) and the settlement amounts paid by BMW and Midwest. United was held liable in the amount of $8.137 million.\nThe Appellate Court of Illinois, First District reversed in part and remanded for a new trial as to liability only concluding that, under section 2-1117, a nonsettling defendant\u2019s fault should be assessed relative to the fault of all defendants, including settlement defendants. The court thus held that, in the case at bar, BMW and Midwest should have be included on the verdict form for purposes of apportioning fault.\nThe Illinois Supreme Court, however, found that settling defendants should not be included in the apportionment of fault for the purposes of determining. The plurality opinion, written by Justice Freeman and joined by Chief Justice Fitzgerald and Justice Burke, construed the statutory language \u201cdefendants sued by the plaintiff\u201d to be ambiguous, citing the diverse appellate holdings, as well as the majority\u2019s disagreement with the Justice Garmen\u2019s dissenting opinion. The plurality referred to: (1) the legislature\u2019s failure to amend the statute after it was first construed not to apply to settled parties in a Fifth District decision in 1995 (Blake v. Hy Ho Restaurant, Inc., 273 Ill. App. 3d 372, 652 N.E.2d 807 (5th Dist. 1995)), and (2) the 1995 tort reform amendments (struck down in Best v. Taylor Machine Works, 179 Ill. 2d 367, 689 N.E.2d 1057 (1997)) which had included settling defendants in the apportionment of fault as evidence that section 2-1117, as enacted in 1986, was never intended to include settling tortfeasors in the allocation of fault. The plurality also found support for its conclusion in certain recent remarks made by State Senator Cullerton as cosponsor of Senate Bill 1296, which the General Assembly had not enacted into law. Justice Garman, in her dissent, found the plain meaning of section 2-1117 to be unambiguous based on dictionary definitions of the word \u201csued\u201d and disagreed with the plurality\u2019s reliance on certain tools of statutory construction. The dissent concluded that the result reached by the plurality was contrary to the goals of the legislature in striking a balance between fully compensating injured parties and fair imposition of liability upon tortfeasors.\nU.S. Supreme Allows \u201cLight\u201d Tobacco Lawsuits\nOn December 15th the Supreme Court of the United States (Altria Group Inc., et al., v. Good, et al.; No. 07-562) cleared the way for smokers to file lawsuits to challenge deceptive marketing of cigarettes as \u201clight\u201d and \u201clow in tar and nicotine.\u201d The Court found that either the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act\u2019s (Labeling Act) (15 U.S.C. \u00a71334(b)) preemption provision nor the Federal Trade Commission\u2019s actions in this field preempt respondents\u2019 state-law fraud claim alleging violation of the Maine Unfair Trade Practices Act (\u201cMUTPA\u201d). The 5-4 ruling, with Justice John Paul Stevens writing for the majority, was announced in his absence by Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, who was also in the majority.\nRespondents, who have for over 15 years smoked \u201clight\u201d cigarettes manufactured by petitioners, Philip Morris USA, Inc., and its parent company, Altria Group, Inc., claimed that petitioners violated the Maine Unfair Trade Practices Act (\u201cMUTPA\u201d). Specifically, they allege that petitioners\u2019 advertising fraudulently conveyed the mes- sage that their \u201clight\u201d cigarettes deliver less tar and nicotine to consumers than regular brands despite petitioners\u2019 knowledge that the message was untrue. Petitioners denied the charge, asserting that their advertisements were factually accurate. The merits of the dispute were not before the Supreme Court because the District Court entered summary judgment in favor of petitioners on the ground that respondents\u2019 state-law claim was preempted by the Labeling Act. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reversed that judgment, and the Supreme Court granted certiorari to review its holding that the Labeling Act neither expressly nor impliedly preempts respondents\u2019 fraud claim.",

        "title": "Closing the Loop - Buy Recycled | Saskatchewan Waste Reduction Council",
        "raw_content": "Recycling is a good start, but the whole system falters if no one buys products made from recycled materials. Look for labels that indicate post-consumer content. Post-consumer means that the materials originally came from residential recycling programs. If the label doesn't specify, then the recycled materials likely are pre-consumer, which means that they are discards from the mill that are normally recycled anyway.\nMany boxboard containers (like cereal and kleenex boxes) are made with recycled content. A U.S.-based initiative, the 100% Recycled Paperboard Alliance, promotes the use of 100% recycled content in boxboard packages. Look for their symbol (to the right) to choose packages with the highest recycled content.\nThere are some products available in provincial grocery stores that do contain post-consumer recycled content. Facial tissue, lunch bags, toilet paper, paper towels, and paper cups may have recycled content\u2014check the labels. Office supply stores carry some products as well, although many don't contain 100% post-consumer content. We've been able to find photocopy paper, envelopes and mailing boxes with some post-consumer content.\nCompanies can specify purchasing requirements to include recycled content, as can governments. This type of initiative really makes a difference to establishing demand and to truly closing the loop on recycling.\nIf you\u2019re not buying products made from recycled materials, then you\u2019re not actually recycling. We all know this, but it\u2019s often difficult to find recycled content. Here are some things to look for:\n1. Recycled content symbol \u2014 the black background means that the product is made from recycled materials. If there\u2019s a number inside, it denotes the percentage of recycled content\n2. Post-consumer content \u2014 not all recycling claims are created equal. Post-consumer means that the paper came from a recycling program. If it just says \u2019recycled\u2019 the mill could be counting its own scraps that get tossed back into the mix (a good thing to do, but not helping consumers close the loop). In addition to the recycling symbol, many products include a statement on the percentage of post-consumer content.\nOffice supply stores are starting to carry more recycled paper. Staples.ca lists a photocopy paper made from 100% post-consumer recycled content [The 100% post-consumer paper costs more, so buy it and treat it like the precious resource it is by working on ways to reduce paper use.]\n3. Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) \u2014 the FSC has standards for forest management and certifies companies that manage forest resources in a sustainable manner. The FSC is a rigorous program that looks at \u2018chain of custody\u2019 on a product and ensures that all the companies involved in the production of a product are operating sustainably \u2014 from the forestry company, to the paper mill, to the paper distributor. If you must buy paper that isn\u2019t recycled, look for the FSC logo. It ensures that the paper was produced using the best management practices possible .\n(Source: Feb. 2008 WasteWatch)",

Cell phone stacking is the name that has been given to the new trend where those who are sitting down for dinner place their cell phones in the centre of the table and must not touch it for the duration of the meal because the first person who does is stuck with the bill for everyone.\n\u201cIt\u2019s definitely a distraction from wanting to answer your phone or text or you know what you\u2019re doing,\u201d says Matt Lankford, the general manager of Joe Taco in Amarillo, Texas. \u201cI think it\u2019s a pretty cool idea unless you\u2019re the first one that loses.\u201d\nThe concept of cell phone stacking has got restaurant goers excited, not only at the prospect of actually talking to one another more instead of to their cell phones, but also inevitably at the prospect of possibly getting a free meal should someone buckle to the temptation.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s neat, most of the time it\u2019s annoying when people are playing on their phones and you\u2019re trying to talk to them,\u201d says Sara Scroggins. \u201cI just think it\u2019s a good way to go back to the old fashion way of doing things, where it\u2019s just the people you\u2019re with.\u201d Some people have even begun to take the concept home and penalize either themselves or their children if they do the same thing during mealtimes.",

        "raw_content": "Ferocious Dog have been described as England\u2019s best folk-punk band, they tour relentlessly and most of their gigs are sold out.\nDuring 2017 the band played slots at some of the UK\u2019s and European favourite festivals, headlining a few of them along the way. They were on fire, playing to some of the largest audiences of their career including the famous Colours of Ostrava festival in the Czech Republic. They ended the year heading back to Europe to play in Spain, Belgium and Holland.\nFerocious Dog are a full-on six-piece band that encompass folk infused with rock, reggae and Celtic vibrations. The combination of instruments creates a palette of sound that offers infinite variations: going in hard to get the audience up and moving, or slipping into melodic passages and dub-like fusions. The songs are deeply personal and their fans can really identify with the words. Dan Booth, on fiddle, and John Leonard playing just about everything with strings, bring a huge amount of intricacy to the breakneck pace of their songs. Les Carter (ex Carter USM) on guitar and the rhythm section of Alex Smith and John Alexander hold things together brilliantly, and with Ken Bonsall\u2019s lyrics and sheer likability, you have a whole greater than the sum of its parts. Ferocious Dog are well known and popular for their high octane live performances.\n2017 saw the release of their latest studio album \u201cRed\u201d, which has been received with rave reviews.\n\u2022 \u201c5/5 Beguiling\u2026Their most mature offering to date.\u201d RnR Magazine\n\u2022 \u201c9/10 Earning a reputation as the UK\u2019s most exciting Folk Punk band for good reason\u201d \u2013 Vive Le Rock\n\u2022 \u201cRed is what you might expect: Populist, Richly veined and rarely done \u2013 one to sink your teeth into and howl.\u201d Nick Burbridge\n\u2022 \u201cThis is serious social commentary with superb tunes and Dan Booth's sublime violin takes the listener on a rollercoaster of emotion\u201d W.D Emsley.\n\u2022 \u201cFerocious Dog are a very socially conscious band and their music and lyrics are designed not only to make you smile and sing along but also to make you feel something. They are for people who like their music with a message and hopefully with other bands like them they can lead a social revolution that will make our world a little better\u201d. Folk-Metal.NL.\nWith Social Consciousness in mind, it is becoming public knowledge that at each gig, the band organize a Charity Food Drop for the homeless, liaising with the local Food Banks in the areas they play. Punters bring, nonperishable food, blankets, toiletries to the shows, and representatives from the food bank arrive to collect the goods, sometimes it amounts to a van full.\nThe role of the infamous Hell Hounds must not be underestimated - an ever-growing legion of fans who follow the band up and down the country. They form Totem poles of people, in the mosh pit. They bring energy and passion to the gig whilst always welcoming the less initiated members of the crowd to join in and swell their ranks \u2013 everyone has a ball.\nThe show will be opened by Jake Martin- find out more about Jake\u2019s music here https://jakemartinmuzic.com/home\n\u0093Without doubt Ferocious Dog are one of the best bands on the UK folk punk circuit as they brought Rock City to life with their stomping, energetic sound. Not only are they one of the most hardworking bands around, but as their fans will testify, they are also one of the most approachable\u0094\n\u2014 Nottingham Times\nPlease note that this will be a standing show downstairs.

But Elizabeth Manning reports that the San Rafael team, which won the game, 3-0, sponsored an additional gift even more practical for fans interested in fluids management: pregnancy tests.\nTeam president and general manager Michael Shapiro provided a rationale for the gift: \u201cIf you\u2019re not sure you\u2019re a dad, you should still have all the rights and responsibilities of other dads.\u201d There was another practical reason for the giveaway, which was advertised before the game. \u201cWe\u2019re a minor-league baseball team, and if you\u2019re a minor-league team, you have to do what you have to do to put people in the seats.\u201d\nThere were about 700 spectators at the game. About 22 tests were given out, to adults only. The team had bought a package of 50, so the leftovers can be used next Father\u2019s Day, said Shapiro. Because the Pacifics\u2019 season started on May 31, there was no Mother\u2019s Day giveaway. Shapiro said he\u2019s \u201chonestly thinking of having a Mother\u2019s Day in August.\u201d\nAs to other giveaways and takeaways, sometimes sorry is not enough. \u201cWells Fargo has gotten so clingy lately,\u201d reports Bay Gelldawg. \u201cOn Saturday, a teller wished me a Happy Father\u2019s Day. And on the way out, no fewer than four employees thanked me for my visit. And every time I used the ATM this month, I received an animated balloon \u2018Happy Birthday\u2019 message while waiting for the machine to spit out cash. Do they understand that a man needs his space?\u201d\nP.S.: Ken Maley read in the Advocate/Out magazine about Stolichnaya\u2019s gay pride custom label, the Harvey Milk Limited Edition. It is emblazoned with a picture of Milk with his bullhorn, and the words \u201cHe will never be silent.\u201d This was introduced in May, to coincide with Milk\u2019s birthday. Part of the proceeds will go to the Harvey Milk Foundation.\nStoli used to be a Soviet product and was for a time boycotted by gay bars because of that government\u2019s harsh treatment of gays. Nowadays, it is a privately owned company, and the vodka is produced in Latvia.\n\u2022 There are fashionistas in the Berkeley Police Department. A police report on Nextdoor, notes Andrea Behr, described a man who\u2019d allegedly broken into a home while the resident was out. When he returned, the man was just out of the shower, \u201chaving dressed himself in a Dockers dress shirt, Lands\u2019 End dress pants, and a waist belt from the resident\u2019s wardrobe.\u201d This report, having omitted the brand name of the belt, is incomplete.\n\u2022 Berkeley Bob had a visitor from Minneapolis who was reading The Chronicle over breakfast and asked, \u201cHey, is this Gov.

The dilemma was Nautilus\u2019 inability to pay for the image with the embargo on commerce with North Korea in force. Editors of the newsletter have inserted instead a picture of the lips of Kim Jong-um. The latter is a Kim impersonator with his own Facebook page, which reports that he traveled to Singapore a few days ago to shoot a picture with a Donald Trump impersonator, using the trappings of the summit as background. Much to their chagrin, however, all had been removed in preparation for a wedding.\n\u2022 Washington correspondent James Patterson says a new Wonder Woman movie has been filming at the Watergate and in Georgetown. I guess that\u2019ll do as an arena, but is it too late to bring Wonder Woman to the border, where she\u2019s really needed?\n\u2022 The Chronicle\u2019s Sam Whiting reported in August that the landlords at Opera Plaza were looking to toss out the Landmark theaters there, and establish a retail space on the site.

        "title": "The Angelina Jolie & Johnny Depp hookup rumor is so outlandish \u2013 SheKnows",
        "raw_content": "The Angelina Jolie & Johnny Depp hookup rumor is so outlandish\nAngelina Jolie and Brad Pitt\u2019s divorce was not something anyone foresaw, but it has since turned incredibly nasty with rumors and allegations flying around left, right and center.\nMore: Angelina Jolie was more prepared to divorce Brad Pitt than we all realized\nHowever, it\u2019s not just Pitt\u2019s relationships that have become a hot topic (there were rumors linking him to co-star Marion Cotillard; reports which she has since rubbished), but also Jolie\u2019s. According to a new report, she\u2019s been finding comfort in the form of one of Hollywood\u2019s leading men: Johnny Depp.\nDepp recently went through a bitter divorce with Amber Heard himself, so yes, he and Jolie probably do have quite a lot in common, and that may provide some sort of comfort. However, according to the report from Hollywood Life, Depp\u2019s friends think that he and Jolie will definitely be romantically linked in the future. Um, what?\n\u201cAll of Johnny\u2019s friends are expecting things to turn romantic between him and Angelina sooner than later,\u201d a source told the publication. \u201cShe\u2019s admitted to him that [she] had a crush on him since his 21 Jump Street days when they shot The Tourist together. He told her she [was] one of the most beautiful women he\u2019d ever seen.\u201d\nMore: A timeline of Brangelina\u2019s divorce: Why did Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie split?\nBut for now, according to the source, \u201cNothing physical happened, but it\u2019s been like a pressure cooker between them.\u201d In fact, the source has some pretty wild expectations for the future of Depp and Jolie and insists that their broken relationships will bond them, physically.\n\u201cNow they\u2019re both single, in dire pain and going to each other for support,\u201d the source said. \u201cIt\u2019s just a matter of time before they are in bed together. Do the math!\u201d\nHere\u2019s our issue with the report. People can definitely be friends without anything romantic or sexual coming into the equation, and because the alleged reason that Jolie decided to split from Pitt was for the good of her family (as she reportedly had issues with the way Pitt was parenting) we\u2019re pretty sure that she intends to focus solely on her six children in the upcoming months.\nBut what Jolie intends to do in her private life (and whatever men she may or may not end up with in the future) has nothing to do with anyone, and should certainly not be making headlines. And really, we hate the way this report seems to address Jolie\u2019s sexuality as if it were a bad thing.\nBut what do you think of the report about Jolie and Depp?

Just days after police were reportedly called to Spelling\u2019s home to address an alleged mental breakdown she had, McDermott\u2019s ex-wife, Mary Jo Eustace, is spilling more tea about the family\u2019s financials (though tea we\u2019re not sure we\u2019re drinking since she has so much against Spelling and McDermott).\nMore: Tori Spelling Wants a 6th Kid, Because the Brady Bunch\n\u201cMy son had gone to university, and Dean was supposed to pay his rent, and he wasn\u2019t,\u201d Eustace told Us Weekly. \u201cSo it was just a nightmare in the fall because we had set up this whole thing, and it looked like I was going to have back to court. Then my son\u2019s rent checks were bouncing, so it was not a good situation.\u201d\nShe continued, \u201cSo, I was on that path to go back to court again in November. That\u2019s when Tori reached out to me and basically said that she would be covering the alimony because Dean didn\u2019t have any money, and she would be doing it.\u201d\nWhile we\u2019re taking Eustace\u2019s account of things with a big grain of salt, this does line up with what others close to Spelling have been saying \u2014 that her family is still deeply in debt and McDermott is struggling to provide steady cash flow, so it\u2019s been falling to her to support the family of seven.\nMore: Tori Spelling Put Makeup on Her 9-Year-Old, & the Internet Isn\u2019t Having It\n\u201c[Tori] stepped up, and I accepted that. So that, sort of, our relationship took a turn there as well because she was owning up to it and taking responsibility for it, which was good,\u201d Eustace continued. \u201cShe did a couple of payments for it because she said she had gotten a job, so she could cover that. And then I guess about three weeks ago\u2026 yeah, about three weeks ago it was due again, and it didn\u2019t come through. Usually I just text her and she\u2019s like, \u2018I got it covered, no problem,\u2019 and all amicable. And then I didn\u2019t hear from her, I didn\u2019t hear any response. And I reached out to Dean and he didn\u2019t respond to me, and I reached out to both of them, and I didn\u2019t hear anything. On Sunday, or Monday, she reached out to me, and she said, \u2018You\u2019re not gonna believe this, but I just saw this.'\u201d\nEustace said Spelling has confided in her about frequent migraines and stress.\n\u201cI mean, I would assume that it\u2019s a very stressful chaotic situation over there,\u201d she said of Spelling and McDermott\u2019s home. \u201cAnd so, I don\u2019t know how that manifested so specifically, but I think it\u2019s just chaotic from what I understand, and from what I\u2019ve seen when I\u2019ve been around it. It\u2019s just chaos all the time.\u201d\nMore: Tori Spelling\u2019s Husband Dean McDermott Came So Close to Jail Time\nPolice didn\u2019t take any action that we know of when they responded to Spelling\u2019s home last weekend. But from the sound of things, the reality star is in a rough spot. We hope she gets through it soon.\ncelebrity health Dean McDermott Tori Spelling",

Lane attributed that decline in part to low visibility after the business relocated to the Westgate Shopping Center earlier in 2013.\nStrong sales continued this week, with the Bookshelf selling nearly 200 items on Monday, Lane said.\nThat money will go toward covering bills and other expenses, while funds generated by an online fundraising campaign will go toward the store's future \u2014 one that looks \"pretty optimistic,\" she said.\nAs of Tuesday afternoon, $4,535 has been raised out of a $25,000 goal, according to http://www.igg.me/at/save-our-shelf-truckee.",

They declared that musical critics say that the first variation is a masterpiece, while the second is an exaggerated imitation, totally deficient in self-subsistence and beauty. They said that that the aim of the experiment is to see whether laymen agree with the experts. Afterwards, experimenters played the same record twice2.

        "raw_content": "PEOPLE/RULERS\nFrom about 500 BC a tribe called the Celts came from Europe to Britain and Ireland. Many of them stayed, and probably passed on their ideas and their language to the people already living in Britain. Over the next 500 years Celtic tribes occupied the whole of Britain.\nAD 43 -\nThe Romans invaded and conquered the south of Britannia, as they called it, in AD 43, and the Celts were pushed back into Wales, Scotland and Ireland, but it was not easy defeating them. The Celts attacked in the north, and in the south a Celtic tribe destroyed Colchester and London. The Romans left Britain in AD 410.\nInvaders from Denmark, Holland and Germany began invading south-east Britain in AD 449. These were the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes. The Celtic Britons were pushed back once more to Wales and Scotland by the fierce Anglo-Saxon warriors. The way the Anglo-Saxons overwhelmed the native Britons is illustrated in their vocabulary. The Old English of the Anglo-Saxons contains only a few Celtic words, and some of these refer to geographical features which were new to the Saxons: crag, tor (a high rock) and combe (a deep valley).\nThe first major change to Old English happened in AD 597 when St Augustine brought Christianity to Britain. Church words came from Latin, Greek and Hebrew, and these were borrowed and absorbed into the language. Most importantly the monks brought Latin script, which meant Old English could now be written down. To the Celts, the German invaders were all Saxons, but gradually the terms Anglii and Anglia entered the language, referring to invaders generally. The language of these warriors was Englisc (or Old English), and by AD 1000 their newly conquered territory became known as Englaland, home of the Angles.\nRaids by the Vikings from Norway and Denmark began in AD 793 along the north-east coast, and by AD 850 the Vikings controlled almost half the country. They then attacked the kingdom of Wessex in the south, and were very nearly successful, but were defeated by King Alfred in AD 878. The Danes withdrew to the north and lived more or less peacefully with the Anglo-Saxons in the south. After Alfred had captured London he changed his title from \u2018King of the West Saxons\u2019 to \u2018King of the English\u2019. He is considered the first English king, and details of his reign were recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle in 892.\nNorse, the language of the Danes had the same Germanic roots as Old English, so the Danes and Saxons could understand each other more or less. The effect of these two cultures coming together was that the language of Old English became more simplified. The influence the Vikings had on our language can still be seen today in place names ending in \u2013by, which originally meant a farm, then a village, as in Derby and Grimsby. Words such as get, hit, leg, low, skin, ill and want are all of Viking origin.\nThe next big change in the English language came in 1066 when the Normans, under William, invaded from northern France and defeated King Harold II at the Battle of Hastings. Harold was the last English-speaking king of England for nearly three hundred years.\nAll important positions in society were now held by Normans. In government, religion and all written records the language used was either French or Latin, both unknown to most of the uneducated people of England. English only survived as the spoken language of the people of England because it was so well established.\nAnother significant reason for the survival of English was the fact that almost immediately after the conquest many Normans began to intermarry with Anglo-Saxons. Even King Henry I married Matilda of Scotland. The effect of this kind of cultural interaction was that many French and Latin words entered the language.\nOne of the reasons modern English has such a rich vocabulary (about 500,000 words, compared with German - 185,000 and French - less than 100,000) is from the mingling of the languages of Old English, French and Latin, which allows us to make fine distinctions in meaning, for example ask \u2013 question \u2013 interrogate, time \u2013 age - epoch.\nFrom 1204 to 1244 many of the Normans who had divided their time between Normandy and England lost their land in France, and decided to stay in England. Documents began to be written in English, and the use of French began to decline. By 1250 it was becoming a foreign language; English was becoming the first language of the country.\nIn 1348 the \u2018Black Death\u2019 killed about a third of the population, and in places where people lived communally, such as monasteries, plague deaths were higher. The result of this was that many semi-educated non-French or Latin speakers entered the Church.\nGeoffrey Chaucer is considered the father of English as a literary language. At a time when literature was dominated by the classical languages Chaucer began writing poetry in his native English, and it was far superior to anything before. He began his most famous work, The Canterbury Tales, in about 1387.\nThe first English translation of the Bible was made in 1388.\nLancaster & York\nDuring the Hundred Years\u2019 War against France (1338 \u2013 1453) Henry V became the first king since Harold to use English in his official documents. It was symbolic that he chose to use English rather than French, which was the language of his enemies.\nIn 1476 Thomas Caxton introduced the printing press to England. He set up a workshop near Westminster Abbey, using the English of London as his \u2018standard\u2019. The printing press was a communication revolution, the cornerstone of the Renaissance, and as a result hundreds of Latin words entered the language.\nPrinting transformed society in Britain; it accelerated the education of the middle class, and it is thought that by 1600 nearly half the population had some basic literacy. This rise in literacy had an enormous effect on the English language, because the common people wanted to read books in English, not Latin. The printers tried to satisfy the demands of their customers. One of the first books to be printed in English was Chaucer\u2019s Canterbury Tales.\nIn 1539, in support of the Protestant view that everyone should be able to read the Bible in their own language, Henry VIII allowed the Bible to be printed in English.\nIt is due to the explorer Sir Walter Raleigh\u2019s determination to establish an English nation in North America that English became the world language it is today. Both France and Spain were trying to colonize North America, but it was Raleigh\u2019s inspiration that led to the first English-speaking communities in the New World.\nThe poet and dramatist William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616) had an enormous effect on the English language. His country background combined with his education (he studied in Latin, and had also picked up French and Italian) meant he was able to appeal to all sections of Elizabethan society through the interplay of high speech with commonplace language.\nShakespeare had one of the largest vocabularies of any English writer, some 30,000 words (today an educated person\u2019s vocabulary is probably about 15,000 words), and there are many words and expressions used today which first appeared in Shakespeare\u2019s works. Examples are accommodation, assassination, vanish into thin air and lost property.\nThe House of Hanover\nWhen Queen Anne died in 1714 with no surviving children, her German protestant second cousin George was invited to be King of England instead of her Catholic half-brother James. George I spoke very little English, and during his twelve-year reign he spent more time in Hanover than he did in England.\nIn 1746 Dr Samuel Johnson began the nine-year task of writing a dictionary of the English language. He wrote the definitions of more than 40,000 words, and in 1755 the Dictionary was published. It was instantly recognized as a major work throughout Europe, and was not seriously rivalled for over a century.\nDuring the 19th century the British Empire ensured the spread of English around the globe, and the language also absorbed words from the countries it invaded. Tobacco from the West Indies, safari and zebra from Africa, kangaroo from Australia, ginger, shampoo and bungalow from India are just a few examples.\nPeople have been calling for spelling reform in English since the 16th century when John Hart complained of the \u2018vices\u2019 of English writing which cause it to be \u2018learned hard and evil to read.\u2019 In 1949 the Simplified Spelling Society\u2019s publication New Spelling was presented to Parliament, but was rejected, but only by 87 votes to 84!\nThose in favour of spelling reform argue that it would improve literacy levels, make the language easier to master, and save money, since any reform would reduce the number of letters per word. The main obstacle to reform is that there are so many varieties of pronunciation in different locations that it would be very difficult to agree on new spellings.\nIn the 20th century the biggest influence on the English language has been the emergence of the United States of America as a superpower after WW2. The enormous strategic, economic and cultural interests of the US has ensured the English language\u2019s survival, and it continues to dominate global communication.\nMany people argue that English has already become a world language. Mother-tongue speakers have now reached around 400 million, and a further 350 million use English as a second language. English is the main language of books, newspapers, airports and air traffic control, international business and academic conferences, science, technology, medicine, diplomacy, sports, international competitions, pop music and advertising. Three-quarters of the world\u2019s mail is written in English, 80% of information stored on computers around the world is in English, and people communicate on the internet largely in English.",

        "raw_content": "I had a wonderful weekend of Celebrating Women, Celebrating Successes and Celebrating Hope. On Saturday, I was able to attend the National Women's Show at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Marliese and I used to go to this event every year when we were a bit younger, but it had been a few years since we'd been.\nSo we rounded the troupes: Marliese and I, my sis, mom, and two aunts and headed downtown for a day filled of laughs, samples and bonding. It's dubbed the Ultimate Girls' Day out, and boy, it certainly was.\nWhen we got to MTCC at 9:45 a.m., there were probably 1,00,000,000 women in line. It was definitely EstrogenFest 2010. And inside, it was just as crazy - lines galore - and everyone looking for the greatest deal or the best freebie in the joint.\nOf course, we stocked up on some obligatory jewellery from some of the vendors, and had a few yogurt and chip samples along the way. What's still amazing to me, is how so many women want to change themselves. Between the botox treatment, the lipo offers, the face creams, the diet pills, the anti-aging supplements, the hair straighteners, it's a wonder you can still sift through and find the bootcamps and the natural healing and the health food stores. Luckily, there does seem to be a push towards the organic/holistic products, and there was a lot of that at the show. I also came across two bootcamps that I'm most interested in trying: FitChicks and BootyCampFitness. Both offer classes nearby. Perhaps a New Year's Resolution???\nSaturday night, I was fortunate to head to the Leafs Game. It was also the evening that celebrates the newest inductees to the Hockey Hall of Fame. This year, and for the first time ever, two women were inducted: Angela James and Cammie Granato. Women have been playing hockey for years, and it's about time they were recognized to the same degree as their male counterparts. The Leafs lost in a heartbreaker against the Buffalo Sabres, ah well.\nCanadian Flag floats through the crowd at the ACC\nSunday was another fabulous day for me. I was honoured to be involved in the 22nd annual Celebration of Hope Luncheon in partnership with the Markham Stouffville Hospital Foundation. More than 1,000 people attended the affair, which was hosted by CHFI's Erin Davis and MSH's own Allan Bell. This year, all the proceeds from the event went directly to the Markham Stouffville Hospital's Breast Health Centre and the new Cancer Centre.\nI was also honoured, this year, to wear a dress by Canadian designer, Franco Mirabelli. It was a simple black dress, with some cutouts in the back. I was pleasantly surprised that his clothes actually fit my frame! He and his wife are two of the nicest people and I can't wait to wear some of his designs again.\nThanks for checking us out at the Women's Show! Loved working with you & the Daytime York Region team a few months back on the segment!\nWould love to have you attend a Booty Camp session - we're one of the original women's-only boot camps and offer a ton of bonuses that no other boot camp has including:\n- 2 disc DVD complete w/ 8 workouts (shot in Hawaii so it's GORGEOUS)\n- our Ultimate Girl's Guide with fitness, nutritional & motivational info\n- recipe of the day ideas and a downloadable e-cookbook\nWill be sure to shoot you an email Julia :) Have a great day!\nBooty Camp Fitness",

        "raw_content": "Date: August 6, 2013 /Category: Blog, In The News, Lessons, PowerPoint Design, Rick Enrico Blog/Posted by: Rick Enrico\nReleased to huge acclaim from audiences and critics in 2011, The King\u2019s Speech details King George VI\u2019s struggle to overcome his stammer and fear of public speaking, and his relationship with his unconventional speech therapist Lionel Logue.\nWhile it\u2019s a very captivating movie, it also has a lot of practical application as a guide to public speaking, and there are many lessons to learn from the challenges King George VI overcame during his journey in becoming an effective public speaker.\nThe primary struggle of The King\u2019s Speech is King George VI\u2019s struggle to learn to trust his voice. Throughout the film, he learned to become comfortable in his own skin and accept his faults, which translated to overcoming his stutter.\nConfidence is imperative to giving an effective presentation, especially during an investor or interview presentation where instilling confidence in one\u2019s audience is a must. It\u2019s difficult to fake sincere confidence, which emanates throughout your presentation in a variety of ways, but if you can\u2019t find confidence in your ability to speak in public, a good substitute is to reassure yourself with confidence for what you\u2019re presenting.\nDuring the film, a primary reason \u201cBertie\u201d developed his stammer and fear of public speaking was because he got caught in a cycle of negative reinforcement, where previous public speaking failures caused him to lose confidence in himself, and resulted in him continuing to give poor speeches because of it. After a bad presentation, it\u2019s important to learn from your mistakes, then forget about the bad performance and move forward.\nRealize There is Room for Improvement\nChances are you\u2019re not the greatest presenter or public speaker on the planet. There is always room for improvement. However, for those who struggle with public speaking, the greater challenge isn\u2019t realizing you have a problem, but openly addressing it.\nWhether you seek to improve your public speaking privately, with a college course or elsewhere, the most important factor is that you are addressing the fact that public speaking is a challenge for you. Running and hiding from it will do nothing but make the problem worse.\nOne of my favorite moments in The King\u2019s Speech was the conversation between \u201cBertie\u201d and his speech therapist when he admitted he needed help:\n\u201cLionel Logue: What was your earliest memory?\nKing George VI: I\u2019m not\u2026 -here to discuss\u2026 -personal matters.\nLionel Logue: Why are you here then?\nKing George VI: Because I bloody well stammer!\u201d\nEvery great presenter, especially those whose skill appears to be effortless and relaxed, became great through practice and repetition.\nIn Malcolm Gladwell\u2019s popular book, \u201cOutliers,\u201d he presents the \u201c10-hour rule\u201d as the reason for success behind Bill Gates\u2019 wealth and business success and the enormous popularity of the Beatles. He theorizes that these two entities had approximately 10,000 hours of exposure to their craft, which is what made them become so legendary.\nPractice and experience produces success. Great presentations aren\u2019t improvised. If you want to \u201cwow\u201d an audience, you have to put in the work.\nRehearse your presentation until it\u2019s ingrained in your memory\u2013to the point of monotony. Orchestrate your talking points with your visual aid.\nCheck out \u2018The King\u2019s Speech\u2019 if you haven\u2019t seen it yet. It\u2019s a captivating film where you can find lessons ingrained within the challenges overcome by this tongue-tied monarch.",

If you are a first-time purchaser of fine jewelry, choosing a store can seem like a daunting task, especially if you don\u00e2t know much about diamonds, gemstones, or what to look for when purchasing fine jewelry. You want to buy the best jewellery you can, and you want to get your money\u00e2s worth.\nThe best jewelry store is more than just having a lot of pretty pieces of jewellery for sale. The best jewellery store is combination of a selection of fine jewelry, quality service, a knowledge and caring staff, and dedication to making a relationship with you, the buyer. A locally owned and operated jewelry company may be the best jewellery store for a first-time or even experienced jewellry buyer, because a locally-owned and operated company is part of the local community.\nMake looking for the best jewellery store easy by first looking at their website. Not only look to see if they sell something you want, but read about the company. If the company has specialists like certified gemologists on-site, then this is a sign that you have found a good jewellery store. If they offer services like jewellery repair, financing, diamond upgrades, custom designing and free ring sizing, then this is a sign that you have found a great jewellery store, because this shows that the store wants their customers to come back. If you want to find the best jewellery store, see if they offer all of these things and have a great selection of fine jewellery that you would like to buy. If the company also gives you a chance to learn about the owners and the people that work there, this is a sign that they are very invested in their reputation in the community and will provide the best service possible.\nThere are almost twenty Jewellery Stores in Saskatoon SK alone. For example, GMG Jewellers Saskatchewan has been family-owned and operated for over 30 years and is conveniently located in the middle of downtown Saskatoon. There are three on-site goldsmiths, and they offer a wide variety of fine jewellery, like designer engagement rings, and services like free diamond upgrades and financing. Choosing the best jewellery stores in Saskatchewan will take a little research, but it will be well worth it.\nConnect with Robert Stimpson",

They have gone through so much just to have their rights. They raised funds,sold war bonds,worked in factories,and served as nurses.\nWomen Rights Movement\nWomen had to endure so much pain and suffering during this time just because they couldn't have as many rights as men could. So some women came up with the woman's rights movement. This movement was a way to show that women had the power to anything.\nSome of the women in the Women's Right Movement\nJane Addams, social reformer and peace activist, led the American settlement house movement, founding its most famous settlement, Chicago\u2019s Hull House (1889). Addams was also a gifted lecturer and prolific writer. She founded and chaired the Woman\u2019s Peace Party (1915), was first president of the Women\u2019s International League for Peace and Freedom (1919), and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize (1931) for her years of peace activism.\nSusan B. Anthony was a champion of temperance, abolition and African American rights, the rights of labor, and equal pay for equal work, who devoted her life to organizing and leading the woman suffrage movement. A skilled political strategist, she was the General of the suffrage troops. Her strengths were discipline, energy, and organization and, after meeting Stanton in 1850, their partnership dominated the movement for over 50 years.\nElizabeth Cady Stanton, author, lecturer, and chief philosopher of the woman\u2019s rights movement, formulated the agenda for woman\u2019s rights that has guided the struggle to the present. She called the first Woman\u2019s Rights convention, with Lucretia Mott, at Seneca Falls, New York (1848), and wrote \u201cThe Declaration of Sentiments,\u201d calling for changes in law and society - educational, legal, political, social and economic - to elevate women\u2019s status, and demanding the right to vote. Her intellectual and organizational partnership with Susan B. Anthony dominated the woman\u2019s movement for over half a century.\nSummary About What Women Really Stand For\nWomen are a whole who stand up for one another as one and tend to remember what they all have been through. They all wanted to be treated fairly and have something to love and live for. They wanted to remembered in history as someone as who will hold down a nation and become the most loved. Not someone who will get judged all of their life and become unknown. Women need to be given a chance to do something once in a while.\nWomen's Suffrage in the 20th Century\nConnect with Jordan McCuien",

        "raw_content": "Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey\nMercedes-Benz Fashion Week officially starts tomorrow and rather than stressing myself out over all the details of outfit planning and show schedules, I am headed out for a day at the Six Flags theme park in New Jersey. I\u2019m pretty excited since I haven\u2019t been to an amusement park since last Halloween when JC and I flew down to Orlando for Universal Studios\u2019 Halloween Horror Nights. (Super fun!)\nSince it\u2019s almost the end of the season we were able to get a yearly pass for 2014 for only a few dollars more than the base entry fee (I think it was literally 3 dollars more to upgrade to a year pass). There was a special running that also included free parking for the entire year with our passes \u2013 a great deal!\nSome of the rides at Six Flags are certainly geared towards high adrenaline junkies like myself. Their newest coaster (as of writing this) is the Kingda Ka which is the world\u2019s tallest rollercoaster and the world\u2019s second fastest!\nAs an avid thrill ride goer, I was surprised at how scared I was to go on this coaster. I had my eyes closed almost the entire time and when the ride ended (only a few seconds later) I found myself almost involuntarily muttering under my breath \u201cnever again\u201d. A few minutes later, however, I was already wanting to go back on; it\u2019s definitely a thrilling ride, to say the least! It\u2019s hydraulic launch accelerates to 128 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds, which shoots riders on a near vertical accent to a height of 456 feet before vertically dropping back down a spiral track! Intense!!!\nA gondola ride connects opposite ends of the park for a relaxing ride and bird\u2019s eye view of the park.\nThe water rides are already closed for the season, but I was happy to see that they now have a drying machine! For 3 bucks, up to four people can dry off after getting soaked!\nPrevious ArticleFall Fashion: Printed Leggings and a Fedora\nNext ArticleNicholas K\u2019s Spring Summer 2014 Collection\nGastropub 66 Church in Naugatuck\nRainbows in Connecticut\nTrattoria Italiana, Puerto Rico",

        "raw_content": "The Fourth District originally affirmed the jury verdict, but following the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling in West Boca, the Fourth District vacated its previous decision. As an initial matter, the Fourth District noted that the comments are prejudicial because \u201cevidence concerning liability is irrelevant and prejudicial when . . . the defendant admits entire responsibility for the accident and only the amount of damages remains to be decided\u201d Metro. Dade Cnty. v. Cox, 453 So. 2d 1171, 1172-73 (Fla. 3d DCA 1984) (internal citations omitted). The court also noted Florida\u2019s long-standing rule that references to a party\u2019s wealth should not be made because of the possibly prejudicial effect. See, e.g., Sossa v. Newman, 647 So. 2d 1018, 1019-20 (Fla. 4th DCA 1994). The Fourth District acknowledged that this was a relatively minor car accident that should not generally command recovery for over a million dollars, especially considering the jury knew that many of the plaintiff\u2019s symptoms were preexisting and considering the judge\u2019s ruling with respect to the mental anguish claims. Accordingly, the Fourth District ruled that the plaintiff did not show that there was no reasonable possibility that the comments had an effect on the jury\u2019s verdict.\nAs the Fourth District\u2019s revised opinion indicates, the Supreme Court\u2019s clarification of the standard for harmless error will have a meaningful impact on appeals court determinations in evidentiary rulings moving forward. Indeed, the standard is broader, and many litigants will consequently have a better chance at getting a second bite at the apple. Although it will benefit certain plaintiffs, the standard will also be an advantage for many defendants seeking a reversal of plaintiff-friendly verdicts. Given the assortment of intricate evidentiary issues that can arise both at trial and on appeal, someone considering bringing a legal action for injuries should deeply consider finding competent counsel prior to filing his or her case.

        "raw_content": "Representatives for the decedents brought a wrongful death action against the landlord, arguing that management\u2019s negligence in maintaining the front gate, providing adequate security, preventing dangerous persons from gaining access to the premises and protecting and warning guests of dangerous conditions was a proximate cause of the deaths. During discovery, a boyfriend of one of the decedents testified he had been speaking to his girlfriend at 11 PM on the night of the murder and that the conversation ended when two identified people known to the decedent were at the door. The trial court eventually ruled that this statement was inadmissible hearsay. A criminologist also testified at trial, and asserted that most of the criminal activity at the community was opportunistic in nature. An expert enlisted by the defendant argued that the prior crimes were not of the nature that would naturally suggest the occurrence of these murders. A jury eventually found in favor of the plaintiffs, but the Fourth District Court of Appeal reversed, holding that by failing to proffer evidence of how the assailants gained access to the apartment, the plaintiff simply could not show causation between security and the murder. ERP, 96 So. 3d at 933. The Supreme Court of Florida, however, granted review.\nIn reversing the Fourth District\u2019s opinion, the Supreme Court of Florida started by noting the cavalcade of different criminal incidents that had occurred on the property in the three years prior to the murders. These incidents included the two mentioned above as well as another strong-armed robbery, a domestic violence forced entry, nine car thefts, an attempted car theft, and six burglaries. Next, the court noted the testimonial evidence proffered by the defendant\u2019s expert, which ultimately suggested that the gate may have not been serving it purposes given the frequency of criminal incidents, which the court concluded wasn\u2019t purely speculative. The Supreme Court found that this evidence collectively was enough to raise a fair inference that the landlord\u2019s breach may have contributed to what happened inside the apartment. The court noted that even had the decedents opened the door, this would be properly considered in assigning contributory negligence but not undercutting a reasonable inference that the landlord\u2019s act or omissions contributed to the incident. Since there was sufficient inference from which a reasonable jury could find that the landlord was at least possibly at fault, the court concluded it was error for the Fourth District Court of Appeal to hold that the motion for directed verdict should have been granted. Rather, there was a question of fact, which the jury should ultimately decide.\nIn recent years, the law surrounding negligent security has narrowed in many respects, but the Supreme Court\u2019s holding reaffirms that negligent security can be argued successfully and that certain claims can get to a jury. A jury may ultimately decide in the defendant\u2019s favor, but there is some satisfaction knowing that a group of peers made the call. Although your possible negligence case may not reach the Supreme Court of Florida, it is still useful to enlist experienced counsel to not only ensure you are ready should the situation arise but also to present the strongest possible case, so appellate resolution may not be necessary at all. The South Florida premises liability attorneys at Frankl & Kominsky are well-versed in Florida negligent security law and can provide the zealous representation your potential case may required.

        "raw_content": "Removal of persistently infected or inflamed tonsils or adenoids.\nQuestions about: Tonsillectomy and adenotonsillectomy for children\nWhen children have a cold or infection, they often get swollen tonsils and adenoids, which are lumps of tissue at the back of your throat.\nChildren who suffer from frequent bouts of infected or inflamed tonsils or adenoids often have them taken out. The operation to remove the tonsils is called a tonsillectomy, while taking out the adenoids is an adenoidectomy. An adenotonsillectomy removes both the adenoids and the tonsils.\nTonsils and adenoids are involved in fighting infection, but are not essential to your child's health. Children who suffer from persistent infected or inflamed tonsils or adenoids often have them taken out.\nSwollen adenoids can worsen glue ear (a build up of sticky fluid in the ear, which stops the eardrum letting sound through properly).\nSometimes, surgeons may recommend that children have their adenoids taken out and have grommets (tiny plastic tubes shaped like cotton reels, which help people with glue ear to hear better) inserted at the same time. During your initial consultation with us, your surgeon will discuss with you and recommend the best type of treatment for your child.\nWe will invite you to bring your child for a pre-admission visit. You will meet some of the staff who will be looking after your child, and the visit will help them to feel more familiar with the hospital when they return for their actual admission.\nYour consultant will give you tailored advice to follow in the run up to your child's procedure. Once you\u2019ve booked a tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy, your child shouldn\u2019t eat or drink anything from midnight on the day of the operation.\nIf your child has a cold or infection in the week before the operation, please phone the hospital. The operation may need to be postponed until your child has fully recovered.\nWe understand that having surgery can potentially be a time of anxiety and worry for both parents and children. Our experienced and caring medical staff will be there for you and your child, holding their hand, every step of the way.\nThe operation is done under general anaesthesia, which means your child will be asleep throughout the procedure. It usually takes about half an hour. You will be able to accompany your child to the operating theatre and stay with them until they are asleep.\nOnce the anaesthesia has taken effect, your child\u2019s mouth will be held open so the surgeon can see into their throat. Specially adapted instruments are used to remove the adenoids and/or tonsils. The surgeon will stop any bleeding using dissolvable stitches and pressing a gauze pad on the adenoid area.\nAlternatively, diathermy may be used. Diathermy means using heated instruments to remove the tissue and seal the wounds. Initially, there had been some question over the safety of diathermy, because there is evidence that it increases the risk of bleeding after the operation. However, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) issued guidance in 2005 that said the technique was safe to use, provided normal arrangements are in place for consent, audit and clinical governance.\nYour child may be treated as a day-case, or may need to stay overnight in hospital. Familiar faces are crucial in ensuring children feel safe and comfortable, and we appreciate how worrying it can be for parents to be separated from their child, so we're always pleased to arrange for you to stay overnight in your child's room.\nAfter the procedure, your child will be taken from the operating theatre to a recovery room, where he or she will come round from the anaesthesia under close supervision.\nSpecific complications of a tonsillectomy are uncommon but can include bleeding that starts soon after the operation. A nurse will observe your child closely after the procedure for signs of bleeding. Your child will probably be advised to lie on their side so that any bleeding from the throat can be detected. If bleeding does occur, they may be taken back to the operating theatre for further treatment to stop the bleeding.\nYour child will be cared for by a registered sick children's nurse or a registered nurse with a child branch certificate. Your friends and family will be able to visit pretty much anytime you want \u2013 we have flexible visiting hours.\nYour consultant will provide you with advice about pain relief before your child is discharged. You can usually give your child paracetamol syrup or ibuprofen syrup, being sure to follow the instructions on the bottle. Giving them a dose half an hour before eating may make eating less uncomfortable.\nAfter a tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy, your child will have a sore throat and earache which may last for up to two weeks.\nYour child should stay at home for seven to 14 days after the operation and avoid people with colds, coughs or other infections. Complete recovery can take up to two weeks.\nEven after your child has left hospital, we\u2019re still looking after him or her every step of the way. After a tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy, we will provide you with all the appropriate medication, advice and follow-up support for your child.\nYour consultant will want to see your child after the treatment to see how he or she is doing. An appointment will be made before you leave the hospital to come back in for a check-up.\nOn rare occasions, complications following a tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy can occur. If your child experiences any of these symptoms - persistent or increasing bleeding, inability to drink normally, which can lead to dehydration and / or a high temperature or fever call us straight away. Bleeding can re-occur up to a week after the operation. This is called secondary haemorrhage and can be a result of infection.\nWe will talk to you about the possible risks and complications of having this procedure.",

        "title": "Driving | The thrilling pinnacle of equine sport | SportBusiness",
        "raw_content": "This article was produced in association with FEI\nIf Ben-Hur had gone professional, this is the sport he would have chosen. Driving, an equestrian discipline that involves directing horses and a carriage at breakneck speeds along tracks and round obstacles, is surely the modern-day version of Roman chariot racing. In this sport the adrenalin rises as much for the spectators as it does for the horses and the riders taking part.\n\u201cIt\u2019s an exciting, high-octane sport, and the crowds just love it,\u201d says Manuel Bandeira de Mello, driving director at the governing body for equestrian sport, the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Equestre Internationale (FEI). \u201cDrive to thrill, spectacular skill, ultimate horsepower, precision at speed\u2026 I would say this is an adrenaline-fueled sport that is unbelievably electrifying.\u201d\nCarriage driving has been practised by humans and horses ever since we first invented the wheel. But it wasn\u2019t until 1969 that the sport was properly regulated. That was by the Duke of Edinburgh [husband of the Queen of England], who has always been a great advocate of the sport. A year later the discipline came under the governance of the FEI.\nThere are many different rules and several different formats to the sport, depending on which competition is being staged. But, when it comes to FEI events, drivers sit on a carriage drawn by horses or ponies; either single, pairs or four in hand. Human and equine athletes then face three trials: dressage, marathon and obstacle driving.\nBandeira de Mello explains how the three different trials work: \u201cDriven dressage involves performing a sequence of compulsory figures within a 100-metre by 40-metre rectangle. The movements must be executed from memory. Five different judges mark the test, and the lowest score wins.\u201d\nNext is the marathon phase. \u201cThis is a spectacular time trial run over a course that includes natural hazards such as sharp turns, water and steep hills, and artificial ones such as labyrinths. The objective of marathon is to test the fitness, stamina and training of the horses, and the driving skill, judgment of pace, and general horsemanship of the driver and his team.\u201d The team are known as grooms. Bandeira de Mello explains that they have a similar role to members of a bobsleigh team. \u201cThey use their body weight to maintain the balance of the carriage and prevent it overturning. It\u2019s a really dynamic and very skilled job, and the grooms need to be really fit.\u201d\nFinally there is the cones phase. \u201cThis tests the fitness, obedience and suppleness of the horses after the marathon, as well as the skill and competence of the driver who must weave cleanly through a narrow track marked by cones with tennis balls balanced on top. If they knock a ball down they pick up five penalties. It\u2019s a real test of skill. The fastest team with the lowest number of penalties wins.\u201d\nThe 2017/2018 season saw seven legs staged in the World Cup \u2013 in Stuttgart, Stockholm, Budapest, Geneva, London, Mechelen and Leipzig \u2013 culminating in a thrilling final in Bordeaux which was won by Australian and four-time world champion Boyd Exell. \u201cThe atmosphere was electric,\u201d recalls Bandeira de Mello. So electric, in fact, that the horses had to wear ear plugs.\nWorld champion Exell stresses how important teamwork and camaraderie are to driving, both between the human athletes and with the equine ones. When a team of four horses are competing, the two at the front \u2013 known as leaders \u2013 provide the skill. \u201cThey have to be clever, bold, fast and sensitive.\u201d The two horses behind them \u2013 known as wheelers \u2013 provide the power. \u201cThey are the V8 engines,\u201d he says.\nExell says he gets the best results when his horses are happy. \u201cIt\u2019s like employing people,\u201d he explains. \u201cJust because they work hard doesn\u2019t mean they can\u2019t have fun doing it. In a competition, when the chips are down, and it\u2019s really heavy going, they\u2019ll dig deep and go that extra mile for you.\u201d\nThis special connection between horse and driver should not be underestimated. \u201cGrooms who work with the animal have a connection when they\u2019re handling them,\u201d Exell explains. \u201cAnd I have a connection when I\u2019m training with them. So I can feel a trust with my horses. I can feel down the rein if they\u2019re feeling stiff, or if they\u2019re expressive and wanting to show off.\u201d\nIn four-in-hand driving events there are three humans in the team: the driver, the navigator and the backstep. Exell uses the analogy of motor racing. The driver is of course the person behind the wheel, while the navigator is like a co-driver in rally driving. The backstep is more like the person who occupies the sidecar in motorcycle racing. \u201cHe\u2019s got to keep the carriage upright,\u201d Exell explains. \u201cHe needs a bit of weight to stop it flipping over. It\u2019s called self-preservation. Otherwise you\u2019ll all end up on the deck. With four horses, when they hit their rhythm, it\u2019s like being thrown around like a rag doll. You get flung around everywhere.\u201d\nThe elite level of this sport is staged at the FEI World Equestrian Games\u2122 [the FEI\u2019s flagship event and biggest equestrian gathering in the calendar, which takes place every four years] and at the FEI World Championships, and the various continental championships in between. During the northern hemisphere summer, drivers compete in outdoor events for the chance to qualify for the prestigious FEI World Cup\u2122 Driving competition over the winter.\nThe number of participants in driving is growing. According to FEI research, there are nearly 2,900 registered driving horses worldwide, a 50-per-cent increase since 2007. Driving these horses, there are over 1,000 registered equestrians, a 17-per-cent increase since 2007. There are now over 300 driving events every year around the world, with USA, France, Austria, Germany, Netherlands and Australia staging the most.\nIn terms of results, the most successful nations are the Netherlands, Germany, France, Belgium, Switzerland and the USA. Thanks to the efforts of Exell, Australia is always well represented, too.\nBandeira de Mello explains what makes driving such a dynamic spectator sport. \u201cIt\u2019s all about speed and control and the fact that the driver does all this from several metres behind the horses. It\u2019s something very special that the public loves.\u201d\nHe says the connection between drivers and horses adds a certain mystique to the sport. \u201cThe public doesn\u2019t know exactly how it works or it\u2019s done. That is the mystery they love to see. How can a driver not seated on the horse control such high speeds and turns in such a small space? This keeps spectators entertained all the way through the competition.\u201d\nThis entertainment has been attracting more and more spectators to the sport in recent years. According to the FEI\u2019s market research study, there are currently 302 million fans across 15 different territories, 52 per cent of them male, 48 per cent female. Seventy per cent have middle or high income levels, and 46 per cent are aged between 30 and 49.\n\u201cDriving has a fantastic fan base,\u201d Bandeira de Mello says. \u201cI would say, in some ways, it\u2019s the perfect vehicle for sponsors, with huge on-site public support, wonderful stories for social media, and great TV audiences \u2013 exemplified by the FEI World Cup\u2122 Driving Final in Bordeaux. The music was pumping at full volume, and the spectators were cheering and stamping their feet.\u201d\nHe also cites last year\u2019s Longines FEI European Championships for Driving [four-in-hand], in the Swedish city of Gothenburg, as a great example of what the sport can offer. On the day of the marathon phase, there were over 50,000 spectators, not only swarming the city streets and Slottsskogen park, but also packed into the stadium in the city centre.\nThat\u2019s surely a sign of just how popular driving has become.\nEndurance | The ultimate challenge\nLong, testing rides through beautiful countryside, with hundreds of horses and athletes competing\u2026 No wonder endurance riding is growing in popularity for both competitors and fans all around the world.\nThe equestrian discipline of vaulting sees athletes performing gymnastic dance routines on the back of a cantering horse. For both fans and competitors, it\u2019s an intriguing combination of athleticism and artistic flair.",

        "raw_content": "Council member Heidi Wilder at first proposed that the wording of that exception be changed so it was clearer - avoiding loopholes - but the council then decided to do away with that exception since even with the ventilation, the smoke could still permeate a restaurant.\nRobinson pointed out that restaurant owners likely would not suffer from the ban, which Police Chief Mike Manning confirmed could be enforced successfully as long as compliance and not writing tickets would be the goal, since an officer might not arrive in time to catch someone disobeying the ban.\nSeveral residents took the meeting as an opportunity to speak their opinion on the new ordinance, but most of those who spoke in opposition did so because the ban includes e-cigarettes.\nLifetime Weatherford resident Allen Warren said he smoked cigarettes for 30 years, but because of e-cigarettes he was finally able to stop after his other attempts failed. He proposed that the council table the ordinance and adjust it so e-cigarettes could still be used since they have helped people who could not break the addiction otherwise.\n\u201cI\u2019m actually in favor of banning cigarettes in restaurants,\u201d Warren said. \u201cBut I can\u2019t for the life of me understand why you would ban e-cigarettes.\u201d\nCharles Bitters and his wife own a shop in Weatherford where e-cigarettes are sold and said their goal is to help others wanting to improve their health by quitting smoking, pointing out that the e-cigarettes\u2019 ingredients are not dangerous.\n\u201cThere\u2019s so much difference between e-cigarettes and smoking tobacco products,\u201d Bitters said. \u201cThere\u2019s lots of misinformation out there on e-cigarettes.\u201d\nWhile the e-cigarettes have some tobacco, they are closely regulated by the FDA, Bitters said.\nAt the Jan. 14, meeting, Stephanie Davenport, a program director of Tarrant County Challenge, Inc., a non-profit organization that promotes awareness of the consequences of substance abuse, suggested that the council include the ban of e-cigarettes since some people use it as a cover when they are in fact smoking dangerous or illegal substances.\n\u201cI understand there hasn\u2019t been a lot of evidence on e-cigarettes,\u201d Wilder said.\nWilder also said it would add more responsibility on the owners if they had to determine whether someone was smoking an e-cigarette or a regular cigarette. Until more evidence is gathered, e-cigarettes will remain banned according to the new ordinance.\nRepresentatives from the American Cancer Society and American Heart Association suggested the city consider banning smoking in any work place. A representative from the Texas Health Care Hospitals, Azle, offered resources and assistance to those with smoke-free businesses.",

Check out this story on stargazette.com: https://stargaz.tt/2yW90B8\nJeff Murray, Elmira Star-Gazette Published 6:00 a.m. ET June 29, 2018\nMembers of the Chemung Valley Railway Historical Society show off a restored 1928 Erie Railroad boxcar at Elmira's Eldridge Park.(Photo11: PROVIDED PHOTO)\nWhen residents show up at Elmira's Eldridge Park on Saturday for an early 4th of July celebration and fireworks display, the Chemung Valley Railway Historical Society hopes people also check out the group's pet project.\nIn 2006, Norfolk Southern Railroad donated a 1928 Erie Railroad boxcar to the society. The car at the time was a rusted out hulk, but society members since then have worked feverishly to restore it.\nNow, society members can't wait to show it off. More importantly, they are looking for a place they can set up a permanent railroad history display that includes that car and several others the group owns.\n\"The car has been a fixture at Eldridge Park for over a decade. Our goal is to create a full-size exhibit somewhere in the area,\" said society co-founder Rob Piecuch. \"Eldridge could be one place to do it. The parts are already there. We haven't been able to get anything in writing from the city. I\u2019ve been trying to get something for years. We proposed different ideas, but we've not able to get a final yea or nay on the whole project.\"\nRelated: RAIL SERVICE? April Fool's joke turns serious\nThe railway society didn't do much work on restoring the boxcar for a while due to uncertainty over its fate and the loss of some core members.\nBut in the last few years, a great deal of work has been accomplished, Piecuch said, and the car now looks like it just rolled out of the factory.\n\"It needed a lot of work. There were issues with metal corners that had rotted out,\" he said. \"The bulk of the work is done. It's more than three quarters done. There's a lot of little stuff, like holes that need to be patched. Our plan is, we\u2019ll have a display at the park next to the carousel building.\"\nThis is what a 1928 Erie Railroad box car looked like in 2006 when Norfolk Southern Railroad donated it to the Chemung Valley Railway Historical Society. (Photo11: PROVIDED PHOTO)\nThe City of Elmira isn't opposed to the society locating a public railroad history display on city property, according to Mayor Dan Mandell.\nCity officials have just been busy with pressing issues such as budget deficits and taxes, said Mandell, who added he's open to the idea of such an exhibit.\n\"I\u2019m definitely not opposed to it. I want a meeting...to see if that\u2019s feasible to do,\" Mandell said. \"I think it would be a nice attraction for Eldridge Park. With everything going on, this is important, but we have to prioritize too. We need to talk about that. It's not a bad idea. I don\u2019t see why we couldn\u2019t do that.\"\nThe Eldridge Park celebration will take place from 3 to 11 p.m. Saturday. Piecuch hopes people who stop to check out the restored rail car will also consider joining the society, whether they are big on trains or not.\n\"It's very important to gain members. We lost a number of people in the last few years,\" he said. \"It doesn\u2019t have to be a train thing. It's just if you like history, and like restoring things.\"\nTo learn more about the Chemung Valley Railway Historical Society, contact Rob Piecuch at 607-857-4124 or by email at latemorning88@gmail.com.

        "title": "U.S. Sanctions On Russian Sovereign Debt: Coming Soon or Already Here? | International Compliance Blog",
        "raw_content": "Home > Russia/Ukraine Sanctions > U.S. Sanctions On Russian Sovereign Debt: Coming Soon or Already Here?\nThere has been a lot of chatter over the past few weeks about Russian companies loading up on debt in anticipation of increased sanctions, and even the Russian government planning a bond issuance in Chinese Yuan for the first time out of concern that western investors may be shut out of the sovereign debt market as a result of sanctions. U.S. sanctions targeting the debt of certain Russian companies are well-known and have been in place since 2014. But what is underlying this renewed concern about Russian sovereign debt?\nTo put this into context, this is not the first time that sanctions concerns about Russian sovereign debt have arisen. Last year, US and EU authorities warned banks not to participate in a Russian sovereign Eurobond offering, with the reported rationale being that the proceeds may be diverted to sanctioned state-owned enterprises. (There were, at the time, no sanctions in place targeting Russian sovereign debt per se.) That sovereign Eurobond offering ultimately succeeded, and was followed by additional issuances this year, after record performances by Russian bonds and a growing share of foreign participants in that market.\nWhile investor interest generally remains solid, in the last several weeks there has been a drumbeat of longer-term warning signals about the impact sanctions may have on the Russian sovereign debt market. Many investors are starting to ask whether they should be looking for an exit sooner rather than later. This got to the point in mid-November that the Governor of Russia\u2019s central bank had to issue a statement that there would only be a \u201cshort-term spike\u201d in rates if expected U.S. sanctions were to materialize, followed by a sustained increase in rates of around 30-40 basis points. Many investors would find that to be hardly reassuring. Yields had already increased by 20 basis points in the preceding month, as this speculation grew.\nSo what is behind all of these financial market jitters? First, to be clear, U.S. law does not prohibit involvement in the issuance or trading of Russian sovereign debt. But there are legal risks that market participants are seemingly only beginning to come to terms with. On October 31, 2017, the U.S. Treasury Department\u2019s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) explaining that \u201cpurchases of debt securities issued by the Government of Russia\u201d would constitute an \u201cinvestment\u201d within the meaning of Section 233 of the Countering America\u2019s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA), on which we previously advised. (See also our broader discussion of the related guidance that has been issued under CAATSA.) Exactly what that means is not clear, but this is certainly something for market participants to watch closely.\nSection 233 of CAATSA requires the president to impose sanctions on any person that, on or after August 2, 2017, \u201cknowingly . . . makes an investment of $10,000,000 or more (or any combination of investments of not less than $1,000,000 each, which in the aggregate equals or exceeds $10,000,000 in any 12-month period), or facilitates such an investment, if the investment directly and significantly contributes to the ability of the Russian Federation to privatize state-owned assets in a manner that unjustly benefits\u2014(1) officials of the Government of the Russian Federation; or (2) close associates or family members of those officials.\u201d OFAC clarified in the FAQ that buying Russian sovereign debt can constitute a sanctionable investment if it otherwise falls within Section 233, i.e., if it meets the $10 million monetary threshold, involves the sale of rights from the state, and \u201cunjustly benefits\u201d someone linked to a Russian official.\nSome observers have minimized the importance of Section 233 due to the \u201cunjustly benefits\u201d element. However, they may want to take a look at some of the U.S. Government\u2019s recent statements about corruption in Russia. For example, the U.S. State Department\u2019s Investment Climate Statement for 2017 on Russia reports that \u201cRussian officials often engaged in corrupt practices with impunity.\u201d It states that even statistics taken from the Russian authorities reveal a remarkably pervasive level of corruption, including in the allocation of government funds, which presumably would implicate the sovereign debt market. For example, the report states that there were nearly 33,000 crimes registered in 2016 by Russian law enforcement agencies involving bribery, kickbacks in government procurement, embezzlement, and incorrect obligation of federal and local budget funds. Such reports would likely color how the U.S. Government views purchases of Russian sovereign debt and could certainly give rise to a risk that it would treat funding the Russian government by participating in this market as \u201cunjustly\u201d benefitting Russian officials or their associates. As Section 233 only provides for \u201csecondary sanctions,\u201d no real proof is required, and the targets have limited legal recourse.\nThere are significant doubts about whether Section 233 really applies in this context. The FAQ cited above is itself quite unclear. It suggests that a purchase of Russian sovereign debt would constitute a potentially sanctionable \u201cinvestment\u201d if it constitutes \u201ca loan or other extension of credit to an enterprise.\u201d Of course, purchasing debt from a sovereign is not normally an extension of credit to an enterprise, so it would be useful for OFAC to clarify publicly what it means by this. Still, this FAQ creates some real doubt about whether the Russian sovereign bond market is currently a sanctions target.\nBut the real game-changer for this market is expected to be Section 242 of CAATSA, which requires the Treasury Department to issue a report by February 2018 \u201cdescribing in detail the potential effects\u201d of expanding existing U.S. sanctions prohibiting transactions or dealings by U.S. persons in \u201cnew debt\u201d of longer than 14 days maturity of sanctioned Russian financial institutions \u201cto include sovereign debt and the full range of derivative products.\u201d The fear \u2013 not at all unfounded \u2013 is that this report could lead to the imposition of U.S. legal prohibitions on any and all dealings in Russian sovereign debt. Maybe the debt-devouring we have seen by Russian corporates and government over the last several months is starting to look more understandable after all.",

        "raw_content": "'Bumping' in redundancies \u2013 the \u2018cut-throat\u2019 defence\nSome of you may already be familiar with the concept of \u2018bumping\u2019. It sounds innocuous enough, yet the strategy is sufficiently ruthless that relatively few employees choose to adopt it.\nIn simple terms, if \u2018Andy\u2019s\u2019 role is threatened with redundancy, he can point to another role within the business performed by \u2018Susan\u2019 and argue that he ought to be given Susan\u2019s role. The upshot is that Susan may find that she is \u2018bumped\u2019 out of her employment instead of Andy!\nIt\u2019s fair to say that Andy is unlikely to make himself hugely popular by utilising this tactic. However, the recent case of Mirab v Mentor Graphics (UK) Ltd considered the question of whether an employer is only obliged to consider \u2018bumping\u2019 if the employee actively raises it.\nMr Mirab was a sales director within an international business. Despite enjoying a relatively successful career with Mentor Graphics, in the early part of 2016, he was informed that he was being placed at risk of redundancy. In the absence of any vacancies for which he would be suitable, Mr Mirab was dismissed by reason of redundancy. He felt that he had been unfairly targeted and brought a claim of unfair dismissal.\nAs part of his Employment Tribunal claim, Mr Mirab argued that Mentor Graphics should have considered the prospect of transferring him into a more junior \u2018account manager\u2019 role, bumping out one of the existing account managers instead. This was not something that Mr Mirab had raised during the redundancy consultation process itself.\nWhen the case came before the Employment Tribunal, the panel concluded that the employee had been fairly dismissed by reason of redundancy. In particular, the ET ruled that the employer would only have been obliged to consider \u2018bumping\u2019 if the employee had raised the issue himself. The employee was still dissatisfied with this decision and appealed to the Employment Appeal Tribunal.\nThe EAT found in Mr Mirab\u2019s favour, concluding that there is no strict rule about whether the employee needs to raise the prospect of \u2018bumping\u2019 for the employer to be obliged to consider it. Instead, the question is whether the company\u2019s decisions fall within the range of reasonable responses open to an employer.\nAdmittedly, it will rarely be the case that employers will want to raise the prospect of \u2018bumping\u2019 without the employee having raised it first. After all, it tends to increase the complexity of the situation and drag other employees into the mix. By the same token, this case confirms that employers cannot assume that they can simply ignore the issue, just because the employee hasn\u2019t mentioned it. Instead, where circumstances make it reasonable to do so, employers should consider proactively raising the prospect of \u2018bumping\u2019 one employee out in order to save another.\nIf you are planning a redundancy or restructuring process and would like to discuss these issues in more detail, please get in touch.",

        "raw_content": "Colocation is a data center in which bandwidth, space and equipments are available for leasing to other company\u2019s website. Through colocation, a company can rent its server network, space, power and storage to other companies.\nCompanies who have fewer IT requirements, colocation is perhaps the best solution for them as it provides better security, low cost, and technical support. For managing a data center, you would require space, requisite power, and cooling. Managing such I.T infrastructure requirements could get costly. To manage all these, UPS, generators and HVAC units are required. But with the help of colocation, one can reduce the cost of managing these types of equipments. One can share these types of equipments and facilities with the help of colocation. The biggest benefit of colocation is reduced bandwidth cost since it provides a company with same price server in a colocation facility. Due to this, the speed of the bandwidth gets higher and better space for the network connections. If you have full access to the dedicated network, then these cost savings can be improved for the benefit of the stakeholders.\nColocation facilities provide better power protection as well. For instance, due to thunderstorm, if power line gets disconnected, and there is no power for many days, colocation facilities would be of great help. Having generators cannot run servers for long time, then websites get down due to no power backup. But in colocation, one has to pay for generator power or power backup which protects the website from the situation if no power is there.\nIf server machine becomes slow, and does not have memory, one can upgrade the server. One can upgrade disk space or RAM, to get fast access to the server. In colocation, one can download the software by themselves without any help. Even one can increase or decrease the bandwidth limit with colocation.\nColocation provides 24*7 technical support service. In colocation, no one can access your data without a high level of verification. It comes with high security feature which can secure data and equipment. Server colocation in Mumbai is secure and flexible in which user can customized its bandwidth speed, disk space, RAM etc. Colocation server in Mumbai provides free maintenance service if you don\u2019t have I.T support team. Even one can change the software or hardware of their server if company requires. There is no limit to upgrade the data center of your business. It maintains environmental factors like maintenance of temperature and humidity.\nA fast growing company always need a server. Let\u2019s take the example of an online shopping site. Online business is growing day by day. Millions of people visit such websites on regular basis. Due to increased traffic, websites tend to go slow. Even these sites have to upload new products on a daily basis for which they require a large space for storage. Slow uploading will affect the in traffic on the websites. In such case, colocation is very important as one can change its need according to its requirement. With the help of colocation, web hosting provides better services to its customers. This will help them to bring more traffic and hence improve business outcomes. Colocation is best for web hosting where the user can upgrade or manage its server resources.",

        "title": "Rorschach, Walter Joseph Kovacs | History | Superhero Database",
        "raw_content": "Rorschach (pronounced Roar-shack) is the vigilante name of Walter Joseph Kovacs; he was born March 21, 1940. His mother, a prostitute who resented his interference in her business, abused him viciously. His father never knew his son and nothing is known about him other then he liked President Truman and his name was \"Charlie\". At age 10, Walter attacked two bullies that had cruelly abused him, partially blinding one with the bully's own lit cigarette. Kovacs became a ward of the state and was sent to the Lillian Charlton Home for Problem Children. In high school, he excelled in religious education and literature, as well as in boxing and gymnastics. He also wrote an essay in which he praised President Truman's decision to use nuclear weapons against the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, asserting that the bombs helped save lives by stopping the war.\nDuring those high school years, at age 16, Walter was informed of his mother's gruesome murder; her pimp force-fed her a bottle of Drano until she died in agony. Walter's reaction consisted of only a single word: \"Good.\"\nAt about the same time, he found work as an unskilled garment worker; noting later to a prison psychiatrist \"Job bearable but unpleasant. Had to handle female clothing\". Working in this capacity, in 1962 he grew fascinated by a new fabric made possible through technologies developed by Doctor Manhattan. Two viscous liquids, one black and one white, between two layers of latex, continually shifted in response to heat and pressure, forming symmetrical patterns like a Rorschach inkblot test while never mixing to produce a grey colour. Kovacs learned of the fabric when a young woman chose not to buy a dress which she had ordered made from it; subsequently Kovacs took the dress home and experimented with the fabric. He learned to cut the fabric and maintain the seal using heated scissors.\nThe real life 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese (in front of a building full of tenants who didn't bother to help her) was made part of the Watchmen universe backstory, providing a trigger for Kovacs's decision to avenge the powerless victims of crime. He decided that Genovese had been the woman who had ordered the dress (\"Young. Pretty. Italian name. I'm sure it was her\"), cut up the dress, and made it into a mask -- becoming Rorschach (taking his name from the test).\nEventually, in 1965 he teamed up with another superhero, the second Nite Owl, whose technical skills and resources complemented Kovacs' skills as an investigator.\nIn 1975, Rorschach was searching for a kidnapped child and found her captor's vacant hideout. A cursory inspection revealed, to his horror, that the girl had been murdered, butchered, and fed to two German Shepherd dogs. In the face of this atrocity, Kovacs' mind snapped and assumed the mental identity of Rorschach as a separate personality. He killed the dogs with a meat cleaver and waited for the kidnapper. Kovacs later mentioned, \"shock of impact ran along my arm. It was Kovacs who said 'mother' then, muffled under Latex. It was Kovacs who closed his eyes. It was Rorschach who opened them again.\" When the man returned, he wordlessly chained him to a pipe, ignoring his claims of innocence (the man telling Rorschach: \"Y-you can't prove anything. I mean, wh-where's the evidence\", suggesting that he fed the girl to the dogs to get rid of the 'evidence'), then placed a hacksaw near him and set the house on fire. Finally speaking, he told the terrified man that he would not have time to cut through his restraints before the fire killed him (implying that he would have to sever his own arm to escape). Kovacs calmly watched the structure burn from across the street; the suspected kidnapper did not emerge. In an interview ten years later with psychologist Malcolm Long, Kovacs explicitly mentioned the incident as the point after which he became \"Rorschach, who sometimes pretends to be Kovacs\"; before that, he claims, he was only \"Kovacs pretending to be Rorschach.\" He no longer refers to his \"mask\"; now he only calls the mask his \"face\".\nAfter the 1977 Keene Act outlawed costumed vigilantes, demanding his retirement, he grew even more violent, murdering notorious multiple rapist Harvey Charles Furniss and leaving his corpse in front of a police station; a note pinned to his chest read, \"Never!\" True to his word, Rorschach remained an active \"adventurer\" in open defiance of the law.\nRorschach lives in a slum run by a landlady who has had multiple children by multiple fathers; he pointedly comments on his belief that she cheats on welfare. It is never mentioned whether he continued to work in the garment trade or found some other source of income. During the day, he walks around New York as a vagrant with a sign reading \"The end is nigh.\"\nDuring a mid-1980s murder investigation of a man named Eddie Blake, Rorschach discovered that the victim was the alter ego of the Comedian an amoral government-sponsored \"costumed adventurer\" and former colleague whom he seemed to admire. Suspecting a plot to eliminate superheroes, he pursued the investigation accordingly, interviewing and warning several former members of the hero community. Although no one took his theory seriously, the sudden public denunciations and subsequent self-exile of Doctor Manhattan and the attempted murder of Adrian Veidt (the former Ozymandias) bolstered his confidence that he was on the right track. Before long, however, he was framed for the murder of Moloch, an ailing former adversary, and was captured by the police. During the take down, Rorschach fought the heavily armed officers with improvised methods using ordinary household materials, with surprising effectiveness, but he was knocked unconscious as he fought to escape.\nIn prison, Kovacs was examined by a clinical psychologist, and subject to numerous death threats and attacks by vengeful prisoners. When taunted by inmates about being trapped inside with them, his only reply was to say that they had it backwards; they were, in fact, trapped with him. He prevented an attempt on his life in the prison cafeteria by calmly and wordlessly grabbing a pot full of boiling cooking grease and hurling it into the assailant's face. The psychiatrist later described the resultant burns on the attacker as \"horrific.\" A former organized crime head called The Big Figure orchestrated a prisoner riot as a distraction while his flunkies attacked Kovacs. He easily, almost leisurely, dispatched the would-be assassins before he escaped his cell to pursue and drown The Big Figure (a diminutive old man) in a prison restroom. During this battle, the current Nite Owl and Silk Spectre were attempting to break him out of prison, and used the chaos of the prison riot to do so. They sought his help in their own investigation into the murders of the former superheroes.\nInvestigating jointly, Nite Owl and Rorschach learned that the mastermind behind the plot was Adrian Veidt, who had been hailed as the smartest person in the world. Rorschach and Nite Owl traveled to his home in Antarctica to confront him; however, they were unable to prevent him from accomplishing his ultimate goal. Before the duo arrived, Veidt teleported an enormous Lovecraftian \"alien\" that he had manufactured into the heart of New York City, killing millions and psychically traumatizing millions more. Exactly as Veidt had predicted, the hoax forced the nations of the world to halt their mounting hostilities towards one another and unite against the perceived alien threat, thereby preventing the inevitable nuclear showdown.\nShortly after Veidt confessed his plot to Nite Owl and Rorschach, they were joined by Doctor Manhattan and the Silk Spectre, having just returned from Mars. After a brief struggle, the adventurers realized that by exposing Veidt's act they would only manage to return the world to the brink of nuclear catastrophe. The other heroes agreed that they must keep the hoax a secret, but Rorschach flatly refused to comply (\" Never compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon. That's the difference between us, Daniel.\"). Manhattan told Rorschach that he \"cannot allow\" him to reveal the truth to the world, but Rorschach maintained his defiance. Enraged and in tears, Walter Kovacs removed his mask and demanded that Manhattan kill him if that is what it took to protect Veidt's utopia. Although reluctant and showing emotions again, Manhattan silently complied with Kovacs' request.\nHowever, Rorschach's legacy may have had greater consequences; prior to departing for Antarctica, he wrote a lengthy journal detailing his investigation and sent it to a reactionary right-wing newspaper The New Frontiersman. While Veidt was confident Kovacs would not be believed by the public, since his mental illness was well known, the question of whether the journal's contents would be printed and his evidence seriously examined was left open ended in the very last panel of the Watchmen comics series.",

        "raw_content": "Since 2014, when the decline in reach of organic social content first began, and subsequent algorithm changes occurred, marketers and brands have increasingly turned towards paid social to reach users online. With limited space and more users joining social platforms every day, many marketers are competing for the attention of the same target audience on the same platforms, resulting in increased costs, and at times, campaigns that don\u2019t quite get off the ground.\nPaid Social Evolution\nSpending on social ads has certainly evolved since the initial organic decline four years ago, with a 185% increase, and it\u2019s projected to grow another 57% by 2020. At the same time, social media advertising revenue is forecast at a staggering $51.3 billion USD for 2018, and ad revenue is set to grow 10.5% annually. To meet marketers\u2019 needs, unsurprisingly, social media advertising budgets are expected to almost double by 2023. This steady and fast growth is one of the many reasons why marketers\u2019 and brands\u2019 paid social is a vital part of any social and digital strategy.\nHow are marketers leveraging paid social to overcome declining organic reach, increasing costs, and competition for limited space and consumer attention? They\u2019re reexamining targeting in comparison with the competition, refining and testing visuals and messaging, and most importantly, building a realistic strategy that\u2019s on par with the business\u2019 end goals\u2014be it clicks and conversions, or acquiring new users.\nAnd while it sounds as if the costs outweigh the benefits, the truth is that social ads are still relevant, and according to the Adobe Digital Insights 2018 State of Digital Advertising Report, social media ads drove three times more non-customers than existing customers to retailer websites as of the end of 2017. This means that people are not just looking at social ads, but they\u2019re clicking on them more than ever before.\nWith 2018 coming to a close, and marketers planning their ad strategies and budgets for the New Year, what can we expect in 2019, and where should we focus our efforts in order to be successful?\nBy 2019, 80% of what we consume online will be video content. Video content, including live video is dominating social media and will continue to dominate in the coming year.\nIn order to cut through the noise from the competition, marketers should utilize the variety of new and emerging content platforms like Stories and live streaming, in addition to media like photo and video. In short, think visual before text; think engagements before followers. This trend has been making its shift since early 2014 and there is no denying that the social algorithms have officially prioritized relevancy and engagements as primary indicators of successful social content.\nAnother area for brands to further explore in 2019 is influencer marketing\u2014allowing brands direct access to an individual\u2019s engaged community through that person\u2019s trusted voice. With shorter attention spans and greater mobile use, it\u2019s key to create a truly interactive experience, where users engage with the brand, and others experience FOMO (fear of missing out) on the experience. And while \u201cinfluencer marketing\u201d still sounds like an overplayed marketing tactic, brands whom engage with influencers are reaping the results.\nUltimately, when it comes to developing a paid social media strategy, before even spending a penny\u2014determine what success looks like to your business or brand, set realistic and achievable goals, figure out who you want to reach and how, set your budget based on those goals, and of course, test everything along the way.",

The army units destroyed several large caches of arms and ammunitions that were used by the foreign-backed terrorists and Takfiri militants.\nIn the western city of Homs, some troops of the Syrian army attacked different buildings that were used by the terrorists as command headquarters.\nThe attacks of these terrorist headquarters were carried out by the Syrian units in the western city of Homs as well as in the south-western part of the city of Dara\u2019a, which is located in the north of the border with the US-proxy Jordan. The attacks ended with the result that several terrorists were either eliminated from Syrian soil or wounded.\nA so-called commander of the Syrian Al Qaeda branch, the \u201cal-Nusra Front\u201d, was killed in clashes between the jihadists and Islamists of the \u201cJabhat al-Nusra\u201d (al Nusra Front) and the foreign-backed terrorists and criminals of the so-called \u201cFree Syrian Army\u201d (FSA) in Barzeh \u2013 located near to the Syrian capital, Damascus.\nCitadel of Aleppo (Arabic: \u0642\u0644\u0639\u0629 \u062d\u0644\u0628\u200e)\nAs already stated in an article from today morning, the clashes and fighting near the strategically important town of Ras al-Ain (also Ras al-Ayn) are still continued. The Syrian town of Ras al-Ayn was recently seized by Kurdish fighters (see here). According to reports, more than 40 people have been killed since the beginning of the fights and clashes in the area of the flashpoint town Ras al-Ayn (Ras al-Ain).\nIt is to assume that the Turkish government (some say, the Erdogan regime in Turkey) supports the Syrian Al Qaeda offshoot in these fights in the region of Ras al-Ayn (Ras al-Ain) against the Kurdish fighters.\nal-Rashedin\nEU: The Arming of Terrorists in Syria is currently no Topic\nTurkish Army Attacked Kurdish Fighters on Syrian soil?",

        "raw_content": "West End, Gloucestershire, Northleach, England\nEngland\u2019s venerable coaching inns are the ancestors of today\u2019s pubs, and the Wheatsheaf Inn, in the Cotswolds town of Northleach, is as true as can be to the classic, slightly utopian ideal of a public house as a welcoming place for a drink, a delicious bite to eat, and an attractive, comfortable room for the night. And if that\u2019s a description the modern pub typically fails by some distance to live up to, well, so much the better for the Wheatsheaf.\nThen again it\u2019s not many pubs that offer treatments in a small spa located in the garden. Nor do most of them offer shooting or fishing outings, at least not officially sanctioned ones. And, more to the point, not many come with rooms that are quite so attractive. Each of the 14 bedrooms is different, all with Hypnos beds and Bang & Olufsen televisions, and all decorated in a subtle blend of contemporary town and traditional country. Some come with gorgeous copper tubs, though Americans should note that some lack showers \u2014 when in Rome\u2026.\nOf particular note, naturally, is the food. The Wheatsheaf\u2019s restaurant was here before the rooms, and its popularity drove the owners to expand into overnight hospitality in the first place. The atmosphere is one of casual elegance, and the crowd is stylish without intimidation \u2014 Kate Moss is something of a local talisman, and her portrait hangs in the dining room \u2014 and the food, a contemporary take on classic English country cooking, is more than capable of living up to its reputation.\nWith every room being unique and individual, please be aware that some rooms have only a shower or a bath and some have both. If you would like a room with a bath or shower, please make the reservation team aware of this at the time of booking. If you would like to guarantee a table for dinner and have not already done so, please contact us to make reservation, we do not guarantee tables to residents so making reservations is advised.\nNearby hotels with availability: View more hotels in Northleach:",

        "raw_content": "Breaking: Weiner to cop plea in sexting probe\nposted at 9:21 am on May 19, 2017 by Ed Morrissey\nThe man whose inner demons destroyed not one but possibly two political careers will have a new one: convict. The New York Times reports that former Congressman Anthony Weiner will plead guilty in federal court to a single count of transferring obscene material to a minor, a result of his sexting a 15-year-old girl in the United Kingdom. The charge brings an end to the case, and might put Weiner behind bars \u2026 or might not:\nAnthony D. Weiner, the former Democratic congressman whose \u201csexting\u201d scandals ended his political career and embroiled him in a tumultuous F.B.I. investigation of Hillary Clinton before the election, is to appear in a federal courtroom in Manhattan on Friday to enter a guilty plea.\nThe information has not been made public but was related by two people who have been briefed on the matter and asked not to be identified.\nMr. Weiner will plead guilty to a single charge of transferring obscene material to a minor, pursuant to a plea agreement with the United States attorney\u2019s office in Manhattan, one of the people said. Mr. Weiner surrendered to the F.B.I. early Friday morning.\nAccording to the statute (18 USC 1470), the charge could result in a prison term of as long as ten years, so this isn\u2019t just a little misdemeanor. It\u2019s the end of practically any remaining hope for Weiner to ever work in politics again. The judge will take his lack of prior conviction into account for sentencing, but may also take into account Weiner\u2019s strange compulsion in sexting \u2014 which not only ruined his marriage but his career, and arguably played a role in Hillary Clinton\u2019s loss last November. (Arguably.) It\u2019s possible that the judge will let him go with probation as a first offender, so don\u2019t necessarily expect a long prison sentence.\nOne other point to bear in mind about this plea deal, at least as described by the Times. It only covers Weiner\u2019s conduct over the first three months of last year. If Weiner didn\u2019t sext any other underage girls before or after that period, he\u2019s in the clear. Presumably, the FBI has checked out his communications well enough to establish that no other crimes have been committed. If more emerges, however, Weiner would still be criminally liable for them, and might find himself right back in the same court.\nThe hearing will take place at 11 am today, so we\u2019ll know more then about any prison time Weiner will get, plus whether and how long he may have to register as a sex offender. It\u2019s been a long way to rock bottom for Weiner, who ran for mayor in the city in which he\u2019ll plead out just a few short years ago, but perhaps he might finally dispense with his peculiar demons after hitting it.\nCongress sends resolution on Charlottesville to Trump that calls on him to speak out against white supremacy\nPretty nervy of Ryan and McConnell. I thought the way they\u2019d satisfy Democrats eager to censure Trump for his Charlottesville \u201cvery fine people on both sides\u201d comments would be to pass a resolution that condemned the white nationalists and omitted any direct reference to POTUS.

        "raw_content": "Changing Jobs or Retiring? Don't Forget Your Retirement Savings!\u2021\nChoosing a distribution method from your retirement plan when you change jobs or retire can have significant tax implications.\nA distribution is a payout of realized savings and earnings from a 401(k) or other retirement plan. In general, you must begin taking distributions from your account by April 1 of the year following the year in which you turn 70\u00bd. Your distribution options may include keeping your money in your plan, enacting a direct rollover, or taking a cash distribution. Each option has different consequences.\nIf you keep your money in your plan, you will no longer be able to make contributions, but you will still maintain control over the investments and your money will continue to grow tax deferred. Similarly, in a direct rollover, you move your money directly to an IRA or your new employer's qualified retirement account without physically receiving any funds. If you are under 55 at the time of separation from service, a direct rollover may be a good option, as it avoids the penalties associated with a cash distribution from a qualified plan.\nThose tempted to take a cash distribution from a qualified plan should consider the taxes and penalties that apply to this type of distribution. You must pay taxes on the money you receive at then-current rates, and if you are under age 55 at the time of separation from service, you may also have to pay a 10% penalty, making this option viable only if the funds are immediately necessary.\nWhatever option you choose, you should think carefully before making any decisions and speak with a tax advisor before picking a distribution election.\nSome Distribution Options\nA Look at Some of Your Choices\nRetirees Should Consider Tax Consequences\nWithholding on Cash Payments\nThe Potential Cost of a Cash Distribution\nYour retirement savings plan offers you several choices when you decide to change jobs or when you retire. This report explains some of the options you may be able to choose from in deciding how you want the money in your plan treated when one of these events occurs.\nA distribution is simply defined as a payout of the amount of money that has accumulated in your retirement savings plan. This may include amounts you have contributed, the \"vested\" portion of any amounts your employer has contributed, plus any earnings on those contributions.\nYou will want to think carefully before making any decisions about the money in your retirement plan, as some choices may mean you have to pay more in income taxes on your distribution. It's also a good idea to talk with a tax advisor before picking a distribution election.\nKeep Money in Employer's Plan: Allows continued tax-deferral of any growth.\nMake a Direct Rollover: Allows continued contributions and tax-deferral of any growth. Avoids potential taxes and penalty fees.\nTake a Cash Distribution: Satisfies immediate need for cash. Substantial taxes and penalty fees may apply.\nYou may be able to leave your money in the plan; move it to another retirement savings account, such as an IRA, or another employer's retirement savings plan if you're changing jobs; or take a cash distribution.\nKeep Your Money in the Plan: You can leave your savings in your employer's retirement savings plan if your account balance was more than $5,000 at any time, depending on your plan's rules. Minimum distributions must begin after you reach age 70 \u00bd, however. You'll continue to enjoy tax-deferred compounding of any investment earnings and receive regular financial account statements and performance reports. Although you will no longer be allowed to contribute to the plan, you will still have control over how your money is invested among the plan's investment options. You also may still be able to obtain information from the professionals who manage and administer your account.\nWhen retiring, you might choose this option if your spouse is still working or if you have other sources of retirement income (such as taxable investment income). If you're starting your own business when you leave the company, keeping your retirement money in your former company's plan may help protect your retirement assets from creditors, should your new venture run into unforeseen trouble.\nExample: Sue, 58, is retiring from her full-time job. Her husband is retiring and the family receives his pension and Social Security benefits, which will cover most of their current living expenses. Sue plans to work part-time at her church after \"retirement\" and does not expect to need her retirement savings for several more years. After consulting with a tax advisor, Sue decided that keeping her money in the company's retirement plan at least until she turns age 59 \u00bd will provide her with the greatest flexibility in the future.\nMove Your Money to Another Retirement Account: You can move your money into another qualified retirement account, such as an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), or, if you're changing jobs, your new employer's retirement savings plan. With a \"direct rollover,\" the money goes directly from your former employer's retirement plan to the IRA or new plan, and you never touch your money. With this method, you continue to defer taxes on the full amount of your plan savings.\nExample: Bill is taking a new job at a different company. He elects to roll over balances from his existing plan into an IRA rather than transfer his assets into his new employer's 401(k) plan. This provides Bill with a much broader choice of investment options.\nTake a Cash Distribution: You can choose to have your money paid to you in one lump sum, or in installments of a fixed amount or over a set number of years, depending on your plan's provisions. However, you may have to pay taxes on a cash distribution and, if you're under age 55 at the time when you leave your job, you may also have to pay a 10% penalty for early withdrawal.\nIf you're retiring, you will want to take into consideration whether favorable tax rules apply to your lump-sum distribution. To qualify as a lump-sum distribution, you must receive all the amounts you have in all your retirement plans with a company (including 401(k), profit-sharing, and stock-purchase plans) within a one-year period.\nPotentially favorable tax rules that may apply to a lump-sum distribution include the minimum distribution allowance and 10-year forward income averaging if you were born before January 2, 1936.\nTen-year forward income averaging: The taxable part of the distribution is taxed at special rates based on levels for single taxpayers in 1986.\nExample: Ron, born in 1935, is retiring in three months. He met with a financial advisor to determine which distribution method would result in the greatest benefit after taxes. His advisor showed him that, under some assumptions about inflation and future rates of return, his best course would be to take a lump-sum distribution and use 10-year forward income averaging. Under other assumptions, he would benefit from leaving his money in the company plan or rolling it over directly into an IRA. There may be other distribution options available. Contact your plan administrator for information on all options available under your plan.\nIf you choose to physically receive part or all of your money (say, $10,000) when you retire or change jobs, this action is considered a cash distribution from your former employer's retirement account. The cash payment is subject to a mandatory tax withholding of 20%, which the old company must pay to the IRS, and possibly a 10% penalty if you are under age 55 at the time you left the company.1\nYou can avoid paying taxes and any penalties on a cash distribution if you redeposit your retirement plan money within 60 days to an IRA or your new employer's qualified plan. However, you'll have to make up the 20% withholding from your own pocket in order to avoid taxes and any penalties on that amount. The 20% withholding will be recognized as taxes paid when you file your regular income tax at year end, and any excess amount will be refunded to you as an IRS refund.\nDistribution - 20% Tax Withholding1 = Amount in Your Pocket\n$10,000 distribution - $2,000 Tax Withholding = $8,000 in Your Pocket\nIf you are under age 55 when you separate from service with your employer, and choose to take a cash distribution, be aware of how it can immediately whittle away the money you've worked so hard to save. You can take a cash distribution and avoid the 10% penalty so long as you roll over the entire $10,000 within 60 days into an IRA or your new employer's qualified plan, even though you actually received only $8,000 after paying the 20% tax withholding. In that case, $2,000 will have to come out of your pocket.1\nA distribution is a payout of realized savings and earnings from a retirement plan. In general, you must begin taking distributions from your account by April 1 of the year following the year in which you turn 70 \u00bd, unless you are still working for your employer.\nYour distribution options include keeping your money in your plan; enacting a direct rollover; or taking a cash distribution.\nIf you keep your money in your plan you will no longer be able to make contributions, but you still maintain control over the investments and any growth continues to be tax deferred.\nIn a direct rollover, you have your money moved directly to a qualified plan or IRA without physically receiving a cent. If you are under age 55 at the time of separation from service, a direct rollover may be a good option, as it avoids the hefty taxes and penalties associated with a cash distribution.\nAlthough a cash distribution is perhaps the most enticing option available, consider that you must pay taxes on the money you receive at then-current rates. And if you are under age 55 when you leave your employer, you may have to pay Uncle Sam 10% of your savings in penalties.\n1Additional taxes may be due, depending upon individual's tax bracket.\nRetirement Plan Rollover Options\nWhat do I need to consider for a 401(k) rollover?",

        "raw_content": "Chick-fil-A's digital transformation includes data-driven decisions\nBecoming more data centric with a GIS platform providing billions of data points has led Chick-fil-A to open stores in new markets without diluting the brand.\nBy Teena Maddox | September 26, 2017, 1:41 PM PST\nChick-fil-A is one of the fastest-growing restaurant chains in the US, and it recently underwent a digital transformation to improve decision-making based on predictive analytics on location and market analysis.\nThe popular fast-food chain opened its first restaurant in 1967, and four years ago, company executives began using Esri's ArcGIS (geographic information system) platform to optimize site selection using predictive analytics.\nThe privately-owned company currently operates approximately 2,200 locations and opens 90 to 100 new stores annually, according to Chan Lee, enterprise GIS manager for Chick-fil-A's strategy and analytics team.\nThe company has revenue estimated at more than $8 billion according to QSR, and it's not just soccer moms taking their kids to the restaurant after games. Although that is, admittedly, a big part of their customer base.\nImage: iStock/jetcityimage\nThe types of data that is assessed before a new restaurant is opened includes the basics of census data and business data, but it also creates personas of the typical customer that lives in the immediate area that goes beyond median health, population, and income information. \"It'll say something like, 'this is a soccer mom.' You can almost put a face to that customer. Being able to tell that story with the data really rang a chord within Chick-fil-A,\" Lee said.\n\"Everything we're doing is data-driven decisions. And now we're trying to look at more and more data. On top of the data we collect, we do intercept surveys, or now we're really going for more automated technologies,\" Lee said. \"Let's say we can get data from cell phone providers or other sources of data. We're looking at transactional levels of data. We're looking at really large data sets at this point. You're thinking about billions and billions of records. And that's great and all, but really what we're trying to do is trying to figure out, find the signals from the noise within such a large data set, and that's where really advanced spatial technologies and big data servers are really paving the way for how we continue to apply our methodology and foundation, and doing it at a much larger scale.\"\nSEE: Ebook\u2014Digital transformation: A CXO's guide (TechRepublic)\nEvery new store opening is being assessed using this new data, and it's one of the reasons Chick-fil-A finally entered the New York City market in October 2015 and opened a second location in April 2016.\n\"We strategize the entire country of every intersection where we would like to be. We know where all the stores are. Obviously we know how they're performing and trending compared to other stores in the chain. We can drill down to region, to designated market areas, to counties, just flashing by this data very quickly. And all the data is updated in either real time or near real time as it comes in. So that visibility across the business helps really drive much better decisions much more quickly,\" Lee said.\nMoving to a digital environment\nThis is a complete transformation from how the company used to determine new restaurant sites before Lee joined the company in early 2013.\nLee recalled, \"The first day at my job, I was walking through a hall and one of my co-workers was at the copy machine printing out a map, and I was like,'why are you printing out a map? Don't we have an app for that yet?' They're like, 'no, we just print this out, and you Google map in the field and make note on pen and paper, come back to the office, and input it into the system.' I was like, 'hey, this is not the way we should do this. There's redundancy here, we can clean this up.' That's when we decided, well everything should be real time, everything can be updated on an app, everything should flow across servers, and all the data should be shared across the entire organization. As a company that's built brick-and-mortar stores, anyone benefits from being able to see stores on a map. So immediately there was inherent value in going that route.\"\nLee compares the difference in the old way versus GIS mapping on the Esri platform: \"In a technical state, unless you've worked in it, you tend to lose people. It's almost like saying, 'I will paint you this painting,' and you will describe to them the blank canvas. Most people have a really hard time visualizing the finished product. So what we've ended up doing is initially saying, 'we'll paint the entire painting for you,' and that's when they have an aha moment. When you have a painting in front of them, they say, 'oh, I can see this tree,' and they can start asking better questions.\"\nSEE: America's coolest company: How Big Ass Fans went from cooling cows to a multinational tech powerhouse (TechRepublic cover story) | Download the PDF version\nThe GIS mapping allows everyone to see the stores spatially, with analytics tools such as what the customers look like, the size of the trade area, how far customers are coming from, or why they're underperforming in an area where, Lee said, \"we know soccer moms are living there, but why do they not tend to come from this one particular area. What are we missing?\"\n\"We start to ask much better questions once you have something in front of people. And I think that's how we've been able to transform data and data analytics at Chick-fil-A because of that. You just take baby steps and keep adding on to that,\" he said.\nThe importance of this data-driven work is expanding. When Lee started working at Chick-fil-A, he only supported a dozen users at the company\u2014that quickly expanded to 50 people, and within two years Lee's department supported had 200 people. Today, his team of about 20 people support just under 400 people, he said. Overall, the company has 1,500 full-time employees. \"We're getting close to just under a quarter of all employees. And these are not really simple tools. You can do a lot with them. The fact that we have that many users, and I think our active user rate (anyone who logs in at least once a month) is hovering around 75%. So we know the system is getting used, and we're constantly adding more people and constantly adding capabilities.\"\nHaving a customized system has allowed the platform to be used broadly across Chick-fil-A, touching 43 different groups within the company. \"My approach to this was that I didn't want to buy something off the shelf because once you do that, you tend to have to give up different functionalities, or you have to click two or three more buttons,\" he said.\nSEE: Tech's war on drugs: How big data is being used to fight the US opioid epidemic (ZDNet)\nThe growing pains of being so successful are part of what Lee's team is trying to overcome with data-driven decisions, as volume increases within each store and bigger stores are needed to provide more parking and seating, he said.\nAs part of the need for larger stores, in 2018, the chain will open its largest-ever Chick-fil-A, and it will be in New York's Financial District.\n\"New markets are always a challenge, because you never know, because you don't have a ton of exact comparable data based on that. But definitely the years of knowledge of doing this has definitely helped. It's a tremendous asset, and the way we forecast with the same methodology, we have to tweak it for an ultra urban environment like New York City and Manhattan,\" Lee said.\nSEE: Data, AI, IoT\u2014The future of retail (ZDNet special report) | Download the report as a PDF (TechRepublic)\nThe billions of data points from an ever-expanding restaurant chain create their own challenge as well.\n\"We want to have as much information as possible, but because we're growing as quickly as we have, that's created some technological challenges, because once you hit a certain threshold of volume of data coming in, processing that in an old-school manner no longer really applies, it was taking too much time. This is where bringing in systems like Esri and being able to really integrate that with all their other enterprise systems really took off a lot of the mundane tasks that people should not be doing, nor do they have the capacity to do. We're automating that so they can really focus on things like customer service and quality of food and leveraging their market knowledge to other selected sites or to help our customers,\" Lee said.\nHow a hybrid cloud digital transformation saved a 96-year-old company (ZDNet)\nDreamWorks Animation gets a Hollywood-style digital transformation (TechRepublic)\nWhy Siemens put $10 billion into digital transformation (TechRepublic)\nHow one auction website underwent a digital transformation to boost sales from $8 million to $70 million (TechRepublic)\nWhy Dick's Sporting Goods decided to play its own game in e\u00adcommerce (PDF download) (TechRepublic)\nResearch: Digital Transformation 2017: Strategy, Returns on Investment, and Challenges (Tech Pro Research)",

But could this backfire?\nBy Toni Bowers | in Career Management, May 5, 2008, 11:56 PM PST\nThe Canadian paper The Globe and Mail ran a story last week in which it stated that a union representing government workers was going to make the use of pocket-size electronic devices such as BlackBerrys a bargaining issue. In other words, it's advocating that the government pay its employees for work they do out of the office.\n\"For some people, having a BlackBerry is like: We own you. You are our person, 24 hours, 7 days a week,\" said Ed Cashman, Public Service Alliance of Canada's regional executive vice-president for the National Capital Region, who says the union will insert the issue of BlackBerry use into its continuing contract negotiations.\nIn the United States, legal experts are warning that a new wave of overtime litigation is on the horizon, in which employees will claim overtime for all the hours they've spent clicking away at their hand-held devices.\nSome experts believe that adding PDA usage to contract negotiations would result in people working longer hours or would add more expectations around availability.

        "title": "The sequester casts a wide net - Michelle Singletary - telegram.com - Worcester, MA",
        "raw_content": "The sequester casts a wide net\nMichelle Singletary - The Color of Money\nThere's one thing for certain about the looming federal spending cuts. Whether or not there's a deal to avert the blanket cuts, things are going to get financially tight for a lot of people who least expect it.\nFirst, can I just say I dislike the word \"sequester\"? It's a cold-sounding word being used for a cold end result. Yes, we need to pay our debts. Yes, the federal government has borrowed too much for too long. But the way the politicians -- Republicans and Democrats -- are handling the so-called budget fix is a poor excuse for a measured and humane way to find the needed cuts.\nTo sequester means to set apart. And in the context of the budget debate and the scrambling to avoid $1.2 trillion in automatic federal spending cuts, a lot of money will be separated from people who need it.\nPerhaps you're thinking because you don't live in or near Washington, you won't be affected. In the week leading up to the day the spending cuts take effect, only a quarter of Americans said they are following the issue very closely, according to a national survey by the Pew Research Center and The Washington Post.\nBut people, you must pay attention. Your personal finances may play a part in this political drama. The cuts ($85 billion for the current fiscal year) will affect more than just the government folks who may get furloughed or lose their jobs. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that the sequester could result in a loss of about 750,000 jobs this year. And although the cuts will fall heavily on public sector workers, they will be felt across all sectors, the National Women's Law Center points out.\nIf President Obama and Congress don't reach an agreement to reduce the deficit, 40 percent Americans say it would be better to let the automatic spending cuts go into effect, according to Pew. Just 30 percent of those surveyed thought their own personal finances would be harmed in a major way.\nBut there are side effects to sequestration. \"The indiscriminate cuts have the potential to stall the beginnings of economic recovery because lost jobs and reduced assistance mean people will have less to spend,\" concluded a report by the Coalition on Human Needs.\nWhen people's salaries are reduced or they lose their jobs, they have no choice but to cut. They stop shopping or eating out. They ditch vacation plans. They also cancel the services of others. All those cuts can lead to other furloughs or job losses.\nDuring a recent online discussion, I received this thoughtful yet haunting note from someone anticipating being furloughed: \"In the past, the potential sequestration and furloughs would have me stressed out beyond words. But thanks to you, we're in an OK place. We have no debt other than our mortgage, we have some emergency funds, and we've got things we can cut back on. My problem is that I really feel badly about having to cancel the housecleaners we have, because I know money is tight for them.\"\nI don't have a problem with people spending for such services if, as this reader has done, they are doing a great many things right financially.\nYet for many, the spending cuts will hit far harder and deeper than concern about canceling housekeeping services. For those Americans, it's a matter of finding the money for basic needs such as housing or utilities.\nWith so much to lose, many people are asking me what should they do?\nDon't assume you won't be affected.\nWhether the cuts are delayed during a last-minute deal or take effect immediately, cuts are coming. Now or later, many people will have to deal with some financial shortfall.\nMy advice? Plan for the worst and hope for the best.\nMeticulously comb your budget. Every personal expense should be considered for elimination or reduction. Figure out the minimum it takes to run your household without all the frills you've been used to. Should you get laid off, it will help you from scoffing at jobs offering much less than what you used to earn.\nIf you've been promising to start or increase an emergency fund, do it now. Add up what it takes to run your household for a month, then save for as many months as you can.\nIf you've been on an aggressive debt-reduction plan, stop. Your goal is to stockpile cash and lots of it. Make just the minimum payments or stick to your regular payment schedule.\nAnd yes, until times become plenty again, feel bad for others because that's the humane thing to do. But cut the services that you can't or won't be able to afford.\nReaders can write to Michelle Singletary c/o The Washington Post, 1150 15th St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20071.

As far as the existing functions of the equipment itself are concerned, the dyeing machine of the fabric can fully guarantee the dyeing process of the conventional fabric. Moreover, the dyeing cycle is also shortened, and the yield can be increased to ensure the dyeing quality of the fabric.\nFrom the user's point of view, high efficiency, energy saving, low emissions have become an essential function of the new fabric dyeing machine. Moreover, the application requirements of the equipment are no longer only satisfied to improve production efficiency, but also solve energy consumption and environmental protection problems. When the dyeing is completed, the steam valve should be closed and the cooling water should be turned on to cool down. When the cloth is released, the cylinder head needs to be opened. It must be displayed on the pressure gauge without pressure. The temperature can be opened below 80 \u00b0C, the machine stops running and the steam source is cut off to avoid burns.\nNext, a sample inspection should be carried out. After the confirmation is correct, the sewage can be discharged, and the water is cleaned before being discharged. If the appearance is not accurate, the feeding should be repaired, and the safety operation rules of the fabric dyeing machine should still be observed.www.textiledyeingmachines.com\nPrevious: Prevention methods of uneven dyeing and tangling problem for the high temperature dyeing machine\nNext: Working principle and electromechanical control requirements of overflow dyeing machine",

        "raw_content": "War love story could be turned into Spielberg film\nThe story of a 90-year-old British former Prisoner of War who fell in love with a German interpreter could be made in to a Hollywood blockbuster directed by Steven Spielberg, according to reports.\nSteven Spielberg has reportedly been approached to make a movie out of Horace Greasley's war story Photo: REUTERS\nHorace Greasley was held captive for two-and-a-half years in a Nazi PoW camp in Lamsdorf, Poland, during which time he began a secret affair with a girl from a nearby village called Rosa.\nHe would regularly sneak out at night for trysts with his lover and she would help him find food and equipment he could then smuggle back in to the camp.\nThey were separated at the end of the Second World War, just after she fell pregnant with his child.\nBut they got back in touch when the Government asked Mr Greasley to verify her story so she could work for the Americans as a translator.\nSadly, Rosa died in child birth and they were never reunited.\nUntil recently the story had gone untold but it has now been turned in to a book entitled \"Do the Birds Sing in Hell?\" by author Ken Scott.\nHis publishers have in turn passed it on to a leading Hollywood talent agency, who are reportedly putting it before Spielberg in the hope it can be adapted.\nMr Greasley said: \"It is up to the powers that be in the film world who have become interested.\n\"I never dreamed of it being turned in to a film. But I do feel that Rosa is worthy of something.\"\nMr Scott heard about the story through a friend before interviewing Mr Greasley.\nHe said: \"I would be lying if I said I was surprised that it could be turned in to a film.\n\"There's a love affair, there's the great British stiff upper lip and there is brutality. The story has absolutely everything.\"\nMr Greasley, from Ibstock, Leicestershire, now lives near Alicante in Spain. He joined the war effort in July 1939 as a 20-year-old conscript.\nThe private, from 2nd/5th Battalion, Leicestershire Regiment, was later captured by the Germans in Carvin, France, and transported to the camp, one of many renowned for its brutal regime.\nSpielberg, 62, won an Oscar for best director with the D-Day film Saving Private Ryan.\nTags: steven spielberg, movies",

        "raw_content": "Scott Hege\nWasco County Commission Position 1: Scott Hege\nIncumbent offers \u2018level head\u2019 and skills in problem solving\nEmily Fitzgerald\nScott Hege is proud of the work the county commission has done in recent years but believes he can always do better. That requires a thick skin, communication and a focus on problem solving, qualities he says are important in a county commissioner.\nHege is seeking re-election as for Wasco County Commissioner, Position 1, against challenger Roy Justesen.\nHe says that his goal is to keep things as apolitical as possible so the focus stays on solving problems. \u201cWe could spend a lot of time yelling and screaming, but that\u2019s not productive,\u201d he said.\nIn addition to serving as commissioner, Hege is on 19 different boards and committees, including numerous budget and finance committees. He is also the principle of a consulting firm in the construction sector. Hege believes that with the skillset he\u2019s gained from this background, he can be an advocate for Wasco County citizens.\n\u201cI enjoy the work and I think I\u2019m pretty good at it,\u201d Hege said, adding that all of his and the BOCC\u2019s\naccomplishments are a team effort. \u201cWe provide leadership and direction to the county, but it\u2019s the staff and everybody working together.\u201d\nHe is proud of the work this team has done, namely continuing to increase transparency and answering specific citizen concerns throughout the county. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of things we\u2019re working to get caught up on\u201d and they are able to do that because of resources and staff, he said.\nPart of that work is updating the county\u2019s comprehensive plan, which was last addressed in the 1980\u2019s. \u201cIt\u2019s important for us to make sure we get it right,\u201d he said. That means getting public input\u2014which Hege says is essential but can be difficult. \u201cAll of us represent the whole county\u201d he said, adding that he\u2019s proud anyone in the county can come to any commissioner and ask for help, rather than being limited to one district representative.\nHege is careful not to dwell too much on successes and looks ahead for solutions to ongoing issues.\nOne of these is road maintenance, including figuring out what to do with public access roads the county isn\u2019t required to maintain. Hege hopes the county can find a median between managing all or none of these roads. The county will soon be receiving more funds for road care and maintenance, which will help them do more, he said.\nAnother ongoing issue is property appraisal, since appraisers have operated for years solely on trends that don\u2019t necessarily represent what\u2019s happening on the ground. The county is in the process of getting appraising teams to these neighborhoods, he said.\nSouth Wasco County also has issues\u2014but a lot of successes as well.\nHege has been working with the South Wasco County Parks and Recreation District on the Pine Hollow boat ramps issue and is confident that they\u2019re getting close to a solution.\nHe\u2019s also on the management group addressing issues with the lower Deschutes river and is the sole government representative in a group of environmental conservationists. Though it can be frustrating, he\u2019s happy to represent the livelihood of the community in that group.\n\u201cThe issues and challenges they have in South Wasco County are very different than those in The Dalles,\u201d he said, \u201cA lot of really good things are going on down there and I think it\u2019s really encouraging.\u201d\nA native of Spokane, Wash., Hege has been in Wasco County since he became executive director of the Port of The Dalles in 1991, where he stayed for over 14 years. He lives with his wife, Betsy, on 12 acres of rural land west of The Dalles.\nHege can be reached at 541-288-1616.",

        "raw_content": "Trump, Beto O\u2019Rourke hold dueling rallies on immigration in El Paso\nPeople cheer as President Donald Trump speaks at a rally at the El Paso County Coliseum, Monday, Feb. 11, 2019, in El Paso, Texas. (AP Photo/Eric Gay)\nBy Eli Stokols and Molly Hennessy-Fiske, Los Angeles Times\nEL PASO, Texas \u2014 Undaunted by his past failures, President Donald Trump on Monday again headed south to the border with Mexico to make his case to spend billions of federal dollars for a wall there, hoping to put Democrats in Washington on the defensive as another partial government shutdown looms.\nYet awaiting him in El Paso were residents fuming over the president\u2019s false characterization of their city as a former hotbed of violence during his State of the Union address last week. That sparked plans for protest marches and rallies that gave the area\u2019s former congressman, Democrat Beto O\u2019Rourke, a prime-time national platform as he considers a presidential campaign to challenge Trump.\nThe showdown came as the three-week government funding measure, agreed to last month to end a record-setting 35-day shutdown, is scheduled to lapse at midnight Friday.\nLate Monday, a House-Senate committee bargaining over border security funding and trying to avert another shutdown reached an \u201cagreement in principle,\u201d according to Sen. Richard C. Shelby, R-Ala., chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee. Talks had stalled on the weekend, Republicans said, over Democrats\u2019 demands to limit the detention of undocumented immigrants.\nShould Congress pass a compromise, the onus would be on the president to accept it, or risk taking blame again for a partial federal shutdown. Heading to El Paso, Trump planned to pressure Democrats from the rally stage and, before arriving, sought to pre-emptively shift blame should talks ultimately fail. After the recent shutdown, polls showed the public put the blame squarely on him.\nWith both his rally and the protest featuring O\u2019Rourke likely to receive national television coverage, the split-screen moment promised something of an audition of a hypothetical 2020 matchup, effectively creating a live debate between the president and a charismatic potential challenger on the issue that most animated Trump\u2019s followers in 2016 and might well again in his re-election bid. Though O\u2019Rourke lost a Senate race in November, his campaign excited national attention among Democrats.\nBefore leaving the White House, the president signaled that he too saw the dueling rallies as an early competition, with his familiar emphasis on crowd sizes.\n\u201cWe have a line that\u2019s very long already,\u201d Trump told reporters, referring to people waiting to enter his venue. He added, \u201cI understand our competitor\u2019s got a line too, but it\u2019s a tiny little line.\u201d\nEager to frame the contrast, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway dismissed O\u2019Rourke as a \u201closer\u201d who is looking for \u201cfree air time\u201d by counterprogramming the president\u2019s rally. \u201cIf he wants to remind everybody that he\u2019s against securing the border, a man who represented El Paso, then have at it,\u201d she said during an interview on \u201cFox & Friends.\u201d\nWith protest organizers anticipating a turnout of between 6,000 to 9,000 people, O\u2019Rourke called the march \u201ca positive response to the president\u2019s lies about our community.\u201d He said the event had little to do with him: \u201cThe reason this is happening is because the community came together.\u201d\nIn a tweet on Monday, Trump falsely portrayed Democrats as resisting any compromise on border security funding: \u201cThe Democrats do not want us to detain, or send back, criminal aliens! This is a brand new demand. Crazy!\u201d\nTrump\u2019s drumbeat on immigration has yet to pay political dividends beyond his own supporters, and it has further galvanized his opponents. His fear-mongering during campaign rallies last fall over caravans of immigrants failed to prevent a Democratic wave that cost Republicans a net 40 seats and their majority in the House.\nOver the five-week-long shutdown, the longest in the country\u2019s history, the president\u2019s depictions of violent crimes along the border, much of it discredited, failed to persuade Democrats to agree to the $5.7 billion he wanted for a 234-mile portion of his proposed border wall.\nAnd during his State of the Union address, his incorrect portrayal of El Paso \u2014 he said it had \u201cextremely high rates of violent crime\u201d and was \u201cone of our nation\u2019s most dangerous cities\u201d until the government built a \u201cpowerful barrier\u201d there \u2014 touched a nerve among civic leaders and citizens.\nThe El Paso County Commissioners Court on Monday approved a resolution assailing the president and his administration for misinformation and lies about a \u201ccrisis situation\u201d on the U.S.-Mexico border, and noting that the federal government said \u201cno crisis exists\u201d and that \u201cfiscal year 2017 was the lowest year of illegal cross-border migration on record.\u201d\nLyda Ness Garcia, a lawyer and founder of the Women\u2019s March of El Paso, said organizers of Monday night\u2019s march from a high school at the border to the city coliseum, where the president was to appear, were motivated to counteract Trump\u2019s \u201clies\u201d about their city.\n\u201cThere was a deep sense of anger in our community, from the left and the right. It\u2019s the demonization of our border. It\u2019s the misrepresentation that the wall made us safe when we were safe long before,\u201d she said.\nReferring to the Mexican city just over the border, Garcia added: \u201cWe\u2019re connected to Juarez. People forget. We\u2019re not separate. We\u2019re one culture.\u201d\nIn truth, violent crime dropped in El Paso after a peak in 1993. It was actually at historic lows before Congress authorized a fence along the Rio Grande in 2006. Crime began to rise again over the next four years, after the fencing went up.\nThe city\u2019s Republican mayor, Dee Margo, admonished Trump after the State of the Union speech, saying during an appearance on CNN that the president\u2019s depiction of El Paso is \u201cnot factually correct.\u201d\nFernando Garcia, executive director of the Border Network for Human Rights, said organizers intended the march as a community celebration rather than an anti-Trump or pro-O\u2019Rourke political event.\n\u201cYou will see people proudly celebrating what we are \u2014 how El Paso has been a city that has welcomed everybody, including immigrants,\u201d said Garcia, who noted that residents had seen the fallout from the Trump administration\u2019s \u201czero tolerance\u201d immigration policies firsthand, both in family separations and in asylum-seekers being turned away from border bridges and required to remain in Mexico while they await hearings.\nIn December, two Guatemalan migrant children died in Border Patrol custody in the El Paso area after seeking asylum.\n\u201cTrump has created policies and strategies that have created deep wounds in our region,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cWe are not a violent city. We are not criminals. We are part of America and we deserve respect from this president. We need to denounce his distortion of the border and his lies about what immigrants are about.\u201d\nFormer Democratic Rep.

        "raw_content": "GUEST POST: Why Hiring Managers Must Verify College Degrees\nToday we have a guest blogger at The Employer Handbook. It\u2019s Samantha Gray. Samantha is a freelance writer/researcher for www.BachelorsDegreeOnline.com. Her articles cover issues related both to online and traditional education, as well as student lifestyle, careers and business. Please send any questions or comments her way at SamanthaGray024@gmail.com.\n(Want to guest blog at The Employer Handbook? Email me.)\nAny person in charge of hiring and firing will tell you that their work is anything but easy. It\u2019s a high-stress, high-workload, high-risk job that requires a lot of patience, knowledge and practice. Naturally, not everyone is cut out to be a hiring manager, and there are many out there who (for lack of better words) are just not good at what they do.\nLike all workers who have become complacent in their jobs, some begin to take shortcuts in the hiring process. One of the most common shortcuts taken by hiring managers is to not verify an applicant\u2019s college degree claim. This happens more than we would like to believe, and the consequences are greater than one could ever know.\nVerifying a college degree is not only the right thing to do, it is the foundation for a successful business. Below are three more reasons why hiring managers must check an applicant\u2019s educational background.\nExperience doesn\u2019t always trump education: Some hiring managers like to believe that if an applicant can verify their previous work experience, it isn\u2019t necessary to verify a college degree. This couldn\u2019t be farther from the truth. There are several stories of top executives who have worked their way up the ladder by lying about their education. The most recent story involved former Yahoo! CEO, Scott Thompson, who told the company he had a degree in computer science, but he didn\u2019t.\nThe greatest problem with accepting experience over education is that, if it is a position that requires a special skill set, knowledge or professional license, formal education is the only thing that provides that foundation. For example, you wouldn\u2019t want to hire a doctor who can prove that they spent a year abroad with a non-profit group treating war refugees without first verifying their degree and medical license. Their experience may be true and captivating, but it doesn\u2019t undermine the importance of formal education.\nIt saves the company money, in the long run: If you hire someone who lies about their education, one of two things will happen. Either their lack of education will hinder their ability to succeed at the job, or their lie will be discovered. The consequence of both these things is that the employee will be fired. This will cause turnover problems and hurt the company\u2019s reputation, which cost the business money.\nIt\u2019s your job: If you are in charge of hiring and firing, you are in charge of verifying every part of an interviewee\u2019s resume. This means that you need to call every former employer and every alma mater to check experience and education. In addition, you should conduct a criminal background check and follow all other hiring policies set by your company. You do this because it is the best way to ensure employment of the brightest and most-prepared people, and because it is part of your job description. When you hire someone without verifying their whole background, you are failing at your job and could be setting yourself up to lose your job. Don\u2019t let that happen.\nVerifying a person\u2019s educational background is not just important for positions that require degrees, it is also important for setting up a hiring standard. When employers are consistent with educational background checks, they are sending a message to job seekers that they are serious about only hiring well-education, honest people.",

        "title": "Alone in Berlin (2016) Review | The Film Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Plot: In 1940 Berlin is in the mist of National Socialism and any kind of opposition to its totalitarian regime is brutally repressed. In this terrifying climate, after their son is killed at the front, a middle- aged couple find themselves in the position to affect a change while risking their own lives for freedom.\nCast: Emma Thompson, Brendan Gleeson, Uwe Preuss, Daniel Br\u00fchl, Lars Rudolph, Katrin Pollitt, Mikael Persbrandt, Katharina Sch\u00fcttler, Louis Hofmann, Godehard Giese, Jacob Matschenz.\nThe start of Alone in Berlin is immediately striking as the world of the film is introduced via the death of Otto and Anna Quangel\u2019s young son Hans, played by the very talented young actor Louis Hofmann. The scene is very telling of the mood that we are to experience in the coming 103 minutes \u2013 we see Hans\u2019 short breathing as he runs in a French forest at the war-front in spring 1940, and we hear a shot, thus realizing that Hans has been hit. It\u2019s followed by simple shots of nature: Hans\u2019 face motionless and the sound of birds in the background. This acts as a clear indicator as to the story to come and the tone of the film as a whole \u2013 with so many lives lost to World War II, this one true story amongst millions of similar stories plays as the focus for a quite fascinating war-based drama-thriller.\nThe main arc of the film follows the young soldier\u2019s parents in their journey of resistance against the National Socialist Regime, with Brendan Gleeson and Emma Thompson playing Otto and Anna Quangel respectively. They are a middle-aged couple whose main reason for living is their only son, thus when he is taken away from them there is an immediate and strong reaction; showing us that they don\u2019t believe in Hitler\u2019s propaganda at all, but have been forced to accept it. At least until now.\nThe character work is quite extraordinary in this respect as Gleeson\u2019s Otto seems to be visibly less distraught at his son\u2019s passing than his wife, yet it is his intrinsic suffering that pushes the story into action with the factory worker beginning to write letters of resistance as a result of his grief towards a seemingly worthless loss. The couple are soon put on the black list of the Gestapo and it is up to detective Escherich (Daniel Br\u00fchl) to track them down.\nThe film works very effectively to emphasise the loneliness that the real-life non-conformist Anna and Otto must have felt during war-time Nazi-led Berlin with many an \u201cordinary day\u201d activity seeming to add to the discomfort the characters are feeling. A tram journey to work is one particularly poignant moment as Otto is forced to process the death of his son as fellow commuters celebrate the Nazi\u2019s successful occupation of France, Hans\u2019 final resting place. In this moment he is isolated from his surroundings by non-diagetic music, he looks dejected, and there is a true sense that the character seems to have lost his meaning in life. It\u2019s the turning point in the film as it is the genesis of all of its action, and it comes at a point where the nostalgia of seeing 1940s Berlin is beginning to wear off.\nThe film is masterfully structured and every detail is important to the story. Pivotal moments are emphasised often by the use of montage or the ways in which P\u00e9rez holds the camera to create moments of suspense. One such a moment comes when lead character Otto witnesses the destruction of his city at the hands of the war via the tram he rides to work. It provides a metaphor for how the Regime will bring only disaster and death to the country, and the people within it. No longer are the people cheerful and positive, and this mirrors our hero\u2019s shift in beliefs to illustrate the anti-war movement within the country at the time.\nThe movie features a fantastic script, but it\u2019s the use of the camera and the music \u2013 masterfully composed by Alexandre Deplat \u2013 that truly captures your attention. The movie is beautiful, and the meaning behind each of its more impressive visual moments emphasised by the marvellous acting from each and every member of the cast. The movie is all about the unspoken, inner feelings of its characters, and where the visuals lay the path towards an understanding, the actors \u2013 led by Emma Thompson, Brendan Gleeson and Daniel Br\u00fchl \u2013 walk that path to what is an excellent collaborative effort.\nThe film deals with the German Resistance within Nazi Germany and, while I believe that this may have been better served being presented in the German language, I think that this is a topic that should be explored more on the big screen. So, although these adaptations have been quite prominent in contemporary German cinema, it\u2019s pleasing to see films like this made with the intention to target international audiences. Germans, often brainwashed by promises of affluence and a meaning to their lives, also perished in huge numbers, whether that was at the hand of the war, the regime or their own people, and it\u2019s important to recognise this as well as the subject matter of resistance this movie centres upon. Alone In Berlin was a moving adaptation of Hans Fallada\u2019s novel \u201cEvery Man Dies Alone\u201d (based on the true story), and I hope that the novel\u2019s international popularity can be translated via this film. It is for all these reasons I give it \u2026.\nhttps://www.thefilmagazine.com/alone-in-berlin-2016-review\">\nPosted in Francesca Militello, History, Latest Posts, Reviews Tagged alone in berlin, Brendan Gleeson, daniel br\u00fchl, emma thompson, francesca militello, german history, german resistance, godehard giese, historical film, history, jacob matschenz, katharina sch\u00fcttler, katrin pollitt, lars rudolph, luois hofmann, mikael persbrandt, review, uk cinema, uwe preuss",

        "title": "Anmore, B.C.\u2019s historic Murray homestead needs a saviour - The Globe and Mail",
        "raw_content": "Vancouver Anmore, B.C.\u2019s historic Murray homestead needs a saviour\nAnmore, B.C.\u2019s historic Murray homestead needs a saviour\nBefore the village of Anmore became known for its soaring property prices, it was better known as long-time home to the Canadian icon nicknamed \u201cMa\u201d Murray.\nMargaret Murray came to Vancouver from the United States and met her husband George while working at the Vancouver Chinook. Together, they started a national country magazine in Anmore, followed by several community newspapers. A pioneering feminist, Ma Murray stirred up controversy with her humorous opinion pieces on the politics of the day. She became a celebrity in her own right, appearing four times on Front Page Challenge, hosting a CBC program, and receiving the Order of Canada.\nThe Murrays\u2019 connection to Anmore goes back to 1916, when the couple paid $10 for their Anmore property, north of Port Moody. They built a homestead and moved there in 1917. During the Depression, they used the property as a full-time farm, helping supply food to locals. They relocated to Lillooet in 1934, so George could run as member of legislative assembly. They started a newspaper and Ma Murray became a famous columnist. She died in 1982.\nDespite the fact that Anmore has seen major property price escalations the last several years \u2013 due to the standard one-acre lot sizes \u2013 the tiny Murray house survived. That\u2019s because a family donated the property to the village of Anmore in 1988, after it had incorporated as a village. Council used the 800 sq. ft. cedar-sided house as council chambers until 2012.\nThe Murray home, 1916, Anmore (Port Moody), B.C. (B.C. Archives)\nThe residents of Anmore had incorporated in order to thwart a regional plan to boost density in the village by 15,000 homes. They wanted to maintain their hobby farms and homesteads. Today, it is highly desirable for its large, multi-million-dollar single-family housing, only 30 to 40 minutes to downtown Vancouver.\nFour years ago, the old council chambers building had become rodent-infested and unfit for use. Everything was emptied out and the council had to use the local school for meetings. When the school closed for summer, they were using a gazebo, says Coun. Paul Weverink.\nAfter four years without a building, they\u2019re now using a trailer. Anmore desperately needs a village hall, but funds for the community are tight. It has 2,300 residents and only one store. It might be flush with real estate equity, but they\u2019ve only got 820 residential taxpayers and no industrial or commercial properties, says Coun. Weverink.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a unique little community,\u201d he says. \u201cWe\u2019re seen as a \u2018have\u2019 community, a very wealthy community. But it doesn\u2019t mean Anmore itself is wealthy. We\u2019ve asked all levels of government for funding \u2026 and we will try to get some grants, but it\u2019s tough.\u201d\nIf the village can\u2019t afford to build itself a village hall, how could it restore a 100-year-old house? On Tuesday night, a group of locals will present a business proposal to council to do just that.\nThere\u2019s long been talk about demolishing the Murray homestead, but the new council is open to saving it, particularly Coun. Weverink.\nMargaret 'Ma' Murray (centre) at a taping of CBC's Front Page Challenge with panelist Betty Kennedy (left) and actress Zsa Zsa Gabor. (Anmore Alternative)\n\u201cThe village was literally born in that 800 square foot building,\u201d he says. \u201cThis is the birthplace of our village. That little building has so much history, which is why I have been an advocate on council. It\u2019s all about fiscal responsibility, and if you are a heritage advocate, there is always a percentage of the community that doesn\u2019t care, that doesn\u2019t see the value. We get crucified if we waste any money. If we could put in an extra $100,000 to save it, there would be critics, and our mayor and other councillors are cognizant of that.\n\u201cIf we do save it, I will be criticized and I just have to deal with that.\u201d\nThe Murray homestead consists of the house with some additions that were built over the years that aren\u2019t worth saving. It\u2019s all about the original house, according to architect Tim Ankenman, who is on the board of directors for Heritage BC, and has restored other heritage projects. Mr. Ankenman reviewed the building and said the original house was worthy of saving.\n\u201cIt would be super cool,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd it\u2019s got lots of character defining elements and all the cultural history that one could ask for.\u201d\nCouncil sent out requests for proposals, and a group of highly resourceful citizens got together and within a few days, rushed to form the Anmore Heritage Society. The group was asked to survey residents, at its own expense, on what they\u2019d like to see done with the Murray homestead. Fortunately, says interim chair Dr. Lynn Burton, it was around the time of Ma Murray Day, on Sept. 11. Of the respondents, 96 per cent were for saving the building, says Dr. Burton, a retired Simon Fraser University dean and editor of the Anmore Alternative News. She thinks that response startled the mayor and council members.\nThe Ma Murray homestead, now the Anmore Village Hall. (B.C. Government Photos)\n\u201cI don\u2019t think they expected the groundswell of support from the community that they got. I think they thought they were doing what was politically astute, which was to get requests from people who are interested in saving the building,\u201d says Dr. Burton.\nSo far, the group has self-funded their efforts to save the old house. At her own expense, Dr. Burton flew to Ottawa to meet with Heritage Canada to try to secure up to $500,000 as part of the Legacy Fund grant to save the building. Heritage BC has applied on their behalf, and the group is hopeful the funding will come through.\nConsidering the village needs a council chambers, it would be a \u201cwin win for everybody\u201d to incorporate the Murray homestead, says Mr. Ankenman.\nPart of the problem with a restoration is that it\u2019s usually costlier than a new build. Coun. Weverink says they could probably build a new village hall at around $300 per square foot, compared to $400 per square foot for a restoration.\n\u201cThere\u2019s a difference there. What I\u2019m hoping is that the heritage group can incorporate [the house] into the hall and fundraise for the difference. We could use 800 sq. ft. of open community space for meetings, garden club, yoga, that type of thing.\u201d\nFred Soofi is also a member of the Anmore Heritage Society Mr. Soofi was selected on of the RBC Top 25 Canadian Immigrants this year, alongside the author of Room, Emma Donoghue, and Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan. But he\u2019s won other awards for his decades of community service in Canada. He is a restaurateur and businessman, currently developing affordable housing for seniors.\nRendering of a proposed renovation to the Murray Homestead. (Gaetan Royer)\nHe also saves heritage buildings, a passion that started when he moved from Iran to Saskatchewan in the 1970s. He\u2019s restored five Port Moody character houses, including the 1910 Appleyard Residence, which he moved, restored, and sold to another restaurateur. It was recently moved again to make way for the Evergreen Line. Mr. Soofi, who lives in Anmore, says he acquired an appreciation of history while growing up in Iran.\n\u201cI come from a country where there is lots of heritage,\u201d he says. \u201cI have been here for 45 years, but I remember those days, I would see these [old] buildings and really enjoyed it, even as a child.\u201d\nRestoring the Murray homestead and incorporating it into a new village hall was one of the models put forth by the group. It\u2019s an obvious choice, since a village hall is already needed.\nThe house could become an entrance hall, for example. The other is to incorporate it into a new gathering place, with coffee shop and volunteer-run museum. There\u2019s been talk of moving the building, but moving any building means significant cost. Most agree it would be best to keep it at the original site. Also, the foundation has the Murrays handprints in it.\nNot everybody sees the beauty in the old building, or will understand their enthusiasm to save it, says Mr. Soofi.\n\u201cWhat they do is look at the surface. They say, \u2018but this is falling apart.\u2019 They don\u2019t appreciate the value of the history, of education for the next generation. They just look at the surface, and it costs, sure, but then you are educating. Education is not free. This is part of our education.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Tick disease study could benefit from bovine science3 weeks, 5 days ago\nIs $3m in tick disease research failing to learn from the past?\nThis bulls-eye rash, from a tick bit in the US state of Virginia, is a sign of potential tick disease and which requires immediate antibiotics as prescribed by a doctor, advocates a retired veterinarian who did his research on cattle.\nTechniques used to test cattle for tick disease might shed light on how bad bacteria manifest themselves in humans. But is anyone listening to this past experience?\nRecent federal funding to investigate tick disease in humans might miss an opportunity to solve the strange conundrum if they fail to look at lessons learned while researching cattle tick disease 50 years ago.\n\u200bEarlier this month the Federal Government announced $3 million for tick disease research in humans, with a psychological focus on unexplained syndromes typical of the disease.\nRetired NSW Department of Agriculture veterinarian Dr John Curnow is concerned the recently announced research will focus on the mental health of unwell patients rather than confirming the presence of an Australian version of Lyme disease, which is well documented in the United States.\nIn Australia health bureaucrats have given this problem a name: Debilitating Symptom Complexes Attributed to Ticks, shortening it to DSCATT.\n\u201cComplex\u201d is the key word, with victims struggling to find answers to their range of health issues from chronic fatigue and arthritis to depression but to these people their condition is real and few people in the medical profession say anything other than \u201cit\u2019s all in your head\u201d.\nDr Curnow\u2019s wife, also a vet, died of poorly diagnosed tick disease while the couple were living at Lismore. Dr Curnow recalls the actual night she was bitten by ticks, along with her dog. Three months later the fox terrier died.\n\u201cShe could never get a proper diagnosis,\u201d he said. \u201cThe root cause of the disease are pathogens in the blood.\u201d\nAs part of a team of research scientists based at the Department of Agriculture\u2019s research station at Wollongbar via Lismore in the 1960s, Dr Curnow looked at why a program carried out in the 1950s failed to eradicate invasive cattle tick.\nIt turned out the ticks during nymph stage hitched a ride on the feathers of birds, as if they were seats on a plane. However, it was during this process that Dr Curnow and his team were required to test half a million head of cattle between Grafton and the Queensland border in order to understand how three different tick borne pathogens were transmitted.\nIn total 1.5 million tests were carried out to identify the presence of two strains of Borrelia and another of anaplasma. The effectiveness of the test showed Borrelia in cattle would reproduce variants of itself \u2013 as many as 120 forms of the disease over the life of a ten year old cow. Interestingly, all variants reverted back to one type \u2013 a very invasive bacteria that if left untreated affected the brain.\nDr Curnow also found John found that relapsing fever Babesia, or Lyme disease, has similar activity to relapsing fever Borrelia in cattle.\nOf course there are differences with humans in that it takes much less time to reproduce a variant in cattle. Never-the-less Dr Curnow says his old research could be used to refine the Elisa test, which looks for Lyme\u2019s Disease in human patients.\nSadly Dr Curnow\u2019s work was never continued. He applied for a job with the CSIRO tick disease laboratory at Indoorapilly, Qld, which housed unarguably the best brains in the business, but the free spending Whitlam government cut funding and the team disbanded, the expertise lost.\nMeanwhile, all experts agree that tick disease can be prevented by removing ticks straight away. Ticks left on the skin or aggravated enough to spit their venom into their host\u2019s blood have been known to create flu like symptons. Dr Curnow advocates antibiotics as prescribed by a doctor who sympathises with the claims made by those complaining of Lyme\u2019s Disease-like complications.\u200b\nTick Awareness Australia founder, Francene Lee Taylor, blames hundreds of nymph tick bites she received while clearing Lantana on a Wilsons Creek property for triggering her on-going tick \u2013 borne diseases.\nWhile the Australian medical profession and others debate the existence of Tick Borne Disease and Lyme Disease existing in Australia, Francene has designed a Tick Awareness, Education and Prevention campaign.\nShe is writing a children\u2019s program for prevention to teach children about ticks\nTick Awareness Australia would like the council to allow us to put signs up in this area, in strategic places, warning people that it\u2019s a high-risk area for ticks.\u201d For more information visit www.tickease.com.au\nFederal funding targeted at psychological problems\nAlmost $3 million will be invested over five years for research to better understand the causes of these symptoms, with the longer-term aim of developing treatments.\nFederal Member for Page, Kevin Hogan, whose electorate covers a large area of tick disease country on the Far North Coast said: \u201cI have spoken with numerous people in our community who have had their lives, and those of their families, affected by chronic symptoms associated with tick bites, such as fatigue, arthritis, chronic pain, headaches and ongoing psychological symptoms.\n\u201cIt\u2019s clear we need targeted research to better understand the problem and to develop diagnostics and treatments for those with these symptoms.\nProfessor Peter Irwin from Murdoch University will receive more than $1.9 million for his research to determine the causes of the symptom complexes attributed to ticks (DSCATT).\nThe project brings together a national team of experienced clinicians and medical scientists to improve outcomes for patients through accurate and evidence-based information about their illness.\nThe University of Melbourne will receive more than $1 million for a research project led by Professor Richard Kanaan to develop a new treatment for DSCATT.\nThis project will develop a case definition, adapt the treatment approach for unexplained syndromes to the specifics of DSCATT, and then pilot a randomised controlled trial to test the effectiveness of the new therapy.",

        "title": "The Low-Down: Why Artificial Intelligence Adoption Is Limited By Perceived Risk vs Potential Benefit",
        "raw_content": "Why Artificial Intelligence Adoption Is Limited By Perceived Risk vs Potential Benefit\nEnterprises are still conditioned by perception of market demand to want a sure thing. Fear of costly failure surpasses belief in the upside.\nThis hesitancy is driven by financialization and lingering managerial discomfort with the implications of technological change.Successful companies are rethinking their structures and processes to update and optimize risk-reward calculations. JL\nKnowledgeWharton reports:\nMcKinsey believes AI can double the impact of other analytics and has the potential to materially raise corporate performance. (But) despite the level of investment, business adoption of AI remains limited. 40% of firms are thinking about it, 40% experiment with it and only 20% adopt AI. The reason for such reticence is that 41% of companies are not convinced they can see a return on their investment, 30% said the business case isn\u2019t there and the rest said they don\u2019t have the skills to handle AI.\nJust as electricity transformed the way industries functioned in the past century, artificial intelligence \u2014 the science of programming cognitive abilities into machines \u2014 has the power to substantially change society in the next 100 years. AI is being harnessed to enable such things as home robots, robo-taxis and mental health chatbots to make you feel better.\nA startup is developing robots with AI that brings them closer to human level intelligence. Already, AI has been embedding itself in daily life \u2014 such as powering the brains of digital assistants Siri and Alexa. It lets consumers shop and search online more accurately and efficiently, among other tasks that people take for granted.\n\u201cAI is the new electricity,\u201d said Andrew Ng, co-founder of Coursera and an adjunct Stanford professor who founded the Google Brain Deep Learning Project, in a keynote speech at the AI Frontiers conference that was held this past weekend in Silicon Valley. \u201cAbout 100 years ago, electricity transformed every major industry. AI has advanced to the point where it has the power to transform\u201d every major sector in coming years. And even though there\u2019s a perception that AI was a fairly new development, it has actually been around for decades, he said. But it is taking off now because of the ability to scale data and computation.Ng said most of the value created through AI today has been through supervised learning, in which an input of X leads to Y. But there have been two major waves of progress: One wave leverages deep learning to enable such things as predicting whether a consumer will click on an online ad after the algorithm gets some information about him. The second wave came when the output no longer has to be a number or integer but things like speech recognition, a sentence structure in another language or audio. For example, in self-driving cars, the input of an image can lead to an output of the positions of other cars on the road.\n\u201cWe have cheap motors, sensors, batteries, plastics and processors \u2026 why don\u2019t we have Rosie?\u201d\u2013Dileep George\n\u201cHer job is to bring a spot of life to your home. She provides entertainment \u2014 she can play music, podcasts, audiobooks.\u201d\u2013Kaijen Hsiao\nAt Alibaba, AI is used to boost sales. For example, shoppers of its Taobao e-commerce site can upload a picture of a product they would like to buy, like a trendy handbag sported by a stranger on the street, and the website will come up with handbags for sale that come closest to the photo. Alibaba also uses augmented reality/virtual reality to make people see and shop from stores like Costco. On its Youku video site, which is similar to YouTube, Alibaba is working on a way to insert virtual 3D objects into people\u2019s uploaded videos, as a way to increase revenue. That\u2019s because many video sites struggle with profitability. \u201cYouTube still loses money,\u201d said Xiaofeng Ren, a chief scientist at Alibaba.\nWhere did they put their money? Machine learning took 56% of the investments with computer vision second at 28%. Natural language garnered 7%, autonomous vehicles was at 6% and virtual assistants made up the rest. But despite the level of investment, actual business adoption of AI remains limited, even among firms that know its capabilities, Manyika said. Around 40% of firms are thinking about it, 40% experiment with it and only 20% actually adopt AI in a few areas.\nThere are companies that get it. Among sectors leading in AI are telecom and tech companies, financial institutions and automakers. Manyika said these early adopters tend to be larger and digitally mature companies that incorporate AI into core activities, focus on growth and innovation over cost savings and enjoy the support of C-suite level executives. The slowest adopters are companies in health care, travel, professional services, education and construction. However, as AI becomes widespread, it\u2019s a matter of time before firms get on board, experts said.",

        "title": "The 10 Best Movies of 2008 ~ Words From the Master",
        "raw_content": "This has been an interesting year for movies. Some long awaited films delivered the goods (Rambo) others fucked up royally (Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull), meanwhile lots of great comic book movies came out (three of which made this list). This list is all comprehensive, so it just horror films, it's all genres. If you are interested in me talking about horror movies, stop by the Gorezone.net messageboards, where I post under Headbanger69. You can always read my reviews for the DVD Crypt, there, too, where I write under my real name: Giovanni Deldio. Anyways, enjoy the list and see any of the movies, you have not yet, seen. By the way, if you are expecting a bunch of boring, whimpy, pussy whipped, pretentious claptrap on this list go read some other lame website or movie rag.\n10. - This direct sequel to the amazing Casino Royale is not as good as that film, but is still exciting enough to rank among the best of the Bond film series. While, some of the editing is annoying and intrusive, the climax is really exciting and rousing and Craig is, hands down, one of the best Bonds ever. Olga Kurylenko smokes the screen with her presence, and she is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most beautiful Bond girls, ever.\n9. - Neil Marshall is THE future of the genre. This movie is an awesome, fast paced, fun, ass kicking, ultra-violent love letter to movies like The Road Warrior, Mad Max, and Escape from New York, with doses of Excalibur and 28 Days Later thrown in for good measure. I would say that it is the greatest post-apocalyptic film that does not have Mel Gibson in it (yes, I like it more than the Italian movies form the sub-genre, that I have seen). Plus, lead actress Rhona Mitra is one of the sexiest heroines the screen has ever seen. Rip-roaring fun from start to finish.\n8. - Lighter in tone than the original, Guillermo Del Toro manages to make an even better movie, this time around, with this fun, funny, and fast paced fantasy/ monster flick. Ron Pearlman is good as the horror comic hero and the creatures are just so cool in this one. The FX are excellent, but this movie also has a heart, something many a blockbuster forgets. Del Toro continually proves to be one of the best directors in the horror/ dark fantasy world.\n7. - This is the crowning achievement of Pixar, their best film, yet, even better than the wonderful Finding Nemo. The fact that this stunning movie is so great, with such little dialogue is a testament to the creative team behind it. It is funny, sweet, touching, cute, and always breathtaking to look at. I actually cried at parts and laughed at others. Wall-E is one of the most endearing characters in the history of cinema.\n6. - With the death of lead star Heath Ledger and all the praise his role as the Joker was getting and the hype revolving around this film, it had a lot to live up. And, boy did it deliver and in spades! Director/ co-writer Christopher Nolan gave us one of the greatest superhero films, ever, a dark, mature, powerful, deep, and realistic take on being a superhero. By not playing it safe or for the kiddies, this movie succeeds where so many have failed. The action set pieces are impressive, the sets breathtaking, and the acting excellent. Leger gives us a terrifying, sick, and evil Joker, one of the best villains the screen has seen in quite some time. That is not to said the rest of cast did not deliver, as they pulled in great work as well. This movie has greatly raised the banner for this franchise, can another film really deliver the goods?\n5. - The best trailer of 2008 came form this super gory and fun mix of action, splatter, horror, and humor from Japan. It is the goriest movie to hit the screens since Germany's Permutos: Lord of the Living Dead (and while that film was fun, this is light years better). The movie is always light despite some fairly fucked up moments, including off-screen necrophilia! A must for gorehounds, it also has some of the hottest babes to be featured in one film this year. The hottest to me has to be the Japanese beauty who plays the yakuza wife, who wears a fucking drill bra! Amazing and my fav film from the far-East that I saw last year.\n4. - As a life long wrestling fan, I was greatly looking forward to this movie. It definitely lived up to my expectations. Rourke gives the performance of a lifetime in a movie that is touching and humorous, at differnt times. It is also, as anyone with knowledge of the wrestling biz can testify, very realistic. I hope this film gives viewers new found respect for wrestlers, as well as see how hard the fall from fame can be. Lovely Evan Rachel Wood has a small role as the daughter and from here we can see a connection to the life of Jake \"The Snake\" Roberts (in fact while this film is not based on any single wrestler, it is clearly drawn from many real life experiences they have had). Marisa Tomei is great in her role as the beautiful, MILF stripper with a good heart. I have long been a fan of the lovely Ms. Tomei, but she looks drop-dead beautiful in this one, and at 44 looks better than ever! Plus, she gets topless and wears a g-string! Not only that but with music by Accept, Scorpions, Cinderella, and Guns N' Roses, this is THE soundtrack of the year, perhaps, ever! The scene where Tomei and Rourke sign Ratt's classic \"Round and Round\" is one of the year's coolest moments.\n3. - Though, I been a life long fan of comics, I was never a fan of Iron Man, but this movie changed all of that. Today, he joins, Punisher, Spider-Man, and Batman as my absolute fav heroes. Mature, fun, smart, fast paced, exciting, and ass kicking are all words that can be used to describe this modern masterpiece. The FX are flawless and Robert Downey Jr. IS Iron Man, and while playing a rich, womanizing, alcoholic is not a stretch for the man, he more gives Tony Stark his due. Director and fanboy John Favreau has given the single greatest superhero film, ever. A perfect movie and I don't say that very often. The ending is fucking classic.\n2. - Who would ever have thought that the return of John Rambo would turn out to be not only the best one in the series, but one of the best action films ever made? I have discussed this film before, here, so I will just gone to say that this movie, the bloodiest American action film ever, holds on really well on repeated viewings. It also has a great message to it, and how many shoot 'em ups can say that they have that and are still savagely entertaining?\n1. - Inside is, along with The Descent, the best horror film to come out of Europe in years. Brutal, vicious, intense, bloody, I could go on and on with my praising of this film, but since I wrote about it here already, I will avoid repeating myself. But, here is my question, if you ain't seen last years best movie, in any genre, what the hell are you waiting for? Seriously, this movie is a future horror classic and needs to be seen by everyone who is tired of the same boring, predicable tripe that the studios dump on us each and every year and try to pass it on as a horror film.\nNow playing: Judas Priest - Devil's Child\n2008, action films, Asian horror, Doomsday, Euro Horror, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Inside, Iron Man, Quantom of Solace, Rambo, The Dark Knight, The Machine Girl, The Wrestler, Wall-E Edit\nI'm not even going to comment on Rambo being your number 2. It is your opinion, but in my opinion, it wasn't wortht he price of admission... And Matt and I saw it for FREE!!!\nThat's interesting that you thought Machine Girl had the best trailer.",

        "raw_content": "Phuket's 'Mister Big' update: former military snipers turn to mercenary killing\nPHUKET: The US 'Mister Big' arrested in Phuket on Thursday and two other ex-soldiers from the US and Germany were charged Saturday (Thailand time) with plotting to kill a US drug enforcement agent and an informant.\nSunday 29 September 2013, 12:07PM\nJoseph Manuel \"Rambo\" Hunter, 48, was arrested on Thursday, on a plane back to America on Friday, and by Saturday had been officially charged with leading a team of mercenaries in a murderous international cocaine smuggling conspiracy. Photo: Bangkok Post / Apichit Jinakul\nThe man arrested in Phuket, Joseph Hunter, went by the nickname \"Rambo\" and had trained snipers for the Iraq and Afghanistan wars before leaving the army and turning rogue, prosecutors allege.\nA law enforcement sting in Bangkok and Liberia interrupted their plans to use five ex-military snipers to protect illegal drug shipments, authorities said.\nThe charges were announced by prosecutors in Manhattan, where an indictment unsealed in federal court portrayed a trio of ex-soldiers eager to kill for money.\n\"That's fun, actually for me that's fun. I love this work,\" one was quoted as saying in court papers.\nThe documents described numerous conversations at meetings outside the United States that were recorded by Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents building their case with help from confidential sources posing as drug traffickers.\nThe defendants were charged with conspiracy counts and were held for appearances in US District Court, though it was not immediately clear who would represent them.\n\"The bone-chilling allegations in today's indictment read like they were ripped from the pages of a Tom Clancy novel,\" US Attorney Preet Bharara said in a statement. \"The charges tell a tale of an international band of mercenary marksmen who enlisted their elite military training to serve as hired guns for evil ends.\"\nThe indictment described Hunter as a contract killer and leader of the group of ex-snipers.\n\"Three of the defendants were ready, willing and eager to take cold hard cash to commit the cold-blooded murders of a DEA agent and an informant,\" Bharara said.\nHunter recruited several ex-soldiers in late 2012 and early this year to be a security team for drug traffickers, said the indictment. According to the court papers, the DEA's sources promised Hunter at a March meeting in \"an Asian country\" (known to be Thailand) that his security team would be protecting thousands of kilos of marijuana and would be seeing \"tons of cocaine and millions of dollars.\"\nAudio and video recordings of the meeting show Hunter discussing \"bonus jobs\" of contract killings, saying the men he had recruited want to do as much \"bonus\" work as possible, the indictment said.\nAccording to the indictment, Hunter served in the US Army from 1983 to 2004 before becoming a contract killer who successfully arranged several slayings. At one meeting, Hunter was captured on tape describing how he had arranged the killings of real estate agents.\nThe indictment said a DEA source posing as a drug trafficker in May proposed killing a DEA agent and a boat captain providing information to US law enforcement authorities, saying it was necessary because there was a \"leak\" within the narcotics trafficking organization.\nIn an email exchange, Hunter responded: \"My guys will handle it. ... Are you talking about both the captain and agent or just the captain?\" according to the indictment.\nAlso charged in the assassination plot were Timothy Vamvakias and Dennis Gogel, a German citizen.\nThe indictment said Vamvakias served in the US Army from 1991 to 1993 and from 1999 to 2004. He was a sergeant, serving stints in South Korea and later as a military police officer in Puerto Rico.\nGogel was in the German armed forces from 2007 to 2010, attaining the rank of corporal and receiving commendations for his sniper skills, the court papers said. He was deployed for a time in Kosovo.\nTwo other suspects, Polish citizen Slawomir Soborski, 40, and German citizen Michael Filter, 29, were arrested Wednesday in Estonia where they remain pending extradition to the United States. Soborski was a member of an elite counter-terrorism unit while serving in the Polish armed forces from 1998 to 2002 and from 2003 to 2011. He later worked as a security contractor in Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti and elsewhere, court papers said. Michael Filter served in the German armed forces from 2006 to 2009.\nTo carry out the assassination plot, Vamvakias and Gogel offered ideas and plans, including the need for machine guns, cyanide, a grenade, masks and appropriate weapons, the indictment said.\nThe court papers said Gogel provided the DEA source with two sophisticated latex facemasks that could make the wearer appear to be of another race. The masks were among items Gogel and Vamvakias brought along when they arrived in an African country on Wednesday planning to carry out the murder-for-hire plot, the indictment said.",

        "title": "Humanitarian interventions designed to stop human rights violations - Sample Essay",
        "raw_content": "Humanitarian interventions designed to stop human rights violations\nHumanitarian interventions refer to the techniques that are used to prevent or to stop the violation of human rights in a country or state in cases where the state is unable or unwilling to protect its citizens or is persecuting them. The 1990s were generally recognised as the decades in which humanitarian interventions were at the peak. The period saw the United Nations (UN) authorizing several humanitarian interventions. Critics of the humanitarian intervention maintain that nearly all the use of military force has been labelled as a humanitarian intervention (Hehir, 2013). Humanitarian interventions quickly resort to military interventions instead of relying on the military force as a last resort. States that intervene always have an ulterior motive which normally predisposes their decision to intervene. Therefore more often than not, the interventions are normally unilateral and unauthorised (Valentino, 2011, Simms & Trim, 2011). Badescu (2010) argues that everything is wrong with the manner in which the humanitarian interventions are frequently justified and executed. The principal of international law holds that the sovereignty of states should not be violated. There should never be any form of interference in the international affairs of any state. The requirement is clearly defined in article 2(4) of the UN charter which preserves the political independence and the territorial integrity of states by outlawing the use of force, threat or the use of threats against each party (Pieterse, 2016). The paper looks at the effectiveness of the humanitarian interventions in stopping an ongoing genocide.\nThe World War 2 brought about a lot of significant changes included the rise of several human rights movements and humanitarian interventions as articulated in Geneva Convention (Rauchhaus, 2009). The humanitarian interventions have been deployed in several areas in the recent past. Situations of civil strife in Libya, Syria, Egypt as well as other states have resulted in the exercise of the humanitarian interventions and have also brought about the concept of the Responsibility to protect (Western & Goldstein, 2011).Simply defined, humanitarian intervention refers to the \u201cinterference in the affairs of one state by another state or states in cases in which the most basic human rights of the people in the affected state are being violated\u201d (Western & Goldstein, 2011). Humanitarian interventions mainly focus on the obligations by states to punish or prevent grave humanitarian breaches. Grave breaches, in this case, refer to torture, inhumane treatment, willful killing, and extensive destruction of property, the willful cause of injury or great suffering or even serious injury to health or the body. Grave breaches extend to include unlawful transfer or deportation and taking of hostages (Bellamy, 2008, Finnemore, 2008).\nHumanitarian interventions have always taken the form of military aid or socioeconomic aid. The main goal of humanitarian intervention id to stop the suffering of humans and end the violation of human rights and to assist people to recover in cases where there has been a violation of human rights (Bellamy, 2008, Finnemore, 2008).\nHehir (2012) argues that humanitarian intervention is nothing more than a bad aid solution in the improvement of the problems of the intended beneficiaries. Farell relies solely on the short and long term benefits and the shortcomings of the humanitarian interventions during the Rwandan genocide. The convention on the prevention and punishment of the crimes of genocide which was formed in 1948 requires all states to either prevent or punish acts of genocide (Focarelli, 2008).The situation in Rwanda had met the definition of genocide as laid out in the convention from as early as August 1993 yet a lot of time was spent in determining whether the threshold of the killings met the definition of genocide. There was a delayed response by the international community due to criticisms that mainly came from the United States. The delay, therefore, resulted in no military action to the benefit of human rights despite the widespread killing that was witnessed in Rwanda (Kuperman & Crawford, 2014). The delay from the international community in addressing the situation in Rwanda was an evident failure to uphold the human rights as defined in Geneva human rights convention.\nThe request by Canadian General Romeo Dallaire to engage and protect innocent civilians when the war broke out was denied by the UN Secretary General Boutros Boutros- Ghali which rendered the forces of the General Romeo observers even as the massacre continued. Belgium withdrew 440 of its troops in mid-April following the murder of tens of its unarmed soldiers on April 7 by members of the presidential guard. The event was followed by an immediate withdrawal of hundreds of soldier from Bangladesh (Franck, 2010).\nMilitary aid during the Rwandan genocide was therefore virtually non-existent. The genocide eventually ended in on July 18, 1994, following the defeat of the Rwandan army by the Rwandan Patriotic front (RPF). What was more shocking was how the Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda (UNAMIR) was misused during the genocide. Acting under the Arusha peace agreement the UNAMIR were dispatched to Kigali sparking the up rise of slaughter. On April 7 the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) voted to reduce UNAMIR to a total of 250 men only (Wheeler, 2011). The. The massive reduction followed by passive rules of engagement signaled a decision by the humanitarian community against providing any form of humanitarian military intervention. This, therefore, led to the non-existent of military aid (Pattison, 2011).\nThe international community only started showing serious commitments after thousands of people had been killed in the war. Their role was not to stop the genocide but was reduced to aiding in the recovery of the war torn nation. They moved in to implement socio-economic programmes that were meant to assist the Rwandan people. The intervention by the international community was therefore very effective in providing the socio-economic aid. Rwanda becomes to be done for its robust socio-economic recovery. The change was largely associated with the intervention by the international community and the commitment to the people in the country to social and economic reforms (Pattison, 2011).\nThe victory by RPF left Rwanda with a remnant economy with no infrastructure and full of people with psychological and physical needs which needed to be addressed. The international community and the international media only sympathized with Rwanda and came to their aid after the genocide had ended (Lischer, 2007).\nIn the UN world Summit of 2005, 150 world leaders reaffirmed their responsibility to protect which would entail using all the possible means including the use of military where possible (Kimani, 2017). However, thousands of families still continued to face attacks and forced deportation or displacement. Since 2003 an estimated number of between 200,000 to 400,000 people have died. The UN agencies place the number of displaced people, refugees and other people in need of relief at 3.6 million. Many more people still continue to suffer in Eastern Democratic republic of Congo and Cote d Ivore. Such people have not seen anything in the international promise of never again that was made by the international community. Such people so no solace in the Geneva Convention (Fassin & Pandolfi, 2010, Franck, 2010).\nThe ineffectiveness of the humanitarian interventions in dealing with ongoing genocides does not stem from a lack of laws and treaties. The main problem lies in ensuring that countries fulfil their commitment. There is always the lack of the needed political will among the countries that are expected to expect with the humanitarian interventions (Kimani, 2017). Besides that, there is the lack of common vision regarding the responsibility of countries at times in which there are serious violations of human rights and humanitarian catastrophes that are caused by the conflict. Despite the there have been cases of massacres in the DRC and Liberia, the humanitarian responses to such incidences have been very tardy and hesitant. Like was the case in Rwanda, a lot of time is spent in determining whether the conflict meets the threshold for genocide before meaningful intervention can take place (Kimani, 2017, Seybolt, 2007).\nGetting members countries of the UN especially in the Security Council to make and support decisions for quick and effective intervention is always a big problem. The politics involved in the process of decision making slows the process of decision making by the UN Security Council. Different political agendas often slow down the work of the UN Security Council. It is far much easier for countries to resort to their regional organisations such as the African union to intervene in the case of conflict (Bellamy, (2008).\nA good example of the regional initiative is the African Union Mission that worked in Sudan. There was a negotiation in 2004 between the African Union, the European Union, and the UN got into negotiations with the government of Sudan to allow for the placement of the African troops in Darfur. The 7100 AU troops in Sudan reduced violence, but the numbers were not adequate to police Darfur. In 2006, it was decided that the AMIS needed more trained soldiers, trucks, helicopters, communication facilities and proper funding. The international funding for the AU mission fell short by $200 million. The inadequate funding, therefore, meant that the mission lacked the capacity and the support that was required to do the job. It was therefore almost right to say that the international community had set up the African union for failure. That is one of the reasons as to why Africa cannot solve African problems (Kimani, 2017).\nIt was unrealistic to expect the African Union to perform realistically under the circumstances within which they were working. The role of the Africa Union has therefore been reduced to trying to quell down the situation as a consensus is built for a stronger International intervention by the international peacekeepers to take control of the situation (Kimani, 2017). Getting enough resources from the Security Council is always a problem. In the case of Sudan, Mr. Egeland from the UN Security Council was quoted saying that they were overstretched for resources for peacekeeping obligations worldwide. He stated that it would be hard to get enough soldiers and that it would take up to nine months to get a fully functional UN force on the ground. The bureaucratic process and the politics of the UN Security Council made it very difficult to solve the problems that faced Sudan at that time. It was not just an easy decision of deciding whether the Africa countries could all come together and add more Soldiers to help the problem in Darfur (Bellamy, 2008, Kimani, 2017).\nDespite the fact that people may believe that humanitarian interventions may be the key to ending genocides that are not always the case. Massive crimes against humanity took place in Rwanda, DRC, and Darfur as part of ongoing wars. Measures to halt the genocide and other crimes against humanity always require the intervention of other countries in the form of relief aid to the suffering populations or in the form of mediation to put an end to the killings (Bass, 2008). The most effective intervention results from an agreement between the warring parties to sit down and solve the issue. Real agreement or consent by the parties in a conflict is positively correlated with the early success of the humanitarian interventions. The ability of the warring parties to consent makes it easier for the external players to come in and take part in a lot of activities that may rage from mediation, inquiry, negotiation, arbitration or judicial settlements (Pattison, 2010).\nIf the parties at war agree to respect the terms of the agreement, they can be instrumental in making sure that their soldiers do not bring any harm to civilians and can easily comply with demobilization and disarmament provisions which may give room for the distribution of the relief aid and allow for the resettlement of the displaced populations. Lack of consent can, however, fuel mass killing and make it very difficult for the International community to operate in a war torn country. For instance, in Sudan, the government did not cooperate properly with the African Union mission and did not agree to the deployment of the UN mission to replace the African Union (Pattison, 2010).\nFailure by rebel or militia groups to consent can also pose a great challenge. In Sudan, the pro-government militia that was dubbed the Janjaweed militia and two other rebel groups refused to participate in the peace talks. They continued to attack the civilians and obstructed the work of the humanitarian agencies (Hurd, 2011). In DRC villages undergo sporadic attacks by the militia who then immediately disappear into the jungle. Chapter seven of the UN charter gives the UN Security Council the power to authorize the use of military actions or sanctions to stop killings or genocide without the approval of the governments or military forces involved in such atrocities (Kimani, 2017). However, such force or sanctions may be opposed by certain UN member states such as China, France, Russia, the UK or the US who are members of the Security Council. The opposition may stem from either political or economic reasons (Kimani, 2017).\nIt would be very difficult to effectively respond to genocide and stop it if the vetoes are still applied. However, even if there was a full agreement among the members of the UN Security Council, It would still be important to ensure that there is a negotiates solution. Forceful military intervention could have serious consequences and may aggravate the situation. Several options including diplomatic efforts or sanctions could be employed to try and pressure a country towards accepting certain forms of intervention (Heinze, 2009).\nHumanitarian interventions have realised certain positive changes. The humanitarian agencies can rely on civilian police to assist the local forces in keeping the peace which can be a major boost towards ending an ongoing genocide. Besides that more experts are deployed to monitor humanitarian norms, criminal law and human rights by the combatants (Hehir, 2013). The humanitarian agencies also play a center stage in ending an ongoing genocide through the systematic disarmament and demobilization of ex-combatants. Humanitarian agencies can also end an ongoing genocide by ensuring that camps are placed very far from the borders and the war zones to ensure that the refugees are protected (Wheeler, 2011).\nThe humanitarian interventions gained a boost from the strengthening of the UN peacekeeping operations to stack militants from attacking civilians and to engage the combatants militarily. In Rwanda there were poor rules of engagement and the UN mission was only permitted to shoot in self-defense. The situation is different in DRC as the UN peacekeepers are allowed to confront the armed groups in a bid to ensure the safety of the civilians.\nThe UN is known to support regional or country led troops who are able to quickly respond to cases of genocide and massacres. For instance, Troops from the economic community of Wes-African States took part in stabilizing Liberia and Sierra Leone before the UN deployed its peacekeeping missions to the field. French forces played a vital role in eastern DRC and in Cote d Ivo ire. The South African troops managed to successfully lead an African mission in Burundi (Pieterse, 2016).\nThe international tribunals that are set to t prosecute crimes against humanity can send a message that people who attack and kill civilians cannot go through. Such precedence may assist in ending an ongoing genocide since the attackers will be afraid of the repercussions (Bass, 2008).\nHowever, the best technique of protecting civilians is to ensure that atrocities are stopped before they escalate into genocide. There is need to think of intervention using other means that do not necessarily involve military intervention (Paris, 2014). There is need to quickly address early warning signs to ensure that the situation does not get out of hand. There is need to take action and act on the early warning sign before leaving things to get out of hand leaving military action as the only possible solution (Pattison, 2008).\nThe international intervention in Rwanda was late and did not move with speed to act on the early warning signs. When the war started, there was no any meaningful international intervention. The US used their veto power to prevent the early humanitarian intervention. A lot of time was wasted in determining if the war met the threshold of the genocide before military aid could be deployed. Military intervention was clearly non-existent. Eventually, the humanitarian intervention only came to the aid of the country after the Genocide was over. The UN Security Council needed to have moved with speed to solve the situation in Rwanda. The African Union needed to have been given appropriate resources to move in with speed and quell the situation in Rwanda in order to stop the genocide. Alternatively, the international community needed to have acted on the early warning signs and looked for solutions to end the stalemate between fighting groups before things got out of hand. Mediation could have been one of the best strategies to try and avert the genocide (Heinze, 2009). For instance in Kenya, the international community moved with speed to quell the conflict that was quickly getting out of hand following the 2007-2008 disputed general election. The UN quickly sent in Kofi Annan and other African delegations to lead mediation efforts which stopped the war.\nIf humanitarian interventions are to stop an ongoing genocide, they must be deployed very quickly. Decisions must be made very fast and in good time to ensure that things do not get out of hand. Military action must be the last option. Dialogue, mediation, diplomacy and other dispute resolution mechanisms must be given a chance before resorting to military action. The parties at war must be given a chance to reach a consent and agree to certain terms in order to end the genocide. A negotiated solution should always be the best option since military action may result in a lot of complications.\nBadescu, C. G. (2010).

        "title": "Essential Time Management Strategies for Busy Entrepreneurs",
        "raw_content": "By Ilie Ghiciuc on August 31, 2018\nEntrepreneurship is a mindset that demands both professional and personal abilities. Launching, executing, growing and scaling your startup is a mental exercise involving business strategy, networking, research, planning, marketing, and numerous other related activities. Managing time effectively often becomes a challenge when your daily schedule is fully booked with meetings and events. Working 80 hours a week with little to no progress is a clear sign of poor time management abilities.\nTruth be told, time is life\u2019s greatest equalizer. You have the same amount of time as the world\u2019s most wealthiest and most successful CEO. The thing is, it doesn\u2019t really matter how much time you have, but how you can make the most of every minute in a 24-hour interval. In order to attain goals, you have to set some ground rules. While some entrepreneurs can\u2019t avoid distractions, others immerse themselves in working a lot but with little to no productivity.\nThe trick to managing time more effectively? Settle on a time management system and customize it. If you don\u2019t want to be included in the 92% statistic of entrepreneurs who fail, learn to make the most of the precious time you have available.\nEfficient time management goes beyond being \u201con time\u201d\nTime management has little to do with being \u201con time\u201d. It\u2019s more about having a direction and doing your best to solve emerging issues in an organized and systemized way. If the only person in charge in your startup is you, the founder, time management should revolve around the idea of what you can achieve on your own, including the amount of time required to do it.\nOn the other hand, if you have a team, your time management techniques should focus on delegating tasks. Stagnancy is a main precursor to failure, particularly if your startup is in its early stages. Before getting started, you should be completely honest throughout the process. Be aware of the things you can and can\u2019t do: assess your habits (the good and the bad), acknowledge your team\u2019s strengths, and settle on attainable deliverable in a specified timeframe.\nThe better you know your habits, the better chances you have to improve efficiency. You may like to work in the evening, or you\u2019re used to completing critical tasks early in the morning - the secret is to maximize the time you have available and focus on the time of day you feel the most productive. It\u2019s equally important to be honest as far as your capabilities are concerned. If you feel like it\u2019s in the best interest of your business to outsource tasks, then you shouldn\u2019t overthink it.\nIt\u2019s always a good idea to learn new skills and push yourself to do more. However, since time is of the utmost importance, putting the skills you already have to good use is better than trying to perform a new task that needs extra learning. Targets that are unreasonable for you and your team will undermine your startup. Being overly optimistic or miscalculating can severely impact your daily schedule if situations become tense. Both ambition and optimisms are fundamental to driving persistence and performance. But you need to have realistic goals and be honest about what the things that can and can\u2019t be done in a working day.\nThe inherent perks of a weekly agenda\nYour business should adhere to a weekly plan that outlines major commercial objectives. But, you also need a weekly battle plan to streamline workflows. It pays to have a revised agenda every 7 days in order to map out short-term problems your company may be facing. An excellent tactic is to reserve 1 hour every Friday evening and go over the tasks that need to be completed the following week.\nWhy do I need a 7-day agenda if I already my objectives clearly laid out? Because weekly planning is more specific; it is aimed at the tasks that must be completed, therefore bringing your company a step closer to attaining an end goal (the big picture). Whether you\u2019re trying to make your product market-fit, test the waters with a new demographic, or simply launch a service/product, your 7-day agenda should emphasize on the bigger picture. To make goals more manageable, break up tasks and duties so that you can navigate the process more efficiently.\nThere\u2019s literally no point in having a weekly agenda if you can\u2019t get organized. When attempting to complete more tasks than you can handle, the end result is slower progress due to a lack of focus. How do you prioritize your weekly agenda to make the most of the time you have available? FIrst, you should rank tasks and obligations in order of importance. For example: before seeking funding for your startup, a more important objective is to have a logo and website first.\nTime management goes beyond organization. It\u2019s all about identification because it\u2019s up to you to figure out what works within your company, what doesn\u2019t work, and what hinders progress. How much time do you spend on social media, engaging with potential investors and customers? Can you streamline the process, or is your staff incapable of finishing tasks fast because of your outdated software?\nIn extreme situations you may realize that your company\u2019s entire workday needs modifications. No matter what activities or events steal most of the available time from your agenda, prioritization is key. To identify \u201ctime killers\u201d make sure to keep a log with daily activities on a weekly basis; analyze the amount of time spent on each task. If one of the tasks seems to be taking too much time, reevaluate to see where you can improve.\nGet back in control. Automate tasks!\nWhen it comes to managing time effectively, entrepreneurs should live by one word: automation. Craft a detailed list with activities and tasks that take too much of your time. If you have many weekly appointments but you keep running late, an online scheduling software is a brilliant time-saver. The most common of them all: Google Calendar. Use it to set up meetings, invite clients to events, organize brainstorming sessions with the team, and more. It is an excellent approach to reducing administrative time, therefore making more room to the things that truly need all your attention.\nAnother tool that will help you get back in control of your time is Scoro. The time management app packs all the features you may need to handle tasks more efficiently on a daily basis. From tracking time and work reporting all the way to billing, project and task management, Scoro is one of the best automation tools out there. Its most interesting feature is that it combines project management with time tracking and CRM, boosting collaboration and streamlining business processes.\nSave as much energy as possible\nTime management is not always about saving time. Sure, it matters to be organized and prioritize tasks that get you closer to your end goal. But it\u2019s just as important to save energy. Allow yourself 30 minutes of meditation a day; or just take a break from your activities to go for a run. In order to have a clear mind, you need your physical strength. The startup environment is challenging, fast-paced, and filled with unexpected events that pop out of the blue. To cope with the hassle and stay productive, you need to value your energy. Practice the art of focusing on priorities, and learn to steer clear of distractions that might affect your performance.\nDon\u2019t forget to be flexible when evaluating what\u2019s happening within your company, and make adjustments of both present and future responsibilities and roles. A recent report issued by Flux highlighted that 91% of HR directors will recruit people based on their ability to cope with uncertainty and change. 60% claim that the most important characteristics of a potential employees are resilience and wellness.\nThe world of entrepreneurship seems all fun and interesting to newbie startup founders. But here comes the bad news: youth doesn\u2019t last forever. Many of you don\u2019t realize the time made available to transform a business idea into full-blown business is limited.\nTime management is not just a tool or an instrument. It\u2019s a well-thought strategy that helps you plan, organize, and execute. Rather than dream about days longer than 24 hours, you should get things done by prioritizing tasks and assignments. Although the bad news is that time flies. The good news is that you\u2019re the pilot, which means you\u2019re in control.\nSaaS Execution Map\nWe have condensed our experience and learning on more than 60 projects for global clients in developing this simple tool that increases the chances of a new digital product reach its objectives.",

        "raw_content": "These 15 women opened up about their sexual assault experiences thanks to the #metoo campaign\nTheresa Joy wears a t-shirt that says \"If you're not outraged you're not paying attention.\"\nAt the Women's Convention in Detroit last year, women shared their stories of sexual abuse and harassment.\nMany said that the #MeToo movement helped give them the courage to speak up.\nThey hope that talking about the issue will help prevent more people from staying silent.\nIn Hollywood and around the world, two simple words have given victims of sexual assault and harassment the courage to speak out against their alleged abusers: me too.\nAt the Women's Convention in Detroit, a gathering run by the same people who organized the Women's March, 15 brave women shared their stories of sexual abuse and survival and talked about how the #MeToo movement helped them find the courage to speak out.\nHere are their powerful statements.\n\"Let's lift each other up instead of pushing each other down.\"\nTheresa Joy.\n\"Women have been taught that sexual harassment or anything sexual or abusive towards them is just a part of being a woman, it's just something that we live with, that we accept that we have to push through or push down and go on with as a part of life. The #MeToo movement is just another part of the women's movement that we're finally coming together and saying let's lift each other up instead of pushing each other down... I think it's changing the entire future for women that the younger generation are seeing this and saying 'Wait. That guy shouldn't be talking to me like that. I'm not going to let that happen to me in the club. He shouldn't be touching me in this way...' My daughter is 19 and I'm proud of what's happening with the #MeToo movement because I feel that it's going to make her safer and stronger. Just to have that on a huge scale right now, that it's not okay to be harassed and raped and abused.\"\n\u2014 Theresa Joy, 39\n\"I didn't realize how many other people didn't realize and were not aware that there was such a large community of us.\"\nMaya Helferty\n\"I've always been aware that most women, if not all, and tons of other people experience sexual harassment and assault. I've always been really open that I've had those experiences throughout my life. But I didn't realize how many other people didn't realize and were not aware that there was such a large community of us.\"\n\u2014 Maya Helferty, 25\n\"My #MeToo experience prompted me to get involved in local organizations.\"\nApril Slusser.\n\"My #MeToo experience prompted me to get involved in local organizations to help disenfranchised women who have been sexually assaulted or victims of human trafficking or domestic violence.\"\n\u2014 April Slusser, 24\n\"I feel that when you bring those dark things out into the light they don't have any power anymore.\"\nJill Marklin.\n\"I am a part of the #MeToo movement like every other woman that I know, whether they recognize it or not. I starting recognizing years ago that this is something I experience on an everyday basis, sometimes in very unconscious ways and there have been times in my life when it has been very conscious. I'm now able to talk about experiences that I didn't realize were happening at the time and I want to be vocal about it because I feel that when you bring those dark things out into the light they don't have any power anymore and that it will allow other people to bring that out too and to begin healing and to begin fighting back against those experiences. I was really lucky, if you want to call it lucky, that I never experienced rape, never experienced anything that violent. But it's everyday fear, walking in the streets, being called at, not wanting to be called at. I've had different guys, just being out, trying to force me to dance with them, to touch them. I've had men call me a bitch or I had one man stomp on my foot in L.A. when I said I didn't want to be around him, those are violent. Things that men never really have to think about but we, as women, are taught. When I was very young, my mom started telling me: 'Be alert wherever you are. Make sure you carry your keys between your fingers...' As women, it's second nature now but it shouldn't have to be.\"\n\u2014 Jill Marklin, 40\n\"It's weird to say that having a hashtag behind you gives you strength, but it does.\"\nAshleigh Strange.\n\"When I first saw the hashtags I didn't think that it applied to me because I realize now that it's easy to ignore when it's happening to others and it's almost easier to ignore when it's happening to you because it's just something that you don't think that you're big enough, you don't think you're strong enough. It's weird to say that having a hashtag behind you gives you strength but it does; it's weird but it does.\"\n\u2014 Ashleigh Strange, 29\n\"I spent 20 years not telling anyone about it.\"\nPam Akerstrom.\n\"I spent 20 years not telling anyone about it and I'm glad that there's an opportunity for people to speak today.\"\n\u2014 Pam Akerstrom, 63\n\"Just because you're dating them or you're married to them does not mean that it is not sexual assault.\"\nHeather Latzko.\n\"I want to remind everyone that rape is not the only form of sexual assault, and just because you're dating them or you're married to them does not mean that it is not sexual assault.\"\n\u2014 Heather Latzko, 22\n\"I've had several #MeToo experiences in my life.\"\nBrenda Siegel.\n\"I've had several #MeToo experiences in my life, but one was particularly difficult and aggressive in my relationship with my son's father. I never really spoke out about it until two weeks ago and I'm really grateful to have the opportunity to not be holding that inside my body anymore.\"\n\u2014 Brenda Siegel, 40\n\"The #MeToo campaign has really helped people to feel that they are not alone.\"\nNancy Stalnaker.\n\"I think it is fantastic that women are deciding that the people who deserve the shame are not the victims of sexual assault but the perpetrators of sexual assault. The #MeToo campaign has really helped people to feel that they are not alone.\"\n\u2014 Nancy Stalnaker, 35\n\"I was sexually assaulted twice in college; once by a boyfriend, once by a friend, and it wasn't something that I really talked about.\"\nJenna Kreider.\n\"I was sexually assaulted twice in college; once by a boyfriend, once by a friend, and it wasn't something that I really talked about. I will talk about it if it's something people ask about but I'm generally not open with it. This #MeToo campaign really helped me to vocalize that with other people who I know have also gone through the same experience which is really great.\"\n\u2014 Jenna Kreider, 24\n\"I feel like if we all talk about it, that's how we can end it.\"\nLaura Chapman.\n\"I have been assaulted by men from a very young age and my #MeToo story is almost my entire life up until about 30, when I started aging out of it. I feel like if we all talk about it, that's how we can end it. The voice gives us power.\"\n\u2014 Laura Chapman, 40\n\"When I was 30, I was sexually harassed by a boss.\"\nJennifer Childs.\n\"When I was 30, I was sexually harassed by a boss. He was feeling me up in the car without my consent and it was one of those moments where I chose to speak up and it was really hard. I remember going to my female boss at the company and telling her about it and the only thing that they managed to do is that they took me off his team and then she proceeded to tell me that I was stupid for putting myself in that situation. Three years later he harassed somebody else and because there was a file they fired him.\"\n\u2014 Jennifer Childs, 39\n\"I was sexually abused as a child.\"\nSiyobin Blanco.\n\"I was sexually abused as a child and all the way growing up and it took me a really long time to recognize that, so when I saw this campaign I thought that it was really important that other people know that that's something that exists, with children as well, so people can learn to recognize the signs and recognize it at a young age.\"\n\u2014 Siyobin Blanco, 23\n\"I have been blessed with the courage to talk about my experiences.\"\nKadi McDonald.\n\"I have been blessed with the courage to talk about my experiences and be able to talk about them and this campaign was really awesome to help others do that. The recognition from family and friends that it's happening to people that they love; it's happening to everyone. I'm the most basic person you'll ever meet and so to have something so atrocious occur is very surprising for people.\"\n\u2014 Kadi McDonald, 30\n\"When I saw the #MeToo hashtag I was just coming to terms with my sexual assault.\"\nSamantha Hanahentzen.\n\"When I saw the #MeToo hashtag I was just coming to terms with my sexual assault. It happened when I was in middle school by one of my teachers. It took me a while to come forward with what had happened to me and then when I went to the administration I was told I didn't have enough evidence to prove anything and I should just keep quiet about it because I and the school could be sued for slander if I went public with my experience. It was really silencing because when I was being assaulted it was that stereotypical line of 'let's keep this between me and you.' And then when I found the courage to come out I was told again 'let's keep this quiet.' So for me too, it was a way to have a voice and it was a way for me to see that I'm not the only one that has gone through this and that women all around the world have all experienced the same thing.

        "raw_content": "Brown & Wallace: A tale of two receivers\nLATROBE \ufffd It's easy to bash Mike Wallace for being stupid, selfish and greedy. But for now, let\ufffds not even think about the Steelers\ufffd wide receiver who is not in camp.\nLet\ufffds focus on Antonio Brown, who\ufffds way too young to be a legend but nonetheless one of the most astonishing success stories in franchise history.\nIt\ufffds remarkable to see just how far Brown has come. As a high school senior in a crime-infested section of Miami, he was temporarily a teenager without a home.\nHis father had long been estranged from the family and when his mother remarried when Antonio Brown was 16, she basically put him out of the house. As he bounced around from friend\ufffds house to friend's house, he was in essence homeless for several months.\nBut now, Brown can buy a dream home or two whenever and wherever he wants.\nOn Friday, the Steelers rewarded Brown with a six-year contract worth $42.5 million that included an $8.5 million signing bonus.\nThere is justice in this world.\nThis once-poor kid who was the Steelers\ufffd Most Valuable Player last year is now set for life.\nAnd he was so happy and yet so humble Saturday when asked his good fortune.\n\ufffdAll I can do is work to give them my best as long as I\ufffdm here,\ufffd he said softly.\nBrown, who turned 24 on July 10, came to Pittsburgh two years ago as a sixth-round draft pick out of Central Michigan. Since then, he has only started three pro games. But he\ufffds a tireless worker who\ufffds found ways to help the Steelers win as a pass catcher and kick-return specialist.\nLast year when Wallace led the team in catches (72) and receiving yards (1,193), Brown was right behind (69 catches for 1,109 yards). Wallace went to the Pro Bowl as a receiver. Brown went for his dazzling skills bringing back punts and kickoffs.\n\ufffdThe first year, watching him practice, you knew that this kid was going to have a pretty good career,\ufffd general manager Kevin Colbert said asked when how the Steelers could pay so much for a third-year player with only three career starts.\nAs far as Wallace, there\ufffds no news on his holdout.\nImagine how he feels right now. He supposedly turned down a five-year deal worth $50 million because he believes he\ufffds worth more. But that greed is going to cost him dearly. It\ufffds hard to imagine him getting that kind of money now from the Steelers.\nEven if he does sign his $2.7 million tender and report to camp soon, there are no guarantees he\ufffdd even be offered the kind of money Brown got.\n\ufffdEverybody who has their hand in the pile is willing and capable,\ufffd Brown said. \ufffdThe men who are going to be here are going to give their all. When Mike gets here, we will embrace him.\ufffd\nTime will tell how Wallace will be received if and when he ends his holdout. But in the meantime, the Steelers sure have embraced Brown. They're paying him more money than he could have ever imagined.",

        "raw_content": "Prof. Yi Tan\nMain gate of the campus of\nThree visitors from Tokyo Tech with students of\nthe Japanese class at Dalian\nI studied in Tokyo Tech from January 1991 to June 1993 and received my doctorate in 1993. Then, after working at the Japan Ultra-high Temperature Materials Research Institute for several years I went to the USA, and worked in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of California, Los Angeles. In Sept. 2005 I returned to China and was given a chair as a professor at Dalian University of Technology. Since 2005 I have been promoting cooperation between Dalian University of Technology and Tokyo Tech becomes as part of my work.\nIn China I initiated research on materials for solar cells, and as a result of the hard work with my colleagues and students the new research laboratory was authorized as a key laboratory of Liaoning province. My study and working experience overseas have played an important role in making my laboratory a platform for international collaboration. Many researchers from Japan and USA have visited my laboratory.\nIn 2007, base on my proposal a Japanese class was set up in our department. The curriculum for this class is based on close consultation with staff at the department of metallurgy of Tokyo Tech, and some courses are given by staff from Tokyo Tech. This class provides means for the students to learn about cutting-edge from renowned researchers from Japan as well as providing opportunities for Dalian students to visit Japanese universities.\nI spent a fruitful time at Tokyo Tech studying for my doctoral thesis under the guidance of Tomoo Suzuki and Yoshinao Mishima. I recall that during this period I was impressed by the scrupulous attitude of Japanese researchers towards scientific research, which affected my attitude towards research, work and life. I hope through my efforts, more students will have chances to experience the academic atmosphere at Tokyo Tech, and that collaboration between our two universities will become even more fruitful.",

He told me he'd just dropped Prince George off at school and he didn't want to go. Sounds a bit like mine really,\" she added.\nDuring his visit to the town, the Duke played a game of table football with users of a mental health service and received mini MK Dons football shirts for his two children, despite the fact he's an Aston Villa fan.\n\"There is one rule in my house but that's it,\" he joked.\nAmy Humphreys, health and fitness leader for the service, said: \"We gave him shirts with George and Charlotte written on the back but we didn't have a blank one yet for the 'bun.'\"\nFollowing his son's first day at school, Prince William revealed his first day went \"well,\" after his schoolbag revealed the pupil would be known as George Cambridge at school.\n\"It went well. There was one other parent who had more of an issue with their children so I was quite pleased I wasn't the one,\" he added.\nDon't worry George, you only have another 12 more years of school to get through.\nPrince George Is Off to a New School\nPrince George Won't Be Allowed a BFF\nPrince George's First Day of School\nPrince Charles on His Grandson Starting School\nGeorge's First Day of School",

Why wasn't it on your site?\nA: Two possibilities: one, you beat us to it (!), or two, we judged that piece of news to be speculative or not corresponding to a specific policy pledge our site is tracking. We don\u2019t intend to report on each and every rumor or statement, but instead to track progress (or lack thereof) towards specific promises made by the Trump campaign and administration.\nQ: Something important and relevant to your tracker happened hours ago, and you still haven\u2019t posted an update. What\u2019s up with that?\nA: Track Trump was not created to break news, we are not journalists and there are plenty of excellent outlets doing that already! Before we update our tracker, we are committed to finding and providing you with accurate information sourced directly from the federal government that demonstrates specific steps that have been or will be taken towards one of the policies we are tracking.\nQ: Will you be tracking the impact of Trump\u2019s policies?\nA: We see ourselves as just one tool in the toolkit of an informed citizenry. We provide information on the progress made towards specific policies, and we certainly hope that others will take it upon themselves to measure and track their impact if they are implemented.\nQ: What's the difference between an \u201cupdate\u201d and a \u201croundup?\u201d\nA: An \u201cupdate\u201d is posted whenever the administration takes a step towards accomplishing a specific policy promise. It may be accompanied by a change in the color of the icon next to that promise on our site. \u201cRoundups\u201d are posted, tweeted, and emailed every evening and summarize the policy-related events of the day. While updates only occur when concrete policy changes are made, roundups are posted every day and include news and events that could potentially impact policy in the future.\nQ: How do you decide what to link to?\nA: When we update the tracker, we link to documents from official government websites whenever possible. If there is a delay in an official document being available, we may link to an unedited transcript or a copy hosted elsewhere. In our roundups, we link to relevant videos, articles, social media posts, or other sources that may help provide context to the events of the day.\nQ: The Trump campaign promised to ______. Are you tracking that?\nA: We try to stick to promises that were made repeatedly or as part of a specific plan or proposal like the Contract with the American Voter. We recognize that campaign rhetoric and actual policy proposals can be difficult to untangle, and we welcome your suggestions if you feel something significant is missing.\nQ: I have a great idea for a new feature! Will you add it?\nA: Not necessarily! But we love this sort of feedback, and we have made certain adjustments based on user suggestions.",

        "raw_content": "Cardiac Prosthetic Market\nCardiac Prosthetic Devices Market (Mechanical Heart Valves, Tissue Heart Valves, Transcatheter Heart Valves, Implantable Pacemaker and External Pacemaker) - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019\nNorth America Powers Cardiac Prosthetic Market Owing to its Advanced Healthcare Infrastructure\nCardiac prosthetics are chronic alternatives that replace a damaged or diseased part in the body.Cardiac prosthetic devices are used in the treatment of blockages in heart valves. Implantation of cardiac prosthetic devices is being increasingly accepted as one of the common procedures due to a rise in the number of patients suffering from valvular diseases. Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT), prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE), mechanical hemolytic anemia and thromboembolism are some of the complications that involve the failure of primary valves.\nFurthermore, these devices tend to improve the quality of life by reducing the morbidity and mortality rate by replacing diseased valves. It is been estimated that more than 60,000 patients undergo heart valve replacement in the U.S. every year. Thus, the usage and acceptance of cardiac prosthetic devices is on risemainly due to technological advances and better performance. Escalation in cardiac disorder prevalence is contributed by the factors such as rise in geriatric population, high obesity epidemic and rapidly changing lifestyle. The global cardiac prosthetic devices market was valued at USD 2,945.3 million in the year 2012 and is expected to record a growth rate of 8.7% during the forecast period from 2013 to 2019, to reach an estimated value of USD 5,290.0 million by 2019.\nThe cardiac prosthetic devices market can be analyzed by the types of heart valves and pacemakers. The various types of heart valves currently available are mechanical heart valves, tissue heart valves and transcatheter heart valves. These devices are used to replace the affectedheart valves in patients. Heart valve disorders can arise from three types of malfunction: regurgitation, stenosis and atresia. A heart valve disease, if not treated in time, can lead to various heart diseases such as stroke, heart failure, cardiac arrest and blood clots. Rising geriatric population, changing lifestyle and increasing partnership among vendors are the factors influencing the growth of the heart valves market globally. Pacemakers are further categorized as implantable pacemaker and external pacemaker. Pacemakers are cardiac prosthetic devices that assist in controlling abnormal heart rhythms. These devices are implanted in patients suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, a heart disorder featured by an uneven pattern of heartbeats.\nGeographically, North America accounts for the largest percentage share of the global cardiac prosthetic devices market accounting for over35% of the total market. This is justified by the presence of technologically updated infrastructure and well trained healthcare professionalsin this region compared to other regions. In addition, rising prevalence of cardiac diseases and established healthcare policies has further augmented the growth and development of cardiac prosthetic devices market in this region.Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to record high growth rate owing to increased participation of respective governments in improving the overall healthcare sector and huge untapped potential in these regions.

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb News \u00bb The Voice of the CISO: Interview with Robb Reck\nThe Voice of the CISO: Interview with Robb Reck\nLast week, we interviewed Brian Engle, the Chief Information Security Officer and Cybersecurity Coordinator for the State of Texas, and discussed with him the importance of communication in shaping cybersecurity as an ongoing management concern that businesses everywhere need to appreciate.\nAs part of our ongoing \u201cThe Voice of the CISO\u201d series, we now interview Robb Reck, an Information Security and Risk professional who currently serves as Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer for Pulte Financial Services and is the acting Vice President of the Denver chapter of ISSA.\nTripwire: What are your business priorities, and how do they relate them to your cyber security efforts?\nReck: As information security professionals, it is our obligation to learn the language of business. That is our foremost priority, even if it is not exactly common knowledge. In today\u2019s industry, we know that there are many individuals who are well versed in security but who do not understand business, and that is the wrong way to go about it. First, we must become experts in understanding our business\u2019s strategy; we must familiarize ourselves with the drivers and success criteria that define our business\u2019s mission. Once we understand those factors, we can then build a security plan around those stated goals.\nT: In your opinion, what is the single most important component in cyber security success?\nR: The single most important component to cyber security success is developing a risk culture where people think about security as a risk decision and not as a \u201cyes/no,\u201d \u201cpass/fail\u201d binary. That shift in thought is generally not easy for security people. But in business, we have to understand that hardly anything is black and white. For instance, if a company needs to bring in a third-party to review their compliance with respect to a certain regulation, the Board of Directors needs to not only weigh the costs of hiring one company over another, but they also have to judge whether a specific candidate will do the proper due diligence when analyzing their data and controls. None of these decisions are easy to make. However, once we understand the risks inherent in making these decisions, we can approach each choice with better information and greater care.\nUltimately, cyber security success depends on how much responsibility we take for our decisions. And part of that is our ability to understand risk, not to mention exploring how security and risk interact.\nT: How does cybersecurity effectively align to the business?\nR: Security is integrally tied to the business because at the end of the day everyone acts according to self-interest. What executive wouldn\u2019t worry about how a cyber attack might affect their business\u2014or their job\u2014after hearing that Target fired its CEO following the 2013 breach? People are self-interested, and they don\u2019t want a breach on their records. But it\u2019s more complicated than that. In order to adequately implement a security program, they need to understand what\u2019s important for their business and what the security implications are for each decision they make.\nT: How literate are your executives about cyber security, and how does it affect how you communicate with them?\nR: My executives are well versed in risk vs. reward, though they have not incorporated a security component into that metric too often in the past. However, that is beginning to change. Over the last year, the Board of Directors has begun asking for security briefings, and the executives below them have begun to show an interest in understanding the language of security and what my security teams are doing. This allows me to go deeper into the security side of things, which would not have been possible before.\nWhat we\u2019re seeing is the effect Target and all of these high-profile cyber attacks have had on the way in which companies view security. The most recent example is Sony, which demonstrated that security incidents can threaten business assets besides financial data. With intellectual property at stake, business executives need to start paying attention, and that\u2019s what I\u2019m beginning to see happen.\nT: What questions do you get asked, and how often? Are you confident in responding to them?\nR: In my business, I frequently am asked \u201cAre we secure?\u201d This question implies a limited understanding of security on the part of the individual who asks it, for it revisits security as a \u201cyes/no\u201d binary. Echoing what I stated earlier, security is a thing you do and not a thing you have. It is a journey, not a destination. I therefore focus on making progress; I\u2019m always working to make my business more secure.\nWith this in mind, a better question to ask would be, \u201cAre we managing our risks appropriately?\u201d To this, I would answer conservatively. And I should. After all, there\u2019s so much out there, and there\u2019s a lot more to be done. If the NSA is able to penetrate all of these high-profile tech giants, there\u2019s nothing that can prevent it from doing the same to my business. In light of rest of my industry, I can answer in the affirmative, but I would still like our progress to be moving faster.\nT: Which departments do you work with to accomplish your goals?\nR: I work with the GC, CFO, CEO, COO, and all of their key lieutenants who do the work. Success in business is directly influenced by the amount of personal capital and trust you establish with others, so I try to maintain great relationships with all areas of the company.\nA few allies merit specific mention, however. Throughout the years, I have found the best ally in shaping my business\u2019s risk management conversation to be the legal team. They understand liability, due care, and risk. Sure, they have a limited understanding of security, but they readily respect it as a concept.\nAnother ally has been my business\u2019s privacy and security board, a partnership of sorts that acts as the communication vessel to and from security for the business. Non-security people sit in with me on meetings, during which I brief them on my team\u2019s work, discuss the security impact of different decisions, and ask for their opinion on risk management and business priorities. They then go back to their teams and sell my security message, an exchange which provides me with excellent feedback regarding how effectively my security plans are sticking.\nT: What does your business look like in three years, and what are you doing to prepare for that?\nR: I cannot comment on that directly. What I can say is that in my business, an architecture committee meets four times a year to discuss business strategy. It is made of a business priorities architect, an application development architect, an infrastructure architect, and myself as a security architect. Together, we discuss where we would like the business to go based on a number of assumptions, which oftentimes includes operating on the same business model for the next five years and continuing to service customers from a particular standpoint. Security is an integral part of this process, but it does not constitute all of it. At the end of each meeting, we take our results and feed them back to the executive team.\nT: Do you think anyone in particular is doing cyber security right in today\u2019s world and why?\nR: Everyone could be doing more, but the ones who are doing it the best are approaching security from a risk-management perspective. This involves roping in key stakeholders and making sure they are aware of the risks, as well as ensuring that a strong financial commitment supports wise investment. As we should all know by now, cyber security is more than just buying tools. That has never gotten teams much bang for their buck, and it never will.\nThe Voice of the CISO: Interview with Amar Singh\nThe Voice of the CISO: Interview with Thom Langford\nThe Voice of the CISO: Interview with Brian Engle\nTags CISO, Pulte Financial Services, Robb Reck",

        "title": "Calling For Industry Specifications Standard - Twice",
        "raw_content": "Calling For Industry Specifications Standard\nOne of the challenges consumers face when researching and subsequently purchasing consumer electronics products is understanding the many technology terms inherent to these devices.\nOnce performing their research, usually online, to gain at least a basic understanding of the product they are about to purchase, they are then faced with the question of why speeds, feeds, and specifications can appear so different between manufacturers while the performance appears to be comparable. Consumers trust that their car is running 60 mph when the speedometer reaches that mark, but what if each car manufacturer had a different standard for measuring speed? Could you imagine the influx in speeding tickets?\nWithin the LCD TV space, some of the specifications seem a bit subjective, while others represent technology that no consumer could reasonably discern with the naked eye. Viewing angle, for example, represents a specification that a consumer can at least observe by walking a semicircle in front of the TV to see how well the picture looks at different angles. However, if a consumer reads the specifications such as response time, or contrast ratio, or dynamic contrast ratio, how are they to know if the device performs to this specification? It is difficult to tell.\nWhile writing this blog, I googled the words \u201cwhat is dynamic contrast ratio\u201d and 1,340,000 results came up. The very first link takes you to the Wikipedia definition for contrast ratio, which is as follows: \u201cThe contrast ratio is a measure of a display system, defined as the ratio of the luminance of the brightest color (white) to that of the darkest color (black) that the system is capable of producing. A high contrast ratio is a desired aspect of any display, but with the various methods of measurement for a system or its part, remarkably different measured values can sometimes produce similar results.\u201d\nIt further states: \u201cContrast ratio ratings provided by different manufacturers of display devices are not necessarily comparable to each other due to differences in method of measurement, operation, and unstated variables. Manufacturers have traditionally favored measurement methods that isolate the device from the system, whereas other designers have more often taken the effect of the room into account.\u201d\nIt\u2019s the part about different manufacturers utilizing different methods of measurement that represents the basis of this blog. In the near term, representatives from a few of the consumer electronics manufacturers, including myself on behalf of Sharp, will present a white paper to the Consumer Electronics Association, calling for a standardization of the manner in which the various performance specifications are measured. There are some who believe this is in the best interests of the consumer, and I agree with this assessment. While it may be difficult for most consumers to actually tell that their device is delivering a dynamic contrast ratio of 50,000:1, at least they would take comfort knowing that there is consistency when they are comparing one TV to another.\nRecently, other trusted advisors and reviewers of technology products have also been vocal questioning the consistency of the manner in which performance specifications are derived. There are multiple variables that go into the measurement of performance specifications. These are typically complex measurements and/or calculations. Most consumers will never know or understand what went into the process of deriving this numerical value; however, they should at least know that there is consistency in the manner in which the manufacturing community presents its products to the end user. This will ensure that the consumer has the knowledge they need to make the most informed, and fair purchasing decision.\nContrast Ratio &#8212; Should Manufacturers Agree On A Measurement Standard?\nA Standard(s) CTIA\nObama Demographics: Lessons For Our Industry\nSmart Business Tips For Dealers\nAn Open Letter To Best Buy CEO Hubert Joly With An Industry P.S.",

At the end of November, we went on a Caribbean Disney Cruise as part of my Mum\u2019s 70th birthday celebrations. We have cruised with Disney before. We did a Mediterranean cruise on the Disney Magic when the twins were 18 months-old and we all loved it. We were excited about sailing on the Disney Fantasy, which is a bigger boat than the Magic. We flew from Manchester with Virgin. The flight was pretty good and\u2026\nI\u2019ve debated whether to post about this subject for a while now. My blog is basically a place to store all our memories, so that the kids can read them all when they get older. It\u2019s basically their journey. Generally I try and record the special memories, the nice happy ones. After all we live in an Instagram world where we always present our best side to the world and it\u2019s good to be positive. However, everyone\u2019s journey has ups and downs and if I don\u2019t record it all then I\u2019d feel dishonest and like I\u2019m saying I\u2019m ashamed of\u2026\nAt the weekend, we went down south to stay with our friends, Emil and Richard. They live in Hemel Hempstead and we regularly go and stay with them for the weekend. In fact, last time we went down I made a little video on our stay, which you can see here. The reason for this trip was to celebrate their little boys second birthday. They had planned a party on the Sunday, so we decided to make a weekend of it and go down on the Friday night and stay with them for two nights. Oscar has recently been covering\u2026\nExcitement is starting to build in our house, as we are off on holiday for two weeks at Easter! We\u2019re going on a caribbean cruise and we can\u2019t wait. Now the shops are starting to stock their new collections, I\u2019ve started to think about any bits we need to buy, particularly for the kids. On holiday we\u2019ll no doubt be spending lots of time on the beach and swimming in the pools on the ship, so it\u2019s important to choose the right swimwear for everyone \u2013 the boys are particularly in need of some new swimwear. Although boys are not much choosy when\u2026\nAt the beginning of February the twins turned four! I know everyone says it, but I can\u2019t quite believe how fast it\u2019s gone since they were born. I remember it like it was yesterday and yet in September my two babies will actually be starting school! I had booked the day off work and we spent the day eating cake (mainly me) and going crazy at soft play (mainly them), where we also met Simon for lunch (he didn\u2019t have enough holiday left to have the day off).

        "raw_content": "Reconstructing the building construction industry\nThe building construction industry has a significant impact on the environment due to the fuel required to take workers and materials to individual work sites and because workers and because of a surprising waste of building materials on construction sites. Some estimates suggest there are nearly 200 vehicle trips to one home during the framing and roofing process alone.\nMohamed Al-Hussein, a professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering who holds the NSERC Industrial Research Chair in the Industrialization of Building Construction is revolutionizing the industry and virtually eliminating waste.\nBy designing a process in which five three-storey student dormatories were built in 51 days at a U.S. college Al-Hussein and his industrial partners proved there are enormous efficiencies to be gained by prefabricating buildings and building them modularly. Entire sections of the student dorms\u2014from flooring and fixtures to exterior brick finishes\u2014were assembled at a factory more than 100 km from the construction site, delivered to the campus and lifted into place with cranes.\nA project that would have taken about two years using conventional construction practices had been completed in less than two months. \u201cPeople went away on vacation and when they came back 10 days later five new buildings were finished,\u201d Al Hussein says.\nWith a goal of producing net-zero homes by 2015, Edmonton-based homebuilder the Landmark Group of Builders has incorporated much of Al-Hussein\u2019s research, prefabricating more and more components of its building projects in its factory. Landmark CEO Reza Nasseri calls industrialization \u201ca game changer\u201d for his company and the industry.\n\u201cIt would sound like an exaggeration if I told you how much waste we have eliminated,\u201d he said. \u201cIn our factory, waste has disappeared. I am pretty sure this will change everything in North America.\u201d\nMohamed Al-Hussein",

        "raw_content": "Christmas Betting Specials\nThe Festive Season will soon be upon us so this is a good time to get involved with the Christmas betting markets which are up and running and already have some interesting options. There are some popular bets available at this time of year and for many, this is where novelty betting really started.\nSome of these markets are very traditional and pre-date the internet by a long way so here\u2019s what you can look forward to if you want to try your luck.\nThe question of will the UK experience a White Christmas comes up every year and this is one area of novelty betting that has been with us for decades. The long-established bookies such as Ladbrokes and William Hill have offered a market for a White Christmas for many years and once again, they are at the forefront of things for 2017.\nThe first point to note however is that you should check the rules very carefully and they may vary depending on which bookmaker you use. The internet has changed things to an extent and whereas, in the past, a White Christmas was confirmed if a single snowflake fell on the roof of the London Weather Centre on December 25th, it\u2019s quite different now.\nThe bookies that we\u2019re going to look at now offer markets for snowfall in UK cities and beyond and the rules are that snow has to be recorded at that city\u2019s main airport. So, even if there is snow on the ground that has fallen earlier in the month, that won\u2019t count if there isn\u2019t any fresh snowfall on Christmas Day.\nHaving cleared that up, let\u2019s take a look at our betting options for a White Christmas 2017.\nPaddy Power have given us our widest set of available cities and they start with a number of Canadian options. Clearly snow at Christmas is more prevalent in Canada and that\u2019s further evidenced by the fact that Winnipeg is at odds of 1/33 to see snowfall on Christmas Day.\nMoving through the country you can back Montreal at 1/9, Toronto at 3/10 and Vancouver at a price of Even Money.\nFrom here, you can head across to Great Britain where the prices are very different depending on where you may be in the country. Scotland has seen some heavy early snowfall in November and long range forecasts, predicting further wintery conditions, have seen odds in some Scottish cities start to tumble.\nAt this point, Ladbrokes also start to get involved with the market and Aberdeen, in the far north of the country, has the lowest price for any city in the UK of 7/4. That\u2019s with Ladbrokes and the same bookmaker is offering odds of 2/1 on the capital, Edinburgh.\nPaddy Power then get involved with some of the smaller Scottish locations and they have a best price of 3/1 on Dundee and they round off the coverage of Scotland with odds of 10/3 on Glasgow.\nNow we move further down into England and most bettors\u2019 eyes will be on London which has always been the traditional focus for this bet. Paddy Power are offering odds of 4/1 on snowfall at Heathrow Airport on December 25 but Ladbrokes have the much better price here of 6/1.\nElsewhere Newcastle, in the far north east of the country, has the lowest price of any city in England and this option comes in at best odds of 3/1 with Ladbrokes. Manchester is close behind however and a location known for high rainfall is available at 7/2 with Paddy Power if that rain should turn to snow on Christmas Day.\nOther areas on offer for this bet include Leeds at 6/1 with Ladbrokes, Cardiff at 5/1 with Paddy Power and Belfast at 5/1 with Paddy Power.\nAll of those prices have shortened to an extent in the wake of updated predictions but anyone who has lived in the UK for any length of time has learnt not to take the weather forecast too seriously. As for the stats, these show that for 38 of the last 54 years, at least one snowflake has fallen in the UK so those are encouraging figures and it may therefore just be a question of finding the exact British city.\nIf an artist scores a Christmas number one then they are remembered forever, no matter how big or small their musical career may prove to be. It doesn\u2019t matter if they were one hit wonders, if they were number one at Christmas then they will never be forgotten.\nBetting on which act will have the number one single at Christmas time is another popular pastime that dates back to pre-digital times and there is a busy market again for 2017.\nIn recent years, the market has seen a flurry of late activity and this is largely due to the intervention of a certain TV \u2018talent\u2019 show. The X Factor traditionally concludes in early December and the winner subsequently releases a CD single just in time for Christmas. This is seen as a cynical approach by some and campaigns have subsequently been introduced to get alternative songs climbing up the charts.\nAs a result, 2009 saw the unlikely Festive success of Killing in the Name by Rage Against the Machine but the odds setters have also reacted by taking some of the X Factor contestants\u2019 success into account so this is very much a good time to consider the market and see if we can get some early ante post value.\nOnce again, the list of participating bookmakers is a little small but those who have declared have identified a clear favourite. George Michael sadly passed away on Christmas Day in 2016 and it would therefore be fitting if one of his tracks \u2013 most probably White Christmas \u2013 were the festive number one this year.\nPaddy Power have the best price of 7/4 on any Wham or George Michael solo song to claim that number one slot when the charts are declared.\nIn second place is Ed Sheeran who has been producing new music lately and as one of the UK\u2019s most popular artists, his top price of 3/1 with Paddy Power will be tempting for many punters.\nThe group Elbow are next on the list at 4/1 with Coral and this is down to the fact that they have produced the music for 2017\u2019s John Lewis Christmas ad. The popular department store releases a creative advertisement ahead of each festive season and Elbow\u2019s Golden Slumbers may well have a chance if it can ride successfully on the John Lewis coattails.\nPunters can hedge a little this year by taking any X Factor Winner to claim this market at best odds of 6/1 with Coral. That could be a good option because, despite those campaigns to stop them, X Factor contestants Sam Bailey and Ben Haenow took the Christmas Number One slot in 2013 and 2014 respectively.\nOther popular current artists include Stormzy at 18/1 with Paddy Power and Taylor Swift with Paddy Power again but from there it\u2019s a case of looking at some possible long shots.\nThese can be put into two categories: Firstly, the bookies are looking at artists who have previously released Christmas tracks in the expectation that they might earn success with a re-release in 2017. These options include Cliff Richard, The Pogues and Slade, who can all be claimed at a top price of 100/1 with Coral.\nThen we have current artists and the possibility of releasing new material. Once again, these names are at 100/1 with Coral and they include the feuding Gallagher Brothers \u2013 Liam and Noel.\nIt\u2019s quite early to be fully committed to this bet as we will hear whispers of other artists getting involved with Christmas releases in the coming weeks but we do like that 6/1 price with Coral on any X Factor Winner. The show has its critics but it also has a lot of support and after a couple of barren years, it could be time for the programme to taste festive success once again.\nAny X Factor Winner to Claim the Christmas Number One at 6/1 with Coral",

        "raw_content": "In both his plays and short stories Chekhov was obsessed with idleness, work, and the value of art. Many of his characters do not work, such as the narrator of The House with the Mezzanine, and are conflicted because of it.\nCondemned by fate to permanent idleness, I was doing decidedly nothing. I spent whole hours looking out my windows at the sky, the birds, the avenues, read everything that came in the mail, slept. Sometimes I left the house and wandered about somewhere till late in the evening.\nHe is an artist who meets two young women, Lida and her younger sister, Missyus. He falls in love with Missyus, a simple, modest, but intelligent girl; but is more engaged by the more confident and aggressive Lida who dismisses what she sees as his indolence and irrelevance. Of what use is a landscape painter, she tells him, when peasants are sick, suffering, hungry, and dying?\nHe challenges her and rejects her notions of charity. The lot of the peasantry will not change until their lives are revolutionized, not patched and bandaged with first aid, education, and social welfare.\nIn my opinion, dispensaries, schools, libraries, first-aid kits, under the existing conditions, only serve enslavement. The people are fettered with a great chain, and you don\u2019t cut the chain, you merely add new links to it.\nWhat matters is not that Anna died in childbirth, but that all these Annas, Mavras, Pelageayas, bend their backs from early morning till dark, get sick from overwork, tremble all their lives for their hungry and sick children, fear death and sickness all their lives, fade early, age early, and die in dirt and stench\u2026..The whole horror of the situation is that they have no time to think of their souls, no time to remember their image and likeness\u2026.\nThe people must be freed from heavy physical labor, he says, and they must be given a respite, so that they don\u2019t spend their whole lives at the washtub and in the fields.\nEvery man\u2019s calling lies in spiritual activity \u2013 a constant search for truth and the meaning of life\u2026Once a man is conscious of his true calling, he can be satisfied only by religion, the sciences, the arts\u2026.\nThe arts and sciences, when genuine, aspire not to temporary, not to specific purposes, but to the eternal and the general \u2013 they seek truth and the meaning of life\u2026.and when they are harnessed to the needs and evils of the day, to first-aid kits and libraries\u2026they only complicate and clutter life.\nAll our intelligence, all our inner energies have gone to satisfying temporary, pressing needs\u2026.\nRevolution will change all this, he says. Work will be distributed equally so that all men and women regardless of class, intelligence, or profession share the drudgery, enabling each to discover beauty, spirit, and meaning. Chekhov wrote The House with the Mezzanine in 1896, twenty years before the Revolution, but he saw the change coming. Middle-class Russians like Lida were becoming aware of the poverty beneath them, and intellectuals like the narrator were envisaging a political and economic system which equalized resources and opportunity.\nIn this story the narrator recites with conviction his litany of ideal solutions, and although he berates his idleness, he feels that his work as an artist is small but important part in promoting the systemic change coming. Both the artist and the peasant observe the same landscape; but the artist alone appreciates its beauty, and in his creative interpretation of the wheat fields, spring flowers, linden trees, and cool mists of autumn, he provides the necessary link between physical reality and spiritual awareness.\nChekhov said many times in letters to friends that he thought art as important as education or medicine; and therefore the narrator of this story, despite his exaggerated poetic idealism, reflects the author\u2019s perspective.\nReading the short stories he wrote near the end of his life \u2013 those which coincide with his best plays \u2013 it is clear that Chekhov is as conflicted as many of his characters. On the one hand he writes extensively of the value of work, the useless boredom of the aristocracy, and the inefficacy of intellectuals. Vershinin and Tuzenbach in The Three Sisters endlessly debate the value of work and the future of Russian society. Both feel that work is essential, but disagree on its results. Tuzenbach feels that work has innate, inviolable value \u2013 it is an end in itself \u2013 while Vershinin sees it as a means to an end. In their arguments they get at the philosophical arguments to be made by Marx and Engels. The narrator of The House with the Mezzanine comes the closest to the future Communist manifesto.\nWhat Chekhov did not anticipate was the Communist disavowal of individual artistic enterprise as elite, irrelevant to the workers\u2019 struggle, and an unnecessary trifle. While the Soviet rulers co-opted art to their own Socialist ends and used it to portray Revolutionary struggle, the artistic creativity so important to real human advancement and lyrically presented by the narrator of The House, was stifled, removed, and punished.\nThe narrator can never truly believe in himself, and envies the rich landowner he has befriended:\n\u201cTell me, why is your life so dull, so colorless\u201d, I asked Belokurov, walking home with him. \u201cMy life is dull, heavy, monotonous, because I am an artist, a strange man, from my youth I\u2019ve been chafed by jealousy, dissatisfaction with myself, lack of faith in what I am doing. I\u2019m always poor, I\u2019m a vagabond, but you, you\u2019re a healthy, normal person, a landowner, a squire \u2013 why do you live so uninterestingly, why do you take so little from life?\nLife is not all about struggle, assuaging the ills of the poor, shining a creative beacon, arguing for revolution. It is also about satisfaction, simple pleasures, and a fat, well-tended happiness. Burghers, intellectuals, artists, and aristocrats have a duty to themselves \u2013 to add color and interest to the only life they will ever have.\nThis sense of inaction, indolence, and unwillingness to do anything is worse than actual suffering, Chekhov implies in his plays; and the real tragedy of the well-born he writes about is inability to act \u2013 either for the betterment of society or of themselves.\n\u201cThe point isn\u2019t pessimism or optimism\u201d, I said irritably, \u201cbut the ninety-nine people out of a hundred who are witless\u201d.\nIt is clear after reading Chekhov\u2019s body of work that meaning is important to him. His characters are all searching for it whether through social commitment, intellectual reflection, or as in the narrator\u2019s case and that of Lida, action.\nThe House with the Mezzanine is one of Chekhov\u2019s most interesting stories because it includes all the themes that he has dealt with in his narrative and theatrical fiction: the beauty and influence of the Russian landscape \u2013 a defining and transformative element of Russian life. Work and idleness, and the relative values of both. Work may have intrinsic value but unmitigated it can be destructive and degrading. Idleness can become indolence or can be an opportunity for reflection and art. Inaction is tragic; but action is meaningless without a philosophical context.\nLevitan 1898\nThe House with the Mezzanine is especially intriguing because of its contrast with the mundane, practical, and temporary with the more enduring. Chekhov is right in seeing how the routines of life, regardless of social class, can be confining, limiting, and debilitating. Very few people can appreciate their lives as they lead them. Wilder\u2019s Our Town is perhaps the most insightful of all modern theatre concerning this dilemma. His characters have to die before they can appreciate what they have lost.\nChekhov\u2019s works have often been criticized because \u2018nothing happens\u2019. Far from it. In these short story gems everything happens. No one is content. Everyone is struggling against time, their past, society, and themselves.",

Costner\u2019s character wasn\u2019t interested in playing the mind game \u2013 his focus was totally on his injury, his career, his life. He\u2019d plummeted into the deepest depths of self-pity.\nPhilip Iacovou loves movies, and even thought of a career in cinematography at one stage. There have also been several periods in his life when he\u2019s related to Costner\u2019s character. But after being dealt many lemons, he finally learnt how to make lemonade and his life has never been the same since.\n\u201cYou always have to see the positive in everything,\u201d says Philip. \u201cYou have to look for the solutions. Being solution-oriented has changed my life.\u201d\nGetting to that point, however, was a long and difficult road for Philip. Lemons were being thrown at him almost from the day he was born.\n\u201cI had a difficult upbringing due to my father\u2019s early life. He was just nine years old when his father was killed in the war in Cyprus against the Turks. He grew up tough, and he saw every situation through gritted teeth, which made him angry and aggressive; he thought it made him manly.\u201d\nThis was further accentuated during Philip\u2019s father\u2019s time in military service. \u201cSo, that was the environment in which my siblings and I grew up. It was tough.\u201d Philip admits.\nHis parents migrated to Australia in search of better life, and while they left the war in their homeland behind, life didn\u2019t really improve for Philip, his sister, or a third sibling; a brother who was born with Down Syndrome.\nPhilip recalls, \u201cwe came here as refugees with absolutely nothing. All my parents\u2019 credentials were either lost, destroyed or burnt in the war.\n\u201cThe one thing they did have was a work ethic and a desire to survive, so both worked two jobs, seven days a week. It was basically left to me and my sister to raise our younger brother. I was nine.\u201d\nIn a version of history repeating itself, Philip candidly comments, \u201cI was like my father in a way, nine years old and virtually fending for myself. I rebelled.\n\u201cI was angry at all the work I had to do, I was angry I had a brother born the way he was; I thought that was so unfair. The doctors said we should just leave it to God. He was in an incubator for eight months and when the doctors seemed to have given up, Mum decided to call in a priest and have him baptised. Amazingly, a couple of days later he was okay to come home. It was a miracle \u2013 I truly believe that.\u201d\nThe pressures of life took their toll on Philip when he was 17 and studying for his trial Higher School Certificate.\nThe life-changing moment came when \u201cI came home from school one day and realised I had just had enough. I packed a bag, left home and lived in my car.\n\u201cNone of my friends knew, my parents didn\u2019t even know where I was living. I still went to school, in fact I completed my HSC then got a few jobs, working at the Fish Markets and also for a cleaning company. At that stage life was just about survival.\u201d\nWhen Philip\u2019s car became unusable, he lived on the streets for a while \u201cand that was the lowest point in my life. I thought about suicide, the self-pity thing was taking over.\u201d\nPhilip kept clean by using the showers at public swimming pools or gyms and would find places to sleep in secure car parks or in the parking areas of strata blocks. \u201cI was destined to work in the strata field\u201d, he jokes.\nTo keep himself entertained, Philip would go to the movies; \u201cit was cheap and they became my escape, they helped distract me from what was really happening in my life. I would go from one cinema to another and I fell in love with the movies.\n\u201cIn the process of looking for work I joined a talent agency and got a little bit of work as an extra in commercials, movies and television shows. If you look hard enough you\u2019ll see me in one of the Mission Impossible movies.\u201d\nIt was around that time Philip began to get his life together. He found a room to rent in Leichhardt and began the process of creating success from the years of living on the lemonade that life had provided so far.\nHe recalls, \u201cI began to take control; I realised I was the cause of many of my problems, and over a period of time I applied a few mottos on how I wanted my life to be.\nI decided I wasn\u2019t going to limit myself as hesitation causes pain. I worked on not being complacent and started to understand the value of staying humble.\u201d\nThose were the keys to Philip reconnecting with his family, and joining the family cleaning business his father had started in 1995.\n\u201cMy father took a risk and started the business as sole trader, naming it Lefand, which was a combination of his Greek name \u2018Lefcos\u2019 and my mother\u2019s name \u2018Andrea\u2019. The business grew and prospered. I officially took it over in 2007 and thought we could do more than just cleaning.\n\u201cWe added maintenance to what we offered and the strata companies with whom we dealt were happy given we were one point of contact for them to get more done. It wasn\u2019t long before we were doing repairs, gardening and general handyman work; basically addressing all the needs of the residents.\u201d\nPhilip made a conscious decision when he took over, to do things differently from others.\n\u201cI worked on building relationships with clients, not just the strata companies but the residents of those premises as well.\nI knew if I could build trust with them that would be priceless.\u201d\nIn an unusual analogy, Philip recounts that \u201cI like to regard ourselves as the chlorophyll in the photosynthesis. We make the connection, then we maintain the clients; they plant the seed and we grow the crops, so to speak.\u201d\nAs the business has grown into a building and facilities management company, \u201cwe don\u2019t restrict ourselves to creating relationships just with the strata company that hires us, we build relationships with their clients.\u201d\nThese clients are typically builders and developers, \u201cso we speak to them, to gauge their concerns and needs, which typically tend to be the state of the handovers, the defects, management, pre-settlements and valuations.\n\u201cWe thought, we needed to work with them to address those concerns. We fine-tuned what their settlements were all about, brought the residents in, took control of the defect management on behalf of the developer and the builder and started resolving a lot of their issues.\u201d\nProudly, Philip can now say, \u201cit\u2019s proven to be a win-win for all involved, and has been a major reason for the growth and success of Lefand.\u201d\nThere was a period where the business stagnated, and Philip was told he wasn\u2019t offering enough. He felt as though there were elements within the industry trying to intimidate him. He listened and made a few subtle changes but refused to \u2018sell his soul\u2019.\n\u201cOur proposals were solid but we found we were losing business, so I approached a few people who said \u2018Philip, loyalty doesn\u2019t account for much these days, it\u2019s about leveraging your name and what we can get on the side\u2019. I found that very disappointing.\n\u201cI know my roots, my values and my principles, morals and ethics in life, and in business, and I wasn\u2019t about to lose track of that.\u201d\nAt the time Philip realised there was a grain of truth there and decided \u201cI do need to leverage the name of my company, but I won\u2019t be damaging that name so I didn\u2019t get involved in anything that would hurt our reputation.\n\u201cI refinanced, took a major risk with the business and our personal finances; I became a member of the so-called \u2018right\u2019 associations and worked on networking to connect with the right people, for the right reasons without any kick-backs.\u201d\nShowing the inner strength which has defined his success, Philip states, \u201cI won\u2019t be intimidated.\n\u201cNo one can deter me from what defines me or my business.\u201d\nI would rather collaborate with my competitors than get into a dog-fight with them. No one wins when it deteriorates to that level. If you knock one down another will pop up, so when does it end?\u201d\nPhilip doesn\u2019t see those offering the same services as Lefand as competitors; \u201cI believe it\u2019s far more productive to embrace them; there\u2019s plenty of pie out there for everyone. Yes, I\u2019ve been burnt once or twice by adopting that approach, but I\u2019m not the loser. I don\u2019t lose credibility, if anything I gain credibility and that helps my business.\u201d\nIn a continuation of the family theme from his early childhood, Philip\u2019s view is \u201cGod has been watching me and my business and I have faith in what I do and what I offer. That\u2019s the big thing; having faith in what you\u2019re doing.\n\u201cI have no fear opening my doors to anyone, even my so-called competitors.\u201d\nPhilip\u2019s goal now is to build the company to a level where it will be sustainable long after he\u2019s gone. He believes to do that he has to involve his staff more in the running of the business and he believes that comes down to leadership.\n\u201cOver the last few years I\u2019ve got better at working ON the business as opposed to IN the business. It\u2019s about giving those who work with you more responsibility, giving them a sense of ownership. The great thing about it here now is that they not only see the vision they believe in it.\u201d\nPhilip\u2019s leadership style is defined by \u201cnot about telling people what to do. It\u2019s mentoring them in how to run the business, letting them take the reins even if that means you lose a little control over some situations.\n\u201cSome doubt themselves and that\u2019s normal, but I let them know I believe in them and they eventually believe in themselves and they get the WOW factor: \u2018Wow, I can actually do this.\u2019\n\u201cOften they say to me \u2018you\u2019ve done so much for me, how can I ever repay you?\u2019, I simply say: pay it forward.\u201d\nThere have been a few more lemons served up to Philip as he\u2019s built the business; losing twins boys was the biggest blow on a personal level, but he\u2019s also survived a cancer scare, the passing of his sister\u2019s fianc\u00e9 to leukaemia and a car accident that tragically claimed the lives of two of his staff members.\nMuch of these events happened in a very short timeframe.\nWhen reflecting on this, Philip comments, \u201cI\u2019ve discovered it doesn\u2019t matter what life hits you with, you can stay strong and remain positive through any obstacle because love conquers and that\u2019s something I didn\u2019t realise when I was younger.\n\u201cBeing passionate about people can help you overcome anything. Don\u2019t take life for granted, which I think we do sometimes, and having a sense of humility helps you through any adversity.\u201d\nIn a link to Philip\u2019s continuing passion with the movies, he quotes a line from one of the Rocky movies as a final summation of his approach to life.\nPhilip recounts how Rocky is talking to his son about life and trying \u2013 as only Rocky can \u2013 to draw a parallel with the fight game. His words \u2018it\u2019s not how hard you hit back, it\u2019s how you get back up and keep going\u2019 are very much key to how Philip has lived his life and succeeded in business.\nIf there\u2019s one piece of advice Philip could offer to anyone starting their own business, it would be to stay positive.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re not careful, you lose that positive attitude that inspired you at the beginning and you fall into the trap of creating your own problems. There are enough hurdles as you grow your business without creating more yourself.\u201d\nHonestly admitting, \u201chesitation and complacency can really slow you down, believe me I\u2019ve been there\u201d Philip adds.\u201d My staff have heard it many times; \u2018hesitation causes pain\u2019 so avoid it.\u201d\nPhilip also believes that, as your business gets bigger, and you\u2019re employing people, be a leader, not a manager. A true leader supports those who work with him, he not only knows the way to go, he shows the way.\u201d\nIt\u2019s also important \u201cto stay humble\u201d. At Lefand we treat all our people as family and they can be as much a mentor to me as I am to them. Don\u2019t be afraid to learn from others, whether they\u2019re older or younger, employees or clients, your capacity to learn will ensure the success of your business.\u201d\nPhilip believes the relationships he has with those who work with and for him have been crucial to his success.\n\u201cDon\u2019t lose sight of how you work with others. If you really want your business to grow, your staff have to believe in what you\u2019re doing, so involve them, give them a bit of rope and be prepared to pull back a bit so they gain confidence. It might mean they make mistakes, so show empathy rather than shouting and ridiculing.\u201d\nIn a timely reminder to all business owners, Philip adds \u201cremember, you probably made a few mistakes along the journey, so if you can learn from them, surely those working with you can as well.\n\u201cThat\u2019s probably the hardest part, seeing a mistake happen, but if you handle it properly, it\u2019s amazing the impact it has on staff development, and on your business.\u201d\nIncredibly, given some of the circumstances in Philip\u2019s journey to date, he says \u201cI\u2019ve been blessed in life. Yes, I\u2019ve had setbacks \u2013 as a family we\u2019ve faced tragedy, and as a business also \u2013 but it only makes you realise how much you can do to help others.\u201d\nHaving lived with a Down Syndrome brother for most of his life, Philip and his business have been proactive in that area and also with organisations dealing with autism, the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Camp Quality.\n\u201cAt this moment, our main focus is Camp Quality and its work with children dealing with cancer.\nWe wanted to have an impact there, so now any of the sites for which we have contracts above 100 lots, we donate 10% of the value of that contract to Camp Quality.\u201d\nPhilip also mentions previous work \u201cBlue Dragon, a charity which helps educate children in Vietnam. They\u2019ve done some amazing things over the last 15 years simply through educating, training and helping children get apprenticeships.\u201d\n\u201cYou have to look for the solutions. Being solution-oriented has changed my life.\u201d\n\u201cI worked on not being complacent and started to understand the value of staying humble.\u201d\n\u201cI like to regard ourselves as the chlorophyll in the photosynthesis. We make the connection, then we maintain the clients; they plant the seed and we grow the crops, so to speak.\u201d\n\u201cI know my roots, my values and my principles, morals and ethics in life and in business and I wasn\u2019t about to lose track of that.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s not about telling people what to do. It\u2019s mentoring them in how to run the business, letting them take the reins even if that means you lose a little control over some situations.\u201d\n\u201cRemember, you probably made a few mistakes along the journey, so if you can learn from them, surely those working with you can as well. If you handle it properly, it\u2019s amazing the impact it has on staff development, and on your business.\u201d\nListen to Philip Iacovou podcast CLICK HERE or on the image below:\nFor more Unsung Business Hero stories, CLICK HERE for the UBH Podcast Channel or the image below.\n: Lefand Group, Lefand Services, Philip Iacovou, purpose publishing, unsung business heroes\nPrevious Post Entrepreneur Success Tips: How to have Discipline Fuelled Vision Next Post An Interview with Simon Arraj: Director Checkpoint Finance Group",

Photo courtesy of SDX Energy\nMay 17 (UPI) -- North African oil and gas production has enough momentum that production could double by the end of the year, SDX Energy said Thursday.\nSDX focuses primarily on Egypt and Morocco. It's a relatively minor producer, but an active player in emerging basins.\nMorocco is a standout in the region with its renewable energy ambitions, targeting 52 percent of its energy mix from low-carbon options by 2030. The country is on pace to put 2 gigawatts of solar and wind power on stream each by the end of the decade.\nSDX operates three concessions in Morocco, with a 75 percent working interest. The company's drilling program has been successful at seven of its nine gas wells drilled so far.\nIn Egypt, Italian energy company Eni last week started production from a third unit started at the Zohr field, increasing its installed capacity to 1.2 billion cubic feet per day. The project is producing about 1.1 billion cubic feet per day and the acceleration follows a start date in December.\nFor SDX, its operations are on pace for a slight increase. In January 2017, the company paid $28.1 million to take over the Egyptian and Moroccan businesses of Circle Oil.\nPresident and CEO Paul Welch said that, so far, net revenue and overall production are up considerably from last year.\n\"As at March 31, 2018, we are well funded for our numerous work commitments this year with $29.3 million of cash, no debt and we remain on track to double our production by the end of 2018,\" he said in a statement.\nSDX posted revenue to March 31 of $11 million, up 35 percent from the same period last year.

Photo by Axel Heimken/EPA\nNov. 30 (UPI) -- Less than two years ago, Gary Lineker called FIFA a \"deplorable organization.\" Now he's working for it.\nLineker will co-host the 2018 World Cup draw Friday at the State Kremlin Palace.\nRussian President Vladimir Putin will also attend the event. Lineker, a BBC broadcaster, was once a soccer star for the England national team. He led the squad with six goals in the 1986 World Cup in Mexico.\nRussian sports journalist Maria Komandnaya is co-hosting the event. It is set for 10 a.m. on Friday in Moscow. It will be streamed at fifa.com/worldcup and air on Fox Sports 1 in English and Telemundo in Spanish.\nRELATED Ex-Argentine soccer official found dead amid FIFA corruption trial\nA retired soccer legend from each nation of World Cup winners will draw the teams. Those stars will include Diego Maradona, Gordon Banks, Miroslav Klose, Laurent Blanc, Carles Puyol, Diego Forlan and Fabio Cannavaro.\n\"As a player, I was fortunate enough to take part in the World Cup finals on two occasions. It is quite special to be involved in yet another tournament -- now on the stage, unveiling the results of the draw. I have been on the other side, waiting to find out my opponents, and I know how exciting this occasion is,\" Lineker said in a release from FIFA.\nLineker, 56, has sharply criticized the football body over the last few years, targeting former FIFA President Sepp Blatter and corruption in the sport.\nRELATED Corruption trial begins in NYC for three ex-FIFA officials\n\"I'm starting to think that FIFA and even Sepp Blatter might just be corrupt,\" Lineker tweeted in June 2016.\n\"There can't be a more corrupt, deplorable organization on earth than FIFA,\" he tweeted in 2015. \"The house of cards is falling.

FIFA is imploding,\" Lineker tweeted two years ago. \"The best thing that could possibly happen to the beautiful game.\"\nRELATED USWNT star Hope Solo accuses ex-FIFA head Sepp Blatter of sexual misconduct\nThat tweet came as a response to news that the Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland seized documents in 2015 at FIFA and opened \"criminal proceedings against persons unknown on suspicion of criminal mismanagement and of money laundering in connection with the allocation of the 2018 and 2022 Football World Cups,\" according to the Swiss Federal Court.\nLineker responded to criticism for accepting the job by saying that he would continue to \"tweet about corruption and human rights issues if and when necessary.\"\n\"There is a new guard,\" he added. \"If it were still Blatter and his brigade, I would not have done it. I was approached by Van Basten and Boban, 2 good football people. I hope and think FIFA is changing. New people deserve a chance to prove it is. We will see.\"\nBlatter resigned as FIFA president in 2015, following charges of corruption against several figures in the organization.\nLineker was also a critic of FIFA's allocation process for World Cup hosts. He was part of England's bid for the 2018 tournament. Blatter recently repeated his claims that former France President Nicolas Sarkozy influenced the 2022 bidding process to favor Qatar, according to ESPNFC. The former FIFA boss is serving a six-year ban from all football-related activities.\nThere can't be a more corrupt, deplorable organisation on earth than FIFA. The house of cards is falling. Time for change!\nFIFA published an investigative report in June, detailing the process of how voters exploited the system, but allowed Russia and Qatar to host the tournament in 2018 and 2022. The FIFA team found no evidence of undue influence from Russia or Qatar in using bribes to secure the tournament, according to the New York Times.\nThe investigation found that Putin met with six FIFA voters months before the 2010 vote, but Russia's bid committee was cleared of any wrongdoing.\n\"We at FIFA are really pleased that Gary has accepted our invitation and that he will be with us for such an important occasion for the world of football. Following a football career as a legendary goalscorer, which was marked with a burning passion for the game, Gary continued in the same light as a football expert.

        "raw_content": "Silencing Histone Deacetylase 7 Alleviates Transforming Growth Factor-\u03b21-Induced Profibrotic Responses in Fibroblasts Derived from Peyronie's Plaque.\nEpigenetic modifications, such as histone acetylation/deacetylation and DNA methylation, play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disorders and fibrotic diseases. The aim of this study was to study the differential gene expression of histone deacetylases (HDACs) in fibroblasts isolated from plaque tissue of Peyronie's disease (PD) or normal tunica albuginea (TA) and to examine the anti-fibrotic effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated silencing of HDAC7 in fibroblasts derived from human PD plaque.\nFor differential gene expression study, we performed reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for HDAC isoforms (1-11) in fibroblasts isolated from PD plaque or normal TA. Fibroblasts isolated from PD plaque were pretreated with HDAC7 siRNA (100 pmol) and then stimulated with transforming growth factor-\u03b21 (TGF-\u03b21, 10 ng/mL). Protein was extracted from treated fibroblasts for Western blotting. We also performed immunocytochemistry to detect the expression of extracellular matrix proteins and to examine the effect of HDAC2 siRNA on the TGF-\u03b21-induced nuclear translocation of Smad2/3 and myofibroblastic differentiation.\nThe mRNA expression of HDAC2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11 was higher in fibroblasts isolated from PD plaque than in fibroblasts isolated from normal TA tissue. Knockdown of HDAC7 in PD fibroblasts inhibited TGF-\u03b21-induced nuclear shuttle of Smad2 and Smad3, transdifferentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts, and abrogated TGF-\u03b21-induced production of extracellular matrix protein.\nThese findings suggest that specific inhibition of HDAC7 with RNA interference may represent a promising epigenetic therapy for PD.\nThe world journal of men's health. 2018 May [Epub]\nDong Hyuk Kang, Guo Nan Yin, Min Ji Choi, Kang Moon Song, Kalyan Ghatak, Nguyen Nhat Minh, Mi Hye Kwon, Do Hwan Seong, Ji Kan Ryu, Jun Kyu Suh\nNational Research Center for Sexual Medicine, Inha University School of Medicine, Incheon, Korea.\nTags: Penile induration, fibrosis, Extracellular Matrix",

        "raw_content": "Survey shows many Americans unprepared for disaster\nIn a survey released yesterday, Allstate showed that a disturbing percentage of Americans are not prepared for a natural disaster. In the wake of an unrelenting drought, a summer of uncontrollable wildfires and a tornado unexpectedly ripping through upstate New York, these results are understandably troubling.\nAccording to the survey, although 21 percent of Americans have had their homes sustain serious damage due to natural occurrences, an overwhelming 56 percent admitted to not making an inventory of their property. Inventorying property value and possessions is the best way to ensure that belongings are replaced by an insurance company after filing a claim. Without an inventory, policyholders could stand to lose thousands of dollars in property.\nThe cost of replacing lost property would be added on top of increased insurance rates for unprepared Americans in a disaster area. According to Lancaster Online, insurance rates are raised in disaster areas due to a number of factors, including the size of the dollar amount in claims paid by the companies and the potential for a similar disaster in that area in the future.\nThe possibility that disasters will continue to occur across the continental United States is fairly high, according to FEMA's disaster declaration statistics. In 2011, the agency registered 99 major disaster declarations - the highest volume since the earliest recording in 1953.",

        "title": "Why It's Better To Animate a Film Alone, Even If It Takes 4 Years - VICE",
        "raw_content": "'Nova Seed' is sci-fi auteurship at it's best.\nA Neo Animal Combatant pilots a spaceship to fight Dr. Mindskull in Nova Seed. All images courtesy the artist and Gorgon Pictures\nAnimated films typically require a team of dozens of artists working full-time, but Nova Seed isn't your typical animated film. An old-school 2D sci-fi adventure in the vein of Saturday morning cartoons, the 80-minute movie is animated entirely by one set of hands, belonging to Nick DiLiberto. By the end of the four-year project, those hands were so blistered that he was forced to cover them in Band-Aids, athletic wrap, and a glove.\n\u201cAt a normal studio this would commonly happen, once it does, you take a break. But in this case, I was getting so much done that if I took a day off, it was like the entire staff taking a few days off. I had to get re-used to drawing all over again. Now if I take the glove off, I feel naked,\u201d says DiLiberto.\nDiLiberto animating Dr. Mindskull\nDiLiberto's path to auteur illustrator started long before the first sketches of the half-lion Neo Animal Combatant was tasked with saving the world from Dr. Mindskull in Nova Seed. It began with a 2D animation degree from Sheridan College in his native Canada, where his lack of formal drawing background put him at a disadvantage to the other students.\n\u201cThe first year and a half, I was doing bad. Everyone else grew up drawing Disney, they seemed higher in skill. But I'm a Saturday morning guy, I was used to drawing cartoon characters holding guns and stuff,\u201d says DiLiberto.\nThat changed thanks to a class taught by Ricardo Curtis, whose House of Cool Studios worked with DiLiberto on post-production and distribution for Nova Seed. Soon DiLiberto's rougher style, reminiscent of MTV's Liquid Television or cartoon classics like Thundercats, rebounded him to the top of his class\nEdmonton-based gaming company BioWare gave him his first professional experience taking storyboards to completed scenes, then after BioWare he moved with his girlfriend to Japan, taking animation jobs at a pair of studios while working on his first short film, Medusa. The two-minute battle scene eschewed traditional static camera framing for the type of psychedelic perspective work that characterizes Nova Seed's action sequences.\nThroughout his gaming career, one theme stood out: he was much faster than his fellow animators. At BioWare, his coworkers might produce five scenes for Mass Effect, while DiLiberto made 25.\nEven so, collaboration slowed down his process. By becoming his own cottage industry he did away with many of the inefficiencies that stem from traditional project workflows. Conventionally each character requires a three dimensional model sheet so that the team can maintain uniformity. DiLiberto skipped that stage, keeping the concepts in his head and improvising physical details on the fly. Similarly the level of detail typical on first pass sketches didn't need to be as high, since he'd be the one completing them.\nA rough sketch of Dr. Mindskull\n\u201cA lot of what slows down animation is telling the next person what to do. If I draw something really scribbly, I have to leave a lot of notes for the next guy. The same guy needs to leave notes for the in-between drawings. I skip all of those notes, I have it all in my head,\u201d says DiLiberto.\nBut no matter how efficient the workflow, an 80-minute film is still a seemingly impossible task. DiLiberto estimates the film includes roughly 1,000 scenes, which required a pace of one scene a day to meet his self-imposed four-year deadline. That meant 15-hour to 18-hour days\u2014the type of schedule that can't be maintained if any part of the process feels like a chore. If you're going to animate a film on your own, you need to love every minute.\nNick DiLiberto\u2019s animation process\n\u201cIt's a weird thing in my brain, I really do enjoy every job. I even punch my own animation paper. Nobody wants to do that, that's why they sell it prepunched. Scanning would be the next job you'd give to the intern, but for me it's an opportunity to take a break and look at the artwork,\u201d says DiLiberto.\nThe advantage of this gluttonous approach is an omnipotent level of creative control. In the wrong hands that could lead to disaster, but with Nova Seed it results in a product that feels child-like in the best way. The universe is as idiosyncratic as a daydream and feels as spontaneous as a doodle, mixing mad scientist sci-fi tropes with the type of toy action that fills the sandboxes of elementary school boys. That element of play is amplified thanks to vehicle sound effects DiLiberto creates not only in-house, but in-mouth.\nA crashed vehicle in the dystopian desert of Nova Seed\n\u201cI did all the temp sound effects with my own voice. I was imagining the sound effects you'd make when you're playing as a kid. There's an area in the opening fight where a sword hits a wall and it makes a shiinnnng sound. I wanted it to be in the uncanny valley, if it's too obvious, it becomes a joke,\u201d says DiLiberto.\nAnother advantage of the auteur approach is geographic freedom. After a few years in Japan, DiLiberto and his wife lamented that they couldn't return to Canada to visit family. Leaving his full-time job and collaborating with Toronto-based House of Cool on post-production freed up their schedule to return to Canada much more frequently.\n\u201cBy making my own studio, I was able to balance my family in Canada while living in Japan. That was a major decision we made together, it helped my wife get on board,\u201d says DiLiberto.\nBut despite the freedom of travel, a project of that magnitude takes its toll in other ways.\nThe key to Dr. Mindskull\u2019s ultimate weapon\n\u201cThe disadvantage is that it's fully time-consuming. You almost have to sacrifice your favorite thing. I am a die-hard film fan, I love going to the movie theater even if there's nothing good playing, but I don't even remember the last time I watched a movie. To make a movie, there's no time for enjoying film, and that sucks.\u201d\nNova Seed is playing film festivals and currently seeking broader distribution.\nVintage Sci-Fi Comics Are Back and Better Than Ever\nCartoon Violence You Won\u2019t See On TV\nStudio Ghibli's Animation Software Is Now Free",

        "raw_content": "Top Things to Do Outdoors in Mankato\nNestled along the Minnesota River in Southern Minnesota, Mankato is a hidden gem for sports and nature enthusiasts. Once summer arrives, it\u2019s time to take advantage of the many outdoor amenities that the area has to offer. The region is home to the unique Blue Earth River tributary, endless hiking trails and Minneopa State Park, which is known for its collection of large waterfalls. Take off your parkas, put on that sunscreen and get ready to tackle the great outdoors. From scouting for wild bison in a park to kayaking on the river past farmland, here are five of the top things to do outdoors in Mankato.\nWhether you\u2019re looking for a serious hike or a scenic stroll, Mankato is home to plenty of trails that entice you to get outdoors. Put on your best hiking boots or mount your bike and head over to Rasmussen Woods located by Elks Nature Center. While there, look for rare species of birds as you hike or bike through meadows, wetlands and cliffs.\nTo explore the open countryside, head over to Red Jacket Trail that crosses over the breathtaking LeSueur River. The route stretches for 13 miles, making it ideal to explore it by bike. Cyclists or hikers who are looking for a more off-the-beaten-path route may want to check out Sakatah Trail, a 39-mile long abandoned railroad pathway that weaves through picturesque farmland, lakes and small towns. Other trails to visit by foot or bike are Minnesota River Trail (a multi-use trail), Seven Mile Creek (great for fishing stops), South Route Trail and Williams Nature Center (overlooks the Minnesota River). To plan out a detailed route, there are several biking loops that will take you throughout and around the city.\nIn Mankato, you can visit a one-of-a-kind park known for its picturesque nature scenes that also has its own petting zoo and themed playground. Spend your day outdoors trekking Sibley Park\u2018s trails (360\u00b0 virtual tour) along the river before stopping to pet a range of animals like cows, goats, horses and alpacas. Other animals you can see at the zoo include chickens, peacocks, ducks and the exotic koi fish in its pond. If you\u2019re traveling with children, make an extra stop at Sibley\u2019s farm-themed playground with a bright red barnyard, clusters of haystacks used for climbing and a big green tractor. This is an award-winning park you don\u2019t want to miss.\nAnother park that nature lovers must check out is Minneopa State Park, famous for its waterfalls (some of the largest in the state). The park has been called one of the best places to see waterfalls within a short drive from Minneapolis. The park is now home to a herd of bison that you can make a special point of seeing after trekking through the scenic hiking trails to admire the falls.\nR iver System\nWhy explore the parks by foot when you can do it by water? Mankato has several river systems worth exploring; in fact, the area has more river shore than any other county in the state. Summer is the perfect time to rent a kayak at Sibley Park or farther upstream at the Rapidan Dam to set out on the Blue Earth River or the Minnesota River. You can also rent kayaks with Bent River Outfitters. Find out more about water adventures in Mankato here. For an experiential view, watch Bent River\u2019s video here.\nGrab a one-seater or two-seater, and start your journey by paddling past the city\u2019s skyline and farmland before going deeper into the wilderness. The water currents are known for being quite gentle, making it ideal to bring along the kids.\nCityArt\nSpend your day exploring downtown Mankato\u2019s outdoor art scene. CityArt is a special project that includes 30 art sculptures from talented artists around the world that have been installed on sidewalks in the core of the City Center. Go on a self-guided walking tour with a downloadable brochure to see the impressive display of statues and sculptures of cubist nudes, abstract pieces, dinosaurs and more. At the end of the tour, you can opt to vote for your favorite sculpture by using the ballot next to your chosen piece.\nEnjoy the warm summer air while listening to music at an outdoor concert in Riverfront Park (360\u00b0 virtual tour) . Home to outdoor Vetter Stone Amphitheater, the park is ranked among the best concert venues in the state and has hosted big-name musicians like Willie Nelson, Old Crow Medicine and Merle Haggard. Concerts are set up to surround the stage, allowing every seat at the amphitheater to have a great view. Regular performances include local choirs and the symphony orchestra.\nThese are just some of the ideas of things you can do outdoors in Mankato, but different seasons provide new opportunities for outdoor exploration.

        "raw_content": "Artist Sharmistha Ray takes us behind the scenes of her solo exhibition, \u2018we are all islands\u2019\nby Sharmistha Ray\nDoing last minute touch-ups on the Cosmic Earth sculptures during installation\nMidnight. Checking all lights and electrical works. Light installation 'In Search of Rainbows'\nSharmistha Ray working on her installation\nEntrance of the Nine Fish gallery\nArtist Sharmistha Ray\nThe seed for my sixth solo exhibition we are all islands was planted over a year ago. I had started to imagine partially immersive landscapes as an intimate exploration of human experiences in the digital age. I\u2019m primarily a painter and painting is a hugely solitary activity, which requires me to shut off from the world completely. It\u2019s an activity that requires hundreds of hours, working alone towards an abstract goal. It\u2019s a completely touch-mediated process that doesn\u2019t allow for distancing. I wanted to retain that sensibility, but allow others to collaborate with me, to engage with my process. Trial and error was integral to the making of these new environments. I started with an idea, but the process has had a large part to play in shaping the eventual outcome.\nI\u2019m also a life-long \u00e9migr\u00e9, migrating across continents from a young age. Since that became normal, I replicated that in my adult life. Relationships, familial, friendships and others, are mediated across vast distances. But I\u2019ve realized that while digital technologies can collapse space and time, they cannot erase physical reality completely. A person\u2019s presence, the intimacy of belonging and the sensory implications of touch are essential to what it means to be human. While the unfamiliar and the dispossession of physical roots calls upon something vital within me, it\u2019s also created a strange distortion of time, place and culture, which inevitably enters the work.\nA sense of bodily disorientation is deliberately orchestrated within the exhibition. Objects appear to tilt, shift, teeter on the edge. I\u2019ve created an archipelago of sculptural landmasses the viewer has to navigate through in order to experience the exhibition. Within the archipelago is another archipelago of art forms ranging from painting to sculpture, photography, drawing and installations that I\u2019ve been experimenting with over the last few years. I worked on-site in a residency format for three months on the five large sculptures in the show. Together, they represent the foundation of earth, the original body from which we emerged as dust particles many eons ago. These formations have roots. They belong. It\u2019s the viewer who has to find her way.\nMaking meaningful connections between these very myriad art forms has been a challenge in the curatorial layout of the exhibition. It\u2019s an evolutionary process that has developed from the moment of conception until the very last hour, literally. My last intervention will happen an hour before the show, when I arrive for the opening. Complexity and layered exchanges are critical, of course, but so is the nature of ambivalence. Being open and present to changes at every juncture has allowed all the many small pieces to fall into place. The final connections have happened. It\u2019s been exhausting, exhilarating.\nSharmistha Ray\u2019s solo, we are all islands, opens on September 30 and is ongoing till 6 November at the Nine Fish Art Gallery at the Great Eastern Estate at Byculla.",

This represents a 46 per cent decrease from the average of 114 in each of the previous five years. This success well exceeds government\u2019s goal, set in 2010 in honour of impaired driving victim Alexa Middelaer, to reduce alcohol-impaired driving fatalities by 35 per cent by the end of 2013.\nGovernment also released today an independently conducted survey of drivers in Abbotsford, Kelowna, Prince George, Saanich and Vancouver. It took place in June 2010 and June 2012 as part of an evaluation of the impact of B.C.\u2019s IRP legislation. The 2012 Roadside Alcohol and Drug Survey found 44 per cent fewer drivers had a blood-alcohol content (BAC) 0.05 per cent and over \u2013 and nearly 60 per cent fewer drivers were at or over the Criminal Code threshold of 0.08 per cent. The results also showed that levels of drinking and driving were the lowest recorded in the history of seven similar surveys conducted since 1995.",

        "raw_content": "W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 launches new portfolio of Environmental Services targeted at marine and energy customers\nThe introduction of Environmental Services marks another step in W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s strategy of strengthening its position as a leading provider of environmental marine and energy solutions. Environmental Services will be offered throughout W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s fully-owned global network, the most extensive in the industry.\nW\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 has introduced a new portfolio of services, Environmental Services, which offer both marine and energy market customers the most extensive set of environmentally-related services, products and solutions in the industry. This portfolio is in line with W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s strategy of strengthening its position as a leading provider of environmental retrofit solutions to already existing installations. Environmental Services will help customers to minimize emissions into the air and water, and help them to meet increasingly stringent legislation and regulations.\nThe new portfolio includes a range of products, solutions and services aimed at both land-based power plants and ship installations. As part of the portfolio, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 offers catalysts (SCR) that treat nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, while scrubbers are offered for removing sulphur oxides (SOx). Both are harmful emissions that have detrimental effects on humans and nature. W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 can also offer complete oily water treatment systems for power plants and marine applications that meet the most stringent standards.\nIn addition, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 is able to offer total service packages, including start-ups, installations, engineering work, and maintenance and repairs. W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 is also planning to develop a new area of expertise, namely consultancy services, to support customers in optimizing their environmental performance. Further plans to broaden the company\u2019s services offering to customers are also in the works.\nThe most extensive network with 160 locations\nEnvironmental Services will be offered via W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s fully-owned global network, which with 160 locations is the largest in the industry. The new Environmental Services programme broadens W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s range of specialist services by centralising its environmental expertise and knowledge.\nThe W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 services portfolio is already the broadest in the market, with expertise in the areas of engine services, propulsion services, electrical & automation services, boiler services and training services. Services is one of W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s three business areas, the others being Ship Power and Power Plants. Services has operations in 70 countries and employs 11,000 professionals.\nReducing emissions to below regulation limits\nTighter emissions legislation is impacting both the shipping and power plant sectors. For example, the forthcoming requirements of the International Maritime Organization stipulate a significant reduction in sulphur oxide (SOx) emissions. Also carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are being discussed within the IMO, where proposals for defining energy efficiency design and operational indexes for ships are under consideration. In Norwegian waters, lower nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions will reward ship owners through reduced NOx fees.\nSimilarly, legislation requirements for power plants where the emission components are similar, are also becoming increasingly stringent. In tackling these environmental challenges, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s Environmental Services can already now offer its customers a wide range of products that reduce emissions below regulation limits.\nMs Britt-Mari Kullas-Nyman\nGeneral Manager, Environmental Services\nbritt-mari.kullas-nyman@wartsila.com\nMr Arnauld Filancia\narnauld.filancia@wartsila.com",

        "raw_content": "Judge Denies USADA Bid to Obtain Testimony\nA federal judge denied a motion by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency Friday to obtain the sealed grand jury testimony of the four athletes it is attempting to ban for life from track and field for alleged doping offenses.\nThe agency has sought for weeks to obtain the testimony for its pending arbitrations, according to lawyers with knowledge of the letters.\nSeveral sources said at least some of the athletes charged by USADA admitted taking banned drugs to the grand jury convened in the federal steroid investigation surrounding the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative. Had U.S. District Judge Susan Illston granted the motion during Friday's hearing in San Francisco, it would have made victory in at least some of the arbitrations a virtual lock for USADA.\nInstead, the agency will have to rely on the circumstantial evidence it has procured from a federal raid of BALCO to try to ban the athletes from the Athens Games. None of the athletes has failed a drug test in connection with this case.\nBefore filing its motion, USADA made repeated requests to the four athletes -- Tim Montgomery, Chryste Gaines, Michelle Collins and Alvin Harrison -- to take the legal steps necessary to obtain their own testimony. Lawyers for all of the athletes rejected those requests.\nIt is extremely unusual for the courts to release grand jury testimony to any party for any reason. USADA argued that the testimony would help the United States field a clean team at the 2004 Olympics.\n\"Did these people take these substances or didn't they?\" Bob Vizas, a USADA attorney, told Illston, according to the Associated Press. \"We want to see the right people compete in the Olympics.\"\nIllston, however, supported the government's view that USADA did not have a compelling enough need to violate the secrecy that testifying in front of a grand jury is supposed to guarantee.",

        "raw_content": "Prince Harry said to \u2018give Donald Trump a chance,\u2019 according to Meghan Markle\u2019s father\nIn this file photo taken on April 25, 2018, Meghan Markle talks with Britain's Prince William as she arrives to attend a service marking Anzac Day in Westminster Abbey in London. / AFP PHOTO /ADRIAN DENNIS/AFP/Getty Images\nLONDON \u2014 Meghan Markle\u2019s father said that Prince Harry told him to give Donald Trump a chance and suggested that he was open about Britain\u2019s withdrawal from the European Union.\nIn a lengthy interview with the British broadcaster ITV, Thomas Markle said Harry was an \u201cinteresting guy\u201d and \u201ceasy to talk to.\u201d He said they had not yet met in person but had chatted on the phone about various issues, including Donald Trump and Britain's exit from the E.U., known as Brexit.\n\u201cOur conversation was, I was complaining I didn\u2019t like Donald Trump. He said, 'Give Donald Trump a chance.' I sort of disagreed with that. But I still like Harry. That was his politics; I have my politics.\u201d\nAsked if he thought Harry was a Trump supporter, Markle said: \u201cI would hope not now. But at the time, he might have been.\u201d\nMarkle said that when they spoke for the very first time, last year, Harry asked him how we was doing.\n\u201cHe was asking me how I was feeling that day, and I was telling him how unhappy I was with the president, or with the idea of Trump, and that\u2019s how it began,\u201d Markle said.\nOn Britain\u2019s decision to leave the European Union, Markle said of his talks with his future son-in-law: \u201cIt was just a loose conversation about something we have to try. There was no real commitment to it.... I think he was open to the experiment.\u201d\nParty politics are a no-go zone for senior members of the royal family, and they are expected to steer clear of political issues such as Brexit, which remains deeply divisive in Britain.\nMarkle also spoke about missing his daughter\u2019s wedding last month in Windsor.\n\u201cI absolutely wanted to walk my daughter down the aisle,\u201d Markle told ITV's \u201cGood Morning Britain.\u201d But he said his poor health meant that he could not make the wedding on May 19, which was watched around the world.\n\u201cMeghan cried, I'm sure, she did cry, and they both said, 'Take care of yourself, we are really worried about you,\u2019\u201d said Markle, 73, recounting the moment when he told his daughter he would not be able to attend the wedding.\nMarkle, a mild-mannered former lighting director, said: \u201cThe unfortunate thing for me now is I'm a footnote in one of the greatest moments in history rather than the dad walking her down the aisle. That upsets me somewhat.\u201d\nBut he was quick to add that he was \u201chonored\u201d that Prince Charles, Harry\u2019s father and heir to the throne, walked his daughter down the aisle at Windsor Castle\u2019s St. George\u2019s Chapel.\n\u201cI can't think of a better replacement than someone like Prince Charles,\u201d he told the program.\nIn the lead-up to the royal event of the year, there was fevered speculation over whether Markle would attend the wedding. Just days before the event, Markle had heart surgery \u2014 he had three stents implanted \u2014 and said he would not be able to make it to the wedding. Palace officials announced the day before the nuptials that Prince Charles would walk Meghan down the aisle. Markle told ITV on Monday that he was recovering well from the surgery.\nMarkle also spoke about the moment when Harry asked him for permission to marry his daughter. He said his daughter had told him about the engagement first, and then in a subsequent phone conversation, Harry joined Meghan on the phone and asked for his permission.\n\u201cHarry asked for her hand on the phone, and I said: 'You are a gentleman. Promise me you will never raise your hand against my daughter, and of course I give you my permission.'\u201d\nHe said that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, as the couple are now known, would likely try to have children soon.\n\u201cShe's wanted children for a long time,\u201d Markle said of his daughter.\nHe also spoke about the brouhaha over his working with a photographer to stage photos that he had hoped would \u201cimprove my look.\u201d\n\u201cThis was a presentation to me to change my image because for the last year, photographs of me were always derogatory. They would take pictures of my hand grabbing a beer; they\u2019d take pictures of me getting out of my car, taking the garbage out; they\u2019d take pictures of me buying a toilet and making a big deal out of it. They take all kinds of pictures of me making me look negative,\u201d Markle said, choking up.\n\u201cI thought this was a nice way of me improving my look. Obviously, that all went to hell. And I feel bad about it. I apologized for it,\u201d he said. He said that after that incident, he was still planning to attend the wedding, but then could not because of his health.\nHe said he was not prepared for the global media attention on his family following his daughter\u2019s engagement to a British royal. But he said his daughter would \u201crise to that occasion.\u201d\n\u201cMy daughter is capable of anything,\u201d said the proud dad. \u201cAnd she will certainly be a complement to the royal family.\u201d",

Heilig Meyers Co. v. Internal Revenue Service (4 th Cir., May 9, 2007). The taxpayer, a retailer of home furnishings, had argued that the case was a dispute over valuation, not a dispute over accounting methods. By framing the issue as one involving an accounting method, the Service was able to take advantage of its broad authority under IRC \u00a7 446(b) to reject the taxpayer's accounting method and to substitute its own.\nIn Heilig Meyers , the taxpayer had determined the market value of its accounts receivable on the basis of a valuation study by Ernst & Young. The court rejected E&Y's valuation as flawed in several respects, including being factually inconsistent with statements the taxpayer had made in its annual report.\nIn holding that the valuation of property is an accounting method, the court in Heilig followed the decision in Bank One Corp. v.

        "raw_content": "Lee County man reported missing, mother concerned about safety\nHome Local News MSU Product Could Boost Nutrition\nMSU Product Could Boost Nutrition\nSTARKVILLE, Miss. \u2014 A Mississippi State University student team\u2019s business venture may be one solution to nutritional deficiencies the state\u2019s schoolchildren face.\nThe team of students in MSU Department of Food Science, Nutrition and Health Promotion proposed a business to produce a cost-effective, sweet-potato-based powder they have named \u201cPanacea.\u201d\nTeam members include junior Morgan Von Staden of Olive Branch, Mississippi; graduate student Liz Ivey of Cumming, Georgia; and graduate student Hector Portillo of Sarasota, Florida.\nPanacea would be produced using culled sweet potatoes, mixed with other ingredients such as applesauce or yogurt, and sold to cafeterias to increase the nutritional value of school lunches.\n\u201cIf you\u2019ve ever gone to any school cafeteria, one of the first things you\u2019re going to see in the trash can is fruits and vegetables,\u201d Von Staden said. \u201cThere is a large need for an effective way to get children to eat fruits and vegetables instead of throwing them away.\u201d\nDeveloping a product to achieve that goal is an example of social business, a model developed by Bangladeshi entrepreneur Muhammad Yanus, which focuses on sustainable businesses that address social health issues instead of maximum profit.\nRepresenting the MSU Division of Agriculture, Forestry and Veterinary Medicine, the student team was one of 11 groups from Mississippi public universities that participated in the Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Mississippi Social Business Challenge last month. The event allowed students to showcase possible solutions for obesity and other health issues.\nThe team is currently discussing options for distributing the product with food companies. They propose eventually making Panacea available in stores, which could extend its reach into homes.\n\u201cIn an age when parents are working more hours than ever, it seems like we\u2019re trading freshness for convenience, not because we want to but because we\u2019re accustomed to it, and it is a necessity in most households,\u201d Portillo said. \u201cWhen we repeat this trend, we fall into a complacency that is consciously teaching our youth that this is the norm. Those habits have traveled from homes to cafeterias. Children need a healthy but nonconventional option that offers the benefits of eating the greens without the dread of doing so.\u201d\nUnder the team\u2019s plan, Panacea would contain mostly Mississippi products. It would be a boon to state sweet potato farmers because it makes use of crops considered to be unmarketable. About 30 percent of the state\u2019s harvested sweet potatoes do not meet size, shape, color or appearance standards that consumers expect. However, these culled tubers still have the same nutritional value as perfect potatoes.\nPortillo said the product they designed is intended to be mixed with applesauce because that is a suitable food item regularly found in many school cafeterias.\n\u201cHow this product differs is that you\u2019re going to have applesauce that includes spinach, kale, sweet potatoes, and various other fruits and vegetables that kids would otherwise think they don\u2019t like,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen they find out those items are in the applesauce, they\u2019ll have fewer inhibitions about trying other products. Along with getting health benefits, it would instill confidence in the kids and allow them to make better health choices outside school lunches.\u201d\nIvey said a major consideration of the proposed product was making sure it met nutritional standards of the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP), a federally assisted program that helps feed students in participating elementary schools. After operating as a pilot program in a limited number of schools for six years, FFVP was established through the Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008. Under the program, schools receive $50 to $75 per student for each school year.\n\u201cThere are similar products to Panacea already on the market, but none would be able to compare to the estimated price of 28 cents per serving,\u201d Ivey said. \u201cWhile the product would cost slightly more than the amount the Fresh Fruit and Vegetables Program offers to schools, we feel any extra would be well spent when more students achieve their daily nutritional goals.\n\u201cWe developed a revenue model with a low retail price but a high profit for producers that would turn into a projected $1.2 million when 25 million servings are placed in school lunches across Mississippi over just one year,\u201d she said.\nDavid Buys, faculty advisor for the team and MSU Extension Service health promotion specialist, said the product represents an important shift toward a profit-generating, health-promoting product that can contribute to the improved nutritional well-being of children and adolescents in the state.\n\u201cMississippi has seen a lot of nonprofit-based programs that seek to affect change in the health and economic status of our people, and for that, I am grateful,\u201d Buys said. \u201cWe cannot work our way out of poverty and poor health in Mississippi solely with good intentions; rather, we have to find sustainable, revenue-generating solutions to these complex problems like the ones these students propose.\u201d\nTeam members initially developed the idea for the Panacea project at the Mississippi Sweet Potato Innovation Challenge, and they partnered with the MSU Entrepreneurship Center for business assistance.\n\u201cThe MSU Entrepreneurship Center is based in business but supports anyone on campus who wants to turn an innovative idea into a company,\u201d Buys said. \u201cIt was important to partner with them to help this business idea become a reality.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Family Law Q&A: A Better Way to \u201cConsciously Uncouple\u201d \u2013 Collaborative Divorce\nA Better Way to \u201cConsciously Uncouple\u201d \u2013 Collaborative Divorce\nQ: I want to have a \u201cgood\u201d relationship with my spouse after our divorce so that our children don\u2019t feel uncomfortable being in the same room with both parents at their future life events, such as their wedding. Is that even possible?\nA: This question begs the catch-all answer that all lawyers were taught in law school: \u201cthat depends.\u201d However, in most cases, the answer is a resounding yes! In fact, in any divorce or \u201cbreak-up\u201d where children are involved, the answer should always be yes, in my opinion. When children are involved, you and the other parent will always be your children\u2019s parents, even after your children become adults. There isn\u2019t a person on the planet who wants their parents to attend their wedding and make everyone uncomfortable (including the bride and groom) because everyone can feel the tension in the room. Fortunately, you have a lot of control over the outcome of your divorce. However, it all depends on which divorce process you choose.\nThere are five ways to resolve all issues relating to your divorce (or custody dispute): (1) the \u201ckitchen table\u201d negotiations between you and your spouse, (2) mediation, (3) Collaborative Law, (4) settlement negotiations between attorneys, and (5) litigating your divorce in court. The process you choose not only affects the future relationship you will have with your soon-to-be-ex and how your children are impacted by the divorce, but it directly impacts the cost of your divorce and the amount of control you have over the outcome of your divorce. The range for cost and control begins with option one above, which is the least expensive and gives you the most control over the outcome of your divorce, and as you move to option five, the cost increases and your control over the outcome decreases such that option five is the most expensive and you have very little control over the outcome of your divorce. The more control you have over the outcome of your divorce (as opposed to a court having control), the greater your chances at having a \u201cgood\u201d relationship with your spouse after your divorce because you both participated in reaching an agreement that works for both of you.\nIn my experience, most divorce and custody cases are riddled with distrust and animosity. As a result, in the traditional litigation process everyone loses, especially the children. When parties litigate divorce and custody issues, the parties\u2019 relationship only deteriorates further, which inevitably causes harm to their children (whether they can see it or not), and the costs are exorbitant. I have found that if you want to resolve your divorce or custody case in a way that positively restructures your family and preserves relationships, takes your concerns and interests into consideration and protects your children from the potential negative effects of divorce, Collaborative Law is the best process to achieve those goals. It is also substantially less expensive than litigation.\nCollaborative Law is almost the opposite of traditional court litigation: instead of being manipulative and adversarial, it is transparent; instead of trying to get more than the other side, it is a group effort to try to get both parties more of what they want. Collaborative Law is a team-based approach to resolving issues relating to divorce and custody outside of court where each party has a collaboratively trained attorney and a collaboratively trained coach who is a mental health professional. The parties may also have a collaboratively trained financial neutral to assist with resolving financial issues. There are structured team meetings where the coaches manage any emotional issues the parties may have and ensure that the parties communicate respectfully to one another while the attorneys assist the parties in resolving the legal issues. The Collaborative Law process is more powerful than mediation because if an agreement cannot be reached, all professionals involved are disqualified from representing or working with either party in litigation. This gives everyone the incentive to work hard to try to reach an agreement that will really help their family. Also, all time and money spent in the Collaborative Law process goes toward reaching a durable settlement agreement and enforceable \u201cmini agreements\u201d along the way (whereas in litigation, a lot of money is spent waiting for your case to be called in court).\nIf your goal is to have a \u201cgood\u201d relationship with your spouse after your divorce for the benefit of your children, Collaborative Law is likely the best process because it is the most child-focused process that gives both parties the necessary tools and skills to move forward from the past to form an amicable relationship. However, Collaborative Law isn\u2019t for everyone. For example, if someone is in a physically abusive relationship, Collaborative Law may not be a good fit, rather, settlement negotiations between attorneys may be better. Ultimately, litigation in court is the last place you want to be if you have children. Voltaire said it best: \u201cI was never ruined but twice: once when I lost a lawsuit, and once when I won one.\u201d\nMay 25 \u2013 Are Custody Evaluations Worth It?",

HE THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO HAVE SEX WITH A CHILD. HE ALLEGEDLY HAD LIQUOR WITH HIM AND INJECTABLE TREATMENT FOR ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION AND A THUMB DRIVE WITH OVER 100 IMAGES OF CHILDREN.

(Updated at 11:32am 8th January 2015)\nRadical plans could see better funding for arts services in Dorset despite savage government cuts.\nMembers of Dorset County Council are creating a Community Interest Company.\nThe CIC would be able to get funding from the National Lottery as well as private investors to support the arts.\nCllr Colin Jamieson, Cabinet member for Community Services, said: \"The county council is pleased to be supporting the arts development team to move to a new employee owned company. The aim of the CIC is to work in a more creative way, and take advantage of funding opportunities not open to local authorities.\"\n\"In times of severe austerity measures, there is much less money available, and we face tough choices about what services we can provide. Creating an independent arts company will help to protect the future of the services in Dorset.\"\nThe CIC, or the Arts Development Company as it will be known, will be an independent employee owned company, supported by the county council.\nThe Council claims the move will open up doors for new income streams, including funding from the National Lottery as well as private investment and charitable giving and create an environment for arts services to develop and flourish in the future.\nDorset County Council has also agreed to refurbish the Little Keep building up to a total of \u00a3300,000 to provide a base for the Arts Development Company that can also serve as a hub for a wide range of arts organisations.\nLaura Mulhern is the Creative Director of South West Artworks, she told Wessex FM: \"We are a local contemporary arts agency that helps to promote emerging talent from the region and see this as a welcome development- the more arts services that are available to serve the local thriving arts scene the better. Too often there are opportunities more widely available for external or more high profile artists-or organisation that at rely wholly on public funding- which isn't sustainable- perhaps service this can help share our mission in boosting the arts community as well as our local economy in the long term. The creative industry is one of the few growing sectors in the uk - it's about time it is recognised more widely for it's positive social and economic impact.\"\nDorset pupils encouraged to run a mile a day",

        "raw_content": "Child-Centered Divorce: Back to School after Split\nDivorce Splits During School Year Can Be Tough on the Children\nMany families experience separation or divorce as summer approaches so they can take advantage of the school break to make post-divorce transitions. There are many other families, however, that make the break in the midst of the school year.\nThere are several reasons why this sometimes becomes a necessity. Many couples considering splitting decide to wait until after the holidays to break the news to their children. Others wait to take advantage of year-end job bonuses so they\u2019ll have the extra funds to cover attorney, moving, and other related expenses. Still, others are faced with unexpected circumstances which accelerate the decision to divorce.\nRegardless, it\u2019s not the why that should be concerning us at this time, it\u2019s the how. How are these parents going to approach their separation or divorce, and how will it affect their innocent children?\nI, too, planned my separation mid-school year more than a decade ago. My son was eleven at the time. We told him a couple of days after Christmas but didn\u2019t make the physical split until February 1st.\nObviously, school-year separations can be especially difficult for school-age children. Parents need to bend over backward to minimize the changes and transitions in their child\u2019s life so as to keep school-related schedules, after-school activities, playtime with friends and other routines as much the same as possible.\nChoosing to co-parent, my former husband and I each maintained a residence, intentionally located within a mile or two of each other. Our son got off the school bus at one house or the other, with little disruption of his normal routine. At the end of the school year, one of his teachers came up to me saying she just learned that my husband and I split up in February. She said she was quite surprised because my son didn\u2019t skip a beat in school. He still maintained his straight As. You can\u2019t imagine how gratifying that was for me.\nLittle did I know then that a decade later I would be writing a book and devoting my life to alerting parents about the pitfalls of divorce if their decisions are not child-centered.\nMy advice is simple, but not always easy. Put yourself in your child\u2019s place and feel the insecurity, fear, anxiety, guilt and shame that your child may be experiencing. Make decisions based on how he or she is going to look back and remember these next several years. It may be helpful to ask ourselves the folowing questions:\nDid you put their physical, emotional and psychological needs first?\nDid you respect the fact that children innately love both parents and are wounded when one of them is disparaged, regardless of your personal perspective about it?\nDid you force your child to be a spy or go-between, taking on responsibilities that children should not bear?\nDid you ask your child to choose between loving Mom or Dad, or take sides in any way?\nDid you keep one of their parents from active participation in their life because you wanted to hurt your spouse?\nThese are destructive behaviors and decisions often made without considering the effects on the children who are inevitably scarred from the inside out. And they need not take place. It\u2019s not divorce per se that harms children, I firmly believe. It\u2019s the parent\u2019s approach to divorce that makes all the difference in the world. How are you approaching these challenges?\nMy mission is clear: to encourage parents in consciously choosing to create a collaborative, harmonious Child-Centered Divorce which will benefit the entire family for months, years and decades to come. My son is proof that it can work successfully.",

        "raw_content": "by John Schmoll\nNews & Education / 7 simple goals to focus on to have a great year\nIt's hard to believe, but we're in a new year. As I get older, it's amazing how fast the years fly by. With growing kids and a business to run, it seems like it's all I can do to stay on task and reach my goals throughout the year.\nI'm not a fan of New Year's resolutions as they tend not to be quantifiable, which cuts down the likelihood of success. But that doesn't mean you should give up on goals altogether. You can be very successful at reaching goals; you just need to personalize them, have fun and be realistic. Quantifying your goals as well will certainly help you be more effective.\nIf you're wondering how to start off 2018 on the right foot, here are seven simple goals to set to have a great year.\nI love to read for pleasure. It really doesn't matter the genre of the book; I just enjoy reading. The problem is that I get busy and reading a book for pleasure becomes more of a remote possibility than a reality.\nWhat I've found to be helpful is to pick one book to read at some point throughout the year. If I commit to that now, I know I'll have a much better chance of success. It doesn't necessarily have to be a book on personal finance. In fact, I'd recommend something more fun if time is of the essence.\nHowever, if you do want to go the finance route, there are many personal finance books on Amazon to select.\nYou can even select from the best investing books for beginners if you're new to investing and want to get started.\nReading has many benefits, and it's no surprise that it's one of the best money habits many self-made millionaires follow to expand their knowledge.\nLearn One New Thing About Money\nThis was something I learned when I first started paying off debt. I had no idea how to manage my money effectively and the credit counselor I worked with encouraged me to find one thing to learn about money and use that to build momentum.\nLike the simple goal of reading one book, it doesn't really matter what area of money you choose. The point is to pick a topic, become confident about it and move on to another topic.\nMaybe you have debt and don't know how to start paying it off. You can research ways to pay off debt and start attacking it.\nIf it's investing, research how to start investing and start putting away money. Again, it doesn't matter the area, just pick one and run with it.\nLosing weight, or getting in better shape, is one of the most popular New Years resolutions. I know it was one of mine for years and I never saw success. It wasn't until I decided to take my health seriously that I began the process of losing 100 pounds on Nutrisystem.\nDon't give in to the belief that you need an expensive gym membership to lose weight. I lost all my weight without stepping foot in a gym and simply exercised at home. In fact, I started my fitness regime by walking around the neighborhood.\nAs I began to lose weight and build confidence, my exercise routine increased to doing circuit training and riding an exercise bike. Find something you like to do for exercise and just start.\nPair it with better eating choices, and you'll be surprised at how much better you feel, which becomes addicting.\nWe love TV. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that the average adult watches nearly three hours of TV per day. That's an average, of course, so you may be above or below that statistic.\nTalk about wasted time, especially if you're doing nothing during that time but tuning out. If you're finding yourself short on time or would like the opportunity to do other things this year, consider trimming down your tube time.\nYou can start small, maybe in 15 or 30-minute increments, so it's not a shock to your system. There are many things to do besides watching TV, so I know you won't be at a loss of finding things to do.\nLike many of these other goals, you'll be surprised at how quickly you can build momentum \u2013 not to mention how great it'll feel to have all that extra free time.\nCut One Bill\nWe hear a lot about cutting bills in personal finance and for good reason. Many of us overpay for far too many things. That's money that could be put toward other areas of need.\nInstead of doing a complete overhaul at once, find one bill to cut. You can even try a few different ones at the beginning of the year to see which one causes you the least amount of pain.\nYou can use a service like Trim to help you find subscriptions you don't use and cancel them. Take the savings and do something more productive with the cash.\nIf you need ideas, here's our list of 35+ ways to save money every month that will give you plenty of ways to start slashing.\nCommit to Saving a Certain Amount Each Week or Month\nSaving more money is one of the best simple goals to set. It can be anything from the need to build an emergency fund to paying off debt. Regardless of what you're saving for, commit to saving a certain amount each week or month.\nThe amount really doesn't matter. If you can only start small, say $10 or $20 at a time, do that \u2013 but quantify it to increase the chance of success. It also really doesn't matter the reason, whether it be to build a savings cushion, pay off debt or save for a vacation, the point is to save so you don't have to rely on a credit card.\nOnce you decide on the amount, open a savings account to stash the money.\nAlly Bank, for example, allows you to start with no minimum balance and pays at least 1.25% on your savings. To increase your chance of success, commit to automating the savings, so you don't even feel the cash going into your savings account.\nTake Advantage of Free Money\n'Free money,' you say? Yes, there is such a thing as free money, and that's with your employer-sponsored 401(k) plan \u2013 IF they match your contribution.\nSaving for retirement can be a challenge, especially if you are investing on a low income. Many, myself included years ago, use that as a reason not to invest or save for retirement. When you give up on a 401(k) match, you're giving up free money.\nI know it may be scary, but talk to your Human Resources department and ask them how to start using your 401(k). After you do the little bit of work required to set it up, it's all automated for you and will hum along in the background.\nAt the end of the year, you'll have 12 months worth of saving built up, and you'll feel great seeing how much you have saved for retirement.\nIf you don't have access to a 401(k), you can still start investing \u2013 even with little money. Ally Invest lets you start investing with no minimum balance and an industry-low $4.95 per trade.\nThe New Year is full of opportunities. You want to challenge yourself, but you also want to be realistic. There's nothing wrong with starting small, or having fun while working towards your goal.\nI believe that the combination of a quantifiable goal with some personality and fun is the best way to be effective, which will help you have a great year.\nThis article was written by John Schmoll from Frugal Rules and was legally licensed through the NewsCred publisher network.

        "raw_content": "This eerie green bioluminescent bacteria feeds off cowpats\nThe light in these vials is created by the luciferase enzyme\nHenrik Blomquist\nThis eerie light is produced naturally by bioluminescent bacteria that feed off an unusual source: cowpats. They are part of an installation at the newly opened Museo della Merda (the Shit Museum), run by Italian cheese farmer Gianantonio Locatelli, to celebrate the power of dung. The museum is housed in a small castle on the grounds of Locatelli's farm in Castelbosco, northern Italy, which is heated using energy from harvested methane. Installations in the nine rooms reflect the idea that waste can be transformed into something worthwhile, from old medical remedies that used excrement to a hut built out of dung bricks. \"Our main idea is that from shit, though a very lowly existing material, it is possible to obtain so many things,\" says Locatelli.\nThe idea came to Locatelli when he realised his 2,500 cows produce 150 tonnes of organic waste every day, and it was a challenge to get rid of it. So he decided to turn his farm into an industrial factory. Using eight anaerobic digesters, he extracts methane from the manure, which is then transformed into enough energy to power the farm several times over. \"But biogas only represents ten per cent of all the material that comes out of the digesters,\" says Locatelli. The solids are converted into two types of fertiliser and the leftovers turned into bricks that are sturdy enough to be used in construction. The future of waste looks bright.\nFrom cases to cars: the best products to buy in Pantone's 2017 colour of the year",

        "raw_content": "DC movies have 'room for improvement' admits Warner Bros CEO\nTime Warner boss says studio can \"do a little better on the creative\" when it comes to bringing beloved comic book heroes to the screen\nWarner Bros attempts at creating a shared cinematic universe based on its DC Comics properties haven't gone as well as arch-rival Marvel's. 2013's Superman reboot, Man of Steel, and 2016's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad have all been eviscerated by critics and many fans alike.\nIt seems Warner Bros has started paying attention, as Time Warner chairman and CEO Jeff Bewkes told investors this week there is \"a little room for improvement\" in what's officially known as the DC Extended Universe.\nA common complaint about the DC movies to date has been that they're far too dark, and miss the tone of the characters. Superman and Batman have both killed in this continuity, and while rare examples of them doing the same can be found on the comic book page, they're exceptions rather than the rule.\nThis dark tone, commonly attributed to Man of Steel and BvS director Zack Snyder's creative oversight of the line, could be up for an overhaul. Variety reports Bewkes adding \"the DC Comics characters [...] have a little more lightness in them than maybe what you saw in those movies, so we're thinking about that.\"\nFrom space dinosaurs to a flying party bus, these are the craziest sets from The LEGO Movie 2\nThe move to a lighter tone for the characters on film gathered pace in July, when DC Comics' chief creative officer Geoff Johns was promoted to DC entertainment president. Johns has had a long career with the publisher, working his way up as a writer from niche titles such as Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. to headline runs penning Justice League. His new role gives him greater oversight on how DC characters are translated to other media.\nHowever, Bewkes also defended Warners' choices on the properties so far.\n\"The strategy worked, the execution did deliver what we wanted to do. We can do a little better on the creative,\" he said. \"We're right on course or better. [...] The main thing was to launch DC and reinvigorate it with the fan base.\nBewkes also praised Ben Affleck's portrayal of Batman, and Gal Gadot's warm reception as Wonder Woman. The appearance of the Amazon warrior in the final act was the highlight of Dawn of Justice for many.\nIt hasn't all been bad news for Warner Bros when it comes to its DC properties. While both Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad were critically panned, and the former failed to pass the landmark $1bn box office gross it was expected to, the latter has had a warmer reception from viewers.\nDirector David Ayer's \"villains save the day' action piece currently has a 67 per cent 'fresh' rating from audiences, and has netted $720m (\u00a3551m) globally, on a budget of $175m (\u00a3134m). A spin-off, focusing on Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn, is already moving ahead.\nThe DC Extended Universe continues in 2017, with Gadot's solo Wonder Woman movie arriving on June 2, followed by team-up Justice League - which properly introduces heroes Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash, after only cameos thus far - on November 17.\nPeople aren't happy with Justice League's Rotten Tomatoes score\nBy Brain Raftery\nJurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and the long history of dodgy dinos\nTech Bro Translator: Zuckerberg's new year's resolution, annotated\nMeet the boy genius changing the way driverless cars see",

Just swipe up, inside of Google's search app (or from any home screen on a Nexus 4, 7 or 10), and Google Now activates. From there, the Google search app delivers today's weather, your Google Calendar appointments, directions to home or work (depending on what time of day it is), a heads up to nearby events, the score from your favorite sports team's latest game, boarding passes, package tracking, dinner reservations and a lot more.\nOn Tuesday, Engadget was tipped off to a YouTube video (that was shortly removed from the video sharing site) that is reportedly a Google ad promoting Google Now on the iPhone and iPad. If the video isn't real, it's a fantastic fake \u2013 the voice over, the artwork, the happy hipster pop soundtrack are all spot on Google. Meanwhile, French web developer, Francois Beaufort, found a Chrome flag for Google Now in the latest version of Chromium \u2013 a version of Google's Chrome Browser used by developers before updates hit the public, that would enable Google Now's usage in both Google's Chrome OS and Windows 8.\nYet while there are plenty of hints Google Now will venture outside of Android, there's still no confirmation.

        "raw_content": "How to Protect Your Company Against Online Threats\nAs the number of online threats shows no sign of going down, it's essential to know how to protect ourselves from them. It's no secret that home users aren't the only ones affected by this problem. Companies face the same issue. It doesn't even matter if they're small, medium or big businesses. Hackers have never and won't ever discriminate when they want to wreak havoc. From the minute a computer, tablet or smartphone is infected with malware, sensitive data can and will be damaged. More often than not, the owner of any of these gadgets has to pay a ransom. That is, if they want to see their important data back where it belongs.\nHaving a counterattack plan for your business is of great importance. Only so can you be certain that nothing valuable will get lost should a cyber-attack happen. Contrary to popular belief, small companies are more likely to get targeted by hackers than medium or big ones. Why? Simple: they think nothing will ever happen to them since they're not as popular as larger businesses. That is why they seldom, if ever, invest in IT security. This is the worst thing you, as a manager, can do. Relying on strong security software is the difference between success and failure. You don't want to shut the doors down on your business, now, do you? If you continue to not invest in excellent IT security, that's exactly what will happen.Cyber-attacks have, in the past couple of years, done damage to a large number of home users and companies. By the looks of it, hackers won't stop doing harmful things too soon.\nREAD: How To Remove Netalpha Virus From Your Phone\nLuckily for device owners, there are lots of methods which work very well against malware creators. Today we'll tell you how to protect your company against online threats!\nUse a VPN: A Virtual Private Network, or VPN in short, should be among your first three options in the fight against cyber attacks. VPNs are known for hiding IP addresses and traffic, as well as encrypting a connection. Before you choose a Virtual Private Network, though, think of your company's needs. You could, for instance, require faster connection speeds or zero traffic logs. In each of these cases, a different VPN would be needed. Choose well and you'll no longer have to worry about online threats.\nEncrypt data: We previously mentioned \"encrypting a connection\" via VPNs. Hackers all around the world love to look around for company-held data lying around unprotected. This can range from social security numbers belonging to employees to their home address and so much more. To avoid all that, businesses must enable their devices' full-disk encryption tools if they aren't already turned on. These tools keep crucial information very well-protected against malware attacks. As soon as they're enabled, an employee should also do this: set their PC to log out automatically after 5-10 minutes of not being used.\nEducate your employees on the benefits of IT security: Security needs to be a part of every business's culture. No matter if you work in a small, medium or large company, you must take every necessary precaution to ensure the safety of both you and your business. Hackers generally steal data with the unwilling help of employees. Apps and email servers are two of the ways malware can affect a device. If, for example, you notice something suspicious about one of your emails, tell your IT department about it.It's strongly recommended that you send your employees emails frequently, detailing types of cyber-attacks and how to keep them from happening. Better yet: prevent the people who work for you from using your business's Wi-Fi to open their personal emails.\nSecure your computer's hardware: Computer systems aren't the only routes used by a hacker to do damage. Server room doors must be kept locked and closed at all times. The majority of desktops and laptops use Kensington lock ports. These exist so that your work device is tied up to your desk. To make things even more secure, use cloud computing software.\nREAD: 8 Tips To Protect Your Computer and Smartphones From Virus\nInstall an efficient security solution: Protecting your company from online dangers can also be done via strong security software. Malicious threats won't be gone if you, as a business, only use your PC's firewall. Security solutions are more than recommended for companies. The market is very well stocked with these tools, so you don't have to worry about choosing one that fits your needs. You can find a list of the best ones here.Many businesses have been targeted by cyber-attacks throughout the years. This has caused a lot of them to shut down. If you don't want that to happen to your own company, read our tips on how to protect it against online threats!\nFriday, October 20, 2017WizyTechs Blogantivirus, Security, Sponsored Posts5 comments\nPage successfully bookmarked for future reference.\nThis article is well composed and straight to the point with detailed explanations\nThanks for this wonderful informative article.\nwow this is a nice update wizy...i love it\nBest essay writing service November 7, 2017 at 6:58 AM\nSuch a good post.

The shopping craze is in full swing, and taking a picture with Santa is a hot commodity. Specifically, at Great Northern Mall, where Mr. Claus is making an impact on some remarkable kids.\nSanta told us that touching the lives of those children, brings him joy. \"Knowing that I'm able to help children with special needs, our special needs program, we focus on keeping it fairly quiet, the lights are subdued ... something that keeps everyone calm.\"\nKris Kringle is beloved in the community. He's come to the Great Northern mall for years, being patient with kids who aren't so sure of him at first sight. You can visit him all season, but he really shines at a yearly event, designed for children who need a little extra care.\n\"We are very proud and fortunate to have a Santa who takes his time for our Soothing Santa event for kids with Autism and special needs. We give them a structured, environment that is sensory-free,\" Dana Wolfe, Great Northern Marketing Director Dana Wolfe said.\nThe consideration is something that parents like Jason Pasenow admire. His 10-year-old son, Landon, has battled cancer twice: First in 2010, when he was only 10 months old. Then, it struck again when he was 22 months old. Some of the treatments caused developmental issues in Landon, including taking away his ability to talk.\nSo, seeing his son perk up at the sight of Santa, is priceless to Pasenow.\n\"It's just so jolly. Landon likes loud figures. Santa's usually a loud figure. He likes the lights. So, it's a joy to bring him here.\"\nAnd, how does he feel about Mr. Claus? \"He's the best Santa,\" Pasenow said.\nWhat's Saint Nick's secret? His helpers say it's all about his tenderness and reassurance. If you ask him?\n\"To be quite truthful, I don't know. It makes me happy that I can make these kids happy,\" Santa told us.\nTo learn more on how to visit the Great Northern Mall Santa, click HERE.",

        "raw_content": "Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has requested a response from Christine Blasey Ford about whether she will testify before the committee.\nGrassley had called for Ford's attorneys to respond by 10 p.m. ET Friday to a request for her to testify before the panel next week. If they did not reply, Grassley said, the committee would move ahead with a vote on Kavanaugh's nomination on Monday.\nAn attorney for Ford called the deadline \"arbitrary\" and asked that Ford be granted an additional day to consider her options. \"[The deadline's] sole purpose is to bully Dr. Ford and deprive her of the ability to make a considered decision that has life-altering implications for her and her family,\" attorney Debra Katz wrote in an email to the committee's Republican staff.\nShortly before midnight, Grassley tweeted that he had granted an extension, telling Ford he wants to hear her testimony. He directly addressed Kavanaugh in a tweet, too, saying, \"I hope u understand. It's not my normal approach to b indecisive.\"\nThe committee has asked Ford to testify about her allegation on Wednesday, Sept. 26. Ford's lawyers and Senate Democrats have pressed for more time, arguing the hearing should take place next Thursday, among other conditions.\nIn a series of tweets earlier Friday, Trump cast doubt on Ford's charge, mentioning her by name for the first time: \"I have no doubt that, if the attack on Dr. Ford was as bad as she says, charges would have been immediately filed with local Law Enforcement Authorities by either her or her loving parents. I ask that she bring those filings forward so that we can learn date, time, and place!\"\nBut according to Department of Justice statistics, as of 2016 only 23 percent of rapes or sexual assaults were reported to the police.\nSpeaking to All Things Considered host Mary Louise Kelly, Kirsten Leimroth, a close friend of Ford's, said:\n\"I know a lot of people that things like this have happened to and they don't talk about it. You're embarrassed and ashamed and you don't think people will believe you. So I don't think someone will believe you ... I don't think it's unusual at all that she didn't tell anyone back them. She did ... tell a therapist several years ago, and I know that was one of the things this summer, she was waiting to get ahold of them to see if they had written it down, because she wanted something to back up that she wasn't just making up the story right now. And so I know she was glad that the therapist did have notes on that.\"\nIn another tweet, Trump said that \"radical left lawyers want the FBI to get involved NOW. Why didn't someone call the FBI 36 years ago?\"\nTrump's tweets follow an interview he gave to Fox's Sean Hannity on Thursday night in Las Vegas, where he appeared at a rally, in which the president first questioned why the FBI hadn't been called at the time of the alleged assault (which would likely have been handled by local law enforcement).\n\"You say, why didn't somebody call the FBI 36 years ago?\" Trump asked. \"I mean, you could also say when did this all happen, what is going on?\n\"To take a man like this and besmirch \u2014 now, with that being said, let her have her say and let's see how it all works out. But I don't think you can delay it any longer.\"\nIn an appearance in Portland on Friday, Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said she was appalled by Trump's tweet.\n\"First of all, we know that allegations of sexual assault \u2014 I'm not saying that's what happened in this case \u2014 but we know allegations of sexual assault are one of the most unreported crimes that exist. So I thought that the president's tweet was completely inappropriate and wrong.\"\nTrump's tweets came amid ongoing negotiations over whether and how Ford and Kavanaugh might testify before the Judiciary Committee. The committee initially scheduled a hearing for Monday and had invited Kavanaugh and Ford to testify. In a letter to the committee, Ford's lawyers said that she would be open to appearing before the panel, but that an appearance Monday \"was not possible.\" Ford's lawyers and Democrats on the panel want the FBI to investigate the charges \u2014 a move Grassley and other Republicans have dismissed.\nFord does not want Kavanaugh in the room when she testifies, and her team does not want an outside questioner on the Republican side to be brought in, a source in Ford's camp tells NPR's Nina Totenberg.\nOn Friday, Grassley's camp agreed to the demand that Kavanaugh not be in the committee room but rejected her request to only allow senators to question the two witnesses, saying it was within committee rules to permit staff attorneys to conduct the questioning.\nGrassley's Friday night letter to Ford's attorneys setting a deadline also rejected two key requests discussed in a conference call with committee staff from both parties on Thursday \u2014 to have Kavanaugh testify first and for the committee to subpoena other witnesses like Mark Judge. Ford alleges Judge was there at the time the incident took place when they were in high school.\nFord says that Kavanaugh groped her and tried to forcibly remove her clothes during a house party in Bethesda, Md., in the early 1980s. Kavanaugh has denied the accusation.\nIn another tweet Friday morning, Trump called Kavanaugh \"a fine man,\" who he said is under assault \"by radical left wing politicians who don't want to know the answers, they just want to destroy and delay.\" Trump continued, \"I go through this with them every single day in D.C.\"\nSenate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., speaking to conservative activists at the Value Voters Summit in Washington on Friday morning, expressed confidence Kavanaugh would be confirmed.\n\"You've watched the fight. You've watched the tactics. Here's what I want to tell you: In the very near future, Judge Kavanaugh will be on the United States Supreme Court,\" he said.\nTrump also lashed out at Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., in his fourth tweet on the Kavanaugh nomination Friday, renewing his accusation that Feinstein and Democrats held a letter from Ford in which she first raised the accusation against Kavanaugh \"only to release it with a bang after the hearings were OVER,\" which Trump asserted was \"done very purposefully to Obstruct & Resist & Delay.\" Trump continued, \"let her testify, or not, and TAKE THE VOTE!\"\nFeinstein tweeted this week that Ford had sought confidentiality and \"I honored that. It wasn't until the media outed her that she decided to come forward. \"",

Inside the church, which has a single nave, the austere simplicity typical of the Cistercian style pervades. The monastic order was indeed founded on the principle of austerity. In one of the chapels located to the right of the main entrance a sculptural masterpiece of the Roman era is exhibited: the famous Sarcophagus of Phaedra. With perfect lines and balanced proportions the bas-reliefs on all four sides depict the myth of Hippolytus and Phaedra in meaningful illustrations evoking a sense of wonder and compassion for the tragic story of the two lovers, annihilated by unrequited love. A second chapel hosts a lovely sculpture of the Madonna and Child by Gagini. Also admire the crucifix of \u201cThe Lord of the Ship\u201d which inspired the famous playwright and Nobel prize winner Luigi Pirandello to write his theatrical drama entitled \u201cThe Festival of the Lord of the Ship\u201d, a humorous and grotesque single act which illustrates the contradictions between sacred and profane in human nature.\nThe Church of St. Nicholas is located next to the Archaeological Museum \u201cPietro Griffo\u201d and on the side facing Roman Hellenistic Quarter.\nThe parking area adjoining to the \u201cPietro Griffo\u201d Regional Archaeological Museum is recommended.\nThe Church of St. Nicholas is open during religious services.\nOpen Monday to Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.\nThe Church of St. Nicholas is free entry.\nA voluntary contribution is welcome\nChurch of St. Nicholas: contacts for information and visits during other than those indicated",

Yates Stadium, which is located at the intersection of Longstreet Road and Bybee.\nThen, on July 3, American Legion Post and Auxillary No. 618 will host its fireworks show at 13054 East FM 1097.\nLast year a historic drought led to the ban of all fireworks displays in Montgomery County, prompting organizers of the inaugural Willis Independence Day Celebration to substitute a laser light show. The fireworks show is back, and so is the 20-minute laser show, said Rod Broussard, chairman of the Willis Economic Development Council\u2019s events committee.\n\u201cWe try to grow each year,\u201d he said.\nThe Independence Day Celebration festivities begin at 4 p.m. June 30 in the parking lot adjacent to the Yates stadium. There, the public can enjoy a variety of free food, including hot dogs, soft drinks, snow cones, popcorn and cotton candy, Broussard said.\nMoonwalks, a beach ball toss and face painting are among the activities for children, while a number of vendors will have their wares on display.\nThe Charlie Lucas Band is to provide musical entertainment. A patriotic program featuring the Freedom Flight of Lone Star Executive Airport with a flyover of the stadium commences at 6 p.m.\nThat hour-long program also includes a parachutist landing on the stadium\u2019s 50-yard-line.\nThe fireworks show is slated for 9:20 p.m..\nBroussard said 1,500 attended last year\u2019s festivities.\n\u201cWe expect to double that this year,\u201d he said.\nFor more information, contact Broussard at 936-890-1111 or email rodlbroussard@msn.com.\nHot dogs and snow cones will be part of the post\u2019s celebration on July 3, said Daryl Mayhood, 1st vice commander. The fireworks will start at approximately 9 p.m., and the entire program is to take about 40 minutes.\nParking in the front of the post will be available, Mayhood said.\nThe Roman Forest Fourth of July parade is scheduled for 10 a.m. July 4. Roman Forest is located east of U.S. 59 on Roman Forest Boulevard. The Sundance Head Band is to perform starting at 5 p.m., followed by the fireworks at dusk.",

        "raw_content": "https://www.yourconroenews.com/neighborhood/moco/opinion/article/Our-rights-at-risk-without-militias-9280176.php\nOur rights at risk without militias\nThe Courier has been deluged with letters defending the Second Amendment right to bear arms. Many even say if we lose one of our rights, we could lose all of our rights. I agree. But I am disappointed in a way.\nThe Second Amendment says \u201cA well regulated militia being necessary the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.\u201d All of the letters to the editor only defend the last 14 words of the amendment. Nobody is defending our constitutional right to have a well-regulated militia. Ever since the Oklahoma City bombing that killed all those children in the first-floor day care, the word militia has become taboo.\nIn the current Texas legislative session, there is no discussion of allocating tax dollars to reinstate the state militia. We may need armed citizens to defend Texans\u2019 constitutional rights. Like the right of the city of Conroe to annex April Sound. Conroe may come after Walden or Panorama next; facing a well-regulated armed militia would make them think twice about standing up against the state constitution. It would save a lot of legal fees.\nThe entire Constitution is sacred. Our forefathers knew organized armed citizens were the key to ensure all parts of the Constitution are defended. We need them to defend the 27th Amendment, which guarantees Congress\u2019 pay will not be reduced in between elections. We need them to defend the 21st Amendment, which gives every American the constitutional right to drink as much alcohol as they want whenever they want.\nFor some reason, militias melted away a hundred years ago. Since it is part of the Second Amendment of the Constitution, it is time to reconstitute militias because every part of our constitution is important to modern America. Without well-regulated militias, all of our other rights and freedoms are at grave risk.\nVacate court decisions that expunge God from education\nIn my last four letters, I have given you the birth and continuation of our government, of the people, by the people and for the people, under God; a government, which has endured for some 170 years and evolved into the most powerful nation on earth, under God.\nAt the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin made this observation: \u201cThus I consent, sir, to this Constitution because I expect no better, and because I am not sure that it is not the best. The opinions I have had of its errors I sacrifice to the public good.\u201d\nAs Paul Harvey would say, \u201cNow the rest of the story.\u201d Since the late 1940s, the ACLU and other enemies to our nation, under God, consistently have brought lawsuits to take God, moral government and law out of our schools and education system, and in turn, in the next generation, out of America. In 1960, the U.S. Supreme Court, with no objections by the almost predominate religious majority, declared, \u201cIt banned all forms of teaching, which suggests or recognizes God.\u201d This one court decree destroyed everything our founding fathers pledged their lives, liberty and sacred honor to ratify. It was the demolition of the foundation; and, in turn, our moral and civil government and laws reduced to an indefinable heap of rubble. We are now a nation without moral government and law.\nWe no longer have \u201cunion\u201d or national security; no longer have a government of the people, by the people, for the people; it has destroyed oaths, and thus our judicial system; and it has literally destroyed our constitutional government.\nWhen the Supreme Court denies the being of God, promises, covenants and oaths, which are the bonds of human society, can have no hold on that society. The taking away of God, though but even in thought, dissolves all. Those by their atheism undermine and destroy all religion and can have no pretense of religion whereupon to challenge the privilege of a toleration.\nWhenever God shall be overthrown, our present Republican forms of government, and all the blessings which flow from them, must fall with them.\nWe must vacate all court decisions that expunge God, His moral government and laws from our education system and our nation; this is the only answer.\nRonald O.

        "raw_content": "Locals speak out in favor of expansion\nArea residents and officials spoke favorably at a public scoping meeting held by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on Jan. 6 in Glen Rose about the expansion at Comanche Peak, despite vocal opposition.\nThe meeting focused on the environmental review, in which environmental impacts are identified and evaluated by a team of experts.\nReview topics included land use, water use, aquatic ecology and terrestrial ecology. Karen Hadden, executive director of the Sustainable Energy and Economic Development (SEED) Coalition attended the meeting and felt using unapproved design places an extra burden on the public.\n\ufffdIt puts the burden on the public to be nuclear experts,\ufffd Hadden said.\nLuminant Generation submitted its application Sept. 19 to build and operate two U.S. Advanced Pressurized Water Reactors (US-APWR) at the site.\nInformation provided by Luminant during the meeting said Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), a Japanese-based firm designed the reactor and submitted an application to the NRC in December 2007 to certify the design.\nBy applying for a Combined License (COL) and using a non-certified design, stakeholders do not have a chance to review the plans, Hadden said.\nUnder NRC regulations, the COL review and the design certification review can run parallel. The review process for new reactor design involves certifying standard reactor designs through a rulemaking, which certifies a design for 15 years. At the meeting, Hadden also said the new reactors couldn\ufffdt be built fast enough to keep pace with growing energy demands and Luminant should stay focused on energy efficiency and energy storage.\n\ufffdI maintain these reactors are not necessary,\ufffd Hadden said.\nBut area residents and officials spoke up, showing support for Luminant and the Comanche Peak expansion project.\nHood County Commissioner Steve Berry said he supported the project and felt it would be good for the local economies. Somervell County Commissioner Mike Ford added at a Commissioner\ufffds Court meeting Jan. 12 that although the economic benefits were a factor in the widespread support of the expansion, there was more to it.\n\ufffdThat\ufffds not the only reason we do (support the Comanche Peak expansion),\ufffd Ford said. \ufffdIt\ufffds part of a smart energy solution.\ufffd\nGRISD board president Marilyn Phillips said Luminant has been a good neighbor to the school and has earned the trust of the community.\n\ufffdI realize there is some danger, but they have proven themselves and earned our trust,\ufffd Phillips said.\nKevin Taylor, general manager of the Somervell County Water District, also spoke in favor of Luminant\ufffds application.\n\ufffdI\ufffdm here today in support of the expansion of Comanche Peak,\ufffd Taylor said.\nAnd local resident and naturalist Rod Hale said he supported the plant expansion project and did not feel the reactors were a threat to natural flora.\n\ufffdEverything is looking pretty good right now,\ufffd Hale said.\nInformation about nuclear waste storage was also provided at the meeting.\nComanche Peak stores used fuel, or spent fuel, in pools on site. After cooling off for five years, the spent fuel can be relocated to dry cask storage, which would free up space in the pool for newer spent fuel.\nComanche Peak is not licensed for on-site dry cask storage, but even with dry cask storage, a permanent waste repository is still needed but has not yet been developed.\nA scoping summary report is expected to be released in June. The report will include comments from the meeting as well as responses to the questions raised.\nNRC staff will consider written comments on the scoping process. Comments should be submitted no later than Feb. 17 either by mail to the Chief, Rules and Directives Branch, Division of Administrative Services, Office of Administration, Mailstop TWB-05-B01M, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, or via e-mail at Comanche.COLEIS@nrc.gov.\nCitizens also have 60 days from the notice of intent to file a petition to intervene. The notice of intent to build two nuclear reactors was published in the federal register on Dec. 19, 2008.",

To carry out this unprecedented feat he puts together a ruthless and highly organised gang. Their progress and changes in leadership take place over twenty-five years, from the 1970\u2032s into the \u201990\u2032s, and are inseparably intertwined with the dark history of modern Italy: terrorism, kidnappings and corruption at the highest levels of government.

It\u2019s now 1981 and the Rome crew are in disarray: Libanese is in the morgue, full of holes, which sparks a race to find the killers and exact revenge before the police can make arrests.

        "raw_content": "Transcript: Mayor de Blasio Appears Live On The Bernie Show With Senator Bernie Sanders\nSenator Bernie Sanders: Hello, everybody. Today, we have a great show, and I am very excited to welcome to the show the mayor of the largest city in the United States of America, Bill de Blasio of New York City. Bill, thank you so much for being with us.\nMayor Bill de Blasio: Bernie, what a joy to be with you. It\u2019s a much warmer environment than when we were together last time at my inauguration day outdoors. So, thank you so much for having me.\nSenator Sanders: Bill was very, very kind to invite me to give him the Oath of Office, and it was freezing, but we managed to survive the day.\nMayor: We\u2019re still here.\nSenator Sanders: And we\u2019re excited about your second term. Alright, Bill, there\u2019s a whole lot to discuss. Let me begin it off by asking you \u2013 what does it mean in the year 2018 \u2013 and you\u2019re beginning your second term now \u2013 to be a progressive mayor in an era of Donald Trump. What does that mean?\nMayor: Ironically, it means there\u2019s a world of possibilities, and I think the election of Donald Trump was not the essence of what happened in 2015 and 2016. I think what was happening already since the Occupy Wall Street movement and manifesting all over the country locally, including in places like New York City, and culminated in your campaign, was an obvious movement for progressive change. I fundamentally believe we\u2019re entering a new progressive era. I can certainly say that about New York City. Something very big is happening in New York City in terms of fast, big progressive changes that I think are going to be the norm, going forward \u2013 and real, different politics. So, I would just say \u2013 look, despite Donald Trump, the energy levels, the organization levels, the number of people getting involved \u2013 a lot of it started with your campaign \u2013 has deepened, like we saw in the Women\u2019s March last weekend. I believe Trump is not somebody that we should see as, you know, sort of, a door-closer. I think he inadvertently is opening a new door.\nSenator Sanders: Okay, let\u2019s just jump in. I\u2019ve got about a million questions here \u2013 we have a limited amount of time. I worry, and I know you worry, that democracy itself \u2013 the ability of people to bring about change, to participate in the political process is now undergoing a real threat.\nMayor: Correct.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, you\u2019re the mayor of the largest city in the country \u2013 what are you doing in New York City to revitalize democracy, to bring people together, to have a campaign finance system so that billionaires \u2013 and I guess in New York City you have a little bit of experience about billionaires buying elections.\nSenator Sanders: What are you doing to lead the country to make sure we have a vibrant democracy?\nMayor: Here\u2019s something good I can say about New York City \u2013 my predecessor was the richest man in the city. I\u2019m someone that doesn\u2019t have a lot of money. The only way I got elected is because we have a progressive campaign finance system, and one that survived the reality of Citizen\u2019s United because local laws still matter. And we have strict campaign spending limits, strict donation limits, and matching funds that allow even candidates like me to get to an office like this.\nSenator Sanders: What does that mean exactly? You know, Mary Smith wants to run for mayor. How can she run if she doesn\u2019t have a lot of money?\nMayor: Mary Smith can raise a lot of grassroots contributions and they get matched six to one, which is a powerful magnifier. So, I\u2019ll give you an example \u2013 our system allows you to raise up to $175 from a New York City resident and get it matched six to one. That relatively modest donor suddenly just gave $1,000, right? If you give $10, it gets matched six to one. And that encourages every-day people to get involved. To your point, that encourages democracy, that encourages involvement. And I could never have gotten elected because the establishment forces in New York City were never going to support me, but I got those smaller donations. And it also comes with a reason that people get invested and involved, just like we saw so amazingly on your campaign \u2013 people giving a little bit of money also gets them involved.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, and that withstood legal challenges from the Citizen\u2019s United decision?\nMayor: Absolutely, it has.\nSenator Sanders: So your message is that other cities around America could do the same thing?\nMayor: Do it yourself. Take matters into your own hands and create the local change. And I\u2019ll say one other thing, because we\u2019re talking about how to reinvigorate democracy \u2013 every victory reinvigorates democracy. So, for example, when I came into office we had a big fight in the city to get rid of the broken policy of stop and frisk that was harming the relationship between police and community. We got rid of it. We got safer. We had a big fight to achieve paid sick leave for another half-million New Yorkers. That fight \u2013 that grassroots fight won the day. That gets people involved.\nSenator Sanders: Right. Okay, let me jump into some of the big issues. You have been active in early-childhood education, in general. You know, I know that people are not going to have decent paying jobs unless they have a quality education, often a higher education. Talk about New York City and education.\nMayor: Number one \u2013 it\u2019s literally the number-one item on my agenda when I ran. I said we\u2019re going to have pre-K for all of our kids \u2013 full-day, high-quality pre-K for free. And that meant that tens of thousands of families would also have a huge economic burden lifted \u2013 working class people, middle class people. In New York City, you could pay over $1,000 a month for pre-K easily. We literally took that burden off. I walked in the door \u2013 about 20,000 kids in New York City were getting full-day pre-K. Now, it\u2019s almost 70,000. It is a universal right. We added a whole other grade to our school system. We saw what was possible. And, Bernie, this is part of what I feel deeply \u2013 big changes are happening in New York City. Something very different is happening, which energizes me to tell other people we did it, you can do it, aim high. So, now we\u2019re going for the three-year-old level. Our stated policy is, by the end of this term, every three-year-old gets early childhood education for free.\nSenator Sanders: For free?\nMayor: For free.\nSenator Sanders: Okay, congratulations. This is a crisis that we don\u2019t talk about here in Washington very much. You know, I know that kids who do not have quality early-childhood education are not going to do well in school. They\u2019re going to drop out. They\u2019re not going to get the jobs we need. So, congratulations for being a leader on that. Let me talk about an issue \u2013 certainly applicable to New York City \u2013 it\u2019s applicable to almost every major city in America, and that is the issue of affordable housing.\nSenator Sanders: Somebody \u2013 what are the rents in New York City?\nMayor: Oh God \u2013 it\u2019s crazy now. I mean, you know, a working family can be facing $2,000 or more a month in rent easily in many, many parts of New York City.\nSenator Sanders: Wow.\nMayor: It could be much more too. I mean, it\u2019s \u2013 and you know this is the double-edged sword of gentrification. As the City got safer \u2013 and it\u2019s true in other cities \u2013 now, suddenly everyone wants to live there and the prices get out of reach for working people, and if government doesn\u2019t intervene \u2013 I think you and I both share a very stringent view of the problems of the free enterprise system. This is one where the free enterprise system marginalizes people are forces them out of their own neighborhood. The only way to stop that is through serious government intervention.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, talk about it. I know this is a problem in San Francisco, it\u2019s a problem in Birmingham, Alabama, it\u2019s a problem all over this country. What can you do? What are you doing in New York City to address it?\nMayor: And look, I feel for San Francisco because \u2013 you know, I remember the old San Francisco, and, today, San Francisco is not a place for working people and that\u2019s not acceptable to me. We said New York City must remain a place for working people. If we\u2019re not economically diverse, we\u2019re no longer New York City. Our entire spirit \u2013 you know it well, having grown up in Brooklyn.\nSenator Sanders: I grew up in a rents-controlled apartment in Brooklyn, yes.\nMayor: And what a difference it meant for your family.\nSenator Sanders: Yes, that\u2019s right.\nMayor: So, today in New York City, we still have rent controls of different types and they reach over 2 million people.\nSenator Sanders: 2 million people are living in rent controlled \u2013\nMayor: Rent stabilization and rent control \u2013 and that\u2019s a huge difference maker. And we, in my government, we said we\u2019re going to make sure that if the time of year comes to assess whether there should be a rent increase, we\u2019re going to have a fair estimation that respects tenants as well as land lords. Guess what we ended up with? Two years of a rent freeze. Two years whereby government decision, we said the landlords actually did not have a reason for a rent increase and the people deserved a rent freeze. We did that \u2013 never been done before. This is an example of something that would have been probably \u2013 conventional wisdom would have said five, 10 years ago that\u2019s impossible. We did it and we proved it was possible.\nSenator Sanders: What is \u2013 this gentrification stuff is very difficult \u2013 very difficult. What do you see the long-term solution to making cities livable for working people, not forcing people out of communities that they grew up in that they love \u2013 where they want to live. How do you address that issue?\nMayor: Look, wherever possible to put these same kind of standards in place that New York and a few other places have. There should be some form of rent regulation everywhere in urban America given with what we\u2019re dealing with today. There should be another thing we do \u2013 free lawyers to stop illegal evictions.\nSenator Sanders: You \u2013 say your word on that one.\nMayor: With the City of New York now, and our City Council \u2013 great leadership on this \u2013 will provide a lawyer for free to any New Yorker who makes $50,000 or less \u2013 they get the full legal service for free. If they make more than $50,000, they still have access to legal advice. But the idea is to stop illegal evictions, stop harassment by landlords, which is being exacerbated by the ever-growing costs. The greed of some landlords \u2013 and I want to be fair, not all. There are plenty of decent landlords too. But the greed of some is such that they will stoop to the most illegal and unscrupulous things to get tenants out and jack up the rent for someone new. We\u2019re not fighting back by giving publicly funded legal help to stop that. That\u2019s the difference. You can do that anywhere \u2013 with Legal Aid lawyers around the country \u2013\nSenator Sanders: [Inaudible] City attorneys?\nMayor: No, it\u2019s Legal Aid, Legal Services and we fund it, and it makes a huge difference. That\u2019s one thing \u2013 one other thing I mentioned is we passed a law \u2013 we\u2019re very proud of it \u2013 that requires the creation of affordable housing in major new developments. So, for example, if a developer comes along \u2013 and you remember this from your days as Mayor of Burlington \u2013 developers come a long with all sorts of schemes but they realize they can\u2019t get anything done if the City doesn\u2019t approve. We now have a law that says, if you want the approval, you have to provide affordable housing. And we\u2019ve got stipulated amounts. It\u2019s at minimum 20, but in most cases 25 or 30 percent of the apartments have to be affordable or else you cannot get a permit to build. That\u2019s a game-changer too, and in a lot of cities you could be doing that now because the values and the desire of people to be in the city is growing all of the time. Why not use the power of the public sector to fight back and bargain hard \u2013 strike a harder bargain because developers for too long in too many cities just got what they want.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, let me changes gears. An issue that you campaigned on \u2013 it\u2019s an issue that\u2019s reverberating all over this country. Two-fold \u2013 number one, we want to keep out citizens safe. We want to do it in a way that we go forward preventing crime. We want reform in our broken criminal justice system. What are you doing in New York City?\nMayor: Bernie, there\u2019s another area where something very big and something very different is happening in New York City, because I always say we didn\u2019t start the mass incarceration crisis but we will end it in New York City. We have consistently reduced our jail population. Our jail system now has under 9,000 inmates. It used to be over 20,000 just two decades ago, and we\u2019re driving it down steadily.\nSenator Sanders: Is that true of the State as well? Or just of the City?\nMayor: I don\u2019t know about the whole rest of the State, but I can tell you one thing the NYPD is doing that\u2019s crucial to this \u2013 we realized that arrests were being overused in the previous approach before I came into office with my police commissioners. We\u2019ve reduced arrests \u2013 this is an amazing figure \u2013 the last four years, 2017 compared to 2013, 100,000 fewer arrests \u2013 100,000 fewer arrests \u2013 at the same time, consistently safer. We\u2019re the safest big city in America. The level of crime in New York City right now \u2013 major crime \u2013 is consistent with the 1950s. The number of homicides \u2013 you\u2019d have to go back to when the Brooklyn Dodgers were playing at Ebbets Field in 1951.\nSenator Sanders: That\u2019s a sensitive issue, we don\u2019t want to go there.\nMayor: I know, I know, I got controversial there. But literally, we\u2019ve had the lowest number of homicides since 1951.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, explain that \u2013 fewer arrests, lower crime. Now, there are a lot of factors \u2013\nMayor: Of course.\nSenator Sanders: \u2013 because this is not just happening in New York City, it\u2019s happening around the country as well. What\u2019s your understanding? What\u2019s your analysis?\nMayor: My analysis is that the policies that created a rift between police and community were not only counter-productive in terms of respecting people and trying to create communication, which then made possible things like the overuse of stop and frisk, overuse of arrests \u2013 were creating a wedge between police and community. They were very disrespectful in particular to young men of color, and were denigrating to young men of color. By ending those policies, we opened up communication, mutual respect, actual desire to have a constant dialog between police and community.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, this is \u2013 we did that when I was mayor as well. We introduced community policing. This is a difficult issue \u2013 easier to talk about than to see take place out on the streets in reality. What does it mean out on the streets? Now, I know because I\u2019ve been traveling \u2013 you know, I\u2019ve traveled all over the country \u2013 it amazes me to the degree \u2013 especially among people of color \u2013 the degree to which they saw police not as somebody who could help them but as somebody to be feared \u2013 what a terrible thing \u2013 what a terrible thing. And obviously, that\u2019s exactly what you want to prevent. You want to see police departments and communities working together. How are you doing that out in reality?\nMayor: What you said is so powerful, Bernie, because one day an officer said to me just spontaneously \u2013 he said that more and more people are now coming up to him. And I said, why do you think? And he literally said spontaneously \u2013 people will talk to you if they\u2019re not afraid of you. And I think it is about a neighborhood policing philosophy that encourages dialog. Literally, our officers are giving community residents their personal cell phone number and email address so they can get to them directly. And what I\u2019m hearing from our officers who are part of the neighborhood policing imitative is that folks are reaching out to them with the kind of information they always wished as officers they\u2019d had.\nSenator Sanders: They know where the drug deals are taking place.\nMayor: Of course. Every community of every background all over the world \u2013 you know, there are community residents who can tell you the real deal, right? This is as old as time itself. There are village elders in rural communities all over the world and in neighborhoods all over the cities of America. There are people looking out the window seeing what\u2019s really going on, or who can tell an officer who\u2019s involved with drugs, where there\u2019s an illegal weapon, where there\u2019s a gang problem brewing. Our officers are getting that flow of information now, and it\u2019s making a huge difference. And here\u2019s what I hear from the officers \u2013 they\u2019re getting a lot more thank you\u2019s from community members because the community members now feel that\u2019s their officer. That officer is there for them. It\u2019s making a big difference.\nSenator Sanders: Is there really \u2013 are you seeing a change in mentality among the officers themselves?\nMayor: Yes, and we \u2013\nSenator Sanders: And let\u2019s be clear, let\u2019s back this up \u2013 you know, I know, being a cop is not an easy job.\nMayor: It\u2019s very tough, and by the way all of society\u2019s ills including the mental health challenges that never got address were put on our officers to somehow address. That was very unfair to begin with. We\u2019ve got to go to the root causes of those problems. But here\u2019s what I do hear from the officers consistently \u2013 they\u2019re not being told \u2018go make quotas, go arrest a bunch of people, go stop and frisk a bunch of people.\u2019 They\u2019re being told \u2018build relationships, get to know people.\u2019 It\u2019s much more gratifying for our officers. They\u2019re getting the gratitude they deserve. But I\u2019ll also tell you some of this was retraining. We retrained the entire police force in how to deescalate conflict. We are now going to retrain the entire force in implicit bias and how to weed out the biases that every single one of us as humans beings have.\nSenator Sanders: Now you mentioned something to me, and see if my memory is right on this when I was in New York City, you said something interesting. All across this country with Black Lives Matter and other organizations are about is the use of lethal force when it should not be used, and we\u2019ve seen \u2013 God knows \u2013 too many examples of this. You mentioned to me that the number of times a weapon is discharged in New York City now is significantly less than it used to be.\nSenator Sanders: In other words, there is now \u2013 I presume \u2013 an effort to use lethal force, which is [inaudible] sometimes has to be used but as little as possible. Say a word about that.\nMayor: So here\u2019s a \u2013 here\u2019s a context for you. 8.5 million people now live in New York City. We have 36,000 police officers, and there are 365 days in a year. Under 100 times in 2016 any of our officers discharged their weapon, and a number of those times were either something that was accidental or dealing with a threatening pit bull or something like that. Only a few dozen times was in actually in the line of duty in a conflict situation. Look at the sheer enormity of the situation we\u2019re talking about in a city of that size, all those officers, so many days. The restraint levels that our officers are showing are absolutely extraordinary. Their training is telling them to show that restraint, and they\u2019re doing a great job with it.\nSo this is another part of how we end these tragedies is helping our officers \u2013 you know, our officers didn\u2019t use to get this kind of training. Thank about this. Airline pilots, lawyers, doctors got retrained all the time. Police officers in New York City only got to go to the firing range and work on their marksmanship until under first Commissioner Bratton and now Commissioner O\u2019Neill they get retrained regularly in how to work on these tactics to reduce the escalation of conflict.\nSenator Sanders: And to use lethal force only when absolutely necessary.\nMayor: Only when necessary.\nSenator Sanders: Alright, let me touch on a few other issues. Climate change, environmental degradation \u2013 it\u2019s not a New York City issue. It\u2019s a global issue.\nSenator Sanders: You\u2019re the largest city in the States. You\u2019ve got a lot of resources. What are you doing about climate change and protecting the environment? I remember I was in the South Bronx a couple of years ago, and I was told \u2013 just I think it was one out of four children was dealing with asthma. Does that sound right?\nMayor: It\u2019s a very high number.\nSenator Sanders: What are you guys doing \u2013 what role can you play in taking on the fossil fuel industry?\nMayor: I\u2019ll say this for New York City. We just acted, and I want to urge every city, every county, every state to do the same \u2013 divest. Divest from the fossil fuel industry. Let\u2019s help bring the death knell to this industry that\u2019s done so much harm. Like the tobacco companies that were successfully sued decades ago. We\u2019re also suing five of the biggest including Exxon Mobil for example who systematically poisoned the Earth, knew about it, covered it up, explained it away, tried to hook people more and more on their product. We think that what every city can do and every locality \u2013 use your litigation power to go at these bad actors and get the resources back. We\u2019re looking for billions to make up for what they\u2019ve done to us. The cost of Sandy \u2013 Hurricane Sandy \u2013 alone in New York City was over $19 billion and we\u2019re having to pay billions and billions more each year for resiliency. But the other thing is by divesting, let\u2019s prove that this is an economically unviable industry. This is an industry that its assets should stay in the ground, and it\u2019s not the industry of the future.\nSenator Sanders: So by divesting \u2013 what does that mean? New York City funds are no longer being invested in fossil fuel industries?\nMayor: In the next five years, because it will take a wind down, $5 billion in New York City pension funds will be removed from fossil fuels companies, and we have set a specific deadline. We have a dollar goal, and we have said we\u2019re doing this. We will find other good investments. We want to protect our retirees for sure, but not at the cost of investing in something that\u2019s poisoning the Earth. And let\u2019s use our economic power. I think this is one of the most important points. At the grassroots, there\u2019s a lot of economic power.\nSenator Sanders: Are the league of cities in town with the Conference of Mayors addressing this issue as well?\nMayor: There\u2019s a tremendous focus. I think getting each locality to do the more radical things they can do like divestment, like litigation against the oil companies, that\u2019s going to take a grassroots movement. There\u2019s been incredible movement in New York City. I want to give them credit because I have to tell you \u2013 when I first raised it to experts in my administration they raised all sorts of problems, roadblocks, challenges, but that movement kept pushing us and saying divestment would make a huge difference. And we need that grassroots movement to get other places to do it as well.\nSenator Sanders: Is New York City becoming more sustainable? Are you investing in sustainable energy in non-fossil fuel transportation?\nMayor: Absolutely. For example we right now in our city we\u2019ve set a goal of 80 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. But then when Trump pulled out of the Paris agreement, we said we have to go even farther. We have a very vigorous mandate on the buildings in our city, which is actually where most of the pollution comes from in New York City, that they have to reduce their emissions. They have to put in conservation, or we will fine them. Real fine \u2013 fines that can be as high as $1 million per building.\nSenator Sanders: Conservation means weatherization?\nMayor: Weatherization and changing and updating equipment and all sorts of things \u2013 putting in the right monitors so they use less energy. We\u2019re going an all-electric City car fleet. We\u2019re putting up electric charging stations for electric vehicles all over the five boroughs. These are things that help move the whole situation because they also tell people \u2013 for example, if you want an electric car, it\u2019s not so easy to have one in a place like New York City right now. We want to show people this is going to be a much better option going forward because those stations will be around for you.\nSanders: You\u2019re an advocate of single payer.\nSanders: What role can the largest city in the country play in the fight for health care for all?\nMayor: Well first by supporting what you have done with Medicare for all and I really want to thank you for that because you know, everything you did in your campaign changed the politics of America. And I\u2019ve said this to you, you know, from the bottom of my heart \u2013 the American political process will never be the same because of what you created. And that means not only that people at the grassroots now understand their power and that you can approach a political campaign for elective office differently, it also means you can approach each and every issue along the way differently, same organizing approach.\nSo, for us in New York City, we want to use our political power, our consumer power ect. to fight for a single payer system. Look, we are trying to get this done at the state level. It\u2019s hard to do locally but you can do it at the state level. We will play a big, we have a big presence in the state of New York so we are going to fight for that change. We need to make some political change, as you know unfortunately New York still has a republican State Senate, we need to change that this year. And that would open the door to single payer legislation having a real shot in our state capital.\nBut I think it the same basic principle, organizing at the grassroots for change \u2013 I think what Medicare for all now means to people is also very different since the fight to save the Affordable Care Act. You see the attitudes of the American people changing rapidly now on healthcare. And what you put forward is making more and more sense to more and more people.\nSanders: Okay, let me go to a more political question, a really interesting question. You have a city which has people, I suspect from every country on earth.\nMayor: Literally.\nSanders: You got zillions of languages and everything else \u2013 amazing diversity. You are the Mayor of this city \u2013 unlike the President of the United States you want to bring people together and not divide them up. How do you do that in a city of such complexity and diversity?\nMayor: By telling people they matter. You know one of the most powerful things in the last few years has been the Black Lives Matter movement \u2013 the phrase I think opened minds rightfully. If the society and the government communicate to people they matter, a lot of other things can be possible. If you denigrate people, if you devalue them, which has been too much of the history of our country, then it is understandable that there will be not only division there will be hopelessness.\nSo our message constantly is that all the communities of the city matter. By making things universal, very consistent with everything that you fought through. For an example, giving people Pre-K for all says you matter \u2013 we are investing in you, regardless of your background, regardless of what language you speak. We protect immigrants of all backgrounds. We \u2013\nSanders: Alright, say a word on that because obviously right \u2013\nSanders: We are in a terrible, terrible struggle right here in Washington \u2013 immigration reform, on protecting 800,000 young Dreamers. What are doing in New York on that?\nMayor: The message we give in New York City is we are going to respect everyone regardless of documentation status. And in New York City that means half a million people Bernie. I mean it\u2019s amazing, think about it \u2013 in the country, almost 12 million undocumented folks who I always remind people, are essential to the American economy. You could debate how they got here and what happened before but right now there is 12 million people who are a part of making this economy work and are in each and every community in America including a lot of rural communities, essential to the rural economy.\nSanders: Agriculture, big time.\nMayor: Right, why don\u2019t we push back on the divisive forces by talking about what\u2019s really happening on the ground. So, in New York City, half a million New Yorkers \u2013 they are New Yorkers, I don\u2019t care in the first instances about their documentation status, they are my fellow New Yorkers. We tell them that we are not going to ask them their documentation status. Our police will not ask and have not for decades and the schools and the public hospitals \u2013 no one is ever going to ask you a documentation status. We want to give you as much opportunity to live a good life as anyone else.\nGod forbid there\u2019s an effort to deport someone, we now \u2013 working with our City Council, have legal services available to assist families in fighting deportation because you know what happens a lot of time, the bread winner in the family gets deported and the kids get left behind which is the most unfair and also, you know, stupid for the society, stupid possibility in the world that you would break up a family and leave the kids behind and have to fend for themselves. So we help in that way.\nAnd one thing I\u2019m also very proud of \u2013 we have an ID card which has become a very positive thing, ID NYC and it says, you know a lot of folks undocumented they can\u2019t get a lease, they can\u2019t get a bank account, they can\u2019t visit a hospital, someone, a loved one in the hospital. They can\u2019t visit their kid\u2019s school without an ID.\nWe created a New York City only ID, IDNYC \u2013 you\u2019re not asked your documentation status, you get the ID card, it opens up a world of possibilities but for a lot of immigrants, documented and undocumented, they\u2019ve said they feel they belong, that they are being respected and valued because they have the same ID card that everyone else has.\nSanders: Alright Bill we want to wind this down, what didn\u2019t I ask you?\nMayor: Well one thing I want to mention is what we did just in the last few days. We are taking on the opioid manufactures because Bernie, look, I want to just commend you \u2013 I\u2019ve said to you, your town hall meeting in West Virginia was one of the most powerful things I\u2019ve seen in a long time about actually reaching working people and changing the dialogue. And that\u2019s where there is so much hope for progressives when we talk about working people\u2019s needs everything could be different. West Virginia has been ravaged by the opioid crisis as has the Bronx, as has Staten Island and other parts \u2013\nBernie: And as Vermont, and as Kentucky, as has communities throughout this country. 60,000 people died last year of overdoses.\nMayor: So it is an unacceptable status quo so we are suing the big opioid makers and distributors. And we\u2019re saying again, very much like the tobacco law suit from the past \u2013 they purposely created this crisis for profit, they need to pay so we can start to reclaim people\u2019s lives.\nSanders: Alright, excellent. That is an issue that you know here in Congress what we are talking about is providing money for states and cities and that\u2019s important but at the end of the day you have people who likely knew exactly the addictive capabilities of these opioids and allowed them to go out \u2013\nMayor: In fact encouraged.\nSanders: And that is outrageous. They have got to be held accountable so I\u2019m glad that you\u2019re working on that. Alright, I think what we heard from Mayor Bill de Blasio is that in the era of Trump we don\u2019t sit and moan and groan. We use the resources that we have to fight back to create the kind of vibrant democracy this country needs to address the significant problems that we have and we can do it. We can do it when we stand together. So Bill I want to thank you for being here, I want to thank you for the great work you are doing. My regards to the family, we will see you soon.\nMayor: Thank you so much Bernie. See you soon.",

        "raw_content": "Concur Expands in Europe with GlobalExpense Acquisition, Latest in Series of Pickups and Partnerships\nOnline business expense-management company Concur has been on a dealmaking tear this year, and isn\u2019t slowing down just yet. Today, the Redmond, WA-based company (NASDAQ: CNQR) announced it would purchase London\u2019s GlobalExpense for about $19.7 million. Performance incentives could add another $3.3 million to the price.\nFrom Concur\u2019s description, GlobalExpense sounds like a pretty similar company. Concur said the pickup boosts the size of its European operations by a third, although it wasn\u2019t clear from the company\u2019s release whether that meant customers, revenues, employees, or something else. Concur did say that it expects the GlobalExpense acquisition to increase revenues by about $5 million for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012.\nConcur has been expanding its footprint in recent months, particularly overseas. In January, the company acquired San Francisco-based TripIt, a consumer and business online travel-planning service, and announced a joint venture with SunBridge Corporation to establish Concur Japan. In mid-April, Concur said it was investing $40 million in a minority stake in Cleartrip, a privately held online travel-booking service in India, and said it would open an office in that country.\nIn a note today on the GlobalExpense acquisition, D.A. Davidson analysts John Kraft and Douglas Greiner said more deals could follow for Concur, noting the company reported nearly $570 million in cash in its last quarterly report. \u201cThis acquisition is not surprising; it clearly makes strategic sense and we expect more like it,\u201d Kraft and Greiner wrote.\nThe recent spate of acquisitions and investments are longer-term plays that won\u2019t drive immediate revenue or profits, the analysts wrote. They also noted that international operations account for more than 10 percent of Concur\u2019s revenues. Concur expects the deal to close in its fourth quarter.\nReport: Microsoft Buying Cybersecurity Firm Hexadite for $100M",

        "title": "Science-fiction and political theory | Le blog de Yannick Rumpala",
        "raw_content": "Anarchy in a world of machines\nIn the margins of my main research topics, I started to develop some reflections on the relationship between science fiction and political thought. As is often the case, working on a topic leads one to perceive the potential of another more or less related subject. This is typically what happened with a series of novels which are in my opinion very stimulating and may lead me to propose a more substantial text if I can find enough time for such a form of intellectual escape (P.S.: the result is a longer article published in Technology in Society).\nBy trying to combine a literary starting point and prospective thinking, the idea would be to test a hypothesis that could at first seem to be science-fiction, but that might not be science fiction only. This hypothesis comes from a part of the work of the Scottish writer Iain M. Banks, the one commonly gathered under the name of \u201cCulture cycle\u201d, and from the social organization it describes. This series of science fiction novels, often praised for having revolutionized the genre of \u201cspace opera\u201d, presents an intergalactic civilization (\u201cthe Culture\u201d), based on anarchist principles and where shortage problems have been put an end to and in which power seems almost dissolved. In this civilization enjoying an elaborate technological development, forms of artificial intelligence (called \u201cminds\u201d in the novels) assume the tasks of administrating collective affairs, freeing up the mass of people for more spiritual or recreational activities. The type of collective organization described by Iain M. Banks in his novels[1] mostly works thanks to the benevolent support of these forms of artificial intelligence.\nCan such a hypothesis, expressed in a literary register, help one think of the role that smart (or at least greatly advanced) machines could take in a social and political organization? How could the inclusion of such machines be made in collective life? In the civilizational model given by the Culture, certain ontological separations have disappeared, since these entities behave and are treated as individuals. Human beings and machines thus co-exist in a collective that seems to function on the basis of equality, with mutual respect. Ships and space stations have their own \u201cminds\u201d and make their own choices. Somehow, these conscious and sensitive machines outsmarting human intelligence \u201care\u201d those spacecrafts. They are the thinking infrastructure of the Culture, which they also control more than they live in.\nIf we follow Iain Banks\u2019 vision, the development and widespread presence of these forms of artificial intelligence have changed the political functioning, and even the design of politics. This is a very peculiar application of anarchist principles. The author has indeed created an organized world in which, thanks to forms of artificial intelligence and the solution given to energy and scarcity impediments, the project of replacing the government of men by the administration of things has been achieved. In this model, there would be no real political choices to be made[2]. Difficult decisions caused by problems of resource allocation would no longer happen, or at the worst they could be resolved by phenomenal powers of calculation. Excesses in the use of power would not have to be feared any more, since this use would be somehow allocated to these artificial intelligences, who would have constitutively moved beyond these issues (or in any case for who such temptations would make little sense).\nIn the work of Iain M. Banks, these elements do not merely have to do with a science-fiction scenery: they play an important and intimate role in the stories. Beyond a literary analysis, they can be used as a basis for questioning the possibilities of \u201csocial\u201d regulation without direct human intervention, or more precisely with the mediation of machines moving towards a form of artificial intelligence. Hence my desire and this proposal to test to what extent and on what basis such an assumption may hold. This reflection in my opinion should be organised on three levels. The first should go back over the anarchist thought to show that the vision of Iain M. Banks can certainly find some matches there, but this thought is somewhat overwhelmed by the challenges that the work of this author highlight. The second would go on by showing the political issues that this work enables to draw about the consequences of advances in artificial intelligence and their effects on the community organization patterns. The third, also from a political angle, would try to establish more concrete connections from lines of evolution discernible in the computerization and automation of technical equipment which can participate in the regulation of social processes.\nIf the galactic civilization described by Iain M. Banks has an anarchist basis[3], the shape of the project is indeed not easy to place in relation with the anarchist tradition, especially regarding the thinking related to technical progress. Some thinkers see in technology potentials that can pull in the direction of emancipation. One can find in Mikhail Bakunin\u2019s thinking the idea that technology can reduce the workload burden on individuals and thus participate in the destabilization of the capitalist order. Murray Bookchin, in his attempt to justify theoretically a \u201csocial ecology\u201d, contemplated the possibility of a \u201cliberatory technology\u201d[4]. But there has also remained a strong distrust of technology in anarchist circles (with technology being more or less associated with capitalist domination). This suggests that advances in artificial intelligence could have an at least ambivalent reception among anarchist circles, and probably not such an optimistic one as in the fictionalized version of Iain Banks.\nThe linking between the artistic vision of science-fiction and political-philosophical views may well be an interesting way to question the political implications of advances in artificial intelligence. What tasks can be assigned to machines that are more than simple machines? Can these tasks interfere with other tasks being a matter for collective human choices? What implications does this have in the management of collective affairs? Is an anarchist project more credible because it uses such advanced machines? Unlike older approaches to technology, such machines would also no longer be treated as tools, but would have greater access to the status of actors able to act independently. By reading the novels of the Culture cycle, one can also wonder if the reliance on forms of artificial intelligence and the abandonment of certain tasks and activities do not lead to a form of human passivity. In short, in this form of \u201ccomputer-aided\u201d anarchy, the idea of government does not make sense any more, but also at least because much power of decision is more or less consciously delegated and distributed to the vast network of artificial intelligences.\nThe socio-technical organization of the Culture described by Iain M. Banks is even more interesting that it can find matches in the developments of the late twentieth century. Computerization has penetrated many technical devices, in ways that may even lead to renegotiate more or less directly the place of human beings. Many social processes are more and more often automated. Computerized management of road traffic through traffic lights for example involves a redistribution of roles and functions between human beings and automation[5]. \u201cAutomated trading systems\u201d now operate on financial markets as well. Advances in the field of artificial intelligence are likely to reinforce the questions about the reconfiguration of decisional spaces (if indeed it is still possible to discern them). The stakes are not merely technical but rather political, and this could be one of the merits of the fiction of Iain M. Banks that it has succeeded, even if it remains in the order of the imaginary, in presenting these stakes in a sufficiently coherent way to encourage further reflection on the intertwining of social, philosophical and political aspects which are far from being minor.\n[1] An explanatory text entitled \u201cA Few Notes on the Culture\u201d had also been posted on the Internet in 1994 and is available via Iain M.

There was a recent post on The Global Sociology Blog which synthesizes a series of arguments I tried to develop about science-fiction and social theory (this summarizing post on this very informative blog is entitled \u201cSocial-Scientific Analysis of Science-Fiction\u201d). These arguments were presented on my blog as parts of a paper prepared for a conference in Cerisy-la-Salle (\u201cHow to dream science-fiction today?\u201d, July 2009).\nMy line of reasoning ventures beyond the narrative dimension and is built on three steps. First, I show that science-fiction has a wealth of thought experiments to draw on. Then, I consider the works in this genre as a way of problematizing (in the Foucauldian sense) science and technology and their consequences on social and political systems. Third, I show that, behind the apparent diversity, science-fiction deals with social change as underlying theme. For all these reasons, I conclude by saying that science-fiction should not only be regarded as a thinking tool, but that it could also help to build some sort of collective reflexivity and responsibility towards the future.\n\u00c9tiquettes : future, Michel Foucault, science-fiction, social theory, thought experiments",

        "title": "FIFA WORLD CUP Asian Qualifiers | Y Writes Whatever!",
        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: FIFA WORLD CUP Asian Qualifiers\nPhilippine Azkals vs. Kuwait. And their dream to make it to the FIFA WORLD CUP 2014\nToday, the 2nd leg of the match between our very own Philippine Azkals and Kuwait ended. With a 5-1 score, Kuwaitis advances to the 3rd round of the FIFA World Cup 2014 Asian Qualifiers. Yup, unfortunately we didn\u2019t make it to the next round.\nFirst Leg \u2013 The Away Game:\nDuring the 1 st leg which was held in Kuwait, Azkals lost to 3 goals made by the opponents. Although like what I said that time, in fairness Kuwait did a good performance especially in their offence. Though, the first two goals I think was merely due to luck but the 3rd goal was just beautiful. There was even a talk about contesting the 2nd goal they made as it wasn\u2019t clear how it got passed Neil \u2013 Philippines\u2019 goalie and the two other players guarding the goal, when the Kuwaiti player was right there on the ground. They were thinking it was a handball. As for the Azkals, their defense was good however it is still lacking in the midfield area, giving way for the opponent to penetrate deeper. When it comes to their offence, there were a lot of chances but wasn\u2019t able to convert it to goals. Most of the time it was Phil who was trying to score but it\u2019s either he is denied by the players or the goalie or he lacked in support from the other Azkals.\nThe Azkals also were moving quite slow in the pitch. Must be the weather. I heard it was very hot that time they played \u2013 around 40 something I think. They were already very tired during the 2nd half. What I just didn\u2019t quite understand was why the substitution was made only in the additional 4 minutes of the 2 nd half? What was their strategy? Angel Guirado was also injured a lot of times due to the physical attack of the Kuwaitis. He was obviously tired but no substitution was made. I understand that they were reserving some players for the 2nd leg but still I didn\u2019t quite get it.\nPhil Younghusband (c/oPhilStar)\nSecond Leg \u2013 The Home Game:\nIt started fast and moving. There were a lot of energies from both teams. There was a rush. I could feel it. The game was very intense I could hardly breathe! Hahaha\u2026 The Azkals stepped up in this match. They were in high spirits, very very aggressive in their offence. I think during the first 30 minutes, the ball\u2019s possession was mostly with them but Kuwaitis were making it hard for us to score. Then just when the first half was about to end, Stefan Schrock scored a goal for the Philippines causing a loud roar not only in Rizal Stadium but also at home! Hahaha\u2026 Yes, that\u2019s from me and my dad. And it was a beautiful goal by Stefan! During the 2nd half however, the Kuwaitis had their revenge when they scored twice, burying us in a deep hole with that 2 away goals. Ouch! But despite of that, the Azkals fought until the end and tried their best to defend and attack. Like in the first leg, Phil also created chances, a lot of them as well as Guirado and Gier.\nStefan Schrock after his goal\nI must say, the Kuwaitis are skilled and very very organized team. I am impressed with what they shown in the match \u2013 how they tackled and attacked, it was awesome. They were so energized, playing as if the game has just started. Where are they getting that energy from? I\u2019m impressed with their stamina.\nWell compared to Philippines, they are very experienced in Football. Their world ranking is in 102 I think while we are in what, 159 or something? They played in the WORLD CUP already, I think around 1980s and they\u2019ve been playing the beautiful game way way back. Although, tracing the history of AFC, Philippines was one of the founding members of it. And mind you, it was founded in Manila. Look at the irony of that! But that\u2019s another topic.\nOverall I think the Azkals did a good performance especially in the Home Game and I\u2019m just proud of them. They played it so beautiful, very intense, full of action that I can hardly breathe! Well, but the Kuwaitis just played with class despite them losing one player due to a 2nd yellow card. The skills are impressive, especially that guy in #7 shirt, he was attacking! They earned my respect in Football. Plus, I think they were one of the nicest team the Azkals have played so far. It is a physical game, so it\u2019s natural that you bump into each other resulting to unwanted injuries and cramps, (though sometimes others deliberately do that! How bad!) and of course, yellow and red cards. They were moments when their patience were tested and they just burst into anger but that\u2019s part of it. But the camera also captured moments of their players helping out our players who were hurt, that is both in first and second legs. They are professionals indeed.\nWell, congratulations to Kuwait for advancing to the 3rd round of the qualifiers. Hopefully you\u2019ll make it to the World Cup in Brazil!\nKuwait National Football Team\nFor the Azkals, it is alright. The game was well-fought. You did well. I\u2019m sure we\u2019ve learned a lot from this match and we\u2019ll use it to improve our performance. We can try again next time, who knows maybe in 2018 in Qatar (if I remember it right). \ud83d\ude42\nWell, despite that we lost, I can still proudly say, Go Azkals! We believe!\nTeam Azkals - The Philippine National Football Team\nTags: AFC, Angel Guirado, Chieffy Caligdong, FIFA, FIFA WORLD CUP Asian Qualifiers, football, Kuwait, Neil Etheridge, Phil Young Husband, Philippines, Rob Gier, Stefan Schrock, World Cup 2014",

        "raw_content": "Fundraising Event Held for Mayor Ollie Tyler\nCampaign season has arrived. Fundraising events are popping up in several races. The most notable is in the race for Mayor of Shreveport. A fundraising event for Mayor Ollie Tyler was held Tuesday night at the Petroleum Club. Most close associates tell KEEL News Tyler is definitely running for re-election, but so far there has been no announcement. A few months ago, I asked Mayor Tyler if she was running for re-election and she emphatically told me \"yes\".\nThe invite to the event said \"Ollie Tyler for Mayor\". It adds: \"the maximum contribution is $2500 per individual\".\nTyler was the guest of honor at this private \"who&apos;s who\" event at the Petroleum Club. Guests who attended the event tell me it was an \"informal campaign kickoff\" and that a formal announcement should come soon.\nYou can see the decorations with 2018 on the balloons. It looks pretty clear that this is the unofficial kickoff of Tyler&apos;s re-election bid.\nI caught up with the Mayor after the event and she told me \"this was not a kickoff.

        "title": "Abysmal Hymns: Look Back In Anger : The Cure's \"Faith\"",
        "raw_content": "Once again I take a look at a classic album and see how well it not only stands up over time, but resonates with me. Since today is the 37th Anniversary of the Cure's 1981 album \"Faith\" , Their 3rd album , \"Faith\" finds them hurling further into the dark place they began exploring on \"Seventeen Seconds\"/\"The Holy Hour\" is heavy in it's gloomy plod. I normally doing like their more up beat songs. \"Primary\" was still in touch with their punk side, and aggressively shoves it mood in your face. The taunt tension it moves with has gone onto to influence tons of post-punk bands. There is a colder stiffness to the bass groove of \"Other Voices\", yet it is a lighter mood than the first two songs.\nOnce we get to \"All Cats are Gray\" the sonic rain clouds begin to settle over the albums more narcotic drone. Synths begin to play a larger role as the atmosphere begins to thicken. Robert Smith's begin to show another side . His vocal is less of a staccato punk and more of a smoother vulnerable croon.\"Funeral Party\" finds his vocals coated in a more despondent longing as the synths form a more dream like wall behind him. With lyrics like \"two pales figures ache in silence\" I think you can't get more goth than that, though Smith insisted the band was never goth. They just like to dance at funeral parties. \"Doubt\" finds them picking it up into more of a punk pace and Robert Smith's vocals revert back to what he was doing on the first two albums. Lyrically it's more aggressive, it seems ridiculous for Robert Smith to sing about beating someone up, but that is what's happening.\n\"the Drowning Man\" might be the album's most powerful song with it's ethereal drone. The few people who I have spoken with who aren't into the Cure site the reason as being Robert Smith is too whiny for them. This is one of the few songs where his emoting might have a whine to it. I also doubt some one giving them a casual listen is going to hear since it's a deeper cut on an earlier album and not one that garnered much in the way of radio play. The title track closes the album. It follows a simple beat with the layers of single note guitar creating another drone. The lyrics might be the album's most depressing. There are some more abstract and some what religious metaphors in the them. I'll round this one up to a 10 not their best album, but we are talking about at band who has made some of best albums of all time, so the bar is pretty high. It is still an important piece of their evolution and a great getting high on a rainy day album.\nLabels: \"Faith\", 10, album review, goth, Look Back in Anger, post -punk, shoegaze, The Cure'",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Blogs \u00bb Charles Gaba's blog \u00bb VINDICATION: CBO confirms: ACA reduced uninsured population by 12 Million! (but beware the Lizard People!)\nVINDICATION: CBO confirms: ACA reduced uninsured population by 12 Million! (but beware the Lizard People!)\nCongressional Budget Office, 01/26/15: The Budget & Economic Outlook, 2015 - 2025\nFor the past few months, the estimates of the reduction in the uninsured people in the U.S. has ranged from as low as 8-9 million to as high as 10-11 million, depending on the survey source (Gallup, Urban Institute, the Census Bureau, etc), when it was done (a lot has changed over just the past few months), whether it includes children under 18 or not, whether it includes undocumented immigrants or not and so on.\nHowever, the official number which has been tossed around by both the White House as well as the mainstream media has pretty much settled on an even 10 million of late. It's been used in various press releases and as a talking point in Sunday morning talk shows, and President Obama even used the 10 million figure in the State of the Union.\nOf course, it's hard to hit a moving target; if a survey is published in November, the survey itself was likely done as early as October (or even spanning a full quarter of the year for a rolling average), meaning that you're missing up to 1/4 of the year. Meanwhile, since most of the surveys don't include children, perhaps an extra million has to be tacked onto the total. With that in mind, I've been maintaining for awhile now that the actual total is probably somewhat higher than that...more along the lines of 11-13 million.\nWell, 2014 is now completely off the books, the CBO has issued their updated report on the budget outlook for the next decade...and guess what?\nBy CBO and JCT\u2019s estimates, about 42 million nonelderly residents of the United States were uninsured in 2014, about 12 million fewer than would have been uninsured in the absence of the ACA.3\nWhat's interesting here is that the CBO's ending number (42 million) is actually 11 million higher than most of the other surveys (which started the year with the same 42 million). Again, if you include children and undocumented immigrants, the difference makes sense. However, the actual number of people who gained insurance remains 12 million net...about 2 million higher than the number which had been settled on until now.\nIn 2015, the agencies estimate, 36 million nonelderly people will be uninsured\u2014about 19 million fewer than would have been uninsured in the absence of the ACA. From 2016 through 2025, the annual number of uninsured is expected to decrease to between 29 million and 31 million\u2014that is, between 24 million and 27 million fewer than would have been uninsured in the law\u2019s absence (see Table B-2).\nBOOM. Mission (Being) Accomplished.\nAs for the remaining 31 million expected to be uninsured by 2025, the CBO expects the breakdown to be roughly:\n9.3 million: Undocumented immigrants\n3.1 million: Stuck in the Medicaid Gap (non-expansion states)\n6.0 million: Eligible for Medicaid but too proud or unaware to enroll\n12.6 million: Dead-enders* (ie, people who would rather pay the fee and go uninsured, risking personal bankruptcy, just to prove a completely invalid and utterly irrelevent point about \"gub'mint handouts\")\nThe 31 million people projected to be uninsured in 2025 represent roughly one out of every nine residents under age 65 (see Figure B-1). In that year, about 30 percent of those uninsured people are expected to be unauthorized immigrants and thus ineligible for exchange subsidies or for most Medicaid benefits; about 10 percent will be ineligible for Medicaid because they live in a state that will not have chosen to expand coverage; about 15 percent to 20 percent will be eligible for Medicaid but will choose not to enroll; and the remaining 40 percent to 45 percent will not purchase insurance to which they have access through an employer, through an exchange, or directly from an insurer.\nNow, there's really not a whole lot which can be done, politically speaking, about healthcare for the 9.3 million undocumented immigrants. That would be a bridge too far for even many Democrats, and of course Republicans would go absolutely apesh*t if Medicaid or tax credits were given to them.\nThere's a simple solution to the 3.1 million in the Medicaid Gap...the remaining states just have to stop being jerks, and it's looking more like many of them (Tennessee, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, etc) might cave sometime this year, albeit via an Arkansas-like \"private option\" or whatever.\nThe 6 million who will be eligible for Medicaid but aren't expected to enroll in it...that's a combination of education/outreach and taking steps to remove the social stigma which comes with being on Medicaid. Ironically, the fact that millions of other \"working poor\" people have enrolled s hould help with this to some degree.\nFinally, there's the dead-enders*: Those who can afford to enroll in at least a minimally-compliant healthcare policy but knowingly and deliberately refuse to do so. The CBO thinks that 12.6 million will still remain in this category 10 years from now, which may sound like a lot, but keep in mind that this is about the same number of Americans who believe that Lizard People run the country. It's around 4.4% of the non-elderly population, and 5% of the people in this country are always going to be insane, so I'm not too concerned about it. This just means that, barring Single Payer of some sort, the national uninsured rate will never fall below around 4% no matter what.\n*CAVEAT/UPDATE/APOLOGY: I should note that not everyone who falls into this category should be lumped in with the Conspiracy Theorists or Tea Party Extremist!! crowds; some people may genuinely fall into the higher-income equivalent of the \"Medicaid Gap\" crowd...the specifics of their employment/income situation may make it problematic for them to comply with the law even if they \"officially\" should be able to afford coverage. To those who find themselves in that situation, I apologize for the generalization.\nThere's also another important tidbit: Take a look at the CBO's revised ACA exchange QHP enrollment estimate for 2015:\nRemember last year, when they dropped their 2014 exchange QHP estimate from 7 million to 6 million? Well, in this report, they've similarly dropped their 2015 exchange QHP estimate from 13 million down to 12 million.\nInterestingly, the CBO's estimate for new Medicaid/CHIP enrollees was actually dropped by 1 million as well (from 12M to 11M), even though by my calculations, the net increase in Medicaid/CHIP enrollment is actually already above 13 million to date. However, that includes about a million who were already transferred into/enrolled in Medicaid/CHIP before 1/1/14 via ACA provisions, and there's a lot of rounding going on here, so I guess that's no big deal.",

        "raw_content": "Via rawstory.com\nWith the Halloween season coming to an end, many people have come up with creative ways to dress up for the festive holiday. However, this does not come without its fair share of ignorance. Racially offensive and stereotypical depictions are a common controversy across the country, particularly at universities. I had the unfortunate experience of coming face to face with such a problem.\nOn September 24, multiple black students at Xavier University, my school, in Cincinnati, Ohio, came across this Snapchat photo of a white Xavier student wearing black paint on her face, with the caption \u201cWho needs white when black lives matter\u201d. The public outcry on campus was almost immediate. Black students, including myself, displayed our disgust for the actions of the people behind the picture. Unfortunately, this is something that is not exclusive to just my school. Just this past fall, Northern Kentucky University experienced their own form of racial discrimination, when flyers saying \u201cWelcome White Week\u201d were spread across campus. The flyers were in response to the Welcome Black Week flyers that were created by the university\u2019s Black Student Union, in order to promote black student organizations to freshman students.\nThe examples are many, but one underlying issue seems to be prevalent; this keeps happening over and over and over again. This is far from the first time a white student has publicly put on blackface. Just in the past month, a student from Albright University was suspended for posting herself in blackface on Snapchat. A white Prairie View A&M University (an HBCU) student left the university for doing the same thing. The issue has now gone far past just posting pictures, it now appears that the problem is embedded in the very fabric of white American society. In the early 1800s, the practice of using blackface in entertainment and film was commonplace. The use of blackface was, at the time, just one of the ways to portray black people in a condescending manner, and birthed many of the known stereotypes for black people. There was the mammy stereotype, that was frequently used in Aunt Jemima advertisements, the pickaninny, which portrayed black children as complete imbeciles who had an insatiable appetite for watermelon, and the mulatto, a biracial who was portrayed as tragic when they find they have black blood in them (which I take particular offense to, as I myself am mixed).\nThe primary, and most well known, use of blackface, however, was its use in minstrel shows. Minstrel shows were a 19th-century form of traveling entertainment that was popular primarily in the United States. Their gimmick was that the white performers would cover their faces in black grease paint, leaving room around their mouths to simulate large lips. They would commonly portray themselves as ignorant, poorly educated (if educated at all) slaves. This alone should be enough to convince anyone, with at least a piece of a soul, that this isn\u2019t funny, but what made these performances even worse is that people started to actually believe that this is how black people acted. Blackface then evolved into animation, with cartoon legends, such as Looney Toons and Disney, participating in it.\nBlackface, in a modern context, seems like an almost primitive form of racism, but that mentality has allowed it to permeate within college culture. \u201cIt\u2019s not racist because it\u2019s outdated\u201d or \u201cIt\u2019s just a joke, I didn\u2019t mean to offend anyone\u201d are not excuses. Blackface has been, and always will be, a white supremacist tool used to degrade and humiliate black people. The stereotypes it has created have created so much public division amongst black and white people, that the only way to even begin to bridge that gap, is to eliminate the use of blackface altogether and to better educate non-minorities on the history of it. So before you try to make a joke, please be aware. Black Twitter is watching, and we don\u2019t play nice.\nTags #blacklivesmatter #race #labels college featured\nPrevious Post 3 Reasons \u201cFriends\u201d Was Actually Very Problematic\nNext Post 5 Asian Horror Films You Probably Didn\u2019t Know",

        "raw_content": "The B-52 Gunners\nFew know it now, but enlisted gunners protected B-52 bombers through the 1991 Gulf War.\nFrom his gunner position in the back of the bomber, SSgt. Samuel O. Turner detected the enemy fighter just before it began its firing pass.\nThe attacker came in from below and behind, climbing quickly, while a second bogey lingered in the distance to observe the coming combat. The wrangle did not last long. As the fighter came within range Turner fired a six-second burst from his tail guns\u2014about 700 rounds.\n\"B-52s Over Hanoi,\" by Robert Bausch, from the Air Force Art Collection.\n\"There was a gigantic explosion to the rear of the aircraft,\" said Turner. \"I looked out the window but was unable to see directly where the [fighter] would have been.\" Turner turned his attention back to the fighter\u2019s wingman.\nAfter about 15 seconds, the second fighter turned and fled. \"As we left the threat area, my aircraft commander told the other [US] aircraft, \u2018I think we got one,\u2019 and they knew what he meant,\" he recalled.\nThis encounter was notable, aside from the gunner\u2019s skill in the face of danger. It did not involve a B-17 or a B-24 facing off against a Luftwaffe attack, or a B-29 defending itself in the Korean War\u2014Turner was a tail gunner on an aircraft still flying but not usually associated with machine gun defense: the B-52.\nToday the B-52 is one of the most versatile and long-lived airframes in history. It has morphed over time from a long-range strategic nuclear bomber, to a conventional bomb delivery wagon, to a precision guided munitions carrier. The B-52 remains in the US Air Force arsenal because it is durable, economical, and effective.\nThe fact that B-52s once featured guns as a defensive armament is evidence of how long they have been in service.\nThe bombers never bristled with turrets, as World War II bombers did. But B-52s featured defensive armament in the tail: A through G models had quad .50-caliber machine guns, and H models employed a single M61 20 mm rotary cannon. The gunners who manned these weapons were enlisted personnel. They were the only enlisted airmen in a B-52 crew.\nTurner was the gunner on a B-52D from U Tapao airfield, Thailand, on a Dec. 18, 1972, mission to bomb targets near Hanoi during Linebacker II, the Vietnam War\u2019s last major air campaign. The fighter he shot down was a North Vietnamese MiG-21, and it was the first time a B-52 gunner destroyed an adversary.\nFor this achievement Turner was awarded the Silver Star. \"By his courage in the face of hazardous combat conditions and outstanding professional skill, he successfully defended his aircraft and its crew and enabled it to complete its mission and return safely to base,\" reads the citation accompanying the decoration.\nBetween You and Eternity\nSSgt. Samuel Turner, a B-52 gunner, receives the Silver Star from Gen. John Meyer, head of Strategic Air Command. (USAF photo)\nThe gun defenses of aircraft began with pistols, rifles, or machine guns fired by the pilots and observers pre-World War I. Machine guns mounted in \"turrets\"\u2014little more than circular hardwood tracks\u2014were the next step.\nGuns in these early designs rotated on hardwood casters, noted a secret history of turret development compiled by the US Air Historical Office in 1947. \"They were cumbersome and unmanageable; the wood warped and bound with every flexing of the aircraft fuselage; and manipulation, even at the laggard air speeds of that day, was complicated by the fact that the gunner never had enough hands to perform the many operations involved in training his guns,\" it reads. The history was written by Capt. Irving B. Holley Jr. and was declassified in 1959.\nBut World War I gunners were deadly despite the primitive technology. The first American to shoot down five enemy aircraft was Frederick Libby, an ex-cowboy from Colorado who joined the British Royal Flying Corps in 1916 and served as an observer-gunner in FE-2B two-seat pusher aircraft.\nFE gunners used two machine guns, including a rear-facing Lewis gun, mounted on a steel pole, which required them to stand up on their seats when firing. \"Only your grip on the gun and the sides of the nacelle stood between you and eternity,\" said Libby years later. This did not stop Libby from destroying five adversaries in his first six weeks in the air\u2014as a private (he was later promoted to lieutenant). \"Only the fact that he performed this feat as an observer instead of a pilot prevents his occupying the historic spot of first American ace,\" according to authors Raymond Toliver and Trevor Constable in their book Fighter Aces.\nAs bombers increased in size and speed, guns were enclosed within the fuselage, and the number of weapons increased. Early models of World War II\u2019s B-17 Flying Fortress featured five guns. Eventually they sprouted turrets in the nose, tail, belly, and upper fuselage, along with waist machine gun emplacements. This allowed the B-17 to cover almost all possible angles of attack.\nA formation could produce a ferocious wall of defensive fire. At the height of the war, gunners were essential to strategic bomber defense in all theaters. Tens of thousands of US gunners flew missions over Europe alone, as the Army Air Forces attacked Germany\u2019s industrial base.\nOne of them was SSgt. Forrest L. Vosler, a radio operator-gunner who had taken a six-week gunnery course at the completion of his radio training, and who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his exploits in the skies over Germany on Dec. 20, 1943. Severely wounded by a German 20 mm shell, Vosler nevertheless kept up a steady stream of fire from his gun position. Though partially blinded he fixed his damaged radio by touch alone and managed to send distress signals before his B-17 ditched in the North Sea. Vosler survived.\nA B-52F rolls out (back). In the foreground is a tail detail, showing, from left to right, the ammunition access door, the drag chute compartment, and the gunner\u2019s entry hatch. (USAF photo)\nIn the Pacific, SSgt. John D. Foley was a legendary B-26 top turret gunner. In 63 combat missions he destroyed seven enemy aircraft, a number of them Japanese A6M Zeros. Back home he became so famous a popular lyricist wrote a song about \"Johnny Zero\" in 1943, and \"Johnny Zero\" boots, watches, and coats were popular department store items.\nAs jet fighters took to the skies, aerial gunnery remained an effective means of defending long-range bombers. In the Korean War, B-29 gunners scored 27 victories. This was a \"remarkable feat\" given the lumbering B-29s were often up against speedy MiG-15s, wrote author Albert E. Conder, himself a former gunner, in The Men Behind the Guns: The History of Enlisted Aerial Gunnery, 1917-1991.\nIn this context, it is easy to see why Boeing engineers included active gun defense in their plans for a new long-range jet bomber intended to maintain the Cold War balance of power\u2014the B-52.\nThe first USAF B-52s entered service in November 1955. Initial Air Force requirements for the long-range strategic bomber called for a crew of five, plus turret gunners. But the B-52B\u2014the first deployed variant of the bomber\u2014carried only one gunner, who manned four .50-caliber M3 machine guns. The barrels of these weapons protruded menacingly from the bomber\u2019s rear, like a giant multipronged stinger.\nThe gunner sat in the aircraft tail underneath a transparent canopy, allowing a wide field of vision. The view directly in front was blocked by the control panel and the guns themselves, but an optical periscope overcame the blind spot.\nB-52 gunners reached this isolated position by climbing over the fully reclined back of their seat. When they snapped the seat upright, they were physically isolated in a space more than one airman compared to the size of a coffin. With some variation as to weaponry and fire-control systems, this layout remained the same through the B-52D, the version used extensively in Southeast Asia beginning in the 1960s.\nLast Kill\nMaintainers service the four .50-caliber M3 machine guns in the tail of a BUFF. (USAF photo)\nThough B-52 gunners served throughout the Southeast Asian conflict and into the Gulf War period, their most intensive combat experience came during Linebacker II, the massive bombing of North Vietnamese targets ordered by President Richard Nixon when the Paris peace talks faltered in late 1972.\nThe operation began on Dec. 18, 1972, and ended on Dec. 29. USAF B-52s flew 729 sorties and dropped 15,000 tons of bombs on 34 targets. Fifteen bombers were shot down, all by North Vietnamese surface-to-air missiles. During this period B-52 gunners claimed five MiG kills. Only two were confirmed. The first was Turner\u2019s aerial victory.\nThe second involved A1C Albert E. Moore, gunner on the B-52D Diamond Lil.\nLate on Christmas Eve 1972, Moore\u2019s bomber took off from its Thai base headed for the North Vietnamese rail yards at Thai Nguyen. Before it arrived on target Moore spotted something in his radar scope, low, and about eight miles distant.\n\"I immediately notified the crew, and the bogey started closing rapidly,\" Moore wrote six days later. \"It stabilized at 4,000 yards, 6:30 o\u2019clock low. ... I called the pilot for evasive action and the EWO [electronic warfare officer] for chaff and flares. When the target got to 2,000 yards, I notified the crew that I was firing. I fired at the bandit until it ballooned to three times in intensity then suddenly disappeared from my radar scope at approximately 1,200 yards, 6:30 low.\"\nA crewman from another B-52 saw the MiG explode in a fireball, confirming Moore\u2019s account.\nAs he returned to base following the mission, Moore wrote later, he did not know whether to be happy or sad. He knew there had been a pilot in that fighter who wanted to return to base just as badly as he did. \"But it was a case of him or my crew. I\u2019m glad it turned out the way it did,\" Moore wrote.\nThis incident marked the last confirmed kill of an enemy fighter by a bomber gunner.\nDiamond Lil remains intact. The bomber flew more than 200 missions during the Vietnam War, with the Air Force retiring her on Oct. 6, 1983. Today she sits on pedestals just inside the main gate of the US Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo.\nThe tail\u2019s rear seat was a great office in which to work, remembers Daniel Danish, who served as a B-52 gunner from his enlistment in the Air Force in 1974 to 1991. There was not much elbow room\u2014you had to stick your arms out like a chicken\u2014but you could not beat the view. \"You had this window all around you,\" said Danish, who retired in 2004 as a chief master sergeant, and today serves as an officer of the Air Force Gunners Association.\nA B-52 releases a bomb load on a target southeast of Saigon in 1966. Until the G model, the gunner was confined to a tiny space in the tail of the massive aircraft but had a great view of his surroudings.(USAF photo)\nThe ride could be a little rough. Given the length of a B-52 fuselage, the tail moved up and down quite a bit. The ratio was about one-to-six; for every foot the cockpit moved, the tail bounced six. The ride was especially rough during low-level flight. \"Lots of times you wore your helmet throughout the flight,\" recalled Danish. \"You could get knocked around pretty good.\"\nDirectly in front of the gunner seat was a radar scope. In World War II bombers, gunners for the most part aimed their weapons themselves, taking into account the curve of a fighter\u2019s approach and their own aircraft\u2019s direction. In the B-52, search and track radars and computerized fire-control systems took over this aiming process.\nThough it had many different modes of operation, and could be set on manual, the fire-control system essentially automated much of a gunner\u2019s job. \"Once you locked on to a target it just followed it in and did everything but pull the trigger for you,\" said Danish. The guns fired in short bursts. The kick was such that the entire crew could feel what was happening. \"It just shook the whole airframe,\" Danish said.\nActive defense of the aircraft was not the B-52 gunner\u2019s only responsibility. With a range of up to 12 miles, the search radar could serve as a valuable adjunct to the aircraft\u2019s main navigational systems. If the bomber was flying in cell formation, the gunner could serve as the pilot\u2019s eyes to the rear, directing following aircraft to stay in position.\nIn poor weather conditions the radar provided range and bearing information to the rest of the cell. If an aircraft in the rear lost its own radar, the gunner of a lead airplane could direct it to its target. Gunners also worked closely with electronic warfare officers. Together they constituted a B-52\u2019s defensive team\u2014one with active weapons, one with more passive electronics.\nAlthough the rest of the B-52 crew were officers, gunners report that they were not treated as second-class citizens. Said Danish, \"We all had an important role to play.\"\nBeginning with the B-52G, gunners were moved from the aircraft tail to the main cabin. The pilot and copilot sat in the front seats, while the gunner and EWO sat behind them, next to each other.\nThis change was intended to allow the crew to work more closely together. It also saved weight and gave the gunner an ejection seat. But many gunners rued the loss of their wide-screen view.\nAirmen load a B-52 with bombs. The machine guns jutting from the tail jolted the entire airframe when fired. (USAF photo)\nAlso, firing guns by remote control from the middle of the aircraft seemed less active than shooting them from the rear. Without the view out the rear of the bomber, gunner trainees sometimes found it hard to get used to flying backward. When they felt the airplane was going to their right, for example, it was actually turning left, and vice versa.\nJohn E. Stallings, who served as a B-52 gunner from 1989 through 1991, had this problem. He kept getting sick on training flights, to the point where his superiors almost decided the job wasn\u2019t for him. But Stallings kept at it and eventually flew 130 combat hours in the Gulf War. The missions he flew on did not draw much anti-aircraft fire, he remembers today, and the Iraqi Air Force did not come up to engage his aircraft.\n\"I do remember how the airplane shook as 45 bombs were released,\" said Stallings, today a master sergeant in the Illinois Air National Guard and a firefighter. On one Gulf War mission, an EF-111 flying support got separated from the group, and no one could raise it on radio. When they got back to Diego Garcia, the B-52 crew members saw on CNN that the Raven had crashed with no survivors. To this day, Stallings remembers the EF-111\u2019s call sign, Ratchet 75. \"I could not tell you what my call sign was on that flight, but I remember theirs,\" said Stallings.\nIn the B-52H, the .50-caliber machine guns were replaced with an AN/ASG-21 defensive fire-control system using a 20 mm six-barrel cannon\u2014a modern, high-rate-of-fire weapon. But as long-range air-to-air missiles became more lethal, the very notion of having a gunner came under review.\nFrom the 1950s beginnings to the last class in September 1991, about 5,000 airmen earned their gunners wings. Then, in late 1991, Strategic Air Command announced it was eliminating the B-52 gunner\u2014saving money and cutting 525 positions.\nStallings was the last gunner to fly out of Loring AFB, Maine. Upon landing the pilot informed him his fellow gunners had set up a portable water tank and were waiting to throw him in. \"This was late September, and it was starting to get cold at night so the water was not very warm,\" said Stallings.\nOn Oct. 1, 1991, the B-52s flew without a gunner\u2014and a long and proud tradition came to an end.\nPeter Grier, a Washington, D.C., editor for the Christian Science Monitor, is a longtime defense correspondent and a contributing editor to Air Force Magazine. His most recent article, \"When the Nuke Plan Changed,\" appeared in September.",

        "raw_content": "Plans to build a dementia care home on Green Belt in Hale have been resurrected \u2013 and local residents are still not happy\nPlans to build a state of the art dementia care home in Hale have been resurrected, months after an initial proposal was thrown out by Trafford Council.\nOctopus Healthcare has submitted remodelled plans to demolish a detached residential home on Bankhall Lane and replace it with a 64-bed facility, slightly smaller than the original 72-bed home planned.\nThe project would involve the construction of four \u201cvilla-style\u201d buildings containing 64 nursing and dementia friendly en-suite bedrooms with associated day rooms, ancillary accommodation, communal facilities including hair salon, cafe and library, and support facilities including a kitchen and laundry room. A total of 64 jobs would also be created.\nThe care home would be located on the corner of Bankhall Lane, as shown here\nAn application prepared by architects C Squared on behalf of Care Home UK said the facility would \u201cprovide an efficient use of the land and a much needed facility for the area\u201d, and that the new proposal had been designed to \u201crespect the surrounding Green Belt, public footpath, adjacent conservation area and site contours with varying ridge lines and a residential scale\u201d.\nBut like last time, the proposed scheme has attracted considerable opposition from local residents, as well as the local councillor.\nCouncillor Patricia Young, who represents Hale Central, said the care home would \u201cinevitably cause a very large increase in the number of cars looking to park in this section of the Hale Central ward\u201d.\nA visual showing the redesigned care home as seen from a new entrance on Bankhall Lane\nShe added: \u201cIt strikes me that there is little change to the previous application for a care home\u2026 I also firmly believe that it will be dangerous to have such a large establishment being accessed actually from a bend in quite a narrow road.\u201d\nAnother objector, Liam Clancy, said the planned development was an \u201chorrific intrusion [on the Green Belt] which will affect local wildlife lovers and children\u201d.\nAnd David Cranmer said it was \u201ca complete over-development of the site\u201d which will be \u201ccompletely out of character with the rest of the neighbourhood\u201d.\nA visual showing the view from the south-west corner of the Bankhall Lane site\nTo date, over 40 objections had been submitted against the proposal.\nThe residential home, Great Heyes, had been acquired by Octopus after a fierce bidding war in 2017 and Care Home UK were tasked with managing the facility on a leasehold basis.\nThe original application was rejected by Trafford last April on three grounds, with the council saying it would \u201cfail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the adjacent South Hale Conservation Area\u201d, would be \u201cinappropriate to the site\u2019s semi-rural context\u201d, and would also disturb the protected species located on the site.\nOctopus Healthcare is part of the Octopus Group, which was originally set up in 2000 as a fund management business but has now grown into a conglomerate with divisions encompassing renewable energy generation, financial technology, property and venture capital.\nComments about the scheme can be submitted via the Trafford Council planning portal here (number 96465). The closing date is February 13th.",

Not only to practice the acquired English language skills, but to live and learn from other cultures as ambassadors of peace.\nAUTHORIZED CAMBRIDGE CENTRE\nAmaranto provides the application of tests to prove and evaluate communication skills in English. All tests are linked to the Common European Framework of Reference for laguages. \u2013 CEFR the internationally accepted standard for classifying language ability.\nAmaranto favors the integration of values and spirituality as fundamental capabilities for students to get to know themselves; raise their self-esteem and get along with others in a democratic, plural and responsible manner. Respecting the rights of others and the environment, at all times, under the principles of diversity and multiculturalism is key at all times at Amaranto.\nOur goal is to nurture our children with a love for universal art forms and develop their individual capacities to appreciate and distinguish different types of art.\nDeveloping awareness in children through artistic activities where they discover, explore, and experiment various artistic expressions is a wonderful way to activate their senses and their brain and allowing them to be creative.\nAmaranto students learn to use digital technology as early as pre-school to help develop a more creative way of thinking.\nAll our students are involved in the computer lab with specialized programs appropriate to their age.\nInformation and Communication Technology (ICT) can contribute to universal access to education, equity in education, the delivery of quality learning and teaching, and more efficient education management, governance and administration.\nOrganizations like UNESCO takes a holistic and comprehensive approach to promoting ICT in education.\nOur Fifth and Sixth-graders have the necessary digital technology for project-based learning. This allows our students to interact from their personal computers, work together online and build their knowledge through the discovery and use of multiple information resources available in their interactive classroom with controlled internet access.\nAs part of our children\u00b4s digital literacy, they learn to program their own interactive stories, games and animations. This idea teaches them skills to design projects, solve problems and communicate ideas, through systematic reasoning, creativity and team work.\nWe have a specially equipped Science Lab for our Children to explore, create and implement the acquired knowledge while developing scientific work skills.\nStarting in third grade, our geography program \u201cThis Is Our World\u201d is taught in English, in order to develop knowledge, the understanding of the causes, location and relationship between natural phenomena that occur on planet earth, to utilize the resources of their environment in a logical and rational way amongst other objectives.\nOur Spanish program promotes and encourages the development of four main skills to acquire a language through a holistic approach to communication: oral and written expression, reading and listening comprehension.\nAmaranto provides the tools to solve the problems and challenges of building knowledge, our team of professionals promotes the development of critical thinking stimulating curiosity and creativity in our children.\nOur math program aims to use different materials to achieve the construction of mathematical and formal thinking. Students can design their own methods and strategies for solving problems of mathematical logic structure through self-learning and creativity so they gain valuable confidence in this important area.\nAmaranto students develop mathematical thinking through playing with numbers in different situations involving the principles of counting and building referral systems in relation to the location: shape, size and space. We believe in creative ways to solve problems that involve measuring magnitudes of length, capacity, weight and time units.\nLanguage and Speech Communication unfolds through fun activities and is regulated in different types of interactions with others.\nWritten language is built through previous exercises graphically expressing the ideas they want to communicate and verbalize to later be able to build text in written exercises.\nAmaranto believes knowledge of the natural world occurs through observing relevant features and elements of the phenomena that occur in nature; in which similarities and differences are distinguished, and are described in their own words.\nOur children look for answers to problems and questions about the natural world. They are able to formulate assumptions about phenomena and processes; understanding what an experiment is, and the anticipation of what can happen when one applies to test an idea.\nThey also identify and use what they observe and experience to obtain, record and report information; and participate in actions of care for nature and the value of showing understanding of the need to preserve it.\nIn the area of \u200b\u200bCulture and Social Life, our children establish relationships between their families and communities (present and past) through objects, everyday situations and cultural practices. They learn to distinguish some expressions of their own culture, and others, while respecting diversity at all times.\nThe practice of safety to preserve basic health measures that prevent accidents and risks in school and beyond is impotant in this area.\nAlso, recognizing situations in their family and or in another context that cause different emotions and learning to detect them is a beautiful process we see our children developing in this area.\nThe physical education program is an integral part of the healthy development of our children in all grades. Improving different skills through systematic and organized sports and activities that encourage discipline and healthy competition.\nCORPORAL EXPRESSION\nBody language is one of the basic forms of human communication intended to encourage learning processes; structure of the body, to build an appropriate image of themselves, as well as to improve communication and develop creativity are some of the challenges of this program.\n\u201cThe earth will be as men are\u201d. Amaranto promotes permanent respect and care for nature and the environment. The Ecological Culture we propitiate leads our children to an understanding that each of our actions must aim to care for our planet.\nEDUCATIONAL FIELDTRIPS\nAmaranto organizes field trips that give students the opportunity to learn outside the classroom, using research methods in different areas such as social and natural sciences to optimize the learning process in a more fun and spontaneous manner.\nREADING AWARENESS\nAmaranto aims to sow in our children a love of reading and making this practice a part of their life. The habit of reading is acquired primarily by shared emotions with another who is appreciative and for whom reading is an essential act.\n\u201cThe love of reading is not taught, it\u00b4s contagious.\u201d\nThis program aims to create awareness in our children about the commitment to those most in need through active participation in planned activities; giving them the opportunity to interact with each other during shared activities, and in some cases, connect with people different people in our community.\nAmaranto offers workshops where parents can interact and exchange experiences with different specialists that share their expertise to learn and discovery resources and skills on how to exercise their role as parents leading all to a more effective, affective and flexible relationship amongst the family to support their children\u2019s optimal development.\nLIVE AMARANTO!\nDuring the School Year, Amaranto encourages parents to visit all areas and activities. Also, events like Talent Shows, Book Fairs and others bring all Amaranto community together!\nParents and Children sharing Amaranto daily activities and events at all levels is a priceless experience for all!\nPlease call us so we can welcome you at any time!\nWe have an extended after school program that offers diverse activities such as: Homework workshop, Art, Yoga for children, Yoga for parents, Tae Kwon Do, Basketball, Voleyball, Flag Football, Soccer and Gymboree amongst others.",

        "raw_content": "RedState exclusive:\nLet\u2019s start with a simple question: If conservatives had a choice, would we choose to balance the budget now or follow Obama\u2019s model of catastrophic debt instead? For conservatives, the answer is painfully obvious. And the quickest way to a balanced budget is to let the US government hit the debt ceiling.\nWhen we reach the debt limit we can only spend what we take in; quite a novel, radical idea in Washington. Of course, how the revenue gets spent gets complicated, but one thing is certain. Upon hitting the ceiling, the executive branch chooses how revenue is allocated. The US government would only default if the President ordered the Treasury Secretary to not pay our debts. It\u2019s practically impossible. It\u2019s less likely than seeing a fish ride a bicycle.\nCBO estimates the US government will take in $2.6 trillion this year. It costs approximately $220 billion to service the debt and prevent us from defaulting-just 8.5 percent of revenue. In other words, if we hit the debt ceiling, we still have plenty of money to pay the essential bills.\nIn fact, according to the CBO, we have enough to pay all \u201cmandatory spending\u201d\u009d (Medicare, Social Security, veterans benefits, debt payments, etc.) and defense spending, plus have more than $300 billion to use for \u201cdiscretionary\u201d\u009d spending. That\u2019s right. Not only could we run all absolutely essential functions of government, we would still have $300 billion to spare.\nObama\u2019s math doesn\u2019t add up, yet the President and his buddies in the media have convinced people that the government will \u201cdefault\u201d\u009d if we hit the debt ceiling. They say our economy will tank. Explain this: How is a balanced budget bad for the economy? I mean, God forbid we only spend what we take in\u2026\nTo President Obama and the media, nothing is more frightening than a balanced budget. Just listen to their rhetoric on the debt ceiling. It sounds like they\u2019re talking about the Mayan Apocalypse. It would be \u201ccatastrophic,\u201d\u009d \u201ccataclysmic,\u201d\u009d or worse. It\u2019s almost comical, really.\nAs conservatives, I think we can win the PR battle by fighting for this balanced budget. If President Obama is unwilling to negotiate and write a budget with real entitlement reform, I say we don\u2019t negotiate with him either. Let\u2019s hit the debt ceiling and force President Obama to immediately balance the budget. My intuition is, from there, President Obama might be willing to negotiate. I say we settle for nothing less than a budget which balances in 10 years. If Obama doesn\u2019t want to talk, at least our kids will be saved from billions and trillions of debt.\nNow, of course, the Left will counter that the debt ceiling just stops us from being able to pay our bills. They\u2019re wrong-it\u2019s much more than that. The debt ceiling, duly passed by Congress, is there to stop Washington from robbing future generations. It should be used as such.\nBy Ned Ryun, President and CEO of American Majority Action",

        "title": "How Filing For Bankruptcy Might Affect Your Small Business - Talking About Bankruptcy Proceedings",
        "raw_content": "Filing for personal bankruptcy can help you get out of debt; however, if you own a small business and operate the company as a sole proprietorship, you may want to consider how your business may be affected by this bankruptcy if you decide to file. In this situation, you may end up losing some or all of your business assets, which is why you should thoroughly discuss your situation with a bankruptcy attorney before you file. Here are several things you should know about this.\nHow Bankruptcy Courts View Sole Proprietorships\nWhen a bankruptcy trustee receives bankruptcy filing documents from a person who owns a business, he or she may want to fully examine the business, its assets, and its ability to make income. This is especially true if the business is a sole proprietorship. A sole proprietorship is not a legal entity of its own. The owner of the business fully owns the entire company and files only one tax return for him or herself and the business.\nBecause of the way sole proprietorships work, the trustee has the right to view all business assets as your own personal assets. In fact, when you file your paperwork for the bankruptcy, you will legally be required to list all the business assets you have. You could also list all the business debt you have, if you are hoping to find relief from this debt too.\nYou Could Be Forced To Close Your Business\nThere are times when bankruptcy trustees will force a small-business owner to close after filing for bankruptcy; however, this is not always the case. There are also times when a business owner can continue operating the business even if he or she filed for bankruptcy. There are two main factors that may affect this decision; however, all cases are handled on an individual basis. Here are the two factors that may affect your case:\nThe value of your company's assets \u2013 If you own a business that has thousands or millions of dollars of assets, the trustee may decide to seize them all from you and force you to close. On the other hand, if you operate a small service business that has very few assets, you might be able to keep these assets and continue your business operations.\nThe type of bankruptcy you use \u2013 The other factor that may affect your case is the type of bankruptcy you choose. With Chapter 7, you may be forced to liquidate all the assets you own, including your business assets. On the other hand, if you choose Chapter 13, you will be placed on a repayment plan and will probably not have to surrender any of your assets.\nThese two factors may affect the outcome of your case, but your attorney is also likely to discuss the difference between exempt and non-exempt assets.\nLearn The Difference Between Exempt And Non-Exempt Assets\nWhenever anyone files for bankruptcy, the person will never be forced to surrender every single thing he or she owns. Instead, the court will allow the person to keep assets called exempt assets. Assets considered exempt are those the court will let a person keep, and they often include things like clothing and furniture. They can also include other assets, though.\nIf you explain to the trustee that you must keep certain assets in order to earn money, the trustee might exempt them. If this happens, you will not be forced to turn them over during your bankruptcy case.\nIf you would like to find out more information about filing bankruptcy if you own a small business, contact a bankruptcy attorney in your area today.",

        "raw_content": "Patients with type 1 diabetes can possibly replace daily injections with an oral insulin pill that will deliver the drug straight to the gut.\nThe capsule contains a tiny needle that is made nearly completely of freeze-dried insulin, and a spring - all held in place by a disc of sugar.\nNext, the researchers measured how much insulin passed into the animals' blood and glucose levels before and after the experiment. Traverso and other co-authors are co-inventors on patent applications describing oral biologic drug delivery.\nOther authors of the study had, several years ago, developed a pill coated with many tiny needles that could be used to inject drugs into the stomach's lining or the small intestine.\nSince the capsule has only one needle, it has to be able to orient itself to deliver the injection. The new capsule's tip is made of absolutely compressed and freeze-drilled insulin and its shaft is biodegradable too.\nStomach acid gradually dissolves the sugar until the spring pops, shooting the insulin into the stomach wall. If that sounds a bit painful, worry not - your stomach wall has no pain receptors. To make sure that the drug is injected into the abdomen wall, the researchers designed their system so that irrespective of how the capsule lands within the abdomen, it may well orient itself, so the needle is involved with the liner of the stomach. And for long time researchers have pursued a way to orally control insulin. Patients with T1D produce very little or no insulin meaning they require insulin to be administered every day to allow them to regulate the levels of glucose in their bloodstream. \"Our motivation is to make it easier for patients to take medication, particularly medications that require an injection\", \" Traverso said.\nSyriza has 145 seats in parliament but has support from a number of independents, allowing it to muster a majority in voting. The Republic of North Macedonia inches closer to joining NATO, but how does a country get invited?\nSteph Curry wasn't bad either: He had 19 points, seven assists, five rebounds, two steals and a blocked shot. The Spurs earned a victory in the last meeting between these two teams on November 18.\n\"The way this works is it travels down the esophagus in seconds, it's in the stomach within a few minutes, and then you get the drug\", said Traverso, who worked with a team from the lab of MIT inventor Robert Langer and insulin maker Novo Nordisk.\nThe researchers drew their inspiration for the self-orientation feature from a tortoise known as the leopard tortoise. The pill is a variant of its shape made using computer modelling since it allows the capsule to reorient itself in the stomach.\nAbramson stated, \"What's important is that we have the needle in contact with the tissue when it is injected\".\nIt's now a distinct possibility, say researchers who have developed a capsule that can deliver insulin once it reaches the stomach. The MIT team is now collaborating with Novo Nordisk for further study and product development to make it available in pharmacies at the soonest time.",

A well-maintained office interior will always boost up the quality of the business. However, cleaning an office is something that can be complicated because each and every inch of the building has to be in its best state. If you are interested in creating a high quality and a clean environment in the commercial building that will bring about all these benefits to your business, the best move to make is to gain office cleaning Maroochydore services. Here are the top reasons why commercial cleaning services are beneficial to your business:\nTo Create a Better Impression on the Business\nThe first impression that is gained by the business is something that is of major significance. Makes sure that you focus on creating a better exterior image and an interior image of the building. When it comes to this, the way in which the windows of the building are cleaned matters. If you are handling a skyscraper or a normal building, cleaning the windows can be tough. However, the windows will affect the image of the business and the quality of the overall environment. To assure that everything is in the best condition about the windows and to let in the fines of the natural light, what you can do is to gain window cleaning Maroochydore services.\nTo Create a Healthy Workplace\nThe productivity of the employees depends on the quality of the workplace.

I get seasick and the idea of floating in the sea used to fill me with fear. But I\u2019ve always wanted to come to terms with this and had a wonderful opportunity when I went snorkelling last year. The first time I did it, I got seasick (!). I think I did it on a day when the water wasn\u2019t that calm. I tried again the next day and it was remarkable. What I remember most vividly wasn\u2019t just what I saw (which was exquisite), but the feeling of being caressed by the sea as I moved along gently. After returning my snorkel and flippers, I went in again and waded, swam and floated for a bit. My relationship with the sea changed that day.\nLike Paul Booth with his thoughtful comment, I\u2019d never made the connection between this experience and prayer, so this entry is really helpful for me, too. I also love the meditation from Ignatius. I\u2019m all Jawbone and Wishbone as well, but it\u2019s nice to be assured that I\u2019ve got some Backbone in me, however briefly it might happen for \ud83d\ude42\nPaul Booth July 14, 2017 at 6:06 pm\nindeed Shanon!",

        "raw_content": "Changes in the Agricultural Labor Force of Thailand and the Impact of the Alien Workers on its Economy\n2 Center for Applied Economic Research,\nAgriculture was once an engine in the economic growth of Thailand. However, the employment in agricultural sector has been declining and the dependence of economy on agriculture has declined since a few decades ago. Thailand has transformed to be an industrialized country from an agrarian country. The agriculture sector has been confronting with the issue of labor shortage.\nThis study finds out the changes in the agricultural labor force status of Thailand over the periods of time in terms of employment status from agriculture to non-agriculture, educational attainment, percentage of the population and minimum wage rate. Thailand could take advantages from increasing number of migrant/alien workers from its neighboring countries who come to the country due to its highest minimum wage rate. It was found that the alien/migrant workers have been contributing to the production and the economy. These workers could supplement the labor shortage in the agricultural activity.\nKeywords: Agriculture, labor force, Thailand, alien workers, impacts on the economy\nChanges in the agricultural labor force of Thailand\nThe agricultural sector of Thailand was once an engine of the country\u2019s economic growth. Over the past four decades, agricultural land expansion has increased the outputs of the economy and the agricultural sector gained a major comparative advantage in the international trade. Due to its labor-abundance in the past, agricultural sector could even provide supplies to the industrial sector with cheap labors and other production factors. Agriculture has been playing a crucial role even though land surplus started to vanish in the 1980s. (Siamwalla, 1996)\nThe share of export to GDP has increased from 26% in 1990 to 64% in 2008. Thailand has moved from classic primary export dependence where there was a restricted expansion of manufacturing employment of only 14% of the labor force in 1990 to export-lead industrialization where there was a greater use of labor in the manufacturing industry accounting for 19.5% in 2008. Nevertheless, even though Thailand exports about more than half of its GDP, it is very interesting to note that Thailand has a larger service sector than the manufacturing sector. The changes in industrial structure in Thailand were largely similar to those in Japan. From 1920-70, in Japan, the decline of agriculture has led directly to the expansion of services. The employment in the manufacturing industry peaked around one-third of the total labor force (Singelmann, 1978).\nFrom 1947-2008, Thailand has also experienced a drastic decline in agricultural employment from 84.8% in 1947 to 42.4% in 2008, a rapid rise in service employment from 12% to 33%, and an increase in manufacturing employment from 2.4% to 20% (Nitungkorn, 1985). In 2008, the service employment share is 8 percentage points higher than the manufacturing employment share.\nFrom an agrarian country, Thailand has turned out to be a more industrialized country. Labor market has been transformed in various dimensions such as population, education, labor force structure, wages and working hours. Thailand becomes an even more educated society. Workers with secondary level of education or higher increased from 17% in 1990 to 25% in 2008.\nAs shown in the Fig. 1, the percentage of agricultural labor shows a significant decline from 72.99% in 1975 to 34.26% in 2015 September according to the Labor Force Survey. Meanwhile, the labor force employed in the non-agricultural sector rose from 27.01% in 1975 to 65.74% in 2015.\nFig. 1. Percentage changes in the labor force employment status from agriculture to non-agricultural sector in the period from 1975 to 2015\nSource: Labor Force Survey in Thailand, National Statistical Office, Ministry of Information and Technology\nPercentage of population in labor force from 1990 to 2008\nFrom 1990-2008, labor force population whose ages range from 15-24 declined dramatically while those aged 65 and above increased slightly. More than 80% of the population aged 25-55 participated in the labor market. The population whose ages range from 34-39 was the age group with highest labor force participation; in 1990, the share was 89.0% in 1990 and increased slightly to 90.9% in 2008. The population whose ages range from 15-19 declined in employment from 64.5% in 1990 to 25.0% in 2008 while the population whose ages range from 20-24 decreased in participation from 81.4% to 67.6% because more population aged 15-24 were in school. Labor force participation for population 65-69 was 45.9% in both years, but those for 70 and above was up. Population whose ages range from 70-74 increased from 24.5 % to 28.2% , aged 76-80 increased from 24.5 to 28.2 percent, and aged 80 and over increased from 5.0 to 6.8 percent as shown in Fig. 2. (Aemkulwat, 2010).\nFig. 2. Percentage of population in labor force in 1990 and 2008 classified by age groups\nSource: Labor Force Survey 1990, 2000 and 2008\nEducational level of total labor force\nThailand proved to be a more educated society during the period of 1990 to 2008 with labor share of upper secondary and higher education, from 17% in 1990 to 25% in 2008 amid the labor with elementary education or lower decrease from 68% to 57% as shown in Fig. 3.\nFor workers with lower education, the share of workers with less than elementary level was largest; it comprised 43% in 1990 and reduced to 31% in 2008 at the negative growth rate of 0.6% over 1990-2008 as shown in Fig. 4. Workers with no education, the lowest group, were down from 3.5% to 2.9. Workers with elementary education, the second largest group, were up from 21.4% to 23% at the rate of 1.8%. Workers having lower secondary education increased at 2.3% with share rising from 13.0 to 15%.\nFig. 3. Educational levels of total labor force from 1990 to 2008\nSeries 1: 1990-2000, Series 2: 2000-2008, Series 3: 1990-2008\nEducational level and labor force structure changes\nFig. 4. Changes in levels of educational attainment of total labor force from 1990 to 2008\nAs the educational attainment of total labor forces became higher from 1990 to 2008, the agricultural labor percentage declined by 0.90% and non-agricultural labor increased by 7.5% in the same period. This could probably mean higher educational attainment induced the labor to shift from agriculture to non-agricultural sectors like manufacturing and service sector. Meanwhile, the aging population increased slightly.\nMinimum wage rate\nAccording to ILO, the \u201cminimum wage rate\u201d is the minimum rate of wages determined by the wage committee under the registered migrants under the Labor Protection Act (1998). It is an indicator of the workers\u2019 standard of living. The minimum wage rate is based on the cost of living, which incorporates all basic needs (foodstuff, shelter, transportation fare, basic medical care and other miscellaneous private expenses). After decentralizing the government wage policies, minimum wages are now set in Thailand by regional agencies as shown in Fig. 5.\nFrom 2003 to 2006, Thailand\u2019s economy entered an expansionary phase, demonstrated by the consistent increase in the GDP growth rate, at around 4.5\u20137%, the highest range after the 1997 financial crisis (Bank of Thailand, 2010). However, minimum wages have not been adjusted to inflation on a systematic basis and therefore real minimum wages have declined. In 2012, according to the Ministry of Labor (2012), workers in only seven provinces receive a minimum wage rate of 300 baht per day. The Wage Committee announced on 2 November 2011 that minimum wages would be set at 300 Baht per day for 7 provinces (Bangkok, Nakorn Pathom, Nonthaburi, Pathum hani, Phuket, Samutprakarn, and Samutsakorn. These provinces are in the central area and close to Bangkok). This entered into force from 1 April 2011. In October 2012, the Wage Committee made a further announcement that wages in the remaining 70 provinces would also be set at 300 Baht, starting from 1 January 2013 (Ministry of Labor of Thailand, 2012). It implies to the same wage rate of 300 baht per day in 2015 according to Bank of Thailand. (ILO, 2015).\nFig. 5: Minimum daily wage rate\nSource: http://www.tradingeconomics.com\nImpacts of alien workers on Thai economy\nThailand has been relying on the alien/ migrant workers from its neighboring countries where the minimum wage rates are lower. The daily minimum wage rates are shown in Table 1. Thailand has the highest rate of minimum wages with 8.22 US $, followed by Malaysia (5.97-6.71 US$), Cambodia (4.13US$), and Myanmar (2.77US$). Lao PDR is found to have the lowest level of minimum wage rate among Thailand\u2019s neighboring countries. Since Thailand is standing the position of highest paid countries, the labor from neighboring countries continue to migrate Thailand and this make up the partial labor force for the country. The labor force of alien workers is fulfilling the labor shortage of Thailand\u2019s various industry.\nTable 1. Minimum wage rates in Thailand and its neighboring countries\n(Unit: US$)\nSource: Department of Labor and Employment of Philippines (2015)\nThe Kasetsart University and Office of Agricultural Economics (KU-OAE) Foresight Center which is called KOFC has done an analysis on the impacts of alien workers on Thailand\u2019s Economy. It was found that these workers increase value addition in Agricultural Production Sector approximately about 252,810 million baht. In this regard, agricultural sector is contributing by 27,233.31 milllion baht or about 10.77% of total production sector as can be seen in Table 2.\nTable 2. Number of alien workers employed in each different sector in 2014\n(Unit: person)\nSource: KOFC, Office of Agricultural Economics (2014)\nThe Contributions to Agricultural Production by alien workers in each type of agricultural product are calculated by KOFC. It was revealed that livestock was the most value added by these workers which is roughly 3,449 million Baht followed sugarcane and rice as approximately of 2,956 million Baht and 2,932 million Baht respectively as shown in Table 3 as follows;\nTable 3. The contributions to agricultural production by alien workers in 2014\n(Unit: million baht)\nAs it can be seen in Table 4, the highest number of Alien/migrant workers is from Cambodia where the minimum wage rate is almost half of that of Thailand. The second and third highest number of migrant laborers come from Myanmar and from Lao PDR where the minimum wage rate is almost one-fourth and one-eighth that of Thailand, respectively.\nTable 4. Thailand\u2019s registered number of alien workers registered in 2014\nThere are several recommendations to the government and decision makers to increase employment in agriculture sector which has been facing shortage of labor. In the recent decade, the high number of aging population is working in agriculture sector and many youth went to high schools and universities in the city. They would be reluctant to come back to work for their ancestors\u2019 farming activities and rather engaged in non-agricultural sector because agriculture is believed to be a tiresome career, which rely mostly on weather conditions and has lower amount of income.\nThe first recommendation is to encourage the educated youth workers and/or from the farming ancestors to engage in agriculture. This will enhance value-added agricultural products and wages in this sector due to increased number of skilled and youth labor.\nAgriculture is considered to be climate dependent, tiresome, and risky. There should be social protection support to farmers and farming households to overcome financial constraints and to enable them to manage risks that will affect their income. Provision of social protection in the form of social insurance scheme will have positive impacts on production and farm-level investments in agriculture. Such a social secure agricultural livelihood would likely attract the youth to be involved in farming. The current farmers which would have social insurance will also be able to avail themselves of medical treatment for rehabilitation. This rehabilitation from social insurance will help safeguard, and restore illness for the work of farmers. This means, establishing social insurance scheme either by private sector or by government can promote sustainable food systems, natural resource management and resilient livelihood.\nOther recommendation to solve labor shortage in the agriculture sector would be to encourage and improve farm mechanization which will require small number of labor, save time in operation and become more effective.\nAlien/migrant workers have been providing the required labor force in Thailand\u2019s economy. Their role is huge. Therefore there should be adequate and reliable data and information for successful implementation of policies regarding the handling of migrant labor force. There is a strong need for the registration process of alien workers to be provided with one-stop service for quick and reliable access of the data and information regarding alien workers.\nAemkulwat C., (Jan, 2010) Labor Force Structure Change and Thai Labor Market, 1990-2008\nBank of Thailand,2015.

        "raw_content": "Weight Loss and Sleep Apnea: How Much Weight Do I Need to Lose?\nSleep apnea is most commonly found in people who are overweight or obese. The type of sleep apnea that is common to obese people is called obstructive sleep apnea, where the flow of air through the airways is blocked, preventing normal breathing.\nSymptoms of obstructive sleep apnea are:\none or more pauses in breathing during the night\ndepression, anxiety or other mood disorders\nDoctors often treat sleep apnea with the use of CPAP machines. However, many patients find using CPAP machines unpleasant because wearing the mask is uncomfortable and can interfere with comfortable sleep. CPAP machines often cause runny nose, sinus pressure or congestion. Ear infections are rare but occur when congestion builds up in the sinuses near the ear.\nAdjusting to CPAP machines takes time, and many patients stop using their machine or do not use it every night. Without consistent treatment, the risks associated with sleep apnea become more likely to occur. Untreated sleep apnea causes problems such as heart arrhythmia, high blood pressure, stroke and heart attack. It can also cause or worsen diabetes.\nAlthough CPAP machines can reduce the effects of sleep apnea if they are used correctly and consistently, it is only an example of treating symptoms rather than the problem. Since obstructive sleep apnea often results from being overweight or obese, people who wish to relieve their sleep apnea symptoms can lose weight.\nWeight loss does not always cure sleep apnea since there can be other issues that cause the condition, including deviated septum or other facial abnormalities. However, most people find their sleep apnea symptoms are relieved or even go away entirely after weight loss.\nIn clinical research, doctors have found weight loss usually results in relief from sleep apnea symptoms. As patients lose more weight, they experience greater relief of their condition. However, losing as little as 14 pounds causes dramatic improvement. 10 percent of patients who lost 14 pounds were able to stop using their CPAP machines entirely.\nOther studies found that weight loss of 40 pounds or more caused a 58 percent reduction in sleep apnea symptoms. These patients experienced an average of 21 fewer incidents each night, such as pauses in breathing.\nThese patients in these studies were put on strict diets and lost weight fairly quickly, but weight loss does not have to be rapid to have a positive effect on sleep apnea. Patients in a third study lost 24 pounds on average over the course of one year. These patients experienced significant improvement from their sleep apnea and were three times more likely to have some relief from symptoms than people who did not lose weight.\nEveryone has a different body, and the amount of weight to lose to see improvement in sleep apnea symptoms varies. Although symptoms may not go away entirely, people typically see some improvement. It is worth losing the weight for the many health benefits of having a healthy weight.\nLose weight at a rate of about one to two pounds per week.\nObese people who reduce their weight by about 10 percent usually feel better and experience an improvement in their health.\nStaying active helps lose excess weight. Exercise for about 30 minutes four to five days each week.",

        "raw_content": "The Arc of Butler County credits its start to a grass roots initiative that began with concerned families and community leaders surrounding services and supports for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Because of these beginnings, The Arc of Butler County has a rich history of advocacy for adults and right-to-education for preschool and public school-aged children.\nOriginally incorporated under the name Butler County Chapter of the Pennsylvania Association for Retarded Children (PARC), The Arc of Butler County has been in operation for 56 years! In 1982, the agency legally changed its name to the Association of Retarded Citizens \u2013 Butler County. Operations continued under this name for 22 years, until November 2004, when the name was changed again to The Arc of Butler County to ensure continuity with changes made by our state (The Arc of Pennsylvania) and national organizations (The Arc of the United States).\nAfter incorporating in 1957, the Butler County Chapter of the Pennsylvania Association for Retarded Children, otherwise known as PARC, was started. Initially Sheltered Workshop services were provided by volunteers from the community; eventually enough funds were generated to hire permanent staff. Today, the Sheltered Workshop Program continues to operate under PARC Productions. Individuals are able to learn valuable job skills while earning a paycheck.\nIn 1959, The Arc of Butler County opened a preschool program for children ages 3-5, known as the Growth and Development Center. This program that began as a daycare eventually evolved to a licensed preschool program for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This program was closed in June 1989 when the Pennsylvania Department of Education and local Intermediate Unit became responsible for the preschool education of children with disabilities.\nIn 1973, The Arc of Butler County opened one of the first community residences for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Western Pennsylvania. This residence offered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, supervised housing for 8 individuals. The Arc of Butler County continues to provide this service through its Community Living Arrangement Program.\nCareer Opportunities for the Disabled (COD) was started in 1988. This program is designed to help individuals with not only intellectual and developmental disabilities, but also other disabilities, obtain and retain competitive employment within the community. The program was expanded in 1991 with the help of grant funds from the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR). Program offerings have expanded to provide job coaching and transition services to students leaving high school and entering the community. The COD Program continues to successfully train, coach, and place individuals in competitive employment\nThe Arc of Butler County's Family Living Program also began in 1988. Offering a supportive family atmosphere for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, this program was started as a complement to the Community Living Arrangement Program. The purpose of Family Living is to offer a healthy, nurturing, family environment to individuals by including them into the lifestyle of a private family home. Today, the Family Living Program continues to provide this valuable service to individuals throughout Butler County.\nIn 1998, the Supportive Housing Program was initiated. Designed to provide individualized staff support for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities who live in the community, whether independently or with their families. By ensuring that individuals have adequate supports with medical appointments/follow-ups, transportation, socialization, budgeting, and other needs; the Supportive Housing Program helps these individuals live in the least restrictive environment safely. Since its inception in 1998, this program has expanded every year. The Arc of Butler County continues to ensure individuals are receiving the adequate supports to live on their own in the community.",

        "raw_content": "Beverly Hills : Theater Lot, Alley Closed\nThe City Council approved a request by CSL Realty Advisors Inc. to close a portion of an alley and a parking lot behind the Beverly Theater to prepare for the theater's demolition.\nThe demolition was unsuccessfully opposed by preservationists who wanted the city to restore the historic Wilshire Boulevard building.\nClosure of the alley and the parking lot is needed to ensure the safety of pedestrians and to give demolition crews a place to park their trucks and equipment, city officials said. Workers have already removed the theater's seats, curtains, chandeliers and other fixtures. Columbia Savings & Loan, which owns the theater, plans to construct a three-story office building with underground parking at the site.\nShortly after it bought the theater last year, Columbia Savings & Loan agreed to a request by preservationists that the city be given time to consider buying the property and preserving the theater, which opened in 1931. But a City Council committee concluded last month that the city could not afford the $23 million to take over and renovate the building.\nBeverly Hills Theater\nGroup Has 90 Days to Find Buyer for Beverly Theater\nS & L Negotiates With Preservationists : Demolition of...",

        "raw_content": "Court upholds child-porn law\nMessages offering or seeking sexual images of minors -- real or not -- will no longer qualify as free speech.\nMay 20, 2008|David G. Savage | Times Staff Writer\nWASHINGTON \u2014 The Supreme Court gave prosecutors a powerful tool Monday to attack the spread of child pornography online, ruling that people who send messages over the computer offering or seeking sexual images of children can be sent to prison, even when no such pornography exists.\nThe 7-2 ruling, which upheld a 5-year-old law, rejected the claim that such messages were protected as free speech.\n\"This will be a big help,\" said Patrick Trueman, a Virginia lawyer who led the Justice Department's anti-obscenity unit during the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations. \"You don't have to prove the underlying material is illegal. The criminal offense is the speech that offers to sell or trade in illegal material.\"\nMonday's ruling goes a long way toward overturning the effect of a 2002 decision that shielded computer-generated pornography.\nThe justices said then that since no real children were involved in producing such images, the material deserved protection as a form of free speech.\nProsecutors then faced a practical problem. How could they prove that realistic images of child sex scenes involved actual children? Defendants could assert they were \"virtual\" pornography.\nIn reaction, Congress passed a law in 2003 making it a crime to exchange online messages about \"any material or purported material\" that would cause \"another to believe\" it depicted a minor engaged in sex, whether \"actual or simulated.\" Violations call for at least five years and as much as 20 years in prison.\nThe fate of the law remained in doubt until Monday because of legal challenges.\nTwo years ago, a U.S. appeals court in Atlanta ruled the law unconstitutional because it was overly broad. It could apply, in theory, to a grandfather who sends an e-mail titled \"Good pics of kids in bed\" to describe a photo of sleeping toddlers, the appellate judges said.\nOther critics said the law could ensnare those who touted a Hollywood movie that contained simulated sex scenes.\nIn Monday's opinion, the high court dismissed those objections as \"fanciful hypotheticals\" and upheld the law.\n\"Child pornography harms and debases the most defenseless of our citizens,\" said Justice Antonin Scalia.\n\"We hold that offers to provide or requests to obtain child pornography are categorically excluded from the 1st Amendment,\" he added.\nScalia knocked down each of the objections to the new measure.\nNo prosecutor or jury would believe that a grandfather was offering children engaged in \"sexually explicit conduct\" when he sends an e-mail describing \"kids in bed,\" Scalia said. The statute does not apply \"where the material at issue is a harmless picture of a child in a bathtub,\" he added.\nHe said that those who advertise or sell movies were not in danger either. \"We think it implausible that a reputable distributor of Hollywood movies, such as Amazon.com, believes that one of these films contains actual children engaging in actual or simulated sex on camera . . .\" he said. \"The average person understands that sex scenes in mainstream movies use nonchild actors, depict sexual activity in a way that would not rise to the explicit level necessary under the statute, or, in most cases, both.\"\nJustices David H. Souter and Ruth Bader Ginsburg dissented. They questioned the court's retreat from the ruling that protected \"fake\" child pornography from prosecution.\nThe Justice Department brought 1,209 child pornography cases in 2006, and in 95% of them, the defendant pleaded guilty, Souter said.\n\"The government . . . seems to be selling itself short; it appears to be highly successful in convicting child pornographers,\" he said.\n\"Perhaps I am wrong,\" Souter added. \"But without some demonstration that juries have been rendering exploitation of children unpunishable, there is no excuse for cutting back on the 1st Amendment.\"\nThe decision in U.S. vs. Williams restores the conviction of a Florida man who told an FBI agent online that he had photos of his own 4-year-old daughter engaged in sex. Agents raided his home and found child pornography on his computer, but not the photos that he had described.\nHe pleaded guilty to child pornography charges, but challenged the law's so-called pandering provision as unconstitutional.\nHigh court to review child pornography law",

''But when I read the story in Florida Magazine about the personals Strictly Personal, Feb. 9,'' says Langford, 35, of Longwood, ''and saw that no one had met the man or woman of their dreams through their ads, I thought maybe people would be interested in my story.''\nAbout six years ago, Langford, divorced with a 4-year-old child, was having trouble paying her rent. She answered an ad placed by a divorced man in a similar predicament who was looking for a roommate and, along with her daughter, moved in with him.\n''I grew up in the '60s and '70s and was pretty liberated, so I had no problem with the situation,'' she says. ''Our deal was strictly business. I kept the house clean and did the dishes. He babysat my daughter when I went out on dates.''\nAfter a few months, however, she began to see that her roommate, Bill Langford, was more substantial and attractive than the men she was dating. ''The more I went out with other guys, the better he looked,'' she says.\nThe roommates began dating and shortly thereafter decided to make the relationship premanent. They have been happily married for more than five years and have a 5-year-old son together, in addition to five other children from their previous marriages.\n''The funny thing is, my husband's very shy. He doesn't say much at all. He would never have come up and talked to me in a bar,'' Langford says. ''And if he had, I probably would have given him the cold shoulder. If he'd answered one of my ads I probably wouldn't have gone out with him. It took the experience of being roommates for me to see what a high-quality human being he is. So there's more than one way to find an ideal mate through the newspaper.''\nHow Did You, Spouse Fall In Love?\nCourt Overturns Killer Woods' Death Sentence\nStoried Hotel Has Its Last Hurrah\nThe Cold Shoulder In A Hot City\nWoods' Try For Retrial Is Rejected",

        "raw_content": "Talking to your partner and discussing what both of your expectations are for when your baby comes home will help to relieve some of the stress you may experience. You may find that your partner has a different idea of his role than you do. He may see himself as the breadwinner and not responsible for anything around the house, although this is quite an old fashioned view on fatherhood. Most men today relish the opportunity of helping to raise their children with a \u201chands on\u201d approach. Try to let your partner take on as much as they are willing, it will lighten your load, and there is definitely no need to be a martyr.\nIf you can both establish what your expectations are while you are still rational, and before you begin to suffer from the effects of sleep deprivation, this will lead to a far more harmonious relationship. It might be a good idea to put a few ideas down on paper. Good luck.\nPreparing a Sibling\nBringing a new baby into the world of a toddler can be extremely unsettling for them. You are the best judge of your child and what information they will need, go with your instincts and tell them what you think they will need to know. Here is a guide to what you may do.\nMost women do not tell their children about a new baby until around the 13th week. This is usually past the \u201cdanger time\u201d of pregnancy and it shortens the wait for your toddler. Remember they have no real concept of time and they will want the baby to come out, or stay in, as soon as you have told them.\nTry to include them in your discussions about the new baby as much as possible. One thing to keep in mind is try not to offer them choices like \u201cDo want a brother or a sister?\u201d as they clearly have no choice in the matter, or \u201cWhat shall we call the new baby?\u201d, unless they actually do have an input in to choosing the name.\nTry to set up situations where they can be involved in the decision, such as buying clothes, setting up the nursery and positioning of furniture.\nLet your toddler select a gift for his new brother or sister that he can take with him to visit you at the hospital.\nMost children respond well to honesty and they appreciate knowing what will happen to them while you are away in hospital. Will Nanny be staying at your house or is your toddler going to stay with friends or relatives?\nAlthough you are feeling very tired as a result of being pregnant try not to use this a reason why you cannot do something for your toddler. They will pick up on this and it may create resentment towards your baby even before birth.\nBuying a gift for your toddler from your baby that you can give to him when he first visits you in hospital is a great way to introduce your new baby.\nBringing a new baby home can be very destabilising for your toddler, be prepared for some changes in their behaviour as they strive to find their place in this new extended family.\nWhat will change for dad after bub arrives?\nPreparing the family for a new baby",

With the help of some very talented friends, The Hay-Man Dreams is his seventh studio album and, like its predecessors, its central theme is a very personal one to Armstrong. He then elaborates and expands on the theme through a series of musical movements, in this case six interlocking songs.\nThese songs tell the mythical tale of a farm labourer, who meets an early death, leaving behind a wife and young family. His widow lovingly builds a scarecrow effigy as a shrine to him, and the eponymous Hay-Man spends his days dreaming of life beyond his field. Its inspiration is Armstrong's great grand-father, a gamekeeper and farm labourer, who died in mysterious circumstances in a ditch at the side of the road.\nJoining Armstrong is drummer, Kyle Fenton, vocalist Rachael Hawnt, Matt Stevens on guitar and ambient effects, Big Big Train's violinist Rachel Hall and David Allan as narrator.\nAn excerpt from the poem, The Scarecrow by Walter de la Mare forms part of the slow and gentle build-up to Tethered And Bound. There are delicate shades of Pink Floyd's Echoes to add to the tension in the sound, before the musical story begins quietly and slightly eerily as Armstrong's clear, distinct voice enters. It moves along slowly but deliberately, depicting the plight of the hay-man rooted in his field, looking ahead at the monotony of the coming days, so brilliantly caught in the music.\nAn acoustic guitar begins Trouble In The Forest, a lovely, short, lyrically descriptive song, that sets the scene of the hay-man's immediate environs during which Stevens' transcendent guitar takes it into another dimension. Again, the musical arrangement is understated and almost metronomic in its precision.\nOn The Motorway, Armstrong shows remarkable technique in his guitar and a terrific turn of vocal phrasing, emphasising how the hay-man sees the cars careering past as his possible means of escaping his monotony - in his dreams of course. There's an unexpected diversion of mood when heavy guitar riffing comes in and Armstrong's voice turns rock-bluesy over keyboards.\nIt's a style which really suits him and taps into his love of bands like Deep Purple as the ensuing \u201cout there\u201d classic rock guitar solo further demonstrates.\nA simple recurring piano motif is all it takes to evoke the innate sadness in Cut The Corn, the hay-man returning to his meditations in a muddy field. There's some gorgeous orchestration and Spanish guitar to further enhance this overarching sombre mood.\nMelancholy Death Of A Gamekeeper is again a simple song, sung and played beautifully, resonant guitar and flowing piano accompanying the song dedicated to the plight of Armstrong's great grand-father.\nRachael Hawnt and Rachel Hall feature prominently on The Hay-Man, the final track. Hawnt's voice is haunting and urgent, while Allan appears again with another extract from The Scarecrow. Rocking guitars feature as Hawnt's voice soars skywards. Then there's a distinct mood change and Hall's plaintive violin, accompanied by birdsong, evokes a feeling of the seasons changing and new hope in the hay-man's existence before Armstrong's dreamy voice drifts in for the final time.\nOnce again, Armstrong has produced a beautiful, absorbing and deeply affecting album, full of atmosphere and emotion, accompanied by some superlative playing and singing. Miss it at your peril - and spare a thought next time you pass a field and see a scarecrow.",

        "raw_content": "Cosmic Anxiety\nThe internet is often described as a place for the \u201cimmaterial\u201d flow of information. However, as a medium of information flow, the internet is material. It consists of cables, computers, cell phones, and other technical tools. When passing through the internet, information leaves material traces. Computers do not forget, as everyone knows. All erased information can be retrieved. The passage of information is reversible\u2014unlike the flow of time. One could say that the internet manifests the old dream famously formulated at the end of Richard Wagner\u2019s Parsifal: time indeed becomes space. Thus, the internet offers the promise of a collective memory\u2014common to all humankind. Everything that is put on the internet becomes generally accessible and remains so, at least potentially, for an indefinite period of time. Of course, keeping information about things is not the same as keeping the things themselves.\nVirtual depositories of art images are much more compact and much cheaper to maintain than traditional art museums, for example. The same can be said about publishing houses, which are constantly expanding the e-component of their programs. And the same can be said about the websites of individual artists\u2014where one finds the fullest representation of what they do. This is mostly what artists show during a studio visit nowadays; they put a laptop on the table and present the documentation of their activities. The internet thus gives the author a possibility to make his or her art accessible to almost everyone around the world.\nThe internet leads to the globalization of the author, the person of the author. I do not mean the fictional, authorial subject which allegedly invests the artwork with individual intentions and meanings that are then to be hermeneutically deciphered and revealed. This authorial subject has already been deconstructed and proclaimed dead many times over. I mean the real person existing in off-line reality, to which internet data refers. This author uses the internet not only to write novels or produce art but also to buy tickets, make restaurant reservations, and conduct business. All these activities take place in the same integrated space of the internet, and all are potentially accessible to other internet users.\nOf course, like other individuals and organizations, authors try to escape this total visibility by creating sophisticated systems of passwords and data protection. Today subjectivity has become a technical construction; the contemporary subject is defined as an owner of a set of passwords that only he or she knows. The contemporary subject is primarily a keeper of a secret. In a certain way, this corresponds with a very traditional definition of the subject as knowing something about himself or herself, which God alone knows but other people cannot, because they are ontologically incapable of reading other people\u2019s thoughts. Today we are not dealing with ontologically but technically protected secrets. The internet is the place where the subject is originally configured\u2014as a transparent, observable subject\u2014and then begins to become technically protected in order to conceal the secret originally revealed. However, any technical protection can be broken. Today hermeneutics is the work of the hacker. The contemporary internet is a place of cyber wars, in which the secret is the prize. Knowing the secret means putting the subject constituted by this secret under one\u2019s control. The cyber wars are wars of subjectivation and desubjectivation, which can unfold only because the internet is the original space of transparency and referentiality for every user. But what about the internet itself as a material object?\nIn fact, the internet seems to be much less immaterial than previous bearers of communication and memory. Take traditional mail as an example. A letter can be sent in a bottle that is thrown into the sea, or it can be transported by specially trained pigeons. Although these are exceptional cases, they illustrate the difference between traditional mail and e-mail. Using the terminology introduced by political theorist Carl Schmitt, one could say that traditional mail was subjected to the nomos of the sea\u2014and e-mail to the nomos of the Earth.\u00b9 The route between sender and receiver taken by the traditional letter was never clearly defined; it was accidental and dependent on the personal decisions of the message bearers responsible. These decisions could also go wrong, and the letter would then be irretrievably lost. In contrast, e-mails are transported not by individuals but by channels and carriers that have fixed trajectories. The internet is inscribed onto the Earth\u2014and subject to its fate\u2014in a much more radical way than during earlier periods of the history of communication. The contemporary phase of globalization that relies on the internet as its leading medium thus seems to be more vulnerable and fragile than previous phases. Wars and catastrophes have destroyed many civilizations of the past, but many artworks, texts, and documents survived, precisely because they were kept in unusual places and accidentally escaped destruction. The Earth itself is a huge museum\u2014as shown by archeological excavations. If the internet were to crash as a whole, the probability of individual messages being preserved is low. And even if some data were to be saved, it would be difficult to understand to what reality it refers. In this case, the hardware of the internet, minus its information, would be aestheticized\u2014like Roman aqueducts today, minus the water.\nThat is one of the reasons why the fear of cosmic catastrophe has became so widespread in contemporary culture. In the modern era we became accustomed to understanding human beings as determined by the social milieu in which they live, as knots in informational networks, and as organisms dependent on their environment. In the time of globalization we have come to learn that we are dependent on everything that happens around the globe\u2014politically, economically, and ecologically. The planet Earth is not isolated within the universe. It relies on the processes that take place in cosmic space: black matter, waves and particles, star explosions, and galactic collapse. The fate of mankind also depends on these processes, because all these cosmic waves and particles penetrate our human bodies. The positioning of the Earth within the universal whole determines the conditions under which living organisms can survive on its surface.\nThis dependence of mankind on cosmic events that are uncontrollable and unknown is the source of a specifically modern form of anxiety. Call it cosmic anxiety. During the period of the Cold War people feared the potential of nuclear war to destroy our civilization in its totality. Today this possibility of collective human suicide seems remote enough. However, it has left behind a legacy of various psychological traumas. The progress towards a radiant future does not seem guaranteed. It is no accident that contemporary mass culture is obsessed with visions of asteroids coming from the black of space and destroying the Earth. This anxiety also takes more subtle forms. For example, there is Georges Bataille\u2019s theory of the \u201caccursed share,\u201d\u00b2 which describes the Sun as consistently sending more energy to the Earth than it and the organisms living on its surface can absorb. After all the effort expended in using this energy for the production of goods and raising the living standard of the population, there remains a non-absorbed, non-used remnant of this solar energy. This excess energy is by nature destructive; it can be spent only through violence and war or through ecstatic festivals and sexual orgies that channel and absorb this remaining energy through less dangerous activities. Thus, human culture and politics are determined by cosmic energies\u2014forever shifting between order and disorder.\nToday hermeneutics is the work of the hacker.\nFriedrich Nietzsche described our material world as a place of the eternal battle between Apollonian and Dionysian forces, between cosmos and chaos. There are two different ways of responding to this battle: the ecstatic embrace of chaos or the attempt to control the cosmos and thus secure its victory over chaos. The first means celebrating chaos as a chance to experience the intensity of life instead of only consuming information about life\u2014a path of returning to pure presence, of reentering the irreversible flow of time. This option is seductive because it appeals to vital forces that remain inactive in the bodies of internet users sitting at their computers. It is also appealing to artists, because chaos allows them to break free from the imprisonment of specific cultural identities and regional political orders\u2014to take the path of universal anarchy.\nThe means of control over the forces of universal destruction, in contrast, is the universal state\u2014the global victory of the Apollonian order. Our time is often characterized as post-historical or even posthuman. Both of these characterizations have their origin in the course of lectures on Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel\u2019s Phenomenology of Spirit (1807) given by philosopher Alexandre Koj\u00e8ve at l\u2019\u00c9cole des hautes \u00e9tudes in Paris from 1933 to 1939.\u00b3 For Koj\u00e8ve, the end of history does not merely mean economic and informational globalization but political globalization. From the Koj\u00e8vian point of view, we are still not quite post- historical or post-human. We will be post-historical, only when we live in a universal and homogeneous state acting to secure our personal and social survival. Only such a state could develop the technology that would be able to protect us from cosmic catastrophes. Today such a universal state remains utopian. However, one could argue that the contemporary art world tries to compensate for the lack of the universal state. It is important to remember that Koj\u00e8ve was not only a follower of Hegel but also a nephew of and commentator on Wassily Kandinsky, who believed in the potential of art as a means of influencing individual consciousness and leading humanity toward a new universal order.\nThis avant-garde dream has not been fully abandoned in our current world of contemporary art. It is often said that contemporary art is totally commercialized, and that the artwork has become pure commodity. However, this is only partially true. Contemporary international exhibitions, biennials, and events such as documenta and Manifesta, primarily address the general public, not the collectors of art. And these exhibitions are conceived by their curators as vehicles for sending universal messages in the name of international art. In this sense, the curators act as appointees and agents of a non-existing universal and homogeneous \u201cstate.\u201d The world of art should therefore not be ashamed of the bureaucratic structures and institutions that channel this public appeal. In this context it is worth recalling a slogan coined by one of the early generations of anarchists: \u201cAnarchy is the mother of order.\u201d\n\u00b9 Carl Schmitt, The Nomos of the Earth, (Candor, NY, 2006), p. 43ff.\n\u00b2 Georges Bataille, Accursed Share, vol.1 (New York, 1991), p. 21\u201322.\n\u00b3 Alexandre Koj\u00e8ve, Introduction to the Reading of Hegel: Lectures on the Phenomenology of Spirit (Ithaca, NY, 1980).\nBORIS GROYS is a philosopher, essayist, art critic, media theorist, and an internationally renowned expert on Soviet-era art and literature, specifically the Russian avant-garde.

        "title": "Five Takes on an Unemployment Rate Below 4% | The Fiscal Times",
        "raw_content": "\u00a9 / Reuters\nThe unemployment rate dropped to 3.9 percent in April, the Labor Department said Friday, the lowest reading since December 2000. The economy added 164,000 jobs, a solid number but less than the 195,000 jobs expected by analysts. Year-over-year wage growth clocked in at 2.6 percent, more sluggish than many had hoped. And one reason the unemployment rate fell was because the labor market shrank \u2013 410,00 people left the workforce in April, though that was due in part to more baby boomers simply aging out of the market.\nWhile most celebrated the extraordinary move below 4 percent, some analysts expressed concerns about wage growth and the pace of job creation, and questions about inflation, the efficacy of the GOP tax cuts, and future interest rate hikes by Federal Reserve hovered in the background of much of the commentary.\nJason Furman, chair of President Obama\u2019s council of economic advisers, summed up the mixed messages in the report: \u201cUnemployment of 3.9% is positively exciting. But the ~150m people with jobs care most about wages and up 2.6% in last 12 months is pretty disappointing.\u201d\nHere\u2019s what four other analysts had to say about the jobs report Friday:\n1) No signs of wage inflation: \u201c\u2026 the labor market continues to create jobs at a healthy pace, but the modest indications of accelerating wage growth in earlier reports have all disappeared. Even in the low-paying restaurant sector, employers don\u2019t seem to feel a need to raise pay. On the plus side, this should mean the Federal Reserve Board has little reason to raise interest rates. Even with an unemployment rate below 4.0 percent, there is no evidence of inflationary pressures.\u201d\n\u2013 Dean Baker, Center for Economic and Policy Research\n2) The labor market may be weaker than it seems: \"Wages \u2026. remain lackluster, rising at a slower-than-expected pace. Indeed, if the U.S. labor market was as strong as a 3.9% unemployment rate implies with such a minimal amount of labor market slack that such a level suggests, wages would be rising at a much more robust pace. Thus, it\u2019s clear a broader measure of the unemployment rate nearer 8% more accurately depicts the true and more modest health of the labor market.\u201d\n\u2013 Lindsey Piegza, chief economist at Stifel\n3) Uncertainty over the tax cuts: \u201cWe need some time to see how the tax cut plays out. There's a possibility the tax cuts give us a capital deepening, and over time you might get some productivity growth. At the same time, it's also possible the tight labor market might engender firms to upgrade their [workers'] skill set in a way that would not happen if there was more labor available.\u201d\n\u2013 Joseph LaVorgna, chief economist Americas at Natixis\n4) Mixed messages for investors: \"\u2026 the unemployment report was helpful for the bears and was also helpful for the bulls: It underscores the tug-of-war in the market. You had a pullback in the wages, but then again, if you look below the headline number, it shows strength. It helps assuage fears that inflation in galloping higher.\"\n\u2013 Quincy Krosby, chief market strategist at Prudential Financial",

        "raw_content": "Review: The Chronicles of Narnia: The Silver Chair\nBy Ben / August 25, 2011 / no comments\nThe Silver Chair is the fourth book in the Chronicles of Narnia series. It is the first book that does not involve the key characters of the Pevensie children; instead their cousin Eustace Scrubb takes a second trip to Narnia, along with a school fellow named Jill Pole. Chronologically The Silver Chair takes place many years after Eustace and Lucy\u2019s visit to Narnia in the Voyage of the Dawn Treader and some read it as the sixth rather than fourth book of the series.\nFrom the start The Silver Chair has a more adult feel to it, the book opens with an explanation of Jill\u2019s distress at school as she is being bullied and this dark and somewhat disturbing tone continues \u2013 for the most part \u2013 throughout the book. This makes for a real change compared to the previous books in the series which have an almost irritating innocence about them, whilst The Silver Chair boasts awe inspiring descriptions of the views across great summits and twisted and creepy travels through underground caves.\nIt can not be denied that the book is still very religious, however for those readers who do not find this particularly appetizing it can almost be overlooked on several occasions when Aslan is portrayed as more of a helping hand than a religious entity.\nThe Silver Chair includes some truly monstrous moments, including a murderous witch and man eating giants, yet these tales are still very tame by today\u2019s standards and although they allude to some rather dark material the book remains a children\u2019s story above all else. It is the first book in the series that stands strong throughout its length, whilst The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe becomes tedious and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is more like a collection of short stories The Silver Chair combines the extended adventure narrative of the first two books with the strength of plot of the third.\nA large part of the books\u2019 strength is derived from the absence of some characters; the four children of the original story, Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy, were particularly dated and insincere, whilst Jill Pole has a certain level of guts and personality. Her distress is written in such a way as to make her easy to relate to and above all human; where the Pevensie children before her have a sickly sweet air about them.\nThe writing style of the book continues to stink of the date of its publication however, which can make for quite cumbersome reading in places and adds to the infantile nature of the overall piece. Yet where the previous books would have skimmed over some of the terrors of the magical world The Silver Chair becomes almost indulgent at times. Even \u2013 albeit unspeakably brief \u2013 moments of suspense pepper the pages when, just for an instance, you fear that Jill and Eustace might not make it home after all.\nThe Silver Chair is still undeniably a children\u2019s story, with an air of religious allegory about it, but, for the first time, Lewis has on offer a slightly darker lion with a little bit of bite.\nReview: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis\nReview: The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian \u2013 C.S Lewis\nBook Review: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix \u2013 by J.K Rowling",

        "title": "Landing Southwest | Articles | Northern Kentucky Magazine",
        "raw_content": "Landing Southwest\nSouthwest Airlines comes to CVG with business support.\nTrey Grayson, president of the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce, remembers the Bengals\u2019 Thursday night loss to the Cleveland Browns Nov. 6, 2014 vividly.\nHe was part of a group of local business executives hosting Southwest Airlines at Paul Brown Stadium.\n\u201cNormally, I\u2019m not good in those settings because I want to watch the game,\u201d says the avid Bengals fan. That night, he says, \u201cI didn\u2019t have a problem missing any game action to talk to Southwest about why they should come to Cincinnati because the game was so bad.\u201d\nOne of the things he learned is that airlines usually don\u2019t make decisions quickly.\n\u201cThey were looking out a couple years,\u2019\u2019 he says.\nSouthwest\u2019s decision-making process culminated in January when the nation\u2019s largest domestic carrier announced it would launch eight daily flights from the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport June 4\u2014five to Chicago-Midway and three to Baltimore-Washington.\nSouthwest and airport officials say the cooperation and support demonstrated by businesses on both sides of the river was vital to its decision.\n\u201cThe business community on both sides of the river helped drive us to be able to make the move into Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky,\u201d says Dave Harvey, Southwest\u2019s managing director for business development.\n\u201cThe support of local businesses, leaders and travel managers gave us the confidence that the air service market was ready for the Southwest brand,\u201d he says.\nAt the announcement, Candace McGraw, CVG CEO, jokingly called landing Southwest her \u201cgreat white whale.\u201d She says her first trip after becoming CVG\u2019s top executive more than five years ago was to Southwest\u2019s Dallas headquarters.\n\u201cWe\u2019re their largest unserved market. They needed to be here,\u201d she says.\n\u201cWhen Southwest saw the business community acting in a collective way for the benefit of the region that made it an easy decision,\u201d she says.\nPart of the reason was because CVG\u2019s traffic is growing. Last year, the airport had its biggest growth in passenger traffic in more than a decade, up more than 7 percent from 2015.\nMore traffic means lower costs for airlines in the form of lower landing fees.\n\u201cWe\u2019re a very cost-effective place to operate,\u201d McGraw says. \u201cAnd Southwest saw the growth here.\u201d\nDallas-based Southwest built its growth and reputation as low-cost, high-service carrier by flying into less-crowded metro areas where it could turn around flights quickly on its fleet of Boeing 737s.\nBut as the airline has grown it\u2019s focused more on the long-distance business traveler and competing directly with other large carriers.\nGrayson says Southwest needed to be reassured that the local businesses would support it.\n\u201cThis was such a Delta-dominated market because of all the nonstops over the years,\u201d he says. \u201c[Southwest was] trying to gauge whether business travelers, not leisure travelers,would be open to it. It\u2019s one thing to come in with lower fares to locations where there is demand but would [businesses] actually switch over?\u201d\nA coalition of local business groups including the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber, the Northern Kentucky Chamber, REDI and Northern Kentucky Tri-ED, the Cincinnati Business Committee and the Cincinnati Regional Business Committee pursued a two-pronged effort. One was to identity the ticket demand from local businesses. The other piece was to get pledges of marketing support for Southwest once service was launched.\nMcGraw says the airport is actively trying to recruit new carriers and improve local service, but it can\u2019t provide financial or marketing support for one carrier over the others.\n\u201cThat is really a business community activity,\u201d says Grayson. Much of the effort was focused on the Cincinnati side of the river, which generates most of the business travel.\n\u201cThere was an effort to grab companies that flew a lot to certain markets and gauge what their usage might be,\u201d says Grayson.\nThe effort not only included the region\u2019s biggest corporations but \u201cbut also the mid-cap companies that fly regularly to engage them,\u201d he says.\nA spokesman for Southwest says, \u201cWe are working with local travel managers on commitments but we wouldn\u2019t comment on specifics such as dollar amounts of travel that\u2019s included.\u201d\nThe airline says it\u2019s not unusual to seek those types of commitments.\n\u201cIt\u2019s vital for us to know that we already have support before launching a new market or new destination,\u201d he says.\nWhile it was no secret that the airport was interested in landing service from Southwest or another leading low-cost carrier such as Jet Blue, the local business effort was largely a secret. That was by design, says Grayson.\n\u201cThere were articles about how in other communities there were very public recruiting efforts by the business community and we didn\u2019t have one,\u201d he says. \u201cIt was kind of frustrating because we knew efforts were going on but we chose not to go public.\u201d\nPartly he says it was to not create expectations that couldn\u2019t be fulfilled.\n\u201cThese are private companies making decisions you can\u2019t control,\u201d he says.\nAdditionally, he says, \u201cthe belief was that Southwest would make a decision based on the merits and not be swayed by the PR stuff.\u201d\nThat was probably a sound decision in hindsight because while Southwest expanded here it ended service in Dayton and Akron. A public effort might have created the incorrect impression that local effort stole service from those cities, Grayson says.\n\u201cIt was all about: We believe you can do business here. There\u2019s enough opportunity based on the numbers.\u201d\nFor its part, Southwest is already looking at the future.\n\u201cWe\u2019re already looking ahead to see where our customers are heading so that we can continue bringing nonstop travel that our customers are looking for,\u201d says Harvey in a statement.\nFor the region, the Southwest effort may have other dividends.\n\u201cI think it builds stronger ties for the future,\u201d says Grayson. \u201cWe have a great leader in Candace McGraw and we have the engagement of the business community from both sides of the river to promote the airport in a way we never have had before.\u201d",

And foreigners, hoping for a deal, are more eager than ever to buy here. The upshot: The residential real estate market is getting a small shot of globalization,\u201d states the article.\nInternational residential marketing magazines such as Unique Homes and DuPont Registry of Homes with distribution of 80 countries report, \u201cforeign Web hits more than doubled in the past year\u2026 and demand by foreign distributors for its luxury magazine is up 12% from last year.\u201d\nReal estate firms and luxury property broker consortiums have expanded to 43 countries including South America and Asia.\nIn many marketplaces prices have risen so high, \u201cthat the pool of potential purchasers has actually shrunk\u2014to folks who already own homes in the area and built up equity, or who have quick access to a lot of cash\u2026 another bonus: since foreigners find it more difficult to get financing here, they tend to pay all cash\u201d.\nNot everything is easy, though. \u201cIn cases where a buyer does need a mortgage, U.S. and foreign banks tend to drag the process out as they check credit ratings and financial information abroad and at home...it\u2019s also standard protocol in some countries to \u201clowball\u201d a property, typically offering about half of what a home is listed for...Don\u2019t be surprised if the buyer asks for a Ferrari at the closing table\u201d. One buyer requested that the sale include a caretaker for the property\u2014another wanted the grand piano and lawn tractor, while a foreign buyer from Nigeria wanted the seller to help him transfer funds by supplying his bank account and personal identification numbers.\nNAR (National Association of REALTORS\ufffd) report, \u201ca record 2.82 million second homes were sold in 2004, up 16.4% from the year before. Those purchases were more affordable for foreigners whose buying power has increased: The Canadian Dollar has risen 30% against the U.S. dollar over the past three years; the euro is up 50% over the same period, and the Australian dollar has jumped 39.\u201d\nIn response to this increase in foreign buyers, the NAR has, \u201claunched a program in November that has begun registering agents worldwide, if they pass a new online exam in NAR\u2019s database...the idea is that sellers will trust a foreign agent with the certification and be more likely to pursue a deal.\nIt should be noted that while the concept of foreign buyers is catching on, there are still marketplaces that haven\u2019t seen the fruits as yet. v\nSource: Wall Street Journal, April 2005",

        "raw_content": "Wow, this is kinda fucked up.\nSpeaking of that little eichi blog of mine, I haven't updated it since fucking Christmas. I'll try and get my shit together and make a post or two over there later this evening, because lord knows that the lord doesn't exist and that the FBI needs more evidence in their case against me.\nOkay, for those who A) haven't already noticed and B) care, comments are back up and running. Let me know if there are any problems (with the commenter, not the site content - nothing we can do there), because that most likely means I fucked something up. A quick test shows that things are OK, though.\nA big thanks goes out to the people at HaloScan for not only taking on the band of misfits that is former BlogSpeak users, but for doing so in a manner that allowed us to preserve our old comments. Also, thanks to Harry, the former BlogSpeak admin. It's a shame that guy was doing all this on a volunteer/donation basis, only to have to deal with a bunch of shit from his hosting service which lead to him shutting BlogSpeak down.\nThe transition to HaloScan was pretty easy, at least as far as Fe was concerned. I haven't hooked the sailor schoolgirl 'blog up just yet, but that's kinda low priority since no one comments there anyway. HaloScan is looking pretty good thus far. One feature that's really nice is that the list of comments will show not only the comments themselves, but also what post they're associated with. That was one thing BlogSpeak didn't have, and it was a pain in the ass when someone commented on an older post and I couldn't figure out what post it was just based on what the commenter said.\nThe only thing basic HaloScan doesn't have is e-mail notification of new comments. I can get that feature if I donate $10, though, which is something I might do. Despite my tendency to be frugal an asshole, I will definitely get good use out of that ten bucks, and it seems like a reasonable thing to do since HaloScan looks like it's run by two guys now, as opposed to one back at BlogSpeak. I was willing to front some money to help that one out, so at least there's a precedent in place to keep me from feeling like a total faceless consumer whore. Ignoring the fact that, well, that's exactly what I am.\nSo, yeah, have fun with the revitalized comments, Fuckheads. Try not to be lame, ignoring the fact that the site itself is indeed lame.\nYeah, people are just going to be falling all over themselves to pay nearly $700 to take the fun out of video games.\n\"The Kilowatt is at the intersection of these two and that demographic is capable of paying that kind of price.\" You're neglecting the fact that the people making up that gamer demographic are living in their parents' basement.\nReal nice. Bush cries \"ugly politics\" and \"unconstitutional\" when it suits him, then pulls shit like this.\nI wouldn't give a shit if they ran around naked. I'm still not watching any soccer. I know you say \"bullshit\" to my claim, but I seriously cannot tolerate that sport, no matter what they do to sex it up. The Baywatch principle is in effect; just because there are scantily clad women running around doesn't mean I'm going to watch some shitty show. I have plenty of other resources for stroke material that don't force me to watch Pamela Anderson (who hasn't been hot since the days when her tits were natural, by the way) \"acting\" or some boring-ass sport.\n\"There are two things that my kid is not getting involved in: drugs and soccer.\"\n- JFR\nHere's a link via Penny Arcade, who also had a comic on the subject.\nThis issue has been in the news for awhile, and I've thought about commenting on it several times. I kinda avoided it, partly out of laziness, and partly out of the fact that commenting on the issue would be even more redundant than a lot of the other posts I make on this 'blog. After all, I make my feelings about foul language pretty clear with the name of this 'blog. If that fails to drive home the point, then just about every bloody post I've made should do the trick. But, fuck it, I'm bored, so let's chat.\nGod, I am so sick of this stupid debate. This really goes to show what uptight, unsophisticated, sissy cunts we are as a society. We're afraid of BAD WORDS. Oh no! Not bad words! What the fuck will ever save us from the horror of bad words?!\nI promise you that except in cases of extreme volume, words never hurt anyone. Actually, I'm going to go a step further. Words never hurt anyone. Period. Not even really loud ones; we have physics and our own frail biology to blame in those cases. No, the words themselves have never done a goddamn thing to anyone.\nDon't even give me any shit about children, who are always the unwilling reason for this debate. Here's the deal: if your kids are so fragile that words like \"fuck\" or \"cunt\" are going to irreparably damage them, then it is time for you to just euthanize your kids. They are not long for this world if they can't handle some filthy language every now and then. A lot of you aren't going to like this, but if you don't want your kids being potty mouths, then I once again suggest you try some parenting. Sorry, some fucking parenting.\nPeople always like to forget that we have choices in this country. If you don't like the language or content of a particular TV program or radio broadcast, then just fucking change the channel or the station. \"But what if my kids are accidentally exposed to it? I can't control everything they see or hear.\" Yeah, welcome to reality, asshole. You can't control everything your children are exposed to. They're going to be exposed to all sorts of shit no matter how hard you try or how many laws are passed. Unless if you want to keep them locked in a room for their entire lives, it's gonna happen, and you're going to have to fucking own up to conceiving the little bastards and somehow resolve the situation. No one ever said it was gonna be easy, but you're the one who signed on for this, so shut the fuck up and leave the rest of us alone.\nSome people like to say that those who use curse words have limited vocabularies. This notion is just plain fucking stupid. For some people, yeah, that's true. Considering the size of the unwashed, uneducated masses out there, there are PLENTY of people with limited vocabularies, swear words or not. Shit, the way I look at it, my vocabulary is actually bigger since I will allow these words into my working set.\nI'll be the first to stand up and point out that fucking using \"fuck\" as every fucking other word in a goddamn fucking sentence is not the fucking way to fucking sound like you're any fucking kind of educated fuck with any sort of fucking class. Most people, however, are not that bad. Even I'm not that bad, although I obviously come close more often than some people. And I don't use bad words when I'm in a situation where I know it's not appropriate. I'm flexible like that. In addition to being able to communicate using the standard, everyday acceptable language, I can bust out the elevated diction MORE than the next guy. So fuck all that shit, silent Bob. Learn when and when not to use bad words, unless of course if you just don't care.\nOkay, that covers the social aspects of language. How about the legal ones? Well, not surprisingly, this arena pisses me off as well.\n\"It's irresponsible of our programmers to continue to try to push the envelope of a reasonable set of policies that tries to legitimately balance the interests of the First Amendment with the need to protect our kids.\"\nNONE OF THESE POLICIES LEGITIMATELY BALANCE THE INTERESTS OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT WITH ANYTHING. THEY ARE ALL BLATANT FIRST AMENDMENT VIOLATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN PROPAGATED FOR YEARS BY WHINEY RELIGIOUS AND FAMILY GROUPS.\nRead: conservative fuckheads. By conservative, I'm not talking politically, I'm talking people who live in this narrow little bubble that they refuse to look beyond for fear that there might be something different, interesting, or even fun out there. This coming from me, who's pretty fuckin' narrowminded.\nWhen it comes to all this, I go back to George Carlin, who said something along the lines of the following: \"At one point it was decided that TV and radio were the only parts of speech that were not subject to the First Amendment protections of the Constitution. I'd like to repeat that, because it sounds vaguely important.\"\nThe First Amendment is not absolute. I know that. However, we have a yardstick for determining when the First Amendment can be restricted: when speech presents a clear and present danger. Where the fuck is the clear and present danger of using bad language? Oh, yeah, you can make arguments about how it's harming our children, or how it degrades us as a society. THOSE HARDLY QUALIFY AS \"CLEAR.\"\nSorry for all the yelling, but it infuriates me to no end that one of our most sacred principles is continually violated based on the wishes of a religious and conservative base who want to push their boring ideals on EVERYONE.\nThe only reason why I can tolerate some censorship is because it makes it all that much more naughty when someone does use swear words. Censorship helps keep the edge on these words, and their taboo nature makes them more fun and interesting to use. I mean, shit, that's pretty much the main joke here at Fuck everything. The thing is, all these censor-happy fuckheads are not doing this so that we can be amused, they're doing it to push their lame-ass agendas on the rest of us. So no points for them.\nEven in cases of racist or hateful language, I've again gotta go with Carlin. It's not the hateful words you need to worry about, it's the asshole who's saying those words that you've gotta watch out for. The actions coming from dumbasses like that oftentimes DO hurt people, but the words in and of themselves do not hurt anyone.\nYou know, if bad words were such a horrible, destructive force, then our society would have ceased to exist a long time ago. Shit, if these uptight ninnies were correct, this 'blog alone could bring about the fall of Western civilization. But you know what? People are using foul language everywhere everyday, and we're still here. So relax, say what you want, and just ignore what you don't want to hear. I don't see why that's such a big issue, since we're pretty good at ignoring shit already. Just lighten up America, will 'ya?\nIn closing, I think Eric Cartman put it best when he said \"What's the big fuckin' deal, bitch? It doesn't hurt anyone. Fuck fuckitty fuck fuck fuck.\"\nGimme a \"D\"!\nI am Madam Joy Adamu.I was married to Mr. Tony Adamu who worked with haitian embassy in Holland for nine years before he died in on 14th Noverber 2002. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.\nBefore his death, we were both born again Christian. Since his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $32.5Million (Thirty-two Million Five hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) with one security & banking company . Presently, this money is still with the Security Company.\nRecently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months due to illness problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to give this money out to charity. I want a church or an individual that will use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is maintained.\nThe Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I dont have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I dont want my husbands efforts to be used by unbelievers. I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way.\nThis is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I dont need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the presence of my husbands relatives around me always. I dont want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible.\nAs soon as I receive your reply I shall inform,My family Lawyer/Attorney to Secure Affidavit of Claim on your name, to authenticate the security company that you are the beneficiary of the said consignment you will need to go and claim this fund . My Lawyer will also issue you an authorization letter that will prove that you are the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard.\nMy happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. My email address is as below, any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to receive your reply. Remain blessed in the Lord.\nMrs. Joy Adamu\nALTERNATIVE:mrs_joy_adamu@fsmail.net\nIf you want to pull off a scam on me, mentioning Jesus 300 times in a two-minute e-mail is not the way to go about it.\nVia Explaining the Joke, fuck.\nThings have been kinda lonely without comments. Even though it's not even my fault, I'm losing mad guestbook ratings thanks to it. Okay, like one person was mad that I don't have comments and docked me for it, but still.\nAnyway, BlogSpeak is going to get transferred to HaloScan. The guy who runs BlogSpeak appears to have gotten fed up with all the bullshit he's had to deal with in terms of hosting and all that, and I don't blame him. I have no idea as to how long the transition to HaloScan will take, but the nice thing is that once it's done, all of my old comments will be retained. I'd say that I'll keep you posted, but you'll pretty much know when things are back up and running anyway since you'll once again be able to comment.\nIt looks like Central Park Media is going to release one of my favorite series, Narue no Sekai, in one fell swoop on April 6. I can't remember if I already knew the release date, but I'm pretty sure I didn't know they were just going to release it as one set all at once. That's fine by me. I was gonna buy the whole series anway despite having already seen the whole thing. That show is just too goddamn cute, and they deserve some money for it.\nSo I just realized that I'm the biggest idiot in the world. I know, this is not news to most (if not all) of you.\nRemember how a couple of posts back I was complaining about \"All Asian Honey\"? Well, I realized how they got my fucking e-mail and why they're spamming me. That's a fucking Yahoo! group that I signed up for. Actually, it's two different groups. All those goddamn spams are my fault. They're a haunting reminder of back when I didn't have the resources I've got now in finding Asian honeys, in addition to being a haunting reminder of how fucking stupid I am. As if I need more reminders of that fact.\nAlso, since I had signed up for this, these people were targeting spams at something I was looking for. So props to them, even though I'm pretty sure they aren't selling anything.\nNote to self: go and un-sign up for those fucking groups, you retard.\nOkay, I've gotten this hit a couple of times. They might be talking about Love Hina Advance for the GBA or Love Hina Gorgeous for the PS2. I've played some LHA, and it's a dating sim. As for LHG, I believe it is a dating sim as well.\nBefore we go any further, some of you may be asking WTF is a dating sim? Well, dating sims are a popular game genre over in Japan. They're kinda like RPGs, only instead of fighting monsters and garnering things like experience points, you go out hunting chicks trying to garner points with them so that you can (hopefully) score. I know your initial thought is that I'm making this up, but then it hits you that I'm not once you remember how not socially well-balanced the Japanese are.\nAnyway, back on with the main point of this rant. I find no end to the amusement that people are trying to CHEAT at DATING SIMS. What kind of a failure in life are you when you feel the need to cheat at a game designed for people who are already failures in real relationships? I mean, if you want to lie, cheat, and bullshit your way through a fake relationship, you might as well just go out and get yourself a real relationship.\nYou've heard me talk about spam before, and how I'm annoyed by it but not (yet) all that pissed about it. I just now reached a point, though, where I realized it's getting out of hand.\nI was perusing a photobook I bought from J-List, and somewhere around the middle of it there was this little post card type insert. It had a picture of a gaijin doctor on it, and I was like \"what the fuck is this?\" Upon reading what little of it that I could (it's in Japanese), I see that it's an ad for baiagura. Allow me to translate the broken Engrish for you: it was an ad for Viagra.\nYou've got to be fucking kidding me. I can't even drop down $40 for a nice photobook without being harassed over my (apparently) non-functioning dick?\nLook, leave me alone with the Viagra shit, okay? My dick works just fine, alright? It's nothing impressive, but it works like the instructions tell me it should. And I don't need to be getting a three-day hardon or anything like that, either, so leave it alone.\nIf nothing else, I am sick and tired of getting spams that don't have any relevance to me. Another one I get a ton of that started to I filter out is from some fuckers whose e-mails always say \"All Asian Honey [some AV idol's name].\" This pisses me off because I clearly do not have any troubles finding my own (digital) Asian honeys. In fact, I very often already have lots of pictures of [some AV idol's name]. I should start spamming these motherfuckers, telling them that I have several directories worth of [some AV idol's name], and I can probably send THEM some pics they don't already have for $9.95 a month.\nConsidering my utter lack of spending controls or fiscal responsibility (we're not on deficit spending, though), these people could do some real damage if they took four seconds and targeted their e-mails at my consumer whore lifestyle. Let me know about some shit I think I need really really want or was previously unaware of. Yeah, I know, that'd cost money, and it would kill the spam business model, and that's why they're not gonna do it.\nLike I've said before, though, I've just learned to live with it. But can you please leave me alone when I'm with my photobooks? Thanks.\nI'm in the appliance business and need a \"catch phrase\" for my business\nWhy do I get the sense that this guy's business is in trouble?\nFor reasons known most likely only to ETP, I'm obligated to post any stories I come across that are about bird flu.\nI got two Google hits today that represented a new unfortunate trend: one for \"gollum fucking girls\" and another for \"gollum porn.\" Jesus Christ, what the fuck is wrong with you people? Go home.\nIs Paul just covering his ass? Looks like you'll just have to read the book to find out.\nIndeed, Clinton did make Iraq regime change our official policy back in 1998. One thing that might be noteworthy is the fact that that the timeframe of HR 4655 is September/October 1998, which is well after the January 1998 PNAC letter sent to Clinton.\nThe notion that plans were merely a \"continuation\" doesn't hold up to scrutiny because TB (Team Bush) didn't automatically follow suit on Clinton's policies (as if this needs to be said...). Remember in the 2000 election when TB stated its opposition to \"nation-building\"? I can't find a quote, so I could be wrong on this part, but I could swear that Condi Rice even referred to endeavors like those taking place in the Balkans as \"silly little nation-building exercises.\" Of course, when the time came that TB felt as if it had no choice but to become a nation-builder, they were all for it.\nClearly, Clinton's signing of the Iraq Liberation Act was somewhat of a token measure - it said that we think Saddam is a bad guy, and it'd be cool if he were gone. Doesn't mean we were going to do much of anything that would bring about that conclusion. The PNAC guys, on the other hand, were keen on using military force to oust Saddam, so it's not inconceivable that once they came to power, they stepped things up a notch from the Clinton days. In addition to adopting Clintonian policy when they felt they had to, TB also \"inherited\" policy when they simply wanted to. Lucky for them they helped talk congress and Clinton into making some of their ideas into government \"policy\" well before ascending to the throne.\nFinally, even if this was merely a \"continuation,\" that still fails to change the basic argument that TB was planning to remove Saddam from day one. The only remaining question is to just how active they were in these plans: was it merely a contingency, or was planning in an advanced stage and they were simply looking for an excuse (like 9/11) to go forward? Considering that the PNAC had been clamoring for the removal of Saddam long before they came to power, it's kind of hard to believe that they would have given up on that after winning the election, and then magically come back to it post-9/11.\nThis is a quality post\nLet's face facts: no one lands up with a condom in their soup for no reason. That woman musta done something to warrant a jimmy in her clam chowder. Someone put it in the \"chowda house,\" alright!\nDon't get me wrong; I'm not condoning this type of behavior. Reminds me of a Chris Rock rant about how just about anyone will give you an excuse to fuck them up, but that doesn't mean you should actually fuck them up. \"Shit, there's probably a reason to push an old man down the stairs. JUST DON'T DO IT.\"\nI get sick and tired of seeing people suing restaurants and whatnot all the time over truly frivolous claims, but I might be able to cut this woman some slack. I don't know about \"severe emotional distress,\" but I'd certainly be worried about the possibility of having an unwilling indirect kiss with someone's genitals as well as the possibility of disease. Of course, this is coming from me, who comes from a long line of hypochondriacs who worry about EVERYTHING. For instance, my grandmother raised the possibility of leukemia one time when I had developed a slight cough. I'm not kidding.\nAnd, god damn it, now I'm hungry for clam chowder. Clam chowder, or man chowder? Hey-oooo!\nThis blog is kind of sad, but even Band Dork has a girlfriend.\nIt seems like the self-deprecation has stepped up a notch as of late here at Fe, despite being at pretty high levels already. What's up with that? I must be having some real emotional problems.\nI've been thinking about getting one of these for awhile, 'cause it'd be, you know, useful and stuff. Useful for late-night \"coding sessions,\" alright.\nI'm telling you, kids these days have no imagination or sense of originality. Just as well they didn't get a chance to go throught with it - everyone knows that remakes always suck, anyways.\nAbout as Fair & Balanced a link as I'm likely to post.\nSo yeah, suck on that.\nBullshit. This is just mindless liberal ranting coming from the Army War College.\nCouple of spams before bed:\nAmplify Bedroom Ability\nI'm not sticking my dick into any OP AMP circuits, so fuck off.\nWill you get laid tonight?\nQuit asking questions where the plain and obvious answer is \"no.\"\nIt looks like BlogSpeak is currently fucked, so that's where comments went. They'll be back up as soon as I notice BlogSpeak is back up and running.\nPlans to keep tighter tabs on air travelers roll forward.\nThe administration made up its mind to remove Saddam well before 9/11? I could have told you that. In, fact, I HAVE. God fucking damn it, why is it that this isn't a bigger deal by now? How many times do we have to go over this?\nBack in the fucking 90s a bunch of guys decided that Saddam needed to be taken down. A bunch of them got together as part of group called The Project for a New American Century. They even sent out a letter to Clinton which stated their goal of ousting Saddam. A bunch of PNAC's members - Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld - have big government jobs nowadays. It doesn't take much effort (even for me) to realize that the Iraq war was a foregone conclusion as soon as these guys came to power. All they needed was an excuse - and 9/11 gave them just that.\nAm I just stupid to think that this should be a big issue, when in fact it isn't? Am I just being too big of a fucking fundamentalist in wanting people to realize that what was sold as a war of necessity was in fact a war of choice? Is it wrong to be pissed that the administration wanted to do this all along, and they're just exploiting 9/11 in order to get what they want? Am I a fucking moron in that I want accountability for bullshit pretense that is costing us lives, money, and credibility?\nThis pisses me off so god damn much because it's so much bigger than Son of Gulf War. While the war is a huge deal in and of itself, the bullshit the war is bathed in speaks to the bigger issue of an administration that will lie and scheme to make reality of a pre-determined agenda regardless of the costs.\nC'mon, Maureen.

        "raw_content": "When in Kodaikanal (see my earlier post, On the road to Kodaikanal) be sure to take some warm clothing. The first is that it is a hill station, at a height of 7,200 feet. Which means that evenings are almost always guaranteed to be pleasant, if not outright chilly. Winters are colder to be sure. If it rains, and there are lots of that around, it is going to get cold. So there - carry warm clothing. Layers of clothing is the way to go; that way you can remove one layer without freezing your bones.\nAmong the different places to stay in Kodaikanal, the most well-known choice is The Carlton. We however stayed at The Fern Creek, a new addition to Kodaikanal. It is a small, boutique place, with seven swiss tents equipped with all the luxuries you would want in a swiss tent, including a faux-fireplace heater, Tata Sky digital cable, a bathroom that's better than what you find at many 5-star hotels, and so on. The property is not that big, spread over 1.5 acres, but with lots of greenery.\nShot in the evening, this is one of my favorite shots from Kodaikanal. The shoots from the branches make it look like a perfectly haunted tree, right out of a b-grade horror flick. It is also a setting in which the imagination finds a most fertile setting for its ruminations. It is no surprise that authors like Ruskin Bond have chosen to live all their lives in a hill-station, where the grass is green and the scenery pretty (to paraphrase a well-known song...).\nThis is a shot of a Kodai road as seen from inside the window of a car. It was drizzling outside, the windshield had raindrops streaking across the glass, and the wiper was not very effective, which is why the photo has this weird Photoshopped look about it. I chose this photo because I don't have another photo of these roads that looks as green and picturesque. The small cottage just off the road lends a nice touch to the picture.\nPine Forest view. Where countless Tamil, south Indian, and Hindi movies have been shot. Of stars running around these trees singing songs. Or forlorn heroines clutching trees and lamenting the loss of their loved one. Of lust-crazed baddies chasing rain-soaked-sari-clad heroines or starlets running for dear life and liberty and more. Or... you get the picture. The place looks a lot different with a busload or two of tourists attempting the same, well... almost the same.\nEvery time I see misty mountains, I take my camera and try and capture the multi-layered look, silhouetted look, like in the photos below. Lots and lots of mountains all over, behind each other, in the foreground, in the background, near and far - you do need an overcast day to get the best effect, though I did get a similar effect in the middle of the day, in the Zion National Park (Utah).\nWhat works for mountains can also work for trees, high up in the mountains, on a misty, foggy, cloudy day.\nWhat is a visit to a hill-station without sampling the local, supposedly organic honey.\nWhen you are as high as in Kodaikanal (you can be high even on the plains, but that's not the high that I am talking about here), the clouds quite often are at the same level as you are. So for once you can claim to be walking with your head in the clouds and be speaking in a very literal sense.\nThis is a shot that could look even better with an ultra-wide angle lens. And yes, with lots of Photoshop tweaks. I did neither. The Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens that I have does not go beyond 29 or 30mm. This vista would really open up with a wider lens, like the Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras (on a full-frame sensor mind you), or better still, the Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM SLR Lens for EOS Digital SLRs will do just fine even when mounted on a dSLR with an APS-C sensors.\nI shot this and the next few photos from Coaker's Walk (see how this path looked like in 1900). Coaker's Walk is a kilometer pedestrian walk that runs \"along the edge of steep slopes on the southern side of Kodai\". While the views on a clear sunny day are supposed to be stunning, the vista even on a cloudy, misty, drizzly day is no less spectacular.\nOne advantage of going in the winter months, or in the months after the monsoon, is that you have several small streams that form and result in several small waterfalls forming - you don't get to see these in the summer months.\nAnd this is a most magical scene. I could not believe it when I first saw it - clouds moving over the horizon, climbing over these peaks, and then flowing downwards, as if weighed down by the water they were carrying, and after having made it beyond the peak, they lost strength and sank under their own weight.\nOnce upon a time, the tagline, \"Your Only Resort In Kodaikanal\", may have been true, but not any more I think.\nIn a place with such incredible beauty, it is jarring to the senses to come across a building as indescribably ugly as this one. The building is ugly. A huge block of concrete planted amidst this picturesque place. The paint color is uglier. And to top it all, look at the white appendage to the right of the building. All this seems to be the result of a careful exercise intended to remove all traces of beauty and aesthetics from the structure. That they were successful is painfully evident to the eye.\nA milestone. Did I mention I photograph these?\nAmong the must-visit sights in Kodaikanal. It is \"8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from the bus-stand, is a set of three giant rock pillars which stand 122 metres (400 ft) high.[40] Managed by the Tamil Nadu Forest Department, The viewpoint can be crowded but is not commercialized. There is an excellent public garden adjacent to the viewpoint.\" [from Kodaikanal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]\nNow, I must add the following: \"can be crowded\" is a very subjective statement. The fact is that while there is a reasonably large parking lot outside the viewpoint, it can get crowded pretty quickly. Some of the locals were mentioning that peak tourist season, which is pretty much all the summer months, can result in tourist buses and vehicles having to park half a kilometer away from the viewpoint. The viewpoint itself is not very large, and even a dozen people can result in an almost claustrophobic feeling. Each tourist bus can disgorge 50 people, or more. So what do you do? Either go during an off-peak season, like November, or go early in the day, before 9AM. Either way, try and be at this beautiful spot before the throngs of tourists trek their way to this viewpoint.\nRaindrops keep falling on my windshield. And what good are raindrops on your windshield if you don't capture them for posterity.\nLabels: hill station, mileposts, mountains, signposts, waterfall",

The tour covers some of the personal residences used by many of the musicians, it also covers some of their favourite clubs and bars, and venues where they performed memorable gigs. The fans will also be able to look into some of the London houses of one of the most famous playboy musicians of all time, the great Rolling Stones front man Mick Jagger. Touring the famous areas where these music icons used to live is an inspiring and exhilarating experience for any rock fan. Many people have even moved to these areas, only to be closer to their idols, even though most of them don\u2019t live there any more.\nIf you still want to feel the vibe and are considering moving there, you will need to select a good, reliable mover amongst the many moving companies London is a big city and many people are moving about. The city and the surrounding areas are serviced by sound, trustworthy home removals in London industry guide websites will help you choose a reliable mover, do some shopping around for the best price and you\u2019re on easy street.

Some states define this by statute, but New Jersey has no such statute; the right of publicity in New Jersey is a common-law, judge-made right (as it originally was in most states). ...\nLife plus 50 years, the court said, so GM wins (since Einstein died in 1955, and the ad ran in 2009).\nSo Einstein is now in the public domain.

        "raw_content": "Corporate/Commercial / Latin American practice\nby Latin American Practice \u00b7 22 October, 2013\nDespite the uncertainties surrounding the Brazilian economy, there is a very important consensus in the country on the need to invest an extraordinary amount in infrastructure (highways, railroads, ports and airports) that could be as high as \u20ac500 billion under the infrastructure investment program recently launched by the Government.\nTo date, Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econ\u00f4mico e Social (BNDES, Brazil\u2019s official development bank) has been virtually the only institution that has provided long-term finance for infrastructure projects.\nThis begged the question as to whether, given the scale of the planned investments, BNDES was going to be able to carry on with this task on its own.\nAware of the situation in practice (and of the fact that investors interested in executing projects will not be able to bankroll all the projects on their own, either), the Government of Brazil has, according to recent news, struck a deal with the main private banks operating in Brazil (including Ita\u00fa Unibanco, Bradesco, Banco Santander, BTG Pactual, JP Morgan, Bank of America, Safra, Banco do Brasil and Caixa Econ\u00f4mica Federal) so that the banks play a more active role in infrastructure project finance.\nThe terms for funding the various projects are still being defined, although in the case of highways, it has been pointed out that the private banks are already apparently committed to financing up to 70% of the investments through long-term (30-year) credit facilities, with a five-year grace period and an interest rate of TJLP (the long-term rate set by the Conselho Monet\u00e1rio Nacional and which, between July and September 2013, stood at 5%) + 2%.\nBridge loans would also be offered to pay for investments during the project structuring phase and the Government is apparently considering the possibility of removing the impact of the tax on financial transactions (IOF) on infrastructure project finance, something which would also help encourage private banks to participate in such deals.\nAlthough Brazil must undoubtedly continue working towards improving the regulatory and contractual frameworks for long-term investment in the country, the commitments and agreements secured seem to be a step in the right direction.\nYou can find a version of this article in the October issue of Moneda \u00danica magazine.\nTags: Brazilfinanceinfrastructuresinvestment\nNew features introduced by Law 5/2015 on promoting business finance\nFiduciary arrangements act as a spur to business growth in Colombia\nNext story Google\u2019s legal liability for AdWords\nPrevious story Fundamental rights in the workplace: secrecy of communications and right of privacy",

        "title": "LotusOpening News |: Wyoming Serves Notice of Its Reclaim of Sovereignty Under the Tenth Amendment",
        "raw_content": "Wyoming Serves Notice of Its Reclaim of Sovereignty Under the Tenth Amendment\nThis week, Wyoming Governor Dave Freudenthal signed House Joint Resolution 2 (HJ0002), claiming \u201csovereignty on behalf of the State of Wyoming and for its citizens under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government or reserved to the people by the Constitution of the United States.\u201d\nFreudenthal, a long-time Democrat, was previously a US attorney for the Clinton administration, and is currently serving his 2nd term as Governor of Wyoming. He endorsed Barack Obama for president and is commonly referred to as one of the most popular governors in the country.\nIn a memorandum sent to the Wyoming legislature in late January, Freudenthal made clear his position that the federal government has gone beyond the limits of the constitution:\n\u201cFor decades we have shared increased frustration dealing with the federal government and its agencies. What started out as a leak in the erosion of state prerogative and independence has today turned into a flood. From wolf and grizzly bear management, to gun control, to endless regulation and unfunded mandates \u2013 the federal government has become far too powerful and intrusive.\u201d\nOnce brought to a vote this year, the legislature showed little opposition to sending a notice to D.C. that the federal government is overstepping its constitutional authority. The Senate passed it by a vote of 26-4 and the House by a vote of 56-4.\nNOTICE AND DEMAND\nThese non-binding resolutions, often called \u201cstate sovereignty resolutions\u201d do not carry the force of law. Instead, they are intended to be a statement of the legislature of the state. They play an important role, however.\nFor example, if you owned an apartment building and had a tenant not paying rent, you wouldn\u2019t show up with an empty truck to kick them out without first serving notice. That\u2019s how we view these Resolutions \u2013 as serving \u201cnotice and demand\u201d to the Federal Government to \u201ccease and desist any and all activities outside the scope of their constitutionally-delegated powers.\u201d Follow-up, of course, is a must.\nHouse Joint Resolution 2 includes language to this effect:\nThat this resolution serve as notice and demand to the federal government, as our agent, to cease and desist, effective immediately, from enacting mandates that are beyond the scope of these constitutionally delegated powers. The state of Wyoming will not enforce such mandates. [emphasis added]\nWyoming joins 10 other states that have passed similar resolutions since last year; Alaska, Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Tennessee passed theirs in 2009, and Utah, Alabama, and South Carolina have joined Wyoming in passing resolutions this year.\nThese resolutions are part of a growing grassroots movement in state legislatures across the country as a protest to the intrusion of the federal government into state government affairs, and is an essential first step towards efforts to push back, or nullify, unconstitutional federal laws and regulations.\nSupporters of such legislation point to laws passed by other states that take the next step \u2013 and work to nullify specific federal laws seen as unconstitutional by the state. Fourteen states have now defied federal laws on marijuana. Two dozen states have refused to comply with the Bush-era Real ID Act, rendering that 2005 law virtually null and void today. The legislatures in both Virginia and Arizona have passed legislation effectively nullifying a national health care plan within their borders. Three states have already signed a \u201cFirearms Freedom Act\u201d into law, and Governor Freudenthal is expected to sign HB95 to make Wyoming the fourth.\nResolutions, guns, national ID cards, and weed might be just the early stages of a quickly growing movement to nullify other federal laws seen as outside the scope of their constitutionally-delegated powers. In states around the country this year, bills have been proposed to defy or nullify federal laws on health care, use of national guard troops overseas, legal tender laws, cap and trade, and even the process of collecting federal income taxes.\nThe final goal? It\u2019s a long way off \u2013 a federal government that follows the strict limits of the constitution, whether it wants to or not.\nSource (tenthamendmentcenter.com)\nLabels: Firearms Freedom Act, Gov.

        "raw_content": "Mexico's African Descent President Vicente Guererro, Abolished Slavery before the U.S. Civil War\nGeneral Vicente Guererro, 2nd President of Mexico\nA descendent of African slaves, Mexican President VICENTE GUERERRO was a great American president who abolished slavery in Mexico in 1829 - a third of a century before the USA. Herman Bennett's book \u201cAfricans in Colonial Mexico\u201d sounds like one I must put on my reading list. ~Madison Reed\nOnly a few of us Chicanos have read or heard of Vicente Guerrero, Mexico\u2019s second president. He\u2019s best remembered by our neighboring country\u2019s school children for his words during those revolutionary times,\u201dMi patria es primero.\u201d \u201cMy motherland comes first.\u201d\nSince the election of Barack Obama as U.S. President four years ago and his re-election in November, Guerrero is gaining extra recognition in Mexico and the United States as well, on two counts.\nMexico abolished slavery a third of a century before the U.S.\nFirst, he, not Obama, is the first man of African heritage to be elected president of a North American country. Historians write that Guerrero\u2019s paternal grandfather was either a slave himself or descended from African slaves. Second, Guerrero abolished slavery in Mexico in 1829, a third of a century before the United States fought its bloody Civil War and the U.S. Congress passed the 13th Amendment to our Constitution.\nGuerrero, the son of African-Mexican Pedro Guerrero, was assassinated two years after taking office. His mother Guadalupe was born to indigenous Mexican parents. Herman Bennett shares their story in his book \u201cAfricans in Colonial Mexico\u201d. The first African slaves were brought to the New World before the Mayflower showed up in 1620. By the early 1600s the number of Africans dropped off at Mexican ports \u201ccollectively rivaled, if not outnumbered, Spaniards throughout New Spain,\u201d writes Bennett. \u201cAt Veracruz, persons of African descent constituted 63 percent of the non-indigenous population.\u201d\nAs African Americans pay tribute to their forebears this month, we should examine our southern neighbor for the prominent role Africans played there. Their contributions have been flimsily acknowledged and grossly under-appreciated in Mexico, say their historians.\nIndoctrinated through a Eurocentric system of education much like our own, most Mexicans know little or nothing about \u201cthe third root\u201d that blended with their Spanish and indigenous heritages. The closer you look at this historical image, the easier it becomes to realize how African influences significantly enriched it through art, music, language, cuisine and dance.\nLabels: African Americans, Africans in Colonial Mexico, Herman Bennett, Mexico, North America, Slavery, U.S. Civil War, Vicente Guererro\nMexico's African Descent President Vicente Guererr...",

        "raw_content": "I am interested in this book by Norman Lebrecht called The Life and Death of Classical Music. It's misnamed. He's writing about the classical recording industry, which I have read is the fastest growing segment of the recording industry overall, and not about classical music per se. The people who say it's growing are talking about Bocelli, Brightman, Church, Jenkins, those types, as well as crossover records by Pavarotti, Te Kanawa, Domingo, etc. The people who say it's dead limit their numbers to legitimate classical music.\nHe attributes this death to capitalism. Corporations require activities to generate profits, and not very many classical recordings manage that.\nThere is a list of the 25 all time best selling records.\n#1 is Solti's Ring cycle.\n#2, #4, and #20 are the three tenors with a total of 23 million records.\n#9 is a Christmas record with Pavarotti, and #15 is Neapolitan songs by Pavarotti.\n#16 is Kiri's Christmas record.\n#13 is Carmina Burana.\n#8 is Callas in Tosca.\n#25 is Caruso arias.\nOnly 10 out of the 25 contain no singing, and these include three different recordings of the Vivaldi Four Seasons--#3, #11 and #21.\n#14 is Dennis Brain's recording of the Mozart Horn Concertos, the only Mozart in the list.\n#17 is Glenn Gould's early version of the Goldberg Variations, the only Bach in the list.\nOnly two items are in the classical to romantic symphony tradition: Beethoven 9 and Beethoven 5. There are no Mozart, Brahms or even Tchaikovsky symphonies.\nThe most interesting item in the list is #22, the Dawn Upshaw recording of Gorecki's Third Symphony. This is wonderful. I enjoy this recording very much and am encouraged to see it in this list. He thinks it doesn't play in concert halls, but I saw it with the San Francisco Symphony and a Polish singer, and I thought it made an excellent impression. It seems simple, perhaps too simple for the average symphony crowd.\nHe says something interesting. The lists of records reviewed in Gramophone magazine every month include large numbers of vanity pressings.\nCecilia Bartoli is the second ranked diva after Maria Callas, though he gives her only 4 million. She herself says 5 million, and I've heard it go as high as 7 million. [Feb 2010 I read 8 million.] The other high selling singers are Pavarotti, Callas, Domingo and Carreras.\nThe list is filled out by conductors who have an unfair advantage. Virtually everything includes a conductor. I was surprised to see Toscanini only as high as #11. Karajan is #1. These are the people he is interested in, the people discussed in the main text.\nHe talks about his list of 100 great recordings, plus an additional list of great performers completely botching things. The latter includes the Swingle Singers, a group I rather liked.\nHe succeeds in rousing my curiosity to hear these. He has stories. Cecilia's early Rossini album is her only item in his list, and he may be right. Her extreme youth makes her unaware of the difficulty of what she is undertaking, and the result is an awesome casualness of phrasing.\nHe likes Lisa Della Casa rather more than I do, and recommends several of her recordings. Willard White's Porgy is there.\nI could repeat all his stories, but perhaps you should read them yourself. Lebrecht has a weekly column here.\nLabels: About Phrasing, Maria Callas, Review Books, Willard White",

The Mayor still maintains strong support for the Chief.\"\nAccording to the email sent on behalf of Tucker, \"the primary reason behind the chief's decision is his lack of faith in the City Council. The chief stated the council is unable/unwilling to properly staff, fund and equip OPD.\"\nHmm...they're properly funded, and according to Mayor Dellums' address last night, properly staffed, so it seems more likely this was a case of quitting before being fired. Given the list of problems associated with his tenure, he probably decided it was time to get out of Dodge.\nIn any event, I have high hopes that someone else can do a better job.

        "raw_content": "My oncologist and I went over the MRI results today. She ordered it in the first place so it makes sense for her to discuss it with me. Her suggestions and conclusions are different than my family doctor's.... in a good way :)\nShe doesn't think that I have arthritis. Instead, she thinks I have arthralgia, which is arthritis-like pain but that isn't actually arthritis, and is a side-effect of the Femara. In other words, the hip and back pain is a side-effect of the Femara that I've been on for 2 1/2 years. I've had pain in my thumbs, wrists, and ankles for some time now, and it's possible that the longer I'm on Femara, the larger the joints affected by this side effect.\nThe best way to determine whether the pain is arthralgia or arthritis is to go off the Femara completely. But the Femara is working - my tumour markers are down and my scans show no new cancer - and so it doesn't make sense to off the Femara. Sure, I could go on another hormonal treatment.... but why stop the one that works *before* it stops working? And what if the next treatment didn't work? I'm not willing to take a chance on letting my cancer spread further right now, so we're not going to stop the Femara.\nNot that it matters much whether it's arthralgia or arthritis... my oncologist said that they treat arthralgia as though it were arthritis. The kicker is that there aren't really any modern medical treatments for it. However, my oncologist doesn't want me to live in pain and wants us to think outside the box on treating the pain by exploring non-modern/non-Western treatments like acupuncture, massage, hypnosis, Lakota or glycosamine/chondroitin, and possibly physiotherapy.\nAt this point, I just want this pain to go away. Having to live with constant pain is no way to live. Therefore, I'm willing to try things to get rid of it that I might not have considered before. To start, I think I'm going to begin taking Lakota or glycosamine/chondroitin. I'll have a chat with my pharmacist tomorrow about these remedies to figure out which might work better for me and to also be sure that the remedy won't interfere with my current medications.\nNext, I'm going to see about getting some acupuncture done. My oncologist said that people have had very good results with it as long as the practitioner is experienced. She said that it is very important that I find someone who has years of experience not just in practicing acupuncture, but also in treating this kind of pain. Otherwise it might hurt or it won't give the right kind of benefit for me.\nAll I have to do to make this second step happen is to find someone who can do it. Normally my oncologist would just refer me to someone but she doesn't know anyone in the area who's got enough experience. I get to be the guinea pig here :) . I'll check with the cancer support center (Hopespring) where I go for my meditation classes; I'm hoping that they'll be able to refer me to someone in the area (or even tell me who might not be suitable). If that doesn't work I'll let my fingers do the walking on the internet and phone. If my experience with the person and treatment is positive, then my oncologist might refer other people to that practitioner.\nIn addition to these two new approaches, I'm still going to try and lose some weight and I do still want to do some aqua-fit to get some exercise. Hopefully, between all of these measures, the pain will go away. Cross your fingers!\nOh - and if you're interested in the actual scan results, the MRI showed that I have some slight disk bulging issues at my L4-L5 vertebrae. The bone scan also showed, for the first time, that I have some bone degeneration at L4-L5 to go along with the known degeneration at L5-S1. I was surprised at this; I didn't think that vertebrae degeneration would start marching up my spine like this. Weird.\nThe bone scan also showed increased takeup in my knuckles, wrists, and ankles which corresponds to the areas where I already had joint pain. I'm sure that increased takeup will show up in my hips one of these days, even though nothing showed up this time. The bone scan also showed increased takeup in my left knee, which is the one I think I broke ages ago. Interestingly, this is the first time that the report has mentioned the left knee since... well, since the very first bone scan I've ever had. I re-started Pamidronate before the scan and maybe it's healing these areas, causing the increased uptake.\nAnd that's it! I'm feeling WAY more positive today. Not only might I not be in pain forever, but there might be things I can do NOW to lessen the pain. That's the kind of news I love! I also have to say that I'm really, really happy with my oncologist's approach to this whole thing. She was positive and determined to help me find a way to deal with the pain, which is a helluva lot more than my family doctor gave me yesterday. Yesterday, I was left with the prospect of being in this agonizing pain forever with no hope of it lessening. Today, I'm hopeful that there might be a way out from the pain. I know that nothing is guaranteed, but I have hope. I love my oncologist - she's AWESOME!\nLabels: cancer, doctors appointments, pain, side effects, test results, treatment, tumour markers\nwow - better news than yesterday... but based on the same info, oddly. makes me think that doctoring is an art as well as a science in some ways.\ni hope these alternative treatments work for you. it sucks to have the pain on top of the cancer. i'm glad the pain isn't caused by the cancer, though.",

        "raw_content": "Luxury Farm-to-Table Experiences\nThe wildly popular social movement \u201cfarm-to-table\u201d encourages sourcing food locally, so that consumers know exactly where their food came from. Knowing the origin of your food encourages the freshest dining, and that can be found in these three dining options. These farm-to-table experiences have taken sustainability to a luxury level.\nOriginally staging a handful of events in 1999, luxury farm-to-table dinner service \u201cOutstanding in the Field\u201d today stages 100+ multi-course feasts every year, from coast to coast across North America to all around the world.\nFounded in 1999 by artist and chef Jim Denevan, \u201cOutstanding in the Field\u201d originally was a radical idea to switch up the traditional convention of dinner. Rather than sourcing ingredients and bringing them to the restaurant, Denevan\u2019s vision was to create a restaurant at the source, where guests would enjoy a communal meal and the farmer\u2019s story could be told and celebrated. A single long table is set at an extraordinary site, and guests dine outdoors on the food grown at the source.\n\u201cOur mission is to get folks out to the places where the food comes from and honor the people whose good work brings nourishment to the table,\u201d says chef and artist Jim Denevan. \u201cOur roving restaurant without walls may be located wherever good food comes from. There are no boundaries.\u201d\n\u201cOutstanding in the Field\u2019s\u201d culinary caravan has visited all 50 U.S states and 15 countries around the globe. The #TabletoFarm tour season runs May through November, with a smaller winter tour in January/February to warm-weather spots like Florida, Hawaii and Mexico.\nStudio in Montage Laguna Beach, California\nOverlooking the Pacific Ocean in Laguna Beach, Studio is Montage Laguna Beach\u2019s five-star free-standing fine dining restaurant. Studio prides itself on serving innovative modern cuisine. While Studio is known for its tasting menus and incredible service, it is also a Wine Spectator Grand Award winner, with approximately 2,500 wine selections and 30,000 bottles in inventory.\nStudio\u2019s showstopper is the 1,000-square-foot raised bed garden, which provides many of the ingredients for the restaurant\u2019s signature cuisine. The garden is currently growing cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, Swiss chard, Valencia oranges, artichokes and edible flowers, to name a few. The culinary team at Studio uses the garden\u2019s bounty in everyday cooking, especially in the restaurant\u2019s gourmet vegetarian tasting menu, and also for fresh cocktail garnishes throughout Montage. The garden can seat up to 50 guests.\nFlora\u2019s Field Kitchen, Mexico\nFlora Farms is a 25-acre organic working farm at the foot of the Sierra de la Laguna Mountains in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico, and is home to Flora\u2019s Field Kitchen, a field-to-table restaurant set amongst idyllic organic fields and gardens.\nThe original Flora Restaurant was in San Jose del Cabo, but after 5 years in town, the owner decided she would rather bring the restaurant to the farm instead of the other way around. Flora\u2019s Field Kitchen prides itself on serving only what it has grown, even nixing beef from the menu, as it is not sustainable in the Baja region.\nFlora\u2019s has an onsite bakery firing up artisan breads, a butcher-shop, a brewery, and a wood-fired oven that serves up 15 types of Neapolitan-style pizza.. The restaurant also offers cooking classes several days a week.\nFlora Farm is available for private gatherings and special occasions, with customizable event menus.\nAgricola Fore Porta, Italy\nOnly accessible on foot, this organic agriturismo, or farm resort, only uses seasonal, organic products, with the famous Amalfi lemons at the forefront of the fresh cuisine.\nFor Italians, the idea of combining agriculture with tourism is an old tradition, and this agriturismo started generations ago, when the farm was an old papermill. Agricola Fore Porta today offers a daily menu, which includes traditional courses prepared only with seasonal products picked freshly every morning, and Mediterranean cooking lessons, where participants will learn how to prepare local recipes.\nPreviousA New Dawn in Lighting Design\nNextWhat\u2019s On Tap for Kitchens?",

        "raw_content": "Few things can top the taste of homemade Fettuccine Alfredo, made with fresh noodles. It is one of my family's staple meals. But we eat all kinds of fresh pasta here, from spaghetti and meatballs, to lasagna, so pasta is something we make frequently.\nWhy make pasta when you can just buy it?\nGood question. It takes more time than picking up a box of it at the grocery store, doesn't it? My reasons include:\n1. Fresh pasta tastes better.\n2. We like thick noodles. Thick and chewy, slathered in a sauce of some kind.\n3. We can use healthier flours (whole grain, sprouted, freshly ground) and avoid unhealthy additives (synthetic vitamins, like niacin, iron, and folic acid).\n4. We just like making our own stuff.\nWhatever your reasons are, I'm sure that you will find pasta easy enough to make.\nHomemade Window Cleaner and Vintage Cookbooks\nThere are three shelves in my kitchen overflowing with cookbooks. Many of these cookbooks are what I call \"old church cookbooks.\" They are generally found at garage sales and thrift stores, and most of them that I find are from the 1950s-1960s (though I have many from as early as the 1920s, and plenty from the 70s and 80s).\nThese cookbooks are real gems, and whenever I see one, I make sure to snatch it up. Religion has nothing to do with it, so it doesn't matter your faith or lack of; these cookbooks made by the church's \"Recipe Committees\" are full of vintage wonderfulness. They are a real snapshot of American housewives in the mid-century 1900s. Often times, the previous owner of the cookbook has made notes in it, or has saved other recipes clipped from magazines and newspapers and tucked them inside (as seen in the black cookbook above). There are always a few surprises to be found.",

        "raw_content": "The Importance of Mother\u2019s tongue: CBSE online study material\nMother tongue \u2013 Our very first language; It is the language with which a person has grown up speaking from early childhood. Every language is unique and represents a special culture. It is the language that the child learns almost without any conscious effort on his part. The language is certainly one of the most precious assets in our lives. Since it is the very first language that a child is exposed to, a child\u2019s psychological and personality development depends on it. The expression of first feeling, happiness, fears, and first words are in the mother tongue. It plays a vital role in framing our thinking, emotions and spiritual world, because the most important stage of our life, childhood, is spent in its imprints.\nIn the field of education, our country deals with approximately 37 boards that catering to the regional languages to suit the local populace. Students have the option of writing the examinations in their respective mother tongues. The largest board still remains CBSE though, conducting examinations in English, since the English language is seen to be more progressive and aids in students being accepted better in their future endeavours. It is a small wonder therefore that supplementary materials like CBSE online study material are found in abundance for this board.\nMother tongue proves to be an effortless and efficient way of expressing. Hence, it is very powerful in grooming our social skills like mutual communication and exchange of ideas. Reading, expressing oneself, acquisition of knowledge and reasoning are the instruments for bringing about intellectual development; and all of these are possible only through language, or the mother tongue of the child. Moreover research has shown that many skills acquired in the first language can be transferred to the second language. So, if the child has developed good reading skills in his first language, he/she is likely to be able to apply these skills in the other language too. Mother tongue plays a tremendously useful role in the education of a child. Education-wise, students who learn a second language and continue to develop their native language would have chances of higher academic achievement in later years. Children who come to school with a solid foundation in their mother tongue develop stronger literacy abilities in the school language. It is through language, and especially through the mother tongue, that individuals integrate themselves into a social organisation. Besides intellectual development it lays the base for a sound emotional development of the individual. A child's mother tongue would help the child to value his or her culture and heritage, which contributes to positive self-concept. It gives a sense of belonging to one. Thus, one should be proud of our Mother tongue and preserve it with care.",

        "raw_content": "Future of Education And Technology\nFuture is uncertain, still predictable. Worldwide, education sector is undergoing reformation. And, India is not lagging behind. Implementation of various policies in the education front at a fast pace will ensure a change in the education scenario of the country. Beginning with the primary education system, various steps are being carried out by the government to universalize the elementary education in the country. Non- governmental organizations have also come forward to join the revolution. Significant changes have taken place at the higher education level system. Scientific and technological developments have been internationally acclaimed. Various programmes and schemes like \u2018Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao\u2019 is an initiative to include all sections of the population into Indian Education system.\nFurther in order to boost the education system, government is promulgating new system of e-teaching and smart classes in schools. New techniques of teaching include rhyme base, ppt base and practical\u2019s and so on. In the early days, e-learning received a bad press as they mistook it as removing that human element which many learners need. But, as time progressed and technology evolved students have started embracing smart classes. For a sect of students, other academic contents cannot replace CBSE curriculum. Online cbse study material class 8 created by subject matter experts can be availed at any hour of the time on the internet. One can learn at the speed of your need.\nGlobally, education is heavily determined by university academics. It places undue emphasis on far less interest of students, especially to low achievers. It is elitist to insist that every high school graduate struggle with the intricacies of Shakespeare when s/he can\u2019t decipher, try to make sense of 3-D geometrical models or even balancing a chemical equation when they lack knowledge or inspiration to live healthily. The curriculum must be reinvented to focus on what is most important. That includes practical reading, critical and scientific thinking, mathematical reasoning, citizenship, financial literacy, conflict resolution skills, physical and mental health.\nAfter all, the whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows. Today, in the world of technology, we introduced e learning. We invent e-learning module to save time and give liberty to the student to learn anytime from anywhere. e- Learning process help a lot to the student to learn things, we agree that there's a lot of potential for technological supplementation of the education process. But, still, it does not full fill the position and necessity of human teachers. Like, there is a number of e-learning platform that provides free cbse study material for class 9th but they machine does not explain each and every fact that a human teacher would explain to students.",

DeMille award at the Golden Globes last night. Once again, she graced us with her enchanting words and powerful stories:\n\u201cThank you, Reese. In 1964, I was a little girl sitting on the linoleum floor of my mother\u2019s house in Milwaukee watching Anne Bancroft present the Oscar for best actor at the 36th Academy Awards. She opened the envelope and said five words that literally made history:\u201d The winner is Sidney Poitier.\u201d Up to the stage came the most elegant man I ever remembered. His tie was white, his skin was black\u2014and he was being celebrated. I\u2019d never seen a black man being celebrated like that. I tried many, many times to explain what a moment like that means to a little girl, a kid watching from the cheap seats as my mom came through the door bone tired from cleaning other people\u2019s houses. But all I can do is quote and say that the explanation in Sidney\u2019s performance in Lilies of the Field: \u201cAmen, amen, amen, amen.\u201d\nIn 1982, Sidney received the Cecil B. DeMille award right here at the Golden Globes and it is not lost on me that at this moment, there are some little girls watching as I become the first black woman to be given this same award. It is an honor\u2014it is an honor and it is a privilege to share the evening with all of them and also with the incredible men and women who have inspired me, who challenged me, who sustained me and made my journey to this stage possible. Dennis Swanson who took a chance on me for A.M. Chicago. Saw me on the show and said to Steven Spielberg, she\u2019s Sophia in \u2018The Color Purple.\u2019 Gayle who\u2019s been a friend and Stedman who\u2019s been my rock.\nI want to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. We know the press is under siege these days. We also know it\u2019s the insatiable dedication to uncovering the absolute truth that keeps us from turning a blind eye to corruption and to injustice. To\u2014to tyrants and victims, and secrets and lies. I want to say that I value the press more than ever before as we try to navigate these complicated times, which brings me to this: what I know for sure is that speaking your truth is the most powerful tool we all have. And I\u2019m especially proud and inspired by all the women who have felt strong enough and empowered enough to speak up and share their personal stories. Each of us in this room are celebrated because of the stories that we tell, and this year we became the story.\nBut it\u2019s not just a story affecting the entertainment industry. It\u2019s one that transcends any culture, geography, race, religion, politics, or workplace. So I want tonight to express gratitude to all the women who have endured years of abuse and assault because they, like my mother, had children to feed and bills to pay and dreams to pursue. They\u2019re the women whose names we\u2019ll never know. They are domestic workers and farm workers. They are working in factories and they work in restaurants and they\u2019re in academia, engineering, medicine, and science. They\u2019re part of the world of tech and politics and business. They\u2019re our athletes in the Olympics and they\u2019re our soldiers in the military.\nAnd there\u2019s someone else, Recy Taylor, a name I know and I think you should know, too. In 1944, Recy Taylor was a young wife and mother walking home from a church service she\u2019d attended in Abbeville, Alabama, when she was abducted by six armed white men, raped, and left blindfolded by the side of the road coming home from church. They threatened to kill her if she ever told anyone, but her story was reported to the NAACP where a young worker by the name of Rosa Parks became the lead investigator on her case and together they sought justice. But justice wasn\u2019t an option in the era of Jim Crow. The men who tried to destroy her were never persecuted. Recy Taylor died ten days ago, just shy of her 98th birthday. She lived as we all have lived, too many years in a culture broken by brutally powerful men. For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dare speak the truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. Their time is up.\nTheir time is up. And I just hope\u2014I just hope that Recy Taylor died knowing that her truth, like the truth of so many other women who were tormented in those years, and even now tormented, goes marching on. It was somewhere in Rosa Parks\u2019 heart almost 11 years later, when she made the decision to stay seated on that bus in Montgomery, and it\u2019s here with every woman who chooses to say, \u201cMe too.\u201d And every man\u2014every man who chooses to listen.\nIn my career, what I\u2019ve always tried my best to do, whether on television or through film, is to say something about how men and women really behave. To say how we experience shame, how we love and how we rage, how we fail, how we retreat, persevere, and how we overcome. I\u2019ve interviewed and portrayed people who\u2019ve withstood some of the ugliest things life can throw at you, but the one quality all of them seem to share is an ability to maintain hope for a brighter morning, even during our darkest nights. So I want all the girls watching here, now, to know that a new day is on the horizon! And when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say \u2018Me too\u2019 again.\u201d\nLook forward to her work in A Wrinkle in Time.\ngolden globesintersectionalityme toooprahoprah winfreyrecy taylorspeech",

        "raw_content": "new collection alert: Arthur Freedman Video Collection\nWe are pleased to announce one of our more recent acquisitions, the Arthur Freedman video collection! A familiar figure in the local Boston area rock scene for nearly four decades, Artie Freedman recorded over two thousand hours of rock performances on VHS, Hi8, 8mm video, and Mini DV from the late 1970s through the early 2000s.\nThe HFA\u2019s portion of the collection is searchable though our finding aid: Arthur Freedman Collection, ca. 1985-2011 : Guide\nFreedman pictured with a portion of his collection, photo by Patricia Ann Pelland\nInspired by the music he heard from the neighbor\u2019s band in his hometown of Newton, Massachuetts, Arthur attended concerts on the Common, the Esplanade and venues like the Music Hall (now the Wang Center), the Modern Theater and the Orpheum. When Arthur reached 18, he began to explore nightclubs like Cantone\u2019s, the Club, the Rathskeller, Jonathan Swift\u2019s, Jack\u2019s and many others. That band in his neighborhood, the Rockin\u2019 Ramrods, would eventually back up the Rolling Stones on the Canadian leg of their first North American tour, and Freedman would eventually go on to not only attentively listen to many more bands but record a whole era of local culture.\nWatching the bands in the early days of the local punk rock movement, he realized that each show was unique: he witnessed set, song and personnel changes, different arrangements for some songs and, tragically, untimely deaths of band members. Many of these independent, unsigned bands would never make it into the recording studio, and those who did may not record the songs he liked or sequence the tracks on the record like a live set. Believing that the energy and exuberance of a live performance could never be reproduced within the controlled perfection based recording studio, Arthur quickly realized the critical need of chronicling the edgy and incredibly creative era of punk music within the scene he loved. In the late 1970s, he bought a cassette deck with microphone inputs and two microphones and started to record all of the shows he attended. In 1984, Freedman bought a video camera. He was one of the only people recording or filming in the nightclubs of Boston, Cambridge and Somerville \u2013 as well as the occasional out-of-town venue. Often sighted in front of the stage, video camera in hand, he documented countless rock acts for posterity, including many bands and venues that no longer exist. Either with tape decks and microphones, video cameras or video cameras attached to video recorders, Freedman would often go from club to club recording multiple bands in one evening. He became a familiar figure in the local Boston area rock scene for nearly four decades.\nDedicated to the music and his craft, Freedman wanted the tapes to be always available to the bands he recorded. However, magnetic media is subject to degradation over time. He alerted the public to the massive nature of this preservation proposal through multiple articles in newspapers; thus, Harvard University became aware of a once in a lifetime opportunity to collaborate on an exclusive project and approached Freedman with a feasible way to preserve and make available the life\u2019s work of a creative visionary.\nFreedman maintained his archive of thousands of videotapes at his home until he donated his collection to Harvard in 2012. His audio recordings of local rock, dating back to the late 1970s, now reside at Harvard\u2019s Loeb Music Library. The Arthur Freedman Collection at the Harvard Film Archive consists of over two thousand hours of recorded rock performances, recorded on 1185 VHS, Hi8, 8mm video, and Mini DV tapes. There are associated materials including fliers and set lists for some of the tapes. Both Arthur Freedman and Harvard University welcome the help of legitimate band members to provide set lists, personnel listings, associated artworks, posters, records, tapes, cds, websites, Facebook pages and as much information about the bands contained in this collection as possible. By doing so, they would be able to access this collection while enriching its depth.\nThe audio and video recordings will be digitized at Harvard for access and posterity.\nThis entry was posted in Arthur Freedman Collection, collection update, new collections on November 12, 2013 by conservator2.\n\u2190 collections update: Warren Sonbert Two Sisters: The Long Evolution of a Short Film \u2192",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Live Well / Health, Life and Mom\nHealth, midlife and mom. That\u2019s the theme of today\u2019s post as we celebrate Mother\u2019s Day this weekend. I\u2019m feeling lucky in midlife because this is the time when many of my friends have started or have already lost their mothers, but mine is still alive and kicking. Like so many women in my mom\u2019s generation, she had me fairly early in life. So, she\u2019s only 20 years my senior. But, we are both getting up there in years.\nThis weekend as I reflect fondly over my mom\u2019s recent weeklong visit from Iowa, I started thinking about how our general health has so closely mirrored each other as we have aged. It\u2019s been helpful to be able to ask her questions about her health in her younger years. That has not always been the case as she once tended to be intensely private with everyone about any health issues she may have faced, not just myself. I think that is also a generational thing. She has come to realize that information is power when it comes to health.\nSo, even though it might be a bit of a downer on Mother\u2019s Day to discuss health and motility\u2014think about having a conversation at some point before it\u2019s too late. And, don\u2019t limit it to just your mom\u2019s health. Tap her brain for a family history. We all know in this day and age that knowing family health history such can save a life. For example, my mom had uterine cancer a few years ago. Thankfully, it was caught early and she is fine now. But, that information is something I need to know about and understand the symptoms as I plod through perimenopause.\nA couple of years ago, CBS News Medical Correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton shared some important information and questions that can serve as a wonderful discussion guide between you and your mother:\nWhile not all breast cancer patients have a family history of the disease, having a mother, sister, or daughter with breast cancer about doubles a woman\u2019s risk. Ovarian cancer can also run in families \u2014 grandmothers, mothers, sisters. Talk to your paternal grandmother too because increased risks for ovarian cancer can also come from your father\u2019s side.\nYou should be aware of cancer and in past generations. A lot of moms didn\u2019t talk about cancers like breast cancer, uterine cancer, they was taboo. If your mom had a cancer, any type, ask specifics. What type, how was it treated? When was it diagnosed?\nHeart disease is the No. 1 killer of women. Stroke is the No. 4 killer of women. If high blood pressure \u2014 a risk factor \u2014 runs in the family, it\u2019s important for women to take note.\nGestational diabetes, which develops when you\u2019re pregnant, affects about seven percent of all U.S. pregnancies. Gestational diabetes risks are heightened when there is a family history of diabetes, especially on their mother\u2019s side. Women who have had gestational diabetes pass on obesity and Type 2 diabetes risk to their children.\nHow Difficult was Your Pregnancy?\nLearn if your mother had any experience with miscarriages, a family history of twins or preeclampsia.\nIf your mother had preeclampsia \u2014 swelling and high blood pressure accompanied with a high level of protein in the urine during pregnancy \u2014 it could lead to premature births. If your mom or even sister has it, it could increase your risk.\nDid she have morning sickness? A new study published by the Norwegian Institute of Public Health in Oslo says that daughters of women who suffered from severe morning sickness were three times more likely to have it.\nWhen Did You Start Getting Hot Flashes?\nThe average age of when a woman enters menopause is 51, but the range is between 45 and 55. But, if your mom or sister went through premature or early menopause, you could have higher chances of earlier menopause. How old was she and how severe were her hot flashes?\nHow Much Has Your Height Changed?\nOsteoporosis \u2014 weak and brittle bones \u2014 is a big health topic for women. Women are four times more likely to get it than men. If your mother or relative has osteoporosis, you\u2019re at higher risk, especially if you have a family history of fractures\nLast, but not least\u2014make sure YOU write everything down if you have your own children and put it in a safe place in case something happens to you. I\u2019ve started a Google spreadsheet and also have a printed copy of the list with my important papers because Lord help anyone if I die and they have to figure out which password to use.\nWith that\u2026I hope you have a Happy and Healthy Mother\u2019s Day 2015!\nPS \u2013 In case you are wondering, the photo is of my mom and son taken a couple of weeks ago. \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "Guest Review: The Duke of Lies by Darcy Burke\nThe Duke of Lies (The Untouchables #9) by Darcy Burke\nSeries: The Untouchables #9\nAlso in this series: The Forbidden Duke\nVerity Beaumont has suffered domineering men most of her life, first with her father and then with her husband. Free from both men, she has finally found peace. Even meeting a kind and hard-working gentleman who just might be the perfect father her young son so desperately needs. But as she dares look to the future, her carefully ordered world is shattered when her dead husband returns.\nImprisoned in America during the war, Rufus Beaumont, Duke of Blackburn, wants nothing more than to return to his native England. He longs for comfort and safety away from the horrors of battle, only the life he returns to is not the life he left. He must convince his wife that their marriage is worth fighting for, that he\u2019s not the man he was. But when the truth about what happened to him leaks out, he must prove that not everything about him, especially his love for her, is a lie.\nIt\u2019s been six and a half years since the Rufus Beaumont, the Duke of Blackburn disappeared. Verity Beaumont, the Duchess of Blackburn, is incredibly grateful that the man has been absent in her life. While Rufus courted Verity he was all that was kind and caring. The minute they were married she found that it was all a fa\u00e7ade. He was a mean, vicious, cruel man and she was happy to have him gone. He left just three months after they married to go to London and then was never heard from again. Verity had gotten pregnant during those three months but the duke never knew of the boy, Beau.\nVerity is moving on with her life and taking charge when suddenly Rufus reappears. Verity is terrified but when she talks to the duke he seems like a completely different person. He\u2019s kind, polite, gracious \u2013 and he looks different than before \u2013 bigger. Rufus says that it\u2019s because he gained muscle on the ship that he was conscripted to, but that doesn\u2019t explain why he\u2019s taller and his feet grew. Verity feels attraction for this man but fears that his kindness will disappear, just as it did before. She suspects that this isn\u2019t really Rufus but does she care? If this man who looks so much like Rufus wants to be the duke and take care of her family she\u2019s more than happy to have him.\nChristopher \u201cKit\u201d Powell is the bastard son of the previous duke, Rufus\u2019s uncle. He was once at Blackburn so he knew enough about it to play it off like he was the duke. He didn\u2019t plan on pretending to be the duke but when he took a room at the local inn they thought he was Blackburn so he decided to give it a go. He was actually a privateer whose ship had burned. He was planning on heading to Blackburn to get money from his father but then found out he was dead. After that revelation he decided to just steal something so that he could buy another ship. Of course he didn\u2019t expect to fall in love with Verity or her son Beau so he\u2019s stuck. What does he do? Move on with his plan to buy a new ship and disappear or stay and pretend to be the duke for the rest of his life?\nThis book nine in The Untouchables series and though I had only read book one in the series a couple of years ago, I didn\u2019t need to read the other seven books to really enjoy this one. There is a couple of characters from previous books (I\u2019m not sure which books) that are in this story, but their inclusion in the book was minor. This story was easily read as a standalone.\nRufus was the bastard husband and I have to say that I so wanted this new, friendly and kind man to be him \u2013 changed. I knew in my heart though that it couldn\u2019t be him because anyone that cruel wouldn\u2019t change that much, no matter what. If he actually had been conscripted he probably would have come out meaner than before, not nicer. So it\u2019s Kit that is the duke and I loved him. He was just such a good man! He loved learning new things, helping people, playing with Beau\u2026the list is endless. I was very happy that Kit and Verity fell in love and that she didn\u2019t give a rat\u2019s ass that he was illegitimate. It was completely a non-issue and I loved that she didn\u2019t care at all.\nVerity had lived a hard life. Supposedly her father was cruel as well but the book doesn\u2019t really get into that \u2013 we\u2019re just told. He does come on page, however, and he was an ass \u2013 I can verify. Lol After having to deal with Rufus when they married I was extremely happy that she found Kit. She deserved happiness and love and I was thrilled when she received it.\nThe suspense portion of the story, I thought, was well done. I liked how Burke unfolded the story little by little, giving us only bits to keep us interested and reading further. I really enjoyed reading this story and recommend it.\nThe Untouchables Series\nGuest Review: The Forbidden Duke by Darc\nTagged: 4.0 Reviews, Darcy Burke, Guest Reviews, Historical, Reviews, Self-Published, The Untouchables, Tracy's Reviews",

It is also highly useful to see an example which is why you will find a sample essay below:\nAnalytical Essay Sample: The Layout of Primary Accounting Statements Including Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Sheets: Why They Are Necessary\nFinancial statements are the key to business. Every business entity has to deal with financial reports which are the core area to notice. Annual accounts are the most common ones. However, meeting of shareholders takes place quarterly, which decides about the financial statements. Management has to set themselves a pattern according to which they should prepare financial statements. Yearly accounts are suited to most of the companies. However, this is not a set rule. There is an option of preparing quarterly of semi-annually accounts as well. A company has to have a formula which they should apply regarding preparation of financial accounts. Accounting standards are without a doubt a key to look into. SECP has provided many guidelines that must be adhered to. Certain laws and provisions must also be provided for while preparing financial reports.\nSome of the key financial statements covered include the balance sheet, the income statement, the statement of retained earnings and the statement of cash flows. There are two types of layout for a balance sheet. A vertical as well as horizontal layout can be considered. Both approaches to the layout are acceptable, and a company can go for one according to their conventional mode of work. The income statement shows the income generated in the period plus the expenses that were paid for. It gives an exact view of the income present with the company or the entity at the end of the period. Accrual basis of accounting has to be applied in which income is to be recognized in income statement when it is received, and expenses are accounted for when they are incurred, not when they are actually paid for. This way a comprehensive income and expenditure statement are prepared. Net profit or loss is shown at the end. If income were greater than expenses, then there would be a net profit, and if expenses were bigger, then there would be a net loss to be recognized in the income statement.\nThere are two methods of preparation of income statement being used alternatively. Single-step and multi-step income statements are the two options. You can follow any one of the mentioned approaches for the preparation of the income statement. Income statement relates to a certain period of activity.\nRetained earnings are affected by profits with the company. Any payments from the profits such as dividends would decrease the balance of retained earnings, and vice versa. Net loss of the company will have a negative impact on retained earnings and profits and will add to the account of retained earnings. At the end, the final figure is calculated by means of addition and deletion of amounts. The statement of retained earnings provide for changes in the retained earnings from period to period. Consolidated financial statements are also prepared which depicts the events that are to occur over a period of time in the future. The statement of shareholder\u2019s equity is another name for the statement of retained earnings. This statement helps the investors and creditors to conclude about the financial position of the entity.\nA balance sheet as previously discussed also revolves around the accounting equation. Assets are always equal to liabilities+ owner\u2019s equity. The recognition of the asset or a liability in the financial statements is vital. Fair value recognition is the best method to present a true and fair view of the financial transactions.\nThe statement of cash flows provides an insight about the inflows and outflows of the business. Such inflow or outflow is in monetary value and you can have an idea of what amount of cash has gone out of business, and how much cash business has received for a given period. There are three sections of the statements of cash flows, and you must prepare a statement of cash flow accordingly. 1) operating activities, 2) investing activities and 3) financing activities. The order should be the same as mentioned. You can come across net cash received or paid out on operating, investing and financing activities. At the end, you can sum up all three activities to come up with total cash paid in or out for the given period. Non-cash items are accounted for to come to a genuine and realistic amount of cash in or out for a given period. For example, dividends are cash paid out, but these are not expenses to the business. Such accounting is done in case of the statement of cash flows to come across real cash in or out for the period.\nAtkinson, Anthony A. Management Accounting.

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Notes from FSU\u2019s 16th Graduate Student Symposium\nTheorizing Religion in the Age of Trump Series: Matthew Baldwin \u2192\nThe Upside Down World: Shadows of Cold War Ghosts in Stranger Things\nby Ting Guo\nThis post originally appeared on the LA Review of Books.\nWith Stranger Things, Netflix produced an original science fiction drama that went viral. But for me, it is also offered up a political drama that illuminated elements of our persistently divided world \u2014 and how we might save ourselves from it. Here, in what is admittedly more a series of fragmented reflections than a full account of the series and all of the ways it can be linked to the Cold War and its aftermath, are my thoughts, while watching it in Indiana, reflecting on the present moment and on how different my 1980s was from that shown in the movie and that remembered by American viewers of the same show.\nIn September 2016, Stranger Things was the thing in the college town in Indiana where I currently reside as a nonresident alien (term c/o US border immigration law, no irony intended). Indiana is also where the show is set. Fictional Hawkins, Indiana, seems to be a quintessential heartland locale, a \u201cnormal\u201d American setting par excellence.\nThe show\u2019s intro sequence pays homage to the \u201980s with synth music typography, and other stylistic elements that evoke the era\u2019s iconic filmmakers. They make us think of John Carpenter (of Halloween fame), Steven Spielberg, and Rob Reiner (in his Stand by Me phase).\nIn a series of flashbacks, the viewer sees impeccably suited government agents at a neighboring DOE facility conducting sinister experiments on a young girl known only as \u201cEleven\u201d (affectionately referred to by her friends as \u201cEl\u201d). This girl possesses the capacity for telekinesis and can reach a parallel world of alternative reality known as the \u201cupside-down.\u201d She escapes the laboratory and befriends a group of schoolboys, helping find their friend Will Byers who has been kidnapped by a monster from the upside-down.\nThe kids are the heroes of the show, despite the fact they are often bullied by the \u201ccool kids.\u201d They are kind, caring, loyal to their friends, dedicated to their mission and resourceful in moments of crisis. They represent the humanistic resistance that challenges and mocks scientific and technologically rooted alienation of a sort that grew pronounced in the \u201970s and \u201980s.\nJust like the \u201cother side,\u201d the \u201980s was a deeply fragmented world\nMy Stranger Things appreciation group included friends from Europe, America, and Asia now living in Indiana. They were excited about, even touched by the references to the cult movies of their childhood including ET (1982), the Halloween series, Alien (1986), and The Thing (1982).\nThese science fiction movies brought familiar memories to me as well, not because I remember watching them as I grew up \u2014 none were shown in China in the 1980s \u2014 but because I remember the distinctive cultural and political atmosphere of that decade in my part of the world. My memory of that time was colored in a different hue because I\u2019m from the other side, that of the enemy, the dangerous Communist world that the scientists at the lab are working to defeat.\nDespite the normalization of US-China relations in 1972, the long ideological divide of the Cold War meant that literature and dramas from Russia, other socialist countries (e.g., Albania and North Korea), as well as from nearby Japan (for different reasons) dominated our cultural imaginaries of the world for almost half a century. The \u201cworld\u201d meant mainly just the Communist half, while the \u201cWest\u201d was the enemy.\nHollywood productions had only very limited circulation, most viewings were only allowed to certain leaders and units, who had privileged access to what we called \u201cfilms for internal circulation\u201d (neicanpian \u5185\u53c2\u7247) and \u201ctranslated films\u201d (yizhipian \u8bd1\u5236\u7247). Even in the \u201980s, when the government decided to make certain Western films available to the general public, the masses were generally only able to watch old classics, such as Jane Eyre (1943), Waterloo Bridge (1940), Guess Who\u2019s Coming to Dinner (1967), and the Murder on the Orient Express (1974). The latest Hollywood productions were introduced in the form of carefully organized \u201cForeign Cinema Weeks,\u201d and rarely did a film from the West show that was not at least a few years old.\nMy father told me that he could recite the lines from classic cinema. He became a college student after the entrance exams resumed in 1977. Unable to see the movies on the big screen, he practiced his memorization skills by reading the translated scripts in literary magazines. It was from those black and white pages that he constructed the stories so vividly in his colorful imagination. Whenever we watched those films together, he was always in a different universe, a different temporal-space.\nEven though I was born in the mid-\u201980s and grew up in the era of economic reforms when the Chinese everyday ideology had shifted to capitalist, imported music of that era, for me, still meant Soviet tunes such as Katyusha and Evenings in Suburban Moscow (Moscow Nights), not Jefferson Airplane, The Clash, or Toto. Now when I try to hum tunes from my 1980s, a stream of nostalgia embraces me. Although the source is perhaps unfamiliar to my friends, the emotions are similar to what they feel when they hear Stranger Things\u2019 \u201980s soundtrack. I remember fondly the comfort these songs once brought my parents in their youth, during turbulent years that saw dramatic social changes.\nThe 1980s in the U.S. (and Western Europe) was the Decade of Excess, when shiny materialism provided new horrors for science fiction, most notably how those damned by capitalism take revenge at the society that abandons them, hence themes of alienation and otherworldly exploration of materialism. It was also a decade mythologized and characterized by fabled rock stars with outsized and over-the-top lifestyles. At the same time, the U.S. involved itself in activities intended to eliminate or at least check the spread of Communism.\nIn China, the 1980s was a relatively open era. Following the death of Mao and the end of the Cultural Revolution, China opened to the world in 1979. To the North, Gorbachev became the new leader of USSR in 1985 and began some reform. Among those Chinese youths who enjoyed the liberal atmosphere \u2014 some took part in the 1989 Tiananmen protest \u2014 there is a common remark today that \u201cour Eighties are like the Sixties for Americans.\u201d They express nostalgia for the era of radical thinking, poetry writing, guitar playing, public gatherings, open debates, and above all, the possibility of political transformation.\nThough still apart from the rest of the world, the young Chinese of the \u201980s closely followed the news of the world, including the \u201cdramatic changes\u201d in Eastern Europe and the fall of the Berlin Wall. I remember reading award-winning school essays from the \u201980s with admiration. Their student authors were well versed in international politics and current affairs, debating topics such as On Left and Right or the downfall of Gorbachev.\nMass protests demanding democratization in China flared up in 1989, only to be extinguished. Economic development took the central stage, part of an attempt to dull the memory of as well as repress the spirit for political participation.\nAn increasing emphasis on Strongman politics and total loyalty to the party leadership means China is drifting farther from the political systems of Western democracies. The short-lived liberal atmosphere of the \u201980s has been replaced by heavy censorship and a system that materially rewards political indifference and obedience. Few students now \u2014 both American and Chinese \u2014 could believe that \u201cabsolute power corrupts absolutely\u201d was once a slogan of Chinese students during one of the largest protests for democracy in human history.\nThe long divide between the U.S. and the Communist world during the Cold War inspired speculation about the technological and scientific experiments conducted in its name, especially the costly efforts by the two superpowers to develop parapsychology and mind-control weapons. The need to stay ahead of the Russians is never far from the surface in Stranger Things. The secret science experiments conducted on El are part of an attempt to create a human weapon capable of intercepting information telepathically from Russian spies.\nSome information about the work conducted by the U.S. on these topics is now public. Often unethical and illegal by today\u2019s standards, these studies formed the basis of wartime morale research and consumer behavior studies, as well as begot the ubiquitous social science tool: the focus group. The experiments hoped to build functional machines to access a person\u2019s experiential stream of reality, with the ability to turn this stream into real-time data. Science fiction captures the scientific aims of those government-sponsored experiments to transform \u201cthe human.\u201d\nMany speculate that the Soviets had similar programs, and Stranger Things reflects such distrust and uneasiness as we wait for the unveiling of the creation of the monster and the upside-down. In doing so, it also pays homage to earlier science fictions films including The Philadelphia Experiment series (1984, 1993). That series was based on a rumored military experiment, said to have been carried out by the U.S. Navy in Philadelphia during WWII, in which the goal was to render a U.S. Navy destroyer invisible to enemy devices.\n\u201cEleven? Are you there? This is Mike.\u201d\nAs my new friends cheered the songs, the fashion and the cinematic references from their \u201980s, they also reaffirmed the historical divide that still haunts our perception of the world today. We too \u2014 my old Chinese childhood friends and I \u2014 enjoyed pop music as teenagers, but \u201cpartying\u201d was not part of life at all, as we grew up with a strict education system that instructed us to be dutiful, hard-working, and well-behaved. We also came of age grappling with a heavy load of homework that prepared us for the fierce competition for almost all kinds of resources at school and at work. Rebellion was reading Nietzsche in the library and greedily glancing at non-curricular literature secreted in the desk drawer while pretending to be doing homework. We are all subject to the historically-situated political arbitraries and embody the unbalanced power structure of the world. Global capitalism gives us the illusion that as long as individuals share the same products, fashion, and lifestyle engineered by the same companies, they are one. However, consumptive habits do not create solidarity. In that sense, it is very similar to the alienation and loneliness that I occasionally feel as a loner in the Midwest.\nThere is no universal historical memory. The sense of nostalgia and familiarity that Stranger Things evoked for me was the memory of the Cold War and its aftermath, rather than the \u201980s, which never arrived in my teens. Even now, as I study Marxism and left-wing political philosophy in a very different light than the Marxist state ideology I grew up with, I would consciously cover the word \u201ccommunism\u201d or \u201cMarx\u201d when reading them in public in the U.S., worrying that they might cause unnecessary misunderstanding or discomfort to people around me \u2014 possibly out of my own paranoia.\nHow should we understand each other\u2019s different experiences of the same decade? There is so much to learn about the histories through which each other\u2019s experiences were shaped. Perhaps that would be a good point to start. Perception animates all historical imaginaries, and vice versa.\nMike\u2019s resolution to save his friend who was trapped in the \u201cupside down world\u201d is the conscious decision to connect to the other side. Could we do the same? Could we escape the ghost that is haunting us \u2014 the ghost of fear and misunderstanding of unfamiliar experience, personal and collective, of history, of the other side?\nTing Guo writes bilingually and divides her time between Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei, and Cambridge, MA.

        "raw_content": "How to Make Small Business Consulting Profitable\nFor a beginning, let\u2019s ask ourselves the question: Is small business consulting profitable? The answer would be a resounding \u201cYes,\u201d from all corners of the world. So, why are you unable to make it work, and in the process help small consulting with your unique experience and approaches?\nYou are a business consultant, not the direct worker\nThe most common mix-up faced by small consultants is that rather than remaining as business advisors, they end up as direct service providers. They end up handling the major workload of the business process where they were expected only to provide advice, and the client ends up with a steep bill. In place of mutual satisfaction, you now have mutual dissatisfaction. The results are unwelcome on both sides \u2013 but they happen all too often, where in small business consulting, the consultant fails to maintain the position of a consultant.\nThere are three possible outcomes in such situations \u2013 the client pays up and remains upset with you, the client doesn\u2019t pay your bills and you are upset with the client, or both parties reach an unhappy compromise.\nAfter a few such mix-ups, you become convinced that there is no profitability in consulting. But you know, that\u2019s not true. The reality is your approach needs to be transparent and needs to change case by case.\nIn certain cases, time-schedule, lack of resources on part of the client, or other exigencies may call for you to provide most of the work as a direct service provider. But in such cases, the client needs to understand from the very beginning that the instant situation needs a service provider with your experience, more than it needs power of consulting. The client needs to have a clear idea of the bills that may be chalked up if you were providing direct service, or the client is free to hire another direct service provider, to save the day. Even providing that little advice is sufficient for you to bill as a consultant, because the client was unable to recognize the situation. What you are doing is business consulting, and not creating a fallible situation.\nWhy small business consulting mix-ups happen with such regularity\nThe oldest and most traditional businesses in providing consulting have traditionally modeled themselves as consultant-cum-service providers, take for example, law firms, or Accountant firms. Each of these sectors are used to clients coming to them at the last moment or when the situation is precarious for them, and according to the laws of maximizing business opportunities, they have set up systems to provide service alternatives ready at hand. In fact, in many such traditional firms, service delivery starts first, and then it turns to consulting.\nHowever, in the era of information technology, the number of alternatives available even to small one are hundred times more than the time when CPAs or law firms began establishing their business models. Consequently, with the availability of greater choice of service providers, and ability to compare between alternatives, the chances of client dissatisfaction multiply. This is why, in today\u2019s consulting, it is sufficient to point out the necessity of direct service delivery to a client, without embroiling yourself, or pushing your own agenda of direct service.\nIn a globalized service providing market, you can never outbid the \u201cI\u2019m cheaper than you can ever be\u201d brigade, and don\u2019t even think of that. To make small business consulting profitable, stick to your guns and be a consultant primarily, and act as direct service provider only when the client asks you, and only when you can afford to do so at the client\u2019s rates.\nPrevious Entry: Signs That You\u2019ve Hired the Right Business Consultant\nNext Entry: What Can You Expect From the Business Consulting Process?\nPrevious Entry Signs That You\u2019ve Hired the Right Business Consultant\nNext Entry What Can You Expect From the Business Consulting Process?",

We do not hear the screams coming from the cellar where hidden stairs lead us to Inferno. We do not smell the blood and burnt flesh from those sacrificed to gods long since forgotten. But, some of us see glimpses beyond the veil. We have this strange feeling that something is not right - the ramblings of a madman in the subway seems to carry a hidden message, and our reclusive neighbor does not appear to be completely human. By slowly discovering the truth about our prison, our captors and our hidden pasts, we can finally awaken from our induced sleep and take control of our destiny.\nKult was first published as an RPG in 1991 in Swedish and subsequently in English, German, Italian, Polish, Spanish and French.

        "raw_content": "Artist talk. Andre Guedes\nJune 28th, Saturday at 3pm at CAC Reading room\nRupert invites you to an Artist Talk by a Lisbon-based artist Andr\u00e9 Guedes. The talk is organised by Rupert and will take place at the CAC Reading Room on Saturday, 28 June, 3 pm. Andr\u00e9 Guedes will talk about strategies of self-appropriation, migration and displacement in his work, exemplifying them through the ongoing project Prospectus, from which Scene III, Interval and Scene IV are currently presented at Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation\u2019s Modern Art Centre in Lisbon.\nAndr\u00e9 Guedes graduated in Architecture from the Technical University of Lisbon (1997). He was artist-in-residence at the Cittadellarte-Fondazione Pistoletto (Biella, 2003), Palais de Tokyo (Paris, 2005-06) and at Gasworks (London, 2011).\n\u201cFrom the ranks of post-conceptual art, Andr\u00e9 Guedes\u2019 work advances a social and political critique, exploring subjects (upon researching historic and literary themes) and information (Guedes often incorporates documentation in his artwork) as his artistic media, leading to installations, performances, stage sets and urban interventions. The mediation between works and audiences and the live dimension of theatre is at the crux of Guedes\u2019 practice, which articulates art as a tool of transformation and social commentary, through strategies of re-contextualisation of space, dislocation and re-appropriation of materials, destabilisation of the place of the spectator and the tension between the texts and contexts devised for each work.\u201d (Afonso Ramos)",

Your goal for this essay is to engage the reader and make them feel like they're there.To achieve this, use lots of small details \u2013 something we'd have noticed if we were there.Note how the subject of the essay is established early \u2013 in a ten-paragraph essay, by the second paragraph, you already kind of feel like you know the person it's about. It will be easier to write if the subject (in the case that it is a person) immediately seems to have had remarkable experiences (celebrity, veteran, casino robber), but essays where the subject is not immediately intriguing can be very interesting to read, and the opposite is true as well \u2013 it's all in the hands of the writer.\nI enjoy Madmen, Woody Allen films circa 1980\u2019s, and Howard Stern, when I could still tune in on my apparently outdated non-XM car radio. About him I\u2019d like to meet a man who is open and honest, even with the hard stuff.\nI tweet, can update my Facebook status and blog, but still prefer to connect to people the old-fashioned way. We\u2019d be comfortable together, laughing, dancing, traveling, or playing tennis (go easy on me \u2013 I\u2019m just learning).\nUnless this is a special case, you'll need to interview the subject of your essay in person. Aim for the questions that are broad and open-ended, starting with who, what, where, when and why.\nYes or no questions should be kept to a minimum, since there's always a risk that your subject will be quiet and you'll end up burning through your questions and them just nodding or shaking their head instead of providing proper answers.\nIn fact, a clear point of view on the person and the events that transpired will make for a better essay and a figuring out a \u201cdominant impression\u201d is key in profile essays.\nJust like in essays you've written before, you have to make a statement and present arguments to back it up.\nWriting a profile essay is difficult work \u2013 in just a few pages you have to establish a character, their environment, what makes them tick and your opinion on it all.\nBut this work can be fulfilling, and, for many, a welcome chance to flex their writing muscles. The first step of writing a successful profile essay is reading other profile essays.\nYou won\u2019t find me wallowing in self-pity, but you will find me swimming against the tide.\nMy love of travel has taken me from a AM visit to the bustling fish market in Japan to walking the steep hills of San Francisco (my aching calves were well-earned).\nRight now, I\u2019m reading \u201cThe Power of Now\u201d, \u201cLife is a Verb\u201d, and \u201cDaring Greatly\u201d. I\u2019m interested in a partner to share the wonders of life, someone who appreciates the small as well as the grand moments, a man who has a high energy level, who\u2019s honest and open, and has a very positive outlook on life.

Given this dramatic turn of events, it is little wonder that since 1945 generations of historians keep trying to explain how it all happened.\nThis richly illustrated history provides a readable and fresh approach to the complex history of the Third Reich, from the coming to power of the Nazis in 1933 to the final collapse in 1945. Using photographs, paintings, propaganda images, and a host of other such materials from a wide range of sources, including official documents, cinema, and the photography of contemporary amateurs, foreigners, and the Allied armies, it distills our ideas about the period and provides a balanced and accessible account of the whole era.\nRobert Gellately is Earl Ray Beck Professor of History at Florida State University. His publications have been translated into over twenty languages and include the widely acclaimed Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler: The Age of Social Catastrophe, Backing Hitler: Consent and Coercion in Nazi Germany, 1933-1945, and Stalin's Curse: Battling for Communism in War and Cold War.

        "raw_content": "Descent into Post-modernism\nIn general, postmodern writing involves a blurring of boundaries.\nI\u2019ve been quiet but I haven\u2019t been idle. This post is going to be more like a personal agenda so that I can track stuff without getting utterly lost. The point is I have a point, or at least trying to chase it.\nThis \u201cpost-modern\u201d thing is fascinating, but also elusive. The real question is to get a grasp of at least what it does mean on a very general, but shareable, level. I had ideas but I wasn\u2019t sure they were correct and fitting, and they were also too blurred to offer a good grasp.\nIn the end I discovered TvTropes and that offered a concise, pragmatic guide (especially how it applies to the variety of the media of today). Many of my ideas were proved sound and could be better positioned.\nThis kind of journey is across mediums. I\u2019ve been moving through TV series, movies, games, anime, books and more. There\u2019s a reason and it is relevant. A few months ago I was looking into Jonathan Lethem after watching a documentary and this excerpt from the wikipedia is fitting:\nNowadays, I\u2019ve come to feel that talking about categories, about \u2018high\u2019 and \u2018low\u2019, about genre and their boundaries and the blurring of those boundaries, all consists only of an elaborate way to avoid actually discussing what moves and interests me about books\u2014my own, and others\u2019.\nA lot of what I like is innately postmodern, so discovering what the term refers to is like discovering what\u2019s the rule I answer to. It is so wide not because empty of value so that you can fit in whatever you want. The patterns are specific, and the patterns are what interests me.\nThis habit of \u201ctracing\u201d stuff through the wikipedia or TvTropes is typical of the superficial glance at \u201ceverything\u201d, but that superficiality isn\u2019t the important trait. The important trait is to recognize patterns that link the most disparate stuff. For example I\u2019m watching Fringe. A TV series I recommend, very similar to X-Files yet better on certain aspects. It sits well with the postmodern angle as it plays quite blatantly with perception and \u201cframes\u201d (two things that are at the core of what I look for in Post-modernism). Its mythology is extremely straightforward and that\u2019s not what draws my attention the most. What\u2019s in the show is quite blatant and often clumsy, but there\u2019s an extremely fascinating \u201cdark side of the moon\u201d, of ideas suggested but not played. So I watch it with interest more for those ideas suggested but not played with directly. What is not shown. That part of the mythology that is not canon.\nSo looking at the frames of things, not the details within. The relationships between the frames, relative positioning. You recognize patterns that maybe aren\u2019t \u201ctrue\u201d (like the ideas that a Fringe episode may suggest you, but that aren\u2019t really part of the plot in any explicit way) but that help move you closer. An idea close to another trope, the Death Of The Author in its more extreme and postmodern definition:\nJust because you wrote it, what makes you think you have the slightest idea what it\u2019s about?\nTake a little leap of faith, and it leads to Not in Heaven. It\u2019s our right and even duty to take up the thing and understand or interpret it our own way.\nThis summer I have enjoyed quite a bit going through Final Fantasy XIII\u2019s plot. It\u2019s quite awesome (despite the actual game being rather subpar) and filled to the brim with those kinds of reveals and reversals I love. I\u2019m not even sure I \u201cread\u201d the story the same as everyone else. For example Vanille is the typical FF airhead character. Utterly naive, clueless, cutesy, high-pitched voice to the point of annoyance. Not much clothes on her because she has to fit that male-titillating role. Oddly enough, they give her the narrating role, and this introspective voice she gets is already quite a bit different than the Vanille shown in the rest of the game. One wonders why they picked her this kind of role. At this point the plot is about a bunch of disparate characters who don\u2019t know each other and are brought together by events. They are completely clueless about what to do, so they merely stumble along in their blindness. Some 15 hours in there\u2019s one image. A sudden reveal that puts, without even using words, Vanille as a pivot and origin of the whole clusterfuck. Not the hapless victim, but the one who started it all. Suddenly all appearances are overturned, the reveal is enough to change everything literally. That flimsy, naive character was all a ruse, because SHE KNEW. She faked being ignorant like everyone else so that she could manipulate them and push them along as required (it\u2019s a female Kruppe!). The airhead had been the master manipulator, so that the others were doing exactly what they were expected to without even the slight suspicion. This is a rather great pattern that then reiterates and escalates a number of times. I love this stuff because every loop doesn\u2019t just overwrite the previous, it just\u2026 expands (like what\u2019s good in Fringe, every season adds a whole new layer that BUILDS on the previous and contains it). In the end Vanille was only a small piece, herself being also manipulated in a much wider picture. Add in dreaming statues, inner worlds, manipulative gods, the end of the world and the deceit of deceits and this becomes pretty much Malazan, the game.\nWithin there, the themes I\u2019m chasing. Awareness, the perception, manipulation, the distinction between dreams and reality, the possibility of choice, the place of god, revelations, delusions, and so on. Postmodernism is all that, plus the bending of the medium. The fabric itself where you write your pattern of meaning, that can also be twisted and manipulated. Where\u2019s up? Where\u2019s down? (look at Evangelion, episode 26). One of the most representative writer dealing with stuff is obviously Philip K. Dick, especially the latter works (quoting TvTropes):\nWhen the novel begins, Dick opens by saying that it is a fictionalized account of his own encounters with Gnosticism/his schizophrenia, and he is writing the book to get a perspective on himself. The fictionalized version of himself is named Horselover Fat (\u201cPhilip\u201d being Greek for \u201chorse lover\u201d and \u201cDick\u201d being German for \u201cfat\u201d), and the book begins from Fat\u2019s perspective. Over time, however he begins to write in the first person including excerpts from his unpublished Exegesis. Eventually, Dick becomes the main character of the story and he interacts with his own fictionalized clone.\nFrom there I discovered a writer I had never heard of despite he\u2019s been around from quite some time: Christopher Priest. He and David Cronenberg go hand in hand.\nI managed to order an used copy of A Dream of Wessex, whose plot is a distillation of what I\u2019m looking into:\nA Dream of Wessex can be read as a straightforward story about a group of twentieth-century dreamers who create a consensus virtual-reality future. Once they enter their imaginary world they are unable to remember who they are, or where they are from. On another level, the novel is itself an extended metaphor for the way in which extrapolated futures are created.\nThe obvious link here is to \u201cDisciple of the Dog\u201d. Bakker is a writer that fits perfectly into all this, including the root of his fantasy work:\nIf you are the movement of your soul, and the cause of that movement precedes you, then how could you ever call your thoughts your own? How could you be anything other than a slave to the darkness that comes before?\nIs a call for \u201cawareness\u201d, it reminds me of DFW commencement speech, also, in its own way, a call for awareness. And here we cross another medium and we arrive to Japanese Visual Novels: Steins;Gate. The Prologue (you could then also watch Fringe, season 3, episode 3 for another of those links).\nFor some reason Japan is the cradle of Post-modernism applied to popular culture, and the Visual Novels are possibly the most suitable medium for playing with mind screws (and so symbolism) and perception. Another \u201cframe\u201d with so much good stuff that you can lose yourself within (and I will).\nSteins;Gate opens its own category. The Visual Novel (30 hours total playtime according to ErogameScape) is finally being translated and imminent. It has the reputation of being absolutely awesome and one of the best Visual Novels ever made. The Drama CDs are also being translated (\u03b3, \u03b1, \u03b2, about one hour each). The anime was completed a few days ago and received many praises despite adaptations from VNs don\u2019t usually turn for the better. Steins;Gate also exists in the same Verse of another VN, also available in English and considered quite good on its own: Chaos;Head (20 hours playtime). If you are a completist like me you\u2019ll want to go through the whole thing even if these stories are unrelated.\n\u201cMind Screw\u201d is basically synonymous of Visual Novel, so there are a number of more titles, thankfully available in English through fan-made translations, that are worth looking into. In the end an handful of titles dominate the genre. One is the Nasuverse. Specifically the most known title (among all VNs) is Fate/Stay Night (53 hours playtime), preceded by Tsukihime (35 hours playtime). Tsukihime is interesting in its own right, especially a kind of sequel, Kagetsu Tohya (25 hours playtime), that is a crazy dream sequence that loops over and over till you are able to find a way to escape it. I love just looking at the flowcharts. Even here, for the complete journey beside Tsukihime, sequel, fan disk, and Fate/Stay Night (they tell me to stay away from the anime adaptations of all these), there\u2019s also a series of seven anime movies, considered to be quite excellent. Kara no Ky\u014dkai, being actually the first piece of the three-parts creation and worthy in its own right: \u201cWhile considered by many to be the prototype of Tsukihime, it is much, MUCH more complex, sometimes to the point of being Mind Screw.\u201d\nBetween that and Chaos;Head (and later on this post, Lain), I\u2019m also reminded of this (director: Sion Sono).\nAnother chunk of relevant Visual Novels is represented by another writer, Romeo Tanaka. Whose only two main works are available in english: Yume Miru Kusuri (15 hours playtime) (whose subtitle fits well with the theme: \u201cA Drug That Makes You Dream\u201d), and especially CROSS\u2020CHANNEL (25 hours playtime). The latter, along with another title, Ever17: The Out of Infinity (30 hours playtime), being the signature \u201cmind screws\u201d.\nWhat\u2019s left? Umineko. An 8-parts Visual Novel (about 10 hours every episode, so a total of 80 hours, the script is HUGE) that thrives on mystery and speculation. A kind of detective story heavy on supernatural elements. This got quite a big following and only the last chapter is waiting an english translation. As a whole is one of the hugest works (it passes easily the million in wordcount), \u201cepic\u201d in its own right. And finally Muv-Luv. Considered the greatest of the VNs along with (the ancient) YU-NO (44 hours playtime) (with another insane flowchart and also with an imminent english translation). Muv-Luv being a kind of special case as it is a product of \u201cgenre shift\u201d. Divided into three parts (consider 30 hours for the first two, and 40 for the last) where only the last is where it builds its reputation, and going from harem comedy to hardcore mecha. The trope \u201cAnyone Can Die\u201d is a synonymous of Muv-Luv. This, and other stuff, is being translated by the excellent Ixrec (where you can also find other very good reviews). Other good reviews I found on The Escapist. Especially Deskimus Prime and NeutralDrow (check their posts for more).\nThere\u2019s another mecha series with an high reputation that\u2019s still untranslated (it would be another huge effort) and that even has some insane gameplay included. This pretty much closes the chapter \u201cVisual Novel\u201d. Playing five minutes of Chaos;Head would give a very good idea why these all righteously belong in Post-modernism.\nStepping slightly aside, I\u2019m now watching Serial Experiments Lain. A Japanese anime that again fits perfectly, including stuff I previously mentioned on the blog, from the wikipedia:\nLikewise, the series\u2019 Deus ex machina lies in the conjunction of the Schumann resonance and Jung\u2019s collective unconscious (the authors chose this term over Kabbalah and Akashic Record).\nEnough keywords in there to find more stuff and more interesting links. The anime is packed with symbolic meaning and it will be fun to parse (and to watch alongside Fringe).\nThis reminds me I\u2019ve just ordered Thomas Pynchon\u2019s The Crying of Lot 49, which also has a companion book, like The Gravity\u2019s Rainbow (that I own already). Also sitting, if not leading, righteously in the Post-modern genre.\nAnother book to look into is Breakfast of Champions, by Kurt Vonnegut:\nBreakfast is a personalized account of the phrase \u201cperfect paranoia is perfect awareness.\u201d Pontiac salesman Dwayne Hoover becomes obsessed with the work of sci-fi writer Kilgore Trout, eventually spiraling into acute eruptions of anxiety when he believes that he is the sole human combating a world of reificated humanoids. Black satire at the peak of its powers.\nOr TvTropes:\nIt\u2019s taken to it\u2019s logical extreme in Breakfast Of Champions, in which the author, Kurt Vonnegut Jr., appears at the end of the book, is attacked by a dog from a previous novel and apologizes to one of the two main characters for making his life so miserable.\nBut I was talking about anime and forgot to mention the pinnacle of Kabbalah and Post-modernism. Not Evangelion (that is so blatant that it\u2019s implicit in the list, like Infinite Jest) but The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. It\u2019s so sublime (and postmodern) that I refuse to spoil. This just has to be experienced. Trying to find a correct watch-order for the anime is already an impossible task (all episodes are \u201cscrambled\u201d chronologically, and then across two series). And it goes to extremes (Endless Eight) that are utterly unbelievable and masochist.\nThen, maybe, watch \u03c0 (the guy best known for Black Swan). I haven\u2019t yet seen The Fountain, but they are closely related. In a certain way The Tree of Life too, but of that I already written on the blog.\nI was forgetting, I found Christopher Priest because Adam Roberts reviewed his recent book (whose link to ergodic literature is another fascinating discovery).\nAnd to cap this journey, another movie: Synecdoche, New York.\nFor thousands of years, fiction made no room for characters who changed. Men felt the need for an explanation of their baffling existence, created gods, and projected onto them the solutions for their enigmas. These gods of course had to be immutable, for they stood above the foibles of men\nRogert Ebert thinks it\u2019s the best movie of the last ten years. It\u2019s Charlie Kaufman directorial debut and he\u2019s known for penning the scripts of some utterly crazy (and awesome) works, like: \u201cBeing John Malkovich\u201d, \u201cAdaptation\u201d and \u201cEternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind\u201d (these all movies being great). Working often with Spike Jonze, but also Michel Gondry, whose The Science of Sleep deserves to be on this list (including the Dream Argument).\nLast namedrop is Richard Linklater, probably best known for Dick\u2019s \u201cA Scanner Darkly\u201d, but it\u2019s Ebert review of Waking Life that draws my attention.\nTo not have the answers is expected. To not ask questions is a crime against your own mind.",

        "raw_content": "Debutants, last chances and title defence: The journey of four unique teams\nThe Women\u2019s EHF FINAL4 has arrived \u2013 and every team that reached the EHF Champions League\u2019s ultimate destination has a unique story. For five-time participants HC Vardar, the FINAL4 2018 represents a \u2018last chance\u2019 for the current line-up to claim the trophy before they go their separate ways this summer. For their semi-final opponents Rostov-Don, arriving at the FINAL4 represents an historic achievement, as they make their debut at the event. Gy\u00f6ri Audi ETO KC hope to reclaim the trophy won in 2017, while Bucuresti aim to repeat their 2016 success.\nOn Friday, the FINAL4 teams participated in a media call where they shared their last thoughts before the games, followed by a meet and greet with fans. The event at Heroes\u2019 Square took place alongside various promotional activities set up for the Women\u2019s EHF FINAL4.\nVardar and Rostov will meet for the second semi-final at 18:00 on Saturday, after Gy\u00f6r take on their 2016 final opponents CSM Bucuresti at 15:15 \u2013 the last step before they have the chance to become the first side ever to defend a title won at the EHF FINAL4.\n\u201cI think we have good confidence. I think we have struggled a lot this season with injuries and we\u2019ve shown how strong we are as a team \u2013 so in this way we are confident that we overcame all these obstacles,\u201d says Gy\u00f6r centre back Nycke Groot.\nMartin\u2019s last stand with Gy\u00f6r\nThe defending champions will have a certain swansong of their own, as coach Ambros Martin will leave the team he led to three titles in six years to join Rostov for next season.\n\u201cHe is very good at motivating us. He is a very good trainer tactically, very sharp. I like this very much in a trainer. I just want to be prepared and he\u2019s helping with this a lot,\u201d says Groot.\nGroot\u2019s fellow centre back Stine Oftedal, playing in her first Champions League season despite being an established star for Norway, is focused on how to beat Bucuresti\u2019s defence:\n\u201cThey play a really compact defence, they want to get out in the middle, force us to take some shots. It\u2019s compact, tough,\u201d says Oftedal. \u201cI hope that we will find some openings for sure and we have some tactics.\u201d\nThough Gy\u00f6r enter the FINAL4 as title defenders, with the knowledge that it was their semi-final opponents CSM who they beat to win the 2017 trophy, both sides agree the chances are equal. Bucuresti\u2019s Cristina Neagu, who was announced as the EHF Champions League All-star Left Back for the fourth time in a row on Friday, believes the Hungarian team can profit a little from their home advantage:\n\u201cI think the chances are equal. They have a little advantage because every season they are playing at home in front of their own crowd, maybe 10,000 people, and for sure it\u2019s nicer. They have the biggest support at the FINAL4 every time, but still I don\u2019t see any favourites in this game tomorrow,\u201d says Neagu.\n\u201cHopefully, I really hope, that our goalkeepers will have a big day tomorrow because I think it\u2019s really important in these kinds of games,\u201d adds Neagu, echoing the thoughts of many when discussing the FINAL4, including Gy\u00f6r coach Martin.\nThe importance of goalkeepers\nRostov-Don goalkeeper Mayssa Pessoa is playing her third straight FINAL4 after winning the trophy with CSM in 2016, then playing with Vardar in 2017.\n\u201cI think I give luck for the clubs! I don\u2019t know,\u201d laughs Pessoa. \u201cThe team is really motivated. This was the objective for all players, for all the club, to come here, but why not? We can even go to the final and do something bigger, so let\u2019s see.\u201d\nPessoa agrees that her position is one of the most important at the FINAL4: \u201cI think everybody knows that this is a very special position. You are always alone and if you don\u2019t give your maximum, you cannot help the team. So I think yes, it is like 50% of the team. You need to be great to help the team. When they are down, you need to pull them up.\u201d\n\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter which team \u2013 we will fight\u201d\nRostov\u2019s debut at the FINAL4 shows that women\u2019s handball in Russia is returning to the highest level in Europe. The achievement comes after seven of their players won Russia\u2019s first Olympic title in 2016.\n\u201cI think we are growing,\u201d says 2016 Olympic MVP Anna Vyakhireva. \u201cNow we are in the FINAL4, a Russian club, so I think it\u2019s really, really exciting for me and for the other girls \u2013 and I hope it\u2019s not the last time! But I think we are really, really growing every year, and trying to create maybe something new \u2013 you know our teams, we have so many young players, good players, and I think we will get better and better every year. I hope so.\u201d\nWhile Rostov played both CSM and Gy\u00f6r already this season, they have yet to face Vardar in a Champions League match.\n\u201cWe played against them last summer and we did good, but it was just a preparation camp for this season so we cannot say something concrete,\u201d says Vyakhireva. \u201cHere at the FINAL4, there cannot be some easy games, so it doesn\u2019t matter which team \u2013 we will fight.\u201d\n\u201cWhoever has the best defence will win the Champions League\u201d\nVardar centre back Andrea Lekic hopes this will be the Macedonia\u2019s side\u2019s year to take the title, after finishing third in 2014, 2015 and 2016, then qualifying for their first final in 2017 \u2013 but she does not underestimate Rostov\u2019s experience.\n\u201cIf you look at their roster, those are all players who are experienced, they have the titles. You know when you come in these kinds of matches the most important is that you are going to give your maximum,\u201d says Lekic, who will move to CSM alongside current Vardar players Dragana Cvijic and Jovanka Radicevic next season. Cvijic is a key part of Vardar\u2019s defensive line-up, and believes it is at this end of the court that the title will be decided:\n\u201cIn defence we must play hard against Rostov, because they play very good one-against-one, and we must be hard like every game,\u201d says Cvijic. \u201cDefence for me is the most important. We prepared very good defence for Champions League for all season and now for the FINAL4. I think this is the key for every team \u2013 whoever has the best defence will win the Champions League.\u201d",

        "title": "Dear Republican Party: Please Don't Hate Me Because I'm Beautiful - ChezGigi",
        "raw_content": "Dear Republican Party;\nI see that you\u2019re gearing up for the presidential election. I\u2019ve been waiting around to see if you\u2019d stop hating me because I\u2019m beautiful, but I don\u2019t think much has changed in recent years.\nAccording to people in the know, men and many women, hate beautiful women. It has something to do with evolution or sociology. Or high school.\nMost people never progress emotionally past sophomore year, and this is why you\u2019re bothered when no one sits with you at lunch, even though you\u2019re eating at your desk.\n(Don\u2019t ask me why I put a Kazon up there; they just seem like they may be Republicans.)\nIs this putative hatred of beautiful women based on scientific evidence? Does the Party hate all women, or just beautiful women? Some Republicans think women have supernatural powers, like the ability to shutdown unwanted pregnancies.\nIf women could do this, there would be less than half the Catholics there are now in the world. Probably less than half the people, period.\nOthers say contraception is not okay because it may lead to \u2018dangerous or unnatural practices\u2019 in general society, such as driving on the left, or eating sushi with a fork.\nAnother Republican man said rape should not be prosecuted because women have abortions, therefore they deserve to be victims of violence, too.\nThis guy is in luck, because I followed his thought to its logical conclusion. Since it\u2019s mainly men who rape, he should be raped.\n\u2018Aha!\u2019, thought I. \u2018The Republican Party is saying these crazy things because I\u2019m beautiful!\u2019 What other explanation could there be for such 17th-century pseudo-scientific meanderings?\n(I really don\u2019t think we should insult a former century. Da Vinci wouldn\u2019t say such things. He was ahead of his time. He was even ahead of the 17th century.)\nThe majority of the Republican Party is white and male. We can discount the female members, like Palin or Coulter, who are good-looking women. The Party has made sure they only say stupid things, so it\u2019s alright for them to be beautiful.\nThe Republican Party does not just hate beautiful women like me. No, they also appear to hate gay men and women, and even poor and/or elderly men and women. That blows my theory all to hell. Am I now to suppose I am not as beautiful as I had at first suspected?\nI am not gay, or poor, though I am frequently broke.\nDespite evidence to the contrary, I feel obligated to conclude once again that I am hated because I\u2019m beautiful. Which really doesn\u2019t bother me, you know.\nThere are differing opinions as to why men in general hate women, especially beautiful ones, if indeed they do, or whether the ones who do, are indeed, Republican.\nThere isn\u2019t verbal stone-throwing or woman-bashing from Democrats, but on the other hand, Republican administrations have appointed some intelligent women to high office.\nOne of the reasons given for this putative hatred, as cited from an unimpeachable source, Cracked.com:\n\u201cMen were promised a \u2018hot chick\u2019 growing up, because they watched movies with a gawky, awkward hero, who regardless of his looks, got the hot female star. This did not happen to him in real life, in spite of the gifts he gave her, or how nice he was, or even after he pulled her from a burning building. This led to feelings of anger and betrayal.\u201d So saith Cracked.\n(Okay, I\u2019m guessing the building wasn\u2019t on fire, and she didn\u2019t want to go, but that is neither here nor there.)\nYou are helpless to resist, my friend.\nWell, join the club, Ordinary Guy. Few of us beautiful women got George Clooney or Brad Pitt, and if we did, we lost him to Angelina. So there.\nAnother reason is that men have been trained from birth to see women as decorations, and they get ticked if a woman does not measure up to mainstream standards in weight or looks.\nAny successful woman, if she does not look like the aforementioned Angelina Jolie, suffers the wrath of men and women alike.\nPeople always comment on a woman\u2019s looks, and it doesn\u2019t matter if she\u2019s a Harvard educated appointee to the Supreme Court, or a resident of a run-down trailer park who\u2019s been accused of murder. Her looks are first and foremost in everyone\u2019s mind.\nMen comment on her looks because they think about sex 99% of the time. However, many women make nasty remarks about a woman\u2019s looks too, whether she\u2019s good looking or not, and they must have reasons other than male sexual obsession or free-floating hostility.\nBecause men think almost exclusively about sex, they believe that women will ruin them, because they get Inappropriate Boners.\n(An inappropriate boner is one not sanctioned by the Department of Health and Human Services and the local constabulary.)\nThese feelings about women cause many men in public jobs, like Santa, or judges, to indulge in auto-erotic behavior (this does not mean making out in a car) while doing their job.\n(\u2018Hanging judge\u2019 does not refer to a public servant who went commando under his magisterial robes.) Santa is another story; he should not \u2018come\u2019 down the chimney until Christmas Eve.\nMen may hate beautiful women because they feel their manhood was stolen from them, as far back as kindergarten. They didn\u2019t get to act like Spartans and go to war with spears and swords and kill a bunch of enemies on the playground.\nInstead, they were exhorted to be kind and gentle. They became resentful, and blamed women for feelings of powerlessness, because it was their mom or female teacher who punished them for socking someone.\nThe notion of the \u2018succubus\u2019 came from these deep seated feelings of resentment for being civilized against their will; she\u2019ll get you while you\u2019re sleeping, and you\u2019ll enjoy it, but resent the intrusion.\nThese things may or may not, play an unconscious role in why the Republican Party hates me. What no one has ever said, but what I\u2019ve long suspected, is that the Republican Party is like the church. If women don\u2019t have babies, membership will decline.\nIf women don\u2019t have babies, they will have too much time on their hands, so much time they are very likely to get an education and become successful, thus making men feel more discomfort.\nI conclude with this thought, Republican Party; we all have to live together, and while I won\u2019t be beautiful forever, someone else will come along who is just as beautiful.\nhttp://chezgigi.com/2016/01/29/dear-republican-party-please-dont-hate-me-because-im-beautiful/\n10 Things Women Don't Do In Movies That Make Me Crazy And Every Toddler Knows How To Do\n10 Things Women Don't Do In Movies won the Boost Blog Traffic Summer Writing contest.\u2026\nbeautiful womenbirth control and babiesreublican partysuccubus\nStill laughing\u263a\nBets- I\u2019m glad you hadn\u2019t read that one already!

Bear with me. xo\nI\u2019ve waited a while before commenting on this delight \u2013 but now I think you (and many Democrats) will agree that arm-candy has garnered much more allure. At least among Republican voters. I mean \u2013 it can\u2019t possibly be issues \u2013 which are never addressed intelligently by certain frontrunners.\nI\u2019ve heard Trump is already getting tired of his current arm candy. The man is hard to please. Aren\u2019t you glad you don\u2019t have to worry about this election? It\u2019s a bad one.\nThank goodness I\u2019m a Conservative and not a Republican.\nI\u2019m glad, too. And that you\u2019re not a \u2018hanging judge.\u2019\nhttp://chezgigi.com/2016/01/29/dear-republican-party-please-dont-hate-me-because-im-beautiful",

        "raw_content": "Alternative Gift Giving\nI pulled into the packed parking lot but found a space quickly and headed directly for the new addition to the building. I walked in and was immediately immersed into a crowded hallway that was bustling with activity. I saw a coffee station and decided to grab a quick cup to sip on while waiting for service to start. I noticed a long hallway leading from the new part of the building to the main part, which was lined with display tables for various non-profits and other charitable organizations. I later learned that this was an \u201calternative gift market\u201d which was encouraging people to donate or serve for Christmas rather than spend excessively on typical Christmas gifts. I cannot help but think that if people truly got in touch with the real purpose of the Christmas season that making these type of sacrifices would become more important than spending large sums of money on what our consumeristic culture has turned such a sacred spiritual holiday into. I finished my cup of coffee while browsing the alternative gift market and then decided to go ahead and get ready for worship. I had two choices for worship services\u2026traditional worship took place in the main sanctuary, but I opted for contemporary worship inside \u201cThe Commons\u201d, which was the new part of the building. I was handed a bulletin on my way in the room, which was sparsely populated compared to the crowded hallway and lobby just outside. The room was darker than I would have expected, and I noticed that everyone was seated near the back of the room, so I also stayed close to back also, hoping to engage some people in conversation as I waited for the service to begin.\nTo Be or Not To Be (Contemporary)\nChrist United Methodist contemporary worship band\nI did not have my wife, Laura, with me this week, so I was forced to sit alone and I was not able to engage anyone in conversation. Most of the people either seemed preoccupied on a destination or task at hand, or disinterested in socializing. The people who were socializing were already engaged in groups and it would have been awkward for me to try to break in to the conversations. I was pretty disappointed that nobody approached or greeted me on the way in and that nobody seemed to be on the lookout for visitors. Since I did not have anyone to talk to, I changed my focus from people to worshiping the Lord, and stood up to praise him as the band took the stage and began to play. The praise band consisted of two electric guitars, an acoustic guitar, bass, drums, and a keyboard, and they produced a loud rock-inspired sound as they blasted through three worship songs with time for prayers and contemplation to absorb the message. I do not want to sound critical here (and I know I will probably fail) but during this time I was consumed by a troubling thought about churches in our current society. It seems like contemporary worship has been adopted as an \u201cimitation\u201d by churches who don\u2019t really \u201cget it\u201d but feel like they have to offer it or suffer the consequences of not connecting with the younger generations. I say this because I feel like the difference between \u201cgetting it\u201d and \u201cnot getting it\u201d is the act of worship. At some churches, contemporary worship is expressive and connected. You can feel it. The Spirit is at work and compelling people to sing out with enthusiasm and emotion, people are usually moved to either dance or sway to the music and maybe raise their hands, and almost always you can see it in the facial expressions around the room. At other churches, contemporary worship just seems like singing songs in a different style. It is just music without worship. This probably sounds judgmental, and to a certain extent it probably is\u2026but my intent here is to just provide some commentary on what my experiences are like. I am sure other people feel very differently than me and I would argue that neither of us are right or wrong. I thought the praise band at Christ United Methodist displayed excellent talent and sincere effort, and I used the time to focus internally and open my heart to God in worship rather than do it externally with expressive worship (which is just a personal preference, not a knock on how they do things at Christ United Methodist).\nChrist United Methodist - The Commons\nAfter worship was over a large projection screen descended and was used to pipe in the sermon from the main sanctuary. This explained why everyone was seated toward the back of the room and also why it was so dark. Senior Minister Mark Flynn, a young, hip, well-dressed, plainly spoken man who seemed to be able to connect with multiple generations and cultures, began his sermon with a Scripture reading from 1 Corinthians 12:12-30. He talked about \u201choles in the Gospel\u201d, which did not infer that it is lacking anything, but that there are places where we are called to \u201cplug in\u201d. He used this passage and analogy to convey the message that Jesus Christ began a worldwide conspiracy in which we are also called to be part of something greater than ourselves. Pastor Mark referenced verses 4-11 to reiterate that every Christian has spiritual gifts, which often go unused, many times because people do not even realize that they are special gifts. He made a point that was groundbreaking in my mind, because I had never really thought of it this way\u2026that because our spiritual gifts feel so natural and come so easily to us, we often think they are not important and that everyone has the same abilities. This is obviously not the case though, as he pointed out several types of gifts that are often mistaken in this way. He then hit the congregation with a few tough, self-reflecting questions that involved considering what happens when 25% or even 50% of a church body does not effectively use their spiritual gifts in service (and conversely, what would it look like if everyone did use them?). After the service closed I slowly exited the building, hoping that I might be able to enjoy some fellowship and make some new acquaintances. I was disappointed that it did not happen, but at the same time I was encouraged by the thought that I am not at a place spiritually where I need to feel welcomed and accepted by people to know that I am loved and accepted by my Savior. I also know that there are others out there who are desperately seeking God\u2019s love and affection and it is our duty as His children to make sure we are examples of His love to them. I pray that we can look outwardly for opportunities to express His love so that we do not let any of those people down.\nChrist United Methodist - Alternative Gift Market\nPrevious PostChurchSurfer @ Signal Mountain Bible Church: Sunday Morning with the In-LawsNext PostChurchSurfer @ Calvary Church of the Nazarene: Seedlings of the Spirit",

        "raw_content": "by LarryRed LarryRed | Jul 24, 2018 | Cleantech, Energy, government, Local Project, Norwich, public sector, Research, Uncategorized | 1 comment\nBy Alice Godden\nTL;DR The work of our national and local governments, local enterprise partnerships and research institutions to facilitate clean growth must be recognised and they need to be encouraged to do more. Find out more at our Driving Clean Growth Conference at UEA Enterprise Centre on 3rd September 2018.\nEarlier this year the UK government launched a 25 year plan to improve the environment. In 2015 a 5p surcharge to reduce the number of plastic carrier bags being used. Since the introduction of these rules there has been an 83% reduction in carrier bag demand. This is an example of how a simple UK government policy can lead to more responsible use of our resources. In 2008 the UK government issued the Climate Change Act. This was the world\u2019s first legally bound climate change target. This target was to reduce UK greenhouse emissions by 80% from the 1990 baseline from 2050.\nThe Paris Agreement of 2016 is a key example that shows the UK government is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and improving the environment. The key commitment is to keep mean global temperatures within + 2\u00b0C of pre-industrial temperatures. Smart meters to help consumer\u2019s monitor their household energy consumption are being rolled out, and it is hoped that this will be complete by end of 2020. This shows how the UK is moving towards an energy-efficient, lower-carbon centric economy.\nWith an increasing amount of plastic making its way into our waterways and oceans, the government is beginning to crack down on plastic waste. The UK government have launched a \u00a320 million plastics research and innovation fund. With the shocking evidence broadcast on BBC\u2019s Blue Planet II the general public are keen to see changes made to help clean up the oceans, and for policy makers to lead the public sector, so it is not surprised that there was over 130,000 responses from the public that plastic waste is a pressing environmental issue.\nCentre for environment fisheries and aquaculture science (Cefas), based in Lowestoft, is a world leader in solutions for the aquatic environment, food security and biodiversity.\nWith local leaders like this in the region, lobbying could help agree tighter targets for 2020 for central government and actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the future. Adastral-park based Trusted Renewables, are on a mission to utilise ICT to reduce carbon outputs and help the renewable energy sector. Examples of their work include smart-metering projects, and development of intelligent solar panels that can be remotely managed and inform the user of energy outputs.\nThe national Government have made considerable progress in supporting initiatives to grow our national low carbon economy and address some of our most prominent environmental issues.\nYet, it is also important to note that local governments and local enterprise partnerships are also making headway in facilitating regional clean growth.\nTo find out how county councils, research institutes and local enterprise partnerships in the East of England are facilitating regional clean growth, join us at our Driving Cleant Growth Conference on 3rd Septemer at UEA Enterprise Centre.",

        "raw_content": "To evaluate current Republican views on climate, this study performs an inventory of all 51 US Republican senators\u2019 official websites. It analyzes how each member speaks of \"climate change\" and \"energy,\" which types of climate change mitigation policies they support, and whether their answers correlate with the percentage of renewable energy production (REP) in their state. It finds that only two of 51 Republican senators address \"climate change.\" Secondly, a majority (37/51) of Republican senators support REP. Most of those 37 frame their support for renewables in terms of potential economic benefits, like job creation, rather than environmental protection. Of the 14 senators voicing policy preferences for mitigation, 12 support an \"all-of-the-above\" approach, which promotes lowering carbon emissions, creating new energy technology and jobs, and fostering energy independence. Finally, while there are few patterns based on percentage of REP per state, the only two senators who speak of \"climate change\" come from the states with the lowest levels of RE production, which challenges existing literature. These findings suggest that mitigation policy proposals focused on technological innovation to support energy development, alongside opportunities for economic growth and/or job creation, will likely result in greater support from Republicans than policies addressing \"climate change\" itself.",

Away it went.\nCarissa Capeloto, 22, says Sean his posse gang-raped her when she went to his hotel room for a meet-and-greet in 2010. Police didn't find her story credible so criminal charges against the rapper were dropped, but she claims she's suffered insomnia, mood swings and panic attacks since the incident -- resulting in her $5 million civil suit.\nSean doesn't deny having sex with Carissa, but says it was consensual. Regardless, he's a busy guy and didn't want to deal with the messiness of a trial, so while he's still maintaining his innocence, he cut the young woman a check -- albeit one that sources tell TMZ was \"only a fraction of what she asked for.\" In exchange, she's dropping the suit.\nStill, though, he thinks he'd have won if the case had gone to trial. \"Her story wasn't consistent. She told various stories throughout her interviews with police,\" sources close to Kingston told TMZ. \"The medical report had no indications of force.\"\nFiled Under: Sean Kingston",

        "raw_content": "Mitch Hurwitz Reveals ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT Season 4 Details; Says Each Episode Picks Up After Season 3 Finale\nIt\u2019s almost here, folks. New episodes of Arrested Development will be before our eyes in just a few short months, at which point we\u2019ll see what the Bluths have been up to in the six years they\u2019ve been off the air. The entire new season will be released at once on Netflix sometime this spring, and recently the season order was increased from 10 episodes to 13 or 14 episodes.\nWe know that each episode focuses on a single character, and now creator/showrunner Mitch Hurwitz has provided a surprising amount of details regarding the show\u2019s return, including the fact that Jason Bateman\u2019s Michael Bluth is the only character that appears in every episode, and each episode will show what happened to each character directly after the events of the season three finale in 2006. Hit the jump to see what he had to say.\nSpeaking with USA Today, Hurwitz talked about the overall arc of the new episodes:\n\u201cThe bigger story is the family has fallen apart at the start of our show,\u201d Hurwitz says. \u201cThey all went their own way, without Michael holding them together, so they\u2019re left to their own devices, and they\u2019re not the most successful devices.\u201d The season is designed as a \u201cfirst act to what we eventually want to do, which is a big movie,\u201d though there\u2019s no guarantee it will ever get made.\nHe went on to explain how each episode of the show is set up:\n\u201cEach individual (episode) kind of depicts what happens in 2006 as the Bluths fled from the law on the Queen Mary\u201d in what was once the series\u2019 finale, then explains what\u2019s happened to them since and leaves them in the present day, he says.\nHurwitz revealed that Michael Bluth is the only character that appears in every episode, and they\u2019ve been crafting the season with rewatchability in mind:\n\u201cThe show will look very different,\u201d Hurwitz says, and is being assembled as a \u201cvery, very complex puzzle\u201d from scenes shot out of sequence over many months. The true flavor \u201cslowly reveals itself, as the moment you saw in one show will reappear in another show from a different character\u2019s perspective,\u201d he says. \u201cIf people watch it all at once, it will seem like a giant Arrested Development. It\u2019s really tailored for Netflix.\u201d\nAn official launch date has yet to be set, but the entirety of the new season will be released at once on Netflix sometime this spring.\nFOX Exec Kevin Reilly Talks Dual Storylines on GLEE, Pairing BONES and\u2026\nTED Blu-ray Review\n\u2022 Arrested Development \u2022 Entertainment \u2022 Mitch Hurwitz \u2022 Netflix",

        "raw_content": "IMF Analysis Ignores 2010 Money Market Fund Reforms and Exaggerates Run Risk\nThe Securities and Exchange Commission\u2019s comprehensive 2010 reforms for money market funds are a proven success. As ICI research has shown, the reforms strengthened the funds and enhanced financial stability.\nUnfortunately, this success continues to be overlooked or ignored by regulators and academics who persist in raising alarm that money market funds are prone to destabilizing runs.\nFor example, the International Monetary Fund\u2019s recent Global Financial Stability Report speculates that \u201canother run on MMMFs [money market mutual funds] may occur if downside credit risks materialize or securities lending suddenly halts, fueling investors\u2019 fear of MMMFs \u2018breaking the buck\u2019 (that is, failing to maintain the expected stable net asset value).\u201d The IMF states that \u201can outright run would be undesirable and could have systemic consequences if the funding that these institutions provide to banks\u2014directly and through overnight securities lending\u2014dries up.\u201d\nThe IMF\u2019s analysis, however, displays a surprising lack of understanding of the laws governing, and institutional details surrounding, money market funds.\nThe IMF\u2019s analysis does not once mention the SEC\u2019s 2010 reforms to money market funds.\nThe IMF\u2019s analysis invites the reader to assume that money market funds use leverage (they do not) and that they can boost their yields by adding credit risk as desired (in fact, money market fund credit risks are highly constrained by SEC rules).\nThe IMF suggests that money market funds engage in securities lending (they don\u2019t). Money market funds do engage in repurchase agreements to invest in highly liquid securities that are overcollateralized by Treasury and agency securities.\nContrary to the IMF\u2019s analysis, it is extremely unlikely that U.S. banks could face a liquidity crisis caused solely by a run on money market funds. For one, lending by money market funds to U.S. banks is a miniscule part of overall bank liabilities. Also, U.S. banks can borrow from the Federal Reserve if they need liquidity (unlike Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers during the financial crisis).\nIn this blog post, we fill in gaps in the IMF analysis and discuss how the application of bank-like prudential reforms to money market funds could increase risks to financial stability\u2014just the opposite of the IMF\u2019s claims.\nThe 2010 Reforms Reduced Risks\nIn 2010, the SEC undertook sweeping reforms of money market funds. These reforms reduced risks and the potential that a fund might \u201cbreak the dollar.\u201d How so?\nOne new provision is that money market funds are now required to hold substantial amounts of liquid assets to meet redemptions. Taxable funds must hold at least 30 percent of assets in securities that are liquid within a week, and at least 10 percent of assets in daily liquidity. Since those requirements were adopted, money market funds have consistently maintained liquidity well in excess of the minimums; prime money market funds held more than $600 billion in weekly liquid assets during the summer of 2011 (see chart below). As we discussed in \u201cMoney Market Mutual Funds, Risk, and Financial Stability in the Wake of the 2010 Reforms,\u201d these 2010 money market fund reforms allowed prime money market funds to easily meet redemptions associated with the eurozone debt crisis and 2011 debt ceiling debate, and to adjust their portfolios away from European banks most affected by the eurozone debt crisis. As the figure below shows, the level of weekly liquidity held by prime money market funds is more than double the outflows seen during the tumultuous week of September 15, 2008, when Lehman Brothers failed.\nPrime Fund Liquidity Versus Maximum Outflows\nBillions of dollars, May\u2013August 2011\n*Weekly liquid assets include securities with a remaining maturity of five business days, Treasury securities, and agency securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less.\nSources: Investment Company Institute tabulations of SEC Form N-MFP and iMoneyNet data\nAnother reform the SEC enacted in 2010 was to reduce from 90 days to 60 days the maximum weighted average portfolio maturity (WAM) a money market fund can maintain. This change significantly reduced interest rate risk and the likelihood that any money market fund would break the buck. As the chart below shows, it would take an instantaneous rise in interest rates of more than 300 basis points to cause a money market fund with a 60 day WAM to break the buck or to move its mark-to-market value below $0.9950. For a money market fund with a WAM of 45 days, rates would have to increase by 400 basis points in one day for the fund to break the buck.\nSensitivity of a Fund's Mark-to-Market Value to Changes in Interest Rates\n*No longer permitted under Rule 2a-7.\nNote: Figure indicates the resulting mark-to-market value for a given change in interest rates. The initial mark-to-market value is $1.0000.\nSo just how stringent are the SEC\u2019s 2010 reforms of money market funds? Answer: very.\nIn our recent paper, we analyzed how much credit risk prime money market funds took during the summer of 2011 compared to a money market fund that invested only in Treasuries. Using credit default swaps and adjusting for the short maturity of money market fund assets, we calculated an implied annual cost of insuring against default for the average holdings of prime money market funds and a Treasury only money market fund with the same maturity structure. We found that prime money market funds were not much riskier than Treasury-only money market funds based on this analysis (see chart below).\nPrime Money Market Funds Take Minimal Credit Risk\nAnnual cost of insuring against default, basis points\nSources: ICI, SEC, and Bloomberg\nFurther Reform and Money Market Fund Assets\nIn yet another misstatement, the IMF suggests that the assets of money market funds \u201care already shrinking in the low interest rate environment.\u201d In fact, despite low interest rates, investors remain committed to using money market funds, and money market fund assets have been relatively stable over the past two years, ranging from $2.5 to $2.7 trillion in the United States.\nIn our view, the biggest risk to money market fund assets in the United States and Europe is the desire by some regulators to impose bank-like prudential regulations on money market funds. These efforts could lead to a real contraction in the money market fund industry, thus reducing transparency and concentrating systemic risk in large banks or less regulated cash alternatives.\nFor more on money market funds, please visit ICI\u2019s Money Market Funds Resource Center.\nSean Collins is the Senior Director of ICI\u2019s Financial Industry and Analysis and Chris Plantier is an ICI Senior Economist.\nAmericans Support Their 401(k)s\nIt\u2019s pretty obvious to anyone who reads ICI Viewpoints that we believe 401(k) plans are a successful part of an overall retirement system that is working for working\u2014and retired!\u2014Americans. But we\u2019re far from the only ones who think so.

As ICI has detailed, this financial transaction tax (FTT) would have a host of negative consequences, including harm to investors and extraterritoriality.\nTOPICS: ICI GlobalMoney Market FundsTaxes\nThe Facts on Limited Access to Retirement Funds Before Retirement\nOne of the many strengths of the 401(k) system is its flexibility. Policymakers have built into 401(k) plans a careful mix of incentives that help workers save and preserve their savings for retirement\u2014while still allowing limited access to their funds, in case of need, through hardship withdrawals and loans.\n401(k) Plans Work in a Balanced Approach to Retirement Security\nWhat\u2019s the outlook for American workers looking forward to retirement?\nNo Accident: The Strengths of the 401(k) System\nAmericans have saved $5.1 trillion dollars in 401(k) and other defined contribution (DC) retirement plans\u2014plus another $5.4 in individual retirement accounts (IRAs) that are funded largely by assets rolled over from DC and other employer retirement plans.\nIRA Rollovers Serve Investors Well\nBy David Abbey and Sarah Holden\nThe U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is preparing to reintroduce its controversial proposal to revise the long-standing definition of \u201cfiduciary\u201d under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).\nThe Extraordinarily Extraterritorial Proposal to Tax Global Financial Transactions\nThe financial transaction tax (FTT) being considered by several European countries would have an extraordinary extraterritorial effect.\nTreasury\u2019s Miller, Goldman\u2019s Blankfein to Share Insights at ICI\u2019s 2013 GMM\nBy Sandra J.

Fine art.\nExisting law makes no statutory provision for the protection of an artist or the public against the defacement, mutilation, alteration, or destruction of a work of fine art in the lawful possession of one other than the artist.\nThis bill would prohibit any person, except an artist who owns and possesses a work of fine art of his own creation, from intentionally committing or authorizing another to intentionally commit, as specified, any physical defacement, mutilation, alteration, or destruction of a work of fine art. A person who frames, conserves, or restores a work of fine art also would be prohibited from committing, or authorizing another to commit, any such acts by the use of gross negligence.\nThis bill would permit the artist to seek specified judicial relief in a court action to enforce the rights and duties created by the bill.\nThis bill would provide that the court action must be commenced within a prescribed period following the action or its discovery, whichever is longer.\nThis bill would provide that the enforcement of prescribed rights and duties by the artist or his heir, legatee, or personal representative shall apply only to proscribed action which takes place prior to the 50th anniversary of the artist's death. This bill would not apply (1) where an artist has waived his rights by an instrument in writing expressly so providing or, (2) where the work of fine art cannot be removed from a building without substantial physical defacement, mutilation, alteration, or destruction of such work and there has been no reservation of such rights in an instrument of writing signed by the building owner and properly recorded.

Section 987 is added to the Civil Code to read:\n987.(a) The Legislature hereby finds and declares that the physical alteration or destruction of fine art, which is an expression of the artist's personality, is detrimental to the artist's reputation, and artists therefore have an interest in protecting their works of fine art against such alteration or destruction; and that there is also a public interest in preserving the integrity of cultural and artistic creations.\n(1) \"Artist\" means the individual or individuals who create a work of fine art.\n(2) \"Fine art\" means an original painting, sculpture, or drawing of recognized quality, but shall not include work prepared under contract for commercial use by its purchaser.\n(3) \"Person\" means an individual, partnership, corporation, association or other group, however organized.\n(4) \"Frame\" means to prepare, or cause to be prepared, a work of fine art for display in a manner customarily considered to be appropriate for a work of fine art in the particular medium.\n(5) \"Restore\" means to return, or cause to be returned, a deteriorated or damaged work of fine art as nearly as is feasible to its original state or condition, in accordance with prevailing standards.\n(6) \"Conserve\" means to preserve, or cause to be preserved, work of fine art by retarding or preventing deterioration or damage through appropriate treatment in accordance with prevailing standards in order to maintain the structural integrity to the fullest extent possible in an unchanging state.\n(1) No person, except an artist who owns and possesses a work of fine art which the artist has created, shall intentionally commit, or authorize the intentional commission of, any physical defacement, mutilation, alteration, or destruction of a work of fine art.\n(2) In addition to the prohibitions contained in paragraph (1), no person who frames, conserves, or restores a work of fine art shall commit, or authorize the commission of, any physical defacement, mutilation, alteration, or destruction of a work of fine art by any act constituting gross negligence. For purposes of this section, the term \"gross negligence\" shall mean the exercise of so slight a degree of care as to justify the belief that there was an indifference to the particular work of fine art.\n(d) The artist shall retain at all times the right to claim authorship, or, for just and valid reason, to disclaim authorship of his or her work of fine art.\n(e) To effectuate the rights created by this section, the artist may commence an action to recover or obtain any of the following:\n(1) Injunctive relief.\n(3) Punitive damages. In the event that punitive damages are awarded, the court shall, in its discretion, select an organization or organizations engaged in charitable or educational activities involving the fine arts in California to receive such damages.\n(4) Reasonable attorneys' and expert witness fees.\n(5) Any other relief which the court deems proper\n(f) In determining whether a work of fine art is of recognized quality, the trier of fact shall rely on the opinions of artists, art dealers, collectors of fine art, curators of art museums, and other persons involved with the creation or marketing of fine art.\n(g) The rights and duties created under this section:\n(1) Shall, with respect to the artist, or if any artist is deceased, his heir legatee, or personal representative, exist until the 50th anniversary of the death of such artist.\n(2) Shall exist in addition to any other rights and duties which may now or in the future be applicable.\n(3) Except as provided in paragraph (l) of subdivision (h), may not be waived except by an instrument in writing expressly so providing which is signed by the artist.\n(1) If a work of fine art cannot be removed from a building without substantial physical defacement, mutilation, alteration, or destruction of such work, the rights and duties created under this section, unless expressly reserved by an instrument in writing signed by the owner of such building and properly recorded, shall be deemed waived.

        "raw_content": "While there have been many attacks against churches reported since Morsi's removal from power on 3 July, the most comprehensive wave of attacks was triggered by the dispersal of the two main pro-Morsi sit-ins' in Cairo and Giza on 14 August, which left hundreds dead and thousands injured.\nThe ECPPS, a liberal Egyptian NGO, investigated the 14 August attacks on churches, Coptic associations, and Coptic-owned property, releasing their findings in a September report entitled \"Oppressed under different regimes -- Egypt's Christians between sectarian violence and state negligence.\"\n\"On the morning of 14 August, residents of several Upper Egyptian cities and villages woke up to loud calls emanating from certain mosques to attack Copts whom they said aided the Egyptian police in waging a war on Islam and killing protesters in Cairo,\" ECPPS researcher Mohamed Abdel-Wahab announced during a press conference for the report on Monday.\nThe degree of damage\nA stark example of the violence launched against Copts on that day comes from Dalga, a town in Upper Egypt's Minya governorate with a population of 150,000; 21,000 of whom are Copts.\nTwenty-seven Coptic houses were attacked in Dalga, expelling 62 families as a result, Abdel-Wahab reported. He added that many of the homes -- in addition to the possessions located inside them -- were burnt, leading to serious financial losses for the families.\nEgyptian security forces carried out a raid in Minya on 16 September, arresting over 50 alleged radical Islamists in Dalga, which had become an Islamist stronghold during the past month.\nAbdel-Wahab, an economic researcher for the report, said individual financial losses in the six Upper Egypt governorates visited by the investigation team ranged from a few hundred to six million Egyptian pounds.\nThe report concluded that 28 churches and monasteries were attacked in the governorates of Fayoum, Beni Suef, Minya, Assyut and Sohag, as well as five Christian associations in Minya and Fayoum.\nAttacks on Coptic property were estimated to have damaged 122 shops -- a majority of which were robbed before being destroyed or burnt -- in addition to 51 houses and five schools. A miniscule percentage of the damaged property belonged to Muslims, which the report said was targeted by mistake.\nCopts, fearing aggression on the streets, were essentially under house arrest in the towns where the attacks occurred, Abdel-Wahab said.\nTwo Copts were killed in Dalga, one of whom was decapitated and reportedly left on the street for ten days after he attempted to defend his home against an attack with a firearm, the report said.\nNo state protection\nAhmed Ragab, an ECPPS legal researcher who travelled south with Abdel-Wahab to compile the report, said that an Egyptian state presence during the attacks against Copts was almost \"non-existent.\"\n\"When citizens called emergency lines, there was either no answer or the firemen told callers that they would come only on the condition that 'popular protection' was provided for them, fearing they would be assaulted by the attack's perpetrators,\" Ragab said in the Monday presser.\nOn the rare occasions that fire trucks would arrive, they did not have enough water, Ragab said, stressing that in many cases there were only enough security forces to protect their stations and that they would not come out to aid the victims.\nMany police stations and government buildings were also targeted after the sit-ins' dispersal. The ECPPS report said that 26 government buildings were attacked.\nRagab also criticised the Egyptian government for failing to provide compensation for the attacks.\nRagab said some of the damaged institutions fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Social Solidarity, which has specific funds for this purpose but has not yet moved to repair the damages.\nOrganised attacks\nThe report did not contain information regarding the attack's instigators, although researchers told Ahram Online that the perpetrators' names are known among the victims, who will not disclose them out of fear.\n\"We leave charges to be made by the police and the prosecution,\" Ragab said with a tinge of irony following his criticism of the state's general inaction to protect victims during the attacks.\nAbdel-Wahab, however, told Ahram Online that the attacks were probably organised.\n\"Most of the attacks took place in a similar manner and at a particular time,\" he said. \"In most of the cases we investigated, owners of burnt property said the main water lines were cut to prevent putting out the fires, and that seemingly coordinated groups would create road blocks close to the property to prevent any help from arriving.\"\nThe burnt churches include the Virgin Mary Church, a 1600-year-old church in Dalga, as well as other churches dating back centuries, the report said.\nThe violence in Upper Egypt has been attributed to supporters of Morsi, who was removed from the presidency by the military after mass protests against him.\nThe Muslim Brotherhood -- the group from which Morsi hails -- have denied any connections to sectarian violence in the country, despite the fact that their sit-ins demanding Morsi's return to power hosted many Islamist figures who used sectarian rhetoric to threaten anti-Morsi Copts.\nThe National Coalition in Support of Legitimacy, the Brotherhood-led pro-Morsi alliance, were outspoken against the 16 September raids on the \"free\" Dalga residents, which they positioned as another symptom of the military 'coup.'",

A victory dance was just what the doctor ordered!\nListening to loud, raucous music has a way of soothing my soul, centering me, and recharging my batteries. Running on empty is not conducive to the flow of creative juices. Music is medicinal for me in that regard. Songs with hard-driving beats that grab me by the balls and don't let go are what energize my soul and keep my Thought Trains thundering across my mind. Who could ask for anything more?\nWho did I jam out to? My old favs; The Rolling Stones, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Motorhead, Iced Earth, Bob Dylan, The Moody Blues, Janis Joplin, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, James Brown, Guns & Roses, Charlie Daniels, Frank Zappa, The Who, The Kinks, Van Halen(not Van Hagar), Kiss, Rush, The Doors, ZZ Top, Tom Petty, Rob Zombie, Jimi Hendrix(Yes, I hear Jimi), Metallica, The Dropkick Murphys, Lynyrd Skynryrd, AC/DC, Etta James, Muddy Waters, and a few other goodies, I'm sure. It was a good variety. I do enjoy a good mix, after all, variety is the spice of life!\nHere is a snippet from one of my works in progress. It is part of a story about a female assassin:\nForty or fifty yards from the dune, the air felt crisp like back in my tent. Our breaths hung on the coolness like clothes drying on a line. The sand crunched as if it were packed snow with each step. Starlight glistened off the sand, and shimmered along the air. At least that was what I took the particles floating about to be. For all I knew, I mistook swirling grains of sand to be that. In any event, it was a sight to behold. Normally, I wasn't given to being impressed by such visual stimuli. As a woman, emotions moved me much more than any sights.\nThe three men each knelt down on one knee, holding the hilts of their blades. They sunk the tips of their swords into the ground and wept. I thought, \"What pussies!\"\nI empathized with their outburst of emotion. There was something awe-inspiring going on, but I would never let these men see my emotional side. I had been trained not to show that sort of thing because it would be taken as weakness and could place me in a disadvantageous position.\nAlas, time to call it a night. See you all in the light of the moon at some later point in time. May the shadows prevent The Light from conspiring against you!\nIt's alive! This website has finally come to life in the way I envisioned a little more than a year ago. What a long, strange trip it's been!\nAlthough Darkness is a concept, it is an idea I view in a very personal way. Writers would call that personification. I recognize Darkness for what it is, in all its glory, as more than a person, but as a sentient something that holds The Truths of The Cosmos. Indeed, these are interesting times. Living in interesting times is not a curse, I promise you that!\nThe puzzle pieces of my plan to bring my dark art into The Light is beginning to take shape. This website is the nexus between my Amazon Author Page, my Twitter Profile Page and feed, and now, my Patreon Creator Page. Ain't technology a beautiful thing to behold!\nGreat big, dark hugs go out to my son-in-law, my family, my friends, my three editors, and all of my followers for their kind and generous support of this labor of love of mine! I couldn't have come this far in such a short period of time without all of their love, encouragement, hard work, and kinship. There is no time for me to rest on my laurels.\nThere is much more work that needs to be accomplished and only so much night for it to be done. Like a vampyre, I sleep the day through, except when duty calls. Unfortunately, I must have a day job to pay the bills, but I limit the time I must be exposed to The Light to as little as possible. Dark shades and black clothes do much to protect from the sun's terrible rays. One day, my day job won't be necessary, and I will be able to exist exclusively from dusk to dawn. Dare to dream!\nTa-ta, for now. Responsibility calls out to me, and I must answer the call. Think dark thoughts and good things will fall at your feet!\nLast night Patreon approved my Creator Account. With my new-improved website just about ready to go live, it is full-speed ahead with my vision of making my dark, fantasy ideas accessible for consumption by my fans and all interested artists. It has been a long and winding road. I love it when a plan comes together.\nThere is no doubt this project of mine will soar to heights I could only dream about six months ago. My Twitter platform grows every day, my Amazon Author Page has been a huge success, and now, I have started to build a Patreon platform. Not bad for a guy who began this trek at the age of twelve with the gift from my sister of a magic box of endless possibilities. My goal of integrating my content on the internet is quickly coming to fruition. What next?\nSo many possibilities with which to play, and only so much time to discover and hone them. One step at a time, is what I must constantly remind myself. I can't run until I learn to walk. Technology offers so many opportunities. In that regard, I feel like a kid in a candy store, unsure of what to grab first. There is so much for this Ludite to learn. I've only touched the tip of the iceberg. I will get there, and my first love, Fantasy, will be the benefactor. My chosen art form will be better off for all of this expended effort. No doubt about that!\nWell, I must get back to the grindstone. Dawn is rearing her head, and as a better poet than me once said, \"I have so many miles to go before I sleep.\" Until we meet again, may fantasy ideas crash upon the shores of your mind with pleasant enthusiasm!",

        "raw_content": "No Trekkies here?\n\u201cHannibal\u201d creator Bryan Fuller has found his next mission: showrunner and co-creator of CBS\u2019 new \u201cStar Trek\u201d series.\nThe new series is set to bow on CBS in January 2017, then move to CBS\u2019 All Access digital subscription service. It will be the first original series to launch on a broadcast network but air primarily on an SVOD service.\nhttps://variety.com/2016/tv/news/star-t ... 201700606/\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href);return false;\nRe: \u2018Star Trek\u2019: Bryan Fuller Named Showrunner of New Series\nI can offer no opinion on this, so I asked my coworker for his thoughts:\nIt's good news. The only previously announced producer was Alex Kurtzman, who wrote such cinematic tours-de-force as the Transformers movies and the reboot Star Trek movies. Between that and CBS making it a flagship series for their streaming service, I wasn't interested in the series.\nBut Bryan Fuller has credibility. He's written extensively for DS9 (and Voyager, but I won't hold it against him), and created and/or produced Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls (a favorite of mine) and Hannibal. I think he knows what he's doing.\nThe most requested thing fans want from the new series is \"set it in the prime universe,\" i.e., the one depicted in TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY, not Abrams's alternate reality. That would be my preference, and with Bryan Fuller it might actually happen. But I'm guessing Kurtzman and CBS will want to continue the adventures of the alternate universe. Probably in the same time period, probably ship-based, probably with lots of young and attractive people who can cross over into the movie franchise. If I had to guess they'll be academy cadets or recent graduates who are elite somehow and are dispatched to deal with some dark and vague threat to the imagination. I've never seen the TV show Quantico but I'm guessing it will be Quantico in space.\nAlternate universe: Definitely. Young, attractive, ambitious people: Definitely. And that means there will be a grizzled veteran, a Bruce Greenwood type who is tough and hard on his people but secretly cares about and feels responsible for them. And that means probably cadets or an elite strike force of some kind. Serialized stories are the new normal, so that means some kind of mysterious, possibly mythical threat that isn't big enough or tangible enough to throw the whole starfleet at it...yet. So send your elite strike force of young, attractive people, overseen by the tough and grizzled veteran, and give plenty of opportunities for conflict and romance. Bam, new series.\nAdd a dash of cameos and fresh takes on familiar characters and you can get at least five seasons out of it.\nPostby Sarah \u00bb Wed Feb 10, 2016 8:01 pm\nI used to watch Star Trek with my dad a lot (mostly TNG, some DS9 and VOY).\nI'm not picky though and will give pretty much anything a solid shot - I liked the first Star Trek reboot movie.

        "raw_content": "It's Time For YouTubers And Twitch Streamers To Organise\nIllustration by Angelica Alzona Unique to the digital age is the video content creation industry, one where employees are \"users\" and employers are \"platforms.\" In it, workers aren't owed squat. When there are tech issues, they can visit th\nUnique to the digital age is the video content creation industry, one where employees are \"users\" and employers are \"platforms.\" In it, workers aren't owed squat. When there are tech issues, they can visit the support page. When there are platform updates, a lot of the time, the press knows first. Full-time YouTubers and Twitch streamers, workers whose livelihoods depend on these platforms, are weed-whacking their way through the nascent industry's first labour issues. And while it's a new industry, there's one old, time-tried solution to users' grievances: organisation.\nIt might seem absurd to suggest that full-time YouTubers and Twitch streamers have it all that rough. After all, they make a living playing video games or filming make-up tutorials. But as we've seen on several occasions, by hitching their wagons to two giant corporations \u2014 YouTube and Twitch, and by extension, Google and Amazon \u2014 these video-makers are opening themselves up to all sorts of risk.\nOn top of the 60-hour workweeks common among internet creators, and the myriad of problems we've seen stem from that, video platform companies can evade responsibility for their workers' livelihoods with a simple sleight of hand \u2014 they're providing a service, not a job opportunity.\nBut YouTubers' revenue streams can disappear without warning. This month, YouTubers are facing a crisis after brands pulled their ads from the platform and videos labeled \"inappropriate\" were demonetized. YouTubers can appeal through a somewhat enigmatic process.\nThe financial mess is affecting YouTubers as big as PewDiePie, who has 55 million subscribers, and many claim they're making a fraction of what they did just weeks ago. Few have a clear idea of what's going on. Among YouTubers, there is widespread foreboding and insecurity. It's not their first flirtation with financial risk; over the last few months, mysteriously disappearing view and subscriber counts caused widespread panic that lasted months.\nA lapse in communication or a quick adjustment to technology can seriously mess up full-time content creators' finances. Twitch is traditionally communicative with its partnered streamers. But, sometimes, its tech can take a toll on users' pocketbooks. Even something as small as limiting Twitch streamers to one \"Community\" hashtag instead of two can radically decrease viewership, and therefore, cost them money.\nThird-party \"creators' networks\" capitalise on the problem of communication by promising shady management deals that, sometimes, repossess streamers' channels or skim off 50% of revenue. It happens often, in part because content creators aren't talking to each other about pay rate norms or what toxic contracts look like. Many are young. And most sign NDAs, making it a breach of contract to share information.\nThe people who make videos and stream games can't just cross their fingers and hope that YouTube and Twitch will address the human issues they face working full-time on their platforms. These workers need more control over their livelihoods. They need to take action and organise \u2014 that is, to come together and collectively argue for better rights and protections \u2014 so Silicon Valley giants stop exploiting their work. It needs to be democratic and it needs to happen soon.\n\"With multi-billion-dollar companies who have the interest of the company at the forefront, the only effective strategy is to come together collectively and push back against that,\" Justin Molito, director of organising for the Writers Guild of America East, told me. On YouTube and Twitch, there are tens of thousands of \"partnered\" creators, or users who receive checks from these companies' ad deals. Alone, most are powerless, but together, they would have a bigger, more persuasive voice.\n\"My experience is that, when people come together around a set of demands and resolve to see those demands met, the appropriate corporation will figure out how to structure things,\" Molito said.\nThis is an entirely new type of labour. So the logistics of organising are a little foggy. Typically, guilds and unions can offer legal protections for workers. The problem here is that, unlike writers, YouTubers and Twitch streamers have never been employed by the corporations behind their platforms. And, likely, they never will be.\nAccording to U.S. labour laws, a company \"employs\" a worker if it controls the time, place and conditions of work; pays for all aspects of work; and has a formal and exclusive relationship with that worker. Needless to say, YouTubers and Twitch streamers don't fit into that category. They licence their content to these platforms.\nMona Ibrahim, senior associate at the Interactive Entertainment Law Group, explained that \"the reason Twitch streamers don't qualify as employees is because they have control over their work product and the manner in which they deliver that product, they pay for their own expenses, and the agreement is non-exclusive and commission based as opposed to an hourly rate or salary.\"\nWork in 2017 looks a lot different than it did decades ago, and in three years, half of workers will be independent contractors, like YouTubers and streamers. Perhaps it's time for labour laws to expand to accommodate the modern generation.\nIn the meantime, there are still plenty of logistics to sort out. But the blueprint for organisation already exists in the Internet Creators Guild, which is led by distinguished YouTubers. This guild, which charges dues around $US5 ($7)/month, promises to help professional YouTube creators organise, although it's not currently able to offer legal protections. Collective bargaining is not a near-term goal for them.\nIt's just for YouTubers and is still in its planning phases, but its vision is promising. Over email, ICG executive director Laura Chernikoff told me that they currently have 800 members. \"ICG was built to address situations related to the power imbalance between a disparate workforce of independent professional creators and the major platforms they work within,\" Chernikoff said, \"as well as stakeholders like brands, talent representation, and other parts of the industry.\" Eventually, they hope to produce reports on what influences brand deals, share information for standardised contracts, and forge communication channels with platforms.\nSince the ICG is currently only designed for YouTubers (and doesn't currently have collective bargaining ambitions) Twitch streamers have to find other options. They could wait until the ICG offers support for them or organise with their own association, with or without YouTubers.\nA few big streamers, ideally ones who have already spoken out against labour conditions, would need to take initiative and launch a guild. That's the steering committee. It must include big-name streamers who already have a lot of leverage, and ideally, pre-existing human connections at these platforms. That way, a direct path of communication already exists. And otherwise, smaller channels will be afraid to join.\nAfter collecting a few hundred streamers who support the initiative, this Twitch guild steering committee could establish a nonprofit trade association. They could incorporate it, if they chose. Once it's organised, the steering committee could ask for dues from streamers or YouTubers who wish to be represented.\nThose creators can communicate their needs through private channels and determine common goals. Then, when it appears that a problem is brewing or must be addressed, the steering committee can come together and try to find a solution. If the problem is not resolved, members can threaten to strike or go to the nuclear option: transferring their businesses to other streaming and video services, like Microsoft's Beam or Vimeo. (Granted, YouTube and Twitch have something of a monopoly here, which makes it all the more important for YouTubers and Twitch streamers to organise and try to win some leverage.)\nRight now, internet content creators have little sway over the platforms that allow them to make a living \u2014 unless those creators are already huge. Bigger partnered channels may have access to a \"partner manager,\" or customer support for specific creators. When YouTube tech goes awry, or advertisers pull out, those big channels might receive an explanation. Smaller channels won't. Hank Green, who runs the convention VidCon and helped found the Internet Creators Guild, told me that he's had great access to YouTube, even on the weekends. He's been making videos on it for ten years.\nHe says it isn't fair that others don't have the same access. \"I'll talk to people I know who have huge channels but don't have that same productive relationship,\" he said. \"They don't know it's an option or they're newer to the platform.\"\nCreators' networks have sprung up to fill that communication gap, but they have proven to be flawed, sometimes taking advantage of streamers and YouTubers by forcing them to sign imbalanced contracts that offer no real advocacy. For YouTubers, even signing with the Disney-owned Maker Studios can be risky. Several Maker-signed YouTubers I spoke with described regular late or withheld payments and poor communication channels.\nOn Twitch, streamers regularly sign imbalanced brand deals or sponsorship contracts that majorly screw them over. \"We've definitely seen contracts where streamers would lose ownership of their channel in the process of signing it,\" said Omeed Dariani, CEO of the Online Performers Group, a boutique management company for content creators.\n\"The sort of stuff where, if a lawyer saw that in a contract they'd flip the table. No one should sign that kind of thing! But a lot of the time, it's just a kid [signing it].\"\nWhat would make a guild more trustworthy than a creators' network? Money. Organisations like Maker have financial stakes in streamers and YouTubers. Those organisations also have pre-baked relationships with Twitch and YouTube, which means that their interests won't always align with the people they represent. A guild, organised and run by the workers themselves, would be able to properly and earnestly represent YouTubers' and Twitch streamers' agendas when dealing with the powerful companies behind these platforms.\nOnline content creation needs to be a more sustainable job. Because it is a job. And no labour standards protect YouTubers or streamers because their industry is only now being recognised as such. Creators' lack of physical presence works against them in ways that teachers and coal miners never have to face. If they organised as a collective bargaining unit, it would set the tone for how Silicon Valley giants treat independent digital content creators in the years to come. As VidCon's Hank Green told me: \"The thing YouTubers and online content creators have that coal miners never had is the biggest megaphone in the world.\"\nToy Time Plays With DC Icons Justice League",

        "title": "High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDRI or HDR)",
        "raw_content": "High-dynamic-range imaging (HDRI or HDR) is a set of techniques used in imaging and photography to reproduce a greater dynamic range of luminosity than possible using standard digital imaging or photographic techniques. The purpose of this is to attempt to present the human eye with a similar range of luminance as that which, through the eye-brain system, we are familiar with in everyday life. The human eye, through adaptation of the iris (and other methods) is able to constantly adjust to the huge dynamic changes ubiquitous in our environment and the brain is able to continuously interpret this information so that most of us are able to see in a wide range of light conditions; most cameras on the other hand are not.\nAdditionally, in view of the limitations of printing and monitors, acquiring an HDR image is only half the story, one must also develop methods of observing the results. Consequently we have firstly, the methods of obtaining the information in the first place and secondly, the methods of rendering that information to be available to a standard monitor or printing device- this is tone mapping.\nHDR images can represent a greater range of luminance levels than can be achieved using more 'traditional' methods. Images such as those containing many real-world scenes, from very bright direct sunlight to extreme shade or very faint nebulae. It is often achieved by capturing and then combining several different exposures of the same subject matter. Non-HDR cameras take photographs with a limited exposure range, resulting in the loss of detail in bright or dark areas.\nThe two primary types of HDR images are computer renderings and images resulting from merging multiple low-dynamic-range (LDR) or standard-dynamic-range (SDR) photographs. HDR images can also be acquired using special image sensors, like oversampled binary image sensor. Tone mapping methods, which reduce overall contrast to facilitate display of HDR images on devices with lower dynamic range, can be applied to produce images with preserved or exaggerated local contrast for artistic effect.",

They are called pazos in the Galician language (yes, they have their own language up here) and were built as country manors by ostentatious Spaniards who made a fortune in the New World and then came home to show off their wealth. We visited one, called Pazo Bai\u00f3n, that is now a winery and event center.\nPazo Bai\u00f3n was built by Adolph Fojo, an emigrant who made his wealth in the U.S., back in the 1920s. It was then purchased in the 80s by the notorious drug dealer, Oubi\u00f1a Laureano, and his wife, Esther Lago, before being seized by the Spanish government in 1995. After that, the 287 acres of prime Albari\u00f1o vineyards were leased by Vionta which is owned by the massive Spanish winemaker Freixenet. After years of legal wrangling (when Spain tried to sell the property in 2007, the daughters of Oubi\u00f1a Laureano claimed that the palace was part of their inheritance following the death of their mother, who died in a car crash), the pazo and the vineyards were sold to Condes de Albarei, a wine collective, in June, 2008 for a little over 15 million euros.\nOriginally, Freixenet was determined to continue producing Vionta wines from the estate, but the new owners have decided that the entire property needs to go into rehab to cleanse itself of its drug connection. The pazo is now the centerpiece of an effort to increase wine tourism in the Rias Baixas region.\nTags: Rias Baixas, Spanish wine",

Our solution, therefore, was to convert the console from using lit pushbutton stops to elegant drawknobs. We also installed a new combination-action from Syndyne Inc., who also supplied the engravings. The drawknob terraces, nameboard, piston rails and toe bolsters are new, made from cherry as were the old components, and we were able to use the original console shell and the manuals, which are the original manuals from the original Moller organ which was installed in the early twentieth century. The key-cheeks, having been made new by Steiner-Reck, were thinned to allow more space for drawknobs, given a more elegant \u201cS\u201d profile, and finished with a natural oil finish to bring out the dark character of the natural walnut. We also provided a custom made adjustable bench.\nWe continue to perform regular maintenance on the instrument.",

It does not mean no one had ever celebrated this feast since Joshua\u2019s day. Nehemiah\u2019s celebration was unique in many ways. First, it was commemorated by \u201cthe whole congregation\u201d (Neh. 8:17). Second, it was celebrated with \u201cgreat gladness\u201d (v. 17). Third, it was celebrated with a Biblethon, that is, with continual Bible reading for one week. Fourth, they celebrated it exactly as Moses had commanded, with a restored priesthood and temple (8:18; cf. 12:1ff). Nothing like this had occurred since Joshua\u2019s day.",

        "raw_content": "A mathematical glange at the \u201cHistory of the Square\u201d\nConsider a random quadrangle, i.e. a 4-sided closed figure with \u2013in general\u2013 unequal angles and sides. Join the mid-points of its four sides. Strangely enough, a regular parallelogram results! The random aspect here (and elsewhere) contains its own symmetry. Harmony is revealed in the most unlikely places!\nDimitris Tragkas\u2019s geometrical drawings can only be understood as an organic whole. The same also goes for his accompanying phrases that constitute an integral extension of these drawings. This is not a case of cubism but, rather, anti-cubism, if such a term existed. The \u201cactive\u201d geometry in this case is but an allegory of the archetypal \u201csquare\u201d. Schematically, the square\u2019s convolution over time. That is exactly why Dimitris Tragkas\u2019s work is also \u201cholographic\u201d. In other words, if some part of it is extracted, it remains the same\u2026 but more \u201chazy\u201d. Naturally, there are \u2013as always\u2013 different individual references by each spectator-reader, which cover a whole spectrum of reactions: the pre-eminence of the severe form, various interpretations or over-interpretations, geometry\u2019s raison d\u2019\u00eatre, etc., etc. However, all these comprise precisely \u201cthe History (or the myth) of the Square\u201d, as it is unfolds by the artist.\nDimitris Tragkas attenuates the severity of the four equal lines and angles (the quadrangle), and introduces us to the plasticity of its corresponding topology. This self-transformation also brings to the fore basic algebraic structures (geometry\u2019s twin sisters), such as e.g. automorphisms of certain shapes, the symmetries of crystals, the sonata form and fugue in music, the regularity of numbers, etc. This profound isomorphism between Algebra and Geometry has been discovered as well as demonstrated by the mathematician Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665) and the philosopher-mathematician Rene Descartes (1596-1650), the Father of Analytic Geometry, in which they inextricably link the continuous (Geometry) with the discrete (Algebra). The reflections, inversions and other symmetries are part of the algebra of the \u201cimprisoned\u201d square and act as to enrich our perception by their sub(un)conscious correlations.\nThe artist here introduces high-school memories, reveals associations, highlights the saga of the contested square, sweeps us along to such an extent of deconstructivity that our high-school geometry loses its innocence. He depicts an enchanting but also illusive reflection, like a secret that everyone knows. So, here are the so-called two sides of the coin: on the one hand, the pure Platonic square and, on the other, the trace of its history as it unfolds by the drawings of Dimitris Tragkas.\nAlexis Bacopoulos, 2000\n(Prologue for the book of Dimitris Tragkas \u201cHistory of the Square\u201d)",

        "title": "The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong: As Time Goes By",
        "raw_content": "Recorded Early 1943\nWritten by Herman Hupfield\nRecorded at an Unknown Location\nLouis Armstrong, trumpet, vocal; Frank Galbreath, Shelton Hemphill, Bernard Flood, trumpet; George Washington, James Whitney, Henderson Chambers, trombone; Rupert Cole, Joe Hayman, alto saxophone; Prince Robinson, Joe Garland, tenor saxophone; Luis Russell, piano; Lawrence Lusice, guitar; Ted Turgis, bas; Chick Morrison, drums\nCurrently available on CD: It's on the hard-to-find Ambassador disc At The Cotton Club\nI wouldn't exactly call it common, but there's a misperception that exists that has resulted in some people believing Louis Armstrong recorded \"As Time Goes By.\" It used to drive me nuts on YouTube, because sometimes I'd do my daily Pops search and would get a result \"As Time Goes By - Louis Armstrong.\" Of course, when I'd click on the link, the soothing voice of Dooley Wilson would trickle out of my speakers. Dooley's great...but do people really think it's Louis Armstrong? (Apparently so; if you go to YouTube and just start typing the phrase \"As Time Goes By,\" the site offers other popular searches with those words. Number four: \"As Time Goes By Louis Armstrong.\" Number eight? \"As Time Goes By Dooley Wilson.\")\nLet's get it out of the way once and for all: that's not Louis Armstrong in Casablanca, folks. If you've heard the famous version of the tune from said movie, that's not Louis Armstrong. Louis Armstrong recorded many, many standards in the studio and though \"As Time Goes By\" would have been an apt choice, it was never to be. Louis Armstrong never recorded tune.\nThere. I'm glad that's out of the way. Of course, I didn't say that Louis Armstrong never performed the tune...\nIt turns out that a single, solitary Armstrong performance of the Herman Hupfield classic has survived. The location? Unknown. The date? Unknown, probably early 1943. It was a broadcast but on what network? We'll never know. But we do have two patron saints of Pops to thank for its survival. First, Jack Bradley, a glorious human being and a supreme champion of Pops, who found an acetate of this recorded at a Cape Cod flea market! (Seriously, what are the odds? Jack's from Cape Cod! Of all the gin joints and flea markets in the world, how did this acetate end up in that one?) Once found, my dear departed friend G\u00f6sta H\u00e4ggl\u00f6f issued it publicly on the very hard-to-find Ambassador disc At The Cotton Club. And now, because my Itunes shuffle landed on it, I'll be able to showcase it for the world to hear. I'll apologize for the sound quality but after the initial burst of static, it becomes fairly listenable. Enough from me, give it a listen:\nIsn't that lovely? You might be thinking, \"That was a great performance. Why didn't Armstrong record it?\" Simple: American Federation of Musicians recording ban (hiss, boo) that didn't allow any union musicians to make records from August 1942 into 1944. In Louis Armstrong's case, he not only didn't record anything for Decca during the ban, but even when it was over, his one and only Decca session of 1944 was rejected by the label while the entire year of 1945 only saw one single Armstrong record hit the market.\nThus, it was lean times for Pops's recording career but his day-to-day life remained just as busy as ever, with constant touring, broadcasts and film appearances. Numerous broadcasts exist from this period and they find business-as-usual for Pops. Even without a record label breathing down his neck, Armstrong still kept up with the music world, performing arrangements of pop tunes like \"I Couldn't Sleep a Wink Last Night\" and \"Blues in the Night,\" as well as other popular numbers like \"Caldonia\" and \"Kalamazoo.\" \"As Time Goes By\" was as popular as they come and was a natural fit for Pops so an arrangement was made and who knows how often he featured it during the war years. (Interestingly, Casablanca was released during the ban so Dooley WIlson couldn't even record a single of it at the time either!). And that's the backstory...\nArmstrong's performance of the song doesn't require a lot of verbiage. The announcer calls it \"the old musical charmer with the great new success,\" which makes sense since the song hadn't made any impact until Casablanca, even though Hupfield wrote it in 1931 for the Broadway musical Everybody's Welcome. The tempo is faster than almost any other version of the song, but Armstrong thrives on it. Armstrong's in great voice, without a trace of gravel, while the melody allows him to show off his tenor range. He pays the melody a lot of respect--you can hear him smiling at the end of the bridge--though he indulges in a slight bit of scat near the end. The band modulates, allowing Pops to get his chops together for one of his patented one-chorus explorations. He phrases it much as he sang it, kind of in a slightly rushed manner probably due to the slightly accelerated tempo, saving any improvisations for the spaces in between the melody. One or two notes are a little bit cracked, more evidence that it wasn't easy being Louis Armstrong, but overall it's a very fluent solo. He ends the first half with a very relaxed phrases before something of a rarity: he holds a LOW note for a change and lets it ring with his trademark vibrato.\nIt would have been great to hear him play the bridge, but Armstrong passes the ball to the alto saxophone of I believe Rupert Cole, who plays it in something of a schmaltzy manner. A very neat moment occurs when Armstrong reenters as drummer Chick Morrison mirrors Armstrong phrase with a perfectly placed shuffle on the toms. Instead of immediately shooting out the lights, Armstrong continues his respectful treatment of the melody right up to and including the end of the chorus. The arrangement, however, calls for Armstrong to close by reprising the song's final eight bars and here Armstrong finally repeats a few high notes and ends on a very nice high Bb (Armstrong plays it in Eb, so Bb is the fifth. Usually, ending on a fifth doesn't quite sound resolved but Armstrong frequently did it and it always sounded great).\nSo there, finally, is Louis Armstrong performing \"As Time Goes By.\" Nothing earth-shattering but I think it's a very nice performance to add to the pantheon of great versions of the song. So next time YouTube steers you wrongly to another Dooley-Wilson-Advertised-As-Louis-Armstrong performance, just come back here for the real thing.",

        "title": "My new stock purchasing rules - Dividend Life",
        "raw_content": "I\u2019m changing my individual stock purchasing rules, which, to be honest, I haven\u2019t paid too much attention to this year. Here\u2019s an explanation of what I\u2019m changing and why.\nWhen I first started investing, I wanted a lot of mechanical rules around my stock purchases. I looked at dividend yield and expected growth, price / earnings and tried to diversify across different market sectors or industries. Originally I was aiming for about 50 or 60 stocks across 10 sectors.\nThe mechanical rules were there to remove emotions about the purchases. I shouldn\u2019t buy a stock because simply because I felt the company might do well. There should be numbers and metrics that justified the purchase and simplified the decision.\nI\u2019ve always been more dividend-income than dividend-growth focused. Consequently I weighted my stocks by dividend income rather than market value. My intent was to limit income risk by limiting the proportion of income that each holding produced. Since yields can vary greatly then $1,000 of two stocks can pay out very different amounts. And from what I\u2019ve read on dividend investing, capital growth is of secondary concern to the dividend payments.\nOn preferring Index Funds\nWarren Buffett is often quoted on some of the DGI blogs I read. His advice is usually along the lines of \u201cbuy good companies, not bad ones\u201d, which is easier said than done. His mentor, Benjamin Graham, is also well regarded as a value investor. Graham\u2019s book, The Intelligent Investor, is a great read by the way! But I digress.\nHere\u2019s a Warren Buffett quote.\nBerkshire Hathaway, Chairman\u2019s Letter \u2013 1996\nMost investors, both institutional and individual, will find that the best way to own common stocks is through an index fund that charges minimal fees.\nThose following this path are sure to beat the net results (after fees and expenses) delivered by the great majority of investment professionals.\nAnd he put his money where his mouth was and bet against professionally managed hedge funds, handily winning his $1 million bet for charity. Now in fairness, after the above quote in his letter, he provides advice on how to invest in individual stocks.\nNow I have no reason to believe that I\u2019m an above-average investor. I have no special secret knowledge of which stocks will go up. Nor do I have a magic or secret trading formula to sell. But I can understand enough that a total market index fund will likely win over the long term because it can\u2019t make a bad decision or purchase. It simply provides the average expected return.\nSo in terms of allocation I\u2019m continuing to limit individual stocks to about 10% of my portfolio.\nHow many stocks?\nOne of the more common discussions is the number of stocks needed in a portfolio to be \u201cdiverse\u201d. Typically the suggested number is about 30 based on the widely published views of Benjamin Graham and Burton Malkiel from A Random Walk on Wall Street. Another great book by the way!\nOf course there are countering viewpoints \u2013 such as the 15 stock diversification myth or the 30 stock diversification myth. You can make your own decision on that one, but in terms of dividend income alone, 30 is likely enough because capital growth isn\u2019t the goal.\nBut I don\u2019t really need to worry about diversification that much since the majority of my portfolio is diversified across hundreds of stocks via index funds. As it is, I hold about 30 stocks and I don\u2019t see a need to buy many more.\nOn owning any individual stocks\nI do struggle with this topic and aside from a large tax bill that I don\u2019t want to pay, I like individual stocks because, well I\u2019m irrational.\nOwning individual stocks still seems like a bit of a status symbol to me since it was always something rich people did when I grew up. And because I tend to be loyal to brands, I feel connected to the company somehow when I use the services of a company that I \u2018own\u2019. This is probably one behavior that I need to get over as large companies don\u2019t owe me anything.\nMaybe as my portfolio increases in value over time, I\u2019ll reduce the 10% allocation a bit. But for now it\u2019s a little bit of play money that may, or may not, do well.\nEnough already, what are the new rules?\nThey\u2019re very simple.\nRule 1: I won\u2019t sell any individual stocks while accumulating.\nI did sell out of two low performing positions earlier this year, before buying them back. Both worked out as a net gain in the end. Going forward, I think it\u2019s good enough to just buy and hold.\nLikewise dividend cuts or suspensions won\u2019t be a reason to sell. Usually the damage has already been done by the time a dividend cut is announced. Such a rule really implies monitoring and selling based on a dividend cut prediction.\nRule 2: When I add to existing holdings, I\u2019ll buy more of the position with the lowest market value.\nThe few purchases I\u2019ve made this year have primarily been driven by stocks that had a low P/E. And then I got into my desire to own 100 DAL stocks. Now that I\u2019m over that, I\u2019m just going to buy whatever position is the lowest when I add more money to individual stocks.\nThe new capital that I\u2019ll be adding to individual stocks in 2018 is probably about $3,000. We\u2019re not talking huge numbers here however and any purchase I make is unlikely to make much impact on the overall outcome.\nSo this rule basically means the portfolio will be equal weighted over time, although I doubt it\u2019ll ever end up that way because of limited purchases over time.\nEqual weighting means an increase in the yield of my individual stocks versus weighting based on dividend income. It also means that I am more likely to add to stocks with a high P/E value than before.\nRule 3: Considerations for new positions\nI\u2019m sticking with the concept that I want to own companies that have a wide moat and growth potential. This loosely means the company has a strong position with economies of scale in a field that is hard for new competitors to join. I don\u2019t have a specific set of metrics here or restrictions on industries.\nThe more I read about investing, the more I realize that the markets today are entirely different from the markets of 50 years ago. The speed of communication of news and reaction to that news is much faster. And while I don\u2019t think that the market is especially rationale in pricing companies, I also see that it can remain irrational for long periods.\nAs an analogy I can decide how much I believe my house is worth based on any number of criteria. However that price means nothing. The only price that matters is what someone is willing to pay for it. Even if I was convinced that my house was worth a certain price, I might never sell it for that amount.\nSo in adjusting my rules, I\u2019m just admitting that I don\u2019t know what an individual stock should be valued. I also don\u2019t pretend to know what it might do over the next 30 years. But I do believe that it\u2019s better to be in the market than out of it. I\u2019m limiting individual stock risk with most of my holdings in index funds.\nDon\u2019t gamble; take all your savings and buy some good stock and hold it till it goes up, then sell it. If it don\u2019t go up, don\u2019t buy it.\nAuthor dividendlifePosted on July 29, 2018 Categories Investing Strategy\n1 thought on \u201cMy new stock purchasing rules\u201d\nI was also just reading about what the possible affects are of all this money going into index funds and what might happen in the next downturn. Should be interesting.\nPrevious Previous post: June 2018: A look at my finances",

        "raw_content": "As you might already know, having your well water tested regularly is important so that you can check for both quality issues and safety issues. If you have never had one of these tests done before, however, you might be unsure of what to expect. These are a few tips for having a water test done on your well water.\n1. Have it Done By the Right Company\nFirst of all, you'll want to have your water test done by the right company. Make sure that you choose a company that does a lot of work with individuals who use their water wells for regular residential use and that has been in the business for a little while for best results.\n2. Ask for Instructions\nNext, if you are unclear about anything, make sure that you ask for instructions. Different water testing companies do things differently.\nWith many companies, you might be given a bottle that you can use to put a sample of your water in. You may be asked to take multiple samples, and you might be given instructions about things like which source to get your samples from and what time of day you should get these samples.\nMake sure that you ask questions if you aren't sure about something and that you follow these instructions for the most accurate results from your water test.\n3. Mention Any Concerns That You Have\nIn the days, weeks, or months leading up to your water test, you might have noticed certain things about your water or might have had certain concerns. If you have noticed things like your well water having an odor or having an unusual appearance, then you will want to mention these things to the professionals who will be conducting the water test. This can help you ensure that you get answers to any questions and concerns that you might have.\nThese are a few tips that you can follow when having a water test done on the well water that you and your family use. Follow these tips, and you can help ensure that the water test goes well and that you get the most accurate results. Then, you can find out about the safety and quality of the water that comes from your water well, and you can determine if there is anything that you need to do in order to ensure that you and your family are drinking safe and high-quality water. Contact a company such as Green Living Water Solutions for more information about having your water tested.",

        "title": "Is Jesus Recorded as a Failed Apocalypticist? \u2013 Ehrman Project",
        "raw_content": "\u201cDr. Ehrman strongly advocates that the New Testament portrays Jesus and most of his followers as apocalyptic prophets. It seems they were sure of the end coming very soon \u2013 at least during their lifetime. So\u2026either the New Testament writers wrongly recorded these things or Jesus was wrong, right?\u201d\nIn Professor Ehrman\u2019s book, Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the New Millennium, he adopts the view of Albert Schweitzer that Jesus is best understood as a Jewish apocalypticist who mistakenly thought that God was getting ready to end the world immediately. \u201cJesus thought that the history of the world would come to a screeching halt, that God would intervene in the affairs of this planet, overthrow the forces of evil in a cosmic act of judgment, and establish his utopian kingdom here on earth. And this was to happen within Jesus\u2019 own generation\u201d (p.3).\nThe basis for this view of Jesus is found in the gospel writers. Five particularly important verses are all found in Matthew. \u201cWhen you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. I tell you the truth, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes\u201d (Matthew 10:23). \u201cI tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom\u201d (Matthew 16:28). \u201cI tell you the truth, all this will come upon this generation\u201d (Matthew 23:36). \u201cI tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away\u201d (Matthew 24:34-35). \u201cBut I say to all of you: In the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven\u201d (Matthew 26:64).\nFamous twentieth-century philosopher and atheist Bertrand Russell speaks for many critics then and now when he writes, \u201cHe [Jesus] certainly thought that His second coming would occur in clouds of glory before the death of all the people who were living at that time. There are a great many texts that prove that. \u2026 In that respect, clearly he was not so wise as some other people have been, and he was certainly not superlatively wise\u201d ( Why I Am Not a Christian). Before one accepts Russell\u2019s and Ehrman\u2019s conclusion, however, one should make sure that he or she is understanding these texts in their contexts and in the context of the time in which they were written. Jesus was not the first prophet to have pointed powerfully to the end of all things, and his apostles would do likewise in their writings after he was dead (and, according to their belief, raised from the dead and ascended to God the Father\u2019s right hand). Jesus definitely taught that \u201cGod would intervene in the affairs of this planet\u201d as Professor Ehrman observes. But that \u201cthis was to happen within Jesus\u2019 own generation\u201d is less clear, especially depending on what one understands by the \u201cthis.\u201d\nLet\u2019s take each of the five Matthew passages in turn and then we should be in a position better to understand the corroborative testimony of both Old Testament prophets and New Testament apostles that \u201cthe end is near.\u201d\nConcerning Matthew 10:23 above, I agree with a great many commentators who have seen that verse as referring to the judgment of the Son of Man meted out to the Jewish nation through the agency of the Roman empire in A.D. 70, when the temple was destroyed at the climax of the suppression of the Jewish revolt.\nConcerning Matthew 16:28 above, I agree with the many commentators who have seen that verse as being explained by the Transfiguration of Jesus that immediately follows in the very next verses. Having told his disciples that the Son of Man would come in his Father\u2019s glory (16:27), he now gives them a foretaste of that coming in his glorious kingdom through his shining like the sun and his clothes becoming as white as the light (17:2).\nConcerning Matthew 23:36 above, the stress on judgment points in the same direction as in Matthew 10:23\u2013this reference is to the defeat of the Jewish rebellion by the Romans and the destruction of the temple in August, A.D. 70. One generation is often seen in Scripture as 40 years, particularly since the faithless generation that came out of Egypt in the Exodus died out over a 40-year period while God punished them for their unbelief and disobedience and prepared their children to enter the Promised Land (see Numbers 14:30-35). If, as many scholars believe, Jesus uttered these words in A.D. 30 just before his death, then A.D. 70 fits the picture of a \u201cgeneration\u201d perfectly.\nConcerning Matthew 24:34 above, the reader will now predict correctly that the generation that will not pass away \u201cuntil all these things have happened\u201d is the generation to which Jesus was speaking. Within 40 years they would have seen the distress of Matthew 24:4-28. As D. A. Carson writes, \u201call that v. 34 demands is that the distress of vv. 4-28, including Jerusalem\u2019s fall, happen within it. Therefore, v. 34 sets a terminus a quo for the Parousia: it cannot happen till the events in vv. 4-28 take place, all within a generation of A.D. 30. But there is no terminus ad quem to this distress other than the Parousia itself, and \u2018only the Father\u2019 knows when it will happen\u201d (Commentary on Matthew).\nConcerning Matthew 26:64 above, there is no difficulty with this verse referring to an indefinite time in the future if one has not predetermined that Jesus believes he will be immediately vindicated and sent back to earth to restore all things. The Old Testament prophets also frequently said \u201cthe day of the Lord is near\u201d without specifying exactly when it would come (Isaiah 13:6; Ezekiel 30:3; Joel 1:15; 3:14; Obadiah 15; and Zephaniah 1:7, 14). Their point was that the certainty of God\u2019s judgment in justice is always hanging over the heads of those who ignore his calls to repentance. Every generation of Christ\u2019s disciples thinks it will be the last before his return. One generation will be correct!\nThe kingdom of God is near according to Jesus (Matthew 3:2; 4:17; 10:7; 24:32-33; Mark 1:15; 13:28-29; Luke 10:9, 11; 21:8, 20, 28, 30-31). The Lord is near according to Paul (Philippians 4:5) and James (James 5:8). The end of all things is near according to Peter (I Peter 4:7). John records that Jesus is coming soon (Revelation 1:1, 3; 2:16; 3:11; 22:6, 7, 12, 20). These apostles join Jesus in declaring the consummation of human history as imminent. Like the prophets before them and Tim McGraw after them, the apostles and Jesus want to exhort the disciples to \u201clive like they were dying.\u201d Just as a diagnosis of cancer can helpfully focus the mind to make the most of the breaths one has left, so the announcement that the end of all things is at hand can move a person and a whole society to make their remaining moments count for eternity.\nSo the three most important verses in Matthew\u2019s gospel for explaining Jesus\u2019 view of the end of human history and the great judgment of God are not among the five we have looked at but rather are 24:14, 36, and 25:40.\nFirst, \u201cThis gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come\u201d (Matthew 24:14). Jesus\u2019 followers need to be about spreading the good news of his in-breaking kingdom to all the peoples of the earth, since our patient God does not desire the death of anyone but rather that people might repent and live (II Peter 3:9; Ezekiel 18:23; Lamentations 3:33).\nSecond , \u201cNo one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father\u201d (Matthew 24:36). Jesus\u2019 followers need to be \u201ckeeping watch\u201d (24:42) and \u201cready\u201d (24:44) precisely because they do NOT know the day or the hour of their Lord\u2019s return. His Father and theirs did not want them to know exactly when he would come again, so that they would stay on alert and live their lives in the light of eternity.\nThird , \u201cThe King will reply, \u2018I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me\u201d (Matthew 25:40). Rather than speculating about the exact time of the end, Christ\u2019s followers should be showing kindness to their absent Lord through their treatment of their present brothers and sisters. It is that love that will give evidence of their true faith in Him on that last day.\nJesus was not wrong about when he would return. He predicted a taste of judgment for the people of God within a generation of his death, a judgment that took place through the Romans in the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the temple. He also predicted his visible return in glory to judge all cultures and individuals, but far from insisting that his return could be tied to one generation later, he intimated that people would be thinking, \u201cmy master is staying away a long time\u201d (Matthew 24:48). He told a story about his return in which \u201cthe bridegroom was a long time in coming\u201d (25:5), and another in which, the master of three servants only returned \u201cafter a long time\u201d (25:19). He said his words would never pass away (Matthew 24:35), and they are as relevant and true today, two millennia after his death (and resurrection), as they were when he spoke them.",

At the time, traveling through numerous Siberian towns and villages I was surprised by the amount of packmen in the railway stations. Many of them were peddlers who carried around goods, but increasingly, I noticed more and more people who moved around with their whole families and children. \"The result of countless military conflicts,\" explained to me a philology student. He had spent his Russian military service in Trans-Dniestr region, in the very centre of first post-soviet military conflicts.\nLater, at the turn of millennium, I met war refugees all over the region, in the streets of Baku and Tiflis. The situation has not improved till this very day. Today, several thousand Chechen refugees live in the Pankis valley in Georgia, at the border with Chechnya. They are people who have deserted their homes under blasts of artillery explosions and never ceasing machine-gun fire. It is a blind old man who has been crossing a dangerous mountain-pass on foot for three days, and probably will spend his last days in Georgia, on the other side of mountain range. They are exhausted mothers who have left their dead babies in the snow.\nChildren, who have survived, seeing only violence and violent solutions to conflicts, grow up in a foreign land with a single thought on their minds - to return and revenge, some day. Former doctor of Grozny hospital works in the field, to make a living for herself and her fatherless children.\nEvery week, a United Nations aid truck brings food and medical supplies. An entire generation has grown up in an atmosphere of ethnic conflicts and there is no solution in sight.

        "raw_content": "To create a new person and maintain human life on earth, we need fertility. Most of us want to be fertile but unfortunately, not all of us are.\nCan you do something to increase fertility?\nYes it\u2018s possible, but it can be very difficult and sometimes the only thing we can do is prepare the female body for in vitro fertilization and even if that is usually possible sometimes there is nothing we can do.\nWhat can you do to increase fertility?\n1. The first step is to make the body healthy again.\na) Exercise is very important. You need to find the right kind of exercise that suits you. If you are very stressed or sensitive to environmental stimuli, yoga or something similar is probably best.\nb) A healthy diet is crucial when you are trying to make a new person, this goes for both sexes. It\u2019s best to eat a variety of foods to maximize your nutritional intake. Keep the food as free of additives as possible and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Seeds and nuts contain a lot of diverse nutrients and essential polyunsaturated fats. It\u2019s better to eat more fish than meat and substitute those with beans on occasion. Avoid everything that has been overly processed, like white wheat and white sugar. It\u2019s best to make as much of your own food from scratch, it takes more time, but it\u2019s so worth it.\nA healthy diet can also be used to build up the female and male body for fertilization.\n1. Use the diet described above.\n2. Fasting is good after you have eaten a healthy diet for about 3 \u2013 4 months, since it stimulates production of healthy eggs and sperm. The duration of the fast depends on the condition of your body. If you are fasting for the first time, 4 days is appropriate or even one day. It\u2019s suitable for some people to fast one day a week.\nThe most likely reason for allergies and disorders, that often start right after birth, is that the parents didn\u2019t take good enough care of themselves. This is something few people have considered but it\u2019s something we need to start considering if we want to stop creating immunocompromised individuals. Of course there are many other things to consider, but we can do more than we think.\n3. Good sleep and rest is essential to build up and maintain each individual.\n4. Obviously you should avoid smoking and alcohol if you want to maintain a healthy body.\n5. Our mental and spiritual health needs to be good also and there is plenty we can do in that aspect:\nGo to art galleries.\nOnce you have fixed your diet, exercise, sleep and mental health you can start thinking about using some herbs to increase fertility. Most of the herbs used are very nutrient rich, which just makes your bodies even healthier.\nThere are many herbs that are believed to increase fertility, though some of them are not completely safe for use. I\u2019d like to emphasize, don\u2019t use anything else except what I mention here unless discussing it with a licensed herbalist first. Don\u2019t talk to a traditional medical doctor since he/she probably won\u2019t even know these herbs and will undoubtedly recommend you not to take any herbs just to be on the safe side.\nReasons for infertility are many and differ between individuals. Sometimes it can be relatively easy to increase fertility in a woman that has even been trying for years.\nHerbs that increase fertility\nThese herbs can be categorized into the following categories, depending on functionality.\nHerbs that nourish and strengthens the uterus itself.\nHerbs that nourish the whole body.\nHerbs that calm the nervous system.\nHerbs that balance hormones.\nHerbs that increase sex drive.\nRed Clover: Is a very effective herb. It has a high protein content, is rich in easily absorbable calcium and magnesium, can calm the nervous system and increase fertility. It also contain a lot of other minerals that have positive effects on the gonads and balance hormones. Since Red Clover is basic it can help to balance the body\u2019s pH, including the uterus and vagina, creating the right conditions for fertilization.\nStinging Nettle: Strengthens the uterus and is generally strengthening for the whole body due to its high mineral and chlorophyll content, which nourish and strengthens the endocrine system. It also strengthens the kidneys and adrenal glands. Red Clover and Stinging Nettle can be mixed together, in equal measure, and drunken like a tea, 1-2 tbsp in 1 cup of boiled water. Steep the herbs for at least 15 minutes before drinking. Stinging nettle contains a lot of easily absorbable iron and calcium.\nRaspberry Leaves: Strengthens the uterus, making the endometrium ready to receive a fertilized egg. This herb also contains a lot of calcium. It\u2019s good to mix it with Red Clover, using the same method as with Stinging Nettle. These herbs need to be used for months or even a whole year.\nChasteberry (Vitex): Is sometimes needed to balance hormones when they are out of whack. It regulates the pituitary gland and its hormones, in both men and women. Put \u00bd tsp in 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Let the mixture stand overnight and then drink on an empty stomach in the morning.\nLady\u2019s Mantle: Is a very good herb to balance estrogen production since it contains estrogen-like hormones.\nThese are the 5 herbs that can be used to increase fertility. They are all very safe for use so they shouldn\u2019t be able to cause anyone any damage. It\u2019s important to consult an experienced herbalist before you start using these herbs, just so you can be sure you are using the right herbs. Not that the herbs can cause any damage, just to maximize results.\nOld wives tales to increase fertility\nHere I want to mention something that is believed to help though no scientific evidence is behind it. It involves using light to control ovulation. Keep a light on in the bedroom 3 nights in a row during the middle of the menstrual cycle, but complete darkness all the other nights, and ovulation will occur during these 3 nights, increasing the chance of fertilization. This method is believed to work really well while you are using the herbs. The nutrients most important during this period are calcium and magnesium, the most important nutrients for the woman to conceive and maintain pregnancy. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so good to use both Raspberry Leaves and Stinging Nettle, since both those herbs are calcium and magnesium rich. It\u2019s good for the male to take Vitamin E to strengthen his reproduction system. He can also use herbs that contain testosterone-like hormones, like Turnera or Saw Palmetto, which increases testosterone production.\nWhat can impact fertility or cause miscarriages\nCaffeine (coffee, black tea, cola, chocolate and mate).\nAntihistamines (also herb Ma Huang or Ephedra).\nMost laxative herbs.\nMedications for excess stomach acids.\nDiuretic medications and herbs (Buchu, Horsetail and Juniper Berries).\nHair dyes.\nStimulants and anti-depressants.\nHerbs and medications that contain steroid-like chemicals, like Ginseng, Licorice, Hops and Sage. Most of these herbs also decrease lactation, something which tells a lot about the real action of them.\nToo much vitamin A, C and D. Vitamins found in herbs are a lot safer than the ones we get from pills. Most pills contain some man-made vitamins, even the once that are supposed to be all natural.\nStrong chemicals like paint, solvents, varnish, glue, chemicals used for dry cleaning, some plastics and rubbers.\nThe following spices can induce miscarriage so skip them altogether: Basil, caraway, celery seeds, ginger, fresh horseradish, savory, marjoram, nutmeg, rosemary, saffron, parsley, estragon and thyme. These herbs should be avoided during the first trimester when the risk of a miscarriage is the most. After that they should be safe.\nWhat can you do to strengthen yourself during pregnancy?\nIn addition to a healthy and varied diet, what is needed to maintain a healthy pregnancy is to learn to breathe correctly, get enough sunlight, get enough oxygen, drink plenty of water, have a loving relationship with your significant other, a beautiful and balanced daily life and a positive outlook on life.\nMost problems that occur during pregnancy can be prevented with a healthy diet, like morning sickness or mood swings which stem from swings in blood sugar, and can be remedied by eating whole grains, vegetables and by eating smaller portions more frequently during the day. Backache, hypertension and pains are due to calcium deficiency and varicose veins, hemorrhoid and anemia are all due to specific vitamin deficiencies. It is understandable that nutrient deficiencies are common during pregnancy, considering that there is a new individual growing inside and the amount of blood needs to increase by 50%.\nOne of the herbs that are recommended during pregnancy to strengthen the uterus and to prevent various maladies is RASPBERRY LEAVES, as previously mentioned. The herb is full of vitamins A, B, C and E and easily absorbable calcium, iron, phosphorus and potassium. Its benefits are:\nIncreases fertility in both males and females.\nPrevents miscarriages and bleedings.\nLessens morning sickness.\nDecreases labor pains.\nDuring labor the herb makes the uterus more flexible, decreasing tension and therefore pains. This doesn\u2019t increase contractions but allows the uterus to work properly and therefore makes labor easier.\nNext up is STINGING NETTLE, which is mainly useful due to its mineral content. Women suffering from fluid retention should use Stinging Nettle because it strengthens the kidneys.\nDecreases leg cramps.\nPrevents heavy bleeding after birth.\nLowers the risk of hemorrhoids and varicose veins.\nStimulates lactation.\nHerbs for nausea:\nIf there is a likelihood of miscarriage, the woman should avoid Ginger altogether. It has been used for pregnancy related nausea but should be completely avoided the first 3 months. There are herbs available that can be used in this case, but they are very strong and not available in Iceland. Vitamin E can help in some cases.\nYarrow can be used for all manner of pregnancy related problems, i.e. varicose veins and hemorrhoids. It\u2019s best to use it regularly as a preventative because it takes it a few months to work because it is so mild.\nCHEMICAL PREGNANT LACTATING NORMAL\nenergy (kcal) 2500 2700 2200\nprotein (g) 60 65 44-50\ncalcium (mg) 1200 1200 800\nphosphorus (mg) 1200 1200 800\niron (mg) 30 15 15\nmagnesium (mg) 320 355 280\niodine (mcg) 175 200 150\nzinc (mg) 15 19 12\nselenium (mcg) 65 75 55\nvit.A (mcg) 800 1300 800\nvit.D (mcg) 10 10 10",

Conclusion: Neuroscience and Free Will in the Field of the Personal\nMajor Trends in Contemporary Personalism\nNeuroscience has moved to the forefront of the free will debate, introducing new ideas, new questions and new problems regarding Free Will. This paper examines our neuroscientific and philosophical notions of free will and suggests that the principal problem in the debate is that the free will question has been inadequately formulated. The neuroscience debate has come to be grounded in an empirical neuroscientific position with its materialist/deterministic presuppositions, and in the outmoded position of substance dualism that has bequeathed us the mind/body problem. A reformulation of the question is presented drawing on the thought of Juan Manuel Burgos and John Macmurray in the tradition of philosophical personalism. Free will, when examined from the field of the personal, and in categories specific to human persons, becomes a human activity, rather than a merely physical capacity or faculty. From this perspective, it becomes possible to address free will in the context of normal development, and to ask questions regarding limitations on free will, including contemporary understandings of the impact of neurologic and psychiatric illness.\nFree will, personalism, Juan Manuel Burgos, John Macmurray, neuroscience, neuroethics\nI. Neuroscience and Free Will Neuroscience has made its presence felt in the Free Will debate in two ways. First, and most pervasively, through the methodology and general worldview of science present in the wider culture, as science investigates brain function and shapes our views of self. Secondly, and most dramatically, neuroscience entered the Free Will debate through the work of neuroscientist Benjamin Libet in his empirical studies of conscious intention to act, studies that have generated widespread discussion and conflicting interpretation.\nThe purpose of this essay is to address the question of free will at the structural level and to question of whether our current conceptual approaches are adequate to the task. I will suggest that the \u201cproblem\u201d of free will is one that is largely of our own making and is the result of a process of abstraction that limits our ability to address the question. I will also suggest that a broadening of this currently over-limited conceptual architecture would be helpful in seeing the larger problem, and moving toward a broader and deeper discussion of free will that takes into account the full complexity of the human person.\nNeuroscience Neuroscience has deepened our understanding of brain function as a complement to discussions of Free Will. It has also been problematic in terms of the underlying assumptions of its worldview. The methods of neuroscience are those of the wider scientific enterprise, grounded in the experimental method and the examination of observable phenomena.1 Science in the modern era limits itself to the observable, physical world, and thus on the physical/material and organic aspects of the person, a focus that has brought about great advances in science and medicine, but at the same time continues to operate within a dualistic and at times monolithic world view that creates difficulties when attempting to think about Free Will, forcing us to ask the question, \u201cHow our mind and body connected?\u201d\nThe Necessary Consequence of Dualism This dualism arose as philosophy shifted from a theocentric to an anthropocentric enterprise. Cartesian notions of mental substance and physical substance as discrete and fundamentally different aspects of reality have left us with the struggle of trying to describe how the two interact. Neuroscience has, in practice, embraced and reduced this dualism in its discussions of mind and body, and attempted to describe these two conceptually distinct entities in terms of neurobiology.2 I would like to suggest that the problem of Free Will, within this context, is a problem largely of our own making.\nFree Will in the Field of the Personal For Free Will there is a way through the problem of dualism that can be found in the philosophy of Personalism. In examining this path, I will look to the work of the Personalist tradition in general, and specifically to the work of two Personalist philosophers, John Macmurray, writing in Scotland and England through much of the 20th century, and Juan Manuel Burgos writing in Spain today. Both philosophers offer a diagnosis of the problem of how we think about Free Will, and both offer some solutions.\nIf we follow the work of these two philosophers, it becomes possible to see the conceptual difficulties in many of the current formulations of the problem of Free Will to reformulate them in a more comprehensive way. These philosophers address some problematic philosophical ideas that have endured in the Free Will discussion, and seek to reformulate a number of questions in a more comprehensive manner.\nThe Personalist philosophical tradition has deep roots in the history of philosophy, but took its contemporary form during and after the two World Wars. Personalism steps outside of the Cartesian thought world and offers an opportunity to consider the question of Free Will in a manner that is grounded in persons adequately envisioned. For these philosophers, the question of Free Will is first and fundamentally a question of Persons. Personalism originates in a shift in perspective, moving from questions of being to questions of doing, from questions of substance to questions of action-in-relation.\nPersonalism is not a single philosophical school, but rather a \u201cworldview\u201d defined by some central ideas held in common by many philosophers working in the tradition. It is grounded in \u201cthe general affirmation of the centrality of the person for philosophical thought\u201d (Williams and Bengtsson 2014,2). Personalism asserts \u201cthe person is the key in the search for self \u2013 knowledge, for correct insight into reality, and for the place of persons in it\u201d (Buford 2011,1). In practice, this means that \u201cPersonalists believe that the human person should be the ontological and epistemological starting point of philosophical reflection. Their concern is to investigate the experience, the status and the dignity of the human being as person, and regard this as the starting \u2013 point for all subsequent philosophical analysis\u201d (Williams and Bengtsson 2014,3). British philosopher Richard Allen has given us a succinct description of the Personalist tradition: \u2018Personalism\u2019 is a distinctive way of thinking, and not only in philosophy but also in theology, history, sociology and psychology, which stresses the distinctiveness, unique value, freedom and responsibility of personal existence, and seeks to articulate and apply the categorie and conceptions uniquely appropriate to persons, and not just those applicable to animals, organisms and merely physical entities, nor the barren and abstract ones of formal logic. (Allen 2013, 2)3\nPersonalism encompasses a broad range of philosophical ideas and methods; historically, it has never associated itself with one specific or dominant methodology. At the same time, with Person as its central topos (Buford 2009), Williams and Bengtsson (2014) have identified five common characteristics of Personalist thought:\n1. The Person/Non-person distinction: Personalism holds that there is radical difference between persons and nonpersons and that there is a character of irreducibility to the human person. For Personalists, the difference between human beings on the one hand, and animals and inanimate objects on the other is one of kind, not of degree.\n2. The dignity of the human person: The ontological distinction between persons and nonpersons yields ethical consequences that include affirming the dignity and inherent value of persons, recognizing a difference between \u201csomeone\u201d and \u201csomething\u201d which touches on issues of justice, political decision-making, and life in community.\n3. Interiority and subjectivity: Personalism acknowledges the interior/subjective nature of person in the unity of self-awareness and consciousness, in the human experience of self as both subject and object of activity, not reducible to the material world. In the Personalist tradition, this subjectivity encompasses \u201cinteriority, freedom, and personal autonomy\u201d (Williams and Bengtsson 2014, 31). \u201cThe human being must be treated as a subject, must be understood in terms of the modern view of specifically human subjectivity as determined by consciousness\u201d (Williams and Bengtsson 2014, 33).\n4. Self-determination: For Personalism, this is the domain of Free Will in action, where persons interact with the world not in a causally predetermined manner, but rather act out of an inner subjectivity capable of action and selfdetermination. For the Personalist, human action is creative, causal, and determines both the external world and the actor. Action and self-determination occurs in the domain of the moral life where good or bad actions are sought and performed and where persons form themselves into morally good or bad human beings.\n5. Relationality: The various Personalist traditions emphasize the human person\u2019s nature as a social/relational being. Persons never exist in isolation, and becoming a person is an integrally social activity that happens across the lifespan. For the Personalist, human beings flourish most fully only in relation with others. This aspect of personhood was strongly influenced by mid-20th century Personalist philosophy seeking a middle way through the extreme visions of Totalitarianisms of the right and the left that saw the individual as subsumed by and subordinate to the state on the one hand, and an extreme individualism which viewed the human person without need for relation to others. For the Personalist, humans are naturally social, naturally form societies and maintain them intentionally in the service of human flourishing.\nJuan Manuel Burgos and John Macmurray, both operate within this broadly Personalist tradition. Both writers illustrate that much of the \u201cproblem\u201d of free will is one of our own making, deeply rooted in our habits of thought formulated at the beginning of the scientific revolution in the 17th century and in the concurrent rise of the modern philosophical period. Both authors see much of the difficulty in contemporary thought as grounded in a misconception of persons, and both propose a transformation in our thinking to a more holistic vision of person that adequately addresses the problem of Free Will.\nJuan Manuel Burgos and the Classical Philosophical Heritage\nJuan Manuel Burgos, currently Professor at the University San Pablo CEU (Madrid) has written extensively in the Personalist tradition.4 He asserts that in order to adequately describe persons, an integration of the best of classical and contemporary philosophical concepts is necessary. At the same time, this process necessitates eschewing philosophies of person that attempt to describe what a person is indirectly. He refers to this problem of indirect description as our \u201cGreek ballast.\u201d In classical Greek philosophical tradition, the Cosmos encompassed all things, the natural world, human beings, the gods. Within this conception of the universe, stood the great biologist of the ancient world, Aristotle. In his classification scheme, he placed persons under the broad category of animals, and sought to distinguish human beings by describing them as rational animals.\nWhile capturing an aspect of what it means to be a person, the term created conceptual difficulties:\nBy the Greek ballast I mean the tendency, born in Greek philosophy, describing man by applying slight modifications to philosophical notions designed for objects or animals, with the result that what is specifically human, what constitutes man as a person is obscured or may even disappear. (Burgos 2013)5\nThe Problem of Categories A large part of our difficulty in understanding the nature of personhood, for Burgos, is the conceptual error of trying to understand human beings primarily through animal categories that are modified in some way to reflect specific aspects of human beings (e.g., \u201crational animal\u201d).\nTo be able to understand and talk about persons, he argues, it is necessary to put aside this conceptual baggage and to develop an anthropology that begins with considering what is specifically and uniquely human. If we begin with persons, rather than animals, it becomes possible to construct an anthropology that reflects what is uniquely human, rather than trying to shoehorn persons into categories the do not fully capture who we are.\nBurgos describes this process in the history of philosophy from the early 20th century forward as \u201cthe personalist turn\u201d (Burgos 2013, 8) reflected in all of the philosophers outlined above, the process by which human beings are approached not from extrinsic categories, but from categories exclusive to persons (Burgos 2013, 5). \u201cThe indiscriminate application of general concepts, such as the four causes, accidents, substance, to any kind of being, is a simplification that is not justified given the complexity of reality, and leads to confusion and a poor understanding of the issues involved\u201d (Burgos 2013, 7). The most fundamental conceptual shift is moving from asking \u201cwhat\u201d is a person to asking \u201cwho\u201d a person is.\nJournal of Cognition and Neuroethics Another consequence of this conceptual ballast is the mind-body problem, with roots that can be traced back into ancient Greek philosophical tradition of soul and body, adopted in the Middle Ages, where e.g. Thomas Aquinas described the soul as the substantial form of the body, linked in some way to the body as its animating principle. The problem was immeasurably deepened by Descartes\u2019 radical doubt that resulted in focusing on thought and the theoretical to the detriment of the physical and the practical.\nIn attempting to reformulate our understanding of persons anew, Burgos attempts to articulate a notion of person in categories specific to persons. He posits a tri-dimensional structure of person, described in three integrated \u201clevels\u201d of body, psyche and spirit, a structure which stands against dualism allows for a more sophisticated philosophical anthropology (Burgos 2013, 9). An important aspect of this process involves a rehabilitation of emotion, seeing it not as something interfering with rationality, not an expression of the irrational in us, but as a unique and integral dimension of persons:\nTo overcome this vision, something necessary to achieve an integral and apology, we have to hold two points. The first one is the originality of emotions, i.e., it\u2019s radical difference from human knowledge and from human dynamisms. And, to do so, we might understand them as the way the person is present to himself in his subjectivity (vivincia de s\u00ed). To feel is different from to know and from will. To feel is to feel, the same way to see is nothing more or less than to see. It\u2019s a primary anthropological dimension. In second place, we have to be conscious that this anthropological trait is present in all the tri-dimensional anthropological structure of the person: body, psyche and spirit. There are bodily feelings, that is to say, the way we feel the body; there are emotions in the psychic level; and there are also spiritual feelings which give reason of some of our deepest personal experiences like the relations with our beloved ones. (2013, 10)\nFeelings, then are intimately connected with our subjectivity and our consciousness, our experience of ourselves as persons: \u201cto live himself (vivirse al si mismo); to possess a unique personal world is an essential trait of human being, the trait in fact, which transforms him into a \u2018who\u2019\u201d (Burgos 2013, 10).\nPersons in Relation\nA capacity for interpersonal relationships is also central to Burgos\u2019 philosophical anthropology, in keeping with the wider Personalist tradition of viewing persons in relation rather than as isolated selves. We are born into a web of relationships necessary for our development as persons; absent this relational world persons cannot develop, or even survive. We are social by nature and live in a world that begins with relationships with parents, in the context of immediate and extended family, and broadens into a larger world of \u201cI and Thou.\u201d6\nAt the same time, persons do not exist in a world of relational abstraction. For Burgos, body is a dimension of person, removed from dualistic notions of mindbody that create the need to try to explain how the two interact. Our bodies are not something we have or something we inhabit, but rather a dimension of who we are, the somatic dimension of personhood. In this vision, for example, human sexuality is a personal, normal and integral dimension of personhood. While our sexuality is rooted in our biology, biological processes alone cannot fully apprehend or express the richness of sexuality touching on all dimensions of the person (Burgos 2013, 12). Continuing this relational notion of person, Burgos describes persons as naturally social, and human society not as a necessary evil, but a natural expression of personal activity. Persons are seen as the center of society, the standard by which society ought to be organized.\nLastly, these aspects of personhood raise the questions of how persons relate to one another. In the Personalist vision, this means moving beyond a static philosophy of being to a dynamic philosophy of action and interaction that is integrated and respectful of persons in all their dimensions. This means moving beyond ancient and medieval philosophical traditions focusing on intellect that led to the modern philosophical focus on epistemology, logic and language to a philosophy grounded in action:\n\u201dNow, Praxis, understood as the medium in which man expresses and transforms himself became central; and people also realized that man will be understood really only fully if all the dimensions of its [man\u2019s] activity are also fully understood. This new orientation allowed personalism to deal with many areas that scholastic tradition had neglected like work, aesthetics, economy, social and political philosophy, and so on.\u201d (Burgos 2013, 11)\nFor Burgos, as for many other personalist philosophers, the only proper relation between persons individually and in society, is love. \u201cPersonalism emphasizes the priority of love as a guiding element of human activity in so far as it gives meaning to life and to interpersonal relationships. A life without love, in which someone had not been loved or could not have love, would certainly be a life radically inhuman and incomplete\u201d (Burgos 2013, 11).\nJ.M. Burgos on Free Will\nIt is in the context of philosophy of action-in-relation that Burgos specifically addresses the question of Free Will, as an integral dimension and activity of persons. Within a philosophy of action, we do not have Free Will; rather the do Free Will as an integral aspect of who we are. Freedom, for Burgos is a \u201cdeep feature\u201d of human dynamism that can be obscured if one approaches persons in categories other than those specific to person, including the physical and the biological, grounded as they are in theories of cause and effect. To approach persons in categories specific to persons allows us to observe human dynamism and free will and action. It is only when we prescind from categories specific to persons and focus our attention on physical and biological analogies that free will become a problem. Operating, rather, in a conceptual world that focuses on categories specific to person, freedom is specific to persons, and Free Will is seen \u201cspecifically as self-determination.\u201d\nPersonalism, then, has a fundamentally ethical nature touching on our relationships with ourselves and with others directly and at increasingly complex levels of family, community and society. In order to articulate a moral vision in this context, it is necessary to begin with persons fully conceived in categories specific to persons, a necessary process without which persons cannot be fully apprehended and understood.\nJohn Macmurray and the Field of the Personal Scottish born John Macmurray (1891\u20131976) wrote and taught for many years in the Personalist tradition; his work touches on such topics as the social nature of the person and the need to move from a philosophy of being to a philosophy of action.7\nThe Concept of \u201cField\u201d Macmurray\u2019s basic philosophical enterprise emerged in his analysis of the modern philosophical period, as he attempted to articulate the nature of the human person individually, in action, and in relation, distinct from the physical and biological analogies of person that developed from the 17th through the 19th centuries. To do this, Macmurray uses the concept of \u201cForm\u201d or \u201cField,\u201d by which he meant a conceptual architecture used to understand the human person.\nFor Macmurray, every age has its own central philosophical questions, and as transformations in society occur, old questions and problems diminish in importance or fall away and new questions arise. He located modern philosophy\u2019s origins in the period of the early scientific revolution, and in the turn to a focus on the individual. For Macmurray, Descartes effected a disruption in a unified vision of person that existed prior to the modern philosophical period:\nModern philosophy is characteristically egocentric. I mean no more than this: that firstly, it takes the Self as its starting point, and not God, or the world of the community; and that, secondly, there is an individual in isolation, and ego or \u2018I\u2019, never a \u2018thou\u2019. This is shown by the fact that there can arise the question, \u2018How does this Self know that other selves exist?\u2019 Further, the Self so premised is a thinker in search of knowledge. It is conceived as the Subject; the correlate in experience of the object presented for cognition. Philosophy, then, as distinct from Science, is concerned with the formal characters of the processes, activities or constructions in and through which the object is theoretically determined. And since the Self is an element, in some sense, of the world presented for knowing, it must be determined through the same form as every other object.\u201d (Macmurray 1957, 31)\nStage 1: The Field of the Material Macmurray characterized the philosophical era that runs from 1600 to the present as falling into three broad stages. The first of these stages ran from the beginnings of the scientific revolution through the mid-1800s. In the sciences it was typified in the discipline of physics and the work of Isaac Newton. The development of the science of physics was grounded in a physical/material vision of the world, described in mathematical methodology, deterministic in nature, that saw the fundamental mode of activity in the universe as that of cause and effect. The overarching philosopher of the age was Ren\u00e9 Descartes, in a philosophical process running from Descartes to David Hume,leaving us with a seemingly inescapable dualism of mind and matter, a world in which there were two types of \u201csubstances,\u201d one mental and one physical. This initial dualism devolved to numerous positions in the philosophical tradition ranging from absolute idealism to absolute materialism, the universe reduced either to matter or to mind. This left philosophy with the unenviable task of trying to derive a vision of person from one or the other of these polarities. Science set up camp in the materialist vision with its paradigm of cause and effect, which Murray termed this \u201cField of the Mechanical\u201d (Macmurray 1957, 13), a view of the world is composed of matter, describable through mathematics, deterministic in nature, that sees human beings as purely material and explainable in these terms. It is a field that is fundamentally impersonal, in which it is impossible to conceive of Free Will.\nStage 2: The Field of the Organic The next stage Murray characterizes involves a reaction to the world view of physics, an era that saw the development of the science of biology, and in a series of reactions, both philosophical and artistic, to purely mechanistic notions of the workings of the universe. If the central figure in the Field of the physical/material/mechanistic was Isaac Newton, the central figure of the field of the organic was Charles Darwin. Out of his theory of evolution developed the field of evolutionary biology, and the attempt to understand persons through biological/organic categories and analogies. This involved a return to ancient Greek notions of person, viewed in animal categories. This developed, in the late 19th century, to a view of society as a developing and evolving organism, one of whose consequences was the development of Social Darwinism, in which not only individuals but also ethnic groups were engaged in a struggle for survival. In its most negative aspects it was seen in the eugenics movement of the late 1800s, and taken over into the political realm in National Socialist racial policy of the 1930\u2019s and 40\u2019s.\nIt is here, in the Field of the Organic, that consciousness arises in the animal world. The Field of the Organic continues to operate in an essentially deterministic mode,now conceptualized as the stimulus \u2013 response of biological organisms engaged in the process of adaptation to environment. It is still a world that Murray would characterize as \u201cimpersonal\u201d:\nGreek tradition has been strongly reinforced by the organic philosophies of the 19th century in the development of evolutionary biology. This in turn led to the attempt to create evolutionary sciences in the human field, particularly in its social aspect. The general result of these converging cultural activities \u2013 the romantic movement, the organic philosophies idealist, realist and evolutionary science, \u2013 was that contemporary thought about human behavior, individual and social, became saturated with biological metaphors, and molded itself to the requirements of an organic analogy. It became the common idiom to talk of ourselves as organisms and of our societies as organic structure; to refer to the history of society as an evolutionary process and to account for all human actions as an adaptation to environment. (Macmurray 1991a, 45) In the end, the attempt to understand human nature through the organic analogy is, for Macmurray, a structural error: \u201ca categorical misconception is a misconception of one\u2019s own nature\u2026 If, however, the error lies in our conception of our own nature, it must affect all our action, for we shall misconceive our own reality by appearing to ourselves to be what we are not, or not to be what we are (Macmurray 1961, 149).\nStage 3: The Field of the Personal As noted earlier, Macmurray was convinced that previous philosophical traditions had run their course and ended in bankruptcy. Attempts to understand persons foundered in models and analyses that were materialist or biological in nature. Macmurray\u2019s response to the situation was the development of his own Personalist philosophy. The Field of the Material and the Field of the Organic had failed us, in his view; what was needed was a turn to the Field of the Personal.\nIn making this turn, Macmurray realized that he was entering into uncharted territory. In 1929, he wrote to a friend,\nit seems to me that we have not yet begun the effort to understand the Personal at all, and that we don\u2019t yet have the logical apparatus to do it. We know persons and personal activities \u2013 nothing better: but when we try to understand them or express them we do so always buy him personal analogies \u2013 drawn from the physical or the organic world. Now the logical structure of the personal is radically different from either of these. (cited in Macmurray 1992, xi) Macmurray wrote that for a solution to the problem it was necessary to step outside of the Cartesian system altogether, to move from thought to action:\nAnd since the effect of transferring our point of view from the \u2018I think\u2019 to the \u2018I do\u2019 is to overcome the dualism which is inseparable from the theoretical standpoint, the dualism of a rational and empirical self disappears. There is no longer any need to isolate the two aspects of unity and difference in an antinomy of shared identity and sheer difference. A personal being is at once subject and object; but he is both because he is primarily agent. As subject he is \u2018I\u2019, as object he is \u2018You\u2019, since the \u2018You\u2019 as always \u2018the Other\u2019. The unity the personal is, then, to be sought in the community of the \u2018You and I\u2019, and since persons are agents, this community is not merely a matter-of-fact, but also matter of intention. (Macmurray 1991a, 27)\nFor Macmurray, to move from the Fields of the Material and Organic to the Field of the Personal is to move into a conceptual architecture that takes Person as Agent, as relational, as the starting point of philosophical thinking, to develop a philosophy of action and intention, and to include the Material in the Organic conceptions within the broader concept of Person for a comprehensive reintegration of the unity of persons. To conceive of persons, particularly persons as agents, is to move beyond the limitations of determinism and into the realm of freedom. For Macmurray, freedom is \u201cthe capacity to act\u201d (Macmurray 1991a, 98). Persons, then, are subjects, objects and agents simultaneously. The Personalist vision is inclusive rather than exclusive, encompassing the specifically human in a world in which consciousness and action are integrated in \u201ca unity of movement and knowledge.\u201d\nTo enter into the Field of the Personal is to adopt a way of seeing and a mode of activity that is inclusive; this is a crucial notion in that it allows us the place the previous movements of the modern period in context, to see the necessity of their inclusion in the concept of person, but also to realize that we are not limited to those concepts: \u201cThat the concept of \u2018a person\u2019 is inclusive of the concept of \u2018an organism, as the concept of \u2018an organism\u2019 is inclusive of the concept of \u2018material body\u2019\u201d (Macmurray 1957, 118).8\nAttaining the Field of the Personal, it becomes possible to examine the strengths and limitations of the two earlier stages of the modern philosophical period, and to come to see them as necessary but not sufficient for understanding human beings. Macmurray argues that our very understanding of these previous stages, the material world and the organic world, stems from the vision that takes place within the Personal world by a process of abstraction and limitation of attention. He argues it only as persons can we conceive of concepts of materialism and organicity. In terms of our conceptualizations of a material and biological world, It was assumed, and still is assumed in many quarters, that this way of conceiving human life is scientific and empirical and therefore the truth about us. It is in fact not empirical; it is a priori and analogical. Consequently it is not, in the strict sense, even scientific. For this concept, in the categories of understanding which go with it, were not discovered by a patient unbiased examination of the facts of human activity. They were discovered, at best, through an empirical and scientific study of the effects of plant and animal life. They were applied by analogy to the human field on the a priori assumption that human life must exhibit the same structure. (Macmurray 1991a, 45\u201346)\nThe Field of the Personal, provides us the key to unlocking the Problem of Free Will and the way out of its insolubility. Throughout much of the Western philosophical tradition in general, and in the philosophy of the modern period in particular, we have attempted to think about Free Will from the Fields of the Material and the Organic, and thus have made it an insoluble problem. It is a problem of our own making because we have been looking in the wrong place: Free Will resides not in the Material or Organic domains, but in the Field of the Personal.\nWhen we begin to look to the Field of the Personal our problem of Free Will dissolves, the material and organic aspects of human nature fall into place, and we can recognize free will as an integrated human activity, an activity of the whole Person.\nIV. Free Will in the Field of the Personal Macmurray\u2019s philosophy gives us a way of understanding the nature of Free Will and to come to see it not as a problem but as a dimension of persons. When we think about the world, we think about it as Persons. In fact and in practice we operate in a unified way. The personal includes the Material and the Organic, but can only be understood, as, Burgos also noted, by examining categories specific and unique to persons, categories that do not exist in the material and biological worlds. These categories involve our existence as persons in a personal world of interrelation, in which emotion, reason and knowledge exist in the context of human subjectivity expressed through our bodies, not bodies that we have, but bodies that we are. These dimensions of our personhood exist in interpersonal relation, and are formed and developed through relationships with other persons from the very beginnings of life; to think of Persons outside of relationships with others is a virtual contradiction in terms; we are born into relations, develop within them, and live out our lives in relations with others. Our bodies are \u201cthe somatic dimension of the person \u201cseparable only theoretically and in abstraction. There are no persons without bodies and \u201cThere is no real body without a person\u201d (Burgos 2013, 12). Our sexuality, for example, is not something that we do, not a merely biological activity, but touches \u201cthe very constitution of the subject. The person, in fact, not only possesses a male or female biology, but is a man or woman, a male or female person, because sexuality touches all human structures giving them a peculiar character\u201d that does not exist in the animal kingdom (Burgos 2013, 12). Persons are both subjects and agents, who come to know each other not in thought, but in integrated action, as doers, as agents in personal relation.\nThe Problem of Abstraction In this sense, the problem of free will reveals, itself as a problem of abstraction. Persons are integrated wholes, separable in theory, but not in practice. \u201cIn practice we understand any form of behavior better the closer it is to our room. All human knowledge is necessarily anthropomorphic, for the simple reason that we are human beings\u201d (Macmurray 1957, 116). As Macmurray describes it, we understand the material and biological words by beginning with our personal knowledge of ourselves and abstracting from them. The Organic and biological worlds exist when we abstract, when we remove, the Personal. The Material world exists when we begin with the Personal and abstract both the Personal and the Organic, leaving the world of matter in motion, following deterministic laws. In removing the Personal, we remove the domain of the specifically human; rationality, freedom, self-determination and self-transcendence. What is left is a deterministic world, either living or inorganic, toward which we direct our attention in a limited way, attending not to the personal, but to what remains when the Field of the Personal, or the Field of the Personal and Organic are removed. It is important to remember that these states exist in theory, in abstraction, but not in reality. The danger arises when the parts are reified or inflated to become a whole, when the material or the organic are enlarged and equated with the whole of reality. When this happens, all we have left are cause-and-effect, stimulus and response, causal determinism that makes it impossible even to conceive of Free Will. This process of abstraction is one in which materialist philosophies and conceptions of evolutionary biology understood exclusively in notions of genetics operate. They share a common, and a fundamental error, the mistaking of the part for the whole. In these domains there is no possibility of adequately conceiving the concept of Free Will and one is left with the necessity of stating that there is no such thing. The great irony in this process is that it is ultimately self-defeating. In a world of matter only, all that can exist is matter in motion, with all activity predetermined by previous activity in an infinite regress, the physical world in which meaning and freedom cannot exist. However, order to assert a materialist philosophy in any form, it is necessary for the materialist to step outside of materialism and speak from the Field of the Personal, the world in which he or she was formed by others, taught to speak, nurtured and developed, in order to deny that the Field of the Personal exists. To be a materialist who denies the possibility of free will is to do so as a Person exercising their Free Will in the act of denial.\nFree Will exists, it operates in us robustly, it is easily recognized from person to person, recognized in others and within ourselves; What we need to do is to look in the right place, the Field of the Personal, and avoid the well-worn habits of mind that would abstract us from this, leaving us trapped in a materialist or dualist world.\nWhat would Neuroethics look like if conceived from the Field of the Personal? We would recognize free will as an integral aspect of the human person exercised across the lifespan, in a more limited, developing way in childhood, reaching full expression in adulthood and continuing robustly (barring illness or injury) into old age. Free will in this context would necessarily be seen as an ethical, as a moral activity since it involves interactions between persons, human flourishing, and the right use of the natural world.\nThe construction of a Neuroethics in this vision would begin not with brains, but with Persons adequately understood, persons for whom a somatic dimension is a part of that personhood, a somatic dimension that includes body and brain, and from which some common moral norms can be derived. A neuroethical vision so derived would attend to human persons in all aspects, material (a descriptive project), the organic (a descriptive project), and the Personal (a descriptive and prescriptive project).\nNeuroethics, Free Will and Persons Adequately Considered A neuroethics of Free Will thus conceived would begin by examining the normal development of our rational and affective capacities, recognizing the originality of both, and their deep interconnection in the process of decision-making. It would examine the exercise of free will across the lifespan as exercised by normal, healthy individuals and apply that knowledge to the various domains with which Neuroethics is concerned, some of these being personal autonomy, consent to participation in research and medical care, and personal responsibility for our actions freely conceived and carried out, in this context including considerations of personal responsibility and our justice system. While the Material and Organic visions of person could easily do away with the need for legal system, such a system remains essential when viewed from the perspective of freely acting, responsible Persons.\nLimitations of Free Will With these conceptions in mind, and only after this has been attained, can one adequately consider limitations of Free Will. Reason and freedom were the classical complements of human action and moral responsibility. Classically there are several things thought to be impediments to freedom, to free action and thus limitations on moral responsibility including ignorance, fear, coercion and passion. The contribution of neuroscience to this picture is the deepening understanding of the structure and functioning of the human brain, including normal development and function, and conditions that can place limitations on that function including neurologic injury (e.g., traumatic brain injury) in neurologic and psychiatric illness (e.g., dementing illnesses, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, anxiety and depression, hallucinations, delusions, etc.).\nA Neuroethics moving from the Field of the Personal would not limit itself to theindividual, or to the brain function of individual, but would consider the whole person in the context of our relational world. Issues of both individual and common good would be considered, impacting on the choices made with new technologies, the allocation of resources in distributive justice, in the manner in which our scientific knowledge is put to use in a variety of circumstances.\nThe guiding value in this vision would be the good of the human person fully and adequately conceived, including categories specific to person such as reason, freedom, transcendence, and the human capacities for rationality, relationality and sexuality, the person as subject and as agent.\nI would like to conclude with a brief mention of several of the major domains of Neuroethical research as they might be impacted by the philosophical positions of Macmurray and Burgos presented here.\nCognitive Enhancement A Neuroethics grounded in personhood which encompasses the physical and the organic but does not limit itself to these might examine issues of cognitive enhancement empirically at the individual level, providing a realistic appraisal of its effectives (or lack thereof), but also see it in the broader context of societal issues including distributive justice and our understandings of health and illness; it would make recommendations based on a comprehensive review of the data, not just neurologically, but as it would impact our education system, healthcare, the workplace. It would not begin with cognitive enhancement as a given or as inevitable, but would examine these questions from the notions of both personal and common good.\nFree Will, Responsibility and the Justice System A Personalist Neuroethics would recognize the existence and activity of Free Will, and with that the reality and necessity of personal responsibility. It would not limit itself to the organic or the material, and thus would not become trapped in concepts of determinism that raise basic questions about whether personal responsibility can even exist, or whether there is a need for a justice system. It would also recognize legitimate limitations on freedom and responsibility in terms of neurologic injury or dysfunction impacting on a higher-level cognition to processes. It would work to educate judges, attorneys, and juries about the accurate and proper use of neuroimaging data, seeing it in the context of personhood and not falling into the trap of equating discrete neurologic lesions with personal responsibility or the lack thereof. It would promote the sustained and serious consideration of ethical uses of neuroimaging technologies in the courtroom, in the medical field, and in national security.\nNeuroethics and Capacity/Competency A Personalist Neuroethics would address issues of capacity and competency by beginning with an adequate, comprehensive vision of Person and seek to articulate those conditions under which personal autonomy is diminished or should be limited for an individual\u2019s safety. It would do so through consideration of the categories unique to persons, the nature of limitations on those categories through injury or illness, in the threshold below which a person would not be considered able to make decisions for themselves.\nNeuroethics and Medicine This has been, and likely will continue to be the most contentious arena in which Neuroethics has input, an area which generates the strongest of feelings across political and religious spectrums, touching on issues of when human life begins, stem cell research, abortion, assisted suicide and euthanasia, and in decisions about medical care in cases of persistent vegetative state and brain death, and treatment decisions at the end of life.\nThe Beginning of Life: Within the domain of neuroscience, various ideas have been put forth as determinants of when personhood begins. Each of these conclusions is built on an assumption of dis-integration. By this I mean that inherent in each of these attempts a false assumption that the different dimensions a person can be separated out not only abstractly for understanding, but in reality. Such assertions typically limit their attention\u00a1 to the material or organic aspects of personhood, and give no attention to the personal in interpersonal nature of human being. The fundamental flaw of this line of reasoning is to mistake the part for the whole and to reason to one\u2019s conclusions from a fragmented beginning. No such process can adequately capture the fullness of person, nor can it adequately answer the question of when life begins.\nThe End of Life: As with the beginning of life, attempts to define the moment when life ends, and when a person is no longer present are typically built on abstractions from the Personal, limitations of attention to the organic dimension of persons (which contains within it the material aspect but not the Personal). Historically, organic criteria of death have been used in medicine, previously the cessation of heartbeat and respiration currently, and, since the adoption of the Harvard criteria in 1968, the irreversible cessation of brain function. All of these definitions share of the common flaw of have attending to only one aspect of Persons, the biological, rather than Person as a whole and persons in relation. Again, the part is mistaken for the whole and decisions are made based upon a fragmented vision of person.\nInjured Lives: Neuropsychiatric and Neurological Illness Finally, Neuroethics must continue to address issues about the care and treatment of individuals with neuropsychiatric illnesses, some of which present in a predominantly psychiatric arena (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders), as well as with various types of addiction, and some which present in predominantly neurologic ways, such as neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer\u2019s disease, Parkinson\u2019s disease, or in combined presentations such as those commonly seen in Huntington\u2019s disease and frontotemporal dementia. For Neuroethics, the ethical demands of treatment of these individuals must move from a full accounting of personhood, to consider both personal and interpersonal factors, issues of capacity/competency, rationales for state intervention in psychiatric illness, and limitations of autonomy in individuals who pose a danger to society, as well as the use of medical resources, and the allocation of public funds for research.\nIn summary, Free Will exists, is an integral dimension of Personhood and can be recognized in persons fully conceived and adequately understood. In light of contemporary Personalist philosophy, the \u201cproblem\u201d of Free Will is in the end one of our own making, brought about by efforts to abstract, that is, to limit attention about persons to one or more aspects that fail to adequately describe who a person is.\nThe \u201cproblem\u201d of Free Will ceases to be a problem when persons are consistently and adequately apprehended in all their dimensions, the Material, the Organic, and the Personal, an apprehension that can occur when we move from a philosophy of thought to a philosophy of action. It also entails an examination of persons not in material or animal categories, but - following Burgos\u2019 lead - rather through categories unique to persons, including reason, freedom, and the capacity for self transcendence. When Neuroethics approaches persons in this manner, Free Will can be both recognized and preserved, Persons can be recognized as complex, integral and active, formed by and living in relation to others.\nOne implication of this process is that an adequate notion of person can only be attained through a multidisciplinary process in which science has an essential place but cannot be the only methodology; if it were, we would fall into the trap of abstraction from the Personal and approach decision-making in the domain of Neuroethics in a fragmented fashion. By adopting a multidisciplinary approach that includes the physical sciences, biological sciences and the human sciences we guard against the trap of dualism, and against conceiving the world and ourselves in a fragmented fashion. Instead, we can develop an ethical vision in a Personal world in which freedom and determinism are not antinomies but instead dimensions of personhood. To do this is to fulfill Macmurray\u2019s criteria for an adequate philosophy, a vision of person that is logically coherent and adequate to the full range of human experience which is neither material nor organic, but a personal unity encompassing these dimensions.\nA potential criticism of the position I have presented here is that locating the problem of free will in the Field of the Personal is simply transferring the same problem to a new place, leaving us with the same difficulties. While it is true that the question is here moved to a new context, that move does not mean asking the question in the same manner. By raising the question of Free Will in the Field of the Personal, and in a vision of person more complex than can be accounted for by a materialist worldview, it becomes possible to employ multiple methodologies (including but not limited to scientific reductionism, e.g. the social sciences, the humanities, legal studies) to provide a more complex, more nuanced vision of the activity of free will in human persons that more closely approximates the richness of that activity.\nThe purpose of this essay has been to consider the structural level of the free will debate, to examine the conceptual frameworks that have been employed to address free will and to ask if these structures (e.g., materialism, idealism, determinism, compatiblism, indeterminism) have been adequate to the task. My answer to that our conceptual architecture has been inadequate, leading to a situation of sustained conflict, because much of the contemporary debate has moved from a framework of physical and biological determinism that precludes a comprehensive discussion of the human capacity for free will. This framework has created a blind spot and a self-defeating conundrum; in order to argue for causal determinism, it is necessary to step outside material and biological determinism in order to argue that determinism is the whole story, thus creating a sustained logical contradiction. All proponents of determinism are persons, and can only make their arguments from the Field of the Personal, where free will resides, arguing in their activity as persons that such activity can not exist. At minimum, a broadening of our perspective can only serve to deepen the conversation and allow us to address substantive questions with greater depth and clarity.\n1. See, for example, Gazzaniga et al (2009) Cognitive Neuroscience: The Biology of the Mind,. 3rd ed. New York: W.W. Norton & Co., especially Chapter 4, \u201cMethods of Cognitive Neuroscience.\u201d\n2. Neurologist Hal Blumenfeld captures this debate: \u201cWhere is the mind and what is the mind? These questions have haunted scientists and philosophers throughout human history. Although we cannot yet answer these questions with certainty, investigation for he nervous system allows at least tentative conjectures in this realm. Although some would argue otherwise, the burden of evidence currently available suggests that the mind is manifested through ordinary physical processes located within the body. Note that these first two fundamental conjectures about where the mind is (in the body) and what the mind is (normal physical processes) remain hypotheses, perhaps with growing evidence in their favor, yet remaining unproven nonetheless. See his Neuroanatomy Through Clinical Cases, 2nd ed., \u201cA Simple Working Model of the Mind,\u201d 973 ff.\n3. Allen\u2019s brief, focused essay is in the introduction to Three British Personalist Philosophers, which gives overviews of the work of Michael Polanyi, John Macmurray and Austin Farrer. It is available through the British Personalist forum, www.britishpersonalistforum.org.uk.\n4. His works include:\n- Introducion al personalismo (2012, currently being translated into English),\n- Antropologia: una guia para la existencia (2009),\n- Reconstruir la persona. Ensayos personalistas (2009) and\n- Repenser la naturaleza humana (2007)\n5. Burgos expands on these ideas in Repensar la naturaleza humana (2007), 59\u201363, \u201cThe Greek ballast and the problem of enlargement\u201d (El lastre griego y el problema de la amplicaci\u00f3n).\n6. Burgos is drawing here on the tradition of dialogical personalism, most famously and enduringly expressed by Martin Buber in his I and Thou (Ich und Du).\n7. His works include The Self as Agent (1991), Persons in Relation (1991) and Reason and Emotion (1992).\n8. It should be noted that there is debate within the personalist philosophical community about the extent to which interpersonal relations create and define persons, either completely or partially. While a purely relational/functional understanding of persons runs the risk of assuming \u201cno relation = no person\u201d a purely individualist notion of person centered in the body and its operations runs the risk of materialsm and dualism; a balance is needed between the person and the person in relation. Also, in a critique of Macmurray\u2019s philosophy, Robin Downie wrote, \u201cLike Macmurray I hold that the ideal of community\u2019 is important, but unlike Macmurray I wish to avoid the tyranny of the personal. Macmurray says that our identity is constituted by our personal relationships. I wish to hold the more modest thesis that our identity is partly constituted by our personal relationships, but is also influenced by such factors as the environment, the arts, animals and so on. Human beings are complicated and the relationships which constitute our identity and make us flourish are correspondingly diverse.\u201d See Downie, Robin. \u201cPersonal and Impersonal Relationships,\u201d in, D. Ferguson and N. Dower, eds., John Macmurray: Critical Perspectives. New York: Peter Lang Publishing, 2002, 131.\n9.Thomas O. Buford reviews the major philosophical strands in Personalism\u2019s background in his entry, \u201cPersonalism\u201d in the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, including its roots in the Greco-Roman period of the West, Hindu philosophy in the East, and has contemporary proponents writing in both of these traditions as well as Confucianism and Islamic philosophy.

Buford, Rufus Burrows, Randall Auxier, and European philosophers such as Jan Olof Bengtsson.\nHindu Personalism, emerging from Hindu philosophy and its search for freedom\nfrom suffering and addressing such questions as the nature of the self, touching on human agency, intention, free will and identity.10\nBritish Personalism, focusing on philosophies of action typified in the works of Austin Farrer, John Macmurray and Michael Polanyi, and contemporary proponents such as Richard Allen and Charles Conti.\nIslamic personalism, which shares some common roots with classical Greek philosophy, and examines both nature of the person and of God exemplified in the work of Muhammad Iqbal, Mohammad Aziz Lahbsabi and Allhagi Manta Drammeh.\nClassical personalism looks to the Aristotelian-Thomistic tradition in the work of Jacques Maritain, Etienne Gilson, and contemporary philosophers such as Robert Spaemann and Thomas D. Williams.\nNeopersonalism, which seeks and integration of classical and modern concepts of person in a new synthesis, found in the work of Czeslaw Bartnik, Luigi Stefanini, Maurice Nedoncelle, Edith Stein, Karol Wojtyla and Juan Manuel Burgos.11\nBeauregard, James, NEUROSCIENTIFIC FREE WILL: INSIGHTS FROM THE THOUGHT OF JUAN MANUEL BURGOS AND JOHN MACMURRAY, en Garc\u00eda, Jos\u00e9 Juan (director): Enciclopedia de Bio\u00e9tica.",

The book was really good! The first part was a bit slow for me - but necessary to introduce the characters, but I started the second half last night and couldn't put it down until I was finished! And it was really good... DANG IT! I jumped on that stupid bandwagon head first and now I'm stuck on it!\nI'm excited for the movie - but whoever the guy is that is playing Edward - not cute! I'm really bummed about that. Edward needs to be EYE CANDY and this guy doesn't even have a cute voice... The guy that plays James is more attractive, I think. http://www.twilightthemovie.com/\nthat is so funny. that is exactly what i thought when i saw the preview. i want edward to be hot...not 10 yrs and pasty white :)\nSucker!!!! HA! HA!\nbut it's the COoooooool thing to do :) hahaha. welcome to the band wagon!!!!!\nand i agree... HELLO... where's the hottie? they couldn't find a better edward than THAT? what's hollywood coming to?\ni too wasn't satisfied with robert pattinson casted as edward, however.. after reading the whole series, i feel confident that the director knew what she was doing. and if stephenie herself says that him and kristen stewart are magical together, i'll take her word for it. :) ..go edward!!\nI SO agree with you that he doesn't look anything like Edward should look. You know who I wish they had? Hayden Christensen. Now THAT is a good Edward!!!!",

Each pixel on the surface of the 3D object sweeping a short distance over the air is considered as a voxel in a three-dimensional space. For the purpose of eliminating the blind spots of viewing, the voxels on the same sampling plane are interleaved in a non-planar manner by a number of dispersed columns of pixels, and realized as light spots transmitted by optical fibers from a LCD panel. When the rotating speed is adequate and the pixels on dispersed columns are timely lightened, the visual perception of three-dimensional imagery can be obtained without blind spots of observation. The realization of the proposed algorithm and the implementation of the associated mechanism prove that the display of three-dimensional objects in circular sweeping way without blind spots observation is feasible.\nKuo-cheng Liu - co-chair",

In the past decade policy makers and civic organisations have made progress in addressing these challenges. However, much remains to be done. OECD Reviews of Integrity in Education: Ukraine 2017 aims to support these efforts. The review examines systemic integrity violations in Ukraine. These include: preferential access to school and pre-school education through favours and bribes; misappropriation of parental contributions to schools; undue recognition of learning achievement in schools; paid supplementary tutoring by classroom teachers; textbook procurement fraud; and, in higher education, corrupt access, academic dishonesty, and unwarranted recognition of academic work. The report identifies how policy shortcomings create incentives for misconduct and provide opportunities for educators and students to act on these incentives. It presents recommendations to address these weaknesses and strengthen public trust in a merit-based education system. The audience of this report is policy makers, opinion leaders and educators in Ukraine.\nEarly childhood education / Pre-school education, Higher education, Primary education, Private education, Secondary education\nAcademic fraud, Cheating, Plagiarism, Access to education, Anti-corruption strategies, Legal framework, Corruption, Bribery, Fraud, Educational management, Central administration, Finance, Integrity, Private tutoring, Procurement, Students, Teachers, Textbooks / didactic materials",

        "raw_content": "New theory suggests Black holes are Holograms\nAccording to a new study published in the journal Physical Review Letters, Black holes could be Holograms \u2013Projections from flat, two-dimensional surfaces.\nWhat if Black Holes are just HOLOGRAMS? Is it possible that these \u2018dark\u2019 objects are just projections of flat, two-dimensional surfaces?\nBlack holes are definitely among the most mysterious objects ever discovered in the universe; their irresistible pull is an eternal prison that does not even allow light to escape from their grasp.\nHowever, new research proposes a completely new theory suggesting that Black Holes are HOLOGRAMS. The controversial theory was proposed by theoretical physicists who developed a new way of estimating the chaotic states present beyond the event horizons of black holes.\nAccording to calculations, even though these enigmatic celestial bodies were believed to be three-dimensional in nature, it may turn out that they are in fact two-dimensional projections. The results of the study are consistent with the holography hypothesis, a theory that suggests the universe is a TWO-DIMENSIONAL surface which we cannot observe directly.\nThe new researcher was published in the journal Physical Review Letters, and could allow scientists to obtain new information about the gravitational waves that are believed to exist inside of Black Holes.\n\u201cWe were therefore able to use a more complete and richer model compared with those done in the past in LQG, and obtain a far more realistic and robust result,\u201d says Pranzetti. \u201cThis allowed us to resolve several ambiguities afflicting previous calculations due to the comparison of these simplified LQG models with the results of semiclassical analysis as carried out by Hawking and Bekenstein,\u201d said Dr. Daniele Pranzetti, a physicist at the Max Planck Institute for Theoretical Physics in Munich, Germany.\nTo obtain their calculations, researchers used a phenomenon referred to as quantum gravity which allowed them to research the entropy, or disorder, said to exist within Black Holes. According to the theory of quantum gravity, the fabric of space-time is composed of \u2018grains\u2019 that researchers call \u2018quanta\u2019, it explores the effects of gravity at extremely small scales.\nIn the past, researchers like Professor Stephen Hawking proposed that the entropy of Black Holes is proportional to the area but not its total volume.\nCalculations looked at the gravitational impacts that collections of quanta \u2014referred to as condensates\u2014 have.\n\u201cThe idea at the basis of our study is that homogenous classical geometries emerge from a condensate of quanta of space introduced in LQG in order to describe quantum geometries,\u201d explains Pranzetti. \u201cThus, we obtained a description of black hole quantum states, suitable also to describe \u2018continuum\u2019 physics\u2014that is, the physics of space-time as we know it,\u201d said Dr Pranzetti.\nAll of this means that everything needed to understand the composition of Black Holes is found within a two-dimensional surface. The only thing scientists need to do now is understand how to translate it.\nHorizon Entropy from Quantum Gravity Condensates\nDaniele Oriti et al, Horizon Entropy from Quantum Gravity Condensates, Physical Review Letters (2016). DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.211301\nMany simplistic conclusions (like this one) are reached by simply ignoring what we don\u2019t know (which is just about everything) about dark matter and dark energy. There is a fundamental flaw in the modern scientific method in that we ignore what we don\u2019t understand instead of using the variables of x, y & z to represent the unknown.",

        "title": "Omeprazole side effects with Acid Reflux",
        "raw_content": "Side Effects of Omeprazole\nIf Lorenzo Lamas was king of the beds, Omeprazole is the king of the Gastric protectors. And he's still the king for the modest price of $2.42. It is unfortunate that the generic Viscol\u00e1tex has not been invented (the Swedes have made a hint, but apparently it also has some lumbar adverse effects). To which I go, that I miss: omeprazole long term use side effects exist and live among us. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a drug.\nWhat is omeprazole for?\nThe same for a broken that for a unstitched. It is the girl for all of the stomach and, among other missions, makes a workaround against gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer and reflux. Perhaps the best known indication among young people is that of protector when administered jointly with medications that may be aggressive to the stomach such as NSAIDs (aspirin or ibuprofen). We talked about all this in the post about remedies for heartburn.\nWhy has the side effects of omeprazole been so much talked about?\nA couple of years ago Omeprazole was the protagonist of juicy headlines that came to say something like: taking omeprazole can cause dementia. All this arose from an article published by the prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) which established a link between people taking omeprazole and those with B12 deficiency.\nThe lack of vitamin B12, in addition to being associated with megalob\u00e1stica anemia, can be one of the (multiple) origins of dementia. A dementia saw much more than an anemia, where it will stop, and in this case the association was simple:\n1-omeprazole decreases the absorption of B12\n2-B12 deficiency can cause dementia.\n3-Omeprazole causes dementia.\nAnd if we add that Omeprazole is the second most prescribed molecule in Spain (silver medal behind paracetamol and above ibuprofen), the media spree was insured. All against Omeprazole.\nIn case anyone remains concerned, the other side effects of omeprazole can be consulted on its technical data sheet and are usually mild and infrequent adverse reactions.\nWhy does Omeprazole decrease vitamin B12 absorption?\nOmeprazole belongs to the group of so-called proton pump inhibitors. This cool name, as well as a heavy polygoner band, means that omeprazole inhibits or decreases the production of acid in the stomach.\nVitamin B12, on the other hand, goes through the helpless Damsel's life (also called Cobalamin, which is a very damsel-forsaken name) and needs to always go from the arm of a hombret\u00f3n in the form of a protein. In food, vitamin B12 is well-grasped for its protein and when it reaches the stomach, thanks to hydrochloric acid, it is released from its arm. Once free, as our cobalamin, as well as a helpless damsel, is a little fresh, changes boyfriend and joins another new protein, the intrinsic Factor. The intrinsic Factor is who is going to take you for a walk through the organism so that it can be absorbed.\nWe could say that Omeprazole is a short-rolls that modifying the PH prevents vitamin B12 from releasing its protein and changing grooming.\nI assure you that all this metaphor of the helpless damsel and the intrinsic factor wins if you see the theatre that we assemble in the writing of 20minutes to represent...\nAre there only cobalamin absorption problems with omeprazole?\nOmeprazole is short-rolls but all of its rich siblings are also: Lansoprazole, Pantroprazol or Omeprazole. And let's not forget about your Valencia cousins, Famotidine and Ranitidine.\nIs vitamin B12 deficiency common?\nIn general, vitamin B12 deficiency is not too common for several reasons:\n1-It is a vitamin found in foods of frequent consumption like eggs, milk, meat and fish (in this case it is advisable that the people who do not consume these foods, or consume them in little quantity, are supplement).\n2-In the liver there is a vitamin B12 store that can be pulled in case of shortage. In addition, there is an interesting recycling system by which much of the B12 that secretes the liver through bile is reused through a very efficient circulatory system. We have already commented that the vitamin B12 is very fresh and very savvy and before going through the sewer it hangs on the arm of another. That's what it is.\n3 \u2013 In the event that this deficiency exists, it has a quick and inexpensive solution with supplementation (for example with the classic blisters of Optovite or similar that are administered on a weekly basis).\nHow do we know if we have low levels of vitamin B12?\nIt is not too easy for one to know how vitamin B12 is going because, for starters, vitamin B12 does not appear in routine analytics (as iron appears, for example). In this case, the doctor must specifically request that vitamin B12 be measured.\nThe thing is complicated a tad because although the data of this vitamin in the analytical show adequate levels, can be a false positive. Why? Among other causes, there are foods (such as some algae and yeasts) that contain vitamin B12 analogues, that is, molecules with a similar structure that make up the results but are not really able to fulfill that function in the organism. I mean, you look at the analytics and you're so happy thinking that everything is in order, but you may not really be.\nTo really know what the levels of vitamin B12 are, you have to do another kind of less frequent tests yet. The nutritionist Lucia, in her blog tell me you eat, explains in detail what evidence is. Lucia has written three fantastic entries dedicated to B12, which I recommend especially if you are health professionals.\nWhat foods are rich in B12 and should you take to avoid the deficit?\neggs, milk, meat and fish are the main source of Cobalamin. There are no plant foods that contain vitamin B12 in significant quantities (if it is contaminated). The algae and yeasts attributed to the presence of vitamin B12 actually contain that fake vitamin B12 we were talking about.\nVegetarians, especially those who do not eat eggs and milk, should get cobalamin either by fortified foods or by supplementation. Securing the right levels through fortified foods is complicated: you have to juggle drinks, soy yogurts and fortified cereals, which on the other hand may not be convenient to abuse in the diet. If we consider the non-negligible price of these products, in my opinion supplements with cyanocobalamin are the most convenient and economical way to ensure adequate levels of vitamin B12.\nAnd yes, if anyone is thinking about it, the vegetarians who take omeprazole should pay special attention to this point. Fortunately this is an easy-to-solve contingency.\nIs it really that simple that omeprazole produces dementia?\nIf we use omeprazole as a gastric protector occasionally or for a not too long period of time, in principle we should not worry because the odds of lowering vitamin B12 levels significantly are very low.\nIf we use Omeprazole for life (as with many older people as a result of their polymedication), the doctor should assess the case individually and decide if some rest of the antiulcerous is done, if it is necessary to supplement with vitamin B12, or if you don't need to do anything. In general, the risk of using omeprazole is generally considered low compared to the benefit obtained.\nWhat would be some of the symptoms?\nAlthough I have commented that really the odds of being affected are low, if someone who reads this post is worried because it has been taking omeprazole for a long time and also does not feed too well, these are some of the symptoms that usually appear in the first place: tingling, numbness, loss of sensitivity or disorientation, loss of reflexes or lack of coordination. All this can be the first step towards schizoid or similar to Alzheimer's pictures and early detection is fundamental. Before the first symptom of this type should go to the doctor.\nThe Council of the pharmacy:\nToday more than ever: tranquility and good food.\nPeace of mind because we must always put into quarantine any scandalous headline about the imminent death of drug use and, before making hasty decisions, read the small print. And if in doubt, consult your pharmacist.\nGood Food because a balanced diet is key in preventing many types of illnesses, even those that, as in this case, could be drug-induced. In short, eating under conditions is much more complicated than omeprazole posing a threat. If we suspect that our food is not the most appropriate or does not meet the requirements, supplementation would be indicated. Specifically the excess of vitamin B12 is excreted by urine so it would be better to pass than not to arrive.\nFortunately, a study published by SEFAC a year after the publication of those tabloids headlines, concludes that the population has lost that media fear to the side effects of omeprazole and that care physicians Primary continue to Prescribe normally.\nPrivacy Policy | Sitemap | Website Development Internet Marketing by ClickTraffic",

[2] [3]\nShort-term sleep debt and long-term sleep deprivation can contribute to mood disorders and a number of other health risks.\nSleep debt refers to the difference between the amount of sleep your body needs, versus the amount of sleep you actually get. As you deprive yourself of sleep (undergo sleep derivation), your total sleep deficit builds over time resulting in long-term sleep debt. Long-term sleep debt and sleep deprivation in general have negative health effects.\nExample: If you get 5 hours of sleep, and needed 7, you have 2 hours of sleep debt/deficit for that day. If this happens every day of the week, you have a 14 hour sleep debt/deficit.\nA video discussing how much sleep a person needs and whether or not you can catch up on it.\nShort-Term Sleep Debt Versus Long-Term Sleep Debt\nShort-term sleep debt and long-term sleep debt are loose terms, but generally they refer to sleep deprivation added up over a number of days:\nShort-term sleep debt refers to sleep debt over a short period of time, perhaps a week or so.\nLong-term sleep debt refers to sleep debt accumulated over weeks, months, or even years.\nSleep Debt Versus Sleep Deprivation\nSleep deprivation refers to being deprived of sleep, typically over consecutive days; sleep debt is a measure of insufficient sleep over a period of time (x hours per night). Sleep debt over time can have health risks similar to consecutive sleep deprivation.\nIs Sleep Debt Cumulative?\nWhile we can\u2019t measure exactly how sleep debt builds up, we can measure the effects of going X amount of time with X hours of sleep debt. In general sleep debt is cumulative and can lead to health problems.\nFor example: about two weeks of less than 6 hours sleep a night reduces alertness and performance to a level equivalent to a full 24 hours of sleep deprivation; a week of only four hours sleep a night is equivalent to 2-3 days without any sleep; etc. [1]\nHow Much Sleep Should Someone Get?\nThe average healthy adult needs about 7 1/2 to 9 hours of sleep, while children need more.

We have seen 5 \u2013 10 and 7 -8 hours as the recommendation. [8]\nHow Much Sleep Do People Actually Get?\nA study from the UK showed people got an average of about 6 1/2 hours a night of sleep. [8] This could equate to an hour or more of sleep debt a night for those who fall into the \u201caverage\u201d category. As with any statistical analysis there will be outliers, people who need more or less than the average group.\nIn general, it seems to be common to get less than the ideal amount of sleep in modern western society. Consider that our ancestors probably got much more sleep than we do now due to a lack of artificial light and long hours of darkness in many regions of the world during the winter, and then got less sleep than we now during longer summer hours, particularly in areas of the world where there is a large difference in the day/night balance. In fact it\u2019s believed that people practiced something called segmented sleep. It\u2019s likely that many of us still require more sleep then we are getting on average.\nReasons Why People Don\u2019t Get Enough Sleep\nIn the same UK study mentioned above, the number one reason for missing sleep wasn\u2019t just long hours are watching TV, it was actually worry due to financial insecurity (i.e. money worries). [8]\nListed below are the top five reasons that are giving Britons sleepless nights: [8]\nMoney worries (32%)\nFamily issues (25%)\nWork stress (18%)\nJob security worries (17%)\nUnfinished household chores (16%)\nHealth Risks of Sleep Debt and Sleep Deprivation\nResearch has shown that even missing a few days of lost sleep can have adverse effects including: daytime sleepiness, worsened daytime performance, an increase in molecules that are a sign of inflammation in the body, and impaired blood sugar regulation. [2]\nIt is also thought that long-term sleep debt may compound issues potentially causing irreparable damage.\nA diagram of the negative health effects of sleep deprivation on human physiology.\nSleep deprivation from sleep debt may also cause: [4]\ndevelopment of false memory\nperiorbital puffiness, commonly known as \u201cbags under eyes\u201d or eye bags\nincreased stress hormone levels\nincreased risk of fibromyalgia\nnystagmus (rapid involuntary rhythmic eye movement)\nNOTE: It should be noted that getting too much sleep may have it\u2019s own health risks, so the best advice is to simply pay attention to your body and try to fall within your own normal sleeping times.\nThe Study That Shows You Can Catch Up on Sleep Debt (Somewhat)\nWith the above in mind, Penn State University College of Medicine placed 30 volunteers on a sleep schedule that mimicked a sleep-restricted workweek followed by a weekend with extra recovery sleep. [2] [3]\nThey found that sleepiness and inflammation rose with a lack of sleep, but returned after the period of recovery sleep.\nThey found that stress rose with a lack of sleep, but lowered after recovery sleep.\nThey also found that attention suffered during sleep deprivation and didn\u2019t return after recovery sleep.\nThis study had essentially concluded that while some sleep debt can be \u201crepaid\u201d, recovery sleep over just a single weekend may not reverse all the effects of sleep lost during the workweek.\nIn general, it is thought that you can catch up on short-term sleep debt, and may be able to offset some of the effects of long-term sleep debt. Long-term sleep debt, on the other hand, may have some non-reversible side effects.\nIs There Evidence That You Can Catch up on Long-Term Sleep Debt?\nThere is no clear evidence that one can or can\u2019t catch up on long-term sleep debt, this is because most studies have focused on short-term sleep debt. [5]\nConclusion: A person can catch up on sleep debt somewhat effectively, but studies have had more luck showing the effectiveness of catching up on short-term debt rather than long-term debt. Mostly because there have been few studies on catching up on long-term sleep debt.\n\u201cHOW MUCH SLEEP DO WE NEED? SLEEP DEBT AND SLEEP DEPRIVATION\u201c. Howsleepworks.com.

        "raw_content": "Peace and blessing in Jesus\u2019 name! Last edition, I taught on the origin of a Christian home. Today, I want to show you the characteristics of a Christian home.\nChrist-like manner\nA family that is truly Christian is Christ-like, which means that its members will treat each other as each would like to be treated. The Word of God says: Therefore 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 (Matthew 7:12). While Jesus commanded this for all relationships, it certainly would have special bearing within a Christian family.\nEvery member of the family accepts Christ.\nTo each member of the family, the acceptance of Christ (being a Christian) will serve as a foundation on which the home is built. When I say a Christian home, it means a home where the people who dwell there are born again. That is, they have all accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and personal Saviour.\nAccepting Scriptural responsibility.\nA Christian home is a home where all who reside there accept their scriptural responsibility. The Christian father should not provoke his children to wrath but should nurture them in the chastening and admonition of the Lord. This charge was made by Apostle Paul to all Christian fathers in his letter to the Ephesians (Ephesians 6:4).The Christian son and daughter will obey their Parents in the Lord (Ephesians 6:1-3). Jesus reaffirmed the ancient law: \u201cHonour thy father and thy mother.\u201d He strongly rebuked those Scribes and Pharisees, who sought loopholes in the law and ways of avoiding it (Matthew 15:4).\nOpen honesty and integrity\nA Christian home is a home where open honesty and integrity are practised, without hypocrisy; thereby, building complete confidence and trust. There is so much hypocrisy in the world, which also reflects in the actions of men. But, such is not found in a Christian home. It is very vital for you to know, therefore, that in a Christian home, there must be complete honesty on the part of parents with children and children with parents.\nHospitality is a willingness to share, with discernment, what God has given us, which include our families, homes, finances, and food. It is an attitude of stewardship, where we do not own anything because we are merely the caretaker as the real owner is God. He desires that we share His blessings and love in reverence and gratitude to Him. In relationships, it is honouring the boundaries of others, and sharing all we have without strings attached. (Matthew 25:34-43; Luke 10:30-37; Romans 12:13: 16:3-16; 1Timothy 5:10; Hebrews 13:1-3; 1 Peter 4:7-11; 3 John 5-8).\nThere is a catalyst that makes hospitality easy; it is called \u2018brotherly love\u2019. The Word of God says: Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality (Romans 12:10, 13). This is what makes you want to reach out to others and give them a helping hand. It is what makes you to share what you have with others.\nBrotherly love can find expression through giving. It could be a cup of water, a meal, money, a warm smile, a listening ear, or whatever is within your reach to give. Don\u2019t eat all your food and drink all your water alone. Remember that the liberal soul shall be made fat (Proverbs 11:25). Hospitality is not really in what is given, but in the way it is given. Philemon ensured that he refreshed the bowels of the saints; therefore he could be called a true brother (Philemon 7). As Christians, we are all brothers and sisters since we have the same Father; and except we relate with one another on the basis of love, we cannot please Him.\nThis was the strength of the first century Church. No one had a need because those who had eagerly distributed to others who had none; they had all things in common (Acts 2:44-45). As a result of this display of brotherly love, God\u2019s power was evident in their midst. You must be ready to be sold out to hospitality in your home; it\u2019s the path to God\u2019s presence. You can make it a point of duty to bring great joy and consolation to members of the household of faith.\nThe grace to practice the characteristics listed above only comes from God. If, peradventure, you, the reader, is not born again and you want to accept Jesus as your Lord and personal Saviour, then say this prayer in faith: Dear Lord Jesus Christ, I come to You today. I am a sinner. Forgive me my sins and cleanse me with Your Blood. I accept You as my Lord and personal Saviour. Make me a child of God today. Thank You for delivering me from sin and satan to serve the living God and thank You for accepting me into Your Kingdom.",

        "title": "Food distribution - How it all began",
        "raw_content": "WHO WE ARE AND HOW IT ALL BEGAN\nIn 1973 the Ministerial Assc. of the Five-Cities area asked a group of women from the area Churches to host a \u201cWorld Day of Prayer.\u201d This is an ecumenical event that is celebrated worldwide in March every year.\nBecause of this, bonds were formed and the ladies decided that it would be nice to meet socially once a month. After a while of this, they thought that they should be doing something more than just socializing. Thus, Five Cities Christian women\u2019s group, consisting of only four ladies, was formed. Their mission was to feed the needy, and to provide layettes, through Social Services for new mothers.\nOne of the original members , Edna Gilbert, offered her single car garage to store and distribute the food. In those days, feeding about seven families was the maximum. At that time, the food was delivered to the clients. As the need became greater in the community, a new location was needed. Bethel Baptist Church in Grover Beach offered a room in their Church, where we remained for six years. After that, Central Coast Baptist Church also in Grover Beach offered to clear a spot at their location for our outreach. There we remained until 1998. Then the Church began to grow in membership and needed to expand and it was time to find a new location.\nAfter about a year of uncertainty and trying to line up a new facility, the members of the Kiwanis Club of Pismo Beach suggested that they construct for us, a building of our own. With their help and that of the community, and the offer of use of their land for a place to construct the building from Central Coast Baptist Church, we were able to open our doors in October of 1998.\nWe are all unpaid volunteers. Donations of food come from local Super Markets. With monetary donations from Churches, individuals and other groups we purchase food from the Food Coalition at a reduced price and Farmer\u2019s Markets. We also look for sales at the various stores throughout the county and in the Santa Maria area. There are in the group shoppers, a morning crew that stocks the shelves, workers that work in the afternoon, between 2 and 4 P.M. to distribute the food. In the event we have surplus food, or non-food donations we share with other agencies.\nFrom those early beginnings of four ladies, working to supply food to only seven families, we now serve an average 600 families, totaling approximately 2,500 individuals per month. Our ranks have grown also, we now have eighty to one hundred volunteers, including men. Our expenditures per month for this ministry is $2,000.00 to over $3,000.00.\nWe are open five days a week, Two to four p.m., with the exception of Holidays. Clients may come twice a month and are given, eggs, butter, fresh vegetables and fruit, when we have them, canned when we run out. Whatever meat we have. Cereal, peanut butter and plentiful bread for everyone. Also, dry staples such as rice or beans are given. Basically, we give of what we have and what is needed. The goal is that each family has protein, fresh produce and Bread\nChristmas boxes with food and toys for the children are given out to those who signup. About 50 to 60 such baskets are prepared. At one time we had a group of ladies called the Joy Singers who would go to Wyndom Residence and the Arroyo Grande Care Center to sing for and with the residents. Stories and devotionals were also read.\nLayettes are still put together for the new mothers. The Quilter\u2019s Guild often donates quilts to us for that purpose also.",

Prior to Jonathan Rose Companies' involvement in the project, the Library Board acquired a lot adjacent to the existing building and retained the services of a library consultant to generate an extensive report on the current state of the Library and the needs of a facility serving a community such as Mamaroneck.\nJonathan Rose Companies joined the project during the architectural selection process and participated in a series of intensive interviews and site visits leading to the choice of BKSK Architects as designers for the new facility. The Library's Building Committee spent Fall 2005 considering three options for the size of the project. The Board chose to pursue the most ambitious project in order for the Library to accommodate both the current and future needs of the community.\nBKSK Architects is working with special emphasis on creating an environmentally responsible building designed to LEED Silver standards. Because the building's grossly inefficient mechanical systems will be replaced, it is hoped that the additional 20,000 square feet of space will add only nominally to the operating costs of the facility once energy-efficient systems are installed. Similarly, with better spatial organization and sightlines, additional staff will be kept at a minimum while providing enhanced services already in strong demand at the outdated building.\nRenovation and expansion of Cultural Facility",

        "title": "Where Do You Get Your News? - Financial Slacker",
        "raw_content": "Coming off controversies surrounding coverage of the US presidential election and with the recent shooting incident at a pizza parlor that was named in a fake news story about the Clintons, I got to thinking about where you get your news today.\nIn the past, newspapers and television were the two main sources where you would get your news. But honestly, I don\u2019t even know if they still deliver an actual newspaper anywhere anymore. And if so, I assume that an even smaller number actually get it delivered everyday.\nDoes Anyone Still Read a Newspaper?\nI regularly read the digital versions of two newspapers \u2013 the local paper and the Wall Street Journal. I also tend to watch the local news in the mornings while we\u2019re getting ready and a cable news show in the evening before going to bed.\nBut I\u2019ve never watched the national network news regularly. That was more for my grandparents generation. Their schedules were predictable. They left the office at 5:00, got home by 5:30, and had the network news on by 6:00. That never worked in my family\u2019s schedule. School activities, sports, and work didn\u2019t revolve around that schedule. The national network news is broadcast too early in the evening.\nWhat has taken the place of newspapers and network news are the always-on cable news shows and the thousands of online and social media sources.\nObviously, a large number of people rely on Facebook and Twitter for their news and information. And while I understand why that\u2019s the case, it makes me a little sad. It\u2019s not just a sense of nostalgia for the good old days, but it\u2019s because newspapers and television news tended to go into much greater depth on stories than you find on social media. And because there was less competition for news, those outlets tended to focus less on sensationalism, ratings, and the entertainment value of news and more on the stories themselves.\nToday\u2019s news organizations are looking for viewers and ratings as much as anyone else. And headlines grab ratings more than in-depth reporting.\nIs There a Bias in Social Media News?\nA positive aspect of social media taking on a greater share of how people get their news is removing the bias that exists in traditional news reporting. One of the great things touted about social media as a news source is that while traditional news organizations decide what is news and how to report it and thus are inherently biased, social media is a neutral platform.\nBut while that sounds good, it\u2019s not entirely accurate. At the very least, social media as a news source is biased by the users of that platform. And as was made evident during the campaign, there can be a bias in determining which stories get highlighted in news feeds. And even more significant, because there is less editorial oversight, there is a much greater potential for fake news on social media than on a traditional news outlet.\nTo counter this, Facebook has recently indicated that they may start doing a better job vetting stories for accuracy. But the more they intervene, the more they risk introducing an editorial bias into their content.\nWherever you get your news from, don\u2019t just blindly accept its authenticity. Realize that even if the facts are accurate, there are still biases in all forms, from what gets covered to how it gets reported.\nDo additional research taking into account differing opinions. Stay away from only relying on sources that reinforce an already held belief and instead, find sources that challenge your point of view.\nReaders, where do you get your news?\nPrevious Post: \u00ab Millennials Will Soon Be In Charge \u2013 Are You Ready?\nNext Post: 2016 In Review: Looking Back Over the Past Year \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Submitted By lovelylady07\nJason\u2019s Problem Solving\nThe root of Jason problems is, Jason failed to put forth an effort, to learn the material needed for class, after he had counted his instructor off as lacking the skills it takes to properly teach the class. Once Jason realized his instructors way of teaching the material was not good for him to understand, he should have addressed his instructor, to let his instructor know. He should of approach his instructor in a respectful way and in a timely manner. He could have let the instructor know then that he is having trouble with the assigned material. Jason also should have made sure he used all of the allowed time in lab to complete his lab work. He doesn\u2019t know if attending lab would have helped him gain a better understanding or not, if he didn\u2019t stay the complete lab time assigned. Jason needs to understand that we will come across people and instructors throughout his whole life that he may not understand but that doesn\u2019t mean he don\u2019t have to take the time out to see how he can still learn from that person or situation. Jason\u2019s instructor shouldn\u2019t have waited till close to end of the semester to talk with Jason. If his instructor would have come to him early and told him that she was concerned that he wouldn\u2019t be able to pass due to not turning in labs, they could of came up with a way to help him. They would have been able to come up with the root of why he is having a difficult time completing his lab assignments. If the instructor would of approach Jason in a more corned way rather then stating he would be most likely to fail, then this could of alleviated him getting angry because he still had time to complete the labs she just felt he most likely wouldn\u2019t or couldn\u2019t complete them in time. Like the saying goes it\u2019s not always what you say but how you say it that matters.\u2026...\n...PROBLEM-SOLVING PROCESS Restating the Problem The problem was discussed in detail in the previous assignment. The brief summary is that health problems of a close friend's family has left her emotionally drained. The time constraints of assisting with the medical treatment program have left her unable to properly focus on work and family considerations. Her inability to care for work matters leaves her with a sense of guilt and concern that she might be viewed negatively. In like manner, her inability to interact with her family as she previously had has left her bereft of normal support mechanisms. The loss of normalcy is as much the issue as is the serious health problem itself. Thus, the situation can be divided into two major elements: (a) the family health problem and (b) the accompanying disruptions to normal life. The health problem itself cannot be fixed or changed (except by the already progressing treatments). Therefore, what can be addressed is the emotional effects and the change in routine. Investigate the Problem The problem then must first be isolated. Each component can be addressed individually. The two broad themes are scheduling and emotional management. In the first case, the points are the lack of time and the feeling of being harried at all times. The time constraints of the medical program create this feeling. Investigating the problem calls for looking into how to better schedule time during family medical problems. Tips in this......\n...The Case of the Filing System I had to really give this assignment some thought since most of my problem solving decision have to do with how to make my job more efficient. I had to consider if any of my decision-making or problem-solving solutions had ever affected the culture of the company in any way. Since, I have never held an official position as a manager or had the ability to manage a project within a company I kept running into a road block in deciding what decision or problem I had experienced in my current or pass workplace that I could discuss. In thinking about this I realized that sometimes the decision-making or problem-solving that can have a big impact on the company is a big way can be the smallest contribution an individual employee can make. In my experience in working, I have realized that you are only as effective as you are organized. In saying this, my discussion is based on the filing system at a pass job that was a huge problem for the accounting department. The current filing system in the accounts payable department was time consuming and not efficient. It was next to impossible to find files or file anything without fear of never finding your files. A major problem with the current filing system was that you had too many years in one location. It is very important when working in any area of accounting that you keep accurate records for auditing reasons. These records not only affect the individual employee, but the company......\n...University of Phoenix\t| Solving a Problem\t| Wedding Day Disaster\t| | Rachel Bronson\t| 12/10/2012\t| | Step One: Finding a Problem Challenges are something that doesn\u2019t always have to be found, since occasionally they will happen in the shape of an obvious issue or problem. In other examples, they won't always present in this way, they may offer as a chance to improve a present situation. It's a good habit to be prepared for as well as continuously searching for a problem to fix. Step Two: Stating the Problem Find the best method to express the issue or problem. While doing so, think about using as many solutions as is possible since every solution will open up different doors as well as offer different suggestions. Selecting the right solution is the most difficult part of this process, and it may be better to wait to determine which solution to use until later in the creative process when we have got more facts as well as suggestions available. Step Three: Research the Problem Analyze and get any kind of connected information to deal with the issue or problem at hand. Appropriate investigative ways incorporate thinking about experiences, getting any related information through recently experience, getting interviews of people educated on the subject matter, or old-fashioned study. Getting any information to help come up with a solution will only benefit you in the long run. Step Four: Come up with a Solution Discuss and gather as many......\n...Problem Solving Renae L. Hayworth BEH225 Janurary 20, 2012 Ann Reed Problem Solving \u201cTrial and Error, information retrieval, algorithms, and heuristics an all assist at problem solving. There are two ways most people think. Divergent thinking is usually someone who is open minded and can think outside the box. Convergent thinking can be thought of thinking inside the box or narrow minded thinking\u201d (Morris & Maisto, 2010). When I try to solve a problem, I tend to think outside the box. However, my methods are never the same, depending on the situation. Trial and error are great if it is an easy problem. For example, buying new pants, I know this can be an obstacle. When I was young I could just go and pick out my size and leave. I never had to try on a pair of paints because my body didn\u2019t change much. As I have gotten older and now have a child, my body has changed. I know have to grab pants that I think will fit and try them on. Not all woman jeans are made the same; some sizes are smaller or bigger than other brands. This can be a struggle and therefore, I need to use trial and error. I grab let\u2019s say three pairs of pants and one will fit. This will be the ones I buy. Information retrieval is something I think of as when I studied for my driver\u2019s license. I needed experience but I needed to study the driver\u2019s manual. This helped me learn the rules of the road, because these rules of the road will keep me safe.

This is something his father and I have weekly discussions about. The problem is my son is overweight for his age and height and we want him to be a healthier weight. The issue is that his father believes he does not eat a healthy diet and I disagree with this. His father only sees and spends time with our son every other weekend and assumes that the diet I feed him is full of fast food and candy. I spend every day with my son and almost the 2 days every other weekend that he is with his father and know that he does eat a healthy diet that I prepare for him. The way that I distinguish what is a problem and what is an issue in this situation is by thinking about the main thing we both agree on and what we disagree on to some extent. In this situation the main thing we both agree on is that my son could be at a healthier weight, this is the problem. Something we disagree on to some extent is weather my son is eating a healthy diet, this is the issue. Another way is to ask myself the following questions to determine whether it was a problem or an issue. If the answers to these questions are yes then the subject is an issue and not a problem. If not, then it is a problem and not an issue. Does the subject arouse...\n...Problem-Solving Process part 1 Buddy Kemp HUM/111 April 27, 2014 Deborah Arnold M.Ed. Problem-Solving Process part 1 A problem is defined as a situation that is unacceptable. An issue is when two people disagree. The difference is that a problem can be solved easily by coming up with a solution that will fix the problem or make it better. An issue would be resolved when the two people who are disagreeing decide to agree on the view that makes more sense. For example, if I had a problem with my sewage not going down properly. I would seek help to tell me what the problem is. If I were told, the problem is because of tree roots getting into the pipes and keeping the water from being able to get through, the solution would be simple. The solution would be to get a plumber to come in and get all of the roots out of the pipes. This problem would then be resolved. An issue on the other hand, could be two people who disagree about Obama care. A solution to this would be much more complicated. In order to resolve this issue, people who are in disagreement, would need to decide which view is more reasonable. A problem that we are experiencing at the moment is with my son. My son, who is 14, stays out all hours of the night, takes off when he feels like it, and he is using drugs. When he is faced with consequences of his actions, he feels that he has done nothing wrong and should be able to do what he wants when he wants.

This topic will be the most difficult to put together, as I will write about a dysfunctional mother. Before she became the dysfunctional mother she had a promising future. When I was in high school I met the mother of my daughter, we fell for each other and got married. Decided we wanted to start a family after a year of being married, we felt it was time. We got pregnant and lost the baby girl at 10 weeks, we were devastated, but we weren\u2019t giving up. Month goes by and we learn we are pregnant once again, this time we took the proper medical steps that we didn\u2019t know about before. We learned we were pregnant right after 9/11, which to us made our pregnancy that much more exciting. Time goes on, life choices have broken me and her up. Our daughter, that\u2019s now 12 years, wasn\u2019t 2 years old yet. I have often wondered to myself, if we didn\u2019t get divorced would she be this way. Is this truly my fault? Then I realize she made her choices which put her where she is today. Since her and I broke up, we have both moved on and started separate lives but always connected. She had gotten remarried and had a new life with three children (2 his 1 hers). She had settled into her life happily, at least that\u2019s how she showed herself to the public.

No matter the size these problems all need solving, but keep in mind the objective is to choose the best solution. We must practice our problem-solving skills often to enhance them. Knowing the perceived problem, identifying the real problem, and applying the Building Blocks of the Heuristics are a few of the known methods in problem-solving. A common mistake made today in problem-solving is not knowing the perceived problem. The perceived problem can have your attention misled to something less important than the actual problem and only focused on treating the symptoms, which can give us quick satisfaction but temporary results. Like \u201cthe leak\u201d example referred in chapter 1 the perceived problem seemed to be the leaking on the floor making a mess. Solution was putting a bucket under leak to catch the water, quick satisfaction but temporary results. Identifying the real problem can be a little tricky because it\u2019s a lot more difficult to find and can be often overlooked. The real problem in \u201cthe leak\u201d example used in chapter 1 was the cause of the leak. If they find the cause of the leak and fix it the problem is fixed no leaks, no buckets, mess, and best of all long term results. Now the thought of never making a mistake or faulty judgments is unreal but methods and techniques such as \u201cthe Building Blocks of the Heuristic\u201d......\n...1. I think I am a problem- solving person because I take my time to understand all the facts accurately, and look for strategies for coming up with solution. \u201cGood problem solvers are optimistic about the possibilities for solving a problem through a careful, persistent analysis. They start by breaking the problem into parts starting at a point where they can make some progress, and working from there. They are active in trying different problem solving methods, such as making diagrams, asking themselves questions, and trying to pin down abstractions as concrete examples.\u201d 2. The characteristic I think I need to improve is that I do not know where to start when doing a project, essay, etc. 3. The way I think I can improve the characteristic of not checking for accuracy is by starting to re-check every step of the problem, going step by step approaching all the details, and re-read the instructions from the beginning, to avoid any guessing. Another way to improve is try to carry-out a self- testing procedure and test my own answers by not following my intuition and check for accuracy in my answers before finish and handle the assignment. 4.

Jason leaves early and doesn\u2019t stay to for the whole class and that gives the instructor a reason to no longer try and help Jason pass the class since he isn\u2019t putting for all of his efforts in passing. Jason isn\u2019t applying himself like the instructor wants him to and Jason blames the instructor for him failing the class instead of himself. The instructor seems to understand that some things may come up outside of class but Jason leaves class early every week instead of trying to prove to his instructor that he is willing to work hard and make up the late or missed assignments. Jason should let the instructor know why he doesn\u2019t stay for the entire class every week. Jason may be leaving early because his employer may not be working around his school schedule, or Jason could be a single dad and doesn\u2019t have anyone to pick-up or watch his children while he is in class. Regardless Jason should inform the instructor about these issues so it doesn\u2019t look like Jason just doesn\u2019t want to be in class and isn\u2019t applying himself. 1. Jason needs to accept the fact that he is 100% the problem 2. The Dean should tell Jason that he needs to have a meeting with the instructor to see if there is any way he could accept late completed work. 3.

In our families and our work environments we are faced with a multitude of issues that require making decisions made with others. Some of these decisions are small and do not have a long term impact on our lives. Examples of these might be where we will go to dinner tonight, what program we will watch on television, or what movie we will see. Other decisions are significant and require substantial consideration because of the potential impact they will have, both on our lives and our relationships with others. Examples of these might be whether we should sell our house and move, should we send our child to a private school, is it time for a nursing home for an aging parent. Unless we live in total isolation, we are, by necessity, involved with problem solving and negotiating with others at some level as a regular part of our lives. Working with interests is a key concept in collaborative problem solving. An interest is the underlying need or concern that a party is trying to have satisfied. It is the thing that is motivating someone to seek a solution. A statement that describes one possible solution to meet that need or concern is a position. When we go beyond the position to uncover the needs and concerns, we create an opportunity to explore a variety of options or possible solutions that we may not have previously considered.

I have contacted the owner of the hotel to figure out some solutions to the problem, he stated to me that I cannot hire any more personnel, however I can change the schedule and I can give the housekeepers overtime to be able to cover the work load. The first solution to the problem would be for me to extend the work day for the housekeepers on the days they work, or I can bring all house keepers in every day rotating there days off to every other week. The solution I decided on was to bring all the house keepers in on a daily basis rotating there days off to every other week, this will require the owner to pay overtime for their required hours to cover the workload. Some things that could cause my plan to not work would be that housekeepers could not show up for work or arrive late to work causing the problem to continue. In addition they could also get tired of the current schedule and quit all together. I have evaluated the problem after putting my solution into motion, all housekeepers are enjoying the extra hours and the hotel has had over 90% up time with clean rooms, in addition the owner is also pleased with the new schedule as well.

The text states, \u201cDecision making refers to the \u201cpassing of judgment on an issue under consideration\u201d and \u201cthe act of reaching a conclusion or making up one\u2019s mind.\u201d Engleberg and Wynn also agree that \u201cgroup decision making results in a position, opinion, judgment, or action.\u201d (Engleberg and Wynn, 2010). The text also states that \u201cproblem solving is a more complex process in which groups analyze a problem and develop a plan of action for solving the problem or reducing its harmful effects.\u201d (Engleberg and Wynn, 2010). I am currently the president of the youth department at my church. Not only is decision making vital to having a successful group, but problem solving as well. There are four other adults that make up the group and are responsible for a specific unit of the department. The age range is six to nineteen years old. The youth are from diverse economic backgrounds, and their problems vary from one extreme to the other. Some are members of the church and some are not.

        "raw_content": "in: BUCS, Sheffield Sport, Sport\nThe University of Sheffield Women\u2019s Netball 1s thrashed York St John University 1s 62-28 in an exhilarating match.\nBoth teams put up a strong performance in the first quarter, scoring back-to-back goals in the first few minutes of the game. In the midst of the nail-biting first quarter, the Black and Gold found a breakthrough and lead the game 12-6.\nIn the second quarter, Sheffield continued their spectacular performance with the girls scoring four consecutive goals in the opening of the second quarter, and York St John found it impossible to break the streak.\nYork St John struggled to find the breakthrough they needed in the second quarter while their opponents remained consistent with their attacks and went into the break with a 25-12 lead.\nThe speed and team dynamic from Sheffield made them unstoppable in the third quarter of the match, grabbing a 44-23 lead in the third quarter.\nIn the final quarter of the game, Sheffield added extra pressure to York St John by showcasing terrific gameplay with non-stop goals. With strong attacks and accurate shooting, it was tough for York St John Uni to defend and stop the goals from coming.\nThe University of Sheffield sealed the win with a score line of 62-28 after an exciting match, leading their captain, Chloe Gregory, to say: \u201cThe highlight is getting everyone on core and all the different combinations.\n\u201cIt\u2019s really nice getting everyone on core, everyone on their position as well and obviously the win. We won by more than half.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Expecting Perfection Could Actually Make Bad Employees\nActors Brian O'Halloran and Jeff Anderson on set of the Miramax movie \"Clerks\" , circa 1994.\nPhotograph by Michael Ochs Archives \u2014 Getty Images\nBy Rachel Mendelowitz\nThe MPW Insiders network is an online community where the most thoughtful and influential people in business contribute answers to timely questions about careers and leadership. Today\u2019s answer to the question: How do you embrace imperfection as part of professional development? is by Rachel Mendelowitz, managing partner at McChrystal Group,\nMany leaders would likely agree with the saying \u2018failure is not an option.\u2019 This is an understandable perspective, as logic and intuition would lead most of us to think that fewer errors leads to higher success.\nFor companies to succeed in today\u2019s fast paced environment, they must embrace imperfection. Creating a no-fail atmosphere eliminates the vulnerability critical to innovation at the organizational level and professional development at the individual level.\nIn order to learn in a complex environment, trial and error is not only inevitable, it is actually the only effective way to navigate through uncertainty. Although it is incredibly uncomfortable, exposing and acknowledging when we fall short on performance is actually the very thing that drives higher performance.\nAside from the impact on individuals, fear of failure can also be toxic to corporate culture\u2014 if one person doesn\u2019t feel comfortable being vulnerable, it\u2019s likely his or her teammates won\u2019t either. This can easily become a problem when your team is tasked to come up with new and innovative ways to do business\u2014demands for perfection can stifle creativity and lower engagement.\nSee also: This Is What Happens When You Embrace Your Failures\nThe question is how leaders can encourage their team to feel comfortable about failing, creating a culture where imperfections are embraced.\nLeaders who foster an environment of vulnerability know that they aren\u2019t creating weakness. Quite the opposite \u2013 they challenge people to stretch themselves, demand interpersonal courage, take on new challenges, and model outsized poise and resilience in the face of adversity.\nMost importantly, being vulnerable at work is a two-way street\u2014 it requires daring on the part of the employee trying something new, and support on the part of the manager in responding to this attempt, when it succeeds and especially when it fails.\nHere are a few ways to build this vulnerability on your own team:\nEncourage \u2018stupid\u2019 questions. It may seem obvious to you, but your team likely doesn\u2019t have the broader strategic perspective that you do. Seemingly \u201cstupid\u201d questions can actually highlight where you have failed as a leader to provide direction or enough emphasis.\nOffer to help without judgment. Just as how you shouldn\u2019t be afraid to request help, remember to not judge others when they ask for it. It\u2019s natural to feel pride when asked for your expertise, but for one of my clients at a financial services firm, her pride was mixed with condescension rather than patience. Her typical responses to requests for help, \u201cThis is not that difficult\u2026\u201d or \u201cI don\u2019t have time for this \u2026\u201d created a culture where her employees spent unnecessary hours muscling through problems rather than face derision from their manager.\nEnable creative thinking. Bold ideas move the needle forward, yet are often shut down in meetings by more experienced leaders who \u2018just know that won\u2019t work.\u2019 One well-intentioned leader I worked with actually carried around a playbook intended to keep him and his team laser focused on their goals. Creative ideas were so clearly considered distractions that they were never even voiced. Instead, \u2018waste\u2019 a little time entertaining new thinking.\nTry new things, even if they fail. Every organization seeks to be a \u201clearning organization\u201d, but we learn through both success and, more effectively, through failure. One leader I worked for was masterful at this. As a team, we chased zany ideas round and round until it became clear that we\u2019d hit an insurmountable roadblock. At that point, she\u2019d laugh and say, \u201cYou\u2019re right, that won\u2019t work!\u201d She had the courage to abandon the idea without ego and the wisdom to know that the time was well spent. I can\u2019t think of a single conversation that didn\u2019t eventually give rise to something truly unique and useful.\nDon\u2019t be so quick to offer your perspective. Resist the compulsion to use your years of hard-earned experience to show why a new idea won\u2019t work \u2013 it might not, but your knowledge is not a renewable resource for your employees; their own ability to learn and develop is what will pay dividends.\nIn short, we are doing ourselves a disservice by focusing with such intensity on who can solve today\u2019s problems perfectly. Few roles are so static that we\u2019ll be solving those same problems a few years or even a few weeks from now. Instead, leaders should apply that level of intensity on seeking out, retaining, and developing the most adaptable people who are skilled at failing and picking themselves back up. They are comfortable with vulnerability and learn rapidly as a result.\nA workforce that admits it is imperfect and develops quickly \u2013 not in spite of that imperfection, but because of it \u2013 is one that can solve the problems we have not yet encountered.",

        "title": "Fraternal Thoughts: It's Time to Leave Washington DC",
        "raw_content": "It's Time to Leave Washington DC\nThere is a great analogy used to describe the differences between the logical/rational part of our brain and the emotional part. The emotional side is like a large elephant and the rational side is a man riding that elephant. On occasion, the man can steer the elephant where he wants it to go. But, should that elephant get riled up and start charging, there is nothing the man can do to stop it.\nAnd that is the primary reason why the fraternity groups pushing to pass the Safe Campus Act should withdraw, lick their wounds, and find a new initiative. The elephant is running wild.\nThere are some logical reasons why the Safe Campus Act makes sense (or at least portions of it). Rape is second only to murder in terms of egregious crimes (think of how often you hear \u201cmurderers and rapists\u201d used as a blanket term for the worst of our society). And so, to think that such a crime committed on a college campus might not have to involve the police or legal representation is strange at a minimum.\nNow \u2013 if reading that paragraph made your blood boil, then notice the elephant running wild in your mind. You probably thought to yourself, \u201cwhy would he give a flip about the accused, what about the victims?! Why protect the rapists?!\u201d\nBeing concerned for those falsely accused of a crime that egregious, having empathy for victims of rape, and having hatred for those who actually commit the heinous act are ideas that can all live in the same space.\nThere are great arguments on the other side of this issue as well (found amidst the moral self-righteousness that has become a bit suffocating). It\u2019s a contentious issue with strong points on either side and we should be careful to not assign evil motives to those holding a position different than ours.\nOh wait, it\u2019s 2015. We do that all the time now.\nThe fact of the matter is, the emotion in this debate has won and supporters of the Safe Campus Act have lost the ground to make their case. It\u2019s time to make it go away.\nLet\u2019s think about our whole presence in Washington.\nWe don\u2019t need to be in Washington DC to influence or advocate for an issue. It\u2019s not the only place where change happens (in fact, it may be the place change goes to die). I believe that the allure of the congressional offices, the swanky receptions and dinners, and the ability to feel like the levers of government were moving by our gentle hands seduced us into a bad and dysfunctional relationship.\nWe\u2019ve spent over a decade lobbying with no significant legislation enacted to improve the state of the fraternity/sorority industry. Millions have been raised for the Fraternity and Sorority Political Action Committee (unfortunately dubbed the Frat Pac). Millions that could have been raised instead for efforts to grow the fraternity industry or provide education to our members.\nThis controversy over the Safe Campus Act is a gift. It\u2019s a way for the industry to say that it\u2019s time to regroup on these legislative initiatives.\nIn fact, it\u2019s time to go on hiatus and leave Washington DC altogether.\nThere is an argument that a presence in Washington is always needed because our single-gender status and right to freely associate is always in jeopardy. It\u2019s hard to believe that if those core issues were ever truly in serious danger we couldn\u2019t ramp up an effort to advocate and fight for our rights quickly.\nJust ask yourself how many attorneys are on your national board right now. Multiply that by a factor of one-thousand. We\u2019ll be okay.\nLeaders in the NIC and NPC: you shouldn\u2019t be blamed or called nefarious for trying to be a champion of Greek life and our members in the halls of government. Don\u2019t be too proud, however, to close this current saga for now. Whether these newest efforts are just or not, the emotional charge is too great to overcome. Soon the damage to our reputation might be as well.\nIf this is an issue we really have passion for, let\u2019s take it back to the grassroots and have them help us figure out a way forward.\nLet\u2019s start doing again what we do best, which is not shaking hands with and embracing congressional staffers, but rather, shaking hands with and embracing our own members.\nA Senior\u2019s Thanks",

He himself, alarmed at the approach of the King of Sweden, anxiously recalled Tilly, and prevailed upon him to return by rapid marches to Magdeburg. Tilly encamped on this side of the river at Wolmerstadt; Gustavus on the same side, near Werben, not far from the confluence of the Havel and the Elbe. His very arrival portended no good to Tilly. The Swedes routed three of his regiments, which were posted in villages at some distance from the main body, carried off half their baggage, and burned the remainder. Tilly in vain advanced within cannon shot of the king's camp, and offered him battle. Gustavus, weaker by one-half than his adversary, prudently declined it; and his position was too strong for an attack. Nothing more ensued but a distant cannonade, and a few skirmishes, in which the Swedes had invariably the advantage. In his retreat to Wolmerstadt, Tilly's army was weakened by numerous desertions. Fortune seemed to have forsaken him since the carnage of Magdeburg.\nThe King of Sweden, on the contrary, was followed by uninterrupted success. While he himself was encamped in Werben, the whole of Mecklenburg, with the exception of a few towns, was conquered by his General Tott and the Duke Adolphus Frederick; and he enjoyed the satisfaction of reinstating both dukes in their dominions. He proceeded in person to Gustrow, where the reinstatement was solemnly to take place, to give additional dignity to the ceremony by his presence. The two dukes, with their deliverer between them, and attended by a splendid train of princes, made a public entry into the city, which the joy of their subjects converted into an affecting solemnity. Soon after his return to Werben, the Landgrave of Hesse Cassel appeared in his camp, to conclude an offensive and defensive alliance; the first sovereign prince in Germany, who voluntarily and openly declared against the Emperor, though not wholly uninfluenced by strong motives. The Landgrave bound himself to act against the king's enemies as his own, to open to him his towns and territory, and to furnish his army with provisions and necessaries. The king, on the other hand, declared himself his ally and protector; and engaged to conclude no peace with the Emperor without first obtaining for the Landgrave a full redress of grievances. Both parties honourably performed their agreement. Hesse Cassel adhered to the Swedish alliance during the whole of this tedious war; and at the peace of Westphalia had no reason to regret the friendship of Sweden.\nTilly, from whom this bold step on the part of the Landgrave was not long concealed, despatched Count Fugger with several regiments against him; and at the same time endeavoured to excite his subjects to rebellion by inflammatory letters. But these made as little impression as his troops, which subsequently failed him so decidedly at the battle of Breitenfield. The Estates of Hesse could not for a moment hesitate between their oppressor and their protector.\nBut the imperial general was far more disturbed by the equivocal conduct of the Elector of Saxony, who, in defiance of the imperial prohibition, continued his preparations, and adhered to the confederation of Leipzig. At this conjuncture, when the proximity of the King of Sweden made a decisive battle ere long inevitable, it appeared extremely dangerous to leave Saxony in arms, and ready in a moment to declare for the enemy. Tilly had just received a reinforcement of 25,000 veteran troops under Furstenberg, and, confident in his strength, he hoped either to disarm the Elector by the mere terror of his arrival, or at least to conquer him with little difficulty. Before quitting his camp at Wolmerstadt, he commanded the Elector, by a special messenger, to open his territories to the imperial troops; either to disband his own, or to join them to the imperial army; and to assist, in conjunction with himself, in driving the King of Sweden out of Germany. While he reminded him that, of all the German states, Saxony had hitherto been most respected, he threatened it, in case of refusal, with the most destructive ravages.\nBut Tilly had chosen an unfavourable moment for so imperious a requisition. The ill-treatment of his religious and political confederates, the destruction of Magdeburg, the excesses of the Imperialists in Lusatia, all combined to incense the Elector against the Emperor. The approach, too, of Gustavus Adolphus, (however slender his claims were to the protection of that prince,) tended to fortify his resolution. He accordingly forbade the quartering of the imperial soldiers in his territories, and announced his firm determination to persist in his warlike preparations. However surprised he should be, he added, \"to see an imperial army on its march against his territories, when that army had enough to do in watching the operations of the King of Sweden, nevertheless he did not expect, instead of the promised and well merited rewards, to be repaid with ingratitude and the ruin of his country.\" To Tilly's deputies, who were entertained in a princely style, he gave a still plainer answer on the occasion. \"Gentlemen,\" said he, \"I perceive that the Saxon confectionery, which has been so long kept back, is at length to be set upon the table. But as it is usual to mix with it nuts and garnish of all kinds, take care of your teeth.\"\nTilly instantly broke up his camp, and, with the most frightful devastation, advanced upon Halle; from this place he renewed his demands on the Elector, in a tone still more urgent and threatening. The previous policy of this prince, both from his own inclination, and the persuasions of his corrupt ministers had been to promote the interests of the Emperor, even at the expense of his own sacred obligations, and but very little tact had hitherto kept him inactive. All this but renders more astonishing the infatuation of the Emperor or his ministers in abandoning, at so critical a moment, the policy they had hitherto adopted, and by extreme measures, incensing a prince so easily led. Was this the very object which Tilly had in view? Was it his purpose to convert an equivocal friend into an open enemy, and thus to relieve himself from the necessity of that indulgence in the treatment of this prince, which the secret instructions of the Emperor had hitherto imposed upon him? Or was it the Emperor's wish, by driving the Elector to open hostilities, to get quit of his obligations to him, and so cleverly to break off at once the difficulty of a reckoning? In either case, we must be equally surprised at the daring presumption of Tilly, who hesitated not, in presence of one formidable enemy, to provoke another; and at his negligence in permitting, without opposition, the union of the two.\nThe Saxon Elector, rendered desperate by the entrance of Tilly into his territories, threw himself, though not without a violent struggle, under the protection of Sweden.\nImmediately after dismissing Tilly's first embassy, he had despatched his field-marshal Arnheim in all haste to the camp of Gustavus, to solicit the prompt assistance of that monarch whom he had so long neglected. The king concealed the inward satisfaction he felt at this long wished for result. \"I am sorry for the Elector,\" said he, with dissembled coldness, to the ambassador; \"had he heeded my repeated remonstrances, his country would never have seen the face of an enemy, and Magdeburg would not have fallen. Now, when necessity leaves him no alternative, he has recourse to my assistance. But tell him, that I cannot, for the sake of the Elector of Saxony, ruin my own cause, and that of my confederates. What pledge have I for the sincerity of a prince whose minister is in the pay of Austria, and who will abandon me as soon as the Emperor flatters him, and withdraws his troops from his frontiers? Tilly, it is true, has received a strong reinforcement; but this shall not prevent me from meeting him with confidence, as soon as I have covered my rear.\"\nThe Saxon minister could make no other reply to these reproaches, than that it was best to bury the past in oblivion.\nHe pressed the king to name the conditions, on which he would afford assistance to Saxony, and offered to guarantee their acceptance. \"I require,\" said Gustavus, \"that the Elector shall cede to me the fortress of Wittenberg, deliver to me his eldest sons as hostages, furnish my troops with three months' pay, and deliver up to me the traitors among his ministry.\"\n\"Not Wittenberg alone,\" said the Elector, when he received this answer, and hurried back his minister to the Swedish camp, \"not Wittenberg alone, but Torgau, and all Saxony, shall be open to him; my whole family shall be his hostages, and if that is insufficient, I will place myself in his hands. Return and inform him I am ready to deliver to him any traitors he shall name, to furnish his army with the money he requires, and to venture my life and fortune in the good cause.\nThe king had only desired to test the sincerity of the Elector's new sentiments. Convinced of it, he now retracted these harsh demands. \"The distrust,\" said he, \"which was shown to myself when advancing to the relief of Magdeburg, had naturally excited mine; the Elector's present confidence demands a return. I am satisfied, provided he grants my army one month's pay, and even for this advance I hope to indemnify him.\"\nImmediately upon the conclusion of the treaty, the king crossed the Elbe, and next day joined the Saxons. Instead of preventing this junction, Tilly had advanced against Leipzig, which he summoned to receive an imperial garrison. In hopes of speedy relief, Hans Von der Pforta, the commandant, made preparations for his defence, and laid the suburb towards Halle in ashes. But the ill condition of the fortifications made resistance vain, and on the second day the gates were opened. Tilly had fixed his head quarters in the house of a grave-digger, the only one still standing in the suburb of Halle: here he signed the capitulation, and here, too, he arranged his attack on the King of Sweden. Tilly grew pale at the representation of the death's head and cross bones, with which the proprietor had decorated his house; and, contrary to all expectation, Leipzig experienced moderate treatment.\nMeanwhile, a council of war was held at Torgau, between the King of Sweden and the Elector of Saxony, at which the Elector of Brandenburg was also present. The resolution which should now be adopted, was to decide irrevocably the fate of Germany and the Protestant religion, the happiness of nations and the destiny of their princes. The anxiety of suspense which, before every decisive resolve, oppresses even the hearts of heroes, appeared now for a moment to overshadow the great mind of Gustavus Adolphus. \"If we decide upon battle,\" said he, \"the stake will be nothing less than a crown and two electorates. Fortune is changeable, and the inscrutable decrees of Heaven may, for our sins, give the victory to our enemies. My kingdom, it is true, even after the loss of my life and my army, would still have a hope left. Far removed from the scene of action, defended by a powerful fleet, a well-guarded frontier, and a warlike population, it would at least be safe from the worst consequences of a defeat. But what chances of escape are there for you, with an enemy so close at hand?\" Gustavus Adolphus displayed the modest diffidence of a hero, whom an overweening belief of his own strength did not blind to the greatness of his danger; John George, the confidence of a weak man, who knows that he has a hero by his side. Impatient to rid his territories as soon as possible of the oppressive presence of two armies, he burned for a battle, in which he had no former laurels to lose. He was ready to march with his Saxons alone against Leipzig, and attack Tilly. At last Gustavus acceded to his opinion; and it was resolved that the attack should be made without delay, before the arrival of the reinforcements, which were on their way, under Altringer and Tiefenbach. The united Swedish and Saxon armies now crossed the Mulda, while the Elector returned homeward.\nEarly on the morning of the 7th September, 1631, the hostile armies came in sight of each other. Tilly, who, since he had neglected the opportunity of overpowering the Saxons before their union with the Swedes, was disposed to await the arrival of the reinforcements, had taken up a strong and advantageous position not far from Leipzig, where he expected he should be able to avoid the battle. But the impetuosity of Pappenheim obliged him, as soon as the enemy were in motion, to alter his plans, and to move to the left, in the direction of the hills which run from the village of Wahren towards Lindenthal. At the foot of these heights, his army was drawn up in a single line, and his artillery placed upon the heights behind, from which it could sweep the whole extensive plain of Breitenfeld. The Swedish and Saxon army advanced in two columns, having to pass the Lober near Podelwitz, in Tilly's front.\nTo defend the passage of this rivulet, Pappenheim advanced at the head of 2000 cuirassiers, though after great reluctance on the part of Tilly, and with express orders not to commence a battle. But, in disobedience to this command, Pappenheim attacked the vanguard of the Swedes, and after a brief struggle was driven to retreat. To check the progress of the enemy, he set fire to Podelwitz, which, however, did not prevent the two columns from advancing and forming in order of battle.\nOn the right, the Swedes drew up in a double line, the infantry in the centre, divided into such small battalions as could be easily and rapidly manoeuvred without breaking their order; the cavalry upon their wings, divided in the same manner into small squadrons, interspersed with bodies of musqueteers, so as both to give an appearance of greater numerical force, and to annoy the enemy's horse. Colonel Teufel commanded the centre, Gustavus Horn the left, while the right was led by the king in person, opposed to Count Pappenheim.\nOn the left, the Saxons formed at a considerable distance from the Swedes, -- by the advice of Gustavus, which was justified by the event. The order of battle had been arranged between the Elector and his field-marshal, and the king was content with merely signifying his approval. He was anxious apparently to separate the Swedish prowess from that of the Saxons, and fortune did not confound them.\nThe enemy was drawn up under the heights towards the west, in one immense line, long enough to outflank the Swedish army, -- the infantry being divided in large battalions, the cavalry in equally unwieldy squadrons. The artillery being on the heights behind, the range of its fire was over the heads of his men. From this position of his artillery, it was evident that Tilly's purpose was to await rather than to attack the enemy; since this arrangement rendered it impossible for him to do so without exposing his men to the fire of his own cannons. Tilly himself commanded the centre, Count Furstenberg the right wing, and Pappenheim the left. The united troops of the Emperor and the League on this day did not amount to 34,000 or 35,000 men; the Swedes and Saxons were about the same number. But had a million been confronted with a million it could only have rendered the action more bloody, certainly not more important and decisive. For this day Gustavus had crossed the Baltic, to court danger in a distant country, and expose his crown and life to the caprice of fortune. The two greatest generals of the time, both hitherto invincible, were now to be matched against each other in a contest which both had long avoided; and on this field of battle the hitherto untarnished laurels of one leader must droop for ever. The two parties in Germany had beheld the approach of this day with fear and trembling; and the whole age awaited with deep anxiety its issue, and posterity was either to bless or deplore it for ever.\nTilly's usual intrepidity and resolution seemed to forsake him on this eventful day. He had formed no regular plan for giving battle to the King, and he displayed as little firmness in avoiding it. Contrary to his own judgment, Pappenheim had forced him to action. Doubts which he had never before felt, struggled in his bosom; gloomy forebodings clouded his ever-open brow; the shade of Magdeburg seemed to hover over him.\nA cannonade of two hours commenced the battle; the wind, which was from the west, blew thick clouds of smoke and dust from the newly-ploughed and parched fields into the faces of the Swedes. This compelled the king insensibly to wheel northwards, and the rapidity with which this movement was executed left no time to the enemy to prevent it.\nTilly at last left his heights, and began the first attack upon the Swedes; but to avoid their hot fire, he filed off towards the right, and fell upon the Saxons with such impetuosity that their line was broken, and the whole army thrown into confusion. The Elector himself retired to Eilenburg, though a few regiments still maintained their ground upon the field, and by a bold stand saved the honour of Saxony. Scarcely had the confusion began ere the Croats commenced plundering, and messengers were despatched to Munich and Vienna with the news of the victory.\nPappenheim had thrown himself with the whole force of his cavalry upon the right wing of the Swedes, but without being able to make it waver. The king commanded here in person, and under him General Banner. Seven times did Pappenheim renew the attack, and seven times was he repulsed. He fled at last with great loss, and abandoned the field to his conqueror.\nIn the mean time, Tilly, having routed the remainder of the Saxons, attacked with his victorious troops the left wing of the Swedes. To this wing the king, as soon as he perceived that the Saxons were thrown into disorder, had, with a ready foresight, detached a reinforcement of three regiments to cover its flank, which the flight of the Saxons had left exposed. Gustavus Horn, who commanded here, showed the enemy's cuirassiers a spirited resistance, which the infantry, interspersed among the squadrons of horse, materially assisted. The enemy were already beginning to relax the vigour of their attack, when Gustavus Adolphus appeared to terminate the contest. The left wing of the Imperialists had been routed; and the king's division, having no longer any enemy to oppose, could now turn their arms wherever it would be to the most advantage. Wheeling, therefore, with his right wing and main body to the left, he attacked the heights on which the enemy's artillery was planted. Gaining possession of them in a short time, he turned upon the enemy the full fire of their own cannon.\nThe play of artillery upon their flank, and the terrible onslaught of the Swedes in front, threw this hitherto invincible army into confusion. A sudden retreat was the only course left to Tilly, but even this was to be made through the midst of the enemy. The whole army was in disorder, with the exception of four regiments of veteran soldiers, who never as yet had fled from the field, and were resolved not to do so now. Closing their ranks, they broke through the thickest of the victorious army, and gained a small thicket, where they opposed a new front to the Swedes, and maintained their resistance till night, when their number was reduced to six hundred men. With them fled the wreck of Tilly's army, and the battle was decided.\nAmid the dead and the wounded, Gustavus Adolphus threw himself on his knees; and the first joy of his victory gushed forth in fervent prayer. He ordered his cavalry to pursue the enemy as long as the darkness of the night would permit. The pealing of the alarm-bells set the inhabitants of all the neighbouring villages in motion, and utterly lost was the unhappy fugitive who fell into their hands. The king encamped with the rest of his army between the field of battle and Leipzig, as it was impossible to attack the town the same night. Seven thousand of the enemy were killed in the field, and more than 5,000 either wounded or taken prisoners. Their whole artillery and camp fell into the hands of the Swedes, and more than a hundred standards and colours were taken. Of the Saxons about 2,000 had fallen, while the loss of the Swedes did not exceed 700. The rout of the Imperialists was so complete, that Tilly, on his retreat to Halle and Halberstadt, could not rally above 600 men, or Pappenheim more than 1,400 -- so rapidly was this formidable army dispersed, which so lately was the terror of Italy and Germany.\nTilly himself owed his escape merely to chance. Exhausted by his wounds, he still refused to surrender to a Swedish captain of horse, who summoned him to yield; but who, when he was on the point of putting him to death, was himself stretched on the ground by a timely pistol-shot. But more grievous than danger or wounds was the pain of surviving his reputation, and of losing in a single day the fruits of a long life. All former victories were as nothing, since he had failed in gaining the one that should have crowned them all. Nothing remained of all his past exploits, but the general execration which had followed them. From this period, he never recovered his cheerfulness or his good fortune. Even his last consolation, the hope of revenge, was denied to him, by the express command of the Emperor not to risk a decisive battle.\nThe disgrace of this day is to be ascribed principally to three mistakes; his planting the cannon on the hills behind him, his afterwards abandoning these heights, and his allowing the enemy, without opposition, to form in order of battle. But how easily might those mistakes have been rectified, had it not been for the cool presence of mind and superior genius of his adversary!\nTilly fled from Halle to Halberstadt, where he scarcely allowed time for the cure of his wounds, before he hurried towards the Weser to recruit his force by the imperial garrisons in Lower Saxony.\nThe Elector of Saxony had not failed, after the danger was over, to appear in Gustavus's camp. The king thanked him for having advised a battle; and the Elector, charmed at his friendly reception, promised him, in the first transports of joy, the Roman crown. Gustavus set out next day for Merseburg, leaving the Elector to recover Leipzig. Five thousand Imperialists, who had collected together after the defeat, and whom he met on his march, were either cut in pieces or taken prisoners, of whom again the greater part entered into his service. Merseburg quickly surrendered; Halle was soon after taken, whither the Elector of Saxony, after making himself master of Leipzig, repaired to meet the king, and to concert their future plan of operations.\nThe victory was gained, but only a prudent use of it could render it decisive. The imperial armies were totally routed, Saxony free from the enemy, and Tilly had retired into Brunswick. To have followed him thither would have been to renew the war in Lower Saxony, which had scarcely recovered from the ravages of the last. It was therefore determined to carry the war into the enemy's country, which, open and defenceless as far as Vienna, invited attack. On their right, they might fall upon the territories of the Roman Catholic princes, or penetrate, on the left, into the hereditary dominions of Austria, and make the Emperor tremble in his palace. Both plans were resolved on; and the question that now remained was to assign its respective parts. Gustavus Adolphus, at the head of a victorious army, had little resistance to apprehend in his progress from Leipzig to Prague, Vienna, and Presburg. As to Bohemia, Moravia, Austria, and Hungary, they had been stripped of their defenders, while the oppressed Protestants in these countries were ripe for a revolt. Ferdinand was no longer secure in his capital: Vienna, on the first terror of surprise, would at once open its gates. The loss of his territories would deprive the enemy of the resources by which alone the war could be maintained; and Ferdinand would, in all probability, gladly accede, on the hardest conditions, to a peace which would remove a formidable enemy from the heart of his dominions. This bold plan of operations was flattering to a conqueror, and success perhaps might have justified it. But Gustavus Adolphus, as prudent as he was brave, and more a statesman than a conqueror, rejected it, because he had a higher end in view, and would not trust the issue either to bravery or good fortune alone.\nBy marching towards Bohemia, Franconia and the Upper Rhine would be left to the Elector of Saxony. But Tilly had already begun to recruit his shattered army from the garrisons in Lower Saxony, and was likely to be at the head of a formidable force upon the Weser, and to lose no time in marching against the enemy. To so experienced a general, it would not do to oppose an Arnheim, of whose military skill the battle of Leipzig had afforded but equivocal proof; and of what avail would be the rapid and brilliant career of the king in Bohemia and Austria, if Tilly should recover his superiority in the Empire, animating the courage of the Roman Catholics, and disarming, by a new series of victories, the allies and confederates of the king? What would he gain by expelling the Emperor from his hereditary dominions, if Tilly succeeded in conquering for that Emperor the rest of Germany? Could he hope to reduce the Emperor more than had been done, twelve years before, by the insurrection of Bohemia, which had failed to shake the firmness or exhaust the resources of that prince, and from which he had risen more formidable than ever?\nLess brilliant, but more solid, were the advantages which he had to expect from an incursion into the territories of the League. In this quarter, his appearance in arms would be decisive. At this very conjuncture, the princes were assembled in a Diet at Frankfort, to deliberate upon the Edict of Restitution, where Ferdinand employed all his artful policy to persuade the intimidated Protestants to accede to a speedy and disadvantageous arrangement. The advance of their protector could alone encourage them to a bold resistance, and disappoint the Emperor's designs. Gustavus Adolphus hoped, by his presence, to unite the discontented princes, or by the terror of his arms to detach them from the Emperor's party. Here, in the centre of Germany, he could paralyse the nerves of the imperial power, which, without the aid of the League, must soon fall -- here, in the neighbourhood of France, he could watch the movements of a suspicious ally; and however important to his secret views it was to cultivate the friendship of the Roman Catholic electors, he saw the necessity of making himself first of all master of their fate, in order to establish, by his magnanimous forbearance, a claim to their gratitude.\nHe accordingly chose the route to Franconia and the Rhine; and left the conquest of Bohemia to the Elector of Saxony.\nBOOK III - Part 1The glorious battle of Leipzig effected a great change in the conduct of Gustavus Adolphus, as well as in the opinion which both friends and foes entertained of him. Successfully had he confronted the greatest general of the age, and had matched the strength of his tactics and the courage of his Swedes against the elite of the imperial army, the most experienced troops in Europe. From this moment he felt a firm confidence in his own powers -- self-confidence has always been the parent of great actions. In all his subsequent operations more\nThe capture of Demmin opened to the king a free passage into Mecklenburg; but a more important enterprise drew his arms into another quarter. Scarcely had Tilly commenced his retrograde movement, when suddenly breaking up his camp at Schwedt, the king marched his whole force against Frankfort on the Oder. This town, badly fortified, was defended by a garrison of 8,000 men, mostly composed of those ferocious bands who had so cruelly ravaged Pomerania and Brandenburg. It was now attacked with such impetuosity, that on the third day it was taken by storm.

It may mean one thing to Home Depot and something completely different to the desktop publisher folding and stapling on his/her bedroom floor at one in the morning. However, there is one universal truth when it comes to D.I.Y., and it is the idea of sharing, of not only the product but of the process.\nIn an era of myspace, blogs, and hype machines, you would think it would easy for a young musician to gain an audience. Well it is not as easy as you think. Even the smallest self-released projects have representation to send out e-mails and cds, following-up, promote tours and events. Where can the bedroom musician go to be heard, to share ideas, and to find validation in what they are doing? Last fall, 19 year-old musician Luke Morris (a.k.a. Secret Owl Society) of Shreveport, Louisiana felt he had something he wanted share, he was offended that the musician industry made it so difficult to simply give your music away, and he thought there might be other out there who felt the same way.\n\"To have a home for all these amazing musicians, who view music not as commodity, but as art, is something that is an absolute joy to be a part of.\" \u2013 James Eric (Chicago Musician and cllct.com member)\nSince it's inception a mere six months ago, The Collective has featured 198 different musicians and house 289 releases. All are available to be streamed or downloaded for free. The collective's core contains several Chicago musicians, and is well promoted at several local shows. As a young site, Luke is still modifying the presentation, but the idea of sharing and the passion for music will never change.\nRecently, Luke was kind enough to answer a few of our questions.\nGapers Block: Transmission: Where did the idea of the collective come from, and how long has it been in existence?\nLuke Morris: The Collective website has only been around for a few months; November/December of 2007. The concept? That's been around for as long as I can remember. You can say that the counter-culture movement of the sixties made the idea popular, but they didn't quite invent it either. To answer that would be a philosophical question, something like: \"Is a man taught generosity, or is he born with it?\". Generosity and greed are two conflicting emotions that we all have, yet our lives are completely dominated by wealth and the acquisition of it. Somewhere along the line, the generous people must've lost some sort of battle with the greedy people. What I call 'the collective family' is the spirit of giving that lives on through all of us and unites us through a common bond, something given to us through the smiles of our grandfathers and the gifts of our uncles.\nBut, if you don't feel like being philosophical, the idea came around directly through the actions of the RIAA and the music industry. If they really don't want us sharing their music, then why should we? They can go to hell; we'd much rather be sharing music that wants to be shared.\n\"Luke really came out of left-field; one day, I had never heard of him, and before I knew it everyone I play music with was talking about him and the CLLCT...or the 001 Collective...or whatever it's called.\" \u2013 Redbear. (Chicago Musician and cllct.com member)\nGB: What is the ultimate goal of the cllct? Is it unique to each musician involved?\nLM: I'd have to say that it's definitely unique to each musician - some of them just want to get their music heard, some of them have less noble aspirations, and some of them are completely involved in the whole scene and contribute immensely (there are so many that I can thank, but a few major players are James Eric, Russ of Tinyfolk, Steven Morris of Existential Hero, and Patrick Ripoll, just to name a few).\nThe ultimate goal, my ultimate goal, is to usher in some sort of new golden age for the music industry. A new business model for the art that doesn't focus on the business, as just the word leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Everything is changing with the internet, and everyone knows it \u2014 even major artists are jumping on the free-music-bandwagon by the assload. CLLCT, by itself, won't really usher in anything \u2014 but a thousand websites doing the same thing as CLLCT will. And I'm glad to be a part of it.\n\"[cllct.com] is a lot more appealing than the traditional sort of top-down model that places such a big separation between people who are making music and people who are interested in it and writing about it.\" \u2013 Tinyfolk (cllct.com member)\nGB: Have you been surprised by the response?\nLM: Part of me, definitely. When the website was only a babe, I had no idea that so many people would champion it like they have - after the support of so many wonderful people, though, I felt like the family could conquer the world if it wanted to. In a way, it already has...who doesn't like free stuff?\nGB: The Roaring Nineties compilation is a great idea and long over due. Are there more projects like that in the works?\nLM: I got involved in CLLCT because a friend of mine asked me to. The music is free because it doesn't cost us anything to make it. The current media market pushes the idea that art is a consumable like anything else; that the purchaser should feel privileged for being able to purchase it. To me, the privilege lies with the artist, who is privileged to have the time and resources to be doing something she loves.\nThat being said, I'm also selling my latest album at shows, because I did put a significant amount of money into it. I wouldn't have a problem with people downloading it, though.\nA lot of people blame sites like myspace for helping to create a culture of musicians who care more about how many people they can get out to their shows than they do about making music \u2014 for creating the idea that everyone should think that they can \"make it.\" I don't think the problem starts or ends with myspace \u2014 I think it goes much deeper \u2014 but a site like CLLCT is a remedy of sorts \u2014 an electronic safe space of sorts where you can maintain total control over how your art is presented, and where anyone with an internet connection can download a significant body of work, instead of just streaming four or five songs at a low-quality bit rate.\nThe family voted on it and that idea came out triumphant, so I can't take any credit. I'm definitely happy with the turn out \u2014 so many people sent in songs that I had to use two CDs.\nThis was my first time really selling a CD, even though it's only to pay for the upkeep of the site. I don't think I'm going to do it again; I'm debating with myself whether to just put the whole thing online right now and continue to have the option to buy it until it's sold out. A bi or tri-monthly compilation is definitely in the works, but there's no way any of them will be for sale, only up for free download.\nGB: Have you thought about turning cllct in a record label?\nLM: The 001 Collective (the forefather of cllct) actually started as a netlabel, but that didn't last any longer than a few weeks. CLLCT will never be a record label, however. Even if I wanted to, the logistics of trying to sell that many albums would give me a heart attack pretty damned fast. We're trying to move the industry forward, though, so I've been brainstorming on ways we can do that. Having an etsy-like site where bands can put up merch for sale is one option, figuring how to get the cllct music on movies and television shows is another. It's hard trying to find an option where the money aspect doesn't overshadow the art, and that's what we're trying to do.\n\"\u2026an electronic safe space of sorts where you can maintain total control over how your art is presented, and where anyone with an internet connection can download a significant body of work, instead of just streaming four or five songs at a low-quality bit rate.\" \u2013 Porches (Chicago Musician and cllct.com member)\nGB: How has the collective helped you as a musician?\nLM: Oh, in so many ways! I'm only nineteen and it helps a lot knowing that there are other artists out there like me. Some of my favorite artists are on CLLCT, and the beauty of their songs is entrenched in the emotion of the songs and not in the mixing or mastering.\nI didn't think I would be doing so many collaborations, either. The collective community has been really fun to work with, and I love them all.\nFor more on cllct.com and the listen to any of the 198 musicians visit their website.\nJason Behrends is an accountant by day and an insomniac blogger/writer at night.

During her residency, Hamilton conducted a workshop for a new sound installation with OCAD Faculty of Art students. The workshop resulted in a public performance composed of a student and public \u201clistening choir,\u201d which was presented as part of OCAD\u2019s contribution to Nuit Blanche on September 29 and which coincided with the \u201cclosing\u201d of Rirkrit\u2019s exhibition at the Professional Gallery.\nAnn Hamilton\u2019s work with textile media explores connections between visual art forms and language, including the spoken and written word, and human presence. Her work includes installations, photography, video, architecture, and performance. Hamilton\u2019s installations are often of such magnitude that they require the assistance of many volunteers or sometimes even the expertise of engineers. A case in point is her 1999 installation whitecloth at the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art in Ridgefield, Connecticut, in which she altered the architectural structure of the space. In many instances, the assemblage of the work is an essential part of the piece itself.\nHamilton earned an MFA in sculpture from the Yale University School of Art in 1985. In 1993, she was awarded a prestigious MacArthur Fellowship and in 1999 she was chosen to represent the United States at the 48th Venice Biennale.\nHamilton\u2019s lecture was a part of the Material Witness series, developed by the Textile Museum of Canada.",

        "raw_content": "HomeBlogUncategorizedNational tax on hydrocarbons tailor-made? First should have look at the european directives\nThe subjugation of national law of the UE States, to the law of the European Union is not a mere declaration of principles but, at least in Spain, has a practical effect that is dramatically affecting the public funds of the Spanish State.\nIn the field of excise duty, the Judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union of 27 February 2014, stated that the applicable Tax on the Retail Sales of Certain Hydrocarbons (IVMDH), popularly known as a sanitary cent, was contrary to EU law for not abiding the purposes and requirements applicable to indirect taxes matching with the Hydrocarbons Tax. This has resulted in the Spanish State had to return to taxpayers 1,699 million euros in 2014 and 1,939 million in 2015 for having been considered the mentioned tax as illegal.\nFollowing this line, it is possible that the situation will not improve for the Spanish public administration, which at the time of legislating must take into account not only the objective pursued (collection) but also must respect the basis or purpose of the proposed legislation , In particular, the law of the EU.\nThe structure of the Excise duty on Hydrocarbons in Spain raises some uncertainties that could involve new expenses not foreseen by the state. Must highlight, the abolition of the IVMDH forced the legislator to reconfigure the tax on hydrocarbons, differentiating a state tax bracket (identical in the whole State) and an autonomous tax bracket (corresponding to the repealed IVMDH) on which the Autonomous Communities [i]have legislative competence, so the final excise duty that must be paid may vary from region to region.\nThe excise duty on Hydrocarbons is a harmonized tax at European level and, consequently, subjected to the provisions of the Community Directives.\nWith regard to the tax rate of the excise duty on hydrocarbons, Directive 2003/96 / EC of 27 October 2003 restructuring the EU\u2019s system for the taxation of energy products and electricity establishes minimum levels of taxation for each energy product, which must be accomplished by the Member States. In Spain the established amount is only reached with the state tax rate.\nArticle 5 of Directive 2003/96/EC authorizes Member States to apply different rates of taxation for four typified reasons, but does not allow that territories within a state set different rates. However, the National legislation enables Autonomous Communities to have legislative competences, so can regulate about the excise duty and apply an increase to it.\nFor this reason, the possibility of obtaining a refund of the quotas paid by application of the autonomous rates of Hydrocarbon Tax is based on the fact that the regulation of the excise duty on Hydrocarbons is contrary to EU law as it allows territorial tax differences that are not allowed by the Community Directive. Furthermore, the aforementioned tax differences are contrary to the principle of the European single market with free competition and equal terms, since final consumers will face different tax rates depending on the Autonomous Community where they consume the products\nIf finally the European Union Court of Justice or the Spanish National Courts consider that the addition of an autonomous tax bracket to the Hydrocarbon excise duty is contrary to EU law, it would mean that the AEAT and the Autonomous Communities will have to refund the amounts unduly paid since 2013 for that concept. So the history could therefore be repeated.\n[i] The Autonomous Communities are a first-level territorial, political and administrative division. Spain is a highly decentralized unitary state. The Autonomous Communities can also be known as \u201cAutonomies\u201d and the definition of the Spanish administrative structure is called \u201cState of Autonomies\u201d.",

        "raw_content": "Open Market Operations in Equities\nUCLA economist Roger Farmer suggests the Fed buy some stock:\nSo where do we go from here? The only actor large enough to restore confidence in the US market is the US government. The current policy of quantitative easing by the Fed is a move in the right direction but it does not, as yet, go nearly far enough.\nIt is time for a greatly increased role for monetary policy through direct intervention of central banks in world stock markets to prevent bubbles and crashes. Central banks control interest rates by buying and selling securities on the open market.\nA logical extension of this idea is to pick an indexed basket of securities: one candidate in the US might be the S&P 500, and to control its price by buying and selling blocks of shares on the open market.\nEven the credible announcement that a policy of this kind was being considered should be enough to boost the markets and restore consumer and investor confidence in the real economy.\nCritics will argue that this policy is dangerous socialist meddling. But I am not arguing that the government should pick winners and losers: only that it should stabilise a broad\nbasket of stocks. This policy would still allow poorly run firms to fail but it would not allow all firms to fail at the same time.\nI believe that James Tobin suggested something similar many years ago.\nElmendorf to CBO\nCongressional leaders have named my long-time friend Doug Elmendorf to be the new head of the Congressional Budget Office. Congratulations to Doug, and kudos to Congress for the fine choice!\nHere is something about Doug that you won't see reported in most of the news stories: Many years ago, Doug was head section leader for Ec 10. Because of his broad experience teaching introductory economics, I once hired him and his wife Karen Dynan (now an economist at the Fed) to draft some of the end-of-chapter questions for the first edition of my favorite textbook. Many of those questions remain, sometimes in updated form, in the current edition. (Students may recall having to calculate the money supply in the imaginary economy of Elmendyn.)\nHumor Session\nGoing to the AEA meetings this year? I am not, but if you are, here is a tip from my friend Yoram Bauman (the standup economist who does the great parody of my favorite textbook's ten principles):\nThe (first-ever!) American Economic Association humor session will take place Saturday Jan 3rd from 8-9 pm in the Hilton San Francisco (333 O'Farrell Street), rooms Golden Gate 1 and 2. The event is free and open to the public; Preston McAfee (CalTech) will be presiding, with speakers including Peter Orazem (Iowa State), Rob Oxoby (Univ of Calgary), and Yoram Bauman. There will also be an award for the funniest paper of 2008.\nThe IMF on Fiscal Policy\nPigou in Congress\nCongressman Bob Inglis joins the Pigou Club.\nA most welcome addition to the membership. The club is chock full of nerdy policy wonks. We could use a few more elected officials.\nUpdate: An oil executive joins as well.\nThe Seeds of the Current Crisis\nTyler Cowen finds one in 1998.\nSummers on the Obama Plan\nLarry describes the first inklings of a proposal.\nLindsey on Stimulus\nLarry Lindsey's plan to stimulute the economy, including his membership application to the Pigou Club:\nPermanent tax cuts offer a much better option. The incoming chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, Christina Romer, has estimated that the macroeconomic benefits of tax cuts can be two to three times larger than common estimates of the benefits related to spending increases. The relative advantage of tax cuts over spending is even clearer when the recession is centered on the household balance sheet. Some relatively minor changes, like making the current 15 percent tax rate on dividends and capital gains permanent, would not only help household cash flow, but also put a floor under equity prices much as their introduction did in 2003. This would help protect against further wealth destruction and balance sheet deterioration.\nBut the centerpiece of any tax cut should be employment taxes: in particular, a permanent halving of the current 12.4 percent Social Security payroll tax on the first $106,800 of wages, split evenly between workers and employers. The direct revenue effect of that would be a bit under $400 billion per year, roughly in line with the present quantitative needs of the economy. It also meets our three tests of effective stimulus.\nFirst, the funds would flow directly to households through higher take-home pay and indirectly through a reduction in the cost of employment. Economic studies conclude that the benefits of a reduction in the employer portion of the payroll tax are ultimately received by employees. But the immediate effect would be an improvement in the cash flow of credit-starved businesses (as well as being a marginal incentive to keep\nemployment up).\nSecond, the funds would be extremely timely, with the benefits hitting the economy with the first paycheck after the plan was implemented.\nThird, by lowering the taxation of labor, the plan would help produce a higher-employment recovery than would otherwise be the case. Since the tax cut should be permanent to have maximum effect, the biggest challenge would be how to make up for the lost revenue once the macroeconomic need for fiscal stimulus had passed. In the short run, effective fiscal stimulus requires that government revenue drop, thereby enriching the private sector, and with the Treasury making the Social Security trust fund whole by way of intergovernmental bookkeeping. Longer term, however, spending cuts or a new source of revenue would be needed.\nGiven the agenda of the incoming administration, the best source of such funds would be a greenhouse emissions tax. It would be a much more efficient way of achieving the desired environmental objectives of the administration than any of the regulatory or \"cap and trade\" ideas now being considered. Such programs have failed in Europe since they are so easily gamed. Unlike regulations or cap and trade, moreover, an emissions tax can be phased in and calibrated as macroeconomic conditions permitted, specifically as the unemployment rate declined.\nUpdate: More Pigou Club endorsements here and here.\nBackus on Spending Stimulus\nIn response to a previous post, NYU econ prof David Backus sends me his views of a spending stimulus:\nI was surprised to see you mentioned as the only stimulus skeptic the Obama team could find. If you'd like company, let me add my name to the list.\nI'd label myself, if not a skeptic, then at least ambivalent. It's not that I'm convinced stimulus is a bad idea, but that economics isn't a precise science: we don't know for sure that a stimulus package will cure what ails us. Here are some reasons for doubt, and I'm sure you and your readers have others:\nHard to do. It's not easy to spend large amounts of new money quickly. Harder still to do it in a way that creates good value for society and doesn't bring out the worst in our politicians. (I can hear Jon Stewart on the Daily Show: \"Where's Ted Stevens when we need him?\")\nBad timing. Right now, most forecasts call for continued shrinkage in the first half of 2009, modest growth in the second half, when the stimulus starts to come online, and faster growth in 2010, when spending hits high gear. This is, of course, the classic argument against countercyclical fiscal policy: it's hard to get the timing right.\nSmall multiplier. Let us say that for every dollar of extra government spending, GDP goes up m dollars, where \"m\" is the multiplier. Undergraduate textbooks, including your favorite, sometimes suggest m is large. The evidence is fuzzy, to be sure, but to me it suggests a multiplier around one, maybe smaller. Even stimulus cheerleader Paul Krugman only claims 1.1. If that's the case, the impact of government spending (say 700b over two years) is barely enough to reverse the decline in GDP we expect to see over the next two quarters.\nLong-term budget issues. I don't spend much time in Washington, but I thought the mainstream view among government economists was that our retirement and health-care programs were likely to bust the budget over the next 2-3 decades. Recent directors of the CBO under both Republican and Democratic Congresses have made this point, and I hope I wasn't the only one listening. The US is not Argentina, but it still seems a little incongruous to advocate massive increases in spending when the long-term problem is paying for spending already on the\nIt's the financial system, stupid. Japan in the 1990s is a Rorshach test for macroeconomists, so I can't claim everyone sees this as I do. But my take (borrowed from Anil Kashyap) is that Japan demonstrated that the real issue in financial crises is the financial system. If we don't fix it, no amount of fiscal stimulus will make much difference. That's one of the reasons I'm optimistic about the US right now: unlike Japan, we faced our problems, ugly as they were, and have acted decisively to correct them.\nWhat would I do? I'd prefer to remain in my comfortable office at NYU, but if forced to make a recommendation, I guess I'd say the following: Go ahead, spend a few hundred billion over the next two years; it may help, especially if the economy performs worse than we expect. But spend it on things that have clear social value. At the same time, try to make some progress on the long-term spending issues built into our current retirement and health-care systems. That won't be nearly as popular as spending money now, but it's an opportunity to show some real leadership. And make sure you keep your eyes on the financial system: if the banks don't recover, none of us will. Good luck!\nThanks, Dave, for sharing your views.\nDear Prof Mankiw,\nFirst time e-mailer, long time reader of the blog.\nI'm currently a Sophomore at University of Wisconsin-Madison planning to major in Economics having just completed the intermediate Econ courses there. During my spare time, I love to do what most other students probably would consider crazy, and just read economics books no matter what the viewpoint of the author is. I had my first Economics courses in high school taught by a Friedman disciple, my Intermediate Micro by another very Chicago school economist, and my intermediate Macro taught by (from what I was able to judge) a Neo-Keynesian.\nEvery time I've gone into office hours with these professors, I've always come away with the attitude of \"I can definitely see their point\". I have never felt like they forced their beliefs on me, which is a good thing. I fully admit that I'm a young foolish college student, so whenever these professors or teachers talk to me, I'm usually pretty open to whatever they say. I've gotten into some very spirited debates with my Macro professor, but it's always been completely respectful and very thought-provoking.\nSo I guess my question, although loaded, is this: What advice would you give to a college undergrad being exposed to so many different ideologies at the same time? I can go from being told by my ECON 301 (Intermediate Micro) professor that we should, for example, let the banks fail and let the market do it's work, and I can see his point. I can then go talk to my ECON 302 (Intermediate Macro) professor and he will say that it's ludicrous to not do SOMETHING regarding the financial crisis, and I can also see his point.\nI know there is never a set in stone answer for what economic should dictate,but would you say that the way you see Economics today was slowly cemented as you progressed in your studies?\nThanks again, love your blog, happy holidays.\n-[name withheld]\nThree observations that, I hope, add up to an answer:\n1. The current economic environment is a particularly hard time to learn economics. There are a lot of topics about which economists agree, but the diagnosis and best remedy for the current economic downturn are not among them. It is therefore no surprise that your econ profs express disparate views about the appropriate policy in the current environment. Don't read too much into this fact. I bet there are many other topics about which these economists would come to similar conclusions. Ask them about rent control, or international trade, or Pigovian taxes, for instance, if you want to find broad areas of agreement.\n2. You are lucky that you have professors with different viewpoints. Your job, as a budding economist, is to learn from all of them. Ideally, at the end of the day, you should be able to understand and appreciate (although not necessarily agree with) each point of view. You should try to construct in your mind a debate between your Friedmanite professor and your Keynesian professor. What points would each raise, and how would the other respond?\n3. As you come to grips with these various points of view, you will be in a better position to judge which you find most cogent. But don't expect to reach unequivocal positions easily. In my view, it is best to consider all knowledge as tentative. The best scholars maintain an open-mindedness and humility about even their own core beliefs. Excessive conviction is often a sign of insufficient thought, which in turn may be derived from a certain pig-headedness. Intellectual maturity comes when you can maintain the right balance between informed belief and honest skepticism. You sound like you are on the right path.\nFeldstein on Defense Spending\nMarty wants more.\nQuantitative easing from Marketplace on Vimeo.\nRobert Lucas on the Economy\nBob says monetary policy is still the first line of defense.\nHow Not to Stimulate the Economy\nIn thinking through the fiscal policy options and their implications, it might be useful to compare a few hypothetical, fanciful scenarios. Suppose that the federal government borrows some money and then...\nCase A: uses the money to give a lump-sum payment (such as a tax rebate) to Joe Average, who chooses to spend his free time sitting at home watching Mork and Mindy reruns.\nCase B: uses the money to hire Joe to sit at home and watch Mork and Mindy reruns.\nCase C: uses the money to hire Joe to sit at home and watch Family Feud reruns, which Joe does not enjoy quite as much as Mork and Mindy.\nIn all the cases, Joe will spend some of the money he gets on consumer goods and services, leading to a Keynesian multiplier. But those knock-on effects are the same in the three cases, so we can put those aside for now.\nLet's begin by comparing cases A and B. These two scenarios are identical in terms of final allocations and economic welfare. Joe is doing the same thing, and all the money flows are the same. But note that the macroeconomic statistics would be different. In Case B, Joe is employed producing a government service. If we used standard data to compare Case B with Case A, Case B would show more hours worked and a higher Gross Domestic Product.\nNow look at Case C. It has the same employment and GDP as Case B, but welfare is strictly lower. Joe is, after all, less happy watching Family Feud. Comparing Case C with Case A, therefore, we see greater employment, greater GDP, and lower welfare.\nUsually, GDP is a reasonable proxy for economic well-being, so more is better, but that is not true in this example. Part of the problem here is that GDP includes government purchases at cost. If the government hires people to produce stuff that is worthless, that stuff is included in GDP just as much as if the government buys something valuable. When calculating GDP, the national income accountants do not pass judgment on the social utility of government spending. Anyone concerned with economic well-being has to go beyond thinking about GDP.\nThe moral of the story: If the government spends a fiscal stimulus package on goods and services without much public value (as in Case C), it could well stimulate the economy as measured by macroeconomic aggregates but leave the participants in the economy worse off (compared with a feasible alternative, Case A). Avoiding this trap requires that the government spend taxpayers dollars only those items that pass a strict cost-benefit test. That is hard to do quickly. Willy-nilly spending is a good way to stimulate the economy only if the outcome is judged by the wrong metric.\nAdvice for the Generous\nA reader asks for recommendations about worthy charities:\nDear Dr. Mankiw,\nAs I draft my extensive Christmas list of unneeded items, my conscience calls me to add a favorite charity or two, which my family members could consider gifting in my name.\nStill, I know that not all charities are as efficient (or proficient) at their giving. For example, I remember reading (in Easterly's White Man's Burden, I think) that there have been many less-than-perfect results in distributing free bed-nets, arguing that they are optimally delivered subsidized rather than free. While I think bed-nets are a great avenue to donate to the world's poor, there are many different organizations where someone can purchase them, and I, for one, have no idea who is the best at it.\nDo you know any for market-friendly charitable-giving groups, who give bed-nets or anything else? If so, could you please post on your blog? (I think many students and other young people are interested in giving to national and international organizations but know little about how the money flows to the people.)\nI hope my request isn't too vague. Happy Holidays!\nI doubted that I knew enough about the topic to offer a good answer, so I passed the question on to my Harvard colleague, development economist Michael Kremer. Here is his reply:\nSure, I would be happy to make some recommendations.\nIf readers want to donate for nets, one good organization I have supported in the past is here. TamTam provides nets free at clinics. Personally I think this approach makes sense because charging dramatically reduces use, free distribution can help encourage mothers to come to antenatal clinics, and, like vaccines, insecticide treated nets can help interfere with disease transmission creating positive externalities. For some evidence on the first issue, see this paper.\nOne of the best buys out there is treating kids for worms. Two billion people have intestinal worms worldwide, including 400 million school-children. The medicine costs pennies per dose. Because the medicine is cheap and safe, but diagnosis is expensive, the World Health Organization recommends mass treatment in schools in areas of high prevalence, which can keep total costs per treated child to $0.25.\nTreatment not only has medical benefits but helps kids stay in school longer. Ted Miguel and I estimate benefit/cost ratios of more than twenty to one in Kenya. Hoyt Bleakley estimates that the Rockefeller Foundation's deworming campaign in the US South in the early twentieth century added two years to average education in affected areas and that worms accounted for 20% of the income gap between the US North and South at the time.\nBased on the evidence, several economists, including Esther Duflo, Kristin Forbes,and me, are involved in, and have donated to, a new group called Deworm the World. Information is available here. There is a donate button which explains how people can give.\nDeworm the World will soon be a tax exempt 501(c)3 organization, but not before either the holidays or the end of the tax year.

In reading all of the econblogs I can find, I'm struck by the lack of practical knowledge both there and within the circle of advisers Obama has assembled.\nI work for the DoD and when the Department of Homeland Security was established,we helped them with many things, not the least of which was contracting. To make a long story short, you cannot juice up a government agency's budget by tens of billions (or in the case of the stimulus package, hundreds of billions) and expect them to be able to process the paperwork to contract it out, much less oversee the projects or even choose them with any kind of hope for success. It's like trying to feed a Pomeranian a 25 lb turkey. It's madness.\nIt was years before DHS got the situation under control and between the start and when they finally assembled a sufficiently capable team of lawyers, contracting officials, technical experts and resource managers, most of the money was totally wasted. Now take the DHS situation and multiply it by 20 and you've got the Obama stimulus package. Even if they hand the money to existing governmental agencies, the situation will be the same. Those existing agencies are working full time administering the\nbudgets they have. They can't just add a zero at the end of each contract and be done with it.\nLastly, I've seen no business case analysis for this investment. I've seen lots of people referring to models and charts and graphs and history, but I've seen no analysis indicating that any of this will give you even a modest ROI....\nStop looking at models and equations and theoretical constructs for a while and look at the practical considerations of the stimulus package. I've been doing this sort of thing for quite a while and I'm convinced it's doomed from the start. If they feel the need to blast a trillion dollars into confetti, then tax cuts would make the most sense. Even if the public used the money to pay down debt, that would be a good thing as it would transfer the debt burden from the consumer to the government making the consumer feel a little bit like spending again.\nLet the Rent Seeking Begin\nThe Institutional Economics blog points to this story:\nThe Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) today called for shovel-ready zoo and aquarium infrastructure projects to be eligible for Federal stimulus funding....Many zoos have their roots in the Great Depression, when the Federal Work Projects Administration (WPA) helped build many zoos across America.\nOf course, this lobbying is part of the political process. Whether the AZA gets the money it wants for new zoos will be up to the new administration and Congress. I am sure that the Obama transition team is now carefully evaluating many hundreds of billions of dollars of proposed spending projects and will, over the next few weeks, determine precisely which of these pass a cost-benefit test.\nAs for me, I think dropping money out of a helicopter is looking better and better. (Or, more seriously, consider my federalist fiscal stimulus.)\nStimulus Spending Skeptics\nAn AP story reports:\nObama advisers, including Christina Romer and Lawrence Summers, have been contacting economists from across the political spectrum in search of advice as they assemble a spending plan that would meet Obama's goal of preserving or creating 2.5 million jobs over two years....Only one outside economist contacted by Obama aides, Harvard's Greg Mankiw, who served on President Bush's Council of Economic Advisers, voiced skepticism about the need for an economic stimulus, transition officials said.\nBy the way, House Republican leader John Boehner is compiling \"a list of credentialed American economists who would like to add their voices to the list of stimulus spending skeptics.\" Click here to learn more.\nWho's asleep?\nPresident-elect Barack Obama says the government has been \"asleep at the switch\" when it comes to overseeing the nation's financial system.\nHe says Americans are \"feeling frustrated that there's not a lot of adult supervision.\"\nA smart but snarky friend points out:\nYou might appreciate the irony that Citigroup's primary federal regulator is Timothy Geithner.\nPrinciple # 1: People face tradeoffs\nTwo Views of Housing Policy\nGlenn Hubbard and Chris Mayer:\nRecent news articles suggest that the Treasury Department is considering a plan to offer a 4.5% mortgage for home buyers for a period of time. Let's hope it does. It would help arrest the decline in house prices that is at the base of the ongoing financial crisis and recession.\nEd Glaeser and Joe Gyourko:\nEncouraging everyone to make highly leveraged bets on housing was patently a mistake. Housing policies of the past also erred by aiming at amorphous, often contradictory objectives, including higher homeownership rates, more affordable housing units and, most recently, higher prices. Those policies then mistakenly applied the same policy medicine to every housing market, whether housing was abundant and inexpensive or scarce and unaffordable. The problems of old-style housing policy are well illustrated by the unwise proposal being considered to provide subsidized loans to home buyers at 4.5 percent interest.\nArt Laffer agrees with Al Gore\n...and confirms his membership the Pigou Club:\nThe Obama team's chatter about creating jobs in alternative renewable energies is hollow to say the least. Here's why: Any serious attempt to reduce carbon emissions must ultimately rely on a very large tax on the use of fossil fuels. And a very large tax on fossil fuels as an add-on to the taxes we already pay would drive the economy deeper into the ground -- with or without alternative renewable energy jobs.\nThe only real solution is Al Gore's proposal to offset a carbon tax dollar-for-dollar with either an income or payroll tax reduction. If a carbon tax increase were offset dollar-for-dollar with an income tax rate cut, I for one would strongly support the policy. The economy would benefit because the progressive income tax does far more damage than a carbon tax would, and we'd use less oil. It's a win-win situation. Yet this perspective appears to be totally outside the Obama team's ken.\nTrade: Not an Obama Priority\nSaying that he has come to the realization that trade is not the highest priority for the incoming Obama administration, Rep. Xavier Becerra has decided not to accept Barack Obama's offer to be United States Trade Representative, according to an interview the California Democrat gave to the editorial board of La Opinion, a Spanish-language newspaper in Los Angeles....\nBecerra said, \"My concern was how much weight this position [U.S. Trade Representative] would have and I came to the conclusion that it would not be priority No. 1, and perhaps, not even priority No. 2 or 3.\"\nThis was what worried me last March.\nUpdate: A reader suggests that I misinterpreted this story. If trade had been a priority, the reader suggests, it would have a renegotiation of trade agreements and a retreat from free trade. So putting trade on a back burner is then good news.\nPerhaps. But I suppose this means that Joe Biden will not be following in the footsteps of Al Gore, who as veep defended the Bush-negotiated NAFTA on nationwide TV. Recall that there are still several pending free trade agreements, including those with Colombia and South Korea. The incoming adminstration would boost business confidence, and maybe investment spending as well, if it made a clear commitment to get these treaties passed and to continue pushing for more open markets.\nCrises and Government\nClick on the figure to enlarge.\nThe above figure (reprinted from my favorite textbook) shows government revenue as a percent of GDP. The most noteworthy feature of these data is the substantial growth of government from 1929 to 1945. It is easy to understand why the size of government grew so much during this period: The nation was responding to the crises of the Great Depression and, especially, World War II. But what is noteworthy is that while these crises were transitory, the increase in the scope of government was permanent.\nThis historical episode is one reason why advocates of limited government are rightly worried about the fiscal stimulus package that the incoming administration is going to propose. Rahm Emanuel, the new White House chief of staff, is reported to have said, \"You don't ever want to let a crisis go to waste: It's an opportunity to do important things that you would otherwise avoid.\" It is not entirely clear what he meant by this. But one interpretation is that he wants to use a temporary crisis as a pretense to engineer a permanent increase in the size of government.\nHere is one question reporters should focus on when evaluating the proposed plan: Five or ten years from now, when the economy is presumably at some normal level of employment and growth, what will the federal budget look like, as evaluated by the budget deficit and tax revenue as a share of GDP?\nUpdate: Russ Roberts emails me that \"Robert Higgs's Crisis and Leviathan is devoted to the relationship between the size of government and crisis.\" Thanks, Russ, for the reference.\nThe Next Round of Ammunition\nWith the Fed having cut its target interest rate today to a range of zero to 1/4 percent, many people will be asking whether the central bank has run out of ammunition. A good question. Obviously, the next step is not going to be further cuts in the federal funds rate. But there is still more the Fed can do.\nNotice this passage in the Fed's press release (emphasis added):\nThe Federal Reserve will employ all available tools to promote the resumption of sustainable economic growth and to preserve price stability. In particular, the Committee anticipates that weak economic conditions are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels of the federal funds rate for some time.\nThe phrase \"for some time\" is aimed at managing expectations in order to keep long-term interest rates down.\nThe next step for the Fed is to drop the \"price stability\" rhetoric. The Fed has never been truly committed to stable prices. After all, inflation during the Volcker-Greenspan era averaged about 2 to 3 percent. The Fed could have lowered inflation to zero if it had wanted. Now that zero, or even below zero, is a possibility, the Fed needs to convince people that we are going back to the normal inflation rate of 2 to 3 percent.\nLet me suggest this wording for the Fed's next press release:\nThe Committee recognizes that moderate inflation would be desirable under the present circumstances. In particular, the overall level of prices a decade hence should be about 30 percent higher than the price level today. The committee anticipates keeping the stance of monetary policy sufficiently accomodative to achieve that degree of inflation over the coming decade.\nThat is, even if the Fed cannot reduce nominal interest rates, it can reduce real interest rates by committing to a modest amount of inflation.\nSome would view this as a radical change in monetary policy. In some ways, it would be. Given how weak the economy is, however, a bit of radicalism may be called for. I am more comfortable having the Fed commit itself to modest inflation than having the federal government commit itself to a trillion dollars of new spending. The more we can rely on monetary rather than fiscal policy to return the economy to full employment and sustainable growth, the better off future generations of taxpayers will be.\nThe abandonment of \"price stability\" would be the modern equivalent of Roosevelt's abandonment of the gold standard. Of all the things that Roosevelt did to get the economy out of the Depression, jettisoning the gold standard was the most successful. Today, monetary policy is fettered not by gold but by fear of inflation. Perhaps it is time is get over that fear, at least for a while. As Jim Tobin said in an earlier era, there are worse things than inflation, and we have them.\nUpdate: A reader points out to me that Paul Krugman seems miffed that I failed to cite his contribution to the large literature on expectations management by the central bank. Sorry, Paul. I actually do like Paul's paper on the topic quite a lot, and I cite it in my intermediate macro text when I discuss the liquidity trap (see footnote 5 on page 325 of the 6th edition).\nIt is funny. For academics, it is an occupational hazard to feel that your work is insufficiently cited. I had always assumed that the feeling would go away after winning a Nobel prize. I guess I was wrong.\nChu and Pigou\nThe Wall Street Journal reports that Steven Chu, who was just named energy secretary in the incoming administration, is a member of the Pigou Club:\nIn a sign of one major internal difference, Mr. Chu has called for gradually ramping up gasoline taxes over 15 years to coax consumers into buying more-efficient cars and living in neighborhoods closer to work.\n\"Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe,\" Mr. Chu, who directs the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California, said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal in September.\nBut Mr. Obama has dismissed the idea of boosting the federal gasoline tax, a move energy experts say could be the single most effective step to promote alternative energies and temper demand.\nN.B.: NEC Director Larry Summers is also a club member in good standing. Will the energy secretary and NEC director manage to convince the president-elect to change his mind? Stay tuned.\nHow about me? I'm 6' 2\"\nA Puzzle from Terence Tao\nI only recently learned that the star mathematician Terence Tao has a blog. A few days ago, he posted this airport-inspired puzzle, which my family and I found entertaining to discuss:\nSuppose you are trying to get from one end A of a terminal to the other end B. (For simplicity, assume the terminal is a one-dimensional line segment.) Some portions of the terminal have moving walkways (in both directions); other portions do not. Your walking speed is a constant v, but while on a walkway, it is boosted by the speed u of the walkway for a net speed of v+u. (Obviously, given a choice, one would only take those walkways that are going in the direction one wishes to travel in.) Your objective is to get from A to B in the shortest time possible.\n1. Suppose you need to pause for some period of time, say to tie your shoe. Is it more efficient to do so while on a walkway, or off the walkway? Assume the period of time required is the same in both cases.\n2. Suppose you have a limited amount of energy available to run and increase your speed to a higher quantity v' (or v'+u, if you are on a walkway). Is it more efficient to run while on a walkway, or off the walkway? Assume that the energy expenditure is the same in both cases.\n3. Do the answers to the above questions change if one takes into account the various effects of special relativity? (This is of course an academic question rather than a practical one. But presumably it should be the time in the airport frame that one wants to minimise, not time in one\u2019s personal frame.)\nI won't even pretend that I could solve the third problem.\nAddendum: Steve Landsburg has previously examined these issues with more of a focus on the economics.\nInterview with Marty\nWheelan for Congress\nIf you read this blog, it is a good bet that you have some interest in economics. Most likely, you would be delighted if members of Congress were a bit more committed to applying economic principles to public policy. If so, I have the candidate for you. Charles Wheelan, author of the book Naked Economics, is running for Congress in the 5th District of Illinois. This is Rahm Emanuel's seat, which will open up when he joins the Obama Administration.\nClick here to get a taste of how Wheelan thinks. Click here to learn more about his campaign. Click here to contribute. As I post this, Wheelan has raised $22,322 from 47 supporters. I am sure some readers of this blog will want to join the effort.\nThe Magic of Financial Engineering\nThe Case for a Payroll Tax Cut\nFor the econonerds out there, here is a more complete analysis of the Bil-Klenow stimulus plan. Journalist Michael Kinsley makes the case too, while confirming his membership in the Pigou Club.\nHow about an immediate and permanent reduction in the payroll tax, financed by a gradual, permanent, and substantial increase in the gasoline tax? Make the two tax changes equal in present value, so while the package results in a short-run budget deficit, there is no long-term budget impact. Call it the create-jobs, save-the-environment, reduce-traffic-congestion, budget-neutral tax shift.\nOkay, I have to work on the marketing.\nUpdate: Gauti Eggertsson makes the case against supply-side tax cuts in the current environment. But note the caveat that if the tax cuts increase aggregate demand, they are okay in his model as well.\nHarvard's Robert Lawrence joins the Pigou Club.\nStiglitz on the Auto Industry\nAnother economist for Chapter 11.\nUpdate: Phil Levy concurs.\nSpending and Tax Multipliers\nA key issue facing the new Obama administration is to what extent the economic stimulus should take the form of spending increases versus tax reduction. One way to think about the issue is the size of the fiscal policy multipliers. The multipliers measure bang for the buck--the amount of short-run GDP expansion one gets from a dollar of spending hikes or tax cuts.\nSo what are these multipliers? In their new blog, Bob Hall and Susan Woodward look at spending increases from World War II and the Korean War and conclude that the government spending multiplier is about one: A dollar of government spending raises GDP by about a dollar. Similarly, the results in Valerie Ramey's research suggest a government spending multiplier of about 1.4. (Valerie does not present her results in multiplier form, but she emails me this translation: \"The right column of figure 5A of my paper shows that for a log change of government spending of 1, log GDP rises by 0.28, implying an elasticity of 0.28. To back out the implied multiplier, we can use the fact that government spending averages around 20% of GDP. This implies a multiplier of 1.4.\")\nBy contrast, recent research by Christina Romer and David Romer looks at tax changes and concludes that the tax multiplier is about three: A dollar of tax cuts raises GDP by about three dollars. The puzzle is that, taken together, these findings are inconsistent with the conventional Keynesian model. According to that model, taught even in my favorite textbook, spending multipliers necessarily exceed tax multipliers.\nHow can these empirical results be reconciled? One hypothesis is that that compared with spending increases, tax cuts produce a bigger boost in investment demand. This might work through changing relative prices in a direction favorable to capital investment--a mechanism absent in the textbook Keynesian model.\nSuppose, for example, that tax cuts are not lump-sum but instead take the form of cuts in payroll taxes (as suggested by Bils and Klenow). This tax cut would reduce the cost of labor and, if labor and capital are complements, increase the demand for capital goods. Thus, the tax cut stimulates demand not only by increasing disposable income and consumption spending (the textbook Keynesian channel) but also by incentivizing more investment spending. A similar result might obtain if the tax cut included, say, an investment tax credit.\nThis hypothesized channel seems broadly consistent with the empirical findings of Blanchard and Perotti, Mountford and Uhlig, Alesina and Ardagna, and Alesina, Ardagna, Perotti, and Schiantarelli. The results of all these authors suggest you need to go beyond the standard Keynesian model to understand the short-run effects of fiscal policy.\nMy advice to Team Obama: Do not be intellectually bound by the textbook Keynesian model. Be prepared to recognize that the world is vastly more complicated than the one we describe in ec 10. In particular, empirical studies that do not impose the restrictions of Keynesian theory suggest that you might get more bang for the buck with tax cuts than spending hikes.\nAn Etymological Suggestion\nThere has been a lot of talk lately about a new \"car czar\" who would oversee the auto industry under the proposed rescue plan. It seems a strange word choice, as the the word \"czar\" come from pre-revolution Russia, before the principles of central planning overtook the nation.\nA more accurate title might be car commissar.\nMeasuring Your Worth (Academics Only)\nCooley on Mortgage Restructuring\nTom explains why it is hard to do.\nBailout, Italian-style\nThe world is bailing out banks and car companies. Italy is coming to the rescue of parmigiano cheese.\nIn an effort to help producers of the cheese commonly grated over spaghetti, fettuccine and other pastas, the Italian government is buying 100,000 wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano and donating them to charity.\nThough demand for parmigiano is strong in Italy and abroad, producers have been struggling for years to make money, putting the future of Italy's favorite cheese at risk.\nAn economist might suggest letting a few producers fail, so supply shrinks, prices rises, and the remaining producers become more profitable. In fact, that same logic might apply to some other industries as well.\nInvestment: Then and Now\nThis graph shows residential investment (in red) and nonresidential investment (in blue). Notice how strikingly different the two recessions are. The last recession shows up strongly in nonresidential investment, while residential investment hardly notices the downturn. This time, residential investment takes a big plunge, while nonresidential investment has not been much affected (yet).\nMore evidence that business cycles are not all alike.\nAndy Harless, a former student of mine at Harvard, has a blog.\nPOTUS-elect declines membership\nTom Brokaw invites Barack Obama to join the Pigou Club. Mr. Obama demurs.\nBut notice the emphasis on the phrase \"right now.\" Maybe he will join at a later date. The Club is willing to keep the invitation open.\nMr. Obama's emphasis on weatherization and alternative lighting reminds me of President Carter's admonition to turn down the thermostat and wear cardigan sweaters. Maybe it works as a short-term sound bite, but it is not much of a long-term policy.\nAddendum: The Washington Post confirms its membership.\nAlan Blinder is Pro and John Taylor is Con.\nThese papers are not new, but they have renewed relevance in the current environment.\nHow to Avoid the Menu Cost\nA literature in macroeconomics, in which I have participated from time to time, looks to the costs of price adjustment--that is, menu costs--as the reason for the gradual adjustment of prices to economic shocks. A blog reader alerts me to one restaurant's solution to the problem: an inflation surcharge added at the end of bill.\nHall & Woodward on Stimulus Options\nEconomists Bob Hall and Susan Woodward opine over at their new blog.\nGoodbye, Auto Industry\nKrugman: US auto industry will probably disappear\nSTOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) \u2014 Nobel economics prize winner Paul Krugman said Sunday that the beleaguered U.S. auto industry will likely disappear.\n\"It will do so because of the geographical forces that me and my colleagues have discussed,\" the Princeton University professor and New York Times columnist told reporters in Stockholm. \"It is no longer sustained by the current economy.\"\nKrugman won the 10 million kronor (US$1.4 million) Nobel Memorial Prize in economics for his work on international trade patterns. Some of his research on economic geography seeks to explain why production resources are concentrated in certain locations.\nSpeaking to reporters three days ahead of the Nobel Prize ceremony, Krugman said plans by U.S. lawmakers to bail out the Big Three automakers were a short-term solution, resulting from a \"lack of willingness to accept the failure of a large industry in the midst of an economic crisis.\"\nFacing massive job losses, the White House and congressional Democrats are negotiating a deal to provide about $15 billion in loans to prevent the weakened U.S. auto industry from collapsing.\nUpdate: Paul says he was misreported.\nLife in the Left Tail\nSource. Click on the graphic to enlarge.\nEach block in this histogram represents one year of stock returns, using data since 1825. The most recent observation, based on 2008 returns to date, is the dark block in the far left tail. The figure gives a good sense of how historically extraordinary this year's bad news has been.\nBy the way, from February 2003, when a certain blogger was appointed to chair the Council of Economic Advisers, to February 2005, when he returned to Harvard, the stock market rose almost 50 percent. Just saying....\nChristmas Inflation: 8.1 Percent\nThat's the increase from last year in the price of a particular basket of consumer goods: twelve drummers drumming, eleven pipers piping, ten lords a-leaping, nine ladies dancing, eight maids a-milking, seven swans a-swimming, six geese a-laying, five golden rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.\nNote that this index, like the CPI, assumes a fixed basket and therefore does not allow the consumer to take advantage of changes in relative prices. If you could substitute and, for example, buy fewer turtle doves and more French hens, the hit to the consumer's well being would be smaller. But it would wreak havoc on the song.\nMortgage Forgiveness as a Tax Hike\nUniversity of Chicago economist Casey Mulligan is worried about the incentives that the Treasury and Fed are creating.\nHere is the more academic version of the argument.\nDeflation Alert\nIn a previous post, I suggested a reason why older, rather than newer on-the-run, TIPS were closer to true measures of real interest rates. Here (in blue) is the yield on such a bond issue, compared with the yield on a nominal bond (in red). As of the most recent data, the yield on a TIPS bond that was issued about five years ago and will mature in about 5 years is 173 basis points (1.73 percentage points) above the yield on a five-year nominal bond.\nPerhaps this difference in yield has to do with a particularly large liquidity premia for TIPS. And perhaps it is due to the changing risk premia associated with the two bonds. (See this post.) But to the extent the yield spread reflects inflation expectations, it suggests deflation is an increasingly likely possibility.\nI think it is time for the Fed to consider in earnest taking up some form of inflation targeting. (Or, better yet, price level targeting.) Initially, inflation targeting was discussed as a policy aimed at reassuring markets that we won't have too much inflation. Right now, we need it to reassure markets that we'll have enough.\nA Pigovian Tax on Cows\nAddendum from the Tax Policy Blog: \"The video quoted how much in additional tax the farmer in the story, Charles Hanehan, would pay under this proposed tax.

Congrats to all involved!\nAS, AD, and the New Deal\nPaul Krugman has posted a nice note analyzing New Deal wage policies using the model of aggregate supply and aggregate demand familiar to teachers of undergraduate macroeconomics. The essence of Paul's argument is that the economy of the Great Depression was in a liquidity trap, which implies that the AD curve is vertical, which in turn implies that policies that adversely shift the AS curve do not affect equilibrium output in the short run. Thus, a policy that under normal circumstances would be bad, such as cartelizing the supply of labor, is not bad under the extraordinary circumstances of the 1930s. (See Gauti Eggertsson for a more sophisticated version of this line of argument.)\nEven staying within the AD-AS model, it seems possible to argue the opposite point of view. Imagine you are a manager of a firm considering a long-term investment project. The President has just announced a policy to encourage your workers to form a cartel. How does that influence your decision to proceed with the project? Very likely, it deters you. Investment spending, however, is part of aggregate demand (in fact, one of the most volatile components). Thus, the policy could shift the AD curve, as well as the AS curve, in a contractionary direction.\nAs a general matter, the state of aggregate demand depends on an amorphous variable called confidence. Anything that threatens to screw up AS in the long run most likely reduces confidence and AD in the short run. The textbook separation of AD and AS is useful for focusing discussion in the undergraduate classroom, but events in the real world are rarely so clean.\nRalph Nader joins the Pigou Club.\nDavid Leonhardt thinks behavioral economists can save us.\nOliver Hart and Luigi Zingales want more companies to go bankrupt.\nLarry interviews one of my favorite economists.\nThe Bils-Klenow Stimulus Plan\nEconomists Mark Bils of the University of Rochester and Pete Klenow of Stanford say we should cut the payroll tax to stimulate the economy. They email me their rationale:\nAs part of a temporary fiscal stimulus, we would argue for subsidizing the payroll tax (employer and employee portions) out of general revenue over some sustained period, say calendar year 2009. It has some distinct advantages:\n(1) Like previous stimulus efforts, it has the standard demand side impact (same as cutting checks). But it also stimulates employment directly by reducing the tax penalties for working and for hiring workers. Related, it works under all business cycle models (even including those obeying Ricardian Equivalence).\n(2) It targets domestic production better than sending out checks (or a sales tax cut).\n(3) It targets lower income households, due to the cap on social security taxes. These households may respond more in both their consumption and employment decisions.\nNow, it does not target the unemployed. But, in combination with extension of unemployment benefits, those with labor force attachment are still covered. In fact, it helps limit the damaging effects of extending the duration of unemployment benefits in terms of distorting reentry and job creation decisions.\nMark and Pete\nIntriguing idea. In light of my post from yesterday on fiscal policy puzzles, I am especially attracted to the goal of robustness: we should try to find a stimulus plan that works under a variety of alternative business cycle models.\nAs a student of Alan Blinder, Larry Summers, and Stanley Fischer, I was trained to view the short-run effects of fiscal policy through the lens of Keynesian macroeconomic theory. I am sure that many of the economists in the new Obama administration share that intellectual framework. After all, they are being drawn from my teachers (Larry Summers), my fellow students (Christina Romer), and my own students (Jason Furman).\nMany macroeconomists, however, are skeptical of the Keynesian model. And even among modern Keynesians, there is disagreement about specifics. I think it is fair to say that short-run business cycle theory remains one of the least settled parts of economics. Any economist approaching the subject should bring an ample dose of humility. (The alternative is a surfeit of hubris--a character trait all too common among economic commentators.)\nThe Keynesian model has some clear, practical insights about how to think about fiscal policy during economic downturns. But are those insights true?\nOne approach to answering this question is to examine the data using the techniques of time-series econometrics without imposing much a priori theory. For monetary policy, there is a large literature that does this; for fiscal policy, the literature is smaller but growing. The results from this exercise, however, do not always confirm the predictions from textbook Keynesian models.\nFor example, here is the conclusion of Andrew Mountford and Harald Uhlig (a prominent econometrician now at the University of Chicago) in an empirical study called \"What are the Effects of Fiscal Policy Shocks?\":\nOur main results are that\na surprise deficit-financed tax cut is the best fiscal policy to stimulate the economy\na deficit[-financed government] spending shock weakly stimulates the economy.\ngovernment spending shocks crowd out both residential and non-residential investment without causing interest rates to rise.\nThese finding are not consistent with standard Keynesian theory, according to which government spending multipliers are larger than tax multipliers and crowding out occurs through increases in interest rates.\nAn earlier, related paper by Olivier Blanchard and Roberto Perotti called \"An Empirical Characterization Of The Dynamic Effects Of Changes In Government Spending And Taxes On Output\" reported similar anomalous results:\nwe find that both increases in taxes and increases in government spending have a strong negative effect on private investment spending. This effect is consistent with a neoclassical model with distortionary taxes, but more difficult to reconcile with Keynesian theory: while agnostic about the sign, Keynesian theory predicts opposite effects of tax and spending increases on private investment. This does not appear to be the case.\nBlanchard, incidentally, is now the chief economist at the IMF.\nI am not sure how convinced I am by these findings. And even if they are correct, I am not sure what model I should use to explain them and to what extent that model would apply to the extraordinary economic circumstances we now face. At the very least, these puzzles should give us reason to pause when using the Keynesian framework for policy analysis. There is still a lot about macroeconomics that remains deeply puzzling.\nSays the NBER.\nShould we worry about government debt and future generations when devising fiscal policies to rescue the economy from it short-run troubles? In particular, should these concerns lead us to a smaller fiscal expansion than we might otherwise pursue?\nSome economists, such as Dean Baker and Paul Krugman, argue the answer is no. Worries about the budget deficit, in their view, should not deter fiscal expansion. In essence, they say that future generations would be even worse off if we live through a period of depressed aggregate demand, high unemployment, and consequently reduced investment.\nIn my view, these arguments are cogent only under the maintained assumption that there is no good alternative to fiscal expansion. If our only choice is between (a) full employment with a large budget deficit and (b) depression without a large structural budget deficit, then by all means let's choose (a).\nBut I continue to believe that there are other choices. Typically, these put monetary policy front and center. As I pointed out in an earlier post, based on data Paul put together, some measures of long-term real interest rates are still high. The Fed can work to get those down and expand private investment.\nTo be sure, that requires nonstandard monetary actions by the Fed. At this point, simply focusing on the current target for the federal funds rate is not enough. The best thing to read about this topic is a speech Ben Bernanke gave in 2002. As I noted in my most recent Times column, the Fed is now engaging in the sort of creative monetary policy Ben talked about six years ago.\nOne thing all economists agree on: If there are public investment projects that pay a high rate of return, those are worth paying for, even if it means more borrowing. But that is always true. Even if we were at full employment and there were no possible employment effects of fiscal stimulus, we should undertake public investments that pass a cost-benefit test.\nIn this regard, two observations come to mind. First, since most infrastructure is used locally, the proper level of spending is best determined by state and local governments rather than by the federal government. Earlier, I suggested that fiscal stimulus could be decentralized. Each state governor could be allowed to determine whether to take federal money as state aid or have it paid directly to his or her state's citizens as tax relief. I still think that makes sense.\nSecond, more public projects would pass a cost-benefit test if we repealed the Davis-Bacon Act. This law requires contractors on these public projects to pay \"prevailing wages,\" which are typically union wages well in excess of what would occur in a free market. If the government paid market-determined wages for infrastructure projects, we could have both more infrastructure and less government debt. Without doubt, that legacy would benefit future generations.\nA former ec 10 student alerts me to this story about the risks of being a professional economist:\nHow to Combat a Banking Crisis: First, Round Up the Pessimists\nLatvian Agents Detain a Gloomy Economist; 'It Is a Form of Deterrence'\nRIGA, Latvia -- Hammered by economic woe, this former Soviet republic recently took a novel step to contain the crisis.

At least. 12 Dec For instance, do men or women want sex more in relationships? how long they have sex for, and how long they would ideally like it to last.\nPartner pressure motives were less strongly endorsed by older than younger respondents. Cooper and colleagues [ 4 ] also found that young adults were more likely to engage in sex for intimacy-based reasons than adolescents. The present study is the first to examine sexual motivation between several distinct age groups of premenopausal adult women: The middle range 23\u201430 years reflects a group of women in which a small proportion will likely have been married or formed long-term sexual relationships, entered the work force, and begun to have children.\nThe oldest group 31\u201445 years captures women who we expect a majority would have been married or formed long-term committed relationships, progressed in their careers, attained some degree of financial stability, and had children. The prevalence of sexual concerns in women differ substantially by age, with women in their late teens and early twenties reporting more sexual pain and sexual anxiety, less sexual pleasure, and greater difficulty lubricating and achieving orgasm than women in their early to mids [ 6 ].\nWomen in their mids and 40s report more disinterest in sex than women in their late teens and early twenties [ 6 ]. By documenting whether sexual motives differ according to particular developmental periods, the present study will serve as a foundation for future exploration into the link between sexual motivation and sexual function and pleasure in women.\nA cross-sectional sample of female participants aged 18 years and older were recruited nationally via online classified advertisements e.\nThey were informed that the survey would take between 30 and 45 minutes to complete and that they could choose not to answer any of the questions in the survey. All participants were required to read and agree to an online consent form before gaining access to the anonymous survey. The survey was hosted by Psychdata, which uses a bit encryption technology and Secure Survey Environment technology to protect the anonymity of participants and integrity of the data.\nFollowing completion of the survey, the participants were asked to release their responses for the purposes stated in the cover letter, and a debriefing screen appeared advising the participants to contact the principal investigator if they had any concerns about the study. Each participant was given a random identification number that served as a confirmation that she had completed the survey.\nSexual motivation was assessed using the item version of the YSEX? Scale [ 1 ] see Appendix. The items fell into four factors analytically derived as primary motives pleasure, goal attainment, emotional, insecurity and 13 subfactors.\nThe physical reasons subfactors included stress reduction, pleasure, physical desirability, and experience seeking. The goal attainment subfactors included resources, social status, revenge, and utilitarian. The scale has been shown to be internally reliable with subfactor alpha coefficients ranging from 0. Over the 17 months that the survey was active, women initiated the online survey. Of these women, eight exited the survey without answering any items, leaving that participated in the survey to various extents.\nThe participants ranged from 18\u201466 years in age. To calculate the descriptive statistics i. For inferential analyses, we used a final sample of the participants who completed all questions in the YSEX? The participants resided in 37 states within the United States and in two Canadian provinces. The sample was composed of The majority of the sample As expected, differences emerged between the groups in terms of the percentage of women who were married, in long-term relationships, and had children.\nThese findings supported our belief that these age groups represent different lifestyle and relationship experiences. To verify that the factors derived from Meston and Buss [ 1 ] were applicable to older populations, we first conducted a factor analyses of the sexual motives using the combined sample of women. As seen in Table 1 , the factor structure among women aged 18\u201445 years was identical to that reported by Meston and Buss among to year-old men and women with the following exceptions: Factor analysis of the modified item YSEX?\nItems are listed under the factor headings derived by Meston and Buss [ 1 ]. Only the highest factor loadings are reported for each item with the exception of items that loaded higher on factors different from that reported by Meston and Buss in which case, factor loadings for the factor under which they are listed are also presented in brackets.\nAs seen in Table 2 , the values exceeded 0. High internal consistency was also noted for subfactors in the 18\u201422 and 31\u201445 age groups. The values ranged from 0. Values indicated high internal consistency for all of the subfactors among the 23\u201430 age group with the exception of three of the goal attainment subfactors resources: An inspection of the data revealed that one item in each of these three subfactors had zero variability thus contributing to the lower alpha coefficients for these subfactors.\nAs seen in Table 2 , the coefficient alphas for both the primary factors and subfactors were surprisingly similar between those reported here among to year-old women and the sample of comparable-aged women reported by Meston and Buss [ 1 ]. Together, the almost identical results between the factor analyses conducted here and that reported by Meston and Buss, and the high coefficient alphas on all of the primary factors and on the majority of subfactors indicate that the YSEX?\nQuestionnaire is reliable across the age groups used in the present study. Internal consistency of the modified item YSEX?\nTo analyze the differences in reasons for having sex across the age groups, a multivariate analysis of variance MANOVA was run for each individual primary factor using the respective subfactors as dependent variables and the three age groups 18\u201422, 23\u201430, 31\u201445 as independent factors.\nOnly the participants with complete data sets were used for these analyses i. Post hoc tests showed that for the stress reduction and physical desirability subfactors, the 31\u201445 age group was significantly higher than the other two groups. For the experience seeking subfactor, the oldest group scored significantly higher than the 18\u201422 age group. There were no significant differences between the two younger groups Table 2.\nFor the resources subfactor, the 31\u201445 age group had a significantly higher mean than both of the two younger groups. For revenge and social status, the oldest group was only higher than the middle group. Again, there were no significant differences between the two younger groups Table 2.\nFor the expression subfactor, the oldest group scored significantly higher than the 18\u201422 age group Table 2. Within the self-esteem boost subfactor, the oldest age group scored higher than both of the younger groups. For mate guarding, the oldest group only scored higher than the 23\u201430 age group.\nThe two younger groups were not significantly different on any of the insecurity subfactors Table 3. Mean scores for all items are based on a scale of 1\u20145, with higher scores reflecting increased proportions of engaging in sexual activity.\nFor descriptive purposes, we listed the top 25 reasons why women engaged in sex separately for each of the three age groups. As seen in Table 4 , the items were remarkably similar across the age groups. Also noteworthy, 10 of the 13 items that fall under the love and commitment subfactor were listed among the top 25 reasons for having sex among 23\u201430 and 31\u201445 years, and nine of the 13 were listed among to year olds.\nThree of the remaining seven items that made up the top 25 list were from the physical desirability subfactor for each age group of women, two items were from the experience seeking subfactor for 23\u201430 and to year olds three for the 18\u201422 age group , and the final remaining items were from either the expression or the stress reduction subfactors.\nThese reasons are from the current item modified YSEX? Questionnaire, which is based on the original item YSEX? Mean scores for all items are based on a scale of 1\u20145, with higher scores reflecting increased frequencies of engaging in sexual activity.\nThe current study examined potential differences in sexual motivation between three age groups of premenopausal women with the YSEX? Questionnaire, which was composed of four primary sexual motivation factors and 13 subfactors. A number of interesting findings emerged. First, at a subfactor level, the M of nine of the 13 subfactors showed significant differences between age groups. In all cases, women in the oldest age category 31\u201445 years reported higher proportions of having sex for each of the subfactor reasons than did one or both of the younger groups of women.\nOne obvious explanation for this finding is that older women are likely to be more sexually experienced than younger women and thus would have been exposed to sexual scenarios within a breadth of different contexts that, ipso facto, would involve more reasons for engaging or not engaging in sex.\nHowever, given that the YSEX? Questionnaire does not specifically ask the frequency of how often women engage in sex but, rather, the proportion of their total sexual experiences for which each reason accounts, a greater number of sexual experiences can not fully explain these findings. Instead, the fact that older versus younger women reported that more of the reasons for having sex represented many or all of their sexual experiences suggests that when the older women engaged in sexual acts, their underlying sexual motivations may be relatively greater in quantity.\nIn other words, a woman in her twenties might have sex because she wants to have an orgasm, whereas a woman in her early forties may have sex to achieve orgasm, express her love, and to celebrate a special occasion, for example. It is worth noting the four subfactors that did not show age-related changes: At an item level, it is interesting to note that for all women, the top two reasons for having sex related to pleasure, and 18 of the top 25 reasons pertained to either sexual pleasure or love and commitment.\nThat love and commitment are primary motives for women having sex has been well documented in the literature [ 11 , 12 ] and is central to many evolutionary-based theories [ 13 ].\nBy contrast, having sex purely for pleasure is something that past research has commonly discussed as a significant motivator for men but not women [ 11 \u2014 13 ]. This suggests that although older women tend to have more reasons for engaging in sex, the primary reasons for doing so differ little with age among premenopausal adult women. Within the lowest ranked goal attainment factor, the subfactors resources and social status were endorsed as representing the smallest proportions of sexual motivators for women of all age groups.\nIf one looks at the items constituting these subscales, the fact that they represent a small proportion of sexual events is not surprising. That said, it is important to keep in mind that although the items constituting these subfactors were endorsed at a low base rate, the nature of some of these items could lead to deleterious or unjust consequences.\nThus, although these subfactors ranked lowest of all the sexual motivators endorsed by women in our study, they should not be considered unimportant. In the present study, we replicated the factor structure reported by Meston and Buss [ 1 ] and noted comparably high reliability coefficients for both the primary factors and subfactors.\nWith factor validation being extended to a wider age range of women, we propose that the item version of the YSEX? Questionnaire may be useful for clinicians treating premenopausal women with sexual dysfunctions, particularly Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder, which is innately linked to a motivation to have or not have sex.\nAt an item level, the questionnaire could serve as a useful qualitative tool to help facilitate a dialog between treatment providers and female patients with self-reported sexual complaints. That is, clinicians may acquire a better understanding of the reasons and associated affect of why women have sex, or the underlying functions served by sexual activity, which may be a critical first step toward understanding and altering problematic sexual patterns.\nA strength of the current study was the use of a geographically diverse North American sample that was diverse with regard to age, socioeconomic status SES , and sexual orientation. Several study limitations also warrant mention. First, the number of stable traits that are known to be related to sexual decision making was not assessed, and these variables may have differed between age groups.\nThese include personality factors such as perfectionism [ 14 ] and sensation seeking, religiosity [ 15 ], and sexual liberalism [ 16 ]. Second, health factors and levels of sexual function in either, or both, the women or her partner may also have differed between age groups and consequently moderated some of the study findings.\nAlso worth noting is the fact that both the original compilation of reasons for engaging in sex, and the documentation reported both here and by Meston and Buss [ 1 ] of the frequencies and proportion of sexual activity the motives represent were conducted solely on North American women. It has also been reported that the Internet population may have skewed demographic attributes e. The results of the present investigation indicate that women aged 31\u201445 years have more motives for engaging in sexual intercourse compared with women aged 18\u201430 years, but the primary reasons for engaging in sex do not differ within this former age range.\nThe current investigation serves as a starting point for future studies on sexual motivation in women. Needed now are studies comparing sexual motives between premenopausal and postmenopausal women, and between sexually functional and dysfunctional women.\nWith regard to the latter, information on motives for engaging in sex that differ between, for example, women with and without sexual desire concerns could have both diagnostic and treatment implications. Of great value would be longitudinal research that monitors changes in sexual motivations as women age and pass through important life markers such as marriage, childbirth, and menopause.\nRespondents indicate on a 5-point Likert scale the proportion that each of the items reflects their total sexual experiences.\nScale anchors are 1 None of my sexual experiences, 2 A few of my sexual experiences, 3 Some of my sexual experiences, 4 Many of my sexual experiences, 5 All of my sexual experiences. Subfactor scores are computed by adding the scores of the individual items that comprise the subfactor. Factor scores are computed by adding the scores of the items that comprise each of the subfactors under that specific factor.\nNational Center for Biotechnology Information , U.

Table 4 Top 25 reasons why women have sex stratified by age group. I wanted to experience the physical pleasure. I wanted to show my affection to the person. I wanted to express my love for the person. I desired emotional closeness i. I wanted to achieve an orgasm. I wanted to feel connected to the person.\nI realized I was in love. I wanted the pure pleasure. It is exciting, adventurous. I wanted to increase the emotional bond. The person had an attractive face. It seemed like the natural next step in my relationship.\nI wanted the experience. I wanted to intensify my relationship. The person had a desirable body. I wanted to try out new sexual techniques or positions. The opportunity presented itself. I wanted to celebrate a special occasion. How does this make you feel? It isn't an idle question; if we want to find a potential solution, it's important to really interrogate your feelings and get to the core of what is bothering you. Do you worry that you're not enough for her and feel like this is a failing on your part?\nDo you worry that, in sleeping with someone else, she may decide she likes them more and leave you? Or that she may be a lesbian, rather than bisexual? You don't want a polyamorous relationship , which is perfectly legitimate.\nBut what about one where she's allowed to date and sleep with women as long as it's just sex? Why would breaking up with her be more acceptable than giving her a certain amount of freedom?\nDo you fear that, if she were to date someone else, you'd end up being a secondary figure in her life? Would the clean break now be easier because you feel that you could compartmentalise those feelings away?\nOn the other side of things: Would knowing your girlfriend is feeling happy and fulfilled make you happy? Would you be able to take pleasure in knowing that your girlfriend is feeling better, even with another lover - something that the poly community calls \"compersion\"?\nThere really aren't any wrong answers here; you feel how you feel. Don't worry if the way you feel is possessive or that this brings out ugly emotions. Feelings are primal things, after all. Even \"I worry I wouldn't be as special to her\" is completely understandable. Feelings in and of themselves aren't bad things; it's how we act on them that makes things good or bad. I ask you to really dig in and question how you feel because the more you understand how this makes you feel, the more you'll be able to talk this out with your girlfriend.\nOne of the best ways to deal with jealousy is to talk it out with your partner. And being able to talk about this with you \u2014 openly, honestly, without fear of judgement \u2014 is going to help her to feel empowered to open up to you about how she feels.\nBy being open and honest with each other \u2014 not just about your desires but about what you are afraid of \u2014 you can work together to try to find a path that helps her without damaging your bond or causing unnecessary pain. Right now, ya'll are in a no-win situation.\nA major reason why she's clammed up about things is that in all likelihood, she's afraid to bring things up for fear of hurting you. You , on the other hand, are finding the ambiguity of the situation intolerable. So start with a long, open talk.\nGet your feelings out in the open in a productive manner. Focus on the \"I feel\" statements - \"I feel that\u2026\" \"I worry that\u2026\" which will let you express how you feel without putting the responsibility for those feelings on one another. The more that you two feel as though you can talk about this, the more you'll be able to start finding options, whether it's a sexually open relationship, time apart or breaking up.\nRegardless of what options you take, I've got some homework for you. It may well be worth your time to read More Than Two: Even if you choose not to try some form of non-monogamy which, again, is decidedly not for everyone , these books can help give you the tools and vocabulary to try to find a path to happiness for the both of you. You're in a tough spot, man. I hope you can find a way through it that works. Good luck, and write back let us know how things are going. I have been in a long distance relationship with a girl for around 2 and a half years, we met in the USA while I was working out there and then moved back to the UK.\nWe met and it was an instant connection and we hit it off from the get go. We decided we wanted to give it a go long distance, neither of us had done it before but we were just so happy with each other. We have been seeing each other quite regularly, we as regular as you can with the distance between us, each time was great and we would explore each other's cities together and even though they were only usually 10 day trips they were amazing.\nA few months ago though we took a big step, she decided to use the full amount of time she could on a visa over here and stayed for 9 weeks! We were both excited and worried about how this time together would affect our relationship as this was again a first for both of us. Things started out really well, I would go to work and come home to her about her adventures and what she had seen and done and then we would make the most of the opportunities to have actual dates rather than skype dates!\nNearer the end of the trip though things started to take a turn. She said she was feeling lonely with me going to work everyday and her not really knowing a whole lot of people over here so she felt very isolated and homesick, with regular calls and texts to friends and family back home.\nShe was spending an increasing amount of time on her phone and starting to reject any ideas I had to go out or any form of physical contact I was trying to show her. So I got a bit suspicious and eventually found out, via looking at her open phone that she had been having conversations with a few of her friends about when she gets back hooking up with them and having conversations with them that really only me and her should have conversations about.\nI was so distraught and I confronted her about it and she said she had lost her trust in me as I had gone into her phone and snooped but only now since she has gone back to the USA has she apologised for what she did. We broke up but are still talking and are both harbouring the idea of getting back together, but I don't know if I can trust her with what I have now seen, it is making me very paranoid.\nShe said she would never do anything and that she loves me and wants me back! It's going to be a big tangled mess. As tempting as it is to make it a black and white thing \u2014 I mean come on, she was openly planning on hooking up with some other dudes \u2014 there're a lot of factors that have led to your current situation.\nDigging into it is going to have a lot of influence on what you decide to do next. Let's start prying things apart bit by bit. We'll start with the big one: No small part of the answer is: The isolation and homesickness you mentioned?\nThose can be relationship killers. It's one thing to come for an extended vacation; a week and a half is pretty intense, but it's limited. You have the excitement of seeing your snugglebunny after so long apart, and that can carry you through times when they have to work and you're left to your own devices for the better part of the day.\nFor a 10 days, it's easier to play tourist to keep yourself occupied. It's a metric fuck-ton harder to do that when you're there for nearly three months. For a week and a half, you can grit your teeth through the hard parts because you know that you'll be going home soon. Three months gives you a lot of hours to fill and very little to fill them with. She had no social circle in the UK, either to occupy her time or to get emotional support when she's feeling bored or lonely.\nAnd considering how a visitor visa drastically limits what you can do with your time She's functionally dependent on you in a lot of ways. That's a great way to build up resentment, and resentment is one of the things that will poison a relationship.\nNeedless to say, two months of this is going to leave a lot of people in a very \"don't fucking touch me\" kind of mood. So in all likelihood, a lot of those steamy conversations and plans to hook up when she got home were as much her deciding to slam her fist down on the \"Relationship Self Destruct\" button as they were her being a lying, cheating arsehole.\nNot that she wasn't that, too. And blowing up on you for snooping? Part and parcel of it all. However, it also gives casus belli for someone looking for a reason to break up.\nBut let's be real: That's a shitty thing to do, and if you hadn't found what you found, it would be especially dickish. Now she's home again and she's feeling regretful. This is not terribly surprising, all things considered.\nHer behaviour was based on her circumstances \u2014 she was isolated and lonely. Now that she's back in her comfort zone, she's realising that she blew things up and wants to try to fix things. Which brings us to the big question: I don't believe that cheating or the threat of cheating is necessarily a relationship extinction event, nor that not all infidelities are equal.\nSometimes it's a case of someone being an arsehole; other times it's a combination of circumstance and weakness and there but for the grace of God go the rest of us. Relationships can get past infidelities , if everybody is willing to and able to put the work in. But that's a pretty big if. So right now, you have some questions to ask. Was it because of that perfect storm of circumstances that is unlikely to happen again, or is this behaviour something that she'll fall back to when she's upset enough?\nAssuming that you decide that you are willing to forgive her: What will it take for you to feel comfortable trusting her again without reserve?\nCan you forgive and let things go? If you do decide to take her back, you may need to reconsider the nature of your relationship or where it's going to go. Long distance relationships are hard enough without an end to the distance in sight. You've seen the difficulties inherent in to your relationship from both sides of the Atlantic. That will have to be something you both think about when the time comes to decide if this relationship is going to be more than just long-distance.\nHave you had a partner come out to you while you were dating? Did your relationship survive cheating? Have you managed to make a long-distance relationship work? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments. We'll be back with more of your questions in two weeks. Harris O'Malley is a writer and dating coach who provides geek dating advice at his blog Paging Dr.\nNerdLove and the Dr. Just let your girlfriend experiment, better her do it now and have your support than to go behind your back at some stage. Support her in discovering herself. I have known girls who are physically attracted to girls but don't enjoy sex with them. Maybe being bi myself I don't really understand how a straight male would react to his gf wanting to experiment with girls, or handle the situation if she wanted an ongoing relationship with you and a female. In my opinion, if my wife were bi and wanted to sleep with other women it wouldn't be any different than her wanting to sleep with other men.\nI don't see being bi as inherently different, and her desiring to sleep with women as different than desiring to sleep with other men. And in the end, I just wouldn't be comfortable with my wife sleeping with other people. Loyalty in an already established and mutually accepted monogamous relationship is more important than any sexual curiosity. Why get such a wide pass only because she'd be a woman too? Only because she \"needs to know\"? At that point what does it matter what you are! You are committed to a person so it doesn't matter whether unbeknown to you, you are a pansexual lesbian transman or whatever.\nOr if you think it does, then it means that you don't actually love your partner as much as you think. Otherwise, what does anything mean? His GF could just as well say, \"um, I've been thinking that I might be into much taller guys than you, who are also rich, and I need to know whether that's what my mind and body needs. Real love is all about choice and accepting the meaning of those choices. I, from time to time, may find myself thinking \"man, I wonder how it'd be to have sex with this or that type of girl, so different to my partner,\" but the following thought is always \"oh well, I guess I'll never know.\nSo I met this girl in middle school.\nOnline hookups local free sex sites Western Australia\nEscort profiles men seeking couples\nFuck buddy near me how to become a escort\nAdult girl courier mail adult classifieds Western Australia\nCasual encounter sites brothels review Sydney\nbabes free online hookup New South Wales\nwomen escorts cheapest escorts Brisbane\nbest casual dating apps sex site New South Wales\nlocanto craigslist all personals Sydney\nno strings attached definition escorts and hookers\nnsw escorts babes escort",

As a result, firms are forced to stay within existing product / market boundaries, new profit opportunities are lost and potential growth is lost.\nMany of these issues can be resolved with AMP\u2019s out-of-the-box CAIROS loan management platform, streamlined proposal management, workflow and document digitisation. Either stand-alone or integrating with a firm\u2019s existing systems architecture, the platform can accelerate time-to-market for new products rather than being a drag on executive ambition, offering high levels of processing flexibility across a range of markets including short-term loans, merchant cash advances and payment cards.\nSAAS costing can be designed for more effective P&L treatment and reduce downside risk.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Media and PR \u203a DO NOT PAY BLOGS FOR INTERVIEWS\nI am still utterly gobsmacked\nto hear that a friend has been\noffered an interview but they\nhave to PAY the blog for this.\nNow, let\u2019s get one thing straight; of course there are times when you will have to pay people to do things for your band. But getting an article written about you in a blog ISN\u2019T one of them.\nBlogs like this one can and do make money from advertising. Not very much money unless it is a very successful blog, but nevertheless it is possible to make a living doing websites, in the same way as it is possible by writing and making music.\nHuge websites like Facebook, Google, and Twitter make a huge amount of money, same as huge music stars. While smaller sites like GUBIC, or French 4 Tots (another one of mine) make a lot less money, just like smaller bands.\nIn other words we are all in this together, and when I say that, I don\u2019t mean it the way our government does. I mean I am rowing and bailing for my life as well.\nSo it really pees me off when a friend of mine posts on Facebook that he has received an email from a music blog offering him the chance to be interviewed on their site for a payment of \u00a3X. The site have already conducted numerous interviews in the last few months and they have had thousands of page views So what they are saying is \u201cWe\u2019ve already made \u00a3X00 from gullible, desperate musicians, and we\u2019d like to add you to the list.\u201d\nThey claim that their purpose is promoting underground artists, and that the blog is not for profit. The money they make goes towards putting on local live music gigs.\nI mean, presumably the money they make putting on bands goes towards \u2026.. ?\nThe interviews are done online. They do practically no work for what is basically a free article for their blog, AND they want you to pay for the privilege.\nI am so angry I could spit. I would offer to pay 50p per interview if it wasn\u2019t such an insulting amount of money.\nMeanwhile there is already a blog that will do an interview with your band completely free of charge. Go fill out the form here\nCafe of the Muse is a general arts blog, that has a pretty high level of traffic.\nI\u2019m No Chessman \u2013 This Medicine e.p. \u203a",

        "raw_content": "On 18th January friends from the congregation and beyond gathered in the parish church to say goodbye to Pat Gardner, for long a member of our congregation and a supporter of drama in the church. This is what David wrote for the Hampstead Players newsletter:\n\u201cMy mother Pat Gardner died just before Christmas on the morning of Saturday 22nd December, and we have been remembering her long and well-lived life: the years 1923 to 1940 in Hampstead; the years 1940 to 1974 in South Africa, marriage and raising four children; and the years from 1975 back in Hampstead, Hampstead Parish Church and The Hampstead Players.\n\u201cShe was an enthusiastic supporter of The Players from the front pew along with her great friend Estelle Spottiswoode who also died this year. A Membership Secretary and Drama Committee member she always looked to encourage new blood to the group (including in 2000 an Angela Bates who would prove to be a benefit to the Church, The Players and her long-time bachelor son!)\n\u201cIn South Africa she worked hard to get qualifications to teach Speech and Drama to many from pre-school to adults and became a respected producer of plays performed at the Town Hall of our home town Ladysmith. Among her many successful productions was the first ever Peter Pan performed in South Africa and a production of The Winslow Boy.\n\u201cBack in Hampstead, she joined The Players in 1980, and one of her earliest roles was as Mrs Van Daan in The Diary of Anne Frank. But what she really loved was directing and she got her first chance with The Crucible in 1982; she also directed the Hampstead Players\u2019 first Shakespeare with Twelfth Night in 1984. Her greatest achievement I believe was her Murder in the Cathedral in 1990 with Derek Spottiswoode as Becket. In 1992 she returned to a favourite play The Winslow Boy, also the year she took an Open University Shakespeare course. She formed a great friendship with Diana Raymond, our long-serving reviewer, and was proud to be able to produce Diana\u2019s play in 1995, John Keats Lived Here.\n\u201cAs an actor, she was in 12 productions between 1980 and 2007; she directed 9 plays (between 1982 and 1996) and co-directed or assisted on over 15 (between 1986 and 2016). She was part of many Entertainments and Tributes, the last being April 2016 when she launched the Celebrating Stephen evening with a reading of Psalm 23.\n\u201cShe led many Play Readings, Poetry and Prose evenings, a number devised with good friend John Petti, and Literary Hours including \u2018Cry, the Beloved Country \u2013 Remembering Mandela and South Africa\u2019 September 2014 & October 2015.\n2On a personal note, my mother inspired in me a love of literature and drama, and to reciting poetry at Eisteddfods from the age of 6, and saw every part I played from Titania at my boarding school in 1970 to Lear in 2016.\nA last word from Pat on one of the hymns sung at her funeral\u2026\u2026..\nTo thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise - NEH 261\nLike most others I have too many 'favourite hymns' to be able to choose one easily, but with the harvest drawing near there is a very special one I always long to sing on the Festival Day, but at St John's it has only been sung once, and only then at my special request. Of all the beautiful harvest hymns this for me is the nonpareil for its sheer exuberance and joyfulness. I love the tune which is simple and melodic, and the rhyme scheme is like the ringing of church bells. There are uplifting phrases like \"shouts of exultation\" and there are beautiful words for our comfort, but above all it ends on a note of thrilling visualisation of the coming together of earth and heaven, movingly expressed in this blessed song of thanksgiving for the harvest.\nPat Gardner",

        "raw_content": "2011 ....... Silversmithing Workshops ........ 2011\n\"Anticlastic Raising\"\nThis is a technique which was explored, named, and exploited by Michael Good, a goldsmith from Maine in the USA.\nIt is a technique with which one can create, with relative ease, forms based on the Hyperbolic Parabola. Using this technique, one can make very interesting forms, which on a small scale can be used as pieces of jewellery or as elements in a piece of jewellery. Whereas, on a large scale the forms can be part of vessels or sculptures.\nIn the anticlastic process, the centre of a flat sheet is compressed and its edges stretched so that the surface develops two curves at right angles to each other moving in opposite directions. Historically, there were functional uses for some products made by rudimentary anticlastic techniques, such as spouts, handles, lipped edges, etc. but they did not predominate, nor was the concept emphasised. Indeed, it is only recently that metalsmiths have seriously investigated anticlastic raising as a way of manipulating sheet metal to derive new forms.\nANTICLASTIC RAISING\nThis workshop will take students through some of the various forms which are possible with Anticlastic Raising and give them a full understanding of the technique.\nAnticlastic Raising....300 mm X 150 mm X .5mm & 100 mm X 100 mm X .8 mm copper, brass or bronze sheet.\nThe possibilities are endless and some examples are to be seen in the photos below..\nsome by Brian Clarke and some by Michael Good",

        "raw_content": "Home Job Analysis Equity theory of Job satisfaction\nEquity Theory shows how a person views fairness in regard to social relationships such as with an employer. A person identifies the amount of input (things gained) from a relationship compared to the output (things given) to produce an input/output ratio. They then compare this ratio to the ratio of other people in deciding whether or not they have an equitable relationship. Equity Theory suggests that if an individual thinks there is an inequality between two social groups or individuals, the person is likely to be distressed because the ratio between the input and the output are not equal.\nFor example, consider two employees who work the same job and receive the same pay and benefits. If one individual gets a pay raise for doing the same work as the other, then the less benefited individual will become distressed in his workplace. If, on the other hand, both individuals get pay raises and new responsibilities, then the feeling of equity will be maintained.\nOther psychologists have extended the equity theory, suggesting three behavioral response patterns to situations of perceived equity or inequity (Huseman, Hatfield, & Mile, 1987; O\u2019Neil & Mone 1998). These three types are benevolent, equity sensitive, and entitled. The level by each type affects motivation, job satisfaction, and job performance.\n1. Benevolent-Satisfied when they are under-rewarded compared with co-workers\n2. Equity sensitive-Believe everyone should be fairly rewarded\n3. Entitled-People believe that everything they receive is their just due",

This Park is closed with a closed- canopy forest spans altitudes of 250 meters (820 feet) to above 2,000 meters (6,560 ft) without interruption and this makes it unique from other Parks in Tanzania.\nUdzungwa National Park is also known for being one of the best game viewing and hikers destinations however it has a challenging two-night Mwanihana Trail which leads to the high plateau, with its panoramic views over surrounding sugar plantations, before ascending to Mwanihana peak, the second-highest point in the range.\nWhat amazes me with this Park is that a good number of travelers and the near by locals believe so much in it especially the Ornithologists who think that this Park is an avian wealth. This awful Udzungwa Park is also known for the six primate species and four bird species which were recorded, the Iringa red colobus and Sanje Crested Mangabey which do not occur any where else in the country apart from this Park in Tanzania.\nIt is not only this that this Park has but is yet to reveal other treasures.\nAbout Udzungwa Mountains National Park\nUdzungwa Mountains National Park has a size of 1,990 sq km (770 sq miles), located Five hours (350 km/215 miles) from Dar es Salaam and 65 kms (40 miles) southwest of Mikumi.\nYou are sure that you can not get lost on the way as you head to Udzungwa Mountains National Park. So you can either drive from Dar es Salaam or Mikumi National Park.\nThere are so many things to do once you get to this Park and one of them is a two-hour hike to the waterfall to camping safaris, bird watching, game drives, game viewing, just to mention but a few.\nThe best to go to this Udzungwa Mountains National Park is in the dry season which I July-October. When you go during the wet season, sometimes the road is so slippery.\nWhen you visit this Park, you are to spend your night at either of the following places. Udzungwa forest camp, Ywiga Lodge Udzungwa, Hondo Hondo Forest Lodge, Udzungwa Manga Bay Guest and Mountain View. You are free to choose whatever you are comfortable with.\nAmong all the National Parks in Tanzania, Gombe Stream National Park is the smallest. It is a place that is known for chimpanzees that straddle the steep slopes and river valleys in the sandy northern shore of Lake Tanganyika. The chimpanzees in this place are so funny and interesting, they like being friendly to humans. They are also aware that as soon as you step in their territory, it means play hence there is no need to worry about the trip to Tanzania.\nThese Chimpanzees share about 98% of their genes with humans, and no scientific expertise is required to distinguish between the individual repertoires of pants, hoots and screams that define the celebrities, the powerbrokers, and the supporting characters. Perhaps you will see a flicker of understanding when you look into a chimp's eyes, assessing you in return - a look of apparent recognition across the narrowest of species barriers.\nThe other kind of thing in Gombe National Park stream is the primates and some of which include: Olive baboons and a few others.\nAbout Gombe Stream National Park\nGombe Stream National Park has a size of 52 sq km (20 sq miles) and it is Tanzania\u2019s smallest Park.\nIt is also located 16 km (10 miles) north of Kigoma on the shore of Lake Tanganyika in western Tanzania.\nKigoma is far away from the city. It is connected to Dar and Arusha by scheduled flights, to Dar and Mwanza by a slow rail, to Mwanza, Dar and Mbeya by rough dirt roads, and to Mpulungu in Zambia by a ferry.\nThere are so many activities to do in Gombe National Park and some of them of them are Chimpanzee trekking; hiking, swimming and snorkeling. Apart from these, you can as well decide to visit the Henry Stanley's famous \u201cDr Livingstone I presume\u201d at Ujiji near Kigoma, and watch the renowned dhow builders at work. .\nIf you are interested in going on a safari to Gombe Stream, it would be more advisable to visit the Park in a dry season as chimpanzees do not roam in the wet season.\nThe dry season is from July- October and may be late December and the wet season is February-June, November and late December.",

The mills of justice grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine.\nSo concluded the First Circuit Court of Appeals in Vineberg v. Bissonnette. It affirmed summary judgment for successors of an art dealer who lost this work to Nazi Spoliation. The dispute was an appeal of Vineberg v. Bissonnette, 529 F. Supp. 2d 300 (D.R.I. 2007). I briefly commented on the earlier district court ruling here.\nThe work is a 19th-century painting by Franz Xaver Winterhalter titled Girl from the Sabine Mountains. It is valued at roughly $70,000 \u2013 $94,000 USD according to Ray Henry in brief AP story. Katie Mulvaney also has a very fine overview for the Providence Journal.\nThe current possessor based her defense on laches, an equitable doctrine which essentially posits that it wouldn\u2019t be fair to allow the claimant to regain title to the work. No luck for the current possessor however. The opinion was not particularly kind to Bissonnette, perhaps because the appeal seemed thin on the merits. In one passage Senior Circuit Judge Bruce M. Selya admonished the appellant \u201cProving prejudice requires more than the frenzied brandishing of a cardboard sword; it requires at least a hint of what witnesses or evidence a timeous investigation might have yielded\u201d (emphasis added).

        "raw_content": "\u201cThis Is Not a Molecular Visualizer\u201d\nCool TechnologyPosted by Jonas Bostr\u00f6m Wed, November 18, 2015 23:46:35\nShortly after the first iPhone was launched Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, the former CEO of Nokia, commented on Apple's new product. The iPhone was brushed off as a niche product, with comments like \u201cthis is not a mobile phone\u201d. Kallasvuo was right, it is more than that. Nokia\u2019s mobile phone business has since collapsed. Many others have also failed to recognize the impact of new technology, and have failed to remain innovative and stay on the market. For example, Blockbuster was outperformed by Netflix who made on-demand streaming tv and video available to viewers. Kodak is another giant to falter in the face of advancing technology. Everyone knows that the new king of digital photography is Instagram.\nThe digital technology is currently changing our world in unprecedented ways. I have previously argued that the time has come for cloud computing. Another exciting example is the recent advances in interaction design creating new and very cool ways to use computer programs. For example, the ability to create highly visual 3D environments that simulates physical presence in the real world \u2013 a virtual reality.\nVirtual reality was hype in the late eighties, but it never took off. Now, virtual reality is back with a vengeance; affordable with significantly improved performance. Thus, the long-promised technology is becoming mainstream. Virtual reality has begun to play a role in gaming and films. For example, Mythbusters is already shooting in virtual reality. As a moment of affirmation the Time magazine put virtual reality and the Oculus founder Lucky Palmer on the cover of its August issue.\nMoreover, Zuckerberg and Facebook acquired the virtual reality startup Oculus with the words \u201cSo if you go back ten years, most of how people communicated were through text. We\u2019re going through a period where now it\u2019s mostly visual and photos. We\u2019re entering into a period where that\u2019s increasingly going to be video [...] I think immersive 3D content is the obvious next thing after video.\u201d\nWe wanted to give virtual reality a try and developed a tool for molecular modeling (Molecular Rift) as part of a collaboration with the Department of Interaction Design (LTH). The ability to interact with molecular models is relevant to drug discovery since computer-generated molecular models are frequently used to obtain deeper understandings in many areas (e.g. ligand-protein complexes). In fact, visualizing and interacting with molecular models are a significant part of a drug designer\u2019s day job nowadays. The virtual reality environment was created by a talented student using Oculus Rift (a head-mounted display) coupled with the MS Kinect gaming sensor to handle gesture recognition, eliminating the need for standard input devices (keyboard and mouse), providing the drug designer with a more natural way to navigate in 3D.\nStudent Magnus Norrby, a 10x programmer, demoing \u2018his\u2019 Molecular Rift at an internal science symposium\nThe BIG (and somewhat boring) question \u2013 is this very cool virtual reality environment more useful than using traditional molecular visualizers? Well, it should be noted that a virtual reality experience is different from using conventional 3D computer graphics. In the virtual reality, objects have a location in 3D-space relative to the user\u2019s position. Thus the main difference is that you are working with things as opposed to working with images of things. The brain interprets it as you interact with the objects, and you feel like you are really there. The presence changes everything. Traditional visualizers \u2018just\u2019 show molecules in front of you, with Oculus a drug designer can enter a protein-ligand complex and look around.\nIs that more useful? No one method will ever single-handedly make all the difference in drug discovery (not even CRISPR). Each method, however valuable it is, is one part of the puzzle. That said, if you believe that understanding the 3D component is important, then we believe virtual reality the best way to do it. What we learned during development was that once people try it, they get it. \u201cThis is so cool\u201d \u2013 was an often heard comment. To compare with sophisticated CAVEs (which are also very cool!), Molecular Rift is easily accessible and the cost for setting up the environment (i.e. Oculus Rift and MS Kinect) is reasonable (a couple of hundred USD). It can easily be used at home or in office spaces. Molecular Rift and its source code have been made open source and is available at GitHub free of charge. We integrated an open-source cheminformatics toolkit paving the way for future development \u2013 hopefully in a collaborative and concerted fashion.\nWhether Molecular Rift will be the new iPhone of molecular visualizers or be reduced to some kind of exhibition, something to show-off for \u201cimportant\u201d visitors remains to be seen. If you are interested in the details, the manuscript is here. It includes initial attempts on voice control, and one section with reflections on virtual reality's capabilities in Chemistry and future possibilities. For example, Chemistry as a University subject is certainly not trending. In many countries gloomy pictures are reported. Gamifying learning using Molecular Rift might be one way to motivate and inspire students.\nMolecular Rift Is Not a Molecular Visualizer.\nComments(2)//blogs.idrugdesign.com/#post8\nThe Halo(gen) Effect in para-Substituted Phenyl Rings\nDrug DesignPosted by Jonas Bostr\u00f6m Wed, November 18, 2015 23:37:02\nThis was first posted: here\nOne key to successfully progress a drug discovery project is to make first-rate decisions (hopefully) based on unambiguous data. This is not trivial since our scientific problems are often very complex and data can be fuzzy. In drug design we try to approach this uncertainty by being rational. It is however sometimes forgotten that our rational approaches may not be that rational after all \u2013 decisions may well be based on personal preferences and intuitive biases.... perhaps unconsciously made on biased data.\nIn their great paper \u201cJudgment under Uncertainty\u201d the behavioral scientists Kahneman and Tversky elaborated on decision making and how people deal with uncertain events. It was shown that we tend to push ahead with confidence even though lacking enough information (to make informed decisions). There\u2019 also the entertaining (?) and somewhat controversial notion that scientific facts can be constructed in a tribe-like fashionin laboratory settings. In drug discovery, a number of psychological biases that pose risks to good decision making was recently highlighted by Segal and Chadwick.\n\u201cThe Halo Effect\u201d is a specific type of confirmation bias that makes us perceive someone (or something) favorably because of one very positive quality in that person/thing. That is, one good feature lends its attractiveness to other properties of a person\u2019s character: \u201cthat Hollywood actress is beautiful, so she must also be clever/happy/fill in the blank\u201c. We tend to make attributions based on other data that we for some reason believe are reliable, and it can cloud our judgment and infer with decision-making.\nDavid Beckham is looking good and few in the world can kick the ball like him. He's likable and extremely popular. It is easy to think that he's all good. Nonetheless, he has recently been accused of triggering a halo effect around unhealthy drinksby endorsing Pepsi. Is there also a halo(gen) effect in para-substituted phenyl rings? They are (on average) metabolically more stable than their ortho and meta regioisomeric partners and (perhaps therefore) the most popular regioisomer among medicinal chemists. Yet, para-substitution is (on average) the worst regioisomer with respect to hERG binding and aqueous solubility.\nDean Brown, a colleague of mine, recently discovered an unexpected biasin most (if not all) drug databases by performing exhaustive population analysis of phenyl-ring substitutions. It could be concluded that para-substitution are significantly more often occurring than meta and ortho. In attempt to gauge AstraZeneca medicinal chemists personal preferences regarding aromatic substitution pattern we set up a survey. The result was clear \u2013 the primary choice was indeed para. The two main reasons for this preference were: (a) para-substitution provides better protection against metabolism than ortho/meta; (b) the para-position was most likely to boost potency. The first reason was confirmed true whilst the second not.\nThere could be many reasons for this bias, such as the Topliss work that promoted para-substitutions, a range of possible DMPK (solubility, metabolism) and Safety (hERG) property differences, as well as ligand-binding effects (potency). Other possible factors are synthetic accessibility, cost differences for chemical reagents and historically different design strategies (classic pharmacology vs. target-based design). All of these were scrutinized and it was concluded that the para bias could not be attributed to one single factor. What we do know, however, is that personal preferences and subjectivity still play a pretty big role when selecting reagents for syntheses. In fact, a range of possible preconceptions was recently highlighted when the Dean Brown article was inthepipelined (it\u2019s verb right?). Not to mention that luck influences most everything of what we do.\nWhy does this matter? Using skewed molecular databases can be risky if one is not aware of any uneven distributions. For example, if there are more para-substituted phenyls in a database than ortho/meta there will be more para hits (from a screen) out of sheer probability. This could in turn lead the inexperienced scientist to assume that the screened target favors para-substitution. Luckily there are remedies \u2013 statistical approaches combined with cheminformatics can be used to avoid these issue.\nRelying on our intuition is often effective, when making decisions in situations of uncertainty. However, failing to understand the underlying reasons can lead to systematic and predictable errors as the one just described (ease of synthesis is not the reason for the para bias). We hope that our analysis will lead to a broader awareness of unevenly populated databases, a better understanding of how to deal with them to improve our judgments and decisions in medicinal chemistry. To learn more about this, a biased suggestion would be to read our article to see if any of your potential prejudices (regarding phenyl substituents) are supported by data.\nDon\u2019t Push That Single (Placebo) Target!\nThis was first posted:09/29/2014 here\nThe popular Swedish video game commentator PewDiePie, hosting the currently most subscribed YouTube channel, recently highlighted a game called \u201cDumb Ways to Die\u201d. One of the dumb ways to die is to press a red button. The only thing you need to do to progress in the game is to resist the urge to press a red button that appears on the screen. It's surprisingly difficult not to push, and of course PewDiePie pushed it\u2026and probably did many of his 30+ million (!) subscribers that as well.\nAs a matter of fact, it is likely that clever people such as yourself also have pushed similar buttons, with a clear expectation of what was going to happen. Some of the public buttons, that we push daily, don\u2019t do anything at all. For example, in New York City around 75% of the pedestrian crossing buttons do nothing. Similar numbers have been reported for Los Angeles and for other big cities in the US. Around the globe, many traffic signals have been automated to optimize throughput in intersections. Reason being, if pedestrians were allowed to manually alter the signals (by pushing the buttons) traffic would run less smoothly. A more conspiratorial theory is that cities won\u2019t pay to remove the push-buttons. It\u2019s cheaper to cut the cord, and leave us with the buttons\u2026and the illusion of control. Not a bad thing perhaps. We humans tend to feel better when we do something that we think we have control over, even if we don\u2019t. These \"placebo buttons\u201d can occur in other places (e.g. the open/close buttons in elevators), as well as in other forms. For example, many top athletes have their rituals before important games, and stockbrokers often believe they can control the market.\nIn drug discovery, where uncertainty often is high and predictability can be low, we also tend to resort to a reductionist mode. The simplistic \u201cone drug, one target, one disease\u201d concept has, for example, dominated pharmaceutical research the last decades. Most efforts have been focused on hitting one particular target, hit it hard (nM) and selectively*. Now, this is somewhat difficult to understand. For most drugs we suspect and for lots we now know they interact with more than one target.\nWith large databases of biological activity becoming publicly available, drugs that previously have been claimed to be selective against one target, have later been shown to hit several targets. For example, the histamine H1 receptor was believed to be the only target for cetirizine and hydroxyzine, which both now have been reported to interact with other GPCRs (in in vitro assays). Similarly, celecoxib is referred to as a COX-2 selective inhibitor; although we now know that it interacts with at least two other targets (carbonic anhydrase II and 5-lipoxygenase).\nOn the other side of the scale we have the antipsychotic drugs (and multi-kinase inhibitors), where a plethora (>20) of targets have been known for a long time for most of them. Numerous mechanism-of-action hypotheses have been formulated, nearly all trying to tease out one particular target responsible for the therapeutic effect. But no selective drugs have reached the market, despite 50+ years of research for better antipsychotics. My own Ph.D. studies can serve as an illustrative example. In brief, the \u201cdirty\u201d drug clozapine had shown slightly more potency at the dopamine D4 receptor over D2, and hence the leading theory back then was that selective D4 antagonist would be beneficial. We (and others) managed to design selective and high-affinity D4 antagonists, but without the desired therapeutic effect.\nIt is very clear that not all diseases can be sorted under the \u201cone target, one disease\u201d theory. Humans are complex, and drugs are likely to affect several biochemical responses simultaneously, which in turn will cause feedback reactions on the effected pathways. The chance that the net result linearly correlates to a single target is almost negligible (not to mention degeneracy and robustness in biological system as a central survival mechanism). Not surprisingly, a lesson learnt from the fate of AstraZeneca's drug pipeline was that 40% of the AZ internal drug projects lack a clear link between the main target and disease.\nThere are some other facts disfavoring the \u201cone drug, one target\u201d push-button theory. Drugs don\u2019t have to be high-affinity to work; the most widely used drug aspirin has no high-affinity target reported. Some \u201coff-target\u201d activities have been reported to contribute to the efficacy of SSRI\u2019s (e.g. fluoxetine). A drug can act through several different mechanisms and unrelated targets (e.g. ritonavir inhibits both the HIV protease and CYP2D6). Many anti-depressants show different target profiles, but result largely in the same therapeutic effect. Finally, it\u2019s indeed possible to bring new drugs to the market without knowing their targets. There are many (30+) drugs with unknown mechanism of action.\nAnd then there\u2019s the relentless perception that the \u201cone drug, one target\u201d approach will provide inherently safer drugs. The assumption is that drugs cannot cause side-effects via other targets if they\u2019re selective. However logical that may seem there is one thing wrong with that statement \u2013 it\u2019s not right. Well, it hasn\u2019t been proven and the jury is still out. Side-effects may indeed come from interaction with the therapeutic target itself, due to no (or little) separation between the efficacious dose and safety related outcomes. Another point that deserves to be stressed is that toxicity can arise from many different mechanisms, and that the term promiscuity in itself can easily be misinterpreted as the more targets you hit the greater the safety concern.\nThe scientific problems we are trying to solve (and understand) in drug discovery are extremely hard, and we need to recognize the complexity and powerful forces of randomness more. In hindsight, this reductionistic approach must have hampered drug discovery. It\u2019s easy to understand the fondness and general acceptance of the theory. The desire to generate simple (and \"not even wrong\") concepts is understandable, particularly when they are easy to measure. Trying to optimize for multiple targets, with optimal phys-chem properties may be viewed as a too challenging task to even start.\nNevertheless, there's a willingness to challenge this view, and move away from the simplistic target definition view. To be fair, \"polypharmacology\" (a more fancy word for \u201cdirty\u201d) is used increasingly more often now, and it has been labeled as the \u201cnext paradigm in drug discovery\u201d. Regulatory hurdles are fewer: the FDA have recently approved polypharmacological drugs (asenapine, sunitinib, and dronedarone) in several different therapy areas (anticancer, antipsychotics and antidepressants) for different target classes (kinases, GPCRs and ion-channels). In addition, multikinase drugs are believed to suppress mutations and expression changes and thus prevent drug resistance.\nBut still, at conferences, in the recent literature, and in current drug projects the \u201cone target, one drug\u201d approach very much dominates. There might well be cases when hitting one target will do the trick, but that\u2019s likely to be the exception rather than the norm. Reflections on targets are important, but if we continue trying to find the \u201cright target\u201d and just push one button it\u2019s quite possible that we, just like PewDiePie, end up not progressing\u2026in the game of drug discovery.\n* Although the \"Term-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named\" (Big Data) is indeed here the \"compound x target\" interaction matrix is still extremely sparse. The word \"selective\" is thus very much a relative concept, since it only refers to those targets we have data for. Both unexpected positive and negative mechanisms may come from hitting unknown targets. One \"easy\" solution out of this would of course be to expose our compounds to living animals as early as possibly in drug projects.\nCompulsive Gambling, Pregnancy Scores and Matched-Molecular Series\nCheminformaticsPosted by Jonas Bostr\u00f6m Wed, November 18, 2015 23:20:01\nMedicinal chemists are known to display behaviour akin to compulsive gamblers \u2013 \u201cthis last molecule will solve [fill in the blank] and be the next [candidate] drug\u201d. This can be attributed to a combination of a positive never-give-up attitude and a naive over-confidence in forecasting.To be fair, with more computer power, better algorithms and more data we are indeed constantly getting better at forecasting. But the gains in our ability to predict are still often dwarfed by randomness and the complexity of the problem at hand.\nIn his wonderful book \u201cThe Black Swan\u201d Nassim Taleb colourfully describes that we humans often over-interpret and come up with stories that are used to convince ourselves that we understand the past. Sequences of events are taken and explanations are interlaced into them. This despite the fact that much of what did happen was deemed unlikely, if not insane, before it actually happened. Still, we find it rather trivial to post-rationalize and come up with logic explanations which do not seem crazy after the event happened. This illusion of understanding and our ability to simplify is called the \u201cnarrative fallacy\u201d. Take the most famous doping incident in sport for example. It is obvious to everyone now that Lance Armstrong was doped. But before he was caught, Armstrong\u2019s success was credited to hard work and mental superpower. Few people, if any, suspected that he was doped, and it was only after the facts emerged people believed it. And now it obvious to everyone that he had to be doped to win Tour de France seven (!) times in a row.\nThe human mind is hard-wired to construct stories around events, making them easier to remember. To stretch it just a little, it\u2019s almost as we have a got a mini John Nash sitting on our shoulder (I mean the Russel Crowe-Nash version that could see patterns where there were no patterns, not the real John Nash, the Nobel prize winner version).\nRussel Crowe as John Nash in \u201cA Beautiful Mind\u201d can see patterns where there are no patterns (left), whereas the new matched-molecular series tool Matsy can find patterns where there really are patterns (right).\nLo and behold, there are ways to escape the narrative fallacy. By applying hypothesis-based approaches \u2013 conducting experiments with testable predictions, knowledge can supersede storytelling. A previous blogpost addresses some of these concerns \u2013 Anthony Nicholls at OpenEye and Pat Walters at Vertex are championing for better use of statistics and reproducibility in molecular modelling.\nThe more information one collects and the smarter one uses it, the better the predictions are likely to be. There are, however, entertaining examples of when collecting too much information and being too clever leads to unwanted results. A personal favourite is when the American retail store Target figured out that a teenage girl was pregnant due to her buying patterns, before her father did (making him quite upset). The way Target went about can be seen as standard. They maintained a database storing everything their customers bought and used math and statistics to find patterns, which could be formed into a \u201cpregnancy score\u201d. They identified key products (scent-free soap, bags of cotton balls, hand sanitizers, washcloths etc.), and when these were combined in certain amounts and ways a pregnancy alert would go off, and targeted advertising went out to the customer. Such recommender system approaches are often very useful. Target realized, however, that revealingthat they had such information freaks people out.\nWhat has this got to do with drug design then? Well\u2026there are many large databases of biological activity data available that could be mined in a similar fashion, using new algorithms and evaluated with statistics. The concept of leveraging such datasets to predict new trends is conceptually very attractive, and is consequently a hot topic in the current medicinal chemistry literature.\nIn collaboration with Noel O'Boyle and Roger Sayle (NextMove Software) we recentlydescribed a matched-molecular series*method that exploits \u201cBig Data\u201d to recommend what R-group to put on next. Matched-series may be seen as an extension to the popular matched-molecular pairs approach. A draw-back with matched-pairs is that effects are often normally distributed around zero, when investigating big sets of biological data. We found that certain activity orders of R-groups are preferred and the longer the matched series, the more predictive it is. A bit like the pregnancy-score. These observations provide medicinal chemists with a knowledge-based recommender tool to help win the jackpot quicker. The tool is called Matsy, and can consequently be used as a (testable) hypothesis generator for molecular design. In case you are interested in finding out more about this approach, the manuscript is freely available here.\nFinally, if you would like to hear more on the \u201cnarrative fallacy\u201d just listen to athletes/coaches/fans explaining why they lost/won their latest game. We scientists do not do such things, right?\n*A matched molecular series describes a set of molecules with the same scaffold but different R-groups at a particular position\nA World Without (New) Drugs \u2013 Play It Before You Live It?\nGamificationPosted by Jonas Bostr\u00f6m Wed, November 18, 2015 23:17:28\nGamification is currently peaking on Gartner's Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies. Typical during this phase is that some companies take action, whereas many do not. Within drug discovery there are, logically, few examples of successful implementations. The naive idea of this blogpost is to change that\u2026wishful thinking perhaps. For once, like any other new trend, the next phase in the hype cycle is the \u201ctrough of disillusionment\u201d where many examples of poor implementations will follow. In addition, the power of gaming is not yet fully understood, and gamers are sometimes seen as \u201cwasting their time\u201d or not \u201cliving in real life\u201d. However, playing games can be seen as a happiness engine (if voluntary participation) providing constant rewards at a difficulty level we (often) just can master, unlike real life. When designed correctly, gamification has proven to be successful in engaging people to change behaviours, develop skills and solve problems, in many different areas. To name one specific example, Nike+ has turned fitness into a game, designed to solve motivational issues when it comes to running. Nike+ has now as many as 18 million members worldwide.\nTo back up a little, computer and video games have come a long way since the days of Pac-Man and Donkey Kong, and so have those who play them. Today\u2019s games are enjoyed by players all ages and backgrounds. According to the iconic game-designer Jane McGonigal, the average young American will have spent more than ten-thousand hours playing video or computer games by the age of 21. This corresponds to the entire time spent in elementary school (1thto the 9th grade) taught all other subjects, in Sweden, where similar gaming patterns are assumed. For those of you familiar with Malcolm Gladwell's ten-thousand-hours of practise theory, the obvious conclusion is that these youngsters will not just be good gamers; they will be exceptionally good gamers. Hence, we will soon have an entire generation possessing outstanding technical skills at the same thing \u2013 gaming. What a human resource! Not to be confused with human resources management.\nIn her superb book \u201cReality is broken\u201d McGonigal describes that gamers are exceptionally skilled at one central thing \u2013 collaboration. Collaboration may be described as the collective effort of achieving a joint goal and/or joining forces. It's about creating something that would not be possible to do alone. To me, this sounds a lot like a drug discovery project, as well as many other types of projects of course.\nNike+ and EteRNA both use game design techniques in a non-gaming context. When playing EteRNA, one can interact with thousands of other players with the goal to improve computer models predicting RNA folding.\nWithin medicine there are games helping patients taking their pills in time, and within drug discovery the most well-known gamification examples are probably Foldit, and a Facebook game about drug discovery called 'Syrum'. The latter certainly did not engage me (not realistic, not user-friendly and not collaborative). There's also EteRNA. Similar to Foldit, EteRNA engages users to solve puzzles related to the folding of RNA molecules. It's really quite cool!\nThere are of course endless of opportunities to successfully implement gamification within drug discovery. The world is running out of oil, as well as new drugs; there is a serious game called World Without Oil which was created to call attention to and engineer solutions to a possible near-future global oil shortage. One wishful idea would be to copy the WWO game1and design it towards a massive collaborative effort to address the decline in developing new drugs. Interestingly, copying is not frowned upon in the gaming business, it\u2019s rather the opposite.\nIn many ways computer-aided drug design is similar to (serious) gaming \u2013 it fulfils many of the criteria required. In fact, there's an example going back all the way to the early eighties,2demonstrating a computer game very much like today's compound library enumeration tools (combined with a prediction). Not too different to my day-to-day job. Although there has been progress since then (e.g. mobile apps3), one can certainly leverage on game techniques even further.\nThe software does not all have to run on iPads or the new PS4, and include badges and leaderboards, but to reach the next level they need to be much more collaborative and intuitive. Capish?! Do you hear that all my favorite software vendors? \u2013 let\u2019s make reality even more fun!\n1. The WWO game's tagline is \"Play it \u2013 before you live it.\n2.

There's a downside to that however. An in-depth analysis revealed that a \"curse\" (i.e. poorer performance in the near future) followed a cover appearance 37.2 percent of the time. The largest effect was seen for golfers, who were jinxed almost 70 percent of the time. The jinx effect may be attributed to an often-forgotten statistical rule termed \u201cregression to mean\u201d.\nWikipedia helps us with the definition: \u201cin statistics, regression to the mean is the phenomenon that if a variable is extreme on its first measurement, it will tend to be closer to the average on its second measurement \u2014 and, paradoxically, if it is extreme on its second measurement, it will tend to have been closer to the average on its first\u201d. Hence, after a peak performance, it is likely to go downhill from there. Lindsey Vonn effectively illustrates the effect on the cover in the middle below.\nRegression effects occur whenever the correlation between two measures is incomplete, and since regression to mean can predict both the future and the past, it effectively puts causality out of play. The more extreme the accomplishment is the more regression we should expect. This can be difficult to grasp and it is dissatisfying to us humans. Daniel Kahneman, Nobel Prize winner in economic sciences, states in his marvelous book \u201cThinking, Fast and Slow\u201d that we always want to associate a cause to an effect, and that we have difficulties with handling statistical facts. On top of that, it is a mathematical inevitable consequence that luck influences most everything of what we do. Events happen over which we have no control, and these can carry more weight than our own actions. When asked his favorite equation, Kahneman shared this:\nSuccess = talent + luck\nGreat success = a little more talent + a lot of luck\nIf, for example, you play golf and pull off an exceptionally stunning score regression to mean predict the next round more towards the mean (in either time direction!), in the absence of other information. The same effect is obviously also true if you perform a virtual screen and obtain an extraordinary hit-rate. The next time you perform a virtual screen the results are likely not to be as good. You might be jinxed!? One way to make sure that you can draw any conclusions is to compare with a control, for example using a NULL hypothesis.\nMolecular modeling and virtual screening reports are notoriously bad at accounting for statistical effects. One reason for this is that testing compounds in biology assay is often very expensive, and modelers/chemists/biologists generally do not want to \u2018waste\u2019 precious slots with \u2018some random compounds\u2019. This is extra problematic for low-throughput assays, since extreme effects are larger for small sample sizes. But, without randomization it is difficult to rule out that an extreme hit-rate was not a twist of fate.\nThere is also a danger that without proper validation new modeling software with one or two early accidental successes are hyped, and vendors can play on this and not have to worry about people validating their software and coming up unimpressed. As scientists we need to be more mindful about such things. The modeling community is however progressing; general statistics and the quest for reproducibilityare being taken more seriously. In fact, my friend Anthony Nicholls arranged a different conferencedevoted entirely to statistics in molecular modeling this summer (slide decks).\nTo be fair, other disciplines than molecular modeling can also be sloppy. The Sports Illustrated analysis mentioned above did not, for example, include a NULL model. A colleague of mine hinted that it could just as well be a blessing instead of a curse! Here, I need to come clean and admit that I have misbehaved myself. We recently publisheda virtual screen where shape and electrostatics was used to select a few (68) compounds from a large database (1M). The remarkable result was a hit compound, a fibrinolysis inhibitor four times as potent as the reference compound (an existing drug!). No NULL model was used. My bad. To my defense the method we used had previously proven useful on numerous occasions. There was also a significant amount of luck. The hit compound was acquired and added to the AstraZeneca corporate database only a month before the virtual screen was made.\nFinally, might there be a Journal of Medicinal Chemistry curse as well? The cover to the right(above) is made by yours truly to \u201chighlight outstanding research\u201d performed by AZ colleagues and myself (Note: words in italics from J. Med. Chem editors, not me). Was that the kiss of death for me? I hope not. Another classical way to judge if you have an extreme value is to increase the sample size. That is, if you can repeat an extreme occurrence multiple times it can both be outstanding and expected behavior. Golfer Arnold \"the more I practice the luckier I get\" Palmer has appeared on as many as thirteen Sports Illustrated covers, which is both outstanding and expected for him. I also play golf, is there causal connection?\nSearching for E.T. in Space and Drugs in the Cloud\nA long time ago, in the state of Denmark, something unusual was going on. All the screensavers in the lab had been changed to new ones. The new ones all appeared to be identical, and they had the same purpose \u2013 to search for extraterrestrial intelligence in outer space.\nI quickly learned that my Ph.D. supervisor wanted to be part of the SETI@home project. SETI@home was (and is) using screensaver technology to analyze radio signals from outer space. It is now a well-known example of distributed computing. The power of distributed computing quickly becomes apparent when analyzing stats from SETI's first three years \u2013 the project accomplished in that time what a single computer would have taken 400,000 years to do.\nWithin the drug discovery community, Professor Graham Richards at the University of Oxford was an early adopter. Richards and his \u201dScreensaver Lifesaver\u201d project exploited idle time on 3 million PC\u2019s, cross the globe, to dock 3.5 billion compounds in protein targets. The results from the effort still remain inconclusive however. Among other initiatives, related to drug discovery, Folding@home is probably the most well-known.\nBig Pharma are late into the game. Security concerns, both real and imaginary, are/were believed to outweigh possible benefits. This reasoning may be excused since the vast amounts of proprietary data within a company are key assets. Nevertheless, times are changing. Distributed computing within Big Pharma is here \u2013 in the shape of a Cloud!\nCloud computing is a synonym for distributed computing over a network and means the ability to run a program (e.g. to search for drugs and aliens) on many connected computers at the same time. The computing resources are typically off-site, available on demand, scalable, and paid per use.\nI attended an excellent meeting a few weeks ago. Joe Corkery, VP at OpenEye, gave a very interesting and balanced overview on the current state of Cloud computing in Pharma. It turns out that several Big Pharma\u2019s recently have started to exploit the Cloud; from Virtual Screens to Electronic Lab Notebooks. But the Cloud still generates most traction amongst CROs and small biotechs, where a remotely managed and maintained IT system is seen as of greater economic benefit.\nJoe Corkery left stage with a parting thought: \u201cIn a pay-per-use world, speed matters.\u201d This observation is often over-looked; the Cloud can be extremely cost-effective when time is a priority. As an example, Joe highlighted that BMS used Amazon's services to build a research Cloud for running computationally intense PK simulations for their clinical studies. In this fashion they were able to reduce the number of enrolled pediatric subjects from 60 to 40. That\u2019s a significant saving!\nMoreover, there is now a real incentive to make software faster since one pays for the time one spends in the Cloud. An incentive for getting happy customers that is. On many occasions we, the customers, do not really \u2018need\u2019 faster software. But faster software will be cheaper-to-use software. On that note, in the area of computer-aided molecular design it is not uncommon that algorithms and software have been written by non computer scientists. These are typically people who give accuracy more attention than speed and efficiency, instead of all three. So there might be some room for efficiency improvement here\u2026and it\u2019s always possible to make things more efficient, right? As a consequence, speedier software may lead to new ways of using it and lead to unexpected findings. That said, I am personally not in favor of a (pay-per-use) world where there's an obvious disincentive to use the software. This presents a hindrance, small though it may be (a few bucks), that might put people off from launching that extra little investigation\u2026that in the end would have made all the difference.\nI believe the Cloud computing is going to be a game-changer. My hope is that large-scale computations will provide a springboard for new scientific achievements. That is, providing opportunities for doing things that were completely intractable before (full flexible docking using quantum chemistry, including explicit waters?!), instead of just doing a lot more of the same in the spirit of \u201clet's switch off the brain and turn on the computers in the Cloud\u201d.\nI bet that we\u2019ll find drugs in the Cloud before we find aliens in space. Is there anyone out there, on Earth, willing to take the bet?\nCopy More! Copy Better!\nIn the business literature and in various seminars, conferences and workshops, we are continuously bombarded with the message that originality and new ideas are good, while copied and old ideas are bad or unethical \u2013 criminal even. Such stupidity. Such complete and utter idiocy!\nIt is not true that original ideas are always the best, or that copying is always inferior. On the contrary, history is full of stories where original thinking failed completely, and copies managed to outdo originals. Take Google, for instance. Google got in the game at a stage of massive expansion, and was at the time just one search engine among many others. If you look at Google today, you\u2019ll see a company famous for its many brilliant web-based services, but also a company where the most used ones tend to be copies or developments of things invented elsewhere. When I say that Google have copied en masse, I say it with praise and envy. Google are brilliant because they are amazing copiers! Copying can be a highly successful strategy, even though it might not sound quite as elegant and alluring as being recognized as a great original.\nIn a (rare) moment of clarity, I thought what would not be better than copying text myself to illustrate the power of copying. In fact, what you just read has been copied, word by word, from the book \u201cDangerous Ideas\u201d [1], with permission from author Alf Rehn. Alf Rehn is a former professor of innovation and entrepreneurship. Thinkers 50, the listing of the world\u2019s top 50 business thinkers, recently included him on their Guru Radar\u2026and I love his provocative way of writing.\nIn the book, Alf\u2019s lists eight \u201ccommandments\u201d (or 7 since the 8th is a copy of the 7th) on how to copy better. One commandment reads \u201cSometimes you just need to change contexts\u2026\u201d \u2013 think current efforts on rescuing and repurposing drugs? Another one states \u201cSmall changes can generate big effects: \u201cDancing with the Stars is a copy of American Idol, but with famous amateurs dancing. Whoever thought of that little variation is rich today\u201d. The analogy that comes to mind here are \u201cfollow-on\u201d drugs. The most famous example of a \u201cfollow-on\u201d drug is probably Levitra, which is basically a short nitrogen-walk from the original Viagra. Levitra sells for an enormous amount of money (total sales 2010: $242,446,000) [2], and helps people to a\u2026eh\u2026very natural way of copying.\nNumerous drugs are \u201cfollow-ons\u201d, and small changes can indeed make for important patient benefits. For example, replacing a twice-a-day with a once-a-day pill (Terazosin vs Prazosin [3]), and switching to \u2018personalized\u2019 medicines (some people respond well to Prozac but not Zoloft). Even so, the approach is most often mentioned with a negative connotation. \u201cFollow-ons\u201d are generally not considered to be truly innovative, as well as the relentless debate on their legal and financial aspects. In a recent review, we analyzed the DiMasi and Faden data set [4] of \u201cfirst-in class\u2013follow-on\u201d pairs on the market. As many as 70% (N=74) of the pairs are characterized by minor structural variations [5]. Thus, whereas it is generally accepted that large changes in molecular structure leads to large variations in properties, we tend to take too lightly on the fact that small molecular changes can also generate big effects.\nIt should not be forgotten that many astonishing scientific advances come from copying the science of Mother Nature itself. Evidently, many drugs are close analogues of native ligands or natural product. So, the design message is the following. Do not be afraid of seeking inspiration from competitor\u2019s patent specifications, we have provided tools for that [6], or from nature. Biology and chemical space is to your advantage, increasing the odds that your optimized compounds will be novel with a significantly different, and improved, profile. And when encountering a medicinal chemistry related problem that you believe is specific to your structural series, take a moment to reflect. Your next candidate drug might be closer than you think, quite possibly only a few atoms away.\nSome final words of wisdom from \u201cDangerous Ideas\u201d [1]:\nI\u2019m obviously not encouraging people to flout copyright law, and just as in any other activity, you need to ensure that you\u2019re behaving in a sensible and ethical way when copying. But our reaction to this tends to be exaggerated and overly cautions, and just like no one wants to be queer zero, we\u2019re all afraid of being seen as less than original. There is no shame in copying. On the contrary, it is a necessity. Instead of turning away, we should make copying our friend, create copying cultures in our organizations, and see how this approach can generate both brilliant new ideas and an understanding for the reinvention of wheels. We have nothing to lose but our preconceived notions.\nRock on! [7] Alf\nRehn, A.

        "raw_content": "Articles \u00bb Who do you think you are?\n\u201cYou become what you think about\u201d ~ Earl Nightingale. Do not be deceived the title may sound a bit sarcastic, but may be let me rephrase the question; what do you think you are? True to the question many of us do not even know what we think of ourselves. I asked many of my colleagues and friends the same question and the answers I was getting were shocking 90% of them have never even thought about it. This may be true to you. Bob Richards says \u201cyou are what you think you are, and I agree with him 100%. You see the world only sees and knows what you give them or rather allow them to see. Your perception of yourself may be different from what the outside world sees.\nWhat you think about yourself may very different from what I think about you. They say all growth is from within and what is seen from outside is the fruit of what is inside. It is therefore very important that you form a very positive identity about yourself and portray it to the world. I will give an example of a married couple. If you portray your spouse, as a bad person to your family that is what they will get. Simply because you \u201cknow\u201d them better than your other members of the family and the opposite is true. I have outlined below a few attributes that will help us think about whom we really are and accept what we think we are.\nWe all have roles to play in our lives and these, change as we go through them. Take your mind back as to when you were still a young person, what was your role then in your family? What did your parents, your brothers and sisters including your peers expect of you? We all start out our roles as sons\u2019 or daughters, sisters\u2019 or brothers then friends, pupils\u2019 employees and the list goes on and on. Compare that to now. You could be married and have children surely your role has definitely changed. This simply shows you the pattern of physical growth and responsibility being taken on by you. I am sure just reading the list of roles above has conjured up some images in your mind of what each of those means to you.\nI know you have some kind of perception for each of them. Surely as you grow in your roles you will realise that these roles go with certain behaviours and expectations. These behaviours that you exhibit are what define you. To some they come instinctively to others they have to be instilled. Whatever, the case they are in built before they are shown to the world. The bible says \u201cas a man speaks so is he in his heart\u201d. Your reaction to the outside world is as a result of what you harbour in the inside. What you harbour in the inside is as a result of what you constantly think you are. Let me make things a bit clearer for you by defining what a role is. \u201cThis is what you are expected to do or your function\u201d.\nThe different roles that we take up during our daily lives help us to think reasonably of the part we play in society at large and what is expected of us. Remember that you are part of one big family and each member of the family has distinct roles to play for the betterment of the family. Un fortunately the larger family has broken down and it is up to you and I to be role models. You can only be a better role model if you change your thinking and put on your best behaviours. Your character is largely determined by what you think you are. In fact, they say your thoughts determine what you become. You may have noticed that your role keeps changing during the day. Some may wake as husband sleeping next to your wife, at that time your role is of a husband, next wake up the children and your have a double role of both father and husband and as the day goes on your roles keep on changing and increasing. It is this change in roles that help us interact with society accordingly at large. We mould our children according to what they see us do and portray.\nRoles may require us to be only a part of ourselves and may require us to be something that we are not. The more we do things the more they become a habit and the more we think in the same way, the more these patterns of thought and behaviour become our identity. The roles we play in life give us strength and confidence. The sad part and truth is that most of us derive our identities from these roles. When you derive your identity from these external roles, our true identity gets forgotten and we believe the lie that we are our roles.\nKnowing your true identity is of paramount importance in achieving your personal development goals. Your true identity comes from deep within you. Your thoughts and your reaction towards the external world are a true reflection of your identity. I have come to know also that our identity can be seen in our daily roles. Practically speaking we have to play roles to operate effectively in society. It is a requirement that cannot be done away with. But these can dominate our sense of identity to the extent that we feel lost when all is said and done.\nThe solution is to find a way of playing roles without them becoming our identity. Identity is from within. We need to find an internal source for our identity and not rely on the external one. That is why it is very important that we keep reminding yourself of who you think you are. When we have found our internal source of identity we can then pick up our roles and play them with every confidence. Getting back in touch with who and what you really are, that is, finding yourself, opens up the possibility to play roles and move in and out of them with freedom when you like.\nYourself awareness\nSelf-awareness is critical to personal development depending upon your definition. You cannot definitely know or start to think about who you are before being aware of yourself. The only way you can be aware of yourself is to take an observatory stance. A state of pure awareness enables you to step outside yourself as it were and to take a look at yourself from the outside as an independent observe, much like a coach does in a coaching relationship. Being outside of yourself system gives you more objectivity to make better judgement of your personality. This then gives you a better understanding on thinking about who you think you are.\nPersonal awareness is gained by a shift in perspective of observing your thoughts, actions and feelings; observing the world around you, the relationships and people, and giving yourself a break from your self. Get feedback from these observations and write them down. The advantage of self-observation is that you are always with yourself and please endeavour to form an honest opinion about your observations remove feelings and emotions. One of the best ways to observe yourself is when you are playing your daily roles. I have tended to believe that role playing is for the gallery and does not allow us to be our actual selves. Self-awareness will greatly help you know exactly what you think you are.\nIt may sound funny but many of us have no sense of self-awareness. We just go about doing business as \u201cusual\u201d. Personal success and development requires that we change from our business as usual kind of a person to being self-aware and more positive thinking. If you have a positive attitude towards life most likely you are also living consciously. If you are living consciously you will agree with me that, things do not just happen by chance or lack. You cause things to happen by your thoughts.\nUnderstanding your self\nWith increased self-awareness comes increased self-knowledge. I have never come across a successful person with very little or no knowledge about themselves. Personal development requires that you are in control of your being and to achieve this you need to understand yourself. How can you handle success if you do not have a clue about yourself? How can you even start to think about who you are before you even have an understanding of yourself? Self-knowledge leads to self-understanding and this gives us choice and freedom.\nIt offers up the possibility to live spontaneously, in the moment, creatively applying your accumulated wisdom to the situation before you, free of internal conflicts and half measures. Self-understanding will therefore, greatly help you in knowing who you think you are. Take a break and ask your self how much you know and understand yourself. If you have no clue about knowing yourself I suggest you become a student of yourself. Start by appreciating your various roles and have a sense of self awareness. What you are merely doing is aiding your knowledge and thoughts on who you think you are? Personal success therefore, requires that you have an understanding of yourself.\nBecoming aware of your own internal processes and in turn gaining knowledge and understanding, naturally leads on to self-acceptance. This is when you now know who you think you are. Accepting yourself leads to greater self-awareness as there is no need to hide parts of yourself, as acceptance is pretty much the opposite of being judgemental. We all have experienced some bad patch of some sort in our lives and some of them we would rather not talk about them. The amazing thing is that the route to personal change and development is by rejecting, modifying or suppressing them. But instead it is in the accepting them that we develop and move on.\nSelf-acceptance is key element in knowing who we think we are. The only way you can advance in personal development is by accepting whatever, happened to you in the past and learning from them and thereby, moving on. Well I understand that some of us may have experienced life threatening situations but it is more important to accept the reality and move on. It would be wrong to completely deny whatever, happened. But, to actually accept it; get professional counsel if necessary and move on. We hide in these unfortunate circumstances due to fear. In my life I have come to realise that the number one enemy to success is fear. Get fear out of the way and you will have the courage to do.\nSelf-acceptance can be actualised by knowing what you think you are. There is no success with knowing what you think you are and setting goals and writing down plans to actualise your thoughts. When self-acceptance is attained there is even more freedom and peace of mind. You see in life we as human beings accept people by our own standards instead of accepting them as they are. Most of the time people want to be associated with the affluent in society. Those that we know can give us favours. When you achieve self-acceptance you will accept people for what they are and not who they are.\nWe all perform roles in life, yet we are not our roles and if we identify too closely with them we may feel safe but only temporarily. The authentic self is the true self underneath all the conditioning that has been acquired through life\u2019s experience. You are what you are and that is ok. You are an original and there is only one you. Knowledge of ourselves is a pre-requisite for real lasting change and for a satisfied contentment with life. Ultimately being in touch with yourself means that; you will be aware of and be able to express your true feelings in an appropriate way as a responsible adult; you will have high levels of self-awareness and you will accept yourself for who you are. I hope and trust that this article has helped you in knowing and that you now can apply it accordingly. \u201cNurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never any higher than you think\u201d ~ Benjamin Desraeli. Remember to always \u201cstandout tall and be counted\u201d.\nCategoriesPersonal Development, Self Growth Tagsself awareness, self-acceptance, think, thinking\nPrevious PostPrevious The 6 Qualities of Self-Development\nNext PostNext How to increase your emotional self-awareness",

Marquette\u2019s run featured consecutive steals and driving lay ups by Todd Mayo that got the crowd into the game and rattled Pittsburgh (11-7, 0-5).\nDarius Johnson-Odom scored 18 points and Jae Crowder added 15 for Marquette in the win.\nAshton Gibbs broke out offensively with a career-high 29 points and Nasir Robinson added 10 for Pittsburgh, which remained the only winless team in the Big East.\nIt was a game that Pitt can build off of after an embarrassing loss to Rutgers earlier in the week. In the loss to Rutgers, Pitt shot 12 of 57 from the field and it was their lowest point total in 38 years and lowest at home in 61 years.\n\u201cI liked how we played,\u201d Pitt head coach Jamie Dixon said. \u201cThe second half, we had some challenges there given the foul situation and I think that really caught up to us. We did some really good things. I\u2019m proud of how hard we played but we didn\u2019t get it done.\u201d\nPittsburgh hit just 20 of 46 shots in the game, including only 6 of 20 from 3-point range.\n(Information provided by Brian Kelly and Associated Press)",

        "raw_content": "On My Mind\u2026Baffled About Supreme Court\u2019s Denial of Justifiable Need Case\nPosted on May 6, 2014 by Jennifer Jean Miller in On My Mind...What Do You Think? // 0 Comments\nJohn Drake, Plaintiff in a suit that made its way to the Supreme Court and was denied. Photo courtesy of John Drake.\nWell, as I\u2019d mentioned on my previous post about this topic, I had an uneasy feeling about the Supreme Court Justices making a decision in favor of Drake v. Jerejian, the case filed by plaintiffs, including John Drake of Fredon Township in Sussex County, for the right to carry in the State of New Jersey\u2026because they deferred the decision date twice.\nWell, my gut was right because the Supreme Court in their conference denied hearing the appeal for the Drake v. Jerejian case yesterday and did so without opinion and explanation.\nFor those checking in, John Drake was one of several parties who asked for permits to carry because, in his case, he owns an ATM business and has had issues with potential aggressors in the line of his work. John is versed in gun safety, having been a hunter since childhood and to boot, is well respected in our community. And the other plaintiffs had valid reasons to request permits and were of high character, but were denied because of New Jersey\u2019s \u201cjustifiable need\u201d clause. As I vented in my previous post, John as well as the others have very \u201cjustifiable\u201d needs to carry\u2026and as others have stated in discussions with them since, why should this clause exist when our Constitution offers citizens the right to bear arms?\nA breakdown of the case\u2019s voyage since 2013 is here.\nMonday morning on the Supreme Court of the United States Blog (SCOTUS), they reported at 9:31 a.m. \u201cThey have denied cert. in Drake v. Jerejian.\u201d\nCommenters on the blog seemed pretty stunned and angry\u2026and I don\u2019t blame them. Essentially, the case has stopped in its tracks, although it is one that backs our Second Amendment Rights.\nTo me this is troubling that they won\u2019t hear it and are mum as to why it\u2019s been kicked out, considering 19 states also jumped on board as well as other organizations. Let\u2019s not even begin with its infringement against the Second Amendment. However, the Supreme Court yesterday gave the green light to prayer before government meetings too and that it did not violate the First Amendment so go figure\u2026\nNow, I am not saying the prayer decision was wrong in fact, I advocate this for many reasons\u2026I commend them for making this decision\u2026yet, how can they decide prayer in a government meeting is not clashing with the First Amendment yet an important Second Amendment decision, they totally not hear at all?\nThe Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs commented on the topic yesterday that, \u201cWhile there are several other right to carry challenges moving toward the U.S. Supreme Court from other parts of the country, today\u2019s action is both troubling and disappointing. The Drake case was uniquely poised for Supreme Court, not only because New Jersey\u2019s carry law is one of the most extreme in the nation, but because there are now many conflicting decisions on right to carry in the lower courts throughout the country which can only be resolved by Supreme Court action. Given the lack of explanation from the Supreme Court, there will be much speculation about the significance of today\u2019s action.\nOn My Mind: This decision stinks\u2026period\u2026enough said\u2026when I have more info about this topic, will share in follow up.\nStay on the scene with NJInsideScene and click here to follow us on Facebook!",

        "raw_content": "\u201cEvery single person in this production is making a \u2018role debut,\u2019 from myself to the principals\u2019 roles, to the chorus, the conductor, orchestra, and crew. It\u2019s incredibly liberating to approach it fresh, but it\u2019s also daunting in the sheer number of decisions that must be made each day!\u201d \u2013 Thaddeus Strassberger\nANNANDALE-ON-HUDSON, N.Y. \u2013 With a distinguished history of presenting important but rarely-performed works in remarkable productions, Bard SummerScape is producing one of music history\u2019s most challenging operas: Giacomo Meyerbeer\u2019s 1836 masterpiece, Les Huguenots, opening on July 31 for four performances. Leon Botstein conducts soloists, the Bard Festival Chorus, and the American Symphony Orchestra in Bard\u2019s beautiful Sosnoff Theater. The grandly scaled opera \u2013 to be staged almost entirely intact \u2013 addresses religious extremism in an enhanced historical setting, and is produced within the framework of \u201cWagner and His World,\u201d which is the focus of the 20th annual Bard Music Festival. The artistic team for Les Huguenots combines the talents of American director Thaddeus Strassberger with those of Spanish designer, photographer, and filmmaker Eugenio Recuenco, with Mattie Ullrich\u2019s costumes and Aaron Black\u2019s lighting. The cast features Erin Morley as Marguerite de Valois; Alexandra Deshorties as Valentine; Marie Lenormand as Urbain; Michael Spyres as Raoul; Andrew Schroeder as Nevers; Peter Volpe as Marcel; and John Marcus Bindel as Saint-Bris.\nBard SummerScape got off to a successful start with the opening night of Dance \u2013 a restoration of the 1979 collaboration between choreographer Lucinda Childs, filmmaker Sol LeWitt, and composer Philip Glass. It received winning notices, including that by Gia Kourlas in the New York Times. Kourlas enthusiastically extends credit for the superlative production beyond these three creators, with a nod to the \u201cunofficial fourth collaborator\u201d of the project: Frank Gehry, the architect of Bard\u2019s Fisher Center for the Performing Arts, whose design of the center\u2019s Sosnoff Theater \u201cprovides a scintillating frame.\u201d\nSince its inception in 2003, with the opening of its new Fisher Center for the Performing Arts, Bard SummerScape has presented a remarkable array of seldom-produced operas: Blitzstein\u2019s Regina ; Jan\u00e1cek\u2019s Osud; Shostakovich\u2019s The Nose; Schumann\u2019s Genoveva; Szymanowski\u2019s King Roger; and Zemlinsky\u2019s Florentine Tragedy and The Dwarf.",

        "raw_content": ": : : HomePageNewsPremier Lai: Economy top priority for government\nPremier Lai: Economy top priority for government\nPremier Lai Ching-te on Monday said the economy is the nation\u2019s highest priority, which is why the government has been pushing to raise salary levels, cut taxes and regulations, make tax burdens more reasonable, and create a friendly environment for investors and businesses.\nSpeaking at a dinner function hosted by the Taipei-based Chinese National Association of Industry and Commerce, the premier said he has been convening a series of meetings on government initiatives to boost investment in Taiwan. To address issues hindering investment, the government has rewritten laws and introduced new policies that will be monitored and reviewed on a rolling basis so that companies can invest in Taiwan with greater confidence.\nTo increase Taiwan\u2019s talent pool, for instance, the government changed the Act for the Recruitment and Employment of Foreign Professionals to allow companies to recruit professionals from abroad, the premier said. Companies can also use favorable tax provisions in the Statute for Industrial Innovation to keep skilled workers in country. In addition, key elements of a new economic immigration bill are being mapped out to permit overseas Taiwanese students completing their studies in Taiwan to remain for work, and blue-collar workers who have amassed considerable mid-level technical experience in Taiwan will also be allowed to remain for employment and eventually acquire residency rights.\nRegarding energy issues and President Tsai Ing-wen\u2019s goal of phasing out nuclear power by 2025, the government is confident that Taiwan will be able to produce 12 to 15 percent of all energy from renewable sources by that time, Premier Lai said. To replace nuclear power with renewable energy, Taiwan is currently installing wind and solar power generation facilities while vigorously promoting small hydropower and geothermal power generation.\nMembership for Taiwan in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) is another important policy goal, the premier continued. Tariffs often create operational difficulties for companies investing in Taiwan, so Taiwan must overcome those obstacles and integrate into the regional economy to entice companies to stay long term. The government is presently reviewing and amending Taiwan\u2019s laws and policies to comply with the requirements of the CPTPP.\nAs for cross-strait relations, Premier Lai said his personal feeling is that the two sides should set aside differences to find common ground, and replace confrontation and obstruction with reconciliation and dialogue. Engaging in conversation will enhance understanding, appreciation, tolerance and reconciliation on both sides and further lead to peaceful development of relations.",

More favorable price/product mix across the portfolio, as well as margin expansion propelled by our global optimization efforts all contributed to increases in profitability,\" said Ilene Gordon, chairman, president and chief executive officer. \"North America, Asia Pacific and EMEA achieved record operating income for the quarter while operating income was lower in South America as that region faced macroeconomic and foreign-exchange headwinds.\n\"As we continue to execute our strategic blueprint, we expect a strong year and are raising our anticipated 2016 adjusted EPS, now to a range from $6.70 to $6.90,\" Gordon added.\nAcquisition/Integration Costs $0.07 - $0.13 $0.01\nImpairment/Restructuring Costs - $0.14 $0.09 $0.14\nAdjusted EPS* $1.53 $1.73 $2.83 $3.51\nEstimated factors affecting change in EPS\nMargin 0.36 0.90\nVolume (0.06) (0.03)\nForeign exchange (0.02) (0.16)\nOther income/(expense) 0.02 -\nShares outstanding (0.03) (0.05)\nTax rate (0.04) 0.06\nTotal non-operating items (0.10) (0.03)\nTotal items affecting EPS 0.20 0.68\nAt June 30, 2016, total debt and cash and short-term investments were $1.83 billion and $507 million, respectively, versus $1.84 billion and $440 million, respectively, at December 31, 2015. Cash and short-term investments were higher primarily driven by higher net income.\nDuring the second quarter of 2016, net financing costs were $19 million, or $2 million higher than the year-ago period, largely due to foreign exchange losses.\nFor the second quarter of 2016, reported and adjusted effective tax rates were 32.8 percent and 32.0 percent, respectively, compared to reported and adjusted effective tax rates of 30.3 percent and 30.5 percent, respectively, in the year-ago period. The higher rates were primarily driven by greater earnings in higher-tax jurisdictions as well as the devaluation of the Mexican peso during the quarter partially offset by the adoption of a new accounting standard for share-based compensation.\nCapital expenditures were $125 million for the first half of 2016, approximately in line with the year-ago period.\nSecond quarter 1,449 -69 -9 84 1,455 0%\nYear-to-date 2,779 -183 46 173 2,815 1%\nSecond quarter net sales were up slightly as a result of improved price/mix in North America and South America and a more favorable product mix in both specialty and core ingredients. These factors were offset predominantly by changes in foreign currency exchange rates and organic volume declines attributable to the sale of our Port Colborne, Canada, facility and macroeconomic headwinds in South America.\nYear-to-date net sales were up as a result of improved price/mix in North America and South America, a more favorable product mix in both specialty and core ingredients, as well as acquisition-related growth. These factors were mostly offset by changes in foreign currency exchange rates and organic volume declines attributable to the sale of our Port Colborne, Canada, facility and macroeconomic headwinds in South America.\nSecond quarter reported and adjusted operating income were $198 million and $211 million, respectively. These were 15 percent and 17 percent increases, respectively, compared to $173 million of reported operating income and $180 million of adjusted operating income in the second quarter of 2015. The increases in operating income were primarily due to better price/product mix in both our specialty and core ingredients and reduced costs resulting from our global optimization efforts. These positives were partially offset by the negative effect of foreign exchange and macroeconomic headwinds in South America.\nYear-to-date 2016 reported and adjusted operating income were $398 million and $412 million, respectively. These were 28 percent and 22 percent increases, respectively, compared to $312 million of year-to-date 2015 reported operating income and $337 million of year-to-date 2015 adjusted operating income. The increases in operating income were primarily due to a better price/product mix in both our specialty and core ingredients, acquisition-related growth, and reduced costs resulting from our global optimization efforts. These positives were partially offset by the negative effect of foreign exchange and macroeconomic headwinds in South America.\nSecond quarter reported operating income was lower than adjusted operating income by $13 million. Of this difference, $8 million is related to employee-related severance and other costs associated with the execution of global IT outsourcing contracts; $3 million of employee-related severance costs associated with South American restructuring; and $2 million in charges related to the finalization of the transaction related to the prior year net gain on the sale of our plant in Port Colborne, Canada.\nSecond quarter 869 -5 -4 34 895 3%\nYear-to-date 1,623 -14 52 74 1,735 7%\nSecond quarter operating income increased from $127 million to $160 million. Better price/product mix in both our specialty and core ingredients, cost synergies related to the Penford acquisition, as well as operational efficiencies driven by our network optimization efforts accounted for the increase.\nYear-to-date operating income increased from $229 million to $309 million. Higher acquisition-related volumes, a better price/product mix in both our specialty and core ingredients, cost synergies related to the Penford acquisition, as well as operational efficiencies driven by our network optimization efforts accounted for the increase.\nSecond quarter 250 -54 -14 59 240 -4%\nYear-to-date 508 -142 -29 117 455 -10%\nOperating income in the second quarter was $14 million, down $6 million from a year ago. The decline was largely a result of lower volumes in Southern Cone driven by macroeconomic headwinds, and higher costs for corn and other inputs. This was partially mitigated by improved price/mix.\nYear-to-date operating income was $32 million, down $13 million from a year ago. The decline was largely a result of the negative effect of foreign exchange, lower volumes in Southern Cone driven by macroeconomic headwinds, and higher costs for corn and other inputs. This was partially mitigated by improved price/mix.\nSecond quarter 192 -8 4 -8 180 -6%\nYear-to-date 379 -20 4 -14 349 -8%\nSecond quarter operating income was $30 million, up $2 million from a year ago. Year-to-date operating income was $58 million, up $4 million from a year ago. In both periods, volume growth and margin expansion were partially offset by foreign exchange impacts.\nSecond quarter 138 -3 6 -1 140 2%\nYear-to-date 269 -8 19 -5 276 2%\nSecond quarter operating income was $29 million, up $6 million from a year ago. Year-to-date operating income was $55 million, up $10 million from a year ago. In both periods, volume growth and margin expansion more than offset foreign exchange impacts.\n2016 adjusted EPS, excluding acquisition-related, integration, and restructuring costs as well as any potential impairment costs, is expected to be in the range of $6.70 to $6.90 compared to adjusted EPS of $5.88 in 2015. The full-year guidance assumes, compared to last year: overall improvement in North America, Asia Pacific and EMEA, and South America down given the macroeconomic environment; an effective tax rate of approximately 30-32 percent; and continued trade up in our portfolio, including higher-value specialty ingredients, leading to margin expansion.\nActual results and developments may differ materially from the expectations expressed in or implied by these statements, based on various factors, including the effects of global economic conditions, including, particularly, continuation or worsening of the current economic, currency and political conditions in South America and economic conditions in Europe, and their impact on our sales volumes and pricing of our products, our ability to collect our receivables from customers and our ability to raise funds at reasonable rates; fluctuations in worldwide markets for corn and other commodities, and the associated risks of hedging against such fluctuations; fluctuations in the markets and prices for our co-products, particularly corn oil; fluctuations in aggregate industry supply and market demand; the behavior of financial markets, including foreign currency fluctuations and fluctuations in interest and exchange rates; volatility and turmoil in the capital markets; the commercial and consumer credit environment; general political, economic, business, market and weather conditions in the various geographic regions and countries in which we buy our raw materials or manufacture or sell our products; future financial performance of major industries which we serve, including, without limitation, the food and beverage, paper, corrugated, and brewing industries; energy costs and availability, freight and shipping costs, and changes in regulatory controls regarding quotas, tariffs, duties, taxes and income tax rates; operating difficulties; availability of raw materials, including potato starch, tapioca and the specific varieties of corn upon which our products are based; energy issues in Pakistan; boiler reliability; our ability to effectively integrate and operate acquired businesses; our ability to achieve budgets and to realize expected synergies; our ability to complete planned maintenance and investment projects successfully and on budget; labor disputes; genetic and biotechnology issues; changing consumption preferences including those relating to high fructose corn syrup; increased competitive and/or customer pressure in the corn-refining industry; and the outbreak or continuation of serious communicable disease or hostilities including acts of terrorism.",

        "raw_content": "Everyone has their Christmas traditions in terms of what films they watch, and mine is like half of America's: watching a Charlie Brown Christmas (with popcorn and hot chocolate). Given how popular it is, I'm always amused to read how the network executives were originally horrified by the show, with jazz score, lack of laugh tracks, and - oh, yes - Scripture reading. (Execs would still be horrified today by that last.) But of course, those are the very reasons it became so beloved. And the message against commercialism is only more relevant today.\nNot as SAD\nSorry for the lack of posts lately. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving - I enjoyed the vacation days and had a very nice holiday eating good food (everything from turkey to ceviche) and watching football (the biggest reason I love fall). Aside from that, however, I have been more listless and down for several weeks, struggling, as I customarily do, to adjust to the time change. For some reason it's just difficult to adjust to it getting dark before five, and my situation at work, while pleasant enough in terms of the actual work I am doing, has been less than ideal lately in terms of interaction with other associates and team members (because, in short, there aren't any I work with here). So I have resolved, in the last few days since I realized what was going on (I never remember that I get affected by S.A.D. until a few weeks after I've gotten mildly depressed), to make a positive change to regain focus and energy - not sleeping in, exercising more, working harder, being more social with family and friends outside of work, and finally looking forward to the big change coming up in a few more weeks: we are moving to Texas in January! So, Irishlaw will be soon be a Domer in Dallas, not D.C. I'm excited about the professional opportunities this transfer will create for me at the firm - to work more directly with other practice group members - and I think for the long term, it should be a great place to settle down and start a family.\nStill have posts to write on football as we move into bowl season (don't you love how all the media still manage to find ways to mention the Irish even when we're so far down the polls, we might qualify for a ranking in I-AA?) and December in the NFL. But first, have to keep my resolution to be more focused at work ... by heading there now. Ciao!",

        "title": "The job role of the Formula 1 designer - Your startline for a career in motorsport",
        "raw_content": "My Work in Motorsport blog is a collection of tips and advice for people who want to get a job in Formula 1 or other motorsports. I have worked in motor racing for almost my whole career and want to help other people onto the ladder.\nIn this post I try to describe what a typical Formula 1 design engineer\u2019s job role is and important tips on what someone needs to do to become an F1 designer.\nThe Formula 1 team members that you see on television are generally mechanics, race engineers, strategists and team managers. This small group of individuals make up only a small fraction of the staff of a Formula 1 team. A modern F1 team\u2019s core business is not actually being a race team at all, they are actually focussed on the design and manufacture of racing cars. A modern Formula 1 car is made up of completely bespoke parts, designed with only that one car in mind and the design and technology that goes into the cars is the greatest asset and secret of the teams. The team of design engineers behind the F1 car\u2019s concept and detail design are a highly prized set of experts who are rarely seen at races but form one of, if not the most critical part of the team\u2019s function.\nEach team will have its own \u201cDesign Office\u201d comprising of somewhere between 25 and 150 designers. These designers between them will produce the detail drawings of each and every individual component that goes to make up the complete car assembly. Each part is specified in precise detail, the material it is made from, the manufacturing process and any heat treatment processes, it requires. The detail drawing will show each dimension and measurement of the parts, and important sizes are toleranced a handful of microns (1/1000th of a millimetre). Very few parts of a modern Formula 1 car are \u2018bought in\u2019 these days, other than nuts and bolts, and so each part of the car must be individually designed and made to order. This is typically of the order of 10,000 parts for each vehicle \u2013 a lot of work !!\nTraditionally this job was done on a drawing board in pencil but now almost exclusively this task is carried out on a computer aided design (CAD) software such as CATIA, ProEngineer or Unigraphics. Each part is modelled in a 3D environment which can also be used to build up virtual assemblies of mechanisms or even the whole car if the computing power allows. Many of the advances in aerodynamics in recent years have only been possible because of the ability to package essential mechanical components of the car very tightly together. The 3D CAD systems make this much easier than using a 2D drawing board and so car designs have become much more advanced since their use was introduced. Despite this, Adrian Newey, arguably the most successful F1 designer of all time still uses a drawing board in order to visualise his aerodynamic designs and so the old art form still remains. The CAD system is very capable and complex but it does not make the user a good designer and a fundamental understanding of design and draughting is still essential in this role. It is however a very creative job and a fantastic reward to see a design that you have dreamt up and worked through to a finished product racing in Formula 1. There are not many careers where you work is shown on television every 2 weeks !\nMost new designers these days are degree educated in mechanical engineering or similar disciplines. A good grounding in engineering fundamentals allows the designer to make judgements on the size and strength of the components and the suitability of a material for a particular purpose. There are still many F1 designers who do not have degrees however and these are often some of the most gifted and capable as they may have many years of previous experience in manufacturing or assembly of parts. Someone who shows a flair for ideas and understanding of mechanisms on the shop floor can still aim to be a designer if they so wish. Whilst a good education is a valuable asset, many of the skills required to be a successful Formula 1 design engineer cannot be learnt from a lecture or text book and it takes a long time to gain the necessary experience. Design is essentially an art form.\nThe best designers are the prize possessions of the teams and senior personnel can command very high salaries indeed, perhaps more than \u00a3100,000 per annum in many cases. Starting salaries are however much, much lower and it is not untypical for graduates or placements to be very poorly paid. For those who can prove themselves in the design office environment, this will quickly change but competition for those chances is very high and so the teams are not obliged to pay well. To get a job as a junior design engineer is very difficult and getting the right CV, education or experience is critical to making your application stand out from the masses. Contrary to what many people believe, it is not necessary to understand the inner workings of a seamless-shift gearbox or to be able to recite the theory behind double diffusers in order to get a job in F1. Far more important than that is the ability to work hard, to show initiative and to apply logical thought to a problem. Demonstrating these personal skills will be key to your application and CV and involving yourself in activities where you can develop and practice these skills is critical before you apply to one of the teams.\nIn future posts I hope to expand more on what kinds of skills F1 team managers and senior engineers are looking for from their applicants and what the do\u2019s and dont\u2019s of a good job application are. In my next post I will run through the role of the F1 race engineer and what skills this very different job requires. Feel free to comment or ask questions about anything I have written here or any other job roles you wish to me to describe. Its a very busy time for us with the new car about to launch but hopefully I will get some spare time to write. The new season is almost upon us which always one of the best times of the year and some good inspiration to follow those dreams of your F1 career !\nF1 Testing \u2013 Working Behind the Scenes My Work in Motorsport blog is a collection of tips...\n\u27f5How to get a job in a Formula 1 team\nEngineer Silly Season\u27f6\n3 thoughts on \u201cThe job role of the Formula 1 designer\u201d\nPingback: First day of school | Working in F1 & Motorsport\nPingback: Do I need a degree to Work in F1? | Get a Job in F1\nNo problem!

        "title": "How I Make Time to Read | Jovers",
        "raw_content": "My goal this year is to read 52 books, equating to one book a week. I have been asked by Jamie and a couple of others how I find so much time to read between school, working, and wedding planning, so I thought I would share with you how I make time for something that I love to do when I don\u2019t always have a lot of time.\nAt any given time, I am reading at least three books. I know that a lot of people hate doing that, but I\u2019ve found that if I want to reach my goal, I have to read in at least three forms: an eBook on my iPhone or Kindle, an audiobook, and a hardback or paperback book.\nI will tell you any day that I much prefer a physical copy of a book than an eBook, but you can\u2019t beat the convenience. It\u2019s not very easy to carry an 800 page novel around with me. I also don\u2019t always know that I will have some downtime and have time to read. So if I find myself waiting on people or just out in public and have some free time with not much else to do, I pull out my phone and read.\nI also read on my lunch break at work. I get an hour break at the job I currently have, which is a good amount of time to read a chunk of any book! It\u2019s convenient for me to just pull my eBook up on my phone and start reading.\nI usually read classics in eBook form. I don\u2019t like paying money for eBooks \u2013 I can\u2019t justify the fact that I\u2019m not getting something I can hold in my hands and display on my bookshelf \u2013 and I can always find classics for free to download from the Kindle store or from public domain websites. I also use my public library\u2019s eBooks. I can check them out without even having to go to the library. It works like checking out a regular book: you get two to three weeks to finish it and digitally return it. I love it because I get sick of classics sometimes and want to read something newer but don\u2019t want to pay for it either. Win win!\nI\u2019ll admit, I used to think audiobooks were incredibly lame. I hated having someone read to me when I was fully capable of reading at my own pace on my own. I really got into audiobooks a few summers ago when I had a job that allowed me to listen to music while I worked. I got tired of listening to my music and listening to the radio and I knew that Andrew\u2019s mom really liked audiobooks. So I thought I would give it a try.\nAnd I loved it. So now, I listen to audiobooks when I exercise, when I\u2019m in the car driving, or when I\u2019m getting ready in the morning. Half the time I can\u2019t settle on a radio station in the car, so I\u2019ll just plug my phone in and listen to my audiobook. I usually finish an audiobook every three weeks.\nI get my audiobooks from my public library as well. They\u2019re free (!!) and usually there isn\u2019t a long hold time for those either since they are not as popular as eBooks or hard copies. I listen to classics frequently if I can\u2019t find something that sounds interesting without having to wait for it. LibriVox is a great place to download classics from as well.\nFor my eBooks and my audiobooks, I use an app called OverDrive. That is the platform I use to check out eBooks/audiobooks from the library and it\u2019s very easy to use. Your public library may use a different platform or app. I also use the Kindle App on my iPhone to read eBooks that I\u2019ve downloaded from Amazon.\nMy favorite way to read, snuggled up under the covers with just the light before I go to bed. I don\u2019t really have a schedule of when I read at home because my schedule is so crazy, but I try to read at least for half an hour before I go to bed. In reality, I probably only do that a couple of times a week. So there are some nights I will read for three or four hours and others just fifteen minutes or not at all. When I have a night that I know I don\u2019t have any plans or anything to do, I always set a portion of that time aside to read. If I plan in my head that I\u2019m going to read tonight, I find it much easier to do so.\nSo this is how I find time to read and to read often. If I stay on course, I should read over 52 books this year. You can see what books I\u2019ve read so far here. Do you read a lot? If so, what do you do to find time to read in your busy life?\n6 thoughts on \u201cHow I Make Time to Read\u201d\nGood luck on your goal!~ I want to get back into reading hard back/soft back books again. I mostly read historical non fiction books like for instance, I\u2019m reading a great book about Joan of Arc and her role in the retaking of the kingdom of France for the dauphin. Yeah, nerdy things\nI am waaaaay behind my reading challenge. I had a reading lull back when I was super stressed with work and I haven\u2019t picked up where I left off.\nI\u2019ve always wanted to try audiobooks. I actually have a friend who listens to audiobooks during his commute to and from work but I find that I have a very short attention span that I feel like I\u2019ll only end up having to repeat stuff over and over again because I stopped focusing on listening, but who knows.\nI wish we also had a very accessible public library. Here, libraries usually mean old books, archives, and journals.\nReading, time to read? Does reading blogs count? You sure got an efficient way to read all your books, I should take you as my example I get most of the time tired or I have to do other things so I get less time to read. Though in my vacation I was able to read some magazines and one book\nI really loved this post and how you fit all of your reading in! I still haven\u2019t gotten into eBooks, maybe one day, but I still like reading myself. I also took a while to warm up to the idea of eBooks, but I love them now.\nHey! Thank you for the shout-out, and for answering my question. I really appreciate it. I hope that you reach your goal. Goals are nice to have aren\u2019t they?\nI\u2019m not sure if I will ever get into e-books. I honestly spend a little too much time on the internet and people always tell me why don\u2019t you read e-books? Well, I don\u2019t want to hurt my eyes any further then they\u2019re already are. If that makes any sense? I have given one e-book a try as I had gotten a free copy from Elizabeth Wyke ( Indie author). It\u2019s going to be awhile before I can fully pull myself into e-books. Though, I don\u2019t think I would mind reading them.\nLike you, I prefer to read hard copies. 1.) You won\u2019t get a virus on them, 2.) You won\u2019t lose them and 3.) They don\u2019t have to be charged like a phone or kindle does. I just love them, plus like you said you can put it on your shelves for all to see. What kind of classics do you read?\nI read any classic that I can pretty much get my hands on! I just finished Around the World in 80 Days by Jules Verne, and right now I am reading Moby Dick and A Tale of Two Cities. I also read The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood earlier this year. So I\u2019ve not read a whole lot this year of classics, but I\u2019m working on it!",

        "title": "My Favorite Books of 2016 | Jovers",
        "raw_content": "I know that there are still a few weeks left in December so 2016 isn\u2019t quite over yet, but I wanted to share some of my favorite books that I\u2019ve read this year (so far!). I\u2019m not sure if I\u2019ll quite reach my goal of reading 52 books this year \u2013 I\u2019m sitting at 47 so I have 5 more to read \u2013 but I\u2019m still proud of how much I have read and there were some really good ones this year!\nI don\u2019t read a lot of nonfiction books; I usually stick to my classic literature, fantasy, with some young adult thrown in there, but this book really caught my eye. Also I love Aziz Ansari.\nModern Romance studies romance in today\u2019s society: how it\u2019s changed over time, how it impacts people, and how people date, etc. The topic is interesting enough on its own, but Aziz makes it even more interesting by punctuating it with funny anecdotes and humor. Additionally, Aziz is so effortlessly funny that you forget that you\u2019re even reading a nonfiction research study. As an added bonus, if you listen to the audiobook version (which I did), he makes fun of you for being lazy and having him read to you and then tries to explain the graphs that are included in the paper copy of the book, which is also hilarious.\nModern Romance isn\u2019t a book just for those that are in the dating pool; everyone can relate to it. Our society\u2019s modern romance affects everyone, whether you consider yourself available or not. I would add this book to your must-read list.\nYou may remember my very long, glowing review of The Martian back in the spring. My opinion hasn\u2019t changed since then, except that I\u2019ve seen the movie and I\u2019m telling you, if you\u2019ve only seen the movie and haven\u2019t read the book, you are missing out.\nShort synopsis: Mark Whatney is stranded on Mars after he and his crew are hit by a storm and they presume him dead. He has no way to communicate to earth and has to fight to survive in a harsh and unwelcoming Martian environment.\nI\u2019m not even that interested in science, but I will say that I loved this book. Mark\u2019s humor is truly what made this book the masterpiece that it is. While there were times that I actually laughed out loud, his humor is so subtle and dry. The details that Weir puts into this novel will have you believing that he is an actual astronaut, because how else would he know this stuff? Let me recap some of my favorite quotes from the book:\nAnd it\u2019s not like these quotes are few and far in between, The Martian is full of these little gems.\nEven if you\u2019re not interested in science, this is a humorous read despite the adversity that Mark faces in the harsh climate of Mars as he fights to find a way back home.\nOve is a cranky, crotchety old man. He is forced into an early retirement after 30 years at the same job, and after the death of his wife, his life now revolves around making sure everyone follows the rules and regulations of his housing complex. Things are black and white for Ove, and he can be quite the curmudgeon if things aren\u2019t done exactly as he wants them to be done.\nThe story starts when the new neighbors next door accidentally run over Ove\u2019s mailbox. An unexpected, and sometime unwanted relationship forms between Ove and Parvenah, the Iranian pregnant woman from next door. As the story progresses, you learn more about Ove\u2019s life and how he came to be he who he is.\nThis is the most heartwarming novel I\u2019ve read in a long time. I found Ove so relatable \u2013 I can be quite the grouchy pants in my head, so reading his thoughts and comments about other people make you laugh even if you want to hate him. You can\u2019t, you have to love him. It\u2019s comical and sad, I laughed and I cried. It\u2019s an easy read that you could finish in a day and one that I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll want to re-read in the future!\nThe Nightingale tells the story of two sisters during WWII France, one an ambitious, rebellious girl named Isabelle who is trying to find meaning in life after she\u2019s been kicked out of countless schools and is refused by a father who doesn\u2019t want her; and the other, a responsible mother and wife named Vianne who keeps a naive and innocent perspective of life.\nBut everything changes when the Nazis invade France. Vianne\u2019s husband leaves for war and she must house a Nazi when the Germans occupy their small country town. Isabelle meets a man who informs her of the French who are resisting and fighting back, and she joins the Resistance. The Nightingale displays the everyday horror of war, the selfless and brave acts people make, and the war that rarely gets talked about: the women\u2019s war. These sisters impacted the lives of the people around them, in ways big and small, all while just trying to survive.\nI read this slowly, savoring every page, each with new facts that I never knew and situations I could never imagine. Hannah had me feeling everything the characters were experiencing: I laughed with them, I feared with them, I cried with them. The story itself was rich and genuine, at times blurring the lines between right and wrong, and good and evil.\nThe Nightingale is powerful and poignant. A book that stays with you long after you\u2019ve finished reading, it\u2019s hands-down the best book that I\u2019ve read in 2016.\nThese are my favorite books from 2016! What are your favorites you read this year?\nMy sister read A Modern Romance and said it was hilarious. I added it to my Goodreads. Nightingale sounds good!! I added it to my list too!\nMy favorite books this year are \u201cSomething in Between\u201d and \u201cScythe\u201d.\nI commented on your last post. What is Andrew\u2019s nurse specialty?\nHi Laurie, sorry it took me so long to reply. He doesn\u2019t have a specialty in his education, but he works on a transplant and surgical overflow floor. He eventually wants to work in the emergency department, but there\u2019s no openings currently.\nI will have to look those up! Thanks for sharing!\nYou have a few more books to go!! I\u2019m sure you can knock them all out in the next 12 days or so ;).\nIt\u2019s interesting to see how romance changed over the decades. I\u2019m sure people these days don\u2019t act the same as others did in the 80\u2019s when it comes to love. Aziz sounds legit for trying to be interactive through his audiobook. Haha, that sentence with the $50k \u201cNASA\u201d trash bags is hilarious!! This reminds me of other places that upcharge simple things because of the brand (Disney XD). Ove sounds like the character for bonding after the initial incident over his run-over mailbox XD. I\u2019ve been interested in war history- more in particular about how people dealt with the situation and how they fought to survive even if they weren\u2019t in the army.\nThanks for sharing your thoughts about the books! I still haven\u2019t made time to read a book yet .____.\u201d ~ maybe next year!!\nThey all sound like amazing books and I am very interested to read A Man Called Ove by Fredrick Backman! I had not heard of it before, and sounds like something that I could really like. Thanks for sharing your favourites.\nThe Martian, the movie was AMAZING. I need to read the book now~! ^^",

        "raw_content": "Home/Action & Adventure, Drama, Family, Movies, Musicals, Romance/ODDS & END OF YEAR MOVIES: PATRIOTS DAY/LA LA LAND/ROGUE ONE\nPATRIOTS DAY\u2013Pointless. If you lived through the Boston Marathon bombings, nothing compares. For all its good intentions and attempts at verisimilitude, this film adds nothing and mutes the impact of that tragic week in Boston\u2019s history. It also traffics in some pretty annoying cliches: Boston cops are, apparently, the most foul-mouthed in the country; and only the same roster of actors can manage a credible Boston accent, thus they appear in every movie set in our fair city: Kevin Bacon, Michelle Monahan, Erica McDermott in a small role, and of course Mark Wahlberg whose pugnacity is once more hitched to some sort of battle. Here he plays a composite character, a police officer who manages to be EVERYWHERE: at the scene of the bombings, behind the scenes with the FBI, and at the big shoot-out in Watertown. \u201cThey messed with the wrong city,\u201d he threatens as he heads out of frame. I think filmmaker Peter Berg and company messed with the wrong subject.\nLA LA LAND\u2013I have NO idea why so many critics think this is the best film of the year. It was entertaining and among the most unusual offerings of the season, another from the talented Damien Chazelle who last year gave us WHIPLASH. Some have said it \u201cre-invents\u201d the movie musical. Sure\u2013by casting it with actors who can\u2019t sing or dance. I LOVE Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone who have real chemistry here as the romantic leads seeking fame and fortune in Hollywood. The opening sequence is a splashy surprise, a sprawling production number on the sunny L.A. freeway. And the final sequence is a bittersweet mini-movie marvel all by itself. But what happens in between either goes slack or left me wanting. Whenever I saw Stone and Gosling break into a musical number, I couldn\u2019t get Fred and Ginger and Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse out of my head. What\u2019s the point of this casting? That we all dream ourselves bigger and better than we actually are? It IS beautifully shot, and cracks open the soul-killing erosion of auditioning and commercialism on aspirants with real talent. Best of the year? No way. (see my list). Worth seeing? Sure.\nROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY\u2013an exciting adventure \u201cOnce Upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away,\u201d that pits the Rebel Alliance against the Imperial Forces in pursuit of the plans for the death star! It\u2019s all a prequel to the ground-breaking \u201cStar Wars\u201d saga and iconic characters to come. Lots of fun, and just enough action to keep you engaged, but perhaps MOST notable for having the heroine\u2013a fearless and forthright Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso\u2013 lead the charge and all the derring-do, while her partner Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) follows her with growing admiration. Its parting shot will make your heart ache. R.I.P. Carrie.\nVicki Donlan December 31, 2016 at 6:15 am - Reply\nOMG- I am so glad to read your review of La La Land \u2013 I thought I had lost my love of real musical/comedies. I call it a lovely movie that is at least 30 minutes too long as it made its point simply and beautifully without endless scenes of Emma\u2019s struggles. Put them in the same scene and the movie flowed\u2026but the ending was perfect. However, I will NEVER get the theme out of my head\u2026.I hear it in my sleep!\nI\u2019m seeing Lion today \u2014 where is your review?\nJoyce Kulhawik January 3, 2017 at 1:42 pm - Reply\nLOVED LION. Will review in my next round up of films this week! I\u2019ve been getting lots of similar feedback from folks about LA LA LAND. So glad you agree. Happy NEw Year!",

        "raw_content": "btravis@prosecutors.ky.gov\nIn 2012, Burr Travis started talking to Commonwealth\u2019s Attorney Rob Sanders about the need for a drug-treatment program in the Kenton County court system to help people accused of drug offenses deal with their addiction issues.\nTravis \u2014 who worked as a criminal defense attorney at the Florence law firm Busald Funk & Zevely for 36 years before retiring in December 2014 \u2014 said he recognized the need for the program from his personal experience as criminal defense attorney and his years of work with various drug-addiction agencies in the Northern Kentucky community. This need became even more pronounced after the opiate and heroin epidemic hit the Northern Kentucky region.\nTravis and Sanders spent three years putting together the program, which required approval and support from the Kentucky Department of Corrections, local judges, the Kenton County Fiscal Court and Jailer, and the agencies that would need to evaluate and treat these criminal defendants.\nAfter Travis retired as a criminal defense attorney in December 2014, he joined the Commonwealth\u2019s Attorney office in January 2015 to run the office\u2019s newly created HEART initiative, which stands for Heroin Expedited Addiction Recovery Treatment. He donates his entire salary as an Assistant Commonwealth\u2019s Attorney to the treatment agencies that participate in the program: NorthKey Community Services, Transitions, and Ten-10.\n\u201cThe goal of the program is to save lives by getting people facing drug possession charges out of jail and into treatment as soon as possible,\u201d Travis said. \u201cWe are trying to get them treatment from Day One, when they first enter the criminal justice system, instead of four to five months later, as was done in the past.\u201d\nCertified substance abuse counselors evaluate inmates for treatment opportunities, the costs of which are covered by a grant NorthKey received for the initiative or insurance programs like Medicaid or private medical insurance.\nIf inmates qualify for the program (those also accused of felonies like robbery, burglary, assault, rape, or murder don\u2019t qualify), a Kenton County circuit or district judge can order them to go to treatment when they are released from jail on a secured or unsecured bond.\n\u201cWe follow that person through the treatment process to verify that they are doing what they are supposed to do. If they don\u2019t, they go back to jail,\u201d Travis said. \u201cOver the last four years, this program has literally saved both lives and many families by helping people overcome their addictions and take their lives in the right direction.\u201d\nTravis graduated magna cum laude from the University of Cincinnati in 1973 and Salmon P. Chase College of Law at Northern Kentucky University in 1977. The Fort Mitchell resident served for nine years on the Kentucky Racing Commission and also served four years on the Horseman\u2019s Benevolent Protective Association.\nHe currently serves as the Racing Commission\u2019s representative to the Kentucky Health and Welfare Fund, which uses uncashed pari-mutuel tickets to provide funds to people who work on the backside of Kentucky\u2019s horse racing tracks who need financial aid, such as covering their uninsured medical expenses or funeral costs.",

        "raw_content": "1.14 The Wise Little Girl\nOnce upon a time . . . in the immense Russian steppe, lay a little village where nearly all the inhabitants bred horses. It was the month of October, when a big livestock market was held yearly in the main town. Two brothers, one rich and the other one poor, set off for market. The rich man rode a stallion, and the poor brother a young mare.\nAt dusk, they stopped beside an empty hut and tethered their horses outside, before going to sleep themselves on two heaps of straw. Great was their surprise, when, next morning they saw three horses outside, instead of two. Well, to be exact the newcomer was not really a horse. It was a foal, to which the mare had given birth during the night. Soon it had the strength to struggle to its feet, and after a drink of its mother's milk, the foal staggered its first few steps. The stallion greeted it with a cheerful whinny, and when the two brothers set eyes on it for the first time, the foal was standing beside the stallion.\n\"It belongs to me!\" exclaimed Dimitri, the rich brother, the minute he saw it. \"It's my stallion's foal.\" Ivan, the poor brother, began to laugh.\n\"Whoever heard of a stallion having a foal? It was born to my mare!\"\n\"No, that's not true! It was standing close to the stallion, so it's the stallion's foal. And therefore it's mine!\" The brothers started to quarrel, then they decided to go to town and bring the matter before the judges. Still arguing, they headed for the big square where the courtroom stood. But what they didn't know was that it was a special day, the day when, once a year, the Emperor himself administered the law. He himself received all who came seeking justice. The brothers were ushered into his presence, and they told him all about the dispute.\nOf course, the Emperor knew perfectly well who was the owner of the foal. He was on the point of proclaiming in favour of the poor brother, when suddenly Ivan developed an unfortunate twitch in his eye. The Emperor was greatly annoyed by this familiarity by a humble peasant, and decided to punish Ivan for his disrespect. After listening to both sides of the story, he declared it was difficult, indeed impossible, to say exactly who was the foal's rightful owner. And being in the mood for a spot of fun, and since he loved posing riddles and solving them as well, to the amusement of his counsellors, he exclaimed:\n\"I can't judge which of you should have the foal, so it will be awarded to whichever of you solves the following four riddles: what is the fastest thing in the world? What is the fattest? What's the softest and what is the most precious? I command you to return to the palace in a week's time with your answers!\" Dimitri started to puzzle over the answers as soon as he left the courtroom. When he reached home, however, he realised he had nobody to help him.\n\"Well, I'll just have to seek help, for if I can't solve these riddles, I'll lose the foal!\" Then he remembered a woman, one of his neighbours, to whom he had once lent a silver ducat. That had been some time ago, and with the interest, the neighbour now owed him three ducats. And since she had a reputation for being quick-witted, but also very astute, he decided to ask her advice, in exchange for cancelling part of her debt. But the woman was not slow to show how astute she really was, and promptly demanded that the whole debt be wiped out in exchange for the answers.\n\"The fastest thing in the world is my husband's bay horse,\" she said. \"Nothing can beat it! The fattest is our pig! Such a huge beast has never been seen! The softest is the quilt I made for the bed, using my own goose's feathers. It's the envy of all my friends. The most precious thing in the world is my three-month old nephew. There isn't a more handsome child. I wouldn't exchange him for all the gold on earth, and that makes him the most precious thing on earth!\"\nDimitri was rather doubtful about the woman's answers being correct. On the other hand, he had to take some kind of solution back to the Emperor. And he guessed, quite rightly, that if he didn't, he would be punished.\nIn the meantime, Ivan, who was a widower, had gone back to the humble cottage where he lived with his small daughter. Only seven years old, the little girl was often left alone, and as a result, was thoughtful and very clever for her age. The poor man took the little girl into his confidence, for like his brother, he knew he would never be able to find the answers by himself. The child sat in silence for a moment, then firmly said:\n\"Tell the Emperor that the fastest thing in the world is the cold north wind in winter. The fattest is the soil in our fields whose crops give life to men and animals alike, the softest thing is a child's caress and the most precious is honesty.\"\nThe day came when the two brothers were to return before the Emperor. They were led into his presence. The Emperor was curious to hear what they had to say, but he roared with laughter at Dimitri's foolish answers. However, when it was Ivan's turn to speak, a frown spread over the Emperor's face. The poor brother's wise replies made him squirm, especially the last one, about honesty, the most precious thing of all. The Emperor knew perfectly well that he had been dishonest in his dealings with the poor brother, for he had denied him justice. But he could not bear to admit it in front of his own counsellors, so he angrily demanded:\n\"Who gave you these answers?\" Ivan told the Emperor that it was his small daughter. Still annoyed, the great man said:\n\"You shall be rewarded for having such a wise and clever daughter. You shall be awarded the foal that your brother claimed, together with a hundred silver ducats . . . But . . . but . . .\" and the Emperor winked at his counsellors:\n\"You will come before me in seven days' time, bringing your daughter. And since she's so clever, she must appear before me neither naked nor dressed, neither on foot nor on horseback, neither bearing gifts nor empty-handed. And if she does this, you will have your reward. If not, you'll have your head chopped off for your impudence!\"\nThe onlookers began to laugh, knowing that the poor man would never to able to fulfill the Emperor's conditions. Ivan went home in despair, his eyes brimming with tears. But when he had told his daughter what had happened, she calmly said:\n\"Tomorrow, go and catch a hare and a partridge. Both must be alive! You'll have the foal and the hundred silver ducats! Leave it to me!\" Ivan _did as his daughter said. He had no idea what the two creatures were for, but he trusted in his daughter's wisdom.\nOn the day of the audience with the Emperor, the palace was thronged with bystanders, waiting for Ivan and his small daughter to arrive. At last, the little girl appeared, draped in a fishing net, riding the hare and holding the partridge in her hand. She was neither naked nor dressed, on foot or on horseback. Scowling, the Emperor told her:\n\"I said neither bearing gifts nor empty-handed!\" At these words, the little girl held out the partridge. The Emperor stretched out his hand to grasp it, but the bird fluttered into the air. The third condition had been fulfilled. In spite of himself, the Emperor could not help admiring the little girl who had so cleverly passed such a test, and in a gentler voice, he said:\n\"Is your father terribly poor, and does he desperately need the foal.\n\"Oh, yes!\" replied the little girl. \"We live on the hares he catches in the rivers and the fish he picks from the trees!\"\n\"Aha!\" cried the Emperor triumphantly. \"So you're not as clever as you seem to be! Whoever heard of hares in the river and fish in the trees! To which the little girl swiftly replied:\n\"And whoever heard of a stallion having a foal?\" At that, both Emperor and Court burst into peals of laughter. Ivan was immediately given his hundred silver ducats and the foal, and the Emperor proclaimed:\n\"Only in my kingdom could such a wise little girl be born!\"\nQ 1: Why didn't the Emperor state the foal belonged to Ivan in the beginning?\nHe thought the foal belonged to Dimitri.\nHe wanted to play a game.\nHe didn't know who the foal belonged to.\nHe felt Ivan had disrespected him.\nQ 2: Why could the foal not belong to the rich brother?\nA stallion cannot give birth to a foal.\nThe horse was not born from either horse.\nA mare cannot give birth to a foal.\nThe poor brother had branded the horse.\nQ 3: How could the answers the neighbor gave Dimitri be true?\nThey were the answers the Emperor told her.\nThey were given under stress.\nThey were the real answers.\nThey were true from her perspective.\nQ 4: What lesson might the Emperor have learned?\nChildren can be very clever.\nLies can sometimes be good.",

        "raw_content": "IT\u2019S A SIMPLE FACT THAT EU INSTITUTIONS are badly failing the vast majority of people, as neoliberal doctrine dominates political thinking in its core decision-making centres. These assumptions were built into the structural framework of the Eurozone by Maastricht, unleashing swingeing austerity on the peoples of southern Europe in particular. The effects of these policies have been growing inequality and deprivation. Oxfam has estimated that as many as 123 million people \u2013 a shocking one in four EU citizens \u2013 were at risk of poverty in 2015. Meanwhile, the open capital regimes established across the world over the last four decades have super-charged the wealth of the very richest and allowed them to evade colossal amounts of tax, with an estimated \u20ac1 trillion lost from EU states\u2019 tax receipts through evasion and avoidance every year.\nBe in no doubt, then, that to reverse these trends and construct an alternative political economy, radical political and institutional change is needed in Europe. But how do we go about achieving this? Can Brexit offer a path to a social Europe? While the argument has receded in recent months, many people on the left responded to the Greek crisis of summer 2015 \u2013 which saw the brutal imposition of an austerity programme in defiance of the electoral mandate of Syriza \u2013 by arguing that the time had come for the left to countenance Brexit. But since then the mood has shifted as those considering the possibility, including Jeremy Corbyn, Owen Jones, George Monbiot, and some trade union leaders, have swung back in favour of the In side.\nAs someone who has recently helped found Another Europe Is Possible, the left campaign for an In vote in the upcoming referendum, I welcome this rethinking. The case for an In vote rests on a fourfold assessment of the political situation.\nFirstly, the recognition that \u2018Britain is not Greece\u2019 and the brutal cuts inflicted on public services seen in this country since 2010 have not been imposed by any foreign government or international institution, but reflect the ideological agenda of British Thatcherism. Whether In or Out, under the Tories this war on the social fabric of society will sadly continue.\nSecondly, the referendum itself is seen by those who pushed for it as part of the continuation of Thatcher\u2019s legacy, the logical implication of her famous Bruges speech and the alleged private belief in a British exit she held in her last years. David Cameron was pushed into this referendum by right wing Thatcherites within his own party \u2013 not by anything even resembling a socialist campaign for Out. This fanatical but increasingly significant layer of Tory opinion resents the EU for the workplace and environmental protections that exist at a European level. This means key protections, such as the right not to work more than 48 hours a week and statutory twenty days holiday, would clearly be at risk if Britain voted to leave.\nThirdly, there is no escaping the fact that support for the Out campaign has been fuelled by xenophobic and anti-immigrant sentiment. Myths of migrants stealing British jobs, or benefit tourism, abound. They do not stand up to any proper scrutiny but are happily parroted by Nigel Farage and others. A defence of the principle of free movement is vital in this context. The right to work and study in other EU states, and not to be discriminated against on the grounds of nationality when we do so, is a key achievement of European integration. Some 1.8 million British citizens living in other member states are currently benefiting from this precious right.\nLastly, fixing Europe\u2019s many problems requires international co-operation of social movements, trade unions and political parties across Europe. New and promising transnational projects are now emerging to promote a radical vision for the continent. Plan B For Europe is advocating radical alternatives to austerity, while the Democracy in Europe 2025 movement calls for the long overdue radical democratisation of the EU.\nAnother Europe Is Possible sees itself as part of this family of movements projecting an alternative vision. Rather than walk away from these new developments, it\u2019s time for the left in Britain to shake off its exceptionalism and orientate to these campaigns.\nlectures in politics at Ruskin University and is convenor of Another Europe is Possible.",

        "raw_content": "Recent Neighborhood Watch Meetings in La Mirada\nLa Mirada~On Thursday, March 15th, City of La Mirada Public Safety officer Mary Cipres and the principal of Foster Road Elementary, Sal Villagomez, hosted a Neighborhood Watch meeting to give the community a chance to express some of their concerns.\nAround 30 members of the community gathered at Foster Road Elementary to ask questions directly to the deputies that are assigned to the La Mirada area. The deputies were happy to answer any questions and shared a few positive updates.\nRecently there have been a few troubling incidents in the area and the officers confirmed they have discovered the cause of the issues and have a firm handle on it. They reiterated that gang activity will not be tolerated and they are taking action to suppress it.\nCipres and the officers encourage the members of the community to call the La Mirada Sheriff's station at (562) 902-2960 if they witness anything suspicious, no matter how big or small.\nShe also shared a few other ways to stay informed and involved in the community. E-Watch is a weekly email that is sent out to provide updates about criminal activity in the city. You can access it on the city's website under \"Reference Links\".\nIn addition, you can download the app My La Mirada which is an easy way to bring attention to things that need to be addressed, such as broken city equipment, tagging, etc. You simply take a photo of what you are observing and send it through the app. You can also follow La Mirada Public Safety on Facebook (@LaMiradaPublicSafety) and on Twitter (@LaMiradaPS) to stay connected.\nAdditional meetings were hosted at Gardenhill Elementary on March 22nd and at a home in the Foster Park area on March 23rd.",

        "raw_content": "Jodie Powell's Letter to the Editor on State Government Session\nFront Row: Amanda Stanberry, Devin Gabriel, Monica George, Melanie Johnston, Robin Parker, Shirley Verberne\nSecond Row: Cally Berner, Valerie Watts, Brent Baumbach, Michelle Dixon, Jodie Powell, Trisha Labbe and Program Facilitator, John Dadis\nThird Row: Eddie Barker, Latecial Milton, Virginia Baker, Parker Layrisson, Wesley Daniels, Chad Richard\nOur Legislators at Work\nOn Thursday, May 19th, the 2011 Leadership Tangipahoa class had the opportunity to spend that day in Baton Rouge at our State Capitol watching our legislators at work. This was our last class of the year before our graduation next month. It was a very refreshing and affirming experience summarizing all of our classes this year. I think that as citizens we sometimes lose sight of the purpose of our elected officials and their duty to represent their constituents\ufffd needs. It is very easy to become disenchanted with politics these days and to want to ignore or completely write off government in general from our thinking. This write-off may be due to a feeling that your opinion doesn\ufffdt matter and that they, our elected representatives and officials, are going to do whatever they want to do in their law and policy making in the interest of deal making or some political agenda anyway. What I learned from this experience is that this is not the case.\nDuring our visit, we had the opportunity to sit in on both House and Senate Committee meetings. This was a great experience that is open to any citizen. On the House side we listened to the Education Committee discuss Virtual Schools for our Louisiana High School Students to aid them in furthering their education when classes are not offered in their respective schools or they do not have an instructor that can teach particular classes on staff. The committee also discussed Bill 183 being presented by Senator Apell, which is the moving of UNO out of the LSU system and into the University of Louisiana System. It was refreshing to see them discuss both sides of this issue and to watch them take testimony from both parties (for and against) as they worked together to answer questions through civil debate and the presentation of statistics and factual information to create a bill that was satisfactory for all involved. This process was the same on the Senate Committee side as well where we sat in on the Municipal Committee Meetings. The committees also accept questions and concerns on note cards, in addition to green in-favor and red opposed cards from the people in attendance. This is where your opinion matters. While we all cannot take time off of work to sit in committee meetings all day, by contacting your State Representative or Senator you can have a voice on any issue. They also post the proposed bills and amendments online for you to read and a schedule of when they will be addressed as well.\nFrom the committee meetings we moved to the House of Representatives Session in progress upstairs. They were debating and amending House Bill 112 which deals with bullying in our schools as presented by State Representative Badon. As a parent of two school age children this was an interesting debate to watch. The gallery was full of everyday citizens both for and against the passage of this bill. I watched in awe as various representatives very passionately presented their opinions on this bill. Unfortunately, this bill did not pass, but I am sure it will resurface in a different form at some point in the near future.\nWhile we study democracy, government, and its systems of checks and balances as school children, I think we soon forget that it is our God given right in this country to have a voice and to be represented by the people that we elect to make sure that our voices are heard. We are most fortunate to have these rights as compared to many other places in the world. I would like to thank all of our elected Representatives and Senators for the work that they do. In particular I would like to thank Representatives Steve Pugh and Jon Bel Edwards for the time that they spent with our class during this eye opening day. I am proud to have them representing us locally on the state level. They have a big job and are in my opinion doing it very well.\nRepresentative Pugh joined us for a great lunch in the capitol dining area, during which he explained the process of getting a bill to the floor for a vote. He explained that as citizens, if we have a particular issue we would like to see addressed or made into a law, that we can contact our local representative, meet with them, and that they have staff that can help you to write your bill and put it in the proper format to bring it through committee and then hopefully to the floor to be voted on. You truly do have the opportunity to make a difference as an individual if you are passionate about a particular issue that you feel needs to be made into a law.\nWe ended our day with a tour of the Governor\ufffds Mansion given by Mrs. Bobbie Johnson. The mansion is a beautiful place with an interesting history all told through its murals, portraits, china, and furnishings. The artwork at the mansion is on loan from many of our state artists and much of the artwork is done by children throughout the state. Many of the stories that Mrs. Johnson shared with us I had never heard before and enjoyed immensely.\nTo summarize this experience and that of being a participant of Leadership Tangipahoa, I can only say two words \ufffd amazing and inspiring. I have a new found faith in our system, our leaders, and the state and parish which we call home. I am proud to be from Tangipahoa parish and through this class my eyes have been opened to the wonderful opportunities that are afforded to us here. Our parish has so much to offer its residents, if you only take the time to seek its hidden treasures, learn about the inner-workings of our local and parish governments, see how fortunate we are to have the health, social, and eldercare programs that we have, talk to our teachers and educators about how much they love our children, and get to know and appreciate our criminal justice system. We are blessed to have so many people in our parish that go above and beyond their call of duty as citizens and in their job capacities to make our parish a great place to live, work, do business, and raise a family - Thank you.\nWhile improvements can always be made to enhance our quality of life in Tangipahoa Parish, I have learned how to participate in those processes with integrity, optimism, empathy, vision, and selflessness. I am changed by having participated in this class and would encourage others in our community to participate in the Leadership Tangipahoa program. I would like to thank the Leadership Tangipahoa board, alumni, and our fearless instructor John Dardis for making this such a great experience. I would also like to thank my classmates for sharing their lives and experiences with me during our adventures throughout the year. I look forward to working with each of you in the future building a greater Tangipahoa for our children and residents, because I know we will accomplish great things!\nJodie W. Powell",

        "raw_content": "How to Use Lifetime Value to Create a Facebook Audience That Actually Converts\nSeptember 14, 2018 Neil Patel\tComment\nTo survive and stay relevant in the modern era, your business needs to have an active presence on social media.\nWhen it comes to social networks, Facebook is king. As of June 2018, the platform had more than 1.47 billion daily active users and 2.23 billion monthly active users.\nOver 60 million businesses have Facebook profiles.\nThose companies are doing much more than just posting content to their timelines. The vast majority of these businesses are paying for ads.\nIn fact, 93% of marketers take advantage of Facebook advertising on a regular basis.\nIf you\u2019re active on Facebook but not running ads, you might fall behind the competition.\nIn a perfect world, you\u2019d be converting your social media followers into customers. That\u2019s the reason you\u2019re in business, right?\nBut some of you may have struggled with this. If you ran Facebook ads in the past and didn\u2019t get the results you were looking for, it could be the reason why you\u2019ve been avoiding this marketing strategy.\nDon\u2019t worry, you\u2019re not alone: 62% of small business owners feel their paid Facebook advertisements aren\u2019t reaching their targets.\nThe success of your Facebook campaigns is completely dependent on how you set up your audiences.\nIf you don\u2019t want to waste money on ads that don\u2019t reach your target audience, you need start focusing on the customer lifetime value (CLV).\nIf you don\u2019t know what this is or how to get started, I\u2019ll help you out.\nI\u2019ve been in your shoes before and wasted valuable marketing dollars on ads that didn\u2019t convert. But after taking advantage of customer lifetime value lists, I saw different results.\nI\u2019ll show you how to create Facebook audiences that convert by leveraging lifetime value.\nLearn how to calculate your CLV\nBefore we go any further, it\u2019s important for you to understand the basic concepts of customer lifetime value and why it matters for your Facebook ads.\nIn short, it\u2019s a number reflecting the amount of money a customer spends at your business before they leave it.\nThe longer a customer stays with your business over time, the more profitable they become for the business.\nIf you\u2019re not using this metric to help you make decisions, it could be an extremely costly mistake. Let me give you an example.\nLet\u2019s say your business sells watches through your ecommerce platform at bargain prices. The average retail price of your products is $30.\nTo drive more traffic to your website and generate leads, you start running PPC campaigns through Google AdWords.\nThis seems like a good strategy since the average cost per click for the retail industry is only $1.35. That\u2019s significantly lower than for other industries.\nHowever, the average conversion rate for retail ads is an abysmal 3.86%.\nAt that rate, you would need roughly 25 clicks just to get one conversion. At $1.35 per click, this single transaction would cost you $33.75.\nBut the average price of a watch on your website is only $30.\nThis is not a profitable marketing strategy, right? The truth is, you don\u2019t know the answer to this question unless you know your CLV metrics.\nThat\u2019s why you need to calculate your customer lifetime value before you begin any marketing campaign.\nLet\u2019s continue using the same watches sale example.\nIf the average transaction is $30 and the customer buys four times per year for the next five years, you can expect to make $600 from that customer.\nThat\u2019s nearly 18 times the amount of your initial acquisition cost.\nWhen it comes to your marketing strategy, it\u2019s important to use customer acquisition tactics that won\u2019t break the bank and yield a high ROI.\nOnce you\u2019re able to determine your CLV, it will be easier for you to launch new campaigns while having a better understanding of how those costs will pay off over time.\nPlus, if you\u2019re able to increase revenue without acquiring new customers, you can ultimately boost your customer lifetime value.\nI know what some of you are thinking. Sure, this sounds great, but how is this relevant to Facebook advertising? Allow me to explain.\nCreate a custom Facebook audience with CLV/LTV\nNow that you understand what a customer lifetime value is, why it\u2019s important, and how to calculate it, it\u2019s time to use this data to improve your Facebook ads. Facebook uses the abbreviation LTV to refer to lifetime value of a customer.\nAs I said earlier, if you ran Facebook ads in the past but weren\u2019t satisfied with the results, it\u2019s probably because you weren\u2019t able to target the right audience. You won\u2019t get conversions if the wrong people are exposed to your ads, even if the promotion is great.\nI\u2019ll show you how to generate leads with Facebook ads by targeting an audience that actually converts.\nHere\u2019s a simple step-by-step guide that explains how to set up these ads with your customer lifetime value calculations.\nStep #1: Prepare your customer data\nBefore you can set up your ads and do anything else, you need to prepare a spreadsheet with all your customer data.\nThis may be easier for some of you than others. If you\u2019re well organized and have a way to export this data from your POS system to a spreadsheet, it shouldn\u2019t be too much work.\nHowever, if you don\u2019t have a spreadsheet prepared yet, you can download a template directly from Facebook.\nTake the spreadsheet template, and input your own customer information. This information will be used to help create your custom audience.\nBasically, Facebook will take that data to match your customers and also find people similar to those customers.\nHere are some examples of the information that will be included on the spreadsheet:\nIt even has columns for things such as mobile advertiser ID and Facebook app user ID, which you may or may not have.\nIt\u2019s important that you pay close attention to the formatting required by Facebook for this spreadsheet.\nFor example, they want the column for the first names abbreviated as \u201cfn\u201d and the column for city abbreviated as \u201cct.\u201d\nThe more details about your customers you can include in this spreadsheet, the more accurate your custom audiences will be.\nStep #2: Add a column for lifetime value\nNext, you\u2019ll add another column to this spreadsheet for your customer lifetime value data.\nMake sure you use a broad range of numbers here. This will make your data more accurate as opposed to using your customers with the highest value.\nFacebook will calculate the difference between a top customer and an average one.\nDon\u2019t use negative numbers to show customers with a poor value. Doing this will mess up the calculations.\nIf your business accepts multiple currencies, make sure it\u2019s all converted to just one on this spreadsheet. Facebook won\u2019t be able to make the conversion for you if your data includes more than one currency.\nAs you can see from the screenshot above, Facebook also doesn\u2019t want you to use commas to separate values in the thousands.\nYou can use a decimal point to show a cents value, but otherwise, you can\u2019t include any other punctuation or separators in your lifetime value column.\nStep #3: Select \u201caudiences\u201d from your Facebook Ads Manager dashboard\nNow that all your customer information and lifetime value data is organized and formatted, you can continue.\nNavigate to the \u201caudiences\u201d menu from the Facebook Ads Manager dashboard.\nClick on the \u201ccreate audience\u201d option as opposed to \u201ccreate lookalike audience.\u201d\nTruthfully, either would work. But I think it\u2019s better to set up a custom audience first before you start experimenting with lookalike audiences.\nStep #4: Choose the \u201ccustomer file\u201d option from the list of audience types\nAs you can see from the menu above, there are several different ways for you to create a custom audience.\nEach of these five options has a purpose, depending on your goals.\nHowever, for our purposes here today, you\u2019ll select \u201ccustomer file\u201d from the menu.\nStep #5: Upload your lifetime value customer data\nNow you have to decide which type of customer file you\u2019ll use to create a custom audience.\nThose of you with a MailChimp account can directly import customer email addresses as a data source.\nHowever, that data won\u2019t be as detailed as the spreadsheet you created in previous steps.\nThat\u2019s why you\u2019ll select the \u201ccustomer file with lifetime value (LTV)\u201d option.\nSimply upload the spreadsheet, and Facebook will use the data, including the customer lifetime values, to create a custom audience.\nStep #6: Run an ad with your new custom audience\nOnce your custom audience has been uploaded, all you have to do is run a Facebook ad the same way you normally would.\nBut unlike in your previous campaigns when you manually choose an audience based on age, gender, language, and location, you\u2019ve got another option this time.\nNow, you\u2019ll select the custom audience you created with the uploaded file.\nThis will ensure your ads will be shown to Facebook users who are relevant to your business and primed to convert.\nAs with any marketing campaign, you need to stay within a reasonable budget. This number will be different for everyone.\nJust because your new ads target a more accurate audience doesn\u2019t mean you should dump every last marketing dollar into this campaign.\nTest the waters first to see how successful you are.\nFacebook makes it easy for you to stay within your budget and schedule your ads accordingly.\nThis feature will make sure you have weekly caps that won\u2019t be exceeded.\nI recommend starting with smaller amounts until you can be sure your ads are the most efficient for conversions. But we\u2019ll talk more about this concept as we continue.\nWhat type of ads are you going to run?\nYou\u2019ve got lots of options to choose from. It all depends on what fits well with the promotion you\u2019re running.\nTruthfully, I don\u2019t have a definitive answer for you here.\nSome ad formats work better for certain brands compared to others. That\u2019s why it\u2019s in your best interest to keep your budget low when you\u2019re first starting out.\nI suggest running ads with multiple formats to see which ones have the highest conversion rates.\nNow that you\u2019re targeting a custom audience, these ads will already be better than the ones you ran in the past. But don\u2019t stop there.\nYou still need to have great ads if you want your audience to convert.\nExperiment with split tests to improve your efficiency as well.\nFor example, run two identical ads in the same format, changing only the CTA to see which one generates the most clicks.\nWhich ads had the most success? Make sure to use those ones moving forward when you\u2019re ready to increase your budget.\nDon\u2019t be discouraged if your past Facebook ads were unsuccessful.\nThe ads you were running may not have been the problem. You were probably just not targeting the right audience.\nOne of the best ways to improve your audience is by integrating your customer lifetime value data. This is one of the most important pieces of information you need to use when it comes to running any type of marketing campaign.\nSimply follow the step-by-step guide I\u2019ve outlined above to create a custom audience with your customer lifetime values.\nOnce it\u2019s uploaded to Facebook, you can continue running ads the same way you did in the past. Only this time, you\u2019ll be much happier with the results.\nHow is your company creating custom audiences on Facebook to drive conversions?\n\u00ab \u2018American Vandal\u2019 is the first show to actually understand how teens use the internet Target acquired: How to define and use your ideal target market \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Home / Cooking with Extra Virgin Olive Oil\nOne of the most common myths perpetrated on the Internet is that while olive oil is healthy, it should not be used for cooking or frying. The belief is that somehow the high heat used in cooking or frying makes olive oil unhealthy. However, this belief is not consistent with historical uses of olive oil in Mediterranean cuisine, nor with a wide body of published research.\nOlive oil is not only safe for cooking, but it is recommended by scientists and olive oil experts for high temperature frying! The notion that extra virgin olive oil should never be heated or used for cooking is not supported by research.\nDr. Mary Enig, author of Know Your Fats, is one of America\u2019s foremost experts on healthy fats and oils. She recommends her own personal blend of oils including using olive oil for cooking. She states,\n\u201cA unique blend of oils that can be used for saut\u00e9ing and light frying is one that is a blend of coconut oil (one-third), sesame oil (one-third), and olive oil (one-third). It is easy to make up in small portions ranging from a single tablespoon measure (one teaspoon of each oil) to a pint and a half size (one cup of each oil).\u201d\nDr. Enig\u2019s recommendation is supported by a wide body of peer-reviewed published research. The high levels of antioxidants present in the highest quality olive oils, usually classified as extra virgin olive oils, are what make olive oil heat stable and an excellent choice for frying or cooking.\nA study reported in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry tested the effects of continuously heating virgin olive oil for 36 hours to measure how the oil degraded. The scientists reported:\n\u201cTwo monovarietal extra virgin olive oils from Arbequina and Picual cultivars were subjected to heating at 180 degrees C (356 degrees F) for 36 h. Oxidation progress was monitored by measuring oil quality changes (peroxide value and conjugated dienes and trienes), fatty acid composition, and minor compound content. \u2026 From these results, we can conclude that despite the heating conditions, VOO (virgin olive oil) maintained most of its minor compounds and, therefore, most of its nutritional properties.\u201d\nOxidized fats, which are primarily derived from polyunsaturated oils such as corn and soybean oils, are linked to inflammation and various diseases. Studies have been conducted comparing virgin olive oil with sunflower oil (a polyunsaturated oil) and cooking oils where antioxidants were added. These antioxidants, which are present naturally in high quality olive oils, protect against oxidative stress and inflammation when high heat is applied to the oils.3 In fact, the antioxidants present in olives are so powerful in resisting oxidation due to heat, that they are added to other cooking oils to make them more stable when cooking.\nThe International Olive Oil Council (IOOC) provides information about the maximum temperature that can be used when cooking with virgin olive oil.\n\u201cWhen heated, olive oil is the most stable fat, which means it stands up well to high frying temperatures. Its high smoke point (410\u00baF) 210\u00baC is well above the ideal temperature for frying food (356\u00baF) 180\u00baC. The digestibility of olive oil is not affected when it is heated, even when it is re-used several times for frying.\u201d\nIn a nutshell, virgin olive oil can safely be used for cooking and even deep frying. The oil can be reused more than once, and the oil does not seriously degrade in normal household cooking. Olive oil is sensitive to sunlight, however, and is therefore usually packaged in tinted bottles.\nRichard Gawel, an internationally known olive oil expert, also recommends the use of olive oil for cooking. He is a consultant taster and blender for a number of Australian olive oil companies, and has been the presiding judge of major olive oil shows in Australia and New Zealand, as well as the Los Angeles International Extra Virgin olive oil show.\nThese are the answers that Richard Gawel provides to commonly asked questions about cooking with olive oil.\nCan I use extra virgin olive oils for frying?\nYes, but to be honest, refined olive oils (that is those labeled as \u2018Pure\u2019 or \u2018Light\u2019) are probably a more cost effective alternative when more than shallow frying. Refined olive oils also begin to smoke at a higher temperature than most extra virgin olive oils, making them more suited to deep frying. However, extra virgin olive oils are a far better alternative when shallow frying. It is commonly thought that extra virgin olive oil smokes at a low temperature. However, it is a fact that the lower the free fatty acidity (FFA) i.e. better oils, the higher the temperature at which the oil will begin to smoke. Therefore if you purchase high quality oil with an FFA less than 0.2%, then it will start to smoke at a temperature around 20C higher than your average supermarket EV imported from the EU. That\u2019s a lot in culinary terms.\nCan I reuse olive oil?\nYes, extra virgin olive oils can be reused a few times. However, keep in mind that each time an oil is heated and cooled it will lose some of its aroma, flavour, freshness and health giving polyphenols and tocopherol. \u2026 However, recent research has shown that the important antioxidant called oleocanthal loses its anti-inflammatory activity under even mild short term heating.\nDo trans fats form in olive oil when it is heated?\nNo they don\u2019t. Trans fats form when any edible oil is subjected to an industrial process called hydrogenation designed to turn liquid oil into an edible fat that is solid at room temperature \u2013 that is margarine. The hydrogenation process involves heating up oil under extreme pressure and then bubbling hydrogen gas through it in the presence of a Palladium metal catalyst. For trans fats to form all of these conditions must be in place \u2013 heat and pressure and hydrogen gas and an appropriate catalyst. It just can\u2019t happen in your kitchen. The vast majority of trans fats in the average persons diet arise from fast foods, cheap margarines, or more commonly commercial baked products and crackers.\u201d\nThe common myth that olive oils are not suitable for cooking or frying is an unfortunate belief, particularly for those eating out at restaurants who want to avoid toxic GMO cooking oils such as corn, soybean, and canola. Many restaurants stock olive oil, and it is probably your best choice when ordering anything fried in restaurants, if the chef or cooks will accommodate your request. Saturated fats such as coconut oil are still the best choice for high heat cooking, but very few restaurants are stocking saturated fats yet these days, and we should not fear adding a high quality olive oil to our home kitchen cooking oils.\nThe olive oils with the highest levels of antioxidants, and therefore the most heat resistant to high-heat cooking or frying, are generally extra virgin olive oils. Unfortunately, many olive oils available in the market are adulterated and mislabeled extra virgin olive oils.",

        "raw_content": "Michael Van Duisen April 30, 2015\nFor as long as we have been able to, humanity has written down its thoughts and ideas, using the written word to establish a sort of immortality. Many of our early writings are lost, never to be seen or read by anyone. Yet a lucky few have made it this far, and here are 10 of the oldest.\n10The Tale Of Two Brothers\nEgyptian, c. 1185 BC\nWritten during or slightly after the reign of Seti II, ruler of Egypt from 1200\u20131194 BC, The Tale of Two Brothers is seen by some as the earliest example of a fairy tale. Though the exact date of the discovery of the papyrus is unknown, it was sold to the British Museum in 1857 and subsequently translated from the hieratic writing with which it was composed. The first part of the story follows the brothers Anubis and Bata. Anubis\u2019s wife tries to seduce Bata, who successfully fends her off. She then turns on Bata, feigning an illness and claiming he beat her, after he allegedly tried to seduce her.\nBata flees, for Anubis wants him dead, and he prays to the god Re-Harakhti to save him. After Bata expresses his innocence by severing his own genitals and tossing them into a lake, Anubis goes home and kills his own wife. Eventually, through a convoluted process of putting his heart into a tree and having it cut down by his own wife, Bata dies, and Anubis comes looking for him.\nThe second part of the story is quite different thematically, transitioning to a story of kingship, as Bata is eventually revived and made king, with Anubis serving as his prince.\n9The Westcar Papyrus\nPhoto credit: Keith Schengili-Roberts\nNormally rendered in English as King Cheops and the Magicians, the Westcar Papyrus is a collection of five separate stories, each one detailing an ancient Egyptian priest or magician and the miracles he performed. Allegedly discovered by and named after Henry Westcar, a British adventurer, the papyrus eventually found its way to a German Egyptologist, who translated its hieratic text. Though its origins are mysterious, it remains in the Egyptian Museum in Berlin.\nPerhaps the most widely known of the stories is that of Dedi of Dedsnefru. Purported to be 110 years old with a massive appetite, he was also a renowned magician with one especially amazing trick: He could reattach severed heads. Cheops brought him to his kingdom and offered up one of his own servants as a test, but Dedi refused, explaining he couldn\u2019t perform the \u201cwizardry\u201d on humans. He then produced a goose, which he quickly decapitated. The king was pleased and demanded more and more encore performances, culminating in Dedi performing the act on an ox. (Unfortunately, how he managed this is not detailed.)\n8The Lament For Ur\nSumerian, c. 2000 BC\nPhoto credit: Unclefester89/Wikimedia\nOne of the oldest examples of poetic literature in the world, the \u201cLament for Ur\u201d is a dirge for the destroyed city, written by the earliest kings of the Isin dynasty, who wished to rebuild it. The purpose of the poetry was to calm the angered, anguished soul of the god of Ur, Nanna, a prerequisite for the rebuilding efforts. In addition, the \u201cLament for Ur\u201d was also used to remove the cloud of suspicion that the kings of the Isin dynasty had anything to do with the city\u2019s destruction.\nNanna\u2019s wife, the goddess Ningal, is the speaker in the first half of the lament, with the voices of the survivors making up the second half. It begins with a list of the various Sumerian cities that had recently been destroyed, seen by the writer as abandonment by the gods. Ningal then goes on to describe the destruction of the city, \u201cwith corpses piled high in all streets,\u201d and she talks about how the bricks of the city call for her. The lament ends with the survivors praising Nanna and Ningal.\n7Classic Of Poetry\nChinese, 1000\u2013600 BC\nThe oldest extant book of poetry in Chinese history, the Classic of Poetry, or Shijing, is traditionally said to have been compiled by the great philosopher Confucius. It is part of a group of five separate books, collectively called the Five Classics. (Most people have probably at least heard of the I Ching, an ancient divination text.) Transmitted orally for centuries, the poems have no attributable author, yet the bulk was most likely created by those living during the rule of the Zhou royal kingdom, a dynasty credited with the foundation of Chinese culture.\nContaining over 305 separate poems, the Classic of Poetry is divided into three distinct books: Feng (Songs), Ya (Odes and Epics), and Song (Hymns). Perhaps the most noteworthy section of the book is Feng, the folk songs of the common people, laments about oppression, interspersed with hopeful optimism.\n6The Ipuwer Papyrus\nPhoto credit: Ohr Somayach International\nDisregarding the claims of many that this particular piece of literature proves the truthfulness and historicity of the Old Testament, the Ipuwer Papyrus is believed to have been written by the eponymous 17th-century BC Egyptian. Originally called The Admonitions of an Egyptian Sage, the text details the state of the country of Egypt at a time when it was plunging into disarray. Plagues are also said to be ravaging the land, with the Nile itself turning as red as blood, rendering its waters undrinkable.\nThe source of all this trouble: poor people trying to live above their station. This civil unrest led to the complete overrunning of Egypt by thieves and bandits. Property records were being destroyed throughout the country, causing confusion as to who the proper owners were; it got so bad that people were walking into the Nile, committing suicide by crocodile. Unfortunately, the document\u2019s true origin can\u2019t be nailed down, as the Ipuwer Papyrus is but a copy of an older manuscript.\n5The Story Of Sinuhe\nPhoto credit: John Campana\nWidely regarded as Ancient Egypt\u2019s greatest literary achievement, The Story of Sinuhe tells of an official of Amenemhet I\u2019s harem. While on a trip to Libya with Prince Sesostris I, a messenger comes to their expedition and informs them of Amenemhet\u2019s assassination and the plot to kill Sesostris himself. Fearful of his own life, for he was known to be an ally of the prince, Sinuhe flees the country, eventually settling in Syria, where he marries into a local chieftain\u2019s family and becomes a respected member of the community.\nYears of defending his father-in-law\u2019s homeland from invaders brings Sinuhe much notoriety, and he entertains Egyptian emissaries on several occasions. The emissaries eventually bring word to Sesostris, who is now the Pharaoh, having survived the attempt on his life. Sesostris wishes for Sinuhe, a man whose only crime was cowardice, to return to Egypt and sends word for him. Sinuhe comes back, welcomed with riches and notoriety.\n4The Story Of Wenamun\nThe only existing copy of this late Egyptian novel is located in the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow. Purchased near the end of the 19th century, The Story of Wenamun tells the possibly true tale of Wenamun, a high official of the temple of Amun. Sent on a trade mission to Phoenicia (modern-day Syria), he\u2019s tasked with finding cedarwood to restore the sacred barque with which Amun\u2019s statue was carried during festivals.\nAn Odyssey of sorts, Wenamun is dispatched for what seems like a run-of-the-mill mission, but it turns into a lengthy and event-filled journey. Eventually landing in Cyprus, he is nearly killed by an angry mob before falling under the protection of a local queen. Unfortunately, the tale ends there, as no other sheets of papyrus have ever been found.\nThe work is useful for historians, as it is one of only a handful of sources discussing the conditions in Egypt and Phoenicia at the time.\n3\u2018The Poor Man Of Nippur\u2019\nAkkadian, c. 1500 BC\nPhoto credit: Jasmine N. Walthall\nOne of the oldest examples of a folk tale, \u201cThe Poor Man of Nippur\u201d is a story about Gimil-Ninurta, a man so poor he lacks \u201ceven a change of clothing.\u201d He takes his last coin and buys a goat, so as to have a final feast, and he goes to the mayor\u2019s residence to eat there. (Some versions of the story have him bringing the goat just as a gift for the mayor.) Laughing at the poor man and the pitiful goat he brings, the mayor takes the animal and has his servants beat Gimil-Ninurta, throwing him into the street. Vowing his revenge, Gimil promises to repay the mayor threefold.\nHis first stop is the royal abode of the king of Nippur, whom Gimil-Ninurta somehow convinces to give him fancy clothes and a royal chariot. Heading back to his town, he tricks the mayor into trying to rob him. He then blackmails the mayor (and beats him) for having effectively robbed the king. A priest is Gimil-Ninurta\u2019s next disguise, and he beats the mayor again, taunting him again as well. Lastly, after the mayor has loaded up on guards, Gimil-Ninurta pays a man to run interference, and he sneaks in and beats the mayor a third time.\n2\u2018The Instructions Of Shuruppak\u2019\nPhoto credit: Oriental Institute Museum\nA collection of lessons and sayings, much in the same vein as the biblical Proverbs, \u201cThe Instructions of Shuruppak\u201d is a document penned by a father for Ziusudra, the hero of the Sumerian flood myth. Perhaps the greatest example of Sumerian wisdom literature, the document details dozens of helpful tips to ensure Ziusudra would be able to live a good life. Ranging from practical lessons to moral precepts, \u201cThe Instructions of Shuruppak\u201d ends with a shout-out to the maiden Nisaba, who was apparently tasked with writing all of it down.\nThe widespread use of \u201cThe Instructions of Shuruppak,\u201d as well as its popularity as a teaching tool, can be assumed thanks to the vast number of existing copies that have been discovered. With advanced lessons like \u201cdon\u2019t rape\u201d and \u201cyou shouldn\u2019t pass judgment when you drink beer,\u201d it\u2019s no surprise that the work enjoyed as much staying power as it did.\n1The Maxims Of Ptahhotep\nAn 18-page book of proverbs, The Maxims of Ptahhotep is a collection of the thoughts and ideas of Ptahhotep, an adviser for two different pharaohs, Menkauhor and Assa Djed-ka-Ra. Turning down the role of pharaoh himself, Ptahhotep dedicated his life to becoming a high priest and serving his role within the kingdom. Much like The Instructions of Shuruppak, these writings were presented as lessons for Ptahhotep\u2019s son.\nBeginning with a complaint about getting old, The Maxims of Ptahhotep flows seamlessly between rules about civil obedience and social structure to those regarding personal relationships and sex. Crediting his wisdom and inspiration to a god, Ptahhotep ends his writing discussing his long life (110 years), his pleasure in doing Maat (the ancient Egyptian code of righteousness) for the king, and his desire to see his son continue his legacy of good works.\n10 Free Science Fiction Books Online\n10 Savage Original Reviews Of Classic Works Of Literature",

        "raw_content": "Heather Ramsey June 12, 2015\nIn 1950, Nobel Prize\u2013winning physicist Enrico Fermi famously asked his colleagues at lunch, \u201cWhere is everybody?\u201d His question became known as the Fermi Paradox. He wanted to know why we haven\u2019t met any aliens if there are so many habitable planets in the universe.\nThere are a lot of theories as to why we haven\u2019t made contact yet (that we know of). But perhaps, we simply made a cosmic mistake in our calculations. We began by assuming that alien life would be like us. If that assumption is wrong, all of our calculations about finding alien life make no sense. So now we\u2019re changing that assumption, broadening our thinking and our strategies to make contact with alien life that isn\u2019t like us.\n10The Sunset Of Radio Wave SETI\nPhoto credit: SETI\nFor over 50 years, SETI has been listening for radio signals from space. In 1974, astronomer Frank Drake sent the first radio wave message, the \u201cArecibo Message,\u201d directed to aliens in outer space. As far as we know, we haven\u2019t received an answer. Listening to NASA these days, you\u2019d think that searching for alien life is their priority. Yet, Drake complains that NASA isn\u2019t funding the search. In fact, they may dismantle our two biggest radio telescopes, the Arecibo telescope and the Green Bank Telescope. If that happens, then SETI will be effectively shut down on the radio side. China has unveiled a complex radio telescope, although Drake isn\u2019t sure if they can get the technology working correctly.\nOn the other hand, optical SETI, which scans for laser flashes, is going strong from a funding standpoint due to private gifts. Unlike radio wave messages, optical messages depend on aliens targeting their narrow beams right at us. \u201cThe signals are so strong that we only need a small telescope to receive them,\u201d said Drake. \u201cSmaller telescopes can offer more observational time, and that is good because we need to search many stars for a chance of success.\u201d Drake likes to think that if aliens are willing to target us, they may be altruistic.\nNot everyone shares his optimism. Experts are engaged in a heated debate about whether we should send messages into outer space at all. Many scientists believe we could be jeopardizing our safety by contacting aliens before we\u2019re advanced enough to protect ourselves. According to John Elliott of SETI, there are members of the SETI community who are already sending messages despite the controversy. For the record, Drake is against actively sending signals to extraterrestrials, a project called active SETI. He prefers to simply listen for their signals.\n9Talking To Aliens 101\nJohn Elliott of the UK SETI Research Network believes we should go beyond looking for alien signals and instead determine the difference between an alien language and random sounds. By studying more than 60 human languages, he found a common signature of rhythms and structures in each language. For example, we have content words and short function words (such as \u201cif\u201d and \u201cbut\u201d) that bond phrases together. Regardless of the language, humans use nine content words at most in one phrase.\nSome animal species, like dolphins, have the same language signature. Although we can\u2019t speak dolphin language yet, we recognize about 140 distinct sounds in their speech. They always identify themselves by an individual name or call sign when they begin to communicate, limiting themselves to no more than five words per content chunk. Elliott believes that limit is consistent with their smaller brain size and ability to process information.\nHe\u2019s developed a series of small computer programs, the Natural Language Learner, to analyze alien signals for the complexity and internal structure of language. However, he probably couldn\u2019t decipher the content yet.\nCommunicating with intelligent animals on Earth may be a first step toward developing our ability to talk to aliens. We\u2019ve taught dolphins hundreds of our words, the difference between questions and statements, concepts like \u201cnone,\u201d and other syntax. As a first attempt to establish two-way, interactive communication between animals and humans, biologist Denise Herzing created a game where dolphins and humans could learn to talk to each other with a primitive, shared language. Female dolphins were more interested in talking than male dolphins. The female dolphins also invited dolphins from other species to join in.\nWe\u2019ve also learned that wild Campbell\u2019s monkeys add suffixes to certain sounds to warn others about different dangers. For example, \u201ckrak\u201d signals that a leopard, their natural predator, is near. But \u201ckrak-oo\u201d just generally warns of danger from a branch falling or other monkeys invading their territory. Diana monkeys also understand the calls from Campbell\u2019s monkeys.\nAnother study found that adult chimpanzees from the Netherlands slowly changed their call for apples to match the local chimp language after they moved to a Scotland zoo and became friends with the local animals. However, it\u2019s debatable whether it\u2019s a change in accent or actually a second language that indicates bilingualism.\n8Party Like It\u2019s AD 1015\nThe success of SETI depends on intelligent alien life using technology to send signals. While beings who use technology must be intelligent, the reverse isn\u2019t necessarily correct. Again, we come back to dolphin intelligence. Dolphins don\u2019t have the limbs to invent and use complex tools, but they\u2019re intelligent. Other types of alien life may be like that. Is it the use of technology or the ability to communicate and socialize that defines intelligence?\nAre we being too arrogant in believing we\u2019re more intelligent than creatures like dolphins? As Carl Sagan pointed out, \u201cWhile some dolphins are reported to have learned English\u2014up to 50 words used in correct context\u2014no human being has been reported to have learned dolphinese.\u201d They don\u2019t use technology to kill each other, either.\nTo prepare for alien contact, Laurance Doyle of SETI also intends to research communication between trees. They use chemicals to tell each other about pests and other threats. \u201cWho knows? Brains might not be necessary,\u201d he said.\nIn either of those two cases, we\u2019d have to travel to where the aliens live instead of waiting for them to contact us.\nBut there\u2019s an even simpler reason we may not hear from aliens in our lifetime, even if they\u2019re just like us. When we use telescopes to view outer space, we don\u2019t see things as they are today. We see the past. \u201cWe . . . see back in time because light takes time to get from there to here,\u201d explained Jonathan Gardner of NASA. \u201cSo, as we look further and further away, it takes longer and longer for the light to get from where it\u2019s emitted to here and we can actually see backward in time. And if we look far enough away, we\u2019re actually looking back to when the universe was much younger than it is today, when the light was emitted from these galaxies.\u201d\nIf aliens are looking at us through their telescopes, they would see us in the past, too. For example, aliens who live 1,000 light-years from us would see us in AD 1015. With radio amplifiers only invented in 1907, it may take at least another 900 years before aliens can pick up radio signals from Earth (if they\u2019re even using that technology).\n7The Social Scientists Weigh In\nUsually, we look to the hard sciences\u2014astronomy, computer science, engineering, physics\u2014to lead the way to communicating with aliens in space. But Doug Vakoch, the SETI Institute\u2019s Director of Interstellar Communication, has edited a free book called Archaeology, Anthropology, and Interstellar Communication that tackles the topic from the perspective of social scientists.\nEvery day, archaeologists and anthropologists try to unravel the secrets of ancient civilizations from mere fragments of information. We can never be sure if their interpretations are correct. Too often, we base our conclusions about past civilizations on the beliefs of our current cultures. But at least we have a common human ancestry. How will we go about deciphering messages from an alien culture about which we know nothing\u2014aliens who may have different sensory organs than we do, causing them to interpret messages differently as well?\nWe also assume there will be one culture in alien civilizations. But, in fact, this may be the one common thread between humans and aliens. \u201cWe must face the fact that we could be dealing with a world fragmented into different cultural frameworks, much as our own is, and consisting of beings who may not respond to contact with us in a uniform way,\u201d says John Traphagan in the book. \u201cTechnological advancement on Earth has not always been associated with increased political and social integration (think World Wars I and II) . . . It seems reasonable to think that we will be dealing with beings shaped by common memories (among themselves) and who will share, but who will also debate and contest, ideas developed within the frameworks of those common memories and experiences about what to do with the fact of having contacted humans.\u201d\nThey\u2019re pretty much saying we have no hope of deciphering an alien communication at this point or of responding in a coherent manner.\n6Heat Signatures\nUsing data from 100,000 galaxies observed by NASA\u2019s Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) spacecraft, scientists looked for heat signatures that would suggest the existence of advanced alien civilizations. \u201cWhether an advanced spacefaring civilization uses the large amounts of energy from its galaxy\u2019s stars to power computers, spaceflight, communication, or something we can\u2019t yet imagine, fundamental thermodynamics tells us that this energy must be radiated away as heat in the mid-infrared wavelengths,\u201d said researcher Jason Wright of Pennsylvania State University. \u201cThis same basic physics causes your computer to radiate heat while it is turned on.\u201d\nUnfortunately, scientists didn\u2019t find irrefutable evidence of an advanced civilization. It was an odd outcome considering that the galaxies have been around for billions of years. In that time, they should have become filled with aliens. The researchers concluded that either the aliens aren\u2019t there or they simply aren\u2019t advanced enough to show a heat signature.\nEven so, the team found 50 galaxies with abnormally high mid-infrared radiation levels. They\u2019ll need to do more studies to see if this heat is coming from the natural environment or if it\u2019s an alien heat signature.\n5Frugal Aliens\nEven though we don\u2019t explicitly say it, our assumptions about aliens have included the belief that they have unlimited resources with which to communicate. We\u2019ve been acting like they should spend every moment of their day trying to send us signals. If not, aliens can\u2019t possibly be out there.\nThat\u2019s human arrogance at its finest. If NASA has to cut funding to conserve resources, why wouldn\u2019t it be possible that aliens face the same problem? In 2010, a study from Microwave Sciences suggested that aliens may be broadcasting signals at higher frequencies than monitored by SETI to save money. SETI researchers listen to 1.42\u20131.72 gigahertz wavelengths because certain interstellar clouds emit radiation at that frequency. However, the scientists from Microwave Sciences believe that aliens would be more likely to use a frequency near 10 gigahertz because they could create a strong beam more easily and cheaply at that frequency.\nTo further conserve resources, aliens may broadcast brief pulses, similar to a tweet on Twitter, rather than a continuous signal. Possibly, the aliens would construct a powerful beacon and swing it across the Milky Way disc to broadcast to most of the galaxy\u2019s stars. That way, they could send a 35-second burst of pulses to every star within 1,080 light-years.\nWith that type of strategy, the aliens would only send a signal a few times a year. \u201cAstronomers have seen some unexplained signals that lasted for tens of seconds then were never seen again,\u201d says Benford. \u201cSome of those could have been extraterrestrial beacons, but there wasn\u2019t enough observing time to wait for any repeats.\u201d\nThis may explain the 72-second WOW signal that was detected by a SETI researcher in 1977. Some scientists believe this was an alien signal. It\u2019s called the WOW signal because the man who heard it wrote \u201cWow\u201d in the margin of his notes. It\u2019s still a mystery, both what it was and where it came from. It has never been detected again.\n4Ether-Based DNA\nPhoto credit: Edgar181/Wikimedia\nFor the most part, we\u2019ve assumed that water is necessary for life. But now, scientists are studying whether other liquids, such as the hydrocarbon methane that covers Saturn\u2019s moon Titan, could work, too. We\u2019d need different types of molecules called ethers to produce the chemical interactions for life, preferably in a warmer environment than Titan. Strung together, ethers may combine into complex polyethers to create living things. The DNA and RNA molecules found on Earth can\u2019t dissolve in hydrocarbons. In fact, they\u2019d become clogged up.\nLike water, hydrocarbons can be liquids, solids, or gases. Solids and gases won\u2019t allow biomolecules to interact to create life, so liquid hydrocarbons are what we need to find\u2014a kind of oily Earth, so to speak. Octane stays liquid over the largest temperature range, providing the most favorable condition for life. Propane and methane also work in smaller temperature ranges. Unfortunately, it appears that Titan is too cold to support life.\n\u201cWithin our own solar system, we do not have a planet big enough, close enough to the Sun, and with the right temperature to support warm hydrocarbon oceans on its surface,\u201d said researcher Steven Benner of the Foundation for Applied Molecular Evolution. But with the number of new solar systems we\u2019re finding, it may not be long before we discover a planet or moon with the right temperature to support life in a hydrocarbon ocean.\n3Contact Scenarios\nAlthough it seems unlikely that we\u2019ll make face-to-face contact with intelligent aliens soon, it\u2019s possible that they\u2019re living underground on one of the planets or moons in our solar system. They may also be living in the asteroid belt.\nIn 1950, the US military devised \u201cSeven Steps to Contact,\u201d a plan to handle first contact with intelligent aliens. First, we would surveil them from a distance, gathering as much data as we could. Next, we would visit them covertly to assess the level of their weapons and vehicles. If we had superior technology, then we would approach the alien\u2019s planet to see if they were hostile. If not, we would briefly land in remote, unpopulated areas of the planet to take samples of plant and animal life. The military also intended to abduct some aliens without harming them.\nAfter that, we would engage in low-level approaches to be seen by the aliens while staying out of reach. We\u2019d want to have as many aliens as possible observe our craft, yet we\u2019d want to appear friendly. Finally, if we thought it was safe, we\u2019d land and try to meet them.\nThis is one procedure that\u2019s remained roughly the same, but we\u2019re getting closer to the day that we may use it. It\u2019s unclear what would happen if we encounter a race with superior intelligence. We\u2019d have to hope they were friendly. If not, we\u2019d probably be goners.\n2The Nanosensor\nWhen we look for life on other planets, we usually try to detect a biochemical signature. As we talked about earlier, scientists have observed biosignatures that indicate life on lifeless planets with lifeless moons. So our current methods can easily yield a false positive.\nMIT scientists Sara Seager and William Bain believe we should expand our search beyond methane, oxygen, and the most well-known biosignatures. \u201cWe know there will not be huge numbers of accessible planets,\u201d said Seager. \u201cWe want to make sure we do not miss any signatures, by trying our best to think outside the box. Oxygen is a great biosignature gas for Earth, but what are the chances it will be present on an exoplanet?\u201d\nReinforcing the idea that alien life may be quite different from us, Seager and Bain point to the \u201czoo\u201d of diverse exoplanets we\u2019ve found so far. \u201cA specific, astonishing finding is that the most common type of planet in our galaxy are those with sizes between those of Earth and Neptune\u2014a new class of planet that is neither terrestrial nor giant and one without an accepted theory for its formation,\u201d wrote Seager and Bain in a paper.\nTo get around some of these limitations, researchers from Belgium and Switzerland have recently tested a new device that detects life without identifying biosignatures. Using a cantilever (a beam fixed at one end), the nanomotion detector scans a surface for small fluctuations in the metabolic activity of cells or in their movement. The scientists successfully tested their device on bacteria, human cells, mouse cells, plant cells, and yeast. Afterward, they killed the cells and retested to prove that the device could correctly distinguish between life and background signals. The nanosensor also performed well with soil and water samples containing microorganisms. Each experiment takes about 10 minutes.\nWhile researchers need to do more testing, the nanomotion detector could be a breakthrough method for finding alien life. It\u2019s simple, fast, small, and needs no biochemical information. If we combine it with biochemical detectors, we\u2019d have an especially powerful way to look for life on places like Saturn\u2019s moons.\n1The Best Place To Look For Life\nWhile largely ignoring the outer solar system, we\u2019ve tied up a lot of capital, human or otherwise, in exploring Mars, with the hopes of finding alien life there. It\u2019s possible we\u2019ll find something on the Red Planet. But the icy moons\u2014such as Enceladus (Saturn), Europa (Jupiter), and Ganymede (Jupiter)\u2014in the outer part of our solar system may have the greatest chance of supporting life. Many of them have buried oceans. \u201cCurrently there are five orbiters and two surface robots exploring Mars,\u201d said Corey Powell of Discover magazine. \u201cHere are the equivalent numbers for the four moons: Europa, 0. Ganymede, 0. Enceladus, 0. Titan, 0. We may have been looking for life in all the wrong places.\u201d\nPart of the reason we\u2019ve ignored the outer solar system in the past is the cost and time it takes to get there. We can fly to Mars in approximately eight months. But we may need six to seven years to get to Jupiter and Saturn, respectively. However, we\u2019ve already sent the Cassini spacecraft to Saturn, while the Europa Clipper may be looking at a 2022 launch. The Hubble Space Telescope and the Galileo probe also gathered information from Ganymede and Enceladus.\nAt the moment, the best place to look for alien life seems to be Enceladus. In addition to liquid water under its icy surface, researchers have found evidence of active hydrothermal vents on the moon\u2019s seafloor. Heat and water are important to life. In addition, its subsurface oceans appear to be in contact with the moon\u2019s mantle, so the water is mixing with rich minerals like sulfur that could lead to life. The water is quite alkaline, with a pH of 11 or 12. However, life has formed in similar alkaline environments on Earth.\n10 Incredible Facts About Jupiter\nTop 10 Cool Facts about Space",

        "raw_content": "Union Workers March For Economic Equality\nA sea of union workers, including some from the United Federation of Teachers and District Council 37, marched down Broadway Thursday to protest what they call an overall lack of economic opportunity. NY1's Bobby Cuza filed the following report.\nBroadway was transformed into a sea of union workers Thursday. They weren\u2019t protesting a particular contract issue, but rather what they say is an overall lack of economic opportunity.\n\"All of us are out here to collectively say that enough is enough. It's time that government and corporate America address issues which are going to lead to a broad-based economic prosperity and address the fundamental problem that we see today, which is the lack of jobs,\" said Vincent Alvarez of the New York City Central Labor Council.\nFor Cliftonia Johnson, lack of jobs is not an abstract concept. She was recently laid off from her job as a community associate at a Manhattan public high school.\n\"The people that were let go were the support staff, the people that are really on the front lines of education, not the ones that sit in the offices and have no knowledge of education,\" said Johnson.\nIndeed, the unions say it's those doing real work on the ground who have suffered while the wealthiest continue to prosper.\nAmong their policy aims are an extension of the state's so-called millionaires\u2019 tax and a living wage bill that would force companies receiving large city subsidies to pay higher wages.\n\"Forty-four percent of all income goes to one percent of the population, and everybody else is struggling just to survive,\" said Stuart Appelbaum of the retail, wholesale and department store union.\n\"We're interested in the one percent paying their fair share,\u201d said Lillian Roberts, president of District Council 37. \u201c\"We've come together to say jobs and justice.\u201d\nIt's no coincidence that some of the messaging is borrowed from Occupy Wall Street, which union leaders say helped change the conversation.\n\"You're standing in the middle of New York City right now, where half the households are below the poverty line. And now you\u2019re hearing people talk about that where that wasn't being spoken about before,\" said Michael Mulgrew of the United Federation of Teachers.\nWhile Governor Andrew Cuomo has been firmly opposed to the millionaires\u2019 tax, in recent days he's signaled he may be open to some changes in the tax code, which union leaders call a welcome development.",

        "raw_content": "This is a basic Dis/Ableism 101 visual tool for sighted folks that goes well with the Oppression Triangle tool. The purpose of this poster/handout is to introduce folks to the basic models of how dis/ableism works in North American society, and is based on the work of Mia Mingus and A.J. Withers. For a more in-depth look at the models discussed, please check out A.J. Withers\u2019 book and website on Disability Politics. For an intersectional and deeper look at these models, especially in regards to desirability, the prison industrial complex, and the medical industrial complex, please check out Mia Mingus\u2019s Medical Industrial Complex Visual.\nDivide the group into the following categories of interest: accomplices/allies, direct action, policy, and programming. These categories are fluid\u2013 if there is no one interested in policy, for example, then that doesn\u2019t have to be a group. If a group is interested in something not listed, like, for example, transformative justice or healing justice, then they can create a group for that. These are all types of anti-oppression/liberation strategies, which will be explained further in future posts.\nAsk each group to choose one of the dis/ableism models to work with and narrow it down to one of the levels of oppression, if possible. They can also choose an example of oppression that is under multiple models, such as certain nursing/group homes can be considered both under the charity model and the security model.\nEach group can come up with a way to use their anti-oppression/liberation strategy with the example of dis/ableist oppression they chose. For example, the direct action group can explain or act out how they could stage a protest at a pharmaceutical company that is lobbying doctors or at a group home that forces medicalization. Another example could be the accomplices/allies group creating a poster that explains other words to use instead of dis/ableist slurs. A final example could be a non-profit organization that is also a registered charity writing a disability justice policy that explicitly ensures that a certain percentage of their budget is used for accessibility and the benefit of disabled people, with a communications plan that makes these policies transparent to the public.\nHave the groups present to each other and debrief about the process of anti-oppressive collective planning. Did they ensure that any disabled folks in the groups lead? Did they ensure that consultation and leadership of disabled folks was at the forefront of any of their strategies, even if there were no disabled folks in their group?\nThe poster is pale blue with mostly dark grey font. At the top of the poster is written \u201clukayo.com \u2013 patreon.com/lukayo\u201c. The title of the poster is \u201cDIS/ABLEISM: A.K.A. how modern day capitalism considers people disposable and only as valuable as what they produce\u201d. The poster is credited as \u201cBASED ON THE WORK OF MIA MINGUS AND A.J. WITHERS\u201d. After the title, there are five columns and five rows.\nThe first row in the first column has the words: \u201cMODEL\u201d. The second row in the first column reads: \u201cThe oppressive \u201clogic\u201d used to justify violence, exclusion, exploitation, and negative messaging\u201d. The third row in the first column reads: \u201cExample(s) of Institutional Level of Oppression\u201d. The fourth row in the first column reads: \u201cExample(s) of Cultural Level of Oppression\u201d. The fifth and final row in the first column reads: \u201cExample(s) of Individual Level of Oppression\u201d.\nThe second column is headed by the term \u201cEugenics\u201d. The logic is \u201cEnsuring \u201cdeviant\u201d people never exist or erasing/destroying their lives\u201d. The institutional examples are \u201cGenetic manipulation; forced sterilization.\u201d The cultural examples are \u201cSuicidality and physical / sexual assault towards disabled people\u201d. The individual examples are \u201cOnly seen as inspiration or tragedy; slurs: lame, retard, dumb, cripple, derp, moron, stupid, idiot, spaz, barren, etc.\u201d.\nThe third column is headed by the term \u201cMedical\u201d. The logic is \u201cFixing people who are \u201cbroken\u201d\u201d. The institutional example is \u201cBig Pharma companies paying off doctors\u201d. The cultural example is \u201cOver-reliance on pills to solve problems\u201d. The individual examples are \u201cLack of support if you don\u2019t get \u201cfixed\u201d the \u201cnormal way\u201d; using OCD or other diagnoses as out-of-context adjectives\u201d.\nThe fourth column is headed by the term \u201cSecurity\u201d. The logic is \u201cControlling people who are \u201cdangerous\u201d\u201d. The institutional examples are \u201cForced medicalization; group/nursing homes\u201d. The cultural example is \u201cPsychiatric survivors not seen as \u201ctrustworthy\u201d\u201d. The individual examples are \u201cBeing refused agency; slurs: wacko, psycho(path), lunatic, loony, schizo, crazy, nuts, insane, etc.\u201d.\nThe fifth column is headed by the term \u201cCharity\u201d. The logic is \u201cCaretaking people who are \u201cincompetent\u201d like they are property\u201d. The institutional example is \u201cMajority of charity money goes to the non-disabled\u201d. The cultural example is \u201cExtreme dichotomy of helpless / codependent versus strong / independent\u201d. The individual examples are \u201cBeing treated like a child; terms like feeble-minded, special needs, being called an invalid, etc.\u201d.\n\u2190 Musings Monday: I Am Not A Burden\nMusings Monday: More Than Minorities \u2192\nWorkshop Wednesday: Pillars of White Supremacy | LUKAYO - October 17, 2018\n[\u2026] the Dis/Ableism 101 visual tool, the Pillars of White Supremacy is an anti-racism 101 visual tool for sighted folks that goes well [\u2026]",

This community is in sharp contrast to the nearby Pehladpur, where residents are small business owners and government employees.\nAround 70% of the houses are pukka and have toilets, but the rest are kuccha houses with no toilets and families living in these have to resort to open defecation. Hygiene is a major issue in this community. There is adequate water supply in the community, which is a huge relief for families.\nChildren go to a government school in the nearby Railway Colony. Girls are not allowed to go out and participate in any activities.\nMagic Bus started operations in Block F, Lakkarpur in April 2014. The Magic Bus team wants to work on reducing the incidence of gender inequality in this locality. Currently, there are around 60 children enrolled in our programme. Of these, only around 18 are girls. This alarming statistic is the first issue that the staffs are planning to address.\nThe main focus at present is rapport building in the community. Since the programme here is in its initial stages, children are not regular in attending sessions. This is also because of the fact that Community Youth Leaders haven\u2019t been recruited yet. Magic Bus is identifying and recruiting youth from the locality who will volunteer as Community Youth Leaders.\nMeetings are conducted regularly with parents with an aim to educate them about the programme and the importance of sports.\nMagic Bus Sport for Development sessions are held for two hours each on Saturday and Sunday, and are conducted in three stages:\nMagic Bus' work in this community is made possible with the support of our donor, Lalit Laungani.\nThank you Lalit!",

        "raw_content": "When I went into reading Rot & Ruin I did not expect to find it so engrossing. I\u2019ve only read one other zombie book, Outpost, and liked it, but that one was a totally different look at the zombie lore. In Rot & Ruin zombies act like expected, but apart from that, the author doesn\u2019t present his zombie story like others. Instead, he takes it from a very human angle, following the lives of Benny, his brother and friends. We get down to how life is for Benny, what it is like to live in a time where the old conventions of the world are no longer viable. In school, amongst their studies they learn how to handle zombies. When they reach 15 they have to start working so they can keep their rations. Because they live in an enclosed town, where it is supposedly safe from zombies, he has only a limited choice of jobs he can pick from, of which most he considers boring. So, in the end he ends up becoming an apprentice to his half-brother Tom, who is a bounty hunter (a closure specialist to be precise). At the beginning of the book Benny will annoy you, because he acts like a selfish teenager that unjustly blames his brother for things. He admires the wrong kinds of people, two other nasty bounty hunters, when he should be admiring, instead of hating, his brother. But as the story proceeds events happen one after the other and his affected and preconceived notions about how things are starts to be questioned, then falls completely away.\nWhat I loved about this book was the way the author didn\u2019t make the zombies out to be the real villains. The zombies act on instinct, they have no hate in them, just need, you can\u2019t judge them on a human level, because they are no longer human and are basically animals that don\u2019t know any better. But the bounty hunters (apart from Tom) are the real villains. They know what they are doing, are supposedly with feelings, yet they do the vilest things: like preying on the zombies and young children for their own amusement. They\u2019ve created a Gameland where they barter money to see which children can survive in a pit (and other scenarios) against zombies. They also hack at zombies for their own amusement, playing with them, and forgetting they were once people, people that were loved. This is Tom\u2019s view of zombies, which is why he\u2019s a closure specialist. He gets contracts from families to go put their loved ones (who have become zombies) to rest in a humane manner.\nBecause of what the bad bounty hunters do they have made enemies not only with Tom, but a girl who roams the wilderness. When the worst of the bounty hunters attack people that Tom and Benny love, taking one of them, the brothers go looking for her (Nix, and Benny\u2019s love interest). Along the way the lost girl joins them, leading to an explosive climax. And the epilogue is so perfect, really moving.\nThis is just a fantastic novel, well worth your time reading. I\u2019ve been told that this book and its sequels are being turned into movies, which I would absolutely love to see.\n5 very well deserved stars. I highly recommend Rot & Ruin.\nClick on this Amazon link to buy this book.",

But recent scandals have transformed the move from a political statement into a matter of protecting the city\u2019s deposits and reducing its debt burden. The chief roadblock to forming a municipal bank has been the concern that it was not allowed under state law, but a legal opinion issued by Deputy City Attorney Thomas J.

Visitors are surrounded by a dramatic coupling of endless cactus desert, backed by cinnamon mountains, and bordered by miles of white sandy beach and clear, azure waters.\nAn excursion to Punta Los Cabos is an immersion into Baja \u2013 a sampling of the resort communities, solitary beaches, colonial mining towns & small villages, and one of North America\u2019s most pristine undisturbed ecosystems.\nThe Punta Los Cabos peninsula shows many characteristics of an island, because it originated ten million years ago as an isolated portion of land. The coastline northeast of San Jos\u00e9 del Cabo offers rugged cacti-studded hills, gorgeous beaches, and true \u201cmiddle of nowhere\u201d scenery.\nIn the middle of the point, the Sierra de la Laguna dry forests of Sierra de la Laguna are home to some 224 species of plants, half the reptiles and amphibians in the entire Cape Region, and 96 percent of the region's mammals.

Highway 1 cruises through the area, with numerous dirt road turnoffs that head to nearby beaches, noted with blue & white signs.\nBeaches - Cabo Corridor\u2019s beaches are spectacular and almost always deserted. This is prime surfing and beach-combing territory; however, not all beaches are suitable for swimming due to strong undertow.\nWhale Watching \u2013 Of the world\u2019s approximately 21,000 gray whales, an estimated 11,000 make this journey over 10,000 miles to bear their calves and frolic in Pacific Coast lagoons to the north of Los Cabos. Many continue south, veering around land\u2019s end and into the warm waters of the Sea of Cort\u00e9s. Whales can easily be seen from shore.\nThis very tranquil, tropical, and traditional village dates back to 1730 when Jesuits came to indoctrinate the areas Peric\u00fa Indians. It later became a provisions stop for Spanish galleons passing between Acapulco and the Philippines. Throughout the 18th and early 19th centuries, pirates and fishermen took refuge in San Jos\u00e9, and a prosperous mission settlement grew.\nThe city sits about a mile back from the sea, and is separated from the beachfront by a series of low hills, and a nine-hole golf course. A few steps in from the sea are the city\u2019s main natural feature \u2013 a large freshwater estuary. The \u201cestero\u201d gives the city a semi-tropical, almost oasis look. Mango, avocado, and orange trees flourish in and around the city in contrast of the region\u2019s stark desert.\nSan Jose Misi\u00f3n - Founded by the Jesuits Jos\u00e9 de Echeverr\u00eda and Nicol\u00e1s Tamaral.

Where Blvd. Mijares intersects the Plaza, it leads past the colonial-style Municipal Palace. Facing the Palace is a long narrow fountain illuminated with colorful lights at night. The plaza has a tourist information office, and a small Jard\u00edin de Arte, where artists sell painting, sculpture, and other crafts on Sundays.\nThe Z\u00f3calo \u2013 The shaded courtyard and white gilded bandstand faces Parroquia de San Jos\u00e9, the city\u2019s main Catholic church (built on the exact site of the original mission dating to 1730).\nShopping & Dining - From the Z\u00f3calo, the streets radiate in grid fashion \u2013 filled with dozens of interesting shops, and some fine courtyard restaurants.

There are kayak rentals available next to the estuary, a great way to enjoy the lagoon and its feathered residents.\nLa Playita \u2013 Enjoy panoramic views from this rustic fishing enclave, including the San Jos\u00e9 del Cabo Lighthouse, San Jos\u00e9 and the estuary.\nHOTELS in SAN JOS\u00c9 DEL CABO & the CORRIDOR\nJust south of the city, at the edge of the Tropic of Cancer, stands the Sierra de la Laguna. This mountainous mass, declared a biosphere reserve in June of 1994, rises to an altitude of almost 2,200 meters, encompassing an extraordinary Darwinian paradise of birds and endemic plants. Its climate and vegetation change dramatically relative to the elevation. From sea level to 400 meters, the xerophilous brushwood prevails; from 400 to 1,200 meters, the driest of the semi-arid climates predominates, with the characteristic semi-deciduous forest, scattered with plants not found in other parts of the peninsula. From 1,200 meters to the highest peaks, the temperate climate and the abundance of rainfall favor the undisputed kingdom of pines and pi\u00f1on oaks. As you ascend the sierras, the landscape transforms radically, with sudden streams flowing into crystalline pools.",

Because he was such a skinny and sickly child he was taunted by local bullies and lost sight in his left eye from a stone wielding attack. His mother followed a naturopathic philosophy, believing in the principle of stimulating the body to heal itself without artificial means but with fresh air and exercise. His father had been a prize-winning gymnast who ran a gym with the help of his wife and family. With these influences it is believed that his mother\u2019s healing philosophy and his father\u2019s physical achievements greatly influenced his later ideas on therapeutic exercise, and the experiences from his rough childhood shed light on his special character and the motivations behind his life journey to fitness and health and the desire to help other people in need.\nIn his determination to overcome his physical disadvantages he began to educate himself and practice various Eastern and Western forms of exercise. He was given a discarded anatomy book by family physician and said, \u201cI learned every page, every part of the body; I would move each part as I memorized it. As a child, I would lie in the woods for hours, hiding and watching the animals move, how the mother taught the young.\u201d Along with his study of human anatomy and natural animal behaviors he also participated in bodybuilding, boxing, wrestling, yoga, gymnastics and martial arts. He was particularly fascinated by the ancient Classic Greek ideal of a man who was balanced equally in body, mind and spirit, schooled in cognitive thinking, philosophy and history while also maintaining a finely tuned, athletic body. By the age of 14, he had achieved an almost Adonis-like \u201canatomical ideal\u201d to the extent that he began posing as a model for anatomy charts. In 1912, he went to England to further train as a boxer, and there he found a public career as a circus entertainer performing in a Roman Gladiator act. He also taught self-defense to the Scotland Yard police force.\nIn 1914, after World War I with Germany broke out, Joseph Pilates was interned in England as an enemy alien along with other German nationals in a camp on the Isle of Man. It was during this time that he began refining and teaching his system of exercise that he later called \u201cContrology.\u201d The health conditions in the internment camps were not great, but Pilates encouraged his fellow detainees to participate in his daily exercise routines in order to maintain both their physical and mental well-being. Some of the injured soldiers were too weak to get out of bed, and rather than to leave them lying idle a determined Pilates devised ways to include them in his regime. With an invention born of necessity he utilized items that were available to him and created the forerunners of what would become the Reformer and Cadillac. He took springs from the iron beds and rigged them up to the bed posts, providing a type of spring assistance/resistance for his bedridden \u201cpatients.\u201d For instance, they could use the assistance of the springs to help roll their body to an upright position, or they could use the resistance of the springs to strengthen their arms, legs and the rest of the body. Legend has it that during the unusually severe and deadly flu pandemic of 1918, cited as one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history when an estimated 50 to 100 million people died from the flu, not one of the followers under his care died. With the less than optimal living conditions in the internment camps, which were hit especially hard by this deadly flu, he credited his exercise program for the prisoners\u2019 strength and fitness.\nIt could be said that he had become a \u201cnurse-physiotherapist\u201d with his powerful and revolutionary approach to life enhancing therapeutic exercise. After WWI, Joseph Pilates briefly returned to Germany where his reputation as a healer/physical trainer preceded him. He briefly worked for the Hamburg Military Police as a self-defense and physical fitness trainer. Eventually he was asked to work for the Kaiser to train the German Army; however, because he was not happy with the new political direction of Germany and also had a clear desire to help heal people rather than to train them to harm others, he decided instead to pack his bags and move to America. In 1926, at the age of 43, he immigrated to the United States and met his beloved Clara on the boat to New York City. With Clara as his dedicated teaching partner they opened the first Body Contrology studio as a gym at 939 Eighth Avenue at 56th Street in Manhattan. This was a building full of dance studios and rehearsal halls, and soon the directors called upon \u201cJoe\u201d to rehabilitate and strengthen their dancers who were repeatedly injuring themselves. Soon his exercise program became an intrinsic part of the life, rehab and training of many dancers. Many famous movement visionaries such as George Balanchine, Martha Graham, Hanya Holm and Ruth St. Denis also became firm believers in Body Contrology, and from 1939 to 1951 Joe and Clara went every summer to Jacob\u2019s Pillow, a well known dance camp in the Berkshire Mountains. Dance Magazine in February 1956, reported \u201cAt some time or other virtually every dancer in New York has meekly submitted to the spirited instruction of Joe Pilates.\u201d The enthusiasm for Pilates by the dance community then brought many athletes and performers of all kinds flocking to Joe and his gym for the strength and grace his exercise method provided. Mr. Pilates also counted everyone from socialites to plumbers to doctors as his clients.\nJoseph Pilates taught in New York from 1926 \u2013 1966, and during this time he continued to develop his exercise system and to create new pieces of equipment for it. He eventually outlined his approach to fitness in his book Return to Life Through Contrology (1945), however it was his method of exercise and not the name that caught on\u2014everyone seemed to prefer to call it \u201cPilates.\u201d He trained a number of students who applied his work to their own lives and became teachers of the Pilates method themselves. He maintained a fit physique throughout his life, and there are many photos that show his remarkable physical condition in his older years. He passed away in 1967, after living a remarkably long life for a man whose lungs and heart were compromised from the effects of rheumatic fever as a child of the 19th Century. He is said to have had a rough but kindly manner with his clients and a flamboyant personality. He was renowned for enjoying cigars, whiskey and women. He was often the life of the party and wore his habitual \u201cbikini bottom\u201d exercise briefs even on the streets of New York City. He has been described as an intimidating yet deeply committed teacher. Clara continued to teach and run the studio for another ten years after his death. The popularity of his work continues to spread, originally through his first generation teachers, referred to as the Pilates Elders, and eventually through their students, referred to as the second generation teachers, and now their students, and so on, and so on\u2026",

        "raw_content": "About the Lyme Disease Association\nVIEW: AFFILIATES / CHAPTERS / SUPPORTERS / PARTNERS / PROGRAM\nLDA is:\nAn all-volunteer national nonprofit, 501 (c)(3), dedicated to Lyme disease education, prevention, raising monies for research, and patient support.\nProvides 98% of raised funds to programs (no employees, no office overhead).\nPresents fully accredited medical conferences.\nFunds research nationally, research published in peer-review.\nProvides monies for children without insurance coverage for Lyme disease through LymeAid 4 Kids.\nProvides free literature, free information line, free doctor referrals.\nHas affiliates, chapters, partners, coast-to-coast.\nThe Lyme Disease Association (LDA), an organization which expanded its focus nationally about 7 years ago, is dedicated to Lyme disease education, prevention, and raising research dollars. About ninety-six cents of every dollar raised by the Lyme Disease Association has been used on programs. In its search for a cure for chronic Lyme, the LDA has already funded dozens of research projects coast to coast through researchers at institutions such as Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons, NJ Medical School (UMDNJ), Fox Chase Cancer Center, University of California, Davis, and University of Pennsylvania. Some of the research has been featured in peer-reviewed journals, such as Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), The Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, The Psychiatric Clinics of North America, Infection, Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, JSTBD, Journal of Clinical Microbiology, Journal of International Neuropsychological Society, and Infection and Immunology. Very significant genome work initially funded by LDA has shown that different strains of Borrelia have the ability to exchange genetic material among themselves, a trait greatly benefiting their survival and probably confounding the body\u2019s ability to eradicate the organism.\nTo coordinate the effort against Lyme disease, the LDA became affiliated with several other organizations, including: Time for Lyme, Inc. (CT), California Lyme Disease Association, Inc. (CA), Lyme Disease Network of New Jersey, Inc. (NJ), Lyme Association of Greater Kansas City, Inc. (KS/MO), Lyme Disease Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania, Inc. (PA), Oregon Lyme Disease Network, Inc. (OR), and Texas Lyme Disease Association (TX). The LDA is also a coalition partner with Stop Ticks On People (NY) and Connecticut Lyme Disease Coalition (CT). LDA currently has Chapters in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Rhode Island, Virginia, New York, and Massachusetts and has a support program in Manhattan (NY). The LDA together with its affiliates have raised about $5 million to fight Lyme disease.\nOn October 20, 2006, the LDA is sponsoring its 7th Lyme & Other Tick-Borne Diseases fully accredited medical conference in Philadelphia, again with Columbia University. The LDA\u2019s year 2000 conference was the first ever devoted to the problems of children with Lyme disease. In 2005, the LDA brought in 2 international experts to speak at the conference. LDA has videos available for sale from each of the conferences. LDA is a professional development provider for the State of New Jersey, and offers professional development hours on Lyme disease to teachers. It has in-serviced teachers and nurses in several states. Through its pamphlet titled The ABC\u2019s of Lyme Disease\u2500which is designed for parents and educators\u2500the LDA assists the families of children who have been diagnosed with Lyme disease. The LDA\u2019s LymeR Primer brochure is a compact document which lists symptoms, testing, tick pictures and information such as tick removal along with information on many other tick-borne diseases. LDA\u2019s Tickmark (bookmark) shows tick pictures, diseases ticks carry, relative size, and proper removal. LDA published a book, Lyme Disease Update: Science, Policy & Law, by Marcus Cohen, which presents the peer reviewed science behind chronic Lyme disease in a concise format, along with the steps that have been taken by activists and governments across the country who are fighting the war against the most prevalent vector-borne disease in this country today\u2500Lyme disease. In 2004, the LDA published Lyme Disease Is No Fun: Let's Get Well!, a book written especially for 8-12 year olds who have Lyme disease. It is written and edited by young women, Mary Wall and Colleen Smith, respectively, each of whom battled severe Lyme disease as a child, yet each is now a productive member of society.\nLymeAid 4 Kids is an LDA fund that helps families who do not have insurance coverage for Lyme disease for their children. The fund was initiated in conjunction with internationally acclaimed author Amy Tan, who supports the fund. The LDA has given out $36,000 worth of grants to date through this program to help children in 12 states and Canada.\nTime for Lyme, Inc. an LDA affiliate, worked with the Red Cross in Greenwich to develop a tick kit. The kits were developed into national tick kits which are now being sold nationally by the Red Cross (or through the LDA) and contain pointed tweezers and other paraphernalia helpful for tick removal. A card is included containing removal procedures and other facts along with LDA contact information.\nThe California Lyme Disease Association, Inc. an LDA affiliate, worked with LDA to develop and provide 2 free downloadable protection posters which can be used in schools and offices. It includes how to dress properly and how to remove ticks. LDA is now working with The Oregon Lyme Disease Network on a program which will provide information in the schools, including the LDA\u2019s Let\u2019s Get Well book. LDA also awarded several grants to its Kansas affiliate, Lyme Association of Greater Kansas City, Inc. toward its efforts to put Lyme literature in the schools in Missouri and Kansas. Additionally, it gave a grant for the Lyme Disease Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania to upgrade its Basics booklet, including physician review. LDA also provides grants to its Lyme Disease Network of NJ, Inc. affiliate to help maintain www.Lymenet.org and the LDA website, www.LymeDiseaseAssociation.org.\n\u201cUnfortunately, much more funding is needed for Lyme disease education and research, and we need a facility that concentrates its efforts on finding the answers to this Lyme enigma,\u201d said Pat Smith, president of the LDA. To that end, the LDA and its affiliate, Time for Lyme (TFL) are creating an endowed Lyme Disease Research Center at Columbia University (Center). Brian Fallon, MD, associate professor of clinical psychiatry and director of the current Lyme Disease Program at New York Psychiatric Institute, will be the Center\u2019s director. He is considered by many to be the leading expert on neuropsychiatric manifestations of Lyme disease. The LDA has funded some of his past research including the pilot study which provided him with data needed to obtain the $4.7 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for studying the effects of long-term Lyme disease treatment using state-of-the-art brain imaging, which has just been completed. Preliminary reports indicate the long term treatment was beneficial.",

        "raw_content": "Pressure from the Governor's office and from Representative Gephardt has prompted yet another effort to unravel our American heritage.\nTheir efforts have resulted in removal of the Confederate flags from the Confederate Memorial Historic Site near Higginsville and the Fort Davidson Historic Site near Pilot Knob. The flag flew over a graveyard at the Higginsville site, where it honored the memory of Missourians who had fought and died under it.\nGephardt claims that the flag is a \u201chateful and divisive symbol\u201d. He is not entirely wrong about this \u2013 thanks to revisionists, who have worked for decades to create class envy and division among Americans for their own political purposes.\nHowever, to hundreds of thousands of Americans, many of them Missourians, the Confederate flag is a symbol of their heritage. It is a symbol of a system of governance in which sovereign states abdicate a small amount of that sovereignty in order to form a Union of like-minded states so that union can tend to their common interests, like national defense.\nTo the vast majority of these Americans, racism and bigotry have nothing to do with their love of the flag. Instead, it represents part of the fabric of our culture.\nMissouri First strongly objects to the removal of the Confederate flag from any historic site. Furthermore, we must wonder about the state's commitment to our heritage and culture when it takes down American symbols and continues to fly the flag of the United Nations over public institutions, like the University of Missouri at Columbia.\nThe Governor's office has it backward. Missouri First calls for the removal of the U.N. Flag and restoration of the Confederate flags.",

        "raw_content": "April Fools\u2019 Day \u2013 Can\u2019t You Take a Joke?\nIn a conversation a few years ago, I used the phrase \u201cIt\u2019s not brain surgery.\u201d It was in the same spirit as \u201cIt\u2019s not rocket science.\u201d\nThe woman proceeded to lecture me on the fact that some people really have actual true life brain surgery and that I was being utterly insensitive to those struggling with this trial. I kind of know this, because one of my dear friends died of brain cancer, but never mind that.\nI could also point out that some people have been fired from \u201crocket science\u201d jobs and also might be sensitive to that phrase. So, in the spirit of April Fool\u2019s Day, please refrain from any references to brain surgery and/or rocket science.\nEarlier today I saw an insensitive prankster post that he was engaged \u2014 even though all his friends knew he wasn\u2019t dating anyone at all, let alone seriously. Apparently he is unaware that there are actual, living, breathing people who want to be engaged but aren\u2019t. This gesture probably sucked their guts out.\nToday a young friend of mine started a rumor that it was her birthday. Gullibly I wished her much joy, elation, and happiness \u2014 only to find I had been punked. Not only was I irreparably harmed by this shameless self-promotion, but think of all those people who were born on the unfortunate February 29th! They want to have a birthday every year, but they can\u2019t. (And we won\u2019t even get into the issues with orphans left on doorsteps and child refugees who don\u2019t even know their birthdays at all!)\nTiptoeing through the endless suffering and strife of people is an exhausting but essential act we all must undertake in the name of humanity. And showing that we care more than anyone else.\nFor the past two days, I\u2019ve seen an endless parade of images on social media, advising against more hurt and pain. The general theme is this:\nPlease don\u2019t make pregnancy a joke on April 1st.\nFor those on the journey of infertility or loss, pretend pregnancy announcements can be hurtful.\nIn the midst of my five miscarriages I joined an online support group for those who had the sad experience of enduring multiple miscarriages. Ultimately I left the group. It wasn\u2019t about healing and learning to be happy in spite of really awful stuff that no one wants to deal with. Rather, it was about (to be honest) wallowing in the same sorrows over and over again.\nIt wasn\u2019t just new people joining, being lifted by those who had worked through their grief. It was an enormous mass pity party. every. single. day. No one was giving sound advice on how to recover. Everyone was just weeping endlessly. It was not healthy.\nSometimes having a huge cry is good. Perhaps even days and months of huge cries. But then we change. We find good in the world. We see ways to grow or serve from our pain.\nSometimes the best medicine is rejoicing for other\u2019s good fortune (even when we want it for ourselves) and being able to laugh at things (even though there is a personal element). And sometimes it even means allowing other people to joke around about the subject that is near to your heart.\nTagged as: healing, holidays\nOregonian April 1, 2014, 1:33 pm\ni agree with this so much. i just get so tired of people who have to make their persona pain (we all have personal pain) the ruling factor for all human behavior. get over yourselves already.\nG. G. April 1, 2014, 6:00 pm\nI certainly don\u2019t wish to be hostile, but this is pretty harsh considering the severity of the problem. It\u2019s nice to know that you\u2019ve moved on, it truly is, but there are people learning that their dear children won\u2019t get to grow up on this very day. Should they move on straight away for the sake of a joke that isn\u2019t even remotely funny?\nI\u2019m not asking for anyone to tiptoe around people\u2019s sensitivities, I\u2019m only asking why it\u2019s perfectly acceptable to joke about matters that are serious because of the number on the calender. Would you say \u201chey, I have brain cancer!\u201d for the sake of an April Fool\u2019s joke? I seriously doubt it. Why is there a line between one serious medical issue and another?\nIt\u2019s perfectly acceptable to joke about things that are serious, because EVERYTHING is serious to someone. And if we start dictating what events can be joked about based on general pain, there is nothing left.\nAs for the \u201cHey, I have brain cancer\u201d idea, you\u2019ll notice that the jokes I referred to were (1) generally positive, happy things (being pregnant, getting engaged) and (2) were about themselves (not someone else).\nWhy would it be OK for someone to announce a real pregnancy but not a fake one? How is a pretend pregnancy hurtful to someone else?\nWish I had seen this yesterday so I could have linked to it on Facebook about a thousand times. The fake \u201csensitivity\u201d is so stultifying.\nLARISSA MERCER March 31, 2018, 8:17 pm\nI\u2019ve seen this crap all over facebook this week and just want to say, \u201cThank you! Thank you!

        "title": "Remembering What Grandpa Taught Me",
        "raw_content": "Remembering What Grandpa Taught Me\nM. Linford\ton June 15, 2007\nFor several years before he passed away, Grandpa was a sealer in the temple. I had the wonderful blessing of having him perform my sealing. I also was able to arrange for him to seal some good friends of ours who had been married for decades were ready to make their marriage eternal. I was thrilled when I found out that their sealing would take place when I could attend.\nAs I have found is always the case with sealings, the Spirit was strong. The love in the room was palpable. I was grateful to be there, happy to see Grandpa again in his white clothing. His voice, that of a skilled former actor and orator, resonated with love and power and wisdom and conviction.\nI am grateful for the counsel he gave. It\u2019s counsel I actually had heard several times before my own wedding, as my younger sister and many of my younger cousins found their spouses before I did. I also had the rare blessing of being able to have that counsel reviewed after my wedding, such as on this day. It was good to hear again the five Cs:\nHe always actually added a sixth C: Covenant. (I can still hear his raspy, deep voice saying, \u201cOH! And there\u2019s one more!\u201d) He talked about how the sealing ordinance is the pinnacle of all the covenants we make in the gospel, and about how our marriages will be stronger as we keep all the covenants we made prior to the covenant of marriage. I loved the way he tied all of those covenants together.\nBut the real lesson Grandpa taught me on this particular day was about the Atonement and about the scripture in 2 Nephi 25:23 that teaches us that \u201cit is by grace we are saved, after all we can do.\u201d\nAfter giving his usual counsel, he began with the powerful sealing ordinance. Just as he got to the end, he forgot something. It wasn\u2019t just an \u2018and\u2019 or a \u2018the.\u2019 He forgot something really important. And everyone (except maybe the couple at the altar) noticed it. You could feel it in the room. There was a silent but perceivable ripple of concern. Did he notice? (No.) Would it be OK? (After all, a key part of the ordinances is getting the words right, right?)\nMy husband and I just decided we would let Grandpa know what had happened. When we told him he missed something, he chuckled, \u2018Oh, did I?\u201d And then he chuckled again and went on his way.\nHere was the crowning ordinance of the gospel, performed in a holy temple, and Grandpa had goofed! Of course at some level I knew that everything would be OK. And even back then, I don\u2019t know that the full impact of the message he had taught by his example had hit me. But recently, as I have been struggling and wondering if there is enough grace in the Atonement for me and my mistakes and ruts and weaknesses (especially the ones that have an impact on the important elements of my life, like my family), both my husband and I recalled this experience independently, within a day of each other. (That\u2019s when I knew I wanted to write about it.) Now that I think about it, it was almost as if Grandpa was teaching from across the veil to remind me that if we are doing our best, the Lord\u2019s grace really is sufficient.\nI\u2019m sure there are many quotes that could reinforce the truths I hold to in my struggle toward becoming, but this one from President Ezra Taft Benson jumped out at me.\n[W]e must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope. Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible. The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant, as it were\u2026.\nBut we must be cautious as we discuss these remarkable examples. Though they are real and powerful, they are the exception more than the rule. For every Paul, for every Enos, and for every King Lamoni, there are hundreds and thousands of people who find the process of repentance much more subtle, much more imperceptible. Day by day they move closer to the Lord, little realizing they are building a godlike life. They live quiet lives of goodness, service, and commitment. They are like the Lamanites, who the Lord said were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost, and they knew it not. ? (3 Ne. 9:20; italics in original.)\nWe must not lose hope. Hope is an anchor to the souls of men. Satan would have us cast away that anchor. In this way he can bring discouragement and surrender. But we must not lose hope. The Lord is pleased with every effort, even the tiny, daily ones in which we strive to be more like Him. Though we may see that we have far to go on the road to perfection, we must not give up hope.\nThank you Grandpa, for the many things you taught me. I hope somehow you can know how your lessons are still helping me today. I love you!\nSharilee10 June 15, 2007, 11:09 pm\nBeautiful tribute to your grandfather, Michelle, and wonderful words of wisdom. Thank you for sharing.\nThanks, Sharilee. Kind of made me miss him. \ud83d\ude42\nThanks, Michelle. For me, this is the most beautiful and difficult lesson in the gospel.\neast-of-eden June 16, 2007, 8:03 am\nI really appreciate the fact that you mentioned that we are saved after all that we can do. I struggle with this a lot\u2013then I have to remind my self that I don\u2019t have to be perfect like sally-so-and-so, she is who she is, and I am who I am, and that is how the Lord views me. It takes alot of the stress off that I put on myself.\nI finally had a chance to read this, Michelle. Thank you. It\u2019s a wonderful addition.\nNext post: Church Light (& Casual)\nPrevious post: Stay-at-home Moms Get No Respect!",

        "raw_content": "Ron in a Million\nHow an American came to crack the German sense of humor\nSitting across from Ron Williams, I\u2019m completely enthralled. He is giving an impersonation of President John F. Kennedy: \u201cAsk not what your country can do for you. But what you can do for your country,\u201d he declares in a deep Massachusetts drawl. If it weren\u2019t for Williams\u2019 attire\u2014an Oakland A\u2019s baseball cap and warm-up jacket\u2014I\u2019d be certain I was sitting across from Kennedy himself. The interview has not started, yet I\u2019m completely drawn in by Ron Williams\u2019 persona\u2014a bold mix of humor, warmth, wit and obvious talent.\nRon Williams has been captivating audiences in Germany since his arrival more than 30 years ago, and has become one of the country\u2019s most popular and versatile entertainers. He has experience as a singer, song-writer, actor, stand-up comedian, television presenter, event-host and dubber. With more than 800 television appearances to his credit, not to mention countless other engagements, Williams excels whether in front of the camera, on stage or behind a microphone. The entertainer\u2019s tenacity, devotion to hard work, charismatic personality and relentless self-promotion have also contributed to his outstanding success.\nSo how did it all begin? How did the American GI-transplant break into the German entertainment business? \u201cI was willing to do what the Germans wouldn\u2019t do,\u201d he says. \u201cNobody here did voices or imitations back then.\u201d\nFrom there Williams moved on to political satire, again daring to do what others would not\u2014hitting the sensitive issue of racism head on. Williams\u2019 one-man comedy shows featured merciless impressions of politicians ranging from Ronald Reagan and Adolf Hitler, to regional German politicians of the day. \u201cI was politically incorrect, which made me very famous,\u201d says Williams.\nWilliams\u2019 desire to expose racism has its roots in personal experience\u2014painful incidents from his own past have moved him to confront intolerance in his performances. Ron Williams addresses these difficult issues with just the right balance of intelligence and humor\u2014dissolving taboos. Indeed, in October 2004, he was presented with the Bundesverdienstkreuz as a mark of the work he has done towards tackling racial discrimination in Germany.\nWilliams is currently starring in \u201cI Have a Dream,\u201d a musical in which he portrays the great American civil rights leader, Martin Luther King. The play, which is touring Germany, Austria and Switzerland, features biographical vignettes of King\u2019s private and public life and, after more than 220 shows, the production continues to be met with enthusiasm. Two performances are taking place near Munich\u2014the first on December 3, at the B\u00fcrgerhaus in Eching and the second on January 8, at the Veranstaltungsforum in F\u00fcrstenfeldbruck. For the full tour schedule, see www.kempf-theater.de/dream. Building on this momentum, Williams will continue with the subject of Martin Luther King\u2019s life, with a full musical production entitled \u201cKing!,\u201d which is due to open in autumn 2005.\nThat Williams has achieved such success might not come as a surprise to those who knew him as a child. Growing up in Oakland, California, just across the bay from San Francisco, he was a natural-born performer from the start. \u201cI just wanted to be on stage,\u201d he says. As a child he sang at family gatherings, and began winning local talent contests as a teenager. Williams was raised by his aunt and uncle, who were both musicians and who had toured Europe in the 1920s and 1930s. They encouraged him to develop his musical talents and in doing so, to see the world.\nHe, on the other hand, had different ideas. \u201cI was planning to be a lawyer and then a senator,\u201d says Williams. But, through a twist of fate, Williams was posted to Stuttgart as a US military journalist\u2014and it was not long before his family\u2019s wishes did indeed start to become reality.\nWhen asked about adjusting to life in Germany, Williams explains with a laugh, \u201cAt the beginning I started pretending I could speak German.\u201d Though perhaps not true at the time, he now speaks the language flawlessly and has made Germany his home, with both his adult children having been born and raised here.\nThat\u2019s not to say that Williams does not have some mixed feelings about having left his family, friends and country. But for him Germany is even more than a second home. It has provided the environment that has enabled him to pursue his work, cultivate his talent and fulfill his purpose. In Europe Williams has found a public that is prepared to hear about racial prejudice\u2014a message for which, he suspects, not all US audiences are ready. For this reason, as much as any other, Europe is where Ron Williams started out. And it is from here that he plans to spread his message to the world. <<<",

When you\u2019ve reached a certain level of success, it\u2019s only natural to want to expand your business.\nBut there\u2019s more to growing your business than meets the eye. It\u2019s not just the next step towards a bigger, more successful venture \u2014 in many ways, it\u2019s a lot like starting your business all over again.\nIf you\u2019re considering expanding your business by branching out, setting it up for franchising, or moving to a better location, there are some things you need to pay attention to first. After all, if you want your newest venture to be successful, you can\u2019t jump into it headfirst without testing the waters.\nIf you\u2019re looking to grow, consider the following in your business expansion strategy:\nIn many ways, expanding your business is like starting all over again. It might involve a new location or platform, a new target market, or a new facility or building. Each of these requirements for business expansion will come with a set of challenges you\u2019ll have to face. Of course, you\u2019ll have the benefit of bigger-than-starting capital and the experience you\u2019ve built so far, but it won\u2019t be a walk in the park. Make sure you do your research and prepare yourself for what\u2019s coming \u2014 starting with this list of things to take note of.\nLocation is a big factor to think about when choosing a place to set up. Pay attention to things like your industry, your market, the competition you\u2019ll have in that area, the space you\u2019ll need for your team, and the availability for connectivity and mobile signal. If you already have location options in mind, don\u2019t forget to consider these things to make the most of the space you have.\nAt this point, you and your team should be working as one unit. If you\u2019re prepared to expand, they should be, too. If they aren\u2019t yet, consider that maybe you and your team aren\u2019t on the same page \u2014 which can be dangerous if you choose to expand and they\u2019re not ready for the change.\nBring your team up to speed by aligning your goals with theirs. Help them understand that branching out isn\u2019t about more work for them, but about bigger opportunities for all of you.\nThis is a question that, if you haven\u2019t already, you really need to ask yourself before any big change in your business. Remember that all investments require you to shell out some capital in order for them to succeed. Especially with a move this big, you need to assess your budget and take note of whether or not you\u2019re in a stable enough place financially to take on a new venture. If you aren\u2019t, it\u2019s better to be safe than sorry, and hold off the risk until you\u2019re ready to take it on.\nHow will you reach your new market?\nKeeping loyal customers is important, but you expanded in order to get new targets. If you want to reach a new demographic of people, you need a plan set in motion even before you set up in a new location or space. Be it through announcements online or in physical form like posters, billboards or signs, make your presence known so customers can look forward to your arrival. Then when you\u2019ve already set up, your marketing efforts need to be tenfold at least for the first few months.\nHow will you stay connected?\nOne of the most important things to remember is to keep your new branch connected to your main one, or even to the other branches of your business. The best kind of connection is safe, simple, and affordable. It also allows you to manage bandwidth among your branches, so that you can allocate more data to the branches that need it most. With faster data access and updates, you also don\u2019t need to manually consolidate or regularly visit the branches you need connectivity for. It\u2019s the easiest way to get connected.\nIf you\u2019re looking to expand any time soon, don\u2019t forget to consider the questions above in your business expansion plan. It\u2019s not easy growing your business, but it\u2019s definitely worth it as it brings you even greater success!\nFor more startup tips and business insights, sign up to Globe myBusiness Academy today.",

        "title": "Coconut Oil FAQ - Nature's Liberty",
        "raw_content": "Coconut Oil FAQ\nCoconut oil is a liquid substance extracted from the meat of a mature coconut. Since it is a very stable substance with a long shelf life, it is used around the world as a safe and flavorful cooking oil, often substituting butter. Many believe coconut oil offers a multitude of health benefits, such as boosting the body\u2019s natural metabolism and immune system. While it is historically popular in tropical countries, millions of people throughout the world are including this versatile oil in their cooking efforts.\nIs a coconut a nut or a fruit?\nCoconuts are classified as fibrous, one-seeded drupes. A drupe is a fruit with a hard, stony covering enclosing the seed (similar to a peach or olive). Although a coconut does meet the official definition of a nut (a one-seeded fruit), it is not considered a true nut because its seeds are released when the fruit wall decays or is eaten.\nHow long does coconut oil stay fresh?\nCoconut oil has an average shelf life of approximately two (2) years, making it one of the longest-lasting unrefined cooking oils available.\nShould I refrigerate coconut oil after opening?\nThe decision of whether or not to store coconut oil in your refrigerator is really based on your personal preference. If you choose to keep it in a pantry or cabinet, rest assured it will not spoil, even if it becomes a liquid. However, storing coconut oil at room temperature does offer the advantage of easier scooping and spreading.\nIs my coconut oil supposed to be liquid?\nCoconut oil has a melting point of 76\u02da F. If you store it outside the refrigerator, it may turn into a liquid. However, coconut oil has a very high stability.and doesn\u2019t break down as easily as olive oil and other cooking oils.Regardless of how many times it transitions from solid to liquid states, coconut oil stays fresh and effective for an average shelf life of two years. Remember, you do not have to store your coconut oil in the refrigerator. In fact, some people prefer to store their coconut oil container in a cabinet or on a shelf to maintain a smooth, creamy texture that\u2019s perfect for spreading.\nDoes coconut oil turn into a solid in my body after I consume it?\nNo. Coconut oil is liquid at 76\u02da F and your core body temperature is 98\u02da F. Because of the low melting point, coconut oil remains a liquid and is digested very quickly and easily. After it is absorbed into the bloodstream, the oil is broken down and converted into energy.\nHow is coconut oil made?\nThere are two main techniques used to produce coconut oil:\nWet process: The fruit is removed from the husk, moistened with water, and then squeezed to produce a mixture of coconut milk and oil. The oil naturally separates from the milk within 12-24 hours. There are other methods that can be used (such as heating, cooling, or centrifugal force) to expedite the separation. The wet process is often used by those who make coconut oil at home.\nDry process: The coconut kernel is removed, shredded, and dried, after which a cold expeller press is used to extract the virgin coconut oil.\nIs coconut oil healthy?\nMany nutritionists and chefs believe coconut oil to be a very healthy alternative to butter and other fatty cooking additives. In countries that consume large amounts of coconut fruit, including the Philippines, India, and most Pacific islands, there are significantly fewer cases of high cholesterol, heart disease, obesity, high blood pressure, and other common ailments associated with high fat consumption. Coconut oil has also been shown to boost metabolism, which may promote weight loss. Many devotees also claim the oil helps to raise energy levels, curb cravings for addictive substances, and alleviate allergy symptoms.\nAnother benefit of coconut oil lies in its high stability level. When stored in the proper environment, it can remain stable for many months, or even years. It can also be used as a nourishing skin cream or lotion.\nHow much should I take each day?\nMost nutritionists recommend a daily dosage of approximately three tablespoons. Coconut oil should be used as part of a healthy, balanced diet, which includes lots of fruits and vegetables.\nWhen cooking, coconut oil can be stirred into oatmeal, soups, and stews. For sauteing, heat coconut oil in a pan for a few minutes and then add your favorite vegetables or use the hot oil to fry fish, potatoes, chicken, or pork. Coconut oil can also be used in baking as replacement for butter or other oils. We suggest you heat the coconut oil first, and then measure the appropriate amount of oil called for by each recipe. Lastly, for those energy junkies, try coconut oil as an ingredient in your next fruit or protein smoothie.\nWhat are the benefits of using coconut oil?\nThere are tons of uses and benefits. See the \u201c67 Proven Uses for Coconut Oil\u201d flyer on this website in the Coconut Oil listing. Coconut oil is a naturally occurring food that many generations of people have used in their daily diets. Coconut oil is not a new fad, trend, or something cooked up in a lab somewhere. Americans used coconut oil regularly before the start of World War II. When availability in the U.S. became scarce, they switched to other oils and the popularity of coconut oil waned. In recent years, there has been another surge in the demand for coconut oil, as much research is being done on plant based essential fatty acids. Virgin coconut oil is trans fat free, vegetarian, and tastes like coconuts!\nWhat is the difference between coconut oil, coconut milk, and coconut water?\nCoconut water is harvested by cracking open young, immature coconuts. The liquid that easily comes from the center of the nut is sweet and ready to drink as coconut water. As a coconut matures, the coconut water leads to the formation of meat on the inside of the coconut walls. This is the familiar picture of a coconut that most Americans recognize. There is very little coconut water left at maturation and the little bit that is left has lost its nice taste.\nCoconut milk is a thick, creamy liquid extracted from the grated meat of the coconut. When coconut milk is settled, coconut cream rises to the top and is easily removed. There are two types of coconut milk: thick and thin.\nCoconut oil is extracted through drying the coconut meat, shredding the meat, adding a bit of water, and then using a cold expeller press to collect the oil. This is the common and preferred way to extract virgin coconut oil.\nCan coconut oil be used as a hair conditioner?\nYes, people use coconut oil as an excellent conditioner for their hair. It can also be used as a soothing, aromatic substitute for skin cream or lotion.\nCan I safely order it over the internet?\nYes, your credit card information is completely secure and private and we guarantee that we won\u2019t enroll you in any \u201cautomatic billing\u201d programs like some other companies. In fact, we do not even see or store your credit card information when you order. All transactions are processed safely via PayPal. Other companies may engage in highly questionable business practices, including automatic billing. These programs will repeatedly charge your credit card, sometimes without your knowledge.

Not only is it a game of skill, it is also very complicated. There are some people that play chess for money, but in my expert opinion that is all just a big waste of time. Why?\nImagine if you were given the opportunity to win a million dollars in cash with the flip of a coin. Do you think you would be ready to do that at a moment's notice? Of course, anyone could do that, because the game is simple.\nNow imagine another hypothetical scenario, if someone were to offer the opportunity to win the same million dollars at a game of chess, playing against a grandmaster. Well, now you have a situation that can only be solved by a lifetime of study and practice.\nOf course, there's nothing wrong with studying chess, if this is your passion, but form a practical point of view, how is the money that you win at chess any different form the money that you win with the flip of a coin? In the practical world all money is the same and once it's in your wallet you have no idea where it's been or where it came from, or what it took to earn it (or win it).\nSo, in a practical world -in a world inhabited by reasonable people - there is no practical value in earning the same money the hard way.\nThere are some games that are a combination of chance and skill. Poker is said to be one of those games. However, as we've already examined in the article Poker is a Game of Chance, we see that the skill factor is just a theoretical oddity that can be completely eliminated.\nThat brings us to the next point, The Simplification of Poker.\nRemember, in the long run chance will always beat any skill, because the element of chance is more powerful.",

She couldn\u2019t live with all the reminders surrounding her, so she ran.\nCruz Felix found a new home. A place where he could get his head on straight, train, and fight match after match toward the end goal: the championship in Las Vegas. It\u2019s the one thing in his life he wants more than anything, and it\u2019s all in the name of his deceased father.\nUntil Layla returns home. Her dad owns the gym; he\u2019s the sole reason Cruz is fighting again.\nThe attraction is immediate, even though both of them are drowning in their own misery and secrets.\nThe thing about secrets are they always find a way out the darkness and have the power to destroy.\nHoly smokes what a start to H.J. Bellus\u2019s MMA fighter series! If you like a smoking hot alpha and feisty heroin then this is a must read. I have never read this author before and now I must go read everything she has written.\nCruz and Layla meet on the worst day of Layla\u2019s life and he is there for her every day after that. Layla is a feisty, sassy and a take no nonsense lady. She has been knocked down in life and has some trust and abandonment issues, but Cruz is just the guy to get her past her issues. She meets Cruz at the hospital after her abuela has died and is devastated because she has raised Layla after her mother abandoned her. Cruz is a MMA fighter in her dad\u2019s gym, but he is so much more. He is a total alpha with a soft heart and will do anything for Layla. Cruz has his own demons and he must learn to trust Layla and have no secrets because that is one thing that will ruin everything.\nI loved that this book started out as a friendship and grew into so much more. The chemistry is off the charts, but it is so much more than just physical. There is no drama about how they feel about each other, but there are a few trust issues that they need to overcome. They have no doubt that they are \u201cit\u201d for each other and love that they just knew that. They do have outside forces trying to destroy them, but will they be strong enough together to get their happily ever after?\nCruz pulled me in from the first chapter and I could not put it down until I found out how it ended, and I was not disappointed. It had passion, humor and suspense. Everything you need to have a fabulous book! I cannot wait for the rest of this series.",

Climate change constitutes a major threat to the Earth\u2019s environment and to the well-being of people in all nations and there is a substantial body of evidence that global climate change is driven by human-induced causes.\nGeographers carry out integrative research on human-environment relations and interactions that has helped inform this worldwide scientific consensus. In 2006, the AAG adopted a resolution urging the U.S. Government to take a leadership role in addressing climate change, support open scientific debate about the issue, and develop sound policies to attenuate greenhouse gas emissions. Accordingly, we are gravely discouraged by the Administration\u2019s decision to move in the opposite direction.\nGlobal climate change will not reverse itself without serious, sustained leadership from every nation in the world community. Its impacts on human health, world hunger, international conflicts, and macroeconomics will steadily grow unless meaningful action is taken to lessen its profound effects. The United States is a major contributor to worldwide carbon dioxide emissions and today\u2019s announcement is a significant blow to efforts to stem the tide of climate change.\nView AAG\u2019s Policy Action page.\nclimate change, Paris Climate Agreement\n\u00ab AAG Grants and Awards Program\nAAG Seeks Nominations for 2018 Vice President, National Councilors, Student Councilor \u2013 Deadline Extended to Aug. 15! \u00bb",

The students competed in teams of three against 3000 other students from 40 different nations. The competition involved debating and answering a variety of questions on the theme of \u2018A World Unbound.\u2019 Our students worked well together; some of our teams winning all of their debates, on motions about leadership, technology and freedom. Our students also took the lead in some of the public debates, contributing their own thoughts and questions.\nThe competition itself was great fun, but the students also enjoyed visiting Kuala Lumpur and the Scholar\u2019s Ball. Highlights included Dorna Fatin taking to the stage to give a 5 minute stand-up comedy routine and Joseph Anhorn breakdancing on stage! Many of our students came away with medals for their efforts in the 4 competition elements, but the \u2018Top Alpaca\u2019 award goes to Ahsab Chowdhury who was 2nd in the Collaborative Writing, a great achievement considering he was up against more than 1500 scholars from around the World.

        "raw_content": "Korean Economy Continues to Recover, Backed by Strong Exports\nDeputy Prime Minister Kim Dong-yeon will head a Korean delegation to 51st annual ADB Board of Governors meeting\n25(Wed), Apr, 2018\nDeputy Prime Minister and Minister Kim Dong-yeon of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance shakes hands with US Secretary of Treasury Steven Mnuchin during their meeting in Washington, DC on April 22. (Photo: MOSF).\nThe 51st Annual Meeting of ADB's Board of Governors, which is slated for May 3-6 at the Asian Development Bank (ADB) headquarters in Manila, will bring together over 3,000 participants, including finance ministers, central bank governors, and private sector representatives.\nDeputy Prime Minister and Minister Kim Dong-yeon of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance (MOSF) will head a Korean delegation to the annual meetings. The delegation includes the governor of the Bank of Korea and heads and representatives of commercial banks, including Shinhan Financial Group, Kookmin Financial Group, Hana Financial Group, NH Financial Group, Woori Bank, Korea Development Bank, IBK, and Korea Eximbank as well as representatives of other financial institutions and the financial industry, including the Korea Financial Investment Association.\nThe Annual Meeting of the ADB Board of Governors is an opportunity to provide guidance on ADB administrative, financial, and operational directions. The meetings provide opportunities for member governments to interact with ADB staff, nongovernment organizations (NGOs), media, and representatives of observer countries, international organizations, academe and the private sector. ADB\u2019s annual meetings have become a premier forum for the discussion of economic and social development issues in Asia and the Pacific.\nThe meeting will look at global and regional issues affecting development in Asia and the Pacific, while exploring how ADB and its development partners can work together toward a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable region by 2030, it said.\nVarious other events will be held during the Annual Meeting in Manila, including seminars focused on addressing the gender gap through women\u2019s entrepreneurship and economic empowerment; the private sector's increasing role in meeting Asia's huge infrastructure needs, estimated at $1.7 trillion annually until 2030; new technologies in finance; investing in community-led solutions for climate and disaster resilience; and promoting inclusive growth through inter-subregional cooperation. Meanwhile, the Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank\u2019s (AIIB) third Annual Meeting will be held in Mumbai, India on June 25- 26.\nKorean Economy in Slow Recovery\nThe Korean economy continues to grow thanks to the private sector's rising consumption, but the overall pace of the Korean economy is limited by the weakening of economic growth momentum from exports and a decline in investment.\nInter-Korean summit talks and subsequent summit talks between North Korea and the United States will take place on April 27 and May, respectively, under the so-called Olympic detente, which was launched during the 2019 PyeonChang Winter Olympic Games in February.\nThe summit talks are forecast to greatly ease geopolitical risks on the Korean Peninsula, which will likely have a positive impact on economic entities, such as the improving of consumer sentiment, investments and consumption. In addition, if the current government\u2019s policies, including the improving of household income, a reduction of working hours, and the improving of the quality of employment pay off, some experts said, they are expected to expand the private sector\u2019s consumption, riding on a rise in household disposable income.\nDPM Kim Discusses Currency Issues with IMF Managing Director and U.S. Treasury Secretary\nDeputy Prime Minister Kim embarked on a visit to the United States on April 19 to participate in G20 Finance Ministers and Central Governors and International Monetary Fund Committee (IMFC) Spring Meetings, to be held in Washington until April 21.\nDPM Kim is to meet with IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde and U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin respectively. Currency issues, including how to improve transparency of the government\u2019s action in foreign exchange markets are expected to be taken up as topics during the meetings.\nThe United States has been demanding the Korean government to make public details of its foreign exchange market intervention. A currency report issued by the U.S. Treasury on April 13 called for Korea\u2019s disclosing of details of actions taken by currency authorities in Korea in a transparent and timely fashion. The Korean government maintains a principle of intervention to smooth foreign exchange market volatilities, but does not disclose it.\nAsked whether Korea was considering disclosing details of its current market intervention at a meeting with reporters on April 16, DPM Kim said Korea has currency sovereignty, and decisions would be made under a principle of keeping currency sovereignty.\nDuring the trip, DPM Kim will meet with President Luis Alberto Moreno Mejia of the Inter-American Development Bank to discuss on youth technology volunteering projects. He will also have a meeting with President Jim Yong Kim of the World Bank Group to discuss ways of the group\u2019s hiring Korean manpower. He will also have meeting with ranking officials of Moody\u2019s, Fitch Group and Standard & Poor\u2019s to ask them to give Korea stable national ratings.\nMinisterial Meeting on Economy\nDeputy Prime Minister Kim presided over the 5th Ministerial Meeting on the Economy on April 16 and discussed ways to achieve \u201cgrowth through innovation.\u201d DPM Kim also touched on the issues concerning job markets and corporate restructuring at the beginning of his keynote speech. The following is a summary of Deputy Prime Minister Kim\u2019s keynote address:\n\u201cJob markets have been sluggish as the economy added a little more than 100,000 jobs in February and March, respectively. Furthermore, young adult job growth plummeted in March from 44,000 in February to 4,000 in March. This slowdown in the job market, contrary to the view that the minimum wage increase is to blame, is mainly due to the industrial restructuring underway, as well as a high base effect from a year ago. Employment by small businesses improved in March compared to the previous month.\n\u201cTo improve job markets, particularly those for young adults, the government has submitted the 2018 supplementary budget plan to the National Assembly, along with a tax revision bill. We expect the supplementary budget to successfully support projects designed to create young adult jobs and stimulate local economies hit by restructuring, and ease young adult unemployment by 1-2 percentage points this year.\n\u201cI ask related ministries to work hard to support the passage of the budget bill, and at the same time request all legislators and members of political parties, whether they are from the ruling party or opposition parties, help the bill passed at the National Assembly as soon as possible.\u201d\nProduction and Consumption Grow Due to Strong Exports\nThe Korean economy continues to recover, backed by strong exports, the MOSF said in a news release. Mining and manufacturing production, consumption and facility investment continued to rise.\nThe economy added 112,000 jobs year-on-year in March as manufacturing and construction continued to be strong and the service sector employment rebounded.\nThe young adult unemployment rate rose from 11.3 to 11.6% YoY. Consumer price inflation was 1.3 percent in March, rising even more slowly compared with 1.4 percent in the previous month, due to low agricultural product prices and public utility rates, as well as steady petroleum product prices.\nIndustrial production stayed flat in February, up 1.2% MoM. Mining and manufacturing production increased for the second consecutive month, up 0.9% MoM due to strong automobiles and semiconductors. Service output stayed flat, 0.8% MoM as transportation & storage services declined and meanwhile wholesale & retail and healthcare & social welfare services increased.\nRetail sales increased in February, 1.3% MoM, backed by semi-durable goods, such as clothing, and nondurable goods, such as food. Facility investment rose for the fourth consecutive month in February, up 5.4% MoM due to strong investment in transportation equipment. Construction completed fell, down 3.8% MoM, despite an increase in civil engineering works, due to a drop in building construction.\nIn February, the cyclical indicator of the coincident composite index rose 0.1 points from the previous month to 99.9, and the cyclical indicator of the leading composite index fell 0.2 points to 100.6.\nExports increased for the 17th consecutive month in March (up 6.1%, y-o-y) backed by strong major export items, such as semiconductors, amid recovering global economies.\nIn March, KOSPI rose after fluctuating amid concerns over North related risks and the spread of protectionism, and the dollar-won exchange rate fell as concerns eased over North related risks. Government bond yields fell, despite the Fed\u2019s rate hike, due to rising concerns about trade conflicts between the US and China.\nHousing prices increased at a slower rate in March (up 0.20% \u22a5 up 0.12%, m-o-m) as housing price growth slowed down in the Seoul metropolitan area. Jeonse (lump-sum deposits with no monthly payments) prices continued to fall (down 0.09% \u22a5 down 0.13%, m-o-m) as the prices in Seoul\u2019s southern districts slipped.\nThe economy is expected to stay on a recovery path backed by improving global economies. However, unemployment has been rising and external risks linger, such as trade issues and Fed\u2019s interest rate hikes.\nThe government will strengthen its risk management, and will continue to work to improve the job market as well as the real economy through the 2018 economic policies and its recent measures aimed at increasing young adult jobs and stimulating the local economy.",

        "raw_content": "Being a female engineering student\nFemale engineering majors discuss the pros and cons of entering a male-dominated field\nAlexis Montague, a mechanical engineering major with a concentration in biomedical engineering is the president of t\nAt UNC Charlotte, the William States Lee College of Engineering is an attractive program.\nFor starters, most classes are taught on the Charlotte Research Institute campus, well-known for its alluring academic buildings and state-of-the-art facilities. In addition, most students can graduate in four years and move on to a hiring field. Plus, an engineer\u2019s paycheck is fair.\nIn fall 2016, UNC Charlotte recorded that the college\u2019s undergraduate population was 3,107. Less than 400 of those students are female. Why?\nResearch shows that engineering is a field which women don\u2019t gravitate toward. Studies suggest that girls divert from math and science at a young age. In 2015, Microsoft found that 11-year-old girls interested in STEM subjects quickly lost interest by age 15.\nThe following are students in UNC Charlotte\u2019s engineering program. Many of whom are leaders of females in their major.\nAlexis Montague. Photo by Katelynn Pennington.\nAlexis Montague\nNo one introduced Alexis Montague to the possibility of being an engineer. It was an interest she found herself. Even when she saw an advertisement for the field, it always featured men.\nNow, Montague is a mechanical engineering major with a concentration in biomedical engineering and is president of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) at UNC Charlotte.\n\u201cI was always a hands-on type of girl. I would always take things apart and put them together,\u201d Montague said.\nHer mom enrolled her in engineering camps which exposed her to civil engineering but she wasn\u2019t sure about the different types until she did research online. That\u2019s how she found her major.\nMontague thinks females stray away from her major because of the unfamiliarity.\n\u201cI don\u2019t get to see a lot of people that look like me or other girls within the classroom studying,\u201d she said.\nBut that\u2019s not the only con. Stereotypes play a large role.\n\u201cI feel like sometimes people don\u2019t take you seriously. They think that \u2018oh, she\u2019s just going to be here for the first two years and then she\u2019s going to transfer out into another major.\u2019 I feel like sometimes they think we\u2019re not built to learn,\u201d she said.\nMontague has seen why women stray away from engineering.\n\u201cI\u2019ve heard multiple girls say \u2018when I was in high school, I thought about maybe majoring in engineering but somebody told me it would be too hard,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m just like \u2018who told you that would be too hard for you?\u2019\u201d\nThose challenges have helped Montague grow. Today, she describes herself as someone who has thicker skin and a stronger voice than before.\nAlshraefarana Alharthi. Photo by Greyson Nance.\nAlshraefarana Alharthi\nAs a high school student, Alshraefarana Alharthi\u2019s teachers suggested she pursue a field outside of science and math. Her aunt told her engineering was difficult and she wouldn\u2019t make it. Even her grandfather, someone she describes as pro-education, was shocked when she told him she was considering engineering.\nThis spring, Alharthi will graduate with a major in systems engineering after serving as president of the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) at UNC Charlotte.\n\u201cI\u2019m defying everything that everybody thought I was going to be,\u201d she said.\nAlharti was encouraged by her parents to take on a challenging major that would lead to a stable career and income, specifically engineering, medical or law.\n\u201cMy mom raised us saying that if we weren\u2019t better than she is then she didn\u2019t do a good job,\u201d Alharthi said. \u201cShe\u2019s a biochemist so it\u2019s really hard to beat that.\u201d\nAlharti doesn\u2019t think she faces challenges as a woman in engineering.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s even something better. I bring in a different mindset than the guys do,\u201d Alharthi said. \u201cEspecially when you\u2019re in a group of five and you\u2019re the only female, the Powerpoints definitely look better.\u201d\nShe likes to be challenged, under pressure and on a deadline.\nTo other women interested in engineering, Alharthi says they should try it and never give up.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re 50 percent on the border of \u2018should I do it or not\u2019 just stick to it\u2026 If you don\u2019t like it, don\u2019t go through it because you won\u2019t be happy\u2026 If you\u2019re just scared, if that\u2019s the reason, just power through it and it will all work out.\u201d\nGiana Avent. Photo by Katelynn Pennington.\nGiana Avent\nRaised by a single mom, Giana Avent spent a lot of her childhood in her mother\u2019s mechanical engineering office.\nEntering college, Avent jumped right into the engineering program at Charlotte, joined organizations and loved the community, so much so that she added civil engineering onto her construction management major.\nAlthough Avent does see mostly positives, she has noticed differences between herself and her male peers, especially with group work.\n\u201cI might be one of two girls. Me and her are gonna get together and we\u2019ll find two other guys,\u201d she said.\nThe challenge is putting yourself out but once you do, she says, everything gets better.\n\u201cYou do meet a lot of good people\u2026 I strive to look for more women. I\u2019ve met great friends. We all have the same aspirations, same dreams,\u201d Avent said.\nAs for advice, Avent recommends students build a support system, cut out what they don\u2019t need to have better time management, know their limit when it comes to credit hours, and most importantly, love what you do.\nSGA Update \u2013 Sept. 4",

        "raw_content": "Gojira Release Video for New Track \u2018Stranded\u2019\nGojira have just released the first single from their upcoming album, Magma. The new track, \u201cStranded,\u201d has been accompanied by a music video, which combines the band's performance with some bizarre imagery.\nMagma is Gojira\u2019s first album since L\u2019Enfant Sauvage brought the French metal band a new level of popularity in 2012. Ever since, fans have been anxiously awaiting Gojira\u2019s next work, the first part of which has debuted today.\n\u201cStranded\u201d utilizes Gojira\u2019s signature chugging and \u201celephants marching\u201d rhythm style along with some experimental pitch-shifted guitar. The song is driven largely by the Duplantier brothers, frontman Joe and drummer Mario, with a little spotlight shown on bassist Jean-Michel Labadie after the first chorus of \u201cStranded.\u201d\nMagma was largely influenced by the tragic death of Joe and Mario Duplantier\u2019s mother, who passed away last year. \"When you read Joe's lyrics, for me, I cry right away,\" Mario tells Rolling Stone. \"They're very deep and to the point. No bulls--t. We recycle our sadness and depression in the music.\"\n\"Mario was recording drums, and I was playing guitar with him, just trying to help him know where he's at in the song, and both of us would start crying at the same time,\" Joe adds.\nCheck out Gojira\u2019s new video for \u201cStranded\u201d above! Gojira\u2019s sixth studio album, Magma, will hit stores on June 17 and is now available for pre-order. The album artwork has been revealed below.\nGojira, Magma Album Art\nSource: Gojira Release Video for New Track \u2018Stranded\u2019",

Mack, who started as Local Knight of our Power On RP board, has been with us for nearly 2 years, and has been a truly excellent mod and all-around awesome guy. However, he has decided that he no longer wishes to be mod, and is resigning. He will not be leaving the forums completely, however. The reason for his resignation is unclear, but I know he has his reasons. Here's to one of the best mods this forum has ever seen, Mackormoses.\nMackormoses ~ 10/13/07 - 7/30/09\nRe: A resignation.\nAh, dangit.\nFarewell, Mack. You were a good moderator.\nGodspeed, Mack. Stay active.\n...what, no. ;___;\nYou were an awesome moderator. At least you're staying.\nAlthough I can't say I didn't see this coming, it is still shocking to see you go, Mack. I remember when we first met back on Oldsider... who'd have thought we'd be here now?\nGoodnight, travel well, you crazy son of a gun.\nTo the wise man who brought me here, you'll always be remembered as a MOD. Thankfully, this wise man will not be leaving us, not anytime soon.\nNo, seriously Mack. I respect you to no end, and I've always got your back, and I do understand you have your reasons...\nBut I don't think this is the right thing to do. You said yourself for this forum to work out it's members have to work together, and you're not just a member, you're a leader. If a leader quits, the followers will soon.. well.. follow.\nWhatever your reasons may be, I'm asking you to reconsider. If not, oh well. I still respect and love ya bro.\nWell, this sucks. It's kind of like a kick in the balls to everyone here who did appreciate the hard work that Mack put into this place.\nDespite how serious and corporate he could act, it was all to try and make this place not fall into a pit of vicious and venomous snakes. He tried his best. Unfortunately he failed, because most of you are moronic, annoying, and simply uncaring of this place.\nAll in all, I'm sad that Mack had to go, and with a reputation like his, it's like staring death into the face without him on the job.\nI'm seriously disappointed in all of you. Even if the morons of this place weren't the entire reason for his resignation, it still doesn't excuse that it was still a factor. This place needs change. If we stay the same way, well, why bother coming to this place? It's going to be a ghost town. A ghost town of lost dreams.\nThis is unfortunate, but if it's for his own reasons, i'm okay with it.\nThis forum and community is starting to fall...\nWe need to bounce back, and soon.\nWell I can't say I knew you very well but I respected and admired you Mack you were one of the driving forces of this forum, I hope you have an awesome life. I agree with Superkool though this place need to change because right now... well it's poopty. So guy let's take this leave as a sign to change.\nJuly 30, 2009, 06:16:40 AM #10 Last Edit: July 30, 2009, 12:34:13 PM by JNFS2014\n;__________________________;\nOh well, Mack, I hope you have a good life outside of NSFCD. I have nothing else to say.\n~Mack Fanboy\nEdit: Oh, you're just decreasing activity. Still sad, though.\nThirteenthorder\nOh this is ridiculous, though you (Mack) never do anything without sufficent merit. Talk to you on GTalk D=\nWhen you're not lookin'...\nYou did a great job mack.\nnice to hear you're not leaving the forum\nAnd that makes two.\nThis place seems to be losing quite a lot of staff, isn't it? And just because Mack is stepping down from his position, it doesn't mean he still can't lead. Just as a member he can draw people in with his charisma. Besides, two years is a long time, and everyone deserves a rest.\nThis case is slightly different than VaatixGanon's, who left completely. Mack is still going to be around, still helping, still posting, still contributing. He's just not going to have his nice staff color and title. Good job being a Mod, Mack, from what I hear you were very good, and I hope you continue being a loyal and witty contributer to this site.\nI remember him being fun in some old chat threads.\nTis a shame.",

        "raw_content": "My first breath underwater might as well have been my first breath. In June 2015, wide-eyed and wobbly, I knelt on the sand carpet of Florida\u2019s Lake Denton as small, friendly bluegill fish bumped into my mask and wetsuit. Careful not to hold my breath (a cardinal rule of diving), I looked around this new world I was reborn into and imagined swimming alongside green sea turtles, massive manta rays and speckled whale sharks \u2013 animals I\u2019d only seen in aquariums. The possibility of meeting these creatures face-to-face and exploring underwater caves, bright coral reefs and thick kelp forests was, and still is, one of my most exciting prospects. Since that first dive, I\u2019ve completed two more levels of certifications and dove in some of the most interesting spots in Florida, like sinkholes, an aquarium in Disney\u2019s EPCOT theme park and surrounded by hammerhead sharks off the coast of Jupiter.\nWhat drew me to scuba diving was my overwhelming sense of curiosity. I\u2019m the kind of person who is constantly looking for something new to try or somewhere new to go. My dad has been scuba certified for about 40 years, and that, mixed with my ingrained love and appreciation of Florida\u2019s waters, inspired my yearning to experience life beneath the surface.\nDiving is something I would encourage every person to try, because it is an activity that has many interesting benefits to scuba diving. One is that you get to develop your communication skills. When you\u2019re underwater, you can\u2019t talk to anyone. It\u2019s like one big game of charades. You have to rely on a mix of hand signals, pointing and acting out to convey what you\u2019re trying to tell your fellow divers. There are a few basic universal hand signals, like a thumbs up for indicating that you\u2019re surfacing or crossing your arms to let others know you\u2019re cold, but when your buddy doesn\u2019t know the signals or wants to convey something else, you get really good at nonverbal communication. You could also just use an underwater slate and write everything down, but where\u2019s the fun in that?\nDiving in the aquarium at Epcot. This is one of my favorite dives, because people can interact with you on the other side of the glass from an observation deck or a restaurant that looks out into the aquarium.\nAnother benefit, and one of my favorite reasons to dive, is the serenity and lack of noise. When you\u2019re underwater, all you typically hear is your breathing and your bubbles. Of course there\u2019s a lot to be conscious of on a dive, like how much air you have left in your tank or whether you\u2019re swimming in the right direction, but it\u2019s mostly a time to discover fun and beautiful parts of the natural world and reflect. I\u2019ve done some of my best meditation at the bottom of the ocean, and I\u2019ll always say that to keep your head above water, sometimes you have to go underwater.\nAnd finally, diving is just cool. The Earth is about 70 percent water, so if you\u2019re not exploring what\u2019s below the surface, you\u2019re not even getting a third of what the beautiful world has to offer. Seeing marine creatures up close and in their natural habitat is something not everyone has the opportunity to do. Being out in the open ocean, not being able to see shore and back-rolling off of a boat into the unknown may sound scary, but the rush of not knowing just adds to how awesome the entire experience is. You have no idea what\u2019s under you \u2014 it could be a tiger shark or barracuda; it could be a goliath grouper that\u2019s half the size of your boat or a green sea turtle. Or it could be nothing. The key is to just go with it. Most divers know the \u201cvicious predators\u201d of the ocean won\u2019t be too interested in eating them, anyway.\noandbmagazine October 12, 2016 alexander springs, alexander springs scuba diving, benefits of scuba diving, diving, epcot, scuba diving, travel\nOne thought on \u201cWhat Lies Beneath\u201d\n\ud83d\udc4d\ud83d\udc4d\ud83d\udc4c\ud83d\udc4c\ud83d\udc40\ud83d\udc40\ud83d\udc46\nPrevious Previous post: I Didn\u2019t Know I Was Being Too Blunt\nNext Next post: When Love Discovered Me",

        "raw_content": "The part of the story that people know, if they know the story at all, is iBash.\nIn 1999, a streaming video startup called Pixelon threw itself a massive coming out party. Dubbed iBash, it was held at the MGM Grand Las Vegas and included an impressive roster of talent: Kiss, Tony Bennett, Sugar Ray, Faith Hill, Dixie Chicks, Natalie Cole, LeAnn Rimes, The Brian Setzer Orchestra, and The Who (reunited just for this show). David Spade and Cindy Margolis hosted. It cost somewhere in the range of $10 million to $15 million, a healthy chunk for a company that had only raised $30 million.\nBut iBash wasn\u2019t just for the lucky attendees at the MGM. It was going to be broadcast live to a worldwide audience using Pixelon\u2019s own streaming video technology. Internet users all around the globe would see a kick-ass party and discover how great the company\u2019s technology was at the same time. And all that attention would serve as a giant boost for Pixelon\u2019s eventual IPO.\nAs it turned out, there was one pretty large problem at the center of this plan: Pixelon\u2019s software didn\u2019t work. It had never worked. Oh, and the company\u2019s founder and CEO was a con artist on the run from the law and living under an assumed name.\nIn January, National Geographic viewers can take a break from tomb explorations, wildlife safaris, and the deep blue sea, and instead explore the wilds of Silicon Valley. Valley of the Boom is a six-part series that dives into three absolutely true but almost-beyond-belief stories of 1990s dot-com bubble excess. Before the die was set for how a tech CEO or a venture capitalist should operate, the people in these stories were trying to figure it out in real time and making enormous mistakes with multi-million-dollar budgets.\nThe three stories told in Valley of the Boom are about the browser wars (with Netscape in the David role and Microsoft as Goliath), theglobe.com (how a popular early social site with the then-largest-ever IPO managed to lose it all), and Pixelon (where a lot of people who should have known better got taken by a charismatic swindler).\nValley of the Boom started with a phone call, when Jada Miranda, EVP, head of scripted television at STX Entertainment, called one of her clients, Matthew Carnahan, creator and executive producer of House of Lies, and asked if he was interested in the beginning of the browser wars. He wasn\u2019t. He wasn\u2019t a tech-head and he didn\u2019t know anything about browsers. But he took a meeting and before long he was fascinated by the world of 1990s Silicon Valley, and how technology born from passion projects in people\u2019s garages ended up changing the world.\n\u201cI also got really interested in it because the tech world is very forward looking. They don\u2019t really examine the present and they almost never examine the past,\u201d Carnahan says.\nNational Geographic had already expressed interest in the project. After reading through the research STX had given him, Carnahan told NatGeo he wanted to tell this story in a way that would \u201cruin their network and explode their brand.\u201d He wasn\u2019t interested in creating a documentary or a faithful reenactment. For three larger-than-life stories, he wanted to throw everything he could at the screen. The final work is a mix of scripted scenes and first-person confessions from the people who were actually there, but also includes a dance number, a rap battle, a full-on musical production number, and puppets. To his surprise, National Geographic went for it.\nActor Steve Zahn, best known for his work in That Thing You Do! and War for the Planet of the Apes, got the role of Michael Fenne (pronounced FAYN; his real name was David Kim Stanley), the Bible-quoting huckster who got a lot of smart and gullible people to help him create Pixelon. Zahn has a natural likability on camera, and that helped him win the part.\n\u201cDavid Kim Stanley is absolutely golden-tongued, charismatic, incredibly attractive to people,\u201d Carnahan says. \u201cHe\u2019s so winning, he\u2019s such fun to talk to. He\u2019s self-deprecating somehow while absolutely selling his brand, and he\u2019s amazing. He\u2019s an amazing personality. So Steve was perfect because Steve could do anything and you still want to like him.\u201d\nIn National Geographic\u2019s Valley of the Boom, Steve Zahn plays David Kim Stanley, who went on the lam, dyed his hair, and rechristened himself Michael Fenne before he created Pixelon, a company that raised millions for streaming technology that didn\u2019t even exist.\nFor Zahn, the key to playing Fenne was seeing his good qualities. While he\u2019s an absolute villain in this series, he\u2019s the hero of his own story. Fenne has no trouble doing unscrupulous and illegal things, such as stealing the video streaming patent he uses to create Pixelon, but he believes in his actions and thinks he\u2019s doing it all for the right reasons. When he leads mandatory Bible-study sessions in his office, he believes he\u2019s doing good work.\nFenne\u2019s charisma and intelligence help him fool other people, but he also fools himself. When an employee tells him Pixelon\u2019s software is nowhere near ready for iBash, Fenne grows furious. When he hears about trouble with the broadcast, he assumes it will work itself out.\nValley of the Boom starts with Fenne on the run from a 36-year prison sentence in Virginia. He confessed to more than 50 fraud-related charges, having bilked his rural neighbors out of over a million dollars. Rather than serve his sentence, he goes on the lam to start a new life. He drives to the West Coast, dying his hair platinum blond along the way as a disguise. He repaints his car using several cans of spray paint. He gets stabbed during an attempted robbery, leaving him with a knife wound he has to sew up himself, and he removes an abscessed tooth with pliers. When he reaches California, he takes a shower on the beach\u2014something Zahn sees as central to his new identity.\n\u201cOnce he took a shower on the beach, he kind of cleansed himself in a way from all the sins of the past. He didn\u2019t consider himself a felon really, although there are moments when he starts freaking out after he becomes more of a focal point,\u201d Zahn says. \u201cIt\u2019s easy when you\u2019re nobody. The minute somebody is interested in what you\u2019re doing, then it blindsided him. That was his weakness, his Achilles heel, like it is for so many. Fame can cloud your perception when you\u2019re surrounded with people that you pay, that you think they\u2019re your friends.\u201d\nFenne\u2019s persuasion and the lure of becoming dot-com millionaires convince a lot of people to devote themselves to Pixelon. While he speaks in Bible verses, Zahn doesn\u2019t see religion as part of an act. The Appalachian-born son and grandson of preachers, that\u2019s who Fenne really is. He convinces himself that he\u2019s doing good, saving the biggest con for himself. This is a time when billions in investments are being thrown at barely sketched-out ideas, and Fenne is selling an idea. He\u2019s no programmer, but he\u2019s smart enough to understand the opportunity and take advantage of it.\nTo become Fenne, Zahn also had to look like him. Zahn and Carnahan talked about using prosthetics, but soon decided on a simpler route. If Zahn\u2019s makeup and fat suit look unconvincing, that\u2019s the point.\n\u201cThe more we talked about it, the more [Carnahan] said, \u2018I kind of want to just throw a wig on you in a fat suit.\u2019 I said, \u2018Like in high school? Like in the play?\u2019 He said, \u2018Yeah.\u2019 I love that. It\u2019s so theatrical. It put a little more pressure on.\u201d\nSo the hair that looks like a cheap peroxide job is a wig, and the fat suit that looks more Halloween than Hollywood, are intentional. It\u2019s a little crazy, but it works. It\u2019s not only a constant reminder that Fenne is in disguise, but that no one sees through it.\nOnline Video News: On2.com Cuts Jobs, Refocuses on Technology not Content\nSays it Will Refine Business on Broadband Technology Tools\nFeatured Articles: CES '16: Binge-Watching Is Fundamentally Changing TV\nWith viewers using multiple devices to binge not just on new shows but old ones, the TV landscape is more competitive than ever, say reps from Facebook, Starz, National Geographic, and more.\nFeatured Articles: Remembering Pixelon: A Former Executive Looks Back",

Not forgetting the lifelong lessons and the rights and wrongs our parents repeatedly told us, we ourselves should thank them from the bottom of our hearts for making us the person we are today.\nEveryone has their own individual opinions just like how everyone has a unique set of eyes.

In order to love yourself, you must learn to respect yourself. In order to respect yourself, you must learn to respect others.

        "raw_content": "By Suzanne van Norden\n3.1 Artistic Development in Education\n3.2 Is Artistic Development Culturally Specific?\nThose who want to complement educational developments in arts and crafts with an intercultural perspective cannot expect to rely on the support of an extensive bibliography or reports of experience already gleaned elsewhere. The following is compiled from notes and descriptions of practices, and is intended as a source of inspiration for those teachers who consider arts and crafts subjects as well as intercultural education important for their pupils development.\nIn this chapter, Suzanne van Norden reviews the artistic disciplines: drama, dance, music, the pictural arts, audivisual subjects and literature. Very little exists by way of written material for those disciplines. Alongside suggestions for the assessment of existing material, suitable ways to work with artistic disciplines are being treated. The author warns against folklorism and stereotypes and against the tendency to see children explicitly as an exponent of their non-western background. Alternateviley, it is dangerous to endow those fields in which self-espression is of papamount importnace with a cultural neutrality, while in reality they are not easily put into practice by every group within the population of The Netherlands.\nProductive, receptive and reflective\nIn all creative disciplines a distinction is made between a productive, receptive and reflective involvement with the arts. Productive involvement means actually making something. Receptivity entails looking and listening. Reflection implies thought or communication. These three activities are sometimes strictly separated from each other; sometimes they are brought together to form an organic unity. The choice of options depends on the teacher, the objectives and the practical opportunities available.\nThe objectives of artistic development, as they are generally defined, are remarkably sweeping in their scope. Artistic development is considered important for pupils not only in respect of their orientation to the world, but also for their personal growth and social development. In other words, it is more than merely painting or writing a poem. It concerns 'the development of creativity in thought, speech, gesture and behaviour' (1) as well as what happens to you when you are painting or looking at a painting, writing or reading a poem. It concerns the way in which you and your experience of the world is influenced and changed.\nTherefore, the objectives of artistic development can be general and broad in scope, and they can also be limited and geared to a specific subject. Artistic disciplines can be applied as a means to achieve general developmental goals, but they can also be goals in themselves. The discussion about which goal should be foremost is one that has surfaced recurrently in the history of artistic development.\nAmong projects that can be construed as a part of 'intercultural artistic development' one finds very few subject-specific definitions of objectives. More often the primary aim would be something general such as 'achieving respect for different lifestyles', and artistic activities are seen as a convenient means to reach that end. It is hardly necessary to explain why artistic development, alongside other school subjects, should be intercultural in essence. It is necessary to attune this field to multi-ethnic classes and the social proximity of different ethnic groups that occurs outside school. Should one take the class to the Museum of the Tropics as well as to the Rijksmuseum? Should Turkish and Surinamese songs be included in a repertoire? Should one employ artistic disciplines in projects about racism and discrimination? The advantages and disadvantages of the divergent approaches will be discussed here. First, however, I would like to give an impression of the place accorded to artistic development in education at the present time.\nFor the average teacher in primary education, artistic development in practice consists of incidental drawing, singing and a short play. Few primary schools have teachers specialised in drawing, handicrafts or music; the class teachers usually have to decide for themselves the way in which they can introduce 'creativity' into their programme. In multilingual groups they will certainly give priority to language and arithmetic, leaving scant time over for a systematic application of the 'softer' disciplines with a predetermined outcome in view. In secondary education, a certain proportion of the basic developmental project is set aside for artistic development and the lessons are taught by trained teachers.\nArtistic development consists of more than drawing, handicrafts and music. The term 'artistic development' is a collective term for six subject areas or disciplines that are derived from the arts, namely: pictorial development, dramatic development, dance development, literary development, musical development and audio-visual development. With the exception of audio-visual development all these disciplines are mentioned in the Primary Education Act.\nAs drawing, handicrafts and music have a set place in the curriculum at primary and secondary levels, there are specific instructional materials for these subjects that extend over the entire educational period, and on which schools can base a curriculum. As regards drama, dance, literary and audio-visual development, the teacher has to make do with incidental brochures, lesson notes, project portfolios and documentation files. These materials are often constructed thematically and disciplines are combined with each other.\nBesides the use of classroom material, the school can also opt to employ a 'specialist'. Due to a structural shortage of time experienced by most teachers, this practice occurs frequently. Drawing and music teachers are taken on by some schools, but more often, especially for the other disciplines, the school turns to consultants from establishments specialising in artistic development. In some regions, an annual 'art offer' is made to the schools so they can choose from a variety of support programmes: museum visits, theatre performances, a series of dance classes, a photography project, a series of language printing sessions, a children's choir project. 'Consultants' in artistic development take their own working methods and sometimes their own instructional-material into the classroom with them. Their goals vary; sometimes it is a one-off event; sometimes the aim is to train teachers so as to enable them to work independently with a chosen artistic discipline.\nIn modern western society originality, innovation and creativity are pivotal criteria for assessment of artistic expression, along with the emphasis on the artist's individual achievements. These characteristics are reflected in the practice of artistic development in the west during the last fifty years. In all disciplines, encouraging the child's personal expression is paramount. Inventiveness is highly-valued. The more discoveries children make and the more ways they find of expressing their personal experiences the better.\nArt often has a different function in non-western societies. Frequently, art has a religious goal and is practised in accordance with traditionally proscribed rules. Personal feelings are subordinate to the rules and the individual expression of the artist is less important than the religious or philosophical function of the art work produced. As a part of the appropriate artistic instruction, the pupil's objective is to find her/his way around the practice of the old tradition rather than to explore new and personal avenues. The master instructs the pupil, whose eventual expertise can only be the result of continuous practise over a long period of time.\nThese differing appraisals of the values and function of art can have consequences for an intercultural complementation of artistic development in schools. The points of departure for artistic development are a consequence of western notions. Whether or not non-western notions can be easily assimilated is questionable.\nThe Original and the Derivative\nMost teachers of artistic development put a high premium on originality: the reproduction of cliches should be opposed. A tendency in children to derive material from cliches can take many forms: the identical rows of suns and flowers in drawings made by girl's and the weapons and airplanes in those by boys; copying popular comic book figures; playing stereotypes; imitating popstars; the language used in stories or poems; the mass appeal of certain American films and television programmes. For most full-time teachers this is not a problem. The pleasure children experience in this kind of activity is their foremost concern and they lack the knowledge and artistic experience needed to bring about any changes. Only those teachers with a specialised training in a subject look for forms and methods that can break through the tendency to reproduce cliches. For this reason, in the 'Werkschuit' (now: Stichting Kunstzinnige Werkvorming Amsterdam) in the fifties the term 'liberating technique' was coined. It embraced techniques by means of which children could be helped to produce pictures divorced from the cliches or set ideas of beauty or ugliness. Techniques such as cutting out printing blocks, painting with thick brushes, tearing paper and making group pictures produced unexpected results that were free from cliches.\nIn non-western cultural traditions certain manifestations of cliches are highly regarded. For religious reasons, Islamic children are sometimes forbidden to draw people or animals. Instead, they are praised for their skill in drawing minutely detailed non-figurative decorations following an established pattern. Other religions also embrace established symbols, a particular application of colour and representations that are repeated with only minor variations. To children from a Hindu background, centuries-old stories of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata form an inexhaustible source of material. They are told time and again and re-shaped, even in comic strips and films. And in many cultures the transmission (and, therefore, the endless repetition) of old stories is more important than coming up with something new. Almost no-where in western education are children still obliged to learn texts by heart; in Chinese and Koran schools this practice is the predominant. Likewise, in Chinese and Arabic cultures calligraphy is a separate and highly valued art form, to which even children may apply themselves.\nTeachers will have to ask themselves if these cultural traditions actually uphold cliches that should be transcended . As a consequence, they will also have to question the emphasis on originality, authenticity and free expression in modern artistic development. Could it be deemed 'ethnocentric' and should there be a revision of the central notions encompassing artistic development in order to render it intercultural?\nCounteracting Cultural Bias\nIntercultural artistic development is not only intended for children from ethnic groups, but equally for white Dutch children. All children have both the need and the right to be put into contact with the cultural backgrounds of groups outside their own.\nThe acquisition of knowledge is perhaps the least problematic area. A teacher can take on some re-training and can be so inventive with materials that s/he can confront pupils with examples of art from all kinds of cultures and can tell them a great deal about it. Receptive and reflective instructional-materials that are geared towards the acquisition of knowledge can be easily screened for cultural bias. The following questions serve as a litmus test. When looking at pictorial art, are art works from non-western cultures included? Are examples of non-western music or dance on offer? Is attention paid to non-western literary forms, such as the oral tradition or specific poetic techniques? And if a diversity in culture is offered, is non-western art systematically appraised 'less important' or 'primitive' in comparison with western art?\nIt becomes more complicated when one is attempting to interculturalise the creative products of artistic development. When children are asked to express themselves personally, creatively, authentically or originally, this itself entails a particular (western) perspective on humankind. In this view, the human is an autonomous individual, capable of self-determination and able to make decisions independently. Towards the end of the last century the notion developed in Western-Europe that children are more spontaneous, uncomplicated and freer than adults, and that education should respect and use this individuality. This view was to form the basis for the term 'free expression' that came into vogue around 1950. The pictorial arts were dubbed 'expressive arts' and were no longer geared towards teaching children to draw but to let them draw. Supervision was deemed unnecessary. Ten years later 'teaching' made a come-back, however, and 'free expression' became 'artistic development'. The individuality is still central, but they can be taught how to give expression to this by means of effective methodologies. Do these views fit into the practice of artistic development with an intercultural bias? Moreover, does this belong in contemporary multicultural classrooms?\nChildren in a Multicultural Netherlands\nThe schematic division into western and non-western entails the danger that children from ethnic minority groups will simply be regarded as representatives of their parent's culture or that of their country of origin. The direct experience of teachers with ethnically mixed groups presents another picture. It is certainly not true that all Turkish and Moroccan children in The Netherlands are prohibited from drawing figures, nor that all Surinamese children live with a musical cacophony, nor that Chinese parents show no interest in their toddlers first scribbles. And it is even less true that multi-ethnic groups find it difficult to work successfully with existing artistic forms.\nThere has been very little systematic research undertaken into the role that ethnic background plays when children are taking part in artistic activities. There are many hypotheses and suppositions.\nSometimes, when I am working in a class on artistic development I suspect that children from some ethnic groups never read or draw at home. And I also suspect that drawings and dolls made at school by Islamic children are never taken home because their parents do not approve of them. Sometimes, I get the impression that the children from ethnic minority groups become very self-conscious when they are asked for their own feelings or experiences of something. Or, I feel that they are extra careful not to dirty their clothes when they are working with printing techniques.\nBut I also discover sometimes that Turkish children listen alternately to Madonna and to Turkish music, or more often only to Madonna. Sometimes Islamic children have a long row of coloured crayons at home. White children go to piano and dance lessons and are trained there in something geared towards technical accomplishments. And Moroccan children play drums at home and learn traditional dances from aunts and sisters, while they also spend half the day watching MTV and imitating the dances with their friends.\nFinally, among white Dutch children I have seen so many differences that it is impossible to present a unambiguous picture of them.\nIf something in general can be said about the relationship between ethnicity and artistic development, then it is perhaps this: children from ethnic minority groups are probably better equipped to function in various cultural contexts than Dutch children in 'white' schools. It is a necessity for them! The wedding of a Moroccan cousin, at which men and women will absolutely never dance together, is as important and as unavoidable for a Moroccan child as the school party the day before where boys and girls throw their arms around each other on the dance floor. To one extent or another, children from ethnic minority groups are all faced with the differences between the western culture all around them and the ethnic culture practised by their parents and relatives. The differences can create tensions, but also lead to new possibilities for expression. At school children should be given the space and the support they need to look for forms of expression that are most fitting for them at that stage of their development.\nIn my opinion, intercultural artistic development can only take place experimentally in the field of tension between elements of different cultures. There is no reason to stop children from ethnic minority groups using 'self-expression'. There is every reason to keep an eye on the effects of this on these children so that the instructional-material can ultimately be adapted or complemented accordingly. Alongside this, all children should be systematically confronted with works of art and techniques from non-western cultures. The latter should dovetail with the steady increase in attention that is being paid to techniques in all artistic disciplines at the present moment.\nEthnicity, Folklorism and One's Own Experiences\nThe relationship between ethnic origins and participation in artistic development is not uncomplicated. Actually, it is impossible to say in general what role ethnicity plays in the child's daily life.\nChildren from Turkish origins will not feel Turkish all day long and to the same extent, in the same way that white Dutch children will not continuously feel Dutch. Usually, they feel simply different: small, large, boy or girl, unhappy, tough or sexy. They can be very proud of their Turkish origins, or they can reject it, either all of it or just a small part. This depends on the circumstances.\nTeachers cannot just turn to a child at any particular moment and address her/him on the basis of their supposed ethnicity. It could have an undesirable effect if one shoves a drum at a Surinamese child with the instructions 'here, play the drum in a Surinamese way'. Nor should one assume that children from Ghanese origins would have a great deal to tell the class after watching an African film. They can become very angry or insecure, because they know nothing about, or want to distance themselves from, that which is expected of them. Equally, one could find them blossoming, exactly because they have recognised something and suddenly they are the 'expert'.\nFor a long time, the intercultural approach existed in schools in the form of organised projects about countries and about Turkish, Moroccan or Hindu celebrations, abundantly endowed with exotic snacks, dances and music. This was intended to help children from different ethnic groups approach each other. In the meantime, this strategy has been rejected as 'folklorism': a reprehensible attempt to attract contemporary Dutch children to a few colourful characteristics of a country they have usually never visited. While this criticism is justified, it pays too scant attention to the obvious pleasure children could nonetheless experience from this type of 'folklore'.\nAs an alternative to folklorism the individual, personal experiences of the children can be made central, by means of which extra attention is paid to the ever different ways in which these experiences are influenced by the ethnic background. In artistic development, especially, where there is a continuous search for an individual, authentic manner of expression, it is important for teachers to learn how to foreground something without pressure or stigmatisation.\nAnother alternative can be found in an approach which pays serious attention to non-western art forms, by presenting and studying these in their contemporary modes of manifestation, and by taking on artists from various ethnic groups in establishments for artistic development.\nMuseums, Concert Halls, and Theatres\nIn most schools it is usual for children to become acquainted with original works of art through visits to museums or attendance at concerts or plays. While some change is taking place, most of the art found in museums is western, and the same can be said of that which can be seen and heard on Dutch podia. Non-western art is predominantly to be found in anthropological museums or at special multicultural or folklore festivals. The works are usually not exhibited then in their own rights, but serve broader social goals, such as giving information about the lifestyles of non-western peoples, or improving the position of ethnic minorities.\nThis reflects the (steadily changing) relationships between 'native' Dutch ('autochtone') and ethnic minority ('allochtone') groups, but is also a consequence of the different function of art in non-western cultures, in which works of art often have a social function. This vanishes in the neutral museum environment or on a disengaged, brightly-lit western stage. An accompanying lecture or an information brochure changes little. Rather, it could put the art in a more educational context and, therefore, render it boring.\nAlternatively, there is something to be said for the practice of bringing non-western art and performance into museums and theatres. It can release non-western art from its anthropological ambience and enhance its status as 'real' art. Furthermore, it brings a wider cross-section of the public into contact with different cultures. Perhaps it even renders the sphere of professional art more accessible for laymen and amateurs. It would be a fine outcome of receptive artistic development in schools if attending a concert or visiting a museum prompts the individual to feel the artistic urge and a will to put it into effect.\nIt would be fine if the range of exhibits and performances on offer were to become more multicultural. One should be able to take children to look at 17th century Dutch masters, but also to Chinese water-colours or African statues, or to Matthew's Passion and to a rai concert, to Swan Lake and Ghanese dancers, to a play by Pinter and also an Indonesian Wayang performance. Perhaps, contemporary artists from ethnic minorities could be brought into the classroom. Then the children could start painting, dancing, acting or making music themselves.\nFor teachers there is also a great deal of work to do if they are ready and willing. It will not be easy to put such a multicultural scope into effect. Secondly, the teacher will need to acquire a great deal of new knowledge. Thirdly, it is impossible to predict the ways in which children from different ethnic groups and environments will react to the material. Art evokes emotions. Teachers will be confronted with the whole gamut from recognition, curiosity and enthusiasm to lack of interest, resistance and anger. A concert of Turkish music could divide a whole group of Turkish children into opposing camps, because some children will want to identify with the culture others will not. Dutch parents can also protest against this type of approach, 'because the school is already Turkish enough'. It requires tact, openness and inventiveness to preclude suchlike conflicts.\nArtistic development is about doing; making art, listening to it, looking at it thinking and talking about it. The emphasis on one aspect or another can be varied. At present little exists for (prospective) teachers to help them come to grips with the need to complement artistic development with interculturality. In this chapter a number of problems have been discussed and projects from six artistic disciplines prioritising intercultural objectives and assumptions have been cited. The following is a brief summary:\n-\u00b7The objectives of artistic development are sometimes instrumental, that is they are the means by which a general developmental objective can be achieved. Sometimes they are intrinsic: they remain within the boundaries of the relevant artistic discipline. In intercultural artistic development both are to be found, depending on the approach. When personal attitudes are concerned, such as having 'respect for other cultures' and being 'open to cultural exchanges', the objectives are instrumental. When the acquisition of skills or knowledge is central, such as learning certain dance steps or distinguishing between different musical traditions, the objectives are intrinsic. Teachers she scrutinize the lesson-material bearing the following two questions in mind:\n-\u00b7Are attitudes learned by the children (in an active, receptive and/or reflexive sense) likely to help them negotiate an independent path in a multicultural society?\n-\u00b7Does the material use all the opportunities available for explaining art from other cultures within the same discipline alongside western art?\n-\u00b7In a multicultural society there are differences in the evaluation and status of art. western attitudes often contrast with non-western attitudes, but also within cultures there is no agreement concerning the function of art. This does not preclude an exchange and a blending of art forms. The teacher can try to provide answers to the following questions, though the answers will vary according to the discipline.\n-\u00b7Which points of departure concerning the function of art are fundamental to this material? Are they typically western? If so, pupils from another culture could be embarrassed, by stress laid on certain skills, such as a capacity to express oneself in a literary style of Dutch, or by being asked to draw a picture of a deity or to express personal feelings.\n-\u00b7Which (technical) skills are being valued and taught through the material? And which forms of creativity and originality are being valued and encouraged? Are you aware, as a teacher, of the specific objectives you are realising through artistic development, and what effect your methods will have on different ethnic groups.\n-\u00b7The significance of ethnicity both in everyday life and for children taking part in artistic development in The Netherlands at the present time is not a given. It is changeable and dynamic. What is on offer in the intercultural artistic arena must take this into account and be varied by definition. It is crucial that the multi-ethnic nature of the class, and of The Netherlands, is represented as self-evident, and that no single pupil should be pigeon-holed on the basis of her/his ethnicity. The following questions are fundamental:\n-\u00b7Does the material, and the supervision, give each pupil sufficient room to search for a means of expression that is most suitable to her/his own development?\n-\u00b7What are your attitudes, as a teacher, to the pupils' ethnic backgrounds? To what extent have these been gleaned from personal statements made by the pupils themselves? How can you use the art itself to ensure that pupils are given the opportunities to express their own cultural background? Do you given them the freedom to do this?\n-\u00b7In existing projects operative in the field of intercultural artistic development there are a variety of intercultural supplements available. Four approaches have been distinguished:\n1. A non-western cultural event is studied in detail. Try to do this as far as is possible with the correct cultural context and function, otherwise this method never moves beyond the study of folklore.\n2. Non-western or ethnic artists and works of art are added to the western, or non-ethnic. An exchange of the western and non-western, rather than merely a complementation, would be ideal. Teachers need to acquire knowledge of several cultures. Museums and performances that display diversity can also be put to use.\n3. Universal themes should be regarded from a variety of perspectives. Personal experiences, such as loneliness, love, happiness and sadness, as well as families, conflicts, work and friendship are topics that find expression in all cultures and every discipline. If this method is to be successful, a great deal of cultural knowledge must be employed by the teacher and/or the pupils. The diverse supplements that can be used with these themes should ensure that both similarities and differences between cultural traditions become evident.\n4.Ethnicity and multiculturality as it is experienced by contemporary Dutch children should be central to the projects. Not all disciplines have had material developed that deals with these aspects, however, the primary source should be the pupils themselves. If they can exchange experiences with each other, express themselves creatively and enjoy what they are doing, then a great deal will have been achieved.\n1 Schermel, Atie, 'Intercultureel onder-wijs en kunstzinnige vorming' (Intercultural Education and Artistic Development).

        "title": "The Spirit of Billy The Pig: March 2013",
        "raw_content": "On the whole, guinea pigs as a species are not particularly religious. In fact we have some difficulty understanding the whole religion thing. We just can't understand why humans need to rely on a supernatural being to tell them how to behave, and even then they pick and choose which of their chosen supernatural being's instructions they choose to obey. Having said all that though, we piggies do enjoy Easter, which as I understand it stands for Every Animal Should Try Eating Ravenously. In the human world Easter celebrates the first ever long weekend, generously granted by the Jerusalem Chamber of Commerce in a fit of guilt after they'd crucified Jesus for taking industrial action in the markets that they'd set up in and around the temple. Jesus (the world's first union leader), had been seriously getting up the Chamber of Commerce's goat for a while. In fact ever since he suggested that it was easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to go to heaven, he had been in the their cross-hairs. The feeding of the five thousand didn't help either. Giving away all that food cost the local McDonald's franchise an absolute fortune in daily takings. The locals were all too busy stuffing their faces with free loaves and fishes to want to cough up shekels for a Supersized McSabbath Meal.\nSo, in the end the authorities didn't need much of an excuse to rid themselves of this troublesome unionist. The last thing the Chamber of Commerce needed was some long haired hippy running all over the place convincing the great unwashed masses that they were every bit as good and worthy as rich people. So, with the help of the Romans the Chamber of Commerce set him up by bribing his friend poor old Judas to betray him, and the rest is history.\nMy male staff when he was younger and even more stupid studied Biblical Archaeology, not necessarily because he wanted to be some sort of ugly Indiana Jones, but because he rather fancied a red haired Welsh girl called Tracey whom he'd met on a trip to Israel and was rather hoping to join her at University as a mature student. Not that he was particularly mature, quite the opposite actually. Anyway having gained the necessary entry qualifications Mrs Thatcher decided that she did not have enough money to give him a grant, so he dropped out even before he started. However, he did learn one or two the tricks of Roman crucifixion at the time of Christ. For example, it was unusual for the cross to be a cross at all. Usually it was just shaped like a capital T. It was also unusual for the victims to be nailed to it. Most often they they were just tied to it with leather thongs, their feet supported by a small shelf.\nMostly the poor sods died within three or four days from thirst, or exposure or both, but those who survived beyond the patience of the guards had their shins smashed with clubs. As you can imagine, this didn't exactly improve their overall well-being and death followed fairly rapidly due to shock or heart failure as their blood rushed down to the sight of the injury. Nails, when they were used were not driven through the palms of the hand because the weight of the body would have ripped them out. Instead they were driven between the bone of the wrist, taking care that no major blood vessels were damaged. The Romans didn't want their victims to die without at least a couple of days of suffering. The feet were twisted to one side, placed together and then had a long nail hammered through both heels between the ankle the Achilles tendon, though they still very considerately supplied the little shelf for them to stand on. Thank heavens for the Romans. Imagine where human kind would be now without their civilising influence.\nThere are two sites considered as the sight of Jesus' tomb. Apparently the most likely of the two is at the sight of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre - a dark, dank, candle lit place deep inside the Christian Quarter of Jerusalem, tucked away amongst the labyrinthine alleyways where my male staff's Welsh redhead had her bum groped by a snot nosed little Arab brat of about twelve. My male staff grabbed the kid's arm and twisted it, while snarling at him. Not so much in outrage but in fear that the Welsh chick might think it was him fondling her bum while they queued to enter Christianity's most holy site.The Bible has it that Jesus was crucified and buried outside of Jerusalem's city walls. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is well within the present city walls, but two thousand years ago it was not, and who knows, it may be the place where the world's first union leader was interred before he changed his mind about the whole death thing..\nMy male staff prefers the other location though - The Garden Tomb, for one thing it is located just above the Arab bus station, which at the time of Christ would have been very convenient for the locals who wanted to come and jeer and throw bush chocolate at the poor devils on their crosses. The Bible tells us that Jesus was crucified on a hill, outside the city walls at a place called Golgotha - which means \"The Place of the Skull.\" The Garden Tomb has many examples of the type of tomb used two thousand years ago. A hollow carved into the rock containing a stone sarcophagus, closed off with a huge slab of rock.\nThe Garden Tomb is also called Gordon's Calvary. Remember General Gordon? The Victorian hero of the siege of Khartoum and serial God-botherer. Well he was having his evening stroll along the top of Jerusalem's city wall with some of his aides when he suddenly stopped dead, causing all his aides to run into each other with cries of \"I say old chap! Watch where you're jolly well going. That waxed moustache of yours could have had my eye out.\" But all the aides stopped and stared at General Gordon as he exclaimed \"Bugger me!\" Normally his strongest language consisted of \"By Jiminy!\" or \"Good Gracious.\"\nWhat had General Gordon seen? This.\nJust as the number 14 bus to Bethlehem was pulling out, he had discovered Golgotha - The Place of the Skull, or so he thought, and my male staff would have agreed with him. The Garden Tomb is a peaceful, picturesque spot compared to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The gardens are well tended and it has a serene atmosphere which appears to quell the roar of diesel engines and acrid exhaust fumes. The experts say that it is not likely to be the true burial site of Jesus Christ, but one is less likely to get one's bum fondled there.\nSo humans. Please tell me. What is Easter really all about these days? It seems that the Chamber of Commerce has got their own way in the end, setting up their markets stalls in the proverbial temple of Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday. Like most Christian festivals Easter has become commercialised and even pagan-ised. I get the whole egg thing at Easter. New life after death, the Resurrection and all that, even if the connection is a little tenuous. But rabbits? What have rabbits got to do with anything? I can see that they might be a pagan symbol of fertility. Let's face it the cute little devils like a bit of \"How's Your Father\" as much, if not more than the rest of us, but what have they got to do with the death and Resurrection of Jesus? As far as a know they were not even present at his birth. There were cattle, sheep and even an ass, but no bunnies - no three wise rabbits. In fact rabbits played no part in his life at all as far as I can see. Mind you. There is a huge gap in the Bible from when Jesus was about three until he was around thirty years of age. Maybe he was running a rabbit hatchery or whatever they call them, or a pet shop that specialised in rabbits. Who knows? What I do know however is that my male staff says that the next time he sees a chocolate rabbit on a supermarket shelf before the last of the twelve days of Christmas is up he's going to ram that bunny so far up the supermarket manager's bottom passage that he'll be able to taste whether is is made of milk or dark chocolate.\nWell, I can add nothing useful to this except perhaps............Wheeeeeeeeeeeek!\nGoodness me! Didn't the Australian government get itself into what my male staff's Auntie Ethel would have called \"a pickle\" this week? Another of Auntie Ethel's favourite expressions was \"Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I'm right.\" For those of you who have the misfortune to live beyond our burning shore I will re-cap. Since the current government first came to power in 2007 they have lurched from one crisis to another. Mostly self inflicted. Nevertheless, they steered the nation through the storm of the Global Financial Crisis and came out the other side in pretty good shape compared to Europe and the USA by investing early and copiously in infrastructure. The parliamentary opposition criticised them roundly for spending so much money, but what was the alternative? Allow unemployment to grow and the economy to stagnate, or more likely slide into recession? It must be remembered that a large part of the GFC was directly caused by corporate greed and the lack of regulation - something that the Australian parliamentary opposition is all in favour of.\nThe trouble is that almost all of the good policy releases - the National Broadband Network, the so called Mining Tax and the Gonski education reforms have been so incompetently managed and sold to the public that even a second rate rodent like a rat could have done it better. In 2010 the then Prime Minister Kevin Rudd made the mistake of turning his back on Julia Gillard and was stabbed in it multiple times and Ms Gillard then led the ruling Labor Party to the next election, just before which she pledged that there would never be a mining tax under any government led by her. Fortunately she changed her mind shortly after she was re-elected. The mining tax was good policy, or at least it would have been if it hadn't been watered down so much and left with so many loopholes for mining companies to exploit that the tax raised hardly and funds at all in the first year.\nAnyway, the latest debacle is Communication Minister Senator Conroy's media regulation. Good legislation by any fair minded standards, not that such a thing exists in the Australian media, most of which is dominated by Fairfax and Rupert Murdoch's News Limited. The main focus of these reforms are to encourage more diversification and to force newspapers to publish more prominent apologies when they make incorrect statements. Nothing wrong with that you would think, but the good old Labor government gave the parliament about ten minutes to read through about a thousand pages of legislation and said that they wouldn't contemplate any changes. Consequently the opposition, supported by the press have been hyperventilating, comparing Senator Conroy to Stalin and Robert Mugabe amongst others; a threat to the so called free press and democracy itself. What bush chocolate! What free press? How can you have a free press when there are only two major media companies, both of which are beholden to their own interests and that of big business. The journalists they employ are not free to write what they want because if they are stupid enough to write something that their employer takes exception to they are not likely to get a job elsewhere. The only truly independent writers these days are guinea pig bloggers.\nAll the kerfuffle about this chaotic way of putting forward legislation upset former party leader Simon Crean so much that he decided to cause a leadership spill, hoping that Kevin Rudd would challenge for the leadership. Trouble is he forgot to tell Mr Rudd and was left flapping in the breeze. He must have felt like a platoon leader in the first world war who'd called his men to charge the enemy trench only to find that he was the only one charging when he got half way across no mans land.\nWhere does all this leave the rest of us? Well the government is now less popular than a plague of guinea pigs on a basil farm. This means that nutty opposition leader Tony \"climate change is crap\" Abbott is likely to find himself living in \"The Lodge\" after September's General Election. Actually, come to think of it, maybe that's why the mainstream Australian media is so keen to see him elected as Prime Minister - they can already envisage all the headlines his bizarre statements and behavior will generate.\nI don't really care who the Prime Minister is so long as they provide free foot care for all cavies.\nThis is me pictured with a book written by my favourite author Brian Meeks. His books are always written on the best tasting paper.\nHow many of you have been to a guinea pig show? Well I hadn't until this weekend and neither had Badger. We were bundled into the car along with my female staff's Mum. My female staff was in the front passenger seat because she gets motion sickness even when she's walking and my male staff was driving, which is always a bit disconcerting because he will keep looking over his shoulder to make sure we're okay. This wouldn't be so bad if he just had a quick glance, but no. Every kilometre or so he has to swivel right around and have a lengthy conversation with us. \"You boys okay? Got enough to eat and drink? How's your water? Did you see the football last night? There's no way on earth that that was a penalty.\" That kind of thing. All while driving along the freeway at one hundred and ten kilometres an hour. Still, we always have some interesting off road adventures, and the occasional close encounter with surprised livestock as we bounce across roadside paddocks.\nSo, anyway my female staff set the GPS (Guinea Pig Seeker) to Short Street, Nambour. The guinea pig show was being held there at the CWA hall. (Cavy Watchers Association I suppose.) Driving into Nambour it is immediately obvious that the town is dying, or at least is in the Intensive Care Ward. Shops are boarded up and the residents are either the size of cricket sight screens or are skinny, buttock-less and chain-smoking. Both types tend to spend most of their time in or around McDonald's which appears to be the only thriving shop in town.\nWe parked the car opposite the CWA and strolled across the road, listening out for the \"diddle-ing- ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding\" of duelling banjos and distant cries of \"Squeal piggy squeal.\" coming from the forest around the town. As it happens though the only squealing was coming from inside the CWA hall. Badger and I were carried through the door cradled in the arms of my staff, and goodness me what a racket! Several dozen wheeking guinea pigs were set upon rows of tables in small carrying cages. Each one was spotlessly clean and smartly groomed. My staff said that they weren't going to enter us in the show because we'd win all the prizes and it wouldn't be fair on the other animals. I could see now that they were right. This lot were a bunch of preened, puffed up pooftahs and I couldn't belief how my staff and female staff's mum ooh-ed and ahh-ed over them. Badger and I were the only real boars there. It does have to be said though, that there were so fine looking lady pigs. They were all too stuck up to talk to the likes of us though. The least my staff could have was to brush my fur before we left home, but no, I turned up at the show looking like a porcupine.\nI had absolutely no idea that there were so many different breeds of guinea pig. As my staff carried us around the hall I became acquainted with all sorts of exotic sounding creatures. There were fat, beaver-like Texels and Peruvians with long flowing locks that looked not dissimilar to Cousin It from The Addams Family.\nAbove. A Peruvian guinea pig. Right. Cousin It.\nThere were other rare breeds too.\nThe Berlusconi Azuri - an Italian breed. Rather slimy in appearance, but gregarious and a good breeder.\nThe British Hooligan - Not very attractive to look at. Intimidates other guinea pigs by tipping their food bowls over their heads. Tends to be become inebriated by eating fermented hay.\nThe Australian Okker - Similar to the British Hooligan but with a rather different, somewhat nasal vocalisation. \"Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie wheek wheek wheek!\" It also has a penchant for fermented hay.\nThen there's me. I'm a Serbian Assassin and Badger is a Cornish Pastie.\nAfter an hour or so it was time for the guinea pigs to be judged. Each piggy was placed on what is called a \"show board\" which looks alarmingly like a dinner plate as it is offered up to the judge by the guinea pig's staff. It just needed a little bit of garnish around it and the image would have been complete.The judge or CMP (Cavy Molesting Pervert) then plucks them from the show board and fondles them all over, turning them on their backs and inspecting their tummies and most intimate bits. There's no way I would have submitted to such treatment. I would have wiggled, peed and pooped until the judge was forced to put me down.\nSo we all sat and watch the judging, there were many awards. Best in Breed, Best in Show, Piggy with the Most Painful bite, Fastest Pooper (Badger would have won that.). There was also a special prize for guinea pig bloggers - The Bullshitzer Prize. I would have won that but was banned from entering after I mounted the Best in Show winner.\nI've never seen such pampered feet. Honestly, I thought mine were pretty stunning, but these show piggies' feet were something else. I thought the pink varnish on the nails of the Best in Show winner was perhaps just a little pretentious.\nLook everyone. Badger's butt is so big it shows up on Google Earth.\nThis weekend my male staff was the emergency after hours contact for the reverse people smuggling agency that he works for. This meant that he had to take his cell phone to bed with him in case someone the agency had sent to Guatemala decided at two in morning Queensland, Australian time that they could no longer stand the colour of their hotel's wallpaper and wanted out immediately. Or perhaps a call from thirty-nine thousand feet from a passenger on a plane halfway across the Indian Ocean saying that she forget to pack her deodorant, and can my male staff ask the airline to get their plane to turn back so that she can get it. My male staff has already prepared for this one and intends to tell the passenger to ask the other passengers around her if they can put up with the stench of her body odour for another six hours until they land. If they answer in the negative she should call him back and he'll see what he can do. I'd hate for my poor male staff to be on the emergency shift if his dad called in. One of his complaints on their recent road trip around Queensland was that the soap in one of the hotels was the wrong shape and that the corners of it dug into him when he showered.\nActually, and this is true. My favourite emergency call came from a small group of young British girls traveling overseas for the first time. Luckily for them it wasn't to my male staff but to their own travel agent in Britain. The young lady sounded very worried. \"We're at the airport\" she said, \"and we've just been reading through our hotel brochure. It says No hairdressers at this resort. We are all apprentice hairdressers. Will they let us stay there?\"\nIt's taking a bit of a chance putting my male staff in charge of fielding emergency calls and complaints. There is a strong chance that a petty complaint like one of the above will be met with the response \"Oh I'm sorry, I think you've dialed the wrong number. You were obviously trying to contact someone who gives a shit.\"\nWell now, it's been an exciting couple of weeks for you humans hasn't it? That nice Mr Chavez from Venezuela has popped his clogs, so the American government will have to find another rabid left wing state in their region to demonise. Canada maybe? What a funny sort of relationship the USA and Venezuela had. They both get up each others nose dreadfully, yet they'd both be stuffed without the other. The USA needs Venezuela's oil and Venezuela needs the US dollars that they get for that oil, and yet they bicker like an old married couple.\nPope Benny has resigned, but we are yet to discover whether or not his resignation was due to fatigue and old age or whether he was guilty in the past of helping to shuffle weaselly paedophile priests around to make sure they never got caught. They say that the President of the United States is the most powerful man in the world, but that's a huge pile of bush chocolate. It is of course the Pope. Does Mr O'Barmer condemn millions of people to a horrible, slow death from AIDS related diseases just because he doesn't want men to wear a bit of rubber on their willy? No, I don't think he does. Would anyone listen to Mr O'Barmer if he told them it's mortal sin to have an abortion? Far better to have the baby and ruin three people's lives - the unwanted child and the parents'.\nForgive me if I'm wrong, but I've chewed quite a few pages of the Bible myself and I've never seen anything in it that specifically forbids contraception.\nAnd Jesus reluctantly finished texting and placed his cell phone Upon a rock, and lo, the rock didst turn to Gold. And there was Much Tweeting on their smartphones amongst the multitude and Much Gnashing of teeth and many sayeth buggereth me! This bloke Is Surely even better than David Beckham\nThen Jesus sayeth to the multitude. Now listeneth you lot. I don't Want anyone puttingeth bits of rubber over their willys, and any Chick who has the nerve to take little tablets of chemicals that stops Them gettingeth in the Pudding Club will suffer hell and damnation For eternity whereupon Satan will compel them to sitteth through Endless Episodes of Big Brother.\nAnyway, a planet's worth of Cardinals are gathering at the Vatican to vote for another elderly man with no real life experience to rule the lives of well over a billion Catholics. I'm sorry but human religion is not an easy concept to grasp for for a guinea pig. I can't help feeling that if Jesus was alive today he'd struggle with it too. After all, if the gospels are to be believed he was a man who gave up everything, including his life for the good of humanity and yet these Cardinals who claim to represent him live in lavish palaces and are almost to a man in the business of disenfranchising fifty percent of the world's population - women, especially poor women. Do you find that odd or is it just a guinea pig thing?\nOnce again I'm rather stumped as to how to link Billy's rather wide ranging theme with my uniquely gorgeous feet. Suffice to say that anyone with feet like mine is a far more suitable candidate for adoration than any octogenarian human in a silly hat and a bullet proof golf buggy.",

There was a friendly agreement to allow the use of the land, but with the church being up for sale, council felt it was important to secure the parking lot.\nMayor Lonny Napper also wanted to turn the church \u2013 called by several councilors the most beautiful building in Wyoming \u2013 into new council chambers. But that council nixed idea after staff learned it would have cost about $400,000.\nSo council decided to sever the land and sell the church again. On Thursday, with about 40 people watching VanKlaveren Auctions sold the building again this time for $100,000.

        "raw_content": "04/03/2016: NY FORUM TURNS SPOTLIGHT ON SUSTAINABILITY OF PH REFORMS\nNEW YORK CITY- \u201cThe Philippines will need to nurture the virtuous cycle of business confidence that good governance and good economics have engendered.\u201d\nThis was the main message of Finance Secretary Cesar V. Purisima in his Keynote Address at the Philippine Business and Investment Forum (PBIF) held on 03 March 2016 at the Metropolitan Ballroom of the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel.\nThe PBIF is taking place in the context of possible Philippine growth rates of 7-10% in the next decade and an HSBC Global Research Report predicting the country to be the 16th largest economy in the world by 2050.\n\u201cThis Forum is a great opportunity for us to take stock of the incredible performance of the Philippine economy over the past number of years and to bring attention to the successful reforms that have driven the country\u2019s economic transformation since 2010 when President Aquino assumed the presidency,\u201d earlier explained Philippine Ambassador to the United States Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. who initiated the PBIF.\nIn his keynote address, Secretary Purisima outlined the important policy and strategic issues that the Philippine Government needs to address in order to maintain the sustainability of recent economic growth. He underscored the importance of good governance, particularly in the areas of transparency, freedom of information, rule of law, security, and accountability. He added that good governance is intertwined with good economics and contributes to the virtuous cycle of confidence that encourages optimism in the Philippines, both domestically and internationally.\nOn the issue of sustaining Philippine economic growth, Secretary Purisima emphasized certain areas of connectivity: infrastructure, policy, digital connectivity, and process. Secretary Purisima further touched upon the opportunities as well as challenges that the Philippines currently present such as ASEAN integration, climate change, investing and scaling up in many industries, such as IT/BPM, MSMEs, agriculture, and tourism, as well as diversifying geographically such as in Mindanao and the Philippines\u2019 investment promotion areas.\nMr. Jose E.B. Antonio, CEO of Century Properties Group, speaking at the Lead Panel of the PBIF, told the audience that \u201cgood economic management has set the stage for future growth.\u201d In the same panel, Chairman Arsenio Balisacan of the Philippine Competition Commission and former Secretary for Socio-Economic Planning, referenced the three key constraints to growth, namely, weak institutions, poor infrastructure, and peace and order. Chairman Balisacan said that \u201cthe Aquino Administration has tackled each of these basic constraints leading to the greater confidence of business and investors.\u201d\nDr. Nouriel Roubini of Roubini Global Economics also noted that the success of the Philippine economic story can likewise be attributed to its openness to global and regional integration.\nIn a Keynote Address, former Trade and Industry Secretary Gregory L. Domingo echoed the points of Secretary Purisima and those in the lead panel. However, he added the importance of a large, young population of 100 million with a median age of twenty-three (23) years old. He stressed that this is an important demographic advantage that can be leveraged with proper investments in education and infrastructure.\nIn addition to the positive comments on the prudent economic management of the Aquino Administration, the PBIF panels discussed the way forward, especially in view of the presidential elections in May 2016.\n\u201cI was struck by the consensus among the speakers that the reforms and economic performance of the Philippines will be sustainable post-2016,\u201d noted Ambassador Cuisia.\nDr. Roubini expressed the belief that, regardless of the results of the May elections, there will be policy continuity in the Philippines.\n\u201cThe good news is this: Philippine economic dynamism, domestic demand, and its openness to the world can only mean that reforms will continue and deepen,\u201d he said.\nMr. Antonio, on the other hand, reassured the audience that \u201cit will be highly imprudent for any government, after President Aquino, to change the good things that have been undertaken in the last six years.\u201d\nThe message of sustainability of economic growth was reinforced by the panel on the Philippine Competitive Edge composed of Perry Pe, President of the Management Association of the Philippines; Alex Cabrera, Chairman of PriceWaterhouseCoopers Philippines; John Hixson, Vice President for Corporate Affairs of Cargill; and Andres Edlefsen of the US Department of Commerce.\nAtty. Pe lauded the legislative agenda of the Aquino Administration, which resulted in the enactment of important pieces of legislation that institutionalize economic reforms and good governance. He particularly cited the passage of the Philippine Competition Act and the Amendments to the Cabotage Law. Mr. Cabrera addressed the foreign equity limitations under the Philippine Constitution and argued that such limitations are actually very narrow and could easily be \u201cring fenced\u201d by proper structuring of investments. He said that he is of the view that the ASEAN Economic Community will result in more pressure on the Philippine Government to liberalize and become more competitive. In response to a question during the open forum after the panel presentations, Atty. Pe and Mr. Cabrera stated their firm belief that the foreign equity issue should not be a serious hindrance to investments.\nIn a dialogue, Mr. Enrique Razon, Chairman and CEO of International Container Terminal and Services Incorporated; and Ambassador John Negroponte, Co-Chair of the US-Philippines Society, situated the future of Philippine growth in an era of integration, particularly in Southeast Asia. Both agreed that ASEAN integration, including eventually free trade negotiations in APEC and possible accession to the Trans Pacific Partnership, creates unlimited opportunities for the Philippines, but at the same time, there is the key challenge of ensuring that policies and infrastructure are in place in order to truly benefit from integration.\nThroughout the discussions, key speakers also recognized the importance of the Philippines-US bilateral relationship in moving forward.\nIn his opening remarks, Ambassador Cuisia said that \u201cthe confidence of investors and our robust economic partnerships with key economies, such as the United States, constitute the solid foundations upon which our economic managers continue to promote the Philippines as fully open for business. These efforts become more vital if viewed in the context of the US rebalance to Asia.\u201d This partnership between the Philippines and the United States was described by USTR Director Karl Ehlers as \u201cstrong, robust and resilient.\u201d\nAmbassador Negroponte thus reminded the audience that \u201cthe Asia Pacific region has become the demographic and economic epicenter of the world. It behooves any country, including the United States, to think very carefully about how to engage the region, a subset of which is the ASEAN sub-region.\u201d ###",

        "raw_content": "The novel opens in the year 632 A.F. (which means After Ford, the god of the New World). All of civilization has been destroyed by a great war. Then there is another war, the Nine Years War, which ushers in the era of Ford, ensuring stability through dictatorship. The society depicted in the novel is based on a rigid caste system. The higher of the five castes enjoy superior tasks, while the lower ones perform menial roles. Ten Controllers hold all the power in this new world and peace is maintained by conditioning infant minds and by soothing adults with the tranquilizer, soma. The population is further controlled through scientific methods; marriage is forbidden, and children are not born but produced in an embryo factory.\nWhen the novel begins, some students are being given a guided tour through the London Hatcheries. Henry Foster and Lenina Crowne, two employees of this center, have been dating each other a little too often, going against state rules. Lenina's friend Fanny warns her against such promiscuity. As a result, Lenina decides to date Bernard Marx, who is very intelligent but not quite like the others of his caste. Lenina and Bernard decide to go on a vacation to a Savage Reservation in New Mexico, where people considered unworthy of Utopia are confined. On the reservation, the inhabitants live in an almost primitive manner. Before Bernard leaves for his vacation, he is warned by Tomakin, the Director of Hatcheries, about his non-conformist ways and threatened with exile to Iceland.\nLenina and Bernard accidentally meet Linda and her son, John the Savage, on the Reservation. Bernard learns from John that long ago Linda had come to the Reservation with Tomakin, who had abandoned her there. Discovering herself to be carrying Tomakin's child, she knew that she could not return to Utopia; therefore, she stayed on the Reservation and raised John. Hearing this story, Bernard goes to the Controller and gains his permission to take John and his mother back to Utopia. When Bernard presents the pair to Tomakin, the Director is shattered and resigns from his position at the Hatcheries, having become an object of ridicule. Bernard no longer has to worry about being exiled to Iceland.\nWhile living in the custody of Bernard, John becomes the object of everyone's curiosity and amusement. Bernard at first revels in the attention that he receives because of the Savage. Things, however, do not go smoothly. John soon grows repulsed by the ways of the New World and becomes unhappy. Despite his mood, Lenina finds herself terribly attracted to John and tries to seduce him. John, however, fights his physical attraction for her and resists her advances.\nWhen his mother dies, John goes crazy. He then tries to convert the Utopians to his way of thinking. Rebellion results and must be quelled. Bernard and Helmholtz Watson are blamed for the rebellion. When the two of them are taken to Mustapha Mond, along with John, Bernard and Helmholtz are exiled. John is retained for further experimentation. He resists and tries to flee into solitude, but the citizens of Utopia continue to hound him. In a fit of misery and depression, John commits suicide.",

        "raw_content": "The new Jerusalem Master Plan grabs 250 dunums of \u2018Issawiya village lands\nResidents of Al Issawiya village in Jerusalem Governorate were taken by surprise during the last week of September 2004 when a group of Israel's Land Authority employees placed a number of signs on a 250-dunums piece of land declaring it as a ''State Land.'' The land, currently inaccessible to the villagers, is located north of Shu'fat-Jericho road which also leads to the settlement of Ma'ale Adumim located east of Jerusalem. A week later, Israeli bulldozers surrounded the besieged area by a sandy road in a way to connect the 'already-posted signs'. The confiscated land is located in Parcel No. 4 of the village's lands which are composed of 7 parcels containing the village's total area (12,000 dunums).\n( map 1- location of Issawiya village)\nLand owners asserted that Israeli official, without any prior notice, confiscated the land and indicated that controlling these lands separates villages' lands located to the west of Shu'fat-Jericho bypass Road from those located to the east of the Road. It is worth mentioning here that Israeli occupation authorities declared in 1985 all ''unused lands'' as 'State Lands' through the manipulative use of the Ottoman Land Law of 1858 (hereafter ''the Land Law') which was valid within Israel until its replacement in 1970 by a different law passed by the Knesset, The Lands Law, 5729-1969. Lands were confiscated despite the fact that all land owners in Al Issawiya village have all the necessary documents that prove their ownership of the lands.\nDeliberate Obstacles:\nThe villagers resorted to a number of lawyers to file legal cases against the confiscation of their lands. As to hamper their efforts, Israeli financial institutions have placed obstacles in the way of land owners as to prevent them from obtaining the needed official documents. One such obstacle is the condition set by these institutions that whoever wants to issue any official document has to pay all taxes incurred in the past years on the land. A case in point is what took place to Mr. Khaled Sabri Darwish who was trying to issue document of ownership to a 1.5 dunums land. The relevant Israeli institution requested that he provides an Inheritance Declaration for his grandfather and another one for his father as well as paying the sum of NIS 148,000 as taxes !!!!!.\nIsraeli Colonial Expansion on the Expense of Al Issawiya Village:\nThe targeted 250 dunums are needed by Israel to continue its Eastern Gate Project that connects Ma'ale Adumim and the French Hill settlement at the heart of Jerusalem city. These lands are located between Al Issawiya's eastern entrance and the village of Al Za'ayem located to the east of Al Issawiya. These lands are added to more than 3,000 dunums confiscated earlier for the sake of Ma'ale Adumim settlement. The Israeli plan calls for the geographical continuity between Mishor Adumim, Al Khan Al Ahmar settlements, the Israeli queries located on Abu George Street, Anatot, Almon, Anata and Hizma as indicated by location number 3 on the attached aerial photo.\n(aerial photo 1- confiscated locations)\nSpeaking to LRC field worker, Mr. Hani Al Issawi, a land owner from the village, pointed out that the eastern section (between 'Anata and the tunnel of the Mount of Olives) of the Eastern Gate Project is planned to go through 1 kilometer in Al Issawiya village land. So far, half kilometer has been constructed causing a loss of 50 dunums of Issawiya village lands.\nAnother incident that shows the Israeli determination to confiscate as much land as possible from Al Issawiya village land is what happened with Mr. Ziad Al Issawi who received a military order stating the confiscation of 500 square meters of his land located northeast Mizadot Adumim military camp. The military order gave the land owner only 7 days to object to the decision which he did through his lawyer. The appeal was rejected based on a statement by Israeli officials that the land is confiscated for a temporary period of time. ( See location number 2 on the attached aerial photo). ).\nThe tragedy took place when the Israeli forces came to execute the order. Instead of bulldozing the 500 m2 as indicated in the Military Order, they bulldozed 5,000 m2 (ten times the area dictated by the Order).\nFalse Israeli Promises:\nIt must be reported that in April 2002 Israeli authorities issued a confiscation order of 41 dunums that belonged to Al Issawiya village under the pretext that the land is to be used for establishing a temporary checkpoint. Land owners (from the Dari and Derbas families) filed an appeal against the confiscation order at the Israeli High Court which issued on 18/7/2002 an order allowing the establishment of the checkpoint for one renewable year if the current security situation was to continue. The court decision also obliged the Israeli military to pay an annual rent for the land, and allowed land owners to access the rest of the land at their leisure. ( See location number 1 the on the attached aerial photo). ).\nThe decision was a big lie since the 500 m2 land was duplicated to 5000 m2. The checkpoint which was supposed to be temporary one, was transformed into a permanent cement castle, not only for one year as stipulated by the Court's decision.\nDividing the Village into parts:\nIt is obvious that the village of Al Issawiya and its lands has been a prime target for Israeli expansion; 800 dunums of its lands were confiscated for the purpose of the expanding the Hebrew University, Hadasah Hospital and the Israeli military camp built at the southern outskirts of the village. Moreover, a military order was issued preventing Palestinians from constructing more than two floors or from planting trees more than 1.5 meters high in a radius of 500 meters from the checkpoint. This meant the prevention of house construction in the southern half of the village which led to the demolishing of a number of houses. Furthermore, the Israeli occupation forces have confiscated in the past 600 dunums of the villages' lands for the purpose of expanding the French Hill settlement and established a bypass road that divided the village into two parts:\nThe First part is located to the east of the bypass road and reaches as far as the Al Khan Al Ahmar with an area of 10,000 dunums. This half is classified as ''West Bank Lands''. About 3,000 dunums of this half were confiscated for future expansion of Ma'ale Adumim settlement while Jerusalem Municipality kept to itself the right to use an area along the bypass road with a depth of 150 to 200 meters inside the village.\nThe Second Half is located to the west of the bypass road of an area of 2,000 dunums, only 680 dunums of which can be used for the village's Master Plan. The remaining dunums which were left outside the Master Plan zone has many houses built on it without proper licenses to confront the ever-increasing housing demands as more than 40 houses were demolished in the village.\nThe Israeli practices against the village of Al Issawiya (including land confiscation, house demolition and other racist measures) aim at Judaizing Jerusalem city and preventing the natural expansion of the village.\nThree Palestinian villages are besieged by Israeli planning schemes\n\u201cSignificant Paradoxes\u201d\nThe Israeli Settlements Spread as Mold in the Occupied Palestinian Territory\nIsraeli Occupation Plans to Destroy Khirbet Beit Skarya\nThe Strangulation of Beit Jala City\nA new Israeli master plan for Khirbet Jubara confines Palestinian construction\nIsraeli Plan to build 770 housing units in the Israeli Settlement of Gilo",

They must dedicate themselves and remember that these elections will determine the content, pace and direction of transformation of our communities. We expect them to be accessible and accountable to the people they serve through regular report back and feedback meetings in communities.\nCOSATU expects these mayoral candidates to be driven by the commitments made by the ANC Manifesto , like ensuring that municipal services remain the core function of municipalities. We will support them because we expect them to discourage municipalities from outsourcing the basic services they are able to render themselves. They must work to build the capacity of their respective municipalities with a view to reducing outsourcing of municipal services.\nThey must ensure that they promote local procurement of goods and services to increase local production of goods and also promote Youth Employment .The federation will fight and campaign for their election so that they can intensify the fight against fraud and corruption in local government. They must do this by mobilising communities to play an active role in fighting fraud and corruption.\nWe expect them to build and develop an activist local government that will ensure that clinics are built, maintained and equipped appropriately to provide affordable quality health services and to be ready for the implementation of NHI.\nCOSATU is calling for calm and an end to the ongoing political killings and violence that is taking place throughout the country.

The federation calls for cooler heads to prevail and urges all members of the ANC to rally behind all those on the lists and campaign for an overwhelming ANC victory.\nWe call on law enforcement agencies to work hard to stop the anarchy by arresting the perpetrators of violence.

        "raw_content": "NHI only way to end present racialised health regime \u2013 SAFTU\nPatrick Craven |\nFederation welcomes PSI conference on national health insurance\nSAFTU welcomes PSI conference on NHI\nThe South African Federation of Trade Unions stands fully in support of the long-overdue introduction of a national health insurance (NHI) system, and welcomes this week\u2019s conference convened by Public Service International to discuss how the unions should intervene in the process.\nSAFTU is clear that the NHI is the only way to end the present, disastrous and racialised two-tier health regime which provides top-class service to the wealthy white majority but a dysfunctional, understaffed and underfunded service to the overwhelming poor black majority.\nThe South African Constitution\u2019s Bill of Rights, Section 27, headed \u201cHealth care, food, water and social security\u201d could not be clearer:\n(1) Everyone has the right to have access to \u2014\n(a) health care services, including reproductive health care;\n(b) sufficient food and water; and\n(c) social security, including, if they are unable to support themselves and their dependants, appropriate social assistance.\n(2) The state must take reasonable legislative and other measures, within its available resources, to achieve the progressive realisation of each of these rights.\n(3) No one may be refused emergency medical treatment.\nIt is just as clear that the government is not complying with any of these requirements. The Esedimeni scandal was the worst possible proof that those most in need of the protection promised by Section 27 were fatally denied any access to humane treatment.\nAt least 144 patients died and 28 remain missing, following the transfer of 1700 mental health patients out of Life Esidimeni facilities into ill-equipped and mainly unlicensed NGOs, which Justice Moseneke referred to in his arbitration report as \u201cdeath traps of sites of torture\u201d.\nAppalling though this case was it was just the tip of the iceberg of the cruelty inflicted on poor patients in public hospitals, clinics and community healthcare. Despite the heroic efforts of underpayed and overworked staff, patients face long queues and overcrowding, and dirty buildings which have even led to deaths from multi-drug resistant bacterial infections.\nGauteng Health MEC, Gwen Ramakgopa, recently reported that the provincial health department is facing a \u201ccritical shortage of skilled nursing personnel\u201d. Tembisa Hospital in Gauteng only has 40% of the nurses that it requires. The Bongani Hospital in the Free State has one nephrology sister to attend to patients suffering from kidney diseases, despite health norms and standards indicating that hospitals should have nine.\nStaff at state hospitals have had enough. Workers at Baragwanath Academic Hospital have marched to demand the acting CEO to step down, filling of vacant posts, fair employment opportunities for everyone, corrupt officials to be removed and the release of a long-held report of an investigation into rife corruption at the hospital, which has crippled health-care service at the facility to the ground for far too long and led to sub-standard healthcare at the facility to patients.\nThis disastrous situation is getting worse and inequality is getting wider, with more budget cuts for the state facilities, while the profit-based private health sector gets richer. South Africa currently spends 8.7% of its GDP on health. 4.5% of is spent on private healthcare for around 16% of South Africans, while only 4.2% of GDP is spent on public healthcare, for 84% of South Africans!\nThe National Health Insurance scheme is intended to end this outrageous bias in favour of the rich. Resources were to be allocated purely on medical grounds so that every South Africa would have the right to the same best-possible level of treatment and care.\n\u201cThe NHI is fundamentally about social justice\u201d said President Ramaphosa on 24 August, \u201cProviding universal and quality health care for all is not only a matter of moral principle\u2026 The National Health Insurance is meant to ensure that all our people, black and white, rich and poor, receive the quality health services they need without the imposition on them of financial hardship. Our people should be able to access a comprehensive range of health services, including prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and others. These services \u2013 no matter who is providing them \u2013 should be of good quality\u201d.\nThe danger is however that these fine words will not lead to any fundamental change for the better, as powerful vested interests in the private sector, private hospitals and medical aid copanies are mounting a furious campaign to sabotage the the National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill and the Medical Aid Schemes Amendment Bill which are to be put to Parliament.\nThe right-wing Free market Foundation and the Institute of Race Relations have joined in, and the white, sweetheart union Solidarity has claimed that \u201cResearch found more than 80% of healthcare professionals don\u2019t believe the NHI could work, and would consider migration if it is implemented\u201d.\nIt is crucial therefore that trade unions and civil society launch a mass counter-attack and the PSI conference must be the launching pad. The July Working-Class Summit demanded sufficient time for full community and worker consultation on the NHI Bills; SAFTU and its allies will make submissions, raise awareness, share information and mobilise their members and civil society organisations to produce mandated responses to the Bills.\nBut while it is right and necessary to provide time for public consultation on the two bills, this must be made an excuse for more delays. It is alarming that Aaron Motsoaledi has said that the NHI will only be fully implemented by 2026.\nWorkers are impatient for change and should not have to wait until 2026.\nIt has already taken far too long to move on the NHI, which was first adopted in 2007 at the ANC Polokwane Conference, which resolved to \u201creaffirm the implementation of the National Health Insurance System by further strengthening the public health care system and ensuring adequate provision of funding\u201d.\nThat is why the NHI must from now on be right at the top of the government\u2019s list of priorities and speed up. SAFTU will do everything possible to end the scandal of the current unequal and racist two-tier system and fight for free, quality and equal health care for all.\nIssued by Patrick Craven, SAFTU Acting Spokesperson, 28 August 2018\nWe are determined to prove the NHI is affordable - Cyril Ramaphosa\nResearch shows proposed NHI renders health care practitioners uncertain \u2013 Solidarity\nNHI: State cares more about ideology than about its people \u2013 Solidarity",

        "raw_content": "Some Sadducees, those who say there is no resurrection, came to him and asked him a question, \u201cTeacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man\u2019s brother dies, leaving a wife but no children, the man shall marry the widow and raise up children for his brother. Now there were seven brothers; the first married, and died childless; then the second and the third married her, and so in the same way all seven died childless. Finally the woman also died.\nIn the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will the woman be? For the seven had married her.\u201d Jesus said to them, \u201cThose who belong to this age marry and are given in marriage; but those who are considered worthy of a place in that age and in the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. Indeed they cannot die anymore, because they are like angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection. And the fact that the dead are raised Moses himself showed, in the story about the bush, where he speaks of the Lord as the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Now he is God not of the dead, but of the living; for to him all of them are alive.\u201d\nPope Francis continues to draw the world\u2019s attention to those who are poor and in need. He invites us to reach out to others with mercy and compassion. Each of us has a story: each of us has moments of brilliance and success, as well as times we are definitely poor and in need. It is precisely in such moments when we genuinely need the \u201cmercy and compassion\u201d about which Pope Francis speaks.\nToday\u2019s psalm reminds us that the needy will not be forgotten; those afflicted in any way will find hope. Tomorrow\u2019s feast of Christ, the king and center of our lives, invites us to bring that part of our hearts that is afflicted or in need to the heart of Jesus. So what would happen if I invite Jesus into that part of myself where I experience doubt and shame and fear? What difference would there be if I let Jesus transform my anxieties and fears precisely through his life-giving mercy and holy compassion? And could it be that my own heart and soul become healed when I extend the compassion of Jesus, the mercy and hope of Jesus to those I live with and work with, to those I meet at work and on the street, or wherever my daily routine takes me? Come, Lord Jesus, let me be your hands and heart; help me share your mercy and compassion!\nChrist has no body now but yours; no hands, no feet on earth, but yours.\nYours are the feet with which He walks to do good;\nYours are the hands with which He blesses all the world.",

        "raw_content": "Praying for the grace we seek\nThe woman in today\u2019s Gospel reminds me of every young child I have ever met, determined to get his or her way through sheer determination and the gradual wearing down of exasperated parents. Although we are no longer small children asking for a piece of candy, a new toy, or an extra story at bedtime, the desires of our heart are still things that we should bring to God, who loves us even more than any earthly parent can.\nIn the Spiritual Exercises, St. Ignatius invites us to name the grace that we seek, that which we want and desire, at the beginning of each prayer period. In asking for what we desire, though, we must be attentive to God\u2019s answer. Perhaps the grace we are granted may look different than what we expect. A prayer for increased patience might be answered through those people in our lives who irritate us, requiring a greater dose of patience than we knew we contained.\nWhat is the grace that you need from God today? How can you be attentive to the ways that grace may be given to you?\nLord God, we know that you bless us with an abundance of graces. Help us to recognize the gifts you have given us, even when they come in unexpected ways. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.",

        "raw_content": "Panathinaikos OPAP receives Olympiacos Piraeus at OAKA for a spot in the Cup Final, scheduled for next Sunday, February 17. The winner of the clash will face either Kymi or PAOK, rivals in the other semifinal. Kilpatrick will try to help the \u201cGreens\u201d in domestic competition and also in the Euroleague, where all odds are against them. Comprising a poor 9-13 record, the team coached by Rick Pitino can count mostly on mathematical calculations rather than realism, as far as their future in Europe is concerned.\nThe 29-year-old guard did not only participate in the first All-Star Game of his career, but also managed to assist his friend Octavius Ellis in his effort to win the slam dunk contest. The latter\u2019s alley-oop style dunk proved to be enough to help him capture the award, while David Blatt, Rick Pitino, Luca Banchi and Argyris Pedoulakis served as the judges for this year\u2019s contest.\nKilpatrick and Ellis have at least two things in common, apart from the fact that they\u2019re playing in Greece at the moment: they coincided at the University of Cincinnati in the 2011\u20132012 campaign and both went undrafted; Kilpatrick in the 2014 NBA draft and Ellis two years later.\nAbout an hour after the exhibition game, in which the \u201cGreek team\u201d (featuring Spanoulis and Calathes) prevailed over the \u201cWorld Stars\u201d team, Kilpatrick took the time to answer some questions for TalkBasket.net, regarding himself, Panathinaikos and the fundamental differences between the NBA and European ball.\nQ: How was your first All-Star-Game experience?\nA: Good. It was great to see the fans here and be able to see also guys from the Greek League. That\u2019s a pretty unique thing, especially for being out here in Greece.\nQ: You also helped your guy out, Octavius Ellis, in the dunk contest.\nA: Yes, we went to the school together (University of Cincinnati). Actually, the day I came here, it was so good to see a guy like that doing so well. He\u2019s come a long way and I\u2019m really proud of him. it was nice to help him win the slam dunk contest.\nQ: What did you tell him after he won?\nA: He didn\u2019t say anything. He\u2019s very quiet. I was the one who said: \u201cHell, yes!\u201d. He\u2019s always been athletic. So, he told me where to throw the ball to him and that\u2019s what I did.\nQ: However, Thanassis Andetokounmpo was a hard rival for him.\nA: Yes, that\u2019s what Thanassis does. The sick part is that I told him he should let me throw something up for him. For them two to have a duel in the dunk contest, it was pretty nice.\nQ: Now that the exhibition games and the contests are over, you\u2019ll get back to your routine with the team. The clich\u00e9 question of the last weeks is whether Panathinaikos OPAP can reverse the situation and qualify to the Euroleague play-offs.\nA: Right now, we\u2019re in a tough spot. We are sitting here trying to rack up some more wins. We know it\u2019s a desperational situation, but the most important thing right now is to try to get everyone back healthy. We\u2019ve had a lot of guys hurt. For us to make a run, we need everyone healthy. We got Olympiacos on Wednesday and we\u2019re focusing on that game right now.\nQ: Are you looking forward to your first Greek derby?\nA: Yes, it\u2019s a rival game. I\u2019m kind of looking forward to seeing that crowd. I never really experienced something like this coming here from overseas and being able to see how the fans are. Every arena we go to, the fans are amazing, but I would say that our fans are the best out here in Europe. It will be nice to see what they have in store for us on Wednesday.\nQ: How is your transition from the US to Greece going so far?\nA: I\u2019m still adjusting. My wife and my teammates help me with the process. There are young guys on the team that call me a rookie and I\u2019m older than them. It\u2019s crazy to be able to experience a thing like this.\nQ: As a player have you figured out what you have to do in order to adjust to European basketball?\nA: No, you can\u2019t really adjust because every team has a different scheme. So, you will keep having different teams throwing different things at you. I was talking to a friend the other day about what Luka Doncic said, that it\u2019s a lot harder to score over here compared to the NBA. I would say the exact same thing: Over here, it\u2019s a lot harder. You have centers basically packing in, when in the NBA everything is so much spread out. It\u2019s totally different.\nQ: In the same vein, a few minutes ago, Rick Pitino repeated that Panathinaikos OPAP needs 3-4 good shooters. I guess this goes for every team.\nA: Yes, every Euroleague team should have several shooters. Otherwise, it\u2019s hard to score. That\u2019s why there\u2019s a lot of low-scoring games. There aren\u2019t a lot of scorers who can shoot well. The outside shot is very crucial because everyone packs the paint. This means that you can never undervalue its importance.\nQ: Do you believe that your career in Europe will go on after next summer?\nA: Well, I don\u2019t know. I can\u2019t plan everything. Who knows what my agent is going to end up doing with me this summer? I would love to stay here with Panathinaikos, but once the contract it\u2019s over, there\u2019s going to be a lot of teams in the NBA that will reach out to me. Everyone knows that a team is going to end up calling me to see what it is that I want. I don\u2019t see it as a situation where I\u2019m stuck in one place. Right now, I\u2019m focused on what\u2019s being going in Panathinaikos.",

        "raw_content": "Posted in Book'ish'ness, ranting on 12:21 PM by\nI'm not sure where I read it, but somewhere along the lines someone told me that the blurb of a book isn't actually meant to help the reader. The single purpose of a blurb is to sell the book. Now some may argue that the blurb tells you what the book is about to convince you to read it, but there's a difference between reading a book, and buying a book.\nAnd the difference is this-take the story of Romeo + Juliet-imagine you've read it and you're recommending it to a friend- you might say\n\"oh I read this really great book, its actually a play in the Shakespearean style about a boy and a girl from warring families that fall in love....it's very emotional and real and even though there are language barriers, it's still captivating and I really enjoyed it\"\nEssentially this gives you all the information you need about the story, it's a love story, its by Shakespeare and it's good.\nNow if you were to go back and pretend Romeo & Juliet was just coming out I imagine the blurb would read something like this\n\"Romeo is a young Italian man, living his life, carefree and impetuous, unconcerned with anything but having fun. Until he meets Juliet, a beautiful girl at an elaborate party he and his cousins have snuck into. He falls in love with her on sight, beginning a story of love, feuds and revenge, for unbeknownst to Romeo, Juliet is a Capulet, and Romeo's sworn enemy. In trying to organise their secret marriage, Romeo is banished from the kingdom and Juliet takes a drug to make her look dead so they can be together forever. Romeo, inconsolable, kills himself upon her body in the tomb just as she awakes.\nA tale of lust, revenge and star crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet is a timeless story\"\nAnd blah blah blah. (give me a break its my first blurb I've ever written).\nI have a rule, once you start to read the book, never read the blurb. Because it ALWAYS gives away the story. And it drives me crazy!\nWicker, particularly, I think has a terrible blurb. Talk about condensing the story! It also has this rambling quality \"imagine this-and now this-now that\" ridiculous.\nI used to write book blurbs ...\nIt's not a book blurb, but this summary of the Wizard of Oz never fails to crack me up anyway:\n\"Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers to kill again.\"\nHahaha that pretty good, I guess it's essentially all poetic licensing isn't it?\nI\u2019ve read books, who\u2019s blurb boasts a far better blurb than book and a blurb who\u2019s book I might as well not have read.\nWhat gets me is reviews from other authors, I don\u2019t know why but it really burns by biscuits\u2026\nI\u2019m reading \u2018How to kill your husband (and other handy household hints)\u2019 by Kathy Lette.\nOn the front cover, is a \u2018review\u2019 (if it could be called that) from Janet Evanovich simly saying \u201cA hilarious novel\u201d \u2013 it\u2019s like the poor little cover designer stood on Janet Evanovich\u2019s stoop and asked her what she thought of it when she was leaving the house one day.\nThat\u2019s shite.\nRiona-that's hilarious. I love it.\nRe- I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. And the authors in the same genre just kill me. Like authors have SO much time to be reading every competitor's manuscripts!!\nAnd Having a book's cover say \"Chilling\"-Stephen King, doesn't actually make me buy it, because I'm so cynical about it all.\nWhereas if it has a Newspaper reviewers name or something, I am more likely to be persuaded. Hear that Publishing Execs!!!!\nroflrofl. i think the blurb can do both! and it acheives both. but you up the top you are an awaesome writer for your firt blurb im doing home work for english and i had to write a blurb for romeo and juliet and it helped me alot! thanks\nlove yas.!",

The activity will address cords and drawstrings in clothes for small children (0 \u2013 7 years), older children (7 \u2013 14 years) and in disguise costumes for children.\nThere is a general concern among experts in child safety about cords and drawstrings because they present a risk for strangulation to children. The accidents appear to be very serious in most cases. Additionally, the first PROSAFE joint action showed a very high number of children's clothes with cords and drawstring in them. Since then it has become apparent that disguise costumes for children may share some of the same issues with long cords and drawstrings. The risk arising from children wearing these clothes may be even higher than for ordinary clothes as disguise costumes are more likely to be worn during play.\nTo develop best practices and exchange with carrying out market surveillance activities for cords and drawstrings;\nTo help ensure that children\u2019s clothing placed on the EU market are safe with regard to cords and drawstrings;\nTo follow-up the previous Joint Action on Cords and Drawstrings from 2008 to see if the improvements from then has remained;\nTo further share and develop the tools and best practices that were developed in the previous Joint Action;\nTo gain experience with following up a market surveillance activity which will be especially important in light of the movement towards establishing a multi-annual European level market surveillance programme.\nFour meetings will be organised in this project, where the participants will be invited to share experiences and best practices and to discuss problems encountered during the inspections. Laboratory testing is not planned for in this activity, but it is envisaged that an expert in textile testing will be invited for the two first meetings to train the participants in the necessary testing and to discuss the problems and best practices the participants have encountered during the work.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Seven Ways Universities Commonly Fail to Comply with Bayh-Dole\nFaux Bayh-Dole and Stanford v Roche \u2192\nHere is a bit of guidance regarding research agreements from the University of California Office of the President regarding sponsored research:\nFederally funded research has special provisions on rights to inventions. Pursuant to federal statute, known as the Bayh\u2013Dole Act, UC is entitled to take title to inventions arising from federally funded research; however, it must grant non-exclusive use rights to the Government. Also, if UC decides not to file a patent application on an invention or will not otherwise commercialize it, UC is required to return patent rights to the federal government.\nI have highlighted some portions of this advice. Let\u2019s work through these.\nHas special provisions. There are indeed special provisions that come into play. The standard patent rights clause sets out four requirements. The university agrees to\ndesignate personnel responsible for patent matters.\neducate research personnel about timely disclosure of inventions\nrequire research personnel to make a written agreement to protect the government\u2019s interest in inventions\ntimely report disclosed inventions to the government.\nEverything else in the standard patent rights clause is conditional on what inventors (assign or not) and the federal agency (request or not) decide to do.\nThere\u2019s also a requirement in federal funding agreements involving grants to universities that\u2019s not in the standard patent rights clause called the \u201cproperty trust relationship.\u201d For intangible property, including patents and patent applications, acquired or improved with federal funds, the university agrees to act as a trustee of the property on behalf of the beneficiaries of the federally funded project.\nThis requirement, in 2 CFR 200.316, comes into play when a university uses federal funds as the basis to acquire patent rights\u2013including acquiring those patent rights from the inventors working in the federal project. All that\u2019s required for this to happen is that the university assert that its ownership of inventions is based on the use of federal funds, something that UC\u2019s patent policy asserts as a basis for an ownership claim in inventions (\u201cAn agreement to assign inventions and patents to the University . . . shall be mandatory for all employees . . . who receive gift, grant, or contract funds through the University.\u201d)\nUniversity administrators never point this requirement out, as they simply reject the idea that when a university uses its control of federal funds to force the assignment of inventions made with those funds, it is using federal funds to acquire the invention\u2013the consideration the university \u201cpays\u201d to the inventor for the assignment is the release of the federal funds. They university \u201cbuys\u201d the invention with the federal funds. A university does not have to do this. A university could bargain for invention rights by offering other consideration, such as a share of royalties arising from licensing, along with a commitment to be diligent in marketing and licensing. It\u2019s a choice a university makes with regard to how it acquires rights to patents.\nPursuant to federal statute. The Bayh-Dole Act applies to federal agencies, not to universities. Federal agencies are required to use a standard patent rights clause in funding agreements for research hosted by universities. Agencies may tailor the standard patent rights clause to meet their needs, following the rules set down by Bayh-Dole. Thus, any requirements regarding inventions happen as a result of the patent rights clause included in each funding agreement.\nThe guidance here is deceptive in multiple ways. The guidance makes it appear that the university is constrained by law, when it is a matter of federal contract. Why does that matter? If Bayh-Dole were to apply directly to universities, then a university could simply point to the law and require its personnel, employee or otherwise, to comply with the law. Instead, Bayh-Dole requires a federal contract by which to operate, and that federal contract, a funding agreement, is an agreement between the federal government and the university as a contracting entity. That agreement does not involve university inventors directly, but it does require the university to involve certain university employees (employees other than clerical and nontechnical employees) by making them conditional parties to the funding agreement. This is the purpose of the written agreement requirement in the standard patent rights clause at 37 CFR 401.14(a)(f)(2). That agreement is not between the university and its inventors. Rather, the agreement is a delegation of responsibilities to potential inventors personally, involving rights they hold personally when they invent, with regard to the federal government\u2019s interest, not any university interest, in their inventions.\nAnd here\u2019s a point that often gets lost. A subject invention is a patentable inventions \u201cof the contractor\u201d\u2013that is, an invention owned by a party to the funding agreement. A subject invention is also one made in the \u201cperformance of work\u201d under the funding agreement. The standard patent rights clause is clear that the (f)(2) written agreement is required only of employees (not volunteers, not collaborators, not users of equipment, not students) and furthermore excludes \u201cclerical and nontechnical\u201d employees from the requirement\u2013even if these employees happen also to be trained in the area of the research\u2013their roles as employees excludes them from the requirement. Even if excluded individuals\u2013volunteers, clerical workers, and the like\u2013were to invent, they would not be doing so in the \u201cperformance of work\u201d under the funding agreement, as there is no basis in that agreement to expect that such individuals were hired or commissioned to invent as part of the \u201cplanned and committed\u201d activities of the federally funded project. Thus, whatever claims a university might have on those inventions, the claim does not arise from anything to do with Bayh-Dole. They are not subject inventions; there are no special provisions regarding them.\nUC is entitled to take title. Bayh-Dole does not vest title to subject inventions in universities, does not mandate that they take title, does not give them a right of first refusal, does not prohibit inventors from assigning to anyone but the university, and does not give the university the right to take anything. All these variants have been asserted as a a matter of Bayh-Dole, and they are all self-serving fantasies of patent administrators and their mercenary legal advisors. The Supreme Court in Stanford v Roche made that perfectly clear.\nDespite the redundant word play, this bit of guidance is simply untrue\u2013deliberately untrue, negligently untrue, deceptively untrue. Take your pick. Bayh-Dole does not give UC any right to \u201ctake title\u201d to subject inventions. The US Supreme Court in Stanford v Roche was adamant on this point. Universities have a conditional right under the standard patent rights clause to choose (\u201celect\u201d) to retain title to subject inventions they have otherwise acquired, but they must acquire inventions in the established manner, by entering into an agreement with the inventors.\nBut this UC guidance, at the Office of the President, ignores the Supreme Court ruling and persists in the assertion that federal law grants the university the right to simply take whatever personal property from inventors that it wants take. For a state instrument, which UC is, this assertion amounts to a conspiracy to deny rights\u2013a violation of 18 USC 241:\nIf two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same . . . they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both . . . .\nIn essence, the University of California Office of the President by asserting this guidance aims to deny to citizens of California (among others) their rights in inventions, secured to them by the Constitution. All that\u2019s needed it so show that at least two people were involved in drafting and approving this text. (See 42 USC 1983 for the right to civil action for damages.) There\u2019s no excuse for this sort of language to persist anywhere in UC\u2019s policies or guidance. Whether it is inattention, indifference, ignorance, negligence, incompetence, or cleverness, it\u2019s all a matter of contempt for the Supreme Court\u2019s decision.\nOtherwise commercialize it. This is a sneaky part. The standard patent rights clause authorized by Bayh-Dole has a conditional part\u2013if a university (or other organization) obtains assignment of a subject invention from the inventor(s), then the university is obligated to file a patent application, prosecute that application, and maintain any patent that issues. But there\u2019s nothing in Bayh-Dole regarding an \u201cotherwise\u201d option to \u201ccommercialize\u201d without filing a patent application. But the guidance here sets up the idea that UC could decide not to file a patent application but still attempt to \u201ccommercialize\u201d the invention\u2013that\u2019s the effect of the \u201cor\u201d in the clause.\nThe standard patent rights clause requires a university that has acquired the right to ownership of a patent on a subject invention to file a patent application and attempt to obtain that patent. There is no \u201cotherwise\u201d involving commercialization. The wording here is consistent with what a university might try to push past its inventors in its own policy\u2013that a university owns inventions but does not have to use patents if it can \u201ccommercialize\u201d the invention without them\u2013\u201cotherwise.\u201d That\u2019s what happens, for instance, with some biomaterials and software. But this \u201cotherwise\u201d is not an option under the standard patent rights clause.\nThere is an \u201cotherwise\u201d that does matter, however, though it is not in the UC guidance. A university can meet its obligation to achieve \u201cpractical application\u201d of a subject invention either by promoting the use of the invention or promoting the \u201ccommercialization\u201d of the invention\u2013or both. There\u2019s nothing in Bayh-Dole that requires federal agencies to make universities \u201ccommercialize\u201d subject inventions\u2013but universities must make efforts to achieve \u201cpractical application.\u201d Thus, UC, once it has obtained ownership of a subject invention. might use the invention itself so that the benefits of the invention are available to the public on reasonable terms, or UC might seek to make the invention available broadly for use by others, or might license the invention for development as a commercial product, or do multiple of these things in parallel. If UC declines to do any of them, however, then it cannot achieve practical application of the invention, and fail the conditions established by the standard patent rights clause. But such thinking appears to be too difficult for UC\u2019s Office of the President to contemplate or express.\nThere are two conditional commitments under the standard patent rights clause for any organization acquiring title to a subject invention: (i) to seek a US patent; (ii) to seek practical application. The requirements on each commitment in the standard patent rights clause have distinct remedies for failure. Failure to seek a patent involves a situation in which the government may request title. Failure to achieve practical application involves a situation in which the government may exercise \u201cmarch-in\u201d rights and compel the university to grant one or more licenses or license the invention itself.\nReturn patent rights. More cleverness here. There are three pivot points in play. The first is when UC learns of an invention and has to decide whether to request title or having obtained title decides it does not care to retain that title. The second is when UC, having acquired title, decides that it doesn\u2019t have the will to go through with the patenting process. The third has to do with UC\u2019s failure to report a subject invention or notify the government with regard to UC\u2019s interest in retaining title to the invention. Let\u2019s look at each.\nDeciding about title. UC, until recently, had a policy that mandated a review of each disclosed invention for circumstances before any decision was made to require the assignment of the invention to the university. Under such a protocol, the inventor owns rights in her invention until she assigns those rights in a written instrument. If UC declines to manage a disclosed invention, and therefore does not acquire title to the invention, then the inventor and federal agency work out management using 37 CFR 401.9 as the standard patent rights clause. Or, if the federal agency desires to obtain title, it can request that title in reliance of the (f)(2) written agreement that the university must require its potential research inventors to establish the government\u2019s rights in subject inventions.\nBut UC has botched up its patent policy with present assignment language. This makes a greater garbled mess of an already garbled mess of policy. Now it appears that all inventions are automagically assigned to UC when they are made, it\u2019s just that UC has no clue what these inventions might be until they are disclosed and reviewed for the circumstances. So the \u201cwritten instrument\u201d of the \u201cPatent Acknowledgement\u201d that is really a mislabeled patent agreement has an almost entirely indefinite scope. It\u2019s not at all clear that it operates as an assignment that would be acceptable to the US Patent and Trademark Office. So, it\u2019s garbled.\nBut if the present assignment wording does operate to transfer title in subject inventions from inventors to the university, then UC by administrative decree skips over the first pivot point in the standard patent rights clause. It is UC\u2019s policy then to ensure administrative complexity and wasted effort when none need exist. Adding to complexity and effort is of course bureaucratically self-serving, but does nothing to advance innovation, research enterprise, or the objectives of Bayh-Dole. But why waste a opportunities for bureaucratic growth created by a poorly written law?\nNot patenting. The second pivot point has to do with pulling out of an effort to obtain a patent. In such cases, the standard patent rights clause provides that the government can obtain title to the subject invention\u2013but only by request.\nScrewing up. If UC screws up and fails to report a subject invention or fails to notify the federal government that it has elected to retain title in a subject invention it has otherwise acquired, then again the federal government can request title.\nThere is nothing in these situations, however, that requires UC to \u201creturn\u201d patent rights. Here\u2019s the language of the standard patent rights clause:\nThe contractor will convey to the Federal agency, upon written request, title to any subject invention\u2014\nThere is nothing that requires the university to \u201creturn rights\u201d and nothing as well that requires a federal agency to require the assignment of rights. A federal agency has to request the rights in writing.\nBut there\u2019s more to it. UC\u2019s guidance makes it appear that somehow the federal government has rights to start with, and if UC is not going to file a patent application (or \u201cotherwise\u201d commercialize), then somehow UC has to \u201creturn\u201d rights that it obtained from the federal government. But UC has not gotten any patent rights from the federal government\u2013it obtained those rights from inventors. The UC policy guidance here is in denial (or complete ignorance) about the requirements of the standard patent rights clause and where the university has obtained patent rights. Perhaps university administrators have been filled with a fantasy that Bayh-Dole suspended common law inventors\u2019 rights in the ownership of inventions made with federal funds, so that a subject invention wasn\u2019t owned at all until a university \u201ctook\u201d ownership out of thin air. The US Supreme Court made clear this is just a fantasy, and that inventors do own their inventions made with federal support. But UC policy folks don\u2019t appear concerned to update their guidance, so the fantasy persists.\nA well constructed university patent policy, one that aims to make efficient work of the standard patent rights clause, defers any university claim on subject inventions until the university has made a decision to file a patent application and seek practical application. If the university won\u2019t do these things, then it should not ask for title. Then disposition of the subject invention is subject to the (f)(2) agreement and the patent rights clause at 37 CFR 401.9. Such a policy greatly reduces the administrative overhead in managing subject inventions. Such a policy also preserves inventors\u2019 invention rights, subject to a negotiation with a federal agency.\nIf a university\u2013say, UC\u2013obtains an invention under its own policy, then under that policy (or under an assignment agreement), it can also \u201creturn\u201d the invention to the inventors. Here\u2019s UC\u2019s policy statement on the matter:\nIn the absence of overriding obligations to outside sponsors of research, the University may release patent rights to the inventor in those circumstances when: (1) the University elects not to file a patent application and the inventor is prepared to do so, or (2) the equity of the situation clearly indicates such release should be given, provided in either case that no further research or development to develop that invention will be conducted involving University support or facilities, and provided further that a shop right is granted to the University.\nIn the case of Bayh-Dole\u2019s standard patent rights clause, UC has no \u201coverriding obligation\u201d to the federal government. If UC does not file a patent application or decides that the \u201cequity of the situation\u201d indicates a \u201crelease,\u201d then UC can \u201crelease\u201d (i.e., re-assign) the invention to the inventors. (Back before the present assignment garble, \u201crelease\u201d actually meant \u201crelease.\u201d Another example of UC\u2019s weaselness in saying that inserting the present assignment in the Patent Acknowledgement was not a \u201cchange\u201d in policy\u2013the words in the policy didn\u2019t change\u2013but their meaning sure did.) Once the invention is back with the inventors, then their (f)(2) written agreement controls, and the relationship is between the inventors and the federal agency. Of course, that won\u2019t work at UC, since UC refuses to comply with the (f)(2) requirement.\nUC\u2019s guidance makes it appear that inventors can never get their rights back. Once UC has the rights to an invention, so the policy goes, the only alternative is that UC \u201creturns\u201d the rights to the federal government. Inventors are entirely cut out of the discussion. This gambit makes it appear to inventors that their only hope of having some benefit from their inventions is to rely on UC\u2019s generous invention management program. This, of course, is a false dichotomy, but one that again creates the illusion that inventors must work with UC or kiss their inventions good-bye. Not so. But if the federal government obtains title to a subject invention, it has no obligation to share royalties with any university inventor, so UC\u2019s guidance poses a workable threat to inventors\u2013collaborate with us, or we can toast you.\nNow you can read the UC guidance for yourself, and see how the Office of the President misrepresents Bayh-Dole and the \u201cspecial provisions\u201d on federally funded inventions.\nThis entry was posted in Bayh-Dole, Policy, Present Assignment.

        "raw_content": "Established as a non-government organisation in 1981, Resource Integration Centre (RIC) was founded by a group of distinguished social workers eager to support national development efforts in Bangladesh. Commencing operation with a relief, rehabilitation and financial support program for rural women, RIC developed a traditional focus on rural sector development, targeting, in particular, women. Since that time, through innovation, dedication and hard work, RIC has been able to progress and diversify; to become a national-level NGO active across the country and in many development areas.\nRIC is currently active in 40 districts, encompassing both rural and urban areas of the country, and has successfully implemented development projects involving wide-ranging development aims: from disaster risk reduction to the provision of non-formal education to working children. In particular, RIC is at the forefront of efforts to improve the lives of elderly people in Bangladesh, with few other NGOs designing targeted programmes to recognise the talents and particular needs of this often vulnerable group. The organisation\u2019s success can be attributed to the commitment of its management and staff to a process of continual improvement, and the ability of the organisation to adapt to changes within society and the development sector in pursuit of implementing world\u2019s best practice standards in all its operations.\nToday, RIC has thousands of employees and is able to mobilise many more volunteers to achieve development goals; from the isolated islands of the Bay of Bengal to poverty-stricken neighborhoods in the heart of the capital city, RIC has established a solid reputation based on the achievement of tangible development outcomes. Working together with minority ethnic groups, working children and their guardians, the poor, the landless or the elderly, to name a few of the groups our projects have assisted; and through the formation of strategic alliances and partnerships with all levels of government, donor agencies, other NGOs and stakeholders, RIC has been able to realise its goal of facilitating development for Bangladesh and Bangladeshis.\nRIC has been registered with the concern authority of Bangladesh Government to carry out its functions among the poor and vulnerable community people of Bangladesh. RIC initially registered with the department of Social Welfare and subsequently registered with NGO affairs Bureau to deal with foreign funding and Micro credit Regulatory authority for operating micro- credit and also registered with the NBR as per the provision of income tax ordinance 1984.\nRegistration details are given below\nRegistered with Number\nDepartment of Social Service (DSS) Dha-01164\nNGO Affairs Bureau 177\nMicrocredit Regulatory Authority (MRA) 00349-01375-00167\nTax Identification number (TIN ) 156-400-0035/Cir-56/ Tax zone 05\nBy the fiscal year, 2015-16; Resource Integration Centre (RIC) has successfully completed 16 projects. Around 1.6 million beneficiary people have engaged in RIC\u2019s development programme. Among of them, 727,101 are female, 636,869 are male, children are 59,644 and older people 186,000.\nThe major field of RIC\u2019s programmes are:\nCredit support to the poor and marginalised people for socio-economic developments.\nFood security and Agriculture Development\nPriority based Programme (Women, child, and Older People)\nEnvironment, Climate Change, and Disaster Risk Reduction\nIntegrated Programme (Health, Nutrition, and Education)",

And so, we went to the heart of Chinatown on Mott Street just around the corner from the \u201cbloody angle\u201d on Doyers Street. What\u2019s that? You don\u2019t know about the \u201cbloody angle?\u201d It was the sight of many Tong or gang wars in the early 20th century. Now a peaceful haven of restaurants and shops, its history goes back to the earliest colonial times with Columbus Park being the site of the infamous Five Points. Many of the buildings go back to the 18th and 19th centuries. But the important thing to know is that the Peking Duck is excellent!! And with the meal you get duck soup, which Groucho would love. And the dumplings are excellent, too.\nAfter a meal like that, my friend decided to go home and rest. I, however, decided to walk, so I headed uptown on Mulberry Street through Chinatown across Canal Street, which at one point in NYC history actually was a water-filled canal that emptied into the Collect Pond that people fished and swam in. Having long ago been filled in, I crossed Canal easily and headed into Little Italy, that enclave home of Italian immigrants crammed in just like the Chinese were. And to my luck the street was closed off so I had free range walking uptown. To my surprise, Little Italy seemed to have expanded reversing a multi-decade decline. Vibrant, alive, full of cheerful visitors and gelato, the streets were electric in the late afternoon sun-bathed paths.\nMoving through Little Italy toward the northern section now known as NoLita, I came to Old St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral, the refuge of early Irish immigrants built in 1809, and NYC\u2019s first cathedral before the seat of power moved uptown. Old St. Patrick's is also the scene of the famous baptism segment in the original Godfather movie and also has a role in the Godfather III sequel. But probably more interesting is the 1836 riots that took place there between the \u201cNo-Nothing\u201d Nativists who attacked the Cathedral and the Catholics for being, well, Catholic! Thankfully cooler heads prevailed and the church survives surrounded by a peaceful cemetery.\nCrossing Houston Street and going just a bit west to Lafayette Street, I walked toward the Public Theater just south of St. Mark\u2019s place and Cooper Union. While most of this area is being eaten up by NYU and their ever-growing sprawl, the area itself is home to some very rich history, too. The Theater was originally the Astor mansion. And Cooper Union was the site of Abraham Lincoln\u2019s famous \u201cRight makes Might\u201d speech!\nContinuing up Third Avenue and East 10th Street, you hit Grace Episcopal Church. A beautiful piece of architecture! Finally crossing over to the east side and walking down across Park Avenue to Irving Place and heading north, you find yourself walking up to the only private park in all of Manhattan: Gramercy Park. In order to get into this park, you have to live in one of the cooperatives surrounding the park, and then they give you a key! How cool is that. New York is filled with history and beauty, and as the weather cools off, get out and take a walk, it\u2019s good for the soul and your health!\nBy Lou Pastina",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Roughfishing FAQ\nRoughfishing FAQ\nBy rummykhan on Mon, 03/05/2012 - 12:44\nWhat is Roughfishing?\nThis is a question I get asked a lot. After all, you see me fishing for \"game\" fish such as trout, bass, and pike all the time. How can we call ourselves roughfishers when we enjoy these traditional \"game fishes\"? The answer is that roughfishing is not really about what species you fish for. It's about why you fish. First off, the primary reason for roughfishing is not to get food for the table. Sure, I like a nice smoked cisco on occasion. I'll bake up a tasty drum or boil burbot chunks sometimes. But this is only done where the fish population clearly is in no danger, and when I feel like I've done well and deserve to eat a few. Secondly, roughfishing is about interacting with the aquatic ecosystem. In fishing, one finds a way to become integrated into the natural world, if only for a time, by testing the food chain. Roughfishing allows one to explore an ecosystem down to the last detail, and gain rare knowledge by doing so. Who knew that a hatch of large white mayflies, that occurs in upper mississippi riffles at certain times of the year, draws both smallmouth bass and common carp to feed at the surface together? This is the kind of knowledge a roughfisher seeks. Some day, I might master the art of flyfishing for Blue Suckers. If I did, I'd be the only one in the world to have that knowledge. Likewise, some anglers fish the Mississippi river for years and encounter only a paltry half-dozen species of fish. Those people are blind to the whole richness and diversity of the ecosystem they spend so much time on. Third, roughfishing is about stripping the commercialism out of the sport of fishing. Since nobody knows how to catch northern hog suckers, there aren't sixteen brands of special baits marketed to catch them. You don't need a forty thousand dollar boat and six tackleboxes crammed with commercialized fishing crap to catch them. All you need is an old pair of sneakers and some kind of fishing rod. And you can't just pay a guide to have them put a hog sucker on the end of your line. This is what I mean by pursuing fish \"on their own terms.\" There is a very fine line between \"angling\" and \"harvesting\". With modern technology, we humans could catch every single living fish in the country. We could blast the fish out of the water with dynamite or electricity. Or I could spend millions of dollars buying every sort of gadget on the planet so that I could become such a great fisherman that I'd never get skunked. But that isn't any fun, you don't learn anything from that, and you don't really get the same experience out of it. Roughfishing means bringing yourself down to the level of the fish. You observe nature closely, trying to garner clues about what is going on in the ecosystem right now. Then you come up with a theory, and test it. That flooded marsh next to the river sure looks like a place where a big eel might live - how can we find out? We could drain the marsh and look for eels in the dried up mud. We could invent some strange eel-seeking technological gadget that would guarantee success. We could hire a person to put an eel on your line. Or, we could become a student of the eel. We could research everything possible about where eels live, what they eat, and how they behave. Armed with that knowledge, we could then approach the situation, armed only with simple equipment and a burning desire to find the answer. That is what roughfishing is all about. It's about the challenge of fishing, which is a small subset of the challenge of understanding the whole natural world. It is fishing \"in the rough\" as opposed to fishing in the glitzy, high-tech world of maximum harvest and commercialism.\nWhat are Rough Fish?\nThis is the paradox. Although this site is called roughfish.com, there really is no such thing as a rough fish. Historically, this moniker has been applied to fish that were considered undesirable. But no fish is universally undesirable, so this definition doesn't hold water. I really think that the term \"rough fish\" should be expunged from the language of natural resource management as well as biology. So, the answer to this question is: a roughfish is any fish that you catch while roughfishing, whether it is a brown trout or a bullhead. Or - there's no such thing. Either way, it's not a derogatory term. Instead, it's a term of endearment for a fish which you have caught using only your own personal wits and skill.\nNo. I'm quite sane. I just love fishing too much to limit myself to just trout fishing, or just walleye fishing, or just carp fishing, or whatever. If there are carp, mooneyes, brown trout, northern hog suckers, and smallmouth bass in a given stream, I want to catch them all. I might start with the trout because they're the easiest. They're the easiest because you can find five hundred detailed books about how to do it. But after figuring out the trout, I'll move on, until I've mastered every species in the stream. It can take years, and it's a lot of fun. If the mooneyes fail to cooperate, I'll fall back on the trout, or the bass. If the northern hog suckers happen to be biting like crazy, well, then I'll catch northern hog suckers till my arms fall off or they quit biting. Or maybe I'll feel like fishing only for giant brown trout, or giant carp. Whatever I choose, I create my own challenges, and push myself constantly to become a better fisherman, and a better ecologist as well.\nWhy no bowfishing or spearing? It's legal, and I love bowfishing!\nYou have fun with that. Bowfishing and spearing are NOT angling. To catch a fish by angling, you have to have the skill and intelligence to put the hook inside their mouth through some form of trickery. You don't just walk up to them and smack them while they are minding their own business. Now, there's nothing wrong with spearing and bowfishing, I'm sure it's fun and everything, but if you want to blather about all the giant fish you shot or speared, please go somewhere else. You won't be missed.\nWhat about small minnows and chubs? I love fishing for chubs! Why don't chubs count for the contest?\nNo, I like chubs, and even fish for them intentionally quite a bit. But there are many, many hundreds of species of small fish in America. They outnumber the larger species ten to one. Take a look at the \"Minnows and Allies\" section on the species page, and try to tell me you can tell them all apart by sight. They cannot be identified reliably except by trained biologists, and even we can't do it without having a physical specimen. Fishing for small minnows is good sport and a great way to get free, native live bait. But having all the small species of fish as part of the contest would never work. If you are competing in a species contest and are offended that your minnow species doesn't count, I would recommend putting it on an 8/0 circle hook immediately.\nHow do you decide which fish are \"Micro\" and which are \"Standard\"?\nThere are many factors, but it basically comes down to whether the fish commonly grows to over a pound in weight.\nI like to snag roughfish! Why don't you talk about snagging here?\nSnagging is not angling. It might be fun, it might be ecologically sustainable, and it might be effective, but snagging is not an\ngling - just like bowfishing and spearing are not angling. This is an angling website. You're welcome to have fun with your snagging, spearing and bowfishing - but keep it off our website. We're not interested. In fact, please start your own snagging website (might I recommend www.imasnagger.com? the domain is free for the taking!) so we could refer snaggers to you.\nI went on a great guided trip and caught all kinds of fish! I'm awesome!\nNo, you're not. OK, you could be, but nobody will ever know how awesome you are, because everyone will assume you just reeled in the fish that your guide caught for you while you sat in the shade of an umbrella and drank Pina Colodas. If you caught a new species on a guided trip, it will STILL count on your lifelist. But just like Barry Bonds, you'll have an asterisk next to that species that says you were not able to catch this fish without the help of a professional who is paid thousands of dollars to catch fish for people. By all means, if you can afford it, hire a guide! It's fun and a good way to learn. But don't brag about the fish your guide caught for you, and FOR GOD'S SAKE don't write a ten-thousand-word story about it, because we would rather read about some kid catching bullheads in his Grandpa's pond at the farm than read about your fully-catered bonefish trip in the Marquesas where you had servants prepare fresh Mangos for breakfast and your freaking guide positioned your skiff perfectly in a stiff equatorial wind so you could make your cast. That stuff is for the glossy fishing magazines where they sell idiots all-inclusive vacations.\nNew FAQ?\nEverythingthatswims - Sat, 11/03/2012 - 23:17\nHow about \"How do you catch gizzard shad on hook and line?\" Please!!!\nCheck out my blog @ everythingthatswims.blogspot.com\nI'd like to know that as well...\nandy - Sat, 02/20/2016 - 19:05\nNever caught one myself , despite fishing over hundreds of the buggers.",

        "raw_content": "If You Read One Article About Materials, Read This One\nIt is important for every home to have doors and windows. For this reason, they need to be of high quality. There are several manufacturers specialized in this sector. However, not all of them will provide you with quality products.

You can look for information about the manufacturer from the internet. Check their website to find out what the other customers are say. Go through their reviews to determine if they offer the best services. If you come across may negative reviews, the you will want to look for another manufacture.\nYou should also ensure that the door and window manufacturer you choose has the relevant license. Friends and relatives may also refer you to some of the most reputable contractors.\nThe next factor to consider is the availability of warranty. In the door and window industry, warranty is an essential. Make sure to choose a manufacture who will offer you warranty. Besides their products, they sole also provide warranty on the project. If there is no warranty for the project then you wouldn\u2019t want to pick the contractor. A good door and Window Company should be accountable for its work. Also, the manufacture should provide a project manage whom you can ask relevant questions before, during and even after the onset of the project.\nProduct durability is another important element to look at when choosing the right window and door manufacturer. The best windows and doors should be durable and have a longer warranty period. For this reason, it\u2019s necessary that you do your homework well before making up your mind. A good window and door company will offer installation and maintenance services. In case of an emergency , they should also be ready to provide services like replacement.\nMany buyers never have adequate knowledge when it comes to the materials used for making doors and windows. That is why it is imperative to search more about the available types of materials in the market. Some are made of aluminum, wood, vinyl and also fiber glass. If you are looking to save money whether you are installing new windows and doors or replacing the new ones, you should choose a manufactures offering high energy-efficient products.\nFinding the Right Store For Buying the Best Drain Cleaner in Your City.\nEither you are managing a property as an owner or a property manager one of the worst moment that you can have is when there is a clogged drainage, because it will pollute the air and it will also damage your property. It is therefore important for you to buy a drain cleaner which is a chemical that is used to prevent the blockages of the pipes and drainages and if they are already blocked you can unblock them with that cleaner. There are many stores in your city where you can buy drain cleaners but considering that today there has been a lot of substandard products, in the market you need to ensure that your buying from that store where they are known of selling quality drain cleaners. Discover more in this article where we are going to discuss some of the factors to consider when you are looking for the best store for buying quality drain cleaners,\n1. The prices and the quality of drain cleaners.\nThe quality of the cleaner that a store is selling is one of the most important things that you need to consider before buying you a drain cleaner from any store. In most cases, quality and the prices go hand in hand, and you will find that in that store where they are selling quality cleaners, their prices might be a bit higher.

The case can be even harder for products with a high competition in the market. This is so since buyers tend to be committed to a certain brand and may be hard for them to opt for a new product. When choosing a means to advertise your product, you should be sure of the target groups to help you invest in means that will make it easy for you to appeal to them. With the emerging trends of online sale, you also need to consider having online platforms to advertise a product. This will ensure that numerous clients learn of your product and can place orders. While engaging in marketing a product, ensure you look into the following guideline.\nYou should market your products before they are perfected. Avoid making a costly mistake that is made by many businesses that wait until a product is perfect for them to start marketing. Creating awareness of a product when it appears in the market can be challenging since none knows anything regarding it. This implies that its demand will begin at zero until you engage in its marketing in an attempt to inform potential buyers about it. It is wise for you to make potential consumers to know about your upcoming product even though it may be to minimum extents.\nConsider a method you can measure. Marketing method whose returns cannot be measured is not effective. If you are compelled to make your resources towards a marketing campaign, you should check to ensure its results can be tracked. You should come up with ways through which conversions can be tracked. Run many marketing campaigns distinctly for comparison of marketing channels to know the one working the best. Avoid those that fail to satisfy.\nYou should advertise from many angles. When your brand appears on many platforms, clients will start having a positive perception about it. Hearing info. of your product over and over again makes clients start having faith in your product. With time, the product remains in customers\u2019 mind and will acquire it.\nConsider hosting an event. By hosting an event, you are able to bring people to your physical place. It can be a great way of bringing potential customers in the same location with a product and they are likely to buy. Before you can be able to host fancy and big events, you can host the simplest event like an open house. You can host an event jointly with other ventures in order to bring about large crowds.",

Pac-Man, as I've said many times before, is the first video game I was really, really good at. I used to go to Showbiz Pizza Place all the time to play it, and their were crowds gathered around the machine because it was the big game and everyone wanted to play.\nThis week, \"Weird Al\" Yankovic officially released his song \"Pac-Man\" for the first time in 35 years. A parody of the Beatles song \"Taxman,\" Dr. Demento played it on his show, but it was never released on any album. Instead it circulated, I think, mainly in one of several bootleg collections of songs played on Dr. Demento. It's my favorite of the \"Weird Al\" rarities; it was even my Song of the Week back in January 2009 (and the fan-made video is still there, which surprised me). The combination of two passions of mine, Weird Al and Pac-Man, in a song one hundred thousand times better than \"Pac-Man Fever.\" I just never dug that song. Though I fully and proudly admit to never having cured my Pac-Man Fever. Hell, I play the classic game on my phone now when I'm waiting for appointments.\nHere's the official release. Listen to it. Have some pizza. Get nostalgic, why not? I'd have it as Song of the Week except that I get all weird about repeating myself.\nAlso, this is wonderful confirmation that the upcoming Weird Al box set, Squeeze Box, is going to have these rarities on it. I don't know if people will consider \"Baby Loves Burping\" the lost gem that \"Pac-Man\" is. But I swear I will have this set.\nThanks especially to Roger for making sure that I saw that this was out there!\nLabels: Geekery, Music, On the Subject of Me\nGlad to see some posts from you, and sounding more cheerful! I haven't heard this song since I was in high school and my friends and I would burn cds of all the songs we had gotten off limewire for each other. It's nice to start my morning off with a nostalgia bomb!\nI've been so excited for this box set, the only reason I haven't pre-ordered it yet is I can't figure out if I want it on CD or vinyl. Well, I want it on vinyl but I haven't figured out if I can budget an extra $100 for the vinyl set...\nI had forgotten the song existed; heard it years ago.\nIt combines my THREE passions: Pac Man (although I was better at the Ms.), Weird Al, and BEATLES!",

        "raw_content": "A Message from the District Regarding Lead Testing\nA message from SAN MARCOS UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT\nGood afternoon San Marcos Families,\nAs you may have seen in the media, there was a drinking fountain that was recently removed from San Marcos Middle School after it was discovered to have a higher level of lead than is considered safe.\nIt is critical to San Marcos Unified to ensure that the water used by our students, staff, and community is safe. In addition to having the water tested at all of our school locations, we also wanted to provide information to our community regarding the steps leading up to this action.\nWhat resulted in San Marcos Unified School District conducting tests at three District schools?\nFollowing the event in Flint (Michigan), The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) amended the permit for all public water system in California in order to mandate free lead testing in schools, if requested by the school district.\nWhile not required, Vallecitos Water District notified the District of this new mandate from the SWRCB. The mandate became effective in January 2017.\nWhy did the District choose to test Alvin Dunn Elementary, Richland Elementary, and San Marcos Middle School?\nIn 1986, the use of lead solder was banned from use in joining copper pipes. These three schools were originally constructed prior to 1986. All other schools in the District were constructed or renovated after 1986.\nWhat are the measurement standards?\nThe current standards followed by the Vallecitos Water District were developed and implemented by the United States EPA in 1991. The standards state that the Action Level (AL) for lead is 15 ug/L. This is defined to mean \u201cmicrograms per liter\u201d or \u201cparts per billion\u201d.\nThe Department of Drinking Water regulations state that any results at 15 ug/L or less are considered safe.\nWhat were the results of the tests conducted?\nAt Alvin Dunn Elementary, five samples were collected. All results were below the 15 ug/L Action Level.\nAt Richland Elementary, five samples were collected. All results were below the 15 ug/L Action Level.\nAt San Marcos Middle School, five samples were collected. Four results were below the 15 ug/L Action while one sample was above.\nWhat does this mean and what did the District do?\nIt is important to note that the water received from Vallecitos Water District meets current standards and regulations.\nIn this instance, the sample from a fixture (drinking fountain) at San Marcos Middle School had a higher level greater than 15 ug/L. When the District was notified of the results, the fixture was removed from service.\nThe District is also making arrangements to have additional tests conducted at other locations at San Marcos Middle School.\nHave there been any illnesses reported due to this drinking fountain?\nNo. There have not been any reports of illness that are due to or can be traced back to this drinking fountain.\nWhat can I do if I\u2019m worried about my child having lead poisoning?\nYou can contact the California Department of Public Health \u2013 Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program at 619-692-8487. The best recommendation we can offer is to take your child to their general physician for blood tests.\ntagged with California Department of Public Health, lead, San Marcos Middle School, San Marcos Unified School District, The State Water Resources Control Board, Vallecitos Water District, water",

Unlike, physical health issues, mental health issues cannot be found easily and there are certain times when people don\u2019t know if there are suffering from a mental disorder or not. Mental health is one of the most important factors of life. The lack of knowledge about mental issues needs to be changed. When people are aware of the mental health issues that can arise, the causes and the symptoms, they will be better at handling them. Mental disorders can be treated and if you think that you or a loved one is the victim of a mental condition, there is no need to worry about because the solutions are there for you.\nMental health is nothing that should be messed with because even the slightest mistake made when diagnosing patients and treating them can cause major consequences. Therefore, when you are dealing with any kind of a mental issue, the expert help is a must. Different factors can give rise to mental disorders. Most of these mental diseases can be inherited and the other kinds can be due to any environmental factor. Whether you have had a tragic change in your life that gave rise to a certain mental condition or if it just raised out of nowhere, what you need to focus is on giving the patient the right treatments. With the help of an expert serving in the field of psychotherapy, you can simply find the causes and the solution to the mental distress.\nOne of the most common mental issues that a major is suffering from is anxiety. There are many types of anxieties that can be caused due to many reasons. Also, different forms of anxiety will be shown outwards in different ways. Anxiety is never fun and it will make a certain person live in constant fear. You will not feel good about yourself and whatever that you want to do, you will not be able to do it because the inner you will be holding you back.

        "raw_content": "Beepocalypse Redux: Honeybees Are Still Dying \u2014 and We Still Don\u2019t Know Why\nMore than five years after it was first reported, colony-collapse disorder is still killing honeybees around the world. If scientists can't pinpoint the cause, the economic and environmental damage could be immense\nColony-collapse disorder is wiping out honeybee colonies\nThe honeybees are dying \u2014 and we don\u2019t really know why. That\u2019s the conclusion of a massive Department of Agriculture (USDA) report that came out late last week on colony-collapse disorder (CCD), the catchall term for the large-scale deaths of honeybee groups throughout the U.S. And given how important honeybees are to the food that we eat \u2014 bees help pollinate crops that are worth more than $200 billion a year \u2014 the fact that they are dying in large numbers, and we can\u2019t say why, is very, very worrying.\nCCD was first reported in 2006, when commercial beekeepers began noticing that their adult worker honeybees would suddenly flee the hive, ending up dead somewhere else and leading to the rapid loss of the colony. On normal years, commercial beekeepers might expect to lose 10% to 15% of their colony, but over the past five years, mortality rates for commercial operations in the U.S. have ranged from 28% to 33%. Since 2006 an estimated 10 million beehives worth about $200 each have been lost, costing beekeepers some $2 billion. There are now 2.5 million honeybee colonies in the U.S., down from 6 million 60 years ago. And if CCD continues, the consequences for the agricultural economy \u2014 and even for our ability to feed ourselves \u2014 could be dire. \u201cCurrently, the survivorship of honeybee colonies is too low for us to be confident in our ability to meet the pollination demands of U.S. agricultural crops,\u201d the USDA report said.\nSo what\u2019s causing CCD \u2014 and how can we stop it?\n(MORE: What\u2019s the Buzz: Study Links Pesticide With Honeybee Collapse)\nThe problem is that there doesn\u2019t seem to be a single smoking gun behind CCD. The USDA report points at a range of possible causes, including:\nA parasitic mite called Varroa destructor that has often been found in decimated colonies\nSeveral viruses\nA bacterial disease called European foulbrood that is increasingly being detected in U.S. bee colonies\nThe use of pesticides, including neonicotinoids, a neuroactive chemical\nSince CCD isn\u2019t so much a single disease as it is a collection of symptoms, chances are that some or all of these factors, working in concert, might be behind the disappearance of the honeybees. The presence of the Varroa mite, for instance, can worsen the impact of existing viruses, while the stress of shipping bees back and forth across the country \u2014 increasingly common in commercial beekeeping \u2014 may be amplifying the stress on the insects and leaving them more vulnerable to CCD. (If you think a cross-country flight is rough on you, just imagine what it\u2019s like for a honeybee hive.) The fact that CCD is increasingly seen in other countries as well gives more weight to the notion that there may be multiple factors at work.\nStill, environmentalists have focused most on the potential role of pesticides \u2014 especially the powerful neonicotinoids \u2014 and some lab studies have found that the chemicals can adversely affect bee health. It\u2019s not that the pesticides \u2014 which are aimed at other insects \u2014 are killing the bees outright, but rather that sublethal exposure in nectar and pollen may be interfering with the honeybees\u2019 internal radar, preventing them from gathering pollen and returning safely to the hive.\n(MORE: Wildlife: Where Have All the Bumblebees Gone?)\nThe USDA report mostly withholds judgment on neonicotinoids, citing the need for more research, and the Environmental Protection Agency is conducting a very slow review of the evidence. Last week, though, the E.U., which is also grappling with CCD, decided it was done waiting, and announced a two-year ban on neonicotinoids. The European Commission enacted the ban on the recommendation of the European Food Safety Authority, which said in January that the pesticides should be restricted until scientists had cleared the chemicals of a role in CCD.\nThe chemical industry, unsurprisingly, disputes the finding. Bayer CropScience, a major pesticide manufactuer, said in a statement after the ban was announced:\nAs a science-based company, Bayer CropScience is disappointed that clear scientific evidence has taken a backseat in the decisionmaking process. This disproportionate decision is a missed opportunity to reach a solution that takes into consideration all of the existing product-stewardship measures and broad stakeholder concerns. The further reduction of effective crop-protection products will put at risk farmers\u2019 ability to tackle important pests that can severely restrict their ability to grow high-quality food.\nAs Brad Plumer pointed out over at the Washington Post, it\u2019s not that the E.U. necessarily has more evidence about the role that the chemicals might be playing in CCD. This is a classic case of policymaking by the precautionary principle. The pesticides are considered guilty until proven innocent, and so they\u2019re preventively banned, even before the scientific case is rock solid. That\u2019s not unusual for European environmental regulation, especially in regard to chemicals. In the U.S. it\u2019s the reverse \u2014 before the federal government is likely to take the step of banning a class of pesticides, and pissing off the multibillion-dollar chemical industry, you\u2019re likely to see a lot more science done.\nSo what we may get in Europe and the U.S. is a de facto field test of the real impact of neonicotinoids on CCD. In two years, if American bees are still dying and their European cousins are thriving, we might just have our answers. And if not, well, I hope you don\u2019t like cashews, beets, broccoli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, chestnuts, watermelons, cucumber, fennel, strawberries, macadamia, mangoes, apricots, almonds or any of the other dozens of food crops pollinated by our hardworking, six-legged, unpaid farmworkers.\nMORE: The Riddle of the Bee Deaths: Solved at Last?",

        "raw_content": "By Shelby Summers \u2013 \u2013 Thursday, June 14, 2018\nAt about 6 in the morning on Aug. 3, 2009, I had a package delivered to me in the shape of two Army Casualty Assistance Officers. As soon as I saw them, I knew.\nThe day prior, my dad, Sgt. First Class Severin West Summers III, was hit by an IED in Qole Gerdsar, Afghanistan, and lost his life. I was 13 years old at the time and couldn\u2019t truly grasp the reality of the situation. My emotions were overwhelming. In a sense, I was completely paralyzed, having never imagined being without my father.\nMy dad was full of life and a man who couldn\u2019t be broken. I was in awe of him. As a child, I watched him survive deadly spider bites, a chainsaw cut on his knee and an accidental gunshot wound to his posterior. My father \u2014 this wild, reckless, beautiful, loving, self-actualizing grunt \u2014 was more than anything, free.\nWhile he survived all the reckless chaos he subjected himself to, it was just one unseen punch that slipped through, and put him to rest. A man with the most ravenous appetite for life, a man like my father, is still human \u2014 and what a vulnerable thing that is to be. Neither myself nor family or friends saw it coming.\nWe knew he was volunteering for his second tour in Afghanistan for Operation Enduring Freedom and, sure, we were worried \u2014 but only a little. It didn\u2019t keep me up at night because it was Sev! \u2014 my dad \u2014 who had more lives than a cat.\nBut at the innocent age of 13, I discovered a secret I could not return. People die. I\u2019d never truly processed what death was, until it struck me. I was young, and I was lost \u2014 how could I contend with news this heavy, this thick, this incontestable and permanent?\nIt took about seven years for reality to catch up to me. It wasn\u2019t until I got to college and was left hostage to \u201cthe real world,\u201d that the feeling of dismay and deep grief truly incapacitated me. I was dealing with feelings, thoughts, deeply embedded emotions entrenched in the far reaches of my mind, and they paralyzed me.\nI received help from Freedom Alliance \u2014 an organization which gives children of fallen soldiers\u2019 college scholarships. But the organization does more \u2014 it builds a community. Through Freedom Alliance, I met a lot of young adults in my same situation. These were people who I didn\u2019t realize existed for so many years, and the connection that each of us developed with one another is something only we understand. We hold a special bond with one another, we can talk about our grief and rejoice about our lost parent, and it\u2019s not awkward or taboo \u2014 it\u2019s just natural, accepted and special.\nNow, almost 10 years later, I can concede my emotions about my fatherless Father\u2019s Days. The main thing I feel on Father\u2019s Day is exceptional love for the people most important to me. I also feel remembrance of the resolute, inimitable and supremely fierce man that my father was. I am so proud that he, out of every being in this infinite universe, was my father. I feel extremely glad that, when I think about how he always made everyone laugh and how much he loved that feeling, I was always his most important audience. I truly do feel a sort of gratification now despite still feeling twinges of painful grief every now and then: A tithe for what once was.\nI sometimes feel a desire for retribution, not only for the tangible adversary that killed my father, but also the intangible cruelty and unfairness of life. Why should a 13-year-old have to bury their parent? In what life is that a good or sensible thing? That question will plague my thoughts for as long as I live.\nHowever, this misfortune has allowed for a realization of how benevolently we must act toward our loved ones and even toward everyday strangers. It has given me greater appreciation for the life I have been given. I urge anyone reading this to call your loved ones and let them know how important they are to you. If they\u2019re around, embrace them, love them \u2014 remember the feeling for as long as you can. This Father\u2019s Day appreciate your father and his presence in your life. Make them feel so loved and don\u2019t confine that love and appreciation to just one day a year, because you truly never know what tomorrow holds.",

        "raw_content": "Late June 2017 - Islay, Gigha and Tayvallich\nBack in Port Ellen on Islay for the second time this season saw us struggling to find new entertainments as gales or strong winds from the east, north and west blew through for over a week. During the westerly gales we opted to catch the bus to the north east corner of the island and go for a roundabout walk across the moorland and woodland to the Bunnahabhain Distillery (see banner and more pictures). Unlike the other distilleries, Bunnahabhain is not on the bus route, but at the end of a 3 mile single track road which meant we had not bothered before now. As it was a new distillery for us we decided to join the 11.30 tour. The group included two Scots, a Swede and a small touring party of Chinese. Only one of the Chinese spoke any English, but this did not appear to detract from their enjoyment - but that may have been because they had been enthusiastically sampling drams before the tour started. We left off the spirit until after the tour which was at least after mid day! As we started back along the road to the bus stop, they stopped to offer us a lift, and even with only one english speaker we got famously. As we drove along the Sound of Islay looking over to Jura, they were amazed at the wide open spaces and sparcity of houses. They could not believe when we said Jura had a population of ~130, thinking we meant 130 thousand, but they were from the cities so the mistake is understandable.\nHaving ticked off Bunnahabhain, we had to do the tour of Lagavulin, the only other distillery on Islay we had not so far done. The reason being it is part of Diageo and its neighbours Laphroaig and Ardbeg being much more interesting. However the guide was very entertaining and we were given very fancy glasses as part of the tour. This means we have collected 8 new whisky glasses this season!\nThe rest of our frustrating week we did get out for a couple of walks. The first was along a couple of lochans where we hoped to see red throated divers, these were not in evidence, but a small flock or redpoll (below left) made up for that. Another day we went for a shore walk and were rewarded with great views a family of stonechat (below right).\nFinally the strong winds abated, and the rough seas subsided and we were able to cross the Sound of Jura to Gigha. This was the only inhabited island on the west coast that we had not yet visited. Gigha means \"God's Island\" but the weather was overcast and gloomy while we were there so it was not looking at its best. We climbed to the summit of the island (below) which is only 100m above sea level so not strenuous exercise. At the top, an engraved pedestal pointed out the sights we could not see, on the left is Jura and the right Kintyre.\nThe following morning we moved on. The wind was from the north west giving us a lively trip well healed over (see more pictures) as we sailed northwards to Loch Sween and Tayvallich (below).\nTayvallich (above) is a very sheltered bay at the north end of Loch Sween in the heart of Knapdale in Argyll. The loch is 7 miles long and we had not visited since 2007 (see Early Aug 2007 ) when we anchored in the Fairy Isles. It is a pretty area with a series of steep north-east to south-west ridges that form fingers running out to sea. The land is covered in oak woods and between the ridges are fresh water or sea lochs. As an indication of the beauty of the region, over the five days we were there the cruise ship \"Lord of the Isles' and the Clyde Puffer 'Vic32' both anchored in the area. It was fun to watch the Puffer anchoring as the exhaust from the steam powered anchor windlass blew out the side (right). \"Lord of the Isles' arrived in the late evening after we had gone to bed. The sound of their anchor chain rattling overboard was very loud through the water and had us leaping out of bed in alarm as it sounded as if it was just next door.\nIt is a popular anchorage, and on one sunny evening a neighbour decided to start practicing their flute. We were not the only ones to enjoy the music as a dog from another yacht joined in making it a flute and howl duet. When the flute stopped, so did the dog, when the melody started again the dog howls joined in a couple of bars later. It had us in stitches, but clearly the flautist was not impressed as they gave up after about 15 minutes.\nJust south of Tayvallich is the Taynish National Nature Reserve. Here, as well as the pristine oak woodlands are grassland, scrub and heath each home to a host of plants and animals. This frog (left) ambled across the path in front of us, very well camouflaged against the gravel. As we ate our picnic lunch a pair of spotted fly catchers entertained us as they flitted around after flies to feed their fledgling who sat on the fence looking helpless. Unfortunately it was a very good day for files and these quickly found us and drove us to keep walking.\nThe sail from Tayvallich to Ardfern was a complete contrast to that from Gigha. The wind was directly behind us and we had the whisker pole rigged to hold out the yankee (for the first time in a couple of years) as we goose-winged northwards. We were amazed to watch a yacht beating the other way, into the wind and against the tide - some people are gluttons for punishment. Hopefully after a couple of days to catch up with domestic duties we'll be off north towards Mull and the small isles.",

Olivier has strengthened the speech by extending it with lines from a similar speech in the preceding play in the first tetralogy, Henry VI, Part 3, Act 3, Scene 2, 124-95. This clip largely reflects the brilliant rhetorical flair of Olivier's original stage performances as Richard which sealed his reputation as a great Shakespearean actor. However, there are some memorable filmic additions resulting from deft camera close-ups: the clever eye-movements, but above the treatment of the camera as a co-conspirator - and hence the cinema audiences too.",

Now everyone has a list of unfinished stuff, but starters probably have more than most others.\nI myself have a folder with about 5 business plans\u2026 Did I tell you about my dessert delivery business? Have you heard of Belfast Badges? Did you know I have all the costings and groundwork done for a Steampunk Cafe and Co-Working space in Holywood? I have about 7 coding projects in various stages of completion. Some of them have a first draft already in the app store. Two half-finished canvases sit in my living room, waiting for me to get on with them. I have a short screenplay fully planned and written, two novels underway, and numerous vignettes of short stories. We won\u2019t talk about the multiple housework and DIY jobs I\u2019ve started. And there is literally years worth of stuff I\u2019ve eventually forgotten about that I was supposed to have done at the time.\nI talked a lot in the last post about how I learned to hate myself for never finishing things. And I know other people who feel constantly like life is on top of them, their To-Do list is never finished, and they never feel free.\nWell let me tell you now that there\u2019s truth in the old phrase \u201cA [wo]man\u2019s work is never done\u201d. Trust me when I say There Will Be No End To Housework. Ever. There will always be one more job. There will be no end to your To-Do list. Ever. Because as humans we are great at coming up with more ideas of things that could be cleaned and improved and achieved. Your natural resourcefullness and curiosity is constantly adding items to your To-Do list. The natural complexity of finance systems, interpersonal relationships and entropy conspire to add some more of their own. It\u2019s time to admit that there will be no end to the list, and that a logical next step is to STOP BEATING YOURSELF UP FOR NOT COMPLETING IT.\nInstead, let us focus on the idea that we will always have a wide and varied range of things to do at any given time. That any one of those things you started could be picked up, new enthusiasm kindled, and a little bit of progress made. Hey, how about you show that thing to someone and have a chat about how it might work? Why don\u2019t you use that other thing as a way to get some alone-time while you work on something? What if that one and this other one could combine and you could get the kids involved? Maybe that stuff that fell through before would be great now that you know Bob, who would love to help with that bit you aren\u2019t so good at?\nCheer up and get on with the glorious, beautiful list, and stop worrying about the bits you haven\u2019t finished!\nSay it with me now: \u201cI love all my unfinished projects. They represent a world of possibilities.\u201d\nSee also: The Art of Quitting #1: You are not lazy",

        "raw_content": "Tensions flare as Caledonia standoff continues\nA fragile calm has settled in but a tense standoff continues in Caledonia, Ont., hours after aboriginal protesters and non-native residents traded punches and insults.\nOntario Provincial Police officers have separated the two sides, lining up in a pair of columns to keep them apart on Highway 6, the main road running through the southern Ontario town.\nLocal officials were to hold an emergency meeting to discuss the situation.\nEarlier in the afternoon, a number of native and non-native demonstrators were injured in scuffles as two large backhoes dug up a section of road in front of the native blockade.\nA native spokesperson had approached the non-native demonstrators and told them: \"If you leave, we won't dig up the land.\"\nShortly after that, the native demonstrators narrowed the gap between the two sides from hundreds of feet to a couple of metres. They later returned to their blockade, saying they had to discuss the situation.\nTempers reached the boiling point just a few hours after what had seemed to be a breakthrough in a five-week standoff over the construction of a subdivision on land the aboriginal protesters claim is their land.\nBarricades that the Six Nations protesters had erected on April 20 on Highway 6 came down as planned early Monday.\nHowever, traffic was still being impeded because several dozen non-aboriginal protesters had set up a human barricade of their own.\nThat led to a scuffle between native and non-native demonstrators. Six Nations members then rushed to set up a new barrier.\nSides trade punches, accusations\n\"That's colonialism at its finest,\" Janie Jamieson, a spokeswoman for the Six Nations protesters, told CBC News in a midday interview as more aboriginal people returned to the site and Ontario Provincial Police officers tried to keep the peace.\n\"The OPP is witnessing it but nobody's doing anything about it,\" Jamieson said.\nAt one point, shouting, pushing and shoving broke out as a vehicle tried to get through the new barricade. Some people from the opposing sides traded punches, and each side accused the other of using racial slurs.\n\"Most people in Caledonia have a great degree of sympathy for land claims and want it settled,\" said resident Pat Woolley, interviewed at the site of the non-aboriginal protest.\nHowever, he said, \"people behind the barricade feel they weren't consulted\" before the blockade went up.\nShortly before the new Six Nations barrier went up on Monday, Woolley pointed out that people are still off work because the aboriginal protesters were continuing to block a nearby rail line. As well, he said, the Six Nations group does not intend to leave the subdivision at the heart of the dispute.\nFor weeks, vehicles have been let through only irregularly.\nThe Six Nations community claims the land on which the subdivision was being built was never signed away by their ancestors, but was illegally taken from them 200 years ago.\n\"Our own populations are growing, and if we allow the loss of land, we will be remiss in our duties in our children and our ancestors,\" Six Nations Confederacy Chief Allen McNaughton said Monday.\n\"We thought everything was going to happen today, but we've got a delay and we're going to work it out,\" David Ramsay, Ontario's minister responsible for aboriginal affairs, said early Monday during an interview with CBC News.\nNegotiator on scene\nFormer Ontario premier David Peterson, who was appointed at the end of April to help resolve the standoff, arrived at the scene around 4:30 p.m. EDT.\nHe appealed for calm, saying he hoped cooler heads would prevail and that demonstrators from both sides would go home.\nPeterson called the escalation of tension \"heartbreaking,\" and said he doesn't know what set it off.\n\"It's tough to know...frustrating for everybody,\" he said.\nEarlier in the day, Peterson told CBC Newsworld it was crucial that the Caledonia dispute be ended responsibly because it is being watched by native groups across North America.\nSaskatchewan blockade disrupts traffic\nIn a development that seems to underline Peterson's concerns, members of First Nations in the North Battleford area of Saskatchewan set up a blockade of their own at a major highway near the community Monday afternoon.\nAlthough some cars were being let through, it was causing problems for holiday travellers on the Yellowhead Highway near North Battleford. The Saskatchewan protesters, who are from First Nations in the North Battleford district, set up near the bridges that cross the North Saskatchewan River.\nMarcia Neault of the Poundmaker Reserve says they want to draw attention to First Nations land issues everywhere.\n\"We're doing that in solidarity with Caledonia, and all lands that have been taken over by people that are non-Indian,\" she said.",

Many of these children are immigrants who don't speak English, and very probably have no idea what these pesticides can do to their health. We must put a stop to this by making our concerns known to the EPA chief, Scott Pruitt.\nIt's estimated that there are as many as 500,000 child farmworkers in the U.S. during prime growing seasons. Studies have shown that as many as 300,000 suffer from pesticide exposure, both short and long-term health problems.\nWe must demand that the EPA drop their plan that will poison more teens if enacted.\nPlease take a moment to tell Scott Pruitt to protect teenage farmworkers from pesticides that poison them.\nHere is the information you need to contact Scott Pruitt:\nEPA Director Scott Pruitt\nPruitt.Scott@EPA.gov\nGENDER INEQUALITY'S DEADLY TOLL\nIn its inaugural report on women's health from the cradle to the grave, the World Health Organization found that HIV is the #1 killer of women ages 15 to 49 worldwide and that unequal access to sex education and health care leads to millions of preventable deaths each year.

        "raw_content": "Leave it to the magicians at Disney to take a favorite childhood activity and turn it into a Hollywood worthy experience. That\u2019s just what they have done with the first ever live, 3-D coloring book.\nChildren around the world have been hooked on coloring for generations. This favorite pastime is one that transcends cultures and generations. It\u2019s a popular hobby that grown strong and steady since 1885 when Crayola began putting colored pieces of wax into the hands of children eager to express their creative impulses.\nThis is the evolution of that, and while Crayola\u2019s own Color Alive! is scheduled to hit shelves in January, all eyes are on Disney and the magic the Magic Kingdom is well known for.\nUnlike other similar products that have been tried or are in development, Disney and Crayola are not just making the image 3-D. They are bringing them to life by adding animation into the equation. This means that children will be able to see their characters move on the mobile devices and computer screens. This is a much anticipated evolution that will ignite the imaginations of budding princesses, hot-to-trot firemen, and of course, dinosaur and dragon enthusiasts everywhere.\nWhile Disney hasn\u2019t announced a release date for the program, they are going to be eager to get it to market before Crayola can establish a solid foothold in the digital coloring realm. Thus, it is likely that this product will be available by summer at the latest. One thing is for sure, and that is when the product does become available, it is going to be a homerun with children and parents alike. In fact, it\u2019s likely to spark a revolution in both homegrown graphic design and character animation.\nAnd, don\u2019t worry if you still have trouble coloring outside the lines. The Disney program automatically trims your image so that those li\u2019l imperfections don\u2019t give your characters too much character.\nRelated ItemsAnimationColoringCrayolaDisneyHobbyHollywoodImagination",

        "raw_content": "Dancing With the Stars All-Stars Predictions: Week 8 Elimination Results\n>> Update: Dancing With the Stars 2012 All Stars Recap: Week 8 Elimination Results\nOn the Dancing With the Stars 2012 elimination results show Tuesday night, two DWTS All Stars cast celebrities will be going home. With a Dancing With the Stars All Stars double elimination tonight, none of the competitors are truly safe. Our Dancing With the Stars predictions for this week\u2019s elimination are leaning toward a few of the lowest scoring couples finally getting the boot. However, DWTS voters are notoriously unpredictable, so you never know exactly what is going to happen. Who was eliminated on Dancing With the Stars All Stars 2012 week 8? Well, we\u2019ll tell you our DWTS All Stars predictions for the eliminations this week if you tell us yours!\nThis is the week that I expect the continuing low scores of some of the Dancing With the Stars All Stars cast celebrities to finally catch up with them. There are several couples who have been consistently riding in the bottom of the pack, but manage to make it through each week on the backs of their strong fan support in the votes. In my Dancing With the Stars season 15 predictions for this week\u2019s elimination results, I truly think at least one of these \u2018lowriders\u2019 will be shoved out the door at last.\nShould Be Eliminated:\nThis could be a very bad week for the Chmerkovskiy brothers as neither of their celebrity dance partners seem to be doing well in the competition. While Kirstie Alley has shown that she has an extremely strong fan base, I am really feeling that this could be her week to go home in the Dancing With the Stars All Stars elimination results. I love Kirstie, don\u2019t get me wrong. She\u2019s great for entertainment value across the board, but it is obvious she is not even close to being in the same league as most of the other celebrity contestants.\nThe other contestant I think could possibly succumb to her patchy scores this week is Kelly Monaco. While Kelly Monaco sometimes gives great performances, she then turns right around and gives a lousy one. Of the rest of the pack, I think she\u2019s the most in danger of going home this week. Consistency is important on Dancing With the Stars.\nMight Be Eliminated:\nWhile Emmitt Smith and Cheryl Burke have given some truly awesome performances this season, they have also given some seriously lackluster ones. There are moments when it just seems that the passion for the competition is lacking in Emmitt Smith. A little odd considering his background. They seem to be slipping in fan support and it could be that voters are just not seeing enough fire out of Emmitt during his performances.\nApolo Anton Ohno has gifted viewers with some incredibly fun and entertaining performances this season. However, he hasn\u2019t been consistently in the top of the pack and sometimes he has sunk quite low in the scores. Plus, he just seems to lack some of the charisma he had in his previous season.\nNone of the contestants are truly safe at this point in the competition, so I am putting everyone else in the danger zone this week. Melissa Rycroft and Tony Dovolani, for example, could easily find themselves in the bottom this week despite having near perfect scores the past two weeks. I don\u2019t expect them to be eliminated, but Melissa doesn\u2019t have as big a fan base as some of the other, lower scoring, celebrities.

        "raw_content": "People who do not know you and me\nCrito's arguments often are contrasted with those of Socrates as being of a very different kind. Crito tends to offer very personal arguments specific to the details of Socrates' private life. Socrates , however, argues more from principles of abstract justice.\nHere, Crito puts forth the classic \"but what will people think\" argument. Socrates gently chastises him for saying we should only be concerned about what the educated and enlightened think, not about the opinions of the ignorant masses.\nAs an aside, the abstract universal approach of Socrates, which has been typical of Western philosophy in general, has recently come under attack. Feminist philosophers maintain that it is a male characteristic to approach dilemmas in this way. A female approach would stress what is concrete, immediate, personal, and relational. Whether this approach, or some combination of the two, is preferable, is a matter of great contemporary debate. In any event, it lends a new light to the interpretations of the arguments found here - one which calls for a reassessment of the relative validity of Crito's and Socrates' respective arguments in light of gender.",

I really did want an Apple iphone. Nevertheless I'm extremely pleased with my Blackberry Storm. I have the AppWorld software on my phone which allows me know of numerous programs (some for totally free, some not for free) that I can obtain on to my phone. When you're loosened up, the next stage is to achieve rapport with each other. Discovering commonalities, typical passions and a stage exactly where the two of you can connect is essential. When these cells get bent, they trigger a ringing sound in a specific frequency. This is what leads to tinnitus. The ringing in your ears that result from this is only short-term. After a couple of minutes or a few hrs, it would usually go absent on its own. If your tinnitus persists after much more than two times, the tinnitus that you have might be more permanent. Sam's Fun City is the only waterpark situated in Pensacola. They have 4 primary slides, and a number of other smaller sized ones for children to perform on. Also included is the area is an amusement park with several rides, an arcade, restaurant, build-a-bear store, and a bounce room that kids can play in. If you're looking to destroy some time in the spring or summer time, the waterpark is a great for kids. During the colder months, it does close down, but the relaxation of the rides and games remain open up year spherical. You can study my complete review of Sam's Enjoyable Metropolis here. The city of Phoenix has so a lot to provide. Cultural events, sporting events, Concerts, movies, museums, fine dining, comedy clubs - it's all correct there. So when you're prepared to go, why not go in style? Even if you just want to head up into the foothills so you and your honey can gaze down on the outstanding city lights, your night is certain to be a evening to keep in mind when arrive at your location in style. There were most likely no much more than thirty people in attendance for the 11 AM screening, scattered randomly all through the space. I had already study a couple of critiques and weblogs such as a good 1 from Urban Observation. My angle was set, and I was not to be swayed. As the movie opened with the dancers and auditions, their pleasure to get this remarkable gig was evident. Allow's encounter it: if any dancer experienced the chance to carry out onstage with 1 of the greatest entertainers, he or she would be jumping for joy too. When they didn't arrive home from this private gig family members went to the evening club to find their vehicles still parked and the band associates no exactly where in sight. All of the band members are from the region of Mina. Neighbors in the area of the nightclub report listening to gunshots and automobiles dashing off at a high rate of speed about 4 a.m. on Friday.",

        "raw_content": "Home Scottish Premiership Aberdeen 2018-19 Betfred Cup Final Preview \u2013 Celtic vs Aberdeen\nHampden Park will play host to the Betfred Cup final on Sunday to determine who grabs the first piece of Scottish silverware this season.\nLeague leaders Celtic play host to Aberdeen in the final The Dons are looking to win the first piece of silverware that the Hoops haven\u2019t lifted since Hibs won the Scottish Cup in May 2016.\nCeltic have won the second-most Scottish League Cups (17), second to Rangers (27). Having won all three domestic trophies the past two seasons, they beat Motherwell 2-0 last season in the League Cup for the first of their three trophies.\nAberdeen have won it on six separate occasions, the last of which came in 2014 when they beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle 4-2 on penalties following a 0-0 draw in Derek McInnes\u2019 first season in charge.\nFinals between the pair\nThis duo have met in the final of this competition three times before. The first meeting contributed to one of Aberdeen\u2019s six triumphs in 1976-77. They beat Celtic 2-1 after extra time.\nThe other two meetings have seen the Hoops get the better of the Dons without Aberdeen scoring. A 2-0 triumph in 1999-2000 was followed up with the first of their invincible season trophies by defeating Aberdeen 3-0 in the 2016-17 season, Brendan Rodgers\u2019 first in charge.\nOther stats/omens\nShould Celtic win against Aberdeen, they\u2019ll win their third consecutive Scottish League Cup, a feat which has only been achieved twice before. In fact, Celtic won the competition five years in a row from 1965-66 to 1969-70, the other occasion being when Rangers won three on the trot between 1986-87 to 1988-89.\nAberdeen have won just two trophies since 1990, both of which were League Cups in 1996 and 2014. This would be their seventh League Cup and 20th major honour. The Dons are also yet to concede a goal in the 300 minutes worth of football they\u2019ve played in the competition this season. In the 72 years of the League Cup, just seven teams have won it without conceding a goal.\nWith both these teams finishing as last season\u2019s top two, they automatically entered into the Betfred Cup second round.\nCeltic played a Glaswegian derby and despite falling behind to Championship side Partick Thistle, they got the better of their second tier opponents 3-1. Aberdeen were able to batter newly-promoted Premiership side St Mirren 4-0 at Pittodrie.\nThe quarter finals provided a lot less goals. Celtic scraped past St Johnstone in Perth, thanks to a Leigh Griffiths winner, to book a semi-final place winning 1-0. Aberdeen travelled to the capital to get the better of Hibs 6-5 on penalties after a stalemate having played two hours of football with not a single goal between them.\nIn the semi-finals, Celtic would go to the capital as part of a top two clash but eased past Hearts 3-0 at Murrayfield. Aberdeen played Rangers at Hampden on the same day and, thanks to a Lewis Ferguson winner, won 1-0.\nBoth sides will look to their strikers to be the most likely to nick them glory. However, the sides\u2019 two centre forwards are at totally different ends of the spectrum.\nCeltic\u2019s record signing Odsonne Edouard has 12 goals so far this season (Three in Champions League qualifying, two in the Europa League and seven in the Ladbrokes Premiership).\nStevie May has netted once this season, in the 4-0 win over St Mirren in the second round. In fact, he\u2019s only scored six for Aberdeen since arriving at the Dons in January 2017 meaning that Edouard has netted double this season what May has in his Aberdeen career.\nThe 19 year old Edouard appears to have it all \u2013 strength, pace, composure, an eye for goal. Yet Stevie May can contribute a work rate and his movement is good. Whilst he\u2019s yet to hit the heights of his St Johnstone days, he has proved he can come up with the goods on occasion. An interesting battle to watch.\nCeltic\u2019s Midfield Strength\nCeltic are the favourites and have a plethora of midfielders able to create chances for Edouard. One of which being Callum McGregor, who has turned into a vital player for Celtic under Brendan Rodgers.\nHe\u2019s even filled in at left back before and can play just about anywhere, having all the tools necessary to hurt Aberdeen, wherever he plays. A real creative spark in the heart of midfield whether it be as a no.10 or in front of the back four, as has been the case lately.\nAberdeen are the underdogs and will need to be tight defensively in order to keep Celtic at bay for as long as they can in the hope that they can nick a goal either on the counter attack or from a set piece/dead ball situation.\nIf there\u2019s one thing certain on Sunday it\u2019s that Joe Lewis will be required to keep Aberdeen in the tie as long as he can, a big performance will be needed from one of the best goalkeepers in the division.\nLastly, both sides will look to their pace and creativity on the flanks. Celtic able to do so through the man of the moment, James Forrest.\nIn perhaps the greatest form of his career, he has matured beyond his years under Rodgers and even played the role of hat-trick hero for Scotland against Israel in the most recent international break. Goals and assists proving to be second nature at the minute.\nGary Mackay-Steven will also have a point to prove\nIn this final, he will find himself up against his former club. Deemed not good enough to play in green and white, he\u2019s more often than not at the heart of whatever the Dons create going forward. Pace and trickery always in abundance, he\u2019s Aberdeen\u2019s architect and if the Dons are to get a result, he will most likely be why.\nIt\u2019s shaping up to be a cracker between two good teams in the Scottish game. But will Celtic do as expected and lift their 7th trophy under Brendan Rodgers or can Derek McInnes\u2019 Aberdeen cause an upset and prevent a seemingly inevitable treble-treble?",

        "title": "Sony is \"confident\" it will develop cross-play solution - TechSpot",
        "raw_content": "Sony is \"confident\" it will develop cross-play solution\nSo...you're saying there's a chance?\nBottom line: Sony appears to be somewhat open to enabling cross-play with other console makers but only time will tell if they will actually deliver on that promise.\nThe biggest gaming news in recent days has been Sony's reluctance to enable cross-play multiplayer and the inability to use Epic Games accounts on any other console if it was first connected to a PS4. Sony released a weak statement touting cross-play between PC and mobile but also highlighting its 80 million active users on PlayStation Network. The implication is that because of the sheer number of PS4 users, cross-play with other rival consoles is unnecessary. However, at a the recent Gamelab conference in Spain, Sony Interactive Entertainment President and CEO Shawn Layden responded to the controversy saying:\n\"We're hearing it,\" Layden said. \"We're looking at a lot of the possibilities. You can imagine that the circumstances around that affect a lot more than just one game. I'm confident we'll get to a solution which will be understood and accepted by our gaming community, while at the same time supporting our business.\"\nThe statement \"supporting our business\" is an important one. Sony seems to be afraid of losing PS4 sales to people who play the same games on other platform. Perhaps Sony believes that playing with people on other consoles devalues the reason to buy a PS4 (even if the primary reason people buy the PS4 is because of the excellent single player exclusives). Former head of Sony Online Entertainment, John Smedley flatly said in a since deleted tweet, \"They didn't like someone buying something on an Xbox and it being used on a PlayStation.\" This is a moot point considering the PS4 is by far the winner of this console generation.\nRegardless, Sony has definitely been feeling the pressure from frustrated gamers who can't play Fortnite on other consoles. Microsoft and Nintendo have also cheekily poked fun at Sony's obstinate stance by releasing a trailer that promoted Minecraft cross-play between the Xbox One and Switch.\nSony has built up a lot of goodwill in the gaming community since the PS4's 2013 launch. However, it seems that goodwill is quickly dissolving and could potentially affect future console sales, great exclusives or not.",

        "raw_content": "Definition of Identity Leadership\nIdentity Leadership is self-leadership, based on the philosophy that you cannot lead others until you first lead yourself.\nThe survey indicates that \u201ccompanies face new leadership challenges, including developing Millennials and multiple generations of leaders, meeting the demand for leaders with global fluency and flexibility, building the ability to innovate and inspire others to perform, and acquiring new levels of understanding of rapidly changing technologies and new disciplines and fields.\u201d\nWithout a strong identity, we are more likely to be carried by the influence of our environment into a future requiring very little reflection or development. At S. Graham & Associates, we know that addressing the leadership gap at every organizational level is critical to the success of the entire organization. We have to understand the nature of true leadership to close the leadership gap. True leaders are not looking to posture; they are looking to make a difference and to fulfill their mission in life andbusiness.\nIn the 30-plus years Stedman Graham has been writing books, teaching in colleges, working in communities, leading non-profits and speaking at workshops throughout the world, he has come to know one thing: leadership is everything. The needs of the 21st century cannotbe met by followers.\nIdentity Leadership Is Self-Leadership\nThe Identity Leadership Nine-Step Success Process is a proven methodology for personal and professional success. The message is based on the philosophy that you have the power to determine your success or failure, and that to lead others you must first lead yourself.\nGraham offers the Identity Leadership Nine-Step Success Process for emerging management leaders and employees all around the globe. Although the purpose of the program is to facilitate a company\u2019s ability to grow market share, growth only happens when we maximize individual performance.\nLeadership or lack thereof determines the success or failure of U.S. organizations. Identity serves as a leader\u2019s greatest asset. Enduringly successful people know who they are and are certain about what matters to them. They have established powerful identities and create wherever they go.\nIdentity Leaders build a strong foundation from the core of who they are. They understand what drives them and become clear on what choices they should make despite the obstacles or difficulties they may face along the way. They withstand the tests and challenges of time. The Identity Leadership Nine-Step Success Process provides the tools and basis for discovery and development in our lives. This is how we become our best selves.",

In the worst case, if you haven\u2019t been taking good care of your teeth you might have several cavities to worry about. Your dentist can help you create a plan to get all the cavities filled over a period of time that makes it affordable to you. Most likely they can offer a credit plan if you don\u2019t have enough to cover the most pressing issues with your teeth.\nFillings from Long Beach Dental \u2013 Amalgam and Composite\nYour Long Beach dental office can give you different options in terms of what type of fillings you want for your cavities. The most common kind is amalgam which is a mixture of mercury and a few other kinds of metal. This kind of filling is durable and the least expensive to get done but some people have concerns about the possible dangers of the level of mercury used. Another kind of filling is the more natural looking composite type made out of resin. Some people choose this kind of filling for a tooth colored and undetectable solution.\nSeal Beach Dentist Can Help You Choose Fillings\nChoosing the right kind of fillings for your cavities can be a matter of many different pros and cons that your Seal Beach dentist can describe to you. Some composite fillings are more expensive but more natural looking although they can wear out faster and may not be used in all situations. As you may already know from experience, amalgam fillings usually require some removal of the healthy part of the tooth to be placed. Some people are afraid of drilling and choose not to go through the process of amalgam fillings.",

Tags: fannie mae, foreclosure fraud, goldman sachs, Josh Rosner, jpmorgan chase, lehman brothers, marc lackritz, medeley global, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, securities fraud, thomson financial, wall street\nWhen Wall Street\u2019s biggest firms settled with regulators in April 2003 over charges of fraudulent stock research, the industry promised a new era of independence. Marc Lackritz, president of the Securities Industry Association, promised Wall Street would ensure that \u201cthe quality and integrity of financial analysis is beyond reproach.\u201d\nThe recent highly critical report by federal regulators on Fannie Mae\u2019s accounting practices, though, may rekindle questions about Wall Street\u2019s ability to issue unbiased research. Fannie is one of Wall Street\u2019s best clients, issuing close to $2 trillion in debt to provide cheap loans for home buyers, and those figures don\u2019t include other huge fees Wall Street earns in helping Fannie. Fannie\u2019s top five underwriters have earned close to $700 million in fees since 1999, according to Thomson Financial. Those same firms have provided continuing upbeat assessments despite growing signs Fannie was facing financial difficulties. Merrill Lynch, Fannie\u2019s largest underwriter, maintained its \u201cbuy\u201d rating last week. A Merrill spokesman said the firm\u2019s research is objective, adding: \u201cOur buy rating is in line with the consensus of research on this company.\u201d Other leading underwriters\u2013Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan\u2013declined to comment.\nNYTIMES | A Coming Nightmare of Homeownership?\nPosted on 08 February 2011. Tags: fannie mae, fdic, federal reserve board, FHA, foreclosure fraud, Freddie Mac, goldman sachs, Josh Rosner, jpmorgan chase, lehman brothers, marc lackritz, medeley global, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, securities fraud, thomson financial, wall street\nIT is literally a trillion-dollar question: What will a humbled, reined-in Fannie Mae, the nation\u2019s biggest mortgage provider, mean to the economy, the financial markets, interest rates and housing in America?\nSince regulators disclosed evidence of widespread accounting improprieties at the company, which carries almost $1 trillion in mortgages on its books, the response from the financial markets has been surprisingly muted. To be sure, Fannie Mae\u2019s stock has lost 14 percent of its value, but its debt securities have held fairly steady and the pools of mortgages it sells to investors have continued to attract buyers.\nEven if Fannie Mae\u2019s troubles are eventually worked out, there may be other, potentially nasty reverberations from the company\u2019s weakened position. These include a possible hit to the dollar if foreign investors, who have bought so much of the company\u2019s debt, become alarmed by the accounting problems and sell.\nJames A. Bianco of Bianco Research in Chicago, said he thinks foreigners might well cut back on their Fannie Mae debt holdings, as they seem to have done when Freddie Mac, another government-sponsored enterprise in the mortgage business, had its own accounting problems last year. \u201dIf Freddie spooked foreigners, the Fannie scandal will exacerbate the trend,\u201d he said.\nIn addition, Fannie Mae\u2019s woes could work against the Federal Reserve Board as it moves to keep inflation in check by raising interest rates. If the company, under heightened scrutiny, decides that it must manage its interest rate risk more aggressively, it would have to buy huge amounts of Treasury securities. Doing so would push rates down further, creating a vicious cycle in which more homeowners refinance their mortgages, leaving Fannie Mae with a larger mismatch between the longer-term debt they have issued to buy the mortgages and the shorter-lived mortgages themselves.",

From its humble beginnings, USC welcomed students from around the world and, in this century, has enrolled more international students than any other college in the nation. More recently, we have established a student body that ranks among the highest in the country among private research universities in the number of underrepresented groups, Pell Grant recipients, first-generation college goers, transfer students, military veterans, and religious orientations practiced, among others. We have created a number of programs to support further diversification of our student and faculty bodies, created pipeline programs to expand diversity at all levels, and, led by the Academic Senate, made significant progress in creating an inclusive campus climate with regard to age, disability, ethnicity, gender identity, national origin, race, religious affiliation, sex, sexual orientation, and veteran status.\nWe will continue to prioritize diversity and inclusion. We will ask every school to create and execute a strategic plan for diversity and inclusion. We will invest in research programs that encourage evidence-based approaches to this work. We will create faculty leadership training programs so diverse voices have unfettered access to the mantle of university leadership here at USC and beyond. We will create programs for first-generation students \u2013 at all levels \u2013 that allow them to better navigate their campus experience and their chosen life and career paths. We will train faculty on how to foster a more inclusive classroom environment, and provide curricular opportunities for students to raise their cultural literacy. In sum, we will increase the opportunity for distinct voices to be heard on our campuses and we will instill the value of listening to those voices.",

        "raw_content": "A Book, an Apple, and a Bowl of Popcorn - guest post by Susan Waggoner\nReading and writing have always been inextricably linked in my mind. One is breathing in, the other is breathing out, and both are necessary for the organism to function. I always feel a special excitement, and an increase in respiration, when the leaves begin to turn and the crisp of autumn is in the air. My heart lifts. The winter reading season is at hand!\nI grew up near Minneapolis, where winter is long, days are short, and school is often cancelled because buses will not start below \u201330 Fahrenheit. The climate gave me good cause to read. So did my parents, who led by example. No night was too cold for a trip to the library, or to take our haul home and celebrate with popcorn and apples.\nThe arrival of a long-awaited book caused palpable excitement throughout the whole house. My mother, a teacher, would race home from school to read before my father came home. After dinner, it was his turn with the book. This was an era of big historical fiction and, through sheer longing to be part of the family book circle, the first adult books I read were Michener\u2019s Hawaii, MacKinlay Kantor\u2019s Spirit Lake and James Clavell\u2019s Shogun. I read all of these in the winter months as I recall, and all of them fuelled my desire to write. My first (and very terrible) book, written at age 15, was set on the Minnesota frontier.\nI cannot imagine writing without reading, or reading without writing. My \u201cto read\u201d list, kept on a database, currently stands at 7,670. There are only a few hundred on there I don\u2019t truly want to read, or believe I will have time to read someday. Winter is that time. So, get your duvets ready. Snuggle up with a hot drink, and maybe an apple, and take yourself off to somewhere magical.\nSusan Waggoner was born in Iowa, grew up in the Minneapolis suburbs, and received degrees from the University of Iowa. Except for one year in which she worked as an editorial assistant, she has always been a self-employed writer. She has written a number of non-fiction adult books, one novel and one young adult title. Tired of the current trend for gloomy dystopia in YA fiction, she wrote Neptune\u2019s Tears, an exciting and romantic vision of the future. She divides her time between New York and London.\nI agree...nothing nicer than cozying up with a good book, while the weather rages outside. Mind you, in the UK this is happening rather sooner than we expected!\nThank you for guest posting, Susan. Alas I agree with Caroline about the weather...!\nThanks for posting, Susan. And what a beautiful book cover. I have to own up and say that I spend more time on the computer than I do on reading at the moment. Note to self: Sort it out!\nJordanuvoc said...",

        "raw_content": "by: Lee Bogan\n(Lanier Records)\nLee Bogan is simply one of the most talented people I have ever met. A world class songwriter who scored a major hit with Joe Diffie (\u201cHonky Tonk Attitude\u201d) and a performer who has played smoking lead guitar with Diffie, Billy Joe Royal, Artimus Pyle, Dr. Hook, and is currently out with Ronnie McDowell, Bogan can play any instrument he can get his hands on, and play it well.\nHis latest CD West Springs is filled with ten more great songs, nine of which were written or co-written by Bogan. \u201cThat\u2019s How I Roll\u201d was recently a major hit on internet country radio, and is still being spun all over the country. While his up tempo and often humorous songs like \u201cI Like Her But\u201d are excellent, it is perhaps his ballads that showcase Bogan\u2019s strongest talent. Songs like the beautiful \u201cCountry from the Heart\u201d and the tender \u201cMother Load,\u201d a tribute to mothers everywhere.\nEvery song on this release is a good one, including the sole cover, a Tim Gillihan/Buck Moore tune, \u201cScars,\u201d and Lee\u2019s fun loving \u201cRedder Necker\u201d and the rocking \u201cI\u2019ll Never Stop Believing.\u201d\nFar above average songs, great singing and playing (Lee plays all the instruments) and a whole lot of southern spirit. West Springs is a classic. Lee Bogan deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with Merle Haggard, Garth Brooks and even his favorite bands, Kansas and Journey. That\u2019s a fact, from one Upstate South Carolina boy to another. Keep up the good work, Lee. Nashville needs more writers who write straight from the heart.",

        "raw_content": "Credit: ACS Science & Engineering Team, Hubble Space Telescope, NASA\nExplanation: These two mighty galaxies are pulling each other apart. Known as \"The Mice\" because they have such long tails, each spiral galaxy has likely already passed through the other. They will probably collide again and again until they coalesce. The long tails are created by the relative difference between gravitational pulls on the near and far parts of each galaxy. Because the distances are so large, the cosmic interaction takes place in slow motion -- over hundreds of millions of years. NGC 4676 lies about 300 million light-years away toward the constellation of Bernice's Hair (Coma Berenices) and are likely members of the Coma Cluster of Galaxies. The above picture was taken with the Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys which is more sensitive and images a larger field than previous Hubble cameras. The camera is scheduled to be serviced during the coming flight of Space Shuttle.",

        "raw_content": "Here's my April Currently courtesy of Farley of Oh Boy Fourth Grade!\nListening: My friends in the Read 180 program record fluency passages on the computer as part of the program. I can log in from anywhere, listen to their recordings, and grade them all online. It is actually kind of cool.\nLoving: SPRING! I am so ready for some warmer weather after all the snow we've had this winter. The past two days I was actually able to leave with just a light jacket on in the mornings.\nThinking: The blog redesign is underway! One of my goals was to clean up the tags on my blog posts to make it easier to find posts on specific topics. I actually thought I could sit down and do this fairly quickly. Not happening! It's not a terrible task, just time consuming. Plus, I'm trying to figure out how to get Blogger to let me delete some tags I don't want to use anymore. I'm so in awe of people who can do all these \"computer things\" with no effort!\nWanting: It is 10:32 on a Thursday night as I write this. I really wanted my lesson plans done before tomorrow so that I won't have to do them over the weekend. At this point, they are a bit more than half done. And yet here I sit working on a Currently. So, now I'm debating do I stay up late and get them done, get up super early and get them done, or just face reality and do it over the weekend. Sigh. . . I have a serious procrastination problem!\nNeeding: SPRING BREAK! I am so looking forward to it. One more week to go until I have a full week off. I'm so thankful that we were able to make up our snow days without losing most of our break. I don't have any travel plans or any other big plans, but sometimes you just need a break from school stuff. Not that I won't be doing some school work over the break, but I kind of love having the option of doing it all in my pajamas if I want to!\nHours & Last Day: So, yeah those are my teacher hours - 8:35-3:20. But, honestly it is so rare that those are my actual hours. Most mornings I get in early, and I can't remember the last time I left at 3:20! Not to mention all the work that still comes home. And, I am sure I'm preaching to the choir here. :-) Only teachers truly understand the myth of \"teacher's hours.\" My last day is June 27th. I know that seems so late to my southern teachers who are well into summer vacation by them. It seems late to me, too! I remember when I started teaching we would get out mid June. It seems like out last day gets later and later as the years have gone by. The biggest issue is the heat. Our schools are not air conditioned. In late June during a heatwave, it can be pretty tough to get kids to do anything in a hot, sticky, second floor classroom!\nI enjoyed reading your blog! I know you are so excited for spring break, I'm enjoying mine now.\nhttp://ktofirst.blogspot.com/\nHi Stephanie! Isn't Spring Break a wonderful thing?!\nmegafizz April 9, 2014 at 11:16 PM\nHi Nancy! I have been a blog follower of yours for the past three years. I have you used numerous of your suggestions and ideas in my own classroom! Not a week goes by that I don't use your awesome game Heartbreaker.\nI am currently looking into some graduate programs and I was wondering if you had any suggestions. I have looked into Concordia University and my undergrad school (Northwest Missouri State University). Any suggestions would be great!\nYou're almost to spring break!\nThanks so much for being such a loyal blog reader. I love hearing that you find some of my ramblings useful! :-)\nI am sorry to have to say I probably won't be of much help to you with your school choices. I am not familiar with Concordia's or Northwest's programs. I can tell you that I have two Master's Degrees, one in reading and one in admin. Both are from the same university here in NJ that is pretty close to me and has a good reputation. I chose to attend a university with weekly classes to attend rather than do an online program because I really like the interaction and conversation that happens in the classroom. While many online programs have cyber classes where you either Skype or have to comment on a common thread from time to time, I had already done that with a couple of undergrad classes and knew it wasn't for me. So, that might be something to consider.\nAlso, a few years after I got my degrees, our district had a bit of a hubaloo about what online universities people were getting degrees from. They started to be more strict as to what online programs they would find acceptable and if they would allow tuition reimbursement for certain schools. It was a real issue for some teachers. I was thankful that I didn't have to deal with any of that.\nHaving said that, you also need to take into account the time and financial aspect of both. If you don't have a schedule that allows you to attend regularly scheduled classes, online classes might be less stressful and a better fit. Also, I believe the expense for an online degree is somewhat less. All thing to consider. Above all, make sure the school/program you pick is accredited. If for some reason you ever find yourself looking to work in a different district, you want to make sure your degree will stand up to review.\nHope this was somewhat helpful!\nmegafizz April 13, 2014 at 12:47 PM\nThanks Nancy that helped a lot!",

        "raw_content": "Guest Post: Sexual Assault By a Medical Provider Is Not a Big Deal\u2026 Until It Is\nOctober 31, 2013 Heina Dadabhoysexual assault\n[Content Notice: Sexual Assault, fatphobia]\nThe following is a first-hand account of mistreatment on several levels at the hands of a medical provider via Ania of Scribbles and Rants, a blog where she, along with her partner Alex, sheds insight onto matters as diverse as skepticism, feminism, disability, and the relationship between being an atheist and a person of color. I had the pleasure of meeting her at Eschaton last year and was impressed with her courage, passion, and intellect. I am even more impressed now.\nWhen I was 18, I was assaulted by a doctor at the university clinic.\nI had gone in to get tested for bacterial vaginosis. I was in love and wanted to make sure that I didn\u2019t smell strange if the chance to have sex ever came up. The first doctor at the clinic was very kind. She opted not to use a speculum since I was a virgin, just like every other doctor I had seen for a vaginal issue until that point. I got a call a few weeks later to come in to get my results. The doctor who saw me then was someone I had not seen before. Before she even got to the test results, she began laying into me about my weight. She told me I was morbidly obese, that diabetes must be causing the smell. I was maybe 40 lbs. heavier than my optimal weight for my height. I didn\u2019t know what fat shaming was then, but I tried standing up for myself, letting her know that my cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels were all perfect.\nThe facts didn\u2019t matter to her. She had decided that I didn\u2019t meet her standards of fitness and that the best way to deal with it was to make me feel horrible about myself. Finally, we got to the results: I did not have BV. She asked me why I had come in to check on it, and so I told her. Unexpectedly, she offered to take a look. I was shocked, but I accepted her offer. I was worried and she was a doctor. She had to be professional, right?\nAs I sat on the table, getting ready for the exam, I looked over at her and asked her not to use the speculum. I was a virgin, I told her, and the other doctor said it wasn\u2019t necessary. Then, I lay down on the cold table. There is vulnerability in that statement. Everything about the doctor\u2019s office is about power. You sit, while the doctor stands above you. You are naked, while they are dressed. You are in pain, afraid, vulnerable, and they hold the answers. Everything about the doctor-patient relationship reinforces that power dynamic. I was vulnerable on that table, exposing my private parts to a doctor who had already wounded me. She had already established her power over me, so I knew that my request was a supplication. It was her power to grant it.\nAs I lay there exposed on the cold table, worried about whether or not I was normal, the doctor violated my request. She shoved an unlubricated speculum inside me and opened it to its widest setting. I can\u2019t even remember what came next. I do remember the pain. I don\u2019t remember walking out of the clinic. I do remember trying to rush back to my dorm; I didn\u2019t want to cry in public. I looked for the room of the person I trusted most on campus but he wasn\u2019t home. In my search for him, I ended up in a room with some people I vaguely knew. I broke down crying. I told them what had happened. I was bleeding, I was sure of it. I felt torn. But I was crying about the fat shaming, had every instance of it having happened flying through my brain.\nI was lucky in some ways. The people I barely knew, who comforted me as I cried, said all the right things. They told me what happened wasn\u2019t my fault. That what she had done was wrong and that I was right to be upset. Not everyone is so lucky. But I didn\u2019t want to listen. I wasn\u2019t prepared to face that what happened to me was assault, so instead, I concentrated on the fat shaming. I convinced myself that the assault was no big deal.\nYears later, when I lost my virginity, I postponed getting a pap smear for two years. Normally, you are expected and encouraged to get one within a year of becoming sexually active, but I didn\u2019t want to be in that vulnerable position again. Moreover, I became more sensitive to fat shaming. I lost my temper more quickly whenever my weight was mentioned. It tinged all my interactions with doctors. If they brought up my weight, I found it more difficult to trust them or found myself reacting negatively to the rest of the appointment. Every time a doctor failed to listen to me, it felt like another betrayal.\nEverything came to a head when my GI made the decision to send me to the weight management clinic. The morning of the appointment, I woke up in a panic. My heart was beating like crazy. I was sweating. I couldn\u2019t focus my mind. I found myself sitting in a corner, rocking back and forth and crying. I couldn\u2019t understand why.\nAll I could think about was that doctor, her cold hands, the pain of the rough plastic edges as the speculum entered me, the stretching-tearing feeling of it being opened. I couldn\u2019t get the feeling of betrayal, of being violated, out of my mind. Superimposed over those feelings was every instance when a doctor refused to listen to me, all the times when I\u2019d had to be vulnerable with a doctor and had that vulnerability rewarded with pain and betrayal.\nWhen I realized what was going on \u2014 a panic attack \u2014 I took some anxiety medication and tried to calm myself down. I spent my day curled around myself, trying to hold myself together, as I watched the clock tick down to my appointment. I was terrified. I didn\u2019t know what would happen when I went into the clinic.\nThroughout my struggle, I realized that what I had thought was no big deal had actually been affecting my interaction with doctors for years. Suddenly, I was facing the truth: What had happened to me was a big fucking deal. I had been assaulted. By a doctor. By a member of society that I was supposed to be able to trust implicitly. By a person that everyone expected me to trust. Not only had my body been violated, so had my ability to trust that doctors had my best interest at heart. What\u2019s more, the violation brought on the realization that I was very much a member of a vulnerable population: people with disabilities are among some of the most at risk for sexual assault.\nSexual assault is about power. It is about the perpetrator feeling like they have power over the victim. It is not about sex. The inclusion of my genitals in this assault was incidental. The doctor in question wasn\u2019t trying to get any kind of sexual thrill or fulfill a sexual desire. Who I was didn\u2019t matter. She just needed to assert her own power over someone else, and I was the lucky victim.\nIf you asked her, she probably would have no idea that what she did to me was assault. She might make excuses about how she thought that the use of a speculum was necessary. She might say that she is a doctor and I am not, and that she knew better than I did. It doesn\u2019t matter what she would say. The simple truth is that I made my boundaries clear and she violated them. The fact that she did so without even the courtesy of using lubrication (standard in those types of medical procedures) is just icing on the cake. To her, it didn\u2019t matter if I felt pain. I wasn\u2019t a human being in that moment. I was at her mercy. She was the one in charge and she could do whatever she wanted to me without fear of consequences. To her, what I wanted didn\u2019t matter. And that is what makes it assault.\nAssaults by doctors, unless sensationalized and existing on a large scale, rarely get talked about \u2014 and are sometimes even trivialized. We as a society put great faith in doctors. We don\u2019t want to face that the people responsible for our health and well-being might be as human as the rest of us. We don\u2019t want to address the fact that power dynamics that are enforced as severely as those between patients and doctors puts everyone at risk of abuse. We especially don\u2019t want to talk about doctor abuse, because in doing so, we risk being lumped in with conspiracy theorists that take things too far and condemn the medical profession altogether. As an advocate of evidence-based medicine, it\u2019s difficult to draw attention to abuses perpetuated by doctors and still defend medicine as a profession.\nAnd yet, drawing attention to this abuse is very important. When someone is hurt so personally by a doctor, it can be easy to lose faith in the entire industry. Being violated by a doctor does more than affect you psychologically, it can also put your health at risk. It can make you afraid to be vulnerable with doctors again. It might mean that you try to protect yourself by keeping things to yourself that the doctor should know about. But more importantly, talking about doctor abuse is essential to help victims know that they didn\u2019t do anything wrong and that they are not alone.\nWhenever I discuss what happened to me, someone always feels the need to mention that the doctor might not have been thinking about consent but might have simply decided that using a speculum was necessary. Who was I, as an untrained patient, to decide what equipment the doctor needed or didn\u2019t need, they ask? I have questions of my own. If doctors know better, does that mean they have the right to ignore the boundaries I set for myself? Does that mean that I have no say in what happens to my body? And if so, is my body really mine? What about your body? And where do we draw the line?\n\u2190 The Huffington Post\u2019s Resident Conspiracy-Theorist Creationist\nDawkins Has It Pretty Good, Honey: An [Ex-]Muslima\u2019s Perspective \u2192\n13 thoughts on \u201cGuest Post: Sexual Assault By a Medical Provider Is Not a Big Deal\u2026 Until It Is\u201d\nThere are very narrow sets of circumstances where the patient is not the final decider of *any* treatment and patient consent is overriden. This was nowhere near one of them and damn anyone who says otherwise.\nmirability\nSomething similar happened to me two years ago. An OBGYN performed two invasive procedures without my consent, and the rest she did without explaining to me. Then my bad luck got worse and the tests she did resulted in a misdiagnosis, which she insisted was correct. She said I didn\u2019t want to accept the consequences of my \u201cactions\u201d (having sex with more than one person in my life) when I questioned it. Thankfully the two OBGYNs I saw to clear things up and confirm there was nothing wrong with me. But it was a horrible experience that I still think about. I filed a complaint with the state but after I went through the process I realized that few of those ever come to anything. If I could go back in time I would have consulted with a lawyer.\nThese days am very careful who I see for OBGYN-related issues. I look for doctors affiliated with a reliable hospital. The doctor who violated me was not, which meant avenues of complaint were smaller.\nI could probably write my own post about slut-shaming gynos. I had one who assumed I wasn\u2019t in a relationship at all when I told her I\u2019d had sex with more than one person since I\u2019d seen her, and that I was being pressured to \u201cnot commit\u201d (i.e. be nonmonogamous, which in her eyes meant a lack of commitment) by my male partner.\nUnfortunately this experience is not uncommon and I think it\u2019s important for women to keep this dialogue open about medical abuse and consent. By examining women\u2019s relationship with medical hegemony we can see how routine vaginal exams have been absorbed into mainstream thinking about how women\u2019s bodies should be cared for. Women told they are expected to submit to regular pap smears, and the language used by medical staff, by advertising and media, and by other women is often forceful and paternalistic, \u201cyou should\u201d, \u201cyou must\u201d and \u201cyou have to\u201d or \u201call women must do this\u201d there is no exception. Women who decline this testing are chastised like children and shamed for not looking after their vaginal health. Many women who express a feeling violation over this routine test are told to \u201cgrow up\u201d and \u201cget used to it\u201d because \u201cthis is part of being a women\u201d.\nWhat\u2019s interesting in all this is when you do your homework, you discover that getting a pap smear is about as necessary as getting a regular brain scan. Pap smears only look for abnormalities on the cervix, and while there\u2019s a small benefit to detecting and treating abnormal changes on the cervix \u2013 just in case it may develop into cervical cancer, the risks IMO are far more prevalent. Studies have concluded that over diagnosis and unnecessary treatment for benign cellular changes exceed the number of women who would actually go onto develop cervical cancer; this cancer is rare and always has been. But many women have been scared both emotionally and physically by the just in case it develops into a rare cancer treatment that can cause cervical scaring which can effect fertility, difficulties with pregnancy and birth, and cervical stenosis.\nThere is a different language for men when applied to routine screening of prostate and testicular cancer; men are not told they \u201cmust\u201d, they are given the risks and benefits and then a choice, and they are allowed to say no. When women say \u201cno\u201d we either get a direct order to comply or a polite \u201cyes but\u2026\u201d women\u2019s agency is not being respected. Informed consent is often missing in a medical setting and many women are unaware of their right to refuse this screening. In addition to the misinformation being touted by well meaning screening campaigns, it\u2019s understandable that women believe that vaginal exams are a part of being a woman. It\u2019s really not.\nSo, some sourced data: According to the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/cervical/statistics/), cervical cancer used to be the top cancer killer in women. Due largely to the promotion of Pap smears, it is not anymore. Hopefully HPV vaccines will make the cancer itself rare, but we\u2019re very much not there yet. It is a cancer that is typically slow to develop, which makes screening ideal, but it is not easy to treat. About a third of those diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2010 died from the disease. (http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/cervical/statistics/)\nAs for treatment, there is some discussion about the best way to deal early-stage dysplasia. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9487318) However, the NIH currently recommends monitoring, by further Pap smear, in mild cases. (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001491.htm) Colposcopy\u2013stain and magnification of the cervix to determine the extent of abnormal cells\u2013is not much more invasive than a Pap, though it is frequently accompanied by biopsies where there is extensive abnormality. Colposcopy, even with biopsy, does not contain the risks you speak of. (http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/colposcopy/MY00236/DSECTION=risks) Those risks only come with surgical removal of a patch of abnormal cells, or as I called it when I had it done, resurfacing of the cervix. That is only recommended after colposcopy and biopsy find moderate to severe abnormalities.\nAlso, if you follow all those links I provided, you\u2019ll see that all the recommendations are presented as recommendations. I agree that information like that should not be presented as demands. I disagree, however, that this is standard practice these days.\nI also disagree. As mentioned previously, cervical cancer used to be a leading cause of cancer death in American women. (Cervical Cancer killed Henrietta Lacks.) It is still a leading cause of cancer death for women in developing countries. These women typically have either totally lack or have limited access to pap smears. It also tends to strike younger women, so screening programs are more likely to extend a woman\u2019s life.\nAs for the argument that pap smears identify abnormal cells not cancer and that there are more positive pap tests than predicted cases of Cervical Cancer, that is precisely the point. Cancers start as abnormal cells. Not all abnormal cells will become cancer, but if you can find and remove abnormal cancer cells before they become cancer, you can prevent the cancer. You would, of course, expect to have more positives than predicted cancer cases in the absence of screening because you are detecting pre-cancerous cells, and we can\u2019t necessarily predict which of those positives would develop cancer. The principle is similar to dermatologists\u2019 removal of moles that have changed recently. The biopsy can show whether it\u2019s skin cancer, but in many cases, even if it\u2019s unlikely to be cancerous at this time, a dermatologist will recommend removal because it\u2019s more likely to become cancerous and removing it is a pretty low-risk procedure. The pap smear probably reduced cervical cancer deaths by 70%, and a significant number of the deaths we today are a in women who didn\u2019t have the test.\nAre unnecessary screenings pushed on women? Certainly. Mammograms in women of normal breast cancer risk come to mind. But pap smears don\u2019t fall into that category. Doctors should treat their patients with respect and recognize their autonomy, but they\u2019re also human and if a patient explains she\u2019s not interested in a pap smear because cervical cancer\u2019s always been rare and they don\u2019t actually prevent anything, that doctor is likely to argue with the patient and perhaps tell the patient that she\u2019s wrong in a less than supportive manner. (Though the no refill on the birth control pills without a pap is not okay at all in my book.)\nErin Pease\nThis sounds unfortunately so familiar to me and I hear it most often from my friends (women of childbearing age who have recently had babies.) OBs insisting on unnecessary cervical checks during pregnancy and during labor. Having procedures done to them they did not consent to like episiotomies. During the birth of my first child, the OB was poised to cut me until my doula saw her and asked if that\u2019s what I wanted. Which I then said NO! Luckily she stopped, but without my advocate (who I hired to be there with me) I would have had no idea, no protection and NO consent. I felt scared, mistrustful of every single medical professional there and was reluctant to have another baby there. (I went on to find a certified nurse midwifery practice that recognized my apprehension and went on to have two other great experiences and I continue to see them for all my GYN needs.)\nThis is a topic that gets brushed under the rug, and I hope more women can see it for what is it. Assault. Instead of being told we are \u201ccrazy\u201d and \u201csensitive\u201d and \u201cover reacting.\u201d\nI went to a gynecologist about a complaint and experienced severe pain when she swabbed me with a cotton swab. I was bent over double when I walked out of her office. I\u2019d told her about my vaginal pain issues, and instead of offering information or even basic consideration she made fun of me for being hurt by a cotton swab.\nI realize now that other women have the same problem, and that I should go to another doctor. But the humiliation was too much.\nThis happened to me at 12 years old in an ER. I went in with what ended up just being my first taste of horrible cramps, but my parents were worried that it was my appendix or something similar. The doctor decided to do a vaginal exam, but apparently couldn\u2019t find anything except the largest size of speculum available. I could hear him talking about it with the nurse and he finally just said, \u201cI\u2019ll make it work\u201d and shoved it in to me with no warning or lubrication. Again, I was 12. They could hear me screaming from the waiting room. To this day, almost 20 years later, I\u2019ve never had a pap smear done by anyone but a midwife because I can\u2019t stand the thought of feeling that level of pain again.\nThe writer uses the term assault or sexual assault, but that seems pretty definitively like full-on rape to my vocabulary. That doctor would go to fuckin\u2019 prison, if our legal system wasn\u2019t designed by Patriarchy McRapeculture.\nthistlecastle\nI\u2019ve been trying to get up the nerve to post for days. Ugh. So my first visit to the gyno was when I was 18. I was tired of my irregular periods and wanted to get on BC. As I\u2019m sitting in the paper robe in the exam room, after waiting over an hour, the doctor finally comes in. She is abrupt through the whole exam, taking my pulse, asking if I was nervous, \u201cWell, yes, this is my first gynocological exam.\u201d And she laughed at me. I went back to her for several years, not knowing any better. I did not know that it was not normal to be in pain and bleeding for three days after a pap smear. Whenever I yelped during the exam, she always ignored me. I get skin infections, boils, around the underwear area, and one time she saw one that was healing and said \u201cDoes this hurt?\u201d and stabbed it with her finger. Well, lady, it sure does now! I never felt like a human being, I felt like I was on an assembly line: swap one patient for the next, one vagina for the next, it\u2019s only body parts, not people.\nWith my current doctor (that I put off going to for 3 years). I went and and said: look, I had a really bad experience. I\u2019m super nervous, you need to go slowly and talk to me. I told her what happened, and she looked deeply concerned and said \u201cAs a doctor, it is generally my goal *not* to cause pain.\u201d And she works with me and tries to keep me as comfortable as possible. I\u2019ve never had any lasting pain or bleeding from her. I\u2019m slowly learning that this doesn\u2019t have to be traumatic.\nVirignity isn\u2019t something you lose. Your hymen could have been broken by riding a bicycle or a horse.\u2013not everyone bleeds or experiences pain. I think this account is more than a bit dramatic and should come with a TW.\nThere is a content notice at the top: \u201c[Content Notice: Sexual Assault, fatphobia]\u201d. I don\u2019t presume to know whether things are triggers for others, so I call my warnings content notices. I apologize if that wasn\u2019t enough to warn you.\nIn this case, I believe Ania meant \u201cI had my first sexual experience\u201d by \u201cI lost my virginity\u201d, not \u201cmy hymen was breached.\u201d",

Sharing research data enables others to verify and build upon published results, supports transparency and accountability of research findings, increases the return on public investments in research, encourages new scientific innovations, and facilitates collaboration within and across disciplines. However, there are real challenges associated with sharing data with the broader community. Fortunately, many of these challenges can be overcome with careful data management planning and implementation.\nThe Arab Social Science Data Archive initiative aims to address the fact that quantitative research methods and the datasets to which they are applied are not widely accessible in the Arab region. It aims to create an ACSS Dataverse as an ongoing resource with a growing number of quantitative datasets on the Arab region for use by Arab social scientists.\nThe workshop will examine the opportunities and challenges of sharing quantitative data resources as well as the mechanisms available to help researchers produce and share high-quality datasets.\nWorkshop participants will learn about:\nThe basics of data curation and the planning of institutional services for researchers;\nThe benefits of quantitative data sharing to both the individual researcher and to the scientific enterprise as a whole;\nThe complexities of research data based on disciplinary context, format, technical requirements, and applicable policies;\nThe implementation of data management standards and best practices across the research data lifecycle to produce and share high-quality datasets;\nPreparation of datasets for analysis and best practices in data processing;\nThe application of the Data Quality Review framework for ensuring computational reproducibility of reported research findings; and\nMechanisms for archiving research data for long-term preservation, discovery, access, and reuse.\nThe three-day training workshop will be held in English.\nTraining will be from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm.\nParticipants are expected to fully participate in all sessions.\nParticipants will be given an official ACSS-Odum Institute certificate upon successful completion of the workshop.\nDay 1: Tuesday, April 9, 2019\n09:00 \u2013 13:00 (including coffee break) | Research Data: Opportunities, Life Cycle and Complexities\nThe Research Data Life Cycle\nMaking data FAIR\nData Quality Review Framework\nChallenges in Digital Preservation\n14:00 \u2013 17:00 (including coffee break) | Research Data Management Plans\nTopics of Research Data Management Plans\nExercise: Planning Your Research Data Workflows\n09:00 \u2013 13:00 (including coffee break) | Data Cleaning and Analytics\nTidy Data Principles\nExercise: Tidy Data in Spreadsheets\nOverview of Statistical Software Packages\n14:00 \u2013 17:00 (including coffee break) | Data Management in the Social Sciences\nPrinciples of Data Management in the Social Sciences\nData Management Exercise\n09:00 \u2013 13:00 (including coffee break) | Data Documentation\nMetadata Introduction\nData Documentation in the Social Sciences\nExercise: DDI\n14:00 \u2013 17:00 (including coffee break) | Bringing It All Together\nData Access, Reuse and Sharing\nUtilizing the Global Research Data Infrastructure\nExercise: Planning Your Own Institutional Services and Infrastructure\nBe citizens of an Arab League member state or nationals of an Arab country (defined as long-term residents, even if they do not hold citizenship as in the case of refugees or stateless residents).\nReside in the Arab region.

        "raw_content": "The Anglican Church of Canada is inviting corporate sponsorship of its national convention this year\nAn interesting article by Michael Valpy in The Globe and Mail caught my attention today\u2026\nThe Anglican Church of Canada is inviting corporate sponsorship of its national convention this year, selling space for brand logos on delegate documents, advertising signs in its meeting spaces and a private lunch for executives with the church\u2019s senior archbishop.\nIt\u2019s the first time in its 117-year history that the Canadian church made its governing synod available for a mess of pottage \u2013 to use the language of the Bible\u2019s Old Testament allusion to Esau selling his birthright for a lentil stew. For that matter, no other Canadian church is known to have sold advertising at its formal gatherings and access to its leaders.\nThe synod will be held June 3-11 at St. Mary\u2019s University in Halifax.\nAsked about the genesis of the sponsorship idea, Vianney Carri\u00e8re, the Anglicans\u2019 national director of communications and information resources, said: \u201cThe genesis is the need for money.\u201d In particular, he said, the church must find private money to pay the $10,000 cost of live-streaming the nine-day gathering, Synod on Demand, or cancel the webcast.\nBy most indices the Anglican Church is struggling \u2013 declining faster than any other Christian denomination in Canada, according to a recent report from its Diocese of British Columbia, closing decades-old parishes for want of money and \u201cmoved to the far margins of public life.\u201d\nSponsors will be grouped into three categories: visionary (for a $30,000 price-tag), supporter ($7,500) and friend ($2,500).\nMr. Carri\u00e8re said that, ideally, the church is looking for commercial sponsorships from firms with which it does business, such as insurance companies. In general, he said, good-taste criteria would govern what sponsorships are accepted. Casino advertisements, for example, would be ruled out.\nThe church\u2019s corporate sponsorship announcement provides potential advertisers not only with a demographic description of synod delegates and webcast viewers, but a rundown of what will be discussed and the estimated size of the viewing audience.\n\u201cMembers are predominantly over 40,\u201d the announcement says, \u201cand while many are retired, they are quite frequently found to be not-for-profit leaders and tireless community volunteers.\u201d\nThe synod agenda is described as \u201ctimely, relevant and important and includes debates, resolutions and presentations on major global issues such as poverty, human sexuality, the rights of indigenous peoples and the care of the environment.\u201d\nOne visionary-level sponsorship will be available, giving the purchaser a private lunch with the church\u2019s national primate, Archbishop Fred Hiltz, and it will include the right to put company logo flags on every delegate dining table, logo displays and commercials on the webcast screen, a one-page company information spread in the synod directory distributed to all 500 delegates, a showcase booth, prominent advertisements at the convention site and a \u201cpassport\u201d to the synod (meals included) for two company executives.\nThe three supporter-level sponsors will get a half-page advertisement in the synod directory, signage throughout the convention space, web-cast commercials and a \u201cpassport\u201d for one executive.\nThe unspecified number of friend-level sponsors will get their company name printed in Acts of Faith, the church\u2019s gift guide.\nThe idea was conceived by the church\u2019s national headquarters staff.\n\u201cWe hope that inviting the support of corporate sponsors for general synod will have a positive impact on the church\u2019s ability to ensure the sustainability of this gathering for years to come,\u201d Archbishop Hiltz said in a statement. \u201cIt also presents a new avenue for Canadian Anglicans, particularly those who own their own businesses, to support this event.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Parley: April 2015 - The Accidental Fundraiser: Gord Durnan\nA Prescription for Philanthropy\nAs one of Canada\u2019s very first health care fundraisers, Gord Durnan followed his passion for philanthropy and quickened the pulse of a country\u2019s worth of professionals.\nFrom an early age, Gord Durnan had a predisposition for philanthropy, but going into university, he hadn\u2019t considered it a career option.\nBorn in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario to a mother who volunteered with the Canadian Red Cross during World War II and a father who travelled weekly to Ottawa as a \u201cdollar a year man,\u201d Gord grew up in a family with a passion for community service. \u201cMy parents set great examples,\u201d he says. \u201cThey were always involved in the community as volunteers and donors.\u201d\nAfter a stint studying computer science at the University of Waterloo, it was no surprise to his parents when Gord announced that he wanted to switch streams and join a program in community recreation leadership at Toronto\u2019s Centennial College. \u201cI wanted to work with people, not computers,\u201d he says. \u201cMy parents thought it was a fabulous idea and were very supportive of my choice.\u201d\nAfter graduation, Gord secured a job with the Canadian Red Cross and worked in water safety in the organization\u2019s Ontario division before moving to the British Columbia-Yukon division for a few years. After taking some time to travel the world, Gord returned to Canada in 1972 and became Director of Blood Donor Services for the Ontario Red Cross. In this role, he enjoyed a few years of visiting communities and volunteers across the province, from Elliot Lake to Windsor to Ottawa. Within a few years, Gord became the first-ever Director of Development for the Ontario Red Cross.\nAfter he married his wife, Dale, in 1975, Gord decided it was time to settle in one spot. He answered an ad in the Globe and Mail, and in 1977 became the Managing Director of the York Central Hospital Foundation in Richmond Hill, a city just north of Toronto.\nAt the time, the only other professional fundraiser in a hospital in Canada was the newly hired president of the Hospital for Sick Children Foundation, Gord recalls. \u201cAt the time hospitals raised money once every 15 or 20 years, whenever they needed to do a large project, such as building a new wing. There was no notion of health care fundraising that happened on an ongoing basis.\u201d\nWhen Gord joined York Central, something had changed. The Board of Directors said it never again wanted to start a campaign from scratch. \u201cThey\u2019d built up expertise and a knowledge base, and they didn\u2019t want to waste it,\u201d he explains. \u201cThey said, \u2018Let\u2019s keep in touch with these donors. Let\u2019s create a foundation and hire staff so we can continue to have great relations with the community.\u2019\u201d\nWhile it was exciting to be at the forefront of this new approach, it was also kind of lonely, Gord says. Not only were there few charities (when Gord began fundraising, Canada had around 3,500 charities\u2014now it has upwards of 90,000), health care was not a major philanthropic focus in Canada.\nTo expand his knowledge and network, Gord attended conferences in the United States and joined the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) and the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy (AHP). For a few years, he served as the only Canadian director on each organization\u2019s Board. He also became one of the first Canadians to receive the Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) designation from AFP, and the first to receive the Fellow (FAHP) designation from AHP.\nHe wasn\u2019t alone for long. As charity activity expanded in Canada and more people began to join the ranks, a professional community began to develop. Gord and a handful of his colleagues\u2014such as Gordon Goldie, Dan King and Ross McGregor\u2014set to work creating the first AFP chapter for Toronto.\n\u201cWe needed to create our own professional group,\u201d Gord says. \u201cIt\u2019s so powerful to see new young fundraisers learning at excellent AFP conferences. To me, it means that philanthropy in Canada will continue to grow and get better, and have a greater impact on society.\u201d\nAfter 10 years with York Central, Gord and his family moved to Muskoka, where he began a new position as the Managing Director of the South Muskoka Hospital Foundation in Bracebridge. By the late 1980s and into the 1990s, hospital foundations begun to blossom across the country.\n\u201cPeople were beginning to realize that though governments provided adequate health care under our social system, if they wanted excellent health care, they\u2019d have to do it themselves,\u201d he says.\nLargely due to Gord\u2019s and his colleagues\u2019 efforts, a network was born. Today, most fundraisers are willing to share knowledge and give advice, he says. \u201cOver my career, I presented to more than 75 hospital foundations across the country. My board understood that I had to play that role.\u201d\nGord believes the fundraising profession has grown in Canada because people are passionate about making better communities. \u201cIn philanthropy, you can make a difference and live your values. That\u2019s empowering, and it\u2019s important work.\u201d\nThroughout his full and rich professional career, Gord has been honoured with the Queen\u2019s Golden Jubilee Medal and the AHP\u2019s Si Seymour Award. In 1996, he was named Fundraising Executive of the Year by AFP.\nIn 2005, Gord retired from South Muskoka Hospital Foundation to launch his \u201cvolunteer\u201d career. These days, he serves his community in several roles, including Vice Chair of the Muskoka Community Foundation, Vice Chair Pro Tem of the Nipissing University Board of Governors, and Director of the Cottage Country Family Health Team Board. He also participates in his local Rotary Club.\nMany organizations still seek Gord\u2019s advice and ask him share his expertise. He gladly obliges. \u201cIt\u2019s so rewarding to visit groups, share some knowledge, and see what they accomplish,\u201d he says. \u201cPeople won\u2019t let me stop, but I\u2019m having a blast. Philanthropy is what gets me up in the morning.\u201d\nGord Durnan: Three Things Every Fundraiser Should Know\nWe asked fundraiser Gord Durnan to share some wisdom he learned during his career. Here\u2019s what he told us:\nListen to your community and donors, and help them achieve those goals through philanthropy. \u201cIt\u2019s all about listening.\u201d\nIt\u2019s not the organization that needs the funds, it\u2019s the community. \u201cWe tend to think too much about organizations having needs, but the truth is that organizations have solutions. If nobody was suffering, we wouldn\u2019t need the host of valuable and important charities meeting community needs throughout Canada.\u201d\nSay thank you. \u201cAnd thank you, and thank you. And show the community and your donors what they\u2019ve accomplished, so they want to do more.\u201d\n\u201cIf we could only do these three things,\u201d Gord says, \u201cCanada could be one of the world\u2019s smartest and most caring countries.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "unholy bias\nTHE United Nations (UN) will find it extremely difficult to erase India\u2019s observation that the world body has demonstrated an unholy bias against India through some of its reports on the situation in Kashmir. India\u2019s Permanent Representative to the UN has blasted two of its reports on so-called violations of human rights in Kashmir and also on so-called involvement of children in armed conflict. Ms. Lal has made it absolutely clear that the United Nations has presented reports that have no semblance with reality of Kashmir and therefore the world body has displayed an anti-India bias. This very reality sullies the reputation of the United Nations as the apex body of world affairs. For, the expectation form it is that it discharges its duty with no prejudice, which in other words means pre judgement.\nOn several occasions in the past, India has proved beyond doubt to the world that its conduct of Kashmir affairs has always remained above board. India has made it clear that a proxy war has been imposed on India by powers that be across the border, and that those powers are using children as a human shield against Indian security forces. When hundreds of children emerge from their secure homes and indulge in wanton stone pelting in an organised manner, it is obvious that theirs is not an impromptu action but a pre-planned one. For, the moment the security forces begin their operations, hundreds of children emerge from their homes all at once and start pelting stones at the security personnel. How do all those kids get the information so quickly and how do they get so many stones or pebbles on the streets? The world has agreed that these questions are legitimate.\nYet, the United Nations has passed a resolution to protect children in armed conflict. India has responded by stressing that the UN\u2019s definition of armed conflict needs correction since it does not meet the norms that specify armed conflict. To this, too, the United Nations will have no answer. India, obviously, made its points very clear.\nIt is unfortunate that the UN should demonstrate such a bias. If this tendency grows, India will lose its faith in the world body. It must be noted with pride that India has been constantly helping the UN on its peace keeping missions the world over. Countless Indian soldiers have laid their lives in the interest of world peace and harmony across the world. India has also abided by all the UN resolutions in larger universal interests. India has also been one of the most enthusiastic supporters of the causes the UN has always espoused.\nDespite this, if the UN wants to play into the hands of some vested interests to ignore the truth about a member-nation as important as India, then it is serving no actual and fruitful purpose. The two reports and the resolution indicate that the UN is acting as a hand-maiden of vested interests like Pakistan that has often violated the UN Charter in this or that way. This conduct on the part of the United Nations just does not go well with its mandates task and its reputation.\nIndia has done well to remind the United Nations of this stark truth about itself. Now also, if the UN refuses to mend its manner, then India should feel free to make its own choice about so many issues that are pending attention. Terrorism is certainly a global concern and India has been on the forefront of the fight against menace. The UN reports seek to undermine India\u2019s efforts as well as reputation. The reports give a handle to Pakistan to malign India\u2019s image. On the strength of these two reports, Pakistan can now accuse India of violating the UN code.\nThis is one thing India can never tolerate since it presents a blatant lie. The shamelessness with which the UN is pursuing a wrong cause should make its head hang in shame.",

        "raw_content": "We carefully seek out those most in need of our care, support and time.\nAbout Mrs. Kinguser2019-01-08T20:26:10+00:00\nCoretta Scott King was one of the most influential women leaders in our world. Prepared by her family, education, and personality for a life committed to social justice and peace, she entered the world stage in 1955 as wife of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and as a leading participant in the American Civil Rights Movement. Her remarkable partnership with Dr. King resulted not only in four children, who became dedicated to carrying forward their parent\u2019s work, but also in a life devoted to the highest values of human dignity in service to social change. Mrs. King traveled throughout the world speaking out on behalf of racial and economic justice, women\u2019s and children\u2019s rights, gay and lesbian dignity, religious freedom, the needs of the poor and homeless, full-employment, health care, educational opportunities, nuclear disarmament and environmental justice. She lent her support to pro-democracy movements world-wide and consulted with many world leaders, including Corazon Aquino, Kenneth Kaunda, and Nelson Mandela.\nBorn and raised in Marion, Alabama, Coretta Scott graduated valedictorian from Lincoln High School. She received a B.A. in music and education from Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio, and then went on to study concert singing at Boston\u2019s New England Conservatory of Music, where she earned a degree in voice and violin. While in Boston she met Martin Luther King, Jr. who was then studying for his doctorate in systematic theology at Boston University. They were married on June 18, 1953, and in September 1954 took up residence in Montgomery, Alabama, with Coretta Scott King assuming the many responsibilities of pastor\u2019s wife at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church.\nDuring Dr. King\u2019s career, Mrs. King devoted most of her time to raising their four children: Yolanda Denise (1955), Martin Luther, III (1957), Dexter Scott (1961), and Bernice Albertine (1963). From the earliest days, however, she balanced mothering and Movement work, speaking before church, civic, college, fraternal and peace groups. She conceived and performed a series of favorably-reviewed Freedom Concerts which combined prose and poetry narration with musical selections and functioned as significant fundraisers for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the direct action organization of which Dr. King served as first president. In 1957, she and Dr. King journeyed to Ghana to mark that country\u2019s independence. In 1958, they spent a belated honeymoon in Mexico, where they observed first-hand the immense gulf between extreme wealth and extreme poverty. In 1959, Dr. and Mrs. King spent nearly a month in India on a pilgrimage to disciples and sites associated with Mahatma Gandhi. In 1964, she accompanied him to Oslo, Norway, where he received the Nobel Peace Prize. Even prior to her husband\u2019s public stand against the Vietnam War in 1967, Mrs. King functioned as liaison to peace and justice organizations, and as mediator to public officials on behalf of the unheard.\nAfter her husband\u2019s assassination in 1968, Mrs. King founded and devoted great energy and commitment to building and developing programs for the Atlanta-based Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change as a living memorial to her husband\u2019s life and dream. Situated in the Freedom Hall complex encircling Dr. King\u2019s tomb, The King Center is today located inside of a 23-acre national historic park which includes his birth home, and which hosts over one million visitors a year.\nAs founding President, Chair, and Chief Executive Officer, she dedicated herself to providing local, national and international programs that have trained tens of thousands of people in Dr. King\u2019s philosophy and methods; she guided the creation and housing of the largest archives of documents from the Civil Rights Movement; and, perhaps her greatest legacy after establishing The King Center itself, Mrs. King spearheaded the massive educational and lobbying campaign to establish Dr. King\u2019s birthday as a national holiday. In 1983, an act of Congress instituted the Martin Luther King, Jr. Federal Holiday Commission, which she chaired for its duration. And in January 1986, Mrs. King oversaw the first legal holiday in honor of her husband\u2013a holiday which has come to be celebrated by millions of people world-wide and, in some form, in over 100 countries.\nCoretta Scott King tirelessly carried the message of nonviolence and the dream of the beloved community to almost every corner of our nation and globe. She led goodwill missions to many countries in Africa, Latin America, Europe and Asia. She spoke at many of history\u2019s most massive peace and justice rallies. She served as a Women\u2019s Strike for Peace delegate to the seventeen-nation Disarmament Conference in Geneva, Switzerland in 1962. She was the first woman to deliver the class day address at Harvard, and the first woman to preach at a statutory service at St. Paul\u2019s Cathedral in London.\nA life-long advocate of interracial coalitions, in 1974 Mrs. King formed a broad coalition of over 100 religious, labor, business, civil and women\u2019s rights organizations dedicated to a national policy of full employment and equal economic opportunity, as Co-Chair of both the National Committee for Full Employment and the Full Employment Action Council. In 1983, she brought together more than 800 human rights organizations to form the Coalition of Conscience, sponsors of the 20th Anniversary March on Washington, until then the largest demonstration ever held in our nation\u2019s capital. In 1987, she helped lead a national Mobilization Against Fear and Intimidation in Forsyth County, Georgia. In 1988, she re-convened the Coalition of Conscience for the 25th anniversary of the March on Washington. In preparation for the Reagan-Gorbachev talks, in 1988 she served as head of the U.S. delegation of Women for a Meaningful Summit in Athens, Greece; and in 1990, as the USSR was redefining itself, Mrs. King was co-convener of the Soviet-American Women\u2019s Summit in Washington, DC.\nIn 1985 Mrs. King and three of her children, Yolanda, Martin III and Bernice were arrested at the South African embassy in Washington, DC, for protesting against apartheid.\nOne of the most influential African-American leaders of her time, Mrs. King received honorary doctorates from over 60 colleges and universities; authored three books and a nationally-syndicated newspaper column; and served on and helped found dozens of organizations, including the Black Leadership Forum, the National Black Coalition for Voter Participation, and the Black Leadership Roundtable.\nDuring her lifetime, Mrs. King dialogued with heads of state, including prime ministers and presidents, as well as participating in protests alongside rank and file working people of all races. She met with many great spiritual leaders, including Pope John Paul, the Dalai Lama, Dorothy Day, and Bishop Desmond Tutu. She witnessed the historic handshake between Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Chairman Yassir Arafat at the signing of the Middle East Peace Accords. She stood with Nelson Mandela in Johannesburg when he became South Africa\u2019s first democratically-elected president. A woman of wisdom, compassion and vision, Coretta Scott King tried to make ours a better world and, in the process, made history.\nMrs. King died in 2006. A few days after her death, thousands of Atlantans stood in line in the pouring sleet to pay their respects to her at a viewing in Ebenezer Baptist Church. She is today interred alongside her husband in a memorial crypt in the reflecting pool of The King Center\u2019s Freedom Hall Complex, visited by hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world year-round. The inscription on the crypt memorializing her life of service is from I Corinthians 13:13 \u2013\u201cAnd now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.\u201d",

        "title": "Atlantic Salmon Flies: Connecticut Broodstock Atlantic Salmon Season: Month by Month",
        "raw_content": "Connecticut Broodstock Atlantic Salmon Season: Month by Month\nA handsome early season salmon\nAs I'm starting to compile a list of anglers interested in guided trips this season, I find myself typing the same information over and over again. Most of it has to do with the when to plan a trip, as the character of each month can very different from the other months. This information might be helpful to the greater public, plus I won't have to type it out again if I post it on my blog. Here is the rundown as I see it and as it pertains to the Naugatuck River fishery:\nSeptember: As far as I know, there has only been one season with a September start, which was in 2013. This was before the state published stocking information on social media sites and I had some \"inside information\" about when the surprise first stocking would happen. I was out on the river as soon as I could get there and I had the place to myself for about two weeks. I caught a bunch of salmon, however, the temperatures were borderline for a safe release. At that time, a salmon could be harvested in September. The only one I ever kept was one, caught that September, that I couldn't revive. Now, September salmon can no longer be retained.\nBecause of the borderline water temperature (often reaching 70\u00ba by mid day), fishing was best early and late. The fish were very active and aggressive when the temperature agreed with them. When it got too warm, they sulked. As such, I planned my trips for times it would least dangerous for the salmon, opting to stay home on the warmest days. Once we got into October, the temperature was no longer an issue.\nI don't know if we'll ever see a September start again, but it was nice. As long as anglers pay attention to the water temperatures, it can be a fun and productive time to fish, particularly with small flies, dry flies, floating lines, and single handed rods.\nI suspect this extremely hard fighting salmon was one of the barren fish.\nOctober: Traditionally, the first salmon are stocked during the first or second week of October. The first salmon are small, averaging 3-6 lbs. What they lack in size they make up for in spunk. These fish are usually aggressive, take a fly well, and are willing to rise to a dry fly under the right conditions. The chance of catching a barren salmon exists now (one that won't spawn). Barren salmon fight much harder than post-spawn hatchery fish. The best broodstock salmon fights I've experienced have been with what I suspect were barren salmon, which are usually more silvery than dull gray. They are still feeding and are suckers for a sz. 6 Mickey Finn.\nThe fewest number of salmon are in the river in the first half of October, but it is my favorite time to fish. We haven't turned back the clocks yet and the evening bite is usually still good. The fish will take a variety of flies, will be interested in different presentations, and will chase long distances. When hooked, many will fight hard and will jump several times. If you're lucky enough to hook into a barren fish, you might even see some high flying cartwheels.\nLate October is a transitional period. I usually start out with a single handed rod. If we have a low water autumn, I will stick with that rod for the month. If we experience normal-to-high water, I fish a short two handed rod, usually no longer than 12' or so. The water is still warm enough to get salmon to the surface, so I rarely use a sinking tip or line.\nThe larger fish now make their appearance later in the season.\nNovember: The first Sunday in November brings us one less hour of daylight. November also brings us falling temperatures and lots of falling leaves. Though the leaves can be a nuisance, the salmon will still take flies. We might even get accumulating snow in November. The water is usually high enough to use a two handed rod all month. Early in the month, an unweighted fly on a mono leader is usually enough. As the month goes on, however, it might be necessary to use a polyleader, sink tip, and/or weighted fly to get down to the more lethargic fish.\nThe larger salmon make their appearance starting in November, typically near the middle to the end of the month. The salmon can weight up to 20 lbs. or more. In past years, large fish weren't all that uncommon. Now, there are much fewer than there used to be, though they can still be targeted. With a little luck, they can be hooked. With even more luck, they can be landed!\nDue to the falling water temperature, the fishing in November is usually a little slower paced than in September or October. The trade-off is that there are more fish in the river and there is the chance of catching a much larger fish. A warm spell in November can mean terrific fishing. The dry fly isn't as much of an option, however, the first dry fly CT salmon I caught was during a November warm streak. Anything can happen.\nI guide more during November than any other month. It's probably the best month to get an overall feel for the fishery. The fish have spread out by then and more pools are in play than earlier in the season. It sounds strange but, on the lower Naugatuck, the higher water actually makes wading easier, allowing the angler to fish further down the runs in the less rocky sections.\nDecember brings sinking lines and bigger flies\nDecember: Without a doubt, December is the oddest of all the months. Usually by early December, all of the that season's salmon will have been stocked...but...anglers are allowed to retain one salmon per day beginning on December 1. For a brief period of time, there will be more (and bigger) salmon in the river in December than in any other month, although, this is a declining balance as fish are caught and kept. Also, the old salmon will have really spread throughout the system by December.\nI have had tremendous fishing in early December some seasons. I've also had some pretty forgettable fishing in other years. The quality of the fishing is usually dictated by the weather. December 2015 was really warm and the fishing was off the charts. It was one of my best months ever. I've had a few 5+ salmon days in various Decembers. But it is a crapshoot.\nKnowing the movement patterns of the salmon helps figure out where salmon will be lurking in December. They are usually getting ready to hunker down for winter. Covering water is essential as the fish tend to spread out more and hold in slower water. As such, a two handed rod is a very useful tool since sinking lines become a regular piece of gear. The small flies of the early season get put back into their boxes, away go the dry flies, and large, mobile tube flies become most useful.\nAs is the case in November, a warm stretch can really make for good fishing. Most of the days will be cold, however, and the best fishing confined to a short window in the early afternoon. By 4:45pm, it is often too dark fish and the fish are too lethargic to bother leaving their lies. Our commute home is just in time for rush hour traffic.\nWhen it comes to my own fishing in December, I tend to cherrypick my days and times. I don't spend all day on the river. This is a time of year when I actually recommend half day guide trips over full day trips. Like I said before, it's a gamble, especially when planning far in advance.\nA nice salmon, caught on Dec. 27, 2015. This was one of five that day.\nWinter (January-March): Admittedly, I don't fish often during the winter months. I'm usually sort of tired of it by then and I have a lot of tying to do for customers traveling to Canada and Europe for Atlantic salmon fishing in the spring and summer. When the weather warms up for a few days, I'll go out and try my luck as long as the river isn't too icy. A warm streak will melt snow and bring up the river, but the fish will usually go on the feed. If there hasn't been too much retention, it can be possible to catch a fish or two, sometimes more. Mid-to-late March can be good if the winter isn't too brutal or lengthy. I had a particularly good March a few years ago. There are no guarantees when it comes to salmon fishing, particularly at this time of year.\nExpect to fish low and slow during the winter. Cover water and fish the middle of the day. It's not necessary to get on the river in the early morning and it's usually not necessary to stay until sunset. It's a good way to fight off cabin fever. If there hasn't been rampant poaching and/or retention, there will still be a fair amount of salmon around, certainly enough to target.\nSmall, silvery salmon caught on April 29\nSpring & Summer: The salmon season closes temporarily beginning on April 1. It reopens on opening day, which is the second Saturday in April. If there are enough salmon left to target in spring, they will be on the feed. The sinking lines can be ditched in favor of floating lines and mono leaders as long as the river isn't too high. The salmon pictured above was caught on April 29, which is the latest in the spring I've ever caught one (I've usually moved on to spring runs by then). It can be worth a shot if you know where salmon might be. The bonus is that there are usually trout around at the same time.\nThe latest I've heard of a salmon being hooked was during a cold period in early July. It appears as if some actually hold over, though it is anyone's guess if they can make it through the heat of August and early September. I once tried to find them in July, based on some local intel. I waited until we had some unseasonably cool weather and was fishing at first light. The water was about 65\u00baF. I didn't wind up finding any salmon, though I landed a beautiful, acrobatic, holdover rainbow trout.\nThat's the long and short of it, at least in my experience. Though I fish the Naugatuck River, I imagine the Shetucket follows similar patterns. I like my broodstock salmon fishing to mirror my wild salmon fishing as much as possible, so I tend to favor the warmer months, or at least the months that aren't too freezing. I have a couple friends who prefer the cold and who do quite well in winter. To each, his or her own.\nIf you have any questions, you know where to find me...\nLabels: CT salmon, New England, tips",

I just wanted to go there by myself and cab it back home without having to bother anybody. However, since I will be under general anesthesia, they won't allow me to go home alone. Who can I molest now into picking me up and possibly giving me a ride back? Once again, my good buddy Danny is there to the rescue. Makes me wonder how many times he has bailed me out of a situation. I wonder if most people out there are fortunate enough to have a Danny. Of course I'd be more than willing to provide the same kind of support if it were the other way around.

The cycles depicting the flow of the energy within the body mirror the two cycles that depict the interaction between the five elements\nIf you are a practising therapist inthe field of Taoist Healing and are seeking additional accreditation or you are studying Taoist Healing or related subjects you can gain a range of accreditation through the Institute of Therapies Management.\nThe College of Management Science distance learning course in Taoist Healing is based upon the teachings of the Master Mantak Chia.",

        "raw_content": "Icon of Our Lady of Czestowa\nI just want to share a pretty neat coincidence of Church history and real life.\nOver the weekend I went on a pilgrimage with a group from my diocese to a few notable churches in a nearby city. One of them was a big, gorgeous, French Gothic Cathedral Basilica that looks like it was transplanted from Europe. Another was a (ethinically) Polish Church with very ornate paintings inside, a beautiful icon of our Lady of Czestowa above the tabernacle (which was behind the altar), and a relic of Blessed Pope John Paul II. We were lucky enough to have our bishop along with us, and he was our tour guide, being very familiar with both churches (he actually had been baptized at the Polish church, and he served at the Cathedral Basilica before becoming the Bishop of our diocese).\nThroughout showing us around the churches, in addition to telling us about the history of the building, he told us a lot about the architecture, statues, stained glass, and paintings. He kept on stressing how the images serve, in addition to creating a religious ambiance, to instruct viewers without words, especially back in a time when not everyone was literate. That was the perfect thing for him to point out, since, coincidentally my reading assignment for my Church History class was On The Divine Images by St. John of Damascus. This was great! The bishop was talking about the importance of images in our churches and that same weekend I was reading St. John's defense of using divine images! (Mind blown by this coincidence.)\nIcon of John of Damascus. And he's holding an icon!\nSt. John of Damascus lived ca. 650 to ca. 749, and resigned from a post in the Muslim Caliph's court to join a monastery. He was ordained a priest and wrote about theology, philosophy and liturgy. During the period of 725 to 774, there was a period of iconoclasm, brought about by the imperial policy of Emperor Leo III, who wanted to forbid \"worshiping\" statues. John of Damascus was conveniently located outside of the Byzantine empire, so he could write rather freely in contradiction of the emperor's policies. This was his reason for writing his treatise, which is seen as \"one of the most important reflections on the theological issues at stake in the iconoclastic controversies\" (1). Here is a link to Part I of the Apology against Those who Attack the Divine Images (not the translation I read, but probably close enough). This one may be easier on the eyes.\nOne of the ways St. John explains that images are not worshiped instead of God is by describing the nature of worship itself. While worship is the way that we revere or honor something, there are different levels in which it is applied. He explains that Adoration, or in Latin, latria, is the highest worship, which is due only to God. This is probably why we use the phrase \"Eucharistic Adoration\" rather than a more general term. On the other hand, we can also honor something that is not as high as God, but still deserves some degree of reverence. This honor is in Latin called dulia. I think these terms are also used to explain how we don't \"worship\" Mary as God, and how we pray to her and to saints. St. John says some other interesting things, so I recommending reading some if this treatise (I only had to read Part I for class, not the whole thing).\n1.

        "title": "Messi path looks clear \u2013 THE TURF",
        "raw_content": "Messi path looks clear\nIt was only a few hours before Lionel Messi\u2019s Argentina was due to face Belgium in their quarter final that news broke concerning the severity of Neymar\u2019s injury \u2013 he is to be ruled out of the remainder of the World Cup with a fractured vertebrae. The poster boy, the talisman, Brazil\u2019s (and, really, the world\u2019s) diamond had been smashed by a nasty Colombian knee to the back. The tackle wasn\u2019t outright vicious, but a raised knee, coming in at that speed, is not how a professional footballer attempts to win the ball. The entire host nation is in mourning, and it was noticeable that, despite the knock out win over the Colombians, celebrations were muted at best. Brazil was shaken by the loss of Neymar. And so, preparing for his own nation\u2019s knock out clash, Lionel Messi stands alone as the man to define this World Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo was hamstrung by a bad team, Eden Hazard has been bafflingly subdued, and the Germans and Dutch are more teams based around the collective than an individual. Though Argentina (as their coach has recently stressed publicly) is far from just Messi and 10 others, it has been Messi who has dragged them this far. He has made up for their suspect defence, he has scored late winners when they\u2019ve been needed and it is he, now that Neymar has been rubbed out, who can take control of the final stages of this competition and lead his team to the Cup. The World Cup trophy depicts two figures holding up the Earth. Argentina need only one Atlas to hoist them up, and he already has shown he can do it.\nWhen Spain, the ultimate \u2018team\u2019s team\u2019 was eliminated, the narratives shifted to ones fuelled by individuals. Teams were defined by their stars; Messi for Argentina, Neymar for Brazil, James Rodriguez for Colombia, Sanchez for Chile, Joel Campbell, Tim Cahill, and so on. And though these men have been singularly crucial in certain games, like Robben in the win over Spain, and Rodriguez in the win over Uruguay, only Messi has been consistently relied on by his team to be the star, and has consistently delivered. We need to remember a few things as well. Messi has been the world\u2019s best player for a while, so every team playing Barcelona and Argentina know who to mark heavily. We saw in the quarter final against Brazil that James Rodriguez, sublime as he is, was marked out of the game by a physical Brazil side. They harried and barged him into relative obscurity for most of the match, and when he did affect it meaningfully with the penalty, it was too little, too late. He has to get used to this because, after such a breakout tournament, a bright red target is permanently on his back now. Messi has had the same target on his back for the past five years at least, and has learned to thrive in spite of it. So with this automatic handicap, Messi has still excelled, though, crucially, only at club level. Those who rail against Messi\u2019s apparent supremacy, who get strangely annoyed at the accolades poured onto him, always point out the same thing to bolster their views; Messi is yet to impress at a World Cup. And it is true (not that this alters his status as the world\u2019s best player) \u2013 he hasn\u2019t had a fantastic, Maradona-level World Cup. Until this one. Potentially.\nIf \u2013 and it is a fairly big if \u2013 he can keep it up, he will break through the last barrier that blocks his way. Maradona single-handedly won the biggest prize in football for Argentina, Messi hasn\u2019t done that yet (although nobody mentions that no one else has either). Messi now faces the prospect of the Netherlands. He is only three games away from lifting the cup, and Messi has single handedly won three games in a row before. So not only is it more than feasible on the pitch, the narrative path is also clear. If there is a silver lining of Neymar\u2019s injury for the neutral (because for any team potentially facing Brazil, no lining is needed, they\u2019re overjoyed about the injury alone) it is that Messi now stands alone as the only remaining national superstar icon. There will never be a better time to take advantage of this.\nIt is lonely at the top, but it sure beats sharing your seat.\nWords by Evan Graham Morgan\nCuiaba; an experience like no other",

        "raw_content": "YOUTH THEATRE RESIDENCY PROGRAM\nHundreds of youth in middle schools, high schools, and juvenile detention camps take part in our cornerstone playwriting and performance workshops each year.\nOur cornerstone Youth Theatre Residency Program offers underserved and incarcerated youth experiential theatre-arts education and mentorship via two, back-to-back, 10-week after-school workshops. Led by professional teaching artists, youth in our workshops collaborate to create and perform an original play born out of their shared hopes and fears. Workshop curricula are certified under California state education standards for English Language Writing and Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA), and utilize theatrical story development, script writing, improvisation techniques, and onstage performance to help youth develop self-esteem, respect, and tolerance of others, as well as the communication, coping, and behavioral skills necessary to thrive.\n\u201c[Before,] I was really shy and quiet and I would just sit apart from everyone, but then I came here and started to make friends. This program has changed me a lot. I talk more; I\u2019m myself more. I\u2019m proud of that. I love this program.\u201d\nNEIGHBORHOOD VOICES PROGRAM\nStudents, parents, and elders come together for our community based, intergenerational playwriting and performance workshop.\nOur intergenerational Neighborhood Voices program is a 12-week intensive workshop that brings parents and adult community members together to create & perform their own modernized fable alongside their children and other youth from their community. The unique experience provides valuable mirroring & mentoring opportunities for the underserved youth who are the focus of our work.\n\u201cThe Unusual Suspects hasn\u2019t helped me only; it helps my family, and it helps my community as well. As a mother, I like my kids to be busy doing something good, instead of having them outside in the streets doing things that they\u2019re not supposed to be doing. This is a wonderful program for me and my community.\u201d\nVOICES FOR ARTS & SOCIAL THEATRE PROGRAM (VAST)\nIn multiple classrooms each year, hundreds of students participate in our in-class theatre workshops during their school day.\nVAST helps reduce barriers to classroom participation with universal, non-verbal & visual stories. This growing program adapts our successful after-school curriculum to a residency of in-class workshops where US teaching artists work alongside the classroom teacher to help groups of students collaborate to create and perform short theatre pieces through improvisation, rewriting, editing, and rehearsing.\n\u201cThe thing that I love most about this program \u2014 yes they develop public speaking skills, yes they have more confidence \u2014 is that it gives an outlet for children with challenging behavior. [One of the more challenging students] would just dive into the performances, and it helped me [as her teacher] create a different relationship with her, so on the days when we didn\u2019t have VAST I could go back to that connection with her. It has allowed her to be able to stay in class and not be sent out and to participate more fully in her education with me.\u201d\nTHEATRE AND CULTURE ACCESS PROGRAM (TCAP)\nMultiple times a year, we make it possible for low-income, underserved youth and adults to experience professional theatre together.\nOur Theatre and Culture Access Program connects those who might not otherwise have access to professional theatre to some of the most impacting and enriching live performances Los Angeles has to offer. Each outing brings together an inter-generational mix of past and present Unusual Suspects students and families to experience professional theatre together, often for the first time. In addition to the show, our staff leads workshops before and after the performance to foster an active experience for all!\n\u201cThis is the first play that I have been to. It\u2019s the second play for my son. It\u2019s great because we get to be together.\u201d\nVOICES FROM INSIDE PROGRAM (VIP)\nIn juvenile probation facilities, we provide a positive, safe environment where incarcerated youth can learn to trust others, develop self-respect, and explore non-violent solutions to conflict.\nOur newly-refined VOICES FROM INSIDE PROGRAM is an outgrowth of our 20+ years of experience working with incarcerated and system-engaged youth and our ongoing collaboration with the Arts for Incarcerated Youth Network, of which we are a founding member. Designed to augment L.A. County Probation\u2019s innovative new \u201cL.A. Model\u201d for juvenile justice reform, this innovative program combines in-class and after-school theatre-arts education with trauma-informed healing practices to provide standards-based theatre-arts education and mentoring to the county\u2019s most hardened minors.\n\u201cI\u2019d never done anything like this before. I like that that you could see where I was coming from and that I could show people who I am. I\u2019d never done that before.\u201d\nPARENT PRACTICA\nParent PrACTica workshops, one-off sessions or short series, are designed to strengthen the connections between parents and their children through the fundamentals of theatre. Our teaching artists lead parents through fun and creative ensemble building games that are designed to teach emotional expression, non-verbal behaviors and gestures, listening skills, eye contact, conversation and social skills. Familial connections can mean the difference between a confident child and an insecure one and are a strong predictor of a child\u2019s success in many areas of life. Parent PrACTica workshops creatively foster those connections through play.\nArtwork by a San Fernando High School participant\nArtwork by a Camp Gonzalez participant\nArtwork by a GRYD youth participant",

        "title": "Newly Discovered Rainforest Quietly Thriving Atop Mount Lico in The Heart of Africa\u2026",
        "raw_content": "Can you believe there\u2019s a place on this big beautiful earth that has not been trampled by humans? AND it\u2019s a rainforest! Leave it to Google Earth to find a hidden gem (some are calling it the Google Rainforest).\nAtop Mount Lico in northern Mozambique is a site that few have had the pleasure of seeing \u2013 a hidden rainforest, protected by a steep circle of rock. Though the mountain was known to locals, the forest itself remained a secret until six years ago, when Julian Bayliss spotted it on satellite imagery. It wasn\u2019t until last year, however, that he revealed his discovery, at the Oxford Nature Festival.\nWe recently visited the 700 metre-high mountaintop rainforest in an expedition organised by Bayliss, in collaboration with Mozambique\u2019s Natural History Museum and National Herbarium. As far as anyone knew (including the locals), we would be the first people to set foot there (spoiler: we weren\u2019t).\nSince the rainforest\u2019s discovery, Lico has received worldwide attention. That it captured the public\u2019s imagination speaks volumes about how rare such places are. Humans are nothing if not adventurous, pushing our range boundaries like no other species can. But when almost every corner of the planet now shows signs of human activity, how do conservation scientists justify visiting and publicising these last bastions of untrodden nature?\nFrom our perspective, the answer depends on what expeditions like this can teach us about the natural world, our place in it, and how to shepherd the wildest of places through the Anthropocene. Standing back and crossing our collective fingers is not always a winning strategy. This expedition formed part of a long-standing research programme into these mountains, that aims to provide evidence to legally protect Mozambique\u2019s mountain forests. Currently none of northern Mozambique\u2019s mountains are formally protected, either nationally or internationally. Finding new species is one way to highlight the importance of such sites and justify their protection.\nAs well as exploring Mount Lico, the expedition was the first to undertake a biological survey of nearby Mount Socone. Every bit as majestic and species rich as the iconic Lico, Socone highlights the threat faced by many forests in Mozambique, Africa and elsewhere. Globally, one football pitch worth of forest is lost every second, driving countless species to extinction. The removal of trees from mountain slopes also leads to soil erosion, flooding in the wet season and water shortages in the dry season.\nOn our first day on Socone, we set out to locate the middle of the forest using a satellite image and GPS. However, the difference between what this image was telling us and what we could see was vast. As we walked towards what the image showed as the heart of lush rainforest, we could see the warm glow of the African sun. Soon enough, we emerged from beneath the canopy and into newly established farmland. Without the protective cover of the forest, heavy rains will pound these exposed mountain soils, fresh cuts will need to be made, and so the cycle repeats. Media attention on neighbouring Lico, and the new species descriptions coming out of both sites, help to bring these conservation and livelihood issues to the world\u2019s attention.\nOur brief footsteps on Lico will soon be overgrown, and the plants and animals that live there will continue to be protected by the same towering cliffs (more than 125 metres high) that have saved them up to now (without the help of world-class climbers, our expedition would not have been possible).\nBut the impact of people goes far beyond where we have actually managed to set foot. Since the industrial revolution, humans have increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to levels higher than at any time in the past 400,000 years, increasing temperatures and changing weather patterns. Despite being situated on a fortress of rock, Lico\u2019s forest is vulnerable to climate change, like every other ecosystem on the planet.\nThe contrast between protection from direct human activities but exposure to climate change means that Lico has a lot to teach us. Most forests experience both of these processes simultaneously, and so it is difficult to unravel their relative and interacting impacts. Through the data collected on Lico, Socone and other forests worldwide, we gain a greater understanding of how human disturbance affects the ability of forests to respond to environmental change.\nLico is a rare data point on this map: millennia of climate change and ecological response, played out in the absence of direct human disturbance. Reconstructing this history meant digging a two metre-deep pit in the forest, so that we could sample the layers of soil in the order that they accumulated. We tried to minimise any lasting effects on the forest (the hole was filled and topsoil replaced) but nonetheless, reasonable objections can be made against our disturbing this previously pristine site.\nWhat we gained were a series of time capsules: each little tin of soil contains information on the plants that grew, the fires that burned and the water that flowed, data that will be shared in open access repositories, allowing people worldwide to investigate this unique site without the need for further disturbance. What we learn from Lico will help the world understand how forests might be affected by future changes in climate.\nSo were we really the first humans on Lico? Well, not quite. To everyone\u2019s surprise, we found ancient pots, ceremonially placed near the source of a stream that flows to a waterfall down the side of the cliff. Were these placed there during a time of drought, as the waterfall ran dry and the crops failed?\nArchaeologists and climate scientists are investigating. Given the pots pre-date local knowledge, the incredible inaccessibility and lack of any other signs of human activity, Lico\u2019s forest remains one of the least disturbed on the planet. One thing\u2019s for sure though \u2013 humans really do get everywhere.\nSimon Willcock, Lecturer in Environmental Geography, Bangor University and Phil Platts, Research Fellow, University of York\namazone: yz yseult pays tribute to the female warrior of the 1890\u2019s on the streets of senegal\nexplor.a: check out these underrated, beautiful and inexpensive ski resorts..\nPrevious articleDJ Benji B + Conductor Grant Windsor + 16-Piece String Ensemble equals Eargasms..\nNext articleFall Festivals that prove Philly is a foodies paradise..\nvisually spk.n: random love",

A dog barked, joined by another. He waded out into the freezing, dark water. Behind him raised voices, becoming excited, torch lights dancing. The sound of a cartridge being jacked into place.

One afternoon he unwittingly gets caught in a funeral cortege and then trapped in the cemetery grounds for the strangest service he\u2019s witnessed \u2013 a John Doe buried by clergymen from 12 different faiths. A homicide detective, George Zarr, is lurking outside the gates. Later that day he meets the millionaire John Sandmark who wants him to dig up enough dirt to get rid of the smooth talking, Jerry Marlin, who\u2019s engaged to marry his wayward step-daughter, Leona. Leona likes to party and gamble, and as Pine seeks information on her suitor he soon finds himself tangling with a Chicago gangster, D\u2019Allemand. When Pine is hired to deliver a $25,000 dollars ransom in a business kidnapping he\u2019s attacked and the money taken, and whilst trailing Leona, Marlin is shot dead. Whatever is going on, it\u2019s a complex puzzle, and someone is either trying to frame Pine or kill him. Neither of which he takes too kindly to.\nHalo in Blood was published in 1946 and written by Howard Browne using the pen name John Evans. He published five novels, wrote over 125 scripts for such TV shows such as Maverick, Mission Impossible, The Fugitive, and Columbo, and also wrote screenplays for several films, including Capone, The St. Valentine's Day Massacre and Portrait of a Mobster. Halo in Blood was his first novel, though he\u2019d spent the previous five years editing a pulp magazine and writing short stories. When Howard met Raymond Chandler he is reputed to have told him that he\u2019d been making a living off of him for several years (and John Evans is a PI character in a Chandler short story). And there is no doubt that Halo in Blood, and Paul Pine (like a sizable chunk of PI stories), is derivative of Chandler and Philip Marlowe. In Browne\u2019s case it works and Halo in Blood is an engagingly written, tightly plotted, entertaining slice of hardboiled crime fiction. The story does become overly complex, with a few too many twists, and the characters do feel a bit stock-like, but nonetheless it is a decent read.\nLabels: Halo in Blood, Howard Browne, Review\nHere is my entry for Donna's Ramones short story challenge. I should probably let it gestate for a couple of days rather than posting the first draft, but what the heck. The Ramones were pretty rough and ready, just like this story. The song can be accessed below if you want to sing along.\nJohnny had reached his limit. He stormed from the kitchen, defeated and fuming. Her parting words screeched at his back: \u2018Fuck you, Johnny. My mother was right \u2013 I could have done better than you!\u2019\nMary Wallis wrecked his head. There was no two ways about it. Arguing with her was a complete mind fuck. It didn\u2019t matter what he said, she\u2019d found some way of twisting his words, making everything seem like it was his fault. She dug out remnants of conversations from years ago and spliced them with recent events to create a fictive world in which every misfortune that been bestowed on them was a result of his ineptitude, fecklessness, and lack of ambition.\nHe stabbed at the stereo, a choppy guitar and crash symbols blasting from the speakers.

It's gonna be the death of we.\u2019\n\u2018For fuck\u2019s sake, Johnny, turn it down,\u2019 Mary yelled from the doorway.\nHe carried on singing: \u2018If we don't stop this crazy carrying on, it's gonna be the death of you.\u2019\nMary twisted the dial, the song dropping dozens of decibels. \u2018Jesus, Johnny, when are you going to grow-up? Is that what life is to you, a fucking Ramones song?\u2019\nJohnny snorted a laugh. \u2018There was a time when fucking to Ramones songs was all we did.\u2019\n\u2018Yeah, when we were like sixteen. If you lasted as long as one song it was a fucking miracle. Now you\u2019re so impotent, it\u2019ll take you a whole album just to get it up.\u2019\n\u2018Not a surprise, you looking like that,\u2019 he said, defensively, still playing air guitar. \u2018A blind man would find it difficult to get aroused for you these days.\u2019\n\u2018At least he might give me a good time.

He was a singer, not you\u2019re fucking brother or something.\u2019\n\u2018He was a god!\u2019\n\u2018He sang in the fucking Ramones!\u2019\n\u2018Yeah, exactly.\u2019\n\u2018For god\u2019s sake, Johnny we only saw them twice. Anybody would think you were married to them, not me.\u2019\n\u2018More\u2019s the pity. I seem to remember you thought they were the dog\u2019s bollocks. You spent half the night flashing them your tits.\u2019\n\u2018I did not! We were jumping up and down.\u2019\n\u2018Jesus, Mary, what the fuck has happened to us? We used to have a fucking great time. Always having a bit of craic. A few drinks, concerts, nightclubs. Now all we do is fucking argue.\u2019\n\u2018Yes, you do. You want more than this.\u2019 He gestured at the tired looking room, old furniture and crappy knick-knacks. \u2018More than I can give you. You want a new life.\u2019\nMary shrugged. \u2018I don\u2019t know what I want. I just know it has to be better than curry and chips, cheap lager and the Ramones every Friday night.\u2019\n\u2018We can get Chinese instead if you want,\u2019 Johnny said factitiously.\n\u2018I need more than the memory of the Ramones, Johnny. Things we did twenty five years ago. We can\u2019t live on memories.\u2019\n\u2018We\u2019re still together aren\u2019t we? Been together half a life time.\u2019\n\u2018And we\u2019re still locked in the past. We\u2019ve gone nowhere. Absolutely nowhere. I need to feel alive again. Like I did when I was twenty.\u2019\n\u2018We can\u2019t turn the clock back. This is it.\u2019\n\u2018Well, it isn\u2019t enough. When was the last time we went on holiday? I mean a proper holiday. With a beach. Some sun?\u2019\nJohnny shrugged. \u2018We can\u2019t afford it, you know that.\u2019\n\u2018I\u2019m going out,\u2019 she announced flatly, heading for the door. \u2018I ... this can\u2019t go on, Johnny. Things have to change.\u2019\nShe closed the door behind her. They\u2019d been together since school. Now they were barely civil to each other. Whatever magic had been there had been revealed as the cheap trick it had always been.\nIn the living room the volume jumped again. He\u2019d skipped back to the same track, singing along in his best American drawl: \u2018Stop this crazy carrying on, it's gonna be the death of me. It's gonna be the end you see.

Philip Kerr, If the Dead Rise Not\nA bit of a blizzard week tied up with commenting on the housing crisis. Tuesday gave a talk to the country's county engineers. Wednesday gave a talk to business students in Dublin. Thursday and Friday I was in Northern Ireland, but spent a lot of time on the phone talking to journalists and doing some radio interviews about the new Dept of Environment's survey of unfinished estates. They announced that there are 2,846 unfinished estates in Ireland consisting of 121,248 units, 43,053 of which are vacant or underconstruction. This is not the full extent of the level of oversupply, but rather the overhang of brand new, unsold houses in estates (doesn't include one-off housing or vacant secondhand housing). In a country the size of Ireland, 2,846 unfinished estates that are have little to no finance to be completed, and have issues of health and safety, security, anti-social behaviour, bonds, building control and planning permission compliance, is a sizable problem to deal with. See posts on Ireland After NAMA for more info. All of this meant I neglected this blog and my reading, missing my Forgotten Friday slot for 'Halo in Blood' by Howard Browne (writing as John Evans). I finished that yesterday morning. In the afternoon I bought 'Operation Napoleon' by Arnaldur Indridason and finished it this morning. Now onto Dave Zeltserman's 'Small Crimes' (and my MIT proofs).\nNew 'Map Reader' cover design\nWe need to get past the denial phase - tax breaks did fuel the housing bubble\nKey housing statistics concerning vacancy, oversupply, unfinished and ghost estates\nReview of Wasters by Shane Ross and Nick Webb\nReview of Wasters by Shane Ross and Nick Webb (2010, Penguin)\nWasters is an account of the misuses of state funds, poor governance, organisational failure and cronyism in public bodies in Ireland. It includes chapters on the growth of semi-state agencies, cronyism and political patronage, ministerial expenses, FAS, HSE, CIE, DDDA/NAMA, PPPs and other \u2018bad deals\u2019, and social partnership. It\u2019s often fascinating, but suffers from a sense that one is reading little more than a name and shame list. In fact, there is very little narrative beyond an indignant list of issues and their cost to the taxpayer, and the ordering of chapters seems to be somewhat random (in fact, they could be re-ordered and it would have little effect on the read). At one level this is fine, and provides a useful service, but at another it is a significant shortcoming.\nThere is very little attempt to explain why the present state of affairs exists beyond a general lack of appropriate governance and oversight, cronyism, corruption and propensity to establish semi-state agencies and public entities. Analysis is left purely at the level of the implicit and empirical. I was not expecting a detailed academic explanation of the operations of the Irish state, its political economy, and its underlying ideology \u2013 this is after all a general readership book \u2013 but I did expect some attempt to make sense of the situation (as with Fintan O\u2019Toole\u2019s Ship of Fools, for example) and to provide a nuanced portrait of the public sector. In Ross and Webb\u2019s account all public bodies exhibit the same poor governance, and the same levels of waste and inefficiency. This is clearly not the case. There are plenty of examples of bodies that do a very good job on limited resources, where senior management have a sense of responsibility and desire to deliver quality services, and do not treat the entity as their own personal piggy bank and jolly expense account. They also display the same level indignity for all expenses, regardless of whether they are legitimate or not, and the scale of expenditure, with scorn poured equally on a couple of euro for a coffee as for millions of euros on inappropriate property ventures where there are clear conflicts of interest.\nMore problematic in many ways is that the book makes no suggestions as to what should happen to address the various problems that they identify. It is simply not enough to say \u2018here is the problem and its scale, and it should be dealt with\u2019, as if there is one, obvious solution. In my view Ross and Webb needed to conclude, not with a sideswipe at the Office of the Comptroller & Auditor General, but rather with a path forward that they would like to see implemented to address the various inter-related issues.\nOverall, Wasters fulfils a role in setting out the governance and accountability issues that affect a number of public bodies in Ireland. Some of the examples will make your blood boil and Ross and Webb provide a great service by exposing some of the excesses and waste. As a read, however, it really lacks a narrative that seeks to explain why such a system exists and how it should be changed. In that sense it is a missed opportunity. For a longer review, see here.\nLabels: Nick Webb, Review, Shane Ross, Wasters\nI'm going to post a review of Wasters tomorrow, a book about the mis-management and mis-use of public monies. I'm all for proper auditing and accounting and I get annoyed when I see the flagrant abuse of funds. That said, oversight can often go too far and add significant costs to an organisation's operation. Today we spent time trying to deal with a very small accountancy error (not committed by us). 22 cent to be precise. 22 cent out in an account of half a million is pretty good, I think. The funding agency has asked for the accounts to be re-prepared, re-run through an audit, and to be signed off by four sets of relevant offices to account for the missing 22 cent. All this work costs significantly more than 22 cent. Based on my base salary, I've already spent more than 22 cent's time on this. This is just bureaucracy gone mad. I'm not sure where the cut off is 2.20, 22.20, 220, 2200, but above .22!\nThanks for your comments re. the first draft designs of The Map Reader. We've now been sent a revised version.

It wasn\u2019t her first choice of job, but the options in a small, rough and tumble mining town in the middle of the Australian outback are limited. She thought she\u2019d be working for Tom Gillivray, but he\u2019s worse for wear after being attacked with a zimmerframe wielded by an elderly tear-about. Instead, in her first day at work gets off to a rocky start with the pissy, dour Bruce Cockburn, her new boss, a roadside death, and the murder of an increasingly disorientated and disillusioned geologist and prospector. Treated like a dogsbody who doesn\u2019t belong, she finds herself bristling with indignation. And once she realises who the dead man is, having spent half her life being dragged round the mines by her white father, and who has been accused of murdering him, she can\u2019t help but stick her nose in where it\u2019s not wanted and do her own digging around. Cockburn sees an open and shut case; Emily sees lazy policing and a potentially innocent man heading for trial. If this is how justice works, then she figures she can use and abuse the badge until they either take it off her or she discovers the truth.\nDiamond Dove, Adrian Hyland\u2019s first Emily Tempest novel, was one of my books of 2009 (review here). It was with great anticipation then that I waited for Gunshot Road. I even pre-ordered a copy, only to be let down by the usually reliable Amazon. I eventually got my hands on a copy a couple of weeks ago and it moved straight to the top of the TBR pile. The novel, thankfully, lived up to my expectations. In Emily Tempest, Hyland has created a wonderfully engaging character; half-aboriginal, half-white, she oscillates between two worlds. Quick witted, head-strong, caring and obstinate, she ploughs her own unique path through life. In fact, the whole book is populated with well penned characters that have depth and inner life. Hyland does a great job of immersing the reader in the small, fractious communities and strained social relations of outback Australia, creating a vivid sense of place. And he has wonderful, expressive turn of phrase and lively and witty prose. The storytelling, as a whole is excellent, the plotting and narrative strong, particularly in the first half of the book. The second half does suffer a little from an attempt to build tension through a series of multiple pressure points, and increasingly shorter chapters. That said, this really is a great read and one I\u2019ve already recommended to friends. It\u2019s definitely going to be near the top of my best reads of 2010 and I\u2019ll be pre-ordering the next book in the series \u2013 note to author and publisher, please get a move on!\nLabels: Adrian Hyland, Gunshot Road, Review\nNobody it seems is that happy with the working title of 'Digging for Gold' for the next McEvoy novel. It kind of works as a placeholder, but I think I need something else. Unfortunately, I seem to be having a bit of a mental block devising an alternative title. Perhaps it's not that important, but it's bugging me. So far the book has had these working titles:\n'In the Bog' (in reference to where it takes place - part of the boglands of the country and a play on where the country is heading)\n'Land and Honey' (a play on land of milk and honey, and land and gold digging through sexual charms)\n'Digging for Gold' (in reference to the two main murders - both women were gold diggers, using their charms to leverage what they wanted - and the Irish property boom and its pursuit of wealth that led to the landscape being scarred with unneeded development).\nThese are my present alternatives:\n'All That Glitters' (as in 'all that glitters is not gold', in reference to the pursuit of wealth through reckless means does not always end well)\n'Ghostland' (refers both to the continued 'presence' of the two dead women, and the legacy of ghost estates across the landscape as a result of the fallout from the property crash in which one of them played an important local role).\nI should probably point out that the two women were murdered in different eras. One in the early 1960s when rural Ireland was very conservative and repressive; the other in the here and now as Ireland transitions from boom to bust. In that sense the book does kind of deal with the overlapping legacies of three eras (conservative Ireland, permissive and booming Ireland, sobering aftershock of the collapse). The theme of socio-sexual relations runs throughout the story as well given the gold digging elements and McEvoy's personal life becoming more complex.\nYou can hopefully see the kinds of ideas I'm trying to play around with in the story and the various working titles - gold digging, property development, boom-and-bust, haunting, etc. and the present version of the backcover blurb is below.\nWhat do people think of these titles? Can you come up with a better alternative? I am leaning towards one, but I'd really welcome some suggestions.\nThe working backcover blurb:\n\"The Irish economy has imploded leaving the country littered with shattered dreams and the ghostly remains of the Celtic Tiger property boom. Whilst dealing with the fallout, Detective Superintendent Colm McEvoy has got himself ensnared in a tangle of work and women. Marianne Haas, a Dutch national and estate agent, is found hanging in a client\u2019s house. Nearby, the remains of a young woman are discovered in a bog. Along the Irish border, rivalry between fuel smuggling gangs has led to murder and collaboration with a fiery superintendent. None of the three cases are straightforward and are little helped by the attention of an ambitious journalist and the resistance of local officers to outside help. To add spice to the mix, McEvoy finds himself flirting with one of his subordinates whilst relying on his lodger to look after his increasingly distant daughter. Undertaking one case is stressful, managing three and an ever more complex personal life is a potential nightmare. Rural Ireland is proving to be anything but an idyll.\"\nReview of Needle in a Haystack by Ernesto Mallo (Bitter Lemon Press, 2010; Spanish 2006)\nIt\u2019s the late 1970s and Argentina is governed by a military junta, casting a shadow of fear across the country. Amancio is a playboy from a rich, landed family, married to the beautiful Lara, who demands the finest things in life. Having exhausted his fortune he has taken to loaning money from various creditors, finally turning to the loan shark, Biterman, an Auschwitz survivor. When Biterman calls in the debt, Amancio decides to take matters into his own hands to save the family estate, turning to his friend, Major Giribaldi, who specialises in making people disappear. Superintendent Lascano is a homicide detective mourning his wife recently killed in a car accident. On a raid of a brothel he discovers Eva, a left-wing dissident, hiding from another kind of raid a few doors away. Eva is the spitting image of Lascano\u2019s dead wife and he takes her in, a strange bond forming between them. Despite the risk, Lascona seeks new papers for Eva, but then he discovers three dead bodies dumped on the roadside outside of the city. Two are clearly junta assassinations, but the third seems more opportunistic. It doesn\u2019t take long for Lascano to discover the truth, putting him on a dangerous collision course with the military authorities.\nNeedle in a Haystack is a noir crime novel blended with social/political observation. The story is not driven by a \u2018whodunnit\u2019 or \u2018howdunnit\u2019 narrative, as it is fairly clear from the start who killed the third body and why. Rather the hook is who will win out between Lascano and Giribaldi; whether justice will prevail. I\u2019ll avoid a spoiler, but needless to say the book has one of the best endings to a novel I\u2019ve read so far this year. Throughout the characterisation and social relations are keenly portrayed and the prose is well crafted. The plot is relatively straightforward, but that doesn\u2019t detract from the reading experience. There were one or two things that didn\u2019t quite ring right, such as Biterman\u2019s backstory, but otherwise one felt immersed in the claustrophobic life of Buenos Aires in the late 1970s. Overall, an informative and entertaining slice of noir, lifted by a great ending.\nLabels: Ernesto Mallo, Needle in a Haystack, Review\nI've started to read Wasters by Shane Ross and Nick Webb about the wastage and mis-management in some Irish semi-state agencies. A fairly depressing read about political cronyism and jollies at the citizen's expense. One area of the Irish public sector that definitely does need reform, and unfortunately tarnishes all elements.\nIrish bank collapse thwarts Scottish independence?\nNational spatial strategy update\nReview of The Coroner's Lunch by Colin Coterill\nThe bust from a bird's eye view\nIs giving houses away the answer?\nI took a day off work today to try use a long weekend in order to push Digging for Gold towards submission. Of course, I still spent a couple of hours on email keeping the show on the road, but that's beside the point. Two of my beta readers suggested edits to the end of the novel, so I thought I'd have a go at tweaking. The problem is that one parent edit, then leads to a cascade of children edits to ensure continuity. And make more than one parent edit and all of sudden you're trying to deal with families of edits. Families that co-exist. It can rapidly get complicated and messy. And the danger is that you're left with parentless children as you delete and replace sections. Hopefully it's improving things. We'll see. Better get back to it, before I lose all my latest genealogical thread.\nI need to find some way to slow down or extend the reading experience of enjoyable novels. The problem is the more enjoyable the story, the faster I tear through it. I'm only fifty odd pages from the end of Gunshot Road by Adrian Hyland. I need to know what happens, but I don't want to finish the book. The dreaded reader's paradox - how to devour and savour at the same time. Now if the next book in the series was already out, I'd have a (temporary) solution. I suspect the only solution will be to pick up the next book on the TBR pile and hope for the same reading pleasure. That or someone needs to share with me their top tips for altering the space-time physics of reading. Any takers?\nReview of The Coroner\u2019s Lunch by Colin Cotterill (Quercus, 2004)\nDr Siri Paiboun has spent most of his life fighting for the communist cause in Laos. Having gained power he feels it\u2019s time for him to retire and let the next generation get on with running the country. Instead, he\u2019s been appointed as the state coroner at the age of seventy two. Dealing with dead bodies is not the same as looking after healthy ones and he finds he\u2019s has to learn a whole new skill set from an ancient French textbook in an environment lacking in facilities and equipment. Thankfully the post comes with Mr Geung, the mortuary assistant, and Nurse Dtui, who at least have an institutional knowledge. Rather than simply diagnose the cause of death, Siri feels drawn to investigate the reason, especially when it\u2019s made abundantly clear he should forget such ideas. And when the wife of a party leader arrives on his slab and he suspects foul play he inevitably can\u2019t help but put his nose in where it\u2019s not wanted. Soon after, he is dealing with three Vietnamese soldiers and an international crisis is impending and he has unwittingly put himself in the firing line.\nIt\u2019s quite difficult to pigeonhole The Coroner\u2019s Lunch, other than to say it\u2019s a crime novel set in Laos in 1976. It\u2019s too political to be a cozy, though it does have leanings that way; it has too much humour and comic charm for a noir or hardboiled; and it\u2019s more a cultural commentary than a police procedural. It\u2019s also very good. Cotterill\u2019s skill is manifold: the story being well paced and plotted, with a good balance between show and tell, giving enough but not too much back story, and it being peopled by a wonderfully depicted set of characters. Indeed, Dr Siri, Nurse Dtui and Mr Geung are all interesting folk that one is delighted to spend time with, and the supporting cast feel like \u2018real\u2019 people rather than stock characters. There was, however, one thing that jarred a little, and it\u2019s taken a couple of days reflection to put my finger on it. The story has a dark side and should have had a lot of tension, and yet somehow it didn\u2019t. I think the comic charm and the warmth of Siri\u2019s personality seemed to dissipate any sense that he was in any real danger. In this sense, the story for all its twists and turns, lacked an edge. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable read and recommended.\nLabels: Colin Cotterill, Review, The Coroner's Lunch\nGoogle released Streetview Ireland this week. One of the side effects is that they have captured the full extent of the housing bust as their cars drove round every road in the country (see here). Having looked at the startling Google Earth images at this blog of the housing bust in the US, I thought I'd capture a few of estates in Ireland. Here are eight of them.\nA fairly eclectic month of reading. No one book really stood out as stellar, but it was fun to re-read Terry Pratchett's Guards! Guards!\nI finally got my hands on a copy of Adrian Hyland's Gunshot Road yesterday. At last! No surprise that it moves straight to the top of the TBR.\nPresently reading Ernesto Mallo's Needle in a Haystack. It has some very nice passages and observations, for example:\n\"Our other half is our great witness, the keeper of our imagination, the one who confirms that our world is real, concrete, palpable. Our other half is the key piece of our universe. You ask: did you see that? Did you hear that? What do you think about that? Our other half provides us with the only proof we ever get that what we sense is real.\"\nReview of Love, Sex and War by John Cosgrove\nTrading and investing in a smart economy\nIreland's Black Thursday, but are there any more black days to come\nChanges in NAMA rules for AIB and BoI\nIreland's external debt\nProduction in Building and Construction Index\nReview of South of no North by Charles Bukowski\nIt's been a terrible week in Ireland on the economic front. We all knew the bank bailout was going to be a disaster, but we didn't know how much of one. The government finally revealed what it thinks is the final estimate for the cost: \u20ac45 billion ($62bn or \u00a339bn) (with possibly \u20ac5bn more if the property market doesn't recover sufficiently over the next 10 years). That does not include the \u20ac40bn the National Assets Management Agency is spending buying property loans off of the banks. I've been posting about it on the other blog I contribute to, with an overview piece here.\nThe cost of one bank alone - Anglo Irish - will be a minimum of \u20ac29.3bn (and possibly \u20ac34bn), which the governor of the Central Bank has said we'll never see again. That's a big number and it's difficult to get into perspective. One way is to compare it to the country's tax intake of \u20ac33bn. Basically, we're going to spend an entire year's worth of tax bailing out one bank and not receive anything in return. And it's worse because we have to pay interest of \u20ac1.7 bn per annum on the money we've borrowed to bail out the bank. Another way is to standardise by the size of the economy. This quote from Bloomberg about Anglo Irish jumped out at me yesterday and put me in a cold sweat:\n\"Measured against the size of the economy, that\u2019s comparable to a $3 trillion bailout for a single U.S. bank.\" $3 trillion!\nWould U.S. tax payers have sanctioned a $3 trillion bailout of one bank? Would any other country have accepted this as meekly as we have?\n\u20ac29.3bn for one bank sounds like a massive amount. Put in the context of both the country's tax intake and relative to the size of the economy and you realise how mindboggling and frigthening the bail out is.\nA week we'll be paying for in a couple of generations time. God help us ...\nReview of South of No North by Charles Bukowski (Black Sparrow Press, 1972)\nA colleague lent me a copy of this collection of 27 short stories packed into 189 pages as an example of how to write in the short form. His view is that my short stories have too much dialogue and not enough prose, and in his opinion, Bukowski manages to be dialogue heavy whilst also having weighty, meaty prose that give substance to the stories. And on my reading, it\u2019s difficult to disagree with him. Bukowski\u2019s prose is indeed rich, whilst still maintaining a show rather than tell style, and there is much to admire in the writing. His short stories are often only a thousand words or so, but are vivid and engaging, and it\u2019s clear why Time magazine labelled him the \u2018laureate of American low life\u2019. And even though the stories in South of No North clearly relate to his own life, especially those focused on Henry Chinaski (his childhood acne, his chronic alcoholism, his endless succession of jobs, his movement between cheap rooming houses, his womanising, his experience of writing, his marriage to a Texan poet despite having never met, his time in hospital), they are also, it has to be said, quite troubling. Through his writing he comes across as a full-blown misogynist, with women acting purely as sexual objects. There are three ways to a woman\u2019s heart in Bukowski\u2019s writing \u2013 ply them with drink (preferably a fifth of whiskey), just walk right up to them and kiss them, or rape them. In all three cases they will instantly fall in love with you, dump (or kill) their present boyfriend, and leap in bed with you until they realise that you are the bastard that they always knew you were. Queue big argument, storm out, five minutes of feeling sorry for one\u2019s self, and then stealing the next woman to come along. That said, there is much to envy in Bukowski\u2019s writing prowess and prose. So, yes, his writing style and craft is something to work towards, and his noir sensibilities, but not, I feel, some of the stories and their worldview.\nLabels: Charles Bukowski, Review, South of No North",

        "raw_content": "How to Choose a Marketing Agency.\nThe best decision your business will thank you for is investing in advertisements. It is advisable to recruit a trained marketing agency to carry out the task. Your choice for an advertising agency will determine whether or not your business will attract more prospective customers. Thus, the recruiting process needs a lot of consideration to prevent unnecessary pitfalls. It is advisable to find out beforehand the kind advertisement is needed for the success of your venture. To note is that the kind of marketing done on start up business is not the same with an already running business and also the target group. Apart from just getting a business contract from you, the agent should be able listen to your ideas and advice you more on what the approach to take for successful outcome.\nFinding the best marketing agency is easy but it might be overwhelming and technical since the market is crowded with professionals and nonprofessionals. Thus, ensure that you get names of various advertising companies where you can cut down the names to a few potential ones. In addition, you can ask your business friends and acquaintances to give recommendation of the best marketing firms they have previously dealt with. Another factor to consider when choosing marketing professionals is the reputation they have build for themselves. The best way to find out about the reputation of a marketing firm is the word on the streets about its services, how well they communicate with clients and on related customer relations. The brand of marketing agency is an important factor to consider in finding more about how well the team is dedicated to work and the core values.\nThe price of advertisement is a vital aspect to consider in your search with today\u2019s challenging business environment in mind. However, it is not wise to look into the cost alone and ignore the quality of the services. A background search on the marketer is very essential in order to gather very helpful insight on the agency. The information you need can be obtained through surfing the internet and looking at the customer reviews.\nExperience is a key factor to put into consideration prior to hiring. You are more likely to be convinced of previous marketing success if they are well experienced in your kind of business and also in other fields. It is also important to check the period they have been in operation. Professionalism is an essential quality an agency should possess. Remember that note all marketing agents have degrees, some gain their knowledge through the internet. Regardless of whether they have class degree or not, agencies must execute their service professionally.",

        "raw_content": "Recent International Tax Case: Fundy Settlement v. Canada 2012\nIn Fundy Settlement v. Canada, 2012 SCC 14, [2012] 1 SCR 520, the taxpayer claims an exemption from tax pursuant to the tax treaty between Canada and Barbados. Appeal filed to the Supreme Court of Canada. The CRA takes the position that the applicable exemption does not apply since the Trust is a Canadian resident for income tax purpose.\nThe trust is indeed found to be a Canadian resident. The appeal is dismissed.\n\u201c[1] The Court \u2014 St. Michael Trust Corp. (\u201cSt. Michael\u201d) is the trustee of two trusts, the Fundy Settlement and the Summersby Settlement. The trusts were settled by an individual resident in St. Vincent in the Caribbean. The beneficiaries are residents of Canada. St. Michael is a corporation resident in Barbados.\n[2] When the trusts disposed of shares they owned in two Ontario corporations, the purchaser remitted some $152 million to the Minister of National Revenue as withholding tax on account of Canadian tax from capital gains realized by the trusts on the sale of the shares.\n[3] St. Michael sought return of the withheld amount based on an exemption from Canadian capital gains tax under the Agreement Between Canada and Barbados for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital, Can. T.S. 1980 No. 29 (incorporated into Canadian law by the Canada-Barbados Income Tax Agreement Act, 1980, S.C. 1980-81-82-83, c. 44, s. 25). Under the treaty, tax would only be payable in the country in which the seller was resident. St. Michael claimed that because it was resident in Barbados, the trusts were resident in Barbados. As a result, there would be no basis for withholding tax in Canada.\n[4] The Minister of National Revenue was of the opinion that the trusts were resident in Canada and that the withheld tax was properly payable.\n[5] St. Michael\u2019s appeal from the Minister\u2019s reassessment to the Tax Court of Canada was unsuccessful 2009 TCC 450 (CanLII), (2009 TCC 450, [2010] 2 C.T.C. 2346), as was its further appeal to the Federal Court of Appeal 2010 FCA 309 (CanLII), (2010 FCA 309, 411 N.R. 125). It was granted leave to appeal to this Court.\n[6] The issue in this case is the residence of the Fundy and Summersby trusts. St. Michael says the residence of the trusts is the residence of the trustee, which is Barbados. The Minister says the trusts are resident in Canada because the central management and control of the trusts was carried out by the main beneficiaries, who were resident in Canada. On the facts as determined by Woods J., the Tax Court judge, St. Michael is resident in Barbados while the central management and control of the trusts was carried out in Canada by the main beneficiaries of the trusts.\u201d\n\u201c[16] We [the SCC] agree with Woods J. that adopting a similar test for trusts and corporations promotes \u201cthe important principles of consistency, predictability and fairness in the application of tax law\u201d (para. 160). As she noted, if there were to be a totally different test for trusts than for corporations, there should be good reasons for it. No such reasons were offered here.\u201d\nFundy Settlement v.

The $1 million and all would\u2019ve been nice, but I would take these three over $1 million any day.\u201d\n\u201cI am just really proud of the way I played,\u201d Lewis continued.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t have my best stuff all week. Even today just had to kind of grind it out and make a few putts there at the end, which I did. But it\u2019s just amazing. I just feel like a ton of weight has just been lifted off my shoulders.\u201d\nLewis held off a late-season charge from Rolex Rankings No. 1 Inbee Park to claim the three awards.\nShe entered the recent season-ending CME Group Tour Championship leading Park by just three points in the Rolex Player of the Year race and by less than a tenth of a stroke in the hunt for the Vare Trophy, which is awarded to the player with the lowest scoring average on Tour.\nLewis wrapped up the award with a solid CME Group Tour Championship where she finished in a tie for ninth at 4-under par.\nThe No. 2 player currently in the Rolex Women\u2019s World Golf Rankings, Lewis had an impressive 2014 season with three victories (North Texas LPGA Shootout, ShopRite LPGA Classic presented by P&G and Walmart NW Arkansas Championship) and 15 additional top-10 finishes.\nShe ended the season leading the Tour in three statistical categories including birdies, rounds in the 60s and rounds under par.\n\u201cI have some goals.

        "raw_content": "What is it within a man that will motivate him to stand his ground when he knows that doing so will cost him everything, including his life? The life and death of Wallace Hartley provides a stirring example of a man who, rather than seeking to save his own life, acted in a manner that demonstrated courage, fidelity, and sacrifice for the sake of others.\nWallace Hartley was not well known prior to his death. His posthumous fame came because he was the leader of the band that played as the Titanic sank. The story of Wallace Hartley and the band is told in the recent book \"The Band that Played On: The Extraordinary Story of the 8 Musicians Who Went Down with the Titanic\u201d by Steve Turner. Those who survived the disaster that occurred on April 15, 1912, reported hearing music as they were lowered in the lifeboats. Launching out on the placid icy sea that night, the survivors looked back to see the massive steel silhouette of the ship slide under the surface of the water. Many reported that as the ship began to be engulfed by water, they heard the sounds of the hymn, \u201cNearer, My God, To Thee\u201d. The last survivors to leave the ship reported that the band, led by Wallace Hartley, played up to the last possible moment. These brave men never once tried to leave the ship or to save their own lives. They played in order to give peace and to bring a little calm to a terror-filled situation. Some survivors reported that hearing the music alleviated some of their anxiety.\nThe band was under no obligation to play as the ship sank. The men had every right to seek safety. The band was not under the authority of Capt. Edward Smith because they were not considered employees of the White Star Lines. Therefore, he could not order them to stay at their stations and play. It is unlikely that Captain Smith even asked the men to play. So why did they do it? The answer is found in the leader of the band: Wallace Hartley.\nHartley was known as a man of Christian character. He was born and raised in Colne, England. His father was the Sunday School Superintendent at Bethel Independent Methodist Chapel, and it was at this church that Wallace became a Christian. He was active in the church and introduced the hymn \u201cNearer, My God, To Thee\u201d to his home congregation. His faith was the foundation of the fortitude he displayed the fateful night the Titanic sunk. Crisis reveals character, and character is forged in the daily routine of life. Prior to the sinking, Wallace lived what we would consider a very normal life. But in the ordinary moments of life, Wallace was being prepared for an extraordinary moment, a moment that would cause him to become a model of bravery to coming generations.\nWhat are we to take from this? We should not despise the days of small things because it is in the small daily activities that God is shaping and molding us. Faithfulness in the small things will lead to faithfulness in the larger things of life. The daily routine of life can become drudgery, yet that same routine is also a proving ground that readies our character for the day of crisis. We do not know when crisis will come. Our task is to be faithful every day so that we are becoming the men and women God desires us to be. Crisis reveals our character, and character is forged in the daily routine of life.\nIt is believed that Wallace led the band in playing \u201cNearer, My God, to Thee\u201d as the final number that led them into eternity. Wallace had made statements and left letters to the effect that if he knew he were facing death, then he would play \u201cNearer, My God, to Thee.\u201d His love for this hymn was well known. At the time of his death, Wallace was playing the hymn he dearly loved.\nWhen I finished reading the inspiring story of the band that played on, I remembered the words written by the apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 16:13, \u201cBe watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.\u201d The strength to stand firm is found in the daily habits cultivated in the regular routine of life. A life lived for Christ by cultivating daily the spiritual disciplines will bring us closer to God and give us strength for each day. As we move into a new school year and begin the routines of packing lunches and homework, be sure to make the time to cultivate the disciplines that lead to godliness and growth in the Lord. Those routines will bring us nearer to God.",

Well, I can\u2019t blame you, there are many types of exercise balls you can find out there. And even if they seem to look the same, they sometimes go by different names.\nMedicine ball (med ball) is a weighted ball that can be held to do different exercises. Though it comes in a variety of sizes, the most commonly used is as approximately as big as a basketball; and weight ranging from one to fifty pounds; mostly covered in vinyl or leather.\nYou may think that medicine ball is new to the fitness world, but it has actually been around longer than you think. In fact, it is considered the oldest exercise equipment. The Greek physician, Hippocrates is said to have stuffed animal skins for patients to toss for medicinal purposes. It is also known to be used by Persian Wrestlers in training, thousands of years ago.\nBenefits of Using a Medicine Ball\nThe Medicine ball is versatile; often used for rehabilitation and strength training. Often used by athletes as it can strengthen many parts of your body. So depending on the way you use it, you can offer a full body workout.\nAlthough the medicine ball isn\u2019t widely used, it is a good alternative to other exercise equipment because it puts less pressure on your wrist. And it\u2019s also easier to carry around and more convenient than heavier weights.\nSo whether you are into core training or just want to lose weight, you might want to try these medicine ball exercises!\nSide Touch\n3 sets; 12-15 reps\nFor more workout like this, try our: 21-Day Body Blast Challenge!",

        "raw_content": "Location: Bennington College, Bennington, VT\nProgram: Symposium Center and Residences\nAwards: 2013 AIANY Architecture Merit Award, 2012 Building Stone Institute Tucker Award\nThe Center for the Advancement of Public Action at Bennington College is a gathering place for students, faculty, and professionals on the front lines of public action to confront what it means to make lasting change on the world\u2019s most pressing problems.\nThe site has views of the Green Mountains to the east, the meadow to the north, the pond and wetlands to the west, and the Visual and Performing Arts Center to the south. Rather than one large structure, the program is divided into three buildings\u2014the symposium, residences for fellows and visitors, and a flexible, multi-use space known as the Lens. The buildings form a central courtyard, encouraging a spirit of collaboration and connection, which is reinforced by walkways between the buildings that link to existing campus circulation.\nAll three buildings are constructed of steel with block infill and clad in three-inch thick Vermont marble panels. The blocks were found in Rutland, Vermont only fifty miles from Bennington. The blocks come from a stone yard that had purchased marble from several different quarries that had gone out of business. Each marble fa\u00e7ade was laid out on the floor of a warehouse prior to installation to insure that the varied colors and sizes were distributed in a desirable pattern. The use of this marble emphasizes our respect for local fabric and material of the northeast.\nThe symposium building holds the assembly room, which features a stepped floor and curved seating to support dialogue and deliberation. Classrooms designed for collaborative learning, offices, meetings rooms, a faculty lounge, and student common areas support the functions of the building. A glass-walled courtyard is open to the sky, but an eave provides shelter from the elements. The residence building provides living accommodations for fellows and visiting practitioners. Three live/work apartments are similar but unique in scale, layout, views, and furnishings. The smallest building, the Lens, is a place for mediation, contemplation, performance, and debate. An operable hand crank rolls back a portal in the roof to reveal the sky. It\u2019s a place for quiet as much as a place for talk.\nThe architecture of the Center for the Advancement of Public Action creates a community dedicated to ambitious thought and meaningful action. An inscription in the courtyard is by Adlai Stevenson \u2013 \u201cAs citizens of this democracy, you are the rulers and the rules, the law-givers and the law-abiding, the beginning and the end.\u201d This quote reminds us that the mission of this center and of its architecture is to educate young people to be better citizens of the world.",

Campaneria has performed with many of the best companies and prima ballerinas in the world. He has danced principal roles in such well-known ballets as The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, Romeo and Juliet, Giselle, and Coppelia.\n\"This appointment marks an important step in the re-emergence of our dance program as a school of the highest rank,\" said Community Division Director Mark George. \"Campaneria has the vision, skills and talent to take our dance program to new heights.\"\nWhen Campaneria was seven years old, he and his mother tried to escape Cuba in a small boat. They were caught and Campaneria's mother spent the next seven years in prison. A few years later, Campaneria was at a piano lesson when members of the National Ballet of Cuba came to look at his feet and decided he would become a dancer. He was forced to leave his family in order to study.\nCampaneria quickly rose to prominence and became the star of the National Ballet of Cuba at the age of 18. But he defected to Canada during a trip to perform in Montreal. He later defected to the United States and has since become a U.S. citizen. Retired from the stage for 10 years, Campaneria most recently taught in Haiti. In 2007, Campaneria was appointed by President Bush to serve on the National Council of the Arts, the advisory board of the National Endowment for the Arts.\nThe Hartt School Community Division offers a comprehensive program that trains dancers from the earliest stages of development through their entry in the post-secondary and professional worlds. Campaneria will hold initial auditions for his advanced and intermediate ballet classes Aug. 28-30 at the new Mort and Irma Handel Performing Arts Center.",

        "title": "UPC ..::|::.. Uganda Peoples Congress",
        "raw_content": "To: Andrew Mwenda\nFrom: A. Milton Obote\nYou asked me yesterday during \"Today Mwenda Live\" Radio Talk Show why the UPC was totally silent during the Presidential election 2001. I responded that: -\nThe answer is on two different but connected plains:-\nFirst, the Constitution debars the UPC from participating in every public election. As the UPC has been banned from being in every election, it could not also pretend to be a participant.\nSecond, there was no election. What was on, was, in fact, a scheme to entrench the NRA dictatorship. The NRA system of governance is a one-Party cum military dictatorship and does not therefore provide for a free and fair elections.\nUnfortunately, no caller came up with follow up questions. I hold very strongly that to elect is to choose. In order for the voters to choose, they must, in a free and fair election, be presented with and they must receive and be free to impart different ideas or policies for the governance of the country being proposed by different political groups or Parties.\nIn Uganda, the NRA system of governance has imposed what even the Almighty God never ordained when He made each human being to be a whole person capable to hold opinions and capable to receive and impart ideas and information. The NRA dictatorship has, on the contrary imposed it that every Uganda citizen must hold only the political opinion of the Movement and must receive and impart only the political ideas of the Movement. In other words, the imposition of the NRA dictatorship means that in politics and in elections as well as in governance God is wrong that every citizen should hold opinions and impart ideas and the NRA dictatorship is right that every citizen must be in and support the political Party of the NRA called the Movement.\nWhen an election is held on the premises that God is wrong and an insurgent Army, the NRA, is right in providing that the voters must not be presented with and must not receive and impart different policies for the governance of the country, any such election becomes a sacrilege and or profanity.\nIn ordinary life, when a person goes to a shop to buy an attire, the person chooses the texture and the colour but in the very serious matters of politics, elections and governance, the NRA dictatorship has decreed that there is to be no choice and that every citizen must be in the Party of the dictatorship and must obey the dictates of that Party. That is dictatorship and is also a profanity.\nAnother matter which was not adequately discussed is corruption which Museveni has instituted as a sub-system of governance.\nIn third-world countries, moral commitment to public service is low and institutions which can fight corruption are in infancy. Corruption in a third-world country becomes rampant when the President is corrupt.\nCorruption invaded governance in Uganda openly and aggressively in 1987. The occasion was the currency conversion. 30% of the money in circulation was levied as development Tax. The very huge sum was collected but it never appeared in any Budget. The entire sum went into the pocket of the President. since then, corruption has become a system of governance in Uganda.\nIn the 1960s, I was told that criminal gangs in the suburbs of Kampala would disappear and stop their activities as soon as they learnt that the police were in their areas. In third-world countries, like Uganda, the police in governance and politics are the opposition Parties.\nThe prohibition and debarment of opposition Parties from politics and elections, as the NRA dictatorship has imposed, is a prescription for the President, ministers and cronies of the ruling Party to be corrupt precisely because the prohibition and debarment also remove their competitors who are the opposition Parties and also the people's police from the arena.\nNo political Party and no President wants to be removed from office, through elections on the ground of corruption. It would, in my view, follow that a President who or a Party which believes in governance and elections without opposition Parties, is a President who and a Party which believes in corruption.\nIn Uganda, corruption is being sustained, promoted and fuelled by:-\nThe NRA system of governance.\nThe older democracies i.e. Governments in the European Union and North America who continue to praise the NRA dictatorship despite its horrendous record and also finance more than half the Budget of the dictatorship in complete oblivion of the fact that the people of Uganda have no say in the deployment and usage of their aid funds.\nYou may wish to publish the above views on the 2001 Presidential election and on corruption, to complete what was discussed, in any manner you think fit.\nThe view that Museveni has done a lot when in over 15 years he has built no secondary Schools or Hospitals and has suppressed the enjoyment and exercise by the citizen of his/her freedoms and the human rights of the individual or that previous regimes and governments did the same or worse can only be a calculated view to detract attention from the horrendous crimes of the NRA dictatorship. Two wrongs do not make a right.\nI wish to thank you and the Managers of the Monitor Radio FM for giving me the opportunity to air my views on the lamentable situation in our country where, for over 15 years, horrendous crimes have been committed and continue to be committed while the citizens have no voice in the governance of their country.",

        "title": "Lunch with a legend in Newfoundland | Vacay.ca",
        "raw_content": "Posted April 29, 2017 by Alan G. Luke in Newfoundland & Labrador\nCaptain\u2019s Table in Witless Bay is operated by the great-grandson of a Newfoundland hero. (Alan G. Luke/Vacay.ca)\nStory by Alan G. Luke\nWITLESS BAY, NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADOR \u2014 How can one of Canada\u2019s best kept secrets be legendary? It took a quest for the best fish and chips to discover why. During my tour of Newfoundland, affectionately known as \u201cThe Rock,\u201d I was directed to the Avalon Peninsula\u2019s southern shore. To experience one of the reputedly finest fish-and-chip establishments we went to Mobile, 35 kilometres (22miles) south of the provincial capital and close to the larger neighbouring community of Witless Bay.\nWhile the food is worth the journey, to truly experience the essence of the eatery one should also embrace its history.\nOn October 9, 1867, a vicious gale pounded the jagged coast of Labrador. Sealing captain William Jackman was already sheltered from the storm with his ship and crew. Overlooking the shoreline being lashed by the sea, he saw a fishing schooner stranded on a reef a few hundred metres in the distance. The vessel (Sea Clipper) had taken on the passengers of another schooner with which it had collided after a storm ravaged it. Evidently, there were 27 crew and passengers aboard the schooner. With a thick rope tied around his waist, Jackman plunged into the sea, making multiple return trips to save everyone. For Jackman\u2019s maritime rescuing prowess he was awarded a medal for courage by England\u2019s Royal Humane Society. He modestly gave it to his wife and told her to put it away. He never spoke of the medal again.\nCaptain William Jackman\u2019s rescue of passengers aboard a sinking vessel in the North Atlantic Ocean was commemorated on a Canada Post stamp. (Alan G. Luke/Vacay.ca)\nIn 1992, Jackman was officially acknowledged as a legendary Canadian hero. Canada Post issued a 42-cent stamp in honour of his feat. A framed enlargement of the stamp, with a painting of the muscular captain on it, greets you as you enter the restaurant whose name he inspired.\nThe co-owner and head chef of Captain\u2019s Table, Arthur Jackman, is the hero\u2019s great-grandson. His wife and restaurant manager, Phyllis, says, \u201cThe Captain\u2019s Table restaurant not only commemorates, but is guided by the principles of one of the greatest men that ever lived.\nA Canadian Hero\u2019s Tale Lives On\nA schooner has been replicated in front of the restaurant, while a cozy nautical-themed environment greets you inside. We enjoyed substantial portions of tender fish fillets covered with a light and crispy batter. \u201cCaptain Jackman readily saved souls, we happily serve souls,\u201d Phyllis Jackman proudly says.\n\u201cSo what constitutes quality fish and chips?\u201d I inquired.\n\u201cWell,\u201d she confides, \u201chere it\u2019s our Captain\u2019s secret batter with frequent oil changes and fresh fish.\u201d\nThese three things accompanied by a homey atmosphere were enough to sell this diner. A couple from Manchester, England at an adjacent table appeared to have a voracious appetite that was apparently appeased with ample seafood platters.\n\u201cPretty much like being across the pond. This chippy is great without the mushy peas,\u201d said the gentleman, comparing it to the quintessential British dish. I was satiated, too. I went looking for a lunch and left having discovered a legend.\nMORE ABOUT THE CAPTAIN\u2019S TABLE\nLocation: NL-10, Witless Bay, NL (see map below)\nHours: Open daily during the summer from 11:30 am to 9 pm\nNewfoundland and Labrador Tourism: www.newfoundlandandlabrador.com\narthur jackman, avalon peninsula, canadian legends, captain's table, featured-posts, fish and chips, food, hero, Labrador, newfoundland, phyllis jackman, sea clipper, travel, william jackman, witless bay\nAlan G.

        "title": "Pay Day: Why Vancouver Loves WeChat - Vancouver MagazinePay Day: Why Vancouver Loves WeChat - Vancouver Magazine",
        "raw_content": "By Frances Bula / Photo: Suharu Ogawa\nOpenRoad Auto Group is a convert. So is Profile Laser Centre in Richmond. As is Vancouver\u2019s city-owned parking system, EasyPark. Oh, and Holt Renfrew and Sprott Shaw College and more every passing month (Nordstrom just announced they\u2019re on board, too). Their common friend? China\u2019s hugely popular social media platform, WeChat, which allows users to do everything from booking a restaurant to calling a taxi to talking with friends to paying a bill.\nIt\u2019s that last function, more precisely called WeChat Pay, that Vancouver (and, indeed, North American) businesses are learning to love. A lot. \u201cSix months ago, I\u2019d never heard of it,\u201d says Merry Zolfaghari, the owner of Profile Laser, an aesthetics business that she\u2019s run in a Richmond mini-mall for the past 13 years. But she knew she had a lot of Chinese clients willing to use it. Within months of signing up, she saw a five-times return on her investment in the system\u2014about $3,000 for marketing to advertise her new payment option, along with the approximately $80-a-year charge for the electronic terminal that processes the payments\u2014and almost half of her clients were using it.\nOut in Burnaby, OpenRoad\u2019s area general manager, Brad Beckett, was interested as well in the WeChat Pay system. About 60 percent of the dealership\u2019s customers in that location, many of whom are students, speak Mandarin, and the dealership already tries to cater to that group. \u201cWe wanted to give our customers a high level of treatment. This has made everything a little easier. It increases the ease of buying,\u201d he says. Since the company introduced WeChat Pay as an option last October, about 10 percent of its Chinese-speaking customers use it to pay for the $5,000 deposit on their cars (the only part of the purchase OpenRoad accepts WeChat payment for).\nAnd it\u2019s getting easier to hook into the system because of North American connectors like Lancho Cephivenus. Chobee Aesthetic Marketing, the Vancouver-based company he formed three years ago, is on a campaign to introduce Canadian businesses to the social media pay platform. He\u2019s found that personal care and aesthetics-focused businesses are particularly fertile ground.\nMany new immigrants also don\u2019t have or can\u2019t get credit cards in Canada when they first arrive, so being able to pay through WeChat is an advantage for them, he points out. As well, they\u2019re just more familiar with WeChat than with other social media platforms.\n\u201cThe recent immigrants aren\u2019t in the habit of using Facebook or Google, so if you want to get their business, you need to do it through WeChat,\u201d says Cephivenus, who is originally from Taiwan. \u201cAnd they still store their money in China.\u201d\nThat would be people like Barton Li, a realtor who has lived in Vancouver for 18 years but still travels back to his hometown of Guangzhou frequently and maintains a bank account there. \u201cBefore, I would have to bring cash back from China. This is very convenient for me. I use WeChat a lot, so it\u2019s always in my hands.\u201d Li uses WeChat Pay mostly for small purchases\u2014when he goes to the grocery store, for example\u2014and spends about $500 a month using that system.\nNo one has exact statistics, but Cephivenus estimated earlier this year that about 4,000 businesses in Vancouver and Toronto are using WeChat Pay, with about 700,000 users in Toronto and 400,000 in Vancouver. In general, businesses like it because it helps them attract those customers who don\u2019t yet have credit or sometimes even a bank account in Canada. As well, it\u2019s seen as being as secure as Visa or Mastercard. And the charges (about 1.5 percent of each purchase) are lower than some credit cards. (Businesses are also interested in Alipay, another payment system from China associated with the Alibaba empire that was created originally to help customers make payments to the Amazon-like company\u2019s online shopping site.)\nThere are limitations, however. WeChat Pay, which is part of the Tencent Holdings multinational based in China, can\u2019t be used to buy items seen as investments, says Cephivenus. It can be used to pay for the legal fees associated with buying a house, but not for the house itself. Nor can it be used for insurance. And it can\u2019t be used to get around China\u2019s limit on taking capital out of the country, currently set at $50,000 (U.S.) a year.\nWhile some people who have used WeChat Pay aren\u2019t sure about the exact legalities, immigration lawyer Richard Kurland is. He is sure that the system can\u2019t be used to get around the currency controls. \u201cWeChat would normally want to keep annual tabs on totals exported, to ensure compliance with currency export controls,\u201d he said in an email. \u201cI\u2019m not trained in Chinese law, but it seems that WeChat might be held liable for infractions.\u201d\nOf course, that\u2019s a reminder that there\u2019s always the surveillance aspect of the system, as users around the world have discovered with all social media platforms. Lotus Ruan, a researcher with the Citizen Lab at the University of Toronto, observes that the platform does bring that issue with it. \u201cWe released a report on how WeChat applies a different censorship policies to users who signed up with a mainland Chinese phone number versus those who signed up with an international phone number,\u201d says Ruan. \u201cIn a nutshell, censorship on WeChat is enabled only to users signed up with a mainland Chinese phone number, and it persists even if they later link their account to an international number. This can potentially affect students abroad, tourists, business travellers, academics attending international conferences, and anyone who has recently emigrated out of China.\u201d\nIn spite of that, fans continue to pile into the system. Toward the end of 2017, WeChat had almost a billion users in China. Vancouver, which functions almost as an outpost for China, has a significant number of those users circulating throughout the city. And more and more businesses want access to that market. Yes, the high-end ones like Holt Renfrew and the luxury car dealerships. But also those as mundane as parking companies. EasyPark boasted last November that it was the first parking organization in B.C. to offer this \u201cmotion pay\u201d service. And it bubbled about its future expansion. \u201cEasyPark has plans to extend WeChat Pay and Alipay to all their Vancouver locations, including high-volume tourist centres like Stanley Park, Queen Elizabeth Park and Jericho Beach.\u201d Can Translink and McDonald\u2019s be far behind?\nProfile Laser Centre\nHow Vancouver should reimagine Robson Square\nWith the city planning to permanently close off a section of Robson Street, we asked two urban experts how it should be done\nReinventing the Richmond Waterfront\nVIP tours are now available for 2 River Green, Aspac\u2019s latest world class community",

        "title": "Video Game Legacy: Dating Sims",
        "raw_content": "No, I am not going to write about dating someone who talks in gibberish and has a diamond floating over his head, but I reckon you already expected that ;). In my gaming 'career' I have played some Japanese dating-sims and I had the luck to be able to understand the Japanese language. I didn't have fun, though. I did it all for science! No, really. I was writing my bachelor thesis about narratology and character relations in Japanese videogames and dating-sims do have a distinct aspect in this. If people ask me if I enjoy dating-sims, I always tell them that if I have to choose between playing dating-sims or poking my eyes out with a blunt screwdriver, I'll choose the dating-sims, because they don't inflict physical damage. There's no other reason, it's just because of the physical damage.\nGood day to you, madam. And yes, holding your\narms like that shows off your female-ness.\nDating-sims are games, mostly from Japan, in which you meet a couple of people and your goal is to end up in a relationship with one of them. The interface is usually ordered with a picture on top with text accompanying the picture at the bottom and an optional background. There are dating-sims in all different kinds, but mostly it's about a boy trying to get a girl or sometimes vice versa. Not that I have tried, but I haven't registered any homosexual equivalent of the standard dating-sim lay-out. If you, dear reader, do know a homosexual oriented dating-sim, please let me know in the comments. Science will be pleased. I, however, will not.\nAlthough it has been 4 years ago, I still feel a bit awkward about playing dating-sims for my bachelor thesis. When I started, I wanted to know the full scope of Japanese game genres and when I was in Japan I found dating-sims were almost everywhere. At first I was amused by how it all seemed to be designed for pussies. While we in the west see conquering women as a very muscle-masculine task, the Japanese dating-sim player has to find his feminine side. The graphics are usually drawn in pastel colours and the music is all high pitched, happy bouncy as if a horde of clown bunnies are going to declare world peace. I am NOT exaggerating. If you were to show a dating-sim to a unknowing western person and ask what s/he thinks is the gender of the target audience, s/he'd probably estimate it would be for girls.\nJust like a dating-sim, initially this picture looks innocent\nAfter the initial phase of laughter came the phase where I wondered if really all dating-sims were like this. Then came the phase of the horrible realisation that, yes, all dating-sims are like this. This phase was followed by the phase where I didn't want to be beaten by a stupid, pussy game like this. Thank goodness I never got to the moment where I'd actually conquer a girl. No, before that moment comes the phase where the aforementioned screwdriver suddenly seems VERY appealing.\nThe problem with dating-sims is that they are psychologically downright stupid in the way that characters are portrayed and how the developer imagines what the player thinks. Most of the time you do nothing but reading what is happening. Maybe you walk around a bit in the world, but I was mostly translating the text while in the mean time being ear-raped by the music that had long lost its comical aspect. If you are to strike up a conversation with one of the characters, the conversation will just roll out and you are mostly left with just 3 choices: engaging, neutral or repelling. When I interviewed Japanese people about their opinion on dating-sims, the lack of choice was one of the main complaints.\nTaking a (sort of) girl to a flowergarden\nWorst of all: there is no such thing as reverse psychology or anything. This was most apparent when I was playing Tokimeki memorial (your mental health forbids you to click that link) and I took the sporty/flower girl to a tropical flower garden. The conversation rolled out and I got my three choices:\n1) Flowers are beautiful, aren't they?\n2) You're not the flower type, are you?\n3) Are those edible?\nAnd, yes, the only right answer was number 1, the most soulless, easy-going, slime-ball answer of all. The other two just made the girl angry. I got curious and polled my female friends on their opinion on these lines. They unanimously told me their reaction would be the exact opposite, as number 2 would just be teasing and number 3 is plain hilarious at such a moment.\nI admit I don't dislike all dating-sims, some are even fun to play, like the Sakura Taisen series. Sakura Taisen has quite well developed characters and besides dating girls, you fight monsters in a giant, steam-punk battle mecha. The good part is that Sakura Taisen isn't the only dating-sim with variance and depth. The bad part is that Sakura Taisen isn't the only dating-sim featuring the very under-age girl. The very under-age girl seems to be one of those standard characters that just HAVE to be in the girl line-up. Anime fans might also know such characters from Tenchi Muyo and Love Hina.\nThe kid from Sakura Taisen 3. To you she might\nlook cute. To me she's fuel for nightmares.\nFor me, the presence of these minor characters can get very disturbing, because my Japanese isn't that good and to suave the toddler you have to go with the choice that is incidentally the easiest to read. I just can't break the heart of a little girl and thus in Sakura Taisen 3 the top-rated girl was suddenly the kid, because she wanted to rescue a person with giant mecha and I agreed by saying \"Let's go save Mr With-the-beard!\". I got my mecha battle and she thanked me by creeping me out with the words \"your voice gives me strength\" every time she sliced a monster. If anyone wants to say Japan is wrong in tightening the rules for sexual images of minors, THINK AGAIN! Thank goodness again that I have never been able to finish a dating-sim with any of the characters by my side. I can't imagine how I am going to explain anyone why I might look like a pedophile in the game. It was all accidental? Yeah, right.\nAlthough they might be horrible, I do understand the presence of dating-sims in the Japanese culture. It's not there because the Japanese would be a bit loopy, it is there for the same reason we have candlelight/harlequin pockets and girly magazines. The target audience, in our case 15 year old boys, has an insecurity or need for 'warmth' and dating-sims can provide it. It's not weird for boys to want to try girls in a controlled environment, practically every boy has been there. It does become weird, however, if one goes about taking these games seriously. I've only given a few examples, but the cheesiness and effed-up-ness that is portrayed as normal can get much worse than I described. If you ever find yourself playing a dating-sim, realise that most Japanese find these games revolting too. Furthermore, make sure there are no pointy objects lying close by, especially blunt screwdrivers.\nDating Sims January 22, 2014 at 11:10 AM\nhaha, great article. It's great to get a different perspective on dating games!",

        "raw_content": "Pastor Naomie Montissol\u2019s Biography\nIt is on April 6th 1974 that Naomie Montissol was born in the city of Jacmel in Haiti. At the age of 9 years old, her family immigrated in Canada and they got installed in Montreal. Since her young age, she was interested in the things of God, involving herself in her local church assembly at all levels. Having a growing thirst for the Lord, she participated to each meeting that was held during a revival that hit the province of Quebec in the 1990\u2019s. This is how she had met Pastor Emmanuel Dessalines at the age of 18. They got married four years later and from this union three wonderful children were born.\nIn 1994, she was one of the leaders of an evangelization group, Biblical Universty and College Group (GBUC). This group had much impact at the level of evangelization in Montreal. A few years later, she got her college degree in Human Sciences.\nIn 1997, while her husband devoted himself to full time Ministry, she thought that her role would be to only encourage and assist in the decisions. To her surprise, the Lord also chose her in order to help his people. In 2002, Prophetesse Naomie filled with conviction, left her career at the Bank of Montreal to answer the call of God. Therefore, her adventure with the Lord took a new direction. The Lord began to teach her the things of God in a way that no one else could have taught her, and through this she received multiple Godly experiences which are the essence of her Ministry.\nAfter that her husband had received the vision of the Transformed Lives Ministries, Pastor Naomie supported him. In 2005, she became a co-founder of the church Transformed Lives Ministries. Woman of prayer and faith, she was a huge support at every stage of development of the Ministry. Thus, she was the perfect ally for Pastor Dessalines for the expansion of the Church in its various departments to better meet the needs of God\u2019s people.\nHer passion and her love for the women that were coming to the assembly week after week, drove her to form an extension of her help in a different way. It is from this that in 2010, she had put into place the Transformed Women Ministries. Entirely dedicated to women in the goal to help them discover their identity as children of God and train their character and their confidence in themselves. Until this day it is through different platforms that they receive the teachings, webinars, retreats, round tables, and seminars all in the goal to fulfill their potential.\nFollowing the dazzling results of this Department and the enthusiasm of the women in the face of this, Pastor Naomie soon made herself known to other places in Montreal! The accuracy with which she addresses the subjects being taught has propelled her to make several trips across the world. She has left the mark of her footprints in several countries including the United States, France, Martinique, and the Republic of Haiti.\nBesides the Women Ministry, the Pastor Naomie worked with her husband in various areas of ministry, offering assistance and advice for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. Also author of several lessons, her only aim is to see lives being transformed and for children of God to achieve their destinies.",

        "title": "How to Write a Book in 90 Days or Less",
        "raw_content": "Getting started with writing a book can be daunting. I know, I've written two of them. But, here's the thing: it really doesn't have to be that intimidating. It's a simple matter of organization and consistency. I used two different strategies when writing my two books. You can use either one, it's really just a matter of personal preference. I will cover both strategies below, but pick the one you think best suits your personality.\nBefore we dig into the strategies, let\u2019s talk about the benefits of writing a book\u2026\nbe known as an expert\nuse it for publicity (getting interviewed on TV, radio, podcasts, etc\nuse it to gift prospects\nuse it to generate more leads (Free+Shipping funnel)\nuse it to get people into your ecosystem\nThe most common refrain I hear for people not wanting to write their book is because they don't believe they are qualified. Believe it or not, you are most likely already an expert in something. I would guess that you probably have some sort of skill or superpower that you don\u2019t really give that much thought to.\nMaybe you\u2019re really good at hiring and training new staff. Maybe you have a great system for scaling a business or getting seed money for a startup. Maybe you are great at a hobby or a sport and could teach what you know to others. So, the book I am talking about you writing here isn\u2019t going to require a lot of research on your part. You basically already know the material, it\u2019s just a matter of organizing it in a way to let you get it out on paper.\nSo, with that being said, I want to give you the two different processes I used to write my own books, Mastermind Group Blueprint and Kid Capitalist. If you will follow these steps you can write your own book in 90 days or less too. Let\u2019s start with Mastermind Group Blueprint.\nAt the time I wrote this book, I was running two paid mastermind groups for up to 6 people each. We would meet once per month for 4 hours, usually from 8am to 12pm and then I would feed them a really nice catered meal. The best part about running these groups is I was basically getting paid to sit in on meetings with really smart people and hear their ideas for growing their respective businesses.\nIt was really fun to see how the ideas would flow and be picked up by other members, tweaked slightly to fit their business and then implemented. Like once we had a financial advisor in the group and he was describing how he had created this shock and awe package to deliver to prospects and another lady in the group was able to take that idea and create something for her prospects.\nAnyway, I decided to write this book because after I had the groups going I had more and more people asking me how to start a mastermind group and I realized that I really did have a pretty good system in place.\nI had even put together a checklist that became sort of the working table of contents. I just had to rearrange some things and type them up and then I had a table of contents. For Mastermind Group Blueprint I ended up with 8 chapters total.\nSo, that leads us to the first step for writing a book in 90 days. To start you just have to create a table of contents. I would recommend having anywhere from 8-15 chapters. More the better, but it is up to you. Mastermind Group Blueprint has 8 chapters but another book I am working on right now has about 22 chapters.\nThese table of contents should include chapters for an introduction and a conclusion as well. Once you have your chapters lined out in a table of contents I would look at each chapter and try to come up with 5-7 sub-topics for each one. You want your chapters to be punchy and flow from logical idea to logical idea. This will help later when you are writing too. It\u2019s much easier in my opinion to write 2,000 words on 7 sub-topics than it is to write 14,000 on just a single chapter topic.\nOk, now that you have assembled your chapters and sub-topics you can spend a couple weeks on gathering supporting information that you might need. You\u2019ll want to buy a pack of 3X5 index cards and write these things out on each card. This could include statistical data you may need, anecdotes, references to studies, personal stories, stories in general, interviews with people, and on and on.\nOnce you have all your notes organized it\u2019s time to sit down and start writing.\nNow, this is the crucial part to making this work: commit to writing a certain number of words per day. It could be 500, it could 1,000, it could be 5,000. The actual number isn't nearly as important as the act of committing to the number and then sitting down and writing that amount of words EVERY SINGLE DAY. Without exception.\nWhen I sat down to write Mastermind Group Blueprint I made it my goal to write 1,000 words per day. That is basically two pages in Word. Now, I chose 1,000 because a) I knew it was a number that would make good headway if I stuck to it and b) even more importantly, I knew it was a manageable number. I wanted a number that would stretch me a bit, but that I would still feel comfortable doing.\nYour number may be different. It may only be 100 words. That\u2019s ok. I mean, it\u2019ll take you longer than 90 days to complete your book, but that\u2019s ok. At least you are working towards it. But think about this. If you spend about 30 days organizing and researching your topic and then commit to writing 1,000 words per day for the next 60 days you\u2019ll have a 60,000 word book. About 120 pages or so. That\u2019s a perfect sized book for someone to grab and read in a weekend or or on a long flight or whatever.\nAt this point the bulk of your work is complete. The next thing you\u2019ll want to do is get your cover designed (which really could be done during the writing phase) and submit your writing to a professional editor. Trust me on this. You want another set of eyes on this book. And I\u2019m not talking about your mom or your friend. You need a professional editor to help you tighten it up and make sure you aren\u2019t making foolish errors or typos. So, don\u2019t be cheap here\u2026spend a little dough on an editor. Once you get it back from the editor you\u2019ll need someone to layout the book in the proper format. This will include all kinds of stuff like dressing up the overall styling, adding in any images you are using, aligning the margins properly, designing how the sub-chapters look and so on.\nIf you go with a publisher, they generally have graphic artists, layout artists, and editors that they use. If you are self-publishing through Amazon\u2019s Create Space program or something similar, the you\u2019ll need to jump on Upwork or e-lance and find those folks yourself.\nThat\u2019s pretty much it. Pretty simple when you break it down that way, into manageable chunks. Just remember, the most important part that makes this whole thing work is making sure you are writing every day and hitting your goal number.\nKid Capitalist\nOk, let\u2019s talk about the second way to write a book. I wrote my book Kid Capitalist this way. It\u2019s very similar to the first way with a slight twist. But first, let me give you a quick overview of the book\u2026you may even consider picking up a copy or two for your own kids if you have any.\n(You can get a free copy of this book; all I ask is that you cover the shipping cost: Buy Your Copy Here)\nWhen I was 12 years old, my grandfather passed away from cancer. He was just 55. And he was a very successful entrepreneur in his own right. He built a thriving finance company in Monroe, LA, where I was born. They made small collateral loans to people. You\u2019d come for $300 or whatever and my grandpa would loan out the money and take your lawn mower as collateral, or whatever it was.\nAnyway, the real tragedy of his passing didn\u2019t hit me until I was an adult and I realized that he had died with all that knowledge and all that experience that he had acquired still inside him. He was very quiet man, introverted, did speak a lot. He was a lot like me in that regard. I love having my extended family over for the holidays and having them there but I\u2019ll go into my office and read when they are there. I want everyone there, I just don\u2019t want to interact with them\u2026just one of my many eccentricities I guess.\nBut thinking back on my grandfather\u2019s life got me thinking about my own life and my own experiences and my own knowledge and I decided I didn\u2019t want that to happen to me and my kids and grandkids. So, I decided to write down all the lessons I had learned in business up to that point in my life to pass on to my family. I wasn\u2019t necessarily intending to sell this book or make it public in any way, but I believe the lessons there are important. It\u2019s not really a \u201chow-to\u201d book at all, it\u2019s more just life lessons from an entrepreneur. I talk about being responsible with money, and how to be a good leader, and treating customers, employees, and vendors with respect, and how you should always be willing to deliver more in value than what you are receiving, and that kind of stuff.\nAnyway, like I said, the process I went through to write this book was a little different than how I did it with MMGB and so what I did was, instead of physically writing out the chapters, I took the table of contents along with my sub-topics and gave them to my publisher. And she wrote out 5-7 questions or so for each topic. Then we sat down together and she interviewed me, which we recorded. I took that recording and went onto Fiverr and found someone who could transcribe the interview for me.\nFrom there I just went in and cleaned it up a bit to make it sound like a book instead of an interview. After that was done, I gave it to my editor and just followed the other steps I talked about earlier to get it completed.\nDoing it this way made it so much easier and faster. I think I got this done - and when I say done I mean completely done from start to published book - in about 60 days. I give this book away to prospects, friends, family, acquaintances all the time. It has been a huge help in creating some really lasting relationships with people I may not have had access to before.\nSo, those are the two processes I have used to write two books so far with more on the way. I can guarantee you that if you\u2019ll follow these steps you can write your first book in way less time than you ever dreamed possible.\nWant a FREE copy of Kid Capitalist for your kids?

Tenzing Norgay (Sherpa) was the first summiteer of Chomolungma on May 29, 1953. He is admired worldwide as an icon of Sherpa dignity, friendship, and courage. Tenzing Norgay (Sherpa) along with Sir Edmund Hillary of New Zealand received international fame when they were the first summiteers of the highest mountain on earth, \"Chomolungma\" (Mount Everest) on May 29, 1953.\nMany expedition climbing Sherpas have become international celebrities in recent years, including Babu Chhiri Sherpa of Takshindu, who died climbing in 2001, and the beautiful Mrs. Pasang Lhamo Sherpa of Surkye (near Lukla) who died tragically after summiting Mt. Everest in 1993.\nThe Tengboche Rinpoche (Ngawang Tenzin Zangbu) who is abbot of Tengboche Gompa in Khumbu, is another world-famous and highly respected Sherpa.\nIn 2003 Sherpas, Pemba Dorje and Lhakpa Gelu, competed to see who could climb Everest from base camp the fastest. On 23 May 2003, Dorjie reached the summit in 12 hours and 46 minutes. Three days later, Gelu beat his record by two hours, reaching the summit in 10 hours 46 minutes. On 21 May 2004, Dorjie again improved the time by more than two hours with a total time of 8 hours and 10 minutes.\nOn 11 May 2011, Apa Sherpa successfully reached the summit of Everest for the twenty-first time, breaking his own record for the most successful ascents. He first climbed Mount Everest in 1989 at the age of 29. One of the most famous Nepalese female mountaineers was Pasang Lhamu Sherpa, the first Nepali female climber to reach the summit of Everest, but who died during the descent. Another well-known woman Sherpa was the two-time Everest summiter Pemba Doma Sherpa, who died after falling from Lhotse on 22 May 2007.\n2001, Temba Tsheri was youngest Everest climber in the world.

In doing so, the three Nepali women have become the first all-female team to climb what many mountaineers consider a much tougher challenge than Everest. The feat was announced in climbing circles as a breakthrough achievement for women in high-altitude mountaineering. Only 18 of the 376 people who have summited K2 have been women.",

His Marxist-Leninist theories, military strategies, and political policies are collectively known as Maoism.\nBorn the son of a wealthy farmer in Shaoshan, Hunan, Mao adopted a Chinese nationalist and anti-imperialist outlook in early life. He converted to Marxism-Leninism and became a founding member of the Communist Party of China (CPC), of which he became the head during the Long March. On October 1, 1949 Mao proclaimed the foundation of the People's Republic of China. In the following years he solidified his control through land reforms, through a psychological victory in the Korean War, and through campaigns against landlords, people he termed \"counterrevolutionaries,\" and other perceived enemies of the state. In 1957 he launched a campaign known as the Great Leap Forward that aimed to rapidly transform China's economy from an agrarian economy to an industrial one. This campaign, however, exacerbated agrarian problems leading to one the deadliest famines in history. In 1966, he initiated the Cultural Revolution, a program to weed out supposed counter-revolutionary elements in Chinese society. In 1972, he welcomed American president Richard Nixon in Beijing, signaling a policy of opening China.\n2 Early revolutionary activity\n2.1 The Xinhai Revolution\n2.2 Beijing: Student rebellions\n2.3 Founding the Communist Party of China\n2.4 Collaboration with the Kuomintang\n3.1 The Nanchang and Autumn Harvest Uprisings\n3.2 Jiangxi Soviet Republic of China\n3.3 The Long March\n3.4 Alliance with the Kuomintang\n3.5 Resuming civil war\n4 Leadership of China\n4.1 Korea and Tibet\n4.3 First Five-Year Plan\n4.4 Great Leap Forward\n4.5 Cultural Revolution\n6 Use of the media\n10 Writings and calligraphy\n11 Portrayal in film and television\nThis article contains Chinese text.\nWithout proper rendering support, you may see question marks, boxes, or other symbols instead of Chinese characters.\nA highly controversial figure, Mao is regarded as one of the most important individuals in modern world history. Supporters regard him as a great leader and credit him with numerous accomplishments including modernizing China and building it into a world power, promoting the status of women, improving education and health care, providing universal housing, and increasing life expectancy as China's population grew from around 550 to over 900 million during the period of his leadership. In contrast, critics, including many historians, have characterized him as a dictator who oversaw systematic human rights abuses, and whose rule is estimated to have contributed to the deaths of 40\u201370 million people through starvation, forced labor, and executions, ranking his tenure as the top incidence of democide in human history.\nMao was born on December 26, 1893 in Shaoshan village, Shaoshan, Hunan. His father, Mao Yichang, was an impoverished peasant who had become one of the wealthiest farmers in Shaoshan. Zedong described his father as a stern disciplinarian, who would beat him and his three siblings, the boys Zemin and Zetan, and an adopted girl, Zejian.[1] Yichang's wife, Wen Qimei, was a devout Buddhist who tried to temper her husband's strict attitude. Zedong too became a Buddhist, but abandoned this faith in his mid-teenage years.[2]\nAt the age of eight, Mao was sent to Shaoshan Primary School where he learned the value systems of Confucianism. He later admitted that he did not enjoy the classical Chinese texts preaching Confucian morals, instead favoring popular novels like Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin.[3]\nMao finished primary education at the age of 13 and his father had him married to the 17-year-old Luo Yixiu, uniting their land-owning families. Mao refused to recognize her as his wife, becoming a fierce critic of arranged marriage and temporarily moving away. Luo was locally disgraced and died in 1910.[4] Aged 16, Mao moved to a higher primary school in nearby Dongshan, where he was bullied for his peasant background.[1]\nWorking on his father's farm, Mao read voraciously, developing a \"political consciousness\" from Zheng Guanying's booklet which lamented the deterioration of Chinese power and argued for the adoption of representative democracy. Mao was inspired by the military prowess and nationalistic fervor of George Washington and Napoleon Bonaparte.[3] His political views were shaped by Gelaohui-led protests which erupted following a famine in the Hunanese capital Changsha. Mao supported the protester's demands, but the armed forces suppressed the dissenters and executed their leaders.[1] The famine spread to Shaoshan, where starving peasants seized his father's grain. Disapproving of their actions as morally wrong, Mao nevertheless claimed sympathy for their situation.[2]\nSimplified Chinese: \u6bdb\u6cfd\u4e1c\nTraditional Chinese: \u6bdb\u6fa4\u6771\nHanyu Pinyin: M\u00e1o Z\u00e9d\u014dng\n- Romanization: M\u00f4 Chhe\u030dt-t\u00fbng\n- Hanyu Pinyin: M\u00e1o Z\u00e9d\u014dng\n- Wade-Giles: Mao Tse-tung\n- Peh-oe-ji: M\u00f4\u0358 Te\u030dk-tong\n- Jyutping: mou4 zaak6dung1\nAfter moving to Changsha, Mao enrolled and dropped out of a police academy, a soap-production school, a law school, an economics school, and the government-run Changsha Middle School. Studying independently, he spent much time in Changsha's library, reading core works of classical liberalism such as Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations and Montesquieu's The Spirit of the Laws, as well as the works of western scientists and philosophers such as Darwin, Mill, Rousseau, and Spencer.[2] Viewing himself as an intellectual, he admitted years later that at this time he thought himself better than working people.[3]\nMao's childhood home in Shaoshan, in 2010, by which time it had become a tourist destination.\nMao decided to become a teacher and enrolled at the Fourth Normal School of Changsha, which soon merged with the First Normal School of Changsha, widely seen as the best school in Hunan. Professor Yang Changji befriended Mao and urged him to read a radical newspaper, New Youth (Xin qingnian), the creation of his friend Chen Duxiu, a dean at Peking University. Mao published his first article in New Youth in April 1917, instructing readers to increase their physical strength to serve the revolution. He joined the Society for the Study of Wang Fuzhi (Chuan-shan Hs\u00fceh-she), a revolutionary group founded by Changsha literati who wished to emulate the philosopher Wang Fuzhi.[2]\nSeeing no use in his son's intellectual pursuits, Mao's father had cut off his allowance, forcing him to move into a hostel for the destitute.[5] In his first school year, Mao befriended an older student, Xiao Yu; together they went on a walking tour of Hunan, begging and writing literary couplets to obtain food.[6] In 1915 Mao was elected secretary of the Students Society. Forging an Association for Student Self-Government, he led protests against school rules. In spring 1917, he was elected to command the students' volunteer army, set up to defend the school from marauding soldiers. Increasingly interested in the techniques of war, he took a keen interest in World War I, and also began to develop a sense of solidarity with workers.[3] Mao undertook feats of physical endurance with Xiao Yu and Cai Hesen, and with other young revolutionaries they formed the Renovation of the People Study Society in April 1918 to debate Chen Duxiu's ideas. The Society gained 70\u201380 members, many of whom would later join the Communist Party. Mao graduated in June 1919, ranked third in the year.[1]\nMao moved to Beijing and, paid a low wage, lived in a cramped room with seven other Hunanese students. He believed that Beijing's beauty offered \"vivid and living compensation.\"[3] His time in Beijing ended in the spring of 1919, when he traveled to Shanghai with friends departing for France, before returning to Shaoshan, where his mother was terminally ill; she died in October 1919, with her husband dying in January 1920.[3]\nMao adopted a Chinese nationalist and anti-imperialist outlook in early life, particularly influenced by the events of the Xinhai Revolution of 1911 and May Fourth Movement of 1919. He converted to Marxism-Leninism while working at Peking University and became a founding member of the Communist Party of China (CPC).\nThe Xinhai Revolution\nMao in 1913.\nThe Xinhai Revolution of 1911 overthrew China's last imperial dynasty (the Qing dynasty), and established the Republic of China (ROC). In Changsha there was widespread animosity towards Emperor Puyi's absolute monarchy, with many advocating republicanism. The republicans' figurehead was Sun Yat-sen, an American-educated Christian who led the Tongmenghui society.[5] Mao was influenced by Sun's newspaper, The People's Independence (Minli bao), and called for Sun to become president in a school essay.[1] As a symbol of rebellion against the Manchu monarch, Mao and a friend cut off their queue pigtails, a sign of subservience to the emperor.[2]\nMao joined the rebel army as a private soldier, but was not involved in fighting. When the revolution was over in 1912, he resigned from the army after six months of being a soldier.[3] Around this time, Mao discovered socialism from a newspaper article; proceeding to read pamphlets by Jiang Kanghu, the student founder of the Chinese Socialist Party, Mao remained interested yet unconvinced by the idea.[1]\nBeijing: Student rebellions\nFollowing the success of the October Revolution in the Russian Empire, in which Marxists took power, Mao came under the theoretical influence of Karl Marx (left) and Lenin (right).\nMao moved to Beijing where his mentor Yang Changji had taken a job at Peking University. Yang thought Mao exceptionally \"intelligent and handsome,\" securing him a job as assistant to the university librarian Li Dazhao, an early Chinese communist.[4] Li authored a series of New Youth articles on the October Revolution in Russia, during which the communist Bolshevik Party under the leadership of Vladimir Lenin had seized power. Becoming \"more and more radical,\" Mao was influenced by Peter Kropotkin's anarchism but joined Li's Study Group and \"developed rapidly toward Marxism\" during the winter of 1919.[1]\nIn May 1919, the May Fourth Movement erupted in Beijing, with Chinese patriots rallying against the Japanese and Duan's Beiyang Government. Duan's troops were sent in to crush the protests, but unrest spread throughout China. Mao began organizing protests against the pro-Duan Governor of Hunan Province, Zhang Jinghui, popularly known as \"Zhang the Venomous\" due to his criminal activities. He co-founded the Hunanese Student Association with He Shuheng and Deng Zhongxia, organizing a student strike for June and in July 1919 began production of a weekly radical magazine, Xiang River Review (Xiangjiang pinglun). Using vernacular language that would be understandable to the majority of China's populace, he advocated the need for a \"Great Union of the Popular Masses.\" His ideas at that time were not Marxist, but heavily influenced by Kropotkin's concept of mutual aid.[3]\nStudents in Beijing rallied during the May Fourth Movement.\nZhang banned the Student Association, but Mao continued publishing after assuming editorship of liberal magazine New Hunan (Xin Hunan) and offering articles in popular local newspaper Justice (Ta Kung Po). Several of these articles advocated feminist views, calling for the liberation of women in Chinese society. In this, Mao was influenced by his forced arranged marriage.[1] In December 1919, Mao helped organize a general strike in Hunan, securing some concessions, but Mao and other student leaders felt threatened by Zhang, and Mao returned to Beijing, visiting the terminally ill Yang Changji. Mao found that his articles had achieved a level of fame among the revolutionary movement, and set about soliciting support in overthrowing Zhang. Coming across newly translated Marxist literature by Thomas Kirkup, Karl Kautsky, and Marx and Engels\u2014notably The Communist Manifesto\u2014he came increasingly under their influence, but was still eclectic in his views.[3]\nMao visited Tianjin, Jinan, and Qufu, before moving to Shanghai, where he met Chen Duxiu. He noted that Chen's adoption of Marxism \"deeply impressed me at what was probably a critical period in my life.\"[3] In Shanghai, Mao met his old teacher, Yi Peiji, a revolutionary and member of the Kuomintang (KMT), or Chinese Nationalist Party, which was gaining increasing support and influence. Yi introduced Mao to General Tan Yankai, a senior KMT member who held the loyalty of troops stationed along the Hunanese border with Guangdong. Tan was plotting to overthrow Zhang, and Mao aided him by organizing the Changsha students. In June 1920, Tan led his troops into Changsha, while Zhang fled. In the subsequent reorganization of the provincial administration, Mao was appointed headmaster of the junior section of the First Normal School. With a secure income, he married Yang Kaihui in the winter of 1920.[1]\nFounding the Communist Party of China\nLocation of the first Congress of the Chinese Communist Party in July 1921, in Xintiandi, former French Concession, Shanghai.\nIn 1921 Chen Duxiu and Li Dazhao founded the Communist Party of China as a study society and informal network. Mao set up a Changsha branch and opened a bookstore for the purpose of propagating revolutionary literature throughout Hunan.\nBy 1921, small Marxist groups existed in Shanghai, Beijing, Changsha, Wuhan, Canton, and Jinan, and it was decided to hold a central meeting, which began in Shanghai on July 23, 1921. This first session of the National Congress of the Communist Party of China was attended by 13 delegates, Mao included, and met in a girls' school that was closed for the summer. After the authorities sent a police spy to the congress, the delegates moved to a boat on South Lake near Chiahsing to escape detection.\nNow party secretary for Hunan, Mao was stationed in Changsha, from which he went on a Communist recruitment drive. In August 1921, he founded the Self-Study University, through which readers could gain access to revolutionary literature, housed in the premises of the Society for the Study of Wang Fuzhi. Taking part in the Chinese National YMCA mass education movement to fight illiteracy, he opened a Changsha branch, though replaced the usual textbooks with revolutionary tracts in order to spread Marxism among the students. He continued organizing the labor movement to strike against the administration of Hunan Governor Zhao Hengti. In July 1922, the Second Congress of the Communist Party took place in Shanghai. Adopting Lenin's advice, the delegates agreed to an alliance with the \"bourgeois democrats\" of the KMT for the good of the \"national revolution.\" Communist Party members joined the KMT, hoping to push its politics leftward. Mao enthusiastically agreed with this decision, arguing for an alliance across China's socio-economic classes.\nCollaboration with the Kuomintang\nMao the revolutionary in 1927.\nAt the Third Congress of the Communist Party in Shanghai in June 1923, the delegates reaffirmed their commitment to working with the KMT against the Beiyang government and imperialists. Supporting this position, Mao was elected to the Party Committee, taking up residence in Shanghai. Attending the First KMT Congress, held in Guangzhou in early 1924, Mao was elected an alternate member of the KMT Central Executive Committee, and put forward four resolutions to decentralize power to urban and rural bureaus. His enthusiastic support for the KMT earned him the suspicion of some communists.[1] In late 1924, Mao returned to Shaoshan to recuperate from an illness. Discovering that the peasantry were increasingly restless due to the upheaval of the past decade (some had seized land from wealthy landowners to found communes) he became convinced of the revolutionary potential of the peasantry. As a result, Mao was appointed to run the KMT's Peasant Movement Training Institute, also becoming Director of its Propaganda Department and editing its Political Weekly (Zhengzhi zhoubao) newsletter.[4]\nThrough the Peasant Movement Training Institute, Mao took an active role in organizing the revolutionary Hunanese peasants and preparing them for militant activity, taking them through military training exercises and getting them to study various left-wing texts. In the winter of 1925, Mao fled to Canton after his revolutionary activities attracted the attention of Zhao's regional authorities.\nWhen KMT party leader Sun Yat-sen died in May 1925, he was succeeded by a rightist, Chiang Kai-shek, who initiated moves to marginalize the position of the communists. Mao nevertheless supported Chiang's decision to overthrow the Beiyang government and their foreign imperialist allies using the National Revolutionary Army, who embarked on the Northern Expedition in 1926. In the wake of this expedition, peasants rose up, appropriating the land of the wealthy landowners, many of whom were killed. Such uprisings angered senior KMT figures, who were themselves landowners, emphasizing the growing class and ideological divide within the revolutionary movement.\nIn March 1927, Mao appeared at the Third Plenum of the KMT Central Executive Committee in Wuhan, which sought to strip General Chiang of his power by appointing Wang Jingwei leader. There, Mao played an active role in the discussions regarding the peasant issue, defending a set of \"Regulations for the Repression of Local Bullies and Bad Gentry,\" which advocated the death penalty or life imprisonment for anyone found guilty of counter-revolutionary activity, arguing that in a revolutionary situation, \"peaceful methods cannot suffice.\"[4] In April 1927, Mao was appointed to the KMT's five-member Central Land Committee, urging peasants to refuse to pay rent. Mao led another group to put together a \"Draft Resolution on the Land Question,\" which called for the confiscation of land belonging to \"local bullies and bad gentry, corrupt officials, militarists and all counter-revolutionary elements in the villages.\" [1]\nMain article: Chinese Civil War\nIn 1927 Mao's Autumn Harvest Uprising showed the potential revolutionary power of the peasants. At the same time, the KMT's military leader Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek mounted an anti-communist purge, setting off the Chinese Civil War.\nThe Nanchang and Autumn Harvest Uprisings\nThe CPC continued supporting the Wuhan KMT government, a position Mao initially supported, but he had changed his mind by the time of the CPC's Fifth Congress, deciding to stake all hope on the peasant militia.[5] The question was rendered moot when the Wuhan government expelled all communists from the KMT. The CPC founded the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army of China, better known as the \"Red Army,\" to battle Chiang. A battalion led by General Zhu De was ordered to take the city of Nanchang on August 1, 1927 in what became known as the Nanchang Uprising; initially successful, they were forced into retreat after five days, marching south to Shantou, and from there being driven into the wilderness of Fujian.\nAppointed commander-in-chief of the Red Army, Mao led four regiments against Changsha in the Autumn Harvest Uprising, hoping to spark peasant uprisings across Hunan. On the eve of the attack, Mao composed a poem\u2014the earliest of his to survive\u2014titled \"Changsha.\" Mao's plan was to attack the KMT-held city from three directions on September 9, but the Fourth Regiment deserted to the KMT cause, attacking the Third Regiment. Mao's army made it to Changsha, but could not take it; by September 15 he accepted defeat, with 1,000 survivors marching east to the Jinggang Mountains of Jiangxi.[4]\nThe CPC Central Committee expelled Mao from their rank and from the Hunan Provincial Committee, punishment for his \"military opportunism,\" for his focus on rural activity, and for being too lenient with \"bad gentry.\" Setting up base in Jinggangshan City, an area of the Jinggang Mountains, Mao united five villages as a self-governing state, supporting the confiscation of land from rich landlords, who were \"re-educated\" and sometimes executed. He ensured that no massacres took place in the region, pursuing a more lenient approach than that advocated by the Central Committee.[1] Proclaiming that \"Even the lame, the deaf and the blind could all come in useful for the revolutionary struggle,\" he boosted the army's numbers, incorporating two groups of bandits into his army, building a force of around 1,800 troops. He laid down rules for his soldiers: prompt obedience to orders, all confiscations were to be turned over to the government, and nothing was to be confiscated from poorer peasants. In doing so, he molded his men into a disciplined, efficient fighting force.[5]\nIn spring 1928, the Central Committee ordered Mao's troops to southern Hunan, hoping to spark peasant uprisings. Mao was skeptical, but complied. Reaching Hunan, they were attacked by the KMT and fled after heavy losses. Meanwhile, KMT troops had invaded Jinggangshan, leaving them without a base. Wandering the countryside, Mao's forces came across a CPC regiment led by General Zhu De and Lin Biao; they united and retook Jinggangshan after prolonged guerrilla war against the KMT. Joined by a defecting KMT regiment and Peng Dehuai's Fifth Red Army, the mountainous area was unable to grow enough crops to feed everyone, leading to food shortages throughout the winter.[4]\nJiangxi Soviet Republic of China\nMao with his third wife, He Zizhen.\nIn January 1929, Mao and Zhu evacuated the base and took their armies south, to the area around Tonggu and Xinfeng in Jiangxi, which they consolidated as a new base. Together having 2,000 men, with a further 800 provided by Peng, the evacuation led to a drop in morale, and many troops became disobedient and began thieving; this worried Li Lisan and the Central Committee. Li believed that only the urban proletariat could lead a successful revolution, and saw little need for Mao's peasant guerrillas. Mao refused to disband his army or abandon his base. Officials in Moscow desired greater control over the CPC, removing Li from power by calling him to Russia for an inquest into his errors and replacing him with Soviet-educated Chinese communists, known as the \"28 Bolsheviks,\" two of whom, Bo Gu and Zhang Wentian, took control of the Central Committee. Mao disagreed with the new leadership, believing they grasped little of the Chinese situation, and soon emerged as their key rival.[1]\nIn February 1930, Mao created the Southwest Jiangxi Provincial Soviet Government in the region under his control. In November his wife and sister were captured and beheaded by KMT general He Jian. Mao then married He Zizhen, an 18-year-old revolutionary who bore him five children over the following nine years.[4] Members of the Jiangxi Soviet accused him of being too moderate, and hence anti-revolutionary. In December, they tried to overthrow Mao, resulting in the Futian incident; putting down the rebels, Mao's loyalists tortured many and executed between 2,000 and 3,000 dissenters.[1] Seeing it as a secure area, the CPC Central Committee moved to Jiangxi, which in November was proclaimed to be the Soviet Republic of China, an independent Communist-governed state. Although proclaimed Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars, Mao's power was diminished, with control of the Red Army being allocated to Zhou Enlai; Mao meanwhile recovered from tuberculosis.[5]\nAttempting to defeat the Communists, the KMT armies adopted a policy of encirclement and annihilation; outnumbered, Mao responded with guerrilla tactics, but Zhou and the new leadership replaced this approach with a policy of open confrontation and conventional warfare. In doing so the Red Army successfully defeated the first and second encirclements. Angered at his armies' failure, Chiang Kai-shek personally arrived to lead the operation; also facing setbacks, he retreated to deal with the further Japanese incursions into China. Victorious, the Red Army expanded its area of control, eventually encompassing a population of 3 million. Viewing the Communists as a greater threat than the Japanese, Chiang returned to Jiangxi, initiating the fifth encirclement campaign, involving the construction of a concrete and barbed wire \"wall of fire\" around the state, accompanied by aerial bombardment, to which Zhou's tactics proved ineffective. Trapped inside, morale among the Red Army dropped as food and medicine became scarce, and the leadership decided to evacuate.[4]\nMain article: Long March\nOn October 14, 1934, the Red Army broke through the KMT line on the Jiangxi Soviet's south-west corner at Xinfeng with 85,000 soldiers and 15,000 party cadres and embarked on the \"Long March.\" In order to make the escape, many of the wounded and the ill as well as women and children, including Mao's two young children born to He Zizhen who accompanied Mao on the march, were left behind. They took Zunyi in January 1935 where they held a conference. Mao was elected to a position of leadership, becoming Chairman of the Politburo and de facto leader of both Party and Red Army, in part because his candidacy was supported by Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin. Insisting that they operate as a guerrilla force, Mao laid out a destination: the Shenshi Soviet in Shaanxi, Northern China, from where the Communists could focus on fighting the Japanese.\nMao led his troops to Loushan Pass, where they faced armed opposition but successfully crossed the river. Chiang flew into the area to lead his armies against Mao, but the Communists out-maneuvered him and crossed the Jinsha River. Faced with the more difficult task of crossing the Tatu River, they managed it by fighting a battle over the Luding Bridge in May, taking Luding. Marching through the mountain ranges around Ma'anshan, in Moukung, Western Szechuan they encountered the 50,000-strong CPC Fourth Front Army of Zhang Guotao, together proceeding to Maoerhkai and then Gansu. However, Zhang and Mao disagreed over what to do; the latter wished to proceed to Shaanxi, while Zhang wanted to flee east to Tibet or Sikkim, far from the KMT threat. It was agreed that they would go their separate ways, with Zhu De joining Zhang. Mao's forces proceeded north, through hundreds of miles of Grasslands, an area of quagmire where they were attacked by Manchu tribesman and where many soldiers succumbed to famine and disease. Finally reaching Shaanxi, they fought off both the KMT and an Islamic cavalry militia before crossing over the Min Mountains and Mount Liupan and reaching the Shenshi Soviet; only 7-8,000 had survived.[4]\nWhile costly, the Long March gave the Communist Party of China (CPC) the isolation it needed, allowing its army to recuperate and rebuild in the north of China. The Chinese communists developed their ideology, their methods of indoctrination and their guerrilla tactics. The determination and dedication of the surviving participants of the Long March was vital in helping the CPC to gain a positive reputation among the peasants.\nThe Long March cemented Mao's status as the dominant figure in the party. In November 1935, he was named chairman of the Military Commission. From this point onward, Mao was the Communist Party's undisputed leader, even though he would not become party chairman until 1943.[7]\nIt should be noted that many of the events as later described by Mao and which now form the official story of the Communist Party of China, as told above, are regarded as lies by some historians. During the decade spent researching the book, Mao: The Unknown Story, for instance, Jung Chang found evidence that there was no battle at Luding and that the CCP crossed the bridge unopposed.[8]\nAlliance with the Kuomintang\nIn an effort to defeat the Japanese, Mao (left) agreed to collaborate with Chiang (right).\nArriving at the Yan'an Soviet during October 1935, Mao's troops settled in Pao An. Remaining there till spring 1936, they developed links with local communities, redistributed and farmed the land, offered medical treatment and began literacy programs.[4] Mao now commanded 15,000 soldiers, boosted by the arrival of He Long's men from Hunan and the armies of Zhu Den and Zhang Guotao, returning from Tibet. In February 1936 they established the North West Anti-Japanese Red Army University in Yan'an, through which they trained increasing numbers of new recruits. In January 1937 they began the \"anti-Japanese expedition,\" sending groups of guerrilla fighters into Japanese-controlled territory to undertake sporadic attacks, while in May 1937, a Communist Conference was held in Yan'an to discuss the situation. Western reporters also arrived in the \"Border Region\" (as the Soviet had been renamed); most notable were Edgar Snow, who used his experiences as a basis for Red Star Over China, and Agnes Smedley, whose accounts brought international attention to Mao's cause.[1]\nOn the Long March, Mao's wife He Zizen had been injured from a shrapnel wound to the head, and so traveled to Moscow for medical treatment; Mao proceeded to divorce her and marry an actress, Jiang Qing. Mao moved into a cave-house and spent much of his time reading, tending his garden and theorizing.[5] He came to believe that the Red Army alone was unable to defeat the Japanese, and that a Communist-led \"government of national defense\" should be formed with the KMT and other \"bourgeois nationalist\" elements to achieve this goal. Although despising Chiang Kai-shek as a \"traitor to the nation\", on May 5 he telegrammed the Military Council of the Nanking National Government proposing a military alliance, a course of action advocated by Stalin.[1] Although Chiang intended to ignore Mao's message and continue the civil war, he was arrested by one of his own generals, Zhang Xueliang, in Xi'an, leading to the Xi'an Incident; Zhang forced Chiang to discuss the issue with the Communists, resulting in the formation of a United Front with concessions on both sides on December 25, 1937.[4]\nMao in 1938, writing On Protracted War.\nIn August 1938, the Red Army formed the New Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army, which were nominally under the command of Chiang's National Revolutionary Army. In August 1940, the Red Army initiated the Hundred Regiments Campaign, in which 400,000 troops attacked the Japanese simultaneously in five provinces; a military success, it resulted in the death of 20,000 Japanese, the disruption of railways and the loss of a coal mine. From his base in Yan'an, Mao authored several texts for his troops, including Philosophy of Revolution, which offered an introduction to the Marxist theory of knowledge, Protracted Warfare, which dealt with guerrilla and mobile military tactics, and New Democracy, which laid forward ideas for China's future.\nResuming civil war\nMao with his fourth wife, Jiang Qing, called \"Madame Mao,\" 1946\nAfter the end of World War II, the U.S. continued their military assistance to Chiang Kai-shek and his KMT government forces against the People's Liberation Army (PLA) led by Mao in the civil war for control of China. In 1948, under direct orders from Mao, the People's Liberation Army starved out the Kuomintang forces occupying the city of Changchun. At least 160,000 civilians are believed to have perished during the siege, which lasted from June until October. On January 21, 1949, Kuomintang forces suffered great losses in battles against Mao's forces. In the early morning of December 10, 1949, PLA troops laid siege to Chengdu, the last KMT-held city in mainland China, and Chiang Kai-shek evacuated from the mainland to Formos (now Taiwan).[9]\nLeadership of China\nOn October 1, 1949 Mao proclaimed the foundation of the People's Republic of China, a one-party socialist state controlled by the Communist Party. In the following years Mao solidified his control through land reforms, through a psychological victory in the Korean War, and through campaigns against landlords, people he termed \"counterrevolutionaries,\" and other perceived enemies of the state. Mao took up residence in Zhongnanhai, a compound next to the Forbidden City in Beijing, and there he ordered the construction of an indoor swimming pool and other buildings.\nMao Zedong declares the founding of the modern People's Republic of China, October 1, 1949\nKorea and Tibet\nAfter Mao won the Chinese civil war in 1949, his goal became the unification of the \u201cfive races\u201d under the big family, China.[10]\nIn October 1950, Mao made the decision to send the Chinese People's Volunteer Army into Korea and fight against the United Nations forces led by the U.S. Historical records showed that Mao directed minute details of the campaigns in the Korean War.[11]\nAware of Mao\u2019s vision, the Tibetan government in Lhasa (Tibet) sent a representative, Ngapo Ngawang Jigme to Chamdo, Kham, a strategically high valued town near the border. Ngapo had orders to hold the position while reinforcements was coming from the Lhasa and fight off the Chinese.[10] On October 16, 1950, news came that the PLA was advancing towards Chamdo and had also taken another strategic town named, Riwoche, which could block the route to Lhasa. With new orders, Ngapo and his men retreated to a monastery where the PLA finally surrounded and captured them, though they were treated with respect. Ngapo wrote to Lhasa suggesting a peaceful surrender or \u201cliberation\u201d instead of war. During the negotiation, the Chinese negotiator was clear: \u201cIt is up to you to choose whether Tibet would be liberated peacefully or by force. It is only a matter of sending a telegram to the PLA group to recommence their march to Lhasa.\"[10] Ngapo accepted Mao\u2019s \u201cSeventeen-Point Agreement,\u201d which constituted Tibet as part of China, in return for which Tibet would be granted autonomy.In the face of discouraging lack of support from the rest of the world, the Dalai Lama on August 1951, sent a telegram to Mao accepting the Seventeen-Point Agreement.[10]\nEarly Campaigns\nChina had been through a series of land reforms before the establishment of the People's Republic of China. In 1946, land and other property of landlords were expropriated and redistributed so that each household in a rural village would have a comparable holding. Significant numbers of landlords and well-to-do peasants were beaten to death at mass meetings organized by the Communist Party as land was taken from them and given to poorer peasants.[12] Shortly after the founding of the PRC, Mao laid down new guidelines, insisting that the people themselves should become involved in the killing of landlords who had oppressed them.[12] Mao thought that peasants who killed landlords with their bare hands would become permanently linked to the revolutionary process in a way that passive spectators could not be.\nAlong with land reform, there was also the Campaign to Suppress Counterrevolutionaries.[13] This involved public executions targeting mainly former Kuomintang officials, businessmen accused of \"disturbing\" the market, former employees of Western companies and intellectuals whose loyalty was suspect.[14] The U.S. State department in 1976 estimated that there may have been a million killed in the land reform, and 800,000 killed in the counterrevolutionary campaign.[15]\nMao himself claimed that a total of 700,000 people were killed in attacks on \"counter-revolutionaries\" during the years 1950\u20131952.[16] Mao obtained this number from a report submitted by Xu Zirong, Deputy Public Security Minister, which stated 712,000 counterrevolutionaries were executed, 1,290,000 were imprisoned, and another 1,200,000 were \"subjected to control.\"[13] However, because there was a policy to select \"at least one landlord, and usually several, in virtually every village for public execution,\"[17] the number of deaths range between 2 million [18] and 5 million.[14] In addition, at least 1.5 million people, perhaps as many as 4 to 6 million, were sent to \"reform through labor\" camps where many perished.[19] Mao played a personal role in organizing the mass repressions and established a system of execution quotas, which were often exceeded.[13]\nStarting in 1951, Mao initiated two successive movements in an effort to rid urban areas of corruption by targeting wealthy capitalists and political opponents, known as the three-anti/five-anti campaigns. While the three-anti campaign was a focused purge of government, industrial and party officials, the five-anti campaign set its sights slightly broader, targeting capitalist elements in general.[20] A climate of raw terror developed as workers denounced their bosses, spouses turned on their spouses, and children informed on their parents; the victims were often humiliated at struggle sessions, a method designed to intimidate and terrify people to the maximum. Mao insisted that minor offenders be criticized and reformed or sent to labor camps, \"while the worst among them should be shot.\" These campaigns took several hundred thousand additional lives, the vast majority via suicide.[12]\nMao at Joseph Stalin's 70th birthday celebration in Moscow, December 1949\nAfter consolidating his power Mao launched the First Five-Year Plan (1953\u20131958) which plan aimed to end Chinese dependence on agriculture in order to become a world power. With the Soviet Union's assistance, new industrial plants were built and agricultural production eventually fell to a point where industry was beginning to produce enough capital that China no longer needed the USSR's support.\nPrograms pursued during this time include the Hundred Flowers Campaign, in which Mao indicated his supposed willingness to consider different opinions about how China should be governed. Given the freedom to express themselves, liberal and intellectual Chinese began opposing the Communist Party and questioning its leadership. On June 8, 1957, Mao published an editorial in the Chinese Communist Party\u2019s The People\u2019s Daily. Mao declared that \u201cpoisonous weeds\u201d had grown among the \u201cfragrant flowers\u201d within the one hundred blooming flowers of people\u2019s criticism. Mao subsequently used the newspapers to identify individuals responsible for certain criticisms as right-wingers and counter-revolutionaries who abused the invitation given to the people to use their voice.[21] The ramifications for intellectuals who participated in criticism spanned from being harassed, labeled as rightists, or worse, counter revolutionists. Some intellectuals were subject to house arrest and forced to write confessions and self criticisms of their crimes, and others were banned from living within urban residencies and or sent for re-education. A few were executed or harassed to death.[21]\nAuthors such as Jung Chang have alleged that the Hundred Flowers Campaign was merely a ruse to root out \"dangerous\" thinking.[8]\nThe success of the First-Five Year Plan encouraged Mao to instigate the Second Five-Year Plan, known as the Great Leap Forward, in January 1958. This plan was intended as an alternative model to the Soviet model for economic growth, which focused on heavy industry, advocated by others in the party. Under Mao's economic program the relatively small agricultural collectives which had been formed to date were rapidly merged into far larger people's communes, and many of the peasants were ordered to work on massive infrastructure projects and on the production of iron and steel. Some private food production was banned; livestock and farm implements were brought under collective ownership.\nMao and other party leaders ordered the new communes to implement a variety of unproven and unscientific new agricultural techniques. The diversion of labor to steel production and infrastructure projects compounded by natural disasters, such as droughts and floods, combined with these projects led to an approximately 15 percent drop in grain production in 1959 followed by a further 10 percent decline in 1960 and no recovery in 1961.[16]\nIn the beginning, commune members were able to eat for free at the commune canteens. This changed when food production slowed to a halt.\nIn an effort to win favor with their superiors and avoid being purged, each layer in the party hierarchy exaggerated the amount of grain produced under them. Based upon the fabricated success, party cadres were ordered to requisition a disproportionately high amount of the true harvest for state use, primarily in the cities and urban areas but also for export. The net result left rural peasants with little food for themselves and many millions starved to death in what is known as the Great Chinese Famine. This famine was a cause of the death of some tens of millions Chinese peasants between 1959 and 1962.[22] Further, many children who became emaciated and malnourished during years of hardship and struggle for survival died shortly after the Great Leap Forward came to an end in 1962.[16]\nThe extent of Mao's knowledge of the severity of the situation has been disputed. Some believe that he may have been unaware of the extent of the famine, partly due to a reluctance to criticize his policies and decisions and the willingness of his staff to exaggerate or provide false reports regarding food production. According to his physician, Li Zhi-Sui, upon learning of the extent of the starvation, Mao vowed to stop eating meat, an action followed by his staff.[23] Others have disputed the reliability of the figures commonly cited, the qualitative evidence of a \"massive death toll,\" and Mao's complicity in those deaths which occurred.[24]\nHowever, Hong Kong-based historian Frank Dik\u00f6tter, who conducted extensive archival research on the Great Leap Forward in local and regional Chinese government archives, challenged the notion that Mao did not know about the famine until it was too late:\nThe idea that the state mistakenly took too much grain from the countryside because it assumed that the harvest was much larger than it was is largely a myth\u2014at most partially true for the autumn of 1958 only. In most cases the party knew very well that it was starving its own people to death. At a secret meeting in the Jinjiang Hotel in Shanghai dated March 25, 1959, Mao specifically ordered the party to procure up to one third of all the grain, much more than had ever been the case. At the meeting he announced that \"When there is not enough to eat, people starve to death. It is better to let half of the people die so that the other half can eat their fill.\"[22]\nAlso, in Hungry Ghosts, Jasper Becker notes that Mao was dismissive of reports he received of food shortages in the countryside and refused to change course, believing that peasants were lying and that rightists and kulaks were hoarding grain. He refused to open state granaries, and instead launched a series of \"anti-grain concealment\" drives that resulted in numerous purges and suicides.[25] Other violent campaigns followed in which party leaders went from village to village in search of hidden food reserves, and not only grain, as Mao issued quotas for pigs, chickens, ducks and eggs. Many peasants accused of hiding food were tortured and beaten to death.[25]\nThe Great Leap Forward was a failure in other ways. Although the steel quotas were officially reached, almost all of the supposed steel made in the countryside was iron, as it had been made from assorted scrap metal in home-made furnaces with no reliable source of fuel such as coal. This meant that proper smelting conditions could not be achieved. According to a teacher in rural Shanghai:\nWe took all the furniture, pots, and pans we had in our house, and all our neighbors did likewise. We put everything in a big fire and melted down all the metal.[26]\nThe Great Leap Forward caused Mao to lose esteem among many of the top party cadres and was eventually forced to abandon the policy in 1962, while losing some political power to moderate leaders, perhaps most notably Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping in the process. However, Mao, supported by national propaganda, claimed that he was only partly to blame. As a result, he was able to remain Chairman of the Communist Party, with the Presidency transferred to Liu Shaoqi.\nMain article: Cultural Revolution\nThe Cultural Revolution was initiated by Mao in 1966 to reassert his leadership after the disasters of the Great Leap Forward which led to a loss of power to reformist rivals such as Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping. State Chairman and General Secretary, respectively, they favored the idea that Mao should be removed from actual power but maintain his ceremonial and symbolic role, with the party upholding all of his positive contributions to the revolution. They attempted to marginalize Mao by taking control of economic policy and asserting themselves politically. Mao responded to Liu and Deng's movements by launching the Cultural Revolution in 1966.\nBetween 1966 and 1968, Mao's principal lieutenants, Defense Minister Lin Biao and Mao's wife Jiang Qing, organized a mass youth militia called the Red Guards to overthrow Mao's enemies. In the chaos and violence that ensued, much of China's artistic legacy was destroyed, millions were persecuted, some of whom lost their lives. Chaos reigned in much of the nation, and millions were persecuted, including a famous philosopher, Chen Yuen. During the Cultural Revolution, the schools in China were closed and young intellectuals living in cities were ordered to the countryside to be \"re-educated\" by the peasants, where they performed hard manual labor and other work.\nMillions of lives were ruined during this period, as the Cultural Revolution pierced into every part of Chinese life, depicted by such Chinese films as To Live, The Blue Kite and Farewell My Concubine. It is estimated that hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, perished in the violence of the Cultural Revolution.[27]\nWhen Mao was informed of such losses, particularly that people had been driven to suicide, he is alleged to have commented: \"People who try to commit suicide \u2014don't attempt to save them! . . . China is such a populous nation, it is not as if we cannot do without a few people.\"[28] The authorities allowed the Red Guards to abuse and kill opponents of the regime. Said Xie Fuzhi, national police chief: \"Don't say it is wrong of them to beat up bad persons: if in anger they beat someone to death, then so be it.\" As a result, in August and September 1966, there were 1,772 people murdered in Beijing alone.[28]\nThis period is often looked at in official circles in China and in the West as a great stagnation or even of reversal for China. While many\u2014an estimated 100 million\u2014did suffer,[29] some scholars, such as Lee Feigon and Mobo Gao, claim there were many great advances, and in some sectors the Chinese economy continued to outperform the west. China exploded its first H-Bomb (1967), launched the Dong Fang Hong satellite (January 30, 1970), commissioned its first nuclear submarines and made various advances in science and technology. Healthcare was free, and living standards in the countryside continued to improve.[30][4]\nMao greets United States President Richard Nixon during his visit to China in 1972\nMao with Henry Kissinger and Zhou Enlai; Beijing, 1972.\nIn 1969, Mao declared the Cultural Revolution to be over, although the official history of the People's Republic of China marks the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976 with Mao's death. In 1972, Mao welcomed American President Richard Nixon in Beijing, signaling a policy of opening China, which was furthered under the rule of Deng Xiaoping (1978\u20131992).\nIt was during this period that Mao chose Lin Biao, who seemed to echo all of Mao's ideas, to become his successor. Lin was later officially named as Mao's successor. By 1971, however, a divide between the two men became apparent. Official history in China states that Lin was planning a military coup or an assassination attempt on Mao. Lin Biao died in a plane crash over the air space of Mongolia, presumably on his way to flee China, probably anticipating his arrest. The CPC declared that Lin was planning to depose Mao, and posthumously expelled Lin from the party. At this time, Mao lost trust in many of the top CPC figures.\nMao gave contradicting statements on the subject of personality cults. In 1955, as a response to the Khrushchev Report that criticised Joseph Stalin, Mao stated that personality cults are \"poisonous ideological survivals of the old society,\" and reaffirmed China's commitment to collective leadership.[31] But at the 1958 Party congress in Chengdu, Mao expressed support for the personality cults of people whom he labelled as genuinely worthy figures, men like Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin, \"because they hold the truth in their hands;\" and not for \"false\" personality cults of \"blind worship\".[32]\nIn 1962, Mao proposed the Socialist Education Movement (SEM) to educate the peasants . Large quantities of politicized art were produced and circulated \u2014with Mao at the center. Numerous posters, badges and musical compositions referenced Mao in the phrase \"Chairman Mao is the red sun in our hearts\" (\u6bdb\u4e3b\u5e2d\u662f\u6211\u4eec\u5fc3\u4e2d\u7684\u7ea2\u592a\u9633, M\u00e1o Zh\u01d4x\u00ed Sh\u00ec W\u01d2men X\u012bnzh\u014dng De H\u00f3ng T\u00e0iy\u00e1ng) and a \"Savior of the people\" (\u4eba\u6c11\u7684\u5927\u6551\u661f, R\u00e9nm\u00edn De D\u00e0 Ji\u00f9x\u012bng).[33]\nIn October 1966, Mao's Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung, which was known as the Little Red Book was published. Party members were encouraged to carry a copy with them and possession was almost mandatory as a criterion for membership. Over the years, Mao's image became displayed almost everywhere, present in homes, offices and shops. His quotations were typographically emphasized by putting them in boldface or red type in even the most obscure writings. Music from the period emphasized Mao's stature, as did children's rhymes. The phrase \"Long Live Chairman Mao for ten thousand years\" was commonly heard during the era.[34]\nMao Zedong\u2019s use of mass media was integral to his success. Almost immediately following the establishment of the Chinese Communist party Mao embarked on literacy campaigns, educational programs, and cultural projects throughout the entirety of China. Mandarin was proclaimed as the national spoken language and linguists were subsequently dispatched to solidify a simplified written Chinese language.[21]\nMao went to great lengths in order to ensure that his beliefs and words could find their way into the hands and minds of all Chinese people. The books Selected Works of Chairman Mao Zedong[35] or Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-Tung[36] were published by Foreign Languages Press, Peking and distributed on an almost inconceivably large scale.[37] There were entire stockpiles of the four-volume Selected works of Mao Zedong in a variety of forms. Massive amounts of the Chinese State publishing budget was used up in producing Mao-period publications in the late 1970s.[37] By the end of the ten-year-long Cultural Revolution it was noted by the national book store, Xinhua, that more than forty billion volumes of Mao\u2019s works were printed and distributed; equivalent to about 15 copies of each of Mao\u2019s books for every child, woman, and man in China.[37]\nIn 1979, internal estimates ranged that during the Cultural Revolution 2.2 billion portraits of the Chairman Mao Zedong had been produced. Such a number, in relation to the Chinese population at the time, is enough to provide three portraits of Mao to every single person in China.[37] Although character posters were not a new technique in China, the Cultural Revolution displayed a surge in rising form of mass media. The posters that were used by Mao, the Chinese Communist Party, and citizens proved to be a very effective tool.[21]\nUnder Mao\u2019s influence the various forms of Chinese arts became a venue for mass media. Along with his use of Character Posters, Mao attempted, with moderate success, to synthesize realism with folk art in an attempt to realign art with the mass origins of the Chinese people. By the 1970s many artists had been sent out of urbanized areas and into rural locations of China in order to facilitate the \u201crediscovery\u201d of Chinese origins.[21] Such art forms as opera were changed; they adapted revolutionary lyrics to pre-existing melodies. Ballet, although not of authentic Chinese culture, was changed in order to encompass revolutionary gestures and movements.[21]\nIt is evident that to Mao \u201crevolution was art; art was revolution.\u201d The effect, intended or not, of Mao\u2019s use of art as a form of mass media was one of the most effective forms of propaganda.[21]\nHaving grown up in Hunan, Mao spoke Mandarin with a marked Hunanese accent. Ross Terrill noted Mao was a \"son of the soil ... rural and unsophisticated\" in origins,[2] while Clare Hollingworth asserted he was proud of his \"peasant ways and manners,\" having a strong Hunanese accent and providing \"earthy\" comments on sexual matters.[38] Lee Feigon noted that Mao's \"earthiness\" meant that he remained connected to \"everyday Chinese life.\"[4]\nMao's private life was very secretive at the time of his rule. However, after Mao's death, his personal physician Li Zhisui published The Private Life of Chairman Mao, a memoir which mentions some aspects of Mao's private life.[23] Li's book is regarded as controversial, especially by those sympathetic to Mao.[39] According to Li, Mao never brushed his teeth, preferring to rinse out his mouth with tea and chew the leaves. By the time of his death, his gums were severely infected and his teeth were coated with green film, with several of them coming loose. Rather than bathe, he had a servant rub him down with a hot towel. Li Zhisui described him as conducting business either in bed or by the side of the pool, preferring not to wear formal clothes unless absolutely necessary.[23]\nBiographer Peter Carter noted that throughout his life, Mao had the ability to gain people's trust, and that as such he gathered around him \"an extraordinarily wide range of friends\" in his early years. He described Mao as having \"an attractive personality\" who could for much of the time be a \"moderate and balanced man,\" but noted that he could also be ruthless, and showed no mercy to his opponents.[5] This description was echoed by Sinologist Stuart Schram, who emphasized Mao's ruthlessness, but who also noted that he showed no sign of taking pleasure in torture or killing in the revolutionary cause.[1] Lee Feigon considered Mao \"draconian and authoritarian\" when threatened, but opined that he was not the \"kind of villain that his mentor Stalin was.\"[4] Alexander Pantsov and Steven I. Levine claimed that Mao was a \"man of complex moods,\" who \"tried his best to bring about prosperity and gain international respect\" for China, being \"neither a saint nor a demon.\" They noted that in early life, he strove to be \"a strong, wilful, and purposeful hero, not bound by any moral chains,\" and that he \"passionately desired fame and power.\"[3]\nIn the last years of his life, Mao was faced with declining health due to either Parkinson's disease or, according to his physician, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,[23] as well as lung ailments due to smoking and heart trouble. Some also attributed Mao's decline in health to the betrayal of Lin Biao. Mao's last public appearance was on May 27, 1976, where he met the visiting Pakistani Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto during the latter's one-day visit to Beijing.\nMao suffered two major heart attacks in 1976, one in March and another in July, before a third struck on September 5, rendering him an invalid. Mao Zedong died nearly four days later just after midnight on September 9, 1976, at age 82.\nHis body lay in state at the Great Hall of the People. There was a three-minute silence observed during this service. His body was later placed into the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong in Beijing.\nAs anticipated after Mao's death, there was a power struggle for control of China. On one side was the left wing led by the Gang of Four, who wanted to continue the policy of revolutionary mass mobilization. On the other side was the right wing opposing these policies. Among the latter group, the right wing restorationists, led by Chairman Hua Guofeng, advocated a return to central planning along the Soviet model, whereas the right wing reformers, led by Deng Xiaoping, wanted to overhaul the Chinese economy based on market-oriented policies and to de-emphasize the role of Maoist ideology in determining economic and political policy. Eventually, the reformers won control of the government. Deng Xiaoping, with clear seniority over Hua Guofeng, defeated Hua in a bloodless power struggle a few years later.\nA large portrait of Mao by Zhang Zhenshi at Tiananmen\nA highly controversial figure, Mao is regarded as one of the most important individuals in modern world history. Supporters regard him as a great leader and credit him with numerous accomplishments including modernizing China and building it into a world power, promoting the status of women, improving education and health care, providing universal housing, and increasing life expectancy as China's population grew from around 550 to over 900 million during the period of his leadership.[30][40] [41] Maoists furthermore promote his role as theorist, statesman, poet, and visionary: \"Mao had an extraordinary mix of talents: he was visionary, statesman, political and military strategist of cunning intellect, a philosopher and poet.\"[12]\nIn contrast, critics have characterized him as a dictator who oversaw systematic human rights abuses, and whose rule is estimated to have contributed to the deaths of 40\u201370 million people through starvation, forced labor, and executions, ranking his tenure as the top incidence of democide in human history.[42][43] Mao has been called \"one of the great tyrants of the twentieth century,\" and a dictator comparable to Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin,[28][44] with a death toll surpassing both.[43]\nStatue of young Mao in Changsha, the capital of Hunan\nMao was frequently likened to China's First Emperor Qin Shi Huang, notorious for burying alive hundreds of scholars, and personally enjoyed the comparison.[28] During a speech to party cadre in 1958, Mao said he had far outdone Qin Shi Huang in his policy against intellectuals: \"He buried 460 scholars alive; we have buried forty-six thousand scholars alive ... You [intellectuals] revile us for being Qin Shi Huangs. You are wrong. We have surpassed Qin Shi Huang a hundredfold.\"[45]\nAs a result of such tactics, critics have pointed out that:\nThe People's Republic of China under Mao exhibited the oppressive tendencies that were discernible in all the major absolutist regimes of the twentieth century. There are obvious parallels between Mao's China, Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia. Each of these regimes witnessed deliberately ordered mass 'cleansing' and extermination.[44]\nStatue of Mao in Lijiang\nOthers, such as Philip Short, reject such comparisons in Mao: A Life, arguing that whereas the deaths caused by Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia were largely systematic and deliberate, the overwhelming majority of the deaths under Mao were unintended consequences of famine.[12] Instead, Short compared Mao with nineteenth-century Chinese reformers who challenged China's traditional beliefs in the era of China's clashes with Western colonial powers. Short argues:\nMao's tragedy and his grandeur were that he remained to the end in thrall to his own revolutionary dreams ... He freed China from the straitjacket of its Confucian past, but the bright Red future he promised turned out to be a sterile purgatory.[12]\nMao's English interpreter Sidney Rittenberg wrote in his memoir The Man Who Stayed Behind that whilst Mao \"was a great leader in history,\" he was also \"a great criminal because, not that he wanted to, not that he intended to, but in fact, his wild fantasies led to the deaths of tens of millions of people.\"[46] Li Rui, Mao's personal secretary, goes further and claims he was dismissive of the suffering and death caused by his policies: \"Mao's way of thinking and governing was terrifying. He put no value on human life. The deaths of others meant nothing to him.\"[47]\nSculptures in front of the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong, Beijing\nIn their 832-page biography, Mao: The Unknown Story, Jung Chang and Jon Halliday take a very critical view of Mao's life and influence. For example, they note that Mao was well aware that his policies would be responsible for the deaths of millions; While discussing labor-intensive projects such as waterworks and making steel, Mao said to his inner circle in November 1958: \"Working like this, with all these projects, half of China may well have to die. If not half, one-third, or one-tenth\u201450 million\u2014die.\"[8]\nJasper Becker and Frank Dik\u00f6tter offer a similarly abysmal appraisal:\n[A]rchive material gathered by Dik\u00f6tter ... confirms that far from being ignorant or misled about the famine, the Chinese leadership were kept informed about it all the time. And he exposes the extent of the violence used against the peasants.\"[48]\nMao also gave the impression that he might even welcome a nuclear war,[49] although historians dispute the sincerity of his words, some claiming him to be \"was deadly serious,\"[50] while others say \"He was bluffing ... the sabre-rattling was to show that he, not Khrushchev, was the more determined revolutionary.\"[22].\n\"Let us imagine how many people would die if war breaks out. There are 2.7 billion people in the world, and a third could be lost. If it is a little higher, it could be half ... I say that if the worst came to the worst and one-half dies, there will still be one-half left, but imperialism would be razed to the ground and the whole world would become socialist. After a few years there would be 2.7 billion people again.\"[22]\nMao's revolutionary tactics continue to be used by insurgents, and his political ideology continues to be embraced by many communist organizations around the world. The ideology of Maoism has influenced many communists, mainly in the Third World, including revolutionary movements such as Cambodia's Khmer Rouge, Peru's Shining Path, and the Nepalese revolutionary movement.[51]\nMao's supporters claim that he rapidly industrialized China. Mobo Gao, in his 2008 book The Battle for China's Past: Mao and the Cultural Revolution, credits Mao for bringing \"unity and stability to a country that had been plagued by civil wars and foreign invasions,\" and laying the foundation for China to \"become the equal of the great global powers\".[30] However, others have claimed that his policies, particularly the controversially named 'Great Leap Forward' and the Cultural Revolution, were impediments to industrialization and modernization. His supporters claim that his policies laid the groundwork for China's later rise to become an economic superpower, while others claim that his policies delayed economic development and that China's economy only underwent its rapid growth after Mao's policies had been widely abandoned.\nA line to enter Mao Zedong Mausoleum\nIn mainland China, Mao is still revered by many supporters of the Communist Party and respected by the majority of the general population. For its part, the Chinese government continues to officially regard Mao as a national hero. In 2008, China opened the Mao Zedong Square to visitors in his hometown of central Hunan Province to mark the 115th anniversary of his birth.[52]\nHowever, Mao has many Chinese critics, both those who live inside and outside China. Opposition to Mao is subject to restriction and censorship in mainland China, but is especially strong elsewhere, where he is often reviled as a brutish ideologue. In the West, his name is generally associated with tyranny and his economic theories are widely discredited\u2014though to some political activists he remains a symbol against capitalism, imperialism, and western influence. Even in China, key pillars of his economic theory have been largely dismantled by market reformers like Deng Xiaoping and Zhao Ziyang, who succeeded him as leaders of the Communist Party.\nMao continues to have a presence in China and around the world in popular culture, where his face adorns everything from t-shirts to coffee cups. Mao's granddaughter, Kong Dongmei, defended the phenomenon, stating that \"it shows his influence, that he exists in people's consciousness and has influenced several generations of Chinese people's way of life. Just like Che Guevara's image, his has become a symbol of revolutionary culture.\"[46]\nWritings and calligraphy\nMao's calligraphy: A bronze plaque of a poem by Li Bai. (Template:Language with name\nMao was a prolific writer of political and philosophical literature.[53] He is the attributed author of Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung, known in the West as the \"Little Red Book\" and in Cultural Revolution China as the \"Red Treasure Book\" (\u7ea2\u5b9d\u4e66): this is a collection of short extracts from his speeches and articles, edited by Lin Biao and ordered topically. Mao wrote several other philosophical treatises, both before and after he assumed power. These include:\nOn Guerrilla Warfare (\u300a\u6e38\u51fb\u6218\u300b); 1937\nOn Practice (\u300a\u5b9e\u8df5\u8bba\u300b); 1937\nOn Contradiction (\u300a\u77db\u76fe\u8bba\u300b); 1937\nOn Protracted War (\u300a\u8bba\u6301\u4e45\u6218\u300b); 1938\nIn Memory of Norman Bethune (\u300a\u7eaa\u5ff5\u767d\u6c42\u6069\u300b); 1939\nOn New Democracy (\u300a\u65b0\u6c11\u4e3b\u4e3b\u4e49\u8bba\u300b); 1940\nTalks at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art (\u300a\u5728\u5ef6\u5b89\u6587\u827a\u5ea7\u8c08\u4f1a\u4e0a\u7684\u8bb2\u8bdd\u300b); 1942\nServe the People (\u300a\u4e3a\u4eba\u6c11\u670d\u52a1\u300b); 1944\nThe Foolish Old Man Who Removed the Mountains (\u300a\u611a\u516c\u79fb\u5c71\u300b); 1945\nOn the Correct Handling of the Contradictions Among the People (\u300a\u6b63\u786e\u5904\u7406\u4eba\u6c11\u5185\u90e8\u77db\u76fe\u95ee\u9898\u300b); 1957\nMao's calligraphy of his poem \"Qingyuanchun Changsha\"\nSome of Mao's most well-known poems are: Changsha (1925), The Double Ninth (1929), Loushan Pass (1935), The Long March (1935), Snow (1936), The PLA Captures Nanjing (1949), Reply to Li Shuyi (1957), and Ode to the Plum Blossom (1961).\nMao was also a skilled Chinese calligrapher with a highly personal style. His calligraphy can be seen today throughout mainland China.[54] His work gave rise to a new form of Chinese calligraphy called \"Mao-style\" or Maoti, which has gained increasing popularity since his death.\nPortrayal in film and television\nMao has been portrayed in film and television numerous times. Some notable actors include:\nHan Shi, the first actor ever to have portrayed Mao, in a 1978 drama Dielianhua and later again in a 1980 film Cross the Dadu River;[55]\nGu Yue, who portrayed Mao 84 times on screen throughout his 27-year career and won the Best Actor title at the Hundred Flowers Awards in 1990 and 1993;[56][57]\nLiu Ye, who played a young Mao in The Founding of a Party (2011);[58]\nTang Guoqiang, who portrayed Mao in more recent times, in the films The Long March (1996) and The Founding of a Republic (2009), and the television series Huang Yanpei (2010), among others.[59]\nM\u00e1o Y\u00edch\u0101ng (\u6bdb\u8d3b\u660c, born Xiangtan October 15, 1870, died Shaoshan January 23, 1920), father, courtesy name M\u00e1o Sh\u00f9nsh\u0113ng (\u6bdb\u987a\u751f) or also known as Mao Jen-sheng\nW\u00e9n Q\u012bm\u00e8i(\u6587\u4e03\u59b9, born Xiangxiang 1867, died October 5, 1919), mother.

Persistent inflammation is hypothesized to increase risk of CRC in patients with IBD; however, the few studies in this area have been restricted to cross-sectional assessments of histologic severity. No prior studies have examined association between C-reactive protein (CRP) or erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) elevation and risk of CRC in an IBD cohort.\nFrom a multi-institutional validated IBD cohort, we identified all patients with at least one measured CRP or ESR value. Patients were stratified into quartiles of severity of inflammation on the basis of their median CRP or ESR value, and subsequent diagnosis of CRC was ascertained. Logistic regression adjusting for potential confounders was used to identify the independent association between CRP or ESR elevation and risk of CRC.\nOur study included 3145 patients with at least 1 CRP value (CRP cohort) and 4008 with at least 1 ESR value (ESR cohort). Thirty-three patients in the CRP cohort and 102 patients in the ESR cohort developed CRC during a median follow-up of 5 years at a median age of 55 years. On multivariate analysis, there was a significant increase in risk of CRC across quartiles of CRP elevation (Ptrend = .017; odds ratio for quartile 4 vs quartile 1, 2.72; 95% confidence interval, 0.95-7.76). Similarly higher median ESR was also independently associated with risk of CRC across the quartiles (odds ratio, 2.06; 95% confidence interval, 1.14-3.74) (Ptrend = .007).\nAn elevated CRP or ESR is associated with increased risk of CRC in patients with IBD.\nMed Wieku Rozwoj. 2004 Oct-Dec;8(4 Pt 2):1081-9.\n[Clinical significance of erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein and serum lactate dehydrogenase levels in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment monitoring of children suffering from cancer].\nBie\u00c5\u201e E1, Balcerska A.\nErythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are non-specific biochemical markers, accompanying the growth of some neoplasms, both in adults and in children. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical value of ESR, CRP and LDH evaluation in the diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of treatment among children suffering from cancer. 100 children patients with acute leukaemia, Hodgkin\u2019s and non-Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma, nephroblastoma and soft tissue sarcoma were included in the study, being compared to 30 healthy children of the control group. In oncological patients all the markers were estimated prospectively at 5 stages or the disease, i.e.: before treatment, during treatment \u2014 in partial remission (PR) and after complete clinical remission was achieved (CR), after therapy and during the relapse or progression of cancer (PROG). The mean pre-treatment levels of analysed markers in cancer patients were significantly higher than in healthy children (p<0.001). The elevation of ESR, CRP and LDH was observed in 78.7, 50.8 and 72.1% of cases respectively. Good clinical response to antitumour therapy was paralleled with the significant decrease of pre-treatment ESR, CRP and LDH levels, but the values observed in CR, both while treatment and after therapy, did not return towards normal range. The progression of disease was accompanied by the increase of ESR, CRP and LDH levels, however only ESR and CRP values differed significantly in PROG as compared to the CR phase. Among analysed markers, only LDH level at diagnosis proved to be an independent prognostic factor for the overall survival rate. Three-year overall survival rate for patients with pre-treatment LDH level <1.5 x normal value (N) was 94% while for those with LDH >1.5 x N \u2014 67%. It has been demonstrated that ESR, CRP and LDH determinations in children suffering from cancer may serve as useful markers both in diagnostics and monitoring of the disease course. Moreover, the pre-treatment LDH level appeared to have an important role in prognosis of the overall survival rate.\nCancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2014 Jun 10. pii: cebp.0263.2014. [Epub ahead of print]\nInflammatory Biomarker C-Reactive Protein and Radiotherapy-Induced Early Adverse Skin Reactions in BreastCancer Patients.\nRodriguez-Gil JL1, Takita C2, Wright J2, Reis I3, Zhao W4, Lally BE2, Hu JJ5.\nBackground: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in American women. Post-surgery adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) significantly reduced the local recurrence rate. However, many patients develop early adverse skin reactions (EASRs) that impact quality of life and treatment outcomes. Methods: We evaluated an inflammatory biomarker, C-reactive protein (CRP) in predicting RT-induced EASRs in 159 breast cancer patients undergoing RT. In each patient, we measured pre- and post-RT plasma CRP levels using a highly-sensitive ELISA CRP assay. RT-induced EASRs were assessed at weeks 3 and 6 using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (v3.0). Association between EASRs and CRP levels were assessed using logistic regression models after adjusting for potential confounders. Results: RT-induced grade 2+ EASRs were observed in 8 (5%) and 80 (50%) patients at weeks 3 and 6 (end of RT), respectively. At the end of RT, significantly higher proportion of African Americans developed grade 3 EASRs (13.8% vs. 2.3% in others); grade 2+ EASRs were significantly associated with: change of CRP>1 mg/L (OR=2.51; 95%CI=1.06, 5.95, p=0.04), obesity (OR=2.08; 95%CI=1.03, 4.21, p=0.04), or combined both factors (OR=5.21; 95%CI=1.77, 15.38, p=0.003). Conclusion: This is the first study to demonstrate that an inflammatory biomarker CRP is associated with RT-induced EASRs, particularly combined with obesity. Impact: Future larger studies are warranted to validate our findings and facilitate the discovery and development of anti-inflammatory agents to protect normal tissue from RT-induced adverse effects and improve quality of life in breast cancer patients undergoing RT.\nCancer. 2012 Dec 1;118(23):6005-11. doi: 10.1002/cncr.27613. Epub 2012 Jun 26.\nInflammation and fatigue dimensions in advanced cancer patients and cancer survivors: an explorative study.\nde Raaf PJ1, Sleijfer S, Lamers CH, Jager A, Gratama JW, van der Rijt CC.\nInflammation may underlie cancer-related fatigue; however, there are no studies that assess the relation between fatigue and cytokines in patients with advanced disease versus patients without disease activity. Furthermore, the relation between cytokines and the separate dimensions of fatigue is unknown. Here, association of plasma levels of inflammatory markers with physical fatigue and mental fatigue was explored in advanced cancer patients and cancer survivors.\nA total of 45 advanced cancer patients and 47 cancer survivors completed the subscales Physical Fatigue and Mental Fatigue of the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory. Plasma concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1-ra), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and neopterin were measured. Nonparametric tests were used to assess differences in fatigue intensity and levels of inflammatory markers and to determine correlation coefficients between the fatigue dimensions and inflammatory markers.\nCompared with cancer survivors, patients with advanced cancer had higher levels of physical fatigue (median 16 vs 9, P < .001) and mental fatigue (median 11 vs 6, P = .01). They also had higher levels of all cytokines (P < .01). In advanced cancer, CRP (r = 0.49, P = .001), IL-6 (r = 0.43, P = .003), IL-1-ra (r = 0.32, P = .03), and neopterin (r = 0.25, P = .10) were correlated with physical but not with mental fatigue. In cancersurvivors, only IL-1-ra was related to both physical fatigue (r = 0.24, P = .10) and mental fatigue (r = 0.35, P = .02).\nIn advanced cancer, inflammation seems to be associated with physical fatigue, but not to mental fatigue. In cancer survivors, there was no convincing evidence that inflammation plays a major role in fatigue.\nJ Pathol. 2008 Jan;214(2):149-60.\nTNF-mediated inflammatory disease.\nTNF was originally described as a circulating factor that can cause necrosis of tumours, but has since been identified as a key regulator of the inflammatory response. This review describes the known signalling pathways and cell biological effects of TNF, and our understanding of the role of TNF in human disease. TNF interacts with two different receptors, designated TNFR1 and TNFR2, which are differentially expressed on cells and tissues and initiate both distinct and overlapping signal transduction pathways. These diverse signalling cascades lead to a range of cellular responses, which include cell death, survival, differentiation, proliferation and migration. Vascular endothelial cells respond to TNF by undergoing a number of pro-inflammatory changes, which increase leukocyte adhesion, transendothelial migration and vascular leak and promote thrombosis. The central role of TNF in inflammation has been demonstrated by the ability of agents that block the action of TNF to treat a range of inflammatory conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, inflammatory bowel disease and psoriasis. The increased incidence of infection in patients receiving anti-TNF treatment has highlighted the physiological role of TNF in infectious diseases.\n2007 Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland\nTNF-alpha as a therapeutic target in inflammatory diseases, ischemia-reperfusion injury and trauma.\nEsposito E1, Cuzzocrea S.\nTumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a central regulator of inflammation, and TNF-alpha antagonists may be effective in treating inflammatory disorders in which TNF-alpha plays an important pathogenetic role. Recombinant or modified proteins are an emerging class of therapeutic agents. To date, several recombinant or modified proteins which acts as TNF antagonists have been disclosed. In particular, antibodies that bind to and neutralise TNF have been sought as a means to inhibit TNF activity. Inhibition of TNF has proven to be an effective therapy for patients with rheumatoid arthritis and other forms of inflammatory disease including psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, inflammatory bowel disease. Additionally, the efficacy of preventing septic shock and AIDS has been questioned as a result of recent research. The currently available therapies include a soluble p75 TNF receptor:Fc construct, etanercept, a chimeric monoclonal antibody, infliximab, and a fully human monoclonal antibody, adalimumab. Certolizumab pegol is a novel TNF inhibitor which is an antigen-binding domain of a humanized TNF antibody coupled to polyethylene glycol (PEG) to increase half-life, and thus is Fc-domain-free. In this review, we discuss briefly the present understanding of TNF-alpha-mediated biology and the current therapies in clinical use, and focus on some of the new therapeutic approaches with small-molecule inhibitors. Moreover, we examine recent reports providing important insights into the understanding of efficacy of thalidomide and its analogs, as TNF-alpha activity inhibitories, especially in therapies of several inflammatory diseases within the nervous system.\nEvaluating cytoplasmic and nuclear levels of inflammatory cytokines in cancer cells by Western blotting.\nGatla HR1, Singha B, Persaud V, Vancurova I.\nIncreased expression and cellular release of inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-8 (IL-8; CXCL8), and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) are associated with increased cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and metastasis during cancer progression. In prostate and ovarian cancer cells, increased levels of IL-8 and HMGB1 correlate with poor prognosis. We have recently shown that proteasome inhibition by bortezomib (BZ) specifically increases IL-8 release from metastatic prostate and ovarian cancer cells. In this chapter, we describe a protocol to analyze the cytoplasmic and nuclear levels of IL-8 and HMGB1 in prostate and ovarian cancer cells by western blotting. IL-8 is localized in the cytoplasm in both cell types, and its protein levels are significantly increased by BZ. In contrast, HMGB1 is localized in the nucleus, and BZ increases its nuclear levels only in ovarian cancer cells. The protocol includes isolation of cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts, followed by SDS electrophoresis and western blotting, and can be easily modified to analyze the cytoplasmic and nuclear cytokine levels in other cell types.\nMed Oncol. 2014 Jul;31(7):22. doi: 10.1007/s12032-014-0022-8.

In this study, we evaluate the value of pre- and post-operative plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer levels and changes in the levels of the two markers between before and after operation in predicting tumor recurrence and metastasis in NSCLC patients who undergoing radical surgery. One hundred and eighty-four patients with I-IIIA NSCLC were enrolled in this study, and plasma fibrinogenand D-dimer levels were measured in these patients before and after surgery, respectively. The results showed that pre- and post-operative plasmafibrinogen and D-dimer levels were significantly higher in NSCLC patients than in control group. Pre- and post-operative plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer positivities were significantly correlated with tumor recurrence (P = 0.020 and P = 0.001 for fibrinogen, and P = 0.027 and P = 0.001 for D-dimer). Moreover, there was a significant link between the decrease in fibrinogen and D-dimer levels after surgery and tumor recurrence (P = 0.014 and P = 0.018). Patients with pre- and post-operative fibrinogen and D-dimer positivities had a shorter disease-free survival (DFS) than those without (P = 0.002 and P < 0.001 for fibrinogen, and P = 0.003 and P = 0.001 for D-dimer). Multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that pre- and post-operative fibrinogen and D-dimer positivities were independent predictors for unfavorable DFS. Our results indicate that pre- and post-operative plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer levels may be useful biomarkers in predicting tumor recurrence and metastasis for patients who undergo curative surgery.\nDr. Weeks\u2019 Comment: Everyone is now acknowledging the role of inflammation in cancer yet few doctors know how to test how inflamed you are!

        "raw_content": "In the two earlier parts of this series here and here, I had talked about various aspects of smart energy. In this part, I will look into smart energy and convergence devices and will touch a little bit on consumer awareness.\n7. How about a more advanced use case?\nThat brings me to my favorite topic \u2013 convergence devices. It is very easy to foresee a remote application that will interface with the backend platform and help you control your electrical appliances through your convergence device. A very appropriate example is to have a smart energy iPhone Application, right?\nHere is another use case. Suppose that your laptop or your mobile device has a zigbee radio and an energy management stack running. You could potentially set the application up such that when you step out of the house, your mobile device \u2018loses contact\u2019 with the gateway. The gateway then realizes your absence and sets the devices in your home in \u2018hibernate\u2019 or \u2018absent\u2019 mode. This may include a much lower thermostat setting, automatically turning off your humidifier or your ice-machine. Cool, eh?\n8. What part should the consumer play? Will this be thrust on us?\nWell, like I mentioned earlier, this is very much a part of the \u2018green\u2019 initiative. But its implementation will be successful and pervasive only when there is a win-win situation for the consumer and the utility company. While the utility company and the value chain will seek to monetize smart energy, they will have to ensure that the consumer will also benefit. The ideal situation will be for the industry to give back to the consumer rather than merely benefit from his/her philanthropic nature. So the consumer, in his part, should make sure that the utility company does not take him/her for a ride and that there is a value proposition for all parties.\nRemember that \u2018Smart Energy\u2019 is not just another gimmick by the corporate world, but is for a noble cause. In my mind, it is also an awareness tool that demonstrates how you and I can contribute our little something to Mother Nature. It is to be seen how the entire chain will come together to define the value proposition to the consumer.\nIn the next part of this series, I will talk about why the utilities companies will want to implement smart energy.\nI recently started this Frequently Asked Questions series on Smart Energy. Here is the second part of the series -\n4. How does the energy company communicate with the user?\nThere are two main components that help the energy company achieve its objectives.\nSmart energy gateway: This is typically connected to your broadband connection and serves as an access point for the energy companies to talk to you. In the future, we may have carriers providing zigbee-enabled gateways for the user to have a single device that provides broadband also communicates with your energy company.\nIn-house Display: This is essentially the smart-energy equivalent of a mobile phone. This wireless device can be a kitchen-top device or a device attached to your refrigerator. The gateway can communicate raw data to the device which can process and provide information for the consumer to assimilate. Examples of such information include peak hours, rates, usage, usage projections etc.\n5. How are the devices controlled?\nA rudimentary model would be to assume that once the information is provided, the user will use his discretion to manually turn off devices. A more advanced model would be to provide control features in the display either through buttons or touch-screens. The control information is the stimulus for the gateway to communicate with the intelligent or smart devices installed in your house.\n6. That is in-house control. How about remote control?\nThis is where the usage model gets more interesting. The energy company may use the back-end platform it uses to communicate through the gateway to perform a multitude of other functions. The most logical thing to do is to provide a web interface through which the user can monitor the information passed on to the display. Additionally, he/she can also control the actions of the gateway. Hence you have a remote monitor and control mechanism in place.\nWe have, so far in this series, reviewed Infineon\u2019s financials, Qimonda and the industrial and automotive businesses. As we continue to dissect Infineon in our valuation analysis, we will now take a look at its wireline business.\nInfineon\u2019s play in wireline communications is based on the convergence of data, voice and video in a single network and the resulting demand for high quality electronics. The company offers broadband solutions for central office and customer premises equipment (CPE). The company\u2019s product lines include xDSL, 2G/3G wireless infrastructure and Ethernet solutions.\nAccording to Gartner, Infineon held the fourth position for application-specific wireline ICs in 2006, with 5.6% market share. The company was also fourth in the wireline access network IC segment with about 15% market share. The German chipmaker further strengthened its position by acquiring TI\u2019s CPE business in the fourth quarter of 2007. Infineon hopes to leverage TI\u2019s customer base and carrier deployments to become the ADSL market leader.\nWhile Infineon is a leading player in wireline communications, competition and the market make it difficult for it to achieve disruptive growth here. As an example, for the company to sustain long term in the customer premises equipment market, it needs to watch out for disruptive technologies and applications that can be integrated into such equipment. Femtocells, or indoor base stations, are good examples. Another relevant but more \u2018down the road\u2019 example is the integration of a smart-energy gateway used to monitor and control customer site energy consumption.\nIn the next part of the series, we will look at Infineon\u2019s wireless play, which complements its wireline communications business. As we will see, wireless is the growth driver Infineon is relying on.\nLabels: Infineon, Qimonda, Sramana Mitra\nSometime in 2006, I was in my favorite Starbucks location next to the TensorComm office in Colorado ordering my usual drink, \"Double Tall, Extra Hot, Non-fat, no foam Latte!\" I was proud of my concoction because I thought this very closely resembled my mother's coffee.\nNow, my boss started chuckling and asked me if I had read George Carlin's new rules for 2006. I had not. I got back to my desk and checked it out and could not help bursting in laughter at what I saw. One of his rules read -\n\"..The more complicated the Starbucks order, the bigger the a** hole. If you walk into a Starbucks and order a \"decaf grande half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gingerbread cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n'-Low and one NutraSweet,\" ooh, you're a huge a** hole...\"\n\"I am not that big an a** hole, but I still am one, \" I thought to myself. Since then, I have often reflected on some of my idiosyncrasies and have consciously tried to improve myself. Of course, I should thank my boss for it. But George Carlin and his subtle message have certainly had a lasting effect on my life.\nYesterday, the comedian known for boldly pointing out such human follies and absurdities passed away due to a heart failure. I pray that his soul rests in peace.\nLabels: George Carlin\nWe recently evaluated Infineon\u2019s financials and the negative impact Qimonda has had on it. While it is facing difficulties offloading its Qimonda stake, the German chipmaker has done well in its two business segments. Let us take a quick look at the Industrial and Automotive business in this part.\nThe main products of this segment include power semiconductors, sensors and microcontrollers, silicon discretes, chip card and security ICs. Infineon\u2019s ICs are used in power trains, body and convenience features such as air conditioning in your car, its safety features such as ABS, airbags and stability control, and its infotainment aspects. Industrial applications include power management and supplies, power generation and distribution, and industrial control. Customers include Avnet, Bosch and Siemens.\nMarket research firm Semicast reported that Infineon is the leader in the industrial segment ahead of STM and Renesas. Semicast estimates that Infineon has about 7.5% of the $20 billion industrial market. Further, this market is expected to grow to $33 billion in 2013 presenting Infineon with a good growth driver. Strategy Analytics ranks Infineon as the second largest supplier of ICs for automotive applications worldwide with about 9% market share. Additionally, Infineon is number one in the power semiconductors market with 6% share in 2006 according to an IMS research report.\nDriven by the strong demand for energy efficient solutions, the industrial and automotive business will stay healthy. The company expects healthy growth rate in the industrial segment primarily based on its leadership position in power applications. It also hopes for roughly stable sales within its automotive business based on its ability to provide complete high quality semiconductor solutions integrating power, analog, mixed signal IC and sensor technology.\nLike Semicast\u2019s Colin Barnden notes, the challenge will be to hold on to the leadership position in the face of increased competition. The uncertain economy will make the stable industrial and automotive segment very attractive for semiconductor companies. The segment thus presents a good opportunity for Infineon subject to competitive risks. For the moment, I am willing to give Infineon the benefit of doubt that it will at least continue to maintain its market share here if not grow it modestly.\nIn the last part of this series, we looked at Infineon\u2019s recent financials and pointed out that Qimonda is a key reason why the company is struggling to create more shareholders\u2019 value. Let us now take a deeper look into Qimonda\u2019s challenges and Infineon\u2019s strategic initiatives to address the situation.\nThe picture below, taken from Infineon\u2019s fiscal 2007 annual report, illustrates the root cause of Qimonda\u2019s misery.\nThe DRAM prices dropped a whopping 29% in fiscal 2007 led by seasonal demand weakness, inventory build-up prior to the Windows Vista launch and capacity conversion from NAND to DRAM by the competition. The 44% increase in shipments and the continuing market diversification strategy were not enough to stave off these challenges leading to a net sales decrease of 207 million Euros in 2007.\nDespite these issues, the DRAM business requires Qimonda to invest heavily in its research and manufacturing capabilities. In 2007, Qimonda announced plans to build new manufacturing facilities in Singapore and Malaysia. It also announced an agreement with SanDisk to jointly develop and manufacture Multi-chip Packages. Additionally, the company hopes to leverage its product and market diversification strategy to increase DRAM average selling prices (ASPs), profitability and return on capital.\nLast week, Qimonda and Elpida, both top-5 DRAM suppliers, signed final contracts for a strategic technology partnership on joint development of DRAMs. Primarily a move to gain scale, this agreement encompasses a broad cross licensing of Intellectual Property that gives both companies higher design freedom while aligning their development interests. Elpida\u2019s CEO is also quoted as saying that he was open to a share swap with Infineon.\nInfineon wants to get out of the memory business. It announced recently that it wants to reduce its current 78% stake in Qimonda to below 50% by the 2009 Annual General Meeting. While not many will pay cash for this stake, share swaps with companies like Elpida may help constrict the supply and stem the free-fall in DRAM prices. With private equity unlikely to pick up Qimonda due to its unattractive cash flow, such share swaps may be the unfortunate reality that Infineon has to face today.\nIn summary, Infineon is unlikely to relieve itself of the memory business overnight. The huge write-off in the last quarter demonstrates that the company has realized this hard fact. It will have to swallow more losses despite its valuable R&D and manufacturing capabilities. From a valuation perspective, Qimonda will continue to have a considerable negative impact on Infineon\u2019s share price.\nIn the first part of this series, I presented an overview of the company\u2019s various business segments. With that as the background, let us look into the company\u2019s recent financials.\nFor the fiscal year ending September 30, 2007, Infineon reported net revenues of 7682 million Euros at a gross margin of 20.7% and operating loss of about 3.5%. This is a decrease of 3% from the 2006 revenues of 7929 million Euros. The gross margin for 2006 was 26.2% while the corresponding operating loss was about 3.4%. Much like its European competitor STM, Infineon is also struggling well behind the industry average gross margin of 50.5% and operating margin of 18.6%.\nThe automotive and industrial business segment contributed 39% of the revenue while the communications segment accounted for about 14%. Qimonda, the struggling subsidiary producing memory chips, contributed close to 50% of Infineon\u2019s 2007 revenues. Almost one third of Infineon\u2019s products are consumed within Europe while Asia-Pacific accounts for another third.\nMuch of Infineon\u2019s woes are tied to the struggling Qimonda. The commoditization of memory chips has caused their prices to fall considerably. While the cost of owning and operating memory fabs is high, the RoI is just not there due to unfavorable market conditions. Severely impaired in its ability to generate shareholder value, Infineon recently declared its interest in Qimonda as \u2018assets held for sale.\u2019 To give more clarity on its core business, the company will now report revenues only from its continuing operations. The potential gains or losses due to the change in the fair value of Qimonda will be reported as discontinued operations. In accordance with this practice, the company wrote off 1.3 billion Euros last quarter.\nIn the recent quarter that ended March 31, 2008, the company reported net revenues of 1049 million Euros from its core segments. This is an increase of 7% from the corresponding quarter in 2007. The gross margin for the quarter was 35% while the operating margin was about 4.5%.The Qimonda write-off in the balance sheet demonstrates the quandary that Infineon is in. It wants to dilute its stake in Qimonda and get out of the memory business. But apparently, the loss-making subsidiary does not have many takers. Infineon\u2019s handling of Qimonda in the next few years will be an important component of any valuation analysis. It will hence be illustrative to take a look at this relationship in the sequel.\nWe have, over the past year, presented detailed valuation theses for various mobile chipset vendors namely Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Broadcom, InterDigital, Marvell and STMicroelectronics. This matrix will not be complete without Infineon \u2013 the German Chipmaker.\nInfineon shot to the spotlight in the wireless world as it was discovered to be at the heart of the sensational first generation iPhone. I also think that Infineon will continue to hold this socket in the 3G iPhone to be released on July 11th. I am betting that Infineon\u2019s XMM6080 platform and its PMB8878 chip (formerly known as S-GOLD3H and now marketed as X-GOLD608) will be in Apple\u2019s darling product that was announced amidst much fanfare and expectations recently.\nWhile the iPhone has been Infineon\u2019s public face around the world for the last year or so, its business interests are much broader spanning automotives, industrial applications, and memory among others. The company was founded in the summer of 1999 as a wholly owned spinoff of Siemens AG following the latter\u2019s huge losses in the fiscal year 1998. Infineon Technologies AG was listed as an IPO on the Frankfurt and New York Stock Exchanges in 2000. Today, iSuppli ranks Infineon 10th in the list of worldwide semiconductor suppliers.\nThe company is broadly divided into three business segments \u2013\nAutomotive, Industrial and multimarket segment designs, develops and manufactures and markets semiconductors and complete system solutions for automotive, industrial, security applications and customer-specific applications. The continuing demand for high power products for industrial applications, increased sales of energy efficient products and an increased demand for government ID applications are attributed as growth drivers for this segment.\nThe Communication segment offers a range of ICs, other than semiconductors and complete system solutions for wireline and wireless communication applications. Wireless chipsets are a mainstay of this unit. Beaten up over the past two years by the insolvency of BenQ\u2019s German subsidiary, the company is trying to recoup by building its IP and product base mainly through acquisitions. Besides Apple, Infineon phone platform customers include ZTE, Panasonic and LG.\nQimonda was legally separated from Infineon in May 1, 2006 into a stand-alone company manufacturing memory products. This segment has been Infineon\u2019s Achilles\u2019 heel from the day one. In fact, Infineon\u2019s inception was forced because memory price erosion led to a $674 million pre-tax loss posted by Siemens Semiconductor in 1998. Even in 2007, a drastic 29% decrease in DRAM prices hurt Infineon\u2019s prospects. The German chipmaker, realizing this bottleneck is starting to dilute its ownership in Qimonda.\nWith this brief overview of the company, we will look at the company\u2019s financials, business segments, strategy and valuation in the sequels.\nLabels: Infineon, iPhone\nForgive me for the barrage of posts, but I feel it would be better to put my thoughts down here before they either become obsolete or irrelevant (or both.) So here are a few more points to think about.\nFirstly, AT&T is subsidizing the iPhone for us. This means that AT&T is paying Apple for the iPhone. Some estimates run up to an extra $200. Apple, in turn, has given up its cut from AT&T service contracts (contrary to my earlier speculation here). AT&T has increased the data plan by $10. So, the total cost of the new 8GB iPhone will still be $199+$240 = $439 for a 2-year contract. But most consumers will look at this increase as a premium that they will pay for 3G. For them, the bottomline will be that they are getting a very cheap iPhone at $199. VentureBeat has a nice post on this topic here.\nThe second point I wanted to make was on the 3G comparision demo. Apple showed that the iPhone was 36% faster than two competing 3G phones. I posted that this may reflect the capabilities of the modem design. As it turns out, that theory is not bullet-proof. In response to Om Malik's question on AT&T's 3G network capabilities, the company's mobility chief, Ralph de la Vega said that he is confident of being able to deal with the demand. Further, he said \" We have a maximum throughput of 3.6 Mbps and soon it will be 20 Mbps. The core of the network is going to run faster as well.\" This piece escaped my earlier analysis. If the AT&T network currently runs at a maximum of 3.6 Mbps, then an advanced receiver in the iPhone (that supports up to 7.2 Mbps) should have minimal impact on the results. So, now I am left wondering where, if outside of the US, Apple captured this demo that shows the improvement in performance? Or, as unlikely as it seems, are the OS and the browser really making that much of a difference?\nI will post more thoughts as I think through this further. Perhaps, I will consolidate these observations into a single post in the future. Until then, I hope you find these tidbits and commentary useful.\nLabels: Apple, ATT, iPhone\nThe 3G iPhone is here. Well, almost here! Steve Jobs announced the latest avatar of the iPhone in his WWDC keynote today. Unfortunately for the users and technology enthusiasts, the phone is not out until July 11th. In any case, let us quickly look at the tidbits thrown at us during Steve's talk.\nThe 8GB 3G iPhone will indeed come with the $199 price tag. Other models are also lower cost than before. This is perhaps an industry changing move by Apple which has sought to bring smartphones to the mass market. It has, in the process, also shed the exclusivity tag that accompanies most of its products. The $199 tag is likely below the phone's manufacturing cost. So, it looks like AT&T is subsidizing it for us. Besides, I am sure that Apple will make money through the plethora of applications that are lined up for the iPhone apart from the AT&T service contract itself. Essentially, there seems to be a change in its iPhone business model. Apple, while choosing volume over margin with this move, will have to be cautious not to repeat Motorola's mistakes with the highly successful yet unprofitable Razr line of phones.\nThe 3G iPhone will be GPS-enabled. This clearly puts gadgets like Garmin's Nuvifone at a disadvantage. The phone also boasts good battery life. It has 5 hours of 3G talk-time, 5 to 6 hours of data browsing, 7 hours of video, 24 hours of audio. Not to mention the highly anticipated enterprise support that will have RIMM gritting its teeth.\nOLD: This is the old version of the paragraph. I have updated this with more accurate information and have it below. Please read that......[The 3G data speed demo gave clues about the iPhone's modem capabilities. Steve showed that the iPhone was about 36% faster than the Treo 750 and the Nokia N95. The caveat is that these popular phones are based on slower WCDMA and are not HSDPA-enabled. For the uninitiated, WCDMA stands for Wideband Code Division Multiple Access and is the 3G migratory path for GSM carriers. HSDPA stands for High Speed Data Packet Access (HSDPA) and is a higher speed data optimized evolution of WCDMA. So, while not being a fair comparison, it demo showed that the iPhone supports HSDPA. I would personally have wanted to see how the iPhone performed against other HSDPA phones. That would have given me a better metric to evaluate the modem and also obtain clues about the baseband supplier.]\nUPDATED: The 3G data speed demo gave clues about the iPhone's modem capabilities. Steve showed that the iPhone was about 36% faster than the Treo 750 and the Nokia N95. Nokia's N95 is HSDPA-capable. Palm also unlocked the Treo 750 to support HSDPA. (I am still a little hazy about the Treo specs. and would welcome additional information that you can provide me on this.) For the uninitiated, HSDPA stands for High Speed Data Packet Access (HSDPA) and is a higher speed data optimized evolution of 3G. So, Discounting any improvements provided by the OS and the browser, the demo suggests that the iPhone has a higher capability HSDPA receiver. A friend suggests that the difference in performance may be because the N95 uses a category 6 HSDPA receiver capable of download speeds upto 3.6 Mbps. The iPhone looks to be having a Category 8 receiver capable of 7.2 Mbps. This does give me clues about the baseband supplier. While multiple vendors including Qualcomm and InterDigital have Category 8 receivers, this comparison gives me more confidence that Infineon's X-GOLD-608 is central to the 3G iPhone.\nThe $199 tag is great news to me. I was looking to get the iPod Touch and a GPS device anyways. I will wait for my Sprint contract to expire and quickly grab one of these from an Apple store. I am not alone. All colleagues and friends I talked to today are quite bouyant. People who don't have the 2G iPhone are waiting for July 11th. Those who paid a high premium for the previous iPhone are still willing to trade theirs for a newer, sleeker and faster big brother. The 10 million iPhone target will now be a rather conservative estimate.\nIn summary, the keynote confirmed rumors that a lot of imagined were outrageous. The $199 iPhone is the mother of all deals and is bound to put other smartphone makers in a spot while giving great leverage to AT&T.\nLabels: 3G, Apple, ATT, iPhone\nThe 3G iPhone is expected to launch soon at the WWDC. One of the primary component winners likely is Infineon. The company\u2019s cellular chipset is expected to drive the iPhone. As we wait for the teardown, I was asked by a good friend how we would know if IDCC is in the iPhone. He specifically wanted me to address the issue with respect to the latest IFX 3G product announcements. Here is my take on it.\nFirstly, IDCC will get licensing fees from Apple as per agreements signed last year. The agreement covers 2G and 3G iPhones to be sold in the near future. So, irrespective of whose 3G components are in the iPhone, IDCC gets money from Apple.\nSecondly, there will be money coming if Infineon\u2019s 3G baseband is in the iPhone. In light of the recent product announcements by Infineon, I need to be careful when I make that statement. So, let me step back and reflect on the impending 3G iPhone. I wrote in the past that I expect to see the MP-EH platform with the S-GOLD3H baseband chip in the 3G iPhone. The company has rechristened its products since. The HSDPA capable MP-EH platform is now the XMM 6080 while its 3G baseband chip - PMB8878 - previously known as the S-GOLD-3H (H indicating HSDPA capability) is now the X-GOLD 608. Read more on this subject here and here.\nFurther, the 3G software stack that will be used in the MP-EH/S-GOLD3H combination was jointly developed by InterDigital and Infineon\u2019s subsidiary Comneon. So, IDCC will get per-unit royalty from Infineon for use of the stack. While the software collaboration is public, I am inclined to speculate based on recent modem performance data that IFX 3G chips use some baseband receiver design IP from IDCC. This can be an additional source of per-unit royalty for IDCC.\nRecently, Infineon announced an array of X-GOLD61x HSDPA/HSUPA products that drastically reduce on power and space apart from catering to multiple phone market segments. Furthermore, the company also announced specifically that the stack for the X-GOLD61x solutions is internally developed. While this announcement gives more design control to Infineon, it implies that IDCC will not receive per-unit royalties for the software stack on the 61x series. On the other hand, I am still bullish (read speculation) about the use of IDCC\u2019s physical layer receiver IP in all of Infineon\u2019s 3G offerings. Also, while I think these new products are part of Infineon's push to hold on to Apple for future designs in the face of increasing competition, I would be greatly surprised if I see any of these 61x chips in the first 3G iPhone.\nIn summary, look to see if the iPhone teardown reveals Infineon\u2019s PMB8878/X-GOLD 608/S-GOLD-3H baseband. So, the best case scenario for IDCC is for the iPhone to have a heart of Gold! Even otherwise, the King of Prussia-based company will gain from Apple\u2019s licensing fees.\nWe are less than a week off from the Apple Worldwide Developer's Conference 2008 (WWDC) in which the 3G iPhone is expected to make its debut. I have, over the past year, covered the 3G iPhone in great detail. As we head to the WWDC, I thought it will be nice to compile my iPhone predictions about some component suppliers. Take them for what they are - just predictions!\n3G Baseband: Infineon will be at the heart of the iPhone. The Infineon 3G chip will have a software stack that is jointly developed with InterDigital. The King of Prussia-based InterDigital is also likely to have a good portion of the baseband IP if my guess is right. I am basing this last speculation on the performance of the IFX chipsets in recently conducted tests.Essentially, InterDigital will earn a per-chip royalty for the software stack and possibly for the baseband IP. For more details on the 3G baseband supplier analysis, I will direct you to my article here.\nApplication Processor: Samsung will perhaps continue to own this part. Marvell has an outside chance.\nWLAN: For platform stability issues, I will bet on Marvell grabbing this socket again. Broadcom may spring a surprise with its WLAN-BT-FM integrated solution.\nBluetooth: If WLAN belongs to Marvell, CSR, which is in the current iPhone, will likely own the Bluetooth socket again.\nGPS: The next generation will have GPS and it will likely belong to Broadcom. This was recently ratified by a GigaOm report.\nTouchscreen: Broadcom\nI cannot hypothesise on other components. But if I were to guess, I will bet on Apple retaining most existing suppliers. While I have been talking about these component suppliers for around a year now, some of these predictions may appear matter-of-fact to readers today. In any case, now that I have put it all in a list, let us see what my hit-rate is!\nLabels: Apple, BroadCom, CSR, Infineon, Interdigital, iPhone, marvell\nWith Nokia and InterDigital (IDCC) engaged in a prolonged legal battle over licensing issues, the title of this article is sure to raise more than a few eyebrows. I think that recent industry events make this an interesting but overlooked possibility. Here is why \u2013\nThe IDCC-NXP connection: NXP has licensed IDCC\u2019s 3G HSDPA ASIC design for its PNX6712 chip. The companies entered into this agreement for integration into NXP\u2019s Nexperia cellular chipsets as early as August 2005. Talking about this during InterDigital\u2019s 1st quarter 2008 conference call, its CFO Scott McQuilkin said, \u201cWe also completed our delivery of HSDPA technology to NXP and ASIC is now moving into production.\u201d\nThe NXP-STM connection: STM and NXP entered into a JV last month merging their wireless businesses to acquire scale. You can read my extensive coverage of this event here and here. The formation of a solid number three player stints IDCC\u2019s abilities to sell its SlimChip solution directly. But in the bigger scheme of things, it spells good news for the King of Prussia-based company as the JV widens its footprint. In the most recent quarter conference call, IDCC\u2019s CEO William Merritt resonated this point saying, \u201cFrankly we looked at the combination of ST Micro and NXP and said, \u2018Great, they\u2019re getting stronger and they have our IP\u2019 and we love our licensees to be strong and pushing hard into the market..\u201d\nThe STM-Nokia connection: Nokia last year decided on a multi-vendor sourcing strategy. It now sources 3G from both TI and STM. Additionally, it also transferred about 200 chipset design engineers to STM. This not only signals Nokia\u2019s move away from chipset design, but also presents STM with the opportunity to grab more 3G business at Nokia. It is devoting R&D resources to baseband design and NXP\u2019s team and product are an active part of the equation.\nThe performance conundrum: Data communication necessitates a better receiver design. Despite the design resources from Nokia, STM will take time to build a competitive solution on its own. On the other hand, the design that NXP has licensed from IDCC is one of the top-performing receivers today. Nokia cannot afford to lag in 3G performance especially considering its high-end mobile market competitors have good solutions. Samsung sources from Qualcomm and Infineon while Apple is expected to have an Infineon chipset in its impending 3G iPhone. So, for the moment, the IDCC design seems to be the most accessible \u2018best\u2019 3G solution for Nokia.\nIn summary, as STM continues its 3G ramp up, it may use NXP\u2019s design in its platform in the short-term. IDCC, by virtue of its license agreement with NXP, will directly benefit from this move. What is more, this will give IDCC a chance to be part of Nokia phones. Now, that begs another question. Are IDCC and Nokia factoring this in their licensing discussions?\nLabels: HSDPA, Interdigital, Nokia, NXP, ST Microelectronics, STM\nIn the last part of this series, I looked at the contrasting manufacturing strategies of STM and NXP. In this concluding piece, I will look at their product decisions, more specifically with respect to the wireless analog trade-off.\nWireless: With Nokia and EMP sourcing from multiple vendors, TXN\u2019s strategy of using their baseband along with its application processor and RF modules for the mobile platform seems to have backfired. It has not pursued a 3G baseband product strategy and is hence in danger of losing its market share.\nSTM, on the other hand, has infused substantial R&D into baseband development as it revamps its product lineup. Nokia transferred its chipset design team to STM late last year. The Italian company has also created a JV merging its wireless business with that of NXP. NXP brings with it, complementary wireless connectivity solutions and a suite of baseband products (including 3G.) STM now has all the components to build mobile platforms for 3G and beyond and can compete effectively against Qualcomm and Broadcom.\nSo, while TXN appears to be losing its grip on wireless, STM has emerged as a strong player with the backing of the European handset vendors who command around 50% of the worldwide market. STM seems to be benefiting from its geopolitical alignment and is well-positioned to supplant TXN from its second position in wireless.\nAnalog: TXN has made the conscious decision to aggressively pursue analog as part of its strategy to maximize margins. The analog semiconductor leader understands that a substantial portion of the analog TAM still remains for it to tap into. The High Performance Analog (HPA) segment has been TXN\u2019s champion growth driver. This segment, generating around 40% operating margins has grown at an average of 28% over the past two years. The analog business overall has grown by 11% over the same period. STM, on the other hand, has not focused as much on its analog business as it could. If it makes the right acquisitions, it can grow its analog share too.\nIn summary, the two companies have identified different niche areas to focus for growth despite directly competing in multiple markets. The strategic directions are meant to capitalize each company\u2019s strengths. For STM, it is the geopolitical clout it carries with the European wireless players. TXN, on the other hand, is becoming a more nimble manufacturer by the day. It hopes to leverage this to dip further into the HPA market. Finally, while STM is looking to create more value through higher revenue, TXN\u2019s value proposition comes from its impressive margins.\nLabels: analog, ST Microelectronics, STM, TI\nMarvell followed up a strong quarter by shaking up its management team. The company, it seems to me, is taking pains to demonstrate that the bad times are behind it.\nThe company has a new CFO in Clyde Hosein who starts on June 23rd. Clyde brings about 25 years of finance and operations related experience in technology industries. Clyde replaces George Urioste who was Marvell's interim CFO since January 2008. George takes over as the acting COO to relieve Pantas Sutardja. Pantas will now focus on his role as the company's CTO.\nWeili Dai, wife of CEO Sehat, is back in the executive team as the VP sales for the Marvell's communications and consumer business unit. Weili resigned as the company's COO last year due to stock backdating issues. She was relegated to a non-executive Director's role until the issue was resolved. As she and the company agreed to pay fines related to the SEC charges, Weili was presented with the opportunity of taking up an executive role again. The CEO wasted no time in executing on this opportunity praising Weili for her \u201cgreat business acumen, strategic thinking and endless passion\u201d while offering her the new role.\nSehat also seems to assure his employees that the bad times are over for Marvell as he mentioned this in a note to them - \"Weili and I also want to take this opportunity to\nthank all of you for your loyalty and support over the past 18 months. This has been a\nchallenging time for Marvell - and for us personally - and we truly appreciate your continued trust and all of your hard work.\u201d\nMaybe the bad times are indeed over. The company has had a good quarter, has demonstrated its commitment to expense management, has the stock backdating issue behind it, has good mobile products and design wins lined up, and has a full-fledged executive team in place. Let us wait and see if it is able to maintain this momentum.\nLabels: marvell\nApple is expected to announce the 3G iPhone this month. Based on a reasonable set of assumptions, I have speculated that Infineon will continue to be at the heart of the iPhone. Clues that ratify this scenario have also been uncovered in the recent months. Recently, however, there were two industry events that made many question this theory. Here, I will take a look at these events and what they signify for the iPhone.\nFirstly, Sehat Sutardja, Marvell\u2019s CEO, had this to say in the company\u2019s F1Q09 conference call \u2013\n\u201cDuring the first quarter we achieved what I believe to be a very important milestone as we began volume shipments of our HSDPA communication processor to a key smartphone customer. We expect a steady ramp to high volume production throughout the remainder of the year.\u201d\nWith the name of this \u2018key smartphone customer\u2019 not revealed, Apple and iPhone immediately got tagged to this remark. To me, the matter-of-fact statement appeared to reflect Marvell\u2019s continuing relationship with RIMM.\nThe latest Blackberry Bold 9000 features Marvell\u2019s Tavor platform. Tavor is a single-chip solution that combines a HSDPA baseband processor with a 624 MHz applications processor. The timelines of the Bold launch and Marvell\u2019s shipment dates seem to corroborate as well. The RIMM angle, coupled with the difficulty in launching and testing a new platform with Marvell for the existing form-factor iPhone makes me believe that the Santa Clara-based company will not displace Infineon in Apple\u2019s darling phone.\nI will, however, not dismiss the possibility of Apple launching a second, smaller form-factor 3G phone with Marvell\u2019s solution. Marvell\u2019s Tavor may be ideal for a low-cost phone from Apple. The single chip will eliminate the need for a separate application processor. It will save space and power. Hence, it (or any single chip solution for that matter) will be a preferred solution a low-cost iPhone, if there is one. I also anticipate that Marvell will be able to bundle Tavor with its WiFi solution giving it a price advantage. So, in the eventuality of two iPhone models being launched, it is possible that both Infineon and Marvell have design wins at Apple.\nThis brings me to the other iPhone related news \u2013 the Infineon warning. The German company recently warned that it has received lower than anticipated orders for a project to supply HSDPA chips. Going with the premise that Infineon is indeed the 3G supplier for the iPhone, it is hard to tell if this warning pertains to Samsung or Apple or another customer. If it is for Apple, then, contrary to what is being written elsewhere, I don\u2019t think it signifies any major delay in the anticipated launch of the 3G iPhone.\nThis may, however, signal one of two things. The first possibility is that Apple may not market the 3G iPhone as widely as anticipated (at least initially.) The second possibility, which ties up with the Apple angle to the Marvell statements is product mix. Apple may be planning on a staggered, complementary launch of two 3G iPhone models. This, in turn, could be the reason behind the lower volumes shipped by Infineon and the perceived secrecy associated with Marvell\u2019s \u2018key smartphone customer.\u2019\nIn summary, I think Infineon will be in the 3G iPhone. While I feel that Marvell\u2019s statements pertain to RIMM, I also see the company as a very good candidate for a second iPhone design that may also launch soon.\nLabels: 3G, Apple, Infineon, iPhone, marvell",

        "raw_content": "WNBA: Youth Has Served Washington Well to Send Mystics to Three Straight Playoff Appearances\nWASHINGTON -- Natasha Cloud\u2019s memorable 2015 is about to get better as she prepares for her first taste of playoff action when the fourth-seeded Washington Mystics meet the top-seeded New York Liberty Friday night at Madison Square Garden in the first game of a best of three Eastern Conference semifinal.\nThe game starts at 7:00 p.m. on NBA-TV.\nThis will be the team\u2019s third straight trip to the playoffs under the leadership of general manager and head coach Mike Thibault.\nIt is also the first playoff meeting between the Liberty and Mystics since a thrilling 2002 Eastern Conference final series won in three games by New York.\nCloud made an immediate impact on the Mystics success this season.\nWith the Saint Joseph\u2019s product leading her rookie class and finishing second on the team in assists per game (3.4), the Mystics set franchise records for most assists in a season (606), assists averaged in a game (17.82) and most assists in a game (30) against the San Antonio Stars on July 31.\nOther franchise records for the Mystics this season included fewest turnovers in a game (five) against the Chicago Sky on August 2 and most blocked shots per game (4.8).\nCloud led the Mystics in assists in 13 games this season which included a career high 11 in their matchup against the Los Angeles Sparks on September 3.\nHer court vision and play-making ability will be crucial as she\u2019ll be matched against experienced guards Tanisha Wright out of Penn State and Epiphany Prince out of Rutgers during the next few days.\n\u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to Friday night,\u201d Cloud said Sunday afternoon following the Mystics regular season finale against the Dream. \u201cWe just have to put all of the pieces together.\n\"It\u2019s been a surreal feeling to be able to contribute this season. We have to stick to what we do best as a team if we\u2019re going to get past New York.\u201d\nDuring the season, Cloud handed out at least five assists in a game seven times.\nOne of her best stretches of basketball was during the Mystics five-game winning streak in late July where she had 28 assists against one turnover.\nThat\u2019s a pretty impressive number even for a seasoned veteran, but for a rookie to do that says something special about the six-foot Cloud, who started 22 games and averaged 19.3 minutes.\nCloud, a Cardinal O'Hara grad from Broomall, Pa., in the Philly western suburbs also demonstrated her Delco toughness when she had a tooth knocked out of her mouth during a game against Seattle.\nShe missed a few minutes of game action, but eventually returned to the contest.\nCloud, who has been thankful to contribute and play a critical role in the Mystics success this season, is one of the few players who have played every game since arriving in D.C. after being picked in the second round.\nWashington is still relatively young as it features seven players who have three or fewer years of experience.\n\u201cWe\u2019re the youngest team in our conference in the playoffs,\u201d Thibault said. \u201cSo hopefully playing in some of these (close) games we\u2019ve played in this season will help prepare our young ones.\n\"It\u2019s a little scary sometimes as a coach to look out there and see four players out there with three years or less of experience. Then you\u2019re looking at teams that have had players play in the WNBA Finals and know how to do that.\u201d\nThe Mystics rookie class of 2013 \u2013 Emma Meesseman, Tayler Hill and Tierra Ruffin-Pratt \u2013 had standout seasons this year.\nMeesseman was the only player for the second consecutive year to start in all 34 regular season games.\nAn All-Star, Meesseman finished second on the team in scoring with 11.6 points per game and first in rebounds with 6.3 per game along with three doubles-doubles.\nShe posted a career high 24 points in the Mystics matchup against the Tulsa Shock on June 19.\nHill posted a career high of her own with a 20 point performance against Connecticut on August 9. She saw action in 32 games this season and finished fifth on the team in scoring (7.5 points per game). She scored in double figures nine times this season.\nRuffin-Pratt started in 31 out of 32 games played and also had a career high performance scoring 20 points in their victory over the Los Angeles Sparks on June 23.\nA candidate for all-defensive team, Ruffin-Pratt averaged 23.9 minutes per game and 7.4 points per game in the regular season.\n\u201cThat\u2019s part of the growing up process,\u201d Thibault said. \u201cYou have to go through it to be prepared and be better at it.\n\"I hope that last year\u2019s playoff experience will help Emma, Stef and TRP be more prepared. I remember going through that at Connecticut with young players. You just have to go through it a couple of times. Now we may be more ready for it now than we were a year ago.\u201d\nHill played sparingly in last year\u2019s playoff series against Indiana.\nRuffin-Pratt left Game Two early with a shoulder injury in a contest the Mystics dropped in overtime.\nSecond-year players Bria Hartley and Stefanie Dolson, both UConn products, saw significant action against the Fever in last season\u2019s playoff series.\n\u201cThe last two years we have been in the playoffs but, we have not gone as far as we\u2019ve wanted to,\u201d Dolson said. \u201cWe want the team to go far this year.\n\"With the chemistry we have as a team, we are excited for the playoffs and we know we can do well as long as we play our game. I think we are all just ready and anxious for practices and the games to start.\u201d\nThe Mystics will have a full roster heading to New York.\nKara Lawson, who missed the final eight regular season games, is expected to play.\nShe\u2019ll be able to provide leadership and experience along with Ivory Latta, the Mystics\u2019 leading scorer at 11.2 points per game. Latoya Sanders and Arminite Herrington also provide experience for the Mystics.\nThe second game of the series will be at the Verizon Center Sunday afternoon at 1:00 p.m. The game will be televised on ESPN with Pam Ward and Carolyn Peck on the call and LaChina Robinson reporting.\nIf a third game is needed, it will be back in New York on Tuesday night on ESPN2.\n\u201cPlayoff basketball is completely different than the regular season,\u201d Dolson said. \u201cIt is more physical. The stars on each team are going to be on the ball way more. We just have to be ready and go in mentally prepared for what they are going to throw at us. We just have to be focused on every possession.\u201d\nSimran Ahuja said...\nRenu.co.in Delhi escort agency for VIP peoples.",

        "raw_content": "Home Uncategorized Israel Calls on UN to Restore its Peacekeepers to Syria Border\nIsrael Calls on UN to Restore its Peacekeepers to Syria Border\nIsrael has asked the United Nations to reinstate its Disengagement Observer Force on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights border, outgoing Northern Command Chief of Staff Brig. Gen. Asher Ben-Lulu has confirmed to Israel Hayom.\nUNDOF peacekeepers were first deployed on both sides of the Golan Heights border in 1974 as part of the Separation of Forces Agreement between Israel and Syria after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Under the agreement, UNDOF is the only force authorized to be in the buffer zone, and its role is to monitor the military presence of both sides near the border.\nHowever, UNDOF abandoned two-thirds of its border positions on the Syrian side four years ago, after 45 Fijian peacekeepers were kidnapped by members of the al Qaida-affiliated Nusra Front. Seventy-two other Filipino UNDOF troops were trapped but managed to escape.\nEver since the withdrawal, UNDOF troops have largely been stationed on the Israeli side of the Golan Heights border, where they report to the U.N. on the movement of IDF forces. One small UNDOF stronghold stayed in territory that remained under Syrian President Bashar Assad\u2019s control.\nWith Assad\u2019s forces having regained control of the Syrian Golan Heights, Israel wants UNDOF to return to the Syrian side of the border. To this end, Israel has asked the United Nations to increase the number of troops in the region from 1,000 to between 1,200 and 1,300.\nIsrael is also looking to open the Quneitra border crossing from time to time.\nWhile Syria and Israel do not maintain diplomatic ties, the Druze population in the Israeli Golan Heights has been able to transport its apple harvest to the Syrian market with the assistance of the International Committee of the Red Cross. Apple-growing is the chief livelihood for the Druze residents of the Golan Heights.\nIn the past, many Druze students crossed the border to attend college in Damascus, a practice that ended in 2012 as a result of the civil war.\nWhile Jerusalem authorized the transport of apples across the border in an effort to help the Druze population reduce its surplus produce, Damascus did so in an effort to demonstrate it still retains sovereignty over the Israeli side of the Golan Heights and the 20,000-strong Druze population living there.\nPrevious articleDating Forum: All Out of Love?\nNext articleYIW Hosts High School Summer Kollel",

        "raw_content": "Episodes and Video\nCleaver Greene\nBrilliant, iconoclastic and innately self-destructive, Cleaver Greene is one of life's great addicts. Whether it's women, gambling or drugs, Cleaver can resist everything except temptation. His other addiction is the law - defending those who seem to be beyond redemption - society's hopeless: our sex offenders, our murderers, our cannibals. If only Cleaver would realise the stark reality that he, himself, is perhaps the most hopeless case of all. If only he'd occasionally defend and protect himself - but he doesn't. He has a mind-numbing lack of discretion and a total inability to pause before speaking his mind.\nSo, like the original butterfly on the pond, he has a knack for creating chaos - be it in court before a judge or holding court in a restaurant, be it in a brothel or a casino, be it with his ex-wife, his son or his best friend.\nAs charming and as irresistible as Cleaver Greene is, when you let him into your world, be warned, trouble is his plus one.\nRichard Roxburgh is one of Australia's most esteemed stage and screen actors, and his feature film directorial debut Romulus, My Father was the highest grossing Australian film of 2008. Richard's stage directing experience includes an adaptation of Tim Winton's That Eye The Sky, which earned him a Sydney Theatre Critics' Circle Award (STCCA). He was lauded for his performance in Michael Gow's play, Toy Symphony, for Belvoir Street, and Ray's Tempest, which is based on his own original idea, opened in May 2005 to critical acclaim. His many other stage roles include Hamlet in Neil Armfield's 1994 production for which he received a STCCA, and Lenny in Pinter\u2019s The Homecoming for which he received the 1992 STCCA. In 2010 Richard starred in the title role in the STC's Uncle Vanya, which won him his fourth Sydney Theatre Critics' Circle Award for Best Actor. This production toured to the Kennedy Centre in Washington DC, and was named the best play of the year by Washington Post critic Peter Marks. This adaptation toured as part of the Lincoln Centre Festival in New York in July 2012.\nRichard's film credits include Moulin Rouge, Fragile, Van Helsing, Mission Impossible II, Oscar & Lucinda, Thank God He Met Lizzie, Children of the Revolution, and for his role in Doing Time for Patsy Cline, Richard received the 1997 Film Critics' Circle of Australia and Australian Film Institute (AFI) awards for Best Actor.\nRichard\u2019s television credits include BBC TV's The Hound of the Baskervilles and the miniseries False Witness, The Road from Coorain, and The Silence. He played the notorious Roger Rogerson in ABC TV's highly controversial 1995 miniseries Blue Murder and Cleaver Greene in Rake Series 1 for which he received a Silver Logie award. He garnered critical acclaim for his portrayal of the Australian Prime Minister in the telemovie Hawke.\niview RSS Feeds",

Insurance premiums have remained stable throughout the year with no signs of them increasing significantly in the near future as insurers look to retain their market share.\n\"We've seen a steady stream of enquiries throughout the year, largely coming from recommendation and increased marketing activity including our headline sponsorship of AeroExpo \u2013 the UK's largest aviation exhibition held in May\".\nAs well as aviation, Alan & Thomas specialise in commercial insurance and risk management advice for a wide range of business sectors and are the only independent broker in Dorset to have been awarded prestigious Chartered Insurance Broker status from the Chartered Insurance Institute.\nFor more details, please contact Julian Boughton on 01202 754900.",

        "raw_content": "Court Rebuffs State, Lets Battery Recycler Stay Open and Test for Neighborhood Pollutants\nAny feelings of relief were short-lived for neighbors of the Exide Technologies battery recycling plant in the middle of Los Angeles County when the state Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) ordered the facility closed in April after the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) ordered the company to reduce arsenic emissions.\nExide appealed to the Los Angeles County Superior Court\u2014arguing the arsenic stuff was already taken care of and other accusations were just political posturing\u2014and was allowed to stay open pending a hearing on the claims.\nA statement (pdf) by Brian Johnson, DTSC\u2019s deputy director of hazardous waste management program, probably didn\u2019t make the residents of Vernon feel any better. \u201cWe want to bring assurance to the community that if contaminants from the facility are in their yard, Exide will clean them up,\u201d he wrote on Tuesday about a testing program Exide was ordered to undertake.\nBeginning this week, the company will collect soil and dust samples in nearby neighborhoods for a month in anticipation of a court hearing later in the year on a possible plant closure.\nThe DTSC ordered the shutdown after reports showed that the plant\u2019s \u201cunderground hazardous waste-degraded pipelines are out of compliance with California's stringent hazardous waste requirements, and are releasing toxic metal-bearing water and pose a risk to the environment.\u201d The AQMD said the plant posed an elevated cancer risk to 110,000 nearby residents.\nExide, one of the world\u2019s largest battery recyclers, filed for bankruptcy in June. The company struggled with the price of scrap lead and problems with its European operations, which account for 51% of its revenue. Walmart also ditched Exide as its exclusive battery supplier in 2010.\nThe Vernon plant has been in operation since 1922 and currently melts down up to 40,000 batteries a day. Until recently, the great concern has been about the plant\u2019s lead emissions. But AQMD had been hunting since 2010 for the source of high levels of arsenic it detected in the area. It took two years to point a finger at Exide for what it considered an elevated risk of cancer to nearby residents.\nThe state\u2019s Toxic Hot Spots program, initiated under Assembly Bill 2588 in 1987, requires sources of pollution to notify the public if the calculated health risk to humans is 10 in 1 million or more. If the risk is 25 in 1 million or more, the facility has three years to come up with a solution.\nExide\u2019s calculated risk is 156 in 1 million.\nThe search for lead contamination could lead to two nearby schools, San Antonio Elementary in Huntington Park and Salazar Park Head Start in East L.A.\nExposure to lead causes permanent brain damage and about half a million American children have too much of it in their system. Lead lowers IQs, causes learning disabilities and has been linked to criminal behavior. It has also been linked to stunted growth, seizures and a range of maladies.\nExide to Begin Testing for Dangerous Metals Buildup in Neighborhood (by Jessica Garrison, Los Angeles Times)\nExide\u2014International Battery Maker and Accused L.A.

Like any other products, the razor blades are not made the same, and that means that it is your job to know all about the one that you are buying before you do. Your skin and whiskers are also unique, and the best razor blade for me may not be the best for you. There will be so many of the choices out there, brands with all those attractive packaging and this means that it is important that you know what to consider out there.\nHow effective the razor blades are, the safety and even the life span are among the things that are determine by the quality, which is a good place to start. The last thing that you need is a razor blade that leaves you all brand, uncomfortable and annoyed. These are things that a skin friendly, a razor blade that is not a counterfeit and one that can be adjusted doesn\u2019t come with. Your skin type and the hair level are among the things that will determine the kind of features that you need. The quality, in most cases, goes hand in hand with the prices and this is why you should stay away from the bids that look too good to be true because they probably are. This however doesn\u2019t mean that you blow so much in the name of getting a great quality, and instead you should be looking for a company that offers the best at a fair price.\nEvery time that you are shopping for anything, it is good to look at what the people that have used it say about the products and the company\u2019s services. The company is looking ftp sell and will therefore tell you all and only attractive things about the razor blade, but the people that have used the products have nothing to lose or gin and will therefore tell of all the cons and the pros. There are sites that do the research for you where you can get the recommendations and the reviews, and then there are the sites reviews. It is also important that you try on a variety of the brands and the types, do determine what works best for you. There is also the customer services and the legitimacy of the products that are determined by the seller, which makes them important.\nNext: Next post: What Has Changed Recently With ?",

Gazelle Finance, a U.S. investment fund manager, has launched investment operations in Armenia targeting investments in high growth small and medium enterprises.\nWorking through its subsidiaries Gazelle Finance targets small and medium enterprises in the South Caucasus, Eastern Europe and Central Asia regions offering financing in US$100,000 to $1.0 million range per investment.\nGazelle Finance CEO Jeffrey Liebert said today that the Fund\u2019s investment product is specifically designed for high growth emerging markets with economies that are trending towards an upper-middle income level.\nThe main shareholders of the Fund are U.S. government\u2019s Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) and the Dutch Development Fund (FMO).\nUS Ambassador to Armenia Richard Mills noted that about $80 million will be available in the form of loans. He said the initiative to support small and medium-sized businesses was launched by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), and today it is supported by OPIC, which holds one third of the Fund.\nIn his turn, Armenian Minister of Economic Development and Investments Artsvik Minasyan said\nOPIC projects adhere to high environmental and social standards and respect human rights and by mandating high standards it aims to raise the industry and regional standards in countries where it funds projects.\n\"We are starting a new and important process in our economy: there is no economic development and achievements without social involvement and respect for the environment,\" the minister said. He also expressed confidence that the arrival of Gazelle Finance to Armenia will be an incentive for the introduction of new management standards.\nOPIC, established in 1971, mobilizes private capital to help address critical development challenges, and in doing so, advances US foreign policy and national security priorities.\nThe Dutch Development Fund (FMO) is the International Development Bank of that country.

        "raw_content": "18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is going to be revealed to us. 19 For the creation eagerly waits with anticipation for God\u2019s sons to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility \u2014 not willingly, but because of him who subjected it \u2014 in the hope 21 that the creation itself will also be set free from the bondage to decay into the glorious freedom of God\u2019s children. 22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together with labor pains until now. 23 Not only that, but we ourselves who have the Spirit as the firstfruits \u2014 we also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. 24 Now in this hope we were saved, but hope that is seen is not hope, because who hopes for what he sees? 25 Now if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with patience.\n26 In the same way the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, because we do not know what to pray for as we should, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with unspoken groanings. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because he intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.\n28 We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; and those he called, he also justified; and those he justified, he also glorified.\nWhat we see in this portion of Romans 8 is that all of Creation waits and anticipates the coming glory that will be experienced when all things are fully united with God. Our hope in Christ for the future is the main source of our daily joy. Our hearts and minds should be stirred to excitement when we think of the glory and perfection we\u2019ll experience when united with Christ. Here, life can be hard and we grow tired. But when we\u2019re finally with Christ we\u2019ll experience true rest for the first time ever. When we are united in glory we will enjoy full and final victory, temptation will end forever, and joy will be the constant emotional state we live in. Paul\u2019s excitement for eternity motivated his daily joy and he\u2019s encouraging the church in Rome, and us, to share in that excitement.\nToday, really think about how amazing it will be to one day experience no sense of struggle or suffering. That is the reality that you as a Christian will live in for eternity.\nBut don\u2019t just dream of the future and forget the present. Let the promise of future glory and perfection be the driving force behind your daily efforts to follow Jesus now.\nFather, give me a true picture of what eternity will look like. Fill me with anticipation and excitement for the future that motivates me to worship you in the present.",

The Woodruff Arts Center, which oversees the ASO, demanded and received $5.2 million in cuts in 2012, which included reducing the orchestra\u2019s season to 41 weeks from 52. Stanley Romanstein, the ASO\u2019s president, assured the players that would never happen again. But Romanstein resigned last month, and the Woodruff leaders say that they were not aware of any such promise.",

        "raw_content": "Home\u00bbWhat to Do\u00bbWalls of \u00c1vila\nFOR PROBLEMS OF SNOW AND ICE THE WALL WILL REMAIN CLOSED UNTIL NEW NOTICE\nThe walls are the image that is unmistakably associated with the town of \u00c1vila and they were the main reason, together with the Romanesque churches, why the UNESCO included the town on its list of World Heritage Sites in 1985. This impressive defence construction has a perimeter of 2516 m, 87 turrets and 9 gates and the walls of \u00c1vila are the best-conserved example of their kind in the world. Tourists should not leave the town without going up to the allure of the walls or walking around its perimeter. Visitors can today walk along 1700 m of the allure and there are four entrance points, one of which is suitable for the disabled.\nThe Middle Ages provided the stage for the construction of the city walls more or less as we know them today, with a perimeter of approximately 2.5 km and the actual walls, towers and main gates. They were built during the 12th century, but the mediaeval city had always been protected by walls. The population gradually found its place inside and outside the walls, forming suburbs around the parish churches that were built in the Romanesque style of architecture during periods of intense development. Other buildings were also interrelated with the walls, as is the case of the Alcazar. These buildings either found their place as an actual part of the walls, such as the upper end of the Cathedral, or were built on the inside face, as is the case of the Bishop's Palace. During the Middle Ages, the defence constructions were altered and repaired as a result not only of the wear and tear that affected buildings of such characteristics and size, but also of the progress that was made and new developments in warfare.\nAlthough we do not have details of its construction or the names of those who took part in it, it was probably built by Christian and Mudejar workers. The Mudejar builders are thought to be responsible for the angled-brick friezes and the brickwork that finishes off much of the north and west sides of the walls, as well as the brick arches that provide access to the turrets in the same area.\nThe walls were maintained by the council and the municipal offices included a works supervisor for the walls. A document published by Seraf\u00edn de Tapia describes how the maintenance work was shared out: the knights and noblemen were responsible for the watch, citizens kept vigil, the peasants repaired the allure, cleaned the moats and carried the material that was necessary while the Moors provided the labour and the Jews provided the iron; these minority groups were also obliged to keep vigil.\nVisitors can see how the walls and turrets were constructed to suit the lie of the land. The south sides are lower owing to the natural gradient on which they are built, while the west and north are stronger and the east side is the most developed. This was necessary to strengthen the town's defences in the area where it was most accessible. Consequently, it was where the alcazar was built, the two gates were reinforced and became the strongest (those of El Alcazar and San Vicente) and a defence system comprising a moat and barbican was set up in front of the walls.\nVisitors to the walls will discover the nine gates that provide access to the interior the Gates of El Alc\u00e1zar, El Peso de la Harina, San Vicente, El Mariscal, El Carmen, El Adaja, La Malaventura, La Santa or Montenegro and El Rastro. Each one has its own function and design. The variety can also be seen in the battlements that finish off the walls and turrets, despite the fact that they all look the same.\nThe walls have reached modern times reasonably well-conserved, but a great deal of refurbishment work has been necessary. Most of such work has been carried out correctly and, regardless of limitations, it has been important for their current condition and appearance. Maintenance work has been carried out regularly since the walls were built, but it has been intensified in recent decades to turn the defence construction into a tourist attraction.\nThe walls can be accessed at three places: House of Las Carnicer\u00eda (next to the apse of the Cathedral), Gate of El Alcazar and Gate of El Puente (this section is open to visitors). There is also a fourth exit at the Gate of El Carmen.\nThe walls have always formed part of local \u00c1vila life and of visits to the town and a good number of cultural events take place around it. The most important include the following:\nTheatre on the walls (from the end of June to the beginning of September)\nThe Ronda de las Leyendas (Legends on the Allure, first weekend of June)\nMediaeval Days (first weekend of September)\nPoetry on the Allure\nFor more information, please visit the website on the walls at:\nOfficial Website of the Wall",

        "title": "BATS Magazine Article: Saving Our Free-tailed Bats",
        "raw_content": "By Tuttle, Merlin D.\nTHE MEXICAN free-tailed bat ranks among North America's most ecologically and economically important animals, yet this species appears to be in alarming decline. In the early 1960s, the colony in Eagle Creek Cave, Arizona, consisted of 25 to 50 million free-tails; six years later, it had declined to less than 30,000. The famous Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico, colony, estimated to contain 8,700,000 in 1936, had fallen as low as 218,000 by 1973. Other major declines are reported, though most free-tail caves have not been censused in many years.\nPesticides were a contributing factor in the dramatic decline at Eagle Creek Cave. These bats fed over nearby agricultural areas where many dead and dying bats were observed, and it is documented that sick free-tails in Arizona contained dangerous levels of DDT and its metabolites. Chemical pesticides have also been implicated at Carlsbad. Studies have shown that these bats feed heavily on agricultural pests and thus are exposed to toxic chemicals. Stored in fatty tissues, toxins are released when the bats metabolize fat during migration, or as they learn to fly.\nDespite the contribution of pesticides to the decline of these bats, many researchers have concluded that human disturbance and vandalism of key roosting sites are by far the most serious causes of decline. Eagle Creek Cave is easily accessible, and the cave entrance is littered with gun shell casings. The Carlsbad population also likely suffered when a shaft was bored through the hole of the main roosting area to accommodate guano mining in the early 1900s.\nBut what happens to the bats once they migrate south for the winter is of even greater concern. In a recent BCI-sponsored study, Arnulfo Moreno visited the 10 largest over-wintering caves known in Mexico and found that half had declined 95 to 100 percent [BATS, Summer 1991]. There were no bats at all in one that had been home to many millions. Human disturbance and intentional burning, which may have killed millions of bats at a time, were clearly the cause.\nSuch enormous mortality has been caused by building fires in the entrances to free-tailed bat overwintering caves. Fueled by old tires and gasoline, these blazes not only can trap millions of bats inside, but also leave a toxic coating which may prevent recolonization. Fires are often set by phosphate miners who want to work year-round, but fear working in caves with bats present. Other caves are dynamited shut in misguided attempts to control vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus), though such approaches always cause far more harm than good [BATS, Spring 1991].\nEnsuring the survival of large populations of free-tails throughout their range is a high conservation priority for BCI. This summer, Ambassador Robert Pringle, Director of the Office of Terrestrial Ecology and Conservation at the U.S. State Department, hosted a special meeting in Washington, D.C. at which Merlin Tuttle and freetailed bat expert Gary McCracken explained the plight, needs, and values of free-tailed bats to 15 representatives from appropriate federal agencies. This will be followed by a special State Department initiative and meeting in Mexico City on October 24 to consider collaborative efforts between our two countries on behalf of these important animals.\nJust because free-tailed bat colonies still number in the millions doesn't mean we shouldn't be concerned. The examples of the passenger pigeon and the American bison should be reminder enough that even vast numbers of animals can disappear. The time to be concerned is now-before they become endangered.",

        "raw_content": "Table of Contents > Allergies > Immune response\nAlso listed as: Immune system, Humoral immune response, Cell-mediated immune response, Innate immunity, Adaptive immunity\nAllergen, allergens, allergic, allergic reaction, allergic response, antibodies, antibody, antigen, B-cells, bacteria, bone marrow, complement, Ig, IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, IgM, immune, immune defense system, immune reaction, immune system, immunoglobulin, immunoglobulin A, immunoglobulin D, immunoglobulin E, immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin M, infection, inflammation, lymph nodes, passive immunity, spleen, T-cells, thymocytes, thymus glands, virus, viral infection, white blood cells.\nThe immune response is a defensive reaction against harmful substances, such as viruses or bacteria, which enter the body. The immune response helps protect the body from disease, infection, and cancer.\nThe immune system is a complex network of cells, proteins, tissues, and organs in the body that work together to fight off harmful substances and disease-causing microorganisms, called pathogens.\nThe immune system is also responsible for allergic reactions. An allergic reaction occurs when the body overreacts to substances called allergens, which are normally harmless in healthy individuals. For instance, if the immune system mistakes substances, such as pollen, fungus spores, parasites, or animal dander, for a harmful invader, the body will launch an attack. This reaction causes allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and hives.\nIf the immune system is not functioning properly, individuals are more susceptible to diseases, infections, and cancers. This is because the immune system is the body's first line of defense against these conditions. Some patients may be born with immune disorders, such as Nijmegen breakage syndrome. Others may acquire immune disorders, such as HIV, later in life.\nSome individuals may develop autoimmune system disorders, which cause the immune system to be overactive. Autoimmune disorders occur when the immune system attacks the body's cells because they are mistaken for harmful invaders, such as bacteria. These disorders can destroy body tissues, cause abnormal organ growth, and/or impair organ function.\nThe immune response can be broken down into two major parts: the humoral immune response and cell-mediated response. The humoral immune system involves proteins called immunoglobulin antibodies that help signal immune cells to destroy harmful substances that enter the body. The second part of the immune system, called cell-mediated immunity, involves white blood cells that destroy foreign invaders in the body. There are several different types of white blood cells that have important roles in the immune response, including B-cells and T-cells.\nDalhousie University. .\nKaneko Y, Hirose S, Abe M, et al. CD40-mediated stimulation of B1 and B2 cells: implication in autoantibody production in murine lupus. Eur J Immunol. 1996 Dec;26(12):3061-5. .\nSnappper CM, Shen Y, Khan AQ, et al. Distinct types of T-cell help for the induction of a humoral immune response to Streptococcus pneumoniae. Trends Immunol. 2001 Jun;22(6):308-11 .\nGinseng: For more than 2,000 years, the roots of this slow-growing plant have been valued in Chinese medicine. Several studies suggest that ginseng can effectively enhance immune system function.\nAvoid ginseng with a known allergy to plants in the Araliaceae family. There has been a report of a serious life-threatening skin reaction, possibly caused by contaminants in the ginseng formulation.\nZinc: Zinc formulations have been used since ancient Egyptian times to enhance wound healing. Zinc appears to be an essential trace element for the immune system, but there is little research on the effect of zinc supplementation on immune function and most studies focus on patients with specific diseases. Zinc gluconate appears to exert beneficial effects on immune cells, improving CD3 and CD4 counts and increasing CD4/CD8 ratios in children. There are relatively few studies that examine zinc levels and the effects of zinc supplementation on the health of the elderly population. Further research is needed before a firm conclusion can be made.\nZinc is generally considered safe when taken at the recommended dosages. Avoid zinc chloride, since studies have not been done on its safety or effectiveness. While zinc appears safe during pregnancy in amounts lower than the established upper intake level, caution should be used because studies cannot rule out the possibility of harm to the fetus.\nArginine (L-arginine): L-arginine helps maintain the body's fluid balance, fights infection, and aids in wound healing, hair growth, sperm production, and blood vessel relaxation. Preliminary research results suggest that arginine supplementation may enhance the immune response elicited by the pneumococcal vaccine in older people. More studies are needed to confirm these results.\nAvoid if allergic to arginine. Avoid with history of stroke, liver disease, or kidney disease. Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding. Use cautiously if taking blood-thinning drugs (like warfarin) and blood pressure drugs, herbs, or supplements with similar effects. Check blood potassium levels.\nAstragalus: In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), astragalus is commonly found in mixtures with other herbs. Astragalus has been suggested as an immune system stimulant in preliminary laboratory and animal research, and in traditional accounts. Reliable human studies are lacking. High quality human research is necessary before a firm conclusion can be drawn.\nAstragalus has been suggested as an immune system stimulant in preliminary laboratory and animal research and in traditional accounts. There are published reports from China of white blood cell counts increasing during the use of astragalus preparations, although details are limited. Reliable scientific study has not been conducted in this area. High-quality human research is necessary before a firm conclusion can be drawn.\nAvoid if allergic to astragalus, peas, or any related plants or with a history of Quillaja bark-induced asthma. Avoid with aspirin, aspirin products, or herbs or supplements with similar effects. Avoid with inflammation (swelling), fever, stroke, transplant, or autoimmune diseases (such as HIV/AIDS). Stop use two weeks before surgery/dental/diagnostic procedures with a risk of bleeding and avoid use immediately after these procedures. Use cautiously with bleeding disorders, diabetes, high blood pressure, lipid disorders, or kidney disorders. Use cautiously with blood-thinners, blood sugar drugs, diuretics, or herbs and supplements with similar effects. Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding.\nBeta-carotene: Beta-carotene is a member of the carotenoids. They are naturally found in many fruits, grains, oil, and vegetables (such as green plants, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, spinach, apricots, and green peppers). Preliminary research of beta-carotene for immune system maintenance or stimulation shows mixed results. Further research is needed before a conclusion can be drawn.\nCat's claw: Cat's claw is widely used in the United States and Europe, and it is one of the top herbal remedies sold, despite a lack of high-quality human evidence. In Germany and Austria, cat's claw is only available by prescription. A few early studies suggest that cat's claw may boost the immune system. However, results from different studies have not agreed with each other. Further research is needed before a firm conclusion can be made.\nAvoid if allergic to Cat's claw or Uncaria plants or plants in the Rubiaceae family such as gardenia, coffee, or quinine. Avoid with a history of conditions affecting the immune system (such as AIDS, HIV, some types of cancer, multiple sclerosis, tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis, or lupus). Use cautiously with bleeding disorders or history of stroke, or if taking drugs that may increase the risk of bleeding. Stop use two weeks before surgery/dental/diagnostic procedures with bleeding risk, and do not use immediately after these procedures. Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding. Cat's claw may be contaminated with other Uncaria species. Reports exist of the potentially toxic Texan grown plant Acacia gregii being substituted for cat's claw.\nCopper: Copper is a mineral that occurs naturally in many foods including vegetables, legumes, nuts, grains, and fruits, as well as shellfish, avocado, beef, and animal organs such as the liver and kidney. Copper is involved in the development of immune cells and immune function in the body. Severe copper deficiency appears to have side effects on immune function, although the exact mechanism is unclear.\nAvoid if allergic/hypersensitive to copper. Avoid use of copper supplements during the early phase of recovery from diarrhea. Avoid with hypercupremia, occasionally observed in disease states including cutaneous leishmaniasis, sickle-cell disease, unipolar depression, breast cancer, epilepsy, measles, Down's syndrome, and controlled fibrocalculous pancreatic diabetes (a unique form of secondary diabetes mellitus). Avoid with genetic disorders affecting copper metabolism, such as Wilson's disease, Indian childhood cirrhosis, or idiopathic copper toxicosis. Avoid with HIV/AIDS. Use cautiously with water containing copper concentrations greater than 6mg/L. Use cautiously with anemia, arthralgia, and myalgia. Use cautiously if taking oral contraceptives (birth control pills). Use cautiously if at risk for selenium deficiency. The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) is 1,000?g (micrograms) for pregnant women. The RDA is 1,300?g for breastfeeding women.\nEchinacea: The roots and herb of Echinacea species have attracted recent scientific interest because they may have immune stimulant properties. Echinacea has been studied alone and in combination with other herbs or supplements for immune system stimulation (including in patients receiving cancer chemotherapy). It remains unclear if there are clinically significant benefits. Additional studies are needed in this area before conclusions can be drawn regarding safety or effectiveness.\nAvoid if allergic to plants in the Asteraceaeor Compositaefamily (ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigolds, and daisies). Avoid Echinacea injections. Avoid if history of liver disease or if taking amoxicillin. Avoid in transplant patients. Use cautiously if driving or operating heavy machinery or if history of asthma, diabetes, conditions affecting the immune systems (like lupus, TB, AIDS-HIV), or rheumatologic conditions (rheumatoid arthritis). Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding. Tinctures may contain large amounts of alcohol.\nGamma linolenic acid (GLA): Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) is a dietary fatty acid. It is found in many plant oil extracts. A limited amount of GLA is found naturally in human breast milk, cold-water fish, and organ meats (such as liver). GLA is commonly sold as a dietary supplement either in the form of capsules or oil. Few clinical trials have investigated the effects of GLA on immune responses in healthy human subjects. Results from one randomized, clinical trial suggest that GLA, as blackcurrant seed oil, may offer some benefits. Further, well-designed clinical trials are required before definite conclusions can be made.\nUse cautiously with drugs that increase the risk of bleeding, such as anticoagulants and anti-platelet drugs (blood thinners). Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding.\nGoldenseal: Goldenseal is one of the five top-selling herbal products in the United States. However, there is little scientific evidence about its safety or effectiveness. Goldenseal can be found in dietary supplements, eardrops, feminine cleansing products, cold/flu remedies, allergy remedies, laxatives, and digestive aids. Goldenseal is sometimes suggested to be an immune system stimulant. However, there is little human or laboratory evidence in this area. More research is needed before a firm conclusion can be drawn.\nAvoid if allergic or hypersensitive to goldenseal or any of its constituents, such as berberine and hydrastine. Use cautiously with bleeding disorders, diabetes, or low blood sugar. Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding.\nMaitake mushroom: Maitake mushrooms (Grifola frondosa) are fungi that can be eaten. Maitake has been used both as a food and for medical conditions. Animal and laboratory studies suggest that beta-glucan extracts from maitake may alter the immune system. However, no reliable studies in humans are available.\nMaitake has not been studied thoroughly in humans and its effects are not well known. Because it has been used historically as a food, it is thought that low doses may be safe. Avoid if allergic or hypersensitive to Grifola frondosa (maitake). Use cautiously with a history of low blood pressure, diabetes, or with drugs, herbs, or supplements that treat such conditions. Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding.\nMassage: Various forms of massage have been practiced to promote well-being, relaxation, pain-reduction, stress-relief, musculoskeletal injury healing, sleep enhancement, and quality-of-life. Preliminary evidence suggests that massage therapy may preserve immune function. Further research is needed before a firm conclusion can be made.\nAvoid with bleeding disorders, low platelet counts, or if taking blood-thinning medications (such as heparin or warfarin). Areas should not be massaged where there are fractures, weakened bones from osteoporosis or cancer, open/healing skin wounds, skin infections, recent surgery, or blood clots. Use cautiously with a history of physical abuse or if pregnant or breastfeeding. Massage should not be used as a substitute for more proven therapies for medical conditions. Massage should not cause pain to the client.\nMeditation: A common goal of meditation is to attain a state of thoughtless awareness of sensations and mental activities occurring at the present moment. Preliminary research reports increased antibody response after meditation. Further study is needed to confirm these findings.\nUse cautiously with underlying mental illnesses. People with psychiatric disorders should consult with their primary mental healthcare professional(s) before starting a program of meditation and should explore how meditation may or may not fit in with their current treatment plan. Avoid with risk of seizures. The practice of meditation should not delay the time to diagnosis or treatment with more proven techniques or therapies and should not be used as the sole approach to illnesses.\nMistletoe: Once considered a sacred herb in Celtic tradition, mistletoe has been used for centuries for high blood pressure, epilepsy, exhaustion, anxiety, arthritis, vertigo (dizziness), and degenerative inflammation of the joints. A few small trials found mistletoe to be promising as an immunostimulant in individuals with the common cold. Further research is needed to confirm these results.\nAvoid if allergic or hypersensitive to mistletoe or to any of its constituents. Anaphylactic reactions (life threatening, shock) have been described after injections of mistletoe. Avoid with acute, highly febrile, inflammatory disease, thyroid disorders, seizure disorders, or heart disease. Use cautiously with diabetes, glaucoma, or with cholinergics.\nProbiotics: Probiotics are beneficial bacteria and are sometimes called \"friendly germs.\" They help maintain a healthy intestine and aid in digestion. They also help keep harmful bacteria and yeasts in the gut under control. Most probiotics come from food sources, especially cultured milk products. Probiotics can be taken as capsules, tablets, beverages, powders, yogurts, and other foods. Lactobacillus in fermented milk, low-fat milk, or lactose-hydrolyzed low-fat milk may enhance immune function. Bifidobacterium may as well, including in the elderly. However, commercially produced yogurt may not yield similar benefits. There is some evidence that probiotics added during food preparation (e.g., waffles with Enterococcus faecium M-74 added) can enhance immune functioning. More studies are needed, particularly with yogurt, before a firm conclusion can be made.\nVitamin A (retinol): Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that is derived from two sources: retinoids and carotenoids. Retinoids are found in animal products (such as the liver, kidney, eggs, and dairy products). Carotenoids are found in plants, such as dark or yellow vegetables and carrots. Vitamin A deficiency may compromise immunity, but there is no clear evidence that additional vitamin A supplementation is beneficial for immune function in patients who are not vitamin A deficient.\nVitamin B6 (pyridoxine): Major sources of vitamin B6 include cereal grains, legumes (beans), vegetables (such as carrots, spinach, peas), potatoes, milk, cheese, eggs, fish, liver, meat, and flour. Vitamin B6 is important for immune system function in older individuals. One study found that the amount of vitamin B6 required to reverse immune system impairments in elderly people was more than the current recommended dietary allowance (RDA). Well-designed clinical trials on vitamin B6 supplementation for this indication are needed before a recommendation can be made.\nSome individuals seem to be particularly sensitive to vitamin B6 and may have problems at lower doses. Avoid excessive dosing. Vitamin B6 is likely safe when used orally in doses not exceeding the recommended dietary allowance (RDA). The RDA for pregnant women is 1.9mg per day. There is some concern that high-dose pyridoxine taken by a pregnant mother may cause seizures in a newborn. The RDA in breastfeeding women is 2mg per day.\nVitamin E: Vitamin E exists in eight different forms: alpha, beta, gamma and delta tocopherol; and alpha, beta, gamma and delta tocotrienol. Alpha-tocopherol is the most active form in humans. Studies of the effects of vitamin E supplementation on immune system function have yielded mixed results. Further research is needed before a clear conclusion can be drawn.\nAvoid if allergic or hypersensitive to vitamin E. For short periods of time, vitamin E supplementation is generally considered safe at doses up to 1,000mg per day. Avoid doses higher than 1,000mg a day. Avoid with retinitis pigmentosa (loss of peripheral vision). Use cautiously with bleeding disorders. The recommended dose of vitamin E for pregnant women of any age is 15mg and the recommended dose for breastfeeding women of any age is 19mg. Use beyond this level in pregnant women is not recommended.\nDHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone): DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is a naturally occurring hormone that is produced by the adrenal glands. Some authors of textbooks and review articles have suggested that DHEA can stimulate the immune system. However, current scientific evidence does not support this claim.\nLycopene: Lycopene is a carotenoid found in tomatoes that is present in human serum, liver, adrenal glands, lungs, prostate, colon, and skin. It has been proposed that lycopene and other carotenoids, such as beta-carotene, may stimulate the immune system. However, several studies of lycopene supplements and tomato juice intake in humans report no effects on the immune system.\nBone marrow: Bone marrow is the soft, spongy tissue found inside bones. All of the cells of the immune system initially come from the bone marrow during a process called hematopoiesis. During this process, stem cells in the bone marrow either develop into mature immune cells or immature immune cells. The immature immune cells leave the bone marrow and mature in other areas of the body, such as the thymus gland.\nLymph nodes: The lymph nodes are small glands found throughout the body. The lymph nodes filter a type of bodily fluid called lymph fluid. The immune cells inside the lymph nodes capture foreign substances that are present in this fluid, preventing them from causing an infection.\nSpleen: The spleen, which is a dark red oval organ on the left side of the body, filters the blood. The immune cells in this organ destroy foreign invaders that are present in a person's blood.\nThymus gland: The thymus gland, which is located in the front of the chest area, produces white blood cells called T-cells that help the body fight against disease and infection. This gland is most prominent early in life. Once an individual reaches puberty, the gland gradually decreases in size throughout adulthood.\nHumoral response: The humoral immune system involves proteins called immunoglobulin antibodies that fight against disease and infection. These antibodies, which are secreted by white blood cells called B-cells, detect and bind to foreign substances that enter the body. Once the antibody detects a foreign substance in the body, the antibody attaches to it. This action signals other immune cells to destroy it.\nThere are five classes of immunoglobulin antibodies: immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin D (IgD), immunoglobulin E (IgE), immunoglobulin G (IgG), and immunoglobulin M (IgM). Each antibody is specific for a certain invader.\nIgA antibodies are primarily found in the nose, airway passages, digestive tract, ears, eyes, saliva, tears, and vagina. These antibodies protect body surfaces that are frequently exposed to foreign organisms and substances from outside of the body. The IgA antibodies make up about 10-15% of the antibodies found in the body.\nIgG antibodies are the smallest, but most abundant antibodies in the body, making up 75-80% of all of the antibodies in the body. They are present in all body fluids. In addition, they are the only antibodies that can cross the placenta during pregnancy. Therefore, the IgG antibodies of a pregnant woman help protect her fetus. IgG antibodies are considered to be the most important antibodies for fighting against bacterial and viral infections.\nIgM antibodies are the largest type of antibody. They are found in the bloodstream and lymph fluid. The IgM antibodies are the first antibodies that are produced in response to an infection. They also stimulate other immune system cells, including macrophages, to produce compounds that can destroy invading cells. IgM antibodies normally make up about 5-10% of all of the antibodies in the body.\nIgD antibodies are found in small quantities in the tissues that line the abdominal and chest cavity of the body. The function of IgD antibodies is not well understood. Researchers believe they play a role in allergic reactions to some substances, such as milk, medications, and poisons. IgD and IgE are present in very small amounts in normal human serum.\nIgE antibodies reside in the lungs, skin, and mucous membranes. They induce allergic reactions against foreign substances like pollen, fungus spores, parasites, and animal dander. IgE antibody levels are often high in people who have allergies. When IgE is active, the antibody triggers an allergic reaction called a hypersensitive reaction.\nAn allergic response occurs when the immune system overreacts to substances called allergens, which are normally harmless in healthy individuals. The immunoglobulin antibodies detect and bind to the allergens. These antibodies also trigger the release of chemicals, including histamine, which cause allergic symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, and hives.\nCell-mediated immune response: The second part of the immune system, called cell-mediated immunity, involves white blood cells that help destroy harmful invaders that enter the body. This response helps prevent disease and infection.\nCytotoxic T-cells destroy cells infected with viruses and cancers. When a cell is infected with a virus or it is cancerous, the molecules on the cell's surface are changed. Cytotoxic T-cells identify these specific molecules as harmful substances and destroy the infected cells. Cytotoxic T-cells contain pouches, called granules, which are filled with chemicals that kill infected cells on contact. These cells are also involved in organ transplant rejection. The cytotoxic T-cells attack the donated organ because it is perceived as an infected body cell.\nNatural killer (NK) T-cells are similar to cytotoxic T-cells because they recognize and destroy body cells that have become infected with viruses or cancer. They also have granules that are filled with chemicals that destroy infected cells on contact. Unlike cytotoxic cells, the NK T-cells do not need to recognize a specific molecule on the surface of other immune cells in order to become activated. Instead, they attack cells that do not have external molecules that label them as body cells.\nMacrophages, another type of white blood cell, are found inside the tissues of humans. Macrophages are phagocytes, which means they are able to engulf foreign substances that enter the body. Macrophages are in a resting state until chemicals that are released during an immune response activate them. Upon activation, these cells travel toward the site of injury and they engulf disease-causing organisms, called pathogens. Once a macrophage ingests a pathogen, the pathogen is trapped inside the cell's food vacuole. Enzymes and toxic substances inside the cell start to ingest the foreign substance. The cells then secrete chemicals called interferons, lysozyme, and other factors that stimulate other immune cells to respond to the foreign invaders and destroy them.\nInnate immunity: All humans are born with innate (natural) immunity. Innate immune responses are both immediate and nonspecific. In other words, immune cells involved in innate immunity are not specific to just one type of foreign substance. Instead, the immune cells engulf substances that are identified as foreign. This response primarily occurs on the external barriers of the body, including the skin, nose, throat, and gastrointestinal tract. It is the body's first line of defense to prevent disease-causing organisms from entering the body.\nAdaptive immunity: Adaptive immunity is a type of protection that develops over the course of an individual's life. Adaptive immunity involves the development of immunoglobulin antibodies that respond to specific foreign substances that enter the body. When individuals are exposed to certain foreign invaders, the body develops antibodies against the pathogens. Then, if the same substance enters the body in the future, the body is now prepared to respond quickly because the antibodies are already developed.\nPassive immunity: Passive immunity describes the immune system of babies who are less than six months old. Because a fetus' immune system is not fully developed, pregnant mothers pass immunoglobulin antibodies from their bloodstream, through the placenta, and to the fetus. These antibodies are an essential part of the immune system. They identify and bind to harmful substances that enter the body. When this happens, other immune cells are triggered to destroy the foreign substance. As a result, antibodies help prevent disease and infection. This provides the fetus with passive immunity.\nImmunoglobulin G (IgG) is the only antibody that crosses the placenta to the fetus during pregnancy. IgG antibodies are the smallest, but most abundant antibodies, making up for 75-80% of all the antibodies in the body. They are present in all body fluids, and they are considered to be the most important antibodies for fighting against bacterial and viral infections. These antibodies help protect the fetus from developing an infection inside the womb.\nImmediately after birth, the newborn has high levels of the mother's antibodies. Babies who are breastfed continue to receive antibodies via breast milk. Breast milk contains all five types of antibodies, including immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin D (IgD), immunoglobulin E (IgE), IgG, and immunoglobulin M (IgM). This is called passive immunity because the mother is \"passing\" her antibodies to her child.",

        "title": "Zebedee\u2019s Wife\u2019s Request",
        "raw_content": "What was Zebedee\u2019s wife\u2019s request? How does it relate to the Two Witnesses of Revelation?\nAccording to Matthew 4:21 and Mark 1:19-20, Zebedee was a fisherman, as were his two sons, James and John. Luke 5:10 tells us that all three also worked with Simon (who became the Apostle Peter) in a fishing business partnership. Of course, James and John later became apostles, too.\nJust as Jesus gave Simon the new last name \u201cPeter\u201c, Jesus also gave a new last name to the sons of Zebedee, as it is written in Mark 3:16-17. Their new last name was \u201cBoanerges\u201d, which means \u201cthe sons of thunder\u201d. Jesus took only Simon, John, and James with Him to several places, such as the Mount of Transfiguration (Matthew 17:1-8; Mark 9:2-8; and Luke 9:28-36) and the Garden of Gethsemane, just prior to His crucifixion (Matthew 26:36-37).\nAlthough Jesus\u2019s disciples (including the sons of Zebedee) ran and hid when Jesus was captured (Matthew 26:55-56), and were in hiding during Jesus\u2019s crucifixion, the mother of the two sons was with Jesus when He died (Matthew 27:56).\nClearly, then, there was a very good relationship between Jesus and Zebedee\u2019s family. It was within the context of this good relationship that the wife of Zebedee made her request.\n\u201c20 Then the mother of Zebedee\u2019s sons came to Jesus (along with her sons), worshiping Him, and requesting something from Him.\n21 And He said \u2018What do you desire?\u2019\nShe said \u2018Say that my two sons will be seated one on Your right, and one on Your left, in Your kingdom!\u2019\n22 And answering, Jesus said \u2018You don\u2019t understand what you are requesting. Are you able to drink the drink which I am about to drink, and to be baptized with the baptism with which I am being baptized?\u2019\nThey said to Him, \u2018We are able.\u2019\n23 And He replied to them, \u2018You will indeed be drinking My drink, and will be being baptized with the baptism with which I am being baptized. But to be seated at My right and at My left is not Mine to give, but is for those for whom it has been made ready by My Father.\u2019\u201d\n(Note: to say that someone \u201cwill be being baptized\u201d means that in the future, the person will be enduring some kind of \u201cbaptism\u201d which will not be a short event, but will instead be an ongoing process requiring an extended period of time to complete. The \u201cbaptism\u201d to which Jesus refers is a \u201cbaptism\u201d in suffering. In this Scripture passage, the words \u201cdrink\u201d and \u201cbaptism\u201d are used metaphorically.)\nThis is also recorded in Mark 10:35-40 (though, in the Book of Mark, the fact that the two brothers desired this for themselves is emphasized, and their mother\u2019s involvement is not mentioned).\nSo Zebedee\u2019s wife\u2019s request is for her two sons to be stationed by Jesus--who is God--in Heaven. Jesus replies that He cannot fulfill that request, and says that it is God the Father\u2019s choice who will have that honor. However, Jesus does not say who His Father has chosen.\nThis begs an old question: Who will be to the left and right of Jesus in Heaven?\nLet\u2019s look again at the Book of Revelation.\nSo the Two Witnesses will be \u201cstanding before the God of the Earth.\u201d Does this mean that the Two Witnesses are the ones who stand on the left and right of Jesus in Heaven?\nThe two Revelation 11:4 phrases \u201cthe two olive trees\u201d and \u201cstanding before the God of the Earth\u201d are references to chapter 4 of the Book of Zechariah. We will take a closer look at this in Part 4: Zechariah, the Menorah and the Number Seven.\nGo to Part 4: Zechariah, the Menorah and the Number Seven from Part 3: Zebedee's Wife's Request\nReturn to Part 2: Why TWO Witnesses? from Part 3: Zebedee's Wife's Request\nReturn Home from Part 3: Zebedee's Wife's Request",

That\u2019s the time slot occupied by local news followed by exciting programming like Wheel of Fortune. Advertisers know that air time is cheap and that the right eyeballs are staring at the screen, hitting the 35-65+ audience.\nRight now, it\u2019s virtually impossible to escape the endless barrage of political ads \u2013 most of them local, none of them positive in nature, all of them extremely angry at the great injustice the opposition candidate has done to us, the innocent and apparently, quite gullible citizens of this community.\nEveryone is wrong for Missouri (or in some instances, Illinois). Everyone has stretched the truth, spent money recklessly, or sided with a government that fails us all on a daily basis.\nIt is the rarest of the rare occasions when a candidate comes on, delivers his or her platform without overhyping and without bashing his or her opposition.\nPolitics is not about emphasizing the positive. Politics is about ripping into your opponent, belittling him or her as much as possible and letting us all know what a horrible job he or she will do if elected or even worse, re-elected.\nIs it any wonder that more and more Americans continue to avoid the polls altogether?\nSeptember is coming to a close.\nIt\u2019s going to be a long month of mud-slinging coming our way.\nEspecially during the angry hour.\nAdjust your schedules accordingly.\nPosted in Advertising campaigns, Politics, Uncategorized\nHard work has its awards\nBloodLines Creative made its presence known at last night\u2019s TAM awards put on by the St. Louis Business Marketing Association recognizing excellence in business-to-business advertising and marketing communications.\nIn all, we won six awards including a best in class winner for the total communications campaign category for our client, SchoolReach and the launch of their CyberBully Hotline service. The campaign consisted of a new website (www.cyberbullyhotline.com), an overview brochure, in school posters, YouTube videos (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rb-68K1mXwk), trade and online ads and a newsletter.\nMany people in the crowd were wondering who exactly BloodLines Creative is and where we came from.\nI began this business on 11/11/11. After having been Creative Director at Summit Marketing for close to four great years, I was downsized as a result of government cutbacks that led to an overall loss of business for Summit. The CFO, the Director of Account Service and myself were all let go and it was at that point that I vowed to succeed on my own.\nStarting your own business, hiring out others, pursuing new accounts and doing great work in the process is no easy task. Still, many have done it before me and I use them as inspiration.\nI look at the great work being done by firms in this city, many who were in attendance last night, and they inspire me to work harder. I love to create. I love to help clients achieve success by developing cut-through work that really works.\nThough this was the first year that BloodLines Creative entered the TAMs, I\u2019m certainly no stranger to the event which is now in its 26th year. In all, I\u2019ve won more than 100 TAM Awards. The four Silvers and two Best in Class awards we won last night (including one for this blog!) are just a starting point for where I want to take this business.\nSo if you, or anyone you know might be in need of some big idea thinking for any and all marketing challenges, remember, I can be the advertising agency you thought you couldn\u2019t afford.\nTo see more of my work, please visit www.bloodlinescreative.com\nAnd then call me.

A travesty. The worst blown call in the history of the NFL. A fix. Sheer incompetence at its highest level.\nCall it whatever you want, but the ending to last night\u2019s Monday Night Football game between the Packers and the Seahawks has got to be the tipping point to get the owners of the NFL to cave in and come to an agreement with the real NFL refs regarding their pay and pension.\nI read that the difference between the two parties is about $10 million, which, if they did settle for that amount would cost each NFL team a little over $310,000 or about $40,000 for every home game. I read on Yahoo Sports that the difference is actually only $3 million.\nThe NFL is worth more than most third world countries. Last year, owners generated $9.5 billion in revenue. They have deals with NBC, CBS and ABC worth $28 billion over the next nine years and $15.2 billion with ESPN through 2021.\nMoney is not the issue. Apparently, the main issue is the pension. The owners want to switch to a more traditional $401k style of a retirement plan which has more uncertainty built into it for the refs over the long haul.\nThis much is certain \u2013 these replacement refs are in way over their heads and they are ruining the games.\nThe blown TD call was just one in a series of horrible calls last night.\nThere was an interception that was overturned due to a non-existent roughing the passer call. There was an interference call that led to a Seahawks first down when it was the Seahawks player that did the interfering. The Patriots-Ravens Sunday night football game had 13 first downs awarded as a result of penalties \u2013 the most in NFL history. Vicious blows haven\u2019t been called and so there have been even more of them \u2013 just ask Texans\u2019 quarterback Matt Schaub who lost part of his ear due to an illegal hit.\nSomething tells me all these recent games have been fixed. The point spread on last night\u2019s game was Packers, -3. They were winning by 5 which should have been the winning margin, pleasing bettors but displeasing Vegas. Sunday night\u2019s game also had the point spread do a remarkable reversal due to the calls of the replacement refs.\nBut maybe it\u2019s not Vegas that\u2019s fixing these games. Maybe it\u2019s some under the table deal between the NFL Referees Association and the replacement refs. Put simply, the deal is for the replacement refs to make absolutely horrendous calls each game and by week three, the fans will reach a boiling point and demand that a resolution be reached. Do your part, and we\u2019ll find you a job later on for the horrible work you\u2019ve done.\nMr. Goodell, on behalf of your uber-wealthy owners, get this thing fixed before Thursday night\u2019s kick-off.\nThis farce must end.\nPosted in football, lifestyle, Uncategorized\t| Tagged ABC, CBS, ESPN, Matt Schaub, Monday Night Football, NBC, NFL, NFL Referees Association, Patriots-Ravens, Roger Goodell, Seahawks-Packers, Yahoo Sports\nSteve Puckett rocked the boat\nI was saddened by the news I heard this past week on Facebook that Steve Puckett had died.\nI read his obit in today\u2019s St. Louis Post-Dispatch and it all seemed so trivial.\nAbout three inches of copy space to sum up a life. That\u2019s about the norm for most obits \u2013 where you grew up, where you worked, and who are your survivors.\nOf course, an obit can\u2019t begin to really tell a life story. It\u2019s just a notice \u2013 a sad notice, that someone has passed on.\nI didn\u2019t know Steve very well at all. My main encounters with him generally were at awards shows. His agency, The Puckett Group, seemed to come out of nowhere and quickly began dominating the St. Louis awards scene in the late 80s and most of the 90s.\nI went back into my archives where I have a few old Flair Awards booklets \u2013 which later became the ADDYs and tried to find some of his work because I know that many times, work from my Kenrick or Hughes days went up against work from The Puckett Group and it seemed most times, they got Gold and we got honorable mention.\nI remember meeting with Steve one time at his agency \u2013 he was intense, he was a little bit aloof \u2013 but I found that he was also extremely personable and passionate about the work that he and his colleagues did. Somehow, The Puckett Group fell on some hard times \u2013 it could have been his refusal to compromise and wanting to always stand up for the work they did. I don\u2019t know.\nI remember being surprised when he was named the Creative Director at the Brighton Agency \u2013 a spinoff from my old Kenrick days \u2013 so I continued to keep track of him from a distance \u2013 and the last I remember hearing anything about him was when he was let go from Brighton in 2003.\nIt wasn\u2019t until this week that I heard his name again. Even in his obit, I learned a little more about him. I knew he loved sailing but had no idea he was Commodore of the Carlyle Yacht Club.\nI\u2019m sure he was as passionate about sailing as he was about creating great advertising.\nHis death reminds me that time is short. And we\u2019re not necessarily remembered for the campaigns we create but rather for the person we were. Steve was a game changer. He left his mark on the St. Louis advertising community. His passion for creating great work inspired others to do the same.\nThat memory lives on.\nSteve rocked the boat quite often during his career.\nWe should all strive to do the same.\nR.I.P., Steve.\nPosted in Advertising campaigns, freelance writing, Interactive, lifestyle, Uncategorized\t| Tagged ADDYs, Flair Awards, Hughes, Kenrick, St. Louis Post Dispatch, The Puckett Group\nThe key to winning new business\nIdentify who you want to do great work for, and then relentlessly pursue them.\nStand for something. Be willing to give, but always know that in the end, you are judged by the work you produce, not that you present. If you can\u2019t sell your work, it must not be based on sound strategy.\nClients want great creative, but that really is secondary. Clients want results. They want to see the needle move and the cash register ring. They want people through the doors, clothes sold off the rack. They want the turnstiles to turn. And if you can\u2019t deliver that, you\u2019re not going to continue your working relationship.\nThe reason I said you need to identify who you want to do great work for is simple \u2013 if you\u2019re passionate going in about their business, you\u2019ll be doubly so when you\u2019re working on their behalf.\nNot every client out there is ideally suited to your wheelhouse. You need to know what your wheelhouse is, and then be able to knock it out of the park when given the chance.\nBe more selective in who you pursue. Then go after them in ways that will make you stand out and open eyes to the value you bring.\nLeo Burnett used to say, \u201cReach for the stars and at least you won\u2019t come up with a handful of mud.\u201d\nNo one is going to hand anything to you. You have to go out and get it.\nPosted in Advertising campaigns, freelance writing\nA tough ban to swallow\nNow that the New York City Health Department and Mayor Michael Bloomberg have teamed up to ban the sale of regular soda in any size larger than a 16-ounce cup, I\u2019m canceling my summer plans to visit the Big Apple.\nHow can they do this? More important, do they really think it will lower obesity rates among New York City dwellers?\nTheir studies show two things: 1. People generally will drink whatever is put in front of them, especially if it\u2019s sitting in their laps for a two-hour movie. 2. People are less likely to order two drinks versus one really big one.\nI agree with both of those premises.\nBut why pick on soda?\nThe other strange thing is that the ban only applies to restaurants, mobile food carts, sports arenas and movie theaters. So if it\u2019s a 90 degree day in the city, I can still walk into 7-11 and get myself a Big Gulp. Or two. And if I\u2019m grocery shopping, there\u2019s nothing stopping me from picking up all the soda my cart can hold. But if I\u2019m cheering on the Bronx Bombers, it\u2019s a 16-ounce max of Pepsi or Coke or whatever sugar-infested soda they may serve.\nI guess it\u2019s okay to still order a 32-ounce Diet Pepsi or Diet Coke or Diet whatever. And of course it\u2019s also okay to order that 32-ounce diet drink to accompany your double cheeseburger, nachos, peanuts and popcorn at the ballpark or to help you wash down your oversized container of buttered popcorn to get you through your next movie.\nI read that the average New Yorker goes to the movies four times a year. It just seems kind of cruel to cut back on that jumbo drink to accompany your jumbo popcorn. But maybe that\u2019s the idea. Maybe the new, svelte, New York City dweller won\u2019t order that jumbo popcorn.\nSoon, there\u2019s going to be a lot more room on the sidewalks as the city collectively sheds millions of pounds of ugly fat caused by all those oversized soda drinks.\nThey banned smoking in public places. Next they banned table salt (I didn\u2019t know that!) And now, the giant sodas become a part of the past next March unless this somehow gets overturned.\nMight they even consider banning fat people in general from showing up in public places? After all, doesn\u2019t seeing other fat people send a subtle message to you that it\u2019s okay to be fat, so eat away?\nIf that\u2019s the case, many of us, myself included, have got a lot to lose.\nPosted in lifestyle, Politics, Uncategorized\t| Tagged 7-11, Big Gulp, Michael Bloomberg, New York City\nThe heart murmur\nWords can\u2019t begin to describe the love that our family has for our dog, Annie.\nIt was eight Julys ago when we first brought her home, a skinny, malnourished rescue dog that had puppies before she was even a year old. She\u2019s a rat terrier which, when you hear it, sounds like it would be an ugly dog.\nAnnie is the cutest dog in the world.\nShe\u2019s white with brown spots and doesn\u2019t have a mean bone in her body.\nWe found out this weekend that she has a heart murmur.\nI took her in to the vet for her annual checkup and when the vet asked me how she\u2019d been recently, I mentioned she seemed to be tired all the time and sleeps a lot more than she used to. He told me that last time she was in, he had noticed that she had a slight murmur and wanted to check it out in more detail.\nWhen he left for a few minutes and then came in and shut the door, I knew it wasn\u2019t going to be great news. He told me her heart murmur had gotten much worse and prescribed some medication for it. He then said that if she got overly excited or overly exerted herself on a walk it might trigger a heart attack. He also said that if the medication does its job, she may have several more good years ahead of her and that only God knows how much longer she might have. It could be six months. It could be three or more years.\nI fought back tears as he told me this and when he went to arrange Annie\u2019s medication, it was just this little puppy and myself. I love this dog, as does everyone in our family, as does anyone who\u2019s ever met her. This dog is just so damn cute, so loving, so loyal and so much fun.\nShe\u2019s brought so much joy into our family and all five of us have a deep love for this little, 16-pound bundle of energy and cuteness.\nAlready, it\u2019s been like an awakening of the many simple pleasures a dog can provide on a daily basis. I sat outside with her on my lap yesterday after I mowed the grass, just chilling in the shade, listening to the sounds of the neighborhood and enjoying the unqualified loyalty that a dog can provide. I shut my eyes and committed that moment to memory.\nDogs never care what you look like in the morning. They\u2019re always there to greet you when you walk in the door, absolutely thrilled that you\u2019re home \u2013 even if you\u2019ve only run a short errand.\nDogs (and pets in general) are such a tremendous gift.\nOur family has been blessed with a dog that I will always remember, long after she\u2019s gone.\nI\u2019m hoping that won\u2019t be for several more years.\nBut for now, I am grateful for every single day to have that little pupper brightening the days of our household.\nWe love you, Annie Blood \u2013 heart murmur and all.\nThe 50 most creative ad people over 50\nToday, I ran across an article on businessinsider.com about the 30 most creative people under 30. It\u2019s an impressive list and the work they are doing is fresh and unexpected.\nGo here to see it: http://www.businessinsider.com/30-under-30-most-creative-people-in-advertising-2012-9\nThat got me thinking about creating a new list, one that I think would contain work that is equally fresh and unexpected. Perhaps even more so because here you might find a list filled with people who have been creating great work for clients for years and years.\nI don\u2019t have this list yet. People like Lee Clow and David LuBars immediately came to mind. I dug a little deeper into my memory bank and came up with Neil French (one of my all-time favorite copywriters), David Abbott, Dan Wieden, Mike Lescarbeau, Luke Sullivan, Tom McElligott, Lionel Hunt, Mike Hughes and Jeff Goodby.\nIf you wanted to expand that list to the digital world and also include photographers or directors you would quickly add in Robert Greenberg or Joe Pytka. And that is certainly only the tip of the iceberg.\nFor those of you in St. Louis, we could start our own list. My list would begin with Tom Townsend, Jon Bruton, David Bartels, Eric Thoelke and branch out from there.\nProblem is, I don\u2019t know what all of these people are doing right now \u2013 most are in leadership roles, inspiring or overseeing great creative. I don\u2019t know if they are actually writing or art directing or shooting though I\u2019m sure they are certainly heavily involved in the process.\nI always aspired to be among those names.\nOne thing that really struck me in looking at the work samples of the 30 under 30 list is how heavily integrated the advertising is these days.\nThe days of the big budget, nationally broadcast commercials to sell product or push a brand are behind us. They\u2019re still done, though not as frequently. When they are, they have to be launched on the internet, hyped on the internet and have many tentacles that reach down to customers and find them at a variety of touchpoints.\nThese days, there is almost as much creativity that goes in to finding and reaching the target audience and connecting on their level as their is to the actual idea itself.\nBut ideas still rule.\nDoesn\u2019t matter how old you are for that.\nBig ideas can cut through anything.\nSo I ask you, who would you put on the most creative ad people over 50 list? My only criteria would be, they still have to be in the game.\nIt would be nice if a few media outlets would turn their attention away for a few moments from the next generation of great ad thinkers and instead salute the ones who\u2019ve been doing it year after year.\nPosted in Uncategorized\t| Tagged Dan Wieden, David Abbott, David Bartels, David LuBars, Eric Thoelke, Jeff Goodby, Joe Pytka, Jon Bruton, Lee Clow, Lionel Hunt, Luke Sullivan, Mike Hughes, Mike Lescarbeau, Neil French, Robert Greenberg, Tom McElligott, Tom Townsend\nA little Labor Day break\nWay back on September 5, 1882, 10,000 workers took unpaid time off from their jobs in the New York city area and marched from City Hall to Union Square where they then picnicked for a bit before returning to their respective jobs.\nThat marked the first true Labor Day in our country though its origins might actually have originated a few years earlier when a large group of Canadians took the day off to protest their 58-hour work week.\nAnd to think we complain about our 9-to-5 jobs.\nStill, we labor \u2013 working hard to make our work as good as it can be and we all deserve a day off to take a collective sigh and put the wraps on the summer and prepare for fall.\nIt\u2019s one last blast of summer, one last dip in the pool or one final big bar-b-que or, in my case, a chance to play golf on a Monday.\nI won\u2019t be attending any parades \u2013 I don\u2019t think I ever have on a Labor Day.\nBut I do salute all those who put in the hard labor \u2013 who come home from work physically sore and tired. Our Industrial Age was over a long time ago. But there are still countless Americans doing hard, physical labor that most of us who have office or desk jobs rarely even think about.\nGranted, we labor with our minds each day and we deserve a break as well. Collectively, we should all thank each other for the jobs we do and vow to work even harder, maybe boost our productivity to a higher degree if at all possible.\nSo when you get back to work on Tuesday, rather than take the entire morning to clear the cobwebs from your three-day respite, dive in. Attack. Be glad you have a job and do your best to do it better than you\u2019ve ever done it before.\nEnjoy your Labor Day.",

        "raw_content": "Red Red Rock and Other Stories \u2013 Four Decades on, Hayashi Seiichi\u2019s Alternative Manga Retain the Power to Beguile and Mystify\nRed Red Rock and Other Stories, a new collection of Hayashi Seiichi\u2019s alternative manga from Breakdown Press, is a demanding but rewarding read.\nAfter 30 years of thumbing (and latterly swiping) my way through the funny books, it\u2019s easy to picture the inside of my noddle like one of those houses on a documentary about compulsive hoarders.\nHowever, every now and then I sit up with a gasp in the middle of the night, my blood turned to ice, as I realise the limits of my \u201cexpertise\u201d. For instance, beyond Akira and Lone Wolf & Cub, manga is largely a closed (right-to-left) book to me. And as for avant-garde 1960s manga\u2026\nSo it was with a mix of trepidation and excitement at the prospect of learning something new that I picked up Red Red Rock and Other Stories \u2013 a collection of stories by Hayashi Seiichi from 1967-70, mostly published in the seminal manga magazine Garo and given a 21st-century outing by those subterranean taste-makers at Breakdown Press.\nOnce you get into the book, you soon realise that you\u2019ve landed in a very distinct part of Planet Comics. Quite apart from the adjustment of reading from right to left, the work is enmeshed in a web of traditions and references that are very specific to another time and place \u2013 so much so that despite the clarity of the translation, it still feels at first a little like you\u2019re reading something in a foreign language.\nFortunately, the comics are accompanied by a chunky introductory essay by translator and manga scholar Ryan Holmberg, who admits that the angura (underground) scene of late-60s Tokyo was defined by \u201cintertextuality of kaleidoscopic dimensions\u201d.\nFrom \u2018The Devil, His Son and the Uneatable Soul\u2019 (1967)\n(However, while Holmberg\u2019s essay offers something of a roadmap through the stories, even that leaves you wishing for a glossary, as he delves in ever more granular detail into the intricate subdivisions of popular Japanese song and cinema that form a strong underlying element in Hayashi\u2019s work.)\nThe stories themselves vary in scale and style, and can certainly appear baffling on frist encounter. However, once you\u2019ve acclimatised to the flavour of the work and begin to make the historical and cultural connections, the depth of Hayoshi\u2019s manga pops into sight, like a Magic Eye picture (ask your parents).\nThe opening story \u2013 The Devil, His Son and the Uneatable Soul \u2013 is probably the most straightforward in narrative terms, but by the time we get to Dawn\u2019s Early Light, published three months later, we\u2019re getting into more characteristically challenging territory.\nFrom \u2018Red Handkerchief\u2019 (1969)\nAn eccentric take on a US-style superhero, it introduces a few of the themes that play out through the book, including Japan\u2019s complex relationship with the US and its popular culture; a reconsideration of the country\u2019s place in the world; and intense mother-son relationships (reflecting Hayashi\u2019s own experiences with his own mother, whose mental health issues are treated in the story American Born Celluloid).\nThose themes are expanded in Our Mother, the first lengthy piece of work in the book, in which a frog leaves home and helps to build an idealised Japanese landscape, pondering the country\u2019s past and future roles and where it should look for inspiration as it rebuilds from the devastation of war, nuclear attack, defeat and occupation.\nAs alluded to above, various forms of traditional Japanese song are woven through the stories, and even if you don\u2019t pick up on the subversive nuances of every reference, the use of refrain-like dialogue and narration gives a lot of these stories a musical rhythm. This is particularly evident in the 50-page story Flower Poem, heavily influenced (in its early pages, at least) by the the Beatles\u2019 contemporaneous Yellow Submarine.\nFrom \u2018Red Red Rock\u2019 (1969)\nIn a telling quote in Holmberg\u2019s introduction, Hayashi praises the energy of the Beatles\u2019 films \u2013 in particular the way they suddenly burst into song: \u201cNo matter how you edit shots or try to express something in words, you\u2019ll never be able to reproduce that kind of transition. It has incredible power.\u201d And while the \u2018silent\u2019 nature of manga stymies Hayashi to a degree, he does what he can to make his pages sing.\nOther stories expand on recurring themes. Red Enamel Shoes and Flower Falling Town both deal with the sexual loss of childhood innocence, while the short, lyrical Red Bird Little Bird takes us into the mind of a man haunted by wartime experiences. Gender roles \u2013 and their particular state at that moment of Japanese history \u2013 also play a key role; two of the stories in the collection were even published in a women\u2019s lifestyle magazine, A Woman\u2019s Self (Josei jishin).\nFrom Flower Falling Town (1968)\nIn Flower Poem, women\u2019s tears are a prized natural energy source, to be commercialised and fought over; it\u2019s literally male exploitation and female sorrow that fuels the world. The role of women is also examined in Giant Fish, focusing on what an abandoned wife had to do to survive during her husband\u2019s 26-year disappearance. And Madam D, which closes the collection, is a characteristically oblique treatment of the life of Dewi Sukarno (n\u00e9e Nemoto Naoko), a Ginza bar hostess who married the Indonesian dictator and became a tabloid obsession.\nThe book spans a variety of art styles, knitted together by the lovely monochrome production in aubergine (?) ink. With a lunge into the surreal and psychedelic never too far away, it ranges from the simplistic cartooning of the opener to the beautifully atmospheric depiction of a bleak snowy landscape (in Giant Fish) and the more complex, pop art-influenced appropriations of his later work.\nAs you\u2019ve probably gathered by now, this isn\u2019t a book you can pick up and dip into while you\u2019re multi-tasking. And, at first glance, some of the work can be elusive and hallucinatory. However, close consideration of the manga in Red Red Rock and Other Stories pays dividends, taking the reader as close as possible to a singular time and place in comics history.\nHayashi Seiichi (W/A), Ryan Holmberg (Tr) \u2022 Breakdown Press, \u00a316.99\nTags: breakdown pressgarohayashi seiichimangared red rockryan holmberg\nStaff Picks for August 3, 2016 \u2013 March, Lady Killer 2, Growing Up in Public, The Adventures of Augusta Wind, Tales to Diminish and More!\nCyborg 009, Chapter 000",

        "raw_content": "KILLSWITCH ENGAGE have set \"Incarnate\" as the title of their seventh album\nKILLSWITCH ENGAGE frontman Jesse Leach told Revolver about the band's new CD title: \"The definition of incarnate is 'in the flesh.' And this record is who we are right now. Whereas [2013's] 'Disarm The Descent' was sort of my 'comeback' album, and was about us feeling out the new vibe. But now, after spending a few years traveling the world together, I think we're all in a really comfortable place. We definitely have a strong sense of self as to who we are as a band.\"\n\"Incarnate\" will incude the song \"Strength Of The Mind\", for which KILLSWITCH ENGAGE recently filmed a video with the direction team of Ian McFarland and Mike Pecci (MESHUGGAH, FEAR FACTORY).\n\"The video visually captures a bit of the anxiety and chaos that the song touches on lyrically,\" said Leach. \"It is almost a bit surreal and dream-like with the camera effects, called 'whacking.'\"\nHe continued: \"It is always a pleasure to work with McFarland and Pecci, as they are both artists who give it their all with no shortcuts. Watching Mike work the camera live, while Ian paces around and directs, is a very involving and creatively satisfying experience.\"\nKILLSWITCH ENGAGE drummer Justin Foley recently told Louder Noise that the band's follow-up to \"Disarm The Descent\" will \"definitely [be] a little different record than last time. Last time, it was really, really fast the whole way through. This one doesn't have quite the same speed to it, but has a different kind of heaviness to it, I think \u2014 a little bit of moodiness to it. I don't really know how to describe it yet.\"\nHe also talked about \"Strength Of The Mind\", which the band has been performing live. He said: \"I think that one is a good representation of stuff that we do. But I also think it's a song that would sound good live. It's a song that wasn't crazy, crazy fast, it wasn't crazy different from any of our stuff, so I think it was a good song to kind of ease into new material. I think live, it was the kind of thing that we could get it to sound tight fairly quickly, which is helpful, 'cause we didn't have a whole lot of time to get it ready for [the last] tour. So that kind of helped us influence picking that song.\"\n\"Disarm The Descent\" sold around 48,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 7 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD arrived in stores on April 2, 2013 via Roadrunner Records.\n\"Disarm The Descent\" was KILLSWITCH ENGAGE's first album with Jesse Leach at the vocal helm since 2002's now-classic, genre-defining \"Alive or Just Breathing\".\nKILLSWITCH ENGAGE contributed another new song, \"Loyalty\", to the mixtape for HBO's hit fantasy series \"Game Of Thrones\".\n[info from Blabbermouth]",

        "raw_content": "Two tight games, two losses for m. hoops\nJustin Coleman / Herald\nMatt Mullery '10 scored in double figures in back-to-back losses for the men's basketball team this weekend.\nThe men\u2019s basketball team\u2019s woes continued on the road this weekend with a 56-48 loss to Princeton on Friday night, followed by a 64-54 loss to Penn on Saturday night. The Bears led at halftime on Friday, but poor shooting in the second half gave the Tigers the win. Saturday night\u2019s game followed a similar story line, as Brown led for much of the game but faltered down the stretch against the Quakers.\nThe Bears came in looking to sweep the season series against Princeton as they took the opening game 61-43 in Providence on Feb. 14, their only conference win of the season.\nTri-captain Peter Sullivan \u201911 led Brown (7-19, 1-11 Ivy) with 21 points, shooting 7-of-15 from the field on Friday night, with 14 of his points coming in the first half. But Sullivan\u2019s effort wasn\u2019t enough for the Bears, who shot 35 percent from the floor and 14 percent from behind the three-point line on the night.\nTri-captain Chris Skrelja \u201909 had the hot hand early on, scoring seven points in the opening four minutes to keep Brown within two points, at 12-10. Though Skrelja did not score for the rest of the game, he turned in a strong all-around effort for the Bears, grabbing a career-high 16 rebounds and dishing out a team-high five assists.\nThe Tigers (12-12, 7-4 Ivy) went on a 9-2 run over the next three and a half minutes to take a 21-12 lead, but two baskets from Sullivan jump-started a 17-6 run for Bruno to end the first half. Sullivan accounted for 11 of Brown\u2019s 17 points during that run to vault the Bears to a 29-27 lead going into the locker room.\nBut after intermission, Brown struggled to convert opportunities on the offensive end. After shooting 44 percent from the field in the first half, the Bears shot just 24 percent in the second half, including a 1-of-12 mark from behind the arc.\n\u201cWe would take those shots anytime, anywhere to try to win games,\u201d said Head Coach Jesse Agel. \u201cWe just didn\u2019t have any luck making them.\u201d\nMatt Mullery \u201910 scored the team\u2019s first five points of the half to keep Brown\u2019s slim lead intact, 34-33, with 13:35 remaining, but that was the last time the Bears would hold the lead.\nPrinceton freshman Doug Davis, who led the Tigers with 16 points, knocked down two threes and another jumper over the next 4:36 to put Brown in a 41-36 hole with 8:59 left to play. The Bears kept the game close, and a jumper by Sullivan cut Princeton\u2019s lead to two points, 50-48, with 3:01 left to play, but several costly turnovers down the stretch ultimately gave the game to the Tigers, who came away with a 56-48 victory.\nMullery was the only player other than Sullivan to score in double figures for the Bears, as he finished with 11 points, on 5-of-11 shooting, along with seven rebounds and three blocks.\n\u201cWe played very well as a team, but unfortunately \u2026 we weren\u2019t able get any points off our bench, which would\u2019ve given us a big lift,\u201d Agel said. \u201cBut with that being said, we had tremendous opportunities, and wide open shots, we just had some bad luck.\u201d\nThe Bears came into Philadelphia on Saturday night hoping to avenge a 73-52 loss on their Feb. 13 meeting with Penn (9-16, 5-6 Ivy), and Mullery rose to the occasion, shooting 8-of-9 from the field to finish with 19 points, 10 rebounds and five blocks, all game-highs.\n\u201cMatt Mullery had a phenomenal game inside and was tremendous from start to finish,\u201d Agel said.\nThe Bears got off to a hot start on Saturday, with Chris Taylor \u201911 scoring the game\u2019s first four points in his first career start, in place of injured tri-captain Scott Friske \u201909, who missed both games this weekend. Following a lay-up by Penn\u2019s Kevin Egee, Skrelja knocked down a three, and two lay-ups by Mullery gave the Bears an 11-2 lead 6:08 in.\n\u201cWe were able to switch on a lot of screens and defend them pretty well early in the game,\u201d Mullery said. \u201cWe did a great job on closing out on their shooters, and we did a good job of rebounding, too.\u201d\nA three-point play by Mullery with 8:09 left gave Brown its biggest lead of the night, at 18-5, but the Quakers turned things around in the closing minutes of the first half.\nAfter a Mullery lay-up gave Bruno a 21-10 lead with 3:21 remaining, Penn closed out the half on an 11-2 run to cut Brown\u2019s lead to two points, 23-21.\nPenn grabbed its first lead of the game with 15:21 remaining when a three from Rob Belcore put the Quakers ahead, 31-29. The Bears continued to fight, as the second half saw seven lead changes and five ties. Mullery continued to make his presence felt in the paint, and Garrett Leffelman \u201911 scored seven points in the final eight minutes, finishing with a career-high nine points in 20 minutes off the bench.\n\u201cChris Taylor and Garrett Leffelman both came in and gave us a spark,\u201d Agel said. \u201cChris helped us get out to a good start, and Garrett was hanging in there right until the very end.\u201d\nA lay-up from Mullery gave Brown its last lead of the game, 54-53, with 3:21 left, as the Bears would not score for the remainder of the contest. Down 60-54 with 1:38 left, Brown had multiple chances to make it a one-possession game, but missed three-point attempts from Leffelman and Morgan Kelly \u201911 kept Penn\u2019s lead intact, and freshman guard Zack Rosen iced the game with a pair of free throws with 24 seconds left.\n\u201cIt was pretty much a carbon copy of the game before. We had open looks and just weren\u2019t able to knock them down,\u201d Agel said. \u201cOur guys did a great job of getting themselves open, finding the open man and having the right guy shooting, but it just wouldn\u2019t go in.\u201d\nThe Bears will finish their season at home this weekend against Harvard (13-13, 5-7 Ivy) on Friday night and Dartmouth (9-17, 7-5 Ivy) on Saturday night.\n\u201cWe had a few close losses at Dartmouth and Harvard a few weeks back, and that\u2019s still in our minds,\u201d Mullery said. \u201cHopefully, we\u2019ll finally be able to win some close games and get the victories this weekend.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "SUPER RACES OF MAN\nGIANTS OF OLD ..SMITHSONIAN COVERUPS\nIs the True History of Man Being Covered Up?\nEgyptian Artifacts in the Grand Canyon\nThe Phoenix Gazette - April 5, 1909\nRemarkable Finds Indicate Ancient People Migrated From Orient:\nThe latest news of the progress of the explorations or what is now regarded by scientists as not only the oldest archaeological discovery in the United States, but one of the most valuable in the world, which was mentioned\nsome time ago in the Gazette (see photo at left), was brought to the city yesterday by G.E. Kinkaid, the explorer who found the great underground citadel of the Grand Canyon during a trip from Green River, Wyoming, down the\nColorado, in a wooden boat, to Yuma, several months ago.\nAccording to the story related to the Gazette by Mr. Kinkaid, the archaeologists of the Smithsonian Institute, which is financing the expeditions, have made discoveries which almost conclusively prove that the race which\ninhabited this mysterious cavern, hewn in solid rock by human hands, was of oriental origin, possibly from Egypt, tracing back to Ramses. If their theories are borne out by the\ntranslation of the tablets engraved with hieroglyphics, the mystery of the prehistoric peoples of North America, their ancient arts, who they were and whence they came will be solved.\nEgypt and the Nile, and Arizona and the Colorado will be linked by a historical chain running back to ages, which staggers the wildest fancy of the fictionist. Under the direction of Professor S.A. Jordan, the Smithsonian Institute\nis now prosecuting the most thorough explorations, which will be continued until the last link in the chain is forged.\nNearly a mile underground, about 1480 feet below the surface, the long main passage has been delved into, to find another mammoth chamber from which radiates scores of passageways, like the spokes of a wheel. Several\nhundred rooms have been discovered, reached by passageways running from the main passage, one of them having been explored are 854 feet and another 634 feet. The recent finds include articles, which have never been\nknown as native to this country and doubtless they had their origin in the orient.\nWar weapons, copper instruments, sharp - edged and hard as steel, indicate the high state of civilization reached by these strange people. So interested have the scientists become that preparations are being made to equip\nthe camp for extensive studies, and the force will be increased to thirty or forty persons.\n\"Before going further into the cavern, better facilities for lighting will have to be installed, for the darkness is dense and quite impenetrable for the average flashlight. In order to avoid being lost, wires are being strung from the\nentrance to all passageways leading directly to large chambers. How far this cavern extends no one can guess, but it is now the belief of many that what has already been explored is merely the \"barracks\", to use an American\nterm, for the soldiers, and that far into the underworld will be found the main communal dwellings of the families. The perfect ventilation of the cavern, the steady draught that blows through, indicates that it has another outlet to\nthe surface.\"\nMr. Kinkaid was the first white child born in Idaho and has been an explorer and hunter all his life, thirty years having been in the service of the Smithsonian Institute. Even briefly recounted, his history sounds fabulous, almost\ngrotesque:\n\"First, I would impress that the cavern is nearly inaccessible. The entrance is 1,486 feet down the sheer canyon wall. It is located on government land and no visitor will be allowed there under penalty of trespass.\"\nThe scientist's wish to work unmolested, without fear of the archaeological discoveries being disturbed by curio or relic hunters. A trip there would be fruitless, and the visitor would be sent on his way.\n\"The story of how I found the cavern has been related, but in a paragraph: I was journeying down the Colorado River in a boat, alone, looking for minerals. Some forty two miles up the river from the El Tovar Crystal canyon, I saw\non the east wall, stains in the sedimentary formation about 2,000 feet above the river bed. There was no trail to this point, but I finally reached it with great difficulty. Above a shelf, which hid it from view from the river, was the\nmouth of the cave.\"\n\"There are steps leading from this entrance some thirty yards to what was, at the time the cavern was inhabited, the level of the river. When I saw the chisel marks on the wall inside the entrance, I became interested, securing\nmy gun and went in.\"\n\"During that trip, I went back several hundred feet along the main passage till I came to the crypt in which I discovered the mummies. One of these I stood up and photographed by flashlight. I gathered a number of relics, which I\ncarried down the Colorado to Yuma, from whence I shipped them to Washington with details of the discovery. Following this, the explorations were undertaken.\"\n\"The main passageway is about 12 feet wide, narrowing to nine feet toward the farther end. About 57 feet from the entrance, the first side-passages branch off to the right and left, along which, on both sides, are a number of\nrooms about the size of ordinary living rooms of today, though some are 30 by 40 feet square. These are entered by oval-shaped doors and are ventilated by round air spaces through the walls into the passages. The walls are\nabout three feet six inches in thickness. The passages are chiseled or hewn as straight as could be laid out by an engineer. The ceilings of many of the rooms converge to a center.\"\n\"The side-passages near the entrance run at a sharp angle from the main hall, but toward the rear, they gradually reach a right angle in direction.\"\n\"Over a hundred feet from the entrance is the cross-hall, several hundred feet long in which is found the idol, or image, of the people's god, sitting cross-legged, with lotus flower or lily in each hand. The cast of the face is\noriental, the carving shows a skillful hand, and the entire object is remarkably well preserved, as is everything in this cavern.\"\n\"The idol almost resembles Buddha, though the scientists are not certain as to what religious worship it represents. Taking into consideration everything found thus far, it is possible that this worship most resembles the\nancient people of Tibet.\"\n\"Surrounding this idol are smaller images, some very beautiful in form; others crooked-necked and distorted shapes, symbolical probably, of good and evil. There are two large cactus with protruding arms, one on each side of\nthe dais on which the God squats. All this is carved out of hard rock resembling marble. In the opposite corner of this cross-hall were found tools of all descriptions, made of copper.\"\n\"These people undoubtedly knew the lost art of hardening this metal, which has been sought by chemists for centuries without result. On a bench running around the workroom was some charcoal and other material probably\nused in the process. There is also slag and stuff similar to matte, showing that these ancients smelted ores, but so far, no trace of where or how this was done has been discovered, nor the origin of the ore.\"\n\"Among the other finds are vases or urns and cups of copper and gold, made very artistic in design. The pottery work includes enameled ware and glazed vessels. Another passageway leads to granaries such as are found in\nthe oriental temples. They contain seeds of various kinds. One very large storehouse has not yet been entered, as it is twelve feet high and can be reached only from above. Two copper hooks extend on the edge, which\nindicates that some sort of ladder was attached. These grannies are rounded, as the materials of which they are constructed, I think is a very hard cement. A Gray metal is also found in this cavern, which puzzles the scientists,\nfor its identity has not been established. It resembles platinum.\"\n\"Strewn promiscuously over the floor everywhere are what people call 'cats eyes,' a yellow stone of no great value. Each one is engraved with the head of the Malay type.\"\n\"On all the urns, or walls over doorways, and tablets of stone which were found by the image are the mysterious hieroglyphics, the key to which the Smithsonian Institute hopes yet to discover. The engraving on the tablets\nprobably has something to do with the religion of the people. Similar hieroglyphics have been found in southern Arizona. Among the pictorial writings, only two animals are found. One is of prehistoric type.\"\n\"The tomb or crypt in which the mummies were found is one of the largest of the chambers, the walls slanting back at an angle of about 35 degrees. On these are tiers of mummies, each one occupying a separate hewn shelf.\nAt the bead of each is a small bench, on which is found copper cups and pieces of broken swords. Some of the mummies are covered with clay, and all are wrapped in a bark fabric. The urns or cups on the lower tiers are\ncrude, while as the higher shelves are reached, the urns are finer in design, showing a later stage of civilization.\"\n\"It is worthy of note that all the mummies examined so far have proved to be male, no children or females being buried here. This leads to the belief that this exterior section was the warriors' barracks. Among the discoveries,\nno bones of animals have been found, no skins, no clothing, no bedding. Many of the rooms are bare but for water vessels. One room, about 40 by 700 feet, was probably the main dining hall, for cooking utensils are found\n\"What these people lived on is a problem, though it is presumed that they came south in the winter and farmed in the valleys, going back north in the summer. Upwards of 50,000 people could have lived in the caverns\ncomfortably. One theory is that the present Indian tribes found in Arizona are descendants of the serfs or slaves of the people, which inhabited the cave. Undoubtedly a good many thousand of years before the Christian era a\npeople lived here which reached a high stage of civilization. The chronology of human history is full of gaps.\"\nProfessor Jordan much enthused over the discoveries and believes that the find will prove of incalculable value in archaeological work.\n\"One thing I have not spoken of, may be of interest. There is one chamber, the passageway to which is not ventilated, and when we approached it a deadly, snaky smell struck us. Our light would not penetrate the gloom, and\nuntil stronger ones are available, we will not know what the chamber contains. Some say snakes, but other boo-hoo'd this idea and think it may contain a deadly gas or chemicals used by the ancients. No sounds are heard, but\nit smells snaky just the same.\"\n\"The whole underground installation gives one of shaky nerves the creeps. The gloom is like a weight on one's shoulders, and our flashlights and candles only make the darkness blacker. Imagination can revel in conjectures\nand ungodly daydreams back through the ages that have elapsed till the mind reels dizzily in space.\"\nIn connection with this story, it is notable that among the Hopi Indians the tradition is told that their ancestors once lived in an underworld in the Grand Canyon till dissension arose between the good and the bad, the people of\none heart and people of two hearts.\nMachetto, who was their chief, counseled them to leave the under world, but there was no way out. The chief then caused a tree to grow up and pierce the roof of the underworld, and then the people of one heart climbed out.\nThey tarried by Paisisvai (Red River), which is the Colorado, and grew grain and corn. They sent out a message to the Temple of the Sun, asking the blessing of peace, good will and rain for people of one heart. That\nmessenger never returned, but today at the Hopi villages at sundown can be seen the old men of the tribe out on the housetops gazing toward the sun, looking for the messenger. When he returns, their lands and ancient\ndwelling place will be restored to them. That is the tradition.\nAmong the engravings of animals in the cave is seen the image of a heart over the spot where it is located. The legend was learned by W.E. Rollins the artist, during a year spent with the Hopi Indians. There are two theories of\nthe origin of the Egyptians. One is that they came from Asia; another that the racial cradle was in the upper Nile region. Heeren, an Egyptologist, believed in the Indian origin of the Egyptians. The discoveries in the Grand Canyon\nmay throw further light on human evolution and prehistoric ages.\n><><><> end of article <><><><\n\u00c2\u00a9 2001 Xpeditions Magazine\nAre you looking for a specific topic on one of my sites.

        "raw_content": "About Campaign in a Box. Helping first-time candidates run first-rate campaigns.\nA CAMPAIGN PLAN THAT TELLS YOUR STORY\nWe see campaigns as a way to tell a story - a story about you. We craft your story - then you tell your story by talking to voters one on one. We put together your campaign plan, then guide you in implementing it throughout your campaign.\nI started Campaign In A Box to help first-time candidates who would make great public servants. Many have a vision for their city, but don't know where to start with their campaign.\nI believe there are many good people out there who would make great public servants. They care deeply about their communities and have a vision for their cities.\nI also believe there are many incumbents who need to be replaced. Some have simply been in office too long. Some are ineffective and some use their office for personal gain rather than putting the community they represent first.\nI started Campaign In A Box to help the first-time candidates who would make great public servants. Many have a vision for their city, but don\u2019t know where to start with their campaign.\nIf you are running for local office, you have a great opportunity. You have the opportunity to connect with your constituents one on one, even without costly television ads to get your message across. And with new campaign technologies, you also have the opportunity to use the tools congressional campaigns use at a fraction of their cost just a few years ago.\nThe campaign plan we develop for you will be central to your campaign. We talk to you about who you are and why you're running, then create a campaign plan that walks you through your campaign, step by step.\nThe campaign plan includes a website, how to set up your door to door program and the materials needed for it, a press kit, election calendar and everything else you need to run your campaign from start to finish.\nI began working on political campaigns in 2004 after graduating from the University of Washington. Each campaign season I had friends running for city council or another local office that I wished I had more time to help.\nSo in 2013, I started Campaign In A Box as a way to do that - to bring some of the tools that the big campaigns use to help first-time candidates for municipal office run first-rate campaigns at a price they could manage.\nYour Campaign Plan\nYour Door to Door Program\nYour Campaign Calendar & Flowchart\nread more about what's in the box\nMost local, municipal candidates can't afford a consultant. I started Campaign In A Box to help those candidates.\nWe work with candidates running for city council, school board, sheriff and nearly every other municipal office you can think of.\nOur goal is to help every candidate down the ballot run a first-rate campaign. I'd love to talk to you about your campaign, whether it's this year or a couple of years down the road.",

        "raw_content": "\u201cLive the Dream\u201d event celebrates legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.\nAlexander County residents gathered to hear Mr. Chaz Beasley, NC House District 92 representative, speak during the Martin Luther King, Jr., Celebration on Monday, January 16, 2017, held at The Hiddenite Center. Approximately 175 residents gathered at the Hiddenite Arts & Heritage Center to hear Mr. Chaz Beasley and other local persons: Mayor George Holleman, County Commission Chairman Milton Campbell, Rev. Macy Jones, Rev. Sterling Howard, Mr. Henry Gregory, Mr. Thomas McCauley, Ms. Vallie Chen, The Moore Family Singers, Ms. Miranda Burgin and Helen Chestnut were participants in the program.\nRep. Beasley related that he was proud of his roots in Alexander County as the son of Ms. Sherry Bruner, grandson of the late Alexander (Sonny) Bruner and Shirley Barker Bruner; great-grandson of Mr. Stacey Barker and Lois Mayes Barker. Beasley completed his undergraduate education at Harvard, and graduate degree at Georgetown Law School. He works as an attorney in Charlotte.\nMr. Beasley took the oath of office last week as a representative in the NC House District 92 using his great-grandmother\u2019s Bible that was given to him as a child.\nHe noted that celebrating the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was not to remember him as a monument, but that he was real man who had a vision and was a servant.\nA few comments from his speech include: \u201cWe owe it to our families to continue the fight and recognize \u2018It is not about me,\u2019 as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said. Are we going to live a life that\u2019s about us? Or are we going to live a life that\u2019s about the people that we touch in this room? The Bible talks about take up your cross and follow Jesus. We need to encourage everyone, because this work is too important! Stay strong and be a great inspiration to others.\u201d\n\u201cBrought up in Alexander County, people have stereotypes about us. They think they know us. They think they understand us. They think they know what we\u2019re thinking, before any words come out of our mouths. It is important to us that we remember that every single child in Alexander County can do exactly what I did, as what they\u2019re growing up the same way I grew up. Every single child in this county can live up to the fullest of their potential,\u201d said Rep. Beasley.\nDr. King\u2019s \u201clegacy is still being fulfilled every day. There is no end to this game. There is no finish in this work,\u201d said Beasley. \u201cWe cannot disrespect the memory of our ancestors by thinking that we can skate along on all the work that they did. We cannot disrespect our ancestors who did all this, knowing that we would take the baton and go farther than they could have ever been.\u201d\n\u201cWe have to remember that, when we live this life, it is about the lives that we also touch. It is about the impact that we also make. It is about leaving the space better than we found it,\u201d Rep. Beasley commented.\n\u201cWe must all decide when it becomes more important that we do what is right than what is convenient. Convenience can be a killer. Complancency can kill not only you, but can kill the next generation,\u201d he added. \u201cBut perseverance can keep you pushing on.\u201d\nThe audience gave Beasley a standing ovation at the conclusion of his address.\nRev. Sterling Howard, President of the Alexander County Chapter of NAACP thanked the crowd for attending. Howard noted that the day he left Dr. King\u2019s funeral in Atlanta, it changed his life. He returned to Alexander County. Soon after, Howard and Jim Westfield staged the first sit-in (at the former Tiny Diner) in Alexander County.\nWritten by the Editor, Taylorsville Times.

        "title": "Cincinnati Blog: Cranley Attempts to Smear Opponent, Ends Up Getting Burned",
        "raw_content": "Cranley Attempts to Smear Opponent, Ends Up Getting Burned\nJohn Cranley will say anything to get elected. This has been demonstrated by the number of lies he says about the value of the Streetcar and by the many times he promises to use the money for the Streetcar for someone's neighborhood, whiling knowing damn well he can't do that, legally.\nThis time Cranley and his minions decided to undertake a coordinated effort (COAST and Mary KKKuhl were on board too) to smear Qualls. Well after a press conference and an email exchange with the Ethics board Cranleys was proven wrong.\nWhat is so troubling about this latest instance is the Cranley should have known better. He should have know that the actions Qualls was taking were fully within the ethics rules. He knows what idea that the articled quoted:\n\u201cIt would be unreasonable to hold that lawyers, accountants, insurance agents, and other professionals have an interest in the contracts of their business clients.\nJohn knows this. He was a lawyer while working on council. He has not come forth with any documents saying that the business deals he worked on as a lawyer were clear of ethics violations. Additionally, the information on the property sales, are public documents. His claim of her hiding these actions is preposterous. He's the one who keeps his business dealings in private, hidden from the public.\nMore to the point, he only came forward with one document, after sitting on it for months, that covered the company for which he as an owner and that he was working on getting funding from a TIF entity that he help create and voted to enact, all of this while being a sitting member of City Council. Instead of being investigated, he appear to think it over, waited nearly six months and then resigned. No one ever fully and officially reviewed his actions in office and John never came forward to demonstrate that none of his prior actions violated the ethics rules.\nAs long as John wants to champion transparency, why doesn't he submit to questions from an enterprising journalist and answer about his past. Here are few questions that could be asked: Did John ever vote on zoning in any area of East Price Hill? Did John vote to recognize the Incline District or did he leave that to his associate, former Council member Cole? When did John begin conversations about joining the company he later resigned from Council over, was it before or after he introduced the motion to establish a TIF entity for East Price Hill? How much money did John have to invest in the company in order to become an owner? How much money has John's business partners donated to his political campaign?\nJohn has gall, I give him that, but he's a dishonest and hypocritical politician. That's often assumed in politicians, but in John's case he is acting out that dishonesty. It is a small victory that he is being called on the carpet for it. The problem is that he and his surrogates won't back down. I expect to hear these same claims repeated over and over again, likely via word of mouth on social media. Each time they are repeated, they are clear lies, especially when they come from Cranley's supporters who are current and former elected officials. They know better, but will backing up John's say anything to get elected mantra.",

        "raw_content": "A person\u2019s name represents his or her identity, gender, and family ties. A name can sometimes be a major issue with confusing rules, or an unwanted attachment to the past.\nMany people have questions about names, such as:\n* How do we get our names?\n* What are our choices when naming our child?\n* How can we change a name?\n* How can we change a child\u2019s name?\n* Now that I am married, can I give my child my new spouse\u2019s last name?\n* Can I change my name when I marry?\n* If I change my name when I marry, how do I get my birth name back?\nIn Prince Edward Island, the law about first names (or given names), and last names (or surnames), is covered by two pieces of legislation - the Vital Statistics Act and the Change of Name Act. This pamphlet will explain some of the law in this area.\nTo reach Vital Statistics, you can call 902-838-0880 or 1-877-320-1253.\nThe names we are given at birth are selected by others - by our parents or guardians or, if they cannot decide, by the laws of the province. The birth of a child and the child\u2019s chosen names must be registered within 30 days of the child\u2019s birth. This is usually done at the hospital when the child is born. A Statement of Birth is filled out giving information about the parents and the baby, including the baby\u2019s name. A birth certificate showing the name and birth details can then be requested from the Division of Vital Statistics, which is part of the P.E.I. Department of Health and Wellness.\nThe law about children\u2019s last names is contained in the PEI Vital Statistics Act. Parents can choose to give their child:\neither parents\u2019 last name;\na combination of the last names of the parents, in either order; or\na completely different last name from either parent.\nFor example, if Jamie Smit h and Taylor Jones have a son, John, they can register him as John Smith, John Jones, John Jones-Smith or John Smith-Jones or John Green.\nIf only one parent\u2019s information is entered on the Statement of Birth, that parent chooses the child\u2019s names. If both parents\u2019 information is included on the Statement of Birth, they choose the child\u2019s names together. If the parents cannot agree about the name, the law says the child will be registered with a combination of both parents\u2019 last names, in alphabetical order. A combination last name can be made up of two names only.\nIf the second parent\u2019s information is included on the Statement of Birth at a later time, the parents can change the child\u2019s last name at that time by filling out a form and paying the required fee at the Vital Statistics office.\nWhen a child is adopted, new names chosen by the adopting parents are usually given to the child as part of the adoption order. A new birth certificate is issued in the new name by Vital Statistics and records are changed to show that the adopting parents are the parents of the child. The old birth records are then sealed and are not available to anyone, except by an order of the court.\nLast Name of A Married Person\nThere is no law saying that a person must take his or her spouse\u2019s last name when marrying - this is a choice. When a person marries, he or she may keep his or her birth name, his or her current last name, use a combination name, or adopt his or her spouse\u2019s last name. For example, when Morgan Smith marries Pat Jones she or he can choose to be called Morgan Smith, Morgan Jones, or Morgan Smith-Jones.\nA person can change his or her mind and adopt his or her spouse\u2019s name or return to his or her birth name any time after his or her marriage. A person can use his or her birth surname for professional purposes and his or her married surname for all other purposes. In this case it may be a good idea to have identification documents in one name only and to sign all legal documents in that name.\nA person who has taken his or her spouse\u2019s last name can continue to use that name after a separation and a divorce, and even after a remarriage to someone else.\nUnder our traditional common law, which is not written down, people can call themselves by any name they want, as long as they are not doing it for illegal purposes, such as impersonating someone else or avoiding creditors. However, a person will not be able to get identification documents in that name without going through one of the methods of changing a name explained below.\nThere are two methods of changing an adult\u2019s name \u2013 by repute (or reputation) and by making an application to Vital Statistics for a legal change of name.\nBy Repute or Reputation\nWhen someone marries and takes their spouse\u2019s last name, he or she is changing her last name by repute. This is also one way either spouse can go back to using a birth name or a former name. It is not a way to acquire a name you have never had before. For instance, if John Smith wished to change his name to Henry Brown and get his identification documents changed, he would not be able to use this method. To change a name by repute, you begin to use the new name and inform your friends, bank, employer and businesses you deal with about the change. You will also need to have all your identification cards changed, such as your passport, social insurance card, driver\u2019s license, and health services card. You will need to go to the government agency that issues each card. Each agency has its own rules about changing names on its documents and may charge a fee. You may have to support your request by producing a document with your chosen name on it \u2013 for example, your birth certificate will show your former name or birth name, or your marriage certificate will show your spouse\u2019s name, should you choose to use that.\nThe second way of changing your name is known as a legal change of name and should be used if you are changing your name to one you have never used before. If you wish, you can use this method instead of \u201cby repute\u201d to go back to a previous name.\nTo change your name by this method you make an application to Vital Statistics and pay the required fee. If you were born on PEI, the change of name is recorded on your Statement of Birth. You can get a new birth certificate in your new name by applying to Vital Statistics. If you were born somewhere else, a notice of the change of name will be sent to the proper office or department where your birth was registered. You can make contact with that office to see if you can get new documents.\nA notice of change of name will be filed by Vital Statistics with various offices, such as Family Court, the Registry of Deeds for your county, the province or country where you were born, the Registrar of Motor Vehicles, the Sheriff, municipal police, and the Director of Maintenance Enforcement. A notice will be published in the Royal Gazette, a government publication for legal notices. You may be able to use the change of name documents to get your name changed on other identification cards and at your bank, workplace and other businesses you deal with.\nThe law about changing children\u2019s names is in the provincial Change of Name Act. Parents or guardians of children can make an application to Vital Statistics to have a child\u2019s name changed. The application must include written consent of any other person who has legal custody of the child and any parent who is entitled to have access to the child. If the other person refuses to consent or can\u2019t be contacted, the person asking for the name change can apply to court for an order saying consent is not required. This may be granted in some situations \u2013 for example, if the other parent is not involved with the child. If you are in this situation, you should speak with a lawyer.\nChildren 12 years of age or older must provide written consent for a name change. The child can sign a form at Vital Statistics saying that he or she wants his or her name changed. Once young people reach the age of 18 years, they can change their name without their parents\u2019 permission and without asking the court (see \u201cChanging A Name\u201d above.)\nIf you wish to change the name of your child you should contact Vital Statistics (902-838-0880 or 1-877-320-1253). You can also visit https://www.princeedwardisland.ca/en/topic/birth-marriage-and-death-certificates.\nChanging a Child's First Name\nIf a child acquires a different first (or given) name from the one that is registered on the Statement of Birth during his or her first ten years, the parents or guardians can apply to Vital Statistics to have the name changed. This is considered to be an amendment to an original name. A baptismal certificate or other documents obtained before the age of ten, showing the new name, must accompany the application. If the Director of Vital Statistics is satisfied that the given names were changed within the child\u2019s first ten years, a change is made to the Statement of Birth and a new birth certificate may be obtained. There is a fee for the amendment and for the birth certificate.\nThis information has been prepared by Community Legal Information Association of Prince Edward Island, Inc.

        "raw_content": "Solar power is providing new economic opportunities for East Africans\nA new report has highlighted the new economic benefits to households in East Africa from off-grid solar power.\nThe report was released this week by GOGLA, the non-profit trade body for off-grid solar power.\nThe researchers collated data from 2,300 solar owners in Kenya, Mozambique, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda to work out the impact of new renewable installation on their livelihood.\nNearly 60 percent of respondents reported an increase of economic activity within the first three months of using a home solar system. This includes increased income, job opportunities and more work time.\nAn astonishing 94 percent said that their quality of life had improved thanks to the off-grid system with 86 percent stating that they have greater disposable income. Equally high levels were reported for the availability of light and the health improvements seen by family members.\nThe result of clean, free and reliable power has opened new doors for many communities, providing opportunities to start new businesses and extend working hours. Solar is also helping households ditch expensive and life-threatening kerosene lamps, currently in use by millions of people in the developing world; 90 percent of those polled said they had now replaced the toxic lamps.\nKoen Peters, Executive Director of GOGLA said the new report shows \u201cthe net economic and social benefits off-grid solar are a huge opportunity for national governments of the developing world.\u201d\n\u201cGovernments tell us they are interested in jobs and economic impact. As this report shows, off-grid solar is directly delivering such impacts and significantly. We call on policy makers, treasury and energy departments to work together with off-grid companies, banks and institutions to breakdown barriers to off-grid solar and build a pathway to accelerate energy access,\u201d he added.\nThe work was funded by the UK\u2019s Department for International Development, which has raised over \u00a34 billion to support climate adaptation and mitigation in the developing world.\nSource: GOGLA\nPhoto Credit: Power Africa\nEU agrees deal on single-use plastic ban\nEurope, Circular Economy, Technology",

If you know them, you will draw the correct conclusion. There are many types of electric heaters with different functions and efficiency ratings in the market. To go back to the basics, what is an electric heater? Well, it\u2019s a device that uses electrical resistance to convert electricity into heat. They work mainly by converting electricity into heat through an electrical resistance in the heater, and an electric current flowing through the resistor converts electrical energy into thermal energy.\nSome of the benefits of electric heating are obvious spend time with family while using an electric heater, electricity is available everywhere and does not require fuel storage. It is also important to understand the safety issues when buying an Electric Heaters with a cup of tea. New models of electric heaters must pass rigorous safety tests to ensure safe operation. Wire mesh, tilt switch, automatic shutoff control, and thermostat controls are safety features you should look for.\nAlthough all electric heaters use the same basic principle to generate heat, there are differences in the way they deliver that heat to the environment.\nIt is advisable to make personal consultations to avoid cheating. Some people may tell you that portable electric heaters are very efficient. Others will say that electric heaters for heat pumps are the best. There are also some sources that say that to determine their efficiency, they are simply reduced to basic economics. How high is your annual electricity bill compared to other heaters with natural gas or oil? You can calculate the efficiency of a heater. Simply multiply the cost per kilowatt-hour by the number of kilowatts that the heater uses and the efficiency of the heater.\nElectric heaters are classified as radiant, conductive or convective. Depending on the different types on the market, you must bear in mind that understanding their technical functioning can play an important role in determining the efficiency of this type of heating element.\nThey can have a central electric heating system or a mobile space heater that can be radiant or convective. You can also have a plate that uses a mixture of convection and heat conduction. There is also underground heat pump technology that many people consider the most efficient.\nElectric heaters are passive or active, depending on their effectiveness and performance. They are 100% effective in sending and distributing heat where needed. Its passive heating is subject to the positioning and equipment of the rooms of the house. It is based on the natural air currents in the room. An active heater is an electric heater that can keep it warm at the proper temperature. Provide the right amount of heat where heat is needed to provide your family with warmth and comfort.\nWhen it comes to space heating, the use of an electric heater can be practical and energy efficient if the overhead costs in your area are low. Let\u2019s say that its sources are hydroelectric, solar, nuclear or wind. But if your utility company charges you high electricity costs, even if your heater is efficient in its performance, your utility bills will be expensive if compared to a propane heater. Your option to save or reduce your high electricity bill can be to improve your waterproofing and insulation of your walls, doors, windows, ceilings, and attics, etc.\nOf course, if you have someone in your family who has an allergen or a hypersensitivity to certain chemicals, using an electric heater is more efficient because it is free of indoor air pollution.

Although the ay package for the profession is also fulfilling, it reaches a point where money is not really a guiding principle to your happiness.. Your \u201cme\u201d time away from your career is even better.\nWhen studying at the degree level, it is one course that involves both practical and theory work. The time is never enough for medical students. I remember when I had to undergo through an emergency caesarian section, one of the students was ever by my bedside taking my history and writing medical notes from the time I was admitted to the time I was discharged, which was almost after three weeks. I wondered if this girl even ad time t attend classes. Little did I know I was part of her exams until when she had to do an hour medical presentation before the doctors (who happen to be the lecturers)\nOn a good note, this is a call rather than a profession. Imagine spending all this time and effort on a patient and finally ends up dying. You have no option but to let them go.

The reward for all this effort is a hefty package with additional benefits from your employer. You can as well become an entrepreneur as long as you have a practicing license. You have to be keen when pursuing this route because of diverse policies from country to country.\nIn addition, you have all the emotional, spiritual, psychological and financial satisfaction when you handle this career with all the professionalism it deserves.

South Africa's Competition Commission also approved the transaction in October 2016.\nThe deal is now expected to close in the first quarter of 2017 and will also see South African investment group Royal Bafokeng Holdings (RBH) take a 30% stake in Neotel as part of a previous agreement with Liquid Telecom.\nLiquid Telecom , a privately owned pan-African telecoms group that is majority owned by Econet Global, is intent on building Africa's largest single fiber network and now has operations in Botswana, DRC, Kenya, Lesotho, Mauritius, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, UK, Zambia and Zimbabwe.\nThrough the Neotel acquisition, the company, which landed two trophies at this year's AfricaCom awards, will be able to expand its network to 40,000km of cross border, national and metro fiber networks across 12 countries.\nNic Rudnick, group CEO of Liquid Telecom, said the combined companies \"will create an unparalleled footprint covering key markets across the continent, giving Liquid Telecom a significant competitive advantage through the breadth, depth and flexibility of our consolidated networks.\"\nLiquid Telecom group CEO Nic Rudnick believes adding Neotel will give his company \"a significant competitive advantage through the breadth, depth and flexibility of our consolidated networks.\"\nThe approval of the deal marks Liquid Telecom's second acquisition this week after it received regulatory approval for the acquisition of Raha in Tanzania for an undisclosed sum. (See Liquid Telecom Expands Into Tanzania With Raha Acquisition.)\nIn October, it also established a joint venture with Botswana Power Corporation (BPC) that enables the network operator to lease excess optical fiber from BPC under an Indefeasible Right of Use Agreement (IRUA).\nSince its launch in 2006, Neotel, which had been a target of Vodacom until the deal collapsed in March this year, has invested over ZAR7 billion ($502 million) in a nationwide backbone fiber network connecting the top 40 cities and towns in South Africa. The company also operates two data centers in Johannesburg and Cape Town and has fully redundant backhaul fiber to landing stations with access to all five of the international subsea cables serving South Africa (SAT-3, SAFE, SEACOM, EASSy and WACS).\n\u2014 Anne Morris, Associate Editor, Connecting Africa",

        "raw_content": "Home / Travel & Leisure Section / Hawaii / Hawaii Travel Tips / Planning Your Affordable Hawaii Vacation\nBy: Jon Arnold\nA Hawaii vacation is rated as the number one dream vacation by people all over the world. One of the reasons for that is because of its overall atmosphere of peace, calm, and relaxing serenity. You have the white sandy beaches, beautiful clear blue skies and the crystal clear waters to enjoy every day, so it is no wonder that people across the world enjoy the experience of a Hawaii vacation. It is something you need to do at least once, although if you do it once, chances are high that you will come back again. But of course you need to determine how to fit that into your vacation budget.\nOne method used by many tourists planning their Hawaii vacation is to check with travel agencies who offer package deals. These package deals can bundle various components of your trip into a single package, making it significantly less expensive than it would be if you bought them separately. For example, a typical package might include airfare, accommodations, a helicopter tour and a volcano excursion. You can mix and match these packages to suit your tastes. Considering that many of these activities are things you would do anyway, this is a great way to save money in the process.\nJust think about it for a moment. If you are going to take a Hawaii vacation, you are not going to just lie on the beach every day, are you? Of course not, especially not when Hawaii offers so many different activities that you can enjoy, some of which cannot be enjoyed anywhere else on the planet. You may want to check out the many scenic views, take a helicopter ride, take a volcano excursion, and learn how to surf or para-sail, or maybe even take in a few rounds of championship golf at some of the best golf courses known to man. It all costs money, so finding a package deal that includes some of these types of things can save you some big money.\nYou cannot believe this is possible? Believe me, it is possible and people are doing it every day. One of the biggest costs you will have is airfare and accommodations, but with a bit of research and due diligence, you can find lodging under $100 a night. You may also want to consider a Hawaiian bed and breakfast for about $50 a night, where it could be situated amongst the mountains of Hawaii and offering you an incredible peaceful and romantic setting, while all the activities that Hawaii can offer you are just a short distance away.\nIt\u2019s there right in front of you for the taking, then sweetening the deal by possibly getting free airfare through frequent flier miles can make for a very inexpensive vacation. Hard to fathom considering a Hawaii vacation used to cost $2000-$5000 sometimes just for the accommodations years ago. However, today it is no longer a dream and has now become a reality for so many couples and families.\nWe realize it\u2019s an unbelievable feeling to think that you could be watching the sunset on an island in Hawaii, sipping down tropical drinks, and never wanting to leave. Where helicopter rides are an everyday way of life and some of the best seafood in the world is eaten in their local establishments. Put it all in perspective and you start to understand that it\u2019s time to stop thinking about just dreaming about taking this trip, and start making the necessary plans to make it happen.\nFor more information and additional insights about planning your Hawaii Vacation please visit our web site at http://www.hawaiivacationsuggestions.com\ncheap hawaii vacationshawaiihawaii vacation packages\n\u2190 Previous Story Oahu, Hawaii Day Trip\nNext Story \u2192 Hawaii \u2013 The Dream Destination",

The election was judged deeply flawed by local and international observers.\nNigeria oil reserves down 4.8% due to lull in exploration: DPR\nNigeria's crude oil reserves stood at 31.81 billion barrels at the end of\nthe second quarter, down 4.8% year on year due to the lull in exploration\nactivities by oil companies operating in the country, the Department of\nPetroleum Resources said in a report released Wednesday.\n\"During the period under review...oil reserves was at 31.81 billion\nbarrels of oil. Compared to same period last year, the oil reserves dropped by\n1.6 billion barrels or 4.79%,\" the DPR reported said.\n\"The decrease was due to companies relenting in exploration activities\nand full field studies but rather concentrating on development drilling and\nproduction,\" the DPR stated.\nForeign oil companies including Shell, Chevron and Eni that produce the\nbulk of Nigeria's crude oil have been upfront about the fact that they were\nwithholding investment in exploration due to the controversy surrounding\nNigeria's bid to introduce new petroleum legislation.\nShell said earlier this year that more than $40 billion of investments in\nthe Nigerian oil and gas industry was at risk because of the lopsided\nPetroleum Industry Bill, which in its present form leaves the oil companies\nwith little scope for profit from their investments.\nDPR, the nation's oil industry monitor, further alerted that Africa's top\noil producer was depleting its oil reserves at the rate of 2.81% based on\nestimated annual production volume of 894.79 million barrels, with the\nremaining oil reserves indicating a life index of 35.55 years.\nThe DPR statistics showed that Nigeria's oil production including\ncondensates averaged 2.35 million b/d in the second quarter 2010, with the\nhighest output of 2.405 million b/d achieved in June.\nThe country recorded production shut-ins of 274,915 b/d of oil due to\nShell Posts Higher Profit on Oil Prices, Production\nhttp://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-07-29/shell-profit-advances-on-oil-prices-as-output-held-back-in-canada-nigeria.html\nRoyal Dutch Shell Plc, Europe\u2019s largest oil company, posted a 15 percent increase in second- quarter profit on higher oil prices and production as it exceeded a target for cost savings.\nNet income rose to $4.39 billion from $3.82 billion a year earlier, The Hague-based Shell said today in a statement. Excluding one-time items and inventory changes, earnings beat analyst estimates.\nPeter Voser, in his second year as chief executive officer, expects to double asset sales to as much as $8 billion by the end of 2011. Cost savings of $3.5 billion beat an earlier target by about 15 percent and were completed early, resulting in 7,000 job reductions 18 months ahead of schedule.\n\u201cOverall, it\u2019s a reasonable performance,\u201d Jason Kenney, an Edinburgh-based analyst at ING Wholesale Banking, said by phone.\nThe results follow a record loss for BP after Shell\u2019s close rival set aside about $30 billion earlier this week to pay for cleanup costs and liabilities arising from the Macondo well disaster. Shell will study any assets put up for sale by BP, Voser said on a conference call.\nExcluding one-time items and inventory changes, Shell\u2019s earnings were $4.21 billion. That beat the $4.08 billion median estimate of 14 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Production rose 5 percent to 3.11 million barrels of oil equivalent a day.\nVoser cautioned that the outlook for earnings and cashflow remain uncertain due to \u201cmixed signals\u201d in the global economy.\n\u201cOil prices have remained firm so far this year, but refining margins, oil products demand and natural gas spot prices all remain under pressure,\u201d he said in the statement.\nShell\u2019s Class A shares traded in London fell 0.2 percent to 1,783.5 pence. The stock is down 5.2 percent this year, compared with a 31 percent decline for BP, which at one point lost more than half its market value on concerns over the mounting cost of containing the leak.\nVoser is targeting hard-to-reach rock formations in Australia, China and the U.S, as well as projects in Qatar, to boost production growth. As much as 40 percent of the company\u2019s capital spending in the next few years has been earmarked for the Asia Pacific region. This year has already seen startups in the Gulf of Mexico and Brazil with Perdido and the BC-10 project, while the Sakhalin project in Russia has beaten production goals.\nProducers including Shell face higher costs following a U.S. clampdown on offshore drilling arising from the oil spill. Shell has the most rigs affected by the ban. \u201cOur estimate for the full-year impact of the moratorium is around $200 million after tax,\u201d Chief Financial Officer Simon Henry told investors on a conference call.\nThe company idled five floating rigs and two platform rigs in the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska, leading to a charge of $56 million in the second quarter, Henry said. Rig rates and services were renegotiated and in some cases cut by 60 percent to 70 percent because of the moratorium, he said. Production from Perdido, shut down in April for maintenance, will resume in October.\nShell is still seeking to dispose of 15 percent of its refining capacity and is selling retail assets in Africa and Latin America, putting a total of 35 percent of its current retail markets under review. Voser is assessing more than 35 projects that may add 8 billion barrels of oil equivalent resources, boosting production until 2020.\nAdding Gas\nShell, which has been adding more gas than oil to its resources since 2005, expects the share of gas as a proportion of total output to rise to 52 percent in 2012.\nShell\u2019s output at the Athabasca oil sand project in Canada was affected by maintenance. The unit restarted last month. Production was also disrupted by the suspension of pumping at the offshore EA field in Nigeria.\nCrude prices averaged $78.05 a barrel in New York in the three months ending June, an increase of 31 percent from a year earlier.\nRefining margins are picking up after averaging $5.49 in the second quarter from $3.08 in the first three months of the year, according to BP\u2019s Global Indicator Margin, a broad measure of the profitability of turning crude into fuels.\nTo contact the reporter on this story: Fred Pals in Amsterdam at fpals@bloomberg.net\nTop 7 suppliers of oil to the US\nhttp://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/100726/top-7-us-oil-importers\nReally big oil: Where does the US get its crude?

Nigeria exports 281,291,000 barrels per year (771,000 barrels per day) to the United States, according to the EIA. But Nigeria is feeling the full brunt of the \"oil curse.\" The vast earnings from oil have not translated into substantial improvements for ordinary Nigerians. People living in the oil-producing Niger Delta area, in particular, are very poor and the environment has been degraded by oil drilling.\nBeginning in 2006, this reality led rebel groups groups to violently protest against the oil pipelines. The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta attacked and kidnapped foreign oil workers. The rebel insurrection are blamed for causing Nigeria's oil production to drop by as much as 20 percent. Furthermore, Nigeria has experienced 2,400 oil spills since 2006, decreasing the industry\u2019s efficiency, according to Reuters.\nAngola Oil\nOil platform situated off Angola's coast.

Local official Billy Nungesser was planning his wedding. Environmental activist Enid Sisskin was preparing a speech about the dangers of offshore drilling.\nThen the oil rig Deepwater Horizon exploded off the coast of Louisiana, and in an instant, life along the Gulf Coast changed for good.\nPete spends her days worrying that the fishing industry may never recover. Nungesser has put his wedding on hold while he sits in meetings and argues with federal officials. And Sisskin continues to talk about the dangers of drilling \u2014 only now, people are listening.\nThe 100 days since the April 20 explosion have been a gut-wrenching time for folks who work, play and live along the Gulf Coast. The Gulf is a sanctuary for some, an employer for others, and now, a tragedy.\nA hundred days ago, business was booming at Barrios Seafood Restaurant in Golden Meadow, La., during Lent, when many of the Roman Catholics in south Louisiana forgo meat on Fridays or altogether. Customers were lined up for meals of crab, shrimp, fish and other seafood delivered hours after being pulled from the Gulf.\nAlicia and Thomas Barrios believed their years of struggling to get the business going were finally paying off.\n\"We were saying, 'If business is this good now, just think what it will be like in the summer,'\" Alicia Barrios said. \"It was more money than we had ever made before in our lives.\"\nThey began sprucing up the restaurant, even adding a patio with visions of customers lingering there this summer. Then the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded and the oil began filling the Gulf.\n\"I'd say about 50 percent of our business was tourist, and they stopped coming immediately,\" Alicia said. \"Seafood got hard to get, the price went up and people are worried about eating it.\"\nThese days, Thomas Barrios is working in the Vessels of Opportunity program, helping BP clean up the spill. Alicia Barrios has had to lay off two of her employees and the adjacent market is only open two days a week.\nShe's also thinking about how to change the menu if the price of seafood keeps going up and it remains scarce.\n\"I guess we could start serving pasta and hamburgers,\" she said. \"But I'm afraid to spend the money on a new sign and menus. To be honest, if it wasn't for the BP check, we'd already be closed.\"\nA hundred days ago, Cherie Pete and her husband, Alfred, were expecting another steady stream of customers at the little store they used her life savings to build on the main road to Venice, La.\nEveryone in town calls the 45-year-old mother of three \"Maw\" anyway, so she decided to name the place Maw's Sandwich and Snack Shop.\nThe store opened last year, attracting a devoted group of locals who came for po-boys and ice cream, plus weekenders who showed up from New Orleans in droves to rent campsites and charter fishing trips.\n\"And all of a sudden, we don't have them coming in,\" she said.\nShe's still doing decent business, still working 14 hour days, but it's not the same. Now most of her customers are contractors and cleanup workers.\n\"We've met people from all over the country, but it's not happy meetings. It's people coming in for work,\" she said. \"It's not a typical exciting day at work for me any more, it's just another day at work.\"\nPete knows the business won't last when the cleanup ends.\n\"I'm just afraid the bottom is going to fall out,\" she says. \"I'm not sure when. You don't know if it's today, or tomorrow or five years from now.\"\nThe Seafood Broker\nA hundred days ago, Darlene Kimball was getting ready for a busy summer at her family's docks in Pass Christian, Miss., waiting for the buyers who would snap up hundreds of pounds of shrimp from the backs of boats, loading them into ice chests and hauling them back to giant freezers.\nNow the place is empty, and the only boats she sees are the ones used by BP contractors cleaning up the spill.\nKimball's family has been in the Mississippi seafood industry since 1930, and she's never wanted to do anything else. But recently the 43-year-old had to do the unthinkable \u2014 draft a resume so she could look for another line of work.\n\"Everything's different,\" she said. \"My life has gone from a fast-paced to nothing.\"\nShe misses the excitement of fishermen calling from the water announcing their latest haul, the awkward tourists trying to negotiate with boat captains for a piece of the catch. Most of all, maybe, she misses the sound of the seagulls circling the boats long before they come into town.\n\"There's nothing around me,\" she said. \"My culture is gone, my livelihood is gone. What my grandfather and father have worked so hard to accomplish is in jeopardy.\"\nA hundred days ago, Florida environmental activist Enid Sisskin was scanning through oil spill data from the Minerals Management Service, preparing a speech on the dangers of offshore drilling.\nThen the rig exploded, and she ended up rewriting the entire thing. She even told a halfhearted joke, about how future discussions of offshore drilling would have to begin with \"a noun, a verb and the words Deepwater Horizon.\"\nBut Sisskin, who teaches in the public health program at University of West Florida, hasn't laughed much these past 100 days. She lives in the coastal community of Gulf Breeze and has long been a vocal opponent of Gulf drilling rigs.\n\"There's a constant knot in the pit of my stomach,\" she said. \"I'm afraid for the future. Are we going to come back? Are our waters going to be clean enough? Are we going to have the sea birds? Can we comfortably say to tourists, come on down and get in the water and eat the fish?\"\nShe's been busy this summer, teaching classes and giving talks to groups on the effects of oil and dispersants on public health.\nThere is one thing she doesn't say in her speeches: I told you so.\n\"This is something I never ever wanted to be able to say,\" she said. \"It's vindication, but what a horrible way to be vindicated.\"\nThe Tourism Mogul\nA hundred days ago, Frank Besson was raking in money at the tourism empire he's built on Grand Isle, a spit of land along the coast where vacationers have flocked for decades. What started with his father's souvenir shop expanded to a daiquiri bar across the street and a restaurant next door.\nOn a good day, he used to make $1,600. The shop's take last Saturday, when the island hosted a benefit concert? A measly $28.18, he says, pointing to the day's receipt.\nHis little monopoly is in shambles these days. The restaurant, known for a homemade pecan glaze that's perfect for chicken fingers, is closed indefinitely. The daiquiri bar opens late each night to a trickle of customers. And most days you can find Besson inside his locked souvenir shop, watching a tiny TV.\nThe only thing that's keeping the business afloat, he said ruefully, is that BP leased two of his rental homes and signed a catering contract with his shuttered restaurant.\nBesson, 61, is still optimistic that business will turn around and he'll be able to reopen his restaurant. But for now, he's found himself in an unusual position. He's actually hoping for a storm.\n\"We want some rough weather so we can disperse and dissolve some of that stuff,\" he said. \"I hate to say it, and I never thought I would say that, but that's what we want.\"\nThe Local Official\nA hundred days ago, Plaquemines Parish President Billy Nungesser was busy with blueprints of fire stations, schools and community centers damaged during Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and still in need of rebuilding. He was planning his wedding to his longtime fiance, which they postponed after the storm.\n\"I had a life,\" Nungesser says.\nNow, his life looks like this: Endless meetings with the Coast Guard. Endless arguments with federal officials and BP workers. And countless media appearances \u2014 he's been on Anderson Cooper so often alongside fellow Cajun James Carville that the trio are like the holy trinity of nighttime cable TV.\nThe new fire stations, schools and community centers have been put on hold. He's seen his mother twice in the past few months \u2014 and she lives right in the coastal Louisiana parish. And then there's the matter of the wedding. That's not happening anytime soon, not until life calms down and the fight is over.\nFor now, he's got a war to wage. That's how he characterizes his region's fight against BP, the federal government, the oil.\n\"A hundred days later, I can't look you in the eye and tell you who's in charge,\" he said. \"I would not want to go to war with this team. Looking back, it's very sad that a lot of marshes and wildlife could have been saved if the federal government and BP had just listened to local people.\"\nA hundred days ago, the Rev. Mike Tran was busy ministering to his flock at the lone Catholic church on Grand Isle.\nWhen he was first assigned, he dragged his feet. It was too small, too isolated and there was too little to do. Boy was he wrong.\nHe arrived in July 2005, weeks before Hurricane Katrina demolished much of the island. Parishioners at Our Lady of the Isle weathered that storm and the others that followed, but the spill has presented a new challenge. It threatens their way of life.\nChurch attendance has been cut in half. Weekly donations are down $1,000. Yet more people than ever are walking up the stilted church's stairs to seek food and money.\nThe morning after the rig explosion, Tran held a mass to honor the 11 victims. Most church members hadn't even heard the news.\nThe last three months have been a whirlwind of prayer, charity and counseling.\n\"People are constantly in fear,\" he said. \"They like to work, not to rely on a business for help. They were able to go out on the Gulf whenever they wanted to feed their families. They were living a worry-free life, knowing that the Gulf would provide.\"\nFoster reported from Golden Meadow and Lush from New Orleans.\nStatic Kill Overview -- Update from BP's Kent Wells\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69voZxB6I98&videos=CTAf43JvRiE\nNigeria's Oil Co: Now Produces 2.2 Million Barrels Of Crude A Day.\nhttp://www.automatedtrader.net/real-time-dow-jones/6263/nigeria039s-oil-co-now-produces-22-million-barrels-of-crude-a-day\nIBADAN, Nigeria -(Dow Jones)- Nigeria's state oil company said Tuesday that it is currently producing 2.2 million barrels of crude a day in all its operations.\n\"Production of crude oil has rebound with the amnesty and post-amnesty policy of the federal government,\" Austen Oniwon, group managing director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corp., or NNPC, said in a statement.\nHe reiterated that the NNPC was solvent enough to meet all its business obligations to Nigerians and its numerous investors.\nLast week, a junior minister said the NNPC was insolvent, but this was promptly denied by the government.\nThe NNPC is in a joint venture partnership with international oil companies operating in Nigeria including Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDSA), Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) and Chevron Corp. (CVX).\nArmed militants in the oil-rich Niger Delta, where nearly all of Nigeria's crude oil is produced, attacked and destroyed oil and gas facilities between 2006 and 2009, cutting the country's output by around 1 million barrels a day, according to officials. An amnesty declared for the militants by late Nigerian President Umaru Yar'Adua stemmed unrest in the region, allowing oil companies to step up oil prospecting and production.\nOniwon said efforts were under way to reposition NNPC. The Nigerian government plans to turn the corporation to an independent business concern that will operate like other oil companies in Europe, the U.S. and Asia.\nNigeria relies on oil production for over 90% of its foreign exchange earnings and about 80% of government revenue.\n-By Obafemi Oredein, Dow Jones Newswires; 234 2 7510489\nAre Oil Producers Nervous About Fall Demand?\nhttp://blogs.wsj.com/source/2010/07/21/are-oil-producers-nervous-about-fall-demand/\nBy Angela Henshall\nGlobal energy demand remains weak despite staging a hesitant recovery from recession levels. This year\u2019s U.S. driving season -\u2013 when Americans leap in their SUVs for their annual vacations -\u2013 looks fairly feeble compared to pre-credit crunch years.\nStocks of crude oil and products on both sides of the Atlantic are still stubbornly high, a problem exacerbated by growing supply from producers outside the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries control, such as Russia.\nSome producers have more than enough crude to sell, but appetite for their oil has waned a little. Values for West African oil cargoes traded on the spot market for example have softened in recent weeks pulled lower by deteriorating refinery margins and higher freight costs which have deterred buyers.\nGlobal cracking margins \u2014 the profit a refinery can expect to make from refining crude \u2014 are now at five-year lows, temporary strength in margins the market saw in spring has evaporated.\nOne of Africa\u2019s key oil producing nations, Angola, has dramatically reduced its crude export plan for September. The total volume of September cargoes will be 1.52 million barrels a day, nearly 17% lower than August\u2019s 1.83 million barrels a day, a cut of just over 300,000 barrels a day.\nAnd while part of this can be attributed to outages at the large Girassol and Plutonio fields oil traders say this drop just doesn\u2019t add up.\nTraders believe Angola may be holding back some of its supplies for September in anticipation of slack demand from its biggest customers this fall. They suggest it may point to worries over demand from key buyers, namely China.\nAngola\u2019s primary customers, the U.S. and China, buy its crude because of its good quality and reliable production. Angola has been able to steadily ramp up its output while Nigeria has struggled to maintain its production from the restive Niger Delta. In the first half of 2009 Angolan crude was the third largest source of Chinese imports 29% of crude exports were sent to China and 31% to the U.S. according to the EIA.\nIt may be a little hasty to be so pessimistic about demand in the second half of 2010, as the most recent data and indicators for U.S. and Chinese oil demand are still showing solid, if hesitant, growth, says Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 G\u00e9n\u00e9rale Commodities Research, Michael Wittner, global head of oil market research.\nGiven the ongoing concerns and question marks about economic growth in the U.S. following lower Fed economic forecasts and sharply lower consumer confidence in July, plus European worries over austerity measures, and anxiety over China, it is natural to focus on product demand, however Wittner says; \u201cDespite all the jitters over China, oil demand there has remained extremely robust through June.\u201d\nLarge China oil spill threatens sea life, water\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_china_pipeline_explosion\nBEIJING \u2013 China's largest reported oil spill emptied beaches along the Yellow Sea as its size doubled Wednesday, while cleanup efforts included straw mats and frazzled workers with little more than rubber gloves.\nAn official warned the spill posed a \"severe threat\" to sea life and water quality as China's latest environmental crisis spread off the shores of Dalian, once named China's most livable city.\nClick image to see photos of China's oil spill\nOne cleanup worker has drowned, his body coated in crude.\n\"I've been to a few bays today and discovered they were almost entirely covered with dark oil,\" said Zhong Yu with environmental group Greenpeace China, who spent the day on a boat inspecting the spill.\n\"The oil is half-solid and half liquid and is as sticky as asphalt,\" she told The Associated Press by telephone.\nThe oil had spread over 165 square miles (430 square kilometers) of water five days since a pipeline at the busy northeastern port exploded, hurting oil shipments from part of China's strategic oil reserves to the rest of the country. Shipments remained reduced Wednesday.\nState media has said no more oil is leaking into the sea, but the total amount of oil spilled is not yet clear.\nGreenpeace China released photos Wednesday of inky beaches and of straw mats about 2 square meters (21 square feet) in size scattered on the sea, meant to absorb the oil.\nFishing in the waters around Dalian has been banned through the end of August, the state-run Xinhua News Agency reported.\n\"The oil spill will pose a severe threat to marine animals, and water quality, and the sea birds,\" Huang Yong, deputy bureau chief for the city's Maritime Safety Administration, told Dragon TV.\nAt least one person died during cleanup efforts. A 25-year-old firefighter, Zhang Liang, drowned Tuesday when a wave threw him from a vessel, Xinhua reported.\nOfficials, oil company workers and volunteers were turning out by the hundreds to clean blackened beaches.\n\"We don't have proper oil cleanup materials, so our workers are wearing rubber gloves and using chopsticks,\" an official with the Jinshitan Golden Beach Administration Committee told the Beijing Youth Daily newspaper, in apparent exasperation.\n\"This kind of inefficiency means the oil will keep coming to shore. ... This stretch of oil is really difficult to clean up in the short term.\"\nBut 40 oil-skimming boats and about 800 fishing boats were also deployed to clean up the spill, and Xinhua said more than 15 kilometers (9 miles) of oil barriers had been set up to keep the slick from spreading.\nChina Central Television earlier reported an estimate of 1,500 tons of oil has spilled. That would amount roughly to 400,000 gallons (1,500,000 liters) \u2014 as compared with 94 million to 184 million gallons in the BP oil spill off the U.S. coast.\nChina's State Oceanic Administration released the latest size of the contaminated area in a statement Tuesday.\nThe cause of the explosion that started the spill was still not clear. The pipeline is owned by China National Petroleum Corp., Asia's biggest oil and gas producer by volume.\nFriday's images of 100-foot-high (30-meter-high) flames at China's second largest port for crude oil imports drew the immediate attention of President Hu Jintao and other top leaders. Now the challenge is cleaning up the greasy plume.\n\"Our priority is to collect the spilled oil within five days to reduce the possibility of contaminating international waters,\" Dalian's vice mayor, Dai Yulin, told Xinhua on Tuesday.\nBut an official with the State Oceanic Administration has warned the spill will be difficult to clean up even in twice that amount of time.\nSome locals said the area's economy was already hurting.\n\"Let's wait and see how well they deal with the oil until Sept. 1, if the oil can't be cleaned up by then, the seafood products will all be ruined,\" an unnamed fisherman told Dragon TV. \"No one will buy them in the market because of the smell of the oil.\"\nAssociated Press researcher Yu Bing in Beijing contributed to this report.\nBird Cleaning - Fort Jackson Bird Center Pelicans\nBP Beach Cleanup Operations at Night\nKuwait gives initial nod for oil border post- Iraq\nhttp://af.reuters.com/article/energyOilNews/idAFLDE66I1NQ20100719\n* Special border post just for oil companies\n* Relations still acrimonious\nBAGHDAD, July 19 (Reuters) - Kuwait has given initial approval to open a special border crossing with neighboring Iraq for international oil firms working there, an Iraqi oil official said on Monday.\n\"There is kind of initial approval from Kuwait's side,\" Abdul-Mahdy al-Ameedi, director of the Oil Ministry's licensing office, told Reuters on the sidelines of a meeting between oil executives and the Oil Ministry in Baghdad.\n\"This information we got from the contracting companies who said they talked with the Kuwaiti government, and that there is an initial approval to use the road that is close to Safwan and passes through Rumaila oilfield.\"\nSeveral oilfields straddle the border between the two countries, including the Rumaila and Safwan fields.\nThe new border point would facilitate the inflow of equipment for oil companies that secured contracts to develop Iraq's oilfields, Ameedi said, adding that Iraq's Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also due to start official talks with Kuwait.\nIraq awarded a series of massive oilfield development contracts last year to majors such as Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L: Quote) and BP (BP.L: Quote) that could quadruple its output capacity to 12 million barrels per day within seven years.\nAs the projects get off the ground, inadequate dock space at Umm Qasr, the country's main port, bureaucratic impediments to securing visas, customs clearance, and corruption have become top complaints of oil executives.\nIn June, the head of state-run South Oil Co. said the proposal to open the special border post was being studied by Iraq's oil, finance and interior ministries but also needed the approval of the Kuwaiti government.\nRelations with Kuwait remain frosty two decades after Saddam Hussein's invasion of Iraq's small neighbor.\nExxonMobil Eyes 0.26M B/D From Iraq W Qurna-1 1Q 2011\nBAGHDAD (Dow Jones)--Exxon Mobil Corp.

Adams told Dow Jones Newswires in an interview.\nExxon Mobil and its partner Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA) will also announce later this year a number of tenders for drilling new wells and a 3D seismic survey, Adams said on the sidelines of an oil symposium held by the Iraqi oil ministry to tackle obstacles facing international companies in Iraq's oil expansion efforts.\nThe tenders will be open to all firms including service companies such as Weatherford International and Halliburton among others, an Iraqi oil industry source said.\nExxon Mobil and its partner had already received bids for a tender announced earlier this year to build a man camp in the field. \"We are very close to announce results of that tender,\" Adams said.\nExxon and Shell won the right to develop the 8.7-billion-barrel West Qurna Phase One in an auction held by Iraq last year for oil fields development contracts.\nThe consortium pledged to increase production to 2.325 million barrels a day. The consortium will receive $1.90 for each extra produced barrel of oil from the field.\nThe deal is one of a series to develop major and untapped oil fields that could catapult Iraq to third place among world oil producers and boost its capacity to Saudi Arabian levels of 12 million barrels a day, from around 2.5 million barrels a day currently.\n-By Hassan Hafidh; Dow Jones Newswires; +962 799 831 831; hassan.hafidh@dowjonnes.com\nU.S. Sanctions Cloud India-Iran Projects\nPetroleum Secretary S.

Sundareshan, said in an interview that Indian public-sector firms, including Oil and Natural Gas Corp., are exploring opportunities in Iran, a huge potential market as India hunts for energy resources abroad. India also recently renewed talks with Iran over a proposed $7.4 billion pipeline that would deliver natural gas to Pakistan and India.\n\"These are Indian public-sector companies who are negotiating these,\" Mr. Sundareshan said. \"We've asked them to obtain appropriate legal advice.\"\nThe U.S. sanctions, signed by President Barack Obama earlier this month, are designed to penalize companies that invest in Iran's oil industry and export refined petroleum products to it. The moves are intended to ratchet up pressure on Iran to curb its nuclear program, which Tehran says is for peaceful energy purposes but Washington believes is aimed at producing highly enriched uranium for nuclear weapons.\nA few days after the U.S. sanctions became law, Indian Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said India was concerned that \"certain unilateral sanctions recently imposed by individual countries\" might \"have a direct and adverse impact on Indian companies and more importantly, on our energy security.\"\nMr. Sundareshan said India doesn't currently export gasoline to Iran \u2013 private oil and gas giant Reliance Industries Ltd. ended its shipments in May 2009 \u2013 so the sanctions won't have a big impact on oil refiners. But the restrictions on investments to develop Iran's oil sector might interfere with planned projects, so big state-owned oil firms are weighing their options, he said.\n\"You would appreciate that there are immense opportunities in the oil and gas sector in Iran,\" Mr. Sundareshan said. \"There are unexplored frontiers in gas, which provide immense opportunities for the country. We would certainly like to utilize these opportunities without sanctions.\"\nUnder the U.S. sanctions, companies that invest more than $20 million in any project that \"significantly contributes to the enhancement of Iran's ability to develop petroleum resources\" would face penalties such as restrictions on credit from U.S. financial institutions. A U.S. embassy spokeswoman in New Delhi declined comment on the impact of the sanctions on India.\nIndia already imports $11 billion of crude oil annually from Iran -- about 14% of its total crude-import bill. The sanctions won't disrupt those purchases. But ONGC and other Indian companies are now exploring how to develop oil resources jointly with Iranian firms. Iran is the world's fifth-largest crude exporter.\nThe U.S. sanctions came after a new round of U.N. sanctions against Iran last month that banned countries from selling Iran various military equipment or accepting Iranian investment in their nuclear industries. The U.N. sanctions blacklisted a shipping firm, Irano Hind Shipping Co., that Indian media reports said was involved in shipping crude oil from Iran to India.\nMr. Sundareshan, however, said he isn't aware of any major Indian oil refiners who are importing crude via that shipping company.\nThe project to build a 2,600 kilometer pipeline, which has been in the works since the mid 1990s, has been stuck amid disagreements over how Iran's gas would be priced. The three countries haven't discussed it together since July 2007. India has agreed to re-engage Iran on it, though not Pakistan yet.\n\"It's necessary for a bilateral discussion with Iran before any progress can be made,\" Mr. Sundareshan said. He said it isn't yet clear whether the new sanctions will impinge on the pipeline project.\nThe petroleum secretary also said the Indian government will save about $5 billion this year through its recent withdrawal of fuel subsidies for state-owned firms, which came in tandem with a deregulation of fuel prices. The resulting increase in gasoline prices of 3.50 rupees per liter sparked a nationwide protest by opposition parties.\nMr. Sundareshan said the government has an \"emergency clause\" in the new fuel policy that will allow it to intervene and lower prices again if international crude prices spike.\n\"If the price of oil goes up to abnormally high levels as it did in 2008, it isn't that the government is going to be a silent spectator,\" he said. But he added, \"Having said this, the intention is that for the present there is absolutely deregulation of petrol prices.\"\nSince June 25, state-run oil companies have been given the right to set their own prices. For the time being, they'll set uniform prices once per month, but over time they'll likely begin pricing their products differently, Mr. Sundareshan said.\nHe said the government likely won't consider full deregulation of diesel for a \"few weeks or even a few months,\" because of the sensitive nature of the issue. \"It's an extremely difficult move for the government. Diesel is seen as a fuel of the common people,\" he said.\n\u2014Krishna Pokharel contributed to this article.\nWrite to Amol Sharma at amol.sharma@wsj.com\nGlobal firms invited to join Iran energy projects\nhttp://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5iHmUtrM4HudPPEsdDY99h3DtWswQ\nASSALOUYEH, Iran \u2014 Global energy majors are welcome to help develop oil and gas projects in Iran despite new sanctions imposed on the Islamic republic, a top official told reporters on Monday.\n\"We welcome all international companies, eastern or western. The oil industry cannot be deprived of cooperation,\" said Mohammad Hossein Mousavizadeh, adviser to Pars Oil and Gas Co, which is developing the giant South Pars fields in Gulf waters.\nSeveral top global energy majors have either quit Iran or are considering an exit since world powers in June slapped new UN sanctions on Tehran over its controversial nuclear programme.\nMousavizadeh said the development of South Pars, which holds about eight percent of world gas reserves, was not affected as Iranian companies were replacing global firms or foreign firms were staying on as associates.\n\"The development of South Pars is a closed chapter. The contracts have been closed with big consortiums,\" he told reporters after they were given a tour of phases 14, 15, 16, and 18.\n\"These (Iranian) consortiums have foreign associates ... In the past, foreign companies came as leaders of consortiums such as (France's) Total which was in charge of construction, technology and finance,\" he said.\n\"But that model is over now,\" Mousavizadeh said, indicating that Iranian companies were now leading the projects and sanctions were not affecting the development of South Pars.\n\"The sanctions are mainly for their companies not ours. We are not worried about sanctions in terms of technology. If we face any problem, we have to plan for it.\"\nMousavizadeh also gave an explanation of why Khatam al-Anbiya, the industrial wing of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards, had pulled out of two development phases -- 15 and 16 -- of South Pars.\n\"They (Khatam al-Anbiya) preferred to pull out because of their construction activities elsewhere,\" he said.\n\"Any consortium that cannot observe the timetable of the project for any reason should step aside and be replaced. And they have been replaced by domestic companies.\"\nOn Friday, Khatam al-Anbiya said it was pulling out of the two phases as it had been slapped with sanctions and continuing to work in the fields would have \"endangered the nation's resources.\"\nKhatam al-Anbiya won the contract in late June 2006 to develop the two phases in a deal worth 2.09 billion dollars.\nThe industrial conglomerate is one of 15 Iranian companies linked to the Guards which have been targeted in the latest round of UN sanctions.\nThe firm was created during the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war to help rebuild the country. It has since diversified into mechanical engineering, energy, mining and defence, especially under the presidency of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.\nIran, OPEC's second largest oil exporter, also has the world's second-largest reserves of natural gas after Russia.\nThe South Pars field, which Iran shares with the small state of Qatar, is comprised of 28 phases and holds around 14 trillion cubic metres (500 trillion cubic feet) of gas.\nBut its development has been delayed amid a lack of investment in a country faced with severe gas needs of its own and because of difficulties in procuring the required technology.\nThe town of Assalouyeh in the southern Iranian province of Bushehr has been chosen as the base for developing the offshore field.\nIran aims to boost oil production\nhttp://www.upi.com/Science_News/Resource-Wars/2010/07/19/Iran-aims-to-boost-oil-production/UPI-63171279548832/\nIran, under a 5-year development plan, aims to increase oil production by 1 million barrels per day, an Iranian lawmaker said.\nHassan Vanaei, a lawmaker supervising Iran's latest 5-year development plan, said the Oil Ministry under the plan should increase oil production by 1 million barrels per day to 5.1 million bpd, the Iranian Oil Ministry's Petroenergy Information Network reports.\nThe lawmaker said his country typically experiences an annual decline in production of around 300,000 bpd and the 1 million bpd increase didn't account for the annual loss.\nIran sits on some of the largest oil and gas deposits in the world, though declining infrastructure prevents the country from exploiting its full resources.\nThe report from the Oil Ministry added that Iran exported more than $2 billion in petrochemical products during the first quarter.\nWashington in early July passed sanctions on Iran that blacklists foreign entities doing business in the Iranian energy sector.

They also arise at a time when Kurdish help may be needed to form the next government as politicians in Baghdad have been deadlocked since the March 7 election.\nIraqi officials quickly vowed to do something about the practice. The smuggling is an embarrassment for Baghdad and the Kurds \u2014 both U.S. allies \u2014 not only because of the sanctions but also because of Iraqis' perception that politicians are profiting on the trade while the public suffers from fuel shortages.\nIraqi Oil Minister Hussain al-Shahristani said Tuesday the cabinet had decided to summon representatives of the Kurdish regional government to discuss the smuggling issue and \"to put an end to it, as it harms Iraq's national and economic interests.\"\n\"This matter is unacceptable and strange,\" al-Shahristani told reporters after the cabinet meeting. It is \"illogical to export refined products to neighboring countries while Iraq imports refined products such as gasoline.\"\nDays earlier, government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said an urgent meeting would be held with Kurdish officials.\nThe Kurds, however, appeared resistant. One Kurdish government official told The Associated Press he doubted any meeting would take place, noting \"the government's mandate is over.\" He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the issue.\nKurdish officials acknowledged that some refined fuel from their region was being exported legally, but denied that any crude was being smuggled into Iran.\nKurdish Natural Resources Minister Ashti Hawrami insisted the source of the smuggling problem was not the Kurds. According to the Kurdish news agency, Hawrami said oil from two major refineries in central Iraq is being shipped to Iran and \"the Iraqi government's raising of this issue now has a political objective of covering up the unofficial sale of crude oil from southern Iraq.\"\nIn a statement this week, the Kurdish regional government blamed Baghdad's policy of selling heavily discounted fuel to private distributors for the Iraqi public, which it said creates \"incentives\" for the buyers to smuggle it abroad. It acknowledged some of that smuggling may go through Kurdistan and said it is \"committed to working with the federal government to eliminate permanently all such profiteering of fuel oil.\"\nAn Associated Press reporter who visited the area several weeks ago saw hundreds of fuel tankers lined up at an official crossing on a narrow mountain road at Haj Omran, a Kurdish resort town on the border with Iran. One driver, Nouri Ahmed, said he was to transport his shipment down to the Iranian port of Bandar Imam, where it is unloaded and moved to a tanker in the Gulf.\n\"I don't know where it goes\" from there, Ahmed said.\nThe oil smuggling is far from new. For several years after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion, it was one of the preferred ways for insurgents to fund their operations. As security improved, private individuals and political groups picked up on the lucrative practice. Analysts say that smuggling of oil has been going on in the Kurdish north since the early 1990s.\nBut the issue is in the limelight now after President Barack Obama this month signed the new sanctions, which punish entities involved in exporting refined fuel products to Iran. Iran is a major exporter of crude oil, but it sorely lacks refineries, making it heavily reliant on imports of gasoline and other refined fuels. The U.S. move aims to put extra pressure on Iran over its nuclear program after four rounds of U.N. financial sanctions.\n\"If Iran had not been placed under international sanctions, the smuggling would have continued without a single comment,\" Bassem al-Sheik, the editor-in-chief of Ad-Dustour newspaper wrote Monday. He said the Kurdistan government's silence on smuggling for so long was likely because the Kurdish political groups were benefiting from the proceeds.\nU.S. officials in Iraq said smuggling had long been an issue, even before the new sanctions were approved. But as major oil companies grow increasingly reluctant to sell refined products to Iran, new players had been stepping up.\n\"We're concerned about this, and we're reviewing these developments,\" said Nolan Barkhouse, a U.S. embassy spokesman in Baghdad.\nOil has long been a source of tensions between the central government in Baghdad and the government in the autonomous Kurdish region in the north. The two sides have been at odds over just how much control the Kurds \u2014 who sit on more than a third of Iraq's 115 billion barrels in proven crude reserves \u2014 should have over the oil in their territory.\nSeveral years ago, Baghdad deemed illegal the unilateral oil deals signed by the Kurds with foreign companies following Saddam Hussein's ouster.\nWhile the Baghdad government struck a deal in June 2009 with the Kurds to allow exports to resume through the pipeline that runs from Kirkuk to Ceyhan, Turkey, the agreement was short-lived, with exports halted three months later over a dispute over payments to foreign companies operating there.\nExports through the line have yet to resume with any consistency, raising the question of what becomes of production from the Taq Taq and Tawke fields that feed it. Taq Taq is operated by China's state-owned Sinopec Group and Turkey's Genel Enerji, and Tawke by the independent Norwegian oil company DNO.\nTawke's production in May \u2014 the latest available \u2014 stood at about 4,800 barrels per day, far shy of the field's 50,000 barrel per day capacity. Of that production, 80 barrels per day go to power the company's operations at Tawke, according to company figures. The rest is split between DNO's local refinery and the small refineries in the region, said DNO spokesman Tom Bratlie.\nWhile DNO doesn't keep track of what happens to the oil once it's sold, \"all deliveries are subject to approval by the local government,\" Bratlie said. He said oil refined by DNO is distributed by the local government.\nThe smuggling seems less a matter of helping Iran than of turning a profit.\n\"It's physically impossible for the oil being smuggled to be more than a drop in the bucket for Iranian needs,\" Samuel Ciszuk, Mideast energy analyst with IHS Global Insight said.\nEl-Tablawy is based in Baghdad and Barzanji in Sulaimaniyah; AP writer Sinan Salaheddin contributed to this report from Baghdad and Ian MacDougall from Oslo, Norway.\nShell Awards Marine Services Contracts To Two Nigerian Firms\nIBADAN, Nigeria (Dow Jones)-Shell Petroleum Development Company-operated Joint Venture has awarded marine contracts to two Nigerian firms, a company spokesman said Monday.\nTony Okonedo, SPDC's corporate relations manager said in a statement that C&I Leasing PLC (CILEASING.LA) and Maiden Systems Ltd., will provide marine tanker handling and pilotage services to crude export vessels at Bonny and Forcados terminals in the Niger Delta.\nHe didn't give the cost of the contracts but said a key aspect of them was the building of 11 marine tug boats which will secure tankers as they load crude oil at the two terminals.\nOkonedo added that both companies will also maintain associated crude loading facilities and undertake offshore terminal emergency response and surveillance.\nSPDC is a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell PLC.\nOkonedo said Shell-run companies in Nigeria, last year awarded contracts worth nearly $892 million to Nigerian firms, representing 85% of the total amount spent on contracts within the period.\nHe said the contracts were awarded recently in Port Harcourt, capital of southeast Rivers state, and added that they were part of Shell's efforts to encourage the participation of indigenous firms in the country's oil and gas industry.\n\"The focus of Shell companies is on supporting Nigerians and Nigerian firms to improve their capacity in a range of oil and gas industry activities including, design, engineering, exploration and drilling,\" Okonedo said.\nNigeria recently announced its Local Content Act, which gives first consideration to Nigerian indigenous companies in the oil and gas sector, creating training and employment opportunities for Nigerians and ensuring that most of the spending in the industry is kept in the country.\n-By Obafemi Oredein, contributing to Dow Jones Neeswires; 234 2 7510489\nNew Technologies Developed to Aid Oil Cleanup Efforts\nKuwait's KPC to invest $8-9 bln in Indonesia refinery\nhttp://af.reuters.com/article/energyOilNews/idAFJAK49472220100715\n* Kuwait plans 300,000 bpd refinery on Java island\n* Refinery to get crude from Kuwait at discount\n* Indonesia mulls tax breaks for new refineries (Updates with details, possible tax incentives)\nJAKARTA, July 15 (Reuters) - Kuwait Petroleum Corp will invest $8-9 billion in a new 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) oil refinery on Indonesia's Java island, Indonesian Industry Minister MS Hidayat said on Thursday.\nThe move would help cut fuel shipments into Asia's biggest gasoline and diesel importer, where delapidated refineries do not meet demand in Southeast Asia's biggest economy and where no new refinery has been built since 1995.\nHowever no timeframe was given for the Kuwaiti project, and previous plans to build new refineries have failed.\nHidayat said Kuwait Petroleum Corp and Indonesia's state energy firm Pertamina will sign an MOU at the end of this month for a refinery in Balongan in western Java.\n\"A joint venture will be formed within six months,\" he said. \"The crude oil will be supplied from KPC at a discount price.\"\nIndonesia's state oil firm Pertamina has said previously it planned to build a new refineries in west and east Java in joint ventures with foreign investors, and to\nboost capacity at its refineries in Balikpapan, Dumai and Balongan.\nPertamina has asked the government for tax incentives for new refinery projects to attract investors.\nIndonesia's investment chief Gita Wirjawan said the government will consider giving a tax holiday to refinery investors.\n\"I have talked with the finance minister and he responded positively about giving tax incentives for new refinery projects,\" Wirjawan told reporters on Thursday.\nIndonesia has not build new refineries because of the high cost of projects and low margins in a country where fuel is subsidised.

Production may peak in the range of 2.5-3.0 million bbl/day by 2015. Current production is about 2 million bbl/day. Angola has been a member of OPEC since 2007 and is subject to quota restrictions. Quota could easily rise if the demand for crude oil exceeded supply. Eight large production developments currently in progress on blocks 14, 15,17, 18, 31 and 32 could together add 1.2 million bbl/day by 2012.\nJohn Wagoner, Technology Editor at Offshore Magazine reported on these production projects recently. To be sure, the international oil majors are not going to wait for a resolution of the Gulf of Mexico moratorium uncertainties to continue adding new production to existing supplies. However, for the U.S. as a nation, it is a step back from the desire to become energy independent. Hopes were high that continued and steady development of the deep oil reservoirs of the Lower Tertiary in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) would at least arrest the current decline. No one seriously thinks that the GOM has the potential to increase overall production rates. The life of an average oil field in the GOM is in the 12-15 year range and many are depleted in fewer than 10 years. In Angola, oil companies are steadily exploring all of the blocks where good prospects exist. So far, the discovery record has been excellent. Oil quality is good and both capital and operating costs offshore Angola are less than in the GOM. Whether or not sufficient production can be obtained there to keep the pressure off of crude oil prices during the next few years is an unanswerable question. Still, knowing that good prospects exist will provide opportunities for the majors. With demand rising in Asia, that is where much of the Angolan crude will go.\nTotal: Angola: a Sixth Major Oil Discovery on Deep Offshore Block 15/06\nTotal (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT) announces that its subsidiary, TEPA (Block 15/06), Limited, and its partners have made a new oil discovery in Block 15/06 with the well Caba\u00e7a SE-1, in the Angolan deep-offshore.\nThe well, located in 470 metres of water depth and 100 kilometres from the Angolan shore line, encountered significant gross thickness oil bearing reservoirs in the Miocene series. Volumes estimates suggest that Caba\u00e7a SE could hold substantial volumes of oil in place, with a potential yet to be confirmed.\nAn appraisal well is planned to be drilled in the third quarter 2010 with the objective of delineating and testing this oil accumulation.\nCaba\u00e7a SE-1 is the seventh exploration well drilled in Block 15/06 since the block award at the end of 2006. The eighth well of the exploration drilling campaign (Mpungi-1) is currently being drilled, and it will complete the work commitment of the first exploration period one and a half year in advance of the contractual period. The exploration effort of the Block 15/06 partnership has reached a remarkable rate of success with six commercial discoveries out of the seven prospects drilled to date. TEPA (Block 15/06), Limited, holds a 15% interest in the Block 15/06, operated by Eni.\nTotal Exploration & Production in Angola\nTotal is present in Angola since 1953. In Angola, Total operated 491,000 barrels oil equivalent per day (boe/d) in 2009, and its SEC* equity production amounted approximately 191,000 boe/d. This production comes essentially from Blocks 17, 0 and 14.\nDeep offshore Block 17, operated by Total with a 40% interest, is Total\u2019s principal asset in Angola. It is composed of four major zones: Girassol-Rosa and Dalia, which are currently producing; Pazflor, a project under development for a production start in 2011; and CLOV (based on the Cravo, Lirio, Orquidea and Violeta discoveries), a project for which the final investment decision should be taken soon.\nTotal is also the operator with a 30% stake in the ultra deep offshore Block 32, on which 12 discoveries were made, confirming the oil potential of the block. Pre-development studies for a first production zone in the central south eastern portion of the block are underway.\nIn addition, the Angola LNG project for the construction of a liquefaction plant near Soyo is designed to bring the country\u2019s natural gas reserves to market. This project, on which Total holds a 13.6% stake, will be supplied, in a first step, by the associated gas from the fields on Blocks 0, 14, 15, 17 and 18. The plant is under construction with production expected to begin in 2012.\nIn Angola, as in all countries where Total operates, the Group is committed to developing the local oil industry while recruiting and providing professional training to local workers. Through its ambitious \u201cAngolanisation\u201d and technology transfer plans, Total has strengthened the local economy and made of Hygiene, Safety and Environment awareness a top priority. Total E&P Angola has developed a transparent and solid corporate social responsibility policy around three main axes: health, education (opening of four high schools in the provinces in 2009) and economic community development.\nGE Oil & Gas Awarded $160 Million Petrobras Contracts for P-58 and P-62 Floating Production Units in Brazil\nhttp://www.marketwatch.com/story/ge-oil-gas-awarded-160-million-petrobras-contracts-for-p-58-and-p-62-floating-production-units-in-brazil-2010-07-14?reflink=MW_news_stmp\nDouble Award Consolidates GE's Partnership Role with Petrobras and Presence in Brazil\nGE will supply gas turbine and compressor equipment to PNBV--Petrobras Netherlands BV, subsidiary of Petrobras the integrated oil and gas company, for deployment in two floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO P-58 and P-62) units for exploration and production offshore Brazil.\nThe $160 million double FPSO unit contract awarded to GE is a significant assignment of orders for both power generation and compression packages to a single provider of equipment and services.\nJoe Mastrangelo, vice president--turbomachinery for GE Oil & Gas said: \"We're delighted to strengthen our already solid partnership with Petrobras with this double award for power generation and compression packages.

Total says the deal covers an area of roughly 430 miles (nearly 700 kilometers) in the Gulf of Guinea where an oil well was discovered in 2006.\nTotal says its African fields produce about 750,000 barrels a day \u2014 roughly a third of its oil production.\nIndian Oil to Invest in Africa in $1 Billion Push\nIndian Oil Corp., the country's second-biggest refiner, plans to acquire oilfields in Africa as part of a $1 billion overseas investment plan, its chairman said.\n\"Africa is top of our list to buy assets because it is near India and has good quality crude,\" Brij Mohan Bansal said in an interview at his office in New Delhi today. \"We are planning retail outlets in Indonesia.\"\nState-run Indian Oil's renewed plans to expand overseas came after the government freed gasoline prices from its control last month and said it will eventually allow refiners to set diesel rates, helping to increase cash flow. The refiner has set aside $1 billion for acquisitions overseas, Bansal reiterated.\n\"Africa offers many grades of crude and gives refiners security of supplies to have fields there,\" said Vinay Nair, a Mumbai-based analyst with Khandwala Securities Ltd. \"They will however still need financial support from the government to help make profits.\"\nThe refiner delayed crude-processing and pipeline projects overseas, including Nigeria and Turkey, because of reduced cash flow after selling fuels below cost, Bansal said in July last year. Indian Oil and Turkish builder Calik Holding had planned to spend $4.9 billion to build a 300,000 barrel-a-day refinery in Ceyhan on the Mediterranean coast.\nThe companies, with Eni SpA, Europe's fourth-largest oil company, had also planned to spend $2 billion on a pipeline from Samsun on Turkey's Black Sea coast to Ceyhan to transport as much as 1.5 million metric tons of Central Asian crude oil a day.\nThe shares have increased 23 percent in Mumbai trading this year compared with the 3 percent gain in the benchmark Sensitive Index of the Bombay Stock Exchange. The stock declined 3.8 percent to 374.45 rupees today.\nIndian Oil, which owns stakes in ventures in Africa and the Middle East, had plans to invest in refinery and pipeline projects in Nigeria, former company spokesman M. Kali Krishna said in October 2006. The Economic Times reported then that the company may invest $3.5 billion to build a 300,000 barrel-a-day crude processing plant in the African nation.\nThe refiner holds shares in exploration ventures in Iran, Yemen, Gabon, Nigeria and Venezuela. The projects are yet to produce oil.\nIndia's crude imports increased 20 percent to 153.2 million tons in the year ended March from a year earlier, according to the oil ministry's data. The nation's energy use may more than double by 2030 to the equivalent of 833 million tons of oil from 2007, the International Energy Agency said.\n\"Deregulating fuel prices helps us increase cash flows and profitability,\" Bansal, 59, said. The refiner currently has debt of 470 billion rupees, he added.\nIndian Oil plans to revive a 200 billion-rupee ($4.3 billion) chemical project in the eastern state of Orissa and build nuclear, wind and solar power plants as cash flow increases, Bansal said.\n\"We will bring the petrochemical project out of the cupboard again since there is more clarity about our finances now,\" he said. \"We want to become an integrated energy player and will spend on renewables.\"\nThe refiner plans to build a 1,400-megawatt nuclear power plant in the northwestern state of Rajasthan at a cost of 120 billion rupees in partnership with Nuclear Power Corp. of India. Indian Oil would own 26 percent in the venture and the plant may start producing electricity in 2015, said Bansal, who plans to seek the approval of his company's board in two months.\nChina's Sinopec reports oil discovery in Nigeria\nhttp://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9GTDRTG0.htm\nState-owned Chinese oil producer Sinopec said Monday its Addax subsidiary has struck oil offshore Nigeria after the unit was acquired last year to expand the company's African presence.\nThe UDELE-3 well of Block 137 in the Niger Delta showed a heavy oil flow of 3,365 barrels and 28,300 cubic meters of gas per day in a test, said a statement by the company, also known as China Petroleum & Chemical Corp.\n\"It showed the a huge oil exploration potential of the block in the future, and also greatly increased its value,\" the company said.\nThe well was Sinopec's first exploration in Nigeria this year.\nSinopec acquired Addax, a Geneva-based oil and gas explorer, last year for $7.2 billion to add reserves and production capacity in West Africa and the Middle East. It was the biggest foreign acquisition by a Chinese company to date.\nSinopec shares closed up 0.7 percent to 8.15 yuan on Monday in Shanghai.\nNigeria Asks Oil Companies to Improve Data Reporting\nhttp://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-07-13/nigeria-asks-oil-companies-to-improve-data-reporting.html\nNigeria, Africa\u2019s biggest crude producer, asked oil companies operating in the West African country to provide more accurate production data.\nCompanies will be required to submit data from wellheads, flow stations and export terminals, Assisi Asobie, chairman of Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, or NEITI, said in an interview today in Lagos, Nigeria\u2019s commercial hub. Producers currently report only the volume exported, he said.\n\u201cWe want to have figures from these three points because there are leakages partly as a result of physical tampering of the system or the age of the pipelines,\u201d Asobie said. \u201cWe want to know how much is lost.\u201d\nReceipts from crude exports account for about 90 percent of Nigeria\u2019s foreign-exchange earnings. Attacks by armed groups in the Niger River delta, home to the country\u2019s oil and gas industry, cut output by more than 28 percent between 2006 and 2009, according to Bloomberg data. Nigeria is the fifth-biggest source of U.S. oil imports.\nTo improve the accuracy of reporting, Nigeria will install more meters on oil pipelines, Asobie said.\n\u201cWhen we do that, the production figures we get will be more accurate,\u201d he said.\nNEITI has also asked agencies involved in monitoring oil companies reports to modernize their recording systems and harmonize their figures, \u201cespecially how they record what they receive from the oil companies,\u201d Asobie said.\nThe agencies include the Federal Inland Revenue Service, the Department of Petroleum Resources, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corp. and the Central Bank of Nigeria.\n\u201cIf you go to ask them separately, their figures don\u2019t always tally, and together, their figures do not agree with figures from the oil companies,\u201d Asobie said.\n--Editors: Paul Richardson, Karl Maier.\nTo contact the reporter on this story: Vincent Nwanma in Lagos at vnwanma@bloomberg.net.\nTo contact the editor responsible for this story: Antony Sguazzin in Johannesburg at asguazzin@bloomberg.net.\nMinister says 'no insolvency' in Nigerian state oi...\nNigeria oil reserves down 4.8% due to lull in expl...\nShell Posts Higher Profit on Oil Prices, Productio...\nStatic Kill Overview -- Update from BP's Kent Well...\nNigeria's Oil Co: Now Produces 2.2 Million Barrels...\nKuwait gives initial nod for oil border post- Iraq...\nExxonMobil Eyes 0.26M B/D From Iraq W Qurna-1 1Q 2...\nShell Awards Marine Services Contracts To Two Nige...\nNew Technologies Developed to Aid Oil Cleanup Effo...\nKuwait's KPC to invest $8-9 bln in Indonesia refin...\nTotal Said to Declare Force Majeure for Angolan Gi...\nAngola offshore oil may make up for production los...\nTotal: Angola: a Sixth Major Oil Discovery on Deep...\nGE Oil & Gas Awarded $160 Million Petrobras Contra...\nJordan to Import More Gas From Egypt, Explore Qata...\nNigeria Asks Oil Companies to Improve Data Reporti...\nOPEC Forecasts Steady Oil Demand Growth in 2011, L...\nGulf Live Feed: BP fits new cap on oil spill\nRaw Video: BP Places Cap Over Leaking Oil Well\nTechnical Overview with Kent Wells: Installing the...\nBuilding and Testing the New Cap System\nShell: New oil, gas project online in Nigeria\nNigeria militants say amnesty deal overlooked them...\nChina inks MOU with Nigeria to build US$8 bln oil ...\nIran calls for gas, oil cooperation with Nigeria\nWAfrica Crude-Nigerian supported as India buys\nCosts for US Crude Oil Imports Rise So Far in 2010...\nChina-Nigeria crude oil deal\nOn the Beach: Gulf Shores, Ala.\nAU 60 Minutes BP Oil Spill Video, 13 June 2010, Re...\nBP Oil Spill Breaks Record for Biggest in Gulf.

        "raw_content": "And here is your new (late) page! My apologies for it being a day late; I didn\u2019t want to post it until I had written up a response for the very interesting dialog that you guys were having in the comments of last week\u2019s post. I\u2019ve been kind of mulling over what to say, how much to say, but let me give you some background info before I ask for you guys\u2019 opinion. (There are some mild world-building spoilers ahead, fyi. But yeah.)\nIn the story, \u201cdiamond year\u201d is the year that the prospective heir to the throne starts to wear the diamond crown, which basically is the current monarch endorsing this particular prince/princess. Why is this so important? The way succession works in Senripoza (the kingdom) is not based on firstborns but rather on the strength of a power called Will (you can make your assumptions on what that is :P) By granting the diamond crown to the heir, the monarch is saying \u201cI recognize this person as the prince(ess) with the strongest Will, and when this person\u2019s Will outmatches my own (because Will fades over time) I will step down peacefully.\u201d It\u2019s a very big thing, and while everyone kinda knows who will be the diamond prince(ess) well ahead of time (it\u2019s relatively easy to tell who has the strongest Will, especially if you\u2019re the help that works in the castle), having the diamond crown granted seals one\u2019s place as heir apparent.\nSo, what year (age) is the diamond year? Well this is kind of where I have a couple planks over the possible plot hole. I was thinking anywhere from 20 to 40. But what makes it THE diamond year? Eeeeh\u2026 Yeah. These kinds of things happen when you decide to refer to something that\u2019ll be important later, but aren\u2019t immediately necessary so you haven\u2019t done all the worldbuilding for it yet -_- I value you guys\u2019 inputs; it was comments like last week\u2019s that help me realize where I missing the mark. Do you have any opinions on this? I won\u2019t be able to tell you what I\u2019m going to do in the end (though I may change the dialog a bit in the end), but I\u2019m interested to hear your opinions if you have any\nSo this was the year that the youngest Prince would have been eligible for the crown if his will was the strongest? Or was it obvious that his will was strongest",

An eco-system that influences it by means of natural and artificial events, space and time dimension. The research has the aim to analyze the critical issues related to Context by providing a contribution to the study of interactions between Context Knowledge and Architectural Design and how it can be used to improve the performance of the buildings and reducing design mistakes. The research focusing on formal ontologies, has developed a model that enables a semantic approach to design application programs, to manage information, to answer design questions and to have a clear relation between the formal representation of the context domain and its meanings. This context model provides an advancement on the state of the art in simplified design assumptions, in term of ontology ambiguity and complexity reduction, by using algorithms to extract and optimize branches of the graph. The extraction does not limit the number of relations, that can be extended and improve context taxonomy coherency and accuracy.\nCategories: 2015, FIORAVANTI A., GARGARO S., Published Papers",

        "raw_content": "Turning Points in Public Broadcasting: The CBC at 50\nThe immediate occasion for this series was the CBC's 50th anniversary in 1986. Public broadcasting in Canada had actually begun four years before the date we were celebrating, with the creation of the Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission (CRBC) by the Conservative government of R.B. Bennett in 1932. But this first attempt was criticized by the the Liberal opposition \u2014 for political bias\u2014 and by the Radio League, the popular organization that had lobbied for its creation \u2014 for poor programming. When Mackenzie King's Liberals replaced the Conservatives in 1936, they reorganized the public broadcaster as a crown corporation with a supposedly \"arms length\" relationship to the government of the day. They called their new creation the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation \u2014 the \"corpse,\" as it was sometimes later jokingly known \u2014 and it made its first broadcast, from a transmitter in Watrous, Saskatchewan, on Nov. 2, 1936. The 50th anniversary gave me a welcome chance to review some of its history and to interview many of the pioneers who had built, first, the radio service, and then, after 1952, the country's first television network. The series began with an exploration of the origins of public broadcasting in Canada. Luckily, while living in Ottawa in 1978, I had recorded an interview with Graham Spry, one of the leaders of the campaign to establish a public broadcaster in the late 1920's and early 1930's. Graham died in 1983, and, having this interview was invaluable to me in constructing this first episode. The second show dealt with the so-called golden age of radio, when the CBC became Canada's first truly national cultural institution. The third was about the beginnings of television , the epochal Radio Canada strike of 1959, and the battle over Preview Commentary, a radio commentary which was cancelled, in 1959, as a result of political pressure from by the Diefenbaker government, and then reinstated under strong counter-pressure from its producers and the public. The fourth was entirely devoted to the story of This Hour Has Seven Days, the wildly popular current affairs programme that the CBC cancelled in 1966. The final episode concerned the regulation of public broadcasting in Canada, initially the task of the CBC itself, but, after the Conservative government of John Diefenbaker reformed the CBC and allowed private television broadcasting in 1958, the job of the Board of Broadcast Governors (BBG), and then, from 1968 to the present, Canadian Television and Radio Commission (CRTC). This last programme was twice partially reconstructed to create a more up-to-day conclusion when the series was re-broadcast in 1996, for the 60th anniversary, and again in 2006, for the 70th, but here I have included the original 1986 ending.\nSome of the material was drawn from the archives, where Ken Puley, as always, was an invaluable help, but happily, in 1986, a lot of the people who built the CBC were still alive and willing to reminisce with me. Here is a list of those I was able to interview:\n#1 - Harry Boyle, Graham Spry, Frank Peers, Michael Nolan, Orville Shugg, and James Finlay\n#2 - Neil Morrison, Lister Sinclair, Harry Boyle, Davidson Dunton, Orville Shugg, Marjorie McEnaney, Helen Carscallen, Alan Thomas, Frank Peers, Bernard Trotter, and Robert Fulford\n#3 - Fernand Quirion, Jean Louis Roux, Alphonse Ouimet, Robert Fulford, Lister Sinclair, Barbara Fairbairn, Frank Peers, and Gordon Cullingham\n#4 - Hugh Gauntlett, Patrick Watson, Alphonse Ouimet, Laurier Lapierre, Douglas Leiterman, Reeves Haggan, Warner Troyer, Helen Carscallen, Eric Koch, Roy Faibish, and Peter Campbell\n#5 Harry Boyle, Graham Spry, Frank Peers, Davidson Dunton, Alphonse Ouimet, Robert Fulford, Eugene Forsey, Herschel Hardin, Laurent Picard, Hugh Gauntlett, and Al Johnson\nTagged: Harry Boyle, Graham Spry, Frank Peers, Michael Nolan, Orville Shugg, James Finlay\nNewer PostPlastic Words\nOlder PostTurning Points in Public Broadcasting Part Two",

The new standards have been approved by the academy's 54 -member board of governors in a meeting. Academy CEO Dawn Hudson, in a statement obtained by Variety, said, \"Over the course of weeks, the task force consulted with professors of ethics, business, philosophy, and law from Georgetown, Harvard, Notre Dame, and Stanford, as well as experts in human resources and sexual harassment.\n\"Much remains to be done. The task force will finalise procedures for handling allegations of misconduct, assuring that we can address them fairly and expeditiously,\" said Hudson in the letter. After investigations by The New York Times and The New Yorker that revealed sexual harassment and rape allegations against Weinstein, the Academy's 54-member board of governors had ousted him with immediate effect at an emergency session. Hudson's letter, which was sent to Academy's roughly 8,500 members, also had a link to the standards. \"There is no place in the Academy for people who abuse their status, power or influence in a manner that violates recognised standards of decency,\" it said. \"The Academy is categorically opposed to any form of abuse, harassment or discrimination on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, disability, age, religion, or nationality,\" it added.\n10th Jaipur International Film Festival\n\"Coco\" set to hold on to top spot at weekend box office\n'Village Rockstars' is India's official entry to Oscars 2019\nFilm producer Harvey Weinstein indicted for rape\nHarvey Weinstein expected to surrender, to be charged with rape\nShashi Kapoor, Sridevi remembered at Oscars\nActor Uma Thurman accuses Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault",

        "raw_content": "Their Selling My Aunt and Uncle's Old Castle House...\nThread: Their Selling My Aunt and Uncle's Old Castle House...\nI have very fond memories of this place. The porch used to go all the way along the front and around the side of the house, and I used to ride my cousins peddle tractor back and forth around that porch, so much fun for a little budding gearhead. Obviously the majority of the porch got torn off at some point. Much of the house still looks the same on the inside. There used to be a player piano behind the front door in the foyer, and everyone would gather around that at family get togethers and sing. They'd let us kids take turns pumping the player piano peddles. What a trip down memory lane. I'm tempted to call the real estate agent and see if they'd be willing to just give me 15 minutes and show me the house so I could take some pictures. My cousin had a short door in his bedroom that went into a back part of the attic for storage, and I when I stayed over there a time or two he'd bounce his head on his pillow until he fell asleep. I asked him why he did and he said because he didn't want to see the ghost that would come out of that door at night. I never saw any ghost... but there might have been... never know...\nhttps://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sal...14_rect/12_zm/\nBilgerat thanked this post",

The region, whilst high at around 730m above sea level, is extremely flat and has little of interest to offer apart from its wines.\nSimilar in climate to Ribera del Duero, the region experiences hot summers and cold winters, with temperatures up to 40\u00b0C in the summer, falling to \u201310\u00b0C in the winter. There are often frosts late into the spring, but the region enjoys around 2,600 hours of sunshine a year.\nAnnual rainfall of around 400mm is irregular and falls mainly in the autumn. As a result, vineyards are permitted to irrigate their vines to ensure quality, but not to increase the yield.\nThe soil is sandy and stony, made up of sandstone and clay, although near the river Duero a mix of limestone and clay can be found.\nRueda is one of Spain\u2019s best white wine growing areas. The most popular grape in the region is Verdejo, which produces a classic Spanish white wine of unique character, although Sauvignon Blanc is also planted and Viura is also proving popular. Interestingly, the Verdejo grape is not grown extensively elsewhere in Spain, other than the DO of Rueda.\nDO permitted varieties of grapes: Verdejo, Sauvignon Blanc, Palomino and Viura\nExperimental varieties: Chardonnay (white), Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon (red).\nTo qualify as a DO wine:\nRueda white wine must contain a minimum 50% Verdejo; the remainder may be made up from Viura and/or Palomino grapes.\nRueda (Verdejo) Superior must contain a minimum 85% Verdejo and must also carry a vintage date.\nRueda Sauvignon may be 100% of the named variety.\nRueda Espumoso (sparkling, similar to Cava) must contain at least 85% Verdejo and must also carry a vintage date.\nConsejo Regulador for DO Rueda\nEmail: rueda@adenet.es\nWebsite: www.dorueda.com\nLocate Rueda on Map of Spain\nBodegas from Rueda on our wine list:\nCooperativa Agr\u00edcola Castellana",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019ve reached a crisis point in my reading of the Dresden Files. See, there\u2019s always (by which I mean starting in the third book or so) been a long-term story being told, and I know this. Plus, there\u2019s always been continuity, and I know this too. But until White Night, I\u2019ve been able to pick up each new book and just read it, and remember enough about the previous continuity and the long-term story to do just fine. Now, though\u2026\nDon\u2019t get me wrong, I remembered enough to keep up with Harry Dresden\u2019s rampage through the spirit world in response to the recent murders of magic-sensitive women, that took him through several trips down memory lane and culminated in, as usual, mostly everybody but Harry winning big[1], but there was at least one world-shaking revelation that lacked the punch I think it should have had. And I know it\u2019s only going to get worse. So now what?\nIf there were a lot of books left, obviously I\u2019d just read them. But the truth of the matter is, I\u2019m only a few behind now, and there are (I believe) quite a few to come, as yet unwritten. So if I were to rush it now, I\u2019d just have the same problem in October. So I guess I\u2019ll just stick with what I\u2019m doing? (I do kind of wish I could do online research without fear of massive spoilers, though.)\nOh, anyway, I did want to say that I continue to be intrigued by Harry\u2019s emotional ups and downs. Struggle with sexism? Sort of. Really, he embraces it, but I have the impression that the more he talks about it, the more he is trying to figure out a better way. Anger issues? Big time. Too much paranoia (or justified fear) to work well with others? Oh, my, yes. But he\u2019s still unquestionably a good guy, and that\u2019s what I like best about him. The nuances. He\u2019s an interesting, interesting person.\n[1] At least he continues to win small.\nThis entry was posted in Words and tagged Dresden Files, noir, urban fantasy on September 9, 2011 by Chris.\nThe only problem I have with the Dresden Files series, at least for right now, is the pretense that there is a broader world beyond the bounds of Chicago in which things are happening over which our wizarding hero Harry (no, not that one; the cool one, Harry Dresden) has no influence and can only react to when odds and ends of it affect his city and the lives of his nearest and dearest. I mean, that\u2019s factually true, which I suppose makes some kind of case for it not being a pretense at all and me just filling a paragraph with lies for the sake of volume. But the thing is, we all know that sooner or later these world-shaking events will drop onto Harry\u2019s doorstep and he\u2019ll be forced to deal with them[1], and while that will make for an exciting plotline, it\u2019s still somewhat disappointing that the depth of world will be proven a bit of a pretense after all and it really was all about Harry Dresden, start to finish.\nOn the bright side, Proven Guilty is yet another entry in a long and seemingly unstoppable series of books designed solely to justify making it all about Harry by presenting a cool, funny hero who is always clawing his way out of the hole with equal parts style, honor, and romantic frustration.[2] In this case, much to my delight, he\u2019s doing all of that at a horror convention that is being stalked by exactly the kinds of horror icons the fans are there to see, more or less. Stir in a new practitioner of the dark arts on the loose and Harry\u2019s new duties to take care of that kind of problem, plus all the usual suspects (good and bad), and you have, well, a book of the Dresden Files, which alone is enough to pretty much guarantee a good time.\n[1] In fact, this has already happened at least once.\n[2] The many, many series of urban fantasy with female protagonists seem to have as a common thread how irresistible said protagonists are and how much sex they either could or do have, depending on whether they\u2019re co-filed into the paranormal romance section of the bookstore. The Dresden Files, in addition to being just about the only one with a male protagonist in the first place, also seems to be about the only one without any supernatural powers of sexiness for the protagonist. This leads me to no particular conclusion, but what with my psychology hobbyism, I can\u2019t help forming questions.\nThe Dresden Files: Welcome to the Jungle\nIf you had never heard of Harry Dresden before and didn\u2019t want to sink much time or effort into deciding how you felt about the idea of reading his series, Welcome to the Jungle would be an excellent jumping-off point. For one thing, it is a prequel to the first book, so it\u2019s not like spoilers are really possible. For another, the short format-limits of a reasonably sized graphic novel make it a pretty small time investment, and the high ratio of art to dialogue (even counting Harry\u2019s omnipresent first-person monologue) makes that investment even smaller. In point of fact, I read the majority of the story around listening to a friend\u2019s disco cover band playing at an area strip club. There were distractions galore, is all I\u2019m saying, and yet it went by with surprising quickness.\nFor the as-yet uninitiated, Harry Dresden is Chicago\u2019s only freelance wizard. In practice, this means that he sometimes helps people with minor tasks that could usually be done non-magically just as well, but mostly he assists the Chicago PD when weird things happen that nobody can explain. Like a zoo groundskeeper being violently killed, purportedly by a gorilla who obviously couldn\u2019t have done it except that people like that answer better than some kind of magic bugaboo as culprit. Mix in a hellhound, a damsel in distress, and a power-hungry mastermind and you\u2019ve got the makings of a quick and dirty mystery that does a fine job of introducing our Harry to my hypothetical too-busy-to-read populace. Enjoy!\nThis entry was posted in Words and tagged Dresden Files, graphic novel, noir, urban fantasy on May 4, 2010 by Chris.\nIn retrospect, this has been happening for a little while; I just didn\u2019t notice until it smacked me in the face. The Dresden Files series has been changing, is what I mean. The prose has improved on a pretty steady incline, sure, but I\u2019m more talking about plot and character. The series is darker, more dramatic, perhaps a bit more romantic, but above all ever broader in scope. In the first book, Harry Dresden\u2019s case files were affecting, at most, small elements of Chicagoan life, whereas by the advent of Dead Beat, he is involved not only with the current and future status of the White Council[1] and the hierarchy of all three kinds of vampires[2], but with the actual fate of the world. (And I think this book wasn\u2019t the first time.)\nThis time out, the names of the game are blackmail and necromancy. In short\u2026 you know, the problem here is that I hardly want to talk about anything that happened in the book, because each moment held so much weight. But in short, a quest to retrieve misleading photographic evidence otherwise destined to destroy his friend Murphy\u2019s career leads Harry into a race with three powerful necromancers to find their bible, The Word of Kemmler.The journey takes him from magical bookshops to burned out high-rise tenements, from the limousine of Chicago\u2019s most powerful mobster to the shadow of its most famous skeleton, from the secret corners of his own mind to the heights of the White Council, with stops along the way for the toughest magical duels yet, for what may turn out to be the biggest mistake of Harry\u2019s life, and, just possibly, for redemption.\n[1] Which is to say, the world\u2019s non-evil magical community.\n[2] It\u2019s not entirely worth going into for the purposes of this particular summary; the important part is he doesn\u2019t spend the entire book fucking them.\nThis entry was posted in Words and tagged Dresden Files, noir, urban fantasy on January 24, 2010 by Chris.\nAt some point between the last Dresden Files book and this one, I got accidentally spoiled for a piece of character development between Harry Dresden and Thomas Raith, a vampire of the White Court he\u2019s been palling around with lately. (That is, of course, a drastic simplification and barely accurate at that, but so be it.) As such, it\u2019s going to make it tricky for me to dig into the rich thematic ground here that I would and often have plumbed with great abandon for similar situations in other works. And while I could probably still kill this paragraph and start over in a theme-based review without letting you get spoiled by the character elements, these things are mostly more about me than the actual stuff I consumed, as you will have no doubt noticed by now.\nAfter reading five previous novels, what I find that has been the most glaringly absent from the series, the single thing I could point at and say, \u201cWhere\u2019s that?\u201d, is porn. Thankfully, Blood Rites has solved this problem to my satisfaction. It\u2019s like, you can only read so many books in a series and remain interested before someone puts some porn in there, am I right? And at long last, there Harry is, surrounded by women in lingerie, watching the cameramen and the boom operators as the director tries to get the shot just right. Because, porn![1] So, um, anyway, Harry is hired to clean up a little bit of entropy that has gotten all over the porn studio.[2] And as the formula dictates, he finds all too rapidly that he\u2019s in something way over his head. Because, there\u2019s the porn and the thing with Thomas, sure, but there\u2019s also more fallout from the war between the wizards and the less pleasant vampires of the Red and Black courts, and at last a little bit of overt sexual tension between Harry and his long time CPD contact, Karrin Murphy.[3]\nPlus, bonus awesome evil-detecting puppy!\n[1] Oh, hey. You didn\u2019t think I meant, y\u2019know, a gradual devolution of the ongoing plotlines until all that\u2019s left is a series of orgies \u201cheld together\u201d by a pregnancy scare? Jesus, that would be a terrible book.\n[2] Ew.\n[3] I grew up on Moonlighting. Sue me.\nThis entry was posted in Words and tagged a blog by any other name, awesome evil-detecting puppy, boom operators, can you plumb thematic ground?, Dresden Files, fantasy, Jim Butcher, magic, mystery, noir, porn studio entropy, vampires on May 13, 2009 by Chris.",

        "raw_content": "Has quantum artificial life been created?\nBy Tim Sandle Dec 5, 2018 in Science\nA model of quantum artificial life on a quantum computer has been developed. This could mean, in the future, machine learning, artificial intelligence and artificial life will be combined on a quantum scale.\nScientists from the University of the Basque Country have developed a quantum biomimetic protocol. This model reproduces the process of Darwinian evolution, adapted to the language of quantum algorithms and quantum computing. Biomimetics is the imitation of the models, systems, and elements of nature for the purpose of solving complex human problems.\nThe model is where simple artificial organisms could be capable of experiencing the phases of life, as would be understood from a biological perspective, within a controlled virtual environment. Here with a quantum computer it would be possible to run an artificial life protocol. This protocol would encodes quantum behaviors similar to those of living systems, including self-replication, mutation, interaction between individuals, birth and death.\nTo test out the model, the researchers ran an experiment on an IBM ibmqx4 cloud quantum computer, as an early proof-of-concept prototype. While it has been possible to create artificial life inside computers, standard software takes a classical, Newtonian approach in producing these models. This means step by step, with logical progressions. However, the real world is more complex and varied. As Science Alert puts it, adding \"a dab of quantumness to the mix \u2013 strange phenomena happening at the micro and macro level.\"\nThe new research set out to add a level of unpredictability to computer simulations. For this, the researchers recreated a natural selection environment within which individuals, replication, mutation, interacted with other individuals and the environment, and a state equivalent to death.\nThe researchers write: \"We thought it would be interesting to create systems capable of emulating certain properties exclusive of living entities. In other words, we were seeking to design quantum information protocols whose dynamics were analogous to these properties.\"\nThe study paves the way for future research about the relationship between quantum mechanics and the origins of life. The model has been discussed in a research paper, published in Nature Scientific Reports. The paper is titled \"Quantum Artificial Life in an IBM Quantum Computer.\"\nMore about quantum computing, Artificial, Life, quantum artificial life\nquantum computing Artificial Life quantum artificial l...",

        "raw_content": "Those with disabilities now ABLE to save, celebrate the passage of bill\nby Salena Zito from Triblive.com:\nWASHINGTON \u2014 Sara Wolff's life story aptly took her to the White House on Tuesday.\nThere, she joined two others from her hometown of Scranton \u2014 Vice President Joe Biden and U.S. Sen. Bob Casey \u2014 to celebrate passage of a bill that enables families of disabled children to save money for their needs.\n\u201cI never could imagine such a great experience than being here with the champions that pushed this bill across the finish line,\u201d Wolff, 32, who has Down syndrome, said as she stepped up to the podium. \u201cWow, and I get to be here with the vice president of the United States!\u201d\nCasey invited Wolff, a former intern in his Scranton office, to attend the event marking the years of work that went into the Achieving a Better Life Experience Act, or ABLE law, that President Obama signed in December.\nThe bill, co-sponsored by Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C., allows people with disabilities to save up to $100,000 in 529-type accounts without jeopardizing government benefits. Recipients can withdraw the money tax-free to pay for medical costs, employment training, housing, education and other qualified expenses.\n\u201cThis bill goes to the heart of what the president and Republican and Democrat colleagues want for all Americans: to be given an even chance,\u201d Biden said.\nWolff works at Keystone Resources in the Office of Advocacy and is a law clerk at O'Malley & Langan Law Offices, a Scranton firm specializing in worker's compensation. She is a board member of the National Down Syndrome Society.\nCasey saw her life story as one that illustrated the need for the law. Though hard-working and ambitious, Wolff would lose benefits if she earned more than $700 a month or saved more than $2,000, he noted when the bill was signed.\n\u201cIt's this year that I'll finally be able to save some of my paycheck,\u201d Wolff said.\nAn estimated 56.7 million people \u2014 one in five Americans \u2014 had a disability in 2010, according to the latest Census Bureau report on the disabled. ABLE accounts are limited to people designated as disabled before age 26; about 5.8 million people could be eligible for the benefits. The accounts are meant to supplement, not replace, Medicaid, Social Security, private insurance and employment benefits.\nCasey called the day \u201cjoyful,\u201d to the delight of the more than 100 attendees of families with people with disabilities.\nBiden welcomed \u201cPrincess Kayla\u201d Kosmalski, an 8-year-old Delaware native with Down syndrome who charmed everyone with her sparkly headband, red and black dress with tulle. \u201cThis is why bill was passed and signed,\u201d he said.\nBiden called the legislation a \u201cmoral imperative\u201d that makes economic sense.\nWolff \u2014 who attended Obama's State of the Union address last month as Casey's guest \u2014 became involved with the ABLE Act in 2009 and traveled around the country advocating for the bill, visiting Washington many times. This year she authored a change.org petition that gained more than 268,000 signatures urging Congress to pass the legislation.\nShe testified in July before the Senate Finance Subcommittee on Taxation and IRS Oversight, on which Casey is ranking Democrat.\nSalena Zito is a Trib Total Media staff writer.

Or on second thought for that matter. But believe it or not \u2013 such things really exist and look rather classy, to be honest.\n\u2026 whereas the Audi R8 GT3 sure is a more modern approach to racing.\nThis classic Hino coach has been converted to a mobile wholesale shop at some point in it\u2019s life.\nMany of the historic buildings near the Durban harbor are being restored now, which is great. I just love the old school architecture and prefer them over any modern concrete, glass and steel structures.\nAnd to wrap it up, how about a throwback to the good old and more colorful days?

And also, housekeeping.\nThose of you who do your blog reading the old-fashioned way \u2013 i.e., by actually visiting said blogs (how November 2008!) \u2013 have probably been admiring easyVegan\u2019s new look for a few days now. (If you\u2019re reading this on MySpace or through Bloglines, Google Reader or the like, you\u2019re missing out!) Throughout June and into July, I was hard at work on a series of new banner graphics for the site. I finished them a few weeks ago, but Shane only got around to adding them to the site on Monday. (In his defense, they required some programming magic to properly work their mojo.)\nSo far, there are 77 images, set to display randomly and rotate every 90 minutes. The majority are work safe, but if you happen to draw a swear word or naughty image, there\u2019s a handy-dandy \u201cReload Banner\u201d button located in the sidebar, right above the search box. Don\u2019t say I never did anything for ya.\nYou can find out more about each image, as well as the motivation behind the project, on the Banner Credits page. Not to rehash what I wrote over there, but I was tired of the blog\u2019s old look and name; the old banner image was so plain! I wasn\u2019t keen on the idea of up and moving the site, though, so I figured a face lift was in order. Spiff things up, you know? I didn\u2019t change a whole lot \u2013 just the banner, really, and I also simplified the background image so the site wouldn\u2019t look overly cluttered and busy \u2013 but I love the result. The new banners, which are primarily comprised of photos and artwork I already enjoyed, are so shiny and pretty! I\u2019ve already cycled through a few clicks of the \u201cReload\u201d button, just to see what would pop up. Ahem.\nKarma, in particular, has an interesting back story. The animal depicted on the banner is a Thylacine \u2013 a Tasmanian Tiger. Or rather, it\u2019s a picture of a sculpture of a Thylacine. The sculpture is (was?) part of a traveling exhibit called Cryptozoology: Out of Time Place Scale, which Shane and I saw at the Kansas City Art Institute\u2019s Artspace in December 2006. Cryptozoology is the study of cryptids; a cryptid being an animal thought \u2013 but not proven \u2013 to exist. You know, like mermaids, Bigfoot, Yeti, etc.\nCryptozoology is more Shane\u2019s kind of thing. (Not that he believes in unicorns; rather, he enjoys myths and legends, and is fascinated by people who do champion the existence of Sasquatch.) But I love animals and museums, so when he suggested that we check out the exhibit, I was totally down with it.\nMost of the exhibits were really quite amusing \u2013 very X-Files-ish.\nFor the conspiracy theorists, the door to the Department of Cryptozoology at the Federal Wildlife Commission:\nSome sort of ridiculously adorable unicorn-doggy hybrid:\nZOMG, WANT! She\u2019s probably not vegan, though.\nFiled under animals as game, animals as pests, cryptozoology, extinct species, housekeeping, hunting, kansas city, kansas city art institute, nonhuman animals, tasmanian tigers | 1 Comment \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "Partner Norman Fowler\nLockers Park School, Lockers Park Ln, Hemel Hempstead HP1 1TL, Regno Unito\nSulhamstead House, Reading, Sulhamstead RG7 4DX, Regno Unito\nVictor William (Peter) Watson (14 September 1908 \u2013 3 May 1956) was a wealthy English art collector and benefactor. He funded the literary magazine, Horizon, edited by Cyril Connolly.\nWatson was the son of William George Watson, later Sir George Watson, and was the youngest of three children\u2014his brother Norman was born in 1897 and sister Florence in 1894. He was educated at Lockers Park School,[1] Eton College and St John's College, Oxford.[2]\nWatson was an avid art collector acquiring works by such artists as Mir\u00f3, Klee, and Pablo Picasso, which were displayed in his Paris apartment in the 1930s. He was the principal benefactor of the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London and also provided financial assistance to English and Irish painters including Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud and John Craxton.[3] In 1930, society photographer, artist and set designer Sir Cecil Beaton began a lifelong obsession with Watson, though the two never became lovers. One chapter from Hugo Vickers' authorized biography of Cecil Beaton is titled \"I Love You, Mr. Watson\".\nIn 1940 Watson provided funding for Cyril Connolly's Horizon and became its arts editor. Stephen Spender was also involved with the magazine initially. Watson was art editor for the magazine between 1940 and 1949. He rarely contributed articles, but gave many opportunities for his friends to have their pictures reproduced in the magazine, and also encouraged Horizon to look beyond British Art, particularly to Paris. Watson commissioned articles on artists barely known at the time in England, such as Balthus, Morandi and Klee. He persuaded Picasso's dealer, Daniel Kahnweiler, to comment on the contemporary art market; and he also got Michel Leiris to write about Giacometti.[4] Spender recalled to Connolly's biographer, Clive Fisher, that Watson hated \"priggishness, pomposity and almost everything to do with public life,\" and he suspected that he had educated himself \"through a love of beautiful works and of people in whom he saw beauty ...\". He added \"When I think of him then, I think of his clothes, which were beautiful, his general neatness and cleanness, which seemed almost those of a handsome young Bostonian.\"[5]\nFisher writes that Peter Watson \"was a figure of striking attractiveness; women in particular seem to have found his manners irresistible... almost everyone appears to have liked him.\" One of Watson's lovers was the American male prostitute and socialite Denham Fouts, whom he continued to support even after they separated as a result of Fouts's drug addiction. He had also a longterm relationship with Oliver Messel.\nOliver Messel and Peter Watson\nWatson was found drowned in his bath on 3 May 1956.[6] Some have suggested that he was murdered by his young American lover, Norman Fowler (1927 - March 23, 1971)[7][8] (from whom Bacon stole \u00a3300 to go gambling). Fowler inherited the bulk of Watson's estate and died 14 years later in the West Indies; he was also found drowned in his bathtub.[7]\nWatson's sister, Florence Nagle, fought a prolonged battle against Britain's Jockey Club, the controlling body for horse racing. His brother Norman provided funding for the early development of Lake Louise, a ski resort in Alberta, Canada.\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/queerplaces/images/Peter_Watson_(arts_benefactor)",

We rided past\u2026\nThis is a travel blog which we wrote out the reasons why you should visit Panauti Nepal. We felt in love with this ancient town immediately. The best ancient town to see Newari culture and charming old building. Peaceful with beutiful people and a lot of good sights and a photogenic historical town.\nHow much will it cost to live in Kathmandu for a month? I write this article based on how much I spent for a month in Kathmandu. This is a question i believe a lot of people are interested to find out. If not just ignore reading it. I stayed in Kathmandu for on and off\u2026\nPokhara Valley is surrounded by beautiful green hills and idyllic villages with the Annapurna Himalayan ranges as its eternal backdrop.

I choose the best room of Bandipur Village Resort, a rooftop room which I occupy the whole rooftop terrace at my own. I paid USD 30 during off season (July 2016). The hotel does not provide room with air-conditioned, thus, I am looking for an alternative, with this price,\u2026\nI walked for 10km, or more, every day, for hours, for 2 full days, in rains, in muds as this is a monsoon season in Nepal.

        "title": "Object Relations",
        "raw_content": "The Object Relations\nObject Relations is a theory that comes from psychoanalysis that states (in a very small nutshell) that our first relationships as babies form the expectations of our adult relationships.\nThere are three main object relations\nIn practice, we have all three object relations in us in varying degrees. However, we tend to have a dominant object relation -- the one associated with our type.\nAttachment Object Relation (Types 3,6,9)\nPeople with the attachment object relation tend to have a sense of contentment that their needs (with people, situation, thinks) are being met. Their sense of self is based on being deeply attached to things perceived as good. To attach themselves, these types adapt their ways to be consistent with important people or things.\nAttachment in Threes\nThrees adapt their self-image to be consistent with the expectations and values of others. Threes are aware of what is valued by their friends, family, coworkers, etc. and they strive to attain those values. That way, they can receive the attention and validation from others. Their sense of self is based on an attachment to their self-image of a successful, valuable person.\nAttachment in Sixes\nSixes adapt their belief systems to be consistent with those of an authority figure or system. Sixes doubt their own ability to cope with the world, so they seek security through another person or system. Their sense of self is based on an attachment or association and loyalty to important people or groups.\nAttachment in Nines\nNines adapt (or accommodate) their own wants and opinions to be consistent with those of others. Nines want peace, so why rock the boat? By going along with others, they can attain the harmony they seek. Nines base their sense of self on their attachment to their idealized (internalized harmonious) view of the world.\nFrustration Object Relation (Types 1,4,7)\nPeople with the frustration object relation know what will make them happy, but they feel they seldom have it. However, once they find the source of their happiness, they tend to become disappointed and disillusioned with it. As a result, they become frustrated as they begin their search again. Their sense of self is based on the search for an ideal. These types need to remember that they can find contentment by accepting their present experience.\nFrustration in Ones\nOnes are searching for ideal autonomy. That means perfection and complete self-control. Ones focus on what's wrong or out of place in a given situation. They become frustrated when they see that things don't live up to their standards and when they feel obligated to improve everything. Their sense of self is based on this frustration - it shows that they still care about making things better.\nFrustration in Fours\nFours are searching for ideal attention -- a partner who completely understands and appreciates them. Fours focus on what's missing in others and in themselves. Despite their longing for an ideal partner, their actual partner has flaws and isn't quite what the Four is looking for. Fours seek validation and attention from others, but feel they must be different and distant from others to get it. As a result, their strategy for attention doesn't often work, leading to a sense of frustration that maintains their sense of self.\nFrustration in Sevens\nSevens are searching for ideal security and contentment. Sevens focus on the fun they are not having. The current experience isn't quite as fun as they hoped it would be. Their mind quickly jumps to opportunities and experiences that they could be having rather than the one they are currently experiencing. Sevens get frustrated with the present and seek security in the future. Their sense of self is based on the search rather than on the experience.\nRejection Object Relation (Types 2,5,8)\nPeople with the rejection object relation feel that they have been rejected by others. Others don't care about their needs, so they reject their own needs too. Consequently, their relationships often have issues of not wanting to be nurtured or touched. Despite feeling rejected, they feel they only have one gift to offer to prevent future rejection. Their sense of self is based on countering this rejection by offering their talent.\nRejection in Twos\nTwos reject their own needs, their own negative thoughts and emotions. The Two offers the only gift she has left: her heart. She focuses on the needs of others and helping, caring, and nurturing them. Twos try to love others so much that others won't reject them. Twos base their sense of self on putting their own needs aside (rejection) and caring for others.\nRejection in Fives\nFives reject and minimize their own needs (especially their physical and emotional ones). The Five has only one gift left: her head. Fives offer their intelligence and expertise to others, hoping that others will appreciate their knowledge. By building up their own expertise, Fives seek to become important enough not to be rejected further. Fives, having cut off their emotional needs, try to not need others, to be independent, and to not need love. Fives believe that their lack of emotion will shield them from the pain of further rejection.\nRejection in Eights\nEights reject their own needs (especially their emotional, vulnerable side). The Eight only has one gift left to prevent further rejection: her strength and will. Eights believe in their power and know that others can turn to them from strength and leadership. Eights expect to be rejected, but because they are so \"tough,\" they give the appearance of being able to handle it.",

        "raw_content": "between plotting and putting\nMitchell Rutledge, photography by Dustin McKibben\nThere\u2019s a fine line between strategizing and overthinking on the golf course, and a lot of overthinking can be done during those walks over the expanse of grass between one completed green and a fresh tee.\nSo with the score tied and the city championship hanging in the balance this past August, Mitchell Rutledge made the stroll between the 17th and 18th at Brookwood Golf Club with one simple thought running on repeat through his head:\nDon\u2019t hit it left.\n\u201cI\u2019ve played that course so many times, all I was thinking is there\u2019s only one place where I can\u2019t hit it,\u201d the 23-year-old said. \u201cI aimed right and swung as hard as I could.\u201d\nThe ball landed in front of the green, and shortly thereafter Rutledge sank a 61-foot putt to birdie the hole and complete a comeback that saw him begin the day two back of Nick Bienz before overtaking him and winning by one stroke.\nToeing the line between overthinking and coolness helped Rutledge close out his amateur career with a championship he had been chasing for several years, and it will likely help him with the rigors of a professional career he\u2019s begun lining up.\n\u201cIt felt awesome,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s always hard to win tournaments. It\u2019s even harder to win a tournament close to home. I\u2019ve been close a couple of times, but it\u2019s a different story to win.\u201d\nRutledge played golf for four years at Michigan State, where by year three he had already cracked the Top 15 in career scoring list and completed the sixth-lowest 18-hole score and 20th-lowest 54-hole score in the program\u2019s history.\nAnd throughout his collegiate career, his father, the man who got him into golf to begin with, was traveling around watching him play. It didn\u2019t matter if the tournament was in Texas or South Carolina or Florida, Bob Rutledge drove to wherever his son was teeing up so that he could watch.\n\u201cHe was really invested in my game,\u201d the younger Rutledge said. \u201cHe absolutely did everything for me.\u201d\nRutledge did not take to golf at first and admits he was slow getting into it compared to others at a high level. He started playing when he was 9 or 10, he said, and it was whenever he saw his dad out playing. Rutledge would follow along and \u201cmess around,\u201d as he described things.\nBut at 12 he started to get competitive.\nSoon, the accolades followed: he lettered every year in high school in St. Louis, led his team to three state championships and won the individual state championship as a junior and senior before heading off to Michigan State, where he studied economics.\nAll of that allowed him to hone his thinking on the golf course, especially in high-pressure situations\u2009\u2013\u2009one of which popped up in the city championship this past August.\nChasing Bienz and Joe Hayden most of the final day of the tournament, Rutledge avoided mistakes even in key moments, like the 17th hole when he salvaged a par after his pitch from under a tree came up short of the hole.\nBienz, however, bogeyed the hole which led to the pair going into the final 18th tied; Hayden had three bogeys of his own earlier in the day. More than just coolness, Rutledge knows when to take advantage of openings\u2009\u2013\u2009especially one given to him by Bienz.\n\u201cThere were definitely nerves, but I knew what my game plan was going to be,\u201d he said. \u201cWe were tied and probably shouldn\u2019t have been tied, but Nick made a mistake and let me back into contention. I just tried to stick to my game plan.\u201d\nHe triple-checked his scorecard and really felt the nerves when he realized he needed to give a speech, as is the custom at the city tournament. Then he turned his focus to the next big thing: qualifying school and a professional career.\n\u201cI\u2019ve thought about it a lot, and my dad and I have talked about it a lot,\u201d he said. \u201cProfessional golf is kind of a gamble. You have to get hot at the right time, and you never know what\u2019s going to happen with your body or your game.\u201d\nIf Rutledge has taught himself anything, it\u2019s that there\u2019s the fine line between strategizing and overthinking\u2009\u2013\u2009and he can walk it to near perfection.",

This city is considered the holiest city of India with some 23,000 temples. Many Hindus believe that dying in Varanasi brings salvation via the release of one\u2019s soul from the laborious cycle of reincarnation. The bodies of those who die in Varanasi are typically cremated on the banks of the Ganges River, which flows through the city. Hindus believe that bathing in the Ganges cleanses them of transgressions.\nIf the family members of those cremated depart before the body is consumed the fire will likely be doused and the remains cast into the river to conserve fuel. In addition, there are numerous Hindus who are not authorized to be cremated so their bodies are tied to rocks and cast into the river. Furthermore, the city dumps 50 million gallons of sewage into the river every day. This is in addition to the loads of human & industrial waste poured into the river from the many other cities on its banks. Every year millions of Hindus drink a few drops of water of the heavily poluted river and take some back to their relatives who couldn\u2019t make the journey. Is it any wonder that gall bladder cancer rates of those who live along the river are the 2nd highest in the world?\nDavid had some time to kill on October 8th so he hired a boat and a guide to watch the morning activities, including the bathing rituals, the cremations and the many tourists. The low point came when they came across the shrouded head & shoulders of a corpse in the river. David expressed: \u201cThe thought of bathing in a river that was filled with sunken corpses was not very attractive to me, but thousands of people were doing just that \u2014 as a mode of worship \u2014 as we drifted past them on our way downstream.\u201d He reflected: \u201cIn light of this, I can\u2019t help but wonder how humanists can decry Christian evangelism that \u2018threatens to destroy native cultures.\u2019 God forbid that some missionary might persuade people to stop drinking sewage.\u201d",

        "title": "Sample Essay: Genetically Modified Foods - Good Or Bad?",
        "raw_content": "Genetically Modified Foods - Good Or Bad?\nWhat are Genetically Modified Crops?\nGenetic engineering is the modification of an organism\u2019s hereditary material so as to produce tailored traits in it. Since food items can also obtained from organisms, scientists have managed to employ genetic engineering, particularly in crops to incorporate desired qualities in them.\nFor example, a particular species of tomato plants may be producing large tomatoes but might be susceptible to parasites. So, in order to achieve the desired quality (defense against parasites), genes from another plant may be extracted and transferred.\nThere are numerous advantages of growing genetically modified crops as opposed to the ones being regularly produced. The most common pro is that genetically engineered crops produce double the yield. As their genetic material has been altered, their productivity is greatly enhanced. In addition to that, continual research in this field has led to the production of insect and pest resistant seed variety. This automatically decreases the use of pesticides which, in turn, contributes to increased safety of farmers as well as consumers. Similarly, some disease resistant seed varieties have also been developed. Again, this factor contributes to greater output as the crops are not affected by diseases.\nFurthermore, genetically modified food is cheaper than the traditional varieties. This means that problems like starvation and malnutrition can easily be combated through genetically engineered crops.\nCons Of Genetically Modified Food\nEven though genetic engineers and practicing botanists keep stating the long lists of benefits provided by genetically modified crops, however, it is important to assess the cons as well. Many biologists believe that altering the genetic material of organisms is not an advisable endeavor. According to them, tinkering with the genetic material of crops can seriously affect the world food supplies.\nIn accordance with the view of biologists who are against genetic modification, the long term effects produced by this process are still somewhat unknown. Although no medical harms have been found yet, harmful impacts may be produced in the future.\nPeople still have some reservations for genetically modified food. This is based on the lack of any proper information currently available.

We, the delegates of the World Conference on Special Needs Education representing 92 governments and 25 international organizations, assembled here in Salamanca, Spain from 7-10 June 1994, hereby reaffirm our commitment to Education for All, recognizing the necessity and urgency of providing education for children, youth and adults with special educational needs within the regular education system, and further hereby endorse the Framework for Action on Special Needs Education, that governments and organizations may be guided by the spirit of its provisions and recommendations .\n2. We believe and proclaim that:\n\u2013 every child has a fundamental right to education, and must be given the opportunity to achieve and maintain an acceptable level of learning,\n\u2013 every child has unique characteristics, interests, abilities and learning needs,\n\u2013 education systems should be designed and educational programmes implemented to take into account the wide diversity of these characteristics and needs,\n\u2013 those with special educational needs must have access to regular schools which should accommodate them within a child-centered pedagogy capable of meeting these needs,\n\u2013 regular schools with this inclusive orientation are the most effective means of combatting discriminatory attitudes, creating welcoming communities, building an inclusive society, and achieving education for all; moreover, they provide an effective education to the majority of children and improve the efficiency and ultimately the cost-effectiveness of the entire education system.\n3. We call upon all governments and urge them to:\n\u2013 give the highest policy and budgetary priority to improve their education systems to enable them to include all children regardless of individual differences or difficulties,\n\u2013 adopt as a matter of law or policy the principle of inclusive education, enrolling all children in regular schools, unless there are compelling reasons for doing otherwise,\n\u2013 develop demonstration projects and encourage exchanges with countries having experience with inclusive schools,\n\u2013 establish decentralized and participatory mechanisms for planning, monitoring and evaluating educational provision for children and adults with special educational needs,\n\u2013 encourage and facilitate the participation of parents, communities, and organizations of persons with disabilities in the planning and decision making processes concerning provision for special educational needs,\n\u2013 invest greater effort in early identification and intervention strategies, as well as in vocational educational aspects of inclusive education,\n\u2013 ensure that, in the context of a systemic change, teacher education programmes, both pre-service and in-service, address the provision of special needs education in inclusive schools.\n4. We also call upon the international community; in particular we call upon:\n\u2013 governments with international cooperation programmes and international funding agencies, especially the sponsors of the World Conference on Education for All, UNESCO, UNICEF, UNDP, and the World Bank:\n\u2013 to endorse the approach of inclusive schooling and to support the development of special needs education as an integral part of all education programmes;\n\u2013 the United Nations and its specialized agencies, in particular ILO, WHO, UNESCO, and UNICEF:\n\u2013 to strengthen their inputs for technical co-operation, as well as to reinforce their co-operation and networking for more efficient support to the expanded and integrated provision of special needs education;\n\u2013 non-governmental organizations involved in country programming and service delivery:\n\u2013 to strengthen their collaboration with the official national bodies and to intensify their growing involvement in planning, implementation and evaluation of inclusive provision for special educational needs;\n\u2013 UNESCO, as the United Nations agency for education:\n\u2013 to ensure that special needs education forms part of every discussion dealing with education for all in various forums,\n\u2013 to mobilize the support of organizations of the teaching profession in matters related to enhancing teacher education as regards provision for special educational needs,\n\u2013 to stimulate the academic community to strengthen research, networking and to establish regional centers of information and documentation; also, to serve as a clearing house for such activities, and for disseminating the specific results and progress achieved at country level in pursuance of this Statement,\n\u2013 to mobilize funds through the creation within its next Medium Term Plan (1996-2002) of an expanded programme for inclusive schools and community support programmes, which would enable the launching of pilot projects that showcase new approaches for dissemination, and to develop indicators concerning the need for and provision of special needs education.\n5. Finally, we express our warm appreciation to the Government of Spain and to UNESCO for the organization of the Conference, and we urge them to make every effort to bring this Statement and the accompanying Framework for Action to the attention of the world community, especially at such important forums as the World Summit for Social Development (Copenhagen, 1995) and the World Conference on Women (Beijing, 1995).\nAdopted by acclamation, Salamanca, Spain 1994",

Vertical gardens are all the rage these days (in case you didn't know) and Patrick Blanc, designer of the show's vertical gardens, is the green-haired enfant terrible of the vertical garden movement.\nI think vertical gardens are cool, although they're often poorly maintained and can look pretty bad pretty quickly. (I'd still like to try one of my very own.) They don't have to worry about that at the orchid show, since plants are rotated in and out of the displays the moment they are no longer perfect.\nI was at the garden today to lecture on Enticing Epiphytes. Epiphytes (plants that grow on other plants) are my favorite orchids, and seeing them displayed in vertical gardens was terrific. They were paired with other epiphytes (staghorn ferns, rhipsalis, hoyas), creating great swaths of color and texture. Vertically displayed epiphytes are glorious, growing upright, just as they would in nature but with more consistent grooming.\nFor those of you who haven't been to the NYBG Orchid Show, it's not too late!

        "raw_content": "UNEXPLAINED \"GAP\" IN TREATMENT KILLS CAR ACCIDENT VICTIM'S CASE\nCase: Bonilla v. LoCicero\nComment: Another No-Fault \"serious injury\" threshold injury summary judgment motion arising out of an automobile or car accident case, where the accident victim/plaintiff shouldn\u2019t have lost.\nThe defense routinely makes these motions, and they\u2019re usually beatable \u2013 if the accident victim\u2019s lawyers understand the law.\nGenerally, No-Fault insurance pays for accident-related medical care. Also, generally, that benefit is cancelled by the No-Fault insurance carrier fairly quickly; maybe after two or three months.\nThe problem is that most plaintiffs stop treating, even though they may be in pain. The Courts take the position that \"no treatment=no injury,\" and routinely dismiss these car accident cases.\nTo prevail on this point, the plaintiff usually just has to say in his or her affidavit opposing the defense motion that, while they\u2019re still in pain, they stopped treating because: (1) their No-Fault insurance benefits were cut off, (2) they have no other insurance to pay for treatment, and, (3) they can\u2019t afford to pay for medical care themselves. To add icing to this cake, a doctor could also affirm that the accident victim was not being \"cured\" by treatment, which only offered temporary relief from pain and, anyway, the doctor gave the accident victim exercises to do at home which would help nearly as much. The accident victim should confirm this (if it\u2019s true, of course).\nAnd that\u2019s one way it\u2019s done, Dear Readers.\nNO SUMMARY JUDGMENT TO DEFENSE ON NO-FAULT \"SERIOUS INJURY\" THRESHOLD MOTION; CAR ACCIDENT VICTIM HAD KNEE SURGERY 4 MONTHS POST-ACCIDENT (Posted by Brooklyn accident attorney Gary E. Rosenberg on Oct 7, 2011 )\nDEFENSE LOSES NO-FAULT SERIOUS INJURY THRESHOLD SUMMARY JUDGMENT MOTION WHERE ITS EXAMINING DOCTOR DIDN'T MEASURE ACCIDENT VICTIM'S (Posted by Brooklyn accident attorney Gary Rosenberg on Jul 30, 2010)\nIn an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the defendants appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Tanenbaum, J.), dated December 2, 2010, which denied their motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the ground that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law \u00a7 5102(d).\nThe defendants met their prima facie burden of establishing that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law \u00a7 5102(d) as a result of the subject accident (see Toure v. Avis Rent A Car Sys., 98 N.Y.2d 345, 746 N.Y.S.2d 865, 774 N.E.2d 1197; Gaddy v. Eyler, 79 N.Y.2d 955, 956\u2013957, 582 N.Y.S.2d 990, 591 N.E.2d 1176). The plaintiff alleged that, as a result of the subject accident, she sustained certain injuries to the cervical and thoracolumbar regions of her spine, and her left hip. However, the defendants submitted competent medical evidence establishing, prima facie, that none of those alleged injuries constituted a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law \u00a7 5102(d) (see Staff v. Yshua, 59 A.D.3d 614, 874 N.Y.S.2d 180; Rodriguez v. Huerfano, 46 A.D.3d 794, 795, 849 N.Y.S.2d 275). Furthermore, while the plaintiff also alleged that she sustained a serious injury under the 90/180\u2013day category of Insurance Law \u00a7 5102(d), the defendants submitted evidence establishing, prima facie, that during the 180\u2013day period immediately following the subject accident, the plaintiff did not have an injury or impairment which, for more than 90 days, prevented her from performing substantially all of the acts that constituted her usual and customary daily activities (cf. Kin Chong Ku v. Baldwin\u2013Bell, 61 A.D.3d 938, 939, 880 N.Y.S.2d 76).\nIn opposition, the plaintiff failed to provide a reasonable explanation for a cessation of her medical treatment (see Pommells v. Perez, 4 N.Y.3d 566, 574, 797 N.Y.S.2d 380, 830 N.E.2d 278) and failed to raise a triable issue of fact. Accordingly, the Supreme Court should have granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.",

The brickwork is exposed, making it a very vivid basilica and a cathedral of simple beauty, with an opulent interior and the spirit of days gone by when the first Protestant preacher paved the way for a new era here...\nIn 1566, Georg Usler became the first minister of Ratzeburg Cathedral after its conversion to Protestantism, around 300 years after the start of construction of the cathedral, which was founded and made an episcopal church by Henry the Lion. Visitors admiring the pulpit and its relief would be forgiven for thinking that Usler still delivers his sermons there today.\nRatzeburg Cathedral with its cloister and monastic buildings sits atop the island city like a fortress. It is almost fully intact and one of the few late Romantic sites still in existence in Europe. It boasts an opulent interior, including a magnificent Renaissance-style pulpit and a carved winged altar from the late Gothic period with artistically painted tableaus on the back, which visitors would never be able to guess from the outside. The early Baroque high altar, the Gothic sedilia with its intricate carvings and the choir stalls \u2013 the oldest in all of northern Germany, preserved in its original form \u2013 are also unique. The late Romanesque triumphal crucifix with statues of Mary and John under the entrance arch to the transept dominates the entire church. It presides over the room and the human path of the Romanesque church \u2013 out of the darkness and into the light \u2013 symbolised by the pillars which are connected to form an archway. Those who surround themselves with this special religious aura may be able to find their own path here.\nOpening hours: May to September: 10am to 6pm; October to April: 10am to 4pm (closed on Mondays)\nNearest train station: L\u00fcbeck\nFor more information (in German) on the \"Experience the church \u2013 a discovery with all five senses\" tour (for a fee), visit:\nwww.ratzeburgerdom.de",

Sample of mineralized material containing local visible gold from Zone 27 wireframe 101.\nTORONTO, Oct. 11, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Osisko Mining Inc. (the \u201cCompany\u201d or \u201cOsisko\u201d) (TSX:OSK) is pleased to announce that last night the Windfall exploration ramp achieved access to Zone 27, wireframe 115, selected for the initial 5,000 tonne bulk sample (see photo 1 below). The mineralized zone is strongly silicified with sulfides and contains local visible gold (see photo 2 below). The geology observed compares very well with the anticipated zone predicted by drilling and the geological model. The exploration ramp also encountered a mineralized section containing local visible gold in wireframe 101 immediately prior to achieving the targeted 115 wireframe bulk sample area (see photo 3 below). Work in the exploration ramp over the coming weeks will now be focused on collecting the bulk sample which will be transported to a custom milling facility in Ontario for processing in November.\nThe scientific and technical content of this news release has been reviewed, prepared and approved by Mr. Louis Grenier, M.Sc.A., P.Geo. (OGQ 800), Project Manager of Osisko's Windfall Lake gold project, who is a \"qualified person\" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 \u2013 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (\"NI 43-101\").\nAbout the Windfall Lake Gold Deposit\nThe Windfall Lake gold deposit is located between Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in the Abitibi region of Qu\u00e9bec, Canada. The mineral resource defined by Osisko, as disclosed in the Windfall Lake Technical Report (as defined below), comprises 2,382,000 tonnes at 7.85 g/t Au (601,000 ounces) in the indicated mineral resource category and 10,605,000 tonnes at 6.70 g/t Au (2,284,000 ounces) in the inferred mineral resource category. For details regarding the key assumptions, parameters and methods used to estimate the mineral resources presented in respect of the Windfall Lake gold project, please see the technical report entitled \"Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate for the Windfall Lake Project, Windfall Lake and Urban-Barry Properties\" and dated June 12, 2018 (effective date of May 14, 2018), which has been prepared by InnovExplo Inc. from Val-d'Or, Qu\u00e9bec (the \"Windfall Lake Technical Report\"). The Windfall Lake Technical Report is available on Osisko's website at www.osiskomining.com and on SEDAR under Osisko's issuer profile at www.sedar.com). The Windfall Lake gold deposit is currently one of the highest grade resource-stage gold projects in Canada. Mineralization occurs in four principal zones: Lynx, Zone 27, Caribou and Underdog. All zones comprise sub-vertical lenses following intrusive porphyry contacts plunging to the northeast. The deposit is well defined from surface to a depth of 900 metres and remains open along strike and at depth. Mineralization has been identified 30 metres from surface in some areas and as deep as 2000 metres in others, with significant potential to extend mineralization down-plunge and at depth.\nOsisko is a mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of precious metal resource properties in Canada. Osisko holds a 100% in the high-grade Windfall Lake gold deposit located between Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in Qu\u00e9bec and holds a 100% undivided interest in a large area of claims in the surrounding Urban Barry area and nearby Quevillon area (over 3,300 square kilometres), a 100% interest in the Marban project located in the heart of Qu\u00e9bec's prolific Abitibi gold mining district, and properties in the Larder Lake Mining Division in northeast Ontario, including the Jonpol and Garrcon deposits on the Garrison property, the Buffonta past producing mine and the Gold Pike mine property. The Corporation also holds interests and options in a number of additional properties in northern Qu\u00e9bec and Ontario.\nThis news release contains \"forward-looking information\" within the meaning of the applicable Canadian securities legislation that is based on expectations, estimates, projections and interpretations as at the date of this news release.

        "raw_content": "Believe it or not, cigarettes have a long history of existence in various societies across this globe. Though many are torn today at the thought of cigarette smoking, in the past, the majority of the earth\u2019s population were puffing away, as cigarette smoking was a huge fad and trend in this country along with others. As the dangers of smoking cigarettes began to become increasingly apparent, the number of people that smoked them on a consistent basis started to decline. In recent years, vaping has begun to replace the traditional cigarettes. There are many benefits that come with finding a good vape store in Providence, RI that could be good for you socially and internally.\nGet That Stench out of Here\nA huge issue that comes up when talking about cigarette smoke is the long-lasting smell. Cigarettes are made up of tar and other chemicals along with the tobacco, which causes a nasty odor to linger. This stench can cling to anything it touches including your breath, clothes, furniture, walls, and car (to name a few). When you live in a smoke filled environment, you may not notice the small as much or as often, if even at all. You are used to the smell so it does not alarm you as being an out of place stench. Non-smokers are quick to pick up on this lasting odor, as they are not used to being engulfed in this type of environment. This smell could turn out to be a turn off to your peers, and you may be missing out on some good friendships or connections because of it. Look into vape shops in Providence, RI to avoid this smell all together, as vaping produces a vapor that evaporates into the air.\nA Little Better Health\nAlthough tobacco products in general are bad for your health overtime, vaping is a somewhat safer alternative than traditional cigarettes. Being that vapes do not hold all of the chemicals that are built into cigarettes, it is believed that you can avoid a number of issues by making the switch and looking into vape shops in Providence, RI to find your perfect vape.\nCigarettes prices seem to be rising by the day. Depending on how much you vape, finding some good vape shops in Providence, RI may really save you some money. Look into vaping today and save your pockets tomorrow!",

        "raw_content": "Thrombosis Worcester\nEvery year, thousands of people in the UK develop a blood clot in a vein. It\u2019s known as venous thromboembolism (VTE) and is a serious, potentially fatal, medical condition.\nVTE is the collective name for:\nDeep vein thrombosis (DVT) \u2013 a blood clot in in one of the deep veins in the body, usually in one of the legs\nPulmonary embolism \u2013 a blood clot in the blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the lungs\nAlthough serious, most blood clots can be completely avoided. The key is to be aware if you\u2019re at risk and take some simple preventative steps.\nDeep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot that develops within a deep vein in the body, usually in the leg. Blood clots that develop in a vein are also known as venous thrombosis. DVT usually occurs in a deep leg vein, a larger vein that runs through the muscles of the calf and the thigh.\nIt can cause pain and swelling in the leg and may lead to complications such as pulmonary embolism. This is a serious condition that occurs when a piece of blood clot breaks off into the bloodstream and blocks one of the blood vessels in the lungs. DVT and pulmonary embolism together are known as venous thromboembolism (VTE).\nIn some cases, there may be no symptoms of DVT. If symptoms do occur they can include:\nDVT usually (although not always) affects one leg. The pain may be worse when you bend your foot upward towards your knee.\nIf left untreated, about one in 10 people with a DVT will develop a pulmonary embolism. A pulmonary embolism is a very serious condition which causes:\nbreathlessness \u2013 which may come on gradually or suddenly\nchest pain \u2013 which may become worse when you breathe in\nBoth DVT and pulmonary embolism require urgent investigation and treatment.\nSeek immediate medical attention if you have pain, swelling and tenderness in your leg and you develop breathlessness and chest pain.\nEach year, DVT affects around one person in every 1,000 in the UK.\nAnyone can develop DVT, but it becomes more common over the age of 40. As well as age, there are also a number of other risk factors, including:\nhaving a history of DVT or pulmonary embolism\nhaving a family history of blood clots\nbeing inactive for long periods \u2013 such as after an operation or during a long journey\nblood vessel damage \u2013 a damaged blood vessel wall can result in the formation of a blood clot\nhaving certain conditions or treatments that cause your blood to clot more easily than normal \u2013 such as cancer (including chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment), heart and lung disease, thrombophilia and Hughes syndrome\nbeing pregnant \u2013 your blood also clots more easily during pregnancy\nThe combined contraceptive pill and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) both contain the female hormone oestrogen, which causes the blood to clot more easily. If you\u2019re taking either of these, your risk of developing DVT is slightly increased.\nFor more information on thrombosis and haemostasis please do not hesitate to get in touch with Dr Shafeek through our appointments page.",

        "raw_content": "Halliburton profited from deals with Iraq during Saddam Hussein's dictatorship and during Dick Cheney's tenure as CEO. The deals, which began before Halliburton acquired the two subsidiaries responsible for them, were conducted discreetly through several Halliburton subsidiaries in Europe.\nThe deals with Iraq were legal, but, as Martin Lee of the San Francisco Bay Guardian has put it, \"in terms of sheer hypocrisy, Halliburton's relationship with Saddam Hussein is hard to top.\"1\nDuring the 2000 presidential campaign Cheney acknowledged that the company did business with Libya and Iran, yet for some reason he claimed: \"Iraq's different.\"\nIn an August 2000 segment of ABC's This Week news program, reporter Sam Donaldson had this exchange with Cheney:\nDonaldson: I'm told, and correct me if I'm wrong, that Halliburton, through subsidiaries, was actually trying to do business in Iraq?\nCheney: No. No. I had a firm policy that I wouldn't do anything in Iraq - even arrangements that were supposedly legal. We've not done any business in Iraq since U.N. sanctions were imposed on Iraq in 1990, and I had a standing policy that I wouldn't do that.\nYet the Washington Post reported soon after Cheney came into office in January 2001 that oil industry executives and confidential UN records revealed that Halliburton held stakes in two firms -- Dresser Rand and Ingersoll-Dresser Pump -- that signed contracts to sell more than $73 million in oil production equipment and spare parts to Iraq from the first half of 1997 through the summer of 2000 -- while Cheney was chairman and CEO of the company. Apart from complying with the law, the executives say, there was no specific policy related to the issue at Halliburton, as Cheney claimed.\nConfidential U.N. documents viewed by the Post detailed more than $2.5 million in contracts between Ingersoll Dresser Pump Co. and Iraq that were blocked by the Clinton administration. The equipment was never delivered to Iraq.\nThe Democrats didn't make much of the issue during the 2000 election because the rest of the deal was legal under the UN's oil-for-food program and did not violate the foreign policy of the Clinton administration. In addition, the Democrats had their own potential skeletons in the closet. Former CIA Director John Deutsch, who had served in a Democratic administration, was on the board of Schlumberger, the second-largest U.S. oil-services firm, while it did business with Saddam Hussein during the Clinton years through overseas subsidiaries. In fact, Halliburton was among more than a dozen American firms that supplied Iraq's petroleum industry with spare parts and retooled its oil rigs when U.N. sanctions were eased in 1998.2\nThe U.S. ambassador to the United Nations told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that many American companies paid bribes to Saddam Hussein for illegal Iraqi business contracts during the 1990s. The Bush administration is concealing the names of those companies despite calls from Congress to make them public. Is the Bush administration concealing the names because Halliburton is on the list?\nWashington Post: Firm's Iraq Deals Greater Than Cheney Has Said\nTranscript of Cheney on ABC's 'This Week'\nBush Conceals Names of U.S. Firms That Paid Kickbacks to Saddam\n1. Martin A. Lee, \"Cheney's Oil Company in Shady Business Deals with Iraq,\" November 13, 2000.",

I worked at Georgetown\u2019s Medical Center for over 12 years with positions in the Emergency Room and on its Surgical and Labor & Delivery units. I\u2019ve also enjoyed many years teaching at the nursing school, conducting childbirth education and working with midwives.\nIn 1996, I moved with my family to Amsterdam, Netherlands. During these past 13 years I has been very busy raising my three kids with my Dutch husband. In the Netherlands, I turned to many different forms of alternative medicine, and was constantly amazed by the positive changes they brought to me and my family. Over the past 4 years, I have guided many into healing through nutritional supplements and dietary adjustments. The results have been remarkable.\nI was very excited about meeting Eric Pearl and working with Reconnective frequencies. I has seen and noticed tremendous transformations in the physical, emotional and spiritual dimensions of those who received the Reconnection Healing\u00ae as well as The Reconnection\u00ae. These frequencies give each person what they need. I also work with Polarity Healing that re-balances the body\u2019s magnetic field, and with Reflexology. I believe I am here to help others with their own personal journey and healing process and alleviate suffering.\nI am honored to be part of the process of gaining health and healing and I\u2019m humbled by the miracles I witness daily.\nIf you\u2019re interested in working with me, you can contact me through my Contact page, call me for a session, or come and attend one of the regular Events I host at my home, where you\u2019ll be able to ask me your questions in person!",

This stunning family home is located on a hill above Los Angeles, California, USA.\nOriole Way in Los Angeles, details by McClean Design:\nAt the end of Oriole Way overlooking Sunset Strip, this lot was more of a cliff than a site but has one of the best views in the city. The challenge was to graft the house onto the hillside and create a suitable entry experience and enough living space bearing in mind the steep topography. Our solution was to separate the garage and parking area from the entry of the house. This took advantage of the street slope to allow pedestrians to enter at the main level of the home while giving us the opportunity to create a water and light filled entry courtyard. The house is laid out over three levels. The lower level contains bedrooms, a large dedicated theatre, gym and wine room. The main level consists of the entry, living, dining and kitchen spaces as well as the master bedroom. The upper level, a loft space, additional bedroom and a roof terrace over the master. The pool is unique in that it has an infinity edge on four sides. The two story living room is a rarity in the neighborhood and coupled with light coming from all sides gives the house an expansive feel. The palette for the house is sleek Hollywood; black and white, shiny and suede making plenty of use of marble, dark granite and chrome as well as high gloss cabinets and custom wall paper.\nFiled in: California, Contemporary Fireplace, Contemporary Homes, Los Angeles, United States, USA\nCategories: Architecture, Bathroom, Bedroom, Dining Space, Houses, Lighting, Living Space, Outdoor Furniture, Pool, Terrace",

Or perhaps others you may wish to influence, besides simply hiring managers, who may choose to do a search on bing or yahoo, rather than google? What about dealing with those search engines as well? For those interested in online search results, this can sometimes be very important.\nFortunately for those interested in an Online Reputation Management campaign, bing and yahoo work a little differently than google does by design. While google tends to favor older postings and articles in its search engine rankings, bing and yahoo tend to favor newer content, and user generated content, and rank it somewhat higher than google does -- and this is a part of their business model. They therefore can be somewhat easier to influence with new content. This is because, at this point in time, google can be thought somewhat of as the \u201cma bell\u201d of search engines in a way, and as such, tends to favor a more traditionalist approach in which they favor articles and postings that have been part of their rankings for many years, or are simply older in terms of date created, and because of this google can be somewhat (keyword: somewhat) harder to influence. Whereas bing and yahoo, respectively, being the newcomer and up-and-comer, and both having a smaller market share, to compete with in regards to google, allow new and dynamic content generated recently to influence their rankings much more, and this makes them somewhat easier to handle as part of a Reputation Management campaign.\nThe flipside is of course, that more people as we've said do use google, and as such their results should be taken a bit more seriously, but if you leave out the other search engines, you\u2019re leaving out half (yes, half) of the battle, and it\u2019s important to think about how to deal with them too.\nIf you\u2019re interested in an Online Reputation Management campaign, would like some help on how to get started, how to deal with google, yahoo, or bing, or all three, or would just like some advice about how to proceed, feel free to give us a call. We have software and tools, techniques, services, and know-how that can help improve your search results, and get you on the road to ORM success quickly; don\u2019t wait -- call HopLite today!",

        "title": "Hargrave",
        "raw_content": "About Hargrave\nOur company was originally known as the top yacht design firm in America when, under the direction of legendary designer Jack Hargrave, the company played an important role in the success of companies like Hatteras, Burger, Amels, Prairie, Atlantic & Halmatic to name just a few.\nIn 1997, shortly after legendary designer Jack Hargrave passed away, Michael Joyce returned to the company after an absence of twenty years to take over as president and CEO. Recognizing that Hargrave was far more than a design office, Joyce explained to Boating Industry International Magazine that Jack\u2019s name was in fact a \u201cbrand name\u201d and outlined his plans to begin construction of luxury yachts under the Hargrave banner.\nBringing the Hargrave name into the future first required an admission that the yachting industry had changed. The most successful builders now had their own in-house design and engineering department, and the role of the independent naval architect was changing. Joyce, who had spent his career in the sales, service and distribution side of business, realized that if Hargrave was going to play a key role in the future of the industry, they would have to do it on their own and could no longer rely on builders for their future business.\n\u201cIn our company we measure our design objectives against Jack Hargrave\u2019s dictum that, at the end of the day, the boat has to perform at sea. Everything else in the design process needs to bend to that single principle. It\u2019s the right way to do it, and at Hargrave, it\u2019s the only way to do it,\u201d said Mr. Joyce.\nMichael Joyce, head of Hargrave Custom Yachts, has always been an innovator. Embracing the changing times and the technological miracles of our age, he has been able to employ technology without succumbing to it. As a visionary entrepreneur with a passion for the finest traditions in yachting and thirty years experience as a CEO in the industry, he knew it was the right time for a truly custom yacht in the 80' \u2013 100' size range with realistic pricing to enter the market.\nHis use of computer-aided design and contemporary modes of communication helped bring the Hargrave Company into the 21st Century. Mr. Joyce stated, \u201cToday, demanding buyers customize everything they purchase in life. The computer industry builds computers to order, based on each individual customer\u2019s specifications, heck, even Wendy\u2019s makes hamburgers to order so why not yachts?\u201d\nMichael Joyce has a way of bringing the best of yesterday and today together for a new and better tomorrow. Hargrave has grown in only a few short years to be recognized as a reputable yacht designer, builder and distributor of world-class yachts. We are now well past our initial goal of 50 orders since starting our construction program, we average fourteen to seventeen yachts under construction at one time, and have nine all new models going through development and prototyping at the Hargrave Concept Studio. Over 52% of our owners have built more than one yacht with us and some are now on their fourth order! Maybe it\u2019s time for you to take a close look at Hargrave.",

        "title": "Credit Union Personal Loans \u2013 Choice for Home Lending",
        "raw_content": "Personal Loans by Credit Union in USA\nThere are millions of Americans that belong to a credit union but a whole lot of them do not really understand what they are. Unions are effectively co-operatives whose members share something in common based upon their location, their employment or their membership of other bodies. There are over 7,500 credit unions in the USA today those are helping to access easy hard cash lenders and membership is in excess of 90 million. When you consider that there are 133 million with credit cards it is clear that credit unions are just as prominent part of the financial life of the USA.\nThere is still some caution about lending because of the volume of toxic debt that occurred as the recession started. The Internet helps anyone wanting to borrow money by explaining what is available. Credit Unions are certainly something to investigate.\nCompetitive Financial Services\nTheir \u2018\u2019non-profit making\u2019\u2019 status helps them to offer competitive financial services to their members and hence they are a logical place to go for personal loans. Traditional financial institutions are perhaps a little more cautious after the problems many experienced during the recession. The consequence is that it is rare that those institutions are the first place for anyone to go unless they have an impeccable credit history. Their chances of being approved for a loan are far from guaranteed.\nDirectors Are Volunteers\nCredit unions are popular for another basic reason. Their directors are elected by the membership and then work on a voluntary basis. As a result each member can feel that he or she is more involved than they would be dealing with a traditional financial institution. Everyone has a single vote with equal weight unlike mutual banks where the amount of the deposit is decisive in determining voting or publicly owned banks where it is a matter of stock holding. No credit union director has any vested interest elsewhere in contrast to directors of banks potentially representing a range of other interests.\nCredit Union personal loans are popular precisely because the interest paid by borrowers is used to generate more funds for others to be able to use, not to pay shareholders or directors\u2019 fees. These Unions are fully insured and work within US Government financial guidelines so there is no issue of security for those who decide to approach their legal hard cash for a loan.\nBudgets Are Common Sense\nWhile the level of consumer debt in the USA is fairly high, there is some cause for concern about potential financial problems in society. Those families that have an organized budget will point to the fact that they are aware of their spending and saving and thus while interest rates are low they are in control. Personal loans are usually repaid by equal installments through a term of something like 36 months. Those monthly payments that are included in the expenditure column of their budget are justified as long as the budget is not showing a deficit each month.\nCertainly a personal loan is a far better way to take credit than using a credit card because of the high rate of interest applied to any outstanding balance at the month end. Credit cards can become a real burden if used incorrectly. There are times when you may need to finance a purchase and you do not have the cash to buy it. Household repairs or renovations, a car or perhaps funding a special occasion can be done with a loan with the cost spread of a period. It is rare that a family can run more than a single personal loan at any one time.\nEveryone should plan their spending. Things like the recession can ruin the best of plans but they are rare occurrences. Financial management is a skill that is not taught at school and sometimes people have to learn the hard way. Credit needs to be used properly. It should never be used to actually support daily living. People who analyze their spending to make sure that they can support their lifestyle properly need have no worries about getting loans for specific projects.\nEvery credit unions is there to help its members. Reserves are intended to be used to provide loans and lines of credit and their success at doing that is the reason why membership of a credit union is so beneficial, especially if you want a loan.\nAt a commercial level assets have a value that companies can use as collateral against advances to help further investment. Consumers seeking loans may decide that they need to use what assets they have to obtain the money they need to live. Those in financial difficulty may have little choice; if they can regain those assets in the future then great. In consumer finance loans are regularly sought by applicants in need of immediate and short term cash because they have no assets and no money to meet their bills until pay day arrives.\nOnline lenders offer a number of different financial products that address consumer issues and one of them is designed to address emergencies in the short term. These \u2018\u2019overnight loans\u2019\u2019 are commonly called payday loans. Applicants in need of money to bridge the time until the next pay check arrives value this service even though the interest rate charged will be fairly high. In some States of the USA there is a limit to what interest rate can be applied incidentally. The product is widely available online and established companies with good websites will explain the whole process involved in applying and how the loan is to be repaid. It is important to understand the terms and conditions of any loan; if they are acceptable then go ahead and sign up.\nMeeting an Emergency\nIn an ideal world everyone would have an emergency fund for holidays to solve any financial problems but the reality is that few people actually have one. Indeed many appear to be living beyond their means if the average level of credit card debt is considered. Some people pay off their month end balance in full to avoid paying interest. When you look at those that don\u2019t the average debt is in excess of $15,000 and every month a high rate of interest is applied after the minimum payment is subtracted. Those in need of a short term loan clearly either have no card or have reached their permitted credit limit. Clearly there are many in society like this and often their poor credit score leaves them with few alternatives.\nPart of a Strategy\nOvernight loans for bad credit applicants is the answer but should be part of a financial strategy to improve their affairs. People who live from one pay check to another and come up short, hence the title loan, should look at their spending as a matter of urgency. Some will claim that as they are within the low pay band it is not possible to meet every bill each month. Unfortunately bills do not pay themselves. The answer is to either seek an additional source of income or look to make savings.\nThere is nothing wrong with these loans as such because they provide a service to those in desperate need of them. The problem arises if they are needed month after month because of lack of control. That control initially may require some sacrifices and economies. If you are in the position that has been described then you need to write down every detail of your monthly expenditure to see where possible savings can be made.\nThere are comparative websites that look at some of the common forms of expenditure; insurance, utilities and telephone networks are three prime examples. It is entirely possible that you can save money in each of these three areas. That would certainly relieve some of the pressure. Daily spending, just a few dollars a day adds up over a month. You need to ask yourself whether there are things that you can do such as avoiding the coffee shop or buying a newspaper. If that helps it is certainly a small sacrifice but little more if by doing so you begin to change your finances.\nIt is all too easy to pay the minimum amount a credit card company requires at the end of the month. If you have reached your card limit then you can no longer rely on a card for an emergency. You will notice that once you make your monthly payment the addition of interest will mean that your resulting balance will hardly fall. You will be years paying it off when all you are doing is paying the minimum. Overnight loans can then become your solution but they do not do other than provide a temporary solution. Whether you seek help or not you must remember that life will get no easier unless you have a financial strategy to help you. Use overnight loans as the beginning of that.",

        "raw_content": "Thursday, February 7, 2019 12:10 PM - 1:10 PM\nHuman rights advocates have at times been critiqued for discounting or even undermining rights-holders\u2019 efforts to promote change, constructing rights-holders as merely \u201cvictims\u201d and adopting a \u201csavior\u201d mentality. Such practices risk increasing the marginalization and victimization of rights-holders, and at times can even recreate structural barriers to empowerment. But how have advocates responded to this critique in their practice? What have been some of the most difficult challenges to implementing a more critically-responsive form of practice, and how have advocates addressed those challenges?\nJoin us for a discussion with Jackie Dugard and Benjamin Hoffman who will address those questions, drawing upon the efforts of a group of advocates and rightsholders using strategic litigation to advance socio-economic rights in South Africa.\nJackie Dugard is an Associate Professor at the School of Law, University of the Witwatersrand. She served as a Senior Researcher at the Centre for Applied Legal Studies from 2004 to 2009, working on socio-economic rights-related research, advocacy and litigation. In Jan 2010, she co-founded and became the first Executive Director of the Socio-Economic Rights Institute of South Africa, a leading socio-economic rights NGO that engages in research, advocacy and litigation aimed at advancing access to socio-economic rights.\nBenjamin Hoffman is Deputy Director of the Human Rights Clinic at Columbia Law School. Ben's work and scholarship focus on the integration of community collaboration and co-empowerment in transnational human rights advocacy strategies and methodology. Prior to joining Columbia, Ben worked with EarthRights International in Lima, Peru, providing litigation support to communities from the Andean-Amazonian region resisting the harmful consequences of resource extraction and mega-development projects. He received his J.D. from Harvard Law School and his B.A. from the University of California, Berkeley.\nIntroduction by Inga Winkler, Lecturer in Human Rights at the Institute for the Study of Human Rights.\nThis event will be livestreamed at: https://echo360.org/section/df524bd1-88f5-4f25-8e84-ae8eb61bed86/public.",

        "raw_content": "Egyptians race to expand Suez Canal, hoping for trade surge\nISMAILIA - The Associated Press\nIn this Feb. 4, 2015 file photo, bulldozers and trucks work on a new section of the Suez Canal during a media tour, in Ismailia, Egypt. AP Photo.\nBulldozers push earth and dredgers spit mud round the clock at Egypt\u2019s Suez Canal in a race to quickly expand the strategic waterway for two-way traffic, a project trumpeted by President Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi to revive both the country\u2019s damaged economy and visions of nationalist glory.\nThe government\u2019s goal of more than doubling annual canal revenues to some $13 billion in less than a decade, however, appears overly ambitious. Although more vessels will be drawn to the canal because there will be almost no wait time, any major increase depends on something unlikely to happen soon, analysts and shippers say - a large jump in European demand fueling greater shipping from Asia.\n\u201cIt all depends on the trade volume between East and West, not the capacity of the canal,\u201d said Xu Zhibin, managing director for the Egyptian affiliate of China\u2019s state-owned COSCO, one of the world\u2019s top container shippers. \u201cVolume will rise if the European economy begins to boom ... As of now I don\u2019t think that there will be an increase in volume.\u201d\nThe expansion\u2019s importance is more long term, as it will better position the canal to keep its prominence in the future. In the short term, it appears to be more of a prestige exercise to boost national pride after four years of demoralizing turmoil and to shore up the image of President Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi as the savior of the nation. Egypt\u2019s economy has been battered since the 2011 uprising that ousted longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak. His successor Mohammed Morsi, an elected but divisive Islamist, was overthrown by then-army chief el-Sissi during mass protests in 2013.\nEl-Sisi, who was elected president last spring, has risen on promises to stabilize the country and rebuild the economy. In a dramatic move after his election, he ordered that the Suez Canal expansion, envisaged as a three-year project, instead be completed in one year.\nThe military is directing the work, which involves digging a new waterway running for 35 kilometers parallel to the canal to end in the Red Sea, while deepening and expanding existing bypasses. Authorities say it is on track to open in August.\nAt the Suez Canal Authority\u2019s headquarters in Ismailia, films shown to journalists and potential investors lavish praise on el-Sissi with an almost Soviet-era extravagance. Men in the footage thank God for his arrival and elderly women call him \u201cpure\u201d and \u201cgood.\u201d In televised speeches in which el-Sissi has touted the canal, martial music plays over footage of special forces, tanks and fighter jets interspersed with shots of a vigilant el-Sissi directing officials and inspecting operations.",

I was passionate about it and nothing could turn me away from art and design.\u201d\nBut that was before the war that has been ravaging his homeland since 2011 -- and before the army of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad began calling up young men like him for conscription.\n\u201cIt wasn\u2019t bombs that I fled -- it was the possibility of becoming one of those people throwing the bombs,\u201d says Rafik, who like other refugees would only give his first name.\nFurther up the road, Ahmad dozes at a restaurant.\n\u201cMy parents gave everything so I could do my accountancy studies,\u201d says the 24-year-old.\n\u201cToday I find myself far from them, in a country where I haven\u2019t mastered the language and where, as a waiter, I have to do everything in the restaurant.\u201d\nBut Ahmad has no regrets over his decision to head to Istanbul two years ago -- even though he earns only 900 Turkish liras ($310) a month as a waiter and has to share a flat with three other Syrians to cover the rent.\n\u201cI had the choice between war and exile, and I didn\u2019t even hesitate,\u201d he says.\nTurkey has taken in 2.7 million people from neighboring Syria since the start of the brutal conflict.\nAnkara has refused to grant them official refugee status, referring to them as \u201cguests,\u201d though President Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan signaled recently that they could eventually be granted citizenship.\nVery few have work permits and many struggle to eke out a living on odd jobs.\nAround a tenth live in refugee camps, the rest in towns and cities -- including some 350,000 who have come to Istanbul.\nNour, 26, arrived in the city alone a few months ago and now works as a receptionist in a language school founded by a fellow Syrian.\n\u201cI know I\u2019m luckier than a lot of other Syrians who live in tents or who beg in the street, but that\u2019s not enough to make me happy here,\u201d she says, her voice cracking.\nBut she expresses pride at how young Syrians in Istanbul are doing their best to fit in.\n\u201cI feel like I can be useful to my compatriots here,\u201d she said.\n\u201cSince our country can\u2019t offer us anything anymore, we have to adapt to the Turks who have welcomed us and learn their language.\n\u201cOur students are mainly young Syrians in their 20s and 30s. They are very motivated and in less than six months they\u2019re getting by in Turkish.\u201d\nMaher, a 29-year-old hairdresser, had his own salon in Damascus; here, he\u2019s working for someone else.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not exactly the future I dreamed of,\u201d he admits. \u201cI hope I can go home one day.\u201d\nBut pastry-seller Rafik doesn\u2019t see himself ever going back to Syria.\n\u201cIn 1948 the Palestinians thought they\u2019d be going home in a few days -- look where they are today,\u201d he says.\n\u201cWe don\u2019t have a country anymore.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "After so many years of dealing with skincare issues, I\u2019ve finally nailed down a solution \u2013 or at least for now. I\u2019ve told this story a few times, but ever since I moved to Dubai, I started dealing with adult acne. At first I thought it could be an intolerance to gluten \u2013 I also had sharp stomach pains. But after a few tests, I learned that I had food intolerances. My doctor told me those are common nowadays. Mostly because of what\u2019s added/done to the foods we eat. He also said that these change every 6/8 months. And this threw me off a bit.\nHow am I supposed to deal with a problem that will not be the same in a few months? After the anger subsided, I figured that, there were some changes that needed to be done. I started by cutting a few food groups off my list. Dairy, eggs, sugary drinks, processed foods and more often than not, meat. It wasn\u2019t a 100% cut, because every now and then, I still have a few of those items \u2013 like cheese on a pizza. But for the most part, they aren\u2019t a part of my grocery list.\nThen, I turned to my beauty and skincare routine. In the beginning of the year, I cut off all makeup products and stuck to skincare only. While I noticed some visible changes, it still wasn\u2019t enough. I was still faced with pimples, black heads and unevenness on my chin and around my mouth. This can really mess up someone\u2019s self esteem, especially because it\u2019s right there in your face.\nI started digging deeper and found a lot of articles like this one. Talking about how probiotics and vitamins can help beyond your outside wellness. The expression, beauty comes from within, never made more sense. And while a lot of the things I read can be fading trends, others actually worked for me. I started by ordering this organic powder. Every single morning, before anything else, I chug a glass of water with a spoon full of it.\nSecond step was looking into vitamins. I was never an advocate for them \u2013 for no particular reason. But after reading about how they can help target specific needs, I decided to give it a try and came across HUM. Because I have food intolerances, I decided to start with digestive enzymes that help improve my digestion. These two products help me regulate perfectly my stomach and gut flow. While translating into a healthier looking skin \u2013 which is my end goal.\nWhile I\u2019m still experimenting, I\u2019m focused on having a healthy diet, skincare and exercise routine, and doing everything with a grain of salt. I have to restrict myself most of the times, but also allow to cheat here and there. The most important thing is how you feel at the end of the day, especially when it comes to food and supplements.\nOf course, I\u2019m not an expert and, what works for me might not work for you. Check with your physician or even take the HUM quiz to find out what you need to focus on. Thank you to HUM Nutrition for sponsoring this post.

        "title": "HyperWar: British War Production [Preface]",
        "raw_content": "The present volume has been designed to introduce a series. In his preface to British War Economy Professor Hancock, the General Editor of the Civil Histories of the War, made it clear that the studies concerned with war industry and with the four supply ministries would from a self-contained group of volumes, a series within a larger series. The plan of the war-production histories, which was announced at about the same time, was perhaps more ambitious than the books which are now taking shape. But the general composition of the series has not been much altered. The volumes which are now nearing completion will deal with the supply and control of raw materials, with the supply and utilisation of labour in the munitions industry, with the provision of factories, plant and machine tools, with the administrative machinery of the supply departments, with the finance of war production and with overseas supplies. There may also be a composite volume dealing with the design and development of weapons. It was also part of the original plan to introduce the series by a 'synoptic' volume covering the entire field of war production. In fulfilment of this plan the present volume is now offered.\nThe introductory character of this volume will account for some of its obvious features. That in a general survey of this kind a number of topics should be treated very briefly is something to be expected; and from the point of view of a general reader, or of a ready about to proceed to the specialist volumes, this brevity may turn out to be a fault on the right side. What both the general reader and the serious student may find less to their liking is the book's lack of consistency in the distribution of space and detail. Whereas some topics, such as the changing demand for weapons or the trends of output and deliveries are treated at some length, other topics, such as raw materials, labour or industrial capacity, are sketched out in mere outline.\nThe repeated changes in the scale of the narrative interfered with its writing as much as they may interfere with its reading, but they were nevertheless inevitable. In accordance with its introductory and synoptic purpose, this volume embraces the various subjects which form the themes of the specialist volumes. The subjects had to be treated briefly is they were to be accommodated between the two covers; and this could be done in the knowledge that they due to receive fuller treatment in other studies. The introductory volume must, however, contain certain other subjects which could not be thus compressed. Although most of the field of war production had\n--xiii--\nbeen partitioned among the specialist volume, the partition was not, and could not be, so perfect as to leave no unappropriated residue. Above all, the general trends of demand and supply, i.e. the strategic and economic factors which shaped the 'programmes' of the Services and determined the flow of 'deliveries', could not be easily relegated to later volumes. They were the common denominator of all the other studies, and, besides, could not be expounded without ranging over every aspect of war industry. They had therefore from the very outset been defined as 'introductory' and consigned solely to the synoptic volume. And, so consigned, they had to be allowed more space and a greater ration of detail than the subjects which were due to be dealt with more fully elsewhere.\nThis inequality of scale has, so to speak, been planned. Other inequalities have been forced by circumstances unforeseen at the time of planning. The political and psychological climate in which this book was conceived is not the climate in which it is now destined to see the light of day. With the country in the midst of another effort of rearmament the interests of security demand that some topics should be eschewed altogether and that others should be cast in a form less specific than that which had at first been intended for them. Thus, the whole of the projected chapter on the quality of weapons, dealing with the problems of design, development, research and innovation has been scrapped. Such fragments of the subject as can conveniently be discussed and are intimately related to the story of production, e.g. the quality of tanks before 1944, the early history of radar, the relation of modifications to new design in aircraft production, have been salvaged from the projected chapter and incorporated in other parts of the book.\nThe main victims of the new circumstances had been the two concluding chapters of the study. In the original plan a large section, nearly half of the volume, was to be devoted to industrial topics. It was to deal with the size and structure of undertakings, with the managerial and technical processes in factories, with utilisation of space and machinery, with the behaviour and position of labour: in short, with the the whole complex of subjects which in academic classification belong to the 'economics and sociology of industry'. This, if done, would not only have rounded off the survey but might also have improved its balance. For, in general, the civil histories of the war are, to use the phrase in Professor Hancock's preface, 'anchored to the records of Government departments'. They are written in Government offices, are planned and executed in constant consultation with civil servants and are, therefore, bound to occupy themselves with the actions of ministers and officials, and to deal obliquely and incompletely with events and processes of the nation at large. At the time when the present volume was in preparation, there was some\n--xiv--\nhope that its very subject would have made it possible to redress somewhat the 'departmental' bias of the series as a whole. The records and publications of a number of firms had to be consulted, numerous industrial undertakings to be visited, views of managers and employees to be take; and this appeared to offer an opportunity for planning a large 'industrial' section. Unfortunately, this hope could not be entirely fulfilled. To have done this int he manner originally planned would have meant to discuss in great detail the experience of firms and factories which are now again engaged in the making of weapons, sometimes the same weapons which they made in the last war. Considerations of security have now made this inadvisable, and, as a result, two brief and general chapters have taken the place of what was to be a large part of the volume.\nThe necessities of a synoptic study have determined not only the choice of topics and the internal balance of the volume, but also the very process and technique of its composition. Like all the other volumes in the civil histories this volume is based on a vast mass of original material. Most writers of individual volumes in civil histories have found their documentation voluminous to the point of being overwhelming. How much more voluminous and overwhelming must then be the documentation of a volume covering the entire field of war production and based upon the records of four Government departments and a large number of industrial undertakings! The number of files which had to be read or looked through in the preparation of this volume may well have run into a score of thousands; recorded testimonies, opinions and reminiscences into many hundreds.\nThe composition of this volume had therefore to begin with a cooperative effort of pre-digestion. Much of the material had first to be turned into narratives capable of being used in the writing of this book in much the same way in which secondary authorities are used in the writing of ordinary historical treatises. Some, perhaps most, of the narratives I had to compile myself, a number of others are the work of my colleagues and assistants, and some have in fact been written as contributions to the other volumes in the series.\nThis volume thus owes a great deal to the researches of colleagues who will be producing books of their own. But some credit also belongs to others who will not be able to publish the results of their researches under their own names; and, of those, I should especially like to mention Mr. L. Errington and Mrs. D. Fearon, who investigated the naval programmes; Mr. C. Wrigley, who wrote the story of merchant ship building; Mrs. E. Bridge, who complied an account of the repair of aircraft; and Mr. D. Mack Smith, who cooperated with me in the writing of the preliminary story of the Royal Ordnance Factories. Throughout the year of my work on the history of war\n--xv--\nproduction I have have also had the good fortunate of being helped by a succession of personal assistants without whom the task would have been utterly unmanageable: by my wife, by Mrs. Geoffrey Agnew, by Miss A. Nicholson and, above all, by Miss I. Bains, on whom fell most of the work of helping me with drafting of the final version of this book, and seeing it through most of the stages of correction, proof-reading and indexing. It wish space, conventions of the Civil Service and the rules established for the volumes in the 'civil series' allowed me to mention by name the very many persons in the Government departments, in industry and politics, who helped me with information, documents, criticism and encouragement. But they all know how much this volume owes to them and how conscious I am of my debt to them.\nM. M.

        "raw_content": "Construction of Policy-Evaluation-Oriented National Transfer Accounts - Proposing and Evaluating Policies on Low Fertility and Population Aging\nRecipient of Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (Specially Promoted Research) for the field of Humanities and Social Sciences, given by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS).\nFull project title: \"Construction of Policy-Evaluation-Oriented and Heterogeneity-Sensitive National Transfer Accounts and their Application to Policies for Coping with Declining Fertility and Population Aging\"\nPurpose and Background of the Research\nThe National Transfer Accounts (NTA) is a new tool for analyzing intergenerational income transfers in the conditions of rapid population aging, widely used by international organizations such as the World Bank, IMF, and the UN. It is an epoch making tool in that it captures both private and public average intergenerational income transfers at a point in time in an internationally comparable way. In the present research, we endeavor to expand the NTA so as to capture not only the average income, but also income heterogeneity (in relation to household composition, health status of household members, and socio-economic status), as well as income across the life cycle. In addition, we will create an NTA framework that can, beside income transfers, also capture intergenerational time transfers, in child-rearing or caring for the elderly parents, for example. We will also develop a framework that allows us to assess policy effects by taking into account household and firm responses to policy changes, and will use it to evaluate various policies regarding low fertility and aging.\nThe current NTA framework is a reduced form analysis, treating consumption and labor income as endogenous variables and age as an exogenous variable. We introduce structural models of households and firms in the NTA framework. The household structural model provides a framework for introducing heterogeneity in households, and at the same time provides a way to consider life-cycle income transfers and intergenerational time transfers. The firm structural model allows us to consider how firms substitute or complement workers with different age and how such companies react to government policies. These models are used to capture (private and public) intergenerational income and time transfers over the life cycle, and serve as a base for predicting how household and firms react to different government policies.\nExpected Research Achievements andScientific Significance\nIn this project we will create a new NTA framework that captures how intergenerational income and time transfers vary across different types of households and examines how households and firms react to different government policies. That will enable us to properly evaluate policies, such as raising the pension eligibility age and encouraging firms to employ more women and the elderly. The new framework will also allow us to clearly examine life-time income distribution, instead of simple, cross-sectional distribution. We will also introduce age-dependent price index to reflect differences in consumption content across different age groups. The planned examination of time transfers in addition to income transfers is expected to shed new light on the factors that affect labor supply and female fertility. In addition, the new data sets, the \u201cJapanese Study on Aging and Retirement\u201d and the \u201cNational Survey on Work and Family\u201d that are essential for the present research, will be made publically available and are expected to be widely used by other researchers.\nPublications Relevant to the Project\nIchimura, H., H.

Population aging is especially rapid in Japan where the proportion of those 65 and over has reached 25% in 2013 and is projected to soar to 33% in 2035. In Japan issues related to aging have largely been addressed in terms of how to secure the necessary financial resources to support the social security system and no effective reform plans with serious considerations of incentives and diversity have been presented. A lack of comprehensive individual-level data has been a major hurdle for comprehending individual diversity in socioeconomic, health and familial conditions and for assessing policy effects on these individuals.\nOur project aims to contribute to effective policy making and assessment in the fields of social security, labor market, education, health, and care for children and the elderly, by applying a new, expanded policy-oriented version of the National Transfer Accounts (NTA). Concretely, the NTA will be reinforced by a new policy simulation model utilizing data on the elderly and younger population cohorts collected by two major Japanese surveys: the Japanese Study on Aging and Retirement (JSTAR) and Nihon University\u2019s Survey on Work and Family (NSWF). Moreover, the new, expanded NTA will also deal with estimations of labor demand by firms and deflators for each age group, and will thus make our simulations more realistic.\nThe NTA are a system that measures, at the aggregate level, how persons at each age acquire and use economic resources. They have been constructed in a manner consistent with the National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA). The NTA system contains two major components. The first is a detailed accounting of the economic lifecycle, consisting of consumption, labor income and their constituent elements. As people move through their lives, there are periods, such as childhood and old age, when their material needs are not matched by their ability to produce goods and services and they consume more than they produce, thus generating lifecycle deficits (LCD), while, on the other hand, during their prime working ages, they produce far more than they consume, generating lifecycle surpluses. The second component of NTA measures the flows of economic resources, both private and public, from lifecycle surplus to deficit ages. The NTA system offers a comprehensive and coherent treatment of economic flows (For further details, see: www.ntaccounts.org). NTA research commenced in 2003.\nThe Global NTA project is led by professors R. Lee from UC Berkeley and A. Mason from the University of Hawaii and encompasses 46 countries. The usefulness of NTA has been recognized by international organizations such as the UN, World Bank and the WHO. Recently the UN joined the efforts to disseminate the NTA methodology, viewed as a tool for tackling issues related to population aging and economic development that can be used by its member states in formulating their national development plans, by publishing the UN \u201cNational Transfer Accounts Manual: Measuring and Analyzing Generational Economy\u201d in 2013.\nHowever, currently the NTA system offers only macro indicators of labor income, consumption and their constituents broken by age, from which it is possible to calculate the average value for each of the variables for each age group. As such, NTA does not address disparity within the same age group that arises due to different health and work status, different family structure, place of residence, etc. Understanding such differences in individual responses to policy changes and the mechanisms underlying them is essential for formulating effective policies to cope with population aging, which is why there is a strong need to collect more information and expand NTA. That will be achieved by relying on the following two survey data sources which have a broad coverage:\n(1) The Japanese Study on Aging and Retirement (JSTAR) is a longitudinal panel survey conducted on the population aged 50 to 75, intended for collecting large, representative samples of data on the income and expenditure, retirement plans and health of the middle-aged and elderly people. Despite rapid population aging, Japan has lagged behind other developed and even some developing countries in conducting such surveys, which is why the causes of Japan\u2019s remarkably high life expectancy, late retirement and low ratio of medical expenses to GDP are not well understood. To fill this gap, the 1st round of JSTAR was conducted in 2007 by H. Ichimura, and S. Shimizutani, with the 2nd, and 3rd rounds following in 2009 and 2011, and the 4th round being currently implemented. JSTAR achieved a response rate of approximately 60%, thereby meeting international survey standards, and soon became an internationally recognized panel survey on middle-aged and elderly persons. Also, JSTAR is one of the subjects in RAND\u2019s effort to harmonize questionnaires for international comparison. (For further details, visit: https://mmicdata.rand.org/megametadata).\nOur research project will include two additional rounds of the JSTAR survey, the 5th round in 2015 and the 6th in 2017. When these are finished, a panel data set collected from the same subjects at regular intervals for over more than a decade will become available in a format that will render it usable by both domestic and foreign researchers.\n(2) Nihon University\u2019s National Survey on Work and Family (NSWF) is a nationwide survey conducted on the sample of around 9,000 individuals aged 20 to 59, which, along with personal information on age, family structure, occupation and income, collects data on the number of children, the ideal family size, attitudes towards work, marriage, sex, etc.\nThe survey offers valuable data on the financial support given by parents to their married children, living arrangements (co-residence with parents), the respondents\u2019 notion of the ideal family size, women\u2019s attitude to work and child rearing, reasons for having or not having children, etc.\nData collected by this survey, when incorporated into the NTA framework, will yield important insights into issues such as cost of children, women\u2019s labor force participation (i.e., women\u2019s decision making regarding the dilemma of whether to pursue a career or quit employment in order to raise children or care for their elderly parents). Furthermore, the NSWF will be replenished by highly comparable data from the National Survey on Family Planning by the Mainichi Newspapers, which was unique in that it had over five decades asked the question regarding the perceived value of providing nursing care to one\u2019s aging parents. A sizeable number of the questions in the Mainichi survey will be incorporated in the NSWF questionnaire, thus enabling us to go back as far as the 1950s in our analyses.\nThe main objective is to contribute to more effective policy making regarding population aging (specifically, pension and health systems, education, labor force participation, care for children and the elderly, etc.) This will be accomplished by collecting micro data that have been so far unavailable, by processing them in the new NTA framework and by running policy simulation exercises based on them. We shall substantially improve the NTA system by transforming it into a framework that enables policy assessment based on empirical micro data analyses in response the so-called Lucas critique, which finds macroeconometric predictions of policy effects unreliable. Indeed, the major shortcoming in the discussions of the social security system, fertility, labor participation etc. in Japan has been the inability to thoroughly introduce the microeconomic perspective. While macro indicators such as the average cost of children and elderly have been known, finer micro indicators such as the cost of children by family type, by parents\u2019 educational background, place of residence or assets held, or the cost of retirement as a function of work experience and health status have not been well known.\nHowever, for effective policy making, macro and micro analyses have to be integrated, and a useful tool for the integration is the new NTA framework incorporating extensive micro-level data collected by JSTAR and the NSWF. More specifically, our objective is to take into account the heterogeneity of the elderly population at the individual level and thus shed light on the causes of Japan\u2019s remarkably high life expectancy, late retirement and low ratio of medical expenses to GDP that have not been well understood so far. Current projections of the financial future of Japan\u2019s social security system do not adequately take this heterogeneity into account, especially as it affects incentive structures at the individual level, and this has been a major source of estimation errors.\nAnother specific objective is to further elucidate the issues of women\u2019s labor participation, career development and decision making regarding child bearing at the microeconomic level.\nAlso, by analyzing the relationship between the cost of the elderly and the cost of children, and whether the so called \u201ccrowding-out effect\u201d exists between them, we shall shed light on how limited public and private resources have been and will be allocated in the future, and thus contribute to a more efficient management of these resources through more effective policy recommendation.\nFurthermore, the consequences of population aging are diverse, stemming from the interplay between health, economic, social, psychological, biological, and environmental factors. In Japan there would be no large-scale longitudinal data sets to capture all these various aspects of life if it were not for JSTAR. One of our specific goals is, therefore, achieving a nationally representative sample both by expanding JSTAR\u2019s current geographic coverage, and by refining our calculation of sample weights for JSTAR by utilizing population census data to which we will be given access to by the Statistics Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.\nWe also aim to improve the NSWF by making it a longitudinal survey in the next two rounds, scheduled for 2016 and 2018, which will enable us to conduct further policy simulations regarding the young and middle-aged.\nThe greatest importance of our project lies in the fact that thanks to its tripartite structure, consisting of the new NTA framework expanded by detailed information from the two major surveys collecting a wealth of data on socioeconomic indicators, attitudinal variables, and health of a broad spectrum of the Japanese population, it can provide a realistic and comprehensive picture necessary for understanding both macro and micro trends in fertility, child rearing, education, health, labor force participation by the elderly and women, as well as for policy making regarding these issues. Our research especially fulfills the need for elucidating the microeconomic aspects of social security, child rearing, female and elderly labor force participation, etc., and can, thus, improve our understanding of factors affecting retirement-related behavior of the elderly, decisions on fertility and work termination by women, the demand for medical services and care-giving, etc. A thorough understanding of these factors is indispensable for effective and efficient policy planning, but, largely because of the paucity of relevant micro data, there has been little empirical research on them in Japan, and no effective policies have been formulated to this day.\nRelated to 1, our project will serve not only to refine the NTA system but also to expand it so that more reliable policy evaluations can be conducted. The system, although a highly useful methodological tool for capturing the effects of changes in the size and structure of population on society and economy, at present cannot capture gender and individual differences and is weak in terms of carrying out simulations that are important for effective policy making.\nThe US National Academy of Sciences has recently recommended that NTA-related research be linked with longitudinal demographic surveys on the elderly that offer a wealth of micro-level data, such as the US Health and Retirement Survey (HRS). JSTAR is a sister survey of the HRS, and our plans to utilize the JSTAR data for expanding the NTA will, likely, make Japan the first country among the 20 member states of the global NTA project who possess an HRS-type of survey to achieve that goal.\nFurthermore, projects intended to collect large-scale, representative data sets on middle-aged and elderly persons have commenced in a number of countries and regions, such as the US, the UK, continental Europe, Mexico, South Korea, China, and India. The JSTAR component of our proposed project is, therefore, significant in that it will help Japan, which still lacks a nationally representative survey of the elderly, close this gap.\nHidehiko Ichimura\nProfessor, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Economics\nE-mail: ichimura@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp\nAssociate Professor, Hitotsubashi University, Institute of Economic Research\nE-mail: usui@ier.hit-u.ac.jp\nTsunao Okumura\nProfessor, Yokohama National University, Graduate School of International Social Sciences\nE-mail: okumura@ynu.ac.jp\nProfessor, Tokyo University, Graduate School of Economics\nE-mail: kawaguchi@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp\nE-mail: skitao@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp\nResearch Fellow, Nakasone Yasuhiro Peace Institute, Research Department\nE-mail: sshimizutani@gmail.com\nRikiya Matsukura\nAssociate Professor, Nihon University, College of Economics\nE-mail: matsukura.rikiya@nihon-u.ac.jp\nAssociate Professor, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Economics\nProfessor, Meiji University, School of Commerce\nE-mail: tyamada@meiji.ac.jp\nE-mail: sawada@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp\nE-mail: watanabe@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp\nTatsuro Ishizaki\nTeam Leader, Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology\nProfessor, University of Tokyo, Institute of Social Sciences\nTakashi Oshio\nProfessor, Hitotsubashi University, Institute of Economic Research\nProfessor, Chiba University, Center for Preventive Medical Science\nAssociate Professor, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Medicine\nKatsumi Shimotsu\nAdjunct Associate Professor, Hitotsubashi University, Institute of Economic Research\nProfessor, University of Tokyo, Institute of Social Science\nRyo Nakajima\nAssociate Professor, Keio University, Department of Economics\nDaigo Nakata\nAssociate Professor, Faculty of Economics, Soka University\nHaruko Noguchi\nProfessor, Waseda University, School of Political Science and Economics\nProfessor, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Medicine\nProfessor, Keio University, Department of Economics\nMichal Fabinger\nLecturer, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Economics\nAndrew Griffen\nSim Seung-Gyu\nHitoshi Matsushima\nProject Researcher, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Economics\nLecturer, Tokyo University of Science, School of Management\nProject professor:\nNaohiro Ogawa\nProject Professor, University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Economics\nE-mail: ogawa-naohiro@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp\n2015 Ichimura Laboratory All Rights Reserved.",

        "raw_content": "Faith and Femininity in Disney\u2019s Tangled\nAs a father of three girls all under the age of five, I see my fair share of princess tales. To be perfectly honest, most of them don\u2019t really stick with me, a lot of it is forgettable, and a lot of it makes me wish it was forgettable. However, on a recent car trip, we played Tangled in our DVD player and, for reasons I cannot explain, I listened carefully to almost the entire film. As it turns out, I found some interesting material to consider in light of the Theology of the Body.\nIn John Paul II\u2019s Theology of the Body, he frequently makes reference to Jesus\u2019 preference to return to the beginning, when discussing marriage with the Pharisees. Throughout his analysis, the state of original man is the primary reference point for understanding what a human being is, and what marriage ought to be. In Tangled, the beginning is important as well.\nThe story opens as Rapunzel\u2019s mother the queen is falling ill in pregnancy and Gothel (Rapunzel\u2019s soon-to-be-adoptive-mother) is shown selfishly utilizing a sacred plant\u2019s healing powers to keep herself eternally young and externally beautiful. The King announces his wife\u2019s illness and immediately the citizens begin searching for the healing plant, which is then turned into an elixir and given to the queen to drink. This cures her illness and leads to Rapunzel\u2019s healthy birth. All is well, except for Gothel, who cannot face her mortality. Desperate to cling to her physical beauty, she steals Rapunzel after discovering that her hair has the healing properties of the sacred plant.\nI think there\u2019s great symbolism between Rapunzel and Gothel. Rapunzel, especially because of the miraculous nature of her birth, is a great symbol for Mary, who was preserved from original sin from the moment of her conception. She also has the power to heal others, in an indirect sense, but especially through the birth of Jesus, who would save us all. Gothel is a symbol of Eve, who selfishly uses a forbidden plant to try and preserve her life.\nAs the movie moves on to its second and third acts, I think there\u2019s another set of symbols we can read. When Flynn Rider enters the picture, the conflict between Rapunzel and Gothel comes into sharper focus. To my mind, we can read into the various relationships that emerge a sort of competing vision of the role of relationships as well as competing visions of womanhood.\nGothel: Radical Feminism\nGothel\u2019s vision of the world is that relationships are intrinsically dangerous, and only open one up to pain and suffering. The world exists as a place which threatens to abuse and wound you. The only value to be found is in a raw individualism and shutting everything out. But that\u2019s not enough. You have to appear happy, healthy, aesthetically beautiful. Youth and beauty are the face you put on to cover the pain in your heart and the fear of the world.\nFlynn Rider: What the Culture Thinks Masculinity Is\nFlynn Rider\u2019s character represents everything that Gothel was worried about. It\u2019s a sort of interesting commentary on the sexual revolution. One of the main arguments, for instance, about oral hormonal contraceptives (the Pill), was that it would make women more free and independent, that it would give them some power in the battle of the sexes. As it turns out, the Pill and the sexual revolution it enabled, has led to more oppression of women. They\u2019re, in most ways, worse off than prior to the revolution.\nI say this as a preface to Flynn\u2019s obvious reliance on his physical beauty and his wit and charm. When he initially is captured by Rapunzel, he attempts to woo her with his obviously well-rehearsed schemes. There\u2019s no doubt he\u2019s used women for pleasure before and, from the scenes we see, it seems he has rather enjoyed it. He\u2019s handsome and rugged and having a great time; a true model of the sexual revolution\u2019s image of masculinity.\nOf course, as the film goes on, we learn that his name isn\u2019t Flynn Rider after all. He\u2019s crafted an entirely different person and the \u201cmask\u201d that he wears to charm women is actually a farce. Deep beneath that facade is the true person, Eugene Fitzherbert. This real person, who we can see somehow still knows it\u2019s wrong to use others for whatever happiness and pleasure they can bring us, will only be revealed when he encounters someone radically different: Rapunzel.\nRapunzel: Catholic Femininity\nWhere Gothel wants to reject all relationships and Flynn wants to use relationships just for selfish pleasure, Rapunzel presents both of them with an alternative third way. In a sense, both Gothel and Flynn could be seen as heretics, but don\u2019t misunderstand what I mean by that.\nFrom a Catholic viewpoint, heresies always tend to over-emphasize one particular dimension of the faith, and then get led astray. They\u2019re not typically started by coming up with a crazy idea, but rather are the result of running away with one part of the truth that has been blown out of proportion.\nGothel sees the danger of the world and, especially, relationships. There\u2019s some truth there; relationships are an intrinsically risky thing. Loving someone means letting them get close enough to you in order to hurt you. The world also is a dangerous place. Things can go wrong. Dietrich von Hildebrand has a great line about this: anything truly valuable, truly great, necessarily involves great risk. You can\u2019t have anything worth having without risk and relationships are no different. But that doesn\u2019t mean we should avoid them. And, in fact, as human beings, we\u2019re made for relationships and only in loving relationships can we truly become the best version of ourselves.\nFlynn\u2019s heresy, on the other hand, is to pretend that relationships are good, but only if they are pleasurable. Anyone who\u2019s ever lived long enough has realized that relationships are nice when they\u2019re pleasurable and fun and easy, but that those qualities aren\u2019t the only things you need for a relationship. You also need truth, you need commitment, and above all, you need sacrifice to work through the hard times. If we abandon ship at the first sign of difficulty, that\u2019s not a relationship, it\u2019s a contract.\nRapunzel shows Gothel and Flynn that, in fact, relationships are good (contra Gothel), but that they\u2019re about more than pleasure (contra Flynn). This is worked out slowly throughout the film, but is seen most clearly by the climax, where we see Rapunzel and Flynn both willing to sacrifice themselves for one another. Rapunzel offers to stay with her mother if she will spare Flynn. But Flynn cuts off her hair so that Rapunzel won\u2019t be stuck with her mother for the rest of her life. What\u2019s really cool about it, though, is that we discover Rapunzel has another way of healing: through her tears. This, to me, was the most powerful scene which shows Rapunzel as a symbol of Mary, who shows that womanhood heals the world in times of joy, as well as in times of sorrow.\nMore could be said, but I\u2019ll close with an excerpt from John Paul II\u2019s Mulieris Dignitatem. I think Tangled can serve as a powerful way of illuminating some of the truths of this great Saint about the relationships between men and women. Take a look:\nAlthough both of them together are parents of their child, the woman\u2019s motherhood constitutes a special \u201cpart\u201d in this shared parenthood, and the most demanding part. Parenthood \u2013 even though it belongs to both \u2013 is realized much more fully in the woman, especially in the prenatal period. It is the woman who \u201cpays\u201d directly for this shared generation, which literally absorbs the energies of her body and soul. It is therefore necessary that the man be fully aware that in their shared parenthood he owes a special debt to the woman. No programme of \u201cequal rights\u201d between women and men is valid unless it takes this fact fully into account. (MD #18, Sec. 5)\n4 thoughts on \u201cFaith and Femininity in Disney\u2019s Tangled\u201d\nYes, yes, yes! Tangled has been my favorite princess movie for all these reasons, and more. I remember watching it in theaters when it premiered and being floored by it\u2019s similarities, or revelations of the truth, of TotB. The line at the end that Flynn says, \u201cShe was a princess worth waiting for\u201d- it\u2019s meant, I think to be a throw away line, meant to refer to how much more complete the kingdom was with her in her rightful place, how much better he was because of her; but I think it has even deeper meaning. This kingdom that laid in wait of this lost princess, who already knew her value and worth, and waited with bated breath and an unshakable hope for her return, knew that it was her who could bring the truth and fullness of love to them (akin to Mary bringing Truth and Love to the world, Jesus) and would accept no substitutes. I think it\u2019s also telling that Rapunzel is barefoot throughout the movie- symbolic of her position as servant of others, just as Mary, although Co-Redemptrix, etc., is first the servant of Love.\n\u2026I think you\u2019re overly harsh on Eugene. He\u2019s both the comedy relief AND the \u2018transformation\u2019 character in the movie. \u2026He\u2019s Tony Stark. While Rapunzel\u2019s story line is one of growth, discovery, and triumph over evil, Eugene\u2019s is about transformation, true love, and self-sacrifice for greater good of another : )\nJanuary 21, AD 2016 at 9:41am\nRepeat to yourself three times: \u201cIt\u2019s just a film.\u201d If you get more out of it than that, so much the better. If all you get is entertainment, well then, that\u2019s why you bought the ticket.\nHi! Thanks for commenting. I certainly agree that we shouldn\u2019t place too much concern on the symbolic meanings of every single thing we encounter. But I also think \u201cIt\u2019s just a film\u201d goes a bit too far. The amount of discussion and decisions that are made about every element of every film I think speak to the fact that, by its very nature, any story carries with it a deeper meaning. What I would not disagree with at all is the notion that a given story can be subject to multiple readings and symbolic interpretations. Thanks again for commenting!",

        "title": "President Martelly Installs New Government in Haiti",
        "raw_content": "President Martelly Installs New Government in Haiti\nThis article details the latest developments in Haiti\u2019s political crisis, which include President Martelly\u2019s appointment of a new Prime Minister and 36 other ministers and members of government. Martelly finally claimed responsibility for the current crisis and promised credible elections but many aren\u2019t so sure: Opponents promise continued protests demanding Martelly\u2019s resignation. Haiti experts blame the international community\u2019s unwavering support of Martelly for letting the crisis get so bad. So far, it seems Martelly will have it in his corner indefinitely.\nMartelly assumes responsibility for crisis as Haiti gets new government\nWith foreign diplomats looking on, an uneasy Haitian President Michel Martelly looked into the television cameras and in a solemn address to the nation, affirmed his support for credible and fair elections even as he assumed \u201cresponsibility\u201d for the political stalemate that has plunged Haiti deeper into turmoil.\nIt was an about face for a man who, until that TV address on Friday, blamed Haiti\u2019s fractured opposition for a brewing political crisis that resulted with last week\u2019s dissolution of parliament.\n\u201cSome 28 years after the adoption of the Constitution in March 1987, we still struggle to put in place all the institutions that our fundamental Charter had planned,\u201d Martelly acknowledged. \u201cToday 44 months after my installation\u2026 we must humbly admit our weaknesses and our collective mistakes, arising from old demons of mistrust, divisions and intolerance that still cross our minds after more than 200 years.\u201d\nFor the second time this century, a Haitian president is ruling without a functioning parliament, meaning in essence Haiti has one-man rule. The next few days and weeks will be critical in determining whether Haiti \u2014 and Martelly, who beginning Friday will host a three-day visit by the U.N. Security Council \u2014 can properly manage a political tinderbox.\nWill his address to the nation translate into a real process of inclusion, and set the path toward legitimate elections later this year?\nObservers say he must for Haiti\u2019s sake.\n\u201cIt\u2019s the first time a sitting Haitian President has done what you usually see leaders of the modern world do: When something bad happens, say \u2018the ultimate responsibility is with the president,\u2019\u201d said Reginald Boulos, the Haitian businessman who headed the 11-member presidential commission Martelly appointed in November to help him find a way out of the turmoil. \u201cBut the speech is the first step. It cannot be the last.\u201d\nWith elections delayed for more than three years, Haiti today has no elected mayors, no elected community representatives. The terms of a second-tier of the 30-member Senate has expired, leaving only 10 Senators. The entire 99-member Chamber of Deputies also left before it could approve the new prime minister or government.\nThere is no head of the Supreme Court, and the terms of the Governor of the Central Bank and several board members have ended while the term of the Chief of Police will be over in a few months. All require parliament\u2019s blessings.\nThe institutional void has Martelly\u2019s opponents stepping up calls for his resignation, with one leader, attorney Andre Michel, saying that while they are not advocating violence with renewed street demonstrations, \u201cwhen there is no parliament, anything can happen.\u201d\n\u201cHaiti will know dark days without a working Parliament, without a constitutional government, without an electoral board and a lame judicial guardianship that is at the behest of the executive,\u201d former Senate President Simon Desras said. \u201cMany people are in the streets almost daily to demand the resignation of the President. It is a defacto reign that unfortunately, is being unconditionally supported by the international community.\u201d\nMoments after his Friday speech, Martelly installed longtime opposition leader and former Port-au-Prince Mayor Evans Paul as prime minister. On Monday, less than 24 hours after their names were released as promised, the 36 men and women tapped to form what is supposed to be consensus government were sworn in at the National Palace.\nWith Martelly keeping nearly all of the key ministries, some are questioning the cabinet, saying it doesn\u2019t reflect his speech, in which he said he wanted \u201cto ensure that the composition of the next government and its management\u2026fully reflect this desire for reconciliation with the opposition.\u201d\nThough opposition groups got some ministries, nine of the 20 ministers in the new government had previously served under ousted Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe. Among the more controversial appointments, which was nixed after pressure from the international community: the swearing-in of a former police officer, Carel Alexandre, as the Secretary of State for Public Security.\nAll face a tough task \u2014 from creating the confidence needed for long-overdue legislative and local elections, and the presidential balloting, due this year, to governing amid tough economic times.\nFive years after Haiti\u2019s devastating Jan. 12, 2010 earthquake, which saw millions of dollars in foreign debt forgiven, Haiti is once again in deep debt. Its main source for post-quake rebuilding and Martelly\u2019s social programs, the discounted-Venezuela Petrocaribe oil program, is being depleted with the drop in global oil prices and Venezuela\u2019s own tough economic times. Instead of achieving its projected 4.8 percent growth at the end of 2014, Haiti achieved 2.8 percent.\nThree protests a week, make it impossible for [the Haiti tax office] and Customs to collect revenues,\u201d outgoing Finance Minister Marie Carmelle Jean-Marie said, while noting that a drop in consumption is also gravely impacting government coffers as customs revenues take a dive.\nFor his part, Martelly will have to convince Haitians and the international community that he\u2019s not only a defender of democracy but that he\u2019s committed to doing what he hasn\u2019t done in the four years since he became president: hold elections and work with the opposition.\nSome, like Boulos, are willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Others, like Senator Steven Benoit, are not.\n\u201cAfter he came into power, he told all of us in a meeting, \u2018I don\u2019t like parliament, I am going to destroy parliament,\u2019 \u201d said Benoit, a longtime friend-turned political adversary and one of the 10 remaining lawmakers. \u201cThat was the dream, and he has kept his word.\u201d\nSenator Steven Benoit isn\u2019t convinced the President has changed.\n\u201cThe Americans think they can control Martelly,\u201d said Benoit, whose bitter exchange with the president during a meeting last week made headlines here. \u201cNobody can control Martelly. He\u2019s a trickster. Martelly is playing everybody including his bosses, the Americans.\u201d\nMartelly\u2019s speech came hours after he spoke to Vice President Joe Biden via telephone. The U.S. had hoped a last-minute deal brokered between Martelly and several opposition political parties would have allowed for lawmakers\u2019 terms to be extended for up to four months, and an electoral law to be passed. But parliament dissolved before either measures could be voted after pro and anti-Martelly senators failed to show up to provide the necessary 16 member quorum.\nBiden commended Martelly\u2019s \u201cefforts to reach a negotiated agreement,\u201d while recognizing that he had \u201cmade several important concessions in order to reach consensus, and expressed disappointment that Haiti\u2019s Parliament did not pass an electoral law before lapsing on January 12,\u201d said the statement from the White House.\nHours before the signing of the deal, the U.S. Embassy issued a press release stating U.S. support for Martelly should he have to rule by decree. Many believed that statement, and later U.S. Ambassador Pamela White\u2019s appearance in the parliament chambers on the night of the aborted vote, were deal changers that helped encourage senators not to show up. Both were widely condemned as un-welcomed interference in Haitian domestic politics.\nEven so, the international community has a critical role to play, say Haiti experts.\n\u201cWith the dissolution of Haiti\u2019s parliament creating an absence of national \u2014 that is, Haitian \u2014 checks and balances in political process, international actors shoulder the responsibility of trying to ensure that democratic process is not stymied by strong-man rule,\u201d said Robert Maguire, a Haiti specialist at George Washington University.\n\u201cThey also must take the lead in assuring that the country\u2019s overdue parliamentary and municipal elections, as well as the presidential election required before year\u2019s end, are organized on a level playing field and are inclusive of all Haitian political parties and organizations wishing to participate in them.\u201d\nThe U.S., however, is in a particularly fragile position, he said.\n\u201cAssuming an un-biased and balanced approach in support of Haiti\u2019s electoral process may be particularly difficult for the United States, given its track record of strong, unwavering, and seemingly uncritical support of President Martelly,\u201d Maguire said.\nRobert Fatton, a University of Virginia political science professor and Haiti expert, said despite the ongoing domestic criticism of Martelly, he appears to be in good shape. He\u2019s saying the right things and has the support of the international community, from the U.S. to Brazil.\nIf the electoral council is soon named and elections are scheduled some time soon, Fatton said, \u201cwe may be entering a new phase in Haitian politics.\u201d\n\u201cIf things go slowly and [Paul] is incapable of establishing his authority and independence, things could easily fall apart,\u201d he said.\nLike the U.S., the Security Council also will publicly reiterate its support for Martelly while urging \u201cthe radical\u201d opposition to stop its politics of resignation demands.\n\u201cPrivately, the UN Security will tell Martelly that he has no other alternative but to do what he said in his speech installing Evans Paul as Prime Minister,\u201d Fatton said.\nAs for the opposition and their stepped up anti-government demonstrations, Fatton said, if the various groups \u201ccannot put large numbers in the streets, then Martelly will have outflanked them and these groups will have to compromise and join the other so-called moderate parties and accept that Martelly will not be resigning.\n\u201cSo at the moment Martelly is winning the chess game, but the positions are not totally aligned for him to claim checkmate,\u201d he added.",

        "raw_content": "UN Whistleblowers Face Repercussions for Speaking Out\nUN whistleblowers, who speak out about injustices occurring in the organization or under its auspices, too often face repercussions for taking a stand against their employer. Because of the UN\u2019s vast legal immunities, staff must file complaints through a lengthy, expensive, and often biased internal process. This structure for UN staff members follows the similar appeals mechanism for the Haitian cholera victims and sexual assault survivors seeking redress from the UN. Despite the UN\u2019s stated commitments to human rights and justice, whistleblowers and victims often refrain from speaking out for fear of backlash, as highlighted in the following article.\nHow The UN Fails Whistleblowers \u2013 OpEd\nDavid Kaye, eurasiareview\nThis is a letter from the UN Whistleblower Coalition to the UN Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Opinion and Expression, David Kaye, who will be presenting a report on protection of sources and whistleblowers to the UN General Assembly in October.\nOver the past decade the United Nations and its specialized agencies have established new whistleblower policies. Unfortunately, implementation is weak in many of the UN agencies and the policies themselves may lag behind best practice standards. In practice, it is our experience that the policies afford little meaningful protection for whistleblowers.\nAs the case summaries below demonstrate, retaliation against whistleblowers can affect the entire UN system. Some UN whistleblowers have been fired or demoted; others have been subjected to more subtle forms of abuse like non-renewal of contracts or sudden transfer to distant duty stations; many face plain, simple harassment and intimidation. UN whistleblowers may also have their visas revoked or be required to flee the country where they are living and working as a result of the retaliation. Consequently, we can assert that fear of reporting wrongdoing is common.",

        "title": "Audio Description for 360\u00b0 video content \u2013 ImAc delivers novel resources for the broadcasting industry to provide adapted content ensuring accessibility in immersive environments",
        "raw_content": "Home/NEWS 2019 Audio Description for 360\u00b0 video content\nThe integration of immersive audio including Audio Description (AD) in 360\u00b0 video content is a relevant step to enable low-sighted and blind people to enjoy the full experience. To achieve this goal, new ways of producing and delivering the audio content need to be tested and developed. Furthermore, it is key for a good end user experience to know what these users expect from 360\u00b0 AD. Therefore, focus group tests were conducted to include their wishes in the development. Also, a previous ImAc post introduces some of the questions that arise for an Audio Description service in a 360\u00b0 media environment (http://www.imac-project.eu/2017/12/04/immersive-accessibility-introducing-a-narrator-2/).\nThis article describes technical aspects for producing, delivering and consuming a \u201c3D audio scene\u201d including Audio Description (AD), based on these first deliberations and on the user requirements known so far.\nCreating an immersive audio experience for 360\u00b0 video content\nOne result of the ImAc focus group tests was that a major contribution to the user experience for the target group will come from an appropriate main audio mix rather than the AD service itself. Thus, not only the AD service is important, also the quality of the audio in general as well as the playback system will have a major impact on the immersive (audio) experience.\nWith that finding in mind we will look at the next generation audio (NGA) technologies and show where AD production can take advantage of them.\nFrom a technical point of view, Audio Description can be seen as an additional audio asset and as such be handled similar to other audio sources. The following sections will outline advantages and disadvantages of different technical approaches.\nObject based audio \u2013 A representation of the real world\nObject-based audio (OBA) is a revolutionary approach for creating and deploying interactive, personalized, scalable and immersive audio content.\nAn object-based production approach is able to overcome obstacles which are entailed in a standard channel-based audio production workflow. The term \u2018object-based media\u2019 has become commonly used to describe the representation of media content by a set of individual assets, together with metadata describing their relationships and associations. At the point of consumption these objects are assembled to create an overall user experience. The precise combination of objects can be flexible and responsive to user preferences, as well as environmental and platform specific factors.\nThe goal of OBA is to capture the creative intent of the producer and to carry as much information as possible from the production side to the end-user, thus ensuring the best reproduction possible on the consumer side. To achieve this, the produced audio scene is composed of several objects. The metadata associated with each object includes, but is not limited to, the target position of the audio signal, its target loudness and a description of its actual content.\nFurther information about object-based audio production can be read and heard here: https://lab.irt.de/demos/object-based-audio/\nSummarizing, an OBA production can achieve the optimal experience for the end user: on a fitting playback device the resulting sound can come close to reality and offer the most immersive sound.\nFormats and delivery\nToday, an end to end OBA workflow cannot be provided at large scale. For one, OBA is very costly to produce. But more important, it cannot be brought to end user devices, because standards evolve only now and still lack a wider support. Existing OBA implementations are mostly demos, prototypes or other proprietary solutions.\nIn ImAc, it has been considered to deliver OBA up to the end user device (ImAc player). This would allow for high flexibility regarding the audio scene as well as the playback system, because the audio would be rendered on the end user device. However, relatively high processing power is needed to perform the client-side rendering. This is one of the reasons why the ImAc project investigates possibilities using different audio streams each fitted for a specific playback system. For example, this can be binaural audio, Ambisonics or 5.1.\nOn the production side however, OBA should preferably be used: from an object-based produced audio scene, any audio output format can be generated on demand, while always providing the best possible quality for the dedicated target playback system. The number and kind of formats that are generated depend on what playout channels are fed and can easily be extended if future delivery formats demand it.\nStereo and 5.1 productions can be represented by OBA as well, such that the same workflow can be obtained for any production. For instance, a stereo production would be imported into an audio scene by adding two audio objects \u2013 one for each channel. These objects are placed at the location where the loudspeakers would stand in a typical stereo setup. The same approach can be used for 5.1 or any other channel based production. That way, all typical State of the Art production formats can be supported in ImAc. This is relevant, since OBA productions are still rare.\nThe impact of the playback system\nThe immersive experience of the end user is not only influenced by the audio format itself, but also by the playback system. The way that the audio scene should be represented to the user, depends on the playback environment that is used. Basically, there are two different kinds of playback devices, that will be called \u201cfixed\u201d and \u201cnon-fixed\u201d, in the following.\nA fixed playback device is not rotating or moving. To change the user\u2019s viewing direction, another part of the video needs to be moved into the field of view (FOV). One could say that the video rotates around the user. The user doesn\u2019t rotate but always looks in the same direction. Navigation is often done by mouse, arrow keys or swiping on a touch display.\nWith a non-fixed playback device the user needs to look around (move his head) in order to change the FOV. One could say, that the video does not rotate around the user, but the user will turn to watch different areas of the 360\u00b0 scene. This is the case for head mounted display devices.\nIt is assumed that the represented audio scene should align with the video for the best immersive experience. As a result, the kind of playback used defines in what way the audio scene must rotate around the user. Theoretically, both Loudspeaker setups or headphones can be used as playback devices, but the rendering process has to be dedicated to the actual system. This is simply because headphones move together with head movements, loudspeakers don\u2019t. Accordingly, the rendering has to be adapted when a predictable and accurate representation of the audio scene is the target.\nWhen using headphones, and when the type of playback device is \u201cnon-fixed\u201d (as described above), the head movement and position is relevant for creating the audio scene. Simulating a room via headphones is a relatively common thing to do, but to realize a static (non-rotating) audio scene via a \u201crotating playback device\u201d (headphones) cannot be done with standard consumer headphones. First, the viewing direction of the listener must be tracked and second, the audio signal must be rendered for this exact direction.\nThis example shows, that there are some challenges for audio delivery. At the end, audio must be prepared and delivered in a way that all user devices can play audio with an acceptable (spatial) immersion.\nAs stated above, AD tracks can be understood as an additional audio object \u2013 and that is exactly how we treat it in ImAc. Adding AD as a separate object to the scene, allows to vary parameters like volume or position of the AD speaker. You would like to hear the AD speaker as if he was sitting next to you? No problem. A few promising options were selected for testing, for example one where the speaker comes from the direction where the action is, as well as the traditional \u201comni-present\u201d AD.\nThe different variations selected by the producer will be pre-rendered and delivered to the player. In the ImAc player, the user can choose his or her preferred AD representation. At the current stage, an ideal listening environment can only be implemented as a lab-demonstration, but users can already benefit from the advantages an OBA production just using their headphones.\nPrevious Previous post: Audio description in 3D audio\nNext Next post: TED Conferences LLC",

        "raw_content": "new year, new direction.\nHello. How are you? Does someone sing Adele's latest song every single time you say hello? Superman does. Like really. He calls me from work and somehow manages to get \"Hello from the other siiiiiiiiiiide.\" stuck in my head at least once a week. At least. But it's cute, plus Adele's voice is fantastico. But wait, where was I?\nOh yes, hello. Happy New Year! I'm very very excited for 2016. So excited that I felt like I needed to type V-E-R-Y twice and put the second one in italics. Now are you comprehending my excitement?? This will most likely be one our craziest years to date but pshh, we are so ready for it!\nSo if you hadn't heard already, we're having identical twins this year. And if you didn't catch from my insta-feed, we found out they're girls. And in case you couldn't hear the crying from your house, Ezra wasn't pleased. But he's coping quite well and all of us are excited.\nBut that brings me to my point. Twins = a whole new level of crazy. And because I have had a few health challenges, I am not on my game quite as much as I'd like to be. It's been humbling to say the least. Over the last 6 months, I've really had to cut back and evaluate what's important. Like absolutely necessary for me to spend my time doing. This new perspective has happened, in part, because of some wise words I read a few months ago from this talk.\nThose words hit me like a ton-o-bricks and I knew I needed to make some changes. Because right now, let's face it, I can barely get dinner on the table. I've always been a jack of all trades, master of none type of a gal. It's why I've never really excelled at anything in particular. This blog, sewing, cooking, keeping my house clean ;) I've just never been at the top of the class. But if there's one thing I'd like to really be good at, it's creating a happy home. I firmly believe I can still do that in the chaos of raising 6 kids under 6, but I know I cannot do it if I don't focus on what matters most.\nSo here on the blog, I'll be posting sporadically. This blog is not a business for me, it's an outlet and I feel the need to share. For the next year, I'll be documenting life in the twin-hood, home improvement projects, and any tiny little bit of sewing that I manage to eek out. It doesn't make me feel sad to be cutting back, but I am sorry if you come here solely for sewing purposes or to advertise. I just can't focus on that now. I like to share what comes naturally and makes me happy so c'est la vie.

There must be a few locals still around who remember him.\nMichael O'Flanagan 10/07/2009 T.C. Murray Thomas Cornelius Murray was born on 17th January 1873 in Macroom, Co. Cork. He was educated at St. Patrick\u2019s teachers training college in Drumcondra graduating in 1891. He became a national school teacher and taught at several schools in Cork. He was encouraged by Daniel Corkery to write plays, submitting The Wheel of Fortune to the Cork Drama Society\u2019s Little Theatre (An D\u00fan) in 1909. He was greatly affected by bitter experience with clerical school management at Rathduff, Co. Cork and this influenced his writings. He contributed articles to New Ireland Review, Dublin Magazine and The Bell. He was appointed head teacher of The Model School in Inchicore in 1915 remaining there until his to retirement in 1932. His plays which were performed at the Abbey were Birthright in 1910 and Maurice Harte which premiered at the Abbey in 1912 and was produced at the Royal Court, London during the Abbey tour of that year. His play Sovereign Love was produced in 1913 and The Serf which was produced in the Abbey in 1920 was based on his experience with clerical school management. Other plays by Murray included The Briery Gap 1922 and Autumn Fire 1924. He was director of Authors\u2019 Guild and President of the Irish Playwrights\u2019 Association., and Vice-President Irish Academy of Letters in 1949. He died on 7th March 1959 in Dublin.

He\u2019s had difficulties for years, but after his lengthy meltdown on Facebook last year, it was evident that he was in trouble. BixJournals reported when Stapp lost custody of his children and was admitted for a psychiatric evaluation after his wife, Jaclyn Stapp, filed the petition to put him on a psych hold.\nIn his interviews with People and ABC News, Stapp explained how using drugs and alcohol led to his downfall and caused the psychiatric break. He also found out that he suffers from bipolar disorder and is taking medication to help control the manic-depressive moods.\nScott Stapp was one of the original members of the rock band, Creed, which was formed in 1993. Their first album was released in 1997 and sold over six million copies. The group broke up in 2004 but had a brief reunion in 2009. After they disbanded, Stapp began his solo singing career and has released two albums.",

        "raw_content": "Home > HEALTH > Health News > AI to detect foetal heart problems\nJapanese scientists develop a novel system that can automatically detect abnormalities in foetal hearts in real-time using artificial intelligence (AI). This technology could help examiners to avoid missing severe and complex congenital heart abnormalities that require prompt treatments, leading to early diagnosis and well-planned treatment plans, and could contribute to the development of perinatal or neonatal medicine.\nTokyo (ISJ) - Japanese scientists have developed a novel system that can automatically detect abnormalities in foetal hearts in real-time using artificial intelligence (AI).\nResearchers at RIKEN Centre for Advanced Intelligence Project (AIP) have developed a technology that could help examiners to avoid missing severe and complex congenital heart abnormalities which require prompt treatments, leading to early diagnosis and well-planned treatment plans, and could contribute to the development of perinatal or neonatal medicine.\nThey prepared a set of \"teacher\" data \u2014 meaning data from which the AI is to learn \u2014 through \"annotation\" \u2014 the attachment of meanings of objects \u2014 and used to train the object detection system.\nThe researchers used normal heart images to annotate correct positions of 18 different parts of the heart and peripheral organs, and developed a novel \"Foetal Heart Screening System,\" which allows the automatic detection of heart abnormalities from ultrasound images. When there are differences between the test and learned data, the system judges that there is an abnormality if the difference is greater than some confidence value. The process is quick and can be performed in real-time, with the results appearing immediately on the examination screen. The system can also help harmonize diagnoses among different hospitals with different levels of medical expertise or equipment.\n\"This breakthrough was possible thanks to the accumulated discussions among the experts on machine learning and foetal heart diagnosis. RIKEN AIP has many AI experts and opportunities for collaboration like this project. We hope that the system will go into wide-spread use by means of the successful cooperation among clinicians, academia, and the company,\" says Masaaki Komatsu, a RIKEN AIP researcher who led the project.\nCongenital heart problems \u2014 which can involve abnormalities of the atrium, ventricle, valves or blood vessel connections \u2014 can be very serious, and account for about 20% of all new-born deaths. Diagnosis of such problems before the baby is born, allowing for prompt treatment within a week after birth, is known to markedly improve the prognosis, so there have been many attempts to develop technology to enables accurate and rapid diagnosis. However, today, foetal diagnosis depends heavily on observations by experienced examiners using ultrasound imaging, so it is unfortunately not uncommon for children to be born without having been properly diagnosed.\nIn recent years, machine learning techniques such as deep learning have been developing rapidly, and there is great interest in the adoption of machine learning for medical applications. Machine learning can allow diagnostic systems to detect diseases more rapidly and accurately than human beings, but this requires the availability of adequate datasets on normal and abnormal subjects for a certain disease.\nSince congenital heart problems in children are relatively rare, there are no complete datasets, and up until now, prediction based on machine learning was not accurate enough for practical use in the clinic. A RIKEN AIP-led group decided to take on this challenge, and has successfully developed new machine learning technology that can accurately predict diseases using relatively small and incomplete datasets.\nIn general, experts of foetal heart diagnosis seek to find whether certain parts of the heart, such as valves and blood vessels, are in incorrect positions, by comparing normal and abnormal foetal heart images based on their own judgement. The researchers found that this process is similar to the \"object detection\" technique, which allows AIs to distinguish the position and classify multiple objects appearing in images.\nThe researchers now plan to carry out clinical trials at university hospitals in Japan, adding larger number of foetal ultrasound images to allow the AI to learn more in order to improve the screening accuracy and expand its target. Implementing this system could help correct medical disparities between regions through the training of examiners or by remote diagnosis using cloud-based systems.\nIllustration: Heart - for representative purpose only\nTags :Heart , Congenital Heart Disease , Artificial Intelligence , AI , Machine Learning , Foetal Heart Screening System , RIKEN",

Today that dream seems remote. This is tragic.\u201d\nSamaria Regional Council chief Yossi Dagan slammed the pro-Israel lobby group over its explicit endorsement of Palestinian statehood, saying the group was out of sync with both Israeli and US policy.\n\u201cWe\u2026 note that the AIPAC talking points are still very much tied to establishment of a Palestinian state, what has been called \u2018the two-state solution\u2019,\u201d said Dagan.\nDagan accused AIPAC of misrepresenting Israel\u2019s position, noting that the current government has not endorsed Palestinian statehood.\n\u201cThe AIPAC website also seems to imply that Israel is committed to a two-state solution and that the United States takes this position as well.\u201d\n\u201cThis assumption has no basis in fact,\u201d continued Dagan. \u201cThe sovereign entity in Israel is of course the Government of Israel. The official GOI Guidelines are available to the public. As you see, they contain not one word or even hint of support for the \u2018two-state solution\u2019.\u201d\nThe Samaria Regional Council chief also noted that the Trump administration had dropped reference to Palestinian statehood or the two-state solution in its latest National Security Strategy report.\n\u201cAs for the United States, while the previous National Security Strategy report did state that the United States remains \u2018committed to \u2026 a two-state solution\u2019,\u201d said Dagan, \u201cthe National Security Strategy currently in effect, as of December 2017, does not indicate support for the two-state outcome. This is presumably in an effort not to coerce an American ally, the State of Israel, into an outcome which that ally does not regard as desirable, just or safe.\u201d\n\u201cI am astounded as to why such a great, meaningful organization as AIPAC, whose raison d'etre is pro-Israel advocacy in the United States, would represent the positions of the State of Israel (and of the United States) so inaccurately before senior government officials, senators and congressmen, and the general pro-Israel public. The position that AIPAC is representing as that of the State of Israel -- in the AIPAC mission statement and in the AIPAC talking points inter alia -- not only fails to represent Israel properly, it is detrimental to the efforts to achieve dialogue in the Middle East.\u201d\nTags:AIPAC, PA Arabs, Washington DC, Yossi Dagan, Palestinian statehood, AIPAC 2018",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Channel News \u00bb IBM to Acquire Emptoris, a Supplier of Cloud-based Analytics for Procurement and Sourcing\nIBM Corp. said that it will acquire Emptoris Inc., a privately-held Burlington, MA-based provider of cloud-based and on-premise analytics software for procurement and supply chain management, in a move the vendor said fills out its Smarter Commerce platform.\nTerms of the transaction were not disclosed. The companies said that they expect the deal, upon satisfactory regulatory review, to close in the first quarter 2012.\nEmptoris sells a suite of sourcing, contract management, spend analysis, supplier lifecycle management, services procurement and telecom expense management solutions to enterprise-level businesses. Its 350 clients include technology giant Samsung America Inc., American Express, Boeing, Delta, Heinz, Kraft and United Healthcare.\nIBM said that the acquisition broadens its Smarter Commerce offering because it enables the vendor to meet the sourcing needs of chief procurement officers in addition to other C-level executives.\n\u201cAdding Emptoris strengthens the comprehensive capabilities we deliver and enables IBM to meet the specific needs of chief procurement officers,\" said Craig Hayman, IBM general manager, Industry Solutions.\nPatrick Quirk, Emptoris chief executive, said that the vendor\u2019s products help customers to improve sourcing and control spending.\n\"Procurement officers need to manage the full engagement, integrating suppliers with key internal systems and have the capability and visibility to manage compliance and mitigate supply risk,\u201d he said. \u201cThat is the value we bring to the procurement organization.\"\nThe deal comes on the heels of IBM\u2019s $440 million offer for DemandTec Inc., a publicly-held San Mateo, CA-based maker of cloud-based analytics software that examines and assesses customer buying trends, and follows earlier purchases of Coremetrics, Sterling Commerce and Unica.\nIBM officials said that, in particular, the Emptoris\u2019 spend management solutions map to Sterling\u2019s business-to-business integration and supply chain management solutions. IBM also said that the acquisition supplements its supply chain management and business process outsourcing operation housed in its Global Process Services organization.\nIBM launched its Smarter Commerce platform in March, 2011. The vendor pegs the market opportunity for associated software at some $20 billion.\nEmptoris, which was founded in 1999, employs some 725 people worldwide.\nTAGS: cloud computing,supply chain management,analytics,procurement,IBM ,smarter commerce,sourcing,Emptoris",

        "title": "oil spill update",
        "raw_content": "SEA OF JAPAN OIL SPILL UPDATE\nWinter in the Sea of Japan is always severe, but this year the consequences have been especially heavy. Three months have passed since the Russian oil tanker Nakhodka, on its way to Russia from China, sank during a storm on January 2, 110 kilometers northeast of the Oki Islands. Due to causes still under investigation, the Nakhodka broke into two pieces, spilling 5000 kiloliters (4500 tons) of oil. The two halves of the ship, both leaking, went their separate ways: the bow toward the coast of Fukui Prefecture, and the main hull to the sea bottom. Oil has washed onto the shores of ten prefectures, from Shimane in the south to Akita in the north, with Fukui and Ishikawa the hardest-hit.\nOil-collecting ships contended with rough seas for weeks on end and gathered only about 625 kiloliters of oil. On February 24, with few oil slicks remaining, the Maritime Safety Agency (MSA) stopped cleanup operations in the Sea of Japan. Meanwhile, about 200,000 people, most using shovels and sieves, have volunteered for the tedious work of beach cleanup. Organizers want to make a final push before spring, when the oil will start to melt into sand and rock crevices. Damage to the marine and coastal environments is great, but will take more time to assess.\nFor five days, the Nakhodka's bow drifted toward the coast of Fukui Prefecture, where it struck a reef 200 meters offshore at Mikuni. With oil tanks leaking, the MSA began extracting oil from the bow, and did not finish until late February, 41 days later. On most days, no work was done at all because of seas up to six meters high. In all, 2830 kiloliters were pumped out. Over the next few months, salvage companies will try to raise the bow off the reef.\nSuch an operation, however, will be nearly impossible with the main section of the Nakhodka, which sank about 140 kilometers northeast of the Oki Islands. The hull, still holding an estimated 11,000 kiloliters of oil, is now resting 2500 meters down on the sea floor. A deep-sea probe has noted oil leaking from a deck hatch, but the extreme pressure should prevent rapid leaking. That same pressure, though, will probably rule out lifting the hull to the surface, and other salvage options are equally difficult: one idea is to extract the oil and leave the wrecked ship at the sea bottom; another is to seal the ship with sand and cement.\nFive cleanup volunteers have died, all of heart failure soon after finishing work. Even though four had specifically purchased volunteer insurance, their deaths will probably not be covered because they died from illness, rather than sudden, accidental injury. The Japanese government, however, will award one million yen to their families. Many volunteers have suffered from sore throats and skin and eye irritations due to the oil, as well as backaches.\nThe body of the Nakhodka's captain, Valery Melnikov, was discovered on a Fukui beach on January 26. According to crew interviews, he stayed on the tanker after making sure all 31 crew members (subsequently rescued by the MSA) had boarded lifeboats.\nThe Japanese and Russian governments continue to quarrel over the cause of the accident. A Russian accident report claims the Nakhodka sank after a collision with a floating or submerged object; Japanese experts say cracks in the wreck are not consistent with a collision. Japan believes it is more likely that the 26-year old tanker broke under powerful waves. During the storm, weather stations recorded winds of 180 kilometers per hour and waves nearly eight meters high. One crewman said that a large wave split the tanker's deck, and the following wave broke the ship apart. The MSA also believes uneven loading may have caused a weakness in the tanker body. According to a March 22 report, Transport Ministry investigators examining the Nakhodka's bow have found the hull had lost over 20 percent of its thickness because of corrosion.\nBoth countries have promised to continue their investigations and share information. The ship's owner, Prisco Traffic, has an interest in a verdict of accident by collision. If the ship is judged to have been sound and there is no human error, the ship's insurance company will have to pay damages, and the International Oil Pollution Compensation Fund will contribute, up to a ceiling of 22.5 billion yen ($187 million). According to a Fund lawyer, two years may be needed to settle the issue, but the Fund has just paid about one billion yen as a stopgap measure.\nCleanup operations so far have cost 9 billion yen ($75 million), and damage to the fishing industry is estimated at 7 billion yen. Other damages in the seven worst-hit prefectures exceed 1.5 billion yen. Prefectures and towns have received over one billion yen ($8 million) in donations, but have not decided how to make best use of the money.\nEditorial boards and citizens from around the country have criticized the national government for its slow and confused response, and for leaving matters up to prefectural and municipal governments. It took two days for the MSA to request an oil recovery ship from the Transport Ministry, and four days to ask for help from the Maritime Self-Defense Force. The Maritime Disaster Prevention Center was not approached until January 14, 12 days after the Nakhodka sank.\nThe 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster, which spilled 41,000 kiloliters (eight times the Nakhodka) in Alaska, was the catalyst for forming quick response systems in the U.S., the U.K., and Norway. But the Japanese government has admitted it did not have cohesive plans for dealing with the spill, and lacked oil-salvage ships (with none stationed in the Sea of Japan) and effective oil-neutralizing chemicals. Oil recovery scenarios did not take into account the Japan Sea's roughness in winter, which can render recovery vessels useless. Even existing ships are not suitable for dealing with C grade oil, the most viscous kind, which the Nakhodka spilled. Sixteen percent of the world's oil shipments pass through Japanese waters.\nThe final frustration is that the Nakhodka just missed the requirement to have a double-layered hull. Since tougher laws were passed after the Exxon Valdez spill, ships over 25 years old and 20,000 tons must have a double hull. The Nakhodka is 19,986 tons. According to the Japan Maritime Research Institute, there are 1195 ocean tankers in the world more than 20 years old; just 14 have double-layered hulls.",

        "title": "The Collaborative Option",
        "raw_content": "A growing method of resolving family law disputes is collaborative law. This option allows the parties to sit down with neutrals and work together to come to a mutually beneficial agreement. This does not mean that everyone gets along; it means that everyone wants to work together to get the best outcome possible and walk away without disparaging the other person in Court. People choose collaborative law for divorce, custody (conservatorship), and child support issues for a number of reasons - from privacy to co-parenting for the children. This process is not for everyone, but it can be a great option for couples dissolving their marriage or working to resolve child-related issues.\nMany like to compare collaborative to other types of resolution through this comparison. Bob and Jill are fighting about an apple. If they go to court, the judge will look at what is available and divide the apple, and most likely, neither will get the entire apple and will not be happy. If they go with the collaborative route, they can discuss why they want the apple. Through collaborative meetings, they discover that Jill wants the rind to bake, and Bob wants the apple to eat. Therefore, in collaborative, they can both get \"the entire\" apple and get their needs met through this process.\nBelow is an outline of different ways couples can choose to handle their case. Each option has its own pros and cons, and you should discuss these with your attorney before moving forward with any option.\n\u201cKitchen Table\u201d Settlements\nThis settlement method is simple. The couple sits down \u201cat the kitchen table \u201d and works out an arrangement that satisfies each of them. The agreement can be taken to a lawyer to be put into legal form, or used to complete do-it-yourself forms. Unlike some other settlement options, this method of reaching agreements can produce inexpensive, quick, private agreements for couples who do not have children or substantial assets. Without the benefit of legal advice, however, you may not know if you are giving up valuable rights. It is also easy to \u201cre-invent the wheel,\u201d or make mistakes that someone with family-law experience could help you avoid. People often find, upon taking the agreement to a lawyer, that questions will arise that may cause one or both spouses to change their agreement. If the husband and wife do not have equal information and equal power in the relationship, one person might not get his or her needs met.\nDo-it-Yourself Agreements\nBookstores and online resources sell forms that can be used to handle a divorce (or child agreements) without attorneys. Forms may also be available at local law libraries. Simple forms for people without children or substantial property are also available online without charge. Divorce kits or forms generally provide a checklist approach to property and child-related issues, so users are not left completely in the dark about their options. But not all forms are equal; some can create more problems than they solve. When children and real estate or other major assets are involved, the forms may not be detailed enough to do what you are trying to accomplish. Further, checklists cannot inform you of your rights and leave little room for creativity. If the couple does not have equal information and equal power in the relationship, one person might not get his or her needs met.\nMediation is assisted settlement negotiation. Mediators don\u2019t take sides, and are used for the sole purpose of trying to help people reach a settlement. Many couples find working with a skilled mediator at the start to be a helpful and satisfying way to settle the issues. A mediator is a neutral party, not necessarily an attorney, who can help the couple resolve all of the questions that a court wants addressed in the final divorce decree. Even if the mediator is an attorney, he or she cannot give the parties legal advice. Often couples who choose this route to resolution will hire an attorney or attorneys to give them legal guidance before or during the mediation process, which usually is conducted in a series of joint meetings with the mediator.\nIn the Collaborative Law model, the couple and their lawyers agree in advance that no one will take any contested issue to court. The \u201cCollaborative Team,\u201d which often includes mental health and financial professionals, focuses its attention on finding ways to restructure the family so that everyone involved gets their needs met to the greatest extent possible. The lawyers on this team should be family lawyers with experience and training in Collaborative Law. If a husband and wife decide to follow the Collaborative Law road to divorce they must sign an agreement that they will share all information available to them about their property and children. They agree to work together with their attorneys and other professionals to come to a mutually arrived at solution that meets both of their most important goals and concerns. In the event that they are not able to settle their cases using the Collaborative Law model, litigation attorneys can still take the case to court, but the Collaborative Law Team cannot continue to represent them.\nCollaborative Law is conducted in a series of joint meetings in which the parties and their lawyers, and possibly other professionals, sit down together in the same room. Under Texas law, everything that is said in theses meetings is confidential and can never be brought up in court. Participation in the process is voluntary, and can never be ordered by a court. It can be used for divorce, custody (conservatorship), or child support issues. Either party may choose to end the process at will, and both parties must agree to any resolution that is reached.\nIn litigation, decisions are made for the parties by a judge, or sometimes a jury. There are very strict rules about what information may be presented to the decision-maker. Litigation does provide resolution for people who cannot find a way to settle their differences any other way. The court system is the only way to \u201cforce\u201d a reluctant party to deal with family law issues. Litigation, however, is a process that often focuses on the negative aspects of divorce and other family law matters. In comparison to some other divorce options, it causes people to focus on how they are \u201cright\u201d and the other is \u201cwrong,\u201d when they really may just have different ideas about how their lives should look after the orders are signed. Litigation can be expensive and destructive to relationships. Even though most cases settle before they ever go to trial, the process of preparing to go to trial, if necessary, can cause relationship damage that is difficult \u2013 if not impossible \u2013 to repair. The costs of litigation can use up funds that could be put to better use, like children\u2019s college or litigants\u2019 post-divorce financial autonomy.\nMediation is generally part of the litigation process. In most courts, the parties are required to try to settle their case through mediation before they go to court for trial. The mediators are neutral and can offer clients a different unbiased perspective. Also, having both clients, both lawyers and a mediator in the same place at the same time with everyone\u2019s attention focused on getting a settlement can often create a positive environment for making agreements. But mediation often takes place just before a case is scheduled to go to trial, after the parties have already spent money, time and emotional energy fighting. Mediation under these circumstances can sometimes feel coercive to clients, who may never have discussed the realities of their situation with their attorneys.\nAlthough seldom used, arbitration is another road to resolution that is available in a divorce or child disputes, if both parties agree to utilize the process. An arbitrator is a hired judge who hears the evidence that would otherwise be presented in a trial, and the arbitrator\u2019s decision can be binding or non-binding, depending on the agreements of the parties. Like Collaborative Law, an agreement to arbitrate in a family law matter must be in writing. An arbitrator can be hired to decide all of the issues in a divorce or just one or more. Unlike a trial to a Court, the hearings before the arbitrator can be heard at times convenient to the parties and their attorneys. If everyone has agreed that the arbitrator\u2019s award is binding, the Court must enter a judgment that reflects the arbitrator\u2019s decision. A trial to an arbitrator may be informal, or may follow all of the rules of evidence and discovery that are required in a trial to the Court, depending on the signed agreements. An arbitration can be heard before one judge or three judges, depending on the signed agreements. Either way, the arbitrator must be paid for his or her time, which could add up to the same cost as litigation.",

        "raw_content": "Mihintale article with plenty of photos\nNo photos in this blogpost, but the title claims, there are plenty of them... What's wrong here? Admittedly, there is a problem. The problem is, our main article about Mihintale's attractions has so many photos of 900 by 600 dots size that it can take some time to load the very, very long page. So we ask for your patience. But we propose to wait a second or two, because our article provides very comprehensive information about Mihintale and surroundings and the photos give you an impression, how many lovely things you can see in Mihintale and how many of them can not be seen in your illustrated guidebooks. So if you are looking for highly attractive sites off the beaten path, you don't have to walk far distances in Mihintale. Nevertheless, the most famous sites, such as Ambasthala Dagaba, which are frequented by many more tourists, are still charming Buddhist sites, as they are visited by even more Sinhalese pilgrims. Mihintale, known as the cradle of Sri Lanka's Buddhism, is a sacred place. You have to behave accordingly, and you will confirm: This is not the atmosphere of mass tourism. Mihintale is genuinely Sri Lankan.",

        "title": "What Is an Injection Molding Machine | Leafly Mould Blog",
        "raw_content": "Shaping liquid plastic resins into solid, usable objects and parts is a modern science that is commonly performed using an injection molding machine. The machines come in various sizes, with the size of the machine determined by the desired dimensions of the finished product. Invented in 1872, the injection molding process revolutionized the plastics industry. It is currently a multi-billion dollar business that produces about 32% by weight of all the world\u2019s plastics. Its popularity is credited to the injection molding process, and the machines that make millions of consumer products and manufacturing parts and components that are affordable, yet strong and long-lasting.\nThe injection molding machine construction and operation are fairly simple. The machine consists of six basic parts. The major components of the machine include a hopper where the raw materials are inserted, a barrel to carry the materials to the heating unit, a heater to break down the materials into liquid, a nozzle to pump the liquid into the mold, a clamping unit to solidify the shape, and an ejector to expel the finished product.\nTo produce an injection molded product, liquid resin is poured into the injection molding machine hopper, followed by dyes or tints. Gravity draws the resin into the barrel, and the heating process melts the resin into a smooth liquid. An injection mechanism, usually a reciprocating screw or ram injector, forces the liquid into the mold. If small amounts of the resin are desired in the mold, the reciprocating screw is used as it can inject as little as 5% of the entire amount in the hopper. The ram injector is used when at least 20% of the total amount in the hopper needs to be forced into the mold.\nThe mold determines the shape for the finished product, and cools the liquid into a solid. While the cooling is in process, the plates of the injection mold are held together by either mechanical or hydraulic force. This clamping procedure determines the final shape of the finished product. Since different resins have different shrinking values, molds are designed with specific resins in mind.\nProblems with injection molding machine performance are normally uncomplicated and easily solved. Burned or singed parts can be avoided by lowering the hopper temperature or reducing processing time. Warpage is normally solved by adjusting the mold\u2019s surface temperature or adjusting the mold\u2019s thickness. Imperfections in the product\u2019s surface may be corrected through adjusting the mold\u2019s temperature, moisture levels, or pressure.",

        "raw_content": "Wood, Frank Watson (1862-1953). Watercolour on board signed and dated 1937 (lower right).\n13.5 x 5.75 inches (34 x 14.6 cms approx)\nDated by the artist 1937 this watercolour appears to have been executed at the same time as the others he painted of events before, during and after the Coronation Fleet Review at Spithead in May 1937, several of which feature on this website and on Maritime Prints' website.\nThe Coronation of King George VI took place in Westminster Abbey on 12th May 1937 and representative warships of the Mediterranean Fleet were expected to be at the Spithead Fleet Review a week later though there had been discussion at the highest political levels about the wisdom of reducing the RN's presence in that theatre as the Spanish Civil War was keeping the ships very busy: over 30 were deployed in Spanish waters that summer. But approval for a short absence was given and on 13th May the C-in-C Mediterranean Fleet, Admiral Sir Dudley Pound with his flag in QUEEN ELIZABETH (Captain E L S King MVO RN) brought the Med Fleet's 1st Battle Squadron home and through the Needles Passage in thick fog to their anchorage at Spithead. Other HM Ships from all stations around the world also started arriving and by Review Day, 20th May, 140 men-of-war from the Royal and Dominion Navies - together with 18 foreign warships - had assembled.\nThis painting of Portsmouth was almost certainly executed soon after the ships had dispersed after the Review and has been annotated in pencil on the back of the watercolour (possibly by Wood himself) \"QUEEN ELIZABETH and RAMILLIES\". QE is on the right lying alongside what would appear to be South Railway Jetty, an appropriate berth for a flagship, or a ship which had just hauled down the flag of the Commander-in-Chief when it had been transferred temporarily to BARHAM until WARSPITE was ready. As she was only in Portsmouth in 1937 after the Review -when she entered the dockyard to start a long 3 year refit - this points to the date of the painting being just post Review.\nOut in the stream with at least one dockyard tug connected is RAMILLIES (Captain R W Oldham RN) who had also been out in the lines for the Review: four of her eight 15 inch guns are pointed towards us and it was one of these guns that subsequently was to be mounted outside the Imperial War Museum in London when the old battleship was scrapped in 1948\nAnd in the foreground is what appears to be the Southern Railway's Portsmouth - Ryde paddler, PS SHANKLIN coming in from the Isle of Wight with a healthy load of passengers. The Southern Railway's paddlers ran a busy service between Porstmouth Harbour and Ryde Pier on the Island and it was never busier than for such occasions as these great fleet reviews staged right across their route: marvellous front row viewing for their passengers! To the right of QUEEN ELIZABETH in the painting and dominating the great naval dockyard is Semaphore Tower, the control and co ordination centre for all ship movements in Portsmouth harbour, presided over by a naval officer, The King's Harbour Master, a title which exists to this day, albeit now Queen's Harbour Master.",

        "raw_content": "Weekend #3 - Longhorns have the spotlight to themselves\nIt was an abnormal occurrence due to the Ofsaa boys volleyball championships happening around the province that the OVA only held one age group competition this past weekend. Most weekends are usually jammed packed with OVA tournaments.\nFittingly it was the opening tournament for the 2014 15U Boys Provincial Champions and National East Silver Medalist, the Maverick Longhorns. Last year's edition of the Longhorns was able to sneak up on their opponents but that will not be the case this year where they will be wearing the bulls-eye at every tournament that they play in this year. The boys were ranked number one going into the Championship East tournament with 8 other teams.\nIn pool play the Longhorns defeated the Viking Warriors in two sets (25-12, 25-5) and the Markham Wildcats Jaguars (25-15, 25-18). With those two wins the boys secured themselves a quarter final match against the cross town rivals the Ottawa Fusion 16Us. At the conclusion of the match the early season bragging rights belong to the Longhorns as they defeated Fusion in two sets (25-15, 25-19).\nThe semi-final was a rematch of the National East Championship game as the Longhorns faced the Markham Wildcats Tigers (formerly Outtahand). The Longhorns lost their first set by a score of 22-25 but bounced back to win 25-16 and 15-11 in the third set. It must have felt good for the boys to get a win against such a strong team, especially having lost a big match to them last May for a national title. Coach St-Denis stated that: \"..we looked good in terms of depth our \"rookies\" pushed the \"veterans\" to up their game\" St-Denis was referring to the significant contributions of the team's new additions as their solid play helped the team win the second set\nThe Longhorns had no time to rest as they played the Markham Stingers Wasps for the gold medal. The high of playing such a close semi final must have caught up to the Longhorns as they lost their opening set by a score of 22-25. The Longhorns regrouped to win the second 25-22 and in the third the boys were down 4-8 at the court change but proceeded to score 11 points to their opponent's 5 to win 15-13.\nAfter the match St-Denis had this to say about the boys: \"They are a real resilient bunch coming from behind in both the semi and final, however we passed for 1.42 (out of 3), so we have plenty of room for improvement\"\nGreat job gentlemen!\nGoMavsGo!",

        "raw_content": "Shumaun Reveals Debut Album Details\nShumaun initially started as a solo project by Farhad Hossain (ex-vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist of the Sensory Records progressive metal outfit Iris Divine). After recording a few demos, he decided to recruit some friends to help build the project into a full-fledged collaborative band.\nThis is what led to the debut self-titled record that will be released on November 13, 2015 with pre-orders up now right here. You can also check out the first single \"Ambrosia\" below.\nThrough the course of recording this debut album, Shumaun went through a period of tribulation while securing a drummer. Original drummer Tanvir Tomal (ex Iris Divine) had to leave for professional obligations in the middle of the recording sessions and was later replaced with Waqar Khan (Entity Paradigm), who is also well known for his work with the platinum-selling Ali Azmat of the EMI recording artist Junoon (one of South Asia's most successful rock bands).\nWaqar remained with the band long enough to record a few tracks on the debut record as well as appear live for some of the earlier shows. He later had to leave due to professional obligations that required relocation. Drumming legends Travis Orbin (Darkest Hour, Periphery) and Mark Zonder (Fates Warning, Warlord) recorded the remaining drums on the record. The full track listing is:\n1. A New Revolution\n2. Miracles of Yesterday\n3. You and I Will Change the World\n5. We Always Disappear\n6. When It's Our Turn\n10. Sunrise at Midnight\n11.

Andrew Cuomo announced the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority\u2019s (MTA) subway, bus and commuter rail services will be free for Thursday and Friday to encourage the use of public transit as the region slowly recovers from the devastating effects of Hurricane Sandy.\nThe free service will last until 11:59 p.m. on Friday, and will allow for free rides on the NYC Subway and Bus network, Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad. Free travel will also be available on Access-a-Ride.\n\u201cThe gridlock we experienced yesterday shows that the New York metropolitan region is in a transportation emergency,\u201d Gov. Cuomo said. \u201cTo get people out of their cars and onto mass transit, I immediately authorized the MTA to suspend transit fares through the end of the work week.\u201d\nThe fare-free days coincide with the restoration of limited subway service today along segments of roughly half of the system's 23 lines. With no electricity to power the third rail or to operate signals south of 36th Street, there will be no service between 34th St in Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn. Service will operate from the Bronx, Queens and Upper Manhattan to Midtown and from Queens and parts of Brooklyn to Downtown Brooklyn. Shuttle Buses will operate from Jay St-MetroTech, Atlantic Ave-Barclays Center in Downtown Brooklyn and Hewes St in Williamsburg to 57th St & Lexington Ave via 3rd Ave.\nLimited service on the Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North Railroad was restored on Wednesday, with the Long Island Rail Road providing service between Jamaica and Penn Station while Metro-North offered hourly service on the Harlem Line between North White Plains and Grand Central Terminal.\nBoth commuter rails are offering additional service today. Metro-North is operating close to regular service between Mount Kisco and Grand Central Terminal on the Harlem Line and on the New Haven Line between Stamford and Grand Central Terminal. The Long Island Rail Road is offering limited hourly service on the Ronkonkoma Branch and on the Port Washington Branch from Great Neck for the morning rush.\nThe MTA began restoring service Tuesday night, when limited bus service began to roll across the five boroughs, followed by a near normal schedule Thursday. Bus service will be at near normal levels on Thursday on all local, limited and express bus routes.\nWith limited service in operation, customers are advised to give themselves extra time for their commute, and if possible change their routine by traveling later in the morning or in the evening.",

Delaware residents living within the ten-mile radius have received notification of the distribution via U.S. Mail.\nPotassium iodide will be available to residents who received it previously and whose tablets have reached the expiration date, or those who never received the tablets before. Individuals with home or business addresses within the EPZ are eligible to receive KI tablets. The State of Delaware received the tablets when it chose to participate in a program initiated by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.\nPotassium iodide does not protect against external radiation, but can help protect the thyroid gland from ingested or inhaled radioactive iodine that might be released in a radiation emergency. KI is one of the measures outlined in Delaware\u2019s emergency plans developed for use in a nuclear incident.\nIn the event of a radiation emergency, state and local officials will inform the public through an Emergency Alert System (EAS) message via local radio stations, which will include instructions on how affected residents should react, directions to evacuation routes and emergency reception centers, and if or when to take the KI tablets.\nThose who are eligible to receive potassium iodide should bring a photo ID such as a driver\u2019s license, proof of residency such as a utility bill, or proof of employment within the EPZ, when they go to the distribution center at Middletown Fire Hall. Individuals in possession of potassium iodide that has passed the expiration date can bring those tablets to the distribution center to exchange for new tablets.\nDelaware residents living outside of the 10-mile EPZ who would like to obtain potassium iodide tablets should contact their pharmacist. KI is available over-the-counter at some local pharmacies.\nFor additional information regarding the potassium iodide distribution program in Delaware, call the Delaware Emergency Management Agency Radiological Emergency Planning section at 302-659-3362.",

The species, measuring 1.7 to 3.4 meters and weighing between 120 to 220 lbs, is found in the warm tropical waters of the world.\nThere exist two subspecies of the sailfish - the Atlantic sailfish (Istiophorus albicans) found in the Atlantic Ocean and the Indo-Pacific sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) found in the Pacific and the Indian Ocean. With a spectacularly big dorsal fin, which gives it the name sailfish, considerably long bill and a crescent-shaped tail, the sailfish has a hydrodynamic streamlined body - which helps it clock amazing speeds and makes it the fastest species of fish in the world.\nThere do exist reports about the sailfish species clocking a speed of 70 mph which brings them at par with the fastest land animal, though the authenticity of these reports is still under the scanner. The second fastest fish in the world, the black marlin with an average speed of 50 mph belongs to the same billfish family. Our knowledge of the marine biome is limited due to some obvious reasons, and that makes it a bit difficult to figure out which the fastest marine species in the world are. In such circumstances, the chances of there being some marine creature that can be faster than the cheetah cannot be ruled out.",

        "raw_content": "I had to laugh the other day when I was in Thomas' meds appointment with him. Let me first say that often the reason I go in there is because Thomas asks me to or when I ask him if I can come in he agrees. He always tells me that he forgets things and he's glad that I'm there to help him remember. We've never had a problem with me going in unless the meds doc himself kicks me out, which HAS happened a few times.\nThe other day though we were talking about all of Thomas' symptoms trying to sort things out between the dehydration episode and the increasing/morphing delusions. We had a real round table discussion going and I felt like I was being heard and Thomas was getting a voice.\nThen it happened. While in there, I was reminded that one of the reasons that we had been given a 3 week appointment as opposed to a 6 week one was because we were watching not only his delusions but also what seemed to be a creeping depression. Towards the end of the appointment I spoke up and I said,\n\"I forgot. I just wanted to let you know that he seems to be doing better depression-wise. He seems happier and I haven't seen some of the low moods and agitation that we've been seeing previous.\"\nHis meds doc didn't miss a beat, seemed to almost wave me off and he turned to Thomas and said,\n\"Is that how YOU feel Thomas? How are YOU feeling? I know what mom SEES but what do YOU feel?\"\nI wanted to sink through my chair and disappear. I realized that I had somewhat overstepped and instead of asking Thomas if his depression was better I was so busy talking about what I had seen. There are limits to the usefulness of my opinion and I think I reached it in that moment. Thomas, of course, said he felt much better but I was left wondering if I had gone one step too far. I'm kind of guilty of that in other areas of my life. Sometimes my motto seems to be:\n\"If a little is good then a lot is better.\"\nWell, not in this case and I found myself relegated to the proverbial corner and a scarlet \"O\" slapped on my forehead for \"overprotective\", \"overinvolved\", \"over the top\". Effectively I had become a stage mom, so busy running the show that I hadn't stopped to consider Thomas' thoughts in this instance.\nReally though, I have a sense of humor about it. My heart is in the right place. Thomas has never hissed at me to shut up and the meds doc still returns my frantic phone calls in between appointments so all is well. I'm still new to the game and while I've been working for my degree in psychology, somehow that knowledge escapes me when it comes to wording questions correctly and letting Thomas, or others, speak for themselves in these sorts of situations.\nHere I'll stay now through the next couple of appointments, hunched in my chair, communicating the necessary information but not being a \"stage mom\" orchestrating the show is going to be my \"homework\" for the time being.\nWish me luck. It's not in me to keep my mouth shut. It hasn't been since he got sick and until I feel like everyone is being heard, it will probably remain in me.",

        "raw_content": "Argentina: Seven Years After The \"Laboratorios Raffo\" Case: It Is Illegal To Levy A Municipal Tax (\"Tasas Municipales\") On Companies Which Do Not Have An Authorized Establishment Within Municipal Jurisdiction\nArticle by Horacio D. Garcia Prieto, Mar\u00eda In\u00e9s Brandt, Walter C. Keiniger and Tomas Enrique Garcia Botta\nConsidering the judgment by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice, it is imperative that the Municipality of Posadas reviews its position which involves claiming the payment of a retributive tax in absence of its required taxable event: the existence of an establishment or deposit where divisible services funded by the collection of such tax can be actually provided.\nAlmost seven years ago, on June 23 2009, the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice issued a judgment as a result of the appeal filed by Laboratorios Raffo S.A. against the decision pronounced by the Superior Court of Justice of the Province of C\u00f3rdoba in favor of the tax assessment made by the Municipality of C\u00f3rdoba with respect to the \u201cContribuci\u00f3n que incide sobre el Comercio, la Industria y las Empresas de Servicios\u201d (\u201cCCIES\u201d), a general services municipal tax.\nThe Argentine Supreme Court of Justice reaffirmed the position stated in the \u201cCompa\u00f1\u00eda Qu\u00edmica\u201d case (Fallos 312:1575, judgment dated September 5, 1989). Therefore, to determine the lawfulness of any tax, its legal nature must be analyzed by the Court. This examination is not merely academic or theoretical as it gains practical relevance because the taxable events differ in each kind of tax (taxes \u2013\u201cimpuestos\u201d, retributive taxes -\u201ctasas\u201d- and taxes levied for special purposes \u201ccontribuciones especiales\u201d) and the actual configuration of the taxable event in each case determines if the tax must be paid or not.\nThe Argentine Supreme Court of Justice described the CCIES as a retributive tax and later on, analyzed if the tax was applicable to Laboratorios Raffo considering that the company commended the promotion of its products to a pharmaceutical sales representative that resided in the City of C\u00f3rdoba but lacked an establishment or deposit of any kind within its jurisdiction.\nThe Argentine Supreme Court of Justice concluded that the position of the Municipality of C\u00f3rdoba, according to which levying a retributive tax on the grounds of the provision of several general services considered as a whole (e.g. control of buildings; the coordination of transportation; the necessity of ordering the transit and regulation of parking spaces) is legal, does not satisfy the essential requirement applicable to all retributive taxes: the collection of such taxes requires a concrete, effective and individualized service, referred to something not less individualized (act or good) by the taxpayer, a requirement that, in the Court\u2019s opinion, is based on Section 17 of the Argentine Constitution.\nLastly, the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice indicated that even though its judgments only decide in cases brought before it and its conclusions are not mandatory with respect to analogous cases, lower courts must align their decisions to those, as a result of which the sentences of lower courts that do not follow the Court\u2019s precedents without giving new arguments are considered to be groundless.\nThe judgment issued in \u201cLaboratorios Raffo\u201d has been gradually followed by the lower courts of the Province of C\u00f3rdoba and, later on, by its municipalities. To this date, there have been no new claims similar to the one that was decided in \u201cLaboratorios Raffo\u201d. In addition, some municipalities have been signing agreements with taxpayers to reimburse the sums paid by the companies as a procedural requirement to challenge administrative decisions in court. Therefore, it could be concluded that the Municipalities of the Province of C\u00f3rdoba have complied with the caselaw of the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice.\nAfter seven years since the \u201cLaboratorios Raffo\u201d ruling, the debate on whether retributive taxes can be levied without physical presence (that is, on companies that lack an authorized establishment or deposit within municipal jurisdiction) has been resumed by the Municipality of Posadas, Province of Misiones.\nIn this jurisdiction, the Municipal Tax Code sets forth a retributive tax similar to the CCIES, named \u201cDerecho de Inspecci\u00f3n, Registro y Servicio de Contralor\u201d (\u201cDIRySC\u201d). In spite of its name, the DIRySC is a retributive tax, as a result of how the taxable event is defined by Section 107 of the Municipal Tax Code, which states that the DIRySC \u201cwill be applicable as a result of divisible or indivisible services of: registry, authorization, inspection, control of weights and measures, economic development and promotion, safety, hygiene and social attendance, among others, being this list not exhaustive.\u201d Section 108 of the Municipal Tax Code contains a provision with respect to the taxpayers and expressly sets forth that the retributive tax is applicable whether or not taxpayers possess an establishment or deposit within the jurisdiction of the Municipality of Posadas. These provisions are supplemented by a tax collection and withholding regime and the massive designation of local individuals to act as withholding agents.\nAt first, the Municipality of Posadas \u2013despite the broadness of the Municipal Tax Code provisions- acted in compliance with the caselaw stated by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice in \u201cLaboratorios Raffo\u201d. In effect, it waived the payment of the DIRySC in cases of companies without physical presence within municipal jurisdiction and excluded such companies from the tax collection and withholding regime. The municipality even issued certificates of non-withholding.\nNevertheless, from 2014 onward the Municipality of Posadas stopped issuing certificates of non-withholding and decided to register for tax purposes (the DIRySC) many companies without establishment or deposits within municipal jurisdiction. Therefore, such companies started to be subject of the local withholding regime on the sales made to clients located within municipal jurisdiction. Later on, the municipality began tax assessments with respect to the DIRySC and often requested prejudgment attachments in order to secure credit. These prejudgment attachments have been granted by local courts disregarding the scope of the caselaw established by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice.\nThe municipality\u2019s behavior, as it involves claiming the payment of a retributive tax in absence of its required taxable event \u2013the existence of an establishment or deposit where divisible services funded by the collection of such tax can be actually provided- is worrisome and must not be tolerated by the courts of justice.\nConsidering the judgment stated by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice on the matter, prejudgment attachments of the kind requested by the Municipality of Posadas should not be granted. It is imperative that the Municipality of Posadas reviews its position in order to prevent alleged taxpayers from being forced to challenge the constitutionality of the DIRySC before federal and provincial courts. The experience gathered by the municipalities of the Province of C\u00f3rdoba and their current serious financial difficulties as a result of the reimbursement of the CCIES should serve as an example of the risks that the administration of tax resources with disregard for the legal system and the precedents of the Supreme Court of Justice entail.\nHoracio D.

        "raw_content": "Newspaper ad exhorted citizens to enlist in the Army for service in World War I.\nHISTORY REPEATS: Rebirth of Battery Park Recalls Memorable Event\nCongressman Loud Spoke to Civil War Vets at 1907 Dedication\nImages of a historic event 109 years ago will return Tuesday to mark the rebirth of Bay City's historic Battery Park.\nThe downtown four-quadrant park at Center and Jefferson not only greeted returning heroes from the Civil War, the Spanish-American War and World War I, it was the headquarters of recruitment of soldiers in 1917 and war bond sales in 1918.\n-- To View Installation Video, Click Below --\nSo when the tributes ring out once again on Tuesday, this time in front of the Wirt Library, Battery Park will bask in the glow of community pride as it has for over a century.\nOn June 12, 1907, it was Congressman George Loud of Oscoda addressing the members of the Grand Army of the Republic as he presided over ceremonies marking placement of four massive Civil War cannon he had obtained from the government.\nThe Bay City Times headlined:\n\"AT BATTERY PARK; HISTORIC GUNS DEDICATED BY CONGRESSMAN LOUD; IN STIRRING SPEECH TO VETERANS WHO WERE THE BLUE.\"\nA reporter on hand took down his every word and reported Loud's remarks:\n\"Two of these historic pieces were once a part of the broadside battery of Admiral Farragut's flagship, the Hartford,\" intoned the Congressman at the 1907 ceremonies. \"There was a time in which they spoke in loud and determined voice that we should have a free and united country.\n\"Their voices rang out again and again at Port Hudson, at Mobile and New Orleans, and victory came each time at their call.\n\"These ponderous mortars, once in Fort Sumter in those fierce days of the Civil War, have now come hundreds of miles to seek a final resting place here in Bay City.\"\nLoud concluded, no doubt in stentorian tones reflecting appropriate patriotism: \"May we not hope that in viewing them, the younger and rising generations may realize the scenes that these great mortars have passed through and be ever ready as they come in manhood to do their part when their country calls them and ever ready to defend their country and our beautiful flag.\"\nTurning to the blue-clad veterans of the Civil War, 500 of whom had settled in the booming lumber town of Bay City after the war, Congressman Loud said: \"You are the men who marched with Sherman from Atlanta to the sea and you are the men who at last, at the close of the war, marched in that Grand Review, a part of that grand army of 189,109 veterans.\n\"I consider it one of the greatest honors of my life to be asked to address you, soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic, today, and I thank you for it.\"\nFor four years Loud was a colonel on the staff of Michigan Governor Hazen S. Pingree. He was paymaster on the U.S. revenue cutter \"McCulloch\" when it participated in the Battle of Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War. He was killed in an auto accident at Myrtle Point, Michigan, in 1925 and is buried in AuSable Cemetery, Oscoda.\nTuesday at center stage will be Keith Markstrom, a Vietnam veteran, president of the Bay Veterans Foundation, whose fundraising of $125,000 and planning led to replication of the historic cannon at a local firm, Bay Cast, Inc., and construction of a guard shack/kiosk by students at Delta College directed by Dave Bledsoe, head of the construction management division.\nWhile the original mortar cannon weighed 17,000 pounds and the Dahlgren ship cannon weighed 14,000 pounds, the replicas of necessity are hollow and weigh 5,000 pounds and 4,600 pounds respectively, according to Bay Cast President Max Holman.\nDr. Tim Eckstein, chairman of the rededication committee, will open the event at 5 p.m., followed by the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War who will parade and post the colors.\nOther speakers will include City Manager Rick Finn, County Executive Tom Hickner, and Bay County Library Trustee Don Carlyon. The formal re-dedication will be by guest speaker Col. Roger Donlon, Medal of Honor recipient and Honorary Chairman of the Bay Veterans Foundation.\nA trumpet quartet comprised of Tom Friewald, designer of the historical kiosk, John Rickert, David Selley and Joel Wiseman will play the National Anthem to open the ceremonies, will present a service medley, taps and will conclude the affair with several patriotic breaths of air.",

        "raw_content": "\"What is ad hoc government?\"\nGun Control = The Final Solution = Back to the Bronze Age\nby Andrew G. Eggleston Sr.\nwhitesage12@hotmail.com\nI am so tired of hearing that there need to be stricter gun control laws, that the \"hug-a-thug\" Democrats actually believe that an evil person can be stopped with still another flimsy piece of paper, and that we will all be safer for it.\nGun control worked for Nazi Germany; there were literally millions of (Jewish) people willing to obey the laws of their government, only to finally present the Nazi Regime with the gift of complete submission by their populace. Even Nazi party members were not allowed to own guns unless they had demonstrated a specific need for them. It was this same \"legislation\" that prevented pockets of resistance such as the Warsaw ghetto from mounting a successful campaign against those soldiers in their area, only to leave the survivors to finally be processed through the Final Solution -- the execution of enemies of the state. Primarily Jewish peoples were worked to death or simply tortured to their expiration, but what is little known to many who have enjoyed the 8 X 10 color glossy version of history presented in America's schools is that many people of various walks of life were privileged to walk the same path as the Holocaust Jews. The list merely includes; Political \"Dissidents\" (The Red Triangle) such as Social Democrats (yes the very same people who support gun control laws in America today!), Anarchists (as libertarians are sometimes called), Freemasons, and other \"enemies of the state\", Armed Services personnel wore their red triangle point up, Homosexual or Bi-sexual (male) \"Deviants\" (The Pink Triangle), Jehovah's Witnesses (The Purple Triangle), Criminals (The Green Triangle), \"Gypsies\" (The Brown Triangle), the Yellow Triangle could be added behind any of these to designate a Jew (e.g. Green Triangle over Yellow for a Jewish Criminal, and finally Miscellaneous (The Black Triangle) which included such dangerous radicals as the mentally retarded, Alcoholics, Vagrants, some Anarchists, and women who threatened the social order by using birth control, were of lesbian orientation, or were prostitutes (unless sanctioned by the Wehrmacht). Due process in Nazi Germany was concise, arrest, file of charges, and execution of sentencing. But enough of the history lesson; how does all this compare to modern day America?\nFelons (The Green Triangle) are restricted from owning firearms; \"Dangerous Radicals\" (The Black Triangle) have their gun rights infringed upon -- though they may need guns to defend themselves more than any of us. Just because our government hasn't actually initiated a triangle designation system for every person to see does not mean that one does not exist. Remember, Hitler said; \"the bigger the lie, the more it is accepted by the uninformed public\", and he was right. Today in America hundreds of thousands stand with blinders on, believing what they are told by the major news media, what is sad is that people with common sense enough to get out of jury duty don't have the sense to question their own government! No one is made uncomfortable by watching Tom Cruise, Clint Eastwood, or some other Hollywood action star kill or wound dozens of people in the course of a movie -- the higher the body-count the greater the numbers at the box-office. But when an incident of real people doing the same thing comes on the boob-tube people are suddenly shocked, how could someone do something like that?\nConsider this; these people (usually males) have been conditioned not to respect the lethal power of equalizing metal, with movies, video games, television programs, and the nightly news. Their parents fail to teach the actual ramifications of achieving a high score on a first-person-shooter video game. All of their heroes use guns and do so with impunity, never having to face consequences for breaking the law or killing without provocation. Add to all that, how many of these \"incidents\" take place in small rural communities? Very few, why, because children who hunt and are brought up to protect their property from predators, take a hunter safety course and appreciate the lethality of the weapon they hold. But they still like video games they just don't imitate them.\nGun control laws are akin to welcoming us all to the Bronze Age of survival, where the biggest, strongest, and most aggressive, take control and keep control. Without Sam Colt's equalizer women again become property, men again have to carry large swords and knives to protect themselves. Sweat and blood-soaked battles like occurred inside the Roman Coliseum would become the only means of protecting ourselves, and would eventually encompass our children. Communities would be forced again to form militia to protect themselves from roving bands of looters. All of this would of course be in vain because the criminals who outnumber the finger-men (police) more than ten-to-one would be just as well or better armed than the \"peacekeepers\". Only the private citizen suffers under such legislation, becoming disarmed victims. Once that happens the only thing left to the citizen, is to choose a side, police or criminal, to protect and defend their persons and chattels. But that discussion is a whole 'nother subject, we call it \"Civil War\".\nConsider the lessons of history when you vote.\nVitamin Shoppe Special Sale/Discount\nOver 20,000 products from more than 400 brands",

        "raw_content": "The one: \"absolutely, positvely the only person on earth you are meant to be with. soul mate and best friend.\" (urban dictionary)\nSome people look back at their life / history and can identify two, three or more people that they could have married and been happy with. When I look back, I think every single person I dated or had a crush on would never have worked, I think, 'That would have been a train wreck!'\nThat said, the number of people I've met and known well over the course of my life is finite so I can't definitively argue for or against the theory of there being just one, \"the one\".\nIt does confirm to me, however, that those of us that do find a good companion are supremely fortunate. It also part-explains the high divorce rate: in a world where men and women are both earners the realisation that you married the wrong one will inevitably lead to a break up.\nWhat's the point of this blog? Well if I died tomorrow I just want this up for posterity! Year 1 of marriage was great and I remain certain that I married the right mate.\nMy husband will tell you that one of the reasons I put so much energy into my \"random thoughts\" and \"books\" blogs is so that if I ever died my family would have these thoughts to hold on to.\nOn the BBC this a.m. a story was aired about a tragic accident in which a white man's black wife was killed by a speeding Mercedes. He set up a blog on Life as a Widower to talk about his grief. Please show you support by following @lifeasawidower and liking Life as a Widower. The whole story felt even more sad to me having just woken up and written about my \"one\".\nThe Real Meaning of: Dance Like No One is Watching\nWeird fact about me: When I'm out and about with my headphones in and a good song comes on, I start to dance. I don't care who's watching.\nTo the 10 year old little boy who was taking a walk with his papa in Blackheath Village and kept turning around to watch: the song was \"Sweat (a la la la la long), from the album Bad to the Bone - by Inner Circle\" ~ but at your age you shouldn't know a song like that.\nMe getting my eagle on in uni, est. 2004\nThis is different to when I was in high school and would sit by the wayside at school discos because I was convinced \"I couldn't dance\".\nI went to the University of Cambridge which is almost all white and because I was \"different\" anyway I started dancing. The 'white people can't dance' stereotype bulked up my confidence.\nTo my surprise, people would come up to me in clubs and be like, \"You can really dance\"!! My dancing confidence was boosted and a dancing queen was born.\nLesson: don't let what you think other people might think control your behaviour. Dance like no one is watching.\nThis extends to many other facets of life. Many people don't embark on new journeys because of what they believe other people will think. It's human nature, it's been impressed upon us from birth that we need to be concerned about how others perceive us but frankly the less I care the happier I am, generally.\nJack Reacher FILM REVIEW\nI love Jack Reacher (the character).\nLee Child's novels helped me to survive many a dreary day in the hectic world of investment banking so I was very keen to see this film and it totally met my expectations.\nJack Reacher is 6 foot 5 and Tom Cruise is only 5 foot 8 but that didn't matter; Tom Cruise did a good job of getting his body to look like a fit ex-veteran.\nThere were a few bits that were very far fetched, e.g. driving a car backwards at a very high speed and blending into a thin crowd when hundreds of cops were after him but this didn't spoil the fun.\nMy favourite part was when the old guy said, \"sock it\", don't worry, this knowledge won't spoil the film for you.\nA few bits were a bit too 'boyish' for me, e.g. choosing to fight with hands when the gun he was already holding would have done the job a lot faster.\nConclusion: watch. This is definitely one to be seen in a cinema.",

        "raw_content": "Stan Garcia \u00b7 September 6, 2016\nI may have misjudged the appropriateness of this film for an 8yo girl. Although the movie was made for a younger audience, I would say that 13-14 would be about the right age. There are some middle fingers, safe sex talk, lots of shits, god-damns, and what would later lead to a very uncomfortable discussion about \"What is a period?\". The movie itself was made for fans of the SmodCo Nation, filled to the brim with audio/visual gags. Referencing discussions from Edumacation, Smodcast, and Hollywood Babble On. Fans of the latter will be pleasantly surprised by the facial embodiment of Ralph \u201cGarmie\u201d Garman\u2019s most popular impressions.\nI feel that the pacing may have suffered some, due to the dialogue and still frame mash up\u2019s. It\u2019s great to see a veteran director trying new techniques, but these would have benefited from the consultation of the Suicide Squad intro scene editor. The music and color schemes feel very similar, and both have kick ass female protagonist. The music feels a little muted in the film, especially in scenes that could have used some face melting, microwave exploding, Canadian rock.\nUnfortunately I fear that some of the greatest Canadian parody jokes since Strange Brew, may be lost on the targeted American Teen audience. Although Once this film finds its target audience I feel that it is sure to become a cult classic. For SmodCo fans, this is well worth the price of admission, and if you have kids in the 13 to 14 age range this is a great way to share your love of SmodCo with your kids. In short this is an original movie that is surely lacking in the current Hollywood sea of biopics, remakes, and sequels. If we as movie goers want more originality in our theaters we need to support more of these original films.\nTags: kevin smith, smodco, edumacation, comic books, yogahoser, review, movie",

        "raw_content": "March 17, 2015 prolog\tComments Off on Investing in the future of your business with eco-friendly changes to your process\nMaking money is considered the ultimate goal of any successful business; this approach treats the eco-friendliness of the business as an issue that is unconnected to the basic purpose of the business. Conventionally, businesses followed green policies and environmentally-friendly strategies, provided such policies and strategies did not hurt overall profitability.\nToday, businesses are realizing that simply ignoring environmental factors is not a sustainable approach, and that such a strategy shall, sooner or later, affect the very existence of commercial enterprises. Hence, your strategy towards future business development should include a shift to eco-friendly policies that facilitate profitable operations in a sustainable manner.\nPlanning for a green future\nRunning a business that is in sync with the natural environment is not something that can be achieved through mere gestures or stunts. Just as cost reduction and profit maximization require a holistic approach towards each and every aspect of the firm\u2019s operations, becoming a green business too requires a fundamental change in mindset.\nHow to reduce the environmental pollution caused by hundreds of employees traveling to the office on a daily basis? Go beyond time-tested solutions such as carpooling or tree plantation activities in the factory. Can you use enterprise-level cloud computing, mobile conferencing, smartphones and tablets, and a new work culture to implement a work-from-home policy for your employees?\nInstead of inviting potential employees for personal interviews, how about relying on mobile conferencing solutions to conduct virtual interviews? Can you combine modern energy storage solutions with solar or wind power generation technologies to switch to green energy for your business? New technologies can help you overcome traditional challenges involved in running an eco-friendly business. The important thing is to get rid of your defeatist mindset.\nRunning a social media poll and inviting people located all over the world to offer suggestions to make your business greener without impairing profitability can be a great branding exercise that can help you get useful tips and innovative ideas. Along with funding and recruitment, you can use crowdsourcing to become an environment-friendly business as well.\nAnother smart option is to rely on the advice and opinions of experts who specialize in helping businesses strike the right balance between the environment and profitability. There was a time when opting for an eco-friendly fuel meant switching to solar or wind energy. Today, you can opt for natural gas, shale gas, shale oil, and many other new-age eco-friendly sources of energy.\nShale gas development has the potential to help your business get rid of its dependence on coal without compromising on operational efficiency. Experts such as Daniel Yergin have conducted numerous studies and researches on unconventional energy sources that go beyond nuclear, solar, and wind power. Relying on the scholarly work of such experts can help you conduct a technical and scientific assessment of the general viability of such fuels along with its suitability for your business in particular.\nRecent surveys have shown that most people are ambivalent towards new energy sources such as shale gas simply due to a lack of knowledge. Instead of planning the future of your business on vague hunches, you should combine modern technology with the knowledge and expertise of specialists such as Daniel Yergin to take an informed decision.",

        "raw_content": "Lawyer Jock Smith profiled for Ford Freedom Award\nTuesday, April 12th, 2011 by Sam Robards\nNewSouth Books would like to congratulate Jock Smith, author of Climbing Jacob\u2019s Ladder: A Trial Lawyer\u2019s Journey on Behalf of \u201cthe Least of These\u201d for being profiled by this year\u2019s annual Ford Freedom Award Program.\nThe Ford Freedom Award Program is a collaboration between the Ford Motor Company Fund and Community Service, the Charles H. Wright Museum of African-American History, and others to honor African Americans that have made lasting contributions to American life. This year\u2019s award program, titled \u201cChampions of Justice: African Americans in the Law,\u201d focused on African American achievements in the American legal system.\nSmith will be profiled along with other African American legal figures in a sixteen-page student supplement that will be disseminated to requesting schools. An excerpt from Smith\u2019s profile reads:\nSmith was born in New York City in 1948. At Tuskegee University, he was on the track and baseball teams and vice president of student government and graduated with high honors. On academic scholarship, he went to the University of Notre Dame Law School and founded the school\u2019s chapter of the Black American Law Students\u2019 Association.\nAfter he earned his law degree, he became a legal advisor to the NAACP\u2019s Civil Rights Project in Broome County, New York, where he worked with low-income clients.\nWith the late Johnnie Cochran, he cofounded one of the nation\u2019s most prominent legal firms.\nClimbing Jacob\u2019s Ladder: A Trial Lawyer\u2019s Journey on Behalf of \u201cthe Least of These,\u201d by Jock Smith, is available from NewSouth Books, Amazon, or your favorite local or online book retailer.\nRheta Grimsley Johnson writes \u201cOn Faith\u201d in Washington Post\n\u201cThe one belief I never revealed in three decades-plus was my disbelief,\u201d writes syndicated newspaper columnist and NewSouth author Rheta Grimsley Johnson in a March 28 guest-post on the Washington Post \u201cOn Faith\u201d blog; Johnson would later talk about religion in her memoir Enchanted Evening Barbie and the Second Coming. \u201cI figured that straw for a Bible Belt columnist would be the last. I never said I did believe. But I never said I did not. It was a sin of omission.\u201d\nJohnson describes how she had kept her \u201cdisbelief\u201d secret for years, for fear of alienating her readers. After the death of her husband Don, however, Johnson said she grew \u201cfearless\u201d enough to make her opinions known.\n\u201cThe year of my husband\u2019s death, I somehow finished a memoir I\u2019d already begun for NewSouth Books, a Montgomery, Ala., publishing house,\u201d Johnson continues. \u201cEnchanted Evening Barbie and the Second Coming for the first time made clear my position on faith and religion. No bones. No hedges. I finished the manuscript in September, 2009, and waited a little nervously for its release in March of 2010. How would my regular readers, the ones who for so long had indulged my liberal politics and feminist rants, react to this ultimate departure from Southern mores?\u201d\nIn the year that followed, Johnson describes, she received mixed responses to her revelations in the book; often those she expected to be shocked were not, and those she hadn\u2019t expect to be were. Her fear of speaking about religious issues might have been unfounded, she notes, though she remains unsure if she would have faced editorial pressure not to potentially offend readers.\nRead Rheta Grimsley Johnson\u2019s full essay, \u201cMy belief system? Disbelief,\u201d at the Washington Post \u201cOn Faith\u201d blog.

Now, Shlemiel Crooks and a number of Olswanger\u2019s other stories will actually be set to music, as a new Shlemiel Crooks musical comes to the stage. Shlemiel Crooks: The Musical, directed by Wendy Gross Baker, premieres April 10 at the Merkin Concert Hall in New York, featuring the hall\u2019s professional Poppy Seed Players troupe.\nShlemiel Crooks tells the story of a stalwart community\u2019s effort to keep the ghost of Pharaoh from ruining Passover; the new musical will debut as the Poppy Seed Players\u2019 first Passover play, similar to their annual Purim show. Olswanger told the New Jersey Jewish Standard that working with the musical\u2019s scriptwriters was \u201cnot really hard. I was lucky. These are good people. The goal is to have a fun musical for kids.\u201d\nOlswanger recently wrote about the origins of Shlemiel Crooks on the JewishGen blog. In her essay \u201cGenealogy: The Gift of Stories,\u201d Olswanger writes about how a desire to hear again the stories of her late father lead her to genealogical research. A Yiddish newspaper article about bumbling crooks trying to steal her great-grandfather\u2019s Passover wine became the basis for Shlemiel Crooks, which received rejections from over one-hundred publishers before being accepted by NewSouth, and going on become a Sydney Taylor Honor Book, a Koret International Jewish Book Award Finalist, and a PJ Library Book, along with a musical and puppet show.\n\u201cBest of all,\u201d Olswanger writes, \u201cShlemiel Crooks allowed me to pay tribute to my great-grandparents. Although I don\u2019t have my own children to give their story to as a gift, the way my father gave his stories to me as gifts, I can give the story of my great-grandparents to any child who reads or hears Shlemiel Crooks.\u201d\nAlso on the JewishGen blog, Toby Bird reviews Shlemiel Crooks, calling it \u201cvibrant.\u201d\n\u201cThe period details are quite wonderful,\u201d Bird notes. \u201cIt\u2019s as if we\u2019re listening, not reading. In fact the story begs to be read aloud. Enhancing the animated narration are the colorful drawings by Paula Goodman Koz, many of them full-page.\u201d\nRead Anna Olswanger\u2019s \u201cGenealogy\u201d essay and Toby Bird\u2019s review at the JewishGen blog.

Romo's availability for Sunday night's play-in showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles remains in doubt, though the Cowboys have yet to rule him out.\n\"Continuing to go through the process with Tony,\" Cowboys coach Jason Garrett told reporters Thursday. \"Just see how he feels every day waking up and evaluate him and treat him and see how he responds to it as much as anything else.\"\nRomo did not take part in Thursday's practice, but Garrett said the team has no \"hard and fast rules\" in terms of practice participation and availability on game day.\n\"Certainly you want your quarterback to practice at some point during the week,\" he said. \"Tony's obviously played a lot of football for us so you would give him more leeway than most. But more than anything else it's just a health issue and see how he's feeling.\"\nThe insinuation is clear: Romo doesn't have to practice this week to play Sunday. This still has the feel of a pipe dream, but the denizens of Jerrah World haven't given up hope.\nThe latest \"Around The League Podcast\" delivered a Christmas gift, analyzing the chaotic playoff picture in both conferences.",

        "raw_content": "NRDC sues EPA to force action on monarch butterflies\nThe Natural Resources Defense Council has accused the Environmental Protection Agency of dragging its feet on efforts to save the imperiled monarch butterfly and filed suit to force the agency to act.\nEPA\u2019s failure to respond to an urgent petition that sought to limit the use of a pesticide that\u2019s been destroying monarch habitat, filed more than a year ago by NRDC, has resulted in \u201csignificant ongoing harm\u201d to the vulnerable butterfly population, according to the suit, filed in the U.S. District Court in New York City.\n\u201cThe longer EPA delays, the greater the risk we could lose the monarch migration,\u201d said Dr. Sylvia Fallon, an NRDC senior scientist and director of its Wildlife Conservation Project, in a statement.\nThe monarch butterfly, a North American species that makes a 2,500 mile annual migration from the mountains of central Mexico to Canada and back, has been in serious decline for 15 years. Once numbering as many as a billion, only 56.5 million of the orange-and-black winged pollinators were counted last month at their Mexican refuge, the second lowest total ever.\nExperts say the primary cause for the population collapse is the use of the herbicide glyphosate on genetically modified corn and soybeans, which has wiped out much of the milkweed \u2014 a native wildflower \u2014 that monarchs need to survive. Since EPA last reviewed the safety of glyphosate in 1993, its use has increased ten-fold, yet the agency has never considered the herbicide\u2019s impact on monarchs.\nNRDC filed an urgent petition last February with EPA, asking for an immediate review of glyphosate and its impact on monarchs and for measures to limit the harm the chemical is causing to the species. EPA has failed to respond to the petition, and given no public explanation for its silence. Today\u2019s suit seeks a court order to force EPA to respond to the petition.\nA copy of the suit is here: http://docs.nrdc.org/wildlife/wil_15022701.asp.\nLabels: Environmental Protection Agency, Monarch, Natural Resources Defense Council",

The awards nite which took place recently at Intercontinental Hotel, Lagos was indeed, a melting-pot of clients, agencies and creative minds who gathered to celebrate the very best in Nigeria\u2019s creative industry. Tagged \u201cIt\u2019s a Gr8 LAIF\u201d this year\u2019s LAIF awards also doubled as the grand finale of the 40thanniversary of the AAAN celebrations. Continue...\nJust like the globally acclaimed Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, LAIF was instituted in 2006 by AAAN to identify, reward and foster creative excellence in all areas of advertising in Nigeria. The award has become a yardstick for evaluating the very best of advertising agencies and their creative works in Nigeria.\nThis year, a total of 21 agencies participated in the Awards and competed for Gold, Silver and Bronze in the four main categories; press, outdoor, radio and television.\nThe major highlight of this year\u2019s awards was the dominance of Insight Communications creative works across all platforms. Despite the competitiveness of the awards and the quality of entries made by agencies, creative powerhouse, Insight yet again blazed the trail by becoming the most awarded agency in this year\u2019s award for the second year running. According to the medals table released by AAAN, Insight carted away a total number of 26 medals - (4 Gold, 8 Silver and 14 Bronze) to emerge overall winner of the 2013 LAIF awards.\nThe night indeed belonged to the management and clients of Insight Communications as they excelled in almost all the categories they was nominated. Analysts have pointed out that the agency\u2019s supremacy in the awards is a vindication of it truly being a formidable force in the advertising landscape. It would be recalled that last year, the agency won 25 awards \u2013 (4 Gold, 10 Silver and 11 Bronze) to beat other competing agencies.\nOne outstanding fact about the 2013 LAIF award was the excellent performance of materials created for brands in the public sector. An excellent example at last week\u2019s LAIF was the creative work produced by Insight Communication for Lagos State Signage & Advertisement Agency (LASAA). It was exceptionally celebrated at the awards night. Mr. George Noah, Managing Director of LASAA expressed happiness that his agency was part of such a remarkable occurrence in the history of Nigeria\u2019s advertising.\nCommenting on the recent milestones achieved by the agency, Sam Osunsoko, Associate Director, Account Management at Insight Communications, revealed that the achievement was humbling. He said, \u201cThis endorsement from the advertising industry, stakeholders, brands and consumers make us to be more humble. Going forward, this feat is also a way to discourage us from resting on our oars and do greater works. But more importantly, great power comes with great responsibility. As an organisation, it is a call to higher responsibilities\u201d\nLindaIkejiBlog",

        "raw_content": "This 2016 photo shows the northbound Meadowbrook State Parkway at EXIT M2 (Zeckendorf Boulevard) in East Garden City. (Photo by Steve Anderson.)\nNY 908E\nA SECOND ROUTE TO JONES BEACH: Since opening in 1929, Jones Beach State Park, which was named after an Irish immigrant and privateer who established a whaling station in the area in 1692, has been an immensely popular recreational destination for families. By 1931, summer weekends were recording attendance numbers of 100,000 people per day. The four-lane Wantagh State Parkway, which at the time was the only route leading to Jones Beach, was becoming inadequate to serve beach traffic. To alleviate Jones Beach-bound traffic, the Meadowbrook State Parkway was constructed.\nConstruction of the Meadowbrook State Parkway began in earnest in 1932, and included the construction of the Loop Parkway spur to Point Lookout. This initial four-mile-long section from Jones Beach north to EXIT M9 (Merrick Road) in Freeport opened in the fall of 1934. It originally featured two 24-foot, two-lane roadways separated by an 18-foot-wide grassed median. The causeway leading to Jones Beach was constructed on hydraulic fill over marsh and islands across the bay on lands donated to the state by the Town of Hempstead.\nBecause of the depressed economic conditions at the time, the Long Island State Park Commission (LISPC) borrowed the $5 million cost of construction from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC), a Federal-level New Deal agency.\nPARKWAY EXTENSIONS: In 1935, the Meadowbrook State Parkway was extended 2.8 miles north to the Southern State Parkway in North Merrick. This section was constructed by the New York State Department of Public Works (NYSDPW) and was separately financed. The roadway design was the same as that featured on the initial section.\nOne year later, Moses released plans for an extension of the Meadowbrook State Parkway north to the Northern State Parkway in Carle Place. Although land for the right-of-way had been acquired by Nassau County, construction of the parkway was delayed by the depression and World War II.\nIn the early 1950's, officials from the NYSDPW considered construction of a north-south expressway between Freeport and Roslyn. After encountering opposition along the route, officials backed away from this idea, deciding instead to build a parkway along the existing Meadowbrook right-of-way between the Northern State and Southern State parkways.\nThe Meadowbrook State Parkway extension, built by the NYSDPW and financed by Jones Beach State Parkway Authority bonds, was completed in 1956. It was constructed with two 24-foot-wide roadways, each carrying two lanes of traffic, and a 29-foot-wide median to separate the two roadways. The bridges separating grades were constructed to permit the future widening of the parkway from four to six lanes.\nWIDENING PROJECTS: The popularity of Jones Beach continued to grow in the postwar era, and to meet the demand, the LISPC widened the Meadowbrook State Parkway from four to six lanes south of EXIT M6 (Southern State Parkway). This widening, which was financed by Jones Beach State Parkway Authority bonds, took place between 1955 and 1965.\nThe postwar era also brought rapid development in the \"Nassau Hub\" (Roosevelt Field and Mitchel Field) area, prompting officials to widen the remainder of the Meadowbrook State Parkway between the Southern State Parkway in North Merrick and the Northern State Parkway in Carle Place. During this project, the existing two-lane roadways were expanded to three 12-foot-wide lanes in each direction, and by doing so, the grassed median was narrowed from 29 feet to five feet. With the reduction of median space caused by the widening, cable-reinforced timber guide rail was installed to prevent accidental center mall crossings. New collector-distributor (C/D) roads were also constructed to serve Mitchel Field and the new Nassau Coliseum. (The Glen Curtiss Boulevard overpass in Uniondale hints at a possible future southern extension of the C/D roads.) This expansion project was completed in 1971.\nThis photo shows the Meadowbrook State Parkway looking south toward the Fundy Channel Bridge and the Loop Parkway not long after it opened in 1934. (Photo supplied by Steven Waldman.)\nPRESENT IMPROVEMENTS: In 1977, maintenance of the Meadowbrook State Parkway was transferred from the LISPC to the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT), although ownership remained under the jurisdiction of the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (NYSOPRHP). To accommodate the increase in traffic volume and speed, and to address the accident history, the NYSDOT began to modify the parkway in accordance with Federal and state traffic safety guidelines.\nIn 1978, one year after the parkways were transferred from the LISPC to the NYSDOT, tolls were removed for motorists using the Meadowbrook Causeway in the area of Jones Beach.\nFor many years, the substandard interchange between the Meadowbrook State Parkway and the Northern State Parkway was the site of many accidents. From the westbound Northern State Parkway, one had to make a \"U-turn\" onto the eastbound lanes (using EXIT 31 / Glen Cove Road) in order to get onto the southbound Meadowbrook Parkway. After two decades of community debate and several years of reconstruction, the interchange between the two parkway, which featured new, wider main roadways and direct ramps, was completed in 1992.\nDuring the late 1980s and early 1990s, new MUTCD-compliant signs and high-intensity lighting were installed along the parkway from Merrick Road north to the Northern State Parkway. More modern safety measures such as concrete (\"Jersey\") barriers and sand-filled impact attenuators replaced existing safety measures.\nMost of these improvements, however, have occurred north of the Southern State Parkway. This is because the section of the Meadowbrook State Parkway south of the Southern State Parkway is designated as a \"Robert Moses National Register Parkway.\" In this segment, many facets of the original parkway design, including the guardrails and landscaping, are protected. The new lighting fixtures (installed in 2001) south of EXIT M9 (Merrick Road) are replicas of the original wooden lightposts, but reflect modern design standards.\nAccording to the NYSDOT, the Meadowbrook State Parkway handles approximately 125,000 vehicles per day (AADT) between the Northern State and Southern State parkways, approximately 75,000 vehicles per day from the Southern State Parkway south to EXIT M9 (Merrick Road), and approximately 30,000 vehicles per day south of Merrick Road. In 1998, the parkway was ceremonially renamed the \"Norman Levy Memorial Parkway\" after the passing of the long-serving state senator remembered for transportation issues.\nCURRENT AND FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS: The NYSDOT and the New York Metropolitan Transportation Council outlined the following improvements to the Meadowbrook State Parkway:\n$5.4 million rehabilitation of the Meadowbrook Causeway between the Fundy Creek Bridge and the Sloop Channel Bridge, including the area of EXIT M10 (Loop Parkway) and the Jones Beach fee booth plaza; completed in 2001.\n$14 million extension of the northbound C/D (collector-distributor) road from EXIT M4 (NY 24) north to EXIT M3 (Stewart Avenue and Merchants Concourse); project postponed.\n$69 million reconstruction of the interchange between the Meadowbrook State and Southern State parkways.\nLonger-term measures also have been planned to deal with the increase in traffic. In 1990, the Long Island Regional Planning Board comprehensive highway plan called for the expansion from six to ten lanes between the Northern State and Southern State parkways. A decade later, the NYSDOT scaled back the 1990 plans, and instead called for the construction of HOV lanes between the Northern State and Southern State parkways.\nThe Meadowbrook State Parkway HOV lanes are expected to handle the new \"Long Island Rapid Commute\" (LIRC) vehicles envisioned by the \"LITP 2000\" plan. According to the NYSDOT, the LIRC articulated vehicles would travel on dedicated new and existing HOV lanes on controlled-access highways, as well as on existing arterial roads.\nThis 2001 photo shows the southbound Meadowbrook State Parkway at EXIT M10 (Loop Parkway), just before the fee booths for Jones Beach State Park. The NYSDOT installed the \"new-generation woodie\" lightposts during the spring of 2001 as part of a parkway rehabilitation project. (Photo by David J. Greenberger.)\nThe Meadowbrook State Parkway should be widened between the Northern State Parkway and the Southern State Parkway. This can be done in one of two ways:\nExpansion of the main roadway from six to eight general-use lanes.\nExtension of the C/D (collector-distributor) roads north to EXIT M1 (Old Country Road). That is, the existing C/D roads that serve the Mitchel Field area should be extended north to serve the Roosevelt Field area.\nIn both cases, interchange improvements should be implemented as required to improve safety and traffic flow.\nSOURCES: \"New Highways Across Long Island To Link North and South Shores,\" The New York Times (11/15/1936); The Power Broker by Robert A.

The ruling say's that Congress has the power to pass this requirement to require people to pay a penalty if they do not have health insurance under their taxing power.\nThe historic 5-4 decision will affect the way Americans receive and pay for their personal medical care. It upholds the individual mandate that most Americans get health insurance or pay a penalty -- and it was the penalty, or tax, that ultimately saved the law.\n\"Because the Constitution permits such a tax, it is not our role to forbid it, or to pass upon its wisdom or fairness,\" wrote Roberts.\nWhat the Health Ruling Means for Consumers\n06/28/12 Wall Street Journal video - What changes can consumers and insurers expect to see in the wake of the Supreme Court's health ruling?\nSupreme Court Finds Fault With Medicaid Expansion\n06/28/12 - The Supreme Court found one part of the health-care law unconstitutional, saying its expansion of the federal-state Medicaid program\nthreatened states' existing funding.\nObamacare's Impact on Doctors\n06/28/12 - Dr. Martha Boone, an Atlanta urologist, explains the consequences\nof the new health care law. Because of her fears about Obamacare,\nBoone moved to a less-expensive office so she could avoid dropping\nMedicare patients or laying off an employee.\nTaxation: The high bench has confirmed that ObamaCare's individual mandate is a massive tax on the American middle class. But let's not forget the 20 other new taxes that are embedded in the law.\nThough President Obama never sold it as a tax hike, the Supreme Court ruled the mandate is exactly that. Unfortunately, the majority argued it's legal under Congress' taxing authority.\nForcing citizens to buy health insurance \"is absolutely not a tax increase,\" Obama insisted in 2009. Earlier, he assured the public that raising taxes on the middle class to support his health care plan was \"the last thing we need in an economy like this.\" \"Folks are already having a tough enough time,\" Obama added.\nIndeed they are. But his plan, which subsidizes some 30 million uninsured, amounts to a $1.8 trillion whammy on working families. And that's just for starters.\nThe court was silent about the 20 other different taxes hidden in ObamaCare, more than half of which affect families earning less than $250,000 a year.\nThe new taxes, which cost some $675 billion over the next decade, include:\n\u2022 A 2.3% excise tax on U.S. sales of medical devices that's already devastating the medical supply industry and its workforce. The levy is a $20 billion blow to an industry that employs roughly 400,000.\nSeveral major manufacturers have been roiled, including: Michigan-based Stryker Corp., which blames the tax for 1,000 layoffs; Indiana-based Zimmer Corp., which cites the tax in laying off 450 and taking a $50 million charge against earnings; Indiana-based Cook Medical Inc., which has scrubbed plans to open a U.S. factory; Minnesota-based Medtronic Inc., which expects an annual charge against earnings of $175 million, and Boston Scientific Corp., which has opted to open plants in tax-friendlier Ireland and China to help offset a $100 million charge against earnings.\n\u2022 A 3.8% surtax on investment income from capital gains and dividends that applies to single filers earning more than $200,000 and married couples filing jointly earning more than $250,000.\n\u2022 A $50,000 excise tax on charitable hospitals that fail to meet new \"community health assessment needs,\" \"financial assistance\" and other rules set by the Health and Human Services Dept.\n\u2022 A $24 billion tax on the paper industry to control a pollutant known as black liquor.\n\u2022 A $2.3 billion-a-year tax on drug companies.\n\u2022 A 10% excise tax on indoor tanning salons.\n\u2022 An $87 billion hike in Medicare payroll taxes for employees, as well as the self-employed.\n\u2022 A hike in the threshold for writing off medical expenses to 10% of adjusted gross income from 7.5%.\n\u2022 A new cap on flexible spending accounts of $2,500 a year.\n\u2022 Elimination of the tax deduction for employer-provided prescription drug coverage for Medicare recipients.\n\u2022 An income surtax of 1% of adjusted gross income, rising to 2.5% by 2016, on individuals who refuse to go along with ObamaCare by buying a policy not OK'd by the government.\n\u2022 A $2,000 tax charged to employers with 50 or more workers for every full-time worker not offered health coverage.\n\u2022 A $60 billion tax on health insurers.\n\u2022 A 40% excise tax on so-called Cadillac, or higher cost, health insurance plans.\nAll told, there are 21 new or higher taxes imposed by Obama's health care law \u2014 and 21 more reasons to repeal it.\nThis article appeared on the Investors.com website on June, 28, 2012\nFull List of Obamacare Tax Hike | Affordable Care Act Tax Hike\nObamacare law contains 20 new or higher taxes on American families and small businesses.\nGreat List and Charts, follow the link below:\nFull List - Obamacare law contains 20 new or higher taxes on American families and small businesses",

        "raw_content": "Fri, 1/24/2014 - by Nick Buxton\nTwo years after Occupy gave voice to popular anger at inequality, the issue of the 1% continues to top the political agenda. At times, though, this takes a very incongruous form, and no more so than this week when multi-millionaires on their annual $100,000 pilgrimage to Davos declared income disparity as their number one concern.\nThe World Economic Forum even seemed to welcome admonishment from the Pope and Oxfam with Klaus Schwab, the executive chairman, agreeing that \u201cwe have too large a disparity in the world\u201d and \u201cneed more inclusiveness.\u201d\nBut there was one admonishment that those at WEF were not willing to listen to: the challenge to their assumption that they should decide on global issues. The concentration of wealth, highlighted by Oxfam\u2019s report that 85 of the richest people own the same wealth as half the world\u2019s population, is only part of the picture.\nThe bigger issue is the concentration of power that arises from and generates further wealth concentration. Addressing this will mean questioning the very existence of Davos and the way it has fostered and encouraged policies that have entrenched corporate rule and elite power in recent decades.\nA new report published this week by the Transnational Institute entitled State of Power \u2013 Exposing the Davos Class, makes clear that the widening gulf between rich and poor is closely tied to an economic system that has given corporations unprecedented influence over policy making, and enshrined rights for corporations that supersede human rights.\nToday, 37 of the world\u2019s largest economies are corporations. Walmart, Shell, Volkswagen and others have become modern-day empires, bigger economically than Denmark, Israel or Singapore. And when you examine who owns these corporations, the power gets even more concentrated \u2013 with 1% of businesses, just 147 companies, controlling the shares of more than 40% of the world\u2019s transnational corporations.\nCorporations have been able to achieve this power through a systematic takeover of the state, rather like a virus infects a body. Driven by a profit-making motive embedded in their genetic makeup, corporations have sought at every stage to remove barriers and facilitate their cancerous growth. The result has been trade deals that allow corporations to sue states but give no legal recourse to states, as legislation drafted by corporate lawyers \u2013 and approved in Europe, the U.S. and elsewhere \u2013 consumed whatever influence was left among thinktanks, media outlets and cultural institutions.\nThe infection has been so effective, and thorough, that it is increasingly difficult to assess who is a public official and who is a corporate leader, given the revolving door between these positions.\nusa-wallstreet-protests.jpg\nOne example covered in TNI\u2019s report is the European Round Table of Industrialists, a network of about 50 of Europe\u2019s largest corporations, which in the early 1980s decided to work together to shape EU policy and encourage the development of a competitive (read: deregulated) \u201cinternal market.\u201d\nBy 1993, the group had been so successful that one senior ERT official said their proposals and the EU\u2019s proposals were almost done in \u201cparallel \u2026. we saw their drafts and they saw our drafts. And one of my friends, a very senior official in the Commission, he said to me, there is basically no difference between them.\u201d More recently, ERT\u2019s demands for \u201cfiscal consolidation\u201d \u2013 in other words, austerity for ordinary people but clearly not for corporations which took bailouts \u2013 have been wholeheartedly applied by European governments and the European Commission with terrible social costs.\nYet, rather than seek to tackle these vested interests and address the root causes of inequality and social injustice, the World Economic Forum seeks to strengthen them. The Forum proudly proclaims it is run by its members who \u201ccomprise 1,000 of the world\u2019s top corporations... with more than $5 billion in turnover. These enterprises rank among the top companies within their industry and play a leading role in shaping the future of their industry and region.\u201d\nIt shouldn\u2019t be forgotten that the idea for the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) between Mexico, the U.S. and Canada germinated at Davos. The result, as we know 20 years later, is a toxic legacy of sweatshops, environmental contamination, high poverty levels and violence that has wracked Mexico.\nMoreover, a look at the prominent corporate members of Davos quickly unveils a history of fraud, tax evasion, human rights abuses and environmental degradation \u2013 none of which, it seems, disqualifies them from having open access to Davos and governments worldwide.\nInstead of questioning corporations\u2019 accountability or their impact, Klaus Schwab claims corporations should be given an even greater role in deciding public policy. In a Foreign Affairs article in 2008, he argued for \u201cglobal corporate citizenship,\u201d saying that companies \u201care themselves stakeholders alongside governments and civil society.\u201d\nSchwab states that the world\u2019s complex problems are best dealt with through multi-stakeholderism \u2013 in other words, transnational corporations along with a few powerful governments, carefully selected \"thought leaders\" and invited members of \"civil society.\" The power balance of this multi-stakeholderism is evident in the mix represented at Davos \u2013 a theoretical working model for the global governance toward which Davos aspires. This year, while some 1,500 business delegates attend, there are only 37 NGO leaders (mainly from large NGOs) and 10 labor leaders.\nBut thanks to powerful political backers, Schwab\u2019s proposition for a corporate-led governance is gaining traction. In 2009, taking advantage of the global crisis, WEF launched the Global Redesign Initiative (GRI) aiming \u201cto stimulate a strategic thought process among all stakeholders about ways in which international institutions and arrangements should be adapted to contemporary challenges.\u201d\nIts final report advocates a stakeholder approach in every aspect of public policy. It rejects intergovernmental agreements, international frameworks, enforceable hard law that would constrain corporations, favoring instead voluntarism, codes of conduct and soft law. The theme of this year\u2019s WEF, \u201cThe Reshaping of the World,\u201d clearly builds on this proposal.\nThe attempts at Davos to further concentrate political power takes us completely in the wrong direction for tackling today\u2019s social and ecological crises. As Susan George notes, \u201cDemocracy has in no way kept up with the pace of globalization; whether nationally or internationally, authority is exercised without the consent of the governed.\u201d\nDavos portrays itself as the forward-thinking, enlightened, socially responsive side of business \u2013 but is, at its core, part of of the problem and not the solution. While its members have been forced to address inequality thanks to the power of popular movements emerging worldwide, the ongoing actions of those members are entrenching inequality. Last year, the wealth of the world\u2019s millionaires grew by 11 percent while it stagnated, and fell, for the rest of us.\nAnd that is why it will require popular movements to fundamentally challenge the political as well as economic power of the Davos class before that trend can be expected to change.\ngty_income_inequality_131209_16x9_1600.jpg\nTransnational InstituteDavosWorld Economic Forumwealth inequalitySusan GeorgeDavos classNAFTAEuropean Round Table of IndustrialistsOxfam",

Henty \u00bb By England's Aid or The Freeing of the Netherlands (1585-1604) \u00bb Preface.\nMY DEAR LADS,\nIn my preface to By Pike and Dyke I promised in a future story to deal with the closing events of the War of Independence in Holland. The period over which that war extended was so long, and the incidents were so numerous and varied, that it was impossible to include the whole within the limit of a single book. The former volume brought the story of the struggle down to the death of the Prince of Orange and the capture of Antwerp; the present gives the second phase of the war, when England, who had long unofficially assisted Holland, threw herself openly into the struggle, and by her aid mainly contributed to the successful issue of the war. In the first part of the struggle the scene lay wholly among the low lands and cities of Holland and Zeeland, and the war was strictly a defensive one, waged against overpowering odds. After England threw herself into the strife it assumed far wider proportions, and the independence of the Netherlands was mainly secured by the defeat and destruction of the great Armada, by the capture of Cadiz and the fatal blow thereby struck at the mercantile prosperity of Spain, and by the defeat of the Holy League by Henry of Navarre, aided by English soldiers and English gold. For the facts connected with the doings of Sir Francis Vere and the British contingent in Holland, I have depended much upon the excellent work by Mr. Clement Markham entitled the Fighting Veres. In this full justice is done to the great English general and his followers, and it is conclusively shown that some statements to the disparagement of Sir Francis Vere by Mr. Motley are founded upon a misconception of the facts. Sir Francis Vere was, in the general opinion of the time, one of the greatest commanders of the age, and more, perhaps, than any other man with the exception of the Prince of Orange contributed to the successful issue of the struggle of Holland to throw off the yoke of Spain.",

        "raw_content": "An Animated Introduction to Stoicism, the Ancient Greek Philosophy That Lets You Lead a Happy, Fulfilling Life\nin Philosophy | June 28th, 2017 1 Comment\nForever known, it seems, as keeping a \u201cstiff upper lip,\u201d Stoicism\u2014like its predecessor, Cynicism\u2014is an ancient school of Greek philosophy that has been reduced into an attitude, a pose rather than a way of life. \u201cWe do this to our philosophies,\u201d writes Lary Wallace at Aeon, \u201cWe redraft their contours based on projected shadows, or give them a cartoonish shape like a caricaturist emphasizing all the wrong features.\u201d We do this especially to schools as obscure to most people as Stoicism and Cynicism.\n\u201cIn reality,\u201d however, writes Massimo Pigliucci at The Stone, \u201cpracticing Stoicism is not really that different from, say, practicing Buddhism (or even certain forms of modern Christianity): it is a mix of reflecting on theoretical precepts, reading inspirational texts, and engaging in meditation, mindfulness, and the like.\u201d Would the ancient Stoics have agreed with this assessment? In the short TED-Ed lesson above, written by Pigliucci and animated by Compote Collective, we learn about Zeno of Cyprus, \u201cstranded miles from home, with no money or possessions.\u201d\nDestitute and \u201cshipwrecked in Athens around 300 BCE,\u201d the once-wealthy merchant discovered Socrates, and decided to \u201cseek out and study with the city\u2019s noted philosophers.\u201d Zeno then taught his own students the principles of \u201cvirtue, tolerance, and self-control\u201d that underlie Stoic philosophy (called so for \u201cthe porch (stoa poikil\u00ea) in the Agora at Athens\u201d where the group congregated). Although the ability to remain calm and composed in a crisis\u2014the quality most associated with Stoicism\u2014occupies a prominent place in Stoic thought, it is centrally concerned with two questions.\nAs the site 99u puts it, Stoics ask: \u201c1. How can we lead a fulfilling, happy life?\u201d and \u201c2. How can we become better human beings?\u201d In brief, we do so not by obeying or submitting to some kind of capricious divine will, but by attending to the rational structure of the universe, the Logos, an intricate web of cause and effect that determines the world as it is, not as we would like it to be. The Stoic cultivates four virtues\u2014Wisdom, Temperance, Justice, and Courage\u2014and the character recommended by Stoic philosophy makes it plain why Star Trek\u2019s Mr. Spock, as Pigliucci notes, was \u201cactually modeled after [Gene Roddenberry\u2019s]\u2014mistaken\u2014understanding of Stoicism.\u201d\nGiven Stoicism\u2019s concern with happiness and virtue, we might expect Alain de Botton\u2019s School of Life to be an advocate, and we would be right. In the animated introduction to Stoicism above, de Botton assures viewers \u201cyou need more of it in your life.\u201d Why? Because \u201clife is difficult,\u201d and Stoicism is \u201chelpful,\u201d for commoners and aristocrats alike. Indeed the most famous of Stoic philosophers, Marcus Aurelius, was Emperor of Rome from 161 to 180 CE. Considered one of the greatest works of ancient thought, Aurelius\u2019 Meditations is also perhaps one of the most accessible of philosophical texts.\nIn plain, straightforward language, the emperor-philosopher recommends a series of Greco-Roman virtues, and gives credit to his many teachers. In book two, he writes, \u201cWhy should any of these things that happen externally, so much distract thee? Give thyself leisure to learn some good thing, and cease roving and wandering to and fro. Thou must also take heed of another kind of wandering, for they are idle in their actions, who toil and labour in this life, and have no certain scope to which to direct all their motions, and desires.\u201d In other words, rather than suffering in courageous silence\u2014the caricature of Stoicism\u2014Aurelius distills much of its essence to this: \u201cDon\u2019t worry about what you can't control, find good work to do, and do it well and wisely.\u201d\nAlain de Botton\u2019s School of Life Presents Animated Introductions to Heidegger, The Stoics & Epicurus\nA Guide to Happiness: Alain de Botton Shows How Six Great Philosophers Can Change Your Life\nFree Courses in Ancient History, Literature & Philosophy\nJonas Salzgeber says:\nThis is great!

And if we think of the sounds of Apollo, what comes more quickly to mind \u2014 indeed, what sound in human history could come more quickly to mind \u2014 than Neil Armstrong's \"one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind\" line spoken on that same mission? But that's just one small piece of the total amount of audio recordings made during the Apollo program, which ran from the mid-1960s to the early 1970s. Now, with nearly 20,000 hours of them digitized, they've begun to be made available for listening and downloading at the Internet Archive.\n\"After the Apollo missions ended, most of the audio tapes eventually made their way to the National Archives and Records Administration building in College Park, Maryland,\" writes Astronomy's Catherine Meyers. But even after getting all the recordings in one place (easier said than done given the vast size of the archives in which they resided), a much larger challenge loomed.\n\"The existing tapes could be played only on a machine called a SoundScriber, a big beige and green contraption complete with vacuum tubes. NASA had two machines, but the first was cannibalized for parts to make the second one run.\"\nRefurbishing the very last SoundScriber to play these 30-track tapes required the help of a retired technician, and then the research team needed to \"play all 30 tracks at once to minimize the time required to digitize them, as well as to avoid damaging the almost 50-year-old tapes by playing them over and over.\" What with the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing approaching next summer \u2014 and with First Man, Damien Chazelle's biopic of Neil Armstrong currently in theaters \u2014 NASA has cleared that mission's audio recordings for public release.\nYou can listen to the Apollo 11 tapes directly at the Internet Archive, or you can make your way through them at Explore Apollo, a site designed by students at the University of Texas at Dallas that highlights the most historically significant of the thousands of hours of audio recorded during Apollo 11: not just Armstrong's first step, but the launch from Kennedy Space Center, the lunar landing itself, and the astronauts' walk on the moon's surface. But space exploration is about much more than astronauts, as you'll soon find out if you spend much time at the Internet Archive's collection of Apollo 11 recordings, on which appear not just Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins, but the hundreds and hundreds of other NASA personnel who made the moon landing possible.

        "raw_content": "The government is preparing a new regulation that it hopes will attract the private sector to light up remote villages that state-owned electricity company PLN has yet to touch.\nEnergy and Mineral Resources Minister Ignasius Jonan said that the ministry was currently drafting a regulation that would allow private companies to set up electrical grids in these remote villages and sell the electricity straight to the residents without having to go through PLN.\n\u201cSo, the private sector will be allowed to do this. We cannot just rely on PLN\u2019s abilities,\u201d he said recently.\nAlthough Indonesia recorded an electrification ratio of 88 percent last December, electrification was still centered in Java, while the eastern regions have remained in the dark.\nThe lack of electricity in the regions has been mostly blamed on poor infrastructure, which contributes to high transportation costs.\nEnergy and Mineral Resources Ministry electricity director general Jarman said that even though the privately-owned grids were separate from PLN\u2019s, they might eventually be interconnected in the future once PLN found economically feasible ways to do so.\nJarman said the government would still control the prices the private companies offered to locals to ensure that they would remain on par with or cheaper than those offered by PLN.\nFurthermore, residents that are eligible to receive subsidized electricity of 450 or 900 watts will still be able to receive it through the private grids, as required of the government by the Energy Law.\nAlthough no concrete regulations have been introduced yet, the ministry hopes that it will help procure electricity for around 2,500 villages across the nation, 2,376 of which are located in Papua and West Papua.\nPapua\u2019s electrification ratio currently stands at 45.93 percent only, while West Papua\u2019s is at 82.7 percent.\nPrivate investors looking to build the electricity grids will be asked to focus on developing grids that procure electricity from renewable energy sources, making the grids\u2019 capacity mostly small-scale.\nThe ministry has previously said a total investment of Rp 156.02 billion (US$11.64 million) and annual operating fees of Rp 191.9 billion would be needed to develop electricity in Papua and West Papua.\nMeanwhile, PLN president director Sofyan Basir said that the company had not been involved in any meetings on the formulation of the regulation. He said he doubted private investors would seriously consider setting up shop in the villages as the construction costs would be high.\n\u201cPLN spends around Rp 3,500 to Rp 4,000 per kilowatt hour [kWh], but only sells the electricity to the people for around Rp 400 [per kWh] because they are poor. Do you think the private sector would want to do something similar? They wouldn\u2019t be able to handle it, only those who are able to cross subsidy can,\u201d he said.\nInstitute for Essential Services Reform (IESR) executive director Fabby Tumiwa said that it was unlikely that the private companies would be able to sell their electricity for cheaper than what PLN was already selling in the region because of the lack of infrastructure and high transportation costs. He called on the government to make sure that they know how much locals can actually afford to pay due to their non-cash wealth.\n\u201cThis means that the investors have a much higher risk, so they will definitely be calculating every detail. The government will have to somehow ensure that the investors will get a return from their electricity sales in the region,\u201d he said.\nSource : http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2016/11/19/wanted-private-sector-to-electrify-remote-villages.html",

        "raw_content": "Sand & Finish / Install\nThis project was extremely complex as it included; splicing in 800 square feet of new 3\u201d red oak hardwood into 500 square feet of existing factory finished hardwood, installing a herringbone pattern with a border in the dining room, a picture frame around the fireplace, flush mount registers, installing new treads, risers, and a landing on the stairs, and sanding/finishing everything. I had to cut each piece of the herringbone to an exact length and route both ends. There ended up being over 300 pieces. That\u2019s a lot of work especially when you\u2019re doing it all by yourself!\nNational Wood Flooring Association (NWFA) courses; Intermediate Sand and Finish and Intermediate Installation\nThis was a tremendous project and such a positive impact on me as a hardwood professional. The idea was to create a floor with a traditional feeling. To achieve the traditional feeling we used traditional techniques. Hard maple trees from Thronville, Ohio were cut and processed with a bandsaw mill. The boards were taken to Holmes County, Ohio where they were turned into tongue and groove flooring measuring 8\", 7\", 6\", and 5\". The flooring was installed by blind nailing with the pneumatic nailer as well as replica 18th century cut nails installed by hand (over 1,000!).\nThe flooring was installed in completely random widths. There is no discernible pattern between the 8\", 7\", 6\", and 5\" boards. The cut nails were driven into the home's floor joists providing a tremendous amount of holding power. The floor was finished with a linseed oil and wax which added depth and helped to define the bandsaw marks. The color was selected to match existing wood work in the home. The floor completely transformed the home.\nThe maple was taken from the farm in Thornville to the lumber mill in Holmes County. The 1\" thick boards were planed down to 3/4\", squared, ripped to the appropriate width, and tongue and grooved. The mill did a great job.\nThe cut nails add such a neat touch. They were acquired through Tremont Nail Company in Mansfield, Massachusetts. Tremont operates out of the same nail manufacturing mill they first opened in 1819 and still uses some of the same equipment from the mid 1800's. These particular cut nails are called boat nails. The middle of the nail is wider than the top and bottom.\nThe combination of the aesthetic attributes of the floor along with the knowledge of the floor's origins 50 miles away, merge to create a truly unique and traditional floor. To read the article I wrote for Hardwood Floors Magazine follow the link below:\nhttp://www.hardwoodfloorsmag.com/design/my-journey-from-army-ranger-to-creative-wood-floor-pro.html\nThis was an especially meaningful project as it is the kitchen of my childhood home. Removing the multiple layers of existing flooring was like going back through my life in reverse. The underlying hardwood was covered in a thick layer of old backer pad and adhesive, which is not ideal for a refinish. It turned into a real labor of love as I scraped and sanded most of the floor by hand.\nAnother interesting aspect of this project is that there are two different hardwood floors; 2 1/4\u201d red oak and 3\u201d heart pine. They were once separated by a wall, however that wall is now gone and the two floors did not line up. After much thought we decided to install a transition board between the two floors made from a large 6x6 beam from our barn. The floor was finished with Pallmann Magic Oil.\nThis project came about through a chance meeting at the Old Hilliardfest Art & Street Fair. The homeowner wanted to bring the feeling of her recently sold farmhouse into her new house. She had done her homework and knew exactly what she wanted. 3/4\" solid wide plank white oak, hand cut live edges, completely prefinished off-site culminating with multiple coats of OSMO oil, and finally nailed down (no glue). I immediately felt a connection and knew this was going to be a wonderful process and a beautiful end product.\nThe process of prefinishing the hardwood off-site proved to be the most challenging and rewarding step of the project. Each board went through 13 dedicated stations prior to being loaded onto the trailer for delivery. Starting with unfinished white oak from a nationally recognized top tier mill, Sheoga, we began to age the wood with hand tools. Wire brushes, a spokeshave, a draw knife, and a scraper. Each adding subtle characteristics to the boards. The boards were blackened with a vinegar/steel wool solution prior to being sanded. Each board received multiple coats of OSMO oil followed by machine buffing. The boards were air dried on drying racks to cure prior to installation.\nI had never heard of OSMO oil until this project. It turned out to be a great product. It's a natural, low VOC oil/wax finish that penetrates into the wood and protects from within as opposed to building a film on top of the wood. The result is a very deep and rich color while not creating a barrier between yourself and the wood. Hand applying the OSMO at waist level in good lighting allowed us to ensure proper coverage.\nBelieve it or not, mixing steel wool and vinegar together and allowing to sit for different amounts of time will turn certain species of wood a dark color when applied. The solution interacts with the tannin content of the wood. White oak has a high tannin content, so the effect is pretty dramatic. Once dried, the solution was sanded off the surface yet remained in the recesses.\nThe installation went very smooth thanks in part to Sheoga's exceptional milling as well as the wide width and long lengths. Notice the cut nails in the picture. Similar to the Forest to Floor project, the entire floor was face nailed due the wide width. A pilot hole was drilled for each nail prior to being hand driven. There are thousands of cut nails in the floor and in conjunction with the cleats that were blind nailed, this floor is crazy strong.\nThis two story home in Troy was built in 1908. The first floor has 2 1/4\u201d red oak hardwood installed over floor boards. The red oak was in terrible shape as can be seen in the first picture and there were 6 vents and returns that had to be covered. The real story is the second floor of the home; original heart pine floor boards. They were not as bad as the red oak, but still not good. The Hummel did a tremendous job of restoring them to their original glory.\nThis project evolved around the notion of a \"worry-free floor.\" The idea was to create a hardwood floor that could withstand the abuse of everyday family life while minimizing the visual effect of that abuse. Also, the floor needed to be able to handle the effects of open windows a large portion of the year in Ohio. The \"worry-free\" effect was achieved through a combination of 3/4\" engineered hickory, hand scraping, and a linseed oil wax finish.\nPlant based and volatile organic compound (VOC) free, this finish combination is driven into the wood using a buffing machine. The high RPMs in conjunction with the weight of the machine simultaneously heat up and drive the finish into the wood fibers. The result is a finished product with depth that brings out the natural color of the wood along with the grain. In addition to the organic look and natural sheen, normal wear-and-tear do not produce the unsightly white scratch marks commonly associated with a factory finished floor. Any areas identified as needing repair can be locally touched up with a few drops of oil.\nThe hickory is an engineered product meaning that it is not solid hickory. Each board is 3/4\" thick with the wear layer (top) being hickory. The wear layer on the hickory for this project is the thickest on the market. The core is comprised of 11 layer baltic birch cross-grained plywood, which is also the best on the market. The benefit of engineered hardwood flooring is that it is very dimensionally stable. It resists the urge to expand and contract due to humidity swings much more than solid hardwood (especially in wider widths). This engineered hickory is also Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified ensuring that is came from responsibly managed forests.\nFirst, the edges of the hickory boards were eased by hand using a sanding block. Each board was then softened with a damp sponge and hand scraped using a two stripe pattern. The boards were then hand sanded. All of that was done prior to installation. After installation the entire floor was hand sanded once again. The hand scraping adds character and texture to the floor while also serving as camouflage for future wear-and-tear.\nPrior to the advent of drum sanders for flooring use, hardwood floors were scraped flat using a hand scraper. It's very challenging work, however, the look and feel of the finished floor is truly authentic. Walking on the floor barefoot will make you realize that this is the floor you were meant to walk on. You can feel the connection to the wood and the craftsmanship.\nTo view videos of the project, visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/patrickflooring/\nThis was a really fun project we completed for some really great homeowners in Troy, Ohio. We started with 4\" rift and quartered white oak from a mill in southern Ohio. We hand sanded, edged, and wire brushed the hardwood off site prior to hand staining with Duraseal's ebony color. After installation the floor was coated with 2 coats of Pallmann Magic Oil.\nThese stairs were custom designed and built for a client in Victorian Village. They lead from the second floor up to the third floor loft. We wanted to expose as much of the brick wall as possible while building a set of stairs that appeared as though they were original to the house. They were made out of pine to match the floor and finished in a Rubio Monocoat 0% VOC oil.\n800 square feet of 2 1/4\u201d clear maple was installed to match 500 square feet of existing maple. The existing maple was in bad shape after 15 years of use by a busy family of 5. The original finish was an oil based product that had significantly ambered over time into an unflattering yellow. The goal was to achieve a white look that is maple\u2019s natural color, and to keep that white look over the next 15 years. To get the look I used an ultra clear sealer underneath a water based polyurethane.\nI was able to start refinishing this floor the same week that the homeowners closed on the house, which is a terrific time to embark on a refinishing project. This floor is actually two separate floors. The front half of the house is original 1 1/2\u201d red oak and the back half is 2 1/4\u201d red oak. The floor was sanded and stained a custom grey color. Due to the age of the 1 1/2\u201d red oak, I had to dilute the stain to keep the color consistent with the back half of the house.\nA few months after this project the homeowners removed their fireplace and the tile it was sitting on. I went back and patched, sanded, stained, and finished the area. It turned out really nice.\nThis turned out to be a really neat varying width hickory floor in German Village. The widths are 2 1/4\", 3 1/4\", 5\" and they combine in a non sequential order to create a unique floor. The open stair rail gave us an opportunity to incorporate a subtle design element.\nJake takes some pretty cool pictures\nThis is an original staircase in German Village getting sanded down with the Festool. The staircase leads from the first floor to the second floor. We wanted to blend the blonde hardwood on the first floor with the dark hardwood on the second floor. We decided to sand off the the old finish, but not deep enough to remove the character marks from 100 years of use. We actually highlighted the character marks with a dark stain before applying multiple coats of a water based polyurethane. We also gave the risers a facelift.\nWe installed 5\" bamboo in this dentist office. We also made our own baseboard for this project.",

        "raw_content": "Answer: D. The military data-classification system is widely used within the Department of Defense. This system has five levels of classification: unclassified, sensitive, confidential, secret, and top secret. Each level represents an increasing level of sensitivity.\nAnswer: B. The purchase of insurance to transfer a portion or all of the potential cost of a loss to third party is known as risk transference. All other answers are incorrect: Risk reduction implements a countermeasure, risk acceptance deals with it by accepting the potential cost, and risk rejection pretends it doesn't exist.\nAnswer: C. $25 x .4 = $10, or Single loss expectancy (SLE) 3 Annualized rate of occurrence (ARO) 5 Annualized loss expectancy (ALE).\nAnswer: D. The quantitative assessment process involves the following steps: Estimate potential losses (SLE), conduct a threat analysis (ARO), determine annual loss expectancy (ALE), and determine the residual risk after a countermeasure has been applied.\nAnswer: A. Qualitative assessment is scenario driven and does not attempt to assign dollar values to components of the risk analysis. Quantitative assessment is based on dollar amounts; both numeric mitigation and red team are distracters.\nAnswer: C. Technical controls can be hardware or software. They are the logical mechanisms used to control access and authenticate users, identify unusual activity, and restrict unauthorized access. Clerical is a nonexistent category, and all other answers are incorrect: Administrative controls are procedural, and physical controls include locks, guards, gates, and alarms.\nAnswer: B. Risk is expressed numerically as follows:\nAll other answers do not properly define the formula for total risk.\nAnswer: B. Vulnerability is a flaw, loophole, oversight, or error that makes the organization susceptible to attack or damage. All other answers are incorrect: A risk can be defined as the potential harm that can arise from some present process or from some future event; a threat is an unwanted event that can result in harm to an asset or service; and an exploit takes advantage of a bug, glitch, or vulnerability.\nAnswer: A. A procedure is a detailed, in-depth, step-by-step document that lays out exactly what is to be done. It's a detailed document that is tied to specific technologies and devices. Standards are tactical documents; policies are high-level documents; and baselines are minimum levels of security that a system, network, or device must adhere to.\nAnswer: C. Senior management should be the ultimate owner because these individuals are responsible for the asset and must answer if a compromise occurs. Although answer C is the best possible choice, it is important to realize that, in most cases, the data owner will be a member of management but might not be the most senior position within the company. For example, the CFO would be the data owner for all financial data, the director of human resources would be the data owner for all HR data, and so on. All other answers are incorrect because end users, technical managers, and other employees are not typically the data owners.",

        "title": "About - Peter Evans Funeral Directors",
        "raw_content": "Peter Evans Funeral Directors was founded in 1963 by Peter Evans or \u201cPeter Plashett\u201d as he was better known, after the area he lived in all his life. After serving his apprenticeship with the local carpenter and funeral director, he started out on his own, carrying out small carpentry jobs with only a tool bag and a push bike.\nWith his attention to detail and his need for perfection his reputation grew along with the size of the jobs he was being asked to do. One of the most prestigious jobs was to make the cross for the poet Dylan Thomas\u2019 grave which still stands in Laugharne\u2019s St Martin\u2019s Church today. After a few years, the local Funeral Director passed away and the natural progression was for Peter as a carpenter who possessed the skills needed to make coffins to take over the role as funeral director for the area. He never thought of it as a business but simply a service that he provided to the community and he continued with his other work which, with the help of his Wife Gill (aka \u201cthe boss\u201d) behind the scenes, had grown into a building company. They built the first timber framed houses in West Wales and the company was by then, one of the biggest employers in the area. Eventually Peter scaled down the building business to be able to go back to his main passion of cabinet making.\nWith his reputation for perfection and attention to detail following him into the funeral profession it wasn\u2019t long before this \u201cservice to the community\u201d became a full time occupation and so left him with little time for his woodwork which he was now only able to do for close friends and family. As his reputation grew and Funeral Directors from the surrounding areas retired or passed away, Peter\u2019s work load increased and so he had to call upon the help of his Daughter Alison and Son-in-law Arthur to help with certain aspects of the funeral arrangements. However they were only able to help part time as they still had their own family and business to run. Between the three of them, they developed the business and expanded the area that they served and they carried out some high profile funerals including Dylan Thomas\u2019 Wife Caitlin Macnamara. Whenever Peter was asked what was the most important funeral he had carried out, his answer was always the same \u201cthe one I\u2019m arranging at the moment\u201d and this is a statement that we still stand by today.\nWhen Peter was in his early 70s he started to think (begrudgingly) about retirement, as Alison and Arthur were too busy with their own work to take over full time, it looked as though the funeral service would have to close. However Peter\u2019s Grandson Stuart showed an interest in the profession and so it was agreed that he could join the business for 12 months to see if it was something he was suited to. After a couple of months the \u201ctrial period\u201d was forgotten about and he became a permanent member of the family business and eventually in 2007 took over the running of the business so that Peter could take things slightly easier (although his approval was always needed before any decisions were made!).\nOn 1st June 2009, after a short illness Peter passed away but Peter Evans Funeral Directors continues to carry on the high standards that he set through Stuart, Arthur, Alison and at times his two other Grandsons Andrew and Joe and of course Gill \u201cthe boss\u201d.\nPeter Evans Funeral Directors are a family owned and family run undertakers who have been serving the families of Carmarthenshire and South Wales since 1963 and are now into the 3rd generation of ownership. We arrange bespoke funerals that cater to the exact needs and wishes of the person who has passed away, from the most simple yet dignified of funerals right through to the most extravagant and flamboyant of services.",

        "raw_content": "It is worth noticing that the desire for ideas to address the symphony\u2019s problems comes almost exclusively from its shortage of funding. Traditionalists in the symphony would ideally like to solve the money problem, while maintaining the status quo. When the budget is balanced, few of them notice the artistic stagnation. The symphony needs to think bigger. The goal of change needs to be more than producing short-term economic sustainability. The goal must be achieving cultural relevance. Relevance leads to funding. Without it, finding funding will always be limited to muddling through the latest financial crisis.\nIt has been so long since the symphony has had anything to do with the larger American culture that it is easy to accuse those asking for relevance of selling out. Attempts to widen the symphony\u2019s scope are viewed by traditionalists as diminishing the Art. To them, concerts cannot be both serious and popular at the same time. The idea of changing how the symphony presents its concerts is offensive to them, because it concedes that the fault for irrelevancy rests on the symphony rather than on the audience.\nThere are many models for how not-for-profit arts groups can fund their activities. In the United States, however, it is pie-in-the-sky thinking to hope for substantial government funding. Government\u2019s support fluctuates from year to year, but will never fully fund a symphony in America; nor can ticket sales, even at full capacity. The pragmatic truth is that the bulk of funding must come from private donors and foundations.\nBecause it has modeled itself as a mausoleum rather than a performing arts institution, there are fewer private donors who are inclined to help maintain the symphony. The symphony\u2019s funding problems existed long before the most recent financial crisis, and without change, these problems will continue into the future. It is therefore in the symphony\u2019s own self-interest to become relevant to a larger audience in order to build a larger donor base.\nRelevance also gives something for the rest of the organization to work with. The marketing department will have content to sell. The board will have something tangible to point to in its search for funding. The organization itself will be more attractive to other new sources of collaboration. With the goal in mind of being artistically relevant, which is not completely unlike being popular, the orchestra needs to change how it presents Art. This would give the institution a stable base of support, and at the same time makes it matter to the audience, and thus the community.\nIt is absurd to expect any sort of meaningful change in the public\u2019s relationship with the symphony without actually changing something about the concerts. The concert experience itself, the thing that happens at eight o\u2019clock on a Saturday night, is what needs to be examined. There are two aspects of the symphony\u2019s concerts which should be addressed immediately: the concert hall traditions, and the repertoire.\nThe symphony must make the experience of sitting and listening to long-form music as enjoyable and fulfilling as possible. Concerts need to take place in the present, not as an imitation of the past. For too long, concerts have been museums of expired traditions. The ritualistic bowing, the coat-tails, the awkward silences, the bad lighting: all these bad apples are barriers to the modern audience\u2019s enjoyment of the music. The protocol of bowing, tuning, and applause should be updated and refined. Lighting should be used to better present the orchestra throughout the concert and to dictate updated protocol, like applause. The orchestra should wear modern clothing (such as suit and tie) and let go of the nineteenth-century evening wear.\nThe symphonic music that is relevant to Americans is the very music that most symphonies refuse to present seriously: Film and Broadway music. This music is not only distinctly American music, it is also the symphonic music that speaks to the absent audience. And frankly, it is where the vast majority of living compositional talent lay. Composers are professionals, and the best go to places where they are well paid. Traditionalists may disapprove of the direction the symphonic art has gone (or, of collaborative art in general), but art does not need the establishment\u2019s approval to grow and change. It continues as part of peoples\u2019 lives whether the symphony plays it or not. Art does not wait for traditionalists to catch up, and neither will the audience. This is not to say that simply programming film music will address the myriad problems the symphony faces. However, creatively allowing this music to mingle with classical music, with Broadway music, modern music (art music), and video game music creates possibilities for programs that have both relevance and beauty. This, in combination with revising concert hall traditions, is how to start making symphonic concerts relevant in the twenty-first century.\nThe audience no longer trusts the symphony\u2019s artistic judgment. They must be won back and shown that the symphony can present Art that speaks to them without condescension. The social structures built around the symphony are only traditions. Saying that \u201cwe\u2019ve always done it this way\u201d is not an argument, it is an admission of fear. The symphony should be brave!\nClassical music is a top-down industry and a valid worry among smaller symphonies is that if they embrace meaningful change they will lose their artistic credibility among their peers, critics, and donors. Leadership needs to come from the major orchestras in order to lend credibility to a new direction. If a mid-level symphony starts wearing business suits, hires a lighting designer, reformats the concert, and offers more varied and popular repertoire, it is selling out. If the New York Philharmonic does it, it is the new direction of the art. We must learn to think with a larger world-view, and expect the artistic staff at the major orchestras to lead the way. Their stubborn inaction suffocates the entire industry.",

        "raw_content": "Rather than separate my Spark page and my lesson plan, I created a lesson on a Spark page that uses Spark posts as a homework assignment.\nCreating the Spark page was an excellent way for me to share content with my students and for me to grow my skill with this technology. Experimenting with the different ways to display photos took a bit of time, but once I got the hang of it, I found myself revising my procedure to better take advantage of the site's capabilities. I think students will be engaged by the varied presentation, and the integration of videos, text, and photos was a fun way for me to include multimodal stimuli into the lesson. The different themes were a great way to get started without having to customize every detail. I also appreciated that many different pages are available for inspiration - several of the educational pages gave me ideas to use for my lesson.\nThe most challenging aspect of creating the page was deciding which photo presentation style was best for each image or set of images. It was time-consuming to play with the display options because the tools were not intuitive to me. It took a while to figure out how to move images around, change the sizing, etc. I also couldn't figure out how to change the overall background of the page from solid white to something else. I tried several different photo options but I couldn't find a way to change the entire background to a static image.\nI could absolutely see myself using Spark for a number of my lessons - really any that use photos or videos would be great to launch on this platform. Prior to working with Spark, I hadn't considered the idea of using a webpage as a vehicle to display the content. Having worked with it, I now see how this format is a clear, engaging way to display a lesson plan. Of course it's predicated on having internet access and a display of some kind (e.g., Smartboard, projector, etc.); however, if those materials are in place, Spark has the potential to be a powerful tool for me to use in the classroom.",

        "raw_content": "Neuroscientists reach major milestone in whole brain circuit mapping project\nPosted in Science on 3rd Jun, 2012 08:11 PM by AlexMuller\nNeuroscientists at at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) reached an important milestone today, publicly releasing the first installment of data from the 500 terabytes so far collected in their pathbreaking project to construct the first whole-brain wiring diagram of a vertebrate brain, that of the mouse.\nThe data consist of gigapixel images (each close to 1 billion pixels) of whole-brain sections that can be zoomed to show individual neurons and their processes, providing a \u201cvirtual microscope.\u201d\nThe images are integrated with other data sources from the web, and are being made fully accessible to neuroscientists as well as interested members of the general public. The data are being released pre-publication in the spirit of open science initiatives that have become familiar in digital astronomy (e.g., Sloan Digital Sky Survey) but are not yet as widespread in neurobiology.\nEach sampled brain is represented in about 500 images, each image showing an optical section through a 20 micron-thick slice of brain tissue. A multi-resolution viewer permits users to journey through each brain from \u201cfront\u201d to \u201cback,\u201d and thus enables them to follow the pathways taken through three-dimensional brain space by tracer-labeled neuronal pathways. The tracers were picked to follow neuronal inputs and outputs of given brain regions.\n\u201cWe\u2019re executing a grid-based \u201cshotgun\u201d strategy for neuronal tract tracing that we first proposed a few years ago, and which I am pleased to note has gained acceptance elsewhere within the neuroscience community,\u201d says Partha P. Mitra, Ph.D., the Crick-Clay Professor of Biomathematics at CSHL and director of the Mouse Brain Architecture (MBA) Project. After the initial June 1 release, project data will be made public continuously on a monthly basis, Mitra says.\nProject addresses a large gap in knowledge\n\u201cOur project seeks to address a remarkable gap in our knowledge of the brain,\u201d Mitra explains. \u201cOur knowledge of how the brain is wired remains piecemeal and partial after a century of intense activity. Francis Crick and Ted Jones emphasized this in an article published in Nature nearly 20 years ago.\nYet to understand how the brain works (or fails to work in neurological or neuropsychiatric disease), it is critical that we understand this wiring diagram more fully.\nFurther, there remain fundamental questions about brain evolution that cannot be addressed without obtaining such wiring diagrams for the brains of different species.\u201d\nThe MBA Project, which has received critical funding from the Keck Foundation and from the National Institutes of Health, is distinguished by the approach advocated by Mitra and colleagues in a position paper published in 2009. Mitra there proposed mapping vertebrate brains at what he calls the \u201cmesoscopic\u201d scale, a middle-range amenable to light microscopy, providing far more detail than, for instance, MRI-based methods, and yet considerably less detail than is achievable via electron microscopy (EM).\nThe latter approach, while useful for mapping synaptic connections between individual neurons, is feasible on a whole-brain basis only for very small brains (e.g. that of the fruitfly) or very small portions of the mouse brain.\nThe pragmatic approach Mitra advocated and which is realized in this first data release, is to image whole mouse brains in a semi-automated, quality-controlled process using light microscopy and injected neural tracers (both viruses and classically used tracer substances). While the basic methodology has been available for some time, systematically applying it to a grid of locations spanning the entire brain, and digitizing and re-assembling the resulting collection of brains, is a new approach made feasible by the rapidly falling costs of computer storage.\nA single mouse brain at light-microscope resolution produces about a terabyte (1 trillion bytes, or 1000 GB) of data; thus, generating and storing the data set currently being gathered would have been prohibitively expensive a decade or so ago.",

        "raw_content": "Andrew Samonsky Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nEdward Watts Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nGeorge Hearn Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nCandy Buckley Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nRoz Ryan Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nCarolee Carmello Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nGeorge Hearn, Roz Ryan, Carolee Carmello, Candy Buckley and Edward Watts Joseph Marzullo/WENN\nWhether you believe in miracles or medication or Carmello del arte, she came through with flying colors. Forget the Tony committee \u2014 let's head straight for The Vatican with our Carolee-for-Saint placards. Vocally, the role is rangy and difficult, and she must age from teens to middle-age and hit all the emotions required for accumulating spouses and lovers while still maintaining professional religious zeal.\nCarmello went full-throttle for all of the above, checking them off with bold, decisive strokes. Plus, she maintained a clean stage: When a revival-tent canvas dropped at the end of the first act and got tangled in the orchestra pit, she went over and tugged it free, lest the finale be spoiled. It got her extra applause and the appreciation of all.\n\"We've had problems with that doggone tent for two weeks,\" Gifford later said. \"I'm just surprised she doesn't roll it up and carry it out on her back. She could do it, too.\"\nCarmello's last gracious, and most winning, gesture of the night: halting her own tumultuous applause and saluting the show's four creators in the audience who were making their Broadway debuts that evening \u2014 the three Davids and Kathie Lee.\nIt was her last words of the night. When she arrived at the Copacabana after-party for the photo shoot, the publicist escorting her told the press: \"She's not talking.\"\nI frantically broke into my best sign language. She smiled and came over to give me a kiss, and I whispered in her ear, \"You were heroic.\" And she was.\nGifford arrived early, gorgeously gowned like a goddess by Adrianne Papell. \"Is this the look on Olympus this year?\" I asked when she wafted up wearing a smile fixed at Radiant. Occasionally, that relaxed into Relief, which was shared by her entourage. She admitted, after a decade of deep-dish McPherson research, she still had one nagging question: where the evangelist actually was when she dropped off the face of the earth at the height of her celebrity. She returned with the fantastical story she had been chloroformed and kidnapped, but most people suspected she was shacked up in a seedy Mexican village with her married radio engineer, Kenneth Ormiston.\n\"I still don't know where she was those five weeks, and I care less and less as the years go by,\" Gifford said. \"Y'know, we've all been some place we weren't supposed to be, and that's really what our show's about. We're very, very condemning of one another, but God loves us. God loves what He creates. I love that about Aimee. She didn't judge people, but she was certainly judged herself. She was judged a lot.\"\nThe flickering of feminism to be found in McPherson's example was what ignited and fueled Gifford's driving passion for this project. \"I think the fact that Aimee did what she did before women even had the vote is what set me off. The 1920s and '30s were such a male-dominated society, and her biggest enemies were the religious people of the day. She didn't care. She was fearless. Every time she fell down, she got back up \u2014 and I think that's a great message for today. That last song that she sings \u2014 'What Does It Profit [a Man]?' \u2014 every week there's a new person in the newspaper. Now it's David Petraeus. Last week it was Lance Armstrong. The week before that, Arnold Schwarzenegger. You could rip this story from the newspapers today. What does it profit any of us to gain the whole world and lose our soul?\"\nThe vibrant, vital George Hearn brought dignity and authority to the stage in two parts. Given the gray shank of hair and beard he wears as Aimee's sympathetic father, you may think he's Theodore Bikel. \"That's right!\" Hearn lit up. \"I thought it was Hal Holbrook, but it's Theodore Bikel.\" He also plays, more recognizably, her evangelistic rival in L.A. \"They're total opposites and, thus, a lot of fun to play.\"\nHe had special praise for his leading lady. \"Carolee is just an astounding force. She was really hurting a couple of nights ago, and I felt so badly for her. It happens all the time. I'll tell my wife, 'Aw, I got a sore throat,' and she'll say, 'Well, of course, you do. You're in a Broadway musical, and you're about to open.' It was really a sad, dramatic event for Carolee, but she was determined to go on, and, when that girl's determined, there's no stopping her. I could weep for her. She's a wonderful woman.\n\"As a consequence of having Carolee and Kathie Lee at the top of the company be so magnanimous, it's a trickle-down theory that actually works. We're all a family.\"\nCandy Buckley, who plays his stiff-collared wife, and Roz Ryan, as the brothel madam recruited to be a girl-Friday, are the key figures shepherding McPherson through her flamboyant ministry. \"Kathie has written me the most fabulous character I could ever dream of playing,\" Ryan gushed. \"It's based on a real person, but Kathie didn't want me to research her any. She wanted me to become her as opposed to be her. The person wasn't what you see. She was a little Jewish woman.\"\nMost of Andrew Samonsky's stage time is spent playing what could relatively be called Aimee's truest love, Ormiston. He also does \u2014 literally \u2014 a wordless walk-on as her second husband, Harold McPherson. \"He was a much larger character for the Seattle run, but you gotta decide how much story you can tell so he got the boot and was already cut by the time I got ahold of him,\" Samonsky said. \"I think Aimee really loved him \u2014 she really did. After she died, he went to her funeral and was father to her godchildren. I think she wanted to keep McPherson's name for that reason.\"\nEdward Watts plays the husbands on both sides of McPherson. \"The biggest thing I like about them is that they're two completely opposite characters,\" he said. \"As a matter of fact, a lot of times people don't realize I play Robert Semple in Act One \u2014 the Irish preacher with the dark hair. It happens so often. I don't know if that's sort of a double-edged sword, because maybe they don't recognize it and walk away not knowing. But I love that I get to play such very different characters in the show.\"\nWatts makes a more distinct mark as David Hutton, the blond matinee idol who spends most of Act Two in beefcake mode playing Aimee's Biblical tableaus like Adam and Samson and Moses' Pharoah. \"Some day people will not pay me to take my clothes off so, until that day happens, if they want to, I'm game,\" he reasoned.\nHe's another Carmello fan. \"Carolee is an absolute joy. She's one of those actresses who is with you at all times. There's such immense communication between us when we're working together. She gives you everything. It's so easy to work with her, and it was especially moving tonight for so many reasons, not the least of which was that it was opening night and all of us were so emotional getting into it, but, as most people know, she was out yesterday on vocal rest. For her to come back and give a powerhouse show is extraordinary. She's a rock star. We love her to death.\"\nDirector Armstrong boarded the show when it played Seattle's Fifth Avenue Theatre where he's artistic director and rode it to Broadway. \"I would love to come back,\" he admitted. \"We're making plans to do that, as we speak. A couple of things that we're developing out in Seattle , I think, will make their way here if all goes well.\" He found Gifford a delight to work with. \"I've spent many hours with Kathie, and the amazing thing is, what you see is exactly who she is every moment of the day. In my living room, in her living room, in the basement of the theatre \u2014 that's who she is.\"\nThe two music-making Davids \u2014 Friedman and Pomeranz \u2014 are both on Broadway for the first time in a composing capacity. Friedman authored the AIDS anthem, \"Help Is On the Way\" (\"I always say, 'Writing comes to me, not from me,' so if you think I think 'Help Is On the Way,' you're out of your mind.\"); he has also conducted on Broadway on numerous occasions. Both have composed for Off-Broadway before, and for their debut they each contributed about nine songs apiece. \"We both wrote different parts of the score,\" Pomeranz explained, \"and Kathie Lee wrote the lyrics, all the lyrics. She even wrote one song \u2014 lyrics and music \u2014 all by herself: 'That Sweet Lassie From Cork.' It's the dance number that is done on the ship.\"\nLyricist David Zippel was a mite miffed to be the only David around not involved in the show, but he has written with Pomeranz before and for Gifford. \"Right now, I'm working with The Lord,\" he said, meaning Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber. \"We're giving another look to The Woman in White to see if it will work as a chamber piece.\"\nRichard Maltby Jr. and David Shire were on the opening-night guest-list, having composed songs for a Mother's Day show for Gifford once. Right now, they're readying a one-night-only performance of their hit Off-Broadway musical revue, Starting Here, Starting Now, Dec. 2 at The York Theatre at Saint Peter's. It will star the original stars \u2014 Loni Ackerman, Margery Cohen and George Lee Andrews \u2014 and, added Maltby with a certain assurance, \"this won't be happening again!\"\nRegis Philbin, along with wife Joy, joined Gifford's NBC co-host Hoda Kotb and other cohorts like Barbara Walters, Matt Lauer, Al Roker, Savannah Guthrie, Natalie Morales, Willie Geist and Sara Haines. Also in attendance: Liza Minnelli; Our Boy from Birdland, Jim Caruso; Dead Accounts author Theresa Rebeck; the sublimely caustic comedienne Jackie Hoffman (revving up to reprise her \"Jewbilant\" holiday treat, A Chanukah Carol, Fridays and Saturdays in December at New World Stages, starting Dec. 8); Kris Jenner, the glamorous matriarch of the Kardashian kids; Eve Plumb; producer-actor Tom Hulce; Tony winner Lillias White, and a frankly relieved Frank Gifford.",

There at the market square the castle stands on the right side of a road no 33.\nFormer name: Mittelwalde\nMi\u0119dzylesie appears for the first time in historical sources from 1294. A brick castle was raised probably about the middle of the XIVth cent. by the family of Glubos (von Glaubus or von Glaubitz), however the sources mention it just a few dozen years later. There exists, however a theory linking Jan Luksemburski with the building of the castle.\nFrom the beginning of its existence the stronghold was a private property. In 1421 the castle became a base of dukes of G\u0142og\u00f3w for their crusades to the Bohemia. The stronghold was destroyed by the Hussites 7 years later, and in 1472 \u2013 became the property of Micha\u0142 and Dawid von Tschirnhaus. They transformed the remainders of the castle into a renaissance mansion, which existed for almost 200 years. In the middle of the Thirty Years\u2019 War the building was destroyed again, and in 1653 \u2013 purchased by a count Michael Ferdynand von Althann. The family of Althann converted the remainders of a former mansion into a baroque palace, which has survived until today, while in hands of the house it remained till 1945.",

        "raw_content": "Vitamin D Supplementation and Fall Risk\nPosted by Fred Hardinge on January 5th 2016 at 10:08pm\nHigh doses of Vitamin D increase the risk of falls in the elderly.\nSwiss researchers evaluated monthly high-dose vitamin D supplementation in 200 adults 70 years and older with a history of a fall in the past year. They were randomized to receive one of three monthly regimens, including the control group. At 12 months, lower extremity function was the same in all groups, but fall rates were higher except in the control group. An editorial suggested those over 70 should consume 800 IU daily of vitamin D, preferably from a balanced diet.\nPositiveTip: Adequate exposure to sunlight daily, combined with a balanced diet is important to assure sufficient vitamin D.\nTagged as: Vitamin D, falls, supplementation\nLive Longer with Lower Vitamin D Levels\nPosted by Elvin Adams on April 1st 2013 at 12:33am\nStudies of the role of vitamin D in human physiology indicate that vitamin D is involved in bone formation, the growth and development of immune cells, and stimulation or inhibition of blood vessels in cancer. Those who have lower levels of vitamin D are found to have higher death rates from heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and several kinds of cancer. Low vitamin D levels also adversely affect, multiple sclerosis, allergies, asthma, infections, and depression.\nTagged as: Vitamin D, longevity, nonagenerian, supplementation, vitamins\nValue of Omega-3 Fatty Acids Questioned\nOmega-3 fatty acid supplementation found of no benefit in diabetics.\nMany people take omega-3 fatty acid supplements hoping to reduce their risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, recent research suggests that these supplements may have little value. A group of 12,500 well-controlled diabetic patients who received 1 gram of omega-3 fatty acid or a placebo demonstrated no differences after 6 years of follow-up. These findings are consistent with a meta-analysis of patients, with or without diabetes, showing no benefit to supplementation.\nTagged as: CVD, diabetes, n-3 fatty acids, omega-3 fatty acids, supplementation\nFormula Supplemented With Fatty Acids Offers Little Benefit\nPosted by Fred Hardinge on June 1st 2012 at 10:26am\nAdding DHA and AA to infant formula yields no significant benefit.\nA meta-analysis by researchers at Yale University shows that infant formula supplemented with long-chain polyunstatured fatty acids, including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA), was no better than other formulas for infant cognition. The Yale researchers compared supplemented and unsupplemented soy and cow's milk-based formulas.\nPositiveTip: Through the first year, breastfeeding is the optimal infant nutrition. If you must use formula, fatty acid supplemented formula appears to provide no advantage.\nTagged as: arachidonic acid, cognition, docosahexaenoic acid, formula, supplementation\nLess May Be More!\nStudy finds vitamin and mineral supplementation may be counterproductive.\nAlthough a healthy diet provides sufficient vitamins and minerals, many individuals take vitamin and mineral supplements hoping to further improve their health and prevent disease. A large, 19 year observational study of postmenopausal women has found that taking common vitamin supplements may actually shorten life instead. After controlling for confounders, absolute risk increased from 2.4% for multivitamins to 18% for copper.\nPositiveTip: Supplements do not add to the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables, and may have unwanted consequences.\nTagged as: mineral, risk, supplementation, vitamin\nDon't Count on Supplements to Prevent Chronic Disease!\nHigh selenium status increases risk of high cholesterol and diabetes.\nSelenium, an essential element necessary for proper cellular function, has recently become a popular supplement thought to have antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. A new British study has linked high levels of selenium to increased levels of total cholesterol and LDL (\"bad\") cholesterol. The U.K. has lower selenium status that the U.S. making it a good place for a study like this. High selenium status has also recently been linked to a higher incidence of diabetes.\nTagged as: cholesterol, diabetes, hyperlipedemia, selenium, supplementation\nWhy All the Fuss About Folic Acid?\nExcess folic acid may raise the risk of cancer.\nThere is increasing evidence that folic acid (FA) suppresses immune surveillance of cancer cells and may stimulate cancer cell growth. Earlier in 2009 it was reported that folic acid supplements were associated with excess risk of prostate cancer.\nTagged as: cancer, folic acid, supplementation",

        "raw_content": "Prednisone is a corticosteroid used to reduce inflammation and treat allergies. This medicine has many side effects including moon face and buffalo hump. Most people who use corticosteroids long-term develop Cushing's syndrome or just the moon face appearance, but few patients know how to deal with it. Moon face or moon facies can be related to obesity in addition to Cushing disease. It occurs during Prednisone therapy due to water retention, while buffalo hump is caused by fat redistribution.\nMoon face, caused by steroids, is typified by a round puffy face; sometimes the face is so full that the ears cannot be seen anymore. Most doctors refer to moon face as a Cushingoid appearance, because it is related to Cushing's syndrome. This syndrome is caused by high levels of cortisol, a hormone excreted by the adrenal glands. While fat build-up on the legs, arms and belly is usually a sign of obesity, fat accumulated just in the back of the neck or trunk is a sign of Cushing's disease. A high percent of the accumulated extra fat is caused by increased appetite, which is one of the most common side effects of Prednisone therapy. In order to confirm the diagnosis, blood and urine tests, or special tests such as CT scan or MRI should be undertaken. Moon face may be avoided during steroid treatment is by using injected or inhaled forms of the drug, because these side effects are more common when using oral steroids[1].\nBuffalo hump is a disorder related to excessive secretion of cortisol hormones, and high dose or long-term therapy with Prednisone or other steroids[2]. This over secretion leads to fat redistribution, so fat which normally equally distributed in all body areas starts to accumulate at the back of the neck. These dorsal fat pads are not painful, but they can look odd. Other buffalo hump symptoms include face swelling, lumps of fat, high blood pressure, bulging belly, breast and chest enlargement, movement restriction and high blood sugar level. A serious problem when it comes to buffalo hump is scoliosis, which is a spinal disorder characterized by an abnormal S-shaped curvature of the backbone. Scoliosis often comes along with muscle disorders like muscle weakness[3].\nBoth buffalo hump and moon face are caused by hormonal imbalances. Aside from corticosteroids, hormones released by the pituitary glands may cause these diseases, so call your doctor if you suspect your endocrine glands have any dysfunction or tumors. Buffalo hump can be diagnosed by physical examination of the fat pad or by cortisol level test, CT or MRI head scans or MRI examinations of adrenal and pituitary glands[4]. This disease can be treated by surgery or hormonal therapy. Buffalo hump removal through surgical methods, includes the option of laser surgery for more precision and less pain. Home exercise can also help to reduce the hump, in particular exercises that straighten the neck and upper back. Weights can be used in order to lose weight and strengthen muscles at the same time.\nWilkins L., Nurse's five minute clinical consult: signs and symptoms, 2008\n4 Crivineanu M., Nicorescu V., Ed.

So here we all are, camping out and spending time with my dad, and reading whatever books we find on Nana's bookshelves. We've scoured the place and one of our favorite finds this week is a book that has particular meaning to me. Because I grew up with it? No. Because I like the message? (Well, I do, but . . .) No. It has particular meaning to me because I know the illustrator, Paula Becker.\nWhat I Like About You is the story of a kangaroo who is being assured that he is loved and cared for by his creator. It is a message to the young reader, affirming that they have great worth and value.\n\"God knows all about you, and He smiled when you came.\nHe delights in your laugh and the sound of your name.\"\n(As you can see, the story/statement is made in rhyme.)\nIt is a beautiful message for young children to hear, know, understand and believe.\nI'm quite fond of this book.\nAnd the illustrations!? AWESOME! Paula Becker has a unique style. I'd say it's whimsical, cartoonish (yet cuddly) and HAPPY. I have never seen anything that she has drawn that hasn't left a smile on my face. I can't say that I make a general habit out of following illustrator blogs, but I do\nfollow Paula's. I do that because I know her, yes, and because I like her work. Honest and truly. I'm excited to revisit this book that she played a part in creating\nand I encourage people to check it out!\nThis book has a message that is worth sharing and hearing. Perhaps, just perhaps, this book is not just for kids after all!\nLabels: Kid Picks\nI LOVE finding wonderful books on bookshelves. When we were on vacation a couple of years ago, the hotel had some children's books in the common area, and it was there that I found out how great Horton was.\nHi Carrie!! I just got back from a wedding. How's it going?\nHow fun. And who doesn't love a good kangaroo book?! :)\nGood to know that a book that probably sat on a shelf unnoticed for a while is getting some love! :)",

        "raw_content": "Thanks, I'll Pass\nTime again for another post documenting books which I have mentioned around here as planning to read but have found myself unable to complete for one reason or another.\nOh, how I wanted to love The Keeper of Secrets ! I was in the mood for some relaxing fiction and sat down to read this new novel from Julie Thomas. Set both in WWII and the present day, it tells the story of a Jewish family with musical talents who once possessed a rather remarkable violin. This violin was confiscated by the Nazis and the family has long since given up any hope of recovering it. The book flips back and forth between the family then and the family now, revealing their history as well as that of the violin in question.\nThomas presents us with interesting characters that are easy to care about. Her writing style draws the reader right into the book and makes it so that you truly do not want to set the book down. You want to know what becomes of the family and their confiscated possessions. You want to see the history play out and know what happens to each individual.\nHowever, about half way through the book, I felt compelled to put it down for good. (I'm still annoyed by this. I'm still wildly curious about how Thomas manages to tie up her loose ends.)\nFor starters, I instantly relaxed upon opening the pages of this modern novel. The story flowed smoothly and I was not lambasted by foul language or sex scenes. My hopes rose that I had found a clean story and I was happily speeding along through the tale! There was some mild language scattered about (e.g., \"hell\") but nothing enormously offensive. I could overlook those few words.\nThen I reached the middle of the book and in quick succession there is a scene wherein a young girl attempts to seduce an older man (couple of sentences but very vivid imagery), a rape scene (described in three sentences, but I got the picture!), and a strong hint at a homosexual relationship (again, 2-3 sentences but I knew). Also, regrettably, the language took a big turn for the worse. To say I was frustrated and annoyed by these additions to what could have been a clean and compelling story is an understatement. Not only was annoyed but I felt taken advantage of as a reader.\nBooks such as these, which start of so strong and sure and promise a reader a fantastic story only to dissolve into sexual activity and foul language, really rubs me the wrong way. I feel like the publisher and author are hoping to lull me into complacency. I almost want to give in because the author is clearly talented and can weave a wonderful tale. And yet I just can't won't do it. I am very interested in this story. I want to know the ending. But I'm going to have to make a guess and move along because I'm not going to spend time filling my imagination with sexual scenes and foul language. We're surrounded by enough filth in real life and I don't think including such things in their book makes a person a better writer. Tell me the story. Tell it well. Use intelligent language. Then, I will read your book and I will love it.\nThat said, I do appreciate William Morrow for giving me a chance with this title. Thanks for sending a copy my direction in exchange for my honest thoughts.\nWrite This Book: A Do-It-Yourself Mystery , by Pseudonymous Bosch is apparently the last in a \"Secret Book\" series that I've never heard of before. I thought the idea of this book sounded clever, being a book that encourages the reader to write their own mystery story.\nGeared towards middle grade readers, the book quips and cajoles us through the steps necessary to write a book, from the preface, to the story, to the re-writing and editing process. It is means to be quirky and fun and in some respects I suppose it is that.\nHowever, I have to say, the book fell flat for me. I like the idea of encouraging young readers to practice their writing skills. Familiarizing young people with the process of writing a book and having it published seems a noble endeavor. In the end, I just didn't care much for the style that is this book.\nWhoever Psuedonymous Bosch is, he tries to be witty in a \"I'm so cool, I don't have to care about anything if I don't want to\" sort of way and that attitude is not one that I'm particularly fond of. I certainly wouldn't want my children picking up this book thinking that they had every right to be bored with life. I'd rather them read books that encourage them to think adventurous, imaginative thoughts that spill out into their ordinary - whatever that ends up being. I don't want them to be threatened and cajoled into writing or think that the only way that they will ever have to write anything is if I present the concept to them in a radical way.\nThat explained, I do realize that many children were not raised to expand their imaginations and/or explore the world with them. And so it may come to making a ton of dry, witty comments and arguing them into thinking that writing and telling stories is a \"cool\" exercise. So then, this book may appeal to some. In the end, I'd rather not need it with my kids so I'll not keep it on our book shelves.\nMany thanks to LB-Kids for sending a copy of this title my direction in exchange for my honest thoughts.\nLabels: Historical Fiction, I'll Pass, MIddle Grade\nI share your frustration with the first type of book. A recent one from Kate Morton was similar - not much of those kinds of elements. but enough to spoil the book for me and to discourage me from reading anything else of hers, though I loved her style otherwise. I'd love to ask some of these authors, \"What is so wrong with clean?\" Has anyone who doesn't share our values ever gotten to the end of a book and said, \"Good, except it needed more curse words and sex scenes\"? It seems to me that even people who enjoy that kind of thing can enjoy a book without it, while its presence alienates the rest of us.\nAmen to your comments on the first book! Starting a book and then coming across junk like that in the middle frustrates me to no end. Kudos for continuing to stick up for clean books!\n*sigh* That first book DID sound promising. As for the second, I'm actually reading through a book right now that has the EXACT same feel and I think that's why I'm not liking it. It's for young adults (of course) and it's also, \"I'm just so cool I'm over EVERYTHING\" oriented.\nI do appreciate the warning--I had the first one requested at the local library, and it's now in, but it doesn't look like I'll be reading it after reading your review. I hate when I like the story and the writing, and then elements like that are added and ruin it.\nBummer on the first book! I hate when it looks like it will be a clean read and turns out to not be. :( I wonder if authors would heed the more conservative readers if we started contacting them...\nIt seems like more and more books these days are throwing the bad content at you over halfway through, or worse, in the last book of a series. I can't understand why!\nThanks again for these posts. Very helpful! :)\nStephanie Kay said...\nIf you ever come across a GOOD write-a-story type of book for upper elementary/middle school please let me know. I've seen several that look good for high school but I'd rather start sooner than that.\nBummer about the first book. I'd feel deceived too, though the jist of the story sounds super interesting!\nI haven't read Pseudonymous Bosch but Amanda loves that series, so I requested this one too, but haven't looked at it. But yes, I think you pinpoint the way he is correctly, which is part of his charm. But if you got it expecting a more serious-minded writing guide, I imagine you were quite surprised!",

        "title": "Should You Use Storage During A Move?",
        "raw_content": "Removals and Storage \u203a Blog \u203a Should You Use Storage During A Move?\nThe process of moving house can be incredibly difficult and incredibly complicated, especially if this is your first time moving. However, there are a number of ways in which you can make the entire process a great deal easier and reduce the difficulties which usually surround the process. As well as making sure that you hire in the best professional help, there is a great way in which you can reduce the worries and concerns which you might be facing with regards to the day of the move itself. If you are worried about any items in particular or the amount of items which you will need to move, then it could well be that a storage service is just what you are looking for. With the ability to take your items and place them in a safe and secure place, then you can benefit greatly from the use of a storage service. But how exactly should you approach the process of storing your items and which items can be of the most use by being placed into such facilities? Perhaps the best way in which you can use the facilities for storing your items during a move is to reduce the complexities and the time which will be taken up during moving day. While it can certainly help to make sure that you have the best in professional help during every step of the move, the ability to place items into a secure facility can be absolutely priceless. It can allow you to dramatically reduce the amount of work which will need to be done on the day of the move itself. If there are any items which you know that you will not need to use too much in the time surrounding your move, you can place these items into storage well in advance and then take them out when you are settled into the new home. This means that the moving process, on the day, will be much quicker. By making sure that you are only focusing on the essentials during a move, you can reduce the amount of time and effort required in order to get the best results. As well as making moving day easier, you can also use professional storage in order to offer a great deal of protection to your possessions during the move. If you are thinking of moving home and have a few very valuable items (whether it is sentimental or financial value) then it can make a lot of sense to place these items into storage and ensure that they have the best possible protection during the process. By placing them into a safe and secure environment, you are ensuring that they are not subject to the hectic process which moving home can quickly become and as such you are able to ensure that they get the best possible protection during the move and stand the highest possible chance of making it to the new destination. As well as ensuring that your items are protected and that your moving day is simple, storage also offers you the chance to save money. By placing certain items into the kind of protective facilities, you can dramatically reduce the help which you will need on the day of the move. This can mean that you can save money on the scale and kind of service which you will need and will be able to opt for the smaller service when it comes to making sure that you can transport everything from one home to another on the day of the move.",

        "title": "Seth Warner of the Green Mountain Boys is born - May 6, 1743",
        "raw_content": "Seth Warner of the Green Mountain Boys is born\nOn this day in history, May 6, 1743, Seth Warner of the Green Mountain Boys is born. Seth Warner was born in Roxbury, Connecticut and moved to Bennington, Vermont in 1763. Bennington was part of the disputed New Hampshire Grants between New York and New Hampshire, which is today the state of Vermont. New Hampshire began granting settlers tracts of land in the area in the 1740s, but a 1764 Royal verdict gave the land to New York causing New York to invalidate all the New Hampshire grants.\nNew York began seeking the return of the land granted to New Hampshire settlers, who refused to give up their lands. The New Hampshire settlers organized a militia group called the Green Mountain Boys to protect their lands from New York officials and settlers. The Green Mountain Boys were led by Ethan Allen and his cousins, Seth Warner and Remember Baker. They would harass and threaten any New York officials, surveyors or settlers that came into the area. As a leader of the Green Mountain Boys, Warner soon had a price placed on his head by Governor William Tryon of New York.\nSeth Warner Statue\nBattle of Bennington Monument\nWhen the American Revolution broke out, the Green Mountain Boys immediately set out on a mission to capture Fort Ticonderoga in New York. The fort was notoriously undermanned and dilapidated, but had a very large store of cannons and artillery. The Green Mountain Boys captured the fort on May 10, less than a month after Lexington and Concord. Warner then went on and captured Fort Crown Point a few days later. For the capture of these two forts, Allen, Warner and the Green Mountain Boys became legends across the colonies. The captured artillery was carried across the mountains by a young Colonel Henry Knox to George Washington at the siege of Boston and used to fortify Dorchester Heights, which caused the British to evacuate the city.\nBase of Seth Warner Statue\nThe Continental Congress soon authorized a regiment to be made up of Green Mountain Boys. Seth Warner was chosen to lead the regiment in place of Allen, probably because of Allen's legendary temper. The unit was officially called Warner's Regiment. The Regiment served in the invasion of Canada and helped in the capture St. John's and Montreal and with the siege of Quebec. Warner personally led the American rear guard in its retreat from Canada the next spring.\nIn 1777, Warner, now a colonel, participated in the Saratoga campaign, displaying superb leadership in several key battles. On August 16, he assisted General John Stark in driving the British off at the Battle of Bennington, a feat which earned him a statue at the battle site. Warner was present at the eventual surrender of Burgoyne.\nIn March, 1778, Warner was made a Brigadier General of the Vermont militia. He was quite ill, however, by this time, possibly from arthritis or tuberculosis, and did not spend much time with his troops anymore. As the war shifted to the south, Warner's Regiment was disbanded in 1781 and Warner returned to Roxbury permanently.\nWarner was in a tough financial position by this time as his finances had largely been neglected during the war. He passed away at the young age of 41 in 1784, leaving his wife and three children, ages 16, 10 and 7. His wife, Esther, petitioned both the federal government and the Vermont government for financial assistance due to her husband's war service. Eventually the Vermont government awarded her 2,000 acres, but the land was rocky and worthless. Warner is buried in Roxbury's Center Green.\nNote: Seth Warner's birthdate is sometimes listed as May 17, 1743. It is May 6 by the Old Style Julian calendar. May 17 by the New Style Gregorian calendar. The British Empire switched to the New Style in 1752.\nMay 7, 1775 - John Hancock writes of his arrival in New York City\nReturn to top of Seth Warner of the Green Mountain Boys is born",

        "raw_content": "It's wonderfull!! Can't wait until christmass!! :wink: I hope he'll record a lot of new songs!!! :love:\nLooks like Steve Lipson is also producing Ronan's new album too. He works well with Ronan\nhttp://www.nativemanagement.com/produce ... #main_area\nI saw this on Ronan's official Twitter page:\nFinished vocals on solo record. Very excited. Sounding great. R\nThis is amazing news! I can't quite believe this is true and it's actually going to happen. But I really wait for this album to be released. How lucky are we with two solo Ronan albums being released in the space of about nine months?!\nyes!! It's our gifts for christmas!!! A lot of Ronan woah!!\nI wish the last one could have had a longer life - but I know with these themed albums that often isn't possible. Either way, it's all good news to me.\nThis just got me thinking. Christmas/winter songs by Gregg Alexander? Hmm :?:\nI don't think he said he was writing with Greg for his solo album.......they are working with him for Boyzone tracks. Seems to me that the new Boyzone album will be the upbeat album that Ronan should have make\nI saw somewhere Greg Alexander has worked with him for his solo album too\nHe worked with GA two years ago. He worked with a bunch of different people two years ago. And if *insert a really abusive sentence about boybands here* then we would have heard all that stuff by now.\nI think he is always writing. Just after BYH he did a lot of writing for a new solo album, but that seem to go by the way for the \"reunion\" and then SFMM came along. Hopefully we may get a few new songs on \"Winter's Songs\", but I think we have to expect just as many covers Still whatever form it takes I'm just happy that he is still doing solo stuff alongside BZ stuff, to me anything is better than nothing.\nHere is an intersting site - it lists all Ronan's co written songs. Some we have heard, many have never been released, but it does give you an idea of who he has worked with over the years.\nHe is writing all the time yeah. He must have dozens of songs on the shelf that he could use any time.\nThis is definitely much better than nothing - especially in what I'd expected to be a horrible year. It's one step along the way, it may be a little one but at least he's moving forward.\nWouldn't you just love to hear some of those never released songs. It's probably not going to be my 'ideal' album but I agree with you Karen I am just happy to get something solo from him.\nOh dear, I just wish he did use his own songs more, even if it was for Boyzone. I mean, I'm not a huge fan of the boyband idea anymore but if they did use songs which are actually written by Ronan (wasn't there talks about him and Mikey being in the studio together as well?), I guess I wouldn't even mind that much. But none of the 3 new Boyzone songs were written by any of the boyz. I think it's just really sad\nThe fewer songs of his he wastes on the boyband, the better. Better save the best ones for his next release and actually get some international recognition that way. (Like, hello? there is a world outside the UK, it's just that the doors aren't open to everyone - thank God!!!!!)\nBut yes it is sad. Pretty much everything of what goes on these days is sad.\nWinter Songs - Details and tracklist\nNew Album - Winter Songs\nFollowing the success of Ronan Keating\u2019s international number one album \u2018Songs For My Mother\u2019 released earlier this year, Ronan is delighted to announce that he has recorded another special set of songs entitled \u2018Winter Songs\u2019 for this Christmas.\n'Winter Songs' will be released on 16th November and the single 'Stay' will be released digitally on the same day.\nTeaming up again with \u2018Songs For My Mother\u2019 producer Steve Lipson (past credits include Paul McCartney, Annie Lennox and Pet Shop Boys) Ronan has pulled together a set of 11 songs that evoke special memories of winter and Christmas for him.\n\u2018Winter Songs\u2019 is a mix of traditional and modern festive classics, including tracks from artists such as Simon & Garfunkel, Joni Mitchell and Grammy Award winning Sugarland. Along with these Ronan has also included the poignant Christmas Hymn \u2018Silent Night\u2019 and the beautiful \u2018Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas\u2019. The album also includes two brand new Ronan songs \u2018Its Only Christmas\u2019 and \u2018Scars\u2019.\nRonan said of the album:\n\u201c2009 has been a brilliant year and when I was asked to follow up \u2018Songs For My Mother\u2019 with a collection of winter songs I jumped at the opportunity\u201d, enthused Ronan. \u201cFor me some of these songs conjure up some of my favorite Christmas memories.\u201d\nThe full album tracklisting will be -\nWinter Song - Sara Bareilles\nScars - Ronan Keating\nRiver - Joni Mitchell\nIts Only Christmas - Ronan Keating :wink:\nLittle Drummer Boy \u2013 Traditional\nRing Them Bells - Bob Dylan",

        "title": "Examples of data plots",
        "raw_content": "This document provides examples of a number of graphs that might be used in understanding or presenting data. Comments with each example are intended to help you understand why the data were plotted in a certain fashion, or why it should have been done differently.\nYou might also be interested in our tutorial on using figures (Graphs).\nTo plot or not to plot?\nThe purpose of plotting scientific data is to visualize variation or show relationships between variables, but not all data sets require a plot. If there are only one or two points, it is easy to examine the numbers directly, and little or nothing is gained by putting them on a graph. Similarly, if there is no variation in the data, it is easy enough to see or state the fact without using a graph of any sort.\nWhen a graph is appropriate, it must be of an appropriate type to avoid misleading the reader.\nFig. 1. Research expenditures for various scientific fields.\nBoth plots in figure 1 show US research expenditures by discipline in 2000. The scatter plot on the left is incorrect because it implies a relationship between the variables on the two axes, further reinforced by the connecting lines. Since the horizontal axis is just a list of disciplines with no inherent ordering, no relationship can exist. Categorical data of this sort are better plotted as a bar graph, as on the right, since such a graph displays the relative magnitudes without implying a functional relationship. (Pie charts are often seen in the popular press for financial data, in order to emphasize the relative size of the allocations. Pie charts are rarely used in technical fields.)\nA set of common mistakes\nIt has been argued that smoking causes lung cancer. One way to test this hypothesis is to look for a relation between tobacco smoking and lung cancer. The figure below plots data for cigarette consumption in 1930 and male death rate from lung cancer in 1950 for several countries.\nFig. 2. Deaths due to cigarette consumption.\nThere are a lot of mistakes in figure 2, including\nMissing units \u2013 is it total consumption and deaths, or normalized for population?\nReversed axes \u2013 we suspect that smoking leads to cancer, not the converse. The independent or causal variable goes on the x-axis.\nThe jagged line connecting the points has no basis. The scatter of the data suggests large random effects, not real changes from point to point.\nA caption that is not particularly helpful.\nRedrawing the graph produces the following result\nFig. 3. Death rate from lung cancer vs cigarette consumption for several countries. The solid line is a linear fit to the data.\nThe straight line represents a simple model, which may be the best that these badly-scattered data can support. The extrapolation to zero consumption may or may not be valid, and would have to be tested with other data.\nMisleading scales\nAn experiment is conducted to determine how much a solute contributes to the volume of the resulting solution. The procedure is to add weighed amounts of a salt, KCl, to 100 ml samples of water. After allowing the system to come to equilibrium the solution is filtered to remove any residual solid and the volume of solution is measured.\nFig. 4. Solution volume as a function of KCl mass.\nThe data are plotted in the figure above, in a manner which is worse than useless. Note the following problems:\nAxes are not labeled with the quantity measured, nor are units identified.\nThe axes are very unequal in length, for no visible reason.\nThe vertical scale has too wide a range to display the range of the data.\nThe horizontal scale is also too long, extending well beyond the data range.\nGrid lines add clutter but not information.\nA fitted straight line is shown, but the scales make it hard to tell if it is accurate.\nThe fit extends far beyond the data, without justification.\nFixing these errors produces the plot in figure 5. It is now clear that the solution volume increases with added solute mass, but only until the solution becomes saturated, so a linear fit to the whole data set is just nonsense. Below saturation, the scales now allow the reader to evaluate the data accurately, for example to see if the volume increase is linear below saturation or if more data are required to decide.\nComputer fits\nExperimenters often use computer-generated best-fit lines to demonstrate agreement with some model or theory. For example, a student has data from a radiation experiment which consisted of observing the number of gamma rays emitted in a fixed time interval. Counts were obtained for many time intervals and the results plotted as a histogram. The next step is to see if the distribution of counts follows the expected Gaussian distribution. Using the defaults in a poor fitting program might produce this result.\nFig. 6. Comparison of data and theory for counting experiment.\nOne line consists of data, the other theory, but it is hard to follow either one (impossible with a monochrome version). Connecting the data dots is also incorrect because it implies that there are more data than actually present. A better presentation would look like figure 7.\nThe actual data points are now clearly distinguishable symbols, showing that the raw data for four count values has been binned together and that there is some scatter around the theory curve. The theory itself is displayed as a smooth solid line because the values can be calculated everywhere and there are no uncertainties in the calculated numbers. Any program to be used for scientific graphing must be able to produce a similar plot.\nFig. 7. Histogram of interval counting data. The solid line is the expected Gaussian distribution, squares are observations.\nGuiding experimentation\nData plots are often a useful guide to experimentation. A plot will quickly show if parameters are varying as expected, and may indicate regimes where more or less data are needed.\nFig. 8. Density of liquid mercury as a function of temperature. The solid line is a linear fit to the observations.\nThe plot in figure 8 was obtained by measuring the density of liquid mercury as a function of temperature. Over the range shown, the density decreases linearly with temperature, to a very good approximation, and one could define a volume expansion coefficient from the slope of the line.\nFig. 9. Density of liquid water as a function of temperature.\nThe next liquid measured was water, which is clearly a much more complex substance. The total variation from 0 to 100 C is only about 5%, showing the need for good precision of measurement, and is certainly not linear. In fact, it might be useful to get more data in the region around 0 C, to find out if the density approaches zero uniformly or has a maximum in the region.\nFig. 10. Density of liquid water as a function of temperature, expanded scale.\nThe results of the additional measurements are plotted above, clearly showing a peak in the density as a function of temperature. Note that these data are plotted on even more expanded scales, with a vertical range of only 0.4%. Since this is needed to show the small maximum, both plots would probably be included in a report of this experiment.\nIt is sometimes helpful to mathematically transform one or both of the variables before plotting. The technique can be used to linearize data to simplify model fitting, or to change the way data are distributed to clarify display. The exact procedure will depend on the situation, but two examples will show the process.\nMaking a relationship linear\nA beam of light is bent when it is incident on a plane surface between different substances. The angle of refraction is related to the angle of incidence by Snell\u2019s law,\nA student measures the incident and refracted angles for an air to glass interface, and wants to find the index of refraction for the glass, n2, knowing that the index for air n1 = 1.000. Believing that a graph would be a good way to analyze the data, the student solves for the refracted angle in terms of the incident angle\nA computer program might fit this function, but the available program won\u2019t do the arcsin function, so the student tries to be more clever. Noting that\nshe plots sinqr vs sinqi, with the following result\nFig. 11. Linearized refraction data. The solid line is a fit, assuming Snell\u2019s law.\nIt is now easy to see that the data are well described by the expected straight line and to obtain the slope, which is 1/n2.\nChanging the distribution\nNext, consider the graph below, which plots the number of state employees vs the total population for the 50 US states in the year 2000. Evidently, there are a lot more small states than large ones, so the data are bunched near the origin. The straight line is drawn on the assumption that the size of the bureaucracy is simply proportional to the number of citizens. Unfortunately, this assumption does not appear to be valid, since there seem to be systematic deviations at the low end, where the data are hard to distinguish, and the intercept is not zero. Another approach is needed.\nFig. 2. Number of state government employees vs total state population in 2000.\nThe next plot uses the same data, but they aredisplayed as the logarithm of both employee and population numbers. The effect of taking a log is to spread out the small values and compress the larger ones, causing the data to be more uniformly distributed on the axes. This often aids visualization of deviations or other problems.\nFig. 13. Number of state government employees vs total state population in 2000. The line represents a power-law fit to the data.\nLog-log plots are also useful for demonstrating power-law or scaling relations. A power law,\nin which the exponent b is not necessarily one, is a generalization of the familiar proportionality. Taking the logarithm of both sides, we get\nlog y = blogx + loga\nso a power-law relationship is a straight line on a logy vs logx plot, with slope of b. Referring back to the bureaucracy example, the slope of the line shown is 0.79, indicating that the number of state employees increases somewhat less rapidly than the population. An economist would note that this is an example of \u2018economy of scale\u2019.",

        "raw_content": "A call or visit from Child Protective Services (the investigatory arm of the Department of Family and Children Services) can be terrifying. Many parents do not know where to turn when they are contacted by a CPS investigator. The Internet is full of sites advising parents to simply slam the door or hang up the phone, but this response is unwise. CPS has a duty to investigate all credible allegations of child abuse or neglect. Failure to perform that duty has resulted in some of the horrific stories we have seen in the news over the past few years. At the same time, parents have a duty to protect their children from unnecessary trauma and to protect their family from unreasonable invasions of privacy. The wisdom of how to react when CPS comes calling is nuanced and requires consultation with an attorney who specializes in child welfare law.",

        "raw_content": "\"Don't talk unless you have to,\" is a line spoken by Bruce Dern's \"Detective\" character in an alternate opening to THE DRIVER(which can be found on Twilight Time's new Blu-ray). That is a nice summation of the characters in this film for sure. Supposedly, Ryan O'Neal's character only speaks 350 words in the whole film. I believe this film got some attention when Nicolas Winding Refn's DRIVE came a few years back. It's an obvious inspiration and it's not difficult to see why(though Refn may not acknowledge it). THE DRIVER is a stripped down, throwback-noir, car chase thriller and it's a damn good one. It exists in this bleak, stylized version of Los Angeles that Walter Hill and cinematographer Philip Lathrop have so excellently created. Hill himself was an uncredited 2nd AD on BULLITT and he seems to have picked up a thing or two about filming effective car chases. And if you've not seen Ryan O'Neal outside of comedies, watch him in this(and of course BARRY LYNDON) for some evidence of his ability to be really dramatically awesome. And Bruce Dern? Don't even get me started, I love that guy. His filmography is littered with great performances and movies that I love. This is up there for me with the best Dern one can find out there. His character is quite gruff and arrogant, but he's full of quotable lines. Between this movie and Michael Ritchie's SMILE, I dare anyone to not become a Dern fan after viewing them.\nTHE DRIVER is absolutely a film I count among my all-time favorites. It's my favorite Walter Hill film and that is saying something as he's made some fantastic stuff in his time. For a director to crank out a resume consisting of HARD TIMES, THE DRIVER, THE WARRIORS, THE LONG RIDERS, SOUTHERN COMFORT, 48 HOURS and STREETS OF FIRE all in a row is nearly unrivaled. Just an amazing run of films, all of which I like quite a bit(controversially, I may even prefer SOUTHERN COMFORT to DELIVERANCE). I first discovered THE DRIVER via Danny Peary's Guide For the Film Fanatic(my favorite book ever). It had a short entry in the book but it was enough to catch my eye. Once I tracked it down on VHS(as I recall, I had to special order it from the video store I was working for at the time), it stayed in my collection until the dvd came out years later. Now that this Blu-ray is out I can let my dvd go. I will never not have this movie in my collection. The fact that this movie is out on Blu-ray now is beyond thrilling for me. All is right with the world.\nTwilight Time has included an isolated score track(Michael Small's music is great), an alternate opening and the trailer. Transfer looks good of course too. The neon of the Torchy's sign never shown so bright.\nThis amazing piece of cinema can be purchased in High-def via Screen Archives:\nhttps://www.screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm/ID/25385/THE-DRIVER-1978/",

Food poverty and the rise of these diseases have been linked together by the FPH. \u201cIt is a condition we believed should have died out,\u201d said John Middleton of the FPH. \u201cIt\u2019s getting worse because people can\u2019t afford good quality food.\u201d Since the global financial crisis, poverty in Britain has been a topic of great debate. Wages have been consistently below the rate of inflation since 2008. Gout is a kind of arthritis that can be caused by obesity and a diet rich in chemical compounds called purines, found in foods like sardine and liver.\nHealthy diet and lifestyle choices are pertinent in the prevention and treatment of gout. If you are suffering from the effects of gout, see Dr. Mayer Salama, D.P.M. of Salama Foot Care. Dr. Salama will provide you with quality foot and ankle treatment.\nPeople typically get gout because of a poor diet. Foods rich in purines like turkey, red meats, and liver can affect the body\u2019s ability to excrete uric acid, which in turn leads to hyperuricema, the blood condition that causes gout to develop. Genetic predisposition is also a factor. The children of parents who have had gout frequently have as much as a one in five chance of developing it themselves.",

        "raw_content": "Medicare Mandates\nThere has been a lot of worries and fears of what will happen if the Supreme Court rules against the mandate and quite possibly, the whole affordable care act that was presented by Barack Obama\u2019s administration. According to reports and polls, the number of American citizens who don\u2019t have health insurance went up from 15% in 2008 to 17% last year. So this means that the new private insurance system is failing to increase the number of insured people, but it is also increasing the number of uninsured people, which is a disaster.\nThe situation in the state of West Virginia is more stable, as the number of uninsured people is the same as last year at 18% of the residents. Despite this stability, but 18% of the population is uninsured is way above the standards and national numbers of the United States. In West Virginia there is another problem, especially for the insured citizens of the state. As the premiums of full family insurance is on the rise, noticeably. Citizens who first enrolled paid a total sum of 12,554 dollars three years ago, this number increased by 16% the next year, as the premium increased to 14,540 dollars. The employer picks up the 10,150 dollars of the cost, but this will lead to decreasing the wages over the course of time. This is not all, as it can also lead to the relocation of the factories that are located in West Virginia.\nThere are some hard decisions to be made every year. These choices include, increasing the employee copayments & deductibles due to the high charges of insurance. Another option is to increase property taxes or to cancel road maintenance, the sheriff, EMS and other programs of that sort. For small businesses, it is even harder, because they don\u2019t have the ability to increase their yearly revenue by increasing taxes. As for big businesses and firms, they are simply moving out with their operations outside the U.S and they take in more premiums.\nThere is only one solution for this predicament; the solution is Medicare for everyone. Having one system with one payer will insure that no increase in costs will take place and it will have the ability to cover all the residents. This is why, the govt. should really examine and look into the Reid plan that aims to provide every one with Medicare and expand it exponentially. This plan was presented by Senator Harry Reid 3 years ago. He stated the possibility of an optional purchase for people who are 55-64 years who don\u2019t yet have a private insurance policy. Responding to that, all of the hospital and physician accompanied by insurance lobbies refused it. Some of them had logical reasons, and some of them were just looking after themselves.",

        "raw_content": "Discussion in 'Linguistics' started by Sorcerer, Jan 28, 2014.\nSorcerer Put a Spell on you Registered Senior Member\nYou find that people speak a second language with some kind of accent, heavy or light, that relects their native language. Many Indians, for example, speak English with a similar lilt. But some people are almost perfect, and actors can fake a different accent quite convincingly, presumably with considerable practice.\nSo are accents just a result of the habits instilled in childhood, or are there physiological differences as well? Just curious.\nSorcerer, Jan 28, 2014\nYes, the human brain is most capable of learning language at early childhood, when it has all these extra neurons and unpruned neural pathways to do it, after childhood though few people will every be able to master a second language as well as the first.\nThere must be physical things going on to.\nIts not all about monkey see monkey do, as how did accents start in first place?\nSo there must be some physical aspect to why accents exist, i.e why someone in one region speaks like this and different from someone 100 miles away.\nIn a small country like england, you see this alot, and it can be quite wide the differences. So there must be little differences in areas, or locations that play a part in this to, not only repeating what they have heard.\nLike london, is the most well known english accent, with cockney. But go 50-60 miles away and you can have quite a different accent from that area. Just 50 miles away from london, and some of the people become very hard for londoners to understand sometimes.\nAlthough it must have to do with repeating what you heard, there probably are subtle differences(in terms of energies) in areas that effect it to.\nSo are accents just a result of the habits instilled in childhood, or are there physiological differences as well?\nThere are certainly physiological differences between individuals. Musculature, shape of the tongue and other speech organs, as well as programming in the speech center of the brain. Nonetheless, except in extreme cases, these are not sufficient to prevent a young child from exactly mimicking the sounds he hears his parents and other people producing.\nOf course this flexibility attenuates with age. Sometime in adolescence the speech center begins to lose its facility to mimic unfamiliar sounds, or even realize that they're different from the familiar ones. At the same time, the muscles and other tissue in the speech organs lose their flexibility, making it difficult to produce new kinds of sounds.\nInterestingly, it appears that when a person has learned two languages by this age, both his brain and his muscles have learned that there's more than one way to talk, so they hang onto that flexibility. A person who has been speaking both English and Spanish since childhood, even late childhood, will have a much easier time learning to speak near-perfect French, Czech or Mandarin (to pick three languages that are quite difficult for speakers of English and Spanish) than someone who speaks only one of those two languages. Even if he doesn't begin learning the third language until adulthood!\nAs I noted, it's not terribly difficult to learn a second language perfectly until age ten, and for many people even a few years later. But by twenty it's tough. If you're really good you might manage to become \"the charming foreigner who speaks our language so well,\" but you'll never pass for one of them. Every succeeding decade makes it even more difficult. And don't forget that the grammar and vocabulary are just as hard to absorb as the sounds.\nThere must be physical things going on to. Its not all about monkey see monkey do, as how did accents start in first place? So there must be some physical aspect to why accents exist, i.e why someone in one region speaks like this and different from someone 100 miles away.\nThere are a few physical influences. People in warm southern regions use breathing as a way to regulate body temperature, so their speech has more vowels, and either longer words or a grammar that requires more words or complex inflections. People in cold northern regions try to conserve their breath, so their languages have more consonants and their sentences are more compact. Compare languid Bengali to terse Norwegian; they are both descended from the same ancestral language: Proto-Indo-European.\nHawaiian is an unusual case. The first migrants to Hawaii spent a lot of their time navigating the ocean in small boats. There was a lot of ambient noise, and in addition the boats were not very close together. They had to shout over the noise of the sea. For this reason, the phonetics of their language became very simplified so no two words sounded very similar. Hawaiian has only 8 consonants: H K L M N P W and the glottal stop. Tongan tabu became Hawaiian kapu, and Samoan salofa became Hawaiian aloha.\nPeople absorb the sounds and even the words of their neighboring languages. But even without that, there is simply drift, as languages change subtly over the decades and centuries. Electronic media have had a profound stabilizing effect on the world's languages, but before radio, movies and TV, there was very little to keep people 200 miles apart from slowly changing their language--both phonetics and vocabulary. Remember that until the invention of industrial transportation technology (starting with railroads) most people never traveled more than 20 miles from the place of their birth. Sound changes happened spuriously, almost at random, because there was no force to stop them.\nAnd of course the same is true of vocabulary changes. Something happens in one region that inspires people to invent a new word (or more likely a combination of two words), and the people in the next region don't understand it.\nEven written language helps stabilize spoken language. But until the mid-19th century, most people were illiterate. And before the invention of the printing press there simply wasn't very much to read, so learning to read was very difficult and kinda pointless except for the priests and the nobility.\nSo now we have an unusual phenomenon in English: the written language corrupting the spoken language. People are pronouncing the C in \"arctic,\" which has been silent ever since we borrowed the word from the Norman French a thousand years ago. And they're pronouncing the T in \"often,\" which has been silent for more than 100 years.\nWhat's next, the S in \"island\"? That was a typographer's error! He thought \"island\" was related to French \"isle.\" It's not. \"Ig\" and \"land\" are the Old Norse words for \"something on the water\" and \"land.\"\nThere are certainly physiological differences between individuals . . . . [Bulk of quoted post removed for concision. -- Moderator] . . . . \"Ig\" and \"land\" are the Old Norse words for \"something on the water\" and \"land.\"",

        "raw_content": "Purdue University Study Finds Plants Have Unique Lock To Control Expression of Genes\nPurdue University\u2019s Joe Ogas led a study that showed how plants using repressive states to control gene expression can quickly and easily destroy that repressive state. The findings may be key to developing new ways to control plant gene expression.\nWest Lafayette, IN (June 21, 2018) - Purdue University scientists have discovered evidence that the repressive structures that plants use to keep genes turned off is built with a potential self-destruct switch. The findings offer insight into ways to control gene expression to alter plants\u2019 characteristics.\nJoe Ogas, associate professor and associate head of Purdue\u2019s Department of Biochemistry, led the study, which included scientists from Purdue, the Shanghai Center for Plant Stress Biology, and Emory University. Their findings were published in the journal The Plant Cell.\nA number of labs have previously shown that plants can create a repressive state by placing an epigenetic mark on chromatin, the material used to create chromosomes. Proteins meant to transcribe, or turn on, genes ignore those genes with the epigenetic mark.\nThe researchers found that a variant of a histone - proteins that are the building blocks of chromatin - is present in chromatin with this repressive epigenetic mark. About 90 percent of the time the epigenetic mark, called H3K27me3, is present in a plant, the H2A histone has been replaced with a variant called H2A.Z.\n\u201cThat histone variant and the epigenetic mark are both components of a lock that keeps a gene turned off. The inclusion of H2A.Z is interesting, however, because it\u2019s potentially easier for the plant to blow up that lock,\u201d Ogas said. \u201cThis isn't something we typically see in animals. Our data indicate that this combination is prevalent in plants and may contribute to a more dynamic expression state for the gene, potentially enabling rapid change.\"\nOther proteins may recognize the H2A.Z histone and alter the properties of chromatin containing this variant. Ogas said that essentially takes the legs out from under H3K27me3, removing the mark and allowing the gene to be transcribed.\n\u201cThis isn\u2019t the only way that genes are turned on or off, but understanding this relationship between H2A.Z and H3K27me3 is likely to shed light on the mechanism of repression of many genes important to plant development,\u201d said Ogas, whose work was done on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.\nThe findings are important for plant scientists and breeders who want to manipulate genetic expression in plants. For example, oil in soybeans is created only in the seeds, but it might be desirable to remove the epigenetic mark to allow for oil creation in other parts of the plant or in other types of plants.\n\u201cThe inclusion of H2A.Z in this type of chromatin may contribute to the observed developmental flexibility of plants,\u201d Ogas said. \u201cIf you\u2019re going to build a stable expression state, it suggests constraints you need to take into consideration.\u201d\nThe National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Emory University, National Natural Science Foundation of China, National Kay R&D Program of China, Chinese Academy of Sciences and the National Cancer Institute supported this work.\nThe Chromatin Remodelers PKL and PIE1 Act in an Epigenetic Pathway that Determines H3K27me3 Homeostasis in Arabidopsis\nBenjamin Carter, Brett Bishop, Kwok Ki Ho, Ru Huang, Wei Jia, Heng Zhang, Pete E Pascuzzi, Roger Deal, Joe Ogas\nSelective, tissue-specific gene expression is facilitated by the epigenetic modification H3K27me3 (trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3) in plants and animals. Much remains to be learned about how H3K27me3-enriched chromatin states are constructed and maintained. Here we identify a genetic interaction in Arabidopsis thaliana between the chromodomain helicase DNA-binding chromatin remodeler PICKLE (PKL), which promotes H3K27me3 enrichment, and the SWR1-family remodeler PHOTOPERIOD INDEPENDENT EARLY FLOWERING 1 (PIE1), which incorporates the histone variant H2A.Z. Chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing and RNA-sequencing reveal that PKL, PIE1, and the H3K27 methyltransferase CURLY LEAF act in a common gene expression pathway and are required for H3K27me3 levels genome-wide. Additionally, H3K27me3-enriched genes are largely a subset of H2A.Z-enriched genes, further supporting the functional linkage between these marks. We also found that recombinant PKL acts as a prenucleosome maturation factor, indicating that it promotes retention of H3K27me3. These data support the existence of an epigenetic pathway in which PIE1 promotes H2A.Z, which in turn promotes H3K27me3 deposition. After deposition, PKL promotes retention of H3K27me3 after DNA replication and/or transcription. Our analyses thus reveal roles for H2A.Z and ATP-dependent remodelers in construction and maintenance of H3K27me3-enriched chromatin in plants.",

        "raw_content": "Home / Chip Ganassi / Dario Franchitti / IZOD IndyCar / LJC / Concussion forces Dario Franchitti to retire from driving\nConcussion forces Dario Franchitti to retire from driving\nThe crash was terrifying - and ultimately career-ending.\nOn the last lap of the second race of the Grand Prix of Houston double-header, Dario Franchitti sailed into Turn 5 and right into the back of the disabled car of Takuma Sato, launching the No. 10 Target car into the catchfence. Shards of carbon fiber and chunks of the car launched into the grandstands, injuring 13 spectators.\nThe Holmatro Safety Team loaded Franchitti into an ambulance to transport him the few blocks to Memorial Hermann Hospital, where he was treated for a concussion, a fractured spine, and a broken ankle.\nIt could have been much, much worse.\nFranchitti had immediate surgery on his ankle and remained in the Houston hospital for several days. Upon his release, he headed to Indianapolis for further treatment. By all reports, he planned to be back in the car for the beginning of the season.\nHowever, on Thursday Franchitti announced that, on the advice of doctors, he's retiring from racing.\n\"One month removed from the crash, and based upon the expert advice of the doctors who have treated and assessed my head and spinal injuries post-accident, it is their best medical opinion that I must stop racing,\" Franchitti said.\n\"They have made it very clear that the risks involved in further racing are too great and could be detrimental to my long term well-being. Based on this medical advice, I have no choice but to stop.\"\nShockwaves rolled through the motorsports community. INDYCAR released a statement:\n\"As a four-time IndyCar Series champion and a three-time Indianapolis 500 winner, Dario Franchitti has etched his name among the greats of this sport, and his legacy will continue to influence future generations of competitors. His passion was born, in part, from a deep love for the sport and a reverence to its history, and Dario carries that heritage everywhere he travels and shares it with everyone he meets. Dario's leadership on and off the track has helped shape INDYCAR, and we look forward to him remaining involved in the sport he loves.\"\nTeam owner Chip Ganassi participated in a teleconference Friday. His first words were to reassure fans about Franchitti's health.\n\"I don't want anybody to read into comments that Dario is not going to make a full recovery. Medically, he has been told he'll make a 100 percent recovery. We've been told that from day one. It's not like he has any injuries that he won't recover from. These are all injuries that are recoverable. I don't want anybody thinking he's maimed for life or anything like that.\"\nWhen pressed about what injury prompted Franchitti's decision, Ganassi said, \"We can't talk about the specifics of the injuries, and again, I don't want to belabor that point, but it's obviously around his head, concussions, things like that, has to do with a repeat of that type of concussion could be serious.\"\nGanassi, whose driving career ended prematurely because of a head injury, asserted that Franchitti will be a great ambassador for IndyCar, that the Scotsman will have a role with the organization.\n\"I think this is just the turning of a page of sorts and the beginning of a new chapter in his career. I think he'll make a great ambassador to the sport,\" said Ganassi. \"I can't think of anybody who would be better, as somebody that has worldwide recognition and a true interest in the sport of Indy car racing. We want to help him with that. We have a common interest in the sport, in furthering the sport, and we'll do it together I'm sure.\"\nFranchitti speaks with a fan after driver introductions\nat Texas Motor Speedway, June 2012\nGanassi added, \"I've always shied away from saying this, but because he won't be driving again, I guess, I think it's safe to say that his name is up there with all the greats, like Foyt, Andretti, Unser. We've all seen the statistics. I was reminded yesterday of him winning the Daytona 24 Hours, the Indianapolis 500, the Sebring 12 Hours, all within a year period.\n\"These are things that no one has ever done in consecutive races. Again, you look at 31 career wins, tied for eighth all time. Only driver in history to win three titles consecutively. Those are no small feats.\"\nIndeed they are not. The track will not be the same without him.\nFranchitti's injuries may be career-ending, even life-changing. His ankle injury required two surgeries, but at least he has his ankles and legs, unlike former Ganassi teammate Alex Zanardi. Zanardi's legs were sheared off above the knee in a horrifying Sept. 2001 crash.\nFormer driver, now team owner Sam Schmidt\nat the Grand Prix of Houston, 2013\nBroken ankle not withstanding, Franchitti is able to walk - unlike Sam Schmidt, whose accident while testing in 2000 rendered the talented young driver a quadriplegic.\nFranchitti can look back and say his career was successful by any measure, unlike Ganassi driver Tony Renna, whose career was full of promise when he died in a crash during a tire test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.\nAs heart-rending as it is that the charismatic Scotsman will no longer be strapping in to race, the sadness is mixed with gratitude that Franchitti is even alive and able to make such a decision. Too many racers - including Greg Moore and Franchitti's good friend Dan Wheldon - didn't get the opportunity to choose life.\nWe're grateful that Dario Franchitti got to make that choice.\nConcussion forces Dario Franchitti to retire from driving Reviewed by LJC on Friday, November 15, 2013 Rating: 5\nTags Chip Ganassi X Dario Franchitti X IZOD IndyCar X LJC\nEric S. November 16, 2013 at 12:58 PM\nI hope they can find a way to keep him in the sport, he's a great ambassador for Indycar, It's imposable to not like him, he is a champion in every sense of the word and he will be greatly missed on the track.\nHabibur Rahman July 26, 2015 at 7:17 AM",

        "raw_content": "Written by Niccolo Machiavelli\nReviewed by Alexandra J. (age 10)\nThe Little Prince is about a young boy who lived on his own asteroid called Asteroid B-612 one day he noticed a sprout in his asteroid he kept watering it over the days and he noticed there was some wind so he put a glass cover over it and one day it was a beautiful rose. He talked all day with this rose and loved it like a sister. One day the rose said \u201c you need to go explore the universe\u201d \u201cAre you sure?\u201d said the Little Prince \u201c Yes\u201d said the rose so off he went meeting many people on the way, and he ended up taming a fox! He made it to earth and landed in the desert and met a man. The Little Prince called him \u201cThe Pilot\u201d and The Pilot thought The Little Prince was quite a character. They went on adventures together and on their last day the little prince decided he wanted to go home in order to do that he had to...\nNope not gonna tell you! You have to read the book to find out. I really enjoyed this book especially when I was younger my dad read it to me. I felt like it had a very important lesson: there are friends everywhere you just have to look for them. I think it is a good book to be read to. It also was a book that you could cuddle up on the couch and read straight through it. My favorite part was when the fox and the prince met for the first time. It was cute because the fox was so nice to him. This book made me feel happy.\nI would recommend this book for 2-5 graders because there is some stuff that needs to be explained but other than that I think it's good. The stuff that needs to be explained is quotes and figure of speech sentences. But i would also reccomend you tell other people about this book because i would call it a very good way of life book.\nAlexandra J. is a student in Ms. Crawford's 5th Grade Class",

        "title": "140 Twin Cities chefs join effort to promote sustainable seafood this month - StarTribune.com",
        "raw_content": "140 Twin Cities chefs join effort to promote sustainable seafood this month\nThe James Beard Foundation is calling on chefs to help change the way Americans consume seafood. Twin Cities chefs have signed on, in huge numbers.\nWhen Tim McKee talks, people listen.\nChefs, especially. The chef/owner of Octo Fishbar in St. Paul \u2014 and vice president of development for the Fish Guys, which supplies seafood to hundreds of Minnesota restaurants and supermarkets \u2014 decided to step beyond the shallow hoopla that\u2019s ordinarily associated with such marketing-driven designations as National Seafood Month.\nYes, October is National Seafood Month. Rather than use it as an excuse to dive into Lobsterfest or some other promotional event, McKee chose to dedicate the month\u2019s 31 days to raising awareness on the serious subject of seafood sustainability.\nHe decided to become a disciple of the Smart Catch program, which provides resources and support to chefs so they can purchase and serve seafood in environmentally responsible ways, through both well-managed aquaculture enterprises and responsible fisheries.\nMcKee started making calls and sending texts to local chefs. Before he knew it, Minnesota\u2019s first James Beard award-winning chef had signed on more than 140 participants \u2014 most in the Twin Cities metro area \u2014 asking them to feature one menu item that showcased a sustainably sourced seafood.\n\u201cChefs are like herding cats, but very few people declined,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s encouraging to hear people say, \u2018That makes sense\u2019 and \u2018We can do that.\u2019 That\u2019s a real testament to our culinary community.\u201d\nPhilanthropist Paul G. Allen created the Smart Catch program in Seattle in 2015. A year later, the James Beard Foundation stepped in. It was a natural fit. The New York City-based culinary organization\u2019s mission is to \u201ccelebrate, nurture and honor chefs and other leaders making America\u2019s food culture more delicious, diverse and sustainable for everyone.\u201d\n\u201cThey designed a great program,\u201d said Katherine Miller, the foundation\u2019s vice president of impact. \u201cBut we have the reach. We can talk to chefs without having to introduce who we are and why we\u2019re doing it. Because of our awards and programs, we\u2019re considered an arbiter of what\u2019s good in our food system. Which is why we felt we had an opportunity to take our own connections in the community, to help influence and educate chefs, and consumers.\u201d\nThe program has caught on, growing from 65 participants in that first year to more than 500 restaurants and counting, in 44 states. Miller attributes much of that growth to efforts like McKee\u2019s.\n\u201cHaving local chefs taking leadership positions, going to their peers and saying, \u2018This is what we need to do,\u2019 that\u2019s what\u2019s going to take this program to the next level,\u201d she said. \u201cHaving a chef like Tim step up is a huge deal for the program. No one has jumped on it the way that [the Twin Cities] has. This is, by far, the biggest response by a chef community in a single city.\u201d\nThere\u2019s a reason why the foundation is trying to reach consumers \u2014 and drive the demand-driven supply chain \u2014 via chefs.\n\u201cCollectively, Americans eat the majority of their seafood in restaurants,\u201d said Miller. \u201cWe want to be able to enjoy seafood for generations to come, and the only way to do that is to introduce new options for consumers, and diversify our plate. Who better to introduce something new \u2014 and make it delicious \u2014 than chefs?\u201d\nFor diners, here\u2019s how it works: Look for the sticker on the door or window (it was designed by Minneapolis artist Terrence Payne) that signifies participating restaurants. Order \u2014 and enjoy \u2014 the designated menu item. Don\u2019t forget to photograph it, and post the image on social media with the hashtags @smartcatchMN or #keepoceansfishy.\nOh, and use those hashtags to search Twitter and Instagram for participating restaurants; it\u2019s going to take a few weeks for the James Beard Foundation to list them on its website, jamesbeard.org.\nFor Scott Pampuch, chef at Mc\u00adKinney Roe in downtown Minneapolis, adhering to the program was a snap. As McKee discovered with many of his inquiries, the restaurant already incorporates sustainably sourced seafood \u2014 shrimp, salmon and scallops \u2014 into its menu.\n\u201cCost and quality are the two questions that every chef asks of their purveyors,\u201d said Pampuch. \u201cNow, the third question has to be about sustainability. If you\u2019re not asking that third question, you\u2019re not being a responsible chef.\u201d\nAside from menu basics, Pampuch is marking the month with weekly Smart Catch specials. Last week it was prawns, this week it\u2019s branzino, and next week he\u2019ll be featuring trout.\nWhat\u2019s going to happen when Movember rolls around, and men\u2019s health issues replace swordfish and mackerel on the national calendar?\n\u201cThis is about awareness,\u201d said McKee. \u201cI\u2019d love to see more restaurants focusing on sustainability. This program will convince chefs there\u2019s a right way to do this. It\u2019s evolved from, \u2018This is something I could do\u2019 to \u2018This is something I should be doing.\u2019\u2009\u201d",

        "title": "EA Confirms Multiple Eras, Single Player Campaign For 'Battlefront' Sequel | The Star Wars Underworld",
        "raw_content": "EA Confirms Multiple Eras, Single Player Campaign For 'Battlefront' Sequel\nElectronic Arts held their quarterly earnings call yesterday, updating investors on how the company has been doing and what their plans are going forward. This included updates on many of their games in production, including their sequel to 2015's Star Wars Battlefront. During the Battlefront update, EA announced that the game would include two of the most requested aspects that were omitted from the first game: single player campaign and multiple eras. According to the prepared statements from the call,\n\"We\u2019re thrilled to bring a new Star Wars Battlefront game to fans worldwide in the 2017 holiday season. In the past two years, Rogue One and The Force Awakens have opened new storylines and captured the imagination of hundreds of millions of Star Wars fans. We\u2019ve listened closely to our passionate Star Wars Battlefront community, and expanded our existing game with more great content and experiences since its launch. As that game continues to thrive, we have also heard our players\u2019 desire for even more depth and progression. Our next Star Wars Battlefront will be even bigger, taking players into more locations, and allowing them to play with more heroes and characters across multiple Star Wars eras. There will be new ways to play, including an all-new single-player campaign, and much, much more that we are excited to share with our players in the months ahead. To build a game of this magnitude, we\u2019ve brought together three great studios \u2013 DICE, Motive, and Criterion \u2013 and aligned their areas of expertise to deliver an amazing experience in the next Star Wars Battlefront\"\nThis is good news for fans who felt the first game lacked the depth of previous Battlefront games. The inclusion of a single player campaign gives the game a greater significance withing the Star Wars canon. As for the inclusion of multiple eras, it seems likely that EA will include content from the sequel trilogy era (specifically The Force Awakens) in addition to content from the Original Trilogy. Given the game's fall release date, it also seems possible that content from The Last Jedi could be included. As for fans hoping that this will include the prequel era, specifically the Clone Wars, I'm less optimistic. Not including that era in the first game spoke volumes about EA's interest in playing in that era. It's likely that their decision to expand the game to multiple eras is limited to eras where new movies are coming out.\nThe Star Wars Battlefront sequel is slated for a fall 2017 release!\nBattlefront Dominic Jones EA Gaming News News Star Wars: Battlefront",

        "raw_content": "Martha Hubbard named canon for Northern and Western Region\nBishop Alan M. Gates has announced the appointment of the Rev. Martha L. Hubbard to serve as a regional canon in the Diocese of Massachusetts, with two additional appointments to be made in upcoming weeks.\nCOURTESY PHOTO The Rev. Martha L. Hubbard\nEach of the three regional canons will serve a geographic area of the diocese encompassing four deaneries and will have three primary responsibilities: lay leadership support and development in congregations; transition ministry with congregations and clergy involved in search processes for new ordained leadership; and clergy wellness and family support. The three regional canons will live and work within their respective geographical regions. They will serve as members of the bishop\u2019s senior leadership team and will report to the canon to the ordinary.The Rev. Martha Hubbard, currently the rector of St. Paul\u2019s Church in Newburyport, will serve as canon for the Northern and Western Region comprising the 57 congregations, as well as other church-related institutions, in the diocese\u2019s Merrimack Valley, North Shore, Mystic Valley and Concord River deaneries. Her anticipated start date in the position is Sept. 10.\nRegional canons are still to be named for the Southern Region, comprising the South Shore, Taunton River, Mt. Hope-Buzzards Bay, and Cape and Island deaneries, and the Central Region, comprising the Boston Harbor, Alewife, Charles River and Neponset River deaneries.\nThis new regional canon staffing structure is a result of the diocesan mission strategy development process begun in 2015, which surfaced a desire in congregations for closer connections with one another and with diocesan staff. (Find the mission strategy adopted by the Diocesan Convention in 2016 here.)\nThe search process for regional canons got underway at the end of February, after three regional listening sessions were held in January to help refine the regional canon job description.\nThe Rev. Martha Hubbard brings to her new role 25 years of parish leadership experience and a dedication to education and formation as central to congregational development. She has been the dean of the Merrimack Valley Deanery since 2016 and has been active in deanery leadership as a co-convener of the deanery assembly. She is a founding member of the Lower Merrimack Valley Collaborative of six Episcopal churches seeking congregational vitality and development together. She is also a past president of the Barbara C. Harris Camp and Conference Center Board of Directors and has been a mentor in the Making Excellent Disciples Program.\n\u201cMartha Hubbard has demonstrated significant gifts for exercising creative models of parish ministry,\u201d Gates said. \u201cThe Lower Merrimack Valley Collaborative, of which Martha has been a key leader, reflects an emphasis on joint ministry, collegiality and mutual support\u2013just what will be needed from our regional canons. Her service as deanery dean has engendered the respect and gratitude of her colleagues. I am so pleased that she has accepted my appointment as canon for the Northern and Western Region.\u201d\n\u201cI am honored to be called to serve as the regional canon to the Northern and Western Region of our diocese. I\u2019m so looking forward to working with the lay and clergy leaders of this region. My prayer is to be a resource and support as we continue to find creative and life-giving ways to serve God and draw others into the Episcopal Church in this part of our diocese,\u201d Hubbard said.\nPrior to her call as rector of St. Paul\u2019s Church in Newburyport in 2007, she served for four years as the rector of St. Augustine of Canterbury in Wiesbaden, Germany, and was a member of the Council of Advice to the Bishop of the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe. She also served for eight years as the rector of St. Mark\u2019s Church in Penn Yan, N.Y. While in the Diocese of Rochester, she chaired its budget committee and was a bishop search committee member.\nShe holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from SUNY Albany and a Master of Divinity degree from Berkeley at Yale Divinity School, where she was the recipient of its Muehl and Mersick preaching prizes. She was ordained to the priesthood in 1994 in the Diocese of Western Massachusetts and served as curate at the Church of the Atonement in Westfield, Mass. Before attending seminary, she was a probation officer in Albany County in New York, working in both adult and juvenile court units.",

Large, PhD, Etienne E. Pracht, PhD\nThis is a 2011 study by the University of South Florida College of Public Health on the potential effects of installing red-light camera systems. This study analyzes several previous studies as well as pointing to issues with why RLC systems are installed. Some new information is revealed that they have received form the Federal Highway Administration(FHWA) about their 2005 RLC Study, the fatalities are ignored in their results, and it turns out that the expected fatalities actually went up, and those fatalities were ignored in the calculation of total crash costs before and after installation of RLCs, resulting in a net increase in costs after RLCs were included. Other issues with the FHWA are mentioned, such as their lack of updating their own studies and mentioning other studies that they sponsored as they said they would do. Also mentioned are the issues with the red light camera industry influencing News media, stating: \"special interests that profit from cameras have threatened to reduce or withdraw their advertising revenues if the news is not reported that RLCs provide a safety benefit\". One of the conclusions reached in the USF report is, \"The studies that integrated relevant independent variables in the analysis found red light cameras were associated with increases in crashes and injuries\". One recommendation made in the report is that the federal standards for intersection engineering and signal timing from 2000 be reinstated and enforced in order to make intersections safer.\nThis is a brief 9 page report. There is some new data related specifically to other reports that have been released on RLCs. The conclusions are supported by the data supplied.",

        "raw_content": "Purely Beneficial\nOxygen Oasis\nImagine beating stage IV cancer only to be left with debilitating injuries from radiation therapy, surviving a near-fatal car crash with life altering effects of a traumatic brain injury (TBI), or suffering from PTSD-induced insomnia and panic attacks after returning home from the battlefield.\nWhat if all of the above could be remedied through a natural, holistic solution, without a cocktail of potentially damaging and addictive prescription drugs? Such a solution already exists, according to Victoria Bliss, CEO of Oxygen OasisHyperbaric Wellness Center in Langhorne, PA. Bliss has seen patients recover from all of the scenarios listed above, with the help of nature\u2019s purest ingredient: oxygen.\nSpecifically,Bliss is talking about hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Bliss first discovered the true healing impact of HBOT when her husband suffered radiation injuries after treating for stage IV cancer.\nHBOT is a noninvasive therapy that works by delivering 100 percent oxygen at pressures greater than two to three times the normal atmospheric pressure to a patient in a chamber. HBOT enhances the body\u2019s ability to heal by increasing oxygen concentration in the body to 15 to 20 times greater than normal at the cellular level.\nThe successful results of her husband\u2019s HBOT treatments inspired Bliss to open Oxygen Oasis Hyperbaric Wellness Center, a Joint Commission-accredited facility offering treatment in both multiplace and monoplace hyperbaric chambers. Treatments range from a minimum of 40 sessions to as many 120 sessions, depending on the severity of a patient\u2019s condition.\n\u201cThe standard protocol is an initial 40 treatments,\u201d adds Jason Friel, director of safety and operations at Oxygen Oasis. \u201cTra- ditionally, no matter where you go in the world, HBOT is prescribed in blocks of 40 treatments. Treatments start at five days per week for the first two to three weeks of treat- ment, and then patients can reduce their treatments to three days per week.\u201d\nBliss and Friel say hyperbaric oxygen therapy produces numerous benefits, such as staving off infection and stimulating the growth of new blood vessels to improve blood flow to compromised tissue and bone. HBOT is safe for patients of all ages and doesn\u2019t cause any discernible side effects, unlike the prescription drugs often used to treat most illnesses and injuries.\nThe therapy is often used to address the so-called \u201cspiral effect\u201d\u2014a progression of worsening symptoms that can lead to further injury\u2014in patients who suffer from traumatic brain injury, concussions or even PTSD. Bliss says this effect is commonly seen in military veterans and pro athletes who have suffered numerous concussions and head trauma, causing irritability, sleeplessness, loss of memory, and a building anger.\nSurvivors of war can be especially hard hit by the spiral effect. Bliss estimates more than 800,000 veterans who have returned home from recent military conflicts have experienced some kind of brain injury, which is often treated with medication. Fur- thermore, she says as many as 22 military veterans commit suicide each day, though she suggests accidental prescription-drug overdoses may push the number to as high as 40 suicides per day.\n\u201cVeterans are prescribed up to 16 different drugs\u2014for sleeping, waking up, memory, pain, depression and more,\u201d Bliss says. \u201cIt ends up becoming one major cocktail of drugs that only mask symp- toms, it doesn\u2019t cure them. If you drink a glass of scotch and mix it with these drugs, overdose and death are an unfortunate possibility.\u201d\nDifficulty sleeping tends to be the most significant chal- lenge for those coping with PTSD, according to Friel. He says the first five oxygen treat- ments alone can help patients rest \u201cand make them feel more relaxed and less stressed.\u201d\nBliss references a U.S. Marine Corps veteran\u2014\u201cSergeant Nick\u201d\u2014as an example of the therapy\u2019s success in treating TBI. After numerous concus- sions resulting from his convoy getting hit by an improvised explosive device while deployed in the Middle East, Sergeant Nick suffered severe traumatic brain injury; the only memory he has is of being dragged out of the fire. After the incident, he experi- enced a rapid decline in his quality of life\u2014 insomnia, memory loss, anxiety and debili- tating migraines. Sergeant Nick stated his migraines came to a halt after one HBOT treatment.\n\u201cSergeant Nick\u2019s migraines were so bad, he couldn\u2019t even watch videos at one point,\u201d Bliss recalls. \u201cIt\u2019s amazing to see how far he\u2019s come since day one. Before treating withHBOT, Sergeant Nick said he was pretty much a zombie because he was on many different medications for years. After HBOT, he has seen a drastic improvement in his quality of life.\u201d According to Ser- geant Nick, HBOT is the best treatment he has ever re- ceived. After trying every type of treat- ment available and every medication prescribed for him, he says HBOT helped him more in two days than a year\u2019s worth of medications.\nOxygen Oasis is focused on bringing a greater awareness to this cause through its first annual \u201cNominate a Veteran Event,\u201d in which two veterans are selected from a lengthy list of nominations sent in from the public. In partneringwith theNationalHyperbaric Asso- ciation and the nonprofit organizationWalking Point for PTSD & TBI,Bliss intends to continue to extend Oxygen Oasis\u2019 outreach to veterans in need.\nAlthough helping military veterans is a particular passion for Bliss, she\u2019s happy when any individual benefits from the therapy\u2014whether it\u2019s someone with a non- healing wound, autism, chronic pain, stroke or other neurological condition (complete list of conditions treated can be found on Oxygen Oasis\u2019 website; o2oasis.com). No matter the need, Bliss and her team at Oxygen Oasis stand ready to serve, one treatment at a time.",

        "raw_content": "About the Valhalla Campus\nWestchester Community College\u2019s main campus is centrally located on 218 rolling, wooded acres in Valhalla, New York (approximately 45 minutes north of Manhattan). Attractive, contemporary and historic buildings set among the trees house library, computer, science, laboratory, classroom, theater, arts, child care, physical education, and administration facilities.\nIn 1957, the County of Westchester bought the 360-acre John Hartford estate in Valhalla and designated 218 acres for the community college. Although the estate contained a conglomeration of buildings which could be, and were, used for instructional space, it was clear that these facilities would be temporary if the college was to serve its community well. A master plan for construction, drawn in 1961, was followed to complete eight major buildings by 1988: Engineering Technologies (1962), Student Center (1963), Physical Education Building (1964), Classroom Building (1967), Learning Resource Center (1969), Science Building (1978), Academic Arts Building (1981), and Administration Building (1988). Westchester Community College\u2019s Health Science Building, originally constructed by Yale University during its brief prior use of the Hartford estate, was extensively renovated in 1990. Hartford Hall, the beautiful English Tudor manor house of John Hartford, placed on the National Register for Historic Places in 1978, now houses the offices of the President and the Deans of Academic Affairs and Student Personnel Services, College-Community Relations and The Foundation for Westchester Community College. Several other former estate buildings are used by the college for maintenance, receiving, engineering functions, and storage. The resulting mix of modern and traditional architecture, together with the rolling terrain and mature trees and plantings, makes for an unusually beautiful campus.\nClick for information about the college in general.\nStudent housing is not currently offered at this or any Westchester Community College campus.\nCourses Offered in Valhalla\nThe Valhalla campus offers a variety of credit and non-credit courses throughout the year. Nearly all of our degree and certificate programs can be completed at this location. For detailed course information, please visit our Course Schedule pages and select the appropriate semester.\nDirections To The Valhalla Campus\nNeed to know how to get here by bus, train or car?

        "raw_content": "Stunning photographs don\u2019t always require the most expensive equipment (although I do like to think the investment I\u2019ve made in my own kit, certainly does help). What they do require is a skilful eye that is trained to capture your moments in the very best way possible. As with any other profession, there is such a vast difference between doing something as a hobby and refining your craft and skill over the years of hands on experience. Buying a set of golf clubs doesn\u2019t suddenly make you a great golfer or a set of knives an excellent chef. It\u2019s easy to think of saving a bit of money by getting a friend or relative to photograph your wedding or maybe a christening, but there is so much more involved than just pointing a newly bought camera and clicking the shutter. Sadly I\u2019ve heard many truly cringeworthy stories when the results have been viewed.\nI have behind me the advantage of many years experience and thousands of happy customers and since first setting up my own photographic business over 20 years ago, I\u2019ve covered nearly every type of occasion. If you do require something that isn\u2019t listed in the drop down menu or something a bit more specific, I\u2019d be happy to discuss your requirements.\nPlease contact me to make a booking or if you would like further information.",

        "raw_content": "Search - Blues Project :: Planned\nIf You Gotta Make a Fool of Somebody - The Blues Project, Clarke, Rudy\nFrank 'N' Curt: Incensed\nNiartaes Hornpipe\nEndless Sleep - The Blues Project, Nance, Dolores\nShe Raised Her Hand\nDakota Recollection\nGentle Dreams [*] - The Blues Project, Katz, Steve\nTitle: Planned\nMejor De Los Hermanos Carrion\nThis is really Seatrain--not Blues Project\nThe Green Man | Stone Bank, WI United States | 07/03/2004\n\"In 1967, All Kooper left to form Blood Sweat and Tear, briging Steve Katz with him. Danny Kalb dropped out of sight. So, only rhythm section Andy Kulberg (bass & flute) and Roy Blumenfeld (drums) were left to fulfill the Blues Project's contractual obligation. The new band they formed was Seatrain. This album is really the first Seatrain album. It sounds almost nothing like the Blues Project. Rumor was that the band recorded a bunch of songs that they didn't care for to fill this album, and then went to Capitol and recorded what they wanted to represent Seatrain. A couple of the songs on \"Planned Obsolesence\" are worthy of your time listening, but most are just forgettable. The lead-off track \"If You Gotta Make a Fool of Somebody\" is a radical remake of an early '60's minor top 40 hit that gets your attention. But after that, only a reworking of the old minstrel song \"Turtle Dove\" is really interesting. The album ended originally with a 12 1/2 minute attempt to recreate the magic of the Blues Project's masterpiece \"Flute Thing,\" but that attempt (called \"Dakota Recollection\") is an aimless, melodyless instrumental jam session built around Andy's invention, the electrified flute. The CD includes one bonus track \"Gentle Dreams,\" which was a long forgotten non-album single made in the last days of the original Blues Project after Al Kooper left. Fortunately, you can get this bonus track on the superb Blues Project \"Anthology.\" Those who own \"Anthology\" will notice that no tracks from \"Planned Obsolesence\" are included in that 2 CD set. That omission in itself should tell anyone that \"Planned Obsolesence\" isn't really worth your money. If you want to hear Seatrain, you will find much better material available on the various albums recorded under their real name.\"\nWe've all walked now, and are free\nD. R Hayes | Clermont, FL. United States | 08/13/2004\n\"I would like to explore this some more someday, but it sounds actually not bad at all. \"If You Got To Make A Fool Of Somebody\" is the most commercial sounding song ever cranked out by these guys. \"Frank and Curt\" is a wonderful rocker filled with some angst it sounds like. \"Turtledove\" has a soundscapes feel to it, and \"Calypso\" is feeling like caribbean music. Most of the group left by this time, and looking to start thier new adventures. This was what was left over, and is alot better sounding than the last Monkees album.\"",

        "raw_content": "The U.S. Congress today approved, and the president signed into law, a total budget of $1.17 billion for the U.S. Department of Energy\u2019s (DOE) energy efficiency programs for FY18, a 12 percent increase over the $1.04 billion lawmakers approved in FY17 and a sum more than four times the $231.5 million that the Trump Administration proposed for these programs. In addition, the federal budget maintains the funding for the U.S. EPA\u2019s ENERGY STAR programs in FY18 at the same level as in FY17, again ignoring deep cuts requested by the Administration.\n\u201cWe are very pleased to see the Congress recognize the value of DOE\u2019s and EPA\u2019s energy efficiency programs,\u201d said Howard Geller, Executive Director of the Southwest Energy Efficiency Project (SWEEP). \u201cThe DOE implements R&D programs, provides grants to help retrofit homes occupied by low-income families, offers technical assistance to companies, and implements energy efficiency codes and standards\u2014all of which help consumers and businesses save tens of billions of dollars on their energy bills. Likewise, the EPA ENERGY STAR programs are crucial for enabling consumers and businesses to identify and purchase highly energy-efficient products and buildings.\u201d\nThroughout the past year, SWEEP and other stakeholders contacted their U.S. Senators and Representatives to educate them about the benefits of the federal energy efficiency programs, especially the jobs and other economic benefits. Hundreds of businesses in Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah weighed in to support the programs. \u201cThe increase in funding for DOE\u2019s energy efficiency programs will be put to good use in developing the next generation of energy-efficient buildings, heating and cooling systems, lighting and vehicles,\u201d said Patricia Rothwell, President of the board of directors for the Energy Efficiency Business Coalition of Colorado. \u201cOur business members and businesses across the country benefit from the DOE programs, as well as from EPA\u2019s ENERGY STAR programs.\u201d\nSWEEP thanks the Senators and Representatives from the Southwest\u2019s states who supported strong funding for federal energy efficiency programs.\nHighlights of DOE and EPA Energy Efficiency Programs\nIn addition to helping consumers and businesses save energy and reduce costs, all these programs contribute to well-paying jobs in the Southwest. For example, according to a recent DOE report, the six Southwest states have a combined total of 123,000 jobs related to energy efficiency, more than the number of jobs in any other energy sector, including oil and gas, coal, or renewable technologies. The federal programs have contributed to many of these energy efficiency jobs.\nAdvanced Manufacturing. The Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO) includes research and development (R&D) programs to develop new energy-efficient manufacturing technologies, industrial assessment centers, and combined heat and power technical assistance. Industrial Assessment Centers (IACs) are operated by 28 universities throughout the U.S. The IACs provide free energy assessments to small and medium-size manufacturers, and provide training to engineering students. AMO programs help industrial facilities reduce energy costs and maintain their competitiveness.\nBuilding Technologies. The Building Technologies Office (BTO) includes R&D programs to develop new energy efficient building technologies, the building energy codes program, and support for appliances and equipment efficiency standards. BTO\u2019s research and its support for building energy codes and appliance and equipment standards helps businesses and individuals save billions of dollars per year in reduced energy costs.\nVehicle Technologies. The Vehicle Technologies Office (VTO) includes R&D programs to develop energy efficient and alternative fuel (such as electric) vehicle technologies. VTO also supports the Clean Cities program, which helps consumers reduce their gasoline and diesel consumption by millions of gallons per year.\nWeatherization Assistance. The weatherization assistance program helps low-income families implement home insulation and other improvements to reduce energy costs and improve comfort and health. Nationally, this program achieved average energy cost savings of $280 per single family home receiving assistance.\nENERGY STAR programs. The EPA\u2019s ENERGY STAR programs help businesses and homeowners reduce energy costs through labeling of energy-efficient appliances, equipment, and buildings. ENERGY STAR-labeled products and buildings are more energy efficient than the minimum efficiency required by the relevant appliance or equipment standards or building code.\nAbout SWEEP: The Southwest Energy Efficiency Project (SWEEP) is a public interest organization promoting greater energy efficiency in Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. http://www.swenergy.org",

        "raw_content": "Life In The Slums 1869 Part I\nNew York \u2014 more, perhaps, than in any other city in the world \u2014 poverty and wealth, luxury and want, stand in near proximity. It is a palace on one side and a hovel on the other ; and yet there are thousands of people in the great metropolis who know literally nothing by actual contact of the amount of squalor, misery and destitution they might encounter by turning only a little out of their habitual way.\nMuch has been written of the lodging-houses of New York, and their squalid filth has been depicted with fidelity and earnestness. There are places in the Fourth and Sixth wards where for the paltry sum of five cents a night's lodging may be obtained \u2014 the lodging consisting of a place on the floor, a dirty, filthy pallet, covered by a few old rags, to rest upon, shared in common with fifty others, in an atmosphere vitiated in winter by the heat of a red-hot stove and the breaths of the half hundred sleepers. In most cases the lodging-house is beneath the level of, the street, and to the other discomforts is added those of dampness and the additional foulness of the air. Is it any wonder that oftentimes some of the unfortunate lodgers are found dead on their wretched pallets in the morning ? These are bad enough off, but there are many who fare even worse : we refer to those who do not possess a cent, and are compelled to seek for shelter in the station-house. The lodging-rooms are generally in an apartment adjoining the prison, and differing from the latter only in the lack of comfort. In the centre of each of the two rooms is a large stove heated red hot. Around each room is a platform sloping toward the centre of the apartment ; and this is the only accommodation in shape of a bed provided for those seeking a lodging. These rooms are about twelve or fourteen feet square, and are assigned respectively to the males and females, the sexes being very properly separated for the time being.\nThe rooms are generally crowded with fifteen or twenty persons in them, and yet on very inclement nights not less than thirty or thirty-five persons are often put in each in many of the down-town precincts. It is a fearful thing to turn away a poor, shivering wretch who implores that he may be allowed to pass a night in the station-house ; and yet it is often done for the simple reason that the lodging-room is so overcrowded that there is no possible chance to crowd in any more. Those denied admittance are told to go to some other station-house to seek for shelter, the location of the one nearest being given them. Most likely, on applying there, the suppliant receives the same rebuff as at the other station-house.\nThe majority of female lodgers are, of course, of the lowest class, but occasionally a woman of evident respectability, although of course very poor, applies for a night's lodging. Fancy what must be her feelings at being compelled either to pass the night in such a filthy hole, or walk the streets and be subjected to the brutal insults of the ruffians who infest the thoroughfares.\nEnter the sleeping-room devoted to the men. Here are about the same number, made up almost altogether of the lowest grade of life, or what is known as \" bummers.\" But there are a few among the number of evident respectability, and these must feel it a torture to be compelled to pass a night in such a place, for, if anything, the men's room is worse than that of the women. The stench of woolen clothing long worn, dampened by rain and drying in the fearfully hot atmosphere, is horrible \u2014 apparently sufficient to breed a pestilence.\nMany of the station-houses are not even so well provided with accommodations as the Fourth, the lodgers being placed either in the spare cells or occasionally in the space devoted to the storage of coal. Should there be a larger number of prisoners than usual, these lodgers must make room for them, and accordingly the unfortunate shelter-seekers are turned into the street. During the past winter a German shot himself in one of the German boarding-houses in the lower part of the city, and by direction of the coroner the body was removed to the Liberty street police station pending the inquest. There was no place in which to put the body but the lodgers' room, and consequently about twenty female lodgers were turned into the streets on a bitter cold night.\nIn the preparation of this work the author made a tour of inspection through the \" slums\" of the great city, visiting some of the streets inhabited by the poorer classes of the population, and made a close scrutiny into their means of livelihood and modes of living. We obtained the escort of an officer of the police force ; not that there was any danger connected with the tour of inspection proposed by us, but simply that the company of an official, like our friend, would be to us an \"open sesame\" when otherwise our right of admission would be questioned.\nThe first house we entered was a tenement in Mulberry street. This was about eleven o'clock in the forenoon, it not having occurred to us then that the best time for our visit would be after dark, when the male portion of the tenants \u2014 such as had employments \u2014 would be at leisure and at home. With what class to rank this house was a puzzle. It was very inferior to others in the same street, and yet not nearly so bad as several others that we entered the evening of the same day. It was of brick, four stories in height, with a flight of steps, six or eight in number, leading to the doorway. The hall and stairways were entirely bare, and much worn by the tread of many feet. As we ascended, the unsteady balustrades shook at every step, and a slatternly-looking woman entering by the back way caused us to pause for the purpose of interrogating her in reference to the occupants of the premises. \"\nAn' it's meself that ought to know,\" she replied, in answer to our question of how many families were in the house, \" for I've lived here now goin' on a twelvemonth. There's__let me see,\" said she, calling them by name and counting them off on her fingers \u2014 \"there's \u2014 twenty \u2014twen \u2014 twenty \u2014 four \u2014 five; twenty-five, and not a sowlless.\"\nFrom the conversation of this female, who was of a communicative turn, and who, judging from her features as well as her brogue, was undoubtedly of Celtic origin, we learned that her husband contributed to the support of herself and children (two boys and a girl), ranging in years from five to eleven, all equally as frowzy as herself, and having the same soiled, begrimed appearance, by shoveling coal. In reply to our inquiry, whether she did nothing herself to aid her husband in his honest endeavors, she replied that she sometimes took in washing ; but how she ever managed to get the clothes clean, and how she kept them so after they were once washed, in that dirty room on the hall floor, and herself so typical of dirt, to say nothing of the three children and her husband a coal-heaver, was, to say the least, somewhat mysterious. \"\nIt isn't much that I gets to do,\" she went on, somewhat apologetically ; \" but what little I do, helps. But most of the people I works for are too poor to pay, and so either wash their own clothes or go dirty.\"\nThe front room on the same floor, she informed us, was occupied by a tailor, who was on a spree and away from home. We ascended the stairs, followed by the lady herself and her three children, she having offered to be our guide through the house and to introduce us to some of the tenants on the floors above. There was little or nothing to interest us in these \u2014 the same bare floors, the same blank walls, the same pine tables, broken chairs and ragged bedding; the same neglected-looking occupants; nothing save the usual accompaniments of that particular grade of poverty.\nArticle Name: Life In The Slums 1869 Part I\nSource: BIBLIOGRAPHY: The Women of New York; Or, The Under-world of the Great City. by George Ellington; The New York Book Company. 1869",

In the vicinity of the monument is a small plateau, on the side of the precipice leading to the river, known as \"Kosciusko's Garden,\" to which the Polish chieftain was accustomed to retire for study and reflection.\nThe monument in memory of Major Dade and his command is situated on the high and precipitous banks of the Hudson, a little below the edge of the parade ground, south from the Kosciusko monument. The following is the inscription:\nMaj. Dade, Fourth Infantry; Capt. Gardiner, Second Artillery; Capt. Frazer, Second Artillery; Lieut. Bassinger, Second Artillery; Lieut. Mudge, Third Artillery; Lieut. Keais, Third Artillery; Lieut. Henderson, Second Artillery; Doctor Catlin, Medical Staff. Dade and his command. To commemorate the battle of the 28th Dec., 1835, between a detachment of 108 U. S. troops and the Seminole Indians of Florida, in which all the detachment save three fell without an attempt to retreat. The remains of the dead repose near St. Augustine, Florida. Erected by the three Regiments and Medical Staff, whose comrades fell on the twenty-eighth of December, 1835, serving their country and honoring their profession.\nThe following inscription is on a monument erected near the flag staff and parade ground:\nTo the memory of Lieut. Colonel E. D. WOOD, of the Corps of Engineers, who fell while leading a charge at the sortie of Ft. Erie, Upper Canada, 17th September, 1814, in the 31st year of his age. He was exemplary as a Christian, and distinguished as a soldier. A pupil of this institution, he died an honor to his country. This memorial was erected by his friend and commander, Major-General Jacob Brown.\nThe following inscriptions are copied from monuments in the West Point graveyard:\nTo the memory of Ensign Dominick Trant, of the 9th Massachusetts Regiment, who departed this life the 7th day of Nov., 1782, in the 18th year of his age. This youth was a native of Cork, in Ireland, which place he quitted for a thirst of military glory, and an ardent desire to embrace the American cause. He died equally lamented as he was beloved whilst living by all who knew him.\nThe grave of Thomas Gimbrede, born in Agen, in France, in 1781; died at West Point, Dec. 24, 1832. For 14 years he was principal Teacher of Drawing in the U. S. Military Academy, discharging the duties of his station with advantage to the institution and with honor to himself. His pupils, the U. S. Corps of Cadets, have erected this monument to his memory, 1833.\nSacred to the memory of Lieut. Allen H. Norton, 4th U. S. Inf'y. Assistant Instructor Inf'y Tactics at the Military Academy, of which he was a graduate. He was lost in the wreck of the Atlantic in Long Island, Nov. 27, A. D., 1846, after repeated instances of self-devotion and generous efforts to save the lives of his companions in peril, aged 25 years. As an officer, his character secured the confidence of his commanders. As a man, the qualities of his heart won the ardent friendship of his comrades; and in token of regret for his untimely death this stone is raised over his remains by the officers, professors and cadets of the Military Academy.\nSacred to the remains of Lt. Col. Alex. R. Thompson, U. States 6th Infantry, born Feb. 19, 1793, fell Dec. 25, 1837, at the head of his regiment, in a successful charge, at the battle of Okee-cho-bee, Florida. With morals founded on Christian piety, his life was exemplary as his death was glorious. This monument is the joint tribute of his affectionate widow and admiring regiment. The son of a gallant officer of the revolutionary army whose remains lie interred near this spot, his devotion to country was the dictate of principle and example.\nTarrytown, West Chester county, a small village of about 1,000 inhabitants, is 28 miles north from New York, on the east side of the Hudson, on Tappan Bay. It is celebrated as the place of the capture of Maj. Andre, in 1780. Andre was executed at Tappan, on the opposite side of the Hudson, Oct. 2. His remains were disinterred, under the direction of Mr. Buchanan, the British consul at New York, in Aug., 1831, and conveyed to London. The following is from Holmes' Annals:\nThe most flagrant instance of treachery during the revolutionary war occurred this year. The American army was stationed in the strongholds of the highlands, on both sides of the North River. For the defense of this river, a fortress had been built at West Point, after the loss of Fort Montgomery, and it was so strong and impregnable as to be called the Gibraltar of America. Of this post General Arnold solicited the command, and General Washington, far from suspecting any sinister views in an officer who had been uniformly zealous and active in the cause of his country, complied with the solicitation. When Arnold had become invested with the command, he carried on a negotiation with Sir Henry Clinton, by which it was agreed that Arnold should make such a disposition of his forces as would enable the British general effectually to surprise West Point. The agent employed in this negotiation was Major Andre, Adjutant-General of the British army. To favor the communications, the Vulture, a British sloop-of-war, had been previously stationed in North River, as near Arnold's posts as could be without exciting suspicion. On the night of the 21st of September, a boat was sent from the shore to fetch Major Andre, and Arnold met him at the beach, without the posts of both armies. Their business not being finished until it was too near morning for Andre to return to the Vulture, Arnold, telling him he must be concealed until the next night, conducted him within one of the American posts, where he continued with him the following day. The Vulture having in the mean time changed her position, the boatmen refused to carry back Andre the next night, and he could now return to New York in no other way than by land. Quitting for a common coat his uniform, which he had worn under a surtout, he set out on horseback, under the name of John Anderson, with a passport \"to go to the lines of White Plains, or lower, if he thought proper, he being on public business.\" When advanced a great part of the way, he was stopped by three of the New York militia, belonging to a scouting party, and several papers, containing exact returns of the state of the forces, ordnance and defenses at West Point, were found in his boots. The captors, disdaining a proffered bribe of a purse of gold and permanent provision and promotion, on condition of their conveying and accompanying him to New York, delivered him a prisoner to Lieutenant-Colonel Jameson, who commanded the scouting parties. Andre, with the incautious permission of Jameson, informed Arnold of his detention, in a letter, on the receipt of which Arnold abandoned everything, and went on board the Vulture sloop-of-war. General Washington referred the case of Andre to the examination and decision of a board, consisting of fourteen officers, who, without examining a single witness, founded their report on his own confession. After stating the facts, they reported it as their opinion \"that Major Andre ought to be considered as a spy, and that, agreeably to the laws and usages of nations, he should suffer death.\" He was accordingly hung as a spy on the 2d of October.\nAndre's Place Of Execution.\nSunnyside, the residence of the late Washington Irving, is two miles below Tarrytown. It stands on the Hudson, in the midst of the scenes made classic by the graces of his pen.\nMr. Irving was the son of a Scotchman, and was born in New York city just at the close of the American revolution. He was educated for the bar,but never practiced. At the age of twenty-one be visited Europe for his health, and much of his early life was passed abroad. His principal works are \"Knickerbocker's History of New York,\" \"Bracebridge Hall,\" \"Tales of a Traveler,\" \"Life and Voyages of Columbus,\" \"Conquest of Granada,\" \"The Sketch Book,\" \"Life of Washington,\" etc. To him belonged the singular honor of being the first American literary writer who achieved a reputation as such in Europe. The taunt of a British review, \"who reads an American book?\" was dispelled of its sting by the sudden and unexpected popularity which Irving's writings soon after everywhere met with from the literary world.\nWashington Irving closed his long and useful life in November, 1859. We terminate this notice by an extract from the beautiful eulogy of Wm. C. Bryant upon his character and writings:\nThat amiable character which makes itself so manifest in the writings of Irving was seen in all his daily actions. He was ever ready to do kind offices--tender of the feelings of others, carefully just, but ever leaning to the merciful side of justice, averse from strife, and so modest that the world never ceased to wonder how it should have happened that one so much praised should have gained so little assurance. He envied no man's success--he sought to detract from no man's merits, but he was acutely sensitive both to praise and to blame--sensitive to such a degree that an unfavorable criticism of any of his works would almost persuade him that they were as worthless as the critic represented them. He thought so little of himself that he could never comprehend why it was that he should be the object of curiosity or reverence.\nHis facility in writing and the charm of his style were owing to very early practice, the reading of good authors and the native elegance of his mind, and not, in my opinion, owing to any special study of the graces of manner, or any anxious care in the use of terms and phrases. Words and combinations of words are sometimes found in his writings to which a fastidious taste might object, but these do not prevent his style from being one of the most agreeable in the whole range of our literature. It is transparent as the light, sweetly modulated, unaffected, the native expression of a fertile fancy, a benignant temper, and a mind which, delighting in the noble and the beautiful, turned involuntarily away from their opposites. His peculiar humor was, in a great measure, the offspring of this constitution of his mind. This \"fanciful playing with common things,\" as Mr. Dana calls it, is never coarse--never tainted with grossness, and always in harmony with our better sympathies. It not only tinged his writings, but overflowed in his delightful conversation.\nIn his pages we see that the language of the heart never becomes obsolete; that Truth, and Good and Beauty, the offspring of God, are not subject to the changes which beset the inventions of men. We become satisfied that he whose works were the delight of our fathers, and are still ours, will be read with the same pleasure by those who come after us.\nIf it were becoming at this time and in this assembly to address our departed friend as if in his immediate presence, I would say: Farewell, thou who hast entered into the rest prepared, from the foundation of the world, for serene and gentle spirits like thine. Farewell, happy in thy life, happy in thy death, happier in the reward to which that death was the assured passage; fortunate in attracting the admiration of the world to thy beautiful writings; still more fortunate in having written nothing which did not tend to promote the reign of magnanimous forbearance and generous sympathies among thy fellow men. The brightness of that enduring fame which thou hast won on earth is but a shadowy symbol of that glory to which thou hast been admitted in the world beyond the grave. Thy errand upon earth was an errand of peace and good will to men, and thou art now in a region where hatred and strife never enter, and where the harmonious activity of those who inhabit it acknowledges no impulse less noble or less pure than that of love.\nArticle Name: Learning About New York State Part IX",

        "raw_content": "Series: Bumped #1\nHarperCollins: Balzer + Bray\nWhen a virus makes everyone over the age of eighteen infertile, would-be parents are forced to pay teen girls to conceive and give birth to their children, making teens the most prized members of society.\nSixteen-year-old identical twins Melody and Harmony were separated at birth and had never met until the day Harmony shows up on Melody\u2019s doorstep. Until now, the twins have followed completely opposite paths. Melody has scored an enviable conception contract with a couple called the Jaydens. While they are searching for the perfect partner for Melody to bump with, she is fighting her attraction to her best friend Zen, who is way too short for the job.\nHarmony has spent her whole life in religious Goodside, preparing to be a wife and mother. She believes her calling is to bring Melody back to Goodside and convince her that \u201cpregging\u201d for profit is a sin. But Harmony has secrets of her own that she is running from.\nI've never read Megan McCafferty's other series, so I have no preconceptions about her writing. All I know is that I loved this book! I'd been waiting for this book for the longest time but still had no idea just how much I'd love it.\nI've read some negative reviews of Bumped and want to address the main points that these reviews seem to have in common.\n1. Yes, some of the slang was difficult to get used to, but you'll know what it all means by the time you've finished the first section. If you can wade through that, you'll get it later on. The \"futurespeak\" is there for a reason, not just to annoy you.\n2. The messages from both Melody's and Harmony's sides feel a little heavy-handed at times, but that was the point of the book - society is brow-beaten with these messages 24/7 and never given a chance to find a happy medium somewhere in the middle.\nOther things I loved:\n1. Reading about the twins' separate but parallel journeys of self-discovery. Each twin had something to learn, and they probably wouldn't have been able to learn it without the other. It's hard for each of them to admit, but they need each other.\n2. That the story was told in alternating chapters. Normally that's not something I can read easily, but each chapter title was the name of a character, making it quite easy to follow.\n3. Shock value. Normally I don't go for this, but in this dystopian world it was necessary to shock Melody into realizing that the way she's been raised to see the world isn't the way she actually feels about it.\nIt's going to be a long and agonizing wait for book two!",

        "raw_content": "\u201cI used to work on the Dublin Port, 24 hours on and 48 hours off shifts. She used to love that. She loved that we could spend a full day together and on those days we always went on a date somewhere. When she was going shopping, she always brought me with her. She had a driving license and, although she was a good driver, she always told me that she felt safer when I was beside her. I was always happy to keep her company. Our story was a real love story\u2026 She got cancer in her early 50s and passed away a little over a year later. We were together for 27 years. After she died, I looked after our children and was a widower for four years. Christmas times were the hardest. When she knew she was dying, she always told me: \u2018when I die, you get yourself another lady!\u2019 That was just her personality, you know? One day, just before Christmas, I thought I would give it a try. I knew a lady but only from seeing her around. I heard she became a widow around the same time as me, so I looked her up in the telephone book and I asked her out. She said no, but a couple of hours later she called me and said: \u2018OK\u2019. Later, she told me that it was her son who changed her mind. We went on a date; my first date in 31 years. I felt like a child I was so excited. I didn\u2019t know what to do or what to say. I believe she felt the same way, but eventually, we started to talk and ended up having a great time. We have now been married for 22 years. We both know we haven\u2019t got the same love like before and we respect each other\u2019s memories. She is very good to me and I am very good to her too. Sometimes, it feels like I have lived two different lives\u2026 and I feel lucky that I could share my life with two wonderful ladies\u2026\u201d",

Riker can use the Enterprise\u2019s computer to analyze objects and ships, or to look up Federation data files on the various people involved in the growing conflict. And of course, he can call upon the knowledge and experience of his crewmates for advice, or bring them along as he beams down to the various locales on each planet or asteroid in the game. One thing not at Riker\u2019s disposal is time: the attacks continue, and whoever is mounting the attacks is getting bolder with each attempt. And someone in the Aquila system knows more than they\u2019re telling. (Simon & Schuster Interactive, 1989)\nMemories: Though it sailed through some troubled creative waters behind the scenes of its first two seasons on television, Star Trek: The Next Generation was on the receiving end of a remarkable amount of patience from its viewers, simply on the strength of its name. With an unprecedented amount of money riding on a series that was sold directly into syndication rather than to a network, Paramount Pictures was eager to cash in as soon as possible. Even so, the first computer or video game to be set aboard the new Enterprise took some time to complete.

The human race is extinct and the Daleks have taken over. Completely unarmed (except for the Doctor\u2019s trusty sonic screwdriver), the Doctor and Amy have to avoid the unstoppable Dalek patrols, make their way back to the TARDIS, and do whatever it takes \u2013 no matter the risk \u2013 to defeat the Daleks and set history back on its proper course. This means setting the TARDIS on a course for the heart of Dalek power: Kaalann, the capitol city of the Dalek planet Skaro. (BBC, 2010)\nMemories: Offered for free in the UK and Wales (and for a fee everywhere else), Doctor Who: The Adventure Games not only sets out to bring an interactive component to the spectacularly revived long-running British science fiction series, but it also aims to make the games an official part of the show\u2019s ongoing story, and tries to stick to the underlying premise of the series \u2013 namely, that the Doctor employs wits and words in lieu of weapons.

        "raw_content": "\u201cThose who love the Holy Spirit experience every kind of happiness within themselves. The Holy Spirit leads us like a mother leads her little child, or like a person with sight leads a blind man. Those who love the Holy Spirit find prayer so delightful that they cannot find sufficient time to pray.\u201d\n\u201cThe Holy Spirit impresses on us the divine image and gives us superhuman loveliness. We are temples of the Holy Spirit, who truly lives in us. On this account we are called gods. Because of our union with the Holy Spirit, we share the divine, incomprehensible nature of God.\u201d (St. Cyril)\nWe are bound to love and adore the Holy Spirit in our souls as really and truly as we are bound to adore Jesus Christ on the Altar. Nay, more; as an eminent Dominican theologian remarks, we have in a way a greater obligation to adore the Holy Spirit in our souls than to adore Jesus Christ on the altar, because if we fail to honor Jesus Christ on the altar, many others who enter the church will adore Him, so that He will not be abandoned and left alone. But if we fail to adore, honor and love the Holy Spirit in our souls, He is completely abandoned and left alone. No one can take our place. This is our personal obligation.\nWhat an immense joy and consolation it is, we repeat, for us to know that the Holy Spirit is really, truly and personally in our souls. We are His living tabernacles. He is always with us. It seems incredible that few Christians realize this wonderful truth. They never think of the Holy Spirit during the long hours of the day; much less do they honor Him during the night, during their seven or eight hours of sleep.\nBut how can they honor the Holy Ghost when they are asleep? By realizing that He is with them when asleep and by offering their sleep in His honor...What a joy it would be to them if at night when they awaken, and sometimes when they remain awake for hours at a time, they spoke lovingly to Him and enjoyed His presence. And again how consoling for the sick, when suffering and alone, if they felt that the Holy Spirit Himself was really and truly with them. They never perhaps heard of this beautiful doctrine.\nWhat can we do? Never forget your Best friend. It is important to talk with your Best Friend, spend time with Him, ask Him for the greatest gift He can give you. The gift of Holy Love for with the Gift of Love we can obtain all else besides.~Excerpt from the Holy Ghost Our Greatest Friend by Fr. Paul Sullivan OP\nThe Holy Spirit is the master of prayer, and causes us to abide in continual peace and cheerfulness, which is a foretaste of Paradise\u2026.If we wish the Holy Spirit to teach us how to pray, we must practise humility and obedience\u2026The fruit we ought to get from prayer, is to do what is pleasing to the Lord.~St. Phillip Neri\nSo to become a Best Friend of the Holy Spirit one must pray a simple set of prayers in the morning:\nCome Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth. O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations, Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.\nand Seven Glory Be's\nAlso whenever the Spirit moves you pray this prayer:\nHoly Spirit, Fire of Love, My Best Friend fill me with your Love Forever!\nFinally: Talk to your Best Friend whenever you can and truly become a Best Friend of the Holy Spirit!",

They put out 2 albums in 04 and 08 (I think) then broke up. They never made it big, but they are a fun listen. This is their \"hit\", Walkie Talkie Man https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=I7UvbwCjXUk\nI love this as I'm always looking for new music.\nI've been listening to a lot of The National lately. \"Bloodbuzz Ohio\" is a fantastic song. And everything they do is right in my vocal range - not always easy when you're a bass.\nWell, this isn't new, but I like the song and love the video:\nAndy McKee, he's got some serious guitar chops but isn't a wanky noodler like a lot of virtuoso guitarists.\n21 Pilots. If you get the chance to see them live you absolutely must.\nI discovered Foxy Shazam by seeing someone post \"if you like Queen, you'll like this\". This one gets stuck in my head pretty often now:\nOriginally Posted by Wifey\nSocial Distortion, Story of my Life. Love this song, then it was the theme to a great tv show, Surviving Jack, that was cancelled by Fox. Thanks Fox.\nhttps://youtu.be/oh8zcbC_Dcw\nEdit: I'm an idiot and can't figure out how to embed videos. Ken Help!!!\nHit the \"Insert Video\" button on the toolbar and paste the full youtube link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oh8zcbC_Dcw). I'm not sure if the short link you used above will work or not. Could always give it a try.\nDiablo Swing Orchestra is a pretty brilliant band. They play a vibrant blend of heavy metal, swing, samba, opera, and have even managed to fit disco, funk and pop into their blend of styles.\nI'm super into this song these days from Ivory Hours.\nThey also have a sweet stop motion video.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwmfpfEwAVk\nRandy - That is a great song! I haven't heard any Social Distortion for years...\nI've been hooked on a lot of Matthew Good over the last few weeks, as well as Barenaked Ladies. (Hoping their new album is a lot of fun, much like Grinning Streak was.) Tragically Hip, Fort Minor (for when I'm shooting hoops) and Ace of Base.\nI'm not going to lie... I've not heard of most of the bands in this topic so far.\nI love Vienna Teng. Here's a fav I was just listening to:\nI think a lot of times we are secretly trying to impress people when we post what we are listening to. Or at the very least, turn people on to a new band. Not this time. My favorite song by my favorite band. I'm the only one in the office today, so I'm rocking out. Staring At The Sun by The Offspring.(On mobile. Having a tough time embedding a vid.)\nLast edited by Ken; 04-16-2015 at 10:11 AM. Reason: embedded it for ya.\nNow that's a great band. I shall jam to them today out of respect.\nBeen listening to a lot of Rabbit Junk lately. Super eclectic band that dabbles in rock, rap, electro, and industrial music.\nFrank Turner... everytime I listen to Frank Turner I wonder why he isn't my all time favorite musician. ...I don't have an answer.\nNever listened to Frank Turner. Any song better than others as an intro to him?\nI'm not exactly listening to this right now, but my daughters requested to see this video again last night. OK Go - This Too Shall Pass. I love Rube Goldberg machines.\nLoving this album quite a bit - I loved the first but this song really sealed the second offering for me.\nI just requested this song for the radio station I work for.\nI usually hate this style of super radio friendly radio rock as it usually just sounds dull and passionless to me, but something about this band is catchy. I don't know if that means they're actually good at making radio rock drivel, or if that means they're extra bad at it.\nNot exactly the most original band or album, but this is a really good nod to old school death metal. It's both brutal and tuneful. Probably not the sort of thing most TRPers could get into but I figured I'd share anyway.\nNecro bumping this thread because music is good. It's currently chill o'clock.",

        "raw_content": "The Media Access Control address, or shortly called the MAC address helps identifying the IP address of the particular computer, in all the different operating systems like Windows, Mac and Linux. While finding the MAC address is quite easy for the Windows and Linux operating systems, it would require a couple steps extra steps. Pinging is the process to be done on the Windows OS to find the MAC address of the computer. Check the tutorial How to Ping an IP address if you were actually looking for that, but if the MAC address if what you wanted to find, follow the details below.\nFind MAC Address on Windows OS\nTo find the Media Access Control address (MAC address), you need to follow the similar steps that you had followed for pinging an IP address, where you need to go to the start menu, and search for Run, and in the box, type CMD and press enter to open the command function.\nIn the command prompt, type ipconfig /all and you would see all the information about the computer, including the IP address, Subnet mask, DNS servers and the Physical address. The 12-digit physical address with the format xx-yy-zz-aa-bb-cc is the MAC address you are trying to search.\nFind MAC Address on Linux OS\nIn the linux computer, you need to open the \u201csu\u201d command which would function similar to the CMD option in Windows.\nAfter the # prompt, type the following ifconfig -a and hit enter. This would show a list of the various data and information about the computer.\nHWaddr in the first line itself is the MAC address of your linux computer.\nFind MAC Address on Mac OS X\nOpen the System Preferences from the Apple Menu, or else search for System Preferences from the Spotlight search.\nClick on the \u201cNetwork\u201d in System Preferences, and in the window select the active network connection you are on, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, etc. and then after selecting, hit \u201cAdvanced\u201d on the lower right corner.\nIn the advanced options section, the bottom will have the Wi-Fi address which is the Mac address in the format aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff having specific alphabetic or numeric characters.\nHow Unique is a MAC Address?\nThe Media Access Control address is a unique identifier for the network adapter, which is assigned to every network interface card or the network adapter for making it easier to identify. These MAC addresses are placed on the device by the manufacturer and usually encodes the manufacturers identification number. It is also known as a hardware address, physical address, or adapter address.\nThe 12-digit code differently made for every adapter makes it very much unique, and a perfect way to identify the network.\nTags: Find MAC Address, Find Mac address on Linux, Find Mac address on Mac OS X, Find Mac address on Windows 7, Find Mac address on Windows 8, how-to, linux, Media Access Control address",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Bob on November 13, 2009 at 11:22pm in Small Talk\nHey everyone! Tonight, my cousin, who is a devout Christian (my Dad's side of the family is largely Catholic/Episcopalian, but this cousin is far more fervent. She gets it from her mother) posted this on Facebook:\n\"I am a Christian and proud to say it! Let's see how many people on FB aren't afraid to show their love for Jesus! Repost this as your status. Each time you see this on someone's status, say a quick prayer for that person. Let's get God back in this country like He should be!! If you agree post this in your status update. Just copy and paste\"\nNaturally, as an atheist, this stuck in my craw. At first I thought to just let it pass, like normal. Then, I decided that instead of letting it pass, I'd stir the fire a little bit. I say I'm an atheist, I might as well start acting like one. So, I tweaked the message a little bit, and reposted it:\n\"I am an Atheist & proud to say it! Let's see how many people on Facebook aren't afraid to show their love for Reason! Repost this as your status if you want. Each time you see this on someone's status, start a debate, one-sided discussions don't do anything! Let's keep church & state separate in this country, like... it says in our Constitution!! If you agree, post this in your status update or don't, you choose!\"\nSo, what do you think? Should I have just kept it to myself? I've received no responses yet, but I'll keep you all posted.\nPermalink Reply by Reggie on November 14, 2009 at 8:55am\nBut what if he is smarter???? :o\nPermalink Reply by Christian Thompson on November 14, 2009 at 11:05pm\nI get tired of seeing religious stuff on facebook too. It's annoying to say the least.\nPermalink Reply by Reggie on November 15, 2009 at 12:19am\nGod didn't bless you with the patience you needed to suffer fools.\nNo, he damned me with an intolerance for them.\nPermalink Reply by Reggie on November 16, 2009 at 7:14pm\nPermalink Reply by Kristen Powell on December 13, 2009 at 4:49am\nSorry so late; just joined last night and am going through old discussions. I love this statement--consider it snaggled. Thanks!\nAnd yes, I love that Bob posted a new version of out and proud.\nPermalink Reply by Christine Vyrnon on November 15, 2009 at 10:01pm\nNot a bad idea. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. I probably wouldn't post it because generally speaking I don't friend people who would post the Christian one.\nAs for the Establishment Clause versus Constitution - with faith-based initiatives getting the nod from Obama I'm tempted to post what I've been researching on that subject - which really sticks in my craw.\nPermalink Reply by Bob on November 15, 2009 at 10:49pm\nPlease do! We'd love to read it over here!\nPermalink Reply by Bob on November 16, 2009 at 9:07pm\nNo one has responded to this thus far. Looks like the people I know aren't into being confrontational.\nTurned the other cheek?\nPermalink Reply by Chris H on December 13, 2009 at 6:55am\nLike it... Must say we have recently had a change in state schooling where religion is for the first time not allowed in school. Needless to say Christians are up in arms and every second post on face book and every second group created by South Africans is to \"Keep God in Schools\" or \"Join this cause\" I had considered something similar. However I think the for the average South African atheist, the reality of \"public and social prosecution\" for being Atheist is a very real threat. None of my family is aware of my beliefs and trust me it's better that way.\nI was tempted to do something similar however after rethinking and weighing up all the odds decided against it. However someone is bound to annoy me eventually and who knows. I did posted a link to this site on my profile though as well as Tim Minchins \"Storm\", after that the \"harassment\" became a lot less I must say!",

        "raw_content": "New airports and ports\nLarry Luxner January 23, 2014 April 8, 2014\nThe Carnival-owned Mahogany Bay, on Roat\u00e1n in Honduras' Bay Islands, opened in 2011. ((Courtesy of Carnival Cruises))\nWhile Costa Rica remains Central America\u2019s top tourist destination, the region\u2019s six other countries are vying to lure tourists and increase revenues by aggressively investing in airports, cruise-ship facilities, hotels and other tourism infrastructure.\nA $22 million project in neighboring Nicaragua is now underway to modernize the fishing port of Puerto Salvador Allende, El Nuevo Diario recently reported.\nVirgilio Silva, chief executive of the state-run Empresa Portuaria Nacional, said the harbor \u2013 which is 1,300 meters long, 10 meters wide and 10 meters deep \u2013 will be upgraded to allow cruise ships and other vessels weighing up to 15,000 tons. The port, named after a leftist president of Chile in the 1970s, now receives an average 100,000 tourists per month. Following construction of a marina, retail shopping center and other improvements, that figure is expected to triple to 300,000 visitors.\nAdriana Dinarte, the port\u2019s general manager, said her staff is working with Helic\u00f3pteros de Nicaragua to incorporate a heliport as part of the tourism offer, and also will spend $1.5 million to upgrade Puerto Sandino.\nBut the biggest project by far is a widely publicized plan by Nicaragua to build an Atlantic-to-Pacific canal to compete with the 100-year-old Panama Canal. Last week, President Daniel Ortega and Chinese tycoon Wang Jeng announced that work would begin this December on the 178-mile canal. His HKND Group has a 50-year concession to operate the future waterway, with an option to extend the contract for another 50 years.\nIf built, the $40 billion project would be able to handle the world\u2019s largest ships \u2013 including those that are too large even for the new set of locks now under construction at the Panama Canal, which is itself in the midst of a $5.25 billion expansion.\nMeanwhile, 28 cruise ships are expected to arrive at Nicaragua\u2019s San Juan del Sur and 13 at Puerto Corinto \u2013 both on the Pacific coast \u2013 during the 2013-14 season, an 11 percent jump over the previous year.\nAccording to the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA), Central America cruise passenger arrivals jumped by 29 percent between 2006 and 2010, with the fastest growth seen by Guatemala\u2019s Puerto Quetzal. Volume there shot up by 381 percent, reaching 47,000 passengers in 2010, said the FCCA. Other leading Central American ports include Panama\u2019s Col\u00f3n (218,400 passengers in 2010), Costa Rica\u2019s Puerto Lim\u00f3n (193,000) and Puntarenas (89,000), Panama\u2019s Cristobal (51,200) and Guatemala\u2019s Santo Tom\u00e1s (51,100).\nThe FCCA reported in early 2013 that cruise passengers spent the most money in Belize (an average of $73 each in the 2011-12 cruise season), followed by Costa Rica ($71.50), Honduras ($62.20) and Nicaragua ($45.60). Total passenger expenditures ranged from a high of $44.4 million in Belize to a low of $1.6 million in Nicaragua.\nFinally, the FCCA says the cruise industry generated total revenues of $61 million for Belize, $20.4 million for Honduras, $18.5 million for Costa Rica and $2 million for Nicaragua in 2011-12. The report didn\u2019t include El Salvador, Guatemala or Panama.\nLike Nicaragua, Honduras is desperately poor \u2013 but the country is the undisputed leader when it comes to Central America\u2019s cruise-ship industry.\nBanana Coast\nThe country\u2019s Banana Coast project was dedicated last June during a ceremony that also recognized the founding of the city of Trujillo on May 18, 1525.\nThemed \u201cWhere the Rainforest Meets the Sea,\u201d the $30 million Banana Coast project is the newest cruise destination in the western Caribbean. A passenger reception facility and 50,000-square-foot retail-shopping center on 10 acres of beachfront has already been completed in Trujillo\u2019s colonial zone. Future plans call for construction of a two-berth, post-Panamax pier.\nBanana Coast has signed Holland America Line as the first cruise line to schedule regular calls at the new port. Holland\u2019s 1,260-passenger Ryndam will visit Banana Coast 11 times beginning in late November, followed by a December visit by Silversea Cruises\u2019 269-passenger Silver Cloud, and then P&O Cruises\u2019 710-passenger Adonia, set to call at the port in February 2015.\n\u201cHaving a premium cruise line like Holland America Line recognize the exciting opportunities of regularly calling at Banana Coast is a testament to the work we\u2019ve put into making the port the hottest new destination in the Caribbean,\u201d said Randy Jorgensen, general manager of Trujillo Grande Autoridad, which owns the port.\nRoat\u00e1n, a 37-mile-long Caribbean island just off the northern Honduran coast, is already a major port of call for cruise ships. It receives close to one million tourists a year, making Honduras the top cruise destination in Central America. The two main cruise terminals on Roat\u00e1n are at Coxen Hole, which is run by Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., and Mahogany Bay, operated by Carnival Cruises.\nWhat Honduras really needs, however, is a solution to the nightmare that is Tocont\u00edn International Airport. Located in the capital, Tegucigalpa, Tocont\u00edn has long been considered one of the world\u2019s most dangerous airports for takeoffs and landings.\nMeanwhile, nine international companies have shown interest in a $130 million tender for construction of the new Palmerola International Airport, to be located on a former air base just 70 kilometers from Tegucigalpa. The airport will have a 2,440-meter runway as well as a new control tower, a 14,000-square-meter passenger terminal and a 1,500-square-meter cargo facility.\nCompanies from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and Spain are all participating in the tender.\nBy 2045, Palmerola should be able to handle a maximum 2.1 million passengers a year, according to the specifications. At present, Honduras has four international airports \u2013 Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Sula, La Ceiba and Roat\u00e1n. Together, they handled 1.8 million passengers in 2011, the latest year for which statistics are available.\nThe country\u2019s public-private promotion agency Coalianza also plans to award a tender to build and operate R\u00edo Amarillo airport in Cop\u00e1n. That project \u2013 which foresees construction of a 1,200-meter runway, among other things \u2013 will require $270 million in investment. According to a press release, the new airport will primarily serve cruise ship tourists visiting the Mayan ruins of Cop\u00e1n. This new airport is scheduled to start operations in October 2016.\nTourists prepare to board a cruise ship anchored in Col\u00f3n, some 100 km north of Panama City. Elmer Mart\u00ednez/AFP\nPanama is booming\nWhen it comes to airports, Panama is by far the regional leader.\nTocumen International Airport, just outside Panama City, is in the midst of a mammoth expansion that, when finished, will boost its capacity to 15 million passengers a year \u2013 making it one of the busiest airports in Latin America.\nThe project envisions commercial, operational and hotel infrastructure. At its centerpiece is a completely new, 80,000-square-meter South Terminal boasting 20 gates as well as new facilities for immigration, customs and parking. In September 2012, Brazilian construction conglomerate Odebrecht won the contract to expand Tocumen, submitting a bid of $679.4 million. But implied within that contract are other works that could bring the total up to $936 million.\nAmong other improvements, the new terminal will feature scanners able to X-ray all bags belonging to passengers entering and leaving Panama. However, the 1.8 million passengers simply transiting the airport will not be subjected to X-ray inspections.\nIn mid-September, state-run Tocumen SA reached an agreement with Panama\u2019s Ministry of Economy and Finance to issue $650 million of bonds to help finance the airport\u2019s expansion.\nDuring the first half of 2013, some 3.8 million passengers transited through Tocumen, averaging 20,807 \u2013 up from around 19,000 in the same period of 2012.\nLeading international destinations for flights departing Tocumen are, in descending order: Miami, Bogot\u00e1, San Jos\u00e9, Caracas, Mexico City, Havana, Houston, Lima, Santo Domingo and Medell\u00edn.\n\u201cThe increase achieved in the first half of the year is due, among other things, to the addition of new air routes and increased frequencies by European airlines and the local airline Copa, which has allowed us to reach new markets,\u201d said an airline official quoted in a Tocumen press release.\nThe Panamanian government also is trying to encourage tourism outside the capital. As such, Scarlett Mart\u00ednez International Airport in Cocl\u00e9 is expected to promote tourism development in the Pacific coastal region southwest of Panama City.\nAfter years of discussion, Panama\u2019s first regular passenger ferry to South America could finally become a reality in 2014. A European group is negotiating the operation of a route linking Col\u00f3n and Cartagena, Colombia \u2013 using a ferry with capacity for 1,500 passengers, 200 cars and 50 shipping containers.\nThe Panamanian press reports that such a service could begin as early as March, pending approval from the ATP, which apparently has agreed to provide $350,000 to cover part of the risk the unnamed firm would take on with this project.\nPanama has long been a popular cruise-ship destination, and during the 2013-14 season, some 120 cruise ships were expected to call on Col\u00f3n \u2013 with passenger spending on land averaging $125 while in port. Among these ships is Celebrity\u2019s El Gran Equinox, with 2,850 passengers, which will arrive six times during the season. Separately, Pullmantur\u2019s Monarch, with 2,766 visitors, will make 15 arrivals and departures between September and January, said Augusto Terracina, port manager at Col\u00f3n 2000.\nDon\u2019t stop Belizing\nNot to be forgotten, English-speaking Belize has become the latest entrant to the Central American cruise-ship market with the recent announcement that Norwegian Cruise Lines has purchased two islands in southern Belize to develop as a port of call for its western Caribbean cruises.\nNCL said it had bought 75 acres in the Stann Creek and Toledo districts for the development of its $50 million Harvest Caye project, which it hopes to complete in 2015.\n\u201cWhile the master plan for the 75 acres is still under development, the vision is to create a world-class cruise destination, consisting of two locations: an island destination with docking/tendering facilities and a mainland connection point for inland tours,\u201d NCL said in a press release.\nNorwegian has retained Orlando-based IDEA Inc. to design Harvest Caye, whose goal is to divert ships from Belize City, the country\u2019s commercial capital and main city. Among other things, the project will include a floating pier, an island village with open-air structures on raised platforms, a lagoon for water sports and a beach area.\n\u201cWith an emphasis on indigenous local culture, this new cruise destination will tell the unique story of Belize, and set a new standard in the development of an eco-friendly destination,\u201d said Hugh Darley, president of IDEA Inc.\nDarley said more than 600,000 passengers arrived through the port last year, and Norwegian alone is predicting passenger growth in the western Caribbean to more than double over the next four years. The master plan for the 75-acre site is still under development, said Darley, whose company has designed 15 major Caribbean ports.\nYet the Belize Tourism Industry Association angrily opposes the project.\nStewart Krohn, chairman of the BTIA and a hotelier in the village of Placencia, said the development would change Belize forever \u2013 and not in a good way. He claims that NCL will recover between $50 million and $100 million over the life of the 25-year concession through a $4 per passenger tax rebate, compared to the $50 million he says NCL paid for the land.\n\u201cThey are getting back more than they actually pay for the port. It is unheard of,\u201d Krohn recently told Belize\u2019s Channel 5 TV. \u201cThis is not about the MOU [memo of understanding]. It is about the concept of mass cruise tourism for southern Belize. It is just a bad deal, period. They are taking the tourism industry, which is the engine that drives our economy, and turning its direction 180 degrees from how it has been successfully operating. Why? I cannot understand why they would do that. There is no money in it for anybody.\u201d\nairportBanana CoastCentral AmericaCosta RicaCruisesNicaraguaPanamaRoat\u00e1n\nView all posts by Larry Luxner\nCosta Rica\u2019s deficit hits 5.4 percent of GDP with no sign of shrinking",

(Lindy Drew/The Tico Times)\nLONDON \u2013 A disease damaging banana crops in Southeast Asia has spread to the Middle East and Africa, posing risks to world supply and trade totaling $8.9 billion, according to the United Nations\u2019 Food and Agriculture Organization.\nThe TR4 strain of Panama disease, a soil-born fungus that attacks plant roots, is deadly for the Cavendish banana that makes up about 95 percent of supplies to importers, including North America and Europe, Fazil Dusunceli, an agriculture officer at the FAO, said by phone Tuesday from Rome. While the disease hasn\u2019t reached top Latin America exporters such as Ecuador, Costa Rica or Colombia, TR4 was discovered in Jordan and Mozambique, indicating it moved beyond Asia, he said.\n\u201cThe export market is dominated by the Cavendish, and it is unfortunately susceptible to this particular race of the disease,\u201d Dusunceli said. \u201cThis is serious for the medium term, but at the same time we should avoid panicking too.\u201d\nGlobal exports reached a record value in 2011 and totaled 18.7 million metric tons, making bananas the world\u2019s most widely-traded fruit, according to the most recent FAO data. The U.S. is the top importer, followed by Belgium, the data show. Belgium\u2019s Port of Antwerp is the world\u2019s largest banana port, it says.\nU.S. consumer prices for bananas were 59.9 cents a pound in February, 2.2 percent higher than an almost three-year low reached in October at 58.6 cents a pound, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The export price of bananas from Ecuador, the world\u2019s biggest shipper, and Central America for U.S. destinations was $966.85 a ton in March, the highest in 18 months, according to the International Monetary Fund.\nTens of thousands of hectares of banana crops in Indonesia, China, Malaysia, the Philippines and Australia have been destroyed since the TR4 strain of Panama disease, a type of Fusarium wilt, first appeared in Asia in the 1990s, according to Wageningen University in the Netherlands.\nA different strain of Panama disease decimated another common banana variety known as Gros Michel in the 1950s, leading producers to switch to Cavendish, which was then resistant, according to the university.\n\u201cThe Cavendish variety has been very successful in fighting against this disease we must acknowledge, but this is a biological cycle,\u201d Dusunceli said. \u201cFor any crop, once we develop a cultivar, then the disease develops more aggressive pathogenic strains against that crop in time. Sometimes it takes a few years, sometimes it takes decades.\u201d\nScientists are working to develop new varieties of bananas that might be resistant to the TR4 strain, \u201cbut until that time we just recommend that countries take phytosanitary measures carefully to try to contain the disease,\u201d Dusunceli said.\nbanana exportsCavendishPanama disease\nWhitney McFerron | Bloomberg\nView all posts by Whitney McFerron | Bloomberg\nOffshore World Championship begins with 764 billfish releases",

        "raw_content": "Barrett shows leadership in Shrine defeat\nST. PETERSBURG, Fla. \u2014 For J.T. Barrett, playing in the 93rd East-West Shrine game was more about showing what type of leader he is than impressing statistically.\n\u201cI think, at the end of the day, I wanted to show I could command the offense,\u201d the Big Ten\u2019s career total yardage leader said Saturday.\n\u201cI think that\u2019s part of who I am, and at quarterback that\u2019s what you need,\u201d Barrett added. \u201cI was able to do it at Ohio State, and I think I did a pretty good job this week of commanding the offense and owning it.\u201d\nTexas Tech\u2019s Nic Shimonek threw a 34-yard touchdown pass to Houston\u2019s Steven Dunbar with 1:23 remaining to give the West a 14-10 victory.\nBarrett completed a 30-yard pass to move the East into West territory, however his bid to pull off a comeback ended with four consecutive incompletions.\n\u201cNic threw a great pass and I couldn\u2019t do anything but catch it,\u201d said Dunbar, who had three receptions for 52 yards. \u201cIt was a play we tried a couple of times, and it was finally there. I\u2019m just thankful to be in a position to do this.\u201d\nWisconsin safety Natrell Jamerson returned Barrett\u2019s early fumble 68 yards for the West\u2019s other TD in the nation\u2019s longest running college all-star game. Barrett amassed 12,697 yards and accounted for 147 TDs in four seasons at Ohio State.\nHe wasn\u2019t impressive statistically Saturday in trying to show he has what it takes to make a successful transition from a college spread offense to a pro-style system.\nThe former Buckeyes star did, however, shrug off his first-quarter turnover to throw a 4-yard scoring pass to Slippery Rock\u2019s Marcus Martin that put the East ahead 10-7.\nNorthern Iowa\u2019s Daurice Fountain had three catches for 61 yards and set up Barrett\u2019s TD throw to Martin, the NCAA Division II sack leader and 2017 lineman of the year, with a 30-yard punt return and a 16-yard reception.\n\u201cA long time ago I heard Andrew Luck say \u2018you can\u2019t go broke taking a profit.\u2019 I didn\u2019t want to get greedy and skip that first read, so with that I took it and our guy did a great job to catch it and score,\u201d Barrett said of the completion to Martin, a defensive end who may have a future as a fullback.\n\u201cIt felt amazing, it was something I always thought about and wanted to play but in the offense we ran at Slippery Rock we didn\u2019t really use a fullback,\u201d Martin said. \u201cI asked the coaches if they minded if I played some fullback and I spent all week learning the playbook.\u201d\nShimonek finished 12 of 18 for 105 yards and zero interceptions, while splitting snaps with Colorado State\u2019s Nick Stevens and Sam Houston State\u2019s Jeremiah Briscoe.\nBarrett said during the week that his main objective was to get better rather prove anything to NFL scouts assembled for four days of practices and the game.\nSouth Florida\u2019s Quentin Flowers was another dual-threat quarterback expected to showcase his passing skills after excelling in a spread offense at USF. He practiced all week, but withdrew from the game due to a death in his family.\nBarrett completed 64.7 percent of his passes for 3,053 yards and 35 touchdowns, while also rushing for 798 yards and 12 scores in leading Ohio State to the Big Ten championship as a fifth-year senior.\nHe was just five of 12 for 69 yards passing Saturday and watched Jamerson return his first-quarter fumble up the sideline in front of the East bench for the game\u2019s first TD.\n\u201cI saw the ball behind the line of scrimmage and I didn\u2019t hear a whistle so I just ran to the ball and scooped it up and went to the end zone,\u201d Jamerson said.\nWith Flowers missing the game, Barrett shared playing time with Memphis\u2019 Riley Ferguson, who set up a first-half field goal with a 38-yard completion to Fountain.\nFountain was chosen the game\u2019s most outstanding offensive player. Jamerson received the award for most outstanding defensive player.",

        "title": "The Twelve Tribes | German Homeschooling Press Conference",
        "raw_content": "German Homeschooling Press Conference\nOctober 15, 2004 in Pf\u00e4fflingen, Germany\nHolger R\u00f6hrs, father of four children\nA few words about myself: I am married, my wife is American. We have four children of which the two older ones are of school age. Being an American, my wife certainly cannot comprehend the German jurisdiction, just as little as Mr. Guenther. Americans have a concept of freedom that is very different from that of Europeans and especially Germans, because of their tradition. On the license plates of the state of New Hampshire it says, for example, \u201cLive free or die.\u201d So this is the American concept of freedom which almost no German can comprehend.\nSo, now we have been introducing ourselves a little bit. We are families, we live together. We are not out of touch with the world. We run an organic farm; we supply health food stores and restaurants in the area. We are one of several organic farms in the central Ries area. Every year, we have several hundred guests with us on the farm estate who either work with us or only stay for the day. Some stay for a week, some for several weeks straight. We are not afraid of people by any means, we enjoy meeting people. We enjoy showing anyone our life.\nTwo weeks ago, we had a Thanksgiving celebration here where several families from the neighboring villages participated. It was very nice. We had activities for the children. Last year, we celebrated three large weddings. At some of them we had more than 100 guests. We want our way of life to make God's love a little bit more real to people, and we want people to be able to find something here which they do not find in society at large \u2014 something that you do not really sense there.\nAre we really out of touch with life or the world? Our children speak fluent English. Very many of them grow up speaking English, just like my children since their mother tongue is obviously English. But all our children grow up bilingually. They have all sorts of cultural experiences. We have a lot of international contacts. My family and I have lived in France for a year, in Israel for half a year. And one year ago, a Brazilian family spent several months here. Also, an American family lived here with us for a year. These are real-life experiences. Our children do not need to have them in classrooms or get them out of books. There are Americans, Hungarians, Dutch, and Swiss people living in our Community in Klosterzimmern. All these afford us with cultural enrichment. We are not interested in isolating ourselves. On the contrary \u2014 we like interacting with people.\nWe have our own income, our own industry. We have a crafts business. We do not receive any unemployment benefits or welfare money; we support ourselves. We do not have a whole lot of money; we live a simple life. And whatever children's benefits we do receive, we use for special projects which profit our children and youth, e.g., training projects, special jobs that we do with our children where they can really learn something. [The money] actually goes where it is supposed to go, that is, to our children.\nWe did not desire or cause the current escalation or the pending coercive detention. The school law, or the punishment for non-compliance with it, really was designed for truants \u2014 for the parents of children or youth who simply do not feel like going to school, but who would rather hang out in gambling dens or department stores, wasting their time. This is what the law was made for. The purpose of the compulsory education law is, was, and should still be for children to get an education \u2014 that their education would not be neglected, but that they would get prepared for their adult life and become a productive element of society, so that they would not have to say afterwards, \u201cI cannot do anything, I do not know anything, I cannot read. State, please help me.\u201d However, if this law is satisfied otherwise, e.g., by our daily classes, in the parents' own initiative, if our children are going to reach the level of a basic secondary school, then the purpose of the law is fulfilled.\nIf I think of Konrad Adenauer for example \u2014 most people are aware of this \u2014 Konrad Adenauer was home-schooled. Konrad Adenauer did not go to public school. The great statesman from America, Abraham Lincoln, was taught in a log cabin and wrote speeches which the average American today can hardly understand, so beautiful was the style in which he wrote English. Albert Einstein was a brilliant failure in school. So compulsory education is not a guarantee for success in education. We do not belong in the mainstream; that means we are a small society within the larger society.\nAnd we have different values. This morning, we have heard of a few values that we live for and which our life is all about, which also we want to pass on to our children foremost of all. And we do not want to get sucked into the mainstream values. Society at large has to be able to tolerate minorities and must not just impose its own values on small minorities and dictate these values and educational goals to parents. You do not have to live with us in Klosterzimmern; you just have to keep your eyes peeled and your ears tuned, and you are quickly going to realize that there is a lot in public schools that is going awry. For months and even years there have been reports in the media about the public school system almost every day, and most of the time it is bad news.\nWhat bothers us a lot as parents is the moral decline of modern society; that very few values are being passed on to children and youths, that values have become optional, that there are no more standards. As Mr. Markeli already mentioned, we take offense at sexual education in the classroom. For instance, Sigmund Freud spoke about early sexualization, and sexual education by the state is an early sexualization. If seven- or eight-year-olds may not even be interested in such things yet, if they do not even have those kinds of questions yet naturally, but they get stimulated, then it sets a process in motion. This is how Sigmund Freud explained it: \u201cChildren who get sexually stimulated are no longer educable. The destruction of natural shame causes the breakdown of inhibitions in every other area. Brutality and disrespect for the personality of man.\u201d This is Sigmund Freud saying this. The result of this moral decline is that nowadays, every third child that is conceived in Germany gets aborted \u2014 every third child. Over the last 30 years, eight million children have been aborted in Germany. And these things are interconnected; they are not independent from each other. Among youth there has been an increase in the readiness to resort to violence. This is documented in studies by the Federal Bureau of Criminal Investigation. These are available on the Internet. The misuse of alcohol and drugs also is on the increase. Why is it that laws are being tightened more and more? Because the government realizes that [the situation] is sliding out of its control.\nFines and coercive detention are the wrong methods. You cannot change a true conviction with fines and imprisonment. The word fine [in German] connotes penance, repentance, change. The district court judge of N\u00f6rdlingen wrote that coercive detention became necessary if a fine [in German carrying the meaning of penance, repentance, change] did not accomplish a re-education with a view to a future lawful behavior, meaning that we parents would send our children to school afterwards. This is the purpose of the fine. For reasons of conscience we could not, still cannot, and never will pay these fines. Fines connote change. We are not going to sell out our conviction. And the state, the Government of Bavaria, knew this. That we were going to be true to our conviction is what we already told them years ago, and we re-emphasized it time and time again and testified it in court. And nevertheless, the state has acted in this way, knowing that this would result in an escalation. This was calculated.\nIt should all be about our children, about their wellbeing. This is why we teach our children at home. It should all be about our children, but unfortunately they are the ones to suffer. As I said at the beginning, it is not only about fathers or men going to prison, or [mothers or] women going to prison, but it is about families. It is about children. There are a lot of parents, and of course a father and a mother want the best for their child. But there are many other families in Germany in desperate straits; they know they will be able to pass something of greater value on to their children by teaching them at home. Here you can see a map. It is well-known that more than 600 children in Germany are being taught in this way. So there are many more than the thirty or forty children we have. And these families are in desperate straits. And we will not give up our conviction. The government needs to see how it treats people who are able to think for themselves and want to pass something on to their children in their own initiative. We will not give in to the state's threatening us with imprisonment to make us pay the fine. We will not do that.\nWe are not looking to be martyrs. Some accuse us, saying, \u201cWell, now you are just letting it all happen to you.\u201d This is not what it is about. This is a conscience-based decision. It is not about an opinion we have, or about obtaining a privileged status, or about what we might prefer. It is a matter of conscience. We cannot act any other way.\nFrom the beginning, the state adopted a hard line. And from the beginning, we sought a dialog. In the other states [of Germany] we had found sensible officials, especially in Lower Saxony and Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg. Here in Bavaria the doors to the Ministry of Education have been closed to us so far. The state of Bavaria insists on its monopoly on education, and really it wants to scare off other citizens. After all, who wants to go through what we are having to go through right now? Who wants to go to prison? [Some may say,] \u201cAll things considered, I'd rather send my child to school, even though it hurts in my heart and in my conscience, because I do not want to risk my job, my income, or my house.\u201d The state of Bavaria wants more than 150,000 Euros' worth of fines from us \u2014 unjustly. It wants to get rich. And I want to make this very clear \u2014 the youth department in Donauw\u00f6rth knows that our children are doing well and that this coercive detention is against the wellbeing of children. If anyone thinks that our children are not doing well \u2014 and you have just seen them \u2014 you are welcome to visit us and get your own idea of our children. Our children are happy children. They grow up secure, they have confidence, and they are looking forward to their adult life; they are not afraid of the future.\nThe pending coercive detention also has overtones of some other things, shameful details. I think there are other fathers and mothers here that are affected and might want to talk about these things themselves afterwards. But let me just mention the case of a young woman from our community. She is married by now, she is Portuguese, and as a Portuguese citizen she has filed for German citizenship. Her husband is German, was born and raised in Germany; she does not know Portugal at all, she speaks no Portuguese, so she is as German as German can be. However, her application for naturalization has been rejected because she did not go to German school for eight years. So much for that.\nAlso, the state of Bavaria is going to throw a mother in prison who is severely ill with rheumatism, whose doctor has attested to her unfitness to undergo detention. But the forensic pathologist does not agree, and so this woman is supposed to undergo detention. On top of that she has a five-month-old nursing baby.\n[Mr. Krumbacher, father of three children, gets up and explains his situation.]\nHolger R\u00f6hrs, continued\nI think that what this is really about is to come to one's senses. Where is common sense? We are not lawless people. We pay our taxes. We abide by the law. We do not have anything against the state. We are not subversive, we are not hostile towards democracy \u2014 we stand firmly on the [German] constitution. The state does not need to fear us. On the contrary: Many policemen tell us, \u201cIf everybody lived as you do we would be out of work.\u201d But in that one point, the law of compulsory school attendance, where it is about our precious children and their education and upbringing, we cannot make any compromises. Just as we do not pay and will not pay our fines for reasons of conscience, we parents are not going to turn ourselves in today [to begin this prison sentence].\nWhat is the solution? What is going to happen next? Is the solution to send us to prison twice a year? Is the solution really to hit us with fines two to three times a year? Meanwhile, these fines amount to more than 150,000.00 Euros, which we could not ever pay. What shall we do? Shall we flee Germany? Do we not have rights anymore? Are we citizens with no rights in this country? This would expose Germany, Bavaria, and democracy. We like it in Bavaria, we enjoy living here. We enjoy living in the Ries area. We have met with a tremendous amount of support from the people here. But we cannot and will not give up our children's education. So, what is the solution?\nWe still hope that there is democracy \u2014 a democratic state under the rule of law. I have a map here which shows the educational landscape of Europe [see map here]. Yellow means there is compulsory education [in most European countries other than Germany], that means it is tolerated if parents teach on their own initiative unless it is explicitly ruled out by the constitution or the educational laws. Germany [in red] really is the only country in the European Community \u2014 and we did not just present it that way \u2014 that takes massive and brutal action against parents, even here in Bavaria. These are reprisals which are unworthy of a democracy. And it all fails because the Ministry of Education in Munich does not answer the many letters we have written over the past years, and some colleagues of Mrs. Hohlmeier's [the Minister of Education here in Bavaria] threw us out when we tried to talk to her personally early this year. Mrs. Hohlmeier has lost connection to the electorate, she lacks the sensitivity to deal with our situation. She takes a hard line and throws good sense overboard. We want to talk to Mrs. Hohlmeier. We want to find a way to live together and get along with each other. We are interested in having a good relationship with the authorities. We are thankful for the government which maintains order. We are thankful for the police who care for our security so that I can sleep in peace, without having to be afraid of dangerous people breaking into my house.\nIn the United States some of our communities are simply recognized as private schools \u2014 as initiatives of parents that joined together to teach their children. We offer the state of Bavaria to conduct transparent classes. We have always invited the Civil Servants to get to know us and our children, our teaching methods as well as our curriculum materials, and to view our students' records complete with our own tests and test results. We have nothing against constructive criticism, on the contrary \u2014 we are glad to increase in our learning. We invite the state of Bavaria to have a good conscience [about us] and supervise our classes. But we do not want them to determine what our children learn, or when, or how, because we as parents take responsibility for this. We want our school in Klosterzimmern to be recognized and legalized. We do not like being regarded as lawbreakers. This is embarrassing to us. We hope and pray every day to find Civil Servants here in Bavaria to whom children matter more than regulations.",

        "raw_content": "Marfa Girl - Larry Clark Does It Again! - Unhinged Reviews\n\"Sex,drugs and rock-n-roll. all the things that make a Larry Clark film..a Larry Clark film\"\nIn 2012, Larry Clark unleashed his film, Marfa Girl into the the world which followed up earlier hits such as Kids and Bully.\n\"Marfa Girl\" maintains the same raw edgy story line that Clark fans have become accustomed to over the years.\n\u200b But it also brings something different....\nAdam is much like the other kids in most Clark films, troubled, young and eager to have sex with whoever's willing. The difference in Marfa Girl when compared to some of his other films is that it doesn't feel so much like a documentary this time around.\nMarfa Girl actually has a plot which is still wild as ever, but this one seems to have an message which isn't necessarily lost in shock value.\nNow, no one really knows what Clark's true intentions are when making such films, but this one captures the story of several misguided souls within a small town called Marfa.\nYeah, it's an actual town in Texas. Adam(Mediano) is the lead character in the film, as he plays a young man living in a \"Nowhere's Ville\" town just trying to graduate high school and stay out of trouble.\nThe biggest problem Adam faces being in the middle of nowhere is \"How do you stay out of trouble when that's all that's out there?\".\nSo of course the usual intoxicants are all at the ready, per Clark standard issue, to help Adam find his way. But will he figure things out before the drama in this dead end town swallows him whole?\nA Word About About Clark Films\nNow aside from being in-your-face edgy, Clark films capture a side of the world that big productions are afraid to show.\nClark's films show the impact that idle time and lack of resources can have on today's youth. All one has to do is look at all the mischief going on in the world today to know that even at the start, Clark told the truth.\nTeens across the country are having sex way too young, abusing drugs and alcohol, all while trying to cope with a hopeless future. Now of course, most of the kid's stories featured in Clark's films live in impoverished neighborhoods where there is no such thing as a good day, but the images are spot on.\nTake a walk through any high school and your bound to see a pregnant teenager or a kid looking to score drugs. This is the world we live in and as harsh as it is, it's only going to keep getting worse unless there is a mindset shift.\nToday's children need to realize that there is another way to cope with poverty and misfortune rather than throwing themselves to the wolves. They need to see a renewed strength in family, stronger values in school and a support system that they can depend on.\nWhat they don't need is more drugs, more violence and vacant parents trying to make up for their own lost childhood. It's tough times out here, but hopefully if each person does their part to make a difference..maybe we can save the next Marfa Girl.\nAfter Watching, Marfa Girl...\nOne has to wonder where Clark will go next. What pain in society will his next story bring to the surface. He's already shown just how \"F'd\" a lot of children's futures are because of poor parenting.\nBut what will he take on next? Only time will tell...\nIf you enjoyed this Unhinged Review of \"Marfa Girl\", please share it with another film lover.\nLooking For More Unhinged Clark Films? >Check This Out<",

        "raw_content": "When the independent, bipartisan Sept. 11 commission issued its report in July 2004, an alarming fact was emphasized: Terrorists need valid identification to board an airplane. The commission asserted that \u201cfor terrorists, travel documents are as important as weapons.\u201d Congress subsequently passed the Real ID Act, which was quickly signed into law by President George W. Bush.\nUnder that act, states must shift to \u201csecure\u201d driver\u2019s licenses and identification cards by verifying that anyone who asks for a driver\u2019s license or identification card is actually the person he or she purports to be. States are required to verify an applicant\u2019s Social Security number, lawful immigration status and identity.\nDespite the fact that a unanimous Senate -- including then-Sen. Barack Obama -- passed the Real ID Act, several senators recently introduced legislation known as the Pass ID Act, which promises to return the nation to pre-Sept. 11 dangers.\nUnder the Pass ID legislation, about which the secretary of homeland security testified last week, states would no longer need to verify a person's identity before issuing a driver\u2019s license or identification card. They would not be required to resolve Social Security number mismatches; nor would they need to ensure the person does not possess duplicate or additional licenses or identification cards issued from other states.\nThe Pass ID Act would not fine-tune Real ID; it would neutralize or weaken numerous protections that Real ID provides.\nOnly 16 states are complying with benchmarks set by the Department of Homeland Security\nSo far, 16 states are complying with benchmarks set by the Department of Homeland Security or are on track to comply by the end of this year. States have until 2014 to begin issuing the \u201csecure\u201d driver\u2019s licenses and identification cards and until 2017 for full compliance. Why stop the progress we\u2019ve made?\nWhile developing Real ID, the Bush administration sought and received bipartisan participation. DHS received more than 21,000 comments on the proposed rule and made numerous amendments before issuing the final rule in January 2008. The process was transparent and responsive from beginning to end.\nThe Sept. 11 commission recognized that a driver\u2019s license is only as good as the information it contains. The ability of terrorists to obtain multiple driver\u2019s licenses and state-issued identification cards increases the security threat to America. The implications are clear: Valid driver\u2019s licenses that are issued based on a fraudulently obtained or fake birth certificate exacerbate our national security vulnerabilities.\nCongress should not reverse course and ignore the findings of the Sept. 11 commission. Sadly, that is exactly what the Obama administration and a handful of Democratic senators are trying to do.",

I listened to the whole thing while working in my studio and for anyone who loves animals (which is most people) this is a must-listen. The wordy sub-title is very fitting for the sentiment in this book. There are vignettes that explore how we, the Big Boss humans that we are, relate to animals in their \"natural\" environment. Their place in a spectrum of likeness to us, whether in appearance or behavior, is inextricably linked to the prospect of their survival on this big, green planet. That is polar bears are much more marketable to the \"save the species\" campaign than the wolf spider, simply because they have forward facing eyes and fur as opposed to creepy, crawly legs. There's an underlying story of empathy that is warmly reassuring to balance out some of the depressing postulates put forth in the book. This one will definitely make you re-think your own behaviors and conceptions of the world around, which is exactly what I want my non-fiction to do.\nP.S. A great follow-up listen to this is Animal Wise: The Thoughts and Emotions of Our Fellow Creatures, which I promptly listened to right after I finished Wild Ones because I was so engrossed in the over-arching story.",

        "raw_content": "In the world of A-list automobiles, it\u2019s essential to make a statement when choosing which money-no-object motor will take pride of place in your garage\u2026\nHugh Grant may be considered the epitome of a classy Brit, but his vehicular tastes appear to be far more European than the clipped enunciation and foppish charm that made him a household name and Hollywood heavyweight.\nHis pride and joy remains the stunning Ferrari California convertible that was bought as a gift to himself on the occasion of his 50th birthday. Built entirely out of light-weight aluminium, the California is powered by a twin-turbocharged, direct-injected 3.9-liter V8 engine that allows for a phenomenal top speed of 196 mph.\nThe Ferrari California is a far cry from pre-fame Grant\u2019s first car, a Citro\u00ebn Dyane, which he describes as \u201ca very pathetic car with the power of one child pulling it by harness.\u201d Nowadays, the California provides a mode of transport more befitting of Grant\u2019s A-list stature, and the star remains infatuated with \u201cthe bang-bang noise of the engine when downshifting.\u201d\nDespite his often prickly past with regards to the prying lens of the paparazzi, it\u2019s fair to assume that Grant\u2019s gun-metal California certainly turns heads whenever the 56-year-old decides to take it for a spin.\nFor a girl who grew up in working-class Puerto Rican family in New York\u2019s tough Bronx neighbourhood, Jennifer Lopez has enjoyed one of the most successful careers of any female entertainer \u2013 even becoming the first woman to have a number one album, J.Lo, and film, The Wedding Planner, in the same week.\nThe 47-year-old superstar has long been hailed as a fashion icon, and her impeccable taste also extends to her car collection, with the beautiful singer and actress owning an incredible white Bentley Continental GTC convertible.\nAs well as falling in love with the \u201cvery smooth ride\u201d that the Bentley offers \u2013 which especially comes in handy while J-Lo ferries twins Emme and Max around L.A \u2013 the gleaming vehicle also boasts a massive 590 horsepower, and a top speed of around 200mph, ensuring that the pop queen always has an element of showbiz to her, even when negotiating traffic.\nSimon Cowell has very exacting standards, a fact made abundantly clear over the years as the blunt-spoken head judge on some of telly\u2019s most popular reality shows. As well as having an eye for finding the next big thing in the world of show business, Cowell is no slouch when it comes to choosing the finer things in life.\nPerhaps the best example of this is his Jaguar Eagle Speedster. As well as combining a top speed of around 160 mph with hand-crafted aluminium elegance, the Jaguar Eagle Speedster is arguably one of the most beautiful automobiles on Earth.\nThe Eagle is just the latest in a long line of Jags for super-fan Cowell, bringing an undeniable X Factor to a garage that already houses an E-type classic, an F-type and two XK models.\nWith good looks, a beautiful wife and a glittering career, it seems that George Clooney has done a pretty good job at carving out his own niche as one of Hollywood\u2019s biggest names. His choice of supercar, however, draws a link back to the successes of his father, Nick, who originally owned the gorgeous 1959 Chevrolet Corvette that Clooney Jr. still frequently uses.\nDespite also owning a garage packed to the rafters with beautiful vehicles of both the two-wheeled and four-wheeled variety \u2013 including a Lexus and a number of Harley-Davidsons \u2013 the actor\u2019s vintage Chevvy is sure to take pride of place in his collection.\nNews anchor Nick Clooney purchased the red-and-white roadster the year that it hit the mark, and was considered to be at the cutting-edge of the American automobile industry. George subsequently had the car restored to perfection, and cuts a suave figure behind the wheel of a car as iconic as this.\nAs one of the biggest music moguls of all time, and one half of the world\u2019s biggest celebrity super-couple, it\u2019s only fitting perhaps that Jay Z should own one of the most expensive cars on earth \u2013 the magnificent Maybach Exelero. This incredible automobile was first associated with Shawn Carter when it took centre-stage in the rapper\u2019s \u2018Lost Ones\u2019 video, alongside friend and long-time collaborator Kanye West.\nThe concept for the Exelero was first brought about in order to road-test tires for manufacturer Fulda, but despite weighing in at a massive 2.6 tonnes, the car still manages to max out at an impressive 220 mph, and combines the elegance of a limousine with the sleek power of a sports coupe.\nThe Exelero remains so exclusive that it appears no-one really knows how many of these incredible cars have been made, but each one certainly lives up to its Latin name, which combines \u2018eccelso\u2019, meaning sublime, and \u2018accelero\u2019, or acceleration, for an incredible, unique combination of power and prestige.\nLeonardo DiCaprio isn\u2019t just an Academy Award winner and one of Hollywood\u2019s top leading men, he\u2019s also a dedicated and outspoken advocate for environmentalism. Whilst his colleagues and peers tend to gravitate towards gas-guzzling supercars, DiCaprio\u2019s garage reflects his desire to do his bit for the planet \u2013 with the Tesla Roadster taking main stage amongst a plethora of eco-friendly speedsters, including a hybrid Toyota Prius and an aptly-named Frisker Karma.\nThe Roadster, however, is the most elite of electric cars, accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in an astonishingly quick 3 seconds and reportedly running for 380 km on a single charge of its cutting-edge lithium batteries.\nOf course, when you are both a cinematic legend and on a mission to improve awareness of the planet\u2019s plight, a Tesla Roadster is the perfect vehicle to save the world in A-list style.\nA lover of the Rolls Royce brand, former football superstar David Beckham has an impressive array of other exotic cars in his over-flowing garage \u2013 including an Audi S8, a Porsche Turbo Cabriolet, a Cadillac Escalad, a customised Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, and a Jeep Wrangler.\nThese days, however, his car of choice is the Rolls Royce Ghost, a successor to his previous Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead. The Ghost, now produced in a Series II version, boasts a 6.6-liter turbocharged V-12 engine that produces a massive 563 horsepower. An 8-speed automatic gearbox allows for the smoothest drive of possibly any car available, staying true to the Rolls Royce marque.\nIncredibly for a car that houses a V-12 under the hood, the Ghost stays true to its name by only emitting a slight hum at low speeds, making it the perfect vehicle for city-dwellers. Out on the open road, however, the BMW-designed engine delivers the kind of Germanic thrusts that will satisfy even the most hardened of automotive aficionado.",

        "raw_content": "~~ Ephesians 2:10 (NASB) ~~ For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.\nI went to a small business college, and I graduated with a diploma that, at the time, qualified me to be a Computer Programmer and an entry level Accountant; topped off with some business courses. After I graduated I had a very hard time finding a job. For a very long time I heard the same old thing from every potential employer \u201cSorry, but you don\u2019t have experience. Come back when you\u2019ve have some experience.\u201d Not one of them, though, told me how I was supposed to get experience without being hired somewhere\nSo, what job did I finally get?! I\u2019m glad you asked. I ended up working at a job that I was over qualified for; Mary Brown\u2019s Fried Chicken, in St.John\u2019s, Newfoundland, as a kitchen / counter worker. I don\u2019t even know if the job actually had a title. It was not at all what I had dreamed about, but it helped pay the rent on my first apartment. A few years later, I finally did get a great office job that I loved; after I moved to Barrie, Ontario. It happened to be with The Salvation Army; a Christian charitable organization, so I felt that I had an even bigger purpose than just enjoying the work. I loved it so much that a big chuck of my time there were extra hours as a volunteer, and it didn\u2019t even occur to me to mind that I didn\u2019t get paid for so many extra hours.\nThen, life took a big unexpected turn. I was in a nasty car accident that turned my life upside down and left me in physiotherapy for two years. It was a six-car pileup on an icy Ontario highway. My injuries lead to other health issues, and eventually, I had to leave my job. Around that same time my marriage ended. My health issues got worse; and the end result is that I\u2019ve only had work-at-home jobs since (either helping to run a business, or doing something creative). I\u2019ve technically been out of the workforce for a long time now. Though, I still have health issues, I would love to get back into it. I don\u2019t want to sacrifice my writing for it, but the problem is that now I feel under qualified for anything and everything. I did get some further education in more recent years, but even still, my education is way out of date, and I don\u2019t have recent experience. That is, outside of a volunteer job that I do one day per week at the church office. I figure that no one in any industry that I would want to work for would take me seriously, let alone take a chance on hiring me.\nIt is the same feeling that I get when I think about being called to work for God. I don\u2019t feel qualified. I don\u2019t even feel like I\u2019m taken seriously by those around me let alone hope to get a ministry; or a position, where I could lead someone to Christ or to discipleship. I\u2019ve made so many mistakes in life; committed so many bad sins. Most of the time I don\u2019t even feel qualified for an entry level position, let alone to be have a dream career!\nThe other day someone left a comment that said \u201cCarley, As usual another AWESOME Blog. It seems as though you have become my Spiritual Life Coach. What would I ever do without you? Blessings my friend.\u201d.\nAnother person left a comment on one of my other blog sites that said \u201cCarley... You are the best blogger ever!! You are smart and funny! I just found your blogs and can't wait to read the rest... Thank you.\u201d\nI replied with a thank you and telling the people how much it meant to me and how honored I was to receive such compliments. It humbled me more than I can say. I know that in God\u2019s eyes, humility like that is a very good thing. However, it makes me feel a little confused as well. Sometimes even a little dishonest. That\u2019s because the truth is, that most days I feel like I\u2019m treading water and sinking fast. How could I coach anyone when I don\u2019t know what I\u2019m doing myself? I can\u2019t imagine that I am the \u2018best ever\u2019 anything. Well, except the best Carley; but that could potentially lead me to a whole series of other thoughts and questions, which I\u2019ll leave for another blog. There are those that have way more education, experience, intelligence; and a better relationship with God than I do who aren\u2019t the best ever. I have no clue where I\u2019m supposed to be in life, or what direction I\u2019m supposed to go in. I feel like I\u2019m probably the only one who\u2019s still so lost at this late date in my life. Most people I know seemed to have figured out so much at an early age. Why haven\u2019t I? Where did I get lost? The only things I know about myself with much certainty are that I have some sort of a gift in written words, that my heart desperately aches every day for a relationship, and that I do feel vastly different from the rest of the planet (which traces back to my Social Anxiety and Bipolar Disorders).\nEach and every one of us is called to the job of spreading the gospel (Mark 16:15 NIV84), and to create disciples for Jesus (Matthew 28:19 NIV1984). As unsure I am of my own qualifications; I know that God doesn\u2019t see me as being incapable. I love Him, and I want more than anything for my heart to be like Jesus; the way God wants it to be. I\u2019m willing to let Him change me; even though it\u2019s hard. The bible is filled with characters that were inexperienced, sinful, and even willingly ran from their calling. However, God chose them to do the job anyway. He loved them nevertheless. We don\u2019t need prior experience, or knowledge; before He is willing to hire us. You see, He not only has already planned and prepared our jobs for us, but He provides us with on the job training. I really want this job. How about you? The benefit package is out of this world!\n~~ Dear God ~~ Thank You so much for creating a job position especially for me. Please let me feel Your peace within me with each and every day of doing Your work that goes by. Give me confidence in my abilities, and help me to have stronger faith in Your leading. Please keep me in humility, and let me feel joyous in every duty that I fulfill.

Many blessings to you. HUGS.\nPMCFARM June 09, 2012\nCarley... this goodie is the closest I could get to give you your own personal rainbow. I have been reading and re-reading your blogs and usually too overwhelmed to write you even a quick thank you note. Almost always I feel our shared Father has lead you to write in very human terms exactly what I need to read at exactly the right time! Today as I read your blog He bounced me on my head...I quote from you,... \"There are those that have way more education, experience, intelligence; and a better relationship with God than I do who aren't the best ever. I have no clue where I'm supposed to be in life, or what direction I'm supposed to go in. I feel like I'm probably the only one who's still so lost at this late date in my life. Most people I know seemed to have figured out so much at an early age. Why haven't I? Where did I get lost? The only things I know about myself with much certainty are that I have some sort of a gift in written words, that my heart desperately aches every day for a relationship, and that I do feel vastly different from the rest of the planet (which traces back to my Social Anxiety and Bipolar Disorders).\" I hardly know how I am to respond to this, except that most of the first sentence are manmade expectations (don't even use them as a measuring because you are much better). Sentence 2 is exactly correct and is why God doesn't reveal everything He does and wants from us ahead of time (He knows we manipulate & whine to get our own way).The rest of these sentences show that you are following one of Gods' most important instructions... prepare yourself (prayer, scripture, fasting) then WAIT on Him to show you how He will use you. I am not sure when I hear someone sure of who they are (in human terms) and what they expect to do or how they expect to be used, are really sitting quietly before God praising, worshiping & WAITING! The 2 diagnosis' you mentioned are sometimes the side effects of an imperfect, judgemental society both can be and should be treated medically but more importantly in prayer. I have to tell you, I must remind myself daily that God uses all kinds of cracked pots! He made us, the sometimes has to crack us to use us. You are not alone on the planet... we're probably in the majority and not yet strong enough to speak out!\nThank you for the SparkGoodie, and your wonderful words. You have touched my heart today; when I needed it the most. Thank you seems very insufficient for how much it's helped me today; but I don't know any better or bigger words than THANKS to YOU! Many blessings to you my friend. BIG HUGS!\nGod prepares us tondo His work and he prepares us for the job He desires for us to have. He does all things well, if we just listen and obey.\nThank you for reading and for the great comments. Many blessings to you. HUGS.\nMJRVIC2000 June 09, 2012\nThere is a song we ing,\"There Is Balm In Gilead\", tat expresss your thoughts:\nTo heal the sin sick soul.\nSome times I feel discouraged,\nAnd think my work\u2019s in vain,\nBut then the Holy Spirit\nRevives my soul again.\nIf you can\u2019t preach like Peter,\nIf you can\u2019t pray like Paul,\nJust tell the love of Jesus,\nAnd say He died for all.\nGod Bless You Carley! In His Love! Vic.\nVic, some days I'm not sure how I ever got along without you. You are a blessing for sure. I've never heard this before, but you are so right. It sums up how I'm feeling perfectly. Thank you dearest friend. Many blessings to you. BIG HUGS.\nI found it on YouTube. I listened to a few versions there. this one is my favorite:\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okl2XbTM7xM\nMay we all learn how to follow God's calling to do what his will would be for our lives. For some of us (aka me), we can be pretty slow learners. I would not have the joy and peace in my life were it not for the relationship I have in Christ. You set a good example for us to follow, Carley. -- Evelyn\nThank you so much Evelyn. As always, you give me such awesome support. It helps more than you know. Many blessings to you, dear friend. BIG HUGS.\nI read what you wrote and it was from the heart. To speak your mind is awesome that is what God wants from us to be honest, I excepted the Lord at 48 and meant it, but back slid many time until I thought I got it right but didn't, I have to laugh sometimes at myself if I didn't I cry, sometimes I act crasy and don't know why, I know God has to think Juanita here you go again, I repent and don't know why I lost it, but one thing I know God will never give up on me, I been out of work for 3 years now, a fill in here and there because God has provide that job for me, I have no degrees, I know how to care for children, which is my calling, and run households, at 63 I learned leaning on the Lord is what I need to do, He is my all and all, I can do nothing without Him, I know when it is my time I will go through that heavenly gate to be with my Lord and Father, Dear sister my prayers will be with you, God will give all you need, He gives me His strength as He does all His children only if we ask, In His Heavenly Name I pray for all that our in this blog, may the Lord bless all, do enjoy this God filled weekend, peace, love and joy, juanita your sister in Christ,\nThank you Juanita so much for sharing. You've touched my heart. Thank you, also, for the prayers. Living a Christian life is a very difficult life. It can be very painful to let God mould and change us; but looking back on the life I had before, even though I thought I was happy, I wasn't. I don't ever want to live without God in my life again. The enemy keeps trying, and I keep fighting. Thank God for His strength, because I couldn't do it alone. Many blessings to you. HUGS\nAwesome blog. I love you my wonderful sister in Christ. And like I have said before...what would I ever do without you in my life? <3\nThank you Cindi. People keep telling me these things and I feel so humble. I feel like it's you guys that are blessing me more. I love you too dear sister. Many blessings to you. BIGGGGG HUGZZZZZZZZZzzzzz\nRavyna June 09, 2012\nSo true that we are called to spread the good news of Jesus, and make disciples. I am working on journaling on what I want my life to be like 5 years from now. I want it to be filled with teaching my grandchildren about Jesus. I want to lead them to Him and teach them about His love and His death for their sins. And teach them to tell others about it also. Blessings to you.\nThank you for sharing Ravyna. You have wonderful goals. Writing them down is a very good thing. I've been wanting to do that myself and I keep putting it off with the excuse that I'm too busy. Maybe it's time I stop talking about it and do it. Thanks for the inspiration. Many blessings to you. HUGS.\nCORINNAHONEY June 11, 2012\nWay to go Carly. Keep telling it like it is\nWoo Hoo. Hugs. Great!\nThank you so very much for the great feed back. It helps to keep me inspired. Many blessings to you. HUGS.\nMAGGIMAY88 June 11, 2012\nCarley...\nI always enjoy everything you write. You are such a blessing.\nThank you so very much for the great feed back. It helps to keep me motivated. Many blessings to you. HUGS.\nPOETLKNG2LOSE June 11, 2012\nI totally feel like that now. i am completely under qualified for anything out there. Someone else i know thinks he is over qualified. There is no happy medium; only God accepts us as we are.\nSometimes i don't even like myself as I am.\nThank you for reading, and thanks so very much for the feedback and for sharing about yourself. God loves you just the way you are. He does want more for you though. We just have to listen for His voice. It's hard sometimes to know for sure if it's His voice or our own or the enemy. But in the quiet still moments, I can usually tell that it's him. I've just read a book by Joyce Meyer called \"How to Hear from God\". It's great. There's a lot of insight and advice in there. Many blessings to you, and remember God loves you and so do I. HUGS.\nGOD is working through you in an amazing way! Your gift is encouraging and uplifting. The Holy Spirit shines brightly in your words and I pray you continue to touch lives through your trials and the grace GOD gives you!\nGOD never chooses the person that in their own strength can do the job well because they would boast of their own abilities but it is the person that is not qualified that he chooses so the glory is GOD's!\nVery grateful GOD directed me to your blogs!\nThank you so much. I am so often humbled by the response that I get from my readers. God is using you to help me as well. Being humbled is a wonderful thing. I am thankful to God for you. Many blessings to you. I invite you to sign up to follow my blog, if you haven't already. HUGS.",

        "raw_content": "Drafting on day Three\nToday, a former UNCG student named Katie visited us (through Sykpe). She told of her desire to see the world to gain perspective, her experience at UNCG and her path leading to writing short stories. After reading one of her stories about a girl with the chicken pox and the happiness she felt due to the attention she gain from her worried parents, students started asking question about why would anyone be happy about being sick. It is the reason to be noticed, to feel that someone, especially your parents, actually cares for you. When you are sick, they do what they can to make you feel well again, as well as giving treats and the attention to ensure your health will return. To me, the girl from the story just wants to spend time with her parents, to see the true faces of their love for her. On the other hand, she is greedy and enjoys her parents waiting on her hand and foot. As for the students\u2019 process in their books, they are doing very well. Some have drawn pictures for their illustrations, some are asking teachers for advice or just telling them their stories so far. One kid is researching his favorite author, J.K. Rowling, for information and inspiration. You already hear the voices as they type each word, from time travel to shrinking suns, from adventurous pirates to a day on the beach. These stories are coming to life.",

The three huge dish antennae of NASA's Deep Space Network in California, Australia and Spain will precisely track InSight's position via the X-band radio signals.\nHP3 will take Mars' temperature as it burrows down almost 16 feet below the surface - deeper than any previous arms, scoops, drills or probes before it.\n\"The InSight mission will provide glimpses into the evolutionary processes of all of the rocky planets in the inner solar system\", according to the website.\nInstruments onboard the lander include the Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure (SEIS) provided by the French Space Agency and the Heat Flow and Physical Properties Package (HP3) provided by the German Space Agency. The launching location will be Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.\n\"It's a lander, not a rover, and it will deploy a variety of instruments down onto the ground\".\nInSight with its solar panels open\nAlso, since the early history of the Earth's formation is impossible to determine due to the massive changes that occurred during the time, NASA hopes that by studying Mars, which formed similarly to the Earth, they will learn something about our own planet's formation.\nLanding on Mars with a spacecraft that's not much bigger than a couple of office desks is \"a hugely hard task, and every time we do it, we're on pins and needles\", Banerdt said.\nIn that instance, both satellites were able to manoeuvre themselves to their intended orbits, but NASA will not have quite the same flexibility with a spacecraft bound for Mars.\nIn addition to being outfitted with next-generation instrumentation, InSight also features a larger solar array, updated electronics and better - color, not black-and-white - cameras.\n\"The major aspect to MarCO is that it is truly a technology demonstration and high-risk endeavor, very much in the spirit of NASA\", Klesh says.\n-European mission is dedicated to studying the innards of Mars, with a robotic geologist digging 15 feet into the Martian soil. It's the first planetary mission to launch from the edge of the Pacific. Until now, the hundreds of CubeSats have been confined to Earth orbit. Within two hours of launch, the spacecraft should make its first call home, the earliest confirmation scientists will have that the probe survived the rigours of launch.

        "raw_content": "Because we\u2019re a site focused on examining the many regions of the world objectively, it\u2019s a fun day when we get to expound upon a place as culturally rich and unique as India. We\u2019re going to talk about more than just which continent it\u2019s located in (while providing a few helpful maps, of course) and will also take a look at the important place this country has on the world\u2019s stage, and the critical importance it\u2019s held throughout the history of human civilization.\nHave you ever been to India? Do you plan to travel there? Are you simply looking for more information on this particular part of the world? No matter your reasoning, our cursory overview of the country will hopefully help to pique that interest, and also teach you a bit about the geographic significance of it, on the particular continent it\u2019s located in.\nAnd because that question is particularly easy to answer, we can get it out of the way immediately\u2014India is located in the Asian continent. Not only that, but it\u2019s one of the most heavily populated places in the Asian continent, and has one of the higher population-per-area ratios of anywhere in the world. This is something of a double-edged sword, which you\u2019ll see as we examine the history of India\u2019s economy and the ways that it\u2019s immensely successful. Financial and prosperity inequality is a huge talking point on this particular issue.\nThe \u201cpresent day\u201d isn\u2019t the only thing we\u2019re interested in examining, after all.\nWe\u2019ve written somewhat extensively about the continent of Asia before, and in doing so, have elaborated upon two important facts\u2014Asia is the largest continent in terms of sheer landmass, and it\u2019s also the largest continent in terms of total population. How large? Think over 4.3 billion people, large. Maybe it shouldn\u2019t be a surprise that it\u2019s the largest in both of these respects, but there\u2019s still interesting information to be gleaned from examining the \u2018why\u2019 of it all. After all, a great deal of Asia isn\u2019t densely populated, which means that the major, metropolitan population centers are positively packed with citizens of respective countries.\nIndia holds an interesting place in this conversation, for two reasons. Firstly, the country may very well surpass China in terms of population, within the next several decades. Secondly, it\u2019s home to far more diverse regions than most people know, which has resulted in a very centralized population spread. You\u2019ll see what we mean upon examining the major population centers of the country, as well as our closer look at the landmarks and regions that can be found within the country, as well as bordering it.\nThere are regions of India that we\u2019re going to examine due to their being unique and of considerable importance to the country, but first, let\u2019s take a look at the Indian Ocean. Obviously, this huge expanse of Earth\u2019s oceans is named after the country that it borders\u2014and India has a rather large peninsula that extends right into it.\nHistory is what denotes the importance of the Indian Ocean, and its relation to the country that is its namesake. It\u2019s the third-largest of the world\u2019s oceans, but in terms of plate tectonics and geological history, it\u2019s technically the youngest. However, the Indian Ocean is responsible for facilitating an immense amount of international trade, dating back up to nearly 8000 years ago. It\u2019s this trade potential that brought India a great deal of its early prosperity. It also helped to compound the problems related to British colonialism, but that\u2019s a subject requiring its own individual study. For now, it suffices to say that the Indian Ocean has been of immense importance to the development of civilizations and cultures within the country of India.\nIndia\u2014the Country\nWe\u2019ve established where India can be found on the Asian continent (and have included a few maps for your reference, thus far throughout the article.) However, there\u2019s more interesting information to be found than simply where India is. The country is positively brimming with beauty, culture, and both historical and economical significance. It\u2019s the second most heavily populated country in the world and is expected to become the most heavily populated within a few decades of continuing population trends.\nIt has a booming technological infrastructure, that is setting the precedent for the rest of the world, at times. But we\u2019ll expound upon this, and more, as we continue to explore\nRegions & Landmarks\nIndia tends to be recognized for its economy and population centers more than many other things, but the country is home to unique regions, biomes, and landmarks in plenty. Chief among them, perhaps, is the Himalayan Mountain Range. It extends along the northern border of India, but extends into four other countries, apart from that\u2014namely China, Pakistan, Bhutan, and Nepal. The Himalayas are home to Mount Everest, the tallest mountain peak on the planet.\nIt\u2019s not the only significant region or landmark that can be found in the country, either. The Ganges Plain is an exceptionally fertile region to the south of the Himalayas and is responsible for a great deal of India\u2019s agricultural potential. The Great Indian Desert occupies the western area of the country, making it quite arid. Somewhat ironically, the eastern regions of India receive some of the heaviest precipitation that can be found on the Asian continent, at least during the Monsoon months.\nThe numbers alone are an interesting subject, for sure. We\u2019ve talked briefly about the population of India above, but it\u2019s worth delving more deeply into what these numbers mean for the country\u2014its past, present, and future.\nFirst, let\u2019s compare the approximate populations of China and India, the two most heavily-populated countries on the most heavily populated continent our planet has:\nChina: 1,387,160,000 people\nIndia: 1,299,499,000 people\nBoth of these are approximations for 2015 based on previous years\u2019 census data, but they\u2019re relatively accurate to one another. The reason for this comparison is something that we also briefly touched upon\u2014these countries are extremely close in terms of population numbers, but India is growing far faster than China, at current rates. Within the next handful of decades, it\u2019s fully expected to surpass it, if the current trends continue.\nThe demographics of India\u2019s population are interesting, too. The vast majority of India\u2019s population is Hindu, making it the country with the greatest Hindu population in the world. This accounts for about 79% of the population, while the second greatest number is attributed to the Muslim population\u2014about 14% of the population. Other religious demographics include Sikhs, Buddhists, Christians, and others, each ranking at 2% or less of the total Indian population.\nAnd where do they all live? Of course, the actual population is spread out across the entirety of India, but it has huge population centers that contain significant percentages of the country\u2019s sum total of citizens.\nMumbai: 12,442,373 people\nDelhi: 11,034,555 people\nBangalore: 8,443,675 people\nHyderabad: 6,731,790 people\nAhmedabad: 5,577,940 people\nChennai: 4,646,732 people\nKolkata: 4,496,694 people\nSurat: 4,467,797 people\nPune: 3,124458 people\nJaipur: 3,046,163 people\nLucknow: 2,817,105 people\nKanpur: 2,765,348 people\nNagpur: 2,405,665 people\nVisakhapatnam: 2,035,922 people\nIndore: 1,960,631 people\nThane: 1,818,872 people\nBhopal: 1,798,218 people\nPimpri-Chinchwad: 1,729,359 people\nPatna: 1,683,200 people\nVadodara: 1,666,703 people\nAnd these are only the twenty most populous cities in the country! You\u2019ll see that even number twenty on this list contains more than 1.5 million people, and you\u2019d have to keep moving down those city rankings, reaching number forty-six before you\u2019d start to drop below a population of 1 million.\nWhat does this tell us about the country\u2019s population? Mostly, that it\u2019s not just growing in the most densely populated regions. Even though Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore are significantly larger than other cities found in India, the overall population is high across the entire country.\nAnd with that swelling population has come a peaking and at times tumultuous economy. Its growth has been uneven, and though the ruling government of the country has remained stable, many of the policies and legislature having to do with trade fluctuate, bend, and flex in ways that can make economic issues volatile.\nIn spite of any unpredictability, however, India\u2019s economy has been steadily growing by more than five percent for each of the past five years. Considering some of the country\u2019s problems with economic inequality among its citizens, this is a somewhat surprising trend. It points to the strengths of India\u2019s import/export market, as well as the areas that it has always succeeded in, economically\u2014textiles, precious gems, and more recently, engineering products.\nWe hope that this cursory overview of India has been informative and helpful. Though the premise of the topic was simple\u2014which continent is India located in?\u2014there\u2019s far more to be gleaned from better understanding some of the defining features of this country, its people, and the history of the region it\u2019s located in. India is an extremely prominent part of the Asian continent, as we\u2019ve established. It\u2019s the second most populated country in the world, and within the next couple of decades, continuing population climbs will position it as the most populated, even above China!

        "raw_content": "Read more about what \u2018customer support\u2019 implies in the hosting world and about the several support forms.\nThe customer support that you can receive from your shared hosting supplier is very important, regardless of whether you have pre-sales questions and you are not a client yet, or you've got some technical issue with a current account. Prompt and accurate information regarding a question or a problem can save you a lot of time and efforts, not mentioning that this is generally a proof that you're ordering from a genuine website hosting supplier and not from a reseller. If you acquire a hosting account via a company that doesn't own its servers and it can't access them right away, it's quite possible that you will wait for a day or two to have a reply to any question, thus your websites may remain offline for ages. However, a company that provides various ways of communication and has a technical support staff available any time can assist you right away and help you reduce or entirely avoid any kind of downtime and possible losses.\nWe acknowledge the importance of receiving assistance in a timely manner, that's why our shared hosting services feature 24/7 support as well as various means of communication. In case you don't have an account yet, you can easily call us or take advantage of our live chat and chat with a live representative, to learn more about our services or check if our servers meet the system requirements for your web sites. In this way, you'll never end up buying a service which you can't use effectively. In case you already have your account with us, you can also open a support ticket from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel when the issue is entirely technical or it requires additional analysis. In contrast to the majority of providers out there, we respond to all of the tickets within one hour, so you won't have to wait for a whole day. Our support services can be used day and night, even during public holidays.\nWhatever the semi-dedicated server that you choose, you are able to benefit from our 24/7 tech support services even on public holidays. Your websites will be available all of the time and so will we. With a lot of communication options, you'll be able to select the most convenient method to contact us and find out about our services in case you don't have an account yet, or ask for support if you are already among our customers. You will be able to call us, start a chat with a live representative, send an e-mail message or open a support ticket from the Help section of your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. The previous two options have a one-hour response time warranty, though it rarely takes over 20 mins to get assistance regardless of the nature of the issue. With our customer and tech support services, we are there for you when you need us, not a couple of days afterwards.\nWith our VPS, you will not ever need to wait for more than an hour in order to get assistance for any type of difficulty that you could encounter with the server or the software that comes pre-installed with it. We guarantee this short answer time for all of the support tickets that you open from your billing Control Panel or emails which you send to our tech support team. In addition, we have local telephone numbers in a number of countries globally and a live chat service where we can help you with pre-sales, billing and common questions. Customer and tech support is available 24/7/365 via the numerous means of communication, so no matter what your question or issue is, there'll always be someone to assist you without delay. When you need assistance with third-party software, which you cannot set up or which gives you troubles, you'll be able to benefit from the Managed Services upgrade package that we supply for all VPS plans.\nWith a one-hour max response time warranty, you will benefit from quick support when you obtain a dedicated server from our company. Our customer and technical support teams are online 24/7/365, therefore any time you open a ticket through your billing account or you send an email message related to any kind of problem with your server or the pre-installed software on it whatever the time of the day, you'll receive a reply within one hour, even during holidays. Our ticketing system is the perfect option when the matter in question needs more time to be solved or in case it needs to be forwarded to our admins, since it's easier to track the communication sent on both sides. For common, sales and billing issues/inquiries, you're able to phone us or talk to a live representative employing our chat service. If you add the Managed Services upgrade to the server plan, our administrators will also assist you with third-party software installation and troubleshooting and just like the basic support, this service is available 24/7 too.",

        "title": "Questions To Ask Before Getting A Settlement Loan | BLPC AB Personal Injury Lawyer",
        "raw_content": "Anyone that has filed a personal injury claim must meet a long list of financial obligations. That claimant needs to cover the expenses that have arisen, as a result of the claimant\u2019s treatment and recovery. Those expenses represent the cost of medicine, transportation, therapists and help with housekeeping or lawn care.\nStill, no accident can make money while undergoing a treatment program. For that reason, some victims find it hard to make ends meet, while striving to recover. This article offers an overview of one possible solution to that specific problem.\nWould a settlement loan help?\nA settlement loan provides an accident victim with a way to take out a loan, while using the money from the injury settlement as collateral. In other words, the claimant borrows against the expected award money. Of course, as is true with all loans, the lender that has promised a settlement loan expects to get interest, along with the payback of the borrowed funds. The loan\u2019s features highlight the questions that should be asked by anyone has filed a personal injury claim.\nThe interest rate is quite high. It could be as high as 25%. Hence, someone that has filed an injury claim should ask this: Can I handle the payments on a loan with such a high interest rate?\nThe interest would be an added expense. Is there some way that I could cover my existing expenses without taking out a loan?\nAre there other funds available? Can someone else bring in the income that the injured party used to bring home?\nIf the answers to those questions make it obvious that borrowed money would be the best solution then this is the next question: How to select a suitable lender?\n\u2022 Speak with any friends or relatives that have taken out a settlement loan in the past.\n\u2022 Speak with a personal injury lawyer in Camrose and find out if that professional has any suggestions.\n\u2022 Go online and study any website that summarizes the services of a lending company. Are there any testimonies from previous clients on that same website?\n\u2022 Prepare a list of questions to ask a potential lender.\nPerhaps the effort to find a lender will aid discovery of information that throws more light on loans offered to those with personal injury claims. That added information might make the same loans seem like a good solution. Alternatively, it could make utilization of such loans appear rather foolish.\nIn either case, the claimant that is hard-pressed to cover his or her expenses will acquire helpful details, regarding how to live, while awaiting an expected compensation. Consequently, the task of deciding whether or not to take out a settlement loan should become a bit easier to handle.",

This both excited and terrified me, because while I am excited to be finished with essays, readings and exams I can\u2019t help but feel that I am not ready for the real world.\nI can still remember my first official day here at UL. I was in kind of a fluster with trying to find rooms and figure out my timetable and I don\u2019t think I really managed to feel the excitement and the nerves that someone generally feels on their first day at university. However, apart from being a bit frazzled I was also immediately taken with the campus and all its features such as the Brown Thomas statue. As the week went on with classes and introductions I knew that I was going to really enjoy my time here.\nAs for my final year, what can I say except oh wow. I\u2019ve made it. Through exams, co-op and Erasmus, I\u2019m here. Every year since I began I always felt like things were starting to get serious which they were but they weren\u2019t quite as serious as they are now. This is the year that will decide the rest of my life which is a terrifying thought and quite an extraordinary one. The realisation that this time next year I will no longer be a UL student but an adult living and working in the big wide world is difficult to process. To think that I won\u2019t get lunch with my friends in Paddocks or go to International\u2019s Night on a Friday or have a lecture in the labyrinth that is the main building, is really quite a shock to the system. It will hit me even harder when it finally happens and I know that while I\u2019ll be relieved that its over I will miss it dearly.\nAs for the future, well I hope to do incredible things. I want to travel, establish a career, fall in love, and generally just continue to create myself as I have been doing for the past three years. I hope to be successful in as many aspects of life as I possibly can. Right now, I may not feel ready for it but I\u2019m just going to take it one day at a time.\nTagged 4th year, final year, Roisin O'Donoghue\nThe Big Bad Post Grad: first day worries",

        "raw_content": "Interzone 216 \u2013 the Mundane issue\nFirst, apologies for the late posting of this review, but I didn't notice that my subscription had run out\u2026 This is a special issue of the British SFF magazine, which as well as including the usual news and reviews, focuses on \"Mundane SF\". For the benefit of those who haven't been keeping up, this is the new term for SF which remains within (or close to) the boundaries of known science. So, no FTL starships, matter transmitters, time travel, alternate worlds, aliens or psionic powers. That's most of SF disposed of, then.\nOf course, stories using such a restricted palette have always formed a strand of SF, including classics such as Wells' The War in the Air, Orwell's 1984 or Brunner's Stand on Zanzibar. What has drawn recent attention is the claim of its proponents (notably Geoff Ryman, who features in this issue) that Mundane is intended to make SF \"the best it can be\". Sorry, but I don't buy that. Any viewpoint which regards as second-rate the themes of the vast majority of SF, including most of the works esteemed as among the best in the genre, is somewhat skewed, to put it mildly. An analogy has popped into my mind, prompted by the fact that the Olympics are almost upon us. Mundane is rather like the walking races; the athletes are effectively hobbled, and although they can produce some impressive performances within their artificial rules, they will all be blown away by those free to run. It also might help if they chose a better name: one of the definitions of \"mundane\" in my dictionary is \"ordinary: dull: banal\".\nAnd so to the stories, which are all supposed to comply with the Mundane rules.\nHow to Make Paper Aeroplanes by Lavie Tidhar: A collection of brief items of information, narrative sections and conversation, all building up a picture of some westerners working in a remote group of tropical islands, apparently in the present day. Quite cleverly done in establishing an atmosphere, but not a lot happens and I can't see why this is categorised as SF at all.\nEndra \u2013 from Memory by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro: A more traditional tale, concerning the relationship between a harbourmaster and an exotic female sea captain who occasionally visits. The milieu features a general background of cities lost to rising sea levels, sailing craft with wind-powered generators for auxiliary power, and with most people's horizons being very limited. It is not clear whether this is set in our future or on an alternate world or even another planet altogether, as none of the place names or languages mentioned is familiar. Again, quite strong on atmosphere, but it has more of the feel of fantasy.\nThe Hour is Getting Late by Billie Aul: Definitely in our future now, with a re-enactment of the Woodstock pop festival run both live and as a virtual-reality experience, with presenters mixing the two with film of the original event for transmission to a world-wide audience. The plot concerns the will-they-won't-they interaction between a formerly married couple, one of them performing, the other editing and mixing the VR transmission. A look at some possible social consequences of our developing technology.\nRemote Control by R R Angell: An intriguing and uncomfortably believable premise: the southern border of the USA is guarded by a string of unmanned watchtowers, each carrying sensors and remotely-controlled guns. For a fee, any US citizen can spend time controlling a turret over the internet, watching out for illegal immigrants and shooting any they see. As well as saving the staff needed for monitoring, this is so popular that it funds the whole exercise. I can almost see that happening\u2026Almost my favourite, but pipped at the post by the next one.\nThe Invisibles by Elisabeth Vonarburg: definitely into familiar SF territory here, in a future in which humanity lives in cities within sealed, protected bubbles. There are various zones for different purposes, linked by public transport running through tunnels. Two separate individuals make routine journeys only to discover that they end up in entirely different and unknown places, and they subsequently find that their world is not quite what it seemed. My pick of the collection, and the only one I might feel prompted to re-read.\nInto the Night by Anil Menon: an elderly, recently-widowed Indian travels across a future world to spend his remaining time with his daughter. The story is about cultural displacement, in the clash between the father's traditional beliefs and the social effects of the advanced communications technology that his daughter and friends constantly deploy.\nTalk is Cheap by Geoff Ryman: yet another rather elderly recently-widowed (it appears) man, whose job is monitoring the environment of a fragile future ecosystem, and who tries to establish a relationship with a woman from a very different background. Advanced communications also feature, but there is a more optimistic ending than in the previous sad tale.\nIt should be clear by now that if there is a linking factor, is that these tales are mostly concerned with relationships and atmosphere rather than plot. They are not bad by any means and I enjoyed reading them, but I wouldn't want my SFnal diet restricted to this fare for more than a minority of the time.",

        "raw_content": "3 Ways To Protect WhatsApp Messages From Hacking\nKeeping WhatsApp Locked\nThe Two Factor Authentication\nThere are no doubts about it \u2013 a few moments of oblivion and the misbelief that it will never happen to you will turn you into a vulnerable target for hackers.\nWhen it comes to WhatsApp, every hacker dreams about kicking it. After all, this is the most popular messaging application out there.\nIn fact, it threatens to take over the traditional messaging service coming with smartphones too. So, how do you protect your WhatsApp messages from hacking?\nMost of these so called hacks are not actual hacks. You are less likely to be targeted by a professional hacker who can go into your account from 5,000 miles away. Instead, they are just pure mistakes.\nKeeping WhatsApp locked is a must, as its security is definitely far from being the best. Unfortunately, the application does not have this feature yet.\nFortunately, you can use third party applications to lock certain programs. From this point of view, you can also block WhatsApp.\nWhether you lose your phone, leave it at work or hand it over to someone with bad intentions, having WhatsApp locked will prevent a series of issues. This article will tell you how to hack whatsapp messages by using app\nWhatsApp has implemented a web version, so you can now chat using your laptop or desktop.\nIn order to take advantage of this new feature, users often overlook the safety and security. Most newbies make the mistake of leaving WhatsApp Web open even when they are not using it.\nMake a habit to close it by logging out whenever you do not use it. Going on a lunch break at work? Log out. Do not assume that no one will come to your computer anyway. How can you tell?\nOn a positive note, WhatsApp will send you a notification whenever the account is connected to the web version.\nThe two factor authentication does not have too much to do with the actual authentication. In fact, it is a verification.\nWhat does it do? Simple!\nYou set a PIN code, as well as an email address. If someone tries to take your account over by having access to your phone for a few seconds, they will need the PIN code. Simply put, no one can do anything without it.\nTo enable this feature, go to the settings menu, choose the account settings and you will find the two step verification there.\nThe email address does not have too much to do with security. You will not get any emails if someone attempts anything. Instead, you can use the address to recover your PIN code or change it in case you forget it.\nIn the end, little extra security for WhatsApp can prevent some of the easiest hacking options out there.\nWhile often referred to as hacking methods, they are nothing but some tricks used by people around you to gain access to your messages. With this idea in mind, be careful who you hand your phone to and who you allow to use it.\u200b",

Much like Barcelona is I Spain. However, tensions between the two gravely came to a head in 1991-\u201992: the South Ossetia war began. Many ceasefires and negotiations followed. There was a somewhat volatile peace. But it was peace none the less.\nFast forward o 2008. This volatile peace could ne held no more. War broke out between Georgia and South Ossetian seperatists. Here is where Georgia ultimately lost \u2018the five day war\u2019. As Russia had formally recognised South Ossetia independence, Russia flexed her military muscle and took the side of the seperatists. Now, if you look at the geographical layout of South Ossetia, it borders Russia. Did Russia see this as a geopolitical strategic move? Possibly so. Russia at the end of the day has lost out on large amounts of the mother land due to the collapse of the Soviet Union.\nTen years on the Russo-Georgian war is being remembered. The first war of the 21st century. It has been a stark contrast between watching it on tv, from a New Zealand journalistic view point to that of being able to experience this flashpoint from a much closer proximity.

An auction conducted last month by the region\u2019s grid operator to meet demand in 2021 attracted more than enough power, and at the lowest prices since 2013, the article states.\nAdvocates for building new natural gas pipelines to serve New England have argued that the region needs more natural gas to prevent energy prices from increasing. The proposed pipelines have been shot down by state courts and agencies who oppose the notion of making ratepayers pay for pipeline construction costs, and yet electricity bills are decreasing rather than increasing.\n\u201cThe lower clearing price and surplus capacity are indicative of a market that works,\u201d Robert Ethier, vice president of market operations at ISO-New England, told the Press Herald.\nHomeowners can see this trend on their bills, according to the Press Herald. \u201cFor a typical home in southern Maine that uses 550 kilowatt-hours of electricity a month, the energy portion of the bill fell from $55 a decade ago to $36.30 last year,\u201d the article states.\nTo read the Portland Press Herald article, click here.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Welcome, Neighbor!\nDog, Kid, Training in General \u2192\nThe Empress and the Snake Bite (or \u201cturn it to Watercolors\u201d)\nThe other day my friend, The Empress, came to stay at my lake place with me. She should really be called the Queen, but that conjures up visions of cross-dressing men and The Empress is definitely not that. The Empress is 130 lbs of pretty woman with a figure like Jessica Rabbit and a giant head full of brunette hair that just never ends. The Empress has had four husbands up to bat and she\u2019s struck them all out of the ball park, the losers. She has a great job, a fantastic house and knows how to do anything. I mean anything. If I called her with a bullet wound, she would know exactly how to handle it so I didn\u2019t scar or at least fix it so I\u2019d get to get free liposuction out of the ordeal. She can get anything to grow, rescues little fluffy dogs and manages the church sales. The Empress has a beautiful house, a garage full of vintage cars, can assess a commercial property with a shrewd eye and still mix a perfect drink in kitten heels. I adore the Empress and aspire to her level of tough. She\u2019s my hero.\nWell, I thought she was a tough girl until the other night. We had been sitting around, tippling just a little, when we decided we were starving. The Empress was still in condition to drive, which I was not, which only goes to her tough nature. Halfway into town I spot a giant snake crossing the road. I yell out \u201cstop the car!\u201d, which illustrates my mother was right and women become vulgar when alcohol is involved and get loud. I really get loud but that might be another story. The Empress slams on the brakes and I jump out, wobbling down the road in a pair of \u201csittin\u2019 shoes\u201d. You know the kind. I was also wearing a dress that was probably better suited to the younger generation but it is sometimes hard for me to understand that I\u2019m not 25 anymore and the Golden Goose does a good job of hiding it from me. Now, in my mind, I was thinking that when the Goose and my son arrived late that night they\u2019d be proud of me for catching a snake. Don\u2019t know why I thought this, but that was my motivation and also why I was not driving. I\u2019ve dealt with lots of snakes and I really do know what I\u2019m doing on a normal day.\nThis evening, I was not at the top of my game. I did catch up with the snake, just as a truck pulled up in the other lane. The Empress yells out \u201cgirl, you\u2019re exposing your entire ladytown every time you bend over\u201d and proceeds to roll up her windows and look as if she is not there. Because she pointed this out in front of the truck full of men, I was offered two unmentionable acts accompanied by a six pack and received one insincere proposal of marriage. Of course, the snake bites down hard, which causes great glee to the audience and by the time the truck pulls away, I\u2019m just a silly woman in a great, if wrong, outfit, standing with a bloody finger in the middle of the road. A snakebite has a sobering affect on a girl and so I gently laid down the evil serpent and slunk back to the car. The Empress had locked the doors and the entire vehicle was vibrating with something that sounded suspiciously like Yanni. I\u2019m hollering at her to let me in and what the heck does she think she\u2019s doing and she\u2019s yelling back that when she\u2019s scared, she turns the radio to \u201cwatercolors\u201d and locks the doors. This apparently works for her and it might be a good strategy for all of us to keep in mind, but as I was outdoors at the time, I wasn\u2019t enjoying it. I finally convinced her to let me and take me right away to a big wine and an even bigger dinner, which I charged to the Goose, by the way, as I consider the entire incident his fault since I was only trying to be a good wife in the first place.\nI\u2019m thinking more clearly at this point and I like to make the best of any situation. The good thing I\u2019m taking away from this Springer episode gone wrong is that I may have worn something inappropriate, I may misjudged my wine consumption, I may have even exposed a little too much to some men from the sewer department, but, darn it, I was tougher that day than the Empress. In my book, that\u2019s a win.\n| Tagged best friends, funny, humor, snake, wine, women\n2 thoughts on \u201cThe Empress and the Snake Bite (or \u201cturn it to Watercolors\u201d)\u201d\nYOU are the toughest of them all, and I know the dress!\nI am laughing so hard I am surprised diet coke is not coming out of my nose. I live in Cumming and I am hoping to run into you and your antics on the street sometime soon.",

        "raw_content": "This blogpost is taking me longer than any blogpost I have ever written. My goal here is to be as simple and to the point as possible to understand the levels of frustration and share how they can manage in a second of a minute.\nI like to start with the definition of frustration: a feeling of anger or annoyance caused by being unable to do something (I would like to say we just do not accept the current moment) : the state of being frustrated by Merriam Webster Dictionary.\nThis feeling of anger or annoyance is because we want to change something, we do not observe, we judge, we do not accept. There is a definition that I learnt when I was a teen and it describes very clear what happens in us when we are frustrated. When we judge, we make an intellectual-emotional effort in the pursuit of changing what already is. This feeling starts to rule our way we behave and has an impact in our outcome.\nSo here is the recipe in how to manage frustration, as a recipe, you need to get right the ingredients to have a tasty successful outcome.\nWhen you observe what is driving you, you take your personal power again. It is important to observe what you really want and want you really are doing.\nTake action and move on. I know how painful can be when you have tried several times with no success but believe me, it will come, maybe no exactly how you expect it but it will because you are working towards your goals.\nOne of the tools you will need is to pay attention and decide what to think and feel. This is the most powerful tool you will have to accomplish any thing you want. It is more simple than you think.\nWhen you feel paying attention is not enough and you just cannot decide how to think and how to do, then breath deeply at least 10 times.\nShake it, yes, shake it out. Drop it for a moment step out of the space where frustration is happening and come back with a new attitude. One tool that I learned when I was a kid it is to change the energy, this energy can be manipulated, and we all have the power to do so.\nThese are 2 simple but very effective tips and tools in how to overcome frustration. How to manage frustration when it is happening in the moment when you can feel, physical and/or emotional pain.\nHow do you manage your frustration?",

        "raw_content": "110 Witton Street, Northwich, Cheshire, CW9 5AB\nPurpose built in 1914, as the town\u2019s main post office, this pub takes its name from the world\u2019s first-ever adhesive postage stamp. When built, it was the town\u2019s \u2018largest liftable building\u2019. \u2018Liftable\u2019 or timber-framed structures have been used in Northwich so that they can be jacked back into position, following subsidence.\nPrints, illustrations and text about the Penny Post.\nThe text reads: The building housing this J D Wetherspoon pub was formerly occupied by Northwich\u2019s post office.\nThe Royal Mail was established in 1635. Over two centuries later, the modern postal system began with the Penny Post, instituted by Rowland Hill in 1840.\nBefore then, the cost of sending a letter was paid for by the receiver, and varied according to the number of sheets and the distance. The minimum charge was 4d (1.5p). Even after Hill\u2019s reforms, individual households were not guaranteed delivery.\nRowland Hill was born in Kidderminster in 1795. He became a teacher, and in his thirties helped found the Society for Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. He published his book Post Office Reform in 1837, and a Parliamentary committee adopted his ideas.\nThe use of adhesive stamps to show payment had first been suggested by a Dundee man, James Chalmers. Hill adopted the idea, and introduced the Penny Black and Twopenny Blue, becoming known as \u2018the father of the modern postal system\u2019.\n\u2018Roadside receivers\u2019, as pillar boxes were first called, were introduced in 1852. They were the idea of the Victorian novelist Anthony Trollope, who worked for some years as an inspector of postal services.\nTop: Rowland Hill\nAbove: left, Anthony Trollope, right, Penny Post Jubilee\nLeft: The first pillar box\nRight: James Chalmers.\nPrints, an illustration and text about the salt tax.\nThe text reads: Through the ages salt has been essential for preserving food, and since the days and the Romans it has also been a target for taxation.\nThe Domesday Book of 1086 recorded the salt taxes due to Hugh Lupus, Lord of the Manor of Northwich. Later, one cause of the French Revolution was the high rate of the \u2018gabelle\u2019, or salt tax. At that time the tax of salt here was some thirty times the cost of production.\nMore recently, an important part of Gandhi\u2019s campaign of civil disobedience, which led to Indian independence, involved the flouting of the British salt monopoly.\nThe salt tax was paid on production. Small firms could not afford to tie up so much capital, and the trade became monopolised by a few large businesses. The latter supported the tax, but it was finally repealed in 1825.\nTop: The Exciseman\nAbove: top, HJ Falk, director of the Salt Union.\nThe text reads: Born in Liverpool in 1842, John Brunner rose from being a clerk in a shipping company to being joint head of one of Britain\u2019s industrial giants. His company, Brunner Mond, was a founding partner in the formation of ICI in 1926.\nHe met his business partner, Ludwig Mond, at John Hutchinson\u2019s soda ash plant in Widnes. Demand for soda alkali from soap, glass and textile manufacturer could no longer be satisfied using traditional processes. Brunner and Mond set up a plant at Winnington in 1873, using a new method or production requiring brine and limestone. In two years the company was in profit, and its success soon left Brunner free to pursue his political and social interests.\nHe became the first MP for Northwich\u2019s reorganised constituency in 1885, having defeated Robert Verdin, \u2018the Salt King\u2019, for the Liberal candidacy. Brunner went on to represent Northwich for over 20 years. From the beginning, he pressed for subsidence compensation, in spite of its adverse effects on his business interests. A Brine Compensation Act was finally passed in 1891.\nBrunner presented Northwich with a Free Library in 1885, later rebuilding it after subsidence damage. He built a school at Winnington the following year, and provided regular scholarships for local children to attend the Grammar School. With Mond, Brunner set up Northwich\u2019s first Salt Museum in 1887. It was probably the first ever industrial museum. Created a Baronet in 1894, Brunner later refused a seat in the House of Lords.\nAbove: Directors of Brunner and Mond.\nA print and Sir John Brunner.",

        "title": "Why Renting Your Home Could Save You Money. - Army Wife With Daughters",
        "raw_content": "Why Renting Your Home Could Save You Money\nMany people choose to rent rather than buy their own home and this can be for many reasons. Perhaps work commitments such as working for the military means that you need to relocate on a frequent basis, or the huge upfront deposit may be currently achievable. Whatever the reasons, there are actually a number of benefits to renting a home rather than buying, especially during the current uncertain financial times.\nIn this post we\u2019ll discuss the pros and cons of renting your house.\nPros to renting your home\nRenting allows lots of flexibility, meaning that you have a choice of where you wish to live. When you want to move you can give your landlord notice and up sticks. This is a definite advantage if your career involves travel. You can literally move anywhere in the world without leaving a property behind which needs maintaining. If you find that the area you have moved to isn\u2019t to your liking or the neighbors are annoying \u2013 no problem, just move! If you\u2019re a military family you can easily get out of your lease early using the soldiers orders if needed.\nAs time progresses, different stages during your life mean that the size of your property requirements will change. For example a young couple may only need a small apartment or flat, whilst they save for the future. Families with children will require more space and an elderly couple may decide to downsize, once dependents have moved out. Renting facilitates this flexibility.\nIf you are renting for a short period it is normally cheaper than paying a mortgage. Mortgages have many associated costs, whereas renting a property often means that you won\u2019t need to pay hefty taxes and insurance bills. The whole process of buying your own is expensive, when you add up the costs involved in the purchase of your home.\nAs a renter you will not be liable for paying maintenance and repair bills. Owning your own home is a financial strain when you need to keep finding the cash for essential repairs. If your roof starts to leak as homeowner it\u2019s down to you to fix it. A tenant will just phone the landlord. The landlord is wholly responsible for repairs unless damage is caused by negligence by the tenant.\nFixed monthly rent\nThe rent on your property is likely to be fixed for a year or two and when the rent is increased the landlord is obliged to give their tenant plenty of notice, so that they can search for another property if they so wish. Mortgage payments however have the potential to fluctuate on a monthly basis, making budgeting very tricky.\nA home which reflects your personality\nRenting your own home allows you to live in a property which reflects your personality, you will also have the flexibility of renting in an area which offers the facilities you require. Military personnel will need to rent a property close to base or actually on the military base. Renting still allows you to make your house your home and you can individualize it to your taste. It is important to recognize a person\u2019s individuality, just the same as it\u2019s possible to create military custom morale patches highlighting your individual attitude, rank and combat awards, it is possible to make a rented home as individual as you and your family are.\nYou could choose a city apartment, country mansion or a villa with a pool. The choice is yours. You are also more likely to be able to afford to rent houses that would be out of your budget to buy.\nYou might also like: Moving With Less Stress and Less Hassle\nMost rental properties require a bond and a months rental amount upfront. You will also have fees related to credit searches. These costs do mount up, but they are nowhere near as much as the costs relating to buying a property. More often than not in today\u2019s climate you need at least 20% of the property price as a deposit to secure a property, which often takes a lot of years of careful saving.\nCons to renting your home\nOwning your own home brings stability, which is contrast to the flexibility that renting offers. As a homeowner you will quickly become part of your local community and you feel a sense of pride. Unfortunately renting means that your landlord could suddenly decide to sell up, leaving you with the only option of looking for another property. Tenants do have rights though and it\u2019s worth checking them out if you are left in a difficult situation. You should always be given reasonable notice to vacate a property. Most landlords like to have long-term tenants, who they can trust to pay on time and look after the properties condition.\nEventually if everything goes to plan a homeowner will own their property outright, once the mortgage is fully paid. Renters hand over their money to the landlord and are in essence paying off the landlords mortgage! Research has shown however that if you saved or invested the money that you haven\u2019t had to pay relating to maintenance costs, as a renter you would be considerably better off! You could probably save enough money to buy a house outright. You could also use the money to save for an early retirement.\nIn certain areas of the country the cost of rent for properties are extortionate! Rental properties that are high in quality can be hard to find, especially in popular areas. In the main renting is cheaper than owning a house, but this is very much dependent on where in the country you live. Supply and demand pushes landlords to increase prices. This situation could worsen as fewer people are able to get on the property ladder du to the large deposit needed.\nHaving to ask your landlord\u2019s permission to do anything to your rental property can be frustrating. Some landlords will not let you decorate or put up pictures and shelves without their permission. Owning a pet can be contentious too, as a lot of landlords will not allow pet ownership in their property. If this is the case it\u2019s worth asking if you can put down a larger bond, to cover any potential damage and offer to deep clean the property when you leave.\nThe decision to rent or buy is not an easy one. The unpredictability of the housing market means that the supply and demand of properties is hard to predict. Look at your lifestyle and try to make a decision based on your personal circumstances.\nYou might also like: How To Make Your New House Feel Like A Home",

        "raw_content": "Fire sale imminent? \u2014\nNext-gen Kindle Fire HD pictures surface with all-new design\nAmazon's content-pushing tablet \"may launch in the coming weeks\"\nThe folks over at BGR have gotten their hands on pictures of a device they claim is the next-generation Kindle Fire HD. Going by the images, the new Fire will sport a harder, more angular back, which the source claims is \"more comfortable\" than the current design. The new Fire HD will reportedly come in 7- and 8.9-inch sizes. The purported specs for the 7-inch model include a 1920\u00d71200 display; a 2GHz+ Snapdragon 800 CPU; 2GB of RAM; 16, 32, or 64GB of storage; and optional cellular data. The 8.9-inch model has similar specs, but with a whopping 2560\u00d71600 display and 8MP rear camera.\nThe buttons, which were difficult to locate on the previous model, have been redesigned, and the stereo speakers have been moved to the top of the device. Both Fires have lost some weight, too. These devices will reportedly run Amazon's forked version of Android 4.2.2, which omits the Play Store and all the other Google Apps for competing Amazon services.\nThere's no word yet on pricing, and launch timing is \"fuzzy\"\u2014the BGR source says that the 7-inch model \"may launch in the coming weeks,\" and the 8.9-inch version is due out sometime before the end of the year. If you're interested, there are more pictures over at BGR.",

        "raw_content": "Television was removed from our home over ten years ago. Psalms 101:3, \u201cI will set no wicked thing before mine eyes. . . .\u201d At that time the influences even \u201cokay\u201d shows brought into our home were often negative. Did the children treat their parents with respect? How did they interact with their siblings? What activities were they involved with? Those questions don\u2019t even take into consideration what children see on commercials or other programs that are not \u201cokay.\u201d\nSteve has been willing, as a dad, to invest time in his children\u2019s lives. He has given up the recreation he would pursue during his free time in order to be with his children. About eight years ago, when Nathan was fourteen and Christopher was twelve, Steve and the boys began to finish our basement. Could Steve have done the job faster by himself? Perhaps at first, but with a few months of teaching and training, the boys had learned many skills to make their help valuable. Not only did they learn much about construction in the process, but they also experienced wonderful, manly fellowship during those hours of working together. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, \u201cTwo are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up . . . and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.\u201d\nSteve has carried this policy on into car work and almost any other project or errand he does. He includes even the younger children in these activities. It would be much quicker to work alone, but he is doing more than a task. He is investing in the hearts and lives of his children. Turning the hearts of the children to their fathers and the hearts of the fathers to the children has continued to be one of our main goals in parenting children (Malachi 4:6). Proverbs 4:1-5, \u201cHear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding. For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law. For I was my father\u2019s son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother. He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live. Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.\u201d\nSteve also will take a child with him almost any time there is a meeting or activity to attend. When he had a breakfast with our state representative, Nathan went along as a teen. Steve has made our children a part of his life. Proverbs 5:1-2, \u201cMy son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.\u201d In addition to the fellowship that the children have experienced, they have been exposed to Steve\u2019s insight and teaching on many spiritual subjects in a setting much more public than our home.\nWe have encouraged our children to be busy with work and ministry rather than entertainment. \u201cIt is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth\u201d (Lamentations 3:27). Nathan and Christopher started a lawn mowing business when they were ages ten and twelve. They worked that business together until Nathan graduated from high school, whereupon Christopher continued it on his own for two more years. This work kept them profitably occupied. They worked hard in hot, uncomfortable circumstances. They learned to serve customers, to maintain their equipment, to cooperate with each other, and to manage a business.\nTo facilitate an appetite toward serving others, we include our children in ministry the Lord has given us. Steve and the six oldest children have ministered at the local county nursing home for seven years. Psalms 41:1 has been their ministry verse, \u201cBlessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.\u201d Also, James 1:27, \u201cPure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.\u201d They have a \u201cchurch service\u201d every other Saturday afternoon, collecting up the residents who are interested in attending, wheeling them into the day room, and ministering to them.\nOur children have helped with the homeschool group from the very beginning. One of them has always had the responsibility for the newsletter. They spend many hours preparing for the children\u2019s programs that go along with the couples\u2019 meetings. They also put on the spelling bee each year. Their hearts are being fed on the joy Jesus gives in serving Him and others, rather than self.\nNathan and Christopher each decided not to obtain a driver\u2019s license until there was a need for them to be driving. For them, this occurred around age eighteen when their work required them to have transportation. Not only did they save a considerable amount of money by not having to pay car insurance from the time they were sixteen, but also the lack of transportation may have kept them from opportunities of immorality that could have resulted in failure.\nWe also suggested the boys wait until the need presented itself before purchasing a car. This happened around the age of nineteen for them. Here again, they saved money by waiting and kept their focus on preparation for the future, rather than self-entertainment that can easily lead to a rebellious heart and attitude.\nSteve and I encouraged our children to consider courtship rather than dating. They decided this was a biblical way and have chosen not to date. Because of this, they have been spared from situations that can lead to rebellion and immorality. Their time, money, and hearts have gone to useful occupations such as work, ministry, and family activities rather than being drained by dating.\nBefore our children reached their teenage years, Steve and I decided it would be good to institute a \u201cdress policy\u201d for how the children were to dress whenever they were in public. We shared with them that, although God judges the heart, man looks on the outward appearance. While it may be true that we don\u2019t have rebellious hearts, if the way we dress is worldly, or faddish, it can appear to others that we are. 2 Corinthians 5:20, \u201cNow then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us. . . .\u201d We wanted them to see themselves as ambassadors for Christ and suggested they choose a \u201cclassic style\u201d of dress that would not cause others to assume they were rebellious when they were not.\nPrayer has been a key factor in our children\u2019s lives for avoiding rebellion. Steve and I could always have been more consistent and diligent in our prayer time for our children, but all through their lives we have called out to the Lord. We are asking for wisdom in raising them, for guidance in decisions we must make, for strength to stand by those decisions, and for Jesus to work in the lives of our children, molding and shaping their hearts for Him.\nAs we think and evaluate each of these areas that I have briefly discussed, there is so much more that could be said about them, but this is an overview. Some of these may not even seem to have anything to do with rebellion versus lack of rebellion. In the ones that are less obvious, we think the children have been protected from influences and temptations that could have caused their hearts to be turned toward rebellion rather than kept with their Lord and their family.\nWe believe our older children have been open to these choices because the Lord has enabled us to keep their hearts. Their focus has been on the Lord, work, ministry, preparation for their futures, and family, rather than peers and fun. Therefore, they are willing to listen to our counsel and look to Scripture for their guide.\nWe are not saying these children are perfect, anymore than Steve and I are perfect. We have discussions where we are on different sides of the fence. There are areas of need we see in their lives where we pray for the Lord to work. However, our relationship is sweet; we delight in our adult children, seeing them as blessings and friends. We have prayed for them, protected them, taught them, and counseled them. We now enjoy watching them as they learn to seek after the Lord with all their hearts.\nWe give all the credit to the Lord for the work He has done in these children\u2019s lives, for the decisions He has led our family to make, and for His faithfulness to us in spite of our failures. We want to encourage other families who may struggle with some of these choices, who may feel they are too difficult and who may wonder if their children will suffer if they make them, that it is worth the sacrifices. What the world offers our young people is empty and vain, but what the Lord offers is full of riches.\nAs we make some of these decisions or changes, it is imperative that our hearts as parents are soft and open toward our children. We must approach the change with the right attitude. We should offer our time and ourselves to our children in return for anything we are taking from them. Our children learn from us, even what we are not aware they are learning. If our focus is on ourselves, doing what we love and serving our interests, then they learn that too. If we want to direct their hearts toward the Lord, then it must be obvious by not only our words, but also our actions, that our hearts are toward the Lord.\nMay we, as parents, evaluate each area that comes up with our teens and be willing to seek the Lord on it. May we make the choices the Lord directs us in even though they may be unpopular or difficult. May we continually call out to the Lord in prayer for His grace, wisdom, and strength in raising up children, who are mighty in spirit, to serve Him.\nTagged: Can Teen Rebellion Be Avoided\nThe First Priority\nHave you ever wondered how Samson could turn out so poorly when he had seemingly great parents? How could this be? We see a father who desires to raise a child who is pleasing to God, and yet something goes wrong. When grown, this child will be a slave to immorality, which will lead to his being a slave grinding grain for the Philistines. Maybe there are a few morsels of wisdom we fathers can glean from this section of Scripture.\nAn angel appeared to Manoah\u2019s wife, Samson\u2019s mother. He gave her instructions on how she was to live and how Samson was to be set apart as a Nazirite. A Nazirite was someone who had such a great love for the Lord that he showed his devotion to God in a special way. Then, when Manoah was told about the angel\u2019s message, he prayed and asked God to send the angel back, \u201c. . . teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born\u201d (Judges 13:8).\nIn verse 9, we read that God hears Manoah\u2019s prayer and sends the angel back. When Manoah speaks to the angel in verse 12, he asks, \u201cHow shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him?\u201d What training should he receive and what will be his vocation? Good question, but the angel totally ignores it. Amazing! God sends the angel back as a result of Manoah\u2019s prayer, and then the angel doesn\u2019t answer his prayer. Or does he?\nWhat a disappointment! Here he wants to know about the boy, and God (via the angel) is telling Manoah about his and his wife\u2019s responsibility. We have another example of this in the third chapter of John. Nicodemus makes an opening comment to Jesus, but Jesus totally ignores the comments and speaks to him about what He wants Nicodemus to hear.\nThe angel begins and ends by saying Manoah\u2019s wife must do everything that she has been instructed to do. The overwhelming emphasis of the angel\u2019s message to the parents is\u2013obedience. Note that this is not the child\u2019s obedience, but the parents\u2019. Manoah was to see that his wife obeyed the word from God.\nAs fathers, just what is our highest priority? Is it our children\u2019s education, socialization, future vocation, or is it our own responsibilities? I believe God\u2019s Word teaches that a father\u2019s primary responsibility is to love the Lord more than anything or anyone else. \u201cJesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment\u201d (Matthew 22:37-38).\nThat means we are to be sure we are in fellowship with Him and living for Him. Our example of being sold-out to Christ is far more important than giving our children hours of instruction on how to live the Christian life. Loving our Lord, and walking in obedience to His Word, is our primary responsibility. I believe that is why the Lord instructed Manoah to be sure his wife did what the angel had told her to. Manoah was to be the leader of the home.\nSo why did Samson fail in achieving God\u2019s best for his life? Certainly, Samson\u2019s choices had a lot to do with it, but I wonder if it was avoidable. There are even hints in Scripture that the parents might have had outward conformity, but I wonder about their relationship with the Lord and Samson. Why do I say that?\nIn chapter fourteen Samson was interested in a Philistine woman, and he told his parents to get her for his wife. His father protested, but then proceeded to do what Samson wanted, even though Moses had told the Israelites not to intermarry. \u201cNeither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son. For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly\u201d (Deuteronomy 7:3-4). Here the father was more concerned that his son not be angry with him than about whether the Lord would be angry. He should have said, \u201cSon, I will die before I willingly do what is wrong.\u201d\nDon\u2019t be distracted by Judges 14:4 where it says the Lord was using this as an occasion to confront the Philistines. God will even use our sin for His purposes. He chose to use Samson\u2019s problem with lust and lack of obedience to his parents to fulfill his plan. That does not mean that there wasn\u2019t a better way if Samson had not had these problems.\nLook at Samson\u2019s response to his father. \u201c. . . Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well\u201d (Judges 14:3). We see that Samson did not love and respect his parents, or he would have said, \u201cFather, you are right. God would not be pleased if I was to marry her.\u201d\nDads, we need first of all to be concerned about our relationship with the Lord and pleasing Him. That begins in our hearts and is visible to those around us. It can\u2019t be mere outward conformity. It must be a walk that comes from a deep love of our Lord, not wanting to displease Him. When our relationship is right with Him, we will be able to win and retain the hearts of our children. If we have our children\u2019s hearts, then they will receive the concerns we share with them. They will be grieved when their path is straying from our example.\nIn verses 14:6 and 14:9, we are told Samson did something he shouldn\u2019t have as a Nazirite and chose not to tell his parents about it. Our children must feel the freedom, and need, to share with us their failures and wrong desires. How else can God use us in their lives? Samson\u2019s father neglected what was most important and lost his son. Dads, may we not fail in a similar way.",

        "raw_content": "Los Angeles Actos Litigation Attorneys\nWhat is Actos?\nActos (generic name pioglitazone hydrochloride) is a drug in the class of thiazolidinedione (TZDs) and extensively used for treating Type 2 diabetes. The drug was introduced in the US market by Takeda Pharmaceuticals in the late 1990s and soon became top selling product of the company. In 2008 it was one of the top selling drugs in US.\nHow Actos Works\nPatients suffering from Type 2 diabetes are not able to produce enough insulin required by their body to manage sugar levels of blood. Some patients become insulin resistant and their body cells are not sensitive to insulin. Actos is used for increasing sensitivity of body cells to insulin. Increased insulin sensitivity helps in controlling levels of sugar in blood and prevents it from rising at dangerous levels. The drug may be taken along with other medications for diabetes or alone. It is not used for Type 1 diabetes.\nAccording to warnings issued by FDA, drugs like Actos containing thiazolidinedione may trigger or worsen cardiac failure (heart attack) and other cardiac events in some patients. Chances of fluid retention and congestive heart failure also increase with the use of Pioglitazone present in the drug.\nIn June 2011, the FDA also issued a warning for Actos\u2019 link to bladder cancer. Due to the numerous reports from consumers taking Actos who had developed bladder cancer, the FDA conducted an investigation and their results were astounding. In an ongoing study of 193,000 people, the FDA discovered that those people with Type 2 Diabetes over the age of 40 who have taken Actos for over a year, are at a 40% higher risk for developing bladder cancer. Contact your doctor if you have taken Actos and developed bladder cancer, tumors, or have experienced any of the following symptoms:\nBack or lower abdominal pain\nOther than these serious side effects, patients using Actos may suffer from some common side effects. Muscle pain, tooth pain, gradual weight gain and symptoms of upper respiratory infections like running nose and sneezing are some of them. Clinical studies revealed that women using this drug were more prone to bone fractures.\nThe toxic side effects of Actos have impelled many affected patients or families of the deceased to file lawsuits for recovering compensation of the injuries. Such lawsuits can be filed against manufacturer as well as against healthcare service provider. In 2007, Takeda Pharmaceuticals was subjected to the first class action lawsuit for subjecting the users of this drug to potential increased risk of cardiac failure and similar cardiac events. If you have been injured by Actos contact a law firm that has experience in handling defective drug cases.",

        "raw_content": "WWE Diva Natalya Gives Total Divas Season 3 Spoilers, Talks Sting In WWE\nTurnbuckle Weekly With Chuck Carroll July 18, 2014 at 3:19 pm\nFiled Under:Chuck Carroll, Natalya, Pro Wrestling, Total Divas, Turnbuckle Weekly, WWE, WWE NXT\nNatalya (L) (Photo Credit: WWE)\nListen to the interview audio.\nRemember the days when women in pro wrestling were little more than arm candy? Yeah. They\u2019re gone.\nToday, women are holding their own inside the ring and earning the respect of even the most archaic-thinking fans.\nWWE is capitalizing on the success and popularity of the Divas division by showcasing their talents not only on Monday Night RAW, but on the reality show Total Divas that follows the women during the course of their everyday lives.\nAmong the most popular divas on the show is Natalya, who is a third-generation Superstar from what is arguably the most successful family to ever step inside the squared circle.\nShe is a product of the Hart family and a chip off her hall of fame uncle Bret\u2019s shoulder. Her other uncles were WWE Superstars as part of the famed Hart Foundation. And as if that isn\u2019t enough wrestling DNA to course through her veins, her father is Jim \u201cThe Anvil\u201d Neidhart.\nSince making her WWE debut in 2007, Natalya has not only filled their large shoes, she\u2019s surpassed all expectations, routinely outperformed her male counterparts and proved she\u2019s capable of standing on its own merits.\nHer recent match against Charlotte Flair \u2014 daughter of \u201cThe Nature Boy\u201d Ric Flair \u2014 received critical acclaim and has been mentioned as a potential Match of the Year candidate. The match, which was broadcast live as part of NXT Takover, broke the record for longest televised Divas bout in the 62-year history of the company.\nWith her in-ring ability and the success of Total Divas, Natalya has played a pivotal role in catapulting women\u2019s wrestling in WWE to a new level.\nI recently had the opportunity to speak with her as she prepared to tape a series of WWE NXT shows that will air in the near future.\nWe talked about the evolution of women\u2019s wrestling, the balancing act of going back and forth between the main WWE roster and its developmental program, the upcoming season of Total Divas, drunk-dialing Stephanie McMahon (her boss), and Sting finally coming to WWE.\nState of Women\u2019s Wrestling\nI think WWE Divas have evolved so much and that we\u2019re really growing in a lot of ways that I don\u2019t think anybody really expected. Part of our success really has had to do with the last year, especially with the launch of Total Divas. It has kind of taken everybody by storm and nobody expected Total Divas to be such a huge success. I feel like that\u2019s been huge for us. That\u2019s been major.\nThe Divas can do so much more than perform in the ring. We\u2019re ambassadors for WWE, we\u2019re role models\u2026 there\u2019s so much we can do.\nHer Match Against Charlotte Flair\n[To] go in the ring with Charlotte Flair, the daughter of Ric Flair, who is a two-time Hall of Famer, and be able to really show that women can have a 25-minute segment on TV and not only do great with it, but smoke it.\nI will toot my own horn, because I don\u2019t do that very often, but people are saying (that match) isn\u2019t just one of the best Divas matches this year, but it\u2019s up for match of the year in a lot of different categories. It was a great feeling to have a match so acclaimed.\nFor me it was about so much more than a championship. It was proving that we can have it all. We can have our cake and eat it too.\nJuggling Working on Main Roster and WWE NXT\nThe playing fields are equal. It makes me so happy to say that some of the best work I\u2019ve done in the WWE has been in NXT. In the last year I\u2019ve felt my character, my wrestling ability, my whole persona has changed from the work and growth I\u2019ve experienced at NXT\u2026 NXT is actually one of the most-watched shows\u2026 along with Total Divas.\nSometimes when people say \u201coh, you went down to NXT,\u201d I don\u2019t think it\u2019s down, it\u2019s up.\nSting Wrestling In WWE\nI think it\u2019s cool. When we saw the debut of the new video game, that Sting is part of (the video game WWE 2K15), it was awesome. It was like, \u2018oh my gosh.\u2019 Nobody ever thought you\u2019d see Sting in WWE and now you see him.\nI can say this from experience, especially growing up around WWE my entire life, I\u2019m one of those people that think Sting could possibly have another match in WWE. If I had my first pick of who he\u2019d wrestle, I would for sure say I\u2019d love to see him wrestle Undertaker. But, obviously, that would be for the future to tell. It\u2019s great having him back.\nDrunk Dialing Stephanie McMahon\nThank goodness I have an impeccable reputation! It\u2019s funny because at the time we\u2019re filming this reality show and sometimes things get a little wacky on the show\u2026\nNobody, including Steph, ever expected something like [that] to happen. It\u2019s something now that we laugh about. The lesson learned is don\u2019t ever go into \u201cBrie Mode\u201d (a.k.a. getting rip-roaring drunk)\u2026\nStephanie, despite the role that she plays on TV, she is one of the women that the Divas really look up to\u2026 I\u2019m so glad that Stephanie and I have moved past that and I will continue to try to make her proud.\nTotal Divas Season 3 Spoilers\nWe have a new cast member, Rosa Mendes. And then we have, obviously, Summer Rae, who was a new cast member from last season. Summer and I never really repaired our relationship from the past. It\u2019s something of course I want to work on. We\u2019ve got some issue there and we go back and revisit that.\nThere\u2019s a lot of story with myself and my husband, TJ. Everybody kind of gets to see that unfold. It\u2019s interesting to watch because you can\u2019t plan life, life just happens. We\u2019re in the middle of filming that right now. I\u2019m just having fun and the show is fun. Each season we pick up more and more momentum.\nSo, I think everybody\u2019s really excited about it. Natalya says she is proud to see two Divas matches are on the card for Sunday\u2019s WWE Battleground, including AJ Lee defending the Divas Championship against Paige.\nIn the Battleground main event, WWE Champion John Cena will defend his title in a Fatal 4-Way match against Kane, Randy Orton, and Roman Reigns.\nNew episodes of WWE NXT air Thursday night.",

        "raw_content": "OCT. 8: BATTLE PLAN\nJesus can sympathize with us. He\u2019s been in similar situations that we have, faced similar temptations, and felt similar heaviness of heart. \u201cFor we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect had been tempted as we are, yet without sin\u201d (Hebrews 4:15). When we read the account of His temptation in Matthew 4, we see some rich truths.\nWe failed in the garden and Jesus succeeded in the wilderness. The contexts couldn\u2019t be more different. The temptation of Adam and Eve in Genesis 3 was in the midst of a garden where they had everything they could ever need, including food, freedom with one another, and perfect fellowship with God. Jesus, on the other hand, was in a desolate wilderness with no food, an all-out assault on Him from His enemy, and no small amount of pressure to cave at any moment. One more piece of fruit in a full garden wasn\u2019t even that appealing, and yet we all, in Adam, fell for it. A warm loaf of bread for an empty stomach in an empty wilderness, however, was all but irresistible, and yet Christ brilliantly succeeded in denying it for Himself.\nJesus did it for us. We have to be careful how we interpret and apply this episode of Jesus\u2019 temptation. If we\u2019re not careful, we can use it only as an example and not as an actual act of substitution. He is much more than a perfect example for us here. He is our substitute \u2014 fulfilling the law and resisting every temptation for us, in our place. We couldn\u2019t resist even the smallest and lightest temptation, but Jesus would resist every single one, in every context, at every moment. He then takes His perfect righteousness and spreads it over us to cover us in a way fig leaves never could (Genesis 3:21, II Corinthians 5:21).\nWe battle against the enemy (and our own flesh) in a similar way. At the same time, we don\u2019t neglect the fact that in this passage we see exactly how we will both be tempted and overcome temptation. Satan\u2019s ultimate goal is to be God. In the wilderness, the one who is the most hungry is Satan, not Jesus. He\u2019s hungry for power, for glory, and for others to find their desires met in him, so he will always try to undercut our satisfaction in God by offering a convenient off-ramp of sin.\nKnowing this, we can approach temptation the same way Jesus did. (1) Trust our Father to provide what we need, (2) fight temptation by quoting the Word of God, and (3) resist (and watch the devil flee (James 4:7, Matthew 4:11).\nThis is congruent with the will of God and works to sanctify us. How did Jesus find Himself in the wilderness in the path of this intense temptation? The Spirit led Him there. Similarly, God ordains situations for us that work to test us, teach us to depend fully on Him, and grow us in our sanctification. We dare not despise the wildernesses He takes us through, for they\u2019re often the places we hunger and thirst for Him most \u2014 and find that He satisfies every time.\nOur accuser is not ultimate, and we shouldn\u2019t fear him as such. He is just an old serpent as good as dead, head crushed by a resurrected heel, body flailing about, and forked tongue still whispering lies and temptations until he\u2019s silenced once and for all when Jesus returns. Our hope is Christ \u2014 our perfect, sympathetic high priest.",

        "raw_content": "Church of England Makes Last-ditch Effort to Reach Out to Abuse Survivors Ahead of Damning Report\nThe Church of England has made last-ditch efforts to engage with sexual abuse survivors before a report of how it recorded cases of abuse is published.\nThat report is expected to be highly critical of the Church.\nThe BBC has learned that abuse allegations involving dead and retired clergy were left out of a CofE review.\nA spokesperson for the Anglican Church said recent criticisms \u201chave been taken very seriously and acted upon\u201d.\nSurvivors have accused the Church of a \u201cwholly inadequate\u201d response.\nSince March the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) has heard how the Church of England handled allegations of sexual misconduct stretching back to the 1950s.\nIt has been an uncomfortable experience for Church leaders.\nThe Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby described Church failures as \u201cdeeply shaming\u201d.\nThe Church of England\u2019s Past Cases Review (PCR) looked at over 40,000 case files \u2013 it is not known whether they all related to abuse claims \u2013 but the review concluded that just 13 cases of alleged child sexual abuse needed formal action.\n\u2018Satanic ritual abuse\u2019\nThe BBC has seen emails showing discussions and disagreements about which cases to include.\nThey show confusion about the criteria of who to include. Eventually the PCR excluded those who had died, retired, or who were deemed no longer to pose a risk.\nOther excluded cases related to a cleric who was allegedly addicted to pornography and another said to have had an \u201cobsessional interest in satanic ritual abuse\u201d.\nSexual offences which had been decriminalised were also left out, leaving the possibility that cases involving abuse of boys of the age of 16 or 17 went unrecorded.\nAllegations of grooming behaviour were also excluded. One diocesan bishop did not engage with the review at all and many files containing allegations remained unopened in filing cabinets.\nJustin Humphries of the Churches\u2019 Child Protection Advisory Service says the review may have failed to identify some abusers.\n\u201cI can\u2019t say for sure but I think it would be fair to say that yes, that is a distinct possibility.\u201d\nA report will be published next month into the PCR. It is expected to be highly critical.\n\u2018Chaotic structure\u2019\nThe report author, Sir Roger Singleton, has already told the inquiry about multiple failings in the way the review was carried out with \u201cconcern about the reliability of the statistics\u201d and \u201cchaotic structure\u201d.\nDocuments also suggest the Church hierarchy worked behind the scenes to limit damage to the reputation of the then-Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams.\nIn an email exchange in October 2010 \u2013 during the Chichester sex abuse scandal \u2013 a press adviser to Dr Williams said \u201cthe real danger here is that these stories are used to suggest that the CofE is as bad as Rome, both in abuse and cover-up\u201d and \u201cthe aim must be to distance the current ABC (Archbishop of Canterbury) from it as much as poss\u201d.\nDr Williams told the inquiry he had not previously seen the email.\nIn most cases survivors were not asked to give evidence to the Past Cases Review and there has been criticism of the Church for failing to fully involve them.\nPhil Johnson, who was abused by a clergyman in the Chichester Diocese, says the Church\u2019s response to survivors has been \u201cwholly inadequate\u2026 there\u2019s been a sense of paralysis almost on the part of the Church\u201d and \u201cof seeing the survivors as the problem\u201d.\nThe Church of England says criticism of its handling of the review have been taken very seriously and have been acted upon.\nIt says it will support the recommendations in next month\u2019s report by Sir Roger Singleton and has also commissioned a survey from the Social Care Institute for Excellence, asking for the views of survivors.\nPrevious French Priest Slaps Crying Baby During Baptism\nNext Jacki King to Southern Baptist Pastors: \u2018We Don\u2019t Want Your Pulpits \u2014 Just a Seat at the Table, and a Lane On the Track to Run Beside You.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "NASA\u2019s Mars Probe (MRO) Sends Home Snapshots of Basin on Mars Where a Lake Once Existed\nNASA\u2019s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has snapped photos of the Melas Basin, which researchers believe was once the location of a 1,300-foot-deep lake when Mars was a watery world billions of years ago.\nIn the MRO image, \u201ca group of steeply inclined light-toned layers is bounded above and below by unconformities (sudden or irregular changes from one deposit to another),\u201d according to the NASA statement that accompanied the released image.\nThe unconformities and layers likely resulted from materials being deposited on the lake floor by a river or river delta that flowed into the basin.\n\u201cThe layered deposits in Melas Basin may have been deposited during the growth of a delta complex,\u201d NASA said in the statement. \u201cThis depositional sequence likely represents a period where materials were being deposited on the floor of a lake or running river.\u201d\nData from the MRO and NASA\u2019s Curiosity Rover suggests that when Mars was but a baby world, it was covered in a shallow layer of liquid water, about 450 feet deep. Asteroid strikes and solar wind slowly deprived Mars of its atmosphere, but some of the water remained as both frost and lakes. Little by little, the water sublimated into a gaseous form and escaped into space.\nYet water remains even on the desiccated red planet, mostly at the polar ice caps. The MRO also discovered hydrated sulfates (sulfuric salt) along the surface of the Melas Basin.\nMuch of what we know about Mars is thanks to the MRO, which has been orbiting since 2006. Its high resolution camera has been continuously beaming photographs back to Earth for over a decade now, and it has single-handedly produced more data than all other interplanetary probes put together. In late March 2017, it completed its 50,000th lap around the Red Planet.\nThe most recent round of photos are from Mars\u2019 equinox last May, where the entire planet is bathed in sunlight and thus becomes particularly visible. Coincidentally, the equinox coincided with the period when the sun and Mars were on opposite sides of Earth, allowing for excellent communication between ground control and the MRO.\nThe Melas Basin was one of the landing sites considered for Mars 2020, the next generation of NASA\u2019s Martian rovers. In February 2017 it was eliminated from consideration along with several other sites.\nThe entire collection of images captured so far by the HiRise camera can be viewed here.\nSputniknews, Rawstory",

(That success, coupled with the singer\u2019s huge run of country to pop crossover success led to him getting his own variety series as a CBS midseason replacement in January 1969.)\nCream (guitarist Eric Clapton, bassist Jack Bruce and drummer Ginger Baker) were promoting their third album and were no strangers to U.S. audiences either collectively or individually. The British classic rock supergroup\u2019s 1966 debut, Fresh Cream, reached #39 on the album sales chart and the 1967 follow-up, Disraeli Gears, reached #4. The latter included \u201cSunshine of Your Love,\u201d which became a huge breakthrough hit when it was released as a single in January 1968. (In one of those chart oddities, the group\u2019s signature song peaked at #5 on Billboard\u2018s singles chart but was the same publication\u2019s #6 song for all of 1968.)\nThe July 1968 double LP Wheels of Fire continued their commercial success. The second disc was a live album recorded in San Francisco earlier that year. The studio LP included another huge hit, \u201cWhite Room\u201d which became their only Top 5 single. (Interestingly, their never hit the Top 10 in their native England.)\nIn the broadcast, Campbell introduces \u201cThe three guys you are about to meet were at one time considered to be the finest studio musicians in England. They were considered the cream of the crop of their profession so they figured they were so much in demand that they started their own thing.

        "raw_content": "Home/News, Research, Core Faculty, Suzie Pun, Drew Sellers/TAxI peptide shuttles protein cargo into spinal cord\nImage: A micrograph of a motor neuron cell showing its extended fibers.\nResearchers have long sought to develop effective biologic drugs, such as peptides, proteins and nucleic acids, for treating motor neuron diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gerhrig\u2019s disease. However, efforts to develop therapies for these diseases are complicated by the difficulty of bypassing the blood brain barrier. This selectively permeable structure protects the brain and central nervous system from harmful substances. However, this defense mechanism can also block helpful medications from targeting the nervous system.\nDrew Sellers, research assistant professor of bioengineering, and Suzie Pun, the Robert F. Rushmer Professor of Bioengineering, have made progress towards addressing this long-term research challenge. They have demonstrated that a small peptide called TAxI, or Targeted Axonal Import, could, in mice, transport a recombinant protein into motor neurons following injection into muscle. The researchers\u2019 study was published February 16 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and was also featured in UW Health Sciences\u2019 NewsBeat.\nMotor neurons lead from the spinal cord to innervate muscles and initiate movement. TAxI passes the blood brain barrier by moving from the injection site down axons, or the long projections from motor neurons that connect to muscle, to accumulate in the lumbar region of the spinal cord.\nThe researchers\u2019 strategy to examine the potential of peptide delivery via motor neurons was inspired by the ability of viruses like herpes simplex virus to enter the central nervous system. Prior research has investigated the possibility of exploiting this mechanism to deliver engineered viruses and proteins that transport therapeutic agents, but such applications pose safety concerns and high production costs.\nThe researchers hypothesized that they could identify a peptide with a similar mechanism of action as viruses that can enter the central nervous system. Dr. Sellers, the study\u2019s lead author, discovered the possibilities of TAxI by screening a library of over a billion possible peptide sequences from genetically modified bacteriophages, or viruses that infect bacteria.\nThe findings of this study reveal promising new strategies for drug delivery to the central nervous system. The work could not only lead to treatments that more effectively treat neurodegenerative diseases, but are also minimally invasive \u2013 currently, drugs are commonly delivered to the central nervous system through spinal catheters or other painful procedures.\nAfter showing the capabilities of TAxI in early proof-of-concept experiments, the researchers next plan to further examine its mechanism of action then apply it in models of motor neuron diseases. If successful, they hope to develop it further for clinical applications.",

        "raw_content": "DAVIES, CLARA NOVELLO (\u2018Pencerddes Morgannwg\u2019; 1861 - 1943) musician\nName: Clara Novello Davies\nPseudonym: \u2018Pencerddes Morgannwg\u2019\nChild: David Ivor\nParent: Jacob Davies\nBorn 7 April 1861 in Canton, Cardiff, daughter of Jacob Davies and Margaret his wife, and named Clara Novello after Clara Anastasia (n\u00e9e Novello), whom Jacob Davies had heard singing. She received her musical education from her father, Dr. Frost, Frederick Atkins (Cardiff), and Charles Williams (organist of Llandaff Cathedral).\nShe was appointed, when quite young, accompanist to the Cardiff United Choir and the Cardiff Blue Ribbon Choir, which took many prizes at the Crystal Palace, London, under her father's baton. In 1883, Clara Novello formed a ladies choir which held many successful concerts in Wales and England. In 1893 the choir won the prize in the World Fair, Chicago, the test pieces being \u2018The Lord is my Shepherd\u2019 (Schubert) and \u2018The Spanish Gypsy\u2019. Afterwards they toured through part of the United States and gave several concerts in some of the chief towns of England and Wales on their return. In 1900 that choir was invited to sing in the Paris Exposition.\nThroughout the years some of Clara Novello's pupils succeeded in winning prizes in national eisteddfodau. In 1927 she began to experiment with her own particular method of voice-production and breathing, and in 1928 published an explanatory book entitled You can sing; this work was dedicated to her son, Ivor Novello (1893 - 1951).\nShe had a voice-training school in New York, and, in 1924, she formed the Novello Davies Artist Choir to take part in concerts. In 1928 the Welsh Ladies Choir was invited to sing at Windsor Castle; it also received a similar invitation on 26 April to the Paris Exposition in 1937. The Choir rendered much service by raising funds for charitable purposes, especially during the two World Wars.\nAn autobiographical work, entitled The Life I have loved, was published by Clara Novello in 1940. She died 7 February 1943 and was cremated at Golder's Green, London.\nF.

        "title": "After Quito where now for UN Habitat?",
        "raw_content": "After Quito where now for UN Habitat?\nBy Felix Dodds and Jenkins Thomas\nHabitat III where the world gathered in Quito and adopted the New Urban Agenda at the third United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development. finished on the 20th of October. We thought it would be a good time to look to the Post Quito period.\nThe conference has shaped a new global action plan for cities. Second, it marked the end of a long and arduous negotiation process considering the difficult negotiation terrain defined by low political impetus, and third it opened yet a new chapter- of relooking at the mechanisms for implementing the New Urban Agenda. What it failed to do was to link substantively the New Urban Agenda to the Sustainable Development Goals and in particular to the over 140 targets that will need to be implemented at the sub-national and local level. This will impact on the implementation of the agenda as governments will focus primarily on delivering the Paris Climate Agreement, the Sendai Framework on Disasters and Risks Reduction and the Sustainable Development Goals and on utilizing the Addis Ababa Action Agenda to help fund these.\nIn the post Quito period, for those who have continuously followed international governance, whether of the global environment with its coterie of Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEA), or development with the entire cluster of UN development institutions, one thing stands out. That successful achievement of agreed goals depends on bringing to bear effective means of implementation and an enabling environment.\nHere, the means of implementation must be given an interpretation beyond financial resources, capacity building, knowledge sharing and technology transfer. For it must include among others institutions whether legal or structural tasked with managing and reporting on operationalization of mandates. That is precisely why Member States requested the Secretary General to commission an independent evidence based assessment of the UN-Habitat to identify and recommend measures needed to enhance its effective response in light of the New Urban Agenda.\nIt\u2019s clear that there is still work to be undertaken to ensure that the SDGs are effectively delivered at the local level. The SDG Agenda and elements from the NUA has a huge and real potential in accelerating the localizing and implementation of the SDGs thereby advancing sustainable development.\nThere is no question that much of the Paris Agenda and the SDGs will be delivered at the sub-national and local level. The UN- Habitat is a weak body in the UN system and it clearly needs to be strengthened to perform its role as a focal point in the coordinated implementation of the New Urban Agenda. While at the same time working much closer and collaboratively with the rest of the UN system \u2013 which it hasn\u2019t effectively done in the past.\nThat is why the Secretary General of the United Nations now needs to move with speed to launch an independent assessment of the UN-Habitat so that Member States can take the necessary adjustments to make it fit for purpose.\nWho will undertake this review? This could be potentially controversial. While the New Urban Agenda outcome set out the scope, it did not expressly provide for the options of conducting the assessment. Rather, it conferred on the Secretary General the sweeping responsibility to do it without clear terms of reference.\nIt will therefore be important for the Secretary General to navigate safely against a possible political turbulence that may characterize the process. Here, he might opt to employ a safer route-the expertise within the UN System itself. And possible bodies are the Joint Inspection Unit (JIU), the Office of the Internal Oversight Services (OIOS), the Board of Auditors or an amalgam of a team drawn from the three.\nAnother option could be for him to set the political tempo straight from the word go by selecting equal number of experts from the global South and global North. Supporters of this will argue logically that the New Urban Agenda is universal in nature and contributions to its implementation should reflect that reality. Of course, the approach may guarantee some level of comfort and legitimacy of the report thereby increase its chances of approval. But could be problematic as it might be open to \u2018effective lobbying\u2019.\nHe may as well consider the option of getting experts from countries ready to provide financial resources for the exercise. The outcome has not asked him to directly mobilize the requisite financial resources considering the zero growth of the UN budget. This route can be counterproductive considering the politics of strengthening the UN- Habitat that nearly paralyzed the preparatory process. It is the least attractive probability as it is ready fodder for questioning the objectiveness and impartiality of the outcome.\nThe point here is that the report should at least find some traction with the vast majority of member states if it is to be considered favorably. Both the substance and process of arriving at the same should be seen as objective and legitimate. And so, while the Secretary General has the discretion in directing the exercise, it is equally important that he reflects and balance that reality with expectations; the assessment and its outcome must be objective, impartial , consultative and forward looking.\nWhat has become clear in recent years is that the current financial mobilization trend is away from core funding to earmarked funding. Now the earmarked funding has outperformed the non-earmarked resources. Is that a referendum on the confidence of the leadership at the UN- Habitat by the funders? This clearly needs to be evaluated in the context of the leadership and whether this is good for the overall normative and operational work of the agency.\nThe normative and operational focus of the UN-Habitat needs to provide clear strategic vision beyond the New Urban Agenda to include cross cutting issues focused on the Paris Climate Agreement and the SDGs. With the coming in of Mr. Antonio Gutterres, the new Secretary General of the United Nations, the current Executive Director is expected to leave office (perhaps even before) or in October 2017 after completing his two terms.\nWithout a doubt, his successor has a lot to do. The first brief will be to ensure that the UN- Habitat works in a more coordinated and coherent manner, inspires and enjoys confidence of all Member States and offers sound leadership to the staff and the entire UN family in promoting sustainable urbanization and human settlements including the New Urban Agenda. It is only then that UN- Habitat will be fit for purpose.\nfelix dodds habitat III jenkins thomas",

        "title": "Inspiring Thursday: Lillian Ngoyi - WAVE Blog",
        "raw_content": "Lillian Masediba Ngoyi was born on September 24th, 1911 in the city of Pretoria, South Africa. Her mother was Annie Modipadi Matabane and her father was Isaac Mmankhatteng, who worked in a platinum mine. She was educated at the Kilnerton Institution in the mid-1920ies, but her dream of becoming a teacher were dampened when she was forced to quit school and help take care of her family.\nBetween 1928 and 1930, she worked as a nurse at the City Mine Hospital. In 1934, she married the van driver John Ngoyi and had three children with him, Edith Mosime, Memory Chauke, and Eggart, but the couple ended up separating. Ngoyi started working as a domestic servant, but lasted just three months in the job, which she despised, before she left. A few years later, she ended up in a clothing factory where she worked as a machinist for 11 years. On top of this job, she became an official in the Garment Workers\u2019 Union, which spurred her remarkable career in activism.\nIn 1952, she joined the African National Congress (ANC), an organisation dedicated to ending apartheid. Along with other political pioneers, Helen Suzman, Helen Joseph, Ida Mtwana, and Charlotte Mxeke , Ngoyi founded the Women\u2019s League of the ANC and went on to attain several leadership positions within the organisation, such as national president and Transvaal provicional president. She also became president of the Federation of South African Women.\nShe was arrested several times for her involvement in activist events. One time, she was arrested for using facilities reserved for white people at the post office, and after the mass march, which took place the 9th of August, 1956, she was arrested and tried for treason. In the end, she was acquitted, but was later arrested at a number of occasions for her political involvement and spent five months in solitary confinement and additional time in prison.\nOn August 9th, 20,000 women gathered for a mass march protesting against the pass laws, which sought to restrict black women further and prevent them from moving around freely, expose them to sexual abuse from officials who would never be held responsible, and affect their children to a devastating extend. Many of the women had never left their villages and others were carrying their employers\u2019 babies on their back. The marchers took 100,000 signatures and headed towards the office of prime minister Strijdom. Ngoyi knocked on his door to hand over the petitions, but was told, from a voice behind the door, that a letter had been sent to her prohibiting her from showing up at the office. To that Ngoyi said: \u201cThe women of Africa are outside. They built this place. Their husbands died for this.\u201d She then went back to the marchers announcing that \u201cStrijdom is too much of a coward to meet with us.\u201d The women sang Wathint\u2019abafazi, wathint\u2019imbokodo. Strijdom uzakufa (You touch the women, you touch the rock) and then left in peace. Despite the dismissal, the they felt a sense of victory.\nWhen she died in her home in 1980, she had been living under a banning order issued by the government for 18 years. This meant that she was restricted in her movements and contacts, and she could not be quoted by the press either. She was buried at the Avalon Cemetery in Soweto next to Helen Joseph.\nhttps://www.iol.co.za/news/politics/how-lilian-ngoyi-changed-the-lives-of-sa-women-10676137\nhttp://biography.yourdictionary.com/lillian-ngoyi\nhttps://www.tyi.co.za/your-life/news/who-is-lillian-masediba-ngoyi-and-why-does-she-matter-16462625",

        "raw_content": "Home / Music / Reviews music / Music Review: Omara Portuondo \u2013 Gracias\nYou will thank her after listening to the album.\nMusic Review: Omara Portuondo \u2013 Gracias\nGordon S. Miller January 26, 2009 1 Comment 17 Views\nLike many Americans, I unfortunately didn\u2019t discover Omara Portuondo until the late \u201890s when she emerged as the only female singer on the highly successful Buena Vista Social Club, at which point her musical career had been going approximately 50 years in her native Cuba. She has a lovely expressive voice and even though my understanding of Espa\u00f1ol is limited, the emotions of the stories she sings about on Gracias and her reflections in the liner notes transcend my linguistic limitations.\n\u201cYo vi\u201d reminds Portuondo \u201cof the Caribbean and its islands\u201d and it\u2019s easy to hear why. The musical arrangement is as comforting as a warm night\u2019s breeze off the ocean, particularly the eleven-piece string section waxing and waning throughout like the moonlight.\n\u201cAdi\u00f3s felicidad\u201d is about \u201ca love I once had but which never actually came to pass. A love that could never be.\u201d Even without knowing the title means \u201cgoodbye happiness,\u201d the listener can hear the sadness and resignation in her voice, especially when she repeats the words. The music parallels the emotions as Roberto Fonseca\u2019s lone piano opens the song. On the bridge Avishai Cohen\u2019s double bass comes to the forefront with a restrained freneticism\n\u201cO que ser\u00e1 (\u00c0 flor da terra)\u201d finds Portuondo trading vocals with Chico Buarque on a song that captures her life-long captivation with Brazil. The rhythm is upbeat and sure to fill the dance floor. On \u201cVuela pena\u201d she starts softly, backed by just the piano. As the song progresses, her vocals, augmented by the other instruments, swell in intensity like she is emerging from turmoil and has grown stronger for surviving. The song repeats the pattern.\n\u201cAmame como soy\u201d is a tribute to Elena Burke, her fellow singer in Cuarteto D'Aida. Pablo Milan\u00e9s, who wrote the song, joins in the vocal. It\u2019s got a great beat. She sings another Milan\u00e9s song, \u201cTu mi desenga\u00f1o.\u201d It has a very lush sound from the 12-person string section backing her.\nThe title track, sung with Jorge Drexler, is a thank you to all the musicians she has worked with, it\u2019s so simple and pleasing reflecting the simple joy and gratitude that common phrase can convey. On \u201cLo que me queda por vivir\u201d the 78-year-old sings about \u201cwhat life still has to give [her], and\u2026it will be a smile.\u201d It\u2019s a great, positive outlook no matter how many days lie ahead. The large string section returns to this arrangement, giving the song weight and grandeur.\nChildren have had a great impact on Portuondo\u2019s life. \u201cCuento para un ni\u00f1o\u201d \u201cis dedicated to their innocence and to the difficult task entailed by becoming an adult.\u201d By singing over an acoustic guitar for the majority of it, the music emulates a child-like simplicity. \u201cCachita\u201d opens with a young girl singing, her granddaughter Rossio Jimenez. Abuela Omara joins in the next verse. They sing together on the chorus backed only by a clave. There is something so sweet and natural about the two singing together, like they might do alone in a garden. \u201cNuestro gran amor,\u201d written by her son Ariel Jimin\u00e9z, \u201cportrays the profound love\u201d that only a mother can feel for her son.\n\u201cDrume negrita\u201d is a lullaby she used to sing to her son and granddaughter. Only backed by bass, percussion, and background vocals, it creates a dreamy state the listener can to drift off to as it closes the album.\nOmara Portuondo\u2019s Gracias is a beautiful album that reveals a number of facets of her life. The words may sound foreign, but the music and stories are universal.",

As part of our school\u2019s aims to promote a positive school ethos, we are working towards gaining recognition as a \u201cRights Respecting School\u201d. This is an award which is given to schools on behalf of UNICEF.\nUNICEF is the world\u2019s leading organisation working for children and their rights. In 1989, governments worldwide promised all children the same rights by adopting the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). These rights are based on what a child needs to survive, grow, participate and fulfil their potential.\nThe \u2018Rights Respecting School\u2019 award (RRSA) will support our ongoing target for each of our pupils to grow into confident, caring and responsible young citizens both in school and within the wider community. By learning about their rights our pupils, your children, also learn about the importance of respecting the rights of others \u2013 their responsibilities.\nBalfron High School pupils are encouraged to reflect on how their behaviour and actions affect those around them, which allows us to build and maintain a positive and safe learning environment for all, both in the classroom and around the school community.\nIt would be great if you could spend a few minutes reading through the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which is printed on the parental letter in RRSA resources. We hope to continue to update this dedicated area of our school website, which will host lots of information about these rights and how we are promoting them across the school community.\nWe really hope that you will feel able to support us and your child in working towards our goal of formally becoming a \u2018Rights Respecting School\u2019. We would love for you to become involved.\nIf you would like more information about the work of UNICEF or a Rights Respecting School then please visit: www.unicef.org.uk/rrsa.\nRRS Visitors",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Entertainment \u00bb The Greatest Lawyer Movies of All Time: Denial\nThe Holocaust Memorial in Berlin, Germany.\n2016 dir. Mick Jackson\nHis views are steeped in paranoia and built on the denial of basic, obvious facts. He\u2019s already revered in shadowy right-wing corners of the net, but he wants to bring his fringe theories into the mainstream. He\u2019s litigious. When he\u2019s criticized, he strikes back with a lawsuit. He insists he\u2019s not a racist; he\u2019s just a patriot with a special love for his own people, and he wants to see the culture that his parents passed on to him preserved. He\u2019s bombastic, a showman, but the theatrics cover over a disturbed and hateful psychology. Sometimes, before bed, he likes to read the speeches of Adolf Hitler, the words of the dictator repeating in his mind like a lullaby.\nI\u2019m speaking, of course, of David Irving, British historian of the Third Reich and noted Holocaust denier. \u201cDenial,\u201d a new film starring Rachel Weiss, Tom Wilkinson, and Timothy Spall, tells the story of Irving\u2019s lawsuit against Deborah Lipstadt, an expert on Holocaust denial who called Irving a liar and anti-Semite. Irving sued Lipstadt for libel in 1996, and in the British court system where the case was tried, the burden of proof goes to the defendant. So, a perverse task befell Lipstadt: to establish that Irving was, in fact, a liar, she and her lawyers had to prove in court that more than a million men, women, and children really were gassed at Auschwitz.\nThis makes for a strange kind of drama: the central question of the movie is whether Lipstadt\u2019s team will be able to successfully prove what every thinking person already knows to be true. The obviousness of who\u2019s right and who\u2019s wrong takes some suspense out of the proceedings, but the courtroom battle in \u201cDenial\u201d is actually quite powerful. The movie is a procedural about the careful, methodical dismantling of a pack of lies. It\u2019s a celebration of sanity over sophistry, reason over bullshit.\nThe timing of the movie\u2019s release could not have been better. Irving bears more than a passing resemblance to a certain American presidential candidate: in his bullying manner, his infuriating obfuscations, and his remarkable indecency. Both men live in their own, twisted realities. Both seem to think it\u2019s more offensive to call someone racist than to be racist. Both lie with impunity and demand proof for things that there is no good reason to question.\nThere\u2019s simply no arguing with such people. But how can they be kept from wreaking havoc? Hillary Clinton, thank god, seems to know what Lipstadt and her lawyers knew: you don\u2019t let them get under your skin; you box them in with facts; you let their own ugly words speak for themselves.\nSo, \u201cDenial\u201d is worth watching for people who are feeling exasperated with our current political scene. It also has a lot to offer fans of the lawyer movie genre. Much of the film\u2019s dialogue was lifted straight from court transcripts, and the cross-examinations of Irving by barrister Richard Rampton crackle with precision and force.\nThat said, \u201cDenial\u201d is ultimately not a great film. Outside of the courtroom, it fails to flesh out its characters or conflicts in a particularly compelling way. The script, by playwright David Hare, spends a lot of time emphasizing Lipstadt\u2019s disagreements with her lawyers about who should take the stand. These arguments are interesting, as far as legal strategy goes, but they\u2019re not quite enough to hang a story on. Meanwhile, as Deborah Lipstadt, Rachel Weiss doesn\u2019t have much to do other than be frustrated and occasionally go jogging with her dog.\nStill, \u201cDenial\u201d is a great film for the moment. It\u2019s incredibly cathartic to see a racist liar be skillfully exposed. The court system may not be a perfect arbiter of the truth, but it sure is better than cable news.\nOctober 3, 2016 - 18:41 pm - By Alex Connolly\nPhoto Credit: Michele Corsi.

        "title": "BLUESHIRT BULLET POINTS: BLUESHIRTS MAKE SHOCKING YET NOT UNEXPECTED MOVE; PLACE DEFENSEMAN BRENDAN SMITH ON WAIVERS - Blueshirt Bulletin",
        "raw_content": "\u201cThere\u2019s a storm a brewing.\u201d\nNews broke early Thursday morning Brendan Smith had been placed on waivers by the Rangers.\nThe Rangers released a statement from Head Coach Alain Vigneault:\n\u201cThere\u2019s no doubt he has played better for us in the past. And this year he got off to a slow start. We worked with him in a number of different ways and he seemed to be having a hard time finding his game. At the end of the day, this might be a little drastic, but coaches and management felt this was the way to go for our team right now.\u201d\nSmith \u2014 originally acquired at last season\u2019s trade deadline from Detroit \u2014 was impressive during his first couple months as a Blueshirt.\nHis gritty-style of play meshed well with the youthful flair of Brady Skjei during last year\u2019s playoffs. And it was that chemistry and performance that led the Rangers to resign Smith at the start of free agency.\nRather than signing for top dollar elsewhere, Smith chose to sign a four-year/$17.4 million contract to stay in New York.\nAt that point, it was fair to say the Blueshirts had a successful offseason.\nThe resigning of Smith, coupled with their free agent acquisition of Kevin Shattenkirk had many believing the Rangers defense would be a force to be reckoned with.\nThen the season started and everything went downhill.\nThough nobody outside the team knew it at the time, Shattenkirk tore his meniscus at some point in September/October. He attempted to play through the pain until January when he opted for surgery.\nTHE TOUGH BEGINNING\nMeanwhile, right from the start, Smith drew the ire of the fans and his coaches.\nAfter the first two games of the season, Smith found himself scratched from the lineup in consecutive games due to his defensive lapses.\nWith the team struggling to the tune of a 3-7-2 record, there were rumblings Alain Vigneault\u2019s job could be on the line if they didn\u2019t beat Vegas on Halloween at The Garden.\nThe Rangers won the game; launching a six-game winning-streak. But one player was noticeable in his absence. And that was Brendan Smith.\nHEALTHY SCRATCHED TIMES SIX\nFollowing the team\u2019s comeback win against the Golden Knights, Smith was scratched for six-straight games.\nSmith finally returned to the lineup on November 17th against the Blue Jackets; posting a minus one rating in 14:25 of ice time.\nSince then, Smith has occasionally found himself sitting in the press box. But never to the extent that he did in the beginning of November.\nThe problems that have plagued Brendan are simple. He takes too many penalties, he coughs up the puck at an alarming rate and he often fails to keep pace with whichever opposing player he\u2019s tasked with defending.\nAll in all, this isn\u2019t what Smith envisioned for himself \u2014 or the team \u2014 when he signed his contract over the summer.\nWhat should have been a happy marriage is now headed to a likely bitter divorce.\nThe Blueshirts called up defenseman Neal Pionk from Hartford.\nThe Hermantown, Minnesota native signed with the Rangers on May 1, 2017 as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Minnesota Duluth.\nPionk has 17 points (1G, 16A) in 48 games with the Wolf Pack this season. And he had a memorable preseason game against the Islanders; scoring the overtime winner.\nMeanwhile, Jimmy Vesey skated in a non-contact jersey today.",

        "raw_content": "Review Date September 16th, 2008 by Peter Bracke\nOverview - When Shrek married Fiona the last thing he had in mind was becoming the next King of Far Far Away. But when Shrek\u2019s father-in-law, King Harold, suddenly croaks, that is exactly what he faces. Recruiting Donkey and Puss In Boots for a new quest, Shrek sets out to bring back the rightful heir to the throne. Meanwhile back in the kingdom, Fiona's jilted Prince Charming storms the city with an army of fairy tale villains to seize the throne. Fiona and a band of princesses must stop him to ensure there will be a kingdom left to rule!\nNon-format specific portions of this review also appear in our HD DVD Review of 'Shrek the Third.'\nEnglish Descriptive Audio: English Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Surround (48kHz/24-bit),French Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround (640kbps),Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround (640kbps),Portuguese Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround (640kbps)\nSubtitles/Captions: English SDH,French Subtitles,Spanish Subtitles,Portuguese Subtitles\nMovie sequels have it tough. They only exist because the public's love for the original film was so great that they want more of the same, yet at the same time, a sequel must also deliver at least something a little bit different or risk boring its audience to death with repetition. 'Shrek the Third' is a classic example of a movie that never quite successfully solves this dilemma, offering up too much of what we've seen before and too little of what we haven't.\nOf course, the original 'Shrek' wasn't all that blazingly original to begin with, with a story that borrowed liberally from classic fairy tales, and mixed it up with hip humor and a seemingly endless supply of pop culture references. 'Shrek 2' continued this approach, so I suppose it's no huge surprise that 'Shrek the Third' again plays it safe, delivering another narrative pastiche of other movies. You might think of this one as the 'Three Ogres and a Baby' meets 'The Lion King' installment in the franchise, where Shrek learns he's gonna be a papa, while at the same time struggles with the responsibility of being ruler of his kingdom. Unfortunately, the film adds little else of substance to this familiar thematic equation, and has so many returning characters and loose ends to tie up from the earlier movies that the story never gets much of a chance to live and breathe on its own. There is a curious sense of obligation to the whole affair.\nThe basics of the plot are amusing enough. When his frog-in-law suddenly croaks (har har, get it?), Shrek (Mike Myers) discovers he's the next in line to assume the throne. This doesn't go down so well with the big ogre, however, who just wants to hang around the swamp with his faithful sidekicks Donkey (Eddie Murphy) and Puss 'n' Boots (Antonio Banderas). Complicating matters is the news from Fiona (Cameron Diaz) that she's pregnant, which throws Shrek into a major daddy-to-be panic -- especially when the size of her bulging belly would seem to suggest that more than one little bundle of joy is on the way.\nThen, suddenly, Shrek gets a break when he learns that there is actually another potential heir to the throne, a supposedly noble knight named Arthur (who actually turns out to be a gangly teen named Artie, voiced by Justin Timberlake). So Shrek sets off with Donkey and Boots to entice Artie to take the job, which leads to another whirlwind adventure and run-ins with various colorful fairytale characters. But there's danger, too, when the evil Prince Charming (Rupert Everett) learns of Shrek's quest, and pledges to stop at nothing in order to snag the crown for himself -- even if it means offing Artie, Fiona and anyone else who gets in his path.\nUltimately 'Shrek the Third' feels more like a sketch show than a story. The burden of delivering a relentless parade of ironic zingers and satiric homages is crushing, and the narrative of the movie seems to be in constant danger of collapsing like a post-modern house of cards. The sheer desperation of the film's need to please overwhelms all, and any grown-up themes it attempts to explore are squashed by all the cynical cleverness. Although I have to admit a begrudging admiration for any movie that can somehow find a way to use the James Bond tune \"Live and Let Die\" as an appropriate funeral song for a dying frog, then only minutes later quote the ultimate '70s pity-party power ballad \"I've Never Been to Me\" as the theme for its villain, even with a slim runtime of barely 87 minutes, in the end I left the film more exhausted than I was exhilarated.\nThe word \"magic\" is thrown around a lot when it comes to movies in this genre, but it's true -- the best animated family movies are able to appeal to all age groups, marrying universal stories with great visuals and truly inspired humor. Unfortunately there's nothing magical about 'Shrek the Third' -- instead, it simply distracts with soulless pastiche, eventually leaving us with only the illusion of having been entertained. Still, judging by the flick's healthy box office returns, it seems that the joyous residue left by the original film is enough to carry yet another installment. As such, I'm going to go out on a limb and recommend this HD DVD for fans of the franchise, even if only for a rental. 'Shrek the Third' may have all the resonance of a commercial for the original 'Shrek,' but, for many, it seems that may be enough.\nEnglish Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Surround (48kHz/24-bit),French Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround (640kbps),Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround (640kbps),Portuguese Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround (640kbps)\nEnglish SDH,French Subtitles,Spanish Subtitles,Portuguese Subtitles\nPreviously released on HD DVD as a direct digital-to-digital presentation, DreamWorks has gone back to the same well, utilizing the identical master for this Blu-ray. This time, however, we get re-encoded 1080/VC-1 to maximize the BD-50 dual-layer disc. The result offers no quantifiable difference between the previous HD DVD.\nUnlike a string of more recent animated films that have attempted to simulate a more \"film-like\" look (making background elements appear out of focus, adding grain, etc.), DreamWorks goes the opposite route, with everything appearing so incredibly sharp that it's almost creepy. 'Shrek the Third' is incredibly dimensional, and is about as close to 3-D as you're going to get without a pair of red and blue glasses. The level of detail and fine textures can be astounding, and just about any scene in the film is easily demo material.\nThe rest of the presentation is just as impressive. Colors are bold (particularly the striking icky green of ogre skin, and the fiery purples and oranges of the dragon) but never oversaturated. The image also avoids an over-processed look, with well-modulated contrast across the entire grayscale and deep, rich blacks that are free of heavy crush. I detected no problems with compression or other artifacts, and edge enhancement appears to be completely absent. Even a year after the HD DVD edition, this Blu-ray of 'Shrek the Third' boasts a marvelous transfer that easily holds it own with the best animated presentations I've seen on high-def.\nThe audio on the 'Shrek the Third' HD DVD was a disappointment, as DreamWorks opted to eschew high-res audio and go for Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 Surround (1.5mbps) only. The studio has not made that same mistake twice, and bumps up the Blu-ray to Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Surround (48kHz/24-bit). It offers a nice -- if not massive -- upgrade.\nThe biggest beneficiary of the bump to high-res audio are the surrounds. The 'Shrek' films have always enjoyed wonderfully alive surround mixes, with discrete effects accompanying the zany action on the screen. Activity in the rear channels is near-constant, with noticeably superior heft to dynamic range and improved imaging between channels. Pans and score bleed merge often to create a fairly consistent \"wall of sound\" out of the rears, and sustained subtle ambiance ain't too shabby either with everything from minute drops of rain to wind in the trees subtle but noticeable in the surrounds.\nLike most animated films, 'Shrek the Third' is an entirely studio-constructed soundtrack, so the caliber of the source is always impeccable. The TrueHD mix doesn't sound much more expansive than the Dolby Digital-Plus track, however, with low bass that extends only slightly beyond what came before (the subwoofer was a weak point of the HD DVD as well). The rest of the track sounds clean and refined. Dialogue holds strong, and is nicely balanced in the center channel.\nHistorically, DreamWorks has done a pretty good job of providing well-balanced supplemental packages for its family titles, recognizing the needs of both kids and adults alike. 'Shrek the Third' mined that approach for the HD DVD, and the studio doesn't waver for the Blu-ray, which ports over all of the same extras. Unfortunately, I wasn't blown away the first time as this is a rather flat set that appears more geared to marketing concerns than delivering truly insightful content. (As with the HD DVD, all video materials are in 1080p/i and either AVC MPEG-4 or MPEG-2.)\nLet's start by looking at the more adult-oriented fare, which can all be found under the \"Special Features\" tab.\nMeet the Cast (11 minutes) - First up is a fun little featurette that introduces us to all of the main voice talent. Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, Antonio Banderas, Eddie Murphy and Justin Timberlake all contribute a few comments, and there is some nice behind-the-scenes footage of the voice recording sessions. No great shakes here, but fairly informative nonetheless.\nShrek Tech (10 minutes) - Dissecting the film's basic animation approach and techniques, this one features lots of quick cuts of all of the main characters in various stages of rendering, but little that goes beneath the surface. At least the snappy pace keeps things from getting boring.\nLost Scenes (25 minutes) - There are four \"lost scenes\" in all, although the title of this feature is a bit misleading as these are not actual scenes but actually excerpts from \"pitch meetings\" with filmmakers Dave Smith and Hamish Grieve. They describe each scene, and there are some pencil sketches shown via split-screen, but no final renderings were ever produced.\nBig Green Goofs(2 minute) - This one's your standard blooper reel. Of course, all of this material is animated, so it's hardly \"spontaneous,\" with various forced gags and intentionally \"missed\" lines. The animation is also all over the place, with most clips not up to the quality of the finished film, but rather rough renderings and the like.\nShrek's Guide to Parenthood - Comprised of four 1-minute segments, this one provides exactly what the title suggests -- acerbic child-rearing tips that no parent would actually follow. Strangely, Shrek himself doesn't even participate. Instead, we get only Donkey, Puss in Boots, Pinocchio and Gingy.\nDonkey Dance (1 minute) - This mock music video features Donkey doing a routine to the old '80s chestnut \"The Safety Dance\" by Men Without Hats. Super slight, and not as cute as it sounds.\nDreamWorks Animation Jukebox - This isn't even really a feature -- it's just a commercial machine. Select from among six other DreamWorks titles ('Flushed Away,' 'Shrek,' 'Shrek 2,' 'Over the Hedge,' 'Shark's Tale' or 'Madagascar') and watch a musical clip from the movie. Presented in full 1080p video, all look great, so at least we have something to look forward to. (Note that as of this writing, none of the above titles except 'Madagascar' have yet been announced for high-def release.)\nTheatrical Trailers - Sadly, there are none provided for any of the 'Shrek' movies, only two DreamWorks Animation releases, 'Bee Movie' and 'Kung Fu Panda.'\nNext up are several extras that live outside of the \"Special Features\" tab, most specifically geared to the tots.\nMerlin's Magic Crystal Ball - Although it's dubbed as an interactive \"game,\" this one's essentially an electronic magic 8-ball. Activate it, and you're asked to think of a Yes or No question. Then hit enter, and Merlin will give you one of a few canned responses. That's it.\nLearn the Donkey Dance - Builds upon the aforementioned faux-music video, only adding instructions on how to learn all of Donkey's red-hot moves.\nHow to Be Green (4 minutes) - This one's essentially a PSA for kids, with about a dozen tips on how to combat global warming, and other environmentally-conscious ideas.\nMy Menus - This one's actually pretty neat. Here, you can select between six different menu designs: the default menu, or five alternates each based around a particular character in the movie (Shrek, Donkey, Boots, Gingy and the Gingerbread Man). Nifty.\nThe fairy tale-meets-post-modern formula wears pretty thin with 'Shrek the Third,' but there's still enough here to barely recommend it to fans of the franchise -- if no one else. It's also the kind of film kids will watch over and over again, so parents will certainly get their money's worth. Although I found the seemingly over-stuffed supplemental package on this Blu-ray a bit fluffy, the video and audio are very strong. The latter even gets a bump up to high-res over the previous HD DVD, which only adds to the overall value for your money. The movie ain't great, but this Blu-ray is still worth a look.",

        "raw_content": "Staying on Topic and Having Conversations After Brain Injury\nStaying on Topic After Brain Injury\nOne of the brain injury issues that many survivors encounter is staying on topic while having a conversation. There could be several reasons why they have trouble with this and one might be confusion as to what the conversation is about and also maybe they are not interested in the conversation to begin with. We will give you some examples of survivors staying on topic from our TBI Voices project from some of the traumatic brain injury individuals that we have interviewed.\nOur first example of a survivor of staying on topic comes from our interview with Betty. Betty was a college student at the time of her accident that caused her to suffer a brain injury. The fellow student she was traveling with had been drinking before she came to pick up Betty to travel to the friends parents house for Thanksgiving. Betty really had her heart set on just staying at the college for the holiday but her friends brother had been in a terrible motorcycle accident and was in pretty bad shape. She agreed to travel to her friends home for moral support over the break. The accident left her in a coma and with many brain injury deficits, one being having trouble staying on topic during a conversation. Betty expresses; \u201c\u201cI seem to jump from topic to topic. I\u2019m sitting with a couple people and they\u2019re talking about how one time that they had gone on a trip and they lost their luggage all of a sudden I\u2019ll click in and I\u2019ll say oh well I went to college in New Orleans and I flew down there a couple times I just I mean, it has nothing to do with what they started talking about and then they look at each other as if to say okay why did she just do that. Because they had been talking about one thing and I inappropriately at times also change subjects and say things that are not appropriate.\u201d To read Betty\u2019s entire story click here.\nAnother example come from our interview with Michael. Michael was also a college student at the time he was in a head-on collision that put him in a coma and caused him to suffer a traumatic brain injury. He was also on a break from school and returned home to be with his family and friends. While out socializing with his friends and being the designated driver, a car crossed the center line and hit him head on. One of the deficits he has trouble with is staying on topic while having a conversation. Part of his problem will be forgetting what the conversation is about and sometimes even forgetting who he is talking to. In his own words; \u201c\u201cMemory is much better. It\u2019s kind of funny. Say if you and I were just talking and say outside somewhere, there\u2019s a pretty good chance two things could happen; one would be we would be having a good conversation and all of a sudden I forget what we\u2019re talking about, that one\u2019s not the bad one because I usually just ask. But the other one is rather hard because I\u2019ll forget who you are. I\u2019ll be like okay, what is his name, what is his name, and I feel really embarrassed to ask you. I have no problem asking you what we were talking about but I find it very embarrassing to ask who you are.\u201d To read Michael\u2019s entire story click here.\nIt stands to reason that someone who has suffered a traumatic brain injury would have trouble staying on topic while having conversations because of the other deficits they suffer from.\nNext Time Management",

        "raw_content": "Clifton College Nursery leads the way with a child-centred approach and access to first class College facilities\nClifton College Nursery is leading the way with a more flexible approach to nursery life for children from 2 years old. Staff encourage children of different ages to play and learn together and promote this integration and the use of the whole nursery, as an important aspect of daily life.\nChildren are welcomed into different rooms, rather than being constrained by them. Clifton College Nursery is located in a large Victorian house, on the edge of Clifton village; the space allows flexibility and freedom of movement for all the children.\nThe location in the heart of the school means the nursery is also uniquely placed to take advantage of the full range of facilities on offer at Clifton College, as well as those within Clifton and Bristol as a whole.\nThe Nursery children can enjoy performances and \u2018tread the boards\u2019 at the Redgrave Theatre, get muddy in Forest School, choose from thousands of books in their own library and be creative in the music room.\nDirect access to specialist teachers and facilities from a young age, enables the children to develop new skills and gain confidence in a fun and supportive environment.\nWithin the wider context of the vibrant, dynamic and award-winning city of Bristol, not only is Bristol Zoo their back garden, the children can visit the Suspension Bridge, the aquarium, a wealth of museums, SS Great Britain and enjoy a host of other activities.\nLucy Bird, Early Years Coordinator explained \u201cHere at Clifton, by offering a whole house approach, children are exposed to a variety of abilities, interests and experiences from different age groups, which provide valuable opportunities for children to learn from each other.\n\u201cWe have created a real sense of community within the nursery, encouraging independence and curiosity whilst still having the security and familiarity of being a valued part of our nursery.\u201d\nThe flexible Clifton model for year-round childcare support for 2-5 year olds is very popular with parents. Instead of paying for 52 weeks of childcare \u2013 standard for most day-care providers \u2013 they offer a dual pace approach of combining term-time care with flexible holiday club provision.\nParents are hugely supportive of the care offered at Clifton. One parent explains: \u201cI have seen a real increase in the development of my son\u2019s independence and confidence since he started at Clifton College Nursery. He loves playing with his friends and gains so much from having freedom to explore.\n\u201cThe access to aspirational facilities within the nursery and around the college means the nursery offers exceptional value for money. But most importantly, at the end of the day, he always has a huge smile on his face when I pick him up.\u201d\nClifton College Nursery Open Morning is on Saturday 3rd February 2018 9.30am \u2013 12 noon.\nFor more information please visit www.cliftoncollege.com.\nTags: Bristol, children, Clifton College, mum, nursery, pre-school\n\u2190 Clubbing in the Crypt: Free Dancing Fun for Families on 15th February\nFairfield High School Student Announced Double Winner In Bristol Post\u2019s Gold Star Awards \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Hungary to spend a lot of money on Paks 2 in 2016\nPermalink: https://goo.gl/QDLSWt\nThe registered capital of Paks 2 Zrt., the company responsible for organizing the construction of two new nuclear reactors at the Paks atomic energy plant, is to be increased by HUF 113 billion (USD 418 million) next year according to the 2016 budget.\nAt his weekly press conference on Thursday Chancellor J\u00e1nos L\u00e1z\u00e1r announced that Hungary would begin drawing down on the EUR 10 billion loan from Russia in 2016. When asked by daily news portal nol.hu why it was necessary for the company to spend HUF 28 billion (USD 104 million) on the project in 2015, the Chancellor did not give a clear answer.\nThe news portal points out that government commissioner Attila Asz\u00f3di told the parliamentary technical committee last week that the permit for the site would not be ready until the end of 2017, and that the construction would not start before 2018. For this reason, nol.hu does not believe the project could cost hundreds of billions of forints in 2016.\nThe Chancellor said the project included the cost of building a new bridge across the Danube at Kalocsa so that contractors can quickly access the construction site from the other side of the river. However, nol.hu points out that there are already bridges above and below Paks at Dunaf\u00f6ldv\u00e1r and Szeksz\u00e1rd, respectively, the latter of which is hardly used. While some seven thousand people are projected to work on the project during the construction, once completed there will hardly be any traffic between Paks and Kalocsa, the left-wing daily observes.\nThe Chancellor also mentioned that Tam\u00e1s B\u00e1n (pictured) had been chosen to replace S\u00e1ndor Nagy as Paks 2 Zrt. CEO. Whereas Nagy was clearly qualified for the position, B\u00e1n does not appear to be qualified, writes nol.hu A lawyer by training, B\u00e1n has worked as a secretary for the president of the Constitutional Court, as a judge for the Pest Central District court, as a state bank supervisor, at the Paks atomic energy plant, at K\u00e9sz Holding and at Sandor Demj\u00e1n\u2019s P\u00f3lus Holding. By contrast his predecessor was a mechanical engineer by training who had risen up though the ranks of the atomic energy hierarchy.\nNol.hu reports that B\u00e1n is a loyal Fidesz cadre (which we take to mean that he will do what he\u2019s told and keep his mouth shut.-ed.).\nL\u00e1z\u00e1r confirmed that the government had engaged an international headhunter to recruit three new top managers for Paksi Atomer\u0151m\u0171 Zrt. responsible for marketing Hungary\u2019s clean electricity abroad and decreasing the costs of its production.\nhttp://nol.hu/belfold/szazmilliardot-csengetunk-ki-a-semmiert-es-azt-sem-tudjuk-kinek-1534053\nWhy doesn't Viktor Orb\u00e1n want to spend money on education and healthcare in Hungary?

All four Democratic Coalition MPs absented themselves from the vote.\nThe 2013 election law, passed by the Fidesz-Christian Democratic People\u2019s Party supermajority, made it extremely easy to run for parliament because a candidate needed to gather only 500 signatures in their constituency as voters could recommend multiple candidates. Political parties and movements needed candidates in only 27 electoral districts, in at least nine counties and Budapest to be able to run a national party list and qualify for state campaign funds of between HUF 149.25 million (USD 561,000) and HUF 597 million (USD 2.24 million), the latter for parties running candidates in all 106 electoral districts.\nThe 2014 elections were contested by some 16 parties, a record in Hungary\u2019s electoral history. After the elections, it turned out that many parties and movements had submitted fake signatures and recommendations in order to be able to run candidates. Investigations into the actions of these fake parties were all terminated without an indictment.\nAccording to the new modification of the law, those parties whose national list receives less than one percent of votes in a general election will have to pay back the funds they received from the central budget. Henceforth, parties that withdraw their candidates, whose candidates step back, or whose list of candidates is disqualified by the National Election Office, will be legally obligated to return the state campaign funds. In the event a party incurs such an obligation, then members of its leading body will be severally and collectively responsible for repaying the debt.\nAccording to the law, parties will have to name the members of their respective leading body before receiving the actual campaign funds. Based on the law, once the parties submit their national list, their selected leaders will be personally responsible. Even presidium members withdrawing from elections or quitting the party will be personally liable.\nUnder the law, the State Audit Office (\u00c1SZ) will inspect the expenditures of those parties that manage to receive at least one percent of votes cast. However, the current law does not specify what information such parties must submit to state auditors.\nIn 2014, 12 such parties running national party lists received less than one percent of votes cast. As of September 2017, there are 222 registered parties in Hungary and another 177 are currently under registration.\nNGO umbrella group does not support Momentum's campaign for referendum on NGO law \u00bb\n\u00ab Appeals court ruling on Ahmed H deemed unlawful by Curia\nTags: 2018 election2018 electionselection lawFidesz",

Their results came back positive for the BRCA 1 genetic mutation.\nThroughout Emily\u2019s adult life, she had been having regular mammograms. Finally, she decided to have an MRI. Within a week of having the MRI, she found out that she had breast cancer.\nThroughout The Fight\nEmily found out that she had breast cancer through the phone. She went into immediate panic mode and left work. Emily and her mother shared moments of despair throughout the diagnosis.\nEmily goes on to say that while her mother felt guilty because she had the gene, Emily could not be any more grateful for her mom.\nDuring Emily\u2019s battle with breast cancer, she was surrounded by an incredible support group. In addition, she did research about breast cancer and her husband took notes at all of her doctor\u2019s visits to stay organized.\nOne of Emily\u2019s biggest regrets is not starting Burn Boot Camp sooner. She was hesitant that the workout would be too intense, but everything can be modified and getting stronger can help keep your body healthy. Exercise can be a preventive measure for cancer!\nHer advice for someone who is newly diagnosed is to ask questions. Be diligent about your health. She also advises that you maintain good health through nutrition and exercise.\nIf you have any family history of breast cancer, research more information about possible links to cancer. By educating yourself, you can take proactive measures.\nFinally, to all other survivors, she says to be the village to your friends and your community. It\u2019s important to listen and give advice. Knowing that someone has a person to love, to pray and to help them can mean the world.",

        "raw_content": "3 CAFAM events upcoming\nThree exciting CAFAM events are coming up: Wednesday, May 29, Sunday, June 9, and Sunday, June 23.\nFIRST: Next Wednesday, May 29, the exhibition of photographs \u201cChina: Exploring the Interior, 1903-04\u201d will formally open. It\u2019s in the Great Reading Room of the Glickman Library on USM\u2019s Portland campus. These photographs of north China and the Yangzi River were taken by the topographer R. Harvey Sargent. Refreshments will be enjoyed, as Bob explains how these pictures came to be taken, preserved, and transformed into an educational exhibit. For more, read on.\nSECOND: Sunday, June 9, CAFAM members and friends will do an excursion to the annual Boston Dragon Boat Festival, actually on the Cambridge side of the Charles River. We will \u201cTake the A Train\u201d (actually Amtrack), leaving Portland at 8:00 am. It\u2019s a wonderful celebration for the whole family. For more, read on.\nTHIRD: on Sunday June 23, 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, CAFAM holds its annual potluck Picnic in the Park, at which time we also elect a new board for the coming year. It\u2019s at gorgeous Winslow Park in Freeport. For more, read on.\nTHE PHOTOGRAPHIC EXHIBITION:\nA young topographer and Maine native named R. Harvey Sargent signed on to be part of a Carnegie Institute scientific expedition into northern interior China in 1903. The mission\u2019s purpose was to search for a specific trilobite fossil. The intent was also to carefully map the remote areas traveled. This was to be Sargent\u2019s duty.\nAlong the way he took personal snapshots. Those remarkable photographs and his diary and other related materials were carefully preserved by his family. Bob Sargent, R. Harvey\u2019s grandson has turned these materials into an exhibit entitled \u201cCHINA: Exploring the Interior, 1903-04.\u201d They document the life and environment of the people of rural north China during a troubled period in the country\u2019s history.\nA selection of these beautifully printed and framed images, plus collateral material, including the published geological findings, Sargent\u2019s journal, a map of the expedition\u2019s route, and other memorabilia, comprise the exhibit.\nIt will be up in the Great Reading Room on the seventh floor of the Glickman Library at USM from May 29 to August 23, 2013.\nOn Wednesday, May 29 at 5:30 pm, the exhibit will formally open with a reception and remarks by Bob Sargent about the nature and significance of these materials.\nLight refreshments and dumplings will be served. The event is, of course, free and open to the public.\nTHE DRAGON BOAT RACES\nBoston\u2019s famous Dragon Boat Festival will happen this year on Sunday, June 9th.\nSpectators will cheer brightly colored dragon boats, crewed by forty teams from Boston, and many other cities and states. They will compete in various medal classes and special races. Races continue from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.\nCultural programs begin at 12 Noon in the Main Tent on the Charles River shore (Cambridge side). All programs are free and family friendly. They include a Dragon Dance, Chinese Kung Fu, traditional Korean dance, traditional Philippines dance, Chinese dance and music and traditional Japanese drumming, and many more. There are also hands-on Chinese arts and crafts in the Main Tent. Asian foods (and various other vendors) will be available along Memorial Drive.\nAt the inspiration of Gary Libby, CAFAM is organizing a group event to take in this wonderful event. We will take the Amtrack Downeaster to North Station and then, variously according to taste, share cabs or take the \u201cT\u201d to the Cambridge side of the Charles River at Memorial Drive. (The nearest \u201cT\u201d station is Harvard Square.)\nThe train leaves the Portland Transportation Center at 8:00 a.m. The return train leaves Boston at 5:00 p.m. There is also a later train leaving at 8:00 p.m.\nFare for one adult is $50.00 round trip, $75 for two adults round trip. Two children can ride free with each fare paying adult. Seniors (over 62) ride for $25.00 round trip. All adults MUST present a valid picture identification.\nWe will be arriving just as many activities are getting under way. There is a noon \u201ceye dotting\u201d ceremony for the boats, accompanied by Chinese drumming. The dragon boat races begin continue until 5:00 p.m. As mentioned, there will be Asian food for sale, Asian arts and crafts and cultural performances. A dragon dance will begin at 12:15 p.m. and the opening ceremony at 12:45.\nPeople will need to budget enough time to get back to North Station the 5:00 p.m. train home.\nOn Sunday, June 23, CAFAM will hold its TWENTY-FIFTH annual Summer Potluck and Meeting. Last year we found the ideal spot for the meeting. It\u2019s beautiful Winslow Park in Freeport. What more could you ask for: We have reserved a shelter. There are grills, picnic tables, acres of lawn, a pretty little beach, horseshoe spikes, volleyball net, and more. If you haven\u2019t been there, you\u2019re in for a treat.\nWe will gather around 11:00. Everyone bring a dish to share: Chinese, Western, Whatever. CAFAM will supply drinks, plates, cups, knives and forks.\nNote that the park does not permit alcohol\nAfter some hellos, some food, some dessert, some laughs, we will hold a brief meeting at which we elect our CAFAM Board of Directors for the coming year.\nPrevious Chinese Brush Painting and Calligraphy Show Next Sargent Exhibition Opening",

But this is the first time there has been a place where (gays and lesbians) can receive specific primary care.\" Modern Healthcare notes that Dr. Joseph DeFoto, one of the participating physicians, said the \"need for gay and lesbian primary care is apparently so great that more than 400 potential patients have inquired about Lambda.\" He said the new group \"will allow us to address some of the overlooked problems in the community,\" such as stressing the importance of regular gynecological exams, which lesbians \"often skip.\" Lorri Jean, executive director at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center, \"said some individual physicians target their practices at gays and lesbians, but most limit their practices to plastic surgery or treatment of AIDS patients.\" And the majority of those doctors \"often accept only cash or indemnity coverage and participate in few managed care plans.\" Jean estimated that Lambda would \"treat 1,500 patients in the first year and 4,500 within three years,\" and that more doctors would join the group. Jean also said the group would also treat heterosexuals, estimating they would comprise 15% of their patient population (Shinkman, 10/5 issue).",

        "raw_content": "Author: J.C. McKeown\nThere are few disciplines as exciting and forward-looking as medicine. Unfortunately, however, many modern practitioners have lost sight of the origins of their discipline. A Cabinet of Ancient Medical Curiosities aspires to cure this lapse by taking readers back to the early days of Western medicine in ancient Greece and Rome. Quoting the actual words of ancient authors, often from texts which have never before been translated into English, J. C. McKeown offers a fascinating glimpse at the origins of surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, pharmacology, diet and nutrition, and many other fields of medicine.\nLike its companion volume, A Cabinet of Roman Curiosities, this is an uproarious miscellany of odd stories and facts, culled from a lifetime of teaching ancient Greek civilization. In some ways, the book demonstrates how much the Greeks were like us. Politicians were regarded as shallow and self-serving; overweight people resorted to implausible diets; Socrates and the king of Sparta used to entertain their children by riding around on a stick pretending it was a horse. Of course, their differences from us are abundantly documented too and the book may leave readers with a few incredulous questions.\nHere is a whimsical and captivating collection of odd facts, strange beliefs, outlandish opinions, and other highly amusing trivia of the ancient Romans. We tend to think of the Romans as a pragmatic people with a ruthlessly efficient army, an exemplary legal system, and a precise and elegant language. A Cabinet of Roman Curiosities shows that the Romans were equally capable of bizarre superstitions, logic-defying customs, and often hilariously derisive views of their fellow Romans and non-Romans.\nA Companion to Euripides\nEditor: Laura McClure\nA Companion to Euripides is an up-to-date, centralized assessment of Euripides and his work, drawing from the most recently published texts, commentaries, and scholarship, and offering detailed discussions and provocative interpretations of his extant plays and fragments.\nThe most contemporary scholarship on Euripides and his oeuvre, featuring the latest texts and commentaries\nLeading scholars in the field discuss all of Euripides\u2019 plays and their afterlife with breadth and depth\nA dedicated section focuses on the reception of Euripidean drama since the Hellenistic\nOriginal and provocative interpretations of Euripides and his plays forge important paths for future scholarship\nClassical Latin: An Introductory Course\nExtensively field-tested and fine-tuned over many years, and designed specifically for a one-year course, JC McKeown's Classical Latin: An Introductory Course offers a thorough, fascinating, and playful grounding in Latin that combines the traditional grammatical method with the reading approach.\nIn addition to grammar, paradigms, and readings, each chapter includes a variety of extraordinarily well-crafted exercises that reinforce the grammar and morphology while encouraging the joy of linguistic and cultural discovery.\nCourtesans at Table: Gender and Greek Literary Culture in Athenaeus\nAuthor: Laura McClure\nWitty nicknames, crude jokes, public nudity and lavish monuments - all of these things distinguished Greek courtesans from respectable citizen women in ancient Greece. Although prostitutes appear as early as archaic Greek lyric poetry, our fullest accounts come from the late 2nd century CE. Drawing on Book 13 of the Athenaeus' \"Deipnosophistae\", which contains almost all known references to Hetaeras from all periods of Greek literature, Laura K. McClure has created a window onto the ways ancient Greeks perceived the courtesan and the role of the courtesan in Greek life.\nElmer Rice: A Research and Production Sourcebook\nAuthor: Michael Vanden Heuvel\nAs one of the most outstanding and innovative playwrights of the 20th century, Elmer Rice made and sustained his reputation with a series of hit plays and provocative experimental work which, next to the output of Eugene O'Neill, remains the most varied canon of theatrical writing produced by an American dramatist. This reference book overviews his life and career and provides plot synopses and critical commentaries for his plays. The volume also provides cast and credit lists for major productions and an exhaustive bibliography of primary and secondary materials.\nEpigraphy, Philology, and the Hebrew Bible\nEditors: Jeremy Hutton and Aaron D. Rubin\nColleagues and former students honor Professor Jo Ann Hackett in this collection of essays focused on her interests in Northwest Semitic languages, epigraphy, and Canaanite religions of the Iron Age. Each section offers subject-specific chapters reflecting on methodology, while at the same time seeking to build connections between these three disciplines. Each contribution exemplifies the unifying theme of the collection: the continuing value and necessity of philological and comparative study of the Hebrew Bible. The contributors are Jason A. Bembry, Catherine E. Bonesho, Dexter E. Callender Jr., F. W. Dobbs-Allsopp, John L. Ellison, Steven E. Fassberg, Nathaniel E. Greene, Gordon J. Hamilton, Mark W. Hamilton, John Huehnergard, Jeremy M. Hutton, Susan Niditch, Heather Dana Davis Parker, Na\u2018ama Pat-El, Gary A. Rendsburg, Christopher A. Rollston, Aaron D. Rubin, Jacqueline Vayntrub, and Aren Wilson-Wright.\nView pubilisher's website.\nLearning Latin and Greek from Antiquity to the Present\nEditors: Elizabeth P. Archibald, William Brockliss, Jonathan Gnoza\nThis volume provides a unique overview of the broad historical, geographical and social range of Latin and Greek assecond languages. It elucidates the techniques of Latin and Greek instruction across time and place, and the contrasting socio-political circumstances that contributed to and resulted from this remarkably enduring field of study. Providing a counterweight to previous studies that have focused only on the experience of elite learners, the chapters explore dialogues between center and periphery, between pedagogical conservatism and societal change, between government and the governed. In addition, a number of chapters address the experience of female learners, who have often been excluded from or marginalized by earlier scholarship.",

        "raw_content": "Gazing at Infinity\nWatching the honeybee is like experiencing firsthand infinity. For no sooner than we have come to understand some marvelous aspect of her, than we discover more questions and answers.\nThe oldest known depiction of humans and bees interacting date back to cave paintings discovered in Spider Cave near Valencia, Spain. Here is a painting of what appears to be a completely unprotected person, reaching into a hive in a tree, foraging honey. She holds a vessel, or perhaps a smoker. Around her the bees fly in the air. Eight thousand years ago people knew bees and created art to record their experience.\nCultivation may have started around four thousand years ago in Persia. The Greeks were cultivating bees during the time of Aristotle almost twenty four hundred years ago. He refers to bees as one of the agricultural activities at the time. Aristotle seemed to know bees well. in The Politic, he use their social behaviour as evidence to his argument that social structure is a natural phenomenon. This has profound philosophical and practical implications. If there truly is a natural origin to social behaviour, then we would do well to understand it. Social physics may constrain the creativity of man in the application of social ideas of human origin. It points to an existence of truth in social organization. Aristotle proceeds to outlay what he views as natural social structure in humans. At the center, he places the family, with a man, a woman, and children. His conviction to this ideal can be tied to this notion of natural social structure and the honeybee.\nVirgil was writing poetry about bees over two thousand years ago. He also compares the organizational and social behaviours of bees to humans, and observes some apparent troubling deficiencies. These deficiencies remain today, and present themselves to anyone who takes the time to look beyond the superficial harmony at the sacrifices of the individuals. European paintings can be found since depicting clothing worn, and old skep basket hives. Bees are even found in religious symbology and architecture. An omen of prosperity, the relationship between bees and flowers and man was felt, if not rationally understood.\nIt is truly awe inspiring to think of eight thousand years of collective enchantment of man with the honeybee. The parallels to our own life. The unraveling of the sophistication of their social organization. All of these experiences, and the all of the scientific knowledge gained collectively over millennia ignites the imagination. And yet, each year, some important new discovery is made. Is there no end to the sophistication and intricacy of these creatures. It make you marvel, if we cannot understand the simple honeybee in eight thousand years, how many years are necessary to understand our own human society?\nThese observations we experience as we watch our bee in the flowers, our most common encounter with these creatures. But the bee cannot be fully understood in the flowers alone. We must follow them home. Our discovery is a journey without end.\nThis entry was posted in: Bees & Honey\nPrevious PostThe Color of Honey\nNext PostDistinguished scents",

        "raw_content": "Hi, I am originally from Cape Town, South Africa and have been living in the UK for the past 15years. I have been working as a personal trainer and sports coach for the past 20 years and have enjoyed participating in a range of sports from running, cycling and body-building. My goals for the future is to graduate as a G2 in Krav and compete in the World Masters Athletics (800m) in 2 years time. I believe learning new skills and adapting to life is what keeps us motivated and young. My personal motto is: Forever young!\nBack in 2011, I went through a phase of total demotivation and depression. I had achieved most things that I set out for myself and did not know what to do. In 2015, I was informed by a friend of mine about Krav. I knew I had to do something about the way my life was going and Krav sounded like the right thing. I loved the idea of training with others, having a coach, learning a new skill and getting fit.\nMy journey into Krav started with a google search. I checked out a few places, read the rules and the grading methods and decided to book my trial. I attended my trial session in the summer of 2016 and although it was hard to grasp the techniques, I thoroughly enjoyed the session. Everyone was so supportive and understanding. I signed up the next day and now I am a P1 level.\nIn the past year, my motivation has increased to levels when I was competitive in the past. I am running again and using some of the fitness training methods learnt in Krav to improve my overall conditioning and physique. I am also using some of the methods in my own business.\nIn the past year my fitness has certainly improved and my physique is undergoing some positive changes. I know I need to keep training outside of my normal Wednesday sessions if I want to get to a higher grading. My progression is long term based and for life\u2026\nI love the fact that Carpe Diem feels like a family. Everyone is so eager to help make you a better person. There is no judgement and you are allowed space to develop and grow.",

        "raw_content": "BRYANT v. The Estate of Steven C. Adams, et al., Defendants.\nDave BRYANT, Vikki Bryant, Plaintiffs-Appellees, v. COMMUNITY BANKSHARES, INC., Defendant-Appellant, The Estate of Steven C. Adams, et al., Defendants.\nBefore WILLIAM PRYOR, MARTIN and JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judges. Stephen D. Wadsworth, Andrew P. Campbell, Campbell Guin, LLC, Birmingham, AL, Christina Diane Crow, Lynn Wilson Jinks, III, Jinks Crow & Dickson, PC, Union Springs, AL, Caroline Smith Gidiere, Attorney at Law, Birmingham, AL, for Plaintiffs-Appellees Stephen E. Hudson, Thomas H. Christopher, Ava J. Conger, Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton, LLP, Atlanta, GA, for Defendant-Appellant\nCommunity Bankshares Inc., appeals the summary judgment in favor of and the award of prejudgment interest to Dave and Vikki Bryant on their complaint to enforce their rights to the distribution and redemption of stock in an employee stock ownership plan maintained by Bankshares. The district court ruled that the plan administrator acted arbitrarily and capriciously by disregarding \u201cspecific and mandatory provisions of the plan\u201d that required Bankshares to honor the Bryants\u2019 elections to diversify. We affirm.\nBankshares served as the holding company for several banks, including Community Bank & Trust in Union Springs, Alabama, where the Bryants worked. Dave served as the president of the bank, its chief executive officer, and the vice chairperson of its board, and he and his wife, Vikki, participated in the employee stock ownership plan.\nThe written plan document defined the role of the plan administrator. Paragraph 8.4 required the plan administrator to act \u201cin accordance with the Plan and consistent with the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA Title I[.]\u201d Paragraph 7.5 gave the plan administrator \u201cduties and powers as may be necessary to discharge its duties,\u201d which included the rights \u201cto construe and interpret the Plan, decide all questions of eligibility and determine the amount, manner and time of payment of any benefits.\u201d Paragraph 7.5 also stated that \u201c[t]he plan administrator shall have no power to add to, subtract from or modify any of the terms of[,] \u2024 to change or add to any benefits provided by \u2024, or to waive or fail to apply any requirements of eligibility for a benefit under the Plan.\u201d\nThe written plan document entitled employees, like the Bryants, who participated in the plan for ten years and were at least 55 years old to diversify part of the company stock in their individual plan accounts. Paragraph 8.3 of the written plan stated that \u201celigible Participant[s] shall, during any Qualified Election Period, be permitted to diversify the investment of a portion of [their] Employer Contribution Account[s].\u201d Consistent with the plan, in February 2009 Bankshares mailed the Bryants written notices on which they could elect, by April 15, 2009, to diversify their plan accounts. The election forms stated that the Bryants\u2019 elections would \u201cbe implemented no later than June 30, 2009.\u201d\nThe Bryants elected to have part of their plan accounts transferred to their individual retirement accounts. As provided in paragraph 8.3 of the plan, Vikki \u201celect[ed] \u2024 to diversify the investment of twenty-five percent \u2024 of [her] Account in the Plan, determined as of the Annual Valuation Date for the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year in which such election is made[.]\u201d And \u201cin [Dave\u2019s] case \u2024 [because] the election year \u2024 [was his] last such election, [he was allowed to diversify] fifty percent (50%)\u201d of his account. Paragraph 1.36 identified the \u201cannual valuation date\u201d as \u201cDecember 31 of each Plan Year.\u201d\nAs of December 31, 2008, the value of Bankshares stock was $11 per share. At the time of election, Vikki\u2019s account had 880.205842 shares valued at $9,682.26 and $1,704.12 in cash. Dave\u2019s account had 9,197.930607 shares valued at $101,177.24 and $8,946.30 in cash.\nThe Bryants\u2019 elections entitled them to receive shares of company stock that they could \u201cput to the Company and the Plan\u201d to redeem. Paragraph 8.3 of the plan stated that, after a participant \u201cdirect[ed] the Plan Administrator to distribute (or transfer to an Individual Retirement Account or another qualified retirement plan) shares of Company Stock \u2024 equal to that portion of the Participant\u2019s \u2024 Account that is covered by the election,\u201d the \u201ctransfer or distribution shall be made no later than ninety (90) days after the last day of the Qualified Election Period during which such Participant directed such investment.\u201d Under paragraph 5.8, \u201c[a]ny Participant \u2024 receiving a distribution of Company Stock from the Plan \u2024 shall have a \u2018put option\u2019 on such shares, giving him the right to have the Company purchase such shares\u201d at a price equaling \u201cthe fair market value as of the Annual Valuation Date which precedes the date the put option is exercised.\u201d The plan also had \u201cthe opportunity\u201d to \u201cassume[\u2009] the rights and obligations of the Company under the put option.\u201d The plan stated that the company \u201cshall \u2024 [c]los[e] \u2024 the sale \u2024 within thirty (30) days after the put option is exercised.\u201d\nBankshares was struggling financially, which reduced the value of its stock. Bankshares entered into an agreement effective September 16, 2009, in which it agreed to refrain from purchasing or redeeming its stock without the consent of the Federal Reserve Bank and the Bank Commissioner. In October 2009, Bankshares obtained a special valuation of its stock. An independent appraiser valued Bankshares stock at $2.30 per share as of September 30, 2009.\nOn November 2, 2009, Bankshares informed its plan participants about its written agreement with the Federal Reserve. Bankshares stated that it lacked \u201ccash, or the ability to raise additional cash, to implement fairly participants\u2019 diversification elections\u201d and that participants had the right to change or retain their earlier elections to diversify. If Bankshares \u201chonor[ed]\u201d an election to diversify, it warned that it would distribute shares of common stock, the plan would not offer a put option until the Federal Reserve lifted the restriction on redemption, the price for redemption would be the \u201cfair market value at that time and in accordance with such rules as the Plan Administrator may establish,\u201d and the stock distribution would be a taxable event. Bankshares sent plan participants a revised election form, which was a copy of its original election form with a line drawn through its February 2009 date and above which was written \u201c11-30-09.\u201d\nThe Bryants submitted revised election forms that requested their shares remain invested in the plan. As of December 31, 2009, the value of Bankshares stock had dropped to $0.15 per share. In January 2010, the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance closed a bank held by Bankshares and named the Federal Deposit Insurance Company as receiver.\nIn June 2011, the Bryants received a distribution of the cash in their accounts. Vikki received $1,667.31 and Dave received $8,806.53. In 2012, the board of directors for Bankshares became the plan administrator and voted to terminate the plan, but as of May 28, 2016, the plan had yet to terminate.\nIn March 2014, the Bryants demanded payments from Bankshares that equaled 50 percent of the value of Dave\u2019s account and 25 percent of the value of Vikki\u2019s account, but the plan administrator denied the Bryants\u2019 demands. The plan administrator responded that Bankshares had been fiscally incapable of honoring the Bryants\u2019 elections to diversify and that they had \u201crevoked\u201d their initial requests by electing to leave their shares in the plan. The denial letters stated,\nOrdinarily, the Plan Administrator would have been obligated to implement [the Bryants\u2019] April 2009 Diversification Request[s] on or before June 30, 2009. At the time, however, [Bankshares] stock had dramatically declined in value \u2024, and [Bankshares] financial situation was deteriorating further. [Bankshares] knew that the value would continue to decrease (and indeed, [it] fell to just $2.30 by November 2009). If the stock had been transferred to IRA[s], [Bankshares] was not in a position to honor the put option to repurchase the stock, nor did [Bankshares] have a good valuation for the stock since it was declining so rapidly in value. The Plan also could not distribute cash \u2024 for the value of stock because that would have had an adverse effect on other Plan participants. [Bankshares] decided to suspend all diversification requests until it could develop a plan that would be fair and equitable to all Plan participants. [Bankshares] had a fiduciary responsibility to act for the benefit of all participants and could not honor diversification elections to the detriment of other Plan participants. As a result, [Bankshares] properly concluded that it could not grant [the Bryants\u2019] April 2009 Diversification Request[s].\n[The Bryants\u2019] Claim[s] [are] also denied because [they] ultimately elected for [their] share[s] to remain invested in the Plan. In [their] November 2009 Diversification Request[s], [the Bryants] voluntarily elected for [their] share[s] to remain invested in the Plan. [The Bryants] could have directed the Plan to transfer [their] share[s] to an IRA and the Plan would have done so\u2024 [The Bryants\u2019] November 2009 Diversification Request[s] revoked [their] April 2009 Diversification Request[s] and rendered [them] null and void. There [are] no outstanding request[s] by [the Bryants].\nThe Bryants filed an administrative appeal, which Bankshares denied. Bankshares stated that its actions were governed by section 8.4 of the Plan and federal law, 29 U.S.C. \u00a7\u20021104(a)(1)(A), which imposed on it a fiduciary \u201cduty to act for the benefit of all Plan participants,\u201d and that it had determined a \u201cpayment for units in the \u2024 stock fund \u2024 would have had an adverse effect on the other Plan participants.\u201d Bankshares disclaimed \u201cbreach[ing] \u2024 the Plan because [it] was acting in the best interest of all the Plan beneficiaries when it declined to honor [the Bryants\u2019] April 2009 diversification request[s].\u201d Bankshares also stated that \u201cthere [was] no outstanding diversification request[s] by\u201d the Bryants because they had responded to the November 2009 letter by \u201cvoluntarily electing for [their] shares to remain in the Plan and \u2024 revok[ing]\u201d their earlier election, which \u201cnullified and voided their April 2009 diversification request[s].\u201d\nThe Bryants sued Bankshares, its plan administrators, and its trustees to enforce their rights as plan participants, for breach of fiduciary duties, and for attorney\u2019s fees. Bankshares answered that it acted consistent with the written plan document \u201cand in the interests of all participants and beneficiaries of the Plan.\u201d Both parties moved for summary judgment.\nThe district court denied the motion filed by Bankshares and granted in part and denied in part the Bryants\u2019 motion. The district court entered an order granting an injunction that enforced the Bryants\u2019 rights to diversify, to obtain shares of company stock equaling the part of their accounts covered by the election, and to redeem the stock based on \u201cthe December 31, 2008 annual valuation.\u201d The district court rejected, for failure to \u201csurvive review under the arbitrary-and-capricious standard,\u201d the arguments of Bankshares that it lacked an accurate valuation of stock, it was incapable of redeeming stock issued to plan participants, and the plan could refuse to redeem stock because that was detrimental to other plan participants. The reasons Bankshares proffered, the district court stated, \u201cconflict[ed] with the clear, specific, and mandatory terms of the Plan governing stock valuation, a participant\u2019s right to make a diversification election, and a participant\u2019s right to exercise a put option on distributed shares[,]\u201d and conflicted with \u201cthe Plan administrator[\u2019s] \u2024 written communications to eligible participants [and] to the Bryants\u2024\u201d The district court also rejected as \u201c[un]reasonable\u201d the decision to treat \u201cthe Bryants\u2019 November 2009 diversification elections \u2024 [as] waivers of their\u201d original elections due to their lack of a choice in losing their put option; their lack of information that they \u201cwere releasing any rights under the Plan\u201d; the failure to advise them of the need to consult with counsel before changing their election; and the absence of a benefit for making a different election. The district court denied the Bryants\u2019 claims for breach of fiduciary duties and for attorney\u2019s fees.\nThe district court awarded the Bryants prejudgment interest as compensation \u201cfor their losses \u2024 and [to] ensure that the Plan administrator does not obtain \u2018a windfall as a result of its wrongdoing.\u2019\u2009\u201d The district court \u201cf[ound] that [a] prejudgment interest rate of 1.5% [per month (18% annually)\u2009], by reference to [Alabama Code] \u00a7\u200227-1-17(c), [was] appropriate \u2024 [based on] the wrongful denial of pension benefits under ERISA.\u201d And the district court decided to accrue interest beginning on March 12, 2014, when the Bryants demanded payment from Bankshares for \u201cbreach[ing] its contractual obligation to diversify [their] accounts.\u201d\nII.\u2003STANDARDS OF REVIEW\nWe apply three standards of review in this appeal. We review de novo a summary judgment. Alexandra H. v. Oxford Health Ins. Inc. Freedom Access Plan, 833 F.3d 1299, 1306 (11th Cir. 2016). We also review de novo the decision to \u201caffirm[\u2009] or revers[e] a plan administrator\u2019s ERISA benefits decision, applying the same legal standards that governed the district court\u2019s decision.\u201d Id. (quoting Blankenship v. Metro. Life Ins. Co., 644 F.3d 1350, 1354 (11th Cir. 2011)\u2009). To the extent an employee \u201cbenefit plan gives the administrator or fiduciary discretionary authority to determine eligibility for benefits or to construe the terms of the plan,\u201d that determination is reviewed \u201cunder the arbitrary and capricious standard.\u201d Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. v. Bruch, 489 U.S. 101, 114, 115, 109 S.Ct. 948, 103 L.Ed.2d 80 (1989). \u201cThe award of an amount of prejudgment interest in an ERISA case is a matter committed to the sound discretion of the trial court.\u201d Florence Nightingale Nursing Serv., Inc. v. Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Ala., 41 F.3d 1476, 1484 (11th Cir. 1995) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).\nIII.\u2003DISCUSSION\nThe Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 requires that \u201c[e]very employee benefit plan shall be established and maintained pursuant to a written instrument,\u201d 29 U.S.C. \u00a7\u20021102(a)(1), which serves at least two important purposes. First, a written plan enables an employee to determine \u201cexactly what his rights and obligations are under the plan.\u201d Curtiss-Wright Corp. v. Schoonejongen, 514 U.S. 73, 83, 115 S.Ct. 1223, 131 L.Ed.2d 94 (1995) (quoting H.R.Rep. No. 93\u20131280, p. 297 (1974) U.S. Code Cong. & Admin. News pp. 4639, 5077, 5078). Second, a written plan ensures that the plan administrator \u201cdischarge[s] his duties \u2024 for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to participants and their beneficiaries[\u2009] and \u2024 in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan,\u201d 29 U.S.C. \u00a7\u20021104(a)(1)(A)(i), (a)(1)(D). See Heffner v. Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Ala., Inc., 443 F.3d 1330, 1334 (11th Cir. 2006).\nThe written plan for the Bankshares employee stock ownership plan obligated it to comply with the Bryants\u2019 elections to diversify their plan accounts. Use of the mandatory term \u201cshall\u201d in the paragraphs governing participant benefits established that the Bryants were entitled to diversify, to obtain stock, and to have the company redeem the stock. See Slater v. Energy Servs. Grp. Int\u2019l, Inc., 634 F.3d 1326, 1330 (11th Cir. 2011) (\u201cthe use of the term \u2018shall\u2019 is one of requirement\u201d); Antonin Scalia & Bryan A. Garner, Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts 114 (2012) (\u201c[W]hen the word shall can reasonably be read as mandatory, it ought to be so read.\u201d). Paragraph 8.3 of the written plan stated that plan participants \u201cshall \u2024 be permitted to diversify\u201d and, if they made such an election, the \u201ctransfer or distribution [of shares of company stock] shall be made \u2024\u201d After the distribution of stock, paragraph 5.8 provided that participants \u201cshall have a \u2018put option\u2019 on [their] shares, giving [them] the right to have the Company purchase such shares\u201d at a price equaling \u201cthe fair market value as of the Annual Valuation Date which precedes the date the put option is exercised.\u201d Under the \u201cplain and ordinary meaning of the \u2024 terms\u201d of the written plan, the Bryants were entitled to elect to diversify. See Alexandra H., 833 F.3d at 1307.\nBankshares argues that the plan administrator was allowed to disregard the terms of the plan for three reasons, but these arguments fail. First, Bankshares argues that the plan administrator was entitled to \u201cinterpret[\u2009] the contract\u201d in a way that \u201cuniformly\u201d avoided \u201charm[\u2009] to the Plan and other participants,\u201d but \u201c[a]s a fiduciary, [the plan administrator was required to] \u2024 administer [the] plan \u2024 \u2018in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan,\u2019\u2009\u201d Heffner, 443 F.3d at 1334 (quoting 29 U.S.C. \u00a7\u20021104(a)(1)(D)\u2009). Second, Bankshares argues that the plan administrator could deny the Bryants\u2019 elections based on paragraph 7.3 of the plan that allowed him to \u201cdetermine all questions \u2024 including \u2024 any situation not specifically covered by the provisions of the plan,\u201d but we decline to address in the first instance an argument that Bankshares did not present to, and does not argue it was unable to raise in, the district court, see Access Now, Inc. v. Sw. Airlines Co., 385 F.3d 1324, 1330\u201333 (11th Cir. 2004). Third, Bankshares argues that \u201cthe language of the Plan \u2024 permitted \u2024 [the plan administrator] not to strictly follow the diversification and put option terms of the Plan,\u201d but that is contrary to the language of the plan. Paragraph 7.5 states that \u201c[t]he plan administrator shall have no power to add to, subtract from or modify any of the terms of \u2024 [or] to change or add to any benefits provided by \u2024 the Plan.\u201d (Emphasis added.) Bankshares offers no reasoned basis for the plan administrator\u2019s decision to override the mandatory and unequivocal terms of the plan.\nBankshares also argues that \u201cthe Plan Administrator\u2019s decision is supported by the evidence\u201d that the Federal Reserve Bank had \u201cprohibited \u2024 Bankshares from redeeming its stock,\u201d but we, like the district court, reject the argument as a post-hoc explanation for denying the Bryants\u2019 elections to diversify. The plan administrator did not mention the prohibition on the original election form sent in February 2009 or on the revised election form dated November 2009. And neither the plan administrator nor Bankshares mentioned the prohibition in their decisions denying the Bryants\u2019 demands for payment or their administrative appeal. When Bankshares told its plan participants about the prohibition in its November 2009 letter, it stated it \u201cis currently subject to a Written Agreement \u2024 that prohibits [it] from purchasing its Common Stock\u201d and \u201ccannot honor the obligation under the put option to purchase Common Stock distributed from the ESOP.\u201d The written agreement had an effective date of September 16, 2009, well after the June 2009 deadline expired for Bankshares to implement the Bryants\u2019 election.\nThe district court did not err in entering judgment against Bankshares and in favor of the Bryants\u2019 claim to enforce their rights under the plan. The refusal of the plan administrator to honor the Bryants\u2019 elections to diversify was arbitrary and capricious. The explanations given for the plan administrator\u2019s decision conflicted with the unambiguous and mandatory language in the written plan and with the information communicated to plan participants. See Yochum v. Barnett Banks, Inc. Severance Pay Plan, 234 F.3d 541, 547 (11th Cir. 2000) (concluding the denial of a claim for benefits was arbitrary and capricious \u201cin that the plain language of the Plan and the Agreement were violated\u201d). The Bryants were entitled to diversify their accounts, to have company stock transferred to their individual retirement accounts, and to exercise their rights to have the stock redeemed by the company. Bankshares does not challenge the findings that Vikki is entitled to 220 shares of stock and that Dave is entitled to 4,599 shares of stock, which when redeemed at $11 per share, entitles them, respectively, to $2,420 and $50,589.\nThe district court also did not abuse its discretion when it used the Alabama interest statute to determine the rate by which to calculate prejudgment interest owed to the Bryants. The Employee Retirement Act does not mandate prejudgment interest. The Alabama interest statute is intended to compensate beneficiaries when their \u201chealth benefit plan \u2024 fails to \u2024 pay a clean written claim \u2024 within the [applicable] time periods.\u201d Ala. Code \u00a7\u200227-1-17(c). The district court reasonably applied section 27-1-17(c) by analogy to make the Bryants whole after Bankshares wrongfully refused to honor their elections and benefitted from withholding their money. See Florence Nightingale, 41 F.3d at 1484 (affirming the use of the Alabama interest statute \u201cas an analogy to fill a gap in ERISA law\u201d); Smith v. Am. Int\u2019l Life Assur. Co. of New York, 50 F.3d 956, 958 (11th Cir. 1995) (affirming prejudgment interest on an award of accidental death benefits under an insurance policy governed by the Employee Retirement Act). Bankshares argues that section 27-1-17(c) \u201csupplies an interest rate for \u2024 [health care benefit] claims only,\u201d but Bankshares identifies no statute that better fits the situation. Bankshares also argues that the interest rate in section 27-1-17(c) is \u201cexorbitant\u201d and exceeds the statutory prejudgment rate of 7.5 percent, Ala. Code \u00a7\u20028-8-10(a), but we have concluded that the \u201cuse of [a] higher interest rate [is] not an abuse of discretion,\u201d Smith, 50 F.3d at 958. We cannot say that the district court abused its discretion when it \u201chas done nothing more than that which we approved in Nightingale.\u201d Id.\nIV.\u2003CONCLUSION\nWe AFFIRM the judgment in favor of the Bryants.",

        "raw_content": "When my husband John Pitts \u2014 who is a super writer and the best editor I know \u2014 and I recently celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary, I wrote about it in my weekly newspaper column and asked my husband to talk about the five things he\u2019s learned in five years of marriage. He did, it got great response and I was tickled that I had tricked my husband into writing my column for me my husband so kindly wrote my column for me that week. However, most people noticed that he,in fact, had written it and so wondered why I was so lazy and where my five things were. So here they are: http://www.timesdaily.com/article/20090619/ARTICLES/906195000\nBut, seriously, the main thing I\u2019ve learned in five years of marriage is something I couldn\u2019t quite articulate in my column without seeming to be critical of my first husband, which I\u2019ve vowed never to do in (newspaper) print. What is that lesson? It\u2019s something I struggled with for years: Saying exactly what I mean and trusting that it\u2019s going to be OK. In my first marriage, I picked up the bad habit of being passive-aggressive. You know, playing the \u201cI\u2019m-upset-but-I\u2019m-not-going-to-tell-you-because-if-you-loved-me-enough-you\u2019d-figure-it-out\u201d game that only leads to disaster. That is not the basis for a healthy relationship, and to get over doing that means you have to rely on trust and faith and respect \u2014 which I have in overflowing abundance with my husband John Pitts. Who, by the way, is an awesome stepfather, too. Am I lucky or what?\nThis entry was posted in family, journalism and tagged family, husbands and wives, marriage, relationships by Coffee with Cathy.

You\u2019ll know immediately when you arrive at Bo-Kaap, formerly known as the Malay Quarter, when you\u2019re suddenly walking on cobblestone streets lined with the most brilliantly colored homes, situated directly side-by-side to one another.\nAs you walk along the streets, your eyes are met with an array of bright colors set against a bold blue sky. I got to Bo-Kaap as the sun began to set, but you can imagine how radiant these abodes can be when the sun\u2019s shining brightly.\nThe candy-colored homes are a combination of Cape Dutch and Cape Georgian architectural styles and make for some incredible photo ops! A loud pink alongside lime green, a sunny yellow adjoins lavender, which meets a sky blue. Kids are playing in the streets, while hip photographers are doing their best to capture just how stunning these homes are. It\u2019s a quaint, charming area with lots to see.\nThis unique neighborhood is home to a diverse heritage ranging from Africa, India, Malaysia, Madagascar and Sri Lanka, as a result of the Dutch slave trade in the 16th and 17th centuries. Once a neighborhood for \u201cCape Muslims only\u201d under the 1950 apartheid law, Muslims splashed their segregated neighborhood with the bold colors that can still be seen today.\nNot only is Bo-Kaap is one of the most colorful parts of South Africa, but it\u2019s also an area known for its culture and history. For those interested in learning more about it, one of the oldest buildings in Bo Kaap has been turned into The Bo Kaap Museum, which showcases local Islamic culture and heritage. Moreover, Bo-Kaap is where South Africa\u2019s oldest mosque can be found.

George and Dennis Schroder each scored 19, but the Thunder\u2019s four-game win streak came to an end.\nThe Thunder outscored Chicago 29-17 in the third quarter to turn a 70-62 halftime deficit into a 91-87 lead going into the fourth quarter.\nThey were up 98-91 when Chicago went on a 14-2 run, with LaVine hitting a tiebreaking 3 and Markkanen adding two free throws to make it a five-point game with 4:46 remaining.\nThunder: Coach Billy Donovan said \u201cnothing was brought to my attention\u201d about possibly adding C Joakim Noah, trying to revive his career after signing with Memphis this week. \u201cOur roster\u2019s pretty complete so that\u2019s probably the biggest thing,\u201d he said. \u201cNo one\u2019s a bigger fan and admires him more than I do.\u201d Noah starred for Donovan on back-to-back NCAA championship teams at Florida and spent his first nine NBA seasons in Chicago before spending two with the New York Knicks.\nBulls: Boylen wasn\u2019t sure if G Kris Dunn (sprained left MCL) and F Bobby Portis (sprained right MCL) will return from their injuries Saturday when the Bulls host Boston. \u201cI\u2019m not trying to be vague; I don\u2019t know yet. We kind of wait to see how they respond in the morning, it\u2019s one of those types of things. We check in and we go from there.\u201d Dunn has appeared in just one game \u2014 Oct. 22 at Dallas \u2014 while Portis has played in four.\n(\u00a9 2018 by STATS LLC and Associated Press.

        "raw_content": "A self-driving minivan \u2013 it may be here sooner than you thought\nBy Linda Steil on May 9, 2016\nImagine picking up clients or co-workers at the airport and being able to conduct a full-fledged business meeting while your vehicle safely delivers all of you to your destination.\nOr run new plays with your team while on your way to the big game.\nOr make a shopping list, schedule dentist appointments for the whole family and find a babysitter for next weekend all while your vehicle deals with the hassle of navigating rush hour traffic.\nFor the first time since it began seven years ago, the Google Self-Driving Car Project is partnering with an automaker and expanding their test program. That automaker is Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA).\nThe vehicle? The all-new Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid.\n\u201cFCA has a nimble and experienced engineering team and the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivan is well-suited for Google\u2019s self-driving technology,\u201d said Chief Executive Officer, Google Self-Driving Car Project John Krafcik. \u201cThe opportunity to work closely with FCA engineers will accelerate our efforts to develop a fully self-driving car that will make our roads safer and bring everyday destinations within reach for those who cannot drive.\u201d\nStarting with approximately 100 Pacificas built specifically for Google\u2019s self-driving technology, the partnership will nearly double the current fleet of Google test vehicles.\nA private test track in California is the first stop, once the Google technology is fully integrated into the vehicles. They will then make their way onto public roads for further testing. (Google\u2019s self-driving vehicles are currently tested on public roads in Mountain View, California, Austin, Texas, Kirkland, Washington and Phoenix, Arizona.)\n\u201cWorking with Google provides an opportunity for FCA to partner with one of the world\u2019s leading technology companies to accelerate the pace of innovation in the automotive industry,\u201d said Chief Executive Officer, FCA Sergio Marchionne. \u201cThe experience both companies gain will be fundamental to delivering automotive technology solutions that ultimately have far-reaching consumer benefits.\u201d\nResearch has estimated that, as vehicles with advanced driver-assistance systems as well as fully autonomous vehicles become more mainstream, accident rates could drop as much as 90 percent.\nThe economical impact of this estimate alone is enormous. When you also consider the emotional impact of those who suffer the loss of loved ones due to accidents on the roadway, the benefit is staggering.",

        "raw_content": "School drop-off and pickup \u2013 three rules to live by\nI used to listen to my friends with kids talk about the school drop-off lane and laugh. Sometimes their frustration with other parents in the line was the basis for some pretty funny stories. Sometimes it was the source of their morning stress.\nSometimes, my friends were the source of others\u2019 morning frustration.\nNow, with nearly a full school year of drop-off and pickup lane experience under my belt, I promise you I have been the source of many an eye-roll while sitting in the pickup lane. I do, however, also have a whole new appreciation for \u201cthe rules.\u201d\nWith only a few weeks of school left, it seems there is no better time for a quick review of what I consider the top three. So, let\u2019s get started.\nRule #1. Do not get out of your vehicle. Do not. Get out. Of your vehicle.\nIt\u2019s a lane, not a parking lot. Lane, by definition, means keep it moving. If little Johnny or Sally needs you to walk them to the door or if you need to share a piece of news with the mom who lives down the street, that\u2019s FINE. But find an available parking space and enjoy your commune with nature.\nYour consideration for those who need to keep things rolling will be duly noted and appreciated.\nRule #2. Car chat with your kids is fine, even encouraged. If you have a pre-teen and you\u2019re lucky enough to get two words out of him or her, congratulations! However, curb chat is discouraged. Here, the primary focus is stop, drop and keep it rolling.\nThink of it this way. The school drop-off lane is the drop zone and your little soldiers\u2019 mission is to have a productive and great day at school. Your mission is to get them there safely, efficiently and without disruption. In the morning, gather up backpacks and lunch bags as you\u2019re pulling in, ensuring your little guy or gal has everything in-hand when you pull up to the curb.\nIt is perfectly acceptable to yell \u201cI love you\u201d as they slam the car door. After all, parents were put on earth to embarrass their children.\nPickup at the end of the school day, it should look like this:\nBelt buckled\nCommence car chat\nYour consideration for those who need to keep things rolling will, again, be duly noted and appreciated.\nRule #3. Double-parking is not cool.\nYou spilled coffee on your white shirt, the dog was being stubborn and wouldn\u2019t listen and the kid(s) refused to eat breakfast. You\u2019re definitely having a case of the Mondays. Now you\u2019re running late and you\u2019re laundry list of everything you need to accomplish today is the only thing on your mind. Oh. My. Goodness.\nNo matter the reason, authorization to block two or more other parents in with your vehicle, then speed off as said vehicles wait even longer, allowing your kids to safely pass between them has been revoked. In fact, it was never actually granted.\nAgain, your consideration for those who need to keep things rolling will be duly noted and appreciated.",

The India engineering centre is the largest outside US with a world class lab facility focussing on quality engineering,\u201d said Craig.\nThe centre hosts three dedicated labs for digital media, a dedicated lab for audio device testing, commercial & residential lighting and has an employee strength of 150. He added, \u201cCrestron India has over 200 employees and we are looking to hire around 250 employees in the next couple of years. Globally we have over 3000 people across 32 countries.\u201d\nOn why the company was setting up local operations, Craig said, \u201cThe boost in IT/ITeS, the manufacturing sector and even globalisation has been a game-changer for the industry. There is a sudden increase in demand for state-of-the-art audio-video conferencing facilities across different sectors in the country. In the future, we see the automation sector witness enormous growth in the country with companies willing to invest in various automation solutions to increase efficiency and productivity,\u201d he said.\nWhile India is a focus market for the company, Craig refrained from sharing any specific investment details for the country. \u201cIndia is a key market for APAC & has significant growth potential & opportunity. We have and will continue to invest in India. The focus for India would be all sectors of the Indian market like the government, residential, corporate, hospitality and education,\u201d said Craig. The AV industry has been growing at a rapid pace in the country and Craig expects initiatives like Digital India and Smart Cities to result in an increased demand for these solutions.\nOver the past few years, AV technologies are enhancing their services and moving towards cloud and software based applications. With the growing trend to minimise hardware clutter, browser based cloud video conferencing has been growing drastically. The AV industry as a whole is growing every day. The future looks bright for the industry and these trends will only push us further.\nTags : Corporate, Crestron, Crestron products, smart cities, R&D, IoT, India, AV industry",

I don\u2019t listed to a lot of podcasts, but this was very worthwhile. Also see you on Twitter. Thank you for this; I am a (recovering) Sleepy Hollow fan, and what you have to say is so spot-on. Wish Orci & company could hear what you have to say; would be very enlightening. My experience in fandom has been very educational, both in how media works (especially in the age of social media), and how far we have to go to achieve any measure of equality in representation. It\u2019s astounding to see how the fandom is fractured, largely along racial lines. It\u2019s also astounding how Fox (which, I shouldn\u2019t be surprised, after all!) has used fans of color and discarded us (and Nicole Beharie) so egregiously. The statement Fox just put out today at Upfronts was so disrespectful to Nicole, not even thanking her for her hard work over the last three years or acknowledging the vital role she has played in getting this show off the ground. I am also very disconcerted about the so-called \u201cinsiders\u201d or \u201cindustry\u201d types mounting what amounts to a shadow campaign to discredit Nikki, painting her as a diva who was entitled and difficult to work with. It is tragic that, even in 2016, women who voice any concern or criticism (if, indeed, she had, and she would\u2019ve been well within her rights to do so\u2026) are considered divas\u2026 or worse. I have tried to counter that whenever I see it in Comments sections because her treatment, particularly in Season 2, and then ESPECIALLY in S3E18, was uncalled for, and it was obvious what was happening. In addition, she had a job waiting for her even PRIOR to the season finale airing overseas; actors have been blacklisted for LESS than what she has been accused of, yet she is able to find a good role before the season is officially over? Give me a break\u2026 Keep it up, ladies, and keep telling that truth! It\u2019s very much needed!\nDjinna, I\u2019m glad you enjoyed our discussion. \ud83d\ude42 If you\u2019re on social media, be sure to let Jamie and Monique know how you feel!\nPrevious Previous post: Imagining Underground \u2013 What\u2019s next?\nNext Next post: FOX\u2019s Kobiyashi",

        "raw_content": "Fundamentally Transforming America? Indeed.\nWritten by Rick David on March 25, 2013\nElection eve, 2008, President-elect Obama claims, \u201cWe are one step closer to fundamentally transforming America, forever.\u201d The mob of Chicago admirers cheered uproariously. What did this mean to them? Was it just another nebulous, but exhilarating one liner like \u201chope and change\u201d? Or were they cheering that somehow he would bring about some sort of justice for the perceived wrongs that had been perpetrated upon the \u201cpoor\u201d people by big corporations and old, white, rich men?\nMaybe they were just happy to finally be done with George Bush, whom the media had successfully demonized as the cruelest oppressor of Americans since King George III. For five years now, we\u2019ve all been working to understand what he meant. Some of us had a clue and a few have been attempting to stop him. Sometimes it feels like we have our finger in the proverbial dike.\nThe transformation is proceeding. We\u2019ve experienced the largest expansion of government spending and its attendant power in our history. The process of nationalizing health care has begun, which will necessitate that government must control all of your lifestyle choices. Redistribution of wealth through higher taxation for all but the lowest incomes will commence this year. We all know that stealing from the rich and giving to the poor creates prosperity. The attacks on Americans who cling to their guns and religion have been amped up. He promised to save us from global warming and, so, the coal industry has been destroyed. No new nuclear plants have been put on line, but we\u2019ve seen the landscape polluted with giant windmills and failed solar energy plants with connections to the Obama campaign. So, energy prices have skyrocketed just as he promised.\nUnfortunately, the oppressed poor haven\u2019t really benefited from any of this transformation. In fact, they\u2019re worse off than before it started. But, that\u2019s the fault of the Republicans somehow, despite the fact that they have not been able to have a single policy victory in five years.\nSome years ago I had heard about a dastardly vision that liberals had for forcing us all (except for the political elite, of course) back into the inner cities. Supposedly, Obama was involved with a group in Chicago whose goal was \u201ccities without suburbs.\u201d Now, I don\u2019t know about you, but I enjoy a yard and a garden. I prefer to see my grandchildren running around the yard instead of some tenement infested with gang-bangers. I hadn\u2019t heard much more about this since 2008, but then, this week I happened upon an interview on Fox News with Megyn Kelly. She was interviewing Stanley Kurtz, author of Spreading the Wealth Around: How Obama Is Robbing the Suburbs to Pay For the Cities.\nAccording to Kurtz, \u201cThe idea of smart growth policies is that you should get out of your car, don\u2019t move to the suburbs. You should live in a tiny, densely packed apartment building in the city where you would walk and take public transportation, (not) drive\u201d. How do they intend to accomplish the monumental task of forcing us all back into the crowded city? They had planned to implement it by legislating a cap and trade system whereby the connected liberals would line their pockets by selling carbon credits to everyone. But, those rascally Republicans said \u201cno\u201d again, so instead, they will use the new SS, the EPA. If one searches the EPA website, we can learn about what they call the Sustainable Communities Initiative.\nThe Sustainable Communities Initiative is an exciting new program introduced by the Obama administration and spearheaded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It calls for a collaborative and integrated approach between federal agencies \u2013 particularly HUD, DOT and EPA \u2013 to promote more equitable, livable and sustainable neighborhoods and communities throughout our metropolitan regions.\nSCI must require a strong focus on social and racial justice goals.\nThe mission of the Office of Sustainable Housing and Communities is to create strong, sustainable communities by connecting housing to jobs, fostering local innovation, and helping to build a clean energy economy.\nPermit me to interpret. When you hear liberals talk about \u201csocial and racial justice\u201d, they mean wealth redistribution. Payback. Reparations. A \u201cclean energy\u201d economy means, no fossil fuels, ie. gasoline. That means you must walk, take the bus or ride the train.\nContinuing my train of thought from last week, Obama is motivated by a deep seated hatred of everything American. There\u2019s nothing more American than a little bit of private space in the country to enjoy the great outdoors. He wants to punish us for generations of imperialism by forcing us all into small apartments in the city to live like trapped rats.\nImage: Source:Juneau Village Towers; uploaded by xnatedawgx; author: Jeramey Jannene from Milwaukee, WI, United States of America; Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Generic license\nRick David retired from a career in business in 2011.

        "raw_content": "Maine is vulnerable to increasing temperatures, ocean acidification and the spread of Lyme disease\nMaine\u2019s climate has already warmed by about three degrees Fahrenheit in the last century. Increasing temperatures are causing spring to arrive earlier, bringing more precipitation and more frequent storms. Ocean acidification threatens the future of the fishing industry.\nFishing: Maine\u2019s fishing sector may suffer as the climate changes. Warmer ocean waters are pushing fish out to deeper waters and increasingly acidic environments threaten the shells of lobsters and other shellfish.\nAdaptation: While Maine developed a Climate Action Plan in 2004, the plan does not specifically address adaptation. However, a state program exists to provide businesses, consultants, homeowners and public officials information about the process of adapting to climate change in Maine.\nMaine residents support clean energy and climate regulations\nAccording to the Yale Map Project on Climate Change Communication 69% of Maine residents recognize that global warming is happening. The study finds that 76% of residents support regulating carbon dioxide as a pollutant and 83% support funding research into renewable energy sources.\nMaine: biomass, hydro and wind power the state\nMaine ranks 21 in wind capacity with 901 MW installed, enough to power 149,000 homes. There are 5 companies in Maine related to wind manufacturing.\nMaine ranks 34 in solar, with installed capacity enough to power 3,500 homes. The solar industry employs 330 people across 54 companies across the solar value chain in Maine.\nSince nearly 90% of Maine is forested, wood and other biomass fuels are an important part of the state\u2019s rural economy.\nMaine had the lowest average electricity retail prices in New England at the end of 2015.\nIn 2015, two-thirds of Maine\u2019s net electricity generation came from renewable energy sources: 30% hydroelectricity, 26% biomass (mostly wood products) and 10% wind.\nMaine set a renewable energy standard of 40% renewable generation from electric utilities by 2017.\nPrevious ArticleMassachusettsNext ArticleRhode Island",

        "title": "Major New Health Insurance Initiative",
        "raw_content": "CLINTON-GORE ADMINISTRATION UNVEILS\nToday, President Clinton will unveil a 10-year, $110 billion initiative that would dramatically improve the affordability of and access to health insurance. The proposal would expand coverage to at least 5 million uninsured Americans and expand access to millions more. It addresses the nation\ufffds multi-faceted coverage challenges by building on and complementing current private and public programs. Specifically, the initiative will: (1) provide a new, affordable health insurance option for families; (2) accelerate enrollment of uninsured children eligible for Medicaid and S-CHIP; (3) expand health insurance options for Americans facing unique barriers to coverage; and (4) strengthen programs that provide health care directly to the uninsured.\nThe Challenge of the Uninsured and Its Implications. Over 44 million Americans lack health insurance. Although there are many causes of this problem, it generally results from lack of affordability and/or access to coverage. Family health insurance premiums cost on average $5,700 -- which represents a large share of income for a family trying to make ends meet. Purchasing affordable, accessible insurance is a particular challenge for many older people, workers in transitions between jobs, and small businesses and their employees. Lacking health insurance has serious consequences. The uninsured are three times as likely not to receive needed medical care, 50 to 70 percent more likely to need hospitalization for avoidable hospital conditions like pneumonia or uncontrolled diabetes, and four times more likely to rely on an emergency room or have no regular source of care than the privately insured.\nThe President\ufffds four-pronged initiative significantly expands coverage and improves access by:\nI. Providing a new, affordable health insurance OPTION FOR families ($76 billion over 10 years, about 4 million uninsured covered). Over 80 percent of parents of uninsured children with incomes below 200 percent of poverty (about $33,000 for a family of four) are themselves uninsured. Yet, while states have aggressively expanded insurance options for children through Medicaid and the State Children\ufffds Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP), parents are often left behind. There are about 6.5 million uninsured parents with income in the Medicaid and S-CHIP eligibility range for children. These parents frequently do not have access to employer-based insurance, and when they do, cannot afford it. Recognizing that family coverage not only helps a large proportion of the nation\ufffds uninsured adults but increases the enrollment of children, the Vice President, the National Governors\ufffd Association, and a wide range of groups including Families USA and the Health Insurance Association of America have called for building on S-CHIP to cover parents. The Administration\ufffds budget adopts this approach by:\nCreating a New \"FamilyCare\" Program. This proposal, which has been advocated by Vice President Gore, would provide higher Federal matching payments for state coverage of parents of children eligible for Medicaid or S-CHIP. Under FamilyCare, parents would be covered in the same plan as their children. States would use the same systems and follow most of the same rules as they do in Medicaid and S-CHIP today, and the program would be overseen by the same state agency. State spending for FamilyCare would be matched at the same higher matching rate as S-CHIP (up to 15 percentage points higher than the Medicaid rate). To ensure adequate funding, $50 billion over 10 years would be added to the current state S-CHIP allotments. To access these higher allotments, states would have to first cover children to 200 percent of poverty as 30 states now have done. Given states\ufffd enthusiastic response to S-CHIP and the NGA support for this option, we expect strong state response and significant expansion to parents under FamilyCare. If, after 5 years, some states have not expanded coverage of parents to at least 100 percent of poverty ($16,700 for a family of 4), a fail-safe mechanism would be triggered to require states to expand coverage to that level.\nAssisting Families in Affording Private Employer-Based Coverage. FamilyCare would also facilitate the option to pool state funding with employer contributions toward private insurance, which can be a cost-effective way to expand coverage. Under this option, families otherwise eligible for FamilyCare coverage could get assistance in purchasing their employers\ufffd health plan if it meets FamilyCare standards and their employer pays for at least half of the premium. This minimum employer contribution, along with the S-CHIP crowd-out policies, should discourage employers from reducing or dropping coverage. This option is supported by the National Governors\ufffd Association as well.\nII. Accelerating enrollment of uninsured children eligible for Medicaid and S-CHIP ($5.5 billion over 10 years, an additional 400,000 uninsured children covered). The State Children\ufffds Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP) helps children in families with income too high to be eligible for Medicaid but too low to afford private insurance. Enrollment in S-CHIP doubled to 2 million children in 1999. However, despite this encouraging trend, millions of children remain eligible but unenrolled in both S-CHIP and Medicaid. The Administration\ufffds budget includes ideas advocated by the Vice President that would give states needed tools to increase coverage by:\nAllowing School Lunch Programs to Share Information with Medicaid ($345 million over 10 years). Since 60 percent of uninsured children are in the school lunch program, sharing eligibility information can efficiently help outreach efforts.\nExpanding Sites Authorized to Enroll Children in S-CHIP and Medicaid ($1.2 billion over 10 years). This includes schools, child care resource and referral centers, homeless programs, and other sites.\nRequiring States to Make their Medicaid and S-CHIP Enrollment Equally Simple ($4.0 billion over 10 years). Most states have carried over their S-CHIP simplification strategies like eliminating assets tests and using mail-in applications into the Medicaid program. This proposal would have all states do so to make enrollment easier for both programs.\nIII. Expanding health insurance options for AMERICANS facing unique barriers to coverage ($28.7 billion over 10 years, about 600,000 million uninsured people covered). Some vulnerable groups of Americans lack access to employer-sponsored insurance and insurance programs like Medicare or Medicaid. These include older Americans, people in transition (between jobs, turning 19 and entering the workforce, leaving welfare for work), and workers in small businesses. This plan addresses these and other problems by:\nEstablishing a Medicare Buy-In Option and Making It More Affordable Through a Tax Credit ($5.4 billion for both the buy-in and credit over 10 years). The rate of uninsured is growing fastest among people ages 55 to 65 and is expected to increase even faster in the future. Recognizing this, the President and Vice President are calling on Congress to pass legislation that allows people ages 62 through 65 and displaced workers ages 55 to 65 to pay premiums to buy into Medicare. The proposal also would require employers who drop previously-promised retiree coverage to allow early retirees with limited alternatives to have access to COBRA continuation coverage until they reach age 65 and qualify for Medicare. This year, to make this policy more affordable, the President proposes a tax credit, equal to 25 percent of the premium, for participants in the Medicare buy-in. Coupled with the tax credit for COBRA (described below), this policy will address access to and the affordability of health insurance for this vulnerable group.\nMaking COBRA Continuation Coverage More Affordable ($10.3 billion over 10 years). Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA), passed in 1985, allows workers in firms with greater than 20 employees to pay a full premium (102 percent of the average cost of group health insurance) to buy into their employers\ufffd health plan for up to 18 to 36 months after leaving their job. This policy is intended to improve the continuity of health coverage as workers change jobs. However, fewer than 25 percent of people eligible for this coverage participate, in part due to cost. The Administration\ufffds budget includes a 25 percent tax credit for COBRA premiums to reduce the number of Americans who experience a gap in coverage due to job change.\nImproving Access to Affordable Insurance for Workers in Small Businesses ($313 million over 10 years). Nearly half of uninsured workers are in firms with fewer than 25 employees. The President proposes to give small firms that have not previously offered health insurance a tax credit equal to 20 percent their contribution -- twice the credit he proposed last year -- towards health insurance obtained through purchasing coalitions. In additional, tax incentives would be given to foundations to help pay for start-up costs of these coalitions, and the Federal Employees\ufffd Health Benefits Program would make available technical assistance to purchasing coalitions.\nExpanding State Options to Insure Children Through Age 20 ($1.9 billion over 10 years). Nearly one in three people ages 18 to 24 are uninsured mostly because they age out of Medicaid or S-CHIP or no longer are dependents in private plans. However, they often do not have jobs that offer affordable coverage. The budget would gives states the option to cover people ages 19 and 20 through Medicaid and FamilyCare.\nExtending Transitional Medicaid ($4.3 billion over 10 years). Many people leaving welfare for work take first jobs that do not offer affordable health insurance. Recognizing this, Congress passed a requirement in 1988 that extends Medicaid coverage for up to a year for those losing it due to increased earnings. This provision was extended in the welfare reform law to 2001. The President\ufffds budget makes this provision permanent and simplifies the state and family requirements to promote enrollment.\nRestoring State Options to Insure Legal Immigrants ($6.5 billion over 10 years). States are prohibited from providing health insurance for certain legal immigrants who entered the U.S. after the enactment of welfare reform. The uninsured rate for people of Hispanic origin, some of whom are legal immigrants, was 35 percent in 1998 -- over twice the national average of 16 percent. The proposal would give states the option to insure children and pregnant women in Medicaid and S-CHIP regardless of their date of entry. It would eliminate the 5-year ban, deeming, and affidavit of support provisions. The proposal would also require states to provide Medicaid coverage to disabled immigrants who would be made eligible for SSI by the FY 2001 budget\ufffds SSI restoration proposal.\nIV. Strengthening Programs that Provide Health Care Directly to the Uninsured (At least $1 billion over 10 years). In the absence of a universal health insurance system, public hospitals, clinics, and thousands of health care providers give health care of the uninsured and receive inadequate compensation for doing so. Despite a rising need, reductions in government spending and aggressive cost cutting by private insurers has left less money in the health care system to address these needs. The President will renew his commitment to helping these providers by:\nIncreasing Funding for Increasing Access to Health Care for the Uninsured (+$100 million for FY 2001, $1 billion over 5 years). Last year, the President and Secretary Shalala proposed an historic new program to coordinate systems of care, increase the number of services delivered and establish an accountability system to assure adequate patient care for the uninsured and low-income. The Congress funded an initial $25 million investment for this program. This year, the President proposes funding this initiative at $125 million, a $100 million increase over 2000, representing a down payment on the President\ufffds proposal to invest $1 billion over 5 years. The Administration will also aggressively pursue an authorization to ensure that the program becomes a core element of the health care safety net.\nInvesting in Community Health Centers (+$50 million for FY 2001). The budget proposes an increase of $50 million to support and enhance the network of community health centers that serve millions of low-income and uninsured Americans -- for total funding of over $1.069 billion in FY 2001.",

        "raw_content": "Palo Alto High School journalism students are empowered to lead their publications, and their learning\n(Cross-posted on the Google Student Blog.)\nEditor's note: One of the main discussion points of Education on Air, the free online conference from Google on May 8th-9th, was how we can empower students in their learning. Our guest author today, Coby Parker, is one of the students who shared views as part of the student empowerment panel at the conference. Coby and his classmate and co-author Claire Liu are the Editors-in-Chief of the Campanile, the student-created, award-winning publication at Palo Alto High School. Today they share more insights about how the journalism program at his school, led by educator Esther Wojcicki, motivates students. We hope this provides ideas for teachers as they head into summer and next year.\nOne of the most vital pieces of an education is student empowerment. Here at Palo Alto High School, students are given the opportunity to take complete control over their academic and creative journey through the journalism program Esther Wojcicki (or \u201cWoj\u201d) has created.\nThe journalism program and publications that Woj has built over the last 30 years are incredibly appealing to our student body, as demonstrated by the hundreds of kids who choose to enroll in \u201cBeginning Journalism\u201d each year. High school is a challenging time \u2013 young people are faced with the obstacles presented by academic stress, extracurricular commitments and changing social norms. For me, it was difficult to find something to spend my time doing that provided both intellectual stimulation and creative escape.\nJoining Paul Kandell\u2019s \u201cBeginning Journalism\u201d class sophomore year, and then enrolling in The Campanile, a school newspaper that Woj advises, has granted me the space to grow my academic independence and leadership ability. Our entire publication is headed by students only. Student editors like me lead story ideas, and staff writers pick and choose the pieces they feel passionate about writing. There are no limitations on story ideas \u2013 as long as a proposal is relevant, we give it the green light.\nIf you like what you see in this highlight reel for the Education on Air student empowerment panel, check out the full session.\nAfter students submit first drafts, peers make edits on Google Drive, suggesting changes, marking grammar and AP style errors, and more. When \u201cproduction\u201d begins, the entire staff stays on campus in the Media Arts Center until 9 P.M. each night to design the tangible, paper product. The entire process is run by students, meaning it is the high schoolers alone who create the complex and sophisticated end product. We even sell advertisements to pay the bills. If a student needs help, he or she asks a high school peer \u2013 not Woj. Woj leads very much from behind \u2013 an approach that may be challenging for many educators, but one that is truly beneficial to the strengthening of student initiative.\nEssentially, the only time Woj intervenes is if she has a specific design suggestion, brief lesson, or if a specific story may contain libel or is unethical in some way \u2013 this happens pretty infrequently. In my three years on The Campanile, Woj has never forced us to do or publish anything we did not want to. Her approach provides students the room to take on big projects and develop a self-confidence and desire to test boundaries, both personal and societal.\nMy colleague Claire Liu, another Editor-in-Chief, explained the impact the course has had for her. \u201cAs a staff writer, I have pursued a range of stories, standard and provocative. Whether I was documenting a sports game, addressing race relations or discussing gender roles and sexuality through the paper, I have felt Woj\u2019s subtle but ever present support. In this rare, fast-paced and invigorating environment, we are allowed to fail, and encouraged to take risks and challenge the norm, all while being supported by a teacher who consistently has our back (even when she\u2019s feeling a bit hesitant, and even if we mess up big time!). Students join The Campanile expecting to learn how to design a newspaper page and write articles. They gain not only those things, but an entire toolbox of powerful character traits and skills that will last them a lifetime.\u201d\nIn psychology class I recently learned the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Generally in the education system, students work hard to get good grades and please their teachers \u2013 extrinsic motivation. In The Campanile, the motivation is more intrinsic. The threshold to get an A is the bare minimum, and anything above and beyond that has to come from the individual student\u2019s efforts. The reward is much more basic than an A on the report card; it\u2019s being able to hold a newspaper and point to the real impact that he or she made.\nOur advisor, Woj, truly plays the role of advisor and not teacher. She\u2019s there for us when we need her, but when we don\u2019t, she doesn\u2019t impose on us or make us do anything we don\u2019t want to. In the end, we are responsible for our actions, the dime stops with us. I hope more schools can implement programs like The Campanile and empower students to take charge of their own education.\nIf you\u2019re interested in learning more about Esther Wojcicki\u2019s approach to teaching check out this interview with her in which she talks about her recent book \u201cMoonshots in Education: Launching Blended Learning in the Classroom\u201d or read more on her website.\nPosted by Coby Parker & Claire Liu, seniors at Palo Alto High School & Editor-in-Chief of the Campanile\nLabels: customer love , Education on Air , Gone Google , Google Drive , Google for Education",

        "title": "Comercio Launches a Public cloud \u2022 Connect Nigeria",
        "raw_content": "Comercio Launches a Public cloud\nComercio has launched the first enterprise Public cloud platform in Nigeria. Their vision is to create a public cloud platform for medium and large enterprises and to provide the same services as Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services here in Nigeria.\nWith the economic challenges faced worldwide and. especially in Nigeria, companies are looking to reduce their expenditure whilst trying to grow their business, global best practise is that most CIOs are moving to cloud platforms for data storage. With the reduction in recent times with the cost of accessing internet services, this service has not come at a better time with more world class data centres to host cloud platforms available today than ever before in Nigeria.\nSpeaking at the event, the Chief Technical Officer, Mr. Aderemi Adejumo, stated that \u2018\u2019Comercio Public cloud platforms offers enterprises the opportunity to move their IT expenditure from a CAPEX to an OPEX as well as only pay for what they consume. It is a perfect pay-as-you-go model to minimise expenditure and create great savings\u2019\u2019\nHe added that \u2018\u2019The other great advantage is their time to market. In traditional computing, it takes 4 \u2013 16 weeks to request, get appropriate approvals and procure hardware before installing and configuration of the software. In this current fast changing world this is not acceptable and a great challenge. With our public cloud platform, the required hardware can be provisioned and available in less that 48 hours. With the flexibility, agility and expansion potential, our clients do not need to have an accurate estimation of growth and sizing. In a public facing service delivery this is crucial as an inadequately sized infrastructure will guarantee failure whilst an overspeed infrastructure will be a waste of funds\u2019\u2019\nThe Managing Director of Comercio Cloud, Mrs Adeyegbe also stated that \u2018\u2019they have a number of advantages over the notable foreign cloud platforms. Their platform has a lower latency than offshore platforms. It takes on average less than 25% of the time to retrieve data from an offshore cloud platform\u2019\u2019 In addition she said that \u2018\u2019the company provides a bespoke service, which means that they engage their customers and guide their request to the most optimum solution on their platform. They also accept payment in our local currency, which means that there is a stability in payments and in the event of a dollar fluctuation, there would be no anxiety of exceeding the budget. We meet the requirements for data localisation and if there are regulatory or compliance reasons for the data to be onshore they are compliant. In addition we meet the requirements for data sovereignty and in the event of a dispute or legal issue, they are bound by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria\u2019\u2019\nOverall there is a greater peace of mind on a local cloud platform and from our local economy point of view, it reduces capital flight and encourages job creation.\nThere has been and there continues to be more world class data centres coming on to the market. It provides an adequate platform for them to build a Public cloud platform. They use at least two of the Data centres to provide redundancy and disaster recovery capabilities. Using VMware technology, they are able to move their cloud infrastructure from one location to another in the event of a failure with little or no data loss.\nAnother important aspect of the cloud platform is security. They have a very sophisticated security setup that has a granularity that cannot be replicated affordably on a physical platform. The configuration of a centralised storage point for all the data means that it is much safer to secure and to track the access and usage of the data.\nComercio Public cloud adheres to international standards like PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data security standards), ISO 27001, (Information security management system) and ISO 9001 (Quality management system).\nTheir portfolio of products includes provided VM, (Virtual machines) and are able to provision a virtual server with public and private IP addresses. They also provide Backup as a service and have a platform that provides backup and recovery services. In addition, they take away the mundane and the monotony of taking the daily backups and provide an offsite recovery location. Storage is also provided as a service, this is a repository to store your data in the cloud. This is very useful for storing CCTV footage for example, especially where there is a regulatory requirement for a retention period. They provide archiving as a service which is a cold storage solution for archival data and this platform allows companies to digitise and store data electronically and free space in their offices of cold data, while still maintaining the ability to lookup and retrieve the data. DR is a service provided, where they provide a backup to a company\u2019s IT infrastructure such that in the event of failure they are able to provide access to the company\u2019s data with minimum or no losses. They also provide a hybrid cloud where a company with an in-house private cloud could lease resources from them to complement their infrastructure requires whether on demand or for a particular event or occasion.",

Here he is a year ago on his 18th birthday. I just love this look of absolute and unfettered delight at eating the ice-cream cake. He was a good boy.\nMy parents got him when he was only a puppy from the animal shelter. He was sentenced to euthanasia by the animal shelter because he had a faulty heart. He was not expected to live longer than a few years at the most. My mum\u2019s friend who volunteered at the animal shelter luckily saved him from certain death and brought him home one day intending to find him a foster home. So he was christened Lucky.\nInstead of dying young because of a weak heart, Lucky bloomed under the loving attention of my mum. He managed to live to the ripe old age of 18 years. This long life would have been helped by the daily walks, and a diet of lean raw kangaroo meat he was eating every day. The little engine that couldn\u2019t \u2013 Lucky\u2019s weak heart turned into the little engine that could. He will be sadly missed. Although this photo encapsulates what he was all about. He had a real cheekiness, a massive bark and a huge attitude as though he was owed the entire world on a plate. He would regularly snarl and strut around dobermans and great danes in the park, not understanding his size \u2013 he was a unique dog. He went wild for this cake, demolishing it within five seconds after obediently waiting for us to each cut off a piece.\nEvery Picture Tells a Story: Lucky\u2019s 18th Birthday Copyright Content Catnip 2017\nPrevious Post Vintage textile: A treasure trove of online fashion from days of yore\nNext Post Travel: The Beautiful Terrace Windows of Triana, Sevilla",

        "raw_content": "flying low #13: dive \u2192\n2016 in retrospect: amvs (10 \u2013 1) // editor of the year\n10. UnluckyArtist \u2013 Blithe and Bonny\nMusic: Photay \u2013 \u201cNo Sass\u201d\nAMV editors have, over the years, come up with numerous ways to catch viewers\u2019 eyes and make them stay. These days it would seem expecting someone to sit through more than two minutes of video is asking too much, and it would also seem (if my numbers are to be believed) that videos are getting shorter and shorter each year on average, perhaps as a reaction to this more ADD mindset. As editors, we\u2019ve responded in a number of ways, including slicker editing tricks, lots of technical sleight of hand, and all manner of quick-fix emotional shortcuts to engage the viewer within the first few seconds so that they feel compelled to stay. Others of us have just ignored the urge to appeal to this trend, making videos how we want to make them. But there\u2019s one path to a person\u2019s attention that always seems to work on me, at least \u2014 that of appealing to my sense of beauty.\nBlithe and Bonny decides to take a leisurely stroll down this road, and it works from the first scene \u2014 a rain-flecked window overlays multiple scenes as they blur in and out of focus, before the video latches on to and off of other motifs found throughout Kyoto Animation\u2019s works. Besides the fact that UnluckyArtist is using some of the best-looking series and movies from the past several years, there\u2019s a certain sense of serene and often abstract allure that imbues this video. Much of this can be attributed to UnluckyArtist\u2019s effects work \u2014 color manipulation both subtle and blatant, linear and Gaussian blurs used in careful restraint, psychedelic overlays that give the entire video a sense of otherworldliness. Past releases of his have always left me wanting when it comes to effects \u2014 UnluckyArtist\u2019s older videos are almost all good at the very least, but most of them are held back by poor or inconsistent integration of stock effects that end up marring what are otherwise sound videos conceptually and from a sync/pacing perspective.\nWith Blithe and Bonny, though, he seems to have finally cracked it. It is UnluckyArtist\u2019s brilliant application of the effects that make this video what it is \u2014 a strangely happy, hallucinatory kind of A/V LSD trip that depends not at all on any kind of emotional reaction from the viewer. Instead, all UnluckyArtist asks is that you take in the colors and the sounds and enjoy the video for what it is: one of the prettiest, most eye-catching AMVs made all year, presented on the canvas of KyoAni\u2019s most beautiful releases.\n9. PieandBeer \u2013 Polaris\nAnime: Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann\nMusic: Jose Gonzales \u2013 \u201cStay Alive\u201d\nI\u2019ve yet to see Gurren-Lagann, and it seems like the consensus amongst a lot of my anime-loving friends is that this is a kind of cardinal sin, something I need to rectify before I do anything else, because it\u2019s apparently a really good anime and I\u2019d really like it and blah blah blah. One of the reasons then that I was so excited after watching this video was that PieandBeer seems to have done all the work for me \u2014 watching this video imparts so much emotional energy and narrative force that actually sitting down to watch the series now would probably be redundant. Thanks PieandBeer!\nBut really, there\u2019s some truth to that \u2014 until Polaris was released I\u2019d never seen a TTGL video that communicated anything meaningful to me about the series; in fact, I remember nothing about the others, so little impression did they make. But Polaris is an exception, and I fell in love with this one instantly. I think about my end-of-the-year list year-round \u2014 I\u2019m always considering whether or not a video has the potential to be on there, and where it would hypothetically land if it did. Upon finishing this video for the first time I was absolutely certain it would crack my Top 10, and for most of the year I was pretty sure it\u2019d be in my Top 5. This is just a stunning drama piece, so simple and yet so communicative, honest, and heartfelt.\nPieandBeer made something really special here that I\u2019ve enjoyed watching again and again \u2014 a perfectly told, perfectly synced, perfectly paced story that I feel like I\u2019m able to completely lose myself in each time I watch it, as if I had never lost myself in it the last time I fired it up. I get a lot of flak from various people for the endless praise I heap onto PieandBeer\u2019s work, and for those of you who\u2019ve been around this blog for a while, you may be sick of it too. But it\u2019s not without reason that I love her stuff \u2014 she\u2019s able to make these videos that appeal to literally every facet of what I look for when I watch AMVs, consistently, and often without missing a beat. So long as she\u2019s putting out videos like this, you can bet I\u2019ll be writing about them.\n8. lolligerjoj \u2013 Ghost Audition\nAnime: Various (Ghibli)\nMusic: Floex \u2013 \u201cCasanova\u201d, \u201cUrsa Major\u201d, \u201cThe Castle\u201d\nIn a lot of ways, this is the safest video lolligerjoj has released thus far. He set a precedent with Into The Labyrinth, he got artsy and experimental with tan(x), he got ugly and aggressive with GEHIRNSTURMEN, and in each of those videos he was pushing his technical abilities in one direction or another. Him being one of the most influential editors on the scene, then, I\u2019m not lying when I say that as much as I liked Ghost Audition when I first watched it, I was more than a little disappointed to find that it was somewhat familiar territory; there was pretty much nothing in here that couldn\u2019t be found in one or more of lolli\u2019s past videos. The atmosphere, the effects work, even some of the 60 fps sync techniques were all old hat, and while it\u2019s hard to stay on the bleeding edge of trendsetting for long, lolli had bucked my expectations in the past so I wasn\u2019t sure what to expect with his release following last year\u2019s. All I know is that I think I was hoping for something a little more, well, surprising than what we got with Ghost Audition.\nAnd then I realized that thinking that way made me a huge hypocrite given the very thing I had written last year in my review of GEHIRNSTURMEN: \u201cAfter Into The Labyrinth, I think people felt like they were owed something as good with each successive release.\u201d I realized that I\u2019m not owed anything at all by lolli; he can make what he wants and I can enjoy it or not. I can analyze it up and down and pick apart the reasons this isn\u2019t as groundbreaking as I was hoping but that doesn\u2019t change anything \u2014 nor does it make me like the video any more or less.\nBecause I do like this video; in spite of the fact that I think lolli didn\u2019t push himself from a technical perspective at all with Ghost Audition, I can\u2019t help but feel like this is probably my favorite video of his. It creates a desperately uncertain atmosphere, exploring the joys and anxieties that characterize peoples\u2019 lives, from birth to death. It gets weird from time to time, like most of his work, using lots of trippy color and distortion effects to keep you continuously off-balance as a viewer, syncing to some sounds and not to others, inducing a ragged paranoia that leaves you winded by the end.\nAs a Ghibli video, this is probably about as far from a traditional Ghibli tribute as you\u2019re likely to get \u2014 if it relies on sentiment, that sentiment is completely divorced from the viewer\u2019s feelings about the various sources to be found here. While I think that lolli\u2019s choice to use Ghibli footage as the main sources was a personal one, this is not an homage in the usual sense. Instead he seems to be using sources that may be close to his heart to explore a different concept that is probably also very personal. In that sense this could be a kind of love letter to Ghibli, but written in a language none of us can read. As a critic, trying to unpack lolli\u2019s work is often an exercise in futility, but it\u2019s also what makes watching and talking about his work so much fun, and why I anticipate his releases so much \u2014 few editors put as much intentionality into their videos as lolli does, and then lock it so tightly behind abstraction and misdirection\u2026but man, those locks are fun to pick.\n7. neko kitkat \u2013 The Creationist\nAnime: Hinata no Aoshigure\nMusic: Kerli \u2013 \u201cThe Creationist\u201d\nIf you\u2019ve been keeping up with this list, and watching videos in the order that they\u2019re being presented, I\u2019d urge you to cherish this one, because the next few videos get really dark and heavy and while they\u2019re all obviously excellent videos, for the most part you might walk away from them feeling more than a bit drained. So watch this and store the positive energy until you get to the #2 video, which should (hopefully) cheer you up again!\nI admit that when I first saw this video as I was judging for 2016\u2019s AWA Pro contest, I was not completely sold on it until about the last third of the video. I can see now that I was totally, 100% wrong as the entire video is ridiculously solid, but in retrospect it\u2019s not hard to see why I thought this way \u2014 this video\u2019s climax is the best I saw all year, without a doubt, and the rest of the video just feels kind of plain in comparison. But don\u2019t let that change your expectations going in! This is another story-driven video, like so many others on this list, and neko kitkat does such a phenomenal job of pacing everything in here, from the scene selection to the character development to the beat sync. Although mostly externally synced, which I don\u2019t tend to prefer, this didn\u2019t bother me because it\u2019s so easy to get sucked into this video \u2014 all its parts move in such blissful harmony.\nBut most importantly, this is simply one of the most smile-inducing things I saw all year, helped in no small part by the cuteness of the story and the way it\u2019s told. A song more fitting probably doesn\u2019t exist, nor will it ever, so this video\u2019s existence feels like a kind of serendipitous act of grace that I won\u2019t soon forget, personally. That such optimism exists in video form, especially coming from a year that seems to have been defined by a lot of global turmoil and instability, reminds me of the power that AMVs can have both as a medium for expression and change, even if it\u2019s just to make one person happier for a few minutes.\n6. EnQuatre \u2013 Paradise Lost\nAnime: Shinsekai Yori\nMusic: Victoria Justice and Max Schneider \u2013 \u201cSay Something\u201d\nShinsekai Yori videos tend to all be along similar lines \u2014 brooding horror videos that focus on the brutality that\u2019s present in a choice few episodes, while expressly ignoring so much of the larger picture that defines the series. EnQuatre\u2019s Paradise Lost is the first \u2014 and thus far, only \u2014 video using this source that I\u2019ve seen which actually seems to capture the heart and soul of Shinsekai Yori: that of desolate loneliness.\nOne of the things that I loved about Shinsekai Yori was the world it built. The series is flawed in many aspects, but the thing that always held true through the series\u2019 ups and downs was that it had a fully realized, fascinating, mysterious world that oozed loneliness and despondency. EnQuatre accurately captures these feelings with his scene selection, focusing in on the main character Saki, and all the friends and things she loses over the course of the series. If you\u2019ve never seen Shinsekai Yori, this will be a confusing video to you \u2014 it\u2019s not a narrative as much as it is a collection of moments that help define a feeling, and unfortunately for outsiders many of these moments are highly contextual and won\u2019t mean anything specific. It jumps around to different points in the characters\u2019 lives, seemingly at random, and what narrative thread there might be gets quickly tangled with itself.\nThese aren\u2019t criticisms; they may have been when I first saw the video, but now I find EnQuatre\u2019s choice to present his video this way an effective vehicle for presenting a concept like this, which is so focused on capturing an emotion. Loneliness breeds despair, and the indiscriminate progression of the scenes in the video makes it come across as a kind of tragic, unordered memory reel; some scenes make sense together, some don\u2019t, but they all center around that single emotion, and at the end of the video you feel the sense of horrible isolation that permeates Saki\u2019s world, even if you don\u2019t fully understand it.\n5. Trenzilla \u2013 Death In Eden\nMusic: Breaking Benjamin \u2013 \u201cAshes of Eden\u201d\nMuch like Paradise Lost above, this video will probably not hit you very hard if you\u2019ve not seen Death Parade. But for those who have, this video is a welcome relief from the usual type of Death Parade videos \u2014 they tend to more along the lines of this, which while kinda cool in its own way I guess, doesn\u2019t really tap into what makes the series so absolutely worth watching: the characters.\nDeath In Eden explores the various stories and vignettes that follow the people who flit in and out of the series, giving them the just time and attention they deserve. It\u2019s not a chronological story; it jumps around from character to character and really just delves into their pasts, their tragedies, their accomplishments \u2014 basically everything that makes them interesting people. It does this in a really heavy way though, tending to focus more on the most humanizing properties of each person \u2014 his or her flaws. In many ways this could be said to be a tragic video \u2014 it certainly feels that way \u2014 but I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s really the point, much like the anime itself. It\u2019s a video that shows people at their basest, their most vulnerable, and lets you judge for yourself. It\u2019s not an easy video, and it\u2019s not exactly a happy one, but maybe that says more about human nature than anything.\nOn the editing side of things, this is a super simple video that focuses way more on the feeling and mood of the music than on the cuts and sync choices. Some people may find this off-putting, but I found it relatively easy to get behind, especially considering that this allows Trenzilla time to devote to really diving into these characters and who they are in a way that makes sense with the vibe and words of the song.\nThis is about as faithful a Death Parade video as I\u2019ve found, and one of the most thought-provoking videos I saw all year. It doesn\u2019t break any new ground or utilize any new techniques, and in fact ignores some of the basic ones that many people might think essential. But it\u2019s all in the name of making something that cuts right to the heart, and in the end, those videos are the ones that stick with you.\n4. PieandBeer \u2013 Fiat Lux\nMusic: Sleeping At Last \u2013 \u201cSun\u201d\nI knew it was going to happen. I knew it. She did it last year and she did it again this year \u2014 releasing a video right before I started publishing my list and throwing everything out of whack. Before this video was released, the order of this list looked a bit different, and I found myself with one extra video to account for (thus the 11 Honorable Mentions \u2014 I really wanted to write about all of those videos!). But man, as much trouble as it caused me, I can\u2019t really begrudge PieandBeer for this because what we got as a result was one of the absolute best videos of the year, and probably a video that will go down as one of my all-time favorites, something I will cherish and hold close for years and years to come.\nIn approach and execution, this video is strikingly similar to Polaris, so I\u2019ll just relax a minute while you go and re-read that review above\u2026okay, done? Fiat Lux demonstrates again the thing that I look for so often and so desperately in AMVs \u2014 an easy-to-follow and engaging story. You\u2019re probably sick of reading the 1,000th iteration of that idea by now, because this year has been shockingly good for story-driven AMVs, but it just goes to show how important an element this is, at least for my own enjoyment. Fiat Lux does this incredibly well \u2014 so well, in fact, that it could be held up as a kind of gold standard for any other editor attempting to do his or her own drama video. The lessons this video teaches are indispensible.\nBut it\u2019s also such an un-flashy video, using a source that is not exactly \u201cattractive\u201d\u2026although Satoshi Kon\u2019s works are all really well animated, they tend to take on more realistic qualities, including character design and color palettes, meaning that they\u2019re not necessarily the best material for drawing one\u2019s eye (see: Blithe and Bonny, above). I have to admit that the first time I watched this video, having never seen a Tokyo Godfathers video before and knowing nothing about it, I groaned a little inside upon the instant recognition that comes with Satoshi Kon\u2019s work. But PieandBeer, as she always does, proved that she can take anything I\u2019m skeptical about and turn it into something I can\u2019t get enough of.\n3. Tigrin \u2013 Stay With Us\nAnime: She and Her Cat \u2013 Everything Flows\nMusic: Gotye \u2013 \u201cBronte\u201d\nFair warning: if you are a pet owner, this video will destroy you. I don\u2019t know if before I saw Stay With Us, I\u2019d ever cried from an AMV \u2014 but I will shamelessly admit that this one broke me. I\u2019m actually not much of a crier in general, but all the times that I\u2019ve bawled my eyes out the worst have been directly related to my cats dying, so\u2026just know what you\u2019re getting into before you start this video. Make sure you\u2019re not in a public place, that kind of thing.\nStay With Us is a beautiful video not just because it reminds me of my cats who have passed on, but because it\u2019s a wonderful reminder to savor the time I have with my current cat, Kira. It\u2019s a video that fondly remembers all the good things that a pet can bring you \u2014 comfort, companionship, unconditional love \u2014 that can be so difficult to find elsewhere. It\u2019s a hard video to watch, but oh so worth it for those reasons alone.\nThe editing on it is completely understated, moving slowly and purposefully, letting you drink in the scenery and place yourself in it. There\u2019s nothing fancy about the video, it\u2019s nothing but cuts and fades, some really tear-jerking lyric sync, and a whole lot of heart. I wish I had more to say about this one because this review feels rather paltry compared to the other videos in my Top 10, but I also feel like this is the video that needs the least explanation or analysis from my end. It\u2019s simply a moving, heart-wrenching video, and little else needs to be said.\n2. neko kitkat \u2013 Black Water\nAnime: Legend of Zelda: The Windwaker\nMusic: Of Monsters & Men \u2013 \u201cBlack Water\u201d\nIt\u2019s hard to properly put into words how much I love this video. It\u2019s a video I never would have expected, given the age of Wind Waker at this point and the fact that it\u2019s not exactly the type of game that lends itself to a music video, the way other games might. And yet I can\u2019t imagine a video using this source being done one iota better \u2014 it\u2019s a perfect storm of every element being done at a level that complements every other element in a kind of synergy that\u2019s almost unheard-of.\nEven if you\u2019ve never played Wind Waker, you should hopefully be able to get a sense of the story, and if you can\u2019t get a sense of the story, you\u2019ll certainly get wind of the adventurous spirit that distinguishes this game and this series. For this video, neko kitkat took all the best things about the best types of videos \u2014 tight editing, emotional presentation, a climax that could destroy the Sun \u2014 and washed them in sentimentality and nostalgia, creating a video that, honestly, is worthy of the hyperbole that I\u2019ve already been throwing at it. I don\u2019t know the future, but I know a classic video when I see one, and I don\u2019t know if there\u2019s ever been a video that rocketed to that position faster than Black Water. I want more videos like this, and yet at the same time I recognize that this video\u2019s uniqueness is part of what makes it so special. This is one to savor, boys and girls, and one to keep on your hard drive, and on the cloud, and maybe on a flash drive too just in case the unthinkable happens and the Internet crashes and the video is unable to be obtained online ever again. Stuff like this doesn\u2019t come around very often, so it\u2019s worth cherishing and holding close.\n1. Nopy \u2013 Sky Journey\nMusic: Brookes Brothers \u2013 \u201cDaybreak\u201d\nGiven how much discord and anxiety helped to typify 2016, I wish I could say that my #1 video of the year fed into that in some way \u2014 either by giving a voice to all the drama, tragedies, and achievements that marked the year, or by providing some sort of meta-commentary on where we are and where we\u2019re going. Or, barring that, I wish this video said something meaningful about the AMV community at large, or provided some sort of statement about something that would clearly mark this as a defining video of the last 12 months.\nIt does none of these things. Sky Journey was actually released on the third day of the year in 2016, so it didn\u2019t have much time to formulate language about the ensuing insanity, not that it attempted to make any such statement at all anyway. No, this is not a really singular video, it doesn\u2019t really say much, and it certainly didn\u2019t provoke as much internal dialogue in myself as last year\u2019s #1 video (or even several videos on this list). But, this is actually perfectly okay \u2014 a video doesn\u2019t have to do any of these things to be considered my favorite\u2026I have enough videos like that elsewhere.\nSky Journey is a simple video with a simple concept, showing scenes that progress from morning to night and back again, with a focus on scenes that show the sky. You might think it\u2019s stupid, and pointless, but I personally love videos like this, and I wish there were more of them \u2014 videos that take a super simple, general concept that doesn\u2019t have any sophisticated narrative structure, and make something really beautiful and poignant with it. Mastamind\u2019s rainfall (on last year\u2019s list) is another video that does this well, as is chibidani\u2019s Miyazaki At Night. I find these videos fascinating in their own way, an intriguing break from more traditional types of AMVs.\nNopy\u2019s video here executes this concept exceedingly well; not only are his scene choices consistent and progressive, they are breathtakingly beautiful. So much of why I love this video lives in the scene selection, which transports the viewer from one beautiful sky scene to another, giving this overwhelming sense of vastness, especially in the latter half when we get to nighttime. It\u2019s a hugely expansive video that revels in grandeur and atmopshere, both in literal and figurative terms.\nNot every scene has characters in it; it\u2019s probably about a 50/50 split, but his choices for the scenes that do feature characters are also exceptional. Take, for instance, the shot of Kaori playing her violin against a sea of blue when the strings kick in around 1:30, or the shot of the girl from behind at 2:58 with a huge red moon in the background, or the couple standing on water staring out into the Milky Way at 3:41, or the girl playing the piano at 3:57, among countless others. All these scenes are so fantastical and whimsical and they give the video an ethereal vibe that I have simply never, ever felt before. This goes beyond nostalgia to something deeper in me, something much more responsive but much harder to access. I don\u2019t know if I can put a name to it, but the closest thing I can describe it as would be pure, unfiltered wonder.\nThis is all aided by the beautiful color schemes, all unedited, but simply chosen well from the pool of anime Nopy uses. Color is such a powerful tool for communicating meaning and feeling, and I think many editors forget this; though some, like Nostromo, use color in brilliant ways to convey purpose and manipulate your feelings, others understand the concept but overdo it. Nopy, whether intentionally or not, creates this world of gorgeous colors that are so in line with the music, it\u2019s hard to properly describe. The feelings this video generates from those colors, those scenes, are nothing like those found in other videos on this list like Fiat Lux or Black Water, but they\u2019re just as valid, and just as powerful.\nPeople who have read all the way through my list may wonder at my choice to put Sky Journey in the #1 slot. It\u2019s just a semi-random, multi-anime nothing video, something thrown together with no real heart or emotion or purpose that serves any kind of deeper meaning. And on most of those points, you may be right, but for myself, this video stuck with me through the year. Every time I watch it, I like it a little more. If I\u2019m feeling anxious or stressed, Sky Journey can settle me down. In an AMV scene that seems to put more and more stock in technical proficiency, Sky Journey is a perfect example of some of the most basic editing techniques that should be mastered before trying anything else. It\u2019s also a reminder that if you get the basics down, you don\u2019t really need to try anything else.\nMost importantly though, at least as far as my own personal experience is concerned, Sky Journey was the video I came back to more than any other this year, the video that I looked forward to watching more than any other, the video that stuck in my brain more than any other. Every other video on this list is great, and memorable, and has a worthy place in any 2016 retrospective, but Sky Journey was the video of 2016 for me, bar none, and it\u2019s something that I\u2019m so happy to share with you. I hope you enjoy it even a fraction as much as I do.\nEditor of the Year: neko kitkat\nIn a perfect world, choosing and Editor of the Year would be a real struggle; internal (perhaps external) arguments, comparing various editors\u2019 videos until my eyes were sore, and agonizing over my final choice until the moment it was posted \u2014 that\u2019s a best-case scenario, because it means that we have been treated to a lot of really good stuff by a lot of really good editors. This year, though, there was very little of any of that \u2014 in fact, of all the choices I had to make in compiling this list, choosing my Editor of the Year was one of my easiest tasks. This isn\u2019t because other editors were lacking in output, and hopefully the above 41 videos are proof enough of that. No, it\u2019s because neko kitkat outpaced any other editor that had a spitting chance this year. It was no contest.\nRegardless, my calling her Editor of the Year is not something I ever thought I\u2019d say. neko kitkat\u2019s been around for a while, and I\u2019m familiar with some of her past work \u2014 and it\u2019s never impressed me much. She\u2019s not an editor I ever deliberately kept up with, but it always seemed like whenever I decided to watch something from her, I\u2019d walk away unimpressed. Although one of her videos was on my list last year, that was about the best it had ever gotten for me and she was rarely on my radar as an editor to keep tabs on.\nThis year, all that changed, and I didn\u2019t even realize it at first \u2014 while participating in the blind judging for this year\u2019s AWA Pro contest, I was incredibly underwhelmed with the content, but there were a few videos that I had felt stood out not only compared to the stuff that surrounded them, but as good videos in their own right. It wasn\u2019t until a month or two after judging that the videos could be released, and both of them \u2014 The Creationist and Black Water \u2014 were revealed to have been edited by neko kitkat. I was shocked, and delighted.\nHer output this year has been prolific; although not all of it has been great, if you take a look at her YouTube channel you\u2019ll find a lot of other videos released this year, one of which (Dreamer) was not mentioned on here only because I didn\u2019t see it until I had already solidified this list past the point of wanting to move anything else around\u2026again. But even if the three videos of hers that made it onto my Top 30 were the only ones she had released all year, I doubt my choice would have been any different.\nShe\u2019s an editor who has been able to demonstrate the importance of storytelling, and the virtues of simple editing with some of the most moving and passionate AMVs released in 2016, by any editor. Her videos displayed her love of the sources, and her ability to communicate them to outsiders in profoundly engaging, meaningful ways. Other editors did this, but none did it better or more consistently, and for these reasons she is my choice for Editor of the Year.\nWell, here we are, at the end of my yearly retrospective, and standing on the cusp of a new year. I hope you enjoyed reading about and watching these videos as much as I\u2019ve enjoyed breaking them down and gushing over them. It bears repeating that this is one of my favorite things I do each year; you probably got a sense of that given how much I rambled over these last many posts, but ideally you got at least a little something out of it, or discovered something new and cool. If you did bother to read through all this mess, I sincerely thank you, and hope you\u2019ll stick around as I post about other geeky stuff in the coming months.\nAs promised, I\u2019ll provide a list of all the videos that I thought were good enough for consideration on this list. Just because they weren\u2019t represented here doesn\u2019t mean they aren\u2019t worth watching, so if you haven\u2019t had your fill of quality videos, please skim through this list; you might just find something you missed throughout the last year that touches you in a way that it didn\u2019t touch me. (Click here to see the list)\nThank you for joining me on this journey, and I look forward to a year from now when we\u2019ll do it all again. Have a great 2017!\n5 Responses to 2016 in retrospect: amvs (10 \u2013 1) // editor of the year\nThis is such a great post. I love your discussion of each video. Thanks so much for sharing.\nThank you very much for reading! I\u2019m glad you enjoyed :D\nPingback: In Case You Misssed It | 100WordAnime\nBlithe and Bonny and Ghost Audition have really stuck with me throughout 2016 and kind of defined it for me. Same for Sky Journey, to a lesser degree that\u2019s still a big accomplishment, imo.\nI held back from watching Polaris when it was released because I wanted to make my own Gurren Lagann AMV. A whole year later, I might be almost ready to get started on that (maybe, I don\u2019t know). But yeah, it\u2019s definitely another series you need to make time for.\nBlack Water was really great! It might be a linear retelling of the story of the game, so it\u2019s probably lame for me to criticize AMVs that take that approach but be completely nonjudgemental with a video like this, but so it is. This is so much better-edited than any other video game music video that I\u2019ve ever watched, it\u2019s not even close. Maybe I haven\u2019t looked very hard.\nI watched Fiat Lux for the first time like 2 or 3 days before Christmas (I wish I could honestly say that I found it on Christmas Eve but unfortunately that didn\u2019t work out like it should have). Really one of the best drama/sentimental videos I\u2019ve seen in a long time, and while I\u2019m not above enjoying a certain aount of emotional pandring, the thing is that PieandBeer didn\u2019t do that at all. Probably my favorite \u201csimple\u201d video of the year, however you want to define that.",

        "raw_content": "PNC, a bank holding company & financial services corporation, is the latest and one of the largest US banks to join the Ripple blockchain for cross-border payments. Many banks have joined the league riding the crest of promising future possibilities of distributed ledgers for global payments. It is positively a big leap for the collaborative efforts by the enterprise blockchain network, RippleNet, to support cross-border payments. With over $380 billion in assets, Pittsburg-based PNC Financial Services Group has become the latest member to join a global payments network of over 100 institutions including banks, payment providers, remittance forwarders and operators among other financial institutions to enable near-instant money transfers with on-demand liquidity and end-to-end tracking on a blockchain.\nPNC Bank, simply known as PNC, is also the fifth largest bank by a number of branches and the 4th largest with the most ATMs in the United States. The bank services over 8 million customers in 19 states in areas including retail, consumer-ended banking and corporate banking. While retail services (including consumer and small business banking) is predominantly offered to clients in the eastern states, PNC offers corporate and institutional banking across the country.\nRipple said in its announcement:\n\u201cRipple\u2019s technology will have an immediate impact on each of those groups, enabling PNC\u2019s commercial clients to receive payments from overseas banks in real time.\u201d\nAs an example, a commercial client of a business transaction situated in Pennsylvania will be able to receive payments from a UK buyer against the invoices instantly, Ripple explained, enabling the client or business owner to benefit from managing their working capital and accounts receivable.\nThe addition of PNC is arguably Ripple\u2019s biggest banking scoop for its flagship product, which notably doesn\u2019t use the XRP token, a cryptocurrency developed by Ripple. xRapid, a separate Ripple product which uses XRP for real-time liquidity in international transactions has seen relatively fewer adopters compared to the 100 (+) member-strong RippleNet.\nThe chief executive of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse has been affirming that dozens of banks & financial corporations will soon adopt XRP, by the end of 2019. On the same page, the chief regulatory relations in the countries of the Asia Pacific and the Middle East, Sagar Sarbhai is eager and enthusiastic about the buoyancy of wider commercial application for XRP based product & launch of the product live in production.",

As a result, a re-test of December lows near $3,100 could be on the cards. The probability of a sustained rise to $4,000 would rise if the from the 200-week moving average at $3,298 serves as strong support and ends up pushing prices above $3,658 (the high of last Saturday\u2019s gravestone doji candle).

Ageing children as adults for ICE\nThe Innocence Project takes on a DA with complaint to the NY Bar; DAs hate the idea of having any oversight to protect the public \u2192\n.https://www.propublica.org/article/blood-spatter-expert-robert-thorman-joe-bryan-case/amp?__twitter_impression=true\nBlood-Spatter Expert in Joe Bryan Case Says \u201cMy Conclusions Were Wrong\u201d\nThe expert whose testimony was key to Bryan\u2019s conviction for his wife\u2019s 1985 murder says he now believes that some of his techniques were incorrect. His admission comes as a judge considers whether Bryan, whose case was the subject of a ProPublica and New York Times Magazine investigation, should get a new trial.\nSept. 17, 7:49 p.m. EDT\nA hearing to determine whether Joe Bryan should be granted a new trial came to a dramatic conclusion on Monday with a surprise, eleventh-hour admission from the expert witness whose testimony had proved critical in convicting the former high school principal of the 1985 murder of his wife, Mickey.\n\u201cMy conclusions were wrong,\u201d retired police Detective Robert Thorman wrote in an affidavit introduced by the defense of the bloodstain-pattern analysis he performed. \u201cSome of the techniques and methodology were incorrect. Therefore, some of my testimony was not correct.\u201d\nBloodstain-pattern analysis is a forensic discipline whose practitioners regard the drops, spatters and trails of blood at a crime scene as clues, which can sometimes be used to reverse-engineer the crime itself. Thorman had only 40 hours of training in the discipline when he was called in to work on the Bryan case. His testimony about a blood-speckled flashlight that Mickey\u2019s brother found in the trunk of Bryan\u2019s car four days after the murder made the state\u2019s tenuous theory of the crime seem plausible.\nAt Bryan\u2019s trial in 1986 and then again at his 1989 retrial, Thorman testified that tiny flecks of blood on the flashlight could only be \u201cback spatter\u201d \u2014 a pattern that indicated a close-range shooting. What connection the flashlight had to the crime, if any, was never clear; in 1985, a crime lab chemist found that the blood on it was type O, which corresponded not only to Mickey but to nearly half the population. But Thorman effectively tied the flashlight to the crime scene, going so far as to say that the killer had likely held the flashlight in one hand while firing a pistol with the other.\nBryan had been attending a principals\u2019 convention in Austin, 120 miles from where the murder occurred in Clifton, Texas, in the days surrounding the murder. He has always maintained that he was in Austin, asleep in his hotel room, at the time of the crime.\nDuring both trials, Thorman also helped explain away one of the biggest holes in the state\u2019s case: no blood was ever found in the interior of Bryan\u2019s Mercury, though the prosecution alleged that Bryan fled the messy crime scene in his car. Thorman provided an explanation for this, asserting that the killer had changed his clothes and shoes in the master bathroom of the Bryan home before making his escape.\n\u201cIn no way did I lie in my report or testimony,\u201d Thorman stated in his affidavit, which is dated Sept. 13. \u201cI was doing what I thought was correct as a result of my training at the time.\u201d Thorman, who is now 80, did not specify which parts of his testimony had been incorrect.\nThe affidavit was read aloud on the stand by Montgomery County crime scene investigator Celestina Rossi, who had previously challenged the accuracy of Thorman\u2019s analysis. Prosecutors, who glanced at each other repeatedly as she read the affidavit, appeared taken off guard.\nSign up for the Blood Will Tell newsletter to get updates on Joe Bryan\u2019s case, and learn more about Pamela Colloff\u2019s reporting on bloodstain pattern analysis.\nIn May, Bryan\u2019s case was the subject of a two-part investigation by ProPublica and The New York Times Magazine, which questioned the accuracy of the bloodstain-pattern analysis used to convict him. The series highlighted the scant training of some law enforcement officers, who nevertheless go on to testify in criminal cases as expert witnesses.\nIn July, Bryan\u2019s case commanded the attention of the forensics community when the Texas Forensic Science Commission \u2014 which investigates complaints about the misuse of forensic testimony and evidence in criminal cases \u2014 announced that the blood-spatter analysis used to convict him was \u201cnot accurate or scientifically supported.\u201d\nThen, on Aug. 20, the evidentiary hearing got underway in the central Texas town of Comanche. For three days, Bryan\u2019s attorneys presented a succession of witnesses who testified that the bloodstain-pattern analysis used to convict Bryan was faulty, and that new evidence pointed to an alternative suspect in the killing, a now-deceased Clifton police officer named Dennis Dunlap.\nOn Aug. 22, Judge Doug Shaver declared an extended recess so that DNA testing could be performed on the flashlight.\nAt the hearing on Monday, Brent Watson, a DNA analyst with the Texas Department of Public Safety Crime Lab in Waco, took the stand to testify about the results of his examination. Watson explained that he tested six minute stains on the flashlight. Five of those stains came back negative for the presence of blood. The sixth stain tested positive, but whose blood it was could not be determined.\nA partial DNA profile on the lens of the flashlight yielded little information. Whether or not Mickey was a contributor to that profile, Watson said, was inconclusive. \u201cDegradation had an effect on my ability to obtain complete DNA profiles,\u201d he said of the 32-year-old evidence.\nWatson, however, was able to glean more information from a partial DNA profile he developed by swabbing the handle of the flashlight for DNA. \u201cJoe and Mickey were excluded as contributors,\u201d he said.\nJessica Freud, one of Bryan\u2019s attorneys, seized on these uncertainties, asking Watson, \u201cIs the state of Texas able to show that Mickey\u2019s blood or DNA is present on the flashlight?\u201d\n\u201cNo, it is not,\u201d Watson replied.\nWatson went on to testify about another notorious piece of evidence from Bryan\u2019s two trials: a pair of Bryan\u2019s discarded underwear, which was found in the couple\u2019s master bathroom wastebasket during the 1985 investigation. At that time, a state crime lab analyst determined that the underwear was stained with semen that matched Bryan\u2019s blood type, and she testified to this fact at both trials. But current testing protocols, Watson said, showed no evidence of semen on the underwear.\nThe semen-stained underwear had been used to great effect by the prosecution at both of Bryan\u2019s trials. At Bryan\u2019s first trial, the Bosque County district attorney at the time, Andy McMullen, had argued that it was \u201cevidence of a kind of perverted behavior.\u201d The prosecution had always insinuated, Freud told the court, that Bryan had been aroused by the act of killing his wife.\nBy the close of the hearing, there appeared to be little left of the state\u2019s case. No one could say whose blood was on the flashlight, how that blood had been deposited or when the blood was left there. Nor was it any clearer who had put the flashlight in the trunk of Bryan\u2019s Mercury and when. No semen was found to be present on the underwear. Thorman\u2019s bloodstain-pattern analysis had been debunked.\nIn his closing arguments, the current Bosque County DA, Adam Sibley, focused on two plastic particles that were found on the flashlight lens. At both trials, an investigator and a crime lab technician had testified that the particles possessed the same characteristics as birdshot shell fragments found at the crime scene. These particles, Sibley said, \u201cproved the flashlight was at the scene of the crime.\u201d Sibley noted that neither Tom Bevel, the state\u2019s bloodstain-pattern analyst, nor Rossi, the defense\u2019s expert, could \u201celiminate the flashlight from the scene.\u201d\nWhen Freud rose to address the courtroom, she ticked off the lengthy list of questionable evidence and odd circumstances that had allowed Bryan to be convicted, twice, of his wife\u2019s murder: The bad science. The flashlight that had been allowed into evidence even though no chain of custody had ever been established. The underwear that was not actually stained with semen. The special prosecutor paid for by Mickey\u2019s brother, Charlie Blue, even though Blue, because he discovered the flashlight, was the case\u2019s star witness. \u201cIt not only gives the appearance of impropriety, it is improper,\u201d Freud said.\nShe argued that jurors in Bryan\u2019s trials had never had heard compelling evidence that suggested Dunlap, who hanged himself in 1996, could have killed Mickey. After his death, Clifton police launched an investigation in which they determined that he had killed a 17-year-old high school student named Judy Whitley just four months before Mickey\u2019s murder. During that inquiry, an ex-wife of Dunlap\u2019s told investigators that he had boasted of being with the principal\u2019s wife on the night she died. Freud played a brief portion of that interview aloud, and spectators in the crowded courtroom strained to listen.\n\u201cThere is nothing left,\u201d Freud said of the state\u2019s case, in closing. \u201cThere is nothing left here.\u201d\nA new trial, she said, should be devoid of faulty bloodstain-pattern analysis and irrelevant evidence, like the underwear; it should not be tried by a special prosecutor paid for by the victim\u2019s family; and it should \u201cpermit a full and fair presentation of all of the exculpatory evidence to a jury.\u201d She added: \u201cIf they\u2019re going to retry him, make them do it the right way. They\u2019ve never done it the right way.\u201d\nBefore she concluded, she turned to Shaver. \u201cJoe was in Austin,\u201d she said, her voice rising with emotion. \u201cHe never left. He is innocent. Always has been.\u201d\nThe case will be on hold until Nov. 9, when the state and defense will present their written conclusions about the hearing to Shaver. The judge will then recommend to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals whether Bryan should receive a new trial. That court\u2019s justices will be the final arbiters.\nMany of Bryan\u2019s supporters who crowded the courtroom on Monday \u2014 from his former high school students to ex-Clifton Record editor Leon Smith, who has spent decades chronicling Bryan\u2019s case \u2014 were disappointed that a potential resolution would be further postponed. Bryan had listened attentively throughout the hearing, sitting behind his attorneys in a black-and-white prison jumpsuit, but he looked deflated at the news, his shoulders sagging at the thought of yet another delay. Bryan, who suffers from congestive heart failure, will turn 78 on Friday.\n\u201cHow much longer will he have to wait?\u201d said the Rev. Carroll Pickett, who served as the prison chaplain for Texas\u2019 death row for more than a dozen years, as he stood outside the Comanche County Courthouse. \u201cI\u2019ve known Joe for 31 years, and I have yet to hear any evidence that he committed this crime.\u201d\nThis entry was posted in criminal justice reform, CSI, junk forensic science, Wrongful Conviction.

        "raw_content": "Homelessness, income disparity and housing costs rise\nby Caitlin Emma\nFamily homelessness, income disparity and the number of households burdened by housing costs increased in the last year as Connecticut remains one of the most expensive states in which to own or rent a home, according to a report issued by the Partnership for Strong Communities Monday.\nThe partnership used data compiled by a number of agencies in forming the report, including the U.S. Census Bureau, the Connecticut Coalition to End Homelessness (CCEH), the Connecticut Housing Coalition, the National Low Income Housing Coalition and the U.S. Department of Commerce\u2019s Bureau of Economic Analysis.\nChristy Rubenstein, a senior policy analyst for the Partnership, said the homelessness data was one of the most striking issues.\n\u201cThere\u2019s been a change in the demographic of homelessness,\u201d she said. \u201cThere are more families attending shelters and a lot of adults pointed out that it was their first experience being homeless. I think it shows how the economic downturn is affecting everyone.\u201d\nCCEH found the number of homeless families, or unsheltered adults with children, rose 15 percent between 2010 and 2011. CCEH measured homelessness in the state on one night in January 2011, called its \u201cPoint in Time Count.\u201d The PIT count showed a total of 4,451 homeless people in one night, an overall 8 percent increase since 2009.\nRubenstein said homelessness proves a multifaceted issue and with more families seeking help, shelters need to meet different needs.\n\u201cConsider a 68-year-old homeless man who\u2019s been homeless for 20 years and compare it to a homeless family with three children,\u201d she said. \u201cThey have different needs.\u201d\nThe Homeless Management Information System (HMIS), administered by CCEH, showed Connecticut\u2019s homeless shelters operating at full capacity in 2010. The partnership also used data from the United Way of Connecticut\u2019s 2-1-1 Infoline and its requests received for housing services, from homeless shelters to rent payment assistance. Requests rose to 90,074 in 2010 from 72,251 in 2009 and based on requests received through August, United Way of Connecticut predicts a higher number for 2011.\nRubenstein said a complete number of homeless people proves hard to quantify because PIT, HMIS and United Way of Connecticut only count the numbers attending shelters.\n\u201cThese numbers don\u2019t count the people who we call \u2018bubbled up,\u2019 or living with friends and family,\u201d she said. \u201cConsider also the homeless youth who are couch surfing and avoiding being placed in the system by DCF [Department of Children and Families]. We consider these people homeless, too.\u201d\nShe said chronic homelessness, or repeated homelessness over a number of years, also increased by 26 percent among single adults since 2009.\n\u201cSome of this could be attributed to more families using the shelters,\u201d she said. \u201cIf more families use the shelters, more single adults get pushed out.\u201d\nIncome disparity also widened in 2010, providing no relief for those teetering on the edge homelessness and living in unaffordable housing. The lowest household income for 20 percent of state residents in 2010 fell to $13,696 from $14,525 in 2009. The highest paid 20 percent of state residents made an average of $233,617 in 2010, down from $238,354 in 2009.\n\u201cConnecticut has some of the highest incomes per capita and still one of the greatest records of income disparity in the nation,\u201d Rubenstein said. \u201cWhen that happens, all kinds of weird things will come out of the housing market.\u201d\nThe report showed more people looking to rent, driving up rental prices, while median incomes and housing prices declined. Even though housing prices dropped, a lower median income still makes owning a home unaffordable in many cases, driving people to rent property.\nFifty-one percent of Connecticut renters and 37 percent of home owners spent 30 percent of their income on housing, the report showed. The Partnership\u2019s current report and a report put out in August deem 112 of 169 communities \u201cunaffordable\u201d for families earning the state\u2019s medium income and paying for a median-priced home. About 27 percent of households proved severely burdened by renting costs, spending almost 50 percent of their income on rent.\nRubenstein said the current administration earned the partnership\u2019s approval by spending $130 million on developing more affordable housing.\n\u201cThe current administration has been great with this,\u201d she said.\nShe said the state still needs to continue investing in the state\u2019s Rental Assistance Program offered by the Department of Social Services, while investing in new affordable housing initiatives. The report cautioned that a shifting housing market could mean much of Connecticut\u2019s current stock of affordable housing may not meet future needs.\nCaitlin Emma",

        "raw_content": "Mormons ask court to silence preacher who believes their church is a cult\nThe Telegraph/November 25, 2004\nBy David Millward\nAn evangelical Christian accused of harassing the Mormon church spent nearly three hours knocking on an elder's door, the High Court was told yesterday.\nAndrew Price, a preacher with the Church of England (Continuing) visited Elder Dustin Shaver at his home in Walthamstow, north London in September as part of his campaign against the Mormons.\nElder Shaver was not the only reluctant recipient of Mr Price's evangelising, Fenner Moeran, the Mormons' counsel, told Mr Justice Beatson.\nOn one night in August Mr Price bombarded Mormons - members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - with phone calls. He made 90 in less than four hours.\nMr Price also sent more than 80 evangelical texts from his mobile phone to a handset belonging to Elder Daniel Pitt over a period of two months.\nThe court was shown several videos of Mr Price in action. In one he was preaching in stentorian tones from behind metal railings at one of the Mormon church's London chapels.\nIn a second he was \"evangelising\" outside a metal gate to a garage at the Mormons' chapel in Hyde Park and in the third, he was at the door of the Mormons' offices in South Kensington.\nThe court heard how on Oct 28 Mr Price pursued three Mormons from their London headquarters in Exhibition Road, South Kensington to the Tube station.\nHe followed them on the Circle Line and Victoria Line until they finished their journey at Blackhorse Road in north London.\nThroughout the journey Mr Price was trying to show them the error of their ways.\n\"I was addressing them and they were listening\" he said. \"In one sense I was preaching in so far as one Christian was speaking to them about the gospel.\"\nThe Mormon church has argued that Mr Price has taken evangelising too far and has asked the High Court to grant it an injunction to prevent him from continuing his protests outside its properties. It wants him kept at least 30 yards from any of its churches throughout the country. It also wants him banned from making calls to Mormons' mobile phones unless invited to do so.\nBut giving evidence yesterday Mr Price, 44, of Chiswick, west London said he believed it was his duty to inform people of what the religion stood for.\n\"I would describe Mormonism in its presentation as being like the Venus fly trap.\n\"There is something attractive which lures an insect into the body of the plant. Then it closes and the plant is happy because it has its prey.\"\nMr Price, who admitted he often spent six days a week preaching outside Mormon churches, denied he had shouted or screamed at worshippers.\n\"I have some experience of the effect talking and preaching has on the human voice,\" he said.\n\"It is simply not possible for a person to be shouting, screaming and ranting for a long period of time. The voice would go.\"\nAdmitting that his voice was stronger than most, Mr Price insisted that he was not addressing those inside the Mormon buildings but passers-by and visitors.\n\"It was my intention to bring to the public attention the nature of this body. It is a cult.\"\nCross-examined by Mr Moeran, he admitted that he spent considerable amounts of time preaching his message.\n\"I could be outside their buildings for eight hours a day, maybe longer,\" said Mr Price who describes himself as Britain's leading critic of the Mormon church.\nChallenged why he had persisted in trying to contact Mormon missionaries, despite their pleas to be left alone, Mr Price said many had been brainwashed.\nAsked whether he would abide by the terms of an injunction, Mr Price said: \"My wife and I will have to make a lot of decisions.\n\"As far as I am concerned the Mormon people need help.\"",

        "raw_content": "Guidelines for Opus Dei in Westminster Diocese: Statement by Cardinal Basil HumeDecember 2, 1981\nFor a considerable time I have studied carefully certain public criticisms made about the activities of Opus Dei in Britain and I have also examined the correspondence addressed to me on the same subject. Some of these letters have been critical; some have expressed sincere admiration for the personal qualities of members of Opus Dei and appreciation of their influence. I have also had meetings with those responsible for Opus Dei in this country.\nOpus Dei is a movement of priests and lay-people within the Church which has the official approval of the Holy See. However, in so far as it is established within the diocese of Westminster, I have a responsibility, as bishop, to ensure the welfare of the whole local Church as well as the best interest of Opus Dei itself.\nAs a result of this study I have made known to those responsible for Opus Dei in this country what I consider to be the right recommendations for the future activity of its members within the diocese of Westminster. I now wish to make public these four recommendations. Each of them arises from one fundamental principle: that the procedures and activities of an international movement, present in a particular diocese, may well have to be modified prudently in the light of the cultural differences and legitimate local customs and standards of the society within which that international body seeks to work.\nThese recommendations must not be seen as a criticism of the integrity of the members of Opus Dei or of their zeal in promoting their apostolate. I am making them public in order to meet understandable anxieties and to encourage sound pastoral practice within the diocese.\nThe four recommendations are as follows:\nNo person under eighteen years of age should be allowed to take any vow or long-term commitment in association with Opus Dei.\nIt is essential that young people who wish to join Opus Dei should first discuss the matter with their parents or legal guardians. If there are, by exception, good reasons for not approaching their families, these reasons should, in every case, be discussed with the local bishop or his delegate.\nWhile it is accepted that those who join Opus Dei take on the proper duties and responsibilities of membership, care must be taken to respect the freedom of the individual: first, the freedom of the individual to join or to leave the organization without undue pressure being exerted; secondly, the freedom of the individual at any stage to choose his or her own spiritual director, whether or not the director is a member of Opus Dei.\nInitiatives and activities of Opus Dei, within the diocese of Westminster, should carry a clear indication of their sponsorship and management.\nI am confident that these four guidelines will in no way hinder Opus Dei in the apostolic work to which it has committed itself, but will help it to adapt to the traditional spirituality and instincts of our people. I will naturally remain in close touch with priests and members of Opus Dei within the diocese of Westminster.",

People, events, and places will shape your life and your idea of the truth. Your parents, family, and teachers, also known as the \u201cwise\u201d, will teach you your basic morals and ethics when you are a child. As you grow society and culture will continue to expand your ideas and opinions. You will pick and choose what you believe and what you oppose. You will face challenges and events that will shape you. Those moments may create negative emotions or open your eyes. The way you handle or react to those situations will be affected by your own personal opinion. The opinion that has been growing since you entered this consciousness. You may not even realize what has influenced you or where your opinions and emotions towards something began. It has been growing over years of experience and the people influencing your life. It comes from the way you are treated and what you were told to believe. The truth of the matter is that you cannot truly understand any situation or have any belief without observing something from all points of view. You cannot have hatred towards the opposition without understanding that maybe their truth is different than yours. You can trust your own heart. You can trust your own mind. You must trust your own gut. But be willing to accept someone else as they are. They have their own heart. They have their own mind. They have their own gut. Be willing to see through their eyes and see where they have been. They may have been shaped and molded differently than you. They may have been hurt or damaged. They may have been sheltered, abandoned, or loved too much. Be willing to accept others and their experiences and idea of truth. What you know is personal. What they know is personal.\nIn sharing and teaching yoga to others, I believe it is important to acknowledge differences. We all come from different backgrounds. We all have faced different obstacles in life. We may not see eye to eye. But when teaching it is important to bring in ideas that any person can understand. Heart break. Loss. Strength. Discomfort. Being nervous. Being excited. Happiness. We can all relate on those basic levels. We can all come together no matter who or what we are and we can create community. We can drop what we know and accept each other as we are and as we are in our practice.\nIn our practice we can accept every pose as yoga. I believe in giving others and myself space. We cannot look at a person and know what they have faced that day. We cannot judge someone for stepping out of their pose. We cannot say what is and isn\u2019t yoga. We can accept our own practice and accept ourselves as we are. We can also push ourselves to open our minds and seek the truth. We can also see other\u2019s truths. We can practice outside of the studio. We can practice in our everyday lives.\nI believe that you can take every lesson you learn in your practice and experience and apply it to the way you treat others. You can apply it to your life. You can choose to listen to someone who may not see eye to eye with you. You can actively listen. You can show people a kind way of being, in hope they will give that same kindness to someone else. Maybe they will give that kindness to someone they disagree with. Maybe they will pass on that acceptance that you gave to them. You can make an attempt to relate their situation or belief to your own. You can embrace differences. You can put aside opinions or differences. You can give love to every person you meet in your life and accept their experience. Everything I have experienced and everything you have experienced has been influenced throughout this life we have led. If you, I, and everyone in this world can put aside our differences and treat each other with kindness we can overcome any point of view and find truth. You can know your personal truth. But don\u2019t let your knowledge block you from seeing someone else\u2019s truth.",

        "raw_content": "Posted on March 11, 2014 October 19, 2014 by Derrick\nDreamWorks Animation/Pacific Data Images/Bullwinkle Studios/20th Century Fox\nProduced by Alex Schwartz and Denise Nolan Cascino\nScreenplay by Craig Wright\nBased on \u201cPeabody\u2019s Improbable History\u201d by Ted Key\nThere have been many time travel movies and TV shows I\u2019ve enjoyed. \u201cDoctor Who\u201d \u201cThe Time Tunnel\u201d \u201cVoyagers!\u201d \u201cBack To The Future\u201d \u201cThe Time Machine\u201d \u201cBill and Ted\u2019s Excellent Adventure\u201d \u201cSeven Days\u201d \u201cLife On Mars\u201d \u201cTime After Time\u201d \u201cTime Bandits\u201d But my favorite time travelers are without a doubt MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN. I loved the \u201cRocky & Bullwinkle\u201d show as a kid and the \u201cMr. Peabody\u2019s Improbable History\u201d episodes were a particular favorite of mine. Highly entertaining and educational, each episode would see Mr. Peabody and Sherman going back to some pivotal moment in history via The Wayback Machine, a time travel machine invented by the hyper-intelligent Mr. Peabody. The Wayback would transport Mr. Peabody and Sherman to Washington\u2019s crossing the Delaware or Benjamin Franklin flying a kite attempting to discover electricity or Alexander Graham Bell about to make his first phone call. Something would always go wrong and it was up to Mr. Peabody with the capable assistance of Sherman to make sure that history played out the way it was supposed to. Every episode would always end with Mr. Peabody making some kind horrible pun that always was rewarded with a groan and face palm from Sherman.\nThe full length movie MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN necessarily has to put a lot of meat on the bare bones of those short seven minute cartoons to fill out 90 minutes but thankfully it manages to stay true to the spirit of the characters and the premise. Mr. Peabody (Ty Burrell) is still a hyper-intelligent talking dog who wears glasses and a red bow tie. Mr. Peabody is a business tycoon, scientific genius, Presidential advisor, Nobel laureate, expert swordsdog, martial artist and gourmet chef. But he\u2019s still lacking something in his life. Despite his accomplishments, he\u2019s lonely. He finds an orphan baby named Sherman (Max Charles) and decided to adopt him, his argument being that if a boy can adopt a dog, why can\u2019t a dog adopt a boy?\nI though it charming that never once does MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN stop to explain why Mr. Peabody can talk, walk on his hind legs and is apparently the smartest being on the planet but it takes a considerable amount of time to clarify the relationship between him and Sherman and indeed, most of the movie explores their lives in a way that the animated episodes simply didn\u2019t have time for. The plot kicks in when Sherman has to start attending public school. Naturally Sherman\u2019s having been home schooled by Mr. Peabody for seven years and taking numerous trips into the past via The Wayback Machine has given him a distinct advantage over the other students and earns him the wrath of classmate Penny Peterson (Ariel Winter) Penny\u2019s horrendous bullying of Sherman provokes him into biting her and calling into question Mr. Peabody\u2019s fitness to parent a human boy.\nMr. Peabody invites the Petersons (Stephen Colbert and Leslie Mann) over for dinner along with Mrs. Grunion (Allison Janney) of the Children\u2019s Services so that they can all resolve the situation amicably. Sherman is left to entertain Penny and once again he is provoked by her to the point where he takes her for a joyride in The Wayback Machine to impress her. This sets off a chain of increasingly wild and dangerous adventures in Ancient Egypt, The Trojan War and other periods of history that lead up to a disruption in the space time continuum and the possible destruction of time itself unless Mr. Peabody and Sherman can put time back the way it was.\nThere are some minor changes to the original story of how Mr. Peabody and Sherman met but I didn\u2019t mind as I understand where the screenplay was going with this and the movie emphasizes the relationship between dog and boy to go for an emotionally satisfying conclusion to compliment the last ditch effort to save the world ending and I didn\u2019t mind because the final lines spoken by Mr. Peabody and Sherman to each other put a big grin on my face and any movie that does that is okay by me.\nThe characterization of Mr. Peabody is tweaked a bit here as he\u2019s not as arrogant and condescending as he is in the cartoons. Sherman is still the same sweet kid he always was, totally devoted to his \u201cdad\u201d and living an incredibly extraordinary life with a level head and unshakable optimism. In fact, there\u2019s only two times in the movie when he\u2019s truly scared and worried and one of those times is when he thinks he\u2019s going to be taken away from Mr. Peabody.\nBut the character of Penny Peterson is highly distasteful. A sadistic, severely disturbed brat with a destructive streak as wide as the West Side Highway, she\u2019s one of the creepiest characters I\u2019ve ever seen in an animated movie. To give the screenplay credit, it doesn\u2019t cop out by making Penny just another misunderstood kid who would change her ways if somebody just gave her a hug. Nah, this kid is The Bad Seed, trust me.\nSo should you see MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN? If you\u2019re a fan of the original cartoons you should definitely enjoy it. And if you\u2019ve never seen those cartoons, don\u2019t let that stop you. The biggest change here is that The Wayback Machine is now an actual time machine Mr. Peabody & Sherman travel in instead of a doorway they simply step through but again, I understand why it was done and as I said earlier, as long as the spirit of the original is maintained, I\u2019m along for the ride. And what a fun ride it is. Highly Recommended.\nTags: Animated Movie, Mr. Peabody, Peabody\u2019s Improbable History, Penny Peterson, Sherman, Stephen Colbert, Ted Key, The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show, Wayback MachineCategories: A Particular Favorite Of Mine\nPrevious300: Rise Of An Empire\nNextThe Grand Budapest Hotel",

        "title": "Senate Health Bill Dangerous for California Kids and Families - California Health Care Foundation",
        "raw_content": "By Mike Odeh\nUS Senate leaders are rushing to get a health care bill passed. Like the American Health Care Act (AHCA), which was passed by the House of Representatives in May, the Senate\u2019s Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA) proposal (PDF) poses serious and devastating threats to California\u2019s kids and families. In fact, the BCRA would result in an estimated 539,000 California children losing insurance (PDF).\nAny Medicaid cuts are bad for kids. Medicaid, or Medi-Cal as it\u2019s known in California, covers over half of California\u2019s kids and provides comprehensive benefits for children. New research confirms that Medicaid is even more important for the health of rural kids. In California\u2019s small towns and rural areas, 54% of children are covered by Medi-Cal, compared to 44% of kids in metro areas.\nCompared to children without health insurance, kids with Medi-Cal do better in school, miss fewer school days, are more likely to graduate from high school and college, have fewer emergency room visits and hospitalizations as adults, and earn more money as adults. At the community level, Medicaid is an important source of funding to safety-net providers, community clinics, and hospitals.\nThe BCRA gets an \u201cF\u201d for protecting Medicaid. The bill would dramatically restructure Medicaid financing (PDF) by capping federal funds going to the program. This essentially shifts huge costs to the states to maintain coverage and care. California\u2019s Department of Health Care Services estimates that the BCRA would shift more than $114 billion in costs to California between 2020 and 2027.\nSchool Medi-Cal Services Put at Risk\nThe BCRA would also shift the costs of providing school-based health services and special education services, which Medicaid now pays for, to school districts and the state. School districts rely on Medicaid to cover the costs for special education services (such as physical therapy) and equipment (like feeding tubes) to serve low-income students and those with disabilities. Without this support, schools will struggle to provide high-quality services them and will have great difficulty complying with federal mandates associated with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Medicaid also is an important source of coverage for preventive care, such as vision and hearing screenings and immunizations, for other Medicaid-eligible children. Losing Medicaid-supported services in school will hurt children and disrupt students\u2019 learning opportunities.\nBCRA supporters misleadingly claim to provide \u201cprotection\u201d for some children who are determined to have a disability. The bill proposes to exempt them from the Medicaid per-capita cap. Unfortunately this means very little when the base program providing that coverage is stripped of funding at the scale proposed by the BCRA. And in California, if a Medicaid cap would be bad for the 180,000 \u201cmedically complex\u201d children with Medi-Cal, then why would it not also be risky for the other 5.6 million California children who get their health care through Medicaid?\nThe BCRA would also undermine the private health insurance markets used by California families and businesses to purchase coverage. The bill would repeal the Affordable Care Act\u2019s health insurance premium tax credits and cost-sharing reductions and replace them with less generous subsidies to fewer families. This risks destabilizing the Covered California marketplace, which covers 77,000 kids and nearly 1.4 million adults.\nWidespread Negative Effects\nThe BCRA would undermine the ability of families to access health care and the chance for local communities to prosper. Like the AHCA, under the Senate bill we can expect to see millions of Californians lose Medicaid coverage (PDF) and the loss of thousands of public and private sector jobs in California, making job-based health coverage even less available to hard-working families. As we all know, children live in families, and when a parent\u2019s or family member\u2019s coverage is threatened, the whole family suffers. That\u2019s bad for kids.\nIf health insurance is unavailable or fails to provide real protections to families, then we will be right back in the bad old days when health care was a greater burden on the budgets of California families and half of all bankruptcies were attributable to medical debt. The threats from these federal health care bills are causing more than half of all Californians to worry that they or their family members will lose health coverage.\nIt is shameful that the BCRA does not have even a single provision that makes kids\u2019 lives better, which is why pediatricians immediately declared that the BCRA \u201cfails children.\u201d Health care legislation must meet the very low bar of at least doing no harm to kids.\nFor more on the potential impact of the BCRA, read \u201cWhere\u2019s the \u2018Better Care\u2019 in Senate Health Bill?,\u201d \u201cA Brazen Plan to Dismantle Medicaid,\u201d and \u201cMedi-Cal Enrollment of Seniors and People with Disabilities, County by County.\u201d\nConsumer Experience, Eligibility, Medi-Cal, The CHCF Blog\nMike Odeh is the director of health policy at Children Now, California\u2019s leading children\u2019s advocacy organization. Mike has been supporting Children Now\u2019s health policy efforts for more than seven years, where his focus has primarily been on health coverage, Medi-Cal financing, access, quality, and healthy child development.

Now I was hooked right off the bat upon hearing \u201cWhatever People Say I Am, That\u2019s What I\u2019m Not\u201d (2006), this was before electronic music latched onto me, and I was lovin\u2019 on The Strokes, Bloc Party, Coldplay and Interpol. Once Arctic Monkeys dropped that first record they instantly blew up; the album became the fastest selling debut album in UK chart history. I mention charts sometimes, which can be interesting in their own way, but the album speaks for itself. You can hear the entire record above.\nSophomore albums can be difficult to nail, but similar to Bloc Party, the Arctic Monkeys returned with an evolved sound on \u201cFavourite Worst Nightmare\u201d (2008). Favorites include \u201cDo Me A Favour\u201d, \u201cOld Yellow Bricks\u201d, \u201cFluorescent Adolescent\u201d and of the massive \u201cBrianstorm\u201d. The full album is posted here as well.\nArctic Monkeys \u2013 Facebook Twitter\nTags Arctic Monkeys, UK\nRight now, I feel a bit jaded. I\u2019m searching for something and a lot of what I\u2019m seeing/hearing isn\u2019t connecting with me. Tame Impala continues to be a wonderful exception. They confidently embody a mindset I long to have, and have shown tremendous growth since the release of their first album, \u201cInnerspeaker\u201d. I\u2019m eagerly awaiting the release of my favorite band\u2019s new record entitled, \u201cLonerism\u201d. Look for it on October 9th in the U.S. via Modular People.\nTame Impala \u2013 Facebook Twitter\nTags Lonerism, Modular People, Tame Impala\nA-Trak on DJ\u2019s and Live EDM Performance\nMany of A-Trak\u2019s comments in his well-written article for the Huffington Post mirror my critiques on EDC 2012 in Vegas. A lack of effort from many in the EDM scene has been noticed, and I\u2019m happy it\u2019s being addressed. If you\u2019re going to play all over the world, often on huge festival stages for massive audiences, you better bring it.\nHis words hold a lot of weight; winner of 5 world DJ championships, former DJ for Kanye West, co-founder of Fool\u2019s Gold Records, half of Duck Sauce and an all-around solid artist for the past 15 years. So all you DJ\u2019s and producers out there..take notes. This is a challenging and thoughtful analysis of the current state of electronic dance music. Take it in, and contribute something memorable.

I\u2019m glad it was one that represents experimentation; his third solo studio album embraces synthesizers and other trippy techniques. Originally released in 1980, followed by a re-issue in 2011. Not much needs to be said about Paul, ya\u2019ll know he\u2019s the shit.\nI\u2019m taken by \u201cWaterfalls\u201d, it\u2019s a beauty.\nAll I can say about this release is..DAMN.

        "raw_content": "Once upon a time there lived a poor man who had more children than bread to feed them with. However, they were strong and willing, and soon learned to make themselves of use to their father and mother, and when they were old enough they went out to service, and everyone was very glad to get them for servants, for they worked hard and were always cheerful. Out of all the ten or eleven, there was only one who gave his parents any trouble, and this was a big lazy boy whose name was Tiidu. Neither scoldings nor beatings nor kind words had any effect on him, and the older he grew the idler he got. He spent his winters crouching close to a warm stove, and his summers asleep under a shady tree; and if he was not doing either of these things he was playing tunes on his flute.\nOne day he was sitting under a bush playing so sweetly that you might easily have mistaken the notes for those of a bird, when an old man passed by. \u2018What trade do you wish to follow, my son?\u2019 he asked in a friendly voice, stopping as he did so in front of the youth.\n\u2018If I were only a rich man, and had no need to work,\u2019 replied the boy, \u2018I should not follow any. I could not bear to be anybody\u2019s servant, as all my brothers and sisters are.\u2019\nThe old man laughed as he heard this answer, and said: \u2018But I do not exactly see where your riches are to come from if you do not work for them. Sleeping cats catch no mice. He who wishes to become rich must use either his hands or his head, and be ready to toil night and day, or else\u2014\u2019\nBut here the youth broke in rudely:\n\u2018Be silent, old man! I have been told all that a hundred times over; and it runs off me like water off a duck\u2019s back. No one will ever make a worker out of me.\u2019\n\u2018You have one gift,\u2019 replied the old man, taking no notice of this speech, \u2018and if you would only go about and play the pipes, you would easily earn, not only your daily bread, but a little money into the bargain. Listen to me; get yourself a set of pipes, and learn to play on them as well as you do on your flute, and wherever there are men to hear you, I promise you will never lack money.\u2019\n\u2018But where am I to get the pipes from?\u2019 asked the youth.\n\u2018Blow on your flute for a few days,\u2019 replied the old man, \u2018and you will soon be able to buy your pipes. By-and-by I will come back again and see if you have taken my advice, and whether you are likely to grow rich.\u2019 And so saying he went his way.\nTiidu stayed where he was a little longer, thinking of all the old man had told him, and the more he thought the surer he felt that the old man was right. He determined to try whether his plan would really bring luck; but as he did not like being laughed at he resolved not to tell anyone a word about it. So next morning he left home\u2014and never came back! His parents did not take his loss much to heart, but were rather glad that their useless son had for once shown a little spirit, and they hoped that time and hardship might cure Tiidu of his idle folly.\nFor some weeks Tiidu wandered from one village to another, and proved for himself the truth of the old man\u2019s promise. The people he met were all friendly and kind, and enjoyed his flute-playing, giving him his food in return, and even a few pence. These pence the youth hoarded carefully till he had collected enough to buy a beautiful pair of pipes. Then he felt himself indeed on the high road to riches. Nowhere could pipes be found as fine as his, or played in so masterly a manner. Tiidu\u2019s pipes set everybody\u2019s legs dancing. Wherever there was a marriage, a christening, or a feast of any kind, Tiidu must be there, or the evening would be a failure. In a few years he had become so noted a piper that people would travel far and wide to hear him.\nOne day he was invited to a christening where many rich men from the neighbouring town were present, and all agreed that never in all their lives had they heard such playing as his. They crowded round him, and praised him, and pressed him to come to their homes, declaring that it was a shame not to give their friends the chance of hearing such music. Of course all this delighted Tiidu, who accepted gladly, and left their houses laden with money and presents of every kind; one great lord clothed him in a magnificent dress, a second hung a chain of pearls round his neck, while a third handed him a set of new pipes encrusted in silver. As for the ladies, the girls twisted silken scarves round his plumed hat, and their mothers knitted him gloves of all colours, to keep out the cold. Any other man in Tiidu\u2019s place would have been contented and happy in this life; but his craving for riches gave him no rest, and only goaded him day by day to fresh exertions, so that even his own mother would not have known him for the lazy boy who was always lying asleep in one place or the other.\nNow Tiidu saw quite clearly that he could only hope to become rich by means of his pipes, and set about thinking if there was nothing he could do to make the money flow in faster. At length he remembered having heard some stories of a kingdom in the Kungla country, where musicians of all sorts were welcomed and highly paid; but where it was, or how it was reached, he could not recollect, however hard he thought. In despair, he wandered along the coast, hoping to see some ship or sailing boat that would take him where he wished to go, and at length he reached the town of Narva, where several merchantmen were lying at anchor. To his great joy, he found that one of them was sailing for Kungla in a few days, and he hastily went on board, and asked for the captain. But the cost of the passage was more than the prudent Tiidu cared to pay, and though he played his best on his pipes, the captain refused to lower his price, and Tiidu was just thinking of returning on shore when his usual luck flew to his aid. A young sailor, who had heard him play, came secretly to him, and offered to hide him on board, in the absence of the captain. So the next night, as soon as it was dark, Tiidu stepped softly on deck, and was hidden by his friend down in the hold in a corner between two casks. Unseen by the rest of the crew the sailor managed to bring him food and drink, and when they were well out of sight of land he proceeded to carry out a plan he had invented to deliver Tiidu from his cramped quarters. At midnight, while he was keeping watch and everyone else was sleeping, the man bade his friend Tiidu follow him on deck, where he tied a rope round Tiidu\u2019s body, fastening the other end carefully to one of the ship\u2019s ropes. \u2018Now,\u2019 he said, \u2018I will throw you into the sea, and you must shout for help; and when you see the sailors coming untie the rope from your waist, and tell them that you have swum after the ship all the way from shore.\u2019\nAt first Tiidu did not much like this scheme, for the sea ran high, but he was a good swimmer, and the sailor assured him that there was no danger. As soon as he was in the water, his friend hastened to rouse his mates, declaring that he was sure that there was a man in the sea, following the ship. They all came on deck, and what was their surprise when they recognised the person who had bargained about a passage the previous day with the captain.\n\u2018Are you a ghost, or a dying man?\u2019 they asked him trembling, as they stooped over the side of the ship.\n\u2018I shall soon indeed be a dead man if you do not help me,\u2019 answered Tiidu, \u2018for my strength is going fast.\u2019\nThen the captain seized a rope and flung it out to him, and Tiidu held it between his teeth, while, unseen by the sailors; he loosed the one tied round his waist.\n\u2018Where have you come from?\u2019 said the captain, when Tiidu was brought up on board the ship.\n\u2018I have followed you from the harbour,\u2019 answered he, \u2018and have been often in sore dread lest my strength should fail me. I hoped that by swimming after the ship I might at last reach Kungla, as I had no money to pay my passage.\u2019 The captain\u2019s heart melted at these words, and he said kindly: \u2018You may be thankful that you were not drowned. I will land you at Kungla free of payment, as you are so anxious to get there. So he gave him dry clothes to wear, and a berth to sleep in, and Tiidu and his friend secretly made merry over their cunning trick.\nFor the rest of the voyage the ship\u2019s crew treated Tiidu as something higher than themselves, seeing that in all their lives they had never met with any man that could swim for as many hours as he had done. This pleased Tiidu very much, though he knew that he had really done nothing to deserve it, and in return he delighted them by tunes on his pipes. When, after some days, they cast anchor at Kungla, the story of his wonderful swim brought him many friends, for everybody wished to hear him tell the tale himself. This might have been all very well, had not Tiidu lived in dread that some day he would be asked to give proof of his marvellous swimming powers, and then everything would be found out. Meanwhile he was dazzled with the splendour around him, and more than ever he longed for part of the riches, about which the owners seemed to care so little.\nHe wandered through the streets for many days, seeking some one who wanted a servant; but though more than one person would have been glad to engage him, they seemed to Tiidu not the sort of people to help him to get rich quickly. At last, when he had almost made up his mind that he must accept the next place offered him, he happened to knock at the door of a rich merchant who was in need of a scullion, and gladly agreed to do the cook\u2019s bidding, and it was in this merchant\u2019s house that he first learned how great were the riches of the land of Kungla. All the vessels which in other countries are made of iron, copper, brass, or tin, in Kungla were made of silver, or even of gold. The food was cooked in silver saucepans, the bread baked in a silver oven, while the dishes and their covers were all of gold. Even the very pigs\u2019 troughs were of silver too. But the sight of these things only made Tiidu more covetous than before. \u2018What is the use of all this wealth that I have constantly before my eyes,\u2019 thought he, \u2018if none of it is mine? I shall never grow rich by what I earn as a scullion, even though I am paid as much in a month as I should get elsewhere in a year.\u2019\nBy this time he had been in his place for two years, and had put by quite a large sum of money. His passion of saving had increased to such a pitch that it was only by his master\u2019s orders that he ever bought any new clothes, \u2018For,\u2019 said the merchant, \u2018I will not have dirty people in my house.\u2019 So with a heavy heart Tiidu spent some of his next month\u2019s wages on a cheap coat.\nOne day the merchant held a great feast in honour of the christening of his youngest child, and he gave each of his servants a handsome garment for the occasion. The following Sunday, Tiidu, who liked fine clothes when he did not have to pay for them, put on his new coat, and went for a walk to some beautiful pleasure gardens, which were always full of people on a sunny day. He sat down under a shady tree, and watched the passers-by, but after a little he began to feel rather lonely, for he knew nobody and nobody knew him. Suddenly his eyes fell on the figure of an old man, which seemed familiar to him, though he could not tell when or where he had seen it. He watched the figure for some time, till at length the old man left the crowded paths, and threw himself on the soft grass under a lime tree, which stood at some distance from where Tiidu was sitting. Then the young man walked slowly past, in order that he might look at him more closely, and as he did so the old man smiled, and held out his hand.\n\u2018What have you done with your pipes?\u2019 asked he; and then in a moment Tiidu knew him. Taking his arm he drew him into a quiet place and told him all that had happened since they had last met. The old man shook his head as he listened, and when Tiidu had finished his tale, he said: \u2018A fool you are, and a fool you will always be! Was there ever such a piece of folly as to exchange your pipes for a scullion\u2019s ladle? You could have made as much by the pipes in a day as your wages would have come to in half a year. Go home and fetch your pipes, and play them here, and you will soon see if I have spoken the truth.\u2019\nTiidu did not like this advice\u2014he was afraid that the people would laugh at him; and, besides, it was long since he had touched his pipes\u2014but the old man persisted, and at last Tiidu did as he was told.\n\u2018Sit down on the bank by me,\u2019 said the old man, when he came back, \u2018and begin to play, and in a little while the people will flock round you.\u2019 Tiidu obeyed, at first without much heart; but somehow the tone of the pipes was sweeter than he had remembered, and as he played, the crowd ceased to walk and chatter, and stood still and silent round him. When he had played for some time he took off his hat and passed it round, and dollars, and small silver coins, and even gold pieces, came tumbling in. Tiidu played a couple more tunes by way of thanks, then turned to go home, hearing on all sides murmurs of \u2018What a wonderful piper! Come back, we pray you, next Sunday to give us another treat.\u2019\n\u2018What did I tell you?\u2019 said the old man, as they passed through the garden gate. \u2018Was it not pleasanter to play for a couple of hours on the pipes than to be stirring sauces all day long? For the second time I have shown you the path to follow; try to learn wisdom, and take the bull by the horns, lest your luck should slip from you! I can be your guide no longer, therefore listen to what I say, and obey me. Go every Sunday afternoon to those gardens; and sit under the lime tree and play to the people, and bring a felt hat with a deep crown, and lay it on the ground at your feet, so that everyone can throw some money into it. If you are invited to play at a feast, accept willingly, but beware of asking a fixed price; say you will take whatever they may feel inclined to give. You will get far more money in the end. Perhaps, some day, our paths may cross, and then I shall see how far you have followed my advice. Till then, farewell\u2019; and the old man went his way.\nAs before, his words came true, though Tiidu could not at once do his bidding, as he had first to fulfil his appointed time of service. Meanwhile he ordered some fine clothes, in which he played every Sunday in the gardens, and when he counted his gains in the evening they were always more than on the Sunday before. At length he was free to do as he liked, and he had more invitations to play than he could manage to accept, and at night, when the citizens used to go and drink in the inn, the landlord always begged Tiidu to come and play to them. Thus he grew so rich that very soon he had his silver pipes covered with gold, so that they glistened in the light of the sun or the fire. In all Kungla there was no prouder man than Tiidu.\nIn a few years he had saved such a large sum of money that he was considered a rich man even in Kungla, where everybody was rich. And then he had leisure to remember that he had once had a home, and a family, and that he should like to see them both again, and show them how well he could play. This time he would not need to hide in the ship\u2019s hold, but could hire the best cabin if he wished to, or even have a vessel all to himself. So he packed all his treasures in large chests, and sent them on board the first ship that was sailing to his native land, and followed them with a light heart. The wind at starting was fair, but it soon freshened, and in the night rose to a gale. For two days they ran before it, and hoped that by keeping well out to sea they might be able to weather the storm, when, suddenly, the ship struck on a rock, and began to fill. Orders were given to lower the boats, and Tiidu with three sailors got into one of them, but before they could push away from the ship a huge wave overturned it, and all four were flung into the water. Luckily for Tiidu an oar was floating near him, and with its help he was able to keep on the surface of the water; and when the sun rose, and the mist cleared away, he saw that he was not far from shore. By hard swimming, for the sea still ran high, he managed to reach it, and pulled himself out of the water, more dead than alive. Then he flung himself down on the ground and fell fast asleep.\nWhen he awoke he got up to explore the island, and see if there were any men upon it; but though he found streams and fruit trees in abundance, there was no trace either of man or beast. Then, tired with his wanderings he sat down and began to think.\nFor perhaps the first time in his life his thoughts did not instantly turn to money. It was not on his lost treasures that his mind dwelt, but on his conduct to his parents: his laziness and disobedience as a boy; his forgetfulness of them as a man. \u2018If wild animals were to come and tear me to pieces,\u2019 he said to himself bitterly, \u2018it would be only what I deserve! My gains are all at the bottom of the sea\u2014well! lightly won, lightly lost\u2014but it is odd that I feel I should not care for that if only my pipes were left me.\u2019 Then he rose and walked a little further, till he saw a tree with great red apples shining amidst the leaves, and he pulled some down, and ate them greedily. After that he stretched himself out on the soft moss and went to sleep.\nIn the morning he ran to the nearest stream to wash himself, but to his horror, when he caught sight of his face, he saw his nose had grown the colour of an apple, and reached nearly to his waist. He started back thinking he was dreaming, and put up his hand; but, alas! the dreadful thing was true. \u2018Oh, why does not some wild beast devour me?\u2019 he cried to himself; \u2018never, never, can I go again amongst my fellow-men! If only the sea had swallowed me up, how much happier it had been for me!\u2019 And he hid his head in his hands and wept. His grief was so violent, that it exhausted him, and growing hungry he looked about for something to eat. Just above him was a bough of ripe, brown nuts, end he picked them and ate a handful. To his surprise, as he was eating them, he felt his nose grow shorter and shorter, and after a while he ventured to feel it with his hand, and even to look in the stream again! Yes, there was no mistake, it was as short as before, or perhaps a little shorter. In his joy at this discovery Tiidu did a very bold thing. He took one of the apples out of his pocket, and cautiously bit a piece out of it. In an instant his nose was as long as his chin, and in a deadly fear lest it should stretch further, he hastily swallowed a nut, and awaited the result with terror. Supposing that the shrinking of his nose had only been an accident before! Supposing that that nut and no other was able to cause its shrinking! In that case he had, by his own folly, in not letting well alone, ruined his life completely. But, no! he had guessed rightly, for in no more time than his nose had taken to grow long did it take to return to its proper size. \u2018This may make my fortune,\u2019 he said joyfully to himself; and he gathered some of the apples, which he put into one pocket, and a good supply of nuts which he put into the other. Next day he wove a basket out of some rushes, so that if he ever left the island he might be able to carry his treasures about.\nThat night he dreamed that his friend the old man appeared to him and said: \u2018Because you did not mourn for your lost treasure, but only for your pipes, I will give you a new set to replace them.\u2019 And, behold! in the morning when he got up a set of pipes was lying in the basket. With what joy did he seize them and begin one of his favourite tunes; and as he played hope sprang up in his heart, and he looked out to sea, to try to detect the sign of a sail. Yes! there it was, making straight for the island; and Tiidu, holding his pipes in his hand, dashed down to the shore.\nThe sailors knew the island to be uninhabited, and were much surprised to see a man standing on the beach, waving his arms in welcome to them. A boat was put off, and two sailors rowed to the shore to discover how he came there, and if he wished to be taken away. Tiidu told them the story of his shipwreck, and the captain promised that he should come on board, and sail with them back to Kungla; and thankful indeed was Tiidu to accept the offer, and to show his gratitude by playing on his pipes whenever he was asked to do so.\nThey had a quick voyage, and it was not long before Tiidu found himself again in the streets of the capital of Kungla, playing as he went along. The people had heard no music like his since he went away, and they crowded round him, and in their joy gave him whatever money they had in their pockets. His first care was to buy himself some new clothes, which he sadly needed, taking care, however, that they should be made after a foreign fashion. When they were ready, he set out one day with a small basket of his famous apples, and went up to the palace. He did not have to wait long before one of the royal servants passed by and bought all the apples, begging as he did so that the merchant should return and bring some more. This Tiidu promised, and hastened away as if he had a mad bull behind him, so afraid was he that the man should begin to eat an apple at once.\nIt is needless to say that for some days he took no more apples back to the palace, but kept well away on the other side of the town, wearing other clothes, and disguised by a long black beard, so that even his own mother would not have known him.\nThe morning after his visit to the castle the whole city was in an uproar about the dreadful misfortune that had happened to the Royal Family, for not only the king but his wife and children, had eaten of the stranger\u2019s apples, and all, so said the rumour, were very ill. The most famous doctors and the greatest magicians were hastily summoned to the palace, but they shook their heads and came away again; never had they met with such a disease in all the course of their experience. By-and-bye a story went round the town, started no one knew how, that the malady was in some way connected with the nose; and men rubbed their own anxiously, to be sure that nothing catching was in the air.\nMatters had been in this state for more than a week when it reached the ears of the king that a man was living in an inn on the other side of the town who declared himself able to cure all manner of diseases. Instantly the royal carriage was commanded to drive with all speed and bring back this magician, offering him riches untold if he could restore their noses to their former length. Tiidu had expected this summons, and had sat up all night changing his appearance, and so well had he succeeded that not a trace remained either of the piper or of the apple seller. He stepped into the carriage, and was driven post haste to the king, who was feverishly counting every moment, for both his nose and the queen\u2019s were by this time more than a yard long, and they did not know where they would stop.\nNow Tiidu thought it would not look well to cure the royal family by giving them the raw nuts; he felt that it might arouse suspicion. So he had carefully pounded them into a powder, and divided the powder up into small doses, which were to be put on the tongue and swallowed at once. He gave one of these to the king and another to the queen, and told them that before taking them they were to get into bed in a dark room and not to move for some hours, after which they might be sure that they would come out cured.\nThe king\u2019s joy was so great at this news that he would gladly have given Tiidu half of his kingdom; but the piper was no longer so greedy of money as he once was, before he had been shipwrecked on the island. If he could get enough to buy a small estate and live comfortably on it for the rest of his life, that was all he now cared for. However, the king ordered his treasure to pay him three times as much as he asked, and with this Tiidu went down to the harbour and engaged a small ship to carry him back to his native country. The wind was fair, and in ten days the coast, which he had almost forgotten, stood clear before him. In a few hours he was standing in his old home, where his father, three sisters, and two brothers gave him a hearty welcome. His mother and his other brothers had died some years before.\nWhen the meeting was over, he began to make inquiries about a small estate that was for sale near the town, and after he had bought it the next thing was to find a wife to share it with him. This did not take long either; and people who were at the wedding feast declared that the best part of the whole day was the hour when Tiidu played to them on the pipes before they bade each other farewell and returned to their homes.\nPrevious Little Wildrose\nNext Paperarelloo",

I may take some leftovers for my lunch tomorrow.\nA week or two ago that Bull Terrier saw Sammy again. He was being walked down the street towards his house and we were walking (across from his house) down the street in the opposite direction. He saw Sammy and tried to make a run for it. And then he wouldn't go up his front steps to his porch. His owner was not happy.\nTonight, Sammy and I stepped onto our porch and the Bull Terrier was walking down our side street. I saw him and his owner coming so I didn't go down the steps. I just waited for them to pass. The Bull Terrier saw Sammy and pulled against his leash trying to get to us. The owner was like, \"Don't even think I'm going to let you go over there\" but the dog still pulled. If they met up again I honestly don't know what would happen.\nWe did have a little miracle with Sammy. We finally found a phrase that makes him stop barking.\nThis morning I discovered our dehumidifier dead in the basement. Tonight I confirmed the problem is not the outlet. We still have the box and it says there's a 5 year warranty on it. Now I just need to find the ziploc bag with the Lowe's receipt...\nEin's phrase is, \"Einstein, ENOUGH!\" Mostly I trained him not to bark with the shake can, though. He will bark on the commands, \"Speak,\" \"What'd you say?\" and \"Who let the dogs out?\" I let him bark outside, but he doesn't bark much at all. What works for Sammy?\nZilla's phrase was \"Quiet\". He might grumble afterwards like he was talking under his breath but that's what he did. :)\nSammy will bark to \"Speak\" and he's now quiet when we tell him to \"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZip it!\" Most of the time anyway. Sometime's he's so worked up I don't think he hears us.",

        "raw_content": "February 5 \u2013 Day 113 \u2013 Let\u2019s score some goals\nIt took a goal with only 2:40 remaining in regulation to give the Washington Capitals the 3-2 victory over the New York Islanders in yesterday\u2019s Game of the Day.\nOnly 1:55 into the game, Mikhail Grabovski scored the first goal with a wrister off assists from Josh Bailey (his 15th helper of the season) and Travis Hamonic, giving the Isles a one-goal lead. The Capitals scored only 5:33 later when First Star of the Game T.J. Oshie scored a slap shot off an Nicklas Backstrom\u2019s first assist of the night. The one-all score held into the intermission.\nThe second period had only one goal, this one belonging to Washington. It was Andre Burakovsky scoring with a wrister off assists from Jason Chimera (his 15th helper of the season) and Dmitry Orlov.\nNew York scored quickly in the third, 5:38 into the period to be exact. It was a Bailey wrister after assists from Marek Zidlicky and Brock Nelson, to tie the game at two-all. Washington scored the game winner late in the third when Second Star Alex Ovechkin fired a wrister off assists from Nicklas Backstrom (his 31st of the season) and Oshie.\nBraden Holtby earns the win after saving 24 of 26 (92.3%), while Jaroslav Halak saves only 20 of 23 (87%) and takes the loss.\nThere\u2019s only four games on the docket this evening, with the Pittsburgh at Tampa Bay (NHLN) game starting the festivities at 7:30 p.m. eastern, followed half an hour later by Carolina at Winnipeg. 9 p.m. eastern brings with it the beginning of the Columbus at Calgary game, followed an hour later by this evening\u2019s nightcap, Arizona at Anaheim.\nArizona at Anaheim is the only divisional game this season, and none are between teams currently qualifying for the playoffs.\nI must admit, I can\u2019t decide between the Pittsburgh\u2013Tampa Bay and Arizona\u2013Anaheim games, as both are very important in the surge for the playoffs. That being said, I\u2019m going to go with the Pens\u2013Bolts game because it\u2019s on national TV.\nTonight\u2019s game will be Pittsburgh\u2018s eighth in the Game of the Day series, where they own a 3-3-1 record. Their most recent showing in the series was a 5-2 loss in St. Louis on January 18. Tampa Bay has been featured much more recently, as they beat the Red Wings 3-1 on Wednesday. That game was their eighth in the Game of the Day series, where they own a 4-3-1 record.\nThe 25-17-7 Pittsburgh Penguins currently sit in fifth in the Metropolitan Division and ninth in the Eastern Conference, only a point out of the second wildcard position. They\u2019ve found their success by playing a top-10 defense, but it\u2019s been paired with the 10th-worst offense in the league.\nEven with Ian Cole\u2019s team-leading 80 blocks, 20-11-5 Marc-Andre Fleury and co. have faced 1502 shots, of which they\u2019ve saved 92.2% for 122 goals against, 10th-fewest in the league. One part of their overall defensive success has been having the seventh-best penalty kill unit in the league, killing 83.85% for only 26 extra-man goals against.\nThe offense has had a little bit of a tougher time, even though they\u2019ve fired 1596 shots so far this season (led by Patric Hornqvist\u2019s 158 shots), of which only 7.9% have found the back of the net for 126 goals (led by Evgeni Malkin\u2019s 23 tallies), 10th-fewest in the league. Somehow, even though the offense as a whole hasn\u2019t been as successful, the power play actually ranks eighth-best in the league, scoring on 20.48% of attempts for 34 extra-man goals (led by Malkin\u2019s 10 power play tallies).\nGoing back to before the All-Star Break, the Penguins are riding a four-game winning streak, with their most recent being 6-5 victory over the Senators on Tuesday. A win today not only has the chance to move the Penguins into the playoffs, but all the way into the third division qualifier.\nThe 28-18-4 Tampa Bay Lightning currently sit in second place in the Atlantic Division and fourth in the Eastern Conference. Their defense is top-five in the league, and their offense is 14th-best. A more in-depth analysis of their game can be found in Wednesday\u2019s post.\nGoing back to before the All-Star Break, the Bolts are riding a two-game win streak, with their most recent victory being the 3-1 victory over the Red Wings on Wednesday. While a win tonight doesn\u2019t advance them in the standings, it would break the tie with the Boston Bruins.\nThese teams have already played once this season, and a whopping nine goals were exchanged, with the Bolts winning in overtime. The Penguins just played a game like that on Tuesday, so it will be interesting to see if they have any goals left over for tonight\u2019s game.\nSome players to watch in tonight\u2019s game include Pittsburgh\u2018s Fleury (four shutouts [tied for third-most in the league] and 20 wins [tied for eighth-most in the league]) and Tampa Bay\u2018s Ben Bishop (1.99 GAA [second-best in the league], 20 wins [tied for eighth-most in the league] and .927 save percentage [tied for eighth-best in the league]).\nTampa Bay has been playing well of late, and have home ice.

        "raw_content": "Can You Really Trust Health Journalism? Think Like A Scientist.\nPosted on May 17, 2018 by rodkelly50\t2 comments\nNewspapers often give completely contradictory health advice. It\u2019s difficult enough to keep track of what is supposed to be healthy, without papers changing their minds the whole time. Unless you have training in Science or access to the original source material, you often must take a newspapers interpretation at face value. But this can often be wrong, and in some cases, very dangerous. How dangerous? Well, read on to find out how you can spot the sensational and separate the wheat from the chaff.\nHealth And Contradiction\nOne example of a newspaper that is often sensational in its reporting is The Daily Mail. And, like any other news source, it has to keep up with new information, which may change within hours. In just a few examples, we see The Daily Mail appear to contradict itself on a variety of subjects. \u201cAspirin causes cancer\u201d but also \u201cAspirin prevents cancer\u201d. They tell us \u201cBeer causes cancer\u201d but then \u201cBeer prevents cancer\u201d. Also \u201cCoffee causes cancer\u201d except in those times when \u201cCoffee prevents cancer\u201d. \u201cEggs cause cancer\u201d but, you guessed it, \u201cEggs prevent cancer\u201d. \u201cSoya causes cancer\u201d but also \u201cSoya prevents cancer\u201d. And if lifestyle advice rather than dietary advice is your thing, don\u2019t worry, they\u2019ve got you covered. \u201cStress causes cancer\u201d but, in an unexpected turn of events, also \u201cStress prevents cancer\u201d.\nIf you were to go by this reporting, which in itself seems well sourced, would you be confident to have eggs on toast and a soy latte? Why such contradictory advice? What has gone wrong here? Is it the newspaper\u2019s fault? Or is it more complicated than that?\nContradiction Is Natural in Science\nKnowledge about a subject changes over time. We all remember adverts where doctors recommended cigarettes, but you\u2019d struggle to find many nowadays claiming cigarettes aren\u2019t harmful. And those that do require some education. But that\u2019s only part of the story. To understand more about it, let\u2019s look at how medical research gets published, and how newspapers access this research.\nIf you\u2019re a researcher wanting to get your work published, you submit it to a professional journal. There\u2019s a kind of pecking order of these, with the top ones being well known (Nature, The British Medical Journal, The Lancet etc). At the top of the journal food-chain, journal editors are able to employ lots of independent experts who can \u201cpeer-review\u201d articles before they are published, checking that everything looks accurate. It\u2019s the journal\u2019s reputation on the line too. These journals make their money by being a trusted resource that people are keen to subscribe to and keep up to date with cutting-edge research. Because you often have to pay to access these articles, it\u2019s less likely that the general public or the press have access to them.\nHere lies a conundrum. The very nature of profit means that the public may have to rely on second-hand accounts.\nA bit down the chain are the less big-name journals that provide articles free to access and make their money through advertising. These journals still peer-review articles and often play an important role in publishing articles that bigger journals might not take on, but are still important: for example articles about treatments that have been tried but don\u2019t work.\nFurther down the food-chain are journals that rely on charging researchers to publish in them, just for the kudos of having their research published. The majority of these journals are honest, but a few are just money-making schemes, that will accept any article as their business depends on it. They will often actively go looking for researchers to submit articles to them. While they claim to be \u201cpeer-reviewed\u201d often these articles aren\u2019t.\nSo how do you distinguish between verified and peer-reviewed science, and what is just money-making? And how can you tell what you should believe in when there is so much out there?\nOne famous example of science shenanigans is David Mazieres and Eddie Kohler of New York University and the University of California, Los Angeles. They were contacted by a journal that sent hundreds of emails out to researchers, suggesting that they submit work to their journal. They wrote a paper called \u201cGet Me Off Your F*****g Mailing List\u201d as a joke. Surprisingly, their paper was \u201cpeer-reviewed\u201d and accepted for publication by the impressively named \u201cInternational Journal of Advanced Computer Technology\u201d\nNow, that\u2019s an extreme case, but it shows that we need to be cautious about some of these medical articles that are the easiest for newspapers to access. Just because something has been published in a \u201cjournal\u201d doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s good research, and expert peer-review is essential. Unfortunately, it\u2019s often the very articles that are less rigorously checked that are easiest to access by newspapers.\nWhy is this a problem? Well, proper research is often really difficult to do, but misinterpreting results is easy. As any statistician worth their salt will tell you, 86.7% of statistics are made up. So if an article hasn\u2019t been \u201cpeer-reviewed\u201d, you\u2019re going to have to review it yourself. Luckily, there are certain clues in good research that help you think like a Scientist.\nIn Science, nothing is confirmed. Only refuted, and conclusions drawn in very narrow margins. Researchers have to be careful that their findings are \u201cstatistically significant\u201d, and they use various ways to do this. They often quote a factor in their articles called a \u201cp value\u201d which is a measure of how likely it is the results they found are due to chance. For example, a p-value of 0.05 suggests that there\u2019s only a 5 in 100 chance that the results of the research are just due to chance. That sounds impressive, right? Well, yeah, but if your research is looking at 100 things that might cause cancer, 5 things might show up as positive just by chance.\nThis is incredibly common, and a natural limitation of science. It is akin to \u2018we are confident of this relationship in most cases, but cannot account for all.\u2019\nAlso, you need to be sure that the things you are looking at really are the cause, and aren\u2019t just \u201cconfounding factors\u201d meaning that the thing you are looking at isn\u2019t really the cause, but is associated with something that is. Let\u2019s say you\u2019re looking at what causes obesity, and you find that Diet drinks are linked to it. It might be that they really are \u2013 but it\u2019s unlikely considering the number of calories in them is often zero. So a simple confounding factor is that the already overweight may drink more diet drinks to try and cut down. Correlation does not imply causation.\nErm, So Now What?\nSo I should just ignore everything I read right? Well, no. Research is essential to better understand the world we live in, but the bottom line is we shouldn\u2019t just trust something because it\u2019s been published in a journal with an impressive name, and then reported on in a newspaper. The Daily Mail has an excellent health writer, but without the opportunity to review the work in the context of everything else you cannot make a truly informed choice.\nFurthermore, often the relationship between a variable (coffee) and an outcome (stress) is not something simple, linear and dose-related. You can have too much or too little. So if you claim \u2018Coffee causes stress\u2019 and \u2018Coffee helps you destress\u2019 you may be right, but about different doses, lifestyles and context.\nCheck the sources, ask yourself a few simple questions about it, and if you\u2019re interested look into it more.

        "raw_content": "Rocking and Rolling on the South Pacific\nSeptember 26th, 2017 by Michael G. Novak\nWe have been traversing the South Pacific for over thirty days now. Early on, we had several days of high winds and rough seas with waves that may have been as big as 8 meters (over 25 feet). The bow of this gigantic vessel would sometimes submerge under a giant wave that sent thumps and reverberations throughout the hull of the ship. During those days, giant albatross followed the ship and showed off their flying skills. They would glide with great speed over the peaks of these waves and down into the troughs. At the bottom, they would make a sharp turn and catch the air current generated by the water motion and appeared as if they were surfing along the face of the wave.\nWe\u2019ve crossed several time zones and, for the first time in my life, I have experienced \u2018boat lag\u2019 and had to adjust my sleeping to compensate for the changes. It is difficult to distinguish one day from the other. Each morning I rise, have my coffee, and read the news via AP wire. After grabbing some breakfast, I prepare all of the filtration equipment in the lab. Next, I clean, adjust, and focus the FlowCam, an instrument used to image microscopic organisms in the water. Usually by the time that is completed we are on station (our daily stop to lower the instruments down deep into the ocean). We get suited up into our protective gear then go out on the back deck to deploy our instruments and pump sea water into large Nalgene containers with a spigot to dispense the water. We bring the water samples into the lab and spend hours filtering the water through different types of filters.\nA transparent marine worm, called Chaetognatha, seen through our flow through imaging system (FlowCam). Credit: Mike Novak/NASA\nBack in the labs at NASA Goddard, we will analyze the particles that got trapped on the filters as well as what went through, or the dissolved portion. It\u2019s all valuable information about the microscopic life in this part of the ocean and helps us understand the role each plays in Earth\u2019s carbon cycle.\nThe days here are long and repetitive. Sometimes I\u2019m on my feet almost nonstop for 10-12 hours. When seas are rough, the boat is constantly moving and I have to compensate all the time for that movement while I stand, move, or walk. There are crew members, engineers, marine technicians, and scientists from many disciplines and institutions on this expedition. Everyone works hard and does their best to keep morale and spirits up. People organize cribbage and ping pong tournaments. Sometimes it is hard to find the time where shifts and availability match up to compete, but it is a good way to have some fun if you can find some down time.\nWhen the seas are calm and daily duties are done, people play ping-pong inside the ship. Credit: Mike Novak/NASA\nOn clear nights, I go out on deck where the stars can be so magnificent and I gaze deep into the universe. The Milky Way stretches across the sky from horizon to horizon. Since we are in the southern hemisphere, we see many constellations and celestial objects that people in the northern hemisphere cannot see. The Southern Cross is a very prominent constellation while the two Magellanic Clouds are neighboring galaxies that are an impressive sight, even with the naked eye. In the south, the image of the moon is inverted compared to viewing it from the north. The new crescent moon waxes, or increases size, from the left to right instead of the reverse direction that I\u2019m used to seeing back home.\nAn unobstructed view of sunsets and sunrises over the ocean are an inspiration to see. Many of us try to meet out on the helipad after dinner to watch the sun dip below the horizon. When the clouds are positioned just right, it appears as if they become electrified and the sky lights up with brilliant reds and pinks. The reflection of the majestic show on the surrounding sea gives the whole effect a greater sense of awe.\nTwo sunset photos with slightly different states of calm and cloudiness. Credit: Mike Novak/NASA\nThe ship ran out of vegetables and fruit several days ago and having a fresh garden salad is something I dream about. I miss my wife and my family. I miss our garden and our house. I miss feeling the damp earth under my feet and feeling the green grass between my toes. I miss the sounds of birds, insects, and animals scurrying through the forest. I miss going to concerts, museums, and making music with friends.\nThere are many musicians on board, including myself. I try to sneak away for ten minutes here and there to strum my classical guitar and work on new and old songs. We get together and play sometimes as well. It is difficult to find a place that is quiet enough where we don\u2019t disturb other people. However, we were lucky enough to have a jam session out on the bow on one afternoon when the wind and waves were fairly calm. Being surrounded by the sea with the sun on my face is a great inspiration for music!\nThe boat has giant diesel engines and there is no way to escape their thunderous roar. The repetitive nature of this work is challenging. Every day I follow a similar schedule of working, eating, exercising, and sleeping. There are no days off and there is always more work to be done.\nDespite all the hardships of rocking on the seas for 40 days, I feel that our work has great meaning. For several decades, the science data collected on these repeat hydrographic research cruises has been analyzed and published in peer reviewed papers. The breadth of knowledge that comes out of this program and the previous ones that it is built upon contributes to understanding the bigger picture of how the ocean ecosystems are responding to the changing ocean and atmosphere. The work that we do here, and what other have done in the past, will help us to understand and mitigate the problems of future.\nSearching for the Bluest\nSeptember 20th, 2017 by Joaqu\u00edn E. Chaves-Cede\u00f1o, NASA/SSAI\nIt doesn\u2019t take a lot of technology to see that the ocean is blue. And when it comes to the blueness of the ocean, it doesn\u2019t get much more blue than where I am. I\u2019m sitting on the research vessel Nathaniel B. Palmer\u2014the largest icebreaker that supports the United States Antarctic Program\u2014on an oceanographic expedition across the South Pacific Ocean, my current home, office, and laboratory. On this voyage, however, the Palmer has broken no ice.\nOur Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigations Program (GO-SHIP) P06 campaign departed Sydney, Australia, on July 3, successfully ending the first leg of this journey on August 16 in Papeete, French Polynesia (Tahiti). This is where our team from NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (Scott Freeman, Michael Novak, and I) joined dozens of other scientists, graduate students, marine technicians, officers and crew members, for the second and final leg that will end in the port of Valparaiso, Chile, on September 30. The GO-SHIP program is part of the long history of international programs that have criss-crossed the major ocean basins, gathering fundamental hydrographic data that support our ever-growing understanding of the global ocean and its role in regulating the Earth\u2019s climate, and of the physical and chemical processes that determine the distribution and abundance of marine life. This latter topic regarding the ecology of the ocean is what brings our Goddard team along for the ride.\nThe P06 ship track, for the most part, follows along 32.5\u00b0 of latitude south. That route places our course just south of the center of the South Pacific Gyre\u2014the largest of the five major oceanic gyres, which form part the global system of ocean circulation. The Gyre\u2014on average\u2014holds the clearest, bluest ocean waters of any other ocean basin. This blueness is the macroscopic expression of its dearth of ocean life. We have seen nary a fish nor other ships since we departed Tahiti\u2014this is not a major shipping route. Oceanic gyres are often called the deserts of the sea. On land, desert landscapes are limited in their capacity to support life by the availability of water. Here, lack of water is not the issue. Water, however, is at least the co-conspirator in keeping life from flourishing. Physics, as it turns out, is what holds the key to this barren waterscape.\nThis map (above) shows the MODIS chlorophyll climatology with the ship track superimposed.\nDue to the physics of fluids on a rotating sphere, such as our planet, the upper ocean currents slowly rotate counterclockwise around the edges of the center of the Gyre\u2013as a proper Southern Hemisphere gyre should\u2014and a fraction of that flow is deflected inward, towards its center. With water flowing towards the center from all directions, literally piling up and bulging the surface of the ocean\u2013albeit, by just a few centimeters across thousands of miles\u2013gravity pushes down on this pile of water. This relentless downward push puts a lock on life. The pioneers of life in the ocean, the tiny microscopic plants, known as phytoplankton, which drift in the currents, and grow on a steady mineral diet of carbon dioxide, nitrogen and phosphorus, and a dash of iron\u2014and expel oxygen gas as a by-product, to the great benefit of life on Earth\u2014must obtain most of their material sustenance from the ocean below. Layers of denser water trap the nitrogen and phosphorus-rich water at depth, keeping it too far down, where not enough light can reach it to spark the engine of photosynthesis that allows plants to grow.\nWhy are we here and where does NASA come into this story? Since the late 1970s, NASA has pursued\u2014experimentally at first, and now as a sustained program\u2014measuring the color of the oceans from Earth-orbiting satellites as a means to quantify the abundance of microscopic plant life. Microbiology from space, in a way. Formally, though, we call it \u201cocean color remote sensing.\u201d Whizzing by at altitudes of several hundred miles, atop of the atmosphere, bound to polar orbits that allow satellites to scan the entire surface of the globe every couple of days, carrying instrument payloads of meticulously engineered spectro-radiometers\u2014cameras capable of measuring the quantity and quality, or color, of the light that reaches its sensors. This is where our work aboard the R/V Palmer comes into the story. The data the satellites beam down from orbit do not directly measure how much plant life there is in the ocean. Satellite instruments give us digital signals that relate to the amount of light that reached their sensors. It is up to us to translate\u2014to calibrate\u2014those signals into meaningful, and accurate, measurements of plant life\u2014or temperature, salinity, sediment load, sea level height, wind and sea surface roughness, or any other of the many environmental or geophysical variables satellite sensors can help us detect at the surface of the ocean. To properly calibrate a satellite sensor and validate its data products, we must obtain field measurements of the highest possible quality. That is what our team from NASA Goddard is here to do.\nAround midday, typically the time of the ocean color satellite flying over our location, we perform our measurements and collect samples. We measure the optical properties of the water with our instruments to compare what we see from the R/V Palmer to what the satellites measure from their orbit above Earth\u2019s atmosphere. At the same time that we perform our battery of optical measurements, we also collect phytoplankton samples to estimate their abundance, species composition as well as the concentration of chlorophyll-a, the green pigment common to most photosynthesizing organisms like plants, including phytoplankton. By collecting these two types of measurements at once, light and microscopic plant abundance, we are able to build the mathematical relationships that make the validation of the satellite data products possible.\nThe optical instrument being lowered into the South Pacific Ocean.

Credit: Joaquin Chavez/NASA\nThe waters of the South Pacific Gyre are an ideal location for gathering validation quality data, perhaps one the most desirable to do so, because there are few complicating factors and sources of uncertainty that blur the connection we want to establish between the color of the water and phytoplankton life abundance. Our measurements will extend NASA\u2019s ocean chlorophyll-a dataset to some of the lowest values on Earth. The water here is blue; in fact, it\u2019s the bluest ocean water on Earth.\nThis false-color image is a composite, assembled from data acquired by the the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi NPP satellite between September 10-17, 2017.

        "raw_content": "The Black Sea more closely resembled mixed paint on an artist\u2019s palette than the normally black surface of deep water when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA\u2019s Aqua satellite captured this image on June 20, 2006. Swirls of color ranging from deep olive green to bright turquoise were created by a massive phytoplankton bloom that covered the entire surface of the sea. The sea was able to support such a large bloom largely because of its unique structure.\nMany of Europe\u2019s largest rivers, including the Danube, the Dnister, and the Dnipro (also called Dnieper) dump fresh water into the sea. The sea\u2019s only source of salty water, on the other hand, is the narrow Bosporus Strait, which connects it to the Mediterranean Sea through the Sea of Marmara. The salty water is denser than the fresh water, and so it sinks to the bottom, leaving a layer of relatively fresh water on top. The density barrier between salt and fresh water is great enough that the two layers do not mix. As a result, when fresh water enters the sea from rivers, it only mixes with the relatively fresh water in the top 150 meters of the sea. This means that fertilizers and runoff carried in the river water remain concentrated in the top of the sea where they nourish the tiny plants (phytoplankton) that grow on or near the surface.\nIn the spring of 2006, floods on the Danube River swept over broad stretches of farmland. The floods likely washed sediment, fertilizers, and animal waste into the Danube and the Black Sea. The extra iron, phosphates, and nitrates in the flood debris may be supporting the extensive bloom seen here. Such blooms can be both beneficial, because they provide food for fish, and dangerous, because decaying plant matter saps oxygen out of the water. If enough phytoplankton from a large bloom die and decay, the water may become so oxygen poor that fish can no longer survive in it. The result is a dead zone where little can survive.\nDead zones normally happen near the mouths of large rivers where fertilizers and agricultural waste are concentrated in the ocean. The Black Sea is one of the world\u2019s largest dead zones, though its dead zone is related to its stratification as much as to fertilizer run-off. When plants and other organic matter sink to the floor of the sea, they decay in the salty layer of water. Since the denser salt water does not mix with the fresher water at the surface, there is no way to replenish the oxygen used during the decay process. As a result, the lower layer of the Black Sea is totally oxygen-free.\nThe large image provided above has a resolution of 250 meters per pixel. The image is available in additional resolutions from the MODIS Rapid Response Team.\nCreeping Dead Zones, from the NASA Ocean Color Group.\nDrought & Deluge Change Chesapeake Bay Biology, is an Earth Observatory feature that talks about the development of dead zones in the Chesapeake Bay.

Guess how many actually show up at least 2 times a week in a month? \u2026\u2026less that \u2153 of that.\nThe idea that low cost gyms are a great value for the amount of money you spend, is built on a couple levels of misdirection.\nThe assumption that having a membership will, by itself, motivate you to go workout.\nThat because the facility is nice, and has lots of equipment, you are getting a really good deal.\nThat you don\u2019t need help, you can do it on your own. Just having a membership will solve your problems.\nThat no one will judge you, just ignore the mirrors and the fact that everything in the place is designed around looking good, not working hard.\nWhere\u2019s the support? Where\u2019s the coaching? Who is going to keep you accountable day to day? What kind of people are you going to meet? Will they be motivated and encouraging? Will you be cared for by the staff? Is the priority of everyone in the building going to focused on improving every day.\nThe saying, \u201cyou get what you pay for\u201d has no greater evidence that in the business of the traditional gym.\nIf you want serious, focused, and proven methods. If you want personalized and progressive training. If you want results. Save your money and spend it where you will get what you\u2019re looking for.\nI\u2019ve written another article on 5 Steps to help you find the fitness program for you. In it I give you some things to do, that will help you increase your chances of finding a program that will, 1. Be enjoyable, and 2. Give you great results. CLICK HERE to get the guide.",

When 'Mann Ki Baat' commenced, I had firmly decided that it would carry nothing political, or any praise for the government, nor Modi for that matter anywhere. The greatest bulwark in ensuring adherence to my resolve have been you,\" he said.\nAs a run up to each episode, the expectations and aspirations of listeners through their letters, online comments and phone calls are crystal clear, he said.\n\"Modi may come and go, but this country will never let go of its unity and permanence, our culture will always be immortal,\" the prime minister said.\nHe said in an era of social media, he preferred radio as he realised its potential in 1998 as a worker of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).\nIn a remote Himachal Pradesh area, it was a tea stall owner who broke him the news of India carrying out nuclear test.\n\"It was matter of great intrigue to me to see a lone tea seller in a remote, snow-clad hilly place, who possibly kept listening to the radio the entire day\u2026 watching that particular effect of the news on radio led me to realise and internalise that this was a medium that was truly connected with the masses\u2026 and that it was a mighty means of getting across,\" Modi said.\nIn terms of the reach and depth of communication, radio has been incomparable. I have been nursing that feeling ever since, acknowledging its power and strength. Hence when I became the prime minister, it was natural for me to turn towards a strong, effective medium, he pointed out.\nModi's monthly radio broadcast 'Mann ki Baat' completed 50 episodes on Sunday.\nIn its previous episodes, he has covered issues of social, national as well as international implication: education of the girl child, tackling exam stress, climate change and drug menace.\nIn October 2014, in the very first episode of the programme, he had urged citizens to use at least one khadi product, saying it would help poor weavers.\nFull Text of PM's Mann ki Baat\nMy dear countrymen, Namaskar. On the 3rd of October, 2014, the pious occasion of Vijayadashmi, we embarked upon a journey together through the medium of \u2018Mann Ki Baat\u2019. This journey has reached its 50th episode today. Thus, this Golden Jubilee Episode is indeed gilt-edged in every sense of the term. Your letters and phone calls this time pertain mostly to these 50 episodes. Anshu Kumar & Amar Kumar from Delhi on Mygov, Vikas Yadav from Patna; on similar lines Monica Jain from Delhi, Prosenjit Sarkar from Bardhaman, West Bengal and Sangeeta Shastri from Nagpur converge in asking a shared question. They are of the view that broadly speaking, their Prime Minister being associated with the latest in technology, Social Media and Mobile Apps; WHY did he choose radio as a medium to connect with his countrymen? Your curiosity is but natural; in this age when Radio was fading into oblivion, why did Modi opt for the airwaves? Let me quote an incident. The year was 1998. I was then a party worker with the Bharatiya Janata Party organization in Himachal. It was the month of May; and I was travelling to a certain place. Evenings tend to get cold in the hilly terrain of Himachal Pradesh, and I stopped by at a wayside tea stall and placed an order for tea. It was a tiny joint; there was only one person who would make & serve tea. He was not even adequately clad; it was a standalone kiosk on the edge of the road. He first picked up a Laddoo from a glass container, offered the sweetmeat to me & said, \u201cSir, eat this before the tea get ready\u201d. I was taken aback and asked him \u201cWhat is the matter? Is it in celebration of an occasion like a wedding?\u201d He replied, \u201cNo brother, nothing like that! Don\u2019t you know? It\u2019s a momentous, joyous occasion\u201d. On seeing his rather jubilant exuberance, I asked him, \u201cBut what exactly happened?\u201d And he replied, \u201cIndia has exploded the bomb today!\u201d I exclaimed, \u201cIndia has exploded the bomb! I don\u2019t get it!\u201d Said he \u201cSir, just listen to the radio\u201d. Indeed, that exactly was the topic of discussion on the radio. It was then that he elaborated on how on the day of the nuclear test, the then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had announced to the Media and how he broke into a dance on listening to it on the radio. It was matter of great intrigue to me to see a lone tea seller in a remote, snow - clad hilly place,who possibly kept listening to the radio the entire day\u2026 watching that particular effect of the news on radio led me to realize & internalise that this was a medium that was truly connected with the masses\u2026 and that it was a mighty means of getting across.\nPTI Inputs\nIn Video: Mann Ki Baat apolitical, addresses aspirational India: PM Modi on 50th episode\n50th mann ki baat",

        "title": "Crown Prosecution Service - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is the principal public prosecuting agency for conducting criminal prosecutions in England and Wales. It is headed by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).\nWelsh: Gwasanaeth Erlyn y Goron\nNon-ministerial government department\n6,000 approx.\n\u00a3592 million (2012\u201313)[1]\nGeoffrey Cox, Attorney General\nMax Hill, Director of Public Prosecutions\nPaul Staff, Chief Executive\nThe main responsibilities of CPS are to provide legal advice to the police and other investigative agencies during the course of criminal investigations, to decide whether a suspect should face criminal charges following an investigation, and to conduct prosecutions both in the Magistrates' courts and the Crown Court.\nThe Attorney General for England and Wales superintends the CPS's work and answers for it in Parliament, although the Attorney has no influence over the conduct of prosecutions, except when national security is an issue or for a small number of offences that require the Attorney General's permission to prosecute.\nHistorically in England, with no police forces and no prosecution service, the only route to prosecution was through private prosecutions brought by victims at their own expense or lawyers acting on their behalf. From 1829 onwards, as the police forces were formed, they began to take on the burden of bringing prosecutions against suspected criminals.[2]\nSir John Maule was appointed to be the first Director of Public Prosecutions for England and Wales in 1880, operating under the Home Office; his jurisdiction was only for decisions as to whether to prosecute in a very small number of difficult or important cases; once prosecution had been authorised, the matter was turned over to the Treasury Solicitor. Police forces continued to be responsible for the bulk of cases, sometimes referring difficult ones to the Director.[2]\nIn 1962 a Royal Commission recommended that police forces set up independent prosecution departments so as to avoid having the same officers investigate and prosecute cases, although technically the prosecuting police officers did so as private citizens. The Royal Commission's recommendation was not implemented by all police forces however, and so in 1978, another Royal Commission was set up, this time headed by Sir Cyril Philips. It reported in 1981, recommending that a single unified Crown Prosecution Service with responsibility for all public prosecutions in England and Wales be set up. A White Paper was released in 1983, becoming the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985, which established the CPS under the direction of the Director of Public Prosecutions, consisting of a merger of his old department with the existing police prosecution departments. It started operating in 1986.\nIn 1997, Sir Iain Glidewell was commissioned by the government to investigate a potential reform of the CPS. The inquiry reported in June 1998, finding that 12% of charges brought by police were discontinued by the CPS, and that there were failures to communicate between the police and CPS. The report recommended that the CPS focus more on serious crimes being prosecuted at the Crown Court level, closer co-operation between CPS lawyers and the police, and to change its organisational structure, concurring with an existing government plan to restructure the organisation into 42 regional branches, each with its own Chief Crown Prosecutor.[3][4][5][6]\nThe CPS undertook more than 800,000 prosecutions in 2012\u201313, approximately 700,000 of which were in the magistrates\u2019 courts and 100,000 in the Crown Court. The conviction rate was 86% in the magistrates' courts and 80% in the Crown Courts.[1]\nThe Spending Review undertaken by HM Treasury in 2010 (and revised in 2013) has led to a budget decrease of almost 30% between 2010 and 2014, resulting in a restructure of the organisation and a large number of voluntary redundancies. The CPS has implemented measures such as the Core Quality Standards with the intention of maintaining and raising standards.\nAs of March 2013 the CPS employs more than 6,900 staff, 2,900 solicitors and barristers are on the advocate panel, employed externally or self-employed, who deal with all aspects of criminal casework.[1]\nCrown Prosecutors (also known as reviewing lawyers) provide advice to investigators and take charging decisions; Crown Advocates present prosecution cases in court; Associate Prosecutors represent the CPS in cases with guilty pleas in the magistrates' courts; and paralegals/casework assistants provide clerical support and help with progressing cases.\nSelf-employed barristers are also paid to represent the prosecution in court in more complicated cases (primarily in the Crown Court and appeal courts) and to provide expert advice when required.[1]\nThe number of employees prior to the spending review was approximately 9,000.\nHeadquartered in London and York, the CPS manages the organisation, sets policies and handles corporate matters (such as finance and communications). The Director of Public Prosecutions is assisted by the CPS Chief Executive in running the organisation.\nMost of its casework is dealt with by the thirteen CPS Areas, which are responsible for conducting prosecutions in specific parts of England and Wales; each area is led by a Chief Crown Prosecutor. The areas (with their respective police forces) are:\nCymru/Wales (Dyfed Powys, Gwent, North Wales, South Wales)\nEast Midlands (Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire)\nEastern (Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk, Suffolk)\nLondon (City of London, Metropolitan)\nMersey Cheshire (Cheshire, Merseyside)\nNorth East (Cleveland, Durham, Northumbria)\nNorth West (Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire)\nSouth East (Kent, Surrey, Sussex)\nSouth West (Avon and Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, Gloucestershire)\nThames and Chiltern (Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Thames Valley)\nWessex (Dorset, Hampshire & Isle of Wight, Wiltshire)\nWest Midlands (Staffordshire, Warwickshire, West Mercia, West Midlands)\nYorkshire and Humberside (West Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Humberside)\nPrior to the spending review, there were forty-two CPS Areas, mirroring the geographical boundaries of the police forces (except for CPS London, which has always dealt with both of the city's police forces).\nCPS Direct provides charging advice/authorisation by phone and electronically to police forces at all hours. Most charging decisions by the CPS are now made by CPS Direct, which then passes the prosecution to the appropriate CPS Area.\nThe Casework Divisions deal with prosecutions requiring specialist knowledge and experience:\nSpecialist Fraud Division \u2013 Complex frauds and cases investigated by HMRC and other agencies\nInternational Justice and Organised Crime Division \u2013 Serious organised crime and cases investigated by the National Crime Agency, and Extradition (formerly part of Special Crime)\nSpecial Crime and Counter Terrorism Division \u2013 Appeals, counter-terrorism, and special crime, which includes deaths in custody, public corruption and medical manslaughter.\nCPS Proceeds of Crime Unit \u2013 since 2014 this discrete casework division has been responsible for pre-charge restraint and post-conviction enforcement of orders made under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA 2002) and in the year 2016/17 recovered over \u00a380 million.\nOversightEdit\nThe Attorney General oversees the work of the CPS, meeting regularly with the DPP and requesting briefings on matters of public or Parliamentary concern. The Attorney General (or their deputy, the Solicitor General) answer for the CPS's performance and conduct in Parliament.\nHowever, the Attorney has no role in the day-to-day running of the organisation or in deciding whether a suspect should be prosecuted. The CPS is an independent prosecuting authority and government ministers have no influence over its decision making.\nThe only exceptions to this rule are when a case involves matters of national security or the Attorney must personally consent to a prosecution (e.g. all Official Secrets Act prosecutions require the Attorney General's permission to proceed). Due to the Attorney General's limited role in the CPS's casework, the use of nolle prosequi (halting of proceedings on indictment; a prerogative of the Attorney General) is now rare. Questionable incidents, such as the dropping of the case against John Bodkin Adams for what was believed to be purely political reasons, have not been repeated in modern times.\nInspectionEdit\nHer Majesty's Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMCPSI) is responsible for inspecting the work of the CPS.[7] The current Chief Inspector of the CPS is Kevin McGinty.[8]\nRoles and responsibilitiesEdit\nPre-charge adviceEdit\nThe CPS will often provide confidential advice to investigators on the viability of a prosecution in complex or unusual cases. This includes clarifying the intent needed to commit an offence or addressing shortcomings in the available evidence.\nUnlike in many other jurisdictions, the CPS has no power to order investigations or direct investigators to take action. Whether the CPS is asked for advice or a charging decision is entirely at the discretion of investigators (see History for background on this division of responsibilities in England & Wales).\nCharging decisionsEdit\nThe majority of decisions to charge are made by police forces, which have the authority to charge suspects with less serious offences, such as common assault or criminal damage with a low value. The CPS is responsible for taking all other charging decisions \u2013 including for serious offences such as murder and rape \u2013 and the police cannot charge suspects with these offences without authorisation from a Crown Prosecutor (except in emergency situations where police can charge without a prosecutor's authority in certain circumstances).[9]\nThe Code for Crown Prosecutors requires prosecutors to answer two questions in the 'Full Code Test': Is there sufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction? (in other words, whether a jury more likely than not to convict) and Is a prosecution required in the public interest? These questions must be answered in this order; if there is insufficient evidence, the public interest in prosecuting is irrelevant.\nAccording to the code, if there is insufficient evidence to prosecute, no further action will be taken against the suspect or the prosecutor will ask the police to carry out further inquiries to gather more evidence. When there is sufficient evidence but a prosecution is not required in the public interest, prosecutors can decide that no further action should be taken or that a caution or reprimand is a suitable alternative to prosecution.\nIn exceptional circumstances, prosecutors can authorise a charge without sufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction. This is known as the 'Threshold Test'; it is only applied when further evidence is expected to become available soon afterwards (e.g. results of forensic tests) and the suspect is believed to have committed a serious offence and would likely be denied bail by the court if charged. If the expected evidence to support a prosecution does not materialise, the prosecution must be stopped.\nConducting prosecutionsEdit\nWhether a decision to charge is taken by police or prosecutors, the CPS will conduct the case, which includes preparing the case for court hearings, disclosing material to the defence and presenting the case in court. The CPS will be represented in court from the first hearing through to conviction/sentencing, and in some cases appeal.\nAll prosecutions must be kept under continuous review and stopped if the Full Code Test (see above) is no longer satisfied or was never satisfied (i.e. the decision to charge was wrong). Mishandling of a case, such as failing to disclose evidence, can result in the courts either acquitting a defendant or quashing the conviction on appeal.\nWhen an appeal against conviction or sentence is lodged by a defendant, the CPS will decide whether or not to oppose the appeal after considering the grounds of appeal. If it decides to oppose, it will present relevant evidence and material to assist the appellate court.\nExceptionally, the CPS has invited defendants to appeal when it has concluded that the safety of a conviction was questionable, for example in the case of an undercover police officer Mark Kennedy.\nExtraditionEdit\nThe Extradition Act 2003 tasks the CPS with representing foreign states in extradition proceedings, normally heard at Westminster Magistrates' Court. While it acts on the foreign prosecutor\u2019s instructions, the CPS retains a discretion on how the case should be prosecuted.\nThe Extradition Unit at CPS Headquarters deals with all cases in which the extradition of a person within England and Wales is sought by another state and all cases in which the CPS is seeking the extradition of an individual outside the European Union. The CPS Areas prepare and manage their own extradition requests under the European Arrest Warrant framework.\nThe CPS faced embarrassment after it destroyed key emails relating to the WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Email exchanges between the CPS and the Swedish Prosecution Authority were deleted after CPS lawyer Paul Close retired from the CPS in 2014. The CPS \"unaccountably advised the Swedes in 2010 or 2011 not to visit London to interview Assange. An interview at that time could have prevented the long-running embassy standoff.\" The CPS data destruction was disclosed in a freedom of information case pursued by Italian investigative journalist Stephania Maurizi. Maurizi took her case against the CPS to an information tribunal in London on 13 and 14 November 2017.[10]\nHeadsEdit\nThese individuals have served as the Director of Public Prosecutions since the CPS was established in 1986:\nSir Thomas Hetherington, QC (1986\u201387) (DPP since 1977; became head of CPS)\nSir Allan Green, QC (1987 \u2013 October 1991)\nDavid Gandy (October 1991 \u2013 February 1992) (acting DPP)[citation needed]\nDame Barbara Mills, DBE, QC (February 1992 \u2013 1998)\nSir David Calvert-Smith, QC (1998\u20132003)\nSir Ken Macdonald, QC (2003\u20132008)\nSir Keir Starmer, QC (2008 \u2013 October 2013)\nAlison Saunders, CB (November 2013\u2013November 2018)\nMax Hill, QC (November 2018 - Present)\nRough Justice \u2013 about the circumstances leading to the formation of the CPS\nCrown Prosecutor \u2013 first television series to feature the CPS\nLaw & Order: UK \u2013 the British remake of Law & Order, features Metropolitan Police detectives working with CPS prosecutors\nElsewhere in the United Kingdom:\nCrown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (Scotland)\nPublic Prosecution Service for Northern Ireland\nAttorney General's Office (United Kingdom)\nCrown Prosecutor, the title given in a number of jurisdictions to the state prosecutor\nRevenue and Customs Prosecutions Office (Incorporated into the CPS in 2010)\nDistrict attorney (US)\n^ a b c d Crown Prosecution Service Annual Report 2012\u20132013 (PDF), Crown Prosecution Service, retrieved 14 February 2014\n^ a b The Crown Prosecution Service: History, The National Archives, archived from the original on 5 February 2007, retrieved 9 June 2014\n^ \"The Review of the Crown Prosecution Service\" (PDF).

        "raw_content": "A traditional ry\u016bteki fue\nA Japanese ry\u016bteki player in Kamakura, Kanagawa\nThe ry\u016bteki (\u9f8d\u7b1b, literally \"dragon flute\") is a Japanese transverse fue made of bamboo. It is used in gagaku, the Shinto classical music associated with Japan's imperial court. The sound of the ry\u016bteki is said to represent the dragons which ascend the skies between the heavenly lights (represented by the sh\u014d) and the people of the earth (represented by the hichiriki). The ry\u016bteki is one of the three flutes used in gagaku, in particular to play songs of Chinese style. The pitch is lower than that of the komabue and higher than that of the kagurabue.\nThe ry\u016bteki is held horizontally, has seven holes, and has a length of 40 centimetres (1 ft 4 in) and an inner diameter of 1.3 centimetres (1\u20442 in). Unlike the western flute, the holes are not covered by the fingertips, rather, the fleshy part of the finger is used. This allows for better control of \"half-holing\" techniques and chromatic notes, by simply raising the finger slightly above the holes.\nSince the late 20th century, a few ry\u016bteki players have begun to specialize in the performance of new music. One such performer is Takeshi Sasamoto.\nLois V Vierk is among the few non-Japanese musicians who have studied the instrument.\nRon Korb is a Canadian musician who has studied Ryuteki and incorporated it into his compositions.\nHans Werner Henze calls for this instrument for his El Cimarr\u00f3n, and Karlheinz Stockhausen scored for ry\u016bteki in the original Gagaku-ensemble version of Jahreslauf (act 1 of the opera Dienstag aus Licht).\nRon Korb's Asian Flute Gallery (features description and drawing of the Ryuteki and other Japanese flutes)\nThis article relating to musical instruments is a stub.

        "raw_content": "For other uses, see Thrace (disambiguation).\nThe modern boundaries of Thrace in Bulgaria, Greece, and Turkey.\nThe Byzantine thema of Thrace.\nMap of Ancient Thrace made by Abraham Ortelius in 1585, stating both the names Thrace and Europe.\nThrace and the Thracian Odrysian Kingdom under Sitalces c. 431\u2013324 BC.\nThrace (/\u03b8re\u026as/; Modern Greek: \u0398\u03c1\u03ac\u03ba\u03b7, Thr\u00e1ki; Bulgarian: \u0422\u0440\u0430\u043a\u0438\u044f, Trakiya; Turkish: Trakya) is a geographical and historical region in Southeast Europe, now split between Bulgaria, Greece and Turkey, which is bounded by the Balkan Mountains to the north, the Aegean Sea to the south and the Black Sea to the east. It comprises southeastern Bulgaria (Northern Thrace), northeastern Greece (Western Thrace) and the European part of Turkey (East Thrace).\nThe word Thrace was established by the Greeks for referring to the Thracian tribes, from ancient Greek Thrake (\u0398\u03c1\u1fb4\u03ba\u03b7),[1] descending from Thr\u0101ix (\u0398\u03c1\u1fb7\u03be).[2] It referred originally to the Thracians, an ancient Indo-European people inhabiting Southeast Europe. The name Europe first referred to Thrace proper, prior to the term vastly extending to refer to its modern concept. [3][4] The region could have been named after the principal river there, Hebros, possibly from the Indo-European arg \"white river\" (the opposite of Vardar, meaning \"black river\"),[5] . According to an alternative theory, Hebros means \"goat\" in Thracian.[6]\nIn Turkey, it is commonly referred to as Rumeli, Land of the Romans, owing to this region being the last part of the Eastern Roman Empire that was conquered by the Ottoman Empire.\nIn terms of ancient Greek mythology the name appears to derive from the heroine and sorceress Thrace, who was the daughter of Oceanus and Parthenope, and sister of Europa.\nThe historical boundaries of Thrace have varied. The ancient Greeks employed the term \"Thrace\" to refer to all of the territory which lay north of Thessaly inhabited by the Thracians,[7] a region which \"had no definite boundaries\" and to which other regions (like Macedonia and even Scythia) were added.[8] In one ancient Greek source, the very Earth is divided into \"Asia, Libya, Europa and Thracia\".[8] As the Greeks gained knowledge of world geography, \"Thrace\" came to designate the area bordered by the Danube on the north, by the Euxine Sea (Black Sea) on the east, by northern Macedonia in the south and by Illyria to the west.[8] This largely coincided with the Thracian Odrysian kingdom, whose borders varied over time. After the Macedonian conquest, this region's former border with Macedonia was shifted from the Struma River to the Mesta River.[9][10] This usage lasted until the Roman conquest. Henceforth, (classical) Thrace referred only to the tract of land largely covering the same extent of space as the modern geographical region.[clarification needed] In its early period, the Roman province of Thrace was of this extent, but after the administrative reforms of the late 3rd century, Thracia's much reduced territory became the six small provinces which constituted the Diocese of Thrace. The medieval Byzantine theme of Thrace contained only what today is East Thrace.\nCities of ThraceEdit\nMain article: List of cities of Thrace\nThe largest cities of Thrace were: Plovdiv, Burgas, Stara Zagora, Sliven, Haskovo, Yambol, Komotini, Alexandroupoli, Xanthi, Edirne, Istanbul, \u00c7orlu, K\u0131rklareli and Tekirda\u011f.\nDemographics and religionEdit\nMain articles: Demographics of Bulgaria, Demographics of Greece, and Demographics of Turkey\nSee also: Thracian Bulgarians and Turks of Western Thrace\nMost of the Bulgarian and Greek population are Orthodox Christians, while most of the Turkish inhabitants of Thrace are Sunni Muslims.\nAncient Greek mythologyEdit\nAncient Greek mythology provides the Thracians with a mythical ancestor Thrax, the son of the war-god Ares, who was said to reside in Thrace. The Thracians appear in Homer's Iliad as Trojan allies, led by Acamas and Peiros. Later in the Iliad, Rhesus, another Thracian king, makes an appearance. Cisseus, father-in-law to the Trojan elder Antenor, is also given as a Thracian king.\nHomeric Thrace was vaguely defined, and stretched from the River Axios in the west to the Hellespont and Black Sea in the east. The Catalogue of Ships mentions three separate contingents from Thrace: Thracians led by Acamas and Peiros, from Aenus; Cicones led by Euphemus, from southern Thrace, near Ismaros; and from the city of Sestus, on the Thracian (northern) side of the Hellespont, which formed part of the contingent led by Asius. Ancient Thrace was home to numerous other tribes, such as the Edones, Bisaltae, Cicones, and Bistones in addition to the tribe that Homer specifically calls the \u201cThracians\u201d.\nGreek mythology is replete with Thracian kings, including Diomedes, Tereus, Lycurgus, Phineus, Tegyrius, Eumolpus, Polymnestor, Poltys, and Oeagrus (father of Orpheus).\nThrace is mentioned in Ovid's Metamorphoses, in the episode of Philomela, Procne, and Tereus: Tereus, the King of Thrace, lusts after his sister-in-law, Philomela. He kidnaps her, holds her captive, rapes her, and cuts out her tongue. Philomela manages to get free, however. She and her sister, Procne, plot to get revenge, by killing her son Itys (by Tereus) and serving him to his father for dinner. At the end of the myth, all three turn into birds \u2013 Procne into a swallow, Philomela into a nightingale, and Tereus into a hoopoe.\nSee also: History of Western Thrace and History of East Thrace\nAncient and Roman historyEdit\nSkudrian (Thracian) soldier of the Achaemenid army, circa 480 BCE. Xerxes I tomb relief.\nThracian Tomb of Kazanlak.\nThe indigenous population of Thrace was a people called the Thracians, divided into numerous tribal groups. The region was controlled by the Persian Empire at its greatest extent,[11] and Thracian soldiers were known to be used in the Persian armies. Later on, Thracian troops were known to accompany neighboring ruler Alexander the Great when he crossed the Hellespont which abuts Thrace, during the invasion of the Persian Empire itself.\nThe Thracians did not describe themselves by name; terms such as Thrace and Thracians are simply the names given them by the Greeks.[12]\nDivided into separate tribes, the Thracians did not form any lasting political organizations until the founding of the Odrysian state in the 4th century BC. Like Illyrians, the locally ruled Thracian tribes of the mountainous regions maintained a warrior tradition, while the tribes based in the plains were purportedly more peaceable. Recently discovered funeral mounds in Bulgaria suggest that Thracian kings did rule regions of Thrace with distinct Thracian national identity.\nDuring this period, a subculture of celibate ascetics called the Ctistae lived in Thrace, where they served as philosophers, priests and prophets.\nSections of Thrace particularly in the south started to become hellenized before the Peloponnesian War as Athenian and Ionian colonies were set up in Thrace before the war. Spartan and other Doric colonists followed them after the war. The special interest of Athens to Thrace is underlined by the numerous finds of Athenian silverware in Thracian tombs.[13] In 168 BC, after the Third Macedonian war and the subjugation of Macedonia to the Romans, Thrace also lost its independence and became tributary to Rome. Towards the end of the 1st century BC Thrace lost its status as a client kingdom as the Romans began to directly appoint their kings. [14] This situation lasted until 46 AD, when the Romans finally turned Thrace into a Roman province (Romana provincia Thracia)[15]\nDuring the Roman domination, within the geographical borders of ancient Thrace, there were two separate Roman provinces, namely Thrace (\"provincia Thracia\") and Lower Moesia (\"Moesia inferior\"). Later, in the times of Diocletian, the two provinces were joined and formed the so-called \"Dioecesis Thracia\".[16] The establishment of Roman colonies and mostly several Greek cities, as was Nicopolis, Topeiros, Traianoupolis, Plotinoupolis and Hadrianoupolis resulted from the Roman Empire's urbanization. It is noteworthy that the Roman provincial policy in Thrace favored mainly not the Romanization but the Hellenization of the country, which had started as early as the Archaic period through the Greek colonisation and was completed by the end of Roman antiquity.[17] As regards the competition between the Greek and Latin language, the very high rate of Greek inscriptions in Thrace extending south of Haemus mountains proves the complete language Hellenization of this region. The boundaries between the Greek and Latin speaking Thrace are placed just above the northern foothills of Haemus mountains.[18]\nDuring the imperial period many Thracians \u2013 particularly members of the local aristocracy of the cities \u2013 had been granted the right of the Roman citizenship (civitas Romana) with all his privileges. Epigraphic evidence show a large increase in such naturalizations in the times of Trajan and Hadrian, while in 212 AD the emperor Caracalla granted, with his well-known decree (constitutio Antoniniana), the Roman citizenship to all the free inhabitants of the Roman Empire. [19] During the same period (in the 1st-2nd century AD), a remarkable presence of Thracians is testified by the inscriptions outside the borders (extra fines) both in the Greek territory [20] and in all the Roman provinces, especially in the provinces of Eastern Roman Empire. [21]\nMain articles: Macedonia (theme) and Thrace (theme)\nBy the mid 5th century, as the Western Roman Empire began to crumble, Thracia fell from the authority of Rome and into the hands of Germanic tribal rulers. With the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Thracia turned into a battleground territory for the better part of the next 1,000 years. The surviving eastern portion of the Roman Empire in the Balkans, later known as the Byzantine Empire, retained control over Thrace until the 8th century when the northern half of the entire region was incorporated into the First Bulgarian Empire and the remainder was reorganized in the Thracian theme. The Empire regained the lost regions in the late 10th century until the Bulgarians regained control of the northern half at the end of the 12th century. Throughout the 13th century and the first half of the 14th century, the region was changing in the hands of the Bulgarian and the Byzantine Empire (excluding Constantinople). In 1265 the area suffered a Mongol raid from the Golden Horde, led by Nogai Khan, and between 1305 and 1307 was raided by the Catalan company.[22]\nFlag of rebels of Thrace during the Greek War of Independence.\nIn 1352, the Ottoman Turks conducted their first incursion into the region subduing it completely within a matter of two decades and occupying it for five centuries. In 1821, several parts of Thrace, such as Lavara, Maroneia, Sozopolis, Aenos, Callipolis and Samothraki rebelled during the Greek War of Independence.\nProposal to cede East Thrace to Greece during World War I. This photocopy came from a larger color map.\nWith the Congress of Berlin in 1878, Northern Thrace was incorporated into the semi-autonomous Ottoman province of Eastern Rumelia, which united with Bulgaria in 1885. The rest of Thrace was divided among Bulgaria, Greece and Turkey at the beginning of the 20th century, following the Balkan Wars, World War I and the Greco-Turkish War. In Summer 1934, up to 10.000 Jews[23] were maltreated, bereaved and then forced to quit the region (see 1934 Thrace pogroms).\nToday, Thracian is a geographical term used in Greece, Turkey and Bulgaria.\nNotable ThraciansEdit\nOrpheus was, in Ancient Greek mythology, the chief representative of the art of song and playing the lyre.\nProtagoras was a Greek philosopher from Abdera, Thrace (c. 490\u2013420 BC.) An expert in rhetorics and subjects connected to virtue and political life, often regarded as the first sophist. He is known primarily for three claims: (1) that man is the measure of all things, often interpreted as a sort of moral relativism, (2) that he could make the \"worse (or weaker) argument appear the better (or stronger)\" (see Sophism), and (3) that one could not tell if the gods existed or not (see Agnosticism).\nHerodicus was a Greek physician of the fifth century BC who is considered the founder of sports medicine. He is believed to have been one of Hippocrates' tutors.\nDemocritus was a Greek philosopher and mathematician from Abdera, Thrace (c. 460\u2013370 BC.) His main contribution is the atomic theory, the belief that all matter is made up of various imperishable indivisible elements which he called atoms.\nSpartacus was a Thracian who led a large slave uprising in what is now Italy in 73\u201371 BC. His army of escaped gladiators and slaves defeated several Roman legions in what is known as the Third Servile War.\nA number of Roman emperors of the 3rd\u20135th century were of Thraco-Roman backgrounds (Maximinus Thrax, Licinius, Galerius, Aureolus, Leo the Thracian, etc.). These emperors were elevated via a military career, from the condition of common soldiers in one of the Roman legions to the foremost positions of political power.\nThracian godsEdit\nTwo main gods of the Bessi Thracians were Dionysus (worshiped as Zagreus) and Bendis. Zagreus was worshipped by followers of Orphism (the name given to a set of religious beliefs and practices associated with literature ascribed to the mythical poet Orpheus), whose late Orphic hymns invoke his name. Actually Zagreus was a Thracian god prototype later known as Dionysus \u2013 the god of joy, wine and ecstasy in the Greek and Bacchus in the Roman mythology.\nHolidays (mysteries) dedicated to Dionysus in Greece were called Dionysii; in Rome they were known as Bacchanalia and in Thrace as Rozalii. Orphic mysteries held in honor of Dionysus-Zagreus were performed only by devoted unmarried men. They were called a-bii, which means \"not alive\" because they did not lead an ordinary life. The mysteries were held in secret places far from the eyes of the ordinary people and were accompanied by choral songs and mimic games. The culmination of the mysteries was the symbolic death of the king-priest, identified with Zagreus who according to myth was torn apart by the Titans. Following the \"death\", the mother goddess was also symbolically born. The first part was carried out through a sacrifice of a bull, horse, goat or even people and the latter through a sexual orgy. Later on, Orphic mysteries became a part of the Bacchanalia.\nWine and fire were essential to the cult of Dionysus. The act of wine producing itself was recognized as a tale of the life and sorrow of the god. Picking and smashing the vines represent the way that the Titans tore Dionysus apart. That is why vinification was a mystery that was accompanied by sad songs.\nBendis was a goddess worshiped in Southwestern Thrace. She was typically presented as a hunter, wrapped with leather with boots and a fox fur hat. She holds a spear, a bow or a net and she is often accompanied by a hunting dog. In Greek mythology boots are a symbol of speed. Bendis is different from her Greek analogies in that she wears a fox hat.\nVine and Haberlea rhodopensis (Orpheus' flower) were objects of cult for the Bessi. Wine and flame were believed to cause euphoria. Svetonii Tranquil and Herodotus described rituals in which worshippers would divine by pouring wine on the altar and observing the height of the blaze. Other tribes would also burn a sacrificial animal on the altar. They believed that if the flames were vigorous, the year would be fruitful.\nThe Trakiya Heights in Antarctica \"are named after the historical region.\"[24]\n1989 expulsion of Turks from Bulgaria\nCeltic settlement of Eastern Europe\nHawks of Thrace\nMusic of Thrace\nThe Destruction of Thracian Bulgarians in 1913\nTurkish Republic of Thrace\n^ \u0398\u03c1\u1fb4\u03ba\u03b7.

        "title": "Afghanistan 'most important issue' for NATO",
        "raw_content": "Afghanistan 'most important issue' for NATO\n( USA TODAY )- Iraq may dominate the headlines more often, but when leaders of 26 NATO nations gather in Bucharest, Romania, this week for their annual summit, the war in Afghanistan will be the hot topic.\nPresident Bush will seek more help against the resurgent Taliban from NATO allies reluctant to put troops at risk, particularly when public sentiment in Europe runs against a long-term commitment.\n\"This is the most important issue facing NATO. All the other issues are secondary,\" says James Goldgeier , senior fellow for transatlantic relations at the Council on Foreign Relations. \"It really cuts to the core of whether or not this alliance is relevant to the 21st century.\"\nBefore the week is out, decisions will be made on NATO membership for three Balkan nations - Albania, Croatia and Macedonia. Two former Soviet republics, Ukraine and Georgia, will seek to begin the membership process. Russia opposes that effort, as well as U.S. missile-defense plans for Eastern Europe, so Bush will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Black Sea resort of Sochi to try to smooth relations between the two old Cold Warriors.\nStill, the NATO commitment in Afghanistan will dominate discussions. For nearly five years, NATO has led the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, a coalition of 40 nations. The United States, which has about 17,000 troops under the ISAF and 14,000 operating separately, has almost four times as many troops in Afghanistan as any other country.\nEight others - Britain, Germany, Italy, Canada, the Netherlands, France, Poland and Australia - have more than 1,000 troops stationed there. Seven countries have 10 or fewer; Georgia has one.\nNATO members committed to boosting efforts in Afghanistan 16 months ago at a summit in Riga, Latvia. But last fall, NATO failed to come up with 3,000 additional troops sought by the United States. As a result, 3,200 Marines are being sent.\nCanada has threatened to withdraw its troops. French President Nicolas Sarkozy indicated last week that he would commit an additional 1,000 troops on top of the 1,515 there. That's likely to be the best news out of Bucharest, despite Bush's call for more assistance.\n\"Frankly, the bar is low enough that 1,000 French troops would constitute success,\" says Philip Gordon, former director for European affairs at the National Security Council and a senior fellow for U.S. foreign policy at the Brookings Institution. \"It's a saleable outcome, but it's far from perfect.\"\nBush was upbeat last week in an interview with foreign reporters. Sarkozy's additional commitment \"will pretty much ensure that this conference is a successful conference, because nations will watch very carefully,\" he said. \"It is a strong statement that NATO understands the threats, understands the challenges and is willing to rise to them.\"\nNational security adviser Stephen Hadley says Bush will stress \"the need for all countries to make ( Afghanistan) a priority, the need for us to develop a more integrated strategy for success and the need for all of us to do more.\"\nThe French commitment could stop Canada from withdrawing, because it would free some U.S. troops to leave eastern Afghanistan and go south to help Canadian troops there.\nBut France's move isn't likely to spur much in the way of additional offers from other countries. Nor is it likely to prompt nations such as Germany, Italy or Spain to permit their troops to conduct counterinsurgency operations, as opposed to force protection and reconstruction work.\nThe United States has pushed repeatedly for these nations to lift such limits, which are also called caveats.\n\"I see no indication whatsoever that in Germany, there's any appetite either for major troop increases or for an expansion of the mission,\" says Charles Kupchan , a Council on Foreign Relations senior fellow.\nThe reaction in much of Europe, Goldgeier says, is \" 'we didn't sign up for that.' \"\nAlthough the American public is more supportive of the war in Afghanistan than it is of the conflict in Iraq, some European allies see the U.S. effort in Afghanistan as unfocused, says Julianne Smith, Europe program director at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. \"You've got a little bit of finger-pointing going on,\" she says.",

        "title": "1987 Fijian coups d'\u00e9tat - Wikipedia",
        "raw_content": "The Fijian coups of 1987 resulted in the overthrow of the elected government of Fijian Prime Minister Timoci Bavadra, the deposition of Elizabeth II as Queen of Fiji, and in the declaration of a republic. The first coup, in which Bavadra was deposed, took place on 14 May 1987; a second coup on 28 September ended the monarchy, and was shortly followed by the proclamation of a republic on 7 October. Both military actions were led by Lieutenant Colonel Sitiveni Rabuka, then third in command of the Royal Fiji Military Forces. Depending on perspective, one may view the event either as two successive coups d'\u00e9tat separated by a four-month intermission, or as a single coup begun on 14 May and completed with the declaration of the republic.\n2 Coups d'etat\n2.1 May coup\n2.2 October coup\n3 International involvement\nBoth before and after Fiji gained its independence from the United Kingdom in 1970, tensions between the indigenous Fijian and Indo-Fijian ethnic groups (comprising an estimated 46% and 49% of the 1987 population, respectively) continually manifested themselves in social and political unrest. Parliamentary elections in April 1987 resulted in the replacement of the indigenous-led Conservative government of Prime Minister Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara with a multi-ethnic Labour-led coalition supported mostly by the Indo-Fijian plurality, and Rabuka claimed ethnic Fijian concerns of racial discrimination as his excuse for seizing power. Many authorities doubt the veracity of this, however, given existing constitutional guarantees.\nCoups d'etat[edit]\nMay coup[edit]\nOn the morning of 14 May, around 10 am, a section of ten masked, armed soldiers entered the Fijian House of Representatives and subdued the national legislature, which had gathered there for its morning session. Lieutenant Colonel Sitiveni Rabuka, dressed in civilian clothes, approached Prime Minister Timoci Bavadra from his position in the public gallery and ordered the members of parliament to leave the building. They did so without resisting. The coup was an apparent success, and had been accomplished without loss of life.\nAt around 11 am, Radio Fiji announced the news of the military takeover. Rabuka was reported to have gone to Government House to see the Governor-General. He was seeking recognition of the military action and the overthrow of the Bavadra government. A caretaker government was to be named shortly, and the public was urged to \"remain calm and continue with their daily work.\"[1] At the meeting, the Governor-General (who was Rabuka's paramount chief) gave a mild rebuke to Rabuka. He asked him \"What have you done?\" and \"You mean I have no job?\" He added that Rabuka should have given the deposed government more time. The meeting ended with the Governor-General stating \"Good luck, I hope you know what you are doing.\"[1]\nFollowing the coup, the Governor-General commissioned a Constitution Review Committee, led by Sir John Falvey to look at the \"deficiencies\" of Fiji's 1970 constitution. The review of the constitution was stacked with individuals who supported the coup.[citation needed]\nThe commission was to begin hearings on 6 July, and deliver its recommendations to the Governor General by 31 July. Its terms of reference were to \"strengthen the representation of indigenous Fijians, and in so doing bear in mind the best interests of other peoples in Fiji.\"[2] The Commission received 860 written and 120 oral submissions, and produced a report recommending a new unicameral legislature comprising 36 Fijians (28 elected and 8 appointed by the Great Council of Chiefs), 22 Indo-Fijians, 8 General electors, 1 Rotuman, and up to four nominees of the Prime Minister. National constituencies, ethnically allocated and elected by universal suffrage, were to be abolished, and all voting was to be communal. The Prime Minister's post was to be reserved for an indigenous Fijian.[3][4]\nThe Governor-General dissolved parliament and granted amnesty to Rabuka, while promoting him to the position of commander of the Royal Fiji Military Forces. The actions of the Governor-General were viewed with suspicion by the deposed government and Bavadra challenged Ratu Sir Penaia's decision in the Supreme Court of Fiji.[1]\nOctober coup[edit]\nFrom independence in 1970, Fiji's head of State was the Queen of Fiji, Elizabeth II. The Fijian Supreme Court ruled the coup unconstitutional, and the Governor-General attempted to assert executive power. He opened negotiations known as the Deuba Talks with both the deposed government, and the Alliance Party, which most indigenous Fijians supported. These negotiations culminated in the Deuba Accord of 23 September 1987, which provided for a government of national unity, in which both parties would be represented under the leadership of the Governor-General. Fearing that the gains of the first coup were about to be lost, Rabuka staged a second coup on 25 September.\nInternational involvement[edit]\nSee also: Operation Morris Dance\nAustralia and New Zealand, the two nations with foremost political influence in the region, were somewhat disquieted by the event, but ultimately took no action to intervene. They did, however, establish a policy of non-recognition regarding the new government, suspending foreign aid in concert with the United States and the United Kingdom.\nThe Australian labour movement, taking the ousting of a Labor Party-led government as an affront to the worldwide labour movement, instituted an embargo against shipments to Fiji. As Australia was Fiji's largest foreign trading partner, this resulted in a large diminution in Fiji's international trade.\nThe United Nations immediately denounced the coup, demanding that the former government be restored. On 7 October the new regime declared Fiji a republic, revoking the 1970 constitution; the Commonwealth responded with Fiji's immediate expulsion from the association.\nA new constitution was ratified in 1990, in which the offices of President and Prime Minister, along with two-thirds of the Senate, a substantial majority of the House of Representatives were reserved for indigenous Fijians. These discriminatory provisions were eventually overturned by a constitutional revision in 1997.\nThe coups triggered much emigration by Indo-Fijians (particularly skilled workers), making them a minority by 1994. Today, however, though Fiji struggles economically, the country has been able to slowly recover from this loss of necessary skills.\n^ a b c Brij V.

        "raw_content": "Minor allele frequency (MAF) is the frequency at which the second most common allele occurs in a given population.\nSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with a minor allele frequency of 0.05 (5%) or greater were targeted by the HapMap project.[1]\nMAF is widely used in population genetics studies because it provides information to differentiate between common and rare variants in the population. As an example, a 2015 study sequenced the whole genomes of 2,120 Sardinian individuals. The authors classified the variants found in the study in three classes according to their MAF. It was observed that rare variants (MAF < 0.05) appeared more frequently in coding regions than common variants (MAF > 0.05) in this population.[2]\nHow to interpret MAF data[edit]\n1. Introduce the reference of a SNP of interest, as an example: rs429358, in a database (dbSNP or other).\n2. Find MAF/MinorAlleleCount link. MAF/MinorAlleleCount: C=0.1506/754 (1000 Genomes)[3]; where C is the minor allele for that particular locus; 0.1506 is the frequency of the C allele (MAF), i.e. 15% within the 1000 Genomes database; and 754 is the number of times this SNP has been observed in the population of the study.\n^ The International HapMap Consortium (2005). \"A haplotype map of the human genome\".

It was completed in December 2003 and opened in April 2004.[10] With 41 floors, it is 180 metres (591 ft) tall[3] and stands on the former sites of the Baltic Exchange and Chamber of Shipping, which were extensively damaged in 1992 by a bomb placed by the Provisional IRA in St Mary Axe, a narrow street leading north from Leadenhall Street.[4][11]\nAfter plans to build the 92-storey Millennium Tower were dropped, 30 St Mary Axe was designed by Norman Foster and Arup Group.[12] It was erected by Skanska; construction started in 2001.[3]\nThe building has become a recognisable feature of London, and it is one of the city's most widely recognised examples of contemporary architecture.\n1.1 Planning process\n3 After completion\nThe building stands on the former sites of the Baltic Exchange (24-28 St Mary Axe), which was the headquarters of a global marketplace for shipping freight contracts and also soft commodities, and the Chamber of Shipping (30-32 St Mary Axe). On 10 April 1992, the Provisional IRA detonated a bomb close to the Exchange, causing extensive damage to the historic building and neighbouring structures.[4][11]\nThe United Kingdom government's statutory adviser on the historic environment, English Heritage, and the City of London's governing body, the City of London Corporation, were keen that any redevelopment must restore the Baltic Exchange's old fa\u00e7ade onto St Mary Axe. The Exchange Hall was a celebrated fixture of the shipping market.[13][14]\nEnglish Heritage then discovered that the damage was far more severe than initially thought, and they stopped insisting on full restoration, albeit over the objections of architectural conservationists.[15] The Baltic Exchange and the Chamber of Shipping sold the land to Trafalgar House in 1995.[16] Most of the remaining structures on the Baltic Exchange site were then carefully dismantled, and the interior of Exchange Hall and the fa\u00e7ade were preserved, hoping for a reconstruction of the building in the future.[16] The salvaged material was eventually sold for \u00a3800,000 and moved to Tallinn, Estonia, where it awaits reconstruction as the centrepiece of the city's commercial sector.\nIn 1996, Trafalgar House submitted plans for the Millennium Tower, a 386-metre (1,266 ft) building with more than 140,000 m2 (1,500,000 sq ft) of office space, apartments, shops, restaurants and gardens. This plan was dropped after objections that it was totally out-of-scale in the City of London, and anticipated disruption to flight paths for both London City and London Heathrow airports; the revised plan for a lower tower was accepted.\nThe tower's topmost panoramic dome, known as the \"lens\", recalls the iconic glass dome that covered part of the ground floor of the Baltic Exchange and much of which is now displayed at the National Maritime Museum.[4][17]\nThe Gherkin nickname was applied to the current building at least as long ago as 1999, referring to that plan's highly unorthodox layout and appearance.[18]\nPlanning process[edit]\nOn 23 August 2000, Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott granted planning permission to construct a building much larger than the old Exchange on the site.[13] The site was special because it needed development, it was not on any of the \"sight lines\" (planning guidance requires that new buildings do not obstruct or detract from the view of St Paul's dome when viewed from a number of locations around London), and it had housed the Baltic Exchange.\nThe plan for the site was to reconstruct the Baltic Exchange. GMW Architects proposed a new rectangular building surrounding a restored exchange: it would have the type of large floor plan that banks liked. Eventually, the planners realised that the exchange was not recoverable, forcing them to relax their building constraints; they hinted that an \"architecturally significant\" building might obtain a favourable reception from City authorities. This gave the architect a free hand in the design; it eliminated the restrictive[clarification needed] demands for a large, capital-efficient, money-making building, whose design was per the client's desire.[clarification needed][19]\nThe new building's low-level plan satisfied the planning authority's desire to maintain London's traditional streetscape, with its narrow streets. The mass[clarification needed] of the tower was not too imposing. Like Barclays Bank's former City headquarters in Lombard Street, the idea was that the passer-by in neighbouring streets would be nearly oblivious to the tower's existence until directly underneath it.\nThe building was constructed by Skanska, completed in December 2003 and opened on 28 April 2004.[4] The primary occupant of the building is Swiss Re, a global reinsurance company, which had the building commissioned as the head office for its UK operation. The tower is thus sometimes known as the Swiss Re Building, although this name has never been official and has more recently fallen out of favour, since the company's main headquarters is in Zurich[so what?] and the Gherkin name has become more popular.[20]\nThe building uses energy-saving methods which allow it to use only half the power that a similar tower would typically consume.[20] Gaps in each floor create six shafts that serve as a natural ventilation system for the entire building, even though required firebreaks on every sixth floor interrupt the \"chimney\". The shafts create a giant double glazing effect; air is sandwiched between two layers of glazing and insulates the office space inside.[4]\nArchitects promote double glazing in residential houses, which avoids the inefficient convection of heat across the relatively narrow gap between the panes, but the tower exploits this effect. The shafts pull warm air out of the building during the summer and warm the building in the winter using passive solar heating. The shafts also allow sunlight to pass through the building, making the work environment more pleasing, and keeping the lighting costs down.\nThe primary methods for controlling wind-excited sways are to increase the stiffness, or increase damping with tuned/active mass dampers. To a design by Arup, its fully triangulated perimeter structure makes the building rigid enough without any extra reinforcements. Despite its overall curved glass shape, there is only one piece of curved glass on the building, the lens-shaped cap at the apex.[4]\nOn the building's top level (the 40th floor), there is a bar for tenants and their guests, with a panoramic view of London. A restaurant operates on the 39th floor, and private dining rooms on the 38th.[20] Most buildings have extensive lift equipment on the roof of the building, but this was not possible for the Gherkin, since a bar had been planned for the 40th floor. The architects dealt with this by having the main lift only reach the 34th floor, and also a push-from-below lift to the 39th floor. There is a marble stairwell and a disabled persons' lift, which leads the visitor up to the bar in the dome.\nThe building is visible over long distances: From the north, for instance, it can be seen from the M11 motorway, some 32 kilometres (20 mi) away,[20][21] while to the west it can be seen from the statue of George III in Windsor Great Park.\nAfter completion[edit]\nIn April 2005, a glass panel, two thirds up the tower, fell to the plaza beneath. The plaza was sealed off, but the building remained open. A temporary covered walkway, extending across the plaza to the building's reception, was erected to protect visitors. Engineers examined the other 744 glass panels on the building.[22] The cost of repair was covered by main contractor Skanska and curtain-wall supplier Schmidlin (now called Schmidlin-TSK AG).[20]\nSince its completion, the building has won a number of awards for architecture. In October 2004, the architect was awarded the 2004 RIBA Stirling Prize. For the first time in the prize's history, the judges were unanimous.[23] In December 2005, a survey of the world's largest firms of architects published in 2006 BD World Architecture 200 voted the tower as the most admired new building in the world. However, Ken Shuttleworth, who worked for Foster and Partners on the design of the building, said in 2011 that he believed the style was now out-moded: \"I was looking at the glass all around and [thought], 'Why on earth did we do that?' Now we would do things differently\".[24] The building featured in recent films such as Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Russell Crowe's A Good Year, Sharon Stone's Basic Instinct 2, and Woody Allen's Match Point[25] and, rechristened the Spirit of London, became the spaceship centrepiece of Keith Mansfield's 2008 novel Johnny Mackintosh and the Spirit of London.[26]\nIn September 2006, the building was put up for sale with a price tag of \u00a3600 million.[27] Potential buyers included British Land, Land Securities, Prudential, ING, and the Abu Dhabi royal family. On 21 February 2007, IVG Immobilien AG and UK investment firm Evans Randall completed their joint purchase of the building for \u00a3630 million, making it Britain's most expensive office building.[28][29] Swiss Re booked a gain of more than \u00a3300 million from the sale.[30] The new owners are seeking compensation from four of their former managers on the deal, in which about \u00a3620 million was paid for a building with a build cost of about \u00a3200 million, giving the previous owners a clear \u00a3300 million profit.[31]\nSince February 2010,[32] Sky News has broadcast its flagship business programme, Jeff Randall Live, from a studio in the building. In addition the top two floors of tower are now available on a private hire basis for events.[33]\nDeloitte announced in April 2014 that the building was again being put up for sale, with an expected price of \u00a3550 million.[34] The current owners could not afford to make loan repayments, citing differences in the value of the multi-currency loan and the British pound, high interest rates and general financing structure.[35] In November 2014, the Gherkin was purchased for \u00a3700 million by the Safra Group, controlled by the Brazilian billionaire Joseph Safra.[8]\nAs of January 2015, current occupiers of the building include the following:\nAdditionally, retailers and restaurants operate from the site, such as The Sterling and Bridge's Newsagent.\nTorre Gl\u00f2ries, a similar-shaped building in Barcelona\nTour D2, a similar-shape building in Paris\nDoha Tower a similar-shaped building in Doha\nWillis Building, another Norman Foster building\n^ \"Gherkin London\".\n^ \"The Gherkin\".\n^ a b c \"30 St Mary Axe, London\".

        "raw_content": "Last night, I realized something: I was using a lot of jargon. That is, the problem I was describing in my last post is directly related to my using jargon in regard to beadwork which I\u2019ve grown up with, but which is unfamiliar to most.\nThe word for it didn\u2019t come to me until early this morning when I was trying to get to sleep, though.\nAnd\u2026once again, I find myself considering the impact of having my online life linked with my physical one. If I did start selling again, for example, do I link my online presence here, or start a new blog (or new website)? The latter will be easy enough to set up\u2026but there are also some drawbacks, primarily related to the possibility of using a database.\nI think Etsy is a better first option.\nAnd\u2026the person I am now, at core, isn\u2019t going to change. I have been talking here about things such as gender identity and presentation, and mental health. This is because this is a personal blog \u2014 not a professional one \u2014 and this stuff isn\u2019t talked about enough in regular life. Also, if I\u2019m going to do creative writing, that stuff\u2019s going to come out, or I won\u2019t be able to write. It\u2019s just that a business presence would likely not have those things, kind of like how I try not to bother you all with my politics.\nIf I started selling online, it would make sense to start an actual website for a business presence (aside from the one I\u2019ve had to start for school).\nThen I could post about beadwork, there! \ud83d\ude42\nI have noticed that there are alternate venues to talk about this stuff, largely going off of what other bloggers have linked. There are also the more obvious routes\u2026going by offline word-of-mouth to find both places to sell and places to talk to other beaders.\nYeah. I\u2019ve had that information for a while, and just haven\u2019t followed up on it. Sounds good. I would need to network.\nIn other affairs\u2026I\u2019m leaning about 70% towards not taking a third class in my last semester. This is both because I might have a 20-hour job then, and because I like having actual time for myself. If I have extra time, I can put it into a side business.",

        "raw_content": "J&K Assembly dissolved after rival alliances stake claim to form govt\nJammu and Kashmir Governor Satyapal Malik dissolved the State Assembly last evening after rival alliances staked claim to form the government.\nFormer Chief Minister and PDP President Mehbooba Mufti staked claim saying that her party, which has 29 MLAs, has the backing of 15 lawmakers of National Conference and 12 of Congress.\nShortly after Ms Mufti approached the Governor, Sajad Lone, leader of People\u2019s Conference, which has two seats, staked claim for government formation with the support of the BJP, has 25 seats, and more than 18 other elected members. In the 87-member Assembly, the majority mark is 44.\nLater in a communique released by Raj Bhavan, the Governor cited four main reasons for dissolving the Assembly with immediate effect. These include extensive horse-trading and possible exchange of money and the impossibility of forming a stable government by parties with opposing political ideologies.\nThe Governor said, the best course of action is to dissolve the Assembly so as to provide stability and security to the state and hold elections at an appropriate time so that a government with a clear mandate is formed.\nThe Governor\u2019s rule was imposed in the state on 19th June for a 6-month period following the collapse of the PDP-BJP coalition government after BJP withdrew its support. The state assembly was kept in suspended animation so that political parties could explore the possibility of forming a new government.\nThe tenure of the Governor\u2019s rule ends on the 18th of next month which will be followed by President\u2019s rule.The state went to polls at the end of 2014 and the Assembly\u2019s tenure was till October 2020.\nThe State will now be placed under President\u2019s rule on December 20 after the six months tenure of Governor\u2019s rule comes to an end. Governor\u2019s rule was clamped in the state on June 19 for a 6 month period following the collapse of the PDP-BJP coalition government after BJP withdrew support. The state assembly was also kept in suspended animation so that political parties could explore the possibility of formation of new government.",

It argues that the translation of 'genos' as 'sex' reveals less about the source text than about the role of the concept of sex in the translating culture. A discussion of a similar controversy in contemporary translation shows how debates over the French translation of 'gender' as genre are embroiled in issues of national identity. The chapter demonstrates how translation and its analysis may simultaneously express and contest cultural assumptions about sex and gender.\ngenos, sex, gender, genre, Plato\nFaculty of Arts and Social Sciences > Centre for Research in Modern European Philosophy (CRMEP)",

He founded and coached the Sacramento-based California Storm, coaching the likes of Brandi Chastain, Julie Foudy and Alex Morgan through the years.\nZanelli grew the WPSL\u2019s footprint rapidly; 106 teams competed in the 2018 season for the Jerry Zanelli Cup, the championship trophy named in his honor before the start of the league\u2019s 21st season.\n\u201cI want to say thank you to Jerry for all he has done to make women\u2019s soccer a viable option for girls and young women who are determined to continue their careers once done with college,\u201d Chastain said in a statement. \u201cJerry has been a beacon of light in a dark place for so long, not for personal gain, but to give the opportunity and share the great game.\n\u201cI couldn\u2019t be any more grateful, and U.S. Soccer and fans around the world should praise his name as he helped give many national team players a field and team to play on when options were extremely limited.\u201d\nZanelli was inducted in to the United States Adult Soccer Association Hall of Fame in 2009. He also founded the Men\u2019s Premier Soccer League in 2003, which is the present-day National Premier Soccer League (NPSL). The NPSL had 98 clubs competing across the United States during its 2018 season. He spent most of his life outside of soccer in politics.\n\u201cJerry has been the leader of women\u2019s soccer in the United States,\u201d said John Motta, president of the United States Adult Soccer Association, in a statement. \u201cHe worked tirelessly to see that the women in this country had a viable competitive league to continue to play the sport they love.\n\u201cHis vision and his understanding of what it took to keep a women\u2019s competitive league going was beyond anyone\u2019s comprehension. There are many females in this country that owe Jerry many thanks for what he has done.\u201d\nRelated TopicsJerry ZanelliWPSL",

I think that makes the song more unique. It gives the feeling that the song actually is a representation of the country. I like this song, but it\u2019s not a winner. I think it will bring a nice change to the second semi-final, and to the contest overall. Last time I said that I really wanted to see the energy of the song on stage, and I still have that opinion. I hope they will be able to create a party on stage. I do think they will have some difficulties qualifying to the final. For me they deserve it because there are a lot of songs in that semi-final that I like less. At the two previous editions of the Eurovision Song Contest, Belarus failed to qualify. So you could say that their popularity is fading away. That\u2019s why I think they won\u2019t be in the final again this year.\nBelarus, ESC2017",

This research and its results are to be published by Special Scientists Andreas Roloff and Dr. Sten Gillner to a Mediterranean Ecology Scientific Journal in 2015, followed by a scientific conference including the specific topic.\nThe BoD of the Ionian Islands of Greece Union is ready to take all necessary actions so that these perennial olive trees may be declared as natural monuments, since the results given by Dresden University, describing the old age, the height, and the large diameter of the beautiful imposing olive trees in Strongyli, Corfu, highlight their historical and cultural importance.",

        "raw_content": "By Experience Life Staff | June 2014\nSleep is essential to our health. A deficit can compromise our immune systems, cause inflammation, lead to memory loss and weight gain, hamper reflexes and decision-making skills, and increase the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and type 2 diabetes.\nUntil now, though, the exact mechanisms of how sleep helps us were more or less a mystery.\nWhile we slumber, report researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center in the journal Science, our brains flush out toxins that build up when we\u2019re awake \u2014 allowing us to clear our heads.\n\u201cThis study [on mice] shows that the brain has different functional states when asleep and when awake,\u201d says study lead author Maiken Nedergaard, MD, DMSc. \u201cIn fact, the restorative nature of sleep appears to be the result of the active clearance of the byproducts of neural activity that accumulate during wakefulness.\u201d\nThe glymphatic system in our brains serves as plumbing: It includes a network of passageways between the brain\u2019s cells that controls the flow of the clear liquid surrounding the brain and spinal cord, known as cerebrospinal fluid.\nThese passageways undergo dramatic changes between sleep and waking moments. Specifically, the study showed, sleep increases the space where cerebrospinal fluid circulates by 60 percent, allowing room for unnecessary byproducts to be flushed from the brain.\nFor example, almost every neurodegenerative disease \u2014 including Alzheimer\u2019s \u2014 is associated with the buildup of toxic proteins in the brain. Researchers suspect that it is the accumulation of these proteins that can kill neurons and lead to dementia. Sleep appears to support the brain\u2019s innate ability to identify and dump these damaging proteins.\n\u201cSleep changes the cellular structure of the brain,\u201d Nedergaard says. \u201cIt appears to be in a completely different state.\u201d\n2 comments on \u201cHow Sleep Clears the Mind\u201d\nstefanie kuhlman on August 2nd, 2014 - 6:48am\nOr get your cortisol level checked (1st thing in the a.m.)\nKurt N. Woeller, D.O. on July 24th, 2014 - 7:02pm\nThere is no doubt optimal sleep makes a huge difference in health and longevity. Unfortunately, there can be many reasons for poor sleep, i.e. poor diet, anxiety and stress, chemical imbalances. A major reason for poor sleep often goes unnoticed and under-appreciated by the traditional medical community \u2013 Adrenal Exhaustion. The adrenal glands are intimately linked to brain function through the production of cortisol. Too little cortisol and our brain cells under function. Too much cortisol and the brain is over-stimulated creating difficulties in turning off electrical activity in the brain. This latter situation makes it very difficult for the brain to relax and enter the deeper states of sleep. For anyone dealing with poor sleep it is recommended to have adrenal function tested to evaluate for deficiency or excess production of cortisol. A good nights sleep can depend on it.\nYou Snooze, You Win (Benefits of Sleep)\nGetting enough sleep is essential to health, happiness and productivity. Here\u2019s how to give your slumber the priority it deserves.\nWhat you eat (and what you don\u2019t) can have a powerful influence on how well you sleep.",

        "raw_content": "We shifted some of the things we normally do this time and as a result, it was exactly as it needed to be. It ended up being a much easier pace for us, which was so needed and welcome at this point in our travels.\nWe are so blessed to have a few prayer ministers in house here at the YWAM base so we both had the Saturday afternoon free to mingle and also to rest. This has been one of the challenges we\u2019ve had over the past 3 events. The demand for prayer ministry has been so great that we\u2019ve been scheduled full on the Saturday afternoons. As a result, we haven\u2019t had time to connect and build relationships with the ladies, which is something we really love doing.\nWe just got an email this morning from one of the ladies who attended. She said,\n\u201cThank you so much for being so transparent and open with yourselves ...writing the book that I can so relate to...I have been lost...!!! This weekend has given me hope I can make my way back.\u201d We absolutely LOVE watching God do stuff like this!\nOne of our UK Advisors, Helen Brough, was part of the weekend, and I have to say, there is a reason we have advisors here. This precious advisor always earns her keep. She is full of wisdom and she spoke some much-needed life into us. She gave us practical advice, helped us think through some strategic things, loved on us, and laughed with us \u2013 a lot! She is always a breath of fresh air, and her presence this weekend was so well timed because\u2026\nThis year has been different than previous trips on many levels as we are beginning to feel the growing pains of God expanding our sphere of influence here. With that comes the need to reflect, regroup and re-imagine what ministry here looks like as we continue to dream with God.\nOne question we\u2019ve bumped into pretty hard over the last week is, \u201cIs what we\u2019re doing in its current form sustainable for future growth?\u201d The answer \u2013 a resounding, \u201cno!\u201d We have been pouring out for just over a month now. Consistently. Without the space, opportunity, or ability to get filled back up. As a result, we both hit a huge wall going into this past weekend. It wasn\u2019t pretty.\nMinistry is amazingly beautiful. Having a front row seat to what God is doing in a person\u2019s life brings such joy. We are incredibly honored to be part of what God is doing in this land, AND \u2013 it is also physically and emotionally exhausting. Because of this, we are taking a more intentional look at self-care. What is it that we each uniquely need to regroup and refuel between weekends, and how do we best get it?\nWhen we initially planned the schedule for this trip, we had this coming weekend as an off week. We were then asked to do a one day Taste of Dash Away, which we agreed to. After we got here, we heard that the group that wanted it was no longer meeting as a group and they wanted to cancel. This freed the weekend up again. We should have caught the hint, as we know now that God really did want us to have the weekend off. But we didn\u2019t. We scheduled another one day Taste about 90 minutes away from where we have been based.\nAfter the wall we hit going into this past weekend event, we both agreed that for our own self-care, we needed to cancel and free the weekend up again - especially since we travel to Ireland one week from today.\nWe never want ladies to miss out on an opportunity to encounter God, but after last week, it was abundantly clear to both of us that if we didn\u2019t take the weekend off, it would not be healthy for us. If we\u2019re depleted, we have nothing to give, because you cannot pour from an empty cup.\nSo, here we are, still at the YWAM base in West Kilbride, taking a few days to recuperate in a sweet little flat overlooking the sea with the Isle of Arran in the distance. This base is so peaceful and so saturated with the presence of God. It truly is a haven. We have some friends here, and are making more along the way. We are grateful for an opportunity to rest in such a beautiful setting as we recharge for our ministry in Ireland.\nWe would appreciate your prayers for us as we continue to move forward. We really are tired and depleted on so many levels. Also, please pray with us that we would be aligned with God\u2019s strategy as the ministry continues to expand here in this land. We know this is all His idea to begin with, so we are confident He has a plan to make it sustainable for the long haul.\nNewer PostAslan is on the Move\nOlder PostFeeding Lambs in Mintlaw",

        "raw_content": "Researchers Developed Freeze-dried Polio Vaccine that Could Help Eradicate the Disease\nPolio, a disease that once paralyzed over 350,000 people around the world, has dropped to just about 407 cases in 2013 due to Polio vaccine, as reported by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Although the disease is on the brink of eradication with only 22 reported cases in 2017 worldwide, it still lurks in many countries as storage and transportation of the vaccine require refrigeration.\nA team of researchers at the University of Southern California (USC) have been able to develop a polio vaccine that doesn\u2019t need refrigeration, suggesting it could someday be used worldwide to completely eradicate the disease. The researchers freeze dried the injectable vaccine into a powder, stored it in room temperature for four weeks, and they rehydrated. When tested in mice model, the powdered form offered full protection against the polio virus.\nThe study\u2019s first author Woo-Jin Shin said that many academics often neglect the importance of stabilization, but regardless of how effective a vaccine or drug is, if it is unstable to be transported, it doesn\u2019t do much good to anyone.\nThe study is detailed in the recent issue of the journal mBio. Polio is one of the highly infectious diseases causing disability and lifelong paralysis, mostly in young children. It may be a fading memory in several places, but in countries where vaccination rate is extremely low, children are still at risk.\nStorage of the vaccine relies on keeping it cold but refrigeration may not be reliable or available in various developing countries. So the polio virus still has strongholds in Papua New Guinea, Pakistan, Nigeria, and Syria.\nIn the US, the polio epidemic peaked during 1950s. With mass immunization, reported cases of polio reduced from 58,000 to 5,600 in 1957, and no cases of polio have been generated in the country since 1979.\nThe freeze-drying process to remove moisture have been widely used to make temperature-stable vaccines for many diseases including typhoid, measles, and meningococcal disease. However, scientists were unable to create polio vaccine that retain its potency through freeze-drying and rehydration.\nIn the new study, the scientists used two lab techniques \u2013 liquid chromatography and high-throughput screening. These methods enabled them to evaluate large amount of ingredients and formulations to find the one that works. The moisture content of the winning formulation was just 0.77% which could eliminate the need for cold storage and deliver a final blow to the disease.\nTagged Polio Vaccine\nPrevious Post: Researchers Found New Class of Carbides which could be the Hardest Material Ever\nNext Post: Engineers Creating Hal 9000-inspired AI System for Controlling Planetary Base Station",

I\u2019ve been watching him forever and he\u2019s so great. Such a great actor, so I kind of geeked out over that.\nSo even though Kim Dickens is no longer on Fear The Walking Dead, she is working on some pretty awesome projects.\n\u201cThings are moving right along.\u201d She added.\nAlycia shared a story about geeking out at Comic Con. She says Game of Thrones actor Alfie Allen was standing next to her in line for a bagel, and all she could mutter was \u201cFood\u2019s Good.\u201d\nDanay Garcia\u2019s story was also at Comic Con and thought the Game of Thrones cast was so well dressed.\nI was at the green room at Comic Con with Fear The Walking Dead, Walking Dead, and Game of Thrones together there. Usually we look like crap but at Comic Con we kind of dressed up. But compared to the Game of Thrones people. They come from far away.\nColman Domingo says,\n\u201cI geeked out when I met Mel Brooks. My other job is a playwright and he came and saw a play of mine in new york. and after the show hes in the lobby and I\u2019m like *mumbling*. And he\u2019s like \u201cWonderful play\u201d.\nOn Strand\u2019s relationship with Alycia and if Strand will stay with the crew:\nI think victor is very complicated, but I think that because they have such history. There\u2019s so much history between Alycia and Strand. We\u2019ve watched their evolution, seen their loss. I think they\u2019re bonded for life. I think the show does raise the question what is family. We become blood relatives. I say he\u2019ll stick around. We\u2019ll see what the writers say.\nWhy did he burn Abigail to the ground when he loves it so much?\nI was bored. I think Victor realized after the scene with the tuxedo jacket and champagne that he had to let go of the trappings of before, so he could move forward. So he walked off with a new horrible outfit that was not Ralph Lauren, but he realized that what he had to do.\nKim Dickens shared that she and Andrew Lincoln once had a conversation about colliding on the show, but he didn\u2019t know she was leaving Fear at the time.\nLast time I saw Andy, he was like \u201cEveryone\u2019s excited, they think we\u2019re gonna meet when we crossover. And I was like yeah. We\u2019re not.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t tell him in the moment\u201d she said.\nOn if Kim keeps watching the show since she\u2019s left,\nI watched some of them. Yeah, I\u2019m so proud. That\u2019s why I wanted to watch it, because I love the show. I love my cast mates. I was super proud of Colman for directing. I thought it was an incredible episode. It\u2019s still in my heart.\nShe said she loved the way her final scenes were shot in slow motion, saying that the final product was so powerful.\nOn if Madison is actually dead,\nI have no idea. I\u2019m definitely working on other things, and I think that part of this genre. That you lose characters unexpectedly sometimes. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s how it works. I don\u2019t think they do come back.\nAlthough, she does have doubts if Madison would\u2019ve let her babies go like that.\n\u201cI\u2019m pretty sure Madison would\u2019ve shimmied up that wall, but\u2026\u201d\nShe mentioned her Showtime Pilot, Queen Fur, which she just filmed as well. She mentioned that she plays a beauty queen, and has another daughter\nAlycia Debnam-Carey was asked about the fandom loving her so much. She thanked fans,\nThe outpouring of love is extraordinary, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s something you can get used to. It makes me emotional, so when I do things like this, I really give apiece of my heart to it, because it means to much to everyone. It\u2019s overwhelming, extraordinary, and humbling. I\u2019m forever grateful for it. Everyone\u2019s been so beautiful and lovely.\nThe four ended by giving future actors some advice which included listening, contributing and being kind.\nAustin Amelio\u2019s Dwight Returns in These Firs...\nAustin Amelio Teases His Cross Over to \u2018Fear...\n\u2018The Walking Dead\u2019 Star Joins \u2018F...\nSeason 5 of \u2018Fear the Walking Dead\u2019 Be...\nTags :Alycia Debnam-CareyColman DomingoDanay GarciaFear The Walking Deadkim dickens\nWalker Stalker Con Atlanta: Melissa Hutchison and Nicki Rapp Talk The Walking Dead Video Game",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Building a more effective practice plan\nDo you really know who\u2019s coaching your child? \u2192\nI love questions. You should too.\nLast night I was working with a fastpitch pitcher named Kylie that my old job would have classified as a \u201cboomerang.\u201d I had given her lessons for a few months, then she ended up on one of those teams run through a facility that includes the lessons in the package.\nAfter being dissatisfied with her progress as a pitcher over there, she recently returned to me as a student. (Most of that description has nothing to do with the story, but I just love the term boomerang.)\nAnyway, at one point her dad, who was catching for her, told her to ask me the question she had. It turned out to be a really good one. What I liked about it in particular was it showed a desire to understand and get better at a deeper level than \u201cbecause I say so.\u201d\nI love getting questions like that. Actually, I love getting any questions from students, or players on a team, because it shows they\u2019re engaged. Yet I think often times many athletes, girls in particular, are reluctant to ask questions \u2013 even when they really want to know the answer.\nI\u2019m not sure why this happens, but I can speculate. I think one answer is that they might be concerned that the coach/instructor/other authority figure will feel like his/her position of authority is being challenged. Or maybe the athlete asked a question once and got reprimanded for it. Or maybe the athlete thinks somehow she should already know the answer and doesn\u2019t want to feel stupid for asking. I\u2019m sure there are other reasons as well.\nIn some cases, those fears may be true. Some coaches really might not like questions because they\u2019re not secure in their own knowledge and don\u2019t want to be trapped, or might be one of those \u201ccommand and conquer\u201d types who thinks communication should only flow one way. They\u2019re certainly out there.\nBut athletes should never feel intimidated about asking questions. This is how we learn. How many great discoveries in the world started with, \u201cI wonder why\u2026\u201d or \u201cDid anyone ever consider\u2026?\u201d\nAlthough you do have to be careful around \u201cI wonder what would happen if\u2026?\u201d Often not much good comes out of that question, especially if it\u2019s followed by \u201cHere, hold my beer.\u201d\nFrom my point of view, though, questions are great. Again, they show the athlete is engaged in learning. I\u2019ve always said that the first requirement for improvement is a willingness to change. Athletes like Kylie who ask questions absolutely embody that philosophy.\nShe heard what I was instructing, and knew she wasn\u2019t quite doing it. She could feel it. But she didn\u2019t quite know how to get where I wanted her to go. So instead of just nodding along and struggling, she asked a question that led to a more in-depth explanation. She tried it, and she got it.\nShe also asked one of the toughest things I think young athletes can ask: She had gone to a pitching clinic somewhere and they told her about keeping her weight back as she drove out; she wanted to know if that was right, and if so how do you do that if you\u2019re trying to go forward.\nThat led to an explanation from me about how it\u2019s like riding a skateboard on one leg, then putting your other leg down in front. Yes, you\u2019re moving forward, but you want your entire body to be moving forward at once rather than a piece at a time. If you do that, you can drive into your front leg and get more whip rather than landing down, on top of your front leg and having everything come to a dead stop before you throw.\nShe got it, and was immediately able to improve her leg drive. Not to mention feel when her weight wasn\u2019t quite where it needed to be. Either way, she now has the tools she needs to improve. And hopefully she\u2019s a little more confident about asking me other questions in the future.\nI\u2019m definitely a fan of the Socratic method of teaching, where questions lead to dialog and critical thinking, rather than the \u201copen the top of your head, I will pour in the knowledge, and then we\u2019ll be done\u201d method some coaches seem to favor. The more players understand why they\u2019re doing what they\u2019re doing, the more likely they will be to do it with passion.\nIt all starts with those questions. Not just from the coaches to players, but players to coaches. Incidentally, if you ask a coach why you should do something in terms of mechanics and he/she doesn\u2019t have an answer, you might want to think twice about doing it. The coach could just be repeating something he/she heard somewhere once, and it may not be what you need to take you where you want to go.\nIf you\u2019re a player, especially a young one, I know it can be intimidating to ask questions. But get over it and ask anyway. It will help the coach know how to make the information more understandable to you.\nIf you\u2019re a coach, embrace questions. They show passion and involvement, that so-called \u201cspark\u201d it takes to achieve at a higher level. You want to encourage that behavior as much as you can, because a team full of inquisitive, engaged players are going to win a lot more games than a bunch of disinterested robots.\nThe only caveat with me is be careful when you ask me a question. You may end up hearing more than you ever wanted to know \u2013 especially if you\u2019re the last lesson of the night. I love talking softball!\nPosted on August 18, 2017, in Coaching, General Thoughts, Instruction, Pitching. Bookmark the permalink.\tLeave a comment.",

        "title": "Can California Survive a Middle-Class Exodus? - Foundation for Economic Education",
        "raw_content": "Can California Survive a Middle-Class Exodus?\nOne consequences of California\u2019s anti-market ideology is that poor people are falling further and further behind.\nImage courtesy of Jeff Turner on Flickr, https://www.flickr.com/photos/respres/2544979655\nPolicy California States Government Spending Poverty Polarization\nIn 2016, here\u2019s some of what I wrote about the economic outlook in Illinois.\nThere\u2019s a somewhat famous quote from Adam Smith (\u201cthere is a great deal of ruin in a nation\u201d) about the ability of a country to survive and withstand lots of bad public policy. I\u2019ve tried to get across the same point by explaining that you don\u2019t need perfect policy, or even good policy. A nation can enjoy a bit of growth so long as policy is merely adequate. Just give the private sector some \u201cbreathing room,\u201d I\u2019ve argued.\nI subsequently pointed out that politicians in Illinois were doing their best to suffocate the private sector, and also warned that a tax hike would push the state even closer to a day of reckoning.\nLet\u2019s apply this same analysis to California.\nSo here are some excerpts from a column I wrote about the Golden State in 2016.\nSomething doesn\u2019t add up. People like me have been explaining that California is an example of policies to avoid. Depending on my mood, I\u2019ll refer to the state as the France, Italy, or Greece of the United States. But folks on the left are making the opposite argument. \u2026 statists\u2026do have a semi-accurate point. There are some statistics showing that California has out-performed many other states over the past couple of years. \u2026 California may have enjoyed some decent growth in recent years as it got a bit of a bounce from its deep recession, but it appears that the benefits of that growth have mostly gone to the Hollywood crowd and the Silicon Valley folks. I guess this is the left-wing version of \u201ctrickle down\u201d economics.\nSo what\u2019s happened in California since I wrote that article?\nWell, lots of California-type policies.\nHuge cost overruns on a boondoggle train project that unfortunately is being partially subsidized by Uncle Sam (i.e., the rest of us).\nFlirtation with a single-payer healthcare plan that would be such a fiscal disaster that even Vermont deep-sixed the idea.\nLegalizing marijuana but then imposing such onerous taxes that consumers decide that it's smarter to stick with the black market.\nAnd where does that leave the state? Is California heading in the wrong direction faster or slower than Illinois?\nVictor Davis Hanson\u2019s column in Investor\u2019s Business Daily has a grim assessment. He explains that California residents pay a lot for lousy government.\nSome 62% of state roads have been rated poor or mediocre. There were more predictions of huge cost overruns and yearly losses on high-speed rail \u2014 before the first mile of track has been laid. One-third of Bay Area residents were polled as hoping to leave the area soon. Such pessimism is daily fare, and for good reason. The basket of California state taxes \u2014 sales, income, and gasoline \u2014 rates among the highest in the U.S. Yet California roads and K-12 education rank near the bottom. \u2026One in three American welfare recipients resides in California. Almost a quarter of the state population lives below or near the poverty line. Yet the state\u2019s gas and electricity prices are among the nation\u2019s highest. One in four state residents was not born in the U.S. Current state-funded pension programs are not sustainable. California depends on a tiny elite class for about half of its income tax revenue. Yet many of these wealthy taxpayers are fleeing the 40-million-person state, angry over paying 12% of their income for lousy public services.\nIn effect, statist policies have created two states, one for the rich and the other for the poor.\n\u2026two antithetical Californias. One is an elite, out-of-touch caste along the fashionable Pacific Ocean corridor that runs the state and has the money to escape the real-life consequences of its own unworkable agendas. The other is a huge underclass in central, rural and foothill California that cannot flee to the coast and suffers the bulk of the fallout from Byzantine state regulations, poor schools, and the failure to assimilate recent immigrants from some of the poorest areas in the world. The result is Connecticut and Alabama combined in one state.\nJonah Goldberg is not quite as pessimistic. He opines that the state has certain natural advantages that help it survive bad policy.\nCalifornia attracts an enormous number of rich people who think it\u2019s worth the high taxes, awful traffic, and even the threat of tectonic annihilation to live there \u2014 for reasons that literally have nothing to do with the state\u2019s liberal policies. Indeed, most of the Californians I know live there despite those policies, not because of them. No offense to South Dakota, but if it adopted the California model of heavy regulation, high taxes, and politically correct social engineering, there\u2019d be a caravan of refugees heading to states such as Wyoming and Minnesota. \u2026Wealthy liberal Californians can be quite smug about how they can afford their strict land-use policies, draconian environmental regulations, and high taxes. And wealthy Californians can afford them \u2014 but poor Californians are paying the price.\nRegarding the state\u2019s outlook, I\u2019m probably in the middle. Goldberg is right that California is a wonderful place to live, at least if you have plenty of money. But Hanson is right about the deteriorating quality of life for the non-rich.\nWhich may explain why a lot of ordinary people are packing up and leaving.\nA columnist from the northern part of the state writes about the exodus of the middle class.\nThe number of people packing up and moving out of the Bay Area just hit its highest level in more than a decade. \u2026Operators of a San Jose U-Haul business say one of their biggest problems is getting its rental moving vans back because so many are on a one-way ticket out of town. \u2026Nationwide, the cities with the highest inflows, according to Redfin are Phoenix, Las Vegas, Atlanta, and Nashville.\nAnd a columnist from the southern part of the state also is concerned about the middle-class exodus.\nAll around you, young and old alike are saying goodbye to California. \u20262016 census figures showed an uptick in the number of people who fled\u2026the state altogether. \u2026Las Vegas is one of the most popular destinations for those who leave California. It\u2019s close, it\u2019s a job center, and the cost of living is much cheaper, with plenty of brand-new houses going for between $200,000 and $300,000. \u2026\u201dThere\u2019s no corporate income tax, no personal income tax\u2026and the regulatory environment is much easier to work with,\u201d said Peterson. \u2026Nevada\u2019s gain, our loss.\nWhat could immediately cripple state finances, though, is out-migration by the state\u2019s sliver of rich taxpayers. Especially now that there\u2019s a limit on how much the federal tax system subsidizes California\u2019s profligacy.\nHere are some worrisome numbers, as reported by the Sacramento Bee.\nWill high taxes lead the state\u2019s wealthiest residents to flee the Golden State for the comparable tax havens of Florida, Nevada, and Texas? Republicans reliably raise that alarm when Democrats advocate for tax increases, like the 2012 and 2016 ballot initiatives that levied a new income tax on very high-earning residents. But now, with the federal tax bill cutting off deductions that benefited well-off Californians, the state\u2019s Democrats suddenly are singing the GOP song about a potential millionaire exodus. \u2026Democratic state lawmakers are worried because California relies so heavily on the income taxes it collects from high earners to fund government services. The state\u2019s wealthiest 1 percent, for instance, pay 48 percent of its income tax, and the departure of just a few families could lead to a noticeable hit to state general fund revenue. \u2026Among high-income brackets, about 38 percent of Californians who earn more than $877,560 \u2013 the top 1 percent \u2013 would see a tax hike. About 25 percent of Californians earning between $130,820 and $304,630, also would see a tax increase\u2026 \u201cThe new tax law is kind of like icing on the cake for some who were thinking about moving out of the state,\u201d said Fiona Ma, a Democrat on the tax-collecting Board of Equalization who is running for state treasurer. \u2026Joseph Vranich, who leads an Orange County business that advises people on where to locate their businesses, called the tax law \u201cone more nail in the coffin\u201d that would cause small- and middle-size entrepreneurs to leave California.\nPoliticians and tax collectors get resentful when the sheep move away so they no longer can be fleeced.\nThis powerful video from Reason should be widely shared. Thankfully it has a (mostly) happy ending.\nOne of the reasons the state has awful tax policy is that interest groups have a stranglehold on the political system. And that leads to ever-higher levels of spending.\nWriting for Forbes, for example, Josh Archambault examines the surge of Medicaid spending in the state.\nOver the past ten years, Medicaid spending in California has almost tripled, growing from $37 billion per year to a whopping $103 billion per year \u2014 including both state and federal funding. And things have only accelerated since the state expanded Medicaid to a new group of able-bodied adults. \u2026nearly 4 million able-bodied adults are now collecting Medicaid, which was once considered a last-resort safety net for poor children, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. \u2026California initially predicted that its ObamaCare expansion would cost roughly $11.6 billion in the first three fiscal years of the program. The actual cost during that time? An astounding $43.7 billion. \u2026Though California represents only 12 percent of the total U.S. population, it receives more than 30 percent of all Medicaid expansion spending.\nAnd the Orange County Register recently opined about the ever-escalating expenses for a gilded class of state bureaucrats.\nCalifornia\u2019s annual state payroll grew by 6 percent in 2017, an increase of $1 billion and twice the rate of growth of the previous year. \u2026Employee compensation is one of the largest components of the General Fund budget. In 2015-16, salaries and benefits accounted for about 12 percent of expenditures from the General Fund, a total of over $13 billion. \u2026pay increases drive up pension costs. \u2026The administration estimated that the annual cost to the state for the pay raises would be $2 billion by 2020-21, but the LAO said that didn\u2019t take into account the higher overtime costs that would result from higher base pay, or the extra pension costs from that overtime. \u2026if an economic downturn caused state revenues to decline, taxpayers would still have to pay the high and rising salaries for the full length of the contract.\nThe last sentence is key. I\u2019ve previously pointed out that California has a very unstable boom-bust fiscal cycle. The state looks like it\u2019s in good shape right now, but it\u2019s going to blow up when the next recession hits.\nLet\u2019s close by acknowledging that poor residents also pay a harsh price.\nKerry Jackson\u2019s article in National Review is rather depressing.\nCalifornia \u2014 not Mississippi, New Mexico, or West Virginia \u2014 has the highest poverty rate in the United States. According to the Census Bureau\u2019s Supplemental Poverty Measure \u2014 which accounts for the cost of housing, food, utilities, and clothing, and which includes non-cash government assistance as a form of income \u2014 nearly one out of four Californians is poor. \u2026the question arises as to why California has so many poor people\u2026 It\u2019s not as if California policymakers have neglected to wage war on poverty. Sacramento and local governments have spent massive amounts in the cause, for decades now. Myriad state and municipal benefit programs overlap with one another; in some cases, individuals with incomes 200 percent above the poverty line receive benefits, according to the California Policy Center. California state and local governments spent nearly $958 billion from 1992 through 2015 on public welfare programs.\nThat\u2019s probably a partial answer to the question. There\u2019s a lot of poverty in the state because politicians subsidize idleness. In effect, poor people get trapped.\nThe author agrees.\n\u2026welfare reform passed California by, leaving a dependency trap in place. Immigrants are falling into it: Fifty-five percent of immigrant families in the state get some kind of means-tested benefits\u2026 Self-interest in the social-services community may be at work here. If California\u2019s poverty rate should ever be substantially reduced by getting the typical welfare client back into the work force, many bureaucrats could lose their jobs. \u2026With 883,000 full-time-equivalent state and local employees in 2014, according to Governing, California has an enormous bureaucracy \u2014 a unionized, public-sector work force that exercises tremendous power through voting and lobbying. Many work in social services. \u2026With a permanent majority in the state senate and the assembly, a prolonged dominance in the executive branch, and a weak opposition, California Democrats have long been free to indulge blue-state ideology.\nAnd one consequence of California\u2019s anti-market ideology is that poor people are falling further and further behind.\nP.S. If Golden State leftists really do convince their neighbors to secede, I suspect the country would benefit and the state would suffer.\nP.P.S. And if California actually chooses to move forward with secession, the good news is that we already have a template (albeit satirical) for a national divorce in the United States.\nP.P.P.S. Closing with some California-specific humor, this Chuck Asay cartoon speculates on how future archaeologists will view the state. This Michael Ramirez cartoon looks at the impact of the state\u2019s class-warfare tax policy. And this joke about Texas, California, and a coyote is among my most-viewed blog posts.",

        "raw_content": "President Trump criticized the leader of the nation\u2019s largest union federation on Monday, escalating the feud between the administration and organized labor amid crucial negotiations for both sides over the North American Free Trade Agreement.\nRichard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO, had on Sunday disputed the White House\u2019s strategy for renegotiating the NAFTA trade pact and argued that Trump had \u201cdone more to hurt workers than to help\u201d them since taking office.\nThose comments elicited a sharp counterattack from Trump, who blasted Trumka as an ineffectual leader just as union members across the country prepared for Labor Day celebrations.\n\u201cTrumka, the head of the AFL-CIO, represented his union poorly on television this weekend,\u201d Trump said in a tweet. \u201cSome of the things he said were so against the working men and women of our country, and the success of the U.S. itself, that it is easy to see why unions are doing so poorly.\u201d\nThe rift comes after the administration submitted a letter late last week formally notifying Congress that it would enter a trade agreement with Mexico, adding that Canada could be included at a later date \u201cif it is willing.\u201d The letter starts a 90-day process for reworking the trade deal ahead of a transition of presidential power in Mexico, as Trump seeks to fulfill a key campaign promise to revamp NAFTA ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.\nThe deal brokered between Mexico and the U.S. has many provisions that have earned the support of organized labor, including more robust rules for automobile production.\nSpeaking on Fox News on Friday, Trumka acknowledged the initial agreement included some improvements over the status quo but also argued \u201cit\u2019s pretty hard to see how that would work without having Canada in the deal.\u201d Talks between Canadian and American officials fell apart late last week amid ongoing disagreements over dairy rules and the trade-dispute resolution process.\nTrumka also criticized Trump over the Republican tax law passed last fall, arguing it would increase the outsourcing of American jobs. In addition, the union leader criticized the president for failing to defend an Obama-era rule mandating additional overtime pay and for failing to pass legislation to improve U.S. infrastructure, among other issues.\n\u201cUnfortunately, to date, the things he has done to hurt workers outpace what he has done to help workers,\u201d Trumka said. \u201cWe\u2019ll keep trying to find areas where we can work with him\u201d\nUnion membership nationwide has fallen markedly from the 1970s, with the percentage of American workers in a union dropping from about 25 percent in the 1970s to less than 11 percent in 2017, according to survey data. But among the general public, popular support for unions has risen steadily, to a 61 percent approval rating, a high point in more than a decade, according to Gallup polling.",

        "raw_content": "Where Are They Now: The Man Who Famously Took Down A Burning Man Ticket Scalper\nInterview by Ariana Assaf\nNot all heroes wear capes, and rarely have I seen that statement ring so true as when I talked to Ben Feibleman. Burners may know him as the man who famously took down a ticket scalper two years ago when he attempted to sell a Burning Man ticket for a whopping $950. In light of tickets selling out phenomenally fast Wednesday\u2014various media outlets put the range somewhere between 30 minutes and an hour\u2014we pursued talking to Ben about what motivated him ensure justice was served and ultimately, to get to Burning Man.\nA man with a self-professed knack for shenanigans, Ben had recently been fired from a tech startup in Palo Alto when the scalping situation went down. Now a journalism graduate student at Columbia (where he also did his undergrad), Ben says he\u2019s \u201ca storyteller by nature, I just always end up getting myself in to trouble.\u201d Though he hadn\u2019t yet been to Burning Man at the time, \u201cwe watched that video with the Go Pro on the hula hoop and we were like, this shit is crazy. We\u2019re going.\u201d\n\u201cI had a torrid affair with a Japanese lesbian ninja. She could kick me in the face from a standing position.\u201d\nThe only problem was that tickets were sold out. \u201cThat\u2019s the thing about Burning Man,\u201d Ben said speaking to the festival\u2019s popularity. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter if you change your mind last minute, you can sell that shit at a Walmart at 4am in Reno.\u201d But one scalper took the demand for tickets too far, marking up the price to double face value. Ben wasn\u2019t having it.\n\u201cHe was a first time burner with no sense of community,\u201d he said. Through a series of savvy moves documented by Business Insider, Ben was able to get enough information about the ticket and it\u2019s marked up price that would have rendered it void (and thus worthless) had he made good on his threat to pass the information on to the Burning Man office. He ended up posting the scalper\u2019s name and ticket number on Craigslist in order to warn others against buying from him, noting that the Burning Man office would void the ticket, as they do all tickets that are resold for unfairly high prices. Left with no other option, the scalper sold Ben the ticket for $450.\nBen Feibleman, Burner and Superhero\nThough Ben won the day, he noted that the way his situation ended up turning out was never guaranteed. \u201cThis was a guy I was feeling out before I threw down the gauntlet\u2026I could have had a fight on my hands\u201d he said. \u201cI do remember thinking he might try to pull something on me.\u201d Whether that be attempting to turn the tables and contacting the Burning Man office or do him bodily harm, he couldn\u2019t be certain, but \u201cI don\u2019t think this was a die-hard scalper.\u201d And though the scalper was certainly upset, it was clear he wasn\u2019t looking for serious trouble.\n\u201cAt the end of the day, you shouldn\u2019t encourage scalpers by letting them win, but if you told me that you could get me back the money for the ticket and travel expenses and all I had to do was wipe the experience from my memory, I would tell you to fuck right off.\u201d\nBen became a \u201cmicrocelebrity\u201d at Burning Man that year, receiving praise from fellow burners after the Business Insider article was published, and even meeting a venture capitalist who offered to fund his startup. But it wasn\u2019t all hoorays and high-fives; some extended members of Ben\u2019s family were actually upset to have their name in the public domain. \u201cI had cousins, aunts, and uncles sending me hate mail over this article, saying I came off like a pompous asshole. Looking back in terms of talking about how the world should be a better place than this, I didn\u2019t know what I was talking about. I just knew that I was going dammit.\u201d\nBen in his Burning Man uniform, pre-Columbia interview.\nAnd therein lies his true heroic nature. Like all of us, Ben isn\u2019t perfect. Sometimes we just want what we want, and it just so happens that in this situation Ben got what he wanted while simultaneously being able to make the world a better place. Even though he says he may have never really come back from his first Burning Man, his rabble-rouser nature is certainly alive and well. He left the festival halfway through the next year, still covered in dirt, to head back to San Francisco for a meeting with admissions officers from Columbia. \u201cI basically showed up in my Burning Man uniform. One of them was definitely trying to figure me out and I was like dude, I spent the last 24 hours tripping on LSD and chasing around a sexy nurse. I had other things to do.\u201d\n\u201cI had to scheme my way in that year as well,\u201d Ben explained. \u201cI bought a wristband from a local Native American on the reservation. It worked until someone higher up stopped me and realized I didn\u2019t live on the reservation. He said, \u2018You\u2019re lucky I\u2019m in a good mood.\u2019\u201d\nBen is currently doing a combination of travelling, studying, drugs, writing, and looking for a Burning Man ticket. If you have one, let him know. He\u2019ll pay you a fair price.\nTags: Burning Man Interviews Stories\nOh Ben, you rabble rouser you!!! No mention of other article-worthy Burner events and shenanigans you oversaw or indeed mastercrafted, but I do understand that this is simply a blog, not an opus.

        "title": "Historical Details on Freud and the Moral Order Foundations of Societies",
        "raw_content": "10.4236/ahs.2014.35021\nHistorical Details on Freud and the Moral Order Foundations of Societies\nGabriel Mith\u00e1 Ribeiro, Luca Bussotti\nCentro de Estudos Internacionais, Lisbon University Institute (ISCTE-IUL), Lisbon, Portugal\nEmail: Luca.Bussotti@iscte.pt\nReceived 8 October 2014; revised 12 November 2014; accepted 21 November 2014\nFreud considered that, in the beginning, the idea of society resulted from the moral order imposed by a totemic ideal generated by feelings of guilt and remorse motivated by the parricide of the founder of the community. Since the substance of the process has persisted in reinventions of so- cial identities throughout history, from this assumption the article interprets the foundations of the moral order in postcolonial African societies, whose origins date back to pre-colonial African heritage, European colonial legacies and reactive historical phenomena of independence. While Freud\u2019s ideal type focuses on the sense of collective guilt, the authors\u2019 empirical approach high- lights the historical relevance of the ideal of victimization in the twentieth century.\nAfrica, Colonization, Independence, Freud, National Identity, Victimization\nAs the first edition of Sigmund Freud\u2019s book Totem and Taboo (2012/1912-1913) is celebrating a century since its publication, the aim of this article is to test his speculative approach to capture the foundations of the moral order in postcolonial African societies, particularly the significance of European colonization, which ended be- tween the late 1950s and early 1990s1. According to Freud, the two institutions that founded primordial societies\u2019 moral order, reversed in concepts, totem and taboo, have both derived from original representations of the Oe- dipus complex or its equivalent2. They are the result of a collective sense of guilt and remorse for the death of the founding father, which generates the totemic ideal. This corresponds to the original sense of belonging to a given community based on interdictions: Not killing the totemic animal from which the supreme power of the ancestral father emanates and not committing incest3, in other words respect the ideal of exogamy that ensures the community\u2019s cohesion and survival. Relationships established outside the clan have generated kinship ties based on rights and duties in increasingly wider territorial spaces, ever beyond the totem or clan of origin. Asso- ciated to it the economic and social reproduction systems created ensured better survival of ancient communities in the face of adverse ecological conditions ( Feliciano, 1998; Granjo, 2005; see Freud, 2012: p. 193 )4.\nFreud\u2019s speculative approach is based on another central theory: communities\u2019 symbolic relationship with their ancestral father is always ambivalent, just as a society\u2019s relationship with his tutelary powers is always ambivalent by extension. The author considers that, in origin, parricide committed by the sons allowed them to free themselves of a powerful, violent, hegemonic guardianship5. But this necessarily implies strengthening the po- tential for conflict between equals, a persistent latent threat of destruction of the community. Thus, the prohibi- tion of incest also served to manage the new configuration taking into account that earlier women were all re- served for the founding father6. The original solution for managing the sharing of power between equals lay in the totem worship (represented by an animal, the plant world, a force of nature or an inanimate or artificial ob- ject) that symbolized the return of the progenitor. Paradoxically it is the representation of the father who was murdered, a constant threat to the existence of the others while alive, that instituted the community spirit. There- fore, this spirit will always be marked by a large degree of ambivalence7.\nThe substance of these processes inherited from a very ancient ancestrality persists in the collective uncons- cious after the memories of the founding father\u2019s death have been lost with the passage of generations ( Freud, 2012; see Freud, 2002 ). Freud wrote: \u201cThis creative sense of guilt has not become extinct with us\u201d (Freud, 2012: p. 143) .\nDue to this timeless and necessarily speculative approach, Freud felt compelled to protect himself from this criticism (Freud, 2012: 99 et seq.) 8. A century later, however, it is precisely these characteristics that allow Freud\u2019s analytic proposal to help us capture the foundations of the moral order of societies and their consequences9.\n2. Freud and Postcolonial Africa\nMore precisely, what is under discussion here is not the moral order of societies itself. The analysis will be li- mited to the foundations of the moral order of societies that operate in a continuum between the extreme of the self-blame principle (Freud\u2019s theory) and the extreme of the victimization principle (discussed below). Both principles guide social thinking and attitudes that establish and explain the functioning of social identities. From the primordial idea of society (Freud, 2012) our approach assumes that, ranging in time, space and particularities, European domination in Africa also triggered enlargement of the reference territories of pre-colonial social iden- tities, which was progressively generating substantive reinventions in their characteristics. The most significant result of the subsequent African independences was the institution of new national territorial identities. This analysis therefore only addresses social identities dependent on the idea of a centralized national territorial state10. Freud\u2019s speculative approach will be used as an ideal type in the Weberian sense. It allows us to stream- line the real without preventing observation of the idiosyncrasies of each social or historical phenomenon em- pirically verifiable as we get closer to its particularities (Weber, 1997) . Given the heterogeneities of African na- tional territorial identities, the article will merely systematize their general trends.\nIt is also important to clarify that the effectiveness of our approach depends on articulation between Freud\u2019s ideal type and empirical evidence. This evidence is the result of a long series of field work and publications on social thinking and social representations conducted by the authors for about 15 years in Mozambique (1997 to 2013)11. This case study typifies an African national territorial identity established by pre-colonial, colonial and postcolonial inheritances and also allows quite consistent inferences (Bussotti, 2008; Ribeiro, 2000, 2002, 2008, 2012, 2013; see Almond & Verba, 1989; Bar-Tal, 2000; Berger & Luckmann, 1999; Bourdieu, 1994; Elias, 2006, 2008; Moscovici, 2000; Vala & Castro 2013) .\nEven so, our analytical perspective moves away from the thesis strongly implied in Freud\u2019s ideal type of fix- ing the existential sense of societies in their past. Our presupposition is that post-traditional societies turn to- wards a better future by reinventing their past and as a consequence these societies do not intend to return to the status quo ante. In addition, in the dynamics of contemporary national territorial identities in Africa or else- where, the idea of the founder can refer to the recent past, not necessarily being focused on the ancestral or sa- cred, and can also articulate different significant historical moments for each community, not depending on just one founding father as is typified by Freud for primordial communities.\nWe then make further remarks on Freud\u2019s theoretical assumptions. While he raises the question of victimiza- tion (parricide is a reactive act against the violent power of the founder), he does not consider the principle of victimization as a founding referent of a moral or social order genuinely new, even though always resulting from reworking what existed before. Freud\u2019s analytical logics work as if societies were incapable of substantive rein- ventions in their characteristics, by reinventing the sense of social identities that constitutes them. However, one hundred years later we are much more confident that historical times produce new social identities and perma- nently reinvent the meanings of those that resist over time (Am\u00e2ncio, 2006; Capozza & Brown, 2000; Chaiken & Eagly, 1993; Lima & Correia, 2013; Tajfel, 1981; Worchel et al., 1998) .\nThe analytical perspective in Totem and Taboo (1912-1913) is due to the historic and cultural context in which the theory was formed. It was before the revolutionary cycle triggered by the Russian Revolution (1917), and Freud (1856-1939) did not live to see the closure of the European colonial cycle, both of which had pro- found impacts. It may even be assumed that the twentieth century was a century of profound reinvention of so- cial identities founded on the principle of victimization. Hence, in addition to not taking account of the possibil- ity of rapid transformation of traditional identities (some quickly have lost the label of savage, semi-savage, primitive or ancestral), in its assumptions, Freud\u2019s ideal type does not articulate a guilt complex with a corres- ponding victimization complex. He does not develop consistent theoretical support for victimization as a collec- tive phenomenon. Thus, victimization cannot really be regarded as a victimization complex concept, but as an ideal of victimization, a heuristic designation. For this reason we will limit ourselves to the common use of the idea of victimization.\nNevertheless, our approach complements the Freudian ideal type. As referents of the foundations of the moral order of societies, the self-blame principle and the victimization principle are mutually exclusive. If they can coexist, the social relevance of one of them implies the devaluation of the other. The twentieth century has shown that this relationship is dynamic over time and within each social fabric. The tendency for social systems\u2019 stability or instability depends of the interactions between them (regulated or convulsive), precisely because they do not have the same social value and functions (see Almond & Verba, 1989 ). While the collective sense of guilt is more durable over time and is also more suitable to ensure the sedimentation of social cohesion with regard to the relationship between the present and past of societies and within heterogeneous social fabric (regulated ten- dency). For its part, the collective sense of victimization is more cyclical and favorable to social change (con- vulsive tendency).\nSo, our remarks do not affect the essence of Freud\u2019s theory but rather introduce complementary contributions, given that the ideal of victimization is a no less important human creation deeply related to social identities of revolutionary and postcolonial societies12. However, as the case of postcolonial Africa shows, after decades of centrality for the ideals of victimization, social dynamics are increasingly manifesting symptoms of change in the foundations of the moral order of African national territorial identities. From observations on postcolonial phenomena (such as civil wars, crime or corruption) the common people's discourse tends to reveal the rework- ing of a sense of endogenous collective guilt, which also has effects on the reworking of social representations focused on the colonial past. The social evaluations of the latter were much more similar between common peo- ple and their tutelary elites (political, economic, academic or intellectual) at the time of their independence than today. Despite some ambiguities, people in the street tend to consider daily life more stable and predictable in the colonial past than today, either resulting from the tutelary order imposed by the European colonizer or the persisting regulatory power of the African traditional order. Thus, the growing trend towards the idea of collec- tive guilt with the advance of the postcolonial period cannot be dissociated from African ancestral totemic ma- trix traditions, as typified by Freud (2012) . These ancient traditions manifestly or latently affect people\u2019s daily lives, as even the most remote memories in the collective unconscious never fade (see Freud, 1997).\nWhile the relationship with the past is inevitable for the existence of national territorial identities, the empiri- cal evidence we have of Africa works in Freud\u2019s ambivalent sense: The greater the certainty of the physical im- possibility of the founding father\u2019s return more relevant its symbolic meanings become to the present. In Africa it has to do not only with the passage of time, but also with the rapid turnover of generations given the current demographic growth. From this presupposition the Totem and Taboo (1912-1913) ideal type infers that social identities are conditioned by pressure for the return to origins, an interpretation that Freud would confirm later in Beyond the Pleasure Principle (1920). The point is that the overall trend in historical processes of the twentieth century makes us balance Freud\u2019s perspective (focused on primordial societies) with a different presupposition adjusted to post-traditional or contemporary societies: the more societies are affiliated to the past, the more au- tonomous they are from it. Available evidence shows that there are no symptoms that postcolonial African so- cieties wish to return to a (pre-colonial or colonial) past, and their affiliation to the independence tends not to be questioned. By including elites and common people, this attitude crosses the social fabrics, which ensures the long-term viability of African national territorial identities despite the challenges they are facing. Therefore, what is at issue is the search by the people themselves of a logical relationship with their own historical destiny given that the meanings of their present and future depend on the meanings attributed to their past (see Moscovici, 2000; Vala & Castro 2013 ).\nOur analysis also highlights interactions between the elites and common people, taking into account that these interactions constitute the kernel of national territorial identities and typify the relations of power within each social fabric (see Am\u00e2ncio, 2006; Capozza & Brown, 2000; Tajfel, 1981; Worchel et al., 1998 ). As time passes, though interpretations of the European colonial legacy by Africans themselves has never ceased to be significant, it has been taking on paradoxical meanings in relation to its original postcolonial sense (Weber, 2005a) . At the beginning they were more homogeneously anti-colonial but then show dissonances within the national territorial identities. Firstly, between elites (mainly oriented by the victimization principle) and common people (which had been reinforcing the self-blame principle) and, secondly, between the discourses (the unfavorable extreme) and practices (the favorable extreme) when it comes to the European influence. This dissonance is very striking among the post-traditional elites that dominate African societies. It is precisely the elites, the minority by nature, who seek to preserve the original meaning of European colonization against the sense of change driven by the common people, the majority by nature. So, the social changes underway in Africa have a pretty consistent tel- luric background making their impacts predictable in the elites sooner or later.\nGiven that the sustainability and cohesion of national territorial identities depend on the foundations of their moral order and that these, for their part, depend on consensual interpretations of collective history, the evidence allows us to anticipate the need for a symbolic return to the past by African societies themselves, in order to overcome dissonances in their collective identities.\n3. Victimization and Its Meanings\nThe meanings of the referents underlying the foundations of the moral order of societies change according to ongoing social transformations. In the case of African national territorial identities, their genesis refers to 1) pre-colonial African ancestral inheritances, 2) the legacies of European colonial domination and 3) the heritage from reactive phenomena that claimed and achieved independence. These three relevant historical phenomena are organized in a complex configuration which makes them substantially different from each other but deeply interrelated. The European colonial heritage was transition point between before (pre-colonial) and after (inde- pendence), although in the first postcolonial times more for political reasons than social, historical or cultural reasons, the transition point focused on the independence processes themselves. But the situation is changing, due to permanent political, social, cultural or economic recomposition in the postcolonial period, as will be ex- plained later. Furthermore, social representations on the state are still constrained by the fact that African coun- tries are part of the latest generation of independences, which contributes to the symbolic relevance of the co- lonial heritage13.\nAccordingly, any structural dissonances within the African national territorial identities are related to the radi- cal affiliations or rejections of any of the three founder referents mentioned above, i.e. attitudes of denial of their innate ambivalences. Highly selective social evaluations that overvalue the positive or negative regarding any of the historical referents in question end up generating repressed feelings that foster symptoms14 of collective an- xiety. This can sometimes culminate in cyclic impulsive discharges that, in ordinary language, we tend to refer to as social and political instability in Africa (see Chabal & Daloz, 1999; Cusson, 2011; Inglehart, 2003; Sen, 2007 )15.\nWhat stands out here is the overwhelmingly dominant principles that guided African independences and are still salient in the attitudes of elites that govern Africa\u2019s societies. These principles are organized around the re- jection of self-blame feelings in relation to their countries\u2019 history (Ribeiro, 2002) . For this reason, the founda- tions of the moral order in postcolonial African societies refer incisively to the ideal of victimization that re- mains strongly associated with interpretations of recent (colonization) or remote (slavery) historical phenomena (D\u2019Souza, 1996) . Thus, feelings of responsibility for what has been dysfunctional in postcolonial African socie- ties are still heavily associated by tutelary powers to what is exogenous to African national territorial formations. When the focus is on the past or on the present, the feelings of guilt tend to materialize in exogenous objects: European colonization, the West, the Europeans, the rich countries. This means that the guilt principle has re- mained focused on the ancient colonial father. In general, for African elites, even after his death, he is still treated much more as a guilty father than as a founding father. The idea of collective guilt seems to have been expelled from the founder kernel of the African national territorial identities instituted by Africa\u2019s elites. This still predominant attitude among African elites has introduced a different logic in the core of Freud\u2019s own col- lective guilt theory.\nFor our part, we lean toward the hypothesis that a given moral order can be founded by the ideal of victimiza- tion, without the centrality of guilt. However, even considering the importance of victimization for a given pur- pose, like Freud we assume that the foundations of societies\u2019 moral order implies a progressive return of the re- levance of sharing a sense of collective self-blame and consequent sense of remorse with endogenous roots since, over time, the sustainability of societies\u2019 cohesion will depend on them. The guilt complex may once again be called into question when social pressure for change grows. Contrary to what it might seem, this is not the situa- tion of today\u2019s African societies, but a demand for foundations of moral order different from those guided by the ideal of victimization that have continuously dominated those societies since independence (Bussotti, 2008; Ribeiro, 2000, 2002, 2008, 2012, 2013) .\nThe increasing challenge that African societies therefore face is the transition from the central nucleus of the foundations of the moral order of their traditional social systems\u2015in which the sense of guilt for the founding father\u2019s death was expiated by the institution of traditional magic-religious cults, that somehow still persist\u2015to another central nucleus of the foundations of the moral order of these same societies corresponding to post-tra- ditional social systems in which Africans focus increasingly implying a reinvented sense of collective self-blame, after a phase of relevance of the ideal of victimization. In this ongoing transition process, the European colonial heritage corresponds precisely to the most remote and significant referent that led to the national territorial iden- tities as established in the postcolonial period, which became decisive. But this does not mean that the symbolic relevance of such a referent can be dissociated from the reactive processes that led to African independence. The question has to do with defining the role of what is essential and accessory at the present time, taking account of societies\u2019 representations of the meanings of their own existence.\nIn Almond and Verba\u2019s (1989) political culture concept the situation is typified as civic culture. This means peoples\u2019 ability, through their political systems, to establish balanced compromises between the tradition and modernity, in that the latter does not break away from the former. Civic culture implies that modernity incorpo- rates legacies into new contexts. The demand for selective commitments depending on different historical lega- cies has been very salient for decades in the attitudes of the African elites. Here the endogenous African heritage is the favorable extreme and the European exogenous heritage the unfavorable extreme. However, these differ- ent historical heritages can hardly be separated in terms of valuation, because throughout history they have not replaced each other, but coexisted and reinvented each other in the extraordinary complexity of African societies (see Freud, 2002, 2003, 2008 ). If the rhetoric in question could be implemented, it would entail denial of struc- tural attributes of the African national territorial identities largely based on legacies from European colonization. Some significant examples are the sharing of official national languages that originally belonged to the Euro- pean settlers; sharing a sense of belonging to a national territory identified with the central power of the state established by European colonization; affiliation to a set of patterns of everyday life of colonial origin (religion, school, vocational training, economy, urbanization, etc.). This identity background that polarizes the affective-emo- tional charges from an endogenous cultural favorable to an exogenous unfavorable matrix, at an extreme would imply self-denial of post-traditional and postcolonial identities of the African peoples (see Chaiken & Eagly, 1993; Lima & Correia, 2013 ).\nThe incongruities between post-traditional African elites\u2019 discourses that have persisted since independence in the devaluation or rejection of contributions from European colonial cultural factors of which they consider themselves to be victims (the unfavorable manifest extreme), and their growing affiliation to them which mean strong affiliation to living standards introduced by colonization (the favorable latent extreme) reveal identity dissonances which expose the paradoxes in the sense of belonging to national African territorial formations (see Freud, 1997 ). Much more than discourses, it is practices that confirm the power of social domination. The iden- tity blockages therefore reside in the discourses not in the practices. This kind of dissonance constitutes a source of problems over time, as it weakens the legitimacy of social domination making it harder to regulate social sys- tems (Hirschman, 1970) .\nThe selective commitments of African elites to the history of Africa are also problematic because they gener- ate far more disruptive\u2015anti-colonial, anti-traditional, anti-modern or anti-Western\u2015than compromise attitudes. However, it is precisely the compromise attitudes that sustain and reinforce the collective identities of the peo- ples and their social and political regulatory systems, both in Freud\u2019s sense (2012) and that of Almond and Ver- ba (1989) .\nAlthough with a different historical background, the socially shared guilt complex with which European peo- ples organize their relationship with their colonial past in Africa has been quite salient. This attitude is substan- tively different from the ideal of victimization among African elites. We must add that guilt and victimization do not work, in social terms, as moral absolutes since they depend on cultural predispositions (D\u2019Souza, 1996; Louren\u00e7o, 2002) . Therefore, not only are the mere facts that determine the assigned meanings to the colonization by Europeans or Africans. Individuals and societies have always played an active role in the selection, interpre- tation and relevance associated with certain facts, while omitting or devaluing others. Whenever social thinking is concerned, facts only represent the raw material from which social representations are collectively formed during social interaction. It is social representations not the facts themselves that determine the sense of society and, therefore, the characteristics of social identities. Accurately what is at stake is not history itself, but social representations of the past (Moscovici, 2000; Vala & Castro, 2013) .\nTo be clear, under no circumstances would it be analytically reasonable to make evaluative judgments about the characteristics of social identities, as we have adopted both the attitude of ethical amorality of Freud\u2019s work and Weber\u2019s axiological neutrality (Dias & Magalh\u00e3es, 2000; Weber, 2005c) . Even so, according to Freud\u2019s ideal type, it is reasonable to conclude that management of the colonial past as a founding referent of societies\u2019 moral order tends to prove, at least to date, much more fruitful for post-imperial European societies than for postco- lonial African societies.\nBy highlighting the ideal of victimization, whose legitimacy is not disputed, when the African independence re-founded the societies this ensured the release of a powerful, violent father. This option has proved very effec- tive for the purpose of liberation. However, it has more to do with the ending of a historical time (colonization) than with the constructive opening of the next historical time (independence). It is clear in the period that fol- lowed the father\u2019s murder that the potential for sibling conflict grew in the social order grudgingly bequeathed by the dead father, whose spirit, due to the circumstances of his demise, will torment those who have memories of his person and the circumstances of his physical disappearance (Freud, 2012) 16. As it is not conceivable to assume that Africans are not emotionally attached to the European colonial legacy as an ambivalent founding moment of social identities that are meaningful to them today, the official interpretations of colonization by the African elites becomes problematic because it has meant the hyper-valuation of the disruptive or traumatic di- mension of European domination, an attitude that has worked as a strategy for legitimizing the postcolonial tu- telary powers. It also means the rejection or omission of the dimension of that historical legacy that allowed a new socially significant order17. Cross-referencing trends in elites\u2019 evaluations with evaluations of the remaining social fabric, there are plenty of symptoms of an unsuccessful psychical repression. It is therefore reasonable to infer that there is an imposition by African elites of a functional depressive deviation of collective memory on the colonial past (Dias & Magalh\u00e3es, 2000: 187 et seq.) .\nGiven that the foundations of societies\u2019 moral order are ambivalent (between devotion and repulsion, con- scious and unconscious) and, by extension, it is they who determine the interactions between the community and its tutelary powers, it is particularly evident in Africa that certain aspects of historical memory look-out for an opportunity of being activated (Freud, 2008: p. 26) 18.\n4. Telluric Power\nIn times in peoples\u2019 history in which the fruitful idea of endogenous guilt is lethargic as it has been banned from the tutelary spheres and replaced by the ideal of victimization, the sense of guilt never fades away. It resists in common sense thinking and in the collective unconscious. It may also be verifiable through the survival of the traditional in the post-traditional, as is the case of Africa. What is termed lethargy is no more than the ante- chamber of the gradual return of collective self-blame to the core of the foundations of the moral order of socie- ties, which means that the elites could be the last to be affected by this process, as the sense of guilt has a deep telluric nature that dates back to the most ancient traditions.\nTherefore, it is plausible to consider the existence of quite salient predispositions to throw the blame on others (the reverse of the psychoanalytical pathology of guilt) in a significant proportion of African elites, while in the remaining social fabrics symptoms which act as antidotes to this same predispositions are easily detected (Dias & Magalh\u00e3es, 2000) . From observations on postcolonial phenomena (e.g. civil wars, crime or corruption) the com- mon people tend to reveal the reworking of a sense of collective self-blame that affects the re-working of social representations focused on old colonist-colonized relations. These historical relationships are increasingly con- sidered from an ambivalence angle in a continuum that fluctuates between an unfavorable/negative extreme (symbolized, for example, by forced labor for Africans) and a favorable/positive extreme (symbolized by the recognition by common Africans of the transforming action of European domination that brought together colo- nizers and colonized in the European cultural or material civilization patterns).\nAt present, this ambivalence tends to decrease as we get closer of the discourses of tutelary powers. As men- tioned above, African elites tend to identify particularly with the Manichean ideal by emphasizing the victimiza- tion of Africans during European colonization. If the African elites\u2019 attitudes are legitimate, the question is to what extent this strategy will be sustainable as a source that legitimizes their ruling power. In addition to the clear dissonance between discourses and practices among elites themselves, African national territorial identities are confronted with other growing dissonances reflected in the different trends of dominators and dominated in the interpretation of common history (Bussotti, 2008; Ribeiro, 2000, 2002, 2008, 2012, 2013) .\nStill on the subject of ambivalent feelings about the colonial past on the part of the common people, it is worth mentioning the attributes attached to former European colonizers dating back to Africans\u2019 first contact with them, and preserved since then in words in African national languages (see Freud, 2002 ). An example is mulungo, a Changana, Ronga and Tsua word (African languages in southern Mozambique), which means white person (Lindgaard, 2009) 19. Although the underlying reasons are hard to determine accurately, the term mulungo originally had a favorable/positive charge (sacred power, wisdom, justice, good character, goodness) and unfa- vorable/negative charge (racial and ethnic discrimination against Africans). For these last reasons, the national struggle for independence against the mulungo power became legitimate. However, the dignity of independence (achieved in 1975 in Mozambique) did not erase from everyday life the ambivalence of the attitude object, pre- cisely because it did not erase the word mulungo and its deep roots in African identities that use it. The term serves today to designate not only old white European settlers but also their successors or descendants, in a pro- cess that went on relativizing skin color attribute, as mulungo was also extended to individuals belonging to the black elite (see Rex, 1987; Ribeiro, 2012 )20.\n5. Apollo Prophecy outside Africa\nHere we analyze the foundations of the affiliation of diaspora minorities to host societies. In this case, this has been heavily constrained by skin color. Nonetheless, racial relations and racism are not at issue since the article\u2019s analytical focus is the foundations of the moral order of social identities associated with the national ter- ritorial formation. Accordingly, the parricide of the primordial founder constitutes a key assumption in Freud\u2019s ideal type, which focuses on cultural dimension, i.e. he does not consider the racial question itself (see Bonilla-Silva, 2010; Cabecinhas, 2007; D\u2019Souza, 1996; Fredrickson, 2002; Memmi, 1993; Rex, 1987, 2007; Rex & Tomlinson, 1979; Rex, 1986; Ribeiro, 2012, 2013; Vala, Brito, & Lopes 1999; Wieviorka, 2002a, 2002b ).\nEven though there are several reasons for social integration in the national territorial identities of host socie- ties, including racial and ethnic attributes, the point in this analysis is that the Oedipal tradition never had signifi- cant expression among African identities from diaspora, which were regulated by a symbolic attachment to the African ancestral umbilical cord. There are no historical records of substantive disruptions at this level (see D\u2019Souza, 1996 ). Hence, when feelings of devaluation of these African diaspora minorities are manifested in host societies (whosesoever primary responsibility or irrespective of its salience), particularly in Europe and the Americas, the situation can be associated with the inability to symbolically kill their primordial father, despite and because of their black skin color21. From the perspective of identity theory of the Oedipus complex, this failed act makes it more difficult to overcome the victimization principle with the self-blame principle and there- fore also makes it harder for the minorities in question and the dominant racial or ethnic segment to share senses of belonging to a national territorial identity. Here lies one but not the only source of dissonance in the social identities of predominantly white societies of old settlers or slave traders.\nFor emotional reasons, the historical course until the second half of the twentieth century was an element that stood in the way of the relevance of the Oedipal tradition among the African identities from diaspora. However, something substantive changed with the end of the European colonial cycle and South African apartheid system. Both phenomena are likely to make way for another type of characteristic in the foundations of the moral order of the identities in question (Ribeiro, 2013) .\nFor historical reasons too the opposite trend has not been difficult to see since colonial times, and much more since independences. There has been clear and recurrent disaffiliation from Europeans and Europe by segments of the white and mestizo population who settled in diaspora. Their cutting of the umbilical cord was clearly manifested in a given historical cycle, precisely because they participated actively in independence processes. Although they were a small minorityin African host societies, these minorities committed the symbolic parricide of the European founder in exchange for an unequivocal affiliation to the postcolonial national territorial identities of African societies. In the early stage of African independences, the European motherland became the central target of their criticisms. These white and mestizo segments more easily rejected the diaspora attribute and identified themselves only as Africans, without adjectives or ambiguous qualifications as African-European.\nDespite the persisting ambiguities, the European diaspora minorities have shown symptoms of effective management of the Oedipus complex that distinguishes them from the communities of African origin who were forced to set up diaspora. Therefore, it is also clear that voluntary departure (colonization) or forced removal (slavery) ultimately constrains the characteristics of minority identities over the generations. Nevertheless, in practical terms and according to Freud\u2019s ideal type, after the cutting of the umbilical cord both the affiliation to the national territorial identities of the host societies and, at a later stage, the interactions between diaspora\u2019s identities and the original identities become more fruitful when compared to the low profile interactions result- ing from persisting umbilical dependence.\nThe article is a sequence of systematic conclusions resulting from a long maturing of ideas. We end up with a challenge to all who are interested in learning more about societies and the human condition: Take the main theories, concepts, methodologies and analytical models widely tested in Northern Hemisphere societies and use them in systematic studies of empirical realities usually marginal to the academic mainstream, like today\u2019s Afri- can societies. This is a promising approach not only for a better understanding of social diversity in the world today, but also for a deep epistemological renewal of the social sciences and humanities.\nAlmond, G ., & Verba, S.

The perspective consi- dered here includes social representations based on common sense speeches (Moscovici, 2000) . Hence the regimes dominated by white minorities of Southern Africa (South Africa/Namibia and Rhodesia) are considered extensions of European-type colonial domination (Ribeiro 2013) .\n2\u201cthe moral and customary prohibitions which we ourselves obey may have some essential relation to this primitive taboo the explanation of which may in the end throw light upon the dark origin of our \u2018categorical imperative.\u2019 (\u2026) The taboo then gradually became an autonomous power which has detached itself from demonism. It becomes the compulsion of custom and tradition and finally of the law\u201d (Freud, 2012: pp. 21, 23) .\n3In the origin of the idea of society, social relationships have taken on characteristics of physical relations which, for this reason, have forced individuals to marry outside their original totem and the violation of the incest taboo means social death, if not the offender\u2019s physical de- mise. Freud\u2019s idea is that the horror of incest was far more relevant to primitive communities than contemporary societies, since it would have had a religious-magical charge (Freud, 2012) .\n4The survival of primitive-type communities was particularly threatened by scarcity. For long periods, these communities were heavily de- pendent on scarce resources due to poor soils, lack of rain, inclement weather and cyclical epidemics or because they were unproductive hunter-gatherer economies. Their social and economic reproduction systems were always dependent on feelings of shared identities. In gen- eral, they involved the circulation of women and cattle (or other material goods underlying marital exchanges) in opposite directions imposed by the totemic ideal, which ensured communities\u2019 better resistance to ecological constraints (Feliciano, 1998; Granjo, 2005) .\n5An attitude object without attributes as hegemony, power and violence does not assume the characteristics of symbolic founder of a given community (see Chaiken & Eagly, 1993 ).\n6The founding father\u2019s supreme strength allowed him to expel males who had reached the age of procreation from of the small horde (a term that Freud attributed to Darwin) (Freud, 2012: p. 129) .\n7According to Freud (2012) the ambivalence became so structural in the collective sense of belonging that the more the community pulled away from the totemic ideal, the more it tended to be replaced by religious ideals similar to those we know. This transformation means that, after having gone through nonhuman totemic forms, because of religion the symbolic representation of the founding father resumed human- like forms, equivalent to his more remote characteristics preserved in the collective unconscious. In certain situations, the replacement of the totemic by religious worship was imposed by a god who, by destroying the totemic symbol, merely killed himself to be reborn in a new form.\n8According to the spirit dating back to the second half of the nineteenth century, Freud (2012/1912-1913) developed a line of reasoning about the symbolic dimension of the human condition that plays with the long continuity of historical time of humanity, between the origins and current. Comte, Darwin or Marx, in different fields, were authors who preceded Freud in such interpretative approaches in which time and space variables were dealt with comprehensively, one of the attributes of the reinvention of knowledge at that time. While the assumptions of the approaches in question subsequently became unacceptable given their reliance on teleological prospects in which the Europeans and their societies at the time were self-represented as a point of arrival of the civilizational stage of humanity, this does not erase the relevance of these authors.\n9Freud\u2019s thought, expressed in his vast work, evolved from a vision focused on repressed primary instincts and the discharging of these instincts, as in Totem and Taboo (1912-1913). It then focused on the self-preservation of the human species centered on the drive towards death. Later the centrality of the human condition was regarded as the tragedy of dependence on others and the transfer of this dependence outside the subject for certain purposes. While repression was no longer central to Freud\u2019s analysis on a set of psychological phenomena (neurosis, psychosis, paranoia, inhibition, anxiety, phobia, obsession, hysteria, fear), it still remained central to the specific issue of personal and social identities (see Dias & Magalh\u00e3es, 2000 ).\n10In this context, the term nation is not an analytic advantage. It produces interpretations by analogy, i.e. transposition of interpretative ap- proaches from one context to another, since the idea of a nation is heavily dependent on European historical background. Thus, we have used more accurate terms such as national territorial identities or national territorial formations.\n11The authors conducted fieldwork in Mozambique between 1997 and 2013. In this large, multiethnic country, data were collected in urban and rural areas in the southern (Maputo, Gaza), central (Sofala and Tete) and northern (Nampula and Niassa) provinces. The fieldwork mainly involved common people and members of the political, economic, academic or cultural elites. The empirical material is mainly based on common sense discourse. This material collected over the years represents over 500 open individual and collective interviews lasting from 30 minutes to three hours. In addition, the authors conducted ongoing studies of the Mozambican press and surveys expressed in the authors\u2019 publications (Bussotti, 2008; Ribeiro, 2000, 2002, 2008, 2012, 2013) . The bibliographical study and the authors\u2019 experience in the field of African Studies, including conducting conferences and seminars and participating in scientific congresses are worth nothing.\n12The persistent validity of Freud\u2019s ideal type also has to do with 1) his attempt to rationalize the differences between peoples and cultures, taking account of the specificities of time and space of each; 2) the idea that the meanings that people attach to the world around them have undergone different transformations throughout history, after being united in an ancient origin; and 3) his ability to make a strictly comprehensive comparative analysis, without ever depreciating the deep cultural or civilizational differences between peoples and cultures. Also, the major taboos of the human condition (murder, incest, profanation of identity) that Freud brought to the scientific field through psychoanalysis remain relevant in studies of individual and social identity processes ( Freud, 2012; see Freud, 2002: 108 et seq.; Weber, 2005c ).\n13Colonized-settler relations in Africa were substantially different to other colonized areas, especially in the Americas. In the latter case, the essence of postcolonial America was based on continuity of the social, economic and cultural domination that existed during colonization. In Africa, rejection of the colonial system that marked the independence processes were much more substantive, much beyond the political sphere, as the civilizational impact of European domination on native populations had been quite significant and remained overwhelmingly dominant during colonization in terms of demographic proportionality. African history shows once again that it is independence that is sus- tainable in the long term, not time-limited, finite colonial domination, wherever it takes place.\n14A symptom is the substitute for the repressed idea (Freud, 2008: p. 26) .\n15It is also worth considering that the recomposition in postcolonial African societies has been conditioned by phenomena such as violence, crime and other symptoms that are threatening social stability and cohesion. In general in these societies, changes in the structural institutions, particularly in traditional family systems, have not generated compensatory systems to regulate social life efficiently enough, for example, religious, associative or professional authorities and central government. The ongoing postcolonial transformations are no less associated with imbalances in income distribution, population growth and rapid urbanization. The disruptive symptoms of these phenomena have been recognized by African populations themselves.\n16Associated with the idea of sibling conflicts there is another issue that was not sufficiently explored in Freud\u2019s psychoanalytic ideal type, albeit implicit, but significant for the analysis of the foundations of African postcolonial and post-traditional social identities: the consequences of the European founding father\u2019s bigamy (or polygamy) for the collective sharing of a sense of community. Although all the children (siblings and half-siblings) have joined forces at a given time to get rid of the progenitor, the different maternal identities have always been strongly present and are therefore relevant in the differences between feelings of guilt and remorse caused by the murder of the father. Paradoxically, it is also this heterogeneity resulting from maternal origins that activates the need of extended communities (or subgroups of the community) to return to the unifying symbolic power of the dead father. However, the collective identities that interacted during European colonization and then became autonomous from each other are extremely difficult to characterize. They are related to spaces much wider than the national territories and refer to peoples scattered around the world who share the same official languages (Portuguese, Spanish, English, French). We do not have minimum or systematized elements to analyze this subject. So, we will just make a few inferences following Freud\u2019s ideal type (2012) . In the case of the colonial founder, it is particularly clear that some of the children still feel different from others, the children of European woman and of African woman. It means uniqueness around the father figure and duality around the mother figure, which on the one hand generates post-imperial European national territorial identities, and on the other postcolonial African national territorial identities. In the latter case, of which we can perform a substantive analysis, it is fair to also consider the existence of diverse mothers-Africa. It is the different maternal African origins (here symbolizing different ethnic ancestries) that explain the heterogeneity of postcolonial African national territorial identities. The inevitable need to manage these heterogeneities eventually imposes the symbolic return to the founders, both the African nationalist and the colonial father. Given its complexity, the identity equilibrium of postcolonial African societies raises questions about the validity of projective explanatory approaches based on the reinterpretation of the dramas of Oedipus, son of Laius and Jocasta, a monogamous couple, according to classical Greek mythology. Although Freud's ideal type is conditioned by the assumption of monogamy (a symptom of Judeo-Christian eurocentrism) it preserves the central role of feelings of guilt and collective remorse, even when his ideal type is used to interpret today\u2019s non-European social identities.\n17At an analytical level, from the perspective of common African people, not taking account of the ambivalent meanings of European colonial domination is like suppressing history and is therefore impossible. It was the ongoing ambivalent feelings, which were highly congruent with the African traditional magical-religious logics, that allowed the affirmation of African national heroes between the final phase of colonization and the first postcolonial times. Their epic weight lay in their ability to defeat and replace the former European tutelary power. However, according to an analysis of common people\u2019s discourse, feelings of affection for this power have been progressively generated, as it has been losing its threatening force for decades. The same happened before with the ancient traditional African powers during effective colonial domination. Then and now these feelings have invariably been consonant with the totemic logics that established the ancestral idea of society (see Ribeiro, 2013 ).\n18If the intention is not to exclude the common people\u2019s thinking or the everyday life from historiography, this involves a great epistemological challenge in the production of knowledge about societies where the writing tradition has been marginal (Ribeiro, 2013) .\n19In other national languages of Mozambique the word mulungo corresponds to maguerre, mucunha, muzungo, xicaca (Lindgaard, 2009) .\n20In Africa the telluric origins of the self-guilt principle that establishes the moral order of societies could be complemented with non-tradi- tional sources of collective guilt. Especially since the 1990s, this has been occurring via phenomena that are separate from those resulting from Africa\u2019s traditional matrix, but congruent with it. These recent phenomena even gradually penetrate the symbolic space of postcolonial African elites, dominated until now by hegemonic ideals of victimization, as mentioned in the article. In this case, on the one hand, there is the adoption, here and there throughout Africa, of the democratic ideal\u2015organized around an ideal type of active political participation, contrary to the hegemonic role of ideals of victimization in a given political system (Almond & Verba, 1989) \u2015and there are reasons to consider this to be a genuine process of adoption of democracy by African populations, as in any other continent, albeit with peculiar characteristics (Ribeiro, 2008) . On the other hand, rapid urbanization in Africa generates a growing membership of post-traditional religions, particularly Christian but also Islamic, both of whose moral order establishing the community of believers is founded on a guilt complex from the sacrifice of the prophet who redeemed the collective sins. These are phenomena whose actual impact on the foundations of the moral order in African societies is difficult to assess, but in any case they refer to essential dimensions in the regulation of everyday life: the rule of temporal tutelary power (political/democracy) and the rule of spiritual tutelary power (beliefs/religions) (see Bussotti, 2008 ). However, none of the phenomena in question conform to linear logic. In the first case, because of its intrinsically adaptive nature, the democratic ideal is not contradictory to the ideals of victimization. The current process will progressively open door to alternatives to the ideal of victimization in the heart of the African elites and, thus, in the heart of the states\u2019 tutelary power. In the second case, the expansion of monotheistic religions, especially Christianity (in its universal or syncretic versions), must be regarded as showing that African societies, like societies in general, also are living opposite trends towards secularization. Beyond the persistence of reinvented traditional magic-religious cults, even among the dominated social segments, the adherence to monotheistic ideals has had impacts significantly differentiated by gender. This is essentially a female phenomenon which makes it substantively distinct from the much more aggregative function of the ancient magic-traditional cults or monotheistic religions in the past. The latter were extended to societies\u2019 nuclear institutions as a whole, such as community or household, which was very different from the ongoing individualistic trends in African societies. So, permanent reworking of the foundations of the moral order of African societies is an extremely complex, dynamic process.\n21In mythology, Oedipus only achieved epic dimension after murdering his own father, King Laius (who sealed his fate by not complying with Apollo\u2019s order to kill his own son), and marrying his mother, Queen Jocasta, in Thebes. This was the city-state where Oedipus lived and prospered, while he believed he had been born to a different family from the city-state of Corinth, a metaphor that transforms the idea of origin into a symbolic place in which the conscious and unconscious intersect. Oedipus\u2019s life was tragic, but worthy.\n\u25cf AHS Subscription\n\u25cfMost popular papers in AHS\n\u25cfAbout AHS News",

It\u2019s an odd twist on the disgraced plagiarist-fabulist rehabilitation story, which often involves a legal career but not usually in the service of a beleaguered Central Asian ruling family. \"They are really proud of the reputations that they have earned,\" Posner says of the Karzais, \"and sort of in shock that they are viewed with such disdain in a country that is their ally in this process.\"\nSo far, Posner \u2014 who worked as a lawyer before becoming a journalist \u2014 says, his work on behalf of the Karzais has mostly involved pursuing potential libel cases against his old colleagues in the Western media, where the presidential family has taken a drubbing of late: The brothers have variously been accused of trafficking heroin, muscling their way into lucrative development projects, and selling materials for IEDs used against American troops. Posner hasn\u2019t filed any actual lawsuits yet, but says he is in contact with representatives of the New York Times, the New York Post, Fox News, the Toronto Star, and the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War think tank about reports they\u2019ve published concerning the Karzais that he believes to be potentially libelous. (\"We are investigating his request for correction at this point,\" Kathy English, the Star\u2018s public editor, told FP. \"He has suggested there is an inaccuracy, and our writer and I are looking into it.\")\nPosner\u2019s relationship with the Karzais goes back to October, when the Times reported that Ahmed Wali was on the C.I.A.\u2019s payroll, and repeated earlier allegations that he was deeply involved in Afghanistan\u2019s opium trade. Posner spoke with both Ahmed Wali and Mahmood by phone for a sympathetic Daily Beast story, in which he aired the brothers\u2019 complaints about their treatment by the Times. He met Mahmood and his wife in Washington in May, several months after his departure from the Beast.\nBy this point, Posner says, the brothers were starting to realize they had a PR problem. \"When [Gen. Stanley] McChrystal was coming to Kandahar and meeting [Ahmed Wali], and forming the policy in terms of security and the surge this fall,\" Posner says, \"there were a number of people on McChrystal\u2019s staff who said, \u2018Hey, people are saying these things about you, and it\u2019s making you a hot potato, difficult to deal with.\" Posner flew to Kabul the first week of June, during the Afghan peace jirga, in which the government was trying to forge some sort of consensus about the country\u2019s future. By the time he left town, his former sources had become his clients.\nPosner says that so far, the Karzais are his only customers, and while he won\u2019t say how much they\u2019re paying him, it\u2019s \"surprisingly less than almost anybody would expect.\" In addition to pursuing the Karzais\u2019 journalistic antagonists, Posner also helped arrange a conference call between investigators for a U.S. House subcommittee and Ahmed Wali and Qayum while the subcommittee was preparing a recent report on Afghanistan\u2019s warlords. He hopes to work with the Karzais to put together some sort of seminar on corruption in Afghanistan. Beyond that, it mostly sounds like your basic damage control, writing letters to the editor and generally tending to the brothers\u2019 worse-for-wear public image. \"You have to draw your battle lines,\" he says. \"I can\u2019t answer every blog post on the Karzais, but the more egregious ones I hope to do something about.\"\nPosner says he hopes to eventually return to journalism \u2014 his big project is completing a book on the Vatican than he began several years ago. \"I\u2019m not comparing myself to Doris Kearns Goodwin,\" he says, referring to the historian who was similarly tarred as a plagiarist before becoming a bestselling author with her book on Abraham Lincoln\u2019s policy brain trust, Team of Rivals. \"But what she did was disappear for a couple years and came back with a bulletproof, superb book. What I need to do is eventually come out with a book \u2014 it won\u2019t be about Afghanistan, but in three or four years I\u2019ll come back with that. And people will be able to say, he didn\u2019t put together two words from anyone.\"\nSo far, Posner\u2019s PR successes have been minor. When Pat Buchanan called Ahmed Wali the \"Al Capone of Kandahar\" in a column last month, Posner e-mailed him to complain. (Buchanan didn\u2019t respond to emails about the exchange this afternoon.) \"Buchanan wrote back,\" Posner says, \"and said, \u2018You know, the more I think about it, it was unfair. Maybe I was thinking more Boss Tweed than Al Capone.\u2019\"\nTags: Afghanistan, Central Asia, Corruption, Development, Drugs & Crime, Foreign Aid, Media, North America, Politics",

It\u2019s Possible With Common-Sense Limitations on Abortions\nNew York City Does it Again! \u2192\n(Photo Credit: Texas A&M Health Science Center)\nThank You, President Trump for taking the initiative to acknowledge the humanity in an unborn child and thank you for pointing out the inhumanity of those would-be mothers who choose to abort the life inside them.\nLast night in his State of the Union Address, Trump announced that he will ask Congress for a bill outlawing abortions when the fetus has developed to the point when it can feel pain.\n\u201cI am proud to be the first President to include in my budget a plan for nationwide paid family leave, so that every new parent has the chance to bond with their newborn child.\nThere could be no greater contrast to the beautiful image of a mother holding her infant child than the chilling displays our nation saw in recent days. Lawmakers in New York cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother\u2019s womb moments from birth. These are living, feeling, beautiful babies\u2026. And then, we had the case of the Governor of Virginia where he stated he would execute a baby after birth.\nTo defend the dignity of every person, I am asking Congress to pass legislation to prohibit the late-term abortion of children who can feel pain in the mother\u2019s womb. \u201c\nHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi (from the hedonist state of California) and Senator Chuck Schumer (from the killing fields of New York) called a border wall to prevent criminals and drugs from flooding into our communities \u201cimmoral\u201d but these same Democratic leaders and Democrats everywhere think it\u2019s perfectly moral to ignore the humanity of the life growing inside a woman\u2019s womb to the point where that life can be sacrificed as it passes through the birth canal. It is about time we acknowledge that human beings create life in a woman\u2019s womb, and it\u2019s a woman\u2019s role in this thing we call nature and the circle of life. Indeed it is the greatest of all God\u2019s blessings for her to be able to do so. The absolute moral thing to do is to respect this miracle and to respect life, even if that life cannot yet function independently. We were all dependent on a mother at one time \u2013 both in her womb and then for a couple years after that.\nTrump is bold. Trump is just. Trump is right. A woman\u2019s right to control her reproduction is not a complete right\u2026 It is not broad enough \u2013 it CANNOT be broad enough \u2013 to include the right to kill another human being, again no matter how young and helpless that human being is.\nFull transcript, President Trump\u2019s State of the Union Address (2019), White House \u2013 https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-state-union-address-2/\nWhite House Briefings, 2019 State of the Union Address (Feb. 5, 2019) \u2013 https://www.whitehouse.gov/sotu/\nThis entry was posted in Uncategorized and tagged abortion, abortion rights, Democrats, Diane Rufino, fetal rights, fetus, immoral v. moral, infanticide, late-term abortion, Life, life of the unborn, living fetus, moral v. immoral, Pelosi, right to life, Schumer, SOTU, state of the union, Trump, unborn.

He was 83.\nThe cause was complications of pneumonia, his son, Allen, said.\nMr. Ferro burst into the film business in 1964 with his attention-getting title sequence for \u201cDr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb,\u201d Stanley Kubrick\u2019s nuclear-age black comedy. His hand-lettered titles, full of incongruous sizes (the gigantic \u201cA\u201d in \u201cA STANLEY KUBRICK PRODUCTION\u201d dwarfed the other words), appeared over footage of aircraft refueling in midflight.\nIn a 2009 article about groundbreakers in Mr. Ferro\u2019s profession, The New York Times called it \u201cthe title sequence that inspired a thousand hand-drawn title sequences.\u201d\nRe: Pablo Ferro, Who Energized Films\u2019 Opening Credits, Dies at 83\nI once saw his trailer for Dr. Strangelove on the big screen.

        "raw_content": "In June 2008, the Ethan Fire burned 6,660 acres of salt cedar (Tamarix spp.) infested riparian habitat along the Gila River on the Gila River Indian Community land. In an effort to demonstrate efforts to control salt cedar re-growth in the burned area, 16 acres (two demonstration plots, one 13-acre plot and one 3-acre plot) in the Gila River Wetlands Study Area were treated with two different types of herbicide in December 2008.\nThe Gila River Indian Community Department of Environmental Quality hired Fred Phillips Consulting to design a restoration and monitoring plan for the 16 acres. Once the herbicide treatment was completed, FPC began conducting site and soil analysis to develop revegetation and irrigation plans. The project area presents many challenges for restoration including high salts in the river channel and ground water, depth to water in many places below 8 feet, and accessibility to the site. Salt tolerant native plants, drip irrigation, and deep pot planting were all integrated into a creative revegetation design to outcompete regenerating salt cedar. The primary goal of the monitoring plan will be to measure the effectiveness of the herbicide application on preventing the re-growth of salt cedar.",

        "raw_content": "Toxicodendron rydbergii (Small ex Rydb.) Greene\nSumac (Anacardiaceae)\nLate Spring flowering Late Summer to Autumn fruiting\nWestern Poison Ivy is and erect native perennial shrub that produces a woody stem, usually unbranched. Unlike the Eastern Poison Ivy it does not have aerial roots and does not climb. However, a robust plant can produce a stout woody stem reaching several feet in the air.\nLeaves are alternate and divided into 3 widely oval leaflets that have a pointed tip. Side leaflets are usually shorter than the terminal leaflet. Leaves are on long hairless leafstalks that are usually attached at the top of the stem and the base of the stalk is enlarged leaving a U-shaped scar after the leaf drops away. The upper surface of the leaf is a smooth shiny dark green (bronze-green when young). Margins may be smooth or have shallow teeth. Size varies from 1 to 6 inches long and 1 to 4 inch wide. Fall color is yellow to orange-red.\nThe inflorescence is an elongated slightly branched panicle, with each panicle cluster having 25 or fewer stalked flowers. Flower clusters occur at the axils of the leaves at the top of the old growth stem.\nThe Flowers are very small, 5-part, with a cup shaped hypanthium with a short green calyx that has 5 triangular lobes. The corolla has 5 white to greenish-white triangular petals that spread and reflex slightly when the flower is open. There are five stamens that have white filaments and yellow anthers that surround a central pistil. The globose ovary and pistil are green with a 3 lobed stigma. Flowering time varies with the latitude.\nFruit: Flowers mature to round dry drupe, green initially, turning to a dull ivory at maturity and may remain on the stem all winter. Each contains a single seed. The entire plant is toxic - see notes at bottom of the page.\nHabitat: Western Poison Ivy grows from a much branched rhizomatous base that will form colonies of plants. It grows best on wood edges and openings and in open spaces with full to at least partial sun. Soil conditions can range from poor to rich but there must be adequate moisture.\nNames: The genus name, Toxicodendron, means 'poison tree' and is used for the various poison ivies. The species name rydbergii, is named after Per Axel Rydberg (1860-1931), Swedish-American Botanist. In Eloise Butler's time the species was known as Rhus toxicodendron L. var. vulgaris. The authorship of the plant classification is complex. The first to describe the plant - \u2018Small\u2019 - refers to John Kunkel Small (1869-1938), American Botanist, first curator of the New York Botanical Garden, best known for Flora of the Southeastern United States. His work was amended by Dr. Rydberg ('Rydb.') who was the first curator of the New York Botanical Garden Herbarium. He received a commission from the US Dept. of Agriculture for a botanical exploration of several places in the western states and his expertise was in the flora of the Great Plains and Rocky Mountains. He described approximately 1,700 new species. Finally, additional work was done by \u2018Greene\u2019 who was Edward Lee Greene (1843-1915), American botanist who wrote Landmarks of Botanical History, named or re-described over 4,400 species of plants in the American west and was the first Professor of Botany at the University of California.\nComparison: The close relative of Western Poison Ivy is Eastern Poison Ivy, Toxicodendron radicans, which has leaves with lobes, and has aerial roots for climbing.\nAbove: 1st photo - The branched flower cluster occurs in the leaf axils where new growth springs from the old stem. 2nd photo - The large three-part leaf from which comes the warning \"leaves of three, let them be.\" 3rd photo - The old twiggy stem of prior years growth has characteristic U-shaped leaf scars.\nBelow: Individual flowers are stalked and have 5-part white to greenish-white spreading petals. 1st photo - After fertilization, the anthers have turned dark and the green ovary is exposed. 2nd photo - The yellow anthers are erect around the style until fertilization. The last photo on this page shows a rather large inflorescence on a stout plant.\nBelow: The flowers mature to a round ivory color berry, bearing a single seed. They persist all winter.\nBelow: 1st photo - Young leaves of springtime begin with a greenish-bronze color. 2nd photo - Fall color can be a nice red. Note the mature berries. Young or old, the leaves, berries and stems are toxic.\nBelow: An example in Summer Green.\nNotes: Western Poison Ivy is indigenous to the Garden. Eloise Butler catalogued it on May 25, 1907. In her 1926 article Shrubs in the Wild Garden she noted it was on of the four most abundant under-shrubs. She also stated that it could be denominated as \"weedy\" and was grubbed out continually. She also brought into the Garden the Eastern Poison Ivy in 1912 from an East Coast source. Both are still extant. While called 'western' this species is found coast to coast in North America with the exceptions being the states of the SE part of the U.S. and California; and in Canada it is found in all the lower provinces except Labrador and Newfoundland. Within Minnesota, it is widespread throughout the state with most exceptions being in the western half of the state whereas the Eastern Poison Ivy is only known in 7 widely separated counties.\nToxicity: Fear of poison ivy is well-known. All parts of the plant contain the clear colorless oil called urushiol which causes dermatitis outbreaks. Most humans are susceptible to the itchy blistering rash. There are modern over-the-counter remedies for it but prior to their development a treatment was to to wash with alcohol (avoiding eyes, mouth and open sores) as alcohol dissolves the oil. Water does not and simply spreads the oil around unless combined with a powerful bar soap such as Fels-naptha which works well against the oil if used soon after exposure - otherwise Fels-naptha is a laundry soap, not to be used for washing skin normally. The oils remain potent for months after leaving the plant. Thus tools and clothing that has touched the plant will still be toxic. Burning anything that contains the oil spreads it in the smoke. Inhaling the smoke is the worst possible case as it infects areas you cannot treat - the inner linings of the mouth and throat. One must be careful in the seasons when leaves are not present as the woody twigs sticking up from the ground still are dangerous and may be confused with other woody plants unless you see those U-shaped leaf scars. Poison Ivy can be eliminated with glyphosate based herbicides and most products labeled Brush or Stump Killers.",

Then, I said, \u201cCinnamon wouldn\u2019t possibly want to go on a walk right now, she just wants to sleep all day and not move from this spot and be lazy all day\u2026\u201d\nThen, she popped her head up, spun around, and made a funny noise at me as if she was saying angrily, \u201cHey I do wanna go on a walk Paula!\u201d\nThen, out of nowhere she licked my elbow three times, and dooted me with her nose. She\u2019s like come on Paula come on let\u2019s go!! She was waiting for me to get off my computer and get dressed so we could go on a walk. I was like ok ok hold on for one second. I\u2019m doing something. So, as I said that, she walked over to the bottom of the stairs, stretched out her body, and waited there for me.\nShe hardly ever does that! Normally, it\u2019s so hard for me to even get her out of the couch to go on a walk in the first place, but not today. Today she was so excited that she even started running around the house fast like an energizer bunny and played with her new dog toy. It was so cute. I don\u2019t know where she gets all of this energy from, but she sure had a lot of it this afternoon. I\u2019m glad because she had a good walk today. She was prancing around outside, all happy!",

        "raw_content": "2017: Hard to Look Back\nA few years ago, friends shared a New Year\u2019s Eve drink with my husband and me and toasted to \u201cwashing down\u201d the previous year. I remember agreeing that the year had presented its challenges, but wishing not to wash. The days had been long, but time still flew. The clocks melted; time both stood still and moved quickly, transporting us to a Dal\u00ed painting in which time is everything and nothing. I remember also thinking that every year brings good with bad, and we learn from challenges, yadda, yadda, yadda, right?\nThis past year, though, this past year was something else. 2017 hammered home how the world\u2019s psyche can be delivered, like a cat\u2019s dead rat, to our doorstep, rat-day in and rat-day out, another package full of lies and hatred, its Anthrax particles scattering into our homes, hearths, and hearts. Despite all of this, I still don\u2019t quite want to \u201cwash down\u201d the year. I firmly believe that activists are the greatest optimists. To push the rock up the hill every day, watch it roll back down, and then push it back up is to go necessarily Sisyphus on the regime\u2019s ass. I\u2019ve got a lot of metaphors working here, but it takes a metaphor juggler to keep so many balls of resistance in the air; it really does.\nJanuary brought racist travel bans and lies about inauguration crowds, but also the heroic gathering of lawyers at airports and the awe-inspiring, seven-continent Women\u2019s March. In subsequent months, we experienced the soul-sucking Trumpcare proposal, James Comey\u2019s firing, growing concerns about Russian interference in the 2016 election and the Trump presidency in general, elimination of DACA protections, the Syrian airstrike, and Trump\u2019s support of Nazis following the events of Charlottesville, natural and national disasters in Puerto Rico, Texas, and California, and the U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Accord. (*Check out Jason Abruzzesse\u2019s piece on Trump\u2019s first eight months in office.) I haven\u2019t even mentioned the #MeToo wave that implicates Trump all the more. ACLU President Anthony Romero has even written an outstanding and detailed article on Trump as a \u201cone-man constitutional crisis.\u201d (*See also John Cassidy\u2019s summary of Trump\u2019s first nine months in office here; Here is CNN\u2019s report on Trump\u2019s first six months in office; Here is the White House version of Trump\u2019s first six months in office. All citizens should be aware of the White House whitewashing\u2014you\u2019ve got to read this stuff!) Anyone following the news in the most superficial of ways must be affected by its content, by what it tells us about our nation\u2019s direction and relationship with its own residents. The sum total is, in a word, trauma.\nIn the political realm, the worst 2017 moment I witnessed\u2014the very worst day to have to admit I am from the United States\u2014was the day the nation\u2019s \u201cpresident\u201d traveled to Puerto Rico after the most devastating hurricane in the island\u2019s history and blithely threw paper towels out to people at a relief center as if they were audience members on a game show (reported here by the BBC). The reality of the White House\u2019s relationship to Puerto Rico already presents abundant and problematic colonial legacies without complicating the personal, economic, and environmental losses resulting from Hurricane Maria (*see this piece from today\u2019s El Nuevo D\u00eda for a summary of Puerto Rico\u2019s current economic crisis). The United States needs a leader who knows enough to listen to his own citizens from Puerto Rico, to appreciate the leadership of San Juan mayor Carmen Yul\u00edn Cruz, and to understand Puerto Rico from a nuanced historical, economic, political, and artistic standpoint. The paper towel incident epitomizes Trump\u2019s ignorance, inhumanity, and willingness to do even more harm.\nThe other day, I read an article from the 12-29-17 edition of The New York Times about increased binge drinking in the United States. The author, Gabrielle Glaser, writes: \u201cMany alcohol researchers and substance-use clinicians believe the steady increase in problem drinking arises from a deeply felt sense of despair: \u2018Since the attacks on 9/11, we\u2019ve been in a state of perpetual war, and a lot of us are traumatized by that,\u2019 said Andrew Tatarsky, a clinical psychologist who specializes in treating people with substance-use disorders.\u201d The key concepts here are despair (in Spanish, desesperaci\u00f3n, the emptying out of hope and expectations), perpetual war, and trauma. Since I\u2019ve gone from 36 years old to 52 since 9/11/2001, I haven\u2019t been sure how to measure the ingredients of the increased sense of deep preoccupation: having children whose future I worry about; having parents whose well-being is/was a daily concern; experiencing my own aging process, physically, emotionally, and intellectually; the military-industrial complex with its trillion-dollar budgets that seem to rob us of any focus on education and health; the troubled belonging to a nation claiming to be the world\u2019s keeper of democracy but continuing to operate dishonestly in the world and to diminish the sense of humanity of its own citizens; the sadness of it all; the shame.\nFor my friends who read this blog who wish I would stop bad-mouthing the United States, I hope you know that there are many elements of United States culture that I appreciate highly. One of them is the freedom to write this blog and to express opinions that go against White House policy, leadership, and ethos. Nevertheless, to be a responsible citizen is to understand when elected leaders have gone way beyond the power of their office, way beyond respect for human beings and the earth. Being a responsible citizen means thinking through issues carefully, avoiding knee-jerk reactions, and expressing platforms thoughtfully. The Black Lives Matter movement happened for a whole host of important reasons. The knee-jerk \u201cblue lives matter\u201d response creates a false equivalency and gets us absolutely nowhere. We have to get to the point at which we value and build upon movements that give voice and power to those who have been silenced and oppressed, or whose parents and grandparents were silenced and oppressed.\nI keep saying that I was never able to get in front of 2017. I\u2019m a generally efficient person, but 2017 delivered so much national and global strife that organizing, reading, writing, and protesting had to occupy vast amounts of my time and mental space. I needed to connect with others\u2014in person and on digital platforms\u2014to effect some change and to feel emotions not linked to shame. Although this meant sacrificing elements of self-care (never a good idea), I was unable to find a better course of action and still haven\u2019t. I don\u2019t know how to strike a balance between caring and caring too much because so much is at stake every single day. The total solar eclipse tells us of how we lost the sun for a time, but maybe the 2018 supermoons will present a new story of how we can care for self and others.\nAuthor mayockePosted on January 2, 2018 February 15, 2018 Tags despair, Puerto Rico, racism, travel ban, Trump2 Comments on 2017: Hard to Look Back\nShame, in Five Acts\n(Just your typical sign at the checkout counter of Dick\u2019s Sporting Goods)\nAct One: The Dream\nBrown people are not stealing\nthe jobs of white people.\nBrown people are not stealing.\nWhite people steal in the dead of night\u2014\nborders, jobs, lands, people, words, paintings, ideas, bodies.\nThis is empire; this is colony.\nStealing it all and blaming those who lose it all.\nBrown people are dreaming\ndreams already made reality for the white people\nwho complain of brown people wanting too much,\nliving above their station, taking jobs meant for others,\narticulating a desire to be treated as human beings.\nBrown people are dreaming of a time when brown means\nWork, labor, vida, amor\u2014, and not having to see brown.\nAct Two: One Lid at a Time\nThe alarm rings.\nOne eyelid opens.\nIs he still president?\nThe other eyelid shudders,\ncan\u2019t open, can\u2019t greet the day.\nThe other eyelid opens,\nburdened, heavy,\nwilling the eye not to see.\nDo I still live in the United States?\nBoth eyelids close, shuttered.\nThe alarm insists.\nBoth eyes regard, en garde.\nThe body resists this existence\nin a regime made in USA,\nbuilt to deny, hurt, annihilate.\nEyes open; heart resists.\nBeat, come on, beat, heart,\nstart the day.

The terrible news across the globe has me low, but then I think about the people directly affected by all the news and how they must be doing. I\u2019ve asked many times here on the blog how much lower we will have to go before we can effect true change, and I sincerely wish I knew the answer. For this week\u2019s blog, I\u2019m just writing about local events because I don\u2019t know yet how to tackle the national and international ones.\nI\u2019ve been wondering: When you\u2019re in hot water, and things get more dire, is the water hotter or deeper, or both?\nAs you likely know, the Gender Shrapnel Blog emerged from my book, Gender Shrapnel in the Academic Workplace (Palgrave, 2016). The university where I work has predictably had a conflicted relationship with this book, which critiques colleges and universities for not fixing problems of gender (and race, class, parental status, among other intersectional categories) and, in some cases, for exacerbating these problems. I understand my university\u2019s relationship with Gender Shrapnel (after all, I wrote a book about it) and am wholly unsurprised by the book\u2019s reception on campus. Nevertheless, since the job of the book and this blog is to provide information about, analyze, and suggest remedies for cases of gender and intersectional shrapnel, I am compelled at this moment to take a look at the book\u2019s reception and to link the reception to other lukewarm (or maybe lukecold) responses to local shrapnel incidents.\nAlthough folks might bristle at my calling out my institution on gender shrapnel, I hope they know that I\u2019m speaking again of accumulated incidents over several years\u2019 time. The incidents demonstrate that intersectional shrapnel still flies and lessons aren\u2019t learned. Codes of civility (*addressed in this post) might have me silence these facts, but silence doesn\u2019t get us where we need to be. The driving force of the status quo makes any person, comment, question, or protest who/that challenges it seem \u201cuncivil,\u201d and this silencing moves us backwards. Some readers might suggest that, if I don\u2019t like where I teach, I should get out. Please know that, for the most part, I actually do like where I teach. I like what I teach, whom I teach, where I teach. (I do like green eggs and ham. I do like them, Sam I Am.) Twenty years at one place can create deep ties and affectionate sentiments, and also a long-term perspective about the need and potential for real change.\nAt the university where I teach, professors\u2019 books are usually highlighted on the university webpage and in the Alumni Magazine. Many kind people in our publications office made sure to include mention of Gender Shrapnel in these venues last year when the book came out. Instead of being interviewed about the content of the book for the website piece, though, I was asked to focus on the advising work I do with students. The book was certainly mentioned in the piece, no problem, but it wasn\u2019t supposed to be the centerpiece. I should have rejected this approach, but didn\u2019t. It is hard to reject these approaches when they are suggested by people you have liked and respected for two decades. I never saw the piece actually featured on the website, even though I check the site daily. It must have flown in and out rather quickly.\nMore recently, an excerpted section of this blog post about Mark Lilla and campus politics was published as a letter to the editor in The Chronicle of Higher Education. The blog post and excerpted letter defend contemporary college students from Lilla\u2019s accusations that they are overprotected and disengaged from the communities around them. This is the kind of piece (a letter to the editor on a higher education issue) usually posted somewhere on our website, even if a few layers deep, but it never made it on. I can\u2019t tell if it\u2019s because it doesn\u2019t rate or is linked to the blog itself. A link to the blog, which mentions university unmentionables, is likely to be avoided at all costs. I get that the university website serves to sell the university to its many constituencies, but I don\u2019t understand why we don\u2019t actually celebrate our ability to engage in disagreement and be richer for it. I\u2019ve heard myself say several times lately that the university (not just mine; probably all) gives and then takes away. University officials assure us that we are addressing diversity issues head on, and then we slow things down. I can\u2019t imagine how presidents can balance pleasing all constituencies with making real change, but I can imagine how presidents actually make change.\nI am not certain what I think about the representation of people of color on our website. Students of color are featured somewhat often, I think, but I rarely see notices about staff and faculty of color. We have trouble hiring and retaining people of color for a host of reasons. We recognize many of these reasons (our name and heritage; homogeneity; rural Virginia; KKK leaflets on front lawns; flaggers marching down Main Street; and a long etcetera), but seem to have trouble grappling with them in forthright conversations and calls for transformation.\nBack when Gender Shrapnel was published, the library staff generously asked me to do an author talk, and there was not even a whiff of censorship in that venue. Librarians like books, and I believe they like information and respectful debate. Several administrators, some staff members, and many faculty members have read, thought about, and encouraged the work on gender shrapnel. I am not writing this post because I feel the book has been wholly neglected. I\u2019m writing it because I believe the areas in which the book has been neglected are precisely the areas in which our university needs to do the hard work of recognizing a racist and misogynistic past in order to make smarter decisions about the current state of the school.\nAt that same time, over at the university bookstore, in the faculty publications section, I noticed that Gender Shrapnel still had not appeared and that books that were a decade old were still featured front and center. Even though it\u2019s embarrassing to have to ask your own bookstore to pay attention to your publication, I mentioned to the managers that I would appreciate if they could include my new book in the faculty publications section. They kindly agreed. A few weeks later, I saw the bookstore\u2019s special exhibit on banned books. The bookstore had one or two shelves dedicated to Catcher in the Rye, The Call of the Wild, Catch-22, and Beloved, all books that had at some point been banned. At that point, when I looked for Gender Shrapnel, I found it on the bottom-most shelf of the faculty section, in the left-hand corner, alongside a co-edited volume of mine from six years before. It was hard to find the co-edited volume or the new book because placed in front of them was a large hat rack with men\u2019s straw hats with the school\u2019s ribboned insignia. The university has found ingenious ways to comply with equitable treatment without actually complying with equitable treatment. (*See photos.)\nLike many of us, each morning I visit about six websites (banking, news, you know the drill), and one of them is my university\u2019s website. This summer the website featured the same white men for three months. I like these men and respect their work very much. I want to see them and their work featured on the website. But I also want the institution to understand the message it sends, day after day for at least 90 days. It is telling us that white men\u2019s work matters and is to be featured. The absence of features on the accomplishments of people of color and women just seems to communicate that people of color and women don\u2019t do work that matters. The omission reminds many of us that what we read about bias in student evaluations (*see this report; this one; this one; and this one, for example) is easily reinforced through broad institutional messages. Women are \u201chelpful,\u201d and men are \u201cbrilliant.\u201d Men are the doers; women and people of color are the helpers.\nI strongly believe that some of these actions are deliberate\u2014carefully protected messaging to a high-traffic site\u2014and some are accidental\u2014a constant forgetting that women and people of color actually exist and achieve. In Gender Shrapnel, I say over and over that, in the end, intention or lack of intention matters not. The effect is the same. This is exactly what Dr. Wornie Reed said in his talk here in Lexington when he gave statistics on unequal policing across the races on Virginia highways.\nInvisibility and visibility were themes of this Gender Shrapnel Blog post about a year ago. Invisibility reigns when people of color and women accomplish big things. People of color and women gain visibility when seen as appendages to others or when they/we are criticized for stepping out of line, for calling racism and sexism what they are, for protesting centuries of injustice. (*See this blog post that briefly discusses Colin Kaepernick\u2019s case.) While Gender Shrapnel has been somewhat invisible in some campus and electronic locations, the blog has been visible enough to get me in hot water. This post and this one must not have sat well with somebody, somewhere, because I was called in to an administrator\u2019s office for a conversation about them. This revealed the institution\u2019s uneasiness on some level with frank discussion of the problematic history and recent events of our institution and our area. I worry, too, that this action was an attempt to \u201cmanage,\u201d or control, conversations that seem too out of tightly controlled bounds.\nAt the same time, individuals and groups from many corners of the institution where I work seem sincerely committed to understanding legacies of slavery, racism, and white supremacism. This heightened awareness is to be embraced, but it is not enough, and it is not intersectional enough. As demonstrated in this NPR piece of 2014, the institution already knew it had work to do three years ago, and we/it has a long way to go. The formation of a commission to examine all the issues proves an excellent step, but we have to be careful not to give with one hand and take away with ten. Citing Robert E. Lee at big events, celebrating alumni who use traditional women\u2019s garb and Confederate flags as \u201cjust a joke,\u201d and reinforcing millennia-old gender scripts through published materials detract from the good work and good words being done elsewhere.\nAuthor mayockePosted on October 4, 2017 February 16, 2018 Tags censorship, gender, higher education, intersectionality, racism, slavery, students of color, white supremacism1 Comment on Hotter Water\nWhen our children were small, I always used to say, \u201cDays are long, but time flies.\u201d When I teach about cultural differences, we discuss how people in a new culture adjust to the schedule (when you eat, sleep, work, and play). As I think about social and political change, I watch people experiencing time in different ways. For example, since the events of Charlottesville, more white people are \u201cwoke,\u201d but I don\u2019t think many more white people are moving more quickly to upend racist institutions. They\u2019re/We\u2019re absorbing the images of what we saw and examining the undeniable and unfair realities for African American people across the United States. We do need to keep absorbing and examining, but we also need to act. Charlottesville opened Pandora\u2019s box, and we have been stung by the moths of turmoil and death. Instead of slamming the lid shut, we can deal with the evils, make reparations, and create new signs and symbols that represent us and don\u2019t oppress. It is time to make some progress. In the case of racial justice, and social justice more broadly writ, impatience is a virtue, or, at the very least, a necessary bedfellow of patience.\nOver the past week or so the English department at my university has come under fire for making what seems to many a bold statement about the events of Charlottesville and the University of Virginia and how they are related to what we live here in Lexington. (*See this August 20, 2017, Gender Shrapnel Blog piece, \u201cCharlottesville (and Lexington),\u201d for more information.) Several other departments and programs are drafting statements, a challenging task for groups of people who don\u2019t always share core values or modes of expression. Washington and Lee Rhodes Scholar Paqui Toscano (Class of 2017) had two thoughtful and beautifully-written op-eds (on disability and on Confederate legacies) published this summer in The New York Times. Some universities would feature this front and center on the website, maybe with a headline like: \u201cRecent Grad and Rhodes Scholar featured again in The New York Times.\u201d I understand the politics of patience in the university\u2019s choice not to publish a piece that accelerates questioning of names and monuments. Nevertheless, I wish the choice were to share this piece\u2013to announce and embrace that our graduates are successful critical thinkers and public intellectuals.\nThe backlash against the English Department statement and the hush-hush of the op-ed remind me again of what I always say about a racist or sexist status quo\u2014that some people believe that challenging the status quo is more brutal than the racism or sexism itself. How are we so easily shocked by mild protest based in historical fact?\nThis week a group of people at the University of Virginia put a shroud over a statue of Thomas Jefferson. University President Teresa Sullivan expressed strong disagreement with the covering of the statue and the signs that called Jefferson a racist and rapist. She reiterated that the University has acknowledged its slave-owning past and is working towards healing the wounds of the August 11th weekend. Virginia Republican Party Chairman John Whitbeck referred to the actions (in the same piece from The Washington Post) as \u201cvandalism.\u201d The actions of the student protesters, as far as I can tell from the reports and photos I\u2019ve seen, don\u2019t seem to constitute vandalism in that the statue itself was neither destroyed nor defaced. In fact, this kind of symbolic protest (a shroud, some signs) seems about as respectful as it can be, unless we are still not supposed to acknowledge either racism or rape. The over-protection of Jefferson\u2019s image seems to imply an under-protection of those who have suffered from his legacy.\nYears ago, a colleague and friend said to me, \u201cThe best way for an administrator to slow something down is to create a committee.\u201d With a hot-button topic, like, say, Confederate monuments and celebrated Confederate generals, or, maybe, sexual assault, a committee can be appointed to study the topic and issue a report a year or so down the line. Many constituencies are then convinced the issue is being addressed, and then high-level folks can convince big-money folks that nothing has changed, that the status quo can still be embraced, and that the coffers are still open. I believe that these committees can do good work and actually do good work, and I appreciate the generosity of time and expertise of committee members. I appreciate the generosity of time and money of philanthropists as well. But I also believe that the work of these committees should be accompanied by shorter-term actions that ask difficult questions and seek necessary change sooner. My own impatience has me ask\u2014what are we waiting for? The time to stop celebrating structural racism and idolizing Confederate heroes is\u2026now!\nWe all live and experience both ambiguity and hypocrisy. This is part of being human. When we don\u2019t recognize these experiences, however, we diminish our ability to assess our condition and change it for the better. In my current state of hypocrisy, I occupy a newly renovated office which is quite palatial. The office is in the last building of Washington and Lee\u2019s historic colonnade to be renovated, and this renovation was funded in large part by a billionaire who, at a Wall Street fraternity induction event several years ago, dressed in drag (a fine thing to do, generally, but in this case the action seems to mock women and of course signals the small number of women at the exclusive fraternity event) and wore a Confederate flag on his head. I don\u2019t know this person, but I cannot condone or celebrate these actions, nor do I think they are counteracted very well by major philanthropy or good intentions in other arenas. If I were to don a Confederate flag and then go teach a class, I might expect people to condemn my action. If the individual or the University had ever explained or apologized for the message sent by this person\u2019s actions, I wouldn\u2019t feel as impatient as I do today. I confront this hypocrisy (criticizing the actions of the person who paid for the fancy office I inhabit) here in this blog, usually read by no more than 350 people in a week. I wish we as individuals and as parts of institutions could name the hypocrisies we live, critique them more soundly, and work to overcome them. Ardent defense of these actions has a chilling effect for those who prefer that African Americans not be threatened and women not be mocked.\nMy frequent use of passive voice in this post reveals some of my own cowardice. I may well be hiding behind language so as not to call people out directly or simply to protect myself. Confronting specific events and people and asking for change challenge us. While many people will read this post and find it too harsh, others will read it and find it too forgiving. Despite the different ways in which we measure time and societal change, I\u2019m still advocating for picking up our pace. Last night I attended Dr. Wornie Reed\u2019s excellent presentation on race, racism, and civil discourse. Reed strongly stated that racial justice must come from gathering data about the policies, practices, and procedures of our institutions, confronting the data, and recommending change based on the information. Dr. Reed specifically mentioned employment, medical care, housing, and law enforcement as institutional zones that need our attention. Although I don\u2019t collect data for a living, I try to understand published data that inform policy decisions. As a humanist, I listen to language and observe signs and symbols in order to interpret messages and understand how, when, and why they are sent. The language, signs, and symbols are my version of data, and we need to understand them as well to make informed recommendations for change.\nAuthor mayockePosted on September 14, 2017 February 18, 2018 Tags Charlottesville, pace of change, passage of time, racism, University of Virginia4 Comments on Impatience is a Virtue\nAuthor mayockePosted on August 20, 2017 February 18, 2018 Tags Charlottesville, civility, Confederacy, First Amendment, fraternity, Lexington, misogyny, racism, Second Amendment, University of Virginia, violence, Virginia, Virginia Military Institute, Wall Street, Washington and Lee University9 Comments on Charlottesville (and Lexington)",

        "title": "Allen Ginsberg in the East Village: A Self-Guided Walking Tour - Grey Gallery",
        "raw_content": "Compiled by Eliana Blechman and Amber Lynn, both Grey Art Gallery Interns and CAS \u201913\nThis tour is offered in conjunction with the exhibition Beat Memories: The Photographs of Allen Ginsberg, on view at the Grey Art Gallery, New York University, 100 Washington Square East, from January 15 to April 6, 2013.\nAfter growing up in Paterson, New Jersey, Allen Ginsberg began his freshman year at Columbia University in Morningside Heights in fall 1943. There he met many of the Beats who would remain his lifelong friends, including Jack Kerouac, William S. Burroughs, Lucien Carr, Neil Cassady, and Gregory Corso, among others. After graduating from Columbia and some traveling, Ginsberg moved downtown to an area that is now called the East Village (but until the mid-1960s was considered part of the Lower East Side). This walking tour explores the area he called home for over forty years.\nThe tour begins in Greenwich Village and moves east, featuring sites that Ginsberg frequented with his friends in the Beat circle. The tour is designed either to be taken all at once or split into two parts, with numbers 1\u201318 covering Greenwich Village and the St. Marks area, and numbers 19\u201329 exploring the East Village and Alphabet City. Depending on your walking speed, we estimate that the entire tour will take two-and-a-half to three hours. While exploring these iconic New York City locales, we encourage you to stop and enjoy the scenery and perhaps have a bite to eat.\nPlease note that while store and restaurant names were current at the time of publication (January 2013), it\u2019s possible that some properties will have changed hands (and names) by the time you take this tour.\nA beloved landmark of Greenwich Village and a major hub for New York University, Washington Square Park was once frequented by Beat artists, writers, and musicians. Allen Ginsberg gave poetry readings here, and he references the park in his best-known poem, \u201cHowl.\u201d\nExit the park south of the fountain at the intersection of Washington Square South and Thompson Street. Walk on the west side of Thompson Street for two blocks to Bleecker Street, then cross the street. The next destination is near the southwest corner of Thompson and Bleecker, past the CVS.\n2. Mills House, 160 Bleecker Street\nThis is the site of a former flophouse where Ginsberg lived in 1951 at the cost of $2.00 per night. Established as a hostel for \u201cpoor gentlemen\u201d in 1896, the building originally had 1,500 small rooms. Though it has since been converted into an apartment building, the name \u201cMills House\u201d is still visible above the front door.\nContinue walking west on Bleecker Street for about a block and a half until you reach MacDougal Street. Cross MacDougal Street, then cross Bleecker Street to reach the northwest corner of MacDougal and Bleecker. Walk north on MacDougal to reach the next destination.\n3. Former San Remo, 93 MacDougal (now La Pasta Bistro Grill)\nThis is the site of the former San Remo, a popular bohemian hangout for many of the Beat generation (nothing remains of the original building). Also among those who frequented it were Stanley Gould, Anton Rosenberg, Gore Vidal, John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Miles Davis, Frank O\u2019Hara, Jackson Pollock, and Tennessee Williams. Carl Solomon brought Ginsberg to meet Philip Lamantia at the San Remo in 1948. Ginsberg also met Dylan Thomas here, and tried to impress the older poet with his own work.\nGinsberg referred to the San Remo as the \u201ccenter of Kerouac\u2019s N.Y. social life.\u201d Kerouac often got drunk at the bar, and he was kicked out or beaten up outside the premises several times. The Remo inspired the bar \u201cThe Mask\u201d in Kerouac\u2019s The Subterraneans. Though the novel takes place in San Francisco, most of its locations are based on places in New York City. The novel\u2019s title is derived from a term Ginsberg coined to describe \u201cthe alienated, the disaffected, and the bohemians who hung out in places\u201d like the Remo.\nTurn around and cross MacDougal Street at the crosswalk at the MacDougal/Bleecker intersection. Now that you are on the east side of MacDougal, walk north again to the next destination.\n4. Former Kettle of Fish, 114 MacDougal Street\nThis location, which was formerly Kettle of Fish, was a very popular, hip bar frequented by the Beats. Kerouac was a regular here, and other patrons included Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, Bob Dylan, Edie Sedgwick, and Andy Warhol. A famous photograph of Kerouac casually leaning outside Kettle of Fish with his then-girlfriend Joyce Johnson was used in a 1993 ad for Gap khakis. In the ad, Johnson is brushed out, replaced by the headline \u201cKerouac wore Khakis.\u201d\nContinue walking north on MacDougal for a few steps to reach the next destination.\n5. Former Gas Light Caf\u00e9, 116 McDougal Street\nOriginally a gay bar, this spot became a Beat hangout when owner John Mitchell converted it into a caf\u00e9. The Gas Light was the first caf\u00e9 to offer poetry readings in the Village, featuring readers such as Ginsberg, Ray Bremser, Gregory Corso, Diane di Prima, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, LeRoi Jones, Jack Kerouac, Jack Micheline, and Peter Orlovsky. Mike Wallace\u2019s television interviews with the Beats were filmed on location at this well-known site on May 15, 1960.\nContinue walking north on MacDougal until you reach Minetta Lane. This street will intersect on your left (it is not a through street) and you will be able to cross MacDougal. Cross at Minetta Lane so that you are once again on the west side of MacDougal Street. The next destination is at the southwest corner of Minetta Lane and MacDougal Street.\nMinetta Tavern has played host to many famous writers over the years. During Prohibition it served as a speakeasy for Ernest Hemingway and John Dos Passos, in 1932 Reader\u2019s Digest was founded there, and starting in the 1950s it was a hangout for Ginsberg, Lucien Carr, and several of their friends. William S. Burroughs often bought dinner here for Ginsberg, Carr, Kerouac, and others, and Ginsberg and Carr remembered writing graffiti on the bathroom walls. It was also the site of a 1951 brawl between Gregory Corso and another patron over Marisol Escobar, whom Corso was dating at the time.\nCross Minetta Lane to reach the next destination at the northwest corner of Minetta Lane and MacDougal Street.\n7. Caf\u00e9 Wha?, 115 MacDougal Street\nIn the early 1960s, Caf\u00e9 Wha? was the site of Bob Dylan\u2019s first New York performance. Joan Rivers, Lenny Bruce, Bill Cosby, Jimi Hendricks, Woody Allen, and many others began their careers at Caf\u00e9 Wha?, which was sold in 1968 and renamed before switching back to its original name in the late 1980s. The venue is still a popular Greenwich Village music spot.\nContinue walking north on MacDougal Street toward West Third Street for a few steps to reach the next destination.\n8. Caf\u00e9 Reggio, 121 MacDougal Street\nCaf\u00e9 Reggio is one of very few remaining bohemian coffeehouses in the Village. Open since 1927, the caf\u00e9 has been frequented by many celebrities, featured in films, and visited by tourists seeking an authentic Greenwich Village coffeehouse experience.\nTurn left at the corner of West Third Street and MacDougal Street. Walk west on West Third Street toward Sixth Avenue. Cross Sixth Avenue and turn left. Walk south on Sixth Avenue toward Carmine Street. The next destination is on Sixth Avenue between West Third Street and Carmine Street.\n9. Former Fugazzi\u2019s Bar and Grill, 305 Sixth Ave (now LensCrafters)\nUnfortunately, nothing remains of Fugazzi\u2019s Bar and Grill, which Kerouac used as a hangout for the characters in his novel The Subterraneans. The bar also makes an appearance in Ginsberg\u2019s epic poem Howl, which mentions people \u201cWho sank all night in submarine light of Bickfords floated out and sat through the stale beer afternoon in desolate Fugazzi\u2019s, listening to the crack of doom on the hydrogen jukebox.\u201d\nTurn around and walk north on Sixth Avenue toward West Third Street. Continue walking to the intersection of Sixth Avenue and West Fourth Street. Cross Sixth Avenue and continue walking east on West Fourth Street (on the south side of the street) to reach the next destination.\n10. Former Pony Stable Inn, 150 West Fourth Street (now Washington Square Diner)\nThe former Pony Stable Inn, now Washington Square Diner, was a lesbian bar where Ginsberg and Gregory Corso first met around 1950. Corso showed some of his poems to Ginsberg, who found them impressive.\nTurn around and walk west on West Fourth Street to Sixth Avenue. Cross Sixth Avenue and walk north (toward Washington Place) until you reach the pedestrian island between West Eighth Street and West Ninth Street.\n11. Pedestrian island between West Eighth Street and West Ninth Street at Sixth Avenue\nGinsberg was famously photographed here, wearing a sign that read \u201cPot is a reality trip\u201d at a marijuana legalization rally (photo not in Grey exhibition).\nCross Sixth Avenue and walk toward West Eighth Street. Cross West Eighth Street and walk on its south side toward Washington Square West. The next destination is on the southeast corner of Washington Square West and West Eighth Street.\n12. Former Eighth Street Books, 32 West Eighth Street\nThe former Eighth Street Books was originally located here at the southeast corner of Eighth Street and MacDougal, before moving to No. 17 across the street. Opened by Ted and Eli Wilentz in 1947, the local bookshop was frequented for decades by Ginsberg and the Beats. The Wilentz brothers were publishers as well as booksellers, establishing Corinth Books and publishing poetry by Kerouac, Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, and others. After returning from his travels in India, Ginsberg stayed briefly with Ted Wilentz above the store. Ginsberg first met Bob Dylan here in 1964. At the time of this tour\u2019s creation, this building was vacant and unmarked.\nContinue walking east on West Eighth Street to University Place. Turn left on University Place, crossing West Eighth Street, and continue walking north past West Eleventh Street. The next destination is on University Place between West Eleventh and West Twelfth Street.\n13. Former Cedar Street Tavern, 82 University Place\nThe tavern at this location, which opened in 1964, was closed in 2006 to make way for today\u2019s luxury high-rise apartment building. From 1945 to 1963, the Cedar Street Tavern stood at 24 University Place, where it served as a hot spot for writers and artists. Among its patrons were Ginsberg, John Ashbery, Gregory Corso, LeRoi Jones, Jack Kerouac, Willem de Kooning, Franz Kline, Al Leslie, Jackson Pollock, Larry Rivers, Mark Rothko, and David Smith. Although many favored the Cedar\u2019s relaxed atmosphere, several artists managed to run into trouble during their visits. Jackson Pollock was banned from the Cedar for a month after kicking in its bathroom door, and Kerouac was barred after urinating into an ashtray.\nTurn around and walk south on University Place to East Tenth Street. Cross East Tenth Street, then cross University Place. Walk east on East Tenth Street toward Broadway. Continue walking east on East Tenth Street until you reach Second Avenue, then turn left. The next destination is on Second Avenue between Ninth and Tenth Streets.\n14. Former Caf\u00e9 Le Metro, 149 Second Avenue (now The 13th Step Bar and Grill)\nKnown as Saint Marks, this area marks the transition from Greenwich Village into the East Village. Caf\u00e9 Le Metro, which is no longer extant, was a popular site for literary readings. It was at the center of controversy in 1964, when it was issued a summons for hosting a reading that the city considered \u201cunlicensed entertainment.\u201d Ginsberg and many other members of the poetry community who used this space and other coffeehouses for readings fought the requirement for cabaret permits and won. Others who read or sang here include Julian Beck, Bob Dylan, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Pete Orlovsky, John Wieners, and Diane di Prima.\nContinue walking south on Second Avenue (toward East Ninth Street) until you reach Saint Marks Place. Turn left on Saint Marks Place and walk west until you reach the next destination (between Second and Third Avenues).\n15. Former The Dom, 23 Saint Marks Place (now Grand Sichuan Restaurant)\nThis site was formerly home to The Dom, a very popular Beat nightclub. In 1966, Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey performed here with The Velvet Underground for the first time. This group, among others, performed here with light shows. The club\u2018s name changed to The Electric Circus, which closed after a small bomb injured several people there in March 1970.\nTurn around and walk east on Saint Marks Place until you reach Second Avenue. Cross Saint Marks Place; the next destination is on the southwest corner of Saint Marks Place and Second Avenue.\n16. Gem Spa, 131 Second Avenue\nGem Spa, still in its original location, sold newspapers and magazines to many in the area\u2014including Ginsberg, who references it in his poem \u201cRain-Wet Asphalt Heat, Garbage Curbed Cans Overflowing.\u201d Over time, it has attained the status of an East Village icon.\nContinue walking south on Second Avenue until you reach East Seventh Street. Cross East Seventh Street; the next destination is on the southwest corner of East Seventh Street and Second Avenue.\n17. Former Kiev Restaurant, 117 Second Avenue\nGinsberg frequented what was once Kiev Restaurant with friends, including Philip Glass and Robert Frank. He references it in his 1986 poem \u201cHard Labor.\u201d\nContinue walking south on Second Avenue for four blocks until you reach East Third Street. Cross East Third Street, then cross Second Avenue. Walk west on East Third Street (on the south side of the street) for one block until you reach First Avenue. Turn right and walk a few steps to the next destination.\n18. Bill Keck/Norman Mailer\u2019s apartment, 41 First Avenue\nBill Keck and Norman Mailer once lived in this apartment building. Kerouac and Ginsberg stayed at Bill Keck\u2019s apartment here, which overlooked a cemetery referenced in \u201cHowl.\u201d Here Ginsberg tried peyote for the first time, given to him by Keck.\nYou have now completed the first half of the tour. The second half explores the East Village and Alphabet City. At this point, you may either continue or stop for the day and come back another time.\nContinue walking south on First Avenue until you reach East Second Street. Cross First Avenue and walk east on East Second Street (on the north side of the street) for a block and a half past Avenue A to the next destination.\n19. 170 East Second Street\nGinsberg lived in this apartment building from 1958 to 1961 with Peter Orlovsky, his lifelong partner. Ginsberg\u2019s celebrated poem Kaddish, which he dedicated to his mother Naomi after her death, may have been written in this building, which was located close to the first place she lived in New York after emigrating from Russia. Ginsberg and Orlovsky paid $60 per month for their four rooms. Herbert Huncke, Bob Kaufman, and Elise Cowen also lived in the building.\nContinue walking east on East Second Street for a block and a half until you reach Avenue C. Cross Avenue C and turn left. Walk north on Avenue C for three blocks until you reach East Fifth Street. Turn right at East Fifth Street to arrive at your destination.\nGinsberg and Orlovsky lived here in apartment #5A from 1964 to 1965 after returning from their trip to India, where Ginsberg had sought spiritual guidance and met with many holy men. They paid $35 per month for three rooms with a view of the Wall Street skyline. Gregory Corso and Julius Orlovsky (Peter\u2019s brother) also lived in the building for a time. In this apartment, Ginsberg wrote the screenplay version of Kaddish with Robert Frank and took his last photographs of Kerouac.\nTurn around and walk west to Avenue C. Cross Avenue C and turn right, crossing East Fifth Street. Walk north two blocks to East Seventh Street and turn left. Walk half a block west on East Seventh Street to arrive at the next destination.\n21. 206 East Seventh Street\nFrom 1952 to 1953, Ginsberg lived with William S. Burroughs on the third floor of this building. Burroughs was infatuated with Ginsberg, and they were lovers for a time. After Ginsberg broke things off, Burroughs moved to Tangier, where he remained for the next fifteen years. Ginsberg took some of his best-known photographs of the Beats in this apartment, on the building\u2019s roof, and on the fire escape. After living here, Ginsberg traveled through Mexico and moved to San Francisco (where he wrote \u201cHowl\u201d), then traveled to Morocco and around Europe before settling in Paris (where he stayed for some time). During his stay in San Francisco, he met Peter Orlovsky, a young artist\u2019s model. They became partners for life and traveled together before moving back to New York.\nContinue walking west on East Seventh Street for a block and a half until you reach Avenue A. This corner is the next destination.\n22. Leshko\u2019s Restaurant, Seventh Street and Avenue A\nLeshko\u2019s Restaurant, no longer extant, was frequented by Ginsberg, who described it as \u201ccheap\u201d and \u201cpopular\u201d and lived down the street.\nCross East Seventh Street and walk north to the next intersection, Avenue A and Saint Marks Place, the next destination.\n23. Avenue A and Saint Marks Place\nIt was at this intersection that Ginsberg photographed \u201cthe first shopping cart street prophet I\u2019d directly noticed.\u201d Ginsberg and his friends spent time walking around this neighborhood, especially in 1952\u201353 when he lived nearby.\nTurn around, this is Tompkins Square Park. Explore the park.\nTompkins Square Park was a popular hangout for the Beats. Ginsberg came here often with friends, and the park was the site of social and political events, such as the 1988 Tompkins Square riots, which Ginsberg witnessed. The well-known photograph of Kerouac posing in front of the statue of Congressman Samuel Cox was taken on East Seventh Street after a visit to Ginsberg\u2019s nearby apartment\u2014Ginsberg captioned it: \u201cJack Kerouac wandering along East Seventh Street after visiting Burroughs at our pad, passing statue of Congressman Samuel \u2018Sunset\u2019 Cox, \u2018The Letter Carrier\u2019s Friend\u2019 in Tompkins Square toward corner of Avenue A, Lower East Side. He\u2019s making a Dostoevsky mad-face or Russian basso be-bop Om, then involved with The Subterraneans, just walking around the neighborhood, pencils and notebook in the wool shirt-pocket, Manhattan Fall 1953.\u201d Tompkins Square Park is now the site of the Howl Festival\u2014a yearly event, named for Ginsberg\u2019s epic poem, that celebrates local artists and writers.\nExit the park and walk to the corner of the park at Avenue B and East Tenth Street (the park\u2019s northeast corner). Cross Avenue B and East Tenth Street to walk east on East Tenth Street for half a block to reach the next destination.\n25. Former Peace Eye Bookstore, 383 East Tenth Street\nOpened by Ed Sanders in 1964, Peace Eye Bookstore was a second home to the Beats. It was frequented by poets, musicians, and activists. Sanders recalled: \u201cThe bookstore became pretty famous. It was the stopping off point for all visiting librarians and professors because I had a lot of well-known writers hanging out there\u2014William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg.\u201d[1] The shop not only played host to writers but also sold \u201cliterary curiosities,\u201d including pubic hair from sixteen poets, Ginsberg\u2019s cold-cream jars, and hairs from his beard. The shop was raided by the police on January 2, 1966, under the pretense of responding to a burglary. Sanders was charged with selling lewd and obscene prints and literature, and although the case was dismissed, the confiscated items were never returned, and he was effectively forced out of business.\nContinue walking east on East Tenth Street past Avenue C (Loisaida Avenue) until you arrive at the next destination (just before Avenue D).\n26. 408 East Tenth Street\nPeter Orlovsky found this apartment after his and Ginsberg\u2019s home at 704 East Fifth Street was condemned. They lived here from 1965 to 1975, during which time Ginsberg began receiving increased international attention for his poetry and political activism\u2014 protesting the Vietnam War, fighting censorship, and advocating for the liberalization of drug laws. He wrote many poems in their apartment here, #4C, including Mugging, which referenced an incident in which Ginsberg was set upon by neighborhood kids who took his money and watch but left his valuable manuscripts.\nTurn around and walk back, moving west on East Tenth Street until you reach Avenue C. Cross Avenue C, then turn right and walk to East Eleventh Street. Walk two blocks west on East Eleventh Street until you reach Avenue A. Cross East Eleventh Street to reach the next destination, at the northeast corner of Avenue A and Eleventh Street.\n27. Paradise Alley, northeast corner of Avenue A and Eleventh Street\nKerouac\u2019s girlfriend Alene Lee lived in the building that once stood on this now-vacant lot. She served as the model for Mardou Fox in Kerouac\u2019s The Subterraneans. He referred to Lee\u2019s building with a courtyard as \u201cHeavenly Lane.\u201d\nCross Avenue A and turn right, walking north on Avenue A toward East Twelfth Street. Cross East Twelfth St and turn left. Walk half a block west on East Twelfth Street to arrive at the destination.\n28. 437 East Twelfth Street\nGinsberg lived here from 1975 to 1996, owning three apartments in the building: one to work in, one to live in, and one to sublet to friends and family. He wrote many poems here over his twenty year stay, including \u201cIn My Kitchen In New York\u201d and \u201cThe Charnel Ground.\u201d Ginsberg\u2019s partner Peter Orlovsky kept the place until 2009; one year later it was put on the market, with Ginsberg\u2019s former ownership touted as a selling point. Opposite this apartment stands the Roman Catholic Church of Mary Help of Christians (now closed), which Ginsberg references in many poems including \u201cLove Returned\u201d and \u201cFourth Floor, Dawn, Up All Night Writing Letters.\u201d\nContinue walking west on East Twelfth Street to First Avenue. Turn right on First Avenue and walk to East Fourth Street. Turn right on East Fourth Street to arrive at the next destination.\n29. 404 East Fourteenth Street\nThis was Ginsberg\u2019s last apartment in the East Village, where he lived from 1996 until his death in 1997. He had just finished unpacking his last box when he found out he had liver cancer. Ginsberg died in his own bed here a week later, with friends and family close by.\nYou have reached the end of the tour.\nFor exploring other locations steeped in Beat history, we highly recommend Bill Morgan\u2019s book The Beat Generation in New York: A Walking Tour of Jack Kerouac\u2019s City (San Francisco: City Lights Books, 1997), upon which we relied heavily in compiling this tour. In addition to highlighting other Beat sites in Greenwich Village and the East Village, Morgan ventures uptown to Chelsea, Times Square, Rockefeller Center, and Ginsberg\u2019s alma mater, Columbia University, as well as to places in the Bronx, Queens, and Yonkers.\n[1] Daniel Maurer, \u201cThe Day: Chuck Schumer on Avenue C, and 13 Other Morning Reads,\u201d The Local: East Village (blog produced by the NYU Arthur L.

        "raw_content": "About eAlchemy:\nChris Farkas, Founder\nAfter 12 years in supply chain management, Chris Farkas was ready to go out on his own. In 2009, he started eAlchemy, a software development consultancy that\u2019s focused on building business intelligence and decision support tools for operations and supply chains.\n\u201cOur whole business is founded on the idea of helping people,\u201d Chris says. \u201cI\u2019m really proud that we can give love and support to hard-working supply chain operations teams.\u201d Business has grown 400 percent over the past three years and they expect to break $2 million in revenue next year.\nChris has also slowly expanded eAlchemy\u2019s team to 11 employees and several contractors. \u201cWe\u2019re building a business that has a great culture and is a great place to work,\u201d he explains. \u201cI\u2019ve been able to employ people who are typically undervalued by the employment marketplace; I\u2019m happy to hire people who have so much potential.\u201d\nThe challenge of adding employees\nLike many small business owners, Chris found that eAlchemy\u2019s operations became more of a challenge as he expanded beyond his initial team of one. \u201cI\u2019ve found that people who start businesses are typically technicians \u2014 people with deep subject matter expertise,\u201d he says. \u201cThen, you have to move from being a technician to becoming a business person. There are so many different things to manage and stay on top of.\u201d\nFor Chris, that meant shifting his focus from being a software developer who only had clients to think about, to someone who was worried about legal, payroll, contractors, and taxes. \u201cAll these things became more substantial components of my daily work, and the more time they take, the less I can focus on my core business.\u201d That\u2019s why he describes the move to Gusto as a huge win. \u201cIt\u2019s like having in-house payroll,\u201d he explains. \u201cWith my previous provider, Intuit Payroll, I had to handle all my own filings, which was a massive hassle. Gusto does it for me; I don\u2019t need to worry about it.\u201d\nIt\u2019s like having in-house payroll...Gusto does it for me; I don\u2019t need to worry about it.\nPayroll that grows with your small business\nChris says there\u2019s a lot to love about Gusto. From its transparent pricing structure to its quick customer support, he says it\u2019s a service built to support small and growing businesses like his. \u201cSince Gusto offers both contractor and employee support, it\u2019s a one-stop shop,\u201d he explains.\nIn addition to Gusto\u2019s integration with Xero, he\u2019s particularly a fan of the net-to-gross calculator feature. This calculator makes it easy for employers to estimate the total cost of an employee \u2014 taxes and benefits included. Just enter in the employees\u2019 pay, and the calculator will tell you the gross amount to the business each pay period and year.\n\"With Gusto, 'delightful payroll' is not just a saying. I feel like you live it and turn it into a reality. You truly deliver on what you promise,\" Chris says.",

        "raw_content": "This is why we ride the local bus.\nTrue, we did it by accident; if you don't specify \"super VIP luxury\" when you buy the ticket, you'll default to an ordinary long-distance bus that stops everywhere and often does include a chicken in the aisle. It's half the price, but that doesn't make any difference to us.\nBut now I'm in a mute show-and-tell session with a curious local sitting in the aisle. My backpack's shoved under the seat, but I have a lap full of amusements for the six-hour ride, and he's examining each in turn.\nUnlike most people here, he speaks no english at all. When he picks up a novel, he examines it upside down.\nMy acquaintance isn't poor by Cambodian standards; his khaki jacket and business trousers are mismatched but clean. He's around 20, but looks the same as many of the others on the bus to me. I identify him by his red baseball cap.\nHigh technology can't be totally new to him. Still, he's fascinated by my phone, acting as a book (right-way-up this time), mp3 player (he prefers the Hilltop Hoods to London Lounge), and camera. My compass-watch also gets an inspection. He's nonplussed by my phrasebook, so I don't try to use it; I've learnt that until you know the basics of correct pronunciation, it's more harm than good. Sign language is working just fine.\nThe bus pulls over at a 'roadhouse', and we share a bag of sweet pineapple. I pick up some cashews for later at the same time. Back on the bus, I'm out of toys and out of energy.\nI'm just waking up when Red Cap takes the bag of cashews from the seat-back, rips off the top, eats a few, then walks up the aisle with the bag, still eating.\nOkaay. Massive cultural difference? Or was I just robbed? I'm not too worried, and anyway, he's gone. I go back to my book.\nWhen I pull my backpack out from under the seat at Siem Reap, my thongs, normally strapped to the outside, are missing.\nI check under the seat, where they'd have fallen, but they're not there either.\nLyn's furious, convinced that my mystery friend has stolen them. I'm not so sure.\nBut I know he took my cashews.",

        "raw_content": "Does sweating clog pores?\nEvery time you wake up and find a pimple, you have to wonder why it's there. Could it be caused by sweat? See more men's health pictures.\nIt's inevitable -- you have a big day ahead of you, and when you wake up, what's staring back at you in the mirror? A new pimple. Is it because of the summer heat and humidity? Or because of your workout? Let's find out if your sweat is ruining your complexion.\nThere are two types of sweat glands in our skin: eccrine glands and apocrine glands. Eccrine glands are located throughout our skin and secrete a saltwater fluid that helps regulate our body temperature -- most of our sweat is produced by the eccrine glands. Apocrine glands are also sweat glands, but this type is found mostly in our armpits and in the groin area. Apocrine glands produce a type of sweat that's thicker and fattier than the type produced by the eccrine glands -- it's this type of sweat that causes body odor when the bacteria living on our skin metabolize your sweat's sugary proteins.\nWe sweat through our pores, but most clogged pores aren't actually caused by the secretions from our eccrine and apocrine glands. Blockages from oil glands, or sebaceous glands, typically lead to clogged pores. Sebaceous glands are found in our skin on our face, shoulders, chest and back, and they produce oil that keeps our skin and hair moisturized and supple. Clogged pores come in two forms: whiteheads and blackheads. Both types form when a hair follicle becomes plugged with sebum, the oil produced by the sebaceous glands. Whiteheads form a small white center, hence the name. And blackheads form a small black center; the plugged pore has opened and exposed the sebum to oxygen, which turns it black. When a pore is plugged by sebum below the skin and becomes infected by bacteria, this is acne (cystic, pustular or nodular).\nWhat sweat can do, though, is cause a condition called pityrosporum folliculitis. This itchy reddish-pink rash usually appears on the chest, upper back and shoulders and gets worse after sweating or a hot shower. It's a condition caused by an overgrowth of yeast, not sebum. Yeast is a fungus that likes warm, moist places, and although it's a natural inhabitant among the bacterial flora on the surface of our skin, too much yeast inflames pores. Pityrosporum folliculitis occurs most frequently in people who live in hot and humid climates or who often engage in sweaty workouts, especially if they wear tight clothing or clothing that doesn't breathe well.\nWant to learn more about clogged pores?

Medicines, lotions, facial cleansers, and moisturizers are just some of the items found in a typical household bathroom. With the plethora of different products, each with a different use, it can be difficult to sort through it all. What if you didn\u2019t need all of that clutter? A variety of these items can easily be replaced by something many individuals already own: aloe vera. Aloe vera has a versatility many would never expect. It is cheap, as well as easy to find and use. Start reading now to learn about how aloe vera can be used.\nTreats Burns And Ailments\nOne of the most common uses for aloe vera is to treat various burns and ailments, which can be anything from a sunburn to a burn received from a stove or kitchen accident. Aloe vera works well to soothe burns because it has anti-inflammatory properties that not only reduces swelling but also decreases the overall temperature of the skin. Additionally, aloe vera can increase the moisture in the skin, which helps the skin heal from burns and other injuries in which the skin is 'broken.' In turn, there is a significant decrease in pain soon after the aloe vera is applied to the affected area.\nContinue reading to learn about the consumption benefits of aloe vera.",

        "raw_content": "Posted by Donna Florack in #family, #sitsblogging, #truckerswife, bird feeder, Birds, Challenges, Education, Family, Me, Nature, Photography, School, Squirrels, Trucker's Wife\nAdvocate, advocating, cold, crows, cruelty, freezing, hawks, relief, school district, snow, Special Education, stress, survival of the fittest, transitional program, wind chills, winter\nI\u2019ve seen a lot of cruelty this winter. It\u2019s been a long, hard, cold, cruel winter. I will be more than glad to see it go this year. I normally am a big fan, but this year it has overstayed its welcome.\nIt started out a bit early, but then it tapered itself back. In fact, we had a green Christmas this year. There was no snow for Santa and his sleigh. But since then it has made up for lost time. It has snowed and snowed and snowed. The temperatures have been brutal and below freezing. We have had several below zero days here with dangerous wind chill factors. I usually go out, resigned to my fate, and shovel out the latest snowfall so that the cars can get in and out. This year we can\u2019t keep up with it. The driveway is full of ruts and quicksand-type snow. The snow piles on either side of the drive are piled so high that we have begun reversing in so that we can try to see better when we drive back out again. Even with a backup camera and motion-sensing alarms on the car, I\u2019m terrified to back out into the road most days. The snow is heavy and hard, and it\u2019s almost impossible at this point to widen the driveway any. The front step has become a hazard as well. After my son fell on it, I got out the bag of salt and spread gobs of it everywhere. I managed to dig free a few bare spots this morning. Mother Nature has been a cruel bitch this year.\nMy beloved birdfeeder has been abandoned. More cruelty at play. Because it is so God-awful cold out, my feeder has attracted a less-than-desirable crowd this year. It started with my neighbor\u2019s favorite \u2013 the crows. Those loud and bold characters drove off the quieter birds. There have been no mourning doves this year. The cardinals have disappeared, too. The squirrels and sparrows struggled to find food after the crows decimated the offerings. It became a game to try to outsmart the crows. I tried changing the timing, but they got wise to that fast. I\u2019d open the door at odd times to find several of them perched outside, watching the house. It was creepy. The real end of the feeder has been the hawk. How I hate that awful thing. I have had at least five sparrows meet their untimely end this year. I know the hawk has to eat, too, but I wish he\u2019d grab his prize and leave. I am so sick of finding the gore outside on the freshly fallen snow that I have stopped feeding the birds altogether. It breaks my heart, but the deaths bothered me more. We have been reduced to standing outside with a small handful of peanuts which we toss to our squirrel friends one by one. I am hoping when the snow goes that the hawk does, too. It will be able to find food sources elsewhere so it can leave my birdfeeder alone.\nThis has also been a hard and challenging winter for us personally. I finally took on the school district on my son\u2019s behalf. The straw that broke that camel\u2019s back was when the administrators decided what was best for my son. For an autistic young man in a transitional program, learning independence and making adult decisions is the key thing. When administrators decide that he can only reach a certain level or should only do a certain type of job, then I get angry. After fighting them for the past 6 months, I put a stop to the entire program. He had been to a job site to look it over and see what he thought. They were proposing he switch jobs and start there (it was a retail store). He didn\u2019t like it. He had his reasons, and he very clearly and calmly stated them. I agreed with his decision. The administrators did not. I received a phone call to tell me he was starting at the retail store on the next Monday, and while they realized he didn\u2019t want to work there, THEY felt it was in his best interests. I blew up. I am a calm and non-confrontational person (in public) 99% of the time. Not that day. I yelled, and they finally listened and withdrew that proposal. Then we attended a number of other meetings, tours and events \u2013 all geared towards next year and putting my son on Medicaid and classing him as a disabled child for the rest of his adult life. Both my hubby and I disagreed with that plan. When my son and I went to the annual planning meeting before an entire committee of teachers, specialists, administrators and the school district representative, I finally had my say. In fact, I took control of the meeting before anyone in the room said their piece, and I politely withdrew my son from the entire program. We have been asking for this since September, but we just hadn\u2019t told the people who mattered. So my son will finish out the program, and in June, he\u2019ll finally be free. The transitional program seemed like a good idea when he graduated from High School in 2013, but it wasn\u2019t. It did give him a few more years to mature, and now it will be up to him (and God) where he goes in life. He will have our support 100% (like he always has). I think he learned that this year when I stood behind all of his decisions and lead the way for him when he wasn\u2019t able to get himself heard over the administrators\u2019 incessant babbling.\nYes, it will be good to see this winter and its cruelty end. I am ready for sunshine, flowers, birdsong and warm breezes.\n3 thoughts on \u201cCruel Winter\u201d\nGod save us from the do-gooders! Kudos to you and your son.\nDonna, as if you haven\u2019t had enough\u2026\u2026.I\u2019m glad you stood up for your son. Did that take a lot out of you? Have you recovered emotionally?\nIt wasn\u2019t as hard as I thought it would be, Andra. It was a huge relief to be done with them all. I got so weary of dealing with them.",

        "raw_content": "You guys, God is doing a work in my heart! Jesus is calling to me. I have been processing with Him ever since we got back from our trip to Senegal at the beginning of June. I\u2019ve been almost paralyzed; unable to write because there were just so many thoughts swirling around in my head. I still don\u2019t know exactly what He\u2019s up to, but there are some things I do know, and I\u2019d really love to share them with you.\nBefore we go any further, if you haven\u2019t read Mariama\u2019s story from our first trip a lot of what I\u2019m going to talk about just isn\u2019t going to make a lot of sense. Please take a little time and read it now. It\u2019s an incredible story and you will be blessed!\nIf this is the very first thing you\u2019ve read here on this blog this will be new information to you, but if you\u2019ve been around for a while, or follow me on social media you know \u2013 a part of my heart belongs to western Africa. Specifically, to the amazing little country of Senegal. I am head over heels in love with the people, the culture, (well, all except the bondage to Islam) the food, the landscape, all of it. I feel this irresistible pull to go back again and again. To do whatever I can to bring Jesus to those amazing people that I love so much and who need Him so desperately. (as we all do)\nMy dear friend Mariama (not her real name) is doing just that. So are my sister-in-law and her husband! What a joy it was to go along with them one afternoon to meet some of the people who have come to know Jesus as a result of Mariama\u2019s ministry.\nThe Lord Knows Those Who are His\nWe got to visit a little village where Mariama began gathering a group of women each week several years ago. She would fellowship with them, read the Bible to them, pray with them, and whatever else the Spirit led her to do. Over time the group of women grew. Lives started to change. The men of the village noticed and had to make a choice. Would they allow their wives and daughters to continue meeting with this woman who was filling their heads with information traitorous to their sacred Muslim faith?\nMiraculously they did! In fact, they liked what they were seeing in their wives and daughters and asked Mariama to come back more often. Over time, the chief of the village began meeting with Mariama to ask questions. The Gospel spread. Women were getting saved. Men were getting saved. And then, the CHIEF got saved!\nThe day we were there I got to sit and listen to Mariama read the Bible to those women. I got to watch her pray with them. I was inspired as I saw the overwhelming respect they had for my friend and the obvious impact her ministry had among them. I was humbled as one woman after another came up to me after and hugged me, thanking me for the vehicle that made it easier for Mariama to get to them. I was overcome with emotion as we were taken to the chief\u2019s home and as we sat down to have a talk he asked us to pray for him. My soul sang as I looked into the faces of dozens of children who had gathered around our vehicles as we were leaving to get a look. These precious kids are going to have a chance to hear about Jesus!\nAs we wove our way back to Mariama\u2019s apartment through the dessert that afternoon in the little 4-wheel-drive car purchased with the generous donations of people from our church and several of you as well, I struggled to keep my composure. I just kept thinking of this verse in 2 Timothy:\nBut God\u2019s truth stands firm like a foundation stone with this inscription: \u201cThe Lord knows those who are His,\u201d and \u201cAll who belong to the Lord must turn away from evil.\u201d 2 Timothy 2:19\nHere we were, in the middle of nowhere. Seriously you guys\u2026 I\u2019ve used the term \u201cthe middle of nowhere\u201d before, but I have never been more in the middle of nowhere than I was that day. Maybe we were on a road, I don\u2019t know \u2013 Mariama seemed to see a road because she would weave back and forth very intentionally as if following a distinctly marked out path, but all I saw was sand and rocks and thistles and every now and then some goats, and then more and more sand. In every direction. As far as I could see. It all looked exactly the same to me.\nAnyhow\u2026 here we were, in the middle of nowhere, with a people deeply entrenched in a Muslim culture that has almost no tolerance for those preaching the name of Jesus Christ. There was absolutely no chance. NONE! That the Gospel would reach those precious people.\nBut the Lord knows those who are His. Here we were, in the middle of nowhere, with a people deeply entrenched in a Muslim culture. There was absolutely no chance. NONE! That the Gospel would reach those precious people. But the Lord knows those who are His! Click To Tweet\nHe came after them like a shepherd searching for His scattered sheep. Praise His holy Name!\nWhen One Person Says Yes\nYou know, the Bible says that if we refuse to proclaim the Name of Jesus, the very rocks will cry out in testimony to His Lordship. Those brothers and sisters in that village belonged to God and He would have gotten them no matter what. But what He decided to use was one woman.\nOne woman who had every reason to live her life too damaged to do anything for Him. One woman who has faced more pain and suffering because of her faith than anyone I\u2019ve ever met. One woman who just says yes. Again and again. She lives her life saying yes to Jesus.\nThe enemy has thrown everything he can at her. She\u2019s been beaten and abused. She\u2019s lost her family and her children. She\u2019s been betrayed by brothers and sisters in Christ. She\u2019s had the resources she used to carry the Gospel to people in need taken away. You name it, she\u2019s probably faced it. And yet,\nSHE CAN NOT BE STOPPED!!!!!!!!\nBecause she isn\u2019t doing any of it in her own strength. She is relying on the Lord God of Heaven\u2019s Armies to carry out the work He\u2019s called her to do. She simply answers yes, and steps out again and again in obedience. Oh how I want to live my life like she does! Don\u2019t you? When we live our lives in God's strength, stepping out in obedience again and again, the enemy will throw everything he's got at us, but what God has ordained CAN NOT BE STOPPED!!! Click To Tweet\nHave You Come to the End of Yourself? Jesus is Calling.\nFriends, there is something I\u2019ve learned in the last year and a half: The best way to heal from any overwhelming pain is to step outside of ourselves and allow God to use us!\nThere is a song called, \u201cOh Come to the Alter\u201d and it contains these lines:\n\u201cHave you come to the end of Yourself? Do you thirst for a drink from the well?\nJesus is calling.\nTake your sorrows and trade them for joy. From the ashes a new life is born.\nI\u2019m here to tell you, it\u2019s so true! He IS calling! If you find yourself with an ache that just won\u2019t heal, He\u2019s calling! If you can\u2019t imagine a day when you\u2019ll be able to think about anything other than your pain, He\u2019s calling!\nYou weren\u2019t created to stay in this place. You weren\u2019t meant to wallow in your own troubles. They are real. I\u2019m not taking that away from you. Believe me, I get it. I\u2019ve been there. I AM there. Life hurts. But friend, you\u2019re not the only one who\u2019s hurting! There are people all over this world in unimaginable situations and they need Jesus!\nWhat if you\u2019re the one He wants to take it to them?\nAre you willing? Will you be like Mariama and answer yes? I sure want to!\nHonestly, when it comes to Senegal, I\u2019m still not sure what that looks like. I would love to see women partnered with Mariama through this ministry at some point down the road\u2026 but God hasn\u2019t shown me how to do that just yet.\nPerhaps you already know what God is asking of you. If that\u2019s the case, just do it! Does He want you to start a support group at your church? Do it! Does He want you to lead a Bible Study? Do it! Does He want you to start a blog, or write a book? Do it friend!\nBut if you feel a tugging on your heart as you read this, but you\u2019re just not sure what it means, then can I ask you to partner with me and my love? Will you begin to pray every day that God will open doors according to His will, and will you ask Him how He might want you to be involved?\nMay we be women like Mariama! When we see the fields ripe for harvest, may we each turn to our Lord and cry out with all our hearts, \u201cHere am I. Send me!\u201d\n*How about you? What do you know God is asking you to do for Him moving forward? I\u2019d love to hear about it in the comments below!\n**If you were blessed by this article, please save and share it on social media.

I know the awe you were feeling because I felt it when we went on a mission trip to Brazil several years back! Beautiful people hungry for Jesus! Bless you for going to the ends of the earth with the Gospel Message!! Love you! \u2764\nThat\u2019s awesome Donna! I grew up in Brazil until I was about 8. My parents were missionaries there. Beautiful people hungry for Jesus is right! I miss it there too.\nSuch a beautiful story. I tweeted it so others could read it. I feel a tug often from the Lord, but I have also had to learn to wait on His timing!\nIt\u2019s so hard to wait isn\u2019t it? But I have found there is no sense in pushing open a door He has not opened. Nothing there but trouble! And so, I wait.\nBeautiful post Esther!! Love the encouragement and the inspiration you offer through your story. Very meaningful!\nI had to back up and read the two articles about Mariama. Blessings to her! What a beautiful story you\u2019ve been invited into friend. Do keep us updated. I want to be that available to our Savior as well.\nShe is SUCH an inspiration! I wish everyone could be her friend. She just makes you want to be better. More obedient. Completely surrendered to and dependent upon the Lord! I love her!\nDiana | Diana\u2019s Diaries\nI know a couple who are serving the Lord in Senegal . Their testimony about the people over there aches and warms my soul.\nI love the encouragement you received there through Mariama (I love her name though)\nWow, awesome!

        "raw_content": "When the Phrase \u201cI told you so\u201d Really Works\nAugust 30, 2013 in Uncategorized | Tags: argument, grace, Heavenly Father, I told you so, jesus christ, love, promises kept\n\u201cThese are the words which I spoke to you while I was with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning me.\u201d Luke 23:44\nIt can be one the most dreaded phrases that we use with each other. You have had a disagreement with someone. You might have even argued; AND, initially it seemed you won. They other person, acquiesced, they gave in or they gave up and said \u201cyou win\u201d. Here\u2019s the thing, they didn\u2019t end up agreeing. Secretly or maybe not so secretly they let you know that they don\u2019t think your way is going to work. Then a truly terrible thing happens. They were RIGHT!!!!!!! Whatever horrible outcome happened that they predicted would happen if your plan was followed; actually happened. Or the outcome you predicted was going to happen failed miserably, again, just as they predicted. So you\u2019re hoping against hope that you\u2019re not going to see them for a little while. You hope that they have gone to live in a cave and are not aware that the outcome they thought would happen has actually happened. BUT NO! There they are. Standing there smug with a sly grin on their faces. They draw in a deep breath and you hear those four stinging words come out of their mouth that you can\u2019t refute because they are true: \u201cI told you so!\u201d And all you can do is stand there and take it. (Do you get the sense this has happened to me before?)\nIs the meaning behind the phrase just a simple reminder that they had predicted the inevitable outcome? Hardly. There are several aspects to this. First not only was your argument wrong, but you were wrong to make that argument in the first place. Second, you weren\u2019t listening well enough. If you had you would have seen the correctness in their argument and would have gone along with it. And Finally, in the future you should not argue against the other person and should gladly go along with their viewpoint because they are going to be correct in the future and if you don\u2019t go along, they will have ample opportunity to say: \u201cI told you so again!\u201d (Please believe me this is just not a post about not liking that phrase!)\nJesus uses a phrase close to \u201cI told you so\u201d\u2026..\u201d in the phrase: \u201cThese are words that I spoke to you while I was with you\u2026..\u201d but His purpose behind the phrase is vastly different then the purpose we use the phrase for. In this part of Luke, Jesus has just appeared to His Disciples who were gathered behind locked doors, for the first time. They marvel and are scared to see him. They know who He is but are not sure what He is. In other words, they think He might be a spirit or some other kind of unearthly manifestation. He invites them to touch Him and He eats with them to show that He is a very physical, living, risen person. He then explains how he had told them that He would be arrested and treated horribly; that He would be killed and most importantly, He would rise again from the dead, as a living, breathing person. He is not chiding them or trying to make them feel bad. He did not have to try and show them His superiority. His very presence was easily enough to show that. No, this was the other side of the phrase that He used very often: \u201cI tell you this before it happens so that when it happens you may believe\u2026\u2026..\u201d\nJesus Christ is saying to them and saying to us: \u201cSee, remember that I told you this was going to happen and it did happen just as I said and My Father had said through others,that it was going to happen. So believe! Believe not only in this but, because you have seen with your own eyes and heard with your own ears the truth of which I speak, then believe all that I have said and promised to you!\u201d\nJesus Christ said and promised many things: \u201cCome unto me, all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest\u201d \u201cI am the way the truth and the life\u201d \u201cFor God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish..\u201d Those are only a few of the promises that He gave. Our Heavenly Father, both through the prophets of the Old Testament and Jesus Christ, Himself, told us of the wonderful salvation that God has planned for us and the eternal life, He wants for us through Jesus Christ. Oh, by the Grace of God, may it be that we believe in Jesus Christ and come into His presence where we will hear Him say: \u201cSee I told You So! I told you I and My Father Love you and want You to be here with Us, in Love, Forever.\nOur Most Gracious and Heavenly Father, we praise You and thank You for your boundless Mercy and Love for us. That you would take the time to give to us words spoken through Your Prophets and Your Son, Jesus Christ about Your Love for us and how we are to love one another. Thank You, most Holy Father, for telling us ahead of time, of mercies and love you have in store, so that when they happen, it may strengthen our faith and belief in You. Please forgive us, Dear Father, when we doubt the message You have most graciously supplied to us and Pour Out Your Spirit that we may be restored. That knowing that You have told us in advance of the glory to come, we might live a life of Praise to Your Most Holy Name. We pray this in the name of the one who told us so many great and marvelous things; Jesus Christ. Amen\n\u00ab OK Lord, What Do I Do Now?\nThe Fundamental Question \u00bb",

Johnson, Jr. June 15, 2016 TurntablesTurntables\nUp NextRega Planar 2 Turntable Review\nFluance utilized KickStarter to build a turntable with cartridge and built-in phono preamplifier that is priced below the competition and which represents a good entry-level unit for those who are just starting their quest into the world of vinyl.\nFluance, a company that offers speakers, both wired and wireless, recently began marketing turntables whose engineering was funded by KickStarter.\nThe RT81 is now available (June, 2016). At $249.99, it is an amazing value. It comes with a cartridge pre-mounted in the headshell and a built-in phono preamplifier. It is an entry-level turntable, aimed at the consumer who is beginning to purchase LPs.\nThe base of the RT81 has real walnut veneer with a high gloss finish that is truly beautiful.\nFluance RT81 Turntable with Cartridge and Phono Preamplifier\nAmazing price for what you get\nPre-mounted cartridge and pre-aligned tone arm\nBeautiful real walnut veneer with high gloss surface\nVinyl has re-emerged as a major force in the world of music. Some companies are reporting huge increases in the sales of LPs compared to last year, and the market was already incredible. Many musicians are making sure that the production of an LP is part of their contract, with the regular production of a CD.\nFLUANCE RT81 TURNTABLE WITH CARTRIDGE AND PHONO PREAMPLIFIER REVIEW SPECIFICATIONS\nTurntable with Cartridge Pre-mounted in the Headshell and Tonearm Pre-aligned; Built-in Phono Preamplifier\n33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM\nDC motor and belt\nAudio Technica AT95E, MM\nSTYLUS:\n0.4 \u00d7 0.7mil Bonded Elliptical Diamond\nTRACKING FORCE:\nAluminum, Static Balanced, S-Type, Pivot Bearing\nANTI-SKATE ADJUSTMENT:\n47 kOhms/100 pF\n60 dB or Greater\nPHONO OUTPUT:\nDUST COVER:\n5.5\u201d H x 16.5\u201d W x 13.75\u201d D\nFluance, RT81, Turntables, Cartridges, Tonearms, Phono Preamplifiers\nThe RT81 is an entry-level product. It is not designed to compete with the ultra-high-end turntables that cost thousands of dollars. It is designed for consumers who are wanting to start purchasing vinyl. Down the road, maybe, you might purchase one of those turntables in the multi-thousand-dollar range.\nHowever, a consumer can be an audiophile, having equipment at any range in price. The components do not have to be expensive in order to enjoy the wonders of LPs.\nTurntables are analog as compared to CDs, and the sound is distinct, and certainly pleasurable. I found this to be true with the RT81 even though my reference turntable (VPI HR-X: Vinyl vs. CD \u2013 A Running Commentary \u2013 Parts 1 \u2013 5), cartridge (Sumiko Blackbird: Vinyl vs. CD \u2013 A Running Commentary \u2013 Parts 1 \u2013 5), and phono preamplifier (Manley Labs Steelhead: Vinyl vs. CD \u2013 A Running Commentary \u2013 Parts 6 \u2013 9) represent a $22,000 investment.\nThe RT81 has a lot in common with much more expensive turntables, and actually, I was shocked at how many features it has. For example, the platter, which is aluminum with a rubber disc to separate the LP from the metal platter, is belt-driven, which is generally considered to be the best way to isolate the motor from the platter.\nThe tonearm is also aluminum, with a nice pivot. There is also an anti-skate adjustment, which counter-acts the tendency for the cartridge to move inward towards the center of the LP.\nThe rear panel of the RT81 allows you to use either the phono preamplifier output or the cartridge output if you already have a phono preamplifier. It also lets you to select the automatic turn off that occurs when the LP is finished playing.\nAlthough there are numerous other tonearm adjustments, Fluance has pre-adjusted most of them for you.\nThe included cartridge is already mounted in its headshell, but it is packed separately. You insert the headshell into the front of the tonearm socket and lock it into position using a ring that is in between the headshell and the front of the tonearm.\nI used the RT81 in the two-channel lab (Lab 3), which has a Balanced Audio VK5i tube preamplifier, Balanced Audio VK-75SE tube power amplifier, and Magnepan 20.7 Planar Magnetic full-range speakers.\nSince the RT81 has a built-in phono preamplifier, I simply used one of the standard inputs on the VK5i. Although the RT81\u2019s phono preamplifier is not in the same class as my reference $8,000 Manley Labs Steelhead phono preamplifier, it is sufficient in an entry-level turntable, and theoretically, it is advantageous for the phono preamplifier to be electrically connected in the turntable rather than having to use RCA plugs and jacks with the cable that normally connects the cartridge output on a turntable to the input on the separate phono preamplifier.\nI checked the alignment of the arm, and it was spot on, except for the azimuth (see below), which is adjustable.\nAs seen in a previously published article: Vinyl vs. CD \u2013 A Running Commentary \u2013 Parts 1 \u2013 5, there are a number of alignments that need to be performed when setting up a turntable.\nFirst is the Tracking Force. Please take a look at the link above, which takes you to our article that discusses all the setup procedures.\nThe RT81 has an adjustment for tracking force, which involves placing the counter-weight on the rear end of the tonearm, pushing it forward (towards the cartridge) until it clicks into a detent (groove), then turning the counter-weight so that the arm \u201cfloats\u201d above the platter, so that the tonearm does not move up or down. Hold the tonearm between two fingers, so that it does not fly upward or accidentally fall onto the platter.\nThen, you lock the tonearm into its resting position. You turn a dial that is in front of the counterweight to 0, followed by turning the entire counter-weight counter-clockwise to \u201c2\u201d. That sets the tracking force to 2 grams.\nBelow are some photos showing the counter-weight dial at 0 and at 2.\nI think it is important to always measure the tracking force, rather than depending entirely on a dial, because it is a critical part of proper cartridge function. An inexpensive gauge can be purchased on the Internet. Just Google \u201cPhono Cartridge Tracking Force Gauge\u201d, and you will have many to select from. If you are getting into vinyl, you will want to have a gauge to confirm the proper tracking force. You can purchase an inexpensive mechanical tracking force gauge ($25) or a digital gauge (about $80). Tracking force gauges are a good investment, especially if you eventually get an expensive turntable.\nI measured the tracking force after setting the counter-weight to 2 grams, using a Clearaudio mechanical tracking force gauge, and it was 2 grams, so turning the counter-weight to 2 was accurate.\nHere is a photo of the tonearm pivot. At the bottom right on the pivot platform is a small dial, which indicates the anti-skating force. You set this to the same number as the tracking force, which in this case, is 2 grams.\nAlso, there is a small lever that you can see on the pivot platform which keeps the tonearm above the LP. When you are ready to set the stylus into the lead-in grooves of an LP, you place the stylus above the grooves, holding it carefully, then release the lever by pushing it towards the front. At that point, you set the stylus into the lead-in grooves. You can raise the tonearm at the end of playing an LP by putting the lever back into its vertical position, and then placing the tonearm back in its resting place on the pivot platform.\nSecondly, the Vertical Tracking Angle (VTA) is the tilt of the tonearm as the cartridge stylus is in the groove of an LP.\nHere is a photo that shows the VTA of the RT81 is excellent. Notice that the space between the body of the tonearm (the aluminum tube, not including the headshell) and LP is constant.\nThird, the Azimuth refers to having the cartridge not tilted to the left or right, i.e., when looking at the front of the cartridge, not having the left side closer or farther from the surface of the LP than the right side. Shown below is a photo of the front of the cartridge on the RT81, illustrating that the azimuth is properly set by the factory.\nFourth, the Horizontal Tracking Angle, also known as the Zenith, is set by adjusting the mounting screws that hold the cartridge in the headshell so that the cartridge is perpendicular to a line drawn from the center hole of the LP to the outside edge, and a line drawn through the body of the cartridge (front-to-rear) as the stylus is in the groove.\nIn the diagram shown below, the red line indicates proper alignment of the cartridge in an LP groove, with the line being the front-to-rear axis of the cartridge, perpendicular to the line drawn from the center of hole in the LP, and tangential to the circular LP groove. The two stereo channels, located at opposite 45 degree angles beneath the horizontal plane of the LP, would be tracked correctly by the cartridge stylus. The blue line indicates improper cartridge alignment, and is non-tangential. In this case, the stylus would not be tracking the two stereo channels correctly. Tangential means that a line that intersects a circle only intersects it one time if the line is extended in both directions. You can see that if the red line is extended, it would not intersect the circle a second time, while the blue line would intersect it a second time as shown below.\nBecause the cartridge moves in an arc, the best that can be done is to have it exactly line up in two points across that arc. The rest of the time, it will be just a bit off. The reason this is important is that with the right channel on the outside edge of the groove and the left channel on the inside edge, if the cartridge is not tangential to the LP groove, the stylus will bleed information between the channels. Increased distortion also results.\nFor this measurement, I used the MoFi Geo-Disc (about $45). A photo of the factory alignment is shown below. You can see that the cartridge headshell is not perfectly aligned, with the two screws holding the cartridge in the center of the two oval holes through which they attach to the cartridge. This implies that the cartridge is also not aligned either.\nIt is fortunate that this is one adjustment that can be changed on the RT81 by the user, whereas most of the others, such as the vertical tracking angle and azimuth, are not. So, I would suggest loossening the screws and twisting the cartridge so that it is slightly more to the right side (do this at your own risk).\nYou can also purchase the Geo-Disc if you want a more accurate measurement of the cartridge\u2019s horizontal tracking angle, and you can change this, and then check the change with the Geo-Disc (there are also other, less expensive devices on the market for measuring the horizontal tracking angle).\nAnother option for setting the horizontal tracking angle is that you can draw a straight line on a piece of paper, using a pen with a fine point, then punch a hole at the end the line (the end at the center of the paper) for the LP spindle, mark the line with a dot at 4-23/32\u2033 from the center of the spindle hole, place the paper on the turntable, and put the stylus on the dot. Then, adjust the cartridge so that its front-to-rear axis is perpendicular to the line that you drew (do this at your own risk).\nHere is a photo showing the cartridge re-aligned, and you can see the small amount of adjustment that I made in offset of the two screws holding the cartridge. The bottom screw is slightly more forward than the top screw.\nI did my listening tests and bench tests with the cartridge in the factory-aligned condition, as some consumers would not want to bother re-aligning the cartridge. The sound was satisfactory without the re-alignment.\nI have many LPs, which are mostly jazz albums, re-mastered from the original analog tapes from the 1950\u2019s and 1960\u2019s. Most of them have been released at 45 rpm, rather than the original 33-1/3 rpm versions. This increases the fidelity of the sound. I played albums of both speeds as part of the listening tests.\nKind of Blue (Legacy, ALEG 80571) is the most famous classic jazz album that has ever been released. It had not only Miles Davis, who headed up the group, but also Cannonball Adderly, Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, and Wynton Kelly. It is truly a fabulous album and is available on all formats, including LP, CD, and SACD.\nAll of the tracks are excellent, but the first one, \u201cSo What\u201d, is the track that one usually hears on the radio. It sounded very good using the RT81. It didn\u2019t have the detail that my reference vinyl equipment has, but it really surprised me how much detail there was.\nTchaikovsky \u201cRomeo & Juliet\u201d\nRomeo & Juliet, by Tchaikovsky, with Charles Munch conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra, on RCA, is one of the first classical recordings I obtained (a gift from my girl friend whom I married in 1968). It\u2019s a fabulous piece, and I own it both on a re-issued LP and CD. I prefer the LP for its depth and presence, which came through nicely with the RT81.\nFor the bench test measurements, I used SpectraPLUS software and a Lynx L22 sound card.\nIt is a shame that LPs for testing (I have several test LPs) don\u2019t have tracks for the standard audio measurements we use for other audio components.\nHowever, there are LP test tracks for 1 kHz sine waves in both channels, and a cross-talk test that has a 1 kHz sine wave in one channel.\nAt 1 kHz, recorded at -14 dB, in stereo, one can see not only the harmonics, with the second harmonic being predominant, but noise from the turntable to the left of the 1 kHz sine wave, and especially at the low end of the spectrum.\nAll turntables have some sort of noise, even the really expensive ones. It\u2019s unavoidable. You get the noise from the stylus rubbing on the plastic LP, along with the music that is represented by peaks and valleys in the groove.\nHere, I measured THD alone rather than THD+N, since the noise level is high enough that it would give a false impression of distortion. The noise at the low frequencies is produced by the motor. Even though it is connected to the platter by a rubber belt, the motor is attached to the plinth (base), and vibrations are still transmitted to the turntable. However, this noise is 25 dB lower than the signal, and frankly, I could not hear it.\nFor testing cross-talk, I used a 1 kHz test signal, recorded at 0 dB, in only the left channel. You can see that a considerable amount of the signal is transferred to the right channel. This is cross-talk, which is not present on CDs (but is present to a small degree in preamplifiers and power amplifiers). The cross-talk is 20 dB lower than the test signal in the left channel, which is right on the factory specification (listed as Channel Separation).\nI did not detect any wow or flutter in the listening tests. I don\u2019t have a way of measuring it in bench testing. This is a test that would be great to have on a test LP which would be specific for the Audio Precision, and for which Audio Precision would write the test script. I am hoping that with vinyl now being a huge market, we will see more Audio Precision-friendly test LPs being produced that include not only turntable and cartridge tests that are specific for turntables and cartridges, but the same kinds of tests we run on preamplifiers and power amplifiers. I sent a large list of tests to one of the test LP suppliers, but never got a response.\nFor example, it would be nice to see a track having 60 Hz and 7 kHz on both channels for testing Intermodulation Distortion, a track having those frequencies on one channel only, and also a track having 60 Hz on one channel and 7 kHz on the other channel to test Cross-channel Intermodulation Distortion. The tests on test LPs seem to be more oriented towards engineering and designing rather than product reviews.\nFor those of you who don\u2019t know what wow and flutter are, they are basically drifts in rotational speed of the platter. Wow is drift from 1 Hz to 10 Hz, and flutter is drift above 10 Hz. I have seen reports which say that wow and flutter are audible at 0.06% and above, and others that say they are audible at 0.2% and above. People find the effects of drift at 4 Hz the most audible, and less audible when drift is below or above 4 Hz. The spectral peaks produced by wow and flutter are compounded with the peaks produced by rumble and noise that are caused by the motor, as well as noise produced by the stylus rubbing on the plastic surface where the musical tracks are located. Since wow and flutter are small peaks compared to the music and its harmonic distortion, wow and flutter would be audible only during very quiet musical passages.\nWow and flutter are generally specified as one number rather than stating the individual wow and flutter specifications. It would be nice to know both specifications and at which frequencies the wow and flutter occur.\nI did not hear anything that I could identify as wow and/or flutter in the Fluance turntable, so the frequency of the 0.2% specification may not be at 4 Hz.\nTHE FLUANCE RT81 TURNTABLE is an Excellent Value, and is a Product that is Perfect for the Budding Vinyl Consumer.\nAmazing sound for the price\nPre-aligned tonearm and cartridge\nHigher output (0.5 volts) from the phono preamplifier\nThe Fluance RT81 turntable is a very inexpensive way to start your LP collection. It is easily assembled and does not require an outboard phono preamplifier, but if your receiver has a phono input, you can compare the two and choose the one that sounds best to you.\nAt $249.99, this turntable is a good choice among a large field of turntables in the less-than-$500 category.\nThe one spec on the website that has put a lot of people off this turntable is the wow & flutter being 0.2%. This has been a really good review. Any chance you were able to measure this or have an opinion as to whether it is audible?\nI did not detect any wow or flutter in the listening tests. I don\u2019t have a way of measuring it in bench testing.\nThankyou, that was very helpful!\nI added the informatio that I put here in the comment section to the review, so that those readers who don\u2019t take advantage of the comment section will have access to what I stated about wow and flutter.\nShinri1\nNice review, but some of your nomenclature seems a bit mixed up. The tilt of the cartridge when viewed from head on, what you call the \u201clateral tracking angle,\u201d is actually normally referred to as the azimuth. Conversely, the rotation of the cartridge is the headshell when viewed from above, what you call azimuth, is normally referred to as the horizontal tracking angle, or occasionally the zenith.\nThe MoFi Geo-Disc uses the Baerwald alignment null points. Perhaps Fluance\u2019s factory alignment uses another alignment such as Loefgren B or Stevenson? Just a thought.\nOne quick tip. If you have a test record with a 3150 Hz test tone on it such as the Analog Productions Ultimate Test LP, you can use the Feickert PlatterSpeed app to test the wow and flutter.\nI do have the Analog Productions test disc, and I have seen another publication use the 3150 Hz test tone to measure wow and flutter, but I believe that the resulting spectrum is contaminated with Intermodulation Distortion. One recent turntable review published a spectrum that they claimed showed minimal wow and flutter, even though the first side bands to the fundamental frequency (3150 Hz) were only 5 dB down from the 3150 Hz peak at 0 dB. Those side bands would be very, very audible. So, I decided not to measure the wow and flutter that way. However, in future turntable reviews, we will use that test track to illustrate wow and flutter, but state that much of the spectrum is contaminated with IM Distortion.\nI\u2019m not sure if I follow exactly what you\u2019re saying, but with the PlatterSpeed app the graph you get is dominated by a 0.555Hz cyclical wow caused by the test record not being perfectly centered. Even if it looks spot on, the tiniest amount of off centeredness causes wow that swamps the speed variations of the turntable itself. This is the difference between the yellow line (raw output) and the green line, which filters out the 0.555Hz off center wow.\nThe magazine I was talking about did not use the PlatterSpeed app, so their spectrum does not have yellow lines or green lines. The spectrum only has black lines, and all they said was that the wow and flutter data were very good. Since I saw the first set of side peaks next to the fundamental peak at 3.15 kHz were only 5 dB down from the fundamental peak, I disagreed with their statement. Many of the rest of the peaks in the spectrum are intermodulation peaks in my opinion. Are you saying that the Analog Productions test disc is slightly off centered on purpose?\nCartridgesFeaturedFluancePhono PreamplifiersTone ArmsTurntables\nPrevious Articleconrad-johnson\nNext ArticleHere",

        "title": "6 Tips For Traveling To Chicago - Hotel EMC2",
        "raw_content": "6 Tips For Traveling To Chicago\nWhen traveling to Chicago, it\u2019s smart to prepare yourself beforehand. As with any large city, there\u2019s bound to be heavy traffic, crowds, and a bucket list of fun and exciting activities to choose from. When planning a trip to Chicago, it\u2019s wise to narrow down that bucket list, and book tickets to shows and reservations to trendy restaurants in advance, to save you the hassle of searching for last minute openings.\nIt\u2019s hard enough deciding how to allocate your time\u2014there\u2019s no point in wasting minutes navigating Chicago without a proper guide in place. Here are 6 tips to make your trip to Chicago both smooth and enjoyable.\nBe Smart About O\u2019Hare\nO\u2019Hare is a major airport, so it\u2019s usually pretty hectic, as there are so many flights running at all times. Between delays and security lines, it\u2019s hard to pinpoint the amount of time needed to travel to and from the airport. This uncertainty is especially high during the holidays. It\u2019s best to be safe than sorry, and leave ample time to navigate O\u2019Hare airport. Check in for updates on your flight, day of, to get a better estimate, and wear comfortable shoes. O\u2019Hare is huge, and you\u2019ll be on your feet for a while!\nChicago\u2019s weather is pretty fickle; you might experience a 60-degree change in one day! Check your predicted weather beforehand and come prepared. If it\u2019s winter, you can expect temperatures to be cold and windy, so bringing a hat, gloves, warm boots, a winter coat, and a scarf is a must. The Chicago chill will definitely get to you, if you let it. Layering clothing is a great solution for surviving a Chicago winter.\nBe A Proud Tourist\nAs a tourist, you get a free pass for experiencing all the \u201ctourist attractions\u201d that Chicago has to offer. When planning a trip to Chicago, figure out which attractions are most worth your while, so that you can get the most out of your experience. See the Art Institute of Chicago, Navy Pier, and Wrigley Field. Take a photo at the Bean in Millennium Park, and give your credit card some love along Michigan Avenue.\nIf you\u2019re not able to walk or bike to your destination, opt for the train. There\u2019s great publication transportation in Chicago, and traffic can definitely be a nightmare at times (especially during rush hour or over the weekend). Ask a Chicagoan or the concierge for advice regarding the el, as it\u2019s the easiest and fastest way to get around. It\u2019ll give you more time to explore Chicago and really appreciate the city.\nSee Performances At Local Institutions\nInstead of opting for a Broadway show (although that\u2019s always a good choice, still), browse the offerings at local theaters for performances in Chicago, such as Goodman Theatre, Steppenwolf Theater Company, Chicago Shakespeare Theater, or Second City. These theaters showcase outstanding Chicago talent that is unique and creative and really adds to a memorable, Chicago experience. Check the theaters\u2019 schedules in advance to secure tickets.\nSavor Chicago\u2019s Food Culture\nDon\u2019t rely solely on Chicago classics, like hot dogs (no ketchup) or deep-dish pizza. Chicago\u2019s food culture is exquisite, with Michelin starred restaurants and crafted cocktails to satisfy both residents and tourists, alike. Ask your concierge for dining tips, and make reservations ahead of time. Of course, if deep-dish is on your list of Chicago\u2019s best restaurants, there\u2019s no reason to deprive yourself.\nChicago is a vast and exciting city, for business and pleasure, so take advantage of your time spent there and create a travel schedule packed with high energy, good bites, and great company. If you can\u2019t squeeze in every attraction, don\u2019t worry\u2014you can always plan another trip!",

        "raw_content": "Let it be known that Seattle gets less rainfall each year than other American cities like New York or Atlanta\u2014but that doesn\u2019t stop us from appreciating a flawless raincoat.\nAt Hotel Theodore, we\u2019re big fans of the coats from Freeman Seattle, a local company that husband and wife team Scott and Brittany Freeman founded in 2010. Produced right here in Seattle, the coats use the same premium fabrics that you\u2019d find on a big-brand rain jacket, but come with hand-finished accents and care only a boutique can provide.\nWashington natives, Scott and Brittany\u2019s path to opening Freeman started with a rip in one of their own coats. \u201cScott had a vintage jacket he\u2019d picked up secondhand that he loved the fit and look of, but then it ended up with an irreparable tear along the sleeve,\u201d says Brittany. \u201cFreeman was really born out of our attempts to improve upon and replace that beloved coat. After much work, we came up with a jacket Scott was happy with,\u201d she continues. \u201cWe thought we were done, but then Scott\u2019s brother requested one and we made him another. And we\u2019ve continued to grow since then.\u201d\nAt first they both kept their full-time jobs, Brittany at the ACLU of Washington, Scott as a cabinet maker at a local design-build company. They worked evenings to see Freeman Seattle expand, with a booming online store and then, in 2014, a brick-and-mortar shop in Capitol Hill, just a few miles away from the production facility. \u201cWe met a lot of other neat brands and companies that we wanted to work with, and we also thought it would be cool to meet our customers in person,\u201d Brittany explains. \u201cBringing these two things together it made sense to open the store.\u201d\nBy then, Scott had started a second company, custom cabinetry business Major Minor, which he still runs today. Brittany stayed at the ACLU for a few more months before transitioning to Freeman full time in 2015. Together with Scott, who works at Freeman whenever he\u2019s not at Major Minor, the two custom-finish each coat, with either Scott or Brittany setting the snaps.\n\u201cProducing on this small scale helps us to stay involved in the process, which is what we love about our company,\u201d says Brittany.\nWe at Hotel Theodore love the company as well, and we\u2019ve stocked our suites with a pair of Freeman Seattle coats for guests to use during their stay. Learn more about our other Seattle Co-Conspirators here, and be sure to stop by Freeman Seattle\u2019s store in Capitol Hill!",

For others it either confirms or denies what they believed about their heritage. For example, my AncestryDNA report debunks the story passed down by my mother and her blonde-haired, blue-eyed siblings that their grandmother, who they never met, was a \u201cfull-blood Cherokee Indian.\u201d Instead, my DNA analysis shows zero percent Native American ancestry.\nOur intern Johnny Zapata thought of himself as Mexican and one-sixteenth Chinese before receiving his surprising AncestryDNA results. For starters, he is 55% Native American, which was unexpected since his skin tone is light and his family comes from Northern Mexico where higher percentages of European ancestry predominate. The test confirmed he is 6% East Asian or Chinese and 6% Italian, which solved the mystery of his great-grandmother\u2019s ancestry. She was known to be half Chinese, but no one knew if she was also half French or Italian. Looking deeper into his results, the 4% British, 2% Western European, 1% Irish, and 2% North African reveal the centuries-long migrations of Visigoth, Celtic, and Arab peoples from across Europe and the Mediterranean to the Iberian Peninsula and, then, to the Americas. Like many who do DNA testing, Johnny began to reassess his identity, as he explains, \u201cIn the United States all people from south of the border are given a blanket label, Hispanic or Latino. \u2026 The racial binary constructed in this country does not fit the reality of centuries of racial mixing that occurred in Latin America. Previously, when asked my race I would select \u2018white,\u2019 but after taking this DNA test I now proudly select Hispanic or Latino for my ethnicity and, when given the option, check three boxes for my race: white, Native American, and Asian.\u201d\nAs we worked on this issue about Houston\u2019s Latino community, it raised the question, what does Houston\u2019s DNA look like? Today a DNA test would reveal Houston is the most ethnically and culturally diverse large metropolitan region in the United States, based on the distribution of the four largest racial/ethnic groups in the population. The 2010 Census showed Houston to be approximately 33% White, 18% Black, 41% Hispanic, 7% Asian, and 1% other. But Houston\u2019s DNA has not always reflected such a diverse heritage.\nPopulated originally by Native Americans, Mexicans, and Tejanos before empresarios parceled out the land, Houston quickly became an Anglo town, developed by savvy businessmen, making it a commercial hub. By the 1840s, Germans were coming in large numbers, as were other European immigrants. The numbers of Mexicans and Tejanos remained low until the 1910s-1920s, reaching about five percent in 1930. African Americans made up almost a quarter of the population, with their numbers growing during the Great Migration and with the influx of Creoles throughout the 1920s.\nHouston\u2019s DNA, like the nation\u2019s, remained largely European due to federal laws: The Chinese Exclusion Acts of 1882, 1892, and 1902; the Immigration Act of 1924, which imposed quotas mirroring each ethnic group\u2019s representation in the population, maintained the existing racial order; and the Mexican Repatriation Act of 1930, which permitted the deportation of Mexicans\u2014even some who were U.S. citizens\u2014to relieve the stress they allegedly placed on the economy. American attitudes toward Mexicans changed during World War II. The U.S. and Mexican governments signed the Mexican Farm Labor Program Agreement, which brought in Mexican workers to fill U.S. labor shortages, but these braceros were not allowed to stay here.\nThe fortunes of hopeful emigrants changed with passage of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 that allowed people to enter the country based on new criteria, including their technical skills, family reunification, and political persecution. The law opened the way for waves of new residents who came to Houston, altering our DNA and expanding the breadth of our city\u2019s culture. Beginning in the 1970s through 2010, the number of Latinos and Asians in Houston rose dramatically, with Latinos going from 11% to 41% of the population and Asians shifting from less than 1% to 7% of the total.\nIn thinking about the people discussed in this issue, I cannot help but be grateful that our DNA is so diverse! Latinos have continuously worked for our community and families, even when they were not treated as equals. Club M\u00e9xico Bello eased the transition for immigrants and maintained their cultural traditions, which have become integral to our community at large. Yolanda Black Navarro, who served on Houston History\u2019s board, spearheaded vital civic programs and impressed on the community the power of Latino voters\u2014not to mention making Villa Arcos a mainstay of East End restaurants. Gracie Saenz paved the way for other Latinas in Houston politics and served the community through her legal work, her time on City Council, and working with numerous nonprofit organizations. Hispanic Women in Leadership equally assisted in developing leadership skills and serving as community advocates. The braceros performed demanding labor, which the country desperately needed, for the opportunity to send a little money home and the chance they might get to settle here someday.\nLatinos and people of other ethnicities are now a fundamental part of our DNA. They make us who we are as a city that proudly wears the badge of diversity and does so with a degree of inclusiveness rarely seen elsewhere. As Gracie Saenz so aptly noted, \u201cDiversity is a good thing.\u201d\nBraceros, diversity, DNA, Gracie Saenz, Hispanics, Houston, immigrants, immigration, Latinos, Mexican Americans, Mexicans, Mexico Bello, Yolanda Black Navarro",

This was the first, and as of 2017, the only time in the history of the franchise that they reached the triple-digit mark in losses. It is also the highest number of games they have lost in a season, as well. The Giants were managed by Jim Davenport, who was dismissed on September 18, after compiling a dismal 56-88 record, and Roger Craig, who guided the team to a 6-12 mark during the final 2\u00bd weeks of the season.

Their testimony led to the drug trials, which made national headlines in September 1985.Eleven players were officially suspended, but all the suspensions were commuted in exchange for fines, drug testing, and community service. The Pittsburgh drug trials are considered one of baseball's biggest all-time scandals, albeit one that was \"behind the scenes\" and did not affect play on the field.",

        "raw_content": "In politics, a big tent or catch-all party is a type of political party that seeks to attract voters from different points of view and ideologies. This is in contrast to other parties that defend a determined ideology and seek voters who adhere to that ideology and convince people towards it.\nThe centre-right National Coalition Party has been described as catch-all party supporting the interests of the urban middle classes.[1]\nThe La R\u00e9publique En Marche! party founded by President Emmanuel Macron has been described as a centrist party with a catch-all nature.[2]\nBoth the Christian Democratic Union of Germany (CDU) and Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) are considered big tent or catch-all parties, known in German as Volksparteien (\"people's parties\").[3]\nThe Indian National Congress attracted support from Indians of all classes, castes and religions opposed to the British Empire.[4]\nFine Gael and Fianna F\u00e1il are considered catch-all parties, both being supported by people from different social classes and political ideologies.[5] Both parties are however usually described as being on the centre-right and liberal conservative.\nIn Italy, the Five Star Movement led by comedian and actor Beppe Grillo has been described as a catch-all, protest party and \"post-ideological big tent\" because its supporters do not share similar policy preferences, are split on major economic and social issues and are united largely based on \"anti-establishment\" sentiments.[6] The Five Star Movement's \"successful campaign formula combined anti-establishment sentiments with an economic and political protest which extends beyond the boundaries of traditional political orientations\", yet its \"'catch-all' formula\" has limited its ability to become \"a mature, functional, effective and coherent contender for government\".[6] Forza Italia and its predecessor on the centre-right and the Democratic Party on the centre-left are considered catch-all parties, both having been formed from mergers of political parties with numerous ideological backgrounds.\nThe Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) which held power in Mexico for 71 uninterrupted years from 1929 to 2000 was founded following the Mexican Revolution. Mexican president Plutarco El\u00edas Calles founded the PRI, then known as the National Revolutionary Party, in 1929 with the intent of providing a political space in which all the surviving leaders and combatants of the Mexican Revolution could participate, and to solve the grave political crisis caused by the assassination of president-elect \u00c1lvaro Obreg\u00f3n in 1928. Throughout its nine-decade existence, the PRI has adopted a very wide array of ideologies (often determined by the President of the Republic in turn). It nationalized the petroleum industry in the 1940s and the banking industry in the 1970s. In the 1980s, the party went through reforms that shaped its current incarnation, with policies characterized as centre-right, such as the privatization of State-run companies, closer relations with the Catholic church, and embracing free-market capitalism and neoliberal policies.[7][8][9]\nThe National Regeneration Movement, founded by the current president of Mexico Andr\u00e9s Manuel L\u00f3pez Obrador, has often been described as a big tent party due to its various constituents that joined its ranks during the 2018 general elections.[10][11]\nThe centre-left Socialist Party (PS) and centre-right Social Democratic Party (PSD) have been described as catch-all parties.[12]\nWhen Gordon Brown became British Prime Minister in 2007, he invited several members from outside the Labour Party into his government. These included former CBI Director-General Digby Jones who became a Minister of State and former Liberal Democrats leader Paddy Ashdown who was offered the position of Northern Ireland Secretary (Ashdown turned down the offer).[13][14] The media often referred to Brown's ministry as \"a government of all the talents\" or simply \"Brown's big tent\".[15]\nThe Democratic Party during the New Deal coalition, formed in support of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal policies from 1930s until 1960s, was a \"big-tent\" party.[16] This coalition brought together labor unions, working-class voters, farm organizations, liberals, Southern Democrats, African Americans, urban voters and immigrants.[17][18]\nThe Blue Dog Coalition is a big-tent caucus of centrist and conservative Democrats in the House of Representatives, some being socially conservative and fiscally and economically progressive or vice versa. For a brief period following the 2006 and 2008 elections, when Democrats held a majority in the House, this caucus wielded increased influence over the party, but its power declined again after a large majority of its members were defeated or retired in the 2010 election. Its Republican counterpart is the Republican Main Street Partnership.\nIn counter to the New Deal coalition, the Republican Party was for much of its history a \"big tent\" party that encompassed a wide range of right-wing and center-right causes, including a wide range of politicians who were fiscally conservative and socially moderate or liberal and vice versa. During the 1970s and 1980s, the Republican party attracted support from wealthy suburban voters in the South and Midwest, Northeastern moderates, Western libertarians, and rural conservatives across the country. From 1968 to 1988, Republicans won five out of six presidential elections, with the only exception being a narrow loss to Democrat Jimmy Carter in 1976. The culture wars of the 1990s and the growing influence of the Christian right within the party prompted the socially moderate and liberal sections of the Republican base, particularly in the Northeast and Midwest, to begin slowly leaving the party in favor of moderate Democrats or independents. As a result, Republicans have lost the national popular vote in six out of seven presidential elections since 1992, while winning narrow Electoral College victories three times. However, moderate Republicans continued to thrive at the state level until the dawn of the 21st century.\nFollowing the 1974 Dallas Accord, the Libertarian Party embraced the big tent idea to the extent it ensured that the anarchist-capitalist views would not be excluded from the majority minarchist party.[19]\nANO 2011, Czech Republic[20][21]\nAustrian People's Party[22]\nBrazilian Democratic Movement, Brazil[23]\nChristian Democracy,[24] Italy (1943\u20131994)\nChristian Democratic Union of Germany[3][22]\nCivic Platform,[25] Poland\nDemocratic Montenegro\nDemocratic Opposition of Serbia (2000-2003)\nFianna F\u00e1il,[26][27] Republic of Ireland\nFive Star Movement, Italy\nGeorgian Dream[28]\nIndian National Congress[29]\nInstitutional Revolutionary Party, Mexico\nIslamic Iran Participation Front[30]\nJoint List, Israel\nLa R\u00e9publique En Marche!,[2][31] France\nLiberal Democratic Party,[32] Japan\nLiberal Party of Canada[33]\nMarch 8 Alliance Lebanon\nMarch 14 Alliance Lebanon\nNational Coalition Party,[1] Finland\nNational Democratic Party Egypt (1978-2011)\nNational Regeneration Movement,[34] Mexico\nNidaa Tounes Tunisia\nNur Otan, Kazakhstan\nPeople's Front for Democracy and Justice,[35] Eritrea\nProgressive Conservative Party of Canada[36]\nScottish National Party, Scotland [37][38]\nSocial Democratic Party,[12][39] Portugal\nSocial Democratic Party of Germany[3]\nSocialist Party,[12] Portugal\nSouth Tyrolean People's Party[40][41]\nUnited Russia,[42] Russia\nTogether for Yes,[43] Ireland\nAll Progressives Congress, Nigeria\nHuman Shield, Croatia\nDemocratic Unity Roundtable, Venezuela\nNew Azerbaijan Party, Azerbaijan\nArab Socialist Union Egypt (1962\u20131978)\nFreedom Party Egypt\nConference Party Egypt\nCambodian People's Party\nDemocratic Party, Italy\nCambiemos Argentina\nNational Opposition Union Nicaragua\nTogether for Yes,[44] Spain\nCameroon People's Democratic Movement\nNational Revolutionary Party Afghanistan (1974\u20131978)\nNacionalista Philippines\nCoalition for Change Philippines\nReformist Iran\nCoalition for a European Montenegro (1998\u20132016)\nWith the strength of the people Brazil (2010\u20132016)\nGeneral People's Congress Yemen\nSerbian Progressive Party[45][46]\nParty of power\n^ a b Lauri Karvonen (2014).

Though never formally organized, the coalition was sufficiently cohesive to make the Democratic Party the majority party from 1931 into the 1980s. Democrats won seven out of nine presidential contests and maintained majorities in both houses of Congress from 1932 to 1964. The divisiveness of the Civil Rights movement and the Vietnam War, the increasing segmentation of the labor force, and waning influence of unions, and the relative weakness of Democratic Party leadership are among the factors that led to the coalition's erosion in the late 1960s.\"\n^ Paul Gottfried, The conservative movement: Social movements past and present , Twayne Publishers, 1993, p. 46.\n^ Hron\u00edk, Ji\u0159\u00ed. \"Zn\u00e1me tajemstv\u00ed velk\u00e9ho \u00fasp\u011bchu Andreje Babi\u0161e\".

Official results, announced on 27 October, gave Law and Justice 235 of 460 seats (51 percent), a majority of four. PiS vice chairwoman Beata Szyd\u0142o succeeded PO leader Ewa Kopacz as Prime Minister of Poland, heading a one-party cabinet.\nIt was the first election for a national parliament in Europe since the 1993 Norwegian elections in which the two largest parties were led by a female candidate, and the second election in history (also since the 1993 Norwegian election) where more than three parties fielded female leadership candidates. It was also the first election in Poland since the restoration of full democracy in 1991 (the 1989 elections were only partially free as the Communists and their then-allies had a guaranteed majority) that a party won an absolute majority in the Sejm.\nArdent Records, often shortened to \"Ardent,\" is a Memphis record label founded by John Fry in 1959. Ardent of the 1960s and 1970s featured pop music acts and was distributed by Stax Records from 1972 until 1975. It is best remembered today for Big Star, whose first two albums, released in 1972 and 1974, helped define the style known as power pop. The label was initially an attempt by the R&B-focused Stax to move into rock music, but distribution problems prevented any releases from succeeding. Big Star became widely known through 1980s reissues and the long delayed first release of Third/Sister Lovers, recorded in 1974.\nThe label was revived in the 1990s with two divisions: Alternative Mainstream and Contemporary Christian. Former Big Star guitarist Alex Chilton released recordings on the Ardent mainstream division, which also released recordings by bands such as Spot, Jolene, Two Minutes Hate, The Idlewilds, Neighborhood Texture Jam, and Techno-Squid Eats Parliament. The mainstream division of Ardent Records was closed in the mid-1990s.\nArdent's Christian label issued its first Christian releases in 1995. Initial projects included albums from Big Tent Revival, Skillet, and Smalltown Poets. To date, Ardent Records has released more than 35 albums by artists such as Skillet, Todd Agnew, Jonah33, Smalltown Poets, Satellite Soul, Clear, All Together Separate, Brother's Keeper, Justifide, Before You Breathe, NonFiction, and Joy Whitlock. In 2005, Ardent inked a deal with INO Records, a division of Integrity Media, to distribute and market its entire roster. The label's albums are recorded at Ardent Studios in Memphis.\nBig Tent Revival is a Christian rock band formed in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1991 by Steve Wiggins. They were signed to Ardent Records who had a distribution deal with Forefront Records. They disbanded in 2000 after having released five albums, had two releases after disbanding, and reformed in 2012 after as successful crowdfunding campaign for a new album. They are best known for their songs \"Two Sets of Jones\", \"Choose Life\", and \"What Would Jesus Do?\" and were featured at the Harvest Crusades.\nCambiemos (Spanish pronunciation: [kam\u02c8bjemos]; Spanish for \"Let\u2019s change\") is an Argentine center-right big tent political coalition created in 2015. It is composed of the Republican Proposal (PRO), the Radical Civic Union (UCR), and the Civic Coalition (CC-ARI). These three parties respectively nominated Mauricio Macri, Ernesto Sanz, and Elisa Carri\u00f3 as their representatives in the August 2015 primary elections, which were held to choose which candidate would run in the 2015 presidential election on 25 October. On 9 August 2015 Mauricio Macri was elected as the candidate who would represent Cambiemos in the presidential election; on 22 November he won the presidential election.\nThe Dallas Accord was an implicit agreement made at the 1974 Libertarian National Convention to compromise between the larger minarchist and smaller anarcho-capitalist factions by adopting a platform that explicitly did not say whether it was desirable for the state to exist.The purpose of the Dallas Accord was to make the Libertarian Party of the United States a \"big tent\" that would welcome more ideologically diverse groups of people interested in reducing the size of government. Therefore, the 1974 platform, including a \"Statement of Principles,\" focused on statements arguing for getting government out of various activities, and used phrases such as \"where governments exist they must not violate the rights of any individual.\" The previous version of the Statement of Principles adopted at the party's first convention in 1972, in contrast, affirmatively endorsed the minarchist perspective with statements such as \"Since government has only one legitimate function, the protection of individual rights....\" It was agreed that the topic of anarchism would not even be on the table for discussion until a limited government was achieved.During the following years the number of anarchists in the party was estimated to have dropped by about half and more conservative-oriented and constitutionalist members joined. Denunciations of equating the Libertarian Party with anarchism have persisted throughout the party's history, from John Hospers, the party's first presidential nominee in 1972, to Judge Jim Gray, the party's 2012 nominee for Vice President.During the 2006 Libertarian National Convention delegates deleted a large portion of the very detailed platform. They added the phrase \"Government exists to protect the rights of every individual including life, liberty and property.\" This development was described as the \"Portland Massacre\" by its opponents. Some took this as meaning the Dallas Accord was dead. Delegates tried in 2008 to restore the platform, without success.\nAnarchist libertarians continue to work in the party and run for office. Anarchist philosophies of no monopolist government are, they contend, referenced implicitly in the current platform planks, one of which describes the \"right to alter or abolish government.\"\nWhether such an agreement remains in effect, and if so whether it should, or what limits it places on the party's public statements or candidates, all remain disputed. The party's Statement of Principles also states support for \"the prohibition of the initiation of physical force against others,\" and \"the prohibition of robbery, trespass, fraud, and misrepresentation.\" The platform states in its Criminal Justice plank, that \"[t]he prescribed role of government is to protect the rights of every individual including the right to life, liberty and property.\"\nDavid Cracknell\nDavid Cracknell is a former journalist in the United Kingdom. Formerly Political Editor of The Sunday Times, he is head of a public relations firm, Big Tent Communications.\nGrammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album\nThe Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album was awarded from 1991 to 2011. From 1991 to 1993 the category was awarded as Best Rock/Contemporary Gospel Album. From 2007 to 2011 it was awarded as Best Rock or Rap Gospel Album.\nThe award was discontinued from 2012 in a major overhaul of Grammy categories. From 2012, recordings in this category were shifted to either Best Contemporary Christian Music Album or Best Gospel Album categories.\nHipster hop, a portmanteau of hipster and hip hop, is a microgenre of alternative hip hop, more specifically, \"indie rock-informed hip-hop\".

All other parties are either outlawed or allowed to take only a limited and controlled participation in elections. Sometimes the term de facto one-party state is used to describe a dominant-party system that, unlike the one-party state, allows (at least nominally) democratic multiparty elections, but the existing practices or balance of political power effectively prevent the opposition from winning the elections.\nPaul Nelson (creationist)\nPaul A.

This community-in-exile of anti-communists was often divided between the liberals and the more conservative segments, with some still hoping for the restoration of the Romanov dynasty, including several claimants to the empty throne like Nicholas Romanov, Prince of Russia (1924\u20132014) living in Italy and Prince Andrew Romanov (b. 1923) in the United States and other exiles, still hopes for a true constitutional democratic republic in Russia.",

        "title": "Mail Censorship Sparks Student Protest",
        "raw_content": "The third week of February, 1976, witnessed another milestone in Ambassador College history: it's first student protest. The object of their outrage was nothing less than the officially-sanctioned censorship of personal mail.\nEarly in February, 50 introductory letters from AMBASSADOR REVIEW were sent to specific students living on the Ambassador College campus. One week later a phone survey by the REVIEW revealed that not one of the students had received his letter. After this discovery was made, the AMBASSADOR REVIEW staff sent out a second set of letters, at the same time notifying the Pasadena Postmaster of the mailing. Fortunately, this time the mail was not \"lost\". Unfortunately, however, the college mail clerk did not distribute the individually addressed envelopes. Instead, acting on orders, she placed notes in the student mail-boxes informing the students that their mail was being held for them. When they requested it, the clerk \"encouraged\" many not to accept the material. Some were upset enough by this procedural error\" to voice complaints with Dean Oehlman. Other students mailed the envelopes back unopened.\nThe college administration, seeking to protect the ideological insulation of the campus, then decided to take action against any future influx of \"dangerous\" mail. On February 1-3 the college legal department issued a memo to all students requiring their signature on a legal document. entitled \"Consent to college mail procedure\". This would give the administration the right to prohibit the delivery of any \"material deemed objectionable by the college\"; the memo continued, \"the same shall be collected, returned to sender, or otherwise disposed of.\"\nThe reaction came immediately. An estimated 300 students refused to sign the document. It was sent back to Dean Oehlman's office by the score, some with indignant comments and also a swastika or two! Even the PORTFOLIO, the official newspaper of the college, posted a copy of the memo on its office bulletin board with mocking additions made to the contents.\nOn February 26, having to postpone his trip to Egypt, President Garner Ted Armstrong conducted a lengthy meeting with the student council. The following day, after being briefed on the entire situation, he issued a personal memo to all students. This memo set up a temporary arrangement in which no mail would be censored, with the exception that \"objectionable\" material would remain in a common receptacle accessible to all who were willing to \"dig for it\". He also stated that a long term solution to \"the problem\" would be individual, numbered, private boxes. This arrangement seemed to most to be fair and a strained tranquility was restored. But, with predictable Armstrong form, Ted donned his ministerial cap and in a Sabbath sermon the next day verbally flogged the students in the name of Jesus Christ and assured them that they did have freedom at Ambassador College ... the freedom to pack their bags and leave anytime they want.\nAMBASSADOR REVIEW contacted KABC-TV about the situation. On March 11 AMBASSADOR REVIEW publishers, John Trechak and Tim Nugent were interviewed on television by Wayne Satz of KABC-Channel 7 Eyewitness News. Ambassador officials, however, refused to comment. Then, after a week of persistent phone calls by KABC, Stan Rader came forward for the cameras. He refused to allow any students to be interviewed by newsmen and categorically denied all charges.\nA few days later, when Mr. Nugent personally contacted Stan Rader, in an attempt to ensure delivery of all AMBASSADOR REVIEW material, he was informed that he would not be allowed on campus to talk to any students about their mail.\nThe latest incident in this bizarre chain of events was the errection of a nine-foot-high wall around the student mail-boxes. Students now have access to their mail only at certain restricted times during the day and then only under the watchful eye of the postal clerk, in keeping with the new international flavor of \"the Work\", Ambassador College can now boast of its own \"Berlin Wall\".",

        "raw_content": "Piecing America Together\nSara Rahbar, \u201cKurdistan Flag #5\u201d (2007) (all images courtesy the artist)\nWhile a minority of Americans are in a post-election meltdown over the browning of America, I feel compelled to admit that the part of America that is in a constant state of flux, always shifting, moving, changing, and accepting of the fact that the only things that unite Americans are a few ideas, is what I love about this place. To be American is to be dynamic, maybe even volatile, but never staid. Looking back, to borrow a Biblical allegory, is to turn into salt. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s an accident that the winning Presidential candidate\u2019s slogan this year was \u201cForward\u201d \u2014 that\u2019s the direction we expect from America, even if we\u2019re chronically disappointed.\nSara Rahbar\u2019s Flag series captures some of the energy I love about America. Her objects mine the many veins of her Iranian American cultural heritage to transform the ultimate American icon into something more personal but comforting. In the art works you can see the turmoil boiling inside the artist, nothing perfectly fits, it is a world of contrasts, whether it be colors, textures, or sensibilities, but they work, telling a patchwork story using the flag like a bulletin board.\n\u201cTexas Flowers, Flag #22\u201d (2008)\nI am most attracted to the ones in this series that make the field of stars seem a little out of place or incomplete, like \u201cKurdistan Flag #5\u201d (2007), or hard to see at first, like \u201cTrapped in Dark Night with Nowhere to Run, I Have Died a Million Times Every Night in this Bed\u201d (2010), but as equally garish as the patchwork of strips, objects, and patterns.\nRahbar seems to meditate on the flag like a monk would stare at an icon. \u201cIt represents my father and so many, many promises and hopes of tomorrow \u2026 It represents endless possibilities, escapes, and mirages \u2026 it\u2019s a very loaded image for me,\u201d Rahbar explained. \u201cYears and years of memories, experiences and attachments, and what is the work but a direct reflection of my life? What I\u2019m focusing on, and what is boiling, twisting and turning inside of me.\u201d\nIf Jasper Johns\u2019 Flag paintings are the obvious allusion, they aren\u2019t ones Rahbar knew about at first. \u201cWhen I began my Flag series I wasn\u2019t very aware or knowledgeable about Johns or art history in general \u2026 it was much latter on that I began to learn more about the art world and art history. Maybe if I had a bit more knowledge about it, I would have never done the series,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I began I was completely lost in my own emotional state, it was all very instinctive and emotional for me.\u201d\n\u201cAnd I remember how I worked on one of my first flags. I was traveling from Tehran to Kurdistan with Hossein a very dear friend of mine. He was going to work as a soundman for a film and I was going to photograph Kurdistan and try to figure out my next project and what to do with the rest of my life.\u201d\n\u201cFlag #50, A Passing Gleam\u201d (2011)\n\u201cWe lived in Kurdistan together for months, I would write, take photographs and gather random found objects and textiles that were used for donkeys and horses and sew them onto my flag. I would sit somewhere, sew for a bit, roll up the flag, put it in my backpack, and continue to take photographs, everything was on the go and very natural and in the moment. I worked to work out the turbulence that existed within me; I was healing myself and at the same time communicating an immense pain as I always am with my work. The work is a byproduct of me; emotionally and mentally, it keeps me together. I take care of it and it takes care of me.\u201d\n\u201cLooking back now, It was a very natural and instinctive thing for me to do. I didn\u2019t think about it or question it, I just picked up a flag and started to piece things together. I have this deep obsession with piecing and holding things together \u2026 maybe I\u2019m afraid things are falling apart around me and by sewing and welding things together, they will stay together \u2026 it\u2019s cathartic & very therapeutic for me.\u201d\nThat need to keep things together is central to the American experiment, namely how a people so diverse can be one \u2014 or are we fooling ourselves with some grand delusion?\n\u201cThere are things that come to mind, incidents like, \u2018Salute the flag or else\u2019 or \u2018Put the flag up or else.\u2019 It was always forceful and felt like a threat, or perhaps a test. And as time went by it became a question in my mind, questioning this obsession with the flag and ideas of nationally and this need for belonging, to something, to someone or to somewhere,\u201d Rahbar said.\n\u201cAnd then it slowly became my obsession. At first I had a great anger towards the flag, then it became a great curiosity, then an obsession. And after a while I started seeing beauty in it and it made me feel like I had some kind of a love affair with it. I couldn\u2019t stop, but I never expected to make 51 pieces. That\u2019s why I say it was like a love affair because it just went on and on and on until I was finished and complete with it. And love affairs also go on and on and on, until they just don\u2019t anymore. That\u2019s how I work on a series; I do it until I can\u2019t anymore, because I\u2019m just done with it, its instinctual, like love.\u201d\n\u201cTrapped in Dark Night with Nowhere to Run, I Have Died a Million Times Every Night in this Bed\u201d (2010)\n\u201cA Time of Anxiety\u201d (2010)\n\u201cFlag #10\u201d (2008)\n\u201cFlag #41 What Ever We had to Loose We Lost, and in a Moonless Sky We Marched\u201d (2009)\n\u201cFlag #15, With These Eyes\u201d (2008)\n\u201cFlag #1\u201d (2006)\nAmerican flagmulticulturalismSara Rahbar",

        "title": "The Struggles Of A Mixed Girl: Identity by Shanese Steele \u00b7 I Love Ancestry",
        "raw_content": "The Struggles Of A Mixed Girl: Identity by Shanese Steele (When she was 22 years old)\nWho am I? I find myself asking this question constantly, and with each passing year the answer seems to change. Being mixed or multiracial has not always been easy for me and it has been a struggle to try and find out exactly where I fit in. A recent conversation with a friend brought up some feelings that i have to admit i was to afraid to say out loud.\nThe term my friend used to describe her feelings towards identifying as an Indigenous woman was \u201cfraud.\u201d She felt as though because she did not appear to look Aboriginal and because she was not a certain percentage, that how did she have the right to call herself Aboriginal. It was as if she was reading my mind, because for so many years i had and have felt the same way. See this friend and I have very similar backgrounds; both our fathers are Trinidadian, and both of our mothers have white and Aboriginal backgrounds, more specifically Metis. I also have Venezuelan, Irish and French lineage and yet identifying as any of them feels fraudulent. While i have always loved my diversity over the years i have tried to be one of these ethnicity\u2019s more than the other.\nAt 9 years old, living and going to school in Toronto for the first time, all i wanted to do was fit in. For the first time i wasn\u2019t the odd brown girl out, and i so desperately wanted to be black. I was \u201cTrini de Bone\u201d and nothing could change that. Oh how i hated to be called white washed or portrayed as anything but black, and that\u2019s how it was until i was 15. I tried to immerse my self into the \u201cblack culture\u201d as much as i could. I listened to only soca, hip-hop and dancehall and wouldn\u2019t be caught dead listening to \u201cwhite music.\u201d I started wearing extensions and being \u201cghetto\u201d and only having black friends. Growing up without a father i didn\u2019t know that this wasn\u2019t what it meant to be black, it wasn\u2019t what it meant to be Trini. And as i looked around i didn\u2019t fit in with the other \u201cblack kids\u201d i never felt \u201cblack\u201d enough, or that i belonged.\nWhen i turned 15 i took a sudden interest in my family history and heritage. We were just finding out we had some kind of native in the family and came across some Venezuelan heritage on my fathers side. I was so excited, i had just made some hispanic friends and oh how i waned to fit in with them. So i became \u201cchickita\u201d half Trini and half Venezuelan, once again forgetting completely about the heritage on my mothers side. I loved the Latin culture, the music, the dancing and of course the boys back then. I started hanging out with mostly Spanish kids and slowly began to move away from being \u201cblack.\u201d I hated being seen as black or white, that wasn\u2019t me, wasn\u2019t who i was.\nNo matter what the \u201cfaze\u201d i never found myself wanting to be \u201cwhite\u201d i hated the idea. Even to this day i catch myself making comments like \u201ci aint white\u201d or trying to distance myself from it by saying \u201cthat\u2019s what white people do\u201d and if i do something that i perceive as white I\u2019ll apologize by saying \u201csorry, that\u2019s my white side coming out.\u201d Over the years i have questioned my distance and sometimes hatred towards my white heritage. I grew up in Milton, which use to be predominantly a white town and due to this there was alot of racism. So when i begin to contemplate my anger i wonder if it could be because at the age of 3 or 4 i was taken down to the basement of my babysitters house by the other children, stripped half naked and beaten; or maybe its due to the fact that on the first day of kindergarten i was told by another student that i couldn\u2019t play with the toys because of the color of my skin. Could it have been the bullying in elementary school when other children called me buffalo hair and ignored me at recess; or maybe the final tipping point was when my best friend in grade 3 stopped being my friend because the girls at her new school didn\u2019t think she should be friends with a black girl.\nIt wasn\u2019t really until i turned 18 that i began to get more involved with my moms side of he family. We had always been close but i had no real interest in where they came from or who they were. But the deeper i looked the more i began to love and embrace what they were, i was proud to be French, my family was the personal guards to one of the kings of France, they had been in Canada since 1506 and were among some of the first Metis families. I loved that i was Irish, i began putting the flag on everything and even got a 4 leaf clover tattoo. And oh how i loved the Aboriginal history, the stories of Aboriginal women ancestors, Cree, Ojibwe and Metis. I fell in love with the culture and the beliefs and for the first time in a long time i felt like i found who i was. Shanese Steele an Aboriginal woman.\nI remember being 15 and convinced that i was going to be attending the University of Georgia for psychology when i got older; and i remember my mother being so against it. She feared for my safety in the south and i remember saying \u201ccome on mom, its not the 60\u2019s anymore i\u2019m not going to get lynched plus i\u2019m mixed\u201d and she looked at me and said \u201d but shani when a racist person looks at you they don\u2019t see a half white girl, they don\u2019t stop hating you because you are half white, they will always see you as a young black girl.\u201d At the time i brushed it off and laughed but as i got older i realized she was right, to the rest of the world i will always be seen as black. So how do i have the right to claim anything else?\nThat very question is what brings me back to that earlier conversation with my friend. How can i identify as an Aboriginal woman if i don\u2019t look like it? if I\u2019m only a small percentage in the eyes of others? How do i have the right? its the same question i asked myself when i identified with my Hispanic heritage, with my white heritage. I mean I AM French and Irish, I AM Venezuelan, I AM Cree, Ojibwe and Metis as much as I AM Trinidadian, and yet i am always feeling like I\u2019m a fraud. Although i look black i don\u2019t feel black enough to identify as black, although i can pass as hispanic i don\u2019t feel as if I\u2019m enough, although i know so much about my Aboriginal culture and i do identify as Aboriginal i never feel like its enough and although i have a rich French and Irish heritage because i don\u2019t look \u201cwhite\u201d i feel like i will never be enough to identify. So i guess the question i am left with is will i ever be enough? and are me and my friend the only multiracial people that feel this way?\n~Shanese Steele\nTagsAfrican Native AmericanCanadaIdentityMetisPersonal StoriesSkin ToneTrinidadian",

        "raw_content": "Behind the Machines of InkJecta: Meet Chris Cashmore and Scott McBain\nDec 04, 2017 / 0 comments / By danny on Tattoos\nChris Cashmore\nInkJecta Interview\nPainfulPleasures Guests\nWhen it comes to InkJecta, two words come to mind: quality and curiosity. InkJecta\u2019s flagship machines, the Flite Nano Lite, Elite, and Titan, are known for their durability, craftmanship, and distinct look \u2014 that\u2019s why they\u2019re among the top-selling tattoo machines in the industry. But, what about the makers behind the machine? What\u2019s their story? Searching for \u201cInkJecta\u201d on the internet yields little to no information beyond listings for the products this much-admired company provides.\nPainfulPleasures was fortunate enough to host InkJecta\u2019s Company Director and co-owner Chris Cashmore, along with their Head of Global Marketing & Branding Scotty D. McBain for two days while they were in town for the Richmond Tattoo & Arts Festival. Chris Cashmore\u2019s business partner and co-owner of InkJecta, Byron Dreschler, was unable to join us for our chat to lend insight about his machines and their features. Nonetheless, we were happy to meet Chris and Scotty; it was an invaluable opportunity to show them around the PainfulPleasures facilities and to learn a little more about InkJecta\u2019s beginnings, their products, and their overall mission.\nChris Cashmore, well-known and celebrated in the industry, is an artist of approximately 36 years who speaks of his success with soft-spoken humility. From whittling a question mark tattoo into his arm at age eleven to constructing top-selling tattoo machines, the Australia-based artist has a colorful, storied history. His tattoo machine building endeavors began during his apprenticeship in New Zealand with Steve Ma Ching, a renowned Polynesian tattooist.\n\u201cI\u2019d always been making machines the whole time with Steve and things like that, so I always knew I could build machines [\u2026] I couldn\u2019t get the supplies I was after one time; it was taking, like, six months. That was an American machine I was trying to get hold of. When it turned up, I cut it to pieces straight away and thought, I can make this better, you know? In my own eyes.\u201d\nWhen asked about the first machine he ever built, Cashmore talked briefly about his first few machines in general.\n\u201c[\u2026] We used to give them away to other tattooists. They were cheaply made, but would run really well, the needle would go up and down, and that\u2019s all Steve [Ma Ching] was concerned about.\u201d\nChris Cashmore professes that an understanding of how a tattoo machine works is crucial to understanding the art of tattooing itself. It\u2019s his understanding of machine construction, his vision for what can make them better in his own eyes, and his entrepreneurial endeavors born of artistic values rather than big business aspirations that are perhaps the most important keys to his success. He continues to tattoo regularly, demonstrating his commitment to art as well as his commitment to his business. When asked what sets InkJecta\u2019s machines apart from other popular machines in the industry, Cashmore is modest in detailing some of his machines\u2019 most distinguishing features:\n\u201cWe\u2019ve got these patented torsion bars that are kind of special to us. Byron [Drechsler], he invented that. They flex to change give and you can actually turn them like a torsion bar on a car and it stiffens it up [\u2026] they\u2019re essential torsion bars. You get three of them as opposed to just one, so you can play with them and you can change the stroke of the machine [\u2026] They\u2019re balanced well; we make carbon fiber frames, we make aluminum frames, and brass frames so there\u2019s three weight differences for balance. We put big stainless steel grip covers over the grips to balance it even more if you wanna go down that road [\u2026] We really just wanted to build what we know people are gonna want to use at this time.\u201d\nWhile we would have been enthusiastic to meet Chris Cashmore\u2019s business partner Byron, it was a pleasure to meet Scotty, the InkJecta marketing and branding spokesman. Scotty's booming, enthusiastic voice sounds innately designed for radio and public speaking. Chris explained the instant friendship that formed between him, Scotty, and Byron:\n\u201c[\u2026] Scott\u2019s been in radio and TV for thirty-odd years. Byron and myself decided we were gonna put a tattoo convention on and, out of the blue, Byron said, \u2018I\u2019ve got a man who could MC the whole show and do a really good job.\u2019 [\u2026] I actually took a liking to Scott just by listening to his voice to be honest.\u201d\nIt may be considered coincidence or business partnership destiny that Scotty also performed a self-administered tattoo at the age of eleven. Whether or not it was planned by the cosmos, the camaraderie and mutual respect in the partnership speaks volumes for the integrity of the business. There was certainly an element of choice and an overall understanding of the industry that steered Scotty toward InkJecta. His knowledge of big names in the industry such as Gaston, FK Irons, and Cheyenne only bolstered his faith in InkJecta as a brand and manufacturer. Detailing his admiration and reasons for working with InkJecta, Scotty only has positive things to say:\n\u201c [\u2026] I knew the technology was that good [\u2026] to be involved with taking a product to the world and growing it to where those guys are now, keeping in mind that FK and Bishop started out about the same time that Byron and Chris did making machines, and I know where they\u2019re at now.\nI thought well, why can\u2019t we do it? Our machines are just as good [\u2026] the fact that we\u2019re in Australia means nothing, you know? We hand-assemble every machine. It\u2019s not a production line, you know, we manufacture in Australia. We don\u2019t outsource to China to manufacture.\u201d\nAside from the motivation to keep up with an ever-evolving industry, the passion for the work, and the wherewithal to be a leading competitor, it\u2019s forming relationships, making connections, and making new friends that truly drives InkJecta as a company, brand, and enterprise. Scotty gave us another kind of insight into the heart and soul of the business, indicating that InkJecta strives to never let their success make them big-headed:\n\u201c[\u2026] We\u2019re in a position where people want stock, and they will have stock. It\u2019ll be on the shelves, we\u2019ll supply in far greater numbers, and we\u2019ll be able to back that up with a marketing campaign [\u2026] but a lot more of it is gonna be through us being on the ground all over the world at conventions and actually talking to people [\u2026] that\u2019s the way you build relationships. [\u2026] We\u2019re never gonna be a big heartless, soulless corporate entity. No matter how big it gets, there will always be a human sid\u00ad\u00ade to Inkjecta. We will always be out there with the people.\u201d\nIt's this devotion to building relationships that we at PainfulPleasures admire most about InkJecta \u2014 and given their sales, quality products, and overall drive, there's much to admire. Friendship and networking within the tattoo industry are common values that make distributors like us and manufacturing enterprises like InkJecta members of the same team. It was a pleasure to play host to Chris and Scotty, not only to learn more about their story and their product (which had formerly been shrouded in mystery), but to reach out and foster relationships as well. It makes us even prouder to carry our selection of InkJecta products and machines. We look forward to their future innovations.\nOur entire transcribed interview with Chris Cashmore and Scott McBain is soon to come. Stay tuned for more insights on InkJecta\u2019s beginnings, their overall mission, and fun anecdotes.",

Iza and Creb, the old Mog-ur, grow to love her, and as Ayla learns the ways of the Clan and Iza\u2019s way of healing, most come to accept her. But the brutal and proud youth who is destined to become their next leader sees her differences as a threat to his authority.

(Nasdaq: EGRX) (\u201cEagle\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) today announced that the Company\u2019s fulvestrant formulation has not met the primary bioequivalence endpoints evaluating Eagle\u2019s formulation compared to FASLODEX\u00ae in its open label, randomized, pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety study conducted in 600 healthy female volunteers across multiple U.S. sites.\nThe Company will continue to evaluate the data, but as a result of this outcome, Eagle intends to focus on advancing the development of other products in its pipeline.\nEagle\u2019s fulvestrant product was intended to be administered at the recommended dose with one intramuscular injection instead of two high-viscosity intramuscular injections for FASLODEX, and in less time. In addition, our low-viscosity formulation does not contain castor oil, and was intended for administration with a 23-gauge needle, which is 25% thinner than the current needle required to administer FASLODEX.\n\u201cAt this time, and given the results of the fulvestrant trial, we plan to focus on other promising programs in our pipeline, including exertional heat stroke, a potential nerve agent indication and intramuscular formulation for RYANODEX, and our pemetrexed and vasopressin assets,\u201d stated Scott Tarriff, Chief Executive Officer.\nThis press release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, and other securities laws.

What do you like about working internationally?\nJazz is a music that is always influenced by everything in the given moment. I just returned from Beijing China and enjoyed learning a Chinese folk song and integrating it into the shows there. Every country has it\u2019s own special culture and music, but we also are so connected and united through music. This is special!\nI love Bobby McFerrin and loved Al Jarreau (and got to record with him on my After Blue (Joni Mitchell) album. I\u2019ve been very influenced by instrumentalists\u2014Bill Evans, Myles Davis, John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderly. I have been working the past 10 years with Hubert Laws and he is definitely a hero!\nWhat part of singing Jazz you love the best? And what do you think is your strong point as a jazz singer/performer?\nI love to interact with great musicians and I have had the honor to work with many who are the very best at what they do. I think if we can inspire each other in the moment, that is the best thing..\nHow about the project making / recording? We\u2019ve known that you\u2019re making lots of great CDs with your band (Tierney Sutton Band!!) and we love those fantastic ideas / arrangements too! Could you share your experience with your band, or project / CD making process with them?\nEach album is it\u2019s own specific thing, but I will say that my band has a very interactive process. We know each other so well that we can read each other\u2019s minds some times. Everyone feels completely invested in what we do. That is something rare.\nHow was sound tracking of \u201cSully\u201d (2016 American biographical drama film directed and produced by Clint Eastwood) experience? That was very sensational and we all enjoyed your beautiful music.\nWe had such a great time doing that project\u2014-and it was kind of like Clint Eastwood became part of the TSB! He gave his ideas and we would suggest things and improvise with the film. It was an incredible experience. Christian Jacob wrote beautiful themes and Clint also gave us a beautiful melody. It was a good experience for me to write lyrics.\nSince We know you\u2019ve taught Gretchen Parlato, Sara Gazarek, and lots of talented singers, we\u2019re interested in your teaching too! What brought you to start working as an educator? What do you like about it? And what do you care most as a teacher? And what is your goal as an educator?\nBecause I have worked with so many great singers, I always feel like my most important job is to help the singer to be themselves. Each singer is \u201cplaying \u201c a unique instrument so the ideas are different in each case. I learn so much from teaching and from my students.\nI think every musician I know has a diversity of activities\u2014-and I think everything we do is a chance for new creativity and new influences. I think if you are always open to working with new people and trying new things, you can remain very creative\u2014-you can\u2019t help it!\nI love the openness and possibilities in Jazz\u2014-and that you never know what will happen next. I would tell singers to keep and open mind and don\u2019t close any doors\u2014try everything and do your best.\nTierney Sutton Biography:\nAn 8-time Grammy nominee, Sutton has received 7 consecutive nominations for \u201cBest Jazz Vocal Album\u201d- a nomination for every project she has released for the last decade. In 2013 she released After Blue, a jazz-inspired re-imagining of the legacy of Joni Mitchell. The album received wide acclaim and was Sutton\u2019s breakout as a leader without her longtime Band and features Al Jarreau, Hubert Laws, Peter Erskine, Larry Goldings, Mark Summer, Kevin Axt, Serge Merlaud and The Turtle Island String Quartet. Sutton\u2019s \u201cAfter Blue: The Joni Mitchell Project\u201d continues to tour the world.\nWith a recording and touring history spanning over 20 years and 9 CDs, The Tierney Sutton Band, \u201cTSB\u201d has traveled a rare path. Comprised of Sutton and instrumental virtuosos Kevin Axt, Ray Brinker, Trey Henry and Christian Jacob, the band functions as a true collaborative (and legally incorporated) unit and makes all musical as well as business decisions as partners. In 2011 the TSB received a Grammy nomination for it\u2019s collaborative arranging, the only collaborative team ever to receive that honor.\nTheir discography is thematic and rich and past TSB projects have addressed: Americana (American Road, 2011) Materialism (Desire, 2009), The Pursuit of Happiness (On The Other Side, 2007), as well as the musical legacies of Bill Evans (Blue in Green, 2001) and Frank Sinatra (Dancing in The Dark, 2003). Along these same lines, the band released a brand new recording, The Sting Variations in Fall 2016. In addition to this, Christian Jacob and TSB scored the original music for Clint Eastwood\u2019s feature flim \u201cSully\u201d, starring Tom Hanks and Laura Linney. The film premiered on September 9, 2016 to critical acclaim.\nTierney has headlined in recent years at The Hollywood Bowl, Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center and Jazz At Lincoln Center. She can also be heard on film and television soundtracks including that of The Academy Award-nominated film \u201cThe Cooler\u201d as well as on television commercials (BMW, Green Giant, Yoplait Yogurt, Coke)\u3002\nWhen she is off the road, Tierney is in demand as both a producer and vocal educator. She taught for over a decade at USC\u2019s Thornton School of Music and served for 5 years as Vocal Department Head at The Los Angeles College of Music in Pasadena,CA where she created a new curriculum for vocalists of all genres. Tierney has taught and mentored some of music\u2019s finest new generation of singers including Gretchen Parlato and Sara Gazarek.\n2018.9.17(Mon) Tierney Sutton Masterclass in Tokyo 2018\nRegistration will be started from July 16th at noon in JST.\nIt is written in Japanese only but if you need any English guidance, please feel free to contact us.\nEducatorInternationalInterviewsJazz Vocal Alliance JapanPick Up!Tierney SuttonVocal Jazz\u30b8\u30e3\u30ba\u30b8\u30e3\u30ba\u30f4\u30a9\u30fc\u30ab\u30eb\u30c6\u30a3\u30a2\u30cb\u30fc\u30fb\u30b5\u30c3\u30c8\u30f3",

        "title": "The Theology of Bonhoeffer As a Theology of the Cross - END OF GOD",
        "raw_content": "In anticipation of the publication of my dissertation this summer, here is a brief, albeit nerdy, summary of the argument.\nI set out to argue that Bonhoeffer\u2019s \u201cAct and Being\u201d is a new interpretation of Luther\u2019s theology of the cross. Attention for Bonhoeffer\u2019s academic work is lacking. In addition, there is not enough attention to the Lutheran roots of Bonhoeffer\u2019s theology. My aim is not to portray a Lutheran Bonhoeffer\u2013heck, I\u2019m not even a Lutheran myself\u2013but to uncover the real genuine roots of his theology, which are deeply anchored in the theologia crucis as articulated in Luther\u2019s own theology.\nBonhoeffer nowhere says he is attempting to articulate a theology of the cross, so the way I arrive at this conclusion is through an initial comparison of Act and Being and Barth\u2019s lecture/essay Fate and Idea. The similarities in structure and conceptuality are uncanny and it is weird that this hasn\u2019t been spotted before. Since Barth openly concludes that Luther\u2019s theology of the cross is the dialectical pattern that he sees as the solution to the tension between fate/being and idea/act, it stands to reason that Bonhoeffer\u2019s own intention is to address this claim of Barth heads-on and show how it needs to be done in a way that is actually faithful to Luther.\nThis, then, is how Act and Being needs to be understood: as an attempt to overcome the dialectical tension between act and being (understood as being epistemological in nature!) in order to synthesize them in the being of Christ which is the church. In other words: no, Luther is not dialectically relating fate/being to idea/act, he is actually bringing them together.\nIn order to complete his argument within the discussions and conceptual world of his own time, Bonhoeffer exposes Barth\u2019s dialectical method as logically and ethically incoherent if not self-refuting. If Barth\u2019s method is not faithful to the idea of revelation, then what is?\nIn order to prepare the answer to that question, I first turn to a discussion of Luther\u2019s theology of the cross wondering whether Luther\u2019s theology emphasizes distance between us and God (e.g. Barth\u2019s Wholly Other God) or stresses divine presence (e.g. Bonhoeffer\u2019s Christus praesens). While the search for the \u201coriginal\u201d theology of the cross is difficult since it is involved in a hermeneutical circle as modern interpretations of the theology of the cross inform our reading of Luther, there seems to be a strong case for an emphasis on divine presence.\nTo be sure, Luther\u2019s theology is riddled with paradoxes, and his theology is marked by a deconstruction avant la lettre of the theological system of scholasticism confronting us with the aporia of the crucified Christ. Knowing God, however, has not become a problem the way it has for the modern self for whom knowledge as such is a problem. Luther doesn\u2019t have to answer Kant. And thus God is present, precisely in that mangled and tortured body of Christ, \u201chaveable\u201d and \u201cgraspable\u201d as Bonhoeffer notes. Luther makes an important connection between the body of Christ on the cross and the church which is also the body of Christ. It is this connection that Bonhoeffer takes up in his discussion of Heidegger\u2019s philosophy of being.\nBonhoeffer, who lives, like Barth, after the philosophy of Kant, needs to answer the modern problem of knowing. Bonhoeffer, unlike Barth at that point, has discovered that the problem of knowing (epistemology) is really a problem of being (ontology). So he turns to Heidegger\u2019s phenomenological ontology and transposes the relation of Dasein to the Being of its own being (See Heidegger\u2019s Being and Time) to the discipline of theology, i.e. the relation of believing Dasein to the Being of revelation.\nHeidegger had discovered that philosophy up to that time had not really given attention to the Being of beings. He also realized that you can\u2019t observe this Being of the world from a distance. You discover it as you \u201cdo\u201d that being. Bonhoeffer picked up on that insight and applies it to the relation of the believer to revelation, i.e. the Church as Christ\u2019s body. The former can\u2019t objectively attempt to \u201cknow\u201d revelation; you get to know it as you participate in it, i.e. as you act like the body of Christ in the world.\nIn this theological analogy (which implicitly entails a refutation of Heidegger\u2019s methodological atheism) Bonhoeffer achieves a coordination, as he calls it, between act (usually the self-initiating act of comprehension but in this case, faith) and being (entailing the realization of the Christian that she belongs to a new being\u2013Christ existing as community\u2013that she can only hermeneutically question through self-involvement and participation).\nI limit my investigation only to the dialogues in Act and Being with Barth and Heidegger for the sake of clarity and manageability.\nWhat emerges is a theologia crucis that, in close alignment with Luther\u2019s own theology, is characterized by three things:\n(1) a deconstructive moment (for Luther a No against the theological \u201csystem\u201d; for Bonhoeffer a No against all epistemological trajectories (including dialectical theology!),\n(2) a hermeneutical existence (one can only question the being one participates in through faith (which is an actus directus and not an act of observation from an objectifying distance),\n(3) and an ethical call (which is not an ethical possibility, because being the church is the gift of grace through Christ but nevertheless is only real and true to the extent that this life manifests in us through our self-involvement and participation).\nIt turns out that Bonhoeffer\u2019s theology very closely aligns itself with the theology of Luther. This does not mean that Bonhoeffer is a conservative theologian. On the contrary, he obliterates boundaries and takes both Lutheran theology and dialectical theology to the next level. Moreover, the nature of the theologia crucis is such that it resists systematization and is open to new interpretation and application as the need of the times demand.\nA true theology of the cross will never be hijacked by dogmatism or claims of absolute knowledge of God. Such knowledge is always rejected. One knows God only in the praxis of Christ. Bonhoeffer discovered these things and though his spiritual breakthrough was to occur a few years later, the words flowing from his pen in Act and Being irresistibly drew him away from the self-inverted person that he was.\nPhoto credit: Diana Vargas, Unsplash.\nCategories: Articles, Bonhoeffer, Christology, cross theology, English, Ethics, Lutheranism, Revelation, theological method and tagged in: Act and Being, Akt und Sein, Body of Christ, dialectical theology, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, dissertation, epistemology, J.I. de Keijzer, Jos de Keijzer, Josh de Keijzer, Karl Barth, Martin Heidegger, Martin Luther, ontology, paradox, theologia crucis, theology of the cross\nPrevious Post Previous post: De Nashville Verklaring als Geestelijke Big Mac\nNext Post Next post: \u201cI Love Jesus But Not the Church\u201d Means You\u2019re On To Something",

Moreover, learning cognition in workplaces is considered as good strategies for language learning in off-classrooms. To comprehend the learning motivation and learning cognition in workplaces of language learners, this study aims to explore the motivation\u2019s components and learning cognitions in workplaces of Chinese learners. Five Vietnamese students, who had studied Chinese at least for six months, were subjects of the study. Interviews and diary note-takings were used as the instruments for data collection. Data were analyzed through a descriptive analysis and coding categories. The obtained results showed that there are three major factors of motivation's components for participants to learn Chinese: (1) communicative purpose, (2) interest in culture and (3) promotion of future career. Moreover, in term of cognition of Chinese usage in workplaces, obtained results showed that the cognition of participants in two key procedures: knowing from problem-solving and reasoning and knowing from association with people in their workplaces.\nmotivation, Chinese learning, learning cognition, Vietnamese students, workplaces\n[1] Y.

Dans le contexte th\u00e9orique actuel de changement des significations et des perspectives du d\u00e9veloppement humain, une attention particuli\u00e8re est accord\u00e9e au fait que la complexit\u00e9 du fonctionnement des genres refl\u00e8te la tension et la continuit\u00e9 entre des aspirations et la r\u00e9alit\u00e9. Les femmes des pays en d\u00e9veloppement ne sont pas seulement plac\u00e9es au centre du processus de d\u00e9veloppement, mais leurs cultures, enfin visibles, sont au centre du d\u00e9bat. Dans un certain nombre de projets de d\u00e9veloppement au Y\u00e9men, l'islam apparait d\u00e9sormais comme un un moyen int\u00e9ressant \u00e0 mettre au service du genre et pour renforcer le d\u00e9veloppement. Mais il existe toujours un \u00e9cart entre la th\u00e9orie et la pratique dans la mise en \u0153uvre de ces nouvelles perspectives parmi les acteurs du d\u00e9veloppement international. L'article met en lumi\u00e8re la fa\u00e7on dont l'action des femmes y\u00e9m\u00e9nites a fa\u00e7onn\u00e9 et a \u00e9t\u00e9 fa\u00e7onn\u00e9e par une combinaison complexe d\u2019interpr\u00e9tations, d\u2019usages et d\u2019effets changeants de l'Islam, du genre et du d\u00e9veloppement. Il aboutit \u00e0 la conclusion que, si les consid\u00e9rations religieuses et culturelles doivent \u00eatre prises en compte, une attention particuli\u00e8re doit \u00eatre port\u00e9e aux relations de pouvoir et aux implications qui en d\u00e9coulent pour le genre, en termes de pouvoir de n\u00e9gociation. Les r\u00e9sultats de la recherche r\u00e9affirment le r\u00f4le crucial du mouvement des femmes \u00e0 l\u2019int\u00e9rieur du processus de changement social, dans les transformations du genre au Y\u00e9men.\nThe present paper discusses the intersection and inter-connection of Islam, gender, and development policy and practice in Yemen since the 1990s. Special attention is paid to the complexity of how gender work reflects tension and continuity between aspiration and reality in the context of shifting meanings and perspectives in current human development theory. Not only are women from developing countries placed at the centre of development processes, but so their cultures are also discussed, as they are finally visible. In a number of developmental projects in Yemen, Islam now appears as an interesting means for gender and development advancement. However, there is still a gap between theory and practice when implementing these new perspectives in international development. The article spotlights how Yemeni women\u2019s agency shaped and was shaped by a complex combination of shifting meanings, uses and effects of Islam, gender and development. It leads to the conclusion that religious and cultural considerations need to be taken into account, but with close attention paid to power relations and ensuing gender implications in terms of bargaining power. Research findings reaffirm the crucial role of the women\u2019s movement in the process of social change towards gender transformations in Yemen.\ngenre, d\u00e9veloppement, islam, culture, f\u00e9minisme, droits des femmes, droits humains, mouvement f\u00e9minin, autonomisation des femmes, action f\u00e9minine\ngender, development, Islam, culture, feminism, human rights, women\u2019s movement, women\u2019s empowerment, women\u2019s rights\nIncorporating Islamic feminist views into gender and development policy and practices in Yemen\nStories from the field: beyond essentialist views of Muslim women and Islam\nA question of justification: connecting development projects with the goals of Islamic feminism\nA question of power in Islamic hermeneutics\nEngaging with Islam to promote women\u2019s rights: opportunities and shortcomings in development projects\nRunning the risk of losing sight of feminist goals in projects related to gender and Islam\n1This research explores the intersection and inter\u2011connection of Islam, gender, and development policy and practice in Yemen in a context where a new paradigm for development studies is being shaped. The previously prevailing approach of emphasizing political economy shifted in the 1990s to include other areas of study such as feminist and cultural studies. According to this new paradigm, not only are women from developing countries now at the centre of development and global processes, but their cultures are also discussed. This results in the political statement that human development is only possible if gender equality and local cultures are embraced. The central question is this: how has this new paradigm of development studies been put into practice in the context of developing countries and in particular, within the various Muslim communities found in Yemen? To what extent are these development actions consistent with the latest gender and development theories and political statements? In addition, there is also the question of how this new paradigm has been interpreted, redefined and renegotiated from a local perspective by women\u2019s human rights activists and gender practitioners.\n2I examine these questions in the context of contemporary Yemen \u2011 from its unification in 1990 until the present \u2014focusing especially on gender and development policies and practices reflecting perspectives of human development, gender equality and cultural sensitivity relating to Muslim identity. In particular, I am interested in specific projects that consider Islam a powerful tool and means for gender and development advancement. Most such initiatives have been implemented in Yemen since the second half of the 1990s by local NGOs and women\u2019s organizations, and have been funded by international donors. I analyse these projects to find out the different ways in which recent international development theory on gender and development has influenced, impacted and been implemented in local policies and practices, in dealing with women\u2019s empowerment and human rights. I place special emphasis on examining the opinions of women\u2019s human rights activists and gender practitioners, and their direct experiences, to better understand the complexity and diversity of gender issues in Yemen. I also draw attention to the political and social implications of using \u2018Islam\u2019 in developmental work, specifically to the Islamic views on women\u2019s rights laid down by opinion\u2011makers and religious scholars, both of whom may resist or, on the contrary, promote culture transformations aimed at women\u2019s empowerment and social change. These Islamic discourses are embedded in the specific socio\u2011economic, historical and political context of Yemen, and are seen as resulting from power struggles between different groups with various social positions and interests. Power relations play an important role in shaping the capacities of communities and the associated social change processes, as cultural systems frequently confer power and privileges on some by denying rights and access to resources to others. These power relations are reproduced and legitimised by cultural mechanisms, including socialization according to prevalent Islamic standards and representations concerning gender models and women\u2019s rights. In this framework, projects aimed at promoting women\u2019s rights and gender equality through woman\u2011friendly interpretations of Islam challenge the patterns in opposing ideologies justifying gender inequalities. Nevertheless, the meaningful impact of these projects will depend on their willingness to achieve feminist goals of women\u2019s empowerment and the transformation of gendered power structures.\n1 Batliwala, 2010, p. 111\u2011120.\n2 Cornwall, 2010, p. 14.\n3The starting point of my research focuses on the above\u2011mentioned shift in international development theory \u2011 from understanding development merely in terms of economic growth to the new paradigm based on human development and considering culture and gender. Several authors, such as Amartya Sen, Mahbub ul Haq and Martha Nussbaum, have helped theorize this innovative perspective, which resulted in a normative approach to development policy promoted by the UN and Western donor agencies. However, this shift in developmental discourse and policy has not necessarily been accompanied by meaningful changes in development actions or their impact assessment. In particular, there is still a persistent gap between actual gender and development discourse and its implementation pattern on the ground. A large body of literature on the topic shows how feminist concepts that were captured or co\u2011opted by international agencies have lost their radical or critical edge. In that sense, the language of gender and development has been criticized for turning into \u201cbuzzwords\u201d. An example of this is the developmental use of the term \u201cwomen\u2019s empowerment\u201d1. As this concept underwent a process of institutionalization by development agencies in the 1990s it was emptied of its original meaning connected to feminist politics and the transformation of gender power relations. Despite the depolitization of such concept, spaces for contestation and resignification of meaning have never been completely closed.2 In this context, I was particularly interested in exploring how ideas relating to Islamic feminism have shaped and been shaped by gender and development policy and practice in Yemen.\n3 The WID (or Women in Development) approach emerged in the 1970s and called for greater attention to (...)\n4Since the second half of the nineties, international trends in culture, gender and development approaches started being reflected in Yemen\u2019s local projects relating to women\u2019s rights and Islam. In line with UN and Western donors discourse and policy, more focus has been placed on funding project proposals that promote women\u2019s rights and gender equality from a culturally sensitive perspective, taking more into account Islamic concepts and collaborating with faith\u2011based organizations and religious leaders. With the shift from the WID to the GAD approach3, donor interest focused on funding projects aimed at \u201cwomen\u2019s empowerment in Muslim contexts\u201d in line with the GAD strategy, rather than merely \u201cincorporating Muslim women into development\u201d, as required by the WID approach. The cultural dimensions of development were also brought to the donors\u00b4 attention. Culture was no longer seen as a homogeneous and static unit hindering development, but rather as a dynamic and diverse entity in a constant state of flux, driven by both internal and external forces. As such, culture was recognized as a potentially powerful tool that had to be taken into consideration in development processes aimed at social change and at advancing gender equality. Consequently, increasing attention was paid to positive aspects of religious and traditional practices that could be utilized as powerful vehicles for the promotion of women\u2019s rights and empowerment. In line with this discursive framework for development, an international dialogue within the Islamic feminist movements could now be set up.\n4 Badran, 2010, p. 2. See also on the variety of Islamic feminism, Latte Abdallah, 2010.\n5The term \u201cIslamic feminist\u201d itself has been the subject of controversy and disagreement, due to diverging political positions as to whether it is possible to reconcile feminism with Islam or not. Scholars who use this concept also draw attention to its development and plurality of meaning, ranging from evolutions and fragmentation in the theory to the diversity of local Islamic feminist movements. In Margot Badran\u2019s view, despite the range of Islamic feminisms, we can still consider their driving core principles and core ideas to have remained the same, and that they are connected to a message of full human equality, including gender equality and social justice.4 Contemporary Islamic feminist scholars, such as Amina Wadud, Asma Barlas, Azizah al\u2011Hibri, Riffat Hassan, Leila Ahmed and Fatima Mernissi, have produced refined research on the topic and initiated important efforts to propound egalitarian models of Islam. They have been advocating an emphasis on reinterpreting religious texts in the light of feminist human rights perspectives, rather than patriarchal ones, in order to guarantee equal rights to Muslim women within the Islamic framework. The idea that Islam and feminism are compatible and complementary in nature has been seen as a new opportunity to advocate for women\u2019s rights within Muslim societies. As such, it has nourished and innovated gender and development strategies applied particularly in countries where Sharia\u2011based laws are enforced. Data from Yemen has not contradicted this trend.\n5 KIT, 2000, p. 3.\n6 Personal Interview with a women\u2019s rights practitioner, a MWDAR project researcher (W\u20117), Sana\u00b4a, 20 (...)\n7 Mukhopadya, 2001, p. 17.\n6One of the first initiatives in Yemen inspired by this new approach on Islam, gender and development was a project entitled \u201cMuslim Women and Development Action Research\u201d (MWDAR). The project was implemented in 1999\u20112000 by the Yemeni Women\u2019s Union and the Dhamar Women\u2019s Health Centre, funded by the Dutch government through the Royal Tropical Institute (KIT). The project aimed to develop insights into the ways in which Muslim women use religious and cultural resources in supporting their rights to reproductive health and education. A further aim was to use these insights to develop approaches to gender and development that empower women and see them as agents of change rather than victims of patriarchal culture.5 Riffat Hassan, a Pakistani\u2011born scholar and one of the most prominent Islamic feminists, was the principal consultant on this project, providing an Islamic framework to women\u2019s human rights advocacy. She believes that the most effective way of empowering Muslim girls and women is through human rights education based on a feminist reading of the Quran. She argues that if women acquire the competency to use religious texts in support of their fundamental rights, they will be equipped to take a stand against negative cultural practices and gender\u2011based violence. The research data of the MWDAR project was interpreted in line with this argument. The study findings focused on a few humble women from the rural areas of Aden and Dhamar that were able to use some positive religious and cultural resources to advocate their rights and freedoms. They applied it to situations where they had to defend their traditional way of living in the face of recent ultra\u2011conservative Islamic speeches that had spread to local villages through extremist mosque preachers and people having received a conservative religious education in school.6 The analysis of these cases shows that mere access to education is not enough for women\u2019s empowerment; above all, it requires an access to quality knowledge and religious information so that women can use these to assert their rights and overcome their reluctance to defending what they consider to be a rightful way of life. Consequently, the study recommended a new strategy for development enhancing women\u2019s empowerment through access to religious knowledge in support of women\u2019s rights.7\n8 Bartelink and Buitelaar, 2006, p. 351\u2011361.\n9 Bartelink and Buitelaar, 2006, p. 356.\n7A few years later, Brenda Bartelink and Marjo Buitelaar (2006) took up the debate on the MWDAR project to draw attention to its shortcomings and to problematize the question of Islam as a tool for women\u2019s empowerment. They believed that the MWDAR project did not meet expectations or project goals, because it failed to go beyond an essentialist view of Muslim women.8 This had led to an ill\u2011informed conceptualization of the role of Islam in development. A renewed analysis of the life stories of the rural women depicted in the MWDAR project, suggests that the role of religion was mainly relative to the configuration of their everyday lives and positions, and that it was not necessarily more important than other cultural, political and socio\u2011economic factors or knowledge. Although references to Islam are often used when talking, it would be erroneous to think this usage is helpful when dealing with women\u2019s empowerment. It can be interpreted, for instance, as a way of reaffirming their Muslim identities or to highlight their faith as a source of inspiration, motivation, and hope. Trust in God and Islamic messages may even help a number of them to endure precarious and difficult situations, but this is mainly a coping mechanism. The idea of \u2018moving into positions of power\u2019, central to the concept of empowerment, was lacking9. Empowerment, in feminist theory, is the process by which women, individually and collectively, become aware of the gendered power relations and gain the ability to develop effective strategies to challenge these inequalities and shift power imbalances. Unlike coping mechanisms, empowerment strategies deal not only with patriarchal restrictions, but also have the potential to challenge an oppressive system of male domination and power. From this perspective, a woman\u2011friendly interpretation of Islam can only be a helpful tool in gender development if it is used in the pursuit of feminist political ends. In that sense, the importance of Islamic feminism is not only in religious advocacy of women\u2019s rights, but also in its political implications such as tackling those patriarchal ideologies seeking to legitimize gender inequalities in the name of religion. Women\u2019s involvement in such gender politics and transformative actions is crucial. Therefore, a key question, discussed in this article, concerns the dynamics of power relations and the recognition of women\u2019s agency.\n8Cassandra Balchin contends,\n10 Balchin, 2010, p. 83.\n\u201cin current international development policy, religion is simultaneously seen as the biggest developmental obstacle, the only developmental issue, and the only developmental solution. The co\u2011existence of these three \u2014seemingly contrary\u2014 approaches, which can often be found within a single bilateral or international development agency or NGO, is possible because they all stem from the same Orientalist presumption about the \u2018underdeveloped Other\u2019 (Said, 1978).\u201d10\n11 Mohanty, 1991.\n9This reflexion is particularly useful in relation to the debate on women and Islam in development work, since it has often been trapped between two opposing and contradictory discourses. The first depicts Islam as a barrier to development and as a source of oppression for Muslim women, while the second discourse portrays it as a vehicle for social change and women\u2019s empowerment. The problem of both positions lies in their essentialist views of Muslim women as well as in the depiction of Islam as a static and monolithic entity. What is identified as \u2018Islamic\u2019 in both discourses is wrongly represented as something affecting all Muslim women in the same way. Women are depicted as a homogenous group, deprived of power and individual voices, treated as the objects, not the subjects of development. This corresponds with Chandra Tolpade Mohanty\u2019s notion of the \u201dthird world woman\u201d, represented particularly in Western views as a victim without agency, who is always in need of external help.11\n12 Bartelink and Buitelaar, 2006, p. 358.\n10Despite the influence of religious factors, it cannot be assumed that the situation of women in Yemen is determined solely by Islamic ideologies, norms or beliefs. And, as such, that these situations can be changed simply by replacing conservative interpretations of Islam with more moderate ones that are supportive of women\u2019s rights. Although a woman\u2011friendly interpretation of Islam can be a helpful tool in gender and development, it is necessary to bear in mind that there is nothing in \u2018Islam\u2019 intrinsically capable of changing gendered power relations.12 Moreover, focusing squarely on Islam and the religious identity of Yemeni women in development projects can result in hindering a deeper analysis of their situations in the broader context of economic, political, cultural, social, and gender relations. In my interviews with Yemeni women\u2019s rights activists and leaders from various women\u2019s non\u2011Islamist networks and NGOs based in Sana\u00b4a, Taiz and Aden, I realized that their primary concerns were not religious, but rather related to the lack of opportunities and basic services, poverty, difficulties in accessing and controlling resources, gender\u2011based violence, early marriage, under\u2011representation in the political sphere and in decision\u2011making positions, among others. When asked about religious problems, they expressed worry about the political and social power that Islamic extremist groups and conservative Islamist parties have gained in relatively recent times in Yemen. In particular, they talked about the negative changes that had been observed in women\u2019s lives and rights due to the influence of ultra\u2011conservative ideologies that are Wahhabism and Salafism. They also pointed to the influence of conservative party al\u2011I\u1e63l\u0101\u1e25 in political circles, which had affected many of the progressive social and legislative reforms concerning women\u2019s issues in Yemen after unification in the 1990s. The impact of these conservative trends hindered, for instance, the promulgation of a new law that would have made 17 the minimum legal age for marriage. It also affected Yemen\u2019s Family Code of 1992, based on Islamic Sharia law, and modified in 1998, 1999 and 2002 with more conservative amendments.\n11The life stories of women\u2019s rights activists also remind us of the historical difference between women in the South and in the North of Yemen as well as of the diverse sets of values along which both societies were organized. Susanne Dahlgren in her study of Adeni society of the late 1980s has suggests three co\u2011existing frameworks that should have been taken into consideration when analysing the social life of the former capital of South Yemen. These frameworks are: \u2018ad\u0101t wa taq\u0101lid (customs and traditions), d\u012bn (religion), and thawra (revolution). Regarding religion, Dahlgren specifies,\n13 Dahlgren, 2007, p. 330.\n\u201c\u2018d\u012bn\u2019 alone does not stand for Islam, since custom and revolution are influenced by it, too, contributing to the local variations of Islam. Rather, \u2018d\u012bn\u2019 is a specific understanding of Islam that presents this particular religious discourse as the only rightful way of life.\u201d13\n12The above\u2011mentioned three major ideologies continue to exist side by side in Aden until present. However, I would suggest that religious discourse has become particularly strong after Yemen\u2019s unification in 1990, and has affected the whole Yemeni society. This is how women\u2019s rights activists, and in particular those originally from Taiz and Aden, remembered the abrupt shift in gender relationships that took place in Yemeni society after the 1990s:\n14 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u201110), Taiz, 10 May 2011.\n\u201cEverything started to change when Yemeni workers returned to Yemen from Saudi Arabia during the Gulf Crisis in the 1990s\u2026 Many of them came back with a Wahhabi mentality. At that time, we were in Taiz like that: women without veils \u2026 we didn\u2019t wear any black things or cover our faces\u2026 Everything changed in just two years, after the Gulf Crisis, in the mountains and in the city.\u201d14\n15 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u20111), Sana\u2019a, 11 March 2012.\n\u201cWhen Wahhabis and Salafis entered Yemen, everything changed. They changed our culture\u2026 When I was young everything was different\u2026 When I was in the market [in Taiz], I remember it as an open and colourful place, but with the passage of time, the market started getting more closed in upon itself, women started wearing black clothes, everything started to be cloaked in darkness, women and men stopped working together, people started saying: \u2018\u1e25aram, \u1e25aram\u2019 [forbidden, forbidden]\u2026 They changed our culture, it went from joyful and colourful to a black Wahhabi and Salafi culture\u2026This Wahhabi culture is killing our spirit, our freedoms.\u201d15\n16 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u20113), Sana\u2019a, 13 June 2011.\n\u201cIn the South [in Aden], we were Muslims\u2026 But, because of the communist regime there, after the unification [of South and North Yemen], we were accused of not being Muslim. Before, I was like you, without a veil. I wear the veil only because my colleagues here said that I was not a Muslim\u2026 Everything the previous state had done to improve women\u2019s rights, collapsed after unification.\u201d16\n13As mentioned above, Yemeni women are particularly concerned about the specific conservative discourses of \u201cd\u012bn\u201d that have gained in influence and induced specific sociocultural changes in Yemen since the 1990s. As a consequence, a number of women\u2019s rights activists decided to engage in religious debates to run counter the ultra\u2011conservative Islamic influence. In addition, the events of September 11, 2001 represented a turning point in the history of developmental initiatives aiming to tackle Islamist extremism and promote moderate Islam, since Western donor interest in funding such projects in Yemen had grown. This has also had an influence on the project proposals that seek solutions to gender inequality by promoting and enhancing women\u2019s human rights through modern interpretations of Islam, and by working side by side with moderate religious leaders and faith\u2011based organizations.\n14A development programme entitled \u201cWomen\u2019s Rights in Islam\u201d started in 2002, shortly after September 11, and finished in 2008. It was implemented by the Taiz\u2011based NGO \u201cWomen\u2019s Forum for Research and Training\u201d (WFRT), and funded by the German Agency for Development (GTZ). Its main goal was to raise awareness of women\u2019s human rights through the lens of Islam. The strategy consisted of training female and male leaders in woman\u2011friendly interpretations of the Quran and Sunna in order to gain their support and mobilize them to advocate human rights and gender equality in Yemen. Particular attention was paid to imams, preachers and other religious authorities to strengthen their commitment to a human rights perspective on argumentative topics such as polygamy, political participation, the state, inheritance, wergild, equal citizenship, social justice, and equal rights and duties. Project activities consisted mainly of seminars, training sessions, workshops, research studies and publications.\n15An in\u2011depth analysis of the \u201cWomen\u2019s Rights in Islam Programme\u201d shows how gender and development actions can be connected to, but also disconnected from feminist meanings and strategies for women\u2019s empowerment. The project was drafted and implemented by the WFRT, which is considered a Yemeni women\u2019s NGO. According to the project leader, this initiative aimed to end the male monopoly on the interpretation of Islam and to challenge patriarchal religious power:\n17 Personal interview with Yemeni women\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u201110), Taiz, 10 May 2011.\n\u201cIt is very important to take the risk of analyzing women\u2019s rights from an Islamic perspective. We cannot leave it to imams and to all these religious people. We have to bring all these issues to the table and ask what Islam is. We have to know if Islam is against women or not, and why. Imams and some others keep saying that Islam is not against women. However, we have to know, we have to verify that\u2026 Because in real life \u2014it seems to be against women, because they made it so. So we have to know if the problem is with Islam or if it is because of their interpretation of Islam\u2026 It is very important to talk about women\u2019s rights and Islam, especially when the debate comes from women\u2019s organizations\u2026 They [male religious scholars] are used to women just keeping silent when they say that this or that is \u1e25aram [forbidden]. Women have always done what they told them to do since it came from Islam, because they told them that was Islam. But when you bring all these issues to the table and discuss them\u2026 It is a good thing, because women now can stand up and say: \u2018No, you are not right, Islam doesn\u2019t say such things\u2019.\u201d17\n16The project was driven by the level of women\u2019s interest in politics and aimed to reclaim and reinterpret religion from an Islamic feminist perspective in order to advocate for women\u2019s rights and gender equality. Due to the highly politicized context of Yemen regarding women\u2019s issues, having development practitioners adapt Islamic language and arguments was also seen as a matter of legitimacy needed to justify their work and struggle for women\u2019s emancipation.\n18 Sabra, 2008, p. 39.\n\u201cYemeni society is strongly influenced by religion\u201d, says Suad al\u2011Qadasi, chairwoman of the WFRT. \u201cAny talk of gender equality or the emancipation of women is almost automatically branded here as western colonialism or un\u2011Islamic. But it is not right to pretend that the emancipation of women is a privilege reserved for the West. Women have rights in Islam too \u2011 you just have to read the texts correctly.\"18\n17The issue of women\u2019s rights, as Deniz Kandiyoti put it for the Muslim world, is invariably\n19 Abu Lughod, 1998, p. 3.\n\u201cpart of an ideological terrain where broader notions of cultural authenticity and integrity are debated and where women\u2019s appropriate place and conduct may be made to serve as boundary markers.\u201d19\n18That is why many Yemeni activists, both secular and religious, applied an Islamic framework to human rights and gender equality in answer to those who wished to perpetuate the notion of an East/West split and use the label \"western\" to discredit progressive moves to implement human rights and women\u2019s freedoms. Furthermore, the promotion of women\u2019s rights through Islam has been seen as a culturally sensitive approach that helps to connect with wider segments of Yemeni society.\n19One of the contributions of the Islam\u2011inspired gender projects in Yemen was to prove and promote compatibility between Islam and women\u2019s human rights, as defined by the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), through the use of feminist interpretations of Islamic texts. The above\u2011mentioned WFRT project published two training manuals in Arabic supporting women\u2019s human rights authored by female experts in the field of Islamic jurisprudence and philosophy. The first guide was prepared by Zeinab Radwan (2004), an Egyptian academic scholar and successful politician, member of parliament. The second one was edited by Farida Bennani (2005), a Moroccan feminist researcher and university professor of Islamic law. Similar publications relating to women\u2019s human rights and Islam were also developed by other Yemeni women\u2019s organizations, including the Women\u2019s National Committee and the Yemeni Women\u2019s Union. Consequently, women\u2019s rights as stipulated in international human rights treaties and ratified by Yemen, were reaffirmed as valid and legitimate from an Islamic perspective. In particular, among women\u2019s rights confirmed as being fundamental to Islam are the following: the right to life, dignity, education, justice, freedom, work, income and property, to live in safety and security, and to participate in all affairs pertaining to women\u2019s personal well\u2011being and that of their families, communities and societies.\n20The women\u2019s reinterpretations of Islamic texts and teachings in accordance with international standards of human rights challenge conventional patriarchal views on gender relations in Islam, and are a threat to male dominance and power. Therefore, such practices often meet with religiously grounded opposition and are the target of attacks from conservative religious factions. The WFRT project was no exception to such a dynamic. As one project leader recalls,\n\u201cThe first minister who contacted me when he read about the project was the Minister of Awq\u0101f [Religious Endowments] from Saudi Arabia. He sent twenty copies of books about Islam to my office\u2026 These people, when they get to know about projects like that, they become afraid. They want to keep you within their interpretation of Islam. For us, it was a sign that our project was on the right track. I even put those books in the library, I don\u2019t hide them\u2026 It is a measure of our project. We didn\u2019t know that the project could be a problem for them. But it was\u2026 It caused them a lot of problems\u2026 Even Zind\u0101n\u012b [\u2018Abd Abd al\u2011Maj\u012bd al\u2011Zind\u0101n\u012b, conservative Yemeni cleric from the I\u1e63l\u0101\u1e25 Party] wrote a fatwa against one of our researchers [Mu\u1e25ammad Sayf al\u2011\u201bUdayn\u012b], who wrote a book about ten obstacles standing in the way of women\u2019s rights in Islam\u2026 Things calmed down, because he [Mu\u1e25ammad al\u2011\u201bUdayn\u012b] is from I\u1e63l\u0101\u1e25 too\u2026 But, what do you think would have happened if al\u2011\u201bUdayn\u012b had not been with I\u1e63l\u0101\u1e25? If he had been just a researcher at the university or from any other modern organization? They let him off the hook, because he was from their organization.\u201d20\n21There is no doubt that feminist interpretations of the Quran, along with other training and social re\u2011education activities dealing with such points of view of Islam, points of view amenable to human rights and gender equality perspectives, play a part in gender politics and dynamics of power. The renegotiation of gender power relations involves conflict and resistance. However, I would argue that without a real commitment to the feminist goals of women\u2019s empowerment and the radical readjustment of patriarchal power structures, these strategies can easily lose their initial meanings and intentions in terms of transformative actions in development work. The crucial questions of how, why and who is implementing these strategies make all the difference in determining their success in terms of final project outcomes and progress toward the goal of gender equality and social justice.\n22The \u201cWomen\u2019s Rights in Islam Programme\u201d, according to WFRT and GTZ reports, succeeded in engaging Yemeni women with leadership potential and from different professional backgrounds (such as lawyers, teachers, journalists, preachers and NGO representatives) in project activities. The training provided them with sound arguments about their rights in Islam, and with the skills to participate in public debates with the media, judiciary, university scholars and religious leaders. The project aim was to generate a ripple effect by mobilizing them to train other women and discuss specific issues relating to gender and Islam from a woman\u2011friendly interpretation of the Quran and hadiths. There are no available references in the project documents to measure the real impact and changes incurred as a result of these activities. As I was told, the women, mainly preachers and teachers, refused to be observed and evaluated when they had meetings with other women, mostly in private houses and schools. Still, post\u2011project interviews with the outstanding Yemeni women involved in the WFRT project as coordinators or as participants, suggest certain positive impacts on their personal sense of empowerment thanks to the knowledge acquired on women\u2019s human rights in Islam and other related topics. The woman\u2011friendly interpretations of Islam were seen as an important tool to give legitimacy to their public work and to enhance their motivation to pursue their personal goals. However, it was not the religious knowledge in itself that had prepared them and propelled them to their leadership positions.\n23The experience of empowerment was seen as a process. It was not due to just one project but instead to many factors that shaped their personal, relational and professional life. Training on women\u2019s rights from a reform\u2011oriented Islamic perspective was relevant in gaining an insight into the distinction between normative Islam, and its cultural interpretations tied to a local political and economic context. It helped by enhancing women\u2019s freedom to make choices. For example, Tawakkul Karm\u0101n, laureate of the Nobel Peace Prize 2011 and founder of the organization \u201cWomen Journalists without Chains\u201d, decided in 2004 to take off her niq\u0101b, the cloth covering her face, to make a point that fully covering your face is not dictated by Islam, but is Yemeni tradition. Other well\u2011known women who were involved in the WFRT project, like Ra\u1e25ma \u1e24ujayra, founder of the Media Women\u2019s Forum, or Misk al\u2011Junayd, who now works for international organizations, made similar remarks, and removed their face veils in the process of empowering themselves. It is difficult to attribute this kind of personal choice to the WFRT project. However, according to one of the WFRT leaders, such a choice should be recognized as a result of the awareness raised in Yemen by such initiatives. Personally, she considers that her particular knowledge of Islam along with the critical thinking skills was useful in defending her rights and freedoms in the face of religious conservatism:\n\u201cI know a lot about Islam. I can discuss it with imams. If they say one thing, I can answer back and give them other arguments from the Quran or hadiths\u2026 However, if you want to challenge them, you have to know what you\u2019re talking about. These people are very tough. They will fight for what they have. If you don\u2019t have something to make them question themselves, then you have failed.\u201d21\n24Other activists from non\u2011Islamist women\u2019s networks in Sana\u2019a present two different, but complementary points of view. In their statements, they claim that a faith\u2011based approach is politically necessary in Yemen, even if the way the strategy is currently implemented is a topic of controversy in the women\u2019s rights movement. A number of women focus on the potential of Islam as a positive resource for gender equality. They claim women have a right to interpret their religion in accordance with modern times and with the principles of equality, justice and freedom in mind. Their declarations clearly go against patriarchal interpretations, made by mostly male religious scholars. As one of the Yemeni female university scholars says,\n22 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u20117), Sana\u2019a, 5 April 2011.\n\u201cWomen should have the right to interpret Islamic texts to lay down our rights very clearly. They should sit with men and say, \u2018these are our rights according to this book [in the Quran], why are you hiding them?\u2019 I, as a Muslim woman, I know Islam by myself, I practice what I know, and I never accept any advice or speech from any imam or religious men. I don\u2019t accept them at all, because they are not clear and not honest in their visions\u2026 I am not a specialist in this area\u2026 But, there are women who are specialists of Islam, and who have the power to teach about these issues\u2026 Internationally, we should set up a system where women are visible and they interpret their religion. Women should interpret religion for other women. We should have access to their books to read them\u2026 Unfortunately, there are also women who are specialists of Islam, but they are extremists, and they ask other women to be invisible, more than they are now. They are dangerous\u2026 We need women who can teach women\u2011friendly interpretations of Quran\u2026 I am a Quranist, I believe in the Quran and in a few hadiths only. I don\u2019t believe in all the hadiths, because they were created by people, and some seem to be against women.\u201d22\n25There are also Yemeni women\u2019s rights activists who think the current talk about Islam only shifts the focus away from other debates relating to modern, cultural, intellectual and social dynamics in the country. This resulted in their voices not being heard in current gender and development policy and practice. These secular Muslim activists prefer promoting human rights and gender equality from a non\u2011religious perspective. Most of them are highly critical of the ways in which Islam\u2011inspired gender projects are implemented in Yemen. According to them, that sort of strategy does more harm than good. It overlooks the problem of power relations and seeks a solution to discrimination against women through religious preaching and education. Although these opinions are still limited in number, they are based on women\u2019s professional experience in gender and development work in Yemen. One of these women identified the following shortcomings in the projects on which she worked:\n23 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u201114), Sana\u2019a, 14 June 2011.\n\u201cWe have very weak education in Yemen. The only knowledge that the society has access to comes from religious perspectives. There is no effort to give people a different kind of education\u2026 And, development organizations have never made any effort to change that\u2026 From my point of view, the main problem is not religion, but the lack of services and opportunities\u2026 Here\u2026 they use religious awareness for family planning\u2026 When they want to stop a woman from having too many children, they give her religious speeches. Do you think this can give her access to contraceptives? That is not the way to go. We have to give her contraceptive services. We have to have more powerful women, women with income and a good education, and also stop the conflicts.\u201d23\n26Another women\u2019s rights practitioner, while talking about her experiences in dealing with the religious approach in the UNFPA Gender\u2011based Violence Programme, came to the similar conclusion that religion and Islamic scholars are not the key issues in enhancing women\u2019s empowerment and in implementing women\u2019s rights in Yemen. She was concerned with the strategy itself as well as with the ways in which the project was implemented:\n24 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u20114), Sana\u2019a, 7 June 2011.\n\u201cThere are no real follow\u2011up mechanisms\u2026 When we finished the project, we ended with some recommendations to be implemented. But, nobody has used these recommendations to start from where we finished\u2026 Everybody is always starting from square one\u2026 The second point is that we have to work on services\u2026 We need to support women with services free of charges\u2026 We were talking about how women should use these services, and we worked on women\u2019s awareness about the system. It was like the first stage\u2026 but the problem is that we didn\u2019t develop these services\u2026 We were discussing whether women should go directly to court, to the police station or to the hospital. But, these places are not gender\u2011sensitive at all, and you have to have money to pay for them. What if you don\u2019t have money?\u2026 The majority of women don\u2019t have their own money\u2026 They need help with services.\u201d24\n27The above\u2011mentioned declarations of Yemeni women\u2019s rights practitioners draw attention to the complexity of Islam\u2011inspired gender projects in a context of development machinery. On the one hand, a number of women activists recognize the positive value of promoting women\u2019s rights within the legitimate framework of Islam. They see it as a positive strategy to raise awareness about women\u2019s rights and to connect with broader segments of Yemeni society. On the other hand, there are limitations. Gender equality advancement and women\u2019s empowerment do not necessarily take place in the targeted or expected directions. From the feminist perspective, it is questionable if any meaningful impact on the advancement of women\u2019s empowerment and gender equality can be attributed to such development projects. In reality, all these are specific and isolated activities, the impact of which does not necessarily go beyond the information gained during the training sessions, workshops, seminars, mosque\u2011based activities or awareness raising campaigns through mass media. The main shortcoming of these programmes is in their inability to implement a holistic strategy that would empower women and provide them with the necessary resources and services to put into practice the knowledge acquired during awareness\u2011raising activities. For Yemeni women\u2019s rights activist, the holistic strategy requires, as a minimum, access to good quality education, control over resources, providing services, and the power of decision making.\n25 Gender analysis refers to \u201cthe systematic gathering and examination of information on gender differ (...)\n28These missed opportunities for women\u2019s empowerment within Islam\u2011inspired development projects are due to the way in which \u201cgender\u201d has been deployed within them, resulting in the de\u2011politicization of feminist commitments. While in feminist theory, \u201cgender\u201d refers to male\u2011female power relations, and its goal is to transform these hierarchical relations in order to generate more equality and justice for women, the usage of this concept in development practice has often been misleading. Authors like Sally Baden and Anne Marie Goetz (1997) show how \u201cgender\u201d has become a synonym for \u201cwomen\u201d in development work. My concerns lie elsewhere, and point to practice where \u201cgender\u201d gets men and women jointly involved in development projects, but fails to integrate consciously and consistently gender analysis25, which creates a disconnect between this advance and feminist goal of eliminating gender discrimination and inequalities. Involving men into gender and development policy and practice is of unquestionable importance. However, this integration should not be mainly interpreted as a mean of increasing number of men in existing gender projects, inadvertently at the expense of women\u2019s participation and advancement. It is more about assuming equal responsibilities in transforming gender power relations to make the world a better place for both men and women.\n26 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u201110), Taiz, 2011/05/10.\n29Yemen\u2011based projects relating to women and Islam can give an insight into challenges that lay ahead of this \u201cgender\u201d trend. Projects goals are the promotion of women\u2019s rights and empowerment, but do not necessarily focus on strengthening women\u2019s movements, instead they target influential men. Getting male leaders involved in women\u2019s rights advocacy stems from an assumption that they have an advantage over women as influential community members who are perceived as trustworthy and who people will listen to. The change in strategy of the WFRT project on \u201cWomen\u2019s rights in Islam\u201d was partly motivated by this belief.26 In 2005, the project shifted from a woman\u2011oriented approach to a gender\u2011oriented one. Consequently, influential groups of men were targeted, including imams, religious scholars, mosque preachers, university professors, journalists, lawyers and human rights activists. The aim was to turn them into supporters of women\u2019s issues in Yemen. As explained in the project documentation,\n\u201cthe gender issue was placed in a general human rights and democracy context. The original concept was modified such that special training courses [focusing on citizenship, democracy and women\u2019s rights in Islam] were offered to men alone, so that they too could support the process of rethinking.\u201d27\n30Engaging men in the process was acclaimed by development agencies as good practice to achieve successful results in gender work. However, little efforts have been made to critically analyse the outcome of this strategy in Yemen, to measure its real contribution to feminist goals of women\u2019s empowerment and gender equality.\n28 WFRT, 2009, p. 36.\n31The data from the WFRT project documents raise questions. The WFRT report on the last phase of the programme (September 2007\u2013December 2008), for instance, shows that men, and not women, were the major beneficiaries of the project. The first activity of that phase consisted of a research meeting in Taiz, in September 2007, held to prepare a study design on equal citizenship in Yemen. Eight researchers took part in that meeting, all men. Three of them ended up writing research studies sponsored by the WFRT project. As a result, three books were published, namely: Citizenship and the Paradox of State in Islamic Thinking by Abdulkarim Kassem, Equal Citizenship in Islam by Mohammed al\u2011Lotaify, and Equal Citizenship in Light of Sharia Objectives by Abdulaziz al\u2011Usaly. Following the new gender strategy, the language deployed in the project also changed. There were no workshops on \u201cwomen\u2019s rights\u201d anymore, but on \u201cequal citizenship\u201d, so that the title of the topic was more attractive for both sexes. In fact, it was appealing to men, who represented the majority of training participants. Concretely, the targeted number of beneficiaries in the first workshop on equal citizenship, held in Sana\u2019a in December 2007, was 46: 66.6% males and 33.3% females. In the second workshop, carried out in Sana\u2019a in March 2008, there were 21 participants: 63.15% males and 36.85% females. The majority of lecturers in both workshops were also men. In the first one, there was only one woman out of eight lecturers. In the second one, the main trainer was a male expert on human rights in the Arab world, who carried out eleven sessions. A woman, the chair of the WFRT, held two sessions only. The rest of the projects\u2019 activities consisted of lectures presented mostly by male scholars. As a result, in the last phase of the programme, most of the 276 direct beneficiaries were men, although it is hard to find out the exact number due to a lack of sex\u2011disaggregated data. The total number of indirect beneficiaries, those to whom direct beneficiaries of the program imparted their knowledge, was 16143: 5120 women and 11023 men.28 The fact that the majority of beneficiaries in the last phase of the project were men means that they also benefited the most from that stage of the project. The training courses provided them with qualifications, skills and contacts that were helpful in enhancing their public profile and in getting job opportunities. A number of male religious scholars and leaders were employed as trainers in other projects, including other WFRT initiatives. Some got a chance to travel abroad to receive more training or to spread success stories of their experiences in gender programmes.\n32The lack of an equity policy regarding the problem of gender distribution and power relations raises questions of missed opportunities for women in such gender projects. Instead of promoting women, they involuntarily promote men. Incorporating religious leaders and scholars as development partners in gender projects in Yemen is another illustration of this issue. The justification for mobilizing religious men and faith\u2011based organizations in women\u2019s rights advocacy is based on the assumption that they could play a leading role in influencing public opinion and stimulating social change. In Yemen, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has one of the longest\u2011running experiences in dealing with gender initiatives implemented in partnership with faith\u2011based organizations and religious communities. Since 1998, the UNFPA has been working with Yemen\u2019s Ministry of Awq\u0101f and Religious Guidance and other religious institutions to raise public awareness and social change in the fields of reproductive health, family planning, HIV/AIDS, early marriage, female genital mutilation and gender\u2011based violence. Initiatives involved male imams, scholars and preachers who were supposed to promote women\u2019s empowerment through the use of women\u2011friendly Islamic resources. Nevertheless, these projects never intended to challenge the fact that women are excluded from the most important religious leadership positions in Yemen, and that certain Islamic teachings continue to be widely used to justify this exclusion. There are no female imams or women having attained decision\u2011making positions in prominent religious institutions in Yemen. As of now, female preachers mostly operate at grassroots levels. This goes against the fact that there are female precursors in religious leadership positions in other Muslim countries and in Muslim communities in Europe and in the United States. The case of Amina Wadud, an American scholar and Islamic feminist, who asserted the right to be an imam for a mixed\u2011gender congregation, is emblematic, for instance, of the debate on women as imams in Islam.\n29 Dr Hilary Kalmbach, co\u2011author of Women, Leadership and Mosques: Changes in Contemporary Islamic Aut (...)\n30 Zeinab Radwan and Farida Bennani do not usually use a \u1e25ij\u0101b, a headscarf, which is a practice that (...)\n33\u201cRecent increases in the ability of Muslim women to publicly speak as preachers, teachers, scholars or interpreters of religious texts represent a significant shift in Islamic leadership and authority\u201d.29 These women, and especially Islamic feminists, are challenging male dominance, drawing on their knowledge, beliefs and practices in creative and innovative ways. The WFRT programme on \u201cWomen\u2019s rights in Islam\u201d dealt with a similar experience when it first started. Leading female Islamic scholars, such as Zeinab Radwan from Egypt and Farida Bennani from Morocco, were involved in the early phases of the project. Despite their controversial appearance as unveiled Muslim women30, they are acknowledged as prominent Islamic scholars, and male religious preachers and leaders take part in their training courses and workshops. WFRT\u2019s first initiative relating to gender and Islam was to organize a training workshop on Islam in Lebanon for a mixed group of potential leaders from Yemen. The trainers were mostly women and their reform\u2011oriented teachings were progressively accepted by Yemeni male imams. As one of the WFRT leaders remembers,\n\u201cM\u016bna come from Egypt and another trainer from Tunisia, both women came to train male imams. It was a shock for them, \u2018female trainers on modern Islam!\u2019 And then, they had that long workshop, maybe 10 days, and they always came on time, they sat and listened to these women\u2026This is what we first did \u2014we took 25 imams, among others, to Lebanon. Why? If we had started here [in Yemen], we would not have succeeded. But, because we took them to Beirut, it made a difference.\u201d31\n34Getting back to the debate on the role of male religious leaders and scholars in development programmes, there is no in\u2011depth research on the impact of their involvement in gender projects on empowering women and on gender equality. A number of developmental practitioners in Yemen believe that cooperating with religious leaders as advocates and partners in promoting women\u2019s rights is a successful strategy. However, to what extent are their opinions influenced by current development discourses rather than based on facts? If we question the details of how the approach was implemented, limitations show up. My concern goes further, as even the most moderate imams that I interviewed in Yemen \u2011 acting as project stakeholders \u2011 were sometimes reluctant to break with certain conventional Islamic teachings on gender models, regarding differences between women\u2019s and men\u2019s rights and freedoms. This is in opposition to international commitments to gender equality and women\u2019s human rights as declared in CEDAW.\n32 The name has been changed to protect the informant\u2019s identity.\n35In 2011, I paid a visit to the National Organization for Developing Society (NODS) in Taiz, founded by Shawq\u012b al\u2011Q\u0101\u1e0d\u012b, moderate imam and I\u1e63l\u0101\u1e25 Member of Parliament. Previously, I had had the opportunity to evaluate a project carried out by the same organization in partnership with the Yemeni Women\u2019s Union. The project was entitled \u201cLeadership for Strengthening Women\u2019s Political Participation through Dialogue in Yemen\u201d, and was implemented in 2008\u20132009. Its goal was to improve the political and social integration of women through consensus and network building in support of women\u2019s political rights across a broad spectrum of political and civil society actors. It is one of many projects, in which NODS has collaborated in support of women\u2019s rights in Yemen. Nevertheless, NODS\u2019 area of expertise is in projects targeting imams and other religious people in an effort to embrace democracy and human rights as well as combat religious extremism and faith\u2011based violence. The NODS is well known for the effectiveness of its strategies in that field and its achievements in re\u2011educating ultra\u2011conservative men in accordance with moderate teachings of Islam. The contribution of such initiatives to social change and for a better society is indubitable. However, the extent to which these male religious leaders and scholars play an important role in women\u2019s empowerment and in transforming gender power relations is unclear. Do they offer any alternative to traditional and conservative gender models in Yemen? The case of Mu\u1e25ammad32, a 35\u2011year\u2011old imam who currently works for international organizations and trains youth on human rights in Islam, is an illustrative example of a Salafi turned moderate Islamist. Because he received training on women\u2019s human rights from the WFRT and other development organizations, questions have been raised about the impact that these gender courses have had on his life and his way of thinking. In a conversation, he listed his public contributions to the promotion of women\u2019s rights in Yemen, and in particular to the national campaigns against early marriage and gender\u2011based violence. On a personal level, he mentioned how his perceptions of Yemeni women working for international organizations had changed positively. Previously, he used to have a negative opinion of them, based on stereotypes of \u2018modern\u2019 women\u2019s behaviour, particularly women\u2019s rights activists. In Yemen, female activists are often the victims of discrediting tactics, one of which is to falsely accuse them of being agents of the West and of subverting Islamic values. In short, Mu\u1e25ammad\u2019s discourse on women\u2019s rights and freedoms tended to be progressive. However, a closer look at his private life revealed certain contradictions between his moderate discourse and his actual practice. He considers that there are still certain men\u2019s rights and privileges that cannot be revoked since they are given by Islam. His recently contracted multi\u2011wife marriage, which was undoubtedly made in good faith, is an example of men\u2019s exclusive rights which he asserts cannot be changed and are considered sacred.\n36In my interviews with Yemeni women\u2019s rights activists a part of the urban elite of well\u2011educated professionals who mostly work for International Organizations (IO) and NGOs, having male imams and Islamic scholars promote new models of masculinity and the full realization of gender equality is greeted with scepticism. Yemeni religious leaders, with the exception of one or two, are not seen as the best role models for other boys and men to promote gender equality and new conceptions of masculinity. A number of women\u2019s rights activists believe that they should not been seen as key people to work with on women\u2019s empowerment. Their criticism concerns the fact that too much importance has often been given to male religious leaders and scholars, at the expense of other stakeholders, including Yemeni women. They recognize, however, that it is politically important for women\u2019s organizations and development workers to set up strategic alliances with religious leaders and faith\u2011based organizations to advocate reforms of Sharia\u2011based laws and other related issues. Yemeni women\u2019s rights activists point out the advantages of using religious strategies in Muslim contexts, but also show the limitations and possible dangers of approaches to women\u2019s advocacy relying solely on religious discourses and actors. While speaking about the sensitive gender issues in Islam, like equal rights and spousal duties, inheritance, and so on, one of the Yemeni activists said:\n33 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u20118), Sana\u2019a, 18 September 2011.\n\u201cYes, maybe they [male religious leaders and scholars] don\u2019t believe in all rights for women, but some of them\u2026 Very few of them, who are open\u2011minded, they believe in women\u2019s rights\u2026 But me, I don\u2019t believe that they will accept ever all of women\u2019s rights. You know, Yemen ratified CEDAW, but some issues are untouchable, nobody will touch them, because they will say that these rights are for men and are given by Allah. Even some women believe that\u2026 I don\u2019t want to generalize, but men always fight for women\u2019s rights if it doesn\u2019t get in the way of their own interests. Their own interests have to be prioritized, and then if women can get other rights \u2014it is fine [laughs]. That is why the Quran is interpreted in keeping with the interests of men. Who interprets the Quran? All of them are men. The preachers are men, so they give the community what they want, and they pass on the idea of the Quran and its verses based on their interests.\u201d33\n37My research findings suggest that the religious scholars, preachers and imams who were selected for and successfully passed the gender and human rights training workshops, organized by NGOs and IOs across Yemen, are able to accept women\u2019s rights and freedoms, and even become partners in promoting them, unless this implies a subversion of their own position within the hierarchy of patriarchal power. It means that certain women\u2019s rights are more easily accepted than others. In fact, Islamic jurisprudence recognizes many women\u2019s rights, but still promotes significant gender differences in freedoms and responsibilities in people\u2019s daily lives, for marriage and its dissolution. This, along with granting men privileges such as polygamy, unilateral divorce (\u1e6dal\u0101q) and a larger part of inheritance, constitutes a sensitive issue when dealing with Islamic leaders from CEDAW gender equality perspective. When talking about these issues, cultural and religious differences are frequently claimed to justify patriarchal models of gendered power relations. It seems like these cultural and religious claims merely serve as justification for women\u2019s oppression. Within this system women can obtain certain privileges and rights by coping, strategizing or bargaining with patriarchy. However, their strategies do not necessary mean the subversion of the whole structure of men\u2019s power. If social change only occurs at men\u2019s convenience, and in clear opposition to the real recognition and implementation of gender equality in rights, responsibilities, freedoms and opportunities, the patriarchal system will not collapse, but will be revived in a new form. Its survival depends on its capacity to extend within the limits of women\u2019s rights and freedoms. It can be useful at certain levels to promote gender equality by dealing with male Islamic religious leaders, scholars and preachers; however it is likely to have limited results in terms of real transformation of gender power relations and women\u2019s empowerment.\n38Through an analysis of selected gender development projects and in\u2011depth interviews with women\u2019s rights activists, I have tried to verify to what extent gender and development practice in Yemen is consistent with the current theory and policy on \u2018culture, gender equality and human development\u2019. I was particularly interested in analyzing the ways in which new developmental thought and policy reconsider Islam as a potential tool and means to promote women\u2019s rights and empowerment, and how it has been adapted and implemented in Yemen. I also paid attention to the ways in which women\u2019s rights activists were involved and dealt with issues of renegotiation of gender power relations and resignification of gender concepts in the light of Islamic feminism. The main research findings confirm a persistent gap between gender, culture and development theory and practice. Academic efforts and political statements hardly translate into effective action. Discourses in international development have changed, but initiatives on the ground are still very often guided by outdated developmental thought. Stereotypical representations of others and of their cultures as well as North\u2011South power relationships determine the main orientations in development work. Cultural considerations in Muslim countries have frequently been reduced to religious aspects only. Furthermore, my research findings suggest that there is still an inadequate understanding of how \u201cIslam\u201d may affect the empowerment or disempowerment of Yemeni women. Although gender and development projects created within an Islamic framework have been inspired by Islamic feminisms, they are not necessarily consistent with the political implications of promoting \u201cwomen\u2019s empowerment\u201d and \u201cgender equality\u201d. Once deployed in development, these concepts are used as buzzwords to get funding and justify development intervention. As a result, they easily lose their original feminist meaning during project implementation. Despite good intentions, many Yemen\u2011based projects relating to gender and Islam did not succeed in achieving their goals of gender transformation and women\u2019s empowerment. In my argumentation, the problem is that they ignored the question of power and undermined women\u2019s agency. These projects mainly consisted of training and social re\u2011education in woman\u2011friendly interpretations of the Quran and Sunna. They undoubtedly contributed to raising gender awareness and also provided useful arguments with which to defend women\u2019s human rights from an Islamic perspective. Nevertheless, access to information and knowledge does not necessarily guarantee that women\u2019s rights will be fully exercised and gender equality implemented. Raising awareness through training and workshops can be considered a first step in that direction, but certainly not the last. Unfortunately, a number of projects in Yemen end before moving past the beginning stages, hoping that social change will come about automatically, regardless of the shortage of effective strategies to transform patriarchal power structures. Despite the use of gender and development discourses, most of the projects mentioned in the article failed when they were being implemented, more specifically, they failed in applying the feminist strategic vision of gender and power transformations. They used an Islamic framework and got religious leaders involved as a strategy to promote women\u2019s rights and freedoms. However, little effort was made to critically analyse the possible dangers and assumptions that are behind that approach. My concern lies in privileging faith\u2011based approaches over more secular strategies to advocate women\u2019s rights in Yemen. In particular, there is a problem with the instrumentalization of religion to advance certain political agendas. The use of \u2018Islam\u2019, either by Islamic feminists or by opposing fundamentalist clerics, results in competing religious visions over gender relationships and women\u2019s rights. In fact, when dealing with \u2018Islam\u2019 and women\u2019s issues, it is necessary to take into consideration the power relations that shape and are re\u2011shaped by highly contextualized and dynamic aspects of Yemeni culture and politics, which determine the gender interests of the different social groups. Power relations are continuously overlooked in the process of mobilizing male religious leaders and scholars in development projects to advocate women\u2019s rights and enhance women\u2019s empowerment. Partnering with them without challenging patriarchal power structures means women\u2019s exclusion from religious leadership and other decision\u2011making positions, traditionally male\u2011dominated, remain unchanged and reproducing the status quo in Yemen.\n34 Personal interview with a woman\u2019s rights practitioner (W\u201115), Sana\u2019a, 2011/07/11.\n39Religious and cultural considerations need to be taken into account, but with close attention paid to power relations and their gender implications for bargaining power. Having male religious scholars, imams and other opinion\u2011makers as allies in efforts to enhance women\u2019s rights and gender equality is seen as politically necessary by Yemeni activists and development practitioners. However, due to the fact that funding allocations in collaboration with religious entities are often made at the expense of directly supporting women and women\u2019s movements, Yemeni women\u2019s rights activists find this strategy particularly controversial. As one of my interviewees said, \u201cby supporting and engaging religious leaders in gender and developmental projects, we also empower them.\u201d34 To be consistent with feminist meanings of gender and development, the priority of investment should go to empowering women rather than male religious leaders. Dealing with the latter yields unreliable results. Especially now, with the emerging women\u2019s movement as part of Yemen\u2019s Revolution of 2011\u20112012 there is a new opportunity to re\u2011engage with feminist goals. Although women\u2019s agency was internationally and locally recognized in the \u2018Arab Spring\u2019 and symbolically acknowledged by awarding the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize to Tawakkul Karm\u0101n, there is still a gap between this recognition and the feminist\u2011oriented empowerment of the women\u2019s movement. This very agency has framed women\u2019s ability to resist oppression in Yemen and lead cultural and social transformations. As soon as it engages within a strong feminist movement, it will also provide meaningful answers about the political strategies and creative power needed to successfully challenge gender inequalities in Yemen and shed light on how to overcome deep\u2011rooted patriarchal structures.\nAbu Lughod L.

It brought into the spotlight the need to integrate women into development projects not only as \u201cneedy\u201d beneficiaries, but above all as active agents. As a result, the women\u2019s productive contribution to development was made visible, and their reproductive role was downplayed. From a WID perspective, women\u2019s subordination was seen in terms of their exclusion from the marketplace, and their limited access to and control over resources. It was, therefore, assumed that if women were more fully brought into the productive sphere, not only would they make a positive contribution to development, but they would also be able to improve their status vis\u2011\u00e0\u2011vis men. By focusing on women alone, the WID approach failed to bring in men, and the question of male power over women. The GAD (or Gender and Development) approach emerged as a preferable alternative to WID, as it suggested the importance of power, conflict and gender relations in understanding women\u2019s subordination. An international commitment to GAD at the 1995 Beijing World Conference on Women has recognized it as a necessary consideration in current development policy and practice. It proposes two complementary strategies to be simultaneously addressed in order to tackle the root causes of gender inequalities: \u201cwomen\u2019s empowerment\u201d and \u201cgender mainstreaming\u201d. Both strategies are aimed at challenging persisting gender gaps and to subvert patriarchal structures of power. In general, programmes informed by a WID approach addressed women\u2019s practical needs by, for example, creating employment and income\u2011generating opportunities, improving access to credit and to education. In contrast, a GAD approach is aimed to meet both women\u2019s practical gender needs and more strategic gender needs by challenging existing gender role divisions and power relations.\n6 Personal Interview with a women\u2019s rights practitioner, a MWDAR project researcher (W\u20117), Sana\u00b4a, 2011/04/05.\n25 Gender analysis refers to \u201cthe systematic gathering and examination of information on gender differences and social relations in order to identify, understand and redress inequities based on gender\u201d (Reeves and Baden, 2000, p. 6).\n29 Dr Hilary Kalmbach, co\u2011author of Women, Leadership and Mosques: Changes in Contemporary Islamic Authority, http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2012/120309.html, accessed 25/02/2013.\n30 Zeinab Radwan and Farida Bennani do not usually use a \u1e25ij\u0101b, a headscarf, which is a practice that would hardly be accepted by religious conservatives since, according to conventional Islamic teachings, a Muslim woman should wear a veil and modest clothing.\nEwa Strzelecka, \u00ab Gender and Islam in Development Policy and Practice in Yemen \u00bb, Arabian Humanities [En ligne], 1 | 2013, mis en ligne le 23 mars 2013, consult\u00e9 le 15 f\u00e9vrier 2019.

        "raw_content": "Lecithin supports whole-body cellular health. In particular, it promotes neurotransmitter production, optimizing memory, mood and mental clarity.** Additionally, Lecithin works to:\nMaintain brain and nervous system health.**\nSupport respiratory health.**\nOptimize cardiovascular wellness.**\nFound in spinach, egg yolks, nuts, and animal products, lecithin is a phospholipid that optimizes cellular health in nearly every cell in the human body. It is a natural source of choline, the precursor to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is a chemical messenger in the brain that plays a critical role in memory, cognition, concentration, mental processing and reasoning. For this role, lecithin is most widely known as a brain-boosting nutrient.**\nLecithin has been extensively researched for its role in optimizing cognitive function. Studies have suggested that supplementation with this phospholipid may significantly help with memory issues and cognitive problems. Its ability to optimize emotional health in those with stress-related disorders has also been investigated. In one study, researchers found that emotional health was significantly improved and stress hormones were significantly diminished in those taking a soy lecithin supplement.**\nAdditional research has found that patients experiencing cognitive decline may be deficient in brain enzymes that convert choline into the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This finding has led researchers to suggest that supplemental lecithin (which supplies choline) may be beneficial for those with cognitive decline.**\nLecithin supplementation may also encourage good cardiovascular health. It is believed to influence blood cholesterol levels, and is also considered to be a vasodilator that encourages healthy circulation. One trial found that this soy-derived phospholipid was associated with healthy endothelial function \u2013 a key marker of cardiovascular wellness that refers to how well blood vessel linings constrict and relax.**\nLecithin Products\nLecithin is most often found in capsule, tablet or softgel form. It is also available in granule form, to be used as a food additive, and can sometimes be found in liquid forms as well.**\nLecithin Directions for Use\nAlways consult with your primary care physician before starting any type of nutritional supplementation.

User management is a core part to any directory service and is a basic security essential for any organization. User management enables admins to control user access and on-board and off-board users to and from IT resources. Subsequently a directory service will then authenticate, authorize, and audit user access to IT resources based on what the IT admin had dictated.\nTraditionally, user management has been grounded with on-prem servers, databases, and closed virtual private networks (VPN). However, recent trends are seeing a shift towards cloud-based identity and access management (IAM), granting administrators even greater control over digital assets.\nIn the beginning, there was Identity and Access Management\nDevelopers have always recognized the need for user access management since the initial development of digital networks. Prior to the public internet, networks of computers were connected solely on a proprietary basis and largely between universities. As you may imagine, IT admins and developers did not want unauthorized parties to have access to proprietary digital assets. Rather, they wanted to limit access to only those approved for use. Thus, user management was born.\nAs the internet began to mature and became public, this notion of limiting traffic persisted and was the primary driving force behind various authentication protocols like LDAP and RADIUS. Microsoft took it a step further when they created Active Directory \u00ae (AD), a product designed to compile user data and provision access to various IT resources based on need. In a Windows dominated ecosystem, AD remained the primary user management platform for decades. Currently, a new wave of cloud innovation has again changed the game in user management. Directory-as-a-Service\u00ae, the first cloud directory, is a great example of a modern take on user management for the cloud era.\nWhy Manage User Identities?\nSimply put, user management solves the problem of managing user access to various resources. For example, the marketing team generally requires access to different resources than the accounting team. Further, an employee on the marketing likely doesn\u2019t need access to internal financial systems and vice versa, a finance employee isn\u2019t requiring access to Salesforce or Marketo. User management enables IT administrators to manage resources and provision users based on need and role.\nRecent innovations in cloud technology have sparked a revolution in cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform among others. Coupled with web applications, users have more IT resources available at their fingertips than ever before, which is why user management has never been more essential. While there are various approaches to user management, one thing is certain \u2013 managing user identities is the foundation of identity access management.\nDirectory Services for Everyone\nAt the most basic level, Directory-as-a-Service\u00ae was created for just this purpose \u2014 to manage user identities and to form secure relationships with the resources they need to get the job done. User identities are like the seed from which roots grow deep to reach IT resources critical for an employee to grow and flourish, and fed by information like rain from the cloud.

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Collections \u203a Encyclopedia \u203a Concubine of a Levite: Midrash and Aggadah\nConcubine of a Levite: Midrash and Aggadah\nThe story of the concubine at Gibeah is one of the most shocking narratives in the Bible. The Tosefta attests that these verses are read in public, along with their Aramaic Targum, that is, they are interpreted during the public reading of the Torah (Tosefta Megillah 3:33). The Talmud explains that although a matter that publicly tarnishes the honor of the tribe of Benjamin should not properly be aired, the tribe\u2019s reputation is not a consideration in this case (BT Megillah 25b). The Tosefta and the Talmud apparently find educational value in this narrative, and feel that something important is to be learned even from such a troubling occurrence.\nThe midrash relates to the concubine sympathetically and positively, while the Rabbis direct their criticism at her husband and at the people of his generation. The story begins with the concubine of a Levite who left him and returned to her father\u2019s house. Jud. 19:2 relates: \u201cOnce his concubine played the harlot with him, leaving him for her father\u2019s house.\u201d The Rabbis understand this not as promiscuous activity on her part; rather, she fled to her father\u2019s house because her husband was angry with her. Two Rabbis disagree concerning the cause of his ire. R. Ebiathar says he found a fly in a dish that she cooked for him, and R. Yonatan argues that he found a hair there (BT Gittin 6b). This disagreement, which was intended to find fault with the Levite, stresses his improper behavior toward his concubine, even before the events that took place in Gibeah of Benjamin. This depiction explains why his father-in-law (the concubine\u2019s father) feared to return his daughter to her spouse, and why he postponed their departure from his home time after time, trying with all his might to persuade them to remain (Jud. 19:4\u20139). The Rabbinical exposition teaches that the Levite preferred his personal benefit (the proper dish) to his spouse\u2019s welfare and their relationship. This behavior precedes the scene at Gibeah in which the man sends his concubine to the crowd (and eventually, to her death) in order to save himself.\nThe Talmud relates that after the two Rabbis disagreed on this point, R. Ebiathar encountered Elijah. R. Ebiathar asked the prophet: \u201cWhat is God doing?\u201d Elijah replied: \u201cHe is occupied now with the matter of the concubine at Gibeah.\u201d R. Ebiathar continued to ask: \u201cAnd what is He saying?\u201d Elijah answered: \u201cThus says God: My son Ebiathar says such-and such, and My son Yonatan says such-and-such.\u201d R. Ebiathar exclaimed: \u201cHeaven forbid! Can there be any doubt before God [does God not know what happened, that he mentions the two differing views]?\u201d Elijah told him: \u201cBoth are the word of the living God\u201d (BT Gittin loc. cit.). This midrash stresses the tolerance to be shown to the view of another Torah scholar, even when disagreeing with him. The phrase \u201cBoth are the word of the living God\u201d usually means that there is truth in each of the dissenting views, and that each reflects something of the divine. The meaning is reversed here: \u201cthe word of the living God\u201d portrays God, who is engaged with the two opposing positions, and learns of the event from both. The narrative of the concubine at Gibeah functions here as the negative embodiment of this idea of harmony between contenders, since it is concerned with a quarrel between a man and his wife and a civil war between Benjamin and the other tribes. The importance of Israelite unity and of marital accord is highlighted, specifically on the background of this gruesome tale, when God makes peace between two sages.\nThe Talmud continues to ask how the positions of both R. Ebiathar and R. Yonatan could be correct. It answers that the Levite first found a fly in the bowl, but was not angry with his concubine; afterwards, he discovered a hair, and that did infuriate him. The Rabbis learned from this incident that a person should never terrorize his household, for in this narrative such terror resulted in the death of tens of thousands of Israelites in the ensuing warfare (Jud. 20; BT Gittin loc. cit.). This harsh dictum presents what happened within the narrow family unit as reflective of society as a whole. Marital peace is the basis for every properly functioning society, and this midrash paints for the reader a picture of what the Rabbis deemed proper family life: life without fear between husband and wife, in which the husband forgoes his honor for the sake of tranquility and domestic harmony.\nIn addition to pointing an accusing finger at the husband, the Rabbis also sharply indict the leadership of his generation, the Sanhedrin and the High Priest Phinehas ben Eleazar. The midrash notes that this incident occurred during the time of the Judge Othniel the Kenizzite and during the time of Micah (Seder Olam Rabbah, chap. 12). The Rabbis perceive a connection between all the sins of that generation, which pertained both to the relations between man and God (the statue of Micah [Michyahu, Jud. 17:1\u201313]) and to interpersonal matters (the concubine at Gibeah) (BT Sanhedrin 103b). They also note that the High Priest Phinehas ben Eleazar lived during that period, but did not protest against the transgressors (JT Megillah 1:10, 72a).\nAnother midrash finds the generation\u2019s leaders\u2014the Great Sanhedrin and Phinehas ben Eleazar\u2014responsible for the death of seventy thousand Israelites in the ensuing civil war, since they were remiss in their duties. They should have tied iron ropes around their loins, lifted their garments above their knees, and gone through all the towns of Israel teaching proper conduct: one day in Bethel, another in Hebron, and a third in Jerusalem, during the first, second, and third year, until Israel had settled in its land. However, they did not do so; rather, when the Israelites entered the land of Canaan, each went to his vineyard and his wine, said \u201cIt is well with me,\u201d and engaged less in Torah study. When they committed such ugly and improper acts in Gibeah of Benjamin, God desired to destroy the entire world. He said: \u201cI gave My Torah only to those who will read it, study it, and learn proper behavior from it.\u201d As punishment for this behavior in Gibeah, the Israelites assembled and went forth to war; seventy thousand (from all the tribes of Israel, including Benjamin) were killed at Gibeah, and the leaders of the generation were responsible for their deaths (Seder Eliyahu Rabbah, chap. 12).\nIn the view of the Rabbis, the name \u201cBen-oni\u201d that Rachel had given to her son Benjamin was realized in the episode of the concubine at Gibeah. When Rachel gave birth to him, she saw that he was exceedingly delicate [mitonen] and feared that he would die, and therefore she named him \u201cBen-oni [\u201cson of my strength].\u201d The tribe of Benjamin was almost annihilated in the war at Gibeah in Benjamin, which left only six hundred surviving males from the tribe (Midrash Aggadah [ed. Buber] Num. 26:38).\nMore on: Marriage, Bible, Midrash and Aggadah, Talmud\nMore on Concubine of a Levite: Midrash and Aggadah\nEncyclopedia: Concubine of a Levite: Bible\nKadari, Tamar. \"Concubine of a Levite: Midrash and Aggadah.\" Jewish Women: A Comprehensive Historical Encyclopedia. 1 March 2009.

        "raw_content": "My patients often ask how much fat can be removed during their liposuction surgery. The limit of fat removal allowed by law in Florida within a 24-hour period is four liters (about a gallon) for liposuction when liposuction is the only procedure, and one liter (about a quart) when liposuction is combined with another procedure such as a tummy tuck. The amount removed will, of course, depend on your needs as well.\nLiposuction is not a replacement for weight loss, rather it is for contouring trouble spots on the body that you have not been able to reduce by diet and exercise. Liposuction is not about removing pounds of fat, rather it is about shape change. Surprisingly, a person\u2019s weight is likely to remain the same before and after surgery.\nOptimal liposuction results are achieved by individuals who are at or near their ideal weight and have a BMI in a normal range. If your BMI is 30 or under, I think you can be a good candidate.\nI would love to answer any questions you may still have.

        "raw_content": "Genre & Age Group: Contemporary, science fiction, young adult\nBefore the asteroid we let ourselves be defined by labels:\nThe athlete, the outcast, the slacker, the overachiever.\nBut then we all looked up and everything changed.\nThey said it would be here in two months. That gave us two months to leave our labels behind. Two months to become something bigger than what we\u2019d been, something that would last even after the end.\nTwo months to really live.\nQuite honestly, I don\u2019t know what it was that drew me into this book. Maybe it was the intriguing sci-fi element, or maybe it was just a desire to try something different. All I know for sure is that something captured my eye and reeled me in.\nI enjoyed this book quite a bit, but there were still some things that bothered me about it which I will touch on in this review. Aside from that, the good about We All Looked Up far outweighed the bad.\nTo quickly summarize the novel, it is about four teens who at first do not have much in common, but when it is announced that a meteorite would strike and end the world in a mere two months, the four form an alliance and fight for their lives.\nI have not had time to write the review for this book until now, and I read it almost a month ago, so some details may be a bit on the fuzzy side. Anyway, many of the characters in this story were great, but some were simply unmemorable as well. (If I cannot remember a character after a week, there is no way that I could after a month!)\nSo first, we have Andy, who is hip, cool, and never lets anything get him down. Then there\u2019s Eliza, whose father is very sick and on the verge of death, so she is in a rather fragile state, both emotionally and physically. There\u2019s also Anita, who feels pressured by her parents to always be #1 in everything, and lastly, Peter, whose bland character it is hard to make comments about. All four characters were relatable, and I could see how any reader can identify with some of the struggles they were going through. As well, I have to say that I loved the unlikely team they formed!\nThe plot of this book was smooth and fluent, but the ending, not to spoil it, was open-ended and thus not my favourite. I liked the morals about teamwork and self-improvement, and they were shown in this book when the four main characters bonded and became their better selves before the world\u2019s end.\nIn conclusion, We All Looked Up was a good novel. I liked many of its characters and, for the most part, its plot, but some details needed to be built on a little more, if you get what I\u2019m saying. I would definitely recommend this one to readers looking for a contemporary novel with a little bit of a sci-fi twist. This book that is full of morals and friendship is yours to devour!\n*3.75 Stars*\nTagged 3.75 Stars, Blogging, Book, Book Review, Book Reviews, Books, Contemporary, High School, Library, Library Book, Meteor, Meteorite, Reading, Review, Reviews, School, School Library, Sci-Fi, Science Fiction, Teen, Teen Fiction, Teens, Tommy Wallach, We All Looked Up, Writing, YA, Young Adult\nPrevious postJune 2017 Book Haul\nNext postTop Ten Thursday #55\ud83c\udde8\ud83c\udde6\n7 thoughts on \u201cWe All Looked Up Review\u201d\nI got this book from the library a few weeks ago and it\u2019s been on my nightstand ever since.

        "raw_content": "Karsh\u2014Rapho/Photo Researchers\n(1875\u20131965).\u2002By the time he was 30 years old, Albert Schweitzer was known as a clergyman and musician. He was head of a theological college, pastor of a large church, and a leading interpreter of the organ music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Schweitzer\u2019s deeply religious nature led him to put these achievements behind him. At 30 he entered medical school. As a medical missionary he set up a tiny hospital in Lambar\u00e9n\u00e9, in French Equatorial Africa, in what is now the republic of Gabon.\nAlthough he made his home in the jungle, Schweitzer was not forgotten. He wrote books on theology and philosophy. In The Philosophy of Civilization, published in 1923, and in other books, he explained his belief in reverence for life as the key to understanding the universe and the human mind and spirit. For Schweitzer reverence for life included not only human life but also all other living things.\nSchweitzer was born on Jan. 14, 1875, in Kaysensberg, Upper Alsace, then in Germany. His father and mother were French. Even as a child Schweitzer was sensitive to the feelings of others. He insisted that he be no better fed or dressed than the poorest of his schoolmates. After attending the village school he entered the Gymnasium at M\u00fclhausen. He had begun music lessons at home, and at the Gymnasium he continued his studies on the organ. After graduation he studied for a time in Paris with the noted French organist Charles-Marie Widor. Schweitzer, however, decided against music as a career, and in 1893 he entered the University of Strasbourg. He made two major contributions, however, to the organ world: In 1906 he published a booklet, The Art of German and French Organ Builders and Players, which is now regarded as the original stimulus for the classical organ revival; and with Widor he published the widely used performing edition of Bach\u2019s organ works (1912\u201314).\nSchweitzer earned a doctorate in philosophy in 1899 and a doctorate in theology a year later. He was appointed pastor of St. Nicholas Church in Strasbourg and later became head of the Theological College of St. Thomas. Then in 1905 Schweitzer decided to study medicine. In 1912 he and H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Bresslau were married, and his wife studied nursing to help her husband. In 1913 Schweitzer received his medical degree. The next spring the couple sailed for Africa.\nDuring World War I Schweitzer and his wife, though French, were interned in France as German subjects. Illness kept him from returning to Africa until 1924. Meanwhile he raised money for the African hospital by giving lectures and recitals. He visited the United States in 1949 to speak in Aspen, Colo., at the Goethe bicentennial. He was awarded the 1952 Nobel peace prize for his efforts on behalf of the brotherhood of nations. Schweitzer died in Lambar\u00e9n\u00e9 on Sept. 4, 1965.",

The team had an option for 2013 based upon certain performance criteria being met, which it has achieved comfortably.\nDespite not winning a race on his return, Raikkonen has impressed with six podium finishes and has attained remarkable consistency, scoring points in every race except the Chinese Grand Prix and completing every racing lap in 2012 so far.\nLotus and Kimi Raikkonen Press Statements\nBetter the Devil You Know \u2013 Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen Confirmed for 2013\nLotus F1 Team is pleased to announce that Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen will continue to drive for the team in 2013.\nKimi, who currently stands in third position in the FIA Formula 1 World Drivers\u2019 Championship, returned to the sport in 2012 after two seasons away and immediately showcased his pace, stepping on the podium six times so far this season \u2013 in Bahrain, twice in Spain (Barcelona and Valencia), Germany, Hungary and Belgium.\nKimi has already started giving his input on next year\u2019s car, the E21, and will play an active role in the whole design process.\nKimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen: \u201cI think my return to Formula 1 has gone pretty well and the team has done a very good job all year so far. To be honest, I didn\u2019t expect to be fighting for the Drivers\u2019 Championship this season when you look at where the team was in 2011, so it has been great to be on the podium so many times and to score points on a regular basis.

From the first time he sat in the car this year it was clear he had lost none of his pace or technical feedback and we have been rewarded by a focused and motivated driver all season. For Lotus F1 Team to be fighting for such strong championship positions this year is in no small part attributed to Kimi\u2019s talent and experience of racing. It was a natural conclusion for us to confirm that we will be harnessing his abilities for next season.\u201d\nCategories F1, Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen, PR, Media, Sponsor, Quotes on Kimi, Video\n4 thoughts on \u201cOfficial: Kimi re-signs with Lotus for 2013\u201d\nThe ONLY good thing about Kimi staying at Lotus is that we will get to see him again for another whole year \ud83d\ude09\nLotus have gone backwards since the break.

        "raw_content": "August 27, 2007 in apologetics, apostasy, Bible, christianity, Christians, Church, discernment, God, religion, spiritual growth, Uncategorized\nFirst and foremost\u2026be a fruit inspector looking for true doctrine.\nI like to think discernment starts with one\u2019s self. You do have to be right with God. Not just a believer but totally surrendered to Him. 24/7. I also learned that Christians can be deceived. How is it that Christians can be deceived? It is because they may not love the truth or that they are not familiar with the Word of God.\nSelf-examination is difficult but this must be first dealt with. If you will not discern what is wrong with your own life, then you will never be able to discern the spirit of another.\nWe are to test all teachings, prophecies, and prophets. People who speak for the Lord\u2026 should bear the fruit of the spirit. The fruit is not just good works. Look for the fruit of true doctrine. If you only look at good works, then you may be open to deception because even non-Christians can do many good works.\nMany have told me that they were misled because they got lazy and no longer checked what they were being taught by their leaders or the books they were reading, against the Bible. So this is imperative.\nDiscernment is also one of the spiritual gifts. This spiritual gift of the Holy Spirit is the ability to distinguish between the spirit of truth and the spirit of error, between holiness and evil. It can be a sense you have about someone or the Holy Spirit will give you a warning about a situation or a person.\nI have had the experience of discernment especially when needed. Not long ago when a so-called \u201cprophet\u201d began to criticize and persecute me, the Lord let me \u201csense\u201d his spirit which was cruel and dark, and then let me \u201csee\u201d his hatred in a dream. It took awhile to shake-off this evil from me, but i have been praying for this man ever since.\nAs you walk with the Lord he will guide you through all things. By his Word, you can test all things. As your relationship with the Lord deepens and matures so will your discernment because his Holy Spirit will bear witness to these things.\nWhen you face a certain situation, pray about it and ask the Lord to grant you discernment. Spend time with Him in prayer and worship.\nThe Bible is the key to truth..Read it and read it again.. It is the manual for how to live. It comforts and ministers to you. It is protection against deception, as all things are to be tested against the Bible.\nIt is essential in these times of spiritual deception that we ask the Lord for the spiritual gifts and put-on the spiritual armor of God. The Word is both an offensive (sword) and defensive (armor) weapon.\nII Corinthians 6:7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and the left.\nEphesians 6:17 \u2026and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:\nThe purpose of the gifts of the Holy Spirit such as discernment is meant for the good of the body of Christ. We are to use our gifts to edify and strengthen others.\nI Corinthians 14:12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.\nSo it is okay to want these gifts and to pray for them. Just remember that the power of these gifts is not of yourself, but it is the power of the Holy Spirit. Do not touch this power. The power is God\u2019s glory\u2026 not man\u2019s.\nSo to discern man\u2019s truth against God\u2019s truth:\nPray for the gift and guidance of the Holy Spirit and then compare what man says and does against the Word of God in the Bible.\nI like this prayer by A.W. Tozer:\n\u201cLord, may I be one of those \u2018whose souls have been illuminated by the Holy Ghost.\u2019 Grant to me \u2018the blessed gift of knowing.\u2019 Then be pleased to use me for Your glory today. Amen.\u201d\nFinding hope in Him\nGreat post! We must be filled with the Truth before we can recognize falsehood.\nKeep on encouraging your readers to read, read, and read some more. Paul says that the Knowledge of the Truth leads to Godliness. (Titus 1:1) Godliness leads to discernment. We definitely need more of that in the world today!\nThat\u2019s so true Kim. If I hadn\u2019t listened to the nudgings and promptings of the Holy Spirit, I\u2019d be up to my eyeballs in contemplative prayer right now. He warned me in so many ways, I could not possibly ignore Him, but one of the ways was through scripture that I had learned earlier which was brought to my mind at the right times. I have often wondered why so many Christians are falling for this deception, but I think you nailed it\u2026they do not know the Word of God due to laziness! So they fall for anything with scripture in it, because they don\u2019t really know what it means. I am so thankful for the 3 years of Precepts Inductive Bible study classes I had taken prior to being introduced to the new spiritual formation. It took root, and kept me grounded in the Word.\nThe Lord brings scripture to mind for me also when He wants to speak His word to me, or \u201cnudge\u201d me in the right direction. Knowing scripture is also \u201cknowing\u201d his voice.\nHey Ronda\u2026\nTitus 1:1 is a great verse. I just read the entire chapter before going off to work. Keep up the good work.\nI think I\u2019m a fruit inspector looking for true doctrine and I found it form this article from Kim so thanks Kim for this great post.\n\u00ab BSF \u2013 Bible Study Fellowship\nHarry, Yoda, and Yoga from Marsha West \u00bb",

        "raw_content": "A Brief History of Bonifacio Global City\nBGC: The Definition of Youth, Passion, and Progress\nIn recent years, Bonifacio Global City has become a common ground for people from different walks of life, from passionate artists and aspiring musicians to expats and businessmen who want to change the game. BGC has evolved drastically over the years, going from a multi-hectare landmass dedicated to military operations, to the premier business district in the Philippines for both recognized multinationals and innovative startups .\nEarly History of BGC\nBonifacio Global City used to be a part of a large military reserve that the United States government acquired in 1902. The military base was called Fort McKinley, named after then-president William McKinley. This area served as the headquarters of multiple organizations, such as the Philippine Scouts and the Philippine Division of the U.S. Army.\nFort McKinley acted as a major stronghold for the Philippine Army during WWII. The USAFFE headquarters (United States Army Forces in the Far East) and a large portion of the Philippine Division were stationed at Fort McKinley. In addition, the National Defense Act of 1935 which created an independent Philippine Army also paved the way for specialized artillery training to be conducted in the fort.\nTo this day, Fort Bonifacio remains the home of the Philippine Army. The Philippine Navy would later call the fort their home as well.\nIMPORTANT EVENTS ACROSS BGC'S HISTORY\nOn July 4, 1946, the United States relinquished full control of many Philippine territories back to the Republic of the Philippines except for their military bases. Nearly three years later on May 14, 1949, the Philippine government received full jurisdiction and possession of Fort McKinley and renamed the area Fort Bonifacio.\nFormer Pateros Mayor Nestor Ponce filed an objection letter on June 23, 1978 after a cadastral mapping of Metro Manila showed that Fort Bonifacio was not part of Pateros. In 1986, former President Ferdinand Marcos issued Proclamation No. 2475 which says that Fort Bonifacio is in Makati and it's open for dispute. In February 7, 1995, the Bonifacio Land Development Corporation (BLDC) became the Bases Conversion and Development Authority's (BCDA) development partner.\nIn 2003, Ayala Land, Inc. and Evergreen Holdings, Inc. purchased a controlling stake in BLDC. Today, the two companies along with the BCDA control the Fort Bonifacio Development Corporation, the organization that manages the master planning of Bonifacio Global City. Today, the area boasts multiple developments, such as Bonifacio High Street, Forbes Town Center, Uptown Bonifacio, and other high-end projects.\nBonifacio Global City is experiencing continuous growth due to the many additional projects in development within the area. One of these projects is McKinley West, a 34.5-hectare township located in Taguig and is just a five minute drive outside of BGC. McKinley West is home to several office buildings, including Robinsons Cyber Sigma, which houses the country's largest flexible workspace.\nIf you require a private office or coworking space in BGC, KMC can provide you with an extensive list of managed facilities in the district. We have the largest network of serviced offices in the Philippines, and each office space can be customized to meet the demands of companies of any size and in any industry.\nContact us today if you're looking for an instant office solution in BGC.",

        "raw_content": "Woman claims 9-year-old groped her at Brooklyn deli; surveillance video proves otherwise\nNEW YORK \u2014 A New York City woman is under fire after calling 911 on a young child, claiming he had groped her inside a Brooklyn deli, according to WPIX.\nThe incident, which has sparked a firestorm on social media, happened Wednesday at the Sahara Deli Market on Albemarle Road in Flatbush.\nThe woman, identified as Teresa Klein, was being rung up at the front counter when the child walked by wearing a large backpack.\nAccording to Klein, the boy \u201cgrabbed my ass,\u201d prompting her to call 911.\nVideo of the exchange outside the deli when Klein confronted the child and his mother was later posted on Facebook.\nAs the woman proceeds to yell at the family, the children weep and attract a crowd of bystanders shocked at what they are seeing.\nJason LittleJohn took the video and posted it online.\n\u201cHow could she be sexually assaulted by a 9-year-old child who is walking by,\u201d he told WPIX. \u201cHe was so traumatized by the situation he started crying, his sister started crying.\u201d\nKlein was dubbed \u201cCornerstore Caroline\u201d by social media users, the video itself went viral shortly after it was posted with over 6 million views as of Friday evening.\nSurveillance video obtained by WPIX from inside the Sahara Deli appears to vindicate the young boy, clearly showing him walking by with his mother directly behind him as they exit the store.\nMeanwhile, the woman at the center of the controversy is sticking to her account. Klein spoke exclusively with WPIX outside her home where she says she\u2019s been harassed after the video went viral.\n\u201cI was standing at the counter, and I was sexually assaulted,\u201d she said. \"I understand how it looks but she escalated and then I lost my temper at her not at that child.\u201d\nAccusing the boy\u2019s mother of threatening her \u2013 in person and later in a voicemail \u2013 Klein made numerous accusations, even saying during the now-viral altercation that it was the child\u2019s mother who claimed she was a police officer despite the footage clearly showing Klein declaring \u201cI am a cop.\u201d\n\u201cI did not say that, if I did say that I would be surprised,\u201d she said.\nThe interview was interrupted by residents who said they\u2019d had enough of Klein, who they say has a history of calling the police.\n\u201cMaybe I could sit down with the young lady who got in my face,\" Klein said. \"Maybe we could do the interview together. I hold no grudges whatsoever.\u201d\nDespite Klein insisting that she filed a police report on the day in question, officials with the NYPD confirmed to WPIX that no report pertaining to the incident exists.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 Helvetica \u2013 Sean Mirts\nExtra Credit Helvetica Film Blog Post Jan Conrad Rac \u2192\nPosted on November 27, 2018\tby juannolazcoblog\nAfter watching the documentary Helvetica, I have come to understand the controversy behind the typeface and why it is both revered as well as hated. To understand why this type has such a strong effect on people and designers, the documentary first dissects the anatomy of this type. Helvetica is clear, modern, and neutral, which in turn makes it extremely versatile. The documentary describes how the type is all about the figure ground relationship. The negative space tightly surrounds each character securely which creates a strong statement in the words formed by the letters.\nFrom the film \u2018Helvetica\u2019 directed by Gary Hustwit\nHelvetica was the answer to the issue of 1950\u2019s advertising being too flashy, cluttered, colorful, with zany hand lettering and too many different typefaces being used that didn\u2019t need to be there. Companies transitioned to Helvetica to clean up their brand. The type transformed their image into something professional that makes a clear statement. A great example of this in the documentary was Coca-Cola going from cursive wedding typography and an extensive description accompanied by an image of a family, to a clear image of the product and the company\u2019s name and slogan in Helvetica. This was also one of the most impactful parts of the documentary for me because I am an advertising major and the logic behind that decision struck me as brilliant. I also currently hold a graphic design position on campus so this technique and mentality can be applied to my work. Governments and corporations love Helvetica because it makes them seem neutral and efficient, while the smoothness of the letters make them seem human. These are qualities they want because they come off as more accessible, transparent and accountable despite an image of seeming oppressive and authoritarian. It was used so widely that it became part of every-day life in America. It became basic and lost its visual potency. People began using more expressive typefaces as a form of pushback and tried using other sans serif fonts that could be a substitute for Helvetica. Nowadays people consider Helvetica to be a basic font and is often seen as boring. The type has become such a large part of every-day life that people need something different in order to be eye catching. However, many campaigns continue to use the type because when used correctly, it can be just as effective as when it was introduced.\nThis documentary provided valuable insight into the world of typography and graphic design and I have learned a lot that I can apply to my type and poster design. One of the biggest takeaways I had was that just because something is legible doesn\u2019t mean it communicates, and more importantly it doesn\u2019t mean it communicates the right thing. Remembering to be intentional with every decision made throughout the design process is the best way to create something meaningful. If an artist does not have a reason or significance behind the creative decisions they make, then viewers won\u2019t receive a message from the piece.",

Edited by Henry L. Barnett, M.D. London, Butterworths; New York, AppletonCentury-Crofts, 1968. $24.50, 1847 pages, illustrated. This is a very large textbook of pediatrics of nearly two thousand pages. It is the fourteenth edition of Holt\u2019s Pediatrics which has been the standard American textbook for over half a century. Edited by Dr. Barnett, who has collected a large number of outstanding contributors, every aspect of pediatrics is very adequately covered and in spite of its size the book is very much up to date. The pediatric surgical reader will be especially interested in the excellent chapters on surgical conditions contributed by such authorities as Dr. Ravitch, Dr. Santulli, and Dr. Hiatt. Although the editor hopes in the preface that the book may be of use to medical students, the size of the volume makes it primarily a reference book for postgraduates interested in pediatrics. It is, perhaps, unfortunate that there are not more illustrations in this excellent book but it is obvious that additional illustrations would not only have increased the price considerably but would also have made the very large volume quite unmanageable. This book is highly recommended to anyone interested in the science and practice of pediatrics. --P. P. Rickham. PAEDIATRIC UROLOGY. Edited by D. Innes Williams. London, Butterworths, 1968. g8.10. Od, 585 pages, illustrated. It is nearly twenty years since the last textbooks on pediatric urology were published by Twistington Higgins in England and Campbell in the United States. The appearance of a new textbook on this subject is, therefore, both welcome and timely. The choice of Mr. D. I. Williams as editor of this book is most fortunate and the very high standard which we have come to expect from his writings has been more than maintained in the present volume. His choice of contributors: two pediatric urologists (D. I. Williams and J. H. Johns-\nton), two pediatric surgeons (J. E. S. Scott and H. B. Eckstein), two pediatricians (G. H. Newns and D. G. Cottom), one nephrologist (D. N. S. Kerr), and one radiologist (A. R. Chrispin) has been a happy one. During the last twenty years pediatric urology has developed so rapidly that there must have been a great temptation to write a very large book on this subject. This would have been unwieldy and very expensive and the editor is to be congratulated that he has concentrated the immense material and made each chapter as succinct as possible. The book is written for surgeons and basic surgical technics are not described. Illustrations have been kept to a minimum, which is regrettable but unavoidable if the volume of the book had to be restricted. This is not a textbook which can be glanced through quickly, but it is a mine of information. It is difficult and perhaps unfair to single out some of the chapters for special comment, but the chapter on vesicoureteric reflux by J. H. Johnston, the male bladder neck and urethra by D. I. Williams, glomerular disorders by D. N. S. Kerr, and abnormalities of sexual development by G. H. Newns and D. I. Williams are especially excellent. In recent years there has been some discussion on both sides of the Atlantic as to whether urologists or pediatric surgeons should carry out the urology of childhood. The answer should obviously be the man who can do it best. Whether it is a pediatric surgeon with special training in urology or a urologist who has had special training in pediatrics does not really matter, but whoever it is the man who wants to look after urologic conditions in childhood must be prepared to spend a large proportion of his clinical time in this pursuit. This book shows clearly that the conditions encountered are so numerous and often so complicated, that the surgical technic is so intricate and the pre- and post-operative care has to be so meticulous that anybody who wants to dabble occasionally in pediatric urology is well advised to leave these cases to those who are prepared to spend much of their time in the study of this fascinating subject.-P. P. Rickham.",

        "raw_content": "Manchester City vs Southampton Prediction and Match Preview\nManchester City returns to Premier League action on Sunday as they host Southampton at the Etihad Stadium. This is after their Carabao Cup fixture against Fulham where they thrashed them 2 goals to nil. The Citizens have not tasted loss this season and are leading the league with 26 points. They remain the highest scoring team in the Premier League.\nManchester City have been in dire form and have won just twice in 22 subsequent Premiership matches. Their last match was seemingly a hard fixture against Tottenham but they thrashed the Spurs with only one goal. They will come into this home game with the aim of continuing their unbeaten run in their campaign to lift the league title at the end of the season.\nKyler Walker, Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva, Rihad Mahrez and Sergio Aguero were among those to start on the bench on Thursday in the EFL Cup clash with Fulham. Additionally, David Silva was left out completely. We should see them feature in this home game on Sunday.\nThe Saints failed to convert most of their chances to goals in their last EPL fixture at home against Newcastle last weekend. They are just 2 points from the relegation zone and may not get the chance to add some point to their tally in this matchup.\nSouthampton have played out goalless draws in their last two EPL matches. Keeping a clean sheet in two matches may sound an achievement for the Saints. However, it is self-damaging since they have not climbed to their rightful place in the league standings. They will truly be daunted as they hit the road to Etihad Stadium because they know the kind of opposition they have to measure up against.\nManchester City vs Southampton: Head-to-Head\nManchester City has won the last has won the last 3 consecutive h2h meetings.\nIn the last 5 h2h encounters, the Citizens have won 3 matches, Southampton have won once and one draw.\nSouthampton has not won in any of the last 6 h2h meetings at the Etihad.\nManchester City vs Southampton: Prediction\nThis looks like a sure win for the home side. However, they need to approach the game without self-confidence. The visitors will employ a more defensive mode of play and will make it hard for the citizens to clinch a win easily. Remember, they have been able to keep a clean sheet in their last two games and may want to maintain the same, although it may not work out! The home team will win this one but we cannot see them net more than 3 goals.\nManchester City vs Southampton: Betting Tips\nManchester total goals under 3.5 goals @ 3/5 (1.60).",

        "raw_content": "Some items from Radley Balko\u2019s Trump Watch\nPresident Trump accuses another political opponent of committing crimes. He of course has a long history of this, going back to the campaign. It\u2019s easy to get used to this sort of thing. But we shouldn\u2019t lose sight of what\u2019s at stake. The chief law enforcement official in the country repeatedly accusing his critics and opponents of criminality is a dangerous thing. And it will be all the more dangerous if he begins doing it to his potential 2020 opponents.\nImmigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrest a Kansas chemistry teacher who was about to take his daughter to school. He came here 30 years ago and overstayed his visa. He has no criminal record. He has three children. The Trump administration is preparing to deport him to Bangladesh.\nThe administration has also deported a Detroit father of two who was brought to the United States at age 10 and has also been here for almost 30 years. He and his wife have spent more than $100,000 trying to obtain legal citizenship for him. According to his supporters, he has no criminal record and has paid taxes every year.\nIn fact, arresting undocumented parents as they drop their children off at school seems to be an increasingly common tactic.\nOther recent deportations or arrests and pending deportations: A green card veteran who served two tours of duty in Afghanistan, suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and was brought here at age 8 (he had a felony drug conviction); a single mom with three children who are U.S. citizens (her only crime was to lie about her status on a driver\u2019s license application \u2014 her husband was deported for the same offense); two Salvadoran brothers who were detained when one went to notify immigration officials that he was just given a scholarship to play college soccer; a host of pro-immigration activists; and a Palestinian father of four who was brought here at age 17 and owned a successful small business in Youngstown, Ohio;\nMeanwhile, Trump\u2019s pick to head up ICE said that politicians in sanctuary cities should be arrested and charged with crimes.\nWhy fears about \u201cchain migration\u201d are mostly a myth.\nThe Treasury Department may soon lift Obama administration-era protections for banks that do business with marijuana businesses in states where the drug is legal.\nWe noted this story previously, but it\u2019s worth archiving in Trump Watch: ICE will soon have access to a license-plate database with billions of photos showing the time and location of various vehicles. It\u2019s a good reminder that it will be impossible to enforce the Trump administration\u2019s ideal immigration policy without severe restrictions on the civil liberties of everyone, not just immigrants.\nA California woman died while waiting on the State Department to approve a visa for her sister to come to the United States from Vietnam for a stem-cell transplant.\nThe Justice Department will oppose leniency for a Nashville man who served more than 20 years in prison for a drug crime and was released in 2016 under new sentencing guidelines. He had a spotless record in prison. But the federal government appealed, arguing that his criminal history as a juvenile precluded his release. Despite a federal judge\u2019s opinion that he is completely rehabilitated, he now faces another 15 years in prison. (To be fair, the appeal of his release was initiated during the Obama administration. But the current administration could still recommend leniency.)\nThe Justice Department has effectively shut down an office that facilitated legal aid for the poor.\nPosted in Daily life, Drug laws, GOP, Government, Law Enforcement, Trump administration\nThe attack on Dallas police, recounted in detail\nJamie Thompson recounts in riveting detail the story of the deliberate assassination of five Dallas police offices (and attempts to kill more) on July 7, 2016. This is well worth reading: well written, with helpful graphics, it takes you into the scene.\nPosted in Law Enforcement\nDonald Trump takes a strong stand on consequences of a 1000-point drop in the Dow\nUpdate: I belatedly checked Snopes.com: the twitter is fake. Trump did not tweet such a thing. So this time it is indeed \u201cfake news.\u201d\nIntel\u2019s smart glasses look normal\nVery interesting article by Dieter Bonn in Verge, particularly for those of us who wear glasses anyway:\nhttps://youtu.be/bnfwClgheF0\nWith Vaunt, Intel is betting on less.\nTake the stickers and part numbers off the Vaunt prototypes I tried this past December, and they would just look like slightly chunky, plastic-framed glasses. With a little more polish, I could see myself wearing them all the time, even if they didn\u2019t have a display. Though I only saw two versions in Intel\u2019s New Devices Group (NDG) San Francisco offices, Intel envisions having many different styles available when the product formally launches.\n\u201dWhen we look at what types of new devices are out there, [we are] really excited about head-worn [products],\u201d says Itai Vonshak, head of products for NDG. \u201cHead-worn products are hard because people assign a lot of attributes to putting something on their head. It means something about their personality.\u201d That\u2019s Vonshak\u2019s politic way of saying other smart glasses look terrible, so his goal was . . .\nFiber Is Good for You. Now Scientists May Know Why.\nA diet of fiber-rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables, reduces the risk of developing diabetes, heart disease and arthritis. Indeed, the evidence for fiber\u2019s benefits extends beyond any particular ailment: Eating more fiber seems to lower people\u2019s mortality rate, whatever the cause.\nThat\u2019s why experts are always saying how good dietary fiber is for us. But while the benefits are clear, it\u2019s not so clear why fiber is so great. \u201cIt\u2019s an easy question to ask and a hard one to really answer,\u201d said Fredrik B\u00e4ckhed, a biologist at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden.\nHe and other scientists are running experiments that are yielding some important new clues about fiber\u2019s role in human health. Their research indicates that fiber doesn\u2019t deliver many of its benefits directly to our bodies.\nInstead, the fiber we eat feeds billions of bacteria in our guts. Keeping them happy means our intestines and immune systems remain in good working order.\nIn order to digest food, we need to bathe it in enzymes that break down its molecules. Those molecular fragments then pass through the gut wall and are absorbed in our intestines.\nBut our bodies make a limited range of enzymes, so that we cannot break down many of the tough compounds in plants. The term \u201cdietary fiber\u201d refers to those indigestible molecules.\nBut they are indigestible only to us. The gut is coated with a layer of mucus, atop which sits a carpet of hundreds of species of bacteria, part of the human microbiome. Some of these microbes carry the enzymes needed to break down various kinds of dietary fiber.\nThe ability of these bacteria to survive on fiber we can\u2019t digest ourselves has led many experts to wonder if the microbes are somehow involved in the benefits of the fruits-and-vegetables diet. Two detailed studies published recently in the journal Cell Host and Microbe provide compelling evidence that the answer is yes.\nIn one experiment, Andrew T. Gewirtz of Georgia State University and his colleagues put mice on a low-fiber, high-fat diet. By examining fragments of bacterial DNA in the animals\u2019 feces, the scientists were able to estimate the size of the gut bacterial population in each mouse.\nOn a low-fiber diet, they found, the population crashed, shrinking tenfold.\nDr. B\u00e4ckhed and his colleagues carried out a similar experiment, surveying the microbiome in mice as they were switched from fiber-rich food to a low-fiber diet. \u201cIt\u2019s basically what you\u2019d get at McDonald\u2019s,\u201d said Dr. B\u00e4ckhed said. \u201cA lot of lard, a lot of sugar, and twenty percent protein.\u201d\nThe scientists focused on the diversity of species that make up the mouse\u2019s gut microbiome. Shifting the animals to a low-fiber diet had a dramatic effect, they found: Many common species became rare, and rare species became common.\nAlong with changes to the microbiome, both teams also observed rapid changes to the mice themselves. Their intestines got smaller, and its mucus layer thinner. As a result, bacteria wound up much closer to the intestinal wall, and that encroachment triggered an immune reaction.\nAfter a few days on the low-fiber diet, mouse intestines developed chronic inflammation. After a few weeks, Dr. Gewirtz\u2019s team observed that the mice began to change in other ways, putting on fat, for example, and developing higher blood sugar levels.\nDr. B\u00e4ckhed and his colleagues also fed another group of rodents the high-fat menu, along with a modest dose of a type of fiber called inulin. The mucus layer in their guts was healthier than in mice that didn\u2019t get fiber, the scientists found, and intestinal bacteria were kept at a safer distance from their intestinal wall.\nDr. Gewirtz and his colleagues gave inulin to their mice as well, but at a much higher dose. The improvements were even more dramatic: Despite a high-fat diet, the mice had healthy populations of bacteria in their guts, their intestines were closer to normal, and they put on less weight.\nDr. B\u00e4ckhed and his colleagues ran one more interesting experiment: They spiked water given to mice on a high-fat diet with a species of fiber-feeding bacteria. The addition changed the mice for the better: Even on a high-fat diet, they produced more mucus in their guts, creating a healthy barrier to keep bacteria from the intestinal walls.\nOne way that fiber benefits health is by giving us, indirectly, another source of food, Dr. Gewirtz said. Once bacteria are done harvesting the energy in dietary fiber, they cast off the fragments as waste. That waste \u2014 in the form of short-chain fatty acids \u2014 is absorbed by intestinal cells, which use it as fuel.\nBut the gut\u2019s microbes do more than just make energy. They also send messages.\nIntestinal cells rely on chemical signals from the bacteria to work properly, Dr. Gewirtz said. The cells respond to the signals by multiplying and making a healthy supply of mucus. They also release bacteria-killing molecules.\nBy generating these responses, gut bacteria help maintain a peaceful coexistence with the immune system. They rest atop the gut\u2019s mucus layer at a safe distance from the intestinal wall. Any bacteria that wind up too close get wiped out by antimicrobial poisons.\nWhile some species of gut bacteria feed directly on dietary fiber, they probably support other species that feed on their waste. A number of species in this ecosystem \u2014 all of it built on fiber \u2014 may be talking to our guts.\nGoing on a low-fiber diet disturbs this peaceful relationship, the new studies suggest. The species that depend on dietary fiber starve, as do the other species that depend on them. Some species may switch to feeding on the host\u2019s own mucus.\nWith less fuel, intestinal cells grow more slowly. And without a steady stream of chemical signals from bacteria, the cells slow their production of mucus and bacteria-killing poisons.\nAs a result, bacteria edge closer to the intestinal wall, and the immune system kicks into high gear.\n\u201cThe gut is always precariously balanced between trying to contain these organisms and not to overreact,\u201d said Eric C. Martens, a microbiologist at the University of Michigan who was not involved in the new studies. \u201cIt could be a tipping point between health and disease.\u201d . . .\nSee also \u201cHow probiotics and prebiotics team up in your gut.\u201d After reading that, we are eating more onion and asparagus\u2026\nPosted in Daily life, Food, Health, Science\nNo Children Because of Climate Change? Some People Are Considering It\nI have to say that I believe that my grandchildren will face a challenging future. We haven\u2019t yet seen the mass migrations of people that will happen as coastal cities are flooded more than they already are, and we have seen that refugees are not treated well. Maggie Astor reports in the NY Times:\nAdd this to the list of decisions affected by climate change: Should I have children?\nIt is not an easy time for people to feel hopeful, with the effects of globalwarming no longer theoretical, projections becoming more dire and governmental action lagging. And while few, if any, studies have examined how large a role climate change plays in people\u2019s childbearing decisions, it loomed large in interviews with more than a dozen people ages 18 to 43.\nThe birthrate in the United States, which has been falling for a decade, reached a new low in 2016. Economic insecurity has been a major factor, but even as the economy recovers, the decline in births continues.\nAnd the discussions about the role of climate change are only intensifying.\n\u201cWhen we first started this project, I didn\u2019t know anybody who had had any conversations about this,\u201d said Meghan Kallman, a co-founder of Conceivable Future, an organization that highlights how climate change is limiting reproductive choices.\nThat has changed, she said \u2014 either because more people are having doubts, or because it has become less taboo to talk about them.\nIf it weren\u2019t for climate change, Allison Guy said, she would go off birth control tomorrow.\nBut scientists\u2019 projections, if rapid action isn\u2019t taken, are not \u201ccongruent with a stable society,\u201d said Ms. Guy, 32, who works at a marine conservation nonprofit in Washington. \u201cI don\u2019t want to give birth to a kid wondering if it\u2019s going to live in some kind of \u2018Mad Max\u2019 dystopia.\u201d\nParents like Amanda PerryMiller, a Christian youth leader and mother of two in Independence, Ohio, share her fears.\n\u201cAnimals are disappearing. The oceans are full of plastic. The human population is so numerous, the planet may not be able to support it indefinitely,\u201d said Ms. PerryMiller, 29. \u201cThis doesn\u2019t paint a very pretty picture for people bringing home a brand-new baby from the hospital.\u201d\nThe people thinking about these issues fit no single profile. They are women and men, liberal and conservative. They come from many regions and religions. . .\nPosted in Daily life, Education, Go\nTricks to improve a soup recipe\nCarrie Havrenek offers some good tips on seven ways to improve a soup recipe. In particular, roasting the vegetables before adding to the soup is a definite winner, something I just recently learned and put to good effect in this recipe.\nI occasionally use homemade stock, but I also make frequent use of Penzey\u2019s soup bases, which are excellent.\nI knew about using Parmesan rinds to amp up the umami (and note that Whole Foods sells Parmesan rinds: I now always have some in the refrigerator). Other umami-boosting tricks are to add 3-4 anchovy fillets when the saut\u00e9 vegetables for the soup (and buy those that come in a jar rather than those in a tin), or a good dash of soy sauce or tamari or Worcestershire sauce or fish sauce (the latter two being made from anchovies). Mushrooms and tomatoes also bring umami flavor, as do sea vegetables.\nIf you want to thicken the soup, adding 1/4 cup chia seed will do the job and also add protein, fiber, omega-3 oils, iron, etc.\u2014chia seed has many benefits. If you are restricting carbohydrates (and I still am), note that 1 ounce (2 Tablespoons) of chia seed has only 2g of net carbohydrates (total carbohydrates (13.1g) minutes dietary fiber (11.1g)).\nMy soups now often include chicken breast (0 WW points) as the meat choice. When I get chicken breasts, I immediately poach them (using the method in the second link above), so when I use them in soup or chili, I don\u2019t include them until the end, just heating them up in the dish to avoid overcooking them.\nAs noted in the article, vinegar (or, really, any acid, such as lemon juice) will brighten the flavor. I generally use lemon juice or brown rice vinegar or sherry vinegar, but any will do. Two tablespoons in a pot of soup is plenty, but try one tablespoon and then taste.",

        "raw_content": "Housing and cleaners' struggles in London in the 1960s-70s - May Hobbs\nIn two chapters from her autobiographical account Born To Struggle, May describes her struggles against landlords, employees and council and union bureaucrats. As a result of her experiences working as a night cleaner, she set up the rank'n'file group Cleaners Action and led a cleaners' strike at the Ministry of Defence offices.\nWe lived in our new flat [in Tottenham] about three months. Then through one of my brothers and his wife we heard about somewhere else that was going that had more room and the rent not much dearer. It seemed a nice place, so we moved. As it turned out I never felt happy there. It was in a house that had been split up into six flats. When we moved in we found that the bathroom was not in working order, so we organized a rent strike. All the tenants refused to pay any more more until the bathroom was working. We kept it up for a fortnight, and when the landlord saw we were serious he soon had the builders in and we paid up. We had our ups and downs at that flat. It was nice enough, but I grew very depressed there and wanted to move. By now flats were getting harder to come by, especially if you had kids, but we started to look around again, and eventually found something through a friend who knew a friend. It was in some old buildings near the Blackwall Tunnel. Though the buildings were old, you had your own street door and the rent was only \u00a31 a week for two rooms and a small kitchenette. We found it really suited us.\nThe buses used to go almost in a circle round the block of buildings, and Tony [her young son] spent nearly all day getting on them at the bus stop at the turning in for the bus to drop him off at the other side. There were plenty of other kids in the buildings and we felt we had got back into a community where everybody knew everybody else and people would try to help each other out.\nBy the time we had been there six months I was resigned to the fact that we would only ever have Tony, and then I found I was pregnant. I was quite delighted as I would not have liked to think of Tony as being the only one. I had got friendly with a Scotch girl called Margaret, and we decided to start up a second-hand stall down Crisp Street market. We did not do too badly at it. It was not like the Hoxton market, though, where no one would be envious if you earned a couple of bob over.\nThere were three others down there, and for every little thing they would be running to the market man to tittle-tattle about how we were trying to take customers away. When we got hold of a lot of slightly damaged children's dresses from a warehouse and put them on the stall, they went and told the market man that we were supposed to be a second-hand stall, not selling new stuff. But the bloke never said a word.\nWe went down there twice a week, and I always took Tony. By the end of the day I would owe the cafe and all the sweet shops where Tony had been in and said he could have so and so and his mum would come in and pay later. We also went to the Watney Street market twice a week and I did pretty well on Tuesdays, it being Family Allowance day. I continued with the market work till I was about six months pregnant, and then gave it up. It was getting a bit too much, and Margaret had packed it in. And, it being winter, standing out in the freezing cold and snow was no joke. That is the thing about stall work: it is lovely in summer, but treacherous in cold weather. Anyway, Chris was not earning too bad and it was coming up to Christmas.\nOur first Christmas in there was really quite nice. We had in our food and drink, and never went outside. It was the first time we had really been on our own, in a place with our own front door. Now Tony was older he could enjoy his presents and play with them. We bought him a pedal car and a train set - though I am not sure who the trains were bought for: Chris [her partner] played with them more than Tony.\nThen there came a cold and miserable day on 25 January. We were sitting watching telly when I started to have pains. They went on and got more rapid and as I was not supposed to be having the baby for another month I started to be a wee bit frightened. I told Chris he had better go and call the ambulance, and it did not arrive for about an hour. When it did they asked me, `How quickly are the pains coming?' I had got the needle by this time and said, `They'd be a bit slower if you'd come a bit faster.' At that they got quite snotty.\nI said to Chris that he had better stay at home - I was sure we would end up having a row the mood I felt in. The lady from next door went with me, and the hospital was only about fifteen minutes away. We reached there at 10.20 p.m. We were just into the lift as the baby started to arrive. They were just about able to get me into the labour ward with my skirt and that off when she was born. At 6 lb. Debby was a pretty good weight, considering she was a month early.\nWhen she was born Debby never had a hair on her head but she was a lovely looking baby, though I know every mother says her baby is great. The one thing I was worried over was Tony's reaction. For three years he had been the centre of attraction, and now some of that would have to slip. But I need not have worried. He just kept on kissing her when we got her home. The only thing Tony would not stand for was that she might come into our bed. He had a bed of his own, but he always crept into ours. All our kids have done this - even Trevor, the latest recruit; he says he is looking after us, in case anybody gets in during the night. But that first night back with Debby, when Tony came into our bed as usual he turned to Chris and said, `Now you've got her, you ain't going to sling me out, are you?' It really choked us that in his little mind he could have thought that he would have to leave because of the new baby.\nWhen Debby was about three weeks old I started to do night work. We had been living in that flat under the previous tenant's name, and as soon as the landlord found out he sent us notice to quit. There was nothing for it but to try and get the money together for somewhere else. On Chris's wage we could not afford to offer key money. We looked around and eventually found a place at Clapton where kids were tolerated : two damp basement rooms for \u00a37 a week, and a charge of \u00a3100 just to get in. They said it would be a returnable deposit, but a load of old toffee that turned out. The landlord you could never get at as he had put the flat to be managed by an agent. If you went in to the agent's to tell them about something that needed doing, they just said `Yes', and sat back on their backsides.\nOnce we were there I had to keep on with the night work to pay the rent. After six months of that and coming home to look after the kids during the day I was feeling really -exhausted and irritable. Then a friend called Gladys came to live across the road, and that was a help. She used to take the kids for a few hours each day to give me a chance to sleep.\nThen I was pregnant again. This time it really was the last thing I wanted. I continued night work till I was about six months gone, then thought I had better pack it in for a while. At seven months gone I decided it was time to book in at hospital. What a day that was! I went to the Mothers' Hospital at Clapton, which is run by the Sally Army. I went in there about 10.30 in the morning after saying to Gladys, `Have the kids for a couple of hours.' When I arrived I felt some twinges start and asked the nurse, could I have some pills. `The doctor isn't in yet,' she said, `but go in there and wait and he'll be along to examine you in half an hour.' As anyone who has waited around in hospitals knows, half an hour according to their timetable means something more like two. Along he came at a quarter to twelve and slapped me straight in the labour ward. I had a baby girl there at five past.\nMichelle weighed only 4 lb., and so had to be put straight in an incubator. It was funny how, with the two girls, I had easy times, while the boys never seemed in any great hurry to come and not to worry about giving pain.\nAfter eleven days in hospital I went home without Michelle. They let her come home three weeks later, and she had only been there four hours when she had to be taken off to Hackney Hospital with German measles, which she must have picked up in Clapton. It was another fourteen days before she was home again. Now I had three kids to look after.\nPeople might say to me, why did you always wait so long before you booked in at hospital? Isn't that what we've got a National Health Service for? The reason why I put it off was because I could not bear to be pulled about by doctors who treated you as a moron and herded their patients from place to place as if they were a load of cattle in a market place. After every child I had I was told I ought not to have any more, and when I asked to be sterilized they told me I was too young. Makes you laugh, don't it?\nBy this time things got pretty tough. We were paying the rent and bringing up three kids on a man's wage of \u00a314 a week. So the rent took second place: my kids were not going to die of malnutrition. When we had notice to quit I went to the agent and said, `Take the rent I owe you out of the \u00a3100.' `That was for fixtures and fittings,' he said, the lying bastard. As we could not raise the rent they said we owed, they sent in the bailiff. Instead of evicting us there and then, though, he said we could have two weeks to find somewhere else. In fact he found us a flat at Wood Green. The rent was still \u00a37, and it was for only two rooms, but we were not faced with any choice. We took it. There was already living in the house a family who were coloured. They seemed amazed to get some tenants in who were not racist. During our time there we were all good neighbours and we have kept in touch with them ever since. They have their own house today.\nIt was about this time that Rachman [a notorious London slum landlord of the time] was thriving, and it was what I saw then that started to make me political. Seeing all the problems of homelessness and disgusting rents being charged for rotten accommodation took me in that direction. I joined the local Labour party at Harringay, though it seemed to me to be more full of false than of true socialists. We helped at council election times by canvassing for our candidates and doing the tote, which was work which really took us into contact with people and their troubles. They didn't mind telling me about them, they said, because they felt I was genuinely interested (which I was). They didn't feel that about the people on the council, they said. When people told me their problems, I always relayed them on to Eric Page, who was the one councillor I could trust to do something about them. He always checked them out straight away.\nIn 1964 Harold Wilson got the Labour party more working-class votes than he would have done otherwise as a result of his promise to stamp out Rachmanism and put a stop to illegal evictions. I know people who voted Labour then who had never voted in their lives before - and never have done since. But when it came to it, in typical fashion, the new laws left plenty of loopholes for the landlords to creep in.\nBy now I had started back on night work, and again it was to try to bring us in enough to live. We took our rent to the tribunal, and had it reduced to \u00a33 10s. a week by the rent officer. But then we also had to pay \u00a32 a week in rates, so the actual reduction only came to \u00a31 10s. Meanwhile the landlady began to get stroppy, and was working behind the scenes to turn us out - though we did not know it yet.\nThe work I found was in one of the big office blocks in the West End. The cleaning contractors paid \u00a39 for working through the night from 10 p.m. till 6 a.m. five days a week. There were about twelve of us working there, and though we realized we were being exploited - by that I mean used to make money for the contractors - and moaned on about it, we never really did anything to change things.\nOne night, as we were sitting having our dinner break, we decided the only way to better our pay and conditions would be to organize into a trade union. And we did, but we never told the supervisor yet. We did not want to get the sack before we were properly off the ground. We got some forms from the Transport and General Workers' Union office and all filled them in.\nAfter about three weeks the supervisor has found us out, and that Friday morning, as we are leaving to go home, out comes Effie, the one and only coloured girl on our building, looking mad and informing us she has got the sack. Effie had taken up night cleaning to help support her five kids; though she was a nurse, the hours in that profession never fit in with domestic life. She has been working on the building for about six months.\nBack we go and ask the supervisor why. `Her work is no good,' she says. To which we reply, `Well, where've you been for the last six months, or have you had shit in your eyes?' A big row follows and in the end she screams out that she hates blacks and is not having any on her building.\nIt was too late to do anything then and there, but we agreed that we would meet at Warren Street tube station before going back to work on Sunday night, and then, if Effie was not reinstated, that we would stay out too. We informed the union by phone, and then we all went home.\nCome Sunday night and we all meet as arranged and go along to the building to ask the supervisor once again if she is going to let in Effie. `No,' she says. `Well in that case,' we say, `we aren't coming in either.' She scuttles off to phone the night manager. When he comes down he says that, if we will go in, he will put Effie on another building. This we refuse: this is her building, we tell him, and it is this one or none at all. He cannot go against the supervisor, he tells us. So we stay out.\nWe tried to get a union officer to come down. If one had come the strike would probably have been settled on the spot, but we had to wait till nine o'clock the next morning. It seems that a night union officer exists for the big industries where the big money is, but when it comes to inconsequential people like night cleaners, no such person is available. Eventually a union representative and one of the directors of the company got together to look into the sacking, and that night Effie was reinstated. The supervisor was advised to take a holiday - and anybody given a holiday by the company was usually on permanent holiday.\nAfter that things went smoothly for three to four weeks. Then one night they asked me and my mate Brenda - another very militant type - if we could help out and go on another building. And, like fools, we agreed.\nAs it was a fairly small building we reckoned that we would get through all the work before stopping for our dinner break. We had just begun our tea and were reading the paper when three supervisors and a manager came in. `You were sleeping,' they said. `You must be joking,' we told them. `It's your word against ours,' they said, `and there are more of us.' We were out at a minute's notice.\nWe should have seen that it was a set-up job, but you would never think anyone could be so snidey, though you ought to expect anything from those bastards. The union made their half-hearted attempt to have us reinstated, but in the circumstances, they said, there was not much they could do. So there we were, sacked. It was about a year before I got another job - and then it was only by going under another name.\nThough I was out of work I never went back into the quiet life of a little housewife. Right, I thought, I'll really get into the politics of things, especially where it is all to do with people without homes, where they go and what happens to them if they are evicted. One of the first cases we got involved with concerned another friend of mine called Ann.\nToday Ann has eight kids. In those days it was six, and they were all living in two rooms in Wood Green, paying \u00a36 10s. and \u00a31 in rates a week. She just could not manage on the wages her bloke brought in, and as they could not pay the rent the landlord had given them notice to quit. Feeling mad, she came round to me to tell me that he was taking her to court.\nWhen they had the court hearing I went along with her, and after everybody else had gabbled on and on it came to Ann's turn to speak.\n`Do you agree with what the landlord has said?' the judge asked her.\n`No,' Ann replied, `I think he's got a fucking cheek, throwing me out. I only owe him \u00a3625 rent. If he wasn't charging so much I wouldn't owe so much.'\nI was sitting there in stitches, she was so serious about it. As you might guess, though, she got her month's notice to quit. With Ann, it never seemed to matter what a bother she was in, the funny side always came out. We went from the court straight round to the Homeless Family Unit at Harringay Town Hall to tell them she would be without a home in four weeks. `Come back when you're on the street,' they said.\nThe day before she was due for eviction the landlord arrived and started to ask which her furniture was so he could take some to pay towards the arrears.\n`You don't get any of it,' Ann told him. `Anyway, it wouldn't do you any good. If you grab it I'll phone the shop and tell them to come and get it. None of it's been paid for.'\nHe was well choked.\nThat night we used Ann's pram to take all her furniture piece by piece round to our place. We must really have looked a sight, pushing all that gear through the streets, and no one guessed we would find ourselves in the same boat a few months later l The next day, with all her furniture stacked in one of our rooms, Ann went up to the Town Hall to ask where she was having to go. In fact she knew one thing that so many homeless families do not know - that she was not going to be separated from her kids or her man. She had already been told by Eric Page that the worst that could happen to her was being put into hostel, and that that would be in Wood Green.\nIt happened as he told her. She had two rooms in the hostel, and shared a kitchen, and they let her take in her own furniture. It was just like a two-roomed flat, except that she only had to pay \u00a31 10s. a week instead of \u00a37 10s. They told her she could be there three months.\nWhile Ann was in the hostel, she decided to get a night job, and I said I would try with her. We applied for a job to one of the big contractors and found they had work going at the Ministry of Defence in Whitehall, where they needed a supervisor and cleaner. I applied for the supervisor's job, as by then I had had experience of being one. And then, with a job like that, it gave better opportunities of building up contacts with the cleaners. Back came the forms and we filled them in and sent them off. Mine came back as I had omitted to put in my parents' names and I sent it off again. We were two weeks waiting to hear.\nWhen the answers came, Ann had been given her job but I had been rejected. Even Ann was amazed. She had convictions stretching from Wood Green to Holloway gaol. I asked for a reason, and the guv at the contractors said he did not know what it was. I asked him outright, `Is it because of my conviction?' 'No,' he said, `that isn't the reason.' There was only one thing left it could have been: my dad's name, which was Samuel Benjamin Bemrose. The moral of this story seems to be that you can have as many cons as you like, but if you have a Jewish name in the family the government reckon ou are likely to be a real subversive. Ann turned down the job they offered her.\nIn the end I found some evening work helping in the kitchen in a posh cafe in Wood Green. The hours were 6 to 10 p.m., but the job fell through after two weeks. When they closed at ten you were expected to clear up, which meant you never got away until eleven. I stood it for a few nights, and then went to the manageress to ask for overtime. She looked at me as if I was out of my mind. I told her, well, I was being paid for six to ten, so the extra hour was overtime. Wouldn't she stop me an hour's pay, I asked her, if I told her one evening I was not coming in till seven? But she couldn't see it that way. People had done it for years, she said. So I said, `That's why you're always advertising for a kitchen hand.' After that she started to get on my back, so I quit.\nMy next evening job was at the Standard Telephone factory, which was a union firm. But the girls on the evening shift were not particularly militant. They said they only did it to get a couple of extra shillings and because it suited them - none would admit they were there for economic reasons. Mind you, the shop steward - a woman who worked there during the day - would always come back to the factory in the evening to sort out any problems if you had them.\nIt was about this time that our landlady said I owed her \u00a375 in rent. I had always sent her the rent by registered post and enclosed the rent book. One week she never sent the book back, and when I kept asking for it, she said she would send it on. Instead, she sent a notice to quit. Again I asked her for the rent book, and she'd lost it, she said. When I told her I could prove I had been sending the rent, she said it would never hold up in court; there was no proof for how much money had been in the envelopes. So I was sent a court order, and the hearing was set for three months ahead. From that day I did not pay her a penny more rent. What was the point when she said she never received it?\nThe few times I had seen her she had talked to make me feel sorry for her - telling me about how she had been in a Nazi concentration camp, how her husband was blind and ours was the only house she owned, how she had to take in dressmaking to make ends meet and send her daughter to college, and how tough her life was. It turned out she owned five houses and her old man was his own boss in a dressmaking firm while her daughter was marrying another businessman. You could not take such a woman's word on anything.\nI packed up the evening work when I found I was pregnant again. By now I was whacked out with looking after the kids and being pregnant. Chris was working away from home just then, so I had to be home for the children. The money started to get really tight. I began to buy things on the book round the local shops and pay them at the end of the week. Ann now had seven kids, and she did the same. Our troubles started when we could not pay the shopkeepers. Then when we wanted to meet up somewhere else, she would go one route, past the shops where I owed, and I went the other, past the ones where she owed. It meant about a mile's detour. The shoe leather we must have got through.\nTo collect our Family Allowances we had to go down the Post Office in Commerce Road. It was five minutes as the crow would fly, but it took us twenty by the time we had gone by our roundabout routes. Then Ann owed the greengrocer's next the Post Office. So I would go into the shop to buy some potatoes or something and keep the bloke occupied while she ran in to get her allowance. One day he came out just as she did.\n`Oy!' he was shouting down the road after her. `You owe me some money.'\nWe just hurried on, saying to people, `That man must be mad. He's shouting after someone when there's no one about.'\nIn spite of our troubles we always had some good laughs together: me and Ann and our other mate, Brenda. It was Brenda, you remember, who had been with me when we agitated to have Effie reinstated. We used to go round to see Brenda maybe once a week.\nOne particular day we go to see Brenda and are sitting there having a cup of tea when a man comes to the door as white as a ghost.\n`Do you know where your kids are, missus ?' he asks.\n`Yes,' Brenda says. `Upstairs, playing.'\n`You call it playing,' he replies, `but I call it acrobats - they're swinging on the curtains out of the window.'\nSo we all rush upstairs to the bedroom, and sure enough there they are, playing Tarzan out of the window and swinging on the curtains.\nThe time came round for the court hearing, and Ann went with me this time. We arrived at ten o'clock - the only time, I think, that I have ever been early for one of those places. The landlady had a solicitor to represent her, but I did not. We were only in there about half an hour because, for some reason or other , the judge thought I should be represented and they put it off another fortnight. I went home browned off and feeling I would rather have had it seen to there and then so I would have known where I stood. In the meantime I got myself a solicitor - for all the good he was.\nCame the day when we were back in court. The landlady's solicitor got up to say her piece for her and tried to make out I owed the money - though as she had lost the rent book they had no more proof than I did. Then I had to go into the box for her solicitor to ask me a load of questions. So I asked one myself: `You've been told by her that I owe this money, yet she has already shown herself to be a liar, so why take her word against mine?' Straightaway the judge told me not be to so cheeky - except he used a long word I could not spell.\nAll through the hearing my own solicitor never asked one question so I could not have been worse off without him. The whole thing droned on, and then the judge asked me if I had anywhere to go if I was evicted. He was going to evict me, I told him, so what did he care? Anyway, I said, I wanted to be evicted because that was the only way I was ever going to get a proper place of my own as it would then be the council's duty to rehouse me. Even if it meant having to go into a hostel for a time, I was prepared for that, I said. The judge made out the eviction order for two months ahead, and I told the landlady not to bother about expecting the rent. Then I went to the council to tell them the date set for my eviction and they said that my case was coming up on the Rehousing Committee's agenda.\nAbout a week after the hearing I went into hospital. I was about six months gone by then, and the doctors said my blood count was low. They advised me to go in for a rest, otherwise I might land up with another premature birth. So I left Chris and our friends to look after the kids. The first three days in there I did nothing but sleep, but after that I began to feel bored and pretty depressed. I soon bucked up when a really lively girl called Pat was put into the bed next to mine. The times we were caught doing handstands up the wall.\nAfter I was in there about three weeks we were joined by another woman called Beatty, whose husband had his own car business. One particular night it was Beatty's birthday and he brought in two bottles of champagne. Somebody else's husband had brought some beer and Chris had brought food and fruit. We all had a great time getting pissed until all the husbands were thrown out about three hours later. Being in a side-ward, they had forgotten about us, and it was only when the sister did her night rounds that she found the blokes were still there. She had to admit the next morning, though, that we had all slept like tops - we hadn't even needed our sleeping pills.\nMeantime other things had been happening on the outside. Our landlady sent somebody down at nine o'clock one night to try and evict Chris and the kids, and when Chris told the bloke I was in hospital, he said, `How could I evict you, mate? You've got enough on your mind as it is.'\nThen there was Michelle. She has more scars on her than any kid I know. She has always been climbing trees and jumping and falling. As soon as she started school she began jumping around on the desks and fell and cut her head open. So up the hospital she was carted, and in she came to see me that night, her head all bandaged up. Inside about three days she was back: this time she had swallowed a sixpence. They X-rayed her and told Chris that nature would have to take its course - which it did. A few days later, as Chris was walking down the road from work one evening, the kids came walking up to him chewing sweets with great enjoyment. One of them says to him: `All your worries are over, Dad.'\n`How's that?' he asks.\n`Well,' they say, `you know that tanner Michelle swallowed? We just bought some sweets with it.'\nAfter four weeks in the hospital I had my baby: a boy, still premature, but a fine weight at 6 lb., pink and bald as a badger. I was pleased it was a boy. We called him Trevor, and out of all my mob he has turned out the funniest. I was in hospital about ten days more, and then we came home. The others really took to Trevor.\nI was only home two days before there came a knock on the door and there was the bailiff stood on the doorstep. I asked him in and he told me the length of time I was permitted to stay had expired and he was there to evict me. But when I told him I was just out of hospital and had not been able to get myself together, he behaved quite human and asked how long it would take for the council to see what they would do about us. I told him about a fortnight, at least. `Right,' he said, `I'll be back in two weeks' time,' and he gave me a date and time. Then he said, `Don't forget to get everything out that's yours, because the landlady could come down and claim it for rent arrears.'\nI went up the council with the new date I would be evicted and up came the same old story: `Wait until you're out on the street. You aren't homeless until you're on the street.' Then they had their Rehousing Committee meeting and said they could not rehouse me because I owed rent. I said yes, I did owe rent, but I only owed it since the court hearing and I had no intention of paying it to a woman who said she wasn't getting it. They still said they could not help, and though Eric Page and a few other councillors kept on hammering the council, they would not budge.\nWhen there was a week to go, a man from the Homeless Families Unit came to see me, and I told him that if the council was not going to do anything for me, I would squat. There were plenty of people willing to help, including Eric Page - in fact, he had a house picked out already if things came to it. He said that would not be necessary. I was going into a hostel at Muswell Hill where conditions would be better than those we were living in now. He even took me up to see it. If I had not known I would not have guessed it was a hostel. It was a big house in a turning off Muswell Hill with a lovely garden. Inside it was really clean. Three families were living there, one on each floor, but one was on the move, and we would take their place. After that I did not feel so bad or frightened about being thrown out. No one who has not been through that experience of being turned out on to the street and wondering where they and their family will spend the night can imagine that feeling.\nThe day before the eviction Ann came round with another mate, Joan, to help me move my stuff to Joan's place. It was only round the corner, so we thought Ann's pram would come in handy again. As we were loading it Eric Page arrived to lend a hand, and bit by bit we took the gear round to Joan's house while having a real good laugh on the way, it suddenly seemed so comic. We spent the night at Joan's as no beds were left at the old house.\nNext day I had to be back there at ten o'clock for the bailiff to secure the key and make the eviction official. Joan had Trevor and the other three went off to school.\nThe bailiff and the landlady were already there when I arrived. As we went in she spotted a table and four chairs. `I can claim them for the arrears,' she said. On the quiet the bailiff asked me whose they were. Mine, I told him, but I was leaving them as somebody had given me some others. Could he have them for a family he knew, he asked. So I said to the landlady, `You can't take them. They're not mine and the person's collecting them later.' When they had checked that everything was all right, I handed the key to the bailiff and went out of the door. By now the landlady was shouting about the rent I owed her, so I told her to go through the proper channels. Off she went, seething, and off I went to the Town Hall.\nEric Page was already there at the Homeless Unit with his wife Jan to give me moral support, and about half an hour later Ann also came in with her seven kids. By now she had been given her own house in Tottenham, but only by agreeing to get officially married. They kept us all waiting a couple of hours, and then I had to fill in a load of forms, while all the time they kept asking if there was anybody I could go and live with, and I kept telling them, `No.'\n`I don't know where you are going to go,' this woman said. `We could take your children off you and make you find your own accommodation.'\nEric asked her to repeat that as he thought she was trying to intimidate me, so she asked who the hell he was. `I'm Councillor Page,' he told her, and her attitude changed at once. Then the official who had been to see me the week before came in and asked why I was still sitting there. I told him, `They say they don't know where I'm going.' `I told you where you're going,' he said. The woman must have known all the time. He gave me the keys and told me he would be there to see me tomorrow. Could I take my dog, I asked, but as that was not allowed Eric and Jan had him for twelve weeks.\nIt might sound that the Harringay Homeless Unit are a heartless load - they seemed that way to me at first. But the real heartless ones are the council officials who are never seen and who shelter behind the social services departments. Given the circumstances I now think the Harringay social services department is one of the most human. Since then I have dealt for other people with other boroughs over one thing or another, and I can tell you some of them are right pigs. Just for sticking up for the people who are their victims I have been called a pseudo-revolutionary. They can call me that if they like. It sounds better to me than a petty-minded bureaucrat making a living out of the people's money and using the public service for an alibi.\nWe moved into the hostel, on the top floor. There was one big living room and we shared the kitchen, bathroom and toilet with the two other families. These were two separated mums: one had five kids and the other three. They had been there about three months waiting to be rehoused. Our two girls transferred to a nice little school, almost like a village school, and were really liking it. Tony was still at his old school, and they picked him up and brought him home by coach, which was a great burden off my shoulders. Then, after a week or so, Trevor was taken ill. The doctor came at once and called an ambulance, and he was taken back to the hospital in Edmonton where he was born. There they put him straight in an oxygen tent with what the doctors called infantile asthma. He was more ill that I thought, and the next day he looked even worse. We had the trek over every day for two weeks.\nWhen Trevor was better it was getting near to Christmas and we decorated the hostel up and really worked up some festive spirit even though we were not in what we could call a home from home. Once Christmas was over I decided it was time I got back to work as the other women in the hostel said they would keep an eye on the kids, but on New Year's Eve Trev was taken ill again. He was, in fact, in and out of hospital until he was six months old. The doctors said he would grow out of the infantile asthma as he got older, and he has.\nStill no one seemed to have any idea when we would be rehoused. I wrote to a couple of the Labour councillors without getting any reply, so right, I thought, I'll see if we get any joy out of the Tories. At that time they had the majority in the council. So I wrote to Douglas Smith, who was then leader of the council. He answered at once that he would look into it, and he did, and he kept us informed of what he was doing. It rather took my breath away, because he knew what my thoughts were on his party. Whether they are Labour or Tory, those councillors who are not out for their own egos or business interests, really care about people as individuals, and act on what they have been elected to do, must always, it seems, be among the few.\nOne Friday night three weeks later a social worker came to ask if we would like a house in North London. `I don't care where it is,' I told her. `Have you found one for me ?' She gave me the keys and the address to go and take a look. It was an old property, but roomy, and no hot water or bathroom. At that time I really didn't care. I was just glad to be getting my own house at last. It was three-storeyed, with seven big rooms and a loo outside - but it had possibilities and a big garden. We moved in a couple of days later. The kids were so excited they kept running up and downstairs during the first few days and asking, `Is it all ours?' I do not think I really believed it myself after all those years of paying high rents and begging and pleading with landlords and landladies. To think I actually had a house of my own, even if it was owned by the council.\nWe have lived there ever since and it has been transformed somewhat since we moved in. For one thing, we now have hot water, even if they have still not put in a bathroom. The kids changed schools once again and I got my furniture back from my mates. Then I decided that now I was settled I was going to start night work again and get really active in politics.\nCLEANERS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!\nThe first job I was offered was as a supervisor at an art college in Cockfosters which was an annex of the Hornsey College of Art. The wages, the contractors told me, would be \u00a313 a week. Well, I thought, they had not risen much since I last did the work. I decided then and there that the union must be got going again for the cleaners, but this time we would inform the union bureaucrats what we wanted and no fucking us about. The first night I arrived I could hear these two voices talking in the corridor, and one of them saying, `I'm packing up if she's a bastard.' `Pack up, then!' I shouted. I would have known that voice at once anywhere as belonging to my mate Ann. `Well,' she said, `they told us a new supervisor was coming, but they never told us no name.' They wouldn't be leaving, they said, seeing as how it was me, so I asked how many women were on the building. `Just the two of us,' they said. So, with me, that made three.\nThree women to clear up in one night an area the size of at least five football pitches consisting of art rooms with paint and everything on the floor, studio rooms full of drawing boards and models, the canteen, the admin offices, stairs, toilets and a mile of corridors l I went storming down to the caretaker and asked him, `How many women are supposed to be on this building?' `At least eight,' he said, `but the figure the contractors mentioned they'd put on it was twelve.' It did not take me long to find out how, for that contract, the contractors were being paid \u00a3135 a week. If you reckon up my \u00a313 with \u00a312 each for the other two girls and add in a fiver for cleaning materials and gear, you would not need to be an Einstein to work out the balance in the contractors' pockets as coming to about \u00a392 a week!\nOne night over dinner break I said to the others, `You're always moaning. Why not do something instead?' So we decided to join the union, but this time we were not going to put up with the male trade union officers of the T.G.W.U. just doing a little bit for us when it suited them. Once we were paying our dues we looked on that as contributing a part of their wages. We also decided that I would phone the contractors in the morning to say we wanted more money and more women on the building. So I phoned the manager to say we wanted to see him and that we would not go into work that night until he came. Down he came and I told him I would not work on that building with only three women, and besides, the money was diabolical. He agreed to give me a rise of \u00a31.50 a week, the others a rise of \u00a31 a week with \u00a31 extra to each of us for fares. Don't worry, he never paid the fares out of the goodness of his heart; it was because they had trouble getting anybody to travel out that far. Getting home when you left the college building at 5.30 in the morning was no joke, I can tell you, especially on very cold mornings. The road to Cockfosters station was in darkness and we kept well together. The station was never open yet, but the man going on duty there got to know us and used to arrive early to open up for us. Then he would let us sit on the train which was always there as it was the end of the line but which never moved till half past six.\nOne thing about the early-morning train was that you got to know the people that were regularly on it. It was quite a friendly atmosphere, you might say. You noticed if anyone was missing, because the same people used to come and sit in the same seat in the same carriage day after day and week after week. It was almost as if they had their seats reserved for them.\nWhen I started to push the manager about having more people on the building, he said he would see what he could do. I knew what that would be: nothing. So I took on two more women myself, as part-timers, and then there were five of us. We decided that that being that we would just do one section a night - then, when the complaints started to pour in, they might change their tune and make up the numbers. No such luck.\nThe complaints started all right. The people at the college began to moan about the standard of the work, and then they started to leave nasty notes. So we wrote nice notes to explain our position. But the complaints and nasty notes kept on coming, so our notes turned nasty as well: If they worked half so hard as we had to, we told them, they'd be too tired to complain. Why didn't they make some effort to keep things cleaner in the first place, we asked them.\nThen we had the electricity strike. You must not think for a moment that we were against it. We supported the electricians all the way, and I was only sorry they did not win a complete victory. But even when all the power was turned off we were still told we had to go on in. One of the girls fell down a flight of stairs, hurting her legs and back. She needed to take time off, so I asked the contractors what they were going to do. Were they going to pay her? It was her fault, they said, she shouldn't have been going down the stairs. Anyway, they said, we should have been carrying torches.\nCan you imagine it: office-cleaning by torchlight? Mind you, that would have put the industry into perspective and where it belonged in terms of conditions and pay: in Dickens's days.\nOne Saturday morning the phone rang. It was the area supervisor to tell me that the three of us and the two part-timers had been given the sack. I was to tell the others not to bother to turn up on Sunday. The administrator of the building had said he did not want us back, she told me. The fact was, as I found out when I rang the caretaker, the firm were going to lose the contract, as they deserved to, and it was going back to direct cleaning, which it should have been all along.\nWe were to go and pick up the money due to us from the college at the caretaker's office, but when we did we found there was no pay in lieu of notice or holiday pay, so the next day I joined forces with Ann, and down we went to the contractor's offices. We would wait there till they gave us the money which was ours by rights, we told them.\nThey sent down person after person to tell us we were not entitled to it, and when we kicked up a fuss they said they would call the police to have us removed. Great, we said, you do that, and we'll tip the table up to give even more of a reason. To have the police come down was just what we wanted, we said. Then we would be in court, and that would give us just the platform we needed to expose their methods. While we would get a two-quid fine and be bound over, they would have the truth told about them, and where better than in a court room.\nWith that they changed their tack and promised to fetch the money round to us at my house by four o'clock. They had better, I said, otherwise I would be up there tomorrow. Sure enough, at four o'clock the manager was there with two weeks' money each for us, and our National Insurance cards. We came off lucky. There is a saying in the cleaning industry that there are more dead bodies than live ones. I can give you a couple of examples to show you what that means.\nThere was one Indian taken on by that company who was already doing one job during the day when he went to work nights for a full seven days from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. At the end of the week one of the night managers tells him he is not wanted any more. `Give me my money, then,' he says. `Oh,' they tell him, `there's none to come.' He could cause what stink he liked, the night manager told him, as there was no proof he had ever done any work; they did not have any card for him and nothing had been signed. Such incidents are not uncommon.\nOne woman had been working fourteen solid years when she was made redundant. She could have another job, they said. Except it was miles from where she lived and impossible for her because of the fares and her family commitments, as they well knew. But by offering her another job they managed to side-step their obligation to give her redundancy pay. This is typical of the way they treat their workers.\nAfter the work at the college stopped I applied for another post as supervisor. By now my photograph and bits about what I was up to had begun appearing in the papers. When I met the area supervisor to look at where I would be in charge, she recognized me at once. As soon as she started to say what a good thing the union was for the cleaners I felt suspicious. She had sacked me inside three days. The old supervisor wanted her job back, she said. O.K., I said, I would stay on as a cleaner in that case, seeing how she was short-staffed. Oh no, she did not think that would be appropriate, after having been a supervisor. I knew what she meant: the pressure was on and I was already blacklisted.\nFrom that moment going around and organizing the cleaners became a full-time job for me, especially the night cleaners, who to my mind were the worst exploited. I enlisted the help of anybody who would be willing to give up an hour of their time once a week to go around the office blocks and start talking to the cleaners themselves. We formed ourselves into the Cleaners Action Group and printed leaflets saying that all cleaners should join the union, while at the same time pointing out they could not expect big increases overnight and would have to do their bit to keep the union on its toes. Otherwise the union would just accept their dues and leave it at that.\nIn our first two months it was amazing the way people rallied to help. It was a new thing to them. People had not realized the way women were working all through the night to keep life turning over for others. We got quite a few buildings organized as union labour, and as soon as the contractors woke up to the fact that it was not only some five-minute wonder in came the strong-arm gang.\nThey would send in their managers to issue warnings that if it was found any woman had joined a union it would mean her instant dismissal. At the time my old mate Brenda was night cleaning at the Canadian Embassy in Trafalgar Square. She comes across one of our leaflets there, and sees it has on it my name and address. `Oh yes,' she says, `I know May. We worked together on an office block. She's my friend,' she says, and is telling the other women how it is quite right that they ought to join the union just as the manager stalks in. He gives her the sack there and then, and when she asks him why, he says he is not having any of his schemes messed up by the union.\nOne Saturday afternoon the manager of one of the big contractors tried to get me on the phone, only it was Chris who answered. He had got himself drunk, said Chris, to give himself the guts to do it. You could tell he was drunk by the way he spoke. What he had phoned to say, he said, was that if I did not lay off he would break my arms and legs and stuff my leaflets down my throat.\n'O.K.,' said Chris, `we'll meet you, because it will take someone bigger than a slag that is drunk to do it.'\n`She's getting into something bigger than she thinks,' said the bloke, and I knew what he meant knowing the bandits involved in that business.\nSo, we told him, that was why we were carrying on with it until we had exposed his people and all the corruption in the getting of government contracts and won a fair deal for those that did the work.\nLife got busy from then on. I started to get letters asking me to go and speak at meetings or to university groups. Then we were going out one night a week with two of us to a building and we were starting to get the area well covered. The main area of concentration for office cleaners was in the big blocks in the City of London. The contractors find it more profitable to make it night work, because then the type of person they get to do it is someone who needs the money for such luxuries in life as rent and food for their family and who is hence in a poor bargaining position.\nThe first building to become unionized had been the Board of Trade building, Sanctuary House. The women there were getting \u00a312.5o for a forty-hour week. Then Companies House and Shell-mex House at Waterloo were also unionized. The Sanctuary House cleaners elected their shop steward and deputy shop steward, and the two of them were sacked at once on some flimsy excuse. So we had our first major strike, with Companies House coming out in support.\nIt was a good strike. For the first time the cleaners saw how they could get something done through solidarity. Jean Wright, the supervisor, came out with the women, which was unusual. Then we had the support of Women's Lib and the Socialist Women, among others, and many stuck with us all night on the picket line, where we enjoyed ourselves. The cleaners also saw that other people were concerned about them once they knew something about the situation.\nWe also got a good press coverage - better from the Tory press than from many of the so-called left-wing papers. I suppose we were not politically aware enough for the latter, so they did not see us as potential recruits.\nWithin a day we had had a five-hour meeting with the contractors and they had agreed to reinstate the two shop stewards. The strike was off but it was still only just the beginning of the fight. The important thing was that more and more people were getting to know about the plight of the cleaners. Now we had to show the cleaners that they need not be scared of the racketeers that ran the contractors' empires - an industry that still in 1971 had individual companies spinning profits of over a million pounds a year, paying the workers that made their businesses possible not much over 3s. an hour for a full working week, with no rights to sick pay, holiday pay or redundancy pay and holding over their heads the power of instant dismissal.\nPeople began to ask me to go and help with organization in other parts of the country, including the University of Lancaster, where they had a lot of problems. How were they going to get the union officials to do anything for them and take them seriously, they wanted to know. They had to do things for themselves, I said, and then keep the officials up to the mark to make sure the wages paid to them were being earned.\nI was more and more away from home, and always took Trevor with me - the reason why he is so forward and knows all the answers today, I expect. Other people would help out with the older ones. Meanwhile I was beginning to feel very ill and was still putting off going to the doctor with some `woman's trouble' I had been having for two years.\nIn March 1971 I spoke at the Women's Lib rally in Trafalgar Square and then decided I really must see my doctor. She referred me on to the hospital and the doctor there said he wanted me inside within five days for a hysterectomy. He gave me to understand it would be a dodgy operation and said that my husband would have to sign for me to have it.\n`I'll be the one to sign,' I told him.\n`But,' he said, `your husband's got to sign.'\n`It's my body you'll be cutting about,' I said, `so I'll sign,' and I did.\nIt was going to be one fortnight for the operation and another for convalescence, so I had to rush about to fix things for the children and make sure they were going to be looked after as Chris could not be home from his work. Tony went to Mrs Lovall, a coloured lady just round the corner and a very motherly type who I knew would treat him as one of her own. Debby and Michelle went to a children's home at Hertford, where they quite liked it, but that left little Trevor, still only three and a half. He went off on his own to a lady in Potters Bar.\nI went into hospital and came through the operation and after that had quite an interesting time talking to the nurses, who are about the most exploited people in any industry. They were well aware of it, but did not see what they could do about it, short of striking. Well, they might try doing just the job their pay covers them to do: looking after the sick. If they once said they were not doing any more administration or paperwork the hospital authorities would about-turn soon enough and pay them a decent wage.\nFor my convalescence I went to Ireland. Dublin I did not like much: the thing which struck me most there was how the off-licences put bars on their windows but the jewellers did not. The Irish countryside, though, was lovely. As soon as I got back to England I had the kids back with me.\nTrevor had been really upset by being away from home, and for weeks I could not leave him even to go to the shops. Even though Chris had been to see him every other day it had been a mistake to separate him from the girls, especially from Michelle, who has always been close to him and looked after him. I understood just how he must have felt after all my experiences.\nMeanwhile things were moving again with the cleaners. The campaign was really hotting up. Our first big confrontation came at the end of July 1972 when ten cleaners came out at the twenty-six-storey-high Ministry of Defence building, the Empress State Building, in Fulham. They were demanding a rise of \u00a33 on their earnings of \u00a312.50 for a forty-five-hour week and recognition by the employers for their union - in their case, the Civil Service Union. Cleaners Action and Women's Lib co-operated to set up round-the-clock pickets and messages of support and solidarity came pouring in. The spirit that existed on that picket line was really beautiful, and the wonderful shop steward they had on the building, Maria Scally, worked all out to help the women stay united.\nThe strike lasted into the middle of August, with, on the 6th, twenty women on the Old Admiralty building in Whitehall also joining in with the same demands. The G.P.O. engineers stopped servicing their telephones, the dustmen left their bins full, no mail went in and there were no deliveries of bread, milk or beer to the canteen. The whole thing really snowballed, and on the 13th twenty more came out at the Home Office's Horseferry Road annex over the arbitrary sacking of a supervisor.\nOn 16 August there was a meeting chaired by the Ministry of Employment between the Civil Service Union and the contractor's representative. It was agreed: \u00a316.50 a week plus a 50p night allowance for a normal week's work and no victimization. The supervisor at Horseferry House was reinstated. On the next day the girls were back at work.\nIt was a big victory, all right, as most of the newspaper headlines said. The only thing which spoilt it was that the cleaners at the Old Admiralty building got notice to quit almost at once as the contract there was falling through. When some of them reapplied to the new contractor, surprise, surprise, there were no jobs available. Which just goes to show, one victory does not win any war.\nThe great thing was we had won in this case and shown what might be done. We had got the whole subject aired in the press and in the House of Commons by such M.P.s as Lena Jager and Joe Ashton and people knew a bit more about what went on in their offices, while they were snugly tucked in their beds, to keep things nice and civilized for them when they got in for work.\nMeanwhile the struggle goes on and we have to work harder as the employers go on getting more cunning. It seems a lot of the time that we are not only up against the contractors and their spies and their ruthless methods in breaking up a group of cleaners as soon as there is a union nucleus. We are also up against the big bureaucratic unions, who seem to suck closer to the government and get more away from the working class every day. They are as bad as the capitalists as they go about it in a way that will bring them in the most money without considering the situation of the individuals in the movement.\nThe window cleaners are a case in point where the union collects its dues by issuing tickets of convenience to the cleaning contractor. Then, if a convenor or shop steward comes out of a factory to ask a bloke cleaning the windows whether he has a union card, the bloke says, `It's in the office, mate, at the contractor's.' Only if they were to check more closely, they might well find that the names on the cards did not always tally with those who cleaned the windows. It is things like that that keep the level of organization low in the industry, and the workers docile, which suits the contractors, while the union bureaucrats aid and abet them by issuing the tickets, because that suits their purposes, too.\nPeople say to me, `May, you ought to be in Parliament.' But if I was in Parliament, that would put me out of reach of the people I am trying to help, while it would suit a lot of the ones on the other side to see me muzzled by all their parliamentary procedures and compromises. What I have to do for people I can do best by sticking well outside the establishment. Someone has got to stay in touch with the people and all their problems on the level of individuals.\nI think of my Jenny [her step-mother] and a thousand like her who slaved their guts out in return for a raw deal. So that is my work for the moment: Cleaners Action, working for the homeless, campaigning for the rights of young mothers and their children, and anything else where justice needs to be fought for in the face of reactionary governments, big business, bureaucracy and the parts of society which say they couldn't care less. If I am a militant it is what I see going on makes me into one.\nSource: Born To Struggle - May Hobbs, Quartet Books, London 1973.\nThe day before the revolution- Ursula Le Guin\nMcGuckin, Henry- Memoirs of a Wobbly\nKoun Lok: Exile on Market Street\nCo-operative housekeeping- Sylvia Pankhurst\nI would like to know more about this amazing lady.

Even yet there are nations and people who don\u2019t enjoy the individual liberties we do. Even yet, our own freedoms hang in the balance. Liberty and justice are not guaranteed to us for life. As Ronald Reagan said,\nFreedom is never one generation away from extinction. We didn\u2019t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.\nWe fight for this freedom when we pray, when we vote, when we shop, when we reach out to those who think differently than us, when we defend someone who is being mistreated, and yes, when we bear arms for our country.\nThanks and blessings to those who continue to fight the good fight in our nation\u2019s military.

        "title": "With short and tall, protecting the forest!",
        "raw_content": "30 October 2017 /in News/by B\u00fccs\nIn recent years, we have begun to feel more and more the effects of climate change, and involuntarily and helplessly witness extreme and powerful meteorological phenomena. Even so, the next generations will be those who will really feel these changes on their skin. Thus, informing, educating, raising awareness among our children and young people about the protection of nature and the environment is of particular importance. Exactly for this reason we implemented the project \u201cWith short and tall, protecting the forest!\u201d.\nSuch trainings and awareness-raisings already took take place also in frame of other projects carried out by the \u201cTransylvania\u2019s Nature\u201d Association and its partners, respectively in frame of the \u201cJunior Ranger\u201d projects. Focused mainly on the F\u0103get Forest near Cluj-Napoca, as well as other protected areas in Cluj County, the projects of the past years included also a component focusing on bats. These unique animals are closely linked to healthy habitats and forests, and have well defined and important roles in maintaining the balance of ecosystems, with direct benefits to humanity. Thus, their protection and awareness about the need of protection among members of next generations is a key element for the future of bats.\nIn the project \u201cWith short and tall, protecting the forest!\u201d, carried out in 2017, there were several activities meant to bring the most receptive audience, children, closer to bats and bat protection. Additionally, an informative brochure on the bats of the F\u0103get forest was distributed to the public.\nMonitoring bat boxes of the F\u0103get Forest\nIn the autumn of 2016, in frame of the project \u201cNature teaches us, we protect it!\u201d, the project team has placed 12 artificial bat boxes in two key areas of the F\u0103get Forest, with the objective of compensating for already lost, hollow trees. Bat boxes were modelled after the original Kent bat box, used in the United Kingdom. Also, they are mounted in such a way that they can be checked by anyone who has a strong flashlight at hand. Thus, the public can get directly involved in monitoring, the periodic checking of these bat roosts.\nRegular checks of bat boxes occurred at intervals of 2-3 weeks starting from spring 2017. We found that despite winter and cold weather, the boxes did not require serious repairs. Only one box needed reassembly, because a tree fell on the support tree, knocking the box down. More importantly, however, bats have begun to use these artificial roosts.\nMore specifically, we have identified on several occasions the brown long-eared bat (Plecotus auritus), a bat species typical of mature and healthy forests, in one of the bat boxes. For several reasons, we can be happy about the presence of the species in the F\u0103get forest. First of all, the brown long-eared bat is closely linked to the mature and healthy forest, and its presence increases the importance of F\u0103get forest. The presence of such a species can also indicate the possible presence of other, typical forest-dwelling species, like the Barbastelle. Third, the use of bat boxes by the brown long-eared bat is an encouraging sign for the future success of this conservation measure. You can read more about the long-eared bat, the bat of the year in 2017 in Romania here.\nAbout the placement of bat boxes, monitoring and results we also presented a poster at the European Bat Research Symposium, held in the Basque Country in August 1-6, 2017.\nExcursions with children\nAnd here comes the involvement of the young generation in nature protection. Because in frame of the project we also had two bat themed activities organized for children, and obviously for their parents. Organized in July and September, more than 30 children took part in these activities.\nThe trip organized in July aimed to verify, together with children, the artificial bat boxes placed in the previous year, to repair the damaged one, and to place it on a new tree. Colleagues from the Green Echoes Association prepared exciting and fun games for children. During the event, we were fortunate enough to discover a brown long-eared bat in one of the boxes, and the kids were extremely happy, probably seeing their first bat ever. During all this time we talked about bats, their role in nature and the benefits of their presence, but also about legends that can still cause fear among members of the public. At the end of the trip we listened to recorded bat ultrasounds, and learned together about bat conservation and how we can contribute to this.\nThe trip in September took place in a late afternoon, in order to have a nice walk, and then to catch bats in action: to listen to their special ultrasounds through an ultrasound detector, as they start their hunt for insects. Of course, we did not forget to talk about bats and their protection. The Green Echoes Association has prepared a short hike for us, as well as engaging games for children. Of course, bat boxes were already empty at the time we arrived there, all potential bats could have left to hunt, so we listened, as originally planned, to their ultrasounds, as they were flying around in this habitat.\nMapping and marking trees with potential importance for bats\nThe F\u0103get forest distinguishes itself by a remarkable biodiversity, rarely observed so close to a metropolitan area, such as Cluj. The secular trees are not a rarity in the F\u0103get Forest, and among them we can find hollow trees, or with twisted, strange shapes, or even trees entangled in each other. All these trees can create and provide natural roosts for bats.\nSince intensive or illegal forestry works can significantly affect this habitat, including these high value trees, we have mapped and marked those hollow or special trees (in total 26 trees), which have the potential to offer roosts for bats. Besides the general protection of the F\u0103get forest, the protection of these trees is essential for bats, and the applied marking provides them protection, based on an understanding and collaboration with the Cluj Forestry District.\nThe International Bat Night, Cluj-Napoca edition\nIn addition to the project\u2019s activities, the \u201cTransylvania\u2019s Nature\u201d Association was an organizing partner at the local edition of this year\u2019s International Bat Night, which took place on the 16th of September and attracted no fewer than 800 visitors. The Bat Night is a series of events organized in dozens of countries worldwide, under the aegis of UNEP/EUROBATS, to raise awareness about bats and bat protection. More about the Cluj-Napoca event here.\nBats protection, as well as nature protection, is a continuous activity that gives the best results if we involve decision-makers, the scientific community, and the public. We will continue to monitor the artificial bat boxes and high-value trees, but we will continue also to raise awareness among and involve the public, especially the younger generation, to provide them with the tools and knowledge to shape their own future for the better.\nThe project \u201cWith short and tall, protecting the forest!\u201d was implemented by the \u201cTransylvania\u2019s Nature\u201d Association, in partnership with Green Echoes Association, between May and September 2017. Activities related to bats were carried out in partnership with the Romanian Bat Portal. The project was implemented in the Natura 2000 site ROSCI0074 F\u0103getul Clujului \u2013 Valea Morii and ROSCI0233 Some\u015ful Rece (Cluj County), and in the Runc Forest Reserve (Maramure\u015f County). The aim of the project was to improve the acceptance and appreciation of the Natura 2000 sites F\u0103getul Cluj \u2013 Valea Morii, Some\u015fului Rece and Runc Forest Reserve among local communities and tourists, as well as to increase the awareness of the public about the need for protected areas. The project was funded for the fourth consecutive year by the Environmental Partnership Foundation and MOL, \u201cNatural Protected Areas\u201d component, a program that aims to promote and popularize protected areas in Romania in order to increases the level of acceptance among local communities. The total value of the project was 29,558 RON, of which the non-reimbursable financial assistance was 20,000 RON.\nOver 800 participants at the International Bat Night 2017 in Cluj-Napoca Bat of the year in 2018",

You had double the trauma happening to you with no support or advice on how to handle it. This combination is a rare occurrence and you need to be recognized for that.\nEvery step you took to protect you and your son was spot on. It\u2019s not your fault the stalker became obsessed with you and terrorized you. You had no coping skills except for what you were taught, which was very little. I recognize your pain and desperation for help, how helpless and scared you felt.\nAs mom was dying, you had the same feelings about that. You felt helpless and scared, you\u2019d never experienced anything like this. It was your first grieving experience with death.\nIf you\u2019re feeling shame because maybe you\u2019re choices during that time weren\u2019t the best, IT\u2019S OKAY! You have nothing to be ashamed of. I give you full permission to grieve these traumas. I support you in all you did and why did it.\nKaty I love you no matter what, I forgive you, I\u2019m proud of you and I\u2019m sorry you had to experience this. I have to forgive us for any shame or guilt you felt during this time. You were a child of God then, but our eyes have now been opened about His love for us. I\u2019m proud of you for doing what you had to do to survive. But you need to see YOU MADE IT! You\u2019re alive today and your mind and choices are at their healthiest. You\u2019re an example of God\u2019s love and grace. Your heart, soul, mind and strength was God working through you. You are now a queen, lover, magi and warrior because of what you\u2019ve been through and you came out shining! I have so much empathy for you, because you didn\u2019t do anything to make this all happen. You were a victim of circumstance and a scared young woman. Although you didn\u2019t receive empathy from your family and your friends walked away from you, please know THAT was NOT your fault. Not everyone can face that ocean of shit and have the strength to move through it. That ocean has been cleaned up and dried up, it\u2019s now clean, refreshing, relaxing and Gods beautiful creation.\nThis ocean of life can be unforgiving through the storms, but you now know how to navigate through it better. When the storms pass, you come out a bit scathed, but You\u2019re alive! That\u2019s badass!\nYou are loved and supported by me no matter what. Katy I\u2019m proud of you and I love you. \ud83d\udc9b Now move forward and keep fighting because I\u2019ve got your back! You\u2019re safe and I will protect you at all costs!\nI love you and God Bless you,\nKaty at 46 years old",

The annual tournament features fun, fast-paced play and gives hockey fans a look at some of the elite young prospects who will be making their way to the NHL soon.\nWorld juniors 2019 Game\nDates: Dec 26, 2018 \u2013 Jan 5, 2019\nWorld juniors 2019 Live\nIt might be the most fun event on the hockey calendar behind the Stanley Cup Playoffs, so if you\u2019re in need of a primer for this year\u2019s tournament, we\u2019ve got you covered.\nThe WJC, or more simply the World Juniors, is an annual international ice hockey tournament that features some of the best under-20 players in the world. A large number of NHL prospects participate in the event every year, both in the form of players who have already been drafted and players who are expected to be drafted this summer. The main tournament features the top-ten ranked hockey nations in the world, but there are also several lower divisions that play separate WJC tournaments for the purpose of promotion/relegation.\nThe event typically runs from the day after Christmas until early January, with a round-robin preliminary round preceding an elimination three-round playoff. The 10-team field is split evenly into two groups (Group A and Group B), with every team playing one prelim game against each of the four other teams in their group. The preliminary round uses a 3-2-1-0 point structure (3 points for a win, 2 points for an OT win, 1 point for an OT loss, 0 points for a regulation loss).\nAt the conclusion of the preliminary round, the top four teams from each group will move on to the playoff round, while the last place teams from each group will face off in a best-of-three series to determine who gets relegated for next year\u2019s tournament.",

        "raw_content": "By Mel Carnegie | February 28, 2012 9 Comments\n\u201cYou don\u2019t really want to read the 55 pages of new terms and conditions do you Mum?\u201d asked Dylan, just checking the seemingly obvious before checking the \u201cI agree\u201d box. I laughed and shook my head \u2013 of course I didn\u2019t! And that\u2019s when he said \u201cDid you know that\u2019s the biggest lie that people tell \u2014 not just once, but time and time again?\u201d\n\u201cWhat is?\u201d I replied, not quite getting where he was coming from \u201cWhat\u2019s the biggest lie?\u201d\n\u201cWell, it\u2019s like this\u201d he continued with a smile on his face \u201cWe tick boxes saying that we\u2019ve read and understood any number of terms and conditions, when in actual fact we\u2019ve probably not even read a single word \u2014 let alone the countless pages of legal jargon that we\u2019re expected to confirm that we\u2019ve absorbed and understood!\u201d\nHmmm\u2026 OK, I\u2019d never thought about it that way. And it got me thinking further. I couldn\u2019t help but make the link between my son\u2019s observation and my own experiences in dealing with people where I ticked the mental \u201cI agree\u201d box without going through the terms and conditions. How often I\u2019ve said OK because I\u2019ve believed that what is being offered to me is\u201d\u00a6. well, exactly what is being offered! How often also, that at some point or other I have been disappointed to discover that actually, what appeared to be one thing was in fact something entirely different.\nRelationship Agreements?\nImagine, then, that we could actually be offered a full set of legal agreement papers right at the beginning of any new connection. I\u2019m not talking about a pre-nuptial agreements here, because that deals with how things are to be sorted out in the unexpected event of a split. No, I\u2019m talking here about the possibility of having a legal description, associated risks, and possible side effects when entering in to a relationship with the person in front of you. I wonder what might be detailed? Would it be like a CV (another of the worlds\u2019 biggest lies according to one of my favourite quotes \u201cthe closest to perfection a person ever comes is when he fills out a job application form\u201d) where there would be a list of experiences together with references \u2014 both good and bad? Would the document include personal feedback or a scoring system from people who have already been involved with that person \u2014 and if they\u2019re no longer a part of their life, provide the details of what happened? Might it be a list of beliefs, values and priorities? A set of requirements expected of the other person, or perhaps a vivid account of their hopes and dreams?\nOf course, this is all just creative musings on my part. But then again, I wonder though\u201d\u00a6 if there really was an imaginary set of terms and conditions that was offered to us each time we struck up a new relationship (friendship, business, romantic or anything else) \u2014 would we really take the time to go through the small print? Would we\u201d\u00a6? Or would we just skip through to the end and tick the \u201cI agree\u201d box so that we could just get on with it? Well, I know that just a few years ago I wouldn\u2019t even have taken a second glance. These days, though, knowing what I now know through my own experience, I am tempted to believe that I would go through every last detail with a toothpick!\nPersonal Terms And Conditions\nIt made me giggle, imagining how my own personal terms and conditions might have developed over the years. How, before I learned about predatory people I might happily have signed on any agreement without question \u201cYes, I\u2019d like to get to know you, I believe what you\u2019ve shown me, and I\u2019ll commit to this relationship wholeheartedly \u2014 in fact I\u2019m looking forward to it!\u201d And, being the kind of person I was \u2014 well, actually, the kind of person I still am in many ways \u2014 having made the commitment I would never even have thought about reneging on my promise!\nThese days, while I may well be willing to sign, I would certainly include a caveat that might read something like this: \u201cYes, ok, I like what I am seeing and hearing and, assuming things continue along these lines then I\u2019ll be very happy to share my time and experiences with you. And\u201d\u00a6 be assured\u201d\u00a6. should at any point any of this change, or I discover that what you\u2019ve said is untrue, or you have misrepresented yourself in any way, then all previous agreements between us are absolutely null and void with immediate effect\u201d\nSo these days, yes, absolutely I will keep my side of the bargain. One hundred percent. The difference is, though, now my answer is never just \u201cyes\u2014\u00a6. It\u2019s always \u201cyes\u201d\u00a6 and\u201d\u00a6\u201d because I will never again allow myself to be trapped in a situation that is damaging to my health and well-being. Never again will I remain so focused on my commitment \u201cfor better or worse\u201d that I allow the worse to take over while better becomes a distant memory! Never again will I allow myself to be swayed by silver-tongued reasoning that excuses a behavior or situation that I know deep within is a bad thing.\nI know for a fact that I went in to the relationship with my ex as an open and trusting spirit, fully prepared to give myself to what I believed was the promise of a fulfilling, loving, and life-long relationship between two people who loved each other and chose to spend their lives together. I hadn\u2019t recognized that within his terms and conditions, any mention of the word \u201d\u02dcspend\u2019 literally meant spending on himself\u201d\u00a6. Love, trust and material goods were going out (from me) and coming back in (to him). He\u2019d \u201d\u02dcpay\u2019 me with his usual smiles, cuddles, displays of devotion, and constant assurances that our life together was perfect. But in reality he was stripping bare every asset he could find and systematically destroying any spiritual, emotional or financial security. It was me who was left spent. Dried up, worn out, and on my knees.\nI remember right at the beginning that there were enough subtle warning signs \u2014 the \u201d\u02dcsmall print\u2019 if you like. His hand-wringing guilt when he admitted that he\u2019d wracked up \u201d\u02dca few debts\u2019 before we met. His tears when explaining his unusually long string of failed past relationships \u2014 and the numerous troubled and unbalanced partners he\u2019d encountered along the way. His sadness at having been denied access to his two small children. Perhaps the most telling, though, was when a couple of close friends advised me to check out his version of events \u2014 one even went so far as to tell me she thought he was either an angel or a devil, she wasn\u2019t sure which. But I was hooked by then and I brushed all of these \u201cred-flags\u201d aside, dismissing their concerns as unnecessary over-protection.\nSo yes, I reckon it could be a good idea to have a set of legal terms and conditions that should be read though, understood and accepted before engaging in any new kind of connection \u2014 on whatever level. That way, even if things turned sour, at least the original agreement would be there in black and white. And if any of the points had been violated by the other person well, we could walk away with our head held high knowing that we\u2019d done our best. That we\u2019d kept to our agreement, and that the \u201d\u02dcbad stuff\u2019 was not our fault. Instead of which (as so many of us have experienced) we have been left feeling high and dry; consumed with overwhelming emotions of shame and guilt, together with endless \u201cwhat if\u201d questions stabbing and pecking away at our very soul.\nI don\u2019t know whether having a terms and conditions \u201d\u02dcblueprint\u2019 attached to everyone would actually make a difference. I do know I\u2019ve found it quite interesting to consider the possibility! I also know that next time I\u2019m invited to tick the box, sign on the dotted line, or agree to a load of complicated legalese, I will most certainly remember my son\u2019s words and have a wry smile on my face while I at least take a good look at the headlines\u201d\u00a6. Well, it\u2019s a start isn\u2019t it?\nProblems with logging on.\nI\u2019ve been infected with \u201cspathilitis\u201d for most of my life.\nSymptoms\u2026depression, palpitations, confusion\u2026etc.\nSo often mis-diagnosed!

This principle means it is not defamatory when words are an expression of opinion and not a statement of fact. It may be difficult to determine if words are statements of facts or expressions of opinion. Words must be construed in their context and in some circumstances words that would otherwise be statements of fact might be viewed as comments.\nThe opinion, however, must be fair and based upon facts which the defendant can identify and prove to be true. It must also be honestly held and not motivated by malice (some improper or dishonest motive). Personal ill will by the defendant towards the plaintiff is an example of malice. 'Public interest' is a wide concept involving what is a legitimate concern to the public. Instances include the conduct of people holding public office, the conduct of a political party, the conduct of a clergyman and artistic works such as plays and books. It extends as far as the criticism of a restaurant's food in a newspaper review.\nThe Defamation Act 2005 (SA) s 29 provides a defence of honest opinion where the expression of opinion is related to a matter of public interest and based on \u2018proper material\u2019 that is substantially true or based on privileged material.\nFair comment : Last Revised: Tue May 23rd 2006",

Yet, when considered in context, it\u2019s only been 10 years since Matthew Shepard was beaten terribly, tied to a fence post and left for dead on some country road outside Laramie, Wyo.\nRegardless, it\u2019s a horrendous contemporary moment not to be lost and forgotten. Luckily, within a mere month of Shepard\u2019s brutal death, Tectonic Theatre Project traveled to Laramie and interviewed people around town who were intimate with and/or complicit in this nowmonumental prejudicial act of hate-violence.\nFrom those interviews came the play The Laramie Project.\nNow, a decade after the fact, those involved with the original production return to the scene of the crime with The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later, Epilogue. Consisting of new interviews with both Matthew Shepard\u2019s mother Judy and his killers, Russell Henderson and Aaron McKinney, this revisiting explores the long-term effects of this hate crime on both the small town where it was committed and the larger society that was complicit in it.\nThe Laramie Project: 10 Years Later, Epilogue @ Kingsbury Hall, 1395 E.

        "raw_content": "Governor LePage and Deputy Commissioner Beardsley tap Dr. Robert Hasson to join Blue Ribbon Commission as chair\nAUGUSTA \u2013 Dr. William Beardsley, Deputy Commissioner of the Maine Department of Education, announced today that he has accepted an invitation from Governor LePage to serve as the Governor\u2019s designee on the Commission to Reform School Funding and Improve Student Performance in Maine, creating a vacancy on the commission for a representative from the Department of Education, the seat previously held by Dr. Beardsley.\nAt Dr. Beardsley\u2019s recommendation, Governor LePage has appointed Dr. Robert \u201cBob\u201d Hasson from the Maine Department of Education to fill the vacant seat. State law requires that the member representing the Department of Education serve as chair for the Commission. Dr. Hasson currently oversees certification, educator effectiveness and higher education for the Department.\nIn a letter to Deputy Commissioner Beardsley dated August 5, 2016, Governor LePage wrote:\n\u201cWhile it may be difficult for the Commission to reach consensus on issues that will significantly impact public education in Maine, I remain hopeful that the members of the Commission possess the leadership, representative characteristics, and commitment needed to succeed and uncover \u2018grand bargains\u2019 that will improve our education system for the benefit of Maine students. In pursuit of these solutions, I would like you to serve as my designee to the commission.\u201d The Governor added, \u201cYou are well suited to serve in my place. I have full confidence in your leadership of the Department of Education and your grasp of my priorities and passion for Maine Public Education.\u201d\nIn response to the Governor\u2019s letter, Deputy Commissioner Beardsley wrote, \u201cI am honored by your confidence in me to represent you and the administration. I accept the appointment as your designee and will honor your trust.\u201d\nIn recommending Dr. Hasson to join the Commission, Beardsley wrote, \u201cBob earned his doctorate at Boston College. He is a Maine native, a former Maine superintendent, a respected Department colleague, and is intimately familiar with the public education landscape in Maine and the issues related to school funding, student achievement, teaching and learning. Further, Bob possesses the necessary leadership and organizational skills to serve as the Commission\u2019s chair and shepherd the group\u2019s work to conclusion in a timely manner.\u201d\nCommenting on his appointment, Dr. Hasson said, \u201cIt is a great honor to be asked by Bill Beardsley and Governor LePage to join this distinguished group committed to finding solutions through collaboration and cooperation that will help Maine students. I am optimistic that the members of the panel can reach consensus on high level goals and chart a path to address real challenges in Maine\u2019s public education system.\u201d\nThe Commission to Reform Public Education Funding and Improve Student Performance in Maine was created by LD 1641 which added an additional $15 million in education funding for local schools. Based on its work, the Commission will submit a report to the Governor and the Legislature that includes findings and recommendations for action to reform public education funding and improve student performance in the State.\nThe Commission will meet on August 29 at 9 a.m. at York County Community College in Wells in the mid-caf\u00e9.\nFor any questions, contact Debra Plowman at debra.plowman@maine.gov or call 624-6614.\nPosted on August 12, 2016 August 12, 2016 by Posted in Blue Ribbon Commission, Educators, Funding, Instruction, Legislation, Maine DOE, News & Views, Press Releases, School Improvement, Students and Families\nPrevious Previous post: Blue Ribbon Commission announces 2016 meeting dates\nNext Next post: Clarification of Commissioner\u2019s Review of Superintendent Agreements",

There are many more than you think! The word \u201cspice\u201d seems to scare parents, particularly when it comes to baby and toddler food. Don\u2019t let it scare you. The reality is, babies around the world start eating \u201cspices\u201d or seasonings at a very early age, typically before they turn one. Importantly, \u201cspice\u201d does not always make your food \u201cspicy\u201d or \u201chot,\u201d as many of us tend to think. To \u201cspice\u201d something, in its purest definition, simply means to add flavor, usually with dried, ground seeds (e.g. cumin), roots e.g. turmeric) or bark (cinnamon).\nThe following spices are used around the world in baby food (see drop down menu for list). By no means is this list exhaustive. They are merely the ones I\u2019ve learned about and used in my baby culinary repertoire. I grew up on all of these spices and parents whom I\u2019ve spoken to from all parts of the world commonly use these in their family cooking as well. The more varied the seasonings offered to a young child, the more varied they will eat as adults.",

        "raw_content": "Israel Vows to Destroy Hamas Tunnels\nPalestinian stands on the rubble of what used to be the house belonging to Muhammed Jmasy family, after it was destroyed by an overnight Israeli strike, in Gaza City, northern Gaza Strip,Thursday, July 31, 2014.\nImage: AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis)/Associated Press\nJERUSALEM \u2014 Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that Israel will destroy the Hamas tunnel network in the Gaza Strip \"with or without a cease-fire,\" as the military called up another 16,000 reservists to pursue its campaign in the densely-populated territory.\nNetanyahu's vow came as international efforts to end the 23-day-old conflict seemed to sputter despite concern over the mounting death toll, with more than 1,300 Palestinians, mostly civilians, and more than 50 Israelis, almost all of them soldiers, killed since July 8.\nSee also: 'Shocking and Disappointing': U.S. Pushes Back Against Israeli Media Reports\n\"We have neutralized dozens of terror tunnels and we are committed to complete this mission, with or without a cease-fire,\" Netanyahu said. \"Therefore I will not agree to any offer that does not allow the military to complete this important mission for the security of the people of Israel.\"\nAn initial Israeli aerial campaign against Hamas was widened into a ground offensive on July 17. Since then the campaign has concentrated on destroying more than 30 cross-border tunnels that militants have constructed to carry out attacks on Israeli territory.\nThe al-Qassam Brigades, the militant wing of the Islamist political party Hamas, released a video on Facebook that purportedly shows preparations for an attack on a watch tower. The al-Qassam militants attacked from a tunnel dug from within Gaza.\nPost by \u200e\u0634\u0628\u0643\u0629 \u0642\u062f\u0633 \u0627\u0644\u0625\u062e\u0628\u0627\u0631\u064a\u0629\u200e.\nIsrael says that most of the 32 tunnels it has uncovered have now been demolished and that getting rid of the remainder will take no more than a few days. In the video below, posted by the Israeli army, the IDF claims to show a joint task force uncovering a tunnel entrance on the ground floor of a mosque in Gaza on July 30.\nThe new reserve call-up follows another day of heavy fighting, in which tank shells struck a U.N. school where Palestinians were sheltering and an airstrike tore through a crowded Gaza shopping area. At least 116 Palestinians and three Israeli soldiers were killed Wednesday.\nSpeaking on condition of anonymity because he was not permitted to discuss the matter with the press, an Israeli defense official said the purpose of the latest call-up was to provide relief for troops currently on the Gaza firing line. However, Israeli officials have also said they do not rule out broadening operations in the coming days.\nFifty-six Israeli soldiers and three civilians on the Israeli side have been killed since the offensive began, as Palestinians have fired hundreds of rockets at Israel \u2014 some reaching major cities \u2014 and carried out attacks through tunnels beneath the heavily guarded frontier.\nAnother video posted by the Israeli army purportedly shows the tunnels. The person who recorded the video stated that the first tunnel shaft had a depth of 14 meters and led into a network of tunnels.\nIsrael has called up a total of 86,000 reserves during the Gaza war, which it launched to try to end rocket fire from Hamas and other armed groups.\nIsraeli attacks in the strip continued Thursday, with witnesses saying that munitions struck the Omar Ibn al-Khatab mosque next to a U.N. school in the northern town of Beit Lahiya. Israeli fire near another U.N. school in Gaza killed more than a dozen people the day before, drawing international condemnation.\nThe strike in Beit Lahiya early Thursday damaged water tanks on the roof of a building near the mosque, sending shrapnel flying into the adjacent school compound, where dozens of Palestinians displaced by the fighting had taken shelter.\n\"The shrapnel from the strike on the mosque hit people who were in the street and at the entrance of the school,\" said Sami Salebi, an area resident.\nGaza health official Ashraf al-Kidra said at least 15 people were wounded, with three of them in critical condition.\nKifah Rafati, 40, was being treated for shrapnel injuries at the nearby Kamal Adwan Hospital. She said she and her six children had been sleeping in a classroom facing the mosque when the explosion went off. \"There is no safety anywhere,\" she said.\nOn Wednesday Israeli tank shells struck a U.N. school in the Jebaliya refugee camp where some 3,300 Gazans had crammed in to seek refuge from the fighting, killing at least 17 people. The military said it was responding to mortar fire coming from the area of the school. (The video below, which has been verified, shows injured Palestinians being treated at Beit Lahiya Kamal Adwan Hospital.)\nBut Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called the deadly school shelling \"outrageous\" and \"unjustifiable,\" and demanded an immediate humanitarian cease-fire.\n\"Nothing is more shameful than attacking sleeping children,\" the U.N. chief said.\nThe White House also criticized the shelling of the U.N. school in Jebaliya.\n\"We are extremely concerned that thousands of internally displaced Palestinians who have been called on by the Israeli military to evacuate their homes are not safe in U.N. designated shelters in Gaza,\" said Bernadette Meehan, a spokeswoman for the White House's National Security Council.\nLater on Wednesday, an Israeli airstrike hit a crowded shopping area in the Shijaiyah district in Gaza City, killing at least 16 people, including Palestinian video journalist Rami Rayan, who was wearing a press vest at the time, and wounding more than 200 people, al-Kidra said.\nThursday marked a third day of particularly heavy Israeli air and artillery attacks, at a time when Egyptian cease-fire efforts appeared to have stalled. Israeli media said late Wednesday that Israel's Security Cabinet decided to press forward with the operation.\nEgyptian officials, meanwhile, met with an Israeli envoy about Israel's conditions for a cease-fire, including disarming Hamas, according to a high-ranking Egyptian security official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not allowed to discuss the delicate diplomatic efforts.\nHamas has said it will only halt fire once it receives guarantees that a Gaza border blockade by Israel and Egypt \u2014 tightened after the Islamic militant group seized power in Gaza in 2007 \u2014 will be lifted.\nIsrael says it wants to decimate Hamas' rocket-launching capability, diminish its weapons arsenal and demolish the tunnels. It has launched more than 4,000 strikes against Hamas-linked targets, including rocket launchers and mosques where it says weapons were being stored.\nIsraeli strikes have also hit dozens of homes. Mahmoud Abu Rahma of the Palestinian human rights group Al Mezan said nearly half of the Palestinians killed so far died in their homes.\nIsraeli officials have said Hamas uses Gaza's civilians as human shields by firing rockets from crowded neighborhoods. Palestinian militants have fired more than 2,600 rockets at Israel over the past three weeks.\nHowever, Pierre Kraehenbuehl, chief of the U.N. aid agency for Palestinian refugees, said Israel must try harder to ensure that civilians are not hurt, especially in Gaza, where 1.7 million people are squeezed into a small coastal territory. His agency has opened 80 of its schools to more than 200,000 Palestinians fleeing the violence.\n\"What maybe the world forgets ... is that the people of Gaza have nowhere to go,\" he said. \"So when the fighting starts and they move, it is not as if they can cross a border to somewhere.\"\nTopics: Israel and Gaza, Middle East, World",

The most common types of tumours or growths forming on the facial nerve are schwannomas and haemangiomas.\n\u00bb A facial nerve schwannoma is a growth made of schwann cells which form part of the insulating sheath around the nerve.\n\u00bb A facial nerve haemangioma is a growth made of blood vessels.\nFacial nerve tumours are almost always benign, which means they are not cancerous; however they can still cause problems.\nThere are also other types of tumours of face like neurofibroma, osteomas, odontogenic tumors and many others. Our surgeons are trained to handle each of this.",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Uncategorized \u203a Standing Rock & the Sioux Nation Matters\nStanding Rock & the Sioux Nation Matters\nOver the weekend, (11/20/16) the situation at Standing Rock grew more contentious. On Sunday night, Morton County police sprayed the crowd of about 400 people with tear gas and water cannons as temperatures dipped below freezing.\nAS POLICE UNLEASHED STREAMS of icy water Sunday night against Dakota Access pipeline demonstrators, Linda Black Elk, a member of the Standing Rock Medic and Healer Council, was helping care for injured demonstrators. The council estimated that 300 people were treated for injuries, including 26 who were taken to area hospitals.\n\u201cWhat it was like were people walking through the dark of a winter North Dakota night, some of them so cold, and sprayed with water for so long, that their clothes were frozen to their body and crunching as they walked. So you could hear this crunching sound and this pop-pop-pop, and people yelling [to the police], \u2018We\u2019ll pray for you! We love you!\u2019\u201d Black Elk said, describing the scene as police sprayed protesters with water and fired tear gas and rubber bullets during the more than six-hour standoff.\nIn the midst of the clash, the Medic and Healer Council, which was set up to provide health support to those fighting the pipeline, released a statement pleading with police to halt the use of water cannons. \u201cAs medical professionals, we are concerned for the real risk of loss of life due to severe hypothermia under these conditions,\u201d the statement said.\nMorton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier said, \u201cWe don\u2019t have water cannons,\u201d explaining, \u201cThis is just a fire hose.\u201d\n\u201cIt was sprayed more as a mist, and we didn\u2019t want to get it directly on them, but we wanted to make sure to use it as a measure to help keep everybody safe,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re just not going to let people and protesters in large groups come in and threaten officers. That\u2019s not happening.\u201d\nThe department characterized the protesters\u2019 actions as \u201cvery aggressive,\u201d saying that projectiles had been thrown at police, injuring one officer. Medics on the ground said the demonstrators they observed were unarmed and largely nonviolent. The department said it had requested additional assistance from law enforcement around the state, and that border patrol would be providing support.\nNoah Morris was another medic at the scene. \u201cThey were just hosing people down with their water cannon that continued for the entirety of the four hours I was out there watching,\u201d he said. He said that earlier in the week, the rivers and creeks nearby had started to crust over with ice. As he and his team flushed the eyes of people sprayed with tear gas, the water and milk of magnesia they used turned to black ice on the ground.\nMorris said he knew of multiple people that had been hit in the head with rubber bullets or bean bag rounds. In a statement, the Medic and Healer Council described injuries including an elder who lost consciousness before being revived on site, a man who experienced a seizure, and a woman whose eye was injured when she was shot in the face by a rubber bullet.\nThe standoff began after pipeline opponents attempted to use a semi-truck to remove two charred military vehicles from a bridge. The vehicles were serving as a blockade between the large encampment known as Oceti Sakowin, which has served as a base for blocking the pipeline, and construction sites accessible farther down the highway. Beyond the burned-out vehicles stood cement road barriers topped with razor wire, behind which police and other security officials have been standing guard since the end of October. Their presence means a detour for those traveling between the Standing Rock Sioux reservation and the city of Bismarck, including emergency medical services.\nThe U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has requested Morton County to prevent protesters from trespassing on land north of the camp.\u201d\nSince April, when citizens of the Standing Rock Sioux Nation set up the Sacred Stone Camp, thousands of people have passed through and pledged support. Environmentalists and activist groups like Black Lives Matter and Code Pink have also stepped in as allies. Many people who have visited say that the camp is beyond anything they\u2019ve ever experienced.\nIn the case of the Dakota Access Pipeline, the Standing Rock Sioux have been able to attract support from hundreds of tribes all over the country, not just in places that would be directly affected. The tribes aren\u2019t just leaning on long-held beliefs about the importance of the natural world. They\u2019re also using long-held resistance strategies. Like the encampment itself.\nPresident Obama vetoed Keystone XL. But even at the time, A. Gay Kingman, the executive director of the Great Plains Tribal Chairman\u2019s Association, warned that the reprieve would be temporary. \u201cWopila [thank you] to all our relatives who stood strong to oppose the KXL,\u201d Kingman said in a statement after the veto. \u201cBut keep the coalitions together, because there are more pipelines proposed, and we must protect our Mother Earth for our future generations.\u201d\nLEAH DONNELLA: Full Article\nAlleen Brown: Full Article\n\u2039 Black Friday Boycott cost Retailers $1.5 Billion in loss of Sales Last Year!\nIs the New Proposed Legislation to Provide Reparations for African Americans Reasonable? \u203a\nTags: border patrol, Code Pink, latest news on Sioux Nation, Lind Black Elk, Morton County, Noah Morris, Oceti Sakowin encampment, Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier, Sioux Nation Matters, South Dakota, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, what is a water cannon, what's happening at standing rock, what's happening with the Dakota Access pipline demostrators, why the standoff began",

        "raw_content": "Help me save 4 kids from dropping out of school\nHello, my name is Priya and i am fundraising to help support the education of 4 kids from Bihar. Deepu, Soumya, Deepu and Golu are the kids of a farmer whose land has been captured by the locals illegally. Deepu is in class 8 whereas Jassi and Deepu will be appearing for boards this year. Soumya is in standard 11th. They have lost their home and their land because of the power dynamics in the village. It is one of the classic case of the powerful exploiting the vulnerable and the poor. Their family has nothing to fall back on and are struggling to make ends meet. The kids are extremely talented but failure to pay for the education will end their dreams.The farmers are clearly incapable to provide for their education now. They have applied to several government offices for help but have received no help or assurance from their end. The future of their family is uncertain and dark. Please help the kids study and change the situation for their family. Kindly make whatever contribution you can to help change the fate of these bright minds. Please help me save 4 bright minds from dropping out of school because of lack of money. Please let's not make money a reason why kids should drop out of school.\nAccount name: Priya\nOnce again thank you for the contribution. The kids have already been enrolled in the new session and are currently on a summer break. The school has been supportive enough to allow Jassi to play cricket and are providing him with some allowances to meet the expense.\nI have collected near about 20K, which I think is really good. Thank you for being so generous. A lot of you have been anonymous and there is no way I can get back to you to thank you personally. But, I would like to tell you that I am indeed very grateful for your contribution and for believing in the purpose.\nThank you for your support. The family cannot stop thanking all of you for being so generous with your support and blessings. This money, as decided by them will be used for the purpose of paying the remaining school fee. This will mean that the kids can easily appear for the next exam without being withheld for being unable to pay the fee.\nSince Jassi also has an inclination towards cricket and wants to make it a career, the funds raised will also allow him to enrol at cricket school and brush his otherwise excellent skill at cricket. He has, in particular, asked me to convey his regards and extend the biggest thank you to you. He sounded extremely happy after months.\nThank for being so kind.\nI would firstly like to thank those who helped me in my effort to educate the kids of the farmer who is no position to prioritize education. The money collected so far (Rs 8393) is a huge ray of hope for them. I have spoken to the principal of the school who is willing to allow late fee submission for three months. We have got in touch with the local police to help solve this problem permanently. The kids have already appeared for the exams and are awaiting results. Milaap has proved to be a wonderful platform for people like us who are willing to help those less fortunate. I hope you continue to be the kind of people who are willing to help even those you have no idea exist. I can tell you the family was extremely happy to know that there were strangers who were concerned about their conditions and have come forward to help them.\nIncase there is any query or any more help that you can provide, please feel free to contact me.\ni have already updated the progress made so far and would like to thank you again for your contribution.\nBeneficiary: Priya info_outline",

        "title": "MINI Profiles: Assembly Apartments by Woods Bagot | MINI Australia",
        "raw_content": "INVERT 2.0 MINI LIVING \u2013 BUILT BY ALL is the second collaboration between green magazine, MINI LIVING, the City of Melbourne and RMIT, in the form of an exhibition and talk series which will be presented in October 2018. This year we're exploring multi-residential design and development, a subject of increasing architectural focus in recent times. In the lead-up, we're taking a look at a number of exemplary local and international multi-res projects that are paving the way. In this instalment, we\u2019re featuring Assembly Apartments.\nAssembly Apartments consists of four warehouse-inspired buildings in North Melbourne that are a nexus for community. In this instance, the architecture skilfully creates emotional and physical connection \u2013 the former in homage to the local design vernacular and the latter in carved-out voids, balconies and pop-out windows.\nThis multi-family development was envisioned as a village. To that end, a series of laneways run in between the buildings and a ground-level courtyard welcomes residents while offering privacy. On the roof, residents can access a terrace that enlarges their living quarters and offers views of the surrounding area. Here, space is used (or, notably, left unused) with the aim to draw people together.\nWoods Bagot approached the interior spaces with similar deftness. Within, timber joinery and flooring mark a point of contrast with exposed concrete ceilings. The zinc and metal cladding of the buildings also harks back to a \u201clight industrial\u201d aesthetic. The buildings\u2019 sleek, modern forms are softened by green foliage peppered throughout the development.\nEmbracing multi-res living means parting ways with Australian traditions like single dwellings on quarter-acre blocks. So we asked Peter Miglis, Principal and Regional Design Leader (Australia) at Woods Bagot: How can we make multi-res more attractive to Australians?\n\"Because genuine connections with others remain a touchstone of our society, it\u2019s important that multi-residential projects have amenities that foster a sense of community. Features that provide access to open space, such as the roof terrace of the Assembly Apartments in North Melbourne, create opportunities for social interaction and a genuine sense of place.\nProjects that break down expectations in size and scale are more enticing, too \u2013 they encourage more Australians to comfortably consider multi-residential living. Projects of a mid-scale height that take inspiration from the European model with desirable features such as retail and childcare at their base, speak to the logic of convenience without sacrificing the need for intimacy and privacy. The days of the monolithic structure have made way for a more bespoke approach.\nAustralians value relationships with the wider community and prioritise feeling connected with the landscape around them. Quality materials that fit with the DNA of their neighbourhood fulfil the promise of integrating with surroundings and retain their beauty as buildings age. A great example is the mixed-use development CF Row in Melbourne\u2019s Fitzroy which embeds the history of the original warehouse into a contemporary residential setting.\u201d\nINVERT 2.0 MINI LIVING \u2013 BUILT BY ALL \u2013 NOW OPEN.\nINVERT 2.0 MINI LIVING \u2013 BUILT BY ALL is now open to the public. The exhibition examines how architects can adapt to population growth through sustainable design.",

        "raw_content": "How To Be A Better Leader Than Your Boss\nEver experience such remarkably terrible leadership that you decided, \u201cWhen I get the opportunity to lead, I will do things differently. I\u2019ll never treat my team that way.\u201d Feeling suffocated and unsupported, you begin looking for your chance to show them how it\u2019s done.\nThen you get your opportunity, interview carefully for your open position, select the best candidate, and take your time getting to know their career ambitions. With a clear understanding of their goals, you arrange for training and foster key opportunities.\n\u201cYes! This is how it\u2019s supposed to be done,\u201d you think to yourself, as your new employees get the opportunities they\u2019ve always wanted. In the process, they also have a chance to build relationships with leaders two or three levels above you and begin going directly to them with questions.\nMeanwhile, you\u2019re thinking to yourself, \u201cI\u2019m the one who got you those opportunities. You need to come to me with your questions. It\u2019s the respectful thing to do!\u201d\nMaybe this whole leadership thing isn\u2019t quite what you thought it would be. \u201cThey\u2019re advancing, and I\u2019m stuck in this position as support staff to them now,\u201d you say to yourself, irritated with their clear lack of respect and appreciation for all you\u2019ve done to help.\nThis is exactly where Robin found herself after more than a decade of dealing with bad managers. As she reflected on the process she went through to help her first employee thrive, she was both proud and irritated.\nMore irritated than proud when she first started sharing about the experience, but by the end of our conversation she realized she was simply missing an important component of long-term success in leadership\u2014keep advancing your skills, relationships and knowledge.\nRather than continuing to waste her time and energy keeping her new employee tethered to her, Robin refocused her energy and time on stepping up to new challenges, advancing her own skills and building relationships. Meanwhile, she continued in her support role.\nThe ideas of leadership regained the excitement and allure it once held in her mind, and the results were worth every bit of effort.\nBy refocusing on her own growth, Robin wound up inspiring her employee and colleagues to step up and make a bit of progress for themselves. Rather than pushing for an increase in control and management of others, she became a go-to resource for support and advancement of others.\nBy allowing yourself to be inspired by the success of others, advancement becomes a fun game for everyone. As you think about the next three-six months, ask yourself, \u201cWhat skills, experiences, and relationships do I want to nurture?\u201d Then, begin immediately researching, signing up for, and/or scheduling time for your growth.\nIn the process, helping others along the way becomes a joyful and uplifting experience\u2014both for you and them.",

Because I\u2019m not gonna be in a room while you\u2019re playing your song and you\u2019re all excited.\u201d So they brought it in, and they stuck it on my desk, and they go \u201cOK, you\u2019re gonna listen to it?\u201d I\u2019m going, \u201cYeah, I\u2019ll listen to it.\u201d And it\u2019d let it sit there for like about a month, and people kept coming in, \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you? Why aren\u2019t listening to this? Why don\u2019t you \u2026\u201d And I said, \u201cBecause I can\u2019t hear it yet. Because I\u2019m not in any frame of mind to listen. I know you\u2019re trying to get me started on a record, but I gotta go to a frame of mind to get there.\u201d So finally I said, \u201cOK, let\u2019s listen.\u201d I heard it, I listened, and it really did kind of, get the little \u2026 It didn\u2019t start the dominoes falling over, just kind of, \u201cOK, let\u2019s set them up now.\u201d And then James came. Some other people would come before that, we won\u2019t get into all that, but then finally James Michael came on his own, and we sat there for a few hours and we talked about \u2018Did I Say That?\u2019 and that\u2019s when it really started started. Because he played me a little piece of it, and I went \u201cOooh. Oh yeah.\u201d Then I just kept going around to different people getting things, like I got Better Than Ezra.\nIt\u2019s not as if you haven\u2019t been busy since your last album \u2018Welcome To The Neighborhood\u2019 in 1995. 1:02\n\u2014I was doing film too. I was doing a movie. Well, I did six in a row. Literally, I did six back to back. And \u2018Fight Club\u2019 and \u2018Crazy in Alabama\u2019 crossed each other, it was were, luckily \u2026 I had one week left on \u2018Crazy in Alabama\u2019 when \u2018Fight Club\u2019 started, and we were both shooting in downtown L.A. Well, I was supposed to be on the \u2018Fight Club\u2019 set and I drove, and it was early in the morning and I drove and parked and went in my trailer at \u2018Crazy in Alabama\u2019 and the first guy came and he went \u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d I\u2019m going, \u201cWhat do you mean, what am I doing here?\u201d And I went \u201cOh, I\u2019m supposed to be on \u2018Fight Club\u2019\u201d So I went over to \u2018Fight Club\u2019. And then I went right to another one and I was \u2026 Three of \u2018em were in L.A., which was really, well, \u2018Fight Club\u2019 was in L.A., \u2018Wishcraft\u2019 was in L.A. and \u2018Crazy\u2019 ended in L.A., the last month was in L.A.. So that was good. Everything else was like, you know, in the high trees of the Amazon, it felt like.\nDid you go for a different production or overall sound this time? 2:15\n\u2014Steinman, like in \u2018Anything for Love,\u2019 for example he does the counter-melodies, [sings] \u2018I would do anything for love\u2019 but the counter-melody thing is the guitar and there\u2019s a string part doing it. So you don\u2019t really know. You don\u2019t really sit and go \u201cThat\u2019s a counter-melody.\u201d So, I said, \u201cWhat I wanna do to this whole thing,\u201d and I really wanted that latin rhythm thing. And I tried it on one thing, and we took it off eventually, and so I scrapped that idea. But what we did do was \u2026 Everything is counter-melody to everything else. Even within the songs, but also from song to song. And the ending of the first songs and the ending of the last song is counter-melodies to each other. It\u2019s running constantly. It\u2019s not just always vocals\u2014a lot of time it\u2019s vocals, but it\u2019s also guitars, strings, piano. Any any instrument that can play anything. I\u2019ve got counter-melodies going against myself, like on that crazy wacky song called \u2018Do It!\u2019 Which also, I said on this record, \u201cListen, we always do, everything is about real life and about real emotion and emotions that people feel,\u201d and everything is really melodramatic, I mean, it\u2019s like \u2026 But that\u2019s OK, because that\u2019s what we did and that was fine. I have no problem with that. But I said, \u201cYou know what? I want to just throw it off a little bit. I wanna do, like, three guys who are drunk in some pub and singing, you know, a song that makes no sense.\u201d So that\u2019s what \u2018Do It!\u2019 is. A guy from Nazareth named Billy Rankin wrote that, and I\u2019m sure it made sense to him. And that\u2019s fine, and I\u2019m gonna go tell him, but to me, and I flipped the verses around so now they really don\u2019t make any sense. \u2018Cause my image of that was guys sitting in a bar, so drunk, and there was some song on the radio. And you know how people get the lyrics all screwed up all the time? It\u2019s like, or that car commercial where they went \u2018ittybittymitty\u2019 or whatever that is, and they can\u2019t sing the lyrics, and there\u2019s three guys, another slice of life.\nSo once you were into the record, did you deliberately seek a change of pace on some songs? 0:40\n\u2014We got all the melodramatic stuff early on. And then I stopped and I said, \u201cOK, guys, I need that emotion. I need that thing, but I, I need it to be a little happier, a little simpler, a little less heavy handed on it.\u201d Just not everything, \u2018cause I wanna keep what I do, but I need to just, I just wanna back off a little bit. So \u2018Because of You\u2019 which is just like this little pop song, but the message is almost like a prayer. It\u2019s almost that kind of soft. It\u2019s like almost to yourself. As opposed to standing on the top of a mountain screaming. Which is what I do a lot. I stand on the top of a mountain and scream across to the other mountain, so that people hear me. [laughs]\nHow about the title track? 0:20\n\u2014\u2018Couldn\u2019t Have Said It Better\u2019 it\u2019s that kind of really emotional love song, but there\u2019s somebody there with you, unlike \u2018Paradise\u2019 or \u2018Dead Ringer\u2019 where they\u2019re really fighting, it\u2019s always fighting. Which is a whole other side of life. So I went, \u201cOK, let\u2019s do this, as opposed to what we did over here.\u201d It\u2019s got some flavors added to it, y\u2019know.\nDoes your acting inform your music, do you think? 0:34\n\u2014Of course it does, I mean, because, you know, I think the more you do\u2014like Ronnie Wood, he paints\u2014that\u2019s a whole another \u2026 your brain works another artistic thing. If you just constantly, constantly, constantly, you know, trying to write a song, or trying to do this, and trying to do that \u2026 that\u2019s why writers\u2019 blocks occur. I mean, that\u2019s why novelists have writers\u2019 blocks. You know, Stephen King goes and coaches Little League baseball. You know, he has these outlets to get \u2026 \u2018Cause coaching Little League baseball is definitely creative, \u2018cause I\u2019ve done it. So I have two other outlets.\nWhat\u2019s your approach on acting? 0:56\n\u2014I got a lot of offers to do films, without having to go and, you know, jump through hoops, and \u2026 But sometimes, you know, people want me to go jump through hoops. I don\u2019t mind that. I, don\u2019t, don\u2019t never ever mind reading, go in reading, because \u2026 First of all: they don\u2019t give it to me, they\u2019re wrong. Second of all, I still get to work the characters. \u2018Cause a lot of actors, you know, they take their readings, they pick it up, they go and they read, they work on it. But I use a different way. I work a lot of hours when I do that, \u2018cause I don\u2019t do that many. So I work a lot of hours, and I go to my coach and I really work the character. So to me it\u2019s like, you know, in that situation, go into a class and, and have, you know, get critiqued and you do the whole thing. So I don\u2019t just take it as some piece of paper and I\u2019m gonna go and read for this guy and then walk out and don\u2019t care, because that\u2019s just not me. If somebody sends me some pages to go in for some audition, I like, treat it like I\u2019m, you know, heading for Academy Award nomination.\nThat\u2019s similar to your all-out approach to performing on stage. 1:39\n\u2014You cannot go like I go on a stage and it not be real. You can\u2019t fake that. The other night, I wasn\u2019t panning on doing \u2018Two Outta Three\u2019 and I just snapped on \u2018Two Outta Three\u2019 and \u2026 I run on what the energy level is in the house. You know, just because there\u2019s a song written down that I\u2019m supposed to do doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m gonna do. I run on the energy of the building. It\u2019s not me on stage and them out there. It\u2019s like a big egg, and we\u2019re all inside this egg, and whatever that\u2019s egg\u2019s doing, that\u2019s where we\u2019re going. You know, it\u2019s like, those people who do the same thing every night, no matter if it works or not. They go out and give the same speech, and cry in the same place and they say the same words, and they, you know, hop in the same place. I mean, I\u2019ve seen bands, it\u2019s hysterical \u2026 I\u2019ve done, like, festivals with bands and have done like six shows with them, or something. I don\u2019t know how they do it, but they hop in the place, they do the same pose in the same place. It\u2019s like they got little footprints on their stage. [laughs] I sit up there and it cracks me up. It really does. It looks like they got little colored, like you\u2019re doing a film and they put marks down for you to step, you know, but they got little colored feet and they go, \u201cOK, you know, we\u2019re gonna do this song and you\u2019re gonna stand here and you got your left foot in front of your right foot and you beat the tambourine. And now you take four steps to the mike, you turn left, you look at the guitar player.\u201d And people said to me they\u2019ve been doing that for years and years and years. And I said, \u201cI guess that\u2019s why I don\u2019t need the footprints down there.\u201d\nSo you can over-think these things. 0:48\n\u2014I hate thinking. I don\u2019t like thinking. The minute you, the minute you think\u2014it\u2019s like, I heard, I hear interviews and things like that and I think the first person I ever heard say that was Aretha. They said to her, \u201cHow do you do what you?\u201d She goes, \u201cWell, I don\u2019t know.\u201d They go, \u201cWell, how does it come out?\u201d And she goes, \u201cWell, the one thing I don\u2019t do is think about it. It just comes.\u201d Then I went, \u201cThat\u2019s right!\u201d But sometimes you know that, but it takes somebody to like, say it, to verbalize it, for you actually, you go \u2026 to comprehend, \u201cOh, yeah.\u201d And there\u2019s things, like, that I\u2019ve read that Marlon Brando has said, and I said, \u201cOh, that\u2019s how you verbalize that.\u201d Or, you know, [unintelligible, probably some actress\u2019 name] because I read actors all the time. I don\u2019t read too many musicians. \u2018Cause musicians tend to not give me any information.\nLet\u2019s talk about video\u2019s, especially the new one for \u2018Did I Say That?\u2019 1:24\n\u2014Even in videos, when you go to the words \u2018Did I say that?\u2019 you can picture the video. But if you listen to it enough you\u2019ll get out of it. I never try to leave you that much, even on \u2018Anything for Love\u2019, that was a heavy visual thing, it\u2019s like a big one, way back in the eighties, was Billy Joel\u2019s \u2018Pressure\u2019 and he was floating through the floor and everything. But still today, when that song comes on you know maybe once in a while I flash to a piece of the video, like the pimp falling through the floor, but the rest of the time it\u2019s like I\u2019m don\u2019t think about Billy Joel. I\u2019m going, \u201cYeah, that\u2019s how I feel.\u201d You know, or the other that\u2019s pretty visual, \u2018Sledgehammer,\u2019 that pretty much locks you in on that. But even still, you can leave that. But when first hear it, you automatically come to him either coming down the shoot or something, but then you get off. And I believe most people are intelligent. People are very intelligent. They\u2019re very perceptible, subconsciously. And I think, you know, any artist that ever says that an audience is, like, stupid or they believe that \u2026 they\u2019re so wrong. I mean, that\u2019s \u2026 I tell any artist, you know, don\u2019t believe that an audience doesn\u2019t know what the hell is going on. I say they may not be able to verbalize it when they walk out of a building, but subconsciously, they got it, baby. They got it.\nYou mentioned your daughter, Pearl. 0:14\n\u2014She\u2019s been singing with us for a long time. She\u2019s been singing with us for almost ten years. When she was in high school, and we would go out in summers, she\u2019d come out and sit on stage and sing backgrounds with us. So it\u2019s been almost ten years.\nTell me about your producer on the new record. 0:59\n\u2014Oh, well we can talk about Peter Mokran till some time, you know, next week. I don\u2019t wanna \u2026 You know, I\u2019m not saying anything bad about Steinman, but doing vocals with Steinman is like being tortured by some, you know [unintelligible, sounds like what an terrorist organization would be called] or something, you know. I\u2019m telling you, I love Jimmy, but Jimmy is just not verbal. You know Jimmy\u2019s lines to me in a vocal would be, \u201cMeat, I\u2019ve heard you do that better.\u201d That helps. OK. You know, it\u2019s like a director going saying to you in a scene, \u201cLet\u2019s do that again, you did it better before.\u201d Well, how did I do it better, because, it\u2019s like I\u2019m supposed to remember what I just did? I mean, when I\u2019m singing, I black out. I leave. When I\u2019m doing film, I don\u2019t know what the hell just happened when we finished. You know, you want a director to come over and say, \u201cOK, now, this\u2014when you did this \u2026\u201d blahblahablah, you know? Jimmy goes, \u201cI\u2019ve heard you do that better.\u201d OK, Jimmy, give me a clue.\nA couple more songs I want you to ask about: \u2018You\u2019re Right, I Was Wrong.\u2019 0:14\n\u2014Oh, yeah, well that\u2019s Diane Warren. \u2018You\u2019re Right, I Was Wrong.\u2019 I\u2019m convinced she wrote for Travis Tritt or Vince Gill or somebody. And she just just threw it at us and I went, \u201cThis song\u2019s amazing.\u201d And so \u2026 she heard that, she was flipped. She couldn\u2019t believe that it turned out like that.\nAnd your version of Dylan\u2019s \u2018Forever Young\u2019. 1:43\n\u2014That was just done. That was the really last minute. I went to a golf tournament. And \u2018Forever Young\u2019. Somewhere I heard it, I\u2019ll show you my computer, I\u2019ve written it down in my little notes somewhere: \u2018Forever Young\u2019. Songs to do: \u2018Forever Young\u2019. And I don\u2019t remember hearing it, and I don\u2019t remember why I wrote it down. And it shocked the hell out of me when I saw it there. It was the day we were getting the tracks. I came in on \u2018Forever Young\u2019 and I said I wanna do \u2018Forever Young\u2019 and they said \u2018The Dylan thing\u2019 and I stopped at a bookstore, one of those giant bookstores that now sells CDs, and I got \u2018Forever Young\u2019 and I took it in. And he goes, \u201cWell, OK,\u201d so we played it. And he\u2019s looking at me and going, \u201cOK.\u201d So I think they thought this wasn\u2019t going to work, I mean, no way. When I did the vocal and Peter is like flipping out at this vocal. He\u2019s going, \u201cNow I know why you had to do this song.\u201d And he kept pushing the button, going, \u201cMeat, it\u2019s unbelievable! Meat, it\u2019s unbelievable!\u201d And he never did that. He only did that on like two or three songs. \u2018cause Peter normally, I\u2019d say \u201cHow we\u2019re doing?\u201d He goes, \u201cWe\u2019re doing great Meat?\u201d I\u2019d say, \u201cHow we\u2019re doing?\u201d \u201cMeat, we\u2019re doing great.\u201d I\u2019d say, \u201cOK. Peter, how we\u2019re doing?\u201d \u2018Cause I get so paranoid. \u2018Cause I don\u2019t hear it. \u2018Cause I\u2019m lost in it. And I did every vocal so fast with him. And that was it. It was like no torture. I mean, it is torture. For me, to go in a studio is absolutely torture. It\u2019s like having open heart surgery without anesthesia. It\u2019s the most painful thing for me in the world. And then to do it with Jimmy. \u2018Cause we suffer for hours. So imagine having open heart surgery for twenty hours without anesthesia as opposed to three. You know, it\u2019s much easier.\nDo you think Peter Mokran and Jim Steinman will both work on your next record? 0:52\n\u2014What I\u2019m trying to is get Jimmy and Peter to do, \u2018cause we\u2019re gonna do \u2018Bat III\u2019, get Jimmy and Peter next January, to try to sit down, see if we got the song ready enough. Get Peter and Jim then to go through on Pro-Tools and let\u2019s get the three us to work it out, then I\u2019ll go away and tour some more and let them do the tracks, \u2018cause it\u2019ll be fine \u2018cause you can change anything. And then come back and see if I can do the vocals with Peter. And the Peter and Jimmy, I mean, Jimmy can be there, but just, Jimmy sit over there, and talk to Peter, and let Peter talk to me. And then let them, let, you know, they\u2019ll mix and I\u2019ll, \u2018cause I never, I never sit with the mixes. \u2018Cause I wanna be away from \u2019em. I have mixes after they got their first mix, they they give them to me and I go \u201cOK, they\u2019re real close, but blahblahblahblahblah.\u201d \u2018Cause I know I hate being in the room when they mix, \u2018cause they you don\u2019t have any perspective.\nYou\u2019re soon to start touring the new album, aren\u2019t you? 0:16\n\u2014We\u2019re going to start in Mexico City, actually. June sixth and seventh. And then we\u2019ll tour America and then we come into Germany, then we\u2014usually we go UK, Germany, this year it\u2019s backwards, we\u2019re going Germany, UK. Then we\u2019re gonna go, do Australia, and we\u2019ll come back and see where we go from there.\nAny closing words about this new album? 0:06\n\u2014We did work real hard, Peter worked real hard on this record. And, and the record is really, really great, so it\u2019s what it is.\nInterview and post-production by Paul Sexton, March 2003\nUniversal / Polydor\nMEATINTCD1",

In this regard, he has sought Pakistan\u2019s support and facilitation,\u201d\nFaisal said that President Trump in his letter also acknowledged that the war had cost both the U.S. and Pakistan. The American leader went on to emphasize that the two countries \u201cshould explore opportunities to work together and renew partnership,\u201d the spokesman added.\n\u201cSince Pakistan has always advocated a political settlement to end war in Afghanistan, the U.S. decision is welcomed. Pakistan reiterates its commitment to play a facilitation role in good faith. Peace and stability in Afghanistan remains a shared responsibility,\u201d Faisal concluded.\nAn American Embassy spokesman in Islamabad when contacted for a confirmation declined to comment.\nThe rare contact between the two countries at the highest level comes as a Pakistan\u2019s traditionally tumultuous relationship with the United States has deteriorated over allegations the Taliban continues to use sanctuaries on Pakistani soil for attacks inside Afghanistan.\nPresident Trump reiterated those allegations in a television interview and subsequent tweets, justifying his suspension of military assistance to Pakistan. The allegations prompted Khan to also take to Twitter and denounce the U.S. president for questioning Pakistan\u2019s counterterrorism efforts. The Pakistani leader insisted his country was being made \u201ca scapegoat\u201d for U.S. military \u201cfailures\u201d in Afghanistan.\nThe 17-year Afghan war has intensified in recent months, with the Taliban inflicting heavy casualties on U.S.-backed Afghans security forces and bringing more territory under insurgent control.

        "raw_content": "So today\u2019s #thelateness, LinkedIn. When I was doing my graduate degree, my social media teacher had taught us about LinkedIn, among the other platforms. She did encourage us to at least sign up for each platform and play around to see if it would be a good fit for our business.\nHonestly, I didn\u2019t see LinkedIn being a benefit for my business so I didn\u2019t bother. I saw it more corporate than freelance and design\u2014shows what I know, right? I\u2019d found that Instagram and Pinterest fit my business mold better so I stuck with them, and had kept Twitter and Facebook for strictly personal usage.\nLately I\u2019ve been back and forth about creating a Facebook fanpage, because I\u2019ve been getting some weird friend requests. I can only surmise that they\u2019re people who follow the blog and found me on there. I think that once I get a bigger platform, then I\u2019ll revisit the idea.\nAs some of you know, I\u2019ve been job hunting in Los Angeles for the better part of 3 years (at least) because I\u2019d like to have a job there before I physically move there. And I\u2019m here to tell you folks\u2014it is WAY fucking hard to job hunt in a city when you\u2019re not physically there. I don\u2019t care what the cover letter templates and all say\u2014a good majority of places will not even give you a phone call for an interview if you\u2019re not physically there.\nAnd say you use a friend\u2019s or a relative\u2019s address? Well, then you\u2019re in another pickle. I actually did that once, about 3 years ago. I\u2019d interviewed for an office job with Hallmark on a Wednesday. Not only did I get an email response within two hours, but they wanted to see me for an interview the next day!\n[insert slight panic here]\nSo, I didn\u2019t panic too much\u2014I was really excited! Here I\u2019d been asking for a shot and here it was! By the grace of God I\u2019d just gotten in my tax refund check and I was able to score a good Airbnb, because this was Valentine\u2019s weekend and all the hotels were gonna be a bitch to book. The stars had aligned!\nAfter letting them know that I was available that Friday, everything was confirmed. I\u2019d lucked out further and gotten a plane ticket to LA at a good price and I flew out the next day.\nThe interview was a breeze honestly. The woman I\u2019d met with was very nice, but I knew halfway through the interview that she wasn\u2019t going to offer me the job. First, I had a Master degree and the job was only paying $10/hr.\nSide note\u2014I really hate when jobs don\u2019t post the compensation, or at least a range, on the job listing. Then I won\u2019t waste my time.\nBut the longer we\u2019d talked, the more of my creative and long-term plans she\u2019d learnt. So she talked with me less about the job and more about how television development worked. And it was a great meeting, just not exactly what I\u2019d hoped for.\nSo I thanked her, I\u2019d left and met up with a friend and we went and saw KINGSMAN on opening night. And that\u2019s also when I\u2019d learnt about the glory of reserved seating in theatres.\nBut back to present day, I recently had a meeting at MICA\u2019s Career Development Center because I\u2019d not been having any luck. The director asked me questions, looked over my resume and cover letter and got a better sense of what I was looking for. First thing she recommended was that I stop job hunting. She told me that only 5% of people who apply through job postings actually get the job.\nMan that sounded grim. I tried searching for the stats on that but I only found this article written back in 2016 saying that it was 2%. The point it, more jobs are awarded through networking, and for the life of me, I can\u2019t believe I\u2019d forgotten that.\nThe next thing she recommended was for me to join LinkedIn, so I did. And because I went to MICA, there are LOADS of alumni who live or work in LA. And now, I have plenty of people to reach out to, to actually meet and have a conversation with.\nSo I\u2019m going to give it a try and see what roads it leads me down.\nOh quick update: I\u2019m done my first draft of a comic manuscript! First one I\u2019ve ever written, so yay me, and now it\u2019s gotta get cleaned up. It needs notes and then I can send it to my publisher when she\u2019s ready. This is so exciting!\nThis is my last month of freedom until my job starts back up again, so I\u2019m gonna live it up best I can.\nThis entry was posted in Writing and tagged #thelateness, adventures in writing, Path to Hollywood, social media by murjanian.

        "raw_content": "Regulating Freedom of Expression on Campus\nFree Speech on Campus. By Sigal Ben-Porath. Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2017. 136 pp. $19.95 (cloth).\nFree Speech on Campus. By Erwin Chemerinsky and Howard Gillman. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 2017. 216 pp. $26.00 (cloth).\nSafe Spaces, Brave Spaces: Diversity and Free Expression in Education. By John Palfrey. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2017. 192 pp. $19.95 (cloth).\nFor several years now, the news has been saturated with coverage of protests against invited speakers, debates over the wisdom of \"safe spaces\" and \"trigger warnings\" in the classroom, demands that universities punish those who make offensive comments, and calls to rename university buildings. No segment of the ideological spectrum has been silent. Mockery of millennial student \"snow-flakes\" is routine in right-wing media, and right-wing personalities like Milo Yiannopoulos and Ben Shapiro have seemed to relish the outrage generated by their mere appearance on campuses. Some more liberal writers like Jonathan Chait have also worried that militant political correctness is compromising intellectual inquiry.1 Others, however, have called these concerns misdirected.2\nThree new books provide comprehensive socio-legal analysis of recent campus speech controversies. The books share the general premise that the treatment of freedom of expression in educational institutions has special significance in a democratic society, and they each provide useful guidelines for how university communities can think through the conflicts named above. In fact, the books display a striking level of consensus regarding the dynamics of these conflicts. At the same time, each author describes the priorities of educational institutions in somewhat different terms.\nErwin Chemerinsky and Howard Gillman contend that \"however important free speech principles are in society as a whole, they require even stronger protections in academic settings\" (19). They argue that academic institutions must be places where all ideas can and should be debated (51). As a result, [End Page 315] their \"central thesis is that all ideas and views should be able to be expressed on college campuses, no matter how offensive or how uncomfortable they make people feel\" (19).\nJohn Palfrey and Sigal Ben-Porath likewise see academic environments as critical fora for the exchange of the widest range of possible ideas, but they are not true microcosms of society. As Ben-Porath reminds us, their \"aims . . . go well beyond the general goals of a democratic republic and it makes sense for them to be organized and managed based on additional principles\" (10). Her \"inclusive freedom\" framework for campus speech is thus a fundamental attempt to balance \"the necessity of protecting free speech\" while \"making sure that all are included in the ensuing conversation\" (12). Palfrey's framework is more literally described in terms of diversity concerns, but the conceptual contention is similar. He draws attention to the complementary, rather than contradictory, goals of diversity and free speech, calling diversity \"an essential element of freedom of expression\" (62).\nOverall, the books share the broad goal of defending the ideals of free speech in the campus context while working to reconcile them with the mandate to create more inclusive and equitable campuses. Such a fundamental goal is laudable. At the same time, they reaffirm the soundness of the liberal free speech tradition\u2014a tradition that critics have long contended benefits some speakers at the expense of others. Such defenses of the status quo can feel unduly sanguine in today's fraught political climate. Perhaps the times call for more imaginative solutions when alt-right (or \"alt-lite\") figures can routinely target campuses for provocations that sometimes turn violent,3 yet faculty (especially those with little job security) are harassed or pressured to resign for otherwise protected speech.4\nThough it likely was not their choice, Chemerinsky and Gillman's book cover depicts a brick wall on which the title is (rather neatly) spray-painted. This image can be read as a kind of metaphor for how these books address the contemporary debate about campus speech regulation. For all of their insight into recent conflicts, perhaps the books are still operating as if the controversy today is over graffiti on a wall. A critical American studies scholar could thus...",

        "raw_content": "Written by Janelle Cowo on September 22, 2015\nIf there is one thing Belize isn\u2019t lacking in its water bodies. Not only are we bordered by the Caribbean Sea to the east, we also have 35 major rivers flowing through our lands. This is not mentioning the hundreds \u2013 even thousands \u2013 of streams, lagoons, creeks, ponds, swamps and little pools that form during the rainy season! Yup, Belize is truly blessed with water!\nAmong all those 35 five rivers, two are mentioned in our National Anthem, the Rio Hondo and the Sarstoon. These rivers acts as the northern and southern most bodies of water in the country and also act as borders between Mexico to the north and Guatemala to the south.\nSelfies by the river!\nWhile trafficking the Sarstoon River is a bit complicated due to the ongoing territorial dispute with Guatemala, traveling the Rio Hondo is the complete opposite. Belize and Mexico are pretty good neighbors and the Rio Hondo is a gateway between the two countries.\nComing from the Orange Walk District, I can\u2019t even count how many time I have crossed the Rio Hondo into Mexican territory, not only through the Santa Elena Border, but through the small villages that dot the river bank.\nThe Rio Hondo is approximately 93 miles long and flows through most of Orange Walk and Corozal District discharging its waters into the Chetumal Bay on the Caribbean Sea. In two separate locations, you can find both a Belizean and Mexican village in either side of the bank with only the river separating them.\nFrom Blue Creek Village in the Belizean side, you can cross over to La Union on the Mexican Side or cross from Santa Cruz Village in Belize to Botes in Mexico. All it takes is a 5 minutes canoe ride!\nAnd this is Botes!\nOf course, be sure to have some form of identification, after all you are crossing an international border and there are authorities monitoring the activity. But besides that, the cross is hassle free and only cost a $1 per way!\nTopics covered in this article: Blue Creek, Botes, La Union, Mexico, Rio Hondo, Santa Cruz\nAbout the Author: Janelle Cowo\nThe youngest member of the My Beautiful Belize family, Janelle loves traveling and experiencing new cultures both within and across the border of Belize.

Serotonin is also involved in mental and behavioral disorders, including depression.\nPeptides act like neurotransmitter or like hormones. One important peptide, corticotrophin-release factor (CRF), is secreted by the hypothalamus, stimulates the pituitary, and leads to production of Cortisol by the adrenal glands. Another important group is the endorphins the body\u2019s natural painkillers.\nWhy can\u2019t the physical processes of the nervous system tell us everything we want to know about behavior?\nJust as biological factors affect human behavior, psychological and environmental forces (behavioral factors), in reciprocal fashion, affect biology.\nThe Brain-Behavior Link: Definitions\nA neurotransmitter involved in motor activity and numerous CNS functions\nAn abundant neurotransmitter known to play a primary role in learning and memory.\nNore-pine-phrine\nA neurotransmitter involved in arousal and depression.\nAn abundant neurotransmitter involved in goal-related motor behaviors and various mental and behavioral disorders including schizophrenia.\nA neurotransmitter involved in various mental and behavioral disorders, including depression.\nEssential biochemicals that may function like neurotransmitters or hormones.\nCorticotrophin-release factor (CRF)\nA neuropeptide secreted by the hypothalamus.\nThe hormone secreted by the adrenal gland during emotional upset of in response to pain.\nNeuropeptide that serve as natural painkillers.\nHow Neuroscientist Study the Brain and Mind\nHow does brain imaging work and what does it tell us?\nIn mapping the brain and studying its structures and functions, researchers once had to rely on changes in behavior that were attributable to brain damage. They later began studying brain lesions in laboratory animals and using electrical brain stimulation (EBS) in humans.\nComputerized tomography (CT) and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are methods of studying brain structures but not brain functioning.\nPositron emission tomography (PET) and Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are methods of studying brain structures and pathways, as well as what they do, in an ongoing manner.\nHow do neuroscientists measure electrical changes and what do they tell us?\nElectroencephalography (EEG) is a method of measuring overall brain electrical activity. Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) allows measurement of precise event-related potentials (ERPs).\nHow Neuroscientist Study the Brain and Mind: Definitions\nMRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) Scan\nRadiology uses X rays and other forms of radiant energy to both diagnose and treat diseases. This magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of a normal adult head shows the brain, airways, and soft tissues of the face. The large cerebral cortex, appearing in yellow and green, forms the bulk of the brain tissue; the circular cerebellum, center left, in red, and the elongated brainstem, center, in red, are also prominently visible.\nA structural brain imaging method that uses X-rays to produce two-dimensional images.\nA structural brain imaging method that uses the magnetic properties of brain tissue to produce two or three dimensional images.\nA functional brain imagining method that uses the brain\u2019s metabolism of substances containing radioactive isotopes to produce ongoing brain images.\nA functional brain imaging method that uses the brain\u2019s natural metabolism of oxygen to produce ongoing brain images.\nA method of measuring overall brain electrical activity using electrodes placed on the scalp.\nQuantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG)\nA method of assessing brain activity that uses a large array of electrodes in a skull cap to measure and localize minute electrical reactions to areas of the brain.\nHow the Brain Governs Behavior\nHow do the neurons work and what do they do?\nThe brain governs all physical and psychological functions through its connection with other parts of the body.\nThe brain contains many billions of neurons, or neural cells; each neuron receives messages, processes them, and transmits them to thousands of other neurons throughout the body.Some neurons act as glands and transmit into the bloodstream various hormones, which affect the bodily functioning in areas distant from the brain. The brain also contains even more billions of glia, which performs functions such as regulating the biochemical environment of the brain, helping sustain neurons, modulating neural transmissions, and helping guide early brain development and maturation. Each neuron in the nervous system is a fiberlike cell with receivers call dendrites at one end and senders call terminal braches at the other. Stimulation of the neurons at its dendrites\u2014or receptor sites on its cell body\u2014sets off an electrical impulse that travels the length of the axon to the terminal branches. There the stage is set for stimulation or inhibition of other neurons, as well as muscles or glands. Other important structures include the nucleus, myelin sheath, and nodes.\nA neuron ordinarily fires in accord with the all-or-none principle. The key to the transmissions of nervous messages is the synapse, a junction where the sender of one neuron is separated by only a microscopic distance from the receiver of another neuron. When the neuron fires, it releases neurotransmitters, which flow across the synaptic cleft and act on receiving neurons.\nWhat constitutes the central nervous system?\nThe central nervous system (CNS) is made up of the brain and the spinal cord. The neurons of CNS affect functions and behavior throughout the rest of the body through the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Afferent Neurons carry information from the sense organs to the brain; efferent neurons carry messages from the brain to the glands and muscles; and interneurons are the intermediaries between other neurons in the CNS.\nWhy do psychologist and other scientist place so much emphasis on understanding the functions of the brain\u2019s outer surface?\nThe topmost and largest area of the brain is the cerebrum, which is covered by the cerebral cortex; each is divided down the middle into a left hemisphere and a right hemisphere.\nThe cerebral cortex, which is larger in relation to body size in human beings that in any other species, is the part of the brain primarily responsible for higher processes such as thinking, remembering, and planning. When damaged, it sometimes displays remarkable plasticity.\nHow the Brain Governs Behavior: Neuron Definitions\nThe Neural cell; the basic unit of the nervous system\nThe primary \u201creceiving\u201d parts of a neuron.\nReceptors Sites\nSpots on the cell body of a neuron that, like the dendrites, can be stimulated by other neurons.\nThe part of a neuron that converts oxygen, sugars and other nutrients into energy\nThe core of the cell body of a neuron or other cell, containing the genes.\nThe fibrous body of a neuron that carries the neural impulse to the terminal branches.\nA whitish coating of fatty protective tissue that \u201cinsulates\u201d the axons of neurons.\nConstrictions of the myelin sheath of an axon that act as booster stations for neural impulses.\nThe parts of a neuron that send messages to other neurons or to muscles or glands.\nThe connecting point where a terminal branch of one neuron is only a microscopic distance from a dendrite or receptor site of another neuron.\nBiochemicals released at neuron synapses that aid or inhibit neural transmission.\nA biochemical that typically is released into the bloodstream to perform its function at locations distance form the brain, but that can also effect brain functioning itself.\nCells that perform a wide array of functions such as regulating the biochemical environment of the brain, helping sustain neurons, modulating neural transmissions, and aiding in the repair of neurons in case of injury.

        "raw_content": "Home | Sendoffs | Celebrity Deaths | A Career and a Life Ended Too Soon\nA Career and a Life Ended Too Soon\nby scottleydon\nUnfortunately, Amy was unable to help herself overcome her addictions.\nNeo-soul singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse,born 14 September 1983 and found dead in her London home on Saturday, aged 27, was probably best known for the endless tabloid reports documenting her drug and alcohol addictions, mental health issues and the self-destructive behavior that accompanied them. But anyone who has paid attention to her music beyond the cheeky refrain of \u201cno, no, no\u201d\u2018s in Rehab (her only successful single in North America) knows that the world hasn\u2019t just lost some celebrity train-wreck, but rather an uncommonly clever songwriter and occasionally electric live performer whose expressive contralto voice was a one-of-a-kind instrument.\nAmy\u2019s brief career took off in 2003 with the release of her debut studio album Frank, a playful, witty, jazz-inflected pop album that earned the young crooner triple-platinum status in the UK and a number of prestigious accolades for song writing (including an Ivor Novello award for the album-opener Stronger than Me.) A quick flip through YouTube clips of her performances from around the time of Frank\u2019s release show a healthy-looking, spirited teenager whose vocal chords \u2013 relatively unmarred by the rough-and-tumble lifestyle she was about to adopt \u2013 reverberated with a soulfulness and control surprising for her young age.\nAnd then came Back to Black. Allegedly written and recorded during a period of sobriety following a split with her troubled on-again off-again beau Blake Fielder-Civil, Amy\u2019s second LP was an unqualified artistic triumph and massive global success. It racked up five Grammys (including the awards for Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year) and hundreds of millions of dollars in record sales around the world. The eleven songs on the album are frank, autobiographical explorations of the artist\u2019s relationship with men, drinking, drugs, and depression, painfully honest tunes buoyed by a rich, fully-formed sound, breezily referencing decades of soul music, R&B, rock & roll, funk and jazz. She flirts with positivity on tracks like Rehab and You Know I\u2019m No Good but she\u2019s most affecting when singing torch songs about love lost and the hope she has for her tears to dry (an image she reverts to again and again in her lyrics.) Unlike her forebears in the brassy-voiced-female-balladeers-with-tragic-private-lives club (counting Dusty Springfield, Judy Garland, etc., as members), Amy\u2019s music never shied away from the darkest parts of her emotional life. In the middle of the title track off the album, when the tempo slows and her voice drops a register, wavering as she repeats \u201cblack, black, black\u201d a few more times than expected, the depth of her despair is totally \u2013 beautifully \u2013 conveyed.\nSadly, Amy\u2019s musical output basically came to a halt after Back to Black (except for a joyous cover of The Zutons\u2019 Valerie) and a third album probably won\u2019t see the light of day. Since the news of her death on July 23, 2011, fans and music industry professionals have flooded the internet with messages of love, mourning and appreciation for having been witness to such a talent. A mass of handwritten notes, flowers, candles, beer bottles and cigarettes left by adoring fans sits outside her Camden home. A private funeral for friends and family took place three days after her death, after which her body was cremated.\nWithin hours of her passing, Back to Black shot to the top of digital album sales charts in nearly every country in the world and 45,000 hard copies of her two CDs were sold in the U.S. alone over the weekend (an astonishing number considering most music stores don\u2019t tend to carry much stock of 5-year-old albums.) Although the media was more concerned with her abusive relationships, drunken jaunts around London, and increasingly haggard appearance over the years, it seems the public has chosen to mourn her for the reason she mattered in the first place. Amy will be remembered for generations, romanticized like Jimi and Janis and Kurt, partly because of the shared tragedy of their too-soon deaths, but mostly because there\u2019s no denying the gift of a voice like that.\nStory by Scott Leydon, a student at McGill University studying English Literature.\nTags: 27 club, Amy Winehouse, guest articles, music, Rehab\nSome Clubs are Killing for Members\nCheers to Janis Joplin\nThis Is a Tribute",

        "title": "What Hackers Want With Hello Kitty Accounts | National Cyber Security | Hacker News",
        "raw_content": "What Hackers Want With Hello Kitty Accounts\nIn December 2015, V-Tech acknowledged that data thieves had compromised 11.2 million accounts from its learning software app store, Learning Lodge. More than half the accounts belonged to kids. That same month a security researcher alerted Sanrio Digital, owner of Hello Kitty,that its 3.3 million Hello Kitty fan site accounts had been vulnerable for almost a month, although the company says no data was stolen. This September, a hacker contacted Ars Technica and hacker-detection site Have I Been Pwned? with the stolen credentials of 2.2 million accounts from i-Dressup, a fashion-oriented online social hangout, along with a friendly reminder that the other 3.3 million accounts were there for the taking.\nMajor hacks that target credit card numbers, passwords, or other personal info of adults are so commonplace now that people know the routine. Change your password. Get a new credit card. But when hackers go after the accounts of kids, it gives one pause. What would hackers want with a 10-year-old\u2019s Hello Kitty account?\n\u201cAny account is worth something, and as they age they can be worth more.\u201d So says Ori Eisen, CEO of Trusona Cybersecurity as we rattle off a list of recent cyber attacks on children. \u201cWhile most consumers are concerned about getting their credit card data stolen, what\u2019s far more dangerous is hackers reaching into your social media to gather more personal and less easily changed information\u2014photos, addresses, etc.\u201d\nWho has personal information floating around mostly unguarded? Children. Their games, electronic toys, and social media accounts are especially vulnerable, and kids are careless with their personal details. \u201cTeens are a prime target simply because as soon as they have an email address of their own, they tend to be very lax with where they use it,\u201d says Eisen, who prior to founding Trusona was director of fraud prevention at both American Express and VeriSign.\nFrom a malicious hacker\u2019s point of view, the problem is that there\u2019s not much immediate use for a kid\u2019s information. You can\u2019t take out a loan with it, you can\u2019t open a credit card with it, you can\u2019t break open a bank account. As a result, attackers have started taking the long view. If they steal information when it\u2019s easy\u2014when victims are seven, ten, fifteen years old\u2014they can sit on that personal data until the victim is 18, when those social security numbers, birth dates, past addresses, email addresses, legal names, and photographs shoot up in value. \u201cAs they near college age and start working,\u201d says Eisen, \u201cthe personal identifiable information matures to a point of being useful as the credit bureaus begin to establish a credit file on that particular person.\u201d\nThe other advantage to sitting on hacked data is that people eventually let their guard down. Most of the time, Eisen says, the info isn\u2019t sold immediately because, if a breach is made public, the hacked company is expected to double down on monitoring for the stolen data to surface. Once that period passes, the attacker has more leeway to sell the data.\n\u201cThe specific marketplaces on the Dark Web (part of the internet hidden from common search engines like Google) are always in flux, given that authorities are constantly on the lookout and shut them down whenever possible,\u201d Eisen says. \u201cHowever, since the start of the Tor browser and the advent of the Silk Road, the Dark Web has been like a Medusa character. Whenever one marketplace falls, it is replaced by others.\u201d\nIt\u2019s usually word of mouth or a specialized Dark Web search engine that finds them. Listings for stolen personal information look like Craigslist posts. According to Eisen, most note where the data comes from, and many mention how the information\u2019s value will increase in the coming years. \u201cData stolen from children\u2019s programs is absolutely infiltrating the many marketplaces that sell personal data of all kinds,\u201d Eisen says.\n\u201cDATA STOLEN FROM CHILDREN\u2019S PROGRAMS IS ABSOLUTELY INFILTRATING THE MANY MARKETPLACES THAT SELL PERSONAL DATA OF ALL KINDS.\u201d\nHowever, data isn\u2019t always sold. Sometimes the easiest or most lucrative route is to ransom it back to the company it was stolen from, as companies will pay to keep news of the hacks out of the headlines. Kids\u2019 programs are especially vulnerable, according to Eisen, because they make the log-in process easy for children without regard for making it more secure. \u201cThe key reason online security is so weak is that nearly every company trusts user name/password combinations to protect user information,\u201d he says, \u201cdespite seeing breach after breach releasing static passwords that fraudsters can use many times over.\u201d\nHow can we do better? The password rules for kids are the same as they are for adults. Using the same username and password over and over again lets a hacker run amok with any account sharing that password. It\u2019s like handing over a master key. But maintaining a set of unique, complicated passwords is a chore even most adults won\u2019t deal with.\nThe more secure alternative is dynamic log-in authentication, which syncs the user\u2019s device with the website. The website\u2019s log-in process randomly generates a sequence of bytes every few moments and sends it over as a \u201cquestion,\u201d and the device, which had previously been given the formula to figure it out, sends back the correct \u201canswer.\u201d Because they\u2019re both in sync, the correct answers are always in time with the questions. Log-in credentials are used once and immediately become stale, unlike a user name/password. It\u2019s more complicated to design, but Eisen says it\u2019s overdue to become the new standard.\n\u201cThe sheer number and magnitude of password breaches have caused a shift in mindset,\u201d he says. \u201cThe \u2018No Passwords\u2019 revolution has begun.\u201d\nSource:http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/security/a24256/what-hackers-want-with-hello-kitty-accounts/",

        "raw_content": "Development of P-321 for Chronic Dry Eye\nDry eye is one of the most frequently diagnosed diseases of the eye, affecting more than 5 million people in the United States. The condition can cause redness, irritation and vision problems. Only a few treatments currently exist for the condition, and they only provide temporary or partial relief. The epithelial sodium channel is a protein found on the surface of many tissues in the body, including the eye. This protein controls hydration by controlling the levels of salt and water absorbed by the surface of the eye. The investigators have developed a drug that inhibits the action of the epithelial sodium channel, preventing salt and water from being absorbed and keeping the eye surface hydrated. This project\u2019s aim is to further develop this drug to prepare it for testing in human clinical trials.\nDry eye is a multi-factorial disease, resulting from a common etiology of insufficient tear film causing ocular surface damage and symptoms of ocular discomfort. The few current therapies available, which include immunosuppressive agents and over-the-counter tear replacements, are not sufficiently efficacious for many users or only provide transient relief from dry eye symptoms. Therefore, the development of novel agents to treat dry eye would be of tremendous benefit.\nThe volume of tear film on the ocular surface represents a balance between tear fluid output versus fluid loss via drainage, evaporation or epithelial absorption. Similar to other epithelial tissues, the epithelium of the conjunctiva and cornea are capable of regulating the hydration status of the mucosal surface through active salt and water transport. The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) regulates sodium and water absorption in numerous tissues, including the eye. The inhibition of ENaC in the eye is predicted to preserve lacrimal secretions and maintain hydration on the ocular surface.\nParion Sciences has developed a novel series of compounds that specifically and potently inhibit ENaC, which are predicted to be good candidate molecules for clinical development for the treatment of dry eye. In a series of proof-of-concept studies, Parion\u2019s lead compound, P-321, produced a concentration-dependent increase in tear output that persists with a long duration of action in normal mice and rats. Furthermore, P-321 significantly increases tear output and improves corneal staining in dry eye models. Taken together, these data suggest that ENaC inhibitors are excellent candidates for clinical development.\nParion Sciences, Durham, North Carolina\nKarl Donn, Ph.D.\nKeratoconjunctivitis sicca, or chronic dry eye disease, is one of the most frequently diagnosed ocular diseases, resulting in painful irritation, inflammation on the ocular surface and impaired vision. Parion Sciences is developing a novel therapeutic agent that may provide long-acting relief from dry eye symptoms.\nWork on this project is complete. The investigators successfully filed an Investigational New Drug (IND) application using BrIDGs data and initiated clinical testing.\nND-directed toxicology\nNews Brief: NEI Sets Stage for New Clinical Trial to Tackle Dry Eye\nClinicalTrials.gov Listing: Study of the Safety and Tolerability of P 321 Ophthalmic Solution in Subjects With Dry Eye Disease",

        "raw_content": "St. James Roman Catholic Church was the third oldest Catholic church in Newark. In 1854, Bishop James Roosevelt Bayley officiated at the dedication of the first church of Saint James the Less a simple 40\u00d780 brick structure. From that modest beginning the church, hospital ,school, convent and rectory of Saint James the Less came to occupy the whole block bounded by Lafayette, Jefferson, Madison and Elm Streets. The magnificent Belleville brownstone church, built in the Gothic style, was dedicated in June 17, 1866. The brownstone, in spite of the Belleville brownstone appellation, was actually mined in the old 8th Avenue quarries in Newark. A 250 foot bell tower, which was visible for miles, was a splendid addition to Newark\u2019s skyline.\nFor the 1200 students that attended Saint James\u2019 school tuition was free. The elementary school was established early in the life of the parish. Later a high school was added. Saint James Hospital opened in 1896.\nThe book featured in this blog was published to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the church building. By 1966, the hospital , school and convent all had new homes. The church and rectory were the sole remnants of the older complex.\nThe archdiocese , citing escalating maintenance cost, demolished the church in 1979, to create parking for the hospital. That was a sad day for preservation in Newark.\nI have included many photos depicting the day to day activities of the parish. In them the architectural splendor of the church provides a magnificent setting for the activities of the devout. The marble, stained glass , metalwork and the decorative plaster were probably the best in Newark. That this church was destroyed as late as 1979 leaves me shaking my head.\nPosted in Misc., Newark Churches, Newark NJ churches, St. James R.C. ChurchTagged newark, Newark Churches, St. James R.C.

        "title": "Do Democrats Really Need a Message? | The New Republic",
        "raw_content": "The lamentations on the part of numerous political observers that the Democrats lack \u201ca message\u201d are becoming more frequent with the advent of the midterm elections. But they don\u2019t comport with reality, even though many Democrats also express the same worry. First, message discipline isn\u2019t particularly characteristic of the Democrats, as opposed to the Republicans, who are more homogeneous and hierarchical. There are ideological and regional differences within the Democratic Party, ranging from the very liberal left to centrists, particularly those who don\u2019t represent the coastal states. The recent split among the Senate Democrats over immigration strategy was one example. It pit the more leftward Democrats, especially those who are considering a run for the presidential nomination in 2020, against those from more conservative states. The leftward members and what some other senators call \u201cthe 2020s\u201d wanted to make a statement that guaranteeing protections for the so-called Dreamers, or DACA kids, was more important than keeping the government open\u2014a position that Republicans were using against Democratic senators up for reelection this year in the more conservative states. (Those who\u2019ve criticized Democratic leader Chuck Schumer for \u201ccaving\u201d apparently didn\u2019t see that he was trying to get his at-risk senators off that limb. They also overlooked the fact that the Democrats didn\u2019t have the votes to prevail and therefore lacked the \u201cleverage\u201d that they imputed to him.)\nIt\u2019s a lot easier to convey party cohesion in a presidential election year, when there exist an actual head of the party and a platform. (An exception to this general point is Newt Gingrich\u2019s poll-tested \u201cContract with America,\u201d which served as a party doctrine for the House Republicans in 1994.) But even when the Democrats have a presidential candidate there are limits to their cohesion. Ours isn\u2019t a parliamentary system where voting is largely done along party lines, as is the voting of the members once they\u2019re elected. Our elections are more based on the individual candidates than on their party identity. Indeed a candidate\u2019s biography could well be his or her platform\u2014the message. It could be some kind of an outstanding record: heroic military service or athletic achievement or a famous prosecutorial career, and this can matter a lot more than party identity.\nActually, one positive effect of the lack of a \u201cmessage\u201d is that it allows a candidate to define his or her own race and to come off as authentic rather than as a party tool. Running as an individual can also protect a candidate from being \u201cNancy Pelosied.\u201d The Republicans specialize in portraying Democratic candidates as instruments of a party leader who can be stereotyped. For decades the Republicans have defined a Democrat running for Congress as a vote for Nancy Pelosi, understood to be a \u201cSan Francisco liberal.\u201d (Meaning pro-gay rights and pro-leftmost policies; it\u2019s been so pounded in that what\u2019s supposed to be objectionable about her no longer needs be spelled out. She\u2019s been made into a symbol rather than a person.) Pelosi got a bit of a reprieve when Hillary Clinton ran for president. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s an accident that the two most politicized Democrats\u2014by Republicans\u2014in recent years have been women.\nIt\u2019s simply a fact that the Republicans are better at attack politics than the Democrats are. And I mean that without a value judgment. If a Democrat occupying the Oval Office had done any one of the following things, all hell would have broken loose from the Republicans: allegedly, but a charge with solid documentation, buying the silence of a person (or maybe more) with whom he\u2019d had an extramarital affair; refusing to implement a law to put new sanctions on an opposing country for having messed with our last presidential election; and presiding over a White House staff with more than a hundred people who lacked security clearances, many of them obviously requiring such a clearance to do their job.\nThe list could go on, but this, too, is all part of the matter of messaging, and who does it better\u2014whether or not that\u2019s a positive thing. Consider the difference between the dangers supposedly posed by Hillary Clinton\u2019s use of a private server at her home while she was secretary of state and dozens of people without a security clearance in highly sensitive jobs seeing the most classified material anyway. (There\u2019s also been a substantial difference in the attention of the press to these two matters, but that can be at least partly explained by the overload of scandals produced by the Trump administration.)\nI also find it baffling that Democrats haven\u2019t noisily taken on Trump for refusing to implement a law passed overwhelmingly by Congress that allows him to impose new sanctions on Russia. It was a law Trump opposed, but had to sign because a veto would have been overridden. The Republicans have traditionally been adept at seeing threats to the national security in the administrations of Democratic presidents, but it would seem that in the case of the current Republican administration, Democrats have been strangely quiet on this subject. By and large they\u2019ve been relatively restrained about Trump\u2019s odd deference to Vladimir Putin. What is it, it\u2019s widely wondered, that Putin has on him? The president, lacking subtlety in general, has been blatant in his soft-pedaling of whatever outrageous things Putin has done, which include even undermining the cornerstone of our democracy.\nAre the Democrats putting all their eggs in Robert Mueller\u2019s investigation? What if something is evident but not legally provable? (This was the case in Watergate until almost the very end\u2014with people demanding \u201ca smoking gun\u201d in a room full of smoke. Though it\u2019s worth noting that even without the late discovery of a scrap of a transcript proving that Nixon had obstructed justice, the Congress was very likely to impeach him and remove him from office.) Are the current Democrats going to let Trump and his increasingly dependent Republican Congress define what happened? If the situation were reversed\u2014if a Democratic president presented a long stream of evidence that he was under the sway of the head of a hostile country\u2014would the decibel level of the Republicans match that of the Democrats at this time?\nThe criticism that the Democrats lack a message often specifies that they lack an economic one. Trump perceived and played successfully on people\u2019s economic anxieties (why the Democratic presidential candidate missed that remains mystifying), and many Democrats themselves worry about their ability to out-Trump Trump in this November\u2019s elections. Whatever other issues are in the air, our elections\u2014one way or another\u2014are virtually always about the state of the economy.\nA big problem with the fixation on messaging is that it can become a substitute for action. Sheldon Whitehouse, a two-term Democratic senator from Rhode Island, holds a somewhat unconventional view about messaging. Whitehouse, one of the more authentic figures on Capitol Hill, says, \u201cMessaging has become a crutch; it\u2019s like a narcotic. You can bring in your pollster, you can strategize until you\u2019re blue in the face; and you\u2019re inauthentic. You\u2019re placating the public rather than leading. I think the people know the difference.\u201d Whitehouse added, \u201cOnce you get addicted to the drug, you put your polling ahead of your performance.\u201d He believes that too often Democrats have walked away from a fight for fear of upsetting some important figure, or don\u2019t want to take on a battle unless they\u2019re sure that they\u2019ll win it. Whitehouse believes that the message comes from taking action, from fighting the good fight, rather than sitting through hours of meetings, studying charts and graphs about the public\u2019s views.\nWhen the Democrats met at Mount Vernon at the end of January this year, they went through what\u2019s become a common ritual: a display of five \u201creal people,\u201d like creatures in a zoo, plus an interlocutor to ascertain what these real people think about the issues of the day. It\u2019s as if the politicians otherwise never encounter a normal human being. Much is made of these people\u2019s comments\u2014in the moment. But one wonders how much lasting wisdom emanates from such an exercise. I should think that fairly frequent town halls and accessibility would be at least as instructive.\nAs Whitehouse points out, such exercises can have a purpose that\u2019s somewhat disturbing. It can be less to understand how \u201creal people\u201d feel about the issues and more for the purpose of \u201cgetting them to think the way we want them to,\u201d he says. Has politics thus been turned upside down? Who is leading whom? Canned politicians aren\u2019t nearly as appealing as fresh ones.\nWhat ever happened to instinct? Or taking a chance? The poll-strapped candidate usually comes off as too designing\u2014an experience this country had recently. A danger is that ostensibly authentic candidates can be less real than they pretend to be. Scoundrels can get into the act of faux populism\u2014sometimes successfully, as we know. Which is what makes the real thing all the more necessary.\nPolitics, Democratic Party, Chuck Schumer, Donald Trump, Nancy Pelosi, Immigration, DACA",

        "raw_content": "From Dream to Reality: The Entire Class at this Brooklyn Charter School Is Going to College!\nMay 26, 2017 March 20, 2018 Laura Waters\nKiara Damon first started thinking about college when she entered fifth grade at Williamsburg Collegiate Middle School, a Brooklyn charter school run by the Uncommon Schools network.\n\u201cIt was always college, college, college,\u201d Kiara said. \u201cWe were always the class of 2021, not the class of 2017.\u201d\nKira was one of 87 graduating seniors from Uncommon Charter High School in Bedford-Stuyvesant who took part in a college signing day event Thursday designed to celebrate the academic achievements of the Class of 2017.\nOr as Uncommon would describe them, the Class of 2021, the year these students will \u2013 emphasis on the word \u201cwill\u201d \u2013 graduate from college. The two-hour rally for the students was even covered by the local CBS news station.\nNew York high schools are increasingly holding end-of-year college signing ceremonies, which borrow heavily from more traditional NCAA signing events, when student-athletes announce their Division 1 college choice.\nIn New York City, 282 public schools registered for \u201cCollege Decision Day\u201d this year, nearly triple last year\u2019s 100 schools. This includes 79 schools in Brooklyn, according to Kings County Politics.\nAchievement First recently held the last of its three NYC Senior Signing Days, one at each of their full-sized high schools. Students declared their final decisions for colleges, which included Princeton University, New York University, Yale University, Smith College, Johns Hopkins University, Bowdoin College, Middlebury College, Wesleyan University and many CUNY and SUNY campuses across the city and state.\nAF student speakers shared stories of how far they\u2019ve come and what they hope to do next. \u201cWe are ready to be the protagonists in our story,\u201d senior Emmanuel Rowland told the crowd. \u201cToday, my story changes. In the fall of 2017, I am putting pen to paper to begin writing my next chapter at Carleton College.\u201d\nAF\u2019s Tagmy Castillo wants to be a role model and proof point: \u201cAs one of the first in my family to go to college, I want to be an inspiration for my brothers to look up to. I will not be a negative statistic; I will be a positive one.\u201d She\u2019s bound for John Jay\nAt Uncommon Charter High School, 100 percent of the graduating class is planning to attend college in the fall. The class of 2017 earned more than $1.5 million in scholarships.\nOn Thursday, each graduating Uncommon senior walked \u2013or danced\u2013across the stage in the high school auditorium, unfurled a shirt a banner or a backpack from their college, and announced their choice.\nThe audience, made up of fellow graduates, underclassmen, teachers and family, didn\u2019t just applaud politely after each announcement. They cheered loudly and enthusiastically for each and every student, often jumping out of their seats to dance with the graduate for a few seconds as the DJ blared the students\u2019 favorite song.\n\u201cThis day didn\u2019t just happen for these student by some stroke of luck,\u201d said Uncommon Charter High School Principal Thomas O\u2019Brien. \u201cEvery member of this graduating class worked extraordinarily hard to get to this point in their academic journey. They deserve this day.\u201d\nUncommon Charter High School is part of Uncommon Schools\u2019 network of 22 schools in Brooklyn serving over 7,500 students. Uncommon Collegiate, its sister school in Brooklyn, held its senior signing day last Thursday.\nGoing to college may not seem like the biggest of deals these days, but it remains an all to illusive goal for many public high school students in urban areas.\nAnd even for those who get there, actually graduating from college is not guaranteed. Fewer than 15% of students in the lowest income quartile in the U.S. graduate from a four-year college, compared with 77% of students in the top-income quartile. About 82% of Uncommon students have either graduated or are on track to graduate from college.\nKiara, who is headed to Lehigh University in the fall, said going to Uncommon since fifth grade made her believe that college was always in reach.\n\u201cAt the end of the day, the goal was to make it to and through college,\u201d said Kiara, who grew up in Bedford Stuyvesant.\nCassandra Fleurelus, who is headed to George Washington University to major in biology, hopes to get into pharmaceutical research after she graduates\nThe 18 year old, whose mother is from Haiti, said English was not her first language. She did not even learn to speak English until preschool. In first grade, she said she was diagnosed with ADHD. Her school at the time did not provide her with much support, she said.\nIn fifth grade, her mom discovered Kings Collegiate, another middle school run by Uncommon.\n\u201cI remember after my first day, I came home and cried,\u201d Cassandra said. \u201cIt was so difficult. I didn\u2019t know how I was going to deal with all the work. But I learned how to cope with my disability without using it as an excuse.\u201d\nCassandra said she initially had reservations about continuing with Uncommon for high school, but she realized that she was never going to get the kind of support she needed at any other school.\n\u201cI know people who had to pay for therapy and tutoring,\u201d she said. \u201cI am fortunate that I did not have to go out of my way to find support. I had all the support I needed in my high school.\u201d\nIn her junior year, her teachers suggested she apply for the Applied Research Innovations in Science and Engineering program at New York University designed for talented New York City high school sophomores and juniors.\n\u201cI owe that to Uncommon for pushing me,\u201d Cassandra said. \u201cThe NYU program made me want to go into pharmaceutical research.\u201d\nJosh Morrison, who is attending Saint Lawrence University in the fall, credits Uncommon with helping him achieve his goal of attending a four-year college on a full scholarship.\nMorrison, who grew up in Canarsie, said he always believed he would go to college even though college wasn\u2019t something that many of his friends from the neighborhood were thinking about.\n\u201cMy academic career would have ended at an associates degree,\u201d he said. \u201cI think Uncommon was a big factor in making me realize I could get a four-year degree.\u201d\nBrooklyn College and Career Ready College Completion Low-Income Students Minority Students Public Charter Schools Student Voices Students of Color\nPrevious Post A Political Play or Pushback Against Mediocrity?

She\u2019s been writing since childhood and lives in a quaint seaside town near Athens with her husband Andy and a naughty cat called Felix. Her debut novel, \u201cThe Necklace of Goddess Athena\u201d, is a fantasy adventure of Greek myths and time travel that\u2019s suitable for all ages. It\u2019s been described as a \u201cRare Gem\u201d by the Fantasy & Sci-fi Network and has reached Amazon\u2019s #1 in Mythology and #2 in Fairy Tales. The novel also made the shortlist in 2014 for the \u201c50 Best Self-Published Books Worth Reading\u201d from Indie Author Land. Effrosyni\u2019s second novel, \u201cThe Lady of the Pier \u2013 The Ebb\u201d, is an ABNA quarter-finalist. The book follows the lives and loves of two young girls who\u2019ve never met but are connected in a mysterious way. It is the first part of a paranormal romance that\u2019s set in Brighton (England) in the 1930\u2019s and in Corfu (Greece) in the 1980\u2019s. Effrosyni is currently penning the second part of the series (\u201cThe Flow\u201d), which she plans to publish in 2015. On her blog, Effrosyni presents the works of fellow indie authors with spotlights, interviews, and book reviews. She also posts her own content of various subjects, such as travel articles, inspiring personal accounts, tips for authors, and even some Greek recipes.\nEfimios is an ancient Greek and an unsung hero of Athens. He has saved the city countless times by undertaking time-travelling missions as instructed by Goddess Athena herself. Now an elderly man, he sends his son Phevos and his adopted daughter Daphne on a time-travelling quest to modern-day Athens. Mysterious as always, he only advises his children to look out for the signs without offering any explanations. Mystified, yet eager to obey their father\u2019s will, Phevos and Daphne settle down in this new world, having been offered assistance by two orphaned siblings: Ksenia and Manos. New friendships and romantic love change their lives while their father\u2019s covert purpose is gradually revealed. As the youngsters continue to unravel the secrets of their family past, inevitably they get caught up in the ongoing conflict between two Gods, one of which becomes their protector and the other, their worst nemesis. Who will prevail when the rival Gods meet again and will the mortal bystanders survive to tell the tale?\n\u201cBeautifully written \u2013 an enchanting read!\u201d\n\u201cA sweet, nostalgic view of Athens.\u201d\n\u201cYou will be left wishing it had never ended.\u201d\n\u201cWisdom, eternal values, and ethos are at the heart of this book.\u201d\n\u201cI didn\u2019t want it to end \u2013 a remarkable achievement!\u201d\n\u201cGem after gem of wisdom that will touch your heart.\u201d\n\u201cEach word is a picture!

        "raw_content": "European companies\u2019 business sentiment in Vietnam is at the highest level in 18 months, EuroCham\u2019s Business Climate Index shows.\nThe latest index (BCI), which the business group released Wednesday, is at just two points below the all-time high achieved in the third quarter of 2016.\nThis growing confidence in Vietnam\u2019s trade and investment environment is reflected in a six-point jump in the second quarter of this year against the first quarter.\nThe BCI shows Vietnam is open for business as an attractive trade and investment destination, Nicolas Audier, co-chairman of EuroCham, said in a press release.\n\u201cThe EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) should be ratified soon. On the cusp of this historic deal, which will boost trade and investment on both sides, we hope this positive message from EuroCham and its members will inspire the government to continue opening its markets to foreign investment and improving its trade and investment environment.\u201d\nEuroCham members reported an optimistic outlook on a range of issues, from their own investment and profit projections to workforce levels and Vietnam\u2019s economic outlook.\nOver 70 percent reported a positive situation at their enterprise in the last quarter, with 62 percent describing it as \u2018good\u2019 and 12 percent as \u2018excellent\u2019.\nLooking ahead to the next quarter, 64 percent believed their business situation would be \u2018good\u2019 while 15 percent said \u2018excellent\u2019.\nEuroCham members are also optimistic about Vietnam\u2019s economic outlook, with 57 percent predicting \u2018stabilization and improvement\u2019 in the next quarter and 34 percent believing it would remain unchanged.\nFifty seven percent believed their business would see either a \u2018significant\u2019 or \u2018moderate\u2019 increase in staff next quarter, while 61 percent expected either a \u2018significant\u2019 or \u2018moderate\u2019 increase in investment.\nOver three-quarters of members (76 percent) believed orders or revenues would see a \u2018significant\u2019 or \u2018moderate\u2019 increase in the third quarter.\nFor the first time, EuroCham asked members for their views on corporate social responsibility (CSR). 87 percent said CSR is important to their business operations in Vietnam. The main motivations for CSR included \u2018brand reputation\u2019 and \u2018customer/environmental concern\u2019.\nVietnam\u2019s GDP grew by 6.98 percent between January and September, the highest nine-month rate since 2011. The economy grew by 6.81 percent last year, the highest in a decade.\nThe foreign sector\u2019s exports in the first eight months of the year were worth $110.3 billion, up 13.4 percent year-on-year and accounting for 71 percent of the country\u2019s total exports of $155.4 billion.\nSource: https://www.eurochamvn.org/node/17656",

James Messerschmidt\nWHAT A BUNCH OF JUNK: \u201cIt\u2019s such a beautiful little hamlet, and they\u2019re going to destroy it,\u201d says Dr. David Friedman, a gynecologist who rents at 1735 York Ave. but plans to leave as soon as his lease is up. (James Messerschmidt)\nUpper Easter Siders are scrambling to sell their posh apartments before the city opens a gigantic waste-transfer station, bringing garbage trucks through the neighborhood 24 hours a day.\n\u201cThe waste dump . . . and the stench and the hazard it poses, that was one of the major factors in the decision to move,\u201d said Dr. Laurence Orbuch, who recently sold his family\u2019s penthouse condo at 52 East End Ave.\nThat\u2019s nearly 10 blocks away from the $240 million project on the East River at East 91st Street.\n\u201cWe have small children, and we go to the park in the neighborhood, and the [idea of] garbage trucks rolling through the neighborhood 24/7, it put a damper on the serene nature of the neighborhood,\u201d said Orbuch, who has lived in his home since 2004.\nThe doctor \u2014 who \u201chad to come down in my price\u201d in order to unload his four-bedroom apartment for $3.66 million \u2014 is also trying to sell his mother\u2019s two-bedroom apartment at 531 E. 88th St.\nConstruction will begin this month on the 10-floor facility, which is expected to open in 2015.\nIt will become Manhattan\u2019s only waste-transfer plant, receiving up to 500 truckloads of junk every day.\nLocals dread the traffic congestion, diesel fumes and smell of rubbish they say will follow.\nIf she\u2019s able to sell, Orbuch\u2019s mother would join four other residents of her 25-unit building in fleeing the neighborhood before construction begins on the plant.\nThat means 20 percent of units in her building have either sold or been put up for sale since September, records show.\n\u201cThe building is having difficulty selling because of the [waste-treatment project],\u201d said Jessica Levine, a broker for Douglas Elliman.\n\u201cI sold three apartments in this building. I took over the listing from two other agents who had trouble selling.\u201d\nThat\u2019s been the case for Olga Arandia, a 74-year-old retiree who has lived for 17 years at 200 East End Ave.\nShe\u2019s been trying to sell her four-bed, three-bath unit for the past year, and \u201cone of the reasons is because of the marine terminal,\u201d she said, using the local nickname for the project.\nEven though her apartment is \u201clovely, with a beautiful view,\u201d Arandia had to lower her asking price by $100,000 from $2.75 million because potential buyers were concerned about the waste plant.\n\u201cThe only objection they have is to the marine terminal,\u201d she said, adding that the project is \u201cgoing to ruin the neighborhood.\u201d\nAnd her neighbor Benjamin Hartman, 51, said he and his wife will sell their apartment because the waste-transfer project is \u201cgoing to crater the property values in the area.\u201d\n\u201cIt\u2019s the lines and idling trash trucks. I\u2019m very concerned about the traffic increases,\u201d said Hartman, who works as a chief technology officer. \u201cWe figure it\u2019s better to move out sooner rather than later.\u201d\nEven brokers have had deals fall through, once buyers realize the plant will be so close by.\n\u201cIt could have the potential to annihilate the market,\u201d said Victoria Terri-Cote, vice president of Corcoran real estate.\n\u201cPeople are distressed about the impact it\u2019s going to have on their investment in the property that they currently have, and how they\u2019re going to sell it.\u201d\nAn analysis by the real-estate Web site StreetEasy shows that the median sale price of residential property in Yorkville is down 11 percent from the 2008 median price.\nThat\u2019s a bigger drop than the 9.2 percent across Manhattan during the same period.\n\u201cIt\u2019s scaring people,\u201d said Phyllis Gallaway, a senior VP with Sotheby\u2019s, who added that she has had buyers who \u201cbacked out because of the station.\u201d\nEven people who rent in the neighborhood \u2014 and were looking to buy \u2014 canceled their plans.\n\u201cI was going to buy in this neighborhood . . . but I won\u2019t now,\u201d said Dr. David Friedman, a gynecologist who rents at 1735 York Ave., at 90th Street.\n\u201cIt\u2019s such a beautiful little hamlet, and they\u2019re going to destroy it.\u201d\nBut Mayor Bloomberg\u2019s spokesman John McCarthy said, \u201cThere was an active transfer facility in the same exact location for nearly half a century until 1999, and the neighborhood prospered.\u201d\nKilled over rent: Landlord shoots tenant dead in fight ove...",

        "title": "OC students welcome new laptop, iPhone program | Oklahoma Christian University",
        "raw_content": "OC students welcome new laptop, iPhone program\nOklahoma Christian University (OC) has been a national leader in campus mobile computing since 2001 when it issued laptops to all students and became the first completely wireless campus in the state and one of the few in the nation. Since that time, the mobile teaching and learning initiative has seen great gains in student learning capabilities, providing increased communication and connecting students to learning resources.\nIn March, Oklahoma Christian announced plans to move from a PC-based one-to-one student laptop program to Apple MacBooks. The MacBook systems were provided to students with both major operating systems, Mac OS X and Windows Vista. Current students welcomed this change and 84 percent opted to pay an upgrade fee, returning their university-issued PC laptop for the new MacBook.\nAs students return to campus beginning August 23, they will also be issued an iPhone or iPod touch. Oklahoma Christian will be one of the first universities issuing these mobile devices.\n\u201cWe hope these changes to our mobile computing platforms will continue to enhance student learning and expand communication to our students,\u201d said John Hermes, chief technology officer.\n\u201cIt is our intention at Oklahoma Christian to provide our students with not only the latest technology, but with the tools needed to be continuous, life-long learners and productive citizens wherever life may lead them,\u201d said President Mike O\u2019Neal. \u201cEven more important than the technology is the faculty\u2019s role in teaching the students to discern what is important in a time of information overload, to think critically, and to apply their education most effectively in service to their families, their employers and their global communities.\u201d\nWith these new mobile devices the university will also launch several new and updated web applications. \u201cThe iPhone will take the university\u2019s one-to-one program to the next level,\u201d said Luke Hartman, OC\u2019s academic multimedia specialist. With the switch to Apple, the university will also launch its new mobile web application, \u201cInTouch.\u201d\n\u201cThe InTouch application will give students a mobile portal to course information, campus events, and local entertainment in the palm of their hands,\u201d Hartman said. \u201cAnd since Oklahoma City and Edmond both support AT&T\u2019s 3G network, the iPhone will work well for students even when they are away from the campus-wide wireless infrastructure\u2014keeping students \u2018in touch\u2019 no matter where they are.\u201d\nThe university has also upgraded other online web applications that have been used for the laptop program, including a flash card application and an \u201cinstapoll\u201d application, allowing faculty to poll a class and receive immediate results from the student laptop, iPhone, or iPod.\n\u201cThese two programs are the first steps in allowing students to be deeper in touch with their educational process and will complement two very different aspects of learning,\u201d Hartman said. \u201cBy making use of Apple\u2019s touch events, students can flip through \u2018cards\u2019 giving students a sleek and convenient 21st century approach to the old method of note cards for memorizing information.\n\u201cThe instapoll is at the other end of the educational process,\u201d he said. \u201cWith this program faculty members can, in a matter of seconds, write on-the-spot questions for their classes and receive instant feedback as to how well the students are grasping the information. This puts more of the control in the hands of the students. Our goal is to help faculty and students see just how limitless this electronic initiative can be. We know this is only the beginning.\u201d\nFaculty will also benefit from the new initiative as the Apple MacBooks make it easier for them to create multimedia courseware. The iPhone or iPod will help push educational resources such as discipline-related podcasts to students to supplement or enhance their learning.\n\u201cAT&T\u2019s 3G wireless network, combined with Apple\u2019s powerful new iPhone 3G device, will serve Oklahoma Christian students well and help further their education in an exciting new way,\u201d said Lora Lee Laird, director of sales, AT&T Oklahoma. \u201cAT&T is proud to play a part in bringing the iPhone 3G to OC students and faculty, and we hope the success the school sees with this program will serve as a model for other educational institutions.\u201d\nAT&T\u2019s third-generation (3G) wireless service offers consumers and businesses broadband-like speed and access to the latest interactive voice, video and data applications. AT&T\u2019s 3G network opens the door to a new era of mobile services, devices and feature-rich audio and video content, including the simultaneous sharing of voice and live video.\nSince 2005, AT&T has invested nearly $200 million in Oklahoma to expand and enhance its wireless network, including a planned $50 million investment in 2008. The AT&T 3G network is now available in more than 300 U.S. major metropolitan areas. The company will deliver 3G service to nearly 350 leading U.S. markets by the end of 2008, including all of the top 100 U.S. cities.",

        "raw_content": "Online Dating Provides Criminals Opportunities to Cyber Scam\nPosted by Security Awareness on February 20, 2017\nLast week was Valentine\u2019s Day, a holiday that celebrates romance and love. No doubt the Pew Research Center had this in mind when it released their February 11 study indicating that 15% of Americans adults have used online or mobile apps to find love (http://www.pewinternet.org/2016/02/11/15-percent-of-american-adults-have-used-online-dating-sites-or-mobile-dating-apps/.\nOf course many people characterize Valentine\u2019s Day as a \u201cHallmark Holiday,\u201d claiming it is more of a tool used by businesses to empty consumers\u2019 wallets than it is a celebration of love and romance. Now many cybercriminals are using dating services in the same way -- to get to the wallets of consumers looking for love.\nThe FBI is taking notice (https://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/romance-scams). They report that last year almost 15,000 complaints categorized as \u201cromance scams\u201d or confidence fraud were reported to their Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3), up nearly 2,500 from the previous year. Losses by victims associated with these complaints exceeded $230 million.\nSpecial Agent Christine Beining of the IC3 explains that confidence fraud is attractive to scammers because it is a very difficult crime to prove. If someone hides behind a computer, even if the IC3 can find out where they are, it is still difficult to identify who they are.\nThe Pew report says online dating by 55-64 year olds has doubled in the last year. This population is especially vulnerable because many are less tech-savvy and may be more established financially. The FBI published the story of a Texas woman in her fifties who was struggling in her marriage, and lost $2 million to a romance scam. She came forward \u201cbecause I don\u2019t want this to happen to anybody else. I not only invested money in this man but there is a big, huge piece of my heart that I invested in him,\u201d she said. (Full story at - https://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/romance-scams)\nThe FBI offers these steps to stay safe while online dating:\nResearch the person\u2019s photo and profile using online searches to see if the material has been used elsewhere, legitimately or as a different identity.\nGo slow and ask questions.\nBeware of an individual who seems too perfect or quickly asks you to leave a dating service or Facebook to go \u201coffline.\u201d\nBeware of those who try to isolate you from friends and family or request inappropriate photos or financial information that could later be used to extort you.\nBe wary of an individual who promises to meet in person but then always comes up with an excuse why he or she can\u2019t. If you haven\u2019t met the person after a few months, for whatever reason, you have good reason to be suspicious.\nNever send money to anyone you don\u2019t know personally.\nThe FBI also councils that if you suspect an online relationship is a scam to stop all contact immediately and to file a complaint with their Internet Crime Complaint Center at this link: https://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx\nsecurity, cybersecurity, Enterprise Security, threat intelligence",

The notification may contain also an exhortation to contact the officer in charge and an advance notice of a forthcoming garnishment or distraint measure.\nIn addition to the notification, also a collection letter is normally sent to the debtor. The objective is that the debtor repay the debt voluntarily.\nIf the debtor cannot repay the debt, he or she must contact the enforcement officer in charge of the matter. If the debtor fails to take contact, all enforcement decisions will be made on the basis of the information otherwise available to the enforcement authority.\nIn order to secure access to information, the enforcement authority can exercise certain powers of compulsion (coercive enforcement).\nIn order to achieve voluntary repayment of the debt, the enforcement officer and the debtor may set up a payment schedule. The preconditions for a schedule will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.\nIf the debtor is unable to make voluntary payments, it will be necessary to garnish his or her wages or to distrain assets.",

        "raw_content": "The 10 Most Influential Oil Countries\nThe world\u2019s top oil exporters are undoubtedly some of the world\u2019s most influential countries. As such, it behooves analysts to always stay abreast of the internal dynamics of these economic power houses. Here\u2019s what\u2019s going on in the countries that have the power to make or break the oil market.\nAs the world\u2019s leading oil exporter, Saudi Arabia shipped 7.5 million barrels per day in 2016, according to data published by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). As far as oil exports go, the Kingdom is top of the pile, despite the OPEC agreement that cut 486,000 barrels per day off its production level of 10.5 million bpd. The Kingdom holds a lot of clout in the oil market, and as such, plays a leading role in the industry cartel, which is currently implementing a 1.2 million-barrel per day production cut to rebalance a three-year supply glut plaguing oil markets.\nDespite its reigning supreme in the oil export arena, not all is well in the royal palace. Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), the newly crowned heir to the throne, started the month off with a series of shocking arrests of powerful royals and businessmen in a domestic power consolidation marketed in official outlets as an anti-corruption drive.\nThe unity of the Saud family has been a hallmark of the nation since the establishment of the Third Saudi State back in 1902. Infighting in the palace could cause the nation to fall back into contentious politics at a time when it needs to chart its course towards economic diversification, as outlined in MBS\u2019s Vision 2030\u2014a plan that may move Saudi Arabia away from oil, unseating it from its top spot on the list.\nOutside of OPEC, Russia dominates the oil export game, hitting roughly 5.5 million barrels per day last year. Like Saudi Arabia, it too has clout, and it knows how to use it.\nMoscow has teamed up with its rivals at OPEC to reduce the current oversupply that is keeping oil prices down. Russia has cut output by 300,000 bpd to assist in the team effort, but the reduction largely cuts into a boost in production that began right before the agreement was made.\nRussia\u2019s oil plays have focused on the Middle East as the U.S. foreign policy agenda in the region has weakened following the swearing in of President Donald Trump. Libya, Syria, and Iraq are now all on the receiving end of extra attention from Putin since the beginning of the year.\nBaghdad has been particularly resistant to calls to reduce production to levels agreed upon in the OPEC quotas, claiming that it is in desperate need of the oil revenues. Its stubborn resistance has forced Saudi Arabia to compensate for Iraq\u2019s steady production levels, which amounted to an export rate of 3.8 million barrels per day in 2016, according to OPEC data.\nCanada is the largest exporter that is not part of the OPEC/NOPEC agreement, putting it at economic odds with the efforts to draw down the global glut. With the world\u2019s third-largest oil reserves, Canada exports just over 3.2 million barrels per day, mostly to the USA.\nCanada\u2019s status as a reliable ally to the American and Western European foreign policy agenda provides a guilt-free source of fuel for its southern neighbor. Thousands of miles pipelines connect the U.S. and Canada, the most significant of which is the Keystone pipeline, controversially being expanded to XL status to bring Canadian oil to Gulf refineries.\nIts pipeline woes, caused by pipelines falling grossly out of favor as of late, may soon cap its exports to America.\nThe tiny Gulf community of emirates exported an impressive 2.5 million barrels per day last year, which represents 40 percent of the country's GDP. It\u2019s recent squabble with neighboring Qatar has put the UEA in the spotlight.\nThe UAE was a key ally for Saudi Arabia in its ongoing battle against Qatar\u2019s acquiescence of Iran for the exploitation of the South Pars gas field. The blockade against Doha, which began back in June, caused the UAE to end its relationship as the central shipping hub of the Qatari LNG industry\u2014the largest of its kind.\nRelated: Thanksgiving Travelers Smash Records\nAs for its commitment to the OPEC deal, the UAE has been quick to publicly support an extension\u2014but has only managed to comply fully with the cuts for a single month out of the entire length of the agreement.\nWhile it\u2019s not a big player in the export market, oil is the backbone of Kuwait\u2019s economy. Kuwait pumped out 2.1 million barrels per day into international markets back in 2016, which represents 95 percent of the country\u2019s total export revenues.\nIraq is still paying reparations to Kuwait for its invasion of the latter country back in 1990.\nOff again, on again most aptly describes Iran\u2019s presence on this list. Once a non-entity in the oil market due to the sanctions levied against it, now it\u2019s established its presence, taking a bite out of Saudi Arabi\u2019s market share. Although both Saudi Arabia and Iran are members of OPEC, they are competing for market share as Iran struggles to regain what it lost during those painful sanction years.\nSince Iran\u2019s reintroduction to world oil markets in January, Tehran has recovered its output to an average of about 2 million barrels per day. Production has been running a bit over 3.8 million bpd\u2014more than both Kuwait and the UEA which have beat Iran with exports.\nThe Trump administration is determined to terminate the international nuclear pact against Iran, threatening its spot here on this list, but Tehran\u2019s strict adherence to the terms of the deal makes it difficult for a Republican Congress to justify levying new sanctions against the country in front of the international community.\nVenezuela, a nation failing to fund its hospitals and stock its grocery stores, is a founding member of the cartel, with an export rate still falling from a 2016 average of 1.9 million barrels per day in 2016, according to OPEC. Oil money earns the country 95 percent of its export revenues. Production in October 2017 has fallen to 1.863 million bpd, and exports along with it. Related: Is This The Ultimate Fuel For Millennials?\nWhile it\u2019s perceived clout in the world when it comes to oil exports appears to be waning, its ability to swing prices is strong, in that prices jump every time news breaks of its pending default\u2014or actual default. Its poor oil quality has caused some shipments of oil to be refused, and it has struggled to keep production going as its cash dries up.\nYears of economic mismanagement exacerbated by a three-year downturn in oil prices have now caused runaway inflation and violent street clashes, as President Nicolas Maduro prioritizes paying its international creditors, the most prominent of whom have already declared Caracas in default.\nNigeria, the largest African oil producer and exporter, ships 1.7 million barrels per day of oil. In 2016, it temporarily lost the top spot to Angola due to a militancy in the Niger Delta, a major oil-producing region.\nSince the beginning of the year, the nation has stabilized, allowing output to recover at a cap of 1.8 million barrels per day. OPEC required the cap to make sure the nation\u2019s gains do not interfere with the bloc\u2019s production quota program.\nAngola shipped 1.7 million barrels per day in 2016, with oil production and supporting activities contributing to roughly 45 percent of the nation\u2019s gross domestic product and 95 percent of its exports.\nThe country\u2019s new president just fired Isabel dos Santos, Africa\u2019s richest woman, from her post as chief of Sonangol as part of a push to end entrenched corruption.\nShale Hedges Threaten The Oil Rally\nIs Texas Poised For A Sharp Rise In Output?\nVenezuela\u2019s PDVSA To Cut Costs By 50%\nTony on November 24 2017 said:\nWhere is USA?

        "title": "New Theory of Okinawan Coral Migration and Diversity Proposed | Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University OIST",
        "raw_content": "New Theory of Okinawan Coral Migration and Diversity Proposed\nA team from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST), led by Group Leader Chuya Shinzato in Professor Noriyuki Satoh\u2019s Marine Genomics Unit, has analyzed the genome of 155 samples of Acropora digitifera corals and proposed a new theory on how coral populations have migrated within the Ryukyu Archipelago, in southern Japan. Their findings have just been published in Scientific Reports.\nFull moon nights in summer are very special for corals. At 10 p.m., when water is around 24\u00b0C (75\u00b0F), Acropora digitifera corals in the southernmost part of Japan start to release their eggs and sperm, known as gametes, exactly at the same time in a process called synchronized spawning. Since corals cannot move to find a partner, they let their reproductive cells free float in the ocean, hoping for an encounter. Understanding how the resulting newborn coral larvae migrate and settle is crucial to protect our beautiful coral reef.\nAcropora coral synchronized sprawling\nYuna Zayasu\nOne of the most outstanding and diverse coral reefs in the world is found in the Ryukyu Archipelago, a group of subtropical islands and islets belonging to Japan and blessed by the warm Kuroshio ocean current. In 1998, a worldwide coral bleaching event destroyed the corals in some parts of the Archipelago. It seriously damaged the corals in waters around the Okinawa Islands, but did not affect the ones in the Kerama Islands. It took a decade for the some corals of the Okinawa Islands to recover and the common belief was that the Okinawa corals repopulated thanks to the dispersal of healthy coral larvae from the Kerama Islands, which are 40 km away. Coral genome analysis conducted by OIST has now showed that this is very unlikely.\nRecent recovery of coral reefs in the Sesoko Island in the Okinawa Islands.\nOIST scientists analyzed the genome of 155 samples of Acropora digitifera corals, collected across the Ryukyu Archipelago. In particular, they focused on subtle genetic variations that can be used to differentiate these corals into subpopulations. OIST scientists took into account 905,561 of these variations, called single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs, pronounced \u201csnips\u201d. The genome analysis showed that the corals divide into 4 groups, corresponding to their geographical distribution: the Okinawa Islands, the Kerama Islands, the Yaeyama-North and the Yaeyama-South. This result has significant implications regarding the recovery from the 1998 coral bleaching. \u201cIf the corals in the Okinawa Islands were repopulated thanks to migration of coral larvae from the Keramas, we would expect to see the genetic clusters of Okinawa Islands and Kerama Islands merging together. Instead these clusters are very distinct,\u201d explains Dr Chuya Shinzato, first author of this study and active member of the Coral Reef Conservation and Restoration Project spearheaded by the Okinawa Prefecture. \u201cThis result shows that the coral populations of the Okinawa and Kerama Islands have not met recently. It means that long-distant larvae migration by spawning within the Ryukyu Archipelago is less common than what was previously thought.\u201d It is therefore more likely that the survivors of the 1998 bleaching in the Okinawa Islands repopulated themselves, without mixing with the corals from the Kerama Islands.\nAcropora digitifera corals (a) were collected in four locations of the Ryukyu Archipelago (b) in southernmost Japan: the Okinawa Islands (c), the Kerama Islands (d) and the Yaeyama Islands (e). The warm Kuroshio ocean current is indicated by blue arrows.\nGenome analysis of coral samples collected from the Kerama, the Okinawa, the Yaeyama Islands, with each square, circle and triangle representing one coral sample. The samples cluster in 4 groups indicating that the coral larvae did not migrate between locations.\nWell-known for the richness of their corals, the Kerama Islands won the status of a Japanese national park in 2014. The Keramas were believed to be the point of origin of coral migratory pathways in the Ryukyu Archipelago. However, OIST researchers have discovered that these Islands are sinks of coral migration, rather than sources. Their \u201cmelting pot\u201d explains the abundance and diversity of the Keramas\u2019 corals. On the other hand, in the case of another disruptive event, such as coral bleaching, the Keramas\u2019 corals cannot guarantee the recovery of the affected areas. \u201cWe need to protect coral reefs locally all over the Ryukyu Archipelago,\u201d points out Dr Shinzato.\nCoral populations are under threat across the globe. The analysis of coral genomes in relation to their larvae migratory pathways is essential to preserve and restore the richness and beauty of the coral reef.\nBy Letizia Diamante\nDr Chuya Shinzato, first author of the study, 'Genome-wide SNP analysis explains coral diversity and recovery in the Ryukyu Archipelago'.\nAcropora digitifera coral synchronized sprawling.\nAcropora reef-building coral synchronized sprawling\nVideo of Acropora reef-building coral synchronized sprawling\nEnvironmental and Ecological Sciences",

        "raw_content": "Suspended police officers make Ontario's Sunshine List\nby Thomas \u00bb Tue Apr 04, 2017 3:33 pm\nCBC Toronto analysis reveals officers making six figures while suspended\nAt least 12 police officers in Ontario earned more than $100,000 each in 2016 while sitting at home for most or all of the year, suspended over criminal charges yet collecting their full pay, an exclusive CBC Toronto analysis reveals.\n\u200bTheir salaries are revealed on Ontario's 2016 Sunshine List of top public sector earners.\nOntario is the only province in Canada where suspended police officers must be paid until and unless they are sentenced to serve time. The Liberal government is currently reconsidering that law as part of a sweeping review of policing in the province.\nAll four Toronto Police officers charged with perjury and obstruction of justice for allegedly planting heroin on a suspect's dashboard made the 2016 Sunshine List, even though they were suspended in January last year.\n- Const. Michael Taylor: $109,148\n- Det. Const. Benjamin Elliot: $103,810\n- Det. Const. Fraser Douglas: $103,561\n- Const. Jeffrey Tout: $101,174\nTwo other suspended Toronto Police Service members are on the Sunshine List:\n- Sgt. Christopher Heard: $119,921 (suspended in May 2016, charged with sexual assault, accused of sexually assaulting a woman in his cruiser).\n- Sgt. Robert Goudie: $116,524 (suspended in November 2015, charged with assault in connection with an altercation in a Scarborough parking lot that sent a man to hospital).\nTwo Ottawa police officers suspended in 2016 appear on the Sunshine List:\n- Const. Peter Dawson: $102,330 (suspended in February 2016 over allegations of falsely issuing traffic warnings).\n- Const. Christian Nungisa: $102,462 (suspended in May 2016 and later charged with unsafe storage of a firearm). He was also charged with impaired driving in February of this year.\nCBC Toronto also asked the province's three other largest police forces, the Ontario Provincial Police, Peel Regional Police and York Regional Police to provide the names and ranks of their officers currently suspended with pay.\nThe OPP declined to provide a list of its suspended officers and said a Freedom of Information request would be necessary to release the names.\nHowever, by examining information in news reports and searching the Sunshine List, CBC Toronto determined that at least four OPP officers spent all of 2016 on suspension yet earned more than $100,000.\nAll three members of the OPP Association union executive who were suspended in March 2015 over allegations of fraud and money laundering appear on the Sunshine List for 2016:\n- Det.-Sgt. James Christie: $121,795\n- Const. Karl Walsh: $106,474\n- Const. Martin Bain $106,440\nAs well, OPP Brockville detachment Const. George Duke, charged with theft over $5,000 and suspended in November 2015, earned $107,857 in 2016, according to the Sunshine List.\nIn total, 62 officers on the province's five largest police forces are currently suspended with pay.\nOfficers suspended with pay:\nOntario Provincial Police\t31\nToronto Police Service\t15\nOttawa Police Service\t7\nPeel Regional Police\t7\nYork Regional Police\t2\nThe issue of suspending police officers with pay has been under \"serious discussion\" for the past year, said Marie-France Lalonde, minister for community safety and correctional services.\n\"We have not made any final decision, but certainly this is something that, as we move forward on our strategy for a safer Ontario, it will be part of the modernizing,\" Lalonde said in an interview with CBC News at Queen's Park on Monday. \"I think we are coming around to think that we need to do something and to ensure that we find the right solution.\"\nLalonde is promising to unveil her strategy for reforms to policing by June.\nhttp://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/s ... -1.4053012\nSuspended cop on Sunshine List\nThe Ontario Provincial Police may want to see the rules changed, but for the moment suspended police officers continue to draw salaries \u2013 even if that puts them on the Sunshine List.\nThat\u2019s how a spokeswoman for the OPP\u2019s East Region summed up the situation Tuesday, following last week\u2019s release of the province\u2019s public sector salary disclosure list.\n\u201cAny time an officer is suspended, they will be suspended with pay,\u201d said Acting Sgt. Angie Atkinson.\nThat\u2019s a requirement of Ontario\u2019s Police Services Act, added Atkinson.\nA suspended officer\u2019s pay will only be withdrawn if the individual is convicted of a crime and sentenced, she said.\nOntario is the only province in which such rules apply.\nThe Ontario government on Friday put out its latest list of employees paid $100,000 or more in 2016, a measure required under the Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act.\nMedia reports have suggested as many as 12 police officers across the province who figure in that latest Sunshine List earned their six digits while spending all or most of 2016 under suspension.\nThat includes Cst. George Duke, one of three Leeds County OPP officers charged in 2015 with various offences in connection with a broader investigation.\nThe list includes Duke as making $107,857.78 with $132.18 in taxable benefits.\nDuke, a 20-year veteran of the provincial police force, was arrested in October 2015 and charged with theft over $5,000, possession of property obtained by crime, breach of trust, unlawful possession of a restricted firearm, unsafe storage of a firearm and ammunition, possession of a firearm without a licence and possession of an illegal drug.\nTwo other officers, David Vogelzang and Jason Redmond, were also arrested as a result of an 18-month investigation that began in May 2014.\nRedmond is charged with obstructing justice, three counts of trafficking marijuana, one count of forgery and one count of breach of trust while Vogelzang has been charged with obstruction of justice.\nNone of the charges have been proven in court.\nDuke is expected to face trial in September, while the matters of the other two accused \u2013 whose names do not appear on the Sunshine List \u2013 are to be spoken to in court later this week, according to court staff in Brockville.\nWhile the wheels of the criminal justice system continue their slow movement in these cases, the officers continue to draw full salary.\nShortly after the officers were charged, the OPP\u2019s East Region commander at the time, Chief Superintendent Daniel Redmond, said he supported efforts by the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police to get the province to open up the act and allow supervisory officers to suspend officers without pay in serious cases.\nMore recently, a survey conducted in early February by the Ontario Association of Police Services Boards showed unanimous support to a proposed change giving police chiefs more freedom to suspend officers who have been accused of serious misconduct without pay.\nhttp://www.recorder.ca/2017/04/04/suspe ... shine-list",

        "title": "What to be aware of when buying off the plan | Our Mortgage Options",
        "raw_content": "by Alex Sperling | Apr 12, 2016 | Off the Plan | 0 comments\nThe rise of new apartment developments in our cities provides greater opportunities for potential\nhome owners to buy off the plan. There are benefits to this, but also a number of things to be\nmindful of. We look at some of the things to consider when buying off the plan.\nA major benefit of purchasing off the plan is that you\u2019ll own a brand new property. There are also financial benefits. For example, you\u2019ll have the security of knowing how much you\u2019ll pay for the property in the future, even if its value increases. Construction usually takes a year or two, so there\u2019s time to save before you settle.\nIf you need to borrow money for the deposit, speak to your broker about how to best structure the purchase. Most home loan lenders won\u2019t approve a loan for a long settlement period, but a broker can provide advice about what assurances you can get regarding the amount you may be able to borrow when it comes time to settle. Depending on which state or territory you\u2019re in, you may have access to stamp duty and tax concessions, or government grants. If you\u2019re purchasing the property as an investment you may also be eligible for tax benefits. You should consult with your accountant for personal financial advice specific to your circumstances.\nOff-the-plan contracts try to cover future issues. Check that certain scenarios, such as construction delays or if you want to withdraw, are clearly addressed. Once the building is complete it might not meet your expectations. Speak to a legal advisor before signing the contract to avoid any surprises. Find out whether the developer has taken out home warranty insurance. Depending on the relevant state or territory laws, builders may be required to include a certificate of insurance in the contract. Even if this isn\u2019t the case, you can ask the developer for proof of insurance before you settle. Your broker or home loan lender may help with this as part of the lending process.\nThe property might be everything you dreamed of, but there\u2019s always a risk the market may have changed by the time you settle. While you can\u2019t avoid this, you should do some homework before you buy. For example, look at properties being built in the area to work out if there\u2019s likely to be an oversupply. Some lenders may look at the value of your property, rather than what was paid for it when considering how much they will lend you. It\u2019s worth speaking to your broker about how your property may be valued and what your home loan options are.\nBy exercising a little due diligence you can minimise the risks and reap the benefits of buying off the plan.",

        "raw_content": "Home Customers & Industries Kennecott Utah Copper\nCustomers & Industries: Kennecott Utah Copper\n@RISK Aids Great Salt Lake Wetlands Clean-Up\nIndustry: Mining, Environment\nEcological modeler Dr. John Toll was engaged by Kennecott Utah Copper to study environmental impacts of selenium. The study, which included models in @RISK, lead to corrective actions to protect wildlife.\nThanks to @RISK, our findings were more accurate, which led to effective measures to improve wetland water quality. We successfully demonstrated a practical way to rigorously combine landscape data, a regional bioaccumulation model, and site-specific chemical concentration data to study population-level chemical exposures.\nDr. John Toll, Ecological Modeler\nWith over 2,000 acres along the shores of the Great Salt Lake, the Kennecott Southshore Wetlands is an important habitat for migratory shorebirds and waterfowl. Kennecott Utah Copper, the second largest copper producer in the United States, wants the wetlands to remains vital.\nConcerns over high levels of selenium in the wetlands led Kennecott Utah Copper to engage ecological modeler Dr. John Toll and a team of wildlife and toxicology experts in an ecological risk assessment study. The study\u2019s objective was to estimate the impact of selenium on birds in the area and determine the proportion of the nesting bird population potentially at risk from selenium exposure.\n@RISK Used to Assess Wildlife Exposure to Selenium\nWetland birds such as the black-necked stilt and American avocet are exposed to selenium through their primary food source: aquatic macroinvertebrates. High exposure can result in reduced reproduction rates and physical deformities. According to Dr. Toll, \u201cWe decided to conduct a site-specific, probabilistic exposure assessment to estimate how much selenium was getting into bird eggs, so that we could determine whether and to what extent the birds were at risk, and if so, how to remedy the situation. It was also important to make the best possible use of egg selenium concentration data in order to minimize the number of eggs needed for the study, because measuring egg selenium requires destructive sampling.\u201d\nThe team started with extensive sampling of aquatic macroinvertebrates to characterize selenium concentrations across the wetlands. Palisade\u2019s BestFit was used to match the collected data to a representative probability distribution function. @RISK was then used to multiply the selenium concentration distribution function by a probabilistic trophic transfer factor (TTF). The TTF is a bioaccumulation model created using BestFit and data collected from around the western United States by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. The probabilistic TTF models the movement of selenium from macroinvertebrates to eggs.\nThe @RISK and BestFit modeling produced spatially distributed egg selenium concentration predictions. That model was calibrated by Bayesian Monte Carlo analysis, using a small number of site-specific egg samples and observed nest location data. According to Dr. Toll, \u201cWe used @RISK\u2019s Monte Carlo analysis to account for uncertainty in food and egg selenium concentration observations due to sampling and measurement error, and uncertainty in bioaccumulation predictions from site-to-site variability.\u201d\n@RISK Credited with Accuracy and Wildlife Preservation\nHow important was @RISK and BestFit to the project? Because of the probabilistic modeling conducted with @RISK and BestFit, the team was able to obtain exposure estimates of a reliability that otherwise would have required considerably more destructive egg sampling to overcome the imprecision of non site-specific bioaccumulation estimates. \u201cThanks to @RISK, our findings were more accurate, which led to effective measures to improve wetland water quality\u201d stated Dr. Toll. He continues, \u201cWe successfully demonstrated a practical way to rigorously combine landscape data, a regional bioaccumulation model, and site-specific chemical concentration data to study population-level chemical exposures.\u201d\nBetter Water Quality Criteria and a New Sanctuary\nA number of significant outcomes resulted from the study. First, the study quantified effects of selenium on the bird population in the area and led to corrective actions implemented by Kennecott Utah Copper. Second, it led to the development of a model that can be used to implement EPA\u2019s newly proposed selenium water quality criterion. The proposed criterion is a tissue concentration that serves as an indicator of water quality concerns. EPA (1) has stated that \u201cwhere translation from the tissue benchmark to a water concentration is needed, a bioaccumulation factor (BAF), which may vary substantially from site to site, would need to be established.\u201d The Kennecott study paved the way for the development of a site-specific bioaccumulation model that performs that translation (2, 3).\nAs part of its commitment to environmental stewardship, Kennecott Utah Copper also has created the 3,670-acre Inland Sea Shorebird Reserve on the south shore of the Great Salt Lake. The wetland and associated upland communities provide important feeding, staging (resting), and breeding habitats to migratory waterbirds. The Reserve now attracts about 150,000 migratory shorebirds and waterfowl each year, and provides habitat for many other wildlife species.",

        "raw_content": "\u2190 The First Edition of the British Cabinet Manual Is Now Available\nThe Liberals Adopt Primaries for Selecting Next Leader? \u2192\nThe Harper Government\u2019s Senate Reform Bill (C-7) and Its Implications on Crown Prerogative and Responsible Government\nSince the 39th Parliament, the Harper government has tried and failed to pass bills that would limit the tenure of Senators to somewhere between 8 and 12 years and provide a legislative framework for provincial senatorial elections along the lines of Alberta\u2019s Senatorial Selection Act that would form the basis of the governor general\u2019s appointment of new senators on the advice of the prime minister. As LegisInfo shows, the Harper government introduced these two bills fully seven times previously in the 39th and 40th Parliaments. After forming a majority government in the 41st Parliament, the Harper government then introduced these two bills as one omnibus bill, Bill C-7, The Senate Reform Act. Given that the Conservatives have finally achieved a majority in the Senate, the bill will probably pass. I shall examine the two parts of Bill C-7 and analyze their implications on both the crown prerogative and bicameralism (and therefore also to responsible government).\nI consider both parts of the omnibus bill constitutional in principle because they fall within Section 44 of the Constitution Act, 1982, the amending formula by which the Parliament of Canada alone may amend the parts of the constitution that fall exclusively within its jurisdiction. However, the current language of this bill presents several problems, and I have some reservations in particular about the establishment of provincial senatorial elections.\nThe Limitation of Senatorial Tenure\nI consider this portion of the omnibus bill acceptable, with no real constitutional or political implications. This part of Bill C-7 would limit the tenure of each senator to \u201cone term of nine years.\u201d This provision would merely codify the status quo: as Jack Stilborn notes on page 10 of his report \u201cSenate Reform: Issues and Recent Developments\u201d, the average tenure of senators (since 1975) is 9.7 years. This provision would therefore not alter the essential character of the Senate of Canada. However, section 29 paragraph 2 slyly codifies the bad precedent that PM Harper set earlier this year by re-appointing Fabian Manning and appointing Josee Verner to the Senate after they lost their respective constituencies in the 41st federal election: \u201cSubject to sections 29A to 31, a person referred to in subsection (1) whose term is interrupted may be summoned against to fill the remainder of the term.\u201d\nIn addition, section 4 of this legislation would delineate between PM Harper\u2019s nominees and all the other senators. This provision would grandfather in all the senators appointed before 14 October 2008 such that they face no term limits and would retire at the mandatory retirement age of 75, but it would impose the limit of nine years on the senators whom Harper nominated after the coming into force of this legislation. (It would not make their term limit of these senators retroactive to 14 October 2008). This provision could pose some constitutional difficulties.\nResponsible Government and the Appointment of Senators Nominated in Provincial Elections\nThe Legislative Assembly of Alberta passed the Senatorial Selection Act in the 1980s, and the province held its first senatorial election on 16 October 1989. Stanley Waters won that election under the Reform Party banner, and PM Mulroney agreed to nominate him to the Senate of Canada in 1990 because of his commitment to the impending Charlottetown Accord, which would have turned the Senate into an elective chamber. Contrary to all the short-sighted media coverage at the time, PM Harper nominated Bert Brown on 10 July 2007 as the second democratically-selected senator.\nBill C-7 used the Albertan legislation as a model and encourages, though does not require, all the other provinces and territories to follow suit. This part of the bill attempts to circumvent the normal process of constitutional amendment, because converting the Senate of Canada into a proper elective chamber would require the 7/50 amending formula \u2013 which almost certainly would not happen under the current political climate.\nThe Harper government\u2019s current proposals risks the creation of a peculiar type of deadlock rooted not in the written constitution and inherent bicameral institutional arrangement, but in the form of the new conventions on the use of the prime minister\u2019s prerogative and on the relationship between the House of Commons and the Senate that would almost certainly arise. Unfortunately, based on the exchange between my friend Nick MacDonald and the Minister of State for Democratic Reform at the Canadian Study of Parliament Group\u2019s event a few weeks ago (the same one where Paul Dewar dodged my constitutional question!), I am not confident that the Harper government has fully considered the constitutional and conventional implications that this bill will entail. It is clearly designed as a stepping stone toward a formal constitutional amendment for an elective Senate (which I would support if it met my criteria contained in this blog), but I worry that in the meantime, this bill will complicate and strain the relationship between the two houses and turn the semi-elective Senate into a de facto confidence chamber.\nThe legislation would in effect create two classes of senators, and those nominated after winning a provincial senatorial election would surely consider themselves more democratically legitimate than their colleagues who were appointed before the coming into force of this legislation. With democratic legitimacy comes the emboldened will to oppose legislation emanating from the House \u2014 and the Senate of Canada still, by the Constitution Act, 1867, may exercise all the same powers as the House (apart from the introduction of money bills) and could therefore block supply. The Senate isn\u2019t likely to do so under the Harper government, but it might if the New Democrats ever form government, because that party does not officially recognize New Democrats as senators and favours the outright abolition of the Senate of Canada.\nThe conventional implications of this bill could also result in deadlock between the two Houses to the extent that Canadians may oppose a properly elective upper chamber.\nCrown Prerogative and the Appointment of Senators Nominated in Provincial Elections\nThe Harper government adopted the tactic of effectively amending the constitution without truly amending, or \u201copening\u201d, it by adding the fixed-election date to the Canada Elections Act. It will adopt the same tactic with Bill C-7, The Senate Reform Act. I would argue that substantial, binding constitutional amendment that formally limits any part of crown prerogative \u2013 whether on the appointment of senators or judges, or the summoning, prorogation, or dissolution of parliament, or the prerogative of war and diplomacy, etc. \u2013 would fall under Section 41 (a) of the Constitution Act, 1982 (\u201cthe Office of the Queen, Governor General and Lieutenant Governor of a province\u201d) and thus require the unanimous consent of the Parliament of Canada and all 10 legislative assemblies. Therefore, the only method of absolutely curtailing any aspect of crown prerogative involves codifying such restrictions in the written constitution, because the governor general makes these appointments (by constitutional convention only on the advice of the prime minister).\nAs I explained in a previous post, that legislation implemented a novel, even paradoxical, concept: the use of codification that preserves the formal legal powers of crown prerogative as a means of forcing the creation of a new convention of how the prime minister should voluntarily restrict his application of crown prerogative. Section 52 of the Canada Elections Act establishes fixed-elections every fourth October, but codifies the current legal power of crown prorogation by inserting this phrase: \u201cNothing in this section affects the powers of the Governor General, including the power to dissolve Parliament at the Governor General\u2019s discretion.\u201d The legislation thus forces the creation of a new convention that the prime minister will restraint his use the crown prerogative to the confines of the act. This is precisely why the prime minister can, constitutionally and legally,still disregard the legislative provision.\nPart I, \u201cSenatorial Selection\u201d, section 3 states that \u201cIf a province or territory has enacted legislation that is substantially in accordance with the framework set out in the schedule, the Prime Minister, in recommending Senate nominees to the Governor General, must consider names from the most current list of Senate nominees selected for that province or territory.\u201d The phrase \u201cmust consider\u201d codifies the idea that the prime minister will voluntarily restrain his crown prerogative of advising the governor general to appoint only the winners of the provincial senatorial elections; however, it does not codify any substantial constitutional limitation on crown prerogative. \u201cMust consider\u201d does not mean \u201cmust nominate.\u201d\nThis is why a new convention, similar to that of the proper exercise of crown prerogative on dissolution and fixed-elections, would need to develop in order to reconcile the provincial senatorial elections contained in Bill C-7, The Senate Reform Act and its preservation of the prime minister\u2019s crown prerogative to advise the governor general to make appointments to the senate, because upholding those provisions of the act are politically enforceable, not legally enforceable. The legislation would, in effect, suggest that the prime minister place voluntary limits on his crown prerogative such that he advises the governor general to appoint only those who won their respective provincial senatorial elections. However, the prime minister could still legally and constitutionally advise the governor general to appoint whomever he sees fit and disregard the results the provincial senatorial election. More than likely, the provisions of this bill would entail the creation of a new convention, and if a future prime minister broke with that convention and advised the governor general to appoint someone other than the winner of a provincial senatorial election, he would face grave political consequences.\nWhich Amending Formula Applies to the Senate? It Depends\u2026\nThe Queen\u2019s Proclamation of the Constitution Act, 1982\nOur written constitution is complicated. Unlike Australia\u2019s written constitution, which has only one amending formula (a referendum that must receive the support of the majority of Australians from a majority of the States), the Constitution Act, 1982 contains five amending formulas (sections 41, 42, 43, 44, and 45). Section 41 requires the unanimous consent of the Parliament of Canada and all 10 provincial legislatures, and Section 42, the \u201cgeneral amending formula\u201d requires the support of the Parliament of Canada and 7 provincial legislatures representing at least 50% of the population, though the Regional Veto Act has increased that threshold. These two amending formulas have never been used successfully on anything of significance because of the political difficulties of attaining those high thresholds. That\u2019s why you\u2019ll hear the media and elected officials caution against \u201creopening the constitution.\u201d Section 43 applies to one or more, but not all, of the provinces such that the Parliament of Canada and the relevant provincial legislatures must give their consent. Section 44 allows the Parliament of Canada to \u201cexclusively make laws amending the Constitution of Canada in relation to the executive government of Canada or the Senate and House of Commons.\u201d And Section 45 allows \u201cthe legislature of each province may exclusively make laws amending the constitution of the province.\u201d\nNow let\u2019s turn to the Senate. This Bill C-7, An Act respecting the selection of senators and amending the Constitution Act, 1867 in respect of Senate term limits is in fact a constitutional amendment that the Government of Canada has tabled under Section 44. But some aspects of the Senate fall under Sections 41 and 42! The \u201cpowers of the Senate and the method of selecting Senators\u201d and \u201cthe number of members by which a province is entitled to be represented in the Senate and the residence qualifications of Senators\u201d fall under Section 42, the general amending formula. And the \u201cSenate Floor Rule\u201d (\u201cthe right of a province to a number of members in the House of Commons not less than the number of Senators by which the province is entitled to be represented\u201d) falls under Section 41, the unanimity formula.\nThus the Senate of Canada as a whole falls under three amending formulas, depending on how the amendment affects the Senate. Bill C-7 changes neither the powers of the Senate nor the number of senators from each province, so it does not fall under Section 42. And Bill C-7 also leaves the Senate Floor Rule intact, so it steers clear of Section 41 as well. The provisions of Bill C-7 apply to Section 44 \u2014 but not without political consequences.\nAs I said in the introduction, I think that the two provisions contained in Bill C-7 fall under Section 44 in principle, but the current wording will pose some constitutional difficulties relating to crown prerogative and unwritten convention and to the relationship between the two Houses. I say \u201cwill pose\u201d because the Conservatives hold majorities in both the House and the Senate, so this bill will surely pass, and because this bill will entrench in the written constitution the conundrum of crown prerogative and unwritten convention. And I say \u201cdifficulties\u201d because anything that appears in the written constitution is obviously constitutional, even though different sections of the written constitution can come into conflict or generate political friction.\nI suggested a general outline for an elective Senate in a previous post, and I discussed the implications of an elective Senate on responsible government in another, and the proposals for Senate reform from 1867 to 1913 in yet another. But repetition is emphasis, as they say.\nIn order to determine the true purpose of bicameralism, we should look to the former Legislative Councils in the Canadian provinces and the current Legislative Councils of the Australian states, since the \u201cfederal question\u201d simply does not exist in the provincial legislatures or state parliaments (the Aussies do call their state assemblies \u201cparliaments\u201d as well). Clearly at the provincial or state level, the upper chamber functions as a house of review, or what we commonly call in Canada the chamber of \u201csober second thought.\u201d They cannot possibly fulfill a federative function. Then this arrangement brings up the question of redundancy of the proponents of the appointive Senate: what is the purpose of two elective chambers? I would respond that two elective chambers that both elect their members on the basis of single-member plurality is indeed redundant. The old Legislative Council of the United Province of Canada (1856 to 1867) proves that point, and I would argue that the state senates in America continue to prove that point today. But since only the lower house determines which party or parties form government, the upper house can dispense entirely with these considerations of stability and government formation and focus on an electoral system that best secures its proper function as a house of review. Most of the Australian Legislative Councils are elected on the basis of proportionate representation, like the Senate of Australia, which normally results in a different partisan composition instead of merely doubling the scale of the constituencies and replicating the makeup of the lower house.\nUltimately, I would prefer an elective Senate possessing powers similar to those of the current House of Lords so that it would act primarily as a house of review, but not as an obstruction and constitutional threat to responsible government, and certainly not as a house of the provinces. The proponents of the current appointive Senate raise valid concerns about the threat of deadlock between two elective chambers. That is why I support an elective senate limited, like the House of Lords, to a suspensive veto over money bills. The Australian Senate precipitated a significant constitutional crisis in 1975 precisely because it wields too much power over supply bills. The combination of an election, like the Australian Senate with powers limited to a suspensive veto and delay, like the British House of Lords, would result in a true house of review that could provide a healthy check on governments (which necessarily derive from the lower house) without becoming a de facto confidence chamber. This elective upper chamber would become a respected, measured, democratically legitimate addition to the Crown-in-Parliament without harming the principle of responsible government in the lower house.\nFixed-Elections: Harper Did Not Break His Own Law\nThe History of Senate Reform, 1867-1913\nThis entry was posted in Crown (Powers and Office), Prime Minister's Powers, Responsible Government, Senate Reform and tagged 7/50 Formula, Bert Brown, Canadian Study of Parliament Group, Legislative Council, s.41(a), Stanley Waters, The Dismissal of 1975.

Bowden\nPingback: From Leader to Laggard in Elective Upper Houses: Canada\u2019s Elective Legislative Council, 1856-1867 | By James W.J. Bowden\nPingback: Senate Reform and Responsible Government | Parliamentum, by James W.J. Bowden\nGood post! Given your reference to the House of Lords it\u2019s interesting to see the differences in approach taken by the two governments to upper house reform. Both are attempting to elect the upper houses but have made motions about compromising on the details because of the politics. Stephen Harper has already published his bill and it\u2019s had its second reading despite rumours of some Conservative Senators being distinctly unhappy about it (albeit with some discussion on a compromise for the term length). David Cameron\u2019s pushed it into the long grass and is almost abdicating responsibility for the details with a joint committee scrutinising a draft bill with the government open to lots of changes. It won\u2019t even be introduced until at least mid-2012.\nThe responses are also quite revealing \u2013 the House of Lords has their own, more limited, bill on reform which it presumably wants to use as a bargaining chip whereas the Senate seems to be concerned more with altering (potentially even defeating?) the bill in front of them.\nThanks, Len.\nI\u2019m so glad that you mentioned the Cameron government\u2019s draft bill on Lords reform because I\u2019m going to write a little entry on that issue shortly as well! That bill would create a properly elected chamber, but I was amused to see that the draft bill insists that for the time being, this radically altered upper house would still cling to its current name. The concept of an \u201celected Lord\u201d is an inherently contradiction in terms. But as you say, being a draft brill, it is subject to significant changes \u2014 or perhaps may never be formally tabled.\nPatrick Baud says:\nI disagree with you that section 42 (specifically subsection 42(1)(b)) doesn\u2019t apply.\nWhile the Senate Reform Act does not change the powers of the Senate, it certainly changes \u201cthe method of selecting Senators\u201d. While the procedure at the federal level does not change, as the prime minister suggests that the governor general appoint someone to fill a Senate vacancy, the addition of the provincial election procedure would effectively make the Senate (partially) elected, thus changing the selection method.\nThis is especially true if one applies that Upper House Reference to this matter, which prevents \u201cParliament\u2026[from making] alterations which would affect the fundamental features, or essential characteristics, given to the Senate as a means of ensuring regional and provincial representation in the federal legislative process\u201d. Even if Bill C-7 results in only a partially elected Senate, this would still affect the fundamental features and essential characteristics of the Senate, namely that it is not elected.\nI was going to address the Upper Chamber Reference in this post, but I decided against it because the SCC delivered the Upper Chamber Reference before patriation. I would therefore argue that the Upper Chamber Reference is of questionable value today.\nBill C-7 does not change \u201cthe method of selection\u201d because the governor general still appoints senators on the advice of the prime minister.\nThe amendment of our Constitution is hard to understand not just because we have 5 amending formulas but because it\u2019s so hard to determine which formula applies to a particular case. You argue that the current Senate reform bill, C-7, falls under section 44, amendment by Parliament alone. Patrick Baud disagrees, saying that paragraph 42(1)(b) is affected, which requires the 7/50 amendment formula. Only the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) can say for sure.\nMy personal opinion is that the part of Bill C-7 that depends on provincial legislation for the election of Senate \u201cnominees\u201d is problematic because such provincial legislation (including the Alberta\u2019s Senatorial Selection Act) is ultra vires the provincial legislature because it doesn\u2019t fall within any of the categories in section 92 of the Constitution Act, 1867, any other section of that Act, or under the provincial power to amend their own\nconstitutions. Is the SCC were to say that\u2013and Bill C-7 will be challenged all the way to the SCC after it\u2019s enacted\u2013then that part of the Senate Reform bill would be a nullity.\nThe other part of Bill C-7 provides for a 9-year term for senators appointed after a specified date. I tend to agree with you that section 44 (amendment by Parliament alone) does allow Parliament to set a specific term for future senators. There are those, however, who argue convincingly that the Constitution Act, 1982, does not entirely cover all the fundamental characteristics of the Senate in sections 41 (Senate floor) and 42 (powers and method of selection), i.e. that there may be other features of the Senate that require 7/50 and can\u2019t be amended under s. 44. Only the SCC can say whether their judgment in the Upper House Reference is still applicable in some respects.\nThe major reason for thinking that Bill C-7 may be unconstitutional is, as Baud notes, the fact that it deals with the \u201cmethod of selecting senators\u201d. James Ross Hurley, in his book Amending Canada\u2019s Constitution (1996), says at page 82, \u201cAn attempt to replace the fixed age for retirement with a fixed mandate of, let us say, ten years might constitute a change in the method of selecting senators\u201d. Since Bill C-7 contains a part dealing with provincial election of Senate nominees, the SCC may well find that the pith and substance of Bill C-7 is to change the method of selecting senators.\nOne final point about \u201cselecting\u201d senators. The Bill\u2019s supporters keep saying it would not change the way senators are actually appointed (viz. by being summoned by the Governor General). But \u201cselecting\u201d is more than just \u201csummoning\u201d or \u201cappointing\u201d. The method of selecting senators may be changed even though they are still summoned by the GG on the advice of the Prime Minister.\nI disagree that the \u201cselection of Senators\u201d in the written constitution encompasses more than the prime ministerial nomination and the gubernatorial appointment. I suspect that the drafters choose that word \u201cselection\u201d in order to take into account the possibility that the Senators would one day be elected in a proper manner, which would surely required a formal constitutional amendment.\nThis bill poses problems not so much for the selection of Senators but for the application of crown prerogative and the creation of new constitutional conventions on its use.",

        "raw_content": "PRRD expected to highlight renewed China-PH relations in 2nd SONA\nBEIJING-- A renewed China-Philippines relations is one of the accomplishments that President Rodrigo Roa Duterte is expected to highlight in his second state-of-the-nation-address (SONA) on Monday.\nTwo weeks after Duterte took his oath as the country's 16th President, the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) released a decision favoring the Philippines' arbitration case against China's nine-dash line claim that covers almost the whole area of disputed South China Sea.\nChina has rejected PCA's judgment which came out three years after former President Benigno Aquino III's administration filed the arbitration case amid China's reported massive reclamation in South China Sea.\nIn his first SONA, President Duterte said the Philippines strongly affirms its respect to the PCA ruling as an important contribution to the ongoing efforts to pursue the peaceful resolution and management of our disputes.\nLater in 2016, President Duterte has opted to temporarily shelve the PCA's verdict to allow resolution of the maritime disputes through friendly dialogues and negotiations.\nChina was pleased by Duterte's move, insisting that the maritime dispute should be settled in peaceful manner among claimant countries to maintain peace and economic stability in the region.\nPhilippines Ambassador to China Jose Santiago Sta. Romana explained that the Duterte administration has used a two-track approach to tackle South China Sea disputes with China.\n\"Instead of an approach putting the dispute at the center of the bilateral relations, the Duterte administration decided to separate into two tracks. The contentious issues on one track and non-contentious issues on another track, Sta. Romana said in a recent interview with group of Filipino journalists in Beijing.\nThe contentious issues, he said, are the issues of sovereignty and maritime jurisdiction including China's nine-dash line while non-contentious issues are trade, economic, infrastructures and people-to-people exchanges.\n\"The non-contentious issues were frozen on the past years because the dispute has been put at the center. The basic approach now is don't let the dispute be an obstacle to developing the non-contentious issues, he explained.\nTrue enough, the dual-track approach has rejuvenated China-Philippines relations, leading to President Duterte's two productive visits to China upon the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping.\nIn his first visit in October last year, President Duterte brought home USD 24 billion worth of investment pledges and infrastructure projects.\nAt the sideline of the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation last May in Beijing, President Duterte witnessed the signing of agreement for China's RMB500 million grant to the Philippines to conduct feasibility studies for major projects, construction of the drug abuse treatment and rehabilitation center and bridges crossing the Pasig River and other projects agreed by both sides.\n\"Aside from two bridges are three projects and these are Chico River irrigation project for farmers, Kaliwa Dam for water supply in Metro Manila and the South line railway from Laguna to Bicol, Sta. Romana said.\nHe is hoping that the two bridges along Pasig River and the three other infrastructure projects where China will invest USD 3.5 billion will be launched within this year.\nSta. Romana said the Mindanao railway section in Davao along with a long bridge from Panay Island via Negros to Guimaras Island will hopefully start next year.\nThe improved China-Philippines relations had also prompted China to lift restrictions on the import of bananas and pineapples from the Philippines.\nChina is also interested in increasing its imports of mangoes, coconut and dragon fruits as well as crabs, shrimps, prawns, tuna and lapu-lapu from the Philippines.\nIn the field of tourism, Sta. Romana said the Philippines is now on the right track of achieving one million Chinese tourist arrivals this year while China is contemplating to hire more Filipino English teachers.\nDuring DFA Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano's visit early this month in Beijing, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi promised that China will continue to support the Philippines in its fight against terrorism and he said: China will not hesitate in extending its helping hand to its close neighbor.\nChina has donated thousands of guns worth USD7.35 million to the Philippines to help the military in its battle against terrorists, including Islamist gunmen in conflict-torn Marawi City.\nWang said since the revival of the China-Philippines relations in October last year, the two countries have signed 22 cooperation agreements in areas of infrastructures, commerce, trade, and agriculture.\nLast July 12 during the first anniversary of the PCA's judgment, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) reaffirmed its commitment to resolve the South China Sea dispute in a manner consistent with the spirit of good neighborly relations.\n\"President Duterte's priority of regional peace and stability has led to the healthy environment of dialogue, cooperation, and development,\" said in a DFA statement.\n\"The Philippines shall remain an enemy to none and a friend to all in its pursuit of economic and political benefits for the country, including the long-term security and stability in the region,\" it added.\nDuring their bilateral talks in Beijing in October 2016, Presidents Xi and Duterte reached a consensus to form Bilateral Consultation Mechanism (BCM) on the South China Sea or West Philippine Sea.\nSeven months later, the 1st Meeting of the China-Philippines BCM on the South China Sea was finally held in Guiyang, China. The next BCM meeting was set later this year in Manila.\nSta. Romana has described the Guiyang's BCM meeting as excellent where the Philippines team which he led was able to discuss almost all contentious issues of South China Sea with the Chinese delegates headed by Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Liu Zhenmin.\nHe said the basic direction of the BCM is to try to stabilize the situation and develop trust and confidence between China and the Philippines.\nThe Filipino envoy believes that pursuing President Duterte's independent foreign policy \"will redound to the greater number of Filipinos\".\n\"Our goal is to advance the Philippines' national interest, the goal is to have friendship with all countries and to avoid conflict with any country. At least we were able to talk about it in amicable and civil manner now, he added.",

        "raw_content": "Reliance might earn Rs 18,675 Crores from Jio Prime Membership in the coming year\nFebruary 24, 2017 Karthik Iyer Telecom News\nReliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani addressed the media a couple of days back, where he announced that the company has successfully crossed the 100 million subscribers mark within 6 months. This by itself is a huge achievement for the company. Apart from that, Mukesh Ambani also announced a bunch of incentives to the existing Jio users who trusted the network and helped them grow. He announced the Jio Prime Membership which is an exclusive membership plan for the Jio users. Also, if you don\u2019t have a Jio SIM yet, then you can get one before March 31st, 2017 and enroll for the same.\nUnder the Jio Prime Membership, users will get all the benefits of the Jio Happy New Offer until March 31st of 2018. In order to be a part of this and take advantage of it, users will have to pay a fee of Rs. 99 post which they can take advantage of the benefits by paying a monthly fee of Rs. 303. The Jio Prime Membership will also allow users to use all the Jio apps free for another year, which is a bonus. So essentially users will get 1GB of data per day for as low as Rs. 10 which is by far the best value for money tariff plan.\nPOLL: Will you signup for the Reliance Jio Prime service at Rs 303 per month? It offers you 30GB / month data & unlimited calls. Do Retweet.\n\u2014 PhoneRadar (@phoneradarblog) February 21, 2017\nHaving said that, it is now time to analyze the facts here and see what\u2019s in it for Reliance. We don\u2019t have a lot of companies coming daily and offer 1GB of data for just Rs. 10 every day. So we decided to do a quick math for all of you and show how much money Reliance can actually make from this. Do make a note that the numbers which you are about to see here are just an estimate based on an assumption. Hence we suggest you take it as it is and don\u2019t come to any conclusion just yet. Eventually, we have to wait for the official numbers if and when Reliance decides to share it.\nFirstly, one of the things which is very clear to us is the fact that we have 100 million Jio users on board till date. Although there are so many users on board the service, it is expected that most of them will not enroll for the prime membership and continue to use the services offered by Jio. Now, this could very well be due to a lot of reasons which we are not here to discuss. For the sake of this calculation and give you an estimate, let\u2019s assume that 50-percent of the users end up enrolling for the Jio Prime membership. That brings us to a number of 5 crore users.\nNow assuming that 5 crore users end up enrolling for the Prime Membership by paying Rs. 99, it gives us \u2013\n(5 crore users X Rs 99) = Rs 495 crore\nThe 495 crore is the amount which Reliance Jio will earn only through the Prime Membership (if 50-percent of the users enroll). It is definitely a lot of money, but if you think that\u2019s it, then you should stick around till we calculate the money which they might earn when those users pay monthly fees as well. Having said that, now let\u2019s assume that all the 5 crore users will pay the monthly fees of Rs. 303 every single month till March 31st, 2018, calculating that should give us a total amount which they might make in the coming year with the monthly fees.\nFor that, let\u2019s see the yearly earning from all these 5 crore users \u2013\n(Rs. 303 * 12 months* 5 crore users) = Rs. 18,180 crore.\nWell, if all the 5 crore people will pay the monthly fees which is Rs. 303, then Reliance will earn Rs. 18,180 crore only through the monthly fees of Rs. 303. Yes, the calculation is definitely going out of hand, but we suggest you stick around till the end to see what we are dealing with here.\nNow to finally put things into perspective, let\u2019s sum it up and see what could be the total earning of Reliance Jio in coming year \u2013\nRs. 18,180 crore + Rs. 495 crore = Rs. 18,675 crore\nReliance Jio might be earning about Rs. 18,675 crore in the coming year, if around 5 crore users out of the total 10 crore users enroll for the Jio Prime service and pay Rs. 303 per month till March 31st of 2018. It is definitely a lot of money but when it comes down to the individual user, paying Rs. 303 per month is not a bad deal at all since you are getting 30GB of data technically. Do not forget that there might be a good percentage of users who might also top-up their SIM while being in the Prime Membership for additional data & this could account to additional revenues for reliance. Also this calculation is for Prime Members while there might be millions who would directly opt for the prepaid options that we had shared earlier bringing in reliance additional revenues.\nHaving said that, let us know what do you think about the company earning through this Prime Membership and also let us know if you think 5 crore people will enroll themselves or not. According to a poll which we did on Twitter, over 75-percent of our readers said that they would be enrolling for the Jio Prime Membership which is indeed quite impressive.

        "raw_content": "Mulan, Jr.\nMy 5th show at the Franklin Opera House was by far the most unique. Mulan, Jr. is a musical adaptation of Disney's Mulan (the film). This production included 125 kids and is one of two plays produced each year by the Franklin Area Children's Theater (FACT). Along with the kids were about 20 \"regulars\" from the Franklin Footlight Theater who perform the adult roles and guide the kids in what probably is their first theater experience. I was permitted to photograph the Thursday, August 5 performance, which sold out. All photos are shown in chronological order, except the first, which is the cast shot.\nThis is the official cast shot. I have much to learn about shooting groups, but I know one thing for now: I'm either pretty lucky or I can produce something under pressure. Not only do I have 145 people here on the stage, including 125 who don't want to sit still, but I have 200 or so behind me in the audience watching me as though this were a bonus portion of the show. Plus it's at least 80 degrees in here, and the sweat may have actually puddled around my feet if it had taken me any longer to get this shot. This was a possibility because my gear (including my ultra-wide lens) is upstairs in the balcony, which is unfortunate because the lens I have down here is not wide enough to capture the entire group all at once. (See photo #229.) Seven get chopped. Not good! The original plan was to shoot the group shot from the balcony, but those banners hanging down were decapitating people. It didn't help that my camera is mounted on what looked like a toy tripod. So I had a choice: Pretend to faint and hope that someone would drag my body outside, or keep my cool and carefully create a panorama (two images stitched together). Boy did I get lucky that Photoshop was able to handle this. Photoshop told me where the dividing line between the images is, but I can't see it. Yay! Many thanks to this remarkable cast that turned to stone when I needed them to. This is entirely ambient lighting, spot lights and stage lights, which is much stronger for the folks up front than it is in back. Lighting a group this size with flash is way beyond me right now, so to get even lighting would have meant dimming the front spots and dragging the shutter to brighten the rear. Plus this group has a lot of depth, which demands an aperture closer to f/8 to get everyone into crisp focus. Plus, you really want to avoid as much noise as possible, so it would be better with an ISO of 200. If we assume that the kids in back are 2 stops underexposed, we're talking a shutter speed of at least 5 seconds. No one could sit perfectly still that long! I love that I can see Ms. Finley asking the Huns to be quiet!\nPre-play shots. The children are scattered about the various rooms that make up the basement of the Franklin Opera House.\nThis is the warmup room.\nThis is a panorama of two shots. My practicing this was fortuitous!\nAs I was walking by, this guy grabbed me. \"Take a picture of me like this.\" I love that children aren't afraid of the camera.\nOne of my favorite shots of the night will be this girl, later on stage.",

Ben Melhuish \u2022 Thursday, July 3, 2014 \u2022 Squidliness\nAt a company I worked for ages ago, it was traditional for every new hire to introduce themselves at the next all-hands meeting.\nThere were no strict guidelines, but one new hire gave a particularly boring speech1 about his programming background \u2014 so filled with minutia that someone finally heckled \u201cwhat was your first computer?\u201d. The new guy paused, but gamely launched into a (long and boring) answer.\nNaturally, as a joke, the next hire got the same question, and the next one. But somehow the answers started to get a little interesting. We all (I\u2019m guessing) had strong memories of these exciting new devices that we\u2019d ended up basing our careers on, and hearing somebody else\u2019s helped us bond a little bit. By the time the company was effectively shut down, I looked forward to hearing each new co-worker\u2019s answer.\nThe first time I saw a computer was in kindergarten. Mr. Simpson, an upper-grade teacher, asked my teacher if she had any kids who\u2019d be interested in seeing one. Sure enough, she did, and so one day Mr. Simpson wheeled his Commodore PET (on an A/V cart) down to the hallway to show me. I still remember playing Frog! , which blew my little mind.\nBy third grade, we had all manner of computers around the school. My classroom had a teletype terminal for a while (complete with acoustic coupler)2; elsewhere in the school were a TRS-80 Model I and a few Model IIIs.\nIn fifth grade, my family bought a Commodore 64 (with a tape drive), which quickly became my domain. This was where I did my first real programming (often learning from the listings in Compute! and Compute!\u2019s Gazette magazines). Meanwhile, my best friend got an Apple IIe. By the time I graduated from high school, it and its peripherals had gradually been replaced such that we had a Commodore 128 with a disk drive and dedicated monitor. It wasn\u2019t a bad little machine for playing games and writing papers.\nWhen I went to college, I saved up and bought a Mac SE. That lasted all through college (though it was definitely showing its age my senior year; MultiFinder was incredibly unstable with 2 MB of RAM). After graduation, I basically retired it; I believe it\u2019s still in use as an aquarium. For the next few years I borrowed roommates\u2019 computers for internet access.\nSoon after Meghan and I started living together, she bought a new iBook, and I mooched off her computers for a while before finally getting the first-generation MacBook Pro, with a used PowerMac G4 Cube (onto which I jury-rigged Mac OS X Leopard3) as a server.\nThat old MacBook Pro is now the kids\u2019 hand-me-down (it still plays Minecraft just fine), and I\u2019m writing this today on one of the shiny new ones. And with the way touchscreen devices are changing how I use computers, this may be the last traditional computer I ever buy.\n1 I could be misremembering and/or misinterpreting this.\n2 Sue Pulford had a curriculum included The Hobbit and introduced me to Dungeons & Dragons . It\u2019s not an exaggeration to say that she was the single most influential teacher I\u2019ve ever had.\n3 I dropped into the firmware at startup and informed it that it was using a faster CPU than it really had; this was enough to get it past the pre-install system check.",

        "raw_content": "PM for the Masses Podcast: Introduction\nhttp://traffic.libsyn.com/pmforthemasses/PM4TM_000_-_Introduction.mp3\nAfter months of planning and preparation, I am so thrilled to launch the PM for the Masses Podcast.\nThe ribbon is officially cut!\nOn this episode \u201czero\u201d I introduce myself and tell you what this show is all about.\nI would love it if you would subscribe to the show in iTunes using this link.\nProject management has changed my life.\nI have been the project manager for our family business since 2005. For years I had the title of PM but didn\u2019t really know what it meant. I was taking care of our business\u2019 projects, making sure everything was being done according to the requirements, in a timely manner, within budget \u2013 you know the drill. I was basically doing my best to keep things moving forward.\nIn 2009 we were living the bottom of a recession. On top of that, my father, who was also my boss, had a massive stroke. I started to think that I should be prepared to take action in case our company would have to close. It was scary times, and I quickly realized that the service we provided was so unique, that my skill set would be hard to transfer to another job if the company didn\u2019t make it.\nSo I decided that I had to make myself more marketable. Just in case.\nI started to look into the profession of project management for the first time. I knew somewhere out there there were courses, certifications, some sort of collection of best practices, but that was about it.\nIt was only then that I learned about the Project Management Institute. I decided to start reading up on the PMBOK guide, or the Project Management Body of Knowledge, as well as some other companion books. I started to think, hey, I get this. So I decided to study for the PMP exam.\nSlowly but surely, my eyes started to open. I started to learn some basic things like the WBS (or work breakdown structure) and saw immediately that I could start using them in my work. I immediately started to see results at work. Finally I could rely on tested and proven ways to break down work, create schedules, collect requirements, communicate, etc, etc. My work started to get better. I started to be more reliable. I started to take more pride in what I did.\nBecause of the results I was seeing and the boost of confidence I got, I also started to look at our own company differently. I had always seen what I did as a job. I was now starting to get the entrepreneurial bug, and started to be more interested in working ON our business, not just in it.\nAnd the best thing is that now I had a lot more knowledge in Project Management. I was getting really good at getting things done on time, on budget, and within scope.\nMy personal life took a turn for the better as well.\nSee, I had always been a relatively smart kid, but really never accomplished much. I could never finish things I started, and was known for being smart but unreliable and without much desire to accomplish great things in life.\nI was just cruising.\nBut once I learned how to break projects down into manageable chunks, plan the work, and work the plan, all of a sudden I started to move forward. I started studying the art of personal productivity and became REALLY passionate about setting goals for myself and completing them.\nThat is why I say PM has changed my life.\nOur company made it. I got my PMP certification. My dad made pretty much a full recovery from his stroke. But best of all, I got clarity, a desire to keep moving forward, and a passion for PM and a passion for inspiring others to change their lives as well.\nThis is the motivation behind this podcast.\nWe already have what it takes.\nI truly believe that PMs are uniquely equipped individuals. In an increasingly complex yet superficial world in which we are forced to communicate in 140 characters at a time, PMs have the rare ability to go deep, to break complexity into comprehensive bits, to delegate, to see the big picture, to communicate effectively, and best of all, to see things to completion. Today, more than ever, this is a priceless skill set.\nThe PM for the Masses Podcast will inspire you, as a PM or aspiring PM, to make use of this skill set to move your life forward. You, more than any other professional, have what it takes to get that promotion, or to get a better job, or to open that consultancy business, or to write that book.\nBesides sharing my own journey, on the PM for the Masses podcast I will speak with other successful PMs \u2013 some names you may already know. I will ask them about their expertise and share it with you. But I will also ask them to share with us HOW they became the successful PM that they are. I will look at their success as a project, and will try to break it down so we can emulate and learn from their journey.\nOur lives, our careers, have a beginning and they have an end. They produce a unique result. Our lives are projects. We are the managers.\nI really want to inspire you to see this and take action to live life more intentionally, planning your work and working your plan. I want to inspire you to see that your career is truly in your hands, and as a PM you are uniquely equipped to make of it what you want.\nI also want to be my own guinea pig. As the host of the Construction Industry Podcast for the last couple of years, I realized that creating media and content is one of my strengths. With this podcast I am taking a bold step to rub shoulders with some of the most successful project managers in the world. I am totally stepping out of my comfort zone and using one of my strengths to stand out from the crowd. I want you to see what will happen to me and my career as I do this. I want to prove to you that when you find what your strength is, and use it in a smart way, wonderful things will start to happen. I have no idea what things will happen to me and my career as I embark on this journey, but I\u2019m absolutely sure they will be wonderful.\nAt the very least, I want this to be an inspiration to you.\nThe PM for the Masses Podcast will be mostly an interview type of show. I am going to bring you some of the top names in PM today and truly pick their brains. We will learn from them and also learn how they made it.\nThis Podcast series is a project \u2013 it will have a beginning and it will have an end. At this point I promise you 20 episodes. That is not to say I won\u2019t produce any more than that. If I see that the podcast is really popular and I\u2019m accomplish the goals I want to accomplish, I might continue further. We will see.\nI also need your input. Leave me a review in iTunes. Let me know what you\u2019d like to see on the show. Keep me honest. I\u2019m truly doing this to add value to our profession, and I want to make sure I\u2019m hitting the spot. The only way to find out is to hear from you.\nI really hope you enjoy this show.

        "raw_content": "Farmers market remains open at N\u00e1plavka\nConflicting information about the renovation work has left many confused\nThe farmers market at N\u00e1plavka on Ra\u0161\u00ednovo n\u00e1b\u0159e\u017e\u00ed will be operating on its normal schedule, despite planned work to renovate the cubicles in the retaining wall and improve infrastructure.\nThe marker is open on Saturdays from 8 am to 2 pm, except during winter.\nThe first renovation work at Ra\u0161\u00ednovo n\u00e1b\u0159e\u017e\u00ed, which began on April 16, concern the cubicles in the embankment wall. This work will not affect the Saturday markets\u2019 overall operation, according to the organizers.\n\u201cPlanned revitalization of N\u00e1plavka should not concern the farmers' markets, as the markets take place in an area that is not under renovation. There is no limitation on planned events. The closest is the festival of rose and claret wine, R\u016f\u017eov\u00fd m\u00e1j, which will be held between the Railway Bridge and the Vy\u0161ehrad Rock on May 19 from 10 am till 9 pm,\u201d said Jiri Sedlacek of the market operating company Archetyp.\nAccording to property management firm Trade Center Praha, there will be a small narrowing right at the entrance to the farmer's market, due to a 20 square meter construction site in front of one of the wall cubicles at the level where the markets begin. However, this will have no effect on the sales outlets or shoppers.\nPrague City Hall also assures the visitors to Ra\u0161\u00ednovo n\u00e1b\u0159e\u017e\u00ed there will be with minimal interruptions to normal life on the waterfront. \u201cThe restrictions concern only three businesses and only the wall cubicles and the smaller area in front of them. This means that the renovation will not effect of the visitors practically, and people will be able to use boats and attend classic events, such as the farmers' markets or the Prim\u00e1torky boat race,\u201d Prague City Hall spokesman V\u00edt Hofman said.\nThe farmers market at N\u00e1plavka, first held in 2010, has become a favorite spot for Prague residents and tourists. It offers fresh vegetables, fruit, meat, poultry, fish and other ingredients for cooking, as well as baked goods, prepared food and beverages. It is a member of the Asociace farm\u00e1\u0159sk\u00fdch tr\u017ei\u0161\u0165 \u010cR, an association that maintains a code of rules for organizing farmers markets.\nThe work that is finally beginning at Ra\u0161\u00ednovo n\u00e1b\u0159e\u017e\u00ed was approved in February 2017 but postponed due to technical delays.\nThe city says the area lacks the needed infrastructure such as benches, toilets and waste containers for the large crowds in the warm months.\nThe work at Ra\u0161\u00ednovo n\u00e1b\u0159e\u017e\u00ed will mainly concern the renovation of 12 cubicles set into the stone retaining walls under the upper-level street. Most of these rooms have long been disused and inaccessible to the general public. Some of the rooms will be turned into cafes and galleries. Other rooms will be turned into public bathrooms.\nOne of the users of the wall cubicles is not happy with the way the renovation work is scheduled, with the closures taking place in summer and not winter.\nThe bar and cafe Bajkazyl announced in early April over Facebook that it and similar establishments using cubicles had just been informed that it will have to be closed all season. \u201cWe are sorry, but unfortunately [the summer will be] without our cycling, music, theater, dance and children's programs,\u201d Bajkazyl\u2019s Facebook post said. They added that they do not know if they will be able to open next year after the renovations.\nBajkazyl caters to bike riders and offers some repair facilities as well. The name is a mix of bike and asylum.\nFor more information on the farmers market visit www.farmarsketrziste.cz.",

        "raw_content": "Blob library back on the table\nThe National Library is once again looking to expand\nThe Blob is back. The National Library system is again looking for a new place to expand to, as its current facility at the Klementinum is practically full. The widow of architect Jan Kaplick\u00fd is trying to revive interest in his unbuilt plan by offering it to the library for free.\nKaplick\u00fd's proposal won an architectural competition in 2006 and was supposed to be built on Letn\u00e1 plain, with a stated completion date of 2012.\nThe modern design was compared by the public and the media to a giant octopus and dubbed \u201cthe Blob.\u201d Leading politicians including then-president V\u00e1clav Klaus and Prague's then-mayor Pavel B\u00e9m were critical of the proposal. The plan was abandoned in 2008. Kaplick\u00fd died in January 2009. No other plan was ever put forward.\nThe library obtains about 100,000 new volumes each year. The books are now stored in the Klementinum, which is being renovated to increase its capacity, and in a storage facility in Hostiva\u0159. They should reach their capacity by 2044.\nMartin Kocanda was appointed a director of the National Library (NK) in May. He said he would like to see the historical parts of the Klementinum to continue to be used along with a new building.\nOne issue is that currently some 300,000 books per year are moved between the Klementinum and Hostiva\u0159, a 45 minute trip. A new location closer to the center would reduce the need for such trips, this saving time and costs, as well as making books more accessible.\nKaplick\u00fd's widow, Eli\u0161ka Kaplick\u00fd Fuchsov\u00e1 is still hopeful the Blob will be built. \u201cAs the copyright owner, I want to donate this project to the Czech Republic for free,\u201d Kaplick\u00fd Fuchsov\u00e1 said, according to daily Mlad\u00e1 fronta Dnes.\n\u201cIt would be a shame if the finances, the effort and the time spent on the project were unsuccessful,\u201d she added. There is still a valid permit for land use, she states.\nLibrary director Kocanda did not dismiss the idea, but he had some reservations. \u201cEverything is still in the thinking stage,\u201d he said.\nThere were many factors to consider, though, including how it fits in with the architecture of Prague and the availability of transportation.\nThe Prague Institute of Planning and Development (IPR) should be involved in selecting a suitable location, he added.\nIt is possible that once a new site is chosen and new conditions are set, another competition for a library design will be held.\nOne potential problem for reviving the plan to build the Blob is that it did not fulfill all the specifications of the original contest. The Court of Appeals decided in 2015 that the winning proposal should have been excluded for failure to comply with the competition conditions, and the Supreme Court upheld the decision. A total of K\u010d 3 million has to be paid to the losing architects to make up for the differences in prize money once the winner was excluded.\nThe Blob has made several appearances. A small version of its facade was incorporated into a bus stop in Brno and a video-mapping of its shape was projected onto a tent in 2015 during the Letn\u00ed Letn\u00e1 theater festival in Prague's Letn\u00e1 park, not far from the originally planned building site.",

        "raw_content": "Can Pinterest Be Used By Those In Private Practice And Non-Profits?\nI was initially interested in Pinterest for private practice because of the articles I read which indicated Pinterest was becoming a great tool for businesses, helping to drive traffic to their websites in record numbers. As I started reading more about how businesses were using Pinterest, and helping to coach my clients on how to use it, I saw why this is becoming the ultimate social media tool and have tried to distill how private practitioners and non-profits can use it to brand their practices and increases visibility.\nFunny Signs on Pinterest\nAlthough the social media site Pinterest has been around since December of 2009, it is getting a lot of attention recently. Pinterest is a visual bookmarking platform that has become very popular and developed a loyal following of over 11 million visitors per week. Pinterest, managed by Cold Brew Labs of Palo Alto, California, is best described as a pinboard-styled social photo sharing website. Pinterest enables members to \u201cpin\u201d things of interest to the site by managing theme-based collections of images. The site\u2019s stated mission is to \u201cconnect everyone in the world through the \u2018things\u2019 they find interesting.\u201d People frequently use the Pinterest site to look for, organize and share recipes, ideas on decorating their homes, and to choose clothing for special events such as weddings.\nHow Popular is Pinterest?\nThe popularity of the site has grown exponentially over the years, especially among women, and in December 2011, the site was rated in the top 10 social networks, according to Hitwise data, with 11 million total visits per week. The next month, Mashable.com reported that Pinterest drove more referral traffic to retailers than Linkedin, Youtube, and Google+. That same month, the company was named the best new startup of 2011 by TechCrunch. The recent addition of the Pinterest app for iPhone in February 2012 has added to the site\u2019s ease of use and popularity, which should enable Pinterest to see continued growth in the future by allowing people to connect socially over shared interests.\nWhy I am Addicted to Pinterest?\nMaybe it is because I am a collector and love how easy it is to find and collect stuff and engage with other, like-minded \u201ccurators\u201d(notice I didn\u2019t use the word hoarders). Or maybe it\u2019s because Pinterest forces me to be organized. Or maybe, it\u2019s because Pinterest embodies, for me, an ideal society where there is an unspoken communal reciprocity, collegiality, a \u201cgive and take.\u201d Or it could be because the site allows me to visualize and collect, images and links to information about places, people, things, and concepts that inspire me. I\u2019m not exactly sure, but I wanted to tell you more about Pinterest and show you how you might be able to both enjoy it, and use it to help build a practice or non-profit.\nHow Can Pinterest Be Used to Help Those in Private Practice and Non-Profits?\nPrivate Practitioners and Non-Profits can use Pinterest to:\nBuilding Visibility\nPinterest has built in social network sharing functionality enabling users to easily integrate their Pinterest accounts with Facebook and Twitter. This is an incredible way to reach a large audience. By using this feature, social workers and non-profits are able to get their message across multiple channels at once, saving time, and increasing the number of people that will be exposed to pictures illustrating services, staff, infographics, workshops, special events, or products.\nNetworking with Colleagues and Referral Sources\nPinterest users can \u201cfollow\u201d colleagues and referral sources pin boards and receive emails when new pictures have been posted. People in your network, and in the Pinterest community can \u201clike\u201d a pin, and show support by re-pinning the same picture on their pin board thereby notifying their followers of the pin, enabling the original pin to \u201cgo viral.\u201d You can even invite colleagues and referral sources to post on your pin boards.\nEducating and Learning from Others\nPinterest has a built-in search engine that Pinterest users can use to search for information on any topic by keywords. You can find a lot of helpful information on Pinterest such as links to articles, books, infographics, papers, videos, podcasts, and related resources. You can establish yourself and your agency as a trusted expert in your field, by creating and collecting helpful resources and information on your topic and pinning it regularly to your pin boards. Pinners can serve as content \u201ccurators\u201d by choosing the most informative, and educational material, and pinning it to your pin boards.\nBy creating, collecting, and sharing, helpful resources such as information on clinical diagnoses, symptoms, treatment options, book or movie reviews and links to resources, you are establishing or reinforcing your credibility and visibility. By pairing links from your pins to your website, prospective clients searching for information or resources can find your pin through a keyword search and then click through to your website.\nTo get started with Pinterest you first need to set up a business account.\nTo convert your existing personal Pinterest account to a business one then go to business.pinterest.com, and click the red \u2018Convert your existing account\u2019 button.\nThe service can be a little challenging technologically, so if you\u2019d like some help getting started with Pinterest or any other social media site let\u2019s Schedule a Coaching Session and get you set up.\nIf you haven\u2019t set up a Social Media Policy for your clients I strongly suggest you do so as soon as possible. If you\u2019d like help setting one up- schedule a coaching session where we can actually work on setting one up for you. If you\u2019d rather try to do it yourself, I\u2019d be happy to send you some sample social media policies. Just email me here and let me know you\u2019d like a link to the sample policies.\nWayne Kessler, LICSW is a Private Practice Consultant and Technology Coach based in Westwood, Massachusetts.

Cram\nHydrocarbons in rocks of Pleistocene age have been found in 56 fields located mainly offshore from Louisiana. The maximum thickness of the Pleistocene exceeds 10,000 ft (3,050 m) near the outer edge of the continental shelf in the western Gulf basin. The types of lithologies, facies, and traps in which the hydrocarbons accumulated are similar to those of the underlying Pliocene and Miocene beds, which contain major re- serves. Additional' accumulations are expected to be found in Pleistocene rocks in an area of about 101,000 sq mi (261,160 sq km) offshore from Louisiana and Texas. However, the best opportunity for finding commercial accumulations of oil and gas appears to be in a 4,300-sq mi (11,140 sq km) area in the partially explored Pleistocene province and in a 10,700-sq mi (27,710 sq km) area of the unexplored part of the outer continental shelf\u2014a total of 15,000 sq mi (38,850 sq km) with the best potential.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Remembering Steve Matheson\nMay Fat Quarter Challenge \u00bb\nThe Guatemala Project\nIn a village near Chichicastanago in Guatemala, many people burn wood in their houses for warmth and cooking. The stoves they have are not ventilated and the people breathe the smoke from the fires every day. As you can see the floors are dirt.\nThe Guatemala Project (https://www.sdguatemalaproject.org/) installs safer stoves in several homes each year. These are special stoves which are ventilated so the people can breathe clean air in their homes.\nEarlier this year, thirty-one quilts from QBB were distributed to these families and widows during a trip to install stoves. The quilts will bring warmth to the families and especially the children.\nDuring the civil war in Guatemala in the 1980s, the men of the village were called to a meeting in a local church. They were asked to join the army to fight in the war. When the men refused to join, the soldiers locked the doors and set the church building on fire. That fire took the lives of the 40 men who went to the meeting.\nThe widows of those men formed a co-op. They do weaving and embroidery to support themselves. These women prepared lunch for the people who provided and installed the stoves. Quilts were given to some of the women. Their smiles tell how grateful they were.\nThanks to so many generous people who send quilts to QBB, there will be smiles on the faces of these people. Your quilts will be used and cherished by these people for many years. Thank you all for your time and talent and especially your generosity.\n-Ann Drake\n2 Responses to \u201cThe Guatemala Project\u201d\nWhat a powerful story of loss these women have endured! I\u2019m so glad that the quilts bright some warmth and brightness into their lives.\nFrom the Northwest and Beyond \u2013 Quilts for Guatemala | Quilts Beyond Borders Says:\n[\u2026] safer stoves for families in their homes.

        "raw_content": "Photos: Jeff Nakahara, Jeff Nakahara Photography (http://www.jeffnakaharaphoto.com/)\nOur Bambalina Mina is now 4!! (We had a nickname for her in my womb, \u201cBambalina/o\u201d meaning \u201clittle child\u201d in Italian, as we kept her gender a surprise until her birth.)\n4 years since that most magical and empowering moment of my life: giving natural birth to this wonder of a being. It feels like a flash yet I know these past 4 years have been filled with countless moments of surprise, doubt, wonder, fear, giggles, tears, reflection, insight and always always love. Learning and growing in love.\nThere\u2019s a part of me that misses the baby Mina, the toddler Mina, these stages seemed to have passed too soon. This part of me wants to hang on to every detail, record and remember every tender exchange, capture and carry them with me at all times, and even wish to trap time so I can have this moment last a little longer, but I know that\u2019s neither possible nor the point.\nOne day, Mina says to me, \u201cI don\u2019t want to be 4, I want to stay a baby\u2026Mama\u2019s sad that I\u2019m growing up.\u201d\nI was taken by surprise and quickly realized how my seemingly innocent expression of missing Mina\u2019s babyhood was taking a toll, affecting her energy, her being. How unfair and selfish of me, \u201cI love you just the way you are, Mina!\u201d\nI can neither control nor cage time, change, or love (and I wouldn\u2019t want to anyway). Buscaglia says, \u201cThere is no stopping it, no holding it back; there is only going with it. \u201d I don\u2019t want to hold her back, but I regret that my words were doing just that. Only by letting go, can I truly be free to engage in the moment. Every age, every stage is different, each with special discoveries and newness of becoming. I choose to welcome, embrace and celebrate each new day of our family life.\nAll the moments we\u2019ve shared as a family are lived through each of us, growing through them and being changed by them.\nChange is inevitable and so beautiful; it is proof that we are most alive.\nMina, now 4, is full of life, eager to learn and understand her world as she sees it, so brave and independent to do everything, \u201cI can do it all by myself!\u201d she constantly says with attitude. When she was still a baby, one of her earliest expressions was, \u201cMina do!\u201d She\u2019s the same little stinker, just a bit bigger, and sharing more of herself. Lucky for us.\nAt her 4-year wellness checkup, she greeted her doctor with, \u201cI have a stethoscope, too, a real one!\u201d (which she got as one of her birthday gifts). And when I asked if she wanted to hold my hand for the shot since she forgot to bring a friend (she always has one stuffed animal with her), she paused only for a second and shrugged, \u201cNo, it\u2019s okay, I\u2019m 4 now, I\u2019m fine.\u201d Not a cry, and she later explained to the receptionist, \u201cIt hurt just for a bit and it was gone.\u201d She\u2019s becoming such a big girl and quite social. I\u2019m so proud of her and so grateful to be a part of her happy life!\nAnd her new greeting to anyone she meets now is \u201cHi, I\u2019m 4!!!\u201d\nTags: birthday, change, family, grow, learn, live, love, motherhood, Parenting, time",

        "title": "Economics of starting or growing a family business in Canada just got worse, local lawyer says | rdnewsNOW",
        "raw_content": "Economics of starting or growing a family business in Canada just got worse, local lawyer says\nOn July 18, 2017 the Liberal Government released a \u201cDiscussion Paper\u201d and related \u201cdraft\u201d tax legislative proposals (\u201cProposals\u201d) which fundamentally changes (and dramatically increases in many cases) the taxation of family business corporations in Canada.\nUnder the cloak of \u201cfairness\u201d (as defined by this Government; not surprising, \u201cfairness\u201d is a term found nowhere in Canada\u2019s Income Tax Act), the undercurrent of this legislation and the accompanying \u201cDiscussion Paper\u201d is anything but fair, and is hostile in its tone and effect in an unprecedented manner.\nWhat will be the Results of the Proposals?\nThe Proposals alter the established risk-reward equation for starting or growing a family business in Canada; they do nothing for \u201crisk\u201d and seek to tax away substantially more \u201creward\u201d, if there is success.\nHere will be the results of the Proposals:\n1. The Proposals will make the after tax economics of starting or growing a family business in Canada less attractive. (This Government\u2019s statement that Canada is \u201copen\u201d for business is becoming increasingly meaningless and disingenuous, especially for family businesses.)\n2. The Proposals will, in a degree and magnitude not addressed in the Discussion Paper, result in less investment and employment in Canada, with family businesses, as practicable and desirable, exploring alternate opportunities to invest and grow employment outside of Canada.\n3. The Proposals, in concert with other significant tax increases, make us uncompetitive (i.e., effective tax rates substantially over 50%) vis-a-vis other jurisdictions for individuals and families to start and grow family businesses, including the US with upcoming tax reforms.\nAre these the results the Government intend the Proposals to accomplish?\nProposals are Hostile in both Tone and Effect\nThe Proposals are (i) incredibly complex, (ii) will not be properly understood by either business owners or their general accounting or legal advisors, and (iii) will require the expense of tax specialists (which may or may not be affordable for family business owners) in order to try to navigate through numerous snares and traps embedded in the Proposals resulting in ridiculous tax rates well in excess of 50% and double taxation, along with residual uncertainties resulting in more tax disputes with the CRA.\nWhy are the Proposals so Hostile?\nIn tax law, details matter; the authors of the Proposals are unaccountable Government Bureaucrats at the Department of Finance who were tasked by this Government to draft their legislative priorities.\nIn drafting the Proposals, these Bureaucrats made deliberate choices to adopt, unnecessarily, harsh approaches to legislate these priorities with retroactive effects (i.e., rewrite the tax implications for historical transactions), over the top resultant tax rates, and double tax traps. Why did these Bureaucrats make those deliberate, hostile, over-the-top drafting choices?\nWas Justin Trudeau or Bill Morneau aware of these \u201cdetails\u201d when they released the Proposals on July 18, or was there a rush to go on summer vacations?\nFamily Business Owners vs. Government Bureaucrats, who is treated more \u201cFair\u201d?\nThe Proposals target three areas: income splitting, reinvesting family business profits for retirement savings, and capital gains from family businesses.\nNot surprisingly, the \u201cDiscussion Paper\u201d uses self-serving examples to justify the changes. To illustrate the unfairness of the Proposals, we will not use the examples favored by the Discussion Paper, and will instead contrast the changes between two families, Mr. and Mrs. Retailer, and Mr. and Mrs. Government Bureaucrat working at the Department of Finance.\nMr. and Mrs. Retailer are not rich. They own a retail store in a private corporation in Ottawa which employs other Canadians. Mr. Retailer works all the time in the business; Mrs. Retailer stays at home and looks after their minor children. Before paying themselves anything, we will assume their corporation makes $220,000 in net income. Mr. Retailer pays himself a salary of $110,000 and pays Mrs. Retailer a dividend of the remainder after paying applicable corporate income taxes.\nAs a comparison, Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat work in Ottawa with the Department of Finance, have no children, both make $110,000 in salary ($220,000 in total household income), weeks of paid vacation and banked sick time, both have a taxpayer funded, risk free defined benefit pension plans which, as per the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat contribute to about only 50% of its estimated costs (and prior to 2017, only about 37%), with the majority balance paid for by taxpayers, including Mr. and Mrs. Retailer.\nIncome Splitting Attack \u2013 Top Rate Tax and Retroactive Tax Effect\nThere are numerous complex and punitive attacks under the income splitting Proposals, but the most common attack will be on the spouses and common law partners of active family business owners who are not paying their \u201cfair share\u201d.\nPrior to the Proposals, the families of Mr. and Mrs. Retailer and Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat would have similar after tax family incomes on their similar before tax family incomes. That is fair.\nThe Proposals change that result. Under the Proposals, all of dividend to be paid to Mrs. Retailer, whether paid to Mrs. Retailer, or redirected to Mr. Retailer, will result in their family paying well in excess of $10,000 of additional tax each year versus Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat\u2019s family on the same $220,000 total of family earnings. Is this fair? It appears this Government thinks so.\nIronically, the Discussion Paper refers to a \u201cgender based analysis\u201d; the value of a spouse or partner who stays at home to care for the children (usually the female) to support the efforts of the active spouse or partner in the family business (usually the male) receives zero recognition under the Proposals. Is that fair? Not according to Canadian matrimonial law.\nThe Proposals are retroactive in effect. They not only apply the punitive tax rate to future earnings of the family business but also past retained profits in the family business. If Mr. Retailer retires in 2018 and wants to pay a dividend to Mrs. Retailer out of retained profits during their retirement years which were earned over a period of prior decades prior to the Proposals; the punitive top rate on the dividend will apply on that income also, an indirect way of imposing a retroactive tax on earnings retained in a corporation under a different set of rules and expectations! Is that fair?\nStatistically Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat will retire sooner than Mr. and Mrs. Retailer. As it relates to the taxpayer funded pensions of Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat, the Proposals do not address their ability to income split with each other if one of them has higher pension income than the other or none. No proposed changes here \u2013 nothing at all. Is \u201cselective fairness\u201d, fair?\nIf this Government was sincere in its confessed aim in \u201cmaking sure that we all pay our fair share of taxes \u2013 with no exceptions\u201d the Proposals would level the playing field for all taxpayers by allowing all taxpayers, business owners or employees, the choice to file joint tax returns with their spouses or common law partners thereby availing tax efficiencies for all taxpayers instead of selectively taking it away for some and letting it remain for others. That would be most fair, even better than status quo.\nOther nations have adopted this superior, \u201cfair\u201d approach, such as the United States; allowing for joint tax returns respects couples\u2019 individual choices as to their agreed upon work and family priorities.\nRetirement Savings Attack \u2013 Tax Rates > 70%\nMr. and Mrs. Retailer do not have the guaranteed, generous Government pension plan of Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat. Like many owners of family businesses, they compensate by risking a portion of their business after tax profits to earn non business income to fund their retirements. However, there is a significant cost to doing so; corporate non-business income is taxed at a higher, ultimate tax rate (over 50%) than if earned directly.\nBy way of contrast, those non business earnings are at risk, not guaranteed, and do not accumulate tax free, as in the case of the pensions of Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat. Moreover, 50% or more of the ultimate payouts from the corporation of Mr. and Mrs. Retailer are not subsidized by the taxpayers of Canada, as in the case of the Government pensions of Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat.\nWhile nowhere near as advantageous as Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat\u2019s pensions, the Proposals attack the perceived unfair advantage that these corporations have because they start with higher amounts to invest because of lower corporate tax rates on business income versus if it was earned personally.\nUnfortunately, the concept of corporate tax integration, including tax rates of over 50% on investment income, is not understood by the general population and the Government has decided to take advantage of this misinformation to squash the modest advantage of using a family business corporation as a substitute pension vehicle. For whatever reason, a 50% or more tax rate is not enough and the Proposals would result in effective taxes well in excess of 70% on such earnings. Is that fair? What rational person would ever invest in those circumstances?\nImplicit in applicable tax rates in excess of 70%, do our provincial and federal Governments think they are more entitled to Canadians\u2019 income than the Canadians who earned it?\nIn this toxic environment, the Proposals will drive away significant investment by family businesses, where capital is becoming increasingly important because of the growing exodus of foreign investment, resulting in harmful consequences to the Canadian economy. Is that what this Government wants?\nCapital Gains Attack - Double Tax with a Retroactive Tax Effect\nCanadian taxpayers have witnessed dramatic income tax increases over the past few years. For example, in Alberta the top marginal tax rate has increased from 39% to 48% in just a couple of years and in other provinces, top marginal rates now exceed 50%! However, with a 50% inclusion rate, capital gain tax rate increases have been more insulated from other tax increases, including on dividends.\nThe Proposals seek to eliminate opportunities to benefit from this lower tax rate, whether intentionally or unintentionally (including due to ridiculously complex and overly broad changes to the intercorporate dividend rules by the Department of Finance) in a private corporation context. The Proposals will impose a double tax in such circumstances, and seek to impose retroactive tax on transactions that occurred in the past under a different set of rules! Is that fair?\nThis Government and the Bureaucrats at the Department of Finance appear to have forgotten that without a private sector (most of which is directly or indirectly attributable to family businesses) there is no money to pay for the public sector, including the salaries and pensions of Mr. and Mrs. Bureaucrat.\nEven if one holds to a belief that the Proposals are \u201cfair\u201d, if the ultimate impact of the Proposals is to diminish Canadian family businesses, the largest private employer and direct and indirect contributor of tax revenues in Canada, is this wise Government policy? Do we want to encourage successful family businesses, with tax revenues and employment that accompany them? Is it prudent to pile on more cumulative disincentives for risk taking, growing and employing in these challenging times? Who will be causing harm to Canadian employees \u2013family businesses providing these employees with livelihoods, or reckless Government Proposals which diminish, and in some cases, will take away those livelihoods?\nThis Government has an opportunity to make meaningful, long term positive tax policy changes to address concerns and improve economic competitiveness; however these hostile and destructive Proposals with a disingenuous 75 day \u201cconsultation\u201d process started during the middle of the summer do not make the cut. Humility will be required to make the required course correction.\nCanadians should be concerned about the destructive, direct and indirect, short and long term, economic impacts which will occur under the Proposals and emphatically and sincerely inform our local Government representatives, as well as the Department of Finance ([email protected]), Bill Morneau ([email protected]), and Justin Trudeau ([email protected]) of our concerns.\nHopefully goodwill and common sense will prevail.\n- Jason Stephan",

        "raw_content": "Ready to Run (I Do, I Don\u2019t: Book 1) by Lauren Layne\nTitle: Ready to Run\nDate of publication: August 22nd, 2017\nReady to Run \u2013 Book 1\nJust Run With It \u2013 Book 3\nWhere you can find Ready to Run: Barnes and Noble | Amazon\nIn the market for a light, humorous and romantic read. Then pick up Ready to Run. Trust me, you will not be disappointed by this book. I giggled from page one and this book did something that most romance/humor books don\u2019t do to me\u2026.got belly laughs. Between Jordan and Simon\u2019s witty banter to the townspeople of Lucky Hollow pushing Luke into accepting Jordan\u2019s offer, I was amused almost the whole book.\nThe plotline of Ready to Run was very interesting and I could actually see a TV show like Jilted being picked up by a network. I thought it was pretty interesting at the lengths Jordan was prepared to go to have Luke agree to star on the show. I mean, she was willing to go track down his ex-fiancees to get the dirty about why Luke was a runaway groom. She even rented a house in town just to be close to him and hopefully wear him down.\nThe nuances of small-town life were perfectly captured also. It made me want to pack up and move to such a town. I live in a smallish city (population around 40k) and I have always wondered what it would be like to live in a small town where everyone knew everyone. I thought it was hilarious that the townspeople were not only siding with Jordan but were also trying to play matchmaker between them.\nI liked Jordan. She was sassy, thought on her feet and wasn\u2019t afraid to show or tell Luke what she thought of him. Her backstory was very sad\u2026when she got around to revealing it. She loved the city\u2026.with all of its hustle and bustle but secretly wanted to live in a small town again. I think she fell in love with Lucky Hollow before she fell for Luke. The only thing that I didn\u2019t like about her was that she did come off as almost teenagerish at points in the book. But that is such a small detail to the book and overall, she was a pretty fleshed out character.\nLuke, I liked but I found it a little hard to connect with him. Understandably, he didn\u2019t want to take about his ex\u2019s but he was really rude to Jordan. He even called her a vulture at one point in the book. But, he did have a reason for being a jerk and it was really sad. Let\u2019s just say that it involves his best friend and his ex and leave it at that. But I did end up liking him towards the end of the book. He did something very unexpected that gave me warm fuzzy feelings inside.\nI do have to give a shout out to the secondary characters in Ready to Run. They truly made this book. While Luke and Jordan did a great job on the romance angle, it was the secondary characters that really fleshed the book out. I could only wish to have a best friend as supportive as Simon or ex\u2019s as great as Hailey and Stacey or a family member who wasn\u2019t afraid to tell you how it was like Tawny and all of the other characters.\nThe romance between Luke and Jordan wasn\u2019t a slow-burn and it did have a touch of Instalove. But it was cute to watch them both fight it and then give in. And when they gave in\u2026.the sex was hot. What I liked is that the sex wasn\u2019t overly descriptive (and don\u2019t get me wrong, I like that but sometimes a change of pace is needed) and you got to use your imagination as what happened between the sheets.\nThe end of the book was perfect and I loved the epilogue. If I was Jordan, I would have been nervous too. Want to know what I\u2019m talking about\u2026.read the book!!\nHow many stars will I give Ready to Run: 4\nWhy: great storyline, great characters, and a sweet romance\nPosted in ARC, book review, NetGalley, Random House Publishing Group\tbook 1I Do I Don'tLauren LayneReady to Runromance\n\u2039 PreviousTightrope Walker by Shaun Hume\nNext \u203aTraitor in Her Arms (The Scarlet Chronicles: Book 1) by Shana Galen\n2 thoughts on \u201cReady to Run (I Do, I Don\u2019t: Book 1) by Lauren Layne\u201d\nPingback: Runaway Groom (I Do, I Don\u2019t) by Lauren Layne \u2013 Read with Me",

The Upjohn Institute estimated the first-dollar, middle-dollar, and last-dollar costs for a Beloit Promise over a 10-year time frame. The cost estimate was based on details that were provided by the planning committee regarding student eligibility, eligible post-secondary institutions, and time frame for the program.\nA \"middle-dollar\" program required students to complete their FAFSA and then fill the gap between federal/state financial aid and college cost. The last-dollar estimate was calculated using two different methods, one relying on a survey of the past five years of college-going patterns by Beloit graduates and an assessment of average financial aid granted by the institutions they attend, and the other based on the average institutional aid received by students through programs, such as the Denver Scholarship Foundation, that required students to apply for private scholarships.\nCost Estimate for a Two-Year Beloit Promise, George A.

        "raw_content": "Rebrands that work over the long term are all about character. You can dress up how you want, but how did that work for the rich kid who had awesome clothes and no friends? Let\u2019s test that theory and contrast a wardrobe change and a lasting, effective rebrand. And we\u2019ll add some bonus pre-branding disciplines that will get your organization ready to earn your rebrand.\n\u201cThey just want the watch; they don\u2019t want to know the time\u201d -Cross Movement\nEveryone knows that kid who dressed in expensive clothes, but just didn\u2019t have the coolness or likeability to back it up. He wanted to be popular, but got convinced that he could buy popularity. The best ones figure it out and develop their social skills and their inner character, and have the best of all worlds: they look good, and they ARE good.\nIn business, we have the same phenomenon. It\u2019s the foosball table, the kegerator, it\u2019s bringing your pets to work day. It\u2019s the boardroom, the Mac laptops (that every \u201ccreative\u201d agency uses) and other things that you think make you legit. None of those things are bad, but if it\u2019s not backed up by substance, it just seems poseurish and insincere.\nIn school, it was a kid named Tim (let\u2019s just call him that, for conversation\u2019s sake). He had all the soccer clothes and the best equipment. And he loved soccer. The problem was, he was only pretty good at soccer. In other words, with his outward commitment to soccer, you\u2019d have expected so much more. But when I went out to play with him, he was good, but not in a way that added any value. I had other friends who were faster, stronger, more creative and just better people (at that age). And I think most people would have forgiven him if he were humble and a man of good character. But at that age, he just hadn\u2019t put it together.\nMany leaders give themselves a very low ceiling for growth, because they haven\u2019t put it together. They\u2019re naive enough to think that they\u2019ve learned enough, that they\u2019ve grown enough\u2026that they\u2019re mature enough.\nWhat\u2019s your ceiling? And how do you know your leadership can support a rebrand? Because even though it seems like it\u2019s easier than making a personal life change, many executives find out that it\u2019s not.\nSome People Get It. Others Have to Fail.\nLet\u2019s face it. Growth is hard, and not a lot of people are praying to God for the kinds of trials that will put them onto the anvil and give them compassion and patience, along with balls of granite (an especially uncommon prayer for women, I imagine) and a spine of steel. Instead, everyone\u2019s looking for the magic bullet; the business clickbait. \u201c10 Ways to Grow Your Company Today.\u201d Nobody wants to do the stuff you know you need to do, because it\u2019s hard.\nFire that guy (or group) who\u2019s killing your culture.\nBring your personality under control, so you can make a bigger impact.\nPick a goal, tell everyone and hold everyone accountable to that goal.\nLive out the values your company says it holds to.\nAnd unless life hands you a big, fat failure, most of us just keep doing the same unimaginative, stagnating activities, but calling it \u201cstrategy.\u201d But there\u2019s a cost.\nYou\u2019re a leader, but what if you were an employee? Would you fire yourself?\n\u201cThe price of a bad hire is at least 30 percent of the employee\u2019s first-year earnings.\u201d\nAccording to Forbes Magazine, recruiter J\u00f6rgen Sundberg estimates it costs $240,000 to onboard an employee. I\u2019m assuming his average is a senior manager at a large company, and that your costs may be different. But still, according to the same article, the Department of Labor adds \u201cthe price of a bad hire is at least 30 percent of the employee\u2019s first-year earnings.\u201d\nSo what happens when the leader is the bad employee? What\u2019s he costing the company? Surely it\u2019s magnified when when it\u2019s the leader. After all, they\u2019re the ones who make people want to leave, which increases the cost of hiring (because it sucks to work in your organization), and cripples the quality and quantity of work.\nWhy A Rebrand Seems Easy\nWhat if you hired an image consultant to change your look and behavior, but you didn\u2019t change your character? You\u2019d look and speak better, but nothing would have changed. You\u2019d have the same personal and leadership problems, but with a new set of social skills. Your reputation wouldn\u2019t change at all; worse, it may actually devolve as people see and hear you, setting their expectations high, only to watch you disappoint. Over and over again.\nMany leaders think it\u2019s easy to rebrand their company. Here are some reasons why.\nYou Don\u2019t Need Discipline\nYou don\u2019t have to exercise or change your diet, because people aren\u2019t looking at you; they\u2019re looking at the brand. Your logo, locations, website, etc all tell people what they need to know about your brand. So you don\u2019t have to change your personal eating habits, and you don\u2019t have to exercise.\nBut this is short-sighted, since true discipline starts on the inside. How long do you think people will trust your organization if you just made new promises without changing anything on the inside, including leadership\u2019s commitment to fulfilling the brand promise?\nProfessionals Pick Out Your Wardrobe for You.\nYour personal wardrobe is between you and maybe your significant other. But when you\u2019re rebranding your company, other people pick out your look and feel; usually, they use information about your brand and then about your audience. And all you have to do is sign the check, right?\nBut who\u2019s gonna execute in the day-to-day? Branding is meant to make that style a part of you\u2026an extension of who you are\u2026not just a temporary thing. You have to be able to execute over time, with the staff you have internally. Who\u2019s your internal brand manager, and do they know how to make decisions about how to apply the brand? Do they have permission and confidence that comes from strong backing from leadership?\nYou Don\u2019t Have to Learn Manners.\nIn your personal life, you can be whoever you want (just don\u2019t do anything both bad and newsworthy, and you should be okay). You can refuse to tip your server, race through traffic like you\u2019re the only one who matters and ignore people who need help.\nBut in company life, your earnings are related to how you treat people. In fact, the link between your earnings and how you treat your people is both indirect link and unavoidable. And this naive idea that we can treat the people around us in whatever abusive and disrespectful way we want, and it won\u2019t show on the outside, will cost you real money.\nSolution: Find out What\u2019s Underneath the Clothes.\n\u201cYou don\u2019t always need a plan Bro. Sometimes you just need [guts].\u201d -unknown\nEverything seems easy when you\u2019re only seeing the outside of the company. We think if we had Nike\u2019s brand, we\u2019d be like Nike. But that\u2019s an illusion. Very few people have developed and shown the consistent character of leadership that Phil Knight has, in order to lead that organization and respond to challenges that have faced the company and the consequences of their decisions.\nIf you want to be like Nike, don\u2019t think about a logo. Think about character. And there are some tried and true ways to develop character. There are things you can do on the outside that will set the table for your growth. And even though it has to happen on the inside, here are some ways to coax it along.\nVulnerability and Accountability.\nGet coaching from a professional coach who\u2019s worked with people you respect.\nFind other, trusted relationships outside of the company and tell them you want to build character, no matter what it takes.\nIn other words, find a way to get on the anvil so you can get hammered by people who love you.\nDo people you interact with feel respected at the company? Do they trust your character and believe you\u2019re about the right things?\nDo people in the organization believe that you care less about everyone liking you and more about doing things rightly?\nTalk to people outside the company. Same questions.\nBranding is Not Skin Deep. It\u2019s Hard Core.\nRemember that the best people in the world are disciplined and full of love. I\u2019ve heard Navy SEALs talk about love being the fuel for why they fight. The CEOs of some of the biggest companies are some of the most disciplined people in the world.\nWhy does this matter? Because your ability to execute on anything your brand promises completely depends on your culture and processes. And those things all get their focus and discipline from the leader.\nI don\u2019t know where Tim is today, but I hope he\u2019s built his look on a hardcore foundation of discipline and focus, having surrounded himself with people who possess traits that will help him grow. And if this is true, I hope he\u2019s in a position of influence among his friends or as a leader of an organization. And I hope he\u2019s taking it in a direction of true character. And instead of having to spend so much time, money and energy trying to bring empty promises (of good looks, abilities and character) together, that he\u2019s sharing what he\u2019s done, and causing others to grow.",

        "raw_content": "lfb: football fantasia\nBy 2N, uNsiNkable\tin hobbies, loaded for blog\ton August 16, 2007 August 17, 2014\nSo it is indeed that time of year again.\nThe time of year when I cease having a boyfriend. He gets suspiciously replaced with a screaming, rabid football fan.\nPVDD not only watches football, he commissions a fantasy football league, the Felonious Football League. He\u2019s got two team owners that live in other states, so the draft is a little tricky.\nFor those of you (like myself) that are not familiar with the fantasy football phenomenon, it basically works where a league has anywhere from 8 to 20 teams. Standard leagues will normally have like 12 teams. Each team in the league is represented by a team owner. Every year on Labor Day, PVDD holds his draft. This is where each of the team owners picks the players on his or her team. Now, each team owner gets a \u201ckeeper\u201d: a player from the previous year that they get to sort of reserve in advance and is not available for the other team owners to draft.\nIn the draft, players are picked by rounds \u2013 each team owner picks a player and then the next and so on. It goes basically from 1 to 20 and then 20 back to 1 and so on. Obviously, the team owners that are close to the beginning of the draft order will get the best players first. Each team owner will usually grab a stud running back first, since there are only a few guys that get a ton of yards and touches, and they are almost always running backs. That\u2019s how points are scored for the team based on the stats for the players you start. By the end of the draft, you should have at least one kicker, one or two quarterbacks, one or two running backs and one or two wide receivers. PVDD also has his owners pick individual defensive players. This means that the team owners will draft defensive team members and not just a real life team\u2019s defensive team as a whole. So by the end of the draft you should also have a well-rounded defensive team as well.\nSo PVDD spends hours drafting up a manifesto and making the league schedule, keeping track of who\u2019s starting who and if real life players get injured and whatnot. Every week, all the teams in the league will match off against another team, with four teams on a \u201cbye\u201d where they don\u2019t play (byes only occur during week 4 and week 10). If your team is playing in a game that week, you want to check that you start players that are playing in real life games \u2013 otherwise you miss out on potential points. Points are earned based on the yards your players run, their catches, tackles, and so on. At the end of the year, there are cash rewards awarded after the \u201cplayoffs\u201d which are between the division or wildcard winners. The winner of the Felony Bowl last year (the single female team owner, thankyouverymuch) got about $800. There\u2019s a Last Man Standing award too, where each week the lowest scoring team is out of the running and so on until the last week it\u2019s down to two players for the award and the higher score wins that prize. That award is that you just get your entry fee back (about $75).\nSo last year during the draft, I was pressed into service as the long distance communicator. We set up shop at the local blogging bar, and I got the two remote team owners on IM, and told them the players that were picked and related their picks to the rest of the people. For someone who has had no experience in football and almost zero familiarity with the player names, you can imagine to some degree the madness that ensued, especially after the lovely barmaid continued to keep me in drink.\nThis year I anticipate the draft with a little more excitement. Last year\u2019s football season actually ended up being pretty fun, rooting on the Seahawks and I even ended up learning a bit about the game and the players. Who knows, maybe one of these years I\u2019ll have a team of my own!\nTags: fantasy football, lfb, sports\nPrevious postcaution: consume with extreme care\nNext postpygmalion: late night hypotheses",

        "raw_content": "Oh wow! I must say, this drama is getting better & better with each passing episode. I really think that a success behind any drama is the quotient of curiosity that exists even after the episode ends & that has been the case with Preet Na Kariyo Koi since day 1 because I find myself looking forward to the next episode eagerly every single time. I must say the way the story is moving forward & the way little details about the characters are being revealed makes this drama a treat to watch & for that, I thank the writer Amna Mufti & the director Ehtasham ud din for doing wonders & giving us an amazing drama to follow through.\nGoshi has once again proved that she can go to any length to get what she wants. She displayed a totally different face in front of Shams where she pleaded & explained to him with humility & sincerity that he means the world to her. Shagufta knows that Shams isn\u2019t someone whose proposal will be approved by her father but still, she has decided to take that chance because for her, nothing is more important than getting married to Shams at this stage. Like I said before, Shagufta is the sort of a girl who can be at her best for someone she loves but she can be a nightmare as well for those who oppose her in any possible way. Goshi knew that Shams was bound because he already got married that\u2019s why she approached Suleri Sahab (Rehan Sheikh); the leader of the political party that Shams is a member of, as she knew that Shams won\u2019t be able to refuse his orders & he happens to be the only person who could get the job done. Shams was the only one who required some convincing because as far as Shagufta is concerned, she knew she could easily force her father to go by her wishes.\nIt was for the first time that we got a glimpse into Shams\u2019s true nature where he clearly spoke about what his political careers means to him. For the first time, Shams gave away his secret that he can go to any length to protect his career in politics & that is why he wouldn\u2019t even mind if he had to get married to Goshi because he could sense that she can cause harm to his potential career. Also another thing that convinced me about it was that Shams chose to use the love word in front of his group of friends just to convince them that he is only getting married to Goshi because he loves her, whereas what he said prior to this conversation suggested something entirely different. It was interesting to see Shams opening up a bit because so far his character has always been quite mysterious but this time around, we could actually figure out what was going through his mind & also the fact that he is very ambitious about his career & would eliminate any obstacles that come in his way.\nZareena happens to expect a lot more from Shams than what he has to offer. Shams left & didn\u2019t bother speaking to his family or his newly wedded wife because he got a bit too concerned about how he can approach Goshi\u2019s parent. He chose to seek some help from his class-mate & Goshi\u2019s friend Saima. The way Saima projected herself in last episode, I really expected that she would stand for the right & wouldn\u2019t support Shams in lying to her mother but she found all this to be quite exciting, therefore she became a part of the plan too. Shams thought that the only way to get married to Goshi was to lie to her father & keep some major facts from him. Shams happens to be someone who believes in taking decisions at the spur of a moment & he doesn\u2019t believe in thinking things through. He did it before when he didn\u2019t take a moment & decided to get married to Zareena within few seconds & he is doing it again where just when he sensed that Goshi can create issues for him, he immediately decided that he will get married to her too. Shams believes in dealing with the situations the moment they pop up, without even thinking for a second that all these decisions that he is taking are lifelong & aren\u2019t something that he can think about or deal with later on in his life. I think Shams doesn\u2019t understand that people are dependent on him & expect more from him because right now he is too focused about his career that he isn\u2019t paying heed to all these people who are surrounding him. Shams might think that he is going in the right direction but the way he remains oblivious to the fact that the consequences can go against him makes him look a bit gullible.\nI felt bad for Goshi\u2019s father & Ilyas\u2019s mother. Once again Goshi left her father with no choice but to agree to her demands & unfortunately, Fiaz had to do what Goshi ordered as he knows that she is quite difficult to deal with. Shagufta continued shaming Ilyas in front of both her father & his mother because she knew that this was the card that was going to work for her. The moment she felt that her father will take a step back from accepting Shams\u2019s proposal, she used Ilyas\u2019s name to convince him & remind him that she accepted his decision once & now it was his turn to pay her back. It was good to see Mariam but sadly she didn\u2019t get much screen time. I really am keen to see how her & Ilyas\u2019s relation is shaping up because it looked like she is doing everything to keep her family happy but her mother in law is still giving her a hard time & has not accepted her wholeheartedly. I really hope that they don\u2019t cut down on Ilyas\u2019s character & keep him involved in the story one way or the other.\nI am sure Goshi doesn\u2019t understand what she is getting into. She isn\u2019t as far sighted as she thinks she is because if Goshi would\u2019ve had a faintest idea of what people like Suleri are capable of, she would have never gotten in contact with him. I am sure Suleri is also going to use Goshi in order to keep Shams entrapped & he will use this against both of them because he doesn\u2019t seem as nice as he poses to be. I have a feeling that things are going to get quite difficult for Goshi in the time to come because she has no idea what the life that she has chosen for herself with Shams would be like. In fact, I believe things will get difficult for Shams as well because where on one hand he\u2019d have to deal with Suleri, on the other his brother might make things tough for him as well because it looks like his brother & bhabhi have an agenda too & they feel no shame in deceiving him as well.\nThe preview of the next episode was intense & happening. Once again, HUM TV editors tricked us into believing that Shams & Goshi will get married in this episode by showing such clips in the preview last week but looks like it will be happening in the upcoming episode. I really hope Goshi\u2019s father; being a heart-patient would survive the lies & deciet that both her daughter & son-in-law have fabricated in front of him. I must say, Irfan Khoosat has portrayed the feelings of a concerned & helpless father to perfection & I actually teared up at that moment where he felt that he would collapse after Goshi\u2019s final verdict of getting married to Shams. Each & every character has done complete justice to their characters & once again, Hira stood out for me in this episode, where she actually made her pleading seem heartfelt & genuine because it was her honest confession that forced Shams to take such a huge step where he is not thinking about the future at all. Ahsan Khan was brilliant in this episode as well, I must say the way he has worked on his body language & his expressions is commendable, he actually is a powerful actor but has made some bad choices. I hope that this project puts things into perspective for Ahsan Khan & he chooses such substantial roles in the future too. Please share your beautiful say about this beautiful episode of Preet Na Kariyo Koi. :)",

        "raw_content": "Amongst the maneuvers, we\u2019ve seen the David Lidington move from Justice Secretary to Cabinet Office Minister, with David Gauke stepping in to take up the role.\nGauke is a qualified solicitor with experience in corporate law, as well as previously being the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions. What is his record on human rights like though? Let\u2019s take a look at his history on some of the relevant issues.\nImage Credit: 2Photo Pots / Unsplash\nBack in 2012, Gauke was quoted as saying he was inclined to vote in favour of gay marriage, explaining he believed gay people should not be excluded from the institution. He did add a proviso though, that he wanted churches and other institutions to be able to decide for themselves what they want to do in this area.\nI am inclined to vote in favour of it. I think marriage is a really good institution and I don\u2019t think gays should be excluded from it.\nGauke\u2019s voting record shows that he did indeed go on to vote in favour of legalising gay marriage in the Commons.\nImage Credit: Steve Bidmead / Pixabay\nAs Work and Pensions Secretary, David Gauke has overseen the introduction of new rules which make it harder for people with some types of disability to claim the mobility element of the Personal Independence Payment (PIP).\nA claimant recently challenged these in the High Court, with the judges ruling the changes were discriminatory and quashind the relevant part of the PIP regulations. This decision remains subject to appeal to the Court of Appeal.\nHe also spearheaded a strategy aiming to get more people with disabilities into work in the next ten years \u201cby bringing employers, the welfare system, and health services together [\u2026] to ensure everyone can reach their potential.\u201d It\u2019s too soon to say how well this strategy is being implemented but there is already positive feedback from some large employers.\nImage Credit: Alexis Brown / Unsplash\nAnother policy championed by Gauke during his time as Secretary of State for Work in Pensions is the extension of automatic workplace pension enrolment to all employees over the age of 18. Writing in the Guardian, Gauke said:\nA key part of this will be to ensure that the next generation of workers have the same opportunities as everyone else to save when they start their first job\nConversely, since 2011, David Gauke has consistently voted against the introduction of economic policies which would guarantee paid employment for young people, funded by bank taxes. He has also voted in favour of raising university tuition fees, which impacts heavily on younger people.\nA refugee from Syria in Lebanon. Image Credit: European Commission / Flickr\nIn October 2017, David Gauke spoke out strongly against Theresa May\u2019s proposed cap on the number of immigrants accepted into the UK annually, saying that flexibility was necessary at times when the UK job market required more workers from overseas.\nOn refugees, Gauke\u2019s record is less positive, as he voted against the Dubs amendment which would have allowed 3,000 unaccompanied child refugees from Syria into the UK.\nAs secretary of State for Work and Pensions since June 2017, David Gauke has been charged with overseeing the continuing rollout of the Universal Credit (UC) system which has been greatly criticised by opponents for its negative and punitive impact on some low-income households.\nToday, in a radio interview, Gauke has defended UC, describing it as \u201ca good system which has got even better, and it is helping people into work and dealing with the long-term challenges to ensure that people can support themselves.\u201d\nFeatured Image Credit: Saeima / Flickr\nDid the State Let Down the Grenfell Families?\nSix months on from the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower, the national equality body has launched an inquiry into whether the state failed both victims\u2026\nDo We Even Need Human Rights Anymore?\nToday is International Human Rights Day, in recognition of the 10 December 1948, when the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human\u2026\nMeasuring The Impact of the UK's First Human Rights City\nIn May 2017, York became famous for something other than Vikings and chocolate, declaring itself as the UK's first 'human rights city'.",

        "raw_content": "7.2. The for Loop\u00b6\nBack when we drew the images with turtle it could be quite tedious. If we wanted to draw a square then we had to move then turn, move then turn, etc. etc. four times. If we were drawing a hexagon, or an octagon, or a polygon with 42 sides, it would have been a nightmare to duplicate all that code.\nA basic building block of all programs is to be able to repeat some code over and over again. We refer to this repetitive idea as iteration. In this section, we will explore some mechanisms for basic iteration.\nIn Python, the for statement allows us to write programs that implement iteration. As a simple example, let\u2019s say we have some friends, and we\u2019d like to send them each an email inviting them to our party. We don\u2019t quite know how to send email yet, so for the moment we\u2019ll just print a message for each friend.\nfor name in [\"Joe\", \"Amy\", \"Brad\", \"Angelina\", \"Zuki\", \"Thandi\", \"Paris\"]: print(\"Hi\", name, \"Please come to my party on Saturday!\")\nTake a look at the output produced when you press the run button. There is one line printed for each friend. Here\u2019s how it works:\nname in this for statement is called the loop variable or, alternatively, the iterator variable.\nThe list of names in the square brackets is the sequence over which we will iterate.\nLine 2 is the loop body. The loop body is always indented. The indentation determines exactly what statements are \u201cin the loop\u201d. The loop body is performed one time for each name in the list.\nOn each iteration or pass of the loop, first a check is done to see if there are still more items to be processed. If there are none left (this is called the terminating condition of the loop), the loop has finished. Program execution continues at the next statement after the loop body.\nIf there are items still to be processed, the loop variable is updated to refer to the next item in the list. This means, in this case, that the loop body is executed here 7 times, and each time name will refer to a different friend.\nAt the end of each execution of the body of the loop, Python returns to the for statement, to see if there are more items to be handled.\nThe overall syntax is for <loop_var_name> in <sequence>:\nBetween the words for and in, there must be a variable name for the loop variable. You can\u2019t put a whole expression there.\nA colon is required at the end of the line\nAfter the word in and before the colon is an expression that must evaluate to a sequence (e.g, a string or a list or a tuple). It could be a literal, or a variable name, or a more complex expression.\nNext Section - 7.3. Flow of Execution of the for Loop",

We are proud to partner with Buddhism for Social Development Action (BSDA) on their initiative, Education for All.\nFounded in 2005 by a group of Buddhist monks, BSDA is a nonprofit organization based in Kampong Cham, Cambodia, that has grown substantially and boasts over 5,000 beneficiaries in five provinces. The Education for All initiative aims to provide vulnerable students from all over the country with the resources necessary to keep them in school. Assistance provided by BSDA includes school supplies, remedial educational support, school uniforms, and living stipends for proper nutrition.\nThis year, the initiative will serve 460 students. That\u2019s 460 students protected from the dangerous reality of lacking a primary education. Poverty sometimes forces parents to make hard decisions about how to allot limited resources; reducing daily expenditures and guaranteeing schooling for students means one less thing to worry about for needy families.\nGoing forward, the initiative maintains lofty goals. According to Alexis Simchak, Rustic Pathways\u2019 Cambodia Country Director, \u201cone of [BSDA\u2019s] goals is to be able to provide small loans to the parents of the students to make their business more sustainable for income generation. More income means that they can support and keep their children in school.\u201d Unfortunately, she says, \u201cBSDA is still lacking funds to be able to provide these loans.\u201d\nWith your support, BSDA can continue to grow and serve more students. Less than $350 per year provides a vulnerable, out-of-school child with the support necessary for them to pursue an education. In 2016, our supporters have already raised over $6,000 for this project.",

        "title": "The Appeal of Modular Construction for the Federal Government | SCIF Construction - SCIF Builders | SCIF Global Technologies",
        "raw_content": "Home / SCIF Global Blogs / Jaye Andone / The Appeal of Modular Construction for the Federal Government\nModular construction of federal projects such as SCIFs has a lot of appeal in Congress, since they represent a way of saving on construction costs. SCIFs are also durable structures that have a reduced impact on the environment. The term permanent modular constructions (PMC), a term used in the Appropriations Report Language, has been instituted in the FY2012 Military Construction and Veteran Affairs Appropriations Act. It was introduced to encourage federal agencies to utilize PMC technology whenever possible. Modular SCIF construction provides our customers the flexibility to design a customized turnkey SCIF space to meet all of their mission demands.\nAs stated in the Modular Building Institute blog, \u201cAppropriations Report Language is a key aspect of the appropriations process. Typically, Committee reports focus on congressional priorities by communicating directly with federal agencies areas of concern through the funding mechanism. Report Language explains congressional intent and agencies take them seriously because they must justify their budget requests annually to Congress. Additionally, Report Language can often suggest or direct an Agency to perform certain actions.\u201d\nIn order to level the playing field for PMC developers, the Committee has mandated a clear set of standards that takes into consideration a number of design and construction factors. These include:\nBase Realignments\nConsider Alternative Forms of Construction\nThis language is vital to the growth of the PMC industry since it represents the first time that Congress has directed federal agencies to consider alternative forms of construction. This includes modular construction, considered as being on par with traditional construction methods. Historically, the Government Accounting Office indicated that the Department of Defense and other federal agencies routinely based their choice of construction methods more on habit or anecdotal evidence. They are now asked for empirical data when it comes to considering alternative construction methods. This directive could have a significant impact on agencies tasked with federal construction oversight.\n\u201cIn addition to the language included in the FY2013 Military Construction & Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act regarding Permanent Modular Construction, MBI also pursued language encouraging the Department of Veterans Affairs to reexamine their use of Design-Build and whenever practical for the VA to utilize Design-Build, thus allowing all sectors of the construction industry to compete and to benefit from the various advantages Design-Build has to offer.\u201d\nModular construction offers a number of clear advantages to federal agencies, such as reduced construction costs, reduced time to completion, superior quality assurance, and lower life-cycle costs. It is understandable that the Committee encourages the consideration of alternative construction methods. The adoption of Appropriations Report Language helps reduce the scrutiny traditionally given by House Appropriations members to proposals by PMC developers. This, in turn, will save both time and money when it comes to constructing and/or altering federal buildings.\nJaye Andone is CEO of SCIF Global Technologies, a Jacksonville, Florida firm that specializes in designing Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities worldwide.

        "title": "Frequency Epilogue Resolves Canceled CW Series | ScreenRant",
        "raw_content": "The CW\u2019s Frequency Epilogue Resolves Show After Cancelation\nby Meagan Navarro\nThe CW may have dropped the axe on freshman series Frequency, but fans won't have to bid the series adieu without closure. Adapted for television from the 2000 sci-fi thriller film that starred Jim Caviezel and Dennis Quaid, the 13-episode series followed police detective Raimy (Peyton List) in 2016 who found she could communicate via a ham radio with her estranged father, Frank Sullivan (Riley Smith), who died in 1996. The pair work together to try to stop a serial killer known as Nightingale before her mother becomes the latest victim, all while mending their relationship.\nWhile Frequency fans were left with a mostly satisfactory conclusion, there were a few major loose ends left. Police detective Raimy ended the season still engaged and with her mother alive, but with the ham radio broken, Raimy's connection to the past, and therefore her father, were severed. Not only were fans dying to see what became of the relationship between father and daughter, but the mystery behind the Nightingale killer remained unsolved.\nIt appears The CW also longed for a happy conclusion, as they've released a posthumous epilogue that wraps everything up in a tidy bow. The clip, clocking in at under four minutes, allows fans to find out the fates of Raimy, her mother, and Frank. The epilogue reveals that Frank manages to fix the ham radio, which allows Raimy to deliver vital information about the case. It offers the complete happy ending that fans were hoping for, with a final line spoken that will give fans the feels.\nThough the parallel timelines and sci-fi nature of the show could get a bit muddied, Frequency's strength was in its cast. Smith and List grounded the series with stellar performances that kept its limited fanbase tuning in every week, even if no one else did. In the world of television, cancellations are commonplace. Fans don't always get to receive a decent conclusion to the shows they've committed to watching, so The CW has offered a rare gift.\nThe cancellation of Frequency came as no surprise, considering the network never ordered additional episodes beyond the initial 13 that aired through January. The series averaged less than a million viewers on a network that finds its greatest success in DC Comics-based series like Arrow, The Flash, DC\u2019s Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl, and it never quite managed to reach a bigger audience despite critic approval. The only freshman series to receive a renewal was Riverdale, which is also based on a comic book series.\nBetween the cancellation of Frequency and No Tomorrow, and the ending of long-running series Reign and The Vampire Diaries, The CW has a lot of programming to fill for the 2017-2018 season. There are four slots available, and considering the network's current line up, it was likely there would be an addition of a new superhero series - and there is in the form of Black Lightning.\nTags: frequency",

Tom did special effects work on Evil Dead I, II and Army of Darkness and is a friend of Bruce.\nBruce did say during the interview that he and Sam Raimi will be producing the upcoming remake of Evil Dead, but will leave the details to the director since the point is to see a different take on the original material. He joked about having Ashton Kutcher direct and star in the remake, and that if Kutcher wasn't available they'd try to get Ben Affleck, since Ben Stiller or Owen Wilson had already declined. :-)",

Where are you with that diet you started on January 1st, continuing your Job search \u201cafter the Holidays,\u201d or what about all of the other promises you made to yourself at New years such as becoming financially fit, stop cussing or gossiping, etc.? Did you pray about and were you lead to Fast anything over the period of Lent that we\u2019re in? That, too, is coming to a close in just a couple of short days! So, are you maintaining or did you ever get to the maintenance period and find your groove? If you have, how will you go above and beyond the maintenance period? Why stop at 20lbs when you really have 50 to lose? Why only send 10 Resumes when there are 40 companies that could be looking for your skill set? Or, have you just settled and given up on changing your vocabulary, your thoughts and the way you go back to your old regular routine, because no one is going to care about the \u201cnew you?\u201d If you don\u2019t hold yourself accountable to your goals, more specifically your faith, how do you think God considers your choice when you stray away from Him?\nI\u2019m not writing this to make you or anyone feel badly about yourself. I\u2019ve stumbled and lost progress in various decisions and goals. We all have. None of us are perfect, but that is the beauty of having Christ in us and working through you to change you everyday into His image! See from the book of Lamentations below:\nLamentations 3:22-23 English Standard Version (ESV)\n22 The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;[a] his mercies never come to an end;\n23 they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.\nI\u2019ve been pondering this post for 4 or 5 days trying to bring it together. I\u2019ve had the general idea for a good week, but have been wanting/waiting to hear from God on the process of developing the words to put here. In all honesty, I have not truly committed myself to praying over it. A few days ago, I had lots of ideas and thoughts that seemed like they would be a good fit, but was not at a place and time that I could write anything down or make notes. Today, during some of my Tweeting and Retweeting of myself, I was blessed to receive some correction from a friend on my Timeline and I am grateful that I was in a place with the Lord that I could freely receive the correction and not be offended. I think that is a huge turning-point that many people miss because we can become easily offended if someone \u201crises-up\u201d against something we said.\nBelow is the RT (Retweet) of what I said earlier\u2026\n\u201c@scrupulousgirl If u want to go to Hell, all u have to do is disbelieve God\u2019s Word. Hell is the complete & total absence of God. There is no goodness there.\u201d\nWhile it is true that Hell is the complete and total absence of God, scaring anyone into an invitation or decision for Salvation is not the way God wants us to lead people to Him.\nHere is the loving response that my friend kindly corrected me with:\n\u201c@nailingitdown @scrupulousgirl Scaring people w/Hell is one of the major errors of the Christian faith. Yeshua draws with cords of love not chains of fear.\u201d\nGod wants us to have relationship with other Christians so that we can build one another up in the faith, and that is exactly what I felt this afternoon. I have Retweeted the above a few times over the past several weeks and no one, until now, ever said anything. Did they also not know any better or were simply ignoring it and hoping I would find correction on my own? So, here I am, with the opportunity to ponder and mediate on what other things I may have Tweeted or said to others that may have been misleading or misrepresenting the love of God, His Truth and Peace and distancing people from the faith instead of drawing them in. I now have the option of going above and beyond maintaining where I am right now, or falling back into the comfort of my old ways prior to this season as we embrace the Easter celebration coming up. I choose to embrace the lesson and to be stronger in my Faith through this day\u2019s exercise. God\u2019s mercies are new every morning, according to Lamentations 3:23. It isn\u2019t too late to start fresh tomorrow and get your groove back.\n\u201c@scrupulousgirl We are on the edge of inheriting God\u2019s glory! #Jesus will come back like a thief in the night. Are you ready for His return? #KingdomFocus\u201c\n@nailingitdown I want to graciously thank you for your patience with me and our conversations through Twitter. I always delight in having your input and could not have completed this Post without your kind correction. Thank you for your time and brotherly love in Christ today! #Blessings\nHave you ever experienced a Divine appointment? Maybe it was a chance meeting for a new job opportunity, making a new friend or relocating your residence and having a special new neighbor. I have been fortunate enough to have (2) of the (3); my job and good neighbors. Sadly, my favorite neighbors recently moved about 1/2 hour or so away. People often get frustrated when they don\u2019t hear from God, but what they fail to recognize and understand is that all the while you\u2019re waiting for your break-through, God is working \u201cbehind-the-scenes\u201d to bring things together for your good and to further His plan, His perfect Will for your life.\n\u201c@scrupulousgirl #SayThis I am confident in who I am in Christ. I believe what God\u2019s Word says about me. I will not put myself down because then I am in agreement with the devil and his schemes. I find my identity in Christ, not in what I do or through my possessions. #Identity #Image\u201c\nSince I began writing this Blog, I have had the fortune of seeing God reveal His plan for me. I am eager with anticipation for what is to come! This evening, I have an appointment for something that God has been speaking to me on for a while. Initially, the appointment was not to be scheduled until some time mid-late April. A few nights ago, I received an Email stating there had been a cancellation and they wanted to know if I was available Friday 03/23. I could have had other things planned, but whatever those plans were, I would have personally sidelined them to make this appointment. I know that God\u2019s hand is in this opportunity so I responded immediately and let the Scheduling coordinator know that I am available.\nI thank God for what is in store this evening and I ask that you would please pray for me that I will experience His peace, compassion, hope and healing for what is to come through this appointment tonight.\nProverbs 4:18 Amplified Bible (AMP)\n18But the path of the [uncompromisingly] just and righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines more and more (brighter and clearer) until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day [to be prepared].\nJames 1:4 Amplified Bible (AMP)\n4But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and do a thorough work, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully developed [with no defects], lacking in nothing.\nRecently there have been waves of reinforcements from Holy Spirit in various areas of growth for me. I\u2019ve seen Followers on my Twitter Timeline edify something I said and vice versa, or read a few verses in the Bible, talk with my mom about something, even watching and listening to something on TBN. God is GOOD! He knows what we need when it is needed. He is always on time and going ahead of us to prepare and steady our steps for growth, when we seek His Good and perfect Will for our lives.\nIf you knew me in person, you would know that I\u2019m typically pretty shy. God is pressing me to be more bold! As the Author & Finisher of my faith, He is chasing after me to tell people His story through my life. I have been mostly a loner since my early childhood. I\u2019ve learned to enjoy my own company. I have been rejected, bullied and teased most of my life. Until the past few years, I was a doormat. People took advantage of me and I didn\u2019t know how, could not or would not make a stand for myself. I\u2019ve briefly mentioned self-image issues before, but I will say that in this short 4 or 5 weeks since Lent began, my confidence, because of my relationship with Jesus, has grown by leaps and bounds. My spirit is fully awake and ready to receive what He is calling me to do. He has been patiently waiting for me to completely grasp His outstretched hand and trust and obey His plans for me.\n\u201c@scrupulousgirl: I start and end my day in conversation with El Olam, the Everlasting God. Through the Holy Spirit, I am guided into all Truth, Peace & Hope.\u201d\nFor many years, I wondered how and where I could find or locate a Mentor. Life Coaches often want a fee for their time, and Mentors really are not friends. I had often tried to make friends my mentors. God made Jesus our Perfect Role model. He is the Friend we should be chasing after, instead of people! I didn\u2019t know where to find other Eagle Christians, because I had been wounded so deeply by people who claimed to be Christ followers. They were more or less self-seeking individuals rather than helping to lift others up in the faith. I\u2019ve written some Tweets lately that press people who have been long in the faith to not give up. We need to keep on pressing-in and running our race so that we can help lift newcomers into the Kingdom along with the back-slidden to rise up and hold them accountable as well.\n1 Corinthians 2:16 (AMP)\n16For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.\nI saw a Sermon on Mentorship, this past weekend, from Pastor Ron Carpenter of the Redemption Outreach Center in Greenville, South Carolina. Over the past couple of days, the Holy Spirit has been speaking to me that instead of finding my own Mentor that I can BE the Mentor. My Mom pointed out that I\u2019m already doing that via my Blog as well as through Twitter. As I was walking my cats earlier (oh yea there\u2019s that story I haven\u2019t told yet HA!) this morning, I was praising God and talking to the Holy Spirit, thanking Him for His goodness and He spoke into my Spirit that I am in His perfect Will. I\u2019ve been feeling it, but hadn\u2019t firmly heard that from Him until this morning.\n\u201cWhen promotion comes, people misinterpret you, because your responsibilities change. You can\u2019t enter a new life & have old responsibilities.\u201d Ron Carpenter\nI know there is much work ahead of me and I am becoming more comfortable with that. I know that Satan will attempt to cause blinding, aggressive attacks and I must be ready for him at all times. Jesus has assured me that when I wear the Armor of God, I will be protected. It\u2019s imperative that we keep watch at all times! Satan is never idle! We must pray over ourselves and our families, possessions and property all of the time. The more I get out and practice praying for people out loud and telling people about God\u2019s love for them, either on the phone or through Tweets, Email, Texting, Instant messaging, etc., it will become easier. I thank God for this call and opportunity that I can be the Mentor to others that I was seeking so long. Jesus wants me to step out of the boat and come out to Him in the deep. While I\u2019m stepping, I will be very careful to not take my eyes off of Him.\nAbba, I praise and thank You for this opportunity You have set before me and look forward to the challenge of where You are leading me. I trust that You have gone ahead to prepare and steady the path. I will use my faith and go as You assign me to walk. Selah!\n28 \u201cCome to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.\nIsn\u2019t it refreshing when Holy Spirit wakes you up early to spend some time with Him? Growing up, I was never a Morning person. Some days, I still feel I\u2019m not, but that part of my life, I believe, is beginning to come to a close. Holy Spirit has been working with me on that and I am becoming more grateful for it. As I go through the day, I really try to stay focused on having an open-ended conversation with Him, because He is my help and if I get distracted, I know He is there to guide me and comfort me when needed.\n\u201c@scrupulousgirl A heavy burden may be a sign that you\u2019re chasing after the wrong thing. Let Jesus carry the load. His burden is light. #See Matthew 11:28-29\u2033\nSometimes, while I\u2019m busy focused on work or tasks at home, the Holy Spirit will reveal to me a burden that I\u2019ve been carrying that has gone on too long and I need to let go of. Part of managing our lives is the ability to get our attention and display His patience that passes our understanding! The good news is that while I have been acknowledging the issue that was made very clear to me this morning to let go of, I\u2019m finally ready to put it in it\u2019s place and let Jesus carry the load. He never asks us to carry the weight of the world on our shoulders, no matter what the issue at hand might be. The more important task is that once we give up the problem, we need to be very careful to not take it back.\nBefore going to sleep last night, I watched Pastor Steven Furtick, from Elevation Church, via Roku, preaching his current Sermon Series, Gray Matter. The topic was He\u2019s Big Enough for Both (Dumb Dichotomies) One of Pastor Furtick\u2019s quotes that I took from the Sermon and Tweeted is \u201cIs your obedience to God conditional or unconditional?\u201d This morning, as I was reviewing some of my Tweets from yesterday and last night, I got to thinking more indepth about that quote. I think it applies here easily. If I take back the burden I lifted off of myself this morning, that means I don\u2019t trust God to handle it. What I\u2019d like to see in the future is His blessing and reward, because I know that He can and I need to continue trusting that He is able to do far more than we can think or ask!\n20Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]\u2013\nIs there anything that you\u2019re holding on to that you need to let go of and trust Jesus with it? He did not create us to carry any burdens alone. He is our comforter and gives us peace, joy, understanding. What\u2019s the worst thing that could happen if you trust your Savior to handle the things you cannot change? Mark 1:41, Matthew 8:3 and Luke 5:13 all give an account of where Jesus stretched out His hand to the Leper and cleansed the man. I encourage you to go read the full text of this story and learn about how Jesus is willing to stretch out His hand to us to show compassion and willingness to help those in need. Remember, once you let go of something and give it to Him, don\u2019t take it back. You might block your blessing and Jesus gives fantastic gifts! Selah!\nI haven\u2019t written in almost (10) days. It feels a little odd to be here this morning. I don\u2019t feel like I\u2019m out in the Wilderness, because I know that the Wilderness is not God\u2019s destination for me. I am highly intuitive and very self-aware of myself in my own environment, knowing what is causing me to be off kilter. I am also someone who internalizes everything and usually slow to speak, providing I haven\u2019t allowed my emotions to get the best of me. That is something I\u2019ve really been asking God to help me be less of lately, emotional. I hate that I wear my heart on my sleeve. I rather be more logical and loving, caring, but able to manage myself through God\u2019s eye with His hand on me. That\u2019s the change I want to be in myself. Less of me, more of His good work. He is the Author and Finisher of my faith. (See Hebrews 12:2, Amplified & Matthew 11:28)\n\u201c@scrupulousgirlGod knows how to manage us & can get our attention so that we stay focused on Him. If we don\u2019t have faith, He will work through our weakness.\u201d\nWhen you\u2019re not saved, you have less ability to stabilize yourself. People are searching for stability through co-dependency on other people, in drugs and alcohol or sex and other addictions; gambling, being a workaholic, shopping, food, etc. Having relationship with Jesus keeps the environment stable. If a \u201cstorm\u201d invades your life, He is there to protect and comfort you. If you use drugs and alcohol as your comfort it simply drains you of yourself. You stop being you and allow the poison that consumes you to run your life. Shopping addictions can bankrupt you, leaving you in debt and unable to financially care for yourself and or your family. If we take on too much of the World, it leaves less space for the Light of the World to come in.\n1 John 1:5-6 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.\nYou may or may not know that one of my favorite Devotional books is \u2018Pursuit of His Presence,\u2019 by Kenneth & Gloria Copeland. As I was reading the March 16th devotion last night before I went to sleep, several things came together, personally, of spiritual conversation of things I had either seen Tweeted, read about or heard through preachers on TBN the past few days. The \u2018Pursuit of His Presence\u2019 book is setup so that every other day, one Devotion is written by Kenneth and the following day by Gloria and vice versa. 1 John 1:5-6 (above) was the segue into the writing. The title is \u201cNo Shades of Gray.\u201d Kenneth writes, \u201cThe sad thing is, many Christians who are walking in unforgiveness don\u2019t know they\u2019re in darkness. They think because they read their Bibles and say \u201cAmen\u201d at church, they\u2019re in fellowship with God.\u201d\nGod knows how to manage us and He knows how to get our attention. I meditated on the devotion above for a bit, as there is small group of people in my life that I need to be more merciful toward and forgive their treatment of me (not ignore it, but forgive and release it), but at the same time careful that I don\u2019t allow them to weed out the Light in my life and cause me to start walking in shades of gray. We can carry our Light (Jesus) with us every place we go, but we don\u2019t have to conform to the people around us and dig into and take on their mess in order to fit in. If you don\u2019t fit in some place, it\u2019s Ok to step back and reexamine your position with that person or group of people.\nI had to laugh because God really does know exactly what we need. I don\u2019t read all of my devotions every single day. I like to look at different ones and sometimes I don\u2019t even read the one specifically marked by the Author for that Date on the Calendar, but yesterday\u2019s Joyce Meyer March 16th devotion from her \u2018New Day, New You\u2019 book spoke heavily to me. I read it directly after the Copeland writing. The segue verse to the devotion was Galations 5:16, below.\nEarlier in the week, I had listened to Joyce Meyer and John Hagee through some of their shows on TBN. What was reinforced for me is that God doesn\u2019t want us to have Him sitting on the sidelines of our lives. We can\u2019t operate in our own strength. He didn\u2019t build us for that. He did not make us robots. We have Free will to make choices, but without His Divine protection, without going deeper in our walk with the King of Kings, we will get off balance. During this transition towards Easter, I\u2019ve become very aware of things I wished I had paid more attention to on a level I feel like I should have been conscious of years ago. There are times where I feel like I still have my Training wheels on, and I think that\u2019s Ok, but Jesus has called on us to get out of the boat and focus on Him!\nGod did not call us to be perfect. We\u2019re all at different levels of faith or no faith, in life. I\u2019m in my early 40s and I was saved at 15 years old. You might think I ought to have no balancing problems, but I do. I\u2019m still learning, every day to allow Him to transform me into the woman He has called me to be, and I am enjoying getting to know that girl. If I allow Satan to keep me busy, I can\u2019t hear from the Holy Spirit and if Jesus calls on me to step out of the boat, where is my faith? It must be strengthened in Him so that I don\u2019t become like Peter and get distracted. Philippians 4:13 is one of my favorite verses. It says in the Amplified, \u201cI have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who [a]infuses inner strength into me; I am [b]self-sufficient in Christ\u2019s sufficiency].\u201d When we walk in Christ and stay at His side, we can pull others up in their faith or lead them to faith, if they are unsaved and or back-slidden.\nMy encouragement for you today is to remind you to not become so busy you can\u2019t hear from the Holy Spirit. Where will your measure of faith be when Jesus comes to gather us up? He will come like a Thief in the night. No one knows the hour.\n\u201cFocus on the Lord. Your breakthrough is on the way! When frustration comes on you, press in & stay calm. Blessing is coming for your obedience\u201d Beth @scrupulougirl\nIs it Half-time or Time for a Time-out?\nPosted on March 7, 2012\tby scrupulousgirl\nHabakkuk 2:2-3 Amplified Bible (AMP)\n2And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and engrave it so plainly upon tablets that everyone who passes may [be able to] read [it easily and quickly] as he hastens by. 3For the vision is yet for an appointed time and it hastens to the end [fulfillment]; it will not deceive or disappoint. Though it tarry, wait [earnestly] for it, because it will surely come; it will not be behindhand on its appointed day.\nAre you a planner or do you prefer to do things on the spur of the moment? I am a planner. I prefer to have things planned out as much as possible in advance so that certain expectations are well known. Doing things on the spur of the moment can be invigorating and bring welcomed relief from the mundane tasks of everyday living. Sometimes, situations arise and you have no choice but to respond and act spontaneously. Those are the times that test your patience and open up opportunities to model the Fruits of the Spirit (Galations 5:22-23) and engage our Spiritual armor (Ephesians 6:10-18) to those around you.\n16 In everything the prudent acts with knowledge, but a fool flaunts his folly.\nRecently, I have started realizing that I\u2019ve been praying over myself more regularly, specifically to keep Satan out of my thoughts while I transition through Lent and stay on top of the tasks I have embraced that the Holy Spirit spoke to me a few weeks ago. One of those things being to stay away from Commercial television. Last night, I called a Time-out and ended up watching \u2018The Biggest Loser.\u2019 I normally watch that show, but this time after it was over, I felt \u201cdifferent,\u201d for lack of a better word. After some meditation before sleep, I realized that if I don\u2019t stay on top of where my focus needs to be, if I go back to my old comfortable place of not thinking about and paying attention to what I take in consciously or subconsciously, it allows Satan to open the door and put me right back where I was before Lent began.\nPsalm 37:5 Amplified Bible (AMP)\n5Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass.\nLent began on Ash Wednesday, February 22 and Easter will come up on April 8th. Today is March 7th so as I look out into the future and seek the Holy Spirit for continued guidance during this time and look back seeing how faithful He has been to me on many levels, I am grateful for my Time-out from last night, but I know that I must press-on. There is no time for Half-time. Paul wrote in Philippians 3:13-15\nBut one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus 15 All of us, then, who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you.\nIn a previous post, I noted that I am a self-proclaimed News junkie. I love to be keyed in to Current events and be able to engage someone in conversation if the opportunity came up (yes, even people who are considered loners enjoy the occasional conversation now and again). What this Fast is teaching and reminding me of is that it\u2019s ok to unplug from all of the stuff that takes our focus off of God and not let Satan keep me so busy that it destroys my walk or hinders my time with the Holy Spirit.\nYou may be at a point where you need to call Half-time on yourself vs a Time-out or maybe the Holy Spirit is speaking to you and He is the one calling you out. It is important that we are alert and awakened in our spirit to be aware of that call! A Half-time is a break where you get away from the game (like going on Vacation) and if you\u2019re the underdog, you regroup, step-back and get your focus back on the task at hand, which is obviously winning the game. During a Time-out, the Coach might put someone else into the game to take over your position while you take a brief break or redirect you to a different position or confirm with you that you understand the instructions of the play that is being carried out to get you to the goal.\nWhen you come to salvation through Jesus, and He gives you grace and removes condemnation (Romans 8:1) you are better able to stay refreshed in your spirit and continue on. Because Jesus has left earth to go prepare a place for us in Heaven, He left the Holy Spirit as our Helper, until He returns to gather us up. As you move through life from periods of peaks and valleys or Time-outs and Half-times, God is going to prune you and take things away from the old you and replace them with His characteristics (Please see John Chapter 15). As you press-in to the Holy Spirit during your Time-outs, let Him deal with you spontaneously and reveal His plan to you. We all get impatient at times when we don\u2019t know what play to carry out next, but we have God\u2019s Word in the Bible. He knows best how to guide and direct our steps, much like that of a Coach in a Football game. He also gives us steps on how to pray and protect ourselves in his Word. I mentioned both Galatians 5:22-23 & Ephesians 6:10-18 earlier, but if you need help with how to pray, see Matthew 6:5-14.\nIf you\u2019re facing a decision that you know you can\u2019t make clearly in your own strength, instead of going and talking to 3 or 4 people about it, how about taking the Holy Spirit up on a Time-out and spending some time in prayer and ask Him to help you through the situation? Leave your concerns with the King of Kings because He is your adopted Father and He wants to show you the way.\n1 One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer\u2014at three in the afternoon. 2 Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. 3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. 4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, \u201cLook at us!\u201d 5So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. 6 Then Peter said, \u201cSilver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.\u201d 7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man\u2019s feet and ankles became strong.\nPeople are searching. Single people, Married people, Toddlers and Retirees. We\u2019re all seeking to fill a void that only God can fill. It doesn\u2019t matter what season of life you categorize yourself in; no matter what socio-economic status, age or educational background, we are all seekers.\nOutside of seeking a deeper walk and relationship with Jesus, my Savior, I seek out authenticity in people. Growing-up, I was held to a high expectation, a certain standard; one at times I could not sustain. Jesus sustains me. I\u2019ve found throughout my life that I have held people to a high standard, because I projected my dogmatic, idealistic, sometimes unrealistic standards on others and often that drove people away.\nOn Sunday afternoon, after having viewed an On-demand Sermon by Craig Groeschel with LifeChurch.tv, I had a great conversation with one of my neighbors about something I had learned from Craig\u2019s sermon. The gist of the message dealt with restoration vs relief. It is so refreshing to hear a Pastor speak on something that makes so much sense and be able to bring it full-circle in a Biblical format and stand on Biblical principles!\nI chose the Acts 3:1-7 verses above as my starting point because that is what Pastor Craig based his sermon on. It is about helping people. As Christ followers, God uses us to be the conduit to Him to help others find restoration from their problems. We need to stop relieving people of their temporary issues that keep them stuck and in bondage to the same issues, sometimes for years! Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, does the same for Christians.\n\u201cRe\u201d means again, backwards, back or anew, back to the starting place. God is a God of Renewal. Meditate on these words as you think about God. Rebirth, Recompense, Restored, Revived, Refilled, Receive, Reconcile, Refines, Redeems, Refreshes, Rejoices, Resurrects, Repairs\u201d -Joyce Meyer\nFor instance, if my friend Jaime has a problem with money and I gave him $50 to relieve him of a certain financial commitment, that isn\u2019t teaching him anything about how to rise above his circumstances so that the next time he has a financial need he is able to handle it on his own. If I take the time to counsel him on how to save money and share some verses from the Bible about how God expects us to handle money, that begins the process of restoration for Jaime and also benefits me, because the entire process has allowed me to point Jaime to Christ, given God the glory and stabilized both of our Christian walks and our friendship in Christ.\nToday, I would encourage you to seek out the Holy Spirit in prayer and ask Him if there is a place in your life where you need restoration vs relief. Write down the definitions of restoration and relief and make a short journal of some items that God is calling you to work on. All of us have emotional, financial, family, work-related and personal areas that we need to dig into and face head on and allow the King of Kings to restore, revive and repair. Let\u2019s purpose to stop temporarily relieving ourselves of problems that keep creeping back up in our spirits and allow the Holy Spirit to help dig-up the roots of frustration, turmoil, guilt and the condemnation of heavy spirits that are keeping us in bondage and learn to give the past to the One who isn\u2019t in that grave anymore! Jesus is moving. The World is awakened! If you\u2019re a Christ follower, I pray that you will allow some healing and restoration to happen so that you can be the conduit for the saved or unsaved and lead them to the God who restores!\nPastor Craig gave a few short prayer examples (below) to meditate on. This is only a starting point, but through the power of the Holy Spirit, I pray that you will stop seeking relief and come to a place where you\u2019re able to put the past where it belongs and move forward into a new season of Christ where no condemnation exists. He isn\u2019t keeping a list of all of your sin. God wants all of us to be restored! Will you become like Peter and John and help someone in their time of need?\n\u201cGod, help me give people what they truly need, not just what they want.\nGod, Help me to stay out of your way by not continually rescuing people from the consequences of their circumstances.\nGod, Help me remember that I am in need, too, and that you are always the answer.\u201d Pastor Craig Groeschel\nPsalm 70:5 (AMP) But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my Help and my Deliverer; O Lord, do not tarry!\nA New Dream from a Day Dreamer\nCanopy of His Love\nThe Point of Forgiveness\nI am a Whosoever in Christ Jesus!\nHe is faithful; He closes the deal!\nRepaired by El Roi \u2013 The God Who Sees Me\nI was the Black sheep\nWho Is Scratching Your Back?\nLent February 22, 2012 \u2013 April 7, 2012\nYahweh Rophe \u2013 The Lord Who Heals",

        "raw_content": "Fiction, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Writing\nExistential Prose: A Train\u2019s Journey by Boris Glikman\nI live in a train. I have food, warmth, a place to sleep.\nI feel certain that I am its sole occupant, for if there were anyone else on it I would know by now, as I have lived in this train my entire life.\nWhere it is heading to, I can not tell. On occasions, it stops entirely or even begins to move backwards, but I can never get off for all the exits are hermetically sealed.\nIn earlier times, I cherished the hope that the train contains something that would help me escape it, this unwieldy metal hulk, and separate my existence from its course. I searched exhaustively for a button that would throw open all the doors simultaneously or a lever that will allow me to prise open a window. Yet I dared not to go through every carriage and compartment, partly out of fear that I would find nothing of use and that thereby all of my hopes would be terminally dashed.\nI can only perceive the outside world as it appears through the windows of the train. I know not how veracious my perceptions are, for it may well be that the windows are made of distorting glass. I often wonder what it would be like to experience life directly.\nOccasionally, I see other trains go nearby and catch a glimpse of their solitary dwellers. My train might run parallel to theirs for a short distance but then the tracks diverge and I never see them again. There may be time enough to wave or shout out a few quick words but the words get mangled by the noise of wheels on the tracks.\nOnce, and oh, how the memory of that event heartens me still, my train travelled close to another with a young woman occupant for a considerable period of time, maybe as long as two minutes. I put my palms upon the window and spread my fingers and the girl did the same in her carriage. Our hands were perfectly aligned, and despite the glass between us, I was sure that I could feel her body warmth.\nI can not jettison my dream that I will see her again, that our trains will run side by side forever and we will never be apart. In every train that I see, I continue to search out for her sublime features, yet at the same time I am wracked by doubts as to how I appeared to her, whether the windows of her train distorted her vision of me.\nDoes my train have a driver? Is there any purpose to its voyage? Is it moving of its own volition and choosing its own way through the land or has its journey been pre-planned by some unknown hand? Is there a Master Scheduler who has organised the timetables and the routes of every train? Shall I direct my prayers to him to allow me to see that girl again? These are the questions; the answers to which I am still searching.\nWith time, I grow to accept having one\u2019s existence tied up with the train. The desire to leave the train now appears to be no less preposterous and unnatural than the idea of a foetus trying to make its way through the world, a walking miscarriage. Existence outside would be so precarious and haphazard, without protection from the elements and other vagaries of fate. The train gives me solid cover, carries me forward, brings certainty to my life.\nThere may be things in the unexplored compartments that would make my journey more meaningful and fulfilling, things that would allow me to grow as a person. For all I know, treasures and tools, placed there especially for me, might be waiting for my discovery.\nBut lulled by the rhythm of the train upon the tracks, I remain seated in my seat for hours, days, weeks, years on end. I look out of the window and watch the world go by, not moving, indeed afraid to move, so accustomed have I become to seeing things from this vantage point. In my deluded periods, I imagine that I can influence the train\u2019s course and destination just by wishing for it hard enough.\nLately, I\u2019ve been seeing vaguely familiar landscapes. Is the train taking me to the place whence it commenced its voyage and will my journey then be over? Will there be someone waiting for me when the train pulls into its last station, someone that knows where and when my train will make its final stop? Perhaps it will be the Master Scheduler himself and he will then explain to me the purpose of my voyage and why my journey took this particular route.\nI live in a train. Although I have food, warmth, a place to sleep, sometimes a feeling comes over me that I have nothing at all, but I quickly push it away.\nA TRAIN\u2019S JOURNEY: Further Interpretations and Ideas by Boris Glikman\nIt\u2019s true that the most obvious interpretation of this story is that it is about isolation and alienation from society. However, there is another possible interpretation of this story, namely that this is an extended allegory about physical existence, the train being a metaphor for the body and being stuck in it, the windows of the train (which are possibly made of distorting glass) being the unreliable senses that are the only way we can perceive the outside world, the unexplored compartments that might hold the tools needed for liberation are the unexplored areas of the mind and the journey itself as an allegory for life, not knowing if it has been pre-planned. etc.\nSo, this story actually works as an allegory on several levels, for not only is it an allegory about isolation, but it\u2019s also an allegory about the deep philosophical problems of solipsism, the unreliability of our senses, of how we could ever be sure if there\u2019s anything out there and it\u2019s not our mind that\u2019s making it all up, predestination, free will, the meaning of life, of whether there is a God who has pre-planned our lives, etc.\nTrain as a symbol of destiny that carries us forward, despite ourselves and over which we have no control, no control over its direction, the route it takes, whether its route has already been pre-determined and we are helpless to change it, its destination point, when it comes to a stop or how fast it moves.\nOne is destined to be forever alone, for we all just pass each other momentarily in our own trains and then continue along our divergent train tracks. The most you can hope for is a fleeting connection with another being. We cannot connect with anyone; everything and everyone just passes us by and we are unable to make any meaningful or long-term connections with anyone. People and things just pass us by in our lives, you can\u2019t/don\u2019t have any control over them and they are never seen again. Life just passes you by, you can\u2019t stop or control it. Each and every day we are closer to reaching the terminus, the terminal/final station of the train.\n\u201cIn my deluded periods, I imagine that I can influence the train\u2019s course and destination just by wishing for it hard enough.\u201d \u2013 an allegory for trying to affect, control and influence one\u2019s destiny/life through praying, by wishing for it hard enough. Not by doing anything, but just by desiring it hard enough, deluding oneself that one can change one\u2019s life/destiny just by wishing for it or praying for it hard enough.\n\u201cBut lulled by the rhythm of the train upon the tracks, I remain seated in my seat for hours, days, weeks, years on end.\u201d \u2013 symbolises the acceptance and resignation that comes with age, just weariness and loss of desire to change anything or change one\u2019s life.\n\u201cI look out of the window and watch the world go by, not moving, indeed afraid to move, so accustomed have I become to seeing things from this vantage point.\u201d \u2013 being afraid of change and so not changing our lives or our perspectives because we have become so used to particular lifestyles and we take comfort and security from that stability and consistency and so are loathe and afraid to change it in any way, even if the life we have chosen leaves a lot to be desired, is not ideal or is actually harming us in some way.\nThe glass between the man and the woman represents the social conventions, the pride and the ego, the prejudices, the unfounded fears, the preconceived ideas and the pre-judgements, the non-caring and selfishness, the rush of life and all the other things that stop people from establishing meaningful, friendly, loving connections with one another. The fact that the glass is transparent (so that the woman and the man can clearly see each other), invisible and impenetrable only accentuates further the parallel to real life in which invisible barriers prevent people from making real, authentic connections with one another.\nThe empty train that the protagonist lives in can symbolise the emptiness of our lives, whether physical emptiness, i.e. isolation from others, or emotional/inner vacuum/emptiness. As the train can be a symbol of the body/mind as described above, its emptiness can clearly represent the emotional/mental/innert vacuum of our lives.\nA TRAIN\u2019S JOURNEY: Interpretations from Other Readers\n\u201cOne other interpretation of A Train\u2019s Journey could be that the narrator just died but doesn\u2019t know it yet, as in the movies \u201cGhost\u201d and \u201cThe Sixth Sense\u201d and \u201cThe Lovely Bones.\u201d So he lives between two worlds, life and death, and he crosses another train where there is a woman living in the same two worlds.\u201d\n\u201cI read the Train story, and though I found it beautifully written, it left me with a feeling of great sadness and loneliness (probably the feeling you intended to convey). I feel that the existential philosophy conveyed by that story is one of futility and impotence in the face of an incomprehensible universe, over which we have no power and against which we are totally helpless.\u201d\n\u201cMy interpretation of the story is a long metaphor about life. Why are we here? What sense is there to be here? What\u2019s the purpose of our life on this earth? On the Universe? We are born knowing nothing and we will die knowing nothing. We are born owing nothing and we will die the same way. Even in the middle of millions of people, we are alone in our own self but we can sometimes connect with another human being, even if it is for a very short time.\u201d\n\u201cA Train\u2019s Journey is such a great story. I catch the train regularly for work now, and always catch myself thinking of it as a metaphor for life\u2019s journey and the choices we make.\u201d\n\u201cIntriguing but sad as I feel this is a lost soul from an aborted fetus.\u201d\n\u201cI believe, at one time or another, we have all felt like the train in this story, trapped in the vacuum, we call our lives.\u201d\n\u201cFeeling like you\u2019re different from others and trapped inside your own world in your head. Thinking you are the only one to feel this way and to be in this situation and on the very rare occasion meeting someone who is possibly just the same. But this \u2018someone\u2019 usually just comes and goes because they are following their own path, their own journey, in their own train.\u201d\n\u201cTrain tracks represent your path in life. Tracks can change, take turns and lead you to things you never experienced before. But if you\u2019re not in control of the train, if you\u2019re only a passenger, then your life is not in your hands. You can choose to let this train take you on a random journey or take your life in your own hands and lead the train. Stop the train when you need to. Change the tracks when you have an option to do so and take the path you believe is right at any point in time. The other carriages may also be full of other passengers in this story. But I don\u2019t think so. I think it\u2019s your own train. It\u2019s your own personal journey through life. You are the only one who can take the conductor\u2019s seat or choose to remain a passenger.\u201d\n\u201cA Train\u2019s Journey is surely a journey through life, highlighting the way we\u2019re all inclined to become fixed in respect of direction and speed of travel, and the way in which we ultimately all find ourselves alone. At the same time, it drew attention to the dubious \u2018reliability\u2019 of our sensory information about the world through which we pass. I felt (as I often do with your stories) that there was a touch of the Aesop in it, though the comparison with Kafka is no less fair.\u201d\n\u201cOne aspect of the train journey I liked is that lately he feels like he is seeing vaguely familiar landscapes. That is a lot like life, like the first time you see cruelty or love, it seems so shocking, and then, as you get older, you see it again and again, it has an air of familiarity about it, still distasteful (for cruelty) or encouraging (for love) but some of the shock value has leached away.

The last two sentences leave me with a sense of sadness, but then, I need to push that feeling away too.\u201d\n\u2018I live in a train.

        "raw_content": "There are many reasons why you may be excited about StarCraft, but a group of dedicated fans hope that with the launch of StarCraft Universe they will bring more players in the virtual universe created by Blizzard.\nThe new MMORPG created by fans inside StarCraft 2 had a very complex story. It was initiated in 2011 as a similar RPG, from a point of view with Diablo. It would be very complex, and to some extent if the planets lined up, it would appear to attract some of the players who have worked so much in World of Warcraft. Unfortunately, when you base the entire game on someone else intellectual property, in this case Blizzard, you can\u2019t expect things to proceed in a very smoothly way. Precisely for this reason, they took many negotiations with the company behind the original StarCraft so that the new MMORPG to materialize and can go out on the market.\nFortunately, the result is now online in open beta format, and those from the Upheaval Arts have every reason to be proud of their performance. Unfortunately, if you are excited about what you see, you can\u2019t be compelled to pay for this experience, given that at the base it is still a Blizzard product. Precisely for this reason it would be good to take advantage of the project Indiegogo to make a donation and to motivate developers to continue the game.\nSince about this game I have no more news for you, allow me to talk you a little bit about StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm, the game behind this project.\nIn this particular game, Kerrigan finds herself in the laboratory, almost disinfected and after several tests, grabs an exchange of saliva with Raynor. She hasn\u2019t forgotten how the emperor wanted to leave her to die in the first StarCraft therefor she wants revenge. At any costs, as you will see further in the game \u2013 I don\u2019t want to give you more details, I am letting you the pleasure to discover by yourself the beauty of this game.\nTo sum up, my little article I want to say to you just one more thing. I am hoping that the project will succeed, but until then we have many StarCraft to enjoy.",

        "raw_content": "Skimping on employee welfare packages\nIt\u2019s no secret that employees who are well \u2013 on the inside as well as the outside \u2013 are more productive at the right times. And that should make sense! Professionals who are healthy can perform their functions day in and day out with very little risk of fatigue, illness, or other physical hindrances. And, if they were able to deal with issues in their lives in a healthy manner, there would be no distractions when it\u2019s time for work.\nEmployee benefits packages are the foremost means through which employers can become involved in their employees\u2019 welfare. Advances in medicine and health science have allowed greater insight into and ability to address risk factors related to work, at any level of physical or mental activity. Benefits packages have also expanded to include insurance and financing assistance for various purposes.\nWhatever the working definition of employee benefits, giving employees these options eases the load on their physical, mental, and even emotional state. Benefits give them that extra feeling of stability and security, like a well-loved blanket at night.\nSo obviously, if this safety net were to be taken away then professionals would be exposed to all sorts of stressors. Sadly, this is still an all too common occurrence even as we end the second decade of the millennium. And the foremost justification for it? The familiar reason of \u201ccost-cutting\u201d.\nLet\u2019s go back to last week\u2019s commentary for a very relevant concept: organizations must invest in their people. It is a concept that gets buried today under organizational management measures that can be categorized as the \u201ceasy way out\u201d.\nA related concept is that businesses are not mere tools. They are collectives made up of people with shared stakes in a venture\u2019s success, and as such have roles to play in bringing about that success. These people have responsibilities to each other; in other words, responsibility in an organization is not only from the bottom going up.\nAn organization that skimps on benefits for its employees is running away from its role in the employment arrangement. How can such organizations be shown the error of their ways?\nThe most effective way to challenge this stubborn subculture is to be thorough in pushing strict compliance with existing labor laws. Compared to decades past, employee benefits are given ample attention in the current body of labor legislation. Our Department of Labor and Employment has also taken an active role in looking into compliance, so anyone from an organization seeking to counter this trend can reach out directly to the DOLE.\nOptions are also aplenty when it comes to potential partners for employee benefits. Medical care and insurance providers can tailor packages specifically for your organization\u2019s budget and the volume and nature of its employees\u2019 needs. So, there\u2019s not excuse to not browse the options.\nStill not convinced that investing in employees through benefits is worth it? We leave you with a simple question: if you don\u2019t have the skill to balance your organization\u2019s expenses and the welfare of your employees, why did you even go into business in the first place?",

        "raw_content": "Business and Labour History Group\nBusiness Schools and History: Proceedings of the Second AAHANZBS Conference - 2010\nTitle: Changing Parental Leave Orientations in New Zealand\nAuthors: Kennedy, Ann-Marie\nRavenswood, Katherine\nPublisher: Business and Labour History Group, The University of Sydney\nCitation: Business Schools and History: proceedings of the second annual conference of AAHANZBS, 16-17 December 2010, The University of Sydney / edited by Greg Patmore\nAbstract: New Zealand first introduced legislation for parental leave in 1980, with the Maternity Leave and Employment Protection Act. This Act provided up to 26 weeks of employment protection and unpaid leave for women only. Eligibility required 18 months of continuous employment of 15 hours or more per week for the same employer. Subsequently, there were two major developments in the legislation. In 1987 the introduction of the Parental Leave and Employment Protection Act gave men the right to parental leave and reduced eligibility requirements. The second major change was in 2002 with the introduction of paid parental leave in the Parental Leave and Employment Protection (Paid Parental Leave) Act. This paper applies Baird\u2019s (2004) typology of maternity leave orientations to analyse the fundamental debates occurring for each of these changes in legislation. An historical approach is used to gain a more comprehensive and holistic understanding of the development of parental leave in New Zealand. Baird\u2019s (2004) typology posits that the debate can be categorised into four orientations. Each represents different stakeholder ideologies towards the Australian debate on paid maternity leave in 2002. This paper illustrates through historical analysis of the social commentary surrounding the aforementioned legislation in New Zealand, that Baird\u2019s typology also accurately portrays the changing orientation towards parental leave and employment protection in New Zealand over time. However, in contrast to Baird\u2019s analysis, where she proposes that the orientations describe the viewpoints of different parties within the debate, we have found that one orientation dominates the attitudes behind each major change in legislation. Specifically, this study finds that the Bargaining orientation encompasses the dominant arguments, mechanisms and outcomes of the 1980 legislation; the Business orientation maps well to the 1987 legislation; and the Welfare orientation conveys the development and implementation of the 2002 legislation. The New equity orientation, due to the underlying push for equality which led to the instigation of parental leave in the first instance, is applicable to all of the legislation to some extent.\nDescription: Not refereed.

        "raw_content": "Automation has been key to tech giant's e-commerce dominance\nAmazon\u2019s machine-learning specialists uncovered a big problem: their new recruiting engine did not like women.\nThe team had been building computer programs since 2014 to review job applicants' resumes with the aim of mechanising the search for top talent, five people familiar with the effort told Reuters.\nAutomation has been key to Amazon's e-commerce dominance, be it inside warehouses or driving pricing decisions.\nThe company's experimental hiring tool used artificial intelligence to give job candidates scores ranging from one to five stars - much like shoppers rate products on Amazon, some of the people said.\n\"Everyone wanted this holy grail,\" one of the people said. \"They literally wanted it to be an engine where I'm going to give you 100 resumes, it will spit out the top five, and we'll hire those.\"\nBut by 2015, the company realised its new system was not rating candidates for software developer jobs and other technical posts in a gender-neutral way.\nThat is because Amazon's computer models were trained to vet applicants by observing patterns in resumes submitted to the company over a 10-year period. Most came from men, a reflection of male dominance across the tech industry.\nIn effect, Amazon's system taught itself that male candidates were preferable. It penalised resumes that included the word \"women's,\" as in \"women's chess club captain.\"\nAnd it downgraded graduates of two all-women's colleges, according to people familiar with the matter. They did not specify the names of the schools.\nThe Seattle company ultimately disbanded the team by the start of last year because executives lost hope for the project, according to the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Amazon's recruiters looked at the recommendations generated by the tool when searching for new hires, but never relied solely on those rankings, they said.\nAmazon declined to comment on the recruiting engine or its challenges, but the company says it is committed to workplace diversity and equality.\nThe company's experiment, which Reuters is first to report, offers a case study in the limitations of machine learning. It also serves as a lesson to the growing list of large companies including Hilton Worldwide Holdings and Goldman Sachs that are looking to automate portions of the hiring process.\nSome 55 per cent of U.S. human resources managers said artificial intelligence, or AI, would be a regular part of their work within the next five years, according to a 2017 survey by talent software firm CareerBuilder.\n\"How to ensure that the algorithm is fair, how to make sure the algorithm is really interpretable and explainable - that's still quite far off,\" he said.\nAmazon's experiment began at a pivotal moment for the world's largest online retailer. Machine learning was gaining traction in the technology world, thanks to a surge in low-cost computing power.\nAnd Amazon's Human Resources department was about to embark on a hiring spree: Since June 2015, the company's global headcount has more than tripled to 575,700 workers, regulatory filings show.\nSo it set up a team in Amazon's Edinburgh engineering hub that grew to around a dozen people. Their goal was to develop AI that could rapidly crawl the web and spot candidates worth recruiting, the people familiar with the matter said.\nThe group created 500 computer models focused on specific job functions and locations. They taught each to recognise some 50,000 terms that showed up on past candidates' resumes.\nThe algorithms learned to assign little significance to skills that were common across IT applicants, such as the ability to write various computer codes, the people said.\nInstead, the technology favoured candidates who described themselves using verbs more commonly found on male engineers\u2019 resumes, such as \"executed\" and \"captured,\" one person said.\nGender bias was not the only issue. Problems with the data that underpinned the models' judgements meant that unqualified candidates were often recommended for all manner of jobs, the people said. With the technology returning results almost at random, Amazon shut down the project, they said.\nKevin Parker, chief executive of HireVue, a start-up near Salt Lake City, said automation is helping firms look beyond the same recruiting networks upon which they have long relied. His firm analyses candidates' speech and facial expressions in video interviews to reduce reliance on resumes.\n\"You weren\u2019t going back to the same old places; you weren\u2019t going back to just Ivy League schools,\" Parker said. His company's customers include Unilever PLC and Hilton.\nGoldman Sachs has created its own resume analysis tool that tries to match candidates with the division where they would be the \"best fit,\" the company said.\nMicrosoft\u2019s LinkedIn, the world's largest professional network, has gone further. It offers employers algorithmic rankings of candidates based on their fit for job postings on its site.\n\"I certainly would not trust any AI system today to make a hiring decision on its own,\" he said. \"The technology is just not ready yet.\"\nSome activists say they are concerned about transparency in AI. The American Civil Liberties Union is currently challenging a law that allows criminal prosecution of researchers and journalists who test hiring websites' algorithms for discrimination.\n\"We are increasingly focusing on algorithmic fairness as an issue,\" said Rachel Goodman, a staff attorney with the Racial Justice Program at the ACLU.\nAs for Amazon, the company managed to salvage some of what it learned from its failed AI experiment. It now uses a \"much-watered down version\" of the recruiting engine to help with some rudimentary chores, including culling duplicate candidate profiles from databases, one of the people familiar with the project said.\n(Reporting By Jeffrey Dastin in San Francisco; Editing by Jonathan Weber and Marla Dickerson)",

        "raw_content": "Knife attack set to boost Bolsonaro's Brazil presidential bid\nJohannes MYBURGH\nBrazilian right-wing presidential candidate Jair Bolsonaro gestures after being stabbed in the stomach during a campaign rally in southern Brazil\nRight-wing Brazilian election front-runner Jair Bolsonaro looks set to make a dramatic rise from the emergency room to the presidency, family and analysts predicted on Friday, a day after he was stabbed while campaigning.\nBrazil's presidential race took the latest in a series of twists on Thursday when a left-wing activist, claiming to be on \"a mission from God,\" knifed Bolsonaro as he campaigned in the southeastern state of Minas Gerais.\nThe former army captain immediately underwent surgery for multiple wounds to his mid-section and is convalescing for at least a week in a Sao Paulo hospital -- but his temporary incapacity is expected to boost rather than harm his chances.\n\"A message to these bandits: they've just elected the new president, and that will be right from the first round,\" said Bolsonaro's son and fellow politician Flavio.\nLast week Bolsonaro was catapulted to leading candidate in the October 7 first round, when jailed former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was barred from standing by the country's electoral court.\n\"All of a sudden he's been transformed into almost as big a victim as Lula,\" said Mauricio Santoro, a political scientist at Rio de Janeiro's UFRJ university.\n- 'Direct impact' -\nLula, 72, is serving a 12-year sentence after he was convicted of accepting a seaside apartment as a bribe.\n\"The attack against Bolsonaro, already boosted by Lula's disqualification, will have a direct impact on voter intention,\" said political analyst Jimena Blanco.\nShe says it would \"diminish\" Bolsonaro's \"high rejection level\" -- 44 percent of the people in a new poll said they would never vote for him -- and earn him more support.\nPreviously trailing a distant second with less than half Lula's projected vote share, Bolsonaro this week found himself 10 points clear of his nearest rivals, environmentalist Marina Silva and center-left candidate Ciro Gomes.\nHe already commands an impressive social media following of 8.5 million people while #ForcaBolsonaro -- Come on Bolsonaro -- was one of the top trending hashtags on Twitter on Friday.\nDespite being a long-serving member of Congress, Bolsonaro has successfully presented himself as an outsider, untouched by the corruption scandals engulfing so much of the political elite.\nPointedly, one of his campaign pledges has been to legalize the carrying of weapons in order to combat rising violent crime -- in a country where police are already often engaged in low-level wars against gangs. About 64,000 people die in homicides every year.\n- 'Divine mission' -\nImages shared on social media and Brazilian television on Thursday showed Bolsonaro being carried on the shoulders of a throng of supporters, before a man lunges at his stomach.\nA witness told police the attacker held a knife wrapped up in a shirt and attacked Bolsonaro as the group hoisting him walked by.\nThe attacker was arrested immediately and identified as Adelio Bispo de Oliveira, 40 -- said to have been a member of the left-leaning PSOL party.\nAfter his arrest, Bispo de Oliveira said he was \"carrying out a divine mission, a mission from God,\" said Luis Boundens, head of a union of federal police officers.\nAuthorities are investigating the suspect's mental health, he added.\nBolsonaro has been criticized for outbursts deemed racist, misogynist and homophobic.\nBispo de Oliveira acted \"for religious reasons, for political reasons, and also because of the prejudice Bolsonaro has always shown when he talks about race, religion and even women,\" said the suspect's lawyer, Pedro Augusto Lima Possa.\nOn his Facebook page, the alleged assailant recently posted messages criticizing Bolsonaro and supporting the socialist government of President Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela.\nPresident Michel Temer quickly condemned the attack and instructed his Minister of Security Raul Jungmann to reinforce security for candidates and conduct \"a rigorous investigation,\" a spokesman for the presidency told AFP.\n\"It is intolerable to see that in a democratic state it is not possible to have a normal campaign,\" said Temer.",

I must say, managing all these guys is not easy! I want to dedicate the victory to those important people who believed in us and helped us all this time. Above all, I thank the club\u2019s president. It is always difficult to have changes and a new coaching staff. I also thank for the support of Sergei Palkin, who has been always with us, both in difficult and happy moments. It is very important for any foreigner to feel at home in a new place. That is how I am feeling here. I want to thank all the club\u2019s employees, medical staff, masseurs and administrators who really helped us feel this way. And most importantly, they are competent in their work, and thanks largely to them, we have achieved this result. Sometimes these people are not so noticeable, but do not forget that they are as important as everyone who is on the stage. I thank my football players. They are makers of victories, which we are celebrating today. This year championship turned out to be something special, and we were just obliged to win it. I thank the guys for their level, competence, total dedication and compromise.\nI try to look to the future and be ambitious. Believe me, in spite of the fact that we celebrate this year achievements I already have the next season in my head. It is going to be even more difficult for us. First of all, because everyone will be eager to take away our titles from us. We must prepare for a new hard season. It is necessary to be more united than ever and work even harder - then we will be able to achieve the top results, which we always strive for. I have already told a lot ... I conclude by saying the words, which are crucial for the coming season. If the club\u2019s president attends not every, but, at least, some of our matches, we will become many times stronger. We will be happy to look at the stands and see you there. Thank you!",

During that day the President of the United States and Vice President of the United States were selected. Barack Obama from the Democratic Party defeated John McCain to win the presidency, and is the first African-American president. He was sworn in as President on January 20, 2009. In a United States presidential election, a person must get 270 electoral votes to win.\nDemocratic PrimariesEdit\nThe candidates running for the nomination of the Democratic Party were Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Joe Biden, Dennis Kucinich, Mike Gravel, Chris Dodd, and Bill Richardson.\nThe main contest during the Democratic primaries was between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, which was a very close race.

Bush (who eventually supported John McCain), was very unpopular due to the 2007-09 \"great recession\", and because of that, the Obama campaign compared McCain to Bush several times.\nThere were four television debates during the campaign: three of them were between the two presidential candidates, and one of them was between the two vice-presidential candidates.\nStates led\nNational ECV\n69,498,516 52.9% 28+DC+NE-02 365\nJohn McCain (Republican) 59,948,323 45.7% 22 173\nRalph Nader (Independent) 739,034 0.56% 0 0\nBob Barr (Libertarian) 523,715 0.40% 0 0\nChuck Baldwin (Constitution) 199,750 0.15% 0 0\nCynthia McKinney (Green) 161,797 0.12% 0 0\nOther 242,685 0.18% 0 0\nTotal 131,313,820 100.00% 50 + DC 538\nObama Popular Vote\nObama %\nMcCain Popular Vote\nMcCain %\nAlabama 813,479 38.74% 1,266,546 60.32% 9\nAlaska 123,594 37.89% 193,841 59.42% 3\nArizona 1,034,707 45.12% 1,230,111 53.64% 10\nArkansas 422,310 38.86% 638,017 58.72% 6\nCalifornia 8,274,473 41.01% 5,011,781 36.95% 55\nColorado 1,288,633 53.66% 1,073,629 44.71% 9\nConnecticut 997,772 60.59% 629,428 38.22% 7\nDelaware 255,429 61.94% 152,374 36.95% 3\nDistrict of Columbia 245,800 92.46% 17,367 6.53% 3\nFlorida 4,282,074 51.03% 4,045,624 48.22% 27\nGeorgia 1,844,123 46.99% 2,048,759 52.20% 15\nHawaii 325,871 71.85% 120,566 26.58% 4\nIdaho 236,440 36.09% 403,012 61.52% 4\nIllinois 3,419,308 61.92% 2,031,179 36.78% 21\nIndiana 1,374,039 49.95% 1,345,648 48.91% 11\nIowa 828,940 53.93% 682,379 44.39% 7\nKansas 514,765 41.95% 699,655 56.61% 6\nKentucky 751,985 41.17% 1,048,462 57.40% 8\nLouisiana 782,989 39.93% 1,148,275 58.56% 9\nMaine 421,923 57.71% 295,273 40.38% 4\nMaryland 1,629,467 61.92% 959,862 36.47% 10\nMassachusetts 1,904,097 61.80% 1,108,854 35.99% 12\nMichigan 2,872,579 57.43% 2,048,639 40.96% 17\nMinnesota 1,573,354 54.06% 1,275,409 43.82% 10\nMississippi 554,662 43.00% 724,597 56.18% 6\nMissouri 1,441,911 49.29% 1,445,814 49.43% 11\nMontana 231,667 47.25% 242,763 49.51% 3\nNebraska 333,319 41.60% 452,479 56.53% 5\nNevada 533,736 55.15% 412,827 42.65% 5\nNew Hampshire 384,826 54.13% 316,534 44.52% 4\nNew Jersey 2,215,422 57.27% 1,613,207 41.70% 15\nNew Mexico 472,422 56.91% 346,832 41.78% 5\nNew York 4,804,945 62.88% 2,752,771 36.03% 31\nNorth Carolina 2,142,651 49.70% 2,128,474 49.38% 15\nNorth Dakota 141,278 44.62% 168,601 53.25% 3\nOhio 2,940,044 51.50% 2,677,820 46.91% 20\nOklahoma 502,496 34.35% 960,165 65.65% 7\nOregon 1,037,291 56.75% 738,475 40.40% 7\nPennsylvania 3,276,363 54.49% 2,655,885 44.17% 21\nRhode Island 296,571 62.86% 165,391 35.06% 4\nSouth Carolina 862,449 44.90% 1,034,896 53.87% 8\nSouth Dakota 170,924 44.75% 203,054 53.16% 3\nTennessee 1,087,437 41.83% 1,479,178 56.90% 11\nTexas 3,528,633 43.68% 4,479,328 55.45% 34\nUtah 327,670 34.41% 596,030 62.58% 5\nVermont 219,262 67.46% 98,974 30.45% 3\nVirginia 1,959,532 52.63% 1,725,005 46.33% 13\nWashington 1,750,848 57.65% 1,229,216 40.48% 11\nWest Virginia 303,857 42.59% 397,466 55.71% 5\nWisconsin 1,677,211 56.22% 1,262,393 42.31% 10\nWyoming 82,868 32.54% 164,958 64.78% 3\nJoe the Plumber, political activist and stereotype\n\u2191 \"Official 2008 Presidential General Election Results\" (PDF). fec.gov.

He said the government would study the system of political funding in other countries to find the best practices in the implementation of the law. \u201cIn some countries, the government provides the funds to political parties. That is done, I think, in Germany. We will study whether that is something that we can do. \u201cBut, on the other hand, we see the United States which has a system of lobbyists and they are paid to influence the government to do certain things for the people who paid the money. \u201cThat, to us, is corruption. We will not allow that in Malaysia,\u201d he said after chairing a meeting of the Special Cabinet Meeting on Anti-Corruption in Putrajaya. Tun Dr Mahathir said political funding was necessary for political parties, especially during elections when a lot of money was required. However, he said, it was quite difficult to determine if a political donation was a bribe or not.\nMalaysian business confidence has hit a 3-year high for Q3 2018. According to Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) Malaysia\u2019s Business Optimism Index (BOI) study, overall BOI increased from +12.58 percentage points in Q1 2018 to +13.17 percentage points in Q2 2018. On a year-on-year basis, BOI jumped significantly from +3.40 percentage points in Q3 2017 to +13.17 percentage points in Q3 2018. The six business indicators under the quarterly BOI study include volume of sales, net profits, selling price, inventory level, employees and new orders. For Q3 2018, the manufacturing sector has emerged as the most upbeat sector while the construction and transportation sectors are least optimistic.\nThe Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB), together with Professional Culinaire Association (PCA) will be serving up the best Malaysia has to offer to delegates attending the Worldchefs Congress & Expo (WACS) 2018. The biennial event is expected to welcome around 1,000 delegates with 70 percent representing arrivals from 105 countries in Kuala Lumpur from 11th to 14th July 2018. \u201cEconomically, the high traffic in arrivals is slated to bring an estimated RM 14.7 million in economic impact to the country,\u201d said Datuk Zulkefli Hj. Sharif, Chief Executive and will include topics that addresses new chefs in the world of restauranteurs, creativity and a sustainable future. To make the event more \u2018appetizing\u2019, a cooking challenge will be thrown to chefs from various countries. Hosting WACS 2018 is the ideal platform for Malaysia to further showcase its unique cuisine influences and expertise to the world. \u201cWe are looking beyond the benefits of having just this one business event for Malaysia. I am confident that after WACS 2018, Malaysia will not only be a destination that is known for our own culinary experience, but will also be catapulted as a hub,\u201d Datuk Zulkefli pointed out. The Congress is organised internationally by The World Association of Chefs\u2019 Societies or Worldchefs. The association is a dynamic global network of more than 100 chefs\u2019 association representing culinary experts at all levels and across specialities.\nArcadis, the leading global Design & Consultancy for natural and built assets, is launching its latest drone deployment services in construction. Arcadis is one of the first companies in Singapore and Southeast Asia to invest in industrial-grade drones in the construction sector, leading the way in the commercial use of drones. Drones can help to address a wide range of challenges that clients typically face on large-scale construction projects. Key benefits delivered on real-life projects include improved accuracy and quality of design work, significant cost savings and reduced overall time for projects. It can also enhance health and safety as drones are able to reduce the need to access hazardous areas, such as working at height or over water. They can also be fully automated through artificial intelligence and have the capability to identify potential construction risks, unsafe working environments and practices through surveillance.\nAn operation to evacuate 12 Thai boys and their football coach from the flooded Tham Luang cave complex in northern Thailand entered its second leg today after a pause overnight to replenish oxygen tanks. Eight more boys and their 25-year-old coach remain in the cave complex, where they have been trapped since Jun 23.\nNext articleBlackBerry Launches KEY2 Smartphone in Malaysia",

At South, we encourage and prepare students to participate fully, to take risks, to be self-advocates, and to create lasting memories and relationships with peers and staff. I am proud to be the principal of such an exciting and dynamic school.\nOur goal at South is to provide an enriching, engaging, and challenging curriculum that will prepare students for success. We believe that students, parents, and teachers all play a vital role in helping students reach their greatest potential. Students are encouraged to take advantage of the many resources and opportunities available to them including the library, computer labs, school spirit days, Club Day, student council, Peer Mediation, WSMS News, team building activities, after-school academic and athletic offerings, and teacher websites. Parents can check academic progress regularly via our parent portal and can access information about school events on our website.\nAt South, we recognize that social/emotional development is as essential to student success as academics. This year we continue our advisory program, called Mustang Mentors. During Mustang Mentors, small groups of students meet monthly with a staff member to explore middle school topics like self-advocacy, respect, friendship, and kindness. Our goal is to provide a time for students to build connections with teachers and peers and to build a stronger sense of community and ownership at South Middle School.\nSouth Middle is once again partnering with Winthrop University -Richard W. Riley College of Education. Teacher candidates share in the classroom experiences at South Middle. This collaboration between Winthrop and South is a Win-Win-Win. The biggest winners are the students who get the benefit of tried and true methods of our veteran teachers and the innovations of the teacher candidates.\nThe foundation for our students\u2019 success is based on the partnership among students, staff, and parents. Active parent participation is essential to our success. Please contact any member of your child's team or our dedicated PTO Executive Board for information on how you can support our work and we can support you. Teachers provide a nurturing environment in which young adolescents can learn, take risks, and thrive. Their work, in partnership with our parent community, has and will continue to support us to fulfill our school mission: Preparing Students to Succeed.\nI look forward to working with you and your children during the 2017-2018 school year and please know that you are always welcome at South Middle School.\nMrs. Joyce Crimminger, Principal",

That is, of course, if WWE head honcho Vince McMahon will welcome him back.\nMcMahon severed ties wth the Hulk back in 2015 after comments from years before surfaced including some racially derogatory terms.\nWhile McMahon has not touched on the topic, Hogan recently noted that he\u2019d love to return to the WWE.\n\u201cFor me, I\u2019d love to change that last story that was told with the Hulk Hogan career,\u201d he told TMZ Sports. \u201cI\u2019d love to get back in the fold, get back on the inside and correct a lot of stuff.\u201d\nThis would represent the fifth comeback of a career that spanned five decades. And it sounds like something could be in the works.\n\u201cIt has to be the perfect timing for both sides. We\u2019re all on good terms,\u201d Hogan continued. \u201cWe\u2019re all working towards the same goal. So hopefully, I\u2019ll be able to be back with my wrestling family some day soon.\u201d\nAt a time when the WWE was able to lure former world champ Ronda Rousey from the UFC, it seems the sport is on the uptick.\nIt also seems that the legendary Ric Flair is all supportive of the idea of Hulk returning. Here\u2019s a video of his comments on Hogan\u2019s potential return.\nWe\u2019ll see soon enough if any of this gains traction. But who wouldn\u2019t want to see Hulk and Rousey team up in the newly formed Mixed Match Challenge?",

        "raw_content": "The Cleveland Cavaliers coaxed fans into a three-year commitment to have floor seats for home games at Quicken Loans Arena, and it looks like a brilliant business decision now.\nESPN\u2019s Darren Rovell reported on the situation, as the Cavs required fans to go all-in this February:\nThe Cavaliers made everyone with floor seats sign deals this February that would lock them in for the next three seasons.\n\u2014 Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) July 2, 2018\nAlthough prices are likely to plummet for those seats due to the departure of LeBron James to the Los Angeles Lakers, the quality of basketball won\u2019t quite be the same. And those fans were probably hoping to continue bearing witness to The King.\nRovell also showed how James\u2019 impending arrival to the City of Angels impacted Lakers ticket prices:\nIn 20 minutes, the lowest Lakers season tickets being sold on StubHub went from $3,499 apiece to $5,800 apiece. pic.twitter.com/DtrUngjNnw\nAccording to Rovell, the Cavs\u2019 franchise value dropped 25 percent in a single year when James left the team the first time to join the Miami Heat and ultimately win two championships.\nBut James came back, helped Cleveland win a championship of its own and advanced the Cavs to the NBA Finals in each of the past four seasons. There\u2019s little reason for fans of the team to be salty about his departure this time around.\nThe Lakers are a strong, coveted brand even when they\u2019re not in contention for a title. That will change with the arrival of James, whose presence alone ought to enhance LA\u2019s chances of a deep playoff run, though likely not enough for a championship push in 2018-19.\nBut there is some hope for Cleveland\u2019s ticket holders. All-Star forward Kevin Love is still on the squad, along with a bevy of veterans who have lots of playoff experience, courtesy of James\u2019 brilliance.\nThe Cavs will hope to build around Love, along with rookie lottery pick Collin Sexton, who\u2019s wearing Kyrie Irving\u2019s old No. 2 jersey, further signaling the dawn of a new era in Cleveland.",

        "raw_content": "You may have noticed that my presence on this blog has declined in the last month or so; this has been for a couple of reasons, some of which I\u2019ve already discussed here, but one of the good ones that I haven\u2019t crowed about much is that I\u2019m actually starting to make progress on the book at faster-than-a-snail\u2019s-pace (probably to do with having more focused writing time now that my teaching responsibilities are over for a while). In the last few weeks, my writing has been getting between 2 and 4 hours almost every day. Of course, not all of that time is spent putting words on paper; as I\u2019m sure the other writers out there know, no matter how much research you think you\u2019ve done ahead of time, you\u2019ll inevitably find something that needs to be looked up in-the-moment.\nI don\u2019t always drop everything to go research; after a long process of trial and error, I\u2019ve learned better than to dive blindly into the Internet and expect to come up for air before I\u2019ve lost the thread of what I was doing. But sometimes, the question is one that\u2019s actually intrinsic to the scene I\u2019m writing. How might this animal behave under these circumstances? What could you do for a person with these injuries if you didn\u2019t have professional help available? What weapons would these people most likely be carrying?\nFor an immediate question like that, I find it works much better for me to go to a physical book to find an answer. The distraction potential is far less (there\u2019s no link to Facebook on my bookshelf, for instance, unless my phone happens to be sitting there); I tend to be more familiar with the layout of the source I\u2019m tapping, letting me quickly find the section I\u2019m looking for; and since I\u2019ve evaluated it before adding it to my library I can be more sure of its accuracy.\nOf course, I can never be completely sure what I might need to look up on any given day, but here are a few categories of topic that I\u2019ve found myself accumulating books on, that might be worthy additions to other aspiring fantasists\u2019 reference libraries (you\u2019ll find a partial list of titles at the end of the post):\nBooks with photos and drawings of clothing and weapons. This one was particularly important to me after I resolved that the world of my novels would not have a straightforward \u201cfaux-European\u201d flavor. I wanted the cultures to feel more original, and so I wanted to make sure I exposed myself to the way things were done in other places besides medieval Europe. So far, I\u2019ve collected three different books on costuming and body adornment, and two different books on weapons; when I bring a new character onto the page, I can sit down and consider the culture they\u2019re coming out of (are they a pastoralist? a city-dweller? someone from a hot climate? a wet climate?), and quickly look at illustrations from a number of real-world cultures with similar elements.\nSkill-based books. I have a few small clusters of \u201cskill books\u201d (some on falconry; some on sailing; one written for linguists on how to document an unknown language); more recently, I\u2019ve been gathering books on survival in the wilderness. Because I\u2019ve often got characters roaming through uncharted territory in my books, and it\u2019s useful to have a quick guide to things like how to gut a carcass, sharpen knives, start a fire and transport an injured person \u2014 as well as stuff like basic nutrition for people living in a non-industrialized setting.\nNatural history books. If animals play a major part in your story, it\u2019s probably useful for you to have a few books about those animals (I suspect GRRM might have a wolf text or two in his writing room). Raptors have a pretty substantial role in the story I\u2019m telling, so I have books that discuss their anatomy, behavior, and training, as well as a few big coffee table books just for the pictures.\nCultural overview books. These, of course, take all sorts of forms. I\u2019ve got an ever-growing collection of compilations of mythology from around the world; I have a book whose authors went around the world taking photos of families with all their worldly possessions piled up in front of their house, and a whole series of coffee table books offering sweeping historical overviews of different parts of the world, plus the obligatory medieval Europe series and about three years of National Geographic back-issues that I can flip through when I\u2019m feeling stuck for imagery. None of it stands on its own as a world-building tool; all of it informs my thinking.\nAnd that\u2019s just the stuff I\u2019ve accumulated so far.\nI know that my library will grow and change as my writing career does, but I don\u2019t think I will ever move to an all-digital research approach. The experience of pulling a familiar book from the shelf and cracking it open to the old familiar pictures is just too powerful for me to let it go.\nReference Books I\u2019ve Found Useful:\nFor weapons, armor, and general attire (all basically coffee table books):\nThe Illustrated Encyclopedia of Knives, Daggers & Bayonets (Dr. Tobias Capwell)\nThe Illustrated Encyclopedia of Swords and Sabres (Harvey J.S. Withers)\nThe Illustrated History of Weaponry: From Flint Axes to Automatic Weapons (Chuck Wills)\nWarrior: A Visual History of the Fighting Man (R.G. Grant \u2014 lots of pictures of weapons and armor from the earliest records to the present day)\nCostume Worldwide: A Historical Sourcebook (Melissa Leventon, ed \u2014 unlike the others, this one draws on paintings as its source material, so may not be quite as accurate, but it\u2019s a good place to start and the broadest book I\u2019ve been able to find so far)\nFor wilderness/survival skills:\nSAS Survival Guide (John \u201cLofty\u201d Wiseman \u2014 written by a veteran of the British special forces. Includes everything from how to test the edibility of plants and make your own bow to surviving a shipwreck)\nWhere There Is No Doctor: A Village Health Care Handbook (David Werner, Carol Thuman & Jane Maxwell \u2014 mainly focuses on disease prevention and treatment in low-technology settings, but there\u2019s some useful first aid and preventative medicine here too)\nFor raptor natural history info and photos, and falconry basics\nUnderstanding the Bird of Prey (Nick Fox \u2014 the bible of falconry management, as far as I can tell; out of print and quite expensive to get a copy of, but I\u2019ve found it worth the hefty pricetag. Includes anatomy and physiology, behavior, training, breeding and most anything else you can think of).\nFalcons of North America (Kate Davis \u2014 a natural history text focused on wild birds, with great pictures)\nA Falconry Manual (Frank L. Beebe \u2014 decent photos and brief overviews of the species used for falconry in North America, as well as the basics of training, housing, etc.)\nFor cultural stuff:\nLife in a Medieval Castle (Joseph & Frances Gies)\nLife in a Medieval City (Joseph & Frances Gies)\nLife in a Medieval Village (Frances & Joseph Gies \u2014 if you\u2019re looking to draw on the medieval-Europe model, these three books cover it pretty comprehensively, and also get a thumbs-up from a real-life medieval historian in my social circle as adequately accurate in their summaries)\nFavorite Folktales from Around the World (Jane Yolen, ed \u2014 this book joined my library when I had to write my story\u2019s first folk tale earlier this year; good representation from around the world and a good overview of the most common types of stories.\nMaterial World: A Global Family Portrait (Peter Menzel & Charles C.

        "raw_content": "It seems appropriate at this time of year to be slightly more serious for a moment. Earlier today, much of the country (with the notable exception of Lord Sugar) observed two minutes of silence in remembrance of those who have fought and died over the years for the freedom we enjoy today.\nEach of my grandfathers was involved in a World War.\nErnest in his DLI uniform\nMy dad\u2019s dad went to the trenches of Northern France in 1917 as a stretcher-bearer in the Durham Light Infantry and, though he was not injured himself, refused to talk about his experiences for the rest of his life. That lifelong silence, echoed in the brief two minutes we observed today, tells me all I need to know about the horrors that he saw and the memories he brought away with him, and yet by most objective measures, he was lucky. He went on to get married, father a child, and have a long and healthy life. Many of his comrades never had that opportunity.\nStan in his AFS uniform\nMy mum\u2019s dad, by a stroke of good fortune, was born in 1906, too late to be conscripted for the first world war, and too early for the second, but he still played his part. In 1938, he was enrolled into the Auxiliary Fire Service and spent the war waiting for the bombs to drop on Leeds. When he married my grandma in 1940, he was not allowed to leave the Leeds city boundary for his honeymoon, and they spent it here. Four years later, my mum was born, just before the D-Day landings. Stan wrote to his wife shortly afterwards: \u2018It\u2019s grand to know that everything has got over before the invasions started, because although I hadn\u2019t said anything it was worrying me a lot when I thought what might happen to all the hospitals when the wounded began to come in\u2026\u2019 We take it for granted now that fathers will be on hand when their babies are born. My grandparents seem to have been communicating by letter about the birth of their first child. But again, they were the lucky ones, although the family was not entirely untouched. In Belfast, my grandma\u2019s aunt, uncle and cousin were killed in their beds in April 1941, in one of the biggest air raids of the war.\nSo yes, let\u2019s remember the sacrifices made by others so that we can enjoy so much freedom today, but let\u2019s not fall into the trap of thinking that the remembrance is all about the history we learned at school. As long as young men and women are still coming home in boxes or in agony, and families are still separated by distance or the scars of conflict, we must never forget.\nTags: ancestry, genealogy, history, Remembrance Day, war\n2 Responses to \u201cLest We Forget\u201d\nLovely post. My mum\u2019s great uncle Walter died at Passchendaele at the age of 24. They were all so bloody young. And like you say, they still are.\nandytoots said this on\tNovember 11, 2010 at 6:16 pm | Reply\n[\u2026] This post was mentioned on Twitter by Alison Birch and Alison Birch, phillip thompson. phillip thompson said: RT @alisonkbirch: Lest We Forget: http://wp.me/pNHIY-1j #remembrance [\u2026]\nTweets that mention Lest We Forget \u00ab Something Blonde -- Topsy.com said this on\tNovember 14, 2010 at 10:58 am | Reply",

        "raw_content": "Halberg Criminal Defense Loses Weight with Chanhassen\u2019s Discover Strength\nCriminal defense staff and spouses commit to 90-day weight loss challenge.\nMarsh Halberg and Debbie Lang with the Bod Pod, a device that measures body composition, at Discover Strength in Chanhassen.\nMarsh Halberg is adroit at strategizing through an argument or proposal even before a word is spoken. Verbal chess matches are his game, and he was ready when Luke Carlson arrived last year at Halberg Criminal Defense to meet with Halberg, other lawyers and staff. Much to Halberg\u2019s surprise, Carlson beat him at his game, which Halberg and the rest of the staff are used to winning. Carlson convinced them to lose\u2014big.\nFirm partner Debbie Lang started it all when coworkers noticed her weight loss. \u201cBased upon the change that everyone had seen in me, they wanted to implement change in their own lives,\u201d Lang says. She lost 45 pounds since deciding to focus on diet and exercise, starting in December 2013. With the help of Luke Carlson of Discover Strength in Chanhassen, Lang lost 33 pounds of fat and virtually no muscle. The average person loses 1 pound of muscle with every 3 pounds of fat lost, so Lang\u2019s results are remarkable.\nCarlson was invited to the law offices in Bloomington to discuss a weight loss strategy and provide motivation. Halberg learned a thing or two. \u201cIt\u2019s just not about weight loss,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s about body composition.\u201d The Chaska resident adds, \u201c[Luke] made me rethink exercise patterns that I\u2019ve had. It seems daunting, but once you\u2019re armed with basic information, it\u2019s easy to do.\u201d\nInformation is key, according to Carlson. \u201cWe\u2019re just bombarded with so much weight loss and fitness information that it\u2019s hard to find credible information,\u201d he says. Using an evidence-based approach with clients, especially this group, seemed to resonate. Sixteen participants, including office members and some spouses, were so inspired by Lang and Carlson that they agreed to a 90-day, weight-loss challenge.\nThe beginning of the program included the use of a Bod Pod from Discover Strength. It provides data regarding body composition, including pounds of fat versus pounds of fat-free mass (organs, bones and muscle). The $60,000-machine resembles a large egg. Participants enter, the door closes, and for 30 seconds the pod uses air displacement to measure how much volume the participant displaces. The group from Halberg was measured in August 2014 and again in November 2014. \u201cThe firm lost a total of 124.6 pounds,\u201d he says. \u201cOf that amount, 107.8 pounds was pure fat loss. The average weight loss was 7.79 pounds per person, and the average fat loss of 6.7 pounds per person.\u201d\nThe winner of the male division lost 34 pounds in three months. More importantly, he was able to reduce his medications because of his weight loss. \u201cWe are proof that when you surround yourself with people making healthy decisions, you\u2019ll make healthy decisions,\u201d Halberg says.\nThat was a year ago, and even though the staff sent some weight packing, a bit of it has made a return visit. The group wanted another team challenge for motivation to lose even more weight, so it resumed on August 10. \u201cI\u2019m really into a team mentality to what we do,\u201d Halberg says, referring to the challenge and his business philosophy, calling the weight loss program \u201cteam building at a very basic level.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Candidates\nNew Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore won Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2017. Just like the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award, this award can also only be won once. Who are the likely candidates to win Defensive Rookie of the Year Award in 2018?\nThe first player that comes to mind is Denver Broncos outside linebacker/defensive end Bradley Chubb. He was the fifth overall pick in the draft and Chubb is most likely the best defensive player in this draft. It was shocking the Cleveland Browns passed up on him at number four. Bradley Chubb will be a force with Von Miller and it will be a nightmare for opposing defenses. Chubb recorded 72 tackles last season at North Carolina State and 23 of them were tackles for loss. He also had 10 sacks, two pass deflections, and one forced fumble.\nThe second player that comes to mind is Chicago Bears inside linebacker Roquan Smith. He is a hard hitter and Smith won the Butkus Award last season at the University of Georgia. He is a very good tackler and Smith is also good in coverage. He could turn into a leader on the Bears defense right away. Roquan Smith recorded 137 tackles last season and 14 of them were tackles for loss. He also had 6.5 sacks, two pass deflections, two fumble recoveries, and one forced fumble. Smith was the seventh overall pick in the draft.\nThe third player that comes to mind is Cleveland Browns is cornerback Denzel Ward. He was drafted fourth overall by the Browns and it came at a surprise. They passed on Bradley Chubb, but the Browns needed a true number one corner and Cleveland might have found one. Ward is physical and he enjoys playing that way. By doing that, it will make wide receivers uncomfortable. Marshon Lattimore went to Ohio State and that is where Denzel Ward also played college football at. Ward had 37 tackles last season and two of them were tackles for loss. He also picked off two passes and had 15 pass deflections.\nThe fourth player that comes to mind is Buffalo Bills inside linebacker Tremaine Edwards. He will thrive in an environment that preaches defense first. Edwards is another hard hitter and he can cover as well. Tremaine Edwards will can also pressure the quarterback. He had 102 tackles last season at Virginia Teach and Edwards also recorded 5.5 sacks. He had two pass deflections and also had three forced fumbles. Tremaine Edwards was the 16th pick in the NFL Draft.\nThe fifth player that comes to mind is Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James. The Chargers were missing a key safety on the back end to help them in coverage and in the run game. James is the best safety in this draft and he could turn into a future pro bowler. Los Angeles's identity will be how good their defense can be in 2018. Derwin James was the 17th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft and he played college football at Florida State last season. James had 84 tackles and 5.5 of them were tackles for loss. He also had one sack, two interceptions, 11 pass deflections, and one defensive touchdown.\nThe sixth player that comes to mind is Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch. He is capable of playing anywhere on the football field. Vander Esch will be one of the starting linebackers to start the year and he will probably be one of the outside linebackers. If Sean Lee ever gets hurt, Leighton Vander Esch has the capability to be the inside linebacker and be the quarterback of the defense. He was the 19th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Vander Esch recorded 141 tackles last season with Boise State and 8.5 of them were tackles for loss. He also had four sacks, two interceptions, five pass deflections, and four forced fumbles.\nPerma link : https://sports.smallteaser.com/article/nfl-defensive-rookie-of-the-year-candida\nShort url : https://goo.gl/ZPqtyg",

        "raw_content": "George Washington vs. Davidson - 2/3/18 College Basketball Pick, Odds, and Prediction\nDavidson Wildcats (11-9) at George Washington Colonials (9-13)\nThe Line: George Washington Colonials +5.5 -- Over/Under: 133\nNBC Sports - Washington; NBC Sports - Philadelphia Plus; SNY\nThe Davidson Wildcats will travel to the Charles E. Smith Center to take on the George Washington Colonials this Saturday afternoon in College Basketball action.\nThe Davidson Wildcats snapped their 2-game losing streak and improved to 11-9 (6-3 A-10) on the season after defeating the La Salle Explorers, 84-65, this past Wednesday. Davidson was outstanding in the 1st half against the Explorers and had no trouble picking up the victory after taking a 41-24 halftime lead. Davidson shot 50.0% from the field, 46.9% (15-32) from beyond the arc and outrebounded the Explorers by a 35-26 margin in the victory. Leading the way for the Wildcats was Kellan Grady who had 26 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals. On the season, Davidson is averaging 75.6 ppg on 47.3% shooting from the field. The Wildcats are averaging 10.9 three-pointers per game on 37.9% shooting from beyond the arc. Offensively, Davidson has been led by Peyton Aldridge (20.0 ppg, 6.8 rpg, 2.9 apg), Kellan Grady (15.9 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 1.9 apg), Jon Axel Gudmundsson (15.4 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 5.0 apg, 1.5 spg), and KiShawn Pritchett (6.2 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 3.5 apg). Defensively, Davidson is holding their opponents to an average of 67.6 ppg on 44.4% shooting from the field. The Wildcats have a rebound margin of 0.8 and a turnover margin of 1.6.\nThe George Washington Colonials lost their 3rd straight game and dropped to 9-13 (2-7 A-10) on the season after being defeated by the Duquesne Dukes, 75-73, this past Wednesday. George Washington had no answers for the Dukes offense in this one and couldn\u2019t fight all the way back after trailing by a 73-66 margin with 0:31 seconds left in regulation. George Washington allowed Duquesne to shoot 50.0% from the field and 64.3% (9-14) from beyond the arc in the loss. Leading the way for the Colonials was Patrick Steeves who had 23 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, and a block. On the season, George Washington is averaging 64.2 ppg on 42.8% shooting from the field. The Colonials are averaging 5.6 three-pointers per game on 30.6% shooting from beyond the arc. Offensively, George Washington has been led by Yuta Watanabe (14.6 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 1.4 apg, 1.7 bpg), Jair Bolden (12.0 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 3.0 apg), Patrick Steeves (10.6 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 2.4 apg), and Terry Nolan Jr. (9.6 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 2.3 apg). Defensively, George Washington is allowing their opponents to average 69.9 ppg on 46.8% shooting from the field. The Colonials have a rebound margin of -0.7 and a turnover margin of -1.4.\nThe Wildcats are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games following a ATS win however, are 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. The Colonials are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS loss and 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games overall.\nDavison has won 6 of their last 8 games and have been great on the both ends of the court as the Wildcats rank 129th in scoring offense, 13th in three-pointers made per game, and 68th in defensive FG%. George Washington has lost 7 of their last 8 games and have struggled on the offensive end this season as the Colonials rank 339th in scoring offense, 278th in defensive FG%, and 333rd in 3P-FG%. George Washington scored just 45 points in a 27-point loss at Davison earlier this season and although I think the Colonials will be more competitive in this one, I still think that Davison wins this one by double-digits and covers this spread.",

        "title": "Top 8 of '08: Number 3 | The Science of Sport",
        "raw_content": "Top 8 of \u201908: Number 3 // The Speedo LZR Racer creates a splash\nCategory: 2008 news, swimming\nThe Number 3 Sports Science story of 2008 comes from the swimming pools of the world. It is a story we\u2019ve featured heavily this year, perhaps more than any other (so it may even have been deserving of the Number 1 slot), because of the scientific, philosophical and ethical questions it has thrown up.\nIt was over a year ago that the suit was released, but it was in March that we first commented on the LZR Racer. At that stage, NINE world records had been set, and the LZR Racer was the common denominator. That was nothing compared to what would happen in the coming months\u2026\nThe French technical director called for a review of the suits, but back then, he was something of a lone voice \u2013 everyone else saw no problem with them. This was perhaps the result of the fact that the French had a sponsorship by Speedo\u2019s rivals, Arena, whereas the USA and Australia were both benefitting from the Speedo technology.\nThe swimsuit wars begin\nThat was a precursor of what was to come \u2013 in a matter of months, the number of world records had risen from nine to about thirty. That was before the Olympic Games, where a further 25 world records would be broken (and this does NOT include the poor swimmers who swam seconds faster than the old world record and still finished seconds behind, often outside the medals!). All in all, only TWO events survived the Olympic Games with their Olympic Records in tact \u2013 it was an unprecedented \u201ccleansing\u201d of the record books, and while there are certainly other factors in play, the swimsuit has been the one dominating the news.\nWe began to look at some of the technical matters surrounding the suit, the design, the principles, the debate over whether the suit improved buoyancy. That post, along with some interesting comments from a swimming hydrodynamics expert colleague of mine, can be found here.\nIt was at around this stage that the battle moved away from the pool and into the factories where suits were being manufactured. Speedo\u2019s LZR, developed partly by NASA, partly by 1000 swimming flume, hydrodynamic sessions in New Zealand, was clearly in the ascendancy in the marketing battle. With the Olympic Games looming, no respectable swimmer wanted to be seen in anything else, which of course posed a problem for those swimmers sponsored by Arena, Adidas, and Nike.\nSwimmers decided to abandon sponsorships and wear the Speedo \u2013 some were sued. Entire teams revolted, insisting that they\u2019d swim in Speedo (and not Adidas, as was the case for Germany). As a result, Adidas last week decided not to renew its sponsorship \u2013 the implications of this swimsuit war go well beyond the pool and the record books\u2026\nArena had developed its own full body suit, but then sought to have the LZR banned \u2013 a letter, written by the Arena President, was sent to the International Swimming Federation, in which he said that \u201cFINA faced an \u201cirrecoverable loss of credibility for swimming sports,\u201d if they did not act to stamp out the use of the suits. You can read that letter, and some more of the amazing quotes, in our post done at the time.\nAt the time, Arena was losing the battle for world records 18-1, which makes it hardly surprising that their CEO was pushing for a ban!\nThe calls for a ban intensify \u2013 is there evidence?\nBy the end of the year, however, even his voice was being drowned out by coaches, swimmers, federations, just about anyone involved with swimming was calling for a similar ban on the suit! Admittedly, things were getting out of hand \u2013 swimmers were wearing not one, not two, but three suits, so that the material was thickened and their buoyancy improved. This is blatantly making use of equipment to improve performance, and many would label this very obvious cheating (my question \u2013 how is it different to wearing one suit when you know that the same relative effect exists compared to wearing your old suit, or a non-speedo one? Seems to me that both lie on the same continuum, which means you have a moral dilemma)\nMost recently, following the European Short Course champs in Croatia (where the total number of records for the year hit 105 \u2013 incredible!), a number of federations have petitioned FINA to ban the suit, or at least to review its use. All in all, 15 out of the 17 European nations have petitioned for a number of regulations to be discussed and implicated.\nOne thing that is interesting is the debate around the scientific merits of the suit. In 2009, we\u2019ll look much more at those studies (this review is not the time or place! And besides, it\u2019s holiday season!) and discuss whether the suit is really having that large an effect. To my mind, there\u2019s little doubt \u2013 the number of world records set this year is now triple the normal number, and while the Olympics provides the catalyst for this \u201crush\u201d, it cannot explain the growth by itself.\nThe nature of competition and access\nSome other silly comments have been made \u2013 early on, a number of swimmers were of the opinion that the suit \u201cdoesn\u2019t swim by itself\u201d. Yes, rather profound\u2026their argument, though, is that the suit doesn\u2019t change the nature of competition, provided all swimmers have access to the suit. You should not be surprised to learn that the swimmers saying this were wearing Speedo\u2019s LZR at the time!\nThe point is, and this is probably the crux, that competition is changed when the suit is not available to all. So either everyone must wear the same, or no one must wear it. Unfortunately, the \u201croll-out\u201d of the suit made it impossible for all swimmers to get it (and there were sponsor conflicts, as mentioned above), and so suddenly, it did become a battle of technology.\nOf course, as you read this, you may be thinking \u201cwhy should Speedo be punished for innovation that produced a superior costume?\u201d And you\u2019d be right \u2013 it\u2019s not fair to \u201cstandardize\u201d costumes and prevent natural market forces and competition from having their effect. So how can you force them to make the suit available, or ensure that other manufacturers, who, let\u2019s face it, missed a trick, are brought up to speed? As you can see, the issue is highly complex!\nBut can they ban it now? What are the implications?\nOne voice that has come out and opposed the idea of banning the suits is that of Libby Trickett, of Australia. She says \u201cI read that in 1972, I think, there were 53 world records broken, and there has been 54 [long course] this year,\u201d Trickett said. \u201cWhat provided that difference that year?\u201d She goes on to say that banning the suits would set the sport \u201cback a decade\u201d.\nRegular readers of The Science of Sport would know the answer to Trickett\u2019s question, because we covered that back in August \u2013 the 1972 development was the invention of swimming goggles, which allowed swimmers to see the wall and improve by perhaps half a second on the turns! (Trickett is clearly not a reader!)\nHowever, where I do agree is that if the suit is now banned, they\u2019d have to accept that the number of world records broken will fall dramatically for a number of years. The sport would begin to resemble track and field athletics for women, where world records are simply not broken, because so many of the existing records were set in the drug-heyday of the sport, the 1980\u2019s. We did an analysis of this recently, and showed how doping-aided performance of the 1980\u2019s had made women\u2019s world records irrelevant. Speedo\u2019s LZR threatens to do the same.\nSwimming\u2019s decision, then, is do they wish to eliminate the chances of seeing world records for a while by closing the door long after the horse has bolted, or do they ban the suit on legal grounds?\nI can\u2019t see how a ban would be tenable \u2013 my suggestion would be to draw a line very clearly at the current point \u2013 the current suit is acceptable, but no further enhancements will be allowed, and see how that goes.\nFINA meet in February to discuss. As always, whatever the outcome, we\u2019ll do the analysis right here!\nTop 2 coming up in the week before Christmas!\nA cricket comment for those outside the USA\nP.S. I\u2019ve just finished watching the conclusion of the First Test Match between Australia and South Africa. As many will know, SA won by 6 wickets \u2013 a win many thought was improbable given the fact that SA had to chase down 414 to win.\nIt was a great batting performance, and credit to the SA batsmen. However (and I\u2019m going against the grain here, being South African), it was entirely predictable, and I was not surprised at the win, given the Australian bowling impotence at the moment.\nAs is typical of South Africa, we are currently over-reacting dramatically to the result. \u201cIt\u2019s the greatest Test match ever played\u201d were the words of one analyst in SA. \u201cSouth Africa\u2019s greatest moment in history\u201d were the words of another.\nTruth is, when you look at the performances, you realise that in five days of cricket, Australia managed to take 14 wickets \u2013 11 of them went to one bowler (Mitchell Johnson), and five of those came in about 20 minutes on day two. That means that other that this brilliant performance, the Aussie bowlers managed to take 3 wickets between them.\nThey were completely impotent, as they were in India recently, where, in four matches, they took only 59 wickets (remember that 80 would be required to win), and conceded 2,877 runs. That\u2019s 49 runs per wicket, which is abysmal \u2013 the opposition thus averages 490 given ten wickets (and that\u2019s not including the fact that India would have declared on some occasions, and includes tail-enders \u2013 the average of the top 6 batsmen is in the mid-50\u2019s).\nSo, before we celebrate South Africa\u2019s \u201cremarkable\u201d performance, let\u2019s bear in mind that many of the world\u2019s best batsmen would be lining up to play this current Aussie bowling line-up \u2013 they could improve their batting averages somewhat.",

        "raw_content": "More feedback on football and cycling // World Cup Final analysis and more on cycling performance limits\nI have too little energy (and time) for a proper, in-depth post, but as promised, analysis from last night\u2019s World Cup final is now done, courtesy Zonal Marking.\nIt\u2019s another great analysis, from a site that has really increased my enjoyment of the tournament, and you can read it here. I wish that all sports would embrace this kind of analysis \u2013 can you imagine if the \u201cexperts\u201d on television produced such clear and insightful thinking for rugby, football, tennis, cycling, and even athletics?\nOne or two thoughts on the analysis \u2013 I agree that Holland set out with spoiling tactics and wanted to physically disrupt Spain\u2019s creativity. Early on in the game, the flurry of fouls predicted that at some point, a red would be issued. It might well have been in the first half, with two horror challenges getting lenient treatment, but it could easily have been 11 against 10 as early as 35 minutes. Spain were involved too, and it\u2019s always an interesting dynamic how the entire game degenerates into petulance and over-aggression when one team starts out with that approach. That certainly seemed the case last night.\nThere has been much criticism of referee Howard Webb, but I feel that his performance was more a reflection of the players\u2019 performances rather than a controlling one. He could easily have shown red on two or three occasions before 90 minutes was played. And also, I have to point out, given that we\u2019ve had so much debate on this site about the cheating and fouling in football \u2013 if that was Uruguay or Italy or another South American team, and not Holland, there\u2019d have been an uproar, widespread condemnation for \u2018typical dirty play\u2019. Spain weren\u2019t blameless, no, but for Holland last night, it was a poor showing.\nThe last 20 minutes of the match and extra-time finally told. Space appeared (which it always does \u2013 as we saw with our post on fatigue, players lose about 8 to 10% of their speed by the end, making it much more difficult to press and close space). Spain looked more likely to construct a goal, Holland remained dangerous on the break, but in the end, Spain wrestled control away and for the last 50 minutes of the match, were completely in control. All they lacked was incision and composure in front of goal. David Villa was poor for a second game \u2013 he is not suited to that lone central striker role and looked far more threatening when playing wide and coming in. If Spain had him out there and an in-form Torres, they\u2019d have scored twice as many goals this tournament.\nLastly, as Zonal Marking points out, Spain have won the European Championships and the World Cup, playing seven knock-out matches and not conceding a single goal in those games. Attack wins matches, but defence wins tournaments.\nCycling \u2013 more on doping and performance limits\nWe\u2019ve had some lively debate just recently regarding whether performances, and the physiological basis they require, can be used to flag (not prove, let me emphasize) doping.\nAnd today, the New York Times ran a piece looking at much the same thing. You can read it here.\nThis is another example of what I consider very interesting, well applied science to the sport. I agree with Aldo Sassi around his limit to performance, I do agree that there is a grey area, and I believe that this grey area exists below 6.2 W/kg. Others disagree, I\u2019m sure. Some have said this is \u201cscience at its worst\u201d. I couldn\u2019t disagree more strongly \u2013 it\u2019s science at its best, being applied in the pursuit of an answer. The very fact that it is debated makes it worthy of discussion, since there is no answer but a compelling reason to question.\nPeople will always decide, of course, based on what they want to believe. We will see what happens in this year\u2019s Tour, but if the top 5 of this year\u2019s Tour are climbing at the same power outputs as the Top 30 from Tours in the early part of the century, then either cycling has a vacuum of talent, or we\u2019re seeing an indictment of the 2000s, and the cleaning up of the sport now. And physiological demands of the sport will highlight that change.",

So, even if you only have $50-$100 to get started, you can build a diversified portfolio by investing in fractions of company shares on the Beanstox app.\nDon\u2019t Try to be a \u201cStock Picker.\u201d\nTrying to beat the market by picking individual stocks is a risky strategy, especially if you don\u2019t have a lot of money to get started. A less risky strategy to deploy would be to focus on building a diversified portfolio. This means your investments should span different industries, asset classes, and geographic locations. The reason for this is that, historically speaking, it\u2019s unlikely for these subsections of the market to move in unison. Therefore, spreading your investments out over various subsections of the market, helps to manage risk and protect your portfolio from major volatility.\nOne easy way to build a diversified portfolio is to invest in some ETFs, which are securities that track an index, a commodity, bonds, or a basket of assets. Some ETFs, such as the SPDR DIA, which mirrors the Dow Jones Industrial Average, follow a benchmark index, which tracks economic movements in a particular portion of the market. So, by investing in just a few ETFs, you can gain exposure to multiple companies, asset classes, and industries. However, it\u2019s important to keep in mind that there are additional embedded costs. All ETFs have expense ratios which cover the costs of operating the fund. These costs are embedded into the price of the ETF.\nInvesting is something you should strive to make a habit. Not one of those annoying habits, like making sure you have clean socks at the start of every week, but a habit that is easy to stick with- so easy, that it\u2019s a no-brainer. If you make it part of your routine to regularly add $5, $10, $20, or whatever amount you\u2019re comfortable with to your portfolio, you can take advantage of dollar-cost-averaging. This basically means that you\u2019ll keep investing regularly, regardless of share price, so you\u2019ll buy more shares when prices are low and fewer shares when prices are high. Eventually, the average cost per share will decrease. Dollar-cost averaging lessens your investing risk because you aren\u2019t seeking to time the market by putting all your money into an investment at a single point in time, which allows you to focus on diversification as you invest. It\u2019s good to think big, but it pays to start small.\nBeanstox app\u2019s brokerage service partner, DriveWealth\u2019s unique Fractional share program allows you to purchase securities in dollar amounts rather than share quantities. Please be advised that trading in fractional shares has unique risks and limitations that you should understand prior to participation in DriveWealth\u2019s Fractional Share Program.",

        "raw_content": "A brilliant new building\u2026.\nWe have been without a library in West Bridgford for some time \u2013 the old one was closed to allow for a refurbishment and extension to be done. There was a temporary library in some first floor offices which was a good effort, but was rather like a large cupboard by comparison to the old library!\nHowever the new building has now opened (actually over a week ago) and I had a visit this last weekend. My initial impression is of a light and spacious library with the feel of a book shop more than a traditional library. This is not a criticism \u2013 it works, the space is very inviting and relaxed \u2013 it is very busy as well! It is so good to go to a public library and literally find it full of all ages and frankly buzzing with activity.\nThe building we have ended up with is a scaled down version of the original proposal that got \u2018canned\u2019 due to the cuts. If the result we see today is anything to go by that would have been amazing!\nSo credit where credit is due \u2013 the County Council have done a first class job here. Well worth a visit if you are local to it.\nThis entry was posted in Nottingham and tagged Cuts, library, Nottingham, Notts County Council, public buildings, West Bridgford.\nThere are still some decent people out there\u2026..\nIt is great once in a while to have your faith in human nature confirmed, we do live in what seems to be an increasingly uncaring society, so an act of kindness is great to see. The reason for my comment?\nLast week my son lost his wallet, he didn\u2019t actually realise this until Friday (he is 15 so doesn\u2019t carry it all the time) when he was about to go into town to meet some friends. A brief but frantic search ensued, but it was soon apparent that it had been lost. Phone calls followed to the bank to cancel his debit card, Nottingham City Transport to cancel his bus pass etc \u2013 you get the idea. He was also rather cross as he had left rather a lot of cash in the wallet (despite various warnings to remove it!)\nSo all in all, a bad start to the weekend! But, due to the act of a very kind gent who found the wallet and delivered it to Lloyds Bank in West Bridgford, who then rang us to report the delivery to them (the card was from Lloyds) he got it all back!\nThe wallet was delivered to Lloyds because the finder was not \u2018confident\u2019 that the Police would be the best place to take it \u2013 a rather damning indictment of our boys in blue\u2026..\nI wonder what percentage of people finding the wallet would have acted in the same way, unfortunately I believe we fell very lucky.\nThis entry was posted in General, Nottingham and tagged Lloyds bank, lost wallet, petty crime, social conscience, West Bridgford.\nThe Queen of the East Midlands\nIn real terms I am a relative newcomer to Nottingham and the East Midlands \u2013 I arrived in 1980 as a student and have never left. Nottingham has always been described as \u2018The Queen of the East Midlands\u2019 in my time here, and I would have to agree \u2013 it is a great city (and stands above its neighbours in my opinion).\nIn recent years the young pretenders (Derby and Leicester) have done their best to catch up and pass Nottingham \u2013 new shopping centres and general improvements have helped. Nottingham has also managed to shoot itself in the foot by totally missing the boat on the Broadmarsh redevelopment. The damage this has done to our city cannot be underestimated and in time the main culprits will become known and will most likely pay for their lack of action.\nSo it is great to see in this last week that Nottingham, not Derby or Leicester has the most \u2018desirable\u2019 residential street in the East Midlands. The attractiveness of the street is based on average value, it is still a long way behind top UK values, but is a sign that Nottingham is still the place to live in the East Midlands!\nThe street in question is Valley Road in West Bridgford \u2013 average values over the period January 2007 and October 2011were \u00a3810,000 the figure is lower than last year when the average home in the street was priced at \u00a3823,000. The figures come from a Lloyds TSB report that reveals the most expensive streets in the UK. Perhaps unsurprisingly the 40 most expensive streets are all in London and the south east, with Egerton Crescent in Kensington and Chelsea taking first position with an average house costing almost 10 times the East Midlands level at \u00a38.14 million!\nThis entry was posted in General, Nottingham and tagged Lloyds TSB, Nottingham, property values, West Bridgford.",

        "raw_content": "How did indsutrialization benefit and harm society\nHow did Industrialization benefit and harm society\nThe Industrialization was the time when inventions were being created, jobs were becoming more readily available, and society was expanding. The Industrialization benefited society in many different aspects. These aspects include the overall health of the society, the money that became available, the cost of everything decreasing, and inventions that were created.\nThe overall health of the society was increasing due to the better quality food they were receiving. With a better health a persons life expectancy could be lengthened. If a persons life expectancy was lengthened that meant that they could do more for a longer amount of time. Also a benefit that came from the health improving was that this led to sanitation which helped with the rapid spread of disease.\nThe money that had become available to society was increasing as well. The money that people were receiving for working in the factories allowed them to buy new and different foods that had a better quality. Thus increasing their overall health as mentioned before. The incoming revenue that families gained allowed them to buy more goods as well therefore boosting the economy even more. Food prices, clothing prices, and everything that was a necessity for a family had decreased in price. The standard of living went up as well.\nInventions had a large impact on society whether it be the farmers or the wealthy or the bourgeoisie. Inventions include the spinning jenny, power loom, and the cotton gin. The spinning jenny invented in 1764 by James Hargreaves. This machine was able to be used at home instead of at a factory. It produced more product in a faster way. It also cost less and used less human power. Another invention was the power loom created by Edward Cartwright in 1785. This invention helped to reduce the amount of time needed to harvest cotton and produced cheaper cotton as well.

Thus, fruits that bud before this date will belong to the previous year with regard to the rules of terumot and ma\u2019asrot; if they bud afterwards, then they will belong to the subsequent year\nThe Mishna taught: On the first of Shevat is the new year for trees, according to the statement of Beit Shammai. The Gemara asks: What is the reason that the new year for trees was set on this date? Rabbi Elazar said that Rabbi Oshaya said: The reason is since by that time most of the year\u2019s rains have already fallen, and most of the season, i.e., winter, is yet to come, as it continues until the spring equinox, which usually occurs in Nisan.\nSince Tu bi-Shevat is based on the lunar calendar, it can fluctuate anywhere from January 17 until February 14, although in most years it falls out at the end of January or beginning of February. Winter runs from December 22 through March 21, so most years the majority of winter occurs after Tu bi-Shevat. As far as the rainy season in Israel is concerned, there is evidence that suggests that in ancient times rains fell earlier in the year than they do today. Nevertheless, even today more than 50% of annual rainfall takes place before February, so usually most rainfall comes prior to Tu bi-Shevat.\nHow do Beit Shammai and Beit Hillel arrive at the dates that they choose to identify as the new year?\nThe Me\u2019iri suggests that this date is the middle of the rainy period. Perhaps Beit Shammai is reluctant to divide a month in half (the Talmud Yerushalmi teaches that the months are established as single units based on the passage in Shemot 12:2 \u2013 le-hodshei ha-shanah \u2013 \u201cof the months of the year\u201d). Beit Hillel, on the other hand, is less concerned with keeping every month as a single unit, and is more concerned with the relationship between the trees and the natural cycle of the seasons.",

        "title": "When to Stop Investing in People | LeadToday",
        "raw_content": "When to Stop Investing in People\nI frequently speak with groups on the topic of leadership. Sometimes the groups are just too large to have a real two-way conversation but once in a while they are small enough to allow for a real dialogue to take place. Those are my favorite presentations.\nLast week was one of those smaller interactions. One of the questions I received was as serious, challenging and complicated as a question can get.\nThe question came during a segment in which I was speaking about the difference between a management mindset and the mindset of a leader. A management mindset thinks \u201cI have a person working for me who isn\u2019t getting the job done. I better spend some time on them.\u201d A leadership mindset thinks, \u201cI have a person working with me who isn\u2019t getting the job done, I better invest some time with them.\u201d\nLeaders see people as an investment, not an expense.\nLet\u2019s be clear on this, leadership is about people. We don\u2019t lead companies, we don\u2019t lead budgets, we don\u2019t lead buildings or inventories, we manage them. We lead people!\nPeople don\u2019t want to be managed, they want leadership. You\u2019ll hear people complain every single day about being micro-managed but you\u2019ve probably never heard a person say the word, micro-led.\nLeaders invest their time, experience, knowledge and even a piece of themselves in the development of their people. The success of their people is as important to them as their own success. If their people fail they take at least partial ownership in that failure.\nThere does come a time when a leader has done all that they can do and still one of their people is just not progressing. Investing in people is much more complicated than any other investment, there is much more at stake. But just like any other investment that doesn\u2019t work out, at some point in time you just have to cut your losses.\nThe question I was asked was, \u201cWhen is it time to stop investing in a person and let them go?\u201d\nTHAT is one big question. I hate failing at anything, I hate failing with people development even more. I\u2019m supposed to be good at it, I\u2019m supposed to help people perform better. When I don\u2019t then I\u2019ve failed. So the decision to stop investing is a big one\u2026 but it\u2019s not a hard one.\nHere\u2019s how I answered the question.\nI stop investing when the good of the one begins to outweigh the good of the many. Simply stated, when the time required to help just one person grow begins to negatively impact and limit the amount of time I can invest with the rest of the team, I have to stop investing in the \u201cone.\u201d\nThis is particularly true when there seems to be little or no return on that investment. No leader can sacrifice the \u201cmany\u201d for the \u201cone.\u201d\nLetting someone go, demoting them or reassigning them is a terrible decision to have to make, but leaders make that decision. Leaders do not let their ego get in the way, they admit, that for whatever reason, this is \u201cone\u201d they just can\u2019t help develop.\nLeaders do what needs to be done, that\u2019s one way, one very big way, that you can tell they are a leader.\nBuilding a LeaderBuilding PeopleInvesting in PeopleLeadershipLeadingSuccess\n2 thoughts on \u201cWhen to Stop Investing in People\u201d\nI like the distinction between the management vs. leadership mindset.\nI\u2019m a fan of words. It\u2019s interesting how the words working for me vs. working with me and spending time vs. investing time have a completely different outlook.\nThanks Steve, it took me a while to figure out that how I said something was perhaps even more important than the something I said. Words make a huge difference \u2013 they show our true thoughts.",

        "raw_content": "Studies Focusing on Chiropractic\nStudies Focusing on ChiropracticSt. Margaret Bay Chiropractic2017-12-06T12:44:56+00:00\nThe Wilk vs. AMA (American Medical Association) Lawsuit\nAnother inquiry that further validated chiropractic came about through an antitrust suit filed by four members of the chiropractic profession against the American Medical Association (AMA). and a number of other medical organizations in the United States (Wilk et al v. AMA et al, No.90-542, October 1990).\nIn 1987, following 11 years of legal action, a federal appellate court judge ruled that the AMA had engaged in a \u201clengthy, systematic, successful and unlawful boycott\u201d designed to restrict cooperation between MDs and chiropractors in order to eliminate the profession of chiropractic as a competitor in the United States health care system. During the preceedings it was shown that the AMA attempted to :\nUndermine Chiropractic schools\nUndercut insurance programs for Chiropractic patients\nConceal evidence of the effectiveness of Chiropractic care\nSubvert government inquires into the effectiveness of Chiropractic\nPromote other activities that would control the monopoly that the AMA had on health care\n(This was upheld by the 7th United States Circuit Court of Appeals.)\nThe AMA offered a patient care defense; however, data from Workmen\u2019s Compensation Bureau studies served to validate chiropractic care. Specifically, studies comparing chiropractic care to care by a medical physician were presented which showed that chiropractors were \u201ctwice as effective as medical physicians, for comparable injuries, in returning injured workers to work at every level of injury severity.\u201d\nThe settlement of the suit included an injunctive order in which the AMA was instructed to cease its efforts to restrict the professional association of chiropractors and AMA members. The AMA was also ordered to notify its 275,000 members of the court\u2019s injunction. In addition, the American Hospital Association (AHA) sent out 440,000 separate notices to inform hospitals across the United States that the AHA has no objection to allowing chiropractic care in hospitals.\nSince the court findings and conclusions were released, a growing number of medical doctors, hospitals, and health care organizations in the United States have begun including the services of chiropractors.\nNumerous research studies and various government inquiries have resulted in increasingly widespread recognition of chiropractic, and generally support the efficacy of chiropractic treatment. Excerpts from some of these studies have been highlighted below.\nThe Agency for Health Care Policy and Research\nOn December 8, 1994, The Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, released an extensive study of diagnostic and treatment methods for acute low back pain. This condition is the most common health complaint experienced by working Americans today, and a condition which costs the economy at least $50 billion a year in lost wages and productivity.\nThe AHCPR panel \u2014 a 23-member committee of medical doctors, nurses,chiropractic doctors, experts in spine research, physical therapists, a psychologist, an occupational therapist and a consumer representative \u2014 concluded, among other things, that:\nspinal manipulation is a recommended treatment for acute low back problems in adults;\nconservative treatment such as manipulation should be pursued \u2014 in most cases \u2014 before surgical interventions are considered;\nCanadian Studies on Chiropractic \u2013 The Manga Report\nA major report on the effectiveness of chiropractic treatment was published in 1993. Tile report, entitled The Effectiveness and Cost-Effectiveness of Chiropractic Management of Low-Back Pain, was funded by the Ministry of Health in Ontario to assess the most appropriate use of health care resources.\nThe Ministry was particularly interested in reducing the incidence of work-related injuries and in improving the rehabilitation of disabled and injured workers. The report stated that in the past year, \u201ctwelve to thirty percent of people in modern industrialized societies reported low back pain.\u2019\nIn light of these concerns, a massive literature review on the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of chiropractic treatment was undertaken by an independent panel of researchers associated with the University of Ottawa. Their findings, outlined below, overwhelmingly support the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of chiropractic for the treatment of low-back pain:\nScientifically valid clinical studies support the fact that chiropractic spinal manipulation is \u201cmore effective than alternative treatments for LBP (low-back pain). Many medical therapies are of questionable validity or are clearly inadequate.\n\u201cThere would be a highly significant cost savings if more management of LBP was transferred from physicians to chiropractors. Evidence from Canada and other countries suggests potential savings of hundreds of millions annually. The literature clearly and consistently shows that the major savings from chiropractic management come from fewer and lower costs of auxiliary services, much fewer hospitalizations, and a highly significant reduction in chronic problems, as well as in levels and duration of disability.\u201d\n\u201cThere is no clinical or case-control study that demonstrates or even implies that chiropractic spinal manipulation is unsafe in the treatment of low-back pain. Some medical treatments are equally safe, but others are unsafe and generate iatrogenic complications for LBP patients \u2026 The literature suggests that chiropractic manipulation is safer than medical management of low-back pain.\u201d\n\u201cWhile it is prudent to call for even further clinical evidence of the effectiveness and efficacy of chiropractic management of LBP, what the literature revealed \u2026 is the much greater need for clinical evidence of the validity of medical management of LBP. Indeed, several existing medical therapies of LBP are generally contraindicated on the basis of the existing clinical trials. There is also some evidence in the literature to suggest that spinal manipulations are less safe and less effective when performed by non-chiropractic professionals.\u201d\n\u201cThere is an overwhelming body of evidence indicating that chiropractic management of low-back pain is more cost-effective than medical management \u2026 The evidence includes studies showing lower chiropractic costs for the same diagnosis and episodic need for care.\u201d\n\u201cThere is good empirical evidence that patients are very satisfied with chiropractic management of LBP and considerably less satisfied with physician management. Patient satisfaction is an important health outcome indicator and adds further weight to the clinical and health economic results favouring chiropractic management of LBP.\u201d\nThe report concluded with various recommendations including fully integrating chiropractic services into the health care system, shifting policy to encourage and prefer chiropractic services for most patients with low-back pain, employing chiropractors in tertiary hospitals, and extending hospital privileges to chiropractors.\nThe following are summaries of additional Canadian studies on Chiropractic:\nA study of spinal manipulation involving 283 patients with chronic low-back and leg pain was conducted at a \u201cspecialized university back pain clinic reserved for patients who have not responded to previous conservative or operative treatment\u201d located at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. In this study, which involved research conducted by both a medical doctor and a chiropractor, all patients were initially classified as totally disabled. Daily spinal manipulations were administered and the effects of this treatment were assessed at one month and at three months. Results revealed that 81% of the patients became symptom free or achieved a state of mild intermittent pain with no work restrictions. (Kirkaldy-Willis, Cassidy 1985).\nA study of 744 patients with neck and back pain who had been referred from hospitals, private practice specialists, general practitioners, and chiropractors analyzed tile effectiveness of chiropractic manipulation. The results revealed that 36% of the patients recovered (became symptom-free with no work restrictions), 34.5% became much improved (mildly symptomatic and able to function normally), 7.3% slightly improved (possible activity restrictions), 21.6% showed no change, and 0.6% became worse, The study also revealed that \u201cpost- surgical patients do very well under chiropractic care, and in fact at this center, patients are routinely referred back to us three months after surgery for maintenance care\u201d (Potter 1977).\nThe Back Pain Clinic at the Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, reviewed literature pertinent to \u201cSide Posture Manipulation for Lumbar Intervertebral Disk Herniation.\u201d The authors of the study concluded that \u201cthe treatment Intervertebral disk herniation by side posture manipulation is both safe and effective\u201d (Cassidy et al. 1993).\nOther Studies on Chiropractic\nIn addition to the Canadian studies previously cited, many other studies have explored chiropractic treatment. These have focused on tile effectiveness of chiropractic treatment for back pain, for work-related Injuries, and for other disorders. The following is a brief summary of some of these studies:\nRAND, a non-profit research organization, has completed three studies in the United States on chiropractic, with a fourth study currently underway.\nThe first study, a population-based estimate concerning the use of chiropractic services, reported in the American Journal of Public Health, that \u201cchiropractors deliver a substantial amount of health care to the U.S. population, and there are significant geographic variations in the rate and intensity of use of chiropractic services\u201d (Skekelle 1991).\nThe second study, \u201cSpinal Manipulation for Low-Back Pain,\u201d published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, affirmed that spinal manipulation is of benefit to some patients with acute low-back pain (Shekelle and Adams 1992).\nThe third study created two sets of appropriateness ratings for spinal manipulation. One set of ratings was developed by a multi-disciplinary panel and the other set was prepared by an all-chiropractic panel (Shekelle et al. 1992).\nThe fourth study, currently underway, is to determine the types of health case problems for which people seek chiropractic care and the types of care people receive from chiropractors. This study is expected to be completed in 1994.\nIn Australia, a 12-month study conducted by the Australian Centre for Chiropractic Research included all work-related low-back pain claimants. Individuals were identified who received care either from a chiropractor or a medical practitioner. The results indicated that:\nWhen chiropractic management was chosen fewer claimants required compensation and fewer compensation days were taken\nWhen medical management was chosen, the average payment per claim was greater and a greater number of patients regressed to chronic status (Ebrall 1992).\nA study reported in the British Medical Journal included 741 patients between the ages of 18 and 65 who suffered from chronic or severe back pain and who sought care in chiropractic and hospital out-patient clinics. After two years of patient monitoring, researchers concluded that \u201cfor patients with low-back pain in whom manipulation is not contraindicated, chiropractic almost certainly confers worthwhile, long-term benefit in comparison with hospital out-patient management\u201d (Meade et al. 1990).\nResearchers conducted a study of workers\u2019 compensation cases in Florida and concluded that \u201ca claimant with a back-related injury, when initially treated by a chiropractor versus a medical doctor, is less likely to become temporarily disabled, or if disabled, remains disabled for a shorter period of time; and claimants treated by medical doctors were hospitalized at a much higher rate than claimants treated by chiropractors\u201d (Wolk 1988).\nFrom a survey of those receiving care from health maintenance organizations (HMOs) in Washington state it was concluded that \u201c\u2026patients of chiropractors were three times as likely as patients of family physicians to report that they were satisfied with the care they received for low-back pain\u2026 Chiropractic patients were also more likely to have been satisfied with the amount of information they were given and to believe their doctor was concerned about them\u201d (Cherkin and MacComack 1989)\n\u201cFamily Physicians, Chiropractors, and Back Pain,\u201d is the title of an article published in the Journal of Family Practice (November 1992), addressing a comparative United States study of patients of family physicians and chiropractors. The article stated that \u201cthe number of days of disability for patients seen by family physicians was significantly higher (mean 39,7) than for patients managed by chiropractors (mean 10.8)\u201d (Curtis and Bove 1992). A related editorial published in We same issue of the Journal of Family Practice stated that family physicians should accept the fact that \u201c\u2026spinal manipulation is one of the few conservative treatments for low-back pain that have [sic] been found to be effective in randomized trials. The risks of complications from lumbar manipulation are also very low\u201d (Cherkin 1992). The latter conclusion is supported by a study published by the Chiropractic Journal of Australia which reported that \u201ca descriptive analysis of obtainable literature on complications from low-back SMT (spinal manipulation treatment) from 1911 to 1991 indicates that, on the average, less than one case per year occurs\u201d (Terrett and Kleynhans 1992).\nThe Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, published in the United States, reported results of a study of women between the ages of 20 and 49 with a history of dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation); \u201d\nSMT may be an effective and safe non-pharmacolocical alternative for relieving the pain and distress of primary dysmenorrhea, at least for a short period of time after treatment\u201d (Kokjohn et al. 1992).\nA number of United States clinical studies cite success rates ranging from 72% to 90% for the treatment of headaches utilizing spinal manipulation therapy. For example, a study reported in the American Chiropractic Association\u2019s Journal of Chiropractic reported that 74.6% of patients with recurring headaches, including those experiencing migraines, were either cured or experienced reduced symptomatology associated with their headaches after receiving chiropractic manipulation. Most importantly, the success rate was maintained two years after treatment ended (Wight 1978).\nA number of studies have documented the effectiveness of chiropractic treatment for a variety of other conditions including soft tissue injuries and viscera\u2019 disorders (Plaugher 1993; Lewit 1985; and Korr 1978).\nStudies Focusing on the Cost-Effectiveness of Chiropractic\nHistorically, chiropractors have promoted chiropractic management of back pain as a cost effective approach to alleviating this condition. The following studies support this assertion:\nA study conducted in the United States involving 395,641 patients with one or more of 493 neuromusculoskeletal conditions was undertaken to compare the health care costs of patients who have received chiropractic treatment to those treated solely by medical or osteopathic physicians. The results showed that \u201cpatients receiving chiropractic care experienced significantly lower health care costs \u2026 (with) total cost differences on the order of $1000 over the 2-year period \u2026\u201d The report concluded that\u201d\u2026 these preliminary results suggest a significant cost-saving potential for users of chiropractic care.\u201d The report of the study also suggests the need to re-examine insurance practices and programs relative to chiropractic coverage (Stano 1993).\nThe Florida study on workers\u2019 compensation claims, previously cited in reference to back pain, found that \u201cthe estimated average total cost of care, computed across all the major categories of treatment cost, was substantially higher for medical patients compared with chiropractic patients\u2026\u201d The authors of the study included that chiropractic care is more cost-effective in the treatment of work-related back injuries than standard medical care (Wow 1988).\nA 1988 workers\u2019 compensation study conducted in Utah assessed the total cost per case of chiropractic care versus medical care for conditions with identical diagnostic codes. The results indicated that costs were significantly higher for medical claims than for chiropractic claims, In addition, the number of work days lost for those receiving medical care was nearly 10 times higher than for those who received chiropractic care (Jarvis, Phillips, and Morris 1991).\nA comparison of the cost of chiropractic care versus the cost of medical care for various health conditions (predominantly low-back pain, spinal-related sprains, strains, dislocations, arthritis, and disc disorders), revealed that \u201cchiropractic is a lower cost option for several prominent back-related ailments \u2026 If chiropractic care is insured to the extent other specialists are stipulated, it may emerge as a first option for patients with certain medical conditions. This could very well result in a decrease in overall treatment costs for these conditions\u201d (Dean and Schrnidt 1992),\nA review of data from over two million users of chiropractic care in the United States was reported in the Journal of American Health Policy. Initial analysis indicated that \u201cchiropractic users tend to have substantially lower total health care costs\u201d and \u201cchiropractic care reduces the use of both physician and hospital care\u201d (Stano et al. 1992).\nA workers\u2019 compensation study conducted in Oregon (1990) evaluated the loss of working time incurred by chiropractic (DC) and medical (MD) claimants with disabling low-back work-related injuries. Authors of the study concluded that \u201cthe median time loss days for cases with comparable clinical presentation (severity) was 9.0 for DC cases and 11.5 for MD cases. Chiropractic claimants had a higher frequency of return to work with one week or less of time loss.\u201d (Nyiendo 1991).\nA study, published in 1992, compared the cost-effectiveness of chiropractic care to medical care in the commonwealth of Virginia. The report of the study indicated that chiropractic:\nhas minimal cost-increasing effects on insurance and may in fact reduce insurance costs.\nprovides important therapeutic benefits at economical costs.\nThis study also recommended that chiropractic care be a widely available form of health care, and noted that it is a growing and widely used component of the health care sector (Schifrin 1992).\nUtilization and Public Opinion Surveys\nAdditional studies have assessed the utilization and acceptance of chiropractic services throughout Canada and the United States. A few of these studies are described in subsequent paragraphs:\nA survey in the province of Ontario revealed that a majority of MDs in family practice (62%) were referring patients to chiropractors. Nearly half of these MDs (42.3%) had been referring patients for the past 1-5 years, with the referral rate being slightly higher among MDs who had graduated before 1960 (60%) and between 1960 and 1980 (63%) than for those who had graduated in the past 10 years (53.8%). In addition, the study revealed that 9.5% of these MDs had received chiropractic care themselves (Patel-Christopher 1990).\nA Gallup poll conducted in the United States and reported in March of 1991 examined the attitudes and behaviors of both users and nonusers of chiropractic services. Of the users of chiropractic services:\n90% felt chiropractic treatment was effective;\nmore than 80% were satisfied with their treatment;\nnearly 73% felt most of their expectations had been met during their visits;\n68% would see a chiropractor again for treatment of a similar condition;\n30% would likely see a chiropractor again for other conditions.\nOf the non-users of chiropractic services:\n62% indicated they would see a doctor of chiropractic for a problem applicable to chiropractic treatment;\n23% reported that someone in their household had been treated by a chiropractor, and nearly 80% of those were satisfied with that treatment.\nA 1983 survey of North Dakota residents, also conducted by the Gallup Organization, indicated that awareness and use of chiropractic services in the state were very high. Nearly 100% of the residents had heard of chiropractors, and almost half of the residents (49%) reported that they had been examined or treated by a chiropractor at some time. One in six residents (17%) had seen a chiropractor in the past year.\nGovernment and Legal Inquiries\nChiropractic is legally recognized or allowed to be practiced without official sanction in approximately 39 countries. Varying degrees of investigation into the appropriateness of chiropractic treatment preceded the official stance of these countries.\nIn recent years, the Canadian and United States governments have begun requiring that health professionals provide guidelines for use in assessing the appropriateness of care. In an attempt to address this requirement, 33 chiropractors in North America were invited to participate in a conference held in early 1992 at the Mercy Center in Burlingame, California. A publication released in early 1993 entitled, Guidelines for Chiropractic Quality Assurance and Practice Parameters, related the proceedings of that conference.\nDuring April 1993, the Canadian Chiropractic Association sponsored a conference in Toronto to establish clinical guidelines for chiropractic standards of care in Canada. The participating members included chiropractors from various chiropractic organizations throughout Canada. Results of this conference will be published in a report scheduled for release at the end of 1993.\nThe New Zealand Commission of Inquiry\nAnother particularly significant study of chiropractic was conducted by the New Zealand Commission of Inquiry. In its 377-page report to the House of Representatives, the Commission states that their report followed an extended (two-year) inquiry which at that time was \u201cprobably the most comprehensive and detailed independent examination of chiropractic ever undertaken in any country.\u201d Excerpts from the Commission\u2019s report follow:\n\u201cWe entered into our inquiry in early 1978. We had no clear idea what might emerge. We knew little about chiropractors. None of us had undergone any personal experience of chiropractic treatment. If we had any general impression of chiropractic it was probably that shared by many in the community: that chiropractic was an unscientific cult, not to be compared with orthodox medical or paramedical services. We might well have thought that chiropractors were people with perhaps a strong urge for healing, who had for some reason not been able to get into a field recognized by orthodox medicine and who had found an outlet outside the fringes of orthodoxy.\n\u201cBut as we prepared ourselves for this inquiry it became apparent that much lay beneath the surface of these apparently simple terms of reference. In the first place it transpired that for many years chiropractors had been making strenuous efforts to gain recognition and acceptance as members of the established health care team. Secondly, it was clear that organized medicine the New Zealand was adamantly opposed to this on a variety of grounds which appeared logical and responsible. Thirdly, however, it became only too plain that the argument had been going on ever since chiropractic was developed as an individual discipline in the late 1800\u2019s, and that in the years between then and now the debate had generated considerable more heat than light.\n\u201cBy the end of the inquiry we found ourselves irresistibly and with complete unanimity drawn to the conclusion that modern chiropractic is a soundly-based and valuable branch of the health care in a specialized area\u2026\u201d\nSpecific conclusions of the Commission\u2019s report, based on investigations in New Zealand, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia, were as follows:\nModern chiropractic is far from being an \u201cunscientific cult\u201d\nChiropractic is a branch of the healing arts specializing in the correction by spinal manual therapy of what chiropractors identify as biomechanical disorders of the spinal column. They carry out spinal diagnosis and therapy at a sophisticated and refined level.\nChiropractors are the only health practitioners who are necessarily equipped by their education and training to carry out spinal manual therapy.\nGeneral medical practitioners and physiotherapists have no adequate training in spinal manual therapy, though a few have acquired skill in it subsequent to graduation.\nThe education and training of a registered chiropractor are sufficient to enable him to determine whether\u2026 the patient should have medical care instead of or as well as chiropractic care.\nSpinal manual therapy can be effective in relieving musculoskeletal symptoms such as back pain, and other symptoms known to respond to such therapy, such as migraine.\nIn a limited number of cases where there are organic and/or visceral symptoms, chiropractic treatment may provide relief, but this is unpredictable, and in such cases the patient should be under concurrent medical care if that is practicable.\nAlthough the precise nature of the biomechanical dysfunction and\u2026 the precise reasons why spinal manual therapy provides relief have not yet been scientifically explained, chiropractors have reasonable grounds based on clinical evidence for their belief that symptoms of the kind described above can respond beneficially to spinal manual therapy.\nIn the public interest and in the interest of patients there must be no impediment to full professional cooperation between chiropractors and medical practitioners.\nSubsequent to the New Zealand Inquiry, the Australian Federal Minister of Health requested that a Committee be formed to consider extending the scope of (government-funded) Medicare benefits for certain services, including chiropractic.\nThe Committee accepted all of the findings of the New Zealand commission, and also noted the \u201csignificant shift in the last decade in attitude \u2026 towards the issue of scientific research\u201d in chiropractic. It also recommended funding for chiropractic in hospitals and other public institutions, and endorsed greater philosophical unity in chiropractic.\nSwedish government\u2019s Commission on Alternative Medicine\nAnother noteworthy study was conducted in 1987 by the Swedish government\u2019s Commission on Alternative Medicine. It reached conclusions consistent with the New Zealand and Australian studies and also stated that:\nChiropractors with the Doctor of Chiropractic degree should become registered practitioners and be brought within the national insurance system.\nThe university-level training of DCs is equivalent to Swedish medical training.\nDCs have competency in differential diagnosis and should be regulated on a primary care basis.\nMeasures to improve cooperation between chiropractors, registered medical practitioners and physiotherapists are vital to the public interest",

It allows you to configure a hierarchical structure of Groups, Divisions and Team Members.\nA division is a grouping of team members. Typically, a division might be member servicing, employer servicing, or financial advice. Team members can belong to multiple divisions but they will always have a primary division. The division is one of the top level analytics and management views available within PractiFI. Divisions themselves are also hierarchical, which means that they can belong to other divisions.\nA group is also a grouping of team members. Typically, groups are configured for other functions within the fund that are not captured by divisions. For example, you may have a sales group that spans multiple divisions but still require consolidated management and reporting over its functions.\nLet's say you have three internal financial planning teams (in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane) which are configured as divisions. Within the fund, there are also three operational functions (advice, member services and paraplanning) - which would be configured as groups.\nA financial planner from the Sydney team would have visibility into both the Sydney office and the advice group, and workflow generated by this team member could be aggregated and reported on from either context.\nYour PractiFI System Administrator can configure divisions to suit your fund.",

This one has a special premise that may change your perspective on life. In most games you can see where you are going, but in this game you will not be able to do that. It may seem like a problem to you but it is actually a part of the game that you will get used to.\nIn Ember\u2019s Journey you have to navigate through the darkness with your light box avatar. You will find many ways to solve puzzles and many ways to die in the process, as the only light that will guide you will be the one emanated by the avatar.\nIf you could see an entire level of the game at once, it would turn out to be a basic platformer. This way however, you have to pay attention to details as you glimpse them. Will you jump on a ledge or fall to a bottomless pit in the process? Pay attention!\nYour goal through each level is to reach the light exit marker, your secondary light source of every level. You have 76 levels to explore and each has its own labyrinth and tricky puzzles.\nEmber\u2019s Journey is not free, but once you pay for it you will never have to pay for anything else as you get no in-app purchase pop-ups. Take a look at it below:\nEmber's Journey\nDeveloper: EncovApps\nPosted byAnna 2015-09-01 Posted inApps, NewsTags: android, basic platformer, darkness, Ember's Journey, game, games, google play, light, new games, platformer",

The network uses leased fiber-optic cables from both Internet2 and Century Link to connect three POP (Point of Presence) sites: Tucson, Flagstaff and Phoenix. The network is designed to be highly resilient with redundant hardware and geographically diverse paths as well as carrier diversity.\nRecent investments have increased the speed of the Sun Corridor Network\u2019s bandwidth to an exciting 100 Gbps with the upgrade of nodes in Phoenix and Tucson. These nodes connect to Internet2\u2019s Innovation Platform, a combination of new technologies and services that provide leading edge, end-to-end architecture, and a unique set of capabilities at the national, regional, and campus level to create an environment for innovation in research and education.\nAt 100 Gbps, this speed has the potential to create many opportunities for Arizona. For example:\ndata equivalent to 80 million file cabinets filled with text that can be transferred daily\nevery one of Arizona's approximately 1 million enrolled K-12 students could download an eBook simultaneously in just over two minutes\n300,000 X-rays can be transmitted in just one minute\n8.5 million electronic medical records can be transmitted in one minute\nsmartphone data can be sent at 50,000 time faster than current average speed",

        "raw_content": "Nigeria renews search for broadband investors at global summit\nBy Adeyemi Adepetun, Busan, South Korea\nMinister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu\nNigeria\u2019s desire to meet and surpass next year\u2019s 30 per cent broadband penetration target will be one of the reasons for participating in the 2017 International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Telecoms conference in Busan, South Korea.\nThe yearly event kicked off today in Busan, 325 kilometers away from Seoul, South Korea and 520 kilometers away from President Kim Jong-Un\u2019s Pyongyang, North Korea.\nThe 2017 conference, which has its theme as \u2018Digital Transformation, Global Opportunity,\u2019 is a unique international platform for influential figures from government and industry to connect with tech SMEs and entrepreneurs, to exhibit and explore partnership solutions, investment opportunities, shared ideas and best practices.\nOrganised since 1971 by ITU, the United Nations specialised agency for ICTs, the conference and exhibition also serve as a vehicle for countries, organisations and individuals to woo investors to their economies.\nAs such, Nigeria, whose delegation is led by the Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu, through the \u2018Nigeria Day\u2019, an investment session which comes up tomorrow at the Nigerian Pavilion, will unveil the benefit of investing in the country to participants put at about 10,000 from across the globe.\nNigeria\u2019s broadband penetration currently wobbles at 21 per cent. A World Bank study on the impact of broadband penetration revealed positive growth on economies. It disclosed that from 0.25 to 1.38 per cent in broadband penetration, there is always a 10 per cent addition to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP).\nThe broadband penetration drive of Nigeria has been dwarfed by myriads of challenges, including getting the needed investments, financial constraints, economic lull, lack of infrastructure as exhibited by poor last mile connectivity and perceived over-regulation of the sector.\nThe NCC\u2019s Executive Vice Chairman, Prof. Umar Danbatta, noted that the commission would use the conference to woo investors to invest in Nigeria\u2019s broadband plan. He noted that wooing investors into the broadband sector as enshrined in the country\u2019s Five-Year National Broadband Plan (2013 to 2018) requires greater effort, which the ITU platform presents.\nAssuring investors, NCC\u2019s Director of Public Affairs, Tony Ojobo, said Nigeria\u2019s robust telecommunications regulatory environment guarantees returns on investment, and the investors\u2019 renewed confidence in the fast growing sector would form part of the country\u2019s narrative at the ITU Telecom World.\nAccording to him, there are over 150 million active subscribers now, Internet connections are over 90 million and teledensity is well over 100 per cent.\n\u201cThere is over $80 billion invested in the sector so far with over 70 per cent of it as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). The investors have never known a better yesterday. So as Nigeria\u2019s delegation berths in Busan, South Korea, the narrative will be endearing as the country beckons on more investors especially in broadband Internet.\u201d\nITU Secretary-General, Houlin Zhao, stressed the need for countries to bridge the digital gap.\nSpeakers from Nigeria at the forum include Shittu; former Minister of Communications Technology, Dr. Omobola Johnson; Danbatta; Executive Secretary, Nigeria Investment Promotion Commission, Yewande Sadiku; Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Co-Creation Hub Nigeria, Bosun Tijani; Director-General, National Information and Technology Development Agency, Dr. Isa Ibrahim Pantami, among others.\nAdebayo ShittuIsa Ibrahim PantamiNational BroadbandNCCNITDAOmobola JohnsonUmar Danbatta",

        "raw_content": "Thursday 28th September 2017 @ 11:04 by Adam Higgins\nDukinfield Longdendale News\nA woman from Dukinfield has spoken of her pride in being recognised by British Gas as the company\u2019s 20,000th Dementia Friend.\nRachel Gregory is one of more than 20,000 people who work for the national energy supplier who have received dementia awareness sessions to help support customers living with the condition.\nThe 24-year-old is particularly passionate about being a Dementia Friend as she has first-hand experience of the impact dementia can have on a family.\nHer own grandmother sadly passed away in 2009, after living with dementia for five years, during which Rachel also helped to care for her.\nRachel, who works in customer service at the British Gas contact centre in Hattersley, helps customers who need extra support, including those living with dementia, with a range of services including help with managing energy bills.\nSince becoming a Dementia Friend, Rachel has found that it is easier for help to provide assistance to customers.\n\u201cWhen you\u2019re a Dementia Friend, you become aware of all the little things that you can do to help people,\u201d she said.\n\u201cI wish I\u2019d known what I know now when my grandmother was alive. It would have made things easier at times to understand how she was feeling.\n\u201cI\u2019m here to help offer customers reassurance that things are okay, when they call us, and that someone\u2019s there to listen to them and to help. I get a real sense of satisfaction leaving work at the end of the day knowing that I\u2019ve made the slightest difference to someone.\u201d\nRachel also explained how dementia can impact a whole family, not just a customer.\n\u201cI recently supported a family whose mum was living with dementia,\u201d she added. \u201cBalancing their finances while paying for carers was proving a real struggle, but I was able to put in place a payment plan that worked for them. That was one way we could help straight away.\n\u201cI also found a local Alzheimer\u2019s Society drop in session that the mum could attend and I still regularly talk to her daughter. She was so grateful for the support \u2013 it\u2019s made a big difference to all the family.\u201d\nFriendly face: Rachel Gregory, from Dukinfield, is the 20,000th Dementia Friend for British Gas who has experienced first-hand the challenges of dementia\nRachel hopes that more people will be more aware that there\u2019s help on hand.\nShe said: \u201cHaving first-hand experience at work and at home of dementia, I want to see greater awareness raised around the condition. I\u2019d encourage any customer of a loved one of a customer living with dementia to contact us to find out how we can help.\u201d\nBritish Gas is also working with the Alzheimer\u2019s Society to encourage families, friends and carers of customers living with dementia to contact their energy company if they are concerned about the energy account of their loved ones this winter.\nBritish Gas, which serves 10 million homes, estimates that around 100,000 customers are living alone in their homes with dementia. This equates to one in every 100 households the company serves. However, they believe many more customers are also supporting loved ones living with the condition.\nIn Greater Manchester, more than 1,000 people working at three British Gas sites are now Dementia Friends. This includes around 400 employees at British Gas contact centres at Hattersley and at Talbot Road and a further 600 people at Stockport.\nThe Dementia Friends programme helps staff to understand the challenges people with dementia may face \u2013 whether customers or their own friends and family \u2013 and how they can better support them.\nMother allegedly abducts son after they fail to return from Spanish holiday\nWhy it\u2019s Jolly Hatters to Denton\u2019s big clean.\nBREAKING: Belle Vue have promotion licence revoked\nCurzon Ashton to host Tour of Tameside open evening\nWhy Portland Basin continues to be a hit with visitors\nGlossop North End suffer another heavy defeat",

        "raw_content": "Has Djokovic Hit 'The Wall'?\nNovak Djokovic has lost just once on hardcourt to David Ferrer. Image courtesy of heraldsun.com.au/AP\nThere is a reason David Ferrer is known as \u2018The Wall\u2019. Not only is he the Energizer bunny of the ATP Tour, with his indefatigable ability to chase down balls he has no right to get, he is also one of the most mentally strong players going around. Three times on Tuesday compatriot Nicolas Almagro was serving for their quarter-final match, and all three times Ferrer survived, eventually going on to win in five sets . It says plenty about Almagro\u2019s well-known mental fragility, but Ferrer has made a career out of being a dogged fighter who rarely gives up cheap points.\nThe fourth seed described the win as a \u201cmiracle\u201d, but he might need some further divine intervention to overcome his next opponent. There were questions about whether Novak Djokovic could go all the way in the first Grand Slam of the year after his exhausting five-setter against Stanislas Wawrinka that finished 12-10 in the final set, but he answered them in the best way possible with a dominating four-set triumph over in-form Czech Tomas Berdych.\nFerrer\u2019s one potential advantage over Djokovic could have been his match fitness, but given the outcomes of their respective quarter-finals, the Serbian appears to be in better physical shape going in their fifth meeting in Slam. Djokovic has won all four battles between the pair in majors, easily accounting for the Ferrer twice each at Melbourne Park and Flushing Meadows.\nTo go a step further, Djokovic\u2019s record against the Spaniard on hardcourt is nothing short of dominant. He has won 10 of their 11 matches on the surface, and only once has he dropped a set in those victories, and that was when he won 2-6 6-1 6-4 6-2 in last year\u2019s US Open semi. Ferrer\u2019s lone victory on hardcourt came at the end of season event in London in 2011 when he smoked the top seed 6-3 6-1, but Djokovic\u2019s body was well and truly in need of a rest throughout that round robin as he also lost in three to Tipsarevic and was pushed to the limit by Berdych.\nClick here to bet on ATP Australian Open matches",

        "raw_content": "The Danger In Not Seeing The Danger\nThis is the third in a blog series about pastor Robert\u2019s trip to Togo, Africa. You can read the first here and the second here.\nC.S. Lewis warned of a day when the naturalistic worldview would become so pervasive that whole societies would actually reject any and all spiritual realities. He predicted that scientism would overtake the world such that the only accepted knowledge would be testable knowledge.\nWe in the developed world of the 21st century now live within Lewis\u2019 warning. By far the predominant view of our educational institutions denies any realities outside physical realities, and the neo-atheism movement is progressively growing and influencing the rising generation. Even the religious of our society tend to adopt a religion void of spiritual realities. Half of those who identify themselves as Christians in America don\u2019t believe in Satan, demons, angels, or even the Holy Spirit. And those of us who do believe in such things are marginalized as na\u00efve at best and crazy at worst. And then slowly we begin to wonder if indeed we are crazy for believing all this.\nWell if you are having your doubts about the existence of a spiritual realm, just fly to Togo (or any culture untouched by modernity\u2019s secularism) and you will see just how outlandish the skepticism of the west truly is. It is an eye-opening experience to be immersed in a culture where nobody, and I mean nobody, has the audacity to deny the spiritual. The spiritual realm is as real to them as the physical, and the two are constantly intersecting with one another. Whether it be demon possessions or voodoo witchery (the picture above is a voodoo temple where they perform sacrifices); these are as normal to them as Starbucks coffee is to us.\nThe missionary we partner with, Macklann Basse, is in the middle of all this spiritual warfare and part of his weekly routine is to do battle against the evil spiritual forces. We would sit with him in amazement as he recounted his numerous encounters with spiritual darkness, and to honest with you, I found myself strangely encouraged, even emboldened.\nTwo things were clear: there really is a spiritual realm, and Jesus is in charge of it. Being in a culture with such overt spiritual happenings gave me a glimpse of an unbridled Jesus. This was not the domesticated Jesus of our Sunday school classes; this was the Jesus that causes the principalities of darkness to cower in fear. And because of this, Christians were remarkably confident in the midst of the warfare.\nThere was one particular voodoo priestess that everyone feared. In fact, Macklann said that he knew people who had died after being cursed by her. While we were there, Macklann got a phone call that she was stirring up trouble, and he told me he was going to have to intervene. I asked him what exactly he was going to do? He said, \u201cI\u2019m going to go see her and tell her stop her.\u201d I asked him if he was afraid, and he said very plainly, \u201cShe can\u2019t touch me, Robert. There is nothing she can do. I belong to Jesus.\u201d\nThat is the type of brazen confidence I saw again and again, which makes one conversation I had with Macklann particularly disturbing. He told me that the most difficult place he has ever been is America. He said it\u2019s scary how oppressed and blind our culture is, and that he could literally feel his soul withering up and his faith weakening during his time in the states. Satan and the hosts of evil have a unique stronghold on the developed world, and the fact that that statement sounds ridiculous to you testifies to the stronghold.\nIn his brilliant work Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis imagines demons plotting a strategy where they become wholly implausible to modern man, and I think that is happening all around us. What if the fact that the spiritual realm is no longer within the realm of possibility is, ironically, the greatest spiritual oppression this world has ever known. As French poet Charles Baudelaire said and Keyser Soze from The Usual Suspects made famous, \u201cThe greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world that he did not exist.\u201d\nMake no mistake about it, Satan is real and is working very hard to convince the modern world that he is not real. The most dangerous satanic activity is that you will be labeled an ignorant, antiquated, fool to believe in satanic activity. Covert though it may be, we are indeed living in the heat of a dangerous spiritual battle, and most dangerous of all is that most don\u2019t even realize it.\nTo hear a man who fearlessly wages war against demonic possessions and voodoo priests confess to me that he is scared of my country was a wake up call. I\u2019m in a battle. TCPC is in a battle. And we need to sober up and live our days acknowledging that reality. The good news is that when we do, we will see Jesus for the warrior He is. The One who rules the spiritual realm is our Defender; we just need to recognize that we actually need to be defended.\nThe truth is, we do. Satanic work is indeed all around us, and woe to those who do not recognize it There is grave danger in not seeing the danger.\nSo wake up and cling to Jesus; you\u2019re going to need Him.\nKylie Rennekamp November 5, 2013\nKentucky Fans and Infant Baptism: An Analogy\nKylie Rennekamp November 12, 2013\nGet Rich and Give It Away\nKylie Rennekamp October 17, 2013",

        "raw_content": "You Can Now Visit The World\u2019s Largest Model Railroad In Street View\nOver the years, Google has taken Street View to a number of exotic places. Today, it\u2019s stepping things down by launching a set of Street View images for the world\u2019s largest model railway, the Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg, Germany.\nMiniatur Wunderland isn\u2019t your average model railway exhibit. We\u2019re talking 13,000 kilometers of track, almost a thousand trains, 335,000 lights, and more than 200,000 little figurines spread across a layout that\u2019s now takes up almost 14,000 square feet. Besides trains, there are also hundreds of little cars that drive around the various cities. It\u2019s Hamburg\u2019s most visited tourist attraction.\nThe layout features everything from your typical German, Austrian and Swiss landscapes to miniature versions of Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Norwegian fjords, and a DJ Bobo concert (yep \u2014 somebody called DJ Bobo is a thing in Germany, but then, so is David Hasselhoff\u2019s Christmas album). There\u2019s even a working airport.\nGoogle worked with Ubilabs to build a very small version of its Street View cameras to create these images. Ubilabs says the project took about two months of preparation and experiments before heading to Hamburg, as well as 600 hours of work (mostly at night) on location. Having a camera this small will likely allow Google to go into other, small spaces as well.

        "raw_content": "Home News The Giants That Built the Pyramid of Giza\nI was recently asked whether the Giants who helped to build the pyramid of Giza has the same DNA as human beings. What is the arrangement of the double helix? From the questions it became clear that the concept of the forces of animism that take on forms is yet to sit well with many people. But the issue of DNA I will handle in a separate article.\nAnyone who has read my articles on The Pyramid of Giza and The Gods of Our Ancestors will have a better appreciation of what I am about to explain. And it is important to know that these thoughts are not mine, and that they derive from my understanding of the work In The Light Of Truth The Grail Message, a book written by a German author, Oscar Ernst Bernhardt who wrote under the pen name, Abd-ru-shin.\nThe giants we meet in mythology actually existed, and are still in existence today. It is only necessary to add that myths are the realities that we lost in the intellectual closet we locked ourselves in. Thus when we are told of an Atlas that stood on mount Atlas and held the sky, we are actually dealing with a depiction of the reality of a giant called Atlas, who resides on mount Atlas, and gave its name to the mountain.In fact, many mountains have some of these giants inhabiting them.\nAnother species of giants are responsible for hurricanes. Their strides, race and activities result in destructive movement of air. They uproot trees and carry water to flood planes.\nA different species cause earthquakes and volcanoes. They work in coordinated way, such that those that form volcanoes serve as preparers for major earthquakes and earth sinking, as they did in the sinking of Atlantis. I explained this in the article, The Sinking of Atlantis. They are still the same that will be responsible for the sinking of parts of Japan and much of Europe, which will be counter balanced by the rise of Atlantis at the center of the Atlantic Ocean.\nThey are the ones who helped the Incas to build the temple that was one of the most expensive in the world, since many parts of the temple and artifacts in it are in solid gold. They were also the ones who sank it under water. Today, its memories are in mythology as a mysterious temple at the bottom of a lake which, for current security reasons, I may not name. The giants will one day raise the temple when a universal earthquake hits the earth, Atlantis rises, and many other political upheavals follow. Then, a new teaching will gain power with the force of a hurricane.\nThe time is near when all men\u2019s heart will be gripped with fear, when the great wonder appears in heaven.\nPrevious article5 Convincing Facts Why A Business Needs An Asset Management Module in ERP\nNext articleBenefits and Challenges of Data Center Consolidation",

        "title": "\u201cOur Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor\u201d",
        "raw_content": "The signers of the Declaration of Independence knew they were taking a great personal risk when they signed a document pledging \u201cOur Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor\u201d to declare independence from England. They knew they were putting their very lives at risk and they are purported to have said to each other, \u201cWe must all hang together on this or we will all hang separately.\u201d\nWhether that is an apocryphal or real doesn\u2019t matter. It or something similar must have been on their minds. Great courage was necessary to take on a dispute with their home country which at the time had the most powerful army on earth. They knew very well they what they were risking, nothing less than \u201cOur Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor.\u201d\nWhy did they do it? Aside from the enumerated complaints against King George III it was to found a new nation, conceived in liberty.\nMatthew Spalding of Hillsdale College, writing at the Washington Examiner today:\nThe document\u2019s famous second paragraph is a powerful synthesis of American constitutional and republican government theories. The right to liberty of all men stems from the natural equality of men, which means none are naturally superior (and deserve to rule) or inferior (and deserve to be ruled). Because men are endowed with these rights, the rights are unalienable, which means that they cannot be given up or taken away. And because individuals equally possess these rights, governments derive their just powers from the consent of those governed. The purpose of government is to secure these fundamental rights and, although prudence tells us that governments should not be changed for trivial reasons, the people retain the right to alter or abolish government when it becomes destructive of these ends.\nOne charge that Jefferson had included, but Congress removed, was that the king had \u201cwaged cruel war against human nature\u201d by introducing slavery and allowing the slave trade into the American colonies. A few delegates were unwilling to acknowledge that slavery violated the \u201cmost sacred rights of life and liberty,\u201d and the passage was dropped for the sake of unanimity. Thus was foreshadowed the central debate of the American Civil War, which Abraham Lincoln saw as a test to determine whether a nation \u201cconceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal\u201d could long endure.\nSlavery had been a near universal world institution but it was Eighteenth Century Enlightenment that allowed men to see it as a \u201ccruel war against human nature.\u201d They had all just agreed that liberty and unalienable rights bestowed upon man by his creator was at the heart of human nature. Nevertheless, a great many people were deriving their sustenance on the backs of slaves. Even those who might have acknowledged its horrors were determined never to give it up and seek their fortunes by other means.\nYes, it would have been wonderful if slavery had been abolished then and there, on July 4, 1776. But as we now know with the greatest certainty, it was going to take a brutal civil war that would see 650,000 Americans give their lives in the struggle to finally have it done and over with. That was to be 89 years in the future.\nJefferson, himself a slave owner, and others did see that there was a deep conflict between the Declaration\u2019s proclamation of freedom and the existence of Negro slavery. They did continue the fight to end it, against powerful forces.\nArticle One, section 9 of the Constitution provides:\nThis section evinces the fact that slavery was was a contentious issue 21 years after the Declaration of Independence. There were several at the Constitutional Convention that would have been willing to abolish slavery, but the Southern colonies would never have ratified it. Some sort of compromise had to be worked out in order to get anything about slavery accomplished. Abolition of the slave trade was the compromise, but only after twenty years. In 1808 the 20 years was up and Congress immediately passed the 1808 law prohibiting the importation of any additional slaves.\nWhy Do Democrats Hate America?\n\u2026you have to wonder about the future of a party, most of whose members don\u2019t like the country they are trying to take over. Maybe when they have turned the U.S. into Venezuela or Cuba they will be proud to be Americans. Let\u2019s hope they don\u2019t get that opportunity.\nWell, we did free their slaves. We did oppose their Jim Crow laws. We did force them to integrate schools and serve blacks at the lunch counter. Well, the Democrats who hated us for that are mostly dead now. The current hatred has more to do with the brain washing of children in public schools. We need to do something about that.\n\u2190 Thanks to the Delaware General Assembly For Adjourning its 2018 Session Without Passing New Gun Control Laws\nThese are the people we\u2019ve been waiting for\u2026the #Walkaways \u2192",

        "title": "US-North Korea at an impasse | The ASEAN Post",
        "raw_content": "US-North Korea at an impasse\nThis undated picture released from North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on 21 August, 2018 shows North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un (C) visiting the Myohyangsan Medical Appliances Factory in Myohyangsan. (KCNA via KNS / AFP Photo)\nWhen the historic summit between the United States (US) and the Democratic People\u2019s Republic of Korea (DPRK) took place in Singapore earlier this year, many believed the impossible could finally be achieved \u2013 peace between the two Koreas and a nuclear free Korean peninsula. However, recent events have revealed that such hopes may still be a pipe dream.\nAt the end of August, one week before US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was scheduled to head to Pyongyang for the fourth round of nuclear talks, President Donald Trump abruptly cancelled the visit.\n\u201cI have asked Secretary of State Mike Pompeo not to go to North Korea, at this time, because I feel we are not making sufficient progress with respect to the denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula,\u201d Trump tweeted.\nFor people who have been following the nuclear talks closely, this may not come as a surprise. Ever since the Singapore Summit in June, the subsequent negotiations between the US and the DPRK have not been smooth. For example, in the first round of talks in Pyongyang, the DPRK\u2019s Foreign Ministry released a statement characterising the US\u2019 proposals as \"unilateral and robber-like denuclearization demands.\u201d The statement also claimed that they \"go against the spirit of the North-US summit meeting.\" Meanwhile, the US government argued that the DPRK is not doing its part in keeping with its promise of denuclearisation.\nOptimism fading\nWith the cancellation of the scheduled nuclear talks, it seems that the promise of the declaration made at the Singapore Summit is now starting to fade.\nThe current impasse could actually be rooted in what was agreed upon at the Singapore Summit. Some \u2013 including Trump \u2013 saw the declaration made at the summit as a deal, but in reality it was merely a declaration which set out principles to guide the negotiation process. The declaration outlined four basic goals \u2013 renewed US-DPRK relations, the establishment of a \u201cpeace regime\u201d on the peninsula, complete denuclearisation and the recovery of prisoners of wars.\nTrump also added that there were other agreements made that were not included in the declaration. However, with how vague things were left and worded, the difference in interpretation has led to the situation the two countries are currently in.\nJoseph Yun, a senior adviser to the Asia Group and the US Institute of Peace opined in the Washington Post that both, Kim Jong Un and Trump have a fundamentally different understanding of what was agreed in Singapore. For the Trump administration, the process of denuclearisation is simple \u2013 completely denuclearise and lifting of sanctions, the possibility of a peace deal and so on will follow suit. While the North Koreans feel that it should be done in tandem, that they will slowly denuclearise and the US will also follow through on its promises step-by-step.\nThere are also reports in the mainstream US press that Trump had promised North Korea that he would officially end the Korean War and sign a peace declaration. Despite the Korean War ending in 1953, the end of the war has never been officially declared. This is one of the major reasons why North Korea arms itself with nuclear weapons, to prevent military aggression from the US.\nAccording to US media, DPRK officials have sent a strongly worded letter to Pompeo, saying that denuclearisation could not proceed because \u201cthe US is still not ready to meet (North Korean) expectations in terms of taking a step forward to sign a peace treaty.\"\nEssentially, the stalling of talks could boil down to a failure of diplomacy in Singapore. Most of the blame can be levelled against Trump and his team. Firstly, for its failure to secure an official nuclear and missile test moratorium from the DPRK. Secondly, for not being clear in its terms for denuclearisation. The DPRK has always remained intransigent when it comes to denuclearisation \u2013 unless security and peace is guaranteed, it would not completely denuclearise. So, the onus is on the US to make sure its terms are clear and airtight. In addition to that, abruptly cancelling nuclear talks, does not help.\nTrump\u2019s usual aggression will not help when it comes to seeking peace in the Korean peninsula. For any actual progress to be made since the Singapore Summit, Trump must learn the delicate dance of diplomacy.\nTrump, Kim summit ends with signing of joint declaration\nUS-North Korea Summit,",

        "raw_content": "The Truce \u2013 Primo Levi\nI finished part 2 of this book yesterday. The first part was named If this is a Man.\nLevi has survived Auschwitz, but now the rest of his journey stands before him. He has to make his way home to Italy and as a surviving prisoner, he can travel with the help of local authorities. In this case, that means whoever is in military charge of the soil he finds his feet on. In post-war Europe, this is a tiresome task which includes many detours due to the destructions of the war. Levi suffers through more hunger and pain, but at the end of the journey lies Italy, his homeland.\nI found this book to be slower than the other one even though I have never read an account from a Holocaust survivor that includes a journey through post-war Europe. I think I found it to be slower because you at several points during the story wonder if Levi is ever going to arrive home. For example, for several months he is at a camp named Katowice in Poland where the Russians are in command. He makes several friends in this camp and many strange things happen. In this setting of Katowice Levi describes ways of acquiring food, doctor services, and other privileges. Some of the situations he describes seem utterly absurd to me, but I\u2019ve never lived in early post-war Europe. This is one of the reasons I like the book, these strange situations he describes from his daily life. Since he purely tells the story from his point of view with his own experiences, this makes for a interesting historical perspective. At the same time, I feel that these are the situations that make the book slower. I knew when I started to read this book, that it wasn\u2019t going to be full of action but at the same time, there is a limit to how slow a book can be, even though it is a true account of events before I fall asleep or doze off. Looking at The Truce through my historical glasses I find myself much more enlightened on the topic of Holocaust survivors and their journey home after the liberation of Auschwitz. Levi\u2019s story is only one of many, but a lot of people were in the same shoes with similar destinies, and he presents a clear and coherent representation of his journey.\nOn this note, I think I\u2019ll end with a quote from the end of the book for us all to think about. It is just as relevant today as it was then; Monsters exist, but they are too few in number to be truly dangerous. More dangerous are the common men, the functionaries ready to believe and act without asking questions.\nTheme: Post-war Europe, survival, journey\nForrige innlegg Turtles all the way down \u2013 John Green\nNeste innlegg The Sociological Imagination \u2013 C.

        "raw_content": "Lawmakers to White House: Get Tough With Beijing Over South China Sea\nBY DAN DE LUCE/ APRIL 27, 2016 / April 27, 2016\nDismayed at China\u2019s tactics in the South China Sea, U.S. senators from both parties on Wednesday demanded the White House show more resolve with Beijing and ratchet up U.S. naval patrols near disputed islands in the strategic waterway.\nWith President Barack Obama due to travel to Vietnam next month, four senators introduced legislation that calls for bolstering security assistance to allies in Southeast Asia and expanding U.S. military operations meant to uphold the right of freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.\n\u201cFor too long as China continues its aggressive and expansive policies, the United States has played the role of observer, or perhaps protester, but not yet actor,\u201d Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) said in a statement announcing the bill.\nDuring the past two years, China has aggressively moved to expand its territorial claims in the South China Sea, a hugely important waterway rich in resources and a highway for trillions of dollars in trade. Chinese tactics have included coercion of other states, such as Vietnam and the Philippines, as well as the installation of advanced military hardware on disputed reefs and atolls hundreds of miles from the Chinese coast.\nThe Obama administration has consistently called for China to respect international law and forswear coercion, but to little avail. Last fall, Chinese president Xi Jinping promised in a visit to Washington to halt so-called militarization of the region, but instead has only ramped up the dispatch of advanced radars, air defense systems, and even military aircraft to islands claimed by neighboring states.\nThe broader U.S.-China relationship, which requires cooperation on such issues as the global economy and North Korea, makes it difficult for Washington to push back too hard on Beijing\u2019s moves in the region \u2014 but that tread-softly approach is wearing thin with lawmakers.\nAt a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing Wednesday featuring Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken, some lawmakers blasted the administration\u2019s policies on the South China Sea as weak and lackluster.

        "title": "China shoots itself in the foot with divide and rule tactics in Asean \u2013 The C.O.R.E. Initiative",
        "raw_content": "China shoots itself in the foot with divide and rule tactics in Asean\nby TANG SIEW MUN / June 17, 2016 / TodayOnline\nRelations between the Association of South-east Asian Nations (Asean) and China suffered yet another blow during the Special Asean-China Foreign Ministers\u2019 Meeting that ended in Kunming, China, on Tuesday.\nFrom Asean\u2019s standpoint, the meeting was intended to help repair its fraying relationship with China due to developments in the South China Sea. In fact, the proposal for the meeting was initially met with scepticism within Asean for fear that China will use the meeting as a public relations exercise to serve Beijing\u2019s ends. This concern turned out not to be unfounded as China attempted to have the Asean foreign ministers endorse a 10-point consensus in Kunming.\nChina had steadfastly maintained that the South China Sea issue should be kept off the Asean-China table, maintaining that the territorial disputes should be resolved through bilateral talks. Beijing\u2019s stance is that the issue, which pits China against four Asean member states in Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam, should not spill over to influence ties between both sides.\nThis is wishful thinking and more than anything amplifies Beijing\u2019s growing disconnect with regional sentiments and Asean\u2019s growing unease with China\u2019s use of its political, economic and military power.\nIt is telling that a statement released on the meeting by China\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs focused exclusively on the upcoming Asean-China Commemorative Summit. The South China Sea did not get a single mention, even though this was the primary subject of discussions between the ministers. On the other hand, 55 per cent, or 512 out of 929, of the words contained in the retracted Asean Foreign Ministers\u2019 statement was on the South China Sea.\nThe fact that the statement was discussed and initially agreed upon by Asean demonstrates the possibility of the pact achieving unanimity on the South China Sea issue without undue external interference. Equally important, the collective effort undermines China\u2019s allegations that some Asean countries have taken on an anti-China bent, as seen from their forthright views and assessments on the issue.\nIn the midst of this drama, the meeting will long be remembered for the retraction of the statement. Unusually, the statement was circulated to the media by Malaysia. This oddity became more puzzling when a Malaysian foreign ministry spokesperson retracted the statement with an announcement that there were \u201curgent amendments to be made\u201d.\nThis unusual turn of events immediately raises the question of Malaysia\u2019s involvement in the debacle and the reasons for the retraction.\nPerhaps a more insidious development pertains to reports of Laos and Cambodia withdrawing their support for the statement at the eleventh hour. This is reminiscent of the fiasco in Phnom Penh in 2012, when Asean foreign ministers failed to issue a joint communique for the first time in its 45-year history. At that point, China had reportedly pressed Cambodia to keep the South China Sea topic from finding its way into the statement.\nHistory repeated itself in Kunming, but will China\u2019s long hand show itself again at the Asean Foreign Ministers Meeting next month? At this point, China has warned Asean not to cross the \u201cred line\u201d in issuing a joint statement on the impending Permanent Court of Arbitration\u2019s (PCA) ruling on the South China Sea. What effect these warnings have on Asean remains to be seen, but the evidence presented in Kunming points to Beijing having a winning hand.\nQuite frankly, China\u2019s ability to muzzle Asean is disturbing.\nIt undermines Asean centrality and prevents the grouping from having meaningful discussions on strategic issues. By stage-managing the organisation through allies such as Laos and Cambodia, China robs Asean of its utility as a platform for intra and inter-regional cooperation. China\u2019s purported hold on these two Asean members gives Beijing an indirect but effective veto over positions anathema to its interest.

        "raw_content": "Posted by Sarah Waites on February 12, 2019 January 4, 2019\nThe Raven Tower by Ann Leckie. \u2605\u2605\u2605\u26051/2\nThe Raven Tower is bound to be one of the most phenomenal fantasy novels of 2019. If you\u2019re not familiar with Ann Leckie\u2019s work, her science fiction series (starting with Ancillary Justice) swept the award season when it debuted. WIth The Raven Tower, she turns her hand to fantasy, and the result is wonderful. I feel like this book would appeal to fans of N.K. Jemisin\u2026 but if you\u2019ve read Jemisin, you\u2019ve likely already read Leckie! Regardless, this is a novel you need to pick up.\nGods interfere directly in the lives of humans, making agreements with other gods and protecting their favored peoples. For instance, the Raven god has protected the kingdom of Iraden for centuries, choosing the leader, the Raven\u2019s Lease, who will occupy the most powerful position in the kingdom\u2026 in return for sacrificing their life to the Raven at the end of their tenure. Eolo, farmer turned soldier, accompanies the Raven\u2019s Lease\u2019s heir, Mawat, home to take over his father\u2019s role. But when they arrive at the capital city of Vastai, they find that Mawat\u2019s uncle has already stepped into the role of the Raven\u2019s Lease and that Mawat\u2019s father is nowhere to be found. What happened to Mawat\u2019s father? Did he run from the sacrifice, as Mawat\u2019s Uncle claims? And if he\u2019s still alive, then what retribution will the Raven require? And why did the Raven allow this to happen anyway? With growing skirmishes along the border and an unprecedented crisis of succession, Iraden is in peril.\nI adore the narrative voice of The Raven Tower. The very beginning opens in the second person, addressed to Eolo. But it\u2019s clear that someone specific is speaking, and right away you can guess that the narrator is a god. Segments of the book are told in the first person, recounting the narrator\u2019s history which stretches back to before life on land. Any book with two such different narrative strands runs a risk of having one be more compelling than the other, but I never found myself rushing to get through either section. Both are compelling in their own right, and the mystery of how they connect (and the narrator\u2019s identity) drives the story forward. Basically, this is the best use of second person that I\u2019ve encountered since N.K. Jemisin\u2019s The Fifth Season.\nThe world building is awesome, of course. In this world, gods are powerful but not limitless. Whatever a god says is true \u2014 and if it wasn\u2019t true before the god said it, the god\u2019s own power goes into making it true. If a god says something that requires too much power to make true, then the god dies. So our narrator speaks very carefully throughout the story, telling us things like, \u201cthis is something I once heard\u201d or saying things such as \u201cEolo probably felt this.\u201d It means that we are never fully inside Eolo\u2019s head, but you grow so close to him that it\u2019s easy to forget we\u2019re getting an outside perspective!\nEolo reminds me a bit of Cazaril in Lois McMaster Bujold\u2019s The Curse of Chalion \u2014 an outsider of low birth who nonetheless becomes wrapped up in the affairs of the court. He\u2019s smart and cautious, and there\u2019s a reason why he\u2019s risen to become Mawat\u2019s righthand man. Also, he\u2019s transmasculine and bisexual/pansexual, usually attracted more to women than men. At the time of writing this (early January, I do these reviews in advance), I haven\u2019t yet seen any reviews from trans readers, but I don\u2019t recall Eolo ever being misgendered.\nThe Raven Tower is one of those books where I\u2019m afraid to say too much least I give the game away! Just know that I adore this book and that I\u2019m sure it will get some nods come award season.\n4 starsARCepic fantasyfantasyLGBTQIAmale leadother world\nPrevious Post Review of The Bitterwood Bible and Other Recountings by Angela Slatter\nNext Post Waiting on Wednesday: Escaping Exodus\nI was hoping to see a good review of this book soon, so I\u2019d know whether or not to check it out at the library. I\u2019m a huge fan of Leckie\u2019s Ancillary series, which for me, was some of the boldest, most intriguing Science Fiction I\u2019d read in a long time, and I say that as a long time SciFi fan, (and a fan of Peter Watts!)\nI\u2019d say that \u201cboldest, most intriguing\u201d is the approach The Raven Tower takes to epic fantasy. \ud83d\ude42\nCamille P says:\nWhen Sarah says it has awesome world building, I know I need to read the book.\nGlad to hear you enjoyed this. The second person put me off a bit, so I temporarily set it aside mainly because I recently read another book where I had issues with the second person and felt I could give this one a more fair shot if I spaced them out a bit\nFair enough. Second person can be tough.\nI\u2019m looking forward to this so much!\nOh boy! I haven\u2019t read anything by Ann Leckie yet because her SF books sounded a scootch daunting to me, but I have been wanting hop aboard the Ann Leckie hype train. I think The Raven Tower will be how I do it at last! It sounds good! I love narrative experimentation!\nI think you\u2019ll love The Raven Tower!",

        "raw_content": "Richard M. Gamble. In Search of the City on a Hill: The Making and Unmaking of an American Myth.\nThe phrase \u201ccity on a hill\u201d has become inextricably tied to Ronald Reagan. Some Americans may even think that Reagan, rather than Jesus, coined it. Reagan routinely spoke of America as that \u201cshining\u201d city (a descriptor Reagan added), and nowhere more directly than in his 1989 farewell address. \u201cI\u2019ve spoken of the shining city all my political life,\u201d Reagan said. \u201cIn my mind, it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind swept, God blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace.\u201d This image, which in American history traces back to colonial Massachusetts governor John Winthrop and his \u201cModel of Christian Charity\u201d address, has become the ultimate symbol of American exceptionalism.\nSo it may come as something of a shock, as Richard Gamble\u2019s In Search of the City on a Hill demonstrates, just how recently Americans have latched onto Christ\u2019s (and Winthrop\u2019s) city on a hill image. Gamble\u2019s remarkable account shows that for more than 300 years after Winthrop\u2019s 1630 address, his city metaphor languished in nearly total obscurity. But in a feat of historical resurrection, one historian (Perry Miller) and two presidents (Reagan and John Kennedy) placed the image at the center of American national identity in the post-World War II era.\nChristians prior to Winthrop had generally interpreted Matthew 5\u2019s city on a hill as referring to believers, the church universal, or pastors. But sometime during the transatlantic journey to Massachusetts, the lawyer Winthrop wrote (and presumably delivered) \u201cA Model of Christian Charity,\u201d telling the Puritan colonists that they would \u201cbe as a city on a hill.\u201d \u201cThe eyes of all people are upon us,\u201d he said. \u201cIf we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause him to withdraw his present help from us, we shall be made a story and a by-word through the world,\u201d he warned them. The notion that New England (and perhaps America) had a special divine mission had begun to brew.\nIt took a long time for this idea to take Reagan\u2019s form, however. Some of Winthrop\u2019s successors, such as Jonathan Edwards, did speak of New Englanders as a city on a hill, because they were a specially covenanted \u201cprofessing community\u201d of believers. But \u201cA Model of Christian Charity\u201d itself remained unpublished until 1838. Its publication in the journal of the Massachusetts Historical Society elicited no fanfare whatsoever. The sermon was quoted and used in anthologies for the next century, but remarkably, quotations of Winthrop typically ended with the sentence before the city upon a hill reference.\nThe neglect of Winthrop\u2019s city ceased with the mid-20th century writings of Harvard\u2019s Perry Miller, the greatest historian of the American Puritans. He argued that the Puritans migrated to New England in order to build \u201cthe revolutionary city, where they could exhibit to Englishmen an England that would be as all England should be.\u201d John Kennedy, perhaps indirectly influenced by Miller\u2019s work, also began appropriating the metaphor, especially in his farewell speech to the General Court of Massachusetts in January 1961.\nBut no one used the city on a hill to greater effect than Reagan. By 1980 the metaphor had become a staple in his speeches. To Richard Gamble, Reagan\u2019s city on a hill was \u201can expression of modern political, economic, and religious freedom and a tool of American anti-communism\u201d (147). And, in spite of his talk of the \u201cGod-blessed\u201d city, Gamble says that in Reagan\u2019s hands the image became \u201cutterly secular,\u201d ripped out of its original biblical context (154). Reagan\u2019s metaphor became a \u201choly relic of American civil religion\u201d (155).\nNovel Nationalism\nThis is where many readers\u2014especially Reagan fans\u2014may balk at Gamble\u2019s analysis. Please understand, Gamble is no liberal: he\u2019s a professor at Hillsdale College in Michigan and contributing editor at The American Conservative; what bothers Gamble about Reagan\u2019s shining city on a hill is its very novelty. He thinks that it hijacked a traditional Christian metaphor in the service of American nationalism.\nTo Gamble, American civil religion competes with other religions, especially Christianity. When the apostles of civil religion steal a Christian metaphor and so thoroughly assimilate it that many Americans\u2014perhaps even devout Christians\u2014no longer recognize it as a teaching of Jesus, then real intellectual theft has occurred.\nGamble implies that such metaphors about America can foster a kind of messianic interventionism, leading American politicians to think they should make the world safe for democracy, and, where possible, build new democracies in America\u2019s image (think Iraq). To the extent that Reagan\u2019s city on a hill has bred American overconfidence, fueling interminable overseas conflicts, then the city on a hill is dangerous talk indeed.\nWhen it comes to the purported clash between American civil religion and Christianity, the actual damage seems less clear. Gamble says that because of Reagan, the city on a hill \u201cmetaphor has been destroyed for American Christians\u201d (182). Destroyed? Are pastors rendered incapable of accurately preaching on Matthew 5 because of Reagan? If your pastor tells you Jesus meant America when he spoke of this city, I would encourage you to leave your church as soon as possible.\nYet words from the English Bible are ubiquitous in the history of American rhetoric. The Bible\u2019s resonant phrases have enabled politicians from George Washington to Ronald Reagan to frame America\u2019s aspirations and challenges. When American political leaders appropriate biblical language, this doesn\u2019t by definition \u201cdestroy\u201d that language for the church.\nBut Gamble\u2019s warnings remain apt, as contemporary evangelicals are constantly confronted with claims of America\u2019s providential role in the world. Yes, Christians should be proud of America\u2019s signal contributions to world political history, especially our commitment to religious liberty, our conviction that all men are created equal, and our belief that human rights come from our common Creator. But Gamble is right to remind us that no Christian may properly see America as the divine city in the kingdom of God. A nation like ours may yet be a force for good in the world, but we have no messianic role to play.\nMiddle Earth News Update",

        "title": "A Fiscal Lesson For Kaepernick\u2019s Naysayers \u2013 The Infield Fly",
        "raw_content": "All of the buzz in the sports world in recent days has revolved around one man. One company. One ad. Nine words.\nThese words plastered on top of a black and white photograph of Colin Kaepernick\u2019s face is the headliner of Nike\u2019s 30 year anniversary of its \u201cJust Do It\u201d campaign, and it has sent the world into a storm. There have been countless responses with wide ranges of feedback, many proud of Colin and Nike for standing up for an issue they deem as important, but many utterly disappointed and feel that this is a disgrace to our troops, flag, and nation as a whole. Many in the latter group had extreme anger evoked from the campaign, and took comparatively extreme measures in order to \u201cget back\u201d at Colin and Nike. These \u201cprotests\u201d if I can even call them that are meant to harm Nike for this horrible deed of making an effective ad campaign. They feel that they are hurting Nike economically, doing their part to run this Anti-American company into the ground. Thankfully, many aren\u2019t taking such extreme measures. While upset about the new campaign, Kaepernick exercising his first amendment right doesn\u2019t seem to have driven them insane; yet at least. They are simply returning to the old reliable, social media, to chime in their two cents on the situation. So, Shoe Burners and Internet Trolls, this is my sarcastic lesson in financial literacy for you, and it\u2019s free! Maybe you could learn a thing or two about money and go into Wall Street or something like that, because politics most definitely are not in your future considering you clearly don\u2019t understand how the first amendment works. So, let\u2019s get to it\u2026\nBefore I go any further with this somewhat snide and sarcastic article, I\u2019d like to throw in a serious disclaimer. My political opinions and biases very clearly come out in this piece, and if you are only here for sports talk this may not be for you. And I totally respect that. You could stop reading the article right here and I won\u2019t fault you, and I\u2019ll be back with my regularly scheduled programming very shortly. But, I do personally believe that there is an important intersection in the world of politics and the world of sports. I don\u2019t think that Laura Ingraham could have been any further off with her \u201cShut up and dribble\u201d comments made with regards to Lebron James and Kevin Durant talking politics. Many athletes are the face, and more importantly the voice, for many underprivileged and underrepresented groups in the American Political bubble. Many athletes know what it is like to live in certain environments that oftentimes seem to be systematically oppressed and ignored, and have enough of a loyal following to make a difference. Athletes like JJ Watt and LeBron James have raised millions for various movements and relief efforts, and athletes like Muhammad Ali and, dare I say it, Colin Kaepernick have led the charge in many crucial political and social movements. They are key aspects to the essence of American politics.\nAll of that being said, let\u2019s revert our attention back to our beloved pyromaniac Shoe Burners. This practice has become somewhat of a viral trend, similar in popularity to the Ice Bucket Challenge, the Harlem Shake, and even that blue and black (that\u2019s right it was blue and black) dress. If you are yet to see one of these cinematic masterpieces, let me explain. People who disagree with Nike\u2019s choice for the face of their new campaign have taken up the practice of burning their own clothing. They have created bonfires in their backyard, thrown their shoes into their fireplaces, and some of the most courageous have burned their shoes while they were still on their feet. They then get their buddy to come film the ceremonial shoe burning while yelling things such as \u201cTo hell with Nike and that washed up snowflake Kaepernick!\u201d or \u201cThis is what you get when you mess with American troops!\u201d and then they shotgun a beer or do something else unnecessary and \u201cmanly\u201d or \u201cAmerican\u201d after. Yep. You really showed them. You burned your own clothes. This is where the fiscal lesson begins. How exactly are you hurting Nike or Colin Kaepernick? You already spent money on those shoes. Burning them once they are already in your possession doesn\u2019t change that. You aren\u2019t harming Nike economically in the slightest. In fact, I\u2019ll take it one step further and say that you are helping them monetarily. Nike Inc. pays millions upon millions of dollars a year to market online and on social media. You are giving them more publicity than they normally have, by an obscene percentage, and giving it to them for free. Nike\u2019s comments and mentions on social media rose by 1,678% in the days following the release of the new campaign. Their publicity is skyrocketing, and they don\u2019t need to spend a dime, and that\u2019s all thanks to your generous donations of time and apparel Shoe Burners! But Adam, you\u2019re so stupid, not all publicity is good publicity. Even though their mentions are going up it doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s a good thing. We are spreading negativity around the company which will hurt their sales. Well, hypothetical Shoe Burner, I\u2019m glad you brought that up. While I agree that, in many cases, not all publicity is good publicity, it seems this is not one of those cases. Since the release of the ad, Nike\u2019s sales have in fact gone up a staggering 31%, which is 17% more than the next highest jump in the same period of time in the company\u2019s history. So, Shoe Burners, you really haven\u2019t done anything to harm Nike or Colin Kaepernick at all. All you\u2019ve done is waste the few hundred bucks you spent on those Jordans.\nI\u2019d also like to say this Shoe Burners, I totally respect your decision to not want to wear Nike shoes anymore. While I disagree with the motives, I, unlike you, understand the first amendment. You have freedom of expression to do and wear what you want. But, instead of doing something stupid like burning your shoes while they are still on your body, you could do something much less stupid and donate to the troops that you claim to care so much about. Because, while Colin Kaepernick hasn\u2019t actually done literally anything to harm the troops, as many actual veterans will attest to, PTSD, as many actual veterans will attest to, has. Taking the Vietnam War as an example, around 30 percent of men and 27 percent of women who took part in that military effort now suffer from PTSD today. While the exact number is unclear, a large percentage of those veterans are sadly living on the streets today due to the fact that it\u2019s hard to attain and sustain a job with those gruesome atrocities constantly spiralling through your head. Even further, many feel the need to turn to self medication to rid of their demons, often in the form of illegal substances that drain time, mental power, and funds, making it close to impossible to be in the workforce. So, just a thought, instead of incinerating your footwear making it useful to nobody, you could give them to the homeless veterans, the people who you are theoretically fighting for, the people who could really use them while in a time of great struggle and need.\nNow, let\u2019s move on from the newer invasive species known as the \u201cShoe Burners\u201d and to a more common breed, a parasitic species that has been slowly but surely eating away at the sanity of surfers of the World Wide Web ever since its creation in the 1990\u2019s, a breed that seems to divide and multiply by the second. The Internet Trolls. Since the beginning of Colin Kaepernick\u2019s civil protest in 2016, the Internet Trolls have had a lot to say on the matter. There have been comments concerning his football skill, calling out his \u2018lack of character,\u201d questioning his race and ethnicity, calling him a communist, saying he hates America, making fun of his hairstyle, implying he hates the troops, accusing him of being a terrorist, and threatening his life among other things. But, one of the most common points I\u2019ve seen raised looks something like this: \u201cWhy does this OVERPAID SNOWFLAKE make so much money for playing a child\u2019s game?\u201d Well middle aged white guy whose profile picture is a selfie that is way too close to his face exemplifying his poorly trimmed goatee and his bandana with an American Flag and / or a skull and crossbones on it, that is where part two of our fiscal lesson comes into play. Let me teach you the most basic principle of economics, supply and demand. What it comes down to is this. Being an NFL quarterback is really, really, really hard. But, when someone is able to master that skill, it makes the game really, really, really fun to watch. Because it is so challenging to be an NFL quarterback, there are very few people who can do so successfully. Around 32 at a time to be exact, and that\u2019s including Nathan Peterman. This means that there are around 32 people at a time who can fill this role, out of 7.442 billion people world wide. That is an astronomically low supply. Then, we can calculate the demand by the popularity of the NFL. Let me tell you, it\u2019s huge. No matter how many times you deny it online, we know exactly what you are doing every Sunday, and that\u2019s watching America\u2019s game. It has an absolutely gargantuan fan base, essentially owning a day of the week, a day of the week that used to be owned by Jesus might I add. Furthermore, the cash flow around the sport is mind boggling. In 2017, the NFL team\u2019s revenue share was North of $8 billion. And that\u2019s not even close to all of the money that any player or entity related to the NFL actually took in. So, it is safe to say there is a sky high demand. In conclusion, when there is a very low supply and a very high demand, people who fit the description for being one of the suppliers will be given a pretty penny. So, middle aged white guy whose profile picture is of him wearing a shirt that reads \u201cDon\u2019t tread on me\u201d and wearing sunglasses indoors because he thinks it makes him look cool, that\u2019s why Colin Kaepernick makes more than you. He is more of a commodity. It\u2019s not that the leftist snowflake libtards are banding their funds together to start some revolution, it\u2019s because he is comparatively better than you in a field in which it is more difficult to be elite. Simple supply and demand.\nSo, I hope this has taught you something about economics. Next, I recommend a history course. Maybe you can start off in 2013, the year Kaepernick led his 49ers team to the Superbowl, and understand how electric he once was. Then, you could work your way back in time, way back, to the founding of our great nation, and read up on the premises of the laws our Founding Fathers built this country upon. Hopefully then you will understand how truly American what Colin is doing actually is. The ability to do what he is doing, respectfully protest for something he thinks is right, exercise his first amendment right, is just about as American as America gets. It\u2019s what separates us from the communist authoritarian and totalitarian governments we all despise. It\u2019s what makes the United States the greatest country in the world.\nPreviousThe Slot Receiver: The Most Interesting Position in Sports\nNextThe MLB Needs to Get Rid of the Intentional Hit Batsman",

        "raw_content": "Nine9 Gives People Opportunities and Treats Them Like Family\nNine9 is getting a lot of attention lately. One of the reasons behind all of the recognition is that Nine9 is very effective at what it does for its clients. The first thing that the agency does is help get the clients ready for the search for work. However, the search is often very short because they easily find something that they can do. For one thing, it works very good in their favor. One thing that makes it easier for the clients to find work is that Nin9 has a lot of access to new opportunities for projects. This is one of the more promising aspects of the company and more information click here.\nWhen clients look for an opportunity, they will easily be able to find it in the database that is constantly updated with new opportunities that people can take advantage of. One of the best parts of these opportunities is that there are a lot of new opportunities that are being posted for a multitude of locations. This makes it easier for people to find something that they can be a part of. A lot of people who sign up for Nine9 go on to become a regular part of an ongoing project.\nWhile most agencies would have people be fortunate to even be part of an in-store demonstration, Nine9 helps people get roles in films that turn out to be big hits. They also get to be extras in films along side the big stars. The best part is that they stay with the client and treat them like they are part of the family. This is one thing that keeps the client encouraged in times when they are not getting as much work as they like. For one thing, people understand that there is a lot of time that could pass before one actually gets the role and learn more about Nine9.\nMore visit: https://nine9.com/castings\n\u2190 The Growth of Renown Health: Leading Consumers into a Changing Health Care World\tIs Sylvester Stallone Going To Make A Home In The MCU? \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Home \u00bb Guest Contributor \u00bb The \u2018War\u2019 on Terror vs. a Police Action\nPosted by RICK MORAN, Guest Voice Columnist on May 5, 2010 in Guest Contributor, Politics, War | 0 comments\nThe \u2018War\u2019 on Terror vs. a Police Action\nThis blurb by Dave Neiwert at Crooks and Liars is fascinating. It is so blithely ignorant of its own irony that it could easily be construed as a child sticking its tongue out at a playmate and sneering, \u201cSo there, nyeah.\u201d\nThe next time you hear some right-winger (most notably Dick Cheney) sneer at the Obama administration\u2019s \u201claw enforcement approach to terrorism,\u201d remember this.\nRemember what? How incredibly lucky we are because twice now since Christmas we failed to interdict a terrorist attack because the essence of the \u201claw enforcement approach\u201d is to wait until the terrorists have killed a lot of Americans before acting? The \u201claw enforcement approach\u201d did not stop Shahzad from trying to incinerate New Yorkers in Times Square, nor did it stop Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab from trying to bring down an airplane filled with people on Christmas day.\nIf Mr. Shahdaz was sitting in jail right after a successful attack, how sneeringly juvenile would Neiwert be about that? If Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab had been able to bring down the plane on Christmas day, how much crowing would Neiwert be doing about the \u201claw enforcement approach\u201d to terrorism?\nThe police have an important role to play in the War on Terror. No one disputes this except people like Neiwert trying to set up strawman arguments to shadow box with his political opponents. International cooperation to break up terror cells already in place is a vital component to keep us safe. Cheney should know. He headed a Bush administration effort that, for all its faults, worked closely with our allies, and even those nations who don\u2019t like us very much (Pakistan) in a proactive attempt to foil terrorist plots before they occurred.\nThose of us who believe that we are at war with Islamic extremists (they certainly believe they are at war with us) want to go beyond this common sense approach and, using special forces, drones, and even assassins, attack terrorists where they are hiding to prevent them from planning attacks on us in the first place. Also, if necessary, attack nations that harbor and succor terrorists who have successfully attacked America.\nDon\u2019t look now, but President Obama is doing all of that (I have no doubt he would respond with military force if it could be shown a major attack on America originated in a country that allowed terrorists safe haven). He\u2019s just not calling it a \u201cWar on Terror\u201d and has liberals like Neiwert bamboozled into thinking he has altered President Bush\u2019s policies much at all. He hasn\u2019t. He has stepped up the use of drones on our enemies while special forces are assisting Yemenis, Pakistanis, and probably other nations in going after and killing terrorists. His emphasis on law enforcement is cosmetic. In order not to offend the sensibilities of moderate Muslims (and to fool his own domestic political base), the president is downplaying the military aspect of the War on Terror in his public pronouncements. What goes on behind the scenes is a different story.\nCheney is upset that Obama isn\u2019t acting like a cowboy and broadcasting our efforts to fight a war against the terrorists where they live and plot their attacks. And liberals like Neiwert are deluding themselves if they think that because the atmospherics have changed, the policy has been altered. Nothing could be further from the truth.\nCIA paramilitaries, SEALS, Green Berets, and special forces units from every branch of the service are engaged in a \u201chot\u201d war with those who would do us harm. They are working with the military and intelligence services of other nations to track, expose, and kill terrorists. By any definition you want to use, this is war. And Neiwert\u2019s arrogant posturing notwithstanding, it is a vitally important adjunct to efforts by police around the world to carry out their own anti-terrorism functions that not only look to capture terrorists before they can harm us, but also take away their sources of finance, cut off their communications with their overseas masters, and relentlessly pursue them, never giving them a moment\u2019s rest.\nOur military constantly feeds intelligence gleaned from their efforts to our allies in the War on Terror who pass the information along to local and national police authorities. It is a symbiotic relationship that has proven very successful \u2013 for the most part. But as former DHS Secretary Tom Ridge pointed out years ago, we have to be successful in interdicting the terrorist\u2019s plans 100% of the time where they only have to be successful once in order to kill a lot of Americans.\nThe recent attacks in Detroit on Christmas day and in Times Square over the weekend highlight that truism. It is worrisome in both instances that our own government dropped the ball; a failure in airport security measures that failed to stop Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab from attempting his murder, and several red flags that should have made Faisal Shahzad a person of interest to domestic law enforcement. This calls into question the basic competence of this administration and whether President Obama is protecting the homeland adequately.\nOnly by the grace of God and the incompetence of the attackers has a major domestic terrorist incident been avoided over the last few months. I hardly think that calls for the kind of childishness offered up by Dave Neiwert or any other lefty who is stupidly celebrating their \u201cvictory\u201d over their political foes.\nA few more victories like that and we\u2019re going to have a lot of dead Americans to mourn.",

Alwaleed told the news organization that he maintained his innocence and he had been able to stay in contact with his family members as well as his businesses while held in the Ritz-Carlton.\nOther detainees have also been released in recent days and the Ritz-Carlton Riyadh is now scheduled to reopen to the public on February 14. A search for the hotel using Ritz-Carlton\u2019s website shows rooms now available for booking starting on that date at a price of 2,439 SAR (~US$650) per night.\nApproximately 95 people currently remain in detention at the five-star hotel, and authorities say that any that remain after February 14 will be moved to a regular Saudi prison to await trial.",

        "raw_content": "Lender sues former Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach developer allegedly hit with multimillion-dollar loss on sale\nHeafey paid $100M for the unfinished project at the end of 2016\nBy Francisco Alvarado | July 31, 2017 02:45PM\nRendering of the Conrad Fort Lauderdale. Inset: buyer Pierre Heafey\nOne of the previous developers of the oft-delayed, oft-troubled Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach condo-hotel project lost between $55 million to $85 million when it sold its stake to Quebec, Canada-based Heafey Group seven months ago, according to a lawsuit recently filed in Miami-Dade Circuit Court.\nAs a result, the former developer, Doral-based Conrad FLB Management is unable to pay back a $1 million promissory note plus accrued unpaid interest it obtained from Diego Investments Ltd. in 2013, the lawsuit states. Diego Investments is suing Conrad FLB for allegedly defaulting on the loan and unjust enrichment.\nOn Dec. 30, 2016, an affiliate of Conrad FLB \u2014 CFLB Partnership LLC, which is managed by Jose and Joseph Cabanas \u2014 sold 232 units plus commercial and common space to Heafey affiliated companies in four separate transactions totaling $100 million. The Heafey affiliates also assumed a $236.5 million mortgage from Ladder Capital Finance. The Cabanas and their representatives, Sergio Pagliery and Candido Viyella, could not be reached for comment.\nThe Cabanas were part of an investment group led by hotel developer Orchestra Hotels + Resorts that bought the project in 2013 for $115 million. Their plan was to spend $40 million to complete and renovate the unfinished building at 551 North Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard into a 290-unit tower with 109 condos and 181 condo-hotel units. The budget ballooned by at least $70 million and the completion date has been pushed back several times.\nAccording to the lawsuit, the principals and promoters for the project secured the $1 million note from Diego Investments on October 28, 2013. Jason Giller, Diego Investments\u2019 attorney, said the Cabanas and Orchestra touted their past developments and guaranteed success.\nHowever, on the third anniversary of the loan, Diego Investments exercised an option for full payment of the note, plus accrued unpaid interest, the lawsuit claims. Unbeknownst to Diego Investments, Conrad FLB\u2019s affiliate sold its stake to Heafey at a \u201cmaterial loss\u201d and \u201cthe borrower is now in an inferior financial position\u201d than at the time the note was issued, according to the suit.\n\u201cWhen the note was called, they were nowhere to be found,\u201d Giller said. \u201cAnd it was only during our investigation did we learn that the project was surreptitiously sold, without notice, consent or substitution.\u201d\nGiller also said Conrad FLB closed a bad deal despite the strong luxury condo submarket in Fort Lauderdale. \u201cThese shocking events are not only unfortunate, but bewildering,\u201d Giller said.\nThe Conrad originally launched in 2004 as the Trump International Hotel & Tower. Developer Roy Stillman\u2019s SB Hotel Associates had obtained a licensing agreement with the Trump Organization, but litigation between buyers and SB resulted in the builder running out of money. The project ultimately failed.\nTags: Commercial Real Estate, conrad fort lauderdale beach, Heafey Group, lawsuits, Residential Real Estate",

JUDY HU/THE VARSITY\nhttp://var.st/2xe\nProfessor Emeritus Ellen Hodnett\u2019s three-year term as University Ombudsperson is coming to a close. Hodnett has served as a faculty member in the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing for 39 years and as an elected member of Governing Council for nine years.\nEstablished in 1975, the Office of the University Ombudsperson is an independent body designed to provide confidential and impartial advice to students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Based on these observations, the office publishes an annual report to inform Governing Council of the systemic issues that merit review.\nHodnett stressed that the role of the office is not for advocacy, but rather to ensure fair application of policy. She said that the office has a \u201cgreat deal of informal power\u201d with the publication of their reports. \u201cI really like that it keeps everyone honest since our assessment of policy is open to the public.\u201d\nThe Review Committee has been established to assess the role of the Ombudsperson, whose findings Governing Council must review and approve. Following this, the Search Committee will be established to find a successor. According to the terms of reference for the Office of the Ombudsperson, this is conventional practice.\nDirector of Media Relations Althea Blackburn-Evans said that no speculation can be made as to whether changes will be implemented as the review is still underway.\nHodnett remains concerned about the low number of people seeking support from the Ombudsperson\u2019s office, especially from UTM and UTSC. According to the Ombudsperson\u2019s 2016\u20132017 Annual Report, the office handled 339 cases, relatively similar to the numbers in 2015\u20132016 and 2014\u20132015, which respectively handled 316 and 314.\nHodnett said the office does not have the data to explain why so few members from each campus are using the office for support. \u201cFor all we know it could [be] because the policies in place are effective and people don\u2019t have to reach us with their issues.\u201d Hodnett suggested that the Review Committee consider having an Ombudsperson for each campus.\nHodnett plans to address this concern with the Review Committee, but she recognizes this is just one possible model. She emphasized the need for careful consultation and other ideas to increase accessibility and stimulate a productive dialogue.\nUniversity of Toronto Students\u2019 Union President Mathias Memmel suggested that the Office of the University Ombudsperson focus beyond systemic issues. Further, he recommended a \u201cgreater emphasis on a timeline for implementation,\u201d due to Governing Council\u2019s slow responses to the Ombudsperson\u2019s reports.\nIn addition, Memmel claimed the reports \u201ctend to highlight one or two issues\u2026 excluding some simply because they don\u2019t fit priority one or two.\u201d\nTo assist in the assessment process, the Review Committee invites members of U of T to share their thoughts and feedback regarding the Office of the University Ombudsperson and submit nominations for the next Ombudsperson.",

        "raw_content": "I think it\u2019s safe to say our winner will do well at the box office.\n\u2013 The Hobbit: 16 votes\n\u2013 Les Miserables: 6 votes\n\u2013 Breaking Dawn Part 2: 4 votes\n\u2013 Hitchcock: 3 votes\n\u2013 Killing Them Softly: 2 votes\n\u2013 Life of Pi: 2 votes\n\u2013 Zero Dark Thirty: 2 votes\n\u2013 Anna Karenina: 1 vote\n\u2013 Rise of the Guardians: 1 vote\nNo real surprise here. Despite The Hobbit (unnecessarily) being split into three films, there are still a lot of people excited to see it. Hopefully Peter Jackson can rekindle the same magic found in his Lord of the Rings trilogy.\nThis Week\u2019s Poll: Since The Hobbit has generated so much excitement, now seems to be a good time to settle a popular debate. Which fantasy series do you prefer: Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter? I know there are diehard fans of both, so this should be a fun poll. Can Tolkien reign supreme once again?\nAny thoughts on either poll? Did your selection(s) win?\nPosted in: Features, Movies | Tagged: lord of the rings, movies, poll results, the hobbit, weekly poll\nDVD Mini-Reviews: Safety Not Guaranteed, Magic Mike, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, Sound of My Voice\n26 thoughts on \u201cPoll Results: Most Anticipated 2012 Film (November & December)\u201d\nIt\u2019s an apples and oranges comparison.\nHarry Potter is a great franchise, but it is aimed at a younger audience that aged as the characters aged. LOTR is aimed at adults.\nI can watch any of the three LOTR films, but tend to only gravitate to the later Potter films.\nGood point, Victor. Completely different franchises, but they do tend to get lumped together more often than not.\nIt\u2019s good to know your followers are nerds \ud83d\ude00\nThey could have been twilight fans \ud83d\ude26\nHaha. I\u2019m actually surprised Twilight got as many votes as it did. Guess a lot of people were excited to see the series wrap up!\nI think most are happy its over \ud83d\ude00\nI\u2019m really looking forward to the Hobbit, going to be fun to return to the LOTR again. I really like the LOTR films and books, The Fellowship of the Ring is my favourite. I\u2019ve never really been a fan of the Harry Potter films, seen a couple of them, but I just like the LOTR films more.\nYeah I hear ya. To me, the LOTR universe is far more interesting than anything Harry Potter. Hope The Hobbit is as good as it should be!\nThink the Hobbit will be really good. They did a great job with the LOTR series, so I have a feeling that The Hobbit will be just as epic! Can\u2019t wait to see it :O)\nGlad people are in agreement about The Hobbit!! Can\u2019t wait to see it. I actually got an advanced screening to it but unfortunately I\u2019ll be out of the country until Christmas.\nSo I think you could guess which franchise I voted for in your current poll \ud83d\ude42\nAhhh, that would be an awesome movie to see early! How long are you going to be away, Ruth?\nI haven\u2019t actually watched the Harry Potter films yet, save for the first one. But even so, I think I\u2019d go with Lord of the Rings; I like the books better, as well.\nI don\u2019t think you\u2019re missing much with Harry Potter, though I\u2019m sure its fans would disagree. \ud83d\ude42\nRight now my most anticipated is probably Killing Them Softly\nI\u2019m looking forward to that one as well.\nOnly seen 1 Harry Potter film. It was midway through the series and I still thought none of the kids could act. Never seen the appeal.\nLOTR on the other hand \u2013 loved! Grew up reading the books and the films are just an extension of that.\nHaha well I\u2019m right there with you on Harry Potter. I have seen all of them since my girlfriend is a huge fan, but I never got the appeal either. I\u2019ll take LOTR any day, and it seems everyone is in agreement on that so far.\nWell, I\u2019m still looking forward to Django Unchained more than the Hobbit, but I can understand the excitement.\nAs for LOTR or Potter, just looking at my DVD collection I have to go with the first as I don\u2019t have any Potter movies. I must admit though that although I\u2019ve the extended movies I don\u2019t think I ever watched them.\nDjango Unchained is my most anticipated film, too.\nI\u2019ll never forget spending an entire day to watching the LOTR trilogy \u2014 all extended cuts \u2014 back-to-back-to-back. I was burned out by the end, but it\u2019s a good series. \ud83d\ude42\nLOTR for me as well, really enjoyed the books as well.\nI never did finish reading all of LOTR. Got about 1/3 into The Two Towers, I believe. The Hobbit, on the other hand, I have read more than once. Happy to finally have a new film adaptation for that one.\nThat is how The Silmarillion was for me. I completely gave up trying to read it after the third attempt.\nHi fellow blogger! I have nominated you for Blog Of The Year 2012. Congratulations! Please see my post for the rules.\nThe Lord of the Rings films are great, and right up there for my favorites. I only enjoyed the last two Potter films.\nI liked how dark the Harry Potter series got toward the end, but overall it didn\u2019t do much for me.\nI think I must be the only person in the world that doesn\u2019t like the LOTR films, can\u2019t believe they\u2019re stretching the Hobbit into 3 films as well. I\u2019m not much of a HP fan but I definitely preferred the last 3 or 4 of them to LOTR. Bring On Django Unchained!!\nTo be honest, I am not much of a fan of either series. The Hobbit was one of my favorite books back in the day, but I don\u2019t like that it\u2019s being stretched into three films\u2026 Two was bad enough!",

        "raw_content": "Home News Automotive Maserati to Revamp Marketing Strategy to Increase Sales\nMike Manley, who took over as the CEO of Maserati after the sad demise of Sergio Marchionne has announced that Maserati is going to revamp its marketing strategy. This is being done to counter the slump in sales that the brand experienced last year, with global sales dropping by 28 percent in 2018. Manley has brought back Harald Wester, who oversaw a rise in Maserati\u2019s fortunes from 2008 to 2016. Waster has been asked to put a new management team in place so that Maserati could regain its past glory and rise to even greater heights.\nManley admitted that it had been a mistake to put Maserati and Alfa Romeo together as it reduced the focus on Maserati as a brand. He went on to state that he expected Harald and his new team to start making significant progress from the second half of 2019.\nFCA has decided that it would now be positioning Maserati as a \u201cluxury brand\u201d rather than as a premium brand like the Alfa Romeo by focusing more on models like the Maserati Levante crossover rather than the Quattroporte and the Ghibli. Maserati will also be making \u201cspecialty models\u201d to fill in product gaps by rampjng up its investment in the Giorgio vehicle architecture for future models.\nThe Giorgio platform is already used as the basic platform for a number of models which include the Stelvio and the Alfa Romeo Giulia. Maerati is likely to use this platform for the mid-size crossover it had announced last year. That model is likely to be slotted in below the Levante and might have a plug-in hybrid variant. It is also expected to have a 50/50 weight distribution and a best-in-class power-to-weight ratio.\nMaserati also confirmed plans for an all-new Levante and Quattroporte. Both of these models will be based on a modular platform, have a 50/50 weight distribution and have plug-in hybrid as well as battery electric powertrains.\nTags: marketing strategyMaserati",

We will talk about what these standards are.\nWhy should you Attend: In today's workplace there are numerous situations that can cause problems for employers that need to be followed up on and investigated by HR. These include claims of harassment, claims of discrimination, claims of hostile environment, claims of retaliation, claims of improper pay practices, and many more claims of improper management practices. HR usually ends up with the responsibility for conducting these investigations. Companies that opt not to conduct investigations generally do not correct situations on which these claims are made and ultimately end up in court costing them tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars.

        "raw_content": "Jessica Taylor, Leaf Group\nThe Parachute Jump lives on as a landmark in Coney Island. (Photo: Ryan McVay/Stockbyte/Getty Images )\nThe Most Popular Attractions in New York City\nLas Vegas Family Vacation Attractions\nAttractions for Young Adults in New Jersey\nLocated in southern Brooklyn, New York, Coney Island is known for its busy beaches and lively amusement park. While this area may seem like nothing but fun, there's also some serious history lurking among the hot dog stands and midway games. In this small area of Brooklyn you'll find five official landmarks that are protected by the state because of their historical and cultural significance.\nVisitors to Coney Island can't help but notice the brightly painted building covered with colorful murals on 1208 Surf Ave,, which is currently the headquarters of the nonprofit group Coney Island USA (coneyisland.com). Called the Child's Restaurant Building, this eye-catching structure was officially given landmark status by New York's Landmarks Preservation Commission in January 2011. The Spanish and Mediterranean revival style building, constructed in 1917, housed Coney Island's first restaurant, and is now home to the Coney Island Museum and the famed Coney Island Circus Sideshow.\nYour ride on the Cyclone may only last one minute and 50 seconds, but it's a ride with a long and storied history. Coney Island's wooden Cyclone roller coaster debuted in 1927, gained official landmark status in 1988 and earned a place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. This world famous coaster starts with a 60-degree drop at 85 feet in the air and travels at speeds of up to 60 miles per hour as it twists and turns along the 2,640 foot track.\nThe Wonder Wheel (wonderwheel.com) isn't just a Ferris wheel, it's also a registered NYC landmark. Built in 1920 using steel forged on site, this 150-feet high, 400,000-pound contraption towers above Coney Island's main amusement park along the boardwark. Riders have a choice between blue, red or white cars. For an extra thrill, take a turn on a red or blue car, as these swing back and forth as the wheel turns. If you'd rather skip the added swing, choose a stationary white car instead.\nThough Coney Island's Parachute Jump hasn't functioned as an amusement park ride since 1968, this New York landmark still stands tall. The 262-foot steel frame structure was originally created for the New York World's Fair in Queens in 1939, then moved to Coney Island in 1941. Dubbed \"The Eiffel Tower of Brooklyn,\" the Parachute Jump makes for a prime photo op for visitors to Coney Island's boardwalk.\nShore Theater\nThough you can't enter the building, you can snap a picture of the facade of the Shore Theater, which was approved as a New York landmark in 2010. This seven-story neo-Renaissance revival building, formerly called the Coney Island Theater, dates back to 1925 and was once home to burlesque shows and musical revues. Later, the historic building screened adult films before turning into a bingo hall. As of the date of publication, the Shore Theater remains vacant and closed to the public.\nNew York City Landmarks Preservation Commission: Former Coney Island Restaurant And Accounting Firm Headquarters in Midtown Given Landmark Status\nNew York Times: In Coney Island, Landmark Status for Fire-Eaters\u2019 Showplace\nLuna Park: The Cyclone\nTime Out New York: Coney Island Parachute Jump Tower\nNew York Times: Coney Island\u2019s Shore Theater Is Named a Landmark\nAttribution: Rhododendrites; License: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license\nAttribution: Willyumdelirious at English Wikipedia; License: Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 Generic license\nAttribution: Psychocadet; License: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license\nAttribution: MusikAnimal; License: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license\nAttribution: DangApricot; License: GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2\nTaylor, Jessica. \"Landmarks in Coney Island, Brooklyn.\" Travel Tips - USA Today, https://traveltips.usatoday.com/landmarks-coney-island-brooklyn-103722.html.

If you miss it, you can see it here.\nToday is the first day of the no-more-penny era. Retailers will now be rounding up or down any cash purchases to the nearest nickel. All other methods of payments will continue to use the penny.\nThere are a few stories floating around suggesting retailers are somehow going to cash in on this new system by purposely pricing their items with a three, four, eight , or nine cent ending in order to \u201cforce\u201d all their sales to round up (as opposed to down). Of course, this won\u2019t work because the rounding occurs only on the total purchase, not individual items.\nCheck out CBC\u2019s article about the first day of penny-free transactions.\n\u201cCanadian charities are hoping to get their hands on some of the more than 6 billion pennies out there. (Graeme Roy/Canadian Press)\u201d\nTags: penny\nBye-bye, penny\u2026\nOn July 30, 2012, the Honourable Jim Flaherty, Minister of Finance, officially announced that the Mint will stop circulating pennies as of February 4, 2013. This transition date will not require new production of pennies, as the existing supply available for circulation is sufficient to cover that period.\nMore information on the Royal Canadian Mint\u2019s website\nWhat it means for businesses\nBusinesses do not need to update cash registers for rounding, since prices and the final total payment will still be set at one-cent increments.\nGST/HST will be calculated on the pre-tax price, and not the rounded price. When customers do not have exact change, it is only the final total for cash payments that must be rounded.\nElectronic payments, such as credit and debit cards, will not be rounded and will still be paid to the nearest cent.\nConsumers can continue to use pennies for cash transactions indefinitely and businesses are encouraged to continue to accept the coin as a means of payment.\nBusinesses are expected to round prices in a fair, consistent and transparent manner.\nRounding guidelines will be adopted by all federal government entities for cash transactions with the Canadian public.\nExperience in other countries that have eliminated low denomination coins has shown that fair rounding practices have been respected.\nMore information on the Mint\u2019s website.\nA 4-litre pickle jar can contain:\n8,400 dimes = $840.00\n3,411 quarters = $852.75\nA Mint employee brought in a 4-litre pickle jar of small change that had been accumulating over the years.

        "raw_content": "How to Become a Social Studies Teacher\nThe requirements to become a social studies teacher in the US are usually categorized in direct undergraduate education degree or an alternative teacher certification pathway. Either of the two, the certification process is usually in two tiers; a bachelor degree AND a certification or assessment program.\nIf you want to become a social studies teacher and already have a bachelor degree, the first step is passing a screening process to be admitted to a state-approved graduate program with education and Social Studies core subjects. A passing mark in PRAXIS and at least a 2.5 GPA is also initially required in most states. A bachelor degree in Social Studies or equivalent programs may have advantage in reducing the core subjects and speeding up the timeline. Most state universities offer professional education programs that can be completed in a year or two, which equivalently leads to a Master degree. Most of the Social studies programs include anthropology, economics, political science, sociology, and world history courses. At the same time, one is required to take pedagogy studies in education for elementary and secondary levels.\nAfter completing the training program, one must serve practicum or teaching internship hours. Usually, a probationary teaching certificate is given to new graduates of teacher training programs, which allows them to get paid practicum or teaching internships within the state. The practicum is supervised by an administrator or a fellow teacher. A crucial step is to pass an observed teaching class by the school board. After that, one can get an official Social Studies teaching certificate.\nFor those who want to pursue a teaching degree, universities in United States offer education courses for students in 4-year programs for History, Anthropology and Social Studies. Some universities also offer BA \u2013 Master degree in just 5 years, which is highly desirable in most educators sectors nowadays. For example in New York, all teachers are required to get a relevant master\u2019s degree within five years from start of their teaching profession. Integrated or accelerated baccalaureate-masters prove to be time saving, apart from strengthening teacher\u2019s knowledge on the subject matter.\nFor foreign teachers or college graduates that aspire to be a Social Studies teacher in the United States, the bachelor degree you hold must be equivalent to the bachelor degree in the US. Your transcript and course descriptions will be evaluated by the state education department. Once approved, you\u2019ll also need TOEFL or IELTS passing scores if you come from countries where English if not the first language. One must also pass PRAXIS exams to determine subject proficiency. Official J-1 or H1-B visa are also needed. Some states also recognize previous teaching experience. For example in Arizona, if you have more than 2 years of teaching experience, you may qualify for accelerated alternative teacher certificate.",

        "raw_content": "Rosalind James\n(Portland Devils)\nNo more wild rides. No more wild side.\nBlake Orbison\u2019s pro football career may have ended with a bang, but not calling the signals anymore just gives him more time to devote to his business enterprises, including the latest and greatest: the opening of the Wild Horse Resort in scenic north Idaho. And that other one, too. Blake\u2019s on the marriage track, and he\u2019s got a game plan. But when he runs into a trespasser leaping from his shoreline boulders into his lake, what\u2019s a good ol\u2019 boy to do but strip down and join her?\nDakota Savage is nobody\u2019s temporary diversion, least of all the man responsible for her family\u2019s semi-desperate circumstances. Some people may think she has a piercing too many, but she\u2019s had more than enough of being called trash in this town. She\u2019s come home to Wild Horse to run her stepfather\u2019s painting business, and any extra time she has goes into creating her stained glass. An overpaid, entitled, infuriating NFL quarterback is no part of her life plan, no matter how sweet he talks. No matter how slow he smiles. No matter what.\nIt wasn\u2019t Jerry. That much, she could tell as he got closer. It was somebody a whole lot slimmer. Tall, check. Short dark hair, check. Black shirt, check. But no gut, and she thought there was some darkness around the jaw that wasn\u2019t quite a beard. Another security guy. She could be cute enough for him. Maybe. What would he care, really, what she did?\n\u201cHi,\u201d she said as he approached. \u201cNext time maybe don\u2019t yell right when I\u2019m jumping.\u201d Taking the initiative. Projecting confidence. She was better at that than \u201ccute.\u201d\n\u201cHell of a graceful landing,\u201d he agreed, and glasses or no, she could see the flash of white teeth through the dark stubble just fine. Also that he had a pair of shoulders to die for, and some very nice arms in that T-shirt. Not to mention long legs in dusty jeans and work boots, and about six foot three of lean muscle. Nobody she knew, because she\u2019d have noticed him. She might not be able to see him, exactly, but she could see enough.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re security,\u201d she said, \u201cI was just going.\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m not security. And I hope that\u2019s a lie that you were just going, because that looked real fun.\u201d\nHe had a Southern drawl she\u2019d surely never heard in Wild Horse. Slow as molasses, and just that thick and sweet. Ah hope thass a lah that you were juss goin\u2019. \u201cLet me guess,\u201d she said, feeling a sneaky little surge of excitement. \u201cYou\u2019re out here to do wrong. Sign says \u2018No Trespassing,\u2019 and you\u2019ve been given the big lecture, but you\u2019re not worried, because you\u2019re a badass like that.\u201d\nSome more grin. \u201cCould be. Is that water deep enough to be safe? We\u2019re both too pretty to get ourselves paralyzed.\u201d\n\u201cOh, yeah,\u201d she assured him. \u201cBest spot on the lake for it. No place else has rocks like this or a pool this deep. Which means, of course, that the Man comes and fences it off and tells you that you can\u2019t use it anymore, even if you\u2019re working out here. Gotta love capitalism, and this is about the worst.\u201d\nHe gazed into the distance and scratched thoughtfully at his cheek. \u201cBad place to work, you think? Huh.\u201d\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t do it for a heartbeat if I didn\u2019t need the money. You could say that I\u2019m not in love with Mr. Blake Orbison or his company. But you know, we all need the money.\u201d\n\u201cThat we do. Arrogant guy?\u201d\n\u201cLet\u2019s say that I don\u2019t like the way he treats people. On an . . . institutional scale.\u201d Whoa, girl, she told herself. Lose the bitter and get back to reckless. More attractive, and a whole lot more fun. Trust her to meet a truly prime specimen of manflesh for once and immediately put him off. \u201cSo I\u2019m sure I shouldn\u2019t jump off his rocks. But hey, what\u2019s life without a little danger?\u201d There, that was better.\n\u201cNow, see, darlin\u2019,\u201d he said, his voice getting even deeper, the accent going a shade richer, \u201cthat\u2019s what I tell myself all the time.

        "raw_content": "Tag Archives: youth work sector\nProfessional youth work\nThere has been a lot of talk over the past few decades about the need for professional youth work. We have talked about it al lot too (to see some of our thoughts click here). The issue is if you ask the average youth worker what the sector means by professionalisation they have vague answers at best. If you get someone on their game they may speak about things like qualifications, codes of ethics and pay and conditions of workers. The big issue here is we don\u2019t really know what we mean when we say we need to professionalise!\nIf you do a cursory glance at the literature on professional youth work however it becomes clear very quickly what model academics and senior practitioners are talking about. It is a model that harkens back to the structural functionalists of the early 20th century. These writers such as Emile Durkheim and Talcott Parsons saw the need for groups of people to hold knowledge about certain issues for the good of the whole society. They saw a link between the legitimate \u201cprofessions\u201d and character traits such as self-sacrifice on the part of the individual, ethical practice framed by a code of ethics, autonomy of the profession, and monopoly over a body of knowledge. They saw the need for the strengthening of university education to confer attainment of these traits to professionals and legitimation of the professions.\nSociologist and University of California Berkley, Social Welfare Professor, Ernest Greenwood (1957), best described a profession in terms that we see in the social welfare literature today by identifying five common attributes that distinguish them from non-professional associations. His work contributed significantly to the professionalization movement in social work within the United States of America throughout the latter part of the twentieth century. Greenwood\u2019s work has also been used throughout the social welfare sector to develop core frameworks to develop many professional associations.\n[Tweet \u201cPerhaps we need a new discussion in youth work that asks what type of professionals we want to be\u201d]\nSurveying the relevant literature in the mid twentieth century Greenwood identified five attributes that characterised professionals:\nsystematic theory\ncommunity sanction\nBy systematic theory Greenwood means, \u201ca system of abstract propositions that describe in general terms the classes of phenomena comprising the profession\u2019s focus of interest\u201d. By authority, Greenwood believes that the knowledge of a discipline which frames its systematic theory sets a professional apart from the layman as holder of professional authority. Community sanctions are those which state who can and can\u2019t be a member, particularly which education makes you a professional and which doesn\u2019t. A Code of ethics sets the formal guidelines for a profession, hence, \u201cthe profession\u2019s commitment to the social welfare becomes a matter of public record; thereby insuring for itself the continued confidence of the community\u201d. Finally, by culture, Greenwood means the unwritten code of conduct generated by groups within the profession, \u201cthe interaction of social roles required by these formal and informal groups generate a social configuration unique to the profession, viz., a professional culture\u201d.\nAs the dominant model of professionalisation in the social welfare sector Greenwood\u2019s Attributes Model cannot be ignored. However, it doesn\u2019t need to be followed blindly either. Perhaps we need a new discussion in youth work. One that asks what type of professionals we want to be\u2026 Rather than how we can be like everyone else.\nWhat do you think we should be like?\nABCD for Youth Work\nMuch of 2016 was horrible for the profession of youth work. Our funding was cut\u2026 yet again, more of our colleagues lost their jobs and still more left because of burnout. Much of our discussion of the profession of youth work has focussed on what we don\u2019t have and what we aren\u2019t yet. Aside from a few fledgling state based professional associations our move towards developing the profession of youth work has stalled. So what next? What is the next step for us in developing the profession of youth work in Australia? What can we learn from Asset Based Community Development?\nTo begin with I think we need to re-evaluate where we are at and where we want to be. For the last few years we have rested on the academic work of he last decade to frame our arguments around professionalism. There has been a glaring omission in this research, the voice of the youth worker. For the most part the work on the development of professional youth work in Australia has been the purview of academics, peak bodies and industry groups. We need to hear what those on the front line want from a professional association. We also need to ask what this association would look like?\nOne framework that could help us to begin reframing the discussion is Asset Based Community Development (ABCD). Asset-based community development (ABCD) is a methodology for the sustainable development of communities based on their strengths and potentials. It involves assessing the resources, skills, and experience available in a community; organizing the community around issues that move its members into action; and then determining and taking appropriate action\nLiberation is a key focus of youth work theory and is a focus we should consider in professionalising. Harvard University academic Rosabeth Moss Kanter says that when we do change to people, they experience it as violence, but when people do change to themselves, they experience it as liberation. There are currently three groups in the debate; those who are in favour of professionalising, those who are against professionalising and those who are apathetic to the whole debate. None of these groups are experiencing liberation.\nWe are a divided community. Partly this is due to the competitive nature of government funding, partly our qualification system and partly how our services are set up. We have become so entrenched in the deficits based funding models that we see our professional deficits. We have so brought into the minimum qualifications mentality and graduate so few postgrads that the notion of becoming a highly educated profession is fascicle. We also have difficulty transitioning between statutory and non-government service provision. Honestly we focus more on our diversity than we do on the things that make youth work cohesive.\nIts easy these days to focus on what is wrong in youth work. Like I said, its embedded in our way of thinking. We need to move as Cormac Russell states from, \u201cwhats wrong to whats strong\u201d in our youth work community. What assets do we bring to the question of professionalising? What is our strength? How can we use our strengths to meet our agreed goals? We need to build our community. We need a clear goal for youth work as a profession. Perhaps ABCD can help us to develop these areas.\nfuture youth sector\nIs this the future youth sector?\nThere is a lot of talk in the youth sector which is splitting the camps into those wanting to go back to an age where we were well funded by government and able to do our own thing versus those wanting to collude with government and find a way to keep going while under austerity. At the risk of throwing the cat amongst the pigeons we think both groups have lost the plot. Infighting is neither helpful to our young people nor a way of developing the sector.\nOver the years we have written extensively on the need for the youth sector to take it to the next level. The golden age is gone but we don\u2019t have a clear framework for what is to come. So here are a few of our thoughts:\nWe need to stop following the well beaten course towards professionalisation. There is a definite need for a more professional youth sector. But how we get there\u2026 that\u2019s more open for debate. We need to have a distinctly youth work profession. One which involves young people as well as provides support for them.\nWe need to develop a path of education that students and the sector want to progress. Our framework for youth work education is 20 years old and desperately needs an update. Mental health, online work, family violence and reflective practice are areas we need more focus on as a start.\nWe need more cooperation. We spend so much of our time in our own silos or scrambling over each other for the crumbs of government funding. We have some cooperation but it generally only comes until we might lose our funding or reputation. If we really want the sector to change we need to work together for industrial action, sector redevelopment and collegiate support.\nWe need to blaze a trail which fits our professional values. Because there is currently nothing that really fits. A good friend of ours used to say; any dead fish can float down stream, it takes a live one to swim against the current. At the moment it seems we are just floating. #towards2020\nWe need to develop our youth work research base\nPosted on July 2, 2015 July 2, 2015 by Aaron Garth\nYouth work research has come a long way over the past decade or so. We have gone from a profession that was grappling with how we used others knowledge in our practice to one that was seriously beginning to develop our own knowledge base. We have gone from having a few key researchers to a burgeoning professional and academic research cohort. We are developing more post graduate students and more PhD\u2019s every year. Yet, we still have a long way to go to cement our research credentials as a profession.\nOne area that needs to be developed is our practice wisdom. We need to hear about the research of youth workers on the coalface. What is working? What didn\u2019t work? Where are the gaps? What do we need to do to take the profession forward? These questions and many more will be best answered not by the academics who are removed from practice, but through the collective wisdom of those youth workers completing the hard yards day in and day out.\nAt Ultimate Youth Worker we have always tried to shine a light from those at the coalface to those in academia. We have been quoted in academic journal articles, spoken at conferences and worked with hundreds of youth workers to get the knowledge of the coalface worker to the rest of the sector. Our commitment to youth work research has never been stronger.\nWe are currently getting some research out about the state of youth mental health training for youth workers in Australia and New Zealand. Our research is shining a light on the gap between current youth worker training in mental health and the needs of our young people. This youth work research has come out of the hundreds of supervision and training sessions we have run over the past three years where youth workers have been ignorant of the basics of mental health.\nResearch is one of the things which give a profession credence. We need to have more research from the trenches to inform our sector. What will you bring to the table?\nYouth work needs to rid itself of its inferiority complex.\nOver the years no other issue in youth work has bugged me more than the discussions about how we need to become more like other professions. For the most part it is a discussion about what we are not as youth workers. It says what we do not do. It says we are inferior to other professions.\nWe hear it every day as youth workers. Our clients are referred to \u201cprofessionals\u201d because we aren\u2019t trained enough, aren\u2019t qualified enough or just plain don\u2019t know enough. These professionals look upon us with the same condescension that people aim at well meaning children who are overly excited. They tell us how much we don\u2019t know about young people from their perspective and why they are indispensable to our young people. And we look at them with wide doe eyes and a knowing glance that says they are right. We are inferior.\nThe academy has told us for years that youth work as it stands is inferior.\nOur colleagues have told us how inferior our work is.\nWe have told ourselves how inferior we are.\nFor youth work as a profession to take the next step we first need to stop comparing ourselves to others. Comparison leads to inferiority. We are a stand alone profession with our own knowledge base and a rocking way of supporting young people that others can only dream about.\nInferiority only comes if we allow it\u2026 so lets stop it.\nYouth workers: write, do or do both.\nThe most well known youth workers world wide are often one of two types of people. They are either the academics who write something worth reading or they are the youth worker who does something spectacular that others write about.\nThe academics are trying to write something that the youth worker on the ground can use to improve practice or develop the sector as a whole. They bring research and practice together within the pages of journals and textbooks and ask the reader to implement their ideas. Academics write to keep their jobs. They write to expand their influence. They write to frame the work of the youth worker on the ground.\nThe youth worker on the other hand is developing new programs, working with those delinquent young people the news is always talking about and living out action research. They are learning through doing. They are building relationships. They are developing a set of practice skills that are fluid and framed. They are the ones the rest of us look up to because they just seem to do the job so well.\nThese people either write something worth reading or do something worth writing. However I propose another group. Those who write something worth reading and do something worth writing about. There is a growing number of youth workers taking to writing about the ins and outs of this profession called youth work. They are doing some amazing work and writing about it. They blog, podcast and video their thoughts. They write for the common youth worker and the academic. They speak from the heart and from the data.\nWhere do you fit on the spectrum? Leave us a comment below.\nBe transparent!!!\nI was watching an Australian political review program this evening and as I was watching I realised something much more profoundly than I ever had before. When people actively try to hide their business from others we don\u2019t trust them. When governments say they have policy initiative but then do not show them, we don\u2019t trust them. When military say that they are doing things by the book then don\u2019t show their video of their work, we don\u2019t trust them. When corporations use their considerable funds to silence critics, we don\u2019t trust them.\nIn youth work I have heard a number of my colleagues over the years say that they could not speak about the type of work they do because of confidentiality issues. Let me just say BOLLOCKS!!! I have heard of organisations who actively seek to limit their public accountability. Currently there are a number of inquiries in Australia into lack of transparency of organisations and in a number of these organisations youth workers have key roles.\nTo save the reputation of our profession and it workers we need more transparency. In our individual work and in our organisations we must come to the understanding that if we want to have complete respect of our work people need to understand what we do.\nBe transparent in all you do. It will get on peoples goat\u2026 But it will help you to have a successful career.",

        "raw_content": "\u2018Roseanne\u2019 Is The Rare Revival To Embrace Its New Era\nGreat TV shows tend to be the product of a specific time in the lives of three groups: the characters on the show, the people making it, and the people watching it. When shows get brought back from the dead years later, one or more of those groups is different, yet too many shows in the recent flood of revivals try to go about business as usual, assuming the old material will work no matter the context, when instead the new episodes at best come across as pale imitations of what these shows used to be.\nThe handful of revivals that have creatively justified their existence have tended to be the ones that acknowledge those changes. The first revival season of The X-Files plowed forward as if no time had passed, stumbling badly along the way, but the season that just wrapped up last week mostly returned to early form by telling stories explicitly about Mulder and Scully being much older, and the world much scarier than the one where they first went looking for the truth that was out there.\nOf all the classics being resurrected, few return with as many changes to the three key groups as Roseanne does. The original run was an all-timer onscreen, but tumultuous off it: a blunt, thoughtful, and bittersweet story of a blue collar family barely scraping by, inspired by the life of a star who fought constantly with the people in charge of the show until she took charge herself, for good and for ill (that final season where Roseanne won the lottery in particular). It\u2019s been almost 21 years to the day since the original series finale, and in that time Roseanne Barr has very publicly gone through a lot of changes, the country is more bitterly divided than ever on many of the issues the original series raised, and all the members of the Conner family are two decades older. Wonderful as so much of \u201980s and \u201990s Roseanne was, few revivals have had higher potential for feeling wildly out of step in the current environment.\nTAGSRoseanne",

To specify a line segment, we must be given two points on a line; these two points are called the endpoints of the line segment. We use the endpoints of a line segment to name the line segment. For instance, if the endpoints of a line segment are the points A and B on a line, then the line segment is named line segment AB.\nWhat is the difference between a line segment and a line?\n~ A line is a straight geometric figure whose length can be extended infinitely in opposite directions. A line segment is made up of two points on a line and all the points between them. Therefore, a line segment is a portion of a line. Moreover, a line has infinite length, whereas a line segment has finite length.\nLook at your list of examples from question 2 in the previous section. Are these examples of lines or of line segments?\n~ Answers may vary. It is likely that the examples listed in question 2 in the previous section are all examples of line segments because they likely have finite length. Some common examples of objects that can be modeled by line segments are pens, rulers, and straws.\nPre-requisite Concepts Students should have a general understanding of the following terms: definition, collinear, and line.\nKey Vocabulary definition, collinear, line",

Following a positive meeting with Citizens Commissioners, SYP members decided that joining the Citizen Commissioner programme might be a great new project for former members of SYP on which to focus their skills and enthusiasm.\nOur CEO, Chris Parker, said, \u201cThe Young Commissioner element of our Citizens Commissioner programme will provide an exciting new platform for this committed and talented group of young people to continue to volunteer and shape their community. We are so pleased to be able to engage these young people, who are passionate about their local community, and enable them to use their knowledge and experience to influence public sector decision making that affects their own generation .\u201d\nThe group will join other Young Commissioners and have the opportunity to lead the rebranding of the Youth-focused side of Citizens Commissioning, to decide on their own governance, and to ensure the long term sustainability of the whole programme.\nHarry Hamilton, member of Sutton Youth Parliament since January 2015 and recently elected as Deputy Member of Youth Parliament, said, \u201cI think it\u2019s great that SYP is teaming up with the Young Commissioners. With the Council cutting funding for SYP, it is important that we team up with great organisations such as Citizens Commissioners to ensure the voices of young people are properly heard\u201d.\nIf you\u2019re between 12 and 18 and are interested in representing your peers on Borough-wide decisions that affect you, why not consider becoming a Young Commissioner? You don\u2019t need to have lots of experience; you just need to love your community.

        "title": "How We Dealt with Our Infertility - Verily",
        "raw_content": "Mary Beth Cormier\nI distinctly remember that first time I took a pregnancy test. One month into marriage, I was so full of hope that we would have that honeymoon baby. I giggled as I envisioned a tiny version of my husband, Dan, and me in nine months. We were so in love, it only seemed natural that a baby would be the next step. Everyone else seemed to get pregnant when they wanted, so why not hope for us?\nOuch. Well, there was always next month. Little did I know that would be the first of countless negative tests for the next several years. My husband was relieved to have another month to adjust to our new life together with just the two of us, but I had a nagging feeling that we would have a long road ahead. Yet I was used to meeting all my goals if I worked hard enough. So, as time passed, I took infertility as a challenge.\nOur challenge with infertility dramatized our differences.\nThe months went by. The longing for a child grew more intense. That first Christmas was hard. Mother\u2019s Day was even harder. My arms and heart ached. I longed to smell sweet baby hair, hear happy coos, to sing and rock our sweet little one to sleep. I felt like a failure to myself and my husband. \u201cIt will happen when it\u2019s meant to,\" Dan reminded me each month. As well-meaning as his patience was, his demeanor boiled my blood.\nThat first year had gone by. I wanted to just be a happy newlywed, but I was meeting constant failure for the first time in my life, and I wasn\u2019t sure how to handle it. It wasn\u2019t long before this turned into battling depression over this grief I had yet to fully process.\nSo, I decided to take it up with my doctor. I was taken aback by the matter-of-fact attitude. No words to comfort my stifled sorrow, no resource suggested for counseling. I wasn\u2019t even asked if I was okay. I was told that my husband needed to produce a sample and was sent home with a specimen cup. I brought it to Dan and felt so vulnerable I just sobbed. We never took that first test and it was another year before we gathered the courage to see a different doctor.\nI tried to hide my true feelings from Dan. I didn\u2019t want him to see how much I was suffering because I didn\u2019t want to send the message that he wasn\u2019t enough for me. I tried to hide the negative tests, but he always seemed to find out that I had taken one. Each time he would gently comfort me and remind me that our time would come some day, but each month I felt even more of me die inside.\nI no longer wanted to spend time with my friends and family, as many were married and already had children. I felt sidelined while listening to the many comparisons of births and babies. I didn\u2019t even want to go to church on Mother\u2019s Day because all the lucky women were called forward and applauded while I remained seated, broken and rejected. I was full of anger and could not understand why women who didn\u2019t want children would easily getting pregnant, but I couldn\u2019t have the child I so longed for.\nI often times took it out on Dan. I would yell at God and then fall to the ground in a fit of tears. It was hard on my husband. He wished for a child, but even more, he wished he could have his happy wife back.\nIt became exhausting.\nBy the second year, we were pulling out all the stops. So many doctor appointments. All the specialists were at least an hour drive away, the farthest was four hours. Test after test, charting, a litany of medications, a strict diet and exercise regimes, daily ultrasounds\u2014it wasn\u2019t long before I felt like a pincushion. PCOS, low endorphin syndrome, endometriosis, low progesterone and estrogen, poor mucus quality, a tilted uterus. All these combined with Dan\u2019s low counts and low testosterone made for a very low probability of conception. We tried praying all the recommended prayers, considered some medical interventions, homeopathic remedies, physical therapy, chiropractic, and all the foods and supplements that promised to work magic.\nEven our marital intimacy was taken over by a schedule of when to do the deed per doctor\u2019s orders\u2014lessening the romance and increasing the stress. The physical, emotional, and financial burden of this certainly took its toll on us.\nThrough all of this though, my husband remained calm\u2014but instead of taking comfort in this, it only frustrated me that the situation didn\u2019t bother him more. At the same time, it frustrated him that it bothered me so much. He was never big on sharing his feelings, and was content with our lives, as they were. Even now, it&apos;s still very difficult to talk about it together to this day without bringing up very raw emotions. He always reminded me that his main goal was to be married, having children would be icing on the cake. Having such contrasting viewpoints was becoming a challenge.\nIt was no help that my body went through a physical reminder of infertility each month, with pain, nausea, blood, major hormonal shifts, and a feeling of emptiness. I felt alone.\nIt challenged us to turn toward each other.\nEven though this was often painful to discuss, we finally overcame these challenges by practicing empathy and intentionality in our marriage. I needed validation that my grief was justified. He needed validation that he was enough for me. After some time, and some open dialogue, we took action to support each other by going to each other\u2019s doctor appointments and being there for each other during the countless lab draws, ultrasounds, and even surgery. He would even fight with the insurance company to cover whatever the next medication would be because I was losing momentum.\nAmidst all of this pain and heartache though, I think one of the most important things we did was to keep on living. Every day we committed to turning toward one another, putting in that extra effort to prioritize our relationship and our romance. We took those vacations. We made time for date nights. Sometimes, it felt as though we were running a marathon together. Occasionally, one of us would want to give up, but the other was always there to move us both forward.\nIf I were to give advice to my newlywed self, I would have probably told myself the same thing my husband always tried to communicate: \u201cBreathe. Enjoy life. Don\u2019t fret. It\u2019s beautiful to be a family of two.\"\nYet, if I\u2019m being honest, that wasn\u2019t what I wanted to hear at the time. It really was hard. I had to identify my expectations and grieve them and find joy in our relationship and life together as it was. So for other couples who are struggling with infertility or any major hardship life throws at you, my thoughts? Lean on each other. Listen, without offering advice. Verbalize validation of feelings. Make time for fun. Seek out people who are also struggling with infertility, and make friends.\nOver the years we learned that expectations can rob us of our joy. As I slowly released the reins and took solace in prayer\u2014praying mostly to find joy again\u2014I found peace. My inner peace flowed into my marriage and brought healing to both of us. It was then that we were ready to start our adoption journey\u2014a journey that has since been wholly rewarding.\nWe have been married for more than eight years. I have never had a positive pregnancy test. Yet, I am so grateful and proud to have shared this journey with a man who has stuck by my side, negative test after negative test, while always sustaining a positive outlook.\nInfertilitymarriageMarriage Conflictmarriage advice\nGentlemen Speak: 3 Things Guys Find Hard About Marriage, and How to Handle Them\nMarriage is just the beginning of the romantic journey, not the fairytale ending.\nWhy Couples Can Have the Same Old Fights and Still Have a Rock Solid Marriage\nYou don't have to be 'conflict-free' to be happy.",

        "title": "Best Painting Companies Near Me Cuba City | Top Local Painters",
        "raw_content": "Best Painting Companies Near Me Cuba City\nDo you own a Cuba City home that has not been painted in several years? Perhaps you would like to improve its outward appearance. You might be selling your house, and you need to enhance the curbside appeal, motivating people to consider purchasing your home. You may also have a need for a painting contractor that can paint the interior of your home as well. It may have been decades since the last time that the inside of your home was painted, and you simply do not have time to do this on your own. If you are interested in finding quality Cuba City painting contractors, ones that can do both interior and exterior painting jobs, here are the best ways to locate painting contractors near me that will provide you with the best services at a better than average cost.\nThe first place that you should start searching for Cuba City painting contractors that can paint your home is on the web. Most of the professionals that offer this service in communities will have a website showcasing what they are able to do. They will have examples of homes they have painted recently, both interior and exterior jobs. This will give you a general idea of the type of work they are able to do. Second, you can also see how much they charge for the services if it is posted, and if not, there will always be contact information. You can then contact these businesses by phone, or by email, to get a quote or estimate on how much it will cost for the painting job that you need them to accomplish.\nOnce you have found several Cuba City painting contractors near me, you will need to evaluate them. The first step is getting an estimate. These professionals will send a representative of their company out to your location. They can take measurements, and then provide you with a quote on how much it will cost to paint either the interior or exterior of your home. The second step is to consider the reputation of these contractors. You may have family members or friends that have recently used one of these professionals. If they were very happy with the final result, as well as the price, these are top candidates for your business. The other way to evaluate these companies is to find information about them on the web. You could begin with the Better Business Bureau. You will also see reviews and comments about local businesses on the Internet, comments made by actual customers that will state whether they were happy with, or dissatisfied with, the work that was provided. This information can prove invaluable as you are trying to make your final choice.\nThere are a few other things to consider before hiring one of these Cuba City local painting contractors. First, you need to consider when they are able to start. If you need to have this done in the next few weeks, and they cannot start for a couple months, these are the companies that you will not want to consider at all. You should also consider what type of painting jobs they are willing to do. Some of them only do the exterior of homes. Others may only do interior painting jobs. If you need to have them do both, this will limit your choices even more, helping you to make the right choice when choosing one of these contractors.\nThere are a couple different ways that you can search for and find Cuba City painting contractors that will provide you with affordable rates on painting your house. They might be advertising in the local paper, providing their services at a discount for those that are willing to work with them in the near future. Once they have their quota of clients, the special will be gone, so you need to act as quickly as possible if you see these businesses offering discount services. Another way is to work with a business that will give you a discount because you are having them paint both the interior and exterior of your home. These companies are often motivated to provide substantial discounts for those that allow them to do both jobs.\nThe final choice that you make is one that you will know is the right choice because this company will have four favorable factors. First of all, they will offer discounted prices for the painting jobs that they will do for you. Second, they will have longevity in the community, perhaps providing their painting services for many years or decades. Third, they will be able to do both interior and exterior painting on your home, preventing you from having to search for yet another company. Finally, they will be willing to work around your schedule so that you can have your home painted when you want to have this done. All four of these factors are indications that you will have chosen the right Cuba City company for the job.\nThere are likely many painting contractors near me that you will be able to use. In a large city, there could be several, prompting you to do a substantial amount of research. Even if there are only two or three in your smaller community, there will be one that will stand out. You will have chosen one of the best and most affordable residential painting contractors in my area, providing you with an estimate on the cost per square foot that will likely be below the average for the typical cost of these projects. Now that you know how to get the best deals from local Cuba City painting contractors, you should start requesting estimates today. In no time at all, you will have the interior or exterior of your home painted, or even both, by these professional painting contractors near me that can help you out.\nAuthor wpenginePosted on September 28, 2017 September 28, 2017 Categories Painters WisconsinTags Average Cost To Paint A Room in Cuba City, Cost To Paint Exterior Of House in Cuba City, Cost To Paint Interior Of House in Cuba City, Exterior Painting Contractor in Cuba City, House Painting Estimate in Cuba City, House Painting Quotes in Cuba City, How Much To Paint A House in Cuba City, Interior Painting Cost in Cuba City, Interior Painting Cost Per Sq Ft in Cuba City, Interior Painting Estimate in Cuba City, Painting Cost Per Square Foot in Cuba City",

        "raw_content": "Meet the Northern Districts Vet Hospital Staff\nDanielle Wille\nDanni joined the team at Northern Districts Vets in 2017. She previously worked as a Vet in Castle Hill and enjoys many different aspects of veterinary work although has a particular interest in animal behaviour and welfare.\nDanni grew up on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. She has been the pianist for her local ballet school since 2008 and is passionate about music and languages. She also plays the flute in the Australian Veterinary Orchestra.\nIn her free time, when not practicing her musical instruments, you\u2019ll find her bushwalking or at the beach with her cocker spaniel Cleo, and cuddling her silver tabby Misty.\nPractice Manager/Head Veterinary Nurse\nJess Fish\nJess joined the Northern Districts team in 2017 after volunteering for over a year at Forest Animal Hospital. Jess has just completed her certificate in Veterinary Nursing. Whilst studying Jess was busy working at Dog Rescue Newcastle as a foster carer and Area Co-ordinator as well as working as a part time Hotel Manager.\nShe had always had a passion for animals and to her parents dismay would always bring home any stray dog she found growing up. If she couldn\u2019t find the owners she would usually convince a friend or family member to adopt.\nJess loves all creatures great and small and she hopes to participate in volunteer travel programs and work with different species throughout the world.\nJess loves to spend time with her dog Astral and her rabbit Socks. When she is not hanging out with her pets she can be found at the beach or with her head buried in a good book.\nDani Gane\nDani is a young, vibrant and passionate nurse who has just completed her Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing. Dani initially started as a volunteer in 2014 and showed great promise, so not long after this she joined the team. Prior to working at Northern Districts Vets, Dani worked at the Animal Welfare League at Ingleside whilst completing her work experience at Forest Animal Hospital.\nAt home, her fur family consists of three cats; Lola, Pixi and Kyra, and Sir Humphrey; the king rabbit.\nDani has a big heart and thrives when nurturing our sick patients back to health. She looks forward to continuing her career as a vet nurse and is always willing to lend a helping hand to any animal who crosses her path.\nNatalie Ratanawongprasat\nInspired by her two dogs, Max & Milly, Natalie is currently studying to become a veterinarian at the University of Sydney. She loves all animals especially the cute and cuddly ones. While she is still learning how to make them feel better when they get sick, she is working as a casual vet nurse/receptionist at NDV so that she can gain the skills necessary to one day help our furry friends!\nBagherra, affectionately known as Baggie, came to us in 2016. He was dumped in a crate one day on our doorstep. And since that day he has been a part of the NDV family.\nBaggie may look like a grumpy cat but he is the most sweetest and affectionate boy who loves being with his humans, especially when they have food!\nHis favourite pastimes include eating, hissing at dogs and laying on the computer when his minions are trying to work. He also enjoys short walks in the garden and head pats.\nHe loves attention so when you see him around give him a head scratch and he will be your best friend!\nRIP Mikey (aka \u201cPrince Michael of Narraweena\u201d)\nPractice Cat\nMikey was brought to the practice many years ago after he was hit by a car. Sadly, we recently had to say goodbye to our much loved master and friend due to his old age. During his 21 years he made many of us grow, laugh and cry. He had many admirers and friends who often stopped by just to give him a pat. We will miss his demanding ways. RIP our special boy, Mikey.",

        "raw_content": "Carla Sue and guide Wind at the Big Buddha Temple.\nOur current trip on the Regent Seven Seas Explorer began when we departed Beijing, China on December 29. We have covered a good bit of sea since that time, and are currently in Ko Samui, Thailand. Located in the Gulf of Thailand, it is surrounded by about 60 other islands, which compose the Ang Thong Marine National Park and include other tourism destinations.\nThe island was probably first inhabited about 15 centuries ago and settled by fishermen from the Malay Peninsula and Southern China. It appears on Chinese maps dating back to 1687 under the name Pulo Cornam. The name Samui is mysterious in itself. Perhaps it was an extension of the name of one of the native trees, mui, or from the Malay word Saboey, which means \u201csafe haven.\u201d Ko is the Thai word for \u201cisland.\u201d\nKo Samui has a population of about 55,000. Their tourist industry and exports of coconut and rubber drive their economy. It was a rather isolated community, disconnected from the mainland of Thailand, until the 20th century, and roads were not built on the island until the 1970s.\nWe anchored promptly at 8 a.m. This means that we needed to go ashore in a tender boat rather disembarking directly to the dock. In Ko Samui, the ship\u2019s tenders are not used. Instead local ferry boats, much bigger than the ship has, take passengers to shore. The trip takes 20 minutes and is pleasant.\nRegent has a \u201clanding area\u201d on shore any time guests are tendered in and it is quite nice. There is a little tent to protect guests from the sun and they have huge insulated urns of both cold water and fruit punch.\nSix different shore excursions plus independent travel for those who couldn\u2019t make up their minds were offered. We had selected a six-hour excursion called \u201cKo Samui Discovery\u201d because it offered a lot of variety, including lunch at a restaurant off the ship. The ship\u2019s food is wonderful, but it is always fun to take a chance at a place you will never see again.\nThe procedure is for guests to surrender their tour tickets in the ship\u2019s theater and receive a small ticket indicating which bus or coach you are to be in when you get outside. Once your bus number is called, you proceed to security where they swipe your room key card into the system and this lets them know that you are off the ship. On return, they swipe you back in again.\nWhen we reached the shore in the tender we were greeted by a nice young man named Wind, who was to be our guide for the entire excursion. He was accompanied by our driver, and we proceeded to a wonderfully appointed eight-person coach with leather upholstery, fringe and mirrors everywhere as is the Asian style, plus an air-conditioner that deserved a prize for efficiency and dependability.\nOur first stop was a site called Big Buddha 15 minutes away. And this Buddha was big. Covered in gold, it dominates a monumental site sitting on the top of a mound and is reached by climbing a staircase with a colorful, striking dragon design leading up to the platform area on which the Buddha sits.\nA monkey being trained to spin coconuts until their ripe stem breaks when it is 75 feet up in a coconut tree.\nStatue of Guanyin, goddess of mercy and compassion, at Wat Plai Laem Temple.\nThe Sanctuary of Truth wooden pavilion, which began construction in 1987 at Pattaya, Thailand.\nAround Big Buddha\u2019s base is a courtyard and vendor area where religious artifacts, clothing and souvenirs are sold. There are also food stalls and small restaurants in which to enjoy a snack or a meal. That said, this is considered a sacred place, so visitors are admonished by large signs to dress politely. Shoulders must be covered, trousers or long shorts must be worn, and no beachwear at any time!\nAfter a trip up and down the steps and a stop for a small dish of passion fruit sorbet, we were off to Plai Laem Temple.\nWat Plai Laem is a Buddhist temple compound featuring a white 18-arm figure of Guanyin, the goddess of mercy and compassion. The temple is fairly new but the artists who developed it applied techniques that are several centuries old.\nThe next stop was one of what must be dozens of elephant camps on the island. At this stop, those who cheered when Ringling Bros. Circus gave up displaying elephants would not have been happy. That said, we had a nice time and the elephants appeared to be well cared for. Two of them played soccer with one of the men from the audience. Well, the elephants kicked the soccer ball and the human tried to block it from getting into the net. Then two ladies and a man, individually, got elephant massages by lying on a rug on the ground with another rug on top and having the elephant bounce its trunk on their back. The man lay on his back and got a more risqu\u00e9 massage. You get the point. Most everyone was laughing.\nThen, we were off to Nora Beach Resort for lunch, which was delicious. This was followed by a trip to see monkeys who were being trained to scale coconut trees, select the ripe coconuts, spin them on their stem until they broke off and let them fall to the ground. At this stop, we were offered some coconut oil to rub on dry skin. It works, and you can cook with it too.\nFinally, we went to a rubber tree plantation where we witnessed the gathering of liquid latex and its refinement into rubber mat shaped pieces which are then shipped off for commercial use. It was moderately interesting.\nIt had been a long day and our guide, Wind, got us back to the dock to take the shuttle \u201chome\u201d to our suite. We had time for a hot shower and a 30-minute nap before a spectacular barbeque on the ship\u2019s top deck began.\nThese barbeques are really food festivals. There is so much to choose from that you almost lose your appetite looking at the buffet, which stretches all the way around the swimming pool!\nOvernight, we sailed to Laem Chabang, the closest port to Bangkok. We elected to stay close by and not take the almost four-hour trip each way to Bangkok. Instead, we took an excursion that focused on The Sanctuary of Truth wood pavilion, a staggeringly spectacular hand-carved structure that almost cannot be described.\nStanding 300 feet tall, it was first started in 1981 and financed by Mr. Lek and Mrs. Prapai Viriyahbhun, and is not anticipated to be finished until 2050, if ever. Promotional literature describes The Sanctuary of Truth as featuring meaningful teachings by the philosophers in the ancient days and moral ethics through the works of art.\nUncounted laborers work inside the structure and add completed carved pieces to the structure, which is held together without nails. At least 100 or more other skilled wood sculptors, mostly women, work under covered tent-like structures carving new pieces in the finest detail. No one explained to us whether or not there is a master plan for the completed work that currently covers several acres overlooking the sea-side site.\nIt\u2019s worth it to pay a visit. It\u2019s the pride of the Thai nation.\nWe are going to be here for another day and so our next touring objective is Sriracha Tiger Zoo, where we have been before. I just can\u2019t resist the opportunity to once again bottle-feed a tiger kitten. VT\nThe Sanctuary of Truth.\nCarla Sue up close to some of the fantastic carvings at the Sanctuary of Truth.\nBaby elephant at the elephant camp at Ko Samui, Thailand.\nBig Buddha Temple at Ko Samui, Thailand.\nOrdination Hall for new monks at Plai Laem Temple in Thailand.",

It has been a journey full of surprises, long overdue, with a certain destination but less certainty about what the journey would feel like to experience. I have met new people, visited new places and enjoyed the most amazing range of dishes from fine dining to street food. I now know that vegans travel and make the effort to experience a wide range of eating opportunities. Every dish has been carefully thought out and presented with a lot of pride. I have been asked the questions\u2026 What do you miss most? and\u2026What was hardest thing to give up? The simple and completely honest answer to both is NOTHING. In fact, I now eat a far better and more interesting range of foods than ever before.\nI have noticed those around me are interested in what I eat and are keen to sample everything so I think that others are starting to consider their own positions about exploring veganism. At an age where so much of life is established it is great to have a new adventure to begin. I am excited as I look forward to 2017 and the start of \u2018WE ARE ONE\u2019 the new lifestyle business that Sandy will shortly launch. I am sure that it will be a valuable addition to the wider community and an opportunity for him to share his core beliefs with others.\nI hope that the festive season brings peace, hope, joy and love to all living things.",

However, they recommended that the State Attorney's Office continue to investigate Superintendent of Schools Mary Beth Jackson to determine if sufficient evidence exists for the filing of criminal charges.\nNumerous allegations and complaints against Kenwood Elementary School teacher Marlynn Stillions prompted the Grand Jury's investigation, according to the report. The complaints alleged that she kicked, tripped, grabbed, withheld food from and sprayed students with a vinegar solution. The person who received the bulk of the abuse was Noah Perillo, a child with autism, according to the Grand Jury. Because of this, they were tasked with reviewing the operations, policies and procedures of the OCSD, they said.\nThe report states that the Grand Jury returned a no true bill because they found the arrests of four people was sufficient. Those arrests include Stillions, Arden Farley, an Equity Specialist who worked with OCSD, former Kenwood Elementary principal Angelyn Vaughn and the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources, Stacie Smith.\nThe Grand Jury found that the internal investigation wasn't properly handled by Stillions, Farley, Vaughn or Smith.\n\"At no time during the investigation process or review were the allegations of abuse against Ms. Stillions ever reported to the Department of Children and Families. Florida Law requires that any person who knows or who has reasonable cause to suspect that a child is abused must report such knowledge or suspicion to the Department,\" the report reads.\nWhen the child's father learned there was a report about the alleged abuse, the school district initially told him the report didn't exist, the report states. He sparked the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office and the State Attorney's Offce investigation after he received a redacted report and presented it to the authorities, according to the report.\nMoving forward, they recommend employee training, policy changes, changes to the procedures related to equity investigations and further investigation into OCSD Superintendent of Schools Mary Beth Jackson.\nThe Grand Jury wrote that they are most concerned by Superintendent Jackson's behavior. They expressed disappointment that, despite multiple requests, she chose not to appear before the Grand Jury.\n\"As the elected Superintendent of Schools, Ms. Jackson is responsible for the safety and well-being of 30,000 students. We find that she has failed to fulfill that obligation. We further find that she has not satisfied her obligations as an elected official,\" the Grand Jury wrote.\nState Attorney Bill Eddins released the no true bill and report of the decision, which was made on February 20th, to the media Thursday. We have embedded the full report for you to view below.",

        "title": "Music: Country legend Hal Ketchum is still going strong - Entertainment & Life - The Wellesley Townsman - Wellesley, MA",
        "raw_content": "Music: Country legend Hal Ketchum is still going strong\nHal Ketchum is happily semi-retired in the Austin, Texas, area, so his swing through New England this weekend is a rare treat for fans of his genre-crossing music. As his heyday atop the country charts in the 1990s proved, Ketchum's music is a hybrid with plenty of folk, rock and soul elements coloring his music.\nKetchum is playing Saturday night at the Spire Center in downtown Plymouth. Ketchum's short tour includes a stop at New Haven's Cafe Nine tonight (Friday), and a show at The Iron Horse in Northampton on Sunday.\nKetchum is well known as part of the Texas musical firmament, but the irony is that he was born and grew up in the Greenwich, N.Y., area. His first forays into music came as the drummer in a rhythm and blues band, Dean and the Oriental Cha Chas.\n\"My friend Dean was the bassist, and all I can say is that we got through it,\" Ketchum said, this week, from his Austin-area home. \"I've always been interested in all kinds of music, anything that can expand my mind.\"\nThe most significant event in Ketchum's early years was his move to Austin in 1981. By then he'd stepped away from performing and had crafted a solid career as a cabinet maker. But he still loved music, and he began frequenting a local bistro, Gruene Hall, where some of the regular performers included Jerry Jeff Walker, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Guy Clark, Ray Wylie Hubbard, and sometimes even Willie Nelson. Before long Ketchum was playing a guitar and writing his own songs.\n\"I found my calling at Gruene Hall, no doubt about that,\" said Ketchum. \"Jerry Jeff Walker became a great friend of mine, just very supportive in those early years, and a terrific, stand-up guy. Another good friend who helped me was Ray Wylie Hubbard, but there were a lot of singer-songwriters there at the time, and they were all good. Everyone was very supportive, and it was a lot of fun.\"\nKetchum became good enough himself to earn a recording deal with the small indie Texas label Watermelon Records, and 1988 saw his debut, \"Threadbare Alibis.\" It didn't sell a lot, but it caught the attention of some Nashville music people, and soon Ketchum had offers to move to Music City.\n\"That first album was kind of done nip-and-tuck,\" Ketchum admitted. \"The folks at Watermelon had seen and heard me playing around Austin, and that led to them signing me. That was miraculous enough by itself.\"\nKetchum soon found himself in Nashville, and again, it was his day job that helped him get there.\n\"I was basically hanging out with this friend of mine, Senor Maguire, who was a professional photographer,\" Ketchum explained. \"I went there and built him a photo studio, so it was my cabinet-making, carpentry background that was the impetus for going. But once I got there I began performing around town, at places like the Bluebird Cafe, where I'd run into songwriters like Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt. Townes in those days was a phenomenal performer. I'd go out to places like that, and every night was like a seminar in songwriting. I learned a lot from those guys. Townes was a remarkable guy, a really fine talent in every way, and I liked him a lot.\"\n\"One thing I think Townes and Guy stressed to me was to always be true to myself,\" Ketchum added. \"Like Townes said, 'I am who I am,' and I think that's the best advice you can give someone who's trying to become a songwriter. Meeting and learning from guys like that, I've been blessed.\"\nKetchum's debut album had caught some interest in Nashville, and his local shows there helped raise his profile even more, and before long he was signed to Curb Records. His 1991 debut for them was \"Past the Point of Rescue,\" which ended up yielding three top 10 country hits, including the title cut, the vibrant \"Hearts Are Gonna Roll,\" and \"Small Town Saturday Night,\" which went to number one on the country charts.\nKetchum's 1992 album \"Sure Love\" brought with it two more chart-busting singles, including the title cut and \"Mama Knows the Highway.\" If Ketchum was finding most of his success on the country charts, his music still had that crossover appeal, with pop/rock energy, and a sort of literate lyrical style \u2013 both in the tunes he wrote and the covers he chose--that evoked folk music. His 1994 album \"Every Little Word\" had a single hit that showed his versatile style, as \"Stay Forever\" was a tune Ketchum had co-written with Benmont Tench, who most people know better as the keyboardist with Tom Petty's Heartbreakers.\nKetchum kept releasing new material every couple years or so, but he dropped off the charts as more boisterous, bro-country took over. And in 2000 he began lightening his touring schedule as the effects of Multiple sclerosis began to take a toll on his left side. By 2007, Curb somehow managed to only release his \"One More Midnight\" album in the United Kingdom, and his 2008 album \"Father Time\" ended his relationship with that label.\nDealing with all that, and a divorce from first wife Barbara, Ketchum spent a few years hibernating, by his own account, returning to Texas in 2010. But gradually he got the itch to write and play music again, and released \"I'm The Troubadour\" in late 2014 on Music Row Records, an Austin label founded by the late singer/songwriter Jimmy LaFave. Ketchum also got married again in 2015, and his relationship with ex-wife Barbara is so solid she actually helped his new bride, Andrea, pick out her wedding dress.\nWe had noted \"I'm the Troubadour\" as one of 2014's best albums, featuring a stripped down format and a more introspective Ketchum. His burnished baritone voice is still in prime shape, and the duo and trio arrangements lend an intimacy to the music that adds resonance to the lyrics. The latest album includes a re-make of \"I Know Where Love Lives,\" which he wrote for his first wife, and also a new song, \"I Shall Remain,\" that he wrote for Andrea. The album also includes \"Baby I'm Blue,\" a song about tenacity, \"Drive On,\" and a ballad examining the fate of Native Americans as America was developed, \"Trail of Tears.\"\nMusic fans coming to this weekend's shows can expect to hear some of the music from \"I Am The Troubadour,\" as well as a cross-section of his whole 11-album career. And having seen them in 2015, we can attest that guitarist Kenny Grimes, and Ketchum, provide a sterling background for the songs. There might even be a new song or two.\n\"Oh, putting our sets together is kind of hilarious, with eleven albums,\" said Ketchum with a chuckle. \"I'm getting away with murder. There are some tunes, like \"Hearts Are Gonna Roll,\" I do at every show, because of course people want to hear them. But we do them a bit different than the Nashville versions. Kenny Grimes is a wonderful guy, a great guitarist, and I take full advantage of Kenny's talents. I wrote a song recently, \"A Poke A Day,\" and if I think we can get away with it, we're definitely doing it.\"\nKetchum still has the songwriting bug, and despite some times when his time on the big stages left him feeling like he was agoraphobic (afraid of open spaces), he loves performing too.\n\"I'm just dedicated to that craft of songwriting,\" Ketchum said. \"Like my dad said, 'you can't kill a dumb-ass.' Well, that's me, and I'm going to keep singing until I can't sing anymore. I'm pretty much retired now, and I don't tour that much, but I do as much as I want, and that's all good. I still do some carpentry, helping out friends here and there. It's really good to be in control of my own career now, and around this remarkable woman I married, who supports me so completely. It's all good.\"\nSOUL BOX WINS BLUES BATTLE: We want to make note of South Shore quintet Soul Box winning this year's Battle of the Boston Blues Bands last week, which means they will represent our area in the annual International Blues Challenge in Memphis in February. Boston-area winners have a glittery history in the nationals, with people like Norwell's Susan Tedeschi, Cambridge's Michelle Willson and her Evil Gal Orchestra, Boston's Barbecue Bob Maglinte, and New Hampshire native Matt Stubbs' Band making a national name for themselves at the event. Soul Box includes Ric Naistadt (Quincy), Matt Smith (Raynham), George Howard (Brockton), Rob Megna (Brighton) and Gregg Miller (Cohasset), and they're playing locally almost every weekend.",

        "raw_content": "ALL WE HAVE IS TODAY\n\u0093Success is loving life and daring to live it.\u0094\nWe tend to think that life contains an endless amount of days. We are notorious for putting things off for tomorrow\u2026or the next day\u2026or next week. We\u2019re quick to let go of what we should hold onto, and hold onto what we should let go. We hold onto grudges we should release while letting go of moments we should keep. This is because we\u2019ve become desensitized to the gift that each day presents.\nYet at the risk of sounding cliche, no one is promised tomorrow.\nNo one is promised tomorrow.\nWhen I think of my life, and how I live each day, I do it in light of what I believe and know. I know I still have passions. I still have desires. I\u2019m not all that I want to be nor have I accomplished all that I want to accomplish. Not only do I believe, but know that there is still more to me. It\u2019s like a fire deep within me. That fire within me (and you), is called desire. Philosophers call it existential angst. This is the desire to make our lives count.\nWe approach our days with a heighten posture toward nonchalantness. We live, waiting and hoping life will happen rather than making life happen. Meandering through our days, we dismiss the beauty and wonder and importance of each moment. How many of us can look back at days, unfortunately gone by, with nothing to show for them? I know this may sound heavy, but it\u2019s the reality of our daily lives. We live life, believing that there will be an unlimited pool of other opportunities.\nEvery morning, we\u2019re presented with the gift of today. That\u2019s it. We\u2019re given an opportunity to make today count. Putting things off results in us losing valuable time. Time is our greatest asset and most valuable tool How we live each day will determine whether we lose time or actually invest it.\nThe truth is, everyday should be lived as our best day.\nBecause of this, I want to live each day, as if it were my best day. I don\u2019t want to meander through my days, allowing them to pass me by. I want to find ways to make the greatest impact on the people I interact with and the things I engage in.\nI want to wake with a sense of purpose, live the day with a sense of wonder and sleep at night with a sense of fulfillment.\nWith this in mind, I\u2019d like to share 5 things that have helped me live each day, the best way possible.\n1. Create Intention in Your Life and Find a Compelling Purpose\n\u201cIt should not be enough to have lived. We should be determined to live for something.\u201d ~Winston S. Churchill\nStop pretending like you are going to live forever. Live your life with a sense of urgency. Live your life so that every second is on purpose. Live your life so that every action you take is intentional and impactful and pushes you towards a life that feels meaningful and important.\n2. Stop Holding onto Old Grudges (a.k.a. Just Let it Go)\n\u201cHolding onto a grudge is like swallowing poison and expecting the other person to die\u201d ~David T.S. Wood\nWhatever you are holding onto, whatever keeps you up at night, whatever negative emotion has been rolling around your head for weeks\u2026Just let it go.\nIt isn\u2019t worth it and being mad about it won\u2019t change anything. If there is a burning issue relating to someone that you care about then take charge. Address the situation, confront the person, and tell them how you really feel. Speak up and address it if the other person matters to you. If the other person doesn\u2019t matter to you, take the even bigger step and drop it. Let it go. Drop them. Let them go.\n3. Do Something You\u2019re Afraid Of\n\u201cSometimes, what you\u2019re afraid of doing is the very the that will set you free.\u201d - Robert Tew\nEvery day, choose to do something that scares you. Make a bold decision right now and go do it. Your dreams are on the other side of your fears and your life will improve by leaps and bounds if you do it, even while afraid.\n4. Stay in Touch with the People You Love\n\u201cThere is nothing on this earth to be prized more than true friendship.\u201d ~Thomas Aquinas\nRelationships are what make us human. Living well, loving strong and being loved is what makes our good news, great. Don\u2019t let another day go by without you reaching out to a loved one, and expressing in whatever way, why you love them so much.\n5. Just Choose Joy\n\u201cThere is no path to joy. Joy is the path.\u201d ~Buddha\nJoy is a choice. We may not always get to choose what happens to us, but we do have the choice to be joyful. Joy transcends happiness because happiness is contingent on what happens. When we choose joy, happenstance can\u2019t determine it and won\u2019t be able to take it away. Just choose joy.\nAlright my friends, may we live today a story we\u2019d want to tell tomorrow.",

        "raw_content": "Home Fairfield Patrick Jones\u2019 Binge-Free Dad takes a personal approach to eating disorders\nPatrick Jones\u2019 Binge-Free Dad takes a personal approach to eating disorders\nWhen Patrick Jones checked into an Arizona facility for eating disorders in early 2016 for a 30-day treatment, he did not give the physical impression of someone who suffered from an abnormal relationship with food. In fact, Jones looked like the epitome of health and wellness \u2014 which is not surprising, considering that he has operated his own Stamford-based independent personal training business since 2003.\nBut while Jones\u2019 appearance offered no outward clue of a problem, his internal condition had been suffering for 15 years from an endless binge-and-purge cycle.\n\u201cOn a scale of 1 to 10, I was at a 10,\u201d he said. \u201cI would train a client in a gym and then I would go eat at a restaurant, binge and purge, and then go back to another client. And then repeat. All day long. Sometimes eight times in an hour.\u201d\nAnd the food that Jones consumed and then immediately expelled ran the gamut from nutritionally vital to unapologetically unhealthy. \u201cIt was any food,\u201d he continued. \u201cI binged on broccoli. Broccoli! It\u2019s crazy. I have a vivid memory coming home and having a binge on whatever is available, whether it was the kids\u2019 food or turkey breasts.\u201d\nPatrick Jones. Photo by Phil Hall\nJones, who is also a reiki practitioner and yoga teacher and has consulted with businesses on setting up corporate wellness programs, saw his experience in addressing and gradually overcoming his eating disorder as a story that could inspire others. He launched the food disorder consultancy called Binge-Free Dad, where he works with adults stuck in a pattern that he dubbed \u201cfood sedation\u201d \u2014 a state of eating purposely as a mechanism to avoid or dull a sense of pain. Turning off that internal switch is no mean feat, which Jones can affirm.\n\u201cI went to about 10 therapists and four or five eating centers,\u201d he said. \u201cI even saw a hypnotist. Ultimately, I had to stop running and become aware of what I was doing. You need to be aware that you have a problem and are not running from it. Those who struggle in any capacity with food are running \u2014 they isolate and eat in secret.\u201d\nAlthough Jones is a licensed nutritionist and certified eating psychology practitioner, he stressed that his consultancy is not designed as a Point A to Point B route, with clients ending their journey immediately cured. Instead, it is a gradual awakening to addressing the problems at the foundation of the disorder and the realization that a new and more positive environment is needed to maintain a healthier existence.\n\u201cThere is no Point B,\u201d he said, stating that his role is to pointing clients in the direction for solving their problems on their own terms rather than giving them specific steps to the desired results. \u201cThey have to experience it. It\u2019s an awareness. I can only open them up to find the awareness. I\u2019m not there to save them. I\u2019m there to question their thinking and ask them if it\u2019s true or not.\u201d\nDuring this past summer, Jones worked simultaneously with five clients through Binge-Free Dad on addressing the core issues surrounding their respective eating disorders. \u201cI worked with people on a level that would be at a 3, 4 or 5,\u201d he said. \u201cI try to get them to think about a new perspective and a new way of living.\u201d\nFrom his experience, Jones recognized that he needed to focus on new challenges and seek goals that would offer more emotional fulfillment than food sedation. His route took on new physical endeavors, including CrossFit training and Muy Thai martial arts, and he began posting a series of Facebook videos detailing his efforts to shed additional weight \u2014 since February, he dropped from 244 pounds to 194 pounds. However, he stressed that there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this matter. A key focus of his consulting involves gaining an understanding of his clients\u2019 motives and what they need to achieve a sense of serenity in their lives.\n\u201cAll of my clients have a degree of a similar challenge,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe problem isn\u2019t that people don\u2019t know how to work out \u2014 they have access to a gym and know how to eat nutritionally. It\u2019s the thinking that\u2019s the problem. It\u2019s not the food, it\u2019s not the motivation. The real problem is mindset. The root of the struggle starts with mindset.\u201d\nJones has fielded inquiries about his Binge-Free Dad consulting from outside of the Westchester and Fairfield County markets where he works and is planning to expand the consultancy with an online component.\n\u201cThe old school method is that I see the client, but if someone is really good at what they do, they don\u2019t need to see the person,\u201d he said. \u201cAll they want is someone they could be accountable to as a coach.\u201d\nBinge-Free Dad\nPrevious articleHealthlinkNY partners with fellow health information exchange to boost offerings, state presence\nNext articleNed Lamont: The FCBJ Interview, Part Two",

The downtown area offers excellent local shopping, with several independently owned boutiques and specialty shops. Auburn has a great selection of lovely move-in ready homes for sale and gorgeous neighborhoods for new-build homes in the Dekalb County Central United School District\nWith a population nearing 300,000, Fort Wayne is the 2nd largest city in Indiana.

Their restaurant, Joseph Decuis, is now one of Indiana\u2019s most highly awarded restaurants and they have opened two small bed and breakfasts and an event facility as well.\nAll of this development has revitalized Roanoke\u2019s downtown area, where there are lots of events and festivals including: the Farmer\u2019s Market, the Roanoke Fall Festival and Taste of Roanoke.

        "raw_content": "The hardest part is over \u2013 you\u2019ve found the love of your life. Now is the time to find the perfect engagement ring and plan a beautiful proposal. Traditionally speaking, it is the groom who picks out the engagement ring. However, with the introduction of Pinterest and Instagram, it is becoming increasingly popular for the bride-to-be to select her own ring, or at least give the groom a helping hint (or two!). Whether it be the groom or the bride-to-be who selects the engagement ring, here are some tips from our friends at Anthony\u2019s Fine Jewellery to help you choose your perfect ring.\nThe first thing you should do before you even start to look at rings is work out what you want (and can afford) to pay for your engagement ring. If you begin to look at rings out of your budget, you may find yourself falling in love with a ring that you cannot afford. This means you may end up falling in love with a ring that isn\u2019t \u2018the one\u2019.\nThe traditional guideline on what to spend on your engagement ring is three months\u2019 salary, but it is ultimately your decision guided by what you are comfortable spending.\nOnce you have worked out how much you are wanting to spend, it is time to decide on a centre stone. Traditionally, a diamond is the stone of choice, however it is becoming increasingly popular for couples to choose a coloured centre stone such as a Sapphire, Toumaline or Ruby.\nWhether you decide on a Diamond or coloured gem centre stone, it is important to discuss with your jeweller what to look for in regards to colour variations, inclusions, the cut of the stone and the size of the stone. Each of these will influence the cost of your engagement ring.\nNarrow down the shapes\nThe most popular centre stone shape is the round brilliant cut, followed by the princess cut. For the more traditional brides, a round brilliant cut will be the perfect choice. If her style is more contemporary, she may prefer a pear, cushion or marquise cut. For the bride who may want something more unique, an Emerald of Asscher Cut is the way to go.",

The use of \"city\" to refer to all of Hong Kong post-1898 and \"a fishing village\" are necessary simplifications to avoid overloading the uninitiated audience with excess subtlety.

Deryck Chan (talk) 15:40, 11 February 2013 (UTC)\nRTHK still use \"the territory\" consistently to refer to Hong Kong as a whole[1] (and occasionally \"the special administrative region\"). The Hong Kong Government also use phrases like \"territory-wide\" in their press releases.[2] There's nothing ambiguous or subtle with the word \"territory\" given HK's political and international status. As for \"fishing village\", it's difficult to agree to compromise accuracy, especially when \"dozens of villages\" carries nothing complicated or difficult to understand. 116.48.87.139 17:05, 11 February 2013 (UTC)\n\"Hong Kong\" referred to what is now Aberdeen only, before the British colonists arrived. \"City\" is used to refer to all of Hong Kong by most English-language publications when referring to Hong Kong without any political connotations. Deryck Chan (talk) 23:21, 11 February 2013 (UTC)\nThat paragraph is referring to the modern territoral extent of Hong Kong, since it isn't correct to interpret modern HK as something evolved from that original Hong Kong Village. The word \"city\" may be appropriate in some publications according to contexts. But since Wikimania and Wikimedia are targeted at an international audience, \"territory\" would be more accurate and carries no political connotation. 218.250.143.191 13:27, 12 February 2013 (UTC)\nFurther investigation has demonstrated that sources like the BBC and The New York Times use \"the territory\" too to refer to Hong Kong. 218.250.143.191 21:57, 12 February 2013 (UTC)\nCantonese version\nWhere isn't there a Cantonese version? 218.250.143.191 22:02, 12 February 2013 (UTC)\nYou're welcome to translate it yourself.

        "raw_content": "5.1 What is the future of global income inequality?\n5.2 Tackling rising inequality at the top: the role of progressive taxation\n5.3 Tax policy in a global environment: the case for a global financial register\n5.4 Tackling inequality at the bottom: the need for more equal access to education and good paying jobs\n5.5 A message from the past: let governments invest in the future\nPART V - TACKLING ECONOMIC INEQUALITY\nThe future of global income inequality is likely to be shaped by both convergence forces (rapid growth in emerging countries) and divergence forces (rising inequality within countries). No one knows which of these forces will dominate and whether these evolutions are sustainable.\nHowever, our benchmark projections show that if within-country inequality continues to rise as it has since 1980, then global income inequality will rise steeply, even under fairly optimistic assumptions regarding growth in emerging countries. The global top 1% income share could increase from nearly 20% today to more than 24% in 2050, while the global bottom 50% share would fall from 10% to less than 9%.\nIf all countries were to follow the high inequality growth trajectory followed by the United States since 1980, the global top 1% income share would rise even more, to around 28% by 2050. This rise would largely be made at the expense of the global bottom 50%, whose income share would fall to 6%.\nConversely, if all countries were to follow the relatively low inequality growth trajectory followed by Europe since 1980, the global top 1% income share would decrease to 19% by 2050, while the bottom 50% income share would increase to 13%.\nDifferences between high and low inequality growth trajectories within countries have an enormous impact on incomes of the bottom half of the global population. Under the US-style, high inequality growth scenario, the bottom half of the world population earns \u20ac4\u2009500 per adult per year in 2050, versus \u20ac9\u2009100 in the EU-style, low inequality growth scenario (for a given global average income per adult of \u20ac35\u2009500 in 2050 in both scenarios).\nThe past four decades have been marked by steeply rising income inequality within countries. At the global level, inequality has also risen sharply since 1980, but the situation more or less stabilized beginning in the early 2000s. What will happen in the future? Will growth in emerging countries lead to a sustained reduction in global income inequality? Or will unequal growth within countries drive global income inequality back to its 2000 levels? In this chapter, we discuss different possible global income inequality scenarios between now and 2050.\nThe projections of global wealth inequality presented in the previous chapter showed that the continuation of current unequal rates of growth among wealth groups would lead to a compression of the global middle-class wealth share and a further rise in wealth inequality. These projections must, however, be interpreted with great care; only China, Europe, and the United States are included in the analysis of the previous chapter given large limitations in wealth inequality data.\nFortunately, more data are available to measure income inequality, and in this chapter we present more elaborate projections of global income inequality. Before discussing the results, it is necessary to stress what can and cannot be reliably projected. As the saying goes, \u201call models are wrong; some are useful.\u201d Our projections are attempts to represent possible states of global inequality in the future, so as to better understand the role played by key determinants. The purpose of our projections is not to predict the future. The number of forces (or variables) that we consider in our analysis is limited. This makes our projections straightforward and simple to understand, but also limits their ability to predict the future. Our projections of global income inequality dynamics are based on the modeling of three forces: within-country income inequality, national level total income growth, and demographics.\nOne of the key questions we seek to address is the following: will between-country convergence\u2014that is, Asian, African, and Latin \u00adAmerican countries catching up with rich countries\u2014dominate in the future and lead to a reduction of global income inequality? Or will forces of divergence (the increase of inequality within countries) take over? Demographic dynamics are also important to take into account. Fast population growth in countries where inequality is rising, for instance, will tend to accentuate global divergence. It is difficult to say which of these forces will dominate a priori. Such an exercise can thus help us understand under what conditions different outcomes might result.\nDefining three scenarios to project global income inequality up to 2050\nThree scenarios are defined to project the evolution of inequality up to 2050. All our scenarios run up to the halfway mark of the twenty-first century; this has us looking out at a time span similar to the one that has passed since 1980\u2014the starting date of our analyses in the previous chapters. Our first scenario represents an evolution based on \u201cbusiness as usual\u201d\u2014that is, the continuation of the within-country inequality trends observed since 1980. The second and third are variants of the business-as-usual scenario. The second scenario illustrates a high within-country inequality trend, whereas the third scenario represents a low within-country inequality trend. All three scenarios have the same between-country inequality evolutions. This means that a given country has the same average income growth rate in all three scenarios. It also has the same population growth rate in all three scenarios. For estimations of future total income and population growth we turned to the OECD 2060 long-term forecasts.1 We also relied on the United Nations World Population Prospects.2\nIn the first scenario, all countries follow the inequality trajectory they have followed since the early 1980s. For instance, we know that the bottom 50% income earners in China captured 13% of total Chinese growth over the 1980\u20132016 period.3 We thus assume that bottom 50% Chinese earners will capture 13% of Chinese income growth up to 2050. The second scenario assumes that all countries follow the same inequality trajectory as the United States over the 1980\u20132016 period. Following the above example, we know that bottom 50% US earners captured 3% of total growth since 1980 in the United States. The second scenario then assumes that within all countries, bottom 50% earners will capture 3% of growth over the 2017\u20132050 period. In the third scenario, all countries follow the same inequality trajectory as the European Union over the 1980\u20132016 period\u2014where the bottom 50% captured 14% of total growth since 1980.\nUnder business as usual, global inequality will continue to rise, despite strong growth in low-income countries.\nFigure 5.1.1 shows the evolution of the income shares of the global top 1% and the global bottom 50% for the three scenarios. Under the business-as-usual scenario (scenario 1), the income share held by the bottom 50% of the population slightly decreases from approximately 10% today to less than 9% in 2050. At the top of the global income distribution, the top 1% income share rises from less than 21% today to more than 24% of world income. Global inequality thus rises steeply in this scenario, despite strong growth in emerging countries. In Africa, for instance, we assume that average per-adult income grows at sustained 3% per year throughout the entire period (leading to a total growth of 173% between 2017 and 2050).\nGlobal income share projections of the Bottom 50% and Top 1% , 1980\u20132050\nThese projections show that the progressive catching-up of low-income countries is not sufficient to counter the continuation of worsening of within-country inequality. The results also suggest that the reduction (or stabilization) of global income inequality observed since the financial crisis of 2008, discussed in Chapter 2, could largely be a short-run phenomenon induced by the shocks on top incomes, and the growth slowdown in rich countries (particularly in Europe).\nIn scenario two, future global income inequalities are amplified as compared to scenario one, as the gap between the global top 1% share and the global bottom 50% share in 2050 widens. In this scenario, the global top 1% would earn close to 28% of global income by 2050, while the bottom 50% would earn close to 6%, less than in 1980, before emerging countries started to catch up with the industrialized world. In this scenario, the increase in the top 1% income share (a positive change of eight percentage points over the 2016\u20132050 period) is largely, but not entirely, made at the expense of the bottom 50% (a negative change of four percentage points).\nScenario three presents a more equitable global future. It shows that global inequality can be reduced if all countries align on the EU inequality trajectory\u2014or more equitable ones. In this scenario, the bottom 50% income share rises from 10% to approximately 13% in 2050, whereas the top 1% decreases from 21% to 19% of total income. The gap between the shares held by the two groups would, however, remain large (at about six percentage points). This suggests that, although following the European pathway in the future is a much better option than the business-as-usual or the US pathway, even more equitable growth trajectories will be needed for the global bottom 50% share to catch up with the top 1%. Achieving a world in which the top 1% and bottom 50% groups capture the same share of global income would mean getting to a point where the top 1% individuals earn on average fifty times more than those in the bottom half. Whatever the scenarios followed, global inequalities will remain substantial.\nWithin country inequality trends are critical for global poverty eradication\nWhat do these different scenarios mean in terms of actual income levels, and particularly for bottom groups? It is informative to focus on the dynamics of income shares held by different groups, and how they converge or diverge over time. But ultimately, it can be argued that what matters for individuals\u2014and in particular those at the bottom of the social ladder\u2014is their absolute income level. We stress again here that our projections do not pretend to predict how the future will be, but rather aim to inform on how it could be, under a set of simple assumptions.\nFigure 5.1.2 depicts the evolution of average global income levels and the average income of the bottom half of the global population in the three scenarios described above. The evolution of global average income does not depend on the three scenarios. This is straightforward to understand: in each of the scenarios, countries (and hence the world as a whole) experience the same total income and demographic growth. It is only the matter of how this growth is distributed within countries that changes across scenarios. Let us reiterate that our assumptions are quite optimistic for low-income countries, so it is indeed possible that global average income would actually be slightly lower in the future than in the figures presented. In particular, the global bottom 50% average income would be even lower.\nGlobal average income projections, 1980\u20132050\nIn 2016, the average per-adult annual income of the poorest half of the world population was \u20ac3\u2009100, in contrast to the \u20ac16\u2009000 global average\u2014a ratio of 5.2 between the overall average and the bottom-half average. In 2050, global average income will be \u20ac35\u2009500 according to our projections. In the business-as-usual scenario, the gap between average income and the bottom would widen (from a ratio of 5.2 to a ratio of 5.6) as the bottom half would have an income of \u20ac6\u2009300. In the US scenario, the bottom half of the world population earn \u20ac4\u2009500 per year and per adult\u2014rising the global average income to bottom 50% income ratio of 7.9. Average income of the global bottom half will be \u20ac9\u2009100 in the EU scenario, reducing the bottom 50% to average income ratio to 3.9.\nThe gap between global average income and the average income of the bottom half of the population is particularly high in all scenarios. However, the difference in average income of the bottom 50% between the EU scenario and the US scenario is important, as well. Average income of the global bottom 50% would be more than twice higher in the EU scenario than in the US scenario at \u20ac9\u2009100 versus \u20ac4\u2009500. This suggests that within-country inequality trajectories matter\u2014and matter substantially\u2014for poverty eradication. In other words, pursuing high-growth strategies in emerging countries is not merely sufficient to lift the global bottom half out of poverty. Reducing inequality within countries is also key.\nGlobal average income projections of the Bottom 50%, 1980\u20132050\nThe scenarios point toward another crucial insight: global inequality is not bound to rise in the future. Our analysis (in Part II) of the different income inequality trajectories followed by countries showed that, if anything, more equitable growth does not mean dampened growth. This result is apparent when time periods are compared (the United States experienced higher growth in the 1950s\u20131960s when inequality was at its lowest) or when countries are compared with one another (over the past decades, China grew much faster than India, with a lower level of inequality, and the EU had a more equitable path than the United States but a relatively similar growth rate). This suggests that it is possible to pursue equitable development pathways in a way that does not also limit total growth in the future.\nWhat can governments do to prevent the rise of national and global inequality? The next and final chapters of this report discuss various policy options which need to be democratically debated, on the basis of sound and transparent economic data, if societies are to seriously address the issues raised by rising levels of income and wealth concentration. We do not attempt to resolve any of these policy debates, and nor do we claim to have the right answer as to which set of policies will be best suited to a given country given its own economic, political, social, and cultural situation. Recent research, however, points to fundamental economic issues that have not been discussed enough over the past decades. These include the role of progressive taxation and global financial transparency to tackle rising inequality at the top of the distribution, as well as more equal access to education and good paying jobs to put an end to the stagnation of incomes at the bottom. Reassessing the role of public capital to invest in the future should also, in our view, be a key component of these future discussions.\nThere has been a rise global top shares, but different countries have experienced widely different inequality trajectories. Institutional and policy changes implemented since the 1980 stand as the most powerful explanations for the different inequality trajectories.\nIncome tax progressivity is a proven tool to combat rising income and wealth inequality at the top. Tax progressivity does not only reduce post-tax inequality; it also impacts pre-tax inequality, by discouraging top earners to capture a higher share of growth via aggressive bargaining for higher pay.\nTax progressivity was sharply reduced in rich countries from the 1970s to the mid-2000s. During this period, the top marginal income tax rate in rich countries was brought from 70% to 42% on average. Since the global financial crisis of 2008, the downward trend has been halted and reversed in certain countries. Future evolutions remain, however, uncertain.\nProgressive taxation of wealth and inheritances is also a key component of redistribution. In some of the most unequal nations of the world (Brazil, South Africa, India, Russia, and the Middle East), inheritance tax is almost inexistent while the poor often face high tax rates on the basic goods they purchase.\nMore generally, tax systems are highly regressive in large emerging countries. Evidence from recent inequality trends (for example, Brazil between 2000 and 2015) suggests that progressive tax reform should be given a higher priority in the future.\nThe previous chapters of this report confirm that income and wealth inequality largely increased at the top of the distribution. The rise in inequality has been driven by the substantial growth rates enjoyed by the very top groups as compared to the rest of the distribution. A common explanation for this growth is skill-biased technological change. That is, the evolution of technology is said to have increased the relative productivity\u2014and hence the relative pay\u2014of skilled labor relative to unskilled labor, thereby increasing the demand for skilled workers. Globalization could have had a similar impact in developed countries as discussed in chapter 2.1. As we have already repeatedly stressed, there are many limitations to this purely technological explanation. First, rising income inequality is a broad-ranging phenomenon which also involves capital income and wealth dynamics, and not only the distribution of labor income. The supply of skilled labor is determined by education. That is, the expansion of education leads to a rise in the supply of skills, while globalization and technological may change increase the demand for skills. Depending on which process occurs faster, the inequality of labor income will either fall or rise. This idea has been described as the race between education and technology.4 In other words, different policies can make a large difference.\nAnother complementary explanation for rising top labor incomes is the \u201csuperstar effect.\u201d5 According to this theory, technological change and globalization have made it easier for those who make it to the top to reap a higher share of growth. For instance, recording a song has more or less the same cost today as thirty years ago, but a successful music production can now reach a much broader audience. Because international firms have become larger, managers making it to the top control a much larger business than before, and their pay has increased as a result.6 Due to the superstar effect, tiny differences in talent\u2014or sometimes in bargaining power and other attributes\u2014can translate into very large income differentials. It should be noted that these global \u201csuperstars\u201d are not necessarily more productive or talented than they were thirty years ago. They are perhaps simply luckier to have been born a few decades after their elders.\nIn any case, the problem behind these two theories\u2014education and superstar\u2014is that they cannot fully account for cross-country divergences in top income trajectories. In a comparison of top remunerations in global firms, it stands out that there are important variations across countries\u2014in particular, between the United States, Europe, and Japan. Germany\u2019s largest companies, for instance, are present in all global markets and are not less productive than their US counterparts, though CEO remunerations there are on average half as high as in the United States.7 As discussed in chapter 2.3, the rise of labor income inequality was relatively limited in Europe compared to the United States, despite similar technical change and penetration of new technologies over the past forty years in both regions.\nFor the bottom and middle parts of the distribution, the importance of training and education designed to help individuals adapt to new modes of production cannot be overlooked. Unequal access to education is likely to have played a role in the stagnation of incomes of the bottom half of the distribution in recent decades\u2014in particular, in the United States. These dynamics are discussed in the next chapter. They should, however, be distinguished from rising inequalities at the very top of the income distribution. Changes in policy and institutional contexts better account for the diversity of top income trajectories over the world. In particular, recent research shows that changes in tax progressivity have played an important role in the surge of top incomes over the past decades.\nTop marginal tax rates have strong effects on both pre- and post-tax income inequality at the top\nProgressive tax rates contribute to the reduction of post-tax income inequality at the top of the distribution via their highest marginal tax rates (that is, tax rates applicable above a certain level of income earned). Indeed, if an individual earns $2 million and if the top marginal tax rate is 50% above one million dollars, this individual will net out only $500\u2009000 on the second million. If the top marginal tax rate is 80% above one million dollars, then the earner will net out only $200\u2009000 on the second million. The reduction of inequality can be further enhanced if the public spending funded by this tax revenue is aimed at fostering equitable growth.\nOne often-neglected role of top marginal tax rates is their ability to reduce pre-tax income inequality. This can occur via two channels. The most obvious one is that when top marginal income tax rates are high, top earners have less money to save and accumulate wealth, and therefore potentially less income from capital next year. Another way to understand the impact on top income tax rates on income inequality is to focus on rich individuals\u2019 bargaining incentives. When top marginal tax rates are low, top earners have high incentives to bargain for compensation increases\u2014for instance, by putting a lot of energy into nominating the right people to the compensation committees who decide on pay packages. Alternatively, high top marginal tax rates tend to discourage such bargaining efforts.8 Reductions in top tax rates can thus drive upwards not only post-tax income inequality but pre-tax inequality, as well.\nHigher top tax rates may, however, also discourage work effort and business creation among the most talented. In this scenario, higher top tax rates would lead to less economic activity by the rich and hence less economic growth. In this case, top tax rates are not a desirable policy. In principle, there should be room to discuss these conflicting and legitimate claims on the basis of dispassionate analyses and sound data.\nPiketty, Saez, and Stantcheva (2014) have developed a theoretical model and an empirical framework taking into account these different effects.9 By using a database on CEO compensation and performance in developed countries, they conclude that bargaining elasticities are an important part of the story\u2014in particular, to understand the high rise of US CEOs\u2019 pay relative to their counterparts in Japan and Europe (with comparability established by shared corporate sector, firm size, and performance levels). By calibrating the theoretical model, they show top tax rates could rise up to 80% and be welfare-enhancing for everyone apart from the very top of the distribution.\nThe data at our disposal is still imperfect, and we certainly do not pretend that a mixture of econometric evidence and mathematical formula should replace public deliberation and political decision making on these complex issues. But at the very least, we feel that there is enough evidence to reopen this discussion about sharply progressive taxation at the very top.\nIt is also important to remember that top tax rates reached more than 90% in the United States and in the UK in the era of the 1940s to the 1970s. Such high tax rates do not appear to have harmed growth. In fact, over the past fifty years, all rich countries have grown more or less at the same rates despite very large tax-policy variations.\nFigure 5.2.1 shows the relationship between changes in top marginal tax rates and in the top 1% pre-tax income share in OECD countries, which occurred between the early 1970s and the late 2000s. The correlation is particularly strong: on average, a 2 percentage point drop in the top marginal tax rate is associated with a 1 percentage point increase in the top 1% pre-tax income share. Countries such as Germany, Spain, Denmark, and Switzerland, which did not experience any significant top rate tax cut, did not experience increases in top income shares. Conversely, the United States, UK, and Canada experienced important reductions in top marginal tax rates and saw their top 1% income shares substantially increase. This graph strongly suggests that top tax rates play a key role in moderating pre-tax top incomes. In addition, there was no significant impact on growth, suggesting again that bargaining elasticities are more important than incentive effects.\nChanges in top marginal tax rates and top income shares in rich countries since the 1970s\nA window of opportunity for tax progressivity?\nFigure 5.2.2 presents in detail the evolution of top marginal income tax rates in the United States, the UK, Germany, France, and Japan since 1900. In the five countries, there was either no personal income taxation or there was a very modest of it at the turn of the twentieth century. Income tax was then introduced, partly to finance the First World War, and top marginal tax rates were brought to very high levels in the 1950\u20131970s. (Top tax rates rose up to 94% in the United States, 98% in the UK.) Top rates were then drastically reduced from the 1970s onwards (from 70% on average in these countries to 42% on average in the mid-2000s).\nHow to account for these movements? Up until the 1970s, policymakers and public opinion probably considered\u2014rightly or wrongly\u2014that at the very top of the income ladder, compensation increases reflected mostly greed or other socially wasteful activities rather than productive work effort. This is why the United States and UK were able to set marginal tax rates as high as 80%. More recently, the Reagan/Thatcher revolution succeeded in making such top tax rate levels unthinkable, at least for a while. But after decades of increasing income concentration that has brought about mediocre growth since the 1970s, and a Great Recession triggered by financial sector excesses, a rethinking of the Reagan and Thatcher policies is perhaps underway\u2014at least in some countries.\nTop income tax rates in rich countries, 1900\u20132017\nTop marginal income tax increased in the United States, UK, Germany, France, and Japan over the past ten years. The United Kingdom, for instance, increased its top income tax rate from 40% to 50% in 2010 in part to curb top pay excesses. In the United States, the Occupy Wall Street movement and its famous \u201cWe are the 99%\u201d slogan also reflected the view that the top 1% gained too much at the expense of the 99%. Whether this marked the beginning of a new tax policy cycle that will counterbalance the steep fall observed since the 1970s remains a question. In the UK, the 2010 increase in top income tax rate was followed by slight reduction down to 45% in 2013. As we are writing these lines, the new US Republican administration and congress are preparing a major tax overhaul plan. The French government also projects to reduce tax rates on top incomes and wealth owners.\nTop inheritance tax rates were recently increased in France, Japan, and the United States, as shown on Figure 5.2.3. In Japan and in the United States, this increase halted a progressive reduction in top inheritance tax rates initiated in the 1980s. In France and Germany, top inheritance tax rates have been historically lower than in the United States, UK, and Japan. In earlier chapters of this report we described the two world wars and various economic and political shocks of the twentieth century.10 These durably reduced wealth concentration through other means than tax policy. As with the question of income tax progressivity, it is impossible to know whether this increase marks a new era of progressivity. The US tax overhaul plan plans to abolish the inheritance tax.\nTop inheritance tax rates in rich countries, 1900\u20132017\nInheritance is exempted from tax while the poor face high consumption taxes in emerging countries\nWhile the past ten years saw some increases in tax progressivity in rich countries, it is worth noting that major emerging economies still do not have any tax on inheritance, despite the extreme levels of inequality observed there. Inheritance is taxed at a particularly small rate in Brazil (at a national average of around 4%, with a maximum federal rate of 8%). In India, China, and Russia, there is no inheritance tax\u2014in contrast to rich countries (see Figure 5.2.4). In India, an 85% tax rate was in place in the 1970s and early 1980s before it was brought to 0% in 1984. One can plausibly argue that India\u2019s tax administration\u2014or even Indian society as a whole\u2014was not ready for very high top inheritance tax rates to begin with. But international evidence\u2014in particular, from developed countries\u2014suggests that a fairly progressive income and inheritance tax system can be an important component of a successful development strategy.\nTop inheritance tax rates in emerging and rich countries, 2017\nIn emerging countries, it is also noteworthy that consumption taxes can be particularly high while inheritance tax is inexistent. In Brazil, for instance, the tax rate on electricity is around 30%, and high rates also apply to many other basic goods purchased by the poor. Extreme income and wealth inequality levels are thus sustained and reinforced by a regressive tax system. On a more positive note, the absence of inheritance taxes in emerging countries suggests that there is ample room for progressive tax policies. In a country like Brazil, as shown in chapter 2.11, incomes at the bottom rose over the past decades, but that this was partly to the detriment of the middle class, whose share of national income was reduced. This situation is bound to happen when the richest do not contribute fairly to the financing of the welfare state. Indeed, additional fiscal revenues collected through newly introduced progressive inheritance taxes could be used to fund educational or health programs and provide relief for the middle class in Brazil and other emerging countries.\nAlthough the tax system is a crucial tool to tackle inequality, it also faces potential obstacles, among which is tax evasion. The wealth currently held in tax havens is equivalent to more than 10% of global GDP and has increased considerably since the 1970s.\nThe rise of tax havens makes it difficult to properly measure and tax wealth and capital income in a globalized world. Reducing financial opacity is critical to improve data on wealth and its distribution; to foster a more informed public debate about redistribution; and to fight tax evasion, money laundering, and the financing of terrorism.\nOne key challenge involves recording the ownership of financial assets. While land and real-estate registries have existed for centuries, they miss a large fraction of the wealth held by households today, as wealth increasingly takes the form of financial securities. A global financial register recording the ownership of equities, bonds, and other financial assets would deal a severe blow to financial opacity.\nLittle-known financial institutions called central security depositories (CSDs) already gather information about who owns financial assets. These data could be mobilized to create a global financial register. CSDs, however, are private actors in most OECD countries and will not transfer information to authorities in the absence of regulations compelling them to do so.\nAnother difficulty lies in the fact that most CSDs do not directly record the names of the ultimate owners of financial securities, but only the names of the intermediaries.\nHowever, technical solutions have been identified by the CSDs themselves to allow end-investor identification. Moreover, more transparent systems exist in countries like Norway and China, which suggest that end-user transparency is technically and economically feasible at the CSD and at the global level.\nMultinational corporations and wealthy individuals are increasingly using tax havens to avoid or evade taxes. Fully 63% of all the foreign profits made by US multinationals are booked in a handful of offshore financial centers\u2014Bermuda, Ireland, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Singapore, and Luxembourg\u2014where they face very low tax rates, ranging from 0% to 5%. This represents a tenfold increase since the 1980s.\nAssets worth the equivalent of 10% of world GDP are stored in tax havens by wealthy individuals. This figure rises to almost 40% in countries like Greece and Argentina, and to more than 50% in Russia, according to novel research by A. Alstads\u00e6ter, N. Johannesen, and G. Zucman.11 At the global level, tax evasion deprives governments from about \u20ac350 billion in tax revenue each year.12\nTax evasion also seriously undermines tax progressivity. Figure 5.3.1 shows the amount of taxes evaded as a share of taxes owed across the wealth distribution, in the case of Scandinavia. These statistics were produced by Alstads\u00e6ter, Johannesen, and Zucman (2017), who combine recent, massive data leaks (the \u201cPanama papers\u201d and the Swiss Leaks from HSBC Switzerland) with random audits and administrative records on income and wealth. While most of the population in advanced economies does not evade much tax\u2014because most of its income derives from wages and pensions, which are automatically reported to the tax authorities\u2014leaked data show pervasive tax evasion at the very top. The top 0.01% of the Scandinavian wealth distribution\u2014a group that includes households with more than $45 million in net wealth\u2014evades 25% to 30% of its personal taxes, an order of magnitude more than the average evasion rate of about 3%. Because Scandinavian countries rank among the countries with the highest social trust, lowest corruption, and strongest respect for the rule of law, that evasion among the wealthy may be even higher elsewhere.\nShare of taxes evaded in Scandinavian countries, 2006\nSeveral recent policy initiatives have attempted to tackle offshore tax evasion. Before 2008, tax havens refused to share any information with foreign tax authorities. In 2010, the US Congress enacted the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, which compels foreign banks to disclose accounts held by US taxpayers to the IRS automatically each year, under the threat of economic sanctions. OECD countries have obtained similar commitments from most of the world\u2019s tax havens. Apparently, tax havens can be forced to cooperate if threatened with large enough penalties.\nHowever, current enforcement efforts face important obstacles. Many tax havens and offshore financial institutions do not have incentives to provide accurate information, as they do not face large enough sanctions for non- or poor compliance. Second, a large and growing fraction of offshore wealth is held through intertwined shell companies, trusts, and foundations, which disconnect assets from their actual owners. This makes it easy for offshore banks to claim, falsely, that they do not have any European, American, or Asian clients at all\u2014while in fact such persons are the beneficial owners of the assets held through shell companies.\nAs advocated by Gabriel Zucman in recent work, a global financial register would be a powerful tool for cutting through this opacity.13 Such a register would allow tax and regulatory agencies to check that taxpayers properly report assets and capital income independently of whatever information offshore financial institutions are willing to provide. It would also allow governments to close corporate tax loopholes by enforcing a fair distribution of tax revenue globally for corporations with increasingly complex overseas operations. A global financial register could also serve as the informational basis for the establishment of a global wealth tax. The establishment of such a register would not, however, mean that ownership of assets would be disclosed to the general public. Such information could remain confidential in the same way that current income tax data is kept confidential.\nThe establishment of a global financial register could be based on the information already gathered by (mostly private) financial institutions known as central securities depositories (CSD). CSDs are the ultimate bookkeepers of the equities and bonds issued by corporations and governments. They can maintain accounts as end-investor segregated accounts\u2014which is the most transparent model, as it links an individual to an asset. Or they can maintain omnibus accounts\u2014a less transparent model, given that assets held by different investors are lumped into a single account under the name of a financial intermediary, making it difficult to identify end-investors. (See Box 5.3.1.)\nBox 5.3.1\nTowards a Global Financial Register?\nThis box draws upon Delphine Nougayr\u00e8de, \u201cTowards a Global Financial Register? Account Segregation in Central Securities Depositories and the Challenge of Transparent Securities Ownership in Advanced Economies,\u201d a working paper presented at a Columbia Law School Blue Sky workshop, April 2017.\nCentral Security Depositories as building blocks for a global financial register\nIn the modern financial system, shares and bonds issued by corporations are represented not by paper certificates but by electronic account entries. Holding chains are no longer direct\u2014that is, do not connect issuers directly with investors, but involve many intermediaries often located in different countries. At the top of the chain, immediately after the issuers, are the central securities depositories (CSDs). Their role is to record the ownership of financial securities and sometimes to handle the settlement of transactions. The clients of CSDs are domestic financial institutions in the issuer country, foreign financial institutions, and other CSDs. After the CSD participants are several other layers of financial intermediaries, and at the end of the chain, a final intermediary, often a bank, holding the relationship with the investors.\nBecause so many intermediaries are involved, the issuers of financial securities are disconnected from end-investors; public companies that issue securities no longer know who their shareholders or bondholders are. CSDs, as a part of the chain of financial intermediation, both enable and obscure this relationship. The system was not intentionally designed for anonymity but it evolved this way over time because of the regulatory complexity of cross-border securities trading. The evolution toward non-transparency was also facilitated by the fact that the topic is too technical to be affected by public opinion.\nNon-transparent accounts prevail in most Western CSDs\nThere are two broad types of accounts in the CSD world. \u201cSegregated accounts\u201d allow the holding of securities in distinct accounts opened in the name of the individual end-investors. This model thus allows transparency. The opposite model is that of \u201comnibus accounts\u201d (or in the United States, \u201cstreet name registration\u201d) where securities belonging to several investors are pooled together into one account under the name of a single account-holder, usually a financial intermediary, thereby obscuring the identity of the end-investors.\nOne of the key issues for a global financial register is that non-transparent accounting (that is, \u201comnibus accounts\u201d) prevails in most Western markets. For instance, the US CSD, the Depository Trust Company (DTC), uses omnibus accounts. In its books, the DTC identifies only brokerage firms and other intermediaries, not the ultimate owners of US stocks and bonds. \u201cOmnibus accounts\u201d also prevail in most European countries\u2014in particular, within the Euroclear and Clearstream CSDs. This makes it difficult to construct a global financial register on the basis of the currently existing Western CSDs.\nMore transparency is possible, however\nMore transparency within Western CSDs can however be envisioned. The current system creates a number of risks for the financial industry, of which it is very aware. In 2014, Luxembourg\u2019s Clearstream Banking agreed to a $152 million settlement with the US Treasury following allegations that it had held $2.8 billion in US securities through an omnibus account for the benefit of the Central Bank of Iran, which was subject to US sanctions. As a result, the securities industry discussed a number of options that could be put in place to allow greater transparency of information on end-investors. This might include discontinuing the use of omnibus accounts, introducing new covering message standards (as is done in the payments industry) or ex-post audit trails, which would enable information on the identity of the ultimate beneficiary of financial transactions to circulate throughout the chain. New technologies such as distributed ledger technology (blockchain) could also foster greater transparency.\nTransparent market infrastructures already exist today. In Norway, the CSD lists all individual shareholders in domestic companies, acts as formal corporate registrar, and reports back directly to the tax authorities. In China, the China Securities Depository Clearing Corporation Limited (\u201cChinaclear\u201d) operates a system that is fully transparent for shares issued by Chinese companies and held by domestic Chinese investors. At the end of 2015, it held $8 trillion worth of securities in custody, broadly the range of the CSDs of France, Germany, and the UK, and maintained securities accounts for ninety-nine million end-investors. Some segregation functionalities already exist within some of the larger Western CSDs (like DTC or Euroclear), which could be expanded. Many believe that segregated CSD accounting would support better corporate governance by giving greater voice to small investors. All of this suggests that more could be done within the large Western CSDs to implement greater investor transparency.\nOne key issue with using CSDs as the building brick of a global financial register is that omnibus accounts prevail in most large western markets. (The Depository Trust Company in the United States and Clearstream in Europe, for instance, operate with omnibus accounts.) However, technical solutions facilitated by developments in information technologies already exist to allow the identification of ultimate asset holders in large Western CSDs. Moreover, in certain countries such as Norway, or large emerging markets such as China and South Africa, CSDs operate through systems which allow the identification of ultimate asset owners. In short, the creation of a global financial register does not face any insuperable technical problems. (See Box 5.3.1.)\nMore equal access to education and good paying jobs is key to countering the stagnation and sluggish income growth rates of the bottom half of the population. Recent research shows that there can be enormous gaps between the beliefs evinced in public discourses about equal opportunity and the realities of unequal access to education.\nIn the United States, for instance, out of one hundred children whose parents are among the bottom 10% income earners, only thirty go to college. The figure reaches ninety when parents are within the top 10% earners.\nOn the positive side, research shows that elite colleges in the United States may improve openness to students from poor backgrounds without compromising their outcomes.\nIn rich or emerging countries, it might be necessary to set transparent and verifiable objectives\u2014together with changes in the financing and admission systems\u2014in order to equalize access to education.\nAs is now well known that inequality has risen at the top of income and wealth distributions in recent decades. However, this report also sheds light on the stagnation or sluggish growth rates of the bottom 90%, and especially of the bottom 50% of the distribution. The situation has been particularly extreme in the United States, as shown in Chapter 2.4. To a lesser extent, bottom income groups have also lagged behind the rest of the population in terms of income growth in European countries as well as in fast-growth emerging countries. To counter such dynamics, progressive income and wealth taxes are not sufficient. More equal access to education and good paying jobs is key. This chapter explores recent findings on the interaction between educational inequalities and income inequalities.\nNovel research allows us to better understand the determinants of educational inequalities and their interactions with income inequality\nTo what extent are income and wage inequality the result of a fair, meritocratic process? How do family resources determine the opportunities of their children? Publicly available data to assess these questions is still scarce in most countries around the globe. But recent research has contributed to answering the question. In particular, using US administrative data on more than fifty million children and their parents, Raj Chetty, Nathaniel Hendren, Patrick Kline, Emmanuel Saez, and Nicholas Turner were able to provide remarkable results on intergenerational mobility.14\nIntergenerational mobility, broadly speaking, refers to the link between children\u2019s economic trajectories and their parents\u2019 economic situations. In the United States, estimations show that mobility levels are low as compared to other countries: fewer than eight American children out of a hundred born in the 20% poorest families manage to get to the top 20% of earners as adults, as compared to twelve in Denmark and more than thirteen in Canada. Another powerful way to illustrate the extent of educational inequality in the United States is to focus on the percentage of children attending college by income groups. Out of a hundred children whose parents are within the bottom 10% income earners, only thirty go to college. The figure reaches ninety when parents are within the top 10% earners.\nThe findings displayed by Figure 5.4.1 show that there is sometimes an enormous gap between official discourses about equal opportunity, meritocracy, and so forth and the reality of unequal access to education. This also suggests that it might be necessary to set transparent and verifiable objectives\u2014together with changes in the financing and admission systems\u2014in order to equalize access to education.\nCollege attendance rates and parent income rank in the US for children born in 1980\u20131982\nIn the United States, intergenerational mobility is also a local issue\nIn the case of the United States, strong geographic inequalities also interact with educational inequalities. In geographical areas with the highest mobility, a child born in a family from the bottom 20% of the income distribution has a 10% to 12% chance of reaching the top 20% as an adult (that is about as much as in the highly mobile countries of Canada or Denmark). Examples of highly mobile places include the San Francisco Bay and Salt Lake City in Utah. In areas with low intergenerational mobility, a child born in a family from the bottom 20% of the income distribution has only a 4% to 5% chance of reaching the top 20% as an adult. No advanced economy for which we have data has such low rates of intergenerational mobility. Cities in the US south (such as Atlanta) or the US rust belt (such as Indianapolis and Cincinnati) typically have such low mobility rates.\nWhat factors best explain these geographical differences in mobility? Detailed analysis shows that race and segregation play an important role in the United States. In general, intergenerational mobility is lower in areas with larger African-American populations. However, in areas with large African-American populations, both blacks and whites have lower rates of upward income mobility, indicating that social and environmental causes other than race, such as differences in history and institutions, may play a role. Spatial and social segregation is also negatively associated with upward mobility. In particular, longer commuting time decreases opportunities to climb the social ladder, and spatial segregation of the poorest individuals has a stronger negative impact on mobility. This suggests that the isolation of lower-income families and the difficulties they experience in reaching job sites are important drivers of social immobility.\nIncome inequality at the local level, school quality, social capital, and family structure are also important factors. Higher income inequality among the poorest 99% of individuals is associated with lower mobility.15 Meanwhile, a larger middle class stimulates upwards mobility.16 Higher public school expenditures per student along with lower class sizes significantly increase social mobility. Higher social capital also favors mobility (for example, areas with high involvement in community organizations).17 Finally, family structure is also a key determinant; upward mobility is substantially lower in areas where the fraction of children living in single-parent households, or the share of divorced parents, or the share of non-married adults is higher.\nWhat is remarkable is that combining these factors explains very effectively social mobility patterns. Taken together, five factors\u2014commuting time, income inequality among the 99% poorest individuals, high-school dropout rates, social capital, and the fraction of children with single parents\u2014explain 76% of inequalities in upward mobility across local areas in the United States. The vast geographic disparities in mobility in the United States, and the fact that they can be best explained by a combination of social factors at the commuting zone level, show that intergenerational mobility is largely a local issue.\nAccess to quality higher education is particularly unequal in the United States\nThe link between school quality and upward mobility that was highlighted above suggests that educational policies, school organization, and access rules can play a key role in promoting intergenerational mobility. Raj Chetty, John Friedman, Emmanuel Saez, Nicholas Turner, and Danny Yagan recently characterized intergenerational mobility in US colleges over a period of nearly fifteen years, from 1999 to 2013.18 They show the extent of inequality in access to higher education, but also reveal tremendous scope for improvement: if all institutions could be made as efficient as the highest 10% colleges in terms of social mobility, then mobility in the United States would be perfect. Children\u2019s outcomes would be unrelated to their parents\u2019.\nIntergenerational mobility at the level of a given college may be defined as bringing together two components: the access rate and the success rate. Access rate refers to the openness of that college to students from lower-income groups, and can be measured as the proportion of students in it who come from the poorest 20% families. Success rate refers to that college\u2019s ability to help children from poor backgrounds reach higher income groups throughout their life. It might, for instance, be evaluated as the share of students ending up in the top 20% income group, given that they come from families in the bottom 20% of the national income distribution. Putting these together, one might define the mobility rate as the fraction of all students in a given college who come from the poorest 20% families and end up in the top 20% group. Theoretically, the mobility rate of a perfectly mobile society would be 4%.19 The fact that it is currently just 1.7% in the United States as a whole shows that there is room for substantial improvement in providing low-income children with fair opportunities.\nIt is important to note, nevertheless, that family income differences only weakly predict the income positions of children from the same college. We saw that, at the national level, parental income strongly determined future position in the income distribution. However, within a given college, the relationship between parental income and student income is five times lower. At the national US level, children from the top 20% income groups end up 30 percentiles higher in the distribution than those from the bottom 20%; but among students attending a given elite college, this gap shrinks to close to 7 percentiles on average.\nContribution to mobility varies greatly across US colleges\nAccess to elite colleges remains highly unequal in the United States. Approximately 3% of children at Harvard University born between 1980 and 1982 come from the bottom 20% poorest families, whereas 70% come from the top 10%. In Ivy-Plus colleges (the most selective colleges in the United States) in general, there are more students coming from the top 1% richest families (14.5%) than from the bottom half (13.5%) of the population.\nSuch figures contrast sharply with public colleges. At Glendale Community College in Los Angeles, for instance, 32% of students come from the bottom quintile and only 14% from the top quintile. What is interesting is that high access rate colleges can also have high success rates (outcomes similar to highly selective colleges), translating into high mobility rates. Colleges helping many low-income students to reach the top of the income distribution tend to be public colleges welcoming a large number of low-income students. The existence of such institutions is particularly meaningful as it indicates that elite colleges may improve openness to students from poor backgrounds without compromising their outcomes.\nTrends in mobility are heterogeneous, but show that little progress has been made overall\nHow did access and success rates evolve in the past decade in the United States? The data allow us to track their evolution between 2000 and 2011. During this period, the fraction of low-income college students increased from 10.6% to 12.8%, and this growth has been concentrated at for-profit institutions and two-year colleges. Access rates increased by only 0.65 percentage points among the most selective colleges, even though most Ivy-Plus colleges implemented tuition reductions and other policies to welcome more students from disadvantaged backgrounds. This does not mean that these policies were inefficient. Given the context of rising inequality in the United States, mobility may have worsened without them. All that is visible is that the net combination of these factors left access to elite colleges mostly unchanged.\nDifferences in mobility rates show that improving poor children\u2019s access to high-performing schools could substantially improve the contribution of education to upward mobility. Given that children from low-income families have similar success rates than their peers of a given college, opening them access to good colleges can hardly be considered as misplacement. Until now, efforts to expand access has mostly focused on elite colleges. Considering changes in admissions criteria may be an important way forward. Improving access and increasing funding to high-mobility-rate colleges may also be critical. These colleges have very good outcomes, admit a large number of low-income students, and operate at relatively low cost compared to elite colleges.\nEducational inequalities can also be important in countries with lower levels of income and wealth inequality\nEuropean countries experienced a smaller rise of income and wealth inequality than that observed in the United States in recent decades (see Parts II\u2013IV). This certainly does not mean, however, that the issue of education inequality is not relevant in Europe. In particular, France is one of the most unequal OECD countries in terms of educational inequality, as highlighted by the 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). While the PISA survey provides information on France\u2019s general performance in terms of educational inequalities, still very little is known about the local characteristics explaining the large differences in outcomes between students from low- and high-income backgrounds. Gabrielle Fack, Julien Grenet, and Asma Benhenda have made significant contributions in this respect; their findings based on new data on middle schools and high schools in the Parisian region illustrate a particularly extreme case of educational inequality, but also are encouraging as they reveal how public policies can address these issues.20\nAs their work shows, in 2015, 115 public middle schools and 60 private schools welcomed more than 85\u2009000 students, many of whom came from higher socio-professional groups (49%) and few from disadvantaged backgrounds (16%). Overall, Parisian middle schools appear to be extremely segregated, with the share of students from lower socio-professional groups ranging from 0.3% to 63% in middle schools of the capital. Private schools play a key role in social segregation by concentrating wealthier families: most private schools in Paris included less than 10% of students from low-income groups, and the private school with the highest level of social diversity welcomed only 25%. Therefore, it appears that private schools succeed in crowding out less-advantaged students and contribute directly to the polarization of the French educational system.\nSocial segregation is closely related to spatial segregation\nThis polarization is reinforced by territorial segregation. Paris is strongly divided into distinct areas\u2014the north, northeast, east, and south, where median yearly income levels are below \u20ac30\u2009000, and the center and west, where they are usually above \u20ac40\u2009000. At the same time, access to Parisian middle schools is determined by location in the city. The French system allocates students in restricted geographical areas according to a \u201cschool map\u201d (carte scolaire), which implies that a student living at a given address can in principle access only one public middle school. Unsurprisingly, the repartition of students coming from poor and rich backgrounds therefore closely resembles that of parental income: certain middle schools in the relatively modest areas of Paris have more than 50% of students from low-income families, while most of schools in the richest areas of the city have less than 10%.\nSpatial segregation, however, goes far beyond these geographical areas, and also exists at a very narrow level within Parisian districts (arrondissements). In the eighteenth district, for instance, the share of students coming from poor backgrounds ranges from 9% to 58%, among high schools that are just a few hundred meters apart from one another. This effect is also reinforced by private schools, as wealthy families have the option to escape the public middle-school system.\nTransparent data is a necessary condition to improve public debates on education\nTracking the evolution of educational segregation is fundamental to understanding why France displays such extreme disparities in students from low- versus high-income groups\u2014and it is of crucial importance to evaluate existing policies. Concerning middle schools, segregation has been much higher in Paris than in Versailles or Cr\u00e9teil (both neighboring towns, all managed under different administrative units) since 2002, and has remained relatively stable in the three cities.\nHowever, new evidence from the evolution of segregation in high schools shows a very different picture. In 2007\u20132008, Paris implemented a new system of student allocation to high schools. Contrary to neighboring towns of Versailles and Cr\u00e9teil, where geographic proximity remained decisive, Paris decided to allocate students to their schools on the basis of their grades, across areas larger than before, to encourage social mixing. Students coming from disadvantaged backgrounds also obtained bonus points and therefore had more flexibility in the choice of their high schools.\nSocial segregation in public high schools in Paris decreased by one-third between 2002 and 2012 (see Figure 5.4.2), so that Paris has achieved a rate lower than in both Versailles and Cr\u00e9teil since 2010. The analysis of the new high-school allocation system based on students\u2019 grades shows that it played an important part in this evolution. Between 2005 and 2012, the share of students with grants based on social criteria, studying in the top 25% Parisian high schools, nearly doubled\u2014from 12% to 21%, while this share remained stable in the neighboring cities, as well as in Parisian middle schools which did not implement the allocation procedure.\nThe impact of an allocation policy on segregation in France, 2002\u20132012\nThis evaluation shows that reducing social segregation is possible. Evaluating and designing new allocation systems is therefore of crucial importance to giving equal opportunities to all children regardless of their socioeconomic origin. In this respect, citizens can engage in a transparent, democratic debate informed by reliable information. Indeed, this issue is not limited to rich countries. Emerging countries such as India are also confronted with large educational inequalities. Some have for a long time established reservation systems based on quotas. These are complex and far from perfect, but the study of their strengths and limits can help others countries make progresses (see Box 5.4.1).\nReservation policies in India\nIn order to tackle extreme social inequalities, India developed a vast system of preferential admission to the universities (as well as in public sector employment) for children from the lowest castes (the SC/ST or \u201cScheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes,\u201d the former highly discriminated untouchables, or almost 30% of the population). This nationwide program started in the 1950s. The implementation of reservation policies based on social and cultural segregation, however, faces complex measurement and political challenges. What is the correct way to identify legitimate beneficiaries? How can a dynamic reservation system be designed, which takes into account demographic, cultural, and economic changes?\nIn India, the so-called \u201creservation policies\u201d aroused growing frustration amongst the children in the intermediate castes (the OBC, or \u201cOther Backward Classes,\u201d roughly 40% of the population) caught between the most disadvantaged groups and the highest castes. Since the 1980s, several Indian states extended the policy of preferential admission to these new groups (including the Muslims who were excluded from the original system). Conflicts concerning these arrangements are all the greater because the old boundaries between castes are porous and do not always match the hierarchies in income and wealth. Far from it, in fact. In 2011, the federal government finally resolved to clarify these complex relationships by organizing a socio-economic census of the castes (the first to be carried out since 1931). The results of this census have been criticized as being unreliable and the central government also agreed on a series of measurement errors.\nThis reveals the importance of sound and legitimate data production systems to track demographic, economic, and cultural evolutions. In order to bypass current criticisms associated with reservation policies, one option for India could be to gradually transform these preferential admission policies into rules founded on universal social criteria, such as parental income or place of residence, along the lines of the admission mechanisms used for entry to schools or higher education institutions.\nTo a large extent, it could be argued that a country like India is simply endeavoring to confront the challenge of effective equality with the means available to a state based on the rule of law, in a situation where inequality of status originating in the former society and past discrimination is particularly extreme and threatens to degenerate into violent tensions at any time. However, as we have seen above, rich countries are not exempt from these issues, either\u2014as may sometimes be thought. Indeed, rich and poor countries alike have a great deal to learn from the trials and errors of the Indian reservation system, one of the oldest nationwide affirmative action programs in the world.\nIndeed, reservation systems cannot be sufficient to ensure equal access to education. If public schools and universities do not have enough resources to pay for good teachers, buildings, and furniture, even the most equalizing allocation system will have little impact on the democratization of quality education. Large public investments in this are essential today, in emerging and rich countries countries alike. In addition, educational policies alone are not sufficient to tackle inequality at the bottom\u2014policies supporting fair wages are also key (see Box 5.4.2).\nMinimum wage, fair wage, and corporate governance\nEducational policies promoting social mobility and equality of opportunity are certainly key to reducing income inequality and widening access to good jobs. They remain, however, limited in their ability to provide decent incomes to all. Policy tools potentially useful for increasing workers\u2019 pay include the minimum wage, and more democratic corporate governance.\nIt is, in this respect, noteworthy to mention that wage inequality and employment precariousness remain of crucial importance, and have been increasing in a range of countries. According to the International Labour Organization, the share of labor in aggregate income has continued its long-run decline in the past five years, and still, 80% of workers are paid less than the average wage of the firm in which they work\u2014a fact that skills-related characteristics fail dramatically to explain. Whether countries record high rates of average income growth or not, if individuals can only expect a declining share of it, equality-of-opportunity policies in education alone will fall short of meeting their demands.\nMinimum wages and labor market regulation can be critical to tackling income inequality.\nFigure 5.4.3 illustrates how regulatory policies can be tightly linked to disparities in earnings. While the real minimum wage has been steadily increasing in France since the beginning of the 1970s, in the United States it was actually higher in 1980 than it is today. Differences in income inequality dynamics between the two countries mirror this pattern, especially at the bottom of the distribution, as chapters 2.4 and 2.5 showed. Today, minimum wage workers in France earn nearly \u20ac10 per hour, almost 50% more than their counterparts in the United States, and this despite an average national income per adult in the United States that is 50% higher than in France. Minimum wages can therefore usefully help in compressing wage disparities, and notably differences in earnings between men and women, given that women are overrepresented among the low-paid in both developed and developing countries.\nTo reduce wage inequality and improve the overall quality of jobs would surely require deep changes in the way the power of different stakeholders is determined and organized. Some Nordic and German-speaking countries have already undergone changes in this direction by promoting \u201ccodetermination.\u201d For instance, employees\u2019 representatives hold half the seats in executive boards of major German firms, which ensures better consideration of workers\u2019 interests in companies\u2019 strategic choices or decisions over executive or workers\u2019 pay. These examples suggest that while being crucial, educational policies cannot suffice on their own to tackle the extreme inequality levels observed in certain countries.\nThe share of public wealth in national wealth has declined in most countries analyzed in this report. In many rich countries, it is now close to zero (France, Germany, Japan) or even negative (US, UK).\nSuch low levels of public wealth makes tackling existing and future inequality extremely challenging given that governments do not currently possess the resources necessary for investments in education, healthcare and environmental protection.\nSelling public assets and/or undergoing prolonged periods of austerity would be barely sufficient, or even insufficient, to repay public debts. Moreover, these policies would leave governments without the means to improve equality of opportunity for their citizens.\nHistory indicates that there are three different ways \u2013 and generally a combination of the three \u2013 by which a reduction of large public debts can be achieved: progressive taxes on private capital, debt relief, and inflation. Given the potential difficulties in controlling the incidence and extent of inflation, a combination of the former two policies appears more appropriate.\nReducing public debt is, however, by no means an easy task. Whilst several options exist and have been used across history, it is challenging to identify the best option(s) for each country. This is a matter for serious public debate, which must be grounded in sound economic, social and historical data and analyses\nThe share of public wealth in total national wealth has declined in all the countries analyzed in this report (see Part III). In Russia and China, this decline is the logical consequence of the move away from a communist system. Both countries were, however, successful to maintain relatively high levels of public capital as compared to rich countries. The current situation in rich countries stands out as an anomaly from a historical perspective.\nDuring the postwar economic boom, public assets in European countries were considerable (approximately 100\u2013130% of national income, thanks to their very large public sectors, the result of postwar nationalizations), and significantly higher than public debt (which was typically less than 30% of national income). In total, public capital\u2014net of debt\u2014was largely positive, in the range of 70\u2013100% of national income. As a result, net public wealth made up a significant share of total national wealth between 1950 and 1980, typically around 15\u201325% or more.\nOver the past thirty years, public debt approached 100% of national income in most industrialized economies, with the result that net public capital became almost zero. On the eve of the global financial crisis in 2008, it was already negative in Italy. The latest available data, presented in Part IV, shows that net public capital has become negative in the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom. In France and in Germany, net public capital is just slightly higher than zero.\nThis situation does not mean that rich countries have become poor: it is their governments which have become poor. As discussed in Part IV, private wealth\u2014net of debt\u2014has risen spectacularly since the 1970s. Private wealth represented 300% of national income back then. Today it has risen to, or exceeded, 600% in most rich countries. This prosperity in private wealth is due to multiple causes: the rise in property prices (agglomeration effects in larger metropolitan areas); the aging of the population and decline in its growth (which automatically increases savings accumulated in the past in relation to current income and contributes to inflating the prices of assets); and the privatization of public assets and rise in debt (which is held in one form or another by private owners, via the banks). Also contributing to this increase were the very high returns obtained by the highest financial assets (which structurally grow faster than the size of the world economy) and the evolution in a legal system globally very favorable to private property owners (both in real estate and in intellectual property).\nIt is interesting to remark that countries such as China and Russia, despite large shifts in the balance of private and public capital since their transition away from Communism, have succeeded in maintaining relatively high public wealth levels. In China, public wealth is above 200% of national income, and it is close to 100% in Russia. While the ratio has sharply decreased in Russia over the past two decades, it has remained fairly constant in China. In both cases, it is still much higher than in rich countries. Governments in these countries have preserved significant means of action and control over their economies.\nLarge public property has obviously important consequences for the state\u2019s ability to conduct industrial, educational, or regional development policy (sometimes efficiently and sometimes less so). In contrast, negative public wealth also has potentially enormous fiscal consequences: governments with negative net public wealth typically have to pay large interest payments before they can finance public spending and welfare transfers, while those with large positive net public wealth can potentially benefit from substantial capital income, and finance more public spending than what they levy in taxes. This situation is particularly problematic in a situation of high income and wealth inequality.\nWhat, then, are the different options for highly indebted governments? One possibility would be to sell all public assets (including all public buildings, schools, universities, hospitals, police stations, and infrastructure). In the United States, Japan, and the UK\u2014and even more true of Italy\u2014this would not be sufficient to repay the totality of public debt. In France and Germany, it would barely be sufficient. In all these cases, moreover, states would then have lost all (or nearly all) means of control over their education and health systems. To put it differently, social states would largely disappear, leaving governments without means to ensure equality of opportunity.\nAnother option would be to undergo prolonged periods of austerity, via drastic reductions in governments\u2019 expenditures. In effect, this also contributes to increasing inequality as governments would slash their redistribution programs to repay debts. In terms of both justice and efficiency, austerity and privatizations stand out as very bad measures.\nFortunately there are also other options. In history, one generally observes three different ways\u2014and generally a combination of the three\u2014to accelerate the reduction of a large public debt: progressive taxes on private capital; debt relief; and inflation.\nFirst, an exceptional tax on private capital can raise substantial revenue to reduce debt. For instance, a flat tax of 15% on private capital in rich countries (about 600% of national income) would yield nearly a year\u2019s worth of national income (exactly 90% of national income) and thus allow for immediate reimbursement of all nearly outstanding public debt.\nThis solution is equivalent to repudiation of the public debt, except for two crucial differences. First, it is always difficult to predict the ultimate incidence of a debt repudiation (even a partial one). Bondholders are forced to accept what is called a \u201chaircut\u201d\u2014meaning that the value of government bonds held by banks and creditors is reduced by 10\u201320% or even more. The problem is that it is very difficult to predict which actors ultimately bear the loss and, when applied at a large scale, haircuts can trigger panic among investors and a wave of bankruptcies\u2014and potentially, the meltdown of the financial sector, which few governments are willing to experience. Second, an exceptional tax on private capital, contrary to a debt repudiation, can be adjusted to individuals\u2019 wealth levels\u2014by using an explicitly progressive rate structure. Given the very large concentration of wealth, this is highly preferable. For instance, the top 1% of the wealth distribution typically owns around 30% of total wealth (that is, the equivalent of 180% of national income if aggregate wealth represents 600% of national income). Instead of using a flat tax of 15% on private capital, one could raise the same revenue by exempting the bottom 99% of the wealth distribution and applying an average effective tax rate of 50% on the top 1% wealth group. Alternatively, one could use an intermediate system. For instance, a progressive tax on capital that levied zero tax on capital up to 1 million euros, a 10% tax between 1 and 5 million euros, and a 25% tax above 5 million euros would raise 20% of national income in Europe\u2014and that would be an important step toward a gradual reduction of public debt.\nInterestingly, a special tax on capital was applied in France in 1945 to reduce substantial public debt. This special tax had progressive rates which ranged from 0 to 25%. Most importantly, special progressive taxes on private wealth were put in place after the Second World War in Germany, and were gradually paid by German private wealth holders between the 1950s and the 1980s.\nAt that time, exceptional progressive taxes on private wealth were used together with various gradual forms of debt repudiation and debt relief\u2014an obvious second way to accelerate the reduction of a large public debt. In particular, Germany benefited from a near complete reduction of its foreign debt at the London conference in 1953. These were debts that were accumulated by Germany during the reconstruction period of 1945 to 1953. International creditors\u2014largely governments\u2014decided in 1953 to postpone repayment until German unification (with no indexation mechanism), and the debt was eventually entirely cancelled.21\nIn the current context, new forms of debt relief might develop in Europe, and to some extent have already started to develop (albeit too slowly, and with multiple hesitations and setbacks). Specifically, public institutions like the European Central Bank (ECB) and the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) could gradually take onto their balance sheets rising fractions of individual countries\u2019 public debts and postpone repayments until certain social, economic, and environmental objectives have been met. This would make it possible to have the advantages of debt repudiation without the financial instability coming from investor panic and bankruptcies.\nPublic debt in France and Germany, 1945\u20131953\nFinally, the third solution used historically to accelerate the reduction of a large public debt is inflation. Historically, this mechanism played a crucial role in the reduction of most public debts. High levels of inflation were the major mechanisms used in France and Germany to bring their public debts to very low levels after the First World War, and they also played a central role in the aftermath of the Second World War, together with more sophisticated mechanisms like progressive wealth taxes and debt relief. One major problem with inflation as a policy instrument is that it is hard to control. Once it starts, policymakers may have difficulties stopping it. Inflation, moreover, is a much less precise tool than taxation in terms of incidence. In theory, it could act as a tax on those who have idle capital, and provide relief to those who are indebted by reducing the value of their debt. In practice, however, it can have less desirable effects from a fairness point of view. During high-inflation phases, large and well diversified portfolios invested on the stock market can earn a good return while smaller wealth holdings of the middle class and the poor held in savings accounts can be wiped out. A combination of exceptional wealth taxes and debt relief seems like a better option.\nReducing public debt is thus by no means an easy task. Several options exist and have been used across history. We certainly do not pretend that we have identified the best option for each country. This is a matter of serious public debate, which must be grounded in sound economic, social, and historical analysis and comparisons over time and countries. (See Box 5.5.1.) In this discussion, there is one crucial element: today, large investments are required to promote more equal access to education or to protect the environment and combat the consequences of climate change.22 If these challenges go unaddressed they are likely to reinforce tomorrow\u2019s levels of economic inequality. Recent history has shown that in exceptional circumstances, exceptional measures were taken by societies through their governments to reinvest in the future.\nThe importance of standardized inequality metrics for international comparisons and collective learning\nThe need for sound economic data to allow civil society, researchers, businesses, and policymakers to debate and develop informed and balanced policy responses to rising economic inequality has been a dominant theme in this report.\nIn that regard, it is interesting to note that the United Nations agreed in 2015 to seventeen sustainable development goals (SDGs), as part of a global agenda to transform society in rich and poor countries alike. Recognizing that rising income and wealth inequality has become a universal issue, SDG Target 10 commits countries to \u201creduce inequalities within and among countries.\u201d To that end, the SDG framework calls on states to articulate nationally specific implementation strategies and to put in place monitoring and review processes to meet the UN goals.\nThis development is particularly remarkable since international organizations have until recently paid limited attention to within-country inequality issues, considering the reduction of inequalities to be a sovereign issue for each country, or positing inequalities as a necessary evil towards global improvement of wellbeing. Concerns about domestic income inequalities were politically confined in the shadow of absolute poverty considerations, until the UN\u2019s Sustainable Development Goals replaced its former Millenium Development Goals. In addition, global development goals have so far only focused on poor and emerging countries\u2014leaving rich countries aside. We have seen, however, that both rich and poor countries face rising inequality.\nIn this context, the unanimous endorsement of SDG Target 10.1 by the UN member states marks an important shift. Target 10.1 aspires to \u201cby 2030, progressively achieve and sustain income growth of the bottom 40 per cent of the population at a rate higher than the national average.\u201d This target was subject to harshly contested debates among country representatives. While China argued that within-country inequality reduction was a national prerogative, the United States contended that a standalone goal on inequality would better be achieved through economic growth. At some point, the inequality target was even removed from the SDG list. A group of countries led by Denmark, Norway, and Brazil supported its reinsertion, arguing that a specific metric should be used to precisely ensure that growth reduces inequality.a If anything, such debates suggest that countries are taking this new indicator seriously.\nHow do countries fare on SDG Target 10.1? WID.world data is particularly suited to \u00adaddress this question. Table 5.5.1 compares target achievement of six countries over the following periods of time: 2015\u20132016, 2000\u20132016, and 1980\u20132016. The focus here is on pre-tax income.\nIn 2016\u20132015, only one country was able to meet the target: France. In all five other countries, the income growth of the bottom 40% was lower than the national average. These results help underscore the power of this objective: it is transformative in the sense that it cannot be automatically met. Countries will have to act if they want to fulfill their commitments. The 2000\u20132016 period provides another crucial insight. During this time span, Brazil, France, and Russia were able to meet the target\u2014with very different average growth trajectories, however. This implies that success has been possible over relatively longer time spans for several countries, and suggests that meeting the target in the future is not only desirable but also feasible\u2014even if results over the 1980\u20132016 period are less encouraging.\nFirst, as described earlier in this report, inequality also increased at the top. Focusing on the bottom 40% alone can miss important dynamics\u2014in part for the middle class, which may be squeezed between increases in both the bottom 40% share and the top 1% share. In particular, the top 1% can also grow significantly faster, as was the case in most countries for the periods considered. In Brazil from 2000 to 2016, the bottom 40% grew much faster (12%) than the average (1%), but the top 1% grew at 24% in the meantime. To a lesser extent, this also occurred in France over 2015\u20132016, with bottom 40% groups and the top 1% growing faster than average. This means that the income share held by individuals richer than the bottom 40% but poorer than the top 1% decreased. This \u201csqueezed middle class\u201d phenomenon obviously poses one of the most important policy challenges for the years to come and deserves very careful scrutiny.\nSecond, these estimates focus on pre-tax income. Pre-tax income inequality estimates take into account most cash redistribution in rich countries (see Box 2.4.1) but do not include personal income and wealth taxes. International comparisons of post-tax income inequality measures are thus also necessary to assess the full impact of fiscal policy. As discussed earlier in this report, more work lies ahead to collect, harmonize, and analyze such information. The United Nations and other international organizations have a responsibility in this regard. WID.world will remain committed to working toward such results, with all its statistical contributors willing to dedicate resources to this task, to enlighten the public democratic debate.\nBearing in mind these remarks, the SDG Target 10.1 on inequality stands out as a very useful tool for stakeholders dedicated to tackling economic inequality. To be sure, an inequality metric based on sound data cannot in itself change policy\u2014but it is a necessary basis for doing so. The SDG framework can also lead to the establishment of a framework for collective learning on inequality reduction policies.b As emphasized in this report, there is large scope for learning between rich and poor countries regarding the fiscal, educational, wage, and public investments policies they employ to promote fairer development pathways.\na\u2003Chancel, L, Hough, A., Voituriez, T.

        "title": "Ground-Fault Protection",
        "raw_content": "INSULATION AND GROUNDING\nInsulation and grounding are two recognized means of preventing injury during electrical equipment operation. Conductor insulation may be provided by placing nonconductive material such as plastic around the conductor. Grounding may be achieved through the use of a direct connection to a known ground such as a metal cold water pipe.\nConsider, for example, the metal housing or enclosure around a motor or the metal box in which electrical switches, circuit breakers, and controls are placed. Such enclosures protect the equipment from dirt and moisture and prevent accidental contact with exposed wiring. However, there is a hazard associated with housings and enclosures. A malfunction within the equipment\u2014such as deteriorated insulation\u2014may create an electrical shock hazard. Many metal enclosures are connected to a ground to eliminate the hazard. If a \"hot\" wire contacts a grounded enclosure, a ground fault results which normally will trip a circuit breaker or blow a fuse. Metal enclosures and containers are usually grounded by connecting them with a wire going to ground. This wire is called an equipment grounding conductor. Most portable electric tools and appliances are grounded by this means. There is one disadvantage to grounding: a break in the grounding system may occur without the user's knowledge.\nInsulation may be damaged by hard usage on the job or simply by aging. If this damage causes the conductors to become exposed, the hazards of shocks, burns, and fire will exist. Double insulation may be used as additional protection on the live parts of a tool, but double insulation does not provide protection against defective cords and plugs or against heavy moisture conditions.\nThe use of a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is one method used to overcome grounding and insulation deficiencies.\nThe ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is a fast-acting circuit breaker which senses small imbalances in the circuit caused by current leakage to ground and, in a fraction of a second, shuts off the electricity. The GFCI continually matches the amount of current going to an electrical device against the amount of current returning from the device along the electrical path. Whenever the amount \"going\" differs from the amount \"returning\" by approximately 5 milliamps, the GFCI interrupts the electric power within as little as 1/40 of a second. (See diagram.)\nHowever, the GFCI will not protect the employee from line-to-line contact hazards (such as a person holding two \"hot\" wires or a hot and a neutral wire in each hand). It does provide protection against the most common form of electrical shock hazard--the ground fault. It also provides protection against fires, overheating, and destruction of insulation on wiring.\nWith the wide use of portable tools on construction sites, the use of flexible cords often becomes necessary. Hazards are created when cords, cord connectors, receptacles, and cord- and plug-connected equipment are improperly used and maintained.\nGenerally, flexible cords are more vulnerable to damage than is fixed wiring. Flexible cords must be connected to devices and to fittings so as to prevent tension at joints and terminal screws. Because a cord is exposed, flexible, and unsecured, joints and terminals become more vulnerable. Flexible cord conductors are finely stranded for flexibility, but the strands of one conductor may loosen from under terminal screws and touch another conductor, especially if the cord is subjected to stress or strain.\nA flexible cord may be damaged by activities on the job, by door or window edges, by staples or fastenings, by abrasion from adjacent materials, or simply by aging. If the electrical conductors become exposed, there is a danger of shocks, burns, or fire. A frequent hazard on a construction site is a cord assembly with improperly connected terminals.\nWhen a cord connector is wet, hazardous leakage can occur to the equipment grounding conductor and to humans who pick up that connector if they also provide a path to ground. Such leakage is not limited to the face of the connector but also develops at any wetted portion of it.\nWhen the leakage current of tools is below 1 ampere, and the grounding conductor has a low resistance, no shock should be perceived. However, should the resistance of the equipment grounding conductor increase, the current through the body also will increase. Thus, if the resistance of the equipment grounding conductor is significantly greater than 1 ohm, tools with even small leakages become hazardous.\nPREVENTING AND ELIMINATING HAZARDS\nGFCIs can be used successfully to reduce electrical hazards on construction sites. Tripping of GFCIs\u2014interruption of current flow\u2014is sometimes caused by wet connectors and tools. It is good practice to limit exposure of connectors and tools to excessive moisture by using watertight or sealable connectors. Providing more GFCIs or shorter circuits can prevent tripping caused by the cumulative leakage from several tools or by leakages from extremely long circuits.\nEMPLOYER'S RESPONSIBILITY\nOSHA ground-fault protection rules and regulations have been determined necessary and appropriate for employee safety and health. Therefore, it is the employer's responsibility to provide either: (a) ground-fault circuit interrupters on construction sites for receptacle outlets in use and not part of the permanent wiring of the building or structure; or (b) a scheduled and recorded assured equipment grounding conductor program on construction sites, covering all cord sets, receptacles which are not part of the permanent wiring of the building or structure, and equipment connected by cord and plug which are available for use or used by employees.\nThe employer is required to provide approved ground-fault circuit interrupters for all 120-volt, single-phase, 15- and 20-ampere receptacle outlets on construction sites which are not a part of the permanent wiring of the building or structure and which are in use by employees. Receptacles on the ends of extension cords are not part of the permanent wiring and, therefore, must be protected by GFCIs whether or not the extension cord is plugged into permanent wiring. These GFCIs monitor the current-to-the-load for leakage to ground. When this leakage exceeds 5 mA \u00b1 1 mA, the GFCI interrupts the current. They are rated to trip quickly enough to prevent electrocution. This protection is required in addition to, not as a substitute for, the grounding requirements of OSHA safety and health rules and regulations, 29 CFR 1926. The requirements which employers must meet, if they choose the GFCI option, are stated in 29 CFR 1926.404(b)(1)(ii). (See appendix.)\nThe assured equipment grounding conductor program covers all cord sets, receptacles which are not a part of the permanent wiring of the building or structure, and equipment connected by cord and plug which are available for use or used by employees. The requirements which the program must meet are stated in 29 CFR 1926.404(b)(1)(iii), but employers may provide additional tests or procedures. (See appendix.) OSHA requires that a written description of the employer's assured equipment grounding conductor program, including the specific procedures adopted, be kept at the jobsite. This program should outline the employer's specific procedures for the required equipment inspections, tests, and test schedule.\nThe required tests must be recorded, and the record maintained until replaced by a more current record. The written program description and the recorded tests must be made available, at the jobsite, to OSHA and to any affected employee upon request. The employer is required to designate one or more competent persons to implement the program.\nElectrical equipment noted in the assured equipment grounding conductor program must be visually inspected for damage or defects before each day's use. Any damaged or defective equipment must not be used by the employee until repaired.\nTwo tests are required by OSHA. One is a continuity test to ensure that the equipment grounding conductor is electrically continuous. It must be performed on all cord sets, receptacles which are not part of the permanent wiring of the building or structure, and on cord- and plug-connected equipment which is required to be grounded. This test may be performed using a simple continuity tester, such as a lamp and battery, a bell and battery, an ohmmeter, or a receptacle tester.\nThe other test must be performed on receptacles and plugs to ensure that the equipment grounding conductor is connected to its proper terminal. This test can be performed with the same equipment used in the first test.\nThese tests are required before first use, after any repairs, after damage is suspected to have occurred, and at 3-month intervals. Cord sets and receptacles which are essentially fixed and not exposed to damage must be tested at regular intervals not to exceed 6 months. Any equipment which fails to pass the required tests shall not be made available or used by employees.\nThis discussion provides information to help guide employers and employees in protecting themselves against 120-volt electrical hazards on the construction site, through the use of ground-fault circuit interrupters or through an assured equipment grounding conductor program.\nWhen planning your program, remember to use the OSHA rules and regulations as a guide to ensure employee safety and health. Following these rules and regulations will help reduce the number of injuries and accidents from electrical hazards. Work disruptions should be minor, and the necessary inspections and maintenance should require little time.\nAn effective safety and health program requires the cooperation of both the employer and employees.",

        "raw_content": "Driving tech innovation through diverse minds thinking together\nBy Nagu Rao, Senior Manager, Accenture, Bengaluru, India\nComing from a family where women were encouraged to study science and math, I had plenty of role models. My mother was one of the first women engineers in India, so it was an easy choice for me to pursue engineering and technology.\nHowever, it felt a bit strange that I was the only woman in my class at a premier school\u2013the Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi. From then on, thankfully, the ratio of women improved significantly, as I moved into management and business.\nI now work at Accenture, where there are women in top management positions.\nTimes are indeed good for the diversity agenda. The focus on diversity, much more than in the past, is great! It brings rich and multifaceted experiences together.\nMore women are now in board positions, making important decisions in technology and driving change. Companies are gaining, and everyone gains.\nAfter graduation, I worked in the United Kingdom for many years and then returned to Accenture in India. India was booming, as it still is, and the opportunities have been exciting. To be able to lead changes here has been particularly interesting for me.\nBeing in technology now is fascinating. Technology changes so fast, and there are new challenges to surmount every day. It takes all my creativity and imagination to keep pace.\nSometimes, when I\u2019m alone, I think about how our minds, with millions of neurons, chemicals and atoms, are capable of creating such fantastic thoughts and actions.\n\"Technology is a true manifestation of imagination turning into reality.\"\nJust 100 years ago, few imagined humans reaching the moon. Each century of life brings with it so much more than just the passage of time, with humans transforming their ideas and imagination into reality. And technology is a true manifestation of imagination turning into reality.\nThe ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle said: \u201cThe whole is greater than the sum of its parts.\u201d And I truly believe that we, as people, are much more than the sum of our parts.\n\"We can achieve a lot more than we think we are capable of when we consciously tap into our potential.\"\nIt is said that humans use only 1 percent of their intelligence. We can achieve a lot more than we think we are capable of when we consciously tap into our potential. This idea is true, whether we apply it at work or to our life in general.\nHarnessing creative juices\nMy blog\u2013www.amblingindian.com\u2013takes my imagination even further, into the greater space of creation. The sheer joy, excitement, and intrigue of returning to India after many years fuels my blog. The blog is about India, written by the ambling Indian, the main character.\nThe ambling Indian\u2013a common woman\u2013looks at everyday life in a quirky way. The blog is a fun one about Indian innovation, humor, life and more, meant for all.\nAfter the success of my blog and an offshoot Ambling Indian book, I am looking forward to harnessing the creative juices even further.\nI extend the same thread of creative thought to my work. Within my team, I drive the creation of an ideation tool, to urge team members to think creatively and come up with novel ideas. It has led to a forum to take the ideas forward. We are not just letting ideas stay in people\u2019s heads!\nFrom there, we pick ideas to move them to implementation. I am happy to say that the creative juices have flown. My team has come up with more than 22 ideas in a quarter, of which more than half are at various stages of implementation.\nDriving game-changing ideas across the organization has itself become the new game. And for the team, thinking and working together has become much greater than the sum of its parts!\nEach one of us is a marvel of creation\u2013so much greater than the sum of just parts. Let us harness this thought into greater creativity and make the world a better place!\nHow storytelling and teaching help a career\nTeaching and storytelling come naturally to Senior Manager Nia Sarinastiti. See the video to learn how she uses both in her marketing career.",

        "raw_content": "Co-piloting the diversity journey with Jennifer Kaplinsky\nJennifer Kaplinsky, managing director, on \u201cdiversity\u201d\u2014a strategic business driver\u2014and strength to serve \u201cnew\u201d real-time travelers\nI joined the Dallas office of Andersen Consulting in August 1995 after graduating from Tulane University in New Orleans, La. with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science.\nMost of the time, I have been in the Products Travel Practice, but I also have worked in SI Solution Architecture and Product Sales organizations. Currently, I am the Client Account Lead for a Dallas-based airline, and I\u2019m the Dallas Employee Resource Group Executive Sponsor.\nFrom a personal perspective, I can track my career in consulting alongside major life milestones. When I started dating my husband, Matt, I was working on a Canadian airline project; planned my wedding (10 years ago) while working on a federal government assignment; had my first child (Allie, now 8) while I worked for both an international airline and a global hotel company; and took on client account lead responsibilities for a North American focused airline when I returned from maternity leave with Ryan, who is now 3.\nWhat are you seeing in the market when it comes to inclusion and diversity?\nI am seeing an absolute commitment to diversity as strategic driver of businesses. I see it both at Accenture and at my current client. I\u2019m seeing companies shift the focus from creating diverse teams to creating truly inclusive teams. It is not good enough to have a diverse workforce. If you are not involving and sponsoring all resources to harvest diversity of thought, innovation will be lost.\nYou recently participated in a diversity event in Dallas with an airline industry partner and Southern Methodist University. Can you share what it was about?\nIn September 2016, we partnered with Southwest Airlines for their annual Inclusion & Innovation Summit, where they seek to highlight thought leaders across business, arts, media and academics to advance the dialogue around issues of diversity and inclusion. SMU Cox School of Executive Education helped us co-sponsor the event and brought a tremendous academic perspective to the table about the changing demographics of the business landscape.\nOur theme was The Ultimate Playbook: How do high performing teams come together and win? We \u201cdrafted\u201d thought leaders from academia, industry and professional sports to illustrate how diverse teams, when nurtured by sponsorship and created to be inclusive, can spark innovation and achieve greater results. We took a deeper dive to explore how diversity of thought drives innovation, and how sponsorship is vital to furthering inclusion.\nIt was eye (and brain) opening to hear the comparison of traditional business organizations to sports teams and locker room dynamics. To make a winning team, the best athletes are chosen regardless of ethnicity, socioeconomic circumstances, religion, etc., but in business we are still moving toward that goal.\nYou conducted some research recently that examined the level of diversity in the airline industry. What did you find?\nWe analyzed DiversityInc.\u2019s top 5 most diverse companies at the C-Suite and board level, with focus on gender and ethnicity. Essentially, we crafted an index of data and compared where the top 10 North American airlines are in comparison. A lot of industries and companies aspire to reach those diversity benchmarks, and our analysis indicated that it\u2019s no different for the top 10 North American airlines. They have a long way to go to reach parity in terms of both gender and ethnic diversity in the C-Suite and at the board of director level.\nHow can a diverse workforce contribute to the strength of an airline?\nDiversity affects the strength of all companies and governments, not just airlines. But airlines do find themselves in a unique position as the traveling public represents a diverse set of people\u2014a true cross section of our world today. To understand how to best serve all of their customers, regardless of gender, ethnicity, disabilities and socioeconomics, I believe you need a diverse set of employees to contribute to the customer strategy. A diverse set of employees brings different life experiences and a cross-section of empathies, which provoke thoughts for the whole group to consider as they look for ways to create innovative, customer-focused solutions. For example, do you know the challenges of a person in a wheel chair who is traveling on an airplane? How does a company create the best customer experience possible for persons with disabilities if their employees do not have the life experiences to draw upon?\nSpeaking of diversity, you are a managing director, and you are also mom to two kids. How do you balance it all?\nFirst, I am grateful to work for a company that places emphasis on work-life integration. I feel that Accenture provides many options for me to utilize. And, honestly, sometimes I don\u2019t balance it all. I take our client and family plans week-by-week. I try to arrange my schedule such that I can be with Allie and Ryan for important school events and love to plan their birthday parties. Most of the time I can juggle my client commitments and work events with my commitments to my family and it works out, and sometimes it does not. I believe a successful work-life balance is unique to each of us. We must take into account our significant other, extended family, client and project timing and our own health.",

        "raw_content": "Free Genealogy \u00bb Old Families of Southeastern Massachusetts \u00bb Descendants of Veranus Filoon of North Bridgewater, MA\nDescendants of Veranus Filoon of North Bridgewater, MA\nUpdated: October 27, 2015 | Connecticut, Genealogy, Massachusetts Genealogy, Virginia | 0 |\nFor several generation the family bearing the name of Filoon has live in Abington and North Bridgewater (now Brockton), where evidence of their thrift, solidity and respectability are manifest, and there also have lived the Bretty and Fullerton families, with which the more recent generations of the Filoons have been allied through marriage, the Brett family being one of the ancient families of the Old Colony and its progenitor an original proprietor of Bridgewater. This article is to particularly treat of the branch of the Filoon family to which belonged the late Veranus Filoon, who was long and prominently identified with the business and social circles of North Bridgewater and Brockton, and his son, the present Fred W. Filoon, who as his father\u2019s successor is continuing the business with marked success, as well as the former\u2019s brother, the present Henry H. Filoon, who has long been a leading and successful practicing dentist.\nJames Filoon, the American progenirot of this family, was born in County Armagh, Ireland from Scotland on account of religious persecution. As was compulsory as late as the year 1800, James Fillon served in the English army, but becoming dissatisfied with the life in the army he and his brother and another young man boarded a vessel bound for America as stowaways, arriving here in 1802. Upon his arrival in this country James Filoon settles in south Abington, Mass., where he lived for some years, later removing to Livermore, Maine, where he followed the occupation of farming. He was of an industrious nature, and possessing a quiet, unassuming manner was generally liked and esteemed by all who knew him. He was a man very religiously inclined, and both he and his wife were devout members of the Universalist church. James Filoon married Christiana Ann Burrell, of Abington, Mass. They both passed away in Livermore, Maine. To their union were born children as follows:\nMary, Mrs. Fisher, died in Livermore\nJames, Jr., was a successful farmer in Livermore, and died in Auburn, Maine\nJohn Williams is mentioned below\nMehitable, who married a Mr. Young, died in Livermore\nThaxter was successfully engaged in agricultural pursuits in Livermore, where he died\nChristina died in Main\nJohn Williams Filoon, son of James and Christiana Ann (Burrell) Filoon, was born Nov. 20, 1811, in Abington (now Whitman), Mass., and was reared on his father\u2019s farm, removing with his parents to Livermore, Maine, where he continued, at home, until he reached his majority. At the age of twenty-one years he returned to Massachusetts with his savings, which amounted to one hundred years he returned to Massachusetts with his savings, which amounted to one hundred dollars, and settled in Hanover, where he became engaged in farming. Later he located in his native town, Abington, were he became engaged in shoemaking, following that occupation for a number of years. In 1844 he came to North Bridgewater (now Brockton), where he continued at his trade, eventually opening a shop of his own on the north side of Crescent street, adjoining his home, and here he thus continued while rearing his family. Under his instruction all his boys were taught the art of shoemaking, they being given their time when they reached the age of nineteen year. A careful and painstaking mechanic, and on of more than ordinary ability, he was always in demand and found no difficulty in obtaining employment at his trade. Later in life he took charge of the estate of the late Chandler Sprague, where for several years he had general charge of the farming on the estate, and upon retiring from this position accepted a place in the factory of his son, the late Veranus Filoon, continuing this employed until he had reached the age of seventy-five years, when he retired from an active life.\nAlthough a man who had decided views Mr. Filoon was liberal minded, and being of a genial and affable nature he retained the friendships be made and commanded the respect and esteem of all who knew him. After coming to North Bridgwater he joined the Central Methodist Episcopal Church, and continued a consistent member of the same until his death, which occurred in Brockton Aug. 18, 189\u20338, in the eighty-seventh year of his age. Mr. Filoon was a strong Antislavery advocate, and was active in giving assistance to the slaves who were secretly transported from New Bedford through North Bridgewater on their way to Canada.\nOn May 2, 1837, Mr. Filoon married Mary Fullerton, daughter of Noah Fullerton, of Aldington, who was a descendant of several of New England\u2019s historic old families. She was born March 9, 1818, and died in Brockton June 29, 1880, aged sixty-two years. To this union were born the following children:\nJohn Williams, Jr., born Dec. 19, 1837, in Abington, was a soldier in the Civil war, being a member of Company D, 9th New York Volunteers, and was killed at the battle of Winchester, Va., Sept. 19, 1864 (he was unmarried)\nVeranus, born April 25, 1841, is mentioned below\nHenry Harrison, born April 4, 1843, is mentioned below\nMartha Jane, born Oct. 21, 1846, in North Bridgewater, was married there to Samuel J. Wade, and died in Brockton, May 8, 1908\nMary Adeline, born Jan. 27, 1850, married Alvin Phillips, of Easton, Mass., and died in Brockton, March 16, 1901\nFrank Wendell, born Jan. 28, 1853, died April 14, 1872, aged nineteen years\nLizzie Emma, born Sept. 2, 1859, married George A. Dow, of Brockton, where they reside\nVeranus Filoon, son of the late John Williams and Mary (Fullerton) Filoon, was born April 25, 1841, in Abington (now Whitman), Mass. When he was about four years of age his parents removed to the town of North Bridgewater, the son accompanying the family hither, and this point, now the city of Brockton, continued to be his place of residence and field of operations from that time until his death. Until the age of sixteen years he attended the public schools of North Bridgewater, devoting his spare moments during this time to assisting his father in making shoes, continuing with him until he had reached the age of nineteen years, when his father gave him his time. He was then employed at needlemaking for a year or more, and for a period during the years 1860 and 1861 worked at the same occupation in Richmond, Va., where he was located at the time of the breaking out of the Civil war. Returning to North Bridgewater he again took up the trade of shoemaking which he followed until the last year of the war, when he offered his services to his country in its struggle to maintain the Union of the States, enlisting at Readville, Mass., July 8, 1864, as a member of Company C, 60th Regiment, Massachusetts V. M.; he served until the expiration of his term of enlistment, Nov. 30th of that year. Upon his return from the war he again engaged in the shoe industry, in North Bridgewater, on June 27, 1865, entering the employ of Keith & Packard, which firm was composed of the late Aberdeen Keith and Davis S. Packard, and engaged in the manufacture of boot counters. Mr. Filoon continued in the employ of this firm, which was dissolved in 1876 and was succeeded by the firm of D. S. Packard & Co., of which latter firm Mr. Filoon became the junior member on July 1, 1880. In 1886 the manufacture of shoe counters was added to the business, and during the succeeding years this firm built up a very extensive trade, which now extends all over the United States, their product being well and favorably known in all shoe manufacturing centers in this country. At that time, in the middle eighties, Mr. Filoon gave his attention to the buying of materials and also to the selling of their product. In 1895 Mr. Packard retired from active business, and Mr. Filoon purchased his interests in the concern, continuing to conduct it alone for a period of about two years under the same firm style, when he admitted his son, Fred Williams Filoon, into partnership. In 1900 the firm name was changed to V. & F. W. Filoon, and the leather business was added, which has since become an important branch of the business of this well known house. The business was conducted under that firm name until the death of Mr. Veranus Filoon, which occurred July 4, 1905, since which time it has been continued by his son, the present Fred W. Filoon, as a close corporation.\nMr. Filoon was a prominent and active member of long standing in the Masonic organization, and had been honored in the several bodies to which he belonged. . He was a member of Paul Revere Lodge, A. F. & A. M.; Satucket Chapter, R. A. M., of which he was a past high priest; Brockton Council, R. & S. M., of which he was a charter member and in which he bore the distinction of being the first thrice illustrious master; and Bay State Commandery, Knights Templar, of Brockton, of which he was a past eminent commander. He was also a charter member of the Commercial Club of Brockton, and was a member of the building committee which had charge of the erection of the present commodious club house at the corner of North Main and Spring streets.\nHe also held membership in Fletcher Webster Post, No. 13, G. A. R., of Brockton. Although a stanch Republican in his political views, Mr. Filoon never cared for public office, preferring to devote his undivided attention to his extensive business interests.\nOn Sept. 24, 1863, Mr. Filoon was united in marriage with Sarah Adelaide Brett, daughter of David and Caroline E. (Freeman) Brett, of North Bridgewater. Mrs. Filoon, who was a devoted and loving wife and mother, and whose love for her husband found expression in her devotion to her family, survived her husband, passing away in Brockton Aug. 15, 1909. Mrs. Filoon was descended from historic old New England ancestry on both maternal and paternal sides, her mother, Caroline E. Freeman, daughter of Christopher and Elizabeth (Meade) Freeman, having traced her ancestry to Colonial times through the Meade family of Boston. On the paternal side Mrs. Filoon was a direct descendant in the eighth generation from William Brett, who came to Duxbury, Mass., in 1645, from Kent, England, and later became one of the original proprietors of the ancient town of Bridgewater, locating in what is now West Bridgewater. He was an elder in the church, and often, when Rev. James Keith was sick, he preached to the people. He, a leading man not only in church but also in town affairs, was often representative to the General Court of the Colony. The Christian name of his wife was Margaret, and they had six children, through whom have descended probably all bearing the name of Brett in this country. From this William Brett the lineage of Mrs. Filoon is through\nNathaniel and Sarah (Hayward) Brett\nSeth and Sarah (Alden) Brett\nSamuel and Hannah (Packard) Brett\nIsaac and Priscilla (Jackson) Brett\nJoseph and Olive (Beal) Brett\nDavid and Caroline E. (Freeman) Brett\nIn this lineage it will be noted that through the marriage of the Bretts into other early New England families Mrs. Filoon was also descended from Samuel Packard, who with his wife and child came from Windham, England, in the ship \u201cDiligence,\u201d and settled in Hingham, Mass., in 1638, later becoming an early settler of West Bridgewater, and through whom have descended probably all those bearing the name of Packard in this country; and as well from John Alden and Priscilla Mullens, of the \u201cMayflower,\u201d 1620, whose courtship has been immortalized in Longfellow\u2019s poem. To Mr. and Mrs. Veranus Filoon were born the following children:\nMabel Adelaide\na son who died in infancy\nFred Williams, mentioned below\nIn the death of Veranus Filoon, which occurred July 4, 1905, at his home, No. 114 Prospect street, Brockton, that city lost one of its prominent citizens and successful business men. His death was the result of three successive shocks. Mr. Filoon was in every sense of the word a self-made man. Endowed with remarkable energy and business tact, with a good constitution and vigorous health, he devoted him-self to as many hours of service as he required of his employees, and prosperity crowned his efforts. He was of a generous, noble nature, commending himself not only to his business associates and others whom he met in a business way by his practical wisdom, ability, trustworthy judgment and upright honesty of purpose, but also to the general public by those more general qualities of character which go to make a complete manhood, and which are well calculated to secure the confidence and regard of all classes. His habits were largely domestic and he took much delight in making his home cheerful, pleasant and happy, and in it he found his enjoyment, leaving a memory which is cherished and honored by his children.\nFeed Williams Filoon, only son of the late Veranus and Sarah Adelaide (Brett) Filoon, was born Sept. 26, 1870, in North Bridgewater (now Brockton), and acquired his educational training in the public schools and the high school of his native city. After leaving school he became a clerk in the office of Bouve. Crawford & Co., shoe manufacturers of Brockton, in which capacity he continued for a period of about five years. In 1892 he entered the employ of the firm of D. S. Packard & Co., manufacturers of shoe counters, of which firm his father, the late Veranus Filoon, was the junior member. In 1897 he was admitted to partnership in this business, of which his father was then the sole proprietor. In 1900 this firm name was changed from D. S. Packard & Co. to V. & F. W. Filoon, at which time the firm also became dealers in sole leather of all kinds, and under this firm name the business was carried on until after the death, in 1905, of Mr. Veranus Filoon, when it was incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts as the V. & F. W. Filoon Company, with a capital stock of $100,000, of which Fred W. Filoon is the president and treasurer. This concern is engaged in the manufacture of shoe counters of all kinds and as well as dealers in sole leather, giving employment to from 150 to 200 hands. The product has a ready market in every shoe manufacturing center in this country.\nMr. Filoon, like his father, is an active member of the Masonic bodies, holding membership in Paul Revere Lodge, A. F. & A. M.; Satucket Chapter, R. A. M.; Brockton Council, R. & S. M.; and Bay State Commandery, Knights Templar, of Brockton. He is also a member of the Commercial Club, which numbers among its membership the leading business and professional men of the city. He is also identified with one of the city\u2019s leading financial institutions, being a director of the Brockton National Bank. In political faith he is a Republican, but his strict attention to his increasing business interests prohibits him from taking an active part in political affairs.\nAlthough among the younger business men of Brockton, Mr. Filoon possesses pronounced business acumen, and, notwithstanding the fact that in assuming the sole management of the business of V. & F. W. Filoon he took charge of what had been for many years a successful business enterprise, he has greatly increased the volume of business done by the concern.\nOn Oct. 22, 1902, Mr. Filoon was united in marriage to Mary Helen Whipple, daughter of Col. John J. and Helen Otis (Howard) Whipple, of Brockton, and this union has been blessed with one son, John Whipple Filoon, who was born June 13, 1906, in Brockton.\nHenry Harrison Filoon, son of the late John Williams and Mary (Fullerton) Filoon, was born April 4, 1843, in South Abington (now Whitman), Mass., his parents removing to North Bridgewater (now Brockton) when he was about one year old. His educational training was begun in the district school of the latter town, where he attended the Sprague school, in that part of the town known as Factory Village. Leaving school at the age of fourteen years, he then took up shoemaking with his father, with whom he continued until he was nineteen years of age. Being of a studious nature, he had kept up his studies after leaving school, and having as associates several young men who were attending Prof. Sereno D. Hunt\u2019s Academy he purchased textbooks in line with the studies pursued by them. About this time he, in company with several other young men of his age, engaged Prof. Alfred Laws, who was one of the first principals of the high school, to give them evening instruction, and while his days were devoted to shoemaking with his father, his evenings and spare moments were devoted to study. After leaving his father\u2019s service he went to work on boots for Webster Spear, in whose employ he remained several months. As there was at that time a very great demand for army handmade shoes, he accepted employment sewing these shoes for Cyrus Kingman and Emerson Kingman, remaining in their employ several months. Before the Civil war had closed a change had taken place in the making of shoes, the many small shops in which three or four workmen would make the shoes and return them to the factories ready for the market giving way to the larger factories, where the shoes were manufactured in greater numbers and much more speedily, each workman having his special work to do on the shoes. For a time Mr. Filoon was employed in the factory of the late David Howard, on Linden street, but the strain of the gang work and rush in the larger factory soon proved too strenuous for him, and in the summer of 1863 he went to Raynham, Mass., where he found employment in a smaller factory, remaining there until the following winter. In January, 1864, he returned to North Bridgewater, where he went to work on shoe knives in the employ of Webster Brothers, in whose employ he continued for a period of about two years. During the summer of 1865 he was offered the opportunity of learning dentistry by the late Dr. George R. Whitney, who was then located in the building which stood on Main street, where now stands the Goldthwaite building, and on Jan. 2, 1866, he entered Dr. Whitney\u2019s office under a three years\u2019 contract. He continued in the latter\u2019s office until in May, 1867, when on account of ill health Dr. Whitney was compelled to retire for a time and Mr. Filoon then went to New Bedford, entering the office of Dr. C. Gr. Davis, on May 20, 1867. There he continued his studies in dentistry for one year, on May 20th of the following year returning to the office of Dr. Whitney, at North Bridgewater, the latter having regained his health. After several months he formed a partnership with Dr. Whitney, which association continued for one year. In April, 1871, Dr. Filoon opened an office on his own account for the practice of his chosen profession, locating in the building at the corner of Main and High streets, where now stands the \u201cMetropolitan Hotel\u201d building. Here he remained until in July, 1872, when upon the completion of Clark\u2019s block, at the corner of Main and Centre streets, he removed his office thereto, and at this location continued successfully engaged in the practice of his profession until 1892, when he sold out to Dr. Charles E. Foster. On Sept. 1, 1892, Dr. Filoon formed a partnership with Charles E. Johnson, under the firm name of Johnson & Filoon, and engaged in the leather business.\nThis partnership continued until Jan. 1, 1896, when they withdrew from the business. Dr. Filoon then engaged in the real estate and insurance business, in which he was interested for a year or two, when upon the death of Dr. Charles E. Foster, his successor in the dental business, he in 1899 purchased the business and again entered upon the practice of his profession. Shortly afterward he removed his dental parlors to the Times building, at the corner of Main and Pleasant streets, where he has since continued in the practice of dentistry, in which he has met with deserving success.\nFraternally Dr. Filoon is a member of various Masonic bodies, holding membership in Paul Revere Lodge, A. F. & A. M.; Satucket Chapter, R. A. M.; and Bay State Commandery, Knights Templar, of Brockton. He is one of the charter members of the Brockton Dental Society, organized in 1908, and was the first president of the society, holding that office for two years. He was also a member of the Commercial Club for a number of years, having been one of the original members. In political faith Dr. Filoon is a Democrat, and has served the city as a member of the common council from Ward Two \u2013 in 1895 and 1896. He also served as a trustee of the Brockton Public Library for a period of six years, from 1887 to 1893. Dr. Filoon is one of the original incorporators of the Brockton Savings Bank, which was incorporated in 1881. He is a member of the Brockton Country Club, and is fond of golf as a recreation. He is also a member of the Anti-Imperialistic League of Massachusetts, and was for many years a member of the Massachusetts Reform Club, with headquarters in Boston.\nIn early life Dr. Filoon was a member of the Central Methodist Episcopal Church, of Brockton, and for a time was a teacher in the Sunday school, but while at New Bedford, Mass., in the office of Dr. Davis, who was a Unitarian, he became imbued with the creed of Unitarianism and became much interested in the doctrines of that denomination as promulgated by Rev. William J. Potter, a very able Unitarian minister then in charge of the church at New Bedford, and whose services he attended occasionally. Upon returning to North Bridgewater Dr. Filoon found a growing class of Unitarians, and joining with them, he leased on his own responsibility, for a month, Satucket hall, where the first service of that denomination in the town was held, he furnishing the organ, choir and seats. Encouraged by the increasing attendance the first month, on May 1, 1881, the Church of the Unity was organized and the expenses of the first month assumed by the society. For three years the services of the church were held in Satucket hall, at the end of which time the society was able to erect its present church edifice on Warren avenue. Dr. Filoon has been distinctly influential in the church, of which he is an active and consistent member, and which he has served in various capacities with fidelity and faithfulness. He has been a member of the standing committee and clerk of the same for many years; has served as superintendent of the Sunday school at various times, and has been a teacher in the Sunday school since the organization of the church. For several years he has been president of the Plymouth and Bay Conference of the Unitarian Churches. He is also a life member of the American Unitarian Association, being the first member of that association made by the Brockton society.\nOn Sept. 6, 1871, Dr. Filoon was united in marriage to Catherine Howard Brett, daughter of Martin Luther and Catherine (Howard) Brett, of Easton, Mass. Mrs. Filoon is a descendant of several of New England\u2019s earliest settled families, as well as being descended from \u201cMayflower\u201d ancestry, numbered among whom are John Alden and Priscilla Mullins. To Dr. and Mrs. Filoon have been born three daughters, as follows:\nAlice Howard, who is the wife of Arthur Hayward Alger, of West Bridgewater\nKate Harrison, who was a teacher of domestic science in the public schools of Washington, D. C, and is now engaged in the same profession at New Britain, Conn.\nAnnie Mitchell, who is a trained nurse by profession, and resides at home with her parents\nDr. Filoon is courteous and affable in manner, generous in his impulses, and having been a student since his boyhood days is well versed on many topics. He is fond of good literature, his well selected library affording him ample opportunity for literary entertainment.\nAlden, Alger, Beal, Brett, Bretty, Burrell, Davis, Dow, Filoon, Foster, Freeman, Fullerton, Hayward, Howard, Jackson, Johnson, Keith, Kingman, Laws, Luther, Meade, Mullens, Mullins, Packard, Phillips, Potter, Spear, Sprague, Wade, Whipple, Whitney, Williams, Young,\nCivil War, Military,\nAbington Massachusetts, Boston Massachusetts, Brockton Massachusetts, Duxbury Massachusetts, Hingham Massachusetts, New Bedford Massachusetts, New Britain Connecticut, North Bridgewater Massachusetts, Raynham Massachusetts, Richmond Virginia, Whitman Massachusetts, Windham England,\nPreviousCushman Family of Acushnet, MA\nNextDescendancts of John Remington of Haverhill, MA",

        "raw_content": "Another atrazine victory for lawyers and activists\nBy ACSH Staff \u2014 April 2, 2010\nA lawsuit in the \"judicial hellhole\" that is Madison County, Ill., against the makers of the world's most widely used herbicide threatens to undermine our way of evaluating risks in this country. If the lawyers -- and the anti-chemical, anti-business activists -- get their way, American agriculture will be forced back to practices of the pre-industrial age. And that will be only the first step in the \"environmentalist\" agenda to roll back progress.\nIf you think that's an exaggeration, think again. A finding against Syngenta, which manufacturers atrazine, would set a very dangerous precedent, with repercussions for farmers and anyone who enjoys their bounty. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), unfortunately, has now loaned its weight to the activists' Luddite effort to restrict or ban a number of safe and useful agricultural chemicals in common use -- with atrazine, the most effective weed-killer available, only one of the targets.\nAtrazine has been widely used for over fifty years and is credited with dramatically increasing yields of corn and sugar cane (among other crops) while reducing the need for other, cruder weed-killers, saving embattled farmers precious money. There has never been a single instance of adverse health effects in humans reliably attributed to exposure to atrazine when used as licensed.\nNevertheless, lawyers specializing in working with anti-business activists recruited a few local water systems to sue Syngenta in Illinois beginning in 2004, alleging that there was too much atrazine in their drinking water. The litigants demanded expensive water filtration systems, paid for by the chemical company. This, despite the fact that the monitored atrazine levels, including some occasional spikes, did not violate EPA guidelines for average concentrations. They were permissible and posed no health risk for anyone drinking the water.\nHowever, the plaintiffs do not accept even the hyper-stringent guidelines of the EPA and asked the court to accept only a \"zero tolerance\" standard for chemical contaminants. Now, perhaps sensing increasing anti-chemical sentiment in Washington, the same groups have filed a similar lawsuit in federal court. The water system litigants plead for funding for expensive filtration systems to filter atrazine from their drinking water.\nIf, as the plaintiffs allege, their only concern were atrazine, they could stop worrying about drinking-water filtration and rest easy. However, if this case is upheld, lawyers and activists will have manipulated scientifically unsophisticated juries into rejecting the basic toxicological precept that \"the dose makes the poison.\" Everything is toxic at some level but harmless in small enough amounts. Since scientists can now detect substances at parts per trillion, an amount smaller than a drop in an Olympic-sized pool, and thus can find at least some trace of almost any chemical in almost any location, a zero tolerance approach would essentially bar the use of any chemical pesticide (or even fertilizer) in American agriculture.\nThis anti-atrazine litigation has the potential to reverse the \"Green Revolution\" in agro-science that has helped feed the world for decades.\nIn attempting to justify their trumped-up \"health\" case, the activists and their lawyers refer repeatedly to a few experimental results showing harm to frogs. But most of the studies they point to have originated in the lab of one particular anti-atrazine crusader, with almost none of those findings verifiable in other labs. Even the hyper-vigilant EPA re-approved atrazine in 2006.\nTrue, the new, more cautious team now running the EPA has decided to yet again re-assess atrazine -- but this new review was so blatantly unnecessary that the EPA's own administrator, Lisa Jackson, could not with a straight face call it a health issue. Rather, the review was prompted by \"consumer concerns,\" she said. Those concerns are based on anti-chemical hysteria and litigation-supporting reports. Catering to them only perpetuates public fear.\nThe E.U. did indeed ban atrazine, not over any real health concern, but based on the unscientific \"precautionary principle.\" There was \"not enough information to prove its safety,\" according to the E.U. committee. In fact, no substance can be proved completely safe, as too much of anything can be hazardous -- including (atrazine-free) distilled water and table salt. Fortunately, we do not allow the precautionary principle to rule the day with every substance. If we did, we'd have to throw away aspirin and just about anything else that is not 100% safe. We depend on realistic, exposure-based risk assessment and reasonable risk-benefit balance.\nIf the plaintiffs get their way, we'll move away from that sort of rationality and the technological progress that has gone with it. This litigation is frivolous yet dangerous, for if zero tolerance of any contaminant in water becomes the standard, in defiance of all scientific precepts of dose-response, agriculture will stop its centuries-long trend toward greater safety and efficiency and take a colossal leap backward.",

        "raw_content": "I was more or less oblivious to my ADHD. Then third grade hit and, with it, a new school in a new state and kids who said I was annoying. If I could sit down and explain my brain to them, here is what I would say.\nBy Jackson J.\nI am that kid. That one in the back of the class being helped by another teacher. That kid who no one wants to play with. That kid who no one really knows. This has been me most of my life.\nI was a happy kid. And I still am, but it was a lot harder to be happy after the first day of third grade \u2013 the day my life got significantly worse. I lived in Los Angeles until the end of second grade and loved it. A kid\u2019s life couldn\u2019t get any better: friends, nice teachers, happy family, sunshine. All that changed (especially the last part), when my family moved to Washington State.\nFrom that first day at my new school, nobody wanted to play with me. I started coming up with quick, cool lies about my life in L.A. to make them interested. But, still, there was one kid in particular who never let me play in his group of friends. I really wanted to, so I would ask and ask and ask. Being in third grade, I had no idea how annoying that could be.\n[Free Download: 14 Ways to Help Your Child With ADHD Make Friends]\nIn general, I have no idea when I\u2019m being annoying. In most situations where I\u2019m doing something weird, I have no clue that I am doing it. I could be licking my fingers and not even know it. In the back of my head I know that I\u2019m licking my hands but the part of the brain that says, \u201cSTOP! That is so weird, people think that\u2019s annoying and gross\u201d is broken for me. It\u2019s just turned off.\nAnother thing about my ADHD brain: It\u2019s either all the way on or all the way off. At any given moment, I\u2019m thinking about a million random things and the next thing I know I\u2019m asking 20 million questions or making a weird noise. And I usually start doing it long before I notice it. You could say the mechanism in a brain that picks up on surroundings and reactions is buried under everything else that I think or do. That part of my brain does exist, but it doesn\u2019t come up on its own. I have to manually bring it up, and I can\u2019t always do that. I can sometimes hear it, and then I check my surroundings and say, \u201cWhat am I doing?\u201d But then my brain shoves it back down where I can\u2019t hear it again.\nGroup work is hard for me. If I don\u2019t know everything I\u2019m supposed to do, my brain prevents me from getting started. This leads to yet another annoying scenario. I start asking a barrage of questions and I don\u2019t stop. It\u2019s very weird. I feel like I literally CAN\u2019T stop until I know exactly what needs to happen. Then the students at my table think, \u201cThis kid\u2019s annoying.\u201d If I were one of those kids, I would be extremely overwhelmed with my questions, too. But, in that moment, I have no idea how I\u2019m being perceived.\n[Never Punish a Child for Behavior Outside His Control]\nI don\u2019t choose to be annoying or gross. Most times I just underestimate how weird something is, and I\u2019m missing that part of the brain that sends weirdness alerts. Is that so terrible, after all?\nShould I act like a protective Mother Bear or step back to let my Lee step up in h...\n\u201cPlaying Catch and Catching Clues\u201d\nThe kids who need the most attention, positive feedback, and mentoring from adults are seldom the ones to ask...\nWhy It\u2019s Not OK to Label Our Children\nA Label My Daughter Loves\n\u201cMom Always Treated ADHD As a Difference, Not a Deficiency.\u201d\n\u201cMy Son Gets the Brush-Off from His Peers\u201d\nWhat\u2019s So Nice About Normal?\nOh my goodness, Jackson. You just made this mother of a 14 year old son with ADHD cry. You just described my son and his \u201cannoying\u201d habits. I always knew that something was different about my sons behavior but never once heard it put the way you just did. Coming from a mother who has seen this first hand, this totally makes sense to me now. It is that part of his brain that you describe that tells him that something is inappropriate that is missing. When you said you have to manually pull up the part of your brain that tells you to stop doing something I could see my son when he notices that he is making a repetitive noise all the sudden. He stops and looks around and apologizes. Now I know why. Thank you for teaching me something today.\nAmanda Bradley says:\nThis article was heart wrenching and enlightening at the same time. Thank you Jackson for sharing. I am the mom of a 4th grader with ADHD who exhibits some of these same behaviors. Other kids tell him he\u2019s annoying often. I appreciate you sharing this as it provides a unique perspective.\ndreesbeth says:\nSocial ADHD can be so heartbreaking as you watch your child interact with others! My 12 yr old some has it\u2026\nmccasem says:\nJackson, I look forward to reading more posts from you. You are a very brave young man to write so eloquently about your feelings. You are going to be amazing as you grow. Please don\u2019t be so hard on yourself. You are so creative and talented and in touch with your feelings. I am a mom to a 14yr old whose name is Jack. I wish you didn\u2019t live across the country because I think the two of you would be great friends. Hang in there and thanks for posting how you feel. I will have my Jack read this so he knows he isn\u2019t alone.",

        "raw_content": "Retail & Consumer Newsletter - November 2017\nWelcome to November's Retail & Consumer newsletter!\nAnother (Half) Year, another Budget\u2026\nAs from last week, the Budget timetable has now moved from Spring to Autumn. So, what news did the Chancellor deliver for R&C in the second Budget of 2017?\nIncreases in the National Minimum Wage will increase the cost base, particularly for retail businesses, though this may be offset to some extent by the fact that this, along with the increase in the personal allowance could benefit consumer spending power. Still on the subject of labour costs, many R&C businesses will await with trepidation the Government's response to Matthew Taylor's review of employment practices, which was announced as forthcoming.\nOnline selling platforms will need to pay even closer attention to VAT compliance by their users as HMRC will be given new powers to hold online marketplaces jointly and severally liable for evaded VAT. Conversely, this could help UK-based retailers (both online and offline) by levelling the playing field.\nTakeaway businesses and coffee shops should keep a close eye on the forthcoming call for evidence on single use plastics. It seems likely that the single use carrier bag regime will be extended to impose charges on their use.\nThere were several developments of interest to the automotive industry. The Chancellor has said he wants the UK to be leading in the development of driverless technology and regulations requiring an operator to be on board during testing are set to be relaxed. In addition, the Chancellor has announced that the Government will invest in \u00a3200m into boosting the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles and that this will be matched by \u00a3400m of private investment. A new VED diesel supplement for new diesel vehicles registered from 1 April 2018 which don't meet emissions limits in real driving conditions is clearly intended to be a stick to ensure manufacturers up their game on real world emissions.\nLast but by no means least: business rates. Retailers, in particular, will welcome the acceleration of the switch from RPI to CPI increases by two years. The Treasury has estimated that this change alone will save British business \u00a32.3bn over the next 5 years. In addition, the frequency of revaluations will be increased so they occur every 3, rather than 5, years, which should make the system fairer overall.\nAutumn Budget 2017 \u2013 Retail and Consumer\nFor a further analysis of the key budget points of relevance to those operating in the Retail and Consumer sector.\nGovernment Review of FOBTs\nThe Government recently concluded its eagerly-anticipated review into fixed odds betting terminals, known as \"FOBTs\". This article from our Corporate Finance team discusses the uncertainty faced by bookmakers as to the precise effect of the proposals in terms of future revenue likely to be generated by FOBTs.\nTrends in Transport \u2013 Drones\nAddleshaw Goddard invites you to read the second in a series of spotlight articles discussing emerging Trends in Transport and Future Infrastructure. This month we are discussing the challenges and legal issues relating to the deployment of drones, deployment and the challenges ahead.\nThe forum will focus on the proposed reforms to the UK's corporate governance regime and, in particular, the consultation on changes to the UK Corporate Governance Code and associated guidance which will be launched by the Financial Reporting Council either in November or early December 2017.\n12 December 2017, 8:30 \u2013 10:30 - London\n18 December 2017, 9:00 \u2013 11:00 - Manchester\n18 December 2017, 16:00 \u2013 18:00 - Leeds\n25 January 2018, 16:00 \u2013 18:00 - Edinburgh\nRSVP \u2013 Sophie Jennings\nMock Employment Tribunal, Leeds\nWe are running a Mock Employment Tribunal on Wednesday 31 January 2018 in Leeds. This is an event for in-house employment lawyers, HR professionals and line managers alike, offering the opportunity to gain the experience of an employment tribunal in a safe environment. Delegates will be given packs to take away including the pleadings, witness statements and the relevant documentation relied on by the parties. The cost of this event is \u00a399 plus VAT, and we are offering an early bird discounted rate of \u00a349 plus VAT for any reservations placed on or before 15 November 2017.\nRSVP - Vicky Lightowler\nDownload the full newsletter in PDF\nJoin the conversation: @AG_RandC",

E.\nElectron beam (e-beam) curing of polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is highly desirable from a manufacturing standpoint in that significant cost savings may be realized from the reduced cycle times, the ability to cure large and irregularly shaped parts, and the ability to use inexpensive tooling. However, for many applications in the aerospace and transportation industries, e-beam processable resins currently available do not meet the performance specifications (e.g., excellent thermal stability, high strength, and high toughness). Adherent Technologies, Inc. has recently been developing linear, low molecular weight polyimides with functionalities amenable to cross linking under electron beam irradiation. A soluble, fully-imidized polyimide backbone was used as the basis for all materials prepared. Oligomers of several different molecular weights were prepared and end-capped with functionalities amenable to electron beam-induced cross linking reactions. A carbon fiber-based tape impregnated with the most promising resin was prepared and exposed to electron beam irradiation at a total dose of approximately 150kGy. Thermomechanical analysis of unexposed tapes showed considerable compression of the sample at temperatures as low as 150\u00b0C. In contrast, the e-beam exposed samples showed less resin softening and less compression during analysis. Glass transition temperatures in the exposed samples were also higher (240\u00b0C to 250\u00b0C). Current efforts focus on improving polyimide processability for automated tape placement (ATP) and on increasing functionality in the system to afford a better cure.\ne-beam curing, polyimide, polymer matrix composites, PMC, Oligomers, automated tape placement, ATP",

The Ivorian government has expressed its determination to continue improving the country\u2019s infrastructure in order to support its successful economic development.\nAFC is committed to proactively financing and managing the development of key infrastructure projects which will have a positive impact on the lives of Africans all over the continent. To date the Corporation has invested over US$2.5 billion in projects across 24 African countries and in a wide range of sectors including power, telecommunications, transport and logistics, natural resources and heavy industries.\nThe construction of the Henri Konan Bedie Bridge, a landmark $365 million public private partnership, was one of the first large-scale infrastructure development projects to be undertaken by President Ouattara\u2019s government following the cessation of civil war in 2011. AFC was the mandated lead arranger for the mezzanine tranche of the financing and provided loan facilities and equity investments amounting to $55 million. The bridge, which provides quick and easy access directly into the heart of Abidjan, has dramatically reduced transportation costs by easing congestion on existing routes, improving the country\u2019s overall connectivity.\nEarlier this year AFC signed a joint development agreement with Ivoire Hydro Energy SA (IHE), an Ivorian project company, for the development of the 44MW Singrobo hydroelectric power plant (Singrobo) in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire. The new plant will be a much needed addition to the country\u2019s power grid and will accelerate regional integration by tackling West Africa\u2019s energy deficit.\nAFC has also provided financing to Societe Ivorienne de raffinage (SIR).\nMr. Andrew Alli, Chief Executive Officer of AFC, commented on the announcement: \u201cThis is a wonderful opportunity for AFC to expand its portfolio of projects in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire and therefore play its part in accelerating the country\u2019s economic development.\n\u201cBy signing the Corporation\u2019s Instrument of Accession and Acceptance of membership, C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire enables AFC to receive preferred creditor status within the country, the benefits of which would reduce our investment risk and allow us to provide more competitive financing solutions. We hope to continue working closely with both public and private organisations within C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, building on what we have already achieved to set the standard for future developments.\u201d\nThe other member states of AFC include: Cape Verde; Chad; Ghana; Guinea-Bissau; Guinea; Liberia; Nigeria; Sierra-Leone, The Gambia and Gabon.\nAFC, an investment grade multilateral finance institution, was established in 2007 with an equity capital base of US$1 billion, to be the catalyst for private sector infrastructure investment across Africa. With a current balance sheet size of approximately US$2.9 billion, AFC is the second highest investment grade rated multilateral financial institution in Africa with an A3/P2 (Stable outlook) rating from Moody\u2019s Investors Service. In May 2015, AFC successfully concluded a debut US$750 million Eurobond issue which was 7 times oversubscribed and attracted investors from Asia, Europe and the USA.",

        "raw_content": "This post was written by Manuel A. Hernandez and Yanyan Liu, Senior Research Fellows with the International Food Policy Research Institute's Markets, Trade, and Institutions Division (MTID), and Sara Gustafson, an MTID Communications Specialist. The original post appeared on IFPRI blogs.\nMany households in developing countries lack access to credit because they have no cash or property assets to serve as collateral. This can severely limit their life opportunities, preventing them from investing in their farms or other businesses and also reduces their resilience to economic shocks.\nGroup lending through microfinance programs has become a popular practice in many developing countries to address this issue. Instead of attempting to borrow individually, people organize into self-help groups that collectively take out loans; all group members are responsible for paying them back. This arrangement allows financial institutions to rely on information advantages among group members, rather than on financial collateral, to mitigate information asymmetries between lenders and borrowers.\nWhile generally effective, group lending encounters a basic problem of any loan program\u2014some participants end up not paying the money back. How can group lending programs effectively collect repayments while still serving poor borrowers? Specifically, it can be difficult for lenders to determine which groups pose a risk of default and which do not.\nMany factors determine a group\u2019s loan repayment performance. These include members\u2019 socio-economic characteristics (e.g., income, occupation, literacy, etc.), but also more intangible factors such as entrepreneurial spirit, trust among group members, and the level of peer monitoring and enforcement. These latter factors are important for the fate of loan repayments, yet cannot be readily observed or quantified.\nA 2018 paper published in Economic Inquiry by IFPRI researchers Manuel A. Hernandez and Yanyan Liu, and collaborator Li Gan of Texas A&M University, proposes a new model to examine these unobservable individual and group characteristics and their role in group repayment behavior. It is designed to aid lenders in identifying more and less risky borrowing groups.\nThe IFPRI team utilizes a dataset of 1,110 group loans allocated to 12,833 members in Andhra Pradesh, India. The loans followed a recent self-help group model program in the region, promoted by the World Bank, that combined savings generation and microlending with social mobilization. In 76 percent of the groups examined, all group members fully repaid their loans; in 17 percent of the groups, all group members defaulted or did not fully repay their loans.\nThe study uses a finite mixture structure to model group members\u2019 repayment behavior in the presence of unobserved group heterogeneity. In the model, certain average characteristics of members, and of groups and villages, help to identify two distinct group types: Those more inclined to fulfill their repayment obligations (\u201cresponsible\u201d groups) and those that are more inclined to default on their loans (\u201cirresponsible\u201d groups).\nThe model\u2019s two group types summarize all unobserved individual and group characteristics; individuals in a given group will make repayment decisions based on their unobserved group type, in addition to their observable individual and loan characteristics. The group type classification thus offers lenders new insights they could not glean from data on observable factors alone.\nThe model allows banks to link observable characteristics with the unobserved group types and to more effectively screen clients for future loans. \u201cResponsible\u201d groups, for instance, tend to hold more frequent meetings and have greater access to village services such as telephones and financial institutions.\nThe researchers also found that loan characteristics\u2014such as high-frequency repayment schedules, shorter terms, and larger group size\u2014are more important indicators of success for \u201cirresponsible\u201d groups than for \u201cresponsible\u201d groups. Accounting for these differences can help lenders reduce transaction costs by offering contracts tailored to a predicted group type.\nOverall, the proposed model appears to be more effective in identifying potential defaulters than standard probabilistic models that do not control for unobserved, intangible factors such as social cohesion and peer monitoring and enforcement. Such a model can help financial institutions better screen potentially risky groups from safe ones and better manage the risk associated with group lending programs, ultimately making microfinance a more effective development tool.\nThe Council on Smallholder Agriculture Finance (CSAF) is a pre-competitive alliance of 12 financial institutions that seek to expand the market and develop industry standards for lending to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the agriculture sector. In 2014, one of the CSAF members made a US$...\nBanking on Growth: How Finance Institutions Can Close Smallholder Finance Gap\nA sector having undergone exceptional growth in the last few decades, microfinance has brought financial service access to previously unreached communities around the globe.

        "raw_content": "Email a copy of \"Iranian Protests Raise Tricky Questions for US and Saudi Policymakers\" to a friend\nProtesters gathered outside Iran\u2019s embassy in London on New Year\u2019s Eve. Photo: Eddie Keogh / Reuters.\nIf Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman\u2019s checkered foreign policy track record is anything to go by, Iran could tempt him to embark on yet another risky adventure inspired by widespread anti-government protests in Iran.\nIn many ways, Prince Mohammad faces the same considerations in deciding how to respond to events in Iran as does US President Donald Trump. This month, Trump will have to choose not only whether to certify to Congress Iranian compliance with the 2015 international agreement that curbed the Islamic Republic\u2019s nuclear program, but also whether to waive US sanctions on Iran. A decision to reimpose economic sanctions could mean a US withdrawal from the agreement.\nAt the core of Trump\u2019s decision, as well as Prince Mohammad\u2019s deliberations on how and if to respond to the Iranian protests, is this question: Does a strengthening of hardline conservative factions in Iran serve the US and Saudi purpose of at least further containing the Islamic Republic, and possibly engineering a situation that would be conducive to regime change?\n\u201cThe most likely scenario is that the evidence of popular dissatisfaction and the inevitable repression will harden the Trump administration\u2019s position on sustaining the [nuclear] deal and provide additional incentives for ratcheting up new economic pressure on the government. They also may see some possibility of flipping the Europeans if the crackdown is fierce and well-documented,\u201d said Brookings fellow and former State Department policy planning Iran expert Suzanne Maloney. Europe has urged Trump not to nix the nuclear agreement.\nIranian President Hassan Rouhani, in contrast to the hardliners, has sought to reach out to the protesters by recognizing their right to criticize, while denouncing violence and promising to address their economic grievances.\nRouhani may be able to tackle some issues like the fraudulent financial institutions that have deprived many of their savings, but will struggle to fix the country\u2019s structural economic issues, including the power of hardline institutions such as the Revolutionary Guard Corps. He may also be able to institutionalize \u2014 and anchor in law \u2014 the right to protest, with the backing of hardliners. Moreover, addressing economic issues will be even more daunting if Trump effectively withdraws from the nuclear agreement.\nUltimately, the odds are that hardliners, irrespective of what scenario unfolds, will emerge strengthened by the current crisis, either as a result of the protests losing momentum as the regime curbs access to social media; a brutal squashing of the protests as a last resort; or because increased external pressure will initially unite rival factions and reinforce widespread disillusionment with the nuclear agreement \u2014 a compact that has failed to provide tangible economic benefits to a majority of Iranians.\nLooming in the background is the risk that Prince Mohammad, with or without US backing or cooperation, will seek to exploit the Islamic Republic\u2019s problems by attempting to further destabilize it, by stirring unrest among already restive ethnic minority groups such as the Kurds and the Baloch. Kermanshah, a city in predominantly Kurdish western Iran, was one of the first cities to which the protests spread after they erupted in the conservative stronghold of Mashhad.\nSaudi Arabia has funneled large amounts of money in the last 18 months to militant groups and madrassas or religious seminaries in the Pakistani province of Balochistan, which borders on the Iranian region of Sistan, and Baluchistan \u2014 both populated by restive Baloch populations. Last year, Riyadh-based think tank believed to be supported by Prince Mohammad published a blueprint for stirring unrest among the Iranian Baluch.\nPresident Trump and the US State Department have, in recent days, expressed support for the protesters, urged the international community to do the same, and said that they back those in Iran who seek a peaceful transition of government.\nVarious US analysts have argued that Trump\u2019s anti-Iranian track record, including his attempted bans on granting visas to Iranians, curtails the impact of his support for the protesters \u2014 and might even strengthen the hardliners, by allowing them to point fingers at alleged foreign instigation.\n\u201cWhile we\u2019re on Trump, the impact of his tweets has been marginal at best. They\u2019ve triggered a slew of angry comments, packed with ridicule. Across classes, factions and generations in Iran, there is a shared contempt for #POTUS whose policies look erratic and hypocritical,\u201d tweeted Bloomberg News\u2019 Iran correspondent, Golnar Motevalli.\nRather than speaking out, the analysts proposed concrete steps that the US could take to support the protesters. Maloney and journalist Maziar Bahari suggested the US could use its influence with technology, satellite Internet providers, and social media companies like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to try to keep the protesters\u2019 communications channels open.\nFormer State Department official Reza Marashi argued that the advice that he and others proffered in 2009 \u2014 when the Iranian government faced far larger protests against alleged election fraud \u2014 remain valid in the current situation.\n\u201cWe advised our superiors to express concern about the violence against protesters, and highlight the importance of respecting free speech, democratic process[es] and peaceful dissent. We also emphasized a need for the US government to publicly express its respect for Iranian sovereignty, its desire to avoid making America the issue during a domestic Iranian protest, and its belief that it is up to Iranians to determine who Iran\u2019s leaders will be,\u201d Marashi recalled.\nMuch of that advice has been ignored by the Trump administration. In doing so, the administration has not only allowed Rouhani and the hardliners to point to a scapegoat, but has seemingly gone out of its way to raise Iranian fears that US policy, with the Saudis in tow, is focused on regime change.\n\u201cWashington would be wise to acknowledge the limits of its power inside Iran. Policymakers and pundits cannot change this simple truth: The problems are Iranian, the protesters are Iranian and the solution will be Iranian,\u201d Marashi noted.\nDr. James M.

        "title": "Regional Express enjoys 0.8% growth in 2017; Sydney is leading airport in S18",
        "raw_content": "Regional Express (Rex) was the fifth largest provider of domestic capacity in Australia in 2017 and operates a fleet of more than 50 Saab 340s. The airline was awarded the route licence to operate passenger air services between Port Augusta and Adelaide after the previous operator exited the route in May 2017. At the launch on 11 September last year, Port Augusta ground staff posed with Rex Sales Manager South Australia Kylie Good (second from left) and Port Augusta Mayor Sam Johnson (middle).\nRegional Express (Rex) is a regional Australian operator focused purely on domestic flying in its home market. Rex may mean king in Latin, but it\u2019s Qantas that wears the crown as the largest provider of domestic seats. However regional turboprop operator Rex is a major player in the Australian market and was the fifth largest provider of domestic capacity in 2017, behind Qantas, Virgin Australia, Jetstar Airways and Tigerair Australia. It should be noted that Rex is the only all-turboprop operator among these carrier\u2019s and that it displaces Tigerair Australia to claim fourth spot when the carriers are measured in terms of the number of domestic flights offered in 2017, rather than the sum of seats. According to ch-aviation Rex\u2019s current single-type fleet consists of 52 active Saab 340s plus one inactive aircraft.\nASKs on the up\nRex has seen three consecutive years of growth in terms of available seat kilometres (ASKs) across its non-stop network. This follows a five-year period of relatively flat growth. From 2010 to 2015, the airline\u2019s annual ASKs only increased by 0.3%, with this period encapsulated by marginal year-on-year increases or cuts of less than 1.0%. From 2015 to 2017 the carrier\u2019s ASKs jumped up by 12%, thanks largely to an 11% boost in 2016.\nThe available two-way capacity on all direct Rex services increased from 2.12 million in 2008 to 2.48 million in 2017. This represents a 17% increase in available seats over the period. There were three year-on-year declines in capacity across the airline\u2019s network between 2008 and 2017, with these taking place in 2009, 2013 and 2014. The largest cuts were still relatively marginal at 1.3% in 2009, and corresponded with the height of the global recession. There were six year-on-year increases in capacity between 2008 and 2017, with the largest single 12 month growth spurt taking place in 2016 when seat numbers rose by 10.3%.\nSydney reigns supreme in Rex network\nAccording to OAG data, Rex will offer direct scheduled services from 59 Australian airports during the week commencing 21 August. Each of these airports will see at least two Rex departures per week during the peak summer period. The carrier\u2019s top 12 airports, based on weekly departing seats in peak S18, include four of the five busiest airports in Australia, based on passenger numbers in 2017: Sydney (biggest Australian airport), Adelaide (fifth), Melbourne (second) and Perth (fourth) make up the top four departure points in the Rex network this summer. Brisbane was the only large hub missing from the top 12. Sydney is the largest airport on the airline\u2019s departures board in peak S18, accounting for 20% of its total non-stop capacity. Rex will serve 18 direct destinations from Sydney during the week commencing 21 August, offering 285 combined departures. Its busiest route from Australia\u2019s largest hub, is the 365-kilometre connection to Wagga Wagga, also in New South Wales, which it serves with 32 weekly flights.\nFive of Rex\u2019s top 12 airports witnessed an increase in weekly capacity from the airline for S18, compared to the equivalent period last year (highlighted in green). The strongest growth has taken place at Perth with weekly seat numbers on non-stop services up 32%. This was mainly due to the airline introducing two new direct connections to Carnarvon and Monkey Mia from the Western Australia hub since last summer. Seven of the top 12 airports have seen a decline in capacity from Rex (highlighted in red). The biggest cuts have come at Mount Gambier and Albury, where departing weekly seat numbers were down 12% and 9.5% respectively compared to peak S17.\nMain hub links dominate direct routes\nHere at anna.aero we typically like to highlight top 12s \u2013 an airline\u2019s top 12 airports or country markets for example. In this case we have identified the top 16 direct Rex routes, since six of them have exactly the same weekly frequencies and capacity this summer. Is noticeable that all 16 routes involve links from secondary or tertiary regional airports to four of Australia\u2019s top five facilities: Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide. Sydney alone features in nine of the carrier\u2019s top 16 links, with three serving Adelaide, and two each linking to Melbourne and Perth. The largest single non-stop connection in the Rex network is the link from Adelaide to Port Lincoln. This route is operated 49 times weekly in peak S18 according to OAG schedules, with between five and eight daily rotations depending on the day of week.\nThe majority of Rex\u2019s top-ranked non-stop routes have seen an increase or no change in weekly capacity since peak S17. The largest boost in direct seats has come on the Moruya \u2013 Sydney sector with Rex increasing its weekly frequencies from 12 to 18, and subsequently adding 50% more capacity. Five of the top 16 routes have seen a decline in weekly seat numbers since last summer (highlighted in red). The biggest decline has come on the Adelaide \u2013 Mount Gambier link, with a cut in weekly flights from 23 to 18 and a corresponding 22% drop in capacity.\nMutil-stop itineraries\nIt should be noted that only direct, non-stop routes have been included in the analysis. As a regional carrier serving some remote communities, Rex also operates a number of multi-stop itineraries. As an example, the carrier operates 18 direct flights per week from Moruya to Sydney in peak S18, but only offers 12 non-stop connections in the opposite direction. This is because it also operates six flights from Sydney to Moruya via Merimbula. A number of Rex\u2019 direct airport pairs subsequently form just one part of larger itineraries.\nOAG schedules show that Rex will serve 59 Australian airports with at least two departures during the week commencing 21 August. Sydney is its largest operating airport with 285 weekly departures this summer. As a regional carrier serving remote communities, Rex operates a number of multi-stop services. Some of its direct airport pairs are subsequently just one part of a larger itinerary.\nUK-Germany market enjoys six straight years of growth; flag carriers lead the way, London Heathrow is top airport\nABX ADL ALH ARM Australia BHQ BHS BWT DBO EPR GFF MEL MGB MQL MYA NTL OAG PER PLO Regional Express Regional Express (REX) SYD WGA WYA",

        "raw_content": "Medical marijuana measure certified for November ballot\nLITTLE ROCK \u2014 Arkansas voters will get to decide in November whether to legalize marijuana for medical use in the state.\nSecretary of State Mark Martin announced Wednesday that supporters of the proposed Arkansas Medical Marijuana Act had submitted the required 62,507 valid signatures of registered voters to qualify the measure for the Nov. 6 general election ballot.\nMartin\u2019s office said it stopped counting after certifyng more than 69,000 signatures.\nMembers of Arkansans for Compassionate Care fell just over 26,000 signatures short of the certification threshold in its first submission to the secretary of state July 6. The group submitted more than 74,000 additional signatures on Aug. 13.\n\"This is the most wonderful news I\u2019ve had in a long time,\" said Melissa Fults, a spokeswoman for the group. \"It\u2019s been a long time coming. This is the beginning of our independence. There are a lot of patients that have to choose between suffering and breaking the law. This makes it one step closer to (a time) we don\u2019t have to make that choice anymore.\"\nThe proposed initiated act would allow up to 30 medical marijuana dispensaries in the state but would give cities and counties the option of banning them. The marijuana would only be available to people with prescriptions for certain health conditions, including chronic pain, glaucoma, Hepatitis C and those who are terminally ill.\nThe proposal would allow limited cultivation of marijuana by a qualifying patient, or the patient\u2019s designated caregiver, if the patient lives more than five miles from a dispensary.\nFults said the campaign to win voter approval of the measure would continue to be a grassroots effort.\n\"From this point, it\u2019ll be educating people about the benefits,\" she said.\nThe Christian conservative Family Council opposes the ballot initiative, calling the provision to allow certain people to grow their own marijuana a back-door means of legalizing the drug, which the group also notes is still illegal under federal law.\nJerry Cox, Family Council executive director, said the group\u2019s political arm, the Family Council Action Committee, is reviewing all of its options for fighting the proposal, including a possible legal challenge.",

My photographic subjects have ranged from the wilds of Patagonia to the baron tundra of the Arctic to the lush forests of Pennsylvania and to the ancient civilizations of China. The American Southwest has always been a favorite. My photographic vision is to share the beauty of our world.. I hope that each of you viewing my photographs will see that these landscapes are irreplaceable and that we must all do our best to protect these precious lands. Many of these locations are under attack . Those of us that love and enjoy these landscapes must insure that the highest level of protection is accorded all of these public treasures so that future generations can see and experience the same awe and amazement that we do today\nI attended the Professional Photography Program at the Rochester Institute of Technology and was graduated from the Pennsylvania State University with a BS in Finance. I have shared my photographs in numerous solo exhibitions and have had my work selected for many local, state, regional and national juried shows. During these juried shows I have been honored with over a dozen Best of Show/First Place Awards. In 2007 I was selected as one of the North Rim Grand Canyon Artists in residence. One of my photographs from this experience hangs in the permanent collection of the Grand Canyon National Park Museum. My work has also been published in numerous publications including Pennsylvania Magazine and the National Parks Magazine. I have numerous photographs handing in public and private collections including Andrews Air Force Base.\nThe photographs in this exhibit were created using both film and digital cameras. All prints have been made using archival printing processes.",

        "raw_content": "Employment Law Case Law NATIONWIDE MUTUAL INSURANCE CO. et al. v. DARDEN- Supreme Court of United States\nNATIONWIDE MUTUAL INSURANCE CO. et al.\nSouter, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.\nGeorge Robinson Ragsdale argued the cause for petitioners. With him on the briefs were Gordon E. McCutchan, Robert M. Parsons, Craig G. Dalton, Jr., Francis M. Gregory, Jr., and Margaret M. Richardson.\nChristopher J. Wright argued the cause for the United States as amicus curiae urging reversal. With him on the brief were Solicitor General Starr, Deputy Solicitor General Mahoney, Allen H. Feldman, and Elizabeth Hopkins.\nMarion G. Follin III argued the cause and filed a brief for respondent.[*]\nIn this case we construe the term \u201cemployee\u201d as it appears in \u00a7 3(6) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 88 Stat. 834, 29 U. S. C. \u00a7 1002(6), and read it to incorporate traditional agency law criteria for identifying master-servant relationships.\nFrom 1962 through 1980, respondent Robert Darden operated an insurance agency according to the terms of several contracts he signed with petitioners Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co. et al. Darden promised to sell only Nationwide insurance policies, and, in exchange, Nationwide agreed to pay him commissions on his sales and enroll him in a company retirement scheme called the \u201cAgent\u2019s Security Compensation Plan\u201d (Plan). The Plan consisted of two different programs: the \u201cDeferred Compensation Incentive Credit Plan,\u201d under which Nationwide annually credited an agent\u2019s retirement account with a sum based on his business performance, and the \u201cExtended Earnings Plan,\u201d under which Nationwide paid an agent, upon retirement or termination, a sum equal to the total of his policy renewal fees for the previous 12 months.\nSuch were the contractual terms, however, that Darden would forfeit his entitlement to the Plan\u2019s benefits if, within a year of his termination and 25 miles of his prior business location, he sold insurance for Nationwide\u2019s competitors. The contracts also disqualified him from receiving those benefits if, after he stopped representing Nationwide, he ever induced a Nationwide policyholder to cancel one of its policies.\nIn November 1980, Nationwide exercised its contractual right to end its relationship with Darden. A month later, Darden became an independent insurance agent and, doing business from his old office, sold insurance policies for several of Nationwide\u2019s competitors. The company reacted with the charge that his new business activities disqualified him from receiving the Plan benefits to which he would have been entitled otherwise. Darden then sued for the benefits, which he claimed were nonforfeitable because already vested under the terms of ERISA. 29 U. S. C. \u00a7 1053(a).\nDarden brought his action under 29 U. S. C. \u00a7 1132(a), which enables a benefit plan \u201cparticipant\u201d to enforce the substantive provisions of ERISA. The Act elsewhere defines \u201cparticipant\u201d as \u201cany employee or former employee of an employer . . . who is or may become eligible to receive a benefit of any type from an employee benefit plan . . . .\u201d \u00a7 1002(7). Thus, Darden\u2019s ERISA claim can succeed only if he was Nationwide\u2019s \u201cemployee,\u201d a term the Act defines as \u201cany individual employed by an employer.\u201d \u00a7 1002(6).\nIt was on this point that the District Court granted summary judgment to Nationwide. After applying common-law agency principles and, to an extent unspecified, our decision in United States v. Silk, 331 U. S. 704 (1947), the court found that \u201c`the total factual context\u2019 of Mr. Darden\u2019s relationship with Nationwide shows that he was an independent contractor and not an employee.\u201d App. to Pet. for Cert. 47a, 50a, quoting NLRB v. United Ins. Co. of America, 390 U. S. 254 (1968).\nThe United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit vacated. Darden v. Nationwide Mutual Ins. Co., 796 F. 2d 701 (1986). After observing that \u201cDarden most probably would not qualify as an employee\u201d under traditional principles of agency law, id., at 705, it found the traditional definition inconsistent with the \u201c`declared policy and purposes\u2019 \u201d of ERISA, id., at 706, quoting Silk, supra, at 713, and NLRB v. Hearst Publications, Inc., 322 U. S. 111, 131-132 (1944), and specifically with the congressional statement of purpose found in \u00a7 2 of the Act, 29 U. S. C. \u00a7 1001.[1] It therefore held that an ERISA plaintiff can qualify as an \u201cemployee\u201d simply by showing \u201c(1) that he had a reasonable expectation that he would receive [pension] benefits, (2) that he relied on this expectation, and (3) that he lacked the economic bargaining power to contract out of [benefit plan] forfeiture provisions.\u201d 922 F. 2d 203, 205 (CA4 1991) (summarizing 796 F. 2d 701 (CA4 1986)). The court remanded the case to the District Court, which then found that Darden had been Nationwide\u2019s \u201cemployee\u201d under the standard set by the Court of Appeals. 717 F. Supp. 388 (EDNC 1989). The Court of Appeals affirmed. 922 F. 2d 203 (1991).[2]\nIn due course, Nationwide filed a petition for certiorari, which we granted on October 15, 1991. 502 U. S. 905. We now reverse.\nWe have often been asked to construe the meaning of \u201cemployee\u201d where the statute containing the term does not helpfully define it. Most recently we confronted this problem in Community for Creative Non-Violence v. Reid, 490 U. S. 730 (1989), a case in which a sculptor and a nonprofit group each claimed copyright ownership in a statue the group had commissioned from the artist. The dispute ultimately turned on whether, by the terms of \u00a7 101 of the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U. S. C. \u00a7 101, the statue had been \u201cprepared by an employee within the scope of his or her employment.\u201d Because the Copyright Act nowhere defined the term \u201cemployee,\u201d we unanimously applied the \u201cwell established\u201d principle that\n\u201c[w]here Congress uses terms that have accumulated settled meaning under . . . the common law, a court must infer, unless the statute otherwise dictates, that Congress means to incorporate the established meaning of these terms. . . . In the past, when Congress has used the term `employee\u2019 without defining it, we have concluded that Congress intended to describe the conventional master-servant relationship as understood by common-law agency doctrine. See, e. g., Kelley v. Southern Pacific Co., 419 U. S. 318, 322-323 (1974); Baker v. Texas & Pacific R. Co., 359 U. S. 227, 228 (1959) (per curiam); Robinson v. Baltimore & Ohio R. Co., 237 U. S. 84, 94 (1915).\u201d 490 U. S., at 739-740 (internal quotation marks omitted).\nWhile we supported this reading of the Copyright Act with other observations, the general rule stood as independent authority for the decision.\nSo too should it stand here. ERISA\u2019s nominal definition of \u201cemployee\u201d as \u201cany individual employed by an employer,\u201d 29 U. S. C. \u00a7 1002(6), is completely circular and explains nothing. As for the rest of the Act, Darden does not cite, and we do not find, any provision either giving specific guidance on the term\u2019s meaning or suggesting that construing it to incorporate traditional agency law principles would thwart the congressional design or lead to absurd results. Thus, we adopt a common-law test for determining who qualifies as an \u201cemployee\u201d under ERISA,[3] a test we most recently summarized in Reid:\n\u201cIn determining whether a hired party is an employee under the general common law of agency, we consider the hiring party\u2019s right to control the manner and means by which the product is accomplished. Among the other factors relevant to this inquiry are the skill required; the source of the instrumentalities and tools; the location of the work; the duration of the relationship between the parties; whether the hiring party has the right to assign additional projects to the hired party; the extent of the hired party\u2019s discretion over when and how long to work; the method of payment; the hired party\u2019s role in hiring and paying assistants; whether the work is part of the regular business of the hiring party; whether the hiring party is in business; the provision of employee benefits; and the tax treatment of the hired party.\u201d 490 U. S., at 751-752 (footnotes omitted).\nCf. Restatement (Second) of Agency \u00a7 220(2) (1958) (listing nonexhaustive criteria for identifying master-servant relationship); Rev. Rul. 87-41, 1987-1 Cum. Bull. 296, 298-299 (setting forth 20 factors as guides in determining whether an individual qualifies as a common-law \u201cemployee\u201d in various tax law contexts). Since the common-law test contains \u201cno shorthand formula or magic phrase that can be applied to find the answer, . . . all of the incidents of the relationship must be assessed and weighed with no one factor being decisive.\u201d NLRB v. United Ins. Co. of America, 390 U. S., at 258.\nIn taking its different tack, the Court of Appeals cited NLRB v. Hearst Publications, Inc., 322 U. S., at 120-129, and United States v. Silk, 331 U. S., at 713, for the proposition that \u201cthe content of the term `employee\u2019 in the context of a particular federal statute is `to be construed \u201cin the light of the mischief to be corrected and the end to be attained.\u201d` \u201d Darden, 796 F. 2d, at 706, quoting Silk, supra, at 713, in turn quoting Hearst, supra, at 124. But Hearst and Silk, which interpreted \u201cemployee\u201d for purposes of the National Labor Relations Act and Social Security Act, respectively, are feeble precedents for unmooring the term from the common law. In each case, the Court read \u201cemployee,\u201d which neither statute helpfully defined,[4] to imply something broader than the common-law definition; after each opinion, Congress amended the statute so construed to demonstrate that the usual common-law principles were the keys to meaning. See United Ins. Co., supra, at 256 (\u201cCongressional reaction to [Hearst] was adverse and Congress passed an amendment. . . [t]he obvious purpose of [which] was to have the . . . courts apply general agency principles in distinguishing between employees and independent contractors under the Act\u201d); Social Security Act of 1948, ch. 468, \u00a7 1(a), 62 Stat. 438 (1948) (amending statute to provide that term \u201cemployee\u201d \u201cdoes not include . . . any individual who, under the usual common-law rules applicable in determining the employeremployee relationship, has the status of an independent contractor\u201d) (emphasis added); see also United States v. W. M. Webb, Inc., 397 U. S. 179, 183-188 (1970) (discussing congressional reaction to Silk ).\nTo be sure, Congress did not, strictly speaking, \u201coverrule\u201d our interpretation of those statutes, since the Constitution invests the Judiciary, not the Legislature, with the final power to construe the law. But a principle of statutory construction can endure just so many legislative revisitations, and Reid `s presumption that Congress means an agency law definition for \u201cemployee\u201d unless it clearly indicates otherwise signaled our abandonment of Silk `s emphasis on construing that term \u201c`in the light of the mischief to be corrected and the end to be attained.\u2019 \u201d Silk, supra, at 713, quoting Hearst, supra, at 124.\nAt oral argument, Darden tried to subordinate Reid to Rutherford Food Corp. v. McComb, 331 U. S. 722 (1947), which adopted a broad reading of \u201cemployee\u201d under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). And amicus United States, while rejecting Darden\u2019s position, also relied on Rutherford Food for the proposition that, when enacting ERISA, Congress must have intended a modified common-law definition of \u201cemployee\u201d that would advance, in a way not defined, the Act\u2019s \u201cremedial purposes.\u201d Brief for United States as Ami- cus Curiae 15-21.[5] But Rutherfood Food supports neither position. The definition of \u201cemployee\u201d in the FLSA evidently derives from the child labor statutes, see Rutherford Food, supra, at 728, and, on its face, goes beyond its ERISA counterpart. While the FLSA, like ERISA, defines an \u201cemployee\u201d to include \u201cany individual employed by an employer,\u201d it defines the verb \u201cemploy\u201d expansively to mean \u201csuffer or permit to work.\u201d 52 Stat. 1060, \u00a7 3, codified at 29 U. S. C. \u00a7\u00a7 203(e), (g). This latter definition, whose striking breadth we have previously noted, Rutherford Food, supra, at 728, stretches the meaning of \u201cemployee\u201d to cover some parties who might not qualify as such under a strict application of traditional agency law principles. ERISA lacks any such provision, however, and the textual asymmetry between the two statutes precludes reliance on FLSA cases when construing ERISA\u2019s concept of \u201cemployee.\u201d\nQuite apart from its inconsistency with our precedents, the Fourth Circuit\u2019s analysis reveals an approach infected with circularity and unable to furnish predictable results. Applying the first element of its test, which ostensibly enquires into an employee\u2019s \u201cexpectations,\u201d the Court of Appeals concluded that Nationwide had \u201ccreated a reasonable expectation on the `employees\u2019 part that benefits would be paid to them in the future,\u201d Darden, 796 F. 2d, at 706, by establishing \u201ca comprehensive retirement benefits program for its insurance agents,\u201d id., at 707. The court thought it was simply irrelevant that the forfeiture clause in Darden\u2019s contract \u201climited\u201d his expectation of receiving pension benefits, since \u201cit is precisely that sort of employer-imposed condition on the employee\u2019s anticipations that Congress intended to outlaw with the enactment of ERISA.\u201d Id., at 707, n. 7 (emphasis added). Thus, the Fourth Circuit\u2019s test would turn not on a claimant\u2019s actual \u201cexpectations,\u201d which the court effectively deemed inconsequential, ibid., but on his statutory entitlement to relief, which itself depends on his very status as an \u201cemployee.\u201d This begs the question.\nThis circularity infects the test\u2019s second prong as well, which considers the extent to which a claimant has relied on his \u201cexpectation\u201d of benefits by \u201cremaining for `long years,\u2019 or a substantial period of time, in the `employer\u2019s\u2019 service, and by foregoing other significant means of providing for [his] retirement.\u201d Id., at 706. While this enquiry is ostensibly factual, we have seen already that one of its objects may not be: to the extent that actual \u201cexpectations\u201d are (as in Darden\u2019s case) unnecessary to relief, the nature of a claimant\u2019s required \u201creliance\u201d is left unclear. Moreover, any enquiry into \u201creliance,\u201d whatever it might entail, could apparently lead to different results for claimants holding identical jobs and enrolled in identical plans. Because, for example, Darden failed to make much independent provision for his retirement, he satisfied the \u201creliance\u201d prong of the Fourth Circuit\u2019s test, see 922 F. 2d, at 206, whereas a more provident colleague who signed exactly the same contracts, but saved for a rainy day, might not.\nAny such approach would severely compromise the capacity of companies like Nationwide to figure out who their \u201cemployees\u201d are and what, by extension, their pension-fund obligations will be. To be sure, the traditional agency law criteria offer no paradigm of determinacy. But their application generally turns on factual variables within an employer\u2019s knowledge, thus permitting categorical judgments about the \u201cemployee\u201d status of claimants with similar job descriptions. Agency law principles comport, moreover, with our recent precedents and with the common understanding, reflected in those precedents, of the difference between an employee and an independent contractor.\nWhile the Court of Appeals noted that \u201cDarden most probably would not qualify as an employee\u201d under traditional agency law principles, Darden, supra, at 705, it did not actually decide that issue. We therefore reverse the judgment and remand the case to that court for proceedings consistent with this opinion.\n[*] Edward N. Delaney and Russell A. Hollrah filed a brief for the National Association of Independent Insurers as amicus curiae urging reversal.\n[1] The Court of Appeals cited Congress\u2019s declaration that \u201cmany employees with long years of employment are losing anticipated retirement benefits,\u201d that employee benefit plans \u201chave become an important factor affecting the stability of employment and the successful development of industrial relations,\u201d and that ERISA was necessary to \u201cassur[e] the equitable character of such plans and their financial soundness.\u201d 796 F. 2d, at 706, quoting 29 U. S. C. \u00a7 1001. None of these passages deals specifically with the scope of ERISA\u2019s class of beneficiaries.\n[2] The Court of Appeals also held that the Deferred Compensation Plan was a pension plan subject to regulation under ERISA, but that the Extended Earnings Plan was not. 922 F. 2d, at 208. We denied Darden\u2019s cross-petition for certiorari, which sought review of that conclusion. 502 U. S. 906 (1991).\n[3] As in Reid, we construe the term to incorporate \u201cthe general common law of agency, rather than . . . the law of any particular State.\u201d Community for Creative Non-Violence v. Reid, 490 U. S. 730, 740 (1989).\n[4] The National Labor Relations Act simply defined \u201cemployee\u201d to mean (in relevant part) \u201cany employee.\u201d 49 Stat. 450 (1935).

Let\u2019s crack on.\nNo change at the top of the ARIA singles chart this week.\nAfter shifting from No.5 to No.1 on last week\u2019s countdown, Drake maintains his lead over all comers with his latest single \u2018God\u2019s Plan\u2019.\nEd Sheeran\u2019s going nowhere in a hurry, however, steady in position two with \u2018Perfect\u2019.\nPost Malone edges higher with \u2018I Fall Apart\u2019, however (No.4 to No.3), but Rudimental and co are really on the move with their single \u2018These Days\u2019, which bullets from No.10 to No.4.\nDua Lipa\u2019s also on the up with her latest track \u2018IDGAF\u2019 (No.16 to No.11), which is now on the precipice of becoming her third top ten hit down under, joining \u2018Be The One\u2019 and \u2018New Rules\u2019.\nThe week\u2019s first certification belongs to Camila Cabello, whose former No.1 smash \u2018Havana\u2019 picks up its sixth platinum certification in Australian, meaning that it\u2019s climbed over the 420,000 units sales mark here.\nThe highest new entry this week is at No.18 and it comes courtesy of The Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar and their single \u2018Pray For Me\u2019.\nKendrick\u2019s also into the top 20 himself this week with \u2018All The Stars\u2019 (featuring SZA), which leaps from No.30 to No.19.\nJustin Timberlake and Chris Stapleton\u2019s \u2018Say Something\u2019 leaps 12 places from last week\u2019s No.36 debut and Angus & Julia Stone score a platinum certification for their top 30 hit \u2018Chateau\u2019 (No.29), after selling in excess of 70,000 units.\nKendrick Lamar\u2019s \u2018Humble\u2019 takes a tumble (you\u2019re welcome) from No.20 to No.32, but Bazzi\u2019s single \u2018Mine\u2019, which is splashed all over radio station playlists, rockets from last week\u2019s No.84 debut to No.33.\nVance Joy returns to the ARIA top 50, this time with his latest single \u2018We\u2019re Going Home\u2019, which improves from last week\u2019s peak of No.55 to No.41, a jump of 14 places.\nLorde\u2019s \u2018Homemade Dynamite (remix)\u2019 hits platinum at No.42 and, with his album flying in the shops, \u2018Filthy\u2019, the lead single from Justin Timberlake\u2019s new album \u2018Man Of The Woods\u2019, jumps from No.57 to No.44.\nInto the top 50 (No.64 to No.45) for the first time this week is \u2018For You\u2019, the Liam Payne/Rita Ora single from the \u2018Fifty Shades Freed\u2019 soundtrack. Its previous best was No.58.\nZedd & Grey\u2019s track \u2018The Middle\u2019 is up from last week\u2019s No.58 debut to No.50.\nMelbourne\u2019s own Tyron Hapi jumps 14 places to a new peak of No.60 with his breakout hit \u2018Anyway\u2019, but Vance Joy\u2019s \u2018Lay It On Me\u2019 slips 15 to No.62.\nKylie Minogue\u2019s \u2018Dancing\u2019 returns to this week\u2019s countdown, with a re-entry at No.64 (its previous peak was No.46).\nThere\u2019s a No.67 debut for Peking Duk\u2019s \u2018Wasted\u2019 (just as its predecessor \u2018Let You Down\u2019 exits the top 50), a 20 place drop for Gang Of Youths\u2019 \u2018Let Me Down Easy\u2019 (No.49 on debut to No.69) and a new entry for Ofenbach and Nick Waterhouses\u2019s \u2018Katchi\u2019 in the No.78 spot.\nGlades hits the top 100 with \u2018Do Right\u2019 (No.84 on debut), Kita Alexander\u2019s \u2018Hotel\u2019 is now platinum accredited (No.86) and P!nk\u2019s \u2018Beautiful Trauma\u2019 slides another 14 places to No.90.\nLorde\u2019s \u2018Green Light\u2019 plunges 28 after placing in the Hottest 100 and there\u2019s a 28 place fall for Calum Scott\u2019s \u2018You Are The Reason\u2019, just as a new version (featuring Leona Lewis) sees the light of day (read more about that and his impending promotional visit in this morning\u2019s edition of The Purge).\nSo first things first\u2026 Justin Timberlake\u2019s new album has debuted at\u2026 No.2.\nNaturally, his team at Sony Music will be disappointed in not being able to get it into pole position.\nBut what might really rub salt into the wound this week will be that the album that\u2019s held it out of top spot (the soundtrack for \u2018The Greatest Showman\u2019) has also picked up a fresh new platinum certification. It\u2019s now sold in excess of 70,000 units down under.\nEd Sheeran is still in the top five (No.3), while Brisbane\u2019s DZ Deathrays claim a No.4 debut with their new long player \u2018Bloody Lovely\u2019 (their highest chart position yet).\nHe\u2019s currently in the African jungle as part of the 2018 season of I\u2019m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here\u2019, so Shannon Noll is probably blissfully unaware that his new album \u2018Unbroken\u2019 has debuted in the No.7 position on the ARIA albums chart. It\u2019s his first album in six and a half years, but his fifth successive top ten.\nThe new Migos album picks up the pace after debuting last week at No.28.

It is now recognised as one of the best baseball facility of its type in Australia. Apart from club and state-based competitions, it hosts Australian under-aged events, the annual Victorian Masters, Provincial Carnivals and international \"Friendship\" series. In February 2006 and again in 2007, it was the venue for the Japanese Chiba Lotte Marines ball club's pre-season training camp. The Marines played games against full-strength Australian teams during their stay. The Geelong Baseball Centre will host the baseball competition for the 2009 Australian Masters Games.\nThe Geelong complex has four baseball grounds, two of which were substantially upgraded in 2007 as well as an aquatic centre which opened in the same year.\nThe jewel in the crown is of course the main stadium. It includes terraced seating for around 1,500 however it is planned that this will be extended considerably over time. Other features include lighting up to international standard, electronic scoreboard and associated infrastructure in the form of elevated commentary box, outfield sightboards, bullpen tunnels, meeting and dining areas and an indoor training facility. The main stadium is secured and there is ample car parking space.\nGeelong is around 40 minutes drive from Melbourne and 50 minutes from Ballarat, so it is quite central and accessible. The baseball complex will become even more so when the Geelong city by-pass is completed, allowing traffic more direct access (the complex is on the south-western side of Geelong).\nLocation: Geelong, Victoria Address:\nRecord Crowd: Highest Crowd since 1/1/2003:\nBuilt: 2002 Redeveloped: 2007\nSports Played: Baseball Home Teams:",

        "raw_content": "Mark Zuckerberg As Autocratic Leadership? Essay\nThe man who founded the company in his Harvard dorm room in 2004 is now its CEO, chairman of the board and controlling shareholder. In its regulatory filing, Facebook credits Mr. Zuckerberg with the vision to create what has become the largest social network on Earth. But as Facebook changes into a public company, its 27-year-old founder will still have final say over all major decisions, largely unchallengeable by investors or the board of directors.\nIn my study of organizational behaviour, I have yet to come across one who was considered great who did not also have a significant body count of ex-employees claiming that they were autocratic and mean. Examples include Jack Welch, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Larry Ellison. My theory is that the level of personal demanding needed to drive a global enterprise to a position of world-changing leadership is one that can be too much for some people. Such leaders do not tend to provide much ...view middle of the document...\nZuckerbeg is the youngest member of the board, by about a decade and it is unclear how much influence they will have over the man who founded the company.\nSince he founded Facebook eight years ago in a Harvard dorm room, Zuckerberg has methodically consolidated his control over the company. Thanks to his ownership of B shares, Zuckerberg controls 57% of the company\u2019s voting power. Once the company goes public, this structure will allow him to single-handedly decide issues that require a shareholder vote, including board elections and merger decisions. The 27-year-old Zuckerberg even has the right to appoint his own successor (Time. 2012).\nThe major problem is about moral hazard, or incentives. By curtailing shareholder rights and board accountability, and specifically by splitting share class with drastic differences in voting power, Facebook risks creating two distinct shareholder bases with divergent interests. This, in turn, may and probably will fuel proxy contests and boardroom or family struggles that ultimately will screw common shareholders according to Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) (Forbes, 2012).\nThe pros and cons of autocratic leadership are clear for certain situations. For example, emergencies require a strong leader to keep order. However, in less stressful circumstances, it may be better to debate an issue before proceeding. Autocratic leaders may not be good at communication, but they sometimes have the best ideas.\nOn the other hand, autocratic leaders must take full responsibility for the results. This last part does not usually occur, and this leaves many employees unhappy and feeling undervalued. Therefore, the dynamic of the relationship in the professional environment must change to become more equal. Otherwise, you may a have strong leader with no followers or employees who have no direction.\nAgustino Fontevecchia (2012) Zuckerberg A Dictator?

        "raw_content": "One of the main perks of being based in Galicia, on the Spanish North West coast, is how close our neighbor country Portugal is. Without borders and just a mere 90 min drive away, we can enjoy the Northern region of Porto e Norte when we have a couple of days and that\u2019s why, just in the last 12 months alone, we have been there over ten times.\nTo start with, the DMO of the region itself invited us six times to explore a few different locations. Our favorite was Montanhas Magicas, but we also got to explore Miranda do Douro, Ponte de Lima, Montalegre, Mondim de Basto, and Ponte da Barca during their respective food festivals from early Winter to late Spring.\nOn the other hand, My Bookpack, a startup I got to know during Web Summit last year, did the same with the Western part of Peneda-Geres National Park and Serra da Estrela, which is not in this region but close enough.\nThen, as we do every year, we covered a couple of music festivals in Summer: Paredes de Coura for the 7th year in a row and our new obsession, Neopop festival in Viana do Castelo which, by the way, has nothing to do with pop and everything with techno.\nSweet and secret spot \u2013 Paredes de Coura Festival 2014\nI also walked a few stretches of the mighty Caminho Portugues da Costa \u2013 aka Portuguese Coastal Way to Santiago de Compostela \u2013 and got to see Porto, Maia, Vila do Conde, Caminha, Vila Nova da Cerveira, and Valen\u00e7a.\nAnd finally, on top of those ten trips, we drove to the North of Portugal a couple of times more during this period with the family to spend the day in Caminha and Valen\u00e7a.\nNow, please bear in mind that \u2013 as I said \u2013 all the aforementioned trips took place in the last 12 months alone. Taking into consideration that we are on our mid-thirties and have been based here for most of our lives; you need to trust us when we say we have done our homework and know Northern Portugal like the palm of our hand.\nNow a lot of you know of our love for all things Portugal, that we can\u2019t live without their summer music festivals, that we lived in a couple of beautiful spots within the country \u2013 Lisbon and Viseu \u2013 a few years back, and that we are pretty knowledgeable about this country. Especially, its Northern part. And so we get asked A LOT of stuff about it. From itineraries for a long weekend to long road trips, we get that you too are excited about how stunning and affordable Portugal is. We truly get it. And although we would love to answer you all with the time and dedication you deserve, sometimes it becomes impossible.\nTruly, we\u2019d love to put beautiful photography itineraries for every Portuguese region we are lucky to know well such as Sao Miguel and Alentejo. And we\u2019ll do so very soon but meanwhile, and since you asked, we\u2019ve come with a solution: We will be sharing our best spots on Trover!\nHere\u2019s the first one: A Northern Portugal road trip itinerary full of awesomeness and photography spots.

        "raw_content": "87-19: Confidentiality; Communication\nThe juvenile public defender who learns that conversations between attorneys and detainers at the juvenile detention facility are monitored by detention staff personnel has an ethical duty to represent the juvenile the same as any other client. That duty extends to protecting the juveniles right to effective counsel, which includes privileged communications.\nThe inquiring attorney has discovered that conversations between public defender attorneys and detainees at the Juvenile Detention Facility in X County, held in \u201cQuiet Rooms\u201d segregated for private conferences between defender attorneys and detainees, were being monitored by Detention Staff personnel. The inquiring attorney has notified the Presiding Judge of the Juvenile Court about the monitoring, and discontinued further client conferences in the Quiet Rooms until all monitoring ceases.\nHas the inquiring attorney any further ethical duties beyond notifying the Presiding Judge of the monitoring and discontinuing client conferences until privacy is assured?\nER 1.6(a). Confidentiality of Information\nER 1.14(a). Client Under a Disability\nThe right to counsel in juvenile proceedings is constitutionally protected. In re Gault, 387 U.S. 1, 87 S. Ct.1428, 18 L. Ed. 2d 527 (1967). The lawyer has an ethical duty to represent the juvenile the same as in any normal lawyer-client relationship. ER 1.14(a). The right to counsel extends to proper procedures assuring that right in addition to the mere appointment of counsel. See State v. Yard, 109 Ariz. 198, 200, 507 P.2d 123, 125 (1973). Privileged communications between attorney and client are central, not only to the client's procedural guarantee of effective counsel, but to the entire justice system. See State v. Holsinger, 124 Ariz. 18, 22, 601 P.2d 1054, 1058 (1979).\nThe ethical duties of the inquiring attorney to her clients may be examined separately as to three classes of clients: (1) those present and future clients as to whom conferences have yet to be held; (2) those present clients conferences with whom have been held in the Quiet Rooms; and (3) former clients whose cases may have been prejudicially impacted by the monitoring of the Quiet Room conferences.\n1. Future Conferences\nUnder the Rules of the Supreme Court of Arizona, an Arizona attorney has an obligation to maintain inviolate the confidences and preserve the secrets of a client. Rule 41(f), 17A A.R.S. Because of that obligation, the attorney may not reveal any information relating to the representation of the client without client consent. ER 1.6(a). Because the inquiring attorney is aware of the monitoring, any further conferences with clients prior to a guarantee of their confidentiality would violate ER 1.6(a). The inquiring Attorney\u2019s notifying the Presiding Judge of the monitoring and ceasing further conferences with clients in the Quiet Rooms until the monitoring is discontinued satisfies the confidentiality duty.\nDiscontinuing conferences, however, is only half of the attorney's obligation. ER 1.3 provides that a lawyer shall act with reasonable diligence and promptness in representing a client. The failure to hold any conferences would prejudice the interests of the client. And, the longer the delay, the greater the risk. Consequently, the inquiring attorney has an affirmative duty to push the Presiding Judge and Detention Facility personnel for a truly confidential area to confer with clients, to the extent of petitioning the court for such protection.\n2. Present Clients, Prior Conferences\nThe Arizona Supreme Court on repeated occasions has stated that, under Arizona law, the right to counsel includes the right to consult in private with an attorney. Effective representation is not possible without the right of an accused defendant to confer in private with his or her attorney. State v. Warner, 150 Ariz. 123, 127, 722 P.2d 291, 295 (1986), State v. Holland, 147 Ariz. 453, 455, 711 P.2d 592, 594 (1935). The monitoring of juvenile detainees' communications with counsel would seem to violate this protection under Arizona law. In Warner, the Supreme Court went on to state that the right to private consultation with counsel prevails regardless of the state's purpose for the intrusion. (150 Ariz. at 127, 722 P.2d at 295) ER 1.1 provides that the lawyer shall represent the client in a competent manner. ER 1.3 further dictates that such competent representation shall be carried out in a reasonably prompt and diligent fashion. Existing clients of the inquiring attorney who have unknowingly engaged in monitored conferences have suffered a technical violation of their right to counsel. With respect to these clients, files should be examined in an attempt to determine the extent of potential prejudice. Further, if appropriate, cases should be brought before the court to determine a suitable remedy for any prejudicial violation.\n3.Former Clients\nThe determination of the inquiring attorney's ethical obligation to former clients whose cases may have been prejudicially impacted by the monitoring is more difficult. Ethical considerations must be tempered with practical concerns such as the inability to locate former clients, possible mootness of remedy of juveniles who have become adults, and uncertainty whether monitoring in fact occurred. Certainly not all former clients, even those involved in the monitoring, were prejudiced.\nAn attorney's duty of confidentiality extends to former clients. ER 1.6, Comment. ER 1.16(d) provides that, after termination of representation, a lawyer shall take steps reasonably practicable to protect a client's interests. Finally, ER 1.4 requires that a lawyer communicate with a client to keep the client reasonably informed as to the status of the case. At a minimum, former clients still subject to possible juvenile jurisdiction and who were prejudicially affected by the monitoring should be notified so to alert them to the possibility that their interests may have been prejudiced. Any follow-up action after such notice would depend upon whether the former client again seeks representation by the inquiring attorney. If so, the ethical duties would extend to them the same as to any other client. If the former client seeks other counsel, the inquiring attorney should remain available to cooperate with the other counsel in defending the client's interests.\nThe committee hesitates to present a specific procedure which should be followed in giving notice to former clients. The committee also refrains, for lack of relevant facts, from rendering an opinion on whether ethical considerations require action beyond the mere giving of notice. Ethical directives must be reasonably balanced by the financial cost to the public defender's office and the maximization of benefits to former clients. Suggestions come to mind -- such as a form letter to the last available mailing address of a former client. Perhaps a procedure can be set up in conjunction with the Juvenile Court. It might also be possible to have the Juvenile Detention Facility help absorb some or all of the costs of giving notice. The ethical concern is that of protecting the rights of former clients who may have been unduly prejudiced by their inability to get full privacy of their communications with counsel.\nThe last concern of the committee pertains to the possible authorization or use of the secretive monitoring of the privileged communications. If the inquiring attorney is aware of any prosecutors, other lawyers, or judges who authorized, or who had knowledge of or took advantage of the information gained by the monitoring, she may have an ethical obligation under ER 8.3 to report such information to the appropriate professional or judicial authorities.",

        "raw_content": "Oh 2016, what a bitch you have been! When I think about the nonsense that occurred over these past 365 days my head feels like it's about to explode, but we made it! We have lived to tell the tale.\nWhen this year started I was broke, miserable and quite frankly a bit lost, but this has turned out to be the best year I've had in a decade. I just got rid of everything that didn't serve me. I forgave people who never apologised and I became confident that I am a good and deserving person. I've cried about stuff, not everything worked out how I hoped it would, and I'm still confused about certain things, but I'm happy and I feel like I've finally found some contentment and fulfilment. I believe 2017 will be a brilliant year!\nMy greatest achievement this year has been knowing myself better and with this greater understanding came more acceptance. I'm great, and I can say that with conviction now, I mean it! I finally acknowledged all the things I needed to change, the parts of me that I needed to maintain and the things I don't have that one day I hope to acquire. I made an effort. They were small and individually quite inconsequential, but the accumulation of it all has made a huge difference. I'm becoming the best version of me. My doubts about myself are melting away and I'm standing firmly for the things I believe in.\nWhat I now know for sure:\n1) The most important thing to me is love.\n2) I'm a trusting and open person.\n3) I am very blessed.\n4) I haven't always been brutally honest with myself.\n5) I find it hard to say 'no'.\n6) I don't like to make mistakes.\n7) I make loads of mistakes.\n8) I'm very talented.\n9) I'm very intense.\n10) Life is short.\nThis really has been the year for 'realising stuff'. Shout out to Kylie, always sharing her wisdom!\nAnother thing I've realised is that you can not underestimate how much other people reveal to you about yourself. Everyone I have met I appreciate, because they have taught me something. Colleagues, new friends, love interests, even those I haven't particularly liked or got on with, they have forced me to re-evaluate and be better! You go through life truly believing you are a certain way inclined until you are faced with a situation that really tests you, sometimes you surprise yourself and pass with flying colours other times you fail miserably, either way you should be coming out the other side better informed. Identifying your strengths and weaknesses, what works for you and what doesn't, what is helping and what is hindering. I truly believe life is about trial and error while we are constantly trying to find the right balance and this year I became closer to that balance than I have ever been before. Having said this I know I will have spanners thrown in the works from all directions and what 'balance' is will constantly be changing, but this isn't a negative. We as people should constantly be changing, getting better, stronger, kinder, wiser, evolving and manifesting into the best version of ourselves. We can not flourish without change so do not resist it!\nThe best decision I made this year was definitely to go into teaching. Everyday I feel like I am contributing to the betterment of this world even if it is just one pupil at a time and I honestly found my calling. Now, this is not to say that there are not many others things that I hope to do or achieve but, I know the mark that I would like to leave on the world and I know through which medium I hope to do it and that is education. With the all of my undertakings I hope I can learn and educate! In being sure of what I feel like I was sent here to do I'm even more sure about who I am and that is what I was missing, this resolve is giving me confidence I never had before!\nMy Top Three Tips for 2017:\n1) Be unapologetically yourself - Now this is easier said than done, because in order to do this you have to know who you are, but as long as you invest in yourself, are loving and kind to yourself, forgiving of yourself and totally honest with yourself you will absolutely get there!\n2) You are allowed to want to change things about yourself without being ashamed of your current state - I used to be so hard on myself. The way I would speak to myself is not the way I would ever speak to anyone I cared about and wanted to encourage. Woking with kids really brought it home, I would hear how I spoke so much life into them and realised I never took that approach with myself. I'd make mistakes and feel crap, forgetting that failing is a very integral part of life! I wanted to be better so bad, and in wanting to be better I had convinced myself that the way I was was terrible. Of course it wasn't, but until I learned to embrace myself as I was presently how would I have been able to effectively make the correct adjustments? Always remember you are amazing as you are, you just have so much more amazingness in you!\n3) Do what makes you happy - This one is so simple. Just do it! Take the trip, apply for that job, cut your hair, tell him you love him, leave if you want to, change your mind if you feel like it, and say 'no' when you mean 'no'. Not 'maybe' or 'we'll see' or 'I'll think about it'. 'NO.\" Because we all want to do as much as we can of the things that make us happy, but we should really be doing as little as possible of the things that don't.\nHAPPY NEW YEAR MY LOVES! MAKE 2017 A GOOD ONE!\n2016, 2017, twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, new year, new me, thank you, new start, fresh start, one year",

        "title": "IRS Tax Levies and Liens Fall With Audits At A 10+ Year Low in 2017",
        "raw_content": "April 3rd, 2018 by Manny Davis Filed under: Tax News\nThe IRS yesterday released the 2017 IRS Databook. It provides an overview of the IRS\u2019s activities over the past fiscal year. In other words, it includes activities from October 1st, 2016 to September 30th, 2017.\nIRS enforcement actions, which include tax levies, liens, and seizures fell in comparison to the previous year. IRS examinations dropped as well. In fact, the overall percentage of tax returns audited fell to .5% which is a level not seen since 2002, when the overall examination coverage percentage was less than half a percent or .48%.\nAlso worth mentioning, the number of new delinquent taxpayer accounts increased by 614,000 with an increase in year-end taxpayer delinquency investigations of 75,000.\nIRS Levies Declined More Than 30% in 2017\nA levy on a 3rd party by the IRS usually results in a seizure of the taxpayer\u2019s property or rights to the property. The IRS may levy a taxpayer\u2019s bank accounts, wages, accounts receivable, and more. The number of notices of levy requested on third parties dropped to 590,246 from 869,196. It represents a 32.09% drop from the previous fiscal year. The levy notices tally includes the Automated Collection System and the Field Collection Programs.\nTotal Number of Federal Tax Liens Filed Fell In 2017\nThe total number of tax liens filed by the IRS fell by a little over 5%. Total tax liens filed dropped from 470,602 to 446,378 in the fiscal year 2017. Essentially, it represents the number of requests put into the IRS Automated Lien System. The IRS generally files a tax lien when delinquent taxpayers fail to respond to balance due notice letters. Under the IRS fresh starts program, there are exceptions. Usually, the IRS will not file a tax lien if the taxpayers owe less $10,000.\nIRS Seizures of Real and Personal Property Declined by 25%\nAlthough the number of delinquent accounts increased, the number of seizures dropped by almost 26% from 436 to 323. Seizures include real property like a taxpayer\u2019s house and personal property (such as a truck or car). Although a large decrease, it shows the IRS generally does not want your house or car in most cases if you do not pay your tax bill. A large reason for this is that if the IRS sells real property, it must have equity otherwise why would the IRS sell it or auction it? The IRS normally applies a 20% reduction to the market value of real property to account for a quick sale.\nIRS Audits for Individuals Fell to the Levels Not Seen Since 2002\nThe percentage of tax returns audited has decreased from .6% to .5% from the previous year. The IRS examination coverage has not hit such a low percentage of overall tax returns since 2002 when the overall examination rate was .48%. An overall examination rate of .5% represents more than a 16.67% drop from the fiscal year 2016. In fact, such a low percent has not been seen since 2002.\nThe percentage of corporate and individual tax returns audited, unlike s-corporations or partnerships, largely accounted for the decrease in the overall number of tax returns examined.\nOverall, it seems the IRS fresh start changes coupled with IRS budget cuts has led to a decrease in IRS enforcement actions as well as examinations. In many ways, the IRS realizes that some enforcement actions may actually hinder a taxpayer from getting into compliance.\nSources: IRS Data Book 2002-2017",

The Supreme Court ruled Florida\u2019s capital punishment sentencing laws are unconstitutional, noting that judges in the state have too much power in determining a sentence. The ruling has essentially put all death penalty cases across the state on hold, as Florida lawmakers work to develop a more constitutional standard for cases involving the death penalty.\nIs the Death Penalty Currently an Option?\nAs of October 2016, any potential death penalty sentence has been put on hold in the state of Florida. However, on February 20, 2017, the Florida Supreme Court came forward and surprised much of the Florida legal community by ruling that prosecutors are now able to seek the death penalty in ongoing cases. This ruling comes in lieu of the fact that lawmakers have yet to establish any new system to address unconstitutionality of the current system.\nCurrent Issues with the Florida Death Penalty\nAmong the most prevalent concerns with Florida\u2019s current death penalty legislation is the fact that the state does require a unanimous jury decision to sentence an individual to death. This issue was brought to the attention of the nation in Hurst v. Florida when a Florida Judge sentenced the defendant, Timothy Lee Hurst, to death while only seven of the 12 jurors assigned to the case recommended the death penalty.\nThe ruling sparked outrage across the state, ultimately leading to the appeal of the case up to the United States Supreme Court. During the appeals process, the Florida legislature amended state law requiring 10 of 12 jurors to recommend capital punishment for an individual to be sentenced to death. However, during the appeals process the Supreme Court Florida mandated that laws require a unanimous jury decision in the event that the jury recommends a sentence of death.\nIn hearing the case, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor opined \u201cThe Sixth Amendment requires a jury, not a judge, to find each fact necessary to impose a sentence of death\u2026A jury\u2019s mere recommendation is not enough.\u201d Justice Sotomayor continued stating the law is unconstitutional as it leaves obligation on the judge, not the jury, to find the facts essential to imposing a sentence of capital punishment. Further, Supreme Court Justice Stephen G. Breyer noted that the Florida death penalty legislation is a violation of the Eighth Amendment protecting individuals against cruel and unusual punishment. Ultimately, these findings placed the burden on the state of Florida to revise their system a develop legislation that abides by the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling\u2013a process that the Florida legislature is attempting to comply with and is set discuss various proposals at the end of the March 2017 legislative session.\nConsult With A Criminal Defense Lawyer\nIn the event that you are charged with a crime, it is important that you immediately reach out to a criminal defense lawyer.

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Same-Sex Couples Sue To End Gay Marriage Ban In Florida | Main | Florida GOP Hopeful Skips Impeachment, Calls For Hanging The President \u00bb\nALEC was operating in the shadows until the last couple of years, but even as it's been exposed, its hold over lawmakers is still very strong. So much so that, as Progress Florida's Executive Director Mark Ferrulo writes, they even proposed an ALEC loyalty oath that, if adopted, would have asked legislators who are also ALEC state directors to swear: \u201cI will act with care and loyalty and put the interests of the organization first.\u201d\nAs everyone in Florida knows, when Rick Scott was elected in 2010, he proclaimed Florida was \"Open For Business\" and he's proved it by cutting taxes for corporations, offered incentives to lure coporate interests here under the guise of job creation (many of which took the incentives without creating a single job), allowed businesses to deny sick pay to their workers, and kept wages so low that many can't scrape by, among other policies that hurt the state and it's workers. Now as his reelection is near, he's offering more goodies like tax giveaways for tourism to help attractions like Disney, Sea World and others who are already doing quite well as it is with big profits, and virtually no taxes, and Scott would have you believe he's doing this for \"Florida's families.\" He calls the giveaways \"It's Your Money,\" which he's handing over to people who hardly need it.\nWhile the governor and so many of Florida's legislators are already in the pocket of organizations like ALEC, we're seeing these corporations gaining more and more power at our expense. Look at what happened in West Virginia, where a company called Freedom Industries leaked chemicals into the drinking water which is still sending people to the hospital. The company had only existed in its current form for a short time, and its President is a resident of Florida and is tied to five Florida companies in the mining and chemical industries. The company filed for bankruptcy as officials scrambled to try and figure out what exactly was in those chemicals. The mess Freedom Industries has created is only getting worse for the victims. At this point, West Virginia's governor is all but throwing up his hands and telling his constituents \"it's their decision\" whether or not to drink the water. At least in West Virginia, thanks to Obamacare, many are able to see a doctor, while here in Florida, Scott and Republican legislators are blocking that too.\nThis lack of accountability is being seen more and more as corporations and lawmakers gain more power over the people. We have ALEC to thank for much of that, but they're far from the only ones. There's the web of corporate interests tied to the Koch brothers, and the DeVos family of Michigan and of Amway fame. (Read the latest on DeVos here over at Mother Jones.)\nFor those under the illusion that the tentacles of these corporations don't reach them, consider this list from BuzzFeed. If you have a smartphone that you rely on every day, as most of us do, you may be surprised to know that many apps you use every day are helping fund ALEC and laws like Stand Your Ground: Google, Google Maps, Google Plus, Facebook, Yelp, Yahoo, Skype, eBay, The Weather Channel, Flickr, Instagram and YouTube.\nThese are only a few examples of how widespread this \"hostile corporate takeover\" is, and it will continue to grow if we don't start fighting back.\nSo take the time to Stand Up TO ALEC here. If you're in Florida, here's a list of the known members of ALEC in the Florida legislature. You can search for them in other states here. There are also resources and information at ALEC Exposed, the Center For Media and Democracy's PR Watch, and Progress Florida.\nPosted by Martha Jackovics on 01/21/2014 at 03:55 PM in ALEC, Florida Legislature, KOCH, Koch Bros., Progress Florida, Rick Scott | Permalink",

        "raw_content": "Health Care Companies Agree to Pay $20.9 Million to Resolve Kickback Allegations\nOn Friday, April 29, 2016, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Hollister Inc. and Byram Healthcare Centers Inc. have agreed to pay $20.9 million to resolve kickback allegations. The government alleged that Hollister, a manufacturer of health care products, paid kickbacks to Byram, a supplier of medical products, in order to encourage Byram to create promotional campaigns designed to refer patients to Hollister\u2019s products. Kickback programs such as this scheme are prohibited under the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS) and the False Claims Act (FCA).\nAccording to Medicare regulations, the AKS and FCA are statutes \u201cdesigned to prevent or ameliorate fraud, waste and abuse.\u201d 42 C.F.R. \u00a7 422.504(h).\n\u201cHealth care product manufacturers that financially reward suppliers in exchange for the referral of business can improperly direct patients to certain products over others,\u201d said Phillip M. Coyne, Special Agent with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General. Kickbacks create unfair competition in the medical market as honest manufactures are having to compete with manufactures who are paying for their business.\nThis type of competition clouds the judgment of medical care providers and corrupts the health care industry. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) Resource Guide, the AKS \u201cprohibits the knowing and willful offer, payment, solicitation, or receipt of any remuneration, in cash or in kind, to induce or in return for referring an individual for the furnishing or arranging of any item or service for which payment may be made under a Federal health care program.\u201d\nIn regard to the FCA, AKS violations are per se violations of the FCA. 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1320(a)-7b(g). Moreover, \u201ca person need not have actual knowledge of [the AKS] or specific intent to commit a violation.\u201d 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1320(a)-7b(h). Therefore, a provider can unknowingly violate the AKS and, consequently, the FCA.\nIn the case against Hollister and Byram, the government alleged that Hollister was inducing Byram to recommend Hollister products. These products, when sold to patients, were typically covered under Medicare or another state or federal health care program.\nU.S. Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz stated, \u201cThese unlawful case incentives also threaten the integrity of the health care system and siphon taxpayer dollars from our nation\u2019s health care programs.\u201d\nThis case was filed under the qui tam provision of the FCA, which allows private individuals to file lawsuits on behalf of the government when those individuals have knowledge of a person or company defrauding the government. The FCA provides monetary incentives for these private individuals, known as whistleblowers, which include 15 to 30 percent of the damages recovered. The whistleblowers who brought the case against Hollister and Byram could receive up to $9 million as a reward for their part in the case.\nAre you aware of fraud being committed against the federal government, or a state government? If so, the False Claims Act can protect and reward you for doing the right thing by reporting the fraud. If you have any questions about whether you qualify as a whistleblower, please contact an attorney at Beasley Allen for a free and confidential evaluation of your claim. There is a contact form on this website, or you may email one of the lawyers on our whistleblower litigation team: Archie Grubb, Larry Golston, Lance Gould or Andrew Brashier.\n42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1320(a)-7b\n42 C.F.R. \u00a7 422.504(h)",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Issues / Oktoberfest on Acton Green\nOktoberfest on Acton Green\nGerman Bierfest 2017 cancelled\nThe Society had been monitoring the plans for the Bierfest to be held on Acton Green from 24 \u2013 28 August, to be run by the same organisation as last year (London Oktoberfest), re-branded as the German Bierfest Ealing. In July we provided the only local representation, apart form Ward Councillor Andrew Steed, at the meeting with Ealing Council and the event organiser, organised to discuss the details of the proposed event.\nThe Council gave conditional permission for the Bierfest to take place, provided the organisers meet all the requirements stipulated by the Council including monitoring of noise levels, numbers and arrangements for entering and exiting the event.\nWe asked the Council for details of the conditions imposed for granting permission for the event but before a response arrived, the organiser announced that this year\u2019s event was cancelled. The Council has informed us that the organiser intends to return in 2018 so we will continue to monitor developments.\nFollowing the first Oktoberfest in August 2016, the Society organised a membership survey. Thanks to a string response, this helped us clarify local views before going back to Ealing Council with feedback about the Oktoberfest and similar events on Acton Green in the future.\nOverall, it was felt that the event was well managed in terms of security and noise levels although low attendance probably contributed to this and there was concern that had more people attended local disruption would have been much more serious. Residents who live close to the Green were understandably the most critical and there were a number of reports of noise levels being so intrusive that they prevented people from opening windows in the warm weather or using their gardens. Other residents expressed sympathy for the adverse effect on householders living nearby and questioned the suitability of holding any additional events in the heart of a residential community.\nWhile a number of people welcomed the idea of public events being held occasionally to encourage people to meet and to be more \u201cinclusive,\u201d there was a strong preference for these events to be community-based rather than purely commercial. However, comments were also made about the disturbance caused by existing events during the year and it was generally felt that there should be a limit on any additional events of no more than one or two per year and they should not exceed three days\u2019 duration.\nWhen asked if it was appropriate to hold another beer festival or similar event in future, only a third of respondents agreed. Residents expressed a desire to be consulted in advance of any proposed event and for each one to be considered on a case-by-case basis.\nThe Society contacted Ealing Council to convey the results of the survey and asked to be kept up to date on any future plans for events so that residents\u2019 views could be considered.",

        "raw_content": "Everything 5 Seconds Of Summer Did Between 'Sounds Good Feels Good' and 'Want You Back'\n2/23/2018 by Nina Braca\nThe day that every 5 Seconds Of Summer fan had been patiently waiting for since 2016 finally arrived on Thursday, Feb 23. The 5SOS boys released their highly anticipated new single \u201cWant You Back\u201d (unfortunately not a HAIM cover) and swiftly announced an intimate-venues tour. But what have the Australian boys been up to until now?\nThe group dropped their sophomore album Sounds Good Feels Good in October 2015, then went on to do a ton of other projects besides a new album. Of course, fans are excited to see what is coming next for the band, but if you want to educate yourself on the band's whereabouts since SGFG, check out what Luke Hemmings, Ashton Irwin, Michael Clifford and Calum Hood have all been doing over the past three years.\nNovember 2015: Release How Did We End Up Here Documentary\nAfter the release of their second studio album, the group released a concert documentary about their rise to fame and their tour. The movie features behind the scenes looks at live on the road, their personal relationships, and included live versions of some of their hit songs.\nFebruary 2016: Embark On Sounds Live Feels Live World Tour\nIn order to promote their second studio album, the group headlined their Sounds Live Feels Live World Tour, making stops in 101 different places, including Asia, The U.K. and the U.S. -- including a headlining show at Madison Square Garden.\nJuly 2016: Release Ghostbusters Single, \"Girls Talk Boys\"\nThe boys released a groovy single for the all-female Ghostbusters reboot in 2016. \u201cGirls Talk Boys\u201d featured yearning lyrics and the boys singing in falsetto set to a ghost-themed music video.\nDecember 2016: Release Sounds Good Feels Good B-Sides\nThe band released previously unheard material as a part of their b-sides edition of Sounds Good Feels Good. The release featured nine unreleased songs, including an acoustic version of their Hot 100 hit \u201cShe Looks So Perfect.\u201d\nJanuary 2017: Two of the Guys Become Dog Dads\nA post shared by Calum Hood (@calumhood) on Jun 3, 2017 at 12:35am PDT\nWhile taking a break from music, a couple of the 5SOS lads decided to become dog parents. In 2017, both Hemmings and Hood got dogs that they heavily documented on their Instagram accounts for months and months after.\nJanuary 2017: Feature On One Ok Rock Album, Fueling New Album rumors\n5SOS was featured on the track \u201cTake What You Want\u201d from Japan-based rock band One OK Rock. The song featured emotionally charged lyrics over an impactful rock song, along with some epic screaming.\nAugust 2017: Continue the Sounds Good Feels Live Tour Overseas\nThough the band promised an album in 2017, they still had no new material by summer. But, they continued to play shows throughout the year, making stops in Japan and Australia, which they documented in a series of vlogs.\nDecember 2017/Early 2018: Hint That New Stuff Is On the Horizon\nIn December 2017, guitarist Michael Clifford spoke to Billboard about their new sound and upcoming album. \u201cI think the reason it's taken so long is because we haven't just wanted to get it to a place where we're, like, happy\u2026 We want it to be perfect. I think when all the new stuff comes out, it's like a departure of our old sound but it still keeps elements of all of the things we liked about it. It was just time for us to change.\"\n5sos.com\nA post shared by 5 Seconds of Summer (@5sos) on Feb 16, 2018 at 10:13am PST\nbeen listening to our new album a lot lately, thinkin' about which songs you guys are gonna love the most\n\u2014 crypto boi (@Michael5SOS) November 14, 2017\nFebruary 2018: Release \"Want You Back\"\nAfter teasing new material for almost a year, the boys changed their Twitter header to the words \"Want You Back,\" which led to speculation from fans that a new single would be on the way. They later released \u201cWant You Back\u201d own Feb. 23. The poppy rock track was followed by a tour announcement.

        "raw_content": "Browse > Home / Species / K-O / Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus)\nMost commonly found in the American tropics and subtropics, the Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) is a fairly large bird that generally nests around well-watered areas or lakes and rivers. Besides being found on the mainland of North America as far up as Rio Grand and the Californian coast through to Mexico, Central America and the southern parts of South America, it can also be found on smaller landmasses such as the Bahamas, Cuba and Trinidad. Most of these birds are permanent residents, though some do wander north in the warmer months. Because the bird is so widespread, some ornithologists prefer to treat those found north as one species and those found in the south as another species. However, they can also be grouped into the subspecies Phalacrocorax brasilianus mexicanus (the northern birds) and Phalacrocorax brasilianus brasilianus (the southern birds) and the two are therefore often grouped together as one species of cormorant. The Neotropic Cormorant was formerly known as the Olivaceous Cormorant.\nNeotropic Cormorants usually have a body length of 64 cm with a wingspan of 100 cm. They can weigh between 1 and 1.5 kg and those found in the south are usually bigger than those found in the north. Neotropic Cormorants are somewhat slender compared to other cormorants and they have a long tail, hooked bill and long, thin neck, which it frequently holds in an S-shape. The Gular region is pointed and dull yellow in colour and there is a thin pale border around this area. The adult bird has dark plumage covering its entire body, though the throat becomes whiter during breeding season with white tufts appearing on the sides of the head. Immature Neotropic Cormorants have dull brown upperparts and pale underparts.\nThe Neotropic Cormorant is somewhat different from other cormorants in that it often perches on wires. When it does perch, it is usually with wings spread wide open to dry. These birds feed mainly on small fish and also eat tadpoles, frogs and aquatic insects. They obtain their food by diving underwater and using their feet as a means of propulsion. The Neotropic Cormorant may also forage in groups, beating their wings in the water to drive the fish into the shallows. When it comes to mating, the birds are monogamous and they breed in colonies. They usually build their nest out of sticks in a depression. The centre is usually lined with twigs and grass and cater to as many as five eggs. Both parents sit on the eggs for a period of 25-30 days and then both work together to feed the young until the chicks reach independence at 12 weeks of age. Neotropic Cormorants raise only one brood a year.",

        "raw_content": "Home > News and events > News > Chilesaurus\nPalaeontologists are referring to Chilesaurus diegosuarezi as a \u2018platypus\u2019 dinosaur because of its bizarre combination of characters that resemble different dinosaur groups. For example, Chilesaurus boasted a proportionally small skull, hands with two fingers like Tyrannosaurus rexand feet more akin to primitive long-neck dinosaurs.\nChilesaurus diegosuarezi is nested within the theropod group of dinosaurs, the dinosaurian group that gathers the famous meat eaters Velociraptor, Carnotaurusand Tyrannosaurus, and from which birds today evolved. The presence of herbivorous theropods was up until now only known in close relatives of birds, but Chilesaurus shows that a meat-free diet was acquired much earlier than thought.\nChilesaurus diegosuarezi is named after the country where it was collected, as well as honouring Diego Su\u00e1rez, the seven year old boy who discovered the bones. He discovered the fossil remains of this creature at the Toqui Formation in Ays\u00e9n, south of Chilean Patagonia, in rocks deposited at the end of the Jurassic Period, approximately 145 million years ago.\nDiego was in the region with his parents, Chilean geologists Manuel Suarez and Rita de la Cruz, who were studying rocks in the Chilean Patagonia, with the aim to better understand the formation of the Andes mountain range. Diego stumbled across the fossils while him and his sister, Macarena, were looking for decorative stones.\nDue to Chilesaurus\u2019 unusual combination of characters, it was initially thought that Diego had uncovered several species. However, since Diego\u2019s find, more than a dozen Chilesaurus specimens have been excavated, including four complete skeletons \u2013 a first for the Jurassic Period in Chile \u2013 and they demonstrate that this dinosaur certainly combined a variety of unique anatomical traits.\nMost of the specimens are the size of a turkey, but some isolated bones reveal that the maximum size of Chilesaurus was around three metres long. Chilean and Argentinian palaeontologists from institutions including the University of Birmingham, along with Diego\u2019s parents, have been studying these skeletons, with the findings published in full in Nature today (Monday 27 April).\nOther features present in very different groups of dinosaurs Chilesaurusadopted were robust forelimbs similar to Jurassic theropods such as Allosaurus, although its hands were provided with two blunt fingers, unlike the sharp claws of fellow theropod Velociraptor. Chilesaurus\u2019 pelvic girdle resembles that of the ornithischian dinosaurs, whereas it is actually classified in the other basic dinosaur division \u2013 Saurischia.\nThe different parts of the body of Chilesaurus were adapted to a particular diet and way of life, which was similar to other groups of dinosaurs. As a result of these similar habits, different regions of the body of Chilesaurus evolved resembling those present in other, unrelated groups of dinosaurs, which is a phenomenon called evolutionary convergence.\nChilesaurus represents one of the most extreme cases of mosaic convergent evolution recorded in the history of life. For example, the teeth of Chilesaurus are very similar to those of primitive long-neck dinosaurs because they were selected over millions of years as a result of a similar diet between these two lineages of dinosaurs.\nMart\u00edn Ezcurra, Researcher, School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham said:\n\u2018Chilesaurus can be considered a \u2018platypus\u2019 dinosaur because different parts of its body resemble those of other dinosaur groups due to mosaic convergent evolution. In this process, a region or regions of an organism resemble others of unrelated species because of a similar mode of life and evolutionary pressures. Chilesaurusprovides a good example of how evolution works in deep time and it is one of the most interesting cases of convergent evolution documented in the history of life.\n\u2018Chilesaurus shows how much data is still completely unknown about the early diversification of major dinosaur groups. This study will force palaeontologists to take more care in the future in the identification of fragmentary or isolated dinosaur bones. It comes as false relationship evidence may arise because of cases of convergent evolution, such as that present in Chilesaurus.\u2019\nDr. Fernando Novas, Bernardino Rivadavia Natural Sciences Museum, Buenos Aires, Argentina, led the research onChilesaurus and said:\n\u2018Chilesaurus is the first complete dinosaur from the Jurassic Period found in Chile and represents one of the most complete and anatomically correct documented theropod dinosaurs from the southern hemisphere. Although plant-eating theropods have been recorded in North America and Asia, this is the first time a theropod with this characteristic has been found in a southern landmass.\nChilesauruswas an odd plant-eating dinosaur only to be found in Chile. However, the recurrent discovery in beds of the Toqui Formation of its bones and skeletons clearly demonstrates that Chilesauruswas, by far, the most abundant dinosaur in southwest Patagonia 145 million years ago.\u2019\nImage credit: Gabriel L\u00edo\nFor interview requests, more information and images, please contact Ben Goodwin, International Media Relations Manager, University of Birmingham on +44 (0) 121 414 8254\nOriginal research: Fernando E.

This is a tool that lets users track each other\u2019s actions (votes, comments, submissions, etc.) as they happen on the site. Digg users will recognize the similarities between this and Digg Spy.\nIt was implemented with the high level of design and functionality that we have come to expect from Newsvine. And they raised the bar while they were at it by providing a live chat built into the page. Newsvine Live also has the granularity of being able to see when a person votes on a comment.\nGamers Foiled\nDigg made big waves this week when they announced they were removing the top diggers list in an effort to stave off accusations of top diggers manipulating and gaming the site. However, within hours, Cristopher Finke (who actually works for Netscape) had recreated it using publicly available information.\nReactions to the top diggers list being removed varied from delight to displeasure. Many were disappointed that diggers would no longer have a recognition system. Still many others were understanding and appreciated that Digg was looking out for its top users as well as the whole site in doing this. So far one high ranking digger has noted that the solicitations he usually received on a daily basis from content producers have sharply declined since this move.\nPersonally, I never like to see features taken away from users. However, I understand that there are times when the best interest of the product calls for such a thing. And I think this is one of those rare cases. I also believe that Digg is capable of connecting users and giving them recognition in better ways.\nNetscape did some feature-removing of their own this past week. In particular they removed their users\u2019 ability to broadcast site-mail to all of their friends (albeit for a trial period of 2 weeks). It may sound like a small change, but this feature was quite regularly used by users to easily promote their submissions to all of their friends.\nAs a result it left some of the top users of the site displeased with the change. Still many other users were sick of the regular flow of site-mail soliciting votes and how it was affecting the front page of the site, and therefore welcomed the move by Netscape.\nAt the same time, Netscape also added a \u201cShare This Story\u201d feature that makes it easy for users to send stories to each other by email or private message. This is similar to the \u201cEmail This\u201d feature on Digg, but with the added ability of reaching any user on the site via site-mail.\nIt makes sense to internalize the ability for users to notify other users of their stories. We all know that if it wasn\u2019t happening within the site, it would be happening by email and IM (as it does on Digg) so why not get the extra page views and serve some more ads?\nThe connections between users of social news sites are the glue that holds them together. The more connected users feel to each other, the more willing they are to come back. When adding features that connect users, it seems like these sites can do no wrong. It\u2019s in the removal of features that they have to take special care not to destroy connections that have been created.\n[Feature image source]\nI\u2019m very glad Netscape did away with the mass mail mutual friend feature. I was receiving so much spam that I started removing users who were sending me requests to vote for their stories.",

It\u2019s the lead single for the 13 Reasons Why Season 2 soundtrack.\n\u201cWith this song, it\u2019s a very special record,\u201d Selena said on Beats 1. \u201cI want it to be a beautiful message in a really complicated way but really fun.

        "raw_content": "A large, affordable family home on the Upper East Side\u2014with a catch (natch)\n\u200bLooking for a family home? How does a large three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment on East 63rd Street for $995,000 sound? Too good to be true? Well it is, sort of (the monthlies are astronomical, but more on that later), and yet it\u2019s not\u2014which is exactly what caught our eye about this listing.\nFirst the good news: The fifth-floor apartment\u2019s big\u20141,725 square feet since two one-bedroom units were combined to create the space\u2014and has three good-sized bedrooms, including a master suite with its own private entrance, and two full baths, each with its own window. It\u2019s also got an open living-dining room with lots of windows that\u2014thanks to fairly unobstructed south and west views\u2014make the apartment look extra bright.\nWho wouldn't want to a cook in a kitchen filled with high-end appliances and cabinetry?\nThe kitchen is all glossy white cabinets and granite countertops, with a laundry list of swish appliances: Thermador double ovens, Sub-Zero fridge, six-burner Wolf range, Sinkmaster garbage disposal. Built-in storage, from floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and clever cabinets to custom walk-in closets and an additional room that could be renovated to a third bath, is another bonus. And lastly, it's zoned for P.S. 267 (aka East Side Elementary), a school founded in 2010 and currently serving grades pre-K through three that InsideSchools praises for its quality curriculum.\nThe alcove dining room gets light from two sides\nNow for the bad news: the building at 301 East 63rd Street is paying down a mortgage of tens of millions of dollars, so while the apartment\u2019s purchase price is low (about a quarter the cost of similar places in the area, which sold for an average of about $4.25 million, according to StreetEasy) the monthly bill shakes out to a whopping $6,808 a month! Why so high? No. 301 was formerly a landlease, meaning that the co-op didn't own the land on which the building sits. But a few years ago, the co-op was forced to buy the land, and took out a mortgage to do so, leading to an indefinite, sky-high monthly assessment for shareholders. Eleven days ago, the owners slashed the asking price by $255,000.\nOnce a landlease, the building now owns the property on which it stands\nThat said, if you wanted to buy this three-bedroom, you'd face few of the restrictions that typically apply to co-ops: Subletting, pied-a-terres, co-purchasing and guarantors are all allowed, according to other listings in the building. Built in 1959, the pet-friendly property also has a concierge, doorman, live-in super, bike room and garage parking available.\nTwo one-bedrooms were combined to create the oversized floorplan\nLandlease apartments are cheaper, but are they worth it?\nWhy I bought in a landlease building despite the horror stories\nThree tips for finding a family-friendly apartment\nNYC's 10 best neighborhoods for young families\nbuying co-ops family landlease Upper East Side\nDeclutter your life with high-tech help\nBrushing up on the best shades of white paint, space saving ideas for NYC apartment bedrooms, & more top stories\nApply for a chance to rent an apartment in the Financial District for as little as $613 a month\nHow to sell your New York City apartment in a buyer's market",

        "raw_content": "Norwegian meteorologist\nVilhelm Bjerknes, (born March 14, 1862, Christiania, Norway\u2014died April 9, 1951, Oslo), Norwegian meteorologist and physicist, one of the founders of the modern science of weather forecasting.\nAs a youth Bjerknes assisted his father, a professor of mathematics at Christiania, with research in hydrodynamics. In 1890 he went to Germany and became an assistant to and scientific collaborator with the German physicist Heinrich Hertz. Bjerknes made a comprehensive study of electrical resonance that was decisive in the development of radio.\nAfter two years as lecturer at the H\u00f6gskola (School of Engineering), Stockholm, Bjerknes in 1895 became professor of applied mechanics and mathematical physics at the University of Stockholm. Two years later he discovered the circulation theorems that led him to a synthesis of hydrodynamics and thermodynamics applicable to large-scale motions in the atmosphere and the ocean. This work ultimately resulted in the theory of air masses, which is essential to modern weather forecasting. In 1904 he presented a farsighted program for physical weather prediction. The Carnegie Foundation awarded him an annual stipend (1905\u201341) to support his research.\nIn 1907 Bjerknes returned to Norway and accepted a professorship at the university in Kristiania (so spelled from 1877 to 1925). Five years later he became professor of geophysics at the University of Leipzig, where he organized and directed the Leipzig Geophysical Institute. In 1917 he accepted a position with a museum in Bergen, Norway, and there founded the Bergen Geophysical Institute. His most productive years were spent at Bergen; there he wrote On the Dynamics of the Circular Vortex with Applications to the Atmosphere and to Atmospheric Vortex and Wave Motion (1921). Now a classic, this work clearly details the most important aspects of his research. In 1926 he obtained a position with the university in Oslo, where he continued his studies until his retirement in 1932.\nclimate: Extratropical cyclones\n\u2026by Norwegian meteorologist and physicist Vilhelm Bjerknes, formulated a model for a cyclone that forms as a disturbance along a zone of strong temperature contrast known as a front, which in turn constitutes a boundary between two contrasting air masses. In this model the masses of polar and mid-latitude air\u2026\nVilhelm Bjerknes and his associates at Bergen succeeded in devising equations relating the measurable components of weather, but their complexity precluded the rapid solutions needed for forecasting. Out of their efforts, however, came the polar front theory for the origin of cyclones and the now-familiar\u2026\nEarth sciences: Ocean circulation, currents, and waves\nEarly in the 20th century Vilhelm Bjerknes, a Norwegian meteorologist, and V.

        "raw_content": "Read Mark 10:35-45; John 13:1-15\nEveryone has the power for greatness, not for fame but greatness,\nbecause greatness is determined by service.\nThroughout history, great people are often measured by their accomplishments, power, and influence. The more you have, the more you have done, the greater you are. In Mark 10 Jesus offers a new paradigm for us to evaluate greatness. It\u2019s not those who are on top who are the greatest, but those who are down below.\nJesus not only spoke about greatness in a new light, but He also demonstrated it. The night before Jesus was to be crucified, being the most powerful man in the room, knowing full well who He was, He assumed the most humble position imaginable and washed the disciples\u2019 feet. Peter, also fully understanding who Jesus was, resisted Jesus\u2019 act of service. But Jesus wouldn\u2019t allow it. He demonstrated that greatness in the kingdom is not defined by the world's terms.\nI\u2019m repeatedly tempted to pursue greatness as the world defines it. When I do, I take on the mentality of a ruler rather than a servant. I start to believe that the world revolves around me and the people in my life exist to serve me. I grow impatient, demanding, and judgmental. I tend to think about what\u2019s best for me rather than what\u2019s best for others.\nIn offering a new way to greatness, Jesus teaches that abundant living is counter-intuitive to the way of the world. Joy and satisfaction found in accomplishment and recognition are temporary and leave you wanting more. When we embrace the posture of being a servant first, we discover that contributing to the joy of others is the key to finding our own. As you go about your day, seek to be great by putting other people first.\n1. Who do you know who could be defined as being great in kingdom terms? What do you appreciate about them?\n2. When was there a time someone put you first? How did it make you feel?\n3. Where in your life today can you practice being great by serving others?\nNewer PostBe Compassionate\nOlder PostBe Patient",

The building, now a museum, is officially known as the Cathedral of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos on the Moat or Pokrovsky Cathedral. It was built from 1555-1561 on orders from Ivan the Terrible and commemorates the capture of Kazan and Astrakhan.\nThe original building, known as Trinity Church and later Trinity Cathedral, contained eight churches arranged around a ninth, central church of Intercession; a tenth church was erected in 1588 over the grave of venerated local saint Vasily (Basil). In the 16th and 17th centuries, the church, perceived (as with all churches in Byzantine Christianity) as the earthly symbol of the Heavenly City, was popularly known as the ''Jerusalem'' and served as an allegory of the Jerusalem Temple in the annual Palm Sunday parade attended by the Patriarch of Moscow and the tsar.\nAs part of the program of state atheism, the church was confiscated from the Russian Orthodox community as part of the Soviet Union's anti-theist campaigns and has operated as a division of the State Historical Museum since 1928. It was completely secularized in 1929 and remains a federal property of the Russian Federation. The church has been part of the Moscow Kremlin and Red Square UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1990. It is not actually within the Kremlin, but often served as a visual metonym for Russia in western media throughout the Cold War and to the modern day.

        "raw_content": "Sainsbury's boss Mike Coupe has been acquitted of embezzlement charges in Egypt\nMike Coupe.\nThe boss of one of Britain's biggest supermarkets, Sainsbury's, was acquitted on Thursday of embezzlement charges in Egypt brought against him as a representative of the supermarket.\nThe charges were related to claims by Amr el Nasharty, who owned an Egyptian grocer, called the Egyptian Distribution Group, in which Sainsbury's bought an 80% stake in, in 1999.\nIn April, el-Nasharty claimed that Mike Coupe and Sainsbury's tried to seize cheques linked to a collapsed Egyptian business Sainsbury's invested in 16 years ago. Coupe was automatically convicted of the crime, however, because he \"failed to attend the court hearings.\"\nSainsbury's appealed the conviction and today Coupe was acquitted of all charges.\nSainsbury's said in an emailed statement to Business Insider:\nWe are pleased that justice has prevailed today, with the court ruling in favour of Mike, and ultimately Sainsbury's.\nWe have always strongly refuted the legal case in Egypt brought against our Chief Executive Mike Coupe, which relates to a historic commercial dispute which has absolutely nothing to do with Mr Coupe.\nMike was not employed by Sainsbury's at the time of the original dispute in 2001 and has never met the complainant Mr el-Nasharty. el-Nasharty has brought several claims against the supermarket and its employees in the intervening years, all of which have consistently been rejected as spurious and without basis in fact.\nMr Coupe was not in court to hear the verdict, which was relayed by Sainsbury's legal representatives in Egypt.\nThe conviction stems from Sainsbury's attempt to enter the Egyptian market in 1999. It bought an 80% stake in Egyptian Distribution Group, also known as Edge.\nBut Sainsbury's and its acquisition faced fierce opposition from the Egyptian people and a boycott of its stores in Cairo and Giza. Less than two years after trying to enter the market, it made \u00a310 million ($15.3 million) of operating losses and withdrew from the country.\nMeanwhile, Sainsbury's apparently sold back its Edge shares to its founder Amr El Nasharty when it left the country in 2014. El Nasharty said he was forced to take a charge of \u00a3111 million ($170.3 million) to cover its losses.\nHe then claimed for compensation from Sainsbury's after saying he was unaware when he was sold back the shares that the business was insolvent and had substantial tax liabilities.\nIn July last year, Coupe took over from Justin King as CEO. Egyptian authorities alleged that he attempted to seize the cheques from the defunct company.\nNOW WATCH: We got our hands on 'Kinder Surprise Eggs' \u2014 the global candy favorite that's still illegal in the US\nMore: Sainsbury's Mike Coupe Courts Egypt\nMike Coupe Court Case",

        "raw_content": "Justin Bieber Gets A New Tattoo In Honor Of His Roast ... Kinda \u2014 VIDEO\nJustin Bieber just got another tattoo. OK, full disclosure, it's not real. It's just a clever marketing campaign for his upcoming Comedy Central show. The new promo for the Justin Bieber roast shows the singer getting freshly inked... with a large target on his back. Get it? Because he's doomed come roasting time? \"How does it look?\" Bieber asks. \"It's f***ing perfect,\" the tattoo artist replies.\nThe 18 second clip is funny in its own right because it's poking fun at Bieber's ever-growing collection of tattoos. (Remember when he said he was done with ink for good, and then two weeks later got a tattoo that said \"patience\"? You can't make that stuff up.) But like with his egg throwing-themed promo, the best part of the ads is that it's clear Bieber is in on the joke.\nIt's going to make laughing at him a lot more fun if I know I'm not just outright picking on him. I mean, he probably deserves some of it. But I have to say, it's a lot more fun to mock something when everyone is on the same page and you know you're not being cruel for the sake of being cruel. No, he asked for this and he's playing along, so we can relax and enjoy the Bieber jokes to come on March 30.\nFor now, check out the promo below. (And fingers crossed he doesn't actually get this tattoo, because at this point I wouldn't be surprised if he did.)",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a Buy Some Damn Art \u203a Michelle Fleck\nToday on Buy Some Damn Art we're launching a great show by San Francisco artist and educator Michelle Fleck!\nI\u2019ve lived in San Francisco for the past 7 years now, and originally grew up in Whittier, CA, which is a little suburb in Southeast LA County. I have family up in this area and fell in love with SF after many visits. I moved here for college and of course never left!\nHow did you get into painting junk, debris and other \"unsightly\" things?\nWhile completing my BA in college, I was encouraged by my professors to really hone in on a subject matter that was important to me. Living in an urban environment, I became interested in the relationship between man and the landscape and the marks we leave on it. I began to notice this constant change in the city- buildings being demolished and rebuilt, the cycle of tenants moving in and out of apartments, and junk tossed out on the street. I strive to make work that has a sense of relevancy in a culture driven by a need for change and newness. When creating bodies of work, I found that this theme just continued to hold my interest piece after piece.\nSidewalk, $225.\nDo you find beauty in these kinds of scenes in real life? Or do you add your own \"beauty\" so-to-speak when you paint them?\nI do find a lot of beauty in scenes that are overlooked by the average passerby. I see them almost like little still-lifes with shapes and color. I have fun with painting these things\u2014 abstracting some of the shapes, injecting brighter colors to distinguish the man-made objects and garbage and debris, in contrast with the more muted tones of dirt and sand. In bringing these overlooked scenes into a painting, it\u2019s my way of acknowledging that they exist and recognizing that we\u2019re a part of them.\nEmpty Lot, $300.\nI\u2019m inspired by the city, California landscape, colors, shapes, and being surrounded by so many galleries, museums, and other talented artists.\nYou work as a teacher too. Has it been a challenge to focus on your art practice at the same time?\nNot at all! I\u2019m so lucky to be able to balance my time between painting in the mornings and teaching in an afternoon program. I work at an art and play-based school with young children, so I get to tap into my own creativity when planning curriculum. It\u2019s a ton of fun. Also, we emphasize sustainability and talk a lot with the children about taking care of the earth, so in many ways that has shaped my work\u2014just thinking about our relationship with the landscape and where that is headed in terms of the next generation.\nFree Pile, $250.\nHas anyone ever compared your plastic bag paintings with the dancing plastic bag scene in the film American Beauty?\nI\u2019ve definitely heard that a few times! The bags are actually very typical take-out bags from restaurants in the city, and I\u2019ve seen them get stuck on fences and trees many times on a windy day.\nHave a Nice Day, $450.\nMy friends and family. Art supplies: Golden acrylics, artist\u2019s tape, a fresh wood panel and my trusty paintbrushes. Coffee, and of course, some California sunshine.\nTags: Artist Q/A, Michelle Fleck\nNathalie on May 10, 2012\nI love the moments of spacious simplicity and moments of dense detail. Excellent work Michelle!\nCallie Thompson on May 04, 2012",

        "raw_content": "You\u2019d be laughing too if you were living Bobby Bonilla\u2019s life.\n$1.6 million a year for doing nothing\nCHANCES are you've never heard of Bobby Bonilla and that's perfectly fine - but one thing you should know is he holds one of the greatest contracts any person could ever dream of.\nBonilla played Major League Baseball for 16 years, in which time he won a World Series and was named an All-Star on six occasions.\nIn a three-year span from 1992 to 1994 Bonilla was the highest paid player in the league, but it's since his career finished the riches have flooded in.\nAfter the 1999 season and still with one year remaining on his deal, the New York Mets released Bonilla. With $7.9 million still left on his contract Bonilla and his agent, Dennis Gilbert, arranged a deal with the Mets.\nGilbert was an insurance agent around the time the deal was constructed which helped him fleece the organisation for his client. The deal would see Bonilla defer payment for a decade and then have the Mets pay him $1.6 million per year, for 25 years.\nYes, you read that right - $1.6 million a year for 25 years.\nInstead of keeping him on their roster and paying him $7.9 million for one season, the deal will see Bonilla being paid annually until 2035 - at which time he would have earned $40 million.\nThe deal was agreed too and Bonilla began receiving payments in 2011 on July 1.\nRejoice #Mets fans, tomorrow is Bobby Bonilla Day! #LGM #makeyourmove\n\u2014 Robert Flores (@RoFlo) 30 June 2018\n$9,545,986: What the Mets have paid so far for Bobby Bonilla\u2019s 2000 season, including the $1,193,248.20 annual payment they give Bonilla today.\nThe last game Bonilla played for the Mets was October 19, 1999. pic.twitter.com/CNKCOhVWd2\n\u2014 Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) 1 July 2018\nDespite not having played professional baseball since his retirement in 2001, Bonilla has since 2011 earned $12.8 million from the Mets.\nBonilla, now aged 55, gets to sit back and wait until July 1 every single year for his bank account to receive a hefty boost.\nThe real kicker on top of this for Bonilla is the $1.6 million annual payment isn't the only deferred deal he's receiving.\nAccording to his agent Gilbert, he's currently also receiving payments from an earlier deal with the Mets.\nPart of his first deal with the organisation was to defer yearly payments of $675,000 per year from 2004 through to 2023.\nSo that means Bonilla between 2011 and 2023 is earning $2.2 million per year, just for being a former player. And for having an incredible agent.\nWith eight payments now officially down, the Mets only have 17 to go before they can stop being the butt of jokes.\nRonaldo makes a $157 million move\nMayweather tops sports rich list",

The agency designates the bank as \u201cSuperior\u201d, its highest rating, and features institutions with such a ranking on the BauerFinancial Recommended Report. C3bank will also be featured in the August issue of Jumbo Rate News published weekly by BauerFinancial. The issue features the top 50 banks in the nation as determined by quality loan growth. Each bank is required to be considered \u201cwell-capitalized\u201d, considered \u201csound\u201d, and have at least an \"Excellent\" star rating by the BauerFinancial. BauerFinancial star ratings classify each institution based upon a complex formula factoring in current and historical data. The first level of evaluation is the capital level of the institution followed by other relevant data including, but not limited, to: profitability, historical trends, loan delinquencies, repossessed assets, reserves, regulatory compliance, proposed regulations and asset quality. Negative trends are projected forward to compensate for the lag time in the data. BauerFinancial employs conservative measures when assigning these ratings and consequently our analysis may be lower than those supplied by other analysts or the institutions themselves. More than 30 years of experience has shown this to be a prudent course of action.\nC3bank Sponsors The Annual \u201cRock the Cure\u201d Concert To Benefit Type I Diabetes Research\nC3bank sponsored the annual \u201cRock the Cure\u201d concert in La Jolla, California.

        "title": "WHEN THE POLICE ARE THE CRIMINALS \u2014 California Criminal Defense Lawyer Blog \u2014 January 5, 2018",
        "raw_content": "WHEN THE POLICE ARE THE CRIMINALS\nLast month at a U.S. District Court in Maryland, a judge stepped down from his bench to shake the hands of two defendants and tell them he was sorry. The two defendants had, at different times, pleaded guilty to drug charges years ago in that same judge\u2019s court. The convictions had just been vacated by the judge. One of the men, Umar Burley, pleaded guilty to manslaughter and heroin possession. He had spent seven years of his 15-year sentence when he was released. The other man pleaded guilty to drug charges and had served four years when he was released. So why did the judge shake these men\u2019s\u2019 hands and apologize? Because they were both innocent.\nLast spring, Baltimore prosecutors charged at least eight officers, who were members of a special police task force, with gross misconduct, including planting drugs on innocent people. These officers were as crooked as it gets. Suspiciously, the Baltimore detective who was investigating this rouge police squad was fatally shot a day before he was scheduled to testify before a federal grand jury.\nThe two recently released men are expected to be only the first of many who will be released. The district judge stated this is not over yet. Baltimore prosecutors estimate that there are at least 2,000 cases that involve arrests by this crooked task force.\nThe case involving Umar Burley is particularly tragic. It is reported that one of the corrupt officers rammed Mr. Burley\u2019s car from behind and the came out of his unmarked car donned in all black and wearing a face mask. With his gun drawn, he approached Mr. Burley, who was still sitting in his car, with his gun drawn. Mr. Burley, believing he was being robbed sped away causing him to hit another vehicle, which ended in the death of a man in the other vehicle. According to the prosecutor, upon contacting Mr. Burley in his car following the accident, another one of the officers planted heroin in Mr. Burley\u2019s car. After seven years in prison for a crime he did not commit and living with the emotional pain of causing someone\u2019s death, Mr. Burley said he appreciated the judge\u2019s apology but his life will never be the same. That much is clear and I, for one, think there is a case to be made against the officer for manslaughter.\nYou might wonder why these two innocent men pleaded guilty to crimes they know they did not commit. I can\u2019t speak for them but I can tell you that the prosecution will do everything in their power to intimidate a defendant into making a plea. Indeed, approximately 95% of all California state criminal cases end with a plea bargain rather than a trial. In the Baltimore case, these defendants were up against police evidence\u2014no matter how much they insisted the drugs were planted, a jury is going to believe a cop\u2019s testimony almost every time. This is truly egregious and a tragedy, not only for the defendants, but for our justice system.\nMost police officers are honest and trying to do the best they can, but some of them are criminals, plain and simple. And even if plea bargains are often an efficient use of judicial time and can benefit the defendant, sometimes a trial is a better option. While the Baltimore cases are hopefully outliers and these defendants probably would have been convicted by a jury anyway and received even greater sentences because the cops would have given false testimony, we still must pay heed to what has happened in Baltimore. There are over 2,000 individuals who have been convicted in Baltimore after being arrested by this rogue task force; many of them may be innocent. In our rush to judgment and our tendency to assume a defendant is guilty or that a police officer is always telling the truth, we do a disservice to our system of justice.\nCriminal defense attorney William Weinberg has been serving the Orange County community for almost 25 years.

Its changes to the text reflect modern biblical scholarship and the shifts in the use of English in the 30 years since the NIV was first published. For examples, words that have attracted new meanings, such as 'aliens', 'saints' and 'stoned' have been changed to avoid ambiguity, and the generic use of masculine words and pronouns has been discontinued in the interests of clarity. Section headings have been introduced, to make the text easier to read, and there are some changes to name spellings and to layout. The Popular Edition includes blank pages for notes. Cambridge has a reputation for its high quality leather-bound Bibles and is continuing that tradition by introducing leather Bibles using Today's New International Version.

        "raw_content": "Our Process When Sending Offers To Agents | Capital Rise Investments\nRaul: Hello everyone. Raul here. Capital Rise RB Financial. Today I\u2019m talking to my agents. My real estate agents with some good deals out there. Number one, we love you. One of our missions this year is to make agents $1,000.00 a day, $365,000.00 this year. I want to make agents or an agent or whatever, because we always give commissions to our agents. A lot of the time we\u2019ll give our commission to our agents if it\u2019s a good deal.\nLet me just run you through our process real quick and I want to be really honest and up front with you. Some of you guys might like it, some of you guys might not, whatever. Some of you guys might some of you guys might not, however, at the end of the day, we do close a lot of deals one way or the other. We can definitely help you or not help you, but we can close some deals with you.\nAlright, lets get popping. Step one. We\u2019re going to take you this as a step process. One of our agents sends you an offer. One of our agents here in the office they\u2019ll be like, \u201cThis is a good one.\u201d And then they\u2019ll send you an offer. Usually from the computer, they\u2019ll usually send you an email, call, text, whatever\u2019s easiest for you. We\u2019ll send you an offer. If we send you an offer \u2026 we\u2019re not one of those people that have a machine or something that just like automatically sends a bunch of offers. That\u2019s not how we do things. We actually do it like we send the offer and if we have an idea that we\u2019re going to close on that thing. I\u2019ve spoke in previous videos that I really focus on getting a lot more money behind us to actually close on these things because I don\u2019t want to waste your time anymore. I\u2019m tired of people wasting our time. I\u2019m tired of wasting agents time like, \u201cHey, let\u2019s get it under contract and then not close.\u201d It\u2019s not fun for you it\u2019s not fun for me not fun for the agent. It just sucks, okay.\nWe focus a lot of attention on getting a lot of money. We got that.\nTwo, you review and accept. Right. This is you speaking to your seller or you speaking to the seller. I didn\u2019t want to discriminate boys and girls or men and female, so I put little bit of both. I understand you have a seller. I understand you represent a bank. I understand you have Mrs. Jones a homeowner, I understand that. We\u2019re to kind of help you, if there\u2019s anything that we can give to you to make the offer look better, make the process easier let us know. We\u2019ll usually send proof of funds and all that in our package, and we even have a package showing all the deals we\u2019ve closed last year and all the deals we\u2019ve closed this year, which is over a hundred. So I think you guys would like that and it\u2019s nice to show your seller, like, \u201cHey listen this offer might be a little bit lower because it\u2019s cash, but look at the records.\u201d They\u2019ve closed a bunch of deals, it\u2019ll make you look good that you\u2019re bringing them a good buyer and it\u2019ll make us look good, that offer might look pretty good.\nWe\u2019re on the same team here and I want you guys to earn your commission I really do, I really do. Without you guys, I don\u2019t have much of a business so this is really important for me. It\u2019s near and dear to my heart, okay? [inaudible 00:03:11] next, we put deposit. The answer is yes, we put deposits. That\u2019s the reason I think we\u2019ve been in business for a long time doing a lot of deals. We actually put our money where our mouth is believe it or not. So that\u2019s pretty cool okay? We actually put our money where our mouth is and we\u2019ll give you an escrow letter, we\u2019ll send it to the title company whatever you need. Obviously as long as it goes through our process and we know it\u2019s \u2026 if we made you an offer, there\u2019s a really high chance we\u2019re going to close unless there\u2019s like any foundation issues or any violations or something crazy. So you just, we\u2019ll put deposits like the contract says. We put deposits and then last step, so this is how we put in the deposit.\nLast step is we close or resale. I put we close because even if you resell we\u2019re going to close. Even if we do resell, I never put that we are like out of liability. There\u2019s a thing on the contract that says you can assign, but be released from liability, we don\u2019t do that. We\u2019re always in liability because I want to close a deal and I want to make sure I don\u2019t lose my word with you guys. So then there\u2019s [inaudible 00:04:21] deal.

        "raw_content": "Toyota\u2019s new car launches and concepts at Auto Expo 2010\n14 cars in all, dude, for Auto Expo 2010 from Toyota.\nWe already know that Toyota plans a grand pavilion this Auto Expo 2010 at New Delhi. The company announced that they would be bringing a total of 14 production and concept vehicles at the Auto Expo. Whatever Toyota does in India will be of much interest \u2013 after all, as we have said several times before, Toyota Kirloskar has never made a mis-step in India with their cars. For the full list of new car launches, click Auto Expo 2010: New car launches\nToyota EFC entry family car, their first small car launch at Auto Expo 2010\nToyota's small cars iQ and Yaris: Now guess what the EFC would look like!\nUpdate: The EFC is now called the Toyota Etios.\nThis is the most crucial launch for the company. Considering that this Auto Expo is going to be one dominated by small cars, and that the market for the entry level car segment is exploding in India, all eyes would be on the small car launch. What we see will be a prototype \u2013 the final product is at least an year away, we think. Would Toyota show something that is close to the production version, and give some hints as to the price of the small car? What we are all pretty sure is that it is not the Toyota Yaris. The engine is likely to be 1200 cc.\nThe EFC small car will battle for attention with other small cars such as the one from Hyundai, the Chevrolet Beat and the Ford Figo. This is Toyota\u2019s most ambitious venture in India, and the company is targeting 70,000 units production in the first year. Hatchback and sedan versions of the EFC small car will be displayed by Toyota. The car is also planned for export to the BRIC countries, but India will be the main market. According to what we hear, this car would be priced at around Rs 5 lakh, and positioned against the Suzuki Swift and the Hyundai i20. If you want to read a more detailed story, click upcoming Toyota EFC small car for Auto Expo 2010.\nNew Toyota MPV launch at 2010 Auto Expo\nToyota Avanza - another photo\nWe initially thought this would be the Toyota Avanza, to be positioned below the Innova. Now we are not so sure \u2013 the new MPV might even be an all-new vehicle. The price would definitely below than that of the Innova, targeting the Mahindra Xylo market. There is precious little information available about the new launch though. Guess we will have to wait for the Auto Expo to begin. Other interesting MPV launches planned for the 2010 Expo are the Nissan NV200 and the new Suzuki Eco. Whether all these would be positioned directly against each other or target different markets is not clear. The Suzuki Eco will possibly be a bit cheaper, as it is a replacement for the Maruti Versa \u2013 while our guess is that the Nissan NV200, considering that it is an award winning van, might be priced higher. Then there is the new MPV the Tata Indicruz / Xover, which will also be launched at the Auto Expo. 2010 is going to be interesting for the large people-carrier segment for sure.\nToyota Prius launch\nToyota Prius launch at Auto Expo 2010\nIf there is a hybrid car which car buyers in India already have heard about, it is the Toyota Prius. The Prius has been the top hybrid car in the United States for years, and even the recent launch of the Honda Insight hybrid failed to dethrone it. The Prius will now be launched in India as a technology flagship model. The car will be launched in the Indian market at Auto Expo 2010, and will come to India as a CBU. That means a price in excess of Rs 25 lakhs in all likelihood. We think this is the only hybrid car planned for a launch in 2010 in India.\nOther Toyota production and concept cars at Auto Expo 2010\nThis is where things are a bit hazy. Toyota can bring a bunch of concept vehicles to the 2010 Auto Expo \u2013 but what would they be? I think we can expect some electrics, hybrids and some semi-supercars.\nProduction cars from Toyota that will make an appearance in the Auto Expo will include the Camry, the super popular Toyota Fortuner SUV and the Innova (maybe face-lifted). Other vehicles will be the Prado, the new land Cruiser and the Corolla Altis.\nAmong Toyota concept cars at the 2010 Auto Expo, we expect to see some of these interesting cars: the Toyota iQ, the Yaris and some fuel cell or electric cars.\n\u00ab Small car launches at Auto Expo 2010\nChevrolet Aveo CNG launch at Auto Expo 2010 \u00bb",

        "title": "The Legal Year That Was - CBS News",
        "raw_content": "The Legal Year That Was\n2002 was supposed to generate contour and definition in the legal war on terror.\nIt also was supposed to be a calm year at the Supreme Court and a ho-hum year for domestic trials and celebrity justice.\nWhat we got instead were deals and delays in the big terror cases, a scintillating pair of Supreme Court terms, and, well, Malvo, Muhammed and Winona.\nWhen the curtain rose on 2002, John Walker Lindh, Zacarias Moussaoui and Richard Reid all were scheduled to stand trial in federal court on terror-related charges. Through the prism of these three cases, we all were destined to learn more about the terror attacks on America and their aftermath.\nWe also were likely to learn a great deal about how the criminal justice system, from its bailiffs to its jurors, reacted to terror cases in the post-9/11 world.\nInstead, we got very little in the way of a public vetting. Lindh, the American Taliban, pleaded guilty to two charges in July and got 20 years in prison. Reid, the shoe-bomber, pleaded guilty and awaits a likely sentence of life in prison. And Moussaoui, the alleged terror conspirator, saw his trial delayed twice.\nLindh and Reid aren't talking and the witnesses against them aren't, either. Moussaoui, meanwhile, now has a late spring trial date. But there is a very good chance it'll never happen. In order to avoid having to give him access to other alleged terrorists, the government may opt instead to transfer him to military custody and prosecute him before one of President Bush's tribunals.\nAs 2001 turned into 2002, it also seemed clear that the Supreme Court would be called upon to resolve some of the broader legal issues raised by the war on terror.\nCan the President unilaterally declare an American citizen an \"enemy combatant\" and order the military to hold that person without charges and the right to speak to his attorney?\nCan the Justice Department close off public immigration hearings?\nAre the most aggressive provisions of the USA Patriot Act - the anti-terror legislation enacted in haste in the weeks after the attacks on New York and Washington - constitutional?\nInstead, however, the cases representing these issues still haven't made their way up to the High Court. Federal appeals courts have begun to tackle the cases of Yaser Esam Hamdi and Jose Padilla, the two \"enemy combatants\" whose cases will help define the President's law enforcement authority.\nOther appellate courts have begun to address anew the scope of the meaning of \"public\" trials in an age of terror. The government has won most of these initial court battles, but it has lost some, too. One year from now, we all ought to know a lot more about whether the administration has overreached in its efforts to re-balance the mix between freedom and security; privacy and surveillance.\nThat's not to say the Supreme Court Justices have been twiddling their thumbs, waiting for monumental issues to meet them. In many ways, 2002 was an extraordinary calendar year for the Court.\nAt the end of last term, the Court approved the use of a school voucher program in Ohio, one that doesn't take money directly from public coffers and puts it into private schools but comes close. The Court this spring also outlawed the death penalty for mentally retarded killers, finding that society had turned its back on the practice over the course of a generation.\nThis fall, the Court took on (or agreed to take on) cases involving affirmative action, three-strikes laws, cross-burning statutes, abortion protests, anti-sodomy statutes, sex-offender registration laws and a few more death penalty cases.\nBy the time the current Court term ends, in June 2003, it may well be remembered as one of the most important of the Rehnquist era -- and that's discounting the possibility that 2003 will be the year in which the Court is asked to resolve those terror law issues noted above.\nThen there are the modern-day Leopold and Loeb, John Lee Malvo and John Muhammed, the alleged Beltway snipers. No single law-related story captured the nation's attention in 2002 like sniper shootings and the hunt for the person or people doing the killing. And once Malvo and Muhammed were captured, no single story within the criminal justice system generated as many interesting questions as did the story involving where and how they would be prosecuted.\nWe now know that both men will be tried in Virginia, under state law, while Maryland and Alabama and the District of Columbia and federal prosecutors wait in the wings.\nMuhammed goes on trial in October 2003. Malvo likely will go to trial around the same time.\nNext year at this time, you can bet we'll all be talking about how their trials played out; how their jurors were selected; and about how their judges ensured fair trials.\nWhich brings me, alas, to Winona Ryder. Easily the least significant story I have ever had to cover, Ryder's shoplifting trial in California became a sort of anti-O.J. symbol of justice in that state.\nThousands of such cases each year never make it to trial. But prosecutors took the actress to trial in part to teach the rest of the country a lesson about shoplifting, as if there aren't more important lessons the criminal justice system can dole out.\nOnce Ryder was convicted, a store official even actually testified as a \"victim\" during sentencing. Who says tabloid justice isn't alive and well in a time of terror?",

        "raw_content": "Christian Nursing Home Cited After Ignoring Fall Risks\nThe Christian Nursing Home in Lincoln, Illinois was fined after numerous deficiencies were identified in the way the nursing home administration treated residents who had suffered from nursing home falls while in the facility.\nThe Christian Nursing Home, like any in Illinois, has an official Fall Prevention policy that indicates that after any resident suffers a nursing home fall at the facility, the Christian Nursing Home administration will conduct an investigation into the cause of the fall, and initiate a specific plan to prevent the fall from happening again.\nUnfortunately for two residents of the Christian Nursing Home, that investigation and care plan never materialized, and they suffered numerous additional falls as a result.\nThe first resident, suffering from muscle deterioration and dementia, required a wheelchair for mobility. Her doctor ordered that she be transferred from her chair to her bed using a standing mechanical lift and two people to assist in the move.\nThe nursing home Plan of Care only called for a standard lift and one staff person. Less than a week later, the resident fell for the first time. Only one person was transferring her. The nursing home investigation failed to mention that her physician had called for a two person transfer, and no changes were made to the initial plan of care.\nIn October, the resident fell again during a one person transfer. This time, medical personnel at a Lincoln, Illinois hospital determined she suffered a broken leg.\nAnother resident with Alzheimer\u2019s disease and congestive heart failure fell in September and twice in December. There were no new interventions developed after any of these falls. After another fall in January, a seat alarm was ordered for her chair. On January 20th, she fell again getting clothes from her closet. The seat alarm battery was dead.\nNursing homes have an obligation to take action to prevent nursing home falls. Once a resident falls for the first time, the likelihood of additional falls and injuries increases dramatically. If you have a loved one who has been injured after one or more nursing home falls, and you feel they have been the victim of nursing home neglect, contact my law offices for a free and confidential evaluation of your case.",

        "raw_content": "Billionaire Wilbur Ross said to be Trump\u2019s pick for commerce secretary\nWilbur Ross is Donald Trump's nominee to be the Commerce secretary. Here's some background on Ross.\nPresident-elect Donald Trump plans to pick investor Wilbur Ross, who became a billionaire by acquiring and restructuring troubled companies, for Commerce Department secretary, said two people familiar with the transition.\nAn announcement may come Wednesday, according to the people, who asked for anonymity.\nRoss would oversee a sprawling agency of almost 47,000 that describes itself as \u201cthe voice of U.S. business within the President\u2019s Cabinet.\u201d Under the Commerce umbrella are entities as diverse as the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office; the Bureau of Economic Analysis, which provides official macroeconomic statistics about the U.S. economy; and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which among other things tracks hurricanes and has a key role in monitoring the effects of climate change.\nRoss, 79, a longtime Democrat, backed Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney in 2012. He emerged as an advocate for Trump\u2019s trade and economic agenda when the real estate developer was still seen as a long shot against Democrat Hillary Clinton, and denounced Romney for criticizing Trump.\nAs Commerce secretary, Ross would be charged with executing some of Trump\u2019s most ambitious plans. The president-elect campaigned on promises to scrap the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement, slap tariffs on U.S. companies that move abroad and then try to sell goods back into the country, take a tough approach to China including naming it a currency manipulator, revive the U.S. steel industry, and spend big on infrastructure. His appeal to blue-collar white workers in the Rust Belt helped sweep him to victory.\n\u201cTrump\u2019s pro-growth agenda will get this economy growing,\u201d Ross wrote in a joint opinion piece in October for RealClearPolicy with CKE Restaurants Inc. chief executive officer Andy Puzder and economist Peter Navarro. \u201cIt is a solemn promise based on a solid set of interactive and highly synergistic policies designed to free the American economy from the chains that have been wrapped around it during the Obama-Clinton years.\u201d\nReaching deep into conservative territory, President-elect Donald Trump chose Georgia Rep. Tom Price to oversee the nation's health care system on Tuesday, picking a fierce \"Obamacare\" critic who also has championed efforts to privatize Medicare. Trump selected another veteran Republican, Elaine...\nRoss, in an interview with CNBC in June, called for \u201ca more radical, new approach to the government\u201d to help middle-class and lower middle-class Americans who have \u201cnot really benefited by the last 10 to 15 years of economic activity and they\u2019re sick and tired of it.\u201d\nRoss\u2019 seminal deal, starting in 2002, cobbled once-iconic steel-making companies into International Steel Group Inc., what was then the nation\u2019s second-largest integrated steelmaker. He and his backers in 2004 announced the sale of the Ohio-based firm for about $4.5 billion to Indian-born, U.K.-based steel billionaire Lakshmi Mittal, reaping more than an eightfold profit, about $2.9 billion.\nRoss also put together deals in the coal mining, automotive parts and textile industries, among others.\nIf the Republican-controlled Senate confirms Ross after Trump is inaugurated in January, the investor would succeed another billionaire, Obama appointee Penny Pritzker. The Chicago hotelier was one of the wealthiest Cabinet secretaries in history, disclosing assets in the range of $400 million to $2.2 billion, not counting more than $50 million in Hyatt Hotels stock. She is now worth about $3 billion, according to a Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimate. Ross\u2019 net worth matches Pritzker\u2019s at some $2.9 billion.\nRoss\u2019 previous dealings with Trump include representing bondholders in the bankruptcy of his Taj Mahal Casino Resort, which at the time was Atlantic City, N.J.\u2019s biggest and flashiest gambling house, helping them to recover their debts.\nThe deal gave creditors a 50 percent stake, but also allowed Trump to remain as chairman, according to Associated Press accounts at the time. It came more than 12 hours after Trump missed a $47.3 million interest payment on $675 million worth of high-yield bonds used to finance the gambling house. Bondholders had threatened to seize control of the Taj Mahal in what could have been a protracted fight, according to the news service.\nTodd Ricketts, co-owner of the Chicago Cubs, is in line to be appointed as deputy secretary of commerce, according to a person familiar with transition planning for President-elect Donald Trump.\nTrump is also expected to nominate investor Wilbur Ross, who became a billionaire by acquiring and restructuring...\n\u201cWe could have foreclosed, and he would have been gone,\u201d Ross told the New York Post.\nRoss, a New Jersey native, earned a bachelor\u2019s degree from Yale and an MBA from Harvard Business School before working on Wall Street as a bankruptcy specialist at Rothschild Inc. He opened his own firm, WL Ross & Co., in 2000, where he serves as chairman and chief strategy officer. Ross bet billions by combining companies in U.S. industries such as steel, coal, auto parts and textiles that were threatened by overseas competition and onerous labor contracts.\nRoss strove to keep on labor\u2019s good side even as his taste in investments made them natural enemies.\n\u201cLeaders of some of the big industrial unions, the steelworkers, the autoworkers \u2014 they understand the dynamics of the industry at least as well as the senior management of the companies,\u201d Ross said in a 2010 interview with Charlie Rose. Leo Gerard, who led the United Steelworkers when Ross bought LTV, lauded the investor for revitalizing the company, although officials at other unions judged him less kindly.\nFormer Vice President Dan Quayle was among those visiting Trump Tower on Tuesday.Quayle entered the Manhattan high-rise that's home to President-elect Donald Trump accompanied by Kellyanne Conway, a top adviser to the incoming commander in chief.Quayle was President George H. W. Bush's vice president...\nThe choice of Ross confounds campaign rhetoric in which Trump condemned the elite institutions that populate Wall Street. Steven Mnuchin, who spent 17 years at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and later ran a hedge fund, was picked by Trump as the next U.S. Treasury secretary, a person familiar with the decision said on Tuesday.\nTrump last week picked Betsy DeVos, a charter schools activist who has given millions to conservative causes, as his secretary of Education. She is the daughter-in-law of billionaire Richard DeVos Sr., who co-founded Alticor, the parent company of direct-seller Amway.\nSen. Elizabeth Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat, has assailed Trump about what she called a slew of \u201cspecial interests, Wall Street elites and insiders\u201d joining the White House transition team.",

Bosham has an exciting and varied history. It's from Bosham that Harold set of sail for Normandy in 1064 and the ancient Holy Trinity Church in Bosham can be seen on the Bayeux Tapestry.\nIt's also commonly thought that Bosham is the site from which King Canute tried to use his royal power to turn back the tide. It is, in fact, more likely that King Canute used the incoming tide at Bosham to demonstrate that not even a king has the power to prevent such a force of nature. It's also believed that King Canute\u2019s daughter drowned in the stream at Bosham in the early 11th century and her remains buried in the church grounds.\nHistory aside, Bosham Quay is a beautiful place for a walk, and there is always something of interest going on in this thriving sailing village. A regular sight is that of partially submerged cars that have failed to take note of the \u2018This road floods each tide\u2019 sign. The demise of many a parked vehicle!\nThe quay is also a favourite spot for artists and photographers, where you'll find plenty of photo opportunities and is a popular place for walkers and cyclists who enjoy watching the variety of wildlife in the harbour waters, including shellduck, wigeon, Brent geese, waders and migrating wildfowl.\nBosham Quay can be accessed at all times, and is a great place to soak up harbour life both in the summer and winter.\nThere is no cost to visit Bosham\nBosham has pubs, cafes, a regular ice cream van, galleries, parking and toilets\nFrom Chichester take the A259 towards Bosham. At the Bosham roundabout take the left onto Delling Lane. At the end of the road turn right and follow the road round until you reach the Pay & Display car park.\nBy train: the nearest train station is Bosham.

        "raw_content": "Subscribe To The Amazing Spider-Man Producers Set The Stage For A Venom Movie Updates\nThe Amazing Spider-Man Producers Set The Stage For A Venom Movie\nThough Venom was set up as a pretty promising villain in Spider-Man 3, so many other things went wrong after that movie that the entire franchise underwent a reboot, leaving hopes for a Venom movie languishing somewhere at Sony. But with The Amazing Spider-Man coming in just a few weeks, there's new hope for Venom as well, with Chronicle's Josh Trank up to direct it and, of course, The Avengers getting every studio more interested in superheroes than ever before.\nInterviews for The Amazing Spider-Man took place over the weekend in New York, and when Hollywood.com caught up with the film's producers Avi Arad and Matthew Tolmach, they talked a little about how Venom, which they call their next project, will fit into the world established by The Amazing Spider-Man. Namely, they're basically the same world: \"Look for the worlds to make sense with one another,\" Tolmach promised. And Arad got a little further into the kind of big plans they have for Venom, a.k.a. Eddie Brock:\n\"It's an Eddie Brock story. We want to be as close to the comics as possible. Especially in Eddie Brock's story. But again, pseudo-sceince is becoming science. All these tidbits about webs, artificial webs, is a huge industry now. Spiderwebs have unique qualities that will be huge for communications, fibers, and so forth. So we have taken the approach that we want to make the huge amazing movie about Eddie.\"\nWhat's still unclear, though, is how the success of the new Spider-Man might affect Venom. Obviously every superhero movie from here on out is hoping for Avengers-level business, but right now Spider-Man doesn't seem to have that kind of interest, which might make it hard to start building a big franchise. Then again, we've got several weeks to go before the movie comes out, and July 4 weekend is such a big time for moviegoing that a ton of people will wind up seeing it no matter what. But when The Amazing Spider-Man opens on July 3, you can start looking for the story threads that will eventually lead us to Eddie Brock.",

Odom Jr., who took home a 2016 Tony Award for best performance by an actor in a leading role for his portrayal of Aaron Burr in \"Hamilton,\" will join CBS star Katharine McPhee to announce the 2018 Tony Award nominees. The Tony Awards announced his role today; the nominations will take place at Lincoln Center Tuesday, May 1, and will, in part, be broadcast on \"CBS This Morning.\"\nSince his graduation in 2003, Odom Jr. worked hard to make it in the entertainment industry. Although he made his Broadway debut at the age of 17 in \"Rent,\" prior to his CMU graduation, and went on to take roles in numerous television series (including \"SMASH,\" with McPhee and fellow CMU alumni Christian Borle and Megan Hilty), he couldn't find the kind of star-making turns he was searching for. Then came \"Hamilton.\" His performance as Burr in 2015 earned him a Drama Desk Award nomination for \"Outstanding Featured Actor in a Musical\" and his career has blossomed ever since.\nHe was a featured performer at this year's Super Bowl, he starred in \"Murder on the Orient Express\" with fellow CMU alumnus Josh Gad, he is the spokesman for Nationwide Insurance and, on the personal side, he married actress and singer Nicolette Robinson and is now dad to a 1-year-old daughter. He's currently working on a feature film with actress Kate Hudson.\nHe describes his struggles and subsequent successes in his new book, \"Failing Up,\" which he wrote because he wanted others to see that the journey to success may not be easy, but it can happen through hard work, faith and the support of friends and family.\n\"I started from nothing,\" Odom recently told Guidepost.org. \"It was a really tough road to get to this very fortunate position that I find myself in now. I think there's something that's important in holding your private struggles and your battles, holding that up against the triumphs; it makes the triumphs sweeter.\"\nThe American Theatre Wing honors Broadway's best individuals and productions. Carnegie Mellon alumni have won 44 Tony Awards. CMU's School of Drama consistently ranks as one of the world's best drama schools and is recognized as an international leader in arts and technology. Year after year, the School of Drama produces graduates who go on to do award-winning work, both on stage and behind the scenes.\nCMU also is the exclusive higher education partner of the Tony Awards. As part of the collaboration, the two organizations launched the Tony Honor for Excellence in Theatre Education, the first national recognition program to honor kindergarten through high-school (K-12) theatre educators.\nThe 2018 Tony Awards, presented by The Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing, will air live on CBS on Sunday, June 10.

        "raw_content": "Man Leaves Corporate Life To Open College Hunks Franchise In St. Paul\nBusinessman jumps off the corporate ladder to open a College Hunks moving franchise in the St. Paul area\nMany people get fed up with climbing the corporate ladder, but few actually do something about it. One person who did just that is Jeremy Knospe, who recently opened a College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving franchise in the St. Paul, Minnesota, area.\nAfter several years with a large corporation, Jeremy was ready to find a new challenge and re-take control over his own life. The trick, however, was finding an opportunity that meshed with his career experience.\nWhat cities and neighborhoods will you be serving?\nI am on a state border. I actually live in Wisconsin and my office will be in Wisconsin, but my territory runs from downtown St. Paul, then out to the east towards Wisconsin and north towards the top end of the Stillwater ZIP code, then south to the southern end of the Hastings ZIP code, which are both Minnesota cities. I even have the Hudson ZIP code in Wisconsin, so effectively I operate in all of western Wisconsin as well.\nYou must be anxious to get started!\nYes, my junk hauling truck will hopefully be arriving next week. The moving truck is on its way as well but will not be here until later in July. So, I\u2019ll be renting a truck in the meantime.\nWhat was your career before you decided to get into College Hunks?\nReally it has been three careers. Right out of college I started a landscape design installation company, which I owned for about 5 years. It went well but I sold it when I got married and got a job as a Project Manager for a residential light commercial construction company here in western Wisconsin. I did that for about 5 years, and then in 2007, there was a downturn in the housing market, so I went for a more stable job at a large, national facility services company. with over 100,000 employees. So, it was a big difference going from 10 years in small business to 10 years in big corporate America. I worked for all kinds of different customers like airports, the Postal Service and universities. I spent the last couple of years working for a single client, UnitedHealth Group, as a national account manager for them. It was a large job and a great job. I was making a lot of money and enjoyed learning all of the different components that were necessary to get the job done, but it wasn\u2019t fulfilling for me in a lot of ways.\nWhat was lacking about it?\nA lot of things. But a big thing was a lack of engagement in my community due to the long commute. I commuted all the way to the other side of the Twin Cities Metro area to my office, about 55 miles each way right through the heart of the Twin Cities area. It took me at least an hour to get there and at least an hour and a half to get back, so you add that on top of a 9- or 10-hour day and it gets to be pretty draining. So, I really wasn\u2019t engaged with the community there, other than my work, and by the time I got home I didn\u2019t have much energy left to be engaged in my community, either.\nHow did you decide you wanted to look into owning your own business again, specifically franchising?\nI had started a business from scratch before and I really wasn\u2019t interested in reinventing the wheel this time, especially since launching a new business is so all-encompassing if you don\u2019t have some sort of template to go off of. So, right away I thought about doing a franchise. Also, since I have 3 kids and a wife, I wanted to make sure that I had the ability to spend time with my children and attend their activities as well.\nHow did you find out about College Hunks?\nI had actually done some research on my own was looking for a company that fit my skill set and all my other objectives. My career had always been the service industry, like landscaping, building houses and facility services. I really figured I should stay in that lane, so I looked at different franchises that were in the service arena and one of those was College Hunks. After that I also contacted a broker and College Hunks was one of the companies he picked out for me as well, so we took off from there.\nWhat is that you liked about College Hunks?\nI liked a lot of things about College Hunks. I was impressed with their brand and logo, which is very catchy and bright. The culture is good. I really liked the founders\u2019 approach on the business and the ability to make a successful brand in a market. I was also impressed with the business model itself, the scalability and multiple revenue streams. That last one was a major draw for me.\nWhat do you like about the multiple revenue streams?\nTo me, having multiple revenue streams is kind of like hedging your bets, as well as creating more opportunity. If one service doesn\u2019t work as well in my market, maybe the other one will be more beneficial. Also, I have been in business long enough to know there are ebbs and flows, so it\u2019s better to have multiple revenue streams to help offset any slump one of them may have.\nSo, junk hauling and moving, but what else?\nWell, labor services, for example. I see many avenues for additional revenue streams beyond what you would call junk hauling and moving. The labor is another component that can really help set us apart. We can satisfy many types of customers and fill my employees\u2019 schedule at the same time. I think a great example would be, for instance, if we had a relationship with a Realtor. We could operate moves for them, help stage houses, or just assist them with tidying up or whatever the case might be. Really, just about anything on the labor side, as long as our people have the skillset to get the work done, I think there is opportunity in that.\nHow has the support from College Hunks been?\nThe support has been pretty good; the franchise training was very good. I enjoyed that a lot. They give you documentation and materials with some forms and reading material and books and quite a few things like that. They give you a startup coach, whom I have a one-on-one with at least once a week, if not more. There are some fellow franchise owners who have helped me out as well.\nA lot of people talk about College Hunks having a really unique culture and really strong core values. Would you agree and, if so, what has really resonated with you?\nI would agree with that. I do believe that they have a strong culture, and maybe that is partially because they bring people who value that strong culture on board. I am happy with the brand, and it has exceeded my expectations in many areas. I think it is energetic. I like that there is a lot of drive from the employees, especially at Brand Central. It\u2019s cutting-edge in many ways, especially their philosophy and their approach to business, which is to create a fun environment. I enjoy that having just come from corporate America, where energy and fun are generally squeezed out of everything you do.\nLearn more about College Hunks Hauling Junk",

        "raw_content": "Home Center Well Natural gas industry regulators, officials say fracking chemical disclosure won\u2019t stop spills\nNatural gas industry regulators, officials say fracking chemical disclosure won\u2019t stop spills\nColorado\u2019s top oil and gas regulator and the head of one of the state\u2019s leading industry lobbying groups both say federal legislation compelling disclosure of the chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing would not have prevented the state\u2019s worst cases of groundwater contamination.\nCOGCC Director David Neslin\n\u201cHas the action of injecting at high pressure these fluids into the hydrocarbon formation, do we have evidence that that has contaminated groundwater? No, we don\u2019t,\u201d said David Neslin, executive director of the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which regulates natural gas drilling for the state.\n\u201cBut I\u2019ve also made no secret of the fact that, yes, there have been other operational aspects of oil and gas development such as pit leaks, pipeline breaks and in a couple of cases bad cement jobs that have leaked methane, which have impacted the environment.\u201d\nU.S. Reps. Diana DeGette and Jared Polis, both Colorado Democrats, are sponsors of the Fracturing Responsibility and Awareness of Chemicals (FRAC) Act, which would require public disclosure of chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing, or \u201cfracking.\u201d\nDeGette says it\u2019s necessary to disclose the chemicals and regulate the process under the Safe Drinking Water Act because of public fears and anecdotal evidence that fracking has contaminated groundwater supplies. The process has been exempt fro the Water Act since the Energy Policy Act of 2005.\nIndustry officials, however, say secrecy is necessary for proprietary reasons. They also maintain fracking \u2014 which involves the high-pressure injection of mostly water, sand and some chemical additives deep into natural gas wells to force open fissures and free up more gas \u2014 occurs so far below the surface that there\u2019s no way the chemicals, some of which are known human carcinogens, are contaminating much shallower groundwater supplies.\n\u201cThe main question that I contemplate is why the focus on disclosure?\u201d said Tisha Schuller, executive director of the Colorado Oil and Gas Association (COGA). \u201cDisclosure doesn\u2019t actually prevent groundwater contamination.\u201d\nSchuller also echoed Neslin\u2019s sentiments in an article posted on the COGA website: \u201cThe two most important areas to prevent environmental effects are spills and proper well construction. Both of these areas are regulated by state law.\u201d\nBut DeGette, the ranking member of the House Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, has helped spearhead two recent congressional probes showing the use of diesel fuel in fracking, as well as up to 29 known human carcinogens.\n\u201cWe have all of this anecdotal reporting of hydraulic fracturing fluid harming people, but because [companies] don\u2019t have to report what\u2019s in it [under the Safe Drinking Water Act], then we don\u2019t have proof that that\u2019s what\u2019s harming people,\u201d DeGette said, \u201cso I\u2019ve suggested an interim remedy since the industry says there\u2019s nothing wrong with this fluid of reporting it.\u201d\nHer bill would only require companies to report the types of chemicals used in fracking, not the proportions. Current Colorado regulations require operators to keep a list of chemicals being used on site at drilling operations and to make it available to state regulators and emergency responders upon request within 24 hours.\n\u201cBut if the industry thinks, \u2018Well, gee, we should regulate these holding ponds and the casings and things like that,\u2019 what that is, that\u2019s my original bill that they really disagree with,\u201d DeGette said. \u201cSo they may not want to make that argument, because the issue of disclosure is sort of a medium-range issue.\u201d\nThe record state fine for contamination of a drinking water well was leveled against Oklahoma-based Williams, the largest natural gas producer on Colorado\u2019s Western Slope. Ned Prather chugged benzene-laced water from his well near Prather Springs, prompting a $423,000 fine for Williams and shattering the old mark of $390,000 against Oxy USA in the Cascade Canyon spill.\n\u201cWould requiring the disclosure of the chemicals in the fracking fluid that was used for the well in question have better protected Mr. Prather from impact or prevented a leak of condensate from the pit? No, it wouldn\u2019t have,\u201d Neslin said. \u201cA better lined pit and better monitoring and maintenance of the pit would have reduced the risks in question in the Prather situation and so that\u2019s what we should be focusing on.\u201d\nLined holding pits are used to store fracking fluids for re-use, but they also hold condensate (hydrocarbons naturally present in the formation that come to the surface during drilling) and produced water (water naturally in the formation that\u2019s \u201cproduced\u201d along with oil and gas).\nThe most famous case of groundwater contamination occurred when a badly cemented well bore resulted in methane flowing into West Divide Creek in Garfield County. For years, that case held the record fine amount of more than $370,000 leveled against EnCana.\n\u201cThe cement job that everybody thinks of is Divide Creek of course, and that didn\u2019t involve contamination by fracking fluids. It involved contamination by methane,\u201d Neslin said. \u201cThese are important issues, but we need to deal with them factually and deal with them specifically and deal with them in context.\u201d\nNeslin was accused by the nonprofit Checks and Balances Project of misleading the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee when he testified last month that hydraulic fracturing has never been found to have contaminated groundwater in Colorado. He later told the project\u2019s reporter that other aspects of drilling \u2013 bad cement jobs, pit leaks and pipeline failures \u2013 have caused contamination.\n\u201cI don\u2019t view it as compartmentalizing,\u201d Neslin said. \u201cI view it as our job as regulators to look at the different aspects of oil and gas development, try to understand the risks associated with those different operations or aspects of development and ensure that those risks are properly regulated and mitigated.\u201d\nBut Democratic lawmakers, and even some Republicans, continue to make the argument that if hydraulic fracturing is so benign, then the industry should simply disclose the chemicals and no longer hide behind the Safe Drinking Water Act exemption for the process granted by Congress during the Bush administration in 2005.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a Catch 22 in that there\u2019s no reporting [of chemicals] and so they say there\u2019s no evidence [of fracking contaminating groundwater], so let\u2019s find out,\u201d House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told the Colorado Independent. \u201cIt may be that they\u2019re not in violation of the Safe Drinking Water Act and that they\u2019re going deeper or whatever it happens to be. But if there\u2019s so much natural gas that they want to get at, the public has a right to know.\u201d\nNeslin said that so far this year about 75 percent of the new natural gas wells in Colorado have been drilled by companies that are participating in or have committed to participating in the state\u2019s new voluntary disclosure website. He hopes that percentage will only increase over time.\n\u201cI know that there have been concerns about the fact that it\u2019s a voluntary website, but if you look on the website, it contains an impressive level of detail and information and in terms of accuracy there are ways that organizations involved can audit the information or have audits of the information done to hopefully provide even greater levels of credibility for that website,\u201d he said.\nTisha Schuller\nWe know where Walker Stapleton stands on oil and gas.

Under the headline, \u201cPlans Underway for Care Net\u2019s Newest Center in Kansas City, Mo.!\u201d a block of upbeat text described how a predominantly white, suburban nonprofit called Rachel House had \u201cmade contact\u201d with \u201cvarious African American pastors and community leaders,\u201d who helped them \u201cplant\u201d a \u201cpregnancy resource center\u201d in a predominantly black, poor section of downtown Kansas City.\nRachel House\u2019s mission is clear: It is an evangelical ministry with the primary goal of \u201cprotecting the unborn.\u201d But the nonprofit doesn\u2019t do picket signs and bloody-fetus images. Instead, it draws in young women facing unintended pregnancies with things like free pregnancy testing, first-trimester ultrasounds and baby supplies. The Rachel House team proudly emphasizes the quality of its care. \u201cWe tell all of our clients, \u2018Even though you\u2019ve done a pregnancy test at home, we\u2019re going to do another one here,\u2019 \u201d explains Rachel House client services director Susanne Hanley. \u201cWe buy the hospital-strength pregnancy tests.

DONATE today!\nIn some ways, Care Net\u2019s Kansas City operation is neither unique nor new. For nearly 20 years, the evangelical anti-abortion movement has used standalone crisis pregnancy centers to dissuade girls and women from ending unintended pregnancies. These mostly volunteer-staffed centers posit themselves as neutral, nonjudgmental sources of information about abortion, sexually transmitted diseases, adoption and abstinence. As Americans United for Life\u2019s Jeanneane Maxon told the New York Times in January, \u201cThey\u2019re really the darlings of the pro-life movement\u201d due to their \u201cground level, one-on-one, reaching-the-woman-where-she\u2019s-at approach.\u201d\nSince 2004, Rachel House has run centers in two Kansas City suburbs\u2013one in Lee\u2019s Summit, across the street from a high school, and one in the Northland, next door to Planned Parenthood. Both areas are about 85 percent white and solidly middle class. Rachel House raises most of its funds through events like golf tournaments and \u201cbaby bottle drives\u201d that challenge congregants to fill up empty bottles with cash and checks and return them to church on Sunday.\nThe new Rachel House, however, is on 46th St. and Paseo, in the heart of the city. It sits across the street from J\u2019s Pawn & Fine Jewelry, where patrons can cash checks and get payday loans. This area is mostly black, up to 36 percent of its residents are poor and it has one of the highest infant mortality rates in town.\n\u201cA couple of years ago we revisited our mission statement,\u201d says Rachel House president Kathy Edwards, a middle-aged, married mother who eerily resembles \u201cBig Love\u201d star Mary Kay Place. \u201cWhen you\u2019re passionate about doing something, you want to do it well. We asked ourselves if we were where women were more apt to get abortions, because there\u2019s not a pregnancy center for them to go to. And we thought, \u2018No. We\u2019re not in the urban core.\u2019\u201d\nEvangelicals have long approached their anti-abortion work with missionary zeal. But over the past four years, national anti-abortion strategists have designated \u201curban\u201d and \u201cunderserved\u201d women and babies as a priority for saving. In practice, these terms tend to be euphemisms for \u201cblack\u201d and, to a lesser extent, \u201cLatina.\u201d\nBecause crisis pregnancy centers are independently run and unregulated, it\u2019s hard to say for sure how many there are in the United States. In a frequently cited 2010 report, the Family Research Council, a Christian right organizer and think tank, says there are more than 1,900 centers in the country affiliated with three major networks: Care Net, Heartbeat International and the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates. An entire section of the report is devoted to the \u201curban\u201d work of pregnancy centers. \u201cThe concentration of abortion facilities in urban, minority and poorer areas of the U.S. is well-known,\u201d the report declares.\nThe \u201cconcentration\u201d claim has already been thoroughly debunked, but many anti-abortion activists still believe deeply in it. It\u2019s that belief, in part, that\u2019s stirred outrage over the gruesome story of Kermit Gosnell\u2019s Philadelphia clinic in recent weeks. Gosnell is being prosecuted for conducting illegal, dangerous late-term abortions, and rightwing pundits have argued that mainstream media ignored the story because it drew unflattering attention to abortion providers in poor, black neighborhoods. The implication is that anti-abortion activists care more about poor women of color than do the Planned Parenthoods of the world.\nIn its 2011 federal tax filing, Care Net reported spending nearly $1 million trying to \u201ceducate inner-city communities\u201d and develop centers in \u201cunderserved areas.\u201d In talking about this work, Care Net typically promotes North Philadelphia\u2019s black-owned Hope Center as a model. But Rachel House offers a window into a different story, one that has unfolded in a series of headline-grabbing controversies over the past three years.\nFueled by a race-baiting, national marketing campaign and the missionary-like evangelism of its affiliates, Care Net has turned the complex reality behind black abortion rates into a single, fictional story. In that story, poor black women who have abortions are the unwitting victims of feminists and morally deficient reproductive healthcare providers, embodied in sadists such as Gosnell. Crisis pregnancy centers, in this fable, are the best place those women can go to be saved.\nIn 2009, a white Texas-based anti-abortion activist named Mark Crutcher released a film he wrote and directed, \u201cMaafa 21: Black Genocide in the 21st Century.\u201d Crutcher populated the film with African-American community activists and pastors who have close ties to radical tea party Republicans\u2013familiar faces like Stephen Broden and Alveda King, a conservative niece of Martin Luther King Jr. Over 138 dizzying minutes, \u201cMaafa 21\u201d advances a familiar accusation: That Margaret Sanger, founder of the American Birth Control League and Planned Parenthood, was a eugenicist in cahoots with wealthy, Northeastern white supremacists who wanted to eliminate \u201cthe unfit,\u201d including poor blacks. The film presents Sanger\u2019s work to legalize birth control as part of the plot.\nThe film builds its case with quick flashes of historical documents, mainstream news articles and what it presents as clippings from the Black Panther Party\u2019s iconic newspaper. It is at its most compelling when it presents an interview with Elaine Riddick, a black rape survivor who in 1968 was surreptitiously sterilized on orders from the North Carolina Eugenics Board, immediately after giving birth to the son conceived during the sexual assault. Riddick, who has unsuccessfully sued North Carolina for restitution, describes how she was cast as \u201cfeeble minded\u201d and therefore unfit to reproduce. \u201cMaafa 21\u201d is the closest the predominantly white, Christian right has come to successfully exploiting Black Nationalist themes and aesthetics.\nAt a Juneteenth congressional screening, Rep. Trent Franks, a white tea party Republican from Arizona who routinely compares voluntary abortion to chattel slavery, called the film a vital weapon against \u201cracist abortion policy.\u201d \u201cI hope people will see this movie. \u2026 Especially [in] the African-American community [which] can give voice to the truth that it demonstrates so clearly.\u201d\nCare Net hopes so as well. A full-color pamphlet, which Edwards says her center will distribute at 46th and Paseo, tells readers that \u201cthe black community has been targeted by Planned Parenthood and others,\u201d resulting in \u201cover 15 million black lives eliminated,\u201d a claim taken directly from \u201cMaafa 21.\u201d\n\u201cThe first time I remember hearing that 43 percent of African-American pregnancies end in abortion might have been through Dean Nelson at Care Net,\u201d Edwards says. Nelson, a black Washington, D.C.-area minister, is vice president of Care Net\u2019s \u201cunderserved outreach.\u201d \u201cHe also said that in New York, they\u2019re as high as 60 percent. And not only that, but that African Americans only make up 13 percent of the population, so there\u2019s a higher abortion rate and a lower population.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s very disproportionate,\u201d Hanley chimes in.\nRace-based abortion reporting is notoriously uneven. States can choose whether and to what extent they\u2019re going to collect and share this information with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC\u2019s most recent surveillance report (from 2009) didn\u2019t include 23 states. It excludes most of the Northeast, as well as heavily white Midwestern states that would likely boost the abortion rate among whites. Also missing are California, Florida, and North Carolina, which are among the most densely populated states in the nation. It\u2019s hard to draw real conclusions about race from this data.\nStill, based on what we do know about the racial differences in abortion, the disparities are alarming. In 2009, black women ages 15 to 44 had 477 abortions per 1,000 live births, according to the CDC. The ratio for Latinas was 195 per 1,000. For white women it was 140 to 1,000. Data from the Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that race-concerned pro-lifers routinely dismiss because of its historical ties to Planned Parenthood, show that black women are more than five times as likely to undergo the procedure than white women.\nGuttmacher attributes the disparity to similarly dramatic inequities in birth control access. And according to a a 2006 survey by the Institute, the most prominent reason that women have abortions is because they can\u2019t afford a baby at the moment and they think an infant would hinder them from going to school, working or caring for the kids they already have.\nBut anti-abortion leaders have severed the data on abortion rates from all of this context, and exploited a lack of more recent, comprehensive research to advance their talking points. \u201cMaafa 21\u201d spells out the claim in a text slide it flashes:\n\u201cSince 1973, legal abortion has killed more African-Americans than AIDS, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and violent crime combined. Every week more blacks die in American abortion clinics than were killed in the entire Vietnam war. And the largest chain of abortion clinics in the United States is operated by Planned Parenthood.\u201d\nCare Net and its allies have used this kind of material to drive a massive marketing campaign in black communities over the past three years. The campaign\u2019s most prominent platform has been a series of billboards that label black children as endangered species and declare black women\u2019s wombs \u201cthe most dangerous place\u201d for their children. The first round appeared in Atlanta, to dovetail with Black History Month in 2010. It sparked just as much controversy as you\u2019d expect.\nThe 80-board series sent passersby to toomanyaborted.com, a site that solicited funds for the Radiance Foundation and listed Option Line, Care Net\u2019s jointly operated phone referral service, as a resource. The Radiance Foundation is the tax-exempt concern of Ryan Scott Bomberger, a biracial evangelical web designer, singer, Republican operative and adoptee, who frequently tells the story of how his birth mother was raped in 1971 but made the \u201cselfless choice\u201d of having him.\nWhile Bomberger fronted the campaign, Georgia Right to Life paid for it, as part of what appears to have been a suite of marketing around black people and abortion. The virulently anti-Obama group tapped Catherine Davis\u2013a black Republican who had run two failed congressional campaigns\u2013to circulate press releases and talk up the \u201cholocaustic impact\u201d of black women\u2019s voluntary abortions. Meanwhile, it pushed a Georgia state bill to outlaw sex- and race-selective abortions, despite scant evidence that this was a problem. The bill never made it out of the House, but it spurred the intended false debate over abortion as genocide.\nIn 2011\u2013again during Black History Month\u2013another anti-abortion marketing firm, Heroic Media, sponsored a billboard in New York City that again declared, \u201cThe most dangerous place for an African American is in the womb.\u201d Onlookers were directed to thatsabortion.com, another site that promotes Care Net\u2019s Option Line, condemns Planned Parenthood and solicits funds for Life Always.\nAll of these billboard campaigns stirred a great deal of attention and anxiety in the reproductive justice world. In the popular media, they were largely discussed as a messaging campaign, which in part they were. But the message wasn\u2019t only a repetition of the \u201cMaafa 21\u201d conspiracy theories. It was also actionable. Each billboard sought to drive black women into the hands of a center like Rachel House, where they could be welcomed with missionary zeal by women like Hanley and Edwards.\nWhen I arrive at 4605 Paseo Blvd., the site of Rachel House\u2019s sprawling new office in the Gates Barbecue administrative complex, about six volunteers and staff members are unpacking boxes and awaiting a furniture delivery. They\u2019re all white.\nThe walls of the space are blank and the rooms bare, but the space still has the trappings of its previous occupant, the teen clinic of Children\u2019s Mercy Hospital. There\u2019s a front desk behind glass, a large waiting area and two exam rooms with hulking ultrasound machines. Between the office space and Rachel House\u2019s website, which uses the slogan, \u201cYour right to choose. Your right to know,\u201d you might even think you were visiting a family planning clinic.\nBut like the marketing campaign to get women in the door, everything is geared toward delivering a message, rather than providing a service to black women. The \u201chospital-strength\u201d pregnancy tests, for instance, produce results in about five minutes, but Rachel House requires girls to \u201cvisit\u201d with a \u201cclient advocate\u201d prior to receiving them. If a pregnant client says she\u2019s keeping her baby, a Rachel House staff member or volunteer helps her with anything from filling out Medicaid paperwork to faith-based counseling. But, says Hanley, \u201cIf a girl is ambivalent about what she wants to do, we\u2019ll just sit and talk to her. \u2026 We\u2019ll just ask her, \u2018Have you read about the different kinds of abortion? Do you know what the risks involved are? Do you know if that\u2019s exactly what you want to do?\u2019\u201d\nRachel House also uses sonography to sway reluctant clients. \u201cOur ultrasound machines can pretty clearly [detect] a 6-week-old baby and we can perform them for up to 14 weeks,\u201d says Hanley, a 40-something wife and mother who had an abortion at 19 that she now likens to murder. \u201cI\u2019ve seen a lot of girls\u2019 countenance completely change when they see their babies. In fact, there is a national statistic about this\u2013the 80 percent rule,\u201d Hanley explains.\n\u201cIt\u2019s that 80 percent of the time, if she comes to a pregnancy center or an ultrasound facility and she sees her baby, she\u2019ll choose life,\u201d adds Edwards, who also had an abortion she regrets deeply. \u201cI\u2019d have a 40-year-old child that I don\u2019t have now,\u201d she says. \u201cI wish that back then someone had talked through my fears with me.\u201d\nBut both women know they are not the correct someone for downtown Kansas City. They are in fact as convinced of their mission\u2019s humility as they are of its righteousness. \u201cThis is a strong voice coming from this community,\u201d Edwards insists. \u201cIf we were just, frankly, a bunch of suburban white women coming into the black community saying, \u2018We know what\u2019s best for you, and you don\u2019t know,\u2019 that would be a little bit degrading.\u201d\nRather, Edwards believes deeply and passionately that her work facilitates racial reconciliation.\n\u201cI\u2019ll tell you that this has been a healing and exciting experience for us and for a lot of African-American friends we\u2019re working with,\u201d she tells me, with her voice wavering and her default smile widening. \u201cWe\u2019re having discussions about things we never would have talked about before. We\u2019re seeing each other as real people with real minds and real hearts and not buying the stereotypical things that we\u2019ve learned about each other from our separate corners of the city. So it\u2019s really been an amazing time to see some unity come to Kansas City.\u201d\nThat unity, however, has taken the form primarily of partnerships between suburban, white evangelicals and conservative black men.\n\u201cInstead of trying to come to the urban core and work in an environment that we know nothing about, we contacted some friends with Black Americans for Life,\u201d Edwards explains.\nEdwards, a 21-year veteran of the area\u2019s pro-life movement, says she knew members of Black Americans for Life in passing but hadn\u2019t worked with them. They made first contact at a training session put on by the Christian foundation Mission Increase. \u201cMy development director and I saw a couple of African Americans in that group who we didn\u2019t really know, but we went over to them. I just said, \u2018Excuse me. You probably didn\u2019t notice, but I\u2019m white and you\u2019re black\u2026\u2019 \u201d She laughs at the joke. \u201cOddly enough\u2013and I had no clue about it at the moment\u2013but the gentleman we talked to just so happened to be Ivan Griffin, the president of Black Americans for Life in Kansas City.\u201d\nAfter walking the cigarette smoke-filled gauntlet of clients and security guards at the men\u2019s homeless shelter where Ivan Griffin works as a case manager, his small, undecorated office feels like an oasis. The 39-year-old activist agreed to be interviewed at Edwards\u2019s urging, but he\u2019s obviously wary. When I tell him I\u2019m reporting for a racial justice news site, he shoots back, \u201cSo you think we\u2019re committing a racial injustice?\u201d\nI ask the Kansas City native how he got involved with Black Americans for Life (\u201cBA4L\u201d for short, he says). He tells me how a former board member just walked up to him on the street. \u201cI was a little bit surprised, but you know, no big deal,\u201d says Griffin, who stands about 6-foot-3 and has the torso of a linebacker, but speaks in a near whisper. \u201cI agreed to show up at a meeting, became a member and, eventually, was elected chairman of the board.\u201d\nGriffin says that for years his 10-member group has wanted to start its own pregnancy center in downtown Kansas City. He even contacted Care Net, he says, for \u201cinformation on how to go about starting a pregnancy clinic.\u201d But his group was still unable to raise the capital. Perhaps that\u2019s why he was ready to help the suburban activists from Rachel House set up shop at 46th and Paseo. His participation is certainly crucial. After all, the new center sits in Congressional District 5, which just so happens to be the home of Emmanuel Cleaver, II, Kansas City\u2019s first-ever black mayor, its five-term Democratic congressman and the former chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus. These facts aren\u2019t lost on Griffin.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re talking about going into a minority community, you\u2019re going to have lots of people who are considered leaders who, because of their political affiliation or other reasons, are not supportive of our cause. They may be outspoken about that fact. What we didn\u2019t want to have was several leaders in the community speaking out against our efforts,\u201d says Griffin. \u201cSo we needed to find leaders in our community, mostly pastors, who were supportive and would welcome us.\u201d\nClearly, however, Griffin didn\u2019t seek welcome from the existing infrastructure of black and women\u2019s health organizations in the neighborhood.\nBetween January and February, I asked representatives of a range of well-established local organizations if they were consulted about Rachel House\u2019s arrival. The Black Health Care Coalition (BHCC), which has been working to eliminate health disparities in downtown Kansas City for more than 26 years, wasn\u2019t consulted. That\u2019s curious given that among its heavily marketed public events, the nonprofit throws at least three, large community baby showers a year. Griffin\u2019s group has even set up tables at the events. The same goes for leaders at the 30-year-old Mother and Child Health Care Coalition, a clearinghouse for all things maternal health in Kansas City\u2019s \u201curban core.\u201d Not even Sarah Gillooly, a former city council candidate and a current lobbyist for Planned Parenthood of Kansas knew about the move. Apparently it\u2019s the best-kept secret in women\u2019s health.\nSince Griffin\u2019s group bypassed existing providers in the city, I ask him to describe the ideal crisis pregnancy center for the black community he calls home. He says it would provide ultrasounds, counseling, and \u201cmaybe even some prenatal care. There would be parenting classes, support groups, and for women who had already received abortions, there would be post-abortive counseling.\u201d\n\u201cWould you offer contraception?\u201d I ask.\nAfter an awkward pause, I continue. \u201cWhy not?\u201d\n\u201cWell, we believe in abstinence until marriage.\u201d\n\u201cSo if a married woman were to come in seeking counseling, would you still have the same idea about contraception?\u201d\n\u201cThat isn\u2019t something I\u2019ve ever thought about because these centers are set up primarily to deal with single women.\u201d\nAccording to Guttmacher Institute research, more than 60 percent of abortions are obtained by women who already have one or more children. In other words, being unmarried doesn\u2019t equal \u201cnot having kids.\u201d\nI ask about how his center might deal with complex-but-real issues, like transgender health, sexual identity, survival sex and HIV infection. He says he can\u2019t provide an answer \u201cbecause the centers are designed for people who are having heterosexual sex.\u201d\nBut what Griffin really wants to talk about is fatherhood rights and the idea that abortion is ultimately a woman\u2019s choice.\n\u201cIt\u2019s absolutely absurd,\u201d he says. \u201cIf we\u2019re being honest with one another the real issue is whether or not there is a human life inside the womb. We actually agree that women do have the right to choose whatever they want to do with their own bodies. I think that we all also agree that murder is not OK. So what it really is all about is if there is an actual life inside that womb. There is. So this isn\u2019t about a woman\u2019s right to do whatever she wants with her body, because that\u2019s not your own body.\u201d\nAfter Griffin takes several cell phone calls, I ask him to name the biggest contradiction in the pro-choice argument. He brings it back to the men who have lost their rights after \u201cplanting their seed.\u201d \u201cHow do you just pretend that the man doesn\u2019t exist and he has no right? If there are three parties involved in the process why does only one have rights?\u201d\nWe\u2019re both exhausted, but I ask Griffin to apply his philosophy of ownership to incest and rape. He retorts, \u201cDid God breathe life into this being? That\u2019s what it comes down to.\u201d As I gather my coat Griffin cracks a rare smile. \u201cDid I convert you yet?\u201d\nSherry Payne is a wildcard on the Kansas City reproductive health scene. Born and raised in the easternmost (aka, the blackest) part of town, the 50-year-old had her first child at 16, a second at 17, then six more after she got married. Payne calls herself a product of crisis pregnancy centers like Rachel House.\nAs a teen she got free pregnancy testing and professional counseling from a Catholic center called Birthright International. In her 20s, she volunteered for the group, and sat on its board in her 30s. Fueled by what she describes as a traumatic childbirth experience with her first baby, Payne became a labor and delivery nurse. She got a job at the hospital where she had given birth, and there she observed how casual and subtle racism fueled decision-making. For example, she says, black babies were routinely tested for drugs without their mothers\u2019 knowledge. \u201cHere in my city, hospitals basically set their own criteria for whose babies they\u2019ll drug test and who they won\u2019t,\u201d she charges. In other cases she\u2019s seen how administrative delays in Medicaid enrollment land black and Latina women and their babies in the informal but insidious category of \u201chigh risk.\u201d\nWhat Payne observed illustrates the invisible bias and microaggressions women of color face in medical settings, and that too often becomes a deterrent to seeking routine care, including for sexual and reproductive health. This dynamic is grounded in the long, well-documented history of forcible, secret and unethical medical experimentation on the bodies of black women, men and children. And it\u2019s that legacy which \u201cMaafa 21\u201d and Care Net\u2019s billboard campaign sought to exploit.\nPayne\u2019s experience prompted her to transition out of nursing. She became a nurse educator and now she\u2019s in her final year of midwifery education, a passion since she had six of her eight children at home. She also started a nonprofit called Uzazi Village, to combat black infant mortality rates in her city. With her own funds, Payne opened Uzazi in a storefront on 36th and Troost Ave., the city\u2019s dividing line between poor and rich, black and white.\nThe deliberately homey, loft-like space has shiny wooden floors and African-inspired wall hangings. Here, Uzazi promotes natural, home-based childbirth. It also offers its clients free pregnancy testing and pregnancy confirmation for Medicaid eligibility; free doula and breastfeeding support; training for emerging doulas of color; STI/STD information and even support groups for LGBT youth. Payne doesn\u2019t use the phrase \u201creproductive justice,\u201d but Uzazi Village certainly embodies the concept.\nWhen I visit in January, I meet three women and a social worker from Rose Brooks Center, a residential shelter for women and children escaping life-threatening domestic violence. In her near-monotone voice, Payne asks them to detail the kinds of services they\u2019d like to receive from a \u201cpregnancy resource center\u201d like Rachel House. Ashley and Wiletta, whose last names I\u2019m not reporting out of concern for their safety, seemed thrilled that someone was asking them.\n\u201cThe biggest problem that I\u2019ve run into is finding housing for pregnant women who are ex-felons,\u201d says Wiletta, who is five months along with a daughter. \u201cI have nonviolent felonies from six years ago\u2013I was stealing out of Walmart when I was 18. I\u2019m 24 now. I used to go to places thinking I could plead my case. But there\u2019s no, \u2018Maybe we can work with her because she\u2019s pregnant.\u2019 At one place, they wouldn\u2019t even let me fill out the application. The lady was like, \u2018You\u2019re just gonna have to leave because we don\u2019t take any felonies or any misdemeanors. Now, can I have my pen back?\u2019 You would have thought I murdered somebody.\u201d\nAshley is also 24 years old; she has daughters ages 12 and 10, and she\u2019s seven months into her third pregnancy. She\u2019s having a boy and says she plans to get her tubes tied and practice abstinence afterwards. She came to Uzazi for the free maternity and baby clothes and returned for information about breastfeeding and a free doula. \u201cI\u2019m the kind of mother that they consider low-income,\u201d Ashely says. \u201cRight now my finances are slim-to-none. So I\u2019m looking for anything that can be of assistance and it needs to be free.\u201d\nHousing is also a challenge since Ashley was evicted in 2007. \u201cHaving an eviction is almost the same as having a felony,\u201d she says.\nShe also talks about how afraid she\u2019s been\u2013not of parenting, but of telling health providers about chaos in her life. \u201cIt\u2019s scary because you can\u2019t tell the people at the hospital the truth because the first thing they\u2019re gonna look at is, \u2018Well she\u2019s unstable. We can\u2019t let her leave with this newborn because she don\u2019t have nowhere to go.\u2019 \u2026 You can\u2019t open up. People keep these things hidden, or they go for adoption. So even if you fake it throughout your whole pregnancy, you still have to think, \u2018Well I\u2019m going to deliver soon. What am I gonna do?\u2019\u201d\nKaty, 44, is silent for most of our impromptu meeting. Women like her don\u2019t often come up in the abortion debate, although her circumstances have certainly made her \u201cvulnerable\u201d to it. Two years ago, the married, working mom had a surprise pregnancy, which she decided to maintain. She doesn\u2019t spell out the traumatic events that landed her and her children at a domestic violence shelter, nor does she talk about when or how she lost her job. I don\u2019t press her on it. What she makes clear, however, is that she\u2019s raising a 6-year-old and a 1-year-old alone\u2013and she\u2019s in no mood to talk about the rights and wrongs of abortion.\n\u201cMy concern is after you have the baby. He\u2019s 1 years old,\u201d she says, pointing to the little boy crawling under the table. \u201cSo where do my resources come in at? I know there\u2019s a million places for pregnant women. I\u2019m past that stage. I\u2019m no longer pregnant, ain\u2019t trying to get pregnant, and hope God is through with me and there won\u2019t be no more babies. But after you have the baby, where do you go? Who is gonna help me raise the two children that I do have?\u201d\nAfter discussing these kinds of hard, real material needs\u2013which have made them all \u201cat risk\u201d for abortion\u2013I ask the women how they\u2019d respond if someone at a crisis pregnancy center called the procedure black genocide.\n\u201cI\u2019d be like, \u2018Woman, I didn\u2019t come in here and ask you to preach to me. I have my own preacher and pastor!\u201d says Ashley. \u201cYou can either help me or you can\u2019t. If you can\u2019t help, goodbye.\u201d\nLater in the afternoon, two white women representing Liberty Women\u2019s Clinic, another suburban evangelical crisis pregnancy center, drop by Uzazi. They ask Sherry Payne what she thinks about them parking their mobile unit on the block. Payne asks them if they\u2019ve studied the needs of the community. They say no\u2013then ask her how one might do that. Payne points them to a \u201cCommunity Visioning Statement\u201d on her website, the product of a meeting she convened at the health department where she specifically asked black residents what maternal health should look like in their community. She\u2019s obviously frustrated by the intrusion.\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t want to run them out of town or tar and feather them, because I don\u2019t think that they\u2019re doing bad things to people,\u201d she says after the evangelists have left. \u201cYou can even argue that they have a very useful service. But I think it\u2019s a partial service. I [wonder] if the services they\u2019re providing in the community they\u2019ve picked out are going to be respectful to the women being served, or are they just pushing their own agenda and their own way?\u201d\nPayne illuminates the toxic paradox of anti-abortion fanaticism. In a big-little place like Kansas City, agnostic can be easily twisted into murderer, and tangible preventative tools such as contraceptives can become symbols of sin and damnation. But the rhetoric doesn\u2019t produce better outcomes for poor black women, or for the babies they have.\n\u201cReally I just want to take care of pregnant women,\u201d Payne says, sighing deeply. \u201cBut there are so many politics around it.\u201d\nReporting for this article was supported in part by the Groundswell Fund and the Investigative Fund of the Nation Institute.\nGovernment-Funded Crisis Pregnancy Centers Won't Hire Non-Christians",

I was nervous to see a new doctor at first, but I quickly came to like Dr. Burghardt (and the treats he gave me). He was really nice to my mom and made her feel comfortable and confident in the doctors recommendations and treatment plans. We will definitely be back!\nDr. Burghardt is a natural! He was so good with my high energy puppy and very attentive and responsive to all my questions. I appreciated him taking the time to listen, and it\u2019s always comforting to realize when a vet truly enjoys his job. We\u2019ll definitely be clients for life!\nMitts and Sammy\nHi I\u2019m Marty Horst, and I want to tell you a little bit about my experience at the wonderful animal hospital in Encinitas, Companion Pet Care. The hospital is now under new ownership and being led by Dr. Ted Burghardt. Dr. Ted has not only been my trusted veterinarian for many years now, but also has been a good friend. The staff is incredibly kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. They are happy to attend and answer any type of question, big or small. Dr. Ted has been a wonderful doctor for my beloved animals and I have always trusted his methods. Working with Dr. Ted and his team is always a great experience!\nI can\u2019t say enough about Dr. Ted.\nHe has gone above and beyond what most vets do. When I had a dog that couldn\u2019t travel he traveled to us. My current dog has had 2 surgeries for hip dysplasia performed by Dr. Ted.\nHe\u2019s pretty amazing. Other vets would tell you what they thought your pet needed and I would always walk away feeling uneasy. With Dr. Ted I\u2019ve never felt anything but complete trust that he knows what\u2019s best. He truly cares about your pets.\nThank you Dr. Ted for everything ,\nYour the best !!!",

The one-day festival will be the first of its kind in the area, which is special as it is close to where Cole grew up in Fayetteville.\nThis festival adds a new element to Cole&apos;s productivity recently. Exactly one week ago, on April 20, he released his newest project, KOD. Right out the gate, KOD broke Apple Music&apos;s record for the most album streams in the first 24 hours of its release, knocking Drake&apos;s Views from the top spot. The title track \"KOD\" also broke a U.S. Spotify record previously held by Taylor Swift for the biggest opening day. With stats like that, it looks like the projections that show the album ready to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart are correct.\nWhat&apos;s more, Cole has already promised a deluxe version of the album is on its way, with brand new tracks that didn&apos;t make the first cut. The rapper has also released two new videos: \"ATM\" and \"Kevin&apos;s Heart,\" the latter of which stars Kevin Hart in one of the greatest music video puns of all time.\nNewsVideosJ.

        "raw_content": "College celebrates another fantastic set of IBD results\nTwenty four students at Bridgwater College are celebrating the news that they have all passed the International Baccalaureate Diploma, while the College is celebrating the news that it has scored well above the world average.\nThe group of students, who has been studying the programme for two years, received their results a month ahead of A Level students, which means the majority of them can now confirm their university places.\nThe International Baccalaureate Diploma or IBD is a highly challenging course and means students are required to study six subjects, which usually include English, Maths, a Science, a Humanities subject, a Language and an Art subject, as well as a core of activity which include an Extended Essay and Creativity, Action and Service. Students achieve a maximum of 7 points per subject at Bridgwater College, the average total point score achieved was 32 out of a maximum of 45, compared to the IB World Standard of 29.83 points.\nFurthermore, 35% of the individual subject results were achieved at the highest grades of 6 and 7 (equivalent to A* or A at A level) compared with the World Standard of 27%.\nMegan Beech, a former pupil of Haygrove School, and Charlotte Bryan formerly of Queens College Taunton, each achieved an amazing 41 points, a result which puts them in the top 4% of students entering the IB Diploma examinations throughout the world. Both students achieved an impressive 94% grade A result in their Extended Essay on Magical Realism and The French Revolution respectively; this was particularly impressive given that Charlotte did not study History at GCSE.\nMegan said, Im really surprised by my points, but Im delighted I can now take up my place at Queen Marys in London to study English. Charlotte has a place to study French and Arabic at Manchester University and added, Im just relieved I havent slept properly for about a week! Its great that all the hard work has finally paid off.\nFriends Bonnie Welch and Aggie Morris scored 33 and 36 points respectively, and are taking up university places overseas, at Amsterdam University College. Bonnie, a former pupil of Heathfield Community School, and Aggie, former pupil of The Kings of Wessex Academy in Cheddar, will both study Liberal Arts and Sciences.\nLouise Rowley, Head of Access, Science & Humanities at Bridgwater College said: These are really outstanding results. I congratulate every student; the tremendous success achieved by this years group of students is testament to their hard work as well as tthe dynamic and inspirational teaching that they have received at Bridgwater College. We are really pleased that the continued success of the IB programme is leading to more students choosing this pathway. There is increasing recognition of the value of the qualification as a well-recognised alternative to A levels and in September we have 33 new students who will begin the Diploma.\nIBD Coordinator at the College Martyn Aldridge said: Our current first year group has just returned from a expedition to Morocco where they have worked on community projects, including the restoration of a water mill in a remote village high in the Atlas Mountains. A two day camel trek into the Sahara Desert was a highlight of an exciting trip. When they return to Bridgwater College in September they will have a hard act to follow if they are to achieve such outstanding results as this years cohort but Im sure that they can rise to this challenge.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Blog / City of Frederick / Invocation at Beginning of Mayor and Board of Aldermen Meetings\nJanuary 24, 2006 /0 Comments/in City of Frederick /by Admin\nTo: Mayor Jeff Holtzinger\nRe: Invocation at Beginning of Mayor and Board of Aldermen Meetings\nThe invocation I offered at the beginning of the BOA meeting on January 19th has evoked some lively responses, especially from bloggers. Some people state that they are offended that I, as a City Alderman, would pray; that I would pray in the name of Jesus Christ; and some complain that my prayer was a violation of the Establishment Clause of the Constitution. While the criticisms are being directed at me, the pressure is being put on you to do something to change what these few complainers find offensive. As shown below, neither your acts nor mine were in violation of the Constitution. In addition, neither of us had any intention to offend, yet offense was taken by people who have the erroneous expectation that government officials should not make any reference to religion or God in their statements and actions. This notion is false, and it should not become the policy that governs what we say and do. I regret that offense was taken at my prayer, but no apology is in order. For the reasons stated below, I believe it is proper and good for the City to continue having a minute or two at the beginning of each legislative session to invite individuals from the city, including pastors, to pray.\n1. The invocation was not a violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. While the Supreme Court has ruled that the Establishment Clause prohibits public schools from conducting prayers (e.g., Lee v. Weisman, 505 U.S. 577 (1992)[graduation services] and Santa Fe Independent School Dist. v. Doe, 530 U.S. 290 (2000) [football game]), a different principle and rationale applies to prayers at the beginning of legislative sessions, which are not a violation of the Establishment Clause. Marsh v. Chambers, 463 U.S. 783 (1983). The United States Congress has opened sessions with prayers for 200 years. The Supreme Court has clearly held that the offering of these prayers, regardless of the particular religious content of the individual prayers, does not constitute the government's establishment of a religion. The continued applicability of Marsh was just confirmed by the Supreme Court in Van Orden v. Perry; 545 U.S. ____ (2005) [Slip Opinion, p.8] where Chief Justice Rehnquist wrote:\nRecognition of the role of God in our Nation's heritage has also been reflected in our decisions. We have acknowledged, for example, that \u201creligion has been closely identified with our history and government,\u201d School Dist. of Abington Township v. Schempp, 374 U.S., at 212, and that \u201c[t]he history of man is inseparable from the history of religion,\u201d Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S 421, 434 (1962). This recognition has led us to hold that the Establishment Clause permits a state legislature to open its daily sessions with a prayer by a chaplain paid by the State. Marsh v. Chambers, 463 U.S., at 792. Such a practice, we thought, was \u201cdeeply embedded in the history and tradition of this country.\u201d Id., at 786.\n2. While having prayers at the beginning of a legislative session does not necessarily violate the Establishment Clause, how the governmental body organizes, directs or dictates such prayers could violate the Establishment Clause. For example, if only the adherents of one particular religion were allowed to pray, or if the City dictated what could or could not be said in a prayer\u2013these actions would violate the Establishment Clause. Some have suggested that an \u201cequal opportunity\u201d rationale would have to be applied. I understand why one might want to apply this rationale, however, the Court does not evaluate Establishment Clause issues that way, rather the Court has annunciated a non-exclusionary rationale. In Good News Club v. Milford Central School, 533 U.S. 98 (2001), the Supreme Court held that a public school could not exclude religious clubs from using school facilities after school if the school makes the facilities available to other clubs. This case is an important case because it explains that the Establishment Clause does not mandate that public schools exclude religious discourse; rather the Establishment Clause prohibits public schools from endorsing any one religion.\n3. In addition, the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment, protects a legislator's right and a citizen's right to pray or to say something that promotes a religion or a religious belief. This applies whether religion is overtly mentioned or whether it is merely an unspoken basis for what one says. Furthermore, what one legislator says in prayer or otherwise is not necessarily an act of the government; one legislator's words is different from the passage of a law. Just as the Free Exercise Clause protects the right of a student to pray in public school (see e.g., ____________[I think it is the Lee v. Weisman case], so does it protect the right of an Alderman to pray. If, as an Alderman, I chose to invoke God's blessings and pray in making comments about a piece of legislation, the First Amendment protects my right to do this. I have no plans to do this as a part of my Aldermanic duties, but there is no question that I have the constitutional right to do so.\n4. At this point, neither the Mayor nor the Board of Aldermen, nor any of us as individuals has violated the Establishment Clause. But a policy should be established so that it is not violated in the future. There are several alternatives that would satisfy Establishment Clause requirements:\na. Never have prayers again.\nb. Have a regular moment of silence in which people can pray or meditate.\nc. Have a paid chaplain to pray at the beginning of each meeting.\nd. Establish a policy of inviting individuals from different religions and belief systems to offer an invocation or words of inspiration at the beginning of BOA meetings.\ne. Perhaps there are other options, too.\nAt this point, since you, as the Mayor, have introduced the issue by calling for an invocation at the first official meeting of the Board, you will need to decide the course to take in the future. My suggestion would be to establish some policy of inviting people in the community from different religions and belief systems to offer words of inspiration or prayers at the beginning of Board meetings (at some regularity). If diversity has any value in our community, it must include the diverse religious and philosophical views of our citizens, most of whom do believe in a God. Those who would deny this, or who would like to pretend it does not exist, or who would like to silence the public expression of the religious and philosophical underpinnings of the citizens' views are not accepting the facts of life. The First Amendment's Establishment Clause has not yet been twisted and changed to mean \u201cFreedom From Religion.\u201d As the City invites citizens from a variety of religious and philosophical backgrounds to give invocations, we can truly recognize the rich diversity of our citizenry. We should not be offended at our religious differences. In fact, such a practice of showcasing our religious and philosophical diversity can help us to better understand and appreciate one another.\n5. With regard to any offensiveness that one may have found in my prayer on January 19th, clearly no offense was intended. You asked me to offer an invocation. I was honored and happy to do so. My prayer was born of my beliefs and my convictions. I began by addressing my \u201cFather in Heaven,\u201d and I closed \u201cin the name of Jesus Christ.\u201d Obviously you did not dictate how and to whom I should pray. To some my prayer was too long, although I suspect it was less than two minutes in length. It consisted primarily of expressing gratitude for blessings and requesting God's help in addressing our city issues. Some would counsel that the City prohibit all future prayers because of the opposition or offense that such prayers would cause to a few people. I disagree with this rationale. I did not run for office to establish my religious views as the law in Frederick City. But my religious convictions are the foundation of who I am and what I am. I do not seek to compel or coerce others to believe like I do, but neither am I ashamed of my beliefs. I, like Benjamin Franklin, at the Constitutional Convention in 1787, believe that invoking God's help is beneficial to the operation of a legislative body. Whether or not the forces of political correctness are sufficiently strong to eliminate future prayers in City meetings, I do not know, but I favor their continuation.\n6. As you know I never suggested or asked that you begin the BOA meeting with a payer. I had no plans to bring up this issue. I am aware that it was a point of contention four years ago, at the beginning of Mayor Dougherty's administration. But now that the issue has arisen, I do not feel to apologize for what happened or for what I said. What I did was motivated by goodness and virtue. Neither do I have any prejudices or antipathy for those who chose to take offense at my words. I will continue to do my best to make wise decisions for the City with prejudice for none, but with impartiality for all. I know that I have genuine concern and appreciation for my fellow citizens. One who's leadership philosophy is driven by the determination to not offend those who seek to be offended are destined to find frustration because it is impossible to prevent others from taking offense.\nNow that the prayer issue has arisen, I believe it would be a mistake to say that you were wrong to do it in the first place. Your instincts were right and good. If you shrink from an important issue that others have initiated, I believe you could diminish yourself.\nTolerance for Diverse Religious Views PRWSA \u2014 proposed revisions",

The date for the UK\u2019s exit from the EU is the 29 March 2019, meaning up until this date the UK will legally need to comply with all EU legislation including the EU FMD.\n\u201cThe Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has recently released guidance which outlines an implementation period between 30 March 2019 and 31 December 2020, during which time the UK pharmaceutical industry would continue to meet all EU FMD requirements while the UK authorities work to develop a system that will work alongside the EU\u2019s.\u201d\nWhat are the implications of a \u2018no-deal\u2019 Brexit?\nTedham: \u201cWhile the UK will still have its own Medicines Verification Systems \u2013 the UKMVS \u2013 it would also need continued access to the European Medicines Verification System (EMVS) to allow the FMD legislation to be fully effective. In the event of a \u2018no-deal\u2019 Brexit this is not guaranteed.\n\u201cThe logistics of how this will work are not yet fully understood. The political fallout of a hard Brexit could potentially affect patient safety due to reduced access to vital medicines and delays in accessing critical information.\u201d\nWhat are companies doing to ensure operations are unaffected by Brexit?\nTedham: \u201cMany UK-based companies have opted to create contingency plans, establishing a presence in the EU or forming partnerships with third parties to ensure sufficient resource for additional release testing requirements. At Wasdell, we are building a new facility in Dundalk, Ireland to ensure business continuity for our customers. We have also started to develop bespoke alterations to supply chains to ensure minimal impact, regardless of the outcome of Brexit negotiations.\u201d",

Lynne began by showing various hangings and other items she has created which was very inspiring. After stretching hessian on a frame - which was ours to keep along with the hooking and prodding tools provided - she clearly explained the key techniques. We were then able to try for ourselves and use different and unexpected materials including plastic bags! During the day there was plenty of tasty food and drink provided. Highly recommended.\nalison humphries - 2 years ago - #5044\nHad a fun day as a complete beginner learning the techniques of rag-rugging and wall hangings. Learning the use of mixing fabrics and plastics along with wire and all sorts of different embellishments as we went along. I wish I'd had the foresight to work one corner to make a sampler so that I can keep and refer back to techniques we learned whereas now I have the image in my head that I want to do, I may have to restart some of it.

        "raw_content": "Tax credits encourage the preservation and continued use of historic buildings by offering economic incentives for their rehabilitation. The Louisiana Division of Historic Preservation administers two historic rehabilitation tax credit programs for income-producing buildings: the Federal 20% Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Program and the 20% State Commercial Tax Credit Program.\nThese programs have helped preserve many historic buildings throughout Louisiana. They not only offer an incentive to preserve historic buildings, but also act as a major force in economic development. The use of tax credits encourages private sector rehabilitation of historic buildings and is one of the most successful and cost effective community revitalization programs. These programs generate jobs and create commercial, residential, and industrial spaces within historic buildings.\nA tax credit is a direct, dollar for dollar, reduction in the amount of money a taxpayer must pay in taxes for a given year. For example, if a taxpayer owes $5,000 in taxes to the Internal Revenue Service or Department of Revenue, but has a $3,000 credit, he only pays $2,000. Thus he pockets the $3,000 he would otherwise have to pay in taxes. A credit is much better than a deduction which merely reduces a taxpayer\u2019s income and puts him in a lower tax bracket.\nTime and time again, we hear that these programs make the numbers work for development projects. Louisiana is consistently one of the top ten performing states in the nation, both for the number of historic rehabilitation projects completed and dollars leveraged. To date, historic rehabilitation tax credits have leveraged more than $3.7 billion in investment in historic properties in Louisiana alone.\nBoth of these optional, yet restrictive programs listed below are administered by the Louisiana Division of Historic Preservation. Each program may be used independently, but there are certain instances where both programs may be used together, sometimes referred to as twinning or stacking.\nA 20% federal income tax credit is available for the rehabilitation of historic, income-producing buildings that are determined by the National Park Service to be \"certified historic structures.\" The Division of Historic Preservation and the National Park Service review projects to ensure their compliance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. The Internal Revenue Service defines qualified rehabilitation expenditures on which the credit may be taken.\nState Commercial Tax Credit Program\nA 20% state income tax credit is available for the rehabilitation of historic, income-producing buildings that are determined by the Division of Historic Preservation to be \"certified historic structures.\" The Division of Historic Preservation reviews projects to ensure their compliance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. The Louisiana Department of Revenue defines qualified rehabilitation expenditures on which the credit may be taken.\nTax Incentives Map\nUtilize the map below to determine if a building is located within a National Register Historic District, is individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and/or is located within a Cultural District. Buildings located within these areas may be eligible for historic rehabilitation tax incentives.\nHistoric rehabilitation projects located within designated Federal Opportunity Zones may be eligible for additional economic incentives. For more information on Opportunity Zones, please visit Louisiana Economic Development.",

        "raw_content": "Whether you want your amalgam fillings removed or need a hole fixed, white fillings are standard at our Edinburgh Dental Practice.\nRemoving Amalgam from the Mouth\nMercury is in the world around us and although it has been linked to some serious health conditions such as Alzheimer\u2019s disease, multiple sclerosis, kidney and brain damage, in general terms it has been deemed safe in low doses. Despite this, it would seem sensible not to have it if possible. Visually, reactions are commonly seen in the mouth where these fillings lie directly adjacent to cheeks and gums, therefore in some instances it is wise to change an amalgam for a white filling in order to relax the immune system and reduce the inflammatory cells.\nHow are people exposed to mercury?\nMercury exists in various forms, and people are exposed to each in different ways. The most common way people in the U.K. are exposed to mercury is by eating fish containing methylmercury. Dental fillings come under a heading of metallic elemental mercury, which will be covered below.\nExposures to Methylmercury\nMethylmercury, a highly toxic organic compound, is the form of mercury people in the U.K. encounter most frequently. Almost all people in the world have at least trace amounts of methylmercury in their bodies, reflecting its prevalence in the environment. However, most people have mercury levels in their bodies below the level associated with possible health effects.\nNearly all methylmercury exposures in the U.K. occur through eating fish and shellfish that contain higher levels of methylmercury.\nHow Does Methylmercury Get into the Fish and Shellfish?\nMercury gets into the air from a number of sources. Once in the air, mercury eventually settles into bodies of water like lakes and streams, or onto land, where it can be washed into water. Microorganisms in waterbodies can change it into methylmercury, where it builds up in fish and shellfish.\nExposures to metallic elemental mercury\nDental fillings: Mercury is used in dentistry in dental amalgam, also known as \u201csilver filling\u201d. Dental amalgam is a direct filling material used in restoring teeth. It is made up of approximately 40-50% mercury, 25% silver, and 25-35% a mixture of copper, zinc and tin. Over time there is slow corrosion causing a mild breakdown of the metal. The positives are that the metal is poisonous to the bacteria and that the Dental body have deemed them safe to use and still remains the choice of filling for back teeth under the NHS. Despite these assurances, in this day and age the material would never be considered if it came to the market in the present day and it would seem sensible to assume that no level of mercury is safe for human consumption.\nAmalgam and Mercury Removal\nWhite filling replacements have become standard practice when removing old amalgam sliver and black fillings outside the NHS. The techniques used must be undertaken under strict conditions to ensure successful longterm outcomes and predictability. Primarily here at 47 Dublin Street, we use a sealed dam to ensure that all product is kept away from the throat and airway. Copious amounts of water spray also help to cool the amalgam and reduce/eliminate any vapours produced.\nThere Are Two Types of White Filling\n1. Plastic Composite Resins\nA putty material, which is set with a light to make it hard. The putty is constructed using small glass beads trapped within an acrylic resin matrix. The outcome is highly aesthetic and their durability is mid-term (5-8 years on average), depending on the size of the filling and how much work it is doing.\n2. Glass Ceramic Inserts\nMore durable white fillings can be constructed using glass ceramic, which are glued into the teeth to mimic the enamel coating of the original tooth-structure. These fillings are stronger and therefore have a long-term durability (10-14 years on average). The glass ceramic inserts can be further subdivided into Direct and In-direct methods of placement.\nDirect Glass Ceramic Fillings\nCerana- Preformed studs of ceramic will fit into refined cavity shapes to make the white filling stronger and longer lasting.\nIndirect Glass Ceramic Fillings\nPorcelain Inlays and Onlays- Handmade porcelain fillings made to fit specific shapes with the aim of providing a strong and durable white filling. These are made for each individual tooth in a laboratory using a furnace to sinter the glass into precise shapes.",

And that\u2019s a good thing. Dreamers make the impossible possible. In the words of Robert F. Kennedy, non-dreamers say \u201cwhy,\u201d but \u201cI dream of things that never were, and ask why not?\u201d\nAnd of course there is the modern incarnation of the word, the so-called \u201cDREAMers\u201d\u2014the 800,000 or so young migrants caught in legal limbo by the machinations of President Trump, Congress, and the immigration code.\nNow it seems Connecticut has its owner dreamer in the form of a 68-year-old wise man who until recently ran the regional chamber of commerce and now wants to mount an independent campaign for governor. Oz Griebel, the \u00e9minence grise of the state\u2019s business community, made it official earlier this month when he announced his candidacy in a news conference at the Capitol.\nAs if to emphasize the unconventional nature of his candidacy, Griebel, who failed in a bid for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 2010, stepped up to the microphone with his running mate, erstwhile Democrat Monte Frank of Newtown, a municipal attorney and a litigator at one of the largest law firms in the state \u2014 and past president of both the Connecticut and the New England bar associations.\nOf particular interest to Second Amendment aficionados and the more radical taking-away-our-guns conspiracy nuts, Frank has also been active in his town\u2019s recovery from the Sandy Hook massacre and is the legal adviser to the Newtown Action Alliance, which has advocated for stronger gun control in the aftermath of the worst school shooting in U.S. history. This has made Frank the object of scurrilous attacks from the paranoid basket of deplorables otherwise known as the Sandy Hook hoaxers. Frank officially has my sympathies. Now I want to vote for the poor guy just to spite those vile bloodbath deniers.\nGriebel has solid business creds, having been the boss for 16 years of the MetroHartford Alliance, which represents more than 1,000 businesses, municipalities and organizations \u2014 or as the alliance calls them, \u201cinvestors.\u201d In addition, before taking over the alliance, Griebel managed the Connecticut operations of BankBoston.\nAnd you can be sure that Griebel has cultivated and built relationships not only with members of the business community but with key power brokers in the Capitol and across the state. That would give him a leg up over other outsider types who think they can walk into the legislative office building and tell everyone what to do, as they often did while running the show in the business world, and as \u201coutsider\u201d Tom Foley tried to do not long ago.\nGriebel and Frank will have obvious appeal among those who, like me, cannot bring themselves to identify with either party. In announcing his candidacy, Griebel said, \u201cWe\u2019re going to make history.\u201d That would be true only in the sense that he would be the first independent candidate elected U.S. senator or governor in Connecticut who has never run successfully for statewide office before.\nSome have questioned whether Griebel would have the wherewithal to gather enough signatures to get on the ballot as an unaffiliated candidate. But getting 7,500 eligible voters to sign a petition isn\u2019t a monumentally difficult task if you\u2019re well organized and have a core group of dedicated supporters.\nI know. Jonathan Pelto, who tried and failed to petition on as a gubernatorial candidate in 2014, described the process as \u201cHerculean.\u201d But by his own admission, Pelto and his team suffered from \u201corganizational\u201d problems and simply \u201cdropped the ball.\u201d\nDon\u2019t bet on that happening to the managerially savvy Griebel. He and Frank are also eschewing the state\u2019s public financing program and so will not have to clear any early bureaucratic hurdles to qualify for taxpayer funding.\nThe real question isn\u2019t whether Griebel can qualify to be on the ballot and raise enough money to mount a credible campaign; it\u2019s whether he can actually win. There the deck is stacked against him. I think he would be a capable governor who would be pro-business, while still maintaining a healthy skepticism of that community, controlling the costs of the post-employment benefits for retired state employees and maintaining essential services for Connecticut\u2019s most vulnerable residents.\n\u201cI think the climate right now in Connecticut is such that a really attractive independent candidate who has solutions to our state\u2019s economic woes and our finances ... could actually pull a lot of votes,\u201d Gary Rose, a longtime professor of political science at Sacred Heart University, told The Courant.\nBut unless you\u2019re a larger-than-life figure like Lowell Weicker or Joe Lieberman, it\u2019s mighty tough to make a go of it as an independent candidate for governor. Americans in general \u2014 and Connecticut voters in particular \u2014 talk a good game about electing outsider independents but when push comes to shove, we mostly retreat to our little partisan corners.\nThat\u2019s too bad because so far I haven\u2019t been terribly impressed with any of the dozen or so announced or presumed candidates from the two parties.\nI agree that Griebel is an attractive candidate on a bipartisan ticket who might be able to thread the needle of creating an atmosphere that says Connecticut is open for business, while maintaining the left-of-center progressive values our voters seem to crave. Our neighbors in Massachusetts have managed to do just that. Is it really out of the question that we can, too? Or am I just another dreamer?\nTags: Oz Griebel, Lowell P.

Source: Info Wars\nPresident Trump has ordered that 1,000 Marines be stationed in Florida. The Marines drawn from two U.S. Navy warships are expected to help in relief efforts after the devastation of Hurricane Irma.\nThe hurricane has caused major damage in the state with high winds, massive floods and tidal surges blamed for much of the destruction seen so far. According to the U.S. Department of Defense, the Marines were assigned to the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit and the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing.\nThe 1,000 Marines are now all assigned to the USS Iwo Jima and the USS Kearsarge. They are expected to offer water purification systems for the affected residents in the state as well as air and surface evacuations and heavy lift capacity to clear any wreckage or debris that may need to be cleared.\nThe Marines will also:\n-Do reconnaissance and damage assessment\n-Help with the distribution of medical personnel\n-Deliver storage and distribution solutions in the devastated areas\nThese Marines are trained for these types of situations. Source: Breitbart\nThe Marine Expeditionary Unit is trained for this sort of situation. This has been confirmed by a statement released by Lt. Colonel Christopher Timothy, an executive officer within the unit. The Lieutenant also added that the team will work with Navy partners to ensure that all the people who need help are assisted.\nThe warships will have six Super Stallions, five Ospreys and also the Huey helicopters ready for deployment if needed. They have already docked along Florida\u2019s coast and will soon be joined by three others in order to help in the humanitarian effort.\nA report on Breitbart News noted that the President has already ordered the USS Abraham Lincoln, a U.S. aircraft carrier, to go to Florida as part of a joint effort to help address the catastrophic aftermath of the Hurricane.\nThe units have already faced a similar situation with the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. Source: Blunt Force Truth\nOther ships include the transport ship USS New York as well as the destroyer USS Farragut. The report also indicated that there are other additional units drawn from the Alabama and the Florida Marine Corps Reserve that are standing by ready for deployment.\nAccording to Lt. Gen. Rex McMillan who is the commander of the Marine Forces Reserve, these units are averse with the local landscape and have a strong motivation to help their communities that have been ravaged by the hurricane.\nThe units have already faced a similar situation after being involved in the rescue and recon operations in Houston in the wake of Hurricane Harvey. It is estimated that the units saved at least 1,200 people in Houston. They also delivered a substantive amount of food and additional supplies to help the city get back on its feet. The units have also been praised for providing additional support to the U.S. Coast Guard and playing a major part in the relief efforts in Houston. They are expected to do the same in Florida.",

        "raw_content": "California\u2019s teen voter pre-registration\u2026\nCalifornia\u2019s teen voter pre-registration builds momentum heading into midterm election\nStudents register to vote outside Rancho Cucamonga City Hall during a rally against gun violence on Friday, April 20, 2018 in Rancho Cucamonga. Students from Los Osos, Rancho Cucamonga, and Etiwanda high schools participated in a walkout and marched from Central Park to Rancho Cucamonga City Hall that coincided with the anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting and to protest against gun violence. (Stan Lim, Inland Valley Daily Bulletin/SCNG)\nBy Sandra Emerson |\nYoung people typically don\u2019t vote much, but advocacy groups hope a bump in pre-registration among teenagers will buck that trend on Nov. 6.\nTwo years ago, California began letting people ages 16 and 17 pre-register to vote, making it possible for them to cast ballots the day they turn 18.\nThis year, for a variety of reasons, that program gained traction.\nTens of thousands of California high schoolers pre-registered at rallies held in support of students killed in a mass shooting on Valentines Day in Florida, and new data shows they kept signing up even after the news cycle changed.\nIn a recent six-month period, voter pre-registration among 16 and 17-year-olds in California more than doubled, from 100,000 in April more than 209,500 by the end of September, according to the Secretary of State\u2019s office.\nSome of that occurred earlier this year when the Yolo County Elections Department held educational forums for teens where local public officials talked about the work they and elected officials performed. Teens were reported to have registered in droves following the seminars.\nEarlier this week, Yolo County Registrar of Voters Jesse Salinas indicated that there was increased voter registration by college-age individuals at UC Davis. He indicated that numbers were showing an increase over the previous, 2016, election.\nNow, more than half of those pre-registrants will be eligible to vote in the Nov. 6 midterm.\nThe pre-voting age crowd, for now, accounts for just a fraction of the state\u2019s 19 million registered voters. But if they turn out once they\u2019re of age, and if they vote based on registration, they could be helpful for blue-leaning candidates and causes. About 47 percent of the pre-voters are registered with No Party Preference, while 34 percent are Democrat and 9.5 percent Republican.\nThough the numbers of pre-registrants are rising, they still represent a sliver of those who could sign up. Roughly 10 percent of the state\u2019s 16 and 17-year-olds are pre-registered, according to Laura Brill, a Los Angeles attorney and a former law clerk to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg who founded The Civics Center, which promotes youth interest in politics and public life.\nIt\u2019s unclear if they\u2019ll turn up on Nov. 6. If they don\u2019t, they won\u2019t be much different from voters of other ages. About 37.5 percent of all registered voters cast a ballot in California in the June primary. And in mid-term general elections, national turnout hasn\u2019t cracked 50 percent since 1914.\nBut young people, traditionally, have been even more reluctant than others to cast ballots. In the 2014 general election, Brill noted that less than 10 percent of people ages 18 to 24 voted in California.\n\u201cPeople think of Californians as being very progressive, and we do have laws that encourage people to vote,\u201d Brill said. \u201cBut at the same time, there\u2019s this very low turnout, especially for young people.\u201d\nBrill suggests that the rising number of pre-registrants could signal the start of a cycle of young voter engagement. \u201cThey\u2019ll have communities who hopefully motivate one another to actually show up to the polls.\u201d\nBrill said the numbers are low, for now, because there\u2019s not much awareness about the program and many schools don\u2019t have the resources to implement pre-registration.\nIn 2014, Gov. Jerry Brown signed SB-113 by Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson, D-Santa Barbara, which allowed voter pre-registration beginning at 16 years old once the statewide voter registration database, VoteCal, was certified. That certification came in September 2016, but pre-registration was initially only offered through paper forms.\nIn April 2017, Secretary of State Alex Padilla launched online pre-registration through RegisterToVote.ca.gov.\n\u201cIt provides a framework for people to do it, but it doesn\u2019t provide its own mechanism to actually make preregistration and voter registration happen,\u201d Brill said.\nCalifornia is one of 14 states that allow pre-registration. And while the numbers to date are low, the state is well ahead of where many others were at this stage of their pre-registration programs, according to Marcia Godwin, a professor of public administration at the University of La Verne.\n\u201cThe few studies on voter pre-registration show that participation depends on outreach efforts and when there are critical elections,\u201d Godwin said, via email. \u201cParticipation is usually much higher going into presidential elections.\u201d\nIt appears that states that allow voter pre-registration have slightly higher turnout rates, Godwin said, pointing to a study of Florida\u2019s program by Professors John Holbein and D. Sunshine Hillygus.\nThe research also suggests young people who vote also might become more active citizens in other ways.\n\u201cThe turnout is lower for younger residents, but those who do participate feel that their views are being heard for the first time and they are more likely to get involved in other civic activities,\u201d Godwin said.\nIn addition to the Florida study, which focused on the effect of pre-registration from 2000-12 \u2014 before the Feb. 14 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida that led to nationwide student protests \u2014 Holbein said they did a nationwide analysis that looked for changes in voter turnout before and after preregistration laws came into effect. They compared those changes to changes in turnout over the same time period in states that did not have preregistration.\nThey found that pre-registration increased turnout among young people by about 3-6 percentage points, which was about the same as the effect found in Florida, Holbein said, via email.\n\u201cThis is a considerable effect considering that young people nationwide vote at rates much lower than older people. In Midterms, the turnout of young people ages 18-29 hovers around 20 percent,\u201d Holbein said. \u201cIn Presidential elections, the numbers aren\u2019t much better \u2014 youth turnout is only around 30-40 percent. There was some evidence that pre-registration brought in people to the electorate who wouldn\u2019t have registered/voted otherwise.\u201d\nAlex Farrington, who runs Our Lives, Our Vote, a national group aimed at boosting youth registration, believes pre-registered students are extremely likely to show up at the polls.\n\u201cOne of the main things about it is that it creates a voter for life,\u201d Farrington said.\nThe program was launched by gun control advocates and liberal organizations in response to the walk-outs, marches and demonstrations that followed the Parkland shooting. It is active in 10 states, including California, where candidates deemed to be aligned with the National Rifle Association appear on the ballot.\n\u201cThese students are engaged,\u201d Farrington said of pre-registrants.\n\u201cThey\u2019re asking really critical questions. They want to know more, and they\u2019re not waiting for someone to hand them information.\u201d",

We help people understand their options and how the Courts work\" \u2013 Danny Glover\nSee More: What is a Limited Driving Privilege\nHow do Lawyers Help?\nAttorneys experienced in handling DWI cases in North Carolina understand how overwhelming the system can be for people. That is especially true for client whom have had little or no prior experience dealing with the Courts.\n\"We like to sit down with people, review the available paperwork, and go through options\" \u2013 Danny Glover\nThe First Thing Lawyers do is Investigate\nWe investigate the background of a case. Prior to providing guidance or advice, we need to understand what happened, who was involved, and figure out what law or laws may be involved.\nOnce that process is complete, we begin explaining the best-case and worst-case scenarios.\nOver the years we have found that a large part of a client\u2019s anxiety over a case is just not knowing. . .not knowing what their options are, not knowing what can happen, not knowing whether a case could result in losing your license or job.\nWhile it is not unusual for people nowadays to do some research online or by talking to friends and family, that can make things seem even worse.\nAlthough often well-intended, the information gathered is incomplete and in some instances, just flat-out wrong.\nPut simply, lawyers provide guidance based on their training, experience, and understanding of a somewhat court system.\nWhat Does it Cost to Call Us?\nThe answer may surprise you: NOTHING.\nFor cases involving Driving While Impaired, which people often refer to as DWI or DUI, we do not charge for the initial consultation.\n\"You won\u2019t get a bill from us unless you say you want help\" \u2013 Danny Glover\nThere isn\u2019t a clock ticking. Our initial consultation costs you nothing. What we talk about is also private and held in the strictest confidence. That\u2019s what it means to be Confidential.\nIt is also helpful to understand that even when clients decide to retain our legal services, we normally charge a fixed amount for a case. We call that a flat rate.\nModified Transcript of \u201cWhat Happens When You Get a DWI\u201d for the Hearing Impaired\nIn North Carolina, DWI is driving while impaired and there\u2019s no real practical difference between a DWI and a DUI in North Carolina. DWI stands for driving a vehicle whether it be a car, a truck, a lawnmower, a bicycle on a highway or public vehicular area with either a blood alcohol level of 0.08 or higher, or you\u2019re just drunk regardless of your BAC.\nDWI has several different components to it. The first is the state\u2019s ability to identify you beyond a reasonable doubt as the driver or operator of the vehicle. Sometimes, DWIs occur in scenarios where you are not followed down the highway for two miles by the state trooper. Oftentimes, a state has problems identifying you as the driver of the vehicle that\u2019s found.\nThen the officer has to have reasonable suspicion that you are driving while impaired or probable cause that you have committed a crime before you can stop your vehicle.\nThen he has to have probable cause to arrest you for DWI. That includes issues such as field sobriety testing or portable breath test known as chemical screening tests. Then he has to perform all of the tests correctly. I am a certified administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Standardized Field Sobriety Tests. Those are not pass/fail test. You don\u2019t do good or bad. They are designed to be instructed a certain way, administered a certain way. They are looking for a certain number of clues that have to be interpreted a certain way.\nIf you\u2019re convicted in DWI behind North Carolina, you do not automatically to jail, although in North Carolina, you can go to jail on even a first offense. Now, there is mandatory jail time in North Carolina if the judge finds the presence of at least one grossly aggravating factor. Now there are several of those. One is a prior DWI conviction in past seven years either in North Carolina or in the other state in the country. The second would be having a child under the age of 18 in the car. If there is a death or serious vital injury involved in a DWI wreck, that can be a grossly aggravating factor. If you\u2019re driving on a revoked license and the license was previously revoked because of another DWI, that can be a grossly aggravating factor. Those take with them mandatory jail time, but no, you don\u2019t automatically go unless one of those is present.\nWhat Happens When You Get a DWI | Outer Banks, North Carolina Drunk Driving Defense Lawyer",

        "raw_content": "Home/Arts & Entertainment/Film & TV/Jay and the Americans Perform February 15 in Westhampton Beach\nArts & EntertainmentFilm & TV\nJay and the Americans Perform February 15 in Westhampton Beach\nBrendan J. O'Reilly February 8, 2015\nIt was more than 50 years ago when Jay and the Americans, who are coming to Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center on Sunday, February 15, entered the popular music scene, but the singers are still as enthusiastic about performing.\nThese days, the group does about 50 shows each year. \u201cWe would do a hundred if we had the opportunity, because we\u2019re crazy and we love what we do,\u201d says Sandy Yaguda, an original American who is better known as Sandy Deanne.\nDeanne says the only reason they have stage names is because back when they got their start, there was no such thing as an unlisted phone number. \u201cOur parents used to get calls in the middle of the night with girls giggling and hanging up,\u201d he recalls. His father said he would kill him if his mother was woken up one more time.\nSo Yaguda became Deanne, Howard Kirschenbaum became Howie Kane, Martin Kupersmith became Marty Sanders, and Kenneth Rosenberg became Kenny Vance.\n\u201cWhen we started out were we kids and had no intention of doing anything other than making a record,\u201d Deanne says. \u201cThree years later, it was a career.\nToday, three of the four original Americans are together. \u201cThe only missing American is Kenny Vance who has his own career\u2014and we\u2019re very happy he has his own career,\u201d Deanne says. Vance is now the frontman of neo doo wop group Kenny Vance and the Planotones, which, like Jay and the Americans, has performed many times for enthusiastic Long Island crowds.\nThere have been three Jays in the group\u2019s history. The original Jay was Jay Traynor, who helped give them their breakout hit in 1962, \u201cShe Cried.\u201d He eventually went solo and was replaced by David Blatt, who had been using the stage name Dave Black. To fit the bill, he changed the name to Jay Black. With Black, the group recorded a string of hits including \u201cThis Magic Moment\u201d and \u201cCara Mia\u201d before disbanding in 1974.\nMore than 30 years later, a new lineup emerged.\nIn 2006 Deanne successfully bid $100,000 to get back the name Jay and the Americans, which was held by Black. A bidder from Chicago had offered more, but withdrew his bid. Deanne wanted to find out who and why. He got in touch with the bidder, John \u201cJay\u201d Reincke, who explained that he had been performing Jay and the Americans songs for 30 years as a cover artist. But the same year that he bid on the name, Illinois passed a Truth in Music law that mandates a musical group must include at least one original member in order to use a preexisting name.\nDeanne and Sanders flew to Chicago to see Reincke perform and thought he was so good that they asked him to become their new Jay. \u201cWe call him Jay Number 3,\u201d Deanne says.\nThe new lineup didn\u2019t go out on the road right away. Deanne says they agreed that if it wasn\u2019t going to be great, they wouldn\u2019t do it at all. \u201cWe worked six months in a rehearsal hall, every day, killing ourselves.\u201d\nAudiences can be skeptical of Jay No. 3, but by the end of the show they give him a standing ovation, according to Deanne. \u201cI know I sound like we\u2019re tooting own horn, but it\u2019s been a very hard job to get to the point where he\u2019s accepted.\u201d And now even the other famous singers they share stages with believe in Reincke. \u201c\u2019Whoa,\u2019 they say. \u2018This guy\u2019s got some set of pipes.\u2019\u201d\nBacking them up instrumentally is the USA Band. \u201cThey\u2019re top-flight musicians,\u201d Deanne says. The Americans began playing instruments on stage when The Beatles popularized that\u2014in fact, they opened for the Fab Four in 1964\u2014but they decided to go back to just singing and let talented musicians take care of the instrumentals.\nDeanne says they are blessed to have many hits in their catalog, so when they perform a concert 20 out of 25 songs will be their own, while the remainder are by artists they were close with or who had an effect on their careers.\n\u201cWe consider doing what we do for a living to be a privilege, not an entitlement,\u201d Deanne says. In fact, he would do it for free. \u201cTravel is what they\u2019d have to pay me for,\u201d he says, because that\u2019s the only part that feels like work.\nBut for their Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center show, they don\u2019t have to travel far. Deanne lives in Long Beach, Kane is in Oceanside and Sanders is in Warwick. \u201cWe love playing locally,\u201d Deanne says. They get to drive their own cars and bring their wives along to enjoy the night.\nJay and the Americans perform at 8 p.m. Sunday, February 15, at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center, 76 Main Street, Westhampton Beach. Tickets are $75, $60 and $45. Visit whbpac.org or call 631-283-1500.\nHamptons Police Blotter: McGumbus Spay Camp, Manhunt\nHamptons Week Ahead: Burlesque, V-Day, 'Love Is...?'",

A former star player for the Capitals, he was in his first job as an NHL head coach.\nThis season, Washington finished with the ninth-most points in the Eastern Conference, one spot out of a playoff berth.\n\u201cI feel a change is needed in order to get us back to being a top echelon team that competes for the Stanley Cup,\u201d Capitals owner Ted Leonsis said, according to the team\u2019s news release announcing the moves.\nOvechkin has won three league MVP awards and again led the NHL in scoring this season with 51 goals, but the Capitals haven\u2019t made it past the second round of the playoffs during the Russian wing\u2019s career.\nThe Capitals reached the Stanley Cup finals in 1998, McPhee\u2019s first year on the job, and were swept by the Detroit Red Wings.\nLater, McPhee oversaw a \u201crebuild\u201d ordered by Leonsis, including jettisoning top players with big contracts such as Jaromir Jagr.\nWhile McPhee eventually built a young roster filled with offensive stars, he never placed as much emphasis on constructing a rugged, defensive-minded blue line crop.\nHe hired a succession of coaches with zero previous NHL experience running a team, including Glen Hanlon, Bruce Boudreau, Dale Hunter and Oates.\nLed by Ovechkin, the Capitals produced terrific regular-season results for a half-dozen seasons, without similar success in the postseason. Four years ago, Washington won the Presidents\u2019 Trophy for having the most points during the season, then lost in the first round of the playoffs to the eighth-seeded Montreal Canadiens.\n\u201cGeorge has been a terrific, longtime executive for our franchise, and I\u2019m grateful for his commitment to the Capitals organization for the past 17 years,\u201d Leonsis said.\n\u201cUnder his leadership, the Capitals won seven division titles, twice were the top team in the Eastern Conference, earned a Presidents\u2019 Trophy and competed in the playoffs 10 times,\u201d Leonsis continued. \u201cHe was a highly effective manager who is extremely well regarded within our organization and around the NHL.\u201d\nThe Capitals went 65-48-17 under Oates in his two seasons.\nIn 2012-13, they reached the playoffs before losing in the first round to the New York Rangers in seven games.\n\u201cWe are also appreciative of Adam\u2019s efforts and thank him for his devotion, work ethic and contributions to the Capitals the past two seasons,\u201d Leonsis said. \u201cHe is a smart, tactical coach who improved the performance of several of our players. He is a Hall of Fame player who we believe will be a longtime coach in the NHL.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Lessons from Gary Ott: A difficult beginning, a tragic end \u2014 and what's next\nPublished: October 21, 2017 8:30 pm Updated: Oct. 21, 2017 9:15 p.m.\nSalt Lake County Recorder Gary Ott sits with Chief Deputy Recorder Julie Dole, left, and governmental affairs liaison Karmen Sanone in the county council meeting as members meet and vote on a new nepotism policy during their meeting in Salt Lake City on Tuesday, April 26, 2016.\nEx-Salt Lake County Recorder Gary Ott dies, family confirms\nGary Ott not safe, finances in 'shambles' under Sanone's care, family says\nTestimony: Gary Ott had dementia long before 2014 campaign\nSALT LAKE CITY \u2014 \"There's reasons I can't do things, so that's what it's going to be.\"\nThat was Gary Ott's answer when a Deseret News reporter first asked him to address questions about whether he'd been having trouble with his memory during an interview at the state Capitol in February last year, flanked by his top staffers, Julie Dole and Karmen Sanone.\nDuring that 2016 interview, Ott wouldn't answer questions about his office or how long he had been Salt Lake County recorder without turning to Sanone for assistance, who would answer for him.\nThat interview, along with concerns from county employees that Ott wasn't in charge of his own office or even his own faculties, led to the publication of the Deseret News' first investigative report into Ott's health and the accusations that Sanone and Dole were covering up his condition.\nWhat followed was a cascade of events that would eventually lead to calls for his resignation, state-level conversations about whether Utah should have a law to remove mentally incapacitated elected officials, investigations into whether he'd been the victim of elder abuse and, eventually, a legal battle between his family and Sanone about who should be his legal guardian.\nYet just days after court hearings concluded and the matter fell into the judge's hands for a decision, Ott succumbed to Alzheimer's disease at age 66. His funeral is being planned for next Saturday in southern Utah.\nIt was a tragic turn in a nearly two-year saga in which Ott's struggle played out in public, illuminating the complexities and hardships dementia patients and their loved ones endure. It also highlighted the responsibility a public figure has to his constituents and weaknesses in the system when something goes wrong.\nIn Utah, more than 30,000 people are suffering from Alzheimer's, with that number expected to grow by almost 60 percent in the next eight years, according to Jeremy Cunningham, spokesman for the Alzheimer's Association of Utah.\n\"I'm afraid that (Ott) will be remembered for the last years of his life,\" Cunningham said on Friday, noting that Ott was a friend of his. \"It just goes to show you even to the most brilliant people, Alzheimer's is not a respecter of anyone.\"\nOtt's story has raised questions of whether Utah should have a law to protect both elected leaders and taxpayers from situations when an elected official may not be capable of making decisions to help themselves or those they serve.\nIt's not clear what the next chapter will be in the tragic and complex story of Gary Ott \u2014 whether a legal battle between his siblings and Sanone will continue over his estate, whether Utah lawmakers will pass a bill to allow removal of incapacitated elected officials, and what, if anything, will come of investigations pending in Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill's office.\nThe family's attorney, Mary Corporon, said Friday Ott did not have a will, and Ott's siblings will be filing \"a probate action in the near future.\"\nSanone said she \"hoped\" the matter didn't rise to another legal fight.\nOn the afternoon of his death, Ott's siblings called for \"justice.\" Ott's brother, Marty Ott, said he's convinced Sanone and Dole \u2014 though they consistently deny the allegations \u2014 committed \"fraud\" and \"conspiracy\" and took advantage of Ott when he was vulnerable. He said Gill now has a case handed to him on a \"silver platter.\"\nGill said Thursday his office's investigations are continuing, and that new information surfaced from last week's court hearing. He said his team is \"monitoring\" that information, and he promised if there is an \"articulable violation, we will pursue that.\"\nStill, questions have persisted about how and when Ott's health began declining, and how concerns about his health impacted his time as an elected official when he was earning about $190,000 in taxpayer-paid salary and benefits \u2014 which is why Utah journalists fought to keep last week's hearings open to the public.\nWhile no one may ever know Ott's exact state of mind when he ran for re-election in 2014, it was revealed in last week's hearings that Ott was diagnosed with a form of progressive dementia as early as October 2013.\nJust how much of an impact that diagnosis had on Ott's ability to think for himself when he was elected for another term, however, remains unclear. While county employees, friends and family testified in court he couldn't drive, read or give speeches as early as 2012, others said he was actively engaged in his campaign.\nEric Keller, a longtime friend and husband of Ott's former chief deputy, said he started noticing red flags in Ott's behavior even before Ott unsuccessfully ran for county mayor in 2012.\n\"He just wasn't himself,\" Keller said. \"I could tell he was deteriorating.\"\nKeller told of how Ott \"stumbled\" through a speech when he announced he was running for mayor and struggled to navigate when driving.\nHis wife, Tonya Keller, said Ott \u2014 who was once a \"micromanager,\" reading \"every word\" in budgets and other office material \u2014 became \"very scattered.\" She said when he filed his financial disclosures for the mayor's race, he was missing statements and checks, so she had to help him get the right information together.\nTonya Keller also said by 2013, Ott would \"sign whatever you told him to sign.\"\nTonya Keller also said she was fired soon after she became \"very vocal\" about her intentions not to help him run for another term and after she made multiple suggestions to Ott that perhaps he should retire. About a month after she was fired, Dole was hired.\nOtt's nephew, Jonathan Williams, also testified his uncle didn't recognize him when he saw him at a 2012 caucus night.\nYet Salt Lake County Assessor Kevin Jacobs, who at times helped put up signs for Ott during his 2014 campaign, said Ott seemed to recognize people at events and he would be engaged in conversations while shaking hands.\nWhen Dole was on the stand, she pointed to pictures on her Facebook page, showing that Ott was actively participating in his 2014 campaign in meet-and-greets and parades. She said he still did his own speech at the 2014 convention.\nDole acknowledged Ott had trouble speaking as early as 2012, but she attributed it to his bout of shingles.\n\"I don't know if I would call it a speech impediment or a stutter with his shingles,\" she said. \"But as long as you gave him time to get it out, he could get it out.\nAfter Ott won re-election, he \"needed to be prompted\" to repeat the oath of office during his January 2015 swearing-in ceremony with Salt Lake County Clerk Sherrie Swensen, testified Dottie Sinfield-Ellis, an employee in the recorder's office.\nBut Swensen, who also testified in court, said she didn't see anything unusual during the private swearing-in. She called it \"uneventful\" and said she believed Ott knew what was going on when he took the oath.\nA key issue in the court hearing was whether Ott was mentally aware of what he was doing when he signed a 2015 document nominating Sanone as his medical decision maker \u2014 the same day he was sworn in.\nDole witnessed the signing of that document, saying Ott brought it to her with a story of how his mother had fallen ill and that her health declined after Ott's siblings began making medical decisions for her.\nOtt's physician Charles Richardson \u2014 who had suspected that Ott was suffering from dementia after complaining of headaches and trouble concentrating \u2014 said Ott likely didn't understand any complicated documents in 2015.\n\"I feel like it would be difficult for him to understand any complex documents given the symptoms at the time,\" Richardson said.\nBecause the guardianship case was rendered moot upon Ott's death, the public will likely never know how 3rd District Judge Bruce Lubeck would have ruled and whether he believed Ott was competent when he signed the health care document in 2015.\nSuch a ruling might have helped determine how early Ott's mental decline began and the extent of his condition when he began his fifth and final term in office.\nIf any other determinations or findings are to be made, they lay with Gill's ongoing investigation.\nWhile Heather Holbrook, with Adult Protective Services, testified that investigations into allegations that Sanone and Dole were exploiting or abusing Ott produced \"inconclusive\" results, it remains to be seen whether Gill's investigation may press charges, perhaps on fraud, as Marty Ott alleges.\nPressure on Gill may mount. Salt Lake County Republican Chairman Jake Parkinson said he's planning a press conference on Monday to call out Gill's \"inaction.\"\nGill promised he would file charges if evidence allowed, but he noted that his office must \"work within the parameters of the law and admissible evidence.\"\nIn the larger scheme of things, however, Gill \u2014 who was at the table with county officials who grappled with few legal options to turn to as Ott's story unfolded \u2014 said least one thing needs to happen to prevent further tragedy.\n\"We need to make sure we strengthen and change our laws so this kind of situation and tragedy never happens,\" Gill said in an interview the day he learned of Ott's death.\n\"The saddest thing that would come out of this is if we don't learn from this and we don't recognize we need to do everything we can so something like this doesn't happen again.\"\nA panel of lawmakers this fall approved draft legislation for consideration in the 2018 session that would allow the removal of mentally incapacitated elected officials.\nIt's not clear how much political support the bill will garner, given that lawmakers in the past have expressed wariness on creating a law that could be used as a political weapon.\nBut at least to one lawmaker \u2014 the bill's sponsor, Sen. Daniel Thatcher \u2014 the issue is too important to ignore.\n\"At the end of the day, this is what I care about,\" Thatcher said when he presented the bill last month. \"I care that (Ott's) condition was hidden from the public. I care that Salt Lake County came to us and specifically said, 'Please give us a tool to address this in the future and make sure nothing like this ever happens again.\"\nFuneral services for Gary Ott will be held at the Cannonville LDS chapel in Garfield County at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 28. Visitation will be from 11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Burial will be in the Tropic Cemetery.",

Sri Lanka has been engulfed in turmoil since President Maithripala Sirisena dismissed Wickremesinghe last month and replaced him with ex-strongman Mahinda Rajapaksa. Since his ouster, Wickremesinghe has remained in the prime minister's official residence and insists he is still the legitimate leader.(Photo11: Rukmal Gamage / AP)\nColombo, Sri Lanka \u2013 Sri Lanka\u2019s President Maithripala Sirisena on Friday dissolved Parliament and called for fresh elections amid a deepening political crisis.\nThe government printer published a notification signed by Sirisena announcing the dissolution of Parliament effective at midnight Friday.\nThe notice says the names of candidates for new elections will be called before Nov. 26, and the election will be held on Jan. 5. The new Parliament is to be convened on Jan. 17.\nSri Lanka has been in a political crisis since Oct. 26, when Sirisena fired his prime minister, Ranil Wickremesinghe, and replaced him with former strongman Mahinda Rajapaksa.\nWickremesinghe has insisted his firing is unconstitutional. He has refused to vacate his official residence and demanded that Parliament be summoned to prove he had support among its members.\nThere were also calls both locally and internationally to convene Parliament to end the impasse.\nSirisena maintained his choice for prime minister, Mahinda Rajapaksa, had a majority in Parliament. However, the decision to dissolve Parliament shows that is not so, observers say.\n\u201cThe dissolution clearly indicates that Mr. Sirisena has grossly misjudged and miscalculated the support that he might or could secure to demonstrate support in the Parliament,\u201d said Bharath Gopalaswamy, director at New Delhi-based analyst group Atlantic Council\u2019s South Asia Center.\n\u201cAt the end of the day, he is a victim of his own homegrown crisis.\u201d\nWickremesinghe\u2019s camp is likely to contest Sirisena\u2019s move because of constitutional provisions stating a Parliament can\u2019t be dissolved until four and a half years after its inception. The current Parliament was elected in August 2015.\n\u201cIt\u2019s totally unconstitutional,\u201d said Harsha de Silva, a member of Wickremesinghe\u2019s United National Party and a former minister.\n\u201cSirisena has relegated the constitution to toilet paper. We will fight this dictator to the end.\u201d\nThe party said in a Twitter message that it will meet the elections commissioner to discuss the constitutionality of Sirisena\u2019s move.\nRajapaksa indicated what was coming hours before the dissolution in a speech. He said the government must go to the people for confirmation on whether the president made the correct decision when he appointed him as prime minister.\nRead or Share this story: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/world/2018/11/09/sri-lanka-president-dissolves-parliament-calls-election/38459587/",

        "raw_content": "Home > Hispanic/Latinos in Wisconsin: Health Facts\nChronic Disease 1\nDuring the years 2001-2005, the three leading causes of death among Hispanics/Latinos in Wisconsin were cancer, heart disease, and unintentional injury.\nCancer caused 19 percent of Hispanic/Latino deaths in Wisconsin, and heart disease caused 15 percent.\nLatinos in Wisconsin have lower rates of death and hospitalization from heart disease, compared to the total Wisconsin population.\nIn 2001-2005, the age-adjusted mortality rate from heart disease was 80 deaths per 100,000 population among Hispanics/Latinos, compared to 202 per 100,000 in the total Wisconsin population.\nBoth male and female Hispanics/Latinos have lower rates of heart disease hospitalization compared to their counterparts in the total population.\nIn 2001-2005, the age-adjusted cancer mortality rate for Hispanic/Latinos was 82 deaths per 100,000 population, compared to 184 per 100,000 for the total Wisconsin population.\nHispanics/Latinos in Wisconsin have a higher rate of death from diabetes, compared to the total Wisconsin population.\nHispanics/Latinos bear a disproportionate share of the burden of HIV/AIDS in Wisconsin. Hispanic/Latinos accounted for 13.1 percent of new cases of HIV infection in 2001-2005, while making up about 4 percent of the total Wisconsin population.\nDuring the 2001-2005 period, Hispanic/Latinos accounted for 13.1 percent of newly reported cases of HIV infection among males and 12.9 percent of new cases among females.\nHealth Risk Factors 3\nAn estimated 24 percent of Hispanic/Latino adults in Wisconsin smoke cigarettes, based on survey results for 2001-2005. This was not significantly different from the percentage who reported smoking in the total adult population (22%).\nHispanic/Latino adults reported levels of alcohol use similar to those reported by the total adult population of Wisconsin. For example, the percentage of Hispanic/Latinos who reported binge drinking (28%) was not significantly different from the percentage reported by the total population (24%).\nNearly half of Hispanic/Latino adults (48%) reported they were physically inactive in terms of leisure-time activity. This was not significantly different from the proportion reported by the total adult population (45%).\nNearly two-thirds of Hispanic/Latino adults (65 percent) were overweight or obese, compared to 60 percent of the total population.\nBased on Wisconsin Family Health Survey results for 2001-2005, Hispanics/Latinos were less likely than the total population to have health insurance at any given point in time. Seventy-seven percent of Hispanic/Latinos, compared with 93 percent of the total Wisconsin population, said they had some form of health insurance at the time of the survey interview.\nNearly one-quarter (23%) of Hispanics/Latinos were uninsured at the time of the survey interview. This was nearly four times the percentage uninsured in the total Wisconsin population (6%).\nAnother measure of health insurance coverage is coverage over the year preceding the survey interview (coverage over \"the past year\"). Nineteen percent of Hispanic/Latinos were uninsured for all of the past year; this is nearly five times the percent in the total state population (4%).\nAnother 10 percent of Hispanics/Latinos had been insured for only part of the past year, meaning they were uninsured for part of the year.\nBack to History [1]\nBack to Overview [2]\nMinority Health Report, 2001-2005, P-45716 [3] (PDF)\nAdditional Information About Hispanic/Latinos in Wisconsin\nMore information on Hispanic/Latino population estimates is available from an interactive data query system, Wisconsin Interactive Statistics on Health [4] (WISH), on the Wisconsin Department of Health Services site.\nA synopsis of health-related findings about Hispanic/Latinos in Wisconsin can be found in the Department's Wisconsin Minority Health Report, 2001-2005, P-45716 [3] (PDF).\nLatinos in Wisconsin: A Statistical Overview [5] (PDF) presents demographic information on the state's Hispanic or Latino population. The report relies principally on data from the 2010 Census and estimates from 2010 American Community Survey (ACS) to create a statistical portrait of Latinos in Wisconsin and draw comparisons with Wisconsin's total population in a series of charts, maps, and tables. Thematically the report focuses on demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the Latino population such as size and distribution, age structure, composition of households and families, education, income and poverty, employment, housing, and health care. In a few instances the report includes time-series data with the results of earlier Censuses. To supplement Census and ACS data sources, the report also draws on data from the Wisconsin Departments of Health Services and of Public Instruction.\nWisconsin Historical Society [6]\nUniversity of Wisconsin, Madison, Chican@ and Latin@ Studies [7]\nUniversity of Wisconsin, Madison, Latin American, Caribbean and Iberian Studies [8]\nMilwaukee Latino Health Coalition [9]\nThe Latino Health Council and La Movida [10]\nCollaborative Center for Health Equity [11]\nU.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program [12]\nBack to Page Links\nSource URL (modified on 09/10/2018 - 16:09): https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/minority-health/population/hispanlatino-pophealth.htm\n[1] https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/minority-health/population/hispanlatino-pophist.htm\n[2] https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/minority-health/population/hispanlatino-pop.htm\n[4] https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/wish/index.htm\n[5] http://www.apl.wisc.edu/publications/Latino_Chartbook_2010.pdf\n[6] http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/\n[7] http://www.chicla.wisc.edu/\n[8] http://www.grad.wisc.edu/catalog/letsci/latinam.html\n[9] https://www.facebook.com/pages/Milwaukee-Latino-Health-Coalition/109570462425563\n[10] http://latinohealthcouncil.org/en/our-health/\n[11] http://cche.wisc.edu/\n[12] http://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest.html",

        "raw_content": "Samsung leapfrogs Apple to take smartphone market\u2019s top spot\nBy\tAndrew Couts\t@andrewcouts \u2014 Posted on\tMay 1, 2012 4:30PM PST 05.1.12 - 4:30PM PST\nSamsung is now the world\u2019s leading smartphone maker, according to a slew of reports out this week from Juniper Research, International Data Corp (IDC), and comScore. Thanks to impressive shipment numbers during the first three months of 2012, Samsung now controls more of the smartphone market than either Apple or Nokia.\nAccording to IDC\u2019s estimates, Samsung shipped 42.2 million smartphones during January, February, and March \u2014 a whopping 267 percent increase over the same period last year. This gives Samsung a commanding 29.1 percent of the world\u2019s smartphone market.\nApple, by comparison, sold 35.1 million iPhones during the first quarter, a 88.7 percent increase over 2011\u2019s Q1 numbers. This puts Apple in the number two slot, with 24.2 percent of the market. It should be noted that, while it\u2019s never ideal to be second best, 35.1 million phones sold in three months is nothing to balk at. And Apple currently owes its overall success to the popularity of the iPhone.\nNokia, on the other hand, isn\u2019t doing so hot. Once the world\u2019s largest cell phone maker, Nokia has yet to make significant headway in the world of smartphones, despite its partnership with Microsoft. The Finnish company sold 11.9 million smartphones during the first quarter, according to IDC, a 50.8 percent drop over the previous year. Nokia now holds 8.2 percent of the smartphone market.\nHTC sits at the bottom of the top five with 4.8 percent of the market, based on 6.9 million in sales. This could change in the next quarter, however, with the help of HTC\u2019s new blockbuster handset, the One X (review).\nOf course, we can\u2019t mention decline in the smartphone market without talking about Research In Motion. The Canadian company sold about 9.7 million BlackBerry handsets, giving it 6.7 percent of the smartphone market. This constitutes a 29.7 percent drop over Q1 of 2011.\nThanks primarily to Samsung and Apple, as well as a number of smaller manufacturers, the smartphone market is doing well overall. Total shipments are up 42.5 percent, says IDC, to 144.9 million. The overall mobile phone market took a hit, however, dropping 1.5 points in the first quarter.\nOf course, there\u2019s no guarantee that Samsung will stay in the top spot for long. The Galaxy S III is expected to arrive on Wednesday. And Apple\u2019s next iPhone \u2014 whatever it\u2019ll be called \u2014 will be here soon enough. Regardless, it would seem that we have our top two contenders for the foreseeable future. Unless, of course, RIM makes a miraculous comeback with BlackBerry 10.

Located in the village of Kambos is the Archaeological Museum, which is situated on a hill which was once the ancient fortress of Oinoe. The museum has many artefacts for visitors to see including Neolithic tools, pottery, clay statuettes, coins, carved headstones and columns. Next to the museum is Agia Irini, the island's oldest church.\nThe island, which derives its name from Icarus, the son of Daedalus in Greek mythology, is connected by ferry to the Greek ports of Piraeus and Rafina. ferry connections are also available to the Cycladic islands of Syros, Tinos, Mykonos and Andros and also to the islands of Rhodes and Ikaria. Journey times vary between around 5 and 10 hours depending on ferry type and route.",

This is a hollow promise because the kinds of jobs he\u2019s referring to are quickly being replaced by robotic machines driven by incredible software.\nIn the past, manufacturing went to the countries with the lowest wages. In the future manufacturing will go to the countries with the best robots, software and the most talented engineers. For a brilliant example, check out the YouTube video of Tesla autos being produced in California:\nChina is spending $3.5 billion annually on robotics, North America less than $2 billion. This investment is translating into fewer manufacturing jobs. Foxconn (China), the world\u2019s 10th largest employer and Apple\u2019s biggest supplier, has already replaced 60,000 workers with robots.\nIf you have kids in school, encourage them to go into software development or mechanical engineering. That\u2019s where the future is. If that doesn\u2019t appeal to them, they should learn a trade. The need for good plumbers, electricians and other trades people will continue for a long time.\n2 Responses to Trump\u2019s hollow promise of bringing jobs back to America:\nJim Croome March 22, 2017 at 3:57 pm\tReply\nI live in the rural South where textile mills employed thousands of unskilled workers for decades. When the jobs left they all went on welfare. Now there kids are doing the same. After NAFTA the economist said let the jobs go and retrain for better skill jobs. Guess what, no companies have moved in that needed better skilled workers. Those workers went on welfare also. This argument assumes there are better jobs for these unskilled or even skilled workers. Except in larger cities companies moved out and nothing moved in. There has to be some way to employ unskilled workers. You will always have them. I am not sure that even a government incentive to certain industries to hire them would be better than pay them to sit at home. It\u2019s frighting how many kids drop out of school and then find they have no ability to make a living. They eventually turn to crime and or assistance. Our inner cities are a great example. The suggestion of trade skills is a good thought. This would be the best possibility for these folks. But again, the high schools have drunk the kool-aid on college for all. We have very little trade classes in school and zero for those that drop out. Training here would be a good use of public funds, but there is no program. I am not sure these folks are on the Presidents radar when he talks about jobs but they should be. There are millions of these folks and quite fewer number that can become engineers or a computer programers.\nJack Leitch February 23, 2018 at 2:05 pm\tReply\nI think you are referring to the man who leads the world in B.S baffles brains. Can we replace him with a robot?\nhttps://www.donaldcooper.com/trumps-hollow-promise-bringing-jobs-back-america/",

        "raw_content": "Of all the stress fractures that can occur in the lower extremities of athletes, one of the least common, but unfortunately most serious, is a navicular stress fracture. This is a bone in the midfoot toward the inside of the foot. Stress fractures of the navicular occur in running and jumping athletes, such as basketball players.\nSigns and symptoms of a navicular stress fracture\nAs with most stress fractures, the athlete will notice pain in the foot despite not having an initial injury to initiate the symptoms. Often the pain will come on after a certain amount of activity and will go away with rest. As it progresses, the pain comes earlier in the training session or game and takes longer to go away. Later on, the pain will not go away with rest and can bother the athlete with activities of daily living, such as walking.\nTests for a navicular stress fracture\nSports medicine physicians who examine these athletes will note tenderness to palpation on the inside of the midfoot, but sometimes the pain can be somewhat diffuse. A high index of suspicion is needed to avoid missing this injury. Early on in the process x-rays can be negative, so a bone scan or MRI might be performed.\nTreatment of a navicular stress fracture\nNavicular stress fractures can be serious injuries. As with most stress fractures of other parts of the body, treatment is often nonsurgical. Unlike most stress fractures, however, sports medicine physicians are usually very careful with this injury, and I almost always place these athletes in a cast. I\u2019m very concerned with the possibility of the fracture not healing, so I will even keep the athlete from putting weight on it until the fracture heals. Many surgeons even advocate surgical treatment, especially in high-level athletes. If the fracture does not heal, surgery to put bone graft in the fracture and hold it in place with one or two screws is indicated.\nNavicular Stress fractures and heel pain.\nThis injury, whether treated surgically or non-surgically, often costs the athlete the majority, if not all, of the season. Most surgeons recommend that the fracture completely heals prior to resuming any type of running. Running and then sport-specific activity is instituted slowly, and the process can take up to 4 to 6 months.\nNavicular stress fracture: Signs, symptoms and treatment options",

        "title": "Nature vs. Nurture: Heritability of Reproduction | Drovers",
        "raw_content": "Justin Rhinehart, University Of Tennessee\nThere are many \u201crules of thumb\u201d and general statements that get repeated so often, and for so long, that they are considered fact even when we do not fully understand them. One of those general statements is that \u201creproduction is not highly heritable.\u201d Or, in other words, that it is difficult to identify individual animals that exhibit a beneficial trait related to reproduction, mate them, and expect an improvement in that trait. On the other hand, there are several production traits that can be rapidly changed with that type of selective mating. An example of a trait that is highly heritable is height (frame score). If you breed a large frame bull to a large frame cow, you can expect a large frame calf from that mating. The fact that reproductive traits are lowly heritable is certainly unfortunate since reproductive performance has the largest influence on profitability in cow-calf production.\nA basic understanding of genetics will help us understand why some traits are more heritable than others. The basis for heritability has to do with a phrase you have probably heard before \u2013 \u201cnature verses nurture.\u201d This phrase is often used when talking about human behavior and poses the question of what is more influential on the way an individual looks or acts, the genes that the individual inherited from their parents or the environment they are raised in? Of course, it is always a mix of both those influences. But, the point here is that some traits can be explained by the environment better than they can be explained by genetics. Reproduction, or the likelihood of a calf being produced by mating a particular bull and cow, is one of those traits that is influenced dramatically by environment.\nEven if we focus on one half of the mating, it is difficult to predict an outcome for pregnancy rate to that mating because there are so many genes that impact how the reproductive tract functions and then how the early embryo develops. And, many of the genes that influence reproductive function work differently in different environments. To make predicting fertility even more difficult, the way we measure the outcome of a mating only gives us a yes or no (pregnant or open) answer from each mating instead of a number within a broad range (ex: 632 lbs. at weaning). Analyzing data with only two outcomes (binomial) does not give geneticists much power for predicting an outcome unless they have several thousand animals raised in a similar environment.\nIf it is hard to change reproductive performance by individual animal selection and it is hard to predict it by using statistics, then how can cow-calf producers improve it? One of the most tried-and-true, low cost methods for commercial cattle producers to improve reproduction is to make use of heterosis by crossbreeding two or more complimentary breeds. That brings up another rule of thumb that is often repeated but perhaps not fully understood \u2013 \u201ctraits that do not respond well to selection respond well to heterosis.\u201d Methods for crossbreeding to improve reproduction have been covered in these articles before and are covered in many educational meetings across the state. So, rather than making this article too long by rehashing all that here, just realize that most breeding objectives can be met while using heterosis in commercial cattle production. Those targets include consistent hide color (including black-hided if that happens to be the desired outcome), polled, good carcass merit, and a host of many others. This is especially true when you include the use of artificial insemination to access genetics of bulls from smaller breed registries where above average multi-trait genetic merit might be more expensive in a live sire because of low supply with high demand.\nAnother simple way to improve reproductive performance is to safeguard against reproductive failures by ensuring that nutrition and health are adequately maintained for all males and females. It would be lacking to write about nutrition and health management without mentioning the single most effective way to make sure health and nutrition are managed properly \u2013 that is by having a defined breeding season. If all the calves are a similar age and the cows are at similar points in their production cycle on any given day, it makes managing health and nutrition easier and much more efficient.\nTrying to improve an outcome without measuring it is a difficult proposition. The most basic method for cattle producers to measure reproductive performance is to record which breeding age females have a calf each year. You could think of calving as the most conclusive way to determine if all the genes that influence reproductive performance fit your environment in one simple record. Again, that does not make it easy to predict, but it is at least a simple way to measure the actual outcome. Putting heavy selection pressure on cows by only keeping cows that produce a calf every year in a defined calving season is the surest way to improve reproduction in that environment with the genetics you manage. Luckily, we can check pregnancy early cows and heifers to determine whether they will have a calf instead of investing feed and resources in them until we see whether or not they actually have a calf.\nNone of these approaches for improving reproductive performance in a cow herd seem very high-tech and they certainly are not new ideas. However, they have not been widely adopted in our state. There are valid reasons for why many producers decide not to make these improvements. But, it seems reasonable to at least acknowledge the lost potential revenue by not using them for what it is \u2013 the cost of convenience. It also seems reasonable, if not responsible, to adopt these basic methods before seeking other, less effective and more economically- or socially-expensive methods for improving beef cattle production on an individual herd or statewide scale.",

If you would like to book a tattoo, go to the contact section of the website and either phone or email the studio.\nOur advice to anyone wanting a tattoo would be as follows- Think about it! Have a look on the internet, in magazines and other design sources to get a good idea of what you want, collect together all images you think will help the artist create your design, there is nothing worse than a customer trying to describe the picture that is contained within their mind because the artist does not necessarily have the same idea in their mind!\nOnce a design is selected it is important to find out when the artist can do it. You might be able to get it done straight away, or if you make a booking, you\u2019ll be required (in most cases) to leave a deposit. This is a non refundable sum of money unless 24 hours notice is given for a cancellation.\nIf you are going to have names or dates tattooed on you make sure you know the date or the correct spelling \u2013 you\u2019d be amazed at how many customers don\u2019t know spellings of their own children or wives!\nDust N\u2019 Bones accepts cash only, there is a free cash point nearby.\nLegally, to get a tattoo, you must be 18 or over, therefore photographic ID will be required if you look under age, don\u2019t be offended if we ask you, think of it as flattery. Please do not take a group of mates with you \u2013 often they can distract you or the artist, and it can get over crowded very easily.\nYour Tattoo is for life, taking proper care of it in the first few days will ensure that your work of art looks its best:\nRemove the dressing around 1 hour after having the work done.\nWash the tattoo with warm soapy water. Rinse with cool water and pat dry with a soft towel daily.\nEnsure you keep your tattoo clean at all times.\nNo sunbathing, sun beds,swimming or saunas until the tattoo has healed.\nDo NOT put Vaseline on your tattoo. You can apply a thin layer of moisturising cream to your tattoo to ease any scabbing. Do not pick at your tattoo when at this stage. Doing so will remove the colour from the skin and could possibly cause scarring. Not good!\nDo not listen to your mates advice, any problems ring the studio or pop in so we can take a look at it\nYour tattoo should be healed between 7 to 14 days.\nWhen your tattoo has healed apply total sunblock if it is going to be exposed to the sun.",

        "raw_content": "Iran to profit from Israel's submarine deal with ThyssenKrupp\nIsrael is purchasing German submarines to protect itself against its archenemy Iran. However, the Islamic Republic stands to profit from the deal financially.\nIn a cabinet meeting in late November, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized that the new submarines were absolutely necessary to ensure Israel's existence. The Dolphin-class submarines, made by Germany's ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS), are to conduct reconnaissance missions off the coast of Iran. They could also see action should there ever be a military conflict between the two countries.\nIsrael feels threatened by Iran, and Iran refuses to acknowledge the existence of the state of Israel. Netanyahu is up in arms about the nuclear deal between Iran and the UN Security Council and Germany, which US President Barack Obama has said will make the world a safer place. The Israeli prime minister is convinced that Iran remains dedicated to becoming a nuclear power. Israel's new Dolphin-class submarines could also be retrofitted to carry nuclear warheads. \"These are strategic weapons systems that ensure the future and, I tell you, the very existence of the state of Israel for decades to come,\" stressed Netanyahu.\nIran: A major investor\nBut one country will profit from the deal immediately: Iran. Israel's archenemy is one of ThyssenKrupp's investors, and it has been so since 1974.\nNetanyahu: The submarines ensure 'the very existence of the state of Israel'\nDuring the shah era, the governments of Iran and Israel were the best of friends. Both were also allies of the United States. With its coffers overflowing after the oil crisis of the early 1970s, Iran went on an international shopping spree. At the time, Iran invested $400 million (383 million euros) in Germany's Krupp corporation, purchasing 25 percent of its shares.\nAfter the Islamic revolution in 1979, Iran entered a long war with Iraq. Iran needed cash, and sold off a portion of its shares. Yet it still held about 8 percent of the company's equity share.\n$100 million in profits?\nIn 2003, that share shrunk further: Mohammed ElBaradei, then director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), published a report accusing Iran of hiding certain nuclear materials and activities. Under pressure from the US, the conglomerate ThyssenKrupp eventually bought back shares from Iran. The company saw to it that Iranian investments made up less than 5 percent of its equity share. To do so, ThyssenKrupp paid Iran 406 million euros, which was three times market value at the time.\nCurrently, Iran is thought to hold about 4.5 percent of the company's total shares. Responding to a DW inquiry, ThyssenKrupp said that neither Iran, nor any other investor, had the right to information or influence regarding sales decisions at the company. ThyssenKrupp says that investors receive only dividends.\nThe three new submarines to be built for Israel will carry a price tag of 1.2 billion euros. It is unclear how much profit Iran will see from the deal. The Israeli newspaper \"Haaretz\" estimates that Iran has made roughly $100 million dollars in profits from its investment in ThyssenKrupp over the last 10 years. No one wants to talk about the investment in Tehran.\nThyssenKrupp Marine Systems is delivering the submarines to Israel for 1.2 billion euros ($1.25 billion)\nControversial in Israel and Germany\nIsrael already has five Dolphin-class submarines, and another is scheduled to be delivered in 2017. The country's former defense minister, Moshe Yaalon, says Israel does not need any more submarines. \"I was strongly opposed to the purchase of three new submarines,\" he said in November. Yaalon resigned in May, after a spat with Netanyahu.\nMeanwhile, Israel's attorney general has called for an investigation of the deal, which is shrouded in accusations of cronyism: Netanyahu's personal legal adviser also represents an Israeli businessman that works for ThyssenKrupp as a sales partner. He could stand to make millions in profits should the deal go through. It remains unclear whether there is any substance to the corruption allegations. Netanyahu claims to have known nothing of the connections. The investigation is ongoing.\nThe fact that the Dolphin-class submarines could also be outfitted with nuclear warheads - a touchy issue in the turbulent Middle East - has sparked debate over the deal in Germany as well. Israel has never admitted that it possesses nuclear weapons, but experts estimate that it has between 100 and 200 nuclear warheads and missiles.\nIranian hardliners oppose the nuclear deal\nIsrael's interest in purchasing three new submarines has given hardliners in Tehran one more reason to criticize the nuclear deal and accuse the reform-minded government of Hassan Rouhani of failure. The \"Fars News Agency,\" a news outlet with close ties to Iran's Revolutionary Guard, claims that Israel is preparing for a potential nuclear war with Iran.\nNetanyahu and Trump both strongly oppose Iran obtaining nuclear weapons\nThe powerful Revolutionary Guard was strictly opposed to the nuclear deal. It was reported that Iran had enough nuclear material to build an atomic bomb before the deal was signed. The agreement stipulates that this material is to be reduced to just a fraction of that necessary to make an atomic weapon. This limitation will remain in place for 15 years.\nAnd that is exactly where hardliners see Rouhani's failure. Netanyahu's intention of meeting future American president Donald Trump to discuss ending the agreement seems to suit the wishes of Iran's hardliners. That will bring difficulties for the current reform-minded administration in Tehran ahead of next May's Iranian presidential elections, and possibly thwart its plans to further open the country.\n\"There are a number of ways to annul the deal,\" says Netanyahu. During the recent US presidential election, Donald Trump called the deal - which was signed in July 2015, after years of negotiations - a \"catastrophe.\"\nBitter politics resound at UN General Assembly\nGlobal tensions have been particularly apparent at this year's UN General Assembly, with the most recent set of speakers no exception.

        "raw_content": "Budget Cuts, Economy Affected Summer Meals Programs\nAndrea Orellana eats lunch at Rolling Terrace Elementary School in Takoma Park, Md., one of several Montgomery County sites that offered free summer lunches for children.\n\u2014Xiaomei Chen/The Washington Post/Getty Images\nBudget cuts for transportation and a scaling-back of summer school led to fewer children getting free lunches this summer in at least one school district, while economic pressures on families in other locations drove up participation in free or reduced-price meals programs elsewhere.\nThe U.S. Department of Agriculture hasn\u2019t yet reported data for participation this year in free or reduced-price summer meals programs, but directors of food services in several districts credit the ailing economy with driving participation either up or down, depending on how programs are implemented.\nThe recession affected participation in nutrition programs funded by the Department of Agriculture last summer, according to an analysis of federal data by the Food Research and Action Center, a Washington-based nonprofit organization. That group, known as FRAC, reported in June that the department\u2019s two summer meals programs\u2014the Summer Food Service Program and the National School Lunch Program\u2014together served 73,000 fewer children on an average day in July 2009 than in July 2008. An average of 2.8 million children were served each day in July of last year, according to the\nThis summer, the number of free lunches provided to children by the Corning-Painted Post district in Corning, N.Y., dropped from 19,305 to 15,710, or by 19 percent, said Christine E. Wallace, the director of food services for the 5,400-student district.\nMs. Wallace said that the meals service was slashed in several elementary schools this summer when the district eliminated its K-5 summer school program because of a lack of funding. She said the chances for children to get free meals was also reduced because the district didn\u2019t have any money to transport children to meals sites, such as at churches, a library, and recreation centers, as it had done the previous year. For the three summers prior to last summer, a federal grant paid for transportation of students to meals sites.\nIn her rural district, which covers 57 square miles, students often don\u2019t get to summer meals sites without transportation, Ms. Wallace said.\nMeanwhile, in the Denver public schools, the size of the district\u2019s summer school program was about the same this summer as last, but the summer nutrition program grew by leaps and bounds. This June and July the district served 123,072 lunches, up from 79,140 lunches last summer, said Leo J. Lesh, the executive director of enterprise management for the Denver schools.\nHe attributes the jump to an increase in need because of financial pressures on families and increased publicity for the summer nutrition program. That extra publicity was supported by Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter, who started a statewide initiative last year to end childhood hunger.\nThree or four times over the summer, the governor spoke during recorded calls to the homes of the 78,000 students in the district, reminding parents of the free summer meals program.\nMr. Lesh said that the district doesn\u2019t provide transportation to the summer meals sites, but that many children in Denver can get to them. He said that if meals are connected to a summer program, participation is higher.\n\u201cIf all you are going to do is come in and eat and go home, that makes a difference in participation,\u201d he said. \u201cSome of the recreation centers do better [with participation] because you can go there, play basketball, and eat.\u201d\nConnecticut\u2019s New Haven school system also saw an increase in participation in its summer nutrition program this year compared with 2009. The district served 106,451 lunches, up from 102,299 lunches last year, said Timothy Cipriano, a trained chef and the executive director of food services for the district. He attributes the increase to an increase in need among families because of hard economic times.\nSummer means vacation time for lots of children, but for students from low-income families, it may not be a happy time, he said.\n\u201cWhen school is out, there is very little availability of good nutrition\u201d for some students, Mr. Cipriano said. He said that food banks and soup kitchens can\u2019t keep up with the demand in the area for food during the summer.\nThe New Haven district, which has about 20,000 students, has tried various methods to spread the word about a phone number that parents can call to find a summer meals site near where they live. This summer, the district worked with community partners to advertise summer meals on a billboard in New Haven. Mr. Cipriano teamed up with a group called End Hunger Connecticut! to record a public-service announcement for summer meals that aired on radio stations in the state as well.\nA national group with a mission to end childhood hunger, Share Our Strength, based in Washington, estimates that only about 17 percent of children who get free or reduced-price lunches during the school year receive meals from federally funded lunch programs during the summer. The group worked with Gov. Ritter of Colorado, a Democrat, to start Colorado\u2019s campaign to combat childhood hunger. The governor issued an executive order setting a goal of ending childhood hunger in the state by 2015.\nJosh Wachs, the chief strategy officer for Share Our Strength, said his group raises money so it can provide small grants to organizations to overcome barriers to setting up sites for summer meals.\n\u201cThere are federal dollars that reimburse for the food, but not for the infrastructure,\u201d he explained. \u201cMany sites need refrigeration, equipment, and transportation in some cases.\u201d\n\u201cClock Ticking on School Lunch Legislation,\u201d August 2, 2010.\n\u201cFinancial Problems Force Districts to Cut Summer School,\u201d July 14, 2010.",

It will train around 250 apprentices a year in a variety of vital skills including milling, CNC machinery, welding and fabrication.\nAs well as apprentices and young people, the new centre will also provide development training for experienced employees, ensuring that they are equipped with the right skills for the future demands of modern engineering and manufacturing. This will, in turn, help tackle the increasing skills challenges of an ageing workforce.\nIts opening is seen as a key step in securing the future of British manufacturing. The UK is the world\u2019s 8th largest manufacturer, currently employing 2.6 million people and accounting for 11% of GDP. However, for this success story to carry on at a pace, manufacturers need to attract fresh, talented new employees - with training playing a crucial role in their development.\nTerry Scuoler, Chief Executive at EEF, says: \u201cYoung people are the future of manufacturing \u2013 their skills and talents are the lifeblood that allows British businesses to develop and grow. However, this lifeblood is still only trickling through when we need a strong and steady flow.\n\u201cThis centre is an important step in encouraging youngsters into our sector so that we can start to close the skills gap. But apprenticeships aren\u2019t just a \u2018win\u2019 for industry, they\u2019re a \u2018win\u2019 for young people too \u2013 offering an opportunity to kick-start an exciting and rewarding career in a vibrant and dynamic sector. The more who take up this opportunity, the better it will be for manufacturing and the wider economy.\u201d\nThe centre has been warmly welcomed by local MP, Khalid Mahmood, a former engineer himself. While opening the centre he highlighted the vital role the facilities will play in training new engineering and manufacturing talent, as well as contributing to the ongoing recovery of the UK economy.\nKhalid Mahmood, MP for Perry Barr, Birmingham, says: \u201cThis is a fantastic project, and a wonderful opportunity to get young people into engineering. This ambitious initiative is exactly the type of investment in skills this city needs.\u201d\nFor more information, visit our website or EEF\u2019s Apprentice and Skills YouTube channel.",

        "raw_content": "Why Should You Live In A Townhouse Complex?\nMany homeowners have a wrong notion about the life in a townhouse complex. The majority of them think that a townhouse is a glorified apartment where houses are squished together that they share the same wall. Also, some people believe that townhouses are controlled by iron-fisted homeowners\u2019 associations where residents are forced to follow certain rules and regulations. In fact, most of these notions are wrong about townhouses. This article provides an overview of why you need to live in a townhouse complex.\nAll townhouses are not condos for instance. In fact, a townhouse owner own the patch of land where their houses are located while condo owners own only the airspace inside the condominium. You will not own the land if you are living in a condo. Hence, if your dream is to own a piece of land on this planet, you should think about living in a townhouse. Condominiums could be townhouse-style, apartment-style, or several small houses. Hence, a townhouse is not exactly a condo. The homeowners\u2019 association plays an active role when you are living in a townhouse. In fact, you have to pay a small fee every month to them and they will take care of all the maintenance work of the building and little patch of garden surrounding your house.\nA townhouse comes with a community which has certain amenities. Most complexes come with a pool, gym, tennis court, laundry room, and a recreation room. Even if your complex doesn\u2019t have all these amenities, the owners can get together and get these facilities added by pooling their money. As a townhouse owner, you will own a certain percentage of each of these amenities inside the complex. For example, if there are 50 units in your complex, each townhouse owner owns 2% of all these amenities. The advantage of a townhouse is it is much cheaper than a single home or a free-standing home. The only difference is you will be paying your mortgage as well as the homeowners\u2019 association fees every month. But a single-house owner will only pay the mortgage. Townhouses can sometimes share a wall or two with neighboring houses. But this doesn\u2019t happen all the time.\nThis read offers important information on why you should be living in a townhouse right now. It offers some of the major advantages of residing in a townhouse complex.",

Fr. Lennie Connully, Parish Priest of St. Mary\u2019s Church, Mercithon is an extension of the Catholic Church\u2019s Year of Mercy (2016) program and also blends wonderfully into the UAE\u2019s Year of Giving declaration.\n\u201cCaring for others without discrimination on grounds of nationality and religion has been the core tenet of Christianity, and we are happy to demonstrate this by organising this charity event to mark 50 years of St. Mary\u2019s Church,\u201d commented Fr. Lennie.\nMercithon is our way of engaging our community in serving the poor and the sick, which forms the central pillar of our faith, as reiterated by His Holiness Pope Francis in his homilies.\u201d\n\u201cWe are also happy to be inspired by the vision of the UAE leaders, including the President Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President & Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, who have stood out as epitomes of generosity, over the years. The Year of Giving 2017 is a further endorsement of their commitment to humanitarian causes and religious tolerance,\u201d Fr. Lennie added.\nMercithon will be organised by the youth of St. Mary\u2019s Church at Creek Park on February 24 from 8 a.m. to 4 pm in a carnival atmosphere, featuring fun events, rides, games, food stalls, cultural activities, celebrities, music performances and raffle draws.\n\u201cWe are seeking corporate support for raising the targeted amount for the treatment of the six cancer patients. We are sure that companies and organisations will be generous in extending their support for this worthy cause. As cancer treatment is an on-going expense, we plan to make this an annual event on the church calendar in order to help needy people round the year,\u201d said Fr. Lennie.\nThe recipients have been selected on the basis of their inability to pay for regular cancer treatment. Among those who will benefit are Adam Kassem, a three-year-old boy suffering from leukemia, who needs Dh250,000; Sousd Horre, a 44-year-old Moroccan woman suffering from ovarian cancer, who needs Dh40,000; Seema Khalid, a 47-year-old Pakistani woman suffering from breast cancer, who needs Dh65,000; Rabiha Kanbarhi, a Syrian senior citizen suffering from breast cancer, who needsDh75,000; Marites Trinidad Macapallag, a 37-year-old mother suffering from breast cancer, who needs Dh28,000; and Krishnapriya Ayillath, a 35-year-old Indian woman suffering from breast cancer who needs Dh76,000.\nSt. Mary\u2019s Catholic Church has been actively supporting the treatment of cancer patients for a long time.\nThis is the first organised fund-raising activity that will ensure that cases of needy cancer patients are highlighted and they get regular financial support for their treatment, including chemotherapy and surgeries.",

They compared the incidence and distribution of clonal complexes before and after Dutch guideline introduction (intravenous antibiotic prophylaxis during labor in cases of premature labor, prolonged rupture of membranes, or fever during delivery).\nThe researchers found that 65% of group B streptococcus cases had early onset (<7 days after birth). In 1987, the incidence of invasive group B streptococcus infection was 0.2 per 1,000 live births, and it increased to 0.32 per 1,000 live births in 2011 (P<0.0001). There was also an increase seen in the incidence of early-onset disease (0.11\u20130.19 per 1,000 live births; P<0.0001).

        "raw_content": "Ecova Turns 20: Two Decades of Driving Change\nThis year, ENGIE Insight (formerly Ecova) is celebrating 20 years of powerful results in the field of energy and sustainability. We\u2019ve transformed substantially since 1997, when 17 employees of Washington Water Power (WWP) Energy Solutions had a vision to help companies better understand how they were using energy. Today, backed by the financial strength and resources of our parent company, ENGIE, ENGIE Insight leads the industry in delivering value to our clients while shaping a better energy future.\nAll across North America, ENGIE Insight is commemorating this milestone in a variety of ways. We recently held celebrations\u2014with a \u201890s theme, in recognition of our decade of origin\u2014at each of our office locations, and were especially pleased to have Frank Demaille, President and CEO of ENGIE North America, join the festivities in Spokane.\nThroughout May, we\u2019re honoring our 20 years of making an impact with a designated Community Service Month. ENGIE Insight\u2019s standard community service benefit, which provides employees with eight hours of paid time off to volunteer with the organization of their choice, has been extended by four hours. Special volunteer events have also been organized by teams at each office. This initiative builds on ENGIE Insight\u2019s commitment to giving back to the communities in which we live in work, as summarized in our 2016 Corporate Responsibility Report. Last year, our employees gave back a total of 7,824 volunteer hours\u2014the equivalent of nearly four full-time employees. This year we hope to build on that impact and achieve 9,000 hours of service to our communities.\nAbove all, ENGIE Insight\u2019s 20th anniversary provides us with the chance to see how much we\u2019ve grown since 1997. This evolution would not be possible without the support of the organizations we serve\u2014from more than 800 commercial and industrial businesses to nearly 60 utilities and energy efficiency partners. Their confidence and collaboration has enabled ENGIE Insight to grow from a small startup to a global company delivering over 150 TWh in lifetime energy savings in partnership with our utility clients, and over $2.7 billion in identified savings for our commercial and industrial clients over the last 4 years. And with countless exciting developments on our horizon, we look forward to continuing this legacy of shared success for many more years to come.\nPlease join ENGIE Insight in celebrating two decades of transforming the energy landscape by watching our 20th anniversary video below and checking our website for updates. In the weeks to come, we\u2019ll be sharing more stories from the past 20 years and giving you a glimpse into ENGIE Insight\u2019s future.\nPress Release: Ecova Releases 2016 Corporate Responsibility Report",

        "raw_content": "The 20 Best Bands at Lollapalooza You Haven't Heard\nThis has long been my theory: Festival bookers have become some of the music business's last true tastemakers. Six months or earlier, they're tasked with identifying and booking acts people will want to see the following summer. Or hopefully, next summer in a better timeslot on a bigger stage. Every Lollapalooza, we look at bands playing the undercard \u2014 where you might just find you new favorite band, whether you're going or not. This is one of those lists.\nListen to a Spotify playlist of the songs.\nDrowners, \"Long Hair\"\nBecause they're a little bit Smiths, a little bit Strokes, armed with jangly, summery sing-alongs.\nSan Cisco, \"Awkward\"\nBecause these playful Australians swing and swagger on their just-released full-length debut. They're The xx if The xx were raised on Jonathan Richman and the Violent Femmes.\nEmeli Sande, \"Next to Me\"\nBecause 36 million YouTube hits lands you a 1 p.m. slot at Lollapalooza? Seriously, exactly one post-Adele soul singer lives up to the hype, and Sande's it.\nDeap Vally, \"Baby I Call Hell\"\nBecause this unapologetically brazen duo is perhaps the weekend's rookies most in-step with early Lollapalooza tradition: It'd be easy to imagine them stepping in for Babes In Toyland on 1993's Tool/Rage Against the Machine/Dinosaur Jr. outing.\nGhost B.C., \"Monstrance Clock\"\nBecause no matter what Trent Reznor has planned for the same stage later Friday night, the moment these masked Swedes urge us to sing the line \"Come together for Lucifer's son\" en masse becomes the most bizarrely theatrical moment of Lollapalooza 2013. Bonus: take a selfie standing next to frontman Papa Emeritus (Skeletor in a cardinal costume) and you win Instagram.\nD-Pryde, \"Lifted\"\nBecause if this 19-year-old Filipino Canadian rapper were a guitar-totin' singer-songwriter, he'd be Jack Johnson \u2014 this could well be the vibiest summer hip-hop single of the year.\nHoundmouth, \"On the Road\"\nBecause thanks to Shovels & Rope, the Court Yard Hounds, and this Americana-leaning quartet, Lollapalooza ain't all smoke machines and MIDI synths. In fact, spend a few minutes over at Perry's stage and see just how much you'll yearn for folks who aren't there to show their love for Levon Helm slinging real instruments at real hooks.\nHey Marseilles, \"Elegy\"\nBecause even if it seems a few shades too mellow, a little too heady, for Lollapalooza, at year's end, there's a good chance this Seattle septet's Lines We Trace tops your list of Gorgeous Chamber Pop albums.\nBright Light Social Hour, \"Wendy Davis\"\nBecause these hirsute rock 'n' roll throwbacks from Austin can pivot from herky-jerky funk to muscular seventies prog-rock on a dime, as they did on this instant between-albums instrumental tribute to Wendy Davis's Texas senate filibuster for women's rights.\nJake Bugg, \"Lightning Bolt\"\nBecause Coachella set the stage and if \u2014 and admittedly, that's a big \"if\" \u2014 Lollapalooza can still mint stars, this 19-year-old Brit marches onward Monday with \"full-blown American stardom\" crossed off his bucket list.\nFamily of the Year, \"Hero\"\nBecause we didn't know there was this much middle ground between the Flaming Lips and Mumford & Sons.\nFrontier Rukus, \"Black Holes\"\nBecause if you follow this with Shovels & Rope's set, you can tell friends you also went to the Newport Folk Festival.\nShovels & Rope, \"Birmingham\"\nBecause Michael Trent and Cary Ann Hearst are the rootsy \u2014 and not a smidgen less fun \u2014 equivalent of Matt & Kim. That both bands play within hours of each other is pure booking bliss.\nBen Howard, \"Only Love\"\nBecause the first time he shifts from quiet to loud on a dime, you'll see firsthand that goosebumps in 100-percent heat and swampy humidity are still entirely possible.\nGuards, \"Silver Lining\"\nBecause post-Lollapalooza, they'll tour with Queens of the Stone Age, and Queens don't take out openers that can't handle themselves.\nPalma Violets, \"Best of Friends\"\nBecause on our Songs of the Summer playlist, we suggested \"you'll hear the trickle-down influence of U2, the Clash, and the Ramones... and because part of making lists is wishful thinking \u2014 that other people will suddenly share your 'why isn't this a hit?' puzzlement and thus make it so.\" Maybe Lollapalooza is a step toward making it so?\nWild Nothing, \"Paradise\"\nBecause this completes their 2013 Triple Crown: Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Lollapalooza.\nWild Belle, \"It's Too Late\"\nBecause as we suggested pre-Coachella, across this brother/sister duo's debut, Isles, they're so casual, so effortlessly locked into a sunny groove, it'll be fun to see if they sweat a little live. So far, all signs point toward definitely yes.\nSkaters, \"I Wanna Dance (But I Don't Know How)\"\nBecause if there's one song on this list that begs the question, \"How amazing will that sound live?\" it's this scuzzy pop anthem.\nLukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, \"Golden Rule\"\nBecause while this son of Willie shares his father's timbre and phrasing, the effortlessness with which he slides between roadhouse blues, long southern rock jams, and pinches of plaintive country suggests he's well on his way to being his own man.\nPLUS: Listen to More of Andy Langer's Songs of the Week >>\nThe No-Show Fiasco at Lollapalooza",

        "title": "EthicsDaily Walking a Biblical High-Wire: An Interview With Charles Carner - EthicsDaily",
        "raw_content": "Walking a Biblical High-Wire: An Interview With Charles Carner\nPosted By Cliff Vaughn On March 1, 2004 @ 12:00 am In Opinion\nIn the summer of 2001, a film crew gathered in Morocco to portray Jesus\u2019 final hours. It wasn\u2019t a crew for Mel Gibson\u2019s \u201cThe Passion of the Christ,\u201d which was shot in Italy. This crew was shooting the TV movie \u201cJudas,\u201d which portrays not only Jesus\u2019 crucifixion, but also\u2014and mainly\u2014his relationship with his betrayer, Judas Iscariot.\n\u201cJudas,\u201d an \u201cinterpretive dramatization\u201d of Judas\u2019 time with Jesus in politically unstable <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = \u201curn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\u201d />Judea, airs March 8 on ABC. The two-hour special was directed by Charles Carner, who recently spoke with EthicsDaily.com by phone from Los Angeles.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = \u201curn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\u201d />\n\u201cI take my faith very seriously,\u201d said Carner, a Catholic and native Chicagoan who graduated from his hometown\u2019s Columbia College. \u201cI try to bring my faith to my work. Not every movie I do is an explicitly religious film, but it\u2019s always on my mind.\u201d\n\u201cJudas,\u201d of course, is an explicitly religious film, and one that was brought to him by Frank Desiderio, the president of Paulist Productions. Paulist was founded by Father Ellwood \u201cBud\u201d Kieser in 1960 to produce the acclaimed syndicated series \u201cInsight.\u201d For more than four decades, Paulist has continued to produce TV shows and films, the latest being \u201cJudas.\u201d\n\u201cWe\u2019re both involved in various Catholic and ecumenical groups in the entertainment business,\u201d Carner said of Desiderio. \u201cI knew him in those circles. He knew my work and when the picture was ordered for production by ABC, Frank recommended me.\u201d\nCarner got to work, shooting the $5 million movie in Morocco in the summer of 2001. Almost three years later, it will finally air.\n\u201cWe finished the picture, and it was originally going to air during the Easter season in 2002, and it didn\u2019t happen,\u201d Carner said. ABC kept changing its schedule, and \u201cJudas\u201d got pushed further and further back.\nBut when Mel Gibson\u2019s film \u201cThe Passion of the Christ\u201d went into production and then neared release, Carner and friends decided it was high time for ABC to act.\n\u201cWe all went to ABC and suggested that we air \u2018Judas\u2019 during the same time frame because there\u2019s so much tension and interest in Gibson\u2019s film,\u201d Carner said.\nAs Carner put together his directorial vision for the film, he was drawn again and again to the portrayal of Judas\u2014one of the most infamous characters of Christian Scripture.\n\u201cHow does he go through this process in human, emotional terms?\u201d Carner wondered.\nThe role of Judas went to Johnathon Schaech, best known for \u201cThat Thing You Do\u201d with Tom Hanks and \u201cHow to Make an American Quilt.\u201d\n\u201cJohnathon Schaech was a wonderful, wonderful actor,\u201d said Carner. \u201cHe came to the party ready to go.\u201d\nSchaech also had a unique challenge under Carner\u2019s direction.\n\u201cWhat was I concerned about was trying to make Judas understandable without excusing it [the betrayal],\u201d Carner said. He relied not only on Schaech for this task, but also on the script by Tom Fontana, executive producer of \u201cHomicide: Life on the Street\u201d and creator of HBO\u2019s popular \u201cOz.\u201d Fontana also wrote \u201cThe Fourth Wiseman,\u201d another Paulist Production.\nFontana \u201ctakes what little we know of Judas from Scripture and tries to make it understandable,\u201d he said.\nCarner also cast Jonathan Scarfe in the role of Jesus. That was after Carner auditioned a number of other actors.\n\u201cWhat I was worried about was that they would be pious and lifeless,\u201d Carner said. Instead, they came in playing Jesus as angst-ridden and tormented. Eventually, however, he saw Scarfe.\n\u201cHe was the only one who came in and gave a sense of joy, which is the essence of Jesus,\u201d Carner said. \u201cThe message he\u2019s bringing is good news.\u201d\nCarner said he remained keenly aware that this project was risky.\nWhen you make a film with biblical subjects, \u201cYou\u2019re on a high-wire,\u201d he said, placing \u201cThe Greatest Story Ever Told\u201d at one extreme and \u201cThe Last Temptation of Christ\u201d at the other.\n\u201cIf you completely lose your way, you end up doing \u2018Monty Python\u2019s Life of Brian,'\u201d he joked.\nFurthermore, \u201cJudas\u201d deals with issues that have turned Gibson\u2019s \u201cThe Passion\u201d into one of the most controversial films of recent memory.\n\u201cWhen we went into production, we were completely unaware that Gibson was contemplating \u2018The Passion,'\u201d Carner said. In fact, \u201cThe Passion\u201d was shot after \u201cJudas.\u201d\n\u201cWe were not aware that his film was going to be criticized in that area [of Jews\u2019 role in Jesus\u2019 death], but we were conscious of that concern,\u201d Carner said. That concern led the production to ask a rabbi to give input to the process, and Carner said he often deferred to Desiderio on biblical issues.\n\u201cWe had various screenings with different pastors of different faiths to be sure that our film reflected the circumstances that were operative in the crucifixion,\u201d Carner said.\nSome of those circumstances included portraying Judea as a land mired in political struggle, as well as showing the Roman governor Pontius Pilate and the Jewish high priest Caiaphas in charge of their respective realms.\n\u201cIt\u2019s clear that the guilt is not a collective guilt of the Jewish people,\u201d Carner said, but a political situation relating to those two people\u2014Caiaphas and Pilate.\nCarner said he doesn\u2019t know if \u201cJudas\u201d will be criticized like \u201cThe Passion of the Christ.\u201d\n\u201cWe made an effort in that area,\u201d he said of the production\u2019s sense of social responsibility. \u201cWhether that effort is respected and accepted remains to be seen.\u201d\nStay tuned for our review of \u201cJudas,\u201d which airs March 8 (9-11 p.m. ET) on ABC.\nRead our interview with Frank Desiderio.\nAlso read our review of another Paulist Production, \u201cThe Jesus Experience: Christianity Around the World.\u201d\nURL to article: https://www.ethicsdaily.com/walking-a-biblical-high-wire-an-interview-with-charles-carner-cms-3837/",

        "raw_content": "10 Surprising Facts About Contraception\nAmong the 18 types of FDA-approved birth control methods, there may be more than just one good option for you.\n8 Miscarriage Facts Every Woman Should Know\nMore women are choosing long-acting, reversible contraception devices like the IUD.\nThe pill remains American women's favorite choice for contraception.\nThe second most popular form of contraception is female sterilization.\nThe intrauterine device (IUD) is regaining popularity in the United States.\nWhile the Pill is still the most common form of contraception used by American women, the intrauterine device (IUD) is now gaining in popularity, according to a 2015 report from the National Center for Health Statistics, part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). And now, the Affordable Care Act mandates coverage for more birth control options than ever, with no copay. Here are 10 additional facts about contraception that may surprise you.\n1. Most American women 15 to 44 years old use contraception. More than 60 percent of women in this age group use some form of contraception, according to a report of the National Center for Health Statistics, and their No. 1 choice is the Pill.\n2. Young women are less likely to use contraception than older women. About 47 percent of women ages 15 to 24 use birth control. Compare this with 67 percent of women ages 25 to 34 who use birth control, and 70 percent of women 35 and older, according to data from the National Survey of Family Growth published in 2014.\nThat trend concerns Lindsey Longerot, MD, an OB/GYN at the Women's Specialists of Houston at Texas Children\u2019s Pavilion for Women, because, she says, teens and women 15 to 24 \u201cwould likely be impacted the most by an unintended pregnancy.\u201d\n3. Although female sterilization is permanent, it\u2019s popular. Sterilization, tying your tubes, is the second most popular form of contraception among American women. It\u2019s also the top choice for black women over 35, the 2014 report says. The procedure stops fertilization by closing or blocking the fallopian tubes. Still, there is a low risk of ectopic pregnancy after sterilization, warns Dr. Longerot.\n4. The Pill is popular, but it\u2019s not for everyone. The pill is most popular with white, college-educated young women, the survey found. Combination pills with estrogen and progesterone are the most frequent choice. An advantage, Longerot says, is that these can be stopped if a woman wants to get pregnant. Taking the pill can ease symptoms of difficult periods, PMS, and acne, says Linda Rice, a certified nurse midwife at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates in Chelmsford, Massachusetts.\nHowever, birth control pills are not the best choice for every woman, because they have potential side effects and raise health risks. Oral contraceptives must be taken every day, preferably at the same time, which can be challenging. And they raise the risk for a blood clot, according to the National Blood Clot Alliance. Because of the Pill\u2019s health risks, smokers over age 35, and women with a history of breast cancer, should opt for another contraceptive, the CDC says.\n5. The mini-pill could be a better choice for some women. Because the mini-pill contains only progesterone, Rice says, it's a good choice for women who need to avoid estrogen. Possible side effects are irregular or non-existent periods, mood changes, and weight gain. But the progestin-only pills are not for women who have breast cancer, advises the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).\nRELATED: Best and Worst Birth Control Options\n6. Contraceptive patches or rings may be easier to tolerate than pills. These carry the same risks and benefits of the combination pills, Longerot says, but they have a more favorable dosing schedule. \u201cThe patch is replaced weekly, and the ring is replaced monthly, which is a lot less remembering than the daily pill,\u201d says Sally Rafie, PharmD, a pharmacy specialist at the University of California San Diego Health System and a birth control expert.\n7. A progesterone shot is another form of birth control for women. These injections are given in the buttocks or arm four times a year, according to the CDC. Because the shot can affect bone density, it's important to get enough calcium and vitamin D, Dr. Rafie says. In addition, some women have irregular bleeding after the injection, notes ACOG.\n8. IUD use has nearly doubled in recent years. Among women ages 15 to 44, 3.5 percent of women reported using an IUD between 2006 and 2010, but that number rose to 6.4 percent between 2011 and 2013, the most recent report shows.\nIUDs began to fall out of favor in the 1970s when defective devices caused infertility, uterine perforations, and even deaths, according to the National Women\u2019s Health Network. IUDs still carry a small risk for uterine perforation and infection, says Longerot. But today\u2019s devices are much improved, says Rafie. \"It's essentially \u2018get it and forget it\u2019 for a few years at least,\u201d she says. \u201cThey are perfect options for women who are not planning on becoming pregnant for several years.\u201d In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends IUDs for sexually active teens.\n9. The latex male condom is the only method that protects against sexually transmitted disease. \u201cThe benefit of condoms is that they can protect against sexually transmitted infections and are available without a prescription,\u201d Rice says. But condoms alone have a failure rate of about 18 percent, notes the CDC.\n10. The best birth control? The one that\u2019s right for you. Consider your lifestyle, whether you plan to have children, and any medical conditions you have before choosing contraception, Longerot says.",

        "raw_content": "HP Explains Motives Behind $1.6 Billion Offer for 3PAR\nExecutive Vice President Dave Donatelli contends that 3PAR \"is a company that has good technology but does not have the ability to bring it to market,\" and that HP can bring its products to large customers globally.\nHewlett-Packard wants to buy scale-out enterprise storage maker 3PAR to provide more options for large enterprise and midrange customers, and the new products won't overlap with the company's current offerings, Executive Vice President Dave Donatelli told a conference call audience Aug. 23.\nHewlett-Packard, despite already being loaded with one of the largest storage product catalogs in the world, announced earlier in the day that it would enter into a bidding war with Dell by offering $24 per share for 3PAR -- which amounts to enterprise value of $1.6 billion.\nDell on Aug. 16 said it would offer $1.15 billion, or $18 per share, for Fremont, Calif.-based 3PAR.\nDonatelli, who joined HP in May 2009 following a long tenure at EMC, said that \"we believe we have a good opportunity to grow revenue and grow at a very nice margin, which drives our business case. What I would add to it is that we have built up a great track record of doing transactions of this nature.\"\nDonatelli pointed out that since its April 2010 acquisition of networker 3Com for $2.7 billion, HP already has more than 300 proof-of-concept networking projects under way.\n\"I think this is a great analogy for this transaction,\" Donatelli said. \"What a lot of these smaller companies with good technologies have a problem with is that customers want to buy from fewer, larger companies that they trust, and that have global support for them.\n\"Looking at 3Com for a moment, very quickly after the acquisition, we were able to get them into huge accounts globally. That's by taking our scale and marrying that with their technology. From my perspective, a 3PAR transaction is very similar. This is a company that has good technology but does not have the ability to bring it to market.\"\nHP can bring 3PAR's wares to market directly, through channel partners, or through the HP services group, Donatelli said.\nIs 3PAR being overvalued?\nDespite agreement from most analysts that its products are sound, could 3PAR be overvalued? The company's stock sold for under $10 per share for a full year before talk of the acquisition drove it up substantially in the last few days. The stock closed Aug. 23 at $26.09, up $8 -- or a whopping 44 percent -- on the day.\nSome analysts on the conference call were skeptical of HP's offer, which is roughly equal to six times 3PAR's annual sales.\n\"We've been working on this deal for some time, it's been part of an active M&A process for us,\" Donatelli said, specifically avoiding any reference to the history of 3PAR's stock price. \"This is a very methodical approach to the marketplace in growing our offerings.\"\n3PAR originally made its reputation by delivering a scalable, dependable thin-provisioning feature. It is a hot storage property because its clustered architecture is tailor-made for cloud systems that deliver software as a service, and cloud storage systems are in a huge buying trend at this time.\nHP already has a scale-out acquisition in iSCSI storage specialist Lefthand Networks, which it bought in October 2008 for $360 million. The Lefthand acquisition mirrored the 2007 pickup of iSCSI storage maker EqualLogic by Dell, which now appears to be challenging HP for taking over 3PAR.\nDonatelli said, 3PAR and Lefthand offer different takes on large-scale enterprise storage, far apart enough to touch different sectors of the overall market.\nHP made the original offer to buy 3PAR a few weeks ago, Donatelli revealed. The Aug. 23 offer is the second one -- sandwiched around Dell's Aug. 16 bid -- that the Palo Alto, Calif.-based IT company has put on the table.\nPrevious HP Enters Bidding War with Dell for 3PAR\nNext Iomega Moving All New Portable Storage Drives to USB...",

        "raw_content": "A command to obey\n\ufffdLet each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.\ufffd (Philippians 2:4 NKJV)\nGod designed human life with a value. The value is that only a human life can bring glory to God. The prime area through which we can bring glory to God is by obeying the Bible. Here, we see a great command to be obeyed: Look for the interests of others also. In this busy world, who has the time for looking for others\ufffd interests? What will we lose if we not do so? Friend, if we do not obey the Bible, we have lost everything. So we must take time to develop mutual understanding. Understanding each others\ufffd interests will bring a great reformation in the Christian community. The reason is that through obeying Philippians 2:4, we get a clean mindset about the fellow-believers around us. How can we understand each other without knowing each others\ufffd interests? So it is a basic responsibility for each one of us to care for each others\ufffd interests and thus develop unity in the Church.\nHow can we look out for the interests of others? Many of us are pliable to people whose interests match with ours. How easily do we get influenced by them! But, we must know, through this verse, that we must respect even those interests which we do not like. For example, if a person aspires to climb a mountain, I must not interfere with his aspiration in an opposing manner, even though I may fear that it requires lots of practice and courage. Many courageous attempts are avoided due to discouraging words like: Do not attempt, it\ufffds dangerous! etc. I am not promoting stunts here, but just want to say, if someone wants to do some brave act, let us allow him if we are sure he has gained the capability through rigorous training. Next example, if someone wants to buy a joke book, we should not say that reading jokes is a waste of time even if we may not have interest in jokes. In fact, the truth is, reading good jokes can make one be relieved, for some instant. The ability to look out for others\ufffd interests is a gift from God.\nSo, how is your life today? Do you have the time and willingness to have concern for the interests of others? If so, I assure, God will use you mightily for the blessings of all those around you. If we have an unselfish nature and try to correlate with each other by having a clean mindset about each others\ufffd desires and interests, we, Christians, can show to the world what unity really means. We thus can be perfect representatives of God\ufffds plan and purpose behind designing human life. It was designed in such a way that people have the ability to be concerned for each other. But, sad news, most of us are concerned only for ourselves. It is time now for all of us to change our attitude about life. Do not just strive and thrive personally, but encourage others\ufffd interests so that they can get the necessary prompting to do all the good they can and thrive in life. Leading a life as this is very much needed in pleasing God and to bring glory to His name.\nHave you ever wondered what can inspire us to have such an attitude? If we think in depth about the welfare of society, for the success of others, for God\ufffds purpose for each one to be accomplished, if only we take a little time to consider this, we can get the prompting from God to obey Philippians 2:4. Let us never stop others from doing the good they like, no matter how much far our mindset be from theirs. Remember, we have a responsible life on earth, a life that must contain the value described in this article.",

And this is what I found - you are going to love the role Venus has played in their lives.\nSo, what does astrology say about F.R.I.E.N.D.S\nChandler Bing...\nHe was my favourite by far. More than his words it was his body language, wasn\u2019t it? I think I owe my sense of humor to his character. I was lucky to find his birth details on astrodatabank (he was born 19th August 1969 at 4 47 am in Massachusetts) and ran it on farfaraway. I was expecting him to have a very strong 3rd house and a 3rd sign (Gemini) placement \u2013 both of which are connected with communication.\nGuess what! He has Jupiter in the third house and the description on farfaraway says he's extremely smart, witty, and cheerful. But what sets him apart is Venus. His Venus sign is Gemini, and since Venus plays the most important role for an acting career, this is a real jackpot. Look at what his Venus\u2019 placement say about him. Not only Venus in Gemini makes him extremely charming, and playful with words but also Venus is in the 12th house makes him a natural.\nIt says: \"He knows how to make people smile\" - Sounds about right, isn't it?\nI also noticed he is a Cancer ascendant that makes him number #4 (read more on this here) that makes a bit emotional, having a roundish appearance, and someone who shouldn\u2019t get married early, which kinda fits, no?\nDid you know? Chandler, the character, was born sometime in April as references made about his birthday in friends. I\u2019ll tell you later how I know this.\nRachel Green...\nRachel was born on 11th Feb 1969 at 10 22 pm in Los Angeles. So she was probably the best looking co-star, wasn't she? The two most attractive people in the world are either #5 and #7 - #5 are more of a head turner whereas #7 are just beautiful. So which one do you think Rachel is? Of course #7 \u2013 that means she is a Libra ascendant ruled by Venus. And her acting career is all about Venus which is placed in the sign of Pisces, which makes her a natural just like Chandler. And since Venus is sitting next to Rahu it further enhances her creative ability. Another interesting thing is the placement of Saturn in the 6th house, as per trick #14 \u2013 these people are either involved in social service or hospitality. It is no surprise that she been into social service for quite some time now.\nI also noticed that her Moon sign is Scorpio and is sitting next to Mars \u2013 both of which were NOT good news for her relationship with her mother. So I googled it and found she had an extremely bad relationship with her mother calling her...\n....\u201cThis is my last chunk of disease in my life - my mom.\u201d- sorry!\nAnd if you look at her time periods she was going Venus\u2019 time period at the beginning of friends in 1994 and later transitioned into the time period of Sun from 1994- 2002, which is when she was recognized for her work. I\u2019ve never heard anyone going through a time period of Sun and not getting noticed for their work. Check out which time period are you running at this link\nDid you know? Rachel mentioned in one of the episodes that her birthday was 5th May. And I said I\u2019ll tell you about Chandler\u2019s birthday, so do you remember that episode where everyone was planning a surprise birthday party for Rachel a month in advance. And Rachel said \u201cthanks guys, but Chandler\u2019s birthday is before me\u201d so definitely Chandler was born somewhere between 5th April \u2013 5th May \u2013 so yeah! I\u2019ve been watching friends too much.\njoey tribbiani...\nJoey was born 25th July 1967 at 4 18 am in Massachusetts. He may have portrayed a dumb character but his birth chart suggests he is extremely smart. And just like Chandler, I was expecting him to have a very strong third house and third sign (Gemini) placement. So let\u2019s talk about his Gemini placement. He has Gemini in the first house that makes him #3 \u2013 they are ones who love to talk and you never feel bored in their company. And he has Mercury sitting in Gemini making him probably the wittiest amongst all of the friends but also a bit of a scatterbrain.\nAnd guess what he has Venus in the third house. Not only is Venus in the third house but also in the sign of Leo \u2013 you are going to love this description. The third house Venus makes him extemely blessed with words and large hearted at giving out compliments. And Venus is Leo is what gives him that magnetic personality - this is a really powerful placement.\nDid you know? Joey\u2019s birthday was never referenced in any of the episodes or even celebrated \u2013 perhaps his character was naturally so attractive that the makers didn\u2019t feel the need to throw a spotlight on him\nWhat do Chandler & Joey have in common...\nBoth of them have Saturn in the house of Career and both of them started their career with friends in the time period of Saturn. So despite their cheerful characters and natural ability, they would have worked really hard at their craft because of Saturn.(more on this, check out trick #16)\nphoebe buffay...\nPhoebe was bor on 30th July 1963 at 4 37 am in Encino, California. She is an another one with a very strong third house and third sign (Gemini) placement. She has Rahu in the 1st house in the sign of Gemini that makes her #3 just like Joey. But Rahu makes her a bit unconventional. And she has Mercury in the third house that makes her extremely witty. But she doesn\u2019t have the most gifted placement for Venus, which was extremely well placed for Chandler, Joey, and Rachel. Her Venus was placed in the 2nd house in the sign of Cancer, which is an ok placement but since her Venus was sitting next to Sun that did give her creative ability some impetus. She started her career with friends during the time period of Mercury and it\u2019s safe to say that Mercury has played an important part in her life.\nAnother interesting thing about her birth chart was the placement of Ketu in the house of marriage. In general, I\u2019ve found people with this placement finding it difficult to find the right person but Phoebe is an exception and she\u2019s been happily married since 1995. And since she did spend the early years of her marriage during the time period of Ketu, I sense a past-life connection in her marriage, although I try not to talk about past life in astrology, but I am making an exception in her case.\nDid you know? Phoebe, the character, mentioned she was Feb 16th to her half-brother Frank jr in one the episodes.\nMonica & Ross\nIt was difficult to find an accurate time of birth for both Monica and Ross. But I did run their birth details on farfaraway. In such cases, I plug in the time of birth to be 12 noon and I only study the placement of signs and not for houses, which are mapped to the exact time of birth. It was no surprise for me to see Monica having Sun, Venus, and Rahu all in the sign of Gemini making her extremely talented, but not necessarily as gifted as Chandler or Rachel. Ross, on the other hand, had Sun, Venus, and Ketu together that did indicate a natural talent but not as extraordinary as others. I would have loved to study their birth charts in more detail had their birth times were known. If you know their birth time send it to me and I\u2019ll have a go.\nDid you know? In one of the episodes Ross mentions his birthday to be in December but later in one of the episodes in season 8, he says his birthday is on October 18 \u2013 so that just means I've been watching friends quite closely! And Monica mentioned in an episode in May that she is 25 years & 13 months old so based on that she was born between April to March close to when Chandler, the character, was born.\nSo, who was the best?\nLastly, if you ask me, who amongst the 6 FRIENDS was most likely to make a big name (without me knowing who I was reading), I would have picked Joey \u2013 hands down. Joey has Venus in the sign of Leo and in the third house of communication, which is a really powerful placement - and perhaps that\u2019s why he\u2019s the only one to carry his character forward in his TV series \u2013 \u201cJoey\u201d\nThanks for reading :) You can check your astrology story at this link",

        "raw_content": "Steam Hauler\nWaiting for its Second Chance, a Scale Minneapolis Makes the Rounds on the Back of a Restored IHC\nJoe C. Steinhagen\nJoe Steinhagen's scale Minneapolis on parade, riding on the back of his immaculate 1952 IHC L150. The Minneapolis, modeled on a 20 HP simple, is set to be restored soon.\nStanley Skatberg of Alexandria, Minn., built this little -scale Minneapolis in the early 1960s. It was featured in an issue of Iron-Men Album around the same time, and I saw it run at his shop in the mid-1970s. That was before the steam bug bit me, and all I thought when I saw it was, 'now that's cute,' never dreaming I would own it one day.\nAfter Stanley died in the early 1990s I heard his family was selling the little steamer, but they wanted quite a sum for it. Some are worth top dollar, but this one, with a boiler that had already been condemned by the state of Minnesota, was not.\nI lost track of it for many years, and then I found it setting in a junk pile in Nelson, Minn. For the next few years, every time I was in Nelson I visited the engine. Finally, when I noticed it wouldn't turn over anymore, I decided it was time to do something with it.\nAfter a nation-wide search I found Stanley's son living in Colorado, and I purchased the engine from him for considerably less than the original asking price.\nAlthough the boiler was bad the engine was complete, and I was able to free the engine up and get everything working. Stanly had mounted a full-size Marsh steam pump to put water in the little steamer's boiler. It didn't fit the engine's scale, and I mentioned to Jim Briden in Fargo, N.D., that I would be willing to sell it if he knew anybody who needed one. As it was, Jim knew a fellow from Austria who was restoring a Case engine and was looking for just such a pump.\nContacts were made, and two fellows from Austria flew over here on a Labor Day weekend, took in a steam show in Wisconsin, then went to Rollag, Minn., and following Rollag swung through Alexandria and picked up the pump. While they were here I showed them around the area, including a visit to our little threshing show at Rose City, Minn. After showing them around we were driving out the long driveway of the show grounds as the neighbor's horses were running in the pasture right along side. One fellow said to the other, 'Hmm, good sausage.' And they were serious!\nAfter thoroughly cleaning the engine, followed by a new coat of paint, I mounted it on the back of my restored 1952 International Harvester L150 flatbed truck for parades and such. It is a lot easier than taking a full-size engine, water wagon and wood wagon to a parade.\nThis little engine is going to be a future restoration project. I'll have to buy a different boiler for it and go from there.\nContact steam enthusiast Joe C. Steinhagen at: 11980 Kluver Addition Road S.E., Alexandria, MN 56308.",

        "raw_content": "Irwin meets with department officials on a range of issues\nDUP Newry & Armagh Assemblyman William Irwin MLA has met with Department officials in Dundonald House this week to raise a number of issues affecting farmers across the province.\nIssues covered at the meeting included the significant delay in processing FBIS applications and the hot topic of Bovine TB.\nMr Irwin described the meeting as \u2018useful and timely\u2019 and thanked the Departmental Permanent Secretary and his colleagues for taking the time to discuss a range of important issues affecting agriculture at this time.\nHe added: \u201cI used this important opportunity to discuss the concerns farmers have brought to me on the Farm Business Improvement Scheme and in particular the significant delays on applications, some of which have been in the system in excess of ten months with applicants still unaware if they will be successful.\n\u201cI impressed on the officials the fact that farmers who find themselves in this position are frustrated and rightly so, after spending considerable sums of money in getting planning permissions and paying for the services of consultants to help complete the applications. I expressed my concerns that only 20 approvals have been issued to date out of 150 applications that made it through to the assessment stage.\n\u201cOfficials took on board my concerns and accepted that the process has been slower than anticipated but assured me that every effort is being made to issue as many approvals as possible in the next few weeks. I made the point to the officials that lessons must be learned from Tranche 1 and not repeated if and when Tranche 2 is rolled out,\u201d he added.\n\u201cI also had the opportunity to discuss the issue of Bovine TB and the need for a much more proactive approach to drive down incidence rates. TB incidence rates are at almost 10%, the highest level for some years. We also look at other regions whereby wildlife carriers have been effectively controlled and this has resulted in continued downward trends. It is clear when we look at statistics here in Northern Ireland the very obvious rising trend in incidence rates requires a more robust approach and wildlife carriers should be one of the main focuses,\u201d he added.",

        "raw_content": "Dirtiest Hotels of 2009: A Lesson in Sparking Curiosity\nI got a broadcast email one day from TripAdvisor. I was just about to delete it when I noticed the subject line: The Dirtiest Hotels of 2009. That gave me pause. I read some of the quotes from people who\u2019d stayed in these hotels: One said: \u201cI have 30 bites from bugs in Room 919.\u201d And I had to click through. I had no choice. I had to know what the hotels were\u2013and had I stayed at any of them? Are any of them in my hometown? You got me, TripAdvisor.\nThis ad worked because it made me curious. And believe it or not, there\u2019s actually a theory of how you can generate curiosity. It\u2019s from George Loewenstein at Carnegie Mellon University. He said curiosity comes from a gap between what we know and what we want to know. And if you make people aware that the gap exists, it causes a kind of itch\u2013it\u2019s unpleasant. To make that itch go away, we\u2019ll do some work to find the answer. TripAdvisor opened a gap in mind that I had to close\u2013I had to know what those hotels were, and I was willing to work to get the answer. I suspect their click-thru rates on that ad were crazy.\nThere\u2019s a book with a title that\u2019s a curiosity gap: Why Do Men Have Nipples? 10 seconds ago, I doubt you were wondering about that, but once you\u2019ve been focused on the issue, you might get curious. The book Freakonomics also does this brilliantly. On the cover you see a lot of questions like, \u201cWhat do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common?\u201d Or, \u201cWhy do so many drug dealers live with their moms?\u201d And all the sudden, you find yourself flipping through the book for the answer.\nEven a little bit of effort to create curiosity gaps can pay off. My brother and I got a note from the budget director of a church in Mountain View, and he said he\u2019d used a curiosity gap to attract people to the church\u2019s finance meeting. He asked a few questions like, \u201cHow much do you think our church spends to host coffee-hour after services in a year?\u201d He said he\u2019d answer the questions at the next meeting. Attendance doubled, and he was thrilled.\nIf you want to learn more about curiosity gaps\u2014including the link to the 9 dirtiest hotels in the USA, check out the resources below.\nGeorge Loewenstein is the behavioral economist who formulated the \u201cgap theory\u201d of curiosity\u2013here\u2019s his original paper on the topic. In Made to Stick, we talk about the gap theory in our chapter on Unexpectedness. (For teachers, we created a free file called \u201cTeaching that Sticks\u201d that talks a good bit about curiosity. See the Resources page of our Web site.) Lots of curiosity gaps will be used on you in the book Freakonomics, which you\u2019ve probably already read. In this Powell\u2019s blog entry, I address the curiosity-gap-minded question, \u201cAre cats left-pawed or right-pawed?\u201d Here\u2019s the tale of the church finance director. And last but not least, here\u2019s the link to TripAdvisor\u2019s Dirtiest Hotels.",

        "raw_content": "4 Keys To Making Pot Mainstream\nThe industry is booming and legalization could be around the corner. It\u2019s time for cannabis to grow up and start marketing itself like any other business.\nGilles Mingasson/Getty Images\nBy Christine Arena 7 minute Read\nIt is called the \u201cApple Store of weed,\u201d and for good reason. SPARC is one of San Francisco\u2019s premier cannabis boutiques, and I\u2019m there conducting field research. I have a deep curiosity about the consumer attitudes and behaviors shaping this soon-to-be $11 billion industry, as effectively harnessing them can mean the difference between success and failure for many new pot-based startups\u2014and wellness for millions of prescription drug users.\nProperly utilized, cannabis serves a higher purpose in our society, potentially improving millions of lives.\nFirst and foremost, let me come out and say that I am a cannabis \u201cpatient,\u201d as we are called. I have been using cannabis to control chronic pain for almost 15 years. I\u2019ve spent time talking to medical professionals, touring cutting-edge R&D labs and grow facilities, testing products from tinctures to flowers and various edibles, and learning directly from experts about the latest cellular research and neurobiological approaches to helping control ailments including migraines, cancer, anxiety, Alzheimer\u2019s, and post-traumatic stress.\nTake the pain relief category, for instance. Did you know that Americans now consume more than 84% of the entire worldwide supply of oxycodone and almost 100% of hydrocodone opioids? Some 1.9 million U.S. citizens are medically classified as \u201caddicted\u201d to prescription pain relievers, while 47,055 died from lethal prescription drug overdoses in 2014 alone.\nMr. Green via Shutterstock\nOn the other hand, states with medical cannabis laws had a 24.8% lower mean annual opioid overdose mortality rate compared with states without medical cannabis laws. That\u2019s almost 12,000 so-called potheads like me who didn\u2019t die last year because their states allowed them to seek a safer alternative.\nMy personal experience with cannabis and the industry behind it has transformed me from a patient into a full-fledged advocate. In my view, cannabis is much more than a stoner\u2019s pastime or a vice replacement for tobacco and alcohol (though it\u2019s definitely those things, too). It is also a cause worth fighting for. Properly utilized, it serves a higher purpose in our society, potentially saving and improving millions of lives. And yet, as much as people love to bet on \u201cgreen rush\u201d hype, serious obstacles stand in the way of mainstream acceptance and adoption.\nFor one thing, the \u201cgateway drug\u201d stigma still exists, even though the latest scientific research proves that such a perception is wrong. Then there\u2019s the anti-bud lobby, which is generously funded by pharmaceutical companies that sell opiates. Finally, there\u2019s a lot of federal red tape tying up cannabis research and making legalization harder for states to achieve.\nIndeed, the cannabis movement is fighting an incredibly high-stakes battle. So it\u2019s up to the cannabis industry\u2014growers, researchers, product developers, budtenders, store owners, campaigners, and patients like me\u2014to break through resistance with a message that more people can personally relate to and rally behind.\nIt\u2019s up to the cannabis industry to break through resistance with a message that more people can personally relate to and rally behind.\nAs a communications professional, I know that the success of any social issue campaign requires an intimate understanding of the target audience. So I can\u2019t help but wonder: Who are the cannabis users that will tip the scales toward mainstream adoption and legalization? What prevailing attitudes drive their current decisions and loyalties? How passionately do they feel about cannabis as a cause, and how can we best activate them en masse?\nThese are the questions I need answers to. Hence, my field research.\nThe patient experience at SPARC is impressive. The space is occupied by elegant cases, warm lighting, and communal tables. They serve tea; they provide Storz & Bickel vaporizers. The environment feels clean, cozy, yet medically oriented. As I sat there inhaling the pungent atmosphere, I observed the steady flow of patients walking in and out, noting that the vast majority weren\u2019t the stoner twentysomethings or the degenerates that GOP leaders portray in speeches, but working professionals over the age of 35. Several were in their sixties. Almost half were female; the majority shopped alone.\nThe tremendously knowledgeable and attentive budtenders had serious influence over what brands and products people bought, much more so than in the average pharmacy, coffeehouse, or neighborhood bar. And unlike with alcohol or prescription drugs, cannabis patients seem to want to experiment with a range of different treatment options, finding the combination that works best for them. Therefore, patients took their time and asked a lot of questions. Each transaction lasted approximately eight minutes, and in those eight minutes, patients were curious to learn and open to suggestions. Patients spent liberally, often walking out with a month\u2019s supply.\nIt\u2019s not a scientific study, but my field observations, backstage tours, and expert interviews lead me to the conclusion that much of the cannabis industry\u2014in particular, the organizations and brands hoping to inspire mainstream support\u2014need to take a different approach to building and promoting their cause. Much has been written about how cannabis is now a lifestyle, not just a substance, and should be marketed as such. In light of how important I believe cannabis is to public wellness and well-being, I\u2019d take that ethos several steps further.\nHere, in my view, are the keys to cutting past the stigma, countering the anti-legalization lobby, and making cannabis mainstream:\nFlickr user Dank Depot\n1: Harness The Power Of Women\nWomen need cannabis more than any other group. They are the industry\u2019s tipping point.\nIf you look more broadly at the consumer market, you will notice that women wield outsized influence. They are the world\u2019s most powerful consumers, driving 70% to 80% of all purchasing decisions. Women also consume the vast majority of opiates sold today. They comprise the majority of the nation\u2019s prescription drug addicts and are at a significantly greater danger for accidental overdose. Despite these facts, most cannabis brands skew masculine. Their packaging, brand names, and delivery mechanisms cater to the interests, preferences, and consumption patterns of white male users\u2014\u201dconnoisseurs,\u201d I\u2019ve heard them called. Advocacy groups often make the same mistake, marketing primarily to male doctors. Knowing how to better reach and resonate with a female audience is integral to winning this war. Women need cannabis more than any other group. They are the industry\u2019s tipping point.\n2: Address Aesthetics As A Primary Concern\nHaving interacted with many of the high-end products on the market today, I can tell you that aesthetics are not the primary focus.\nVisual cues and user experience drive interest and consumer loyalty much more so than today\u2019s cannabis brands seem to realize. Having interacted with many of the high-end products on the market today, I can tell you that aesthetics such as packaging, naming, and brand imagery are not the primary focus. Some of the most expensive flower products on the market have bewildering names such as \u201cCannatonic,\u201d \u201cExodus,\u201d and \u201cGorilla Glue,\u201d while popular consumables look more like personal lubricants and hippy candy than premium medicine. It\u2019s a mistake to believe that product quality will speak for itself in an industry flooded with quality choices. The right aesthetic cues can make a tremendous difference, both in terms of encouraging trial and changing public perceptions about the industry overall. More cannabis brands would do well to keep in mind what I said about women, lose the Jimi Hendrix references, and remember that we are trying to spark mass brand reconsideration here. Dress accordingly.\nFlickr user Jewelz\n3: Educate People About Why Cannabis Matters\nWhy does the world need cannabis now more than ever? A shocking number of cannabis brands and organizations leave this story out of the communications equation, even though it is by far the most compelling reason why people should buy products and support the cause. It is a natural antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective agent, which is why it helps treat such a wide range of ailments. More people need to know the facts, and thankfully some brands are helping to lead the charge in that arena. Alta California Botanicals and Care by Design both do an exceptional job of educating consumers about the medical uses and healing properties of cannabis. So if you\u2019re in this space to make a difference, take a cue from these two companies and share your research and knowledge with the world.\nFlickr user Manuel\n4: Inspire People To Take Action\nCannabis isn\u2019t just an industry, it\u2019s also a crusade, which is why using provocative content and storytelling is a mission-critical move. I am reminded of the filmmaker and environmental activist Shaun MacGillivray, who released a documentary he shot in the Arctic in 2012 featuring a mother polar bear and her two cubs. Rather than regurgitating depressing facts and figures about climate change the way so many activist groups do, MacGillivray moved the audience to action. Over 25 million people saw MacGillivray\u2019s film, including policy makers and world leaders. While you don\u2019t have to produce a feature-length film or spend millions to make an impression, you do have to take a creative approach to connecting with people on an emotional level. Make them feel how important this issue is\u2014not just to them, but to all humanity.\nIt is striking to consider how cannabis might be the next same sex marriage. Just look at how quickly it has evolved from an interesting topic of cocktail party conversation into the fastest-growing industry in America. Note how, all of a sudden, 58% of Americans support legalization, and how deftly the issue is leveraged in the 2016 presidential race. At this point, it is difficult to imagine that any serious business or political leader hasn\u2019t considered the implications, or at least spent time getting high on the possibilities.\nChristine Arena is an award-winning author, brand strategist and trend forecaster.

Adidas is the only major athletic shoemaker with IP attorneys based full time in China.\n\u201cThe Olympics will be the ultimate test when it comes to counterfeit goods. All sponsors of the Games are stepping up their enforcement efforts now\u2013or they should be, because they\u2019ll get hit more than nonsponsors, that\u2019s for sure.\nI am very proud to say that, right now, if you go to any large or midsize city in China, you can\u2019t find any fake Adidas. We want to keep it that way. Our strategy is to raid wholesalers, or even the retailers. Typically, companies raid the counterfeiting factories. That gets a big splash in the paper, but it\u2019s a waste of money. At the factory, shoes may be worth only a few dollars a pair. But at the wholesale and retail levels, they\u2019re worth a lot more. That\u2019s where you can make a much bigger financial dent. There\u2019s an incentive for them not to buy fakes anymore. We ordered more than 1,000 raids last year. We\u2019ll probably start seeing Olympic fakes surface six months or so before the Games. We\u2019ll be hiring extra security to watch for them. For now, we\u2019ve found a way to deter the problem. I am a strong believer in prevention. Most lawyers are too bogged down with crime and punishment.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Compounding Pharmacist Pleads Guilty to Paying Kickbacks for Referrals, Health Care Fraud Offenses\nCAMDEN, NJ\u2014A pharmacist with a compounding pharmacy in Lakewood, New Jersey, admitted today to paying tens of thousands of dollars in cash bribes to physicians for referring pain cream prescriptions, defrauding health care benefit programs out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.\nThe president and pharmacist-in-charge of Prescriptions R U.S.\u2014Vladimir Kleyman, 43, of Lakewood, New Jersey\u2014pleaded guilty to an information charging him with conspiracy to pay kickbacks and to commit health care fraud. Kleyman, who originally was charged by complaint in January of 2014, entered his guilty plea before U.S. District Judge Joseph H. Rodriguez in Camden federal court.\nFrom January 2013 through January 2014, Kleyman provided another individual with tens of thousands of dollars in cash and checks to provide bribes to physicians for referring prescriptions for a compounded pain cream to Prescriptions R US. Compounding pharmacies prepare medication, using different types and dosages of drugs, in order to provide more personalized medications for patients. The compounded pain cream prepared by Prescriptions R U.S. in this case contains several components, including ketamine (a Schedule III non-narcotic), lidocaine and diclofenac.\nDuring his guilty plea proceeding, Kleyman admitted that in a series of meetings in November and December 2013 alone, he arranged for the middleman to receive more than $40,000 in cash or checks with the understanding it would be used to pay bribes for the referral of pain cream prescriptions.\nKleyman also admitted he knew certain health insurance carriers, including federal health care benefit programs, did not cover compounded pain cream, but he nevertheless dispensed the pain cream to these patients and obtained payment from their insurance carriers by falsely representing the pain cream to be other covered items. Kleyman also acknowledged he defrauded health insurance carriers by making false and misleading representations about the quantity of the pain cream that he dispensed and the frequency with which he dispensed it. As a result, private insurance payors paid the pharmacy hundreds of thousands of dollars.\nThe conspiracy count with which Kleyman is charged carries a maximum potential penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. The government is also seeking Kleyman\u2019s forfeiture of any proceeds derived from his offense. Sentencing is currently scheduled for Jan. 20, 2015.\nU.S. Attorney Fishman credited special agents of the FBI, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Aaron T. Ford in Newark; the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Thomas O\u2019Donnell; and IRS\u2013Criminal Investigation, under the direction of Acting Special Agent in Charge Jonathan D. Larsen, with the ongoing investigation.\nThe government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jane H. Yoon and Senior Litigation Counsel Andrew Leven of the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office Health Care and Government Fraud Unit in Newark.\nDefense counsel: Alain Jeff Ifrah, Esq., Washington",

It\u2019s fantastic to see our 2015 MiMs working in 94 companies across 31 countries\u201d, said Lara Berkowitz, Executive Director, Career Centre, London Business School.\nOf the 96% who accepted job offers within three months of graduating, 40% accepted jobs in the consulting sector, while 35% accepted roles in finance. 25% of students entered into corporate sector roles. This included 11% of graduates joining the technology, media and telecoms sector.\n\u201cThe most noticeable trend in recruitment this year was the number of students accepting jobs in the consulting sector. This has increased from 31% the previous year\u201d, said Lara Berkowitz. \u201cFirms such as Boston Consulting Group and McKinsey increased their LBS MiM hires from four and five last year, to 11 and seven respectively this year.\n\u201cOf those students who accepted roles within the finance sector, 18% went into investment banking. However, we have seen a slight reallocation from diversified financial services toward the buy-side, with 10% of the class going into investment management compared to 5% last year.\u201d\nOf the 94 companies that hired MiM students from London Business School, 21 of those hired two or more students. The top three recruiters are Boston Consulting Group, Goldman Sachs and McKinsey.\nThe latest employment figures show the UK as the most popular destination, with approximately half (49%) of graduates accepting roles in the UK. The rest of Europe excluding the UK (23%) and Asia (17%) were the second and third most popular destinations for graduates.\nLara Berkowitz says: \u201cGiven more than half of students typically pursue careers outside of their country of study, London Business School stands out. Almost half of our graduates choose to stay in the UK, most staying specifically in London.\u201d\n2015 also saw an increase in overall salaries, with the average salary rising more than 4%, from \u00a336,295 to \u00a337,890.\n\u201cThe increase in salaries is largely driven by a 10.4% increase in the average consulting salary\u201d, reports Lara Berkowitz.\n\u201cIt has been another great year and we are proud of what our MiM students have achieved. We are excited by the growth of our \u201cearly career\u201d programme portfolio, with the launch of the Global Masters in Management this year and the upcoming launch of the Masters in Financial Analysis in August 2016.\u201d\nPrevious Article Alliance Manchester Business School partners with BAE Systems to deliver new project leadership programme\nNext Article New research shows regulatory tools in financial sector not fit for purpose",

        "raw_content": "Wisdom in the Wake of Libert\u00e9\nby Jeffrey A. Smith 11 . 2 . 12\nA familiar charge by critics of today\u0092s Church is the accusation that John Paul II and Benedict XVI have reacted against or \u0093betrayed\u0094 the balance Vatican II struck between individual liberty and Christian tradition. A counter-revolution is even said to be afoot, with not only theological progressivism as its target but, even more darkly, democracy, liberty, and modernity.\nIn his recent and final book Catholicism and Democracy , the late Cambridge scholar \u00c9mile Perreau-Saussine attempts to defuse that anger by presenting a long view of modern Church history. He advances the thesis that the French Revolution determined the outcomes of both Vatican I (1869-1870) and Vatican II (1962-1965), and that \u0093the adaptation of the church to the democratic world order came in two stages, at the two councils.\u0094 Yet the critics\u0092 \u0093fear of . . . counter-revolution makes sense only if Vatican II marked some great break with the past.\u0094 But there never was such a break. Instead, the two councils \u0093taken together\u0094 represented \u0093a coherent Vatican reform.\u0094 In that light, the Church\u0092s recent de-emphasis of Vatican II should be viewed as the steadying application of wisdom within a changing modern world.\nIn 1791 French revolutionaries set down the Civil Constitution of the Clergy, assigning all French citizens a right to vote in elections for parish priests and bishops. The intention was to fuse popular sovereignty and France\u0092s nationalist Catholicism, so that the new democratic state might benefit from the revival and harnessing of the older, typically aristocratic tradition.\nIn any event, neither the Church in Rome nor many of the French Catholics who had accepted the Revolution could stand for this. They objected that the Civil Constitution, which empowered non-Catholics to participate in the governing of the French church, had crossed a line. It also excluded non-citizens, leaving the pope himself with no say at all in that governance. Nationalist spirit could not blot out the Constitution\u0092s anti-Catholic hues. Leading French Catholics thus began to claim that the Revolution\u0092s fundamental commitment to democracy was incompatible with the liberal freedom of religion it had earlier upheld. The inability of the Gallicanist state to co-opt Catholicism\u0092s social energy exposed a tension inherent in liberal democracy: between the people empowered as a sovereign whole, on one hand, and those partial societies of individuals which diversify the nation, on the other.\nBy the late 1790s the medieval tradition of ultramontanism was being revived by Joseph de Maistre and other French Catholic intellectuals. They urged their co-religionists to look ultra montes \u201dthat is, \u0093beyond the mountains\u0094\u201dto the papacy in Rome as the only legitimate source of religious and temporal authority. The \u0093Counter-Revolution\u0094 had begun.\nPerreau-Saussine shows that ultramontanism transcended its own political theology inasmuch as it shared and helped to promote the rational orientation of political philosophy. Maistre may have viewed the Revolution as God\u0092s punishment for a sinful France, but he also reasoned carefully about the dangers of the new democratic statism. In the past the French church\u0092s established influence in political life had diffused \u0093a sense of moral limits,\u0094 even during the heyday of the Old Regime. But in the new order, \u0093now . . . everything comes down to force.\u0094 Modern secularism thus posed a far greater risk of domestic tyranny or even totalitarianism than any Catholic monarch ever had.\nChanging political circumstances altered political ideals over the next seventy years, such that pro-Catholic thinkers such as F\u00e9licit\u00e9 de Lamennais gradually began to endorse liberalism\u0092s doctrine of religious liberty as a way of providing safe harbor for the Church\u0092s social influence within a French state that was no longer officially Catholic. In Perreau-Saussine\u0092s words, the new generation of thinkers \u0093traded in reactionary ultramontanism for liberal ultramontanism.\u0094\nIt was liberal ultramontanism, and not a neo-medieval commitment to papal absolutism, that informed the Declaration of Papal Infallibility at Vatican I. As evidence Perreau-Saussine mentions the weighty influence of Cardinal Manning, who \u0093saw papal infallibility as the way . . . to release the church from the grip\u0094 of secular statism, as well as the papal allocution of July 20, 1871, which deemed it \u0093a pernicious error to claim that infallibility reasserts a right to depose sovereigns.\u0094 The real purpose of the Declaration was to distinguish and to keep apart the political and the theological domains.\nThus understood, Vatican I still typifies one of \u0093the two poles between which the Catholic Church oscillates in the age of democracy.\u0094 It is not a position of reaction against democratic change. Rather it involves the recognition that the modern Church can now be only one society among many, and that its distinctness in this sense occasionally demands accommodation for sake of self-protection. Consequently, the Church must be able to clearly distinguish (and separate, if need be) itself from the broader culture.\nVatican II established the other \u0093pole\u0094 for the Church in the democratic age: a position that explicitly recognizes \u0093the merits of democracy and liberalism\u0094 in and of themselves. The spectacle of twentieth-century totalitarian movements led the Church to resolve to act in the larger world, against political messianism and in support of political moderation. In doing so, according to Perreau-Saussine, Vatican II relied in part on the seminal work of another French thinker, Tocqueville, who suggested that Catholicism could flourish when it is not a state religion, and that democracy and pluralism could deliver real benefits to faith itself.\nRecent anger over the supposed \u0093betrayal\u0094 of Vatican II has thus arisen from a mistake, according to Perreau-Saussine. Progressive critics presume there to be an opposition of the two councils, when in fact they are only two ends of a continuum of Vatican reform. Postconciliar orthodoxy, then, does not seek to critique liberal democracy from a re-emergent anti-liberal vantage point. It merely moves back toward the Vatican I end of the continuum, in order to protect both revealed truth and modernity\u201dagainst modernity itself.\nCatholicism and Democracy inaugurates a much-needed effort to recount the history of Catholic political ideas in the democratic age. Sadly, this fine book is also Perreau-Saussine\u0092s final work, as the professor passed away at the age of thirty-seven in 2010. It is to be hoped that its posthumous publication will inspire others to pick up the important thread that he has so brightly illuminated.\nJeffrey A. Smith is tutor and the NEH Chair in Modern Thought at St. John\u0092s College, Annapolis, MD .\n\u00c9mile Perreau-Saussine, Catholicism and Democracy\nArticles by Jeffrey A. Smith",

It is typically sung at the position of attention as a gesture of respect, but is also used as a toast during formal events, such as the birthday ball and other ceremonies.\nThe music is from the Gendarmes' Duet from an 1867 revision of the 1859 opera Genevi\u00e8ve de Brabant by Jacques Offenbach, which debuted in Paris in 1859. Correspondence between Colonel Albert S. McLemore and Walter F. Smith (the second leader of the Marine Band) traces the tune:\nMajor Richard Wallach, USMC, says that in 1878, when he was in Paris, France, the aria to which the Marines' Hymn is now sung was a very popular one.\nThe name of the opera and a part of the chorus was secured from Major Wallach and forwarded to Mr. Smith, who replied:\nMajor Wallach is to be congratulated upon a wonderfully accurate musical memory, for the aria of the Marine Hymn is certainly to be found in the opera, 'Genevieve de Brabant'... The melody is not in the exact form of the Marine Hymn, but is undoubtedly the aria from which it was taken. I am informed, however, by one of the members of the band, who has a Spanish wife, that the aria was one familiar to her childhood and it may, therefore, be a Spanish folk song.\nThanks to Radford for suggesting this tune!\nFlute Sheet Music: Lilliburlero (Trad.

As the wind increases, it draws heat from the body, driving down skin temperature and eventually the internal body temperature. Therefore, the wind makes it feel much colder. If the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit and the wind is blowing at 15 mph, the wind chill is -19 degrees Fahrenheit. At this wind chill temperature, exposed skin can freeze in 30 minutes. The only effect wind chill has on objects, such as car radiators, water pipes or windshields, is to shorten the amount of time for the object to cool. The object will not cool below the actual air temperature. Below is the new NOAA National Weather Service guide for wind chill.

        "raw_content": "33 Amazing Numbers From Berkshire Hathaway's Golden Anniversary Shareholder Letter\nThese numbers illustrate the magnitude of Buffett's achievement -- as well as the \"Berkshire system.\"\nAs a boy, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A) (NYSE:BRK-B) CEO Warren Buffett was obsessed with numerical data. You get some sense of this when you go through his annual letters to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders, which are peppered with statistics. The most recent letter, which celebrates 50 years of Buffett at the helm, is rich with numbers that illustrate how uncommon this conglomerate is -- and how it was built to be different.\nThe miracle of compounding (but not at head office!)\nValue of $10,000 Invested at the Start of 1964\nS&P 500 Index (with dividends included)*\nEnd-of-2014 value\nCompound annual gain\n*This is a theoretical figure for comparison's sake -- the S&P 500 index is not directly investable.\nLet's look at some numbers that tell the Berkshire story, along with some quotes from Buffett.\n$18.3 billion: Berkshire Hathaway's increase in net worth during 2014. That gain in book value is greater than the book value of more than four-fifths of the companies in the S&P 500.\n9 1/2: Number of Berkshire-owned businesses that would be listed on the Fortune 500 if they were independent -- the \"1/2\" refers to H.J. Heinz, which Berkshire owns with 3G Capital. (\"That leaves 490 1/2 fish in the sea. Our lines are out.\")\n340,499: Number of Berkshire Hathaway employees (including those at Heinz).\n25: Number of people who work at Berkshire Hathaway's headquarters (includes the chief executive officer and chairman).\nBerkshire's \"Powerhouse Five\" businesses\n$12.4 billion: Pre-tax 2014 earnings of Berkshire's \"Powerhouse Five\" -- its five largest non-insurance businesses (Berkshire Hathaway Energy, BNSF, Iscar, Lubrizol, and Marmon).\n$1.6 billion: Increase in Berkshire's \"Powerhouse Five\" pre-tax earnings.\nOne: Number of \"Powerhouse Five\" businesses owned by Berkshire a decade ago (Berkshire Hathaway Energy, then known as MidAmerican Energy, which earned $393 million at the time).\n$6 billion: The amount railroad operator BNSF expects to spend on capital investments in 2015 -- 26% of estimated revenues!\n15%: Percentage of all inter-city freight -- whether it's transported by truck, rail, water, air, or pipeline -- carried by BNSF (\"the most important artery in our economy's circulatory system\").\nInsurance: \"Berkshire's core operation\"\n\"Berkshire's huge and growing insurance operation again operated at an underwriting profit in 2014 -- that makes 12 years in a row -- and increased its float. During that 12-year stretch, our float -- money that doesn't belong to us but that we can invest for Berkshire's benefit -- has grown from $41 billion to $84 billion. Meanwhile, our underwriting profit totaled $24 billion during the twelve-year period, including $2.7 billion earned in 2014. And all of this began with our 1967 purchase of National Indemnity for $8.6 million.\"\n1 1/2: Length of contract, in pages, sealing Berkshire's acquisition of National Indemnity and National Fire & Marine in 1967 for $8.7 million. (See for yourself: The purchase agreement is reproduced on pages 128-129 of the annual report -- the link opens a PDF file.) Not surprisingly, no lawyers or investment bankers were involved in drafting or negotiating the contract.\n$111 billion: National Indemnity's net worth today, according to generally accepted accounting principles.\n$22.7 billion: Amount paid out in claims by Berkshire's insurance operations in 2014.\n$7.1 billion: Single premium on a reinsurance policy written for Lloyd's in 2007. (Berkshire Hathaway has written every property/casualty policy with a premium in excess of $1 billion -- there have been eight of them.)\n$40.5 million: Sales at the Omaha Furniture Mart in the week surrounding the 2014 annual meeting -- that's roughly 4.5 times average weekly sales.\n$30 million: The price Berkshire Hathaway paid for See's Candy in 1972 -- 7.5 times trailing pre-tax earnings.\n$1.9 billion: See's Candy's cumulative pre-tax earnings since its acquisition.\n$40 million: Aggregate incremental investment in See's Candy required to produce those $1.9 billion in earnings.\n45%: Approximate U.S. market share of Berkshire subsidiary Clayton Homes in manufactured homes.\n13%: Clayton Homes' market share in 2003, the year Berkshire acquired it.\n$15.6 billion: The amount of capital Berkshire Hathaway extended to businesses in a three-week period during the height of the financial crisis, including $3 billion to General Electric, $5 billion to Goldman Sachs and $6.5 billion to Wrigley.\n$42 billion: Total unrealized gains at the end of 2014 on Berkshire's \"Big Four\" equity investments -- American Express, Coca-Cola, IBM and Wells Fargo.\n$1.6 billion: Dividends received by Berkshire on its \"Big Four\" stocks in 2014.\n$12.5 billion: Year-end value of Berkshire's \"phantom\" stake in Bank of America. (Berkshire has the option to purchase 700 million shares of Bank of America before September 2021 at a cost of $5 billion, an option it expects to exercise just before its expiration. Money has a time value, after all -- no sense in making the outlay today.) Berkshire will almost certainly become Bank of America's largest shareholder, in addition to being Wells Fargo's largest shareholder.\nAnd the mistakes (there have been some doozies!)\n$444 million: Berkshire's after-tax loss on its investment in UK retailer/grocer Tesco.\n$5.7 billion: Current value of Berkshire Hathaway shares that Buffett paid for the acquisition of Dexter Shoe (the 1993 purchase price was $433 million).\nZero: Current value of Dexter Shoe.\n$50 billion: The minimum amount by which Berkshire Hathaway's net worth would exceed its current value \"if it had seized several opportunities it was not quite smart enough to recognize as virtually sure things,\" according to Vice Chairman Charlie Munger's estimate. Those mistakes include \"not purchasing Wal-Mart stock when that was sure to work out enormously well.\"\n$100 billion or so: The amount \"diverted ... from BPL partners to a collection of strangers\" by Buffett's decision to acquire National Indemnity through Berkshire Hathaway rather than via Buffett Partnership Limited directly. BPL owned a 61% stake in Berkshire Hathaway -- the \"collection of strangers\" Buffett refers to are Berkshire Hathaway's then-minority shareholders.\nAlex Dumortier, CFA has no position in any stocks mentioned.

        "title": "After Doubling This Year, Nvidia Is Still A Buy",
        "raw_content": "After Doubling This Year, Nvidia Is Still A Buy\nKen Kam Contributor\nNvidia is still a buy.\npublishing a few stock recommendations helps you stand out from the crowd far better than your resume and cover letter\nWith a stock like Nvidia, which has doubled in the past 12 months, its hard to argue that its as good an investment now as it was a year ago. In cases like this, students of investing should ask some key questions. Could the market have been that wrong a year ago? What has changed to justify the higher valuation? Is the run over? Over time, good investors learn to answer these questions more accurately than most. Kyle Harden, the manager of a relatively new Technology Focused Fund says Nvidia is still a buy.\nKen Kam: Nvidia is up over 100% in the past year, aren't you concerned that the market has already discovered this one?\nKyle Harden: I debated whether it is too late to buy or if Nvidia is still on the rise. While it has a relatively high P/E, the key is examining the market conditions to understand its meteoric rise and most importantly if it is positioned for further growth.\nThe primary drivers are Artificial Intelligence (AI), self-driving cars, cryptocurrency, and eSports. All of these drivers require Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) and Nvidia is one of the primary manufacturers of GPUs.\nKam: What are the future prospects of each of the drivers?\nHarden: Just about every company is talking about AI. Bots are clearly the future and this will continue to be a growth driver. AI is being used by more than just tech companies, as leaders seek to automate tasks and utilize their resources more effectively.\nIt's very early for self-driving cars, but with multiple companies such as Google, Tesla and Uber currently testing this functionality, it is only a matter of time before it is deployed on a larger scale. This will represent an exponential growth in demand for GPUs when rolled out to the mass market.\nCryptocurrency is on fire right now. Bitcoin is just under $7,000 with a market cap of $114 billion. The combined cryptocurrency market cap is collectively valued at $200 billion and counting. GPUs essentially are the computational power for many of these cryptocurrencies through a process called mining. This growth has attracted the attention of several hedge funds and new investors, which increases the demand for GPUs globally.\nIt is also important not to discount eSports and online gaming in general. The original use for the GPU was to have high-end graphics for gaming. eSports are televised, have major events in sold out arenas, and are even offering college scholarships now. This is just the tip of the iceberg for eSports.\nKam: What are the threats to Nvidia?\nHarden: There are currently other GPUs on the market such as AMD and there have been rumors that Tesla may build their own GPU. Nvidia has a very strong team and they are well positioned to handle these potential threats as well as expand their position.\nKam: When did you make your first investment in Nvidia?\nHarden: I added NVDA to my portfolio in late September and I am currently up over 15%. I expect there will be a few bumps along the way, especially as legislation catches up with self-driving cars, cryptocurrency and AI. Those will represent buying opportunities because in the long-run the demand for Nvidia's GPUs will be strong.\nKam: It's a good thing you didn't wait for a \"bump along the way\" to bring the price down before your first investment. Do you see any near-term negatives that might create a opportunity to buy on a dip?\nHarden: In the third quarter earnings call, Nvidia shattered expectations. Nvidia posted earnings of $1.33 per share and revenue of $2.64 billion in the third quarter while Wall Street was expecting adjusted earnings of $1.07 per share on revenue of $2.362 billion.\nThe prospects look very bright for Nvidia even though there should be increased competition from Intel and AMD, as they are attempting to team up to take on Nvidia by collaborating on a new graphic chip.\nMy Take: Kyle Harden's first Marketocracy fund outperformed the S&P 500 11.09% to 10.22% for more than 9 years.\nAs is common, the data from his first fund showed that he was not making money in every sector. This lead him to start a 2nd fund that focuses on technology stocks -- the sector that accounted for a disproportionate share of his first fund's gains.\nAlthough Kyle has a real-money GIPS composite for his Tech Focus Fund, which is off to a great start, it's track record is too short to recommend to clients at this time. View Kyle's track record.\nNevertheless, if you want to work in the investment industry, publishing a few stock recommendations helps you stand out from the crowd far better than your resume and cover letter .\nTowards this end, I am starting to publish the best ideas of our members, even our free members, to help them stand out stand out from the crowd of Wall Street job applicants.

        "title": "What Do Hipsters And Banks Have In Common? Gentrification",
        "raw_content": "What Do Hipsters And Banks Have In Common? Gentrification\nMorgan Simon Contributor\nInvesting I write about money and social justice.\nHipsters are the symptom, not the only cause, of a gentrification scheme also influenced by banks working in partnership with big-time developers.\nSocially responsible investors can make a huge difference in communities that are experiencing or at risk of displacement pressures.\nCRC protest in front of First Republic Bank headquarters, June 20, 2018Mike Shriver\nClose your eyes and picture the typical, vilified gentrifier in the San Francisco Bay Area. He\u2019s probably white, mid-thirties, makes an absurd amount of money at a tech company, wears his pants just a bit too tight, and likes hosting salons in his thoroughly remodeled West Oakland Victorian home bought out from under a black family put into dire straits after the 2008 financial crisis.\nBut if you really open your eyes to the realities of gentrification \u2014 you should equally picture a banker in a suit. Hipsters are the symptom, not the only cause, of a gentrification scheme also influenced by banks working in partnership with big-time developers.\nSounds like a conspiracy theory? As usual in this series, The Money Story Behind the Story \u2014 follow the money, and you\u2019ll get the full story. That\u2019s precisely what Kevin Stein from The California Reinvestment Coalition has done in the report \u201cAnti-Displacement Code of Conduct: How Banks, Private Equity and Wall Street Can Stop Contributing to Displacement.\u201d In this interview, he explains how the banks we use every day are fueling gentrification \u2014 and what we can do about it.\nHow did this issue get on your radar?\nThe California Reinvestment Coalition is comprised of 300 nonprofit organizations who envision a better future \u2014 one in which people of color and low-income people have the tools necessary to build household and community wealth, and are able to live and participate fully and equally in healthy and stable communities without fear of displacement. This means we must ensure that banks and other corporations invest and conduct business in our communities in a just and equitable manner.\nThe issue of displacement financing and its impacts on communities came to CRC and nonprofit members of our coalition in two ways:\nFirst, our member organizations reported to us that displacement and gentrification were having very real and negative impacts on long standing members of the community and community-serving small businesses. Millions of foreclosed homes, disproportionately located in communities of color, were purchased by Wall Street and cash investors who converted the homes into single family rentals. Through this process, first time homebuyers were deprived opportunities to attain the American Dream and build wealth; tenants were subjected to Wall Street landlords that were focused less on making repairs than on maximizing profits; and entire neighborhoods began to change. We saw that banks were selling REO properties to investors, but also that banks, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac were financing the creation of a new industry and a new asset class that resulted in displacement.\nThe second time that displacement financing was put on our agenda was in the summer of 2015. Tenant and affordable housing groups in San Francisco approached us about bank financing of real estate speculators that were buying Rent Controlled buildings. The landlords invoked an exception in our state law (the Ellis Act) to evict the tenants by purporting to get out of the \u201cbusiness of being landlords,\u201d and then selling the properties for a windfall to convert into luxury condominiums. These \"displacement mortgages\" had multiple negative impacts, leading to the foreseeable eviction of vulnerable families, as well as the loss of critically needed affordable housing stock in the community.\nWhat\u2019s the connection between the banking sector and gentrification? What did you find in your study of the Bay Area?\nEssentially, bank financing enables and facilitates displacement and gentrification. In the context of Wall Street, firms like Blackstone are buying foreclosed properties and renting them out. They are able to do so because banks like JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and GSEs like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have bundled and securitized rent streams from REO to rental properties and have sold the interests in these rent payments to investors \u2014 not unlike how the subprime mortgages (which brought our economy to its knees) were securitized. For smaller investors who buy properties in neighborhoods of color, they are often able to do so because they are granted mortgages from a bank, and then can leverage their ownership of these investment properties into other loans to buy other properties.\nFrom the \"Disrupting Displacement Financing in Oakland & Beyond\" reportCRC\nThere is a symbiotic, co-conspiratorial, relationship between lenders and real estate speculators. In working with the Anti Eviction Mapping Project, we developed an infographic (above) to paint a picture of the displacement occurring in Oakland. We talked with a number of groups in Oakland that were responding to the problem of displacement of local residential tenants and small businesses. We cross checked the list of problematic evictors (as identified by local groups) against local Rent Board data, and then researched where the financing for these deals came from.\nWhile a number of banks had financed properties where tenants were later evicted, the strongest finding was that First Republic Bank was the outlier in Oakland, having made hundreds of loans to landlords that had filed hundreds of eviction petitions with the local Rent Board.\nPresumably this is all legal? Should it be?\nThe Bank believes this lending is legal. We are not so sure.\nWe believe that bank financing of displacement raises serious legal questions. In one example in which First Republic financed landlords sought to evict tenants from a couple of buildings, the local legal aid office confirmed that 100% of the families they represent (who will likely be displaced from their homes) are people of color and protected classes under the Fair Housing Act. We also believe important questions are raised about whether it is legal or just to underwrite a loan if a bank knows (or at least, should know) that the new rents charged will exceed any existing local rent control protections.\nWhat options do consumers have \u2014 either those that bank at these banks, or that are looking to buy a home \u2014 to address these trends?\nConsumers, depositors, and investors have options. One clear option is to close accounts and switch banks, or to seek a loan only from a bank with a good community record. CRC and our members have developed the Anti-Displacement Code of Conduct for Financial Institutions, which outlines how banks can alter policies and practices to mitigate against displacement financing, while also focusing reinvestment activity into homeownership, small business ownership, and community stability. We would encourage consumers and local governments to support banks that do the right thing. As one great example, Community Bank of the Bay has signed the Code of Conduct. If consumers, foundations, socially responsible investor groups, other banks, and local governments moved their deposits to CBB, it would enable that bank to scale up support for community efforts that preserve affordable housing and tenancies, and that build local wealth, not strip it. That would also send a strong message to other banks that they should sign the Code of Conduct and focus on addressing the crisis of displacement that is plaguing large parts of our state.\nWhat is your advice for places like the Bay Area where the gentrification trend feels irreversible? How could investors play a different role moving forward?\nMany groups in gentrifying areas are fighting displacement in different ways, and all are important. We strongly believe that investors can play a very important role in financing projects to build affordable housing, finance community land trusts, enable small businesses to buy their buildings or secure long term leases, and support groups that fight evictions and provide technical assistance to small businesses.\nBut investors can also move money out of institutions like First Republic Bank, which are part of the problem, and into those like Community Bank of the Bay, which are part of the solution. Socially responsible investors, pension funds, local governments, foundations, and other depositors can also play an important role in encouraging financial institutions to do the right thing and sign the Anti-Displacement Code of Conduct. As one example, Silicon Valley Community Foundation not only endorsed the Anti Displacement Code of Conduct, it also engaged Community Bank of the Bay in dialogue around the Code, and CBB eventually signed on as well.\nWhat is your advice for areas of the country where gentrification hasn\u2019t hit as hard yet? What could banks and investors do differently?\nThe importance of this questions is heightened by the Opportunity Zone initiative that was part of last year's tax bill. Opportunity Zones promise preferential tax treatment for capital gains that are invested in certain low income neighborhoods throughout the country, potentially totaling billions of dollars. While some are excited that this initiative will spur needed development and investment in underserved communities, many, including CRC, are concerned that unrestrained capital in low income neighborhoods will only pour fuel on the fire of displacement.\nWe recognize that when it comes to gentrification, the whole country does not look like San Francisco, Oakland, Silicon Valley, or Los Angeles. This is true for the state of California as well. It is most important for communities to have a voice in what investment and development looks like, regardless of whether gentrification is at the door, seems far away, or has come and gone. The Anti-Displacement Code of Conduct can frame these discussions for banks, investors, and communities. We encourage nonprofits who are interested to endorse our Code of Conduct, for local governments to create Responsible Banking Ordinances built around the Code of Conduct, for state and local governments to use the Code of Conduct to inform the treatment of proposed Opportunity Zone investments, for banks to sign on, and for investors of all stripes to make investment and deposit decisions that are informed by the Code of Conduct.\nSocially responsible investors can make a huge difference in communities that are experiencing or at risk of displacement pressures. Often, it may not be clear to investors that certain stakeholders or certain investments are exacerbating displacement pressures. What is required is a little extra due diligence to understand what is happening on the ground, and greater connections to and conversations with impacted community groups. Communities have the right to expect and demand that local investments will benefit and build up the families, small businesses, and institutions that have been there. Socially responsible investors, listening to community concerns, can help make this vision a reality.\nDisclosures related to my work here.\nI am an investor and activist who has been building bridges between finance and social justice for close to twenty years. In that time, I've influenced over $150 Billion and helped thousands of people learn how to align their money with their values. My book, Real Impact: T...",

        "raw_content": "The Reasons You\u2019re Not Getting Stronger\nThis week\u2019s blog is a guest post from one of the smartest minds out there in the strength and conditioning world; Mr. Tony Gentilcore. This article breaks down the reasons you aren\u2019t making the progress you\u2019d like and how to put together a proper workout routine. Hope you enjoy!\nIf I had to make a list of things that really annoy me, it would be as follows:\n1. \u201cTwilight.\u201d\n2. People who don\u2019t turn right on red.\n3. People who don\u2019t prioritize getting stronger.\nAs a strength coach, this last one is what really gets me irritated\u2014and for good reason. To be blunt: Strength is kind of a big deal. It\u2019s what allows us to pick up that bag of groceries off the floor without blowing our back out; it\u2019s what keeps us from getting injured on the playing field (whether a professional athlete or weekend warrior); and it\u2019s undoubtedly the foundation behind many of the \u201cqualities\u201d we\u2019re chasing in the weight room (be it speed, agility, power, or just looking good with our clothes off).\nUnfortunately for some, despite knowing better, and despite their best efforts, they\u2019re just not getting stronger. No matter what routine they follow or how many days per week they hit the iron, they\u2019re just not getting any results\u2014frustrated, they\u2019re still using the same weight now as they were weeks (if not months) prior. Are you making the mistakes below?\nProgressive Overload (Not Using It)\nWhile it\u2019s the most obvious place to start, surprisingly, there are many trainees who fail to grasp the notion that progressive overload is key when it comes to strength. Simply stated: The body will adapt to any stress placed upon it, and in order to get stronger, you need to make certain that you force the body to do so.\nMany know the story of the Greek god, Milo, who, as a young boy, made it a point to carry a small heifer over his shoulder every day. Each and every day, for years, Milo would carry the heifer, and as the heifer grew and became a full-grown cow, Milo, too, grew. So much so that stories of his strength have lived on forever in Greek mythology.\nThere are numerous ways to approach progressive overload and make any exercise more challenging. Adding more sets, decreasing rest intervals, and increasing range of motion are some of the more common components. The most evident, however (and in many cases, the most neglected), is to simply increase the weight or load of an exercise by adding a little weight each and every week.\nIt doesn\u2019t have to be more complicated than that (really!). We\u2019re not trying to do calculus here. It could be as simple as adding five more pounds to the barbell on your squats or maybe just grabbing the next heaviest pair of dumbbells on your next set of presses. Either way, unless you\u2019re making a concerted effort to challenge your body and force it to adapt to heavier loads consistently, you\u2019ll never make much progress.\nDoing Too Much (Volume)\nWe live in a society that celebrates excess. It\u2019s not uncommon for someone to own more than one car or even more than one house. Likewise, when it comes to training, many people are of the mentality that more is better. If training three days per week is good, then logic would dictate that training every\u2026 single\u2026 day\u2026 until you can\u2019t feel the left side of your face or you cough up your spleen (whichever comes first) must be even better, right? Wrong. Fatigue will mask an individual\u2019s true fitness level. In other words: Making yourself tired for the sake of making yourself tired and accumulating more and more fatigue is a tried-and-true recipe for zapping your strength (and performance).\nAs an example, let\u2019s say we go ahead and figure out what your one-rep max is for the deadlift. Afterward, you go out and run 10 miles. Upon your return, we decide to re-test your deadlift. What are the chances you\u2019ll even sniff that original number? My guess is you\u2019d have a better shot at winning the lottery and getting struck by lighting in the same day.\nTo that end, it\u2019s often beneficial to implement structured de-load weeks where the goal is to allow the body to rest and recover. There are a multitude of ways to approach a de-load week: Decrease total reps, decrease total number of exercises performed, omit direct spinal loading, maybe even take a week and perform outdoor activities rather than hit the gym. The point is, in order to make consistent progress; it\u2019s imperative to give your body a break every now and then.\nNot Focusing on the Basics\nPeople often look at the programs I write and are amazed at just how \u201csimple\u201d they are. Funny enough, every client I train always gets stronger\u2014because I place a premium on mastering the basics:\nDeadlift pattern\nSingle Leg pattern\nIf people learned to place a priority on those six movements and did away with all the \u201cfluff\u201d (Really? Seventeen sets of bicep curls?), they\u2019d be amazed how much improvement they\u2019d see. In order to get strong, you need to perform movements that will force you to get strong. Oftentimes this entails people going outside of their comfort zone\u2014and not only learning the basics but mastering them.\nFor the next 1-2 months, every session should begin with one compound movement:\nDay 1: Squat Variation (box squat, front squat, back squat, etc.)\nDay 2: Pressing Variation (bench press, floor press, etc.)\nDay 3: Deadlift Variation (trap bar deadlift, SUMO deadlift, etc.)\nYou should put your heart and soul into that first movement of the day. Literally you should hate life. Remember: Each week, try to add just a little weight. After that, do whatever you want. Do some handstands for all I care. Just, for the love of God, perform one of the six patterns above to start each and every training session, and I guarantee you\u2019re going to get stronger.\nLift Heavy Stuff. Like, a Lot.\nPiggy-backing on the previous point, while it will increase your general level of awesomeness to include more compound movements in your routine, it would also be nice if you\u2019d quit with the three sets of 10 nonsense. I don\u2019t know who made the golden rule that every exercise, every day, had to be done for three sets of ten reps (3\u00d710), but it needs to stop. Sure, you can get strong(er) using 3\u00d710\u2014but it only lasts for so long, and it really only works for newbies, and they could do anything and get stronger. (Ah, to be a newbie again.)\nI don\u2019t know who made the golden rule that every exercise, every day, had to be done for three sets of ten reps (3\u00d710), but it needs to stop. Instead, I like to advocate different set/rep schemes that have more of a strength focus\u2014anything between 3-5 repetitions. The options are boundless: 5\u00d75, 4\u00d73, 4\u00d74, 8\u00d73\u2026 It doesn\u2019t matter. There are no rules! All that matters is you get outside your comfort zone and start utilizing set/rep schemes that will force you to get strong. Using an example, lets say every Monday is \u201cdeadlift\u201d day.\nWeek 1: Trap Bar Deadlift \u2013 5\u00d75\nWeek 3: SUMO Deadlift \u2013 6\u00d75\nWeek 5: Pull-Through \u2013 3\u00d710 (de-load week, no spinal loading)\nWeek 6: Conventional Deadlift \u2013 4\u00d73\nWeek 8: Conventional Deadlift \u2013 work up to 3 rep max, then 2\u00d75\nYou Don\u2019t Train Around Other Strong People\nLastly, and this is a point I won\u2019t spend a lot of time on: If you want to get better at chess, you hang out with people who play chess. If you want to get better at computer programming, you hang out with people who program computers. Likewise, if you want to get stronger, you need to hang out with people who have the same passion as you do, will push you to get better, and more importantly, are much, much stronger than you.\nEven if it\u2019s only one day per week, go out of your way to train at a facility that prides itself not on the number of treadmills or fancy gadgets it has, but rather encourages its members to use chalk and throw around some weight. Train in that sort of environment, and the sky\u2019s the limit!\nOriginally published April 2012. Updated November 2015.\nImage Source: www.Projectbattleready.com",

        "raw_content": "Salvador Dal\u00ed comes back home to Contemporary Art Museum Reina Sofia in Madrid, with the biggest show ever after opening at the Pompidou Center in Paris . Formidable Magazine crelebrates this event puting together a massive collection of photographs as outrageous, scandalous and politically incorrect as Dal\u00ed himself. Scroll down at your own risk\u2026\nAlso see our two newest pieces on Dal\u00ed here and here.\nSalvador Dal\u00ed spent considerable time in New York in the 1930s, cultivating an audience and a market. These efforts culminated at the 1939 World\u2019s Fair in a giant Surrealist folly containing a grotto with erotic all-female tableaux vivants, some of them staged underwater. His pavilion, the Dream of Venus, was an astonishing realization of what Dal\u00ed had termed the \u201cterrifying and edible beauty\u201d of surrealist architecture, then unprecedented on American shores. Entered through a spread-leg archway, it contained such features as a ceiling of inverted umbrellas and a new version of the artist\u2019s famous Rainy Taxi (1938). Its bulbous, writhing fa\u00e7ade, riven with holes and cracks, opposed the polished, streamlined Art Deco architecture of the national and corporate pavilions of the fair\u2019s optimistic \u2018World of Tomorrow.\u2019\nWhen sponsors objected the semi-naked models, he wrote his Declaration of the Independence of the Imagination and the Rights of Man to His Own Madness, copies of which were showered over the city by aeroplanes as a full-scale public protest.\nWith his characteristic penchant for violating taboos. The framework of the dream justified Dal\u00ed\u2019s use of live nudes and bizarre imagery. Dal\u00ed wanted to emphasize the mind\u2019s ability to form associations between apparently unrelated images and ideas, and therefore make meaning out of them.\nWorld\u2019s Fair Salvador Dal\u00ed\u2019s pavilion, Dream of Venus.\nUndervater scene.\nWith his wife Gala posing with a taxi cab with a fish through the window, in one of the pavilion sets.\nPhotographer Philippe Halsman collaborated with Salvador Dali for years that resulted in shots like the famous Atomicus, where Dali and his surroundings (including three cats) are suspended in mid air. This intimate, behind the scenes photo of Dali \u201cat work\u201d in bed, projecting pieces of dirty paper \u201cto stimulate his inspiration.\u201d St Regis hotel where Dali often resided in New York, 1964.\n\u201cMidsummer\u2019s Night Mare\u201d set design, 1944.\nIn 1951, once again, Dali teamed up with Magnum photographer Philippe Halsman to create one of the most enchanting, morbid and bizarre photographs of all time. Entitled \u201cIn Voluptas Mors,\u201d or Voluptuous Death.\nSalvador Dali loved the Marx Brothers. He loved their madcap, anarchic comedy. In particular he loved Harpo Marx\u2014the blonde corkscrew-haired comic mime whose visual comedy\u2014unlike the quick witty repartee of his brother Groucho\u2014was universal and needed no translation. Salvador described Harpo as one of America\u2019s three great Surrealists\u2014the other two being Walt Disney and Cecil B. DeMille.\nThe pair first met at a party in Paris in 1936. Dali told Harpo how much he loved his films\u2014in particular Animal Crackers which he described as \u201cthe summit of the evolution of comic cinema.\u201d He gushed over Harpo\u2019s performance where he pulled fish and cutlery from his pocket and shot the hats of beautiful women\u2014this was true Surrealism! Understandably, the two men became friends.\nMad Isolde. Nude in front of Salvador Dali\u2019s set design for Mad Trista, 1944. Dali painted the 9m-by-15m backdrop for the 1944 ballet production Le Tristan fou (Mad Tristan), which was inspired by the classic tale Tristan und Isolde.\nSalvador Dali was approached by Disney himself in 1945 to propose a collaborative film.\nDisney\u2019s sudden turn to surrealism was an attempt to silence several of his critics who felt that his films sacrificed genuine artistry at the altar of marketability\u2014favoring tradition and safety over innovation and experimentation.\nThe evocative Fantasia, released in 1940, had been a groundbreaking first step on this front, and the animator now hoped that Destino would keep this newfound momentum going.\nThe artists\u2019 little-known lovechild is half \u201cFantasia,\u201d half \u201cThe Persistence of Memory,\u201d as nightmarish images made from animation, live dancers and special effects flow in and out of frame.\nDal\u00ed described the plot of the piece: \u201cA magical display of the problem of life in the labyrinth of time.\u201d Walt Disney, appropriately enough, preferred a different synopsis: \u201cA simple story about a young girl in search of true love.\u201d\nBut alas, the project died in infancy and Disney pulled the plug on the film after its third month of production. Though he would remain lifelong friends with Dali afterwards.\nNothing remains of their short-lived joint venture but a 15-second demo reel and a handful of rudimentary sketches.\nParis 1953, on a carriage drawn by his goat. Once In search of inspiration, he would demand and entire herd of goats to be delivered to his hotel, Le Meurice. He would then shoot them with plastic bullets.\nChaos and Creation, a collaboration film by Halsman and Dali.\nIn the Ed Sulivan show.

Dal\u00ed painted did this piece in 1946, in response to a contest held by the David L. Loew-Albert Lewin film production company for a painting of The Temptation of Saint Anthony, to be used in the film The Private Affairs of Bel Ami. This was the only art contest in which Dal\u00ed participated, and ultimately his painting was not chosen for the film.",

(AP) A woman who attends Michigan State University filed a federal lawsuit against the school Monday alleging three former men\u2019s basketball players sexually assaulted her at an off-campus apartment in 2015 and she was discouraged from reporting what happened.\nThe woman and players are not named in the suit, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Grand Rapids. It seeks compensatory and punitive damages.\nMichigan State has been rocked for months by a sexual assault scandal involving a former sports doctor that now includes his ex-boss. Three ex-football players also were charged last year with sexual assault.\nMonday\u2019s lawsuit says the female student was 18 on April 12, 2015, when she met the players at an East Lansing bar. She was later taken to an off-campus apartment where she was told a party was going on, according to the lawsuit.\n\u201dUpon arrival, there was no party as few people were present,\u201d the suit said.\nThe woman said she was feeling \u201ddiscombobulated\u201d and tried to \u201dsend a phone text, but she could not control her thumbs to formulate a text.\u201d\nAt some point, the players took turns raping her in a bedroom, according to the lawsuit, which added that she had \u201dno intention of having any physical contact with any of the people present at the party.\u201d\n\u201dPlaintiff does not remember anything else until she woke up on the couch a few hours later,\u201d the suit said.\nShe caught a taxi back to her dorm room and contacted university Counseling Center staff about a week later.\nAfter the woman told counseling center staff that basketball players were involved, she said the staff made it clear that if she reported it to police \u201dshe faced an uphill battle that would create anxiety and unwanted media attention,\u201d according to the lawsuit.\n\u201dPlaintiff was so discouraged by the representations made by the MSUCC Counseling staff she became frightened to the point that she decided she could not report the rape(s) to law enforcement,\u201d it continued.\nShe also did not seek assistance from the school\u2019s Sexual Assault Program until 10 months later.\nThe lawsuit accuses Michigan State of failing to comply with Title IX requirements by not providing the woman with equal protection under the law and says the school \u201dcreated an unwritten, official policy that created a culture in which male MSU athletes felt entitled and emboldened to commit sexual assaults without consequence.\u201d\nThe woman\u2019s attorney, Karen Truszkowski, told The Associated Press on Monday that she is reserving comment to give MSU \u201dan opportunity to get up to speed and go over it.\u201d\n\u201dThey do have it and they have reviewed it,\u201d she said of the lawsuit.\nA Michigan State spokeswoman declined comment Monday when contacted by the AP.\nLast week, three ex-football players pleaded guilty to reduced charges in the 2017 sexual assault of a woman in an apartment bathroom.\nDisgraced sports doctor Larry Nassar is spending the rest of his life in prison for sexually assaulting girls and women who came to him for treatment.\nFormer College of Osteopathic Medicine dean William Strampel was charged last month with failing to protect patients from Nassar, along with sexually harassing female students and pressuring them for nude selfies.\nStrampel oversaw the clinic where Nassar worked.",

        "raw_content": "Paul Brown's Strategic Balancing Act at Inspire Brands\nPaul Brown has begun his balancing act at the helm of Inspire Brands.\nInspire Brands, the new multi-concept operator encompassing Arby\u2019s, Buffalo Wild Wings and R Taco, is now one of the largest owner-operators of restaurants out there with 1,700 company restaurants and 4,600 locations when including franchise operations. Global sales in 2017 across the brands topped $7.6 billion.\nBrown, who oversaw the masterful turnaround of Arby\u2019s, said the multi-brand strategy is something he and Roark founder and managing partner Neal Aronson had been talking about.\n\u201cNeal and I had been talking about this for a couple years around a few things: the timing and dynamics in the restaurant industry. Things that weren\u2019t important five years ago are now important today to be competitive, whether it\u2019s delivery or technology,\u201d Brown told sister publication The Restaurant Finance Monitor. \u201cIn order to make those investments having a scale business is important.\u201d\nThis strategic body is something Brown certainly looked at back in his McKinsey days, and something he saw firsthand in the hotel industry when he was a president in the Hilton system.\n\u201cThis is where my experience in the hotel industry will prove a little helpful. This is quite a bit more similar to how hotel companies have sorted out where you have very distinct brands, very complimentary brands that span a broad price or occasion spectrum. Sharing capabilities where it makes sense, but making sure they each remain distinct brands,\u201d said Brown. \u201cThe trick is that balance, if you go too far and share everything it can lead to the dilution of the integrity of the brands.\u201d\nActivists especially have been calling for focus, eschewing multi-brand setups and company operations, which Brown says Inspire will maintain. Lucky for Brown (and R Taco), he doesn\u2019t have to deal with activists for the time being. He said it\u2019s time for strong multi-brand organizations, not just because of the consolidation phase of the cycle, but because of all the new challenges.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s less about the cycle and more to do with the evolution of the industry itself. If you look at the restaurant industry and compare it to other sectors out there, it\u2019s not the most fragmented, but it is one of the most fragmented $600 billion industries in existence,\u201d said Brown. \"So there is a lot of focus around the need to make some pretty substantial investments in infrastructure to remain competitive and be competitive in the future. Those two things together generally can lead to some consolidation. The big question is obviously how quickly and what the right type of consolidation is.\u201d\nOne of the benefits of Inspire\u2019s network of brands is they have scale, but they also have room to grow. That will hold true on any future investments from the company.\n\u201cWe do like brands that are distinct and established with still some growth opportunity in front of them, large but not so large that they\u2019ve maxed out their opportunity to expand,\u201d said Brown. \u201cArby\u2019s could be twice as large in the U.S., not to mention international. Same with Buffalo Wild Wings\u2014a lot of room for growth domestically and outside of the U.S. but established. There\u2019s a lot of potential companies that fit that description.\u201d\nBeyond that, Brown said he doesn\u2019t have specific metrics around what those future acquisitions might be.\n\u201cThey don\u2019t all have to be in the same segment, it\u2019s not wrong, all the rest of the companies have generally picked a segment to play in. But we think there is an opportunity to think a little more broadly,\u201d said Brown.\nFor the next several months, he\u2019ll be working closely with the Buffalo Wild Wings team and \u201cbringing some of the approach we took with the Arby\u2019s business to the Buffalo Wild Wings brand as well. Obviously the answers will be different but the approach will be fairly similar,\u201d said Brown.\nHe highlighted two big areas of wisdom within the two segments Inspire now touches that he thinks will be especially helpful across the organization.\n\u201cVarious brands may be at different stages of things. The classic example is because takeout and delivery and digital ordering is more important now for causal dining than it is with a drive-thru. So Buffalo Wild Wings is a couple years ahead of Arby\u2019s in those areas and Arby\u2019s will learn firsthand,\u201d said Brown. \u201cAnd if you look at QSR, it\u2019s a much more product development business. We think we can bring some of those leanings to Buffalo Wild Wings.\u201d\nAs for future plans, there\u2019s not a playbook etched in stone. He said that\u2019s what\u2019s great about working with a financial sponsor like Roark, which is known for long-term investments instead of the alternative pump-and-dump private equity play.",

        "raw_content": "Online, Offline or Both, Shoppers Call the Shots 24/7\nNo matter what you call the new kind of shopping\u2014e-tailing, omnichannel, unified retail, O2O\u2014consumers hold the power and are bending retail to their will. Adapting to that new reality is key to surviving and thriving. Here\u2019s what to know.\nWithin the retail industry, we\u2019re all focused on how to talk about the evolving nature of our business. You could boil it down to terminology: There\u2019s brick-and-mortar which begat websites and e-commerce. Multi-channel followed and then omnichannel. Total retail, also known as unified retail, is the latest buzzword. The list goes on.\nTo consumers however, it\u2019s all just plain \u201cshopping.\u201d\nWe retailers should keep that in mind.\nUntil recently, shopping was primarily a planned-out, \u201cactive\u201d endeavor. The consumer went to a store, picked up the items he or she wanted, paid up front and took the goods home. As the e-commerce era dawned, the consumer sat down at a PC to shop a store\u2019s website.\nToday, active shopping still goes on, but it\u2019s something we can squeeze into our lives almost any time we want. Waiting in the express line at the supermarket? You can buy that Lego set for your son\u2019s birthday on your smartphone before the cashier starts ringing you up. Stuck in a long, boring meeting? Check out a new pair of boots on your laptop out of sight of the boss. Running low on laundry detergent? Just hit the Amazon Dash Button and more will arrive tomorrow.\nClearly, shopping has evolved for everyone. But there are differences\u2014some small, some big\u2014in how, where, and why we shop that cut across age, income, and lifestyle. Other differences have to do with product categories.\nIn our 2016 FTI Retail Outlook Report, we surveyed a sample of 1,500 U.S. adults in key demographic and income ranges to find out more about their shopping habits and preferences. The results read like an instruction manual into the 21st century consumer.\nFirst, it should come as no surprise that everyone shops online. Our survey showed that 90% of respondents had logged on and made a purchase in the past three months. Of those, 54% bought using a mobile device.\nBut what may be surprising is the fact that in-store purchasing still predominates and is the preferred channel in most product categories\u2014with a few exceptions. In apparel, footwear and accessories, for instance, 75-90% of consumers made a brick-and-mortar purchase during the last holiday season, with over 50% expressing a preference for in-store. A whopping 80-90% of consumers bought in-store in the appliance and furniture category, with 60-80% saying they prefer to make purchases that way.\nFood and groceries hit the high mark with 100% of consumers making an in-store purchase during the holidays; over 85% prefer it that way. Only electronics, where 75% bought in-store, showed online preference (18%) that approached in-store (35%).\nSource: 2016 FTI Consulting survey of 1,500 consumers\nChanges in consumer behavior follow generational patterns, with younger groups typically blazing new trails. So it is with millennials and shopping habits. This group, born between 1980 and the mid-1990s, lead the way in online purchasing across every category of goods. And they top all others in mobile buying, as well. They make a purchase three times more often by smartphone than Baby Boomers, for example\u201476% versus 24%, respectfully.\nNevertheless, you can still find millennials in brick-and-mortars. In fact, they prefer in-store buying across every product category\u2014even more so than Baby Boomers.\nBut it\u2019s important to note that millennials\u2019 in-store shopping habits have changed compared with the young generations who blazed trails before. In the past, these shoppers would stroll the mall in groups and go from store to store\u2014where they would try new retailers, brands, and products. This in turn led to impulse buying along with preplanned purchasing.\nToday, shopping is still a social activity for millennials, but it\u2019s often more of an offline-to-online experience. Friends text photos and opinions of the products they see or try on to each other before deciding whether to purchase\u2014either on-the-spot or later online.\nMillennials also seek a variety of viewpoints about their retail desires. For instance, 26% follow fashion bloggers online compared to a mere 3% of Boomers. They value online reviews (68% rate reviews as extremely/very important versus 55% among Boomers.) And, they access more sources for reviews\u2014especially via social media such as Twitter and Instagram.\nWith fatter wallets, we can expect affluent households ($100,000 plus yearly income) to exhibit some unique behaviors and attitudes about shopping. And they do. For one thing, they are more active online purchasers than less-affluent households\u201466% buy online at least once a month as compared to 58% of non-affluent households. Affluent households are also much more likely to go online to purchase apparel, footwear, and cosmetics and somewhat more likely to purchase electronics, furniture, foods, and groceries online.\nBut when it comes to household appliances, higher-earners do not buy online as frequently as less affluent. Why? It may be because of issues related to installation and servicing. They also buy jewelry less frequently online\u2014most likely because they are willing to pay the higher price points of in-store or concerns about receiving authentic goods.\nInterestingly, the affinity for online purchasing does not extend into mobile for affluent households. As it turns out, non-affluents are slightly more active smartphone buyers. But, the wealthier are more frequent cross-channel shoppers, that is, buying both in-store and online at higher rates.\nOnce, retailers set the pace on change within the industry and the consumer followed along. Those days are over. Now, consumers, largely empowered through digital tools, dictate change. But consumers are not all created equal in their habits, and, the product categories themselves are migrating from offline to online popularity at different rates.\nElectronics, for example, as well as apparel and accessories, have become big online sellers and will likely remain so. Furniture and home appliances are still making the move. Food and groceries are largely unchanged.\nYet even within demographic and category trends, certain individual products just seem to lend themselves better to attracting online shoppers. These tend to be items that are easy to describe and are brand-familiar to consumers. Think of an UGG classic boot, a Sony 32\u201d LED HDTV, a Gone With the Wind novel. Items that defy easy definition using brand names or otherwise, or require delivery, lag behind.\nAs the evolution continues to unfold, we retailers must focus our efforts on knowing our customers inside and out and give them every opportunity to get what they want when they want however they\nwant. With mall traffic down for the third year in a row and conversion of online flat to declining, it\u2019s a must.\nAfter all, consumers just want to shop.\nFTI Journal Article: We\u2019re All Fashionistas Now",

So as the organic life on the planet evolves, it is influenced by the inorganic matter or the environment. Similarly, as Inorganic matter \u2018evolves\u2019 or changes, this too is influenced by the organic matter around it.\nThe theory argues that the earth as a whole will react in an automatic manner in a way which appears to keep the conditions on the planet \u2018just right\u2019 for living organisms.

        "raw_content": "PES 2018 Feels Like A Different Game, And That's Good\nby Matthew Kato on Jun 16, 2017 at 11:01 AM\nPro Evolution Soccer has been improving since a slow start to this console generation. Last year's game was superb, but the development team at Konami is not taking anything for granted. For example, PES 2018 does not feel like 2017. Considering the quality of that game, this is no small risk in the name of progress. So far the team's desire to push forward feels like the right move.\nThere is still more news to come for PES 2018 \u2013 including what licenses are being added \u2013 but for now, there's quite enough to contemplate and get excited about regarding its gameplay. Here are a few things I noticed.\nDribbling & Feel\nPES 2018 ups the ante in the series' longstanding quest for making gamers feel like they're in total control. Watching players dribble, it seems like you can see more touches of the ball and there is a corresponding level of fine control when moving around with just the left analog. Players feel like they're appropriately addressing the ball with both their feet, as if you're watching them move as people and not collections of animations.\nPerhaps to accommodate this control, the game as a whole is slower than last year. Overall, it's more deliberate \u2013 but not clunky. While you feel your player's movements more, the tradeoff is knowing when you can or cannot take an extra touch (and with which foot) or have the time, space, and ability to dribble your way out of a situation. There were times when I simply would lose the ball because I was being too ambitious or took too big of a touch of the ball that forced it to roll out of my possession.\nI'm not sure what it's a factor of, but shorter passes feel a little slower as well, but in my time with the game I didn't notice a big difference in how shots, corners, or free kicks felt.\nBody Shielding\nOne new aspect of the game that goes hand-in-hand with ball control is how seamlessly PES 2018 integrates its new auto-shielding. This means that players are constantly dribbling while fighting off other players. The best part is that it all feels natural and not like you're just watching this canned sequence or that everything's already been pre-determined. This is a huge feature that doesn't sound earth-shattering, but is one that is an important step forward.\nGoing along with the new way that players feel when they move and dribble, players overall show new animations in how they handle the ball with parts of their body other than their feet. I've seen new traps off the chest, pulling the ball down with a leg high in the air, and other ways to try and snare the ball. There were a couple times when I honestly wasn't sure how my player was going to control the ball, and then I 'd see a new animation that made total sense and allowed me to corral it.\nI enjoyed my time with the game, and still have much more to comb over the next time I play it. One of the things that I want to check out next time are ball pickups. There were times when my player was very close to the ball without another player near \u2013 close enough that I expected my player to gain possession of the ball \u2013 but it rolled by instead. Not sure if this is due to the slower pace of the game and that I expected my player to get there in time or if it's due to something else. It didn't happen a lot, but it did a few times.\nFor more on the game, check out its initial features announcement as well as my wishlist for this year's game (written before E3).\nPES 2018 comes out on September 12 for PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.",

        "raw_content": "Buy Apples seeds and plants online\nIf you are lucky enough to have even a small garden then investing in an apple tree could be a very good idea and provide you with a good yield and perhaps some pleasant shade for years to come. From full-size trees to dwarf varieties and restricted varieties, for example espaliered versions against walls, apple trees can be one of the most delightful sorts of tree to have in your garden and can provide a surprising amount of delicious fruit for very little effort.\nGrowing Apples:\nMost people who choose to grow apple trees will not grow their tree from a seed but will buy a tree grafted into a certain rootstock to ensure that they get the right tree of the right size for their space. There are so many apple varieties to choose from that it can be a good idea to consult an expert on the type of apple tree that would be best for you. Choose and plant your new apple tree between late autumn and early spring.\nApples will do best in a well-drained loam that is at least 2ft deep. Mulching and watering well is very important while the tree is establishing itself and until it is growing well. Make sure that the tree is well supported during its early life in your garden. Apples prefer a sheltered spot in full sun but will tolerate a fair amount of shade provided they do get half a day's sunshine during the growing season. Cooking apples will require less sun than sweeter varieties.\nApples are self-pollinating but do better when they are pollinated by a partner tree. If you have space for more than one apple tree that is great. Those who do not, do not worry, there are usually apple trees (eating or crab apple) nearby in a neighbours garden or on public land, so you may find that your tree has no trouble in that regard and will produce a good crop when the time comes.\nApple trees do best, especially when young, if they do not have to compete with grass. Mulch an area around your tree and plant it instead with deep-rooted comfrey, a nitrogen fixing legume and other beneficial herbs and flowers that will work together to help the apple tree thrive. Companion planting should reduce the incidence of common pests and other problems.\nWhy grow apples in the garden?\nApples are so easy to grow, there should be at least one in every garden. The feeling of being able to go outside and eat an apple off your own tree cannot be beaten. After a few years (depending on variety) you should have a good harvest with plenty of delicious apples. You may even find you have enough to share with family, friends and neighbours. Apple trees can benefit the whole community.\nAn apple a day may well keep the doctor away. They are very healthy and if you grow your own, there is no need to worry about any chemical pesticides or other toxins. Instead, you can just enjoy picking the fruit and using it in your kitchen.",

        "title": "Again, A Massive Women\u2019s March in Manhattan | Gay City News",
        "raw_content": "February 1, 2018 / National / New York City / Politics\nAgain, A Massive Women\u2019s March in Manhattan\nBY EILEEN STUKANE\nAs many as 200,000 jammed Central Park West, including Columbus Circle outside the Trump International Hotel & Tower, for the second annual Women\u2019s March on New York City. | CHRISTIAN MILES\nThe second annual Women\u2019s March on New York City, held January 20, brought an estimated 200,000 people onto Central Park West from West 61st Street to West 80th Street and beyond.\n\u201cI love the fact that I cannot see the end of this,\u201d said Whoopi Goldberg, speaking from the platform stage at West 61st Street. The reaction to Donald Trump\u2019s election that in January 2017 drew millions onto the streets of 280 Women\u2019s Marches worldwide has now become action, with a movement well underway. The 2018 Women\u2019s March was a call to vote, to run for office, to speak out, and to never be silenced.\n\u201cThe core principles have remained the same,\u201d said Sarah Steinhardt, spokesperson for Women\u2019s March Alliance (WMA), organizer of the New York event. \u201cWe march for women\u2019s rights and gender equality, to empower women to use their voices, and to give them the tools and the knowledge and the information to do so.\u201d\nOn anniversary of Trump\u2019s inauguration, a swelling call to continued action\nVoter registration was key among the aims.\n\u201cOur goal is to register one million women to vote by the November election,\u201d Steinhardt explained, \u201cWe feel very strongly that women should know how to exercise their rights and the most basic example of that is voting.\u201d\nThe second annual Women\u2019s March on Washington demonstrated the commitment of hundreds of thousands to continue the resistance to the Trump administration. | CHRISTIAN MILES\nWhile the marchers would hear the call to vote from speakers who rallied the assembled thousands on a good-for-marching, 50-degree Saturday, they would mostly be moved by the stories of those who were not household names. There were familiar faces who inspired \u2014 in addition to Goldberg, Rosie Perez, Yoko Ono, and New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman \u2014 but the day belonged to women committing themselves to change the culture behind the headlines.\nFrom the stage, newly-elected Atlantic County, New Jersey, Freeholder Ashley Bennett, a psychiatric emergency screener attending grad school, shared how she\u2019d seen incumbent Freeholder John Carman post a meme during last year\u2019s Women\u2019s March that read: \u201cWill the women\u2019s protest end in time for them to cook dinner?\u201d Bennett was offended and decided to run for Carman\u2019s seat.\n\u201cWhen I announced my candidacy many people wrote me off because I\u2019m just an ordinary woman,\u201d Bennett recalled. \u201cI wake up early, I go to work every day, I have student loans, and I have to check my bank account before I do just about anything \u2014 but I had to remind myself that when ordinary people stand up for what they believe, when they come together around a common purpose and a true desire to lift up everyone in the community, extraordinary things happen.\u201d\nSulma Arzu-Brown introduced herself as a Garifuna woman from Honduras, but she wears multiple hats as director of operations for the New York City Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, co-owner of Boogie Down Grind Caf\u00e9 in the Bronx, and author of the children\u2019s book \u201cBad Hair Does Not Exist!\u201d\nHonduran immigrant Sulma Arzu-Brown was among the day\u2019s speakers. | CHRISTIAN MILES\nOn the stage with her mother and two young daughters, Arzu-Brown spoke emotionally of the sacrifice her mother made by leaving her and her brother behind in Honduras to come to the US. \u201cI stand on the shoulders of my mother,\u201d she said. \u201cWe are creating a path for our children that lets them know that we are not just people of color, that we are people of beautiful color, that we belong to the human race and we come from beautiful places that we cultivated with our bare hands.\u201d\nAlthough the #MeToo movement was not mentioned by name, the ability to speak out about the pain of sexual harassment and abuse presented itself. From her wheelchair, Nadina LaSpina, an activist for people with disabilities, told the marchers that the disabled are not spared from sexual assault by medical professionals.\n\u201cI was made to feel that I should be grateful because I was not as good as a non-disabled woman,\u201d she said, the injustice clear in her voice. She also pointed out that in the struggle for equal pay, disabled individuals earn 37 percent less overall than the able-bodied.\nA hush fell over the crowd when the singer Halsey approached the microphone to share her poem, \u201cA Story Like Mine,\u201d her memories of being sexually assaulted as a child, sitting with her best friend in a Planned Parenthood waiting room after her friend had been raped, being forced to have sex with a \u201cboyfriend,\u201d performing onstage after a miscarriage, and realizing that her celebrity is not a protection from sexual abuse.\nThe unresolved issue of the DACA Dreamers was emphasized during the march, as in this poster by artist Mary Frank. | CHRISTIAN MILES\nThe spoken words touched the generations, from three-year-old Adelaide Carter of Brooklyn, participating in her second Women\u2019s March, this time walking with no need of her stroller, to 89-year-old Upper West Sider Mary Van- schaick, in a Women\u2019s March for the first time with the help of her wheelchair. With Yoko Ono looking on, the singer MILCK performed \u201cQuiet,\u201d a song with the refrain, \u201cLet it out, Let it out now.\u201d\nBarricades removed, women, men, and children, united, surged forward through the streets. An electric energy spread from person to person, especially when the marchers passed Trump International Hotel & Tower at Columbus Circle and then the Trump Parc on Central Park South, shouting chants: \u201cNot a creepy tweeter, we want a leader,\u201d \u201cLove, not hate, that\u2019s what makes America great,\u201d and the repurposed, \u201cLock him up!\u201d\nMany of the signs, such as artist Mary Frank\u2019s poster painting \u201cDon\u2019t Tear Families Apart,\u201d showed concern for the current crackdown on immigration and support of the DACA Dreamers.\nThe banner \u201cMarching For Everything We Hold Dear\u201d was held at one corner by Lynn McMahill from Washington Heights who said, \u201cI don\u2019t know all the people holding the banner with me. People just joined in to help and, really, that\u2019s what this is all about, people joining together.\u201d\nLGBTQ partners and friends, mothers marching with daughters, aunts with nieces, sisters marching with sisters and brothers, wives with husbands, the march had a feeling of family. Chandra Turner, who lives in Westchester, brought her 11-year-old daughter Madeline, \u201cbecause I wanted her to be here and witness this and not feel alone. I wanted her to see that she is not the only one who feels the way she does, that there are other people who are standing up for equality. She is worried about children being deported who were brought here. Her father is not an American citizen. It\u2019s scary to think about what can happen with this administra\u00adtion.\u201d\nThe day was peaceful, with the NYPD only a subtle presence, the sky devoid of buzzing helicopters, the focus being on the power of one\u2019s voice multiplied by thousands.",

        "title": "Castlevania (Franchise) - Giant Bomb",
        "raw_content": "Castlevania Box Art (NES)\nCastlevania is a video games series developed and published by Konami. The series first debuted on September 26, 1986 in Japan, with the release of Demon Castle Dracula for the Nintendo Famicon. A different version of the game, Vampire Killer, was released for the MSX2 platform a month later. Castlevania had to wait for its North American release on the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1987 before it gathered any International recognition. The series soon became a recognized landmark in action platforming games and has since gathered a rather large cult following. The Castlevania series is highly regarded among gamers and has remained popular since its original release. While it was known in Japan as \"Akumajo Dracula\", or \"Demon Castle Dracula\", the English name \"Castlevania\" was not meant to mean anything, aside from suggesting the game's setting of a castle and being reminiscent of \"Transylvania\", the traditional home of Count Dracula. However, twenty-eight years after the release of the original game, the term came to mean something in-universe, when 2014's Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 put the player in a modern-day setting, a human metropolis built atop the ruins of Dracula's castle called \"Castlevania City\".\nThe early games in the Castlevania series borrowed material and influences from classic horror cinema. Later, the series was influenced heavily by Gothic fiction and dark romanticism, and the most recent Nintendo DS outing has adopted an anime-inspired art direction.\nThe Castlevania series is one of Konami's most famous and successful franchises, and various games has been released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Sega Mega Drive, Sega Saturn, PC Engine, PlayStation, Playstation 2, Xbox, Nintendo DS, Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, PSP, MSX2, C64, Sharp X6800, and PC platforms.\nThe Belmont Family\nThe Belmont bloodline is sworn to oppose Dracula in all his various forms. In most Castlevania games, the main character is of Belmont decent; if not, the Belmonts are usually present in the form of supporting characters. The main weapon of choice for the Belmont family is the ancestral whip, named \"Vampire Killer\". It has been said that only members of the Belmont family can use the whip; anyone else will eventually die after using it.\nDracula, as seen in the Castlevania series.\nDracula has been the main antagonist throughout the Castlevania series, though the portrayal of the character has varied over time. Dracula's full name is Dracula Vlad Tepes. He was originally depicted as a standard villain, but the character became much more dramatic as more titles were released. Dracula has always played an important role in the series; his legacy stays even in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, a game taking place after he was defeated and slain once and for all. In the games where Dracula is present, he often dresses the way the original Dracula was conceived: a black suit with a long cape.\nThe first outing of the Castlevania series, the original Castlevania for the NES, was a typical platform game in where the player controlled the game's protagonist Simon Belmont, a descendant of the Belmont Clan (see characters section). Simon ventures inside Castlevania, a vast demonic castle ruled by Count Dracula, where he fights supernatural beasts on his way to Dracula. He eventually makes his way through the castle interior to the top of the Castle, where the final boss fight traditionally is (most often, Dracula himself) in the Castlevania games. Belmont has to slay the evil Count Dracula using a family relic passed down generation to generation named the \"Vampire Killer\", which was blessed with the power to destroy vampires and other creatures of the night. Simon and the game's other heroes also possess secondary weapons, powered by hearts, which can be found by destroying candles (and enemies in later games).\nA different version of the game, Vampire Killer, was released for the MSX2 computer platform a month later. This version introduced Metroidvania elements, allowing open-world exploration within a fortress environment, much like Metroid earlier that year.\nThe first sequel, Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, introduced several RPG elements, such as a non-linear world the player was free to explore and revisit, the ability to purchase supplies, equipment and weapon upgrades in various small towns, and (more importantly) a leveling up system.\nThe third game, Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, returned to the traditional style and gameplay of the original game while updating it with new features such as alternate paths with new stages and multiple playable characters. It also introduced support characters, allies to fight alongside with the Belmonts together against Dracula and his evil minions.\nThe biggest turning point for the series in terms of gameplay mechanics and physics was the release of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. By using a wide-open world that the player was free to explore, similar to that seen previously in its predecessor Castlevania II as well as Super Metroid, Symphony of the Night popularized what is now commonly referred to as the \"Metroidvania\" style of gameplay, where the player is allowed to roam free in the game's environment but was only allowed access to a small number of areas at first. The rest of the game's areas are reached by doing certain tasks, such as completing a boss fight or finding objects and new abilities that let the player access new areas. This, combined with console RPG elements such as experience levels, hit points and magic points, usable items and the collection of new powers and abilities, weapons, armour and various items defines this style.\nIn addition to reinventing the technical aspects of Castlevania, Symphony of the Night adopted an entirely new art direction for the Castlevania world in which the games took place and the characters within them. With the joining of illustrator and concept artist Ayami Kojima onto the development team beginning with Symphony of the Night, the design underwent a total transformation into an elegant, beautiful appearance inspired by the European Baroque art periods (a style popular in Japan), effectively ending its previous Gothic horror theme. As such, the characters' dress and condition evolved into grand ensembles including flowing jackets and vests, and the imagery, landscape of the castle, and other game locations became lush and lavish.\nThe two Nintendo DS Castlevania games' art style reverted back to a more anime-inspired and simpler style similar to that of the original Dracula X: Rondo of Blood. Through this, Konami hoped to broaden the player demographic by persuading the (presumably slightly younger) DS gaming audience to not be put off by the otherwise mature image of Kojima's art.\nThe first games in the series made with 3D graphics were Castlevania (64) and Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness, both on the Nintendo 64. The reception they received was mixed at best, and sales were lackluster. These games are not as highly regarded by fans and are not often recognized or referred to positively. Symphony of the Night, as well as Dawn of Sorrow & Portrait of Ruin, both on the DS, also occasionally used 3D backgrounds.\nSeries creator and director Koji Igarashi has stated his interest in returning to the more traditional style of the earlier games in the series, but left Konami before he was able to implement this questionable decision.\nIn 2010, the series' increasingly complex timeline was wiped clean with a reboot for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, taking place in 1047 and depicting the quest of Gabriel Belmont, the first member of the family in this new universe. Lords of Shadow abandoned much of the framework of the previous games, and instead told Gabriel's story in the form of a character action game similar to God of War. Although the gameplay and storyline were critically praised, Lords of Shadow was criticized for its lack of traditional Castlevania elements, such as losing a large, explorable map in favour of a series of linear levels that players can replay with new items in order to get to treasures that were previously out of reach. Additionally, some fans of the original storyline took offence with the controversial ending.\nIt was followed by the Nintendo 3DS title Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate in 2012, a much more traditional side-scrolling, map-exploring affair, and 2014's Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 for the PS3, 360, and PC. Although Lords of Shadow 2 is primarily a character action game like the original Lords of Shadow, it implemented many changes to make the gameplay more like the traditional games in the franchise, such as making the world consist of two large, fully explorable regions that the player could freely wander about in, although the storyline does prod the player along a single linear path. It was, however, criticized for the questionable inclusion of stealth sequences that were generally regarded as unnecessary and somewhat frustrating.\nIt was officially stated that Lords of Shadow 2 would be the final game in the reboot series, though it currently remains to be seen whether the franchise will go back to the overcomplicated original storyline, start over a second time with another reboot, or even whether that was a simple marketing lie and the next game will still take place in the Lords of Shadow universe.\nOriginal Chronology\nWhen Koji Igarashi took over as producer for the series, he revised the timeline and removed Castlevania Legends, Castlevania (64), Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness, and Castlevania: Circle of the Moon. Reasons for these changes have never been clearly stated.\nWith the release of Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin however, Konami of America included a pre-order bonus \"20th Anniversary\" package that included a Castlevania series timeline. This timeline re-added all the games previously omitted besides Castlevania Legends. This timeline was altered once again the following year on the official Japanese Castlevania series website. This is the most current official timeline, and is what is listed below. Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia was not out when the timeline was made, but has since been retroactively added by the community.\n1094 Castlevania: Lament of Innocence\n1476 Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse\n1479 Castlevania: Curse of Darkness\n1576 Castlevania: The Adventure\n1591 Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge\n1691 Castlevania / Castlevania Chronicles\n1698 Castlevania II: Simon's Quest\n1748 Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance\n1792 Castlevania: Rondo of Blood / Castlevania: Dracula X / Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles\n1797 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night\n18??

        "raw_content": "Somaliland Immigration Detention Profile | Global Detention Project | Mapping immigration detention around the world\nSomaliland Immigration Detention\nSomaliland, an autonomous region of Somalia and an unrecognized self-declared state, is a destination, transit, and source country for migrants and asylum seekers in the Horn of Africa. The arrest and detention of undocumented foreigners is common as the authorities seek to restrict the flow of transit migrants. Immigration-related detention tends to last for only a few days and migrants are deported as quickly as possible.\nSomaliland Immigration Detention Profile\nSomaliland, an autonomous region of Somalia and an unrecognized self-declared state, is an origin, destination, and transit country for migrants in the Horn of Africa. Many Ethiopians and Somalis travel through Somaliland to Puntland or Djibouti en route to the Gulf States. Somaliland also serves as a destination for economic migrants and asylum seekers form Ethiopia. The arrest and detention of migrants is common as Somaliland authorities attempt to restrict the flow of migrants and decrease the amount of unauthorized foreigners residing in the territory.[1]\nUndocumented people detained in Somaliland are usually held in police stations. Detention tends to last several days at most because Somaliland authorities do not have the resources to support long-term detention. Authorities seek to either deport intercepted migrants or transfer their care to the International Organization for Migration, which occasionally provides assistance to apprehended migrants in the territory. However, people intercepted in Loya\u2019ada, a border town between Somaliland and Djibouti, face the possibility of unlimited detention depending on when they can be transported back to the Ethiopian border.[2]\nMigrants have reportedly been detained at Loya\u2019ada police station (based on its geographical location, on the border between Djibouti or Somaliland, it is unclear to which territory this facility rightly belongs). Conditions at this station, according to the Somaliland Mixed Migration Task Force, are very poor.[3] Migrants have also been detained at the Central Police Station in Hargeisa. One refugee who was detained at the Central Police Station told Human Rights Watch that six injured refugees detained there \u201chad not received medical assistance for three days before they were released.\u201d[4] The conditions in Somaliland\u2019s prisons, where migrants are also likely detained, have been described as inhumane by the UN Independent Expert for Somalia.[5] Issues include a lack of water, sanitation, and ventilation. In 2013, Somaliland authorities permitted a Prison Conditions Management Committee that had been organized by the UN Development Programme to visit prisons. The UN Assistance Mission in Somalia\u2019s Human Rights Unit has also been allowed to visit prisons.[6]\n[4] Human Rights Watch, \u201cSomaliland: Stop Deporting Ethiopian Refugees,\u201d 4 September 2012, https://www.hrw.org/news/2012/09/04/somaliland-stop-deporting-ethiopian-refugees.\n[5] UN Human Rights Council, \u201cReport of the Independent Expert on the Situation of Human Rights in Somalia, Shamsul Bari,\u201d United Nations, A/HRC/21/61, 22 August 2012, http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/HRBodies/HRCouncil/RegularSession/Session21/A.HRC.21.61_en.pdf.\nMaximum length of detention for persons detained upon arrival at ports of entry\nPolice Government-local 2012\nHuman Rights Watch, \u201cSomaliland: Stop Deporting Ethiopian Refugees,\u201d 4 September 2012, https://www.hrw.org/news/2012/09/04/somaliland-stop-deporting-ethiopian-refugees.\nSomaliland Government: http://somalilandgov.com/\nUNHCR Somalia Website (English): http://www.unhcr.org/afr/somalia\nUNHCR Somalia Country Page: http://reporting.unhcr.org/node/2550#_ga=1.41311074.1574793458.1466088472\nIOM Somalia: http://ronairobi.iom.int/somalia\nSomaliland Press: http://www.somalilandpress.com/\nSomaliland Law: http://www.somalilandlaw.com/",

Those letters represent the apex of a significant process that starts early in high school, but really gets intensified in the junior and senior years of high school.\nSchool counselors advise freshman and sophomores to focus on their current studies and establish a good pattern of achievement in core and elective courses. Juniors are advised to take the PSAT test, which is given on the third Saturday of October and the preceding Wednesday. Homeschool and school-at-home students typically take the PSAT and SAT tests at a testing location near them.\nThe PSAT is a comprehensive, standardized assessment that provides students an opportunity to begin addressing areas where they may need extra attention as they prepare for life beyond high school. Taking the PSAT as a junior helps the student to prepare for the more important college admissions test, the SAT.\nThe SAT is the benchmark standardized assessment of the critical reading, mathematical reasoning, and writing skills that students develop during high school and that they will need to be successful in college. Nearly every college in AMerica uses the test as a common and objective scale for evaluating a student\u2019s college readiness.\nThe SAT test is administered monthly from October through June. Go to: http://sat.collegeboard.org/register/sat-us-dates for upcoming dates of all the SAT exams and their registration policies and dates to register by.\nThe Global Courseware closes the college readiness gap with assessment and instruction that is aligned to the most popular course placement tests used by colleges and universities today. The College Readiness courses will help prepare students to begin their postsecondary learning experience. Homeschool parents can take advantage of the user-friendly assessment capabilities and skill-refreshing coursework that the system offers.\nThe Global Courseware College Readiness program is a set of self-paced online courses designed to assess, diagnose, and improve student academic readiness in four college-level core content areas of Arithmetic, Elementary Algebra, Reading Comprehension, and Sentence Skills. The courseware is aligned to major assessments like SAT, ACT, and ACCUPLACER. The courseware works by providing student diagnostic testing to identify deficient content knowledge, prescribing lessons to address those deficiencies, and conducting follow-up testing to determine if the student has mastered those areas.\nCopyright \u00a9 2013 J.

        "title": "Understanding the Essentials of Basement Insulation | GNI",
        "raw_content": "For most homeowners, insulating the basement is about keeping warm in the winter months and cool in the summer months. But there's more - basement insulation is also about energy efficiency for the entire house, and about energy savings from one season to the next. By any measure, insulating the basement is truly one of the better home improvement projects. Unlike other home improvements which are more cosmetic, basement insulation can deliver cost savings in the form of reduced utility bills. In other words, it's a home improvement project that can be \"paid down\" over a number of years. Like any other part of the home, product selection and installation are important considerations when insulating the basement. A reliable insulation professional can advise on which product is best, and which installation would be best suited. In fact, some basements may even need repairs prior to insulating, especially if there are water entry problems. Whatever the case, a professional contractor is highly recommended - someone who understands basement insulation and can deliver optimum outcomes. And today, many experts are suggesting Spray Polyurethane Foam as the ideal for basements. The bottom line with a well-insulated basement is to improve energy efficiency. This will quickly translate into reduced heating and cooling bills, as well as annual savings that can offset the cost of the insulation project itself. With Spray Polyurethane Foam, for example, the R-Value in the basement will be enhanced; airflow and air leakage will be averted; and moisture will be prevented from accumulating. All in all, the basement will be sealed and insulated for optimum energy efficiency and consumption. The home will be more comfortable and the savings on utilities will be notable. For basements, Spray Polyurethane Foam is unrivaled as an application. It will deliver more benefits in one install than any comparable insulation product. And for the professionals, SPF has become their product-of-choice. In terms of budget, however, SPF can be costly, and may not be a suitable option for every project budget. Here, a \"hybrid\" application could be the answer - a combination of SPF and another insulation product. It's an installation that is cost-effective and with excellent outcomes. As well, the \"hybrid\" application also allows for a reasonable \"pay-back\" period. The ultimate in basement insulation includes both the basement floor and the foundation walls. This approach goes well beyond any other installation, and allows for product performance that is truly unmatched. But whatever the final install, a professional insulation approach will provide a basement with the fundamentals. First, the space will be completely airtight and with no chance for air leakage. Second, there will be no possibility for moisture to collect. And third, the finished space will have the highest possible R-Value. In short, professional management will bring the best outcomes. As it is, Spray Polyurethane Foam is the best insulation product on the market today. Expertly installed, the long term benefits and annual savings make the upfront cost a worthwhile investment.",

        "raw_content": "Panel urges DHS to prepare for presidential transition\nBy Chris Strohm\nAn advisory council to the Homeland Security Department issued recommendations Thursday aimed at ensuring homeland security operations and programs are not compromised during the transition to a new presidential administration later this year, including a list of actions Congress should take.\n\"There will be a change of administration no matter which political party prevails,\" said William Webster, chairman of the Homeland Security Advisory Council and former CIA director. \"This will be the first time that DHS has been required to meet the challenges of a presidential transition,\" a report from the council's administration transition task force said.\n\"Due to the critical nature of its mission ... it is important that DHS take action now to ensure a seamless and agile transition to new leadership and optimization of the new leadership's ability to assume operational control of the department.\"\nGlenda Hood, who chaired the task force, noted that terrorist attacks occurred around governmental transitions in Spain in 2004 and in the United Kingdom last summer. She said the task force believes the most vulnerable time for the United States is 30 days before the upcoming presidential change and 60 days after the transition. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said his leadership team will examine the report and its recommendations.\nThe report makes recommendations in the areas of threat awareness, leadership, congressional oversight, policy, operations, succession and training. On congressional oversight, the report recommended that the Senate form a select bipartisan group from existing oversight committees to expedite confirmation of all presidential appointments to national security positions in the Homeland Security Department.\nThe report also said Congress should implement an unfulfilled recommendation by the 9/11 Commission to consolidate congressional oversight of the department. Homeland Security officials say they now report to 86 different House and Senate committees and subcommittees. Chertoff told the council Thursday that one of the biggest problems with congressional oversight is that different committees have competing agendas. \"We get a lot of conflicting congressional direction as opposed to consistent congressional direction,\" he said. The report also recommends that Congress pass the department's fiscal 2009 appropriations bill \"much sooner\" than it did the fiscal 2008 bill, which was rolled into an omnibus spending bill that was enacted only a few weeks ago.\n\"Congress should also review the department's fiscal 2008 budget to ensure sufficient resources are available and allocated for transition activities,\" the report added. \"This must include pre-election and post-election transition crisis management exercises.\"\nThe report adds that Congress should work with the current and incoming administrations to reduce the number of senior positions at the department filled by presidential appointees.",

        "raw_content": "How Travel Has Changed My Life\nWhen I was eighteen years old, I had been saving for several years and finally strapped on my backpack and departed on an around the world flight. It changed me in an irreparable way because I have barely been able to stay in one place since that time. And the more I do, the more I desire. This post is a guest post by Melissa Jennewein explaining how travel has changed her life for the better. Thank-you for sharing Melissa.\nThe Ways that Travel has Changed My Life\nTravel will change you. It will change you in subtle ways, and it will change you in dramatic ways. Sometimes it will change you in ways that you don\u2019t fully recognize or even comprehend in the moment, but after some time on the road, you will start to notice these things that seem to magically appear into your reality. After reflecting on two years of backpacking solo through over 25 countries, I realized that travel has indeed changed my life in so many ways, and for this article, I have compiled a list of the Top 10 ways in which travel has challenged and therefore changed my life.\nLosing my consumer \u201cmust have\u201d things attitude.\nBefore I started backpacking around the world, I owned many things. I had a lovely flat in Los Angeles, California, that was filled with art, furniture, clothes, electronics, and many useless knick knacks. After donating all of these \u201cthings\u201d, and living a life with just the bare minimum needed to survive, my perspective on consumerism changed and I began to see what really mattered in life, and no surprise here \u2013 it was never those \u201cthings\u201d.\nLearned to communicate in new ways.\nI have always enjoyed language as it is through this that we, as humans, are able to communicate and share with each other. When I left for my travels, I only spoke English fluently and un poco Espanol. After spending some time in Europe I can now speak conversationally in 3 other languages and have learned the art of playing charades (which I always loved) and sign language which can be quite useful when you meet someone that does not share the same language. This has been a fun and often humorous way to meet more of our fellow humans on this planet and I have learned to enjoy every moment of it.\n\u2018Scary\u2019 places no longer scare me.\nComing from a military family where my father fought in many foreign wars, and with all of the news about terrorists, during my travels I decided to visit some of these places to form my own opinion. What I discovered is that yes, many cultures and traditions are much different than my own, but they are in no way like what I have been conditioned to believe they were. My experience was quite the opposite actually. I lived with several culturally diverse families and even though many of their traditions did not mesh with my own, I learned to appreciate the differences and gain a new perspective of the culture and these places and the people no longer frighten me.\nLearning to sail a boat.\nI have always wanted to experience the freedom of sailing and letting the wind take you in the direction that it pleases, and during my travels I had the opportunity to do just that. On a 52 foot catamaran, I learned how to tack and jibe, tie various knots, read GPS and wind charts, and to be comfortable being in silence for extended periods of time. Sailing taught me patience, it taught me calmness, and it taught me to quite literally \u201cgo with the flow\u201d which are lessons that automatically bring peace to my soul and I am grateful for.\nBefore I started traveling, I would eat just about anything which for me was a good thing because when you are venturing into new territory, you are also venturing into new foods. However, it was during my travels through North Africa where I witnessed the mis-treatment of animals used for food first hand. It was this direct experience that led me to change my mind, and my diet. I started a vegetarian diet and am enjoying all the lovely fruits and vegetables without the guilt of supporting the mistreatment of animals that can surely be found in most flesh factories and on some farms.\nGrowing my own food.\nWhen I was in Bavaria (southern Germany), I volunteered on a farm for some time with an amazing family who taught me all about permaculture. It was hard work, but when it came time to enjoy the fruits of my labor, I really enjoyed the food much more and have found a deeper appreciation for it and the earth which sustained it. Not only that, but I have found a sense of freedom in knowing that I can provide nutrients for myself and know for sure that they are organic, and chemical/genetic modification free.\nBuilding alternative living and sustainable shelters.\nLearning how to build yurts in Germany, tree houses in France, and earth ships in Guatemala have been incredible experiences for me. Building shelters that are in harmony with the planet and creating them from the ground up has opened up my imagination to so many possibilities for the future of how we might one day live with the earth, instead of destroying it every chance we get. Using natural, found materials as well as recycling old tires, bottles and cans, plastic containers and more, I learned how to create amazing structures that made me feel more connected with the earth and shelters that I actually enjoyed being in for extended periods of time. These new structures gave me the sense of living with the environment instead of being separately contained from it and packaged neatly in a box.\nFree from media influence.\nI imagine that anyone who has traveled extensively knows this one all too well. Being free from the influence of television and creating your own experience of life daily is absolutely the best way to live in my opinion. I am no longer controlled by advertising and agenda driven news that is created to keep me separate from myself, but rather I am in tune with what moves my heart and soul, and to me, this is true freedom. Being present in the moment and free to decide what experience I would like to have next is more exciting to me than what the latest fashion is, what Miley Cyrus is up to, or what America thinks about whose voice is the best (or the worst).\nLearned to appreciate all people.\nBefore travelling, I had many opinions about what people were like in the world \u2013 mostly from stories I had heard, or from programs on television. Sadly, I must admit that not all of my opinions were even close to correct. I have learned that there all kinds of people from all kinds of places, and that there are people with good and bad intentions everywhere. I have learned to appreciate all people in the world based on their actions, and not on a stereotype that usually is not true to begin with.\nMet a spiritual guru who showed me the matrix.\nThis is quite possibly the one thing that changed my life more than all of the others during my travels thus far. I met a guru who I ended up spending roughly a year with, travelling between Europe and the North Africa Sahara; a man who showed me a path to see the matrix that we live in. I saw how experiences can either paralyze or propel people. I learned how to break through my own unique limitations and integrate past experiences into my system to create limitless possibilities. I began to see patterns and behaviors in myself and others that were both destructive and creative, and learned how to elevate myself to a higher state of consciousness and thought which in itself is priceless.\nIt is through travel that I was able to have a better understanding of myself, this planet, and other people and beings. I was able to create my own reality and see what moved me, what inspired me, and what kept me going. Traveling is the best education that you can invest in, and I hope that this list has inspired you to go out and find what it is that you love. I\u2019ll leave you with this disclaimer though \u2013 it may not at all be what you thought it might have been before. So go out and enjoy this ride we call life!\nMelissa started her solo backpack trip around the world in 2012 after a series of traumatic events fueled her desire to live her life to the fullest. A former preschool teacher and administrator, Melissa loves to design programs to teach children how to see their full potential, chase their dreams, and harness the power that resides in each and every one of them. She is a writer, dancer, dreamer, designer, editor, and adventurer who has traveled to over 25 countries with just a backpack, her macbook and camera, and a desire to gain a global education. Being so completely inspired by what she has found and continues to find, she started writing and sharing these experiences with the world on her blog www.onenomadwoman.com. It is her hope that in doing so she would encourage others to chase their dreams not matter how impossible they may seem to be. Melissa believes that we are all magnificent creators and dreams of a day when the world falls gracefully into balance and harmony.

        "raw_content": "Imagine Learning 12 Things in 12 Months\nSadly, I have always found myself interested in everything, but persistent in nothing. While I have a strong interest to learn many things, I never take the time to do so. When I heard of The Spin-Off Project created by Mirha Masala, I was very impressed.\nImagine choosing 12 things that you would like to do more often, perform better at, or learn from scratch. Then imagine throwing those twelve things into a list and devoting a year of your life to actively pursuing one desire each month. Does this sound crazy and impossible? Or just plain fun?\nThis is exactly what Mirha is currently doing. I absolutely love her idea and I am envious of her dedication to pursue such a project. She kindly took some time out of her intense schedule to answer a few questions about her current project. I hope you like her answers even half as much as I do.\nLearning Kiteboarding\nHi Mirha, I LOVE your project. Can you tell me more about it and what gave you the inspiration to start it?\nThe Spin-Off Project is about choosing 12 things that you love to do, would like to do more, or always wanted to learn. It initially started as a way to organize my time and life better. There were so many things that I wanted to do and to try, but time just kept passing me by without proper dedication to anything. On top of that, my mind kept dwelling on my true passions. I had not found them yet, or had only been introduced to them for a short time.\nPeople say that doing what you love in life is the most important thing. There I was, not knowing what I loved, and unable to use my time in a way that I would find out.\nSo, I figured that immersing myself fully into one subject for a month would solve my extensive to-do-list issue, give me time to concentrate on learning new things, and in addition, answer my question: is life as good on the other side as I imagine? How will I feel about snowboarding every day for 30 days when I actually do it?\nIt is one thing to think you want to be somebody, or to have something, but it is a completely different thing to try to get it, and on top of that, totally something else to have it or to be it. I have realized that I absolutely love kiteboarding, but that I do not want to be a professional kiteboarder. I simply do not have the passion to get out on the water each day to practice for hour upon hour. Something else that I do not have, is regrets, because I have tried it. That is what The Spin-Off Project gives me: a chance to experience 12 of my possible lives.\nWhat have you done so far and how successful have you been?\nI have finished five spin-offs: 1. Learning Spanish, 2. Being an Artist, 3. Kiteboarding, 4. Helping Someone, 5. Learning Salsa in Cuba, and I am about to start my 6th spin-off: Setting up The Girl With The Blueprint, which is going to be a unique online city guide. I can say that every month has proved to be a success so far; from speaking Spanish with my family in laws to soaring through the air with my kite.\nIf I look at the project as a whole, I could not be happier. During these months I have felt more alive and fulfilled than ever. To me, this is how life is supposed to be.\nHow much time do you dedicate to your learning?\nMore than a year ago, Mr. G (the boyfriend) and I decided to quit our office jobs and start an internet company of our own. This enables us to travel around the world, to work on anything that we want, and to make our own time schedules. As you can imagine, this freedom helps in making time for The Spin-Off Project.\nEach spin-off gets one month assigned and within this month, I try to dedicate as much time to it as possible. In the end, that is what The Spin-Off Project was about for me, immersing myself fully in a subject, experiencing twelve of my possible lives. However, one cannot be learning Spanish ten hours per day, and your body simply cannot handle so many hours of kiteboarding either.\nWhen I am not actively busy with a certain spin-off, I am writing about my experiences, doing interviews, editing videos, connecting with people and sharing the project with my readers. Next to this, I am the owner of The Girl With The Blueprint, and this online guide can take up as much of my time as I allow it to. Also, traveling and moving around eats up some of my time, and no matter how far I fly, I too have to keep track of my administrative and social duties.\nHow difficult is it for you to focus on your list and have you ever felt like giving up?\nIt is not difficult at all, I love doing The Spin-Off Project. It is doing everything that I want and love in life.\nWhat I do sometimes find difficult, is to allocate time to write about the project. On the other hand, sharing the project also keeps me going. It\u2019s as if I didn\u2019t just make a promise to myself, but also to the rest of the world. Having the project online keeps me on track. There are all these wonderful people out there who send me messages telling me that they like my writing, to wish me good luck, or to let me know that The Spin-Off Project has inspired them. That is truly priceless, and it is because of them that I keep sharing my experiences.\nWhat are you going to do when you finish your list?\nThe first version of The Spin-Off Project is going to go on until summer next year. After that I will still have the guide, The Girl With The Blueprint, which is going to take more of my time as each day passes.\nMr.G and I are also going to get married around this time, and are also very excited about starting a family. It is only reasonable to think that The Spin-Off Project, in its current form, will be affected by it. Think less time, less travelling and of course, less extreme sports.\nI do not think too much about it to be honest, these things have a way of working themselves out, and there is so much that you can do, perhaps \u2018The Spin-Off Project Knocked up,\u2019 who knows? It definitely feels like I will be doing a second version, but perhaps with some kind of twist to make it fit my future lifestyle.\nOne thing that I will definitely be including is a blueprint on how to start a Spin-Off Project of your own, including financial advice, but also with the possibility to hire me as mentor.\nLearning Salsa in Cuba\nDo you think that anyone could do this?\nYes, of course, it is easy! Let me give you a couple of examples.\nYou can do The Spin-Off Project in its purest form when you, for example, take a sabbatical. Or if you were saving money to go around the world for a year, you could combine traveling with a bucket list. Traveling pur sang is definitely enjoyable, but I believe that many people have either already experienced it or believe that just roaming around the world is perhaps not enough. With a Spin-Off List of your own, you can give your travel experience a greater value. For example, if you would like to travel in India, then why not combine it with one month of meditating, a month of learning to cook Indian food, another month of living in Mumbai etc. You see what I mean? You are still in India, still traveling, but ticking some items off from you bucket list as well.\nHowever, The Spin-Off Project is greatly customizable, you really do not even have to leave your home town nor your office job. When I look at the things that I have ticked off my list so far, I see that I could have stayed in Amsterdam, if I had wanted or needed to. I could have learned Spanish, been an artist, learned to kiteboard, helped someone and learned salsa, all without ever leaving the country.\nMoreover, you need to understand, that you do not need to be rich nor do you have to save up money first to do a Spin-Off Project. Some things cost very little money or none at all, like meditating, learning Spanish, helping someone, being an artist etc. Moreover, you do not need full days off, meaning that you can finance your Spin-Off Project through your full time job. Huh? I do not need free time? No, not necessarily, just customize your Spin-Off Project. Go about it in parallel. For example, add an extra month per passion, which will give you more dedicated time per spin-off alongside your daily job. You see? It is all possible, and these are just a few examples. I could help you out with many more. You just need to want it. And why would you not, knowing that The Spin-Off Project will help you to:\none) Figure out what your real passions are.\nFind out what makes you happy. Your whole universe could change when you realize that there is nothing more valuable than dedicating your life to doing the things that you love to do most. Happiness is what matters. You might find what I am saying strange now, but when you find that one thing or that certain lifestyle that is You, you will be unable to make sense out of your \u2018old life\u2019.\ntwo) Understand how true your dreams are.\nFor 26 years, my mom made me believe that she wanted to travel; however, life had spun her in a different direction, and she just never managed to. It was all too late she said. Not so long ago, I told her that I was going to buy her a ticket to Mexico. She told me not to. It took me a week and rivers of tears to convince her and my dad to come. You might think you want something, but what happens when you get it?\nYou always dreamed of learning to tango? What happens when you commit? What happens when you are dancing tango? You still like it? Stop the talking. Stop the dreaming. Trying is the only way to find out.\nthree) Work on your bucket list.\nPut it all on paper. It is different when you do. Start with a list of 12 and make it possible. Do not wait until the only thing that is left on your list, is regret.\nfour) Live a life based on happiness.\nYou will be doing things that you love doing the most, or that you have always wanted to try. Now, please, tell me that is not how life is supposed to be?\nIf you had the power to change two things about the world, what would you change?\nFirstly, I would abolish borders, so that everybody has a fair chance at everything. And, if I am not mistaken, Jamie, you would be cheering me from the sideline. Something about visa fees? [I fully support this. I believe that the world should be open, allowing free movement so that everybody can travel and live wherever they want.]\nThen, I would make everybody do what they love. Except, you know, war lords, rapists and those kind of folks.\nIf you only had twelve more days left to live, what would you spend them doing and what words of wisdom would you leave with the world?\nIt goes without saying that I would want to spend time with my love, family, and friends. However, I am thinking that you\u2019re asking me if I have some great unfulfilled wishes. Not really.\nI have danced in the open air with my feet in the sand, I managed to get out of puberty for the sake of my parents and nowadays I make them laugh. I have skinny dipped more than once, I have met Oprah, I have lied, I have partied ten days in a row, I have had nose freezes i.e. the slush puppy and sushi-with-too-much-wasabi ones, I have drunk beer out of a teapot, I have shopped without limit, I have slept in a desert, I have driven around with the music up real loud, I have told people the truth and apologized more often, I bungee jumped and hated it, I have laughed a lot, I definitely know sunsets, and I found the love of my life.\nThere is nothing left that I need to do per se, before I die. The only thing that comes to mind, is that I would go straight to my 8th spin-off month, called The Bucket List of Little Big Things. It includes things that I always meant to do, but still have not. Like, writing up a testament, telling my family and friends how much it exactly is that I love them, interviewing my parents, but also learning how to whistle and how to do the cartwheel. I definitely need to learn how to do the cartwheel before I die.\nAs for some words of wisdom, you are warned, I am not the quote type.\nI believe people need to lighten up about work, conventions, family, friends, and especially about the meaning of life. Nothing really matters, you know? You are not going to achieve anything, no matter what you do or who you are. You need to enjoy what you are doing right now, not when you \u2018get rich\u2019 or any of that nonsense.\nSo, tell me, would you mind to die, right now?\nYour answer should be \u2018no\u2019, though obviously not a suicidal one, but a fulfilled \u2018no\u2019. That answer would mean to me that you are in the right place, doing something that you love. Are you? Are you happy? Or just a bit confused now? Allow me to explain.\nObviously, I would not be overly excited to die now, but it is because I am thinking about friends and family, not knowing if they realize how much I love them. Like I said, I am going work on that. What I want to say is that, in a way, I would not be too unhappy about dying now. Sounds morbid and very weird. But you have to understand death as something inevitable, unexpected, and, try to see the concept less dense. Yes, less dense. The thing is, at the moment, I am doing something that I love. I am writing about The Spin-Off Project, contemplating life, and hoping to inspire you to do the things you love. Then, as I look to my left, I see palm trees, the sea, and a beautiful sunny day ahead. It is windy, meaning that if do not die, I can go kiteboarding in my lunch break. But, I did so yesterday, so I am fine. Then, when I look to the right, I see a handsome face that is the love of my life. I am here with him, at this very moment, not in some office, not \u2018on my way to\u2019. I get to live with him, every day of my life. Until now, that is, until this moment that I die, but I am dying while doing everything that I love, in the right place with the one great love, who, by the way, just happened to kiss me. It does not get better than this, at least dying does not.\nYour life is passing by, and no matter how old you get in years, if you are not doing something that makes your heart go wild, life will always feel too short. What makes dying so hard, is that you thought you had forever. The good thing? It is never too late to stop and start. Ask yourself: would I mind to die, right now? Now, tomorrow, one day you will, so when it happens, you better be doing what you love. You better be happy when you die.\nA big thanks to Mirha for sharing her wonderful insights. In particular her words at the end really touched me and I hope that you felt the same.\nPlease (and really do this because it\u2019s worth it), check out her website, The Spin-Off Project, and follow her updates on Facebook or Twitter.\nMirha Masala 14/06/2013 at 01:09\t- Reply\nThank you for your kind words. You are too kind and way sweet.\nGood luck! You will be awesome.\nWow! What a wise, wise girl (hope she\u2019s not offended at being called a girl, feel like I could call her sage!) I really feel connected to her as a lot of the things on her spin off list are on mine too.\nThe best thing this post has done for me, is that it has made me realise I have been telling my kids\u2019 that it is my dream for us all to go travelling, whilst not actually doing anything much about it. Yes, I\u2019ve been reading travel blogs and trying to get rid of our debt, but I could be doing that for another 20 years.\nOK-tonight, I am going to sit down with my husband and children and explain that this is not some pipe dream, but something we can actually achieve in the not so distant future.\nOff to check out The Spin-Off Project\u2026\u2026.only for half an hour; promise! \ud83d\ude09\n*a sage*\nYes, do it! I\u2019m excited for you.",

In this way it is possible to have direct access to it, and interact with some functions of the smart cell.\nA native APP is an exclusive development for the programming language of the device.

        "raw_content": "New Castle commissioner-elect charged with assault\nA New Castle commissioner, elected earlier this month, was charged with assault last week at the La Grange Walmart.\nCharles Sevier\nCharles Sevier, 49, was charged on Nov. 17 with assault, fourth degree with no visible injury after an incident involving his mother happened at the retail store in Oldham County.\nLa Grange Police were dispatched to Walmart after a report of domestic violence around 4 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 17. Police say that Sevier stated that he had gotten into an argument with his mother about an iPhone accessory and that he \u201ctapped\u201d her on the head to get her attention, according to the arrest citation.\nSevier\u2019s mother claimed to not have any injuries but, due to her dementia, she could not recall the argument, according to police.\nA witness, Michael Thomas Jr., of Sulphur, was with his wife, Linda, when he saw the event take place in an aisle at the grocery store. Michael Thomas told the Local that he and Linda were walking up one of the main aisles when Sevier and his mother, pushing a buggy, walked out of the side aisle ahead of the Thomas family.\nMichael Thomas told police that he saw Sevier strike his mother with a box in his hand and tell her to \u201cget her 75-year-old ass out of the aisle.\u201d Michael Thomas told the Local that he heard Sevier\u2019s mother say, \u201cDon\u2019t hit me,\u201d and that\u2019s when he and his wife confronted Sevier.\nSevier told the couple it was \u201cnone of our business,\u201d Michael Thomas said to the Local. And Michael Thomas responded with, \u201cthe moment you hit her, you made it our business.\u201d\nThomas said Sevier then said he\u2019d \u201chit her again if he wanted to.\u201d This is when Walmart employees stepped in and called the police.\nPolice obtained the camera footage from the time of the incident and said Sevier was seen striking his mother in the head two times.\n\u201cI felt sorry for his mother and mad that a son would hit his own mother,\u201d Michael Thomas said. \u201cIt\u2019s just a sad situation, period.\u201d\nSevier was one of four elected to New Castle City Commission in November. With 157 votes, he received 16.68 percent of the total. Phoebe Thurman-Thompson, Harry Mitchell and Tony Kurtz were also voted onto the commission.\nAccording to the current New Castle Mayor Denny Benham, the Kentucky League of Cities stated that a misdemeanor charge of assault, fourth degree, would not prevent Sevier from serving as a city commissioner.\nHowever, he said, \u201cIf it turns out to be a felony,\u201d Benham said, there may be repercussions.\nA look at the city\u2019s code of ethics, Benham said, did not reveal any consequences for a misdemeanor assault.\nBenham was voted out of the position in the November election. In January, Bobby King will become Mayor of New Castle.\nSevier did not respond to the Local\u2019s call for comment. He posted a bond for $250 on Nov. 18. His arraignment is set for Dec. 3.",

Smart, topical, thought-provoking, and highly entertaining, The Newsroom takes a behind-the-scenes look at a high-rated cable-news program at the fictional Atlantis Cable News (ACN) Network, focusing on the on- and off-camera lives of its acerbic anchor (Jeff Daniels), executive producer (Emily Mortimer), their newsroom staff (John Gallagher, Jr., Alison Pill, Thomas Sadoski, Olivia Munn, Dev Patel, and others), news-division boss (Sam Waterston), and parent-company CEO (Jane Fonda). Season 2 takes place over a five-day period leading up to Election Day 2012, and encompasses numerous flashbacks to earlier events from 2011 and 2012. One of the season's major story arcs involves a wrongful-termination lawsuit made by a staff member alleged to have doctored a report about a suspicious U.S. drone strike. As details about the suit's origin and aftermath emerge, The Newsroom team continues its quixotic mission to \"do the news well\" in the face of corporate and commercial obstacles, and their personal entanglements.\nStarring: Jeff Daniels, Margaret Judson, Emily Mortimer, John Gallagher, Jr., Alison Pill, Thomas Sadoski\nDirectors: Alan Poul, Greg Mottola, Jeremy Podeswa, Alex Graves, Joshua Marston, Lesli Linka Glatter",

        "title": "MICHAEL SCHENKER FEST-Resurrection Nuclear Blast R | HeadBangers Lifestyle",
        "raw_content": "The idea to get his old bandmates Chris Glen (bass), Ted McKenna (drums), Steve Mann (guitar/keyboards), Graham Bonnet, Robin McAuley and Gary Barden (all vocals) together has worked out better than Michael Schenker could ever imagine. Under the name Michael Schenker Fest the veterans toured in Japan, recording and releasing a live CD and DVD. At the time of the release of the DVD and CD I remember writing that this project might not last, but more fool me, I was completely wrong. Michael Schenker toured with this outfit also through Europe and received great critics by press as well as from the audiences that came to the shows. So why stop now? The musicians got together again for a new studio CD and also the singer of Michael Schenker\u2019s Temple Of Rock Doogie White got involved with the project. \u2018Resurrection\u2019 is the result of all this and credit where credit is due: this is by far the best record that Michael Schenker has recorded in a long time. The twelve songs on this record bring back memories of the days gone by. Quality songs, sometimes surprisingly fast and furious with very inspired guitar work from the old master indeed. I think that especially the driving force of Ted McKenna and Chris Glen is largely responsible for the heaviness and pace of the album. These guys are a solid machine and they know exactly where to lay their accent in a song. With four different lead singers at hand it is clear that \u2018Resurrection\u2019 offers a lot of variation in the vocal department. On the rockers ,,Warrior\u2019\u2019 and ,,The Last Supper\u2019\u2019 the four lads combine their singing but each vocalist gets his solo spot on the album. I have always liked the albums that Schenker made with Robin McAuley and Steve Mann at his side but also the record (\u2018Assault Attack\u2019) that was created with Graham Bonnet behind the mike was a highlight, not to mention the first two with Gary Barden, who does, I must admit, surprisingly well on this CD as he was by far the weakest link on the live CD/DVD. And Doogie White is a class act, as we all know. Then there is Steve Mann. His brilliant keyboard display on ,,Take Me To The Church\u2019\u2019 is just breathtaking, that song being the absolute highlight on this CD with Doogie White and \u2018der Michael\u2019 shining like never before. It shall not surprise you that this CD also has an instrumental song (,,Salvation\u2019\u2019) included as that is more or less a tradition. This combination has worked out well, as \u2018Resurrection\u2019 is without a doubt the most inspired Michael Schenker record since ages and it hopefully gives him the confidence and wisdom to make the right choices for the rest of his career. I mean he has probably had more different musicians in his band than anyone else. Personally I believe that when this project has reached its end Michael Schenker should keep Glen and McKenna on board as well as White and hopefully Mann. Maybe that way Michael could make a real \u2018Resurrection\u2019, but this one is already better than I had ever dared to hope for.",

        "raw_content": "Hennikers has experienced criminal defence lawyers who can assist you if you have been charged with a drug related offence.\nIt is an offence in NSW to be in possession of an illicit substance. An illicit substance includes a large number of drugs, including cocaine, ecstasy, MDMA, ice and cannabis /marijuana.\nSupplying prohibited drugs is an offence which carries a penalty of 10 years imprisonment. It is also an offence to knowingly take part in the supply of prohibited drugs. If a person knowingly takes part in the supply of drugs, such as driving another person to and from drug deals, or assisting with packaging and preparing the drugs, they can also be found guilty of the offence, even if they were not involved in the actual drug deal. To \u201csupply\u201d a drug includes not just selling the substance, but other things such as sending, forwarding or delivering the drug.\nNSW also recognises an offence of \u201cdeemed supply.\u201d If a person has in there possession a large amount of drugs, (which is an amount of a prohibited drug which is not less than the traffickable quantity) they are deemed to have the prohibited drug in their possession for supply. There are ways to defend deemed supply charges, including by showing that the person had the prohibited drug in their possession otherwise than for supply, such as for personal use.\nThe cultivation of prohibited plants is also an offence in NSW. This is an offence where a person has grown their own prohibited plant, such as majuiana. The penalties that the court can impose will depend on the amount of plants being cultivated, but in serious cases can lead to the court imposing lengthy jail sentences.\nIf there is a dispute about the substances in question, Hennikers can assist by seeking forensic testing of the alleged drug. The expert criminal lawyers at Hennikers have successfully defended criminal charges after forensic testing determined the substances where in fact not illicit substances. Don\u2019t risk not getting the best scientific and forensic advise in your criminal case.\nThe criminal law defence team at Hennikers has vast experience with drug offences. We can explore all your options to get charges downgraded, or to fight the charges at a defended hearing.",

        "raw_content": "Captive Insurance but Be Careful\nMost business owners want to: build wealth and maximize the value of what is left behind for heirs; protect their wealth to insure that what they have spent a lifetime building isn\u2019t eaten away by taxes, inflation and/or the cost of medical care; distribute their wealth so that their loved ones may be taken care of, and see to it that their assets and possessions go where they want them to go in the time frame they want this to happen. This is the essence of estate planning.\nEventually the business owner leaves the business. If a family member or employee can buy the established business, planning needs to be done years in advance for the best possible results.\nIf an outside buyer is desired, the company should be positioned so that, if a favorable opportunity arises or an unfortunate event occurs, the company is completely ready for transition. In other words, the business should be ready for sale versus up for sale.\nDetermining the value of a business is an art. There are no fixed rules, just general guidelines. All characteristics of the business must be considered. The value, however, is ultimately what a buyer will pay considering all relevant circumstances and bargaining at arms length. This is referred to as the fair market value.\nToday\u2019s would-be sellers are seeing attractive purchase prices offered in currencies other than cash. The purchase might be part cash, and the remainder an unsecured promissory note. But cash is the only sure thing.\nShould the business falter, the remainder of the purchase price may evaporate or become subject to litigation. A sale to the highest bidder is not always the most appropriate sale.\nMost small business owners are so busy running the company they fail to plan for the eventual transfer of the business. By not planning, they jeopardize the futures of the business and, possibly, of his or her family. We are often consulted at this time, but, at this point, it is almost too late to help.\nSuccession and estate planning involves various questions of tax, law and business planning. The business owner(s) should make the final decisions after being provided with various types of information. If planning is done early, the process is not difficult and the results are maximized. No one plans to fail, but many fail to plan.\nHow to Use a Captive Insurer to Save Money\nSmall companies have been copying a method to control insurance costs and reduce taxes that used to be the domain of large businesses: setting up insurance companies to provide coverage when they think outside insurers are charging too much or coverage is simply unavailable. A small company can also use this as a tax reduction strategy, with the ability to get money back tax free.\nOften, they are starting what is called \u201ca captive insurance company\u201d\u2014 an insurer founded to write coverage for the company, companies, or people who founded it.\nHere\u2019s how a captive insurer usually works. The parent business creates a captive so that it has a self-funded option for buying insurance, whereby the parent business provides the reserves to back the policies. The company then either retains that risk or pays reinsurers to take it. The price for coverage is set by the parent business; reinsurance costs, if any, are a factor.\nIn the event of a loss, the business pays claims from its captive, or the reinsurer pays the captive. A captive insurance company would be an insurance subsidiary that is owned by its parent(s).\nThe Better Way for Large Tax Deductions\nThere are a number of significant advantages that may be obtained through sharing a large captive (\u201cGroup Captive\u201d) with other companies. The most important is that you can significantly decrease the cost of insurance for your insureds, as compared to a standalone captive, through this arrangement. The second advantage is that Group Captives do not require any capital commitment.\nBy sharing a large captive you only pay a pro rata fee to cover all General and Administrative expenses of the insurance company. The cost for administration is very low per insured as compared to forming and operating a traditional stand alone captive insurance company. By renting a large captive, loans to its insureds (your company) can be legally made. So you can make a tax deductible contribution, and then take back money tax free. Sharing a large captive requires no significant financial commitment beyond the payment of premiums.\nOperation of a standalone captive insurance company may not achieve similar cost saving results that a small business could obtain through sharing a large captive. More importantly, group captives require little or no maintenance by the insureds, and can be implemented in a fraction of the time as compared to stand-alone captives.\nIf you do this correctly, you can reduce insurance costs and obtain a large tax deduction, with the ability to get money back tax free.\nBusiness Succession with a Captive, Be Careful - Slippery Rock Gazette February 17, 2008\nBusiness Succession Planning; Facilitating the Sale of the Business How captive insurers can reduce taxes and insurance costs By Lance Wallach, Industry Consultant",

        "raw_content": "Everyone feels stress occasionally, and for some of us, it can seriously disrupt health and well-being. While some stress can be a good thing to help us power through difficult or dangerous situations, those who have daily stress usually see it from family life or the workplace. Lots of stress can lead to health issues like tension headaches, high blood pressure, heart problems, diabetes, skin conditions, depression, and anxiety.\nStress can also affect hearing loss and tinnitus \u2014 and can sometimes cause them.\nAccording to new research from Sweden, those who report stress related to poor sleep, bad health, or the workplace are also more likely to experience hearing loss and tinnitus. This might not come as a surprise to those who experience tinnitus, because the two are closely related. For many it\u2019s a vicious cycle: Stress makes tinnitus more noticeable, which creates more stress in daily life.\nThose with a hearing loss that affects speech comprehension also know the struggle of straining to understand spoken words, particularly in a noisy environment. Understanding speech in noise is a constant struggle for those with a hearing impairment, but new technology has focused specifically on making speech in noise clearer through the use of directional microphones and technology that emphasizes soft speech sounds.\nStress is an unfortunate part of life, but if we don\u2019t learn to manage it, it can control our lives to a greater degree than we realize. Hearing aids have been shown to improve quality of life and to lessen stress for those with a hearing impairment \u2014 including tinnitus. The more you wear them, the better you can train your brain to understand speech and make your tinnitus symptoms less noticeable.",

        "title": "Art Modell announces Browns are moving to Baltimore - HISTORY",
        "raw_content": "Art Modell announces Browns are moving to Baltimore\nOn November 6, 1995, the owner of the Cleveland Browns football team announces that he is moving the team to Baltimore. The team owner, Art Modell, had purchased the Browns in October 1960 for $4 million. He loved his team and the fans, he said, but Cleveland Stadium was a mess and the city, after building a new baseball stadium and a new basketball arena, didn\u2019t seem inclined to fix it. \u201cThey took me for granted,\u201d Modell said, \u201cuntil I had to pull the trigger.\u201d\nCleveland fans were devoted to their team\u2014average attendance at home games during the 1994 season was 70,000, and was even higher than that during the 1995 season\u2014and they were furious at Modell when they heard the news. At Browns games, they held up homemade signs protesting the move. They heckled unprintably from the sidelines. They wrote angry letters to the newspaper. Cleveland\u2019s mayor vowed to \u201cfight to keep the Browns so we don\u2019t lose our team in the middle of the night\u201d (a reference to the now-Indianapolis Colts\u2019 disappearance from Baltimore in 1984). A county referendum would have provided nearly $50 million in revenue from a \u201csin tax\u201d on alcohol and cigarettes, but for Modell, that wasn\u2019t enough. \u201cIt\u2019s just not the answer,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t do the job.\u201d\nBaltimore, on the other hand, offered Modell a lulu of a deal: One year in the Colts\u2019 old Memorial Stadium and then a brand-new, $200 million stadium next to Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The new stadium would have 70,000 seats, 108 luxury boxes and 7,500 pricey \u201cclub seats.\u201d Modell would get a hefty chunk of money from seat license fees, which fans had to pay to get season tickets, along with percentages of parking and concessions. Best of all, as far as Modell was concerned, the team wouldn\u2019t have to pay any rent. This, he argued, was good for everyone, because it meant he had more money to pay free agents, which in turn would bring better players.\nIndeed, just five years after they started playing in Baltimore, Modell\u2019s team\u2014now called the Ravens\u2014made it to the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, a businessman named Alfred Lerner brought an NFL expansion team\u2014that is, not a team relocated from another city\u2014back to Cleveland in 1999. So the Browns are back, but resentment toward Modell and the league remains. As one fan put it: \u201cTo me, the Cleveland Browns are a symptom and the NFL is their disease\u2026 They\u2019ll take a sport like this and turn the fans into background for the cameras. And if they can do it to us, they can do it to anyone.\u201d\nhttps://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/art-modell-announces-browns-are-moving-to-baltimore\nCanadians take Passchendaele\nAfter three months of horrific fighting, the Third Battle of Ypres finally ends when Canadian forces take the village of Passchendaele in Belgium.

Within a couple of hours\u2019 drive of Stuttgart, the Forest has of course gateaux, plus hiking, skiing, lakes and museums.\nCologne Cathedral is the county\u2019s most visited landmark, and the city offers a host of museums, parks and its old town. Berlin meanwhile is known for its architecture, culture and nightlife.\nFor car lovers, there is a huge choice to visit, including Stuttgart\u2019s Porsche factory, Munich\u2019s BMW factory and Volkswagen\u2019s Transparent Factory in Dresden. If racing is more your thing, then there\u2019s the Hockenheim racing circuit and, of course, the famous Nordschleife or N\u00fcrburgring.\nWhile Germany is known for having autobahns with no speed limit, this actually only applies to around half of the network. You will also need to make sure that you are carrying your driving licence with you if you are driving. The German police have powers to ask foreign motorists to deposit a sum of money when they enter the country. If they refuse or are unable to pay, their vehicle can be confiscated, so be careful and, like in many other European countries, you need to remember to drive on the right!\nImmortalised by synth-pioneers Kraftwerk there is an extensive motorway (or autobahn) network linking the larger towns. In fact, there are more than 8,000 miles of autobahn. As long as you are not driving a truck, there are no motorway tolls to worry about.\nGermany is a land of contrasts - with countryside, villages, cities, woods, mountains and lakes. The Alps offer skiing, walking and breathtaking views, while the more urban areas are known for their architecture, museums, parks and culture. There is plenty to see, but you may also want to visit some neighbouring countries, like Austria, Switzerland and Luxembourg.\nSouthern Germany is famous for its many lakes fringed by sandy beaches, whose clear waters are perfect for fishing, swimming and watersports. If you are a Disney fan, you may recognise Neuschwanstein Castle near to F\u00fcssen in south-west Bavaria, the inspiration for Sleeping Beauty\u2019s castle. The castle also features in a number of movies, including the Great Escape and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.\nMotorway service areas are also well appointed if you need to stop, with fuel, restaurants, toilets and shops. Some of the larger ones benefit from hotels, showers, playgrounds and even chapels.\nGermany really does have a lot to offer, but here are some of the highlights of the central European country.\nBerlin - Germany\u2019s capital city lies in the north-east of the country. Once divided by the Berlin Wall, the city is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe. Attractions include the majestic Brandenburg Gate, the heavily modernised Reichstag, UNESCO World Heritage Site Museum Island and the 1960s Berlin Television Tower.\nThe capital of Bavaria and the third largest city in Germany, Munich is famed for its Englischer Garten (English Garden), the biggest city park in the country.\nFor beer lovers, Oktoberfest is the place to be, attracting nearly six million visitors who work their way through 7.3 million litres of beer.\nIf exotic animals are more your thing, then give the 89 acre, Hellabrunn Zoo a try. With over 750 species of animal, the zoo also boasts footpaths, playgrounds, and picnic spots.\nStraddling the River Rhine, Cologne has a twin-spired cathedral that is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country.\nIf you have the stamina, then climbing the 509 steps to the top takes nearly an hour. If that\u2019s not enough for you, then there are also 36 museums and more than 100 galleries in the city.\nPopular locations in Germany\nCar hire in Berlin Schoenefeld Airport\nCar hire in Berlin Tegel Airport\nCar hire in Bremen Aiport\nCar hire in Cologne Airport\nCar hire in Dortmund Airport\nCar hire in Hanover Aiport\nCar hire in Stuttgart Airport\nCar hire in All German Locations",

        "raw_content": "Jude Law on Tackling School Shootings in 'Vox Lux': \"If Not Now, When?\"\n11:18 AM PST 12/6/2018 by Kirsten Chuba\nRaffey Cassidy, Jude Law and Natalie Portman\nThe film, starring Natalie Portman, Jude Law, Raffey Cassidy and Stacy Martin, tells the story of a pop star who survived a mass shooting as a young girl and is still dealing with the aftermath.\nIn recent years, as mass shootings have become more and more common in the United States, there has been national debate over when the right time is to discuss gun control and preventative action. According to the cast and crew of Vox Lux, the time is now.\nThe film, starring Natalie Portman, Jude Law, Raffey Cassidy and Stacy Martin, tells the story of a pop star (Portman) who survived a school shooting as a young girl and is still dealing with the aftermath.\nAt the Los Angeles premiere on Wednesday, held at the ArcLight Hollywood, Law spoke about why this story is one that needs telling today. \"I think a few people have said 'Oh, is it too soon to make a film that starts and the protagonist of which is a shooting?' Well unfortunately, if not now, when?\" the star told The Hollywood Reporter on the red carpet. \"The truth is there's a shooting \u2014 certainly in this country \u2014 almost every month and what they often say, and look, I hope I'm not putting words into the mouths of people who have suffered these awful experiences, but I'm pretty confident they would say not sweep it under the carpet and say now is not the time to talk about it, but rather now is the time to talk about it and now is the time to look at how these things affect us.\"\nLaw, who plays Portman's manager over the course of her turbulent musical career, added that director Brady Corbet was able to use the setting off a mass shooting \"as a jumping point to another relationship we have, another obsession we have, which is celebrity, and this world that we all seem to aspire to, which is being famous, being beautiful, being successful, without looking at the underbelly and what that costs.\"\nCorbet, who also wrote the film, explained that he was inspired to tell the story after living in Europe for several years and returning to the U.S. shortly before the 2016 election, as the campaigns between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were intensifying.\n\"It was written in response to that and this kind of strange convergence of pop culture and politics, which is not brand new, it's happened slowly,\" the director said. \"I mean, Reagan was an actor of course, and politicians are usually celebrities first and politicians second, but now with a reality star in the White House it's seemed to have reached some type of absurdist boiling point and everyone is trying to talk about it and react to it.\"\nHe also explained his decision to set the film in present day, but consciously omit the Iraq War and the Obama era from the storyline.\n\"The thing is without 9/11, we don't have the Trump administration, because 9/11 paved the way for the sort of exploitative race-baiting and bigotry that this administration promotes and preys on,\" Corbet said. \"That event was so cataclysmic and iconic that unfortunately it's an easy button to press on the political trail because everybody was affected by it, so of course you can provide easy solutions by eradicating anyone that doesn't believe what you believe or look the way that you look.\"\nThe director went on to break down working with Portman, calling her \"a very, very technical actor who arrives uncommonly prepared,\" and the challenge of creating large-scale pop performances for the film.\nBenjamin Millepied, Portman's husband, choreographed her dance numbers, which Corbet said was necessary because of the four-week window they had to craft the 13-minute musical scene.\n\"I think the fact that the two of them live together really made it possible because they were practicing constantly for four weeks,\" he said. \"It would've taken three months of preparation if they hadn't been under the same roof, so it was also very fortunate that Ben agreed to do it.\"",

The question is, how do you handle that guilt when you're trying to be a caregiver and a person in your own right, too?\nIt's about Her, Not You\nThe big thing to remember in this situation is that the guilt that is being shoveled your way isn't really about you. It might feel as if it is and your loved one might tell you that it is, but it's not. It's really about your loved one and her own feelings of loss and unhappiness with her situation. She may feel left out in all aspects of her life, causing her to level a heap of guilt your way. You can't take it personally because it's really not about you.\nBe Firm about Your Own Plans\nMost caregivers aren't taking enough time away, period. So when you do have other plans, be firm about them. They're your plans, which are a part of your life. You still have your own life, even though you're a family caregiver. You can't give up living your own life because your loved one needs help at this stage of her life.\nAvoid the Guilt\nWhile you're protecting your boundaries, avoid feeling guilty. There's no reason for you to take on that guilt, even if it feels as if you should. You haven't done anything to feel guilty about in making these plans for yourself, so the guilt isn't yours. Let it go.\nSeek out Support for Yourself\nYou'll need support for yourself, especially in the learning stages of this process. You might find it helpful to find a support group or a counselor with whom you can talk about what is going on. It's also a good idea to find experienced home care providers to stay with your loved one while you're supporting yourself. This enables you to let go of any residual guilt that your loved one is alone or doesn't have someone to help her while you're otherwise occupied.\nLet your loved one know that you love her and care about her, but that the guilt isn't going to work.\nIf you or an aging loved one are considering hiring homecare in Cheswick, PA, please call the caring staff at Home Helpers.

        "raw_content": "Following in the footsteps of cultural workers such as Zora Neale Hurston, Beryl McBurnie, Pearl Primus and Katherine Dunham, Honey Pot Performance forefronts African diasporic performance traditions. We draw upon a central notion found in performance studies, black feminist discourse and sociology: non-Western, everyday popular and/or folk forms of cultural performance are valuable sites of knowledge production and cultural capital for subjectivities that often exist outside of mainstream communities.\nMeida Teresa McNeal is Artistic and Managing Director of Honey Pot Performance. She received her PhD in Performance Studies from Northwestern University and her MFA in Choreography & Dance History from Ohio State University. Over the past two decades, she has produced numerous creative projects as both a solo artist and with Honey Pot Performance, with works performed in Illinois, Rhode Island, Ohio, California, and Trinidad. Positioning her work as an Independent Artist and Scholar at the intersection of performance studies, dance and critical ethnography, she has taught courses in dance, critical performance ethnography, and black diasporic cultural production at Northwestern University, Brown University, Governors State, and Columbia College Chicago. Meida also works with the Chicago Park District as Arts & Culture Manager supporting community arts partnerships, youth arts, cultural stewardship, and civic engagement initiatives across the city\u2019s parks and cultural centers. Whether creating new work, facilitating a workshop, building community partnerships and programs around shared public space, teaching, or writing, for Meida all roads lead to the merging of theory and practice into lived applications that cultivate dialogue, decolonize knowledge, and shift consciousness.\nAbra M. Johnson is the Education and Dramaturgical Coordinator, as well as a co-founding member of Honey Pot Performance (HPP). A proud Chicagoan and Westsider, she has held a variety of local educational activist posts for two decades.

Participants in high school are designated as Apprentice Artists while those in or beyond college are Studio Artists.\nThe chart below shows which opportunities are available to each type of participant.\nSTUDIO ARTISTS: APPRENTICE ARTISTS:\nParticipation in 2 Master Classes Participation in 1 Master Class\nParticipation in at least 2 scenes Participation in at least 1 scene\nCast in the Opera(s) May be cast in the opera\nas chorus or as needed\nThe Little Patuxent Opera Institute was one of the biggest factors in pushing me to make my living as a musician. I did the LPOI program when I was transitioning from a 9-5 construction job to becoming a freelance singer/musician. The program was the right push that I needed at that time. I got to meet other motivated singers, learned music that was important to have on my resume, and had the opportunity to be part of a wonderful community of colleagues and mentors.\nI memorized more music in my summer at LPOI than I had in the previous entire year. I learned the role of Guglielmo in Cos\u00ed, the duet from Don Pasquale, David in Samuel Barber's Hand of Bridge, and the opening scene from Old Maid and the Thief. This was in addition to preparing selections for the masterclasses with distinguished singers/teachers. That showed me that I had the ability to learn and memorize at a high level when the pressure was on. I was pushed right to the edge of my ability and had to teach myself to dig deep and put in those extra hours. These skills certainly came in handy when I was learning/performing the role of Papageno for my first professional Mozart role (and my first full role in German).\nAnother one of the great joys of the program, was getting to work with Braxton Peters and Ron Gretz, from Annapolis Opera. After meeting them I was able to land an ensemble role in AO\u2019s production of South Pacific and more recently, a principal role in their production of La Traviata. I also now work with a few of my teachers from LPOI singing in the Washington National Opera chorus.\nJoseph Baker (LPOI 2016, 2017 Guest Artist)\n\"When I came into LPOI, I was having a number of technical problems with my singing, but the teachers here helped me so much, and I was amazed at how much I had improved by the end of the program. Added to that, the classes were so well-rounded, so not only did I improve my voice, but also my acting and staging skills. And having a class about singing as a business and auditioning made me feel like I had a head start in the professional world. I felt so prepared to start school after the program, and my teacher noticed the difference as well!\"\nSarah Nalty (LPOI 2014, 2017)\nI enrolled in the Little Patuxent Opera Institute (LPOI) in both 2016 and 2017, and I can safely say my time in the program has been one of the best educational experiences in my professional development. In 2016, I prepared and performed my first full-role as Ferrando (Cos\u00ec fan tutte) as well as scenes from Le docteur Miracle and L\u2019amico Fritz. In 2017, I performed the role of Nelson Deadly (Too Many Sopranos, by Edwin Penhorwood) plus scenes from La fille du regiment, La boh\u00e8me, and a musical called A Gentleman\u2019s Guide to Love and Murder. Each time in the program has been very demanding on me musically, and I have always loved the intensity and diversity in repertoire I had the chance to tackle.\nAs I continue my development as a professional singer, I credit much of the foundation I have with my time in the program. I was treated as a young professional, and as a result I learned what is expected of a professional in terms of preparation and professionalism. And since LPOI brings outside professionals currently in the industry, I have had the chance to connect with people such as Braxton Peters and Ronald Gretz from the Annapolis Opera Company. Working with them led to my first opera chorus contract with Annapolis Opera in their production of La traviata this past spring.\nI was even fortunate enough to connect with my current voice teacher through participating in LPOI. He has been absolutely invaluable in refining my technical foundation as a singer and preparing me for my graduate studies, and I never would have met him without participating in the program. The skills I have honed with him and in the program have definitely had a direct impact on my acceptance to graduate programs such as the Indiana University: Jacobs School of Music, Northwestern University: Bienen School of Music, Texas State University, and the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC).\nMy experiences in LPOI have pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of, but I also always felt safe in being vulnerable and stretching myself as an artist during the program. The faculty and staff foster an immensely supportive environment. Their commitment to vocal health, the well-being of the students, and the learning experience of each participant during the program really led to a tremendous growth in my abilities as singer. I would not be where I am today without the Little Patuxent Opera Institute, and I would highly recommend enrolling to any aspiring singer.",

        "title": "Humphrey, Arkansas Consumers Are Struggling With Consumer Debt - Could The Best Debt Settlement Organization Be What You Need?",
        "raw_content": "Debt Settlement Programs In Humphrey, Arkansas - Can It Succeed? How To Locate The Ideal Debt Settlement Organization In Humphrey, Arkansas\nHas financial debt become a headache for you? Are you unclear about what to do now? Have credit card bills grown to be an obstacle in your capacity to get by from week to week? If you replied in the affirmative to these points, you need to look into the debt settlement opportunities in Humphrey, Arkansas.\nDebt settlement is the ideal solution to the difficulties of many individuals who are overcome by debts.\nThese days, you will find increasing numbers of people fighting credit card debt, medical debt, education loan debt, and business loan debt. Debt settlement companies are experiencing more business. Many people have got such a massive amount of debt relative to their earnings that debt settlement companies are unable to work with them.\nIn accordance with your own personal situation, you might find that the smartest choice is to deal with a debt settlement organization. When you have debts from $10,000 to $100,000 or higher, you may find relief in debt settlement programs. The debt could be due to living expenses, student education loans, or credit card debt.\nWhy would people choose debt settlement programs anyway? To begin with, it's among the best methods to steer clear of individual bankruptcy. Personal bankruptcy is an answer to your debt, but it'll follow you throughout your lifetime. It's clear that most would prefer to stay away from it. The negative impacts of consumer bankruptcy persist considerably longer than the decade of having the ability to see it on your credit history. You have to answer the question of previous individual bankruptcy on loan requests, credit card applications, and even job applications, for a lifetime. You should not have to stress about getting rejected because you filed for consumer bankruptcy at one time in your history. Not telling the truth about prior bankruptcy proceedings may seem like the best sensible strategy for many, but it's fraud. If you happen to misrepresent facts, you may end up in jail, forfeit your career, and suffer various penalties.\nThe sensible answer is to protect yourself from personal bankruptcy to begin with by choosing settling debt instead. For most of us, debt settlement is a last measure. The implications of bankrupties are far more severe than opting to work with a debt settlement organization.\nWith your credit profile, debt settlement won't look as bad as consumer bankruptcy, and it only remains for 7 years rather than 10. After it comes off of your credit profile, there is not any record from it. It can not impact your potential to do the things you would like to do.\nMany feel that debt settlement cheats creditors out of their owed funds, yet this is not really the purpose. This process is intended for people that are not able to repay whatever they owe. That's why it is often looked at as a last resport approach. Debt settlement assists people who are genuinely unable to pay off what they owe. It is more than likely you've actually paid back above what you spent in fees and interest.\nCreditors are aware that they are able to gain more from you with debt settlement than they will with personal bankruptcy. With bankruptcy filing, they're more likely to receive absolutely nothing. This means that a lot of collectors are going to consider settlement solutions to help you to avoid a bankruptcy proceeding. It is in their best interest.\nThis is definitely the way to repay debts in a lot less time. On a good debt settlement plan, you can pay back your debts in 2 to 4 years, and you might be able to repay them in a year or even less. You are already aware that paying back consumer debt is a lot longer approach without a debt settlement strategy, and this already isn't an option for you. This is faster than the other debt relief alternatives available. It will take 3-5 years to complete consolidation plans, credit counseling plans, and personal bankruptcy .\nYou can preserve your name and your credit score if you opt for a debt settlement program in lieu of bankruptcy. There won't be any public record of debt settlement. Those that wish to know if you've opted for consumer bankruptcy can find that it's surprisingly easy to find out. The public can access consumer bankruptcy information by using federal government bankruptcy courts or, just to ensure it is somewhat easier, with internet subscription options. Consumer bankruptcy also damages your credit scores. Your credit report will reveal debt settlement, but your credit score won't be lowered.\nYou will not be required to give up credit cards. In some cases the debt settlement agreement will prevent you from using your charge cards, but in many instances you will still be able to make use of them. This might be very helpful if you should encounter an urgent situation and need to continue using your credit cards. Owing serious money to credit card banks could cause it to be really difficult making use of current credit lines or acquiring newer credit cards. The debt settlement objective can be defeated if the charge cards are being used.\nYou can cause it to be much simpler to coordinate what you owe. Once your debt is settled, keeping track of multiple monthly payments to several collectors at diverse interest levels won't be a burden. It can be reduced into just one monthly installment.\nEnjoy more affordable payments and interest rate. Once you consolidate all of your debts, you could have the ability to get a much more convenient monthly installment, with a much more affordable rate. You'll be able to better care for yourself with a little more money in your wallet.\nAre There Any Harmful Drawbacks to Debt Settlement?\nThere's unquestionably adverse consequences to a debt settlement program. You could have to pay income taxes on the cancelled debts, not all settlement deals will be accepted, and there will be a visible impact on your credit standing. It could be a substantial headache to implement a a debt settlement program package, when compared with simply paying back your debts yourself. However, if you're unable to pay off your debt yourself, it can still protect you from consumer bankruptcy. You'll want to consider the strengths of debt settlement programs with the damaging effects. debt consolidation\nThere is a chance you might lose your personal property. If you fail to make your loan payments and used your automobile or family home as collateral for your debt settlement program, you could forfeit it. Collateral is often required to obtain the loan. After all, you are not a trusted creditor, and they'll need some type of guarantee that they'll be compensated should you default or never pay them.\nYou will need to know about any buried costs. Reduced payments and rates do not guarantee that you will not find yourself paying a lot more than you expect with debt settlement programs. These things come at the cost of a longer loan repayment period. If you're indebted for a longer period , you can wind up having to pay more money through a longer period of time.\nThere are tax-associated implications to consider. You might have to claim forgiven debt as taxed income, according to your position. If the credit card providers and creditors report the resolved debt, it will be considered to be taxable income.\nThe cost should include 10 percent to 20 percent of the starting balance in addition to a small application fee. It should be payable over one or two years. You may pay around two thousand dollars on $20,000 of financial debt. Lowering your consumer debt by 50% makes it worth the cost. Look at the math for a moment.\nA debt settlement service contacts your creditors to make deals to help you. Many collectors will say yes to a settlement deal which is half of the actual balance. Final results can fall 40% to the average of 60%. Without the settlement service, the collectors will probably receive absolutely nothing, so they're willing to accept these substantial reductions. Whenever people end up in such a serious predicament, they could go under at any moment. Creditors and banks do not know what to expect. Somebody who goes through struggles and life obstacles might not have the ability to pay for their bills. They also are aware that it is very unlikely for them to be given anything at all if they do not accept an offer.\nSettlement isn't an option for individuals that are a bit troubled with financial debt. It is a heavy undertaking for people who are drained of alternate options. You'll find it more difficult to receive new financial loans and credit because of the impact on your credit profile.\nWhen you have other available choices, look into them thoroughly. If you are looking in the face of personal bankruptcy, decide on settlement instead. You must explore other available choices before you decide to choose anything as extreme as debt settlement. This is not the best strategy for anybody that simply wishes to avoid paying their debts. This is just worthwhile if you're completely past other available options.\nYou will need to look into the price, the reputation, and the standard of the debt settlement company you hire. Ensure that you pick one who has superior marks in each area.\nYour credit rating is going to be temporarily damaged, but will improve once the debt is repaid through settlement. This may require under one year, as it will for approximately one fourth of debt settlement customers. Another three-quarters or so get it done in a two- or 3-year period. It can take time to put together a lot of money. You should have routine communication from your settlement company. Many will touch base once a month, even when it isn't needed. An excellent debt settlement service is an ally in your struggle against consumer debt.\nHow To Locate A Debt Settlement Service In Humphrey, Arkansas\nCheck with your state Attorney General and customer protection agency before choosing a debt relief program. This is the best way to see whether there are any sort of complaints with the organization you're considering.\nDefinitely investigate the organization. Find out what sort of service the business offers, how much it costs, and how long it will call for to receive the outcome you are looking for. Figure out what you will be charged and avoid significant up front costs.\nYour best option is to work with a company that offers in-person service. A lot of businesses will give in-person, online, and telephone service, but you should preferably decide on an organization that provides all of these. It is good to get phone contact, but you need to have the ability to talk to the specialist personally as well.\nDo not assume that a company is free, affordable, or even just reputable simply because it might have a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153non-profit\u00e2\u20ac\u009d status. In truth, some debt settlement organizations charge ridiculously large rates, that they might attempt to cover up.\nExamine critiques of the company whenever and wherever you are able to in the run-up to choosing one of the businesses in your narrowed down list of solutions.\nhttp://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/arkansas/hoxie/index.html http://www.howtodebtsettlement.com/arkansas/huntsville/index.html",

        "raw_content": "Hi, Tipster...\nOkay, you were nice enough to go through the smaller browser detect script with me, now let's hit a larger and much more involved browser detect script. Both scripts do the same thing, they look at the browser the user is running and send the user to a specific page.\nThis larger script is better than the dinky one I wrote in two ways: First, it looks not only at the \"navigator.appName\", but also at the navigator version number. Second, there is a catch-all at the end that sends the browser to a page if it is none of the above. Mine didn't have that. I just assumed if the browser wasn't Netscape Navigator, then it must be Internet Explorer. This doesn't assume. It has code that will send a third browser to a more text-based version of the page.\nClick to See the Script\nTo start with, let's just look at the general concept of the script. Click back and forth to follow along. The author has been nice enough to include a great deal of comments along the way which will make this much easier.\nFirst, a variable \"r\" is created, but not given any actual value.\nSecond, the variable \"browser\" is created so you don't have to keep writing navigator.appName again and again.\nA variable for version is set up. In the first case it's \"4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.0b1; Windows 95).\"\nNow the IF statement: If the browser is MSIE and the navigator.appVersion (the equal to navigator.appName except this one returns the version) is equal to the variable \"version\" we just set up, then...\nGo to the parent.location.href msiepage.html.\nAnd finally, if all this is true, say that \"r\" is equal to 2.\nNext, there is the Else statement that will happen if the above If statement is not true.\nBut what if neither of them are true? Then the script keeps reading along. Notice the If statements keep coming. There are seven more.\nBut where are the other Else statements? If there's an If, there has to be an Else, right? Wrong. There is an Else on the page, yes, but that's just good JavaScript form. If you set up a series of If statements in which one of them is guaranteed to be correct, then why would you need the Else? One of the If statements will be correct. That's what is happening here.\nThe only difficult part of this script is knowing what version numbers are out there. You already know that \"Netscape\" denotes the Navigator browser. Well, now you can see that \"Microsoft Internet Explorer\" denotes the MSIE browser. The easiest way to get the correct text for the navigator.appVersion is to look at the \"About\" menu item under Help on your browser. Luckily, this author was nice enough to find that format for us.\nRead through the script. You'll see exactly what's happening along the way, until you get to the last block of testing script. It starts with this line: if (r !=1 && r !=2).\nThat's the catch-all. It's saying, \"If it isn't any of the above, then do this.\" Notice it deals with that \"r\" variable I seem to have just glossed right over. I'll explain what it means next time.\nNext Week: That \"r\" Variable",

        "raw_content": "Virtually in the Action: How Technology Is Changing Sport Photography\nThe Olympics in Rio next month is sure to be a huge spectacle of sporting achievement and success. However, that success won't be limited to the competitors taking part, but will also be true for the new technology being used to capture the event and share it with the world.\nAndrew Saunders Senior Vice President, Creative Content at Getty Images\nThe way we view and experience sporting events is changing. With growing access to virtual reality (VR) devices like Google Cardboard and Oculus Rift, it's becoming possible to experience VR at home and at an affordable price. Furthermore, it's now possible to watch 360 degree videos on smart phones in an increasingly intuitive way and this is being offered through publishers and social media platforms like Facebook. People's need to feel closer to the action is driving the demand and development of imagery and technology that can get us closer to the real experience. Nowhere is the demand greater than around sports.\nWhile new technology is allowing us to experience sporting events as if we are there, social media is providing a way to host and share that content. Earlier this year the NFL announced its live streaming partnership with Twitter. The partnership allows a global audience to view all games of the 2016 NFL Regular Season for free, live and across all platforms. When you consider that Facebook was also fighting for this deal for its Facebook Live platform, it's clear to see that live streaming sports through social media is an area the big tech and media companies want to own.\nTo show an example of this, at the end of April, American Football player Alex Morgan live streamed a whole women's football match on Facebook, and received 663,000 views, 26,000 likes and 7,000 comments. For a game that would struggle to make it on to traditional TV channels, it was a great success and has played a part in ensuring that the women's game is reaching a wider audience than would have been possible before live streaming on social media platforms was available. Whilst we've long wanted access to up-to-date reports and data, we now want this to be as close to the real life event as possible.\nThis change in consumption is driving the evolution of the technology on the ground. In 2012, Getty Images first revealed it's increasing use of 360 degree technology when covering the London Olympic Games. The results brought an experiential and immersive element to the games, something that had never been seen before. This was repeated again at this year's Wimbledon tournament, where our photographers shot 360 degree imagery of various moments and of the venue such as Centre Court. These images are hosted through the Oculus app, giving the viewer a dynamic experience of what it's like to be right in the action of Wimbledon.\nGetty Images is also the International Olympic Committee's official photography partner and for the Games in Rio this year we'll be increasing the deployment of VR and 360 degree cameras to our team of photographers. This content will again be hosted and viewable on the Oculus App platform.\nAs people's desire to get up close and have a richer experience of the action in sports increases, the techniques used by photographers and the distributing media companies will need to evolve. We want to feel part of these events and be able to share with our friends. New technologies for generating this deeper content and the improvements required to social media that make it easier to host and share this content will go together to mark a major turning point in sports photography.\nMORE: photography olympics oculus rift virtual reality",

        "title": "This May Be Tory Feminism: The Second Woman PM Is Not Margaret Thatcher Mark II | HuffPost UK",
        "raw_content": "This May Be Tory Feminism: The Second Woman PM Is Not Margaret Thatcher Mark II\nMay, as the second woman Conservative PM, needs to be set against a rather different historical backdrop. We have yet to see how well feminist Toryism can work in practice, and whether May will succeed to 'iron' out the obvious inconsistencies and 'iron' in a new ethos to the social and intellectual fabric of the Conservative party.\nJulie V Gottlieb Reader in Modern History at the University of Sheffield\nIs Britain's second woman Prime Minister really the direct heir to Margaret Thatcher? Theresa May has certainly been represented as such, and she has been measured against Thatcher's towering but also heavily tainted legacy. The day before May walked into No. 10, Metro (Tuesday 12 July 2016) placed their vital statistics side by side in \"Maggie V May: How They Compare.\" The Thatcher factor looms large.\nThe comparison will no doubt be made when such a rare and remarkable milestone is reached. There will inevitably be points in common between these two women who defied the odds to rise to the top job in their party and to the top job in the nation.\nNonetheless, there are quite significant differences between the two, and tracing the political ancestry on the basis of their common gender is misleading. A generation plus apart, May is not Thatcher's imitator in the field of gender politics--she is not Margaret Thatcher mark II.\nWe can accept hybrid political concepts like Tory democracy, One Nationism, and compassionate conservatism, or that neoliberals can counterbalance economic conservatism with social progressivism (Cameronian Conservatism, in fact). So why do we find it harder to fathom Tory feminism? Both feminism and contemporary conservatism of the pragmatic-opportunistic variety are more protean than might be expected.\nMay does not share Thatcher's apparent rancour for feminism. Thatcher was more than a let-down as the first woman PM from the point of view of the Women's Liberation Movement--she was a disaster. The Iron Lady called feminism a poison. She felt under no pressure to foster sisterhood or promote women. Only one woman was appointed to her Cabinet, the Baroness Young. 'Attila the Hen', as Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand called her, was only really at ease in the company of men.\nBeatrix Campbell's brilliant The Iron Ladies: Why Do Women Vote Tory (1987) exposed Thatcher's contempt for other women, and the ways in which she reserved power and greatness for herself. But as Campbell also showed, paradoxically, this did little to threaten women's electoral support for her party.\nIn contrast, Theresa May is as comfortable in her kitten heels as in the t-shirt of Fawcett Society (\"this is what a feminist looks like\"). Her newly formed Cabinet has the most women of any previous Conservative administration. May has other feminist-friendly credentials too: she co-founded with Baroness Jenkin Women 2 Win in 2005; she was Minister for Women and Equalities (2010-12); she was entrusted with one of the key Cabinet posts by David Cameron who as PM made deliberate efforts to promote women within the Tory frame. (But it is also true that women are also given the opportunity to stand in unsafe or unwinnable seats).\nMay is the product of her baby-boom generation where what is anathema is not feminism and the discourse of sexual equality. Rather it is old-school, old-boy homo-social sexism that catches the headlines.\nAndrea Leadsom's clumsy playing of the mother card, and her sexual politics generally, was perceived to be at odds with the zeitgeist, and effectively put paid to her campaign to be the second woman Prime Minister--a remarkable riposte to the 'traditional values,' 'family values' of Thatcherism.\nThere is a longer history of Tory feminism that helps to explain May and, in fact, suggests Thatcher may actually be the anomaly.\nA number of Tory women were prominent suffragists, and Louisa Knightley founded the Conservative and Unionist Women's Franchise Association in 1908. Conservatives were represented among the suffragettes as well, with Lady Constance Lytton as one example, and WSPU-donor Lady Lucy Houston, simultaneously a diehard feminist and ultra-Tory imperialist and defencist. Edith Lady Londonderry and Thelma Cazalet-Keir were two Tory suffragists who became important figures within the party between the wars.\nIn the party's transition to mass democracy it formed the mixed-sex Primrose League in 1883 and, after suffrage, the Women's Unionist and later Women's Conservative Associations endowed women with significant social power. Campbell could start answering the question 'why do women vote Tory' by studying the effectiveness of the feminised party machine. With a membership of one million in the 1930s, the CWA was instrumental to the party's electoral success.\nIn 1919, the first woman MP to take her seat was the Conservative, American-born Nancy Astor, and throughout her twenty-six years as Plymouth's MP she eagerly embraced her role as the representative of all women.\nWhile there was only a handful of women MPs in those first decades after the First World War, many of the Conservative ones self-identified as feminists (by the measure of their time), and scored firsts for women in national and international politics, and in the rituals of parliamentary democracy.\nOne can understand why the present-day Conservative Women's Organisation takes pride in a feminist pedigree. A number of former-suffragettes eventually found their political home on the Right, including WSPU leader Emmeline Pankhurst who joined the party before her death in 1928.\nThat it was Margaret Thatcher who became the first woman PM meant that this story, this strain of a feminised and even feminist Toryism, was sweep aside. It did not help to explain the advent of Thatcher.\nBut May, as the second woman Conservative PM, needs to be set against a rather different historical backdrop. We have yet to see how well feminist Toryism can work in practice, and whether May will succeed to 'iron' out the obvious inconsistencies and 'iron' in a new ethos to the social and intellectual fabric of the Conservative party.\nDr Julie V.

The miracle of flight has changed things forever. In celebration of International Civil Aviation day we thought we\u2019d share our thoughts on how flying has changed the world!\nNow that we have the internet, it\u2019s a lot easier to purchase items from across the world whilst in the comfort of your own home and aviation really helps with this too. Imagine clicking \u201ccheck out\u201d only to find out your parcel will be delivered by ship in a few months\u2019 time!\nIt\u2019s always nice to be present in person! And flying means that it takes people less time to get to where they want to be, which is handy for businesses that have clients or colleagues overseas. On the other hand for example, if you wanted to cross the Atlantic by ship it could take you up to 20 days depending on several conditions such as route, weather and the cargo. Centuries ago it would have taken you months and we humans have managed to reduce it down to just a number of hours by plane. It really does make the world a smaller place!\nFun fact: the first transatlantic flight took place as early as 1919!\nApart from parcel and business exchanges, flying allows us to experience greater cultural and intellectual exchange. Because of flying, we can now experience cultures that we have never experienced. We see landscapes and scenery that we only dreamed of before. We can feel the warmth on our skin as our feet pass through sand on a beach or feel an icy wind on our face as we stand on a frozen lake (even within the same day if we wanted). And sometimes, people go out there, they fall in love with a new country and don\u2019t want to come back\u2026 which brings us to the subject of working abroad. Unless you plan on living in the wilderness!\nFlying has enabled us to pick a country we\u2019ve always dreamed of and make a living there. And this is why we love TEFL and are very thankful for civil aviation. Without flying, not only would it be difficult for children and students to gain access to a native English speaker, our TEFL graduates would not be able to quench their thirst for adventure and earn a living at the same time!\nThe Wright Brothers would be proud of how far we\u2019ve come since the invention of the aeroplane! We also think they\u2019d make great TEFL teachers!\nRead Next: 7 volunteering ideas to inspire you",

        "raw_content": "International trial observations\nThe work of the IBAHRI\nThe IBAHRI sends impartial international observers to attend hearings to assess the independence of the legal profession. The practice of sending trial observers is well established within the international community. It aims to ensure the right to a fair and public trial through the impartial administration of justice and the proper functioning of the court. This principle is established in several international and human rights instruments, such as Article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.\nThe International Bar Association\u2019s Human Rights Institute (IBAHRI) was established in 1995. It undertook its first trial observation in 1996. So far, observations have been undertaken in 24 countries.\nThese are from all regions of the world and represent Common Law, Civil Law and Sharia jurisdictions. All of the countries are parties to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which contains extensive obligations relating to fair trial procedures. While these are mainly developing countries, observations have also been undertaken in developed countries such as Poland and Russia. This indicates that trial observations are a world-wide necessity.\nValue added of Trial Observations\n1. Fair trials are essential for justice and the rule of law. The fairness of a trial may relate to the substance of the accusations, what motivated the bringing of the accusation, the process of the trial, the independence of the judge and participating lawyers, and the independence of the court system itself. Trial observations facilitate in uncovering unfairness.\n2. The presence of an observer encourages judges and all participants in the trial to follow proper procedure. This is especially important in cases brought against critics of the government. It is also important in cases of restorative justice and in situations of transitional justice where fundamental human rights are at stake.\n3. A report is usually published detailing the trial observation. While the report relates to a specific case, it can give insights into the functioning of the legal system overall and can illustrate the extent to which the country where the observation took place is really committed to human rights. It can thus be used as a basis for law reform in that country.\nThe following conversations in English and Spanish provide additional information on trial observations and the work of the IBAHRI. The first of its kind in Spanish, this film was co-produced with our partner organisation in Colombia, Universidad El Rosario, in the framework of a joint training on trial observations directed at Latin American lawyers.\nTraining on International Trial Observations\nThe IBA\u2019s Human Rights Institute has hosted activities in Bogot\u00e1, Colombia, to explore the relevance of trial observations to the work of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace, and to implement the first course on trial observations for Latin American lawyers. In May 2018, the Institute staged a roundtable with the Faculty of Finance, Government and International Relations of Externado University. It also worked with the Faculty of Jurisprudence of Del Rosario University to offer training to lawyers.\nFirst photo top left: Aur\u00e9lie Roche-Mair, Director, IBA Hague Office - ICC & ICL Programme; Dr. Phillip Tahmindjis, Director - IBAHRI; Ver\u00f3nica Hinestroza, Senior Programme Lawyer - IBAHRI; Dr. Juan Carlos Forero, Dean School of Law - Universidad El Rosario; Dr. Lina Mar\u00eda C\u00e9spedes, Vice-dean School of Law -Universidad El Rosario; Mark Stephens- CBE IBAHRI\u2019s Council Member, Partner at Howard Kennedy; Enrique Prieto, Director Research Unit, School of Law - Universidad El Rosario\nSecond photo top-right: Dr. Juan Carlos Forero, Dean School of Law - Universidad El Rosario\nFirst photo bottom -left: Opening session by Enrique Prieto, Director Research Unit, School of Law - Universidad El Rosario\nSecond photo bottom -right: Participant from El Salvador, Manuel Escalante, Human Rights Institute- Universidad Centroamericana Jos\u00e9 Sime\u00f3n Ca\u00f1as.\nYou can download the course training programme in English or Spanish.\nThailand trial observation 2011 - 2012\nThe IBAHRI sent independent observers to attend hearings in the trial of Chiranuch Premchaiporn, the founder and director of the Thai Network Prachatai electronic newspaper. Chiranuch Premchaiporn was charged under Article 15 of the Computer Crime Act (CCA) and faced up to 20 years in prison, for failing to remove an anti-King post fast enough.\nTurkey Trial Observation, Members of the Istanbul Bar Association, 2013 - 2014\nThe IBAHRI observed the trial of ten Turkish lawyers who are board members of the Istanbul Bar Association, including Umit Kocasakal, President of the Istanbul Bar Association. The lawyers have been charged due to their involvement in the \u2018Operation Sledgehammer\u2019 military coup case. The ten lawyers represented the defendants in this case in April 2012, after the original defence counsel abstained from a hearing in protest at the perceived lack of adherence to fair trial processes...\nTurkey Trial Observation, the 'KCK lawyers', 2012 - ongoing\nIn 2013 the IBAHRI continued its trial observation of a large body of Turkish lawyers who are accused of being members\nof the unlawful organisation Kurdish Communities Union (KCK), said to be the political wing of the proscribed terrorist\norganisation, the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK). The charges against the lawyers stem from their involvement with\nthe case of imprisoned PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan...\nOn 20 September 2011 the IBAHRI released an extensive report on the trial of Mikhail Khodorkovsky. The IBAHRI is the only organisation who had a full-time observer based in Moscow attending all sessions from 2009-2011.\nVietnam trial observation, 2010\nOn 13 June 2009, lawyer Le Cong Dinh was arrested by Vietnamese authorities and charged with \u2018distributing propaganda against the state\u2019 under article 88 of the Penal Code, a charge carrying a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The charges were then altered to the more severe charge of \u2018carrying out activities aimed at overthrowing the people\u2019s administration\u2019 under article 79 of the Penal Code, potentially punishable by death.\nThe Gambia trial observation, 2009\nThe IBAHRI followed the trial of seven journalists in The Gambia for alleged sedition and criminal defamation, subsequently releasing a report detailing the findings and conclusions of the trial observation.\nIn November 2009, the IBAHRI conducted a trial observation for the case of Judge Miroslaw Wyrzykowski, a Judge of the Polish Constitutional Tribunal on trial for omitting certain information from an affidavit required under the Lustration Act.\nZimbabwe trial observation, 2009\nOn 25 June 2009, the IBAHRI sent a trial observer to the hearing of Jestina Mukoko and other political abductees before the Supreme Court of Zimbabwe.\nIn June 2008 there were a series of arrests made prior to the run off elections. Many of those arrested were practising lawyers, and in some cases were carrying out their professional duties at the time of arrest.\nThailand freedom of expression and fair trial rights training, 2008\nIn July 2008, the IBAHRI held a regional trial observation training in Bangkok to familiarise participants with the skills needed to conduct trial observations. Areas such as fair trial standards, the role and conduct of trial observers and the preparation of observation reports were covered in-depth. The IBAHRI also held discussions on international standards relating to freedom of expression with journalists from television and online and print publications.\nBurundi media trial observation, 2006\nFollowing concerns over the political motivation behind charges levied against four journalists from Burundi, the IBAHRI sent an international observer to Bujumbura in December 2006 to attempt to determine whether the trial and subsequent appeal hearings had been conducted in accordance with international standards. A subsequent report containing findings and conlusions was released.\nThe IBAHRI sent a Trial Observer to Zimbabwe\u2019s Provisional Magistrate\u2019s Court in Bulawayo to hear a trial concerning 29 members of the human rights group Women of Zimbabwe Arise (WOZA).\nIBAHRI, Trial observations",

        "raw_content": "Lewis Hamilton explains why Mercedes have 'big problems' as Sebastian Vettel awaits another setback\nThree-time world champion extended lead in the title race to 34 points in Malaysia.\nBut Ferrari's pace is a concern for Hamilton ahead of the final five races of the season.\nMeanwhile, Vettel anticipates a \"bad surprise\" after post-race crash with Lance Stroll.\nLewis Hamilton may have extended his lead in the Formula One world drivers' championship over Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel but the Briton says Mercedes have \"big problems\" heading into the final five races of the season. Hamilton has a 34-point advantage over Vettel after the pair finished second and fourth respectively at the Malaysian Grand Prix but the three-time world champion was unable to convert the 70th pole position of his career into his eighth victory of the season.\nThe Silver Arrows struggled throughout the three practice sessions in Sepang but benefitted from Vettel being unable to compete in qualifying as Hamilton took his place at the head of the field. But the 32-year-old's lead lasted just four laps as Max Verstappen overlook him on lap four on his way to his second race win. Vettel started at the back of the grid but was able to claw his way into fourth as Hamilton stumbled to a second place finish ahead of Daniel Ricciardo.\nBut having suffered problems with pace for the second race in a row, Hamilton is concerned by the progress made by Ferrari and believes that despite his healthy lead in the championship, the title is far from secure with 125 points still up for grabs.\n\"We've done an exceptional job with what we have,\" he told Sky Sports. \"There are some really big problems which I can't really explain to you. But we really need to make sure we rectify them for next year's cars if we really want to fight both Ferrari and Red Bull when they step up their game.\n\"There is a lot of work for us to do. But there's nothing we can do, it's the way the car is. People have been saying all year long that we've got the best car. It's a fact at some races that the car has turned out to be better but overall, globally, I think it's worked out that we haven't.\n\"Considering Vettel started last, it's not really that great to be honest. We should have won today but we didn't have the pace. I don't know which one of these next races are going to be good for us but we'll do everything we can to try and stay ahead.\"\nHaving ensured a wretched run of luck after crashing out on the opening lap in Singapore and being unable to contest qualifying at the weekend, Vettel is set for another setback after a collision with Lance Stroll on his slow-down lap after the race in Malaysia.\nThe FIA have decided against acting against either driver for the incident, which includes Vettel removing his steering wheel from the car and catching a lift back to the pits from Sauber's Pascal Wehlein. But the damage suffered by Vettel's Ferrari could lead to a gear-box change and an automatic five-place grid penalty for the race in Japan, unless the team can prove the contact was unforeseeable.\n\"We'll check [the gearbox] but yeah, for sure that could be another bad surprise this weekend,\" the German said. \"I hope not because it was completely unnecessary. It was a sort of reflex [to take the steering wheel]. I saw Pascal was stopped and I couldn't get the steering wheel back on because the steering column was completely turned.\n\"Obviously the car was damaged. I put it in the seat, and it was reflex - sometimes they open the track to spectators, so I thought that's the only loose bit. Because I couldn't put it on I thought I might as well take it with me just to make sure. You don't want to lose a steering wheel. Was it necessary? Probably not.\"\nHamilton needs to win three of the last five races to become world champion again.

Also explored are voter expectations about the outcome of the election, degree of voter interest in politics, political affiliation and voting history, as well as participation in the electoral process.

Bureau of the Census, and Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research. Census of Population and Housing, 2000 [United States]: Selected Subsets From Summary File 1, States. Ann Arbor, MI: [distributor], 2006-01-18. https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR13395.v1\nUnited States. Bureau of the Census; Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research\nPrepared by the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research, this data collection consists of selected subsets extracted from the CENSUS OF POPULATION AND HOUSING, 2000 [UNITED STATES]: SUMMARY FILE 1, STATES (ICPSR 3194). Summary File 1 data contain information compiled from the questions asked of all people and of every housing unit enumerated in Census 2000: sex, age, race, Hispanic or Latino origin, type of living quarters (household/group quarters), household relationship, housing unit vacancy status, and housing unit tenure (owner/renter). The information is presented in 286 tables, one variable per table cell, plus additional variables with geographic information. Cases in the summary file data are classified by levels of observation, known as \"summary levels\" in the Census Bureau's nomenclature, which served as the selection criteria for the subsets. Each subset comprises all of the cases in one of two summary levels: whole census tracts (summary level 140) and census tracts in places (summary level 158). The latter covers whole tracts completely within places and portions of tracts that cross place boundaries. Five files are provided for each subset. There is a file for each of the four census regions (East, Midwest, South, and West) and a combined national file. Puerto Rico is included in the national and South files.\nNational Science Foundation (SES 0137019)\ncensus data demographic characteristics employment ethnicity families household composition housing housing conditions occupations population\n(1) The original Summary File 1, States data comprise 2,080 files. For each state (District of Columbia and Puerto Rico included), there is one column-delimited file that contains geographic identifiers (the geographic header record file or \"Geo\" file), plus 39 comma-delimited table files, each with a subset of tables in the data. For reasons of confidentiality, table files 12-36 do not contain data below the tract level. Consequently, they have fewer records than the Geo file and table files 1-11 and 37-39. The subsets were produced piece by piece, one state at a time. Initial steps in the production of a subset for a state involved sorting its Geo file and 39 table files in ascending order of the common identification variable LOGRECNO, reformatting the Geo file as a comma-delimited file, removing records with data below the tract level from table files 1-11 and 37-39, and stripping off the first five identification variables from each of the 39 table files (FILEID, STUSAB, CHARITER, CIFSN, and LOGRECNO). Next, the reformatted Geo file was merged with the stripped table files so that corresponding records in the Geo and table files were joined as a single record in the merged file. The state subset was generated by extracting from the merged file all cases with a given value for SUMLEV, the variable that identifies the summary level. Separate subsets were generated for summary levels 140 and 158. After subsets were produced for every state, the national and regional files were compiled by concatenating component state subsets in ascending order of their state Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) codes. (2) The following states are included in the four regional files. Northeast: Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Midwest: Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. South: Alabama, Arkansas, District of Columbia, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and Puerto Rico. West: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. (3) The implied decimal places in variables INTPTLAT (latitude) and INTPTLON (longitude) were made explicit in the subsets. In addition, the values of all Geo variables were enclosed in quotes, except for variables AREALAND, AREAWATR, POP100, HU100, INTPTLAT, and INTPTLON. (4) The data definition statements were tested with SAS 8, SPSS 10, and Stata/SE 7.0. (5) The codebook documents data collection procedures, concepts, and individual variables in the original Summary File data as well as the ICPSR-produced subsets, but not the layout and structure of the subsets. That information is contained in the data dictionary file provided with this collection. In particular, the \"Data Structure and Segmentation\" section in chapter 2 of the codebook and the variable locations shown in chapter 7 do not apply to the subsets. Every subset file record begins with the Geo variables in their original order. The Geo variables are followed by the 6th to last variables in table file 1, then the 6th to last variables in table file 2, and so on up to the 6th to last variables in table file 39.

        "raw_content": "The Beatles\u2019 Granny Smith apple logo is now a registered trademark of Apple Inc.\nUK-based Apple Corps, which handles business dealings of the legendary Liverpool-based pop group The Beatles, has finally ended its dispute with Apple, Inc. of Cupertino, California over use of the Apple Corps\u2019 Granny Smith logo, which was originally owned by The Beatles. According to a new report, Apple for an undisclosed sum has secured rights to use the Apple Corps logo in association with music, computers, entertainment, multimedia and more. Matter of fact, Apple, Inc. has actually gained entire ownership over all trademarks which included or are related to the word \u201cApple\u201d\u2026\nFurthermore, the iPhone maker is now entitled to re-license these trademarks back to Apple Corps for continued use separately from Apple, Inc itself, reports Patently Apple.\nYou may recall that Apple in March 2011 filed for the Apple Corps logo trademark in Europe under 14 international classifications. This was the result of a settlement dating back to February 5, 2007, between Apple Computer, Inc. and Apple Corps, with each party paying for its own legal fees.\nThe late Steve Jobs commented at the time:\nWe love the Beatles, and it has been painful being at odds with them over these trademarks. It feels great to resolve this in a positive manner, and in a way that should remove the potential of further disagreements in the future.\nIt was reported at the time that Apple paid a whopping $500 million to secure those rights. Today\u2019s news has been confirmed by the Canadian IP Office which has disclosed that the Apple Corps logo is now officially a registered trademark of Apple Inc.\nApple under Tim Cook\u2019s leadership seems to be less sue-happy than a Steve Jobs Apple. Just recently, the iPhone maker expeditiously resolved a potentially unpleasant accusation by the Swiss Federal Railways that the new iPad clock app copies the organization\u2019s iconic clock design.\nI guess that\u2019s a good sign and that Apple going forward will be more willing to settle other legal disputes.\nWouldn\u2019t that benefit all of us?\nApple files trademark applications for Beats 2, 3, 4 and 5 radio stations\nApple TV logo trademark updated with all things related to gaming\nApple files for \u201cConnect(s) to Apple Watch\u201d trademarks",

        "raw_content": "July 01, 2011 in \"Lessons Learned\", \"Weight Loss\", \"scale\", \"self-discipline\"\nA friend of mine who is dealing with a serious health issue promised that he would blog about his experiences, both good and bad. For this blog to mean anything, I have to do the same thing. That means blogging about last week and weekend, during which I forgot every single healthy eating habit I had acquired, including the rule about not eating when I\u2019m not hungry. Especially the rule about not eating when I\u2019m not hungry.\nI was determined to break that cycle this week, so I spent my Monday treadmill time figuring out what knocked me off the rails. (Thankfully, the gym habit was virtually unaffected by my detour, although\u2014as long as I\u2019m being brutally honest\u2014I did skimp on the stretching.) This is what I came up with: It\u2019s all about numbers.\nThe first numbers were the numbers in my bank accounts. As a freelancer, I don\u2019t have a regular income. It\u2019s my least favorite and the most nerve-wracking part of what I do. There are often huge gaps between paychecks. I\u2019m in one of those gaps now. I know the money will come in, but it\u2019s not here yet and my creditors still must be paid. (Don\u2019t you hate that?) That means dipping into my savings. And that means watching my savings dwindle. And that causes anxiety. It seems I\u2019ve inherited some of my grandmother\u2019s Depression-era mentality, the worry that I won\u2019t or don\u2019t have enough money. Most months I can talk myself through this anxiety without self-medicating with copious amounts of carbs. Not this time.\nWhy not this time? Because I did exactly what I said I was trying not to do: focus on the number on the scale. I noticed that I was thisclose to having lost 10% of my body weight, which is a significant milestone. I immediately got carried away with my success. I started thinking about other milestones\u2014what I could weigh by the end of the month, and on my birthday, and at Thanksgiving. I was so caught up in what could be that I lost sight of the work I needed to do today. So the work stopped.\nOn some level, I think I was also a bit frightened by my success. As much as I want to reach my healthiest weight, I\u2019m also scared to get there. I don\u2019t remember being anything other than grossly overweight. (Just to be clear, that\u2019s gross as in \u201cway too much,\u201d not gross as in \u201cEeeeewwww!\u201d) I\u2019m not sure I know how to be thin. Granted, I\u2019ve got a long way to go until I get there, but I feel like I should start preparing my psyche now. That, however, is another post for another week.",

        "title": "Metrology Institutes - National Metrology Research",
        "raw_content": ">Metrology Institutes>\nNational Metrology Research\nSPIP\u2122 was originally developed in close collaboration with national metrology institutes (NMIs) leading within the field of nanometrology, and possesses unique features for calibrating in particular scanning probe microscopes (SPM) at the nanoscale.\nThe majority of national metrology institutes use SPIP\u2122 in their research in fundamental physics and in the development of new calibration methods as well as in their calibration and testing services. Calibration and testing services where SPIP\u2122 is used do not just include measurement of lattice constants, linearity, and step height, but also roughness measurements and particle size measurements. NMIs often both use commercially available SPMs. But many have also built their own high precision instruments for which Image Metrology has developed file format support in SPIP\u2122.\nAn important part of the work of NMIs is international comparisons which ensure equivalence all around the globe. Several international key comparisons and supplementary comparisons in nano scale calibration have been conducted over the years. The majority of participants using SPMs in these comparisons have been using the calibration functions in SPIP\u2122.\nIn fact, in 2014 the first ISO standard for determination of geometric quantities using SPMs and for calibration SPMs was published (ISO 11952:2014). Several of the methods described in this standard correspond to functionality in SPIP\u2122.\nCASE: Danish Fundamental Metrology Institute\nDanish Fundamental Metrology (DFM) is designated to be the Danish national metrological institute (NMI) and has an obligation to conduct fundamental research within metrology. DFM is obliged to share knowledge and ensure that the knowledge obtained from national and international projects will benefit the industry by offering consultancy, calibration and measurement services.\nDFM provides critical infrastructure to the Danish industry by providing traceability at the highest possible international level within metrology.\nDFM uses SPIPTM in their nanoscale research and calibration services, spanning from certification of particle size to calibrating step heights and lattice structures. Senior scientist J\u00f8rgen Garn\u00e6s is happy to explain why: \u201cFor our activities SPIP is indispensable. Danish Fundamental Metrology use it as the only software tools for AFM analysis and calibrations of nanometer scale standards with international recognition. For special applications, the possibility to write tailored plug-ins is unique and easy to use.\u201d\nCASE: The German National Metrology Institute - PTB\nAt the German national metrology institute PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt ), SPIP\u2122 is widely used as the main routine tool for the analysis of surface topography measurements on the micro- and nanoscale. While in the beginning, the software package was solely applied for AFM and STM images, it is increasingly appreciated also for the quantitative analysis of images recorded with various other surface measuring techniques and thus increasingly used more broadly in a number of working groups with different focus.\nLudger Koenders, head of the department \"Surface Metrology\" explains how the software is used: \u201dAt PTB I have been using SPIP\u2122 from the very early days of the software more than 20 years ago, for measuring precisely critical dimensions from AFM images, such as step height and lattice constant of gratings. As SPIP\u2122 users we have significantly influenced the evolution of SPIP\u2122 over the years.\u201d For more than two decades now, the direct contact to the software developers has greatly helped to take the emerging demands of PTB as one of the world\u2019s largest metrology institutes into account, so that new functions and options could be implemented promptly. The software package has thus matured into a generally versatile and particularly reliable tool for image analysis.\nThorsten Dziomba, scientist in the department \"Dimensional Nanometrology\": \u201cRight from the beginning of my work in the field of AFM calibration services, I\u2019ve been using the core metrology functions such as step height and grating analysis, and appreciate that Image Metrology has always been taking our concerns seriously, e. g. when it comes to the treatment of data derived from non-perfect, irregular or contaminated samples. Analysis routines have been adjusted in a way that bad data can be identified more easily and consequently excluded, which is important for efficient routine services. SPIP\u2122 is always the main tool to analyze the broad range of nanoscale research measurements we do, whether it is measurements at quantum devices, novel materials, nanoparticles or novel roughness standards, not only with AFM, but also other techniques. There is hardly any software package that has so many import filters to read the measurement data files of many microscope manufacturers. It is a great advantage that we can read the data of different instruments and analyze the images in the very same way. This ensure good comparability.\u201d\nThe latter has become particularly important with the optical surface measuring techniques emerging, e. g. confocal laser scanning microscopy and interference microscopy. As a metrology institute, it is vitally important to carefully investigate the different imaging and measurement properties of the instruments, for example in view of surface roughness.\nThorsten Dziomba continues: \u201cA great advantage of this software package is that it allows a straight-forward use, with a clear focus on what is important for a metrologist, on what is relevant in dimensional surface metrology, without getting lost in a confusing jungle of unnecessary extra functions hardly anybody needs. The direct access to the developers ensures that mathematical problems can be discussed \u2013 and solved \u2013 in a scientifically profound manner. This is decisive for the use of SPIP\u2122 in critical applications such as official calibrations and international comparisons.",

        "raw_content": "This article's tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia's guide to writing better articles for suggestions. (January 2012)\nEdward Louis Bernays\nMarch 9, 1995(1995-03-09) (aged 103)\nEdward Louis James Bernays (/b\u0259r\u02c8ne\u026az/; German: [b\u025b\u0250\u032f\u02c8na\u026as]; November 22, 1891 \u2212 March 9, 1995) was an Austrian-American pioneer in the field of public relations and propaganda, referred to in his obituary as \"the father of public relations\".[1] He combined the ideas of Gustave Le Bon and Wilfred Trotter on crowd psychology with the psychoanalytical ideas of his uncle, Sigmund Freud.\nHe felt this manipulation was necessary in society, which he regarded as irrational and dangerous as a result of the \"herd instinct\" that Trotter had described.[2] Adam Curtis's award-winning 2002 documentary for the BBC, The Century of the Self, pinpoints Bernays as the originator of modern public relations, and Bernays was named one of the 100 most influential Americans of the 20th century by Life magazine.[3]\n1 Life and influences\n3 Philosophy and public relations\n3.2 Tie-in\n4 Overthrow of government of Guatemala\n5 Recognition and criticism\nBorn 1891 in Vienna to Jewish parents, Bernays was by two branches of his family tree the nephew of psychoanalysis pioneer Sigmund Freud. His mother was Sigmund's sister Anna and his father was Ely Bernays, brother of Freud's wife Martha Bernays. In 1892 his family moved to New York City, where he attended DeWitt Clinton High School.[4] In 1912 he graduated from Cornell University with a degree in agriculture, but chose journalism as his first career.[5] He married Doris E. Fleischman in 1922.[6]\nBernays, working for the administration of Woodrow Wilson during World War I with the Committee on Public Information, was influential in promoting the idea that America's war efforts were primarily aimed at \"bringing democracy to all of Europe\". Following the war, he was invited by Woodrow Wilson to attend the Paris Peace Conference in 1919.\nStunned by the degree to which the democracy slogan had swayed the public both at home and abroad, he wondered whether this propaganda model could be employed during peacetime. Due to negative implications surrounding the word propaganda because of its use by the Germans in World War I, he promoted the term \"Public Relations\".[7] According to the BBC interview with Bernays's daughter Anne, Bernays felt that the public's democratic judgment was \"not to be relied upon\" and he feared that \"they [the American public] could very easily vote for the wrong man or want the wrong thing, so that they had to be guided from above.\" This \"guidance\" was interpreted by Anne to mean that her father believed in a sort of \"enlightened despotism\" ideology.[8]\nThis thinking was heavily shared and influenced by Walter Lippmann, one of the most prominent American political columnists at the time. Bernays and Lippmann sat together on the U.S. Committee on Public Information, and Bernays quotes Lippmann extensively in his seminal work Propaganda.[9][circular reference]\nBernays also drew on the ideas of the French writer Gustave LeBon, the originator of crowd psychology, and of Wilfred Trotter, who promoted similar ideas in the anglophone world in his book Instincts of the Herd in Peace and War. Bernays refers to these two names in his writings. Trotter, who was a head and neck surgeon at University College Hospital, London, read Freud's works, and it was he who introduced Wilfred Bion, whom he lived and worked with, to Freud's ideas. When Freud fled Vienna for London after the Anschluss, Trotter became his personal physician, and Wilfred Bion and Ernest Jones became key members of the Freudian psychoanalysis movement in England, and would develop the field of Group Dynamics, largely associated with the Tavistock Institute where many of Freud's followers worked. Thus ideas of group psychology and psychoanalysis came together in London around World War II.[9][circular reference]\nBernays's public relations efforts helped to popularize Freud's theories in the United States. Bernays also pioneered the PR industry's use of psychology and other social sciences to design its public persuasion campaigns:\nIf we understand the mechanism and motives of the group mind, is it not possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without their knowing about it? The recent practice of propaganda has proved that it is possible, at least up to a certain point and within certain limits.[10]\nHe called this scientific technique of opinion-molding the 'engineering of consent'.[11]\nBernays began his career as press agent in 1913, counseling to theaters, concerts and the ballet. In 1917, US President Woodrow Wilson engaged George Creel and realizing one of his ideas, he founded the Committee on Public Information. Bernays, Carl Byoir and John Price Jones worked together to influence public opinion towards supporting American participation in World War I.[12][circular reference]\nIn 1919, he opened an office as Public Relations Counselor in New York. He held the first Public Relations course at New York University in 1923, publishing the first groundbreaking book on public relations titled Crystallizing Public Opinion that same year.[13]\nAs for Bernay's many accomplishments, he also worked with a vast number of famous clients, including President Calvin Coolidge, Procter & Gamble, CBS, the United Fruit Company, the American Tobacco Company, General Electric, Dodge Motors, and the fluoridationists of the Public Health Service. Beyond his contributions to these famous and powerful clients, Bernays revolutionized public relations by combining traditional press agentry with the techniques of psychology and sociology to create a powerful yet debatable new discipline. Among its critics was journalist John T. Flynn, who pilloried it in his 1932 book, The Science of Ballyhoo.[9][circular reference]\nBernays refined and popularized the use of the press release, following its invention by PR man Ivy Lee, who had issued a press release after the 1906 Atlantic City train wreck. One of the most famous campaigns of Bernays was the women's cigarette smoking campaign in 1920s. Bernays helped the smoking industry overcome one of the biggest social taboos of the time: women smoking in public. Women were only allowed to smoke in designated areas, or not at all. Women caught violating this rule were arrested.[14] Bernays staged the 1929 Easter parade in New York City, showing models holding lit Lucky Strike cigarettes, or \"Torches of Freedom\". After the historic public event, women started lighting up more than ever before. It was through Bernays that women's smoking habits started to become socially acceptable. Bernays created this event as news, which it was not.[citation needed] Bernays convinced industries that the news, not advertising, was the best medium to carry their message to an unsuspecting public.[citation needed]\nOne of Bernays's favorite techniques for manipulating public opinion was the indirect use of \"third party authorities\" to plead his clients' causes. \"If you can influence the leaders, either with or without their conscious cooperation, you automatically influence the group which they sway.\" he said. In order to promote sales of bacon, for example, he conducted a research and found that the American public ate very light breakfast of coffee, maybe a roll and orange juice. He went to his physician and found that a heavy breakfast was sounder from the standpoint of health than a light breakfast because the body loses energy during the night and needs it during the day. He asked the physician if he would be willing, at no cost, to write 5,000 physicians and ask them whether their judgement was the same as his\u2014confirming his judgement. About 4,500 answered back, all concurring that a more significant breakfast was better for the health of the American people than a light breakfast. He arranged for this finding to be published in newspapers throughout the country with headlines like '4,500 physicians urge bigger breakfast'. while other articles stated that bacon and eggs should be a central part of breakfast and, as a result of these actions, the sale of bacon went up. [15]\nBernays also drew upon his uncle Sigmund's psychoanalytic ideas for the benefit of commerce in order to promote, by indirection, commodities as diverse as cigarettes, soap and books.[citation needed] In addition to the theories of his uncle, Bernays used those of Ivan Pavlov.[citation needed]\nPR industry historian Scott Cutlip describes Bernays as \"perhaps the most fabulous and fascinating individual in public relations, a man who was bright, articulate to excess, and most of all, an innovative thinker and philosopher of this vocation that was in its infancy when he opened his office in New York in June 1919\".[citation needed]\nBernays used the \"Freudian theory\" to deal with the public's conception of communism, as he believed that we should not be easing the public's fear of communism, but rather promote that fear and play with the public's emotions of it. This theory was so powerful that it became a weapon of its own during the Cold War.[citation needed]\nPhilosophy and public relations\nBernays's papers, opened at his death in 1995, contain a wealth of information on the founding of the field in the twenties.[16] The Biography of an Idea: Memoirs of Public Relations Counsel Edward L. Bernays (1965) contains an overview of the decade. Many of the essays selected for the Coolidge-Consumerism collection from the Bernays Papers were written as early drafts for The Biography of an Idea.[17]\nBernays, who pursued his calling in New York City from 1919 to 1963, styled himself a \"public relations counsel\". He had very pronounced views on the differences between what he did and what people in advertising did. A pivotal figure in the orchestration of elaborate corporate advertising campaigns and multi-media consumer spectacles, he nevertheless is among those listed in the acknowledgments section of the seminal government social science study \"Recent Social Trends in the United States\" (1933).[18]\nIn Bernays's mind, the belief that propaganda and purposely created news were legitimate tools of his business, along with his ability to offer philosophical justifications for these beliefs that ultimately embraced the whole democratic way of life, set his work in public relations apart from what ad men did. The Bernays essays \"A Public Relations Counsel States His Views\" (1927) and \"This Business of Propaganda\" (1928) show that Bernays regarded advertising men as special pleaders, merely paid to persuade people to accept an idea or commodity. The public relations counsel, on the other hand, he saw as an Emersonian-like creator of events that dramatized new concepts and perceptions, and even influenced the actions of leaders and groups in society.[citation needed] (However, it is doubtful that transcendentalist Emerson, enamored as he was with the spiritual traditions of India and their denunciation of materialism\u2014and promotion of a simplified \"inward\" existence instead\u2014would have found Bernays and his efforts on behalf of corporations appealing.)\nBernays's vision was of a utopian society in which individuals' dangerous libidinal energies, the psychic and emotional energy associated with instinctual biological drives that Bernays viewed as inherently dangerous given his observation of societies like the Germans under Hitler, could be harnessed and channeled by a corporate elite for economic benefit. Through the use of mass production, big business could fulfill the constant cravings of the inherently irrational and desire-driven masses,[clarification needed What mass irrationality?][citation needed] simultaneously securing the niche of a mass production economy (even in peacetime), as well as sating the dangerous animal urges[clarification needed What dangerous urges?] that threatened to tear society apart[citation needed] if left unquelled.[citation needed]\nBernays's magisterial, philosophical touch[citation needed] is in evidence in \"Manipulating Public Opinion\" (1928) when he writes: \"This is an age of mass production. In the mass production of materials a broad technique has been developed and applied to their distribution. In this age, too, there must be a technique for the mass distribution of ideas.\" Yet he recognized the potential danger in so grand a scheme and in \"This Business of Propaganda\" (1928), as elsewhere, sounded the great caveat to his vision: a public relations counsel \"must never accept a retainer or assume a position which puts his duty to the groups he represents above his duty to society\".[19] (A curious comment, considering his willingness to promote products of questionable value to humanity\u2014such as the aforementioned cigarettes: a publicity campaign he regretted later in life.[citation needed])\nIn Propaganda (1928), Bernays argued that the manipulation of public opinion was a necessary part of democracy:[20]\nArticles in the journals of opinion, such as the one by Marlen Pew, Edward L. Bernays Critiqued as \"Young Machiavelli of Our Time\",[21] and the debate between Bernays and Everett Dean Martin in Forum, Are We Victims of Propaganda?, depicted Bernays negatively.[22] He and other publicists were often attacked as propagandists and deceptive manipulators, who represented lobby groups against the public interest and covertly contrived events that secured coverage as news stories, free of charge, for their clients instead of securing attention for them through paid advertisements.[citation needed]\nBernays's brilliance for promotion in this vein emerges clearly when one reads, in the Bernays Typescript on Publicizing the New Dodge Cars, 1927\u20131928: \"Two Sixes\", the story of how he managed to secure newspaper coverage for the radio programs he developed to promote the Dodge Brothers' new six-cylinder cars. The Bernays Typescript on Publicizing the Fashion Industry, 1925\u201327: \"Hats and Stockings\" and the Bernays Typescript on Art in the Fashion Industry, 1923\u20131927, reveal a similar flair for consumer manipulation in the arena of fashion.[citation needed]\nAs is evident from the description of his campaign to publicize the Dodge cars, Bernays had a particular gift[citation needed] for the marketing strategy called the \"tie-up\" or \"tie-in\". In this strategy, one venue, opportunity, or occasion for promoting a consumer product, for example, radio advertising, is linked to another, say, newspaper advertising, and even, at times, to a third, say a department store exhibition salesroom featuring the item, and possibly even a fourth, such as an important holiday, for example Thrift Week.[23]\nIn addition to famous corporate clients, such as Procter & Gamble, the American Tobacco Company, Cartier Inc., Best Foods, CBS, the United Fruit Company, General Electric, Dodge Motors, the fluoridationists of the Public Health Service, Knox-Gelatin, and innumerable other big names, Bernays also worked on behalf of many non-profit institutions and organizations. These included, to name just a few, the Committee on Publicity Methods in Social Work (1926\u20131927), the Jewish Mental Health Society (1928), the Book Publishers Research Institute (1930\u20131931), the New York Infirmary for Women and Children (1933), the Committee for Consumer Legislation (1934), the Friends of Danish Freedom and Democracy (1940),[24][25][26] the Citywide Citizens' Committee on Harlem (1942), and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (1954\u20131961). For the U.S. government, he worked for the President's Emergency Committee on Employment (1930\u20131932) and President Calvin Coolidge.[citation needed]\nIn the 1950s, some of his ideas and vision helped portray India as the most democratic republic in Asia by having the People\u2019s Congress of India adapt a Bill of Rights. Freedom of the press, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, and freedom of petition were added to the Constitution of India.[citation needed]\nBernays Typescript on Public Relations Work and Politics, 1924: \"Breakfast with Coolidge\" shows that President Coolidge too was among his clients. Bernays was hired to improve Coolidge's image before the 1924 presidential election.[citation needed]\nAnother selection from his papers, the Typescript on Publicizing the Physical Culture Industry, 1927: \"Bernarr Macfadden\", reveals Bernays's opinion of the leader of the physical culture movement. Yet another client, department store visionary Edward A. Filene, was the subject of the Typescript on a Boston Department Store Magnate. Bernays's Typescript on the Importance of Samuel Strauss: \"1924 \u2013 Private Life\" shows that the public relations counsel and his wife were fans of consumerism critic Samuel Strauss.[citation needed]\nMain article: Public relations campaigns of Edward Bernays\nSome of the public relations and marketing campaigns Bernays worked on:\n1913 Bernays was hired by the actor Richard Bennett to protect a play that supported sex education against police interference. Bernays set up a front group called the \"Medical Review of Reviews Sociological Fund\" (officially concerned with fighting venereal disease) for the purpose of endorsing the play.[27]\n1915 Diaghilev's Ballet Russes American tour convince magazines to write articles that told people that ballet is fun to watch.\n1920 Successfully hosted the first NAACP convention in Atlanta, Georgia. His campaign was considered successful because there was no violence at the convention. His campaign focused on the important contributions of African-Americans to Whites living in the South. He later received an award from the NAACP for his contribution.\nIn the 1920s, working for the American Tobacco Company, he sent a group of young models to march in the New York City parade. He then told the press that a group of women's rights marchers would light \"Torches of Freedom\". On his signal, the models lit Lucky Strike cigarettes in front of the eager photographers. The New York Times (1 April 1929) printed: \"Group of Girls Puff at Cigarettes as a Gesture of 'Freedom'\". This helped to break the taboo against women smoking in public. During this decade, he also handled publicity for the NAACP.[28]\nBernays once engineered a \"pancake breakfast\" with vaudevillians for Calvin Coolidge, in what is widely considered one of the first overt media acts for a president.\nBernays used his uncle Sigmund Freud's ideas to help convince the public, among other things, that bacon and eggs was the true all-American breakfast.[29]\nIn October 1929, Bernays was involved in promoting Light's Golden Jubilee. The event, which spanned across several major cities in the U.S., was designed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Thomas Edison's invention of the light-bulb (though the light-bulb had been previously invented by Joseph Swan). The publicity elements of the Jubilee \u2013 including the special issuance of a U.S. postage stamp and Edison's \"re-creating\" the invention of the light bulb for a nationwide radio audience \u2013 provided evidence of Bernays's love for big ideas and \"ballyhoo\". A follow-up event for the 75th anniversary, produced for television by David O. Selznick, was titled Light's Diamond Jubilee and broadcast on all four American TV networks on October 24, 1954.\nBernays attempted to help Venida hair nets company to get women to wear their hair longer so they would use hairnets more. The campaign failed but did get government officials to require hairnets for some jobs.\nBernays worked with Procter & Gamble for Ivory-brand bar soap. The campaign successfully convinced people that Ivory soap was medically superior to other soaps. He also promoted soap through sculpting contests and floating contests because the soap floated better than competing products.\nIn the 1930s, his Dixie Cup campaign was designed to convince consumers that only disposable cups were sanitary by linking the imagery of an overflowing cup with subliminal images of vaginas and venereal disease.[30]\nIn the 1930s, he attempted to convince women that Lucky Strike cigarettes' forest green pack was the most fashionable color. Letters were written to interior and fashion designers, department stores, and prominent women of society pushing green as the new hot color for the season. Balls, gallery exhibitions, and window displays all featured green after Bernays got through with them. The result was that green did indeed become a very hot color for the 1934 season and Lucky Strike kept their pack color and female clientele intact.\nHe was the publicity director of the 1939 New York World's Fair.\nAfter his semi-retirement in the 1960s he worked with the pro-health anti-smoking lawyer John Banzhaf's group, ASH, and supported other anti-smoking campaigns.\nOverthrow of government of Guatemala\nBernays's most extreme political propaganda activities were said to be conducted on behalf of the multinational corporation United Fruit Company (today's Chiquita Brands International) and the U.S. government to facilitate the successful overthrow (see Operation PBSUCCESS) of the democratically elected president of Guatemala, Colonel Jacobo Arbenz Guzman. Bernays's propaganda (documented in the BBC documentary, The Century of the Self), branding Arbenz as communist, was published in major U.S. media. According to a book review by John Stauber and Sheldon Rampton of Larry Tye's biography of Bernays, The Father of Spin: Edward L. Bernays & The Birth of PR, \"The term 'banana republic' actually originated in reference to United Fruit's domination of corrupt governments in Guatemala and other Central American countries.\"[31]\nRecognition and criticism\nMuch of Bernays's reputation today stems from his persistent public relations campaign to build his own reputation as \"America's No. 1 Publicist\". During his active years, many of his peers in the industry were offended by Bernays's continuous self-promotion. According to Scott Cutlip, \"Bernays was a brilliant person who had a spectacular career, but, to use an old-fashioned word, he was a braggart.\"[32]\n\"When a person would first meet Bernays,\" says Cutlip, \"it would not be long until Uncle Sigmund would be brought into the conversation. His relationship with Freud was always in the forefront of his thinking and his counseling.\" According to Irwin Ross, another writer, \"Bernays liked to think of himself as a kind of psychoanalyst to troubled corporations.\" In the early 1920s, Bernays arranged an English-language translation of Freud's A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis for the US publication. In addition to publicizing Freud's ideas, Bernays used his association with Freud to establish his own reputation as a thinker and theorist\u2014a reputation that was further enhanced when Bernays authored several landmark texts of his own, most notably Crystallizing Public Opinion (1923, ISBN 0-87140-975-5), Propaganda (1928, ISBN 0-8046-1511-X) and \"The Engineering of Consent\" in Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science (March 1947).[citation needed]\nBernays defined the profession of \"counsel on public relations\" as a \"practicing social scientist\" whose \"competence is like that of the industrial engineer, the management engineer, or the investment counselor in their respective fields\". To assist clients, PR counselors used \"understanding of the behavioral sciences and applying them \u2013 sociology, social psychology, anthropology, history, etc.\" In Propaganda, his most important book,[citation needed] Bernays argued that the scientific manipulation of public opinion was necessary to overcome chaos and conflict in society.[citation needed]\nBernays's celebration of propaganda helped define public relations, but it did not win the industry many friends. In a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter described Bernays and Ivy Lee as \"professional poisoners of the public mind, exploiters of foolishness, fanaticism and self-interest\". History showed the flaw in Bernays's identification of the \"manipulation of the masses\"\u2014as a natural and necessary feature of a democratic society\u2014when the fascist rise to power in Germany demonstrated that propaganda could be used to subvert democracy as easily as it could be used to \"resolve conflict\".\nKarl von Wiegand, foreign correspondent of the Hearst newspapers, an old hand at interpreting Europe and just returned from Germany, was telling us about Goebbels and his propaganda plans to consolidate Nazi power. Goebbels had shown Wiegand his propaganda library, the best Wiegand had ever seen. Goebbels, said Wiegand, was using my book Crystallizing Public Opinion as a basis for his destructive campaign against the Jews of Germany. This shocked me. ... Obviously the attack on the Jews of Germany was no emotional outburst of the Nazis, but a deliberate, planned campaign.[33]\nAccording to John Stauber and Sheldon Rampton, in a published review of Larry Tye's biography of Bernays:[34]\nIt is impossible to fundamentally grasp the social, political, economic and cultural developments of the past 100 years without some understanding of Bernays and his professional heirs in the public relations industry. PR is a 20th-century phenomenon, and Bernays\u2014widely eulogized as the \"father of public relations\" at the time of his death in 1995\u2014played a major role in defining the industry's philosophy and methods.\nAs a result, his legacy remains a highly contested one, as evidenced by Adam Curtis' 2002 BBC documentary The Century of the Self.\nThe Broadway Anthology (1917, co-author)\nCrystallizing Public Opinion (New York: Boni and Liveright, 1923) OCLC 215243834\nA Public Relations Counsel (1927)\nAn Outline of Careers: A Practical Guide to Achievement by Thirty-Eight Eminent Americans (1927)\nVerdict of Public Opinion on Propaganda (1927)\nPropaganda (New York: Horace Liveright. 1928) ISBN 978-0-8046-1511-2\nThis Business of Propaganda (1928)\nUniversities\u2014Pathfinders in Public Opinion (1937)\nCareers for Men: A Practical Guide to Opportunity in Business, Written by Thirty-Eight Successful Americans (1939)\nSpeak Up for Democracy: What You Can Do\u2014A Practical Plan of Action for Every American Citizen (New York: The Viking Press, 1940)\nFuture of Private Enterprise in the Post-War World (1942)\nDemocratic Leadership in Total War (1943)\nPsychological Blueprint for the Peace\u2014Canada, U.S.A.

        "raw_content": "Whether you\u2019re experiencing this now or have in the past, when burnout threatens your life, you\u2019ll know. It\u2019s that feeling of complete exhaustion, extreme pressure, and downright overload all wrapped into one as you press to do what needs to be done. It\u2019s like you\u2019re driving 100 miles per hour in the fast lane, knowing that if you don\u2019t slow down you\u2019re going to crash and probably hurt other people in the process! So I caution you\u2026don\u2019t burnout!\nI\u2019ve been near burnout before. So I know what it feels like. It\u2019s like you know you have things to do, roles to fill, places to go, deadlines to meet, and you\u2019re pressing to do it all, but your body and mind is screaming, \u201cSYSTEM OVERLOAD!\u201d\nNo doubt, it\u2019s great to want to fulfill your day-to-day roles, workload, and live out your passions and destiny, but NOT at the expense of a crash. Who can you help if you crash and burn? Let me answer that question for you. NO ONE. In the midst of doing it all sis, wisdom is needed.\nSlow down enough to talk to God and ask, \u201cLord, what should I be doing in this season of my life? What can I actually do? What do I need to release?\u201d Because if you\u2019re not careful and sensitive to your body and the Spirit of God, you could very well get knocked out of the race as you\u2019re pressing towards the finish line. It\u2019s true. Many who have experienced full blown burnout have literally given up on their families, friends, jobs, and even ministry. It really does happen. So I caution you again\u2026don\u2019t burnout!\nEcclesiastes 9:11 says, \u201cThe fastest runner doesn\u2019t always win the race and the strongest warrior doesn\u2019t always win the battle.\u201d So slow down, pause and consider, and ask God to help you. Your responsibility is to recognize where you are before burnout totally manifests itself completely in your life and wrecks everything that\u2019s important to you.\nAgain, I would know. I\u2019ve been there where my schedule was in overload. I think before my recent surgery, I was headed there again and the Lord knew. He heard my plea for help. I believe with all my heart that He knew deep down inside that I was doing too much, that I was growing weary, and that I needed to slow down enough to refresh. But He knew that I wasn\u2019t going to be able to do that on my own. So He had to supernaturally intervene.\nJesus knew that I needed rest. He said through Matthew 11:28-30, \u201cCome to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke fits perfectly, and the burden I give you is light.\u201d AMEN! Thank you Jesus!\nHe can do the same for you\u2026in His own way. Meaning, give you supernatural rest. But you have to do what He says. Go to Him. Don\u2019t wait for a nervous breakdown or a crash to wake up and realize that you\u2019re doing too much. There are seasons and times for everything. So seek Him in prayer and ask for godly wisdom. Tell the Lord where you are and let Him lead and guide you and give you rest in due time. In the meantime, hold onto this verse in Zechariah 4:6 which says, \u201cNot by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of hosts.\u201d\nHe will do it! He will complete the work that He has started in you. It\u2019s not solely on you. I had to learn that from experience. Sometimes it takes slowing down to realize that. So take God at His Word that says, \u201cHe who began the good work within us, will continue his work until it is finished on that day when Christ Jesus comes back again.\u201d (Philippians 1:6-NLT) Believe it and hold on my sister! Jesus knows exactly where you are. Talk to Him. Just don\u2019t give up and don\u2019t burnout!\nMy monthly talk for this month will resume next month (Tuesday, June 2, 2015- SAVE THE DATE). I need time to recover from my recent surgery. But be on the lookout for the details. It's entitled, \"Controlling Your Emotions.\" Stay tuned for this one, because as women doing anything for the Kingdom or even in the world that we live in, we need to be able to control our emotions. God bless you ladies! Talk to you soon!\nAnd thanks for reading my post! I hope and pray that you\u2019ve been enlightened. If you have any comments or questions feel free to leave it here or email me @ insideoutwithcourtnaye@gmail.com, and I\u2019ll get back with you promptly.

        "raw_content": "Home Business Why is the Assessment of Training Programs Imperative?\nAssessment of Training Programs: Key Points to Remember\nAre you a budding business? Or do you feel that you are one of the best companies in the town? Well, whatever is the scenario; you have to be careful about certain things. If you want to enjoy the place you hold; you have to keep on working on different things.\nOne such thing is related to training. Do you provide training to your employees or newly joined trainees? Well, if yes then it is great news. But again what type of training do you impart? Do you think the training program you conduct is effective and worth having?\nThere are various reasons that organizations need to plan a training program. They have to possess it to update the employees on process improvements, the roll-out of fresh equipment or technology, the realignment of functions in a job due to restructuring, to address changes in industry regulations and laws, or to close the performance gaps established by specific employees.\nJust as a fresh software implementation or updates to operational processes is going to be fruitful only if the employees wedged adopt them and are friendly with the change, training is influential only if it addresses the absolute need of the organization.\nToo often training is a postscript, considered only once the project has been finished when in reality it has to be an action item comprised on the original plan. The foremost step in creating a training program, no matter the scope or the size, is a needs assessment. Training needs assessment is something that cannot be shrugged off.\nHowever, sadly some businesses or companies may want to skip the step just because they think that a needs assessment is a waste of valuable resources and time. Well, what do you think about this concept? Haven\u2019t thought much yet? Well, it is the right time that you think about this assessment and then have a training program that turns out to be a gem for your organization.\nFor now, you can have a look at some of the points that show the importance of training assessment before you implement any program.\nGuarantee the training is addressing the actual business requirements\nEnhance learning and retention\nGain a greater return on the time investment\nAdvantageous for the bottom line\nThe project leader or manager may think the training they have identified is the best or the right course of action, but once the trainer starts to ask questions about the needs they may expose a different issue. To make sure that the program meets the needs of the business, the training plan might have to change.\nThe training needs valuation asks and answers the general or basic questions of why, who, what, when and how. These are the questions and answers that reveal various layers of improvement and get you the exact idea about what is needed. What is the point if the employees or workers are on working every day without even known what is needed?\nYou have to be sure that the efforts your employees put in the office are for the fulfillment of the needs at the organizational level. And this is something you can ensure only by a well-planned and well thought training program.\nWhen you create a corporate training program, make sure that you identify who will need the training and customize the course content to the particular department or role. The more relevant the information is to the group, the better would be the learning and holding, and more fruitful the training.\nSimilarly, on the basis of the target audience, the trainer might explore diverse delivery techniques to improve the learning process. Certainly, once you know who is going to get the training, you can mold the training program in a more wiser and effective manner.\nRight from project leader or manager who identifies a training need, to the facilitator or trainer who establishes the program and delivers the session, to the staff members who took part, there is often a lot of time spent by everyone involved. If you conduct a training needs a valuation, it would deliver an advanced return on that investment.\nOf course, if the training turns out to be beneficial and effective; it would be time worth spent. But if the training program turns out to be a drudge and not really effective; it would be a lot of time wasted on everybody\u2019s part.\nThough some project leaders may feel a needs assessment is an unnecessary waste of precious resources, it can actually turn out to be a tool to save time and money by guarantying the right training program is developed, applied and delivered, and the staff members get the suitable knowledge and skills to carry out their jobs.\nOf course, you have no idea how much time a single good training program can save for everyone working in the organization. Once your employees have trained in the right manner they are not going to stuck during the day today working in the office.\nMoreover, once they have learned about the skills that might be required down the lane; they will not have to give any time to learning later on. This is all that can make a great impact on the learners and of course the overall growth of the organization. Once the employees are not wasting any time, the organization is also not wasting any time.\nEffective corporate training program is going to provide employees with the skills they require to improve job performance and head to greater productivity, positively influencing the bottom line of a company. Of course, once the training is effective and good; it would be great for the outcomes of the organization as a whole.\nThe training would empower the employees and the staff members will show the advancement and learning in their skills and overall performance in the office.\nSo, whether you have conducted a few training programs in the past or plan to carry out one in the future; you have to be careful about the exactness of the training program. Once you do training needs valuation, things will unroll favorably for you.",

        "raw_content": "Did you ever measure your dreams using a measuring tape before you actually started dreaming? The answer most certainly is no.That\u2019s the best part. Be it of any size, you don\u2019t and shouldn\u2019t stop dreaming. Let\u2019s take the example of this young guy from Mumbai who wanted to invest in an igloo in the Arctic region. Now, isn\u2019t that a unique dream? That said, the main issue for him was not the bizarre nature of his dream. The fact that he didn\u2019t think strategically about his dream couldn\u2019t make ithappen. The two main problems were that he thought it was a far-fetched idea and financially non-viable given his current financial situation. Reality check suggested that he just didn\u2019t know how much his dream would cost. He simply assumed that building an igloo was an unachievable dream and thus, let it die.\nWhat we need to understand here is that nobody needs to give up his/her dreams even without reviewing its prospects. Be it of any nature, the only way you can achieve your dreams is by converting them into achievable goals. A dream can become a goal only if you put a price tag and a time frame on it. You can decide on a figure, for instance, Rs. 2 crore, that you need to spend to achieve you dream within 15 years. This would be a good starting point.\nIt is very crucial for you to note that it becomes much easier for you to achieve your goals when you create a good financial plan.This plan would act as a road map to help you monitor the progress of your goals. Modern financial planning is all about adopting a goal-based approach to managing your financial resources effectively. However, you must remember that the goals you set must be SMART \u2013 Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Timebound, for you to achieve them.\nGoing back to the example of the young lad from Mumbai, let\u2019s now see whether his dream of buying an igloo is an achievable one or not. Let\u2019s assume that the lad\u2019s post-tax income is Rs. 30 lakhs, and that he has saved~ Rs. 60 lakhs as of today owing to good savings culture. Now, on conducting a Google search, heestablished the fact that an igloo in the Arctic region would cost him around Rs. 45-50 lakhs, which maynot be as expensive an investment proposition as envisaged earlier. Let\u2019s assume he gives himself a time horizonof around 5 years to buy the igloo, which means the pricecould increaseto around Rs.65-70 lakhs. Once he would purchase the igloo, he has planned to rent it to a timeshare company.

        "raw_content": "State Street completes GSS buy in Italy\nITALY \u2013 State Street has completed its acquisition of Deutsche Bank\u2019s custody arm, Global Securities Services in Italy and expects to close the acquisition of the Austrian GSS business in the third quarter.\nJean-Marc Crepin has been named vice president and manager of the Milan office with responsibility for State Street\u2019s new investment services operations. Crepin has led Deutsche Bank\u2019s GSS operations in Italy since 2001. He will report to Yoram Matalon, managing director of State Street Bank GmbH in Frankfurt.\nThe Milan-based business has 26 employees and will continue to provide institutional investors in the region with a wide array of investment services, including Depotbank services, custody, and securities lending.\nState Street acquired the GSS business from Deutsche Bank for 1.5 billion dollars (1.3 billion euros) in January, and began integrating operations and converting GSS clients in markets outside of Italy and Austria in February. Delays in both countries are a result of regulatory approval.\nIn April, State Street announced revenue from the Global Securities Services division as set to fall by 124 million dollars (108 million euros) this year as a result of the decline in world stock prices, delays to the closing of the deal in Austria and Italy and \"client attrition\" that was anticipated.",

        "title": "Making sense of God",
        "raw_content": "Tim Keller is well known these days. A Reformed pastor who is hip. An insightful commentator and a successful writer of books for christians.\nEight years ago he published The Reason for God, a thoughtful book of what we might term \u201csoft apologetics\u201d \u2013 that is, he didn\u2019t try to present strong arguments for the existence of God and the truth of Jesus, but rather suggested ideas that would give readers answers to questions and reasons to believe, without being too \u201cpushy\u201d. I remember thinking at the time that it was good, but probably would only convince those who were already questioning their unbelief.\nNow he\u2019s produced a follow up which in a sense prepares the way for The Reason for God.\nMaking Sense of God begins from Tim\u2019s observation that, although many in the secular west think religious belief is not just wrong, but irrelevant and even harmful, there are many people who want to consider and discuss belief in God. And, he observes, it isn\u2019t just facts and arguments they want:\nBelievers and nonbelievers in God alike arrive at their positions through a combination of experience, faith, reasoning, and intuition.\nSo his book attempts to argue that christian belief is culturally relevant, that it makes \u201cmore sense of a complex world and human experience\u201d than do secular worldviews.\nKeller begins with preliminary chapters on whether religion is going away as many secularists hope and on the common charge that religion is based on faith while secularism is based on evidence.\nDemographic studies that show that religious populations are more likely than secular ones to grow through higher birthrates and greater retention of members, and sociologists of religion now generally accept that secularisation isn\u2019t going to happen as once expected.\nKeller argues that secularism makes unproven assumptions just as religious belief does, and that for most \u201cconverts\u201d out of christianity, rational argument is only one part of the motivating reasons. So, he argues, we should not only look at the obvious evidence and arguments for and against the existence of God, but we should consider the internal coherence of all belief systems, and whether they actually \u201cwork\u201d in life, before we make a judgment on which is most likely to be true.\nAnd this is what the rest of the book is mostly about.\nReligion is more than you think it is\nThe main section of the book addresses 7 aspects of life where Keller thinks that christianity offers more than secularism, and hence shows itself more likely to be correct.\nWhat is the meaning of life? Can it have any meaning at all? Most atheists would argue that there is no \u201cgiven\u201d meaning to life, we are free to give life whatever meaning we choose. But Keller argues that \u201cdiscovered meaning\u201d (a meaning which comes from some external, objective source, which christianity says is God) is more rational, more durable and more communal than created meanings (the meaning we may choose to give our lives).\nI have addressed this question in What is the meaning of life?\nOur standard of living (in the first world at any rate) has never been higher, and yet many people have deep longings and still feel discontent: \u201cis this all there is?\u201d They develop strategies to deal with discontent \u2013 they can live a life of striving to find the thing that will give us satisfaction, or they might assume it isn\u2019t possible and not even try.\nAs you\u2019d expect, Keller argues that christian faith provides the sense of satisfaction that secularism struggles to give.\nPerhaps the most universal value in modern secular societies is individual freedom to make our own choices provided we don\u2019t harm others. It is a fine sentiment, but Keller argues it is insufficient for a whole variety of practical reasons. One example: if we have different belief systems, we will have different views on what constitutes harm.\nReligion is commonly seen as an even greater enemy of freedom, but while he recognises the harm sometimes done in the name of religion, Keller argues that christianity gives us many freedoms that secularism cannot give.\nKeller says that in most cultures in the past, people gained their identity from tradition, culture, God and the roles each person played in their society. But in modern western societies we are urged to get our identity from our own free choices, running our own race. He affirms that this modern approach avoids people being locked into societal roles by privilege or lack of it, but he also argues that this view is a great burden (because our identity depends on our performance, achievements and style) and it doesn\u2019t achieve what is hoped.\nIn contrast, he points out that christian identity comes not from our performance, but from a God who loves us regardless and calls us his children.\nSuicide rates are climbing in many secular cultures, and polls show that there is declining confidence in the future. Secularists have looked to the end of religion, education and technological progress to produce a better future, but there is increasing pessimism that this will happen. And there is the fact of our own mortality.\nChristianity offers a hope that God is at work in the world, and that there is a life to come, and this hope is very sustaining.\nBoth christians and atheists can do moral and immoral things, but only christianity provides a reason for moral obligations. Secularism struggles to explain the ethical feelings that everyone has, and to provide a source of the shared morality that all societies need to function. On the other hand christianity offers a reason to believe in moral obligation and a God who can provide a shared ethic.\nWe have a universal declaration of human rights, but where do such rights come from? Religion, including christianity, has been a force for justice and human rights, but also a source of oppression, but the same is true of secularism. But christianity provides a basis for human rights that secularism cannot provide.\nBut is it reasonable?\nThe book concludes with two chapters arguing (briefly) that theism, and christianity in particular, are reasonable. These chapters give a quick overview of the classic arguments that most of us are familiar with, but are intended as an adjunct to the main chapters.\nI heartily recommend this book. I enjoyed it greatly and was informed by it.\nI think the matters he addresses are very important and offer strong reasons in support of the truth of christianity. Those looking for \u201cproofs\u201d may feel he offers nothing, but I think his discussion is convincing for three reasons.\nHe is arguing that christianity is a more coherent belief than secularism, that it is more internally consistent. This is an important test for the truth of any belief; in fact coherentism is a well-established philosophical view of how we can know truth.\nScientific (and historical) hypothesis are tested by how much of the evidence they explain. Keller argues, successfully in my view, that christianity can explain the ethics and sense of self most of us intuitively feel, and the meaning and life satisfaction we seek, while secularism cannot do so well, if at all.\nIn our day-to-day lives, we often judge something by whether it \u201cworks\u201d. When considering religion, this certainly isn\u2019t the only factor to consider, but surely it is one factor \u2013 and it is a factor that Keller shows works in christianity\u2019s favour.\nOne of the most helpful aspects is the references \u2013 69 pages of them. He has read widely and provides lots of useful quotes and insights. I will be using this book to provide input to this website for some time.\nMeaning, beliefs and happiness\nFiled Under: Life Tagged With: Christianity, Ethics, Faith, Healing, Justice, Life, Meaning, Religion, What is human?\n\u00ab Do we need God for life to have real meaning?\nChanging ideas about the death of Jesus \u00bb\nI read his first book when it came out, and I was still agnostic looking for persuasive arguments. I found eveything he put forwards unconvincing, even though I was hoping to be convinced. I\u2019ll have to give this one a go in light of your recommendation.\nHi Eva, nice to hear from you. Yes, I thought Reason for God lacked guts a little, and was unlikely to impress a lot of people who were looking for something more rigorous. But at the same time I thought it was well-written, polite, and better than much that passes for christian apologetics. I tried to hint at this in my initial comments without being too critical.\nIt is hard to say how you would find this book. Again, I don\u2019t think it will convince many people to convert, but I don\u2019t think that is his primary aim. Rather, he says he is trying to show that christian belief makes sense and is worthy of further consideration. But I personally find the arguments about meaning, ethics, free will, identity, etc quite convincing, more perhaps than he does, so I really appreciated the discussion and the references to other thinkers, sociologists, psychologists, philosophers, etc.\nIf you do buy it, I hope you won\u2019t be disappointed. But as you (I think) are someone who is more convinced by life than by arguments, and this is a lot about how we live, you may get a lot out of it. But no money back guarantee!! \ud83d\ude42",

        "raw_content": "I always love spending time in Los Angeles. On November 6, my boyfriend & I headed to LA for the evening in order to attend the Julian Casablancas + The Voidz performance at the Wiltern. If you've been keeping up with my blog you know I'm from the San Diego area, so heading to LA for a day trip is about a 2 hour journey. We headed out during the early afternoon & of course, there was traffic. D'oh!\nMy boyfriend was actually going to head to the show alone because he had to cover the event for a gig (he's a music journalist). I thought I'd come along for the journey so he didn't have to drive to & from LA on a weeknight, go to the show alone, & then have to go to work the next day. Am I a good girlfriend? Sure. Do I also enjoy music? Absolutely. Do I like LA? Most definitely. Aside from being tired for work the next day it was a no-brainer to attend.\nThe show was pretty cool. Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti opened up the night. I don't know if you can spot this in the photo (which is actually a film still), but he was wearing a sleeveless top, short shorts, tights, & high heel shoes similar to that of Jeffrey Campbell. Oh & the shoes were glittery. I'm almost certain that he's not gay. It was just for his performance. As my boyfriend commented, \"he's just eccentric, quirky.\" I thought it was cool. I really enjoyed his voice. He was entertaining, got the crowd going, & had kind of like an old-school rock voice to him.\nI found this simple yet cool graffiti on the bathroom stall. It was dated, initialed, & everything. It was just so nonchalantly written. I don't care if I wrote a quote in permanent marker. It's about the music, dude. I liked the grungy vibe of the people at the show. The artist & his music make a difference in who listens.\nNext up was Julian Casablancas + The Voids. They were quite energetic live. Julian has an edgy, raspy voice. Definitely a crooner. He was sporting a sleeveless denim vest & signature shaggy hair. In case you didn't know, Julian Casablancas is the lead singer of The Strokes. Here's a music video of JC + The Voidz.\nIf you want an alcohol beverage at the Wiltern, you're going to have to cough up about $12 for any type of drink. Yep, $12. You could buy a 6 pack of Lagunitas for less than that. However, that's the nature of going out at night. You have to pay for it. The bartender was nice though.\nGoing along with the grunge theme is this gorgeous toilet shot. Look at the purple walls, the way the water is moving. Just kidding. I just liked the composition of it all. The night was thrilling. It's exciting to have a mini road trip with a loved one. We played some music on the way up, found a quant place to get pizza, & watched a little bit of Ferris Bueller's Day Off before we walked to the venue.\nDo you go to live concerts & shows? Have you ever heard of The Strokes or The Voidz? Which photo is your favorite? :]\nStay tuned for more music, interviews, & pop culture:\nCalifornia, California lifestyle, Journal of my Journeys, lifestyle blog, Los Angeles, music, photo diary, photography, photos, pizza, style and lifestyle blog\nIvana Split November 13, 2014 at 5:42 AM\nI haven't heard about neither...if you have a youtube link, I'd love to check up these bands.\nI love concerts but I don't go very often....live music is always the best, though.\nGreat idea. I added a video link for The Voidz. Live music rocks. :]\nHelen Veyna November 13, 2014 at 6:54 AM\nI loved this review. I'm a huge fan of the Strokes, but I hadn't heard of Julian Casablancas and The Voids. Even though I'm from L.A., I have never been to the Wiltern, so it was nice to hear a little about your experience.\nYeah, I hadn't heard of them either, so here's to learning new things. :D\nJoanna Duffy November 13, 2014 at 8:07 AM\nI think his outfit is awesome!!

I'm glad that you enjoyed the music though. It sure looks like a fun night out!\nUgh, soooo pricey. $24 for 2 drinks is a crime!\nThe spiral D November 14, 2014 at 2:22 AM\nI've never been in LA but I want sooo much to go!!! Great photos dear\nOne day! Meanwhile, Italy is amazing. :D\nLooks like such a great time! Definitely worth the drive ;)\nClassToCloset\nThe drive back was way faster.

I don't do enough day trips- granted, I live in Chicago and there isn't too much around me that doesn't involve farm lands, but still. I'd definitely tag along to, work the next morning be damned. I'm always down for a good concert :) And that's the reason why double espresso coffee was invented!\nDo a day trip in Chicago. I'm sure there's so much you don't do simply because you're local! :D\nJanet Rouse November 17, 2014 at 1:17 PM\nI love Julian Casablancas and so jealous you got to see him live.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u203a Adultery \u203a Intimacy \u203a 5 Ways Social Media Has Changed the Dating Game\nPosted inAdultery, Intimacy\nThere areComments Off on 5 Ways Social Media Has Changed the Dating Game\nIf you\u2019ve been away from the dating scene for long, you may be surprised to find how much has changed. A nervous phone call has been replaced with an impersonal note or text; a private break-up has become a public spectacle.\nThere\u2019s no doubt that social media sites, such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, have improved our lives in many ways. It\u2019s free and easy to stay in touch with family and friends, find a job, or boost the visibility of a business, but its impact on the dating world has raised a host of concerns.\n#1 Contact Is Easier.\nIt used to take courage to ask someone out. The pursuer would write notes or practice in the mirror before knocking on the door of their beloved; the pursued would sit nervously by the phone for the long-awaited request for a date. Both had to master key social skills and learn the basics of communication.\nSocial media makes getting a date (and breaking up with a partner) as simple as the click of a mouse. This can have a number of positive and negative side effects. Because social media sites take away the immediacy of person-to-person contact, men and women are more likely to initiate contact than they once were. Distance, a busy schedule and lack of access to potential partners are no longer barriers to dating.\nOn the negative side, for those looking for a committed, long-term relationship, social media may be making it too easy to meet people. Easy accessibility to an enormous pool of potential partners may be contributing to serial dating (juggling multiple relationships at one time), promiscuity and infidelity.\nEven though we\u2019re able to contact a long list of people, social media sites may not be enabling the deep, long-lasting companionship that many hope to find. Rather than investing in one or two serious relationships, people may find themselves only superficially engaged in a series of short-term interactions.\n#2 In-Person Meetings Occur with Virtual Strangers.\nYou can learn a lot about a person through profiles and blogs before agreeing to meet. If they tweet, you can even find out mundane details about what they had for lunch or who they hung out with after work.\nBut even with extensive detective work, the truth is you never really know what you\u2019re going to get. While social networking sites attract millions of smart, well-adjusted people, there are just as many people lying about who they are, what they do and how they look. Some are outright dangerous. The truth is you never know which of these individuals will show up looking to take you on a date.\n#3 Private Life Is More Public.\nDepending on your privacy settings, status updates may allow your entire online social network to see the changes that take place in your personal life. Met a new beau? Great, but now the dilemmas begin: Who changes their Facebook status first? What if the other doesn\u2019t reciprocate?\nThe complications continue when a relationship ends. Is it cold-hearted to change your status to single right away? What if you\u2019ve been in a committed, long-term relationship with someone and you suddenly see that they changed their status to single? Does that mean the relationship is over?\nIf you\u2019re not meticulous about deleting records, social networking sites like Facebook make available all of the posts on your page since you first created your profile. This means people can look back at your history and see the start \u2013 and potentially embarrassing end \u2013 of past relationships. And you can do the same, making it difficult to move on from old flames that fizzled.\n#4 Conversations May Be Scripted.\nOn your first night out your date yells at the waiter and can hardly form a sentence. What happened? He was so polite and eloquent online.\nOnline we can choose to present ourselves not as who we are but as who we want to be. Your prospective partner may be hiding behind an alternate persona, or you may have created a false image of who you think the person is based on a few comments they made. Our best allies when looking for a partner \u2013 instincts and common sense \u2013 can become cloudy behind a computer screen.\n#5 Interpretation Is Difficult.\nAs a relatively new medium for dating, there is a lot of unchartered territory on social media sites. Instead of reading body language, tone of voice and other social cues, we get on our Facebook pages looking for signals whether someone is interested or not.\nIf she posts on your wall five times in one day, is it a red flag that she\u2019s too needy or obsessive? He hasn\u2019t updated his page since your blow-out fight; does that mean he\u2019s hiding his posts from you? Why is she untagging herself from all of the pictures of you as a couple?\nFor partners who are trying to interpret each other\u2019s cues from behind a computer screen, social media can be rife with misunderstandings and mixed messages. Because it is so easy to do, people may find themselves obsessively checking these sites and stalking their partners or potential partners.\nAn Obstacle to Healthy Intimacy\nOnline dating sites have helped thousands of people find love \u2013 as many as 120,000 married couples in just one year, according to a 2008 study. Much less reported are the number of unhealthy \u201chook-ups\u201d and mismatched \u2013 even dangerous \u2013 pairings that occur each year on social media sites.\nWhile there is a place for social media in our lives, we have to recognize and guard against the challenges it presents. If we\u2019re not careful, getting to know too many people too quickly can break down healthy personal boundaries and become an obstacle to genuine intimacy.\nWhile exchanging messages and virtual flirtations can be the start of a meaningful relationship, it can\u2019t end there. Good old-fashioned togetherness, conversation and mutual affection can be supplemented by social media, but not replaced.",

        "title": "Raina's Japan Travel Journal: Subculture in Ikebukuro",
        "raw_content": "Subculture in Ikebukuro\nFigurines on sale\nIkebukuro in Toshima Ward, is one of Tokyo's hubs offering an urban landscape of skyscrapers, plenty of shopping, including a mini Chinatown of sorts. However, the purpose of my visit was unfortunately, not stuffing my face with copious Chinese food nor was it going on a shopping spree at the major department stores located within walking distance from the station. Instead, I had the very interesting task of going in search of subculture in Toshima Ward.\nMention subculture and many tend to associate it with anime, manga, costume play (cosplay) as some of the more common ones. The subculture in Ikebukuro is geared more towards females, almost like the sibling of Akihabara. Both are open to visitors from either gender but a cursory glance at the clientele in shops at both places, Akihabara definitely has a higher percentage of male patrons while Ikebukuro has more females.\nA girl checking out the latest releases along the stairwell to Mandarake\nWhat makes Ikebukuro more female-friendly compared to Akihabara, one may ask. After all, both sell all things anime, manga and game related. My best guess is Ikebukuro is one of the hotbeds of dojinshi subculture, a kind of Japanese fan fiction which are mostly self published, and of which has many female fans. Dojinshi straddles the divide between girly and testosterone-charged comics, offering readers a alternative view of popular manga characters or original ones. Not all dojinshi are rated R, though many seem so based on their covers.\nWith that in mind, I set off to see what Ikebukuro has to offer in terms of anime and manga subculture, especially for foreign visitors. Many of the places I visited are in the vicinity of Sunshine City, a short walk from Ikebukuro Station. While I didn't see any one dressed up in a full on costume (it was a weekday, after all), I saw many girls, and funnily enough, only a handful of men in the shops I visited.\nThis is known as an Ita-bag, a bag covered in character badges\nI started off with a really fun activity at the Sega Game Center. The game center, or video game arcade, has six floors and offers plenty of choices for everyone. There are UFO catchers (claw crane game machines) with anime and manga goods inside, a boatload of video game machines, as well as casino-type game machines (minus the gambling element).\nBut my main objective was the print sticker machines (known as purikura, a registered trademark of Sega, derived from \"print club\") located on the sixth floor. The main draw for me was the availability of costumes there, allowing one to cosplay and take purikura (together known as cospuri) without having to lug clothes everywhere or spending too much money on clothes. There is a wide selection of outfits to choose from; however, note that many outfits come only in few sizes and those who are bigger than the average Japanese girl may find it hard to fit into the outfits. Males are not allowed to enter the sixth floor without a female companion.\nPurikura machines everywhere\nOutfit rental area\nThere's an English guide too. 200 yen for one outfit, 500 yen for as many outfit changes you want in a two hour limit\nA nurse and Sailor Moon\nMoving on from the game center, I headed to a number of shops that sold anime and manga as well as their associated goods. Animate carries official anime and manga goods, drawing many customers searching for their favorite products. Lashinbang and Mandarake are some of the other popular shops selling second hand as well as new figures, and it is not uncommon to see patrons sifting through the products looking for their pot of gold. Dojinshi manga was also popular at a number of places, and the number of titles was impressive. I had no idea that the dojinshi market was that big, but it is definitely very popular in Ikebukuro.\nGoods on sale at Animate\nManga galore\nRashinban offers pre-loved and pre-owned goods as well as new ones\nMandarake staff in costume\nMore dojinshi goods here\nA quick lunch stop at the very attractive Racine: Farm to Park cafe-restaurant at Minami Park was up next to digest all that I'd seen in the morning. It was a good change of scenery sitting in the park after submersing myself in the anime and manga world. I had wanted to visit a butler cafe (the male version of a maid cafe), but unfortunately it was closed when I was there.\nDefinitely a very mainstream place after all that\nLunch was delish\nOne of several Animate buildings in the area\nFrom goods, I moved on to cosplay, checking out Acos, a shop which sold wigs, costumes, colored contact lenses and everything you may need for cosplay. The range of outfits available tend to rotate, depending on the latest trends, but there are regulars and staples that players (people who cosplay are known as that) also go for. I learnt that the best way to personalise the wigs are to get them cut, just like you would with real hair. Conveniently located a floor above the Acos shop is HACOSTADIUM: cosset, a cosplay studio. The studio is spread across two floors, offering players different booths and scenarios to take pictures in. I saw a number of cosplayers having photo shoots while we were there, and some looked very professional indeed!\nLook at all these wigs\nCostumes for almost every occasion\nOur attempt at setting a scene\nBall pits are the epitome of fun\nNext, I headed to Sunshine City, which has two amusement parks. The two theme parks are owned by Bandai Namco and offers different attractions. Attractions inside both theme parks cost extra in addition to the entry fee.\nFirst up was Namja Town, an amusement park with 13 indoor attractions. The indoor route starts with the Gyoza Stadium where visitors can sample and compare the different dumplings from across the country. From there, the rest of the park is made up of three different zones, offering visitors an interesting variety of attractions.\nOne of the themed areas inside\nDelicious gyoza from around the country\nJ-World is the world's first Jump-themed amusement park where visitors can immerse themselves in the world of Jump, a brand of magazines that carries a wide variety of serial manga. Not only are there attractions from the manga and anime Dragonball, One Piece and Naruto, food sold in the amusement park is also inspired by the comic book characters. Definitely something you cannot get elsewhere!\nA One Piece attraction\nA Dragonball attraction\nFinally, I paid a quick visit to DiCE, a manga-kissa for those who end up having too much fun in Ikebukuro and miss their last train, or those who want to have a place to rest for a few hours. For those who have the image that internet cafes are table cubicles without much privacy, this one may impress you (I was impressed). The cheaper booths are like little rooms, while actual rooms are available for more money. All booths are equipped with a computer, and free amenities include magazines, manga, drinks, and showers (for the first 15 minutes). Definitely the place to go when you are out-anime'd and -manga'd in the city.\nOne of the fanciest rooms at a manga kissa I've seen, and this one has free karaoke\nDrinks station. Outside food is allowed too\nManga on all floors\nWith that, I ended my delve into subculture in Ikebukuro, just barely scratching the surface of the iceberg. Looking forward to more time in the city, and going a little deeper the next time!",

        "raw_content": "Is poetry lost or found in translation?\nBRIGHT MOON, WHITE CLOUDS: Selected Poems of Li Po, edited and translated by J.P. Seaton. Shambhala, 2012, 224 pp., $14.95 (paperback)\nKANEKO TOHTA: Selected Haiku 1937-1960, translated by The Kon Nichi Translation Group. Red Moon Press, 2012, 256 pp., $12.00 (paperback)\nTwo books of poetry, both pocket-size, and put out by small publishers in the United States, one in Boston, the other in Virginia (the former specializing in spiritually uplifting works, the latter in haiku); both are volumes of translation, from Chinese and Japanese respectively, and come with detailed notes about the poets and their work.\nLi Po (701-762), who is also sometimes known by other names such as Li Bai, is held to be one of the very greatest Chinese poets, from the golden age of poetry in the Tang dynasty. Not much is known about his life, though J.P. Seaton makes the best of what there is in a jocular introduction. Born in a remote area, somewhere on the borderlands of China, Li Po traveled a good deal, enjoyed distinguished company and patronage, including that of the emperor, and experienced some dramatic reverses. Famously, he drank a lot as well.\nThe classic story about the poet\u2019s death is that he fell into a pond and drowned trying to embrace the moon while he was drunk. He is often paired with the other great poet of the age, Tu Fu (712-770), with whom he was on friendly terms. Li Po cuts a more colorful and romantic figure, though some critics consider Tu Fu to have been more influential. There are some poems from Li Po addressed to his friend included here.\nArthur Waley, whom Seaton mentions in his account of Li Po\u2019s life, was one of the earliest to suggest that Chinese poetry was more about friendship than romantic love. Where the first section of five in the book is mostly about drinking, the second contains many poems about parting from friends, particularly other poets. Like Waley, Seaton renders the poems into English in unrhymed and fairly lucid versions. Sometimes he produces elegant lines, such as this sort of stretched alexandrine: \u201cOf what there is that may give joy I bid you take, and taste.\u201d\nIf Li Po saw himself as \u201ca Taoist Immortal banished from Heaven,\u201d Seaton updates him for modern times with references to Robin Hood and Timothy Leary. As a scholar of Chinese he is able to explain many things about the poems in the notes that follow, including the approach that he has taken to translation. His use of italics for stress, even in the poems, is a little irritating sometimes, but his versions of the poet are much better than the other two I have on my shelves.\nThe second book is more pioneering, in that it attempts to give a comprehensive view of an important living poet, Kaneko Tohta (b. 1919), and is the third in a projected series of four, though the first to present the poems. It is not as user-friendly, or as meticulous, as the volume above, but we note from the first verse the influence of Chinese poetry on haiku:\nwhite plum blossoms \u2014\nLao-Tzu dwells in a journey\nof no-mind\nAs we learn from the detailed chronology, the poet\u2019s father was serving in China as a doctor when Tohta was a child. Later the poet fought in the war in the Truk Islands, and then worked for the Bank of Japan when peace came, taking early retirement to devote himself to haiku. He continues to live in the area of Saitama where he was raised, and is today the head of the Modern Haiku Association in Japan. His work is much admired and has struck new paths.\nThe haiku are presented bilingually, with the vertical Japanese and horizontal English and romanized versions sometimes intersecting on the small pages. Now and then the poems are even printed diagonally across the page, so that the effect is rather like a scrapbook and quite unlike the neatly spaced lines of the original collections. The English versions are occasionally baffling, like this one with the last word left untranslated:\nmeat devoured\nin feast, of wilderness\nmy wife aware\nThere is a great deal of information in the notes, though they are not easily accessed since, although they are numbered, the haiku are not, and neither do the numbers refer to pages. There is an index of the poems in English, but not in Japanese. The grouping into sections divides them according to the parts of the poet\u2019s life. One begins: \u201cIn January 1958, Kaneko moved to Nagasaki. Although eight years had passed since the atomic bombing \u2026\u201d Whoever wrote that needs to study arithmetic, or history. We are also told that he was \u201cinterred\u201d [sic] in a POW camp.\nIn the introduction to the book another well-known poet, Tsubouchi Nenten, has both his names misspelled. There are a number of sloppy errors in the book like this, which is really a pity, because it is otherwise a valuable introduction, with much fascinating detail. There is an excellent, well-referenced essay on the Chichibu Incident by Ito Yuki, whom I take to be one of the more important contributors. But a poet of the caliber and distinction of Kaneko Tohta deserves to be treated with a lot more care in the editing and presentation of his work than he gets here.",

        "title": "Intro To Java Methods",
        "raw_content": "Intro To Java Methods\nFor those who would know, Java methods work almost identically to C++ functions, minus a bit of gory detail that I will spare here. Don't worry if you don't know what I'm talking about. As we'll be going over the basics of what they are.\nIn a lot of high level programming languages, there exists the concept of the subroutine. A subroutine is just a fancy name for a piece of code that can be used to do something over and over again. Usually this code exists outside of where the rest of the code is being written. Java calls these subroutines methods, and we're going to look at how to write basic Java methods that we can use with our programs that we create inside of the main method.\nThe Java Main Method\nDo you remember our very first program when we created:\nThis is not a Java method, but this is a call to a method. More on that in a bit.\nI keep mentioning the main method. Yes, main is a Java method. Let's see what main looks like again:\nThis is how you create Java methods. Main just happens to be a method that your main program needs in order to run. Let's break it down into components to see what everything stands for.\npublic static are just special keywords that Java uses to determine the type of method. They must always be in all lower case letters. I am not going to explain what these keywords mean in this tutorial, but please note that all methods we will be creating for these examples will have the words public static in front of them.\nVoid is called the return type of the method. A void return type means that the method does not return anything. What does it mean to return something? I'll explain that in a moment. For now I think the best example of this would be with the Scanner we've used in the past. Remember Scanner? And particularly remember this line of code?\nnextLine() is a method. This method returns a String. We did not code Scanner so I cannot show you the code for it, but basically the reason we can store whatever we get from nextLine() into a String variable is because the method gives us back, or returns a String variable to work with.\nThe program sees that line, then realizes it has to go into the code for Scanner. Specifically, it needs to go to the nextLine() method that was written inside the Scanner class. When it is done, that method returns a String, so that means when the program comes back from the Scanner class it brings a String with it. In this case, it brings back the String that the user typed.\nLastly, main has String[] args inside parenthesis. In Java, variables that you need to give to the method in order to work go in there as a comma separated list. These variables are called parameters. Each parameter is added by giving the type and then a name for that variable that you will use in that method only. Main HAS to have the String[] args parameter in order for programs to work, so we don't touch it. However, our own methods could have no parameters (nextLine() has no parameters) or many parameters, depending on what we need.\nWriting New Java Methods\nThe best way to figure out the way Java methods work is to see one in action. For this example, we're going to create a whole new Java class, so go ahead and do so. I'm going to call mine MainExample. You can call yours as you please. Your code, when you're ready to begin, should look like this:\nNow let's have the program output something. Add this line of code into the main method:\nThis is all stuff you have done before or should have done before. There's nothing new yet.\nNow we're going to introduce a new method. To do this, we're going to have to write code outside of the main method. You still need to write your code inside of the MethodExample class curly brackets, though. Add this code under the main method (outside of the main method closing bracket):\nWe've now created a new method called sayHello(). You'll notice that we have the same prefixes public and static in the front, and we've made the return type of the method void. This means the method will not return anything back. Last, we have no parameters because we wont need any for the operations it will perform. Let's have our method do something. Let's make it print out Hello world!\nAdd this line inside of your new method:\nYour program should now look like this:\nThe last thing we need to do is to use our new method. You can do that by adding this line of code under where you print out \"Method Example\":\nThat line of code will make a method call and execute any code inside of that method. Because it returns nothing, we're not setting a variable equal to it. Go ahead and run the code to see what it does.\nYou should have seen both lines of text displayed. If you did not, make sure you don't have any errors and that you didn't miss a step.\nAs you can see methods have the ability to make your code a lot easier to read and shorter by putting a lot of lines of code that you may use over and over again over in a separate area of the code. I can now use sayHello() whereever I want to make my code print out Hello world! You can of course make the method perform more complicated tasks, such as looping through values.\nBefore we tackle a slightly more complicated programming task, we need to go over one last detail, the return type. Remember how I said that a method might return some data depending on the return type? Consider this method:\nThis method returns an integer variable. A method can return one and only one variable, and this time it happens to be an int. A method with a return type must have a return statement at the very end of the method. There can be more placed throughout the method, but in generally one needs to exist at the very bottom of the method. In this case, we are returning num, so this method will return the integer value 5. What can we do with that value? Lots of things. Here's an example of storing the returned value:\nDo not be confused by me using the same variable twice. This num is different from the num used in the method. A variable created inside of a Java method only exist inside of that method. They do not exist anywhere else. Here the num is storing the value that the method five() is returning. So now this other num variable will be equal to 5.\nMethod Exercise\nIn this coding exercise we will use Java methods to have the computer output count from 1 to 5, and we will make it do this 5 times. We're also going to make sure to use a method in order to do this, but keep in mind that you don't necessarily need a method in order to accomplish this task.\nCreate a new Java class and call it FiveCounter. We're going to create our new method first, and it will take care of counting from 1 to 5. Call this new method counter(), and make its return type void.\nYour code should look like this at this point:\nNow let's add the code inside our new method to do the counting. Remember how to write a loop? That will be very useful for creating code that counts from 1 to 5, so go review it if you must.\nAdd a for loop inside your counter() method that goes from 1 to 5. Inside the for loop make sure to print out the counter variable. Your code should look similar to this:\nIn this case we're printing on one line at a time, but you can use System.out.print(x + \" \"); if you want to print the numbers out on the same line.\nThere, that part of the code is done. Now to tie this method back into the main method. Remember in main we want to be able to count from 1 to 5, but 5 times. Looks like we'll need another loop doesn't it?\nAdd this code to your main method:\n(or you can just use the same conditions for your for loop as in your new method, it doesn't matter.)\nInside the for loop you just made add this line of code so we can use our new method:\nAlso add a System.out.println(); right after that line of code so that the outputs are spaced out a bit. Okay, go ahead and run your program, and you should see that the computer has counted from 1 to 5, 5 times. The new method was executed 5 times because of the main method's for loop, and the numbers 1 to 5 were counted because of the for loop inside of the counter() method.\nThat's all there is for this basic introduction of Java methods! I hope you can learn to apply methods to as many parts of your code as possible. For those creating big programs, this should help a lot in making your code smaller and easier to read.

        "raw_content": "Here\u2019s the Key Difference Between Hospice and Palliative Care\nWhen you\u2019re dealing with the stress of having a loved family member sick in the hospital, it can be overwhelming. One way to prepare for some of the choices is to be informed. Knowing the difference between Hospice and Palliative Care as options may make these decisions easier. Both are words that are scary, strongly associated with death and dying. However, they can be part of difficult conversations you\u2019re already having.\nLet\u2019s discuss the difference between Hospice and Palliative Care\nPalliative care is medical care that is not focused on healing, but rather, on quality of life. For example, when you have surgery, the surgery itself is curative medicine, but painkillers your doctor gives you are palliative. Palliative care can be a part of any treatment. However, there may be a time when palliative and curative medicine come into conflict. Have conversations with your loved ones throughout their treatment about how they would like to proceed.\nYou may be familiar with hospice as the place where people go when the doctors \u201cgive up\u201d on their care. In reality, your loved one will continue to receive medical care from a team of doctors and medical professionals. The primary difference is that this care is all palliative and not curative. It can be difficult to have the conversation that leads to hospice care\u2014it is an acknowledgment that your loved one may not be recovering from their illness, and instead, are in the process of dying. However, hospice care focuses on making the end-of-life process as pain-free as possible and can allow your loved one to experience a higher quality of life. You can even have them receive hospice care at home!\nHospice is also a holistic kind of care, and also focuses on mental health. It can come with access to chaplains, counselors, and other emotional support for yourself and your loved one, and can allow you to say goodbye in a way that you and your loved one choose.\nHaving the conversations that lead to hospice or palliative care can be difficult, but being prepared with information can make decision-making and end of life planning much easier!",

        "title": "The Theory of Evolution in Not Actually a Theory After All.",
        "raw_content": "So What Really Makes Something A Theory Anyway?\nI appreciate the fact that our local paper allows the controversy surrounding evolution to be so well discussed in our community. That type of discussion seems to be missing from many of our classrooms. I am not writing to argue the fact or fallacy of evolution. I would like however to point out what I think are some common misconceptions regarding the theory of evolution. First of all, the theory of evolution is often compared to the theory of gravity. But when apples fall from a tree it is not due to the theory of gravity. It is due to the law of gravity as formulated by Issac Newton.\nGravitational theory attempts to explain the cause of gravity, not its effects. Secondly, science is not as straight-forward and objective as it is often made out to be. There are too many examples of bias in science to list so just one will have to suffice. When Charles Darwin published his book laying out the foundations of descent with modification he had no mechanism by which variations in populations could occur.\nWatson and Crick did not discover the structure of the DNA molecule until 100 years later. What Darwin did have was good circumstantial evidence. But even without a mechanism for change his theory was accepted. Alfred Wegener proposed a theory of continental drift that had as much, or more, circumstantial evidence as Darwin's theory. What it did not have was a mechanism by which the continents could move across the surface of the earth. His ideas were not just rejected, they were ridiculed in the scientific literature. But today plate tectonics is accepted as fact and explains everything from earthquakes to tsunamis.\nMy question is, why did science accept Darwin and not Wegener? Did the fact that Darwinism could do away with God have anything to do with it? Thirdly, the mechanism for evolutionary change is now thought to be mutations which are changes in the DNA of an organism. Teaching evolutionary theory is fine but the evidence that mutations are responsible for it is misleading at best.\nThe most common effect of a mutation is: nothing. That part of the DNA that has mutated is often not active in that particular cell. If a mutation does have an effect it is most likely detrimental to the either the cell or the organism. As far as I know, not one truly beneficial mutation has ever been proven. And, there is absolutely no empirical evidence that mutations, even if beneficial, have caused one type of organism to change into another.\nWhy then are mutations accepted as the cause of evolutionary change? Simply because there is nothing else. That to me is poor logic and poor science. If you are going to teach the evidence regarding evolution in schools then teach all of it, both the positive and the negative. I believe that our young people are intelligent enough to think for themselves.",

        "title": "British rapper Consensus explores a passion for physics through rap - The Johns Hopkins News-Letter",
        "raw_content": "courtesy of Jon Schroeder/JHU Consensus performed show \u2018ConCERNed\u2019 on the Hopkins campus, combining rap and STEM fields\nAs a result, I was excited to hear that the Physics department was hosting Consensus, a British rapper whose music is inspired by the science of particle physics. Although the Nov. 16 show \u2014 titled \u201cConCERNed: Using Hip-Hop to Engage New Audiences in Particle Physics\u201d \u2014 might not have taught me as much as Hamilton, it was still a greatly entertaining performance and a demonstration of the arts\u2019 utility, even in a STEM field.\nIbrahima Bah, an associate professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy who helped organize the event, commented on how science affects society as a whole.\n\u201cI believe that science should be accessible to anyone, and scientific thinking is important for a healthy society,\u201d he said. \u201cTo this end, it is important to find creative ways to excite people from wide and diverse backgrounds to explore science. In the rap format, Consensus is able to reach people who may not be the ones who would watch a nature special of nova, for example.\u201d\nThis educational aspect was heavily emphasized throughout Consensus\u2019 performance. Before each song, he explained the concept that had inspired the piece \u2014 antimatter, the Higgs boson \u2014 as well as the way that he had interpreted that concept into song.\nThough he claimed not to be a particularly political rapper, Consensus often included social issues in each song and used his music to further examine both science and society. Antimatter and matter became two warring gangs; the standard model of particle physics was paired with commentary on social media and body image; and the Higgs boson was transformed into a mafioso style gang boss. These segments were not just informative, but they also demonstrated the impressive creative effort that went into each song\u2019s construction.\nThe songs themselves were a fairly diverse bunch that spanned a number of genres. Some, like \u201cHiggs,\u201d were aggressive and energetic, during which Consensus ran through the audience and encouraged us to sing along. Others, like the aforementioned \u201cStandard Model,\u201d were a little more cool and restrained, which put greater emphasis on the lyrics and Consensus\u2019 presence at the front of the crowd. Each song felt completely distinct from the others, and the performance as a whole showed off the artist\u2019s considerable range as both a performer and as a composer.\nRegardless of the musical style, every song was also well written and witty, with every line seeming to contain a pun or a reference to the subject at hand. In fact, it was sometimes difficult to understand all of the references, due as much to the speed at which they were thrown out as to the broad range of subjects that they covered. My favorite part of the show was when Consensus played the music video for \u201cMethod to the Madness\u201d \u2014 in which he dances and raps through the European Organization for Nuclear Research\u2019s (CERN) hadron collider \u2014 not because of the song itself but because the lyrics were displayed on-screen, which allowed me to process the references and appreciate the clever wordplay.\nOverall Consensus put on an excellent show and proved to be a natural performer in front of an audience. In each part of the show \u2014 from the music to the Q&A where he spoke on subjects like his decision to incorporate science into his music and the impact that rap had on his childhood \u2014 he was entertaining and charismatic.\nIn fact, the only downside to the event was the fairly limited scope of the topics covered. Although Consensus did an excellent job of breaking down each concept in easy-to-understand language, it would have been nice if the explanation went beyond that initial definition. While I know very little about particle physics, I still recognized each of the concepts, but I walked away from the event feeling as if I hadn\u2019t learned much.

At long last all 13-episodes of the Eli Roth-produced Netflix Original Series \"Hemlock Grove\" is now available on the streaming service. But if you're in the mood for a bit of comedy with your gore, Amazon Instant Video now has the pilot episode of \"Zombieland: The Series\" streaming over on their service.\nWe've been super-stoked about \"Hemlock Grove\", which stars Famke Janssen, Dougray Scott, Bill Skarsg\u00e5rd, Landon Liboiron, Penelope Mitchell, and Freya Tingley to name a few, and have been hitting you up with updates on the long-awaited series for months. The wait is finally over and if you're a Netflix Instant subscriber you can check out the entire series now.\n\"Hemlock Grove\" is a riveting one-hour murder mystery that revolves around the residents of a former Pennsylvania steel town. When 17-year-old Brooke Bluebell is brutally murdered, any of Hemlock\u2019s peculiar inhabitants \u2013 or killer creatures \u2013 could be suspects. Through the investigation the town\u2019s seamier side is exposed, revealing nothing is what it seems. Beautiful, terrifying, and graphic, \"Hemlock Grove\" is unlike anything else in its genre.\"\nWhile we haven't had the highest of hopes for Amazon Studios' \"Zombieland\" we're hoping to be surprised by the pilot, which you can find right HERE. It runs slightly under 30 minutes so it's certainly worth giving a shot. \"Zombieland\" comes from the feature film's original creative team, writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, and producer Gavin Polone. Eli Craig (TUCKER AND DALE VS. EVIL) directed the pilot. The part of Tallahassee will be played by Kirk Ward, Maiara Walsh is cast as Wichita, Tyler Ross will play Columbus, and Izabela Vidovic has the role of Little Rock. The pilot episode has the following description:\nAdding new members to your post-apocalyptic \"family\" isn't as easy as it sounds. But at least sometimes you get pie.\nSo which one will you be checking out this weekend? Hit us with your thoughts below.\n\"Zombieland\" or \"Hemlock Grove\" : which one will you be checking out first?\nWill you be giving \"Zombieland\" a chance, or is \"Hemlock Grove\" more up your alley?\naaron douglas, aith, amazon, arrow in the head, bill skarsgard, comedy, dougray scott, eli roth, famke janssen, hemlock grove, horror, izabela vidovic, kirk ward, landon liboiron, Lili Taylor, maiara walsh, netflix, penelope mitchell, pilot, Trailer, tv, tyler ross, Zombieland",

        "raw_content": "CALGARY \u2014 Potential delays in the completion of the Keystone XL pipeline following a U.S. judge's order mean that Western Canadian oil producers could suffer current price discounts for a longer period of time, an industry spokesman says.\nOn Wednesday, U.S. District Court Judge Brian Morris ordered additional environmental study of the altered route through Nebraska for TransCanada Corp.'s proposed pipeline.\nThe potential setback illustrates how difficult it has become to relieve market access woes that have resulted in larger-than-usual price discounts for Western Canadian crude, said Chris Bloomer, CEO of the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association.\n\u201cWe need the pipeline, we need it yesterday and we need more market access across the board,\u201d he said in an interview.\n\u201cWe're not getting a fair price for our crude in the U.S. because of a lack of capacity. That's just fundamentally an issue.\u201d\nThe difference between Western Canadian Select and New York benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude was about US$25 per barrel on Wednesday, down from peaks over US$30 earlier this year but higher than historic averages in the mid-teens.\nCrude-by-rail exports from Canada reached an all-time record high of 199,000 bbls/d in May, up from about 131,000 bbls/d in May 2017, despite higher costs and a poorer safety record than pipeline shipments, Bloomer pointed out.\nThe U.S. lawsuit was brought by plaintiffs including the Indigenous Environmental Network and Northern Plains Resource Council after Nebraska state authorities approved an alternative route to the one TransCanada had proposed through the state.\nThe groups argued the U.S. State Department violated several acts in issuing a presidential permit for the pipeline without a proper environmental assessment of the changed route, but the judge rejected their request to revoke the permit issued by Donald Trump soon after he took office last year.\nTransCanada spokesman Terry Cunha said the company was studying the ruling and had no immediate comment.\nEnvironmental groups cheered the decision and called for TransCanada, which has not officially sanctioned the project, to abandon it.\n\u201cToday's ruling is a victory for clean water, climate, and communities that would be threatened by the Keystone XL pipeline,\u201d Sierra Club senior attorney Doug Hayes said in a news release.\n\u201cThis proposed project has been stalled for nearly a decade because it would be all risk and no reward, and despite the Trump administration's efforts, they cannot force this dirty tar sands pipeline on the American people.\u201d\nThe proposed 1,897-kilometre, $10-billion Keystone XL pipeline would carry crude from Hardisty, Alta., to Steel City, Neb.\nTwo other export pipelines, the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline being sold to the federal government and Enbridge Inc.'s Line 3 pipeline replacement, also face uncertainty.\nIn 2017, Canada's oil supply was 4.2 million bbls/d, which exceeded existing available pipeline capacity, according to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.\nIn June, CAPP predicted total Canadian oil production will increase to 5.6 million bbls/d by 2035, mainly due to a rise in oilsands production to 4.2 million bbls/d from 2.65 million bbls/d in 2017.\n\u200bAmarjeet Sohi in Manitoba for Line 3 groundbreaking\n\u200bArrests in Burnaby as eviction order enforced against Kinder Morgan protest camp\n\u200bKeystone XL's new route gets mostly clean U.S. environment report",

        "raw_content": "Sister Evelyn Joyce Metro, C.S.C. (Sister M. Francilda)\nEntered the Sisters of the Holy Cross from Gardena, California on January 24, 1948\nSister Evelyn Joyce Metro could tell a good story but one was never sure how much she exaggerated. However, it seems she had a grateful memory. By all accounts she was a lady to her fingertips, who kept her gracious composure, even when giving a disruptive eighth grader a piece of her mind. Later at the convent evening meal, she shared her rendition of the incident, always bringing laughter. Sister was a terrific junior high teacher who had a wonderful relationship with her students. She instinctively knew how to motivate them to tutor one another and redirect their negative energy into leadership of the class. Her 30 years teaching grades 5-8 were spent in Catholic schools in California, Washington, and Nevada (1950-1980). She also proved to be an excellent religion teacher and senior class advisor at Judge Memorial Catholic High School, Salt Lake City, Utah (1980-1988).\nIn 1947, applying to the Sisters of the Holy Cross, she had described herself as \u201ccheerful and even-tempered.\u201d In 1989 she wrote that the greatest gift she had to share was \u201cmy love of LIFE.\u201d There was not much difference between the girl and the mature woman. Almost every account of long ago events, recalled with gusto and good humor, ended with her saying, \u201cGod has been good. I have had a good life.\u201d\nSister Evelyn Joyce had ninety years of a good life. Sister M. Agnes Loretto (Scheberle), CSC, supported her application to enter the convent soon after graduation from Saint Agnes High School, Los Angeles, CA. Sister wrote that Evelyn was \u201cearnest and will make every effort to be a real Sister of the Holy Cross.\u201d Evelyn received the name Sister Mary Francilda at reception into the novitiate, until her family in 1967 asked her to return to her baptismal and family names when the option was offered.\nShe loved travel and wrote, \u201cWhile I don\u2019t think of myself as domestic, others tell me I\u2019m a good \u2018home-maker.\u2019\u201d She brought that gift to the Saint Mary\u2019s College Rome Program by being a welcoming presence to college women studying abroad, far from home (1989-1998). Dr. Portia Prebys was the director and recalls that Sister Evelyn was \u201ca gem of a person and a wonderful colleague\u201d who had a life-changing influence on the lives of several hundred students. She was \u201ca beacon\u201d for faculty, staff, the students and their families, and the Italians whose paths she crossed--and \u201ca profound example of living in faith, hope and charity.\u201d\nSister Evelyn Joyce left the Eternal City to live north of the City of Angels in Ventura, CA with her community at Saint Catherine by the Sea, eventually retiring there for 17 years. In 2015 Sister Rita Slattery assisted her in the move to Saint Mary\u2019s Convent, Notre Dame, IN and recently wrote, \u201cEvelyn Joyce was aware of her challenges at that time, but seemed able to face them with courage and hope.\u201d In all her 70 years of community life and ministry, Sister Evelyn Joyce was earnest and a real Sister of the Holy Cross. You may donate in Sister\u2019s name to the Ministry with the Poor Fund at www.cscsisters.org\nOn Thursday July 5, 2018 the Visitation in the Church of Our Lady of Loretto begins at 9:00 a.m. At 10:15 a.m are the Prayers in the Presence of the Body with Memento, followed immediately by the Mass of the Resurrection.

        "title": "The Derwent Project explained - About - Keswick Ministries",
        "raw_content": "For more than 140 years, Keswick Ministries has united God\u2019s people and strengthened the churches around the Word of God. The Convention has grown from a small gathering on the lawn at St John\u2019s Church, Keswick in 1875, to become a global movement for spiritual renewal and growth. We now welcome between 12,000 \u2013 15,000 Christians from across the UK and beyond each year split over a period of 3 weeks in the summer.\nThe Convention gives Christians from all walks of life the opportunity to spend a week or two in the beautiful Lake District, explore the area and attend the Convention with other Christians. For some, particularly families and those with disabilities, this is the only holiday they have a year. Many travel across Britain to spend time here. Our event is free of charge.\nAt the moment, we hold our annual Convention on two sites in Keswick. As both our sites are nearing capacity, we now have the opportunity to integrate our programme through the development of the former Derwent Pencil Factory site in Keswick.\nThis new facility will allow us to hold the Convention on one, integrated site rather than split out over two sites. The new venue will also see a 400-seater auditorium which is designed to allow for conferences and training events at other times of the year. This facility will also serve churches in the North of the UK and at times can be made available to other organisations needing a conference facility. This, in turn, will bring visitors to the town of Keswick at other times throughout the year.\nYou can see indicative plans for the new site by clicking here. Please read the Q&AS further down to for more details on how the three floors will be used.\nThe new site will allow us to:\n\u2022 Host our children\u2019s and young people\u2019s work, work for those with disabilities and missions exhibition alongside our adult programme.\n\u2022 Expand our teaching and training programmes at other times of the year.\n\u2022 Offer training for youth workers, preachers, leaders, pastors and mission workers.\n\u2022 Encourage and resource local churches in Cumbria and the North.\n\u2022 Strengthen and resource our UK and international partnerships.\n\u2022 Provide a venue for businesses and organisations looking for a local conference and meeting space\nOther things you might like to know about the new site:\n\u2022 We have hired the local architect, Stuart Woodall from Day Cummins, to help us develop the plans for the site. Stuart understands the local design needs and has also included features into the design which account for possible flooding in the future.\n\u2022 The total cost of the project is \u00a310m. This includes a \u00a35m refurbishment of the old pencil factory. We have taken local expressions of interest to see the fa\u00e7ade of the building retained into account and our architects are working on plans accordingly.\n\u2022 The extra space provided via the refurbished building will allow us to move some of the youth activities, which can be louder at times, inside the building.\n\u2022 An independent study done in 2010 shows that conventioners bring approximately \u00a32.5m to the town every summer. Since then we have grown considerably. We are estimating this number to now be at around \u00a33m. For example, we spend about \u00a3100,000 on non-food related supplies with local providers each year. We also purchase the equivalent of \u00a3250,000 worth of accommodation for our 650 volunteers and staff each year. All food for our staff and volunteers during the Convention is sourced locally. All guests to the Convention stay in accommodation in the Keswick area. Many will stay in B&Bs and self-catering cottages, some in hotels and camping sites.\nWe have put some answers together below to questions people have asked about the Derwent Project and our work. We would love to hear from you. If you have other questions concerning the project, please email these to us at communication@keswickministries.org. We shall be glad to answer these for you.\nWill the Pencil Factory be demolished as part of the Derwent Project? Based on the Architect\u2019s and structural surveyors input, the plan is to now refurbish the Pencil Factory, not to demolish it.\nWhat will happen to the fa\u00e7ade? The plan is to remove extraneous metalwork, restore and renew the fa\u00e7ade to its full potential.\nWhat will happen to the letters at the top of the building? With the Design Team, we are looking at how the lettering might be included in the overall design.\nWill the Pencil Factory site host a hotel? No.\nWill the refurbished pencil factory have beds? The refurbished building will see the number of beds we currently have at Skiddaw Street replicated. Keswick Ministries uses these beds for volunteer accommodation during the Convention and for small groups who use the facility at weekends. There are no plans to provide competitive, commercial accommodation.\nWhere will people who attend conferences or training at the Derwent site sleep? That would depend upon the size and nature of each conference.\nWill the old pencil factory site have a restaurant? No. We will continue to feed our volunteers, during the Convention, from the dining facilities in the new building, just as we currently do at Skiddaw Street. We will continue to encourage participants at any of our events to use the town\u2019s eating establishments.\nWill the pencil museum stay on the site? Yes.\nWhat happens if the refurbished building floods? The design will include flood resilience and will see the lower ground floor raised by 1m to above the water level reached during Storm Desmond, December 2015\nWill people still be able to park on the site? The Car Parks will be fully operational outside of the Convention weeks on both Rawnsley and Pencil Factory Sites. Provision will also be made for visitors to the Pencil Museum all the year round.\nWhat will happen to the Skiddaw Street building, currently owned by Keswick Ministries? This will be put up for sale, in order to fund the refurbishment of the Pencil Factory. We have an obligation to the Charity Commission to obtain the best value for the site.\nWill there be vehicular access and if so, where? There will be vehicular access for drop offs for example which will run behind the Pencil Factory.\nHow will people get into the site by foot? People access and egress during the Convention is going to be a key part of the next stage of our design process.\nHow will the site serve the rest of the Keswick community? It will provide a Conference Centre that will attract visitors to Keswick, more car parking for the town and continue to host the pencil museum. As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility goal, our intention is to make the Conference Centre available to the town of Keswick.\nWill you use local builders for the project? We are already using local builders for the offices at Rawnsley Hall, and where possible we will invite local contractors to tender.",

However, it follows from previous research that found positive effects of a child being old for their grade was the same for students who began school late or for those who repeated a grade.\nResearcher Professor Herbert Marsh, from the ACU's Institute of Positive Psychology and Education, said, \"Being older in your class has advantages for your academic self-confidence.\n\"Self-beliefs are a driving force in young people\u2019s academic decision-making processes. Numerous studies show that such self-beliefs predict educational aspirations,\" he explained.\nOlder children are able to compare themselves more favourably to their younger peers, giving them greater self-confidence and therefore more chance of academic success.\nIn the paper, the researchers noted that when students are held back, or repeat a year parents and policy-makers often discuss the short-term effect on a child, be it shame or dismay. However, \"from our perspective,\" the study's authors wrote, \"the joy or shame that comes from acceleration or retention is likely to erode over time, whereas the ever-present comparison with same class peers becomes an indomitable influence in the way in which children come to view themselves academically.\"",

It's important that your information be documented as soon as possible. It will be used as valuable evidence later, but by the time you have your day in court, the injuries may have healed and you will have no proof of them.\nA lawyer is hired by you, and you are paying for their service. Because of this, they should treat you with respect and give you plenty of time for questions. When they don't answer questions or don't communicate well, don't hire them. Also, if you are having a hard time getting ahold of your attorney, you should consider finding a new one.\nDo not stretch the truth in order to get a bigger settlement in a lawsuit.

While we've seen a surge before, what's happening this week is particularly acute. Prices in San Diego are up nearly 60 cents from last week. In Los Angeles, that jump has been 70 cents. It seems the spike was triggered by a federal report highlighting a fuel shortage in the state.\nDrought Forces Cattle Ranchers to Auction Off Herds\nYou've heard about farmers in the Central Valley fallowing thousands of acres because of the drought.

He published numerous books, guidelines, and articles on heath care of sex life, conducting one of the pioneer researches on prostitution. He also dealt with dental health, skin disease, and addiction. His book Duhan (Tobacco) received an award at 1900 World Exhibition in Paris. He strongly opposed to tobacco, black coffee, and alcohol consumption, which made him unpopular in the town of the Statutes of Kri\u017eevci, the best known Croatian rules on companionable wine-drinking. Fran Gundrum believed that human life could be extended by regular exercises, such as swimming or bicycle rides, so he invented a \"machine for swimming outside the water\". He studied the rich heritage of Croatia, turning to tradition for inspiration. He was buried in Mirogoj Cemetery, Zagreb.Fran Gundrum's walks along Kri\u017eevci became legendary. Local people used to adjust their clocks according to Fran's walks, since he would go for a walk and return form it at exactly the same time each day.\nHe conducted the research on \"the oldest profession in the world\" in 1907, forming it as a \" statement on prostitutes \": Everyone seems to agree that this special issue has to be dealt with great care, if we are to take into consideration all the aspects of prostitution. It is very important to focus on the reasons that lead vulnerable young women into prostitution, as well as the connection between prostitution and the greatest evil of our day, excessive alcohol consumption.\nHe supported early sex education of children and teenagers: A child should be provided with learning opportunities which will foster better understanding of human relationships. Children can adopt their parents' life values. I disagree with the view that children shouldn't be told the truth, or get familiar with human relations, and that, when they ask certain questions, the parents should tell them lies, or some harmless, but misleading fairy tales.",

        "raw_content": "Lightning injures dozens in France, Germany\nPARIS (AP) \u2014 Two separate lightning strikes in Europe injured dozens of people, including a number of children are fighting for their lives, officials say.\nEight children and three adults were struck by lightning Saturday in a Paris park after a sudden spring storm sent a bolt crashing down upon a children's birthday party, a spokesman for Paris' fire service said. He credited an off-duty firefighter with playing a critical role in getting medical help to the victims but some were still fighting for their lives.\nAnother group of people at a children's soccer match in western Germany were also hit by lightning Saturday afternoon, leaving three adults seriously injured.\nThe birthday group had sought shelter under a tree at Park Monceau, a northwest Paris park popular with well-to-do families, when a lightning bolt touched down, according to Paris fire service spokesman Eric Moulin. He said Cmdr. Pascal Gremillet, an off-duty firefighter, was visiting a museum nearby when he noticed the commotion and discovered nine of the 11 victims lying unconscious on the ground under the three. He immediately went to work.\n\"He saw who was the most seriously injured. He did a quick triage of the victims. He did first aid. He alerted the rescue services,\" Moulin told The Associated Press. \"Without his actions, it would have been much worse.\"\nMoulin said six of those hit were seriously injured \u2014 with three children and one adult fighting for their lives. He said five others had been slightly injured by the lightning, including four children.\nFootage shot by the fire service showed a dramatic scene at a nearby bank that was commandeered as a makeshift treatment center, with children wrapped in gold thermal blankets sitting and lying on the building's tiled floor as firefighters administered first aid before evacuating the victims to area hospitals. Two small feet, smudged with what looked like soot, stuck out from underneath one of the blankets.\nMoulin gave the children's ages as around 9 years old.\nAn Associated Press reporter at the scene saw an abandoned pair of children's glasses and jacket near the tree. White-and-red tape was strung around the area and whistle-blowing park wardens ushered weekend joggers out of the park, which was swiftly closed.\n\"This accident is extremely rare in the Paris region,\" professor Pierre Carli, an emergency medical services official, told reporters at a press conference following the strike.\nOne Paris resident who lives near the park and saw the lightning crash down said it was rare to see such a wild storm hitting the French capital.\n\"It was dramatic,\" said resident Jean-Louis Laurens.\nStorms had violent consequences elsewhere in Europe.\nPolice in Germany said 35 people were taken to the hospital after lightning struck a children's soccer match Saturday afternoon in western Germany. Three adults were seriously injured in the strike in Hoppstaetten, including the referee.\nAnother 32 people, among them 30 children aged from nine to 11, were taken to the hospital as a precaution, the dpa news agency reported.\nThe game had just finished when lightning struck suddenly at about 2 p.m., police spokesman Dominik Lentz told n-tv television.\n\"According to what everyone present says, there were no clouds in the sky ... so this incident couldn't have been expected,\" he said.\nParts of western Germany have seen storms, heavy rain and hail over the past two days.",

My mom is the reason why I love music so much and while she introduced me to much of the popular music in the 70s on the FM dial, my mom also dedicated equal time to the oldies on the AM dial. I loved everything I heard. My mom would sing and I became a better person for it. I would make my mischief around our home while the music played and my mom sang all day. I didn\u2019t care about stereo. When I was a growing boy in the 70s, the familiar crackling of the AM stations gave me an appreciation for music even before my mom was born.\nI\u2019m going to begin a set of covers that I\u2019ve been singing since the times I couldn\u2019t yet sing.

Henry though, reportedly was not fond of Belle, finding her to be crude and reprehensible, quickly informing anyone who commented on the relationship, that she was his aunt by marriage only.\nDuring the time of Starr\u2019s youth, the northeastern corner of Indian Territory was rugged and untamed, often referred to as the \u201cLand of the Six-Gun\u201d and the \u201cRobbers\u2019 Roost.\u201d The rough terrain of the area provided a number of natural hideouts for thieves, murderers, and other outlaws seeking refuge from the law.\nIn 1886, Henry\u2019s father died leaving Mary to care for three children and the family farm. However, within just a few months she remarried a man by the name of C.N. Walker, who Henry hated. Starr felt that Walker was inferior because his veins contained no Indian blood. Walker was also abusive and he and Henry had immediate problems. Within just a few short months of his mother\u2019s remarriage Henry left home.\nBy the age of sixteen, while Henry was working on a ranch near Nowata, in Indian Territory, he had his first run-in with the law. As Henry was driving a wagon to town two deputy marshals caught him with whiskey and arrested him for \u201cintroducing spirits into territory.\u201d Though he plead guilty to the offense, he maintained that he was innocent, having borrowed the wagon without knowing that the whiskey was in it.\nStarr returned to Nowata and continued to work as a cowboy, but it wasn\u2019t long before he had another run-in with the law. In December 1891, he was arrested for stealing a horse, again he denied the charge, but was locked up at Fort Smith, Arkansas anyway. His cousin paid his bail and Starr hit the road, with a warrant for his arrest hanging over his head. After jumping bail, Henry had made a conscious choice to live on the wrong side of the law. The warrant for Starr\u2019s arrest was given to Deputy Marshals Henry C. Dickey and Floyd Wilson who were quickly on Henry\u2019s tail.\nJoining up with Ed Newcome and Jesse Jackson, the gang began to rob stores and railroad depots. Hitting their first railroad depot right where he lived, Starr and his gang relieved the Nowata Depot of $1,700 in July 1892. In November 1892, they hit Shufeldts Store at Lenapah, Indian Territory taking $300 and in the same month robbed Carter\u2019s Store in Sequoyah, Indian Territory making off with $180.\nBy December 1892, Deputy Marshals Dickey and Wilson were very close to finding Henry. Following his trail, the two marshals arrived at Arthur Dodge\u2019s \u201cXU Ranch,\u201d eight miles from Nowata, where it was rumored that the Starr Gang might be meeting. Upon arriving at the ranch, the marshals questioned Arthur Dodge who denied knowing Starr personally, but stated that he had seen the bandit ride by the ranch several times. The lawmen searched the surrounding countryside until late into the night, but found no trace of Starr or his gang. However, the next day, on December 13, 1892, the two lawmen were having dinner at the Dodge Ranch when Mr. Dodge informed them that he had seen Henry that day while working on the ranch.\nWilson rushed to the barn, mounted an already saddled horse, and sped off in pursuit of Henry. Dickey\u2019s mount was unsaddled so he was several minutes behind Wilson. Before long, Wilson found Henry in an opening on Wolf Creek. Spotting each other at almost the same moment, Starr dropped from his saddle while Wilson remained mounted about thirty yards away. Wilson ordered Henry to surrender, but Henry just \u201cwalked away.\u201d Wilson then stated that he had a warrant for his arrest and rode closer to Henry, stopping some 25 or 30 feet from him. Wilson then dismounted, raised his rifle, and fired a warning shot over Henry\u2019s head.\nWith that first shot, Starr returned fire and a gunfight ensued. Wilson was hit and fell to the ground, badly wounded. When Wilson tried to load a fresh cartridge into his rifle, the weapon jammed and he threw it aside, reaching for his pistol. Starr fired two more shots and Wilson sank to the ground, too weak to defend himself.\nThen, calmly walking over to Wilson, Starr fired one more round into his heart. At the sounds of the shots, the frightened horses rode away, but Henry was able to catch Wilson\u2019s horse and took off. By the time Marshal Dickey arrived, the whole affair was over and Starr was long gone.\nNow, Henry was wanted for murder and the law doubled their efforts to find him. On January 20, 1893, Starr was nearly caught when Indian Police picked up his trail near Bartlesville, I.T. (Indian Territory). A gun battle broke out but Starr was able to escape. Teaming up with a man by the name of Frank Cheney, Starr and Cheney robbed the MKT railroad depot of $180 and Haden\u2019s Store of $390 in Choteau, I.T. In February, they hit the railroad depot and general store in Inola, I.T. making off with $220.\nSeemingly not bothered by the law hot on their trail, Starr and Cheney grew bolder and robbed their first bank in Caney, Kansas on March 28, 1893, relieving the Caney Valley Bank of $4,900. The two men entered the Caney National Bank with their revolvers drawn. Cheney entered the vault carrying an old two-bushel sack and emerged from the vault with the bag filled with currency. Starr and his partner locked the bank\u2019s customers and employees in a back room and exited the bank. One Kansas newspaper said of the robbery that it was \u201cone of the boldest and most daring robberies known to border history.\u201d\nJust a little more than a month later, they robbed their first passenger train at Pryor Creek, I.T., making off with $6,000.\nNot to be stopped, Starr chose the People\u2019s Bank of Bentonville, Arkansas for their next robbery. On June 5, 1893, Starr and four partners rode into the small, northwest Arkansas town. However, by 1893, Starr was an infamous man and people recognized him as soon as he entered the town.",

        "raw_content": "Right to Hope. That\u2019s Life!\nThe Constitutional Court has ruled, in the case of Brian Vella v. The Attorney General, that life sentences without parole which cannot be reviewed violate Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights: that no one shall be subjected to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.\nWhat tipped the balance was Vinter and Others v. The United Kingdom, decided by the European Court of Human Rights in 2013. The Grand Chamber gave an evolutive interpretation of Article 3 as encompassing what might be described as \u201cthe right to hope\u201d. \u201cIn the context of a life sentence Article 3 must be interpreted as requiring reducibility of the sentence, in the sense of a review which allows the domestic authorities to consider whether any changes in the life prisoner are so significant, and such progress towards rehabilitation has been made in the course of the sentence, as to mean that continued detention can no longer be justified on legitimate penological grounds.\u201d In her concurring opinion, Judge Ann Power-Forde argued that \u201clong and deserved though their prison sentences may be, they retain the right to hope that, someday, they may have atoned for the wrongs which they have committed\u201d. The facts peculiar to the case raised the question whether English law violated Article 3 since it did not provide any real opportunity to review life-long sentences without parole. This was held so, notwithstanding the discretion of the Secretary of State for Justice to release a prisoner sentenced to a whole life order if he is satisfied that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the prisoner\u2019s release on compassionate grounds. The Court noted that these \u2018exceptional circumstances\u2019 were narrowed down by the \u2018Lifer Manual\u2019 to those prisoners who were terminally ill or physically incapacitated.\nVinter had a knock-on effect on subsequent actions brought before the ECtHR, such as in Trabelsi v. Belgium (2015), only to be \u2018faltered\u2019 by Hutchinson v. The United Kingdom in 2017. In Hutchinson, the Chamber cited R v. McLoughlin (Court of Appeal of England and Wales), recognising that the Secretary of State \u201ccannot fetter his discretion by taking into account only the matters set out in the Lifer Manual\u201d, therefore asserting that the Secretary of State was bound to exercise his power in a manner compatible with Article 3. For these reasons, the ECtHR held that there had not been a violation of the Convention.\nAgainst this background, Brian Vella v. The Attorney General has broken new ground in that it found that the Presidential Pardon, also known as the Prerogative of Mercy, enshrined in Article 93 of the Constitution of Malta, does not provide for an efficacious mechanism to safeguard a person\u2019s right not be subjected to inhuman or degrading treatment, for the reason that it does not hinge on prescribed criteria or clear established procedures. In addition, adopting the reasoning of the ECtHR in Vinter, the Constitutional Court found that, as the law stands, it does not provide for the review of life-long sentences before the Parole Board, or otherwise.\nTherefore, the Court held that a violation of Article 3 subsists and ordered that the applicant\u2019s case be brought before the Parole Board on the lapse of 25 years from the date of the judgement, unless a law is enacted which overrides such.",

        "raw_content": "Acidity Regulators in Foods: Everything You Need to Know\nHome/Health & Wellness, Lifestyle/Acidity Regulators in Foods: Everything You Need to Know\nIs the soup you boiled for dinner too bland? If you are looking for ways to improve your cooking, you probably know about acidity regulators in foods.\nAcidity regulators in foods, or food additives, are the compounds that enhance the tastes of our favorite dishes. You\u2019ve probably heard about how dangerous they are.\nYou will want to know about the commonly used and harmful ones. We have some answers.\nWhat are Acidity Regulators in Foods\nFood manufacturers add acidity regulators (food additives or pH control agents) to food to maintain pH levels. These can be mineral acids, organic compounds, or neutralizing agents. They preserve foods and enhance their appearance.\nCommon regulators include ascorbic (Vitamin C), acetic, propionic and benzoic acids. An E in front of their numbers indicate that they are acids.\nNote that these are different from acidulants, which sour the flavor of food. These mainly serve as preservatives.\nBenefits and disadvantages of Acidity Regulators in Food\nA distinct advantage of acidity regulators is that they improve the taste of our dishes. These additives also promote their longevity.\nHowever, they may have undesired adverse effects. Many of these are harmful when consumed in large doses, e.g., too much salt can cause hypertension.\nSome of these additives may affect us even when they are in small amounts, e.g., Tartrazine can cause severe allergic reactions in asthmatics.\nThe Most Used Acidity Regulators in Foods and their Side Effects\nSo, what are some of the conventional additives used in the food industry? How do they affect us?\nIf you add NutraSweet or Equal to your coffee, tea, or cake mix, you are familiar with artificial sweeteners. You will find these in foods that have no sugar.\nThe scientific name given to these is Aspartame. Researchers have suggested an urgent evaluation of this compound because of its cancer-causing risk. They have produced statistics regarding its carcinogenic effects.\nSince Aspartame is a neurotoxin, it can trigger disorders like lymphoma, migraines, sclerosis, mental confusion, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue. It also has a link with kidney tumors.\nHFCS is also an artificial sweetener. It is the primary source of calories for overweight individuals in the United States. You will find it in processed foods, and it adds weight faster than other food additives.\nTherefore, it contributes to cholesterol levels. This study on rats shows that it causes obesity.\nMSG enhances soups, chips, salad dressings, and entrees. Consuming it may cause confusion, eye damage, headaches, fatigue, and obesity. It prompts the brain to ignore the \u2018I\u2019m full\u201d feeling.\nThis study on rats highlights that too much consumption of it causes impaired brain function.\nFood manufacturers use trans fat to enhance the taste of puff pastries. It is one of the most dangerous acidity regulators in foods. You will find it in many hydrogenated oils.\nResearch proves that it decreases HDL (good cholesterol), therefore increasing the risk of heart attacks and inflammation.\n5. Food colorings\nThese may make desserts and soft drinks attractive but can cause severe damage, as research proves.\nCommon dyes like Blues One and Two can cause chromosomal damage. You will find it in soft drinks, cereal, and candy. Red dye triggers thyroid cancer cells and interferes with brain nerve transmission.\nYellow color, found in American cheeses, destroys chromosomes as well.\n6. Sodium Sulfite\nYou will find this preservative in wines and processed food. It is the primary cause of food sensitivity. Most individuals whose bodies react strongly to this compound may have headaches, breathing problems, and rashes.\nThis study reveals that those who are sensitive to sodium sulfate may experience respiratory, skin, and gastrointestinal issues.\n7. Sodium nitrite\nThis additive shows as a preservative, flavoring, and coloring, in processed meats. Though it sounds harmless, it is highly carcinogenic.\nThe USDA attempted to ban sodium nitrate in the 1970s, but manufacturers protested because they had no alternative for preserving food.\nButylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and Butylated Hydroxytoluene (BHT) are common preservatives in cereals, vegetable oils, and potato chips.\nManufacturers add them so that food doesn\u2019t discolor. This research shows that it affected the livers of rainbow trout.\n9. Sulfur dioxide\nThis additive is common in beer, dried fruit, wine, potato chips, vinegar, and other products. It is responsible for many bronchial problems in persons with asthma.\nThis compound can send a person into anaphylactic shock, according to studies.\n10. Potassium bromate\nThis additive increases the volume of flour and bread. Research demonstrates that it induces tumors in the nose. Furthermore, it is carcinogenic.\nAre Acidity Regulators in Foods Necessary?\nManufacturers put acidity regulators in food for preservation, and this is perfectly understandable. Weather patterns and busy lifestyles entail that restore food for future use. It makes food attractive and reduces the cost of production.\nHowever, as discussed above, these additives are harmful. Although many of them, such as lecithin in soybeans, are naturally occurring substances, they aren\u2019t safe to consume.\nAlthough it isn\u2019t possible to avoid them altogether, you can reduce them in your diet. Read labels and refuse to buy products with too many of them. You will send manufacturers the message that you demand wholesome food.\nIn all, acidity regulators in food can have disastrous effects. However, you can substitute them with Whole Foods. A little awareness will reduce them in your diet.\nBy Michelle L|2018-07-04T13:54:51+00:00July 4th, 2018|Categories: Health & Wellness, Lifestyle|Tags: body, diet, food, happiness, health, health tips, human body, nutrition, self improvement, weight loss|0 Comments",

        "raw_content": "Celtic Knots | Celtic Knotwork\nThe people who made up the various Celtic tribes were called Keltoi by the Greeks.\nSince no soft c exists in Greek, \"Celt\" and \"Celtic\" should be pronounced with a hard k sound.\nInformation in this article is sourced from Wikipedia\nA small part of the Great Pavement. The mosaic is 48' by 48' and uses 1.5 million pieces of stone, each 1/2 inch square. Once the floor of a main hall of a Roman villa, it was laid around AD 325.\nThe use of interlace patterns had its origins in the artwork of the late Roman Empire. Knot patterns first appeared in the third and fourth centuries AD and can be seen in Roman floor mosaics of that time. Interesting developments in the artistic use of interlaced knot patterns are found in Byzantine architecture and book illumination, Coptic art, Celtic art, Islamic art, Medieval Russian book illumination, Ethiopian art, and European architecture and book illumination.\nSpirals, step patterns, and key patterns are dominant motifs in Celtic art prior to the Christian influence on the Celts, which began around 450 A.D. These designs found their way into early Christian manuscripts and artwork with the addition of depictions from life, such as animals, plants and even humans. In the beginning, the patterns were intricate interwoven cords, called plaits, which can also be found in other areas of Europe, such as Italy, in the 6th century. A fragment of a Gospel Book, now in the Durham Cathedral library and created in northern Britain in the 7th century, contains the earliest example of true knotted designs in the Celtic manner.\nCarpet from the Lindisfarne Gospels showing plaitwork, zoomorphics, key & step patterns. Click image for larger view.\nSt. John Knot from the Lindisfarne Gospels 700 AD\nExamples of plait work (a woven, unbroken cord design) predate knotwork designs in several cultures around the world, but the broken and reconnected plait work that is characteristic of true knotwork began in Northern Italy and Southern Gaul and spread to Ireland by the 7th century. The style is most commonly associated with the Celtic lands, but it was also practiced extensively in England and was exported to Europe by Irish and Northumbrian monastic activities on the continent. J. Romilly Allen has identified \"eight elementary knots which form the basis of nearly all the interlaced patterns in Celtic decorative art\". In modern times Celtic Art is popularly thought of in terms of national identity and therefore specifically Irish, Scottish or Welsh.\nThe triquetra or Trinity Knot is the most familiar of the Celtic Knot patterns. It is often found in Insular art, most notably metal work and in illuminated manuscripts like the Book of Kells. It is also found in similar artwork on Celtic crosses and slabs from the early Christian period. In manuscripts it was used primarily as a space filler or ornament in much more complex compositions, and in knotwork panels it is a design motif integrated with other design elements. Celtic art lives on as both a living folk art tradition and through several revivals. This widely recognized knot has been used as a singular symbol for the past two centuries by Celtic Christians, Pagans and agnostics as a sign of special things and persons that are threefold.",

        "title": "Along the Karakoram Highway: A photo essay (part 2) | The Interpreter",
        "raw_content": "Along the Karakoram Highway: A photo essay (part 2)\nArzan Tarapore\nArzan Tarapore ,\nThe storied Karakoram Highway (KKH), a modern incarnation of the ancient silk road, is the primary ground transport link between China and Pakistan, and the highest paved road in the world. The existing Highway, completed in 1978, is undergoing a major reconstruction. Along with other transport and energy development projects, the Highway upgrade is aimed at promoting economic development for the two countries. But if those projects work they will also bind them more closely strategically, and strengthen the writ of the state in sparsely-populated restive regions of both countries.\nThis photo essay illustrates some of those issues. The photos were taken in early July 2016, when I and my party drove along the entire Chinese part of the Karakoram Highway, from Kashgar to the Pakistani border. Part 1 of this essay is here.\n6- IMG_7631.jpg\nAt Bulunkou Lake, where the reconstructed road (left) skirts a newly-created reservoir that submerged the original road (right).\nThe upgrade of the Karakoram Highway has been accompanied by several energy projects, including hydropower stations such as this one at Bulunkou Lake. The newly reconstructed sections of the Highway are in extremely good condition, with virtually no potholes. Probably not coincidentally, the Highway also seemed very lightly trafficked (we observed virtually no goods-carrying trucks), likely because large sections remain under construction.\nPropaganda billboards along the Karakoram Highway, about 40km south of the village of Upal.\nThe temporary propaganda billboards that festooned construction sites along the Highway were typical of Xinjiang as a whole, where propaganda is more heavy-handed than in major metropolitan centres in 'inland' China. The propaganda pictured here typifies many of the themes we observed in Xinjiang: extolling the promised economic and social benefits of the New Silk Road projects, celebrating China's partnership with Pakistan, and praising the 'civilising' mission of the Communist Party.\nPolice patrol on the main street of Upal village.\nThe People's Armed Police (PAP) maintained a highly visible presence in all population centres we visited in Xinjiang. They often patrolled in numbers, often heavily armed, with automatic rifles and personal protective equipment. Our visit coincided with the end of Ramzan, and on Eid, heavily armed PAP personnel, accompanied by armoured vehicles, took up position in the town square in Tashgurkan, probably as a show-of-force deterrent. Other security measures were omnipresent; several checkpoints along the Karakoram Highway, and throughout Xinjiang, inspect Chinese citizens' ID cards, which are electronically encoded with personal data. Xinjiang has suffered a long-running insurrection by Uyghur separatists, which at times has involved al Qaeda-linked terrorists. But more recently, Beijing has touted the success of its security clamp-down following a spike in violence in 2013-14.\nLocals spending time at the night market, Kashgar.\nThe Chinese Communist Party has taken aggressive measures to consolidate political control in Xinjiang. In addition to direct security measures, the state has adopted a carrot-and-stick approach that involves rapid economic development as well as restrictions on Muslim and Uyghur religious and ethnic traditions. Thus, for example, Uyghurs have tight restrictions and quotas on making the Hajj pilgrimage, Uyghur civil servants and students are banned from fasting for Ramzan, and the state's 'Project Beauty' heavily restricts women and men wearing veils and beards.\n10- IMG_7898.jpg\nRows of recently-built apartment buildings in Yarkant, Xinjiang (near but not on the Karakoram Highway).\nAlong with restrictions on traditional cultural practices, the Chinese state has sought to rapidly urbanise the local population and to introduce large numbers of internal Han migrants from 'inland' China. In this ambitious program of economic and social engineering, it has moved people out of traditional housing and into newly-built standardised apartment buildings. It has also built massive new commercial developments such as shopping malls, industrial parks, and even circuses. Much of this residential and commercial property anticipates the economic boon of One Belt One Road. But for now, much of it lies unoccupied; shop-owners are reluctant to relocate to distant new exurbs and families resent the destruction of traditional social networks.\nBuying and selling cattle, sheep, and goats at the weekly livestock market in Kashgar.\nThe Chinese terminus of the Karakoram Highway, Kashgar, has long been a regional commercial centre. It hosts a weekly livestock market \u2014 a central part of the local economy \u2014 that draws traders from around the hinterland. In coming decades, the span of Kashgar's geoeconomic significance will expand. As CPEC and other regional economic arrangements are gradually realised (beginning with the reconstruction of the Karakoram Highway), Kashgar will be the primary Chinese node for burgeoning trade and communications links with South and Southwest Asia.\nThe Global Times and Beijing: A nuanced relationshipPrevious Article\nWill Smith is right, everything is not getting worseNext Article\nSurely working with our nearest neighbours on the issues most important to them is in Australia\u2019s national interest.\nHelping the UN help Myanmar\nby Morten B.

It was the party's worst performance since 1950 in a state vote in Bavaria, which it has traditionally dominated.\nConstant squabbling in Merkel's national government and a power struggle at home have weighed on the CSU. It is traditionally a touch more right-wing than the chancellor's party and has taken a hard-line on migration, clashing with Merkel on the issue.\nThere were gains for parties to its left and right. The Greens won 17.5 percent to secure second place, double their support in 2013. The far-right Alternative for Germany, or AfD, entered the state legislature with 10.2 percent of the vote.\nMeanwhile, the center-left Social Democrats, Merkel's other national coalition partner in Berlin, finished in fifth place with a disastrous 9.7 percent, less than half what they received in 2013 and their worst in the state since World War II.\nThe CSU has governed Bavaria, the prosperous southeastern state that is home to some 13 million of Germany's 82 million people, for more than six decades. Needing coalition partners to govern is itself a major setback for the party, which exists only in Bavaria and held an absolute majority in the state parliament for all but five of the past 56 years.\n\"Of course this isn't an easy day for the CSU,\" the state's governor, Markus Soeder, told supporters in Munich, adding that the party accepted the \"painful\" result \"with humility.\" Pointing to goings-on in Berlin, Soeder said, \"It's not so easy to uncouple yourself from the national trend completely.\"\nStill, he stressed that the CSU emerged as the state's strongest party with a mandate to form the next Bavarian government. He said his preference was for a center-right coalition. That would see the CSU partner with the Free Voters, a local conservative rival that made modest gains to win 11.6 percent.\nThe Greens, traditionally bitter opponents of the CSU with a more liberal approach to migration and an emphasis on environmental issues, are another possible partner. A pro-business party, the Free Democrats, scraped into the state legislature with 5.1 percent support but won't be needed to form a coalition.\nThe CSU has long leveraged its strength at the state level to punch above its weight in national politics. In Berlin, the party is one of three in Merkel's federal coalition government along with its conservative sister, Merkel's Christian Democratic Union, and the Social Democrats.\nThat government has been notable largely for internal squabbling since it took office in March. The CSU leader, Interior Minister Horst Seehofer, has often played a starring role. Back in Bavaria, a long-running CSU power struggle saw the 69-year-old Seehofer give up his job as state governor earlier this year to Soeder, a younger and sometimes bitter rival.\nSeehofer has sparred with Merkel about migration on and off since 2015, when he assailed her decision to leave Germany's borders open as refugees and others crossed the Balkans. They argued in June over whether to turn back small numbers of asylum-seekers at the German-Austrian border, briefly threatening to bring down the national government.\nThe interior minister also featured prominently in a coalition crisis last month over Germany's domestic intelligence chief, who was accused of playing down recent far-right violence against migrants.\nSeehofer has faced widespread speculation lately that a poor Bavarian result would cost him his job. He told ZDF television his party's election performance had causes in both Berlin and Munich. \"Of course, I as party leader bear a share of responsibility for this result,\" Seehofer said, adding that he was prepared to discuss consequences for Sunday's outcome, but not immediately.\nIt remains to be seen whether and how the Bavarian result will affect the national government's stability or Merkel's long-term future. Any aftershocks may be delayed because another state election is coming Oct. 28 in neighboring Hesse, where conservative Volker Bouffier is defending the 19-year hold of Merkel's CDU on the governor's office. Bouffier has criticized the CSU for diminishing people's trust in Germany's conservatives.\nThe CDU's general secretary, Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, said the party must show discipline and focus on Hesse. She acknowledged that the national government's woes have been unhelpful. \"It is totally undisputed that the way we have treated each other in the coalition, and also the way we argued with each other in the summer, was anything but inspiring for the state election in Bavaria,\" she said.\nGermany's governing parties punished in state election\nGerman state vote in Hesse tests Merkel's unhappy coalition\nThe Latest: German govt parties lose ground in state vote\nFar-right German lawmaker is severely beaten in Bremen",

        "raw_content": "Massive malaria study raises intriguing evolutionary questions\nIn a paper just published in Nature Genetics, the MalariaGEN Consortium reports a major study that set out to replicate the many findings of genetic associations with severe malaria that have been reported in the literature.\n\"In malaria it\u2019s often not possible to replicate findings, because of heterogeneity in host and parasite populations,\" says Professor Dominic Kwiatkowski of the University of Oxford and the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. \"We\u2019ve broken down that hurdle.\"\nThe consortial project 1 (CP1) study of genetic variants associated with cases of severe malaria integrated data from almost 30,000 participants across multiple locations in Africa, Asia and Oceania. This allowed insights into the evolutionary battle between the malaria parasite and human populations that could not have been achieved by smaller studies in each location.\nMalariaGEN partners collected samples from 11,890 children and adults with severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria \u2013 either cerebral malaria (coma) or anaemia or both \u2013 and 17,441 healthy controls matched with the cases by ethnic group.\nThe samples were collected in the course of individual studies in Burkina Faso, Cameroon, The Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Nigeria, Tanzania, Vietnam and Papua New Guinea.\n\u201cThis was a massive collective effort spanning nearly a decade. Hundreds of people from across our many study sites\u2014researchers, clinicians, field workers, ethicists and others\u2014worked together to build this unique data resource,\u201d says Dr Kirk Rockett, Research Manager at the University of Oxford and a founding member of the MalariaGEN Consortium.\nAll the research groups used a standardised method of describing the symptoms of the cases, and uploaded their data to a common system for analysis. \"We have developed new statistical tools that allows for the fact that you may not see the same thing at every site,\" says Kwiatkowski.\nSeveral genetic loci are already well known to be associated with resistance to severe malaria. Children who inherit one copy of the sickle cell mutation have a ten-fold reduction in their risk of severe malaria, which accounts for the high frequency of this mutation even though it causes serious illness in those who inherit it from both parents. Those who have the O blood group also enjoy significant protection.\nThe study confirmed these findings to a very high level of confidence, across all the locations in the study. \"That reassures us that our ability to capture real biological effects is very strong,\" says Kwiatkowski. In contrast, more than 20 previously reported associations could not be confirmed. Others appeared to have some influence at some locations but not others.\n\"The study is important because it has enabled us to evaluate studies that have been published so far,\" says Kwiatkowski. \"We have been able to distinguish genuine differences from differences due to different methodology or experimental error.\"\nThe study also revealed an intriguing and unexpected finding. Carriers of a single copy of the gene variant that causes a condition called G6PD deficiency had been thought to be protected in a similar fashion to sickle cell carriers. However, this study found that although G6PD carriers were protected against cerebral malaria, they were more likely to suffer from anaemia as a complication of malaria.\n\"Overall, G6PD is not providing strong protection,\" says Kwiatkowski. \"This very common human polymorphism turns out to have more complex effects than we supposed, in ways that we don\u2019t fully understand.\"\nIt is not obvious how a mutation with such contrasting effects might have emerged during human evolution. One possibility is that it became common as a result of \u2018balancing selection\u2019 by a different malaria parasite, Plasmodium vivax, which no longer exists in much of Africa. The mutation would then persist there merely as an evolutionary throwback.\n\"Life has got more interesting,\" says Kwiatkowski. \"In different places, the evolutionary battle between host and parasite has played out in different ways. And it\u2019s clear that in order to understand resistance, you need to amalgamate data from many places. Our study has provided a platform for the discovery of new loci associated with resistance to malaria.\"\nMalaria Genomic Epidemiology Network. Reappraisal of known malaria resistance loci in a large multicenter study. Nat Genet. 2014 Nov;46(11):1197-204. doi: 10.1038/ng.3107. Epub 2014 Sep 28.\nConsortial Project 1 (CP1)\nThis consortial project addresses the question of why, in regions where every individual is repeatedly exposed to malaria parasites, some people die from the infection while others survive. Each partner study has collected detailed clinical data and DNA from people with severe malaria, i.e. those who develop life-threatening clinical complications such as cerebral malaria and severe malarial anaemia.",

John was born May 15, 1948 at Barksdale Air Force Base in Shreveport, Louisiana. After graduating from Woodson High School in Fairfax, Virginia, John joined the United States Coast Guard. He was stationed in Galveston, TX where he met his future wife and love of his life, Carol Olivier. John and Carol married October 4, 1969 at St. Mary\u2019s Cathedral in Galveston. They later moved to Virginia where John graduated from the University of Maryland with a bachelor\u2019s degree in accounting and where their three children were born.\nJohn is preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Irene George, and his sister, Pauline Easby-Smith.\nHe is survived by his wife Carol George; daughters Christy Tucker and Cindy Engel; son John G. George, Jr. and wife Erika; eight wonderful grandchildren: Diego, Baylee, Mateo, Anabel, Ellie, John III, Jeffrey and Victoria; sisters Gail Childs and husband Rob and Denise George; brother-in-law, Edmond J. Olivier and wife Sissy; and sister-in-law, June Molina and husband, E.D. John is also survived by his best friends Judy Noel, John Dempsey and wife Mary Beth, and Kevit Bright and wife Jan, who John and Carol consider family.\nJohn loved spending time with his grandkids and always had a surprise lollipop in his pocket waiting for them. John was an avid golfer, scuba diver, race car driver, and spent many years traveling the country taking his son motocross racing and attending gymnastics and cheerleading competitions with his daughters. John was well respected by all and was always willing to lend a helping hand. John took organization to the next level and was known for having a first-class setup. At work, John\u2019s work ethic was unmatched and he never lost sight of his values. Colleagues knew John spoke from a position of fairness, and whether you agreed or not, you walked away respecting his position. The examples he set at home and at work will live on through his family and the many people he mentored through his long career in law firm management.\nJohn and Carol moved back to the island in 2014 where they felt most at home. They would have celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this fall. John\u2019s family was his greatest joy and his legacy will live on through his children and grandchildren.\nJohn\u2019s family will receive visitors beginning at 6:00 pm, Wednesday, February 13, at Malloy & Son Funeral Home. The playing of TAPS and a flag folding ceremony will begin at 8:00 pm.\nIn lieu of flowers the family requests that memorials be made to the Wounded Warrior Project or a cancer research foundation of your choice.\nMary Beth and John Dempsey posted on 2/13/19\nIn memory of John Gregory George, Mary Beth and John Dempsey lit a candle\nCarol our arms are around you in prayer and strength you lost the love of your life and best friend and we lost our best friend also.

Rest peacefully our dear friend!\nCarol our arms are around you with love!!! You not only lost the love of your life but your best friend as we did. We have so many memories of wonderful times and trips together and hanging out at each other\u2019s house! We will miss John terribly but we still have you. Rest peacefully our friend.\nJordan posted on 2/13/19\nI remember you telling me how beautiful I looked on my wedding day. I remember you and Carol being so proud of me on my graduation day. I remember getting my first James Avery bracelet (that i still have) from you and Carol. I remember you meeting every one of my children. I made sure i always came to see you at your office every time I went to the law firm. I remember all the jokes you told me growing up (and with a straight face so I would believe you)! I was so gullible and you took every opportunity you could to make me smile, laugh, and sometimes just to see the gears turning in my head as child haha. I remember you having a cigar all the time with my dad. I remember during Christmas telling me how John Jr. had broken mostly every bone in his body! I wish I was able to see you once more before the Lord took you home. I find it so amazing that you loved racing and passed it on to your son, and he passed it on to his kids as well as mine! I\u2019m so thankful for the time my family and I had with you Mr. John.\nPeter J Meister posted on 2/13/19\nJ0hn was a wonderful golfing companion.He had a gentle way of teaching and sharing his knowledge about the game.\nKev Bright posted on 2/13/19\nPlaying golf will never be the same without you my friend. It was nothing for us to play golf in temps over 100 degrees, play in the rain, snow or sleet. Heck, you\u2019re the only person I\u2019ve ever known to have been struck by lightning! Yet no matter the storm you still had NO fear and always wanted to putt out or finish 18 holes! And, by god we always did! What a blast we had, even getting kicked off of ColoVista.... ha ha thanks, junior! I already miss you pal.\nBill Roberts posted on 2/13/19\nWe had a memorable journey together for over 15 years at BMP and I greatly appreciate all John taught me, both professionally and especially before my wedding (\"always say 'Yes Dear'\"). I'm praying for you Carol, John Jr. and the rest of the family.\nAngela Serna posted on 2/13/19\nIn memory of John Gregory George, Angela Serna lit a candle\nRoy Eanes posted on 2/12/19\nFair winds and following seas sir.\nlisa molina posted on 2/12/19\nOne of my fondest memories is when Uncle John saved my life. I was around 7 years old and my family was visiting Virginia for the first time. I remember how excited I was, not just to see everyone but also because they had a pool. I couldn't change into my bathing suit fast enough once we arrived from the airport. I followed Christy to the pool. My dad and Uncle John were talking by the pool. She jumped off the diving board and I thought I would do the same. At the exact same moment, Uncle John asked if I could swim and my dad said, \u201cnope, not a lick\u201d. Uncle John jumped in immediately with clothes, shoes and all and saved me. Thank God I was fine and it became a story that we giggled about for many years. I love and miss you, Uncle John. You were taken from us way too soon.\nE.D. Molina posted on 2/12/19\nWhen we were younger John and I both bought sets of golf clubs because we wanted to start golfing. We took a lesson with a pro at the Munic Golf course in Galveston. The lesson didn't do much for my game. I eventually lost interest and stopped playing. John, on the other hand, took quickly to it and he became a really good player. You will be greatly missed brother in law.\nWandah Arnold posted on 2/12/19\nPlease accept my condolences on the passing of John. It was an honor to have known and work for him. May God embrace you in comfort during this difficult time.\nMarie Valentine posted on 2/11/19\nDear Carol, and family, our Deepest Sympathy on the loss of John. He was a wonderful man, and we know he will be missed by all who knew him. Our Prayers are with you, May John Rest in Peace. Sincerely, Marie and Skip Valentine\nJudy Noel posted on 2/11/19\nMy greatest memory of John was when he and Carol were living in an apartment off Ferry Rd. John had come to pick me up to go to their apartment and was in his pride and joy! He was known for drag racing and someone challenged him while we were on Seawall Blvd. He complied for a short while. When we got to the apartment and he told Carol he had raced while I was in the car, Carol had a small but controlled fit and told him he knew he was not to race while I was in the car. I could tell while he was driving that he was restraining himself from going to fast and I thoroughly enjoyed the \"ride\". It was awesome. I love you John and will miss you everyday! I know you are in heaven cracking jokes and serving the best drinks ever!!!\nPat and Jim Knight posted on 2/11/19\nCarol and family, we are very sorry for your loss. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.\nMark Waite posted on 2/11/19\nJohn will be missed by all of us who were lucky enough to work with him through the years. He was solid, steady, loyal and kind, regardless of the challenge the moment presented. Most importantly, he always took time to proudly share the latest on his family and to ask about your own. God Bless the George family in this difficult time.\nCynthia and Rick Joyce posted on 2/11/19\nA life well-lived. The positive impact John had on our lives and so many others can not be overstated. So grateful to have known him and thankful for his mentorship. He never steered me wrong and taught me to persevere through so many of life's challenges. He will be sadly missed by both of us. Our heartfelt condolences to Carol and the Family. We are so sorry for your loss.\nThe playing of TAPS and a flag folding ceremony will begin at 8:00 pm.\nTimeline for John Gregory George\nCondolences for John Gregory George",

You must give written notice to the HSE as soon as practicable before the construction phase of the project begins for certain project duration and personnel time on site.\nIt\u2019s your responsibility to have an up-to-date copy of the notice on display in the site\u2019s office. The copy needs to be accessible and understandable for anyone on the site to comprehend.\nFurther information is available on the HSE website or simply call us for more details.\nProvide Pre-Construction Information\nAs a developer you will have requirements and expectations that will assist those designing, constructing or using the structure or building. Sharing these at an early stage can help shape how each duty holder approaches, plans and accommodates your requirements.\nWhilst the initial client brief sets out your general requirements and expectations for the project, it is also important that it outlines your health and safety expectations. For example, you have the duty of providing construction information. such as an asbestos survey or structural drawings.\nMake suitable arrangements for managing the project\nAs the developer, you must make suitable arrangements to ensure that, throughout the planning, design and construction of a project, adequate consideration is given to the health, safety and welfare of all those affected and involved in the construction work.\nYour arrangements should be appropriate to the nature of the work and enable other duty holders to carry out their work without risk to themselves or anyone else who may be affected.\nSelect the project team and formally appoint duty holders\nIf more than one contractor will be working on your project then, as the client, you must appoint a principal designer and a principal contractor in writing. If you do not do this, then you take on these roles and associated legal duties yourself.\nOne of your main duties is to ensure that those you propose to appoint are able to demonstrate that they can deliver the project for you in a way that secures health and safety.\nCheck the principal designer is carrying out their duties\nAs the client, you are required to ensure that the arrangements made for managing health and safety during the pre-construction phase are working successfully.\nYou should also satisfy yourself that the principal designer is complying with their duties. Progress meetings provide a good way of ensuring the project runs in line with your expectations and meets legal requirements.\nEnsure preparation of construction phase plan\nYou must ensure that a construction phase plan for the project is prepared by the principal contractor before the construction phase begins.\nThis plan should outline the health and safety arrangements, site rules and specific measures concerning any work involving the particular risks listed in schedule 3 of CDM 2015.\nThe plan should be project-specific, take into account the pre-construction information provided, and its contents should be proportionate to the site risks.\nEnsure welfare facilities are in place\nYou must ensure suitable welfare facilities are provided on site.\nYou should check that they are in place from the very start of the site work by agreeing that welfare facilities are made available to those carrying out the work and by carrying out a site visit.\nThe facilities must be regularly cleaned and cater for the expected number of workers on site.\nEnsure the management arrangements are working\nAs the client, you are required to ensure that the arrangements made for managing health and safety during construction are working successfully.\nYou should also satisfy yourself that the principal contractor is complying with their duties. This may be carried out through face-to-face progress meetings or via written updates.\nEnsure preparation of health and safety file\nYou must ensure that the principal designer prepares a health and safety file for the project. The file contains the information needed to ensure the health and safety of anyone carrying out any future construction, demolition, cleaning or maintenance work on your building or structure.\nIt is also your duty to make sure that the principal designer passes the health and safety file to the principal contractor in order for it to be revised at any necessary point of the project.\nCheck completion and handover arrangements\nAs the project nears its end, you should check any arrangements made for its completion and handover.\nThis could include a phased handover, such as you taking partial possession of finished parts of the building and checking that agreed measures are in place to ensure the health of safety of those in the areas that have been handed over.\nThe consequences: Business, Moral & Legal\nAs well as the reputational damage associated with prosecution for a criminal offence, businesses face increased insurance premiums and the possibility that Notices to Improve will significantly delay project completion.\nThe moral responsibility for ensuring that all reasonable and practicable steps are taken to ensure a safe working environment has also be clearly placed on to you as the client.\nCDM 2015 increased the level of responsibility and accountability of construction projects into the client. Penalties include criminal prosecution and substantial fines.

        "raw_content": "General, malware, Privacy, Security\nI came across an article on some website that mentioned using a Linux LiveCD/USB for online banking. The idea at first glance seems good. But there are a few things to keep in mind.\nThe problem that the LiveCD/USB is trying to solve is that a lot of regular people who bank online use Windows on their computers. Attackers are able to steal credentials and compromise accounts using malware and botnets. Finding and cleaning malware from computers is easier said than done. Enter a Linux LiveCD/USB and Windows malware problems are bypassed.\nThe biggest problem with this solution is that the majority of users will not want to use a LiveCD/USB for various reasons:\nA lot of people cannot or do not want to use something new. And even with the popularity of Ubuntu and some other Linux distros, Linux is still something new to most people.\nEvery time you need to do online banking, the computer will need to be shut down and re-booted with the LiveCD/USB. If someone forgot to do something and wants to go back, the entire shutdown and re-boot sequence has to be repeated.\nSince nothing is saved when a LiveCD/USB is shut down, all the network connections have to be set up again. At least that is the case with the PCLinuxOS distro that I have used. Ubuntu or other distros may be able to self configure connections.\nWeb browsers that come with LiveCDs do not usually have the latest patches. So, every time you boot up with the LiveCD/USB, you will have to apply all the latest patches and updates. Otherwise, there is the risk of using an insecure web browser.\nSome of these problems can be taken care of with some modifications to the idea:\nUse a Virtual Machine (VM) that loads the Linux distro. VirtualBox and VMPlayer allow you to load a Linux instance directly from a LiveCD/USB. This will not require you to shut down your computer. Once the Linux instance is loaded, you can just use the web browser within the VM to do your online banking.\nYou can also get around the problem of re-booting Linux by just saving the VM\u2019s state. This way, you can apply patches and updates to the web browser and keep adding without having to apply the same patches and updates again and again. But the risk with this is that instead of leaving internet tracks in Windows, you will be doing it in Linux.\nPlease note that this or any other method will not prevent compromises resulting from carelessness and stupidity. If you click on links in every email, download email attachments or click on links to unfamiliar websites you need to be prepared for the worst.\nPoor online password practices\nNASA IT security vulnerability report",

        "raw_content": "Ask a Marian, August 2018\nA Friend of Mercy asked:\nFather, I have been suffering from a severe depression. I trust in Jesus and I am devoted to our Blessed Mother, but this depression will not lift. Does this mean I have to suffer for souls and in reparation for sin?\nThat is a good question. Without knowing the details of your case, I can't give an exact answer, but I can give a few guidelines for possible directions.\nFirst of all, depression can be a side-effect of spiritual suffering, but depression is not in and of itself spiritual. The \"dark night\" that St. John of the Cross describes, for instance, is a spiritual state of the soul being purified, which can have emotional effects. Often, a spiritual director or a psychologist can help distinguish between the two.\nSecondly, though prayer can help one through depression, depression itself is better treated as a psychological problem. That being said, prayer can help one remain \"above water\" amid the difficult emotions, and prayer is sometimes even used in certain forms of therapy. Christian psychologists can help immensely in integrating one's emotional and spiritual life. If this depression persists, I would recommend seeking a trusted psychologist who can help you understand depression from a Christian point of view.\nFinally, all pain and suffering can be offered up. Each Mass is a way to unite ourselves, including our joys and sorrows, to Christ's self-offering to the Father. In this way, all that we are, do, and suffer is united to who Christ is, what He did, and what He suffered. In this way, our suffering is redeemed. The proper question is not whether to offer it up in union with Him for the salvation of souls. Rather, the question is whether the Lord would be asking you to seek help from a psychologist to aid you in these bouts of depression. Since the Lord Himself often went about healing others of their afflictions, I think that it would be good to at least try to seek help. If the depression still persists, then it can be offered up in peace to the Lord, knowing that you have done all that you can do, and that our Lord and Blessed Mother are with you in this suffering.\nAnother Friend emailed:\nFather, I am having great trouble with one of my siblings. She is cheating my mother out of money, turning my mother against me, and mocking me for my Catholic faith. My mother's health is now failing, but I am being pushed farther away from her. I have suffered great psychological, emotional, and physical distress over this. Would I be forgiven if I walk away from them?\nYour question at the end is an important one: \"Would I be forgiven ...?\" We are, indeed, called to love our neighbors as Christ has loved us (see Jn 13:15; 1 Jn 4). However, this does not mean that we enable others to take advantage of us to their own detriment or our own. Though we are called to bear the burdens of others, we cannot do for them what they themselves have to do. Nor are we to love others so much that we neglect our own responsibilities in life.\nThe important thing here is to draw boundaries with your family. You do not need to judge them (i.e., judge their character as evil or bad), but rather to state simply to yourself and to them, \"You are doing X, and I feel Y. It would help me if we did Z. But if that does not happen, then I will do A.\" The key here is not to try to change them, but to change your own stance toward them. That is all you can do. You do have a right to protect yourself and your own well-being.\nThe important thing is to make sure that you don't completely close your heart to others. What I mean is this: Even if you cannot maintain contact with them, continue to pray for them and offer up some small sacrifice for them. The key here is not whether to love them, but rather what form that love takes.\nFor that, there is no need for forgiveness. Forgiveness is needed only when you act out of hatred or resentment to inflict pain on another out of revenge or hurt. By setting boundaries clearly and simply, you actually prevent hatred or resentment from becoming too much.\nTo set such boundaries, you will likely need support from others who can help you see the situation better and find the right ways to stay in His love even as you are firm. I pray that the Holy Spirit provides others for you who can help and assist you in this difficult period.",

        "raw_content": "Posted to Maritime Musings (byDennis Bryant) on October 4, 2013\nPossibly the largest single volcano on Earth\nIn the northwestern Pacific Ocean about 1,000 miles east of Japan lies the Shatsky Rise, an elevated portion of the seabed that covers an area the size of California. It was from the aircraft carrier USS Hornet that Doolittle\u2019s Raiders were launched on 18 April 1942 in waters above the Rise. Extensive research by a team led by William Sager, a marine geophysicist from the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Houston, has concluded that the massive structure near the center of the Rise is a single, extinct volcano. He has named the volcano \u201cTamu Massif\u201d. Tamu is an abbreviation for Texas A&M University, where Professor Sager was teaching when he began researching the structure in 1993. Massif is a French word meaning massive and is commonly used in reference to large mountains. The summit of the Tamu Massif is at a depth of 6,500 feet below the surface and the base on the seafloor is at a depth of 21,000 feet. It covers an area of more than 100,000 square miles, making it approximately the size of the British Isles. As such, it is approximately ten times larger than Mauna Loa, the next largest volcano on Earth and about half the size of Olympus Mons, the massive volcano on Mars that holds the current record as the largest volcano in the solar system. The basalt comprising Tamu Massif appears to be relatively uniform, indicating that it formed from one source, rather than from a number of eruptions from separate volcanos. It formed approximately 145 million years ago (during the Late Jurassic period), probably killing numerous plesiosaurs during its few million years of underwater eruptions, as well as polluting the atmosphere (without a permit). Professor Sager plans further expeditions to the area to measure the magnetic properties of the basalt.\nTags: organized DOT President Federal congress port Obama waterways subsidies Security crime council\nMarine Cargo Vessel Inspection Surveyors and Consultancy in Chile\nMarad: Domestic Shipyards Support $36 Billion in GDP",

        "raw_content": "Case Studies: People Who Have Filed Lawsuits\nSome lawsuits can feel a bit more personal than others. Almost everyone has a friend or family member who has been lied to or abused. However, these cases are much more troubling when a drug manufacturer is responsible for such abuse. These companies are supposed to be saving lives, yet some continually prioritize profits over the safety of their consumers.\nIf you or a loved one has fallen ill, gotten injured, or passed away as the result of consuming a prescription drug, you and your family deserve justice. Patients implicitly trust prescription drugs to heal them, and a negligent company putting lives at risk should be punished for their unconscionable behavior.\nThese types of drug lawsuits and settlements occur more often than you may think, and you\u2019d be surprised at how substantial they can be. There are hundreds of drugs that have been deemed unsafe in a court of law, and you may be entitled to compensation for the suffering of you or a loved one. Here is just a brief overview of notable drug lawsuits and settlements in the past several years:\nDrug maker Takeda Pharmaceuticals Co. created Actos to help control blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes patients. As of April 2016, more than 10,000 lawsuits have been filed against Takeda. The drug allegedly causes its patients to develop bladder cancer or other serious conditions after long-term usage. In April 2015, Takeda agreed to a $2.37 billion settlement, which is one of the largest pharmaceutical agreements in history. This compensation is now being split among those who have suffered due to Actos.\nVenlafaxine, a popular antidepressant also known as Effexor, works by affecting the balance of chemicals in the brain. The drug is manufactured by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals. Throughout much of the drug\u2019s existence, Wyeth marketed the drug as being \u201csafe for pregnant women\u201d despite knowing that this was not the case. In Aug. 2012, two families sued Wyeth in a Philadelphia court claiming that their babies suffered from birth defects due to Effexor. The results of this settlement were never disclosed, but a court of law found that Wyeth had chosen not to disclose clinical tests that linked the drug to birth defects.\nSeveral transvaginal mesh producers have been involved in a legal battle since about 2011 due to the physical and emotional dangers of the product. In a class action lawsuit, women who used a transvaginal mesh claimed that manufacturers \u201chad a legal duty to ensure the safety and effectiveness of their pelvic mesh products.\u201d Instead, they provided patients with \u201cfalse and misleading information.\u201d More than $1 billion has already been paid out to women who used a transvaginal mesh, including: Debora Barba ($100 million verdict), Martha Salazar ($73.4 million verdict), and Colleen Perry ($5.7 million verdict).\nThese are just a few of the most notable dangerous drugs that have been involved in lawsuits, but dozens of companies continue to pay out millions of dollars to consumers each year. If you or a loved one has suffered due to prescription drugs in the Huntsville, Alabama, area, find a trusted attorney that will take a personal interest in your case and fight for you every step of the way.

You\u2019ll study the beliefs, practices, and behaviors of the major world religions, with a focus on Christianity, its sacred texts, and theology. You\u2019ll also examine the spiritual impact of religion on individuals and community in the past and in the present.\nYou\u2019ll have significant freedom to form your program in the direction of your interest. You can choose a more general analysis of the world religions or you can make a more intensive study of Christianity with electives.\nWhy a B.A. Degree in Religious Studies?\nWith a bachelor\u2019s degree in Religious Studies, you\u2019ll explore the world\u2019s major religions in all their diversity and be prepared for a career in any field that involves differing communities of belief. Whether you\u2019re interested in a future in Christian ministry or are looking to broaden your view of humanity\u2019s spiritual beliefs and practices, this degree program will enhance your perspective of the world\u2019s cultures and religions.\nAbout the Religious Studies Major\nHoused within the Division of Humanities, the B.A. in Religious Studies gives you the flexibility to shape your study in the direction of your interests. Choose between a general analysis of world religions or a more intensive study of Christianity with courses in Christian history, ethics, and theology. Students also have the opportunity to focus on the intersection of religion and culture with classes such as religion and gender, religion and race, and religion and literature.\nA minor in Religious Studies is also available.\nUnique independent studies, special topics courses, and internships allow you to pursue your own interests in religion.\nRelated student clubs and campus events introduce you to a diverse faith community.\nImmersion trips give you the opportunity to experience another culture firsthand by staying with locals and experiencing their lives as they are lived.\nCoursework provides a broad basis for further study and a career helping others.\nReligious Studies majors often go on to seminary studies, graduate school, and/or a career in Christian ministry. They also find employment in social services or any profession that values critical thinking and sensitivity to human motivation.\nOur students have been accepted into graduate programs at:\nAquinas School of Theology\nChandler School of Theology\n\"The greatest strength of McKendree\u2019s Religious Studies program is its diversity. I not only learned about different faith traditions, but I also had the opportunity to experience them. The small class sizes made it easy to engage in meaningful and thought-provoking conversations, and the broad scope of the classes provided a foundation for future coursework as well as knowledge base for my work in children\u2019s and youth ministry.\u201d\n~ Sarah (Haas) Aryan \u201908, Director of Religious Education and Youth Ministry at Corpus Christi Catholic Church of Shiloh, IL\n\u201cWhen I began attending McKendree, I had no intention of double majoring in English and Religious Studies. One class with Dr. Olson opened my eyes to the possibilities of a Religious Studies major complementing my interests. The professors created a positive atmosphere in the classroom that allowed students from all faith traditions to participate in discussion. In a time when religion is creating a wedge in society, people with knowledge of and a passion for interfaith cooperation is important.\u201d\n~ Elizabeth Gershon \u201812\n\u201cStudying religion is often seen as a simple task, but McKendree\u2019s Religious Studies program offers insight into the cultural power of religion. What does it mean when we say someone is Hindu or a Quaker? How do those beliefs impact social life through politics, environmentalism, and issues on gender and sexuality? McKendree provided the tools and space to think about these varied spheres of influence and their mutual mingling, revealing how religion is deeply pervasive.\u201d\n~ Michael Anderson '12, Ph.D. Candidate at Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, CA\n\u201cAt McKendree, I fell in love with the religion and speech communication classes and professors. My religious studies classes allowed me to build a foundation in theology that I could build upon while in seminary, and they challenged me to be a better writer and speaker. McKendree morphed me into the person I am today not only as a licensed pastor, but also as a community-focused person of faith.\u201d\n~ Erin Totten '11, Pastor of the United Methodist Church in Sunfield, IL\nInteresting Courses\nReligion and Concern for the Natural Environment\nJesus in the Gospels and in the Movies\nNature Writing and Nature Spirituality\nCenter for Faith & Spirituality - Join other students at weekly chapel services, Bible studies, Catholic Mass, and other special events.

On one hand, statistical measures such as time on site, click-through rate and bounce rate can help publishers assess the health of their sites. On the other hand, some publishers become overly focused and dependent on metrics, and they forget that behind those metrics are individual readers.\nWhy Digital Advertising Is Anything But 'Creative'\nby Paolo Gaudiano on Oct 9, 3:20 PM\nSeveral years ago, when people really cared about Windows vs. Mac OS, I heard a joke that went something like this: \"If cars were designed by Microsoft, we would constantly have to stop to reboot them.\" Today, I am compelled to make a different joke: \"If our highways were designed by advertisers, billboards would jump in the middle of the highway whenever we tried to drive by.\"\nThe Most Important Person In Online Publishing\nWho is the most important person in online publishing?

        "raw_content": "Many seniors save money on their healthcare expenses by getting the right insurance coverage plan for those expenses. They spend time comparing insurance plans to ensure that they get the most suitable plan for their needs. If you want to save money as well, then we suggest that you compare Medicare Advantage plans for 2019.\nYou won\u2019t find a standard Advantage plan. While many of them will be similar or even the same, there are lots of different ones. Finding the right one is a matter of spending the time, sourcing quotes, comparing coverage and ensuring that you get the kind of coverage you need. That\u2019s not an easy task always, and it takes some work, but putting in that effort can really pay off. Many people save hundreds of dollars a year just by choosing one Advantage plan over another. They can save on the cost of the plan itself as well as on their overall healthcare expenses.\nWhat Advantage Plans Cover\nWhile there isn\u2019t a standard Advantage plan, there is basic coverage that all Advantage plans share. This is their starting coverage, and more coverage can be added on at the discretion of the insurance companies selling them.\nYou should be aware that 2019 Advantage plans are sold by private insurance providers and cannot be purchased from Medicare. While Medicare will oversee these plans, it will not sell them to you.\nThe basic coverage, however, includes cover for all of the Original Medicare plan. You may already know what that entails, but it is Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B. Together they make up the Original Medicare plan. However, Advantage plans don\u2019t stop there. They also cover, in their most basic form, medical services that are considered emergency care and urgently needed care. That takes care of lots of your emergency room costs and life-saving treatment, which is incredibly useful to have covered. These expenses can be quite costly, and they aren\u2019t covered much under the basic Medicare plan.\nThe Advantage plans are your way to get coverage for Original Medicare through another provider. If you want a better rate on the plan and you want more coverage than what it offers, then this is the way to go.\nWe mentioned that many instance companies add coverage on top of that standard over, though. This can include cover for checkups, such as for your vision or your hearing or just general wellness. They also often include cover for prescription apparatus, such as eye wear and hearing aids.\nAnother common item of coverage for Medicare Advantage plans is cover for Medicare Part D. That includes cover for lots of different prescription drug costs. It may or may not cover the prescription drugs you need, but it should cover a lot of common drugs. Part D plans differ from one insurance provider to the next, offering slightly diffident takes on prescription drug coverage. So if the first one you look at doesn\u2019t cover you well, then you can always keep looking until you find one that does.\nYou can buy Part D separately, if you like, and if it is not included in your Advantage plan. You won\u2019t be able to double up on coverage, though.\nBefore you compare, you need to know what you are looking for. Advantage plans are often called Medicare Part C, as they are considered a part of Medicare.\nWhen you compare the Advantage coverage plans, you should be looking at how their coverage differs from one another. Some of them will be high coverage plans, taking care of all that we talked about Advantage plans being able to cover. Other will only cover the basics, but they can never cover you for anything less than Original Medicare as well as for urgently needed and emergency medical care. They have to at least include that coverage.\nYou have to decide how much coverage you want, and that will help you better compare Medicare Advantage plans for 2019. These plans come with differing levels of of coverage, and they are sold by lots of different insurance companies. You won\u2019t know which one is right for you and who you should be buying it from until you figure out what you need from an Advantage plan or if you even do need one. Not everyone has to be covered by Advantage plans, after all, since they are really designed for people who need lots of coverage.\nWhen comparing the coverage on these plans, be sure that you are comparing current coverage. The plans can change over time. The basic coverage may not change for a long time. Only Medicare gets to change that. It will let you and other Medicare subscribers know about changes that are coming down the line long before they take effect. But you can look into the other coverage that can be changed before you sign up for any Advantage plan. In order to find the best plan and the one that suits you better than all the rest, you have to know how the coverage on all the available plans compares.\nYou\u2019ll want to look at the cost of the plans as well as the coverage. After all, it doesn\u2019t make much sense to compare how much the plans provide for you unless you look at how much that coverage costs you. You could benefit from a certain amount of coverage, but if you can\u2019t afford it, then you shouldn\u2019t sign up for the plan.\nYou need to get a plan that\u2019s affordable. Not only that, you want to make sure that you are paying as little as possible for the right coverage. You can find lots of Medicare Advantage plans for different prices with the same coverage. But in order to do that, you will need to source a lot of quotes and find out how much is being charged for the plans you are interested in.\nAs with the coverage, make sure your information is accurate and up to date. If you are going by old quotes, you won\u2019t get relevant information. So, if you spend a long time going through the search for quotes for different plans, then you may end up with out-of-date information. Keep checking the quotes to ensure you get current pricing information.\nMaking the Most of Your Comparison\nIt\u2019s really important that you take time to compare the Advantage plans. You don\u2019t want to end up paying more than you have to for the coverage they are offering. You also don\u2019t want to miss out on some coverage that you could be using to save money. In the end, it all comes down to saving as much money as you possibly can. If your insurance plan isn\u2019t saving you money over some other plan or over paying for the expenses yourself, then you need to change up your plan or drop it entirely.\nIf you aren\u2019t sure what kind of medical expenses you should be trying to find coverage for, or you don\u2019t know how much you should be spending on coverage, then you may want to talk to your doctor or to your insurance agent. They can help you better understand what kind of expenses you might accrue over the year, and they can tell you what plans might be right for you or what kind of coverage is ideal in your situation.\nWhen you compare Medicare Advantage plans for 2019, you have the potential to save quite a bit of money. It\u2019s up to you how much effort you want to put into searching out quotes and comparing coverage to find the right plan, but that effort will be worth it when you are saving money every month on healthcare expenses.",

        "raw_content": "Cardiac arrest risk in runners low, but incidence has increased over past decade\nMedWire News: Cardiac arrest occurs primarily among male marathon runners and has become more common over the past decade, US researchers have found.\nHowever, overall, marathons and half-marathons are associated with a low risk for cardiac arrest and sudden death, report Jonathan Kim (Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts) and colleagues in The New England Journal of Medicine.\nThey assessed the incidence and outcomes of cardiac arrest associated with marathon (26.2 miles) and half-marathon (13.1 miles) races in the USA between January 2000 and May 2010.\nThey interviewed survivors (patients who were successfully resuscitated and subsequently discharged from hospital) and the next of kin of nonsurvivors (patients who were not successfully resuscitated or died before hospital discharge), reviewed medical records, and analyzed postmortem data to determine the clinical characteristics of the arrests.\nOf 10.9 million runners, 59 experienced a cardiac arrest, corresponding to an incidence rate of 0.54 per 100,000 participants. The incidence was significantly higher among marathon runners, at 1.01 per 100,000, than half-marathon runners, at 0.27 per 100,000.\nIt was also significantly higher among men, at 0.90 per 100,000 than among women, at 0.16 per 100,000.\nIn addition, male marathon runners had a higher incidence of cardiac arrest from 2005 through 2010 at 2.03 per 100,000 participants, than from 2000 through 2004, at 0.71 per 100,000 participants.\nOf the 31 runners for whom complete clinical data were obtained, 23 died. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and possible hypertrophic cardiomyopathy were the most common causes of death, accounting for eight and seven of 23 deaths, respectively.\nAmong the eight runners who survived, ischemic heart disease was the predominant cause of cardiac arrest and accounted for five of the cases.\nThe strongest predictors for survival after cardiac arrest were initiation of bystander-administered CPR and an underlying diagnosis other than hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.\nMultivariate analysis excluding these two factors showed that an initial cardiac rhythm of ventricular fibrillation or tachycardia and the number of previous long-distance running races completed were independently associated with survival after cardiac arrest, at respective odds ratios of 0.040 and 0.533.\n\"We calculated that the incidence rates of cardiac arrest and sudden cardiac death during long-distance running races were 1 per 184,000 and 1 per 259,000 participants, respectively,\" write the authors.\nThey say that this corresponds to 0.2 cardiac arrests and 0.14 sudden deaths per 100,000 runner-hours at risk, demonstrating that the incidence of cardiac arrest among marathon and half-marathon runners is relatively low compared with other athletes, including collegiate and triathlon participants as well as previously healthy middle-aged joggers.\n\"Clinicians evaluating potential race participants should be aware of the risks of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and atherosclerotic disease in this patient population,\" conclude Kim et al.\nPhysiology rotated-square",

        "title": "Logistically Speaking: Hiring Top Talent is a Supply Chain Game-Change | Material Handling and Logistics (MHL News)",
        "raw_content": "Logistically Speaking: Hiring Top Talent is a Supply Chain Game-Changer\nIf you want to transform your supply chain, make sure that process is in the hands of your best people.\nDave Blanchard | Nov 11, 2013\nFifty is a nice, round number, and while 50 years may be just a blink in God's eye, it's still a significant period of time\u2014significant enough, at least, that the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) was in a positively commemorative mood at its annual conference last month in Denver. Yes, the CSCMP has been around for 50 years, beginning life in 1963 as the National Council of Physical Distribution Management; the trade association became the Council of Logistics Management in 1985, and then settled on its current identity as the CSCMP in 2004. So congratulations to CSCMP, with whom Material Handling & Logistics (which has had a few name changes of its own over the years) has enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship.\nIn a fittingly reflective spirit, one of the key sessions at CSCMP 2013 looked at \"Game-Changing Trends in Supply Chain.\" Ted Stank and John Bell of the University of Tennessee, presented an update on a study originally done at the turn of the 21st century, revealing how much had changed in supply chain thinking since 2000. \"Many of the supply chain trends that were prevalent in 2000 are still with us,\" Stank notes, \"but the responses to them are dramatically more sophisticated.\"\nBased on a survey of 163 supply chain professionals from large and mid-sized companies (mostly manufacturers and retailers), the 2013 UT study focuses on how technology, metrics and collaboration have helped reshape how the world views supply chain management. Wall Street, for instance, recognizes now that \"supply chain excellence is the key to creating shareholder value,\" Bell points out. And why not? As Bell explains, the supply chain \"controls all of the inventory; manages 60-70% of the cost' and provides the foundation to generate revenue by providing outstanding availability.\"\nA notable difference in supply chain thinking since 2000 has occurred as companies shift from a functional focus to a cross-functional process integration. As Bell explains, the number one wish-list item for supply chain professionals these days is to work for an organization where the functional silo walls have come down, particularly the wall between purchasing and logistics. That's no surprise, since the entire premise of supply chain management is centered on coordinating the plan, source, make, deliver, return and enable processes, both inside and outside a company's four walls. So it's no wonder that supply chain people would be frustrated by activities that run counter to achieving that level of integration.\nOne trend that has not so much changed as it's intensified over the years is training supply chain talent. \"Hiring and training the best talent is the number one requirement for transforming a supply chain,\" Stank emphasizes. Traditional training, he explains, has evolved into knowledge-based learning, which \"encompasses holistic cross-functional thinking and orients employees in a way to improve overall organizational performance.\"\nPretty heady stuff, and Stank acknowledges that finding these types of employees requires a game-changing shift in hiring strategies. It's important, he says, that companies focus on attracting supply chain talent that is competent in the areas of global orientation, leadership skills, technical savvy and superior business skills. The business skills are particularly important, Stank points out, since \"a deeper understanding of total costs are needed to achieve the desired level of efficiency.\"\nFinally, Bell summarized some emerging supply chain trends that were barely on the radar, if considered at all, back in 2000:\n\u2022 the effect of regulations on driver shortages;\n\u2022 transportation congestion, aging infrastructure and the effects of urbanization;\n\u2022 climate-induced supply chain disruptions,\n\u2022 demand increases,\n\u2022 resource scarcity,\n\u2022 delivery in new geographic locations.\n\"Tightening capacity and increasing transportation rates,\" Bell says, \"underscore the increased importance of carrier partnerships and driver productivity.\" Negative implications of these capacity issues, which have become all too common in recent years, could lead to such dire consequences as the potential inability of some shippers to get their freight moved, increased levels of inventory and decreased service levels.\nUltimately, it all comes down to talent, and it's as true now as it was 50 years ago. Having smart, capable people in key positions of responsibility managing your supply chain is the most impactful game-changing trend of them all.\nTAGS: Salary Survey",

        "raw_content": "Implementation of \u200bthe 7 LTAD Stages\nLTAD Stages from http://canadiansportforlife.ca/learn-about-canadian-sport-life/ltad-stages A clear path to better sport, greater health, and higher achievement.Children, youth and adults need to do the right things at the right time to develop in their sport or activity \u2013 whether they want to be hockey players, dancers, figure skaters or gymnasts. Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) describes the things athletes need to be doing at specific ages and stages.Science, research and decades of experience all point to the same thing: kids and adults will get active, stay active, and even reach the greatest heights of sport achievement if they do the right things at the right times. This is the logic behind the Long-Term Athlete Development model (LTAD).\nThere are seven stages within the basic LTAD model:\nStage 1: Active Start (0-6 years)\nStage 2: FUNdamentals (girls 6-8, boys 6-9)\nStage 3: Learn to Train (girls 8-11, boys 9-12)\nStage 4: Train to Train (girls 11-15, boys 12-16)\nStage 5: Train to Compete (girls 15-21, boys 16-23)\nStage 6: Train to Win (girls 18+, boys 19+)\nStage 7: Active for Life (any age participant)\n\u200bStages 1, 2 and 3 develop physical literacy before puberty so children have the basic skills to be active for life. Physical literacy also provides the foundation for those who choose to pursue elite training in one sport or activity after age 12.\nStages 4, 5 and 6 provide elite training for those who want to specialize in one sport and compete at the highest level, maximizing the physical, mental and emotional development of each athlete.\nStage 7 is about staying Active for Life through lifelong participation in competitive or recreational sport or physical activity.\nThroughout the seven stages, LTAD supports training, competition, and recovery programs based on developmental age \u2014 the physical, mental and emotional maturation of the individual \u2014 rather than chronological age. It is athlete-centered in that it is designed to serve the best interests of each athlete\u2019s long-term development, encouraging growth in skills and achievement while ensuring each individual remains engaged in sport.\nThe Latest Science\nLTAD combines the best research in today\u2019s sport science with the best practices in coaching and training from around the world. These important research concepts and best practices have been codified into the 10 Key Factors of LTAD.\nFixing Past Failures\nLTAD has been developed for a reason. Many traditional approaches to sport in Canada have served to reduce participation numbers, led to poor results, and even caused injury. LTAD is designed to maintain participation, increase results, and protect our athletes.\nLTAD is also driven by serious concerns for the health of all Canadians. Trends over the past two decades have been towards less physical activity and sport participation, and we are starting to see serious negative consequences through rising rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and increased risk of heart and stroke disease. LTAD aims to mitigate these trends by promoting lifelong engagement in physical activity and sport.\nLTAD is for Everyone\nLTAD is for all Canadians, not just elite athletes and the young. It is cradle to grave in scope, and it is also inclusive of athletes with disabilities. It provides a route for athletes and participants of all levels of ability and disability to develop from playground to Olympic podium, and it also allows individuals to choose their own training and competition goals at all points in between.\nLong-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) is based on sport research, coaching best practices, and scientific principles. LTAD expresses these principles, research, and practices as 10 Key Factors essential to athlete development. To optimize the development of our athletes, we need to take advantage of the best sport science and best practices in coaching and training. Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) does this by codifying important elements of sport science and coaching practices into the 10 Key Factors of LTAD:\nMental, Cognitive and Emotional Development\nSystem Alignment and Integration\nContinuous Improvement - Kaizen\nAlong with sport science and coaching, the 10 Key Factors include broader principles behind the way we organize and manage sport. For example, competition scheduling to optimize athlete development, organizational alignment of different groups and agencies that make up the \u201csport system\u201d, and the philosophy of Continuous Improvement so we always work to make our science, coaching, and system of athlete development better.\nPhysical Education, Coaching, and Sports have always been a huge influence in my life.\nSports and recreation have been major factors in shaping my life. I have been playing competitive sport since I was 10. I believe that sports are very influential and help individuals develop and grow in a positive manner. Students can learn important life skills in the context of sports and recreation such as healthy living, teamwork, perseverance, and the love of physical activity. I am very passionate about helping children learn and develop through sport. I want all children to experience the joy, the love of the game, the dedication and commitment, the pride of improvement and success.\nI want students to build self-esteem, positive relationships, team-work abilities, and attitudes that will help them develop into successful life long learners.\nRingette has taken me all around the world. I represented Team USA in 2 World Championships (Tampera, Finland and NothBay, Ontario). I played for Wam! in the National Ringette League; we were the Canadian National Champions in 2010 and 2011. I coached U19 Team USA in the U19 World Ringette Championships. I was also able to secure a job for Ringette Aberta where I was responsible for organizing and developing the Alberta Ringette Winter Games Program. During that time, we implemented the Long Term Athlete Development Plan. I was able to work my way up and become Site Manager for the National Ringette School, where I created curriculum and supervised on-ice instructors. I was in charge of managing the other instructor and solving any problems that might come up throughout the different camps. Ringette afforded me the opportunity to be the best that I could be!\nBecause of my physical fitness, on-ice skills, leadership, and team-play, I was awarded a scholarship to play hockey at Red Deer College, where I received Rookie of the Year for the Queens.\nRugby was another important force in my life. I started in High School and played Senior Womens' Rugby for St. Albert. I played on the U-19 Alberta team where I was scouted for the U-19 National Team and continued onto the Senior Womens' Program. Once in Post-Secondary, I was able to transfer to U of A where I became a member of the Panda's Rugby team. I was awarded Rookie of the Year, MVP, and All-Canadian. Throughout my time with the Pandas, I was able to develop into a National-level Rugby player. I represented my country in a tour through England and the USA. I have experience coaching junior-high and high school rugby. As a Youth Development Officer, I taught a rugby unit in physical education classes in schools.\nPhysical Education, Teaching, and Sports Academy\nI have a Combined Degree in Physical Education from the University of Alberta, with a major in Phys. Ed and a minor in Special Education. During my practicum, I taught at the Bellerose Sports Academy as a Coordinator and Hockey Coach. My dream job is to teach in a Sports Academy! I was also a pre-k to grade 6 Physical Education Teacher for two years in St. Albert. I was responsible for organizing the elementary district track meet 2 years in a row. I also got to organize all the school wide outdoor activities.\nSnowshoe TIME!! Elementary Phys-Ed.\nMulti-Sports for Fun, Exercise, and Learning\nI also enjoy sports at a recreational and social level. Everything from BMX-biking and long-boarding to soccer and ball- hockey. I participated in the Red Bull Crashed Ice Event in Quebec City. I have coached volleyball, badminton, and track for St. Mary's this year. If I could help students to experience even just a small amount of the joy I have in my lifetime around Sports, my teaching dreams would be fulfilled.\nLearning through sport is the biggest passion of mine and is something that I want to pursue further as a teacher.\nJournals for Physical Education\nActive & Healthy Magazine: \"Aimed at physical educators, health educators, fitness leaders and the generalist teacher.

        "raw_content": "Johnny Cueto of the Giants named National League Player of the Week\nStarting pitcher Johnny Cueto of the San Francisco Giants has been named National League Player of the Week for the period ending May 29th. The announcement was made earlier today on MLB Network.\nCueto was tied for the Major League lead in wins last week, going 2-0 over two starts, while posting a 0.60 ERA (1 ER/15.0 IP). That mark was the fourth-lowest among qualifying NL hurlers. No Major League pitcher with two starts or more than 8.0 innings of work last week had a lower ERA. The veteran right-hander's 15.0 innings of work last week were the second-most in the Majors. He fanned 11 while walking only two in that span.\nOn Monday, May 23rd, Cueto tossed a complete-game shutout in a 1-0 victory over the San Diego Padres. The 30-year-old allowed just two hits and recorded six strikeouts en route to his second shutout of the season and eighth of his career, stretching his scoreless innings streak to 16.0 (dating back to May 18th). On Sunday, Cueto ran the streak to 17.2 innings before allowing a home run to Colorado shortstop Trevor Story in the second inning of an eventual 8-3 victory over the Rockies. Cueto fanned five in the start, and the solo shot would be the only earned run allowed by Cueto in the contest. With the victory, the Dominican-born hurler improved to 8-1 this season. His eight wins are currently tied for fourth in the Majors, while his 2.31 ERA (11 ER/81.2 IP) is the ninth-lowest among qualifying pitchers. This is his second career weekly award (also: August 4-10, 2014) and first as a member of the Giants, with whom he signed as a free agent in December.\nOther noteworthy performances last week included Cincinnati's Adam Duvall (.286, 3 HR, 9 RBI, .762 SLG); Colorado's Carlos Gonzalez (.483, 8 R, 14 H, 3 HR, 5 RBI, .862 SLG, .483 OBP); Miami's Marcell Ozuna (.536, 8 R, 15 H, 2 HR, 5 RBI, .857 SLG, .594 OBP); Chase Utley (.350, 6 R, 2 HR, 9 RBI, .700 SLG) and Clayton Kershaw (1-0, 1.08 ERA, 17 SO, 16.2 IP) of the Los Angeles Dodgers; Ben Zobrist (.500, 6 R, 12 H, HR, 6 RBI, .750 SLG) of the Chicago Cubs; and Washington's Stephen Strasburg (2-0, 2.13 ERA, 15 SO, 12.2 IP).\nIn recognition of his National League Player of the Week Award, Johnny Cueto will be awarded a watch courtesy of Game Time, the leader in licensed sports watches, available at MLB.com.",

        "raw_content": "Books \u00bb Literature for Children \u00bb Storyteller\nStoryteller by Edward Myers\nFirst published by Clarion Books as a hardcover, this acclaimed children\u2019s fantasy novel tells the tale of Jack Storyteller. Farm boy Jack has always hoped that life is more than just planting and harvesting. As he sets off to seek his fortune, Storyteller relates his many adventures and narrow escapes. Jack\u2019s stories\u2014and those of the people he meets\u2014interweave to create a brilliant tapestry. In addition, the novel also tells the stories of the colorful characters Jack meets along the way, among them a talking bird, a one-eyed robber, a melancholy princess, and a mysterious illusionist. All of these tales, along with a frame story, will capture and entrance the reader's imagination. Edward Myers\u2019s Storyteller explores the power (both for good and for evil) of the stories in our lives.\nA Rainy Day, a Cottage, a Fire on the Hearth . . .\nSitting close together in rough-hewn wooden chairs, an old man and his grandchild watch the embers glow, listen to the rain tap at the windows, and find solace in this warm, dry place and in each other\u2019s company. Breakfast dishes clutter a nearby table. A kettle of cider hangs from a hook over the fire, where it simmers almost inaudibly. A shiny black bird dozes on a perch not far from the replace. An old woman, seated at a large loom near the back wall, weaves cloth and sings softly to herself.\n\u201cA perfect morning for a story,\u201d says the old man. \u201cDon\u2019t you agree?\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s fine,\u201d answers his grandchild.\n\u201cMeaning\u2014you\u2019d like to hear one?\u201d\nThere\u2019s a brief, not altogether comfortable pause, as if they should discuss the matter but neglect to do so. Then the old man begins: \u201cOnce upon a time\u2014\u201d\n\u201cPlease don\u2019t start like that,\u201d the grandchild interrupts.\n\u201cI beg your pardon?\u201d The old man isn\u2019t offended so much as puzzled.\n\u201cI\u2019m tired of stories starting that way,\u201d the child explains. \u201cCan\u2019t you start some other way?\u201d\n\u201cYes, of course,\u201d says the grandfather. \u201cI know many ways to start a story. How about this: Once, long ago\u2014\u201d\n\u201cGood. I like that much better.\u201d\n\u201cVery well, then.\u201d He pauses and starts over. \u201cOnce, long ago, a magic frog\u2014\u201d\n\u201cNo magic frogs,\u201d the grandchild says abruptly.\n\u201cPardon me?\u201d asks the old man.\n\u201cI\u2019d rather not hear a story about a magic frog.\u201d\n\u201cNo? You\u2019ve always liked them in the past.\u201d\n\u201cToday I\u2019d like a different kind of story\u2014one I\u2019ve never heard before.\u201d\n\u201cAll right,\u201d the old man responds. \u201cHow about a story in which a witch\u2014\u201d\n\u201cI\u2019m tired of witches.\u201d\n\u201cHmm . . . Fair enough. So perhaps a story about a dragon\u2014\u201d\n\u201cNo dragons, either. I\u2019m really sick of dragons.\u201d Now the old man grows perplexed. \u201cNo magic frogs, no witches, no dragons. Well, I have to admit that rather complicates my task.\u201d He sighs and falls silent for a moment. At last he says, \u201cI\u2019m afraid you\u2019ve ruled out most of the stories I can tell you.\u201d\n\u201cDon\u2019t you know any others?\u201d\n\u201cI know a thousand stories, maybe more, but none seems likely to please you. You\u2019ve stopped me from telling every story I\u2019ve started. Is it possible that you won\u2019t like any of them? Is it even possible that you consider yourself too old for my stories?\u201d\n\u201cNo, I like your stories,\u201d the grandchild states firmly, \u201cbut I want one that\u2019s\u2014that\u2019s new.\u201d\n\u201cAh, one that\u2019s new. I see. That clarifies the situation. All right, how about this one: a story about a storyteller.\u201d\n\u201cA storyteller?\u201d\n\u201cWell, I\u2019ve never told it to you\u2014or to anyone else, for that matter\u2014so in that sense it\u2019s new. And it\u2019s a story that\u2019s close to my heart. Closer than you can imagine.\u201d\n\u201cAll right, I\u2019ll do just that.\u201d\nLong ago\u2014but not so long as you might imagine\u2014a storyteller earned his bread by telling stories. He told stories to farmers and villagers; to children and grownups; to beggars, traders, sailors, and warriors; to kings and queens. The storyteller told his stories. The people listened. And for the gift of amusing them, the people paid him\u2014with eggs or apples if they were poor, with a candle or a pair of wool mittens if they were better off, with gold or jewels if they were rich. By this means the storyteller made his way through life and through the world.\nYet the payments he gained weren\u2019t the sole reason for his telling stories. The storyteller did more than just ply his wares\u2014as if words were simply goods to sell! No, he told his stories for the love of storytelling. Just as a weaver delights in the click and clack of the shuttle shooting back and forth across the loom and thrills at the sight of the tapestry growing long and wide before him, so too did this storyteller enjoy weaving the tales he told. The storyteller loved telling stories, and the people loved hearing them.\nSo he told stories about demons, ghosts, and witches. He told stories about an old woman who lived in a cottage shaped like a bird\u2019s nest. He told stories about a one-eyed robber and his buried treasure. He told stories about a bird who fell hopelessly in love with a fish. He told stories about a princess who battled an evil king using no weapons other than the songs she sang. He told stories\u2014\nBut I\u2019m getting ahead of myself. The storyteller did everything I\u2019ve told you, but not during his early years. Like anyone else, he went through a long apprenticeship before practicing his trade. He had to learn the stories, how to shape them, how to tell them. He had to learn how to please his listeners\u2014when to amuse them, when to surprise them, when to frighten or perplex them. So, like any other story, the story of this storyteller must begin at the beginning, and that\u2019s where I\u2019ll start.\nHis name was Jack. That\u2019s an ordinary name, one that fit him well, for Jack was indeed an ordinary boy. He grew up in an ordinary family and lived in an ordinary village, Yorrow by name, in the Realm of Sundar. There Jack did what countless children had done for as long as anyone could remember: he helped his parents run their farm, he played during the brief times when he wasn\u2019t working, he collapsed in exhaustion each night, and he awoke the next day ready to start all over again.\nIn appearance, too, he was ordinary. He stood about the same height as most boys his age. His facial features were pleasant without seeming handsome. A thatch of brown hair roofed his head. His eyes were brown as well. Indeed, Jack looked much like any other country boy in Sundar.\nHe behaved well and worked hard to help his family. He had to. Life was difficult throughout the Realm, and dangerous. Every family provided for its own needs, since failing to do so meant hardship, hunger, even starvation. Not only the adults but all the children, too, labored to plow the soil, plant the crops, herd the goats, feed the hens, gather the eggs, weed the garden, carry the water, mow the hay, harvest the crops, shear the sheep, spin the wool, weave the cloth, sew the clothes, and do whatever else needed to be done. Jack did his part, just like everyone else.\nYet something about him wasn\u2019t ordinary: his stories. For even during his earliest years, when Jack had just barely begun to talk, he told stories.\nWhat kind of stories, you ask?\nWell, you can\u2019t expect much from a child who\u2019s barely old enough to say his own name. But I\u2019ll tell you this much: Jack\u2019s first full spoken phrase was \u201cOnce upon a time . . .\u201d\nThe truth, however, is that even Jack\u2019s kind, loving parents had little use for his stories. All that mattered was surviving the latest hardships. A storytelling boy was a luxury that no one viewed with patience, much less delight. Yet as he grew older, Jack couldn\u2019t ignore his own stories. They came to him unbidden. They whispered to him in the night. They accumulated in his head. They crowded out his other thoughts. Jack\u2019s mind became a hive buzzing with stories.\n\u201cOnce upon a time,\u201d seven-year-old Jack told his sister Gwynne as she lay ill one autumn, \u201ca girl named Gwynne caught a quail in a trap she\u2019d set. But the quail cried out, \u2018Please! Set me free and I\u2019ll protect you for the rest of your days. You\u2019ll never be sick, for my magic feathers will heal you.\u2019 And the quail plucked a feather from his wing and gave it to Gwynne.\u201d\n\u201cOnce upon a time,\u201d eight-year-old Jack told his brother Alfred, when Alfred fell into the well and floated, cold and frightened, far below in the water while Gwynne ran off to get help\u2014\u201cOnce upon a time, Alfred fell into a well and waited for someone to come and pull him out. And while he was down there, Alfred heard a voice say, \u2018You! What are you doing in my well?\u2019 Terrified, Alfred stammered, \u2018W-w-who\u2019s there?\u2019 \u2018I am,\u2019 said the voice. \u2018I am Samantha, the water sprite who lives in this well.\u2019 \u2018Are you a good sprite?\u2019 Alfred asked nervously. \u2018Or an evil one?\u2019 Samantha replied, \u2018Oh, very good, and I\u2019m here to help you. I\u2019ll teach you a song that will keep you warm until your rescuers arrive.\u2019\u201d\n\u201cOnce upon a time,\u201d nine-year-old Jack told Father following Grandmother Hilda\u2019s death, \u201ca woman named Hilda got sick, died, and left her son, Edmund, lonely and sad. So after the burial Edmund planted an oak tree over Hilda\u2019s grave. And the roots grew downward and hugged Hilda. And the tree pulled Hilda into itself and grew big and strong, so that Hilda was the tree and the tree was Hilda, with great limbs reaching outward toward everyone and everything. And Edmund often climbed the tree and rested among the branches, and in that way he never lacked for an embrace.\u201d\nWhere did these stories come from? Jack didn\u2019t know. What did they accomplish? He didn\u2019t know that, either. By the time he was ten years old, he had only just begun to explore his storytelling skill; he didn\u2019t understand it yet. All he knew was that the stories welled up from somewhere deep within, and they demanded his attention until he released them into the world\nPraise for Storyteller\nThe cast of magnificently varied and multidimensional characters includes a viciously greedy king, an evil illusionist, a princess who feels trapped by her royal position and a brilliant, talking bird who is hopelessly in love with a fish. The stories Jack tells along the way . . . act as clever devices that provide insight into the nature of power, love, good and evil. Myers . . . also deftly and subtly explores and illuminates the writer\u2019s craft and the very basis of story and the power of storytelling. Marvelous.\nCharacters are colorful and memorable.\nSchool Library Journal (starred)\n[This] story has the timeless appeal of adventure, humor, and light romance, all woven together by an able teller of tales.\nStoryteller has been added to your shopping cart.",

Staff and franchisees are encouraged to show support by making a voluntary contribution from each pay packet or loan settled and by volunteering time at RMHC events across the country.\nIn addition, regular fundraising morning and afternoon teas will be held and the annual Mortgage Choice National Conference will feature a fundraising night where all proceeds go to RMHC.\nMalcolm Coutts OAM, CEO for RMHC said, \"As many as 270 families will sleep at a Ronald McDonald House tonight, as more than 6,000 do each year. Childhood illness can have a devastating effect. With fear and uncertainty come the practicalities of managing the family when the child is away in hospital.\"\n\"In a country as big as Australia, specialist care may be a long way from home and many families simply can't afford to stay in hotels while their children receive treatment, which is often extended periods of time. Further, the child's illness often affects much more than their health - it can stop them going to school.\n\"We help thousands when they need it most but the demand on our programs is growing. To meet the needs of seriously ill children and their families, we are expanding significantly, so financial support is always greatly needed and appreciated.\n\"Mortgage Choice is a strong fit for us. We are looking forward to a corporate partnership that delivers real substance for our charity and the Australian families who rely on us to help keep them stronger, together.\"\nFor information about Mortgage Choice call 13 MORTGAGE or visit Facebook.com/MortgageChoiceor Twitter.com/MortgageChoice.\nFor more information about Ronald McDonald House Charities call 1300 307 642 or visit rmhc.org.au or Facebook.com/RMHCAustralia.",

        "raw_content": "4 powerful ways you can help migrant children seeking asylum\nIt's an image now seared into the minds of many American mothers: Two young children wearing only diapers and t-shirts running from a plume of tear gas at the U.S.-Mexico border.\nWhat started as a peaceful protest by Central American asylum seekers waiting in Mexico escalated when some migrants broke off from the group and headed for the border fence, Reuters reports. Then, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency fired tear gas into the crowd.\nA photographer captured the moment when a woman grabbed the diaper-clad children and ran, trying to lead them away from a chemical weapon that can cause severe pain.\nAs parents, so many of us can relate to that woman. We want to protect our children from pain. And many Americans also want to protect children seeking asylum, too.\nNBC News on Instagram: \u201cA #migrant family, part of a caravan of thousands traveling from #CentralAmerica en route to the #UnitedStates, runs away from tear gas in\u2026\u201d\nWe can help protect children like the ones in this photograph because we have a weapon, too: Our voices.\nHere are four powerful ways to help children seeking asylum at the border.\n1. Contact your representatives\nCall, email or DM your reps and let them know you are not okay with the American government using tear gas on migrants seeking asylum. As the Washington Post reports, the U.S. is among the many countries that do not use tear gas on the battlefield. If it cannot be used against soldiers, certainly it should not be used against children.\nYou can find your rep's phone number at house.gov/representatives, and if you don't know who your rep is, you can look that up there, too. You can also call the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 to reach your senators or congressperson.\n2. Encourage others to contact their reps, too\nkristen bell on Instagram: \u201cHeres something I'm gonna take 5 mins to do tomorrow because its important. I hope you'll join me. It's easier to look away, but I always\u2026\u201d\nCelebrities like Kristen Bell and Busy Philips are making their own calls, and using their social platforms to encourage others to do the same. Even if you don't have as many followers as they do, you can spread the word about how to engage with the government on this issue.\n3. Volunteer your legal expertise\nThe Al Otro Lado Legal Observer Emergency Border Response is looking for \"attorneys, law students, and other legal workers who are able to travel to Tijuana starting November 15, 2018.\" The organization expects a constant need for attorneys and others who can help vulnerable asylum seekers over the next few months and is taking applications through a Google form.\n4. Keep talking about these kids\nAs parents, we can understand wanting to protect a child from pain. And many times, that drive is why families leave their homes to seek asylum in the first place.\nIn a recent letter to the editor for the New York Times, Dr. Sural Shah, \"a pediatrician who provides forensic evaluations for asylum-seekers,\" explains that after hearing the stories of families who have risked everything to make it to America, she agrees with American Academy of Pediatrics' president Fernando Stein, who in 2017 wrote: \"Children do not immigrate, they flee. They are coming to the U.S. seeking safe haven in our country and they need our compassion and assistance.\"\nOne of the most important things we can do to protect these children is remind the world that they are children. And they need protection.\nTo teach children empathy, you need to model it, mama\nWomen (and mothers) made history in the midterms \ud83d\udc4f\nNew mama Eva Longoria 'cannot imagine' being separated from her son\nasylum seeking children mexico tear gas migrant caravan",

        "title": "How the US Military Keeps Reporters in the Dark \u2013 Mother Jones",
        "raw_content": "How the US Military Keeps Reporters in the Dark\nThose inquiring about secret bases and other operations are met with everything from ignored questions to airport detentions\nNick TurseJuly 8, 2013 6:09 PM\n<a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Al_Udeid_Air_Base.jpg\">US Air Force</a>/Wikimedia Commons\nThere are hundreds, possibly thousands of US personnel\u2014the military refuses to say how many\u2014stationed in the ochre-tinted country of Qatar. Out in the searing heat of the desert, they fly fighter jets or fix them. They equip and arm troops headed to war. Some work in a high-tech command-and-control center overseeing US air operations in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and elsewhere in the Greater Middle East. Yet I found myself sitting in a hotel room in Doha, Qatar\u2019s capital, about 30 miles east of al-Udeid Air Base, the main US installation in the country, unable to see, let alone talk, to any of them.\nIn mid-May, weeks before my arrival in Qatar, I sent a request to the public affairs office at the base to arrange a visit with the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing, the unit that, according to the military, carries out a \u201ccriti\u00adcal combat mission that spans nearly 6,000 miles from the Horn of Africa to Northern Afghanistan.\u201d Or at least I tried to. Day or night, weekday or weekend, the website refused to deliver my message. Finally, I dug up an alternate email address and sent in my request. Days passed with no word, without even an acknowledgement. I followed up yet again and finally received a reply\u2014and then it began.\nThe initial response came on May 28th from the Media Operations Chief at Air Forces Central Command Public Affairs. She told me that I needed to contact the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing\u2019s Public Affairs liaison, Captain Angela Webb, directly. So I repeatedly wrote to Captain Webb. No response. On June 10th, I received an email from Susan Harrington. She was, she told me, \u201ctaking over\u201d for Captain Webb. Unfortunately, she added, it was now far too close to my arrival in Qatar to arrange a visit. \u201cDue to time constraints,\u201d she wrote me, \u201cI do not think it will be possible to support this request since we are likely already within that 30 day window.\u201d\nDon\u2019t think I was surprised. By now, I\u2019m used to it. Whether I\u2019m trying to figure out what the US military is doing in Latin America or Africa, Afghanistan or Qatar, the response is remarkably uniform \u2014 obstruction and obfuscation, hurdles and hindrances. In short, the good old-fashioned military runaround. I had hoped to take a walk around al-Udeid Air Base, perhaps get a glimpse of the jumbotron-sized screens and rows of computers in its Combined Air and Space Operations Center. I wanted to learn how the drawdown in Afghanistan was affecting life on the base.\nInstead, I ended up sitting in the climate-controlled comfort of my hotel room, staring at a cloudless sky, typing these words behind double-paned glass that shielded me from the 106 degree heat outside. For my trouble, on my return to the United States, I was detained at Kennedy Airport in New York by agents of the Department of Homeland Security. Their question for me: Was I planning to fight against US forces in Afghanistan?\nBase Desires in Africa\nIf you are an American citizen, you\u2019re really not supposed to know about operations at al-Udeid Air Base. The men and women there on your dime can\u2019t even \u201cmention the base name or host nation name in any unsecured communications.\u201d Instead, they\u2019re instructed to say that they are at an \u201cundisclosed location in Southwest Asia\u201d instead of \u201cthe Deid,\u201d as they call it.\nIt isn\u2019t the only base that the Pentagon wants to keep in the shadows. You\u2019re also not supposed to know how many bases the US military currently has in Africa. I learned that the hard way. As a start, let me say that, officially speaking, there is only a single US facility on the entire continent that the military formally calls a \u201cbase\u201d: Camp Lemonnier in Djibouti, a tiny nation in the Horn of Africa. US Africa Command (AFRICOM) is adamant about this and takes great pains to emphasize it. Internally, however, they do admit that they also have forward operating sites (aka \u201cenduring locations\u201d), contingency security locations (which troops periodically rotate in and out of), and contingency locations (which are used only during ongoing operations). But don\u2019t try to get an official list of these or even a simple count\u2014unless you\u2019re ready for the old-fashioned runaround.\nIn May 2012, I made the mistake of requesting a list of all facilities used by the US military in Africa broken down by country. Nicole Dalrymple of AFRICOM\u2019s Public Affairs Office told me the command would look into it and would be in touch. I never heard from her again. In June, Pat Barnes, AFRICOM\u2019s Public Affairs liaison at the Pentagon, shot down my request, admitting only that the US military had a \u201ca small and temporary presence of personnel\u201d at \u201cseveral locations in Africa.\u201d Due to \u201cforce protection\u201d issues, he assured me, he could not tell me \u201cwhere our folks are located and what facilities they use.\u201d\nThat July, with sparing assistance from AFRICOM, I published an article on \u201cSecret Wars, Secret Bases, and the Pentagon\u2019s \u2018New Spice Route\u2019 in Africa,\u201d in which I attempted to shed light on a growing US military presence on that continent. This included a previously ignored logistics network set up to service US military operations, with critical nodes in Manda Bay, Garissa, and Mombasa in Kenya; Kampala and Entebbe in Uganda; Bangui and Djema in the Central African Republic; Nzara in South Sudan; and Dire Dawa in Ethiopia. I also drew attention to posts, airports, and other facilities used by Americans in Arba Minch in Ethiopia, Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso, and the Seychelles Islands in the Indian Ocean.\nUS Africa Command took great exception to this. Colonel Tom Davis, their director of public affairs, wrote a detailed, irritated response. I replied to him and once the dust had settled, I asked him for, among other information, a full listing of what he called \u201ctemporary facilities\u201d as well as all other outposts, camps, warehouses, supply depots, and anything else that might be used by US personnel in Africa. He ignored my request. I followed up. Four days later, AFRICOM spokesman Eric Elliott emailed to say Colonel Davis was on leave, but added, \u201cLet me see what I can give you in response to your request for a complete list of facilities. There will [be] some limits on the details we can provide because of the scope of the request.\u201d\nWere there ever!\nThat was August 2012. For months, I heard nothing. Not an apology for the wait, not a request for more time. A follow-up in late October was ignored. A note in early November was finally answered by still another AFRICOM spokesman, Lieutenant Commander Dave Hecht, who said he was now on the case and would get back to me with an update by the end of the week. You won\u2019t be shocked to learn that the weekend came and went without a word. I sent another follow up. On November 16th, Hecht finally responded: \u201cAll questions now have answers. I just need the boss to review before I can release. I hope to have them to you by mid next week.\u201d\nTake a guess what happened next. Nada. Further emails went unanswered. It was December before Hecht replied: \u201cAll questions have been answered but are still being reviewed for release. Hopefully this week I can send everything your way.\u201d\nIn January 2013, answers to some other questions of mine finally arrived, but nothing on my request for information on US bases. By now, Hecht, too, had disappeared and I was passed off to AFRICOM\u2019s chief of media engagement, Benjamin Benson. When I asked about the ignored questions, he responded that my request \u201cexceed[ed] the scope of this command\u2019s activities, and of what we are resourced to research and provide under the Public Affairs program.\u201d I should instead file a request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). In other words, I should begin what was guaranteed to be another endlessly drawn-out process.\nI was, shall we say, irritated. Somehow, it had taken six months to get me nothing and send me elsewhere\u2014and somehow neither Colonel Davis, nor Eric Elliott, nor Dave Hecht had realized this. I said as much to Benson. He wrote back: \u201cLastly, you state, \u2018I\u2019ve been led astray for the better part of a year and intend to write about it\u2019, which of course is your right to do in our free society. We expect that as a professional, you convey the correct facts, and ask that you note that we did research, and provide answers to the questions you posed.\u201d\nWell, here you go, Ben. Duly noted. But of course, the \u201ccorrect facts\u201d are that neither Benson nor anyone else at AFRICOM ever provided answers to the crucial basing questions I posed. And Benson continues not to provide them to this very day.\nWhen we last spoke by telephone, several weeks ago, I reiterated that I understood he couldn\u2019t offer me a list of the locations of American bases in Africa due to \u201csecurity of operations,\u201d so all I now wanted was a simple count of facilities in Africa. \u201cThat\u2019s tricky. We have teams coming in and out of Africa to different locations all the time,\u201d he replied. \u201cPlaces that they might be, the range of possible locations can get really big, but can provide a really skewed image of where we are\u2026 versus other places where we have ongoing operations. So, in terms of providing number, I\u2019d be at a loss of how to quantify this.\u201d\nIt seemed easy enough to me: just count them and include the necessary disclaimers. So I asked if AFRICOM kept a count of where its troops were located. They did. So what was the problem? He launched into a monologue about the difficulty of ascertaining just what truly constituted \u201ca location\u201d and then told me: \u201cWe don\u2019t have a way that we really count locations.\u201d\nIt couldn\u2019t have been clearer by then. They had a count of all locations, but couldn\u2019t count them. They had lists of where all US troops in Africa were based, but not a list of bases. It was a classic runaround in action.\nAnd don\u2019t think that was the worst of it. The most dismissive response I\u2019ve gotten recently from anyone whose salary we pay to keep us (nominally) informed about the US military came from Marco Villalobos, the FOIA manager of US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM), responsible for Central America and South America.\nLast year, reports surfaced of civilians killed during operations conducted or overseen by US personnel in Honduras. In at least one instance, the Honduran Air Force shot down a civilian plane thanks in part, it seems, to intelligence provided by SOUTHCOM. Since the US military is heavily involved in operations across Latin America, I requested records relating to civilian casualties resulting from all operations in the region.\nThat was in July 2012. In February 2013, I got a peculiar response from Villalobos, one I\u2019ve never seen otherwise in hundreds of replies to FOIA requests that I\u2019ve ever received from various government agencies. He didn\u2019t say there were no such records. He didn\u2019t tell me that I had contacted the wrong agency or bureau. Instead, he directed me to the United Nations Statistics Division for the relevant data.\nThe trouble is, the U.N. Statistics Division (UNSD) doesn\u2019t collate US military data nor is it devoted to tracking civilian casualties. Instead it provides breakdowns of big datasets, like the Food and Agriculture Organization\u2019s figures on how many hectares of apricots were harvested in Afghanistan in 2007 (3,400) or the prevalence rate of contraceptive use for women ages 15 to 49 in Uganda in 2005 (19.7%).\nI was surprised to say the least. And I wasn\u2019t alone. When I checked in with the U.N., the Statistics Division wrote back: \u201ccould you please forward us the email you received from SOUTHCOM in which they suggest UNSD as a source, so we can contact them if they continue to give our address out in response to such inquiries which don\u2019t pertain to our work.\u201d\nSo I called Villalobos to complain. It wasn\u2019t his fault, he quickly assured me. The decision had been made, he claimed, by the director of personnel. I asked for his name, but Villalobos refused to give it: \u201cHe\u2019s not a public person.\u201d\nThat\u2019s the nature of the runaround. Months later, you find yourself back in the same informational cul-de-sac. And when it comes to the US military, it happens again and again and again. I had a similar experience trying to embed with US units in Afghanistan. I was rebuffed repeatedly for reasons that seemed spurious to me. As a result, however, a never-used Afghan visa for that trip sits unstamped in my passport\u2014which brings me back to my recent trip to Qatar.\nThe American Taliban?\nIn the airport upon returning to the United States, I was singled out by a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agent. He directed me to a \u201cgirl\u201d at a far counter. When I got there, I was admonished by her for being in the wrong place. Finally, I was sent to see a third CBP officer at a different workstation. Think of it as the runaround before the runaround.\nThis agent proceeded to question me about the contents of my bag, pulled out my papers and began reading them. She also wanted to know about my profession. I said I was a writer. What did I write about? National security issues, I told her. She asked what I thought about national security and the role of the US military in the world. In my estimation, I said, it tended to result in unforeseen consequences. \u201cLike what?\u201d she asked. So I described my most recent article on blowback from US military efforts in Africa.\nDid I write books?\n\u201cI do,\u201d I replied.\n\u201cThe latest one is called Kill Anything That Moves.\u201d\n\u201cKill what?\u201d\n\u201cKill Anything That Moves.\u201d\nShe turned to her computer, promptly Googled the book, went to the Amazon page, and began scrolling through the customer reviews. She asked if my book was, as the page said, a New York Times bestseller. I assured her it was. After a short while, she told me to stay put and disappeared into a back room with my personal papers\u2014writings, notes, reading materials. When she returned, she told me that she couldn\u2019t conduct the rest of my \u201cexamination\u201d in public. She would have to bring me \u201cback.\u201d I asked if there was a problem. No. Could I have my papers back? The answer was again no.\nI was soon deposited in \u201cArea 23\u201d of New York\u2019s John F. Kennedy International Airport and I was definitely the odd one out. Not that there weren\u2019t plenty of other people there. The Muslim man in the taqiyah. Three women in head scarves. Another wearing a niqab. Everyone\u2019s skin color was at least several shades darker than mine.\nI waited for a while, taking notes, before my name was called by an Officer Mott. The badge on his shirt made that clear, but he spelled it out for me anyway. \u201cIt seems like you\u2019re taking notes on everything, so I might as well get that out of the way,\u201d Mott said visibly perturbed, especially when I asked for his full name. \u201cI\u2019m not giving you my first name,\u201d he said with palpable disgust.\nLike the previous CBP agent, he also asked about my writing interests. I told him it mostly centered on US foreign policy.\n\u201cAre you for or against it?\u201d\n\u201cAm I for foreign policy?\u201d I asked.\n\u201cWell, I\u2019m reading that your last book is Kill Anything That Moves. That was about what?\u201d\n\u201cWhat about the Vietnam War?\u201d\n\u201cCivilian casualties.\u201d\n\u201cSensitive topic,\u201d he said.\n\u201cEspecially for the Vietnamese,\u201d I replied.\n\u201cWell, in this day and age with the whole war going on, that\u2019s a sensitive issue you\u2019re writing about\u2026 Do you get any heat or problems writing about war and civilian casualties?\u201d\n\u201cIt comes with the territory,\u201d I told him.\nAs he typed away at his computer, I asked why I was singled out. \u201cI think because some of the material you have is of interest\u2026 What you\u2019re writing, traveling with.\u201d I asked how they would know what was in my bag before I was detained. \u201cWhy the officer stopped you is beyond me, but what the officer discovered is something of interest, especially for national security\u2026 It\u2019s not every day you see someone traveling with information like this.\u201d\nIt was probably true. The contents of my bag were splayed out before us. The most prominent and substantive document was \u201cQatar: Background and US Relations,\u201d a report prepared last year by the US Congressional Research Service.\nAgent Mott rifled through my papers, tapped at his keyboard some more, breathed in deeply and then launched into a series of questions designed to make sure, he told me, that nothing \u201cjeopardizes our national security.\u201d\n\u201cHow long have you been writing about wars and things like that?\u201d\nHe did a double take, looked at my passport, and typed feverishly. \u201cI thought you were younger,\u201d he told me. I took it as a compliment. He wanted to know if I\u2019d traveled anywhere in the last five years as he flipped through my passport, filled as it is with visas and entry and exit stamps from around the world. The answer was obviously yes. \u201cPakistan? Afghanistan?\u201d he asked.\nImmediately, I thought of the unused Afghan visa in my passport and started to explain. After instructing me to get a visa, the US military had strung me along for months before deciding I couldn\u2019t embed with certain units I requested, I told him.\n\u201cDoing journalistic stuff, not fighting with them or anything like that?\u201d\nFighting? Was I really being accused of heading to Afghanistan to join the Taliban? Or maybe plotting to launch an insider attack? Was I really being questioned about this on the basis of having an Afghan visa and writing about national security issues? \u201cNope. I\u2019m a writer,\u201d I told him. \u201cI cover the US military, so I was going to cover the US military.\u201d\nAgent Mott seemed satisfied enough. He finished his questions and sent me on my way.\nThe next morning, I checked my email, and found a message waiting for me. It was from the Media Embed Chief in Afghanistan. \u201cYou are receiving this email because in the past you have been an embed with ISAF [International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan] or requested an embed,\u201d it read. \u201cYour opinion and satisfaction are important to us.\u201d\n\u201cYou can\u2019t make this shit up,\u201d an old editor of mine was fond of saying when truth\u2014as it so often does\u2014proves stranger than fiction. This sequence of events certainly qualified. I could hardly believe my eyes, but there it was: a link to a questionnaire about how well served I was by my (nonexistent) 2012 embed in Afghanistan. Question number six asked: \u201cDuring your embed(s) did you get the information and stories you require? If no please state why.\u201d\nNick Turse is the managing editor of TomDispatch.com and a fellow at the Nation Institute.

This differs from the superannuation KiwiSaver plan to which New Zealand employers only contribute 2% of your pay if the employee himself contributes from his pay.\nFind out more about Australian Super here http://www.australiansuper.com/ and more about KiwiSaver and withdrawing funds from KiwiSaver here http://www.kiwisaver.govt.nz/already/get-money/early/moving/.\nPaying bills in Australia is made safe and easy with BPAY.

        "raw_content": "Clifton Springs to celebrate history\nBy Laurel Wemett Daily Messenger freelancer\nThe first Musuem Day Celebration on June 16 will take visitors back in time\nCLIFTON SPRINGS \u2014 In the 19th and early 20th centuries, people came to Clifton Springs from far and wide to rest, relax, and bathe in its highly sulphured water.\nThe village has retained the historic character of that earlier era while adapting to changing times. On Saturday, June 16, the first Museum Day Celebration will raise awareness of the village\u2019s unique history by offering a full day of family-friendly activities to celebrate its past. There will be lots of refreshments available beginning with a pancake breakfast at 8 a.m. at the United Methodist Church.\nMuch of the Museum Day Celebration will take place inside, on the front porch or the lawn of the Foster Cottage Museum on Main Street. The structure was built in 1854 by Dr. Henry Foster (1821-1901) who was attracted to the village by its highly sulphured water and its use in healing.\n\u201cWe have the gem of the village in the Foster Cottage Museum in the heart of the Clifton Springs Historical District on Main Street,\u201d said Cathy McGrath, president of the Clifton Springs Historical Society Board of Trustees. \u201cThe building itself is unique, with its large and gracious front porch, Victorian decorations, rusticated wood siding, and lovely staircase banister.\u201d\nInside there are seven display rooms of intriguing artifacts telling the story of the village. The museum\u2019s collection contains more than 4,000 artifacts, documents, digital and paper photograph files.\n\u201cAncestors are a big part of our history,\u201d said Village Historian Jim Conners, who came up with the idea of getting people involved in a Museum Day Celebration. He encourages people to find their relatives by watching a PowerPoint presentation at the museum of The Cliftonian and Midlakes yearbooks, dated from 1924 to 2017.\nThis first-time event also aims to gain financial support for the museum. Gift baskets and gift cards from local merchants will be raffled.\n\u201cWe are also kicking off a fund drive,\u201d said McGrath.\nDonations made to the Foster Cottage Museum through Dec. 31 will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to a total of $3,000 by G. W. Lisk Company.\nPhoto tours and plein air artists\nFor anyone who loves to shoot photographs, Museum Day offers two guided walking tours along quiet, tree-lined streets lined with Victorian-era buildings.\nWhile strolling through the shady parks, tourgoers will see structures where people once sampled the famed mineral waters or gathered for outdoor concerts.\nSwans continue to glide along Sulphur Brook as they have for 150 years. Storefronts in the Foster Block, still protected by a covered walkway, will be admired along with the imposing red brick sanitarium on Main Street, formerly the center of the Clifton Springs Water Cure, and now the Spa Apartments.\nWalking tour participants can also visit the Tiffany \u201cLast Supper\u201d mosaic inside the Spa Apartments Chapel as tours are offered twice during the day.\n\u201cI shoot for fun,\u201d said Bob Snyder, leader of the 11 a.m. tour. He has photographed special events like weddings but now concentrates on family trips.\n\u201cGrandchildren provide excellent subjects,\u201d added the Clifton Springs resident.\nLocally, he has shot Clifton Springs Memorial Day parades, the Festival of Lights, and the Sulfur Springs parade, among other events. Snyder has taught photography classes for the Midlakes Community Education program and the Phelps Arts Center and exhibits with the Finger Lakes Photography Guild, a collaboration of photographers.\nHe said he is looking forward to \u201chaving fun and sharing picture-taking ideas with the group.\u201d\nThere are no age restrictions to participate with the exception that very young children must be accompanied by an adult.\nAnother village resident, Barry Lee, leads the 2 p.m. tour. He shoots weddings, portraits, and automobiles on a part-time basis. His interests include different types of photography like night sky and low light, landscapes, and seascapes.\n\u201cI have recently photographed rose-breasted grosbeaks, orioles, and a scarlet tanager,\u201d said the Cliftonian who often takes photos on the Ontario Pathways. Lee taught gravure and flexographic printing technology at Rochester Institute of Technology for 19 years.\n\u201cI have not yet determined what route I will be taking on the tour but I am planning on sharing technical information about photography with all who attend and hopefully giving a few pointers to improve the photographs of attendees,\u201d Lee said. \u201cAnd my experience has been I will also learn some things from the group.\u201d\nThe photographers will likely encounter artists painting plein air, or outdoors, during Museum Day.\nThe Pop-up Artists of the Finger Lakes, a group of artists painting in and around the Finger Lakes region, will be setting up their easels throughout the village.\nCathy McGrath, whose ancestors settled in Clifton Springs in the 1850s to 1880s, will offer her musical talents to Museum Day.\n\u201cWe will perform 19th-century historic American songs, doing a short set of songs every half hour,\u201d said McGrath. \u201cI play guitar, banjo, flute, penny whistle and limberjack dancing dolls. I will play historic American folk music and invite people to play along with me on folk instruments such as washboard, tambourine and wooden spoons.\u201d\nFellow Historical Society member Dr. Les Moore will join her on mandolin.\n\u201cWe plan on having loads of fun,\u201d said McGrath, who describes herself as a folk musician who has played music all her life and is active in four bands. \u201cYou can find me at the concert series that my friends Allen Hopkins, Jim Clare and I run twice a month at the Clifton Springs Library called Tunes by the Tracks.\u201d\n\u201cWe have stilts, hoops and sticks, and three-legged race materials,\u201d said Mary Lee Mueller of MORS, or the Midlakes One-Room Schoolhouse. The group will entertain children outside the museum.\n\u201cThose things are very popular with the youngsters at the schoolhouse (on the Midlakes campus),\u201d Mueller said.\nAn indoor scavenger hunt and coloring sheets are also planned.\n8-11 a.m.: Pancake breakfast sponsored by and benefiting Boy Scouts Pack 69, United Methodist Church; Meet Bill Peterson on church lawn sharing his 54 years of scouting.\n9 a.m.-5 p.m.: Foster Museum open house: PowerPoints, scavenger hunt, \u201cClifton Springs Through the Years\u201d with historian Jim Conners.

        "title": "Hitler and the Third Reich Tour - Munich City Tours",
        "raw_content": "Just six decades ago, Munich bore the official title, \"Hauptstadt der Bewegung\" - the Capital of the Nazi Movement. This was the city that the Allied Supreme Commander General Eisenhower called \"the cradle of the Nazi beast\".\nMunich was the birthplace of the Nazi Party and the home of its headquarters. The voice of Adolf Hitler resounded around the public squares and streets of Munich before being heard anywhere else in Germany. As the stage upon which some of the Nazis' most notorious crimes, from Hitler's failed Putsch to the horrific Kristallnacht - the largest anti-Semitic pogrom seen in western Europe for centuries and a dismal milestone on the road to the Holocaust - were launched, Munich was the nursery of a movement that would shake humanity with some of the most infamous and terrible events in history.\nIn a unique and fascinating tour, the guide will open up this hidden history for you.\nYou'll see the beer-halls which hosted the first small gatherings of the fanatics who one day would lead the Third Reich, and the places where Hitler made his first major speeches.\nYou'll walk through the streets where Hitler and his Brownshirts fought their way to power, and learn how they did it.\nYou'll see the official Nazi Headquarters from where he bullied the world.\nYou'll see buildings that bear the scars of the Second World War.\nThe irony is that while much of central Munich was devastated by Allied bombing, many Nazi buildings survived and still stand today. And standing alongside them are memorials to the city's many victims of Nazism, including those who sacrificed their lives in opposing its hateful ideology.\nYou'll see all these sites and hear their story. Nowhere else can you experience a tour like this because no other place has a history quite like this.\n1st April - 15th October: daily at 3:00 pm\n16th October - 31st March: daily at at 11:30 am\n\" Third reich tour \"\nOur guide Dan made this tour very interesting and vivid by making a combination of telling us of historic events and sentiments that lead to the building of the third reich. Not only by stories and locations, but also pictures and personal stories from his family. Anyone interested in this subject should follow this tour!\n\" Excellent tour guide \"\nThe tour gave a clear and interesting account of Hitler's rise to power.\n\" Great tour \"\nWe did this tour on our first morning in Munich. Apart from the great historical background it gave to Hitler's association with Munich, it was a good way to get orientated to the major sights and areas of the centre. Our guide was brilliant and took questions, and he gave us a little more time than we paid for.\n\" I did not go on the tour. I got back too late from the Dachau tour which was excellent by the way \"\nDid not get to the tour\n\" Guide was very knowledgable \"\nSteve our guide was extremely knowledgable and took us all around the city. It was very interesting and we learnt so much about the city\n\" Insightful and entertaining tour in Munich \"\nOur tour guide Keith the Scot gave the group a very insightful and entertaining tour filled with historical facts and non political views. His knowledge went beyond the tour subject and often mixed the tour with entertainment with jovial comments. I would highly recommend Keith. An excellent tour.\n\" So Interesting \"\nThis was a great tour. Our guide Aileen was very knowledgeable & really made the subject matter come alive. We have visited Munich many times, & this tour took us to parts of the city we had never been to, which was a bonus. Highly recommended.\n\" An excellent insight into the history of the 3rd Reicht in Munich \"\nOur guide was extremely knowledgable and passionate about the history of Germany and had so much knowledge to share. It was a great mix between knowledge & sites.",

        "raw_content": "Director's Philosophy\nFounded in 2006, the Music Institute of Chicago Academy has established itself as a top training center for highly gifted pre-college musicians.\nThe goal of the Academy is simple - to make aspiring young people the best musicians they can be. In order to achieve this, the Academy program provides a comprehensive musical education that includes private study with artist faculty, chamber music, chamber orchestra, theory classes and weekly enrichment offerings. Pianists also study piano literature and improvisation. Academy students are given many performance opportunities, both at the Music Institute and in the greater Chicago community.\nAs students move through the Academy experience we ask them to keep these ideas at the front of their minds:\n\u00b7 To be the most inquisitive musician\n\u00b7 To be the most articulate musician\n\u00b7 To be the most technically polished musician\n. To be able to move any audience for whom they play\nThe Academy enjoyed its tenth anniversary in 2015-16. As we celebrated this milestone with well-known guest soloists, I asked the students, past and present, what was special about being in the Academy. Everyone spoke of the important opportunities to network with some of the greatest teachers and performers in the world of music. They mentioned their satisfaction in being so well prepared for acceptance to some of the best music schools in the country. And they all realized how important it was for them to continue their education along with other brilliantly gifted students.\nThe Academy is a supportive and special family. We will endeavor to continue to bring out the best in these precious young people.\nJames Setapen",

This is why the photographer and videographer are so important. The images they create, edit, and deliver to you will be the tangible record of one of the most memorable days of your life. A combination of experience, quality equipment, and a professional lab really does make a difference in the results. For those reasons, many are of the opinion this is the one area where you DON\u2019T want to scrimp. Bobbi Brinkman of Bobbi [\u2026]\nFiled Under: Ceremony, Reception, Staying Within Budget\nEconomical Musical Entertainment Choices for Your Wedding\nThe musical entertainment for your wedding and reception can take many forms, ranging from pre-recordings, organists or other instrumentalists, live vocalists, solo artists, bands, and/or DJs. On the expensive end of the spectrum you have a choir, soloists, and organist or band at the ceremony and a full 17-piece band playing throughout the whole reception. On the other end, you can pare down the bare minimum by playing from MP3 speakers. Chances are your wedding will fall somewhere in between. That said, there are a variety of budget-friendly solutions to the music puzzle without going \u201cbare bones\u201d \u2026 Band, DJ, [\u2026]\nFiled Under: Ceremony, Reception, Staying Within Budget, Wedding Ideas, Wedding Planning Tools\n7 Ways to Let Your Guests \u201cHave Their Cocktails and Drink Them Too\u201d at Your Low-Budget Wedding\nIt only makes sense that the longer drinks are available, the larger the bar bill will be. Consequently, there are various ways to offer \u201cthe good stuff\u201d while also staying within a budget. One is to limit the amount of time drinks are available. The following time restrictions will all allow your guests to drink yet save you money. (1) Serve drinks the first hour or two only.(2) Close the bar during the meal.(3) Serve a full range of drinks during a designated cocktail time but beer and wine only for the remainder of the event.(4) Shorten cocktail \u201chour.\u201d You [\u2026]\n13 Ways to Stay Within Your Wedding Drink Budget\nA full bar, with bartender and a selection of premium liquors\u2014along with a champagne toast\u2014can put quite a large dent in the reception budget. But \u201call out\u201d is not your only option. There is a whole range of low-budget solutions from where the alcohol comes from (or whether you have cocktails at all) to when and how long you will offer it. Charging While (1) charging for alcohol is certainly an option, wedding professionals and guests, by a large majority, strongly disapprove of the practice. Your guests are just that\u2014guests. They will not expect to pay for food or drink [\u2026]\nOnce upon a time, meeting halls and ballrooms were the most obvious locations for wedding receptions. Not anymore. Today\u2019s non-traditional wedding venues often have a deeper meaning. This contributes toward making your wedding memories even more special. Any area with a large enough space is a contender, so think creatively. As a bonus, these venues are often cheaper than the traditional alternatives. But not always. Many times, they will require extras that the all-inclusive locations do not. For that reason, it\u2019s important to include all expenses when comparing costs. Some locations will need equipment to make them event ready. Consider [\u2026]",

        "raw_content": "https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/Robert-Vera-helped-vanquish-Nazis-8392631.php\nRobert Vera helped vanquish Nazis\nThey are considered \u201cthose that saved the world.\u201d\nThey are the men and women who sacrificed greatly to battle against the tangible tyranny of man. The fighting generation who stopped the cancer of evil during the Second World War.\nBut as the lights grow dim on the lives of our nation\u2019s aging heroes, we honor their spirits by remembering their stories. Especially, the stories of our neighbors who returned to West Texas after the war and added to the tapestry of our unique culture.\nStories like that of Plainviewian Robert Vera, who fought Nazis in the frozen war zone of France, Beligum and Germany in 1944. Celebrating his 91st birthday with his family Friday, Vera remembered his account during the turning point of our nation.\n\u201cI was real glad when it was over,\u201d said Vera.\nRaised in Ballinger, Vera said he spent his late teens making a living sheering sheep. He earned close to $6 a day. On his off time, Vera said he enjoyed having fun by frequenting movies, dances and other social events.\n\u201cI really didn\u2019t think about the war . . . Well, not until I was drafted,\u201d said Vera.\nAt 19, he received the draft call and quickly reported for duty in 1943.\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t really nervous,\u201d said Vera as he reported to Bastrop, just outside of Austin, for Army basic training.\n\u201cI did all right during training, It didn\u2019t hurt me none. I had already gotten used to shooting a gun by shooting rabbits,\u201d Vera said with a laugh.\nAfter basic training, Vera was trained as a combat engineer.\n\u201cI was known as a powder man,\u201d said Vera, but he said he was taught a variety of infantry battle techniques.\n\u201cI learned a lot about explosives,\u201d he said.\nAfter secondary training, Vera said he was shipped off to England.\n\u201cWe were known as a bastard battalion,\u201d Vera said, adding that once he got there, the men stood and waited to be assigned to any division that needed help.\nEventually assigned to the 104th Infantry Regiment 26th Division, Vera said he hopped on a ship and headed to France, where Allied forces were pushing Nazis back to Germany after the Invasion of Normandy.\n\u201cThere were hundreds of boats going together,\u201d Vera said, as he described the fleets of battleships heading to France.\nBut with the fleets came a broader target as Germans attacked all they could.\n\u201cI\u2019d be lying if I said I wasn\u2019t scared,\u201d Vera said, adding that his ship took lots of fire on the way to France.\nIn December 1944, Vera arrived in the freezing war zone of France and began fighting.\n\u201cIt was so cold that our toenails would fall off,\u201d he said, adding that they would often sleep in foxholes or in the snow.\n\u201cWe never knew if we were going backwards or forwards,\u201d said Vera.\nAs an attempt to keep their occupation of France, the Germans launched a major offensive, known as the Battle of the Bulge. In the almost month-long fight, 19,000 Americans were killed and 47,500 wounded, including Vera.\n\u201cWe were fighting and a shell exploded near us. I got a piece of shrapnel right in my leg,\u201d Vera said.\nVera, who was conscious during the whole time, was transported to safety and treated before being flown back to England for recovery. But it wouldn\u2019t take long for him to recover and he shipped back to France as soon as he could. By the time he returned, Allied forces had pushed the Nazis back into Germany after the Battle of the Rhine.\nVera fought as America moved deeper into Germany, but shortly after his return the Nazis would surrender, bringing an end to fighting in the European Theater.\n\u201cI was so glad it was over,\u201d said Vera.\nVera said he stayed in Germany for a year, as Allied forces helped with humanitarian aid. After completing the mission, he returned to the United States.\n\u201cI remember I was so glad to be back in America,\u201d said Vera, who added that he quickly enjoyed a T-bone steak.\nVera was placed on a train back to Texas where he would be discharged from the Army.\nHe went back to work after the war as a migrant worker, working the fields of the south. Eventually, Vera made it to Plainview to pick cotton and he never left. He met his future wife Lenora and the couple had nine children together.\nVera was an active member of the American Legion and has taken a trip to Washington to view the World War II memorials.",

        "raw_content": "An 'Educated' Guess\nIt\u2019s not hard to find scary headlines about 401(k)s \u2013 seems as though every week you read how people aren\u2019t saving enough, are worried that they aren\u2019t saving enough, aren\u2019t saving enough and aren\u2019t worried that they aren\u2019t saving enough\u2026 Then in the past couple of weeks, a new twist.\nFirst a headline that proclaims that \u201cThe 401(k) is Wreaking Havoc on Retirement.\u201d Then one that purports to share \u201cWhy 401(k)s are bad for people without a college degree.\u201d As it turns out, the articles are both about the same study, \u201cDisadvantages of the Less Educated: Education and Contributory Pensions at Work.\u201d\nThe authors of that study (ChangHwan Kim of the University of Kansas and Christopher Tamborini of the Social Security Administration) offer a basic premise \u2013 that less educated workers aren\u2019t as well served as college graduates by the current defined contribution-centric plan structures (notably 401(k)s) that predominate the retirement landscape today \u2013 which is to say that they are less likely to be covered by those plans, less likely to take advantage when they are covered, and inclined to save less than their degreed counterparts even when they do take advantage.\nThey present evidence that less-educated workers save less, even when they make the same money as those with college educations. How much less? They say that college-educated people are 1.2 times more likely to be enrolled in a DC plan than high-school graduates are \u2013 and that\u2019s even after controlling for income, access to a retirement plan, occupation, job tenure and other factors. Those with college degrees also contribute 26% more to their retirement, on average, according to the report.\nBut, not content to leave it there, they go on to suggest that less-educated workers were better off in a defined benefit structured environment where they didn\u2019t have to make the decision to participate, and where they didn\u2019t have to decide how much to save. (The most significant distinction \u2013 that in the private sector they generally didn\u2019t have to contribute \u2013 isn\u2019t mentioned.) Indeed, if the DB system had been as pervasive as many assume \u2013 or as generous in result as it was in design \u2013 they might have a point.\nWreaked Wrought?\nBut has that result \u2013 and the very existence of the 401(k) \u2013 truly \u201cwreaked havoc\u201d on the nation\u2019s retirement system? In fairness, the authors of the study don\u2019t make that claim \u2013 that\u2019s left to the journalists looking for a catchy headline (or hoping to press a specific agenda). But those who retain this fond notion of the way things were tend to gloss over the reality that it\u2019s one thing to be covered by, or even to participate in a DB plan, something else altogether to work there long enough to accumulate any real benefit. While some workers did spend their working career at a single employer (and some still do, especially in the public sector), the data show that for the most part we have long been a nation of relatively short-tenured workers.\nHow short? Well, the median job tenure in the United States has hovered around five years for the past three decades. Indeed, according to the nonpartisan Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI), in recent years it has ticked up, to about 5.5 years, but that\u2019s because women are staying in their jobs longer; job tenure for men has actually been dropping. What that means is that even workers who were \u201ccovered\u201d by a pension plan in the private sector \u2013 particularly back in the time before there weren\u2019t 401(k)s \u2013 were highly likely to walk away with\u2026 nothing.\nWhile I get that a system which relies on workers to take action, to make decisions and, yes, even to set money aside from their pay to fund their retirement, might not work as well for those who don\u2019t take advantage of it as a system that asked nothing of them other than to remain employed, the realities of American job tenure probably undermined those advantages \u2013 and then some.\nThe less educated may indeed be at something of a disadvantage in a voluntary savings system relative to those who are more inclined to take advantage of its opportunities \u2013 but that shouldn\u2019t be equated with a presumption that they were better served by a system that depended on job tenure levels that never existed for most.",

        "title": "Professors, power and predators: why student-teacher relationships should be banned | National Observer",
        "raw_content": "Professors, power and predators: why student-teacher relationships should be banned\nBy Toula Drimonis in Analysis, Culture | January 17th 2018\nCyclists ride outside a Concordia University building in downtown Montreal on Sept. 15, 2010. Photo by Concordia University on Flickr\nThe Canadian public has been shocked and scandalized in recent weeks, following a slew of allegations of sexual misconduct within Concordia University\u2019s creative writing department, and the subsequent suspension of two professors.\nAn investigation into those claims is currently underway by an independent party, while a parallel discussion takes place about whether sexual relations between professors and students should be allowed at all.\nI couldn't resist weighing in.\nThe issue of consensual, yet highly questionable student-teacher relationships is a complicated one that lends itself to no easy answers. No major Canadian university currently explicitly forbids teacher-student relations \u2014 and based on their reticence to change anything, most appear to believe that their codes of conduct and sexual-assault policies in place provide enough protection for their students.\nBut in light of revelations that a number of reported cases of sexual harassment at Canadian universities have been mishandled, or even silenced by university administrations, some are starting to question that.\nThis past year \u2014 even before the Steven Galloway scandal broke \u2014 the University of British Columbia (UBC) started assessing whether professors should be barred from having romantic relationships with their students, as part of developing their new sexual-assault policy. Author Steven Galloway was fired last year from UBC, which cited \"a record of misconduct that resulted in an irreparable breach of the trust placed in faculty members.\"\nMany argue that since undergraduate and graduate students are of legal age and therefore consenting adults, and relationships sometimes do develop (particularly in an environment where you find yourself in admiration of someone\u2019s body of work), what would be the point in banning them since rules are already in place for sexual harassment?\nTroubling power imbalance\nThe fact remains, however, that there is a major power imbalance between a professor and a student \u2014 one that can easily be exploited by someone with predatory inclinations. When one considers issues of consent and conflict of interest, it\u2019s not unreasonable that some major U.S. academic institutions like Harvard, Yale and Connecticut have already written policies banning such sexual relationships.\nFaculty have the power not only to grade and evaluate students\u2019 work, but also write referral letters, sit on editorial boards of academic journals, and act as mentors and counsellors. Judging by many of the recent testimonials of former students, this not only prevents many victims from coming forward, but also raises the question of whether it prevents students from being in a position to truly consent to any type of relationship at all.\nWell-known novelist and Concordia creative writing department alumnus Heather O\u2019Neill finds these relationships unacceptable and firmly believes universities should make them illegal. \u201cThere is no consent in a power relationship like that,\u201d she recently said in an interview. \u201cThere is no penalty for it, the university looks the other way and it\u2019s almost seen as some sort of twisted perk of the job. It needs to stop.\u201d\nAward-winning novelist Heather O'Neill is speaking out about sexual harassment allegations at Concordia University. Photo courtesy of Julia C. Vona\nWhy no code of ethics for professors?\nMartine Delvaux, a writer and a professor of literature at Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al (UQAM), who wrote Sexe, amour et pouvoir : il \u00e9tait une fois \u00e0 l'universit\u00e9 (Sex, love, and power: once upon a time in university), also objects to these relationships:\n\u201cThere\u2019s a code of ethics for doctors, a code of ethics for psychologists \u2014 why isn\u2019t there one for professors?\u201d she asked during our interview.\nThis past year, the Quebec Students Union, which represents 72,000 university students across the province, recommended that professor-student relationships be banned as part of overall consultations on sexual violence. In 2015, after Harvard enacted their ban, 80 professors and students signed a letter that was published in French-language daily Le Devoir, requesting exactly that.\nBut the demand has been met with skepticism from the Quebec Federation of University Professors, who argue that, while they understand the inevitable complications and risks, such a ban would be extremely difficult to enforce.\nThe National Teachers Federation, (La F\u00e9d\u00e9ration des enseignantes et enseignants du Qu\u00e9bec (FNEEQ), however, which is comprised of 46 unions representing 85 per cent of Cegep teachers, feels differently. It adopted a strict position two years ago regarding teacher-student relations and considers them highly unethical and inappropriate.\n\"Obviously, the fact that 'we are all adults in universities' is not satisfactory\u2026 to the victims anyway,\" says Sylvain Marois, Vice President of the Federation's University group.\nThis past December, Quebec passed Bill 151, An act to prevent and fight sexual violence in higher education institutions. The law, which must be adopted by Sept. 1, 2019, has a provision requiring that post-secondary institutions adopt policies governing intimate relationships between students and university personnel, including professors and lecturers, but doesn\u2019t explicitly state that they should be banned.\nWhile some people argue that real, long-lasting relationships can occur even under such circumstances, Delvaux believes they are the exception, not the rule: \"The rule is a female student having her career and life devastated by a relationship with a professor that turned sour or ended.\u201d\nShe\u2019s particularly leery of the creative arts world. \u201cThe literary world is especially dangerous, as Concordia has just shown,\u201d she said. \u201cA creative writing professor will also be a published writer, editor, critic, sit on committees inside and outside of academia, etc. They exert a tentacular power.\u201d\nConcordia University has launched an independent investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct on campus. File photo courtesy of Theen Moy/Flickr Creative Commons\nPredation and toxic masculinity\nRecent, disturbing testimonials from former students \u2014 including this Twitter thread by film writer and former Concordia creative writing program alumnus Celeste Parr, this anonymous article in The McGill Daily and this blog post by writer Julie McIsaac \u2014 all paint vivid and troubling pictures of repeated, habitual predation and toxic masculinity, along with the nefarious effects of these professors\u2019 far-reaching powers. In most cases, they also reveal universities\u2019 reluctance to deal with any of the accusations head on. Reading them should, at the very least, make us question the dynamics in these relationships and what needs to be done to discourage them from happening.\nRight now, with nothing explicitly forbidding professors from dating students, academic institutions would do well to address the weaknesses in their own conduct codes that basically enables, and possibly facilitates this behaviour, and places the onus of proof on the students to explain why they feel wronged or taken advantage of \u2014 ultimately protecting the professor in the long run. With a change in the conduct code, the onus would automatically fall on the professors and not on the more vulnerable party.\nAnd, if an outright ban is neither desired nor deemed effectual, universities should ensure that better mechanisms are in place so that students aren\u2019t penalized professionally for dating a professor or, in sharp contrast, rebuffing a professor\u2019s advances. Sexual harassment training for faculty members should be mandatory, and a professor in a relationship with a student should be obligated to report it to the administration and ensure they are not responsible for grading or teaching that student.\nIn cases of documented abuse however, meaningful sanctions should be imposed. The sole focus shouldn't be on protecting the institution's reputation, which creates the impression that faculty members are always protected and these relationships condoned.\nWhile sexual harassment and notions of professional conduct are technically covered via university policies, there are many related issues that aren\u2019t addressed by them. These relationships can, for example, toxic for other students. Imagine taking a class where you know your fellow student is sleeping with the professor \u2014 the appearance of unprofessional conduct alone, or possible distorted judgement or favouritism undermines the institution and the profession.\n\u201cIt was one of the points I tried to make in 2009,\u201d Mark Bourrie told me. The former Concordia teacher and current law student contacted the journalism department at the time to inform them of what he referred to in his emails as \u201csexual improprieties,\u201d and how they were affecting other students.\n\u201cIt's not just an issue of the classroom and grades. Professors have a lot of power over things like internships, references scholarships, conferences, research and teaching assistantships, etc.,\u201d he said. Bourrie said he feels that the university failed to act on his concerns.\nA student hits the books at the University of the Fraser Valley's library on Sept. 27, 2012. Photo by Rick Collins/University of the Fraser Valley on Flickr\n\u2018Adults are adults\u2019 is just an excuse\nWith regard to the Concordia creative writing department alumni and specific testimonials that have recently surfaced, an additional question lingers: how does one deal with the possibility of reprisals in small literary presses when career-defining decisions often involve the very same people you may have rejected as a student?\nThe Canada Council for the Arts recently issued a statement on sexual harassment and sexual misconduct in the cultural sector, saying it would be \u201creviewing their granting policies\u201d to ensure they better addressed situations involving \u201cartists organizations receiving Canada Council funding.\u201d\nPatti Sonntag, who once worked for small presses in Montreal and Vancouver, said something is still missing.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s missing is an arbitration system connected to the arts council grants that people can go to if a publisher or similar employer tries to set up a quid pro quo relationship in exchange for work or publication,\u201d Sonntag, who is now a managing editor at The New York Times\u2019 News Services division, told National Observer.\n\u201cIn the broader picture, this could benefit women and men across the community \u2014 as long as the system protects those who step forward from reprisals.\nBecause of the UBC and Concordia allegations, poet, novelist and Concordia alumnus Zoe Whittal, who once approved professor-student relationships, has since changed her mind:\n\u201cI\u2019ve realized that the 'adults are adults' phrase that I clung to somewhat thoughtlessly, gets used to excuse all kinds of patterns of behaviour, and allows colleagues and the administration to turn a blind eye to pathological abuses of power,\" she says.\n\"Plus, how long is a semester \u2014 three months? An MFA degree is two years? If you're that attracted to someone, it's not a big deal to wait until you don't have power over someone to date them. And if you only want to date someone when they're a student, or if you're 53 and they're 19, you're attracted to having power over them.\u201d\nEditor's note: This article was updated at 12:15 p.m. ET on Jan. 22 to correctly identify that Mark Bourrie was a teacher when he approached Concordia University with his concerns and not a graduate student. It was also updated with new comments from the National Teachers Federation.\nI reccommend Laura Kipnis's\nBlair Lewis | Thu, 01/18/2018 - 06:37\nI reccommend Laura Kipnis's book Unwanted Advances: Sexual Paranoia Comes to Campus on this topic.\nhttps://www.harpercollins.com/9780062657886/unwanted-advances\nhttp://www.motherjones.com/media/2017/04/feminist-campus-sexual-assault/\n\"And if you only want to date\nTreetop | Thu, 01/18/2018 - 19:22\n\"And if you only want to date someone when they're a student, or if you're 53 and they're 19, you're attracted to having power over them.\u201d\nNot to mention clueless about age-apropriate dating and the cliche stereotype of midlife crisis. Staff are there to work and students are there to learn. Professionalism is part of the job and the very generous pay package. Preying on students is not a perk of the job and there are no circumstances where it's acceptable to have any sexual or romantic contact with a student. Instead of Adults are adults, it should be All Students are Students. Even if the students are adults, the imbalance makes it bad news and it's why many companies have strict rules against it. I had believed all schools already did ban these relationships, at least in Canada and I am sickened that they are set up for exploitation. It isn't enough to have scandal-driven changes here and there, while the festering boil of patrimony keeps growing. Women in Iceland went on strike for one day in 1975 - no job, no housework or looking after kids - the country was in chaos and eyes were opened.

        "title": "Hugo Chavez & Venezuela -- A family view of Venezuela\u2019s socialist catastrophe | National Review",
        "raw_content": "About Christian Alejandro Gonzalez\nFollow Christian Alejandro Gonzalez on Twitter\nA soldier walks past a portrait of Venezuela\u2019s late President Hugo Chavez in Porlamar, Venezuela, September 15, 2016. (Marco Bello/REUTERS)\nA family view of Venezuela\u2019s socialist catastrophe\nOn April 11, 2002, my stepfather unleashed a barrage of machine-gun fire at a secret-police helicopter. It promptly flew away.\nLet me give you a bit of context.\nOn that day, the streets of Caracas roared with the sounds of protests against President Hugo Ch\u00e1vez. Hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans from all across the socioeconomic spectrum had assembled to express opposition to Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s creeping authoritarianism. They were marching toward the Palace of Miraflores \u2014 the Venezuelan equivalent of the White House, where President Ch\u00e1vez lived. In response, Ch\u00e1vez mobilized thousands of his civilian supporters, armed them with deadly weaponry, and gathered them near the palace to serve as a sort of protective bulwark. They defended the president with enthusiasm.\nMy stepfather reports that my little four-year-old self was present at the beginning of the march; unfortunately, I recall nothing. When it became clear that there would be a violent clash between the pro- and anti-Ch\u00e1vez factions, my step\u00adfather decided to take me home. The situation had become too dangerous. Despite this act of precaution, my family would still participate in \u2014 one might say \u201ccause\u201d \u2014 some of that day\u2019s violence. At some point in the early evening, one of Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s helicopters tried to land on the golf course that our apartment overlooked. My stepfather prevented it from doing so. Upon seeing the forces of Chavismo near our home, he took out his M16, stood at the window, and fired several shots to scare it off. Thankfully, it worked.\nMeanwhile, anti-Ch\u00e1vez protests continued elsewhere in the city. The president was afraid that he would be overthrown and that the \u201cprogress\u201d his revolution had made would be reversed. He ordered the army to come out from the barracks, unleash the tanks, and crush the marchers. His generals were appalled. They knew \u2014 and Ch\u00e1vez knew \u2014 that using the military for crowd control would lead to the deaths of thousands. So in the name of the Venezuelan constitution they mutinied, arresting Ch\u00e1vez and replacing him with an interim government. Many of Venezuela\u2019s civic associations initially supported the coup, including the hierarchy of the Catholic Church, the largest labor union, and the main business confederation. They were all glad that Ch\u00e1vez had been removed by constitutionalist officers.\nThe interim government that came into power was supposed to act as a caretaker while elections were planned. Instead, a group of reactionary elites led by businessman Pedro Carmona hijacked the coup. Carmona dismissed the legislature and abolished the constitution \u2014 institutions that at the time enjoyed massive popular support. These measures alienated the labor unions, the military, and vast swathes of the population. Hours after Carmona announced the dissolution of the legislature, people all throughout the country hit the streets and demanded that Ch\u00e1vez be returned to the presidency. The military acquiesced, retrieving Ch\u00e1vez from where he was being held and promptly putting him back in power. The next time he vacated the presidency, it was because cancer had killed him.\nIn advanced democracies such as the United States, it is not typical for civilians to shoot at their government\u2019s helicopters. Nor is it typical for presidents to order the massacre of their own citizens.\nOf course, Venezuela is not an advanced democracy and never has been. Yet its people had never been as polarized as they became under Ch\u00e1vez; its government had never been as corrupt and inefficient as it became under him. In the 1970s, Venezuela was a model for Latin American governance. Certainly it had its problems, but its standard of living competed with that of some Western European countries. The Venezuela of the 1970s was, moreover, a relatively functioning democracy in a region plagued by grotesque military dictatorships. Today\u2019s Venezuela is a filthy autocracy ruled by thieves and incompetents.\nInnumerable gallons of ink have been spilled attempting to answer that question, but one thing should be beyond dispute: State socialism played a key role in getting Venezuela into its current mess. This point has been so obfuscated in the press recently that it deserves to be forcefully made.\nSocialism was an essential component of the theory and practice of Chavismo. Consider, first, how Ch\u00e1vez ideologically justified his far-reaching programs. He launched his 1998 presidential campaign on a promise to destroy \u201csavage neoliberal capitalism\u201d and \u201cYankee imperialism.\u201d By 2006 he had declared that the world had to choose between \u201csocialism or death.\u201d Almost every week of his rule, he denounced \u201coligarchs,\u201d \u201cfascists,\u201d \u201choarders,\u201d and \u201cspeculators\u201d \u2014 the \u201ccorrupt bourgeoisie,\u201d in a phrase. His policies, he claimed, would \u201cuplift the poor,\u201d \u201cempower the marginalized,\u201d \u201csave slum-dwellers from penury.\u201d\nThis rhetoric was accompanied by predictable changes in policy. Ch\u00e1vez took direct control of Venezuela\u2019s national oil company, funneling its profits into massive social programs. Enormous subsidies were channeled to public-housing projects, health care, and education. Gasoline and basic food products were subsidized or subjected to price controls. Onerous labor regulations were implemented. The government\u2019s payroll dramatically expanded. Worker cooperatives proliferated under state leadership. Protections of private property were systematically eroded: Peasants, for instance, were told to occupy large farms, displacing their owners in the process. Key firms that produced steel, glass, electricity, food, and paper were nationalized or their property expropriated; so too were the telecommunications and transportation industries.\nWhatever else Chavismo may have stood for and represented, socialism was undoubtedly part of it.\nMy family moved to America around 2006, when I was nine years old. We settled in Cuban-majority Miami, though, so the culture shock was never particularly pronounced. It did not take me long to learn English or assimilate, especially since I was always encouraged to do those things by my stepfather.\nSince I easily became part of Miami\u2019s cultural mainstream, it took my moving to New York City for college to realize just how vast are the cultural differences between Americans and Venezuelans. I could go on at length about the peculiarities of Venezuelan culture, but I\u2019ll mention just one. Venezuelans have an astonishing capacity for understatement. Many Venezuelans I know can tell horror stories from back home: being robbed at gunpoint at a red light, hearing from people who\u2019ve seen family members be murdered or raped, being held for ransom, witnessing mendicants dig through dumpsters in search of food, and so forth. (Indeed, two of my own family members, a first cousin and a great-uncle, have been murdered in the past 15 years. Venezuela is exceptionally unsafe.) What\u2019s curious is that all such stories are told in a quite normal tone of voice, without emotion or deep inflection, without any serious acknowledgment of the magnitude of the tragedy.\nTranslations are inevitably imperfect, but allow me to try to convey the feeling of the thing. Imagine you\u2019re in an everyday conversation when the person across you says, \u201cYeah, the other day this guy I knew from middle school got killed at the bakery. A couple of bikers came by, shot him in the head, then took his wallet. And his bread. I guess the bread must\u2019ve been good.\u201d Then follows more regular conversation. Not a beat missed.\nPerhaps the understatement is how Venezuelans cope with the disasters in their country. At any rate, it comes with everything you\u2019d expect: an impressive gallows humor, a dark sarcasm, and an utter indifference to minor problems and minor offenses. If the concept of a microaggression were ever introduced to Venezuela, millions would die \u2014 of laughter.\nNew acquaintances often ask whether my Venezuelan background influenced my politics or caused my aversion to the far Left. For a long time my answer was no. My opposition to authoritarian radicalism did not come from what I knew about Hugo Ch\u00e1vez; rather, it stemmed from my disgust with the Bolshevik Revolution and my annoyance with loose talk of perfect societies. But recently I have started to reconsider.\nA certain type of conservative disposition probably was imparted to me by how I was raised. Given the thick skin that my stepfather\u2019s parenting style forced me to grow, there was never any chance that I would be taken by, say, politically correct objections to manifestly inoffensive language. My upbringing also showed me that the stability of the nuclear family is crucial to personal development.\nYet, over time, what has most made a mark on me is that I have a personal point of comparison, unavailable to most Americans, between a thriving country and a disintegrating one. Even though I did not live in Venezuela long enough to suffer its privations, I have enough personal contact with those who endure them every day to get a small sense of what it is like.\nKnowledge of Venezuelan history has also turned me into a vigorous opponent of politicians who would annihilate, in the name of a mere policy agenda, the precious institutions that sustain liberal democracy. Indeed, it is important not to forget that Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s assault on Venezuela\u2019s liberal institutions was committed on behalf of the poor \u2014 and often with their sanction. With the backing of the masses, Ch\u00e1vez dismantled Venezuela\u2019s rule of law, replacing competent police officers and judges with functionaries of a Chavista persuasion. He converted the judiciary and the legislature from acting as checks on presidential authority to serving as rubber stamps for his diktats. All this was done ostensibly so he could centralize power to mobilize resources and help the underprivileged. And yet Ch\u00e1vez failed precisely because he succeeded: Power was centralized, and the economic policies that resulted were disastrous. The poor were left with little to show for the demise of Venezuelan democracy.\nThe demolition of liberal institutions wreaked concomitant damage on Venezuela\u2019s social fabric. Hugo Ch\u00e1vez nurtured a nasty and vicious polarization that drove Venezuelans apart. Those who opposed him were deemed fascists and reactionaries; those who supported him, patriots and heroes. No country can long cohere if half of its inhabitants consider the other half so wicked as to pose an existential threat to national survival. The lamentable truth about Venezuela today is that, in the absence of a grand national compromise, total social dissolution is preventable only through dictatorship \u2014 a reality that President Maduro, for all his ineptitude, is seemingly able to grasp. Milton Friedman once wrote that the \u201cdelicate threads that hold society together\u201d are difficult to knit but easy to shred. In Venezuela, those threads are no more.\nBefore writing this essay, I had to ask my stepfather for permission to use the helicopter story: There was a chance, I thought, that he would be reluctant to have his exploits recorded in print. As it turns out, he did not care; he told me I could say whatever I wanted.\nThere was something delightfully insouciant about that response. If he had any regrets about his anti-Ch\u00e1vez activities, he betrayed no sign.\nMy stepfather sometimes says he no longer cares about what happens in Venezuela. For him there is no hope. The education system is in shambles; the military supports the dictatorship; the capital has fled; the middle class has been hollowed out.\nBut I don\u2019t believe him when he says he is indifferent to Venezuela\u2019s suffering. He keeps up with the news from Venezuela much more closely than I do, presumably not something he would do if the indifference were real. I suspect that he is just trying to distance himself emotionally from the fact that the place where he spent his youth and young adulthood no longer exists. Conscious of our luck and privilege though he is, he probably just wants to enjoy his life in a free and prosperous society without having to think too long about the shame that is the government in Caracas. I don\u2019t blame him for it. And I am very glad he brought me to the States with him. There is, after all, no National Review back in Venezuela, and I\u2019m not sure my anti-Chavista jeremiads would have been received too well if we\u2019d stuck around.\nChristian Alejandro Gonzalez\t\u2014 Christian Gonzalez is a political-science student at Columbia University and a former editorial intern at National Review.\t@xchrisgonz",

The man wasn't her brother at all, but a stranger with a similar name.\nShirell Powell is now suing a Bronx hospital over the case of mistaken identity, saying she and other relatives were put through more than a month of unnecessary grief.\n\"That is my baby brother, so it was really hurtful,\" Powell told the New York Post. \"I was worried, hurt, crying, screaming, calling everybody. It was a horrible feeling.\"\nHer actual brother, Frederick Williams, was alive, but unbeknownst to his family, he was locked up in a city jail.\nSt. Barnabas Hospital spokesman Steven Clark told the Post that the lawsuit was without merit.\nThe mix-up began on July 15, according to Powell's lawsuit, when Freddy Clarence Williams was admitted to the hospital unconscious with brain damage following a drug overdose.\nThe hospital looked in its records, saw that a Frederick Williams had been treated before, and called his family, the suit said. But it was the wrong Fred Williams.\nPowell said when she visited the man she thought was her brother, he had a tube in his mouth and a swollen appearance. Another sibling arrived and raised doubts about whether some error had been made.\n\"She walked up into the room and said, 'That is not my brother,'\" Powell said. But the man's facial features were similar enough that the family decided it couldn't be a mistake.\nOne of Frederick Williams' two teenage daughters came from Virginia to say goodbye.\n\"She was hysterical,\" Powell recalled. \"She was holding his hand, kissing him, crying.\"\nPowell authorized doctors to withdraw life support on July 29. The city's medical examiner discovered the erroneous identification Aug. 16.\n\"I nearly fainted because I killed somebody that I didn't even know. I gave consent,\" said Powell.\nThe lawsuit seeks unspecified compensation for severe emotional harm.\nPowell's lawyer, Alexander Dudelson, told the Post that neither the medical examiner's office nor the hospital would tell him anything about the man who died.\nPublic records show that there are many people with variations of the name Fred Williams living in New York City.\nPowell said that she has since gone to see her brother at a court appearance and phoned him in jail.\nWhen she explained that she had unknowingly given approval to turn off his life support, \"He was saying, 'You were going to kill me?'\" Powell recalled. \"I explained to him, once you're brain-dead, there is nothing to do.\"\nWilliams told the Post he wasn't mad at his sister. But he was upset at the hospital.\n\"How could the hospital do something like that? Look what they put my family through,\" he said.",

These scripts are expected to cover many different local languages,\" ICANN India head Samiran Gupta told PTI.\nICANN has been working towards building the rules for secure and stable definition of the top-level domains for scripts used globally, so that people with no knowledge of English are able to go online and access the websites with the domain names completely in their languages.\nFor example, one can enter the domain in Hindi to get Hindi content, instead of typing a domain name in English for this purpose, which is the current practice.\nAbout 52 percent of the world population have access to Internet now and ICANN is contributing towards bridging the digital divide, he said.\n\"Many of the remaining 48 percent are non-English speaking people and those who do not have the ability to type in English. The work will allow domain names to be available for these people in their languages,\" the ICANN India head said.\nWhen asked that searching content in regional languages is already possible in Google and other search engines, he said the current effort is focused on enabling the domain names in regional languages, which in turn would enable the system to publish local language content being searched.\n\"This work for defining rules for the domain names for languages spoken in India is underway with a dedicated community based panel,\" he said.\nThe Neo-Brahmi Generation Panel, as it is called, consists of more than 60 technical experts and linguists from India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Singapore, where these languages and scripts are used, Mr Gupta said.\nThe proposals for six scripts - Devanagari, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Oriya and Telugu - are already released for public comment.\nCurrently there are 4.2 billion Internet users globally which may rise to 5 billion by 2022, Mr Gupta said.\nIBM Security Unveils Free Service to Protect Businesses\n'Great British Firewall' Can Thwart Cyber-Attacks, Says GCHQ\nUS Plan to Cede Internet Domain Control on Track: Icann\nRegional Domain nameDomain Name System (DNS)",

        "raw_content": "Credit has two definitions\u2014borrowed money that allows you to purchase things, and the likelihood that you will pay back these loans and be approved to take out new ones (this likelihood is demonstrated through a credit score).\nBorrowed money can take many forms, such as a car loan, home mortgage, student loan, or credit cards for product purchases.\nYour credit score is determined by the three credit agencies and helps lenders determine how much money you'll be able to borrow and what interest your loans will have. The interest is additional money that you are charged and will need to pay back so the lender can profit on your loan.\nBorrowed Money as Credit\nHaving access to credit means you can buy something before you pay for it. This ability to borrow gives you, the borrower, flexibility in planning your purchases and makes it possible to pay for a large purchase over time\u2014however, you also pay interest on the purchase amount, so use credit wisely, and only borrow money to make necessary purchases. Tuition can be a large expense, so many students and parents of students choose to take out loans to fill in the gap after scholarships and other financial aid have been awarded.\nSome education loans, such as GradPLUS and parent PLUS loans, require a credit check. Credit plays a big role in your life, which is why having good credit, making payments on time, and minimizing your debt are so important.\nCreditors (and credit agencies) look at three factors to determine your credit score, which determines your eligibility for a loan. The factors are typically referred to as the three C's of credit: character, capacity, and collateral.\nCharacter. How you've handled debt in the past (whether you pay bills on time, pay off lenders early, carry a balance month to month, etc.) tends to determine how you will handle it in the future. When reviewing your character related to credit, lenders look at payment history, lengths of credit history, and types of credit used.\nCapacity. Based on your income and other debt responsibilities (credit cards, car loans, mortgage, etc.), lenders determine whether you can afford an additional loan. They also take into account amounts owed on different accounts, how much available credit you have (or if you carry a balance over from month to month), new credit accounts, and how many lines of credit you've applied for recently.\nCollateral. As a borrower, you will often need to list collateral, or something of value (like a car, fine jewelry, or property), to secure repayment of the loan. If you cannot repay the loan, the creditor will seize your collateral as repayment.\nUsing these three factors, credit agencies assign you a FICO credit score, which ranges from 300 to 850. This is essentially a rating of the likelihood of you being 90 or more days past due on your bill.\nIn the past, lenders reviewed these three criteria simply by looking at your credit report. But now, most lenders use an electronic system that assigns numbers to your credit score. The number you are assigned dictates what type and how much credit you can receive. This technique is referred to as credit scoring. A credit score tells the lender how likely it is that you will pay back the loan and adhere to the loan terms.\nCredit Agencies and Credit Reports\nTo determine your creditworthiness, potential lenders will acquire your credit report from credit agencies. You have a right to request a copy of your credit report at any time and can get one for free from each agency once a year. The three credit agencies are:\nYour credit report includes the following information:\nTax liens, judgments, and bankruptcies\nCurrent loan balances, original amount borrowed, amount of payment, status, and number of late payments\nAll credit inquiries for the past 24 months\nNegative credit reporting stays on your file for seven years, with the exception of bankruptcy, which stays on your credit for 10 years. NOTE: It is illegal for information regarding race, gender, religion, national origin, checking or savings accounts, medical history, purchases paid in full, and business accounts to appear on your credit report.\nThe Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) guarantees equal access to credit. It is unlawful for a creditor to:\nDiscriminate on basis of sex, race, marital status, or national origin\nAsk if you are divorced or widowed\nAsk about future plans to have or raise children\nNot consider public income as reliable income\nNot consider alimony, child support, or other payments as income\nIt is legal to ask for some personal information on a loan application, such as:\nPrior debt",

Initially, the quake toppled homes and buildings and sent panicked communities rushing into the streets. About 20 minutes later, a wall of water up to 10 meters (33 feet) high surged inland for kilometers (miles) with seemingly unstoppable force, carrying along trees, houses, train cars \u2013 and thousands of people \u2013 in a churning rush.\nMore than 170,000 people died in Indonesia alone, more than three-quarters of the total death toll.\nIndonesian Vice President Jusuf Kalla led a prayer ceremony in Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh province, on Friday. He and other officials placed flowers at a mass grave where thousands of unknown tsunami victims were buried. A separate event was held to thank ambassadors from the many foreign countries that helped Aceh recover after the disaster.\n\u201cHere in this field 10 years ago \u2026 we tearfully saw thousands of corpses lying,\u201d Kalla said. \u201cNo words can describe our human feelings at that time \u2013 confused, shocked, sad, scared \u2013 in seeing the suffering of the people in Aceh. But we could not remain in sadness, Aceh had to rise again, and all Indonesians in this archipelago helped, people all over the world offered their assistance.\u201d\n\u201cIn this moment, we also say thanks to the world, which has helped Aceh from the post-disaster condition 10 years ago,\u201d he said.\nIn Thailand, more than 5,000 people were killed, about half of whom were tourists celebrating the holiday season on the country\u2019s renowned white-sand beaches. Foreigners from 38 nations were killed by the waves that struck southern Thailand.\nMore than 100 survivors of the tsunami along with bereaved relatives from Germany, Austria and Switzerland held a memorial service on a beach in Khao Lak, Thailand. They walked into the waves and placed flowers in the warm Andaman Sea, while diplomats put wreaths on the sand.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t expect it would touch me so much after 10 years again because I\u2019ve come back every now and then in recent years,\u201d said tsunami survivor Claudia Geist of Germany, who was so badly injured during the disaster she almost lost her leg. \u201cBut this has been a completely different experience now connecting with all the other people.\u201d\nThai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha led a ceremony at a beached police boat that was out at sea when the tsunami struck and was carried 2 kilometers (more than 1 mile) inland by the massive waves. It has become a permanent memorial to the power of the waves that day.\n\u201cThe tsunami claimed many lives. However, it allowed us see the kindness and help that came from around the world that helped us pass through the difficult time,\u201d Prayuth said, before the dead and missing were commemorated by a minute of silence.\nIn Sri Lanka that day, the water swept a passenger train from its tracks, killing nearly 2,000 people in a single blow. The locomotive and five of the original carriages, decorated with Buddhist flags, made a memorial journey Friday over the deadly route, carrying survivors who mourned the dead and missing.\nSwedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven was to deliver a speech at a ceremony at Uppsala Cathedral, just north of Stockholm, to remember the 543 Swedes who died in the tsunami.\nPresident Joachim Gauck of Germany, which lost more than 500 people to the tsunami, said in a message marking the anniversary that \u201clocals and tourists found themselves in a situation in which they had a shared destiny, a bond which can still be felt today.\u201d\nAssociated Press reporters Jerry Harmer in Khao Lak, Thailand, Jocelyn Gecker in Bangkok and Krishan Francis in Pereliya, Sri Lanka, contributed to this report.\nMalaysian Prime Minister cuts short Hawaii vacation after floods kill 5",

        "raw_content": "Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Enhances Hospital Disinfection of Superbugs\nInfectious Diseases, Patient Safety\n- Johns Hopkins to begin decontaminating isolation rooms with robotic, vapor-dispersing devices\nNewswise \u2014 Infection control experts at The Johns Hopkins Hospital have found that a combination of robot-like devices that disperse a bleaching agent into the air and then detoxify the disinfecting chemical are highly effective at killing and preventing the spread of multiple-drug-resistant bacteria, or so-called hospital superbugs.\nA study report on the use of hydrogen peroxide vaporizers -- first deployed in several Singapore hospitals during the 2002 outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, and later stocked by several U.S. government agencies in case of an anthrax attack - is to be published Jan. 1 in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases.\nIn the study, the Johns Hopkins team placed the devices in single hospital rooms after routine cleaning to disperse a thin film of the bleaching hydrogen peroxide across all exposed hospital equipment surfaces, as well as on room floors and walls. Results showed that the enhanced cleaning reduced by 64 percent the number of patients who later became contaminated with any of the most common drug-resistant organisms. Moreover, researchers found that protection from infection was conferred on patients regardless of whether the previous room occupant was infected with drug-resistant bacteria or not.\n\"Hydrogen peroxide vapor, as spread around patients' rooms by these devices, represents a major technological advance in preventing the spread of dangerous bacteria inside hospitals and, especially, from one patient occupant to the next, even though sick patients were never in the same room at the same time,\" says infectious disease specialist and study senior investigator Trish Perl, M.D., M.Sc.\nOf special note, researchers say, was that enhanced cleaning with the vapor reduced by 80 percent a patient's chances of becoming colonized by a particularly aggressive and hard-to-treat bacterium, vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE).\nIn what is believed to be the first head-to-head comparison between traditional hand-cleaning and mopping with bleaching agents and robotic vaporizers, researchers routinely tested patients and their surroundings not only for VRE, but also for the more common methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, and lesser-known bacteria, including Clostridium difficile and Acinetobacter baumannii.\nSome 6,350 patient admissions to JHH were closely tracked as part of the two-and-a-half-year analysis, as patients moved into and out of 180 private hospital rooms. Almost half the rooms received enhanced cleaning with hydrogen peroxide vapor in between patients, while the rest did not. Overall, multiple-drug-resistant organisms were found on room surfaces in 21 percent of rooms tested, but mostly in rooms that did not undergo enhanced cleaning.\nPerl says that patients bringing in or picking up drug-resistant organisms while undergoing treatment in hospitals is a persistent and growing problem, and previous research has shown that patients who stay in a hospital room previously occupied by an infected patient are at greater risk of becoming infected.\n\"Our study results are evidence that technological solutions, when combined with standard cleaning, can effectively and systematically decontaminate patients' rooms and augment other behavioral practices, such as strict hospital staff compliance with hand-washing and bathing patients in disinfecting chlorhexidine when they are first admitted to the hospital,\" says Perl, senior hospital epidemiologist for the Johns Hopkins Health System and a professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.\n\"Our goal is to improve all hospital infection control practices, including cleaning and disinfection, as well as behavioral and environmental practices, to the point where preventing the spread of these multiple-drug-resistant organisms also minimizes the chances of patients becoming infected and improves their chances of recovery,\" says Perl.\nThe paired robot-like devices, each about the size of a washing machine and weighing nearly 60 pounds, as well as supplies used in the study, were provided by their manufacturer, Bioquell Inc. of Horsham, Pa.\nAfter the room has been cleaned, the vents are covered and the two devices are placed inside. The sliding door is closed, and the room is sealed. Then, the larger of the two devices disperses hydrogen peroxide into the room, leaving a very tiny, almost invisible layer (only 2 microns to 6 microns in thickness) on all exposed surfaces, including keyboards and monitors, as well as tables and chairs.\nBecause hydrogen peroxide can be toxic to humans if ingested or corrosive if left on the skin for too long, the second, smaller device is activated to break down the bleach into its component water and oxygen parts. The combined operation takes the devices about an hour and a half to complete.\n\"What is so exciting about this new method of infection control is that the devices are easy to use and hospital staff embrace it very quickly,\" says surgeon and study co-investigator Pamela Lipsett, M.D., M.H.P.E. Lipsett, a professor and director of surgical and critical care fellowship training at Johns Hopkins, says that during the study and before room cleanings, staff were \"wheeling in\" other pieces of equipment so these, too, could be decontaminated by the hydrogen peroxide vapor.\nAs a result of the study and the researchers' recommendation, JHH has purchased two of the Bioquell decontaminating units, which cost more than $40,000 per pair. The devices, already in use at some 20 other hospitals across the country, will be used at Johns Hopkins to decontaminate rooms typically housing high-risk patients under strict isolation precautions because of severe infection with a multiple-drug-resistant organism.\nResearchers say they next plan to study the devices' effectiveness at decontaminating the outside packaging of unused but potentially exposed hospital supplies, which are typically discarded even though their seals remain intact. The research team also wants to coordinate study testing among other hospitals to validate their Johns Hopkins findings. Larger and longer studies may also be planned, to precisely measure and determine how well the devices work against the spread of each hospital superbug. The current study had only sufficient numbers to statistically validate the paired unit's effectiveness against VRE.\nIn addition to Perl and Lipsett, other Johns Hopkins University investigators involved in this study were study lead investigator Catherine Passaretti, M.D.; Nicholas Reich, Ph.D.; Jessica Meyers, M.P.H.; John Shepard, M.B.A.; and Karen Carroll, M.D. Additional study assistance was provided by Jonathan Otter, at Bioquell Inc., and Tracy Ross, at the University of Massachusetts, in Amherst.\nFor additional information, please go to:http://cid.oxfordjournals.org/http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/doctors/results/directory/profile/0008777/Patricia-M-Perl-MDhttp://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/surgery/faculty/Lipsetthttp://www.bioquell.com/products/bioquell-q-10/",

The outlet said the lobbyist was suspected of having ties to Russian intelligence agencies.\nTrump Jr. confirmed to The New York Times he was at that meeting and was promised information that could potentially hurt then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Also there, were his brother-in-law Jared Kushner and his father's then-campaign manager Paul Manafort.\nA man named Rinat Akhmetshin told the Associated Press he's the lobbyist and confirmed he was at the meeting.\nTrump Jr. released the email thread regarding the meeting earlier this week. It shows the president's oldest son was going to meet with an individual described as \"the Russian government attorney,\" but there's no mention of a lobbyist or fifth person who'd also be there.\nAlthough, the lawyer, who denied being connected to the Kremlin, did tell NBC she was accompanied by a man. She didn't give any other details.\nOn Thursday, President Donald Trump defended his son during a press conference in France.\n\"I think from a practical standpoint, most people would have taken that meeting.

        "raw_content": "Energy Europe Power Power Grid Quatre Ltd Renewables Reports Technology Wind Power\nWritten by Nicholas Newman on 12th August 2018\nThis report covers the main issues, challenges and problems that face Europe\u2019s wind power operators as wind farms come to the end of their operating lifespan.\nIn 2017, Europe\u2019s wind-power generating capacity of 169 GW, ranked second after gas and ahead of coal. Whilst onshore installations dominate, there are now over 4,000 offshore wind turbines producing 15.8 GW of grid-connected output. The wind-power sector now has an annual turnover of \u20ac72bn and employs around 330,000.[i] Wind energy accounted for half of all energy investments in Europe during 2017.\nBetween 2017 and 2020 an extra 50 GW of wind-power is forecast to be installed across Europe. And the increasing importance of offshore wind farms can be seen in the fact that 53 are scheduled to come online between 2016 and 2022. By 2030 the EU is expected to have installed 323 GW of wind energy, dominated by onshore turbines generating 253GW and offshore installations generating 70 GW.[ii]\nGermany, Spain, the UK, Italy and France are Europe\u2019s leading wind-power producers. The industry is oligopolistic, with the leading five wind-power developers accounting for 54 percent of all new installed capacity during 2017. EU energy policy and UN climate accords together with generous government subsidies, feed-in-tariffs and priority access to the grid, have underpinned the emergence and take-off of the wind sector.\nCompared with the oil industry, wind generating ownership is short-term since the operating life of a wind farm is just 20 years. Ownership is diverse ranging from the large European utilities and late entrant big oil companies who are responsible for large-scale grid connected plants at one end and the small-scale plants, whose owners include local towns and cities, local co-operatives of farmers and individuals, energy intensive companies such as car manufacturers, retailers and IT companies. Wind-farms are often in the hands of multiple owners and ownership is not static as portions are often farmed out during the lifetime of the project.\nThis free report covers the main issues, challenges and problems that face Europe\u2019s wind power operators as wind farms come to the end of their operating lifespan.\n[i] https://windeurope.org/about-us/new-identity/\n[ii] https://windeurope.org/wp-content/uploads/files/about-wind/reports/Wind-energy-in-Europe-Scenarios-for-2030.pdf\ndecommissioning Europe EUROPE\u2019S WIND-POWER INDUSTRY offshore wind power onshore wind power wind power\nNicnewmanoxford.com > Energy > Wind Power in Europe",

        "raw_content": "Game Boy Advance Frequently Asked Questions\n(This information only applies to the Game Boy Advance. For information on other Nintendo products, such as Game Boy micro and Game Boy Advance SP, click here and select the system you have questions about.)\nWhat is the average battery life?\nHow does the Game Boy Advance interact with the Nintendo GameCube?\nWhich accessories from older Game Boy systems can I use with my Game Boy Advance?\nWhy doesn't the Game Boy Advance use a backlit screen?\nIs there a light accessory for the Game Boy Advance?\nQuestions about the Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter?\nThe average battery life is approximately 15 hours when playing Game Boy Advance games. This is somewhat less when playing Game Boy Color or Game Boy (original) games. Battery life can also vary depending on the Game Pak being used and the volume setting (louder=less play time).\nFor players who play a great deal, a Game Boy Advance AC Adapter might be more economical choice. For information about using rechargeable batteries for portable performance, link here.\nFun Fact: The Game Boy Advance's power light will change from green to red when the battery life is at 30% - 20%.\nIn specially-designed Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance games, the Game Boy Advance can be connected to the Nintendo GameCube with the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Link Cable. Doing so can allow the two systems to exchange data, enable cooperative two-player play, or provide other special functions.\nFor example, players with a copy of Metroid Fusion for the Game Boy Advance can use the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable, and connect to Metroid Prime on the Nintendo GameCube. Doing so will unlock special featues and bonuses.\nThis feature is only available with specially designed Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance games. The Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance software packaging will indicate if this feature is available. Please note that the Game Boy Advance does not work with Nintendo GameCube unless the game developer has specifically integrated this feature into their game.\nFor more information on connecting your systems with the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Link Cable, please link here.\nThe Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Link Cable is available through our Online Store, or by calling our Consumer Service Department at 1-800-255-3700.\nIf you would like to play Game Boy games on your TV, you may be interested in the Game Boy Player. This device attaches to the bottom of your Nintendo GameCube and allows you to play almost any Game Boy game ever made, on your TV! For more information on this product, please visit www.gameboyplayer.com.\nThe following Game Boy and Game Boy Color accessories are compatible with the Game Boy Advance:\nUniversal Game Link Cable\nUniversal Game Link Cable Adapter\nIzek Sewing Machine\nWhen purchasing an accessory for your Game Boy Advance, be sure to look for Nintendo's Official Seal of Quality. This seal is your assurance that the product meets Nintendo's quality assurance guidelines. Unlicensed products are not recommended for use with Nintendo systems.\nWhen Nintendo created the Game Boy Advance, we wanted to provide our consumers with the most powerful hardware at the best possible price. As we've done with all of our earlier Game Boy systems, we decided to use a reflective screen, rather than a backlit screen, for several reasons:\nFlexibility. Reflective screen technology allows users to have greater control over their lighting choices. With a backlit screen, images tend to get washed out and may be difficult to see when viewed outdoors or in well-lit areas. With reflective technology, the brighter the light the better it looks. For low light conditions, players may use overhead lighting or optional light accessories to provide the light they need.\nCost. The use of the reflective screen technology allows Nintendo to offer the Game Boy Advance at a much lower cost than it could have using a similar, backlit screen.\nPortability. Reflective screen technology is the best way to display games on a portable system in terms of cost, screen resolution, colors available and excellent battery life. Other portable systems that have used backlighting required a great deal more power and had a much shorter battery life.\nPerformance. The new Game Boy Advance reflective screen is larger, provides finer detail, and displays a much wider range of colors than any other Game Boy system.",

        "raw_content": "TOP 5 REASONS WHY BUSINESSES FAIL FINANCIALLY\nAs an entrepreneur, our brains are constantly churning. Constantly coming up with ideas on how we can help EVERYONE. Now as great a thing as this may be, it is also not such a great thing. Because it is these ideas that lead us to make mistakes that cause our businesses to fail. Mistakes that we don\u2019t think about until it\u2019s too late. We get so caught up that our eyes and ears are not open to the obvious. We\u2019re so caught up in making it happen that we miss all of the warning signs. And as a result our businesses suffer. They suffer financially and by design.\nBut it doesn\u2019t have to be that way. You can stop going down this spirally road that only leads to financial disaster. In order to stop though, you have to become aware of the reasons why you\u2019re going through financial turmoil. And I think there are five key reasons that rank in the majority. The five reasons are often overlooked due to the sheer excitement of wanting to start your own business. What you have to remember is that excitement alone is not going to make you successful. It takes lots of planning and preparation along with blood, sweat and tears. No one wakes up a success. They planned it and worked hard at it.\nI\u2019m going to share these five reasons that I think are the most critical and I challenge you to take time and sit down and see which ones apply to you. Then take the corrective action and change things before it\u2019s too late.\nHere are the 5 key reasons why businesses fail financially.\n1. No savings / funds. This is probably the number one reason why businesses fail financially. And it\u2019s because, like I said already, of sheer excitement. You MUST have funds to start a business. A savings that you began many years ago; a retirement account or life policy you can draw a loan on; a home equity line; a rich relative. It doesn\u2019t matter the source, just as long as you have a source. These funds need to be enough to carry you for 12-24 months at a minimum. The longer the better. Keep in mind that it takes time to build a business. It doesn\u2019t happen overnight. So make sure you can provide a lifestyle while you building this business. It doesn\u2019t have to be the \u201clavish lifestyle\u201d you currently live and more than likely it won\u2019t be. Just be sure you can pay your household bills and put food on the table.\n2. No business plan. This is the one element of a business that no one wants to do. Yet it is the most needed. You need a business plan to be able to help you have a clear understanding as to what you want your business to be, how you want it to grow and who you\u2019re going to serve. And this is only the beginning. It will no doubt tell you and any potential investor a whole lot more. This business plan will serve as the roadmap and guide for how to take you business from a caterpillar to a butterfly.\n3. No clients. Now this one was a no brainer. But I want to touch on because I want to point out that, yes it\u2019s important to get new clients when you are starting you business but it\u2019s even more important to keep those clients. Your daily goal should be not only how to get new clients but also how to keep your current clients. There is nothing more rewarding than knowing that you have a base of clients who not only continue to use your services and products but who are also raving fans and will refer you to the world.\n4. No systems / structure in place. Every successful business has a system in place. A system that everyone in the business from the owner to the lowest man on the totem pole follows. This system creates synergy within the business that leads to nothing but pure abundance. Having a tried and true system to follow allows you to operate your business more efficiently and effectively. Think about McDonalds, Starbucks and Chic-fil-a. No matter which one in the world you visit, the system remains the same.\n5. Not understanding the numbers. This reason why businesses fail financially is probably the least recognized. Many business owners and entrepreneurs start a business and never take the time to learn how to understand it and manage it on paper. The can manage the daily operations of their business beyond measure. But when asked what their profit margin is they respond with a \u201chuh?\u201d When asked how their business is trending compared to prior years they ask \u201cwhat\u2019s trending?\u201d Understanding the numbers of your business tells you more than how much cash is in the bank. It tells you where you money is being spent and how your business is truly being financed. It helps you strategize on where and how to make improvements.\nWhat is causing your business to fail financially? What changes are you going to make to turn things around?\nTags: business successempower 2 thrivefinancial controlfinancial managementfinancial success\nPreviousPrevious post:WHAT\u2019S IN YOUR TOOLBOX?NextNext post:4 KEY FINANCIAL FUNDAMENTALS OF BUSINESS",

        "raw_content": "William Jefferson case will always be remembered for cash in the freezer\nUpdated May 3, 2018 at 6:01 PM ; Posted August 5, 2009 at 9:35 PM\nWilliam Jefferson's federal corruption trial will forever and always be remembered as the one about the guy with the cash in his freezer.\nBut in the end, Jefferson was acquitted of Count 11, violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the primary crime directly related to the stash of $100 bills the FBI found packed away between boxes of Boca burgers and Pillsbury pie crust in his Capitol Hill townhouse four years ago this week.\nCharges against Jefferson; history of his case\nIf that single count were all there was to the corruption case against him, the former nine-term congressman from New Orleans would have walked out of the Alexandria, Va., courthouse Wednesday evening a free man instead of being found guilty on 11 other charges.\nAccording to legal observers and the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, where the case was tried, the freezer money was the single most powerful evidence they presented, even if it did not directly lead to a conviction, suggesting that it may have left the jury with such a bad impression of Jefferson that it helped convict him on other bribery counts.\nFBI PhotoThe cold cash\nAs U.S. Attorney Dana Boente put it at a news conference in front of the courthouse just after the verdict was announced, \"$90,000 in a freezer is not a gray area. It is a violation and today a jury of the congressman's peers held him guilty.\"\nAsked a moment later what he considered the most powerful evidence presented over the course of the six-week government case, Boente returned to the money in the freezer. \"We always thought that a powerful piece of evidence was $90,000 in the freezer.\"\nConsidering the outcome, Jonathan Turley, a George Washington University law professor, found Boente's comment jarring.\n\"I think the most interesting thing to come out of this case is the statement of the U.S. attorney after the trial. His statement that the cash in the freezer was the most important evidence is unbelievably telling and unbelievably troubling,\" said Turley, because it suggests that the elaborate presentation at the trial of the photographs of the money in Jefferson's freezer was primarily intended to \"prejudice the jury\" against Jefferson, and that they succeeded.\nIt is not clear from the jury verdict whether the freezer money was a factor in the jury finding the former congressman guilty of Count 1, which reads \"conspiracy to solicit bribes, deprive citizens of honest services by wire fraud and violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.\" The law only requires that the jury find the defendant guilty on two out of three of those counts -- solicit bribes, deprive honest services and violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act-- and in announcing the verdict, the deputy clerk did not specify which counts the jury agreed on. It may or may not have included conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.\n\"The jury could have viewed the money taken from the car and put in the freezer as the overt act necessary to further the conspiracy,\" said Robert Facundus, a Washington attorney who teaches a course on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act at Tulane Law School.\nBut Facundus said that regardless of their direct application to the Foreign Corrupt Practices charges, the photos of the freezer money, and the equally damning videotape, from four different angles, of Jefferson, days earlier, accepting a briefcase full of cash from Lori Mody, a cooperating witness for the FBI, \"were probably the most memorable pieces of evidence presented at trial.\"\n\"Although specifically related to the FCPA counts, those images likely influenced the jurors while they were analyzing all the counts,\" he said.\nJefferson was the first public official charged under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits payments to foreign officials to gain special favor for business deals abroad.\nThe $90,000 in marked bills was the lion's share of $100,000 in cash that Mody, a Virginia businesswoman, had given Jefferson a few days earlier, stuffed in a briefcase, in a parking lot of the Ritz Carlton in Pentagon City, Va., just outside D.C.\nMody was seeking Jefferson's help with a telecommunications deal in West Africa, and according to the government, and suggestive comments on the tapes she secretly recorded of her conversations with Jefferson, she was giving Jefferson the cash to bribe Atiku Abubakar, then vice president of Nigeria, to gain his help in greasing the skids for the deal.\nTrout argued that Jefferson accepted the money from Mody, who he found to be emotionally needy and unstable, to placate her, that he never intended to bribe Abubakar, and that he stowed the dough in his freezer to keep it safe while he was away in New Orleans for the August congressional recess.\nThe same day the FBI raided Jefferson's homes in D.C. and New Orleans, it raided the Abubakar residence in suburban Potomac, Md., expecting to find the money there. Instead it was in on ice in Jefferson's house.\nTo violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, as Judge T.S. Ellis III instructed the jury, a person need only plan or promise to pay the bribe money, not actually deliver it.\nBut to convict Jefferson on the Foreign Corrupt Practices charge, they had to believe him when he indicated to Mody he was planning to bribe Abubakar.\nSaid Facundus, \"My guess is that one element that gave the jury the most trouble is whether or not Jefferson ever actually offered an improper payment to the former VP of Nigeria, directly or through a third party. The jury never heard direct evidence of what Jefferson and the former VP discussed in the Potomac home of the former VP.\n\"It was probably difficult for the jury to be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that he ever made an offer to bribe the former VP,\" said Facundus. \"Without directly saying it, I think the defense alluded to possibility that Jefferson took the money from Mody and planned to keep it for himself.\"\nAnd if they believe that Jefferson was simply ripping off Mody, they had a duty, on that count at least, to acquit.",

Strictly speaking, a divorce filing is something that involves just the spouses. But when other factors are considered, the potential list of affected people grows.\nIf children are in the picture, support, custody and visitation have to be addressed. Grandparents might believe they have access to grandchildren that is not acknowledged by law. Their rights may need upholding.\nProperty division standards require equitable distribution of assets and debts under Louisiana law. But if one of the spouses is in the military, division of benefits can get complicated.\nDomestic violence situations can create unique issues. Divorce might not be sought, but the law still can intervene, especially if the best interests of children are in question.\nClaims of paternity can result in someone being brought into court to face obligations they never anticipated. Alternatively, if the parent of a child is denied rights, he or she deserves representation.\nThe scope of the law is broad.

        "raw_content": "Archives|Shizuo Kakutani, 92, Dies; Known For Math Tools\nShizuo Kakutani, 92, Dies; Known For Math Tools\nBy SARA ROBINSON AUG. 18, 2004\nShizuo Kakutani, a mathematician known for fundamental tools that have come to bear his name and that are used in disparate fields including economics, died yesterday in New Haven. He was 92 and lived in Hamden, Conn.\nHis death was announced by his daughter, Michiko.\nA professor at Yale for 33 years, Dr. Kakutani was known to mathematicians for his influential work in the fields of ergodic theory, functional analysis and probability theory. To economists, he was known for a mathematical tool used to prove theorems about social systems.\nIn a discipline famous for people who work in isolation, Dr. Kakutani was remarkable for his gregariousness. Most of his research was done in collaboration with others, and groups of active researchers tended to form around him.\n''He didn't like to travel far, so people would come to him,'' said Jal Choksi, an emeritus professor at McGill University in Montreal and a member of Dr. Kakutani's circle .\nThe tool he developed, known as the Kakutani fixed-point theorem, was a key step in the original proof of the existence of Nash equilibria, the theorem for which John Forbes Nash received his Nobel Prize. Dr. Kakutani's theorem is also used to prove a famous 1954 theorem by the economists Kenneth J. Arrow and G\u00e9rard Debreu, which says that there are prices for goods that balance supply and demand in a complex economy. Both economists also won Nobel Prizes, partly for this work.\nIn the mathematical specialty ergodic theory, a fundamental tool is called the Kakutani skyscraper. Used to describe a random process, like coin flipping, for example, the skyscraper is a way of organizing the process into a picture, with levels that look like the floors of an office tower. This picture makes it easier to understand the properties of the process. In the case of coin flipping, tossing the coin corresponds to ascending one floor in the skyscraper.\nDr. Kakutani was born in 1911 in Osaka, Japan. Following the wishes of his father, a respected lawyer, Dr. Kakutani initially studied literature and the arts. Eventually, his father gave him permission to study mathematics, and he attended Tohoku University in Sendai and, in 1934, became a teaching assistant in the mathematics department at Osaka University. There, he joined a lively group of young mathematicians who started a newsletter that became influential in Japanese mathematics.\nDr. Kakutani's work caught the attention of Herman Weyl, a professor at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton who in 1940 invited him for a two-year visit. While at the institute, Dr. Kakutani participated in seminars run by Weyl and John von Neumann, activities that led to some of Dr. Kakutani's best-known work .\nDuring the war years, Dr. Kakutani returned to Japan, where he became a professor at Osaka University and continued to publish. In 1948, he returned to the institute, and he was appointed a professor at Yale in 1949. While at Yale, Dr. Kakutani, a popular teacher, again became the center of a group of mathematicians who would meet frequently to work on research.\nIn 1982, Mr. Kakutani received the Imperial Award of the Academy of Japan for his achievements and service to mathematics.\nIn addition to his daughter Michiko, the chief book critic of The New York Times, he is survived by his wife of 52 years, the former Keiko Kay Uchida.\nA version of this obituary; biography appears in print on August 18, 2004, on Page A00021 of the National edition with the headline: Shizuo Kakutani, 92, Dies; Known For Math Tools.

        "raw_content": "DealBook|Tronc Sells The Los Angeles Times to Local Billionaire for $500 Million\nTronc Sells The Los Angeles Times to Local Billionaire for $500 Million\nAfter decades of corporate control, The Los Angeles Times will once again come under local ownership.CreditCreditMario Anzuoni/Reuters\nJournalists at The Los Angeles Times have repeatedly clashed with their Chicago-based parent company, Tronc. So when they heard that a local billionaire was closing in on a deal to buy the newspaper, many of them cheered. Someone even popped a bottle of champagne.\nOn Wednesday, it was official: The Los Angeles Times was being sold to Patrick Soon-Shiong, a health care mogul and former surgeon, for $500 million.\nThe deal includes The Times\u2019s sibling paper, The San Diego Union-Tribune, and smaller publications in the California News Group. The deal, with Dr. Soon-Shiong\u2019s private investment arm, Nant Capital, also includes the assumption of $90 million in pension liabilities.\nThe agreement \u2014 which Tronc announced early on Wednesday, when many Times employees were still in bed \u2014 brings to a close a tumultuous period marked by the ouster of top leaders, the suspension of the newspaper\u2019s publisher and a contentious unionization effort.\nIn recent months, the frustration in the Times newsroom erupted into public view, as The New York Times, HuffPost and other news outlets published articles on the tensions between staff and management at the 136-year-old newspaper.\nWith The Times receiving national attention for reasons having nothing to do with its exemplary coverage of sexual harassment in Hollywood or the natural disasters in its backyard, Tronc had a public-relations problem just as it was trying to develop new strategies for producing and distributing its journalism.\nThe sale, which is expected to be completed in the coming weeks, would leave The Times under local ownership for the first time since the Chandler family sold the Times Mirror Company to a Tronc predecessor, the Tribune Company, in 2000. The entry of Dr. Soon-Shiong would end a period of corporate control that included severe layoffs, cost cuts and, for a time, a frat house culture in its top ranks.\nBy agreeing to sell the paper, Tronc also seems to be retreating from the national and international ambitions the company entertained after Michael W. Ferro Jr. became its chairman and biggest shareholder two years ago.\n\u201cWe are pleased to transition leadership of The Los Angeles Times and The San Diego Union-Tribune to local ownership,\u201d Justin Dearborn, Tronc\u2019s chief executive, said in a statement. \u201cWe are certain that the journalistic excellence in Southern California will continue long into the future.\u201d\nIf the sale has come as a relief to Tronc executives and Times journalists alike, it leaves Dr. Soon-Shiong with the unenviable task of owning a major daily paper at a time when the newspaper business is increasingly reliant on the support of deep-pocketed patrons. With the purchase, he would become the latest wealthy businessman to take ownership of a struggling newspaper in a big city, following Jeff Bezos with The Washington Post, John Henry with The Boston Globe and Sheldon Adelson with The Las Vegas Review-Journal.\n\u201cWe look forward to continuing the great tradition of award-winning journalism carried out by the reporters and editors of The Los Angeles Times, The San Diego Union-Tribune and the other California News Group titles,\u201d Dr. Soon-Shiong said in a statement on Wednesday.\nDr. Soon-Shiong \u2014 who grew up the son of Chinese immigrants in apartheid South Africa and largely made his fortune selling generic medicines and developing a new cancer drug \u2014 became a major Tronc shareholder and vice chairman two years ago as part of the company\u2019s effort to stave off a takeover attempt by Gannett, the publisher of USA Today. In a 2016 interview with The New York Times, Dr. Soon-Shiong said he considered newspapers a \u201cpublic trust.\u201d But his relationship with Mr. Ferro soon deteriorated, leading to Dr. Soon-Shiong\u2019s removal from Tronc\u2019s board last year.\nHe takes over one of the most decorated newspapers in the country, with 44 Pulitzer Prizes. But The Times has struggled in recent years as newspapers across the country have lost heft and cultural importance.\nLast decade, the paper weathered the cost-slashing reign of Samuel Zell, who took Tribune Company into bankruptcy. In 2014, after emerging from bankruptcy proceedings, the company spun off its newspaper division, creating Tribune Publishing.\nWhen Mr. Ferro, a Chicago entrepreneur and a former owner of The Chicago Sun-Times, took a major stake in Tribune Publishing in 2016, he introduced grand plans that included the use of artificial intelligence. He also rebranded the company as Tronc, which stood for Tribune online content, a name that has gotten laughs in newsrooms ever since. (The brand name appears formally as tronc, in lowercase letters, in company statements.)\nThe Times, with bureaus in cities including Lagos and Rio de Janeiro, was to be the linchpin of Tronc\u2019s global ambitions. But over the past year the paper proved too much to handle. In August, Tronc ousted top members of the Times management team, including Davan Maharaj, its editor and publisher, and installed the former Yahoo executive Ross Levisohn as publisher. Lewis D\u2019Vorkin, a former chief product officer at Forbes, later joined the paper as editor in chief.\nEditors and reporters had hope for their new leaders, but the relationship quickly soured. After a recording of a staff meeting was leaked to The New York Times in the fall, Mr. D\u2019Vorkin chastised employees, calling anyone involved in the leak \u201cmorally bankrupt.\u201d Newsroom tensions rose.\nLast month, on the day when journalists at the paper celebrated their first successful unionization vote since its founding in 1881, Mr. Levinsohn was placed on leave after National Public Radio reported that he had been accused of sexual harassment at two previous jobs. Morale sank further with the suspension of the Times business editor Kimi Yoshino.\nTo calm the discord, Tronc last week replaced Mr. D\u2019Vorkin with Jim Kirk, a former publisher and editor of The Sun-Times, who had joined Tronc in August.\nTronc said on Wednesday that its investigation into the publisher, Mr. Levinsohn, had found no wrongdoing. He will remain at the company in a new role: chief executive of a newly formed division called Tribune Interactive.\nDespite the tensions between the staff and Tronc leadership over the past year, Times reporters distinguished themselves with an investigation into the former dean of the medical school at the University of Southern California and their coverage of The Walt Disney Company\u2019s ties to the city of Anaheim.\n\u201cOur readers expect and deserve the high-quality, independent journalism that has defined The Times for decades,\u201d The Times Guild steering committee said in a statement. \u201cThe L.A. Times Guild looks forward to working with a local owner who can help us preserve The Times as a guardian of our community and as the voice of the American West.\u201d\nInside The Times, there is hope that the paper might pursue a business model similar to those at The New York Times and The Washington Post, which have seen increases in paid subscriptions. But the future remains murky. The publisher job is open, and it was not immediately clear if Dr. Soon-Shiong plans to name a new top editor in place of Mr. Kirk.\nDr. Soon-Shiong, a part owner of the Los Angeles Lakers, has a fortune that Forbes estimates at some $8 billion, but he is not so well known as some of the city\u2019s other billionaires, including David Geffen and Eli Broad, whose names have surfaced in the past as potential buyers of The Times.\nDr. Soon-Shiong, who donated to Hillary Clinton\u2019s presidential campaign and met with Donald J. Trump when he was the president-elect, has also come under scrutiny for his medical research and business dealings, leaving the Times newsroom with a new potential problem: an owner who is himself a newsworthy figure.\nAt first glance, though, Dr. Soon-Shiong represents a welcome alternative to Tronc, whose scattershot plans have baffled some media analysts.\n\u201cTheir future under Tronc was just going to lurch from one crisis to the next, because Tronc\u2019s strategy was so opaque and the quality of leadership they brought aboard was so dismal,\u201d said Bill Grueskin, a professor at the Columbia Journalism School and a former top editor at Bloomberg News and The Wall Street Journal. \u201cAlmost anything has to be better than what they were facing.\u201d\nFollow Sydney Ember on Twitter: @melbournecoal.\nA version of this article appears in print on , on Page A17 of the New York edition with the headline: Sale of Los Angeles Times After Months of Turmoil Curbs Tronc\u2019s Ambitions.

        "raw_content": "The Ultimate Guide To Starting A Fire In The Rain\nWritten by: Rich M Extreme Survival 3 Comments Print This Article\nIt might be my imagination, but it seems that emergencies always bring bad weather along with them. Just when you need some sunshine and cool breezes, you end up with cold, rain and high wind. When that happens, survival becomes all that much more complicated \u2014 especially the critical need of starting a fire.\nAny survival instructor will tell you that you should carry at least two primary and two secondary means of starting a fire. That\u2019s good advice, especially considering that those fire starters may not always work. If you\u2019re dealing with inclement weather, you probably won\u2019t be able to start your fire with one match. Oh, and if it\u2019s cold out, your butane lighter isn\u2019t going to work, anyway.\nOther than starting a fire in the middle of an ocean, the worst situation I can think of to start a fire is when it is cold and windy. That\u2019s not the ideal circumstances that most of us had when we went through survival training. So let\u2019s see what we need, in order to make a fire in those circumstances.\nThe Right Location for the Fire\nThe first thing necessary is a good location. In bad weather it\u2019s important to provide the fire with as much shelter as possible. That means three things: shelter from wind, shelter from rain, and shelter from ground water.\nDepending upon where you are, wind might be a real serious problem for your fire. Sheltering it just on the upwind side may not be enough. In many cases, you need someplace that will shelter it on as many sides as possible. If all you do is shelter it on the upwind side, then the windbreak stops the wind from hitting the fire directly, but then the air comes in from the sides. To avoid this, make the windbreak C shaped, with the open side of the C being downwind.\nShelter from the rain is the hardest of all, because you still have to leave someplace for the smoke to escape. The old Indian teepees had a smoke hole at the peak, which was opened and adjusted by moving two poles.\nOne way to get shelter from the rain is to build your fire under a tree. Evergreen trees form a fairly good natural tent, if you pick a big one and crawl under the lowest branches. Some of these can be cut off, without diminishing the quality of the shelter that the tree provides. Make sure that you leave enough branches in place so that the outer edges of the branches still touch the ground.\nThere is an inherent risk in making a fire under a tree, but if you keep your fire under control, that risk can be minimized. It can also be minimized by creating a good fire pit, where there is nothing combustible around the fire, except the fuel that is being burned.\nThis brings us to the third requirement for the location, that it be protected from groundwater. The easiest way to do this is to build a fire pit where the floor is raised off the ground by a layer of rocks. That will keep the coals from being directly on the wet ground, help keep the fire from spreading and make sure that any running or pooling water from the rain doesn\u2019t put out the fire.\nFinding Dry Kindling and Fuel\nTrying to start a fire with wet wood is almost impossible. There are ways, which we will get into in a minute, but you\u2019re much better off if you can find something dry to burn, especially for getting your fire started.\nTypically, a fire is started in three stages; tinder, kindling and fuel. The tinder has to be something which will catch fire quickly and easily. The kindling is pieces of wood that are about the diameter of a finger, which can be easily lit from the tinder. Once that it going, it can be used to start the actual fuel for the fire burning.\nIf you are traveling with your bug-out bag, you should have some tinder in it. There are articles all over the Internet of ways of making your own fire-starters. These are basically all forms of tinder. Two of the best ones for starting a fire with wet wood are dryer lint mixed with paraffin and cotton balls soaked in petroleum jelly. Both of these burn for a couple of minutes, allowing them plenty of time to get a fire started. In a minute, I\u2019ll tell you about an even better one.\nEven in the rainstorm there is usually dry kindling around, although it might not be very obvious. Remember the pine tree that I was talking about a minute ago? You can almost always find a number of dry, dead branches under the bottom of those pine trees, even in the midst of a rainstorm. Another great place to look is the underside of dead or uprooted trees. While the top side may be wet from the storm, the bottom may still be dry. Cut or break off bark, branches and wood from the bottom side of these trees to get your dry kindling.\nFinding dry fuel may be even harder, but you can look in the same places that you looked for the kindling. Your fuel doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be as dry as your kindling, as you will have some heat from the kindling to start drying out the fuel.\nThe Best Fire Starter for Wet Wood\nIn addition to the cotton balls and dryer lint, there\u2019s another type of fire starter you can make, which will burn hot enough to actually dry out the wood and get a fire going. This is made of black powder gunpowder and nail polish remover.\nYou need to use black powder and not modern smokeless powder because it burns slower. The idea isn\u2019t to make something that burns fast, but rather to make something that burns hot. The nail polish remover you use needs to be the oily type and must contain acetone. The acetone acts as a solvent for the black powder.\nIt Is Safe, Will Burn On Snow, In Rain & In 30 MPH Winds, All Natural Fuel\u2026\nI would recommend wearing rubber gloves while doing this, even though I have done it without gloves on. It is hard to clean the dissolved black powder off your fingers when it hardens. Test the gloves with a little bit of the nail polish remover, to ensure that they won\u2019t melt.\nTo make the fire starter, start with a small mound of black powder in a bowl; about an equivalent quantity as the size of a golf ball or ping-pong ball. Pour the nail polish remover over it, so that the black powder is totally covered. Immediately begin mixing the two together with your gloved fingers, forming putty out of it. Once in a putty-like state, the excess nail polish remover can be poured off.\nKnead the putty, just like kneading bread; folding it over time after time. The idea is to make the putting into hundreds of layers, so that the burn rate can be controlled. The more layers you can have, the better.\nThe finished putty should be formed into a ball and stored in an airtight container. These will dry out with time, so check them periodically. You want to use them when they are wet, not dry. Dry ones burn too fast.\nA golf ball of ping-pong sized ball of this putty will burn at over 3,000 degrees for about 3-1/2 minutes. You can break that ball down into smaller chunks if you want, but they won\u2019t burn as long. Nevertheless, it burns hot enough and long enough that it will dry out damp wood and get it started burning. With this sort of fire starter, you are prepared to start fires in even the worst of conditions.\nUsing Accelerants\nOne final consideration that I\u2019d like to leave you with is the use of accelerants. These are common chemicals that burn readily. Gasoline is a common accelerant, as well as paint thinner, turpentine and alcohol.\nIf you have your car with you, there\u2019s nothing saying you can\u2019t siphon out a little bit of gasoline from the tank, and throw it on your damp wood to get it started. While that may not get you any style points, it will get you a burning fire to keep you warm.\ncold fire fire starter fuel kindling rain shelter starting a fire in wet weather starting a fire when it\u2019s raining survival tinder wet\nPrevious: Dick\u2019s Ends AR-15 Ban By Selling Them At Spinoff Store\nNext: Military Voice Opinion Through Pics: \u2018I Didn\u2019t Join To Fight For Al Qaeda In Syrian Civil War\u2019",

        "raw_content": "Mr W and The Department of Justice and Equality\nWhether the Department was justified in refusing the applicant's request for copies of certain documents which the applicant supplied to the Department in support of his application for residency, on the ground that the records sought do not exist or cannot be found\nThe applicant submitted a request to the Department on 17 June 2016 for copies of all documents that it held on file and which had been considered in relation to his application for residency in the State in 2005/2006. On 12 August 2016, the Department informed the applicant that it was granting the request and it released a total of 19 records.\nOn 19 August 2016, the applicant sought an internal review of that decision on the ground that he had not received all relevant records. Specifically, he stated that he was seeking photocopies of the following original records that he and his wife had forward to the Department in 2005 during the processing of his residency application:\n- birth certificates for the applicant and his wife,\n- his wife's contract of employment and P60,\n- his temporary residence certificate, and\n- a rent book belonging to the applicant and his wife.\nOn 8 September 2016, the Department affirmed its decision. In its decision, the Department stated that the relevant original documents had been returned after his application for residency was granted and that no photocopies were made of the documents before they were returned. On 19 September 2016, the applicant sought a review by this Office of the Department's decision in respect of photocopies of the rent book, his wife's contract of employment and her P60.\nDuring the course of this review, the Department provided this Office with information regarding the applicable record management policy and the searches conducted to locate the records sought by the applicant. Ms Buckley of this Office provided the applicant with details of those searches by telephone on 10 November 2016. She also informed the applicant of her view that the Department was justified in deciding that the records sought did not exist or could not be found. As the applicant has indicated that he requires a formal decision on the matter, I consider it appropriate to conclude this review by means of a formal, binding decision.\nIn carrying out my review, I have had regard to the correspondence between the Department and the applicant as set out above. I have also had regard to the communications between this Office and both the applicant and the Department on the matter.\nThis review is solely concerned with whether the Department was justified in its decision to refuse the applicant's request for photocopies of the rent book and his wife's contract of employment and P60, which were supplied to the Department during the processing of his residency application in 2005, on the ground that these records do not exist or cannot be found.\nUpon receipt of the applicant's FOI request, the Department wrote to the applicant and informed him that it had decided to extend the time limit for issuing a decision by four weeks under section 14 of the Act. Under section 14, an FOI body may extend the period for considering a request by up to four weeks if it considers that the request relates to such number of records, or the number of other FOI requests relating to the same information or records that have been made to it is such, that compliance with the four week time limit is not reasonably possible. No such circumstances appear to have arisen in this case. Rather, it appears that the Department simply decided to extend the time frame for considering the request. Given that the Department has been subject to the FOI regime for the past 18 years, this is unacceptable. I expect the Department to ensure that any future extensions of the time limits for issuing decisions are strictly in accordance with the provisions of the FOI Act.\nSection 15(1)(a) of the FOI Act provides that a request for access to record may be refused if the records do not exist or cannot be found after all reasonable steps to ascertain their whereabouts have been taken. The Commissioner's role in cases such as this is to review the decision of the FOI body and to decide whether that decision was justified. This means that I must have regard to the evidence available to the decision maker and the reasoning used by the decision maker in arriving at his/her decision and also must assess the adequacy of the searches conducted by the FOI body in looking for relevant records. The evidence in search cases consists of the steps actually taken to search for records, along with miscellaneous other evidence about the record management practices of the FOI body, on the basis of which the decision maker concluded that the steps taken to search for records were reasonable.\nIn a submission to this Office, the Department provided details of the applicable record management policy and details of the searches conducted to locate the records sought by the applicant. As outlined above, Ms Buckley of this Office has already provided the applicant with these details. In summary, the Department stated that while the current policy in the Residence Unit is for photocopies of original documents to be made before the documents are returned to applicants and for these copies to kept on file, the Department was unable to say with certainty what the policy was in 2005/2006 when the applicant's application for residency was processed and granted. In an effort to locate the records sought by the applicant, the Department stated that it manually searched the applicant's file and linked files. The Department noted that a search of linked files established that no other parts of the Department were dealing with the applicant at the same time and, as such, no copies of the relevant documents would have been forwarded to other units. It also stated that an electronic search was carried-out for other files relating to the applicant, however, no other files could be located.\nThe Department stated that while photocopies of some original documents submitted in support of the application for residency were located on the applicant's file, including copies of his P60 and payslips, passports for the applicant and his wife, and the couple's marriage certificate, the specific records sought could not be located. While it stated that it could not be certain, the Department suggested that the reason these documents were copied and retained on file, and those sought were not, may have been due to the fact that the application for residency was from the applicant and that copies of his documents, and not those of his wife, may have been retained for future reference.\nWhile it is unfortunate that the Department cannot locate the records sought, I am satisfied, having regard to the details of the searches conducted as outlined above, that it has taken all reasonable steps to locate the records sought by the applicant. I find, therefore, that the Department was justified in its decision to refuse the applicant's request for access to the records sought on the ground that they do not exist or cannot be found after all reasonable steps have been taken to ascertain their whereabouts.",

        "raw_content": "Ben & Jerry's Peanut Butter & Cookies Ice Cream\nLabels: ben_n_jerrys, container, Nick, nutty, review, walmart\n[By Nick, New for 2016] While Dubba has been able to find both the new Ben & Jerry's cores and their new vegan line, I was finally able to find something new from them as well!\nwith Chocolate Sandwich Cookies & a Crunchy Peanut Butter Swirl\nWhat we have here is the latest exclusive to good old Wal-Mart. Now I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure I pitched this flavor combo to one of the flavor gurus while I was in Vermont last year. I mean, it sounds like something I'd want made at least. There's their wonderful sweet cream ice cream, their perfect crunchy peanut butter swirl and of course the classic chocolate sandwich cookies. On paper, this one has a lot going in its favor.\nThe looks aren't all that impressive to be honest. I mean, it looks like cookies and cream with a slight peanut butter swirl. Not so shockingly, that's how it tastes.\nThe sweet cream base is a sleeper in B&J's arsenal. It's a shame they don't use it more. It's sweet milkiness just goes so well with mix-ins, expecially the cookies. With those two combined, this one makes for a delicious classic cookies & cream. It has the flavor of milk dunked oreos and what can you hate about that? Nothing, that's what.\nWhere I was disappointed with this one was the crunchy peanut butter swirl. There's needs to be more of it, way more. The peanut butter flavor isn't too consistent. Some bites you'll get a decent amount of flavor with the rest of the ice cream but others you'll get none. With everything combined, this ice cream is one of Ben & Jerry's best. The swirl adds a nutty, saltiness that works with the sweetness of the base and the slight bittery cocoa flavor from the cookies. It's just the bites with no peanut butter are too frequent.\nIf this had more peanut butter, I could see it locking a spot in my Top 3. As is, I'd say it's one of the better store exclusives and possibly in my Top 15. I'll have to get another pint and see if there's a better peanut butter quanity in it. If you've tried it, I'd love to hear about you experience in the comments!\nVerdict? Cookies and Cream with a hint of peanut butter\nBuy Again? Yeah, it's not bad but not as good as it could be\nDubba's Note: I finally grabbed a pint of this and it too was fairly lacking in peanut butter, at least visually. I say it that way because there was always a mild unlying peanut butter vibe to every bite. That said, this one just didn't click for me. There was just an oddness to the way the pb almost undercut that familiar C&C flavor I know and love. Had their been way more peanut butter, yeah, this would be unique. As is, I'd stick with the original.\nI actually didn't enjoy it because I could only taste peanut butter and wanted more cookies and cream flavor.\nI was actually eating some while I read the review. I had a few spoonfuls earlier, but wasn't really impressed. My pint has huge cookie chunks; I just ran into a cookie chunk that was about 3/4 the size of a whole cookie! I love chunky mix-ins, but there was not enough peanut butter for me. I found myself digging around in the pint to get some more of it.\nI just wanted to come back and take back my request for you to review Ben & Jerry's new Coconuts for Caramel Core ice cream flavor. I just finished a pint (don't judge me), and while it tasted JUST like a Samoa and I really enjoyed it, it definitely was not even comparable to some of their other flavors. After a while it got boring and I began missing big chunks of mix-ins (cookie pieces would have been awesome). It also wasn't really all that sweet, definitely one of their more subtle flavors. Also, the core slowly disappeared about halfway through which was disappointing. Glad I had a chance to try it, but I wouldn't suggest you waste your time on it! Get out there and try some of those new ones! I feel like so many companies released a ton of new flavors!",

(Johnny Nguyen/Special to The Oregonian)\nA deadly crash on the northern coast of California has brought renewed attention to a 2014 photo of a tearful embrace between a Portland police officer and a then-12-year-old boy, who is now missing after the wreck that killed his parents and at least some of his siblings.\nThe photo shows Devonte Hart and Sgt. Bret Barnum hugging during a protest in Portland after a Missouri grand jury declined to indict a Ferguson police officer in the fatal shooting of Michael Brown. Devonte is crying in the photo.\nThe picture, taken by freelance photographer Johnny Nguyen, was taken Nov. 25 toward the beginning of the downtown Portland demonstration. Barnum told The Oregonian/OregonLive he saw Hart holding a sign that said \"Free Hugs,\" called him over to talk, and they shook hands.\nThe boy said he was crying because he was sad about national events, Barnum recalled. He said he told the boy, \"I'm sorry.\" The two continued to talk, and Barnum said he pointed at Hart's sign and asked, \"Hey, can I have one of those?\"\nNguyen, who also hugged Devonte that day, said he initially thought of putting the photo of Devonte and Barnum on Instagram two days after the protest. He then decided to see if The Oregonian/OregonLive would be interested in publishing it to a wider audience. The outlet paid Nguyen for the right to publish the picture.\nBy Nov. 28, the photo had been shared by more than 150,000 users on Facebook and would later go on to be featured on Reddit, ABC News, CBS News, Fox News, NBC's \"Today\" show and other outlets. \"Saturday Night Live\" even mentioned the picture during a sketch.\nNguyen told The Oregonian/OregonLive on Nov. 29 that he felt the photo resonated because it showed \"humanity, hope and positivity.\"\n\"I think, deep down, that's how every human being wants to be,\" he said at the time. \"It's a reflection of where (we) want to go. The photo shows there is humanity left \u2014 there is hope.\"\nThe attention from the photo was overwhelming, the Hart family said, and not all of it was positive.\nPeople emailed them death threats and Jennifer Hart, the boy's mother told The Oregonian/OregonLive that they avoided going out in public for fear that Devonte would be recognized and threatened.\nThe family later moved from Oregon to Washington because of the attention, according to the Mendocino Sheriff's Office, which is aiding in the crash investigation.\n\"I was trying to show peace, that there was a different way to handle it,\" Devonte told The Oregonian/OregonLive when asked why he was giving hugs during the 2014 Portland protest.",

        "raw_content": "Partners Group to finance Seabras-1, the first direct subsea fiber optic cable between New York and S?o Paulo\nPartners Group, the global private markets investment manager, has signed an agreement to invest in the construction of the first direct subsea fiber optic cable between New York, USA, and S?o Paulo, Brazil, on behalf of its clients. Partners Group is providing all of the equity financing for the project, Seabras-1, which is being developed by Seaborn Networks (Seaborn) and has a total project cost of approximately USD 500 million.\nSeabras-1 will use next-generation coherent technology to deliver high-capacity and low latency telecommunications for one of the fastest-growing transoceanic routes in the world, offering point-to-point bandwidth and connectivity services between New York and S?o Paulo. Existing US-Brazil subsea cables carry approximately 65% of all internet, data, and voice traffic between Latin America and the rest of the world.\nThe Seabras-1 cable network should become operational within the next two years and has already sold substantial capacity, including to Microsoft Corporation, which contracted with Seaborn in September 2014 to be a foundational customer on the Seabras-1 network. In addition to Partners Group's equity investment, Natixis has been mandated as sole structuring bank, underwriter, lead arranger and COFACE Facility Agent to provide a fully underwritten USD 270 million in senior secured project debt financing. This debt financing, together with Partners Group's equity investment, represents the full project funding for Seabras-1.\nSeabras-1 is envisaged by Seaborn and Partners Group as the first of a series of independent, carrier-neutral alternative networks providing broadband capacity between nations and serves as a template for the two firms to work together in the future to expand the portfolio.\nLarry Schwartz, Chairman and CEO of Seaborn, states: \"We are delighted that Partners Group shares our vision and goals for the future development of the global communications industry. With a number of additional projects planned, and the evident frustration of the industry with legacy approaches to subsea builds, the current environment is very conducive to our independent cable operator model.\"\nTodd Bright, Managing Director and Head of Americas Private Infrastructure, Partners Group, states: \"Seabras-1 is a key telecommunications infrastructure project for the Americas and will bring tangible benefits to businesses and individuals in Brazil, where it will support the government's objective to increase its national broadband coverage, and also in neighboring countries. In Seaborn, we have found a world class partner, with one of the most experienced management teams in the industry, and we look forward to working with them on this and future projects.\"\nBrandon Prater, Partner and Global Co-Head Private Infrastructure, Partners Group, comments: \"The Seabras-1 project is a great fit with Partners Group's strategy of seeking out opportunities to construct the core infrastructure assets of the future. Telecommunications demand between South America and the US \u2013 and indeed the rest of the world \u2013 is only going to grow in the future and we see huge potential for Seaborn's cable networks.\"",

        "raw_content": "Lately I\u2019ve been toying with these ideas of how we connect, how we provide in the wellness industry, and how we receive wellness care from others. For many practitioners and would-be receipients alike, geography can get in the way of us engaging in the healing work we want to engage with. So, taking my cue from the folks who have successfully launched their programs into online classes and more, I\u2019ve decided to strike out on my own with an innovative solution for us all.\nI\u2019m launching a new kind of coaching program. And I\u2019m doing it through a subscriber-based platform called Patreon. It\u2019s not just any coaching program. I\u2019m specifically focusing this program on how we relate to the planet. In my mind I hear this global desire for this\u2014from other people, from the animals, and certainly from the planet herself too. We are on the brink of global ecological disaster, but concurrently there are so many Earth healers looking for where to begin their work.\nI\u2019m here for us. My program is designed to connect us all\u2014to weave together the healing work, the science, the activism, and the magic being done to love this planet more fully. And I\u2019m doing an online and subscriber-based program because I don\u2019t want to just limit this stuff to what I can accomplish in one-on-one sessions. I want virtually everyone to have access.\nSo head over to Patreon and check my program out. Watch my videos. Comment with your feedback and questions. And when you\u2019re ready, give me a vote of confidence by signing up!\nTogether, I truly believe, we can grow a better world.",

Special meadow seed designs were developed for the Park and as Nigel Dunnett said:\n\u201cWe wanted this to be a demonstration of a whole new approach to the design and management of public landscapes: where ecology and sustainability is at the forefront, combined with a very strong aesthetic.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "September 13, 2018 Opinion \u00bb Science Matters\nOne of the worst words in the dictionary\nEcologist David Suzuki believes that, in a time of environmental crisis, the most obscene word in our language is \"disposable.\"\nMy parents married during the Great Depression. After the 1929 market collapse, people had to learn to make do, help each other out and live on meagre incomes. Those times were seared into my parents' attitudes and values.\nAlthough we were all born and raised in Canada, my family was seen as the enemy during the Second World War. Because of our Japanese ethnicity, the government confiscated our property and incarcerated us in camps deep in the Rockies. When the war ended, we were shipped to Ontario where my parents worked as farm labourers. Winters were cold and I needed a coat, which they bought with their limited resources. I was in a growth spurt and quickly outgrew it, so they passed it on to my twin sister. Half a year later, she had outgrown it so our younger sister inherited it. For years, my parents boasted, \"This coat was so well-made, it lasted through three children!\"\nDurability was a prized attribute of clothing and other products. What's happened since? Would a child today happily wear a well-used hand-me-down? How many parents even think of passing clothing on that way?\nWar pulled the North American economy out of the doldrums, but as it was drawing to an end, politicians worried about how to transition a war economy to peacetime. The answer was delivered by the president's economic advisers: Get Americans to worship at the altar of consumption, they advised, so they buy things, use them and buy more. It worked. Today, 70 per cent of the American economy is based on consumer goods. And where America goes, a world enmeshed in the global economy follows.\nThe 1945 global population of about 2.5 billion has now exploded threefold. This huge consumer group has fed a steep rise in the global economy. To maximize consumption, businesses market products to children, seniors and sectors of the developing world. Holiday celebrations have become sales opportunities, none more than around American Thanksgiving with its Black Friday and now Cyber Monday.\nEverything we consume comes from the Earth and goes back to it. Our home is the biosphere, the zone of air, water and land where all life exists. Many \"resources\" we exploit\u2014air, water, soil, trees, fish\u2014cleanse and replenish themselves. If we use them carefully, we can live in balance. But explosive growth in human numbers, consumption and the economy result in overexploitation and destruction, undermining the planet's life support systems.\nIn this critical moment when our energy decisions hold the key to our species' future, we must rethink our place in the world. That means re-examining our consumer-driven economy with its constant repetition of the need for growth.\nReflecting on the coat that \"went through three kids,\" I wonder about the three Rs\u2014reduce, reuse and recycle\u2014that environmentalists pushed in the 1970s and '80s. Product durability means sales will dry up or at least diminish\u2014not a good strategy in a business cycle demanding growth as the measure of success.\nIn a time of environmental crisis, the most obscene word in our language is \"disposable.\" Disposability implies that something we've finished using disappears. In the biosphere, nothing goes away or disappears. Everything ends up somewhere.\nDuring the 1950s, the phrase \"planned obsolescence\" became a critical element of industrial output to ensure continued markets for everything from buildings to cars. This mentality underpins the very notion of \"fashion.\" Clothing is something we wear to cover up and keep us warm in cold weather and cool in hot. But appealing to people's thirst for novelty clothing epitomizes disposability. Few things flaunt disregard for the environment more than proudly wearing pre-ripped jeans costing hundreds of dollars. Those jeans are a tribute to the need to push unnecessary product onto easily manipulated consumers.\nThe planet is overrun with an insatiable predator, humankind. As we run out of places to dump our wastes, cities are reducing the waste stream by banning disposables such as plastic dishware, cutlery and bags. This is a first step to re-examining our unsustainable ways and the need to rediscover values of frugality and thoughtfulness about our place on Earth. Let's start by teaching our children that \"disposable\" is a bad word.\nDavid Suzuki is a scientist, broadcaster, author and co-founder of the David Suzuki Foundation.",

More than 400 officers will be on duty, triple the number on a normal Sunday.\nMayor Ed Lee is also suggesting that bars limit liquor sales, or at the very least serve alcohol responsibly. But officials say the city doesn't plan to ban hard alcohol.\n\"(I want) to suggest that they serve something (other) than heavy alcohol during times of celebration,\" Lee told reporters. \"Inebriation sometimes doesn't help with people who want to maybe go beyond the bounds of acceptability in their celebration.\"\nJ.J. Bishop, a bartender at Nova Bar and Restaurant located about two blocks from where baseball's world champion Giants play at AT&T Park, told The Associated Press on Friday he understands the mayor's position.\n\"It's a wise thing for him to ask the establishments to keep an eye on alcohol consumption,\" Bishop, 47, said. \"I plan on telling my fellow bartenders about what he said. Of course, it's definitely something to keep in mind.\"\nAfter the Niners won the NFC Championship Game on Sunday, police arrested a dozen people \u2014 a majority for public intoxication \u2014 during rowdy celebrations mostly in the city's Mission district.\nLee also added that he and Police Chief Greg Suhr, prior to the Super Bowl, will visit that area and others hit hard by vandalism and destruction after the Giants clinched the World Series in October. About three-dozen people were arrested during postgame celebrations that got out of control when revelers overturned cars, set bonfires, destroyed property and torched a city bus.\n\"You'll see me very visible in those areas myself preceding the game,\" Lee said. \"I'm going to walk those corridors again and reassure all the small business owners, merchants and the residents that we're going to do every possible to keep our city safe.\"\nThere also will be no public large-screen viewing of the Feb. 3 game in the Civic Center similar to when the Giants won the World Series. The National Football League rejected the idea due to broadcast copyright laws.\n\"Probably a business decision on their part,\" Lee said. \"We'll respect it. I would love to have that opportunity because it could help us center maybe some of the celebrations, but we're going to keep the city safe.\"\nAlso, police and transit officials say that will have more diesel buses instead of electric buses that can easily be redirected through large crowds.\nThe city will also pick up trash from dumpsters to prevent any fires and there will be street closures beginning the Saturday before the big game, officials said.\nBishop said he remembers seeing the destruction after the Giants won its title three months ago.\n\"It was a pretty crazy scene. I saw a lot of garbage cans in ashes on the way home. There wasn't one garbage can standing,\" Bishop said. \"I'm hoping it doesn't get too crazy next Sunday.\"",

Campaign manager Mark Block confirmed to ABC News Tuesday that Cain is \u201creassessing whether to stay in the race,\u201d while spokesman J.D. Gordon told ABC the opposite: that Cain is simply reassessing campaign strategy, such as \u201cwhat states we visit, what interviews we do, how we allocate resources \u2013 things like that.\u201d\nLater in the day, Block told ABC there\u2019s \u201cno way he\u2019s dropping out\u201d and that the reassessment was \u201cnot a reassessment of withdrawing\u201d from the 2012 race.\nThat familiar Keystone Kops performance is a reflection of an organization staffed by few operatives with presidential experience, working for a political neophyte who\u2019s proven himself ill-equipped for a national campaign. The combination of a supremely self-assured candidate \u2014 speaking in the third person and convinced of his own ability to talk himself out of any jam \u2014 surrounded by a group of not-ready-for-prime-time aides making it up as they go along has resulted in a campaign meltdown for the ages.\nUntil the discrepancy over whether he was or was not considering quitting the race, the most recent example of self-inflicted wounds from Team Herman came in response to an Atlanta Fox affiliate\u2019s plans to run the story on Ginger White, the woman who claimed she had carried on a long-term affair with Cain.\nAfter the television station indicated it was preparing to air the allegations, the campaign had a response teed up: The veteran attorney Cain retained earlier this month after being accused of sexual harassment would issue a statement to the station arguing that such a claim had no place in the public discourse and refuse to confirm or deny the charges.\nLin Wood, the attorney, did just that.\nBut that statement didn\u2019t appear on the affiliate\u2019s website until Monday evening \u2014 some time after Cain himself preempted his own attorney and contradicted his own prepared defense by appearing on CNN earlier in the day to flatly deny he had a sexual relationship with White.",

        "raw_content": "Michaela Shelton \u201921 Helped Sagehens Flock to the Polls\nMichaela Shelton '21 is interested in civic engagement and is planning on majoring in politics.\nFour years ago, only 17 percent of Pomona College students voted in the midterm election. That\u2019s why Michaela Shelton \u201921 and others got involved to help mobilize student voters at Pomona College. Shelton worked closely with co-leader Lucas Carmel \u201919, a group of 20 volunteers and with TurboVote, an online tool that helps users take the first step to register to vote and/or request an absentee ballot.\nTurboVote reports that about 40 percent of Pomona College students, 703 to be exact, signed up for TurboVote in 2018. Of those 703 sign-ups, 344 students used TurboVote to begin the voter registration process, 388 indicated they would vote by mail and 34 in person.\n\u201cWhen I see people taking action by voting, it tells me that democracy is not dead and that there is still hope for the future,\u201d says Shelton, one of the student leaders who organized a campus-wide nonpartisan voter registration and voter engagement campaign this fall.\n\u201cThe reason why we were able to reach so many people at Pomona College is because of all the outreach volunteers did, and I am thankful for those who came together to make this happen. Seeing people become motivated to participate in our government by voting is what inspires me to continue doing this crucial work,\u201d says Shelton, who is planning to major in politics.\nShelton, and co-leader Lucas Carmel \u201919, organized a team of student volunteers \u2013 many of them first-years \u2013 to contact their friends and classmates at Pomona through text messages and Facebook Messenger to remind them to register to vote, and to request a mail-in or absentee ballot if needed. The team also provided nonpartisan resources for students to learn about the issues in their districts.\nJust a sophomore, Shelton was inspired to help lead the get-out-the-vote efforts on campus when Milo Kremer \u201920 put out a call on Facebook to other students to get Pomona to join the \u2018All In\u2019 Campus Democracy Challenge, a national awards program that encourages colleges and universities to increase student voting rates.\nWhen the Political Becomes Personal\nMichaela Shelton '21\nAsked where her interest in politics comes from, Shelton points to an early memory of her mother and teenage sister waking up at 4 a.m. \u2013 her mother to get ready to vote and her sister to volunteer at the polling location. Her mother took Election Day very seriously and passed that trait on to her daughters.\nAlthough Shelton admits she did not wake up at 4 a.m. to follow in her sister\u2019s footsteps, as a high schooler she did volunteer at U.S. Rep. Carolyn Maloney\u2019s field office in New York, communicating directly with constituents. \u201cI never imagined the amount of people working behind an elected official. That was a cool experience,\u201d says Shelton.\nShelton continued to have cool experiences in high school, including traveling in for the Perspectives on Pomona (POP!) weekend, a fly-in program that brings students from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to campus. At Pomona that weekend, Shelton met other students who identified as either first-generation and/or low-income but just as importantly, she says, \u201cI felt the Black community was really, really strong and I felt I could connect with students here.\u201d\nOnce Shelton started her first year at Pomona, she enrolled in a variety of classes to see what whetted her appetite, but it was her ID1 class, taught by Professor Amanda Hollis-Brusky, that hooked her on politics. \u201cI loved the books we read, the memoirs of politicians who shared their stories of what made them run for office, but it was Shirley Chisholm\u2019s memoir \u2013 of her also being from New York, of first being an educator and activist and how she ended up in politics \u2013 that\u2019s when I first saw myself reflected in the class.\u201d\nThat shifted Shelton\u2019s whole perspective. \u201cThe political became personal for me because it\u2019s affecting real people \u2013 the people in my family\u2026 because what would my life have been without government resources?\u201d\nA Millennial Wave Sweeps Campus\nAt the beginning of her sophomore year, Shelton saw an opportunity to get the vote out at Pomona and jumped right in.\nShelton and the team of volunteers strategized to reach out to their Pomona classmates on Facebook. Some students didn\u2019t know there was an election, how to get an absentee ballot or were confused about how to participate. Partnering with TurboVote, the process became super easy, says Shelton, because you just fill out basic information and TurboVote sends you what you need.\n\u201cA lot of people were thankful for our reminders because it\u2019s so easy to get lost in your coursework. We were here to make this process easier and if you vote during the midterms, it\u2019s more likely that you\u2019ll keep voting,\u201d she says.\n\u201cI have a lot of faith in millennials, in people my age. I see a wave of potential, of people who are 18 to 24 who are politically engaged and looking for someone to represent their interests, people who are willing to vote and willing to go to the polls,\u201d says Shelton who adds that it\u2019s even more inspiring to see a wave of young people of color deciding to run for office as well.\n\u201cVoting is not just for one type of individual. You don\u2019t have to be wealthy or come from a privileged background. There\u2019s a place for you to vote regardless of your background. Even if you are ineligible to vote, you can encourage others to vote to support your needs,\u201d says Shelton, who was keen on mobilizing Pomona\u2019s first-generation and low-income community to get to the polls.\n\u201cIf you don\u2019t think there\u2019s someone who represents you, consider that you might be the person to represent yourself and others. It\u2019s time.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Jayde Martin '18\nJayde Martin \u201918 has always had her sights on becoming a music teacher. When she was trying to choose the right school, SUNY Potsdam\u2019s Crane School of Music proved to be the perfect fit for her, not only because of its impressive music education program, but also Crane\u2019s outstanding music performance program, so she double majored in both!\n\u201cMy primary goal was to be an orchestra teacher in the public schools, but I also wanted to find a place where I would have the opportunities to perform. I\u2019ve been playing violin since I was five years old, and I\u2019m just used to performing in front of people and I always want to get better for myself. Crane was a really great place for me to find exactly that. The music education department is great! The faculty are very caring and they know what you need,\u201d she said.\nOne faculty member who made a significant impact on Martin was Associate Professor Dr. Sarah Hersh. She\u2019s really helped me grow as an artist and she knew exactly what I needed in my four years. She was great,\u201d Martin said.\nDr. Robert Docker, an assistant professor in the music education department, also provided her with a lot of guidance as an undergraduate. She said that he really helped her to grow as a string music educator. \u201cIn the classroom, he is just himself. He doesn\u2019t have to put on a show for anyone. He\u2019s not trying to impress anyone, and that\u2019s inspired me to just be myself,\u201d she said.\n\u201cWhat's great about Crane is that it has a solid music education curriculum as well as being very strong in performance.\u201d\nAfter graduating in May, Martin was back on campus for her third summer working as a counselor for Crane Youth Music (CYM)\u2014a program that started in 1973 for middle school and high school musicians from all over the country. The first summer, she played with the symphony orchestra at CYM; last summer, she coached a violin quartet, and this year Docker gave her the reigns to conduct a piece for the CYM chamber orchestra. Docker took a seat as Martin led the young string musicians at the front of a rehearsal hall in the Crane complex.\n\u201cI love it, because I get to see the perspective of Crane through the eyes of middle school- and high schoolers. When I was their age, I did not have that opportunity. The campers get to work one-on-one with faculty in so many different settings, and seeing them experience Crane in this way is really exciting for me,\u201d Martin said.\nHer development as a music educator took a major step forward last semester while student teaching. Her first placement was at Tesago Elementary School in Clifton Park, N.Y., where she taught general music to first through fifth graders, and also conducted two choruses. Her second placement was at Saratoga Springs High School, where she worked with the high school orchestra and helped teach music theory.\n\u201cThrough student teaching last semester, I was able to do a lot of conducting with two orchestras. I also conducted an elementary choir. I was able to get so much experience in the field. Being off campus my last semester, in the schools every single day, really got me in the mindset of what it was like to be a teacher full time,\u201d Martin said.\nDuring her student teaching she not only taught violin\u2014her primary instrument\u2014but also viola, cello and bass. \u201cI really was able to develop and grow on those instruments. When you\u2019re teaching strings, especially at the elementary level, you are teaching all of the strings. Knowing the foundations of each of those instruments and basic techniques is really important for teaching your students,\u201d she said.\nHer other major teaching opportunity took place in Jamaica as part of the Jamaica Field Service Project. There, she worked with children in small primary schools in rural Jamaica, teaching drumming lessons, recorder lessons and singing traditional Jamaican songs with the local children. After first participating in the project in 2017, she was invited back twice as a supervisor, where she oversaw other music education students in the program. \u201cEach time I loved it! I love seeing a different culture and being able to immerse myself in music. A lot of what I did at Crane prepared me for the work that I did in Jamaica,\u201d she said.\nIn addition to teaching in the rural schools, Martin also learned about Afro-Caribbean drum beats and spent every night drumming on the island. \u201cA lot of my work there helped me in my general music placement (student teaching) this past semester. I actually designed a curriculum on bucket drumming, and it was the first time the children had ever done anything like that,\u201d she said.\nMartin has been busy applying for jobs all over New York State, hoping to find a position where she can oversee an orchestra. She recently accepted a job as an elementary and middle school music teacher in the Liverpool Central School District in Syracuse, N.Y. where she will be doing just that. In addition to conducting two orchestras, she will be teaching lessons and recruiting children in the elementary school for her orchestra. As she prepares to get set up in her first classroom, Martin feels well-prepared to start teaching the next generation of musicians\u2014thanks to her many leadership opportunities through The Crane School of Music.\nTo learn more about the Department of Music Education, visit: www.potsdam.edu/academics/Crane/MusicEd",

        "title": "Bread of Life: A look at the Lectionary for August | Presbyterian Foundation",
        "raw_content": "Bread of Life: A look at the Lectionary for August\nBy Rev. Thia Reggio\nEditor\u2019s note: Each month, we ask a Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) pastor to write about upcoming opportunities in the lectionary for discussing stewardship. For August 2018, Rev. Thia Reggio, Pastor of Astoria First in Astoria, New York, writes about John 6, which is part of the lectionary for the entire month of August. Pastors might consider a series on stewardship beginning with this passage.\nAugust\u2019s lectionary gospel texts, drawn from John 6, give us the beautiful and at times unsettling, even terrifying discourse on the Bread of Life. In this chapter, Jesus, having fed the 5,000, is intentionally challenging both his detractors, his disciples, and his would-be followers to understand the intensity of his mission and purpose on earth. He does this using the allusion to himself as bread. Jesus first offers this description of himself in what sounds like a metaphor, a way of understanding his presence on earth tied into the ancient Jewish scriptures. He doesn\u2019t stop there, though. Clearly this image of bread is more than a literary device. He is intent on pressing into difficult and uncomfortable places where spirit and flesh meet and consequences are felt.\nRev. Thia Reggio\nJesus calls into question the motivations of the crowd who follow him. Are they there for the food? Are they coming on full stomachs only to fall away if they don\u2019t continue to be fed? In the heart of the passage, included in the pericopes for the second and third Sundays in August, Jesus uses language that is hard to hear, about eating his flesh and drinking his blood. Extremely uncomfortable language to hear directly from Jesus.\nWe tend to cherry pick from these passages, focusing on the more palatable and lofty verses, rather than those that are harder to swallow, if you will. Using these texts to examine stewardship patterns and possibilities, you can take a more holistic approach over the course of the month. You might think of this discourse as a loaf of bread itself\u2014a loaf of braided Challah with one strand containing the language of the bread of heaven, Jesus sent to earth as the living bread of a living God; one strand bringing the flavor of the ancient promises of Moses and the manna in the desert; and one strand, Jesus\u2019 very real, physical, fleshly presence and its reminder of Jesus\u2019 humanity and sacrifice.\nTaken together, August\u2019s gospel lessons can provide an examination of stewardship and giving that calls for reflection on personal motivations, takes us into difficult conversations about what Jesus was willing to give and what Jesus requires of those who follow him, and finally brings us to the words of Peter, the Rock of the Church, \u201cLord, to whom shall I (we) go? You have the words of eternal life.\u201d\nThis post looks at:\nWeek One: John 6:24-35\u2014Motivations and expectations in stewardship and giving\nWeek Two: John 6:35, 41-51\u2014Jesus sets the stakes with the giving of his whole self\nWeek Three: John 6:51-58\u2014Abiding in Christ, the lack of want\nWeek Four: John 6:56-69\u2014Devotion beyond understanding\nNotice that the passages are tightly connected by the inclusion of a verse from the previous pericope at the outset of each following week\u2014emphasizing the interrelatedness of the strands of the story.\nWeek 1: August 5\n24So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into the boats and went to Capernaum looking for Jesus.\n25When they found him on the other side of the lake, they said to him, \u201cRabbi, when did you come here?\u201d 26Jesus answered them, \u201cVery truly, I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. 27Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For it is on him that God the Father has set his seal.\u201d 28Then they said to him, \u201cWhat must we do to perform the works of God?\u201d 29Jesus answered them, \u201cThis is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.\u201d 30So they said to him, \u201cWhat sign are you going to give us then, so that we may see it and believe you? What work are you performing? 31Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, \u2018He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'\u201d 32Then Jesus said to them, \u201cVery truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.\u201d 34They said to him, \u201cSir, give us this bread always.\u201d\n35Jesus said to them, \u201cI am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.\u201d\nYou are looking for me\u2026 because you ate your fill of the loaves. \u2013John 6:26\nTo examine and ultimately reframe stewardship, you can start with an honest reflection on motivations for faith and giving.\nWhy are you looking for Jesus? Do you have a transactional faith? Do you have expectations that the church must meet in order to keep you coming back? What are you requiring of the church and what do you believe is required of you in return?\nEarlier this year, the Poor People\u2019s Campaign (A National Call for a Moral Revival), co-led by PC(USA) Pastor Liz Theoharis, held 40 Days of Action. For six weeks, people all across the US marched on state capitols, gathered for learning sessions and shared arts events to draw attention to issues affecting the most vulnerable among us.\nEach week, at the end of the marches and rallies organized by the Poor People\u2019s Campaign, there was food. Sandwiches, or pizza, or salad would appear as if by magic on street corners or plazas or buses due to the generous donations of individuals, churches and businesses that believe in the campaign\u2019s message that it\u2019s time to \u201cfight poverty, not the poor.\u201d It\u2019s not magic that makes this food appear. It\u2019s generosity.\nAt the end of a long day, I\u2019m grateful for that food. But it\u2019s not why I came. It\u2019s not why people come back week after week. It begs the question, why do I come? Why did thousands of people come?\nMost people would say that they don\u2019t come to church each week for the food either. Still it\u2019s worth examining whether there is some part of what brings you back each week that has to do with getting something you need. What expectations do you have of Jesus? What have you gotten in the past that keeps you coming back?\nJesus challenges the people who are following him, flatly stating that they want him to keep their stomachs full and that they are missing the larger picture\u2014that they don\u2019t care about the signs he is showing them. As he continues to drive home the seriousness of his mission and the stakes of following him, he gives no quarter. If they\u2019re coming to get something for themselves they\u2019re following the wrong leader.\nGoing back to the questions at the beginning of this section, examine your expectations and motivations for following Jesus and coming to church. Once you identify your expectations, consider what expectations Jesus and the church might have of you.\n41Then the Jews began to complain about him because he said, \u201cI am the bread that came down from heaven.\u201d 42They were saying, \u201cIs not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, \u2018I have come down from heaven\u2019?\u201d 43Jesus answered them, \u201cDo not complain among yourselves. 44No one can come to me unless drawn by the Father who sent me; and I will raise that person up on the last day. 45It is written in the prophets, \u2018And they shall all be taught by God.\u2019 Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. 46Not that anyone has seen the Father except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father. 47Very truly, I tell you, whoever believes has eternal life. 48I am the bread of life. 49Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. 51I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.\u201d\nThe bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh. \u2013John 6:51b\nIn this passage, some of those who were upset by and skeptical of Jesus, tried to point to his humanity as proof that he had an inflated vision of himself. \u201cIs not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know?\u201d\nJesus sees in this challenge the opportunity to drive home this essential part of his identity. It\u2019s precisely because he has come as a recognizable human being, made of flesh and blood, that he is able to make the ultimate sacrifice.\nHere, Jesus unequivocally sets the table stakes for participation in his ministry. While we may prefer to focus on living forever, Jesus is intent on driving home the very real sacrifice he is preparing to make, and the requirement that his followers must partake of this reality.\nIn the wilderness, God required the Israelites to eat manna to survive. That was about sustaining their lives (remember the expectation of the crowd who had followed Jesus because their stomachs were full?) certainly a gift from God. What Jesus is about is a different kind of food\u2014his own flesh and blood.\nNow, he has begun to get to the heart of his mission, the willing sacrifice of himself to end the practice of human sacrifice for all time. The death of the physical, but not the spiritual self. Without a physical body to put on the line, God in Christ, could not demonstrate this action of the divine.\nHigh stakes. As you consider what is required of you as one who has been drawn to Jesus by the One who sent him, consider first what Jesus willingly gave. This is the starting point for all discussions about stewardship and giving: First, that the goal is not to hold onto what one has but to give it fully and freely without fear; second, that Jesus doesn\u2019t ask us to give up our lives in the physical sense, but to be part of his sacrifice, so that everything we give of our resources is an echo of that ultimate gift for the life of the world: Jesus\u2019 flesh.\n51\u201cI am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.\u201d\n52The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, \u201cHow can this man give us his flesh to eat?\u201d 53So Jesus said to them, \u201cVery truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; 55for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink. 56Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. 57Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me. 58This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like that which your ancestors ate, and they died. But the one who eats this bread will live forever.\u201d\n56Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them.\nJohn uses the word \u201cflesh\u201d six times and \u201cblood\u201d four times in this passage. Rather than correcting those who question whether he can really mean that his followers are to eat his actual flesh, he insists that there is no life apart from doing so.\nThere is an opportunity here to make a vital connection between Christ, Creation and Communion. Jesus understood the message that we now focus on mainly on Ash Wednesday\u2014that all life contains the same essence of physical matter (though he wouldn\u2019t have used that term) along with the spiritual transcendent life force. In a very real sense, the bread we eat and the cup we drink at The Lord\u2019s Supper is therefore at its essence one and the same with Christ\u2019s body and blood. The remembrance that Jesus calls for is at least in part the remembrance of that connection\u2014that all\nliving things are connected. We abide in Christ, who contains and embodies the essence of life, and we consume Christ so that Christ abides in us.\nJesus makes a point here that goes to the purpose of incarnation\u2014not to dwell only in the spiritual realm from which he comes (ascending and descending), but to dwell in the flesh, so that he may end death as we know it by willingly going to it for the sake of others and the sake of life itself.\nJesus will die a very real death in order to keep his promise. He will bleed. He will endure the wounding, tearing, and torture of his flesh. He wants us to take this in and experience it through him as the deepest possible connection to life itself. In relinquishing our fear of death and its fleshy, bloody messiness, we join Christ in a full life.\nConsidering the relationship between what God has done through the Incarnation to prove the necessity of physical commitments as well as spiritual, there is a clear call toward giving of the real, tangible physical possessions that we are given in life. Once again, the context of Christ\u2019s own sacrifice provides the foundation for a life abiding in Christ as one that emulates his priorities for giving.\n56\u201cThose who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. 57Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me. 58This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like that which your ancestors ate, and they died. But the one who eats this bread will live forever.\u201d 59He said these things while he was teaching in the synagogue at Capernaum.\n60When many of his disciples heard it, they said, \u201cThis teaching is difficult; who can accept it?\u201d 61But Jesus, being aware that his disciples were complaining about it, said to them, \u201cDoes this offend you? 62Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? 63It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh is useless. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. 64But among you there are some who do not believe.\u201d For Jesus knew from the first who were the ones that did not believe, and who was the one that would betray him. 65And he said, \u201cFor this reason I have told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted by the Father.\u201d\n66Because of this many of his disciples turned back and no longer went about with him. 67So Jesus asked the twelve, \u201cDo you also wish to go away?\u201d 68Simon Peter answered him, \u201cLord, to whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God.\u201d\nLord, to whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life. \u2013John 6:68\nEchoing the words of the beautiful Psalm 139: We come to the end, we are still with you.\nJesus has taken his disciples, detractors, and would be followers on a difficult journey. Some may have misheard him as belittling Moses, suggesting that the Jewish tradition leads to death, being self-aggrandizing, outrageous, even grisly. It\u2019s important to remember that Jesus lived his entire life as a Jew among Jews. He began his ministry with a teaching from the Prophet Isaiah, and grounded all of his teaching in the Law, which scripture tells us he did not come to abolish, but to uphold. Jesus draws on the story of the manna, not to diminish God\u2019s great saving work in preserving the lives of the Israelites, but to place his work beside that as another act of mercy sent from God, this time with a different purpose\u2014to give spiritual life, through fleshly sacrifice of God\u2019s self.\nJesus is clear that those who come to him and follow him do so because God has drawn them to him. God has drawn you to Jesus Christ. That means you are drawn to hear his message, even the parts of his message that are hard to hear; the parts of following him that are difficult; the parts of being on his path that are hard to accept, even beyond our understanding.\nHearing these difficult teachings that force us to look at the sacrament of The Lord\u2019s Supper unflinchingly, we still find ourselves saying with Peter, \u201cLord, to whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life.\u201d Somehow, the harder Peter listened, the more his sensibilities were offended and his belief was tested, when he looked inside himself, he realized that he belonged to and with Jesus.\nWe serve this complex, challenging, difficult God who loved us so much, loved the whole world so much that there was nothing to do but to come in flesh and blood and show us how that love can look in human form.\nThis is the love, the life in which we abide eternally. This is why we give. This is why we come back week after week to hear the Living Word. The question is not whether we can ever get enough; its whether we can we ever hope to give enough? To show enough love to others? To follow Christ\u2019s example of service to the poor, the oppressed, the marginalized so that it can ever come close to the way he set before us? As with everything God does, teaching us what it looks like to give is both beyond our capacity to fully understand and within our capacity to fully embrace.",

        "title": "Throat Cancer Symptoms And Risks | Prevention",
        "raw_content": "Could Throat Cancer Happen To You?\nThe symptoms, signs, and risks you need to know\nThroat cancer strikes tens of thousands of Americans annually, but chances are it only recently hit your radar (Michael Douglas' diagnosis has spotlighted the disease). Thanks to decreasing smoking rates, its incidence has been declining, except for one type: oropharynx cancer, which is increasingly affecting nonsmokers. That's due to a rise in human papillomavirus, the virus linked to cervical cancer. \"HPV-related oropharynx cancer is an emerging epidemic,\" says Jochen Lorch, MD, a head and neck oncologist at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. \"There are about 7,000 cases in America, and that is expected to double in 5 to 10 years.\"\n[sidebar]Tip-offs such as hoarseness, swollen glands, and throat pain are so common during cold and flu season that it's easy to dismiss them, says Edward Kim, MD, chief of head and neck medical oncology at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. A common scenario: A patient complains of a sore throat, gets treated for infection, and sees improvement. Then the \"infection\" returns and is treated with more medication. \"This can go on for months, during which time a stage one throat cancer can progress to stage four because it's very aggressive,\" says Dr. Lorch.\nThese essential steps help keep you safe.\n1. Pay close attention to recurring symptoms\nDoctors don't routinely screen for throat cancer, so flag any symptoms that last longer than 2 weeks or that clear up but soon return. Your primary care doctor will refer you to an ear, nose, and throat doctor for more thorough testing. \"When [HPV-related] cancer is caught early, patients have greater than a 90% survival rate,\" says Anna Giuliano, PhD, chair of the department of cancer epidemiology and genetics at Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa. Most patients are younger and healthier than those with cancers triggered by smoking and drinking. Research shows that HPV-positive cancers also respond better to radiation and chemotherapy.\nA 2007 New England Journal of Medicine study found that people with six or more oral-sex partners in their lifetime were at 3.4 times greater risk of this kind of throat cancer. The HPV virus may remain dormant for years or even decades, so your past partners can affect your current vulnerability even if you've long been married. If you've had abnormal Pap tests or a history of cervical HPV infections, then you may be at higher risk of oropharynx cancer. But before you start fretting over your sexual history, know that \"although the HPV virus is common, throat cancer is still relatively rare,\" says Dr. Giuliano. About 4 to 10% of people have oral HPV infections, but only a tiny fraction of those will be diagnosed with cancer. Your body usually just fights off the virus. Also, keep in mind that smoking is still the predominant cause of oropharynx cancer.\n3. Vaccinate your children\nCurrently approved to prevent cervical cancer and genital warts in people ages 9 to 26, the HPV vaccine can likely thwart throat cancer too. One of the strains it protects against (HPV 16) is linked to more than 90% of HPV-related throat cancers. Experts advise getting your tween, teen, or young adult vaccinated.\nSpecial alert for women with bone loss: If you have osteoporosis, your drug treatment may raise your risk of cancer of the esophagus (the tube that connects your mouth to your stomach). People who used bisphosphonate drugs like Fosamax for about 5 years had double the esophageal cancer risk, a recent study found, an increase likely related to side effects like stomach upset and esophageal inflammation.\n\"Your overall odds of esophageal cancer are still extremely low,\" says Barbara Burtness, MD, a professor of medical oncology at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia. (About 16,640 cases are diagnosed a year, and it's 3 to 4 times more common in men than in women.) But if you have risk factors for esophageal cancer\u2014smoking, drinking, acid reflux, or being overweight\u2014ask your doctor about other bone-boosting options. She may prescribe the drug as a once-a-year intravenous dose, which should eliminate the esophageal cancer risk.\nMore from Prevention: 20 Ways To Never Get Cancer\nFight Throat Cancer\n7 Skin Cancer Symptoms You Can't See\nCan Lipstick Cause Cancer?\nThe Breast Cancer Poll\nCould Where You Live Determine Your Cancer Risk?",

        "raw_content": "As a business owner, setting up disability insurance for small business is one of the most important things you can do. For entrepreneurs, proper disability insurance coverage requires more than just taking steps to protect personal income following an injury or illness. Business owners\u2019 need for disability insurance often necessitates three types of disability insurance policies:\nIncome Protection: Professional disability insurance provides personal income protection, providing a percentage of pre-disability income to insured individuals. The benefits you receive under this type of policy are intended to help you meet the expenses of daily living.\nBusiness Overhead: In addition to being concerned about personal expenses, entrepreneurs must also take steps to make sure they can continue to pay business overhead expenses following a disability. The best small business disability insurance plans include business overhead coverage, which provides funds to take care of building leases, taxes, staffing expenses, and other operating expenses in the event the owner becomes disabled.\nKey Person Disability: Many small businesses need the added protection of key person disability insurance. This type of coverage pays benefits to the company if one of the owners or another key person experiences a disability. Proceeds can be used to hire a replacement or an outside firm to handle services the covered individual is no longer able to perform. These types of policies are owned by the business rather than by the insured individual. The business pays the policy premiums, and receives the benefits in the event that the person covered by the policy experiences a disability. If the covered key person becomes disabled, the business will receives either a lump sum payout or monthly payments that can be used to pay the expenses incurred when hiring outside help to take care of the duties ordinarily handled by the disabled individual.\nDisability Buyout: Do you have business partners? Have you stopped to think about what would happen to your business of one of the owners was to become disabled? Many business partners draft buy-sell agreements that specify what actions should be taken in the event that one or more of the partners becomes unable to work due to a disability. These legal documents also spell out the course of action that will be followed if one of the partners dies.\nIn most cases, these types of agreements specify that the partners who will continue to run the business will purchase the affected partner\u2019s stock, either from the individual or his or her estate (in the event of death). When such agreements are drawn up, it\u2019s common for the company to purchase both key person life insurance and disability buyout insurance. This type of disability insurance for business is designed to make sure that funds will be available to execute the buy-sell agreement in the event of a worst-case scenario.",

        "raw_content": "John W. Hoopes Ph.D.\nIn Search of Ancient ETs?\nDid the Pilgrims come from another galaxy?\nDid the Pilgrims actually come from beyond the stars? A recent episode of South Park skewered The History Channel for their promotion of fantastical \"alternative history\" with a parody on the effects of \"Ancient Aliens,\" a series that revives the ancient astronaut folklore most commonly associated with the publications, movies, and defunct theme park of Erich von D\u00e4niken. The desire to attribute the accomplishments of ancient peoples to extraterrestrials may be a manifestation of unarticulated fears: 1) Fear of the complexity of understanding an ancient as it has been revealed by scientific archaeology, not Bible-based mythology, and 2) fear that non-white peoples were actually capable of great technological and cultural feats formerly attributed only to the superior \"white\" races of Europe and the Middle East. The history of Ancient Aliens can be traced to fantasy fiction and sensationalized documentaries that allayed anxieties by creating a new mythology for our times.\nIn an article titled Charioteer of the Gods and subsequent books, author Jason Colavito has traced the history of the ancient astronaut theories in von D\u00e4niken's work to none other than fantasy writer H.P. Lovecraft, whose short stories in the Cthulhu Mythos-written in the 1920s and 1930s. \"The Call of Cthulhu\" (1928), using the trope of a discovered text, suggested that ancient \"cyclopean\" ruins on islands in the South Pacific were testimony to the existence of rubbery, tentacled \"Old Ones\"-slippery beings revered as gods that had come to Earth from beyond the stars. As Colavito has documented, Lovecraft's work was revived in the 1960s in the French magazine Plan\u00e8te (\"The Planet\"), edited by Louis Pauwels and Jacques Bergier, for an audience that was fascinated by American pulp fiction of the early 20th century.\nItalian journalist Peter Kolosimo's book Il pianeta sconosciuto (\"The Unknown Planet,\" 1959) whetted an interest in alternative theories for ancient \"mysteries\" as Pauwels and Bergier wove together theories about ancient astronauts, a hollow earth, and secret Nazi conspiracies in Le matin des magiciens (1960), published three years later in the United Kingdom as The Dawn of Magic and in the U.S. as The Morning of the Magicians. A German edition titled Aufbruch ins dritte Jahrtausend (\"Departure into the Third Millennium\"), also published in 1963, may have been what inspired von D\u00e4niken to spin a personal narrative of discovery based on his round-the-world travel. An English translation of Erich von D\u00e4niken's Errierungen an die Zunkunft: Ungel\u00f6ste R\u00e4tsel der Vergangenheit (1968) was published in English Chariots of the Gods? Memories of the Future-Unsolved Mysteries of the Past (1969). Released in England, Canada, and the U.S. in 1969, von D\u00e4niken's work was a popular selection in book clubs.\nA version of the German documentary \"Erinnerungen an die Zukunft\" (1970), re-edited with a new script and narration by Rod Serling, creator of \"The Twilight Zone,\" was released in the U.S. as the popular made-for-TV documentary \"In Search of Ancient Astronauts\" (1973). It was followed two years later by John Landsberg's films \"In Search of Ancient Mysteries\" (for television) and \"The Outer Space Connection\" (in theaters), also with Serling's narration. (These were among Serling's last films, since he died in 1975). These served as pilots for the successful \"In Search of...\" TV series (1976-82), narrated by Leonard Nimoy of \"Star Trek\" fame, which explored issues of the paranormal along with other examples of pseudoscience presented as genuine \"mysteries.\" By the beginning of the 1980s, von D\u00e4niken's multi-million bestsellers and the TV documentaries has firmly fixed ancient astronaut folklore within contemporary mythology.\nWhat do archaeologists make of these theories? Not much. All of the \"mysteries\" that have been popularized by this work have been debunked. Decipherment of Maya hieroglyphic writing has made it clear that the \"Maya astronaut\" depicted on a limestone slab in a pyramid at Palenque, Chiapas is actually K'inich Janaab' Pakal, an ancient ajaw (king) dating to the 7th century, and the slab represents an allegorical depiction of his death. The giant stone balls of southern Costa Rica are monuments carved using available stone grinding technology, probably not laser beams. Experiments by professional architects such as Jean-Pierre Protzen and amateur aficionados of \"forgotten technology\" such as retired carpenter Wally Wallington have demonstrated how huge megalithic monuments could have been easily moved and erected without the use of high-tech anti-gravity devices.\nHowever, understanding these phenomena is not as simple as saying \"gods did it\" or even \"ETs did it.\" It requires getting into the nitty-gritty of archaeological methods, world prehistory, and details of what we actually know about ancient cultures. Yes, that means doing some homework! (And not by reading more sensational literature...) It also requires entertaining the notion that ancient peoples who looked very different from the \"white\" culture heros of ancient Greece, Rome, and the Bible could have accomplished great things without outside help. It may be that latter that makes some people anxious and provokes denial, especially when considering the role that European cultures may have played in destroying those cultures-as the Pilgrims and their descendants did those of their Native American hosts. Those are the stories--painful as they are to hear--that TV documentaries should tell more competely and more truthfully.\nWhat You Should Know About 2012: Answers to 13 Questions\nIs it really time for the Apocalypse?\n11-11-11, Apophenia, and the Meaning of Life\nIs that what it looks like it is?\nSex and Bodies in Search of Exotic Cultures\nFamilial Searching of DNA Databases Hits The Spotlight\n\u201cA Shot Heard \u2018Round the World\u201d",

        "raw_content": "VA \u00bb Health Care \u00bb PTSD: National Center for PTSD \u00bb Understand \u00bb Related Problems \u00bb Traumatic Brain Injury and PTSD\nTraumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs from a sudden blow or jolt to the head. Brain injury often occurs during some type of trauma, such as an accident, blast, or a fall. Often when people refer to TBI, they are mistakenly talking about the symptoms that occur following a TBI. Actually, a TBI is the injury, not the symptoms.\nHow serious is my injury?\nA TBI is basically the same thing as a concussion. A TBI can be mild, moderate, or severe. These terms tell you the nature of the injury itself. They do not tell you what symptoms you may have or how severe the symptoms will be.\nA TBI can occur even when there is no direct contact to the head. For example, when a person suffers whiplash, the brain may be shaken within the skull. This damage can cause bleeding between the brain and skull. Bruises can form where the brain hits the skull. Like bruises on other parts of the body, for mild injuries these will heal with time.\nAbout 80% of all TBI's in civilians are mild (mTBI). Most people who have a mTBI will be back to normal by three months without any special treatment. Even patients with moderate or severe TBI can make remarkable recoveries.\nThe length of time that a person is unconscious (knocked out) is one way to measure how severe the injury was. If you weren't knocked out at all or if you were out for less than 30 minutes, your TBI was most likely minor or mild. If you were knocked out for more than 30 minutes but less than six hours, your TBI was most likely moderate.\nWhat are the common symptoms following a TBI?\nSymptoms that result from TBI are known as post-concussion syndrome (PCS). Few people will have all of the symptoms, but even one or two of the symptoms can be unpleasant. PCS makes it hard to work, get along at home, or relax. In the days, weeks, and months following a TBI the most common symptoms are:\nFeeling bothered by noise and light\nTrouble staying focused\nPoor judgment and acting without thinking\nBeing slowed down\nTrouble putting thoughts into words\nEmotional (Feelings)\nAnger outbursts and quick to anger\nAnxiety (fear, worry, or feeling nervous)\nThese symptoms are part of the normal process of getting better. They are not signs of lasting brain damage. These symptoms are to be expected and are not a cause for concern or worry. More serious symptoms include severe forms of those listed above, decreased response to standard treatments, and seizures.\nDo I have the symptoms that follow a TBI or PTSD - or both?\nYou may notice that many of the symptoms that follow a TBI overlap with the common reactions after trauma (en Espa\u00f1ol). Because TBI is caused by trauma and there is symptom overlap, it can be hard to tell what the underlying problem is. In addition, many people who get a TBI also develop PTSD.\nIt is important to be assessed because:\nPeople with TBI should not use some medications.\nNo matter how mild or severe the injury itself was, the effects could be serious.\nAlthough TBI screens are used, a screen is not used to diagnose TBI. Even if your TBI screen is positive, that does not mean that you have a TBI. It means that you should be assessed further.\nDiagnosing a TBI is hard because there may not be any physical signs of injury. Details of the trauma may be hard to pin down. Sometimes right after the injury the effects are so brief that they are not noticed. You may go to the doctor some time later when details of the injury are not as clear. TBI can occur in confused times of crisis, such as combat. In the heat of events the injury may be ignored. Many of the symptoms that can result from a TBI are the same as the symptoms of PTSD. For these reasons, the best way to diagnose a TBI is an interview by a skilled clinician.\nAre there effective treatments?\nMany people recover from TBI without any formal treatment. Problems that linger may clear up in a few weeks. You may notice some problems more as you return to your normal routine. For example, you may not realize that you get tired more quickly until you return to your regular chores, work, or school. Even so, people usually get better after a head injury, not worse. Professional treatment for the symptoms that follow TBI usually involves rehabilitation to improve functioning.\nThe good news is that effective treatments for PTSD also work well for those who have suffered mTBI. This includes two forms of therapy: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE). Learn more about Treatment Basics for PTSD.\nThe best way to deal with symptoms following TBI is to go back slowly to your normal routine, a little at a time. How much time you spend at work, with family, with others, or exercising depends on what feels comfortable. Pace yourself, and be sure to get all the rest you need. Avoiding alcohol and not taking any unnecessary medications is a good idea, to help allow the brain to heal.\nIf your symptoms get worse, or if you notice new PCS symptoms, this is a sign that you are pushing yourself too hard. Ignoring your symptoms and trying to \"tough it out\" often make the symptoms worse. Symptoms are your body's way of giving you information. A broken bone or a torn muscle hurts so that you won't use it and it has time to heal. PCS symptoms are your brain's way of telling you that you need to rest it.\nResearch suggests that one week of relaxing at home and then a week of slowly doing more after leaving the hospital is best for most patients. Most patients who took this advice were back to normal at work or school in 3 to 4 weeks. Most patients who weren't told what to do took 5 to 12 weeks to get back to their normal routine. They also had more PCS symptoms than patients who returned slowly to their routines.\nAccept and deal with the stress of the injury\nBe aware that having a head injury adds more stress to your life, not just bumps and bruises to your head. The trauma itself, being in the hospital, and going back to work or school and normal routines are all things that add stress to most patients' lives. You may have some trouble with work or school at first, and even though it is normal, this may be stressful and frustrating.\nAnother main cause of stress after a TBI is worry about the symptoms you have. Thinking and worrying about your symptoms can make them seem worse. Doctors who treat TBI agree that the single most important factor in recovery is that you know what to expect and what to do about the symptoms. You should remember that the symptoms are a normal part of getting better. They will likely go away on their own.\nAny level of TBI can disrupt families. Roles and responsibilities change when a family member is hurt. From the start, families needs to be involved and informed about TBI. By supporting the family, patient outcomes can be improved and burnout prevented.\nReturn to school or work slowly\nReturning to school or work is often the biggest challenge after TBI. This is because PCS symptoms can get in the way of meeting your work and school demands. For example, trouble focusing and memory problems may make it harder to learn new things in school. Or fatigue may limit your being able to handle work demands. Keep in mind when trying to return to work or school that the process will be slow. Don't expect yourself to perform right away as you did before your TBI. Instead, you should slowly resume responsibilities as you are able. Slowly increase your workload and hours. Only increase them when you feel fully ready.\nTBI and Veterans\nThe conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq (OEF/OIF) have resulted in increased numbers of Veterans who have TBI. The main causes of TBI in OEF/OIF Veterans are blasts, motor vehicle accidents, and gunshot wounds. The Department of Defense and the Defense and Veteran's Brain Injury Center estimate that 22% of all OEF/OIF combat wounds are brain injuries. This is compared to TBI in 12% of combat wounds that occurred in Vietnam.\nVeterans seem to have symptoms for longer than civilians. Some studies show most will still have symptoms 18-24 months after the TBI. Also, many Veterans have more than one medical problem, including: PTSD, chronic pain, or substance abuse. From 60-80% of service members who are hurt in other ways by a blast may have a TBI. These other problems make it harder to get better from any single problem. Veterans should remember, though, that their TBI symptoms are likely to last only a limited time. With proper treatment and healthy behaviors, they are likely to improve.\nVA is working to make sure that TBI care is easy to access. VA is using a TBI screening tool to begin the assessment process. VA has put in place the Polytrauma System of Care to treat Veterans with TBI who also have other injuries. Veterans with the most severe wounds are being treated at one of the 4 Polytrauma Rehabilitation Centers or one of the 21 Polytrauma Network Sites. Patients with less severe wounds may get treatment at local VA Medical Centers. No matter where a Veteran goes first, there is no \"wrong door\" for treatment.\nTraumatic brain injury: A guide for patients. (n.d.). CogSMART, VA San Diego Healthcare System.

It is expected that in not time Ghana will be exporting diapers to markets in sub-Saharan Africa.\nPresident Akufo-Addo unveils the plaque for the commissioning of the diaper making factory\nPresident Akufo-Addo has commissioned the Sunda Ghana Diaper Ltd, the largest diaper making factory in sub-Saharan Africa.\nThe diaper making factory is operating under the government\u2019s 1 District; 1 Factory (1D1F) programme. He did the commissioning as part of his three-day tour of the Greater Accra region.\nThe factory is located at the Bortianor, in the Ngleshie Amanfro constituency.\nSince the company is operating under 1D1F, it is currently receiving incentives such as tax holidays, import duty waivers and interest rate subsidy to help build its capacity and competitiveness.\nREAD ALSO: Menzgold suspends online trading; ask staff to go on leave\nAddressing the gathering, President Akufo-Addo indicated that \u201cwe have to attract investment into Ghana like Mr. Y.C. Chang, people who believe that the investment climate of our country is good, the governance of our country is good, and the opportunities for investment in our country are good.\u201d\nMeanwhile, Sunda Ghana Limited is set to establish two more factories under the 1D1F initiative. The 2 are Homepro Ghana Limited with an additional investment of USD$26 million and Sunda Hardware Limited with an additional investment of USD$18 million.\nPresident Akufo-Addo cuts the tape for the commissioning of the diaper making factory\nAccording to the President this means that \u201cthe work we are doing to strengthen the macroeconomy in our country is not some paperwork, it is not talk, talk work.\u201d\n\u201cIt has to do with creating the conditions for investment in our country, and that is why it is extremely important for the government to commit itself to the discipline that would enable it have a strong macroeconomy,\u201d he added.\nREAD ALSO: Ghana to stop importing rice soon \u2013 Agric MinisterGhana to stop importing rice soon \u2013 Agric Minister\nPresident Akufo-Addo assured that \u201cso long as I am your President, that discipline is going to be there in the management of the economy. We are not going to preside over widening deficits, high debts, high rates of interest, unstable currency, erratic power supply. That is not the path of the Akufo-Addo government for Ghana.\u201d\nHe added that it is also the responsibility of the government to ensure that Ghanaian industries, and industries established in Ghana, do not meet unfair competition from others.\n\u201cSo that is another responsibility of government, to create a level playing field for Ghanaian industries. It is establishing industries here in Ghana that we can get work for our young people. When we continue to depend on imports, we are creating jobs for other people overseas. Let us work hard to create jobs here for our people in Ghana, by encouraging investments like what we are seeing today,\u201d he said.\nPresident Akufo-Addo entreated the Chiefs and people of Bortianor/Ngleshie Amanfro, to \u201ccollaborate with our Chinese friends who have shown confidence in our country, and let them see that Ghanaian people know how to conduct ourselves properly, and we know how to conduct ourselves properly.\u201d",

There\u2019s a lot more to this vast and ancient land than just the Great Wall and Forbidden City, as you\u2019ll soon discover when you travel to China with Qatar Airways.\nThe apparent modernity of China\u2019s huge and sprawling cities hides deep links with the past and its older civilisations. The country has been continuously replenishing and recycling itself for over four millennia, but its roots haven\u2019t changed much throughout its modernisation era. The greatest flowering of this austere culture took place about 200BCE during the reign of the Han Dynasty, and the fearsome stone lions that guard many a modern office blocks made their first appearance as temple guardians three millennia ago. It\u2019s this sort of contrast between change and tradition that makes China such an endlessly fascinating country to visit.\nThe country showcases a variety of attractions and sites across all its areas. The southern region is home to sparsely populated towns, cities and villages that encompass such an ethnic diversity in their populations. This is the land of mist-covered hilltops and paddy fields, whereas to the northwest you\u2019ll find epic landscapes flanking the route of the original Old Silk Road and the start of the Tibetan mountains.\nModern China retains much of its secret life, and the tourist trail tends to be confined to particular sites such as the Forbidden City, Great Wall, Yangzi gorges, and of course the Terracotta Army. The tourist sites in locations like Shanghai represent wonderful photo opportunities, and to find out more about the culture be sure to visit the large museums that chart both ancient and more recent history.\nFly to China with Qatar Airways and you\u2019ll discover a world of Oriental wonder, modern expansion, and a fascinating glimpse into the distant past of this ancient land.",

Hill\nVisual Ergonomics Research Group1\nDepartment of Human Sciences, Loughborough University,\nLeicestershire, LE11 3TU, England.\nThe increasing use of Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs) for the viewing of virtual environments has been accompanied by a heightened awareness that, for some people, immersion in this way produces symptoms akin to those of motion sickness. However, this 'virtual simulation sickness', or 'cybersickness', must have a different genesis from that of motion sickness, as closing the eyes prevents the former but not the latter. Although it is known that most people can adapt (or 'habituate' if the stimulus is one that is repeated) to real motion ( Griffin, 1990), the characteristics of habituation to the appearance of motion are not yet known.\nIn order to examine this habituation, we extended the work of Ramsey ( 1996) by examining two groups of participants who had different amounts of visual stimulation ( Hill and Howarth, 1999). Of the 26 participants who started that experiment, 19 completed the full five days, during which time they were exposed to a virtual environment for twenty minutes (unless their symptoms became too severe) on a daily basis. Eleven of these participants were also exposed for an extra fifteen minutes daily, to provide additional visual stimulation. All 19 participants showed habituation over the week, with those who had been given the extra exposure showing the greater effect. We have now re-examined 10 of these participants (those available) after a time lapse of six months. During this time none of the participants experienced any immersion in a virtual environment, and we report here that the level of habituation previously seen has not been maintained.\nhttp://www.lboro.ac.uk/departments/hu/groups/viserg/visergI.htm",

Consequently, dynamic range processing is often applied to tracks at an individual basis as well as on the master channel (the over-all mix).

You couldn\u2019t miss her gleaming eyes and deep dimples, because she smiled all the time. She was a sensitive soul at 10, and her life was thrown into turmoil when her great grandmother died, and her parents split a few months later.\nThat\u2019s when Sheila and her kids moved to Miami to live with her parents. Adaijah had been a strong student in a small PK-5 charter school in Orlando, but suddenly she was finishing fifth grade in a new neighborhood and a much larger school.\n\u201cIt was the worst thing ever,\u201d she said, recalling the confusion she felt walking into classrooms with two or three times the number of students she was accustomed to.\nThey lived in Miami for just eight months before moving back north to Minneola, about 30 miles west of Orlando. But the switch to large neighborhood schools had just begun, and Adaijah continued to feel like an outsider, even with a clean slate at the start of middle school.\n\u201cI didn\u2019t know anyone,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was hard to fit in with a large group of people.\u201d\nThat\u2019s when the bullying began.\n\u201cThey used to call me bad names \u2013 fat, chubby, short,\u201d she said. \u201cThey made fun of my natural hair. I have curly, kinky hair sitting up on my head, and it\u2019s really poofy. I grew up loving my hair.\u201d\nShe switched to extensions, wigs and weaves. Anything to try to fit in.\nShe found no friends among the girls, and the boys were merciless. They catcalled when she ate lunch and when she tried to exercise in PE class.\n\u201cIt was torture,\u201d she said. \u201cThey wrecked my self-esteem.\u201d\nAdaijah went from A\u2019s and B\u2019s in sixth grade to B\u2019s and C\u2019s in eighth. High school, with more than 2,000 students, was worse. She kept to herself for most of her freshman year, but her desire for acceptance took on more urgency, and she settled for any friends she could get.\nThey skipped class constantly and hardly studied. At home, Adaijah was angry all the time, talking back and getting in petty fights with younger brother Adrian.\nShe wasn\u2019t herself. Her GPA bottomed out at 1.3. It was time for a change.\n\u201cI could not go back for my junior year,\u201d she said. \u201cI knew I was either going to be arrested or get pregnant. I was not going to make it to college.\u201d\nHope Preparatory Academy in Groveland, Fla., opened in 2016.\nThen she found Hope.\nAdaijah and her brother were among the first of 25 students to enroll. Everyone was smiling again.\nThough she was quiet and guarded at first, Adaijah knew she belonged. She felt safe and comfortable. With only a handful of classmates, she got to know her teachers personally, just how it was at her charter elementary school.\nShe bought in to everything \u2013 even the dress code and no-cellphone policy. She recovered some lost credits, turned her grades completely around, and became a role model to the younger students.\nPrincipal Eucretiae Waite and her staff had a hard time connecting this Adaijah to her past.\n\u201cWe couldn\u2019t believe that she was really struggling, but of course we saw the transcript,\u201d Waite said. \u201cShe came here and was just phenomenal. We figured it was just because we\u2019re a small school and she got more attention.\u201d\n\u201cShe was willing to help in the classroom and outside the classroom. She would stay after school. We would have to literally take her home sometimes. Like, \u2018Adaijah are you going home today?\u2019 \u201d\nIn two years at Hope Academy, Adaijah got all A\u2019s and one B and graduated last spring with honors. Teachers and administrators had promised to get her ready for college, and together, that promise was fulfilled.\nAdaijah was accepted to South Florida, Florida International, Florida Atlantic and Southeastern among others. But she decided to attend Tallahassee Community College. She started in August and is loving the confidence that has come with her newfound independence.\nShe plans to stay at TCC for two years before going to Florida State to study physical therapy.\nWhy not go straight to one of those universities?\n\u201cI wasn\u2019t ready for a four-year school,\u201d she said. \u201cI like the smaller setting.\u201d\nAdaijah didn\u2019t just survive her rocky roads, she learned from the bumps. She\u2019s planning to build a business in Houston or Atlanta someday, and she knows just the steps to get there.\n\u201cI\u2019ve always thrived in small situations,\u201d she said. \u201cSo for me to even think about big cities \u2026 it\u2019s like, \u2018Whoa, you are really growing.\u2019 \u201d\nThanks, in part, to finding Hope.\nAbout Hope Preparatory Academy\nOpened in 2016, the school is affiliated with non-denominational Hope International Church in Groveland. It has 76 students in grades 6-12, 63 of whom use Step Up For Students scholarships. The school uses the Edgenuity curriculum with an emphasis on college prep courses. The Terranova 3 test is administered annually, and high school students also take the SAT and ACT. Tuition is $6,300 for grades 6-8 and $6,700 for grades 9-12.\nPrevious articleFlorida schools roundup: Teacher bonuses suit, school security and more\nNext articleFlorida schools roundup: False alarms, grading concerns, bullying and more",

        "raw_content": "MEDIA ALERT: Fedora Core 2 , test2 is Now Available With SELinux\nLatest beta of Fedora release is first distribution to contain SELinux.\nAs part of its Information Mission (http://www.nsa.gov/ia/index.cfm), the National Security Agency has long been involved with the computer security research community in investigating a wide range of computer security topics including operating system security. Recognizing the critical role of operating system security mechanisms in supporting security at higher levels, researchers from NSA's Information Assurance Research Group have been investigating an architecture that can provide the necessary security functionality in a manner that can meet the security needs of a wide range of computing environments.\nSELinux (Security-enhanced Linux) in Fedora Core is an implementation of Mandatory Access Control (MAC) in the Linux kernel. Standard Linux security is a Discretionary Access Control (DAC) model, where super-user accounts have complete (discretionary) control over every aspect of the system. Compromise of a superuser gives an attacker total control. In a DAC system, some applications need super-user privileges to perform their functions. By contrast, a MAC system provides granular permissions for all users, programs, processes, files and devices. You can safely grant an application just the permissions it needs to do its function, and no more.\nThe goal of the Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to build a complete, general purpose operating system exclusively from free software. By using an open development process through public forums, the Red Hat engineering team hopes to provide an operating system more in line with the ideals of free software and more appealing to the open source community. Fedora Core is used as a proving ground for many new open source technologies that are in need of exposure to a wide audience.\u00c3\u0192\u00e2euro\u0161\u00c3\u201a Fedora Core 2 is also the first Linux distribution based on the 2.6 Linux kernel and already includes the next generation NFS protocol (NFSv4), GNOME 2.6 rc1 and KDE 3.2.1.\nFor more information or to download Fedora Core 2, test2, please visit http://fedora.redhat.com.",

It is distinct from glamour and art nude photography in that it is usually more suggestive rather than explicit in its approach to nudity and sexuality. Boudoir features subjects who do not regularly model, and produces images that are not intended to be seen by a wide audience, but rather to remain under the control of the subject.\nWHAT IS INCLUDED IN YOUR BOUDOIR EXPERIENCE?\nAn in person or phone meeting to get to know you better and prepare you for your photo shoot, a complimentary professional hair and make-up session, a prep guide, posing instructions, an unforgettable photo experience with a personalized unveiling session to discover your beautiful images fully retouched.\nThe Reveal is a separate viewing and ordering appointment conducted either at our private studio or via Skype (for our long distance clients) usually 2 to 4 weeks after your shoot.

        "raw_content": "Chiropractic is a way of looking at the human body as a whole. It's based on the idea that the body is a self\u00ad-sustaining and self\u00ad-healing organism. This function is controlled by what is referred to a our body's INNATE INTELLIGENCE. As an example: Let's say your three old has 1/2 of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, a banana, and a glass of milk. Does your child have to know what digestive enzymes are required and in what quantities? How long should the food remain in the stomach before entering the small intestine? Of course not! This veritable symphony of events is totally orchestrated by the brain by virtue of the nervous system. And the better the nervous system functions, the better WE function.\nAs mentioned earlier, your body is controlled by your brain, but the spinal cord and vast network of nerves that carry its messages are just as important. When this vital communication system is not functioning at its peak, your body\u2019s overall performance suffers.\nIn the chiropractic world, we don\u2019t use drugs to treat our patients. While supplementation and nutrition are almost always a part of the bigger picture, drugs and prescriptions can be viewed as band\u00adaids to treat symptoms rather than treating the source of the problem. Chiropractic addresses the problem naturally and in turn prompts the body to heal itself.\nWhile it's often perceived that the chiropractor solely treats back and neck pain, this is a small piece of what the profession is capable of handling. Chiropractors not only assist with soft and osseous problems such as sciatica and joint pain, but are largely called on to deal with many different health issues. Remember, everything is controlled by the brain through the spinal cord and spinal nerves. Improved communication means improved health and function.",

        "raw_content": "Tibetan anti-poaching activists examine a confiscated fishing net at Qinghai Lake in an undated photo.\nChinese authorities are detaining and questioning Tibetans working to block illegal fishing at the province\u2019s scenic Qinghai Lake, saying the Tibetans are intruding on their own responsibilities to enforce the law, local sources say.\nChinese fishermen caught fishing in the lake are frequently released, though, after complaining that Tibetans have seized their nets and other fishing gear, one resident of the area told RFA\u2019s Tibetan Service.\n\u201cWhen the Tibetan activists take away the fishing nets and hand them over to the police, this results in disputes with the fishermen,\u201d RFA\u2019s source said, speaking on condition of anonymity.\nChina\u2019s central government has declared the area of Qinghai Lake, also called Kokonor, a tourist area and the lake\u2019s fish a protected species, and have promised that anyone caught fishing in the lake will be punished according to the law, the source said.\n\u201cBut since the fishermen have good relations with the local police, they are quickly set free, while the Tibetans are held for questioning. Some of the local activists have been held for several days on charges of bad behavior, though most are released after being questioned for a few hours.\u201d\nOne activist had recently been held for four days, and was asked if he and his group had sent pictures or video clips to contacts outside the country, and whether they were being organized and directed by outside forces, the source said.\n\u201cThe authorities are angry with the local activists and accuse them of interfering with their own mandate to conserve and protect the environment of the lake, telling them they are turning the poaching issue into a big deal and are blowing it out of proportion,\u201d he said.\nAlso speaking to RFA, a second Tibetan source said that teams of volunteers from many communities around the lake have been working around the clock to stop fishing in the lake.\nDefending a sacred lake\n\u201cWe confiscate fishermen\u2019s nets and their other gear and hand them over to the police,\u201d the source said, adding, \u201cBut we\u2019re the only ones who get in trouble.\u201d\n\u201cTibetans are against fishing in the lake because of their religious beliefs. They consider it a sacred lake,\u201d the source said, also speaking on condition he not be named.\n\u201cThere are many Tibetan monasteries around the lake area, and Tibetans traditionally do not eat fish,\u201d he said.\nIncidents of illegal fishing have increased in recent years around Qinghai Lake, with local Tibetans stepping up monitoring activities in response, sources told RFA in earlier reports.\nDirectives from China\u2019s central government urging protection of Tibet\u2019s vulnerable environment are often flouted at the local level by Han Chinese migrants to the area, experts say.\nSoutheast Asia's Tigers Show Slight Revival But Remain Under Pressure\nPaper Mill Asks For Time to Deal With Pollution in Laos\u2019 Savannakhet Province",

However, in recent years has developed its tourist infrastructure and it has evolved into a tourist resort.\nBesides, it is built close to the sea and the long beach of Soroni is a pole of attraction for visitors.\nBeyond the beach has countless natural attractions and important historical monuments such as the ancient Kamiros and historic monasteries as the Monastery of Agios Soula, which is very close to the village.\nPeople believe that the water that flows into the cave of the monastery has healing properties. Also, there you meet sports facilities (soccer field, basketball, tennis), park road safety and a rudimentary race course. There is also a deer park.",

        "raw_content": "Sex crimes charges filed against Durham man\nOn behalf of Roberts Law Group, PLLC posted in Sex Crimes on Friday, November 13, 2015.\nA 25-year-old man from Durham, North Carolina, has been charged with multiple sex crime offenses after police say he set up a meeting on an Internet dating site. The boy he was allegedly meeting was only 15 years old.\nWhile investigators won't discuss the case details, the man has been charged with taking indecent liberties with a child, providing beer or wine to a juvenile, statutory rape/sex offense with someone under 16, kidnapping and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. He is currently being held on $1 million bail.\nThe name of the Internet dating site was not released, nor was the date when the alleged meeting took place. The man is also facing a Wake County indictment for DWI. He was arrested on March 15 for that offense.\nWhile it can be difficult to hear or read about crimes involving children, it is important to remember that each person charged with a crime is innocent until -- and only if -- he or she is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in court. With sex offenses, though, it's common for the media to assume someone is guilty, which can cause serious harm to his or her reputation, job prospects and family relationships.\nAn experienced criminal defense attorney can help those charged with sex crimes understand the possible defense options for their case. While each case is different, a strong defense may help a judge or jury see that a defendant is not guilty. To learn more about how to develop such a defense, speak with your defense attorney.\nSource: The News & Observer, \"Durham man accused of using dating site to meet boy, 15,\" Nov. 12, 2015",

Although being a photographer takes much of my time, I've always been interested in the origins of things\u2014and that's no exception for Eagle Rock. Eagle Rock Valley was a rural area once far removed from the bustling city of Los Angeles. In those early days, Eagle Rock was covered by the Gates Strawberry Ranch, worked by Chinese laborers (not many photographers in that group), which had replaced the grazing pastures of the Rancho San Rafael once owned by the Verdugo family. I only wish there were photographers (and cameras) around at that time who would have photographed this area of what is now known as Eagle Rock. While taking a look at my portrait photography and specialties as an event photographer, please check out a few of my wedding photography galleries. One of the best local wedding venues is the Center for the Arts (where I've worked before).",

        "raw_content": "How Old Is Page Turner On 'Flip Or Flop Nashville'? Page & DeRon Have Known Each Other For Years\nAs host of Flip or Flop Nashville, Page Turner seems to have accomplished a lot: she had a successful career in real estate that she was able to parlay into a popular reality TV gig. But lest you begin to feel like a flop for not having done as much at her age, it begs the question: how old is Page Turner on Flip or Flop Nashville?\nThough her exact birthday is difficult to track down, Page is 45 years old according to a post she made on Instagram. One of the popular social media trends of early 2019 was for users to post pictures of themselves in both 2009 and 2019, thus revealing how much change the last decade had wrought. Page posted a picture of herself at age 35 and now, captioning it, \"So... How'd I do?\" She accompanied the photo with an emoji of a woman tossing up her hands in an indecisive shrug. And it's clear why: Page barely looks any different now than she did at the start of the decade. Her 2009-era fashion isn't even embarrassing, which it supremely unfair.\nIf Page is 45 now, that means she was born in 1974, though the month and date are still something of a mystery.\nThese days, Page hosts Flip or Flop Nashville alongside her ex-boyfriend DeRon Jenkins. She handles the real estate part of the house-flipping endeavor, while DeRon uses his construction skills to lead the renovation. Together, they make a pretty good team, even though it might seem odd at first for exes to work together so well. The fact that they've known each other for a very long time surely helps. In fact, it seems like they met not long before Page's 2009 photo.\nIn an interview with HGTV, Page revealed that she and DeRon met ten years ago when she was showing a house to a client. DeRon happened to be the builder. They hit it off right away, though work was always mixed in to their personal relationship. Page became DeRon's real estate agent before they started dating. She explained that while they didn't necessarily click as a couple, they did so well building, selling, and rehabbing homes that they decided to stay together professionally.\nWhen she's not working, Page is mother to three daughters: Qai, Zaire, and Quincy. On Instagram, she shared a little bit more about her personal journey; she revealed that she was born and raised in Los Angeles, a place she loved, but chose to move to Nashville in 2000 with her kids. It was a place where she barely knew anyone, but it turned out to be the right choice for her. Now she has her own series focused entirely on the city, which may not have come to fruition if she hadn't decided to make it her home all those years ago.\nYou can catch Flip or Flop Nashville every Thursday on HGTV, where Page and DeRon will be turning troublesome houses into whole new homes every week.",

        "title": "Is Hammond University Real? The 'House Of Cards' Assassination Attempt Isn't Very Realistic",
        "raw_content": "Is Hammond University Real? The 'House Of Cards' Assassination Attempt Isn't Very Realistic\nEarly on in season four of House of Cards, Frank Underwood is shot during a campaign stop at Hammond University, in Washington, D.C. But is Hammond University real? Not at all. Which is interesting, because House of Cards usually tries to be pretty realistic in mirroring real-life America. They even use Wolf Blitzer of CNN in some important moments to show when some scandal is taking over the news cycle. But there is no college or university named Hammond in D.C., although there is a Hammond, Louisanna, which is the hometown of publicly funded Southeastern Louisanna University. So it's more of a mashup location than anything else.\nSetting the assassination attempt in D.C. though was important for a few plot points. To start, his campaign stops are very realistic and follow the actual flow of the American primaries. If you recall, season three ended with Frank beating Heather Dunbar in the Iowa caucuses. Season four picks up in New Hampshire and takes them to South Carolina. Just like in real life. Supposedly then, Frank is gearing up for his own Super Tuesday. Washington D.C. doesn't vote on Super Tuesday, but usually later in the year (in real life, the District's primary is on June 14 this year).\nAs politicians do, though, he's just fitting in as many appearances and rallies as he can. Hopefully some of those students are voting absentee in their home states. The hospital to which Underwood is transported to isn't real either \u2014 Jefferson Memorial Hospital doesn't exist in D.C. (though there is one in Philadelphia.) If a President is sick while at the White House or in town, he'd probably go to the Walter Reed Medical Center or one of the university hospitals. When President Obama had a sore throat a few years ago, he was whisked away to Walter Reed. But judging from the set \u2014 Jefferson Memorial looks like the kind of fancy hospital fit for a president.\nHowever, in holding up the \"be as realistic as possible\" ethos, the news report of Underwood's shooting is done by another famous anchor, former Good Morning America and World News' anchor Charlie Gibson, who on House of Cards is seen hosting the international KBTG News hour (a fake news program).\nscreengrab/Netflix\nGibson aside, it's possible that House of Cards wanted the rest of the settings to be as fake as possible \u2014 in the Internet age it would be easy to record Wolf Blitzer fake reporting the news of an assassination attempt on the American president and pass it around. There might be a reason they save CNN for later when they're reporting on identifying a fake suspect, right? Netflix doesn't want a War of the Worlds situation on their hands.\nBut there are lots of unrealistic plot points and improbably settings on television. If Frank was talking about Georgetown University, for example, we'd all be complaining that it would be unlikely security was so lax on such a huge campus, right? Just because House of Cards seem eerily probable, that doesn't mean they don't need fake settings sometimes. Just roll with it.\nCorrection: An earlier version of this article stated that the KBGT news anchor reporting the assassination attempt was a \"fake\" character, rather than former 'Good Morning America' anchor Charlie Gibson. It has been updated to reflect those changes, and we regret the error.",

It's about the artistic process.\nYou may have never picked up a game console in your life, but there's universal access thanks to compelling stories in Indie Game: The Movie.\n[A] smart, involving documentary...\n\"Indie Game: The Movie\" lays bare the passion behind the pixels, revealing the sweat, tears and sleep deprivation that go into trying to make the latest gaming sensation.\nThis is a movie about a subculture, made for that subculture; only hard-core Xboxers need apply.\nWhile it's wonderful that the film is able to shine a light on an exciting group of innovators as they come into their own, Swirsky and Pajot should get equal recognition for capturing the moment as it's happening.\nAptly demonstrates just how much they are willing to sacrifice to that end, bearing hardship and putting lives on pause to reach that final product of a completed game.\nNicola Balkind\nIt gives an insight into the creative process and the drive and passion necessary to produce something you want to share with the world.\nCompelling from start to finish, the movie is a real eye-opener for the uninitiated as it cogently makes the argument that video games deserve to be taken as seriously as movies, novels, paintings and more esteemed artistic disciplines.\nWatching [a programmer] reboot a computer at a trade show over and over again was hardly what I'd call stirring cinema.\nAug 25, 2012 | Rating: 5/10\nThe film becomes a cheerleader for its subjects, which limits its ability to understand them.\nAudience Reviews for Indie Game: The Movie\nInspiring, terrifying, and almost deadly to view (to a fault), \"Indie Game: The Movie\" is a captivating documentary about the lives of three separate independent video game design companies who are all in the process of getting their game into the market. If you ever play a platform game online and say that it sucks, I highly recommend that you watch this film before ever saying such things again. This film will not change the fact that some games out there are dreadfully bad, but it will definitely make you reconsider whether or not you want to just rip it apart. This film has given me more insight to the video game industry than I had ever known throughout my lifetime. Beautifully shot and incredibly displaying these stressful stories, this is one of my favourite documentaries to date. I loved every aspect of it. My only issue with the film is that it may be a little repetitive with it's location shots, and it's editing is great, but it feels quick at times. Every emotional moment that needed to be captured, was, and I really appreciated the time they took to show us that. I love this movie!\nAn insightful and obliterating documentary on a subject that many express interest in but know little about the processes of. Game design is such a slow, intricate, and time consuming process, and needs an effort and financial push that seems obscene. The film itself follows three game designers, one of which has already released his award winning and massively popular game \"Braid.\" His commentary flits through the story as someone who has gone through the world of indie games, the publication, and the backlash when the public he thought he would have an open dialogue with shut him down. His story is prevalent for the first third of the film, but he quickly disappears in the fray of the other two designers, blooming in the community as they newly release their games. One designer is French Canadian Phil Fish, who gained notoriety for having a slow game production and not coming out with his highly anticipated \"Fez.\" Fish toils alone in an office in Quebec as he tries to finish the game design for something he both reviles and loves. He swears like a sailor, has panic attacks at every possible junction of the development, and tries to get himself out there once more. Much better off are two designers who are about to launch their game \"Super Meat Boy.\" They seem to be the main emphasis, because each of them is quite interesting and have created success from their indie beginnings. Tommy Refenes is suicidal, depressed, and anxious about the release. He cares about his parents and seriously worries us, the audience, as we watch his life slip into isolation. His partner Edmund McMillen is charismatic, confident, and obviously creative. The contrast between them shows a disconnect from reality most designers go through. The film is beautifully shot, the interviews are always interesting, and the way each designer describes their process and the connection to their audience is eye opening. It drags in the middle and doesn't follow as many game designers as it should, but it's entertaining and insightful about gaming and designing as well as entertaining because the subjects are so flawed and altogether manic and suicidal most of the time. Truly original and groundbreaking in the field of documentaries.\n\"If you don't see a vulnerability in somebody, you're probably not relating with them on a very personal level.\" A documentary that follows the journeys of indie game developers as they create games and release those works, and themselves, to the world. REVIEW This movie is a fascinating look into the lives of people who are putting everything on the line for the purpose of developing a game, and it gives due respect to a craft that really gets none from the average person. \"Indie Game\" displays the passion that these developers have - on more than one occasion, more than one of them contemplates suicide, with Phil Fish coming off as particularly passionate and psychotic. One problem that I have, though, is that the movie follows three games to begin with: \"Super Meat Boy\" (Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes), \"Fez\" (Phil Fish ), and \"Braid\" (Jonathan Blow), but since \"Braid\" had already been released, it is basically dropped from the second half of the movie as it focuses more on the deadline pressures of the other two games. Having recently read a fascinating interview with Jonathan Blow, the themes and tropes in this games are incredibly interesting, and the movie makes no effort to discuss them in anyway (though, funnily, it does display his frustration at the fact that nobody understood \"Braid\" upon release). Mr. Blow also has an interesting take on the video game industry, and I would have liked to see his, as well as the other developers' opinions on it, further than \"Call of Duty sucks\". Still a good movie that video-game lovers will eat up and that non-video game fans should watch to get a little insight into how games are made, the pressures that are felt, etc.\nMan. This movie came out of left-field. I had never heard of it before until a friend recommended that I check it out. Boy am I glad that I did. Indie Game is a fantastic look at the independent world of game development. Directors Lisanne Pajot and James Swirsky expertly establish the characters and what is at stake in this world that I frankly knew nothing about. The production value is top-notch as well and the interview footage is mixed with meditative shots of the world beyond the developer's screen. Most importantly, it puts a face to this art form. In this world of instant digital gratification, with millions of videos and games all vying for our short attention spans, it is an important reminder that there are still those out there who still put their souls into these products. In short, it is the best anti-piracy add ever created. Akin to the desire to shoot to the last page of a great thriller in order to find out the identity of the killer, it took everything in me not to google the names of these people I was seeing on screen. For that, I salute the filmmakers for making me care so much for a craft that I originally thought I cared so little for.\nIndie Game: The Movie Quotes",

        "raw_content": "Your choice of attorney to represent your interests during a birth injury case could mean the difference between successful negotiations or expensive, ongoing litigation. Please contact our firm today to schedule a consultation with a personal injury attorney who can provide a clear explanation of your legal rights and options.\nBirth Injuries Resource Links\nProvides doctor-approved health information about children from before birth through adolescence.\nThe Food and Drug Law Institute\nExamines the laws, regulations and policies related to drugs, medical devices, other health care technologies and foods.\nProvides information, links and resources on cerebral palsy.\nNon-profit organization providing patient safety literature, research, policy initiatives and more.\nConsumer information for women: Pregnancy\nInformation provided by the Food and Drug Administration on topics important to women expecting a child or trying to become pregnant. Some topics include the use of misoprostol during delivery, food safety, and the use of medications during pregnancy.\nBirth Injuries - An Overview\nWhen having a child, the last thing parents want or need to worry about is the possibility of their baby being harmed during the delivery. While most births go smoothly, some have complications. Birth injuries can range from minor, like bruising, to a life-altering diagnosis of cerebral palsy. If your child was injured at birth, contact Roxanne Conlin & Associates, P.C. in Des Moines, IA, to learn more about your legal options. A lawyer experienced in birth injury litigation can help you understand your rights.\nBirth injuries vary in severity and type. While many will correct themselves within the first months to year after delivery, not all of them do. In serious cases, the baby can suffer permanent injury. Many birth injuries result from the delivery itself as the baby makes its way down the birth canal. But some birth injuries occur when the treating physician fails to adequately assess or respond to conditions or complications during a woman's pregnancy or delivery.\nSome types of birth injuries include:\nForcep injuries - lacerations, bruising\nSubconjunctival hemorrhage - burst blood vessels in the baby's eye that normally clear up\nCaput succedaneum - bruising or swelling of the baby's scalp\nCephalohematoma - collection of blood under the baby's periosteum, a tissue that covers the bones in the head\nFacial paralysis - caused by excessive pressure on the face during delivery\nFractures - of the collarbone, limbs or head\nErb's palsy - stretching or tearing of the nerves that control movement in the arms, hands and fingers\nCerebral palsy - damage to the areas of the brain that control muscle function and movement, can be caused by a lack of oxygen during delivery.\nBirth injuries are different from birth defects. Birth injuries occur during difficult deliveries in which something goes wrong - whether the child is in a breech position, is too large to move through the birth canal or suffers some other distress. Birth defects are caused by some factor before or during pregnancy, such as a genetic disorder, the mother's use of illegal drugs, alcohol or tobacco, or by some prescription medications.\nIn a birth injury case, several parties may share liability for the injury to your child. The doctor or team of doctors who delivered the child may be liable for failing to follow the standard of care during your delivery. The hospital, nurses and other care providers, such as interns, residents, techs and nursing aids, also may be named parties for their actions. If the doctor is part of a private practice, the practice also may be named in the suit in certain situations. If a medication prescribed by your doctor and correctly taken by you led to a birth injury or birth defect, the manufacturer of the medication may be named in a products liability suit. Your attorney will determine which parties may be subject to liability based upon the facts and laws governing your situation.\nProving a Birth Injury Case\nTo prevail in a birth injury case, the plaintiff must prove:\nThe appropriate standard of care (the type of care and skill provided by the average doctor in the same or similar circumstances)\nThe doctor failed to adhere to the established standard of care\nThe child suffered a birth injury\nBut for the doctor's failure to adhere to the standard of care, the child would not have been injured\nThe plaintiff must show that it is more likely than not that the birth injury occurred because of the doctor's acts or omissions during the birth of the child. Failure on the part of the plaintiff to prove any one of these elements will result in the plaintiff losing his or her case.\nDefenses to a Birth Injury Claim\nThere are three common defenses used by physicians who are facing a medical malpractice suit for a birth injury:\nNo doctor-patient relationship. To maintain a medical malpractice suit, the doctor and patient had to have an established doctor-patient relationship. If the doctor did not provide treatment or care to the patient prior to an emergency delivery or C-section, it may be difficult for the plaintiff to prove a doctor-patient relationship existed. Some states have \"Good Samaritan Acts\" that shield doctors from liability for helping people in emergency situations.\nNo deviation from the standard of care. One element the plaintiff must prove in a birth injury claim is that the doctor deviated from the accepted standard of care. However, there may be more than one accepted standard of care. When there is more than one acceptable practice, the choice of the appropriate medical approach is left to the doctor's good faith judgment. In such a case, if the doctor chooses a different standard of care that was reasonable under the circumstances and an error occurs, that error may not rise to the level of negligence.\nThe doctor's negligence did not cause the injury. If the plaintiff establishes the standard of care and proves the doctor failed to adhere to that standard, the doctor may claim his or her negligence did not cause the child's injury. For example, the injury could have resulted from the independent actions of a nurse, a genetic disorder or an injury to the mother while pregnant.\nDamages in Birth Injury Cases\nThe child, mother and father may be entitled to damages stemming from a birth injury, including damages for:\nPermanent physical disability\nLost future wages of the child\nThe specific types of damages you may be entitled to will depend on the facts of your case and applicable state or federal law. An attorney experienced in birth injury cases can discuss your options for recovery in greater detail.\nSpeak to a Birth Injury Attorney\nDealing with a birth injury to a child is never easy and always emotional. While not all birth injuries are legally actionable, yours may be. Contact Roxanne Conlin & Associates, P.C. in Des Moines, IA, today to schedule a consultation with a medical malpractice lawyer to discuss your case.\nForceps injuries - lacerations, bruising\nNo feviation from the standard of care. One element the plaintiff must prove in a birth injury claim is that the doctor deviated from the accepted standard of care. However, there may be more than one accepted standard of care. When there is more than one acceptable practice, the choice of the appropriate medical approach is left to the doctor's good faith judgment.

        "title": "Neven Maguire's new series 'Irish Food Trails'",
        "raw_content": "Neven Maguire's new series 'Irish Food Trails'\nNeven Maguire's Irish Food Guide\nDonal O'Donoghue spoke to Neven Maguire about Irish Food Trails, his work ethic and the impact of Brexit in the RT\u00c9 Guide. Tune into Neven's Irish Food Trails tonight, Wednesday 18th on RT\u00c9 One at 7:30 pm.\nNeven Maguire is on holidays. This is a rare thing: like unearthing a white truffle or eating a bowl of bird\u2019s nest soup. The celebrity chef, though I suspect he would never call himself such, is one of the industry\u2019s hardest-working restaurateurs. Apart from his 13 cookbooks, umpteen TV shows and never-ending cookery demonstrations, Maguire is also usually hands-on at his restaurant, MacNean House in the north-western tip of Cavan. His philosophy is that if you\u2019re parting with your cash then the least he can do is be there to meet, greet and cook what you eat.\nBut it\u2019s early January, the restaurant is closed and Neven is on holidays in Thailand with wife\nAmelda and twins, Connor and Lucia. \u201cThey are all watching TV in the bedroom next door,\u201d says\nNeven as the clock sweeps towards midnight (well it is only after 4pm in Ireland!).\nWe are here to talk about TV and Maguire\u2019s latest, Neven\u2019s Irish Food Trails, which smartly follows last autumn\u2019s The Basque Country. So how many shows in total is it now Neven?\n\u201cOh God, ten TV series which means over 130 episodes including Christmas specials,\u201d he says. \u201cBut it\u2019s always the same message: good food and how to cook it.\u201d\nWith his latest, Maguire travels from the waters of the Shannon, and the deck of the hotel barge,\nthe MV Shannon Princess, to the pastures of west Cork and Glenilen Farmhouse, and beyond.\nIn many ways a companion piece to his journey through northern Spain, Irish Food Trails is a hymn to the best that the country has to offer, from someone who has long championed local produce and producers.\nMaguire also visits skilled artisans such as potter Nicholas Mosse and master cutler Rory Conner, gets to catch his fi rst crab off Castletownbere and tries his hand at glass-blowing\nin Jerpoint.\n\u201cIt was great fun,\u201d says Neven, who seems to enjoy life like few others. The show also looks picture postcard pretty and unsurprisingly the film-makers hope to sell it to the US.\n\u201cMy first ever stand-alone TV show was Moveable Feast but I never ever take it for granted,\u201d says Maguire (42), whose small-screen career started some 21 years ago with a cookery slot on RT\u00c9\u2019s afternoon show, Open House.\n\u201cIf I could encourage anyone into this job it would be great because it\u2019s a fabulous career and we have a huge shortage of chefs in Ireland,\u201d he says. \u201cThere is never a day that I go into my kitchen that I regret.\u201d\nHe calls MacNean House and Restaurant, an establishment that employs 70 people, including 14 chefs (the majority female), his \u2018baby\u2019. But Neven\u2019s late parents, Vera and Joe, were the pillars on which MacNean House was built. Those fledgling days in the late \u201960s (the Maguires purchased the premises in 1969) and early \u201970s were traumatic.\nThe restaurant was bombed twice and at one time there were some 60 guards stationed in the village. In 2001, the year that Maguire took over as head chef/ owner of the restaurant, his father Joe was killed in a car accident and four years ago his mother Vera died from cancer. Both are still vivid influences.\nLast year, Neven became an ambassador for the St James\u2019s Hospital charity, Target Lung Cancer,\nand the Maguire family (Neven, a twin, is one of nine children) meet up a few times every year, with guess-who usually cooking.\nAsk Maguire about the likely impact of Brexit on MacNean House, which is located in the village\nof Blacklion on the Cavan/Fermanagh border, and you get a positive response, albeit tinged with hope as much as expectation.\n\u201cIt\u2019s not impacting on my business at the moment and I\u2019m not sure if the experts even know what will happen,\u201d he says. \u201c\nWe can\u2019t go back to border checkpoints and I believe it will be all OK. We have 70 staff employed in Blacklion now, but no one really knows and nobody has a crystal ball. We can only hope they make the right decision. We have come a long way since the Troubles. The restaurant was closed from 1976 to 1989 and we don\u2019t want to go back there.\u201d\nTypically, Neven is forever looking forward, planning and preparing. Over the next two years, he has big plans for MacNean House, including a complete refurbishment of the kitchen and extra accommodation.\nHe says that his latest cookbook, Neven Maguire\u2019s Complete Family Cookbook, which was published last October, is set to become his second most successful publication after his Baby and Toddler Cookbook and he lists The French Laundry, Thomas Keller\u2019s restaurant in California, as top of his dining wish-list for 2017.\n\u201cAlthough I could list off another dozen places just as easily,\u201d says the man who doesn\u2019t have a bad word for anyone.It\u2019s near midnight in a hotel in Krabi, Thailand and Neven is still going strong. He might be on holiday but the chef inside is never off-duty.\n\u201cYes I can completely switch off,\u201d he says, even as he adds: \u201cAlthough I will do some Thai cooking classes this week because you never stop learning about food.\u201d\nIn April, Maguire travels to Italy to film his next TV series and his publishers, have already approached him about a possible new title. He finds it hard to refuse work because he has a niggling fear that hard times could be just around the corner.\n\u201cThere will be a day when the TV people and the book publishers won\u2019t come looking for you,\u201d he says. I suspect that will not be for some time yet.\nTonight's episode of Neven's Irish Food Trails:\nNeven boards the luxury hotel barge the Shannon Princess and sails from Lough Ree to Athlone and on to Clonmacnoise. In the boat\u2019s galley, Neven cooks up pork rogan josh with rice and cucumber rahita. Next stop is Clonmel, Co Tipperary and the James Whelan Butcher Academy. Finally, Neven heads to the 1826 Adare restaurant, where chef Wade Murphy shares a recipe for rump of lamb with sheep cheese polenta chips, cavolo nero and salsa verde.\nTune into Neven's Irish Food Trails tonight, Wednesday 1 January on RT\u00c9 One at 7:30 pm.\nNeven's Irish Food Trails",

        "title": "Andrew Kalley: Full Throttle On & Off The Course \u2013 Rudy Project North America",
        "raw_content": "Andrew Kalley: Full Throttle On & Off The Course\nPosted by Simone Cordery-Cotter on April 20, 2015\nAndrew Kalley is an elite triathlete and coach with NYC-based Full Throttle Endurance. Following stellar performances at both USAT Nationals in Milwaukee and ITU Worlds in Edmonton last year, Andrew was diagnosed with cancer in December 2014. However, as you might expect from a triathlete, he\u2019s battling like a true champion\u2026 attacking this thing with everything he\u2019s got.\nThanks for the time, Andrew, and best of luck with your continued recovery!!\nWhat\u2019s your background and how did you get into triathlon?\nI\u2019ve been a personal trainer since 2002, and around \u201806 I was kind of looking for something new to change things up. I thought I\u2019d do a triathlon as a one-time thing, just for something to do. I was doing spin classes and swimming on my own despite no prior experience. I was a decent runner but had only run for conditioning and had never done races. I then met Scott Berlinger (in a prior life the American Gladiator known as \u201cViper\u201d) with the Full Throttle Endurance team, and I started going to practices. By placing and winning my AG at some races that first season, it was clear that there was some potential there. I quickly got hooked on the competition and the training, and the rest is history. I got more and more involved with Full Throttle and eventually became a coach with the team in addition to what I was doing as a trainer. It\u2019s an added niche to the strength and weight loss training that I do.\nWhat can you tell us about the Full Throttle Endurance Team?\nWe have a very unique program in which we\u2019re able to train at a facility (Chelsea Piers) in New York under one roof, with a pool, indoor track, CompuTrainers, a cycling studio with 40 bikes, treadmills, strength training, etc. Essentially it\u2019s ~100 athletes training together under one roof. All ages and fitness levels are represented, from elite athletes competing at the World Champs to average people doing it just for fitness. It\u2019s great to see so many different people pushing to their own potential at any given workout. We have a very good group and a great coaching staff with five full-time coaches.\nSounds like a great set up. Are there any drawbacks you face by training in NYC?\nChelsea Piers definitely helps a lot, and from a running standpoint there\u2019s the Hudson river path and Central Park, which are great. For outdoor rides crossing the George Washington bridge into Jersey provides the best riding for us. In the past we\u2019ve ridden in Central Park, but due to some issues with accidents the city has gotten more strict. Teams including ourselves are worried how police with radars will impact weekly bike training! Thankfully we have the CompuTrainers and indoor bikes, but we may be between a rock and a hard place. We\u2019ll have to play that by ear, as it\u2019s our first year experiencing this issue.\nYour win at the NYC Triathlon a few years back has to be considered the highlight of your career so far. What do you remember from that race?\nThat\u2019s definitely my most prestigious career win. Fortunately, the conditions really played to my favor. The weather was ominous and raining that morning. I came out of the water in a good position and hammered the bike despite the slick roads. I didn\u2019t hold back, and passed many people who were playing it a little more safe, giving me a good lead off the bike. I ran hard and was able to hold my position. The funny thing is the next year (2012) and shaved 3 min off and went sub 2:00, but placed 4th.\nOf the three disciplines, what\u2019s your biggest strength and weakness?\nMy bike and run are pretty much a toss up in terms of strength. I typically will average 24-26 mph over a 40k Olympic distance course, and run 33-35 min off the bike for 10K (mid 5-min. mile pace). My swim isn\u2019t terrible, but I\u2019ve come out of the water 4 min behind guys at times. Some days I can make it up and other days I run out of real estate.\nWhat are your plans for this season?\nWell, it\u2019s an interesting story but unfortunately I was recently diagnosed with colon cancer. In January I had surgery, and I\u2019m technically cancer free, but still on chemo. So far my body has responded really well. I would love to still be able to race later in the season, but no big plans for this year. My goals for this year will be more altruistic\u2026 I want to tell my story and hopefully give back by raising money on behalf of Sloan-Kettering, the hospital that\u2019s treating me. If you have a minute, please take a look at this website to read about my progress and learn more about these efforts.\nWow, so sorry to hear that, but glad to hear of your progress\u2026 what events led to your diagnosis?\nThe cancer diagnosis came less than 3 months after the World Champs when I was in peak form. There\u2019s also no family history that I\u2019m aware of, so it was basically really bad luck. I developed some symptoms that troubled me and decided it was time for a physical. Luckily I went when I did it, as the cancer was stage 3, so still treatable. Guys tend to be more hardheaded about getting checked, ignoring symptoms and being less likely to go to doctor when we should. Regardless of age and health these things can affect anybody. Fortunately I went when I did, but I wish I had gone sooner.\nHow has triathlon helped you thus far in your recovery?\nWell, for example I just rode for 75 min, trying to get my base back. For my own mental sanity it\u2019s been great. I\u2019m really grateful. In the grand scheme of things I\u2019ve responded well. Triathlon gives me something to keep me focused. I\u2019m confident I\u2019ll get back to full health, as there are lots of examples of others who have recovered fully. I\u2019m just trying to turn a negative into a positive and hope to inspire other people.\nThus far your best results have been at the Olympic distance\u2026 do you foresee yourself taking a run at long-course racing after you\u2019ve officially kicked cancer to the curb?\nI love the intensity of short-course racing, and at the end of day I feel Olympic is my sweet spot where I do best. That said, I have also wanted the challenge of moving to long-course and hopefully having similar success. I would love to potentially win my AG and qualify for Kona, and I\u2019m already setting my sights on a full Ironman in the future. I\u2019ve done a few 70.3s, and would like to add more to my schedule in future years. I still need to figure out that 13 mile run off the bike at the level I want to do it at.\nOur team is pretty split on short-course versus long-course, but we do have a lot who have caught the bug of going long.\nI just want to say thanks to Sloan-Kettering, as well as Full Throttle for being a very supportive group!\nStay up to date on Andrew\u2019s fight and cause\nPersonal Site: kalleyfitness.com\nAbout Triple Threat Triathlon\nTripleThreatTriathlon.com is a rapidly growing triathlon site centered around a US national team.

        "raw_content": "The School shield, shown above, is proudly displayed on the Saint Ronan\u2019s sweatshirt. It owes its roots to various other coats of arms: those of Pembroke College, Cambridge and the Crick family crest (Rev. Crick was the founder of Saint Ronan\u2019s in 1883).\nThe various elements and colours of the shield also have individual meaning and symbolism.\nIn the chief (top) part of the shield, there are two gold stars. The colour represents generosity and elevation of mind, while the stars themselves are a symbol of honour and achievement. Also in the chief area is a lion rampant, representing a willingness to serve king and country (the yellow lion rampant being one of the royal pennants). The background colour of this region is blue, which is chosen to represent truth and loyalty.\nLower in the shield we see a vert bend running from base sinister to chief dexter. The green colour is used to represent hope, joy and loyalty in love. On the bend itself there are three cinquefoils which also represent hope and joy. These and the body of the shield are white, a colour which represents peace and serenity.\nThe remaining symbols are two Cornish choughs (their legs and beaks are gules or red in early versions of the crest). These choughs represent a feeling of loyalty to friends and the quality of a strategist in battle, an appropriate mark for sporting colours, and are borrowed from the crest of Pembroke. On the Pembroke shield they are found in red, standing for warrior strength and magnanimity, but on our crest they are black, a colour that stands for constancy.\nFinally the school motto, Floreat St Ronan\u2019s. This is based on the Eton College motto, and means, of course, Let Saint Ronan\u2019s Flourish.",

        "raw_content": "Boy Scout Casey Chambers carries a rainbow flag during the San Francisco Gay Pride Festival in California June 29, 2014. (Reuters/Noah Berger)\nGay Boy Scout leader hired in New York: \"We said yes to him irrespective of his sexual orientation\"\nThe hire is in direct defiance of the national Boy Scout laws -- get ready for a showdown years in the making\nPascal Tessier is an 18 year-old Eagle Scout. He's also gay. He's going to work at a Boy Scout camp this summer. This should get interesting.\nOver the past few years, the Boy Scouts of America has been making slow, awkward strides towards revising its bizarre-for-this-century policy that \"We do not grant membership to individuals who are open or avowed homosexuals.\" Two years ago, the organization tested the waters when it issued a survey asking members how they'd respond in situations that \"could happen if the Boy Scouts keeps or changes its policy.\" It then followed up with the seemingly progressive edict that \"No youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone\" -- but failed to include that welcome to gay adults, stating firmly that \"The adult membership standard remains unchanged.\" And it added, \"Discussions of sexual preference have no place in Scouting. Nor is the promotion, overtly or otherwise, of sexual politics or preferences allowed in the program. Simply put, while a youth member may acknowledge his or her sexual preference, that acknowledgment may not reach the level of distraction, which may include advocacy, promotion, or the distribution of information of a sexual nature. This same standard applies to all youth members of the BSA, regardless of age or sexual preference.\" Look, it's fine if you want to cloak your institution in chastity, but could you do us all a favor and not pretend that there's a whole lot of concern about heterosexuals creating \"distraction\" with their \"sexual politics\"? Just admit that's not a codicil aimed at the straights.\nSince the policy change, the Boy Scouts' updated policy has become a contentious source of confusion -- it essentially says that gay Scouts must potentially forfeit their years of effort and commitment when they become adults. As former scout James Dale said in 2013, \"This doesn\u2019t give younger gays a future. The Boy Scouts are still sending a destructive message\u2026 You can't have half-discrimination.\" And Paul Tessier himself has very publicly made similar observations. When he became an Eagle Scout, he told the Washington Post, \"It\u2019s kind of a backhanded acceptance: We accept you for now.\" Then, when he turned 18 last year, he wrote a farewell letter to the Boy Scouts, thanking it for instilling his \"morals and values\" but acknowledging, \"I am no longer eligible to be a Boy Scout because I am gay. Despite the Boy Scouts\u2019 historic decision last year to open its ranks to gay youth, the Scouts still ban gay adults. And as of today, that means me.\"\nNow, however, he's trying to return to the Scouts \u2013 and to take a stand for other members \u2013 as a New York state affiliate is openly bringing on Mr. Tessier for the summer position. Greater New York Councils board member Richard G. Mason told the New York Times Thursday, \"This young man applied for a job. We judged his application on the merits. He\u2019s highly qualified. We said yes to him irrespective of his sexual orientation.\" The Boy Scouts' national spokesman, Deron Smith, has not yet officially commented on the move, but says, \"While we were only recently made aware of this issue, we are looking into the matter.\"\nThe hiring could provoke a legal showdown \u2013 or at least a back-to-the-drawing-board examination of the flawed current policy. Zach Wahls, executive director of Scouts for Equality, says that \"About 30 other councils across the country have publicly opposed the ban on gay adults. The Greater New York Councils is the first to actually publicly acknowledge that it had in fact hired a gay adult leader. A lot of councils have talked the talk. Now the New York Councils is walking the walk.\"\nEquality does not have a cutoff point. Acceptance isn't something to be grown out of, like a cast-off Cub Scout uniform. The Boy Scouts of America is now going to have its hand rightfully forced on that point. And the question it's going to be held accountable for is this \u2013 If you believed in a young man's character and capability two years ago, why wouldn't you be honored to have him working with you now?\nBoy Scouts Lgbt Pascal Tessier",

        "raw_content": "Sushi arts, performance organization shuts doors\nJANICE STEINBERG | SPECIAL TO THE U-T\nThe board of Sushi Contemporary Performance and Visual Arts, which has a 31-year history of presenting cutting-edge performance in San Diego, has decided to dissolve the organization.\nAfter 31 years of presenting cutting-edge performances, Sushi Contemporary Performance and Visual Arts shut down Thursday after its board of directors voted to dissolve the organization.\nBoard chairman Indra Gardiner Bowers relayed the news to the Union-Tribune Thursday, citing fallout from the recession as Sushi\u2019s biggest problem.\nSushi moved into a new space in the Icon Building on 11th Avenue downtown in late 2008. The move, which took place at the height of the recession, followed four years in which Sushi had no home.\nMany arts organizations made it through the downturn because they\u2019d done \u201ca lot of relationship-building that created a foundation for them to survive,\u201d Bowers said. \u201cThat\u2019s the piece that Sushi lost when it became homeless.\u201d\nAlthough Sushi reopened in December 2008 \u2014 with a performance by MacArthur genius award winner Guillermo G\u00f3mez-Pe\u00f1a \u2014 the new space presented challenges, financial and otherwise, from the beginning.\nFounder Lynn Schuette, who had returned as interim executive director to oversee the move, left after a few months. Patrick Stewart took over at the start of 2010 but moved into an advisory capacity this year.\nFor Schuette, staying afloat was always a struggle because of Sushi\u2019s uniquely edgy nature.\n\u201cSushi has a fabulous reputation, and people love living in a city with a place like Sushi, an icon of liberal culture,\u201d Schuette said. \u201c(But) over the years, I always called support of Sushi \u2018liberal lip service,\u2019 because when it really came down to it, donations were always limited to very small amounts. Everyone was incredibly supportive and gracious but not willing to pay for the reality of the vision.\u201d\nSushi brought San Diegans a substantial taste of the international performance art scene, including all of the NEA Four (Karen Finley, Tim Miller, Holly Hughes and John Fleck), who were vilified during the culture wars of the 1990s. Other notable Sushi alums are Eric Bogosian, Rachel Rosenthal, Joe Goode, Culture Clash and Whoopi Goldberg, then a young and relatively unknown actress.\nThe decision to dissolve came out of \u201cmany conversations, a lot of soul-searching and last-ditch meetings to try and pull it together,\u201d Bowers said.\nOne issue facing the board was what to do with the organization\u2019s archives, and that has led to a piece of good news: Board member Michael Horvat, who works at UCSD, has arranged for the archives to go to the UCSD Library\u2019s special collections.\nNews of Sushi\u2019s demise came as the Americans for the Arts, the nation\u2019s primary arts advocacy organization, gathered for its annual convention in San Diego on Thursday.\nLeaders of the organization, in a Union-Tribune article Thursday on the state of local arts funding, said that things are looking good for most arts organizations, but some are still on shaky ground.\n\u201cWe lost some very seminal institutions,\u201d said Randy Cohen, the Americans for the Arts\u2019 director of policy and research, in the Union-Tribune report. \u201cAnd some continue to be at risk.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "KCOY officials could not be reached for comment.\nCipolla has been in broadcasting for 25 years, starting out as a reporter for CNN and then at a CBS affiliate in San Diego. He began working at KSBY \u2014 an NBC affiliate \u2014 in 1989 as a weekend anchor and reporter, then moved in 1994 into the prime-time weekday anchor job, where he has remained ever since. For two years, from 2003 to 2005, he was also the station\u2019s news director, responsible for all the news.\nCipolla said the KSBY newsroom is different today from when he began there. For starters, there were a lot more reporters then, he said.\n\u201cIt was fun TV; I had a blast,\u201d he said. \u201cNow they (management) told me they\u2019re looking out for their business, and I know that advertising hasn\u2019t been there for any media. I understand that. I think that because of the cutbacks we\u2019ve had recently, that has affected the type and quality of our news coverage.\u201d\nNegotiations broke down when KSBY offered him a 40 percent cut in salary, which, he said, \u201cwas on top of a 25 percent pay cut I had already taken three years ago.\u201d\n\u201cI really couldn\u2019t do that to my family,\u201d he said. He declined to disclose his salary.\nKSBY General Manager Evan Pappas called Cipolla \u201ca nice guy\u201d and \u201ca great professional for many years.\u201d He said he was surprised at Cipolla\u2019s comments to The Tribune.\n\u201cWe are very disappointed that Tony has decided to leave KSBY after 20 years,\u201d he wrote in an e-mailed statement to The Tribune. \u201cAlthough we understand why he is leaving, we believe his comments are misleading. The bottom line is Tony continues to want to be paid the salaries of both a news director and a news anchor. However, he has not served in the role of a news director since 2005. We thought that his request was unfair to both his colleagues in the newsroom and the company.\u201d\nPappas also emphasized that economics and changing consumer behaviors have required KSBY to transform itself into a multimedia journalism enterprise \u2014 extending beyond TV into online and social media. This is a change for long-term anchors, such as Cipolla, but Pappas said the quality of KSBY\u2019s coverage has not suffered.\n\u201cThis decision wasn\u2019t based on revenues going up or down,\u201d he stressed. \u201cIt\u2019s based on Tony being paid for two jobs instead of one.\u201d\nPappas would not address questions about the station\u2019s revenues or profit.\nCipolla stressed he did not want to disparage the place he has called home for so long.\n\u201cI have too many good memories,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve been lucky, traveled to China and Cuba and sent back reports. I was able to interview my idol, Tom Brokaw, a couple years ago.\u201d\nThen he added, \u201cI know this sounds very sweet and sappy, but honestly, the relationships I developed with people in the community, it\u2019s been great, that\u2019s why I\u2019ve stayed here. I love this area. I really like the people I work with at the station.\u201d\nCipolla\u2019s co-anchor, Jeanette Trompeter, said she was sad to hear the news. \u201cHe\u2019s fun, professional and smart, and we\u2019ve had fun reliving old memories,\u201d she said.\nTrompeter was a news producer and general news assignment reporter at the station when Cipolla started working at KSBY in 1989. She then went on to anchor positions in Des Moines, Iowa, and Minneapolis before returning to KSBY to replace Shari Small as Cipolla\u2019s co-anchor in January. Richard Gearhart, a morning anchor, will fill in on the nightly newscasts until a replacement for Cipolla can be found, Pappas said.\nCipolla has received three Golden Mike awards from the Radio and Television News Association. In addition, the Associated Press has recognized him with five awards. Cipolla has also been honored with the prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award for excellence in broadcast journalism.\nCipolla and his wife, Karen, have three children \u2014 Anthony (A.J.), 14, Chiara, 12, and Dominic, 7. They live in Pismo Beach.",

        "raw_content": "Chris Hansen-Nelson MFA '06:\nMember at Large, Alumni Association Board\nTo the class of 2016\u2014welcome to the Sarah Lawrence graduate school alumni family.\nWhen I was at Sarah Lawrence 10 years ago, I had to good fortune to work on the Sarah Lawrence Poetry Festival. One year, I was asked to drive a famous poet back and forth from Manhattan to the campus. As a poet in the Graduate Creative Writing Program, it was, of course, a wonderful experience.\nAnd as we were walking back to the car at the end of the day, she turned to me and proclaimed that she loved the big New York public university that had been her home for many years, but she couldn\u2019t help but envy the deep sense of community that she found at Sarah Lawrence.\nWell, I am here to tell you that that community can continue after graduation. You are not alone.\nRepresenting the Graduate branch of the Sarah Lawrence Alumni Association, I am here to invite you to join us. Seek us out on the Sarah Lawrence website. Check out all the amazing events we organize every year across the country, in NY, Philly, Boston, DC, and LA that keep the Sarah Lawrence community alive and kicking.\nSome of the wildest, most alive, most human people I have met in my life have come from my years at Sarah Lawrence and through Sarah Lawrence, after graduation. It is a community that breathes a rather rarified air and I encourage you to continue to tap into it. Join us. Help us continue to build the bonds of that community that served us so well while we were in school and that can continue to serve us.\nSo, congratulations on your graduation and welcome to the graduate alumni wing of the family.",

        "title": "Ex-HKU medical school dean jailed for 25 months | South China Morning Post",
        "raw_content": "Ex-HKU medical school dean jailed for 25 months\nThe former dean of the University of Hong Kong's medical school was sentenced to more than two years in jail yesterday for inducing patients to make donations and payments of almost HK$4 million to his company.\nSentencing Professor Lam Shiu-kum, 66, in the District Court, chief judge Patrick Li Hon-leung said Lam, 'a man of exceptionally good character', was guilty of a serious breach of trust.\n'Given the defendant's position, this court expected the highest standard of integrity. Regrettably, the conduct of the defendant was a serious breach of the trust owed to his patients, the faculty, and the Hospital Authority,' the judge said.\nLam who had appeared calm throughout the hearing of his case, shook his head after hearing the sentence while his wife and one of his daughters burst into tears. In sentencing, the judge adopted a starting point of five years but reduced it by 20 months for Lam's guilty plea, nine months in acknowledgement of his good character and six for the full restitution he had made, leaving 25 months.\n'Lam was an academic of great international acclaim and he was the doyen of gastroenterology,' the judge said, also recognising Lam's research, which had had a profound effect on the treatment and prevention of duodenal ulcers and gastric cancer.\nThe disgraced professor pleaded guilty on Tuesday to one count of misconduct in public office. Thirty counts of fraud and three counts of theft were left on file.\nThe court heard earlier that Lam, a graduate of the school, had worked his way up from intern to dean. His distinguished career had earned him many awards, including an OBE for services to medicine, and he was the only person in Asia to become a Master of the American College of Gastroenterology.\nIn mitigation on Tuesday, Gary Plowman SC, submitted 22 letters from eminent people including former chief executive Tung Chee-hwa, doctors, professors, senior counsel and patients, who all spoke highly of Lam's character and his remarkable contribution to medicine.\nPlowman said Lam's remarkable and pioneering research, including the world's first lengthy study on the effectiveness of chemoprevention in fighting gastric cancers in Fujian , had saved millions of lives.\nDescribing Lam as a 'conscientious and caring doctor' yesterday, Li said he had taken all these matters into account.\nBut he rejected Lam's claim that part of the embezzled sum was used to maintain the network his position required and that he had bent the rules to create flexibility and cover expenses he could not officially claim. He said he did not find this convincing in view of the large amount involved and found it 'disappointing' that Lam had given no further explanation about the money paid to his company.\nThe court heard that between September 1, 2003, and January 26, 2007, Lam induced 12 of his patients at Queen Mary Hospital to make payments totalling HK$130,000 to his company, Gastrointestinal Research. The patients had received demand notes and receipts with the university's and hospital's letterheads.\nHe also procured three patients to make donations of HK$3.8 million to his company and failed to disclose a conflict of interest between his roles as dean of the school and owner of the company. Bank records revealed that about HK$3 million had been transferred from Gastrointestinal Research accounts to those of Lam, his wife Lam Chan Wing-khi, and a friend.\nLi said he took a 'serious view' of the fact that Lam had attempted to cover up his misconduct when the matter was first being investigated by the university. The university had been alerted to the matter after a patient who had already paid Lam, got a bill from the hospital and queried it. Lam had then tried to persuade the patient to say the first payment in December 2006 was a donation.\nLeaving court, Lam's wife, faced with a media pack, said: 'I am already unhappy, please don't ask me any more questions. Excuse me.'\nOutside court, one of Lam's lawyers, Keith Yeung SC, said an appeal might be discussed.",

In general, as debtors-in-possession, we were authorized under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to continue to operate as an ongoing business, but were not to engage in transactions outside the ordinary course of business without the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court.\nOn January 23, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court approved our Second Amended Joint Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization (the \"Plan\") under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and on January 30, 2012 (the \"Effective Date\") the Company emerged from the Chapter 11 Proceedings. On the Effective Date, the Plan became effective and the transactions contemplated by the Plan were consummated. Implementation of the Plan resulted primarily in a comprehensive refinancing of our debt. See Note 4.\nTNI Partners\nIn Tucson, Arizona, TNI, acting as agent for our subsidiary, Star Publishing Company (\u201cStar Publishing\u201d), and Citizen Publishing Company (\u201cCitizen\u201d), a subsidiary of Gannett Co. Inc., is responsible for printing, delivery, advertising, and circulation of the Arizona Daily Star as well as the related digital platforms and specialty publications. TNI collects all receipts and income and pays substantially all operating expenses incident to the partnership's operations and publication of the newspapers and other media.\nIncome or loss of TNI (before income taxes) is allocated equally to Star Publishing and Citizen.\nSummarized results of TNI are as follows:\nOperating expenses, excluding workforce adjustments, depreciation and amortization\nCompany's 50% share of operating income\nLess amortization of intangible assets\nEquity in earnings of TNI\nStar Publishing's 50% share of TNI depreciation and certain general and administrative expenses associated with its share of the operation and administration of TNI are reported as operating expenses (benefit) in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. These amounts totaled $(207,000) and $84,000 in the 13 weeks ended March 25, 2012 and March 27, 2011, respectively and $(312,000) and $211,000 in the 26 weeks ended March 25, 2012 and March 27, 2011, respectively.\nOur impairment analysis resulted in pretax reductions in the carrying value of TNI totaling $11,900,000 in 2011. See Note 3.\nAnnual amortization of intangible assets is estimated to be $723,000 in the 53 week period ending March 2013, $468,000 in the 52 week period ending March 2014 and $418,000 in each of the 52 week periods ending March 2015, March 2016 and March 2017.\nMadison Newspapers, Inc.\nWe have a 50% ownership interest in MNI, which publishes daily and Sunday newspapers, and other publications in Madison, Wisconsin, and other Wisconsin locations, and operates their related digital platforms. Net income or loss of MNI (after income taxes) is allocated equally to us and The Capital Times Company (\u201cTCT\u201d). MNI conducts its business under the trade name Capital Newspapers.\nSummarized results of MNI are as follows:\nEquity in earnings of MNI\nChanges in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:\nGoodwill, gross amount\nIdentified intangible assets consist of the following:\nNonamortized intangible assets:\nCustomer and newspaper subscriber lists\nNoncompete and consulting agreements\nIn assessing the recoverability of goodwill and other nonamortized intangible assets, we make a determination of the fair value of our business. Fair value is determined using a combination of an income approach, which estimates fair value based upon future revenue, expenses and cash flows discounted to their present value, and a market approach, which estimates fair value using market multiples of various financial measures compared to a set of comparable public companies in the publishing industry. A non-cash impairment charge will generally be recognized when the carrying amount of the net assets of the business exceeds its estimated fair value.\nThe required valuation methodology and underlying financial information that are used to determine fair value require significant judgments to be made by us. These judgments include, but are not limited to, long term projections of future financial performance and the selection of appropriate discount rates used to determine the present value of future cash flows. Changes in such estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results.\nWe analyze goodwill and other nonamortized intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. Such indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, changes in business climate and operating or cash flow losses related to such assets.\nWe review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. We assess recoverability of these assets by comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or asset group with their carrying amount. The impairment amount, if any, is calculated based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.\nDue primarily to the difference between our stock price and the per share carrying value of our net assets, we analyzed the carrying value of our net assets in 2011. Continued deterioration in our revenue and the weak economic environment were also factors in the timing of the analysis. We concluded the fair value of our business did not exceed the carrying value of our net assets.\nAs a result, we recorded pretax, non-cash charges to reduce the carrying value of goodwill, nonamortized and\namortizable intangible assets in 2011. Additional pretax, non-cash charges were recorded to reduce the carrying value of TNI in 2011. We also recorded pretax, non-cash charges to reduce the carrying value of property and equipment in 2011. We recorded deferred income tax benefits related to these charges.\nA summary of impairment charges is included in the table below:\nNonamortized intangible assets\nInvestment in TNI\nFuture decreases in our market value, or significant differences in revenue, expenses or cash flows from estimates used to determine fair value, could result in additional impairment charges in the future.\nWe also periodically evaluate our determination of the useful lives of amortizable intangible assets. Any resulting changes in the useful lives of such intangible assets will not impact our cash flows. However, a decrease in the useful lives of such intangible assets would increase future amortization expense and decrease future reported operating results and earnings per common share.\nAnnual amortization of intangible assets for the 53 week period ending March 2013 and for each of the 52 week periods ending March 2014, March 2015, March 2016 and March 2017 is estimated to be $39,839,000, $38,633,000, $38,490,000, $37,572,000 and $36,309,000, respectively.\nAs discussed more fully below (and certain capitalized terms used below defined), in January 2012, in conjunction with the effectiveness of the Plan, we refinanced all of our debt. The Plan refinanced our then-existing credit agreement and extended the April 2012 maturity in a structure of first and second lien debt with the existing lenders. We also amended the Pulitzer Notes, and extended the April 2012 maturity with the existing Noteholders.\n1st Lien Agreement\nIn January 2012, we entered into a credit agreement (the \u201c1st Lien Agreement\u201d) with a syndicate of lenders (the \u201c1st Lien Lenders\u201d). The 1st Lien Agreement consists of a term loan of $689,510,000, and a new $40,000,000 revolving credit facility that was not drawn at closing. The revolving credit facility also supports issuance of letters of credit.\nDebt under the 1st Lien Agreement bears interest, at our option, at either a base rate or an adjusted Eurodollar rate (\u201cLIBOR\u201d), plus an applicable margin. The base rate for the facility is the greater of (a) the prime lending rate of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas at such time; (b) 0.5% in excess of the overnight federal funds rate at such time; or (c) 30 day LIBOR plus 1.0%. LIBOR loans are subject to a minimum rate of 1.25%. The applicable margin for term loan base rate loans is 5.25%, and 6.25% for LIBOR loans. The applicable margin for revolving credit facility base rate loans is 4.5%, and is 5.5% for LIBOR loans. At March 25, 2012, all borrowing under the 1st Lien Agreement is based on LIBOR at a total rate of 7.5%.\nAt March 25, 2012, the balance outstanding under the term loan is $674,500,000. We may voluntarily prepay principal amounts outstanding or reduce commitments under the 1st Lien Agreement at any time, in whole or in\npart, without premium or penalty, upon proper notice and subject to certain limitations as to minimum amounts of prepayments.\nWe are required to repay principal amounts, on a quarterly basis until maturity, under the 1st Lien Agreement. Principal payments are required quarterly beginning in June 2012, and total $5,000,000 in 2012, $11,000,000 in 2013, $12,750,000 in 2014, $13,500,000 in 2015 and $3,375,000 in 2016, prior to the final maturity.\nIn addition to the scheduled payments, we are required to make mandatory prepayments under the 1st Lien Agreement under certain other conditions, such as from the net proceeds from asset sales. The 1st Lien Agreement also requires us to accelerate future payments in the amount of our quarterly excess cash flow, as defined. The acceleration of such payments due to future asset sales or excess cash flow does not change the due dates of other 1st Lien Agreement payments prior to the December 2015 maturity.\n2012 payments made under the 1st Lien Agreement, and required to be made for the remainder of the fiscal year, are summarized as follows:\nExcess cash flow\nThere were no net principal payments made in 2012 under the previous credit agreement.\nThe 1st Lien Agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by all of our existing and future, direct and indirect subsidiaries in which we hold a direct or indirect interest of more than 50% (the \u201cCredit Parties\u201d); provided however, that our wholly-owned subsidiary Pulitzer Inc. (\u201cPulitzer\u201d) and its subsidiaries are not Credit Parties. The 1st Lien Agreement is secured by first priority security interests in the stock and other equity interests owned by the Credit Parties in their respective subsidiaries.\nThe Credit Parties have also granted a first priority security interest on substantially all of their tangible and intangible assets, and granted mortgages covering certain real estate, as collateral for the payment and performance of their obligations under the 1st Lien Agreement. Assets of Pulitzer and its subsidiaries, TNI, our ownership interest in, and assets of, MNI and certain employee benefit plan assets are excluded.\nThe revolving credit facility has super-priority security interest over all of the collateral securing the term loan under the 1st Lien Agreement, superior to that of the term loan lenders.\nCovenants and Other Matters\nThe 1st Lien Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for financing of its type. These financial covenants include a maximum total leverage ratio, as defined. The total leverage ratio is designed to assess the leverage of the Company, excluding Pulitzer, and does not reflect our overall leverage position due to lower leverage of Pulitzer. It is based primarily on the sum of the principal amount of debt under the 1st Lien Agreement, plus debt under the 2nd Lien Agreement, as discussed more fully below, which totals $849,500,000 at March 25, 2012, plus letters of credit and certain other factors, divided by a measure of trailing 12 month operating results, which includes distributions from MNI and other elements, but excludes the operating results of Pulitzer.\nOur actual total leverage ratio at March 25, 2012 under the 1st Lien Agreement was 6.8:1. Our maximum total leverage ratio covenant will decrease, in stages, from 10.0:1 at March 25, 2012 to 9.1:1 in December 2015. On a consolidated basis, using the definitions in the 1st Lien Agreement, our leverage ratio is 5.7:1 at March 25, 2012. This measure is not the subject of a covenant in any of our lending agreements.\nThe 1st Lien Agreement also includes a minimum interest expense coverage ratio, as defined, which is based on the sum of interest expense, as defined, incurred under the 1st Lien Agreement and 2nd Lien Agreement, divided by the same measure of trailing 12 month operating results discussed above. The interest expense coverage ratio is similarly designed to assess the interest coverage of the Company, excluding Pulitzer, and does not reflect our overall interest coverage position. Our actual interest expense coverage ratio at March 25, 2012 was 2.8:1. Our minimum interest expense coverage ratio covenant will decrease, in stages, from 1.5:1 at March 25, 2012 to 1.1:1 in December 2015.\nThe 1st Lien Agreement requires us to suspend stockholder dividends and share repurchases through December 2015. The 1st Lien Agreement also limits capital expenditures to $20,000,000 per year, with a provision for carryover of unused amounts from the prior year. Further, the 1st Lien Agreement restricts our ability to make additional investments, acquisitions, dispositions and mergers without the consent of the 1st Lien Lenders and limits our ability to incur additional debt. Such covenants require that substantially all of our future cash flows are required to be directed toward debt reduction or accumulation of cash collateral and that the cash flows of the Credit Parties are largely segregated from those of Pulitzer.\n2nd Lien Agreement\nIn January 2012, we entered into a second lien term loan (the \u201c2nd Lien Agreement\u201d) with a syndicate of lenders (the \u201c2nd Lien Lenders\u201d). The 2nd Lien Agreement consists of a term loan of $175,000,000.\nThe 2nd Lien Agreement bears interest at 15.0%, payable quarterly.\nPrincipal Payments and Redemption\nThe 2nd Lien Agreement requires no principal amortization, except in March 2017 if required for income tax purposes.\nThe 2nd Lien Agreement may not be redeemed prior to January 30, 2013. From that date until January 30, 2014, the 2nd Lien Agreement may be redeemed at 102% of the principal amount, at 101% thereafter until January 30, 2015 and at 100% thereafter until the April 2017 final maturity.\nThe 2nd Lien Agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the Credit Parties and by Pulitzer and its subsidiaries, other than TNI (collectively, the \"2nd Lien Credit Parties\"). The 2nd Lien Agreement is secured by second priority security interests in the stock and other equity interests owned by the 2nd Lien Credit Parties.\nThe 2nd Lien Credit Parties have also granted a second priority security interest on substantially all of their tangible and intangible assets, and granted second lien mortgages or deeds of trust covering certain real estate, as collateral for the payment and performance of their obligations under the 2nd Lien Agreement. Assets of TNI, our ownership interest in, and assets of, MNI and certain employee benefit plan assets are excluded.\nThe 2nd Lien Agreement has no affirmative financial covenants. Restrictions on capital expenditures, permitted investments, indebtedness and other provisions are similar to, but generally less restrictive than, those provisions under the 1st Lien Agreement.\n2nd Lien Lenders shared in the issuance of 6,743,640 shares of our Common Stock valued at $9,576,000, an amount equal to 13% of outstanding shares on a pro forma basis as of January 30, 2012. 2nd Lien Lenders also received $8,750,000 in the form of non-cash fees, which were added to and included in the principal amount of the second lien term loan.\nPulitzer Notes\nIn conjunction with its formation in 2000, St. Louis Post-Dispatch LLC (\"PD LLC\") borrowed $306,000,000 (the \u201cPulitzer Notes\u201d) from a group of institutional lenders (the \u201cNoteholders\u201d). The Pulitzer Notes were guaranteed by Pulitzer pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement with the Noteholders. The aggregate principal amount of the Pulitzer\nNotes was payable in April 2009.\nIn February 2009, the Pulitzer Notes and the Guaranty Agreement were amended (the \u201cNotes Amendment\u201d). Under the Notes Amendment, PD LLC repaid $120,000,000 of the principal amount of the debt obligation. The remaining debt balance of $186,000,000 was refinanced by the Noteholders until April 2012.\nIn January 2012, in connection with the Plan, we entered into an amended Note Agreement and Guaranty Agreement, which amended the Pulitzer Notes and extended the maturity with the Noteholders. After consideration of unscheduled principal payments totaling $15,145,000 ($10,145,000 in December 2011 and $5,000,000 in January 2012), offset by $3,500,000 of non-cash fees paid to the Noteholders in the form of additional Pulitzer Notes debt, the amended Pulitzer Notes had a balance of $126,355,000 in January 2012.\nThe Pulitzer Notes bear interest at 10.55%, increasing 0.75% in January 2013 and in January of each year thereafter.\nAt March 25, 2012, the balance of the Pulitzer Notes is $116,000,000. We may voluntarily prepay principal amounts outstanding under the Pulitzer Notes at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon proper notice, and subject to certain limitations as to minimum amounts of prepayments. The Pulitzer Notes provide for mandatory scheduled prepayments totaling $6,400,000 beginning in 2012.\nIn addition to the scheduled payments, we are required to make mandatory prepayments under the Pulitzer Notes under certain other conditions, such as from the net proceeds from asset sales. The Pulitzer Notes also require us to accelerate future payments in the amount of our quarterly excess cash flow, as defined. The acceleration of such payments due to future asset sales or excess cash flow does not change the due dates of other Pulitzer Notes payments prior to the final maturity in December 2015.\n2012 payments made under the Pulitzer Notes, and to be made for the remainder of the fiscal year, are summarized as follows:\nThe Guaranty Agreement provides that obligations under the Pulitzer Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by Pulitzer's existing and future subsidiaries other than TNI. The Pulitzer Notes are also secured by first priority security interests in the stock and other equity interests owned by Pulitzer in its subsidiaries other than TNI. Also, Pulitzer and each of its subsidiaries granted a first priority security interest on substantially all of its tangible and intangible assets, and granted first lien mortgages or deeds of trust covering certain real estate, as collateral for the payment and performance of their obligations under the Pulitzer Notes. Our ownership interest in TNI and certain employee benefit plan assets are excluded.\nThe Pulitzer Notes contain certain covenants and conditions including the maintenance, by Pulitzer, of minimum trailing 12 month EBITDA (minimum of $26,700,000 at March 25, 2012), as defined in the Guaranty Agreement, and limitations on capital expenditures and the incurrence of other debt.\nFurther, the Pulitzer Notes have limitations or restrictions on distributions, loans, advances, investments,\nacquisitions, dispositions and mergers. Such covenants require that substantially all future cash flows of Pulitzer are required to be directed first toward repayment of the Pulitzer Notes or accumulation of cash collateral and that cash flows of Pulitzer are largely segregated from those of the Credit Parties.\nThe 1st Lien Agreement, 2nd Lien Agreement and Pulitzer Notes contain cross-default provisions tied to each of the various agreements. Intercreditor agreements and an intercompany subordination agreement are in effect.\nCash payments to the Lenders, Noteholders and legal and professional fees related to the Plan are expected to total approximately $38,000,000, of which $6,273,000 was paid in 2011, $721,000 was charged to expense in 2011 and the remainder of which will be paid in 2012. In addition, previously capitalized financing costs of $4,514,000 at September 25, 2011 were charged to expense in 2012 prior to, or upon consummation of the Plan. Debt under the Plan was considered compromised. As a result, the 1st Lien Agreement, 2nd Lien Agreement and Pulitzer Notes were recorded at their respective present values, which resulted in a discount to the stated principal amount totaling $23,709,000. This amount is being amortized as a non-cash component of financial expense over the terms of the related debt. Such amounts are estimated to total $4,085,000 in 2012, $5,418,000 in 2013, $5,359,000 in 2014, $5,293,000 in 2015, $2,429,000 in 2016 and $1,125,000 in 2017.\nDebt is summarized as follows:\nInterest Rates (%)\nPrevious credit agreement:\nUnaccreted (unamortized) present value adjustment\nLess current maturities of debt\nCurrent amount of present value adjustment\nAt March 25, 2012, our weighted average cost of debt was 9.2%.\nAggregate maturities of debt total $5,000,000 for the remainder of 2012, $17,400,000 in 2013, $19,150,000 in 2014, $19,900,000 in 2015, $729,050,000 in 2016 and $175,000,000 in 2017.\nAt March 25, 2012, after consideration of letters of credit, we have approximately $29,602,000 available for future use under our revolving credit facility. Including cash, our liquidity at March 25, 2012 totals $59,257,000. This liquidity amount excludes any future cash flows. We expect all interest and principal payments due in 2012 will be satisfied by our continuing cash flows, which will allow us to maintain an adequate level of liquidity.\nThere are numerous potential consequences under the 1st Lien Agreement, 2nd Lien Agreement, and the Note and Guaranty Agreements related to the Pulitzer Notes, if an event of default, as defined, occurs and is not remedied. Many of those consequences are beyond our control. The occurrence of one or more events of default would give rise to the right of the 1st Lien Lenders, 2nd Lien Lenders and/or the Noteholders, to exercise their remedies under the 1st Lien Agreement, 2nd Lien Agreement, and the Note and Guaranty Agreements, respectively, including, without limitation, the right to accelerate all outstanding debt and take actions authorized in such circumstances\nunder applicable collateral security documents.\nOur ability to operate as a going concern is dependent on our ability to remain in compliance with debt covenants and to refinance or amend our debt agreements as they become due, or earlier if available liquidity is consumed. We are in compliance with our debt covenants at March 25, 2012.\nIn 2010, we filed a Form S-3 shelf registration statement (\"Shelf\") with the SEC, which has been declared effective. The Shelf gives us the flexibility to issue and publicly distribute various types of securities, including preferred stock, common stock, secured or unsecured debt securities, purchase contracts and units consisting of any combination of such securities, from time to time, in one or more offerings, up to an aggregate amount of $750,000,000. In July 2011, the SEC announced changes to the issuer eligibility rules which will require us to have a public float of at least $75,000,000 in order to use the Shelf. If the market price of our Common Stock increases sufficiently and, subject to the conditions of our existing debt agreements, the Shelf may enable us to sell securities quickly and efficiently when market conditions are favorable or financing needs arise. Net proceeds from the sale of any securities must be used generally to reduce debt.\nPENSION, POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS\nWe have several noncontributory defined benefit pension plans that together cover selected employees. Benefits under the plans were generally based on salary and years of service. Effective in 2012, all benefits are frozen and no additional benefits are being accrued. Our liability and related expense for benefits under the plans are recorded over the service period of active employees based upon annual actuarial calculations. Plan funding strategies are influenced by government regulations. Plan assets consist primarily of domestic and foreign corporate equity securities, government and corporate bonds, and cash.\nIn addition, we provide retiree medical and life insurance benefits under postretirement plans at several of our operating locations. The level and adjustment of participant contributions vary depending on the specific plan. In addition, PD LLC provides postemployment disability benefits to certain employee groups prior to retirement. Our liability and related expense for benefits under the postretirement plans are recorded over the service period of active employees based upon annual actuarial calculations. We accrue postemployment disability benefits when it becomes probable that such benefits will be paid and when sufficient information exists to make reasonable estimates of the amounts to be paid. Plan assets may also be used to fund medical costs of certain active employees.\nWe use a fiscal year end measurement date for all of our pension and postretirement medical plan obligations.\nThe net periodic cost (benefit) components of our pension and postretirement medical plans are as follows:\nService cost for benefits earned during the period\nInterest cost on projected benefit obligation\nPOSTRETIREMENT MEDICAL PLANS\nBased on our forecast at September 25, 2011, we expect to contribute $2,671,000 to our pension plans for the remainder of 2012. Based on our forecast at September 25, 2011, we do not expect to make significant contributions to our postretirement plans for the remainder of 2012.\n2011 Changes to Plans\nIn May 2011, a new bargaining unit contract eliminated postretirement medical coverage for affected active employees and froze defined pension benefits. The elimination of postretirement medical coverage resulted in a non-cash curtailment gain of $3,974,000 which was recognized in the 13 weeks ended June 26, 2011, reduced 2011 net periodic postretirement medical expense by $82,000 beginning in the 13 weeks ended June 26, 2011 and reduced the benefit obligation liability at June 26, 2011 by $3,371,000. The freeze of defined pension benefits reduced 2011 net periodic pension expenses by $188,000 beginning in the 13 weeks ended June 26, 2011 and reduced the benefit obligation liability at June 26, 2011 by $592,000.\nIn March 2011, we notified certain participants in our postretirement medical plans of changes to be made to the plans, including increases in participant premium cost-sharing and elimination of coverage for certain participants. The changes resulted in a non-cash curtailment gain of $1,991,000 which was recognized in the 13 weeks ended March 27, 2011 and reduced the benefit obligation liability at March 27, 2011 by $3,030,000.\nIn November 2010, we notified certain participants in our postretirement medical plans of changes to be made to the plans, including increases in participant premium cost-sharing and elimination of coverage for certain participants. The changes resulted in a non-cash curtailment gain of $10,172,000 which was recognized in the 13 weeks ended December 26, 2010, reduced 2011 net periodic postretirement medical cost by $769,000 beginning in the 13 weeks ended December 26, 2010, and reduced the benefit obligation liability at December 26, 2010 by $15,065,000.\nThe provision for income taxes includes deferred taxes and is based upon estimated annual effective tax rates in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate. Such annualization of effective tax rates can cause distortion in quarterly tax rates.\nIncome tax expense differs from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to income (loss) before income taxes. The reasons for these differences are as follows:\n(Percent of Income Before Income Taxes)\nComputed \u201cexpected\u201d income tax expense (benefit)\nState income taxes, net of federal tax expense (benefit)\nRestricted Common Stock\nResolution of tax matters\nIn connection with the refinancing of debt under the Chapter 11 Proceedings, we realized substantial cancellation of debt income (\u201cCODI\u201d) for income tax purposes. However, this income was not immediately taxable for U.S. income tax purposes because the CODI resulted from the Company's reorganization under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. For U.S. income tax reporting purposes, the Company is required to reduce certain tax attributes, including any net operating loss carryforwards, capital losses, certain tax credit carryforwards, and the tax basis in certain assets and liabilities, including debt, in a total amount equal to the tax gain on the extinguishment of debt. As a result, we have begun recognizing additional interest expense deductions for income tax purposes beginning in February 2012. The reduction in the basis of certain assets will result in reduced depreciation expense for income tax purposes beginning in 2013.\nIncome (loss) attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated:\nLess non-vested restricted Common Stock\nBasic average common shares\nDilutive stock options and restricted Common Stock\nDiluted average common shares\nFor the 13 weeks ended March 25, 2012 and March 27, 2011, we have 1,765,000 and 1,278,000 weighted average shares, respectively, subject to issuance under our stock option plan that have no intrinsic value and are not considered in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share. For the 26 weeks ended March 25, 2012 and March 27, 2011, the weighted average shares not considered in the computation of diluted earnings per common share are 1,781,000 and 1,984,000, respectively.\nSTOCK OWNERSHIP PLANS\nA summary of stock option activity during the 26 weeks ended March 25, 2012 follows:\nOutstanding, March 25, 2012\nExercisable, March 25, 2012\nTotal unrecognized compensation expense for unvested stock options as of March 25, 2012 is $1,260,000, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.2 years.\nOn April 30, 2012, 1,368,000 stock options were issued at an exercise price of $1.13 per share.\nFASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy of fair value measurements based on whether the inputs to those measurements are observable or unobservable which consists of the following levels:\nLevel 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;\nLevel 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and\nLevel 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.\nThe following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate value. The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Investments totaling $8,155,000, including our 17% ownership of the nonvoting common stock of TCT, are carried at cost. The fair value of floating rate debt cannot be determined as an active market for such debt does not exist. Our fixed rate debt consists of the $175,000,000 principal amount under the 2nd Lien Agreement and $116,000,000 principal amount of Pulitzer Notes, as discussed more fully in Note 4, which are not traded on an active market and are held by small groups of investors. Coupled with the volatility of substantially all domestic credit markets that exists, we are unable, as of March 25, 2012, to determine the fair value of such debt. The value, if determined, may be less than the carrying amount. The determination of the amount of the Herald Value (as defined below) is based on an estimate of fair value using both market and income-based approaches.\nThe following table summarizes the financial instruments measured at fair value in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements:\nLevel 3 - Herald Value - liability\nIn 2011, we reduced the Herald Value by $2,000,000 to $300,000 based on the most recent estimate of fair value. There were no other realized or unrealized gains or losses, purchases, sales, or transfers related to the Herald Value in the 13 weeks ended March 25, 2012.\nIn 2011, we reduced the carrying value of equipment no longer in use by $700,000, based on estimates of the related fair value in the current market. Based on age, condition and marketability we estimated the equipment\nhad no value.\nRedemption of PD LLC Minority Interest\nIn February 2009, in conjunction with the Notes Amendment, PD LLC redeemed the 5% interest in PD LLC and STL Distribution Services LLC (\"DS LLC\") owned by The Herald Publishing Company, LLC (\"Herald\") pursuant to a Redemption Agreement and adopted conforming amendments to the Operating Agreement. As a result, the value of Herald's former interest (the \u201cHerald Value\u201d) will be settled, at a date determined by Herald between April 2013 and April 2015, based on a calculation of 10% of the fair market value of PD LLC and DS LLC at the time of settlement, less the balance, as adjusted, of the Pulitzer Notes or the equivalent successor debt, if any. We recorded a liability of $2,300,000 in 2009 as an estimate of the amount of the Herald Value to be disbursed. In 2011, we reduced the liability related to the Herald Value to $300,000 based on the current estimate of fair value. The actual amount of the Herald Value will depend on such variables as future cash flows and indebtedness of PD LLC and DS LLC, market valuations of newspaper properties and the timing of the request for redemption. Cash settlement of the Herald Value is limited by the terms of the Credit Agreement.\nThe redemption of Herald's interest in PD LLC and DS LLC may generate significant tax benefits to us as a consequence of the resulting increase in the tax basis of the assets owned by PD LLC and DS LLC and the related depreciation and amortization deductions. The increase in basis to be amortized for income tax purposes over a 15 year period beginning in February 2009 is approximately $258,000,000.\nWe file income tax returns with the IRS and various state tax jurisdictions. From time to time, we are subject to routine audits by those agencies, and those audits may result in proposed adjustments. We have considered the alternative interpretations that may be assumed by the various taxing agencies, believe our positions taken regarding our filings are valid, and that adequate tax liabilities have been recorded to resolve such matters. However, the actual outcome cannot be determined with certainty and the difference could be material, either positively or negatively, to the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the periods in which such matters are ultimately determined. We do not believe the final resolution of such matters will be material to our consolidated financial position or cash flows.\nWe have various income tax examinations ongoing which are at different stages of completion, but generally our income tax returns have been audited or closed to audit through 2007.\nIn 2008, a group of newspaper carriers filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, claiming to be our employees and not independent contractors. The plaintiffs seek relief related to alleged violations of various employment-based statutes, and request punitive damages and attorneys' fees. In July 2010, the trial court granted the plaintiffs' petition for class certification. We filed an interlocutory appeal which was denied. After concluding discovery, we filed a motion to reverse the class certification ruling. This motion was recently denied by the trial court, and the Company is currently evaluating its next steps. The Company denies the allegations of employee status, consistent with our past practices and industry standards, and will continue to vigorously contest the action, which is not covered by insurance. At this time we are unable to predict whether the ultimate economic outcome, if any, could have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements, taken as a whole.\nWe are involved in a variety of other legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. Insurance coverage mitigates potential loss for certain of these other matters. While we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these other legal actions, it is our opinion that the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements, taken as a whole.\nUnder the Plan, the par value of our Common Stock was changed from $2.00 per share to $0.01 per share effective January 30, 2012. 2nd Lien Lenders shared in the issuance of 6,743,640 shares of our Common Stock, an amount\nequal to 13% of outstanding shares on a pro forma basis as of January 30, 2012.\nAs of July 1, 2011, our Common Stock traded at an average 30-day closing market price of less than $1 per share. Under the NYSE listing standards, if our Common Stock fails to maintain an adequate per share price and total market capitalization of less than $50,000,000, our Common Stock could be removed from the NYSE and traded in the over the counter market. In July 2011, the NYSE first notified us that our Common Stock did not meet the NYSE continued listing standards due to the failure to maintain an adequate share price. Under the NYSE rules, our Common Stock is allowed to continue to be listed during a cure period. In February 2012, the NYSE notified the Company that it was again in compliance with the minimum closing price standard. At March 25, 2012, our average market capitalization also exceeds the $50,000,000 minimum required by the NYSE. However, the NYSE has not yet notified us that the Company has returned to compliance with the market capitalization standard. Continued listing is subject to ongoing reassessment by the NYSE. We are currently operating under an NYSE-approved plan and expect any issues to be successfully addressed within the time frames required under the NYSE rules. We may be able to mitigate the effect of a low stock price in the future through implementation of a reverse stock split, which was authorized by stockholders to be implemented by the Board of Directors, at its discretion, at any time prior to June 30, 2012.\nThe following discussion includes comments and analysis relating to our results of operations and financial condition as of and for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended March 25, 2012. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto, included herein, and our amended 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.\nNo non-GAAP financial measure should be considered as a substitute for any related financial measure under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (\"GAAP\"). However, we believe the use of non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful supplemental information with which to evaluate our financial performance, or assist in forecasting and analyzing future periods. We also believe such non-GAAP financial measures are alternative indicators of performance used by investors, lenders, rating agencies and financial analysts to estimate the value of a publishing business or its ability to meet debt service requirements.\nOperating Cash Flow and Operating Cash Flow Margin\nOperating cash flow, which is defined as operating income before depreciation, amortization, curtailment gains and equity in earnings of associated companies, and operating cash flow margin (operating cash flow divided by operating revenue) represent non-GAAP financial measures that are used in the analysis below. We believe these measures provide meaningful supplemental information because of their focus on results from operations excluding such non-cash factors.\nReconciliations of operating cash flow and operating cash flow margin to operating income and operating income margin, the most directly comparable measures under GAAP, are included in the tables below:\nAdjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share\nAdjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per common share, which are defined as income (loss) attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated and earnings (loss) per common share adjusted to exclude both unusual matters and those of a substantially non-recurring nature, are non-GAAP financial measures that are used in the analysis below. We believe these measures provide meaningful supplemental information by identifying matters that are not indicative of core business operating results or are of a substantially non-recurring nature.\nReconciliations of adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per common share to income (loss)\nattributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated and earnings (loss) per common share, respectively, the most directly comparable measures under GAAP, are set forth below under the caption \u201cOverall Results\u201d.\nSAME PROPERTY COMPARISONS\nCertain information below, as noted, is presented on a same property basis, which is exclusive of acquisitions and divestitures, if any, consummated in the current or prior year. We believe such comparisons provide meaningful supplemental information for an understanding of changes in our revenue and operating expenses. Same property comparisons exclude TNI and MNI. We own 50% of TNI and also own 50% of the capital stock of MNI, both of which are reported using the equity method of accounting. Same property comparisons also exclude corporate office costs.\nOur discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.\nOur critical accounting policies include the following:\n\u2022Goodwill and other intangible assets;\n\u2022Pension, postretirement and postemployment benefit plans;\n\u2022Income taxes;\n\u2022Revenue recognition; and\n\u2022Uninsured risks.\nAdditional information regarding these critical accounting policies can be found under the caption \u201cManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations\u201d in our amended 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein.\nWe are a leading provider of local news and information, and a major platform for advertising, in the markets we serve, which are located primarily in the Midwest, Mountain West and West regions of the United States. With the exception of St. Louis, MO, our 52 markets, across 23 states, are principally midsize or small. Through our print and digital platforms, we reach an overwhelming majority of adults in our markets.\nOur platforms include:\n52 daily and 40 Sunday newspapers with average total circulation of 1.3 million and 1.6 million, respectively, for the 26 weeks ended March 25, 2012, read by nearly 4 million people in print;\nWebsites in all of our markets that complement our newspapers and attracted almost 26 million unique visitors in March 2012, a 3.7% increase from March 2011;\nMobile sites in all of our markets that attracted almost 44 million views in March 2012, a 174% increase from March 2011;\nSmart-phone applications in all markets;\nTablet applications in operation and in development; and\nNearly 300 weekly newspapers and classified and niche publications.\nOur markets have established retail bases, and most are regional shopping hubs. We are located in four state capitals. Six of our top ten markets by revenue include major universities, and seven are home to major corporate headquarters. Based on data from the Bureau of Labor of Statistics as of March 2012, the unemployment rate in eight of our top ten markets by revenue was lower than the national average. We believe that all of these factors have had a positive impact on advertising revenue.\nUnlike many other newspaper publishers, we do not face significant competition from other local daily newspapers in most of our markets, although there is significant competition for readers and viewers in those markets from other media. In our top ten markets by revenue, only two have significant local daily print competition. In the balance of our markets, we have little or no local daily print competition.\nAccording to the National Bureau of Economic Research, the United States economy was in a recession from December 2007 until June 2009. It is widely believed that certain elements of the economy, such as housing, auto sales and employment, were in decline before December 2007, and have still not recovered to pre-recession levels. Revenue, operating results and cash flows from 2008-2011 were significantly impacted by the recession and its aftermath. The duration and depth of an economic recession, and pace of economic recovery, in markets in which we operate may influence our future results.\nIMPAIRMENT OF GOODWILL AND OTHER ASSETS\nDue primarily to the difference between our stock price and the per share carrying value of our net assets, we analyzed the carrying value of our net assets in 2008, 2009 and 2011. Continued deterioration in our revenue and the weak economic environment were also factors in the timing of the analyses. We concluded the fair value of our business did not exceed the carrying value of our net assets.\nAs a result, we recorded pretax, non-cash charges to reduce the carrying value of goodwill, nonamortized and amortizable intangible assets in 2008, 2009, and 2011. Additional pretax, non-cash charges were recorded to reduce the carrying value of TNI. We also recorded pretax, non-cash charges to reduce the carrying value of property and equipment in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. We recorded deferred income tax benefits related to these charges.\nWe have a substantial amount of debt, as discussed more fully (and certain capitalized terms used below defined) in Item 2, \u201cDebt and Liquidity\" and Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein. In February 2009, we completed a comprehensive restructuring of our then-existing credit agreement and a refinancing of our Pulitzer Notes debt, substantially enhancing our liquidity and operating flexibility.\nSubstantially all of our debt was scheduled to mature in April 2012. We used the Chapter 11 Proceedings to accomplish a comprehensive refinancing that extends the maturities to December 2015 and April 2017. Interest expense will increase as a result of the refinancing and mandatory principal payments will be reduced. Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness will depend on our ability to generate future cash flows. This ability, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, business, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.\nOur ability to operate as a going concern is dependent on our ability to remain in compliance with debt covenants and to refinance or amend our debt agreements as they become due, or earlier if available liquidity is consumed. We are in compliance with our debt covenants at March 25, 2012. Since February 2009, we have satisfied all interest payments and substantially all principal payments due under our debt facilities with our cash flows.\nAs of July 1, 2011, our Common Stock traded at an average 30-day closing market price of less than $1 per share. Under the NYSE listing standards, if our Common Stock fails to maintain an adequate per share price and total market capitalization of less than $50,000,000, our Common Stock could be removed from the NYSE and traded in the over the counter market. In July 2011, the NYSE first notified us that our Common Stock did not meet the NYSE continued listing standards due to the failure to maintain an adequate share price. Under the NYSE rules, our Common Stock is allowed to continue to be listed during a cure period. In February 2012, the NYSE notified the Company that it was\nagain in compliance with the minimum closing price standard. At March 25, 2012, our average market capitalization also exceeds the $50,000,000 minimum required by the NYSE. However, the NYSE has not yet notified us that the Company has returned to compliance with the market capitalization standard. Continued listing is subject to ongoing reassessment by the NYSE. We are currently operating under an NYSE-approved plan and expect any issues to be successfully addressed within the time frames required under the NYSE rules. We may be able to mitigate the effect of a low stock price in the future through implementation of a reverse stock split, which was authorized by stockholders to be implemented by the Board of Directors, at its discretion, at any time prior to June 30, 2012.\n13 WEEKS ENDED MARCH 25, 2012\nOperating results, as reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements, are summarized below. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.\n(Thousands of Dollars, Except Per Share Data)\nAdvertising revenue:\nTotal classified\nTotal advertising revenue\nLoss before reorganization costs and income taxes\nLoss attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated\nReferences to the \"2012 Quarter\" refer to the 13 weeks ended March 25, 2012. Similarly, references to the \"2011 Quarter\" refer to the 13 weeks ended March 27, 2011.\nFor the 2012 Quarter, total operating revenue decreased $6,468,000, or 3.6%, compared to the 2011 Quarter and same property revenue decreased 3.6%. We expect year-over-year revenue comparisons to improve as economic\nconditions in our markets also improve.\nIn the 2012 Quarter, combined print and digital advertising revenue decreased $6,553,000, or 5.3% compared to the 2011 Quarter. Retail advertising decreased 3.5%. Retail preprint insertion revenue decreased 5.2%. Digital retail advertising increased 15.1%, partially offsetting print declines.\nOn a combined basis, print and digital classified revenue decreased 7.1% in the 2012 Quarter. Employment revenue decreased 0.3% while automotive advertising decreased 3.9%, real estate decreased 12.2% and other classified decreased 11.5%. Digital classified revenue increased 1.9%.\nNational advertising decreased $755,000, or 9.7%. Advertising in niche publications decreased 11.5%.\nOn a stand-alone basis, digital advertising revenue increased 9.9% in the 2012 Quarter representing 13.4% of total advertising revenue. Year-over-year total digital advertising turned positive in the month of December 2009 and has been rising steadily since that time. Print advertising revenue on a stand-alone basis decreased 7.3%.\nDespite declines in advertising revenue, our total advertising results have benchmarked favorably to industry averages reported by the Newspaper Association of America each quarter since June 2003.\nCirculation and Other Revenue\nCirculation revenue increased $57,000, or 0.1%, in the 2012 Quarter.\nOur unaudited, average daily newspaper circulation units, including TNI and MNI, decreased 5.7% and Sunday circulation decreased 7.3% in the 2012 Quarter compared to the 2011 Quarter.\nOur digital sites attracted 25.9 million unique visitors in the month of March 2012, an increase of 3.7% from a year ago, with 222.8 million page views. The number of mobile page views grew 174.3% to 43.9 million in March 2012. Research in our larger markets indicates we are reaching an increasingly larger audience through the combination of rapid digital audience growth and stable newspaper readership.\nCommercial printing revenue increased $175,000, or 6.1%, in the 2012 Quarter. Other revenue decreased $147,000, or 2.1%, in the 2012 Quarter, primarily due to the sale of a book publishing business in February 2011.\nCosts other than depreciation, amortization and unusual matters decreased $9,242,000, or 6.2%, in the 2012 Quarter.\nCompensation expense decreased $4,005,000, or 5.2%, in the 2012 Quarter, driven by a decline in average full-time equivalent employees of 7.5%.\nNewsprint and ink costs decreased $1,772,000, or 11.9%, in the 2012 Quarter as a result of a reduction in newsprint volume of 9.5%. See Item 3, \u201cCommodities\u201d, included herein, for further discussion and analysis of the impact of newsprint on our business.\nOther operating expenses, which are comprised of all operating costs not considered to be compensation, newsprint, depreciation, amortization, or unusual matters, decreased $3,465,000, or 6.0%, in the 2012 Quarter.\nReductions in staffing resulted in workforce adjustment costs totaling $542,000 and $443,000 in the 2012 Quarter and 2011 Quarter, respectively.\nWe are engaged in various efforts to continue to contain future growth in operating expenses. Excluding a 53rd week of business activity, we expect 2012 operating expenses, excluding depreciation, amortization and unusual matters, to decrease 3.5-4.5% from the comparable 2011 level.\nOperating Cash Flow and Results of Operations\nAs a result of the factors noted above, operating cash flow increased 9.1%, to $32,104,000, in the 2012 Quarter compared to $29,429,000 in the 2011 Quarter. Operating cash flow margin increased to 18.6% from 16.5% a year ago reflecting a larger percentage decrease in operating expenses than the decrease in operating revenue.\nDepreciation expense decreased $1,167,000, or 16.0%, in the 2012 Quarter and amortization expense decreased $281,000, or 2.5%, in the 2012 Quarter.\nIncreases in participant premium cost-sharing discussed more fully above were treated as negative plan amendments. Curtailment treatment was utilized in situations in which coverage was eliminated. Curtailment gains were calculated by revaluation of plan liabilities after consideration of other plan changes.\nEquity in earnings in associated companies increased $282,000 in the 2012 Quarter.\nThe factors noted above resulted in operating income of $16,488,000 in the 2012 Quarter compared to $14,074,000 in the 2011 Quarter.\nNonoperating Income and Expense\nFinancial expense increased $5,992,000, or 39.9%, to $21,027,000 in the 2012 Quarter due primarily to higher interest rates. Our weighted average cost of debt was 9.2% at the end of the 2012 Quarter, compared to 5.0% at the end of the 2011 Quarter. Financial expense in the 2012 Quarter includes $1,295,000 of non-cash amortization of a present value adjustment of debt.\nWe recognized $36,626,000 of reorganization costs in the 2012 Quarter. We recognized an income tax benefit of 35.4% of loss before income taxes in the 2012 Quarter and income tax expense of 23.4% of loss before income taxes in the 2011 Quarter. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein, for a reconciliation of the expected federal income tax rate to the actual tax rates.\nAs a result of the factors noted above, loss attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated totaled $26,625,000 in the 2012 Quarter compared to $1,472,000 in the 2011 Quarter. We recorded loss per diluted common share of $0.54 in the 2012 Quarter and $0.03 in the 2011 Quarter. Excluding unusual matters, as detailed in the table below, diluted loss per common share, as adjusted, was $0.03 in the 2012 Quarter, compared to $0.02 in the 2011 Quarter. Per share amounts may not add due to rounding.\nLoss attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated, as reported\nDebt financing and reorganization costs\nIncome tax effect of adjustments, net and unusual tax matters\nLoss attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated, as adjusted\nIncome before reorganization costs and income taxes\nReferences to the \"2012 Period\" refer to the 26 weeks ended March 25, 2012. Similarly, references to the \"2011 Period\" refer to the 26 weeks ended March 27, 2011.\nIn the 2012 Period, combined print and digital advertising revenue decreased $15,821,000, or 5.7%, compared to the 2011 Period. Retail advertising decreased 4.6%. Retail preprint insertion revenue decreased 7.1%. Digital retail advertising increased 20.8%, partially offsetting print declines.\nOn a combined basis, print and digital classified revenue decreased 8.4% in the 2012 Period. Employment revenue decreased 0.4% while automotive advertising decreased 4.0%, real estate decreased 15.2% and other classified decreased 13.4%.

Operating cash flow margin increased to 23.0% from 21.6% a year ago reflecting a larger percentage decrease in operating expenses than the decrease in operating revenue.\nDepreciation expense decreased $1,454,000, or 10.5%, in the 2012 Period and amortization expense decreased $640,000, or 2.8%, in the 2012 Period.\nEquity in earnings in associated companies increased $389,000 in the 2012 Period.\nThe factors noted above resulted in operating income of $55,683,000 in the 2012 Period compared to $63,257,000 in the 2011 Period.\nFinancial expense increased $5,364,000, or 17.6%, to $35,803,000 in the 2012 Period due primarily to higher interest rates. Our weighted average cost of debt was 9.2% at the end of the 2012 Period, compared to 5.0% at the end of the 2011 Period. Financial expense in the 2012 Period includes $1,170,000 of non-cash amortization of a present value adjustment of debt.\nWe recognized $37,867,000 of reorganization costs in the 2012 Period. We recognized an income tax benefit of 33.3% of loss before income taxes in the 2012 Period and income tax expense of 45.6% of income before income taxes in the 2011 Period. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein, for a reconciliation of the expected federal income tax rate to the actual tax rates.\nAs a result of the factors noted above, loss attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated totaled $12,072,000 in the 2012 Period compared to income of $17,471,000 in the 2011 Period. We recorded a loss per diluted common share of $0.26 in the 2012 Period and earnings per diluted common share of $0.39 in the 2011 Period. Excluding unusual matters, as detailed in the table below, diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, were $0.33 in the 2012 Period, compared to $0.30 in the 2011 Period. Per share amounts may not add due to rounding.\nIncome (loss) attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated, as reported\nIncome attributable to Lee Enterprises, Incorporated, as adjusted\nCash provided by operating activities was $63,150,000 in the 2012 Period and $57,279,000 in the 2011 Period. We recorded a net loss of $11,919,000 for the 2012 Period and net income of $17,529,000 in the 2011 Period. We recognized $37,867,000 of reorganization costs in the 2012 Period. We also recognized a non-cash curtailment gain of $12,163,000 in the 2011 Period. The net change in all of the aforementioned factors, as well as changes in deferred income taxes, accounted for the majority of the change in cash provided between periods. Changes in operating assets and liabilities and the timing of income tax payments accounted for the bulk of the remainder of the change in cash provided by operating activities in both periods.\nCash provided by investing activities totaled $7,523,000 in the 2012 Period and $4,352,000 in the 2011 Period. Restricted cash was reduced $4,972,000 in the 2012 Period and $4,522,000 in the 2011 Period. Capital spending totaled $3,022,000 in the 2012 Period and $2,238,000 in the 2011 Period. We received $4,929,000 from the sale of assets in the 2012 Period compared to $1,789,000 in the 2011 Period.\nWe anticipate that funds necessary for capital expenditures, which are expected to total between $10,000,000 and $12,000,000 in 2012, and other requirements, will be available from internally generated funds.\nCash required for financing activities totaled $64,573,000 in the 2012 Period and $56,156,000 in the 2011 Period. In connection with the Chapter 11 Proceedings, we paid $23,563,000 of debt financing and reorganization costs in the 2012 Period. Debt reduction accounted for the remainder of the usage of funds in the 2012 Period and substantially all of the usage of funds in the 2011 Period.\nAs discussed more fully below (and certain capitalized terms used below defined), in January 2012, in conjunction with the effectiveness of the Plan, we refinanced all of our debt. The Plan refinanced our then-existing credit agreement and extended the April 2012 maturity in a structure of first and second lien debt with the existing lenders. We also\namended the Pulitzer Notes, and extended the April 2012 maturity with the existing Noteholders.\nAt March 25, 2012, the balance outstanding under the term loan is $674,500,000. We may voluntarily prepay principal amounts outstanding or reduce commitments under the 1st Lien Agreement at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon proper notice and subject to certain limitations as to minimum amounts of prepayments.\nThe Credit Parties have also granted a first priority security interest on substantially all of their tangible and intangible\nassets, and granted mortgages covering certain real estate, as collateral for the payment and performance of their obligations under the 1st Lien Agreement. Assets of Pulitzer and its subsidiaries, TNI, our ownership interest in, and assets of, MNI and certain employee benefit plan assets are excluded.\nThe 2nd Lien Agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the Credit Parties and by Pulitzer and its subsidiaries, other than TNI (collectively, the \"2nd Lien Credit Parties). The 2nd Lien Agreement is secured by second priority security interests in the stock and other equity interests owned by the 2nd Lien Credit Parties.\nThe 2nd Lien Credit Parties have also granted a second priority security interest on substantially all of their tangible\nand intangible assets, and granted second lien mortgages or deeds of trust covering certain real estate, as collateral for the payment and performance of their obligations under the 2nd Lien Agreement. Assets of TNI, our ownership interest in, and assets of, MNI and certain employee benefit plan assets are excluded.\nIn conjunction with its formation in 2000, St. Louis Post-Dispatch LLC (\"PD LLC\") borrowed $306,000,000 (the \u201cPulitzer Notes\u201d) from a group of institutional lenders (the \u201cNoteholders\u201d). The Pulitzer Notes were guaranteed by Pulitzer pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement with the Noteholders. The aggregate principal amount of the Pulitzer Notes was payable in April 2009.\nIn February 2009, the Pulitzer Notes and the Guaranty Agreement described below were amended (the \u201cNotes Amendment\u201d). Under the Notes Amendment, PD LLC repaid $120,000,000 of the principal amount of the debt obligation. The remaining debt balance of $186,000,000 was refinanced by the Noteholders until April 2012.\nIn January 2012, in connection with the Plan, we entered into an amended Note Agreement and Guaranty Agreement which amended the Pulitzer Notes and extended the maturity with the Noteholders. After consideration of unscheduled principal payments totaling $15,145,000 ($10,145,000 in December 2011 and $5,000,000 in January 2012), offset by $3,500,000 of non-cash fees paid to the Noteholders in the form of additional Pulitzer Notes debt, the amended Pulitzer Notes had a balance of $126,355,000 in January 2012.\nThe Pulitzer Notes bear interest at 10.55%, increasing 0.75% in January 2013 and January of each year thereafter.\nMandatory payments\nVoluntary payments\nExcess cash flow sweep\nAsset sale payments\nThe Guaranty Agreement provides that obligations under the Pulitzer Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by Pulitzer's existing and future subsidiaries other than TNI. The Pulitzer Notes are also secured by the first priority security interests in the stock and other equity interests owned by Pulitzer in its subsidiaries other than TNI. Also, Pulitzer and each of its subsidiaries granted a first priority security interest on substantially all of its tangible and intangible assets, and granted first lien mortgages or deeds of trust covering certain real estate, as collateral for the payment and performance of their obligations under the Pulitzer Notes. Our ownership interest in TNI and certain employee benefit plan assets are excluded.\nFurther, the Pulitzer Notes have limitations or restrictions on distributions, loans, advances, investments, acquisitions, dispositions and mergers. Such covenants require that substantially all future cash flows of Pulitzer are required to be directed first toward repayment of the Pulitzer Notes or accumulation of cash collateral and that cash flows of Pulitzer are largely segregated from those of the Credit Parties.\nCredit Agreement:\nThere are numerous potential consequences under the 1st Lien Agreement, 2nd Lien Agreement, and the Note and Guaranty Agreements related to the Pulitzer Notes, if an event of default, as defined, occurs and is not remedied. Many of those consequences are beyond our control. The occurrence of one or more events of default would give rise to the right of the 1st Lien Lenders, 2nd Lien Lenders and/or the Noteholders, to exercise their remedies under the 1st Lien Agreement, 2nd Lien Agreement, and the Note and Guaranty Agreements, respectively, including, without limitation, the right to accelerate all outstanding debt and take actions authorized in such circumstances under applicable collateral security documents.\nEnergy costs have become more volatile, and may increase in the future as a result of carbon emissions and other\nregulations being considered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.\nThe Affordable Care Act was enacted into law in 2010. As a result, in 2010 we wrote off $2,012,000 of deferred income tax assets due to the loss of future tax deductions for providing retiree prescription drug benefits.\nWe expect the Affordable Care Act, if upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, will be supported by a substantial number of underlying regulations, many of which have not been issued. Accordingly, a complete determination of the impact of the Affordable Care Act cannot be made at this time. However, we expect our future health care costs to increase more rapidly based on analysis published by the United States Department of Health and Human Services, input from independent advisors and our understanding of various provisions of the Affordable Care Act that differ from our current medical plans, such as:\n\u2022Higher maximum age for dependent coverage;\n\u2022Elimination of lifetime benefit caps; and,\n\u2022Free choice vouchers for certain lower income employees.\nAdministrative costs are also likely to increase as a result of new compliance reporting. New costs being imposed on other medical care businesses, such as health insurers, pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers, may be passed on to us in the form of higher costs. We may be able to mitigate certain of these future cost increases through changes in plan design.\nWe do not expect the Affordable Care Act will have a significant impact on our postretirement medical benefit obligation liability.\nCertain states in which we operate are considering changes to their corporate income tax rates. At this time, the impact of such changes cannot be determined.\nPrice increases (or decreases) for our products are implemented when deemed appropriate by us. We continuously evaluate price increases, productivity improvements, sourcing efficiencies and other cost reductions to mitigate the impact of inflation.\nWe are exposed to market risk stemming from changes in interest rates and commodity prices. Changes in these factors could cause fluctuations in earnings and cash flows. In the normal course of business, exposure to certain of these market risks is managed as described below.\nOur debt structure and interest rate risk are managed through the use of fixed and floating rate debt. Our primary exposure is to LIBOR. A 100 basis point increase or decrease to LIBOR would, if in excess of LIBOR minimums discussed more fully below, decrease or increase, respectively, income before income taxes on an annualized basis by approximately $6,745,000, based on $674,500,000 of floating rate debt outstanding at March 25, 2012.\nOur debt under the 1st Lien Agreement is subject to minimum interest rate levels of 1.25%. Based on the difference between interest rates at the end of April 2012 and our 1.25% minimum rate, LIBOR would need to increase approximately 50-100 basis points before our borrowing cost would begin to be impacted by an increase in interest rates.\nAt March 25, 2012, approximately 69.9% of the principal amount of our debt is subject to floating interest rates. We regularly evaluate alternatives to hedge the related interest rate risk.\nCertain of our interest-earning assets, including those in employee benefit plans, also function as a natural hedge against fluctuations in interest rates on debt.\nCertain materials used by us are exposed to commodity price changes. We manage this risk through instruments such as purchase orders and non-cancelable supply contracts. We are a participant in a buying cooperative with other publishing companies, primarily for the acquisition of newsprint. We are also involved in continuing programs to mitigate the impact of cost increases through identification of sourcing and operating efficiencies. Primary commodity price exposures are newsprint and, to a lesser extent, ink and energy costs.\nNewsprint pricing has remained relatively flat since 2010 with some minor adjustments as West coast producers attempted to close the pricing gap with East coast producers. North American newsprint producers continue to face declining domestic demand which has already forced them to shutter excess production and to pursue exports to fill current active production capacities. A strong Canadian currency and increased input costs, particularly recycled fiber, energy, and chemicals, have put significant financial pressure on higher cost producers. Future price changes, if any, will be influenced primarily by the balance between supply capacity and demand, domestic and export, in addition to the producers' ability to mitigate input cost pressures. The final extent of future price change announcements, if any, is subject to negotiations with each newsprint producer.\nNorth American newsprint producers continue to deleverage under difficult market conditions. The largest producer, Resolute Forest Products, exited U.S and Canadian reorganization proceedings in December 2010. Several other producers are currently in various stages of corporate reorganization.\nA $10 per tonne price increase for 30 pound newsprint would result in an annualized reduction in income before income taxes of approximately $935,000 based on anticipated consumption in 2012, excluding consumption of TNI and MNI and the impact of LIFO accounting. Such prices may also decrease. We manage significant newsprint inventories, which may help to mitigate the impact of future price increases.\nSENSITIVITY TO CHANGES IN VALUE\nOur fixed rate debt consists of the 2nd Lien Agreement and Pulitzer Notes, which are not traded on an active market and are held by small groups of investors. Coupled with the volatility of substantially all domestic credit markets that exists we are unable, as of March 25, 2012, to measure the maximum potential impact on fair value of fixed rate debt from adverse changes in market interest rates under normal market conditions. The change in value, if determined, could be significant.\nUnder the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the \u201cEvaluation Date\u201d). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.\nThere have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the 13 weeks ended March 25, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.\nRule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) certification\n/s/ Carl G.

The term is derived from the name of British politician and Missionary Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800-1859), an individual who was instrumental in the introduction of English as the medium of instruction in the higher education of India.\nMacaulay held the western culture in high esteem and saw his mission as a civilizing mission: \"We must at present do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons, Indian in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, in morals, and in intellect. To that class we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country, to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature, and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population,\" Macaulay declared.\nIn the independent nation of India which emerged in the second half of the 20th century, Macaulay's name has become emblematic for the ills of colonialism. Macaulay and the British education system have been blamed for producing a generation of Indians not proud of their distinct heritage.\nSpeaking at a national seminar on \"Decolonizing English Education\" in 2001, professor Kapil Kapoor, declared that one of the byproducts of mainstream English language education in India today has been its tendency to \"marginalize inherited learning\" and to have uprooted academics from traditional Indian modes of thought, inducing in them \"a spirit of self-denigration (heenabhavna).\"\nAuthor Rajiv Malhotra has bemoaned the \"continuation of the policy on Indian education started by the famous Lord Macaulay over 150 years ago\" for the virtual banishment of classic Indian literature from the country's higher academic institutions and the emergence of a \"new breed\" of writers professing a \"uniquely Indian Eurocentrism.\"\nLabels: HISTORY OF INDIA/BHARAT",

        "raw_content": "The Grisly Real-Life Inspiration For 7 Classic Fairy Tales\nThe great thing about classic fairy tales is we can share the stories we loved as kids with our own children and grandchildren.\nBut a little research reveals these wholesome stories were once very, very gruesome.\nMost of the fairy tales we still share were written in France or Germany in the 18th and 19th century, and were often inspired by real, tragic events.\nPrawny - Pixabay\nOver time, fact and fiction have mixed together. But historians say these seven fairy tales are inspired by grisly facts.\n1. The Pied Piper\nEveryone remembers this classic story: a piper offers to lead the rats out of a small town with his flute, but the villagers don't pay him as they promised.\nKate Greenaway - Wikimedia\nIn revenge, the piper leads the town's children into the woods, where he holds them for ransom until the villagers hand over their gold.\nBut real life records from the town of Hamelin, Germany, show the story did not always have a happy ending.\n\"It is 100 years since our children left,\" the town's chronicler wrote in 1384.\nAbe Kinya - Wikimedia\nSo who was the piper, and where did Hamelin's children go? Theories for their death or disappearance include natural disasters, abduction, and forced emigration.\nAll we know for sure is the piper never brought the children back.\nThe popular and fantastic parts of this story - enchanted roses, magical transformations, a castle with living objects - can be traced to French fairy tales.\nBut the \"beast\" himself was inspired by the tragic tale of Pedro Gonzalez.\nBorn in 1537 on the Canary Islands, Gonzalez was marked at birth by his hypertrichosis, which caused hair to grow all over his body.\nKunsthistorisches Museum Wien, Bilddatenbank - Wikimedia\nAs a child, Gonzalez was dubbed \"the man of the woods,\" and treated like a monster. he was kept in a cage and fed raw meat like a dog.\nGonzalez's luck changed at age 10, when he was given to King Henry II of France, who treated him like a person and raised him as a noble boy.\nJoris Hoefnagel - Wikimedia\nHenry's wife, Catherine de Medici, even arranged a marriage between Gonzalez and the daughter of a court servant.\nThey stayed married for 40 years, but sadly Gonzalez and his children, who were also hairy, were treated badly despite their noble status.\nJohnny Gruelle - Wikimedia\nThe story of Rapunzel actually has its roots in an ancient Christian story, with a decidedly unhappy ending.\nIt's said that a merchant in ancient Lebanon had a daughter so beautiful that he banned her from taking a suitor. When he traveled, the merchant locked his daughter in a tower.\nHis daughter became a Christian, and prayed loudly for God to deliver her from her father.\nSt. Barbara in her tower. Look and Learn\nWhen the merchant discovered this, he handed his own child over to the Romans, who gave them both a deadly ultimatum.\nThe daughter had to choose: renounce her religion, or be beheaded. When she refused to submit, her own father administered the death sentence, and was struck down by lightning moments later.\nHis daughter is remembered today as Saint Barbara, the patron saint of prisoners.\nAlexander Zick - Wikimedia\nThere are countless for real life inspirations classic story of wayward siblings, who escape from a witch's gingerbread house by locking her inside her own oven.\nThere were, sadly, many lost Hansels and Gretels, left to wander the forests of Europe throughout the middle ages.\nFamines were much more common back then, and sometimes lasted for years. It was just as common for parents to abandon their children to fend for themselves, giving a family one less mouth to feed.\nArthur Rackham - Wikimedia\nAs for the witch, there's a popular theory that she's inspired by a real life baker named Katharina Schaderin.\nThe story goes that Schaderin was labeled a witch by a jealous rival baker, and was burned in her own oven by angry townspeople.\nIn fact, the Schaderlin story was invented by a German author in the 1960s. But there are plenty of true stories about young women unfairly accused of being witches.\nHistorians and folklore experts agree that Cinderella was inspired by the ancient story of a Greek woman named Rhodopis.\nWhether Rhodopis also lived \"happily ever after\" depends on the version of her classic story that you read.\nThe happiest version says that an eagle snatched her sandals, and dropped them on a king's lap. The king ordered a search for the woman the sandals belonged to, and fell in love with Rhodopis after meeting her.\nTooele Online Bulletin\nMore likely versions include the fact that Rhodopis was a slave, captured as a child and sold to an Egyptian master.\nThe beautiful Rhodopis was given many impressive gifts, including a pair of golden shoes.\nIn the pleasant version, a lovesick man paid for Rhodopis' freedom, and she eventually became a wealthy woman.\nIn another, Rhodopis and her golden sandals become an obsession of the Egyptian pharaoh Ahmose II, who was not exactly Prince Charming.\nThe British Library - Flickr\nA man takes a wife, and welcomes her into his large castle. But he warns that she must never look inside the castle's smallest room.\nWhen she finally does, the woman discovers the bodies of her husband's murdered ex-wives.\nIt's a grisly story with a pair of equally ugly inspirations:\nLegend says that Conomor the Cursed was a Breton king, who was told a prophecy that his son would take his life.\nBecause of his curse, Conomor murdered each of his wives as they became pregnant. In fact, historians say the real Conomor killed just one woman (his wife Trephine) and her son.\n\u00c9loi Firmin F\u00e9ron - Wikimedia\nBut Gilles de Rais, a French nobleman from the 15th century, was another inspiration for the murderous Bluebeard.\nRais was described as a serial killer of children, accused of at least 40 murders but suspected of dozens or even hundreds.\nRais may have been nicknamed Bluebeard because of the color of his horse, and his trial inspired the French fairy tale writer Charles Perrault.\nBut while Rais was executed for his crimes, modern historians say he was actually innocent.\nWalt Disney Pictures / Awesome Stories\nThe wholesome Disney story we all know and love has an ugly origin, according to one historian.\nGerman researched Eckhard Sander presented a disturbing theory about the story in 1994: that it was inspired by Bavarian noblewoman Margarete von Waldeck.\nWaldeck did have a stepmother who probably disliked her, because she was sent away from her home to live at court in Brussels. There, she met and fell in love with Prince Philip II of Spain.\nThe fact that Waldeck died suddenly at age 21, and her shaky handwriting in the months before her death, made Sander suspect she was poisoned. But her stepmother had died eight years before she did.\nIt could be that Prince Philip's father, the king of Spain, had Waldeck murdered to end their affair.\nLoren Javiery - Flickr\nAnd what about the happy dwarfs? Another story from German history is said to be the inspiration.\nAccounts say that a man once ran a copper mine staffed by children, who became deformed and sick because of their harsh work.\nSupposedly, the mine owner would even offer poisoned fruit to his \"dwards,\" especially if they misbehaved or stole from him.\nDid you realize your favorite fairy tales came from such sad stories?",

        "raw_content": "Information Security: What to Shred at Work and Home\nWhen it comes to keeping confidential information out of the hands of information thieves, it\u2019s important to know exactly what information they want and to protect that data from creation to disposal.\nThis rule of thumb is important in the workplace and at home.\nIn the workplace, a comprehensive document management process can help identify and protect confidential information throughout its lifetime. The process would include a records retention policy, and limiting access to information. Business shredding is also largely directed by privacy laws and other regulations. Organizations have a legal obligation to protect the privacy of clients, customers and employees by securely destroying confidential information that is no longer needed. Working with a trusted and reliable document shredding partner will help avoid lawsuits, penalties, and data breaches.\nOutside the workplace, public awareness campaigns such as National Consumer Protection Week (NCPW) held March 5-11 in the U.S., and Fraud Prevention Month in Canada, remind individuals to better protect confidential information so it isn\u2019t stolen and used for identity theft. Everyone is urged to be careful about who they give their personal information to.\nDon\u2019t just throw out confidential papers. According to an earlier Ponemon study, the trash bin is one of the areas where paper documents are most at risk. Except where prohibited by local regulation, dumpster diving in outdoor garbage and recycling bins is legal and can occur in residential areas too.\nFor personal document shredding, first learn what information must be kept. Consumers should check state/provincial and other laws so they know what documentation must be kept indefinitely (such as birth and death certificates, Social Security cards, marriage/divorce papers, citizenship papers, adoption papers) or for how long (tax information).\nHere\u2019s a guide to knowing what to shred securely when no longer needed:\nPersonal records: Any documents that contain a signature and include name, address, phone number, e-mail address, account numbers, social security number, driver\u2019s license, and medical, legal, tax, and financial information; miscellaneous information such as address labels from junk mail and magazines, unsolicited mail offers, travel itineraries, tickets, boarding passes and luggage tags, expired passports and visas, legal documents, passwords and PIN numbers.\nCorporate: Supplier and customer information; data pertaining to research and development, sales and marketing, executive and corporate information, HR, accounting and IT. It's also a good idea to shred printed presentations to prevent sensitive insider information from falling into the wrong hands.\nBanking: All financial documentation including ATM receipts, statements, returned cheques, pre-approved credit applications, investments, stocks and property transactions.\nRetail: Credit cards and bills, statements and receipts, expired warranties, loyalty program information.\nEmployment: Pay stubs, work records, job applications, performance appraisals.\nEducation: Report cards, loan information, school information.\nHome: Utility bills including telephone, gas, electric, water, cable TV, Internet; also expired insurance papers.\nPartnering with a professional shredding company that uses cross-cut technology and has a secure chain of custody ensures effective business shredding. A Shred-it All Policy directing all documents to be destroyed when no longer needed, helps reduce the risk of employee error and fraud.\nEffective e-media and hard drive destruction is also critical when it comes to the disposal of confidential digital information. Consult with your document shredding partner for more information.",

        "raw_content": "Big Data Analytics: Effectiveness, Ethics, and Emerging Trends\nDr. Satyam Priyadarshy, Chief Data Scientist, Halliburton and Kavita N. Priyadarshy, Founder & CEO, Sahas\nBig Data is the force for digital transformation of businesses. Many definitions of the Big Data exist in the literature, and the most relevant ones have one thing in common, that Big Data is not just about lots of data. For business context, the definition of Big Data that is most relevant and appropriate is given here. Big Data is about creating value from all the data, by leveraging emerging technologies, and full analytics value, to uncover hidden inefficiencies and take actionable insights, to grow the business through a continuous data-driven innovation. The value creation from Big Data requires Big Data Analytics and is the process of examining all data related to the business to uncover hidden patterns, correlations, market trends, and other information that would be useful for companies to be competitive and innovative. Big Data analytics is becoming increasingly prevalent in many industries. Depending upon the industry, Big Data analytics allows for the following: efficient and effective medical care, optimization of machinery, increased performance of devices, financial trading, personalized customer service, personalized shopping experience, improving law enforcement, and effective eGovernment, etc. Many of these areas include a significant amount of personal data. The Internet, marketing, retail and consumer industries have seen significant value creation through Big Data analytics. There are industries like oil and gas, healthcare, and education that are in early stages of their Big Data journey.\nUnderstanding the role of Big Data analytics in oil and gas industry is most challenging compared to any other industry. Recent reports suggest that the oil and gas industry uses only one percent of the data they generate, thus providing an opportunity to create economic value from the data. Big data analytics has been proven to increase production and effectiveness of oil drilling from six to eight percent (Bain, 2014). Big data analytics can also capture more accurate real-time data, improve plant performance and reduce oil-field costs. Big data analytics can allow an advantage in geology interpretation, new oil well delivery, and oil well and field optimization.\nImproving healthcare and public health is also where big data analytics is highly effective. The computing power of big data analytics can enable the decoding of entire DNA strings in minutes, which will allow to find cures and predict finding cures and predicting disease patterns. Big data analytics also plays a role in monitoring and predicting the developments of disease outbreaks and epidemics (Marr, 2016). Alongside that, the personal quantification and optimization come in with wearable health technology such as fitness trackers.\nBig Data analytics will continue to grow given the increased adoption of emerging technologies like Internet of Things, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, etc\nBig data analytics will give consumers real-time data that will enable them to best suit their personal health care needs.\nLearning Big Data analytics is also growing as new platforms of education and learning have become a source of gaining knowledge and interaction data. Learning Big Data allows for any user or company to use these large data sources and personalize and optimize content for their learner and students. The traditional methods of course and teacher performance are quite ineffective and provide very limited insight. The availability of real-time data from learning platforms combined with traditional performance review becomes a 360-degree view of learning and education effectiveness.\nAs discussed so many industries are taking advantage of Big Data analytics and a treasure trove of accessible data including massive amounts of personal data on the web through direct or indirect access to bring about various automated to semi-automated sensitive decisions that impact the social fabric of the community, nation and the world. These decisions can have a major impact on an individual\u2019s life. For example, Big Data credit scoring algorithm processes over 20,000 constantly evolving data points, including a person\u2019s online, mobile, and browsing behavior. Such use of a large number of data points and impact on social aspects of life requires an understanding of Ethics of Big Data analytics. Some of the ethical implications that may come with big data analytics is that these large chunks of data could accidentally be put in the wrong hands and cause someone to retrieve personal information about others, as well as commit different forms of fraud. While the implication is quite risky, it can be easily managed and secured. Some areas where big data is used have its benefits but also have its implications. One example is in law enforcement. Machine learning can allow law enforcement to identify robberies and access phone records to identify suspects in a crime; however, the implication of big data analytics in law enforcement can be the accessing of smartphones without a warrant or identifying suspects by web browsing habits. (Martin, 2015). In the education sector, big data analytics can be beneficial as it may individualize student instruction, take accountability for students in school, and identify students who are at risk for dropping out; however, the implications of it can allow the data to be used for possible admissions discrimination.\nBig Data technologies while providing new challenges for legal and ethical areas are also providing solutions for addressing the same challenges they create. In simplest term, one can mine the data in real-time and see if anyone is abusing the data or the information associated with it. These technologies are used by law enforcement agencies and nation states to safeguard the interest of their citizens. To a smaller degree, these solutions can be employed by industries to protect their assets and people.\nDespite the challenges, the adoption of Big Data analytics will continue to increase across all industries, as we believe that Big Data analytics is the force behind digital transformation of all industries in the current global economic environment. In the near future, we should see the extensive use of personalized and precision medicine for treatment of patients, primarily due to increased adoption of Big Data analytics. In the realm of education big data analytics can be highly effective in curating lesson plans based on each student\u2019s learning behaviors. There are three types of learners: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Using big data analytics, educators can ensure that every student\u2019s learning experience is based on a personalized method to allow them to grasp complex concepts.\nIn summary, Big Data analytics continues to be effective in many industries and areas of life, but by no means, its full potential has been exploited by any industry. Big Data analytics will continue to grow given the increased adoption of emerging technologies like Internet of Things, Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, etc.\nCogent IBS: Scalable and Flexible EM solutions",

        "raw_content": "Firefighter killed in gas explosion, fire near Madison, Wisconsin\nFirefighters had arrived to investigate a gas leak in the Madison suburb of Sun Prairie when the explosion happened Tuesday evening.\nSUN PRAIRIE, Wis. \u2014 A firefighter was killed and at least a dozen other people were injured when a natural gas explosion leveled at least two buildings in a Wisconsin community, authorities said Wednesday.\nFirefighters had arrived to investigate a gas leak in the Madison suburb of Sun Prairie when the explosion happened Tuesday evening. The blast destroyed several buildings and ignited a fire that belched a plume of ink-black smoke that could be seen for miles.\nMahlon Mitchell, president of the state firefighters union, identified the firefighter who died as Sun Prairie Fire Department Capt. Cory Barr, who also owned a tavern that caught fire in the blast. Barr had been with the department at least 10 years, Sun Prairie Fire Chief Christopher Garrison said. He also worked as a real estate agent.\n\"The Sun Prairie Fire Department is strong. We will keep on building from this. We are hurt, but we will come back,\" Garrison said.\nFive other firefighters, a police officer and at least six civilians were hurt, according to Sun Prairie police Lt. Kevin Konopacki. One of the firefighters was critically injured and remained hospitalized Wednesday, Konopacki said.\nWE Energies spokeswoman Amy Jahns said workers for a private contractor punctured a 4-inch (10-centimeter) gas main, causing a leak that resulted in the explosion that rained burning debris on downtown Sun Prairie and set vehicles parked nearby on fire. WE Energies did not provide the name of the contractor.\nThe Sun Prairie Police Department said people who were evacuated within a-half mile (0.8 kilometer) radius of the explosion were being allowed back in their homes once they have been cleared by a representative of We Energies. The Madison Fire Department's Heavy Urban Rescue Team was also evaluating the structural integrity of the damaged downtown buildings.\nThe Barr House, which was owned by Barr, and Glass Nickel Pizza exploded after the gas ignited, police said. Authorities did not provide details on the civilians who were injured, including where they were in relation to the blast.\n\"It looked like flames shooting out of heaven and just debris going everywhere,\" said Benjamin Berry, who lives in Sun Prairie, which is less than 15 miles (25 kilometers) from the state capital of Madison, has about 32,800 residents.\nSteve Owen, 60, who owns Sun City Cyclery and Skates in downtown Sun Prairie, said he saw firefighters and police officers on the street before the explosion happened. He said the building across from his shop \"literally lifted up.\"\nJill Thompson, 56, who lives about two blocks away, said she saw smoke immediately after the blast occurred.\n\"It shook the whole building,\" Thompson said. \"I thought someone had hit the building with their vehicle.\"\nSteve DePula, owner of Salvatore's Tomato Pies restaurant about a half-block from the fire, said he had known Barr for several years. He said they both served on a downtown business committee. He described Barr as a champion of downtown issues who worked to both preserve Sun Prairie and transform into a travel destination.\n\"He was very, very proud of Sun Prairie and the community he lived in,\" DePula said. \"It's a testament that he served as a firefighter to how much he cared about the community.\"",

        "raw_content": "Marin Circle, Berkeley (Four Bears Fountain)\nI frequently pass the four bears fountain at Marin Circle in Berkeley. The circle offers many views of the fountain. In any season and light, each view of the fountain is engaging. This painting depicts the fountain the way I visualize it from memory, combining multiple perspectives. In reality, one cannot see all of the surrounding streets and spaces between them from any one point - even from a bird's eye view. But in the painting, all of the radiating streets are visible. The result is similar to David Hockney's photo collages. Several views of Marin Circle are pieced together to create the illusion of a real space.\nMonkey Island Bike Rider\nI have painted Monkey Island (the park located on Claremont Boulevard and Oak Knoll Terrace in Berkeley) several times using the same approach. In these paintings I depict the neighborhood the way it sits in my memory. The tree tunnels and island cannot be located in one rectangular painting using conventional perspective. Because the the tree tunnels and the island of grass are integral to my memory of the space, I have pushed them all into the four corners of the painting. Another important element of this painting is the time of day. The shadows are long, and the filtered light gives a sense of protection. The fleeting figures also play an important role. One feels the passage of time in a special space that is at once real and imaginary at the same time.\nPlace Furstenberg Paris, David Hockney",

        "raw_content": "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (Critical Insights)\nby Mildred R. Mickle\nPublisher: Salem Pr\nThis title includes in-depth critical discussions of Maya Angelou's novel. Maya Angelou's \"\"I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings\"\" took the world by storm... Read more\nwhen it was published in 1969. As it shot to the top of best-seller lists, it made Angelou one of the most recognized black women in America. Despite controversy over its frank depiction of sexual abuse, the autobiography is still widely read in high schools and colleges across the country. Three decades after it was published, readers continue to admire Angelou's artistry, wit, and indomitable spirit. Edited by Mildred R. Mickle, Assistant Professor of English at Penn State Greater Allegheny, this volume brings together a variety of critical offerings on Angelou's famous autobiography. Mickle's introduction pays tribute to Angelou's achievement and examines the inspiration she drew from Phillis Wheatley's civil rights advocacy as well as the similarities between \"\"Caged Bird\"\" and Harriet Jacobs' \"\"Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl\"\" and Paul Lawrence Dunbar's poetry. \"\"The Paris Review\"\"'s Christopher Cox reminds readers of how revolutionary Angelou's autobiography was when it was published and recounts the comments Angelou made on her work in an interview with George Plimpton. Four original essays by Amy Sickels, Pamela Loos, Neil Heims, and Robert C. Evans provide valuable context for reader's new to Angelou's work. Sickels discusses the historical events that surround Angelou's life: the civil rights, black power, and black arts movements as well as the emergence of black women's literature with the first publications of Toni Morrison, Nikki Giovanni, Alice Walker, and Lucille Clifton. Loos provides a survey of the major pieces of criticism on \"\"Caged Bird\"\", paying special attention to the book's early reception and how it fits in the autobiographical genre and slave narratives, as well as issues of race, gender, aesthetics, and identity. Neil Heims discusses the struggle for a black identity through readings of both \"\"Caged Bird\"\" and James Baldwin's \"\"If Beale Street Could Talk\"\". Finally, Robert C. Evans examines the role that both formal and informal education play in the young Maya's maturation. The collection also includes ten previously published essays that examine \"\"Caged Bird\"\" through a variety of lenses. Critics examine the character of young Maya, noting how her rootlessness contributes to her perseverance and adaptability, as well as how Angelou's narrative technique allows her to recount the details of incredible life without being controlled by them. The book's treatment of sexual abuse is also investigated in the larger context of other black women's narratives of sexual abuse. Other critics attend to \"\"Caged Bird\"\"'s place in the genre of ethnic autobiography and the particular challenges it presents to teachers seeking to expose students multicultural literature; the childhood roots of Angelou's political activism; the influence of blues music on the narrative's structure; and, the young Maya's relationships with the black community, literature, and the women in her life.\nObjects of Desire: Design and Society Since 1750\nWhat Style Is It?: A Guide to American Architecture,...",

        "raw_content": "Could You Make Energy Savings In A Leased Office?\nIf you lease your office space you could be forgiven for thinking that there isn\u2019t much you can do about the overall energy efficiency of the building. After all, you can only control so much and even using LED light bulbs might not be possible depending on the type of light fittings you have.\nBut there are a number of simple retrofits you can carry out quickly and without too much expense, according to Utility Dive.\nThe organisation cited figures from the US\u2019s Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), which predicts that there will be a significant amount of unrealised energy savings in US businesses between 2016 and 2035. In fact, the EPRI puts this estimate at 605 billion kWh.\nUtility Dive acknowledges that it can be difficult to know what energy efficiency measures are appropriate in a given building, as well as to understand who should be paying for them and how to source funding.\nHowever, it adds that the cost savings can be worth the effort of assessing a building\u2019s energy efficiency measures and working out what steps to take to improve the situation.\nOne option could be to fit energy saving window film to glazing to help reduce the heat lost through the windows in your office.\nA study published last month suggested that the energy-saving potential of glazing is being ignored in Europe, with many windows across the continent either single glazed or uncoated double glazed panes.\nOne of the issues identified is that the regulatory measures to encourage energy efficiency in windows are not being properly enforced, according to the study\u2019s authors.",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / Angels / Navigating Through Society with the Angels (Key #4)\nSociety gives us an opportunity to practice being in the world, but not of it. In society, we have rules, regulations, \u201cshoulds\u201d, \u201cshould nots\u201d, traditions, habits and routines. These make up a plethora of \u201cticky-tacky\u201d boxes as we call them. We can learn to abide by the necessary laws and rules and not feel controlled by them.\nWe can learn to play the game of society without getting caught up in it. Who has \u201cover-done\u201d their Christmas shopping? Who has felt frustrated by societal rules and regulations at times? Who has said to themselves, \u201cwhat\u2019s the point of it all?\u201d\nWith a deeper understanding of society, we can feel more fulfilled and enjoy our work and social lives, our family and community activities.\n\u201cTicky-Tacky Boxes\u201d\nThe basic structure of society comes from science and religion. Today, science has given us many conveniences; for instance, cars and airplanes. Religions give us principles to follow such as the Golden Rule: \u201cdo unto others as you would have them do unto you\u201d.\nSo we have rules for driving cars or taking plane trips. The main purpose for these rules comes down to having respect for each other. It\u2019s knowing where our boundaries end and others\u2019 boundaries begin.\nIn the developed western societies we have many rules and customs, guidelines, should\u2019s and should nots. In the diagram to the left we show societies\u2019s rules coming out of science and religion.\nThe crossed lines in the diagram to the left represent the rules or guidelines of society. These rules can be written in laws or they can be unwritten and part of the customs or traditions. Certain rules from the outer world can be ingrained in us from our earliest earliest years.\nThe rules and guidelines form the \u201cticky tacky boxes\u201d. We can sometimes see these rules or traditions as frustrating and limiting us. Other times we may see them as helping to keep society organized so each person knows what he or she is supposed to do or not do.\nSometimes, all these rules, customs and shoulds and should nots can be like boxes that people have to live in. The problem in many societies today is the rules are sometimes over organized. Instead of being a means to an end, they become an end in themselves.\nThese rules confine and limit our freedom. This is especially the case in societies overly bound by tradition or who do not base their rules on clear principles such as basic human rights.\nOur angels assist us in many ways, especially in a bigger picture sense. They help us in being souls with a body, and not getting caught up in thinking only about the physical world. These higher souls can help us navigate these \u201ctacky-tacky boxes\u201d with the rules, regulations and customs of society.\nWhen I connect with my angels and see society as a means to learn, grow, share and provide my service, I feel freer. I find ways to be part of society and work with its rules. I realize the rules are there for my convenience, to create boundaries and respect for each other\u2019s rights.\nThese higher souls can help people rise above the challenges and keep their sights on the bigger picture of being evolving souls.\nWith involvement, I give myself opportunity to grow, to share and learn from others. If you are deeply involved in what you feel is best for yourself and others, that is great! We\u2019d love to hear from you. For instance, feel free to be part of an upcoming Face Book Live Stream or in other ways.\nMany of us are taught not to be involved, or do mostly what the outer world wants from us. We can pick up this attitude from our earliest years and it can continue until we clarify this bigger picture and our incredible opportunity on planet earth. We may have been \u201cburned\u201d when we got involved, or were overly involved.\nBut, when I sharpen my inner communication and intuition, I will know where I need to be involved, how much and what to avoid. With the help of the angels, I\u2019ve got it made, provided I take the time to work with these spiritual helpers.\nTrue Concern\nWhen I come from a place of true concern, the people I am involved with in society sense it. It\u2019s important to keep my true concern from becoming over-concern and getting too caught up in the outer world. Or, I can also fall into under-concern, or apathy, which is limiting and can take me off my path.\nMy best option is to clarify my bigger picture as a soul, the reason I chose to come to planet earth, the particular society I am in and especially the family that I incarnated into this lifetime. When I have this deeper sense from within and not from an outer belief system, then I will enjoy being more involved in my life, the people in it, places and things of the world. I can enjoy the journey more than ever.\nA Bigger Picture of Life\nHow do I keep this bigger picture when I am in the thick of it all? You may already have ways to avoid being too caught up in the outer world. If not, or if you want to learn more ways, you are welcome to come to a free webinar, FaceBook Live session and other talks and workshops available through this website. You can subscribe to our news at the bottom of these pages to be kept informed. You can also unsubscribe at any time.\nAn important key to navigating life on planet earth is to remember: It\u2019s all a means to an end and not an end it itself.\nYou might consider finding some time by yourself, when you can relax and say this sentence to yourself: \u201cIt\u2019s all a means to an end and not an end it itself.\u201d\nClose your eyes and repeat this sentence a few times. You can then ask your angels, God or however you perceive a higher source for any insights about how you can live this way more of the time. After tuning into whatever comes to you, make a note of any thoughts, words, feelings, pictures that come to you.\nIf you receive an insight, great! If you do not, it usually just means taking a little time to practice and open up your inner communication and you will receive right-on and helpful insights.\nAbove all, your experiences in society are about learning, growing and being the soul that I am. The outer world is a means to an end and not an end in itself. It\u2019s sharing what I have in a way that works well.\nIt\u2019s regrouping or learning from my experiences so I can stay above the fray, be involved in my life and gain the most from my opportunities on this earth.\nThis way, I can stay connected with my bigger picture, my good, kind, loving inner being and my angels.\nHow have you been involved in society while staying above the challenges and not-so-positive parts? We would love to hear from you. Feel free to let us know. Drop us a line, support@SpiritualGrowthKeys.com and we will send you back a simple way to regroup and gain the most from each day.\nOr, join us for one of the upcoming Facebook live sessions on this topic or other on-line or in-person events. We all can learn and inspire each other on our journeys.\nGo To Life Mastery with the Angels Series \u2013 Introduction\nGo To Your Good, Kind, Loving Soul Energy (Key #1)\nGo To Your Real Home and Overall Purpose (Key #2)\nGo To Head and Heart (Key #3)\nCopyright \u00a9 2018 GFI Services Inc., Alley Copyrights Inc., All rights reserved.\nhttps://www.spiritualgrowthkeys.com/navigating-society-with-the-angels-key-4\">",

        "raw_content": "NIGHT & DAY: Steven Wright at The Egg\nSep 27, 2016 Spotlight News Entertainment, The Spot\nSteven Wright (photo provided)\nAward-winning comedian, actor and producer Steven Wright this Saturday in the Hart Theatre at The Egg beginning at 8 p.m.\nRaised in Burlington, Massachusetts, Wright is a prototype comedian that many others continually try to follow. After graduating from Emerson College and holding a bevy of odd jobs, Wright attended an \u201copen mike\u201d audition and became a regular performer at Ding Ho\u2019s Comedy Club and Chinese Restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts.\nDuring that time, Wright was booked for his first \u201cTonight Show\u201d appearance on Aug. 6, 1982. Johnny Carson, the King of Late Night, enjoyed his performance so much that he invited Wright to appear again the following Thursday, pushing his fledgling career into high gear. The comic soon found himself performing his off-beat routines on \u201cSaturday Night Live,\u201d and \u201cLate Night with David Letterman,\u201d in addition to making numerous trips back to \u201cThe Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.\u201d\nWithin the next couple of years, Wright expanded his career to not only include comedy albums but film and television appearances as well. Both his debut and follow-up albums, \u201cI Have A Pony,\u201d released in 1985, and \u201cI Still Have A Pony,\u201d released in 2007, earned him Grammy nominations for Best Comedy Album. In 1989, Wright starred in and co-wrote a short film titled \u201cThe Appointments of Dennis Jennings,\u201d which received an Academy Award for Best Short Film. Since then, Wright has appeared in a number of films with well-known actors, such as John Cleese and Mike Meyers, in addition to writing, directing and starring in his own films. In 2014, Wright was nominated for an Emmy Award as a producer for the hit FX series, \u201cLouie\u201d and can be seen in Louis CK\u2019s critically-acclaimed new web series, \u201cHorace and Pete.\u201d\nCurrently, Wright regularly performs on popular late night shows and continues to tour both at home and abroad.\nTickets, which cost $35, $45 and $55 depending on seating location, are still available for purchase either online at https://tickets.theegg.org/TheatreManager/98/login&performance=26254 or in person at The Egg Box Office, weekdays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 3 p.m. until 30 minutes after the curtain rises the night of the show.\nFor driving directions and parking information, visit www.theegg.org.\nFor more information about Wright, visit his official website, www.StevenWright.com, or follow him on either Facebook or Twitter.\nSteven Wright, The Egg\nCooking what you catch Robert Earl Keen is showcasing his roots",

        "raw_content": "Istria, the largest peninsula in the Adriatic Sea, has a very rich history since the Prehistoric ages. Here are listed some of the best sights, spanning from the magnificent Roman artefacts of Pula to the age of Austrian rule.\nHome > Top Sights > Top historic sights of Istria\n1. St. George's Cathedral\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Janis Mogie\nAbove the compact Piran town centre reigns St. George\"s Cathedral, which gives the city its special character. It was probably built in the 12th century, but no exact data in this regard exists. In the 14th century, it was built to its present size. In the year 1344, on the Day of St. George, the cathedral was consecrated by nine bishops from near and far. It acquired its present appearance after Baroque renovation in the year 1637. The Bell Tower was completed in 1608, and the Baptistery in the year 1650. During these years, reinforcements were made to the hill on which the cathedral re ...\n2. Praetorian Palace\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Lucio Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ednez Gonz\u00e1lez\nDominating the southern side of Tito Square is the imposing Praetorian Palace, which has served as the municipal seat for some eight centuries. Its Venetian Gothic design dates from the middle of the 15th century, with the outer staircase and balustrade added fifty years later, and the overall appearance of the fa\u00e7ade taking shape in 1664 after significant renovations. After serving various purposes following the downfall of the Venetian Republic at the hands of Napoleon in 1797, the building underwent a decade long restoration in the 1990s and now once again serves as the municipal sea ...\n3. Pula Arena\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright www.fotoworkshop-4you.at\nThe Pula Arena is the only remaining Roman amphitheatre to have four side towers and with all three Roman architectural orders entirely preserved. It is among the six largest surviving Roman arenas in the World. A rare example among the 200 surviving Roman amphitheatres, it is also the best preserved ancient monument in Croatia. The Arena was built between 27 BC and 68 AD, as the city of Pula became a regional centre of Roman rule, called Pietas Julia. The name was derived from the sand that, since antiquity, covered the inner space. It was built outside the town walls along the Via Flavia ...\n4. Arch of the Sergii\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Following Hadrian\nArch of the Sergii is an Ancient Roman triumphal arch located in Pula, Croatia. The arch commemorates three brothers of the Sergii family, specifically Lucius Sergius Lepidus, a tribune serving in the twenty-ninth legion that participated in the Battle of Actium and disbanded in 27 BC . This suggests an approximate date of construction to 29-27 BC. The arch stood behind the original naval gate of the early Roman colony. The Sergii were a powerful family of officials in the colony and retained their power for centuries. The honorary triumphal arch, originally a city gate, was erected as a sym ...\n5. Pula Cathedral\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Verity Cridland\nThe Pula Cathedral is located on the south side of the Pula bay at the foot of the hill with the 17th century Venetian fort. The site of the present-day church has been used for religious worship since ancient Roman times and the first Christian churches on the site were built in the late 4th and early 5th century AD. These had gone through a series of enlargements and reconstructions over the ages. It is believed that the site of the present-day church hosted a temple dedicated to Jupiter Conservator in Roman times. Archeological excavations also revealed ruins of Roman thermae on that ...\n6. Temple of Augustus\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Picster Jimster\nThe Temple of Augustus is a well-preserved Roman temple in the city of Pula. Dedicated to the first Roman emperor, Augustus, it was probably built during the emperor\"s lifetime at some point between 27 BC and his death in AD 14. It was built on a podium with a tetrastyle prostyle porch of Corinthian columns and measures about 8 by 17.3 m, and 14 m high. The richly decorated frieze is similar to that of a somewhat larger and more recent temple, the Maison Carr\u00e9e in N\u00eemes, France. These two temples are considered the two best complete Roman monuments outside Italy.\n7. Pula Fortress\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Gruenemann\nPula fortress was built by the Venetians, situated on a hill in the center of Pula. It is interesting to point out that there are evidence that hill fort of the Histri was once in the same location. Because of its dominating position, the fortress was always used for defense of the city, bay and port. The fortress was built between 1630 and 1633, based on a design from French military engineer Antonio De Villa, so it belongs to the French style. It was always an important defensive point for Venetian control of the Adriatic. The stone from large Roman theater was used for its construction, alo ...\n8. Fort Punta Christo\nFort Punta Christo was built at the end of the 19th century by the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy to defend City of Pula, their main naval port. Situated on a small peninsula at 45 meters above sea level, Fort Punta Christo offers a breathtaking view of the entrance to the Bay of Pula, its breakwater, as well to National Park Islands Brijuni on the other side. The fortress is surrounded by a deep ditch and there are three entrances leading to the fort. Inside the fort are three courtyards through which you can enter the underground areas of this magnificent structure. The fortress has as many as 27 ...\n9. Euphrasian Basilica\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright simonjenkins' photos\nThe Euphrasian Basilica complex, including a sacristy, baptistery and the bell tower of the nearby archbishop's palace, is an excellent example of early Byzantine architecture in the Mediterranean region. The Basilica has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1997. The earliest basilica was dedicated to Saint Maurus of Parentium and dates back to the second half of the 4th century. The floor mosaic from its oratory, originally part of a large Roman house, is still preserved in the church garden. This oratorium was already expanded in the same century into a church composed ...\n10. Motovun Village\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Bernd Thaller\nMotovun (Montona) is a medieval town that grew up on the site of an ancient city called Castellieri. It is situated on a hill 270 metres above sea level with houses scattered all over the hill. On the inner walls are several coats-of-arms of different Motovun ruling families and two gravestones of Roman inhabitants (dating from the 1st century). In the 10th and 11th centuries it belonged to the Bishop of Parenzo/Pore\u010d. From 1278 it was taken over by Venice and surrounded by solid walls which are still intact today, and used as a walkway with unique views over the four corners of Istria. All ...\n11. Church of St. Euphemia\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright Ross Elliott\nThe Church of St. Euphemia is a Baroque church located in the heart of the historic part of Rovinj, Croatia, dominating the town. This three-nave church was built in 1736 over the remains of older, early Christian structures. The dedication was originally to Saint George, later to Saints George and Euphemia; the present building is dedicated to Euphemia only. Its fa\u00e7ade dates from 1883. The relics of Saint Euphemia are preserved in a Roman sarcophagus from the sixth century (but adapted in the 15th century). The church contains several treasures and works of art: Gothic statues from th ...\n12. Pazin Castle\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright erwan.lher\nPazin Castle is built on a solid rock situated in the middle of the town of Pazin, the administrative seat of Istria County. It is the largest and best-preserved castle in that westernmost Croatian county. The fortified structure was constructed of hewn stone, and, during its 1100 years long history, subjected to several major reconstructions and renovations. The Pazin Castle was first mentioned in 983 in a document issued by Otto II, Holy Roman Emperor, confirming the possession of the castle to bishop of Pore\u010d. In the 12th century the bishops of Pore\u010d ceded it to Meinhard of Schwarzenburg ...\n13. Nesactium\nPhoto from Flickr, copyright clairemcox\nNesactium was an ancient fortified town and hill fort of the Histri tribe. In pre-Roman times, Nesactium, ruled by its legendary king Epulon, was the capital of the tribal population of the peninsula called Histri, who were also connected to the prehistoric Castellieri culture. Some theories state a later Celtic influence, but who they were and where they came from has never been discovered for certain. It is believed that their main economic activities were trade and piracy all over the ancient Mediterranean Sea. In 177 BC, the town was conquered by the Romans and destroyed. Rebuilt upon the ...\n14. Veliki Brijun Roman Villa\nOn the western coast of Brijuni, along Verige Bay, stands a magnificent Roman villa rustica. Its construction began in the 1st century BC, and it achieved its greatest splendor in the 1st century AD. Certain parts of the villa were used until the 6th century. It consisted of several buildings for various purposes situated at carefully chosen sites in different parts of the bay. On the southern side of the bay stood a sumptuous summer residence also with an economic function with two peristyles. Also part of the complex were temples of the sea god Neptune situated at the end of the bay, Capot ...",

        "raw_content": "The Pont du Gard is an ancient Roman aqueduct that crosses the Gardon River in southern France. The bridge is part of the N\u00eemes aqueduct, a 50-kilometre system built in the first century AD to carry water from a spring at Uz\u00e8s to the Roman colony of Nemausus (N\u00eemes). Because of the uneven terrain between the two points, the mostly underground aqueduct followed a long, winding route that called for a bridge across the gorge of the Gardon River. The Pont du Gard is the highest of all elevated Roman aqueducts, and, along with the Aqueduct of Segovia, one of the best preserved. It was added to UNESCO&apos;s list of World Heritage Sites in 1985 because of its historical importance.\nThe bridge has three tiers of arches, standing 48.8m high. The whole aqueduct descends in height by only 17 m over its entire length, while the bridge descends by a mere 2.5 centimetres which is indicative of the great precision that Roman engineers were able to achieve, using only simple technology. The aqueduct formerly carried an estimated 200,000 m3 of water a day to the fountains, baths and homes of the citizens of N\u00eemes. It continued to be used possibly until the 6th century, with some parts used for significantly longer, but lack of maintenance after the 4th century meant that it became increasingly clogged by mineral deposits and debris that eventually choked off the flow of water.\nAfter the collapse of the Roman Empire and the aqueduct&apos;s fall into disuse, the Pont du Gard remained largely intact, due to the importance of its secondary function, as a toll bridge. For centuries the local lords and bishops were responsible for its upkeep, in exchange for the right to levy tolls on travellers using it to cross the river, although some of its stones were looted and serious damage was inflicted on it in the 17th century. It attracted increasing attention starting in the 18th century, and became an important tourist destination. It underwent a series of renovations between the 18th and 21st centuries, commissioned by the local authorities and the French state, that culminated in 2000 with the opening of a new visitor centre and the removal of traffic and buildings from the bridge and the area immediately around it. Today it is one of France&apos;s most popular tourist attractions, and has attracted the attention of a succession of literary and artistic visitors.\nRoman Sites in France\nPrehistoric and archaeological sites in France\nD981, Vers-Pont-du-Gard, France\nSee all sites in Vers-Pont-du-Gard\nFounded: 40-60 AD\nCategory: Prehistoric and archaeological sites in France\nPont d'Avignon (21,6 km)\nArena of N\u00eemes (18,8 km)\nAbbey of Saint-Gilles (31,2 km)\nAl\u00e8s Cathedral (41,5 km)\nFort Saint-Andr\u00e9 (21,4 km)\nMuseum of Old N\u00eemes (18,6 km)\nMaison Carr\u00e9e (18,8 km)\nAvignon Cathedral (21,8 km)\nN\u00eemes Cathedral (18,5 km)",

        "raw_content": "Home \u203a News \u203a George Bessette, Jr. Wins R.A.D. Automachine DARE Stock Rookie of the Year Honors at Stafford Speedway\nGeorge Bessette, Jr. Wins R.A.D. Automachine DARE Stock Rookie of the Year Honors at Stafford Speedway\nPosted on October 26, 2017 by Scott Running\tPosted in News\n(Stafford Springs, CT)\u2014For the 2017 season at Stafford Motor Speedway, 14-year old Danbury native George Bessette, Jr. made the transition from Wild Thing Karts on Monday nights into the DARE Stock division. After finishing second in the Junior Outlaw division points standings, in 2016, Bessette was confident he could make a successful transition to the DARE Stocks. After racking up a win to go along with 9 top-5 and 15 top-10 finishes to take second in the final points standings, Bessette took home R.A.D. Automachine Rookie of the Year honors, which carries with it a $500 bonus.\n\u201cWe expected that we were going to do pretty decent because we had a good car, good people working on it, and my father had track knowledge from racing at Stafford and he won a few races,\u201d said Bessette. \u201cWe felt like we had a good chance at winning rookie of the year. I think we had a pretty good season but we never expected to finish second in points. To be able to finish that well was pretty cool for us. It\u2019s great that R.A.D. does that for the rookies and I can\u2019t thank them enough for putting up the rookie bonus and also for helping us out throughout the season with small stuff, like spark plugs.\u201d\nIf Bessette had any reservations about making the step up from the Jr. Outlaw Kart ranks, he could always turn to his father for advice for his #39 Lasco Roofing and Sheet Metal machine. George Bessette, Sr. was a veteran of Stafford\u2019s Late Model division in the late 80\u2019s and early 90\u2019s and he has 2 wins at Stafford to his credit.\n\u201cIt was great having my Dad to work with because we\u2019re like two peas in a pod,\u201d said Bessette. \u201cI would go out for practice and come back in and he wouldn\u2019t just say what\u2019s wrong with the car, he would tell me to grab a water, relax, and think about what was wrong with the car. He would explain what changes he made to the car and maybe lift a little here or try this there and it definitely helped out.\u201d\nBessette showed that he was a quick study behind the wheel as he began his rookie season with an 8th place finish and he would go on to record top-8 finishes in each of the first 13 races before his top-10 streak ended on Sept. 8. The highlight of Bessette\u2019s season came in the Final Friday Night Shoot-Out on Sept. 22 where he collected his very first win after having come close earlier in the year with two second place finishes and three third place finishes.\n\u201cIt was really good for us to get a win this year,\u201d said Bessette. \u201cI felt like we had a good shot at winning a race this year but racing with guys like Johnny Walker made it tough, he has a ton of experience and a really good car. We were right there and we just needed a break and finally we got it and we were able to win a race. I\u2019d like to thank Lasco Roofing and Sheet Metal, Lew Seward Plumbing and Heating, Northeast Carpet, Associate Lightning Rods, Bagelman, The Joie of Seating, Goodhill Mechanical, Dad, Mom, Sister, Dean, Daisy, Chippy, Bones, Steven, Pauly, Brandon, Tommy Huse, Grammy, Tony, Papi, Reid Bogie, Uncle Bruce, and the list goes on, I can\u2019t thank everyone enough for all their support this season.\u201d\nWith a season of DARE Stock competition and his first victory under his belt, Bessette is looking forward to returning in 2018 and challenging for the Street Stock (formally DARE Stock) championship.\n\u201cThe DARE Stocks, or Street Stocks now, is a great division and it\u2019s really interesting,\u201d said Bessette. \u201cWe\u2019re planning on coming back next season in the Street Stocks and I feel like we\u2019ll have a good year. The car was running really well towards the end of the season versus how we started the season and I think we can be a contender for the championship.\u201d\nBessette will officially be crowned as the 2017 R.A.D. Automachine DARE Stock Rookie of the Year at the 48th Annual Stafford Motor Speedway Champions Awards Ceremony on Friday, November 17 at Maneeley\u2019s in South Windsor.\nTickets to the 48th Annual Stafford Motor Speedway Champions Awards Ceremony are $48 per person and can be ordered by calling the Stafford Motor Speedway track office at (860) 684-2783, by downloading an order form from www.staffordspeedway.com and returning the form to the track office, or by paying for tickets online.\n\u2039 Alexandra Fearn Wins R.A.D.

        "raw_content": "Launched in October 2008 to keep me busy for my maternity leave, Start Business in France has just celebrated its 1st year and is reaching an increasing audience. Over 20,000 visitors have read through an amazing 85,000 pages in this first year. Families moving to France from the UK, North American or even Australia are now finding some reliable information in plain English to help them start a business and a new life in France.\nNeedless to say that I am very pleased with the warm welcome I have received from existing forum members (280 members and counting) and visitors. My mind has been in overdrive over the last few weeks to search for new ways to help would be entrepreneurs moving to France, and I have come with quite a few new services, which you will discover very soon.\nYou may have noticed the new Phone help service. If you need to ask an expert specific questions to get over a roadblock, or would like to talk through your business ideas, concerns and issues to get you going - then please book a call. I will be taking a limited number of calls every week. I say limited, because I still have a day job as a professional small business advisor and 3 small children to look after.\nAlso in the pipeline are some business videos to help you with the auto-entrepreneur online registration form and explanations on what happens next. Other videos will be added on a monthly basis on various topics such as: how to set up your account with Net Entreprises to pay your social charges, how to make your auto-entrepreneur quarterly turnover declaration, etc. Send me an email if you would like to see specific topics covered.\nThe Auto-Entrepreneur practical eBook should finally be ready in November. I have been slightly snowed under with work recently and I have postponed the eBook publication for much longer than I would have wanted, but hey \u201cC\u2019est la vie\u201d!\nFinally, I would like to say a big thank you to my technical guru, Lee who runs the website design company (and who also happens to be my other half), for all the hard work he puts on a daily basis to develop my site and find some great tools to make my life easier. There is no way I could have done so much in a year, if I also had to catch up with the IT skills. I am hoping that the videos will help add more practical business information, but also add some personality or at least a proximity feeling to this site. So, all my thanks to existing forum members as well as visitors and keep reading.",

Recipients are urged to reply and donate to the Maryland-based Civic Council, which is not a nonprofit.\nThe FBI in Kansas City, Mo., issued a warning about them.\nThe agency didn't consider it a scam, but said it was confusing. A spokeswoman said they wanted to assure seniors the mailing was not official and they didn't have to send anyone money.\nThe Civic Council did not immediately return messages Thursday.

        "raw_content": "Tackling South Australia\u2019s economic crisis\nThe State Liberals\u2019 frontbench has been reshaped to better position the party to tackle the deep seated economic problems that are driving jobs, families and investment out of South Australia.\nIncluded in the changes is the promotion of four members elected in 2014.\n\u201cThe changes in portfolio responsibilities will deliver a Shadow Ministry with a sharper focus on combating South Australia\u2019s unemployment crisis through substantive economic policy development,\u201d said State Liberal Leader Steven Marshall.\n\u201cDeputy State Leader Vickie Chapman will now have responsibility in the critical portfolio of State Development to go with her roles as Shadow Attorney-General and Justice Minister.\n\u201cVickie will take charge of ensuring that our economic policies will work together to combat South Australia\u2019s devastating unemployment rate and the economic hardship that produces for so many families.\n\u201cDavid Pisoni takes on the roles of Shadow Minister for Transport and Infrastructure and Road Safety in the new Shadow Ministry. South Australians have lost confidence in a transport network that is slow, unreliable and in need of much stronger ministerial leadership.\n\u201cJohn Gardner will take charge of Education, Higher Education, Multicultural Affairs and the Arts. John is a natural fit for Education and his expertise in policy development will now be directed to reversing the sustained slide in education standards in South Australia.\n\u201cDan van Holst Pellekaan now has responsibility for Police, Correctional Services and Regional Development in the reshuffle. Dan has a strong record with law and order issues and the Weatherill Government\u2019s ongoing failures in respect of Regional Development is a particular concern of his.\n\u201cCorey Wingard will now have responsibility for Employment, Small Business, Manufacturing, Automotive Transformation and a new Cost of Living portfolio. The high cost of living in South Australia is crippling family budgets and it\u2019s time there was a strong political voice protecting their interests.\n\u201cThe new generation of Liberal MPs will assume significant roles in the Parliamentary Liberal Party.\n\u201cStephan Knoll will be Parliamentary Secretary for Waste and Deregulation and Parliamentary Secretary for Information Technology Use in Government, Vincent Tarzia is now Parliamentary Secretary for Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Business Start Ups, Troy Bell is Chair of the Regional Affairs Committee and David Speirs is Shadow Cabinet Secretary.\n\u201cI\u2019m confident these changes will result in even greater scrutiny on the failings of the floundering Weatherill Government.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Nearly half of office workers fantasise about having sex with a colleague\nAlmost half of office workers fantasise about having sex with a colleague, according to new research.\nOf those, 11% fancy sleeping with their boss, while 42% want to canoodle with colleagues or clients.\nThe poll into office romances by Printerland.co.uk, showed that a quarter of staff have slipped under the sheets with a workmate - with a shocking 30% admitting to having an affair.\nBut it seems their rendezvous don't go unnoticed, with 40% of workers suspecting their colleagues are in a relationship.\nDrunken nights out and social media accounts are to blame for much of Brits' lip-locking but most staff make advances during the brew run instead.\nAnd while some staff are keen to show off their new beau, many try to sneak under the radar because they're already romantically involved, according to the survey.\nOnly 68% of those who began an office relationship were single at the time - 12% were already dating, 16% were hitched, 2% engaged to be wed and 3% recently divorced.\nA staggering 43% have kept a tryst hush-hush for fear of getting fired, while 38% confided in one fellow comrade or a select few.\nOf the one in four respondents who have ended up dating someone they work with, 39% have gone on to tie the knot.\nBut for others, getting it on with a colleague is a mere pipedream, with 62% of men admitting to fantasising about a work relationship, compared to just 34% of women.\nHowever, blokes were also far more likely to keep their romance under wraps (48%) than their female counterparts (39%).\nThe survey also revealed that men are most likely to end the relationship as they didn't like working with someone they were dating.\nWorkers in Sheffield are getting the most boudoir action, with 31% claiming to have slept with an aide, while Aberdonians are least likely to get lucky with a colleague.\nCatherine Bannan, HR manager at Printerland, said: \"Working so many hours compared to our European friends, it's unsurprising that so many people are getting together with colleagues. It's nice to see so many of the nation's secret office relationships have resulted in marriage!\n\"But remember if you do get involved with someone at work and the relationship ends badly, you may have to work with that person for a long time, which could lead to a whole host of problems.\"\nThe average relationship between British work colleagues lasts 11 months, while nearly half survive 18 months or more.\nIn the USA, employers can ask that dating workers enter a 'love contract', in order to indemnify the company if the relationship fails and avoid a sexual harassment lawsuit being filed.",

        "raw_content": "If your business is taking advantage of the cloud to meet its operational and data storage needs, then you\u2019re already doing something right. The cloud has changed the way businesses function, but this also needs to extend to the way businesses think about data security. How is your business or cloud provider securing your critical business data and applications stored in the cloud?\nWe\u2019ve put together a list of four major pain points that you\u2019ll want to discuss with your cloud provider or IT department, whether it\u2019s hosted off-site in a data center or in-house on an internal infrastructure.\nData needs to be protected, whether it\u2019s on the network or it\u2019s moving somewhere else on the infrastructure. This is where encryption comes in. Encryption keeps data from being stolen through one simple method--scrambling it so that nobody can read it even if it is stolen. The way encryption works is by jumbling the data, leading to only those with the proper encryption key to be able to see the data. Encryption is little more than a security caution, but it\u2019s an important one all the same, as it ensures that even if you do suffer a data breach, your attackers won\u2019t be able to read the data without doing a lot of extra work.\nLet\u2019s say you host your cloud solutions off-site in a data center. This data center needs to have security measures put in place to keep out not only digital intruders, but physical ones as well. This can include having armed security patrols, biometric authentication procedures, and constant monitoring for any intruders. If you host in-house, you should have similar physical security solutions. Always be sure to have your servers monitored and stored in only the most secure of rooms.\nDepending on your organization's industry, you may be subject to very specific compliance regulations. For example, any organization associated with health records is subject to HIPAA, or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, meaning that they must meet stringent guidelines or face penalties in the form of fines and other accountability measures put in place by the act.\nStandard (Scalable) Security Measures\nThe same security measures you would use to protect your in-house network also need to be protecting your cloud-based systems. This includes an antivirus, firewall, spam blocker and content filter. This is all to ensure that your business\u2019 cloud solution is secure from external and internal threats. A Unified Threat Management solution can provide all of these at an enterprise level for your cloud-based network assets.\nStrata Information Technology can help your business secure its cloud-based resources through the implementation of proactive and preventative solutions.

        "raw_content": "Rua Jau, 54, Lisbon, Portugal\nHere \u201cPalace\u201d really isn\u2019t an overstatement. The Pestana Palace, located in a tiny residential district just outside the city center, occupies the grounds of a century-old estate, a manor house (with modern additions) surrounded by lush gardens \u2014 not quite the most convenient hotel option for getting out on the town, but more than worth it in terms of pure old-world luxury.\nIt\u2019s what you\u2019d have to call a luxury boutique; though not terribly small, it\u2019s a one-off, and the experience is a rich one, thanks to the unique city-estate setting and to the incredible amount of historical detail. Some old palace hotels feel like museums, with an atmosphere somewhere between sad nostalgia and outright decay. The Pestana Palace, however, has none of this, and manages to feel at once deeply traditional and completely alive.\nFor that you can thank the massive renovation. Rooms in the old villa are cleaner and brighter than ever, but haven\u2019t lost an ounce of character; rooms in the modern additions are in keeping with the style, but are slightly more contemporary, as they should be. The suites are absolutely lavish, almost over-the-top, while the grounds offer all guests the same charms: an outdoor pool, a spa and fitness center, and the Valle Fl\u00f4r restaurant, a traditional Portuguese restaurant with a view of the estate\u2019s sprawling gardens.\nValid credit card required. Infants under the age of 2 - Free baby cot. MINIMUM STAY * On New Year\u2019s Season (December 28 until 31 December 2013), there is a mandatory a minimum stay of 3 nights. * On Easter Season (April 17 until 19 2014), there is a mandatory a minimum stay of 2 nights.\nNearby hotels with availability: View more hotels in Lisbon:",

They were both out of place in their community yet a bond grows between them. I especially love the scene in the first movie wherein Toothless flies to rescue Hiccup at his dragon slaying tournament. Like a parent's instinct, Toothless can sense when Hiccup is in danger. Though this bond was tested in HTTYD2, it proved stronger than their nemesis so the day was won in the end.

His two most significant clients where he was able to develop and work within more creative open-ended relationships over the longer term, have been: the BBC where he provided facilitation and development support to small and large groups over a 14 year period [1990- 2003] engaged in rapid technological and market change; and the University of Exeter where he worked on the online coached MA program in Leadership Studies for 10 years [2004-2014] helping develop the program and providing one to one coaching to students during their studies. During this latter period he was able to carry out action research on his working practices in regard to the educational learning taking place within the context of student-coach relations during the 2 year program, to gain his PhD at Bath University.\nHis main focus now is on how to presence dialogic relations and the relational practices involved in increasing receptivity and responsiveness within groups and networks. Through these inquiries he continues to seek to reveal and influence with others, the processes involved in using more improvisatory approaches to organizing, and how people can learn to do this more often in the process of getting things done.\nIn the past he has been a Fellow of the Institute of Management Consultants and a Fellow of Exeter University\u2019s Centre for Leadership Studies. He has also been involved at various times in supporting learning activities at the Grubb Institute, Tavistock Institute, Kensington Consultation Centre, Birkbeck College, Kings College London, and Exeter University. He has also been an external examiner of the leadership syllabus of the Executive MBA at Scandinavian International Management Institute in Copenhagen.\nHis thesis which has the title Revealing what is \u2018tacit/rationally-invisible/in the background\u2019: an online coaching pedagogy for developing improved leadership practice through \u2018presencing empathetic responsiveness\u2019 can be viewed at: http://www.actionresearch.net/living/keithkinsella.shtml\nIn addition to his PhD thesis, he has co-authored a book [and contributed a chapter to a second book] on \u2018working systemically in large organizations\u2019, both published by Karnac London:\nSystemic Work with Organizations: A New Model for Managers and Change Agents, 1994.

This session will take a practical approach to contracts and drafting, including a review of the common elements of a written contract, typical clauses you are likely to encounter, the pros and cons of boilerplate and standard forms, jurisdictional issues, and other situations where your drafting skills may be put to good use.\n9:45am \u2013 10:00am: Refreshment Break\n10:00am \u2013 11:00am: Privacy and Compliance \u2013 What You Need to Know\nNewer in-house counsel often have little exposure to privacy matters before moving to a legal department, but according to CCCA members they are frequently assigned responsibility for privacy compliance along with their other duties. To avoid critical errors when it comes to the privacy rights of your clients, customers and employees, attend this session and find out how to comply with the law and protect your company.\n11:00am \u2013 11:15pm: Refreshment Break\n11:15am \u2013 12:15pm: Understanding Corporate Governance\nCorporate governance is the framework of rules and relationships by which a corporation must abide, including internal processes as well as governmental regulations and the demands of stakeholders. It takes into account systems and processes which deal with the daily working of the business, reporting requirements, audit information, and long-term goal plans. Corporate governance provides a roadmap for a corporation, helping the leaders of a company make decisions based on the rule of law and allows a company to set realistic goals, and methodologies for attaining those goals.

Our members often report that employment law and human resource issues consume the majority of their time. In this session, you will discuss common employment law and HR situations, examine critical areas of concern, and discuss strategies to help manage the HR function.\n3:45pm \u2013 4:45pm: Connecting the Dots\nOne of the most difficult parts about being in-house counsel can be figuring out how all of the pieces fit .

        "raw_content": "Swedish appeals court upholds Julian Assange's arrest warrant\nBy Himanshu Arora on November 21, 2014, 16:30\nA few months after a Stockholm District Court upheld the arrest warrant issued for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, a Swedish appeals court has also ruled that the detention order against him will remain in force.\nAssange, who is currently holed up in London's Ecuador Embassy, is wanted in the Scandinavian country for questioning over allegations that he raped one woman and molested another during a trip to Stockholm in 2010. He, however, denies the allegations, accusing police of making up the charges.\nIn his appeal, the Australian programmer argued that the warrant should be dismissed because despite making himself available for questioning in the UK, the Swedish authorities have refused to interview him, suggesting that the investigation \u201chas not been conducted with the effectiveness and urgency which can be demanded.\u201d\nAlthough the appellate court agreed with Assange's argument, saying that \"the failure of the prosecutors to examine alternative avenues is not in line with their obligation -- to move the preliminary investigation forward,\" it concluded that the arrest warrant will remain in effect, primarily because he is suspected of serious crimes, plus there is a risk that he will flee and thereby evade legal proceedings.\nAssange refuses to go to Sweden over fears that Sweden could in turn extradite him to the United States, where he could face charges over the release of thousands of secret documents by Wikileaks. His legal team is now planning to to file an appeal with the country's Supreme Court.\nProtecting Julian Assange has reportedly cost Ecuador millions\nCourt documents suggest charges against Julian Assange may be coming\nNew editor-in-chief for WikiLeaks takes over while Assange remains incommunicado\nSwedish ad regulator says the 'Distracted Boyfriend' meme is sexist to men and women",

The bar operated by Jim O\u2019Shea and Andrew Mischke is backed by a group of more than a dozen investors from the local music and hospitality industries.\n\u201cWe wanted to have a bar where you could get a good, well-made cocktail, but also, if you want a vodka cranberry or Jagerbomb or Budweiser, that\u2019s totally fine. We wanted to create a restaurant with a couple neighborhood bars that served a diverse community in the Lockeland Springs/Five Points area,\u201d Mischke said.\nThe first of those bars, Rosemary, quickly became a popular spot after it opened in May 2017. However, construction on Beauty Queen came to a halt nearly two years ago.\nThe Metro Historic Zoning Commission issued a verbal stop-work order on the Beauty Queen project in November 2016 because O\u2019Shea and Mischke reportedly did not have a valid preservation permit, even though a Metro Codes permit for rehab had been issued before the start of construction.\nAccording to the lawsuit, Metro Codes officials thought they were issuing a permit for a renovation project, rather than a project that involved an addition to the non-historic garage structure.\nO\u2019Shea and Mischke filed a lawsuit against Metro in February 2017 and learned this week the court ruled in their favor. They will still have to modify the partially constructed Beauty Queen addition to meet the conditions of the building permit, the court ruling says.\n\u201cIt\u2019s small investors, most of whom are middle class, so the last nearly two years since that stop-work order came down has been super trying for myself and my family and my business partner and investors,\u201d said Mischke, who has lived in East Nashville since 1999. \u201c\u2026 We\u2019re just happy to be able to move forward.\u201d\nMischke said plans for Beauty Queen are still being tweaked. The initial concept was to have a kitchen in Beauty Queen to supply food to both bars, which would be connected via an outdoor patio in the middle.\nBeauty Queen will have a different drink menu than Rosemary, but the bars will have some similarities. The goal is to open sometime this winter.\n\u201cThere are some positives to this \u2014 we were able to gather business data on the over a year we\u2019ve been open (at Rosemary), so what we do back (at Beauty Queen) may change based on what we know now,\u201d said Mischke, who added to stay tuned for more details on the forthcoming concept.\nRead or Share this story: https://www.tennessean.com/story/money/2018/08/31/beauty-queen-restaurant-east-nashville/1157138002/",

Check out this story on Tennessean.com: http://tnne.ws/1HlrB7V\nNatalie Neysa Alund, nalund@tennessean.com Published 8:22 p.m. CT Nov. 24, 2015 | Updated 12:24 p.m. CT Nov. 25, 2015\nSeat belt fines are increasing in Tennessee.(Photo11: The Tennessean)Buy Photo\nStarting in January, the seat belt fine will more than double in Tennessee \u2014 a state with one of the lowest penalties across the nation compared with several whose first-time violations top out at more than $100 a pop.\nGetting pulled over for not wearing a seat belt costs $10 for a first-time violation and $20 for a second offense. Starting in January, fines for not wearing a seat belt increase to $25 for a first-offense violation and $50 for second and subsequent offenses.\nIn August, the Tennessee Governor\u2019s Highway Safety Office and the Tennessee Highway Patrol announced seat belt usage is sliding downward in Tennessee.\n\u201cThe decrease represents tens of thousands of Tennesseans not wearing a seat belt this year compared to last,\u201d said GHSO Director Kendell Poole.\nAs of Nov. 23, 47 percent of all traffic fatalities in Tennessee this year involved unrestrained motorists, compared with 54 percent in 2010.\nTennessee leads program to increase seat belt use\nSince Jan. 1, THP troopers have issued 103,733 citations for seat belt law violation \u2014 a 252 percent year-to-date increase from 2010.\nSo far this year, there have been 50 fewer fatalities compared with all of 2014, THP spokesman Bill Miller said.\nTennessee is on pace to have the lowest number of fatalities since 1963. And since that year, Miller said, there is five times more traffic in Tennessee.\n\"Aggressive seat belt enforcement is always a priority for our department. We know that seat belts save lives, and we are hopeful that the fine increase will help change behavior across the state,\" THP Commander Col. Tracy Trott said.\nAt a maximum of 10 bucks a pop, Tennessee's first-offense seat belt violation fine is the lowest in the United States. Other states with the same fine are Wisconsin and Kansas. The most expensive state is California ($162). Not far behind are Oregon ($130), Iowa ($127.50), Washington ($124) and Hawaii ($112).\nAccording to the Governor's Highway Safety Association, seat belt laws are divided into two categories: primary and secondary. Primary seat belt laws allow law enforcement officers to ticket a driver or passenger for not wearing a seat belt, without any other traffic offense taking place. Secondary seat belt laws state that law enforcement officers may issue a ticket for not wearing a seat belt only when there is another citable traffic infraction.\u200b\nAs of November, 34 states, including Tennessee, have primary seat belt laws for front seat occupants. Fifteen states have secondary laws, and 28 states have laws requiring belt use for all rear seat passengers. Tennessee is not among them.\nWhen the fine increases in January, Tennessee will join 13 other states with primary seat belt law first-offense fines of $25.\nRead or Share this story: http://tnne.ws/1HlrB7V",

        "raw_content": "Only official finishers of \"The Toughest 48 Hours in Sport\" are awarded, and may wear, the exclusive cycling jersey of The 508.\n2017 Finisher Jersey\nIn 2017, we borrowed a bit from the 2015, but updated it with a fresh \"racy\" look. This simple jersey design was well-received, as we saw many social media post with finishers wearing the jersey throughout the year. We were pleased to continue the long-term partnership with PACE Sportswear, continuing a tradition that Chris Kostman developed with 508 partners throughout the years. In fact, PACE made the jerseys for the proto-508 way back all the way through the 1980s! A nice bit of history!\nIn 2016 we circled back to the extremely popular jersey design we used in 2009, 2010, and 2012, except in silver to denote the race's new name and location - Nevada, the Silver State! We also tipped our hat to the race's history dating back to 1983 by including the John Marino Open logo (1983-1990) and Furnace Creek 508 logo (1991-2013) on the left and middle rear pockets, as well as all three race historic race names on the collar. The race has been held in four widely different venues since it was founded in 1983, but the essence of the race remains the same: epic mountain climbs, stark desert scenery, desolate roads, and the race's reputation as one of the toughest but most gratifying endurance challenges available, bar none!\nSometimes simple is powerful, so in 2015 we simply swapped out a few colors from 2014 and - Bingo! - we had an awesome new design!\nIn 2014 we moved this iconic, historic race to the \"Silver State,\" Nevada. As such, we tasked Marcus Edvalson with updating his 2011 redesign to reflect the new landscape of the race.\nFor 2013, the thirtieth anniversary of the race, we updated the 2001 jersey (which was based upon Jonathan Boyer's RAAM 1985 jersey) and, of course, had it produced by PACE Sportswear.\nIn 2012 we also excitedly brought PACE Sportswear back on board to produce our official finisher jerseys and other cycling apparel! This brought us back to our roots as PACE produced the jerseys for this event from 1984 through 1994, but also now our garments are Made In The USA and sourced locally, from southern California! We had Pace produce a royal purple version of the super popular design from 2009 and 2010.\nThe 2011 jersey was deisgned by Marcus Edvalson, a veteran rider and staffer of AdventureCORPS events who is a brand and identity expert, art director, and very accomplished graphic artist. The jersey features the entire suite of new Furnace Creek 508 logos (note the difference between the front and back of the jersey, as well as the shoulder logos) which Marcus also created. Bravo, Marcus, and onward and upward, 508 and 508ers!\nThe 2009 jersey was so popular, looked so good, and so well reflected the spirit of The 508, we brought it back in a different color combo in 2010. Again, as I've always seen ultra sports as a modern day quest, we wanted to hark back to the days of the knights and chivalry with the shield graphic. Produced by Hincapie Sports.\nWe were a little bit influenced by the Swiss National Team jersey for this design, but more than anything, as I've always seen ultra sports as a modern day quest, we wanted to hark back to the days of the knights and chivalry with the shield graphic. Coincidentally, black and white is very \"in\" these days. Produced by Hincapie Sports.\nFor our 25th anniversary, we wanted something really classic and timeless. This was also the first time that the new race slogan - \"The Toughest 48 Hours in Sport\" - was featured on the jersey. This ties with 2001 as my all-time favorite 508 jersey. Produced by Hincapie Sports.\nWe'd hever had orange in the mix, so we tried that as a high-visibility, and hopefully unique, approach in 2007. Produced by Louis Garneau.\nI was at a loss to dream up a new design for 2006, so I used a stock Louis Garneau design with logos added into the mix. It came out quite nicely, but by chance was a bit reminiscent of the Discovery Channel Team jersey that year. We also made an aternate \"Veteran\" edition that year, shown at right, for veterans racers from previous years who wanted a new jersey. Produced by Louis Garneau.\nA few people have asked about the logo inside some of the dots in the polka dot design (as well as on the back of the 2005 508 hat and very small on the back of the 2005 508 shirt). I was inspired to use it because of its French connections (as we were knocking off the TdF's polka dot jersey design this year), because it was used by the Free French Air Force during WWII, and because it was the \"team ring\" symbol from Magnum, PI (worn by all the guys from Tom Selleck's Magnum character's Viet Nam unit). Way back when, it was used by the Knights Templar and more recently a simple version of it is used as the American Lung Association logo, an organization for which I used to work as an event promoter. To me, all of those uses represent \"fighting the good fight\" and that\u2019s why I think it\u2019s a good motif for the 508, an event I like to refer to as \u201cheaven on earth\u201d and \u201ca spiritual odyssey.\u201d Ultimately, though, the beauty of any symbol is that its meaning is entirely up to its observer. Click here regarding the Magnum PI connection (which sounds corny, I suppose, but it means a lot to Chris). Produced by Louis Garneau.\nThis jersey harked back to the 2001 jersey, without being quite so \"All-American\" in style. Produced by Louis Garneau.\nAs in 2002, this jersey featured all the totems which had been utilized at Furnace Creek 508, from their first use in 1993 through the 2003 editions. Produced by Louis Garneau.\nThis jersey featured all the totems which had been utilized at Furnace Creek 508, from their first use in 1993 through the 2002 editions. We went back to the red, black, and white color combo of 1999, but with much less white. Produced by Voler.\nThis design was a knock-off of the jersey worn by Jonathan Boyer during the 1985 Race Across America. I (Chris Kostman) was the RAAM Race Official \"in charge of\" Boyer during that race. As such, I drove along in a car for nine days from Huntington Beach to Atlantic City, watching Boyer, a Tour de France professional, compete in a dark duel with ultracycling legend Michael Secrest. Boyer's jersey had the same stars and stripes motif, with yellow accents. Produced by Kucharilk.\nThis was identical to the 1999 jersey, except blue, white, and black, instead of red, white, and black. I loved the 1999 jersey, so we \"recycled\" the art. Nobody else knew this, until now, but I was tipping my hat to Lon Haldeman with this color combination, as these were Lon's colors in his 1982 Great American Bike Race and 1983 Race Across America victories. Produced by Kucharilk.\nThis jersey was the first which I really designed myself. It was an almost identical knock-off the Bridgestone Cycles USA jersey which I received when I sponsored by Bridgestone in 1992-1994. When I send a vest version of this jersey to Grant Petersen, who had run Bridgestone back then, he laughed and told me that he had knocked off the Cilo cycling team jersey from Switzerland when he designed the Bridgestone jersey. I also chose these colors because red, white, and black, were always RAAM legend Michael Secrest's colors. Secrest won the original 508 in 1983, then known as the John Marino Open. Produced by Kucharilk.\nDesigned by Bev Schutte, an artist specializing in art for the cycling industory. It has various ultra racing elements, such as the sun and moon. Produced by Kucharilk.\nDesigned by Bev Schutte, an artist specializing in art for the cycling industory. It has various desert elements, such as the sun, fire, and desert animals. This was the first 508 jersey to feature \"AdventureCORPS\" as our company name. Produced by Kucharilk.\n1995 and 1996 Finisher Jersey\nDesigned by Bev Schutte, an artist specializing in art for the cycling industory. If I recall correctly, the giant \"508\" text was my idea, and of course the stage coach pulled by cyclists was our logo from the beginning in 1990. The 1996 edition was almost identical; the only difference was the briefly used company name (and corresponding logo) \"Chris Kostman Adventure Group.\" Produced by Aussie.\nProduced by PACE Sportswear. This was the last year we used a silk-screened jersey, before we went to the \"fully sublimated\" style which allows \"warp around\" art and a much better look and appearance. This jersey featured the AdventureCorps company icon for the first time, as well as similar icons on the back.\nWe were still stuck using silk-screening. The slogan on the back, also featured on the t-shirt from that year, was something that popped into my head one day, an alternate of \"out of the frying pan and into the fire.\" Produced by PACE Sportswear.\nFrom the beginning of the race in 1983 through 1994, we were using silk-screening to place the art on the jersey. This not only meant the jersey had to be primarily one color, it also meant the art would be effectively pushed down the chest by the length of the zipper. We did the best we could with th technology of the day. Produced by PACE Sportswear, as was the jersey in all previous years.",

        "raw_content": "CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta(Kevin Lamarque / Reuters)\nRobert Sherrill was an outsider by the nature of his work as a Washington correspondent for The Nation. A prolific anti-establishment voice, Sherrill was unafraid to play contrarian to the left or right of the aisle.\n\u201cHe took the shibboleths of liberalism and exposed them as what he felt they were,\u201d Ralph Nader told The Washington Post when Sherrill died in 2014. \u201cHe took liberals and progressives down a peg or two, or 10 pegs or two.\u201d\nBut Sherrill was also an outsider for a more obvious reason: He was denied White House press credentials\u2014and fought in the courts for a decade to obtain access in a case that has become an important precedent this week.\nAfter receiving credentials to the House and Senate press galleries in 1965\u2014a prerequisite for receiving White House credentials\u2014Sherrill received a letter in 1966 from the U.S. Secret Service denying him access to the grounds. No explanation was given. When he asked why his request for credentials was rejected, the Secret Service replied, \u201cWe can\u2019t tell you the reasons.\u201d\nThinking that his writing got him in trouble, Sherrill did not try to appease the Johnson administration. His 1967 book, The Accidental President, and the book that followed in 1968, The Drugstore Liberal, were assaults on President Lyndon B. Johnson and Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey, respectively. If he was being shut out for political reasons, so be it.\nRead: The president and the press\nIn January 1972, when Sherrill reapplied for White House press credentials, he was again denied without explanation. That\u2019s when the American Civil Liberties Union took his case to federal court. With the ACLU\u2019s help, Sherrill sued the Secret Service for violating his First and Fifth Amendment rights.\nBy the time a D.C. circuit-court judge ruled in his case in 1977, it had been 11 years after his credentials were originally denied.\nWhen Donald Trump clashed with Jim Acosta, the chief White House correspondent for CNN, at his post-midterms news conference on Wednesday\u2014and later revoked his press credentials\u2014he most likely knew nothing about the precedent set by the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals in Robert Sherrill\u2019s case\u2014precedent, experts said, that put the law squarely on Acosta\u2019s side.\n\u201cThank you Mr. President. I wanted to challenge you on one of the statements that you made on the tail end of the campaign in the midterms,\u201d Acosta started, microphone in hand, staring ahead toward the president from the front row of the press conference.\nTrump\u2019s lips pursed and then released. \u201cHere we go,\u201d he said, practically breaking the fourth wall.\n\u201cIf you don\u2019t mind, Mr. President\u2014\u201d Acosta tried.\n\u201cC\u2019mon, c\u2019mon, let\u2019s go.\u201d The president let out a half whistle from his mouth and motioned to his rival to hurry up and ask his question.\n\u201c\u2014that this caravan was an invasion.\u201d\n\u201cI consider it to be an invasion,\u201d Trump replied.\nThe exchange became testier and Trump\u2019s complexion reddened. \u201cHonestly, I think you should let me run the country. You run CNN. And if you did it well, your ratings would be better,\u201d Trump told the reporter.\nAcosta held on to the microphone as a White House intern tried to grab it back from him. \u201cMr. President, I had one other question, if I may ask, on the Russia investigation,\u201d Acosta said. \u201cAre you concerned that\u2014\u201d\nTrump lifted a finger and wagged it from the podium. \u201cI\u2019m not concerned about anything about the Russia investigation, \u2019cause it\u2019s a hoax.\u201d He walked away from the podium momentarily, readying for his next hit. Acosta gave in and relinquished the mic.\n\u201cI\u2019ll tell you what,\u201d the president huffed. \u201cCNN should be ashamed of itself, having you working for them. You are a rude, terrible person. You shouldn\u2019t be working for CNN \u2026 You\u2019re a very rude person. The way you treat Sarah Huckabee [Sanders] is horrible and the way you treat other people are horrible. You shouldn\u2019t treat people that way.\u201d\nWhen Acosta returned to the White House grounds later that evening to do a live shot for Anderson Cooper 360\u00b0, the Secret Service asked for his hard pass, which he had held since 2013, and confiscated it. They were just following orders, and he understood that; the orders came from higher up. His access was revoked: He was locked out of the Trump White House.\nTo explain why Acosta\u2019s credentials had been revoked, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Trump\u2019s press secretary, tweeted a highly edited video on Wednesday that appeared to show Acosta hitting the intern who tried to grab his microphone. Sanders wrote on Twitter, \u201cPresident Trump believes in a free press and expects and welcomes tough questions of him and his administration. We will, however, never tolerate a reporter placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern...\u201d Acosta tweeted back, \u201cThis is a lie.\u201d\nIn actuality, the video Sanders shared was doctored and originally posted by Paul Joseph Watson, a British conspiracy theorist associated with the fake-news website Infowars.\nRead: Video doesn\u2019t capture truth\nCNN immediately issued a strongly worded protest: \u201cThe White House announced tonight that it has revoked the press pass of CNN\u2019s Chief White House Correspondent Jim Acosta,\u201d the network\u2019s statement read. \u201cIt was done in retaliation for his challenging questions at today\u2019s press conference. In an explanation, Press Secretary Sarah Sanders lied. She provided fraudulent accusations and cited an incident that never happened. This unprecedented decision is a threat to democracy and the country deserves better. Jim Acosta has our full support.\u201d\nThe decision to revoke Acosta\u2019s credentials has led to condemnation from other journalists.\nThe White House Correspondents\u2019 Association denounced \u201cthe Trump Administration\u2019s decision to use US Secret Service security credentials as a tool to punish a reporter with whom it has a difficult relationship.\u201d The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press wrote, \u201cThis is clearly inappropriate and unprecedented punishment by the Trump Administration for what it perceives as unfair coverage by the reporter, and White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders\u2019 false description of the events leading up to it is insulting not only to the nation\u2019s journalists, but to its people.\u201d\nJournalists and a number of politicians shared support for Acosta, some calling for solidarity on both sides of the aisle and among the press corps. \u201cNews the White House pulled Jim @Acosta\u2019s credentials is not an attack on one journalist but all of the press,\u201d the veteran journalist Dan Rather, formerly of CBS News, tweeted. \u201cThere should be complete solidarity. This is a moment for any Republican who says they believe in the Constitution to stand up.\u201d\nMany Republicans and conservative journalists did stand up for Acosta.\n\u201cThe media is not the enemy of the people,\u201d the former Florida Governor Jeb Bush tweeted. \u201cThe freedom of the press is protected by the Constitution. Presidents never enjoy pointed questions from the press, but President Trump should respect their right to ask them and respect Americans enough to answer them.\u201d\nThe conservative blogger Erick Erickson tweeted, \u201cY\u2019all, I\u2019m sorry to defy the tribe, but I\u2019ve watched this video over and over and it looks more like @Acosta had his arm out pointing with his finger and when she tried to pull the microphone down, both his arms went down rather naturally.\u201d\nHowie Kurtz, the host of Fox News\u2019 Media Buzz, said that while he criticized Acosta\u2019s behavior, \u201cThe [White House] escalation is just making him into a journalistic martyr.\u201d\n\u201cNo ref would throw flags for the physical altercation,\u201d Ari Fleischer, a former White House press secretary under George W. Bush, said in an interview. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t a physical altercation; it was incidental contact. No flags should be thrown.\u201d Fleischer refused to defend Acosta\u2019s behavior or blame the White House for its actions, but he agreed that this was not about Acosta assaulting anyone.\nAmong those in media and politics, the widespread consensus was an obvious one: This was not about safety and security; this was not about an assault. Acosta was punished for the way he went about his reporting.\nRead: How does Donald Trump think his war on the press will end?\n\u201cThe White House Correspondents Association, the White House, and CNN should be sitting down together and separately to address this,\u201d Frank Sesno, the director of George Washington University\u2019s School of Media and Public Affairs, told me. Sesno is a former CNN Washington bureau chief and White House correspondent as well. \u201cIf there are professional concerns that the White House has about Jim Acosta or anyone else, they should express that professionally. They should be talking about that openly and there should be an effort to determine what, if anything, needs to change. The response is not engaging the Secret Service to pull someone\u2019s credentials.\u201d\n\u201cThat\u2019s just completely inappropriate and just this side of thuggery in my view,\u201d Sesno added.\nIn public remarks on Friday morning, Trump seemed unremorseful about pulling Acosta\u2019s credentials. The president threatened further punishment for reporters like American Urban Radio Networks\u2019 April Ryan, calling her a \u201closer.\u201d\n\u201cIt could be others also\u201d if they \u201cdon\u2019t treat the White House and the office of the presidency with respect,\u201d Trump said.\nSherrill never knew why the Secret Service had refused to issue him credentials; they wouldn\u2019t tell him. Only in 1972 did White House counsel John Dean and John Warner, the assistant to the director of the Secret Service, inform the ACLU that \u201cSherrill had been denied accreditation \u2018for reasons of security\u2019 on May 3, 1966.\u201d\nThe Secret Service cited two incidents that had little to do with the president\u2019s safety or White House security: Sherrill had gotten into a physical altercation in 1964, while he was a political writer for the Miami Herald, when he punched the press secretary to Florida Governor C. Farris Bryant aboard a Johnson campaign train. (He was arrested and fined for physical assault.) Additionally, the Secret Service noted that Sherrill had been charged with assault in 1962 in Texas.\nThe D.C. circuit court ruled in Sherrill\u2019s favor in 1977. While the court did not demand that the Secret Service issue him a press credential, it did set forth a series of new, transparent steps to ensure that no reporter\u2019s First Amendment rights were violated.\n\u201cOnce the government creates the kind of forum that it has created, like the White House briefing room, it can\u2019t selectively include or exclude people on the basis of ideology or viewpoint,\u201d said Ben Wizner, the director of the ACLU\u2019s Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project.\nThe new steps enunciated in the Sherrill decision to ensure that reporters\u2019 First Amendment rights are not violated include the requirement to give the reporter notice and the right to rebut a formal written decision, which must accompany any revocation. \u201cWe further conclude that notice, opportunity to rebut, and a written decision are required because the denial of a pass potentially infringes upon First Amendment guarantees,\u201d the court\u2019s ruling states. \u201cSuch impairment of this interest cannot be permitted to occur in the absence of adequate procedural due process.\u201d\n\u201cIf the Secret Service makes this kind of determination that they\u2019re going to no longer let someone have access, or limit access from the start, there should be a really good reason for that,\u201d Michele Kimball, a media-law professor at George Washington University, said. \u201cAnd if you are denied that access, there should be some sort of procedural due process for you, [so] that you can find out what happened. And it\u2019s sort of that check to make sure that, again, it\u2019s being handled evenhandedly.\u201d\nCNN declined to comment on Acosta\u2019s situation. The network did not respond to questions about whether Acosta planned to sue or whether he is taking the steps put forth in Sherrill that allow him to object, rebut the decision, and seek written explanation from the Secret Service.\n\u201cWhat they\u2019ve done here is not only unwise, but probably illegal,\u201d the ACLU\u2019s Wizner concluded.\nIn 1990, The Los Angeles Times profiled The Nation in its 125th year.\nSherrill had continued to cover the White House in the Carter and Reagan administrations, and he kept up his role writing about major corporations.\n\u201cSherrill is the ultimate outsider, journalistically speaking, which makes him the quintessential Nation writer,\u201d the Times wrote.\nHe clearly relished that role as an outsider, because when he won his 11-year battle with the White House to get credentialed, he opted against it.\n\u201cThe fun thing about this was that when I was finally going to get a press pass, I never applied,\u201d Sherrill told the Times. \u201cI didn\u2019t want to be in the White House. I had been in Washington long enough to realize that was the last place to waste your time sitting around for some dumb [expletive] to give a press conference.\u201d\nWhen all was said and done, Sherrill knew his best work would be done far away from the place he was never allowed to visit.\nOn Thursday night, Acosta\u2019s name was part of a triple-byline story on CNN.com. \u201cTrump considering [Chris] Christie, [Pam] Bondi, [Alexander] Acosta for attorney general,\u201d he reported alongside Jeremy Diamond and Sarah Westwood.\n\u201cWhen they go low, we keep doing our jobs,\u201d Acosta said on air Wednesday afternoon.\nAcosta, like Sherrill, had shown that the White House could revoke his credentials, but it couldn\u2019t stop him from doing his job.",

        "raw_content": "Obama\u2019s Extravagant Summer Break? More Like, America\u2019s Vacation-Deficit Disorder\nIt\u2019s not just that we don\u2019t take enough time off\u20144.1 days on average\u2014it\u2019s that we do such a poor job of using it.\nJewel Samad/AFP/Getty\nThe president is setting a personal record. At 15 days, Barack Obama\u2019s vacation on Martha\u2019s Vineyard will be the longest summer break of his presidency. The world is on fire almost everywhere, come the protests. How dare he do that?\nGive the guy a break \u2013 literally. It\u2019s not that he\u2019s exactly out of the loop. He can only go someplace where there are secure communications, a huge security presence and an easily ring-fenced site \u2013 like a small island within an hour\u2019s flying time to the White House. Wherever he goes the crises will follow, 24/7. (And the commander in chief will hop back to Washington for a couple of days in mid-vacation.)\nIn any other civilized nation this effort at some kind of summer escape would barely raise an eyebrow. But among all the world\u2019s advanced economies the United States stands out for what should be called a serious case of vacation deficit disorder. We are the only country that does not have mandatory paid vacations for its workers. Not one day. Zilch.\nRemarkably, Americans have not risen in revolt against this gaping inequality. Indeed, our acceptance of it reveals a great deal of confusion about that part of the Declaration of Independence that involves the pursuit of happiness. We\u2019ll fight for the life and liberty bits, but happiness\u2026? Surely happiness is most readily delivered by a decent vacation?\nThose avatars of hedonism, The Europeans, are aghast at discovering that the average American vacation lasts for just 4.1 days. They see this as further evidence of cultural collapse.\nBut I fear that this is the way that national stereotypes can lead to international conflicts of attitude. Invariably the example of France comes up. To begin with, this is the country that introduced a 35-hour workweek. Then there is the fact that officially every French worker is entitled to 31 days of paid vacation. But by exploiting other allowances, smart people \u2013 both government employees and company employees -- can extend that to five and a half weeks.\nFive and a half weeks?\nJust think, they\u2019re already in France. This is a country that more or less invented the basic ground rules for the pursuit of happiness. Let there be wine, food, music, and ravishing summer landscapes from Alpine meadows to Riviera beaches. (Forget Paris in August. Leave that for the Americans to discover that everything is ferme.)\nBefore you invoke images of a nation enjoying more indolence than industry, there is an uncomfortable statistic to digest. Specifically, comparing the output per worker in the U.S. and France. According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development expressing the Gross National Product in terms of value per hour worked, the U.S. comes out on top at $60.2, and France a close second, $57.7.\nOf course, GDP is an economist\u2019s yardstick, not a hedonist\u2019s. These numbers may be a measure of efficiency, but they\u2019re not a measure of the quality of life. Almost a quarter of Americans have no paid vacation time at all, and many of them are in the lowest-paid jobs. For those who do get paid vacation time, the lack of any regulatory framework creates wide variations in what employers grant. The total is often geared to years served \u2013 for example, 14 days after five years. But it\u2019s difficult to escape the conclusion that the brevity of the average American vacation betrays a high degree of angst about absence from the workplace. Those 4.1 days of vacation often include a weekend, minimizing the risk of finding somebody else in your seat when you return.\nAs a result, Americans are burning through leisure time without getting real leisure. At this point it\u2019s necessary to invoke the warning delivered by a British social historian, E. P. Thompson, that \u201ctime is currency. It is not passed but spent.\u201d\nThe best return on that perpetually diminishing currency in terms of leisure is \u2013 or should be \u2013 travel. Not just going somewhere, but coming back the better for having gone, while noting that although travel can broaden the mind it can do so only if the mind is prepared to be broadened.\nI\u2019ve heard people boast of \u201cdoing ten cities in seven days,\u201d which amounts to mindless consumption, not travel at all \u2013 not travel of the kind that gives something back of lasting value, purchases of the mind rather than the purchases that are stuffed into the suitcase.\nTravel with lofty purpose really began when it was accessible only to a small and privileged class with unlimited time to travel. Most notably, the English nobility who initiated the Grand Tour of Europe in the 18th century on the principle that their cultural sensibility could be greatly advanced by exposure to rediscovered classical sites in Italy like Herculaneum and Pompeii, together with the works and worlds of artists like Raphael and Michelangelo.\nBut these wandering toffs were forerunners of today\u2019s most egregious believers in personal entitlement. They wanted to keep the uplifting moments to themselves. By 1729 one of them was already complaining that \u201cRome is much changed to the worse \u2026 entirely owing to the British.\u201d\nThis particular wave of culture vultures was terminated by the Napoleonic wars, but by the end of the 19th century a new and more familiar engine of travel was spreading the word \u2014 elitist literary journeys: among them Flaubert\u2019s roaming eye in Egypt, Elizabeth Wharton\u2019s languid pensees on Italian villas, and later a more robust compulsion: Hemingway\u2019s adoration of matadors.\nIronically, these classic literary experiences no longer travel well. We may yearn for them but they are unreachable now, left in a past that seems almost to belong to a distant planet. How different it is for us today, when travel has been enabled by two forces: a newly affluent global middle class of which the Chinese are the latest wave, and the efficiency and economy of air travel.\nIn one sense this is democracy at work \u2013 a tour of the Uffizi in Florence is now a commonplace to a manager from Tokyo whereas in the 19th century it was still attainable by very few. But in another sense this democratization has led to commoditized travel \u2013 pre-cooked, packaged and marketed for groups rather than individuals at every level from the budget tour of Tuscany to the trophy African safari replete with luxury lodges in what is left of the wild.\nOften sold as \u201cbespoke luxury travel\u201d these trips require the advice of specialist consultants who frequently get paid commissions by the hotels they recommend. The more luxurious the trip, the more it seems that personal choice is delegated by the client to the planner.\nAt a price, such trips deliver such treats as private access to the Louvre when it\u2019s closed to the public. This is a strange way of getting acquainted with other places and other cultures \u2013 unless you really feel more comfortable remaining inside a portable bubble of your own well pampered culture, which I suspect is often the case.\nThese developments illustrate another point: that one of the most insidious ways to misspend the precious currency of time is use of the timetable. Organized travel demands the scheduling of every waking hour. Breakfast at 7:30; assemble with guide at 8:30; 15 minutes at Buckingham Palace at 9:30; half an hour at the British Museum at 10.30; an hour of shopping at Harrods at noon\u2026and so it goes, a disciplined progression allowing no digressions or risks of surprise.\nTo me this is the antithesis of what travel should be about. The essence of real travel is spontaneity. Plan as little possible \u2013 ideally just a beginning and an end, plus some advance reading. Then let things happen. Get off the beaten track. There will be completely unforeseen magic moments \u2013 settling at just the perfect table outside a harbor-side caf\u00e9 at twilight and lingering there, even going back the next evening. Technology has actually made this kind of unplanned traveling easier. A cell phone can now tell you which hotels nearby have last-minute vacancies, and deliver user reviews.\nTo be sure, there will be mistakes, some surprises you would rather have avoided \u2013 the elevator redolent of some flaw in the municipal sewage system, or a promising road that leads to a pig farm. But accidents, both good and bad, are part of a real traveler\u2019s education.\nThose aristos who could spend a year or more on the Grand Tour returned believing that they were without doubt the world\u2019s best travelers. Who could fairly be called the world\u2019s best travelers today?\nI would vote for the Australians. For many of them, it\u2019s partly to do with living on an island continent distant from their European roots. In the days when they could travel to Europe only be sea, Australian families planned and saved up for long absences abroad in the manner of the Grand Tour and they were \u2013 and still are \u2013 enthusiastic imbibers of other cultures and ideas.\nBut now their country has an enlightened policy about paid leave. After 10 years working for the same employer they are entitled to more than eight weeks of paid vacation on top of the basic annual allowance of 20 to 25 days. As a result, Australians can spend months in Europe, Asia, and the Americas without any time pressures.\nThat\u2019s a state of bliss that most Americans, locked in the grip of vacation deficit disorder, can only dream of. Hard-wired into the psyche of many is the idea that somehow time off is akin to sloth. Yet when it comes to sloth we have surely produced the world\u2019s current best in class \u2013 members of Congress. By the end of its current year the House of Representatives will have been in session for fewer than 135 days, turning up for an average of 28 hours a week (with very little to show for it.) Not even the French have got their working week down to that level.",

        "raw_content": "Tisha B'Av: It's Not All About the Temple\nElisheva Goldberg explores the Temple Institute's video, which encourages Jews to rebuild the Temple, aired in anticipation of today\u2019s Jewish fast of Tisha B\u2019Av.\nThe most recent video produced by the Temple Institute is the second in the \"The Children Are Ready\" series (the first was controversial for other reasons). The video aired about a week ago, in anticipation of today\u2019s Jewish fast of Tisha B\u2019Av. At first I couldn't put my finger on why I found it so unsettling. And I think the reason is twofold. First: Tisha B\u2019Av, for me, is much less about the Temple and much more about Jewish history. And second, the video is, at its core, fundamentalist.\nLet\u2019s start with the second reason. The video depicts Jewish men in synagogue on the eve of the fast of the Ninth of Av, and then cuts to a scene of children playing, with one child standing aside. That child, looking on with a painting of the Temple in the background, then takes a step up and begins to preach and rally others, who stare at him in awe. He then begins doling out tool belts with plastic hammers and wrenches, leaving the viewer with little doubt as to what the kids hope to build. The final scene in the barely two and a half minute clip is of these children coming into the synagogue and dramatically taking prayer-shawl-adorned adult men by the hand, and walking them out the door into a bright, white light. The only words of the clip appear at the end: \"The Children Are Ready.\u201d\nIt took watching the video maybe a dozen times to help me identify what I sensed was unwholesome here: The video feeds and then validates a certain, arguably built-in, messianic urge to be swept up in an End of Days drama where a \u201chouse of prayer for all the nations\u201d can finally stand and be a \u201clight to all the nations.\u201d\nThe sentiment itself isn\u2019t necessarily problematic\u2014a desire for bringing peace and harmony can\u2019t be entirely bad, after all. The thing is, most religious people I know (and excluding certain Members of the Knesset), don't think that the Temple will actually be built. In fact, if you ask them, they'd probably say that they don't really want animal sacrifices to resume or that they're not so keen on going back to a caste hierarchy. But more to the point, most Jews aren't about to try and make that reality come to life. And that's what's creepy about this video. The folks at the Temple Institute want to physically build the Temple\u2014if not today, then tomorrow.\nLast July International Director of the Temple Institute Rabbi Chaim Richman, in an interview, gave voice to this sensibility:\nYou know reality is also subjective\u2014children haven't been taught yet that there are certain things that are impossible \u2026 nothing is going to change if we go through this mourning cycle, this rite of mourning, year after year thinking that one day if we're good children the Temple is going to come down from heaven, you know, in a fiery hologram \u2026 you know what, miracles of the Jewish people \u2026 are the miracles that we bring about\u2014that's how miracles happen.\nThis is Jewish fundamentalism. If we, as Jews, are to take our Torah, our Bible, at its most literal\u2014this is the logical conclusion: Build the Temple. The argument might go like this: Jews are sovereign, have wealth, and are fully capable of \u201credeeming\u201d the Temple Mount. In this scenario, Jewish history, they claim, leads not to the mourning of the Holy Temple and the ruin of the Jewish people through the ages, but to the celebration of a new day, a New Jew, and a new Temple\u2014and finally, the fulfilling of an old commandment.\nThis argument comes from the same kind of religious historicity found primarily in Christian fundamentalism\u2014a sense that, though we may live in modern times (and, after all, the proprietors of the Temple Institute are not ultra-Orthodox; they live in a \u201cmodern\u201d context, with both modern language and lifestyle), what is written never changes with those times. The Bible is the same Bible it was for Abraham, Moses, Solomon, and me. Richman, in 2009, said it precisely: \u201cWe\u2019re supposed to build the Temple, and nothing about that changed. Nothing about that commandment changed.\u201d Simultaneously, he says, he is \u201cpreparing operational blueprints for the construction of the Temple according to the most modern standards.\u201d\nI\u2019m not going to argue with these fundamentalists, my fellow Jews (I actually did see a friend of mine as I was browsing through the Temple Institute\u2019s YouTube archive)\u2014not today, not on Tisha B\u2019Av when we all try and avoid baseless hatred (also because it is doubtful that I could convince them). Which brings me to my second reason: There is something profound about living in Jerusalem on this day, perhaps the saddest, most lachrymose day on the Jewish calendar, and it\u2019s not all about the Temple.\nYes, today marks the day on which the Temple was destroyed\u2014twice. But it also goes back to the Bible, commemorating, among others, the sin of the Golden Calf. It is the commencement day of the First Crusade of 1096. It is around the time of decrees expelling Jews from England, France, and Spain in 1290, 1306, and 1492 respectively. It was two days after that date in 1941 that G\u00f6ring sent a letter to Heydrich instructing him to devise \"the solution of the Jewish problem\" and the date the mass deportation of 300,000 souls began from the Warsaw Ghetto to the death camp of Treblinka. It is the day before the AMIA bombing in the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, and of course not coincidentally, the day after which Israel began its disengagement from Gaza in 2005 (which is still being used as a political tool).\nTisha B\u2019Av for me can also be about the Temple\u2014but only in the context of Jewish history and not in the context of the modern world. In the modern world, such things will almost certainly lead to tragedy and we will be doomed to go round and round on the axis of history, as if on a carousel we can't get off.",

        "title": "Buffer Options for New Hampshire's Great Bay | Fishing Wire",
        "raw_content": "Buffer Options for New Hampshire's Great Bay\nDURHAM, NH \u2013 N.H. Fish and Game's Great Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (GBNERR) and the New Hampshire chapter of the Nature Conservancy have co-led a project over the past few years aiming to better understand how to protect buffers more effectively in coastal New Hampshire. Called \u201cBuffer Options for the Bay\u201d or \u201cBOB,\u201d the project has created a website, bufferoptionsnh.org, and a suite of reports and maps to support policy and land use decisions in New Hampshire\u2019s Great Bay region. These resources give recommendations for buffer width and how to get a conversation started in your town about buffers, as well as economic statistics on how valuable services such as clean water are to residents.\nBuffers are things that reduce the shock of contact. A good example is airbags, which cushion the impact of a crash. Likewise, the land running along the water\u2019s edge is a buffer against the impact of development on a water body. Healthy, intact buffers help keep our waters clean and our basements dry, offer a home for wildlife, and protect oyster beds and eelgrass. They provide all these benefits and more by moderating some of the major stressors on the health of our region\u2019s water bodies, including water quality problems, rising sea levels, extreme storms, and loss of habitat.\n\"Buffers are a simple, nature-based solution,\u201d said GBNERR Program Supervisor Cory Riley. \u201cWe need to understand where and how they work best, and what our current challenges are in New Hampshire to protecting buffers more systematically in the watershed.\"\nAs with many environmental issues, the challenges associated with buffer management stem from the interplay of natural systems, community perspectives and values, economics, and the regulatory environment. To address this complexity, the project assembled a diverse group of experts encompassing resource managers, social scientists, ecologists, hydrologists, and economists. This team produced a range of detailed and stand-alone products related to buffers, including a synthesis of peer-reviewed literature in the fields of ecology and economics; an assessment of community attitudes and values towards buffers; an analysis of municipal and state policies relating to the issue; an economic valuation of water quality in the Great Bay ecosystem based on a meta-analysis approach; and maps identifying priorities for buffer protection and restoration within each town in the watershed. The team also worked with an advisory committee to compile a detailed list of potential actions that can be taken to advance the effectiveness of buffer management in the watershed.\nThe information and tools available on the website can be used to inform a range of activities, including land acquisition, management, and protection; restoration; community engagement and decision maker training; and policy making.\nThe project was sponsored by the National Estuarine Research Reserve System Science Collaborative, which supports collaborative research that addresses coastal management problems important to reserves and their communities. The Science Collaborative is funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and managed by the University of Michigan Water Center.",

        "raw_content": "Unemployment will soar above 3 million in 2009, say chambers of commerce\nUnemployment will soar above 3 million as Britain's manufacturers, retailers and service industries feel the full effects of the downturn, according to the British Chambers of Commerce, which said economic output is set to fall this year by more than in the last recession of the 1990s.\nThe jobless count will rise to 3.1 million, or 10% of the workforce, the business group predicted. It said the UK economy could shrink by as much as 2.9%, leaving the country to face the \"distinct risk\" of deflation this year. As a result, the government's depleted finances will remain in a parlous state for many years.\nThe BCC's gloomy forecast was matched by analysis from Experian that predicted that up to 1,400 retailers would be forced out of business over the coming year. The retail consultancy said there was no disguising that 2008 was \"an annus horribilis\" for the retail sector and there was little prospect of improvement in 2009.\nA last-minute dash to the shops at Christmas failed to lift footfall figures to last year's level, Experian said. Shopper numbers were 3.1% lower in December than they had been in the same month of 2007, despite heavy discounting that in many cases wiped out profit margins.\nExperian said there had been a 21% year-on-year jump in the number of retail insolvencies, with high-profile casualties such as Woolworths, Adams and Zavvi all calling in the administrators. It predicted a further 440 retail businesses would fail in the first four months of 2009, with a total of 1,400 going under in the year as a whole.\nEconomists lined up to support the view that 2009 would be one of the worst years for the economy and could trigger a longer-than-predicted slump in national output.\nHoward Archer, of Global Insight, said the economy would contract by 2.7% as the effects of the banking crisis gripped the real economy.\n\"Consumer spending is being hammered by accelerating unemployment, muted income growth, high utility bills and food prices, very tight lending practices, heightened debt levels, a depressed housing market and substantially lower equity prices,\" he said. \"Additionally, heightened concerns about the economic outlook are leading consumers to tighten their belts.\n\"The Bank of England's cutting of interest rates by a total of 300 basis points between October and December, and undoubtedly more reductions to come, will obviously help consumers, as will some of the measures contained in the government's \u00a320bn stimulative fiscal package announced in November's pre-budget report. Nevertheless, consumers will face serious pressures for an extended period, and will be particularly hit by sharply \u00adrising unemployment in 2009. Consequently, we expect consumer spending to contract by around 2% in real terms in 2009.\"\nArcher predicted house prices would fall another 15%, while Capital Economics said it could be as much as 20% as the cost of the average home headed for a 50% fall from its peak in the summer of 2007.\nThe BCC said it believed there was a risk of deflation in the second half of this year, while government borrowing would increase to \u00a3130bn.\nDavid Frost, BCC director general, said: \"I have worked through three recessions now and 2009 looks like it will be one of the toughest years I have ever seen for the UK.\n\"Some of the strain can be avoided, but only if the government can address the two key problems of confidence and cash flow. We must avoid losing viable companies during this downturn.\"\nDavid Kern, chief economist at the BCC, added that the UK's prospects had worsened significantly since the group's last forecast at the end of 2008. The BCC was now predicting bigger declines in economic output, higher unemployment and larger government borrowing than envisaged in November.\nUnpredictable 2008\nLast year most City analysts were wrong on house price inflation, wrong on unemployment, wrong on interest rates and wrong on the severity and depth of the recession in 2008.\nTo be fair, most of them were near the mark until the Lehman Brothers collapsed. As the governor of the Bank of England, Mervyn King, said, Lehmans changed everything. King, who was also wrong-footed by events, was predicting until the summer that the UK economy was robust and all we needed to worry about was inflation.\nIn January last year the CBI believed the growth in national income for 2008 would be 2%. Today, GDP growth looks more like being 0.8%.\nThe Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors suggested that 2008 would be a game of two halves for the property market. It said house prices will would end the year broadly unchanged as first-time buyers buoyed the market. Instead, we had the sharpest decline in house prices since the 1970s.\nMost economists opted for predicted that base rates at the end of the year of would be 4% to 4.5%. Roger Bootle, economic adviser to Deloitte & Touche, picked 4%, while David Brown at the soon-to-go-bust Bear Stearns, said: \"UK rates should be at 4.5% by the end of 2008.\" Now they stand at 2% and with will fall further, to fall according to many experts.\nHousing market braced for brutal 2009 as prices and mortgage lending plunge\nLatest Halifax numbers show a 16% fall on 2007 levels, meaning that the average price of \u00a3159,900 is a fifth lower than the peak of the housing bubble in 2007\nLenders resist pressure to pass on rate cuts\nSterling falls as numbers point to continued gloom for the economy",

        "title": "The Low-Down: Why People Fall For Fake News: The Research",
        "raw_content": "Why People Fall For Fake News: The Research\nThere are two main points of view. One set of researchers believes people rationalize the facts to fit their preconceptions. The other says, in line with the evidence of people's preference for convenience regarding the internet, that they're prone to mental laziness and will adjust their views when presented with sensible arguments.\nThe two sets of arguments and supporting research are not that far apart and draw from each other, suggesting that the real issue is that technology has made it too easy for people to believe whatever they want. JL\nGordon Pennycook and David Rand report in the New York Times:\nOne group claims our ability to reason is prone to rationalization. The other group claims that the problem is that we often fail to exercise our critical faculties: that is, we\u2019re mentally lazy. Cultivating reasoning abilities should be part of the solution to the misinformation that circulates on social media. New research provides evidence that even in highly political contexts, people are not as irrational as the rationalization camp contends. Correcting partisan misperceptions does not backfire most of the time but leads to more accurate beliefs.\nTo test this possibility, we recently ran a set of studies in which participants of various political persuasions indicated whether they believed a series of news stories. We showed them real headlines taken from social media, some of which were true and some of which were false. We gauged whether our participants would engage in reasoning or \u201cgo with their gut\u201d by having them complete something called the cognitive reflection test, a test widely used in psychology and behavioral economics. It consists of questions with intuitively compelling but incorrect answers, which can be easily shown to be wrong with a modicum of reasoning. (For example: \u201cIf you\u2019re running a race and you pass the person in second place, what place are you in?\u201d If you\u2019re not thinking you might say \u201cfirst place,\u201d when of course the answer is second place.)\nWe found that people who engaged in more reflective reasoning were better at telling true from false, regardless of whether the headlines aligned with their political views. (We controlled for demographic facts such as level of education as well as political leaning.) In follow-up studies yet to be published, we have shown that this finding was replicated using a pool of participants that was nationally representative with respect to age, gender, ethnicity and region of residence, and that it applies not just to the ability to discern true claims from false ones but also to the ability to identify excessively partisan coverage of true events.\nOur results strongly suggest that somehow cultivating or promoting our reasoning abilities should be part of the solution to the kinds of partisan misinformation that circulate on social media. And other new research provides evidence that even in highly political contexts, people are not as irrational as the rationalization camp contends. Recent studies have shown, for instance, that correcting partisan misperceptions does not backfire most of the time \u2014 contrary to the results of Professors Nyhan and Reifler described above \u2014 but instead leads to more accurate beliefs.\nWe are not arguing that findings such as Professor Kahan\u2019s that support the rationalization theory are unreliable. Our argument is that cases in which our reasoning goes awry \u2014 which are surprising and attention-grabbing \u2014 seem to be exceptions rather than the rule. Reason is not always, or even typically, held captive by our partisan biases. In many and perhaps most cases, it seems, reason does promote the formation of accurate beliefs.\nThis is not just an academic debate; it has real implications for public policy. Our research suggests that the solution to politically charged misinformation should involve devoting resources to the spread of accurate information and to training or encouraging people to think more critically. You aren\u2019t doomed to be unreasonable, even in highly politicized times. Just remember that this is also true of people you disagree with.",

Occupy Wall Street and Two Countries, One Voice emhpasized at the event that, while there is solidarity between the movements, Yo Soy 132 was not participating in the event.\nI spoke with several organizers and activists about how so much information could have been circulated, claiming Yo Soy 132 would be participating in the event, and my sources blamed miscommunication among the groups, though a report in La Jornada suggests the disagreement was actually of a political nature:\nIn light of the peaceful protest called by the Two Nations organization, the decision to not participate was made because Democratic party operatives were involved, a situation that goes against the principle of nonpartisan Mexican student collective.\nThe remark may be a reference to Two Countries One Voice leader Andres Ramirez, who began his career in Washington, DC working as a legislative aide to US Senator Harry Reid, and then worked for Nevada Governor Bob Miller in the State of Nevada Washington, DC Office. Ramirez later joined numerous political and advocacy campaigns. Most recently, he served as the Senior Vice President of the political and advocacy think-tank NDN. Currently, Andres serves as the Vice Chair of the DNC Hispanic Caucus where he is tasked with helping the DNC develop and implement its Hispanic engagement strategy.\nLike the American Occupy Wall Street movement, Mexico\u2019s Yo Soy 132 has gone international. According to the movement\u2019s activists, more than fifty groups now operate under the 132 banner in parts of North America, Europe, South America, Australia and even China.\nThe movement\u2019s growth and expansion have ensured that wherever Institutional Revolutionary Party presidential candidate Enrique Pe\u00f1a Nieto travels, he encounters another protest.\nAlso similar to Occupy, 132 is a big tent movement consisting of a wide array of grievances, including media, political and economic monopolization, indigenous and migrant rights, educational access and environmental protection, among other issues.\nLatina Lista:\nIn a July 27 manifesto, the 132 Movement defined itself as a non-partisan, autonomous, anti-neoliberal and peaceful force. The 132ers advocate for a free, scientific, humanistic, high-quality, and diverse educational system that is \u201cguaranteed by the state at all levels as a constitutional obligation.\u201d\nNow, 132 has joined forces with Occupy and dubbed itself \u201cTwo Countries, One Voice,\u201d and is targeting Mexican magnate Carlos Slim, whom Forbes recently named the world\u2019s richest man. As of March 2012, Slim and his family were worth $69 billion.\nThis evening, the coalition plans to occupy Saks Fifth Avenue where Slim has a good chunk of ownership. Protesters say the action is directed agains the \u201c1 percent of the 1 percent.\u201d\nOn the \u201cTwo Countries, One Voice\u201d website, organizers claim that Slim has built his telecommunications empire \u201con the backs of Mexico\u2019s poor\u201d and accuse Slim of overcharging Mexicans \u201cbillions and billions of dollars while his monopolistic practices have cost the Mexican economy $129 billion.\u201d\n\u201cWe will not stand for such abusive practices that exploit people just so that the richest man in the world can get richer,\u201d the group states.\n\u201cCarlos Slim is taking his model he created in Mexico that was built on the backs of the poor charging excessively high prices and providing inadequate service to countries across Latin America and Europe,\u201d said Juan Jos\u00e9 Guti\u00e9rrez, one of the leaders of Two Countries One Voice and the president of Vamos Unidos USA. \u201cWe\u2019re here today to say enough is enough. We\u2019re here today to shine a glaring light on the damage monopolies can have on a country and a people.\u201d\nAs for rampant poverty in Mexico, Slim said in an interview with Larry King in December 2010 that he is \u201cconvinced that all this poverty in Mexico and Latin America\u2026is the opportunity to grow.\u201d\nBut opponents says his policies of price gouging and overcharging have actually slowed Mexico\u2019s economic growth.\nA report from the Organization for Economic Cooperation & Development states that Mexico\u2019s phone industry, dominated by the billionaire Sims (he controls a whopping 70 percent of the market), overcharged customers $13.4 billion a year from 2005 to 2009, hurting the nation\u2019s economy. The OECD also recommended eliminating restrictions on foreign investment in telecommunication sand strengthening the powers of its phone regulators.\n\u201cSlim\u2019s practices are like a virus\u2014they continue to spread and multiply causing harm every where it goes,\u201d added Aaron Black with Occupy Wall Street. \u201cWe can\u2019t ignore him, he is aggressively growing his empire and we need to say no more.\u201d\nIn addition to support from the Occupy movement, 132 will be joined by a handful of New York politicians. New York State Assemblyman Robert Rodriguez told Reuters he hopes the protest will raise awareness of the need for changes to Mexico\u2019s regulatory system.\nSlim\u2019s business model \u201chas led to price gouging and charges many of my constituents high prices,\u201d New York State Senator Adriano Espaillat said at a press conference held by the coalition.\nSlim\u2019s spokespeople downplayed the significance of the protest, telling Reuters Two Countries One Voice is a paid movement, a claim whose roots appear to reside entirely in a statement made by Slim\u2019s son-in-law, Arturo Elias Ayub, who said in a telephone interview with Reuters that a recent anti-Slim protest at George Washington University had been made up of people who were paid $20 or $30 to turn up.\nTwo Countries One Voice leader Andres Ramirez says the allegations are false, and while the group helped with transportation and lunch costs for people who had traveled a long distance to the university protest, no one had been paid just to protest.\nFollow #occupysaks on Twitter this evening for updates from the protest.",

        "raw_content": "Tempest Williams: The Mormon Church Is a Corporation (VIDEO)\nThe Mormon Church is a corporation, says author and essayist Terry Tempest Williams, and there is reason to fear a Romney presidency....\nTerry Tempest Williams is an essayist, environmentalist, author, advocate, connection maker. She\u2019s fascinated by what divides and what connects us\u2014to one another and to the earth. Refuge, which Williams called an unnatural history of family and place, has become a literary classic alongside Rachel Carson\u2019s Silent Spring. Her latest, When Women Were Birds: Fifty-four Variations on Voice, starts with an investigation of her mother\u2019s mysterious journals and spirals into a meditation on silence, secrets and voice. What does all of this have to do with politics, rebellion and social change? Everything. Market capitalism commodifies labor and land, splitting our work from the rest of our lives, and our land from our communities. Terry Tempest Williams refuses to choose between the personal and the political, the practical and the poetic. On behalf of us all she demands the right to be whole\u2014and never more powerfully than in her new book.\nYou can see video of our entire conversation at GRITtv.org. Here\u2019s a rough transcript of our conversation:\nLF: Does that sound about right: you as connection maker?\nTTW: It\u2019s how I see the world. We are so used to fragmenting, compartmentalizing, putting things in silos and that\u2019s not how the world is. I think it is the pattern that connects that gives us the power to see the world whole.\nWhen Women Were Birds starts with the mystery of your mother\u2019s journals. She left you her journals, but they weren\u2019t what you expected.\nNo, and it\u2019s taken me twenty-five years to come to terms with that. Literally, the week before my mother died, I was rubbing her back in bed and she said, \u201cTerry I\u2019m leaving you my journals but you have to promise you won\u2019t look at them until I\u2019m gone.\u201d I gave her my word. She passed. A month later, I found myself in the family house. There they were, just where she said they\u2019d be, all beautifully bound, cloth journals. I thought, finally now, I\u2019ll know what my mother was thinking. I opened the first one. Empty. I opened the second one empty. The third, the fourth, the fifth, sixth\u2014all of my mother\u2019s journals were blank.\nWhat did you make of that, to begin?\nI think I was so stunned. I kept going through them, trying to figure out what she was trying to say to me. It was so deliberate. I think at the time I was so grief stricken by her death that I couldn\u2019t afford to think about it. I just gathered up her journals, took them home, and for years and years I wrote in them, unceremoniously.\nAll these years on, you find yourself the same age your mother was when she died, and you decide to revisit this story, but instead of weaving one narrative you give us a book of \u201c54 Variations on Voice.\u201d Why that structure?\nWhen I think about voice I think about music, and the structure of music is variations, different parts. I don\u2019t think, with a woman and her voice\u2014I know for me and my own voice\u2014it\u2019s not a continual narrative. That would not be a true thing. It\u2019s not as if you find your voice and move on. It\u2019s almost like a kaleidoscope that you keep turning and your voice takes on a different resonance. There have been many times in my life that I\u2019ve given my voice away or lost it or betrayed it. And there have been other times that I\u2019ve stood at the center of my voice, whether that\u2019s been through grief, or anger or joy. So it seemed to me that that was an honest rendering, both of my mother\u2019s journals (fifty-four different ages, fifty-four years) and the different configurations that our voice takes through time.\nIf you had a chance to stand at the center of your voice and raise one alarm, what\u2019s the one message you\u2019re bringing to us today.\nTo listen. That\u2019s ironic. It\u2019s a paradox, about a book on voice. But I think that\u2019s the most important think we can do right now is to listen\u2014to one another, to other people, to other culture and to listen to the land.\nA lot of people say, it\u2019s too much, I have to turn it all off. I can\u2019t listen; I can\u2019t take one more TV show, one more podcast, one more e-mail. Do you sympathize?\nI do. I think in many ways we\u2019re washed\u2014awash\u2014with stimulus, especially from the media, but that\u2019s not the only think to listen to. There\u2019s birdsong, there\u2019s silence, there\u2019s water, there\u2019s music. I think so often when we\u2019re listening, we\u2019re not really listening we\u2019re waiting for our chance to speak. And therefore I don\u2019t know how things change, if we\u2019re not we\u2019re not really in that true place of a reciprocal relationship whether its to each other or what we\u2019re reading, or our relations.\nWhat did you think of Occupy Wall Street which at its very heart was about spending time with one another?\nI thought it was beautiful. I loved the organic nature. I love the messiness of it. To me that is real. That is an ecological model. And yet the critics were saying, \u201cWho\u2019s in charge?\u201d We don\u2019t know how to deal with circles, spirals. We only know hierarchies and what I love about Occupy Wall Street is that it\u2019s asking us to use a different kind of model.\nI\u2019ve seen you asked, what might a different sort of power look like. Have you ever tasted, felt, had a glimpse of that different sort of power?\nI see it among women. I saw it in Rwanda. In the village, they listen, they understand struggle, they\u2019re not privileged. I see it whenever I\u2019m in a wild place. That\u2019s a very different kind of power that\u2019s predicated on humility and respect\u2026\nYou come from a traditional culture that has certain edicts\u2014you must have children, you must keep a journal. You both, you and your mother, broke those edicts, and yet you clearly value, continuity, connection, tradition. How do we take the bits we like of our traditions and and at the same time allow a celebration of impermanence into our worldview?\nI don\u2019t know. I\u2019m struggling with that. I mean I know the things I have been given within my Mormon culture\u2014and I\u2019m certainly not orthodox, and I don\u2019t practice the religion, but I do practice some of the ideals I was raised with: taking care of one another, caring about community. I\u2019m a great believer in prayer. Not praying to a white-haired, white-bearded, white male god, but being in prayer, which, again, is that act of listening. So those are tenets I respect and adhere to. They\u2019re certainly not unique to Mormonism, but they inform my spirituality\u2026\nA lot of people right now, looking at the presidential candidacy of Mitt Romney, are very afraid of what they hear about Mormonism: the Temple, the secrets, the ideas about dominion. What about those parts of Mormonism?\nI think there is reason to fear the Mormon Church. I would say the Mormon Church is a corporation. They have huge holdings and tremendous power and regardless of what candidate Mitt Romney says, I believe that [if Romney is elected president] the Mormon Church will have a say in governance. It will be subtle, it will be invisible, but it will be there.\nI think we just have to look at [Proposition 8] the proposition in California against gay marriage. That would be an example\u2026.",

        "raw_content": "Country witnessed extremes of drought in the south and record flooding in the north\nBeachgoers at Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia, on January 15, 2019. The first month of the year was Australia's hottest on record. AAP via Reuters\nAustralia sweltered through its hottest month on record in January and the summer of extremes continued with wildfires razing the drought-parched south and flooding in expanses of the tropical north.\nAustralia's Bureau of Meteorology confirmed the January record on Friday as parts of the northern hemisphere had record cold.\nAustralia's scorching start to 2019 \u2013 in which the mean temperature across the country for the first time exceeded 30\u00b0C \u2013 followed Australia's third-hottest year on record. Only 2005 and 2013 were warmer than 2018, which ended with the hottest December on record.\nHeat-stressed bats dropped dead from trees by the thousands in Victoria state and bitumen roads melted in New South Wales during heatwaves last month.\nNew South Wales officials say drought-breaking rains are needed to improve the water quality in a stretch of a major river system where hundreds of thousands of fish died in two mass deaths linked to excessive heat in January. A South Australia state government report on Thursday found that too much water had been drained from the river system for farming under a management plan that did not take into account the impact of climate change on the river's health.\nThe South Australian capital Adelaide on January 24 recorded the hottest day ever for a major Australian city \u2013 a searing 46.6\u00b0C.\nOn the same day, the South Australian town of Port Augusta, population 15,000, recorded 49.5\u00b0C \u2013 the highest maximum anywhere in Australia last month.\n\u2022 Cows washed away as record-breaking floods hit north Australia\n\u2022 Australia's blistering 46\u00b0C heatwave: air-conditioning demand knocks out power\n\u2022 Hail the size of tennis balls batters Sydney\nBureau senior climatologist Andrew Watkins described January's heat as unprecedented.\n\"We saw heatwave conditions affect large parts of the country through most of the month, with records broken for both duration and also individual daily extremes,\" Mr Watkins said in a statement.\nThe main contributor to the heat was a persistent high-pressure system over the Tasman Sea between Australia and New Zealand that blocked cold fronts from reaching southern Australia.\nRainfall was below-average for most of the country, but the monsoonal trough brought flooding rains to northern Queensland state in the past week, leading to a disaster declaration around the city of Townsville.\nQueensland's flooded Daintree River reached a 118-year high this week.\nEmergency services reported rescuing 28 people from floodwaters in the past week.\n\"The vast bulk of the population will not have experienced this type of event in their lifetime,\" State Disaster Coordinator Bob Gee said, referring to the extraordinary flooding.\nTownsville mayor Jenny Hill described the torrential rain as a \"one-in-100-year event\" that had forced authorities to release water from the city dam. The water release would worsen flooding in low-lying suburbs, but would prevent the Ross River from breaking its banks.\nIn the southern island state of Tasmania, authorities are hoping rain will douse more than 40 fires that had razed more than 187,000 hectares of forest and farmland by Friday. Dozens of houses have been destroyed by fires and flooding in recent weeks.\nMilder weather since Thursday has lowered the fire danger but it was forecast to escalate again from Sunday.\nThe Climate Council, an Australian independent organisation formed to provide authoritative climate change information to the public, said the January heat record showed the government needed to curb Australia's greenhouse gas emissions which have increased during each of the past four years.\n\"Climate change is cranking up the intensity of extreme heat, and January's record-breaking month is part of a sharp, long-term upswing in temperatures driven primarily from the burning of fossil fuels,\" the council's acting chief executive Martin Rice said in a statement.",

        "raw_content": "Roy Keane: Manchester United and Ireland star left his mark on the game, and quite a few shins\nToday's Maverick Monday features Roy Keane, who managed to complete an impressive collection of medals despite an explosive temper and a fearsome ability to hold a grudge\n\u201cHAPPINESS is not being afraid.\u201d\nSo said Roy Keane, the Manchester United and Republic of Ireland legend who left his mark on the game (and quite a few shins) during a glittering professional career.\nRoy Keane's infamous challenge on Alf-Inge Haaland\nRoy Keane had a glittering career at Man United\nIn a little over a quarter of a century, he won seven league titles, four FA Cups and a Champions League winners\u2019 medal.\nHis approach to the game was refreshingly simple.\n\u201cBrian Clough\u2019s advice to me [at Nottingham Forest] before most games was: \u2018you get it, you pass it to another player in the red shirt\u2019.\n\"That\u2019s really all I\u2019ve tried to do at Forest and United \u2013 pass and move \u2013 and I\u2019ve made a career out of it.\" And what a career it was.\nNobody escaped his wrath\u2026\nDuring his Manchester United career, Roy Keane didn't always have a great relationship with his own fans\nIf Keane wasn\u2019t arguing the toss with other players or managers, he always had another target lined up.\nIn 2010, for example, he let rip at the atmosphere inside Old Trafford, openly criticising United\u2019s home support.\n\u201cAway from home our fans are fantastic, I'd call them the hardcore fans,\u201d he explained.\n\u201cBut at home they have a few drinks and probably the prawn sandwiches, and they don't realise what's going on out on the pitch.\n\"I don't think some of the people who come to Old Trafford can spell football, never mind understand it.\u201d\nAlways vocal, Roy Keane slammed the Man United fans for the lack of atmosphere at Old Trafford\nHe always said what he liked\u2026\nAnd liked what he said. Take the World Cup Finals in 2002...\nAs the Republic of Ireland squad readied themselves for their matches at their base in Saipan, tensions reached fever pitch.\nKeane wasn't impressed with the facilities at their camp, and slammed the lack of professionalism of the Irish management\u2019s preparations.\nIreland manager Mick McCarthy and Roy Keane never saw eye-to-eye\nFor the Republic of Ireland, Roy Keane had a checkered career\nKeane finally snapped when McCarthy quizzed his captain over an interview he\u2019d given to the Irish Times newspaper criticising the team\u2019s management.\n\u201cYou're a f****** w*****. I didn't rate you as a player, I don't rate you as a manager, and I don't rate you as a person,\u201d he raged.\n\u201cYou're a f****** w***** and you can stick your World Cup up your a***.\n\"The only reason I have any dealings with you is that somehow you are the manager of my country! You can stick it up your b*******.\u201d\nHe was sent home soon after. But they had history\u2026\nRoy Keane called Mick McCarthy a \"f****** w*****\" in an interview with The Irish Times\nAfter his outburst, Roy Keane was sent home in disgrace from the 2002 World Cup\nHe could start a fight in an empty room\u2026\nThe spat with Mick McCarthy wasn\u2019t the only feud he had. The one with Alan Shearer, for example, was a belter.\nTHE MADMAN Rene Higuita: He was Colombia\u2019s \u2018ugliest icon\u2019 famous for his scorpion kick at Wembley and being close to drug lord Pablo Escobar\nIn 2001, Newcastle were leading Manchester United 4-3 at St. James\u2019 Park when Shearer conceded a throw-in in a bid to run down the clock.\nWhen Keane took exception and threw the ball at Shearer words were exchanged.\nRoy Keane and Alan Shearer had a feud and exchanged words in a game in 2001\nAlan Shearer had to swerve a punch thrown by Roy Keane in the game between Newcastle United and Man United\nRoy Keane was sent off in Man United's 4-3 defeat at Newcastle United\nAnd then Keane threw a punch at Shearer. A red card was shown to the Irishman.\n\"He'd been given the red card, and he was waiting for me at the top of the tunnel,\u201d recalled Shearer.\n\u201cOf course, we tried to get each other and we couldn't, it was like hold me back, don't hold me back, but we couldn't get to each other, it would have been interesting.\"\nWouldn\u2019t it just?\nThen there was Peter Schmeichel\u2026\nPeter Schmeichel and Roy Keane didn't always see eye-to-eye\nRoy Keane didn't always get on with his own players either\nAnother player, another fight.\nKeane had a dust-up with his United teammate on a preseason tour of Asia in 1998.\n\u201cThere was drink involved,\u201d he later admitted.\nKeane had been unimpressed by what he saw as Schmeichel\u2019s showboating as the teams prepared to walk out and told the Dane what he though in no uncertain terms.\n\u201cI felt sometimes he was playing up to the crowd: 'Look at me!'\n\"He said: 'I've had enough of you, It's time we sorted this out.'\nAfter starting off at Nottingham Forest with Brian Clough, Roy Keane moved to Manchester United for a British record fee of \u00a33.75m\n\"So I said 'Okay' and we had a fight. It felt like 10 minutes,\" he said in his autobiography.\n\"I woke up the next morning. I kind of vaguely remembered the fight.\n\"My hand was really sore and one of my fingers was bent backwards.\n\"Anyway, Peter had grabbed me, I'd head-butted him - we'd been fighting for ages.\"\nThe following day Peter Schmeichel sat in a press conference and simply blamed his black eye on a stray elbow he had taken during training.\nAnd Fergie was none the wiser.\nBrian Clough's advice to Roy Keane at Forest was: \"You get it, you pass it to another player in the red shirt\"\nTalking of Fergie\u2026\nThough he had been United\u2019s skipper in their glory days under Alex Ferguson, Keane grew disenchanted at Old Trafford.\nHe increasingly came under fire from his manager as he spoke openly about what he perceived to be wrong at the club.\nMatters came to a head in November 2005 when having had a pop at everyone from John O\u2019Shea, Darren Fletcher and Rio Ferdinand.\n\"Just because you are paid \u00a3120,000-a-week and play well for 20 minutes against Tottenham, you think you are a superstar,\" he said.\nSir Alex Ferguson eventually grew tired of Roy Keane's outbursts and sold him to Celtic\nKeane was referring to the conditions of the team's accommodation on a preseason trip to Portugal, Fergie didn't like it and decided it was best that Keane moved on.\n\u201cI said to Ferguson, \u2018Can I play for somebody else?\u2019 And he said, \u2018Yeah you can, cos we\u2019re tearing up your contract\u2019,\u201d he recalled.\n\u201cI just thought, \u2018F****** p****\u2019 \u2013 and I stood up and went \u2018Yeah. I\u2019m off.\u2019\u201d\nHe harboured a grudge\u2026\nFour years after Alf Inge Haaland had accused Keane of feigning injury during a game between Leeds and Manchester United, the Red Devils\u2019 Irish skipper exacted brutal revenge.\nAlf-Inge Haaland was on the end of a brutal challenge from Roy Keane\nDuring the Manchester derby at Old Trafford Keane went into Haaland with a high, straight red-card challenge that seriously injured the Norwegian\u2019s right knee.\nWhen Keane released his autobiography he recalled the incident and let\u2019s just say there wasn\u2019t a great deal of remorse.\n\u201cI'd waited long enough. I f****** hit him hard. The ball was there (I think). Take that you c***.\u201d\nFor his part, Haaland at least tried to stay positive as he awaited the results of his scan.\n\u201cI\u2019ll have to see whether any of Keane\u2019s studs are still in there.\u201d He retired in 2003.\nPlaying to his own rules, Roy Keane was a maverick on the field\nHe didn\u2019t always toe the line\u2026\nIn 2000, Manchester United wrote to its members to explain that the hike in season ticket prices was partly down to Keane\u2019s new \u00a352,000 a week contract at the club.\nRoy wasn\u2019t happy. In fact, he was livid. Again.\n\u201cI\u2019m not one for holding grudges but this was a stupid mistake,\u201d said the man who waited four years to exact revenge on Alf-Inge Haaland.\nRoy Keane didn't always toe the line on the pitch\nBut make no mistake, he was loved\u2026\nWhen Keane had his testimonial at Old Trafford in May 2006 against his new club Celtic, some 69,591 turned up to say thank you.\nA record 69,591 fans turned up to Roy Keane's testimonial between Man United and Celtic\nIt remains the largest ever attendance for a testimonial game in England.\nAll the money made from the game was given to Keane\u2019s favourite charity.\nNo, not for anger management but for Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind.",

        "raw_content": "Home Hot Topics Changing your name? What you should know to protect against identity theft\nChanging your name? What you should know to protect against identity theft\nAfter the \u201cI do\u2019s\u201d are said, will you change your last name? Brides consider a host of factors when answering that question \u2013 everything from how a name change might affect a woman\u2019s sense of identity to how having the same last name can make a family feel more bonded.\nOur modern world has added a new element for brides to consider \u2013 the risk of identity theft.\nWhile there\u2019s no one right or wrong answer to the question of whether you should change your name, it\u2019s important to be aware of how the name change process can increase your risk of identity theft. Hopefully, as a single woman, you have already taken steps to protect against identity theft. These precautions will serve you well as you go through the name-changing process, which is a haven of opportunity for identity thieves. You\u2019ll be changing important documents, like your Social Security card and driver\u2019s license, and sharing personal, identifying information with a host of organizations \u2013 from credit card issuers to your bank.\nIf you choose to take your spouse\u2019s name, or to hyphenate your maiden last name with your new married last name, you\u2019ll need to make changes anywhere your maiden name appears. Many of those documents and accounts will be of interest to identity thieves, including:\n* Social Security card\n* Bank account(s)\n* Credit card(s)\n* Health insurance cards\n* Investment accounts\n* Gym club memberships\n* Vehicle registration and auto insurance\nAnd, for those who try to balance the desire to maintain their individual identity with showing solidarity for their mate by hyphenating, keep in mind that doing so puts your maiden name out there for everyone to see down the road when your own children need to use it as a security question answer.\nIf you decide to change your name, you can take steps to help prevent identity theft, including:\n* Consider using an identity theft detection, protection and resolution product like ProtectMyID. The service monitors your credit report on a daily basis to help you catch signs of identity theft quickly.\n* Do as much of the legwork in person as possible. Take your marriage certificate to your local Social Security office and complete the change form there. Don\u2019t fax or email it, even if a helpful agent agrees to accept it in this form. And never leave your marriage certificate with the agent.\n* Likewise, head into your local bank branch and fill out the necessary change paperwork in person.\n* Call credit card issuers regarding the name change after you\u2019ve received your updated Social Security card and driver\u2019s license. Some may be willing to conduct the change over the phone. Others will ask to see a copy of your marriage certificate. Be sure to find out if they can take a photocopy or if they require an original duplicate.\n* Consider asking the credit bureaus to place a fraud alert on your account for several months after you change your name. The alert will help you detect any attempts to fraudulently use your personal information.\nFinally, if you\u2019re thinking of keeping your maiden name to avoid the hassles of changing it, and as a way to deter identity theft, consider this: Keeping your maiden name may not necessarily be a cure-all for preventing identity theft. If you don\u2019t use your \u201cmarried name,\u201d an enterprising identity thief just might. Since the name the fraud would occur under is different from the one you use, you might not become aware of the theft right away.\nUltimately, when it comes to the question of whether to change your name, there\u2019s no one right or wrong answer that suits everyone. However, the need to take steps to protect your identity is universal \u2013 regardless of what name you decide to use.\nPrevious articlePaying for higher education can be a good thing, when doing taxes\nNext articleSource: Tebow can pick deal to Jets or Jaguars\nCreative approaches to combat common menopausal symptoms\nOne in five children in America go to bed hungry \u2013 learn how you...",

Translated from the Icelandic withan introduction, notes and an essay, this is the first time Eddison\u2019s version of this epic heroic saga has been published in paperback.\nThe saga of Egil, son of Grim the Bald, tells the exciting tale of a medieval warrior-poet and his many Viking adventures. Challenged by his ugly appearance and haunted by rumours that his grandfather was a werewolf, Egil devotes himself to Odin, god of kings, warriors and poets, and determines to avenge his father\u2019s exile from Norway. With action ranging across Iceland and Scandinavia down to Scotland and England, Egil\u2019s thrilling encounters include kings, sorcerers, berserkers and outlaws, as the story follows his transformation from youthful savagery to mature wisdom.\nSometimes considered the greatest of the Icelandic sagas, Egil\u2019s Saga is the 10th-century Nordic equivalent of The Iliad and The Odyssey. Eddison\u2019s acclaimed translation, published in 1930, has been long unavailable, and demonstrates the author\u2019s amazing capacity for evocative and erudite language. It reflects the swift dramatic terseness and vivid character-drawing which made the saga style in prose narrative such an enduring model for modern historical and fantasy literature, and his meticulous translation includes elaborate notes and annotations.\n\u2018Eddison is unequalled in the vigour, the vividness, and the passionate intensity of his imagining, the brooding sadness that underlies it, and the magnificence of his language \u2013 a truly strange and wonderful fantasy world.\u2019 \u2013 Ursula K. Le Guin\n\u2018A new literary species, a new rhetoric, a new climate of the imagination.\u2019 \u2013 C.S. Lewis",

        "raw_content": "Mapping the Himalayas: Michael Ward and the Pundit Legacy\nAuthor(s): Sale, Richard\nSpecifications: ltd trade ed of 234, 8vo, 2 vol, vol I pp.208, 26 color & 52 bw photos, 36 bw illus, 2 sketches, appendix, wraps; vol II contains 44 folding maps (16 color), in blue card slipcase\nCondition: both vols in blue card slipcase; new\nThis extensive work, first started by Michael Ward, is based on Ward\u2019s diaries of the 1951 Everest Reconnaissance (including previously unpublished material) and his two trips to Bhutan (1964, 1965). In 1951, Ward conducted surveys with Eric Shipton which led to his interest in cartography and, subsequently, the Pundits. He started this work shortly before his death in 2005 and, fortunately, it has now been completed by Richard Sale. This combines a history of the Pundits, with biographical information for each, with details of Ward\u2019s own experiences of surveying in the field, including his use of Pundit-style techniques in Bhutan. Special emphasis is given to reproducing the Pundit maps, one for each journey, as full-size replicas. This is the first time they have been gathered together and the first time any have been reproduced since they were first drawn 120 years ago. Also included is Ward\u2019s map of Bhutan and the 1961 Everest map drawn from the \u201851 and \u201853 explorations. The Preface is written by Ward.\nThree versions of this book have been created \u2013 Gold, Silver, and Trade; each in limited quantities. The 50 Gold edition copies include a reprint article signed by Ward. The 50 Silver edition copies do not include the signed reprint. The Trade edition is a softcover but still slipcased with all the maps. Note: The signed reprint articles we have for the Gold editions are \u2018Exploration and Mapping SE of Everest in 1954 and 1955\u2019 (Alpine Journal, 1999), \u2018Medicine in Tibet\u2019 (Journal of Wilderness Medicine, 1991), and \u2018The Exploration of the Tsangpo and its Mountains\u2019 (Alpine Journal, 2000). We also have a few matching-numbered sets of both Gold & Silver editions for those who may like one of each! This book weighs 5.25 pounds. This book was a finalist at the 2009 Banff Mountain Book Festival.\nTo see all three versions of this book, click here.",

        "raw_content": "A Better Way to Stand a Tablet\nIt\u2019s a single accessory that provides four primary solutions for portable technology:\nAlthough there are many more solutions that TORCHGRIP\u00ae can provide, these are four important solutions for portable technology today. This article addresses the tablet stand.\nIt\u2019s interesting to think, that most people only use a tablet in their lap or on a flat surface like a desk or table top. However, what if it\u2019s a necessity to stand a tablet on something other than a flat surface like the armrest of a recliner chair, the top of a cluttered workbench or work area, or even the floor of a tent when people are moving about? These are just a few simple examples that expand or broaden the use of a tablet into typical environments. In these and other environments it would be desirable to efficiently stand a tablet without it tipping over. Stability is also valued to prevent damage to the device, not to mention that it\u2019s unproductive when there\u2019s a distraction with instability.\nMost if not all tablet accessory makers fail to focus on convenience and stability when a tablet is transferred from a user\u2019s single hand to a surface standing position. I believe this is important to focus on, for the sake of learning, productivity, collaboration, or creativity anywhere. It\u2019s very important to efficiently place or stand a tablet onto any surface with the least amount of effort for the user. Simply put, it\u2019s like being a carpenter when reaching for a hammer, a mechanic who reaches for a wrench, or a waitress who reaches for a glass. If the individual had to use two hands to do something so mundane, this would greatly reduce their freedom and efficiency. The excessive movement would slow productivity and even hinder the quality of their task.\nA new kind of tool\nSo, let\u2019s begin to view a tablet as being a new kind of tool and not just a replacement for a laptop, and begin by putting together the puzzle of how a tablet can fit into a much broader spectrum of use. A tablet can now be utilized in markets, industries, and lifestyles where a laptop computer would never suffice.\nAlso, if the adoption of tablets in vertical markets like Healthcare, Transportation, Manufacturing, Service, Education, etc. were to change the face of productivity dynamically, a solution to these common obstacles must be realized. We at TecDriven believe this solution is TORCHGRIP\u00ae.",

        "raw_content": "Airline Surcharges to Soar, Leaving Passengers Sore\nJust in time to ruin your day comes a report that airlines stand to earn $22.6 billion in surcharges in 2011. That's up from $10 billion just two years ago.\nThe prediction comes from Ideaworks, an airline consultancy, and Amadeus, a tech firm that processes travel transactions. Both companies have a vested interest in airlines making more money through surcharges, so let's hope they're just being optimistic. (Or, I guess, pessimistic, depending on your point of view.)\nYou won't find the word \"surcharge\" in the six-page single-spaced press release, though. That's because no one involved in the airline industry likes that word. They prefer less irksome terms -- like \"a la carte pricing,\" \"ancillary revenue,\" and \"underhanded methods of tormenting our customers, bwa-ha-ha-haaa!\"\nThe report, \"The Amadeus Guide To Ancillary Revenue by Ideaworks,\" is a celebration of surcharges and those airlines that employ them most profitably. In fact, the report calls those airlines \"Ancillary Revenue Champs\"; they make nearly 20% of their revenue from extras like baggage fees, peak-travel-day surcharges, \"convenience fees\" to buy tickets over the phone, etc. If you're like me, you'll probably want to steer clear of the so-called Champs: Allegiant, Ryanair, Spirit, Flybe (a U.K.-based cheapie), and Singapore's Tiger Airways.\n\"The Guide describes how traditional and low-cost carriers are boldly experimenting with new a la carte initiatives,\" says the press release. Some examples: AirAsia X of Malaysia earns more than $27 per passenger in surcharges through such means as getting more than 80% of them to pre-pay baggage fees. KLM is offering \"premium\" pre-ordered a la carte meals for $16 on eight long-haul routes. You've already heard about Spirit Airlines charging to stow carry-on bags in the overhead bin? Now they have the cheek to sell \"carry-on compliant luggage\" on their website.\nI have a name for people who choose to fly with these Ancillary Revenue Champs: Ancillary Revenue Chumps.",

        "raw_content": "UK could lift Sharm flight ban if Russia reconsiders stance\nThe UK could reconsider its ban on flights to Sharm El Sheikh if Russia was to lift its restrictions, TTG has learned.\nFlights to Sharm were grounded after Russian Metrojet Flight 9268 was downed by terrorists shortly after take off in October 2015. All 224 people on board were killed.\nBritish security experts oversaw \u00a320m improvements at Sharm airport and many nations have now resumed flights to the Red Sea resort.\nThe UK and Russia though - Egypt\u2019s main source of inbound tourists before the attack - have been more cautious.\nRussia recently resumed flights to Cairo but is still yet to return to Sharm. At the time, Egypt said Russia\u2019s decision sent a \"very positive message\" to the UK government. UK tourists can still travel to Sharm if they transit via Cairo.\nHowever, TTG was this week told that if Russia did allow flights back to Sharm, it being a Russian flight that was attacked, this could force the UK government to reconsider its own ban.\nThe Egyptian State Tourist Authority (ESTA) on Tuesday (March 20) launched a new campaign to promote Hurghada in the UK, with a return to Sharm in the near future looking increasingly unlikely.\nEgypt believes Hurghada and other Red Sea resorts such as Marsa Alam and Luxor can fill the void left by Sharm and eventually replace it in the hearts and minds of UK tourists.\n\u201cOur strategy in the UK is to focus on Hurghada,\u201d said ESTA director UK and Ireland Amr El Ezabi.\n\u201cIt can replace Sharm no problem. Sharm is Egypt for many people in the UK - we will try to do this with Hurghada and Marsa Alam.\"\nUK arrivals in Egypt were up 38.1% on 2016 to 319,000 in 2017, El Ezabi revealed, and are up 39.1% (61,481) to the end of February this year.\n'No progress on Sharm return'\nWhen approached by TTG this week, Jonathan Lord MP, co-chairman of the all-party parliamentary group (APPG) on Egypt, said he and fellow co-chairman Stephen Timms MP were not aware of any progress on a UK return to Sharm since a Commons debate on the ban in December last year.\nIt is widely accepted that after the \u00a320m safety improvements at Sharm\u2019s airport, it is now considered safe by the Department for Transport (DfT) and the Foreign Office (FCO).\nHowever, responding to Lord and Timms during the December debate, then minister of state for transport John Hayes MP said the ban on UK flights to Sharm remained in place due to a \u201cwider range of security-related reasons\u201d.\nThe DfT and FCO stance remains that the UK \u201ccontinues to work closely with the Egyptian authorities on security arrangements\u201d and \u201ckeeps aviation security under constant review\u201d.\nSaid Lord: \"I\u2019m afraid I\u2019m not aware of any progress since the Department for Transport responded to my adjournment debate on Sharm in the House of Commons on December 13 last year.\n\"Lord Stone of Blackheath has continued to table questions on this in the House of Lords to ministers too.\n\"The Egypt APPG still supports strongly the resumption of flights from the UK to Sharm, as outlined in the Commons debate.\"\nDuring the December 13 debate, Mr Lord said security experts in the UK and Egypt were in agreement Sharm was now one of the world\u2019s most secure airports.\n\"In 2016, after three trips to the town, Sir Gerald Howarth, then an MP and chairman of the APPG, told UK travel companies representatives of the Department for Transport had told him that they felt that the conditions to enable flights to resume had been met,\" he told ministers.\nEgypt\u2019s \u00a320m investment included replacing outdated security equipment, employing UK aviation security firm Restrata to train 7,000 staff, run background checks on existing staff and introducing new biometric ID systems.\nThe country also spent a further \u00a326m improving security at tourist hotspots and at hotels.\nThe Foreign Office (FCO) does not explicitly advise against travel to Sharm, but does warn nationals to avoid all but essential air travel to the Red Sea resort.\nIt does, however, warn against all travel to the North Sinai region, and states there remains an increased risk of terrorism against aviation.\nOn the flights ban, the FCO adds: \"The UK government will continue working with the Egyptian authorities to enable regular flights between the UK and Sharm el Sheikh to resume.\n\"We are also liaising with travel companies so that they are able to resume flights and holidays in Sharm el Sheikh as soon as appropriate security arrangements are in place.\"",

He emphasized that we can convert our country\u2019s market size to advantage in our favor by increasing our performance on \u201cinnovation\u201d, \u201clevel of technological preparation\u201d, \u201cprivate sector development\u201d. Prof. Dr. Hasan Mandal stated that we can do this by hardly converting our R&D and innovation ecosystem to output-focused system from input-focused system. By examining industrial output quality over foreign trade data according to technology density, he has emphasized that 3.8% of total manufacturing industry exports in 2017 belongs to the high-tech product group.

We say that university-based research infrastructures will be centered in the process of technology preparation level 3 to 6. In the process of technology preparation level 6 to 9, we want to see the Industrial Innovation Networks around more companies. However, we look at the collaborations that will take place in both approaches as platforms and we want our companies to be on these platforms. In other words, we see these constructions to provide basis to produce high value added products in the focus sectors and to complement each other.\u201d Expressing that the main objective within the scope of \"industrial innovation networks\" is the successful commercialization of targeted technology-based products in the sectors, Prof. Dr. Hasan Mandal, emphasized that R & D and innovation-based cooperation networks and large-scale consortia formed by the private companies in the supply chains with other companies, end users, TGBs and universities will be supported.\n\u201cIndustry PhD Program Will Be Launched in the Near Future\u201d\nProfessor Dr. Hasan Mandal emphasized the need for qualified human resources to produce qualified information and make it possible to establish critical human resource kits in cooperation with companies aimed at qualified human resources needed in the industry. Expressing \"Without a qualified human resource, whatever we do, it is very difficult to achieve technological transformation we aim and desired levels in the value chain with grant supports and investment supports. When saying a scientist, it is not need to think academically, we will centralize the needs of our firms.\u201d Prof. Dr. Hasan Mandal, has informed TUBITAK will soon launch the Industrial PhD Program and the Universities Industry Daises.\nIn the meeting, the representatives of the companies covered by the Project-Based Incentive System in the meeting discussed the problems they encountered in the process of the existing support programs and proposed solutions and also the programs that will be needed in the near future in terms of science and technology based development of our country.\nBesides Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology Faruk \u00d6zl\u00fc and the President of T\u00dcB\u0130TAK Prof. Dr. Hasan Mandal, Deputy Undersecretary of Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology Z\u00fcbeyde \u00c7a\u011flayan, Executives of Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology, Vice Presidents of T\u00dcB\u0130TAK, the representatives of the companies covered by the Project-Based Incentive attended the meeting.\nProje Bazl\u0131 Te\u015fvikten Yararlanan Firmalar\nProje Bazl\u0131 Te\u015fvikten Yararlanan Firmalarla De\u011ferlendirme Toplant\u0131s\u0131 T\u00dcB\u0130TAK\u2019ta Yap\u0131ld\u0131",

        "raw_content": "Steve Wilkos Show Summary\nSteve Wilkos Show is 2-3 hrs long\nSteve Wilkos Show Broadcast Time\nIn the New York area, The Steve Wilkos TV Show is transmitted on channel 11, weekdays at 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM. The Steve Wilkos Show is syndicated across the domestic United States.\nThe show is also re-broadcasted in Puerto Rico and The Virgin Islands. In other TV markets, the show may be shown on other channels and at other times.\nSteve Wilkos Show Host Profile\nBorn and bred in Chicago, Steve Wilkos is a former Marine who went on to become a police officer in his hometown. When the Chicago-based Jerry Springer Show began getting increasingly violent (notably when the Ku Klux Klan appeared on the program), the show decided to hire off-duty cops for security, and Wilkos was among those hired. Steve Wilkos eventually became director of security on the Jerry Springer Show, and even became so popular with Springer audiences that he started filling in as host when Jerry was away, doing his own special \"Steve to the Rescue\" shows.\nSteve Wilkos Show Background\nThe Steve Wilkos show is much like the original Jerry Springer show, with much chair throwing, out-of-control teens, who is the baby daddy and all other forms of the low-road daytime TV format. Where Steve Wilkos differs from Jerry Springer is that when trouble was brewing on stage, Jerry got-the-hell out of there, but Steve Wilkos gets right-in-there, sorting out the trouble in a firm but gentle manner, until his patience gets tested and then he gets mean. You don't want to cross Steve Wilkos. He was Jerry's bouncer so he knows how to control out-of-control guests. He does not play around.\nThe show is a fun way to spend a morning and/or afternoon and has some high spots on the show, especially with the warm-up comedian before the show begins and after the show, where Steve will give autographs and take pictures with fans. The production and taping is a little drawn out, so may take a couple of hours to tape just one show, especially if stage guests are being difficult - either they won't come out on stage or are making other ridiculous demands. Lunch and snacks are included and the TV studio is located in Stamford, Connecticut, but is relatively easy to get to via free bus or via Metro North.\nIn 2007, Steve Wilkos finally got his own syndicated daytime talk show. The Steve Wilkos Show is in the mode of The Jerry Springer Show, often featuring guests in dysfunctional relationships, who Wilkos tries to offer helpful advice to. He also deals with violence-oriented topics, such as gangs, guns, and domestic abuse. At six foot three inches and two hundred and eighty pounds, Wilkos is a formidable figure on stage at the show and although he manages the show well, things often get out of control as they don't let their guests sit down. Steve has been head-butted, hit in the head by a metal bowl and attacked on stage all during the taping of the show.\nSteve Wilkos Show Notes\nFree Bus Ride from NYC\nThe external production company provides a free bus ride from New York City for this show. The free bus is only for the Wednesday show and leaves from East 57th street, NYC at 9 AM and returns to NYC at 5PM. For the other tape days, you have to get there by yourself, as no bus is provided, but the studio is not far from the Stamford railroad station, via cab.\nSteve Wilkos Hit In Head With Bowl:\nAlthough Steve Wilkos usually does a great job of handling his out-of-control guests, in a show in Feb 2013, Wilkos had a particularly bad group of guests on the stage for the show \"My Daughter Tried To Poison Me\". At a critical moment an argument erupted where mama-bear lost it and threw a metal bowl at Steve Wilkos's forehead. Wilkos needed 11 stitches and the show taping that day was cancelled. Assault charges were not filed against the guest. Wilkos chalked it up to occupational hazard, but the show was never aired.\nSeptember 2007: Show Premiere\nNovember 2013: 1000th episode is aired\nOctober 2010: Picked up by NBC Universal for 2013-14 season\nJune 2012: Announcement of show renewal until 2016 by NBC Universal\nJerry Springer and Carol Shook have appeared as themselves on the show as special guest stars.\nSteve Wilkos Show Ticket Information\nYou can get FREE tickets to be in the audience directly from the show. No transportation to the studio is provided.\nSteve Wilkos Show Show Schedule\nThe Steve Wilkos Show tapes Tuesdays & Wednesdays at 10AM and 2PM.\nRachelle Wilkos\nSelina Santos\nSara Cerrone\nPark Bench Group\nDNA Diagnostic Center",

        "raw_content": "The Ari community in Ethiopia lives a traditional way of life. Although some of those practices are beautiful traditions, others are painful and harmful. Healing Voice is a 10-episode drama series designed to bring healthful information about family and sexual issues as well as to initiate spiritual discussion about the gospel.\nIn January 2016, four social workers began using Healing Voice as a tool to initiate conversations. We recently received a report from the team about the impact that the tool and their work has had in the community.\nIn groups of 5-10 people, the social workers invite men and women to listen to the episodes and discuss the content. The social workers have conducted groups with 2628 individuals in varying settings such as hospitals, schools, neighborhoods, and churches.\nThe participants have responded very positively to the content, and the social workers have noted growing community openness to speaking about family and sexual health.\nHealing Voice also prompted some women to share about their experience with fistula, an injury from childbirth that can leave a woman with infection and incontinence. In some communities, women with fistula are disgraced, abandoned, and live in poverty.\nAfter listening to the program, one young woman spoke up that she had been suffering from fistula for a year and that her husband had left her and married someone else. Social workers were able to connect her with a hospital for treatment.\nOne important component of the program is inspiring listeners to become community advocates with their newfound information. Women who listened promised to share the lessons with others and to encourage each other to check in at a health clinic if they suspected that they were pregnant or ill.\nEven men who listened to the program became more vocal about health and spiritual issues. Through Healing Voice, some of these men built firm convictions to uphold the dignity of women and to teach those values to other men in the community.\nAll men who listened to the episode walked away condemning marriage through abduction, and some of them even dropped their plans to marry additional wives. Social workers noted in the report that a number of men came forward with their own personal health concerns or on behalf of their wives.\nAfter almost two years of on-the-ground work with Healing Voice, the team desires to expand the ministry to include other areas and language groups. Please pray for the team, the social workers, and the listeners of Healing Voice. Pray that God would stir hearts to change, heal their brokenness, and invite listeners to find Him. This project is currently fully funded; however, if you would like to support other initiatives like this, please visit twrwomenofhope.org/give.",

        "title": "East Van existed long before the statue did",
        "raw_content": "East Van existed long before the statue did\nWritten by Zak Vescera\nKenneth Lum's Monument to East Vancouver at night. Joseph Kennel\nEast Van is synonymous with the city\u2019s alternative art scene, the struggle of immigrant communities and the strength of a community historically burdened by poverty. Today, East Van is cooler than ever, which has also brought about its most recent challenge: rampant and shocking gentrification.\nNeighbourhoods like Grandview-Woodlands, Hastings Sunrise and the Downtown Eastside are suddenly attractive prospects for investors and real estate developers. As gentrification continues to push these neighbourhoods\u2019 traditional residents even farther east \u2013 often beyond city limits \u2013 East Van is fighting back, not just with protests, but with a renewed identity. And its flag is the East Van Cross.\nMonument for East Vancouver was erected by East Van artist Kenneth Lum and the City of Vancouver in 2010 ahead of that year\u2019s Olympic games. Lum \u2014 an honorary professor and alumnus of UBC\u2019s Master of Fine Arts program \u2014 intended the piece as a sort of tribute to the neighbourhood where he grew up; a place of solidarity as much as struggle and of success as much as tragedy.\n\u201cThe East Van graffiti pieces appeared in a very provisional sense, often with chalk or marker on a very small scale.\u201d said Lum. \u201cIt really disappeared by the time the Monument was erected. But the funny thing about collective memory is that once it went up, a lot of people said \u2018Hey, I remember that.\u2019 I didn't anticipate the response.\u201d\nLum\u2019s piece has become an icon for everything on the other side of Ontario Street \u2014 even as the cultural, social and economic disparities of East Vancouver that informed the piece are shifting. Today, you\u2019ll find Lum\u2019s design with its iconic block-lettering and neon-white outline across East Van. Often, it\u2019s a symbol of pride, but the cross has also become a powerful part of East Van\u2019s brand, featured on everything from craft beer to toques. East Van Inc, a small tattoo parlour just off Commercial Drive, proclaims itself \"The Home of the East Van Cross\"; with merchandise featuring the cross on t-shirts, hoodies and, if you want it, tattooed on your skin.\n\u201cI have some friends who every so often send me an email saying \u2018Oh, here's another riff on your design.\u2019\" Lum laughs.\nThat a symbol of Vancouver\u2019s working class community should be used to sell hats might seem like a bastardization at best, but Lum is bemused by his design\u2019s appropriation.\n\u201cI\u2019m not a policeman,\u201d he said \u201cEven when it gets misappropriated for beer or whatever, I think deep down there\u2019s an edge to the symbol and its history that will always be there. That\u2019s why it has to remain kind of open.\u201d\nThe mystique around Lum\u2019s design inspires a whole host of interpretations, whether those be a simple sense of pride or even a deep nostalgia \u2013 and perhaps trauma \u2013 of East Van\u2019s troubled history.\n\u201cWhat\u2019s interesting about it is that it functions as a kind of signifier; almost like cypher in that you can imbue it with whatever interpretation you want. It remains this repository for all the negative histories as well.\u201d\nFor all, the cross is a symbol of resistance, a mark of pride for a neighbourhood that has traditionally been home to the city\u2019s working class. Many businesses and residents of \u201cthe wrong side of the tracks\u201d consider the Cross their own personal flag; it is easily visible when walking along the now-abandoned industrial strip near Clark Avenue or when riding the Skytrain to Commercial Broadway station, as if to tell passengers they are entering a whole new side of the city.\n\u201cWhat's buried within the Cross is the idea of hardship and harsh history, which is made not explicit, but it percolates somewhat restlessly,\u201d said Lum. \u201cIt\u2019s that kind of restlessness which I would say is largely below the surface.\u201d\nThe times have changed, but East Van still has its hardships. In Lum\u2019s old neighbourhood of Hastings Sunrise, home real estate prices have risen 26 per cent each year since 2010. Formerly a hub of immigrants often struggling to make ends meet, a house in Hastings Sunrise now easily fetches $1.5 million up to $3 million, well beyond the reach of most working class families.\nLum acknowledges that when Monument for East Vancouver was erected in the investment rush of the Winter Olympics, it was a symbol for many real estate agents that East Vancouver, long the wrong side of the tracks, was open for business. He notes that much of the sentiment around the symbol is a sort of \u2018cheerleading\u2019, as if East Van has suddenly just appeared, ready for the bars, coffee shops and boutiques that are so easily palatable for the city\u2019s upper classes.\n\u201cEast Van was always great,\u201d said Lum. \u201cIt was always great because there was great tragedy.\u201d\n\u201cEast Van didn\u2019t arrive,\u201d he continued. \u201cIt was always there.\u201d",

        "raw_content": "Posted on November 4, 2011 December 24, 2015 by Tammy Plotner\nHonoring Copernicus \u2013 Three New Elements Added To The Periodic Table\nToday, November 4, 2011, the General Assembly of the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) is meeting at the Institute of Physics in London, to approve the names of three new elements\u2026 one of which will honor the great Copernicus. Their names are: Element 110, darmstadtium (Ds), Element111, roentgenium (Rg) and Element 112. copernicium (Cn).\nAre these new elements? Probably not. All the new ones were discovered long ago, but groups like IUPAC elect names to be used in scientific endeavors. Not only does this include the element, but new molecules which belong to it. As a general rule, these \u201cnew elements\u201d are given names by their discoverer \u2013 which also leads to international debate. The elements can be named after a mythological concept, a mineral, a place or a country, a property or a very known scientist\u2026 even an astronomer!\nAs for element 112, this extremely radioactive synthetic element can only be created in a laboratory. Copernicium was created on February 9, 1996 by the Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Schwerionenforschung, but its original name \u2013 ununbium \u2013 didn\u2019t get changed until almost two years ago when a German team of scientists provided enough information to prove its existence. When it was time to give it a moniker, the rules were that it had to end in \u201cium\u201d and it couldn\u2019t be named for a living person. On February 19, 2010, the 537th anniversary of Copernicus\u2019 birth, IUPAC officially accepted the proposed name and symbol.\nThis \u201cname calling\u201d process comes from the Joint Working Party on the Discovery of Elements, which is a joint body of IUPAP and the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). From there it is given to the General Assembly for approval. Dr. Robert Kirby-Harris, Chief Executive at IOP and Secretary-General of IUPAP, said, \u201cThe naming of these elements has been agreed in consultation with physicists around the world and we\u2019re delighted to see them now being introduced to the Periodic Table.\u201d\nThe General Assembly consists of 60 members from different countries. These delegates are elected from national academies and physical societies around the world. The five day meeting, which started session on Monday, October 31 will end today. The meeting included presentations from leading UK physicists, and the inauguration of IUPAP\u2019s first female President, Professor Cecilia Jarlskog from the Division of Mathematical Physics at Lund University in Sweden.\nOriginal Story Source: Institute of Physics News Release.\nCategoriesPhysics Tagschemistry, Copernicum, Elements IUPAC, Period Table\n15 Replies to \u201cHonoring Copernicus \u2013 Three New Elements Added To The Periodic Table\u201d\nYo Tammy superb article!

        "title": "Recently ordained priest comments on Catholic church sexual abuse allegations - The Beacon",
        "raw_content": "Recently ordained priest comments on Catholic church sexual abuse allegations\nThis is part two of a three part series\nBy Wes Cruse | October 11, 2018 10:11pm\nRev. Tim Weed is the program director for liturgy and pastoral resident of Shipstad Hall. Weed was just ordained a priest back in April this year.\nIn the second article of a three-part series, The Beacon interviewed Rev. Tim Weed, program director for liturgy and pastoral resident of Shipstad Hall, to discuss the impact of sexual abuse allegations in the Catholic church. Weed was just ordained a priest in April this year.\nIn late August, a Pennsylvania Grand Jury Report released the names of more than 300 hundred priests. In September, a report the detailing the abuse of minors in the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend in Indiana also released the names of 18 additional priests \u201ccredibly accused.\u201d\nWeed sat down to share his thoughts about the release of the reports and provided insights on the culture of the Catholic Church.\nWeed: In some ways, it\u2019s not a new story necessarily in the Church. Unfortunately this has been news that\u2019s come out since really kind of the big news story in 2002 in Boston, and of course the Portland Archdiocese has had its revelations. So, in some ways, this is kind of a continuation of that. This is stuff that should\u2019ve come out already. There\u2019s a little bit of sadness. Obviously, deep heartache for the victims of the abuse. It\u2019s hard to imagine someone who has gone through the process of becoming a priest to actually do something like that. It\u2019s mind boggling.\u201d\nThe Beacon: How does that impact you as someone who\u2019s just entered the priesthood?\nWeed: It\u2019s a challenge. But I think that if you spoke with anybody who's entered the seminary in the last twenty years, you know what you\u2019re getting into. The Church is not perfect. And the people who are in the Church\u2019s hierarchy are not perfect. That doesn\u2019t excuse the actions, by any stretch of the imagination. But it\u2019s this sense that what the Church needs right now is good priests who are willing to live the life that they are called to.\nI mean, if we truly accept that this is a calling from God, as a vocation, then it\u2019s up to those of us who have accepted that call to live it as best as we possibly can. In some ways it\u2019s a little bit of a struggle just being ordained back in April and then having a whole new set of revelations kind of bombshell dropped. I\u2019ll admit that\u2019s a little discouraging at times.\nBut we\u2019ll get through this. And it will be hard. And it will be uncomfortable. And it will require some healing and really kind of some reckoning in the Church. But that's also what motivates me about this. I love the Church, and I believe that what the Church teaches about God and about Jesus and about life in general is true. So, if I believe that that\u2019s the truth, then I\u2019m not going to despair necessarily because of the actions of people.\nThe Beacon: What do you think the Church should do?\nWeed: I would echo what a lot of other people have said. The Church needs to come clean. The time for people thinking that cover-ups are okay is way past, and it\u2019s time for people to address that.\nWeed: Sin. Pride. It\u2019s an abuse of power in some ways. You\u2019re always dealing with that human desire to protect that which you know. Sometimes that just manifests itself in absolutely the worst possible way. It\u2019s a human instinct, but it\u2019s not necessarily a good human instinct. We need to get past that somehow.\nThe Beacon: What would you to say to UP student who came to you and was struggling with this and their faith?\nWeed: First, I would say they should be troubled. If you\u2019re not troubled by this then you need to check your priorities. But I would also say that it\u2019s important to distinguish the Church from the people in the Church. If what we say is true, that the Church is something given to us by God through Jesus, then there's a perfection and a beauty in the Church that also has to reconciled with human failings, sin and the fact that history is replete with the failures of people who are supposed to be as good and holy as bishops, cardinals and popes.\nI would also point to the fact that if the Church was purely a human endeavor, it probably would not be around today. But 2,000 years after Jesus, we\u2019re still trucking along and slogging through. I would say to someone \u2018Pray, pray for the Church and pray for bishops.\u2019 Pray especially for those have been victims, who are survivors. Pray for their healing. And don\u2019t be afraid to call out an abuse when you see it. It\u2019s something that needs to be called out when it\u2019s seen and not just hidden.\nThe Beacon: What would you like Catholic students to know as they struggle with this?\nWeed: That there is brokenness in the Church and in the world. Acknowledge that and pray for it, and pray for healing. But that also, realize that there is a lot of good in the Church. One of the great joys that I\u2019ve had being a priest is being able to work alongside many great faithful Catholics and Christians here on this campus. And remember that we are all part of the Church. The goodness that\u2019s in all of us is the goodness that in is the Church. As long as we stay committed to that, there is lots to hold up in the Church to see God\u2019s presence in it.",

        "raw_content": "Golf\u2026the team game\nAfter 40 years of playing and watching golf, I am not fazed by much of what I see. But, the recent Ryder Cup was amazing. Watching talented athletes that were programmed to be independent from childhood become so emotional about a team competition was fascinating. They may have been playing for their country, but I think just as much or more they were playing for each other. These guys play against each other intensely all year, battling every week. Here they are, pulling so hard for each other, you could feel the tension and drama through the TV. It may not have turned out the way you wanted, depending on your nationality, but the competition was something to savor and appreciate. Most all of us that play or played the game seriously were drawn to golf because we were wired to think and react very independently to a greater extent than the average person. We rely solely on ourselves: Very disciplined, very self-motivated, answering to no one but ourselves. I have found most very good golfers are comfortable being alone, and can function well when left to rely on themselves. So, you have to ask yourself, why would these independent millionaires want to win so badly as a team? They were jumping, hugging, completely exuberant, real and very genuine. Some of the European players that are so stoic on the tour turned into little kids on Christmas morning. I believe we are naturally drawn to community. No matter what you accomplish in life on your own, feeling part of a team that pulls together and wins together is a special feeling. Think about your most enjoyable rounds of golf. For a lot us, myself included, the rounds in which we had a partner and won were the most enjoyable and rewarding experiences the game could offer. I don\u2019t think the nature of the game is that natural to most of us, simply because we are born to be part of a community. There is no doubt accomplishing something completely on your own is great, but being a part of a winning team can definitely be more satisfying. One of the most enjoyable memories of my life is a great example. Many years ago I worked at and managed a facility that had a lot of high school-age female athletes working in the restaurant. We had a natural rivalry with another facility not far away. At some point, the challenge of a softball game between the two facilities became a reality. The problem was this: They had eight guys and one girl. We had one guy \u2013 me \u2013 and eight girls. You most likely guessed the ending by now. We played great and my team of eight girls and I beat the almost-all-boy team. It was an incredible day. The rush of adrenaline during the game was exhilarating. The feeling of euphoria at the end of the game beat any feeling I ever had accomplishing something on my own. I could live to be 100 years old and I will never forget that feeling. Recently, I got paired in a competition with another golf professional. It was a better-ball match. I didn\u2019t know this person well before we played, just a very recent acquaintance. The bond we created that day was remarkable. After just four hours on the course, I felt like I had known him for years. He calls me now occasionally for business reasons and we relive the round a little every time we talk. Yes, we mostly play golf for ourselves, but don\u2019t ever underestimate the value and satisfaction of being part of a team.\nPrevious Who is really to blame for slow play?\nNext Golf and the PGA tour are alive and well!",

This statue has a special coating due to which it does not need any regular polishing.\nThe spiritual exchange of divine love between Radha and Krishna is the display of the internal energy of the Lord and is very confidential and difficult to understand. Radha Krishna are collectively known as the combination of both the feminine as well as the masculine aspects of God. Krishna is often referred as svayam bhagavan and Radha is Krishna's supreme beloved. With Krishna, Radha is acknowledged as the Supreme Goddess, for it is said that she controls Krishna with Her love. It is believed that Krishna enchants the world, but Radha \"enchants even Him. Therefore She is the supreme goddess of all. It is believed that Krishna has left the circle of the rasa dance to search for Radha.\nOnce, Srimati Radharani was seated on the Jhulan and Krishna was pushing the swing very gently. Suddenly Krishna put so much force in pushing the swing that Srimati Radharani became fearful and started crying out, \"O Krishna, save Me, save Me!\" Sri Krishna climbed on the swing and She firmly embraced Him.\nOne of the most popular events in the holy town of Vrindavan, India - is the celebration of Jhulan Yatra, the Radha-Krishna swing festival. In Vrindavan among the local villagers and inhabitants this festival lasts for 13 days. In Vrindavan this is one of the biggest festivals of the year and Vrindavana is very crowded at this time, literally hundreds of thousands of people from surrounding towns and villages visit Vrindavan over this period in the auspicious sacred month of Shravana (July-Aug). Opulence or simplicity, everything is used in Vrindavan for the service of the Divine couple.\nMake: Made in brass.\nYou're reviewing:Radhe Krishna Idols in Brass",

        "raw_content": "by Mossless\nMossless in America: Young Suh\nWhere there's smoke, there's California-based photographer Young Suh, who embeds himself with firefighters in the American West to make hazy photographs of controlled wildfires set by the US Forest Service.\nMossless in America is a column featuring interviews with documentary photographers. The series is produced in partnership with Mossless magazine, an experimental photography publication run by Romke Hoogwaerts and Grace Leigh. Romke started Mossless in 2009, as a blog in which he interviewed a different photographer every two days; since 2012 the magazine has produced two print issues, each dealing with a different type of photography. Mossless was featured prominently in the landmark 2012 exhibition Millennium Magazine at the Museum of Modern Art in New York; it is supported by Printed Matter, Inc. Its third issue, a major photographic volume on American documentary photography from the last ten years, titled The United States (2003\u20132013), will be published this spring.\nWhere there's smoke, there's California-based photographer Young Suh, who embeds himself with firefighters in the American West to make hazy pictures of controlled wildfires set by the US Forest Service. In his painterly photographs, Young renders the landscape simultaneously as an engineered space and as a wildly unpredictable natural force. Smoke obscures banal scenes and pristine vistas, and figures are dwarfed by the scope of Young's framing. We talked with him about the difficulty of photographing fires in places like Yosemite National Park, the use of American inmates as labor to help control these burns, and the lasting influence of the Hudson River School of painting.\nMossless: How much time have you spent chasing wildfires with firefighters?\nYoung Suh: I started making photographs of wildfires in 2008. For the first couple of years I didn\u2019t really work with firefighters. I would be looking for information about wildfires from local newspapers and on the web and would drive to the area with very little sense of what it would be like. My trips would normally be three or four days at a time. I was originally drawn to vernacular landscapes near wildfires immersed in smoke without necessarily photographing an actual scene of fire. Many photographs from my Wildfires series are made at this time. Then, around 2010, I started contacting various fire departments in California, including Yosemite, in order to get access to their controlled-fire operations. Normally, controlled fires include many days of preparation prior to actual burning. Because each burn has to be cleared by a local Air Quality Control Commission and has to meet the optimal weather condition, I spent a lot of time waiting around the fire camp. One time I spent a week with firefighters for only an hour access to the burn site. In another place I could spend an entire day in the middle of a fire operation.\nWhat is the process of making the pictures like?\nI travel with a handheld medium format camera and a 4x5 camera in a backpack. I walk around the site as much as possible, because fire and smoke are constantly shifting their forms. Once I decide to make a photograph, I quickly set up my 4x5 and make one or two exposures, then move my tripod 10 to 20 feet and take another shot, until I feel like I have what I want. Sometimes I shoot with my medium-format camera if I need to respond quickly. I constantly move around. The process is more like a slow version of street photography. It is as if the landscape constantly shifts its shape.\nDoes the smoke cause any technical problems?\nIt takes time to set up a large-format camera to make an exposure. Smoke itself doesn't really cause any mechanical problems, except that all my gear smells like a barbecued chicken.\nWhat did you make of the inmates working on the controlled fire operation?\nThe photograph was taken during a controlled fire conducted in a prison land in Southern California. The land is normally used for training firefighters. When the prison inmates were brought out to help with the operation, it creates a scene where firefighters are managing two different kinds of threats to the society: one natural and the other human. We have mastered neither.\nThe smoke from these wildfires bring these landscapes out of reality and into some kind of dreamscape. Do the scenes look as picturesque in person?\nI am seduced by these scenes. Or, rather, I am seduced by the disappearance of them. The scenes are picturesque, but the disappearance of the landscape is sublime. I think the notion of the sublime implies blindness. It is an overwhelming sense of loss.\nWho are your favorite painters?\nI am thinking about two painters at the moment: Luc Tuymans and Sanford Robinson Gifford. Tuymans\u2019s paintings stir up a sense of history in me. All of a sudden history doesn\u2019t seem to have any order. There is no hierarchy in his subjects, whether coming from the past or the present. Tuymans magically puts them all to rest next to each other. Gifford made a series of studies of looking at the sunset through a gorge in the Catskill Mountains. The landscape disappears by the dazzling light from the sun, but the painting also anticipates the loss of light and the ultimate death of landscape.\nYoung Suh is an assistant professor of photography at the University of California, Davis. He studied at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.\nFollow Mossless on Twitter.\nSmoky the Bear\nHusdon River School",

The DVD includes biblical events, as well as historical facts not recorded in the Bible. Each clip ends with a powerful message from the narrator, who also briefly explains some of the Bible stories that are acted out, making confusing parts easier to understand. The clothing, setting, and characters are appropriate to the time of Jesus. While not exciting, this DVD is informative and interesting. The background music adds to the movie's appeal with traditional Jewish tunes and instruments. The Path of Jesus would be great to use for Bible studies and small groups.\nVideo Librarian, May/June 2008\nChristopher Gornold-Smith presents seven short episodes depicting incidents in the life of Jesus from birth to crucifixion, each illustrated by nicely-produced silent reenactments, \"The Christmas Story,\" \"The Temptation,\" \"Jesus and the Pharisees\"; the parables \"The Pharisee and the Tax Collector,\" \"The Decision,\" and \"The Absent King\"; and \"The New Covenant\" (detailing the Last Supper and the Crucifixion). Although these are all well-known episodes from Christ's life and ministry, Gornold-Smith adds helpful historical context concerning the events described. DVD extras include a photo gallery, Roman recipes, and a downloadable PDF study guide.

For that reason, on November 9th, 2013 the 3rd Adelante Young Men (AYM) Conference will take place at Pasadena City College, sponsored by Pasadena Youth Center.\nThe AYM Conference will focus on high school boys, and be presented in an informative and supportive manner, so that they will have the opportunity to take part in interactive, age-appropriate educational workshops related to issues that affect their lives now and in the future. Positive male leaders from various academic disciplines and levels, business leaders, health professionals, sports representatives, legal professionals, governmental leaders and other male representatives will conduct workshops on a variety of timely and topical issues. By acting as real-life role models, presenters will impart first-hand examples and scenarios of positive decision-making via approximately 50 minute workshops. Attendees will have the option of choosing two morning and one afternoon workshops of interest to them.\nSchools should send male students from a variety of backgrounds and interests. This full day conference is being held to address the many concerns and challenges facing young men today. It is an effort to address research which shows that this stage of developmental and academic transition is when male students are most vulnerable to making negative choices in their life, while still open to accepting advice and support from other males.\nhttp://www.pasadenayouthcenter.org\nWould you recommend Adelante Young Men?",

She is regarded as one of India's most successful and talented female actors. Kajol made her acting debut in the film Bekhudi (1992) and had her first commercial success with her second film Baazigar (1993) opposite Shahrukh Khan, with whom she would act in such popular movies as Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (1995), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001) and My Name is Khan (2010).

Albert and Paola thank the people for their support \"in connection with the death of Her Majesty Queen Paola\". The news was revealed by De Standaard and Het Nieuwsblad.\n\"Their Majesties King Albert II and Queen Paola want to thank you cordially for the words of consolation that They were happy to receive after the death of Her Majesty Queen Paola\", the message says (see below). It was sent to an estimated 150 members of the public.\nThe caption says \"Belv\u00e9d\u00e8re\" after the name of Albert's and Paola's residence in Laken. The French version of the message is correct. A spokesman for the Royal Palace is talking of a \"human mistake\". A new card will be sent with apologies.\nFabiola passed away at the age of 86 last December. She was the widow of the former King Boudewijn, Albert's brother.

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home \u203a news \u203a reviews \u203a support \u203a Reviews\nI don\u2019t often draw attention to specific reviews either in iTunes or elsewhere on the Internet but recently I found a couple that are interesting for different reasons that I thought might be interesting to post.\nFirst, from Fumi2008 in the UK App Store:\n\u201cBeen a long time user of this. Many other clients seemed to have fallen by the way side. Nice update. Most of all, thanks for keeping this application moving.\u201d\nIt\u2019s always nice to have happy users but that\u2019s not what I want to draw to your attention here. It\u2019s the fact that Yummy has been actively updated since it\u2019s initial release in 2008, with an average of just over a hundred days between major releases. Some releases have been bigger than others but they\u2019ve all, I think, had useful new features. I can\u2019t promise to keep up that schedule for ever (indeed some of the remaining feature requests are pretty hard!) but I can say that Yummy is an application that I use myself every day, so I have every incentive to keep it both working and functional.\nSecond, from frinkle in the UK App Store:\n\u201cYummy keeps interrupting my reading with dialogues about downloading. Then it either exits the page or reloads. Both annoying. Instapaper is much easier to use.\u201d\nThe \u201cdialogue about downloading\u201d is, I assume, the Memory Warning that I wrote about in February 2009. I\u2019ll be honest here. I have never like the memory warning; I didn\u2019t really want to include it. As I said:\n\u201cThis is one of those rare cases where I\u2019ve had to let some of the underlying technical details show through. It\u2019s not ideal but I thought it better that you know what\u2019s going on rather than just allow it to exit without warning.\u201c\nHowever, February 2009 was when the iPhone 3G was the latest and greatest. Since then there have been two phones (and one iPad), both of which have more memory, and I\u2019ve made optimisations and bug fixes in Yummy such that I am no longer convinced that Yummy quitting because of a lack of memory is going to happen regularly.\nTherefore I have removed the warning from the version of Yummy (2.5.1) that I have just submitted to Apple for review. I\u2019ll be monitoring the crash logs, though, just in case I\u2019m wrong.\nAs to the second point about Instapaper, well, I don\u2019t think that Yummy performs the same tasks as Instapaper. I think both apps follow the same design philosophy to a certain extent \u2014 wait for the next paragraph \u2014 but I certainly think that there\u2019s room on your iPhone for both apps.\nThe final review I want to mention is by i-5-m in the UK App Store:\n\u201cIt\u2019s not beautiful, but it is functional.\u201d\nI want to mention this because\u2026 it\u2019s true. Many people associate \u201cpolish\u201d with flash animations and custom graphics. I don\u2019t. These visuals do appear to be neat when you first launch it but they quickly get in the way. I want to put your bookmarks front and centre. I think by being functional and using Apple\u2019s standard UI components (almost) exclusively I am advancing that aim.",

        "raw_content": "How Trump is changing the face of legal immigration\nA new U.S. citizen waves an American flag while departing a naturalization ceremony on March 20 in Los Angeles. The naturalization ceremony welcomed more than 7,200 immigrants from 100-plus countries. (Mario Tama/Getty Images)\nBy Abigail Hauslohner and\nData reporter on the rapid-response investigative team\nAs the national immigration debate swirls around the effort to discourage illegal immigration by separating families at the border, the Trump administration is making inroads into another longtime priority: reducing legal immigration.\nThe number of people receiving visas to move permanently to the United States is on pace to drop 12 percent in President Trump\u2019s first two years in office, according to a Washington Post analysis of State Department data.\nAmong the most affected are the Muslim-majority countries on the president\u2019s travel ban list \u2014 Yemen, Syria, Iran, Libya and Somalia \u2014 where the number of new arrivals to the United States is heading toward an 81 percent drop by Sept. 30, the end of the second fiscal year under Trump.\nLast week, the Supreme Court upheld that ban, paving the way for an even more dramatic decline in arrivals from those countries.\nLegal immigration from all Muslim-majority countries is on track to fall by nearly a third.\n[Explore the data: How legal immigration is changing under Trump]\nThe Trump administration has argued that its immigration policies are driven by national security concerns and an effort to preserve jobs for Americans.\n\u201cThe history of immigration policy in the United States is one of ebbs and flows,\u201d said a White House official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. \u201cYet in recent years, the U.S. has [had] record immigration without any consideration of this influx\u2019s impact on American workers or wages.\u201d\nSome public officials and immigration experts have raised concerns that the administration\u2019s approach targets certain nationalities, discriminating against those from poorer and nonwhite countries.\nThe Post\u2019s analysis also found immigration declines among nationalities not targeted by Trump\u2019s travel ban, including nearly all of the countries that typically receive the largest number of immigrant visas from the United States. The number of immigrant visas granted to people from Mexico, the Dominican Republic, the Philippines, China, India, Vietnam, Haiti, Bangladesh, Jamaica, Pakistan and Afghanistan has also declined. Among the 10 countries that send the highest number of immigrants to the United States annually, only El Salvador is projected to receive more visas under Trump: an increase of 17 percent in his first two fiscal years.\nThe number of immigrant visas approved for Africans is on pace to fall 15 percent.\nMeanwhile, the flow of legal immigrants from Europe has increased slightly, though the total number of visas is still much smaller than that from Africa, Asia and Latin America.\nIt is unclear whether part of the drop in immigrant visas reflects declining interest in immigrating to the United States, because the State Department did not release visa application data, saying it doesn\u2019t publish that information.\nThe number of people apprehended trying to cross the border illegally from Mexico declined precipitously during Trump\u2019s first fiscal year. While outside experts suspect Trump\u2019s anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant rhetoric has deterred some legal immigration, too, they cautioned that visa backlogs and processing times are so extensive that even a significant drop in applicants is unlikely to put a major dent in the same year\u2019s immigrant visa issuances.\nThe shift in legal immigration is a reversal of the trend under President Barack Obama. During Obama\u2019s time in office, immigrant visas increased by 33 percent, surging to 617,752 in fiscal 2016, the highest level in decades.\nThat surge occurred almost entirely in the last two years of Obama\u2019s presidency. Despite declines since then, the Trump administration still will be providing more immigrant visas than Obama did in earlier years of his presidency.\nVisa data is recorded by fiscal year, so The Post used October 2008 through September 2016 to approximate Obama-era trends, and October 2016 through May 2018 \u2014 the most recent data available \u2014 to approximate Trump-era trends and to project through the end of his second fiscal year in September.\nDuring the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump repeatedly criticized the rate of immigration under Obama as dangerous and unchecked. He called for \u201ca total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.\u201d He has vowed to bring about \u201cextreme vetting\u201d and to keep out those who don\u2019t share \u201cour values.\u201d\nHis stance on immigration fueled his rise to the White House; 64 percent of voters who identified immigration as the most important issue facing the country voted for Trump, according to exit polls.\nThe economic effect\nTrump has said he wants additional limits on immigration in part because he believes new arrivals create undue competition for American workers.\nBut some of Trump\u2019s critics have alleged that his administration is seeking to slow the transition to a majority-minority U.S. population, citing his disparaging remarks about Muslims and his characterization earlier this year of Haiti, El Salvador and African nations as \u201cshithole countries.\u201d\nRep. Cedric L. Richmond (D-La.), chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, said earlier this year that Trump\u2019s \u201cMake America Great Again agenda is really a Make America White Again agenda.\u201d The administration denies that its immigration policies are discriminatory.\n[Trump\u2019s history of making offensive comments about nonwhite immigrants]\nTrump\u2019s economic argument against immigration comes as the unemployment rate has fallen to 3.8 percent, the lowest level in nearly two decades. Some American businesses are clamoring for workers, and the slowing of legal immigration could further strain a job market in which a record 6.6 million positions are unfilled.\nThe Post\u2019s analysis focuses solely on immigration visas that allow people abroad to move permanently to the United States with the intention of obtaining citizenship \u2014 in other words, the visas that more closely anticipate long-term demographic shifts in the American population. The analysis does not include temporary visas, such as the popular H-1B visas for skilled workers, the H-2B visas for seasonal workers or student visas.\nFederal data shows that applications for the H-1B visas have fallen for the first time in five years, according to a March report by immigration lawyers. The report cited a barrage of new and unprecedented application requirements, as well as reports of administration plans to further limit the visas.\nWith certain industries facing worker shortages, some economists argue that new limits on immigration could have unintended consequences for the nation\u2019s economy.\n\u201cIn general, the consensus of economists is that immigration on average has a strong positive effect on the American economy,\u201d said Giovanni Peri, the chair of the economics department at the University of California at Davis. \u201cThe big picture really is that this cut in the number of all immigrants \u2014 high- and low-skill \u2014 is going to have an impact by slowing the economy.\u201d\nLegal immigration is believed to outpace illegal immigration by about 3 to 1, according to statistics collected by the Pew Research Center, and scaling back legal arrivals has been a top priority of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, White House adviser Stephen Miller and some other administration officials.\nLast year, the administration backed a failed Senate bill that analysts said would have cut legal immigration by half by eliminating certain visa types. Congress last month voted down another administration-backed measure to curb legal immigration and did the same to a third immigration bill on Wednesday.\nBut the Trump administration has managed to effect significant changes in immigration without Congress, in part by relying on administrative guidance handed down to consular officials to change the way immigrant visas are considered and processed, administration officials and outside experts said. The result is a shift in the legal immigration process in line with the vision of Miller , the adviser who officials say sits at the helm of immigration policy decisions.\n\u201cMiller sees consular officers as the tip of the spear in his effort to control who is getting into the country,\u201d said one high-ranking national security official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the official is not authorized to speak to the media. \u201cHe sees it as a generational thing, like he has to retrain them.\u201d\n[Stephen Miller: Immigration agitator and White House survivor]\nUnder the previous administration, case officers at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) processed immigrant visa applications with \u201ca culture of getting to \u2018yes,\u2019 \u201d said another high-ranking administration official familiar with immigration policy deliberations.\nNow those officers, along with consular officers at the State Department, feel empowered to exercise their own discretion, take more time scrutinizing each applicant and more strictly enforce existing laws on inadmissibility, the official said.\nThe longer vetting process results in fewer approved applications per month.\n\u201cIf you\u2019re empowering people to spend more time vetting an application, and you\u2019re not having a culture of getting to \u2018yes\u2019 but having a culture of make the right decision, it\u2019s axiomatic that you will not be able to process applications for immigration benefits at the same speed,\u201d the official said.\nIn a March report, analysts at the Migration Policy Institute, a liberal think tank, noted that these bureaucratic changes have \u201cgone largely unnoticed.\u201d\n\u201cWithout need for congressional approval, the administration has initiated several small but well-calibrated actions through regulations, administrative guidelines, and immigration application processing changes,\u201d the report stated.\nAmendments to the State Department\u2019s Foreign Affairs Manual in January expanded the burden of proof for visa applicants to show that they will not become \u201ca public charge,\u201d which is grounds for denial. Immigration analysts who have reviewed leaked policy drafts expect the administration to publish new rules soon to expand further the terms of inadmissibility.\n\u201cIt\u2019s intended to have an effect on the numbers,\u201d said Doris Meissner, a former commissioner of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service and now a senior fellow at the Migration Policy Institute. \u201cIt\u2019s intended to put more rigor into the visa issuance process. But almost by definition, that\u2019s going to likely result in more denials.\u201d\n'Arbitrary questions' for visas\nThe largest decline in approvals is occurring in the family-based visas that allow U.S. citizens and legal residents to sponsor the immigration of relatives to the United States \u2014 what Trump has labeled \u201cchain migration.\u201d Special immigrant visas that are predominantly reserved for the Iraqis and Afghans who served the U.S. government in war zones also have been reduced significantly.\nMargaret Wong, an Ohio-based immigration attorney with offices across the country, said her practice has experienced an increase in family-based immigrant visa applications since Trump took office. More people are applying out of fear that the administration will soon eliminate those types of visas, she said.\nBut immigration attorneys are having less success getting the applications approved.\nApplicants are \u201cfacing arbitrary questions that are really difficult for them to answer, and then they\u2019re getting denials for things that attorneys have never seen before,\u201d said Kristie De Pe\u00f1a, director of immigration and senior counsel at the Niskanen Center, an immigrant advocacy group. \u201cWe\u2019re hearing that pretty much across the board from all the attorneys that practice with us.\u201d\nThere have been similar trends in other immigrant categories. Refugee arrivals are on track to fall by 75 percent from 2016 levels, according to federal data.\nWith just three months before the end of the fiscal year, the United States is only a third of the way to its refu\u00adgee cap for Africa and Latin America and less than half of the way to its cap for Asia. But it has surpassed the smaller cap set for European refugees, said analysts at the Niskanen Center.\nTrump has consistently emphasized his intention to transform the U.S. immigration system into one based on \u201cmerit\u201d rather than family ties, preferring those with desired skills and financial resources who also speak English.\nIn his State of the Union address, Trump said he planned to accomplish this in part by eliminating a vast subset of family-based visas, along with the diversity visa lottery, which provides about 50,000 immigrant visas to underrepresented nationalities each year.\nAsked whether any of the specific regional or country declines in immigrant visa numbers are intentional, one of the high-ranking administration officials said that the government\u2019s system for administering visas is \u201cthoroughly egalitarian.\u201d\n\u201cNo one in our government is making any judgment based upon anybody\u2019s national characteristics \u2014 there\u2019s no form of discrimination tolerated,\u201d the official said. \u201cWhat we are talking about is objectively applying the laws of the United States and making thoroughly objective national security determinations based on real-world facts, and nothing else.\u201d\nAndrew Ba Tran Andrew Ba Tran is an investigative data reporter.

        "raw_content": "Why Putin won\u2019t be mad about Trump pulling out of the INF Treaty\nPresident Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead a meeting on July 16 in Helsinki. (Brendan Smialowski/AFP/Getty Images)\nGiven Russia\u2019s interference in the 2016 election, this question has stalked Donald Trump throughout his presidency: Why hasn\u2019t he taken tougher action against Moscow, beyond the occasional sanction?\nOn Friday, members of Trump\u2019s administration pitched the withdrawal from a nuclear arms control treaty with Russia as evidence the president is willing to push back on Putin.\nSecretary of State Mike Pompeo said it put Russia on notice. \u201cWe have raised Russia\u2019s noncompliance with Russian officials, including at the highest levels of government, more than 30 times,\u201d he said. \u201cYet Russia continues to deny that its missile system is noncompliant and violates the treaty. Russia\u2019s violation puts millions of Europeans and Americans at greater risk, it aims to put the United States at a military disadvantage, and it undercuts the chances of moving our bilateral relationship in a better direction.\"\nHe added: \u201cIt\u2019s our duty to respond appropriately. When an agreement is so brazenly disregarded and our security is so openly threatened, we must respond.\u201d\nWhite House counselor Kellyanne Conway was more explicit, saying the whole thing disproved the idea that Trump is \u201csoft on Russia\u201d and Russian President Vladimir Putin.\n\"I mean, listen to those words today. Is he?\u201d Conway said. \u201cSee the action that Secretary of State Pompeo took today. \u2026 Whether you want to see it or not, the American people see it: a president who is willing to stand up for America and not stand down to Russia and Putin.\u201d\nIt\u2019s true that this is a significant action that ostensibly punishes Russia \u2014 one the Obama administration resisted, even though it also concluded that Russia was violating the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, forged at the tail end of the Cold War.\nBut that was in large part because it feared a revamped nuclear arms race, not necessarily because it was afraid of holding Russia accountable. Even if Russia was violating the treaty, the reasoning went, it was better to leave it in place as a deterrent.\nIt\u2019s also true that Putin isn\u2019t sad about its termination. In fact, he\u2019s been threatening to withdraw from the treaty for more than a decade. On Saturday, he announced Russia would suspend its participation in the treaty, following the United States' lead.\nPutin has repeatedly objected to the fact that other countries haven\u2019t joined in the treaty. In 2007, during the George W. Bush administration, he said this, according to an Associated Press report:\n\u201cWe need to convince other (countries) to assume the same level of obligation as assumed by the Russian Federation and the United States,\u201d Putin said. \u201cIf we are unable to obtain such a goal ... it will be difficult for us to keep within the framework of the treaty in a situation where other countries do develop such weapon systems, and among those are countries located in our near vicinity.\u201d\nPutin\u2019s comments were similar in 2016. In an exchange captured by a Kremlin transcript, Putin called the leaders of the Soviet Union who forged the treaty with the United States in the late 1980s \u201cnaive\u201d for its terms (emphasis added):\nQ: Does Russia see any value in this treaty, and if yes, then what exactly? Is it even worthwhile to be part of this treaty?\nPUTIN: It would be of great value to us, if other countries followed Russia and the United States. Here\u2019s what we have: the naive former Russian leadership went ahead and eliminated intermediate-range land-based missiles. The Americans eliminated their Pershing missiles, while we scrapped the SS-20 missiles. There was a tragic event associated with this when the chief designer of these systems committed suicide believing that it was a betrayal of national interests and unilateral disarmament.\nWhy unilateral? Because under that treaty we eliminated our ground complex, but the treaty did not include medium-range sea- and air-based missiles. Air- and sea-based missiles were not affected by it. The Soviet Union simply did not have them, while the United States kept them in service.\nWhat we ultimately got was a clear imbalance: the United States has kept its medium-range missiles. It does not matter whether they are based at sea, in the air, or on land; however, the Soviet Union was simply left without this type of weapons. Almost all of our neighbours make such weapons, including the countries to the east of our borders, and Middle Eastern countries as well, whereas none of the countries sharing borders with the United States, neither Canada nor Mexico, manufacture such weapons. So, for us it is a special test, but nevertheless we believe it is necessary to honour this treaty. All the more so since, as you may be aware, we now also have medium-range sea- and air-based missiles.\nThat doesn\u2019t sound like someone who will be particularly unhappy without the treaty \u2014 which he argued was stacked against his country to begin with. The Russians' flouting of the treaty contributes to the idea that this was punitive, but Russia in some ways seemed to be goading the United States to cancel it.\nThat doesn\u2019t necessarily mean it\u2019s the wrong call, mind you. Termination of such arms control deals has been a pet project of national security adviser John Bolton for years, and he\u2019s a hawk on Russia and many other issues.\nBut just because it\u2019s saying Russia did something wrong doesn\u2019t necessarily mean Russia will be chastened or won\u2019t like the outcome.",

But it could be China by 2020.\nIt is the scenario contained in China\u2019s ambitious plans to develop a far-reaching social credit system, a plan that the Communist Party hopes will build a culture of \u201csincerity\u201d and a \u201charmonious socialist society\u201d where \u201ckeeping trust is glorious.\u201d\nInternet start-up employees work on their computers in Beijing this year. Mobile device usage and e-commerce are in wide use in China, and now the Communist Party wants to compile a \u201csocial credit\u201d score based on citizens\u2019 every activity. (Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post)\nA high-level policy document released in September listed the sanctions that could be imposed on any person or company deemed to have fallen short. The overriding principle: \u201cIf trust is broken in one place, restrictions are imposed everywhere.\u201d\nA whole range of privileges would be denied, while people and companies breaking social trust would also be subject to expanded daily supervision and random inspections.\nThe ambition is to collect every scrap of information available online about China\u2019s companies and citizens in a single place \u2014 and then assign each of them a score based on their political, commercial, social and legal \u201ccredit.\u201d\nThe government hasn\u2019t announced exactly how the plan will work \u2014 for example, how scores will be compiled and different qualities weighted against one another. But the idea is that good behavior will be rewarded and bad behavior punished, with the Communist Party acting as the ultimate judge.\nThis is what China calls \u201cInternet Plus,\u201d but critics call a 21st-century police state.\nA version of Big Brother?\nHarnessing the power of big data and the ubiquity of smartphones, e-commerce and social media in a society where 700 million people live large parts of their lives online, the plan will also vacuum up court, police, banking, tax and employment records. Doctors, teachers, local governments and businesses could additionally be scored by citizens for their professionalism and probity.\n\u201cChina is moving towards a totalitarian society, where the government controls and affects individuals\u2019 private lives,\u201d said Beijing-based novelist and social commentator Murong Xuecun. \u201cThis is like Big Brother, who has all your information and can harm you in any way he wants.\u201d\nAt the heart of the social credit system is an attempt to control China\u2019s vast, anarchic and poorly regulated market economy, to punish companies selling poisoned food or phony medicine, to expose doctors taking bribes and uncover con men preying on the vulnerable.\n\u201cFraud has become ever more common in society,\u201d Lian Weiliang, vice chairman of the National Development and Reform Commission, the country\u2019s main economic planning agency, said in April. \u201cSwindlers have to pay a price.\u201d\nYet in Communist China, the plans inevitably take on an authoritarian aspect: This is not just about regulating the economy, but also about creating a new socialist utopia under the Communist Party\u2019s benevolent guidance.\n\u201cA huge part of Chinese political theater is to claim that there is an idealized future, a utopia to head towards,\u201d said Rogier Creemers, a professor of law and governance at Leiden University in the Netherlands.\n\u201cNow after half a century of Leninism, and with technological developments that allow for the vast collection and processing of information, there is much less distance between the loftiness of the party\u2019s ambition and its hypothetical capability of actually doing something,\u201d he said.\nBut the narrowing of that distance raises expectations, says Creemers, who adds that the party could be biting off more than it can chew.\nAssigning all of China\u2019s people a social credit rating that weighs up and scores every aspect of their behavior would not only be a gigantic technological challenge but also thoroughly subjective \u2014 and could be extremely unpopular.\n\u201cFrom a technological feasibility question to a political feasibility question, to actually get to a score, to roll this out across a population of 1.3 billion, that would be a huge challenge,\u201d Creemers said.\nA target for hackers\nThe Communist Party may be obsessed with control, but it is also sensitive to public opinion, and authorities were forced to backtrack after a pilot project in southern China in 2010 provoked a backlash.\nThat project, launched in Jiangsu province\u2019s Suining County in 2010, gave citizens points for good behavior, up to a maximum of 1,000. But a minor violation of traffic rules would cost someone 20 points, and running a red light, driving while drunk or paying a bribe would cost 50.\nSome of the penalties showed the party\u2019s desire to regulate its citizens\u2019 private lives \u2014 participating in anything deemed to be a cult or failing to care for elderly relatives incurred a 50-point penalty. Other penalties reflected the party\u2019s obsession with maintaining public order and crushing any challenge to its authority \u2014 causing a \u201cdisturbance\u201d that blocks party or government offices meant 50 points off; using the Internet to falsely accuse others resulted in a 100-point deduction. Winning a \u201cnational honor\u201d \u2014 such as being classified as a model citizen or worker \u2014 added 100 points to someone\u2019s score.\nOn this basis, citizens were classified into four levels: Those given an \u201cA\u201d grade qualified for government support when starting a business and preferential treatment when applying to join the party, government or army; or applying for a promotion.\nPeople with \u201cD\u201d grades were excluded from official support or employment.\nThe project provoked comparisons with the \u201cgood citizen cards\u201d introduced by Japan\u2019s occupying army in China in the 1930s. On social media, residents protested that this was \u201csociety turned upside down,\u201d and it was citizens who should be grading government officials \u201cand not the other way around.\u201d\nThe Suining government later told state media that it had revised the project, still recording social credit scores but abandoning the A-to-D classifications. Officials declined to be interviewed for this article.\nDespite the outcry in Suining, the central government seems determined to press ahead with its plans.\nPart of the reason is economic. With few people in China owning credit cards or borrowing money from banks, credit information is scarce. There is no national equivalent of the FICO score widely used in the United States to evaluate consumer credit risks.\nAt the same time, the central government aims to police the sort of corporate malfeasance that saw tens of thousands of babies hospitalized after consuming adulterated milk and infant formula in 2008, and millions of children given compromised vaccines this year.\nYet it is also an attempt to use the data to enforce a moral authority as designed by the Communist Party.\nThe Cyberspace Administration of China wants anyone demonstrating \u201cdishonest\u201d online behavior blacklisted, while a leading academic has argued that a media blacklist of \u201cirresponsible reporting\u201d would encourage greater self-discipline and morality in journalism.\nLester Ross, partner-in-charge of the Beijing office of law firm WilmerHale, says the rules are designed to stop anyone \u201cstepping out of line\u201d and could intimidate lawyers seeking to put forward an aggressive defense of their clients. He sees echoes of the Cultural Revolution, in which Mao Zedong identified \u201cfive black categories\u201d of people considered enemies of the revolution, including landlords, rich farmers and rightists, who were singled out for struggle sessions, persecution and re-education.\nUnder the social credit plan, the punishments are less severe \u2014 prohibitions on riding in \u201csoft sleeper\u201d class on trains or going first class in planes, for example, or on staying at the finer hotels, traveling abroad or sending children to the best schools \u2014 but nonetheless far-reaching.\nXuecun\u2019s criticism of the government won him millions of followers on Weibo, China\u2019s equivalent of Twitter, until the censors swung into action. He fears the new social credit plan could bring more problems for those who dare to speak out.\n\u201cMy social-media account has been canceled many times, so the government can say I am a dishonest person,\u201d he said. \u201cThen I can\u2019t go abroad and can\u2019t take the train.\u201d\nUnder government-approved pilot projects, eight private companies have set up credit databases that compile a wide range of online, financial and legal information.\nOne of the most popular is Sesame Credit, part of the giant Alibaba e-commerce company that runs the world\u2019s largest online shopping platform.\nTens of millions of users with high scores have been able to rent cars and bicycles without leaving deposits, company officials say, and can avoid long lines at hospitals by paying fees after leaving with a few taps on a smartphone.\nThe Baihe online dating site encourages users to display their Sesame Credit scores to attract potential partners; 15 percent of its users do so.\nOne woman, who works in advertising but declined to be named to protect her privacy, said she had used Baihe for more than two years. Looking for people who display good Sesame Credit scores helps her weed out scammers, she said.\n\u201cFirst I will look at his photo, then I will look at his profile,\u201d she said. \u201cHe has to use real-name authentication. But I will trust him and talk to him if he has Sesame Credit.\u201d\nBut it is far from clear that the system will be safe from scams.\nWilliam Glass, a threat intelligence analyst at cybersecurity expert FireEye, says a centralized system would be both vulnerable and immensely attractive to hackers.\n\u201cThere is a big market for this stuff, and as soon as this system sets up, there is great incentive for cybercriminals and even state-backed actors to go in, whether to steal information or even to alter it,\u201d he said. \u201cThis system will be the ground truth of who you are. But considering that all this information is stored digitally, it is certainly not immutable, and people can potentially go in and change it.\u201d\nJin Xin contributed to this report.\n[The Internet was supposed to foster democracy.

        "title": "Air Force dumped ashes of more troops\u2019 remains in Va. landfill than acknowledged - The Washington Post",
        "raw_content": "Air Force dumped ashes of more troops\u2019 remains in Va. landfill than acknowledged\nBy Craig Whitlock and\nReporter on investigative and long-range stories\n\u201cIt would require a massive effort and time to recall records and research individually,\u201d Jo Ann Rooney, the Pentagon\u2019s acting undersecretary for personnel, wrote in a Nov. 22 letter to Rep. Rush D. Holt (D-N.J.).\nHolt, who has pressed the Pentagon for answers on behalf of a constituent whose husband was killed in Iraq, accused the Air Force and Defense Department of hiding the truth.\n\u201cWhat the hell?\u201d Holt said in a phone interview. \u201cWe spent millions, tens of millions, to find any trace of soldiers killed, and they\u2019re concerned about a \u2018massive\u2019 effort to go back and pull out the files and find out how many soldiers were disrespected this way?\u201d He added: \u201cThey just don\u2019t want to ask questions or look very hard.\u201d\nSenior Air Force leaders said there was no intent to deceive. \u201cAbsolutely not,\u201d said Lt. Gen. Darrell D. Jones, the Air Force\u2019s deputy chief of staff for personnel.\nThis week, after The Post pressed for information contained in the Dover mortuary\u2019s electronic database, the Air Force produced a tally based on those records. It showed that 976 fragments from 274 military personnel were cremated, incinerated and taken to the landfill between 2004 and 2008.\nAn additional group of 1,762 unidentified remains were collected from the battlefield and disposed of in the same manner, the Air Force said. Those fragments could not undergo DNA testing because they had been badly burned or damaged in explosions. The total number of incinerated fragments dumped in the landfill exceeded 2,700.\nA separate federal investigation of the mortuary last month, prompted by whistleblower complaints, uncovered \u201cgross mismanagement\u201d and documented how body parts recovered from bomb blasts stacked up in the morgue\u2019s coolers for months or years before they were identified and disposed of.\nThe problems also transpired at a time when the mortuary was shielded from public scrutiny. News coverage of the return of fallen troops to Dover was banned by President George H.W. Bush in 1991 before the first Persian Gulf War. The ban remained until April 2009, when the Obama administration lifted it.\nThe Air Force said it first cremated the remains and then included those ashes in larger loads of mortuary medical waste that were burned in an incinerator and taken to a landfill. Incinerating medical waste is a common disposal practice but including cremated human ashes is not, according to funeral home directors, regulators and waste haulers.\nAir Force officials said they do not know when the landfill disposals began. They said their first record of it is Feb. 23, 2004. The mortuary database became operational in late 2003.\nThe Air Force said mortuary leaders decided to end the practice in May 2008 because \u201cthere was a better way to do it,\u201d Jones said. The military now cremates unclaimed and unidentified body parts and buries the ashes at sea.\nJones said the Air Force did not need to inform relatives of troops whose remains ended up in the landfill because they had signed forms stipulating that they did not wish to be notified if additional remains were identified. The forms authorized the military to make \u201cappropriate disposition\u201d of those subsequent remains.\nAsked if the landfill was a dignified final resting place, Jones said: \u201cThe way we\u2019re doing it today is much better.\u201d\nGari-Lynn Smith, the widow of an Army sergeant killed in Iraq, said she received an e-mail in July from Trevor Dean, the mortuary director, saying that incinerated remains had been taken to landfills at least since he began working at Dover in 1996. Dean is one of the officials facing discipline for his role in the reported mismanagement at the mortuary.\nSmith\u2019s husband, Sgt. 1st Class Scott R. Smith, a member of a bomb-disposal unit, was killed on July 17, 2006. In 2007, she began asking the military what happened to some of his remains that were identified after his funeral.\nAfter four years of letters, phone calls and records requests, she received a letter from the mortuary in April stating that the military cremated and incinerated those partial remains and disposed of them in the King George landfill.\n\u201cI hope this information brings some comfort to you during your time of loss,\u201d read the letter, signed by Dean.\nSmith was infuriated. \u201cThey have known that they were doing something disgusting, and they were doing everything they could to keep it from us,\u201d she said in a phone interview.\nIn May 2008, then-Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates ordered a detailed review of policies at Dover after an Army officer complained that the mortuary had cremated a fallen comrade at a nearby funeral home that also cremated pets in a separate chamber.\nThe review team ordered changes, emphasizing the need to ensure the highest levels of dignity and honor.\nThe Pentagon would not release the report, which was overseen by David Chu, who was undersecretary of defense for personnel. A copy obtained by The Post, however, shows that the landfill disposal practice was never reviewed or mentioned. Chu, now president of the Institute for Defense Analyses in Alexandria, declined to comment.\nPrivate contractors hired by the Air Force to handle the remains\u2019 incineration and disposal of the residue said they were unaware that they were transporting the ashes of dead troops. Records show that the Air Force hired the contractors to dispose of medical waste and did not specify that cremated body parts were included.\nMedTrace Inc. of North East, Md., had Air Force disposal contracts between 2004 and 2007, records show. Don Holland, a manager for the company, said his employees picked up boxes of sealed containers from the Dover mortuary.\n\u201cThey were certified as medical waste that had been properly treated \u2014 that\u2019s it,\u201d Holland said. \u201cWe don\u2019t go looking at what\u2019s in there. It\u2019s sealed.\u201d\nMedTrace took the items to an incinerator in Baltimore, according to state records in Delaware, where the mortuary is located. Holland declined to discuss the incineration and which landfill his company used.\nLisa Kardell, a spokeswoman for Waste Management, which operates the King George landfill, said the firm has no record of a contract with MedTrace for the years 2003 through 2008.\nShe said that Air Force officials have not returned calls over the past two weeks from her company\u2019s attorneys, asking which haulers would have been handling the Dover materials and the disposition of the ashes.\n\u201cObviously, we would be opposed to taking cremated remains of our servicemen and servicewomen and putting them in our landfill,\u201d Kardell said. \u201cBut it sounds like a lot of us were pulled in unknowingly to this unfortunate situation with the Air Force,\u201d she added.\n\u201cIt\u2019s a moral thing,\u201d said Jeff Jenkins, the manager of the King George landfill. \u201cSomeone killed overseas fighting for our country, I wouldn\u2019t want them buried \u2014 any part of them \u2014 in the landfill.\u201d\nRead more stories from around the world:\nDrone highlights tougher strategy on Iran\nFor Brazil\u2019s oil sector, promise and peril\nClinton encouraged protesters, Putin says\nRead more from Post\u2019s world coverage",

        "raw_content": "In today\u2019s age of rapid fire social media, posting to feed the ever growing hunger of a digitally connected audience has become second nature to celebrities and other influencers. In fact, the larger the number of followers, the greater the compulsion to constantly connect. And that\u2019s where the problems can arise.\nThe facts underlying the claim seemed innocuous enough. Hip hop celebrity Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs was delivering an inspirational speech to young students at a new charter school he founded in Harlem. Professional photographer Matthew McDermott took a picture of Combs surrounded by students; the picture eventually accompanied an online article in the New York Post. McDermott\u2019s name was featured in the credits identifying him as the photographer. A few weeks later, Combs posts the picture on his Instagram account with comments about the charter school. The result, a copyright infringement lawsuit for Combs.\nTaking issue with Combs\u2019 posting of the photo (and not including his credit), McDermott filed a lawsuit. In the lawsuit, McDermott claimed that Combs did not license the photograph from him, that Combs removed his photography credit and that the page with the photograph received over 40,000 likes. McDermott alleged that by publishing the photograph on his Instagram page, Combs infringed his copyright, Technically, McDermott\u2019s claim is accurate. Under Section 106 of the Copyright Act, the owner of a copyright has the exclusive rights to (a) reproduce the copyrighted work in copies, and (b) in the case of a picture, display the copyrighted work publicly. Combs allegedly violated both of these rights by copying the picture from the New York Post and then posting it on his Instagram page.\nMcDermott\u2019s second claim was one not regularly seen: a claim that Combs had violated Section 1202 of the Copyright, enacted pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Section 1202 provides that no one shall, without the permission of the copyright owner (1) intentionally remove or alter any copyright management information; or (2) distribute, or publicly perform works knowing that copyright management information has been removed without the permission of the copyright owner knowing or having reasonable grounds to know, that it will induce, enable, facilitate, or conceal an infringement. The term \u201ccopyright management information\u201d is defined in the section as any of the following information conveyed in connection with copies of a work: (1) the name of, and other identifying information about, the author of a work; and (2) the name of, and other identifying information about, the copyright owner of the work, including the information set forth in a notice of copyright.\nMcDermott claimed that by removing the credit that was included with the photograph as it was displayed in the New York Post, Combs violated both of the above provisions of the DMCA.\nSince McDermott had registered his copyright in the photograph, if found liable for infringement, Combs could face liability for statutory damages up to $150,000 and attorney fees; add to that another potential $25,000 in liability for the DMCA violation. According to a filing with the court, Combs and McDermott have settled the dispute. As such, we will never know whether Combs could have defeated the infringement claim with a fair use argument. Additionally, we will never know whether the court would have accepted McDermott\u2019s claim that his photo credit qualified as \u201ccopyright management information.\u201d (Certain courts read Section 1202 as applicable only to technological copyright protection methods and digital methods of conveying copyright management information.)

        "title": "Hong Kong is Not Tiananmen | Wilson Center",
        "raw_content": "Hong Kong is Not Tiananmen\nHong Kong\u2019s protests present a major problem for China\u2019s leadership in Beijing. This is not 1989, when China used its army and tanks to dispel student protests in Tiananmen Square. Both China and the world have changed. And, most importantly, Hong Kong is not Beijing.\nIn 1989, China could easily control media coverage of its actions, both within China and to the world. And while there were protests in many cities, the action in Beijing was concentrated in the giant central space of Tiananmen Square, a place served by broad boulevards where one could bring large infantry formations and even tanks to bear.\nSuch forces were easily shifted from distant areas in northern China and deployed to the capital. After a warning, Chinese authorities could turn out the lights and send forces to disperse the students in the square, who had little recourse. China suffered some international outrage and a brief spell of sanctions, but these hardly affected its booming growth.\nToday, it is far more difficult to suppress news of events in Hong Kong within mainland China, and virtually impossible to prevent images of events in Hong Kong from reaching the outside world. Suppression of these protests is thus much harder to carry off without creating outrage.\nIndeed, within Hong Kong \u2013 as in Gezi Square in Turkey and the Maidan in Kiev \u2013 the adoption of harsh crowd control tactics by authorities made matters worse, provoking far more people to join the protests than had originally participated.\nIn China in 1989, students were demonstrating in hope of creating something new via democratic concessions from the Communist Party. Yet in Hong Kong in 2014, people are demonstrating to defend rights they have already enjoyed for decades, namely the right to peaceful protest and free expression, as well to protest the withdrawal of a promise they believed China had made to allow local elections with full and free suffrage in 2017.\nAlso, today\u2019s protestors in Hong Kong have been able to learn from decades of practice and international teaching in tactics of non-violent protest, including coordination via social media and cell phones to fuel \u201cflash-mob\u201d demonstrations in different places to evade police; use of vehicles (again coordinated by social media) to form \u201cflash\u201d barricades; and how to cope with tear gas and pepper spray while maintaining peaceful civil disobedience.\nToday\u2019s Hong Kong protests are better organized, more dispersed, more skilled, and far better justified and clear on their demands than their predecessors at Tiananmen.\nAll of these factors make it almost impossible for police using ordinary crowd-control methods to disperse the protests. That would take a greater degree of military, perhaps lethal, force. Yet, the prospect of a massacre of thousands of peaceful protestors in Hong Kong by Chinese military forces is a nightmare that Chinese leaders will try to avoid.\nSuch a massacre would have a much larger impact today on China\u2019s economy should it result in sanctions affecting China\u2019s enormous imports and exports. It would also undermine China\u2019s efforts to position its role in organizations such as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) as the harmonious alternative to the United States as the hegemon of East Asia, and weaken its efforts to appeal to Taiwan.\nIn fact, even in mainland China, where hundreds of protests take place every year over environmental concerns and land seizures for property development, China\u2019s government has sought to avoid use of lethal force in dealing with angry crowds. Instead, China uses non-lethal force to contain the protests; places leaders under arrest or in detention; makes some kind of deal or concession to the crowd; and disciplines local party leaders for failure to anticipate and meet popular demands.\nThese tactics have kept protests small and contained, and allowed China\u2019s leaders to present themselves as responsible rulers, not tyrants.\nSo if massacres in Hong Kong are unacceptable, what will China\u2019s government do?\nThe mandarins in Beijing have two alternatives. One is to do nothing, and try to defuse the protest with inaction and disinterest: They may simply say they have made their decisions and the people of Hong Kong are free to express their opinion, letting students occupy the streets until the Hong Kong business community itself tires of the disruption and asks for the demonstrations to end.\nThat is risky, however, since even peaceful demonstrations may grow into verbal attacks on the Communist Party and on party leader Xi Jinping. These would be even more dangerous than current demands for the resignation of Hong Kong\u2019s leader Leung Chun-ying, and for open voting in 2017 for his successor. Moreover, as shown in Kiev, modern protests have remarkable staying power and can go on for months, including \u201cpop-up\u201d demonstrations in different locations that surprise police and create economic disruption.\nThe second alternative is more likely, and more consistent with China\u2019s approach to handling smaller protests on the mainland. That would be to make some concessions, arrest protest leaders, but also discipline local authorities. The leadership in Beijing could ask for Leung\u2019s resignation, blaming him for letting protests get out of hand.\nThey could then offer a compromise for the 2017 election, in which a committee picked by Beijing would select one or more candidates, but in which other candidates could emerge from primaries. Beijing could then use its financial muscle to back its preferred candidate, and count on the popularly-selected candidates to split the opposition vote, making it very likely that Beijing\u2019s preferred choice for Hong Kong\u2019s leadership would prevail, while still honoring the principle of open and free elections.\nThe real risk is if Xi views the Hong Kong protests as a test of his authority, and deems any concession to be weakness. If Xi takes that course, and confronts the demonstrations head-on, he risks a situation spinning out of control, in which his hand is forced and violence results.\nSuch an outcome would be terrible for Hong Kong, undermining its role as an international financial center within China boasting English-style security of law and civil rights. But it would also be terrible for China, undoing decades of efforts to present China as a beneficent, moral, Confucian authoritarian regime capable of raising its people in a peaceful and stable fashion.\nLet us hope Xi and China\u2019s leadership choose the path of mixed concessions and responses that avoid a violent clash. With so many violent fault lines already in the world, and the global economy already weak, we can ill afford another major disruption.\nThis article was originally posted in Russia Direct.",

        "raw_content": "Electric streetcars, shown here in this 1915 picture, provided public transportation to Winonans during much of the first half of the last century.\nBuses, such as this one, replaced trolleys on Winona's streets in 1938.\nWinona County Historical Society photo\nC. Gordon Holte Winona Daily News\nEditor\u2019s note: This story was originally published on Feb. 23, 1969.\nA young employe at Watkins Products, Inc., back in the 1920s, H. Glen Berry frequently would look out a window at the plant, watch the electric streetcars rumbling along the East Third Street tracks and think to himself, \u201cRunning one of those things looks like it would be a pretty good job.\u201d\nToday, as the senior bus driver for Winona Transit Co., Berry is the only Winonan actively engaged in public transportation whose career spans two eras of transit operations.\nHe\u2019s the only member of that corps of streetcar motormen who in the late 1930s left the wicker seats of the old \u201crattlers\u201d to climb behind the steering wheel of one of the new buses that were making their first appearance on Winona streets, who is still regularly engaged in transportation service.\nIn the going on 43 years since Berry walked into the office of the old Winona Railway and Light Company to apply for placement on the firm\u2019s list of extra motormen for call-up duty, he\u2019s probably carried some 4 million or more people \u2014 on streetcars and buses \u2014 to and from work in Winona, on shopping trips to school and to various entertainment activities.\nIt\u2019s almost a certainty that since public transit was introduced in Winona no one has been employed continuously in transportation longer than Berry whose career covers roughly half the total period of the city\u2019s transit service history.\nAnd, nearly a half a century after he watched the streetcars go by the Watkins plant he still feels employment in the transit service is \u201ca good job; it\u2019s interesting and the best part of it is in the number of people you come in contact with every day.\u201d\nWinona\u2019s transit system was 43 years old when Berry signed on as an extra streetcar motorman in October of 1926. The first street railway system had been established on Christmas Day in 1883 when a horse-drawn car made its inaugural run from the Winona Street Railway Company stables at East Third Street and Mankato Avenue to the Winona Wagon Works on West Fifth Street.\nThe system\u2019s facilities then included stables to accommodate 36 horses and an adjacent carhouse for 14 cars. Operations were started with eight new carriages manufactured in St. Louis and some iron scrapers devised to clear the path for the cars during the winter months. Horsecars were used here for about a decade until modernization prompted construction of a power system and trackage for an electric street railway that began service in the winter of 1892.\nWhen Berry donned his motorman\u2019s hat there were two lines in Winona. The Main Line ran from Lee Street, near the present location of Jefferson School, east on Fifth Street to Johnson, up Johnson to Third Street and east on Third Street to High Forest, south on High Forest to East Sanborn Street and then west on Sanborn to Center.\nThe Lake Line extended from West Howard and Dacota streets east to Center, north on Center to Third Street. At the Center Street terminating points, return trips were then made along the same routes.\nFor the return run the motorman simply reversed the position of the trolley by swinging it around, using a rope hanging from the trolley pole, removed his controls and fare box from one end of the car and installed them in the other and reversed the position of the passenger seat backs.\nAt one time the west line had an extension across Lake Winona at Dacota Street with a wooden bridge carrying cars across the lake to a point near Woodlawn Cemetery. During the years the trip across the lake was being made the company for a period showed free outdoor movies at the terminal across the lake as a device to stimulate patronage.\nThere usually was a lineup of youngsters waiting at the north end of the lake as the streetcar approached and if the motorman was in a good mood and there were few passengers on the car he\u2019d often provide the children with a free ride across the lake.\nThere were a series of accidents involving the young free riders and when a streetcar was struck by a train at the Dacota Street crossing, resulting in the deaths of three persons, service across the lake was discontinued.\nWhen Berry was accepted as a prospective motorman he was given four hours of training in the operation of the streetcar and for familiarization with the routes, then was signed on as an extra employee to be called in when a regular motorman was unable to report for duty.\n\u201cI think I started out at 48 cents an hour,\u201d he says, \u201cbut the pay was raised a couple of cents a year or so later.\u201d\nAt that time the fare was 6 cents for adults and 3 cents for children with tokens for adult fares available at 16 for a dollar.\nSome of the more difficult days experienced by bus drivers today are during periods of heavy winter snow and icing, just as they were during the era of the streetcars, Berry observes.\n\u201cWe had one trolley unit equipped with a big revolving brush that was operated by one man over the entire route to remove snow from the tracks after a snowstorm,\u201d he recalls. \u201cSometimes, especially in the outlying areas, the snow would blow back in drifts and then we\u2019d just have to try to punch our way through. We\u2019d back up a short distance, then go ahead, back up again and go ahead and try to break through the drifts. If we really got hung up then the only thing to do was call in for help.\u201d\nIce was a serious and more frequently encountered problem. A sand spreading device was installed on all streetcars to drop sand on the tracks when traction, on the steel rails became difficult and other devices had to be developed to cope with the icing problem.\nFor the streetcar motorman cold weather brought an extra duty \u2014 providing\u2019-heat for the passengers.\nEach streetcar had a coke-burning stove at the rear with a blower fan assembly attached to circulate the heat through the car.\n\u201cEvery morning during the winter before you started out,\u201d Berry recalls, \u201cyou had to get a fire going in the heater and then it had to be kept fired up during the rest of the day.\n\u201cSometimes you\u2019d be busy and forget the fire for a time and it would go out. Then you\u2019d really have a job on your hands when you reached the end of the line and in the couple of minutes before heading back you\u2019d have to scratch up some kindling and get that fire going again.\u201d\n\u201cI remember one time when I was put on duty all night at a time when water had collected in the streets and was freezing,\u201d Berry says. \u201cIt was my job to run the car back and forth over the entire system through the night to keep thick ice from forming. The wheels would break up the ice on the tracks before it got a chance to get really solid and that way we were able to keep the lines open for the next day\u2019s runs.\u201d\nIn addition to providing transportation for Winona residents, the streetcars were a constant source of entertainment for enterprising youths who sought out different methods of disengaging the trolley from the overhead line which provided the electric power necessary for the car\u2019s operation. Another favorite practice was for boys to crowd into the rear end of the car en masse so that their weight would lift the front wheels of the streetcar off the tracks.\nMotormen, Berry recalls, more or less resigned themselves to these stratagems but not infrequently a motorman whose patience was wearing a little thin would bring the car to an abrupt halt, leap from his seat and give chase down the street to a group of miscreants who had been trying to snap the trolley off the wire or who had been shagging rides on the rear of the car.\nHalloween, of course, was looked forward to by streetcar operators with something less than enthusiasm.\n\u201cOn Halloween,\u201d Berry remembers, \u201can off-duty man was assigned to each car to take a spot at the rear and act as a guard. There was one Halloween when I was out near the end of the line and the trolley was pulled loose. The rope hanging from the pole snapped up and twisted around the wire so I had to climb up on top of the car and try to unwind the rope.\n\u2018I was up there unwinding the rope and trying to keep from coming in contact with the power line when this bunch of kids came out and started pelting me with eggs.\u201d\nThe motormen had their moments, too, though, according Id Berry. He recalls one Halloween when a fellow motorman was driving along the street and a youth dashed out with a fire extinguisher filled with water and scored a direct hit oh the operator\u2019s face.\n\u201cThe motorman happened to live right on the streetcar line on East Sanborn Street,\u201d Berry continues, \u201cso he continued his run but when they got to his house he told the man riding guard, with him to watch the car a minute while he went into his house. He came back with a pail of water, they continued on down the line arid when they reached the spot where he\u2019d been squirted the same kid came out again with the fire extinguisher. This time, before the kid had a chance to squirt him, the motorman reached out and let him have the whole pail of water. He didn\u2019t have any more trouble with that kid that night.\u201d\nIn those years when every family didn\u2019t have one or more cars the public depended to a great extent on the transit system for transportation and Berry remembers \u201cwe really used to pack them in in those days.\u201d\nDuring the peak rush hours when people were going to and from work, extra cars were placed in operation and \u201cdouble-headers\u201d \u2014 one car following immediately behind another \u2014 were common.\n\u201cThe big rush was for the North Western Railway shops,\u201d Berry says, \u201cand when the men were going to work we\u2019d probably be carrying 80 or 90 in a car. A lot of them would get off the streetcar at West Fifth Street and then walk up the tracks to where they were working.\u201d\nIn the early days a circus, baseball game or some other community event would tax the transit system to its limit.\nOn those occasions special open trailers were attached to the streetcars and towed along behind to accommodate the surge of passengers.\nFrom time to time the trailers would jump the tracks at a twitching point and then the passengers would all climb off, lift the trailer back on the tracks and then resume the trip.\nThe streetcar era came to an end in 1938 when Mississippi Valley Public Service Company \u2014 which earlier had absorbed Winona Railway arid Light Company \u2014 replaced the electric trolleys with motor buses. The transition from trolley to bus operation, Berry says, wasn\u2019t too difficult for those motormen who owned cars.\n\u201cEach of us was given some instruction in how to operate\u201d the bus and then we drove it up and down Broadway until we had the feel of it,\u201d he explains. \u201cThere was one of the men who didn\u2019t own a car and just couldn\u2019t get the hang of it and the company let him retire.\u201d\nConstant contacts with the public for nearly 43 years have convinced Berry that, by arid large, people haven\u2019t changed too much over the past four decades.\n\u201cAs a whole the public always has been pretty good to deal with,\u201d he observes. \u201cOh, once in a while you run into a grouch but usually people are good to get along with.\n\u201cI guess maybe you\u2019d have to say that people seem to be a little more in a rush these days than they used to be; there seems to be more of a \u2018hurry-hurry\u2019 attitude now than there was.\u201d\nBerry, who lives with his wife at 465\u00bd E. King St.; is planning on retirement from the transit company in the summer of 1970.\nAfter putting in as many as 12 hours a day or more driving buses on city routes what do he and his wife do on weekends and days off? Go for a ride out of town.\nAnd plans for retirement? \u201cProbably do a little traveling.\u201d\nH. Glen Berry\nClick here to subscribe to the Winona Daily News online and in print",

        "raw_content": "Speedy, Tiny and Troublesome\nSome pocket bikes come with slick tires. View Slideshow SAN FRANCISCO \u2013 Whizzing down the street just inches from the pavement, Vincent Walstra looks like a big kid getting away with his little brother's pint-size bike. Arms and legs straddling the shiny yellow two-wheeler, Walstra knows he looks silly, but he's having fun on his new toy \u2013 a shrunken-down motorcycle commonly referred to as a \"pocket bike.\"\nWalstra's bike weighs 30 pounds, is about a foot high, maybe 2 feet long, and has a 47cc engine that lets him go up to 35 mph. That's perhaps a third of the size \u2013 and a fraction of the speed \u2013 of some standard motorcycles. Compared with a road bike like the 2004 Honda Rebel \u2013 which is closer to 5 feet in length, has a 234cc engine and weighs over 300 pounds \u2013 Walstra's pocket bike might as well be a rejected prop from the movie Honey, I Shrunk The Kids.\nPopular in European racing circles for years, pocket bikes have recently exploded on the scene in California. From Wal-Mart and Kragen Auto Parts stores to eBay and bulletin board mecca craigslist, gas-powered and electric versions of the tiny bikes are being bought, sold and ridden all over the San Francisco Bay Area.\nThough the top pocket bikes can cost up to about $3,000 and are made by Italian companies like Polini and Pasini, low-end Chinese bikes start at under $200 \u2013 affordable for many teens, like Walstra, who want a cheap feel of what it's like to ride a motorcycle.\n\"It's just a toy, just to have fun on,\" said Walstra.\nBut while the bikes might be fun, some owners aren't having a blast. Craigslist is littered with posts by those stopped from riding by local police, and riders warn others about a perceived disconnect between themselves, city law enforcement and the state's Department of Motor Vehicles regarding the street legality \u2013 or the lack thereof \u2013 of the tiny vehicles. Some riders are also unclear about the necessity of having a motorcycle license to ride pocket bikes.\nAlex Lin, 13, a pocket-bike rider from San Francisco, has been on the receiving end of this confusion. In April, Lin was stopped while riding his cousin's bike on the streets of Daly City, and said his uncle has been stopped there as well.\n\"They told me that you needed a real motorcycle license and that at first I was too young,\" Lin said. \"After that they didn't let me ride it home. They said I had to walk it home.\"\nRobert Ionko, a pocket-bike enthusiast and retailer, takes conflict regarding the legality of pocket bikes seriously. During an interview at his new San Carlos pocket-bike shop, Mini Motors, Ionko wouldn't rev up or tool around on a bike in his driveway in the midmorning sunshine. He didn't want to annoy his neighbors, he said.\nIonko sells bikes he imports from China, some of them small pocket bikes like Walstra's, some larger and heavier with more motorcycle accoutrements \u2013 turn signals, lights, speedometers and more.\nThough he opened his shop just a month ago and has done little advertising, people have been coming in and buying his bikes. \"They've been selling like hot cakes,\" he said. Ionko won't sell pocket bikes to kids under 18 \u2013 he makes them bring their parents in, who have to purchase the bike and sign a waiver form. Parents who buy from him are buying bikes for kids who have racing experience, he said.\n\"They don't just go from (a) bicycle to one of these,\" he said.\nLike others, Ionko thinks the bikes are a current fad that will eventually simmer down. Still, he said, some people will continue to race on the weekends.\nIonko tells customers the bikes aren't street-legal, and though he's heard those with lights could be, the DMV won't let riders register them. Many pocket bikes also lack the 17-digit VIN, or vehicle identification numbers, that motor vehicle manufacturers stamp on each product. Ionko and others believe this may be an obstacle to registering them.\nTerri Johnson, a manager with the state's DMV, said the VINs have nothing to do with pocket bikes' illegality on streets \u2013 it's really about the bikes' failure to meet safety standards, she said.\n\"You can't modify it to make it street-legal, so that's just the bottom line,\u201d she said. \u201cThey're not street-legal, and we're not registering them.\"\nAnd if California Highway Patrol Officer Christian Oliver's observations are any test, some pocket-bike riders aren't trying to make them safer. Oliver has seen all types of people riding pocket bikes, but one commonality, he said, was that they're often not wearing helmets.\nAnd as for riders' concerns about any miscommunication between the California Highway Patrol, local law enforcement and the DMV, \"I think we're all on the same page,\" he said.\nAgent Paul Scheff of the Palo Alto Police Department agreed. The mini bikes are popular in Palo Alto, where Walstra rides, Scheff said. He said he has run across them in and outside Palo Alto, and many parents and some kids have been asking him about the bikes and laws pertaining to them.\nScheff, who rides a motorcycle on patrol, said he tells these people that pocket bikes are illegal on public roads and public property. Those caught riding in the streets could face verbal warnings or citations, he said. The bike could even be impounded if the rider doesn't have a motorcycle license, he said.\nThe bikes can be ridden on private property if the rider has the property owner's permission, he said, and the responsibility falls on the bike owner to check on the riding rules in the area.\n\"Each city is different. It's one of those things you'd better check with the city first,\" he said.\nThe Little Monorail That Could\nCan You Turn That Down, Please?\nSegway Hits City Roadblock\nDrive over to Autopia",

        "raw_content": "America\u2019s Great Plains Lost More Habitat in 2014 than the Brazilian Amazon: WWF Report\nIn 2014 the Great Plains lost more acres of grasslands than the Brazilian Amazon lost to deforestation, according to a new report from World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Fifty three million acres of America\u2019s Great Plains have been lost since 2009, threatening important and iconic species like grasslands songbirds, the monarch butterfly, and native bumble bees.\n\u201cAmerica\u2019s Great Plains are being plowed under at an alarming rate,\u201d said Martha Kauffman, WWF\u2019s managing director of the Northern Great Plains program. \u201cCenturies old, critical prairie habitat that\u2019s home to amazing wildlife and strong ranching and tribal communities is rapidly being converted to cropland and most people don\u2019t even realize it.\u201d\nThe staggering rate of conversion also jeopardizes the ecological services the Great Plains provide, like filtering trillions of gallons of water, recharging our groundwater supplies and storing climate-changing carbon dioxide. According to the report, 3.2 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions were released into the atmosphere due to plowing of grasslands between 2009 and 2015\u2014 the equivalent of 670 million extra cars on the road.\nThe 2016 Plowprint Report is the first-of-its-kind annual analysis tracking losses of the grasslands forming the ecological foundation of America\u2019s Great Plains. In 2015 alone, 3.7 million acres of the Great Plains were converted to cropland.\nGrassland loss is also contributing to declines of pollinators like bees and monarch butterflies. In fact, the report cites that one of every four species of North American bumble bee is at risk of extinction, with some species declining as much as 87 percent in the past 15 years alone.\nGrassland birds are also disappearing as a result of dramatic habitat loss. Four key species\u2014McCown\u2019s Longspur, Chestnut-collared Longspur, Lark Bunting, and Sprague\u2019s Pipit\u2014 have declined as much as 80 percent since the 1960s.\n\u201cWith a growing population, the demands on the planet to produce food are increasing substantially. Meeting those demands will require a host of solutions like climate smart agriculture, the reduction of food waste, and improved technology. But the answer isn\u2019t and can\u2019t just be to plow up more land,\u201d added Kauffman. \u201cToday we\u2019re growing crops on the richest agricultural lands and have been for decades. A high percentage of what we\u2019re plowing up now are poor soils in landscapes that regularly experience drought. So we\u2019re losing these valuable grasslands and the unique ecological services they provide, while getting little in return.\u201d\nKauffman states that part of the solution could be more grassland friendly provisions in the 2018 Farm Bill. WWF calls for expanding conservation-smart programs like Sodsaver and improving the way we manage crop insurance. WWF is also working with ranchers and other stakeholders in the region to co-develop programs that maximize the economic value of intact grasslands.",

        "raw_content": "[#21] Novelty: in Matter, in Knowledge of Matter, and in Knowledge of Knowledge\nThe last four days I spent in Atlanta, at Georgia Tech, visiting Eric Smith, the lead author of a pathbreaking book on the Origin of Life. A couple years ago, I convinced Eric to write a book with me to extend his views to more general origins questions, from the origin of the Universe, to the origin of life, to the origin of consciousness -- or you could say, the origins of the Universe, life, and the ability to ask these questions.\n[#20] Teaching Reality: Quantum Mechanics\nLast week I wrote about teaching physical reality in a more honest way in high school, starting with the best theory we have of gravitation, general relativity. The other pillar of fundamental physics, also discovered early in the 20th century, is quantum mechanics, which is even more fun to teach without using mathematics.\n[#19] Teaching Reality: Starting with Gravity\nIn high school, students are taught 19th century physics, two centuries out of date. Mechanics and gravitation appear as it was known in the late 17th century, and electricity and magnetism as it was known in the early 19th century. This is a shame: it would be like teaching pre-Darwinian biology!\nPredictions of technological singularities are as wrong as predictions of singularities in physics, which have always been the harbingers of new physics. When any prediction leads to division by zero, we can be sure that new laws or regularities will set in. What singularities are good for is . . .\nTo point out something really new, we can use a quick metaphor or we can take our time to tell a story that is richer in details. A computer simulation can do both: pointing out a few salient characteristics of a situation as a kind of metaphor, and then letting it run to dynamically produce its own narrative.\nThis weekend I flew out to San Francisco, to meet Carl Pabo. We have only met a few times since we first met 12 years ago, but we are clearly kindred spirits. We both want to radically change the way our society deals with knowledge, and after a few decades of exploration, we each are in the process of building up an organization that aims at doing just that. The difference is . . .\nScience is based on theory and experiment. But to understand theory, we need to experience theory. Unless we fall into an experience of mathematics, we cannot know what theory means, and we cannot compare theory and experiment. In experiencing theory, I have encountered three very different levels of insight.\nThis week, exactly thirty years ago, Scientific American published a special issue on advanced computing. My computer scientist friend, Gerald Sussman, and I received the honor of being asked to write the article on Advanced Computing for Science. All of science! That was a daunting task.\nA few days ago I gave a short talk, followed by a much longer discussion, in the Consciousness Club series at YHouse. The topic was the nature of reality, with the full title \"Matter, Experience, and Reality\". Actually, I wound up talking about two more aspects of reality that we consciously partake in: what I like to call appearance and presence.\n[#9] Mind and Magnetic Monopoles: Matter, Mind and Magic\nBreakthroughs in science are often triggered by a realization that one or more of our assumptions were wrong. In the rapid growth of experimental and theoretical insights in neuroscience, which of the underlying assumptions could be candidates for revision, potentially inducing a big shift in understanding?\n[#8] Universal Biology: the Next Frontier in Science\nI gave a talk at a workshop on the topic of Universal Biology, a little over a week ago, at the Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) in Tokyo. The title of my talk was From Universal Biology to Universal Science, in which I argued that the structure of science can be understood as a generalization of a generalization of biology.\nThe International Society for Theoretical Psychology holds its main conferences every two years in a different country. This year the choice was Japan, and last week its members came together in Rikkyo University, one of the most prominent private universities in Tokyo.\nI was an enthusiastic proponent of the Open Source Movement, almost from the day that I encountered the Unix programming environment. I very quickly realized how powerful it was, to write software that is very modular, and where the modules could be shared freely among anyone on the planet.\n[#4] Suspension of Judgment: The Cornerstone of Science\nWhat is science? In how far is it different from other human activities? Several answers come to mind. Some people may insist that the use of mathematical models is crucial. Others may point to the use of experiments ...\n[#3] The Mind-World Circle: Two Aspects of Reality\nA couple weeks ago, I identified the origins of life with the first information revolution on Earth. But if life had never got beyond the state it was in for the first three billion years of its existence, it would have been a very quiet revolution indeed: there would have been nobody to notice it, and nobody to celebrate it. At that time, well before the Cambrian explosion of diversity, complex multicellular organisms had not yet appeared...\n[#2] The Mass-Force Circle: Mysteries vs. Puzzles\nIn my previous post I wrote that the relationship between matter and information is one of the great mysteries in all of science. But what counts as a mystery?",

        "title": "Naming names: A reckoning is underway in US Catholic Church - News - The Glen Rose Reporter - Glen Rose, TX",
        "raw_content": "By CLAUDIA LAUERAssociated Press\nPHILADELPHIA (AP) \u2014 Over the past four months, Roman Catholic dioceses across the U.S. have released the names of more than 1,000 priests and others accused of sexually abusing children in an unprecedented public reckoning spurred at least in part by a shocking grand jury investigation in Pennsylvania, an Associated Press review has found.\nNearly 50 dioceses and religious orders have publicly identified child-molesting priests in the wake of the Pennsylvania report issued in mid-August, and 55 more have announced plans to do the same over the next few months, the AP found. Together they account for more than half of the nation's 187 dioceses.\nThe review also found that nearly 20 local, state or federal investigations, either criminal or civil, have been launched since the release of the grand jury findings. Those investigations could lead to more names and more damning accusations, as well as fines against dioceses and court-ordered safety measures.\n\"People saw what happened in these parishes in Pennsylvania and said, 'That happened in my parish too.' They could see the immediate connection, and they are demanding the same accounting,\" said Tim Lennon, national president of the board of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, or SNAP.\nThe recently disclosed accusations date back six or seven decades in some cases, with the oldest from the 1910s in Louisiana. Most of the priests were long ago removed from ministry. An AP examination found that more than 60 percent are dead. In most cases, the statute of limitations for bringing criminal charges or suing has run out.\nNevertheless, advocates say exposing molesters nearly two decades after the scandal first erupted in Boston in 2002 is an encouraging step, in part because it gives some victims a sense of vindication after decades of official silence or denials. Also, it could increase pressure on dioceses to set up victims' compensation funds, as the church has done in Pennsylvania already. And it could result in the removal of molesters from positions outside the church that give them access to children.\n\"This is a milestone. We are getting closer and closer to what this ought to be, the true coming to terms that would have to be at a national level,\" said Joe McLean, who filed a lawsuit with other victims seeking to compel the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to release files on alleged abusers nationwide.\nThe Pennsylvania investigation, led by state Attorney General Josh Shapiro, identified nearly 300 \"predator priests\" dating back seven decades and accused church leaders of covering up for the abuses, in some cases by returning priests to duty after short stays in treatment centers or reassigning them. Advocates said the report had big impact because it was the largest to date in scope, encompassing most of the state.\nVictims' advocates and others, including some church officials, said the report was largely responsible for the urgency now being shown by the church. Many bishops cited those findings and other scandals \u2014 including the resignation over the summer of Washington Archbishop Theodore McCarrick, accused of groping an altar boy in the 1970s \u2014 in their letters to their congregations.\nThe biggest list of names has come from the Jesuits West Province, a religious order that encompasses nine Western states. It identified 111 priests. The New Orleans Archdiocese and the Diocese of Syracuse, New York, named 61 and 57 respectively. The Great Falls-Billings, Montana, Diocese disclosed 47 names, including those of a few nuns, while the Los Angeles Archdiocese reported more than 50 from the past decade or so.\nSome dioceses, like Peoria, Illinois, released only names with no information on the allegations or the church's response. Others detailed such things as parish assignments, numbers and dates of allegations \u2014 including an Omaha priest with 20 to 35 accusations against him \u2014 and attempts at treatment, restriction and punishment.\nAnd more names could be coming in places where attorneys general have launched statewide investigations such as New Jersey, New York, Nebraska, Florida and Delaware, or in cities like Houston or Cheyenne, Wyoming, where local prosecutors are looking into individual priests.\nIn his Christmas address last month, Pope Francis made an unprecedented call for priests who had abused children to turn themselves in and vowed the church will \"never again\" hide their crimes. The world's bishops will hold a summit at the Vatican next month to forge a comprehensive response to the crisis.\nThe U.S. bishops adopted new reporting procedures and other reforms after the furor in Boston but held off on any further measures recently at the direction of the Vatican. The bishops are holding a retreat outside Chicago starting Wednesday for \"prayer and reflection\" upon the scandal. Messages left by the AP seeking comment from conference officials were not returned.\nIn the 16 years between the Boston scandal and the Pennsylvania investigation, only about 30 dioceses around the country had released lists of priests they deemed credibly accused of abuse. Most of those dioceses came clean because they were forced to do so by lawsuits or bankruptcy filings. Some dioceses declined to name any deceased priests, since they could not defend themselves, and some would not identify any clergy members at all.\nNow, 13 dioceses have hired outside consultants including FBI agents and former judges to review their files, and dioceses that had previously been secretive are coordinating to release statewide lists in such places as Texas and New Jersey.\nBishop Anthony B. Taylor of the Little Rock Diocese in Arkansas disclosed the names of 12 priests in September and announced the hiring of a consultant to review diocesan files.\n\"The Pennsylvania grand jury report kind of helped us firm up our decision to move forward with what we were doing. It affected the timing rather than the decision,\" Taylor said.\nIn October, the pope accepted the resignation of Cardinal Donald Wuerl, archbishop of Washington, D.C., after he was accused in the report of mishandling some allegations of abuse against priests and others while bishop of Pittsburgh from 1988 to 2006.\nThe report is also credited with spurring an uptick in victims contacting support networks or law enforcement. Pennsylvania's clergy abuse hotline has received more than 1,400 new allegations since August, and Lennon said there has been a dramatic increase in victims reaching out to SNAP.\nWhile praising the release of names, many experts said the lists are often incomplete. Terence McKiernan, co-director of BishopAccountability.org, which has tracked abuse for more than a decade, said many dioceses have left off names of known abusers his group has published in its online database.\n\"It's not enough,\" Pennsylvania's Shapiro agreed. \"I do not believe that the church is capable of policing itself though. They need outside forces, ideally law enforcement, to hold them accountable.\"\nShapiro said he has spoken to 45 other attorneys general since his report, and 14 have publicly acknowledged some form of investigation. Other investigations have become public because of dioceses acknowledging subpoenas, reporters documenting raids or state agencies advertising victim hotlines.\nIllinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan printed a copy of the Pennsylvania report the day it came out. In mid-December, she issued a blistering preliminary report saying a review of church files showed dioceses in Illinois had withheld the names of at least 500 clergy accused of sexually abusing children.\n\"It was obvious that this type of concealment, this type of unresolved action in Pennsylvania, that we were going to find the same thing in Illinois,\" Madigan said.",

        "title": "My Day by Eleanor Roosevelt, September 30, 1939",
        "raw_content": "NEW YORK, Friday\u2014Since certain gentlemen saw fit to take me up a short time ago on a few words, which I will agree were open to varied interpretation, I must record that as usual the miracle may be an accomplished fact! I said that the President thought the old barn at Hyde Park could be remodeled for a sum far smaller than the rest of us thought adequate. Well, ingenuity has found a way whereby the barn may be transformed into a two-family dwelling, and the sum which I thought too small will amply cover this. So my husband has the laugh on me. It isn't the first time that has happened!\nI can't help, however, being much flattered that this simple diary should draw so much attention, from such important gentlemen, even on an unimportant item.\nI told you yesterday that I would give you more detail of how I spent my day. First, I went up to the Manhattan Storage house to see a most interesting collection of American Historical portraits belonging to the estate of the late Mr. Percy Rockefeller. There I was pleased to meet the members of the Washington Fine Arts Commission. Since Mr. Moore has retired, I have not had the pleasure of coming in contact with the present chairman, and the other members of the commission have always been vague, but very important, figures in the background, as far as I was concerned.\nTo find our friend, Mr. Paul Manship, is one of the vague figures gives me great confidence, for I have always looked upon this commission with much awe! The reason for this is that they can at any time step in and object to whatever changes I might want to make in the formal rooms at the White House!\nThey are much interested in this collection because there has long been a hope that somewhere in Washington there might be established a national portrait gallery. Here is the nucleus of a marvelous collection.\nI was most fascinated by the paintings of George Washington's ancestors and enjoyed all the others, many of which were very unfamiliar. I confess to finding, with rather a shock, one of George Washington himself with red hair. But I understand better why he held out at Valley Forge!\nThere is a portrait of Abraham Lincoln with a very wonderful expression, which must have been done toward the end of the Civil War because the suffering is so clearly marked. But I must stop, for there are too many of interest in this collection to enumerate them all. I can only say that I hope someday they will be in Washington to add to the store of the nation's richness.\nIn the afternoon I went to a reception given by the Women Sculptors and Painters and I wish I had had time to look at more of the work in the galleries, which appeared so interesting. I love Brenda Putnam's contributions, which won the popular prize for sculpture. I think she grows stronger and surer every year and I hope she knows how much real inspiration her work gives to some of us.\nI visited the World's Fair for several hours, but I have no space to tell you about it today. So perhaps that can wait until later.\n(Copyright, 1939, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.",

The ultra-small bacteria, thought to be fairly common, are difficult to image\u2014not just because they're small, but also because they're quite delicate and can easily die. These samples were captured by being flash frozen to -272 degrees C before being transported to the lab.\nWhile they're common, their role in the natural world is poorly understood. \"They're enigmatic. These bacteria are detected in many environments and they probably play important roles in microbial communities and ecosystems. But we don't yet fully understand what these ultra-small bacteria do,\" explains Jill Banfield, one of the researchers who acquired the images using cryogenic transmission electron microscopy.\nIt is thought, however, that this is as small as a cell can be while still accommodating enough material to sustain life. With an average volume of just 0.009 cubic microns, they're certainly pretty small; in fact, you could fit more than 150,000 of them into the same volume as a singleE-coli cell. And now, you known what they look like. [Nature, Berkeley Lab via Engadget]",

        "raw_content": "Jet Black and Blue!\nYes, they took it on the chin. They\u2019ve been hammered, mocked, criticized, and crucified. They\u2019ve been brought to their knees and kicked while they were down. It\u2019s been almost a week of relentless abuse from every aspect of our U.S. media community. Comedians have had a heyday dissecting JetBlue\u2019s \u201cValentine\u2019s Day Massacre.\u201d And you know what \u2026 they deserved every bit of it.\nBloopers, blunders, poor choices, bad decisions, no decisions. You name it \u2014 they did it. It was almost as though everyone at JetBlue demonstrated a synchronized effort to do everything wrong. If so, they succeeded beyond their wildest dreams!\nHaving been grounded myself in that same crippling storm, I can \u201cfeel the pain\u201d and frustration of those 130,000 passengers who were stranded over the past week due to the cancellation of 250 flights. In a previous article, I joined the chorus of dissent regarding this escapade that is destined to live on for years to come. However, the point of my observation was to share my shock in discovering that this nightmare happened to JetBlue.\nUntil the \u201cHeart Day\u201d disaster, this young, aggressive airline was a highly respected, well-oiled operation that was constantly hailed for their customer focus and concern, cutting-edge technology, quality of service, and low prices. The bottom line of my article was to urge our readers to be proactive in their efforts to make certain that a similar situation doesn\u2019t happen to them. If something this disastrous can happen to an industry leader such as JetBlue \u2014 an organization doing so many things right \u2014 it can happen to any company.\nIn that previous article, I noted many of the accomplishments that have led to the tremendous success of this highly respected airline \u2014 again emphasizing this chaos can strike even the best organizations at the most inopportune time. After what I have witnessed the past 24 hours, I think it\u2019s time to add to that list!\nI\u2019ve always been a firm believer in the fact that it doesn\u2019t matter what happens to you in life \u2014 it\u2019s how you react to it that counts. Well, I have witnessed with great respect and admiration a very vivid example of true leadership during the past few days. Again, let\u2019s agree \u2026 JetBlue\u2019s team, at every level, experienced an operational meltdown, which affected more than 130,000 of their loyal customers. This fact can\u2019t be argued. It happened.\nI\u2019m amazed at the fact that I have not seen the following things:\nJustification by leadership at shortcomings due to terrible weather conditions.\nDenial of responsibility due to the fact that conditions were beyond the control of JetBlue personnel.\nExcuses for a single mistake of judgment, poor decision, or lack of action.\nRefusal to deal with the many obvious consequences resulting from this experience.\nI mention these behaviors because we have come to expect the above actions from the leadership of so many organizations which have failed miserably in so many different ways and been exposed in the glaring light of publicity. Look back over the past few years and reflect on what happened with such noted organizations as Enron, Arthur Anderson, WorldCom, HealthSouth, Tyco, Imclone, Adelphia, and so many more giants that invoked justification and denial.\nThis past week I\u2019ve closely monitored the response strategy of JetBlue in light of the beating they\u2019ve suffered since their unpleasant adversity. I\u2019m not in the least bit surprised that their response has been immediate, honest, straight-forward, and reflective of the culture we\u2019ve all admired since they entered the industry seven years ago. In less than a week since the anguish occurred, JetBlue responded as follows:\nThey took full responsibility for everything that happened.\nThey publicly apologized, expressing shock, mortification, and great disappointment.\nCEO David Neeleman created a public relations offensive, which included television interviews on all networks, a conference call with journalists, and a damage-control appearance on the David Lettermen Show the night after the popular host dedicated the majority of his opening monolog to roasting JetBlue for millions of his viewers. In each of these appearances, Neeleman accepted the blame for meltdown, pointed out that the airline has definitely learned a great deal from the experience, and had no plans to replace any members of their management team. He said: \u201cThis has been a big wake-up call for JetBlue.\u201d\nThe CEO then vowed to make immediate changes to prevent a repeat of what happened and followed that with a straightforward promise to the world that it will never happen again!\nTo demonstrate their dedication to that promise, Neelemen revealed a \u201cPassenger\u2019s Bill of Rights\u201d \u2026 something Congress has promised but failed to achieve after years of empty rhetoric. JetBlue did this within a week. The document addresses a monetary voucher program covering any and all future delays. You\u2019re going to be seeing the details appear in most all magazines and newspapers in the coming weeks.\nJetBlue made their \u201cBill of Rights\u201d retroactive to cover everyone affected by the Valentine\u2019s Day misfortune. This action will cost JetBlue in excess of $30 million dollars!\nTwo very obvious thoughts emerge after witnessing the above actions:\nFirst: What more could you possibly have asked JetBlue to do after what happened?\nSecond: When was the last time you saw any organization and/or individual\nduplicate these efforts after their obvious misdeeds? Look back over the major organizations mentioned above that dominated headlines for months and even years. Did they publicly accept blame, take full responsibility, publicly apologize, offer immediate compensation to those affected, and create a strategy to avoid future recurrences? Nuf said.\nIt\u2019s time for us to respond in kind. Accept what has happened. It can\u2019t be changed at this point. Accept the very unusual admission of guilt, apology, and promise for immediate action. We must now stand back and offer JetBlue the opportunity to keep their promises. We must also hold them accountable with promises of severe consequences should they fail to keep their word. However, you might also throw some admiration and recognition their way for responding to an unfortunate fiasco in a very unique and refreshing way \u2014 like no one has done in the past. Good luck to JetBlue and their loyal staff as they embark on their journey to regain their credibility and lofty status in an industry which defies such attempts.",

        "raw_content": "Foreign Policy To Focus on Threats From Daesh, al Qaeda: Obama\nU.S President Barack Obama, who delivered his final State of the Union address early Wednesday, said that their foreign policy must be focused on the threats from Daesh and al Qaeda.\nDuring his speech, Obama said that \u201cour foreign policy must be focused on the threat from ISIL [Daesh] and al Qaeda, but it can\u2019t stop there. For even without ISIL, instability will continue for decades in many parts of the world\u200a\u2013 in the Middle East, in Afghanistan and Pakistan, in parts of Central America, Africa and Asia.\u201d\n\u201cSome of these places may become safe havens for new terrorist networks; others will fall victim to ethnic conflict, or famine, feeding the next wave of refugees. The world will look to us to help solve these problems, and our answer needs to be more than tough talk or calls to carpet bomb civilians,\u201d he said.\nThis comes while the Daesh conflict threatens to re-engage the U.S in Iraq, while the number of troops in Afghanistan since Obama\u2019s first term both sharply increased (during a policy called \u201cthe surge\u201d) and sharply decreased.\nWhile the U.S finished its combat mission in Afghanistan at the end of 2014 and Obama backtracked on his original plan to have only 1,000 troops \u2013 mainly for embassy security and training \u2013 after 2015.\nBut now about 5,500 troops will still be in the country when he leaves office in 2017.\n\u201cWe also can\u2019t try to take over and rebuild every country that falls into crisis. That\u2019s not leadership; that\u2019s a recipe for quagmire, spilling American blood and treasure that ultimately weakens us. It\u2019s the lesson of Vietnam, of Iraq\u200a\u2014\u200aand we should have learned it by now, Obama said during his speech.\n\u201cFortunately, there\u2019s a smarter approach, a patient and disciplined strategy that uses every element of our national power. It says America will always act, alone if necessary, to protect our people and our allies; but on issues of global concern, we will mobilize the world to work with us, and make sure other countries pull their own weight,\u201d he added.\nRise In Crime Irks Kabulies\nBodyguard of CEO's Advisor Wounded In Kabul Blast\nTAWDE KHABARE: Hizb-e-Islami's Remarks On Taliban Discussed\nBe the first to comment on \"Foreign Policy To Focus on Threats From Daesh, al Qaeda: Obama\"",

As difficult as it may be to believe, there is organized crime across the Coachella Valley. Rather than sensationalizing the struggles of some communities through a narrative of fear WE need to figure out our role in ensuring that ALL communities in the valley have a fair shot at being vibrant, healthy and sustainable.\nWe \u2013 police officers, elected officials, teachers, students, and community members \u2013 need to take a proactive approach to address violence and it begins with looking at our own health as a community. As a mother and an aunt to children who are going through our public school system, I strongly believe that it takes a village to raise a child. Although policing and incarceration has been the go-to solution to \"fix\" communities that face a long history of disinvestment, clearly it has not worked. We have a responsibility to foster an environment where the right choice is the easy choice.\nCurrently, there is a visible disparity in the way investment reaches our communities. We need to stand up and speak out for a Coachella Valley that will invest equitably across its population to ensure that all children\u2019s needs are attended to in our schools and dismantle the school to prison pipeline. Stand up and speak out for a Coachella Valley that will invest equitably across its population to ensure that every child can come to a home in a neighborhood with complete and safe streets, parks, healthy food options and a faucet that delivers clean drinking water. Stand up and speak out for a Coachella Valley that will invest in its strongest economic engine \u2013 the people who live, shop, and work here \u2013 and ensure that everyone has access to what I see is really a human right, the right to preventative health care.\nIt should be to nobody\u2019s surprise that when a child is not provided with the social, emotional, and economic support in their schools or community they will turn to other options, in this case maybe gangs.\nInstead of talking about gang violence as a singular problem and as if these \u201cgang members\u201d were from another planet, let\u2019s invest in upstream solutions that will improve our community\u2019s health.

        "title": "MacroMania: Blockchain: what it is, what it does, and why you probably don't need one",
        "raw_content": "Dilbert - by Scott Adams\nInterest in blockchain is at a fever pitch lately. This is in large part due to the eye-popping price dynamics of Bitcoin--the original bad-boy cryptocurrency--which everyone knows is powered by blockchain...whatever that is. But no matter. Given that even big players like Goldman Sachs are getting into the act (check out their super slick presentation here: Blockchain--The New Technology of Trust) maybe it's time to figure out what all the fuss is about. What follows is based on my slide deck which I recently presented at the Olin School of Business at a Blockchain Panel (I will link up to video as soon as it becomes available)\nThings are a little confusing out there I think in part because not enough care is taken in defining terms before assessing pros and cons. And when terms are defined, they sometimes include desired outcomes as a part of their definition. For example, blockchain is often described as consisting of (among other things) an immutable ledger. This is like defining a titanic to be an unsinkable ship.\nSo what do people mean when they bandy about the term blockchain? I recently had a chance to learn about the project from a corporate perspective as represented by Ed Corno of IBM (see IBM Blockchain), the other member of the panel I mentioned above. From Ed's slide deck we have the following definition:\nBlockchain: a shared, replicated, permissioned ledger with consensus, provenance, immutability and finality.\nWell, if this is what blockchain is, then maybe I want one too! The issue I have with this definition (apart from the fact that it confounds descriptive elements with desired outcomes) is that it glosses over what I consider to be an important defining characteristic of blockchain: the consensus mechanism. Loosely speaking, there are two ways to achieve consensus. One is reputation-based (trust) and the other is game-based (trustless).\nI'm not 100% sure, but I believe the corporate versions of blockchain are likely to stick to the standard model of reputation-based accounting. In this case, the efficiency gains of \"blockchain\" boil down to the gains associated with making databases more synchronized across trading partners, more cryptographically secure, more visible, more complete, etc. In short, there is nothing revolutionary or radical going on here -- it's just the usual advancement of the technology and methods associated with the on-going problem of database management. Labeling the endeavor blockchain is alright, I guess. It certainly makes for good marketing!\nOn the other hand, game-based blockchains--like the one that power Bitcoin--are, in my view, potentially more revolutionary. But before I explain why I think this, I want to step back a bit and describe my bird's eye view of what's happening in this space.\nA Database of Individual Action Histories\nThe type of information that concerns us here is not what one might label \"knowledge,\" say, as in the recipe for a nuclear bomb. The information in question relates more to a set of events that have happened in the past, in particular, events relating to individual actions. Consider, for example, \"David washed your car two days ago.\" This type of information is intrinsically useless in the sense that it is not usable in any productive manner. In addition to work histories like this, the same is true of customer service histories, delivery/receipt histories, credit histories, or any performance-related history. And yet, people value such information. It forms the bedrock of reputation and perhaps even of identity. As such, it is frequently used as a form of currency.\nWhy is intrinsically useless history of this form valued? A monetary theorist may tell you it's because of a lack of commitment or a lack of trust (see Evil is the Root of All Money). If people could be relied upon to make good on their promises a priori, their track records would largely be irrelevant from an economic perspective. A good reputation is a form of capital. It is valued because it persuades creditors (believers) that more reputable agencies are more likely to make good on their promises. We keep our money in a bank not because we think bankers are angels, but because we believe the long-term franchise value of banking exceeds the short-run benefit a bank would derive from appropriating our funds. (Well, that's the theory, at least. Admittedly, it doesn't work perfectly.)\nNote something important here. Because histories are just information, they can be created \"out of thin air.\" And, indeed, this is the fundamental source of the problem: people have an incentive to fabricate or counterfeit individual histories (their own and perhaps those of others) for a personal gain that comes at the expense of the community. No society can thrive, let alone survive, if its members have to worry excessively about others taking credit for their own personal contributions to the broader community. I'm writing this blog post in part (well, perhaps mainly) because I'm hoping to get credit for it.\nSince humans (like bankers) are not angels, what is wanted is an honest and immutable database of histories (defined over a set of actions that are relevant for the community in question). Its purpose is to eliminate false claims of sociable behavior (acts which are tantamount to counterfeiting currency). Imagine too eliminating the frustration of discordant records. How much time is wasted in trying to settle \"he said/she said\" claims inside and outside of law courts? The ultimate goal, of course, is to promote fair and efficient outcomes. We may not want something like this creepy Santa Claus technology, but something similar defined over a restricted domain for a given application would be nice.\nOrganizing History\nLet e(t) denote a set of events, or actions (relevant to the community in question), performed by an individual at date t = 1,2,3,... An individual history at date t is denoted\nh(t-1) = { e(t-1), e(t-2), ..., e(0) }, t = 1,2,3,...\nAggregating over individual events, we can let E(t) denote the set of individual actions at date t, and let H(t-1) denote the communal history, that is, the set of individual histories of people belonging to the community in question:\nH(t-1) = { E(t-1), E(t-2), ... , E(0) }, t = 1,2,3,...\nObserve that E(t) can be thought of as a \"block\" of information (relating to a set of actions taken by members of the community at date t). If this is so, then H(t-1) consists of time-stamped blocks of information connected in sequence to form a chain of blocks. In this sense, any database consisting of a complete history of (community-relevant) events can be thought of as a \"blockchain.\"\nNote that there are other ways of organizing history. For example, consider a cash-based economy where people are anonymous and let e(t) denote acquisitions of cash (if positive) or expenditures of cash (if negative). Then an individual's cash balances at the beginning of date t is given by h(t-1) = e(t-1) + e(t-2) + ... + e(0). This is the sense in which \"money is memory.\" Measuring a person's worth by how much money they have serves as a crude summary statistic of the net contributions they've made to society in the past (assuming they did not steal or counterfeit the money, of course). Another way to organize history is to specify h(t-1) = { e(t-1) }. This is the \"what have you done for me lately?\" model of remembering favors. The possibilities are endless. But an essential component of blockchain is that it contains a complete history of all community-relevant events. (We could perhaps generalize to truncated histories if data storage is a problem.)\nDatabase Management Systems (DBMS) and the Read/Write Privilege\nAlright then, suppose that a given community (consisting of people, different divisions within a firm, different firms in a supply chain, etc.) wants to manage a chained-block of histories H(t-1) over time. How is this to be done?\nAlong with a specification of what is to constitute the relevant information to be contained in the database, any DBMS will have to specify parameters restricting:\n1. The Read Privilege (who, what, and how);\n2. The Write Privilege (who, what, and how).\nThat is, who gets to gets to read and write history? Is the database to be completely open, like a public library? Or will some information be held in locked vaults, accessible only with permission? And if by permission, how is this to be granted? By a trusted person, by algorithm, or some other manner? Even more important is the question of who gets to write history. As I explained earlier, the possibility for manipulation along this dimension is immense. How to guard against to attempts to fabricate history?\nHistorically, in \"small\" communities (think traditional hunter-gatherer societies) this was accomplished more or less automatically. There are no strangers in a small, isolated village and communal monitoring is relatively easy. Brave deeds and foul acts alike, unobserved by some or even most, rapidly become common knowledge. This is true even of the small communities we belong to today (at work, in clubs, families, friends, etc.). Kocherlakota (1996) labels H(t-1) in this scenario \"societal memory.\" I like to think of it as a virtual database of individual histories living in a distributed ledger of brains talking to each other in a P2P fashion, with additions to, and maintenance of, the shared history determined through a consensus mechanism. In this primitive DBMS, read and write privileges are largely open, the latter being subject to consensus. It all sounds so...blockchainy.\nWhile the primitive \"blockchain\" described above works well enough for small societies, it doesn't scale very well. Today, the traditional local networks of human brains have been augmented (and to some extent replaced) by a local and global networks of computers capable of communicating over the Internet. Achieving rapid consensus in a large heterogeneous community characterized by a vast flows of information is a rather daunting task.\nThe \"solution\" to this problem has largely taken the form of proprietary databases with highly restricted read privileges managed by trusted entities who are delegated the write privilege. The double-spend problem for digital money, for example, is solved by delegating the record-keeping task to a bank, located within a banking system, performing debit/credit operations on a set of proprietary ledgers connected to a central hub (a clearing agency) typically managed by a central bank.\nThe Problem and the Blockchain Solution\nDepending on your perspective, the system that has evolved to date is either (if you are born before 1980) a great improvement over how things operated when we were young, or (if you are born post 1980) a hopelessly tangled hodgepodge of networks that have trouble communicating with each other and are intolerably vulnerable to data breaches (see figure below, courtesy Ed Corno of IBM).\nThe solution to this present state of affairs is presented as blockchain (defined earlier) which Ed depicts in the following way,\nWell sure, this looks like a more organized way to keep the books and clear up communication channels, though the details concerning how consensus is achieved in this system remain a little hazy to me. As I mentioned earlier, I'm guessing that it'll be based on some reputation-based mechanism. But if this is the case, then why can't we depict the solution in the following way?\nThat is, gather all the agents and agencies interacting with each other, forming them into a more organized community, but keep it based on the traditional client-server (or hub-and-spoke) model. In the center, we have the set of trusted \"historians\" (bankers, accountants, auditors, database managers, etc.) who are granted the write-privilege. Communications between members may be intermediated either by historians or take place in a P2P manner with the historians listening in. The database can consist of the chain-blocked sets of information (blockchain) H(t-1) described above. The parameters governing the read-privilege can be determined beforehand by the needs of the community. The database could be made completely open--which is equivalent to rendering it shared. And, of course, multiple copies of the database can be made as often as is deemed necessary.\nThe point I'm making is, if we're ultimately going to depend on reputation-based consensus mechanisms, then we need no new innovation (like blockchain) to organize a database. While I'm no expert in the field of database management, it seems to me that standard protocols, for example, in the form of SQL Server 2017, can accommodate what is needed technologically and operationally (if anyone disagrees with me on this matter, please comment below).\nExtending the Write Privilege: Game-Based Consensus\nAs explained above, extending the read-privilege is not a problem technologically. We are all free to publish our diaries online, creating a shared-distributed ledger of our innermost thoughts. Extending the write-privilege to unknown or untrusted parties, however, is an entirely different matter. Of course, this depends in part on the nature of the information to be stored. Wikipedia seems to work tolerably well. But its hard to use Wikipedia as currency. This is not the case with personal action histories. You don't want other people writing your diary!\nWell, fine, so you don't trust \"the Man.\" What then? One alternative is to game the write privilege. The idea is to replace the trusted historian with a set of delegates drawn from the community (a set potentially consisting of the entire community). Next, have these delegates play a validation/consensus game designed in such a way that the equilibrium (say, Nash or some other solution concept) strategy profile chosen by each delegate at every date t = 1,2,3,... entails: (1) No tampering with recorded history H(t-1); and (2) Only true blocks E(t) are validated and appended to the ledger H(t-1).\nWhat we have done here is replace one type of faith for another. Instead of having faith in mechanisms that rely on personal reputations, we must now trust that the mechanism governing non-cooperative play in the validation/consensus game will deliver a unique equilibrium outcome with the desired properties. I think this is in part what people mean when I hear them say \"trust the math.\"\nWell, trusting the math is one thing. Trusting in the outcome of a non-cooperative game is quite another matter. The relevant field in economics is called mechanism design. I'm not going to get into details here, but suffice it to say, it's not so straightforward designing mechanisms with sure-fire good properties. Ironically, mechanisms like Bitcoin will have to build up trust the old-fashioned way--through positive user experience (much the same way most of us trust our vehicles to function, even if we have little idea how an internal combustion engine works).\nOf course, the same holds true for games based on reputational mechanisms. The difference is, I think, that non-cooperative consensus games are intrinsically more costly to operate than their reputational counterparts. The proof-of-work game played by Bitcoin miners, for example, is made intentionally costly (to prevent DDoS attacks) even though validating the relevant transaction information is virtually costless if left in the hands of a trusted validator. And if a lack of transparency is the problem for trusted systems, this conceptually separate issue can be dealt with by extending the read-privilege communally.\nHaving said this, I think that depending on the circumstances and the application, the cost associated with a game-based consensus mechanism may be worth incurring. I think we have to remain agnostic on this matter for now and see how future developments unfold.\nBlockchain: Powering DAOs\nIf Blockchain (with non-cooperative consensus) has a comparative advantage, where might it be? To me, the clear application is in supporting Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). A DAO is basically a set of rules written as a computer program. Because it possesses no central authority or node, it can offer tailor-made \"legal\" systems unencumbered by prevailing laws and regulations, at least, insofar as transactions are limited to virtual fulfillments (e.g., debit/credit operations on a ledger).\nBitcoin is an example of a DAO, though the intermediaries that are associated with Bitcoin obviously are not. Ethereum is a platform that permits the construction of more sophisticated DAOs via the use of smart contracts. The comparative advantages of DAOs are that they permit: (1) a higher degree of anonymity; (2) permissionless access and use; and (3) commitment to contractual terms (smart contracts).\nIt's not immediately clear to me what value these comparative advantages have for registered businesses. There may be a role for legally compliant smart contracts (a tricky business for international transactions). But perhaps the potential is much more than I can presently imagine. Time will tell.\nLink to my past posts on the subject of Bitcoin and Blockchain.\nPosted by David Andolfatto at 2:00 PM\nCharlotte Lancaster June 27, 2018 at 10:45 AM\nHi David, amazing and very detailed write-up. Am I right, Bitcoin was introduced by software developers to the world in 2009 and perhaps this is the only write-up where author has mentioned why we do not need it. I really enjoyed reading this.\nRichard Brown July 8, 2018 at 6:48 AM\nHi David - this is why I argue there are two revolutions underway, both addressing the same (technical) requirement but each having very different trust/game-theoretic assumptions and hence address very different 'business' requirements. 1) the game-based consensus revolution (as you describe it) which, at its core, attempts to provide censorship-resistance with respect to transaction confirmation and so enables things like cryptocurrencies. 2) a more permissioned (perhaps more centralised) revolution which attempts to enable applications to be built at the level of industries/markets rather than firms (as is presently the case, hence needing to endless, mindless reconciliation between firms) without requiring the introduction of new business-level intermediaries such as CCPs, etc. At the technical level they both rest on the idea of 'trust but verify' (in that nobody blindly believes what a database operated by somebody else tells them; they run their own copy of the software, which verifies for themselves) but they differ in who/what they trust to determine if a transaction has been confirmed or not. This latter point is important... the ONLY service that, say, bitcoin miners are providing at their core is transaction ordering... ie they are the arbiters of which transaction came 'first' in the event that two happen to collide (eg a double-spend). This is the thing you can't decide for yourself by independently valuing a chain of transactions. Revolution 1) typically imposes no limits/rules on who can participate in the confirmation process (and hence limits censorship) but at the cost (at least with today's algorithms) of only probabilistic finality. 2) typically is more strict on how consensus is formed in order to deliver finality but at the cost of (potentially) enabling those parties to suppress transactions.\nI know my formulation is not universally accepted but I think it's important to write it this way because it explains why \"just use a centralised database\" misses the point. A centralised database is designed on the assumption that the operator is trusted and the users are the adversaries (hence strict read/write permissions, etc). But the problem we're trying to solve when deploying an application to an entire market is to allow each firm to run its *own* copy of the application so that users in that firm can trust its output but without requiring that copy of the app to blindly trust what it is told by other people's copies. This \"each party runs the (same) logic\" is one of the key steps forward I think we're seeing. Sorry if this isn't fully clear... I've written it quickly and I probably need to tighten up part of the argument. (I'm also working on a blog post about \"decentralised software for decentralised markets\" which pursues some of the same themes... it should be out early next week)\nDavid Andolfatto July 8, 2018 at 8:30 PM\nRichard, thank you for this thoughtful response.\nIf I've missed the point with my \"just use a centralized database,\" then I'm sure I'm not alone! To me, having the data live on a central ledger (with multiple copies distributed however one likes) open for all to see does not necessarily mean (to me) that \"a centralized database is designed on the assumption that the operator is trusted.\" I admit, however, that you are likely to know better than I what is involved here given that you're working in the space. I look forward to seeing a practical application of enterprise-level blockchain. Cheers.\nRichard Brown July 9, 2018 at 12:15 AM\nHi David. I freely admit I could be totally wrong! I tried to capture what I _think_ is a useful insight here: https://gendal.me/2016/11/08/on-distributed-databases-and-distributed-ledgers/ . The devil in the detail with your comment above is this: \"having the data live on a central ledger (with multiple copies distributed however one likes)\". The problem is: when that information is \"distributed\" to me, who am I trusting for its accuracy?\nImagine the information was something like: \"Barclays Bank now owes Richard GBP1M\". And imagine further that the operator of this central database is not in fact Barclays (since it is also used to track balances at other banks or manage other types of legal agreements). Who would be willing to run such a system in a way that would convince other people to use it (think of the liability if there was a mistake!) Put the other way, who would be willing to use such a system _unless_ the operator carried liability?\nSimply saying \"the data is distributed\" (somehow) doesn't answer any questions: if I receive data through my front door then I either have to trust the person who sent it to me as to its accuracy/provenance or I need to independently check it for myself.\nIn scenarios where you can do the former (eg because the operator of the centralised databases is ALSO the firm whose liabilities it represents - as in today's banking system and associated computer systems) then just use a centralised database. But if you need to check the data yourself (by examining historical records, checking any asset movements were correctly signed and linked together, etc) then you've just described the thought process that led to Corda. ie a blockchain-inspired decentralised database.\nBlockchain: what it is, what it does, and why you ...\nLowflation: Then and Now",

        "raw_content": "You don't have to live like they tell you: Jack's violin bows, Graydon's war bow, and landscaping with ancient tiles...\nJACK from Grace Jackson on Vimeo.\nMeet Jack. He's 93, and he makes violin bows to make ends meet.\n\"Life has its problems...it's how well you contend with those problems that's going to be the result...\"\nGraydon's Longbow\nA friend of mine who lives as a \"freelance hermit\" at home with her family, praying and thinking about things in the Carmelite way, says that one of the most important things she learned in her three years in her Carmelite monastery was how crucial manual labour is.\nI knew an independent-minded guy once who wanted to learn woodworking, and taught himself with a special project. He was fascinated with history and was greatly puzzled by the incredible success of the English yew longbow in the wars with France in the 14th and 15th centuries. He had friends who did archery and couldn't figure out how a bow could possibly punch an arrow through plate armour, as the English bow had done at Crecy, Poitiers and Agincourt. So he decided to build one and test it out. He didn't have a workshop, so he just turned his apartment (third floor) living room into a workshop. He wanted the experiment to be completely authentic, so he used no power tools. He researched at the library and spoke to people who did hand woodwork.\nIn the end, he had built himself a laminated yew longbow, with all the materials according to period sources. It was huge. He was a big guy, standing at least 6 foot 4. But this thing was taller by far, unstrung. He was able to bend it, but only because he was so strong. I couldn't budge the thing. We tested it and it was an 85 pound pull. (A normal target archery bow is usually no more than about 30 pounds.) He brought it to archery practice one evening, and we all clustered around. He pulled, and the arrow made a sound like a bullet. Our ordinary target bows would go the full length of the indoor range, and leave the arrow well buried in the straw butt. With this terrifying weapon, the arrow went all the way through the butt and lodged itself an inch into the concrete cinder block behind it. He had brought along a piece of 16 gauge hot-rolled steel, quite a bit stronger than the steel of the knights' armour would have been. The arrow punched right through it. My friend was very pleased and we all congratulated him. Graydon was not the kind of guy who was interested in living the way other people lived.\nDo something physical every day.\nEarly stages. Mid-March. The bean poles are partly bamboo poles I bought, and partly rose canes I collected. I've made some of the rose canes into an arch, and they have sprouted new wild rose shoots in the pots. Free roses!\nBertie, among the potted roses. The big glass thing is an old insulator that fell off a power pole. You find all sorts of cool things if you just get out of the house once in a while.\nHenry. All growed up and looking for things to kill. During our warm spell in March, he was catching a lizard a day.\nPippy and the flowering plum tree.You can see the slope of the back garden looming up. That's the neighbour's retaining wall way up there. But the whole thing is now covered in widlflowers. And it's poppy season. The birds and butterflies love it.\nI've moved on from merely gardening to starting full scale landscaping.\nI've decided to build a little pavement on the flat bit.\nThere is very little flat ground in the garden, with most of it being a very rocky slope of about 30-45 degrees with a thin layer of good soil. But the soil gets washed down the slope and lands on the little flat strip at the bottom. Out of this,\nMy veg patch. There are two rows of sunflowers on each end now. But I'm glad I didn't plant out the pumpkin seedlings. We had a nasty night of hard frost in mid-April that nearly killed my potatoes and has killed all the wisteria in town. I've got pumpkins, tomatoes and beets ready to go in. Maurizio at the monks' shop told me the locals only plant after Saint Rita's day, just to be sure.\nI've dug a little veg patch, about eight feet long by three feet wide. There's room for a bit more, but the soil is very poor. I've been composting like mad, but really the best we can do is to do things in little patches, which I shore up with big stones (there's lots, and lots of stones) into steps. Everything else is in pots. There is a little squarish patch in front of the front porch thingy where there is soil but it's become very compacted and even the weeds won't really grow on it. But it's in a little alcove with pots of flowers on one side and the terraced slope on the other. If there were a little bit of pavement there, it would be a nice sheltered place to sit and have tea and maybe write in the summer. So I've started collecting tiles.\nIn this part of Italy, one of the most important building materials were these big, rectangular terracotta tiles, really just thin bricks, made from the local red clay and fired very hard. They're about 18 inches by 8 inches and two to three inches thick and were used to build walls and floors in the Old Days. All the ruins nearby are like little quarries of ancient and medieval building materials. And there are lots of these old houses and buildings obviously having simply been abandoned - probably hundreds of years ago - and forgotten. They sit like big piles of dressed and sometimes carved rocks in the middle of fields, often with the farmers just calmly ploughing and planting around them, as though they are just natural features of the landscape.\nOne of the bigger ruins. About a half hour hike from my house.\nThis is just how things are in Italy. There's so much old stuff lying around that no one really cares about it. (I had always wondered how St. Francis of Assisi could have just found an old church and started rebuilding it. Where I come from, anything older than 75 years has a velvet rope around it and a preservation society. But I wonder no more. There are so many old ruined churches around here abouts that I have had half a mind to do the same thing, just for the fun of it.) A few weeks ago, I had a stomp around and discovered one of these ancient farm houses on the hill almost directly above my house. It was so tumbled that from the road further up it was entirely invisible, looking like just a hump in the ground with some hazel trees on it. But from the other side, you can see a big pit that was once the root cellar, the crumbling remains of walls and even a stone doorway with scraps of the old timber lintel. In front of it, once upon a long time ago, there had been a little pear orchard, and the trees are obviously still fruiting. Around and over top of it is a stand of hazel, mixed with wild roses. I'll be making a point of visiting it a great deal for building materials, and I'll take some pics for y'all next time I go up there.\nThere's little remaining of the house, though, and not much in the way of tiles. So to find those, I went the other day to a place near the bottom of the valley, about half way between here and the little village of Serravale, where the ruins of a medieval mill - quite a large and important one in its day, I guess - sits like a big pile of useful abandoned things. The place has three stone lined tunnels that run underneath where the water ran through and turned the millstones. But now, the tunnels run under what looks like a big hill, covered in grass and weeds and small trees on one side. On the other the remains of a whole large stone building can be found. No roof, but the walls mostly intact. You can climb up over the walls and down into the room, but there is a small hill of tumbled stones, clay bricks and tiles inside. It can be pretty dangerous, with everything being loose and lots of sharp, pointy bits sticking up, and the whole thing potentially sliding out from under your feet at any moment. It's so cool! I can't resist it.\nThe other day I went down there and collected up seven tiles, which together must have weighed about 50 pounds. It was all I could carry with my backpack, and I only just managed to get them back as far as my bike. I loaded them into the bike's baskets and pedalled very slowly back to town. I figure I could get maybe a dozen back if I go down with my wheelie shopping cart.\nThey're really beautiful tiles, with a patina of age on them, but good and sturdy, and each one different. Nothing like the thin, machine-made and artificially identical ceramic floor tiles you see in most people's terraces and houses. I've figured out that I could create a little rustico terrace with about 30 of them. Place them a little apart and fill in the spaces with a little potting soil and plant some of the wild thyme that grows on my rocky slope in between, so when you walk on them in the summer, the scent of thyme will fill the air.\nThe same rainy day I also brought home a collection of new plants. A beautiful aquilegia, three wild strawberry plants, some blue comfrey and a bunch of thyme.\nLabels: Life in Italy, Norcia, The Adventures of Nature Girl\n\"You don;t have to live like they tell you...\"\nGreat article.

        "raw_content": "Types of Shedding Foundations \u2013 Which is the Best?\nAs with all types of structures, it is important to provide a solid, level, and square base, because without this structure its structure is unstable and rapidly deteriorates. If it takes time to plan the project properly, it will last for many years. In this article you will find some of the methods used to build a floor base, such as concrete slabs, jetties and beams, and treated wood blocks.\nThe foundation of slab concrete slab is also known as a plate-based base. The concrete slab is the best method, as it is a stronger type, if properly done. This method may need some equipment and this will be avoided. For the correct result, the appropriate procedure and the appropriate mix of cement are required. It's a challenging task for architects.\nPole and Beam\nThe bases of the jetty and the beam go a few steps to the base of the concrete slab. It is a simple but effective and smart choice if the building needs to be moved in the coming years. This kind of foundation can take time to build, but it is safer and more comfortable. The crawl area allows you to access heating and plumbing, avoiding access to the concrete slab. The pier center base is less susceptible to damage caused by ground offsets. The Foundation can be easily set up for extreme ground conditions.\nTreated Wood Runners\nTreated wood runners are the simplest and non-permanent solution. For this treatment, a treated wood is required to withstand infection and decay. Wooden houses are affordable but not as durable as concrete or other primers. Before you begin, simply delete the area and level of the proposed room. It is important that your structure is firm and level.\nThen there is always the Internet if you need to build precise layouts on a strong foundation.

If you will require a visa to visit Rwanda, be sure to allow plenty of time for the application process before your departure date.\nInformation regarding visas can be found here, however travel regulations are known to change without notice to the public. We recommend before you travel, to check the current regulations with the Rwandan Embassy in your country.\nAt present the following applies:\nNationals from the following countries may visit Rwanda without a visa for a period up to 90 days: Hong Kong, Philippines, Mauritius, Singapore and the Democratic Republic of Congo.\nEAC Partner states\u2019 citizens shall be issued with a six-month visitor\u2019s pass (renewable) upon arrival with no fee.\nNationals of all African countries, Australia, Germany, Israel, New Zealand, Sweden, United Kingdom, and the United States of America will be issued with an entry visa valid for a period of up to 30 days and can pay for a visa (USD 30) upon arrival without prior application.\nEveryone else needs to apply for a visa in their country of residence at a Rwandan Embassy or Consulate. Conference visas are called Class T6-1: Conference (single entry). They cost USD 30 and are valid for 30 days.\nIf Rwanda isn\u2019t represented in your country, then you need to register online at Rwanda Immigration (www.migration.gov.rw) before you travel. Once you\u2019ve submitted the online form you\u2019ll receive your letter of entitlement within three days. Present this letter at the border along with the fee to obtain a visa.\nRwandan Embassies and Consulates abroad may require some or all the following to accompany visa applications: a valid passport, a visa support letter / invitation letter, an onward air ticket (or airline itinerary), a yellow-fever vaccination certificate and proof of sufficient funds.\nAn applicant should have a valid passport or another acceptable travel document.\nThe document must have a validity of at least 6 months on the day of entry in Rwanda and at least two (2) blank facing pages.\nA visa support letter is NOT required for passport holders of: All African nations, Australia, Germany, Israel, New Zealand, Sweden, United Kingdom, United States of America, Hong Kong, Philippines, Mauritius and Singapore.\nIf you DO NOT hold a passport from any of the above countries, you will require a visa application support letter. The AORTIC 2017 Conference Secretariat cannot issue formal invitation letters or actual visas to attend the conference, but can issue a Visa Support Letter to assist with your visa application. Participants can then use this letter when making their own arrangements for issuance of an entry visa to Rwanda.\nVisa Support Letters are issued through the online registration system, but only after full payment for registration fees has been received. Visa Support Letters are only issued via email in PDF format and will be issued from mid-August after proof of payment for registration fees is received by the Conference Secretariat. Please note that visa support letters can only be issued to participants who have registered before 26 October 2017.\nIf you require a Visa Support Letter, please complete the following sections on the Personal Details section registration system:\nA yellow fever inoculation certificate is required for entry into Rwanda if you have travelled from or through a yellow fever zone in the previous 6 days before entry. You cannot get an inoculation upon arrival and your inoculation certificate must be dated at least ten days prior to your arrival in Rwanda.\nContact our conference secretariat: info@aorticconference.org",

        "title": "Q&A: The Deep Web, Anonymity, and Law Enforcement - Security News - Trend Micro APAC",
        "raw_content": "Following the takedown of the notorious black market Silk Road in 2013, Agora, one of the biggest online marketplaces in the Deep Web recently announced a temporary shutdown to shore up defenses and address vulnerabilities. These incidents raise a number of questions about the Deep Web, including the role of law enforcement and how this will affect the future of organizations, companies, and users who seek anonymity.\nMartin Roesler, Senior Director of the Trend Micro Forward-Looking Threat Research (FTR) team, answers questions about the Deep Web, its challenges to law enforcement, and why it will continue to be used as a platform for anonymity.\nHow safe or efficient is TOR (The Onion Router) in protecting a person\u2019s anonymity?\nMaintaining anonymity in the Deep Web depends on the user. Because TOR has already become popular, many users tend to neglect certain things they need to do to stay hidden. If you go into the Deep Web, you'll find a lot of users who still leave their email addresses, making them searchable. For those who are careful, they know that they shouldn\u2019t run other applications while running TOR because they could still be tracked that way. To answer the question, TOR is not as safe as one would like to think.\nSome government agencies like the NSA use TOR vulnerabilities to track illegal activities in the Deep Web. How does this work?\nThe TOR network is based on a very simple principle wherein a communication tunnel is built with one TOR node. From that TOR node, the traffic is encrypted, repacked, and made invisible from one TOR entry node, to a middle TOR node, and on and on until it exits on another TOR gateway. While this gateway is practically untraceable, the traffic to and from the TOR gateway can be traced. This makes the TOR architecture vulnerable. Law enforcement and intelligence agencies have analyzed this weakness, and so this is one strategy that can be used to overcome the limitation that the TOR gateway represents.\nTo defend their countries and track criminals, law enforcement agencies want to know what\u2019s going to happen and who\u2019s behind it. There are many rumored numbers in the community that says 70% or more of the TOR gateways are owned by intelligence services. If this was true, then the origins of 70% of the so-called encrypted traffic can still be traced.\nIt\u2019s less about TOR and more about the role of intelligence agencies like the NSA. Because of the convenient and ubiquitous nature of the Internet, the borders have become more obsolete. The NSA and FBI are using dated rule sets from the old world to fight against cybercriminals. In essence, old-school protection mechanisms can hardly stand up to the advancement and changes of Internet technology.\nWhat challenges does the Deep Web pose to law enforcement?\nLaw enforcement are already facing enough challenges when it comes to dealing with international crime on the \u201cSurface Web.\u201d When it comes to the Deep Web, there are additional aspects that make life for law enforcement even more difficult. Essentially, there are three major issues that law enforcement has to cope with:\nEverything in the Deep Web or Dark Web is encrypted. That means the criminals are more wary of being monitored or trapped. Encryption is their very first countermeasure to avoid getting caught.\nAttribution is also one of the major problems. Since everything mostly happens on the .onion domains and the routing to the domains isn't clear, it becomes extremely difficult to identify and analyze the criminal\u2019s profile.\nSince the Deep Web is in flux, everything is very dynamic. Illegal marketplaces are moving locations every week, causing constant changes to the naming and address schemes in the Deep Web. Unlike www.trendmicro.com, which is always static, the information harvested from the Deep Web two weeks ago will no longer be relevant today. So if a judge or an investigation wants to check a URL involved in a criminal case, they end up nowhere. So that is definitely a challenge here, all the evidence is not only written, you have to document everything, you have to have screenshots and you have to make the evidence with timestamps, so that later on you can say it was this person at this time so a defense lawyer or an advocate cannot kill your chain of argument.\n[READ: Below the Surface: Exploring the Deep Web]\nFollowing Snowden\u2019s leaks and recent security breaches such as the OPM hack, companies have beefed up their security by providing stronger encryption, while U.S. government websites were mandated to do the same. However, there has been an ongoing discussion about the government wanting to prevent companies from using encryption. What can you say about this issue?\nThe U.S. has restarted discussions on what kinds of technology are allowed to be exported. They are mainly concerned about the export of cryptographic algorithms. Turkey has a law that forbids encrypted traffic because it gives cybercriminals an unfair advantage. This becomes a major argument as they want to balance the field between police and cybercriminals. The mindset behind this is that if a user uses encryption, they have something to hide and is suspicious by default. However, on the flip side, if we talk about electronic passports, users vote via the Internet and use online banking as well\u2014and this becomes all about needing encryption to protect and verify identity. This is anarchic because on the one end we have electronic passports, online voting and online banking\u2014all of this relies on encryption.\nThere is an approach from multiple countries that paints encryption as illegal\u2014that only the state has a right to use encryption. However, on the flip side, if we talk about electronic passports, users vote via the Internet and use online banking as well\u2014and this becomes all about needing encryption to protect and verify identity. It doesn\u2019t make sense to allow encryption on one end and forbid it at the other end. That is an approach by people who have no idea how the technology works or what the Internet is but want to regulate that and maintain the status quo and the influence of the state.\nWhat is the role of security vendors in all of this?\nThe Deep Web part of the Internet will grow in the future, as people try to dodge stricter regulations. The battle of encryption between organizations, companies, and individuals will continue. From a security vendor\u2019s point of view, this is a problem that needs to be addressed carefully because the Deep Web is expected to be involved in a lot of social and economic developments that will be much more important in the next five years than it is today.\nSecurity vendors strive to protect their customers as often and as much as they can, but if users or companies get hit by malware because they used the Deep Web, then security vendors have to create and provide solutions for such problems.\nThe Deep Web isn\u2019t only about drug-dealing or the procurement of drugs in general, but many users who discuss taboo topics or perform activities that aren\u2019t socially acceptable ultimately bring them to use the Deep Web. This is why Trend Micro at this point has two tasks: one is to monitor the Deep Web and see if there are any activities that might impact customers. This is done by checking for crypto services or the sale of malware and exploit kits. Two is to protect customers like journalists and other potentially endangered individuals who exchange sensitive information, since the Deep Web isn\u2019t just a place for criminals but also for people who want to communicate without fear of having to fall under suspicion. Trend Micro ensures that it covers all parts of the Web, including the Deep Web.\nVisit the Deep Web section of the Threat Intelligence Center for more on the Deep Web and the Cybercriminal Underground.\nPosted in Cybercrime & Digital Threats, Deep Web, Law Enforcement\nThe Rise and Fall of Scan4You",

        "raw_content": "5 big names compete for $28 billion design\nFive major architects have been shortlisted to redesign the business hub of South Korea\u2019s capital city. Asymptote (with Hargreaves Associates), Foster + Partners, Jerde Partnership, Skidmore Owings and Merrill and Studio Daniel Libeskind have been given US$1m to submit designs to the Yongsan Development Co. for the US$27bn rejuvenation of the Yongsan international business district.\nFollowing a three year war which ended in 1953, South Korea was rebuilt hastily and formed with little architectural thought. Near the banks of the Han River, the district, known as the \u201cDream Hub\u201d, will cover 140 acres and transform the city into a more hospitable and architecturally interesting hotspot for business particularly aimed at being friendly to Western business.\nSamsung C&T corporation are a major investor in the development - their Business Development Team Vice President, Gyeongtaek Lee, has no qualms over the viability of the project. He said: \u201cSuch an achievement is attributable to the fact that this is a low risk project with both financial and strategic investors balancing the consortium.\u201d He added, \u201cWe plan to create a global business town starting with a spectacular landmark skyscraper and 12 commercial buildings.\u201d\nThe 12 commercial buildings are expected to rise between 20-70 floors and a further 7 residential/commercial buildings will rise between 20-50 stories. The proposed date of construction is 2011.\nTham & Videgard Hansson complete Kalmar Museum of Art\nSituated in the City Park of the renaissance town of Kalmar, the new Kalmar Museum, designed by Tham & Videgard Hansson Arkitekter of Sweden, is built next to a restaurant pavilion dating from the 1930s by moderninst architect Sven-Ivar Lind.\nThe four storey black cube clad with large scale wooden panels punctuated with large glazed openings will house both the Kalmar collection of modern art and provide space for temporary exhibitions.\nDomestic in scale this museum provides a variety of exhibition conditions. The two main spaces are the white box where one side can open up completely to bring in the exterior of the park, and the top floor gallery that is lit by shed head light shafts doubling its ceiling height. In addition, there is a public art library and open workshops. One of the main architectural features is an open stair that spirals the full height of the building. The four floors, each different from the others, are stacked on top of each other and create a vertical walk up into the greenery of the trees with a series of different spatial experiences while offering views of the environs including the Kalmar castle the lake and the city center.\nThe building is cast concrete. The interior finishes are exposed concrete, black stained plywood doors and panels, white painted walls and natural ash.",

        "raw_content": "Andrew Criss:\nREHOBOTH BEACH--In less than two years artist Andrew Criss has left his mark on Rehoboth Beach. Criss' paintings can be found throughout the resort town, from galleries to private collections to the walls of popular restaurants. This summer two major (and distinctly different) showings of Criss' paintings will hang in Rehoboth Beach. A large collection of landscapes will be displayed at the Rehoboth Art League's Homestead Gallery from July 20 to September 3, and an exhibit of figurative paintings will be featured at the Blue Moon restaurant for the month of September.\nAccording to Nancy Alexander, director of the Rehoboth Art League, \"Criss is an amazingly flexible artist. He's known for his wonderful portraits--and when I discovered his landscapes, I was surprised and delighted.\"\nLike many citizens of Rehoboth Beach, Criss first learned of the town while living in Washington, DC. \"After spending my twenties working as a designer and illustrator,\" says Criss, \"I was ready to focus on my goal of being a full-time artist. Rehoboth is the perfect place to do that.\"\nWord soon spread about Criss and his vibrant, evocative paintings. Local collectors and visitors from Washington, DC to Washington State began to solicit the painter. \"I felt connected to Andrew Criss' art the first time I saw it,\" says Sylvia Evans, archivist for the Charles Demuth Museum in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. \"His figurative work is completely unsentimental but remarkably compassionate. Landscape painting allows Andrew to explore another dimension of his creative potential.\"\n\"Landscapes by Andrew Criss\" will open with a reception on July 20 from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at the Rehoboth Art League's Homestead Gallery, 12 Dodds Lane, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. The reception is free and open to the public. The exhibit runs through September 3. For more information, call (302) 227-8408.\n\"Men: New Figurative Paintings by Andrew Criss\" will open September 1 at the Blue Moon restaurant 35 Baltimore Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, with a free reception from 2:00 to 4:00 PM. The exhibit will show the month of September.

        "raw_content": "A few things for spring, and a new website\nAll this week I've been working on bringing my little art web page up to date from 1999 to...well more like 2005. I'm not much for web design, to the point where I've been nostalgically content to leave things there the same way for over a decade. But as long as the tools are available that even someone like me can make something semi-pleasant to the eye and only 10 years out of date, as opposed to 15, I might as well utilize them.\nSo far I only have artwork up in Gallery 1, which is Halloween, gothic and horror art, with a couple dozen paintings represented, along with links to the items which are available for sale. I'll be adding more including many images that have been hiding in my vaults for ages. The custom page has information for new original art and repaints of previously painted images.\nI know that personal web pages are about as relevant as landlines at this point in time, but it's still nice to have a little place to call your own, right?\nMeanwhile, with spring around the corner (in some places more than others....I realize it doesn't feel like spring in many places) I have some Easter/Ostara and spring-friendly prints and paintings ready for the season, for decoration or gift-giving. First up is a new version of a painting from about a dozen years ago that I resurrected from the vaults...\n\"Ostara's Basket\" available as an 8 x 10 original painting\nor a 5 x 7 photo print\n\"Spring in the Witch's Garden\" is now available as an 5 x 7 print\nand the original is still available as well.\n\"Stardust and Dragon Dreams\" is available as a 5 x 7 print. Not spring specifically, but the pastel colors are very appropriate for the season!\n\"Sleeping Among the Seaweed\" is available as a 5 x 7 print. Mermaids put me in the mind of summer, but it's not too early to think about that, now, is it?\n\"Sisters of the Crypt is now available as a 5 x 7 print\nand the original is available as well. Because it's always Halloweeen...\nEven when it's St. Patrick's Day. Which has its own charming lore and traditions as well, which have absolutely nothing to do with drinking (despite what every store on earth would have you believe in their 'holiday' section this month...geez...). Click the link below for some haunted crafts for non-Halloween holidays....or follow the suggestion to find them on Etsy! Happy spring, whenever it comes!\nLabels: art, dragon, easter, ostara, painting, prints, spring, web site, witch\nAntarctic travels, and lost paintings\nMy last post here was Halloween, as the winter holiday season is typically a time that I try to step away from the computer for as much as possible. While it's a brutal winter back home in the Northeast, I've been living my own version of the frozen wasteland, by reading a lot about Antarctica recently.\nThere's a classic travelogue of Capt. Scott's journey to the South Pole (with special focus on a side trip to gather penguin eggs) by Apsley Cherry-Garrard, written in the 1920s but taking place in 1910-1913. It's available free as a public domain text from all the usual places (I got mine from Manybooks because those are always formatted nicely). The writing style is humorous at times, and at other times gets bogged down in a lot of description of coordinates, numbers of ounces of pemmican consumed at various meals, etc.\nOne of the most delightful things I learned in this reading was that one of the members of the expedition, Dr. E.A. \"Bill\" Wilson, did watercolors throughout the journey, some of which have been preserved. These photos from the Terra Nova expedition can be seen at various places online -- I am borrowing a glimpse of them from the Cool Antarctica website. It lists them as courtesy the NOAA. I love the soft colors and the otherworldly quality of these paintings -- they were done under extreme, freezing conditions, with the few materials he had at hand, and that is part of why I love them so much.\nby Dr. E.A. Wilson \"Scott's Last Expedition\" 1913\nThe past few years have been full of \"Scott of the Antarctic\" related news, in fact....in 2012 they found his ship, the Terra Nova, off the coast of Greenland... and incredibly, one year ago they finished retracing the Scott expedition, a wondrous event I wish I had been following in real time.\nAt any rate, whatever the reason for my interest in Antarctic (and Arctic, which I also want to read up on) exploration, I like doing paintings of icy world landscapes as well so here is my contribution to the genre for now, \"Penguin Peak\" --\nI made a special trip to the aquarium pyramid at Moody Gardens in Galveston to meet some penguins in honor of my recent interests.Unfortunately, there is not a \"swim with the penguins\" option.\nHere are a few other things new in my Etsy shop. First, a new version of a painting I originally did in 2003, but I wanted to recreate it and eventually make prints from it as well. I don't have hi-res pics of my paintings from that far back, but I also like to repaint, and hopefully improve upon them. \"On the Green Moon\" is available as an original painting for a mere $50 for a limited time.\nI also uncovered some older paintings that I haven't had up for sale anywhere in a long time. I kept them in my personal stash but I'm willing to put them out there, for now....if there are no takers I'll put them back in my personal stash. :)\nThis butterfly fairy is 9 x 12 and only $60 for the duration of this listing. She is based on a vintage postcard photo but I added all the fairy and butterfly elements.\nAnd finally, a D&D inspired piece showing some classic dungeon monsters taking a coffee or tea break. Also at a special price and for a limited time. I can make prints of any of these on request but I haven't specifically listed prints on their own yet.\nWe do, however, have some of the most popular prints back in stock right now...including ghosts, banana slugs, cloaked witches and this, possibly my most popular piece...these always sell out quickly when I get a few in stock!\nLabels: antarctica, art, butterfly, cold, D&D, etsy, fairy, frozen, monsters, moon, paintings, penguins, prints, ufo, unicorn, winter",

Although Poe wrote this short story before the invention of modern psychological science, Roderick\u2019s symptoms can be described according to its terminology. They include hyperesthesia (extreme hypersensitivity to light, sounds, smells, and tastes), hypochondria (an excessive preoccupation or worry about having a serious illness), and acute anxiety. It is revealed that Roderick\u2019s twin sister, Madeline, is also ill and falls into cataleptic, death-like trances. The narrator is impressed with Roderick\u2019s paintings, and attempts to cheer him by reading with him and listening to his improvised musical compositions on the guitar. Roderick sings \u201cThe Haunted Palace\u201d, then tells the narrator that he believes the house he lives in to be sentient, and that this sentience arises from the arrangement of the masonry and vegetation surrounding it.\nRoderick later informs the narrator that his sister has died and insists that she be entombed for two weeks in a vault in the house before being permanently buried. They inter her, but over the next week both Roderick and the narrator find themselves becoming increasingly agitated for no apparent reason. A storm begins. Roderick comes to the narrator\u2019s bedroom, which is situated directly above the vault, and throws open his window to the storm. He notices that the tarn surrounding the house seems to glow in the dark, as it glowed in Roderick Usher\u2019s paintings, although there is no lightning.\nThe narrator attempts to calm Roderick by reading aloud The Mad Trist, a novel involving a knight named Ethelred who breaks into a hermit\u2019s dwelling in an attempt to escape an approaching storm, only to find a palace of gold guarded by a dragon. He also finds hanging on the wall a shield of shining brass of which is written a legend: that the one who slays the dragon wins the shield. With a stroke of his mace, Ethelred fells the dragon, who dies with a piercing shriek, and proceeds to take the shield, which falls to the floor with an unnerving clatter.\nAs the narrator reads of the knight\u2019s forcible entry into the dwelling, cracking and ripping sounds are heard somewhere in the house. When the dragon is described as shrieking as it dies, a shriek is heard, again within the house. As he relates the shield falling from off the wall, a reverberation, metallic and hollow, can be heard. Roderick becomes increasingly hysterical, and eventually exclaims that these sounds are being made by his sister, who was in fact alive when she was entombed and that Roderick knew that she was alive. The bedroom door is then blown open to reveal Madeline standing there. She falls violently in death upon her brother, who dies of his own terror. The narrator then flees the house, and, as he does so, notices a flash of light causing him to look back upon the House of Usher, in time to watch it break in two, the fragments sinking into the tarn.\nwill your ears bruise after piercing\ncan you drink beer when you pierce your tongue\ncan you go swimming with your tragus peircing\ndoes tongue piercings enhance oral sex on a man\nmy ears are hurting after ear pierced\nmy tragus has a bump\nlip piercing stud digging into the back of lip\ncan you go swimming in the beach water a couple days after you get your nose pierced?\ndo you have to stop dipping if you get your tounge pierced",

        "raw_content": "Real World Leadership \u2013 Part 3, Integrity\nBy Lt Bob Bramblet CJM, CCS\nI was in a weeklong management class where the instructor played the entire Band of Brothers series. He would then ask questions about the leadership styles depicted in the episode we had watched. Some folks may think that\u2019s a lackadaisical method of instruction, but I think in this particular case, it was brilliant as the series inadvertently depicted some of the finest examples of leadership styles in a convenient package.\nOne of the clearest examples shown was integrity. Integrity is a personal choice to hold oneself to consistent high moral and ethical standards. A good friend of mine once said to me, \u201cThe only thing I truly own is my integrity.\u201d This can be considered a core value of leadership. Integrity breeds trust, and it\u2019s very important to gain the trust of your subordinates. It is truthfulness in both word and action, no matter how uncomfortable.\nIntegrity in word means to communicate honestly in all cases. It could be during a performance review, an interview or just talking by the water cooler. Be truthful, not in an attempt to hurt feelings, but to make sure there is no possibility you are misunderstood and so it is known that you are being genuine and well intentioned.\nPerhaps the biggest foil to integrity within your communication is gossip. Gossip can never be well intentioned as it is, by definition, not based in fact. Engaging in gossip or subversive conversations directly undermines your credibility as a leader. Speaking negatively and without base about those who you work with and those who work for you is a detriment not only to you, but also to the entire environment you work in. As a leader, nothing will make you lose integrity faster than lying or saying negative things about others.\nIntegrity in action means to do the right thing consistently. Your subordinates and administration want you to make decisions, so make them by using the best moral standards and back it up afterwards. Those who act with integrity and treat others well will be viewed from the top down as someone who wants what is best for their agency, not just themselves. Never act in any way that can be misconstrued as unethical. My father, a retired Army Colonel, used to tell me, \u201cNever give the impression of impropriety\u201d which translates to, do not even act as if you are doing something wrong. Hold yourself accountable to not only your superiors, but also to those who report to you. Treat those around you fairly regardless of their status in your agency.\nNo one is perfect and it\u2019s impossible to get it right all the time. But, the more you are consistent, the people around you will know what to expect and they will trust you.\nLt Bob Bramblet is a 18 year veteran of the Lee County Sheriffs Office in Florida. He is a Certified Jail Manager (AJA) and a Certified Corrections Supervisor (ACA). Bob is currently assigned as the Intake Division Lieutenant, PREA Compliance Manager and Corrections FTO Manager for LCSO.",

        "raw_content": "US President Donald Trump is reportedly about to announce his new United Nations ambassador - a former Fox News host with no policymaking experience.\nIf confirmed by the Senate, she would take over from outgoing ambassador Nikki Haley, who announced her resignation in October without offering details on why. She does not have prior political or policy-making experience.\nThe nomination was first reported by Bloomberg News.\nThat means Nauert would wield less clout than her predecessor, both at the United Nations and within the administration, and as a result, would pose nowhere near the challenge to national security adviser John Bolton, White House chief of staff John Kelly or Pompeo.\nThe State Department declined to comment on the report.\nNauert speaks as U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo dialogues with reporters in his plane while flying from Panama to Mexico, Oct. 18. Nauert was then appointed acting undersecretary of state for public diplomacy and public affairs and was for a time the highest-ranking woman and fourth highest-ranking official in the building.\nShe became the spokeswoman to the State Department in 2017. But when White House officials told her they wanted her, she accepted. She was previously a network correspondent for ABC News.\nIt was unclear whether the United Nations ambassador post would remain part of the Cabinet, as it has been under Ms Haley, and there have been internal discussions about not having it remain a Cabinet-level position, one White House official said. She was in charge of the Global Engagement Center that fights extremist messaging from the Islamic State group and others, and she has a seat on the U.S. Agency for Global Media that oversees government broadcast networks such as Voice of America.\nNauert, 48, is an unorthodox choice for the United Nations role given that she had little experience in government or foreign policy before joining the administration in April 2017 after several years as an anchor and correspondent for Fox News, including on the \"Fox and Friends\" show watched by Trump. She met with Trump at the end of October, fueling speculation that she had emerged as the president's top choice for the role. All the while, she stayed in the good graces of the White House, even as Tillerson was increasingly on the outs.",

        "title": "Bail Bonds and Higher Rates of Court Appearance",
        "raw_content": "Bail Bonds: An Overview\nWhen someone is arrested, a bond amount is usually set by a judge of the court that would allow the defendant to be released from the jail, provided they swear to return to court for their scheduled court date. But since bond amounts aren\u2019t necessarily cheap, someone on behalf of the defendant would need to acquire the services of a bail bonding company. A bail bondsman will typically charge you a fee equal to 10% of the bond amount and assume the rest of the balance in the form of a surety bond, which acts as an insurance policy that the defendant will appear for their scheduled day in court. Basically, the posted bond is the agent\u2019s pledge that the defendant will either appear in court or he will pay the entire bond amount.\nThe Cash Correlation\nExperts have determined that you increase a defendant\u2019s likelihood of staying on the right side of the law by re-appearing in court when you utilize the services of a licensed bonding agent. That\u2019s because studies have shown a correlation between a defendant\u2019s reappearance in court when associated with money, generally in the form of a financially secured bond, the kind bonding agents offer.\nAdditional Bail Benefits\nWhen you compare appearance rates for defendants on financial release versus defendants released on their own recognizance, it\u2019s been shown that defendants who were released on a secured bond were more likely to be accountable and make all their scheduled court appearances. In addition to the obvious benefits to the defendant, there are benefits for the safety of the general public, as well. That\u2019s because an increase of appearance rates means that the defendants aren\u2019t out committing more crimes. Also, if a defendant does fail to reappear, their time as fugitive is cut shorter because bonding agents then employ the services of a bail enforcement agent (or bounty hunter) to recapture defendants.\nUse a Licensed Bonding Agent\nTherefore, a good and reputable bail bondsman provides not only the financial means with which to free someone from jail as quickly and as affordably as possible, but provides a necessary deterrent to help keep a defendant accountable and on the right side of the law, which ultimately benefits all involved.",

        "raw_content": "Let\u2019s imagine for a moment that you\u2019re the recipient of late-night phone call where a friend or family member tells you that they\u2019re in jail. Awash in a flood of emotions, you\u2019re sure to be a little bewildered and confused as to what to do next. Of course, by virtue of the fact that you were their first phone call, one of your very first emotions is sure to be the desire to help get them out of jail as quickly as possible. After all, that\u2019s probably why they called you in the first place. They felt confident in the fact that they could count on you to help them.\nBailing Someone Out\nSo, feeling the pressure to come through for them and help them in any way possible, you contact a bail bondsman and arrange to pay their bond amount, which is generally 10% of the court-set bail amount. The bail bond is a binding promise that you, as the indemnitor, are paying and signing on the defendant\u2019s behalf, stating that you will make sure that the defendant shows up in court at the scheduled date and time. So you put the cash up and sign the bond. Done, right?\nWhile most people might think that coming up with the cash is the hardest part of bailing someone out, it\u2019s also important to know what else you, as the indemnitor, are responsible for.\nCourt Dates and Appearances\nOnce a defendant has been released in anticipation of a future court date when their case will be heard before a judge, there are generally assorted appointments and appearances that a defendant must attend in order to fulfill the obligations of their bail agreement. It is ultimately up to you, the person who bailed them out, to make sure that they attend these court-mandated appointments. If they don\u2019t show up, believe it or not, youmight also suffer the consequences of the defendant\u2019s absence(s).\nFoot the Bill for the Defendant\u2019s Absences\nIf the defendant misses mandatory court dates and appointments, it\u2019s likely that the court will charge them fines or additional fees related to the absences. Ranging from individual fines, penalties, or assorted court costs all the way up to paying a recovery agent (bounty hunter) to bring the defendant to justice, the indemnitor\u2019s financial responsibility is serious and not to be taken lightly.\nFoot the Bill for the Defendant\u2019s Entire Bail Amount\nSo let\u2019s just say that the defendant has \u201cskipped bail,\u201d or not shown up for any of their appearances or court dates and you have no clue where they might be. The limit of your financial responsibility doesn\u2019t just stop at the costs discussed in the previous paragraph. Beyond fines, penalties, assorted court costs and more, the indemnitor is also ultimately responsible for the paying the entire bail amount if the defendant is nowhere to be found. In addition, if for some reason, the indemnitor offered up collateral in lieu of cash to pay the bond amount, the indemnitor would then lose the right to the collateral, allowing the bonding company to leverage the collateral to finance the cost of bringing the defendant to justice.\nJust as the law and the court system mean business, so should you when you\u2019re called on to help bail out a loved one. Money is but a mere portion of your responsibility. Given the anxiety of the circumstance, it\u2019s easy to pay and quickly sign all the paperwork in an effort to reduce the amount of time your loved one has to spend in jail. That\u2019s understandable. But be careful to find a wise and experienced bonding agent who can explain it all to you in clear and certain terms. A licensed bonding agent will discuss your options with you in an effort to help you make the best decision possible \u2014 for both you and your loved one.",

        "raw_content": "I have one rule with this question. Acapella Hymns cannot be one of the songs. The reason for that is that most people probably would choose a hymn for their final song, as the spiritual lyrics and melodies would be a beautiful thing to hear right before you went deaf. I like to make it harder on people though, so I strictly enforce the \u201cno hymn\u201d policy when I pose the question.\nMany times when I ask this question people are able to name a song quickly. Often times it causes a lot of reflection and deep thinking before the answer is given. Whatever they say, I always have eager anticipation for their choice. I believe that the answer they give is more telling than just the \u201cartist and song\u201d. Depending on the song they chose, it can be a stark introspective into their lives. When I ask this question, I always make sure that they tell why they picked that particular song. The replies have been across the board \u2013 it takes them back to a point in their lives they want to remember, the lyrics have significant meaning, the song was a presence during an emotional event, etc. Whatever the answer, it\u2019s always fascinating to ask the question. A great follow up is to actually play the song right after they give their answer and to listen to it together, sharing in a small part in their memories.\nThe song I always choose is \u201cWhen You Come Back Down\u201d by Nickel Creek. It\u2019s a song I\u2019ve referenced in earlier blog posts that holds extreme significance for me. The lyrics are beautiful and meaningful. The music is chalk full of emotion. Most of all though, it allows me recall parts of my pasts that detail both sad and joyful part of my life. If I were to ever go deaf, that song would be the last thing I want to hear.\nWhat about you? What would your \u201clast\u201d song be? It\u2019s a great question that\u2019s fun to ask, but is even better to receive an answer.",

        "raw_content": "I\u2019m really glad to have found you, you are an inspiration!\nI am a fifty-year-old woman recently diagnosed with cancer of the breast. I am from London, England, living and studying in NYC. I have a second opinion today at Sloan Kettering. I am really grappling with something that I would like your advice on as a father, practitioner, and general wise man.\nI have not yet told my beloved 77-year-young father, who lives in London and also has cancer (prostate metastasized to the bones), or my mother. I am really struggling in my heart as to whether to tell him and my mother about my diagnosis.\nI feel bad keeping it from him as we have an extremely close relationship. I can\u2019t be open when he asks how I am, and I imagine he would want to support me, but on the other hand he is 77 and fighting his own battle with cancer. I am worried if I tell him he will spiral downwards and his health would suffer. He loves me so much and I couldn\u2019t forgive myself if that happened. I also have two brothers and a sister. One brother knows about me but the others don\u2019t.\nDo you have any pearls of wisdom to offer? I have been looking up how to get to Woodbridge, CT from New York to attend your monthly ECaP support group. I wish you did things here in NYC, too.\nMy suggestion is to let your heart make up your mind. The problem with keeping your diagnosis a secret is that you have to lie and make up stories to maintain the secret. In the long run, the secret can make your self-esteem plummet and cause a heightening of anxiety making it much more difficult to manage your emotional life. It is usually always better to be open and not place the extra burden on yourself of having to maintain a false impression. Share your diagnosis with your whole family and let them love and support you.\nAt the age of 90, my mother did better when we told her our troubles because she had the wisdom to share from her life. Also, when she could offer us help she would not focus on her problems.\nSo if you choose to tell your father about your breast cancer, when you talk to him, ask him to share his wisdom from a lifetime of experience. Remember, you are a survivor.\nWhy can\u2019t I visualize? I can\u2019t ever remember being able to visualize. Is there anything I can do to help with this?\nYou may not be a visual person. Your other senses may be stronger, so think about them. If, for example, you are one of those people who has a very discerning \u201cnose,\u201d imagine yourself somewhere where you are relaxing surrounded by your favorite smells.\nAll you have to do is imagine yourself where you want to be with aromas, sounds, things that you get pleasure from touching or wearing because of the way they feel\u2014like silk, and finally something visual. Perhaps you like photographs of colorful markets.\nBrowse through my CDs and pick one that appeals to you for visualization. It will help you use visualization.\nI have just read your book A Book of Miracles and I was very taken by it. It left me with a feeling of peace, and I do not recall having had that feeling before when reading a book on healing. I have never read any of your other books, so I have ordered some more here in Denmark. I do so wish to follow the best path for myself and my family.\nI have two young boys 9 and 14, and I need to summon up all my courage to keep fighting. Five years ago I was operated for ovarian cancer. I was cured but have since been very frightened that it would come back. Last year it turned out that the doctors had been watching me for some time without my knowledge (this is partly my own fault as I did not want to know my marker values). However, I had to have chemo again and then they left it at that. They would not give me a post-treatment PET or CT scan. When I went for a check-up five months later they did give me a scan, and it turned out that it is now in my lymph system.\nI have since, on my own accord, sought out the best hospital and treatment for me right now and have started treatment. I have met with doctors who are so kind that I had to pinch my arm, and at the same time I know that they are very good (and daring, too). I have had two chemo treatments and feel a lot better. However, I find it so difficult to keep up my hopes, although I look and feel good.\nI am frightened for my boys, and I really want to have the courage to believe that I shall be here for them. They are both at such tender ages and it tortures me to think of leaving them. My husband is very supportive and he really is an angel. I really want to try my best to have the courage to keep fighting. I do wish to live my life in the present and love it, but I am also so, so sad. It is a tough treatment and I thought I was cured. If you could send me just three words of courage, I would be ever so grateful. I keep thinking of the lady who said to you, \u201cI feel good when I am here, but I need to feel good at home too!\u201d\nI wish I lived in the States and could see you, but I live in Denmark.\nWe spoke in Denmark years ago. There are people there who know me, too. I suggest that you read Love, Medicine & Miracles and my recent book, The Art of Healing: Uncovering Your Inner Wisdom and Potential for Self-Healing.\nLots of mothers stay alive because of the strong feelings you express about leaving your children. But my suggestion to you is that you need to become your own child and love yourself, your body, and your life. Let yourself feel loved and your body\u2019s immune system will respond to help you heal.\nThis is a time to love your life because it is giving you a chance to teach your children about how to live with difficulties\u2014and how much they are loved. You then become immortal through your love of yourself and of them.\nYou have the potential to heal. I know that from what you shared. Another thing to read about on my website that will help you is The Immune Competent Personality Test. You will find it listed right at the top of the first page under \u201cQuick Links.\u201d Learn to say \u201cno\u201d to doing anything that doesn\u2019t make you happy.\nAnd, of course, let your heart make up your mind.\nI recently chose to leave the health care institution for which I have worked 25 years as an RN. There were several reasons that I left. My most recent position was in research, and in the midst of dealing with a rather hostile co-worker, I realized that research wasn\u2019t for me.\nIn fact, I am quite disheartened by mainstream medicine and how patients are NOT treated. When my sister was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, there was no time to think. My sister was like a robot. She did everything the doctor told her to do. Of course, I was always sending her information and websites, etc., as loved ones will do in this situation. I backed off after a while, realizing that it\u2019s her journey and she has to do what she feels is right for her.\nI feel that all we are doing is feeding people prescription medicines and not addressing them as human beings. I know there is a place for mainstream medicine, but I\u2019m looking for other avenues as a health care professional. Do you have any suggestions?\nLook for integrative or holistic physicians and naturopaths to work for. Where do you live?\nIt is good that you realized it really isn\u2019t your place to tell your sister what to do, but you can do the most important thing for her\u2014you can listen to her. Eventually she will hear her own words and they may open her eyes to alternative ways to heal.\nYou can give her information but not pressure her to use it. She can decide what she wants to read, but she might be open to two of my books\u2014Love, Medicine & Miracles and my latest, The Art of Healing: Uncovering Your Inner Wisdom and Potential for Self-Healing.\nThis entry was posted in Parenting & Family, Q & A with Bernie, Relationships and tagged A Book of Miracles, breast cancer, Immune Competent Personality Test, Love Medicine and Miracles, ovarian cancer, reparent yourself, sharing a diagnosis, The Art of Healing, visualization.

        "raw_content": "What if I said to you instead of studying before a test, try studying after it as you might have more chance of passing.\nHuh? You probably think I am mad to even suggest such an extraordinary concept, but please, hear me out on this.\nIf the nature of space and time wasn\u2019t already bizarre and confusing enough to freak you out, a study done by psychologist Professor Daryl Bem just might be the thing to do the trick.\nA social psychologist at Cornell University, Professor Daryl Bem is most famous for developing his self-perception theory, which suggests that we formulate our attitudes and opinions by watching our own behavior and figuring out what caused it after the fact.\nThis is directly the opposite of what had been most widely accepted, which is that our attitudes determined our behaviors\u2013 in other words, he challenged the chronological order of our own attitude formation.\nSo it should be no surprise that he also delves into what mainstream science would call parapsychology, and that his findings flew in the face of conventional ideologies related to time.\nHis experiments, which are simple and repeatable, suggest that time may not flow in a strictly unidirectional manner.\nRather than walking along a one-way road that begins in the present and ends in the future, we may be caught in a two-way street, where the past and the future can influence one another.\n[dropshadowbox align=\u201dnone\u201d effect=\u201dlifted-both\u201d background_color=\u201d#F2F5A9\u2033 border_width=\u201d1\u2033 border_color=\u201d#dddddd\u201d ]In short, his research poses a question that mainstream science finds uncomfortable: could time be leaking?\nHis article, titled \u201cFeeling The Future,\u201d was published in The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology in the year 2010.\nHis research, which revolves around the ideas of precognition and premonition, suggests that normal, everyday people are influenced by experiences they will have in the future.\nMany critics attempted to tear down his research before it was even published, but Professor Daryl Bem had established himself as a respected presence in the scientific community long before pursuing premonition and precognition.\nThough he was known to challenge what was accepted as the truth, he had never been considered a man prone to fits of delusion.\nSo what does the research say? Let\u2019s look at the experiments:\nThe first experiment was a quiz taken on a series of computers. For this study, 100 students at Cornell (50 of whom were female, and 50 of whom were male), were told to sit in front of the computers for an experiment testing for ESP. First, they had to answer a few short questions.\nThen an image of two curtains placed side-by-side would show up on the screen\u2013 behind one curtain was nothing, and behind the other curtain was a picture.\nThe students were instructed to pick whichever curtain they felt had the picture behind it. Some of the pictures were pornographic in nature, while others were neutral.\n[dropshadowbox align=\u201dnone\u201d effect=\u201dlifted-both\u201d background_color=\u201d#F2F5A9\u2033 border_width=\u201d1\u2033 border_color=\u201d#dddddd\u201d ]What were the results? For the students who were shown erotic pictures, their accuracy was 53%, which is above chance.\nFor students who saw neutral images, the hit rate was only 49%. According to Bem, this suggests that sexual arousal may be strong enough to pass back in time, encouraging the students to pick the right curtain. Even weirder?\nThe recorded physiological changes occurred two or three seconds before the students saw the erotic images!\nThis isn\u2019t an entirely new idea, as many people who have narrowly avoided fatal accidents report feeling a strong sense of impending doom that causes them to cancel their plans.\nIf emotions can \u201cbleed\u201d back into the present, this may also explain why some people claim to sense when bad things are going to happen to their loved ones.\nThe second study showed 100 Cornell students a list of 48 easy, simple nouns in a sequence for about three seconds each.\nAfter the end of the list, they were given a memory test to see how many of the words they still remembered. Then the computer randomly picked 24 words and instructed the students to continue studying them after the test was over.\nThe weird part? Upon examining the test results, a bizarre pattern showed up: the students consistently remembered the 24 words they studied after the test better than the other 24.\nThis indicates that practicing the set of words after the test retroactively made the students perform better.\nThis of course becomes a mind distorter because if this is true, what happens if you plan to study for a test after sitting, then pass with a great mark so don\u2019t end up studying after?\nYour mark isn\u2019t going to change so maybe that is what you would have got anyway and if you had forced yourself to study after you might have got a better result.\nThe problem is of course how could you ever know unless you had two people that both had exactly the same knowledge about something, and one studied after and the other one didn\u2019t and then their results were compared.\nConventional wisdom asserts that once you\u2019ve taken a test, it\u2019s too late for studying to provide any help whatsoever. Bem\u2019s research suggests otherwise.\nYour first reaction may be to point out the relatively small difference (53% versus 49%) and argue that it\u2019s not significant enough to be worthwhile, but it\u2019s important to remember that this is only very early research.\nAs scientists continue to experiment and refine their techniques in exploring the impact of the future on the present, we will get a better idea of just how much of tomorrow leaks into today, how we can use it to our advantage, and ultimately, what this all means for humanity.\nWhat do you think? Could time really be leaking?",

They were a well-established coin store in the West Seattle Junction for 28 years.

They had dabbled in radio. Their advertising had scratched out modest results, but nothing was working as well as they had hoped. If they were going to stay ahead of the competition, they needed to take their advertising to the next level.\n\u201cWhile working with Bigger Picture, West Seattle Coins went from $5 to $20 million in annual revenue and Bellevue Rare Coins went from $0 to $65 million.\u201d\n- Ryan Hoolahan, West Seattle Coins | Bellevue Rare Coins\nContact us for a complete list of clients, partners, and references.\nSome of our brightest inspirations have hit us at work on Friday after 8:00 p.m. Which is weird, because who stays that late on a Friday night?

        "raw_content": "The Federation, The Coach, Drugs, and Nani\nThe Portuguese Anti-Doping Agency (ADoP) has suspended Portuguese national coach, Carlos Queiroz, from coaching for six months. After an almost two month long legal battle, the agency found Queiroz guilty of obstructing the drug testing of Portuguese players prior to the world cup. The punishment also comes after the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) levied its own punishment against the coach by suspending him for the first two European Championship qualifying games against Cyprus and Norway. The Portuguese manager allegedly became irate and violent after anti-doping agents interrupted a scheduled practice to administer the tests.\nWhat makes this case peculiar is the fact that the incident did not come to light until Portugal got knocked out of the world cup by eventual champions, Spain. The investigation was also announced while Queiroz was vacationing in Mozambique, and before he was given any warning of the potential charges.\nAccording to sources close to the Portuguese manager, the charges materialized after Portugal fell short of achieving its world cup objectives, and the FPF was looking for a reason to \u201cjustify\u201d his dismissal, thus avoiding a breach of contract fee approaching three million Euros. The FPF has countered the accusation, claiming that the team reached its objective of progressing past the group stages.\nOf course, Queiroz, has not remained passive, and has lined up some of European football\u2019s biggest heavy-weights to argue in his defence, such as Sir Alex Ferguson and Luis Figo. Queiroz was Ferguson\u2019s right-hand man at Manchester United for six years, and was responsible for Cristiano Ronaldo\u2019s signing and development. It is, in fact, player development that has won Queiroz the most accolades. He was invaluable to Figo\u2019s career, and coached Portugals under 21 squads to two world cup wins in 89 and 91. Figo, who played for Queiroz at club and national levels, has remained quiet about his deposition. Ferguson, on the other hand, has vocalized his criticism of the FPF, and has defended Queiroz vehemently to the media.\nNani with DJ Charlie Salema in Southern Portugal (photo: bigsoccerhead)\nFerguson\u2019s defence of Queiroz is no surprise since the two have remained close since the latter took over Portugal\u2019s national team. However, there is another piece to this case that has been ignored by the media, and that is the mysterious injury that kept Nani out of the world cup. According to FPF doctors, Nani broke his clavicle while performing a bicycle kick during one of Portugal\u2019s last practices before leaving for South Africa. Nevertheless, Nani was taken to South Africa only to be sent back the next day. Upon his arrival in Lisbon, Nani was seen carrying two suitcases in the airport without any visible sign of discomfort. There were also reports that the United winger forwent medical attention and spent his \u201cable-bodied\u201d vacation in the South of Portugal. One eye-witness I spoke to claims he saw Nani shortly after his return from South Africa moving around very comfortably, saying \u201cI\u2019ve broken my clavicle, and it was a while before I took my arm brace off, and it sure was a long time before I could lift things.\u201d\nQueiroz\u2019 run-in with ADoP could soon unearth some of the talk surrounding Nani at the time of his injury. The cloud of secrecy that surrounded the winger and his injury fed into the rumours that he had not really injured himself, and that the FPF was hiding something from the media. Could it be a coincidence that Nani\u2019s injury and Queiroz\u2019 confrontation with ADoP happened only a few days apart? There could be an answer soon as Queiroz is appealing his case to FIFA as well as the Court of Sports Arbitration.\nCategory: FIFA International World Cup Tags: FIFA, Nani, Portugal, Queiroz, World Cup\n\u2190 The Return of the Number 10 I\u2019m Wesley Sneijder, Remember Me? \u2192",

They are a significant component of the marine nitrogen cycle and an important primary producer in many areas of the ocean, but are also found in habitats other than the marine environment; in particular, cyanobacteria are known to occur in both freshwater and hypersaline inland lakes. They are found in almost every conceivable environment, from oceans to fresh water to bare rock to soil.\nCyanobacteria are the only group of organisms that are able to reduce nitrogen and carbon in aerobic conditions, a fact that may be responsible for their evolutionary and ecological success. Certain cyanobacteria also produce cyanotoxins. This new book presents a broad variety of international research on this important organism.\nLINK2 (DIRECT LINK)\nPosted in: BIOCHEMISTRY, BIOTECHNOLOGY, BOOKS, HANDBOOKS Posted on: Wednesday, September 25, 2013",

        "title": "The Art of the Garden \u2013 The Renaissance \u2013 The Trayned Bandes of Bristol",
        "raw_content": "This week, our assistant director (and resident Trayn\u2019d Bandes gardener) Chris Budnick puts his vast knowledge of gardening to use, as he discusses the evolution of gardening throughout Europe during the Renaissance.\nAs Europe entered the Renaissance and recovered from the Middle Ages, so too did the concept of gardening. Here again is seen the effect that general prosperity has on the use of gardens. The cultural rebirth of Europe, spreading outwards from Italy, was accompanied by an economic revival as well. Increased trade, communications, and ideas all came together to help nurture society as a whole, and provided a fertile bed for the gardening arts.\nDuring the Renaissance, Europe looked backwards to the \u201cgolden age\u201d of Ancient Rome and Greece. They copied art styles, architecture, and many other aspects of culture that had been lost during the centuries between. One should not then be surprised to find that the earliest gardens constructed for means other than subsistence were created where the Renaissance began, in Italy.\nOne of the earliest to write about what would become known as Renaissance gardens was Pietro de\u2019 Crescenzi. He\nThe Villa Medici in Fiesole (north of Florence), created around 1455-1461 by Giovanni de\u2019 Medici. (Gardens in Tuscany)\nwrote a treatise called Opus Ruralium Commodium which outlined principles of a proper garden layout. He wrote about geometric proportion and the ornamentation of gardens with trees and shrubs trimmed into shapes designed to mimic roman architecture.\nFollowing in the footsteps of their Roman forbearers these gardens were created for both pleasure and to display the power of the wealthy. Whether for public use or private, these gardens were a message to all that the wealthy had the power to create great works, while the poor did not. An excellent example of this is the Medici family, a ruling dynasty in Florence Italy that used the construction of gardens to advertise their wealth and add to their reputation.\nA lunette (painting in a semicircular architectural space) of Villa Castello in Florence, Italy, by Giusto Utens (1598) (Gardens in Tuscany)\nDonato Bramante, an Italian architect of the late 1400\u2019s further wrote about proper garden styling. He was one of the first to focus on the perspective which a garden should be viewed from. In his opinion, the villa or household should be the midpoint, from which the view of a garden is seen. From there, a garden should expand symmetrically outwards. This idea would become one of the staple features of Renaissance garden design.\nHowever, gardens also represented something more. They represented the idea that human beings could reshape nature to their will, more perfectly than their Creator had. They were symbols that mankind had the ability to reorder nature as they saw fit, denying the downtrodden position that civilization had been forced into for centuries. This is reflected in artwork of the period, showing that nature is not a perfect creation. Rather, it is the perfect inert material of creation, which mankind had the authority and duty to refine.\nRenaissance Europe looked back to many sources for inspiration to recreate the classics of Rome and Greece. One such author they drew upon was Vitruvius, a roman artist and architect of the 1st century b.c.e.. Vitruvius held to three ideals, called the vitruvian virtues, when planning a building of any kind. He stated that all good constructs have the qualities of firmitas, utilitas, and venustas (solidity, usefulness, and beauty). The reader might recognize this name, whose ideas on proportion of parts to the whole inspired Leonardo Da Vinci\u2019s drawing of the Vitruvian Man.\nAs the Renaissance spread outward from Italy, so too did the idea of the garden, though the migration of ideas was not always hand in hand with peaceful trade. Returning from was in the late 1400\u2019s, King Charles VIII returned from war in Italy. He brought back with him ideas and people. As with many popular cultural movements, French renaissance gardens started with the upper class and moved downwards. Charles VIII had several gardens commissioned. Two monarchs later, Francis I was still building gardens. The Ch\u00e2teau de Blois featured gardens of flowers, fruit, and vegetables. It featured the very first orangerie (a building in which to winter potted fruit trees) in France, which survives to modern day.\nThe Garden of Love at the Ch\u00e2teau de Villandry in the Loire Valley, France. (Chateau)\nThe ideas of Italy continued to influence and refine the French gardens. These were designed with symmetrical paths, rows of trees and geometrical beds of plants. Pools of water were common and the use of statuary in gardens was exceedingly popular, although writers of the time warned against the use of \u2018obscene\u2019 statuary. Once again drawing upon the inspiration of classical authors, gardens were placed below the place of residence such that they could be looked down upon as easily as they could be walked through.\nThe gardens of the French revolution would continue to develop and would spread to England. These two countries, while often at odds with each other, shared a common history which made the adoption of French gardening styles quite straightforward. Yet much of France maintained a Mediterranean climate, or close enough to one that their gardens most resembled the Italians. With England the differences in climate would come to define the English garden as a style and passion all its own.",

For further information, click here.\nThe mandate of the Austrian Parliamentary Budget Office (PBO) is to support the National Council in the budgetary process, in consulting and enacting budget laws and exercising its oversight role. Its key tasks are: \u2013 To support the Budget Committee in form of written expertise, analysis and short studies on budgetary matters presented by the government according to budget law \u2013 To support other parliamentary committees regarding impact assessment of new legislation \u2013 To consult especially on performance and gender\u2026\n10th anniversary of the Inter-Ministerial Working Group on Gender Mainstreaming/Budgeting\nCelebrating 10 years of existence of the Inter-Ministerial Working Group on Gender Mainstreaming/Budgeting, a study was carried out. Its findings and conclusions would be considered in a Council Decision on GM issued in 2011. The latter points to the necessity of Structural implementation of Gender Mainstreaming in the ministries (e.g. via management meetings with GM officers); Further education and training as well as awareness-raising via information; Legal implementation: Gender Mainstreaming must be considered in legal decision-making processes.

In fact, it calls for the consideration of Gender Budgeting in all budgeting activities.\nGB goes University\nIn 2002 the University of Vienna organised a lecture on \u201cWomen and Budgets\u201d. The contents adressed in the course of this lecture would be published as a book afterwards\n3rd Action programme on men and women\nFrom 1991-1995 the Commission launched the 3rd Action programme on men and women to promote gender equality.\nThird UN World Conference on Women\n1400 official delegates from 157 countries participated in the UN\u2019s Third World Conference on Women in Nairobi. It represented the culmination of ten years of work on gender empowerment. The Forward-Looking Strategies as well as an Action Plan, adopted by the conference, provided a blueprint for action until 2000. Also, the termi Gender Mainstreaming was used for the first time to refer to women\u2019s values and rights.\nAdvisory Committee on Equal Opportunities for Women and Men\nIn 1981 the Commission established an Advisory Committee on Equal Opportunities for Women and Men. It assists the Commission in formulating and implementing measures targeted at equal opportunities for women and men as well as continuous exchange of best practices and experiences from the member states and other stakeholders with regard thereto (see Commission Decision 82/43/EEC, which was amended in 1995).\nGB is \u201cborn\u201d\nIn academic literature, the 1980s are referred to as the birth years of Gender Budgeting when first Gender Budgeting projects were implemented in Australia.\nFirst UN Voluntary Fund for Women\nThe UN establishes a Voluntary Fund for the UN-Decade for Women \u2013 VFDW (by UN Resolution 31/133 of 16 December 1976).

Whatever the music plays, I guess! Perhaps I'm going to have to learn how to do improv. ;-) I was going to email all my local friends and tell them to get their butts out there and see me but since I'm on webmail at the moment I sadly don't have access to my email addys unless I happen to have it memorized or someone has emailed me in the last two days. Sooo.... I couldn't really pass the word along too well.\nMark your calendars though, because the BIG deal performance that you don't want to miss, with the new outfits and a new routine is:\nRakkasah West\ntroupe is \"Arabian Jewels with Raks Padawan\"\nwe are performing at 8pm on Saturday March 15th (for 15 minutes)\non the East Stage at the fairgrounds in Vallejo\nthis is one not to miss!!!\nThough if you are local by all means come on down to Stockton on Monday and say hi.\nI had in mind to go work on three new scrim projects today but sadly was unable to use the scope today. Reason 472 why I can't wait to get my own. Hopefully they'll be home tomorrow! I AM working on that horse portrait (still! JC I swear I will finish it!) but I keep forgetting to photograph it in the mornings, and it's such a dark colored image I can't get a good photo at night.\nThe computer should be back in about a week. Yay!\nMy cruise control has stopped working again. The cruise control and I have had sort of an on-again-off-again relationship over the last 13 years. As in sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Like for months or even years at a time it won't work. Psh no I am not going to get it fixed. I can live without it. I'll bet at least a third of the time I've had that car the cruise control hasn't worked. Heck, maybe even half.\nI'm going to Reno, baby! Woo hoo! I'm super excited. I will be visiting the \"Guns and Reno\" show. A super talented friend of mine is one of the exhibitors there, and I am also looking forward to meeting a whole bunch of people with whom I have communicated on line about scrimshaw and engraving and whatnot. I am really looking forward to meeting everyone and making some contacts. I should probably bring some samples of my work, maybe I'll wear the dragon necklace. Would it be overkill to walk around in my \"Katherine Plumer Fine Art\" sweatshirt? Hmm. I tried to rustle up some friends to make the drive with me but nobody wanted to go, so, once again, it's all me. Looks like the weather will be fine though.\nI thought I had one other thing to talk about but it must not be that important. Off I go!",

I am formally declaring 2015 the year of Lulu. In addition to this performance it will simulcast from the Met and stream from Munich.\nThe next opera is As One by Laura Kaminsky, an opera that premiered last fall at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. And the venue is the Oakland Metro, 630 3rd st, a punk rock venue near Jack London Square.\nThe third and last opera is billed as Ulysses but is usually called Il ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria by Claudio Monteverdi. This opera has a very cool contralto role. It's venue is American Steel Studios at 1960 Mandela Parkway. This is sort of an architectural tour of Oakland.\nAfter abandoning El Cerrito High School, West Edge has been homeless. I am very much attracted to this creative solution.

        "raw_content": "Posted in: Finding a career July 12th, 2016\nSummertime is when all the music teachers and students disperse to various music camps, institutes, and conferences. The music teaching world is very local. The summer music world is location-independent.\nWe are in Claremont, Calif. right now, for the National Cello Institute, which is more international than national and my son has so many friends from Australia that he\u2019s started talking with their accent.\nAs he plays his solo here, everyone assumes he wants to be a professional cellist. We all know that being a professional musician is a goal against long odds. And as Seth Godin wrote a whole book to explain (one of my favorites), the only things worth doing are things that are so hard you almost can\u2019t stand the odds.\nBecause I\u2019m a career coach, I think things like what if he loses a finger? What if he joins the Peace Corps? What if he just simply changes his mind? I want him to be ready.\nSometimes he tests me, \u201cWhat if I want to stop playing cello?\u201d\nI know the correct answer, so I say it: \u201cYou can stop whenever you want. I only want you to play cello if that\u2019s what you want to do. I love you no matter what you choose.\u201d\nI think he asks me that to make sure he has a choice. So I add explicit options and tell him that he could sell anything.\nMy older son says, \u201cMom, don\u2019t tell him that. He\u2019ll be a drug dealer.\u201d\nMy husband says, \u201cI know you think he\u2019d be good at sales, but sometimes I wonder. The only thing I see him selling right now is himself.\u201d\nSo I had an idea. I decided we\u2019ll do a sales aptitude test so that both my son and I can relax a little bit about cello. He will still practice piano and cello four hours a day. He will still travel all over the country for lessons and performances. But all that will feel less risky because we will know he can fall back on sales.\nI tell him, \u201cWe are taking a field trip to Staples in Los Angeles.\u201d\n\u201cDude! I love the Lakers.\u201d\n\u201cNo. The store. Staples is a store.\u201d\n\u201cYou are going to sell office supplies.\u201d\nHe complains but then he stops complaining when he sees that I\u2019m going to be paying a lot of attention to him and it will be like a performance.\nWe bring the cello into the store. It\u2019s two hundred years old and it is very sensitive to changes in temperature so we never leave it in the car.\nYou know that experiment people did in school where kids carry around an egg as if it\u2019s a baby in order to understand how much work it is to have a baby? That\u2019s what I feel like we do with the cello. But it\u2019s more like we have quadruplets.\nWe go to phone chargers. I tell my son he\u2019s selling the Dual Device Rapid Car charger. He says he wants to sell one to me because he wants one for our car.\nI tell him I\u2019ll buy him one if he can make a sale to someone else. \u201cFind someone looking at chargers and tell them why this one is great.\u201d\nPeople tell me that my son is a great cellist because he\u2019s fearless. I can\u2019t tell what that means in music, but I can see it here.\nHe walks up to a woman my age and he tells her she should buy the charger. \u201cThis will make your kids love you,\u201d he says. \u201cAlso, my mom told me if I could get someone to buy one of these then she\u2019d buy me one.\u201d\nThe woman looks over at me.\nI am dying. I am pretty much the worst sales person ever. Selling is about making a connection with people, which means you have to care about them. This is why sales is impossible for me but my son is incredible.\nThe woman bought the charger. Well, at least she put it in her shopping cart. I gave my son credit for that.\nI told him his next mission is to sell a chair.\nI tell him he can pick any game he wants if he sells a chair.\nI give him a choice of chairs. I tell him, \u201cYou do best selling when you sell something you like.\u201d\nHe picks a pretty gross looking blue swivel, gives it a whirl and waits for someone to approach.\nHe learns another lesson in sales which is that it\u2019s much harder to sell a product with no leads than if you have a sales funnel in place. He summarizes this lesson during a spin: \u201cMom, no one is buying chairs right now. I need something else.\u201d\nSo we go to the pens. I hand him a 6-pack of pen style highlighters, saying, \u201cSell these and I\u2019ll give you any game you want.\u201d\nHe examines them and says, \u201cI\u2019ll buy these. Sold. Now you buy me a game.\u201d\nI like his spunk. I like that he sort of cheated because it\u2019s something I would do. Cutting corners is a great career skill. It\u2019s a sign of a winner.\nI make him buy the pens. Then we pick out a game. And in the game aisle, someone approaches him.\n\u201cIs that your cello?\u201d\n\u201cI used to play cello. How long have you been playing?\u201d Dragging a cello with you is a great conversation starter\u2014I recommend it if you feel shy at parties.\nMy son chats a bit more and then explains that I\u2019m making him sell stuff to ensure he has a backup career if cello doesn\u2019t work out.\nThe guy loves the story. He says, \u201cI\u2019ll buy something.\u201d\nAnother sales lesson: people buy stuff because they like you.\nMy son says, \u201cCan you buy these highlighters?\u201d\nThe guy says sure, and without even asking me about how this affects our deal, my son picks out a second game. I buy it.\nLater, I fish the empty game box out of the garbage and put it on my nightstand. It\u2019ll be a great reminder that it\u2019s fine for him to go after his cello dreams because he has a backup plan as well.\nGreat post, Penelope! And great idea with the back up plan. I think all parents should do something similar, although I believe it is easier to choose between cello and sells (especially when one loves cello), than between medicine and architecture (especially when one is great at art and at biology).\nAnyway, having choices is a good \u201cproblem\u201d to have, so I just wish this to every teenager!\nPosted by Eva on July 12, 2016 at 2:10 pm | permalink |\nJust found your blog.

Apparently you need people to understand that you\u2019ve done well in your career and you have a lot of money. Some of your posts are mildly entertaining but here\u2019s what I know about you and what I\u2019ve learned from reading your posts over the last couple years. You are in an abusive relationship with an abusive man who has demonstrated abusive tendencies in front of your children and yet you have convinced yourself to stay in this marriage because divorce is bad for kids! Really you\u2019re supposed to be talking about business stuff and every now and then you can clean little tidbits from what you say and there were a few morsels in this post. But for some reason you have a need to show everybody that you are Queen of the Universe and most of your posts really don\u2019t stick or make a difference. Sorry to be so blunt but I\u2019m pretty sure it\u2019s not going to upset your day.\nPosted by sherry on July 12, 2016 at 2:22 pm | permalink |\nWhy would you even write this?

My oldest son went into IT. My next son is studying medical lab science. My youngest thinks he wants to study mathematics. I did that and loved it.

My parents only saw how I wasn\u2019t like them, which they found endlessly disappointing. My dad, who is dominating and charismatic, tried to make me good at math and finance. I can\u2019t do math, but I can see that wallpaper in a foliage print would look great on our ceiling. And luckily I found a guy to marry who is willing to see what I see, so he lets me wallpaper the ceiling in our foyer. (Well, I don\u2019t physically do the wallpapering\u2026 and actually once I\u2019ve picked which one I want my fiance buys it and arranges the guy to come install it. We\u2019re a great team.)\nWhen we go to visit my parents, my mom will get drunk and tell me I\u2019m just like my dad and nothing like her, even though I inherited all her insecurities. And maybe her sense of humor too\u2013 my mom is really funny. Under-the-radar funny. But she doesn\u2019t see that about herself, so I don\u2019t think she can see where I get it from when I make her laugh.\nThere\u2019s a lot they still don\u2019t (can\u2019t, won\u2019t) see, but I think my parents are beginning to see the vision I have for my life. It took me a long time to see it myself.\nPosted by Harriet May on July 12, 2016 at 4:44 pm | permalink |\nYour son doesn\u2019t have to play the cello as his career. I\u2019ve been playing the piano for two years and I\u2019ll never tire of it, but I couldn\u2019t make a career of it even if I paid deaf people to listen.\nPlaying the cello, and especially at his level, is its own reward. Seriously. If he can get paid to do it, even better, but if not, it doesn\u2019t matter. Making music helps me stay sane.\nAs for his career, meanwhile, I was almost 50 before I figured out what mine was.

Yes, he was a good architect but his true brilliance was in how he sold himself. Even though there were many equally, if not more, talented designers in his day, he promoted himself as the greatest architect that ever lived. He believed this himself and he made the rest of the world believe it as well. He suffered many setbacks in his career, yet could always smooth-talk his way back.\nCreative thinking, moxie, and a vivacious drive\u2026that\u2019s what it takes. Your son will do well.\nPosted by avant garde designer on July 13, 2016 at 8:52 am | permalink |\nI didn\u2019t know this about him. It makes sense, though.\nI always resist helping my son do social media. I tell myself he needs to live his life. I cannot help him with stuff like that because it will be too much of me being a Svengali or however you say it.\nBut then I think, well, I\u2019m not a musician and I can\u2019t really help him in that regard, but I know how to self-promote (maybe that is all I know \u2014 it worries me, believe me) so maybe I should teach him that. Maybe we should do a cello YouTube channel together.\nWell. But wait. I can barely manage to write on this blog regularly so how would I do a YouTube channel for him as well??? I don\u2019t know\u2026 your insight about Frank Loyd Wright gets me thinking, though.\nThanks for the interesting and enlightening post. Have you had your son try playing cello for a crowd, in large, crowded, public areas, to enjoy their feedback and \u201csell\u201d his skill? Also, has he tried to make any innovative YouTube Cello videos, to create a following? Thanks again for your blog posts.\nPosted by Mark L. on July 13, 2016 at 10:10 am | permalink |\nDo you know what\u2019s funny about that? My son played his cello across the street from the Art Institute in Chicago and he made $30 in fifteen minutes. And that became his standard for payment. As in:\nMe: If you weed the corn I\u2019ll pay you $15\nHim: Why would I do that? I can make more money playing cello!\nSo I think it actually gave him a skewed idea that cellists really rake in the dough.\nAs you travel to big cities, let your son perform in some of those open public spaces. Him, his cello and a crowd, with his personality, and he can earn a few buck s too, I think it will be a perfect learning and enjoyable experience.\nWhy would you start the Youtube Channel for him? It is an idea for him to pursue if he wants and he can learn about how to start a channnel and make it successful, and ask for help or directional guidance from you, when needed. Again, as it grows, he can learn if, how, and how hard it may be for his channel to make money. But he is a showman, so it may be another good fit.\nI asked Andy what advice he would give your son for selling. He said not to worry about his ability to sell. It\u2019s the ability to c0mmunicate with others. Reading books on how to talk to people (like zigzag ziglar,ect). Learning how to spot why an ad does what they do, how they worded it and how to read people. He also suggested a business degree because the pay goes up. Although he has been successful without one it was harder. Here\u2019s the thing, when you watch an esfp you truly believe they like everyone. But if you can get them to \u201cturn off\u201d they only like a few people and view themselves as friendless frequently. When the seeds/food salesmen come around have him go out and watch them. If they are good your son will never see them \u201cturn off\u201d. Bad ones you see it the minute they turn around. Observing people and interacting is fun. You already know many of the social rules. Point them out to him. It won\u2019t be a struggle for him to pick them up and use them well. Also, if there is a fund raiser he could do selling door to door or infront of a store that will teach quickly. There are scripts to learn with those. Great experience.\nPosted by Sarah on July 13, 2016 at 10:22 am | permalink |\nSuch interesting advice! And it rings true to me. And the bottom line is that if someone is in the right job for them, they need very little training.\nYou\u2019re right about the seed salesmen. (It\u2019s always men, of course.) They are selling a commodity so they get the farmer\u2019s order by connecting with that farmer, over and over again.\nThis is such a good article Penelope. I absolutely enjoy all of your work.

In her book, Marci Alboher labels this the \u201cslash\u201d life \u2014 where you have more than one profession and a slash between them.\u201d So your son could perform cello as well as teach it or do other related activities.\nAs a career guidance counsellor, I am always trying to analyze my preschooler\u2019s future occupational options so your article made me smile.

        "raw_content": "Melanie Takefman\nHillary lost but women have won\nI started writing this piece under the premise that Hillary would win. I even had a snappy headline: \u201cShe made history. Now let\u2019s rewrite it.\u201d\nNow, as we pick up the pieces in what feels like a bad hangover, I realize that the message hasn\u2019t changed; it\u2019s even more pressing. Today, it\u2019s necessary to make our voices heard more than ever.\nSomething herstoric happened over these past few months. With so much sexism crudely exposed, women\u2019s stories have taken center stage. Finally, people are listening.\nHilary was scrutinized and belittled from the onset of the campaign, despite her vast experience and qualifications and in contrast to her male counterparts. Yet, it was Donald Trump and his sordid treatment of women that broke the straw on the camel\u2019s back and ultimately strengthened our voices.\nThe tsunami of testimonies that flooded social and mainstream media following the leak of the Access Hollywood tapes have given an unprecedented platform to sexual assault. This unbridled feminine outpouring began in the U.S. but made waves around the world.\nIt\u2019s been a game-changer. Women\u2019s experiences have never enjoyed more empathetic, widespread exposure.\nIt\u2019s made me and other women hold our heads higher. Hell, feminism isn\u2019t a bad word anymore!\nAt the same time, this change has underscored the massive chasm between women\u2019s experience and men\u2019s awareness of women\u2019s experiences.\nSexual harassment is a mainstay of our lives; I don\u2019t know one woman who has not experienced it. Yet, the past few months have revealed that the men in our lives are unaware of it. This New York Times article, for example, recounts how Trump\u2019s \u201cgrab them by the pussy\u201d scandal precipitated a deluge of revelations of sexual assault between spouses. How is it that the two sexes have lived together, often as life partners, without being mutually aware of this fundamental experience?\nThe answer is that it was never out in the open. It wasn\u2019t at the top of public agenda because men generally determine the public agenda.\nNot anymore. Social media has opened up vast opportunities for women to wield power. We\u2019ve begun to penetrate the mainstream media and influence the public agenda more too.\nIf you told me a few months ago that one of this country\u2019s most esteemed journalists would be forced to resign following allegations of sexual assault, I wouldn\u2019t have believed you. Had it not been for the U.S. election mess, Danielle Berrin may not have come forward, and I\u2019m quite certain that Shavit would still be writing, speaking to Jewish communities abroad-and harassing women.\nTrump\u2019s win is terrifying and I can understand the acute fear so many Americans, especially women, feel. They face an uphill battle. Trump won despite of, and perhaps because of, his attitude toward women. Yet, that\u2019s only half the story. What women have achieved in recent months transcends candidates and countries. I\u2019m convinced that this dirty campaign spawned something irreversible. People are listening. Men are understanding.\nWe must ride this wave. We\u2019ve got the mic. Let\u2019s pump up the volume.\nLet\u2019s flood the media with our stories, thoughts and narratives. Let\u2019s share our experiences in work, motherhood, singlehood, divorce, migration, assault and achievement\u2014all that makes us different as women.

One of our primary goals is providing customers with top-notch academic help, so you can count on a free-of-charge revision of the paper you purchased on CustomWritings.com. For this, your request must meet the following criteria:\nConsistent instructions: You must provide revision directions that comply with your initial instructions for the order. For example, you cannot ask to rewrite your paper on a different topic.\nProper revision request: Be advised that you cannot order a revision via email or phone. Please use the special revision request button which you can find on your personal order page.\nOne week deadline: If you approve the paper you received, you can ask for editing anytime. Please note, however, that once you approve your order, you have only 7 days to have it revised for free.\nSometimes it may happen that the order needs major enhancements. Due to a number of reasons, you might want it to be rewritten from scratch, or to change large parts of it significantly. In this case, you will have to pay an extra fee, which is different in every particular case. To get an estimate of the fee, please our support team. The same applies if you have missed the 7-day deadline after having approved the order.\nWe understand that for big orders such as a full thesis or dissertation, one week is not enough. Such orders are subject to the Progressive Delivery feature, which means they are sent to you in parts as they are completed by the author. A revision request for orders with the Progressive Delivery feature can be submitted within 21 days after the initial approval.\nIn some cases, we can extend a revision deadline according to our writers\u2019 requests\u2013but only if the time frame you paid for allows such an extension.\nYou are free to request a different writer to perform a revision. Keep in mind though that we will need extra time to find a new writer.

It shows a stunning disregard for the well-being of people and the planet. President Trump will now have to answer for walking away from one of the most hard-fought and popular global achievements in recent memory.\n\u201cWithdrawing from the Paris Agreement will leave the U.S. diplomatically adrift, at odds with nearly 200 countries. There are now 194 countries united in their determination on climate, while a group of three \u2013 Syria, Nicaragua, and the United States \u2013 stand apart.\nNews Published 27 Feb 2017 Last modified 08 Mar 2017\nTopics: Climate change adaptation Environment and health Sustainability transitions\nDespite budgetary challenges, cities and towns across Europe are taking action to put in place measures that will help them adapt to the impacts of climate change. A new European Environment Agency (EEA) report released today highlights the opportunities open to municipalities to share best practices and how they can support projects like green roofs or expanding city parks to help alleviate the negative effects of climate change.\nImage \u00a9 Areal picture: Mathias Friedel, vision: Triebhaus Landschaftsarchitekten Hamburg, montage: Rolf Kuchling\nThe EEA report \u201cFinancing urban adaptation to climate change,\u201d takes a closer look at innovative funding options now being used, such as green bonds and crowdfunding, alongside traditional funding channels. The report includes case studies that analyse how 11 cities across Europe are developing, funding and implementing urban adaptation measures. The case studies outline various projects that will help cities better protect themselves from the damage caused by extreme weather events. These include building more green spaces and installing green roofs, which enhance water retention and provide cooling as well as thermal insulation.\nHeadline: 7 Crazy Things That Are Going To Happen As Sea Levels Rise\nMeta: Sea levels are currently rising, and that\u2019s not good. But what exactly is going to happen. Here are 7 crazy things.\nH1: 7 Crazy Things That Are Going To Happen As Sea Levels Rise\nIn the movie The Day After Tomorrow, the entire earth is struck by a catastrophic weather pattern that causes a massive rise in sea levels and ushers in a new ice age. It\u2019s a pretty cheesy movie that is high on special effects and low on quality acting.\nHow likely is an event like that? Will we be struck by some sort of rogue storm that transforms the face of the planet?\nBut we do know that sea levels are rising and it certainly is changing the face of the earth. Although it\u2019s happening at a much slower rate, the long term effects will be incredibly devastating.\nIn this post we\u2019re going to explain why sea levels are rising, what will happen as a result, and how cities are preparing for it.\nWhy Are Sea Levels Rising?\nCity of London. Image Via\nThere isn\u2019t much doubt that sea levels are rising. From 1880 - 2009, the global sea level rose approximately 8 inches. That means that all the oceans are now approximately 8 inches higher now than they were 150 years ago.\nEven more frightening, the average annual rate of the global rise dramatically increased from 1993 - 2008, up 65 - 90 percent over the previous years. The waters are rising faster, with the U.S. East Coast and the Gulf of Mexico increasing the fastest.\nBut why is this happening? Several reasons:\nby John Bellamy Foster\nTopics: Climate Change , Ecology , Political Economy\nPhoto Credit: BBC, Getty Images.\nJohn Bellamy Foster is the editor of MR and a professor of sociology at the University of Oregon. He is coauthor, with Paul Burkett, of Marx and the Earth (Haymarket, 2017).\nThis very expensive GLOBAL WARMING bullshit has got to stop. Our planet is freezing, record low temps, and our GW scientists are stuck in ice.\n\u2014Donald Trump, January 2, 20141\nThe alarm bells are ringing. The climate-change denialism of the Trump administration, coupled with its goal of maximizing fossil-fuel extraction and consumption at all costs, constitutes, in the words of Noam Chomsky, \u201calmost a death knell for the human species.\u201d As noted climatologist Michael E. Mann has declared, \u201cI fear that this may be game over for the climate.\u201d2\nThe effects of the failure to mitigate global warming will not of course come all at once, and will not affect all regions and populations equally. But just a few years of inaction in the immediate future could lock in dangerous climate change that would be irreversible for the next ten thousand years.3 It is feared that once the climatic point of no return\u2014usually seen as a 2\u00b0C increase in global average temperatures\u2014is reached, positive-feedback mechanisms will set in, accelerating warming trends and leading, in the words of James Hansen, former director of NASA\u2019s Goddard Institute for Space Studies and the foremost U.S. climate scientist, to \u201ca dynamic situation that is out of [human] control,\u201d propelling the world toward the 4\u00b0C (or even higher) future that is thought by scientists to portend the end of civilization, in the sense of organized human society.4\nCan the United States Achieve a Low Carbon Economy by 2050?\nThe first green public building in Turkey\nHow Does Oil Impact the Environment?\nHome Energy Savings Guide for Kids, Teens and AdultsinShare",

        "raw_content": "Trump to meet North Korean leader Feb 27-28 in Vietnam\nUS President Donald Trump will hold a second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Vietnam on February 27 and 28 to jump-start a diplomatic effort to dismantle the reclusive nation's nuclear and missile programmes. The announcement about the meeting came during Trump's second State of the Union address. Kim and Trump met in Singapore last year, marking the first bilateral meeting between leaders of the two countries. While North Korea since then has refrained from overtly provocative actions like testing nuclear warheads or ballistic missiles, it has yet to agree to actually give up any piece of its atomic arsenal.\nAddressing Congress, Trump said progress has been made in his administration's efforts to achieve peace on the Korean peninsula. \"We continue our historic push for peace on the Korean Peninsula. Our hostages have come home, nuclear testing has stopped and there has not been a missile launch in more than 15 months,\" Trump said during the address that lasted for more than 80 minutes. Trump, however, also gave an ominous warning about the risks of heightened tensions with Pyongyang. It is not clear in which city the summit will take place. Hanoi, the nation's capital, and Da Nang, a coastal resort town, have both been floated as possibilities.\nA source familiar with the negotiations told CNN that North Korea favours Hanoi given that they have an embassy there. The US favours Da Nang given the fact that there was recently an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in the city which means the US has already conducted a full check. Vietnam, which has diplomatic ties with both Washington and Pyongyang, offers advantages for both leaders. Da Nang is an easy flight for Kim's shorter-range aircraft and, for Trump, the country offers a symbolic nod to a communist country that has improved relations with the US since the end of the Vietnam War. The lead US negotiator with North Korea, Stephen Biegun, is set to meet with his North Korean counterpart on Wednesday in Pyongyang.\nWith the summit between Trump and Kim just three weeks away, follow-up meetings at a working level will be needed, especially as there was no progress on denuclearisation during the last visit by a North Korean delegation to Washington in January. The North Koreans have said that they would take steps on denuclearisation if the US takes corresponding measures, though Biegun said last week that one of his tasks will be to figure out exactly what that means. Trump and Kim signed a vaguely worded agreement at their first summit in Singapore pledging to work toward full denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. Members of Trump's administration, meanwhile, acknowledge North Korea is still developing a nuclear weapons programme and US sanctions on the country remain in place.\nDirector of National Intelligence Dan Coats told lawmakers last week that \"North Korea will seek to retain its WMD capabilities, and is unlikely to completely give up its nuclear weapons and production capabilities.\" Coats said that the US intelligence has observed \"some activity that is inconsistent with full denuclearisation.\" The last nuclear test North Korea conducted was in September 2017. The regime also launched an intercontinental ballistic missile in November 2017. Some experts say the regime no longer needs to conduct such tests because of advances in its nuclear weapons programme. Pointing to an end of nuclear missile tests, Trump has placed North Korea at the top of his foreign policy achievements. Trump and Kim have exchanged letters, and the president has repeatedly said he has a \"very good relationship\" with the reclusive leader.",

        "raw_content": "The Various Reasons for Creating a Website\nWebsites are standard and in a lot of situations, vital for personal or commercial purposes. The benefits are both for individuals and companies. Those who are looking to hire and those looking to be employed. It is also a source of income and a way of connecting to the world. It is also a way of making money and interacting with the world. Your talent and expertise are displayed for the world to see. Therefore, a website is a great marketing aid.\nFor a company, a site gives believability and is also a way to boost online business. This will be important especially in gaining customers trust. Including a part for customers to post their opinions and views will give credibility to an e-commerce website. For the professional, a website is a tool to display your work and explain your experience if you are looking g to get hired. This is important for tasks such as photography and graphic design to show your expertise. Employers wish to workers that are serious with their work and want to showcase it. An employer may want to look into a potential employee and to buy a domain website is an addition to your career and employability.\nCreating a website for personal pleasure is also a good reason. The site can provide the different opinions you have. It may not be aimed at generating cash or looking for employment. Posting as many times as possible means some likeminded people enjoy viewing or reading. Showing off your talent and skills will be a way of marketing yourself. Add content that offers good news that will be of interest to your audience.\nStarting a website is a way of engaging with the rest of the world. But there are tips for keeping your audience interested in your website. Keep the look smooth and polished. Make it easy to navigate and your content easy to read and give it a personal touch and make it enjoyable.\nIt is essential for companies to have an IT that manages the challenges that arise with data and computer systems. Therefore a consulting firm such as IT consulting in Los Angeles provides their clients with virus malware protection, security services, data back up and more. This department is key in a business or company should a laptop become destroyed, and files get lost. This department is essential in case a computer gets damaged, and data get lost. An IT department will manage your data and images against such risks. Keeping an eye on your files and records by the department will keep such dangers at bay.\nCreative thinking and vision keep a site going. Whatever reason you may have to start a website, allow your vision to flourish.\n\u2190 The Path To Finding Better Websites\nHomes \u2013 Getting Started & Next Steps \u2192",

        "raw_content": "This Double-Amputee Became The Most Badass Yoga Teacher Ever\n\u201cVeterans often feel so isolated because we think we\u2019re damaged or different but yoga can change that because it\u2019s all about being connected with the earth and people around you.\u201d\nMeet Dan Nevins, a 43 year old U.S. veteran, yoga teacher, and motivational speaker who lives in Ponte Vedra, Florida.\nInstagram: @dannevins / Via instagram.com\nThis past week, Nevins was invited for the second year in a row to teach yoga at the annual White House Easter Egg Roll.\nThe yoga demonstration was a part of the first lady Michelle Obama's \u00ab Let's Move \u00bb campaign dedicated to solving the problem of childhood obesity and raising a healthier generation. \u00ab I got to lead all these kids and it was amazing because last year it was really fun and goofy but this time they got so into it, they were totally in the moment, \u00bb Nevins said.\nNevins lost both his legs and suffered a traumatic brain injury after an improvised explosive device (IED) detonated under his vehicle while he was deployed to Iraq in 2004.\nAfter the sustaining injuries in Iraq, Nevins spent 2 years and had 36 surgeries at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.. \u00ab I initially came out of it with my right leg, but after another year I had it amputated because the pain and bone infections were unbearable \u2014 and it was the best decision I've ever made, \u00bb he said. Nevins is now a bilateral below-the-knee amputee and wears prosthetic legs. \u00ab Getting my prosthetics definitely helped my ego because people liked them, kids thought I was a really cool Transformer, and when I went out girls didn't even care that I was an amputee, \u00bb Nevins says.\nNevins has been an adaptive athlete since 2007 but didn\u2019t start yoga until 2014, when he took time off to recover from a surgery and struggled with post-combat stress.\nAfter rehabilitation, Nevins says played competitive golf, rode his adapted road bike around the country, and climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. He also became an executive at the Wounded Warrior Project, which raises awareness and supports injured veterans. \u00ab It was great, but what I was actually doing by competing in these ego-boosting, achievement-driven sports was avoiding my invisible, emotional wounds of war, \u00bb Nevins says.\nTwo years ago, Nevins had to spend 8 weeks at home recovering alone on crutches, which he says made it impossible to work or take care of his young daughter. \u00ab I had never really identified with veterans who struggle with PTSD but I finally got it, things got so dark and I couldn't cope with my post-combat stress anymore, \u00bb Nevins says. Every day, 22 veterans commit suicide in the United States. \u00ab I didn't want to be that statistic, so I reached out to a friend for help \u2014 and by chance she also teach yoga too. \u00bb\nMark Cubbedge, \u00ab Faces of Freedom, \u00bb / Instagram: @dannevins / Via instagram.com\nArticle Pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent15 Decadent Layer Cakes That Are Totally To Die ForArticle Suivant15 Mouthwatering Treats You Absolutely Need To Eat",

        "raw_content": "But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law. Galatians 4:4 (NASB)\nToday we wrap up our series and our week of Devotionals for Christmas. Even though it is the day after Christmas, we never really get past Christmas. On that first Christmas day Jesus Christ appeared on earth as God in the flesh and the connection he made with us keeps on going in a way the world never knew prior to that day but is available to everyone always and continuously going forward. Our verse for today says this connection was made in \"the fullness of time.\" We have explored the Christmas story and interacted with many of the details that God brought about in order for Jesus Christ, God's Son to come at just the right moment, in just the right way, and in just the right place.\nNotice that today's verse does not say that Jesus Christ was born of a man and woman, but rather \"God sent forth His Son, born of a woman.\" The only way God the Son could take on human form was for God the Father to be the actual cause of the conception that came about in Mary's womb. In Luke 1:35 the angel described it to Mary in this way, \u201cThe Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God.\" Without a Divine conception and birth we don't have Jesus Christ here on earth in the flesh. If we don't have Jesus Christ here on earth in the flesh, we don't have a Savior to \"save His people from their sins.\" Without our being saved from our sins God cannot reclaim a lost humanity for himself (to live for his glory and his purposes) and everyone perishes in the absence of eternal life.\nThe last thing today's verse says is that Jesus Christ was born under the law. Jesus came to earth with the old covenant (law) in effect in order put into place the new covenant. Regarding the last supper just before Jesus Christ's death, burial, and resurrection, Luke 22:20 says this: \"And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, 'This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.'\" Hebrews 10:8-10 says, \u201cSacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have not desired, nor have You taken pleasure in them\u201d (which are offered according to the Law), then He said, \u201cBehold, I have come to do Your will.\u201d He takes away the first in order to establish the second. By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Hebrews 9:26B says, \"But now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.\nLord, thank you for the gift of your Son, Jesus Christ. Jesus, thank you for being manifested to the world in the fullness of time. Thank you for the new covenant of grace of which I am a forever recipient. Thank you for new life and eternal life. Thank you that Christmas is everything! Amen",

In these ways labyrinths are always a resource for universal inspirations. From the edge of the design, along the spiral path to a center space, and returning along the same route, walking labyrinths or simply viewing those yields heightened awareness, as well as sighting new sensibilities to fit into peoples\u2019 experiences.\nOn July 27, 2018 at 10 a.m., Dr. Margaret Rappaport and Darlene T. Hagon, both Veriditas-certified labyrinth facilitators will guide a one hour walk on the Chartres-style, eleven circuit labyrinth in Chase Park in Chatham, MA on Cape Cod. The theme for focus and contemplation is Universal Inspirations of the Labyrinth.\nAll are welcome to this outdoor gathering that will feature meditative music and decorative symbols that link people to the traditions and the practice of walking labyrinths for myriad purposes. The event is free of charge.\nFor more information, please contact Darlene T. Hagon at [email protected].",

In addition to the production of liquid and gaseous biofuels used for transport, structural composite materials, reinforced plastics using wood fibres, pharmaceuticals, health promoting products and food sweeteners, bio-products from indus\u00adtrial waste gases, innovative packaging and filtration materials, green biodegradable chemicals including polymers and resins, fine chemicals for paints and adhesives, and many other products are being researched and developed using rapidly advancing biotechnologies. It seems highly likely that these products will make a major contribution through both niche and mainstream markets in the bio-economy of tomorrow.\nVery small markets are possible for high value specialty biopharmaceuticals up to $100,000 per kg and biochemicals with a market price up to $1,000 per kg, down to relatively low value, bulk, commodity products such as biofuels at around $1 per litre. So the aim of a biorefinery business should be to extract as much value as possible from the biomass feedstocks by achieving the optimum product mix. Focusing on high volume, low value commodities is usually not the most viable strategy, but neither is concentrating on low volume, high value products. The potential process options are being evaluated through international collaborations such as in the IEA Bioenergy\u2019s Task 42, Co-production of Fuels, Chemicals, Fuels and Materials from Biomass (www. ieabioenergy. com/Task. aspx? id=4) that was established in 2007.\nThe concept of a \u2018biorefinery\u2019 varies between a single feedstock converted into a single product (such as sugarcane to ethanol), single feedstock and multi-products (such as oilseed rape to biodiesel, high-protein animal feed, and heat and power generation from the straw), and multi-feedstocks to multi-products. This is analogous to an oil refinery processing a range of petroleum products and base chemicals. During the last century, the number of oil products marketed has grown from a few fuels and lubricants produced by the simple process of distillation to over 2,000 products today using complex thermal and catalytic cracking as well as reforming processes. Many of the lessons learned by process and chemical engineers can be applied to modern biorefineries and hence shorten the experience of learning-by-doing to add value to the bioenergy industry.\nBut biorefineries are not new. In the 1700s, the forest industry produced pitch, tar and resins, turpentine and rosin used in ship-building and the sailing of them, with some of these still being produced. The modern biorefinery concept has also existed for some decades as exemplified by the Norwegian company Borregaard, which has long used woody biomass from spruce to produce a range of biochemicals, biomaterials and bioethanol. Ethanol is only a minor, relatively low value product of their processing activities, along with the world market domination of some high value, specialist chemicals. The mix of products can be modified as markets dictate.\nA strong economic business case can be made for integrating the production of conventional biomass products with new \u2018bio-products\u2019. This can provide new employment opportunities, and benefit the local and global environment by the recycling of biomaterials or significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions to reach a very low carbon footprint. Moving towards a future green bioeconomy that the world requires will enable heat, power, biofuels and materials resulting from the traditional use of biomass feedstocks to be complemented by adding value through the new and emerging bio-product technologies.\nBiorefineries can be designed to create intermediate products for processing into end-products in facilities elsewhere, or derive products ready for market directly on-site. Where an available feedstock is seasonal, multi-feedstocks may be needed to keep the biorefinery operating all year round. This can add to the complexity and cost of the front-end of the plant. Minimizing the costs of collection, transport and storage of the feedstock is another challenge that cannot be ignored when determining the optimum scale of processing plant.\nThe biorefinery concept, even in its simplest form, provides a more complete utilisation of the biomass feedstock than bioenergy alone. This book provides an excellent overview of the numerous opportunities for commercial viability as a result of the science being applied to the engineering concepts of biorefining. New pilot-scale and demonstration plants that produce biofuels and plastic composites from woody biomass have already been established in Finland, Canada and elsewhere, with many others planned using a range of feedstocks. Development of biorefineries usually requires a supportive government policy framework, as well as research and development support in order to overcome the existing technological, social and environmental barriers. For example, recently in\nNew Zealand, my own country, an international forest paper pulp company has received government support to build a demonstration biorefinery with the aim to utilise plantation forest residues as the main feedstock, and formed a partnership with an oil company and the forest Crown Research organisation.\nThe biorefinery model enables the agricultural and forest sectors to diversify their traditional markets and products, to become more energy self-sufficient, and to displace fossil fuel-based products with low carbon and renewable alternatives. In a future carbon-constrained global economy, the use of fossil fuels will be constrained and there will be increased demand for renewable and sustainable products arising from biomass resources. Consequently, biorefineries and their bio-products will play an increasingly important economic role. The world-acclaimed editor and authors of this book have helped advance the knowledge needed to achieve that goal and provided a vision for the global green, bioeconomy of the future.\nRalph E. H.

The large atrium where the food mart was, that was once circular having an impressive cathedral look and feel about it being completely spoiled with half of it now squared-off to house the H&M unit.\nEdit : Ignore me.

Chris JESCOM\nMANILA \u2013 \u201cIgnacio de Loyola\u201d, the Filipino-produced film about the life of the founder of the Society of Jesus, has been awarded Best Film at the recently concluded Mirabile Dictu International Catholic Film Festival in Vatican City, making it the first Filipino film to win the prestigious award.\n\u201cThe most important thing to say about Ignacio de Loyola is that\u2026it is the first time in the history of the Festival that this happened. There were no discussions about it. The members of the jury appreciated the script, the actors, the decorations, the costumes, the music of the film: in one word, everything,\u201d said festival founder and organizer Liana Marabini, describing the jury\u2019s unanimous decision.\nHeld at the Palazzo Cardinal Cesi, the film festival handed out four major awards for Best Short Film, Best Documentary, Best Director, and Best Film. \u201cIgnacio de Loyola\u201d directed by Paolo Dy bested \u201cSaint Bridget of Sweden\u201d by Fabio Carini (USA) and \u201cFatima the Ultimate Mystery\u201d by Andres Garrigo (SPAIN).\nProducers Pauline Mangilog-Saltarin and Ernestine Tamana were in Rome to accept the Silver Fish trophy.\n\u201cIt was truly a humbling experience to be called on stage to receive the award. Ignacio de Loyola was made with blood, sweat, and tears, literally!\u201d said Saltarin. \u201cWe share this important recognition with our director and screenwriter Paolo Dy and the whole cast, crew and production staff who made this film with so much passion and grace and turned it into a genuine labor of love.\u201d\n\u201cIgnacio de Loyola\u201d first made history in 2016 when it became the first Filipino film to premiere at the Vatican. Produced by Jesuit Communications Foundation Philippines and top-billed by Spanish actor Andreas Mu\u00f1oz, it enjoyed a successful theatrical run in the Philippines last year and has been shown around the world, particularly in the United States, Spain, and in Mexico where it won the Audience Choice Award at the 12th Cine Con Valores Film Festival.\n\u201cIgnacio de Loyola\u201d executive Producer Fr. Emmanuel Alfonso, SJ further added: \u201cWe are greatly honored by this award. It comes as a real surprise because the film was our first attempt at filmmaking. We therefore share this with all those who struggled with us to be able to produce this film. We hope that more people will be inspired by the example of St. Ignatius!\u201d\nConsidered to be the \u201cOscars\u201d of Catholic films, the Mirabile Dictu receives more than a thousand film entries each year from all over the world. The festival aimed to encourage producers and filmmakers to create documentaries, docu-fiction, TV series, short films, and programs that promote universal moral values and positive models.\nNow on its 8th edition, it was conceived and created in 2010 under the High Patronage of the Pontifical Council for Culture (Pontificium Consilium de Cultura) during Pope Benedict XVI\u2019s pontificate. Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, president of the council, was present during the awarding ceremonies and gave a message about the power of film to transform lives.\nThe prize of the Festival, \u201cIl Pesce d\u2019Argento\u201d (The Silver Fish, in Italian), is inspired by one of the first Christian symbols.\nParties interested to screen Ignacio de Loyola in their country may send an e-mail to Jesuit Communications Foundation at jcf@admu.edu.ph, send a private message to the official Ignacio de Loyola Facebook page or call +632-4265971-72.

        "raw_content": "Vernon Morris, image used with his permission.\nby Nikoleta Kalaydzhieva, Sean Jamshidi and Rafael Prieto Curiel. Published on 27 October 2017.\nMeet Vernon Morris; a chemist, a mathematician and an active contributor to making everyone aware of the race gap in academia and industry.\nBecoming an academic\nGiven the successes of his academic career, it is surprising to hear that Vernon Morris \u201cnever planned to go to college. A lot of folks where I was growing up, they didn\u2019t really go to college. They went into the air force or they tried to find a job.\u201d He was good at boxing when he was at high school and thus was given two options: either join the air force (\u201cbecause they had a good boxing programme\u201d) or become a professional boxer right away.\nVernon working on his project; Image reproduced with his permission\nBut fate intervened, and Vernon started at college in Atlanta. \u201cI left for college, but I didn\u2019t know what I wanted to major in.\u201d He was on his way to his part-time job when, cutting through the Department of Chemistry, he bumped into a professor who was so intrigued by him that he offered him a scholarship. \u201cBut there was a catch. You have to major in chemistry and you have to major in maths, because you can\u2019t do chemistry without maths. I accepted his offer.\u201d This professor was Henry McBay, a man who is responsible for more African-American PhD students (over 50) than any other single person. It doesn\u2019t come as a surprise, then, that Vernon considers him as a role model: \u201cHenry McBay got me on the right path\u201d.\nThus, in 1985 Vernon obtained a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree from Morehouse College, Atlanta, with majors in mathematics and chemistry and a minor in physics. \u201cBy the time I was about to finish, I liked maths a lot and I liked chemistry a lot. I just wanted to keep doing what I was doing.\u201d At around that time, he was introduced to a professor and \u201cit seemed like he was getting paid to do what he wanted to do. He had an idea, he wrote a proposal, the government would give him money and he went off and did what he wanted to do. He\u2019d write some papers up, then go and present it. I liked that lifestyle.\u201d But in order for Vernon to be able to do this he had to get a PhD. He commenced a research degree at the Georgia Institute of Technology, choosing atmospheric chemistry \u201cbecause it was more connected to things that were happening at the time, like the ozone hole. This was a way of applying chemistry and maths to do something in the environment that was relevant to both.\u201d There, he built laser-based instrumentation that would fly on aircraft to look at and measure aerosol interactions.\nVernon\u2019s experiment on a research vessel; Image reproduced with his permission\nVernon completed his PhD in 1991 and was the first African American to graduate from Georgia Tech in his particular programme. He then went on to a postdoctoral position at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and later in astrochemistry and chemical dynamics as a presidential postdoctoral scholar at at the University of California Davis. But, he says, \u201ceventually I had to grow up.\u201d He became an assistant professor at Howard University. Later he served as the founding director of the Howard University graduate programme in atmospheric sciences. He was also a visiting scientist at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, atmospheric chemistry and dynamics branch. He is currently at Howard University, where he works on aerosol processes in the Earth\u2019s environment. \u201cI work on research vessels in the tropical Atlantic Ocean chasing dust storms around, measuring aerosol processes, taking them back to the lab and modelling them to try and make sense of the observations.\u201d\nWhat should schools do\nWe were interested to hear Vernon\u2019s opinions on what should be done at each different educational stage in order to encourage more black students to progress to the next level. One of the main factors, he says, is that the schools attended by minority students tend not to have degree-qualified teachers in the sciences. \u201cYou can\u2019t teach the love, and students cannot feel the love, of the subject matter when it is being conveyed to them. Anyone who likes maths, chemistry, physics can probably go back to some instructor who inspired them by loving what they were doing.\u201d\nHands on science lesson; Image reproduced with his permission\nAnother important thing for Vernon is that lessons should be more interactive, with more hands-on access. If students learn by doing, by blowing things up or building robots, then they will engage more with STEM subjects. At Howard University, Vernon and others have set up a \u2018travelling science show\u2019 where they do hands-on demonstrations, trying to show students and parents that science is accessible. \u201cComplex concepts may go into space travel and technology and all the things going on around you, but you actually have access to those. We can show you what those fundamental concepts are, and you can master those concepts. By mastering those concepts you can be a contributor to what the next wave of technology brings, versus just a consumer.\u201d He strongly believes in bringing science to the level of the audience, and believes that this is one way forward.\nAfter examining the numbers, it turns out that there are more African Americans and Latinos going to college in the USA than ever before. This is a great thing, however when you break down the numbers, about 50% of these go to two-year colleges or for-profit colleges. Vernon says that in these colleges, students only rack up debt and the completion is as low as 12%. Thus even though there are more going in, you don\u2019t have more coming out. It turns out that, looking at STEM degrees specifically, the numbers are either going down or are flat. Vernon thinks that \u201cthe opportunities are out there, but the strategies that will enable success are lacking behind some of those opportunities. Because of that, access and inclusion at the professional level, getting into the careers, is going down. We are not seeing improvement there. I think that takes a coordinated effort.\u201d\nVernon speaking to children about sciencel; Image reproduced with his permission\nAccording to Vernon, there is a lot of focus on getting people to study STEM subjects at school but, despite that, inclusion and access drops off at later stages. This could be because the opportunities are not distributed equitably across the whole spectrum. \u201cIt is great to see all of those programmes at the high school level, but you have to make those connections all the way through.\u201d About 10% of African Americans attend minority-serving (or \u2018historically black\u2019) institutions in the USA, but over 25% of minority PhDs come from people who attended those institutions. \u201cIt is a huge production from a very small segment of the academic sector.\u201d Perhaps this is due to the fact that in these institutions you see the role models that are missing elsewhere.\nPersonal experiences as an African American academic\nVernon on a research vessel; Image reproduced with his permission\nNaturally, our conversation progressed to discussing times when he has actively been discouraged from pursuing a career in STEM. Worryingly, at every stage of his academic development there was a story to tell. At high school in Washington state when he started a calculus class, the teacher said to him, \u201cI flunked your brother and I will flunk you too\u201d. But that was not all. \u201cI liked maths and science in high school, it\u2019s just that at the time I didn\u2019t see myself doing anything with it. I would sign up for courses and the counsellor would remove me from science and maths and put me in the wood shop or the auto shop.\u201d Unfortunately, it did not end there. \u201cAt Georgia Tech, the first couple of days in the graduate programme people were saying \u2018what are you doing here?\u2019\u201d A final story came from his years working at NASA. \u201cI think I was the only African American working in the branch, but they had black administrators and folks that made the coffee. I was in the coffee room, and a guy came to me and asked me to come by his office and empty his trash.\u201d\nVernon does not think that all this is personal, rather that people are clueless to the fact that a scientist is not always an old white man. But, he is trying to tackle this issue. At the engineering festival in DC, there is a section called \u2018meet the scientist\u2019. Here, children and parents come and ask questions about what scientists do. \u201cI think it is important to have people of colour there and engage folk. I look like I do, and I like \u201csciency stuff\u201d. You could too, and you can work with someone who looks like me or work for someone who looks like me.\u201d\nAccording to Vernon, a lot of the misconceptions and biases that people have arise from not asking what might be considered as difficult or awkward questions. As scientists we are taught to think that we are objective; but scientists are people, and people have biases and act on them until they are talked through and worked out. \u201cRegardless of who we are, we have a bias and we shouldn\u2019t suppress them and say I don\u2019t have any. Instead, we should say: \u2018Okay, I\u2019ve got some biases and maybe we don\u2019t even know what they are, but through conversation I can tease those out and we can interact honestly. Maybe there are things that I can do differently that will enhance access and diversity and inclusion for everybody, regardless of colour, gender, or gender identity.\u2019\u201d\nWorking towards a more diverse scientific community\nTalitha Washington and Vernon Morris; Image reproduced with his permission\nThis is why Vernon, together with Talitha Washington, decided to write an article and address the present issues. \u201cThe paper concerns both the academic world and the professional world. The academic world has a different set of issues regarding mobility and access. When we look across many of our science departments, in the maths and physics departments in particular, there are very few minority faculty. If you never see any African American professors, or very rarely see them, then you don\u2019t see yourself becoming one, and you say to yourself maybe I should do something else.\u201d In geosciences and atmospheric sciences, fewer than 0.1% of PhD students are African American, and even less are Native American. But there are a lot of commonalities in the professional experience across the disciplines. For example, in maths it\u2019s very similar: you can count the new African American PhD students in the US on two hands.\nVernon thinks that, to increase diversity in the scientific community, professional societies need to take more of the lead. \u201cThey are the bridge between education and society. If that society says we are going to make a difference here and we are going to show you how to include everyone and at leadership level, then that is a significant part of pushing things across the spectrum.\u201d\nAfter presenting their paper at the National Technical Association, the audience reacted to one point in particular: that it is easier to talk about diversity in terms of gender, because that solution is more readily accessible. \u201cWhile a lot of the STEM societies have reached gender parity, again when you get to the leadership and decision making positions it is not 50/50. There are legitimate arguments about gender. But, what happens is because you are closer to a solution there and you see improvement at all levels , you\u2019ve just got to fix this last problem. Whereas race conjures up a lot of guilt and defensive reaction. If you can\u2019t talk about a problem you can\u2019t fix it. If you can\u2019t address the elephant in the room you get trampled. This is why difficult discussions should be encouraged.\u201d\n\u2190 In conversation with Talitha Washington\nClosing the first Black Mathematician Month \u2192",

        "raw_content": "Clouds of Confusion\n\u201cThe cloud\u201d is touted as one of the biggest advances of the current era. And it promises to be: having information stored centrally and synchronized seamlessly across multiple devices would be a dogsend. The operative word being \u201cwould.\u201d There are a few potentially faulty assumptions here, one of which is that there is a single \u201ccloud.\u201d And there is also a catch: that is, the \u201cmultiple devices\u201d bit. Just how many, and of what capabilities, are we talking about?\nIt turns out that when you start to mix and match, as invariably happens in real life, things become slightly more complicated. I have encountered this recently when trying to understand exactly how and where all the data is flying around between and among my two Macs and my iPod touch, and MobileMe (personal information) and Exchange Server (work). I had quite a time putting together the following diagram, but I think it is accurate.\nThe iTunes sync from the Mac Pro to iPod touch is tethered; everything else is wireless on wired internet. I should note that this is actually a simplification of my setup: I have several private domains as well. But it gives a good picture of the problem: by default, not everything is synchronized, or synchronized live. And I\u2019m using a single vendor (Apple), at least for my devices. First, due to what appears to be a bug, address book information doesn\u2019t work between Exchange Server and Macs\u2014though on the iPod touch this is not an issue. However, for me the crux of the problem is trying to undertand why only mail is \u201cON\u201d (whatever that means) by default:\nThere\u2019s nothing to indicate what \u201cON\u201d versus \u201cOFF\u201d means. My address book and calendar are synced via iTunes; as an expert user, I made the leap to assuming that this means \u201cover the air\u201d sync, rather than depending on a tethered sync via iTunes. But when I flip the switch to turn on, say, Calendars, I am presented with what I think may be the most confusing dialog message I have received in thirty years of computing:\nI defy anyone to explain to me, based solely on the message and buttons, what this means. I spent half an hour today chatting with an Apple support representative, and I\u2019m not convinced that he fully understood either.\nOf course there are calendars on my iPod not synchronized with Exchange; of all vendors, one might think that Apple would make the assumption that living in an all-Microsoft world isn\u2019t necessarily the norm.\nWould I like to merge the (non-Exchange-synced) calendars with MobileMe? Well, they\u2019re already synced with MobileMe via iTunes. What is the difference between \u201csyncing\u201d and \u201cmerging\u201d? Will the latter duplicate information?\nWhich \u201cserver-based calendars\u201d are being referred to here: MobileMe, Exchange, or both? I assume \u201cremoved\u201d is a synonym for \u201cdeleted,\u201d but removed from where? My iPod, Exchange, and/or MobileMe? Scary.\nWhat is the difference between \u201cDo not Merge\u201d and \u201cCancel\u201d?\nI\u2019m going to take a chance\u2014while I\u2019m writing this post\u2014and tap \u201cMerge with MobileMe.\u201d I have backups.\nAfter proceeding, I get a progress message, \u201cTurning On Calendars\u2026\u201d. This lasts for a long while (at least five minutes), until finally I stop tapping and the iPod turns off its screen. When I rouse it again, the Calendars setting is \u201cON\u201d.\nAnd what is the result? I created a new event on my iPod touch, and it has appeared on MobileMe without a tethered sync. So much confusion and stress for something that should have been set up by default. If it took me this much analysis and thought, what is the lot of the average user? Synchronization strikes me as a complex development challenge, but it should be the default: that is the promise. If Apple hasn\u2019t got it right, what chance do we have?\nNow I\u2019m going to try turning on Google sync \u2026\nColumbus Group Alumni\nWhen I returned from Sun Microsystems in Silicon Valley to work in Vancouver, I landed at a small but growing web development company called Columbus Group. Only a couple of years later, in 2001, the company was acquired by Telus.\nThe Columbus Group offices in the Arts and Crafts building, near the old A&B Sound, were maintained by Telus for almost three years after the acquisition. At that point, when the remaining employees moved out, there was virtually no evidence of the company on the web. I\u2019d seen various employee alumni sites, for example the Apple HI Alumni page, and decided to create one for Columbus Group.\nI\u2019ve now moved it to this new site, but over the six years it was on my old site it was, from month to month, often my most visited page. I think this is because it has long been one of the best ways to find some of the former Columbus Group employees on the web. I also put a fair amount of thought into the display of information on the page.\nThe central part of the page is a large table which includes information on role, years at the company, current whereabouts, and contact information, including a link to LinkedIn profiles where available.\nThe \u201cYears\u201d column shows visually the span of time each employee worked for the company, so you can see whether people\u2019s tenure overlaps. The final element in this column is the Telus logo, which if present indicates that the person was employed at the time of the acquisition. And rows coloured green identify those who still work at Telus. Overall I think it\u2019s a successful information design.\nRespondent Engagement and Usability\nMy recent video blog on interaction design in online market research for Vision Critical.",

It was taken just after sun set on a clear day in November 2011.\nThe Long Walk is a section of the quays of Galway city which was designated an Architectural Conservation Area by Galway City Council who state that it has \u201ca particularly attractive setting, with views towards the sea and the Claddagh and characterises a distinct urban form, which reflects Galway\u2019s historic relationship with the sea.\nBuilt sometime in the 18th century by the Eyre family of Eyrecourt, The Long Walk is connected to the rest of Galway quay by The Spanish Arch. This is one of Galway\u2019s most historic landmarks and was built in 1584 as an extension of the city\u2019s medieval walls spanning from Martin's Tower to the bank of the Corrib to protect merchant ships from looting. Originally called Ceann an Bhalla (Irish for \u2018Head of the Wall\u2019), the arch later became know as The Spanish Arch due to the number of Spanish trading ships that docked in Galway harbour. The Spanish Arch can be seen in the shadows to the left of the photograph.\nThe photograph itself was taken from the area of Galway city know as The Claddagh which gets its name from the Irish word \u2018cladach\u2019 which means \u2018a stony beach\u2019. The Claddagh is one of the earliest recorded areas in Galway and was originally a fishing village just outside the city walls where the river Corrib meets the Galway Bay. It has been supplying the city of Galway with locally caught seafood since before the 5th century. Fish markets we held in the square just in front of the Spanish Arch. Although long annexed by the expanding Galway city, the Claddagh continued to be an Irish speaking area right into the 20th Century.\nThe Claddagh is probably most associated with the ring that bares its name, the Claddagh Ring, which was first created in the 17th century",

Flanders is perfectly equipped to play a significant international role in this sector, which is bound to drive the knowledge-intensive bio-based economy of the future.\nFlanders only comprises 13,500 km2 but houses about 134 companies with biotech activities (118 have R&D activities). In these life sciences companies, over 13,000 employees are active. Almost half of the companies are related to health care (=red biotech), 12% have agricultural (=green biotech) and 20% have industrial biotech activities (=white biotech) and about 20% are biotech R&D service providers.\nMedical biotech: Focus on health care: from diagnostics to therapeutics\nAgricutural biotech: Focus on sustainable agriculture: from marker assisted breeding to genetic modification of crops\nIndustrial biotech: Focus on bioprocessing technologies for production: from enzymes to chemicals, biobased materials and biofuels\nAre you looking for expertise in the biobased economy in general or industrial biotechnology in specific? Or are you looking for a partner to set up a new innovation trajectory or project?\nWe can help you by finding the right expertise or partner for you.\nCINBIOS is a joint initiative of FlandersBio, Ghent Bio-Energy Valley and essenscia vlaanderen and is financially supported by the Flemish Government through IWT Vlaanderen. CINBIOS provides an essential link between companies from various industrial sectors, and between these companies and the knowledge centers (universities, colleges and research institutions) working in the field of industrial biotechnology.\nCINBIOS focuses on the development of new bio-based concepts and solutions for the chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, agro, food, environmental, energy and other sectors. It aims to support innovation in these sectors by:\nCentralizing and providing access to nationally and internationally available scientific information and technological know-how.\nStarting up problem-driven research projects within the CINBIOS working groups. At first, the focus will be on the following five areas: plastics & biopolymers, bio-catalysis & fermentation, 2nd-generation biofuels, bio-based chemicals and micro-algae.\nPromoting the broad commercialization of the available academic and industrial knowledge and expertise in industrial biotechnology.\u2028CINBIOS wants to strengthen the position of Flanders internationally as an industrial biotech region.\nWhat is a biobased economy?\nThe bio-based economy uses renewable resources for industrial purposes. This emerging economy relies on the use of organic material (e.g. plants, waste) as renewable raw material for the production of new or existing products. Currently, the bio-based economy is mostly known due to its contributions in paper and cardboard production, furniture, energy and bulk chemicals market. These include fuels (ethanol, biodiesel), electricity (e.g. burning of biomass, biogas) and heat (eg wood pellets), or plastics (eg PLA, PE or starch-based) and are currently produced on a commercial scale. However, other lower volume markets connected with the bio-based economy include detergents, materials, fragrances, enzymes, cosmetics, food/feed ingredients, non-bulk chemicals, pharma and are generally less developed.",

        "raw_content": "Sports Car History\nAlong with a massive growth of America's middle class, history of the modern sports-car begins directly after WW2. European vehicles found new homes after the war, brought to the United States by returning soldiers. This brought a new-found interest in smaller, lighter cars that made for spirited driving, particularly on tight, winding roads. British auto manufacturers were quick to capitalize on America's growing interest in sports cars. During 1946 to 1952, a handful of small U.S. manufacturers also jumped on board.\nProduced from 1945 through 1949, the MG-TC was basically the same as the pre-war MG-TB it replaced. A 1250cc engine produced around 50-horsepower, achieving top speeds of 80 mph. With skinny spoke wheels, freestanding headlamps, and an upright radiator, the topless MG-TC was one of the first British sports cars to become popular in America.\nBefore Jaguar introduced the XK-120 in 1948, only exotic race machines such as Alfa Romeo, Bugatti and Duesenberg were running dual-overhead-cam engines. The twin-cam XK motor was a marvel of engineering, propelling the six-cylinder roadster to 120 miles-per-hour, making it the fastest production car of its day. The same DOHC engine that powered the Jaguar XK120 would see another two decades of use, including the XK140 and XK150.\nThe MG-TD, offered from 1949 through 1953, was a large improvement over the first three T-types. A new, larger chassis featured independent coil suspension, and a higher compression four-cylinder engine produced 54 horsepower. Unlike the MG-TC, both right-hand and left-hand drive models were offered. Total MG-TD production was 29,664 units.\nMuntz Jet\nFrom 1948 through 1950, American Sprint-car/Indy-car builder Frank Kurtis tried his hand at producing his own brand of sports cars (Kurtis Kraft). After selling less than 50 in two years, Kurtis sold the license to manufacture these cars to radio personality Earl Muntz in 1951, who renamed the car \"Muntz Jet\".\nPowered by a flathead Lincoln engine, other sourced-out parts included the transmission and suspension components. Later cars were equipped with the \"new\" 317ci Lincoln OHV motor with a \"dual range\" Lincomatic transmission. The Muntz Jet was capable of 110+ mph, a significant achievement for a road car at that time.\nSpecial features included aluminum body panels and a removable fiberglass top. In addition to the padded dashboard, Muntz designed a console between the front seats and placed a Motorola radio in it. Speakers were placed in the left and right kick panels. Also optional was a liquor bar built into the rear armrests. One of the armrests was an ice box.\nDue to their high manufacturing cost, money was lost on every Muntz Jet built. This financial drain eventually caused the company to fold. Conflicting reports estimate the Muntz company sold about 200 to 400 cars during 1951-1954.\nAfter making mini passenger cars and trucks for over decade, Crosley Motors tried their hand at a mini sports car. The Crosley HotShot was a tiny two-seater, with a fold-down windshield and bug-eye headlights. Under the hood was a 26-horsepower, 44-cubic-inch four-cylinder with a cast-iron block. The HotShot was produced from 1949 through 1952. It is considered by some to be the first post-WW2 American sports car, offered three years before the Chevrolet Corvette.\nIn the early fifties, development of GRP (glass reinforced plastic) became more sophisticated, and started being used to develop prototypes by small sports car companies. The early postwar years saw dozens of hopeful entrepreneurs manufacturing sporty car bodies designed to slip over an existing chassis. Many of these were sold as kits only, leaving assembly to the owner.\nThe first significant fiberglass body was developed by Bill Tritt. It was called the Glasspar G-2, and was one of the first successful GRP sports kits. Tritt, along with Woody Woodill, would later develop the first production GRP vehicle, the Woodill Wildfire. Annual sales of fiberglass kit cars such as the Glasspar G2 and Woodill Woodfire were measured in the dozens.\nWhile recounting classic sports car history, mention should be made of Briggs Cunningham. Although he primarily built competition sports cars, rules for Le Mans dictated that the company must also produce road cars, so Cunningham adapted some of his race cars for street use.\nIn 1952, the Cunningham Continental C3 was offered to the public. Starting with a 331ci Chrysler Hemi V-8 fitted to a Cunningham C2R racing chassis, the cars were shipped to Turin, Italy, where they were fitted with aluminum and steel bodies by coach builder Vignale. They were then returned back to the Florida plant for completion. Reportedly 25 Continental C3's were produced.\nAmong the popular early British sports cars were the Austin-Healey 100 and Triumph TR2, both introduced in 1953. Both of these sports cars were designed around existing components to keep costs down.\nDonald Healey's first production sports car was a joint venture with Nash Motors, pairing his frame and aluminum bodies with Nash's 3.8-litre straight-six engines, gearboxes and rear axles. Debuting in 1951, the Nash-Healey was a fast and beautiful car, but a price tag of over $3,700 saw only 507 built in the four years produced.\nThe Kaiser Darrin DKF-161 was the first production fiberglass-bodied sports car in America, beating the Corvette to market by one month. With a body hand-crafted from fiberglass, the 1953/1954 Darrin weighed just 2,175 pounds and had the lowest center of gravity of any American production car at the time.\nNamed for its designer Howard 'Dutch' Darrin, the car's most unique feature was the patented pocket doors that slid forward into the front fenders. Another unique feature was a three-position Landau top. Dutch Darrin had previously designed several classic Packards\nIn 1952, Darrin enlisted the Glasspar Company to make a prototype of a design he built out of clay. The body was fitted onto the chassis of Kaiser's Henry J economy car, with power from a 161ci six-cylinder producing 90-horsepower. Transmission was a three-speed manual with overdrive.\nBy the end of 1954, the Darrin project was terminated, due in large part that the Kaiser company was suffering financially, as were other small American auto companies. In all, less than 500 Kaiser Darrins were built.\nCorvette vs Thunderbird\nIn 1953, the new Chevrolet Corvette combined traditional British roadster with American \"dream car\". The Corvette cost as much as a Jaguar XK, but lacked its performance and handling. Purists scoffed, and limited availability hurt initial sales.\nHad rival Ford not introduced the two-seat Thunderbird, the Corvette would have likely been discontinued after 1955. By adding a few creature comforts and a lot of horsepower, the Corvette soon became successful. So was born the American sports car!\nPowered by the 1991cc four-cylinder engine found in the TR3, the TR3A was upgraded with better seats and outside door handles. A mildly restyled exterior featured a full-length 'wide-mouth' front grille. Triumph TR3A production ran from 1958 to 1962. In that time, 58,236 cars were sold.\nSports cars like the diminutive Austin-Healey Sprite, the mid-engine Lotus Europa, and the rear-engine Fiat 850 Spider serve as reminders that horsepower is not the only factor to winning races.\nLotus Europa at Lane Motor Museum\nMini Cooper and Mini Cooper S\nShortly after the Mini was introduced in 1959, race car builder John Cooper realized the potential of the little car in competition. The 848cc engine from the Morris Mini-Minor was given a longer stroke, a pair of SU carburetors, and a few other tweaks, increasing output to 55 horsepower. Rounding out the performance package, a close-ratio gearbox and front disc brakes were added. To meet homologation rules for Group 2 rally racing, one thousand units of the original Mini Cooper were produced.\nread Classic Mini 1959-2000\nProduced from 1959 to late 1967, the Austin-Healey 3000 was the third in a line of Austin-Healey models commonly referred to as the \"big Healey\" models. It was one of several two-door soft-top roadsters offered to the American public.\nread Austin-Healey 3000\nLotus Elan (1962-1971)\nIntroduced in 1962 as a roadster, the two-seat Lotus Elan was available with an optional hardtop in 1963 and a coupe version was offered in 1965. At 1,600 pounds, the Elan embodied Lotus founder Colin Chapman's minimum weight design philosophy (\"simplify, then add lightness\"). It the first Lotus road car to use a steel backbone chassis with a fiberglass body.\nIntroduced by the BMC (British Motor Corporation) in September 1962, the MGB was larger and more comfortable than the MGA it replaced. The MGB offered both good performance (top speed of 100 mph) and good gas mileage (28 mpg average) at an affordable price.\nThe rear-engine, air-cooled Porsche 911 first appeared in 1965. Weighing just 2,300 pounds, it displayed brisk handling, great braking, and was capable of speeds over 130 mph. The Porsche 911 model continued for decades with yearly improvements, making it the greatest of all classic sports cars in the hearts and minds of many.\nAs beautiful today as when it was introduced in 1961, the Jaguar E-type was designed by aerodynamics engineer Malcolm Sayer. Standard equipment included all-wheel independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and a triple-carburetor DOHC motor. A huge sales success, the majority of cars were shipped to America, where they were sold as the Jaguar XKE.\nRead: Investing In Classic Cars\nWhile most British sports cars were designed with sleek, curved lines, the Triumph TR6 was squared off at both ends. The six-cylinder roadster's combination of style and power helped make it one of the most popular and recognizable cars in Triumph's stable. The TR6 was produced from 1969 to 1975, with most models being sold in the U.S.\nWith performance close to the Porsche 911 at about half the price, the 1970 Datsun 240Z became a popular choice with budget-minded sports car enthusiasts. In 1974, the 240Z engine was enlarged from 2.4 to 2.6 litres, giving the us the 260Z. The latter sold in the United States for the 1974 model year only, but was available in other countries until 1978.\nread Datsun 240Z 260Z History\nBy increasing displacement again, the 260Z became the 280Z. The 280Z was fitted with the Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection system, which helped driveabilty whole complying with U.S. emission laws.\nThe first Mazda RX-7 appeared in 1978 as a 1979 model, with a 1146cc twin-rotor Wankel rotary engine and a front-midship, rear-wheel drive layout.

On August 21st of 1994, I wrecked a 1985 Honda Goldwing. I suffered severe brain injury and was in a coma for six weeks, and in the hospital for three months. Later, I started going to head injury meetings once a month and that\u2019s where I found out about the BRAIN BOOK\u00ae . I learned how to use it with training at Vocational Rehabilitation, and I find it to be very useful in my day-to-day procedures at Central Community College in Hastings where I am relearning parts and sales management.\nA lot of people who suffer a brain injury like I have will have a difficult time with their memory. The BRAIN BOOK\u00ae is very helpful for those with this problem. It is a lot like a dayminder and it has useful things in it, such as medical information, a place for telephone numbers, a progress journal, useful writings to help you when you\u2019re upset, and many more. For example, I write down orders that come in for auto parts, and cross them out as I order them so I know I did it. At the end of the day, I look over everything and make sure I got it done.\nThe main problem that I need to overcome is my control of emotions. There\u2019s no happy medium with my emotions now. I\u2019m either cool, calm and collected, or totally ticked off. Wayne Huntley, my instructor, understands this and is very good with his teaching skills. He can sense if I\u2019m having trouble with something and he\u2019ll move to something else. He also lets me work on each course section when I\u2019m ready, so I don\u2019t\u2019 get as frustrated with sections I have trouble with. I\u2019ve learned that when my mood is going to be in a bad direction, I go to my BRAIN BOOK\u00ae\n. I have a cigarette, go to the UPSET section, write down what ticked me off, then let it sit and circulate in my head. After a while, I think it over again and see if it has the same affect on me as it did before. Generally, it doesn\u2019t. The BRAIN BOOK\u00ae , Central Community College and Vocational Rehabilitation have helped lead me in the right direction toward a new job. During the year before I started using the BRAIN BOOK\u00ae , I tried to kill myself three times. Since then, I haven\u2019t. When you\u2019ve got a job, you\u2019ve got a purpose, you\u2019ve got something to do. Well, it gave me a something-to-do feeling. It will be nice to have a job again and get off social security.\nLet the old saying goes, you will be happier in your day-to-day life if you enjoy your work. I, for one, want to be happier and I will give one hundred and ten percent to get back in the workfield. I will overcome the obstacles that are in front of me. The next tine you hear from me, I will have completed college, have my degree, and also have a very nice job. I won\u2019t go without my BRAIN BOOK\u00ae , though. It\u2019s become like a pair of pants to me. You don\u2019t want to leave home without them or you might get in trouble.\nFor information about the BRAIN BOOK\u00ae Life Management System, visit their website at http://www.brainbook.com or contact Kathy Moeller at 541-779-5646 or toll free at 1-888-272-4666.",

Most accounts of the grand assault focus on General Robert E. Lee\u2019s reasons for making the charge, its preparation, organization, and ultimate failure. Author David Shultz, however, in \u201cDouble Canister at Ten Yards\u201d: The Federal Artillery and the Repulse of Pickett\u2019s Charge, July 3, 1863, focuses his examination on how and why the Union long-arm beat back the Confederate foot soldiers. After two days of heavy fighting on July 1 and 2, 1863, the commander of the Army of the Potomac, Maj. General George G. Meade, correctly surmised General Lee would remain on the offensive on July 3 and strike the Union center on Cemetery Ridge. Meade informed Maj. Gen. Winfield Hancock, whose infantry lined the ridge, that his sector would bear the brunt on the morrow and to prepare accordingly. Meade also warned to his capable chief of artillery, Brig. Gen. Henry J. Hunt, and tasked him with preparing his guns to deal with the approaching assault. Shultz, who has studied Gettysburg for decades and walked every yard of its hallowed ground, uses official reports, letters, diaries, and other accounts to meticulously explain how Hunt and his officers and men worked tirelessly that night and well into July 3 to organize a lethal package of orchestrated destruction to greet Lee\u2019s vaunted infantry in an effort that would be hailed by many historians as \u201cThe High Water Mark of the Confederacy.\u201d The war witnessed many large scale assaults and artillery bombardments, but no example of defensive gunnery was more destructive than the ring of direct frontal and full-flank enfilading fire Hunt\u2019s batteries unleashed upon Lee\u2019s assaulting columns. The iron rain broke and drove back the massed attack within a short time, leaving a fraction of the attacking force to cross the Emmitsburg Road to scale the deadly Ridge.",

        "raw_content": "Interview: Bobcat Goldthwait\nThe Off-Center of the Universe\nBuy Bobcat Goldthwait Movies\nBobcat Goldthwait, 47, has an incredible life story. He became a stand-up comedian as a teenager and landed a slot on David Letterman's show at age 20. He became famous rather quickly for his offbeat delivery (a kind of moaning punctuated by shrieking howls) and his strange antics. He appeared in a string of fairly typical 1980s comedies ranging in quality from the Police Academy films to things like One Crazy Summer and Scrooged. Astonishingly, even toured as the warm-up act for the band Nirvana in the early 1990s. Around that time, he wrote and directed his first film, the black comedy Shakes the Clown, which didn't exactly become a box office smash, but has since become a cult classic, especially among industry people. Before long he re-invented himself as a director. His made Windy City Heat (2003) for television, and his Sleeping Dogs Lie (2006) practically went straight to video, but he found steady employment as a staff director for \"Jimmy Kimmel Live!\" Today he's back with World's Greatest Dad, a very black comedy starring Goldthwait's old pal Robin Williams, and judging from the early response, it looks to be another cult classic at the very least, and a possible sleeper hit besides. Williams plays Lance Clayton, a high school poetry teacher and would-be writer whose awful, hateful son accidentally dies while masturbating; Lance turns the embarrassing death into a suicide by writing a fake, but tragically beautiful suicide note and journal, which has a profound effect on the students and community.\nCombustible Celluloid: You went to high school with Tom Kenny (the voice of \"Spongebob Squarepants\") and have been friends with him ever since, and he has a part in your new movie. You probably don't get to see him very often. He seems awfully busy.\nBobcat Goldthwait: Yeah he's way busier than I am. When he came to this movie, he did a scene with his wife, I was thinking that I should write a movie for him. One, because I think he's so talented, but Two, so we could hang out together.\nCC: You know, World's Greatest Dad is a black comedy, but it doesn't really strike you how black it is while you're watching it. It seems kind of sweet, but it creeps up on you.\nBG: I hope that Lance's character, and some of the things he does, makes sense. That doesn't necessarily mean they're the things you would do, but they might be the things that I would do.\nCC: I was thinking of some of the recent literary \"frauds\" like J.T. Leroy...\nBG: Yeah, and A Million Little Pieces. I wasn't really trying to parody those. I think I was more trying to parody a little bit about celebrity and mostly trying to satirize how, when people die, everybody tries to make it about them and they forget about the actual person. Everybody has to make everything about them. We're a society with the inability to step away and say, 'Hey this isn't about me.' It's like people say, \"I hated Transformers 2.\" Well, you know what? Transformers 2 wasn't made for me. I don't give a shit about Transformers 2. I really couldn't care less. No one can comprehend that maybe this product wasn't made for you. That's why I've jokingly said in the past that if you're really good at \"Guitar Hero,\" then don't go to my movie. It wasn't made for you. Everybody's at the center of the universe. Our culture of American capitalism is that everything is supposed to have the broadest and giant mass appeal. What's really weird is that there's no more counterculture. It's gone. It's really strange. And the reason there's no counterculture is because isn't because it's not needed, but that people today couldn't comprehend that they might need it. They couldn't step back and go, \"Maybe the fact that my burrito is 'extreme' is kind of insane.\" [laughs] What's going on?\nCC: It's true. Recently I was thinking about the whole Joaquin Phoenix thing in relation to the stuff that Andy Kaufman used to do, and the reaction is totally different.\nBG: In American culture, the ultimate goal -- including presidential candidates -- is to go on a talk show. So you go on a talk show and you're Joaquin Phoenix... Why would you go on and be weird on a talk show? Why wouldn't you present yourself in a light that's accessible on a talk show? Because maybe he doesn't want to sell himself anymore. Here's Joaquin. He's the survivor of a cult. His brother has died in this horrible way, and these are things that people want to talk to him about. I'm Joaquin, and I'm going on to promote Two Lovers and people are going to ask me about my dead brother. What would you rather do, grow a beard and act like a kook, or have people bring up painful memories on national television for a product? I can't believe people can't figure that out. Also, he caught the brass ring and maybe he's going, \"Alright, I've been acting for a long time, I've got a really quality body of work, I've got an Academy award [nomination] and I make a lot of money, and this doesn't fill the hole. This doesn't fix me. Hmm.\"\nCC: It makes you wonder why more people don't do that?\nBG: I'm just using poor Joaquin to magnify my own existence. I had a lot of fame, and people knew me and I really got tired of this idea of just being a celebrity for that purpose, because I don't care about that. I was very destructive on certain talk shows because of that. That's why I like Daryl [Sabara], who's in this movie. He's really smart boy. He was 15 when we hired him. He truly just wants to be an actor. He doesn't care about being a celebrity. He's a teenage Gary Oldman. He came in and he was that creepy kid that's in the movie, and that's about as far as you could be from the guy in Spy Kids. I gotta give it up to him because he doesn't disappear in his scenes with Robin Williams. And Robin's a powerful presence, even when he's doing something as subtle as this.\nCC: Robin has had this reputation of being undirectable. You had to have him in a role where he could be immersed, like Moscow on the Hudson, or something loose like Good Morning, Vietnam where he had room to play. Otherwise he just never fits in.\nBG: The difference for me is that I feel that Robin and I made this movie together, rather than Robin Williams was in the movie. And I haven't said that before in an interview. That's really the difference to me. We collaborated. I love all the stuff Robin does. I think people perceive Robin and comedy is that he does a take, the director gets a take, and then they do one where he's ad-libbing. But he and I would talk all the time about the takes, and we would change things, but there was no conflict. Early on in the movie, about a day or two, he goes, \"Oh, I get it. I'm playing you.\" And I go, \"Yeah...\"\nCC: Do you make each other laugh on the set?\nBG: There were some scenes and some days on this movie where the tone was what was in the scenes. We didn't go out of our way to sabotage that. We just kind of said, \"OK, these are some really depressing scenes, and we just stay in that tone and we'll do it.\" I'm very respectful when talent is in a place to let them just get it done. When [Robin's character Lance] falls apart on the talk show. We shot it the way it was written and we were both going, \"this isn't working.\" And I go, \"You know what? Don't even think about anything. Just play this for the absurdity. Not only for the movie, but everything.\" We were both exhausted beyond belief at that point, and we were both going through all this personal stuff. And he loses it. And he said, \"That's the first time I had a breakdown on camera.\" And I said, \"Oh. Wow. That was really awesome. Could you do it again?\" I don't know if I'm a good friend...\nCC: That's a great moment. Robin is doing this brilliant thing where he's kind of laughing insanely and it sounds like crying.\nBG: I was so happy with that. When you're making a movie, every single scene, you're going, \"Oh this shot is reminiscent of this.\" We've seen this scene in X, Y and Z. But when he did that, I was thinking, \"I haven't seen this before.\" And those are the things you get really excited about.\nCC: I'm not sure how much was on the written page, and how much Daryl brought to it, but this was just about the foulest most horrible teenager I've ever seen.\nBG: [Laughs] He's gotta piss on everything. They would get in the zone and finish each other's sentences. They were getting shitty. They were those people. I didn't rehearse a lot, but what I did do is spend a lot of time with them. Just so people could get comfortable, because Robin's one of the biggest stars in the world. We went to dinners a lot and we'd hang out at the school and we'd walk through the scenes -- we'll do this and that -- but we didn't rehearse them. I didn't talk it to death. We did that probably for half a week of eating together and talking. So when it came time to make the movie, there wasn't those first couple of days.\nCC: Robin is one of the biggest stars in the world, but he's also your friend...\nBG: I don't mind giving Robin direction, but when the door opened when I was in the movie, I really went up. I was like, \"Fuck. I'm acting with Robin Williams.\" And he goes, \"You forgot your line, didn't you?\" And I said, \"Dude, I really did.\"\nCC: I like your cameo, by the way.\nBG: I didn't do that to be cheeky. Guillermo Rodriguez from the \"Jimmy Kimmel Show,\" he's actually the parking lot attendant, and when I directed the show he became a good friend of mine, and now he's on the show and he gets laughs. He's a funny guy. I wanted him to fly up and do it, but he couldn't get the day off. So we started casting people, and we couldn't get anyone. So I said, \"Fuck it. I'll do it.\" You know, there's a reason I don't act in these movies. I really hope that I can keep making movies, so I take directing really seriously, so that's why I'd rather not be in front of the camera.\nCC: You've found your calling. This is what you want to do.\nBG: Oh yeah. And that's why I do standup and other things. I do it so I can afford to keep making these movies. I always think it's funny when I see these financially successful movies made by people, and they'll start talking about Cassavetes. And I'm like, \"John Cassavetes would punch you in the face.\" And I'm certainly not trying to compare myself to John Cassavetes, but he would have to mortgage the house to finish the movie. I rent a house now so I can keep making indie movies. I try not to live beyond my means. I have a very stripped-down lifestyle. I'm not wealthy, but I know that I'm way more fulfilled as a person by making these tiny movies that are very personal than being on a reality show or a game show or all the crap that's out there.\nCC: What about working on the \"Jimmy Kimmel Show\"? Was that fulfilling to you?\nBG: I loved it when I was there. It was the first time in my life that I had a regular job. I started doing comedy... I got on Letterman when I was 20, so I never really had a job-job. I was a waiter, and I worked as a janitor at the high school and worked at a grocery store. But I never had a job where I showed up every day and saw the same people and worked together. I really did like that. A lot. I don't have a problem directing stuff for other people. I find that rewarding also.",

        "raw_content": "Interview with James McAvoy\nA Face for Period\nBuy James McAvoy Movies on DVD\nBorn in Glasgow, James McAvoy, 28, has a bit of the regular guy about him. You could run into him at a pub, and there he'd be, smiling and laughing and telling jokes. Yet most of his acting gigs have been in historical pieces, stories set in times other than the present. Before he went to acting school, he briefly considered becoming a priest and joining the navy. (The discovery of girls changed his mind.) He landed his first job in the TV miniseries \"Band of Brothers\" (2001). From there his star rose as he landed jobs in Bright Young Things (2004), Wimbledon (2004), Rory O'Shea Was Here (2005), as Mr. Tumnus, the Faun in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005), The Last King of Scotland (2006), and earlier this year, Starter for 10 and Becoming Jane. His new film, Atonement is already awash with Oscar buzz. Directed by Joe Wright and adapted from the novel by Ian McEwan, it tells the story of a fateful summer day in 1930s England. A young girl, Briony (Saoirse Ronan) sees something that causes her to interfere with the lives of her sister (Keira Knightley) and her sister's lover (James McAvoy), and her actions have long-standing repercussions. The film's first half covers one day, then the second half adheres to a larger canvas, including a celebrated 5-minute long tracking shot of the Dunkirk evacuation. Mr. McAvoy recently visited with San Francisco journalists to talk about the film.\nQ: After seeing The Last King of Scotland, Becoming Jane and even The Chronicles of Narnia, you seemed to have this sideline of men who knew how bad they were, or men who were aware of their own failings. Was it a relief to jump into something more straightforward?\nJM: It wasn't a relief in any way. I find comfort when I'm playing people with internal conflict, when I'm playing men who are arseholes or pricks and kind of know it, or they know they're doing something bad. And in this role I wasn't really able to do any of that. Every character I've ever played is based on internal conflict. And I love doing that because I think it's very human. And I found this character quite... he wasn't particularly representative of the human race because he's so good. And he has so little conflict in him. I didn't really recognize him as a member of the human race. He is a slightly idealized human figure. And it's necessary really, because it's a tragedy. But there are so many flawed characters in it, and to have a tragedy work you have to have bad things happen to good people. And he becomes flawed. He becomes somebody who's much more suicidal, and strangely more representative of the human race. But for the first half of the film, it was a worry of mine that I wasn't going to be able to portray him in an interesting fashion.\nQ: Your character in a way is a figment at times, and his fate is at the mercy of another. You had to play a character that was sometimes physically present and sometimes not physically present.\nJM: I think in terms of playing when is it real and when is it not, and when is it a figment and when is it not, as an actor you ask those questions and you wonder whether to play with reality. But the decision was made for us because we all had to do it. So it was important that every actor had the same understanding, so the decision was made by the director to play it all as if it were real. It was a strange one. It was difficult. I think there's only one scene in which he's a complete creation, and that's the one in which he lambastes her, and he all but kills her. I wish he had killed her. I'm of the opinion that she should burn in hell.\nQ: Did you get that from watching the movie or during the making of the movie?\nJM: No, I wanted to go further in making the film. But I knew I shouldn't. I knew I was just being selfish. Sometimes you want to go further, but generally if you're an actor who isn't afraid to go beg for it, which I don't think I am, you have to be aware that you might just go too far. I think the characters are very expressive but not actively expressive. The social restrictions of the time dictate that over-expressing is a bad thing. So it's like he's punched the shite out of her anyway, even though he's not laid a finger on her. We've not seen an outburst like that in the film. So I went as far as I could have gone.\nQ: I wonder if you could talk about the research, talking to war veterans, reading the book, living on the grounds while you were shooting. What of those things could you put to work in your performance?\nJM: All of them. I could put them all into my performance. Meeting war veterans is very important. I've done a lot of research. I've played a lot of soldiers, British and American. I did more research in terms of books, but the single most valuable thing was meeting a couple of veterans, who didn't say that much. They didn't say many facts or tell many stories that went funny. At one point I asked one of the guys, 'did you ever see any of your friends killed?' His girlfriend put her hand on his knee and leaned forward and said, 'we don't talk about that.' It was very moving. At the end, after saying very little about what went on, he kind of just walked up to me and said, 'when you're making this film, just know how terrible it really was.' And it cost that guy a hell of a lot to say that. And that emotional truth I didn't get from any amount of documentation or first person accounts. That was very important. The book was very important. I've done a lot of adaptations of books, and this one is a very faithful one. So the book was very important. It was something I used a lot. In The Last King of Scotland, the character was so different, that I was asked by the director to set aside the book because it was getting in the way. Staying on the grounds, all the actors stayed in one house together with some of the key crew members and Joe the director, and it was just off-site. I decided not to, partly because I'd been to drama school and I couldn't be bothered. I've lived in a mad house, and also partly because my character is so separate. A lot of the characters in the film are from an upper class background, or posh. And I'm not and I didn't have any problem with that, and that's not why I didn't stay in the house. I'm not a method actor in any way, but I just thought it might be useful to keep myself separate. I'd go up there for dinner once or twice a week, and the invitation was always open for me to go, but in my head I tried to slightly just pretend that I was only going up when I was invited. I was there at their convenience. And that really helped.\nQ: You've done a lot of period pieces. Is there something about history pieces that attracts you?\nJM: Not particularly. The thing that attracts me to all the jobs I've done over the last few years was the offer of employment. I've had to audition for every single job I've ever done, I think. So it's not just a question of being attracted. Yes, I like the things I've done, and I've been very luck that the things I've done -- I think -- have a certain level of quality. But had I only got parts that were rubbish, I'd be doing them as well, because I'm an actor and I need the work. But I'm getting a little more choice. When I read The Last King of Scotland, I thought this is excellent, and I'd be very lucky to get this. That was my choice, but afterward I still had to convince somebody else to choose me. But as for period, I don't know why. Maybe I've got a face for period. I've no idea why I keep getting cast in period things. But I enjoy it.\nQ: Given that American and the UK have very different perspectives on class, do you think the film will play differently for American audiences than it does for British ones?\nJM: I think so. I don't think that the class system exists in Britain the way that it did then, in this film. It still does exist, though. Every time I think that it's completely been abolished, I meet someone who reminds me that, even though I have a very middle-class and kind of jet-set lifestyle, I'm still from the working class. I think the difference is that we're fascinated by it. It's not so much that it's immediately evident; it's just that we're fascinated by it. And I think that Americans are slightly less fascinated by class and maybe more fascinated by money. And largely they're the same thing. This film isn't about class, though class is a part of it. It's about storytelling.\nQ: You've said that this film has made you a better actor. Can you please talk about this?\nJM: I think the stylistic choice for all the actors to somehow emulate the acting style of actors of the 1930s. We went down an avenue that most of us had never been down before. I'm an actor that, I take great joy in employing different styles to tell different stories. The way I see it is that you don't become the character, you become a different actor for each film. Sometimes you go over it several times, but I've been very lucky to constantly change style. And this was probably one of the most enjoyable styles, but it only works when you've got an incredible script, because it's about not actively expressing. So you've got to have a really well drawn, clear story and beautifully-drawn characters. When I read this script I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. The only other time I've felt like that is with The Chronicles of Narnia, and that's because I read the book many times from the age of seven.\nQ: Was there anything that you watched or read while preparing for Atonement that really stuck with you?\nJM: I think that one that we are all really honest about, the fact that we stole from Brief Encounter. Which, really, is just a master class in acting, and script, and directing. Just incredible. It's beautiful. We nicked a lot from that. We definitely tried to steal the acting style from those guys.\nQ: To what extent did you have any actual training as a soldier? Because there isn't a lot of action...\nJM: Very little. We got a couple of days marching and a couple of days weapons training, but it wasn't necessary, I don't think. But then we've all played a lot of soldiers. I know how you march and I know how you turn on a spot, and I know how you hold a rifle. The most interesting is when you work with older actors, who were around when National Service was still up and everybody did two years in the army. They always know what they're doing. They're great. It's great when you have older actors around who can show you how to march. I love that. But those guys are kind of fading out now.\nQ: How did you get into the zone for that Steadicam shot, the Dunkirk sequence?\nJM: It was easy to get in the zone. But because it was such a feat of planning and collaboration, it was really important to remind yourself that, as much as it was an acting task, there were probably 1500 people involved making that shot work. And any one of them at any time, including you, could royally screw it up. And the stakes were really high because he had one day to shoot it, and we only did 3-1/2 takes. We had to rehearse the entire day; it was such a logistical nightmare. So you were trying to act truthfully, but you had one eye on where the camera is. And that guy is going to walk across the camera and it's really important they you can see \"Lyndie London\" on the back of the boat beside my head, and if he crosses at that point, you're not going to see it, so I'm going to move a wee bit this way. And the actors were helping create the shot because everything was constantly moving and nothing was ever the same way twice. It was an incredible day. People say, 'it must have been very emotional, very moving.' It was. Half of your brain is engaged in that, but half of your brain is just trying to get the job done. And it wasn't until we watched that scene two days later in a caf\ufffd just off that beach that the emotional impact hit home. I was in a room with a hundred of the crew and everybody was in floods of tears, completely independent of the rest of the story, the rest of the movie. I'll never be in anything like that again. If I am, I'll be very lucky. I am very lucky.",

        "title": "Aren\u2019t We All Confederates?",
        "raw_content": "Aren\u2019t We All Confederates?\nA reader just posted this comment in response to the last post that featured a crucial section of Florida\u2019s declaration of causes following its secession from the United States. One of things that I\u2019ve learned over the years is that differences in interpretation often have little to do with strictly historical concerns, but with much broader assumptions about the nature of power and the relationship between citizens and government. This is a perfect example:\nWhat do you base your concerns on the Government by? Isn\u2019t it based largely on what has already taken place with a real and present estimation on what might happen? You surely vote. Is not your vote a gamble, on what good or calamity might happen if you choose one candidate vs. another? Consider this has a group, political candidate or party ever threatened your livelihood and well being? Are you so different from being a Confederate, that if a very real threat affected your very livelihood and families well being, that you would not defend them? They did so in accordance with the laws and the Constitution. When their rights were threatened they seceded.\nThe questions point to a picture of government that I have real trouble identifying with. While I believe a healthy skepticism about federal power and our elected officials is essential to any democracy, this seems to border on paranoia. I live in a democracy and I do my best to ensure that my voice is heard through elections and other forms of political activism. I don\u2019t necessarily view the election of someone I disagree with as a \u201ccalamity\u201d since their terms of service are not indefinite. My government is not my enemy. Of course I have strongly disagreed with actions taken by my government in recent years that straddle party lines, but at no point have I ever entertained nullification or secession as a solution. Our system of government is not perfect, but it has served us pretty well so far and I can see no reason to alter it beyond its amendment.\nWhat I now understand is that my disagreement with this individual over how to interpret Florida\u2019s declaration has little to do with whether slavery was or was not central. What do you think?\nOne can go round and round indefinitely over whether or not secession was \u201clegal\u201d under the Constitution in 1860-61. The Constitution itself is silent on the matter; it was an unsettled question then, and remains unsettled for many today.\nWhat\u2019s important to understand is that heated arguments over the legality of secession, or \u201cstates\u2019 rights,\u201d or nullification, never take place in a vacuum. Never. They arise and gain traction with large segments of the population (fire-eaters, segregationists, the Tea Party) when they\u2019re torqued about some specific thing that, in their minds, presents a direct and immediate threat to what they see as the proper order of things. That was true in the 1850s, it was true in the 1950s, and it\u2019s true today. You cannot divorce the philosophical/legal arguments over secession or states\u2019 rights from the current events that happen to drive them at the moment.\nThe secession conventions in the (self-defined) \u201cslave-holding states\u201d didn\u2019t act as they did in support of some abstract political principle or some vague notion about unequal \u201cpower\u201d; they did so because they had convinced themselves that Northern states, and particularly the new administration in Washington, had become implacably hostile to the institution of slavery, and leaving the Union was the only way they could see to protect it, and the property rights that went along with it. They were explicitly clear about this, over and over again, and modern efforts to gloss that over with vague talk about \u201cpower\u201d and \u201cstates\u2019 rights\u201d and the supposed legality of secession badly misrepresent their stated beliefs and motivations at the time. Remembering (or honoring, if you prefer) those people and their actions requires that we do so accurately, and that include not not only the legal/political principles they embraced, but also the specific, concrete issues that drove them to do so.\nModern apologists for the Confederacy go to great lengths to look past Lincoln\u2019s actual words and actions to expose what they claim his \u201creal\u201d motivations to have been; a little of that same scrutiny applied to those below the Mason-Dixon Line would go a long way.\nJoe Reinhart Jan 11, 2012 @ 7:26\nHow did the Tea Party get in with fire-eaters and segregationists? They are concerned about high government debt.\nThey cite much the same political philosophy regarding states\u2019 rights and nullification. The specific issues at hand change, but my point is that arguments about states\u2019 rights (or secession, or nullification) are always driven by something specific and concrete. When they reach the level of broad public discourse, they\u2019re no longer about a political or philosophical principle, but about something real and tangible that has large groups of people torqued at that moment.\nML\u2019s argument would have us see ourselves as occupying the same historical space as Americans in 1860-61. Perhaps in some abstract sense we do, but we are certainly not engaged in a debate about the same substantive issues.\nHis argument comes down to: Southerners seceded to defend their right to secession.\nthis section of the CONUS Art VI is very clear and unambiguous\nan ordinance of secession is something in the[State] Constitution and [State] laws that is quite contrary to the CONUS being the supreme law of the land, it need not include the redundancy of saying \u201cand that includes secession\u201d.\nJ. L. Bell Jan 11, 2012 @ 16:58\nThe Constitution was a revision of the Articles of Confederation\u2014or, to use its full formal title, the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union. Inside that document as well as in the title it said that the union of American states was \u201cperpetual\u201d. The Constitution was designed to make that union \u201cmore perfect\u201d. It took force after adoption by only nine of the existing states instead of all because the Articles already bound those states into a single nation.\nLyle Smith Jan 11, 2012 @ 8:50\nI think secession in 1860 and 1861 was not paranoia. I may be wrong, but I think that is what the guy is getting at.\nJoe Reinhart Jan 11, 2012 @ 11:16\nFollowing is a source that enumerates the Tea Party Principles. Please advise me where it mentions states rights and nullification. In fact, the Tea Party strongly supports the Constitution. I am not a member but believe they are often misrepresented by the media.\nYou can see the principles at http://www.thecontract.org/the-contract-from-america/ It has ten planks, articulated as follows: Protect the Constitution, Reject Cap & Trade, Demand a Balanced Budget, Enact Fundamental Tax Reform, Restore Fiscal Responsibility and Constitutionally Limited Government in Washington, End Runaway Government Spending, Defund, Repeal and Replace Government-run Health Care, Pass an \u2018All-of-the-Above\u2019 Energy Policy, Stop the Pork, and Stop the Tax Hikes.\nJoe, you doth protest too much. There\u2019s plenty of Tea Party rhetoric out there about states\u2019 rights, nullification, and so on. A combined search on Google for \u201cTea Party\u201d and \u201cstates rights\u201d gets me over two million hits. Hell, my own governor was going around making jokes about secession until someone pointed out that people weren\u2019t, you know, laughing with him. It\u2019s all there in the mix, regardless of whether it happens to be mentioned in that particular document you cite.\nMy point here is not to slam the Tea Party, but to reiterate what I said above \u2014 when people undertake large actions en masse, whether it\u2019s secession in 1860-61, or mass rallies on the National Mall in 2009, it\u2019s never driven by simple commitment to an abstract political philosophy; it\u2019s driven by those people\u2019s opposition to something specific and concrete.\nThe Tea Party movement is not seriously secessionist. That\u2019s a nonsensical position. Rand Paul is the closest thing to a Tea Party senator there is and he\u2019s not talking the same talk that John C. Calhoun and fire-eating congressmen did. The movement just doesn\u2019t have a John C. Calhoun or a Preston Brooks; you know, actual elected politicians who are actual elected Tea Partiers.\nRick Perry\u2019s comment was a one-off hyperbolic statement that\u2019s been over intellectualized by some people. It has aroused absolutely nothing as far as an actual secessionist/nullification movement.\nThe Tea Party hardly has a voice in actual politics, be it Federal or state. States just aren\u2019t going to go all South Carolina over debt and balancing the budget.\nSo have no fear Andy the State of Texas will not be seceding anytime soon. \ud83d\ude09\nWhew, that\u2019s a relief. But, don\u2019t feel obligated to send Perry back anytime soon. No rush on that one.\nI understand the Tea Party isn\u2019t seriously secessionist. I actually don\u2019t think most \u201creal\u201d secessionists are, either. It\u2019s just easier (and far more fun) to fantasize about how awesome things will be one we\u2019re out from under the oppressive yoke of the empire, than to buckle down and actually fix the various problems we\u2019ve actually got to deal with. I could spend all day thinking about how I want the kitchen in my dream house to be, but that\u2019s not fixing the leak I\u2019ve got right now under the sink, you know?\nI\u2019m sure Andy Hall is correct wrt the US, and this is quite off-topic, but I think this headline from a UK satirical website sums up the situation here: \u201cIndependent Scotland will be just the same, warn experts\u201d.\nLeave a Reply to Joe Reinhart\tCancel reply\nNext post: Dwight T.

        "raw_content": "Home Page < Bartokiana < Abstracts\nBart\u00f3kiana - Abstracts\nRepresenting Gender in the Performative Arts\nThe Feminine Side of the Musical Mind\n[Plenary Lecture]\nIn this exploration of the musical world of composers Sofia Gubaidulina (b.1931), Kaija Saariaho (b. 1952) and Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179), I take three themes as a guide: a) the mystery and the power of invention, b) the effect of external impediments on the musical mind, and c) the conceptual foundation of each composer\u2019s oeuvre.\nIt is in a few pages of a male composer\u2019s journal that these three themes illuminate the workings of a musical mind; French Romantic composer Hector Berlioz (1803-1869) describes in them the appearance, in a dream, of a symphony, and his voluntary renunciation to remembering it and writing it down, due to unfortunate family circumstances [La Symphonie r\u00eav\u00e9e et oubli\u00e9e]. He gives a passionate defense of his decision. Unfortunate circumstances and the sacrifice of artistic creation are a destiny more commonly attributed to the lives of talented female musicians.\nAnd yet Sofia Gubaidulina - with her Russian/Tatar roots, educated in an isolated region, later enduring the oppressive Soviet climate and the endless obstructions - was blessed with a mind that \u201chad consumed all impediments,\u201d to use Virginia Woolf\u2019s words. Several examples are used in this presentation to demonstrate the mastery of her instrumentation, the originality of invention, and her deep spirituality.\nThere is a great deal of literature that has explored the social and cultural mechanisms which have hindered musical creation by women, a creation that never became equivalent to their achievement in literature, poetry and the fine arts. My suggestion is that there may be also hidden forces that determine the timing for the flourishing of certain types of art: why did the Symphony of the Baroque times vanish in Italy and composers only wrote operas? Glenn Gould called attention to the fact that great theatre/drama disappeared after Shakespeare only to return in the form of the classical Sonata and the Symphony.\nPerhaps the time for \u2018great\u2019 women composers has come.\nFinnish composer Kaija Saariaho has broken the prejudice that sees female invention excelling only in small forms, by presenting her operas internationally to great acclaim. Her masterful use of electronic sounds has captivated audiences. A CD-ROM she has \u2018composed\u2019 with her husband, an engineer, permits one to improvise and explore the vast range of her skills and poetic imagination, and is used in my presentation.\nIn the 12th century, Hildegard of Bingen\u2019s musical energies survived St. Paul\u2019s admonition \u201cMulier in ecclesia taceat\u201d (Let women keep silence in church). It was in the early 1980s that the \u2018visions\u2019 of Hildegard of Bingen were resurrected and she became both a \u2018presence\u2019 with the recordings of her exquisite compositions, and a great female example of a polymath.\nThe film \u2018Vision\u2019 presented at the September 2009 Toronto International Film Festival splendidly portrays the life of Abbess Hildegard, the times, the sounds, the pace. The director, Margarethe von Trotta, used only original texts and music. Some scenes from this film will conclude my presentation.\nMy suggestion to revisit, to update, and to expand the ideas I had first presented at the 1989 conference on Women and Reason, held at the University of Western Ontario, was very warmly received by the organizers of the Groningen conference on Gender in the Arts. In that brief paper I had explored the art and science of composition as manifested by female musical minds. The title had referred to \u2018Athena and Euterpe,\u2019 respectively the goddess of wisdom and the Muse of musicians, and I examined not the famous talented \u2018victims\u2019 (Clara Schumann, Fanny Mendelssohn, Alma Mahler) who struggled in an androcentric musical environment, but women composers who had received excellent training together with encouragement and recognition (Pulitzer Prize, Prix de Rome, etc.)\nThe letter of invitation from Groningen University acknowledged my \u2018pioneering efforts\u2019 at a time (from my 1967 appointment onward) when in my field an \u2018interdisciplinary\u2019 approach did not yet enjoy academic recognition. To revisit my old ideas now, in 2009, means to be able to present musical examples with today\u2019s miraculous technology that makes it possible to weave sound, images, and narrative simultaneously, in an imaginative and persuasive way that was never possible to achieve before.\nI anticipated that after my speech discussion would focus on still existing social/cultural \u2018impediments,\u2019 on the crucial educational environments, and on media support. My contribution comprised the following information:\nIn 1989 the name of Sofia Gubaidulina had appeared for the first time in Canada on a CBC orchestral program from Montreal, with violinist Gidon Kremer premiering her Offertorium. With some taped examples from it, at the Women and Reason conference I introduced the audience to this extraordinary new voice, belonging to one who in her artistic development had surmounted hardships unimaginable to her North American colleagues. The international admiration Gubaidulina\u2019s work has enjoyed since, the numerous awards she has received, challenge the persistent view of female compositional genius being still hindered and diminished by various social mechanisms. [This view was taken up and developed at the Groningen conference, albeit effectively and charmingly, by two American scholars whose session I chaired].\nOne aspect of Kaija Saariaho\u2019s musical development concerns her early training in the superior music education programs enjoyed by all Finnish school children. The wisdom and far-sightedness of the cultural and political leaders who established this system has enriched the musical world with all the artists (conductors, performers, composers) that have emerged during the last decades in such a small nation. It has also provided the musicians in Finland with an audience of well-informed interlocutors. In my life as an educator in Canada, it was a similar vision that I had advocated, through the years, across the country.\nPart of today\u2019s technological miracles was the possibility to include and discuss in my presentation some scenes from the film \u2018Vision\u2019 on the life of Hildegard of Bingen that was presented at the September 2009 Toronto International Film Festival.",

        "raw_content": "Pope to new cardinals: Defend dignity of others\nCardinals take place prior to a consistory in St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican, Thursday, June 28, 2018. Pope Francis will make 14 new Cardinals during the consistory. (AP Photo/Alessandra Tarantino)\nVATICAN CITY (AP) \u2014 Pope Francis on Thursday gave the church 14 new cardinals, exhorting them to resist temptations toward vanity and to stay on mission, which he specified means serving the needy instead of their own interests.\nAmong those receiving the cardinals\u2019 biretta, or crimson-red square cap with three ridges, was his point man for helping Rome\u2019s homeless and poor. Polish Monsignor Konrad Krajewski has handed out sleeping bags to those spending frigid nights on the Italian capital\u2019s streets and driven vans taking the poor on seaside daytrips arranged by the Vatican.\nIt\u2019s an example of the kind of churchman the pope wants, and the choices reflect Francis\u2019 determination that the church be known for tireless attention to those on society\u2019s margins.\nIn his homily, Francis told the new cardinals to avoid the \u201cquest of honors, jealousy, envy, intrigue, accommodation and compromise.\u201d\n\u201cWhat does it gain the world if we are living in a stifling atmosphere of intrigues that dry up our hearts and impede our mission?\u201d the pope asked during the ceremony at St. Peter\u2019s Basilica. He lamented the \u201cpalace intrigues that take place, even in curial offices.\u201d\n\u201cWhen we forget the mission, when we lose sight of the real faces of our brothers and sisters, our life gets locked up in the pursuit of our own interests and securities,\u201d Francis said. \u201cThe church\u2019s authority grows with this ability to defend the dignity of others, to anoint them and to heal their wounds and their frequently dashed hopes.\u201d\nAfter the ceremony, the pope and the new cardinals traveled to the monastery on Vatican City grounds where Benedict XVI, who retired from the papacy in 2013, lives. The Vatican said that \u201cafter a brief greeting and the blessing of Pope Benedict,\u201d the new cardinals headed to receptions in their honor, attended by family, friends and other well-wishers.\nThe new cardinals include Iraqi churchman Louis Raphael I Sako, the Baghdad-based patriarch of Babylonia of the Chaldeans.\nSako told Francis at the start of the ceremony that he welcomed the pope\u2019s \u201cspecial attention\u201d to the \u201csmall flock who make up the Christians in the Middle East, in Pakistan and in other countries who are undergoing a difficult period due to the wars and sectarianism and where there are still martyrs.\u201d\nA Pakistani prelate, Joseph Coutts, archbishop of Karachi, is another new cardinal.\nSex abuse scandals involving pedophile priests and cover-ups by high-ranking prelates in many countries have stained their reputation in the eyes of many rank-and-file faithful.\nAddressing his \u201cdear brother cardinals and new cardinals,\u201d the pope said that the \u201conly credible form of authority is born of sitting at the feet of others in order to serve Christ.\u201d\nWith Thursday\u2019s ceremony, there are 74 cardinals named by Francis during his 5-year-old papacy. In comparison, 77 of the cardinals named by John Paul II during his 26 years as pope are still members of the College. Pope Benedict XVI, Francis\u2019 predecessor, named 75 cardinals.\nCardinals younger than 80 are eligible to vote for the next pope in a conclave, when a current pope either resigns or dies. In this context, Francis\u2019 picks for cardinal dominate that group: there are 125 cardinals currently young enough to be electors, with 59 of them appointed by Francis, 47 of them by Pope Benedict XVI, his predecessor, and 19 who were named by John Paul.\nThere are 101 cardinals who are too old to participate in selecting a pope. These include three who were made cardinals on Thursday.\nFrancis\u2019 picks have reflected his attention to countries located far from the Vatican after centuries of European dominance of the ranks of cardinals. The batch honored in Thursday\u2019s ceremonies includes churchmen from Peru, Madagascar and Japan, which has a tiny minority of Catholics.\nIn a sign of the pope\u2019s attention to ordinary people\u2019s suffering, the archbishop of L\u2019Aquila, an Italian mountain town devastated by a 2009 earthquake, is among the newest cardinals.\nTagsCatholicism Chaldean homepage featured Pakistan Patriarch Louis Raphael Sako Pope Francis Top Story",

Ms. Cannaday believes the club isn\u2019t as popular because \u201cIt\u2019s just playing a game, not something that will look good on students\u2019 resumes.\u201d\nFreshman Jayden [last name] said she likes the club because the long time players of Dungeons and Dragons teach those who may be new to the game. Jayden joined because her friend was in the club and decided to give it a shot. Games Club meets every Monday and Wednesday to play Dungeons and Dragons from 2:35 to 3:45 pm. Students are encouraged to come by and check it out.\nThe Gay Straight Alliance Club (Thursdays at 3pm) Room B205\nMrs. Braun and Mr. Mroszinski are the sponsors of the Gay Straight Alliance here at Greenway high school. It all started 10 years ago when students asked to use her room as a safe place for the LGBT+ community and its supporters.\n\u201cI never considered saying no and pushing kids out of my room,\u201d Braun said. When asked why she believes there aren\u2019t that many active members involved, she said that it is because some parents may feel not okay with it. She goes on to explain students think they have to be part of the LGBT+ community or have to be out which is not the case.\n\u201cAnyone who supports the community or is part of the community can join,\u201d she said. Mrs. Braun also said that \u201cpeople are involved in a lot of after school activities and simply don\u2019t have time to come.\u201d\nGSA is an easygoing club that doesn\u2019t require showing up every week. In the club, people hang out, play games, and become more educated on the LGBT+ community.\nGreen Club (Fridays 2:40-3pm) Room E210\nGreen Club is another small club here at Greenway. Science teacher Mr. Feiring leads the club, along with Kelly Cordes and Sarah Caveness. President Kelly Cordes said the best thing about the club is Mr. Feiring, going on field trips, hanging with friends, and learning how to save the Earth. (Sarah Caveness (left and Kelly Cordes right are pictured below).\nWhen asked why she thinks the club only has about eight active members, Vice President Sarah Cavaness said, \u201cPeople just don\u2019t care about the Earth. After lunch it\u2019s a mess. Also, I think people don\u2019t understand the club.\u201d\nKelly and Sarah also believe because the club meets on a Friday less people come. \u201cPeople are busy or don\u2019t want to do stuff on a Friday, but they don\u2019t realize that the club only lasts for 10-15 minutes many times. I think people should at least come to one meeting (to check it out),\u201d said Cordes.\nGreen Club meets every Friday after school to talk about how to help the Earth. The club has two drives every year to clean up water bottles, and they also go on a few field trips. Last year they went to Glendale Gardens and the BioDome. It\u2019s a great way to help make the environment a better place.\nYouth Alive (Wednesdays 8:15-8:55am) Room E202\nA club that is growing again in numbers at our school is Youth Alive. Youth Alive is a Christian club led by Barkot Surafel and sponsor Mrs. Walth.\nMrs. Walth has been the leader for a couple years after a student, now out of college, asked her to be the leader. Senior Barkot Surafel believes the club doesn\u2019t have that many people because it starts early on Wednesday mornings.\nMrs. Walth agreed and said, \u201cThat\u2019s when students go to teachers for help. A couple years go we had about 50 to 60 students show up.\u201d\nBarkot said she likes the club because it\u2019s cool to meet people that share a common faith with her.\n\u201cThe club gives me a morning start filled with knowledge about God,\u201d said Freshman Kiany Rodriguez. Youth Alive is where Christians can meet to worship, pray, and join in fellowship every Wednesday from 8:15 to 8:55 am.",

        "raw_content": "Our farm experience is undergoing a lot of transitions right now. One of them is discovering that the name we\u2019ve been using\u2013in fact the name my in-laws have been using for decades\u2013has been the registered trade name of another farm in Ohio since 2010. Needless to say, this created something of a moment of existential crisis for us, especially given all the other transitions we\u2019re undergoing at the same time.\nSo, we\u2019re kind of in limbo right now. We think we\u2019ve found a new name\u2013one that gives credit to the old while also not breaking the law\u2013but we\u2019re not going to tell anyone what it is until we\u2019re sure. Then, it will be time to change a bunch of things in order to make it all legit.\nBut what\u2019s in a name?\nPosted in Challenges, Law, Lessons, Ohio\t| Tagged crises, existence, names\t| Leave a reply\nThe one thing everyone can do\nPosted on May 4, 2010 by dlhitzeman\nThis morning, I read about a bill under consideration by the US Senate that would, if the language in it holds true, essentially criminalize local food producers by forcing them to register with regulatory agencies in the same way that industrial food companies must.\nReading about this bill once again struck home for me how far Americans have drifted from simple, elegant truths about life. In this era of high unemployment and ongoing economic instability, the one thing that everyone can do is grow their own food. I know this is a remarkable idea to millions of Americans, but it is also true.\nAnyone with a patch of grass or a place to set up a few pots of soil can grow their own food, sometimes amazing quantities of it if one does it right. A seasoned garden grain farmer can grow enough wheat on a 100 square foot patch of ground to make 100 loaves of bread from the resulting harvest. That\u2019s a 10\u00d710 or 20\u00d75 foot patch of wheat that can provide bread for a family of four for a year.\nUnfortunately, most Americans recoil at the idea of providing their own food. They recoil at the labor. They recoil at the dirt. They recoil at the insinuation that growing their own food implies they can\u2019t buy it.\nSo, what they get instead is 100 little emperors crafting a law that will force them to buy their food from sources approved by a federal agency, sources one can never visit, whose processes are industrial secrets, and whose products are dubious as food at best.\nMeanwhile, the 20 percent or more of Americans who are un- or under-employed continue to depend on the same government to let them go to the imperially mandated food sources to get their daily allotment of government inspected and approved foodstuffs never realizing that, in the time it took them to go to the unemployment office and the grocery store, they could have cultivated a wonderful, nutritious garden for another day. Plus, they would have gotten some badly needed exercise and exposure to sunlight along the way.\nI understand that, especially with the interstate transport of industrially produced food, the government needs to regulate the safety of what industrial food producers manufacture, but what does that have to do with small food producers whose products often travel less than 100 miles and usually not out of the state where they were produced? I understand that growing one\u2019s own food may not pay the bills, but if the law is passed, even if one is good at it, one won\u2019t have the chance to try because Imperial Washington has decreed one cannot.\nOf course, they way to fix this problem is to contact one\u2019s senators and ask them to scrap this terrible legislation then, if one really believes in the idea behind why it is bad, go home and plant, cultivate, and harvest. Everyone can do it, even if the government does not get the idea.\nPosted in Law, Self-sufficiency\t| Tagged food production, Law, philosophy, senate\t| Leave a reply",

January 4, SecurityWeek \u2013 (International) Pseudo-Darkleech remains prominent distributor of ransomware. Palo Alto Networks security researchers reported that the pseudo-Darkleech campaign is expected to remain a prominent ransomware distributor in 2017 after finding the campaign\u2019s operators were able to quickly adapt to major exploit kit (EK) and ransomware landscape changes during 2016 to maintain the high level of attacks and to ensure the campaign remained relevant. The researchers found, however, that the pseudo-Darkleech campaign\u2019s infection method remains the same, in that it directs a victim who visits a compromised Website with malicious script to an EK landing page designed to fingerprint the device to find vulnerable applications and exploit them.\nSource: http://www.securityweek.com/pseudo-darkleech-remains-prominent-distributer-ransomware\n19. January 4, SecurityWeek \u2013 (International) Google researcher finds certificate flaws in Kaspersky products. Kaspersky Lab resolved two flaws in its anti-malware products after a Google Project Zero security researcher found the products were plagued with a critical flaw related to how Kaspersky Antivirus inspects Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) connections that could allow an attacker to intercept all traffic to a certain domain by sending the targeted Kaspersky Antivirus user two certificates with the same key. The researcher also found a high severity flaw involving improper protection of the private key for the local certificate authority (CA) root which could allow any unprivileged user to become a CA.

January 4, SecurityWeek \u2013 (International) XSS flaws decline, DoS becomes more common: Imperva. Imperva analyzed Web application vulnerability trends in 2016, and found that the total number of vulnerabilities discovered since 2015 has increased, while the number of issues impacting Web applications has declined potentially due to a shift in research focus, and not due to Web applications being more secure than before. Imperva found that more than 25 percent of flaws observed were classified as high priority, and that the number of denial-of-service (DoS) bugs has significantly increased, but the amount of cross-site scripting (XSS) flaws has declined, among other findings.

It widens the scope of what is accessible while helping democratize education.\nBy sharing and adapting educational materials, content acquisition costs can be cut dramatically, allowing educational institutions to make better use of available resources. In educational contexts in which students are responsible for the costs of educational resources (e.g., textbooks), assigning OER results in significant cost savings and removes an important barrier to access.\nResources to address new standards\nWith the widespread adoption of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), conditions are ripe to explore the use of OER that may be adapted to align with these new standards. Some of the cost savings formerly associated with content acquisition may be redistributed to this work and associated professional learning.\nRapidly update content\nOER quality improves over time by enabling continuous adaptation and updating of learning resources. This improvement cycle contrasts with traditional materials that typically have to be used by students for several years until a new edition is published or even the next purchasing cycle.\nAdaptable for personalized learning\nOER create powerful opportunities by enabling educators to use, develop, share, and adapt quality OER to meet their local context and their students\u2019 unique needs.\nAs districts look to shift to a one-to-one computing environment, OER is a cost-effective way to provide digital content (Source).\nBenefits, access, cost, standards, reuse, update, quality, OER, sharing, adaptable, personalized learning, technology, leverage",

        "raw_content": "Preparing Students with ASD for Inclusive Classrooms: A Case Study of Giant Steps\nBrock_Smith_Katlynne_2015.pdf (1.346Mb)\nSmith, Katlynne\nGiant Steps is a therapeutic school for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) founded in 1995 by a group of parents who felt that the public school system was not fully able to meet the needs of their children. While the education system has progressed through the years to offer all students with access to public education, many educators still are not adequately prepared to provide inclusive learning environments for students with ASD. Given the prevalence of ASD in southern Ontario (1 in every 42 boys and 1 in every 189 girls), research on ASD and inclusive practices is both vital and timely. The purpose of this qualitative case study is to understand how the Giant Steps program prepares and transitions students with ASD for inclusive classrooms. Data was collected through two rounds of in-depth interviews, and was subsequently analyzed and interpreted into research findings that are presented through three major themes (i.e., unique program aspects, holistic approach, inclusion not integration). Collectively, the themes provide insights about how students at Giant Steps are prepared for inclusion, as well as how different stakeholders within the Giant Steps program perceive inclusion and their role in preparing students for inclusive classrooms.",

        "raw_content": "One of the less-mentioned and so-to-be-lost truths of the civil rights victories in MS is that other white individuals stepped forward to aid/support/champion the prosecutions of violent racists. Many white children (I was one of them) were sent to desegregated schools without hesitation. Many white people made other white people feel shame for speaking a racist joke.\nYes, yes, yes. Many whites took no action or turned a blind eye to terrible cruelty. For too long, there was no action.\nBut when you look at turning points in the civil rights era, you will see that white individuals stepped forward and told others \"enough\".\nWhat I find lacking in the UN, global community venues, and elsewhere is the line in the sand being drawn. This is wrong.\nJack D. Lail said...\nThe anonymity of the Internet leaves a lot to be desired in the civility department, but these comments, of course, go way beyond just the issues of politeness and respect.\nOne wonders if their real lives are as hate-filled or if the lack of personal accountability on the Internet is a drug that pushes them over the edge.\nWhy is a troll, a troll?\nThe freedom of the Internet is a wonderful thing ... and often isn't.\nWhat's touted as conversaton, engagement, dialogue and other social media buzzwords, all too often just isn't.\nI'm angered by this.\nIt's called the disinhibtion effect and you can read more about it here:\nhttp://drhelen.blogspot.com/2006/03/toxic-disinhibition-and-blog-comments.html\nThe slide show was set up so that we may \u201crespect these young woman's.\u201d Note that it utterly failed to accomplish its purpose; amid the debates about Israel and the hotness of the women, you will see no respect for their abilities as \"soldiers.\" It's not surprising; in 1948 the IDF learned the hard way that egalitarian and feminist ideology is the pitcher, and the battlefield is the rock against which it smashed. (They abandoned their \u201cprogressive\u201d attempt to take children from their parents and raise them in unisex hives at about the same time: That reality check bounced also.)\nWhen I read such pathetic, hate-filled comments, I wonder who these people are. I imagine some maybe people who think it's \"funny\" t leave mean, tasteless comments everywhere.\nThe \"global citizen\" probably imagines his/herself to be an enlightened person of the world. A liberal/leftist group that is becoming more and more anti-Semitic.\nIt is disgusting and unbelievable that while their are survivors of the Holocaust and their liberators still walking the Earth that so many are willing to allow it to be repeated. Being born in 1951, I grew up with friends whose fathers witnessed some of these atrocities.\nAs a final thought, maybe some American women would feel more liberated and equal if they had to serve in their country's defense at do the Israeli women.\nI find this incomprehensible.\nMy guess is that those commenters that are leaving the abrasive racist hate-filled posts about Israeli women are probably the same set of anonymous commenters who leave racist comments about blacks, women, latinos, gays and any other group that can be targeted. It's okay, the Internet is alive and well with the unilateral free-speech concept. Any place that allows unlimited free commenting will get these occasional posts. I have noticed that the hate-comments seem to have a propensity to appear during the night. I visualize some loser at 3AM deep in his mom's basement working out his anger issues on the keyboard.\nThe latest Forbes has a pretty good article about anonymous hate comments. http://slink.in/5226\nThank you Dr. H.\nActually the annonimity is a good thing IMO. I'd like to know what evil lurks in the heart of men.\nAs to the competence of the women, all you have to do is look at the pictures. You don't trust assault rifles to incompetents.\nI am eager to read the book, \"The Israel Lobby\", the Israeli government acts as though it has the US by the shorthairs, and that has always troubled me.\nThe Jew-hating punks who leave these sorts of remarks not only reveal the darkness of their souls, but also their timid and unmanly [the remarks sound male] selves. They seem to be very uncomfortable with the idea that women can be just as skilled and effective with firearms as men.\nA real man knows better. There are plenty of women whose skills and mindset make them formidable fighters, and Israel has them in spades.\nTo these cretins, the high-calibre Jewish woman would say, \"Are you feeling lucky today, punk?\"\n[Wonder if that sounds as cool in Hebrew as it does in English. Anybody know?]\nActually, I think I find it amusing as awful as that may sound. It's just so absurd. I remember a couple of times opening up random usnet articles and it turns out to be a ruse filled with \"I hate jews. I hate jews....\" Perhaps I've just been posting for too long -- you eventually see venemous \"hate speech\" like this directed at everyone. It just makes me laugh. I suppose as a sentiment, perhaps it is scary. But, as an idea, it is so non sequitur -- almost random.\nAlso, remember that this is just the bark, too. In terms of the actual sentiment, I think that is the real thing to be disturb by -- why would someone be so angry? If there's one thing I have come to believe over time it's that our modern norms that the angry person or the person \"losing control\" is always wrong is usually wrong. People don't just get angry for no reason. I doubt it has anything to do with jews, but there certainly is a source of this extreme hatered and anger. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't kind of like what the first commenter said. White males get ostracized by society and some minority of them just get carried away with men's rights and white power. In fact, the more extreme the better -- it is like a big catharsis for them. \"Ahhhhh.... Now I don't have to struggle so much and can just be the violent lunatic that everyone thinks I am.\"\ni am not surprised by the hate spewed by people anymore.\ni lost an entire (apart from 2 members) branch of my family is aushwitz and dachau. to hear such racist comments at first upset me, however the more i live the more i see hate is becoming main stream.\nand so i am not surprised anymore, which is the worst thing, the most insidious. while the comments are bad, i have seen and heard worse.\nand its everywhere. women vs men, men vs women, race against race, religion against religion. and its going to get worse. hatred feeds on hatred and will grow. But i am not surprised anymore at the shallow minded, bigoted people on the web and on the planet.\nHow I wish I could disagree with you, mercurior. But I can't.\nI'm trying my best not to become one of them.\nI am not against race, color, creed, mind you. Individual people. Some of them do band together and form groups. There was a time I thought I do not, could not, hate anyone. I can't honestly say that anymore.\n\"racist comments about blacks, latinos \"\nIt really isn't the same thing. If someone expresses dislike for Latinos, they aren't necessarily calling for the destruction of a whole country. Nobody who makes those comments wants to blow up Mexico---in most cases.\nThat's what makes anti-Semitism particularly troublesome.\nMost people aren't going to take the trouble to separate \"Jews\", the people, from \"Israel\" a country.\nThat's why every time the Left puts forth their anti-Israel agenda....they encourage hate piece against a whole race of people.\nI love how the mental health community things that racism and anti-Semitism are nothing more than \"illnesses\" (DSM-IV ?) to be \"cured\".\nI'm pretty sure they are coming out with some sort of psychotropic drug that can instantly make you like Blacks, and stop hating Jews.\nI don't find this stuff laughable a bit. I take it seriously. The social order is more tenuous than most people think it is. It can break down in a matter of hours. Hurricanes show that to be true.\nIn a ten-day period in July of 1941 one half of the Polish village of Jedwabne murdered the other half, 1,600 Jews they had been living with peacefully for decades. They did it for only one reason. Or perhaps no reason. They did it simply because they could. The Nazis were in control and they made it clear that murder of Jews was permissible. Murder followed.\nIt can happen anywhere under the right circumstances. And all who find in this something to laugh at might remember one thing. The murderers may come for the Jews, but they don't stop with the Jews.\nThe story of Jedwabne is recounted in the book Neighbors by Jan Gross.\nWhat is YouTube's responsibility? I would think there is some ... What?\nThe comments are beneath notice, they are disgusting.\nYoutube doesn't have any responsibility, see terms and conditions for youtube account holders. I have a youtube account and those that post videos are free to turn on the comments moderation function. This particular videographer has opted not to do so.\nTraditional anti-Semitism had been in decline in the U.S. for many years. To the extent that there has been a revival of this vile attitude, it is largely the doing of America's universities. It is from these institutions that the demonization of Israel has emanated, along with the excuse-making for, and the romanticization of, Palestinian terrorism.\nWhen you read about somebody wanting to \"boycott\" Israel, it is never the Kiwanis Club or the Livestock & Feed Society. It is either an academic group, or a liberal church which is under the influence of academia.\nThis doesn't shock me anymore, because it seems so commonplace. I don't know if serious hatred of Jews is a 20th century invention or not, but it makes me think there must be something remarkable about the Jewish people.\nAnti-Israel rhetoric? Americans can turn the page [article from Atlanta Journal-Constitution]\nCham, given all the hatred of Israel in this country and others, it seems more plausible that there is a strong Arabic Lobby. It seems to me like both Republicans and Democrats are constantly trying to convince Israel to give up more land.\nJW, I remember some controversy several months ago on the conservative blogs because YouTube marked Malkin's conservative group as \"adult\" so you had to have permission to view it. I thought Google bought it and assumed it would improve.\nI suspect that a lot of these comments come from outside of the USA. Perhaps many of them are by Muslims. For example, use of the term \"Liban\" for Lebanon suggests that the commenter is a native French speaker. I am guessing he is a Muslim. Someone here mentioned that many of these comments arrive at night -- another cue that they may come from abroad.\nIn the context of blogs or videos about Israel, I interpret anti-Jewish/Israel comments as info-war attacks. We should respond to them as such, both to provide alternative arguments for ignorant readers and to show that the anti-Semites aren't as numerous as their feverish (or perhaps calculated) high rate of posting suggests.\nAn interesting case in point, here.\nWell, as one who travels back and forth between two cultures regularly, I can understand the beauty and devotion of these women, and also understand the sentiments of the people posting against them, whom I assume are mostly living outside the U.S. At least I hope so.\nIf you never leave the U.S., you really can't imagine the hatred that people feel against not only us, but against anyone who has different beliefs than their own, even against members of their own societies whose beliefs they see as threatening to their own well-being. The sentiment of the anti-Semitic comments is really no different than the sentiment expressed by most people in third world countries against people of their own societies whom they feel are inferior. They see anyone not exactly like them as threats to the status-quo, and in fact they are threats to the status-quo. My personal experience leads me to believe that the basis of this fear is the misguided belief that economics is a zero-sum game. There is only so much to go around; if you and I are in business together, I either screw you or you screw me. There is no way that the two of us working together can create wealth in excess of the sum of our individual assets.\nI have come to believe that, although we must continue to fight it, such hatred has been with us for thousands of years and will continue to exist long after we are dead. All we can hope for is, for as long as each of us lives, is to do our best to convince people, one by one, that the only chance for long-term survival of the human race is to accept the fact that we are all different and must accept each other as we are, and that each of us has something to contribute. This dream is complicated by the fact that many would rather see us all die (including themselves) than allow those whom they hate to continue living.\nOur adversaries are willing to fight to the death over petty differences, so to defeat them will require a long term (hundreds of years) demonstration of overwhelming strength by the U.S., Israel, and other forces of democracy. We have the capacity to do this, because as we have proven time and time again, democracy creates the economic strength necessary to carry on the fight, and no other system does.\nThe hateful comments about the slide show really arise out of the fear that if the young women of Israel are willing to fight personally, then Israel itself is unbeatable. This strikes terror into the hearts of those who wish to annihilate it.\nRightGirl said...\nThat's the same sort of illiterate hate mail I get when I write about Islamic terror. The hate mail comes from Muslims, mostly young males, who are very undereducated but very arrogant.\nI wish I could say these anti-Semitic rants shocked me, but they do not. They do however steel my resolve to fight back, at every opportunity.\nIt's been said well...\"Walk softly and carry a big stick.\"\nIt will all come to a head, eventually. It has to. People will literally have to pick a side, and take a stand. No way around it. The face of war has changed. But that face will show up everywhere, and this new war will be fought everywhere at once. Every man, woman, and child will be drawn in. Hell, it already is, just at varying levels, that are all escalating. No flags, no distinct uniforms, no clear lines. Something different is in the air this time, Jeeves. Perhaps a civil war of sorts, on a world wide battleground.\nMercurior hit on it the other day in a post. Everyone seems to \"hate\" anyone who does not think and believe as they. The all forgiving, peace on everyone, live and let live liberal types are prime examples of it. Pathological cow manure.\nI believe it is Biblical. I believe it is coming.\nPutting green lights on the Empire State Building isn't going to do anything but get America laughed at. I'm embarrassed by that, personally. People demand a separation of church and state, unless it's Muslim. Why? They're scared. No matter what they say, they're scared. Bush is right, damn it. And it won't be any easier tomorrow.\nSit down and think about it. Would green lights on the Empire State Building even have been considered before September 11, 2001? Up with Muslims, down with Christianity - in a nation of Christian heritage. Up with green lights celebrating the end of Ramadan, down with Santa Claus and the manger scene. WTF?\nWhatever happens, this country will have to win that conflict. We will not win it divided. Our nation, our world as we know it, will not survive as we know it, if we don't win it.\nI once wondered if I was way off base to think like this. I am now convinced people are too scared to see it perhaps, to talk about it. Rightly so, it scares the crap out of everyone. Except those who can't wait to blow themselves up for their cause, if they can take others with them.\nMaybe it's talk softly. But I'm into the big stick part, 100%\nTsavo said...\nI'd wager that most of these misogynist twerps haven't seen a naked women without a staple in her abdomen.\n21 years of age should be the legal minimum age to post on a website. :P\nbtw, women in uniform = rawr.\nBugsybee said...\nOne of the reasons why I forego reading comments in public sites like youtube, etc is because there are usually racist comments so full of hatred. I can't understand how people can spew out so much venom.\nThe kind of anti-Jewish/anti-Israli venom spewed by these comentors is misogynistic only because there were women in the video. Had the subject of the video been young male soldiers talking about their service, then the vitriol would have been just as hateful, but without the sexist slant.\nThis type of hatred is frightening for it's intent to wipe out an entire culture. It has been tried before, and the world's guilt for it's inaction during WWII helped to create the Nation-State of Israel.\nNow, because of a propaganda war,promulgated and fueled by the Arab nations, who created the Palestinian refugee problem with their own hatred and intolerance, not just of Jews, but of their own Muslim \"brothers\", their exists a multi-generational class of disaffected men and women constantly looking for reasons to hate. They hate Jews, Westerners, and Muslims who do not worship as devoutly as they \"should\". They seek to create a world-wide Caliph. They want all infidels to convert or die. This is what I hear, and fear when I read these hate filled comments. Sharia Law, coming soon to a neighborhood near you!",

        "raw_content": "Have you ever heard of soft and hard water? A lot of people probably do not know about these things but knowing the difference between the two is very important and will make a person more knowledgeable about the safety of his or her drinking water. A person cannot survive without water, which makes it a daily necessity, however, if you are drinking the wrong type of water every day, you might be putting your health at risk.\nUnderstanding Hard Water\nHard water is water that comes from your tap or the town\u2019s water supply.\nIt is called hard because it contains certain amounts of calcium and magnesium.\nHard water clogs pipes.\nSoaps and detergents cannot easily dissolve in hard water.\nHard water also causes lime scale deposits in the home\u2019s water system, which can lead to the inefficiency of hot boilers. Because of this, there is a 15% to 20% increase in energy consumption when heating water.\nLime deposits are also said to damage household appliances like washing machines.\nThe Importance of a Water Softener\nThe water softening technique entails the removal of calcium and magnesium ions in the water. Iron ions present in hard water can be removed before the softening process through another method. The best way to soften water is to use a drinking water softener, which you can connect to your home\u2019s water supply. The use of a water softener can remove the negative effects that calcium and magnesium ions can cause.\nSoftening Drinking Water\nWater suppliers soften drinking water before they sell it to customers but they do not always do this. They simply add a water softener in their drinking water system. Furthermore, they do not make enough effort to soften water because it doesn\u2019t pose any problem to them. Hard water is likely to cause problems when it is heated but since only cold water runs through the company\u2019s pipes, they do not prioritize making soft water.\nNonetheless, consumers prefer drinking softened water because it is safer for the body. The natural minerals are not removed so they can still benefit from them. You should invest in a drinking water softener to ensure that you are only drinking the best and safest water out there.\nSodium can also be added to the softened water but it should be limited to 300 mg/L. The salt in your soft drinking water is perfectly safe as long as it is of the right amount. The body can take 2 to 3 teaspoons of salt a day and the salt from your soft water will be very minimal. Why is there sodium in soft water in the first place? It is because salt regenerates resin beads in the water that takes out its hardness.\nYour drinking water softener will produce soft water free of iron, calcium, and magnesium. With a drinking water softener, you can enjoy safe and clean water that comes with natural minerals that your body needs.",

        "raw_content": "Porsche 911 GT2 RS; The Fastest Road Going 911 Ever\nThe Porsche 911 GT2 was once called the widow maker. They were blindingly quick cars that demanded the full attention of their drivers and punished and the smallest lapses in judgement. Then, with the previous generation GT2 something changed. Yes, it was still a meaner and harder iteration of the Turbo that eschewed power to the front wheels and added larger turbos, but it didn't quite have the knife-to-your-throat dynamics of previous GT2s. Now Porsche has unveiled the 911 GT2 RS. Could this be the return of the widow maker?\nSeven minutes eighteen seconds. That's how fast Porsche is claiming the 911 GT2 RS can lap the Nurburgring. That's faster than a Carrera GT. It accomplishes this feat through some rather extreme measures. Like the GT2, the GT2 RS is based on the 911 turbo and is rear-wheel-drive only. Of the the line, the all-wheel-drive Turbo would have the edge in a drag race, but because the GT2 RS' 3.6 liter twin-turbo flat produces 620 hp (!), the advantage would be short lived. The GT2 RS also weighs a very useful 154 pounds less. Zero to sixty comes in 3.4 seconds and top speed is 205 mph.\nThe car will have its public unveiling at the Moscow Motor Show. Predictably it won't be cheap. It'll cost around around $245,000 and only 500 units will be made.\nLexus Drops LFA Special Edition",

Help!\u201d This is typically a frantic call, as many customers install their system, plug everything in, and may have missed something critical that will help them when they need it. We\u2019ve had situations ranging from where a customer had unknowingly set their digital video recorder to only record video for the last 10 days, replacing everything prior to a customer who plugged everything in and they could see an image, but didn\u2019t their security system to record anything. We also receive calls from customers who have inherited a system that came with the business they purchased, and they don\u2019t have a clue on how to work with the equipment.\nTo maintain your recording device, first look at the physical environment in Eau Claire, WI. The recorder should be stored in a climate controlled area with sufficient airflow to ensure hot air does not become stagnant. Using a duster, can of compressed air, or a vacuum, clear any dust from around the recorder or its vents. It is not necessary, or recommended, to open the unit.\nOnce you have seen that the live images of each cameras is good on the recorder, go to each camera and check the physical condition of each security camera in Eau Claire, WI. Clean the lens and camera housing with a dry towel and make sure there is no condensation or moisture build-up in or around the camera and lens. Clear any insect, animal, or bird nests from the immediate vicinity as these can often lead to obstructed views. Make certain that the video security camera is securely fastened to the wall or camera wall mount and that all screws are tightly fastened. If any cameras show signs of corrosion or rusting, contact your sales person. This is a good indication that your video surveillance camera may not continue to function in the future. You may want to double-check the view from your recorder or a hand-held viewing monitor in case you nudged the placement of the camera in this process.\nCheck your power supplies and ensure they are also in a climate controlled and well-ventilated area in Eau Claire, WI. If you have a UPS installed, check to make sure that the battery is fully charged and it does not show any warning lights. A voltmeter can be used to make sure all cameras are getting their full power requirements and there are no under-voltage or over-voltage issues. Providing a camera either too much or too little power will cause it to fail more rapidly. It is always cheaper to replace a failing power supply than a surveillance camera.\nAnd that\u2019s it! For most customers, checking the entire system according to these steps will take less than an hour and does not require that you have special tools or knowledge. The technical support team can help explain these maintenance steps in more detail and help resolve any issues discovered along the way. Remember, the time to find an issue with your security system in Eau Claire, WI is not after a break-in, but before!",

        "raw_content": "You are here: Home / eDiscovery / Mobile Device and Social Media Raise Your Hand\nAs I travel and speak at various venues on social media applications and mobile devices I always open up with a question to the audience. Typically the audience is of the type that uses Electronically Stored Information (ESI) to help solve a crime, litigate a case or remedy a corporation \u201csituation\u201d. I first start out by asking the audience if they utilize the data from social media during ESI discovery. As the hands rise I see the same percentage of 20% holds true across the board no matter the venue. So let us look at the percentage of those using social media evidence in ESI collections to the percentage of actual users of social media on their mobile devices. I will look at statistics to come up with a conclusion stemming from a personal two prong question to the audience of \u201cDo you own mobile device and if so do you use any type of social media?\u201d I will put the polling numbers from my typical talk against those found globally in several categories to test my theory and hopefully gain a better picture of our current dilemma.\nNumber of Mobile Devices\nHow many people in the audience have one mobile device? 98%\nHow many people in the audience have at least two mobile devices; either a tablet or cellular phone? 30%\nIn 2013 Nielson conducted research on the mobile consumer showing that 61%users own a smartphone and 27% of the world own at least two mobile devices.\nFigure 1 Nielson Global Smartphone Insights\nFurthermore there are an estimated 6.8 billion mobile subscriptions worldwide estimatesThe International Telecommunication Union (February 2013). That equates to 96% of the world population.\nUsers of Social Media via Mobile Device\nHow many in the audience use social media on their smart device? 70%\nGlobally as indicated in both the Nielson 2013 report and marketingcharts.com over 55% of social networking consumption occurs on a mobile device. Percentage average for social networking globally is 67.5% as mentioned in the marketingcharts.com article.\nFigure 2 Nielson report showing percentages of users and social media and application usage with smart devices. Nielson 2013\nUsage of Social Media ESI from Mobile Devices\nHow many in the audience have used social media ESI from a mobile device as evidence?20%\nToday, more than 95% of all information is electronic and further research indicates that almost all cases today will involve some sort or electronic evidence.\nWhat is extremely interesting as noted by x1discovery.com in an October 4, 2013 blog is that the pace of cases involving social media has so rapidly accelerated it has been very difficult to keep up. They identified 88 cases in just September 2013 where social media was key to the case and were published on Westlaw.\n\u2026only one percent of total cases result in published opinions\u2026one can safely assume there were tens of thousands of more legal matters involving social media.\nFurther examination of the cases listed from 2010 and 2011 only two percent mention a mobile device and social media. 320 published cases so far for the first half of 2012 and only one percent mention mobile devices and social media. This is quite staggering and disappointing considering the numbers outlined below.\nPutting This Together\nLooking at the numbers we see that my polling numbers are very consistent with numbers gathered by marketing agencies.\n98% of my attendees have a mobile device while 96% of people in the world have a mobile device.\n70% of my attendees use social media on their mobile devices as compared to the 67.5%globally.\nWhilst 95% of all ESI is electronic and 55% of the social media consumption occurs on a mobile device one would say this evidence is widely utilized. This is definitely not the case when looking at the mere 2% of published cases and a 20% usage by my attendees using mobile device social media evidence.\nWhat This Comes Down To\nI always follow up asking the attendees why there is such a low number of examiners, corporations, service providers and legal teams utilizing data from a mobile device. The differences in answers are quite enlightening which typically center on awareness. Some of the examples and my opinions are listed next.\nThis ESI can be found somewhere else\nThis is very common, but honestly Facebook data (or any data) on a mobile device is much different than on Facebook\u2019s server or living on the custodian\u2019s PC. Local images, cache and deleted posts along with associated applications are a few differences.\nComplexity, software, knowledge are but a few that can be lumped into logistics. There are very competent service providers that can help train, conduct collections and evidence analysis as well as testify to the procedures that need to be followed in a court of law.\nThose conducting any type of investigations from legal and corporate review, HR, criminal and civil cases must understand information contained on a mobile device is much more relevant and often critical to the painted picture, especially when it comes to social media. This information can be obtained quickly and efficiently from these mobile devices, extracting critical data and analyzing the information to be used immediately or stored for retention. AccessData\u2019s Mobile Phone Examiner Plus is one such tool.\nThe only question you need to ask yourself when determining if social media from a mobile device is critical to your case.\nWhat did you do on your mobile device today?\nLee Reiber\nLee Reiber is the Vice President of Mobile Forensic Solutions in charge of overseeing all mobile forensic activities for the AccessData mobile forensic line. Shortly after joining the company in 2009, Lee refocused AccessData\u2019s mobile forensics software and re-engineered the mobile phone tool Mobile Phone Examiner (MPE) to what is now Mobile Phone Examiner Plus (MPE+).

        "raw_content": "U.S. warns Taiwan, China\nThe Chinese premier got a warm welcome at Andrews Air Force Base.\n\u0095 Wen bids to avoid trade war\n\u0095 Hu warns Taiwan residents\n\u0095 China visit tests U.S. ambiguity\n\u0095 Clear message for Bush\n\u0095 Taiwan plans 'missile' vote\n\u0095 China military pressures Taiwan\nWASHINGTON -- The United States has warned both Taiwan and China not to make provocative moves towards each other as tensions mount across the Taiwan Strait.\nOn the eve of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao's meeting with President George W. Bush in Washington, U.S. officials slammed Taiwan's moves towards independence from China.\n\"We don't want to see Taiwan moving toward independence. We don't want to see any unilateral moves in that direction,\" a senior U.S. official told reporters on Monday.\nAt the same time, Washington has made it clear to Beijing its criticism of Taiwan should not be seen as a green light to use launch military action against the island.\nMounting tensions between the two has put Washington in a quandary, as it finds itself caught between murmurs of independence for Taiwan, and Beijing's \"One-China\" policy.\nChina and the self-ruled island split amid civil war in 1949, but Beijing regards Taiwan as a renegade province, which must be reunified, by force if necessary.\nBeijing has expressed mounting anger in recent weeks at what it says is a push towards independence by Chen Shui-bian, Taiwan's popularly elected president, who has made the issue his central campaign theme.\nLast month Taipei passed a referendum law that could raise the issue of Taiwan's independence, and the government wants the law strengthened, to give it power to call a plebiscite during peacetime.\nChen has already said he will hold a referendum in March demanding China remove hundreds of missiles aimed at the island.\nFurther complicating relations, the United States is Taiwan's main weapons supplier and has pledged to defend the island if it is attacked by China.\nWen met with U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, left, in New York on Sunday.\nAs tensions show little sign of easing, Wen is expected to talk tough on Taiwan in his Tuesday meeting with Bush, seeking assurances that Washington opposes the island's independence.\nA source in China has said the usually low-key, soft-spoken Wen will let it be known that possible U.S. military action to help defend Taiwan will not deter Beijing from taking steps to thwart the island's independence moves. (Clear message for Bush)\nAfter his arrival in New York on Sunday, Wen said that \"separatist forces\" in Taiwan were trying to \"use democracy only as a cover to split Taiwan away from China.\"\nWen, who is perhaps the closest political ally of President Hu Jintao, is widely expected to urge the White House to come up with a clear-cut statement opposing Taiwan independence.\nWen is also likely to be looking for a pledge to scale down the sophistication of American arms being shipped to Taiwan.\nFor its part, the United States seems to be becoming far more explicit on Taiwan than it has been in the past, dropping a longtime policy of deliberate ambiguity in its \"one China\" policy.\nA senior administration official, briefing reporters on the condition of anonymity, said that Taiwan in recent days \"seems to be pushing the envelope pretty vigorously\" in issues related to island's future status.\nApart from Taiwan, a growing number of trade disputes between the two countries will also feature high on Wen's agenda.\nWen and trade officials accompanying him are said to be eager to work out a more long-term framework with Washington on settling trade disputes.\nWashington accuses China of keeping its currency artificially weak, taking jobs away from American workers, and wants the market to set the yuan's value.\nThe United States is also pressuring China to free up its markets in accordance with the rules of the World Trade Organization.\nFor his part, Wen may persuade the United States not to set any more restrictions on Chinese imports.\nLast month, Washington imposed quotas on Chinese textiles and set tariffs on televisions.\nWen may also argue that China is already boosting trade with America by signing deals with U.S. firms such as Boeing and Citibank.\nWen will also visit Boston, then stop in Canada and Mexico before heading home.\n-- Willy Wo-Lap Lam, CNN Senior China Analyst, contributed to this report",

        "title": "Did Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John Actually Author the Gospel Accounts? \u2013 Ehrman Project",
        "raw_content": "Another feature in gospel studies that is often raised is the idea that the authors who are associated with the gospels did not really write the gospels that they are associated with. The claim is Matthew did not write Matthew; John did not write John; Mark did not write Mark; and Luke did not write Luke. The claim is made \u2013 and this is correct \u2013 that no gospel names its author. This is true. If you read through any of the four gospels, at no point do we get something similar to the Pauline letters\u2019 \u201cPaul, a slave of Jesus Christ, writing to\u2026\u201d We do not have anything like that in the gospels. So we have to reconstruct who the author is.\nWe look at how far back this gospel tradition goes. We know that the claims associated with it reach at least to the latter part of the 2nd century because Irenaeus mentions the four gospels and gives their names as Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. But is he right? We actually know from the reports we get from Eusebius about Patheos that these associations go back to somewhere between the latter part of the 1st century and the beginning part of the 2nd century \u2013 within a couple of decades of when these gospels were actually written. Patheos reports on Mark being associated as the interpreter of Peter; Matthew being a writer of a gospel in the Hebrew dialect in a Hebrew context; Luke being the writer of his gospel; and John being associated with the fourth gospel. So these take us pretty far back.\nHow about we consider the alternative model? The alternative model suggests that the names we attach to these gospels are attached to them in order to raise the status of the gospel in question. In other words, rather than have it be anonymous, attach the authorship to the name of a luminary \u2013 someone who will bring credibility to this work \u2013 and thereby undergird and support the testimony in what is really an anonymous gospel. Does this model work? Consider the two gospels associated with figures not recognized to be apostles \u2013 Mark and Luke.\nMark. Think about Mark\u2019s r\u00e9sum\u00e9. His \u2018curriculum vitae,\u2019 if you will. His CV is that he did not make it through the first missionary journey. He went home to his mom because the pressure got to be too much for him. Second part of his CV is that he caused a split between Paul and Barnabas before they went out in ministry. So does this sound like a figure you are going to commend as the author to undergird the support of a gospel? Remember, if it the author is unknown, then the name is \u2018X,\u2019 so you can put anyone in there that you want. Yet Mark goes in there. Mark does not commend himself as a luminary who can lift up the credibility of a gospel. Some people suggest that it was not just Mark; but since he was connected to Peter, it is really Peter who is behind this gospel. That would be interesting. If you could put in any name for \u2018X,\u2019 including an apostle (like the claim for Matthew and John), then why not put Peter in there? That would solve your credibility problem instantly. The gospel tradition does not do that. It makes it very clear that Mark is responsible for the gospel, but he interacted with Peter in producing it. It seems to me that this gives evidence that the gospel tradition is trying to be very careful about how it states its origins, and does not \u2018jump the gun\u2019 in terms of credibility.\nLuke is often associated with the third gospel and presented as Paul\u2019s representative. So the third gospel is usually associated with Paul in one way or another. Again, think through the candidates of who could go in the \u2018X\u2019 slot for the author or than Luke. Who else worked with Paul that could give that gospel potential credibility? Barnabas, Timothy, Titus, Silas, Apollos, etc. There are numerous people who have a stronger background to lift up the credibility than Luke. He was basically was an unknown disciple \u2013 who may have been a doctor in the background \u2013 about whom we know very little else. So does the alternative theory that suggests a lifting up of the luminary in the \u2018X\u2019 slot actually work? When we take a close look at it, the answer is no; that theory really does not work.\nThe question is then raised, \u201cWhy are these somewhat obscure figures, some with questionable histories, being associated as the authors of these works?\u201d It is more likely that it is because the tradition knew something about the authorship of these books, and that is what was passed on.",

        "raw_content": "A Wedding Celebration (Version 2.0)\nFirst of all, apologies for the lack of posting yesterday. Work has been extra-busy of late (we\u2019re launching our furniture showroom in just one month, somebody pinch me), and with my Apartment Therapy work, private clients, drawing course and some semblance of a social life, extra time has been thin on the ground. In fact, I might have to trim back my blogging to three or four days a week in November due to the sheer busy-ness of my life.\nAnyway, enough of that. Who wants to look at pretty pictures of a wedding lunch in a Hogwarts-like setting? Yes? Good. This past weekend, my sister and her husband threw a celebratory lunch in the English boarding school town where they live, for all the UK-based guests who weren\u2019t able to make it to Canada for their wedding in August. The venue was the school art gallery, which ended up being a fantastic place for a party.\nUnlike the first actual wedding, my sister and I didn\u2019t do too much DIY for this event. Other than spray-painting the vases and arranging the pink flowers ourselves, we let the school events team handle the festivities. This meant that everyone was actually able to relax and enjoy the afternoon, an entirely new concept to me and my sister! I did act as unofficial photographer for this event, though, so I thought I\u2019d share some of my snaps with you here.\n{Note: In case anyone is wondering why I haven\u2019t shared photos of the actual wedding yet, they\u2019re still coming. The photographs are going to be featured on a wedding blog sometime in the next month, and I don\u2019t want to let the cat out of the bag before then. Don\u2019t worry, you\u2019ll be the first to know when it\u2019s up!}\nPosted in My Life | Tagged Event, lunch, UK, Wedding | 2 comments\n\u2018Grams of my Life (No. 08)\nAll photos via my Instagram. Follow me @elebusing.\nI\u2019ve had a pretty busy couple of days\u2013 in fact, I\u2019d say it\u2019s been downright manic. Since arriving into Canada on Wednesday, it\u2019s been one endless stream of DIY, vendor meetings, family parties and general wedding-related happenings. All done on a jet-lag schedule of four hours of sleep a night, of course. Here\u2019s a little look at what I\u2019ve been up to lately\u2026\n1,2 A few scenes of my parents\u2019 house in Ottawa. I love going home in the summer- the weather is beautiful and the neighbourhood so peaceful after the hustle and bustle of London.\n3,4 My aunt hosted a lunch at her Gatineau cottage on Friday afternoon. The home itself is beautiful (I\u2019ll be sharing photos next month) and I always love a trip into Quebec cottage country.\n5 Just a shot of my sister\u2019s bachelorette/shower on Thursday evening, which was hosted by a friend of hers. The gang was a mix of family and my sister\u2019s old childhood and high school friends- girls I\u2019ve known for most of my life. Super fun.\n6 Getting my bridesmaid outfit ready. The clutch is a loaner from a friend in NYC, who is a handbag designer. Designer samples so hot they haven\u2019t even hit the shops yet? I\u2019m a pretty lucky girl, I know.\n7 The Big Day. Dress on, makeup done and professional photos taken, my big sis waits patiently for our ride to the church.\n8 And what a ride it was! My Mum arranged to have a neighbour drive us in his vintage car. He told us that it\u2019s something he really enjoys and my sister was the fourth or fifth bride he\u2019s driven to her wedding! He even had a chauffeur hat\u2013 it was pretty much the coolest thing ever.\n9,10 I didn\u2019t take a lot of photos at the event itself (I left that to the incredibly talented Anne-Marie Bouchard, my sister\u2019s photographer) but here\u2019s a sneak peek at the tent, set out for dinner, and of the result- one very happy couple. You better believe that this space is going to be crawling with wedding imagery once we get the professional photos back.\nI\u2019ll be taking a blog holiday for the rest of this week; meeting various friends for various meals, enjoying some cottage relaxation with my hometown girls, and spending some quality (read: non wedding-related) time with my family. On Thursday I\u2019m off to New York City to spend three days in controlled hedonism, which I couldn\u2019t be more excited about. I\u2019ll be back next Monday with another \u2018Grams of my Life, and regular posting will resume in September.\nUntil then, have a great final week of August, and let me know what you\u2019ve been up to lately!\nPosted in My Life | Tagged 'Grams of my Life, home, travel, Wedding | 2 comments",

After being introduced to Missy Elliott, Wray was featured on Missy\u2019s platinum certified debut Supa Dupa Fly. When Elliott started her own label, The Goldmind, the then 17-year-old Wray was the first artist signed. She impressed Elliot with her singing skills.\nIn 1998, her debut album Make It Hot was released. Heavily criticized for Elliott\u2019s heavy-handed involvement (she produced, wrote, and performed on much of the album) the first single, \u201cMake It Hot\u201d, peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was certified gold. Her second single, \u201cI Can\u2019t See\u201d, reached number 36 on the Rhythmic Top 40 chart. Her debut album Make It Hot peaked at number nineteen on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart (number 42 on The Billboard 200) and dropped off by the end of the year. The third single, \u201cEyes Better Not Wander\u201d, peaked at number 71 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Later that year, Wray would sing the hook to \u201cAll n My Grill\u201d on Missy Elliott\u2019s platinum certified second album, Da Real World.\nIn July 2001, Nicole released \u201cI\u2019m Lookin'\u201d, the first single from her planned second album Elektric Blue. \u201cI\u2019m Lookin'\u201d peaked at number 66 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, but the album would eventually be shelved.\nAfter amicably parting with The Goldmind, Wray was sought after to feature vocals on various albums and soundtracks. She would go on to sign a new album deal and under the guidance of Damon Dash was featured on Cam'ron\u2019s gold certified 2004 release, Purple Haze.\nLater that year she released the single, \u201cIf I Was Your Girlfriend\u201d from her scheduled Roc-A-Fella Records debut and sophomore studio set LoveChild. Though garnering some buzz, there ultimately was not enough push to release the album. After the temporary halt of Roc-A-Fella, LoveChild would suffer the same fate as its predecessor.\nWray moved through the Dame Dash Music Group, and also Channel 7 Records, garnering several guest vocal appearances.\nStill maintaining her work relationship with Damon Dash, Wray joined The Black Keys rock/hip-hop collective Blakroc, and was a major vocal contributor to the group\u2019s self-titled November 2009 debut. Wray was then enlisted to add her background vocals on The Black Keys' seventh studio LP, Brothers, which was released in May 2010.\nIn 2010, she appeared on Kid Cudi\u2019s second album Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager on the song \u201cThe End\u201d, alongside Chip tha Ripper and GLC.\nIn 2012, Nicole teamed up with fellow soulstress Terri Walker to form retro-soul duo Lady. They were signed to Truth and Soul Records and their self-titled debut album was released on March 5, 2013.\nIn 2016, she announced a new single \u201cDo It Again\u201d and a new album \u201cQueen Alone\u201d set for a September 23, 2016 release date, under her new stage name Lady Wray.\nPopular Nicole Wray songs\nAll N My Grill (Remix)\nI Wanna Be Your Lady\nStill Tippin' (It's a Man's World Remix 2)\nShow all songs by Nicole Wray\nPopular Nicole Wray albums\nElektric Blue",

        "raw_content": "The (Commodities) End is Nigh...or Not\nMay 5, 2016\u2022 Commodities\u2022 by Dan Steinbock\nWhile cyclical challenges remain tough in global commodities, structural realities look more tolerable. According to conventional wisdom, the challenges of global commodities can be attributed to China\u2019s slowdown and poor growth prospects. Advanced economies are not immune. In the US, just two commodity-related sectors \u2013 oil and gas, as well as metals and steel \u2013 accounted for more than half of the defaults in 2015.\nYet, the rebound of most commodity price indexes in the first quarter suggests different realities. From iron ore to aluminum, most commodities have rallied. Silver is surging. In addition, in China policy authorities have begun to clamp down the frenzy in the commodities markets.\nConventional wisdom is off, once again. But why?\nThe fall of the commodities super-cycle\nIn cyclical terms, the rebound of commodity prices reflects a weakening dollar and stronger market sentiment. Energy prices were still down 21% but non-energy prices only by 2%. Crude oil forecast for 2016 has climbed to more than $40 per barrel.\nThe decline of metal prices is still anticipated to decrease 8% further. Agricultural prices are projected to fare only mildly better. By 2017, most commodities are expected to enjoy a modest price recovery.\nThe simple reality is that in the course of the \u201ccommodities super-cycle\u201d resource-rich and commodity-exporting economies saw surging production, investment and exploration activities, which amplified their growth prospects.\nThat\u2019s when Brazil enjoyed a dramatic expansion, which benefited directly lower social classes as ensured by President Lula\u2019s social policies, whereas in most commodity-exporting nations \u2013 from the Middle East to Africa, Asia and Latin America \u2013 the benefits filtered down only indirectly.\nAs these patterns have now been reversed, these economies are coping with reverse scenarios in the Middle East, particularly in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf economies, and much of Africa. Now all seek to accelerate diversification to avoid reliance on oil, while coping with destabilization, friction, even wars.\nIn still other nations \u2013 for instance, Russia and Iran \u2013 better economic performance would have been viable even in the \u2018new normal,\u2019 but thanks to sanctions by the US and EU their growth prospects have been restricted externally.\nWhen \u2018fall\u2019 does not mean \u2018end\u2019\nToday, conventional wisdom projects the full end of the super-cycle. In this view, the rebound in commodity prices can only be attributed to speculation. The idea is not entirely without basis. That\u2019s why China has moved to curb the excessive trading.\nHowever, if China has been the prime cause of the demise of the super-cycle, that should be reflected in the eclipse of Latin American prospects, which rely significantly on resources and commodity exports. Yet, realities are more subtle.\nArgentina and particularly Brazil have been hardly hit, as evidenced by the political turmoil in the former and the efforts at a \u2018soft coup\u2019 in the latter. Yet, Chile and Peru have fared better. Even though the two have greater exposure to China\u2019s deceleration, they rely on longer-sighted economic policies and greater risk aversion.\nCertainly, much of the super-cycle can be explained by the rise and fall of China\u2019s most energy-intensive phase of industrialization. The cycle began when the Beijing joined the World Trade Organization (2001), and it has slowed only after the effect of China\u2019s huge 2009 stimulus package has diminished.\nNevertheless, China\u2019s economic rebalancing efforts are intensifying takeoffs of lower-tiered cities in the inland and the west. In turn, Beijing\u2019s new plans \u2013 e.g., the One Belt One Road initiative, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the BRICS New Development Bank \u2013 are likely to spread economic development from China and emerging Asia to the Middle East, Africa and the Americas. In addition, many emerging and developing economies have only begun modernization.\nAll these massive activities mean continued urbanization, infrastructure investments, and thus the need for oil and gas, metals and minerals, raw materials and food for prospering nations, while investors seek to diversify risk via precious metals as well.\nThe world of commodities is not ending. It\u2019s stabilizing and differentiating.\nInvesting After the Global Commodities Super-Cycle is republished with permission from The Difference Group\nSee Also: Catching Up with Currencies and Commodities",

What people didn't realise is that I chose not to drive, even though I had a contract in place. I gave the team a change to survive by getting in a pay-driver.\"\nLast month Timo Glock left Marussia by mutual consent despite having a contract through until the end of 2014, with team principal John Booth admitting that the move was driven by \"tough economic conditions\".

His father, a keen Tory, was a baron of the Scottish court of exchequer, and his mother was connected by marriage with Lord Melville. He was educated at the high school and the university of Edinburgh; and he was a member of the famous Speculative Society, to which Sir Walter Scott, Brougham and Jeffrey belonged. He entered the faculty of advocates in 1800, and attached himself, not to the party of his relatives, who could have afforded him most valuable patron-age, but to the Whig or Liberal party, and that at a time when it held out few inducements to men ambitious of success in life. On the accession of Earl Grey's ministry in 183o he became solicitor-general for Scotland. In 1834 he was raised to the bench, and on taking his seat as a judge in the court of session he adopted the title of Lord Cockburn. Cockburn's forensic style was remarkable for its clearness, pathos and simplicity; and his conversational powers were unrivalled among his contemporaries. The extent of his literary ability only became known after he had passed his seventieth year, on the publication of his biography of Lord Jeffrey in 1852, and from the Memorials of his Time, which appeared posthumously in 1856. He died on the 26th of April 1854, at his mansion of Bonaly, near Edinburgh.\nEnd of Article: HENRY THOMAS COCKBURN (1779\u20131854)\nCOCKBURN, ALICIA, or ALISON (1713-1994) [next]",

        "raw_content": "Write for Rights: Write a Letter, Change a Life w/ Amnesty International\nAmnesty International\u2019s Write for Rights is the world\u2019s largest human rights event. Its history goes back 16 years when a young woman had just returned from traveling through Africa where she\u2019d seen activists organizing 24-hour events to write protest letters to governments.\nHer local Amnesty group in Poland decided to write Urgent Action appeals for 24 hours. They emailed their idea to other Polish groups, then their idea went viral. People started sending back pictures of themselves writing letters \u2013 by Niagara Falls, the Tower of London, in Japan, in Mongolia. It was a spontaneous, grassroots initiative that grew.\nA letter - either hand-written or pre-printed - is still one of the most powerful tools we have as activists. When thousands of people write the same letter, our voices united cannot be ignored, and we help change lives for the better. As messages flood mailboxes, prisoners\u2019 conditions improve or they are released. Torture stops. Executions are halted. Change happens. Hope grows.\nEvery year to mark Human Rights Day (the signing of the \u201cUniversal Declaration of Human Rights\u201d) on December 10, hundreds of thousands of people around the world send letters and sign online petitions on behalf of someone they have never met as part of Write for Rights. Our messages help convince government officials to release people imprisoned for expressing their opinion (called \u201cprisoners of conscience\u201d by Amnesty), support human rights defenders, stop torture, commute death sentences, and end other human rights abuses.\nJust this year on June 8, Write for Rights 2014 case Eskinder Nega, a former prisoner of conscience often thought of as the face of \u201cJournalist at Risk\u201d, spoke here at the New York Society for Ethical Culture shortly after his release. He, along with other prisoners of conscience Dr. Bekele Gerba, Soliyana Shimeles and Andualem Aragie, as well as African activists and politicians, were part of an Amnesty International panel: Human Rights Crisis in Ethiopia and Implications for Accountable Governments in East Africa. Mr. Nega stated several times that they would not be free today if not for people like us who write on their behalf.\nHow it works: Amnesty identifies ten urgent cases among their thousands of cases (prisoners of conscience, human rights defenders, torture survivors, and communities at risk) where global activism can make a huge impact. It supplies information on each case and prewritten letters. Participants can choose to just sign the letter and address the envelope, or to handwrite a personal letter with the information supplied. This year, we hope to surpass four-million actions and make a difference in the lives of all ten cases.\nYou can help. The human rights defenders in this year\u2019s cases \u2014 all of them involving women \u2014 are counting on you. Some are in jail. Others are under dire threat. All of them targeted for their human rights work.\nPlease join us Sunday, December 9, at 1:00pm in Ceremonial Hall, as we partner with Amnesty International USA Group 9 and 280 to let the people in this year\u2019s ten cases know they have not been forgotten. Amnesty will supply preprinted letters, envelopes, printed address labels, pens, case histories and refreshments. All you need to bring is yourself (return address labels are optional). International stamps for letters you sign would be greatly appreciated, but are not required.\nTaner K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7, a 2017 Write for Rights case, spent over a year in prison for his peaceful human rights activism. People like you came together and helped both comfort him and pressure Turkish authorities to free him. After his release, Taner said, \u201cTo everyone who sent me countless letters from around the world I want to express my deep gratitude. While in prison, these actions lifted my spirit.\u201d",

        "title": "Joseph\u2019s bones \u2013 Influence after death",
        "raw_content": "FAITHFUL UNDER PRESSURE AUTHOR Michael Gowen 03 FEBRUARY 2019 13:00 h GMT+1\nPhoto: Lalo Hern\u00e1ndez (Unsplash, CC0)\nWhen the Israelites left Egypt under Moses\u2019 leadership, they took a very strange package with them: \u201cMoses took the bones of Joseph with him because Joseph had made the sons of Israel swear an oath. He had said, \u2018God will surely come to your aid, and then you must carry my bones up with you from this place\u2019\u201d (Exodus 13:19).\nOf all the 12 brothers, one would have expected Joseph to be the one most attached to Egypt. For, after a shaky start, Egypt had been very good to him. He had been a key figure in the Egyptian court for 80 years and had no doubt lived a life of considerable influence and luxury. He, above all the other brothers, could have been expected to promote the benefits of the Egyptian system. Yet only he, and not one of the other 11, gave these instructions.\nFor Joseph was a man of faith who listened to God, even though he was surrounded by pagan religion and probably obliged through his position to take part in many pagan ceremonies. He told his brothers, \u201cI am about to die. But God will surely come to your aid and take you up out of this land to the land he promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, \u2026 and then you must carry my bones up from this place.\u201d (Genesis 50:24-25).\n300 years later Moses remembered this oath, searched out Joseph\u2019s coffin and hurriedly prepared it for transportation. I recently visited the Egyptian section of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford and saw at first hand Egyptian coffins and their mummified bodies. Joseph had been embalmed in the Egyptian manner (Genesis 50:26) and carrying his coffin around wherever the Israelites went was no small task. But they took their oaths very seriously then!\nWhy was Joseph so insistent about this? Why did he put the Israelites to this? Could he not have stayed buried in Egypt, like his brothers and his sons? No! For he realised something profound: we may still have an influence on this earth long after we have passed on from it.\nThis is seen most clearly in the arts. We still love to watch Shakespeare\u2019s plays, 300 years after his death. We still admire (and pay a lot of money for) the paintings of Van Gogh, over 100 years after the end of his short life, and we will do for many years to come.\nWe see it in politico-religious life. Henry VIII\u2019s dissolution of the monasteries has left a profound imprint on English religious life over the past 450 years. The shaping of the Church of England by his daughter Elizabeth I - requiring loyalty but tolerating a certain diversity of practice - has left its mark on that church even today.\nJoseph left behind nothing of artistic value; and his rule in Egypt had no influence on the future Israelite kingdom. However, there is a more intangible, spiritual influence, which is open for all of us to exercise, even if we have no great artistic talent or political or religious power. The presence of Joseph\u2019s bones with the Israelites was a daily visual aid of God\u2019s faithfulness.\n\u2018Not this **** coffin again!\u2019 You can imagine the complaints of those who had to put it back on the cart for transportation each day. Then somebody would reply, \u2018Don\u2019t say that! He was the great-grandson of our father Abraham. He was forced to live in Egypt, but he knew that one day we would come back to the land which God had promised to Abraham. So when I see his coffin, it gives me confidence that God will definitely fulfil his promise to us.\u2019 And he did.\nWe see that same kind of influence in Hudson Taylor, the pioneering missionary to China in the 19th century. He learnt Chinese, dressed in Chinese clothes, and went to places in the interior of China where there were no other expatriates, unlike most other missionaries of his time. His goal was not to have Chinese Christians become like English Christians, but to have them become Chinese Christians in a Chinese-led church.\nTaylor died in 1905. 45 years later the Communists took over in mainland China and expelled all Christian missionaries. Things looked grim for the Chinese church. I remember debates in the 1970s as to whether there were actually any Christians left in China, after the brutal persecution of the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). Then, gradually, news started filtering out of a network of thousands of indigenous, Chinese-led, Chinese-grown house churches, which had maintained a vital spiritual life underground for over 25 years under intense persecution. These house churches formed the foundation for the spectacular growth in Christianity in China, to the point that there are now up to 100 million Chinese Christians.\nHudson Taylor\u2019s insistence that Chinese Christians should be authentically Chinese and lead their churches lived on well beyond his death, and enabled the Chinese church to survive many years of severe persecution, and to thrive. Of course, all that was not due to Hudson Taylor alone; but his role was significant and beyond what he could ever have imagined.\nInfluence after death can be negative too. 40 years after the death of King Manasseh, Judah was destabilised by foreign raiders. \u201cThese things happened to Judah \u2026 because of the sins of Manasseh and all he had done, \u2026 for he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood\u201d (2 Kings 24:4).\nWhile we are alive, we have the opportunity to lay foundations which will influence our world long after we are gone: our family, our church, our work sphere, or wherever. We do this not by empire building \u2013 which is the way of the world \u2013 but by following Joseph\u2019s example. \u201cBy faith he gave instructions about his bones\u201d (Hebrews 11:22). When we respond in faith to God\u2019s prompting, who knows how far the influence of our actions will go?\nYOUR ARE AT: Evangelical Focus - MAGAZINE - Faithful under Pressure - Joseph\u2019s bones \u2013 Influence after death",

        "raw_content": "NEW ELID, TERISMARK \u2013 In what was considered the most successful military operation in its history, the Terisian Guard raided and captured the entire New Elid cell of a subversive militant group known as the Legion of Liberty.\nThe faction was just one of many terrorist cells of the widespread organization, which experts estimate to number in the hundreds of members, and it is believed to have dozens of cells, called \u201ccharters,\u201d spread throughout every region of the continent.\nThe raid was conducted in the early morning hours of 13 Jolanus at the group\u2019s alleged safehouse in New Elid\u2019s Wornwood District. The Guard seized a \u201csmall armory\u201d of advanced weaponry, a \u201csubstantial amount\u201d of illicit drugs, believed to have been used to fund the group\u2019s activities, and an undisclosed number of books of a \u201cseditious nature\u201d that were stored on stolen military devices. The literature was being distributed to the poor in an attempt to incite uprising. Officials claim a total of nine were apprehended, whereby they were sentenced to death by hanging under direct orders from Terisian Speaker Svir Sorren under charge of high treason.\n\u201cToday, a heavy blow was delivered by the Terisian Guard,\u201d said Sorren in a press conference the day following the raid. \u201cLet this be an example to other nations that peace and justice will prevail. And to the remaining terrorists at large \u2013 there is nowhere to hide.\u201d\nShortly following the execution, Terisian and international human rights groups, including Free Citizens Confederacy International, released an official statement condemning the execution, saying the group was denied a fair trial.\nRadimir Kolkot, top FCCI lawyer, sharply criticized the act as an atrocity. \u201cThe very essence of liberty has been undermined. We must not let any entity, state or otherwise, behavior with such unfettered abandon. What\u2019s to stop the Terisian regime from executing any of us?\u201d said Kolkot. \u201cI believe those nine were the victims of state-sponsored murder.\u201d\nCitizens are urged to report any suspicious activity to local authorities, especially any individuals thought to belong to the Legion of Liberty. Members can be easily identified by a metal skull and wreath insignia pin worn on their clothing.",

        "raw_content": "Legendary Pink Dots \u2014 Ancient Daze\n(Beta-lactam Ring mt120a, 1997/2006, CD)\nSince forming in the early 80s, The Legendary Pink Dots have been quite prolific in their recorded output of 60+ releases. Initially they were part of the cassette culture releasing quite a few during their formative years. With the advent of the Compact Disc, the band has been slowly reissuing their cassette back catalog in parallel with their new music. Actually Ancient Daze first appeared as a CDR in 1997, but the current Beta-lactam Ring release is slightly different. Ancient Daze contains 12 tracks from the cassette Only Dreaming released in 1981, three tracks from the double cassette Chemical Playschool 1+2 also released in 1981, and four previously unreleased tracks. There is also a limited edition vinyl double LP version being released later this year. Raymond Steeg, the Dots recording engineer, spent a lot of time and effort restoring the sound from the cassette masters and teasing out the music for this reissue. Some of these songs appear in different versions on other LPD releases such as the Legendary Pink Box and Curse. Fortunately, what we now have on Ancient Daze are the earliest recordings of these songs sounding better than ever. This release is for the ardent LPD fan and collector; it may not appeal to everyone, especially those of you who have grown used to the clean recordings being produced today. If you simply must own everything ever recorded by the Dots, then Ancient Daze is a must have. Otherwise, focus instead on their more recent work.\nRelated artist(s): Edward Ka-Spel, Legendary Pink Dots, The Silverman (Phil Knight)\nGolden Avant-Garde - Golden Avant-Garde \u2013 Existing from around 1986 through the early 90s, Golden Avant-Garde was formed around mainstays Chihiro Saito (bass) and Takeshi Naganuma (drums), the former having played with Katra Turana and his...

        "raw_content": "Preston Sprinkle \u2014 June 11, 2014 \u2014 1 Comment\nHere\u2019s an excerpt from my new book on grace titled, Charis: God\u2019s Scandalous Grace Toward Us (Colorado Springs: David C. Cook, 2014) , pp. 25-28. The book will be released July 1, 2014.\nGrace has no leash. It\u2019s untamed, unbound, and runs wild and free. Some Christians believe that we\u2019ve got to have some sort of balance\u2014we need to keep grace under control. When it snaps our leash and runs loose around our gated community, we get nervous.\nIn many ways, the word grace has lost its stunning beauty, and perhaps through overuse, it\u2019s become just another Christianese buzzword. We use the word grace in flat ways. My students ask for \u201cgrace\u201d when they turn in assignments late. \u201cCome on, Professor. Give me grace.\u201d But divine grace is more than leniency, more than allowing exceptions to a rule.\nOthers say that grace means \u201cunconditional acceptance.\u201d God accepts people even though they have not met his standard. This is true. Sort of. But it\u2019s still a decaffeinated definition. It fails to capture the divine aggression that invigorates grace and causes it to lurch upon the unworthy.\nGrace is more than just leniency and unconditional acceptance. Divine grace is God\u2019s relentless and loving pursuit of His enemies, who are unthankful, unworthy, and unlovable. Grace is not just God\u2019s ability to save sinners, but God\u2019s stubborn delight in His enemies\u2014yes, even the creepy ones. Grace means that despite our filth, despite the sewage running through our veins, despite our odd addiction to food, drink, sex, porn, pride, self, money, comfort, and success, God\ndesires to transform us into real ingredients of divine happiness.\nWe demean grace by reducing it to another Christianese buzzword. The original Greek word for grace is charis (with a hard \u201cch,\u201d like karis). Charis was not invented by Christians. Charis didn\u2019t originate with Jesus, Peter, or Paul. The word charis, in fact, was used widely in the ancient world where Jesus grew up. When Jesus walked through Palestine talking about God\u2019s charis, His hearers knew what the word meant. When Paul traversed the Mediterranean world heralding a message of charis, he would have been readily understood by anyone who spoke Greek. If Paul talked about charis in the marketplace, the vendors would have understood him. If he got into a debate with Greek philosophers, they, too, would have grasped the meaning of charis.\nThat\u2019s because charis simply means \u201cgift.\u201d When we say \u201cgift,\u201d the ancients would have said \u201ccharis.\u201d It means the same thing. Rich people in the ancient world often gave charises, or gifts, to other people. They would donate charises to their hometown: a fountain in the city square, a statue of Zeus next to the courthouse. They would give a charis to someone in need of food or shelter. The wealthy were eager to give gifts to people. Why? Because the ability to give a charis showed (or showed off) that they had the means to give.\nWhen rich people gave a charis to this person and a charis to that person\u2014\u201chere\u2019s a shekel to buy some food\u201d\u2014they didn\u2019t give it indiscriminately. The ancients gave charises only to those who were worthy to receive it. Charis was given to people who were worthy of charis: those who had a high status or who were morally upright, intellectually astute, or physically impressive. After all, we wouldn\u2019t want to squander our charis on some bum in the gutter who\u2019s unworthy of our gift. A rich person wouldn\u2019t waste charises on outcasts, the unappreciative, or thugs who had nothing to offer in return.\nJesus and His followers gutted the word charis and infused it with fresh meaning, with life-giving power. Jesus did more than give charis to the unworthy dregs of society. He made it His mission to seek them out. \u201cThe Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost\u201d (Luke 19:10). He didn\u2019t just give charis to the beggars who crossed His path. Jesus hunted them down and showered them with gifts. The same Jesus who overturned tables in the temple overturned the social norms for dispensing charis. Naturally, Jesus would be especially drawn to cannibalistic fornicators with a sick attraction to dead people, like Jeffrey Dahmer\u2014the man who killed, had sex with, and then ate (in that order) 17 young men before Jesus rescued his soul from hell in 1994.\nThat\u2019s the stuff I\u2019m talking about. That\u2019s grace. That\u2019s charis.\nIn Books, Theology\tCharis, Grace\nPreston Sprinkle \u2014 September 18, 2012 \u2014 Leave a comment\nI\u2019ve been wrestling with the ethical issues surrounding Joshua\u2019s conquest for the last couple posts. In the last one, I set some groundwork regarding the people (Canaanites) and the land (Canaan). This doesn\u2019t solve all the moral problems, but it does put us in a better place to tackle the question: How could the God of love command a wholesale slaughter of the Canaanites?\nIn this post, I\u2019d like to talk about one important feature in the Canaanite conquest: God\u2019s preemptive strike of grace.\nGod commanded Joshua to eliminate the Canaanites, though not without warning. This point is often missed\u2014or ignored\u2014by skeptics who highlight the shear brutality of the conquest. Way back in Genesis 15, God told Abram that he would have to wait 430 years before his people would take full ownership of the land. The reason is that \u201cthe iniquity of the Amorites [one of the Canaanite nations] is not yet complete\u201d (Gen. 15:16). In other words, though the Canaanites were sinful (aren\u2019t we all?), they hadn\u2019t exhausted God\u2019s patience yet. They had 430 years to turn from their wickedness to the God of Israel.\nBut would such a \u201cturn to God\u201d have been realistic? After all, how would they know about this God of Israel?\nGood question. One that the Bible clearly answers. After God wrecked havoc on Egypt and brought his people through the Red Sea, His divine power was broadcasted across the world. All the nations knew about this God of Israel, even those living in Canaan. The Canaanites living in the city of Gibeon are a case in point. After Israel entered the land, the citizens of Gibeon came to Joshua and said: \u201cwe have heard a report of Him, and all that He did in Egypt\u201d (Josh. 9:9). Therefore, \u201cWe are your servants. Come now, make a covenant with us\u201d (Josh. 9:11). God trumpeted his reputation across the ancient world, and these particular Canaanites not only heard it but turned to Him (albeit through espionage).\nThe most well-known example of someone accepting God\u2019s preemptive strike of grace was Rahab, the prostitute living in Jericho. Like the Gibeonites, Rahab says that all the people of Jericho \u201chave heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea\u2026and as soon as we heard it, our hearts melted, and there was no spirit left in any man because of you\u201d (Josh. 2:10-11). Even though they all came face to face with God\u2019s grace and could have accepted it, only Rahab would go on to confess that \u201cthe LORD your God, he is God in the heavens above and on the earth beneath\u201d (Josh. 2:11). Instantly, God removed her sins as far as the east is from the west. But the rest of the people of Jericho and many other Canaanite cities chose to remain in their wickedness and oppose the God of Israel.\nBut even if they didn\u2019t believe the report they heard about the God of Israel, Joshua intentionally had his soldiers march around the city for seven days. Think about it. Jericho probably only contained a few hundred people (a few thousand at best), and Israel numbered around 600,000! The soldiers in Jericho had 7 days to give into what was clearly an inevitable victory for the Israelites. And yet they chose to reject the God of Israel and defend their city. The point being: the 7 day march around the city was yet another offer of grace by the God of Israel, an offer taken up by Rahab yet rejected by the rest of Jericho\u2019s inhabitants. Grace: God\u2019s preemptive strike.\nAgain, there still remains moral problems with the conquest that we will get to. (What about the slaughter of women and children?) But before we do, we need to have a more thorough perspective on what we are dealing with. In sum, the conquest was the Creator\u2019s punishment for extreme and relentless wickedness among people living in God\u2019s special residence, who rejected clear and undeserved offers of grace. Whatever you think about the conquest as a whole, you have to distinguish between arbitrary killing\u2014genocide\u2014and retributive punishment. Old Testament scholar Christopher Wright articulates it well:\n\u201cThere is a huge moral difference between arbitrary violence and violence inflicted within the moral framework of punishment\u201d (Wright, Old Testament Ethics, 476).\nThe conquest, like the flood, was divine capital punishment after hundreds of years of rejected grace.\nIn The Bible, Theology\tCanaanite Genocide, Grace",

        "title": "UPS' LTL Trucks May be Off the Road for a While",
        "raw_content": "Mark Solomon, Managing Editor, Markets | Monday, November 5, 2018\nUPS Inc. (NYSE:UPS) said today it will temporarily suspend the operations of its less-than-truckload unit, UPS Freight, at least until Teamsters union members vote for a second time on a collective bargaining agreement, and it has advised customers in the meantime to seek alternate sources of capacity.\nAtlanta-based UPS said in a statement that it took the action to avoid stranding customer volumes in its system should the Teamsters call a strike of 12,000 UPS employees at the unit. UPS said it plans to empty its pipeline of freight by Nov. 9.\nThe rank-and-file will cast votes between Nov. 9 and 11 on the second iteration of a five-year collective-bargaining agreement that members rejected once before. The votes are set to be counted on Nov. 11. The union has said it can call a strike any time after 12:01 AM ET Nov. 12 if the second version is rejected. Barring ratification, a 30-day contract extension that was agreed to last month would expire on that date, meaning that the current contract would lapse. Should the latest version be ratified, operations would resume the next day or shortly thereafter, according to Glenn Zaccara, a UPS spokesman.\nIn the statement, UPS said the tentative pact \u201crewards our employees with wages and benefits at the top of the industry and compensates them for their contributions to the success of the company.\u201d It expressed disappointment that Teamster freight leaders have \u201cchosen to announce the potential\u201d for a strike if the latest proffer is turned down.\nMore than 60 percent of UPS Freight voters rejected the initial proposal in October, saying it proposed substandard wage increases and did virtually nothing to address the contentious issue of line-haul driver subcontracting. The second version, which was put before members after negotiators met on Oct. 25, was a modest improvement over the original, according to the UPS Freight negotiating committee. Still, it wasn\u2019t good enough for the committee to recommend ratification, it said. Should the members reject the latest version, the committee said it would have no choice but to call a strike once the 30-day extension period expires.\nUPS had characterized its second proposal as a last, best and final offer. The Teamsters said in a statement today that UPS has no one else to blame for the current situation. \u201cThis company made the decision to give a last, best and final offer and to stop taking freight,\u201d the union said. \u201cThis could all have been resolved by the company addressing the key issues at the negotiating table.\u201d\nAccording to a letter sent to an unidentified UPS Freight customer and obtained by Freightwaves, effective today no UPS Freight volume will be picked up if its delivery date is past November 8. As a result, today will be the deadline for pick-ups that have five-day shipping commitments, while tomorrow will be the last day for shipments with four-day delivery deadlines, according to the letter. Next Wednesday will be the last day for pick-ups under the emergency schedule, and that would only be for shipments scheduled for next-day deliveries.\nUPS has pledged that customers with bundled contracts and those with financial incentives dependent on UPS Freight will be made financially whole. UPS Freight is the nation\u2019s fifth-largest LTL carrier with 2017 annual revenue of about $2.6 billion. It employs about 12,000 Teamster members. It moved 2.8 billion pounds in the third quarter, according to company data.\nUnlike the larger and fragmented truckload sector, the lion\u2019s share of LTL freight is hauled on the trucks of about 8 to 10 carriers. LTL capacity is already tight even with UPS Freight in service. \u201cToday\u2019s announcement will leave many retailers scrambling to find alternative carriers\u201d as the holiday shipping season approaches, according to Rob Martinez, president and CEO of Shipware, LLC, a transport consultancy. UPS Freight customers will need to contact other carriers directly, or work with brokers and 3PLs to procure capacity, he said.\nAccording to a source closely involved with LTL, the top 10 carriers will end up with about 95 percent of any diverted business. Overall on-time performance will fall by 5 to 10 percent, and there will be more incidents of damaged freight. All users will be hit with price increases, with small to mid-size businesses being hit with 10 to 20 percent hikes until at least the first quarter, the source predicted.\nFor some of the more militant Teamster factions, a strike against UPS Freight is the ultimate leverage given that the company and mainstream Teamster leadership\u2014which negotiated the original agreement\u2014clearly don\u2019t want a strike. Some in the union are steaming over the leadership\u2019s decision to ratify the much-larger small-package contract even though 54 percent of those voting had rejected it. The leadership invoked the so-called two-thirds provision in the Teamster constitution that requires a contract to be ratified if less than 50 percent of eligible voters cast ballots, unless two-thirds or more who voted rejected it. About 42 percent of 209,000 eligible voters cast ballots.\nThe same scenario could be replayed at UPS Freight. However, it would seem doubtful that voting interest among the rank-and-file would have waned since early October.\nThe company is taking on some risk as well, especially if diverted business never returns. That was one of the outcomes of the famous 15-day nationwide Teamster strike in 1997 that shut down UPS\u2019 system and sent mountains of parcels elsewhere. Some of that business never went back to UPS. The company did not have a dedicated LTL operation back then.\nZaccara, the UPS spokesman, declined to speculate on what would happen if the Teamsters rejected the latest version but its leadership waited beyond Nov. 12 to call a strike.",

        "raw_content": "\u00ab Dissecting Polygons\nArea of a Circle \u00bb\nMy 6th graders had a blast last Friday blowing bubbles.\nUpon their return on Monday, I asked for ten groups to volunteer just one set of their circumference and diameter numbers. Then I asked, \u201cWhat is the relationship between these numbers?\u201d Some quiet mumbling, then just quiet. I asked again, \u201cI have these 10 sets of numbers. What should I do with each set of numbers to see if there\u2019s a relationship between them? I want you to use your calculator to do something with these two numbers and find out for me.\u201d\nThey were busy punching in numbers. After a few minutes\u2026\nMe: What are you punching into your calculator?\nMatt: I\u2019m dividing the numbers.\nMe: Why divide? Why not add or subtract? Or multiply the numbers?\nMatt: Adding and subtracting don\u2019t tell you anything. Just doesn\u2019t make sense.\nSophia: The circumference is always bigger than the diameter. So I think I want to know how many times it\u2019s bigger.\nMe: Class, do you agree that we should divide circumference by diameter? (Lots of nods around the room.)\nWhile they continued with their own bubble numbers, I filled in the \u201crelationship\u201d column for the 10 volunteered sets from earlier.\nThey were skeptical \u2014 didn\u2019t know what to make of the \u201crelationship\u201d column. I said, \u201cI think measuring a bubble imprint with a string is not easy. It was fun to blow bubbles, for sure. But what about it that may have affected how your numbers came out?\u201d\nThe bubbles were sometimes oval shaped.\nHard to keep the string perfect.\nIt can get messy!\nMaybe some people didn\u2019t measure the widest part.\nMaybe they measured in centimeters for one part and inches for another.\nIt was so much fun! (I can always count on a random answer.)\nI said, \u201cBecause our bubble numbers could use some help. Let\u2019s do a clean run through this again, this time using paper and pencil.\u201d\nI asked them to draw two to three different sized circles on notebook paper \u2014 measure the diameter and circumference of each one. I showed them how to \u201cwalk\u201d the string around the circle for better accuracy \u2014 press and let go, press and let go\u2026 They knew that if they started from one end of a diameter, walked the string around the circle, to the other end of the diameter, then they just needed to multiply this by two to get the circumference.\nI asked them to find the \u201crelationship\u201d number again for each circle.\nThe paper in top row, left, reads: All of them are around 3, which is close to pi. Other papers didn\u2019t include observations or conjectures, and a few wrote they weren\u2019t so sure.\nBut when we shared ALL the \u201crelationship\u201d numbers that the class had \u2014 over 60 of them as each student did at least 2 circles \u2014 and they were pretty well convinced that the diameter was \u201cabout 3 times longer\u201d than the diameter!!\nI showed them this very short video to reflect the simple work that we did.\nNext up, we are going to find the AREA of a circle!!!!!!!\nThis entry was posted in Course 1 (6th Grade Math), Geometry and tagged area, bubbles, circumference, diameter, pi, problem solving.

        "raw_content": "What is nickel?\nNickel is a silver-coloured metal found naturally in the environment which can trigger allergic contact dermatitis in about 10 \u2013 20% of the worldwide population. It is often mixed with other metals and used to make various items, including jewellery, coins, keys, cell phones and glasses frames. Small amounts of nickel are also found in many foods, including certain grains, fruits, and vegetables.\nWhat are the symptoms of nickel allergy?\nA skin reaction usually develops within 12 to 48 hours after coming into contact with an item containing nickel and lasts for 2 to 4 weeks. Symptoms of a nickel allergy include:\nSkin rash or bumps\nRedness or other changes in skin colour\nDry patches on the skin that resemble a burn\nBlisters (in severe cases)\nEating foods containing small amounts of nickel may also trigger an immune response that causes a skin reaction.\nSome patients need to go on a low nickel diet. However, this regimen is difficult to follow not only because it affects the patient\u2019s quality of life, but also because many nickel-containing foods also contain essential elements and vitamins that are important for human health.\nNickel immunotherapy consists of increasing dosages of nickel sulphate in capsules. Combined with a nickel-free diet, nickel immunotherapy has been successfully confirmed in many clinical trials and adopted in real-life conditions.",

        "title": "Retirement Pitfalls to Avoid - Financial Slacker",
        "raw_content": "Are you prepared to navigate the maze of retirement pitfalls that you may encounter along your road to financial independence and early retirement?\nI understand that everyone wants to retire by the age of 35. But realistically, for many (or most) people, that is not an option. If you start working at the age of 25 and work for ten years, and then expect to have saved enough to never work again for the next 65 years, you better be making lots of money and saving every penny. You also better have side income sources (rental properties, businesses, dividend stocks) or sell a company to have adequate cash flow to cover your needs for many years to come. I\u2019m not saying it can\u2019t be done, just know that it will require a focused effort to reach that level at such an early age.\nFor those that have the resources, creativity, and drive to make early retirement a reality, go for it. For the rest of the world, we may need to work a little (or quite a bit) longer to reach our goals. But that\u2019s not all together bad. Just because you still need a job, doesn\u2019t mean the job has to make you miserable. If you\u2019re willing to look, there are options that provide flexibility, a sense of accomplishment, and generate a good income.\nEither way, as you work toward your personal retirement goals \u2013 no matter what age, there are some retirement pitfalls that can slow you down and maybe even derail all those great plans.\nCommon Retirement Pitfalls\nHere are some of the most common retirement pitfalls you may encounter:\nKids. I hate to say it this way, but one of the biggest pitfalls that can impact your ability to retire at 35 or even 45 is having children. I am not saying don\u2019t have children. My kids are my life and I wouldn\u2019t change that for anything. But children can be expensive. And the money you are putting towards your children is money that you will not have for retirement. I have been willing to push out my retirement goals for the sake of providing for my children. This is a personal choice, but one that should be considered.\nAdult Children. In addition to the costs to raise children, you can also find yourself continuing to spend money on your kids long after they have grown. With the average college student graduating with over $35,000 in student loan debt and meager job prospects, it\u2019s not uncommon for parents to find themselves providing for their children long after they thought they would.\nAging Parents. Along the same line, depending on your parents financial situation, you may find yourself funding a portion of their retirement. Significant medical expenses can be especially significant for some if your parents are under-insured. If your parents are going to require financial assistance, start discussing and begin preparing early for how you will handle this.\nFailing to Reconcile Differing Views From Your Significant Other. It\u2019s not necessary that both parties have the same view on spending, saving, investing, and retirement; but, it is necessary for those differing views to be reconciled. If one partner likes to spend, there needs to be a mechanism for controlling that spend. This really comes down to communication. And the more each party communicates with the other and shares their perspective, the better chance the pair have to find good solutions.\nToo Much House. For most people, their house is the largest single expenditure they will make in their lifetime. But if you\u2019re not careful, that expenditure and all the expenses that go along with it can keep you from meeting your retirement goals. The bigger and more expensive the house, the greater the expenses above and beyond the mortgage. Items such as taxes, insurance, utilities, and maintenance can all add up. But with a bigger house often comes the social pressure to spend more on other items like cars, club memberships, private schools, and trips. Don\u2019t be house poor.\nExpensive Cars. Other than their house, for many people, their car is the next largest expense item. For many, it has become almost expected that they will buy at least one car per driver. And many times, you\u2019ll see families continuing to trade in their used car for a new one every three or four years, thereby always having a car payment. This in turn leads people to decide, why not lease since I already have a car payment? It\u2019s a vicious cycle and spending that much money on a car that sits idle for 95% of the time will dramatically impact your progress to retirement. If you want a good rule of thumb, see the article written by Financial Samurai about not spending more than 10% of your gross income on a car. To clarify for those inclined to buy expensive cars, that\u2019s the total value of the car not exceeding 10% of your gross income.\nExtravagant Travel. There are ways to travel inexpensively and there are ways not to. If you are willing to put in the work and have some flexibility, you can sometimes get pretty good deals. It often depends on the time of year you travel and where you go. This is another area that can be significantly impacted with children. If you have no kids, you can travel when you want (within the confines of your job). But with children, you\u2019ll usually have to travel when they are out of school which coincidentally coincides with the busy season for many popular vacation spots.\nBig-Ticket Items. We have already covered some of the main big-ticket items above, but others can creep up and derail your retirement plans. Items such as large pieces of furniture, entertainment centers, even room additions and home renovations are all potentially expensive items. As you contemplate one of these items, think about how much it is really going to cost you. Not just now, but in the future. And ask yourself, how much value will I get from this purchase?\nPoor Spending Habits. This is a general statement, but have you ever noticed that some people are just naturally frugal. They cut coupons and bargain shop for the best deals on everything. They truly do not like to spend money and will do whatever they can to minimize their spending. If you can develop this mentality, it will serve you well getting to retirement.\nCredit Card Debt. I left this for last because if you don\u2019t remember anything else from this article, remember this. Credit card debt is the greatest of all retirement pitfalls. While you are carrying credit card debt or any other high interest consumer loan debt, you will never reach retirement. If you have any credit card debt, stop spending, stop investing and pay it off as soon as you can. This is the best return you can get on your money without a doubt. Hopefully, that was clear enough.\nAs you look out for these retirement pitfalls, don\u2019t just ask yourself how much they cost today, but how much they will cost you in the future. Based on your income level, you might be able to afford many of these items. But that may mean putting off retirement for years and years. Is it really worth spending $30,000 to put in a home theater when that same money invested at 6% over 20 years will grow to nearly $100,000!\nWhat other retirement pitfalls do you run into? How do you resist the temptation to spend today?\nPrevious Post: \u00ab Pay Yourself First Using Buckets Not Budgets\nNext Post: Reinvent Yourself Every 15 Years \u00bb\nThese areall very real pitfalls that could affect any of us. It just shows that maybe you want to a for a slightly higher FI number so you can protect in case any of these happen in your life.\nIt is unbelievable how much you can spend on a car. And when you divide the cost by the usage, it might be less expensive for a family to own one car and Uber everywhere else when you need to be in two places at the same time.\nWith respect to kids, parents, and adult children, the expense is difficult to anticioate. One solution is to set up a separate emergency fund to cover unanticipated and unplanned costs.\nDivHut says\nA great list that can show how easily retirement goals can be thrown off course. Of course, many people these days are living in the sandwich generation taking care of children and parents. We are all living longer which not only puts a strain on your own retirement figures but we\u2019re also stretch caring for elder parents living into their 90s and beyond.",

        "title": "Firearms History, Technology & Development: The M16 Family III - The Clones",
        "raw_content": "A couple of posts ago, we looked at various members of the M16 family. All of the models we have looked at so far, have been developed for the needs of the American military. In today's post, we will look at some more members of the M16 family that were developed by other countries.\nIn 1984, Canada decided to equip their military with a new rifle and wanted to go with the NATO standard cartridge 5.56x45 mm. In order to save development time and money, they decided to purchase the license to manufacture M16s of their own. A little while earlier, the US Marines were working towards improving the M16A1 model to the M16A2. A Canadian military liaison officer was also present while the Marines were working on improvements and he communicated some of these design changes back to Canada. As a result of this, the Canadian C7 rifle was developed with some features of the M16A1 and some of the M16A2. A Canadian company, Diemaco, was put in charge of manufacturing the new rifle.\nC7 (top) and C7A1 (bottom) rifles\nThe C7 rifle has the stronger and longer stock, barrel with 1 turn in 7 inches twist rate, pistol grip and handguards of the M16A2, but retains the older rear sights of the M16A1, as well as the same firing modes of the M16A1 (single shot and fully automatic). One more major difference, which is not obvious, is that the C7 barrel is manufactured by the hammer-forging process.\nThe C7A1 incorporated some improvements to the C7, the main one being the replacement of the carrying handle, with a rail that allows the user to attach other devices here, such as iron sights or optics. This is similar to the M16A4 model, however the C7A1 preceded the adoption of the Picatinny rail by the US military, therefore the rail on the C7A1 is of slightly different dimensions than the now standard picatinny rails.\nThe C7 and C7A1 models are now being replaced by the C7A2 model in the Canadian military. The C7A2 has picatinny rails, in order to be standards compatible with all the accessories that are made to fit on a picatinny rail. It also has rails in front to attach laser pointers or lights. Unlike the previous models, it has a telescoping stock. One more major difference is that the C7A2 rifle furniture is green in color, instead of black. Other changes include ambidextrous magazine release and ambidextrous safety selector levers.\nThe C7A2 model rifle\nThe C7 family also comes with corresponding carbine variants, the C8, C8A1 and C8A2. The C7 and C8 families are used by the military forces of Canada, Netherlands, Denmark, United Kingdom (Special Forces mostly), Norway (Special Forces), Canadian Police etc. In 2005, Diemaco (the company that made the rifles in Canada) was bought out by Colt and is now known as Colt Canada.\nAnother manufacturer of M16 clones is Singapore's ST Kinetics, which produces the M16S1 for Singapore's military. The M16S1 is simply a M16A1 made under a license by ST Kinetics.\nAnother clone of the M16 family is the Chinese made Norinco CQ. Unlike the C7 family, the Norinco CQ is an unlicensed clone of the M16. While it uses the same 5.56x45 mm. cartridges of the M16, the Norinco CQ was never adopted by the Chinese military. However, they make two models for export, one capable of selecting between single shot and fully automatic fire for military sales and a semi-automatic only version for civilian markets.\nPublic domain image of a Norinco CQ rifle. Click on the image to enlarge.\nIt is pretty easy to tell a Norinco CQ apart from other members of the M16 family. First, notice the shape of the stock is completely different from the M16A1, M16A2, C7, C7A1 etc. Second, the handguards in front are also differently shaped than the other members of the M16 family. Thirdly, the pistol grip is curved on the Norinco CQ. Fourthly, the front sight on a Norinco CQ is of the hooded sight type, instead of a sight post.\nThe barrel of a Norinco CQ has a 1 turn in 12 inches twist rate. Because of this twist rate, it will fire the M193 cartridge designed for the M16A1 properly, but cannot accurately fire the NATO standard SS109 or the newer US M855 cartridge beyond about 100 meters or so (because these require a twist rate of 1:7 for stability in the air).\nWhile the military version of the Norinco CQ was never used by the Chinese military, it is used by military forces of some other countries, such as Cambodia, Syria, Libya, Iran (which makes their own copies of the Norinco CQ), Sudan etc.\nLabels: C7, C7A1, C7A2, C8, C8A1, C8A2, M16, M16 Family, Norinco, Norinco CQ\nchanman November 30, 2013 at 9:20 AM\nNorinco also makes an M4 clone (Sold in Canada as the CQ-A) that looks like a US commercial carbine except for the 14.5 or 10.5 inch barrel. The buffer is commercial, and the hand guard dimensions are slightly out of spec but externally, it is almost indistinguishable from the regular M4. It has a 1/9 twist barrel, so it should be able to fire the full range of military ammunition, although the heavier 77 grain rounds must be approaching the upper limits of that barrel.\nhttp://www.theammosource.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2_24_80\nSome owners of the 10.5\" barrel versions have encountered problems with cheap ammunition failing to cycle the action properly. Norinco may not have enlarged the gas port enough (or at all) for the shorter barrel",

        "raw_content": "1. What Dawn is This? (Overture)\n2. Ritual Fire\n3. Golden Flesh\n4. Fascist Moments\n6. Speak Until Death Comes\n7. What Dawn is This? (Return)\nOn June 15, native New York composer/vocalist/multi- instrumentalist Charlie Looker (Psalm Zero, ex-Extra Life, ex-ZS) will release his solo album Simple Answers, on limited edition double-LP and digital formats, via his own imprint Last Things Records. Featuring a 17-piece chamber orchestra, and four years in the making, this highly experimental concept album is his most ambitious project to date. After a decade of accolades for his work leading underground bands spanning the experimental, indie, and metal scenes, this will also be the first record released under Looker\u2019s own name.\nLooker was a founding member of the experimental collective ZS, establishing his roots in the early 00s Brooklyn DIY scene. In 2007 he formed his own band Extra Life which built a devout international following before disbanding in 2012. Since then, his main performing vehicle has been metal/electronic project Psalm Zero (Profound Lore Records), as well as his chamber works. Looker\u2019s diverse credits as a sideman and/or producer include Dirty Projectors, Tyondai Braxton, Amanda Palmer, Zeal & Ardor, Mick Barr, and Jherek Bischoff. Looker has received commissions and residencies from the Brooklyn Philharmonic, Yarn/Wire, Ostrava New Music Days Festival (Czech), SEM Ensemble, Experiments in Opera (New York), and the Stone (New York). Voted one of the top 100 American composers under 40 by WNYC (2011), his music has been performed at festivals including Primavera Sound (Spain), Ecstatic Music (New York), Bad Bonn (Switzerland), Villette Sonique (France), and Sound Forest (Latvia).\nThe wildly hybrid sound of Simple Answers is based on an orchestral core of strings, winds, brass, and piano, blended with an electronic pallette of 808 drum machines and synths, with Looker\u2019s tenor voice front and center. A departure from his more metallic, guitar-centric work in Psalm Zero, the record forms a unique bridge between disparate sonic realms. The drones and dissonance of abstract modern classical composition, dramatic post-punk vocal hooks, lush 19th Century romanticism, Medieval choral beauty, horror film score cacaphony, and even some rhythms and textures from trap rap and R&B, all come together in cinematic epics, many of which stretch toward the 10-minute mark. Special guest sopranos Daisy Press and Megan Schubert join Looker in harmony on several pieces, after opening the album alone, with an oveture of gothic chant. Members of the International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE), Wet Ink Ensemble, and the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra comprise the wind and brass sections, while strings are rendered by the acclaimed Mivos Quartet. Rising virtuoso pianist/composer Kelly Moran provides piano and keyboards throughout.\nLyrically, the conceptual foundation of the song cycle is an equally gnarled intersection. Using as a departure point the works of two very strange bedfellows, French feminist psychoanalyst/philosopher Julia Kristeva, and legendary American comedian Patrice O\u2019Neal (RIP), Looker uses tropes from both thinkers\u2019 oeuvres to understand the psychology behind today\u2019s global rising tide of fascist ideology. Inherently political, yet primarily psychological and personal, the eight songs spiral further outward, through themes of power, masculinity, Jewish self-hatred, addiction, brainwashing, and the occult, often within a single line.\nSimple Answers is a piece of crossover art music as complex and severe as both the city, and the times, in which it was created. Fans of Scott Walker, Leonard Cohen, ANOHNI, Arthur Russell, Zola Jesus, and Hildegard von Bingen, will resonate with this radical form of dark orchestral pop. As a text, the album will appeal to those eager to confront today\u2019s fascist psychic currents in a nuanced way, lest those currents consume the world with the simple answer of their flames.",

The treasure is going back to Europe on two Spanish C-130s after a five-year legal battle.\nAccording to the AP, the treasure is believed to be from Nuestra Senora de las Mercedes, a galleon sunk in 1804 by British warships traveling in the Atlantic Ocean.

        "raw_content": "home // News // Prince George: Fluoride Issue Returns to Council //\nPrince George: Fluoride Issue Returns to Council\nThe Safe Water Coalition has once again stated its case to City Council of Prince George, asking that the City stop the practice of adding fluoride to the City\u2019s drinking water.\nMayor Dan Rogers invited the four members of the Coalition to the centre table in Council Chambers, and, as is customary, told the speakers there was water at either end of the table for their use.\nThere were no takers.\nThe Safe Water Coalition presented information from a number of reports which cite a variety of studies of health issues linked to different levels of fluoridation. The studies presented noted lowered IQ in children with borderline iodine deficiency when the fluoride is 0.9ppm, to studies which concluded there was a lowering of thyroid activity in the Ukraine when the level was 2.3 ppm.\nThe amount of fluoride added to the City of Prince George water supply is 0.7 ppm.\nThe argument placed before City Council focused on three points:\n1) Is it effective in preventing cavities?\n3) Is it ethical?\nIn his presentation to Council, Dr. James Beck, Professor Emeritus of Medical Biophysics at the University of Calgary and co-author of \u201cThe Case Against Fluoride\u201d, said the first two are scientific questions \u201cThe first of which is not very difficult to answer; the second of which is complex and not completely proven one way or the other; and the third question is one we can judge without special training.\u201d\nDr.Beck says the questionof ethics is clear \u201cfluoridation fails to meet the following requirements of medical ethics: the drug must have been approved for specific use by a qualified body (usually governmental); the dose must be controlled; the recipient must have given informed consent; the effects on the individual must be monitored by a competent professional; and the recipient must be able to stop the administration at will. In fact, a city council that imposes fluoridation is doing what a licensed physician or dentist is not allowed to do.\u201d\nThis is the second time the Safe Water Coalition has appeared before this particular Council. They appeared in late summer of 2009, at which time, Council thanked them for their presentation and said they would stick with status quo.\nIt costs the City of Prince George about $70 thousand a year for the fluoride and the infrastructure. The amount added to the Prince George water supply is 0.7 ppm, that is less than half of the Health Canada limit of 1.5 ppm.\nAs for its legal stand, the City of Prince George had authorization under the Provincial legislation \u201cMunicipalities and Enabling Act\u201d when the City started adding fluoride in 1955.\nCouncillor Munoz says while she understands the Coalition would like to have Council decide to stop the fluoridation process, she says she doesn\u2019t feel she can make that kind of decision for the entire community when it\u2019s a public health matter.\nCouncillor Garth Frizzell says he is compelled by the fluoride panel, \u201cI haven\u2019t found anything that speaks vividly against this. When health issues are brought up they are important to us, but when a body of evidence is brought up, the weight of evidence is in favour of fluoridation.\u201d\nMayor Dan Rogers says as Council has dealt with this issue over the years, \u201cWe\u2019re not the experts,\u201d said Mayor Rogers, who said Council yields to the expertise of the medical professionals in the community for advice on matters of health.\n\u201cIt strikes me that part of this discussion shouldn\u2019t be taken here, but should be with those in the community who are instructed to protect the public\u2019s health\u201d added the Mayor.\nIn February, Council in Calgary voted (10-3) in favour of removing fluoride from their city\u2019s water supply. That vote followed a day long input session with the public. It should be noted though, that in addition to whatever health issue arguments were made , the City of Calgary spends about $750 thousand a year on fluoridation, and would soon be facing a multi- million dollar fluoridation system upgrades to its main water treatment plants.\nSee original article: Graph presented to Council illustrates drop in tooth decay rates with or without fluoride",

        "raw_content": "Warriors vs. Cavs \u2013 Game 1\nFirst I fell asleep on the game but awoke to find that the Warriors won without the outstanding play of their two stars. The bench mob as they like to be described came in and did their jobs. Lebron was and always will be Lebron but Kyrie and Kevin have to find their places in the game on the defensive end to make this a good series.\nThe Cavs played great against eastern conference talent that couldn\u2019t really match them. Now though they are on the NBA Finals stage where to win it all you have to beat the best in the west as well. Well the Cavalier\u2019s haven\u2019t played well in the west all year-long. The games they won were nail biters, sure those are the games that bring team chemistry upfront in the locker room, but there has to be a total buy in from all involved. The Cav\u2019s as long as they were tearing up the eastern conference looked like the eastern version of the Warriors. Now facing them the actual Warriors they have backslid to their old ways partially. I would love to see the Larry O\u2019Brien trophy on the east coast again; however the Warriors aren\u2019t going to just give it to them.\nStephen and Klay are two of the best in the NBA, with a bench that is down right awesome when at home. Stephen is from my area and I like the kid. He has moved to the west coast and become quite the player for the western side of the NBA. I like how the teams play in the final series of the playoffs. It would be great if that same play was exhibited throughout the entire season. I know it is a lot for them to do. Especially with the rule changes.\nI think this will be a great series though. May the best team win.\nAuthor arthur.postonPosted on June 7, 2016 Categories Basketball, SportsTags Cats vs. Warriors, Cleveland, Draymond, Kevin, Klay, Kyrie, LeBron, NBA Finals, Oakland, Steph\n3 thoughts on \u201cWarriors vs. Cavs\u201d\narthur.poston says:\nNow that the games have switched to the east coast let\u2019s see if the Cavs can make at least one game. Until now they have not been a part of these playoffs. Turnovers, jumbled passes, missed defensive assignments etc\u2026. The Cavs have been all over the basketball spectrum lately trying to find some success against the Warriors. They are going to need to dig deep and find out who they are or be man handled by the Warriors. Offense is not the problem their defense is what will bring them alive, they have to realize this and start with defense first. If they can\u2019t then they are done in this series and will need to re-tool for next years push for the finals.\nThe Warriors up until this point have been very resilient it started with their near departure against against the Thunder. As last year proved it seems that the best series are against an opponent in their own conference. The west is stronger than the east at this point. We may have seen the best series with the Thunder vs. Warriors. Hopefully this eastern conference team can muster some spunk and cause the Warriors some discomfort so that us basketball fans can see a battle.\nTill next post, this has been\nThe game last night was exactly what the public wanted, and the NBA gave it to them. Myself I am of the accord that I would rather you beat me not cheat me. I say this because watching the game it was very apparent to me that it was not being called the same for both teams. In the first two games for both team in Oakland California Klay and Steph had problems with fouls. The rest of the team carried them at home as they should have. LeBron as he always does going down the lane trying to play bully ball was not being called for it. I set the seen for the reason, the Warriors had to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers there wasn\u2019t any help given to them by anyone and they were at home. Home cooking should play out in your arena right? Well it certainly played out in Cleveland last night. I won\u2019t get into the rules change that is now in place in the NBA.\nKyrie Irving going to the basket throws himself into a player on a quick change crossover dribble to make sure that if the foul is not called he still has possession of the ball. Smart right, you would think so. I say then how can that move be pulled off if a player \u201cStephen Curry\u201d is in his path the entire time and fouls him on the progression to the basket? It\u2019s not possible. He had this called for him all night long. Curry doesn\u2019t do himself any favors shooting the 3-point shot all the time and not getting into the lane as he should but on a lot of his dribble drives he is being hammered as well and nothing was called at all. When the calls did start to come his way the game was already in the hands of the Cavaliers. It happened a lot during the game it was apparent to probably a lot of people that actually have played at a high level that after the tip this was not going to be a fair played game. Coach Steve Kerr says that his team was not tough enough, while that may be true they weren\u2019t allowed to play tough. Every swipe at the ball, body in position was called against the opposing team.\nhttp://www.nba.com/video/channels/playoffs/finals/2016/06/09/20160608-gt-gsw-cle-gm4-lookahead.nba/\nI want to see a basketball game where the teams no matter who\u2019s floor they are playing on takes one another\u2019s best shot and we the fan gets to see who is left standing. If you allow one team an advantage the outcome will be as we saw last night. Cleveland is a lot slower and not defensively sound and yet tonight it was trying to make us believe that all they needed was to be on their home floor. Defensive prowess does not happen over the course of an NBA series and real players know that. If the same happens in game 5 which it should because the stars for the Warriors should be on the floor that night to show the fans in Cleveland how real basketball is played. The Cavaliers didn\u2019t play better defensively they were allowed to get to places on the floor that they shouldn\u2019t have been allowed to. The Warriors weren\u2019t allowed to keep the Cavaliers uncomfortable as they have all season.\nSo as I said beat them don\u2019t cheat them.\nI think the Warriors will close on Monday. It was almost as if they lost game three so that they could win on their floor. It is not a good idea to do it in that fashion but it certainly will be welcomed by the Warriors fan base. WE finally got a pretty good game. At the end of the third was when the Warriors took control. It was a very chippy game one where both sides was able to get off some cheap shots in frustration where the refs swallowed their whistles.\nThe tone for the Cavaliers can\u2019t be put on LeBron\u2019s shoulders, he made great passes out a little high but still good enough to convert on. The entire Cavalier\u2019s team has to come to grips with that loss. What the rest of the Cavalier\u2019s have to realize is that LeBron has two Championship rings already, it is up to the \u201cothers\u201d to make their own statement on the game themselves. The \u201cothers\u201d have to want the championship for themselves and not ride his coat tails to get one. I thought he should have shot those shots but maybe he saw something the rest of us didn\u2019t. He may be kicking himself for this one, but that is something that he will need to move on from and try to get at least one more game. It has been said by everyone that no one can win coming from three down. No one has but maybe Cleveland can who knows.\nHere\u2019s to hoping there is at least one more good game played before all contact sports cease until football begins in the early fall.\nPrevious Previous post: Tough Relationship Conversation\nNext Next post: Warriors Green Suspended",

        "raw_content": "Tag: love and caring\nWelcoming Marriage Blessings \u2013\nVery Welcoming and Thankful of Marital Blessings\nThese are the words that I speak to myself when I feel run down from different situations that a dad, husband and friend must shoulder. Jesus I need you. I need your wisdom and guidance. I need you to walk with me through this time, I have no need for you to strike the desire from me at all. I want to be able to understand and withstand the challenges that I will face going forward. I know with you in my life helping me to become a more righteous person I will succeed. I am more than just a conqueror I am a child of God. I will overcome what is thrown at me and my family and be stronger for having gone through it.\nI do wish at times that this burden I am about to share was not mine but I do not wish it to be taken away now that have it. I only ask for the strength to withstand it, the knowledge to overcome it, and the words and platform to help another who may in the future have to go through something like this.\nThere have been things that I have gone through in my life that I know were self-inflicted. I have taken things that didn\u2019t belong to me, I have sped down the highways of our state, I have said things against others. All of those acts are things that will have repercussions involved with them; meaning I will have to deal with what happens from those actions that I did. When you feel that you, yourself haven\u2019t done anything to warrant an action being placed upon you feel attacked but you don\u2019t know where the fight is coming from, so you can\u2019t really defend yourself. Well that is what it feels like when you are in love with your spouse and it is not reciprocated in the fashion that you send it out. Here is more background on this type of issue. Everyone has a certain way of giving and receiving love. Everyone does whether you realize it or not you do. Knowing that and moving forward with the conversation say you are trying to make sure that your spouse feels loved across the entire spectrum. From this vantage point you feel accomplished and confident that you are putting the correct vibes out into the world to receive hopefully what you need from your spouse. OK here is where it gets sticky at. Even though you thought the love that you sent out was self-explanatory, what you expect to get back may not match what you sent out. The reason for this I have found is that your spouse has a different way of expressing their love towards you. Even though you send everything out; the gifts, acts of service, the conversation and words of affirmation, the affection and physical touch, and quality time. They may only need a couple of those to feel loved. Well say you need words of affirmation but are not getting them from your spouse. A conversation needs to happen same thing with any of the other languages of love that you need. I am a person who likes to spend quality time and show affection and physical touch with my spouse. Well my spouse likes for acts of service to be performed, meaning helping with the boys, cooking and cleaning and getting to those things that she cannot, and spending quality time as the second narrative for her to feel loved. Well I have sent out a lot searching for her language. Found out that she is receiving what she needs to feel loved. I on the other hand because of the problem we have may only receive a little of what I need and this over a period of time can build up and cause a rift if not talked about. I am not a relationship expert and do not claim to be at all. However, the practices that we all can do are so simple. Just having a conversation about how you have been feeling lately. The conversation should be uninterrupted and the spouse that is speaking never should be judged for those feelings. The other spouse should listen intently. Then the other spouse gets to let you know how they are feeling and you should listen intently. If there is anything that you know of that can be changed pretty quickly for your spouses benefit do so. If it will take time and some healing on your part needs to take place, then inform your spouse of it. Again allowing conversation to keep the spouse knowledgeable of your intent for the relationship.\nWe have been in a continuous loop for a while where we didn\u2019t know what the other needed to feel loved in our marriage. Now that we know there are a few difficulties that will need to be worked out. There will need to be a third-party involved at some part for myself, I know this much already. I also know now that my spouse doesn\u2019t believe. I don\u2019t believe that she doesn\u2019t want to but she really needs help to adjust her thinking from self to Christ. Once she gets there she will begin to see the wonderful grace that is given to us all. Conversation has really just begun for us but I am sure there are others out in the world that have this portion of their relationships down cold. It will take patience and planning to have this work for us.\nI know though as long as I hold out hope for us we will overcome this together. There haven\u2019t been any transgressions against the other or anything like that just an array of emotions that have gone unchecked for too long.\nThe conversations we have had are about what I need from her. The need for physical touch is what I need, however she is not a willing participant. I have found out that she is a woman who suffers from no libido or no sex drive. This is posing a challenge for me being a man who would like to have a physical relationship with his wife. There has been earnest talk about what can be done but talking to a person with this affliction proves to be very difficult. You see they don\u2019t have any understanding anymore of what this means because they themselves no longer desire it. So you can imagine the conversations that we have surrounding this issue. I have tried several times in tears to let her know my feelings. Again without a desire for it herself she really has no emotional attachment or anything to me or our now non-existent sex life.\nThe things that I have found out are very alarming surrounding the female libido.\n30% of women age 18 \u2013 44\n80% of women age 80 and older\nThe physical dips could be tied to a number of things, other than just physical desire. While for most women, the disappearance of a physical relationship could be due to a demanding lifestyle (high demand on a personal time that leaves them feeling less than rockin\u2019 in the marital bedroom). Once a pleasurable physical relationship goes out the window, it tends to make becoming physical with your spouse even more challenging to work through because negative associations can pile up from stressful encounters. The problems that we are experiencing could be because of a few of the items above that I listed. Whatever the reason you two should follow-up with another. Support one another whatever the reason now our problem is because of no sexual desire or physical touch from my wife.\nFor your issue it could be you the male of the relationship with low testosterone, erectile dysfunction, or you could be over stressed from work. Again any number issues can plague us as well. With conversation and support from one another and an adjoining life with Christ you can make a strong and righteous link back to one another again. The research which is hard to find on women is there in black and white in some of the medical journals. This is going to be a huge problem for the faithless if something is not done. Faith in each other and Christ has to be what strengthens you. I have a strong faith today, I also know that at some point I will need to go and speak with someone about the issues I am having with not having a physical relationship with my wife. The thought of it makes me second guess my strength. Being strong does not mean that we shoulder everything by ourselves, we have to be able to share our experiences. This helps us in our healing and may help someone else later.\nSo this is not a problem just for us but for our son\u2019s as well. I think constantly what to tell them if they confide in their father about such an issue. I want to have some sort of resolution for them other than just buckle up son. It is a helpless feeling that seems to have no end it really is. My spouse does not offer any conversation about our issue only saying that she just doesn\u2019t want to. This drives me crazy because it is not like I am asking for her to be physical all the time. I want the quality of what sex and being together brings to a relationship. That closeness and tenderness; all of it has dried up for now. I don\u2019t question why I am still here in the marriage because I made the vows to her and our lord and savior to hold them true. Couples there is no resource on the internet, there are only people who wish to sell you something for your spouse that probably will not work. The best efforts that I can think of have to come from within each of you and your walk with Christ. If you have not begun to walk with him and are in this situation there will be a limitless time of hopelessness. As far as the internet goes you could probably find people there to talk about the problem with. That is about it. I can tell you this to get a resolution about the problem the best person to speak with about the problem is the person in the relationship with you.\nI know it may sound very cruel and hard what I am personally going through. We all have things that we have to bear in this life; this just happens to be mine. I did not write this for sympathy but as a testimony to being made stronger to be able to be tested through this trial. You cannot give up; to give up is to admit failure, and to admit failure without having exhausted every option is just cowardice in my eyes. I will continue to work on this with my wife in hope that a resolution will surface for us. When it does we will be happy to share with the masses. I am sure for those of you that are walking in faith as I am, that you know this will not be an easy task. Saying you have faith is easy living faithful is the trial and where the blessing will come in at. Anything that is truly tested is always made stronger for it.\nThanks for reading there will be more posts on this so check back,\nAuthor arthur.postonPosted on April 11, 2016 Categories Life, RelationshipsTags Couples Strength, Endearment, love and caring, Love and Sacrifice, Marriage Sex Drive, Marrital Bond, Patience in Relationships, Relationships, Sexless Life, Sexual Marriage Passion, togetherness, Up and Down of Marriage, wedding vows",

        "raw_content": "Melania Trump Says She \"Hates To See\" Family Border Separation in Rare Policy Statement\nFirst Lady Melania Trump uncharacteristically shared her own opinion about the separation of migrant families at the U.S.-Mexico border on Sunday.\nHer statement, disseminated via her communications director Stephanie Grisham, said that \u201cMrs. Trump hates to see children separated from their families and hopes both sides of the aisle can finally come together to achieve successful immigration reform.\u201d\n\u201cShe believes we need to be a country that follows all laws, but also a country that governs with heart,\u201d the statement continued. It is rare for a first lady to speak out on administration policy. Melania Trump, who\u2019s so far been less public than her predecessors, has put children\u2019s wellbeing at the center of her agenda as first lady.\nThe first lady\u2019s statement stands somewhat in contrast to the administration\u2019s position\u2014and yet does not diverge from it entirely. On the one hand, speaking out against the separation of children from their family does conflict with the \u201czero tolerance\u201d policy put in place by Attorney General Jeff Sessions. The policy not only mandates the criminal prosecution of asylum-seekers who illegally cross the border, but also controversially requires the separation of children from their parents, which is not legally required.\nOn the other hand, however, President Donald Trump has repeatedly placed the blame of a lack of immigration reform on Democrats. By referring to the responsibility of \u201cboth sides\u201d in her statement, the first lady\u2019s position may not differ that significantly from that of her husband.\nMeanwhile, first daughter and presidential advisor Ivanka Trump, who\u2019s cast herself as the White House\u2019s champion of women and parents, continues to come under fire for her behavior amid the fervor.\nMSNBC host Mika Brzezinski slammed Ivanka Trump on Friday as \u201ctone deaf\u201d for posting photos of herself and her children on Instagram as U.S. officials continued to divide families at the border. The first daughter is \u201cmissing the mark every step of the way,\u201d Brzezinski said on Morning Joe. \u201cWe\u2019re losing a sense of who we are.\u201d\nDemocrats, for their part, have widely criticized the policy, calling it cruel and disgraceful. A growing number of Republicans have added their voice to the condemnation in recent weeks, including a variety of prominent lawmakers, former first lady Laura Bush, a conservative newspaper, and a former advisor to Trump.\nBetween April 19 and May 31 the administration has separated 1,995 children from 1,940 adults, according to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security. Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen denied responsibility for these separations, writing on Twitter on Sunday \u201cWe do not have a policy of separating families at the border. Period.\u201d",
